WILKES-BARRE Another
bank is seeking to foreclose on
property owned by a Wilkes-
Barre attorney who was charged
last week with mail fraud for al-
legedly bilking clients in an in-
vestment scheme.
Northwest Savings Bank of
Warren on Monday filed a notice
of mortgage foreclosure against
attorney An-
thony Lupas
and his wife,
Lillian, for a
loan they held
on a property
located in Buck
Township.
According to
the suit, the Lupases obtained a
loan for $74,200 in 1988. They
have failed to pay the monthly
mortgage of $651.16 since July
2011 and now owe the bank
$42,278 in principal, interest,
late charges and other fees.
The filing is the latest of sever-
al collection actions against Lu-
free interest.
Preate, in the court filing on
behalf of five plaintiffs, said Lu-
pas enticed investors with
claims that their money would
back gas drilling operations on
land in Bear Creek Township
that Lupas said was owned by
Dunmore businessman Louis
DeNaples.

DeNaples companies, once own-

Wal-Mart on Monday con-
firmed that it would discontinue
efforts to develop a store on
Wyoming Avenue inExeter.
An email from a company
spokesman said the company at-
tributed its decision to an inabil-
itytoobtainall of the permits and
approvals necessarytoproceedin

line containedinits agreement to
purchase the properties.
In particular, said the state-
mentsenttoTheTimesLeaderby
Bill Wertz, Wal-Mart director of
media relations, the company
did not obtain a Highway Occu-
pancy Permit, which was critical
to moving forward with the pro-
ject. The company remains com-

munity.
It remains unclear whether the
Bentonville, Ark.-based mega re-
tailer intends to pursue develop-
ment of a store at another West
Sidelocation. Anattempttoreach
Wertz for more information was
unsuccessful.
Wal-Mart had been eyeing con-
struction on a 15.9-acre parcel
along Wyoming Avenue, part of

bile home park. But issues with
zoning, traffic and concerns from
competing businesses in Exeter
and surrounding communities
had been raised over the past
three years.

Borough Council President De-
nise Adams.
Its revenue for the school, its
revenue for the borough, its jobs,
its a place to shop (thats been

DES MOINES, Iowa Iowa
Gov. Terry Branstad called Mon-
day for a congressional investiga-
tion into how what he called a
smear campaign against the
meat product commonly called
pink slime got started.
The company that makes the
product, SouthDakota-basedBeef
Products Inc.,
announced last
week that it
would stop pro-
duction at
plants in Iowa,
Kansas and
Texas amid
public outcry.
There are no precise numbers
on how prevalent the product
knownintheindustryaslean, fine-
ly textured beef is, but past esti-
mates have ranged as high as 70
percent; one industry official esti-
mated it was in at least half of the
ground meat and burgers in the
United States.
The phrase pink slime has ap-
pearedinthemediaat least sincea
critical 2009 New York Times re-
port. Celebrity chef Jamie Oliver
has railed against it.
But Houston resident Bettina
Siegelstarted an online petition
asking Agriculture Secretary Tom
Vilsack to halt use of pink slime
in school food.
We have a smear campaign go-
ing on against a product that is
healthy andsafe, Branstadsaidat
his weekly news conference. If
they get by with this, what other
food products are they going to at-
tack next?

Ground beef processor AFA Foods said Monday that it is filing for
Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection and selling its assets after the public
outcry over pink slime derailed its efforts to save its already strug-
gling business. A spokesman said the controversy over the ammonia-
treated filler has dramatically reduced demand for all ground beef.

FORTY FORT In an unex-
pected move, borough council
on a 4-3 vote Monday approved
the appointment of Police Chief
Fred Lahousky as interim bor-
oughmanager.
Thesixcouncil members split
their vote on the interim posi-
tionandMayor BoydHoat broke
the tie by affirming Lahouskys
impromptu appointment. The
motion to appoint an interim
managerwasnotonthecouncils
agenda, and an interim manag-
ers job description or salary pa-
rameters were not discussed be-
fore the vote. It was uncertain
when Lahousky would assume
his role of interimmanager.
I serve at the pleasure of
council, Lahousky said when
asked if he was open to the ap-
pointment. Lahousky said he
hadnotdiscussedthepositionor
his desiretofill thepositionwith
any council member before the
vote.
Mondays council agenda con-
tained motions to adopt the job
descriptionfor a permanent bor-
ough manager position and an-
other to approve a proposal ad-
vertisingforthepermanentposi-
tion.
I have severe reservations
about this proposal, said Coun-
cilman Rick Camus, who voted
no on the motion along with fel-
lowcouncilmen Frank Michaels
and Joe Chacke. The chief
hasnt even had a thorough op-
portunity to get a handle our po-
lice department. Imafraidwere
putting too much on this mans
plate.
Council unanimously praised
Lahouskyfor his performancein
his positionas police chief.
Inother business, council vot-
ed to adopt a Resolution of Con-
gratulations to resident Ryan
Kozich for earning his Eagle
Scout rank. Kozich is a senior at
Wyoming Valley West High
School andplanstoattendMary-
wood University in the fall to
pursue a degree in music appre-
ciation.

ing since first grade, said Koz-
ich. Scoutinghas taught me life
skills and how to deal with peo-
ple in many different situations
from school to the workplace. I
feel well prepared to take these

The surprise appointment is
an interim one. It attracts

By STEVEN FONDO
Times Leader Correspondent
DALLAS TWP. The Dallas
School Board received an update
Monday on the new crisis man-
agement plan, whichwas spurred
by the natural gas industrys pres-
ence in the area.
Board member Fred Parry said
the plan is complete and is await-
ing review from local and county
emergency management agen-
cies. He said the comprehensive
planis still aworkinprogress, but
it covers most everything one
could imagine.
Parents were most concerned
about what plan of action the
boardwouldtake inthe event of a
natural gas leak due to the pres-
ence of two current and one im-
pending pipelines locate near the
campus.
Parry said that, depending on
the situation, students may need
to stay inside the buildings or be
moved from one building to an-
other during a natural gas emer-
gency, but transportation by bus
would be a last-ditch effort.
He said ventilation would be
closedoff inthe buildings to keep
the natural gas outside.
Superintendent Frank Galicki
said the arrangement also fea-
tures plans that include Miser-
icordia University, Lake-Lehman
School District schools and Gate
of Heaven Catholic Church as
possible evacuation sites.
He also said those agreements
are reciprocal in case those facil-
ities should need an emergency
evacuation site in the Dallas cam-
pus.
In another matter, two groups
from Dallas High School that
qualified to compete on the na-
tional level performedfor theDal-
las School Board on Monday
night.
Students from the districts
LifeSmarts teamexplainedtothe
board a little about the group and
the competition that awaits its
members in Philadelphia at the
end of the month.
LifeSmarts is a program that
was foundedbytheNational Con-
sumers League in which teens
compete in academic contests in
five subject areas healthandsci-
ence, environment, personal fi-
nance, consumer rights and re-
sponsibilities and technology.
The five team members, Gates
Palissery, Amber Habib, Sara Hu-
dak, Samuel Reinert and team
captain Decklan Cerza, won the
state competition held in March
andfoundthat theyscoredhigher
than three other states winning
teams California, Wisconsin
and Minnesota.
The team, which was formed
by now-board president and re-
tired teacher Catherine Wega,
has been to states twice before.
The board also enjoyed a per-
formance from seniors Sarah
Pomfret and Angelina Hoidra,
members of the high schools fo-
rensics team.
The pair qualified for the na-
tional competition earlier this
year for a performance of The
Miracle Worker. They will com-
pete inBaltimore, Md., at the end
of May.
In the dramatic duo category,
students perform a dramatic
work but cannot look at or touch
each other.
Inother business, the boardap-
proved a calendar change to add
June 13 and 14 to the academic
year. Galicki said this was be-
cause of the campus usage as an
evacuation site during last years
flooding.
The board also approved the
purchase of computer equipment
coming off lease for $39,800 per
year for five years beginning July
1.
The board hired Mike Zurek as
assistant boys volleyball coach
with a stipend of $664.

The next Dallas School Board
meeting will be at 7 p.m. April 9 in
the administration building.
W H AT S N E X T
The vote came after 15 months
of meetings, hearings and media
coverage of the proposal to re-
zone land along Wyoming Ave-
nue fromM-2(light industrial) to
B-3 (commercial) designation,
for its intended development by
Wal-Mart.
Leading the charge against
construction of a Walmart or any
big-box store in the borough was
the grassroots organization Exe-
ter First. Major concerns were
traffic congestion, hurting small
businesses inthe community and
ruining the small-town atmo-
sphere.
Im obviously very pleased,
said Exeter First member Mary
Pat Coleman.
But it was actually Wyoming
that put a kibosh on it. Route 11
runs through Wyoming, Exeter,
West Pittston it wasnt just an
Exeter issue, Coleman said.
Wyoming borough Mayor Bob
Boyer said officials there werent
necessarilyopposedtoaWalmart
in Exeter, but he and council did
agree with traffic study recom-
mendations that he believes
proved too costly for Wal-Mart to
swallow.
It wasnt Wyoming borough
that stopped them. But we were
in agreement with traffic study
recommendations, Boyer said.
A traffic study necessary to ob-
tain a Highway Occupancy Per-
mit from PennDOT recommend-
ed reconstruction of three inter-
sections along Wyoming Avenue
in Wyoming, he said.
The study recommended re-
configuring intersections at
Eighth Street, Sixth Street and
First Street. The major point of
contention apparently was the
Sixth Street intersection, where
about two blocks of on-street
parking would have had to be
eliminatedor cuttingintothetree
lawn would have been necessary
to accommodate more lanes,
Boyer said.
Thosetwoblocksareinthebor-
oughs business district and busi-
ness owners wouldnt want to
lose the parking. Residents op-
posed cutting into the tree lawn,
Boyer said.
Boyer estimated it would have
cost Wal-Mart between $1.5 mil-
lionand$2 millionjust toreconfi-
gure all three intersections.
Exeter businessman Dave Voi-
tek called the overall outcome a
victory for the community.
I think it would have caused a
lot of traffic congestion in the ar-
ea. We cant evenget onthe street
as it is now. I think our communi-
ty is better preserved because of
this, said Voitek, owner of Voi-
teks TVandAppliances, whichis
just a couple thousand feet from
the proposed site.
Voitek doubts his business
would have lost many customers
to a Walmart, but he thinks other
businesses would have, especial-
ly locally owned supermarkets.
But Exeter resident Lester
Nothnagel said he thinks more
competition would be good for
the consumer.
Competition would have
helped lower food prices. Maybe
some of these grocery stores
would have started dropping
their prices, said Nothnagel,
who was just returning from the
Walmart in Wilkes-Barre Town-
ship.
Having to drive all the way to
Wilkes-Barre or Pittston is a
wasteof gas. It wouldhavehelped
out a lot if Walmart came here,
andpeople without cars wouldnt
have to take a bus all the way out
there, Nothnagel said.

traffic problems in the borough.

Following record-smashing rainfall
and a historic Susquehanna River flood
level last September, upgrades to the
National Weather Service radar system
are expectedtoimprove severe weather
forecasting in Northeastern Pennsylva-
nia.
Doppler radar is being enhanced at
the Binghamton, N.Y., stationthis week
with dual polarization technology that
will give forecasters better information
about heavy rainfall in flooding events,
hail detection in thunderstorms and
even recognize precipitation as rain,
snowor ice, according to a news release
from the National Oceanic and Atmo-
spheric Administration.
In some situations, the technology
can detect the presence of airborne tor-
nado debris, giving forecasters confir-
mation of a tornado as it happens, in-
stead of sending a meteorologist in the
field to inspect damage and toppled
trees days after.
This is the most significant upgrade
to the nations weather radar network
since Doppler radar was first installed
in the early 1990s and is a significant
step toward us becoming weather
ready, said Jack Hayes, director of the
National Weather Service, in the news
release.
Installation of the dual polarization
technology to the Binghamtons Dop-
pler radar systembegan Monday and is
expected to be completed by early next
week.
Doppler radar provides forecasters
information on precipitation intensity,
direction and speed.
Dual polarization technology adds
new information about the size and
shape of airborne objects, which will
improve estimates of how much rain is
falling, improving flash flood detection
and warnings.
During winter weather, dual polari-
zation radar can tell the difference be-
tween rain, snow and ice that will pro-
vide forecasters a much better idea of
what type of precipitation to expect at
ground level, the news release says.
Last year, the Binghamton weather
station recorded 60 inches of rain at the
Wilkes-Barre/Scranton International
Airport, making 2011 the wettest year
on record. Average rainfall is 38.26
inches.
Tropical Storm Lee dumped 5 to 10
inches of rain across Luzerne County,
causing the Susquehanna River in
Wilkes-Barre to rise to 42.66 feet on
Sept. 9, smashingthe recordof 40.9feet
on June 24, 1972.
Area will soon get more accurate severe weather forecasts
Improvements are being made at
the Binghamton, N.Y., station, with

Luzerne County Council members
agreed to remove a clause in the pro-
posedethics code that temporarily bans
council members from voting if they vi-
olate the charter by interfering with
day-to-day operations.
Council members agreed during a
worksessionMonday that the provision
would be unfair to citizens who put
elected officials in of-
fice tomake decisions.
The proposed code
contained a 30-day
voting suspension for
the first offense, a 60-
day suspension for the
second offense and a
120-day suspension
for the third.
County Manager Robert Lawton said
council members found in violation
could abstain from voting on specific
matters associated with their offense.
The council also rejected a recom-
mendation from the ethics commission
to up the fine for violations from $1,000
to $3,000.
The fine is $100 for the first violation,
$200 for the second and $300 for the
third.
Most council members said the exist-
ing amounts are a deterrent, noting the
council members receive $8,000 per
year.
Council Chairman Jim Bobeck said
council is keeping the punishment of
censure, or a public reading of an of-
fense at a council meeting.
The ethics commission appointed by
council decides whether violations have
occurred and polices the entire code.
Bobeck said the embarrassment of
censurelikelywouldbethemost painful
for violators.
In my opinion, that is far worse than
any monetary punishment because its a
public reprimand, Bobeck said.
Council members alsoagreedtoadda
clause to the code prohibiting county
staff solicitors from privately represent-
County body revisits parts of ethics code
Clause would have temporarily
banned members who interfered
with operations from voting.

of Gerald Riviello of

District Attorney Stefanie Salavantis
estimates there are 29 gangs in the
county recruiting kids from high
schools and elementary schools.
Jim Marinello, ad-
junct criminal justice
professor at Kings
College, said Monday
that if thats true and
he has no reason to
doubt the district attorney these are
dangerous times in Northeastern
Pennsylvania.
Those kids who do not have the
structure in their homes act in ways
that get the approval of their fellow
gang members rather than their par-
ents, Salavantis said. When children
grow up without an understanding of
right fromwrong, andwithout the safe-
ty and security of the family structure,
it is very easy for them to lose their
way.
Salavantis delivered her remarks at
the Luzerne County Council of Repub-
lican Women 2012 Women in Politics
Breakfast over the weekend at the
Best Western Genetti Hotel & Confer-
ence Center.
Salavantis said neglected children
tend to look for structure outside the
family.
Sadly, in our county they look to
gangs rather than to mom or dad, she
said.
The district attorney said she has
madecombatinggangs a priorityinher
office. She said data has come fromthe
state police at Hazleton and the FBI.
Hazleton city and Hanover Township
have formedgang task forces andmore
are coming, she said.
Salavantis said that in addition to in-
creasing law enforcement, she has ad-
vocated the passage of tougher laws
against gang participation and related
crimes.
But Salavantis said emphasis needs
to be placedonending the systemic de-
valuation of the family.
If we dont, crime will continue to
increase, gangs will continue to flour-
ish and children will be raised without
a strong moral compass pointing them
in a positive direction, she said. As
district attorney, I have seen firsthand
the dangers that occur when the role of
family is marginalized.

WILKES-BARRE The dar-
ing theft of copper pipe and
transmission lines from the
WVIA broadcast tower on Pe-
nobscot Mountain and the dam-
agethat was left behindwas esti-
matedtobe $190,000, WVIAEn-
gineer Joe Glynn said Monday.
Three people accused in the
brazentheft last August were re-
cently sentenced in Luzerne
County Court.
Judge Lisa Gelb sentenced
Christopher Casazza, 22, of
Mountain Top, Jessica Herrold,
27, of Wapwallopen, and Barry
Seiwell, 21, of Nuangola, to one-
year probationeachandordered
the trio to pay a percentage of
$5,000 in restitution.
Casazza, Herrold and Seiwell
pleaded guilty to charges of
theft, criminal mischief and de-
fiant trespass before they were
sentenced.
Two other co-defendants, Do-
nalda Loucks, 42, of Nuangola,
who is Seiwells mother, and
MatthewMeyers, 24, of Wapwal-
lopen, are scheduled to appear
in court next week.
Police in Fairviewand Hanov-
er townships alleged Casazza,
Herrold, Seiwell, Loucks and
Meyers conspired to steal 400
feet of 6 1/8-inch diameter cop-
per pipe, about 250 feet of 2
-inch copper transmission
line, 120 feet of 3 1/8-inch cop-
per and brass couplings from
WVIAs programming tower be-
tween Aug. 4 and 18, according
to the criminal complaints.
Authorities said the insula-
tion was stripped from the cop-
per wire, and it and the brass
couplings were sold at scrap
yards in Hazleton and Hazle
Township.
Glynn said the copper pipe
and transmission lines were in-
stalled in 2007 on the tower that
stands about 800 feet tall. The
pipeandlineswerenot damaged
when fire ripped through the
transmission building in 2010.
They had to climb the tower
to steal the lines, Glynn said.
About 130 feet up on the tower
is what was stolen.
Glynn said each section of the
copper pipe and transmission
line connected by brass cou-
plings weighs 130 pounds.
Dropping the pipe and lines
damaged the tower and trans-
mission building for WVIA-FM
radio programming, Glynn said.
Glynn said WVIA-TV pro-
gramming was not impacted,
but the radio station was off the
air for about an hour until re-
pairs were made.
Id say the total damage was
about $190,000, between what
had to be replaced and the dam-
age by dropping the (FM radio)
transmission line and tower.

Buenos Aires, Argentina. The protest marks the 30th anniversary of the Argentine and

KINGSTON It sounds like
peanuts, but when there are 74
peanuts (possibly 76), maybe its
worth gathering them.
The state Treasury regularly
tries to reunite rightful owners
with a boatload of unclaimed
property, and issued a press re-
lease Tuesday noting $1.3 million
of that belongs to places of wor-
ship and affiliated organiza-
tions. Includedonthat list: Bish-
op OReilly High School in King-
ston.
Bishop OReilly was closed by
the Diocese of Scranton in 2007
and reopened as Good Shepherd
Academy, an elementary school.
The Treasurys searchable on-
line database lists 74 Kmart gift
certificates worth under $100,
that belong to Bishop OReilly
at 316 Maple St., Kingston the
schools address.
Two more gift certificates are
listed as owned by Biship OReil-
ly and Boshop OReilly (none
of the variations includes an
apostrophe in OReilly). A sepa-
rate listing for Bishop OReilly
High School shows an un-
claimed stock dividend from
AT&T, also for under $100.
Topreserve some degree of pri-
vacy, the state lists amounts as
over or under, Treasury spokes-
woman Elizabeth Foose said
Monday.
Foose said the Treasury runs
the unclaimed property program
under state lawin an effort to get
money and assets back into the
hands of those who have rightful
claim, but may simply not know
the property exists.
After the assets have been dor-
mant for a certainamount of time
usually five years -- the holder of
the property turns it over to the
Treasury, which can turn it over
to the rightful owner, if he or she
claims it and can prove they are
the rightful owner.
The vast majority of unclaimed
property is intangible, things
like dividends, rebates or refunds
from companies or like the
Bishop OReilly gift certificates,
Foose said.
A small part of the unclaimed
property is physical property,
which is stored in a 1930s-era
vault in Harrisburg. Foose said it
is believed to be the worlds sec-
ond largest such vault 65 feet
by 75 feet -- made of about 400
tons of steel.
The online database also lists
one unclaimed item for Queen of
Peace Church in Harveys Lake,
described as Stock in lieu of
and worth under $100. Queen
of Peace has also been closed for
many years.
We were not aware of this, but
certainly will look into it, said
Diocesan Spokesman Bill Genel-
lo on Monday.

DORRANCE TWP. Button
Oil Co. of Mountain Top re-
ceived another favorable ruling
in its attempt to develop a pro-
pane tank depot off I-81, this
time fromthe township board of
supervisors.
The supervisors on Monday
night approved a reverse subdi-
vision proposal for the site, en-
abling Button to combine two
lots into one 11.29-acre tract for
the purposes of further develop-
ing the depot.
The action, according to Alan
Snelson, zoning officer, comes
on the heels of a March ruling by
District Judge Ron Swank of
Mountain Top, in which Swank
ruled against the township in its
zoning fight. Snelson said But-
ton has already moved storage
tanks onto the site after Swanks
ruling..
The Planning Commission
has also approved Buttons sub-
division but there are still issues
that remain. Snelson said he has
extended by another month the
time Button has to submit a land
development plan and James
Schneider, solicitor, added But-
ton must still get approval from
the Pennsylvania Department of
Transportation for a highway oc-
cupancy permit.
Schneider called the issuance
of the permit by PennDOT, a
major issue in establishing the
depot.
In another land-use matter,
the supervisors voted to grant a
deed revision, which was recom-
mended by the planning com-
mission, to allow Mallory Mylet
to construct a house on a lot in
her subdivsion. They also con-
curred with the state Depart-
ment of Environmental Protec-
tion on the issue of a component
2 planning module.
The supervisors approved a
$250 donation to the lock-in pro-
gram conducted by Crestwood
High School on graduation
night in June.
They were informed by Penn-
DOTthat the township has been
allocated $91,686.25 in liquid
fuels money for 2012.
Also, the annual spring clea-
nup for township residents only
has been scheduled on May 5, 7
a.m. to 2 p.m., at the recycling
building off Blue Ridge Trail.
Items suchas car tires, batteries,
white appliances and other

ed. A fee schedule prevails for

No winners identified yet
T
he record-breaking Mega Millions
jackpot climbed to $656 million on
Monday, though no one holding one of
the three winning tickets has come
forward yet to claim a share of the
prize, officials said.
Three tickets one each in Kansas,
Illinois and Maryland will split the
jackpot, which officials said Monday
was higher than previously estimated.
It is now at $656 million, after sales
from the 44 state lotteries were totaled,
up from the previously reported $640
million. That means each winner
would receive roughly $218 million
apiece before taxes.
Winners in all three states have sev-
eral months in the case of Kansas, a
year to claim the prize. Both Mary-
land and Kansas allow winners to re-
main anonymous, though the winner in

Family wants federal probe
The parents of a black teenager who
was fatally shot by a neighborhood
watch volunteer asked federal officials
Monday to expand their investigation
to look at the prosecutor who recused
himself in the case.
Trayvon Martins parents allege in a
letter sent to the U.S. Department of
Justice that State Attorney Norm Wolf-
inger met with the Sanford police chief
within hours of the teens death and
that together they overruled a detec-
tives recommendation that the shoo-
ter, George Zimmerman, be charged
with manslaughter. The letter claims a
lead investigator filed an affidavit stat-

Court OKs strip searches
Jailers may perform invasive strip
searches on people arrested even for
minor offenses, an ideologically divid-
ed Supreme Court ruled Monday, the
conservative majority declaring that
security trumps privacy in an often
dangerous environment.
In a 5-4 decision, the court ruled
against a New Jersey man who was
strip searched in two county jails fol-
lowing his arrest on a warrant for an
unpaid fine that he had, in reality, paid.
The decision resolved a conflict
among lower courts about how to
balance security and privacy. Prior to
the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks, lower
courts generally prohibited routine
strip searches for minor offenses. In
recent years, however, courts have
allowed jailers more discretion to main-
tain security, and the high court ruling
ratified those decisions.

31 killed in jet crash
A plane that crashed Monday into a
snowy field in Siberia, killing 31 peo-
ple, appears to have been improperly
de-iced, but there was no indication
that negligence caused the crash, Rus-
sias civil aviation chief said. Investiga-
tors said evidence so far suggests a
technical failure as the cause.
The twin-engine turboprop belong-
ing to UTair crashed shortly after take-
off from the snowy western Siberian
city of Tyumen with 43 people aboard.
Twelve people have been hospitalized
in serious condition.
The state news agency RIA-Novosti

that the treatment of the plane with
de-icing agents was not done at the
necessary level.

OAKLAND, Calif. A 43-year-old
former student of a small Christian uni-
versity in California opened fire at the
school, killing at least seven people and
setting off an intense, chaotic manhunt
that ended with his capture at a nearby
shopping center, authorities said.
Police Chief Howard Jordan said One
L. Goh is in custody after he surren-
dered about an hour after the shooting
at Oikos University, which also wound-
ed three. Jordan said police have reco-
vered the weapon they believe he used
during the rampage.
Its going to take us a fewdays to put
the pieces together, Jordan said. We
do not have a motive.
Soon after the shooting, heavily
armed officers swarmed the school in a
large industrial park near the Oakland
airport and, for at least anhour, believed
the gunman could still be inside.
Art Richards said he was driving by
the university on his way to pick up a
friend when he spotted a woman hiding
in the bushes and pulled over. When he
approached her, she said, Imshot and
showed him her arm.
She had a piece of her arm hanging
out, Richards said, noting that she was
wounded near the elbow.
As police arrived, Richards said he
heard 10 gunshots coming from inside
the building. The female victim told
himthat she sawthe gunman shoot one
person point-blank in the chest and one
in the head.
Tashi Wangchuk, whose wife attend-
ed the school and witnessed the shoot-
ing, said he was told by police that the
gunman first shot a woman at the front
desk, then continued shooting random-
ly in classrooms.
Television footage showed bloodied
victims on stretchers being loaded into
ambulances. Several bodies covered in
sheets were laid out on a patch of grass
at the school.

APPLETON, Wis. Rick
Santorum says a fight at the
GOPconventionover the partys
presidential nominee would be
energizing for the party.
Campaigning in Wisconsin
Monday, Santorum pressed his
argument that front-runner Mitt
Romney isnt the strongest Re-
publican to go
up against
President Ba-
rack Obama in
the fall.
The former
Pennsylvania
senator says a
convention
floor fight over
which candidate should be Oba-
mas general election opponent
would be a fascinating display
of open democracy and would
encourage more Republican vot-
ers to participate.
Santorum is far behind Rom-
ney in the race for the conven-
tion delegates who will choose
the nominee. He has acknowl-
edged having little chance of
winning the needed 1,144 dele-
gates but notes Romney doesnt
have them yet either.
Romney is favored to win Wis-
consins GOP primary Tuesday.
In Green Bay, Romney faced a
tough question about his Mor-
mon faith while campaigning.
ARonPaul supporter, 28-year-
old Bret Hatch, asked Romney
whether he agreed with a pas-
sage from the Book of Mormon
that describes a cursing of peo-
ple with a skin of blackness.
Romneys staff tookaway the mi-
crophone before the Green Bay
man could read the passage.
Imsorry, were just not going
to have a discussion about reli-
gioninmy view, but if youhave a
question Ill be happy to answer
your question, Romney said
Monday.
Hatch then asked whether
Romney thought it was a sin for
interracial couples to have chil-
dren.
No. Next question, Romney
responded curtly.
Hatch was citing verses from
Nephi in the Book of Mormon
whichdescribes acursingof peo-

ISLAMABADAPakistani court sen-
tenced Osama bin Ladens three widows
and two of his daughters to 45 days in
prison on Monday for illegally living in
the country, ordering them deported
when the sentence ends, their lawyer
said.
Withcredit for time served, the women
and several of their other children will
leave Pakistan later this month, said law-
yer Mohammed Amir Khalil. They have
been in detention since American com-
mandos killed bin Laden in a large house
in the Pakistani town of Abbottabad on
May 2, but they were formally charged
with immigration offenses only last
month. The Americans left the women
and children behind in the house after
they flew off with bin Ladens corpse.
The women may have information
about howbin Laden managed to remain
undetected for close to 10 years after the
Sept. 11, 2001 attacks in the U.S., despite
being the subject of a massive interna-
tional manhunt. The youngest, 30-year-
old Yemeni wife Amal Ahmed Abdel-Fa-
tah al-Sada, has told investigators bin La-
den lived in five houses while on the run
and fathered four children, two of whom
wereborninPakistani government hospi-
tals.
Pakistani officials havesaidtheyhadno
ideatheal-Qaidachief was inAbbottabad,
something many in Washington found
hard to believe because his compound
was locatedclose toPakistans equivalent
of the West Point military academy. The
U.S. has not foundevidence indicatingse-
nior Pakistani officials knew of bin La-
dens whereabouts, but said he must have
had some form of support network.
Two of the widows are Saudi andone is
Yemeni. Khalil saidYemenhas consented
to the return, but he is still in discussions
with Saudi officials. Saudi Arabia
stripped bin Laden of his citizenship in
1994 because of his verbal attacks against
the Saudi royal family.
Al-Sada was overjoyed to finally be
heading home, said her brother, Zakaria
al-Sada, who has been campaigning for
her release.

AMARILLO, Texas A JetBlue Air-
ways captain charged with disrupting a
Las Vegas-bound flight after he left the
cockpit screaming about religion and ter-
rorists should remain in federal custody
without bond, prosecutors told a judge
Monday.
Clayton Osbon smiled at his wife and
JetBlue employees who watched his first
federal court appearancefromthegallery,
but did not speak other than to tell the
judge he understood his rights and the
charges against him.
Osbon, 49, was not askedtoenter aplea
duringthe10-minutehearing. U.S. Magis-
trate Judge Clinton E. Averitte is expect-
edtorule onthe bondissue at a detention
hearing scheduled for Thursday.
Osbon has remained in Amarillo since
the plane he was piloting last Tuesday
was forcedtomakeanemergencylanding
there following his bizarre unraveling on
Flight 191. Passengers wrestled Osbon to
the ground after witnesses said he ran
throughthe cabinyellingabout Jesus and
al-Qaida, and then restrained him with
seat belt extenders.
He was taken to an Amarillo hospital
for a medical evaluation and remained
there for several days. It was not immedi-
ately clear where he was being held Mon-
day.
Osbonworenormal clothes inthecour-
troom, dressed in a green shirt and baggy
green pants. He was shackled at the feet.
His attorney, Dean Roper, declined to
comment after the hearing.
Connye Osbon hurried to a waiting car
outsidethecourthousefollowingher hus-
bands hearing. She released a statement
through the airline Sunday saying the in-
flight outburst wasnt intentionally vio-
lent toward anyone and asked the media
to respect their familys privacy.

WILKES-BARRE A city man
charged with four other men in a
case in which police say they kid-
napped and tortured a woman in
December 2010 pleaded guilty
Monday to a related charge.
Lee Bernsdorf, 27, entered the
plea to a charge of criminal con-
spiracy before county Judge Tina
Polachek Gartley.
Charges of aggravated assault,
criminal conspiracy, false impris-
onment and reckless endanger-
ment were withdrawn Monday.
Bernsdorf will be sentencedon
May 18, Polachek Gartley said.
He faces a maximumof five years
in prison.
Court papers say Bernsdorf,
Young Williams, 40, Ronald Cot-
tle, 36, Kevin Lewis, 25, and Tim-
othy Buckner, 34, all of Wilkes-
Barre, were charged in the inci-
dent in which prosecutors say
Joan Rosengrant was punched,
stunned with a Taser and had
boiling water poured on her feet
on Dec. 30, 2010.
The five men were charged af-
ter Rosengrant reported she was
forced into Bernsdorfs Monroe
Street home and beaten.
Police said the men originally
approached Rosengrant about an
ex-boyfriend who was incarcerat-
ed and allegedly robbed one of
the men.
Rosengrant later told police
Bernsdorf was present duringthe
beatingbut didnothingtostopit.
She suffered lacerations, burns
and an orbital fracture as a result
of the beating, court papers say.
Williams, Cottle, Lewis and
Buckner are tentatively sched-
uled to stand trial on related
charges beginning on April 16.
Bernsdorf was released on bail
from the county prison Monday,
pending any other detainers, and
ordered to participate in the
countys DayReportingProgram.

WILKES-BARRE A man
charged with a month-long
crime spree that ranged from
the theft of a $2.49 hoagie to
the armed robbery of a conve-
nience store was sentenced
Monday to 30 to 60 months in
state prison.
Eric Lee Jasiulewicz, 30,
whose last known address was
Hanover Village, Hanover
Township, was sentenced on
three theft-related charges and
one count of robbery by Lu-
zerne County Senior Judge Jo-
seph Augello.
Jasiulewicz pleaded guilty to
the charges in January and re-
ceived 543 days credit for time
already served in prison.
Augello ordered Jasiulewicz
to pay $778 in restitution.
According to court papers,
the crime spree began on Sept.
5, 2010, when Luzerne Borough
police were called to the Fuel
On store on Main Street for an
armed robbery.
Two store clerks said a man,
later identified as Jasiulewicz,
came into the store, ap-
proached the counter with a
coffee, demanded money and
displayed a handgun.
Jasiulewicz fled with an un-
determined amount of money.
Four days later, police said,
Jasiulewicz entered Gerritys
Supermarket on Union Street
in Pringle and put a $2.49 hoa-
gie in his back pocket.
Police said Jasiulewicz tried
to leave the store without pay-
ing for the hoagie when two
loss-prevention officers ap-
proached him.
Then, on Sept. 24, police
said Jasiulewicz and two other
people conspired to take $220
worth of lobster, steak, paper
towels and toilet paper from
the Weis Markets in Dallas.
Three days later, police said,
Jasiulewicz was living in a
home on West Luzerne Avenue
in Larksville when he moved
out without any notification.
A landlord told police Jasiu-
lewicz took with him a new
washer and dryer, valued at
$634, that the landlord pur-
chased for the unit that Jasiu-
lewicz was not authorized to
take.
String of crimes brings jail term
Eric L. Jasiulewicz displayed
a handgun in one robbery,
police say.

WILKES-BARRE A Dallas
man charged in a March 2011
towing incident that killed 55-
year-old Denise Polinchak will
stand trial on related charges in
September, a county judge said
Monday.
Robert Wickham, 56, was
charged after Plains Township
police said he was intoxicated
when he was called to move
Polinchaks vehicle from a park-
ing lot on East Mountain Boule-
vard.
Police said Wickham, a tow
truck operator for Herberts
Towing, was dispatched to the
parking lot when Polinchak had
trouble with her car. Police say
Polinchak was hit by a car door
and struck her head on the
pavement.
Attorneys will argue any re-
quests in the case on Aug. 10,
Judge Joseph Sklarosky Jr. said.
The trial will begin with jury
selection on Sept. 10, Sklarosky
said. Wickham is represented by
attorney Thomas Marsilio.
WILKES-BARRE A Lu-
zerne County judge removed
himself from the homicide trial
of a man charged with killing
another man during a game of
poker in February 2011.
Judge David Lupas, who had
been presiding over the trial of
Jaboar Stanley, of East Mine
Street, Hazleton, recused him-
self from the case Monday.
Lupas gave no reason for the
recusal.
Stanley is tentatively sched-
uled to stand trial on April 16.
Lupas asked that another judge
be assigned to the case.
Stanley, 30, is charged with
shooting 20-year-old Emmanuel
J. Felix on Feb. 15 inside their
apartment after fighting over a
game of poker.

I think Gov. Romneys a little out
of touch.
Joe Biden
The U.S. vice president in a pre-recorded interview
that aired Sunday on CBS Face the Nation
criticized Republican presidential hopeful Mitt
Romney for seemingly failing to understand what ordinary middle-class
people are thinking about and are concerned about.
Care management cuts
will hurt states elderly
I
am very concerned about the Corbett
administrations impending cuts to the
states elder care funding.
Department of Public Welfare Secretary
Gary D. Alexander apparently is planning
to eliminate aging care managers. Alexan-
der was given authority to make cuts from
the state budget without legislative over-
sight.
I am very concerned about the negative
impact the elimination of care manage-
ment will make by discontinuing consis-
tent nursing oversight and fragmenting
services to seniors. Seniors and their fam-
ilies rely on the Area Agency on Aging as a
one-stop resource for care management.
The AAA should not be removed as waiver
care managers.
Participants in the aging waiver typically
have multiple and complex medical prob-
lems and impairments that limit their
ability to be independent. They also often
have cognitive impairments, making them
a much more vulnerable population than
most of the adults with disabilities served
in many of the other Medicaid waiver
programs.
Gov. Tom Corbett previously promised
that he would make protecting seniors a
top priority and that he would do every-
thing he could to make Pennsylvania more
senior-friendly. This proposed rule-mak-
ing fails to live up to either promise. Aging
care cuts should be excluded from the Act
22 expedited regulations.

Reader believes writer

egarding the letter to the editor from

Writer takes issue with
use of word Democrat
I
am writing about a small matter, per-
haps. (You decide.) In recent years Re-
publicans took to calling the Democratic
Party the Democrat Party. It was done, I
believe, to gain some kind of political
advantage. (You supply the motive.)
It is, however, poor use of the language.
The word Democrat is a noun, not an
adjective. One doesnt modify a noun (par-
ty) with a noun but with an adjective. It is,
therefore, the Democratic Party. A person
should want to be grammatical if only to
appear intelligent.
It is true that incorrect usage eventually
can be granted acknowledgement in, say, a
new edition of Websters Collegiate Dictio-
nary. Democrat might become an ad-
jective in time through such a process. I
would hope that editors would see through
a cynical attempt to manipulate.

Transportation legislation
has a long way to go
A
cross the United States, mayors, con-
struction firms, commuters and transit
workers are watching and hoping that
the federal transportation bill finally will
pass. Members of the U.S. House of Repre-
sentatives had been scrambling to make
changes to the current draft. Word is that
theyll reverse the unpopular decision
ending the dedicated funding for public
transportation begun under President
Ronald Reagan.
Thats a great start, but it doesnt go far
enough to address the serious flaws re-
maining in this bill.
First and most serious, the House bill
ignores the biggest need of Americas
transportation system: holding states ac-
countable for repairing and maintaining
our road, bridge and transit system. The
bill actually eliminates the bridge repair
program and offloads responsibility for
federal-aid bridges onto local taxpayers.
Lacking a laser focus on repair gives de-
partments of transportation a lot of leeway
to build new highways that we cant afford
to maintain.
HR7 also guts funding for walking and
bicycling transportation modes that are
vital to the economic sustainability of our
community and that make sound econom-
ic choices for local families. About 24 per-
cent of households in Wilkes-Barre do not
own automobiles, according to the U.S.
Census Bureaus American Community
Survey.
Many of our residents are walkers, tran-
sit riders and bicyclists right now, not in
some environmentalists dream of the
future. Nine percent of Wilkes-Barre work-
ers walk to work. More would if the choice
was easier and safer, but the House bill
also eliminates the tiny, but popular, Safe
Routes to School program, helping kids
walk to school safely.
HR7 also takes a sledgehammer to local
control, by taking away authority and
funding sources that cities and towns have
to address congestion, air pollution, safety
and other issues. And the House language
also drastically reduces the opportunities
for local voices to raise concern about the
impacts of projects on their properties,
their health, their lives, their neighbor-
hoods and treasured landscapes. That will
allow governors to force projects on com-
munities, even when the locals who have
to live with the projects have rejected
them.
Finally, HR7 opens protected lands and
coastal areas to oil and gas drilling, with
the intention of diverting a share of leasing
fees to the transportation program. In
addition to environmental concerns, it
raises serious practical questions. No one
knows how much money this will produce,
nor when it will materialize, putting the
transportation program in an unstable
position. No one expects the amount,
however much it is, to be enough to actual-
ly fund the program.
I urge everyone to contact their repre-
sentative to push for amendments that fix
these problems and give us a transporta-
tion bill that meets the needs we have now,
rather than fulfilling a 1950s-like fantasy of
highway expansion.

Far too many workers
are retiring too early
R
etirement age is far too young.
Improved technology in health care
has made the average age of death
increase over the years. Too many Amer-
icans are ending their careers far too early.
With our economy being how it is, all the
citizens need to get up and do their part in
helping to fix it!
Young people are paying for the older
people who could be working. Not to men-
tion, these younger people are just learn-
ing how to live on their own and paying off
their college debts. Instead of falling apart
as a country and being angry with one
another, we need to pull together. Sixty-
five years old is too young to retire and
depend on others for your wants and
needs.

IGHTY PERCENT of
the antibiotics used in
the UnitedStates arent
taken by people. They
aregiventoanimals, oftentopro-
motegrowthratherthanbecause
the animals actually are sick.
The Food and Drug Adminis-
tration has known this for more
than 30 years. It also has known
for decades that antibiotics in
animals, over time, decrease the
effectiveness of penicillinandtet-
racycline in humans. It shouldnt
have taken a federal judges rul-
ing in March to push the govern-
ment to enforce a banonagricul-
tural uses of popular antibiotics.
Nor should the Obama adminis-
trationallowrancherstoskirt the
issue, as widely expected, and
keep giving antibiotics to their
animals to protect their flocks
and herds from potential health
outbreaks.
The agriculture industry has
brought this problem on itself
through the practice of packing
chickens, cattle and pigs into
tightly constrained spaces.
These conditions increase the
odds that diseases will occur and
spread.
Until now, the FDAhas issued
guidelines on antibiotic use and
hoped ranchers would follow
them.
Now its time for regulation.

The good news for procrasti-
nators in 2012: The traditional
filing deadline of April 15 has
been pushed back by a couple
of days. The switch was made
to accommodate peculiarities
of the calendar and of custom:
April 15 falls on a Sunday and
the following day is a holiday
observed in the District of Co-
lumbia, Emancipation Day, dic-
tating that the federal deadline
be moved to Tuesday.
More good news for procras-
tinators and others who simply
wont have all their paperwork
in order in two weeks: You can
apply for an extension of time
(about six months) to file your
tax return using Form 4868.
Theapplication, however, must
be submitted by April 17 and, if
you expect to owe money, you
must pay it now not later.
Cant pay immediately?
There might be relief for you,
too.
Due to the nations lingering
unemployment problem, the
Internal Revenue Service will
make allowances this year for
eligible taxpayers who are hav-
ing trouble paying their full tax
bills on time. Ask about the
Fresh Start program and
Form1127-A.
For assistance with filing,
consider some of these options.

activity), Yudichak, D-Ply-
mouth Township, said during a
press conference at the Hazleton
Area High School.
We cannot and will not ig-
nore gang violence that has been
perpetuated in our community.
Yudichak and Barlettas press
conference Monday came as an
update to the community on Op-
eration Gang Up, a local, biparti-
san initiative to combat gang ac-
tivity in Northeastern Pennsyl-
vania.
Yudichak and Barletta spoke
of the March 15 attack on a 13-
year-old Hazleton Elementary/
Middle School student as the
most recent reason the commu-
nity needs to act on gang vio-
lence.
The girl was forced into a ve-
hicle near Ninth Street and Man-
hattan Court, and was able to es-
cape from the vehicle near the
Altmiller Playground, where po-
lice say she was attacked in a ju-
HAZLETON Two local leg-
islators said Monday the gang-
related attack on a 13-year-old
girl at a city playground is the
most recent example of why
more needs to be done to deter
gang activity in the community.
New legislation is in the
works and a community forum
is planned to help educate citi-
zens.
U.S. Rep. Lou Barletta and
state Sen. John Yudichak an-
nounced Monday a forum to be
held in May at which the com-
munity can come together to
wage a war on gang activity.
This horrifying attack streng-
thens the need (to address gang
venile gang-related incident.
The beating stopped, Yudi-
chak said Monday, when citizen
heroes intervened.
The first step is to admit we
have a gang problem, Barletta,
R-Hazleton, said. Then, we can
make NEPAthe place we want it
to be where we can live with-
out fear of gang activity.
The community forum to be
held on May 3 at Luzerne Coun-
ty Community College, Barletta
said, is a chance for the commu-
nity to learn how they can be a
part of the imitative to stop gang
activity.
That can be accomplished
mostly, Barletta said, by pre-
venting children from joining
gangs by reaching out to par-
ents, school officials and com-
munity leaders.
Barletta and Yudichak said
they are working with other law-
makers to put together a pack-
age to present to specific com-
mittees in an effort to add to cur-
rent laws about gang violence.
Hazleton Area Acting Super-
intendent Francis Antonelli said
Monday he is thankful for the ef-
forts of lawenforcement and leg-
islators for their work in deter-
ring gang activity, and he is
pursing grant money to help.
Antonelli said he is seeking
grant money to bring gang
awareness training to school stu-
dents, and working in conjunc-
tion with Serento Gardens, a Ha-
zleton-based substance-abuse
treatment and education center,
to work on a drug education pro-
gram.
There are also efforts, Anto-
nelli said, to work with the state
police to increase their pres-
ences on Hazleton Area campus-
es.
Gang members never stop
working, Barletta said.
Its time for the community
to get involved.

and Jan. 7, 2012.
The Electronic Funds Trans-
fer Act requires ATMs to con-
tain an external notice posted
in a conspicuous place, as well
as a screen that advises the
consumer of any fee.
Kim Graber, a spokesperson
for First Data, declined to com-
ment on the lawsuit. Dave
Shipula, owner of the Beer Su-
per, said he was not aware the
lawsuit had been filed until
contacted by a reporter on
Monday.
After being notified, Shipula
checked the ATM and said it
did contain a notice posted on
the outside corner of the ma-
chine. In addition, a screen
pops upnotifyingthecustomer
a $2.50 fee will be charged pri-
or to the transaction going
through, Shipula said.
I dont feel thereareanyhid-
den fees. You cant proceed un-
less you push a button to agree
to the fee, Shipula said.
Shipula said he was frustrat-
ed to learn hes being sued giv-
en that he does not own the
ATM and does not make any
money off of it.
Ive never gotten a penny
out of that machine, he said.
Its a convenience for my cus-
tomers and nothing else.
The lawsuit seeks to certify
the case as a class action that
would include all persons who
incurred a charge for utilizing
the ATM without being ad-
vised of the fee by an external
notice.

1990s he designed a three-credit
course on street gangs. He has
researched gangs in cities such
as Los Angeles, New York and
Chicago.
Having rival gangs operating
in the county will result in in-
creased crime, Marinello said.
Marinello said a lot of young
people get involved with gangs
because its cool. He said teen-
agers looking for identity will
start dressing like gangsters and
hanging out with gang mem-
bers.
Today its cool to be tough,
he said.
Salavantis said many gang
members come from homes
where domestic violence oc-
curs.
We need the victims of the
violence, often women, to have
the strength to remove them-
selves and their children, so
their children are not raised in
violent homes, thus helping to
end the cycle of abuse, she
said.
The district attorney said
her office is implementing
programs to deal with and as-
sist children in the communi-
ty who have found themselves
in the criminal justice system.
But the fact remains that we
are a reactive, not a proactive
system, she said. By the time
we encounter the youth of our
community, they have often al-
ready lost their way. They have
already committed crimes and
are entrenched in the criminal
justice system.

The show traces milestones in
addicts lives and some of the
painful events or unhealthy fam-
ily dynamics in their past. Cam-
era crews follow the subjects to
show how their behavior has spi-
raled out of control, with the ad-
dictsledtobelievetheyarepart of
a documentary about addiction.
Each episode culminates with
family members uniting to con-
front theaddict tosaytheywill no
longer be enablers and to encour-
age the addict to participate in a
rehabilitation program. Some ac-
cept treatment, whileotherswalk
away.
Participating in DeGroots in-
tervention were Nijmeh, Nij-
mehs husband of 25 years, Zahi;
her parents, Kingston residents
James J. and Mary Louise Heff-
ers; her brother, James L. Heffers;
and sister Roz, who did not want
her last name printed.
Allowing the familys painful
struggletoappear onnational tel-
evision was unnerving, Nijmeh
said.
It was so emotional. Theres
embarrassment, but this is to
save Terrys life. What is more im-
portant?
Problems began early
A graduate of Bishop OReilly
High School, the 45-year-old De-
Groot battled an eating disorder
in her youth and was taunted for
being overweight in school, her
sister said.
DeGroot did some runway
modeling and landed a job with
the QVC shopping network. De-
Groots husband of 20 years di-
vorced her because he could no
longer tolerate her addiction, Nij-
meh said. Their 9-year-old son
lives with his father out of the ar-
ea.
Eventually DeGroot returned
to the area from Bucks County
and lived first with Nijmeh and
thenwithher parents as she com-
pleted stints at rehab.
Her nickname was Holly-
wood in rehab because of her
beauty, her sister said.
The family tried to police and
babysit her but couldnt keep her
awayfromalcohol. DeGroot land-
ed in emergency rooms several
times. Nijmeh recalled several
memories of discovering her sis-
ter close to death.
Her sister once dressed up be-
fore a binge because she thought
she would be found dead, she
said.
To her, she had nothing be-
causeher spirit was sodamaged,
Nijmeh said.
In September DeGroot was
found slumped over her steering
wheel after nearly crashing into a
business in Luzerne, and her
blood-alcohol level was seven
times over the legal limit, Nijmeh
said. The family had been search-
ing for her for hours and received
a call fromthe hospital.
They didnt know how she
was still breathing, Nijmeh said.
A few years ago, DeGroot an-
nounced she had something im-
portant to tell Nijmeh and her
mother and disclosed she had
been molested by a friend of her
fathers whenshe was a child, Nij-
mehsaid. Nijmehsaidhermother
was in denial, in part because the
disclosure came after so many
years and in the midst of De-
Groots inebriatedstate. The idea
remained in the back of their
minds andwasnt discussedagain
until the television crew started
pressing Nijmeh.
Nijmehsaidtheshowsworkers
interviewed her and her family
for many hours and insisted she
was hiding something. Nijmeh
said she told them the alleged
molestation was the only thing
she hadnt mentioned, still un-
sure about it herself.
I had blocked it out. Who
wants to believe something like
that? Nijmeh said.
The shows producers suspect-
ed DeGroot was using alcohol in
part to dull the pain of her secret.
Theallegedmolester diedseveral
years ago.
Addiction specialist Donna
Chavous encouraged the family
to make it clear to DeGroot dur-
ing the intervention that they be-
lieved she was molested. The in-
tervention was taped in Novem-
ber at a hotel in Scranton.
Interventions require family
members to stop allowing the ad-
diction to continue by providing
money and lodging. Mustering
the courage to put a sick loved
one out on the street is excruciat-
ing, Nijmeh said.
Her father initially said he
couldnt do it.
I said its either that or you go
visit her in the
cemetery, and
thenherealized
it, Nijmeh
said.
One by one,
the family
members also
told DeGroot
they loved her
and reminded
her of her posi-
tive qualities.
DeGroot
didnt immedi-
ately accept the
treatment, say-
ing she needed
to go outside
for a cigarette.
It seemed
like forever. It
couldhavebeen
over an hour, and were going out
of our minds, Nijmeh said.
DeGroot returned and agreed
to accept treatment, saying she
didnt want to be sick anymore.
We just all broke down. I al-
most felt like a wind go by me
with everybody exhaling, even
the filmcrew, Nijmeh said.
Family is optimistic
DeGroot resembledan80-year-
old woman when she entered
Shades of Hope, which did not
charge for the treatment, Nijmeh
said.
Her once flawless skin, fea-
tured on QVCbroadcasts for face
cream, was saggingfromher face,
Nijmeh said.
The treatment appears to be
working, said Nijmeh, who
speaks to her sister about once a
week.
DeGroot has transferred to a
halfway house on the Shades of
Hope campus and is receiving
mentoring and support from ac-
tress Ashley Judd, who volun-
teers to help for addicts, Nijmeh
said.
Shes doing remarkable. Shes
actually mentoring the new pa-
tients coming in, Nijmeh said of
her sister.
Her mother visited DeGroot at
the rehab and said she is upbeat
and looks like a teenager, Nij-
meh said.
Nijmeh said her parents in-
stilledasenseof faithintheir chil-
dren and did their best, and she
fears the show paints them in a
negative light. For example, her
father was portrayed as unin-
volved, but he was often busy
workingsoher mother couldstay
home with their children, she
said.
The program also shows her
mother tearfully telling DeGroot
she was sorry she wasnt there for
her when she was molested. Nij-
meh said her mother saw no evi-
dence of the molestation and had
unsuccessfully tried to figure out
what was wrongby seekingcoun-
selingfor her daughter asayouth.
My parents are in their 70s,
and this took a toll on them, she
said.
DeGroots future plans are un-
certain, but she has scheduled a
visit to see her son on his 10th
birthday in May.
Nijmehsaidher sister wouldbe
in a cemetery without the show,
and she hopes her familys deci-
sion to go public will also inspire
others to keep hope for addicted
loved ones.
She was in a very dark place.
We had a true miracle, she said.

Last month in the finals of the
PIAA Class 2A Wrestling Cham-
pionships, Vito Pasone was stop-
ped short of the ultimate goal by
a two-time state champion from
West Virginia in Ryan Diehl.
Over the weekend, the Meyers
senior proved he could beat state
titlists from other states.
The 113-pounder not only de-
feated one former state cham-
pion, but dispatched three which
earned a total
of nine state
championships
among them en
route to a gold
medal at the
National High
School Coach-
es Association
National Senior
Wrestling Championships at the
Virginia Beach Convention Cen-
ter.
Even though he won a national
championship, the Meyers stand-
out, who has not committed to a
college yet, took Monday off
from practice but will be right
back in the wrestling room and
weight room this afternoon,
working to get better for the next
challenge.
It was great. Everything I
worked for paid off, Pasone said.
But just because I did one thing
good doesnt mean I have to take
time off.
Pasone won five matches over
the weekend and, at times, made
things look easy. He started the
event with a pin over North Car-
olinas Sam Murph in1:54. In the
second round, he sent Conor Kir-
kegard, a three-time state cham-
pion from Connecticut, into the
losers bracket with a 10-0 major
decision. His quarterfinal bout
was a 12-9 victory over Georgias
Darshawn Sharp, who was a
fourth- and a third-place finisher
in four tries at his states event.
Then came one of the toughest
opponents Pasone may have ever
seen in any tournament in Za-
chary Bridson, a four-time state
champion from New Hampshire
in the semis. Well, the Mohawk
took care of business there with
an11-5 victory to get to the finals.
For the championship, he went
against Braun Marquez, a two-
time state gold medal winner
from Texas. Pasone, who bested
Marquez in the quarters of last
years Junior Nationals en route a
runner-up finish, earned a 9-3 vic-
tory for the gold medal.
He came in very focused and

to cap a season in which anything less

S
uddenly, the Philadelphia Phillies
lineup doesnt seemso imposing
anymore.
Not without Chase Utley. Not missing
Ryan Howard.
The third, fourth and fifth hitters for
the Phillies to start Mondays exhibition
game against the Pittsburgh Pirates were
Jimmy Rollins, Hunter Pence and Shane
Victorino. They dont exactly conjure up
comparisons to the power-packed pop the
Phillies received from the middle of their
batting order when they were whacking
their way to two straight National League
pennants.
But times have changed.
Jayson Werth left the lineup to sign a
lucrative contract with the Washington
Nationals after the Phillies lost the 2009
World Series to the NewYork Yankees.
Utleys been bothered by gimpy knees
for two straight spring trainings, and will
once again open the season on the dis-
abled list. Howard will join himthere,
after his recoverys been slowfrom the
torn Achilles tendon he suffered while
making the final out of last years playoff
series loss to the St. Louis Cardinals.
Thats a total of 112 homers, 333 RBI
and 315 runs missing from the heart of a
batting order that took the Phillies to a
second straight World Series in 2009.
The Phillies dont have the legs to walk
over everyone in the National League
anymore. They are going to have to run if
they plan to score runs.
That became obvious when the Phillies
started blazing around the bases during
the start of an On Deck exhibition series
against the Pirates at Citizens Bank Park.
Speedy Juan Pierre, a neat offseason
addition to the team, stole runs with his
legs in the first and third innings. Victori-
no and Freddy Galvis -- the replacement
at second base until Utley returns -- pro-
duced runs by stretching shots to the
outfield into triples.
And although Rollins was thrown out
trying to do the same, he was praised for
his hustle and aggression by Phillies
manager Charlie Manuel.
The message is clear.
Homers hurt. But speed kills.
And Pierre can bring a blast of that.
He makes thing happen, Phillies
manager Charlie Manuel said, the idea of
a running club growing on himquickly.
When hes getting base hits and spraying
the ball around, he brings energy. Hes the
kind of guy who ticks the other teamoff -
pesky.
Hes the kind of guy the Phillies need
right now.
Pierre has never stolen less than 27
bases in a season over his 12-year career,
and that lifetime lowcame last year when
he was playing in the non-running Amer-
ican League for the Chicago White Sox.
Pierre has scored 980 runs and has 554
stolen bases to his big league credit,
playing mostly for the Florida Marlins
and Los Angeles Dodgers. By compari-
son, Rollins -- a pretty good baserunner
who has been the biggest threat to steal
for the Phillies -- has 373 career stolen
bases over the same 12 years Pierre has
played in the big leagues.
Put themtogether in the same lineup,
and it could be a big headache for oppos-
ing pitchers.
For example, Pierre led off the game by
dumping a hit off the glove of Pittsburghs
diving left fielder Alex Presley. But Pierre
didnt stop there, oh no. He darted to
second base, turning a single into a dou-
ble when the ball skidded off Presleys
glove.
A hustle double, Pierre called it.
Then Pierre tagged and moved to third
base on a fly out to mediumcenter field,
then scored when Rollins drove a deep
sacrifice fly to center.
A little extra speed, a lot of hustle, and
the Phillies manufactured a run.
Thats just my game, Pierre said. Im
not going to hit home runs. Im going to
play pepper with it, hit it where they
aint, steal bases. Thats my goal every
night, put pressure on the defense.
He did it again in the third inning,
when Pierre was hit by a pitch and

Its finally here, Opening Day 2012! Every year you get the butter-
flies inyour stomachas youhear thecall topost for thefirst raceof the
live racing season, theres nothing like that feeling. A solid fourteen
race slate is on tap for today, with five divisions of the newlate closer,
the Bobby Weiss Series, headlining the program.
In the Weiss Series I see a standout that towers over all others, and
thats the Dylan Davis trained pacer Fearless Diablo. The late bloom-
ing four-year old son of Art Major has just been super all winter at
Dover Downs, and even has paced well against some tough stock at
the Meadowlands. His most recent effort was just sensational on
March19. Leaving frompost six, Fearless Diablo just floated out and
didnt make a move until the half, fromthere he was just a blur, pacing
a back half in an eye-popping :54 to win going away, stopping the
timer in a fast 1:51.1. No one in here can match his turn of foot and
look for yet another romp in this evenings fourth race.

A Jackson will be back on the
sidelines when the Dallas foot-
ball teamopens its seasonSept. 1.
But hell be on the opposite side
of the field, and wearing the bur-
gundy and gold of Wyoming Val-
ley West.
Ted Jackson Jr., Dallas offen-
sive coordinator for the last 11
seasons, has joined the coaching
staff of the Spartans, who open
their season against a team
where his dad served as head
coach for 27 seasons before being
replaced in February.
The irony, I guess, Jackson
Jr. said. I knew if I ended up at
Valley West Id end up playing
there against themat some point.
Its going to be odd, especially
with it being the opener at Dal-
las.
Jackson Jr. was a receiver on
Dallas 1993 Class 2Astate cham-
pionship team and then quarter-
backed the Mountaineers as a ju-
nior and senior. After college, he
joined his father, Ted Sr., on the
sidelines in 2000. He was also
Dallas head basketball coach for
seven seasons before resigning
prior to this past season.
Jackson Jr. said Valley West
head coach Pat Keating contact-
ed him shortly after the Dallas
School Board opened Jackson
Sr.s position in December.
He offered me a job with the
offense, JacksonJr. said. At that
time, I told him I wasnt sure be-
cause, obviously, I was still hope-
ful my dad was going to get his
job back. Then when it didnt
work out, I decided to accept his
offer.
The Dallas school board decid-
ed to hire Bob Zaruta in February
to replace Jackson Sr., who
amassed a record of 231-76-3 in
27 seasons.
Jackson Jr. said he was unsure
whether hell have the title offen-
sive coordinator with the Spar-
tans. He is respected in coaching
circles for his offensive schemes.
Dallas averaged 35.2 points dur-
ing the Wyoming Valley Confer-
ence regular season while win-
ning the Division 3A title.
Right now, Jackson Jr. and
Keatingare decidinghowthe two
offenses will mesh. Valley West
ran a no-huddle offense exten-
sively in 2011.
Jackson Jr. said his dad hasnt
decided whether hell be coach-
ing in any capacity this coming
season.
H I G H S C H O O L F O O T B A L L
One Jackson will be back on sidelines this fall
Reunion set for Jackson, ex-Dallas players
Former Dallas High School football coach Ted Jackson will be
honored next month at a reunion of Mountaineer players during his
tenure from1985-2011.
The event will take place from 4-8 p.m., Sunday, May 27, at Irem
Temple. Cost is $45 per person for open bar and a buffet dinner.
Those under 21 can attend for $20. Children 4 years old and under
are free. Dinner includes soda, coffee, tea and dessert.
Deadline is Friday, May 18. Payments can be made to Sandy
Jackson, 41 Bedford St., Shavertown, Pa., 18708. For more
information, contact Sandy Jackson at 574-0412 or Ted Jackson Jr.
at 574-0409.
Jackson won 16 Wyoming Valley Conference, four Eastern
Conference and three District 2 championships during his coaching
career. His team also won the 1993 PIAA Class 2A championship. He
has a career record of 231-76-3, but had his position opened by the
school board in December 2011 and was replaced in February.

Warriors get three late
runs to down Spartans
The Times Leader staff
LEHMAN TWP. If it wasnt
for that troublesome left post,
Lake-Lehman wouldnt have
had to worry about sweating
out the second half Monday
afternoon.
But with that metal pole
serving like a second goalkeep-
er, the Black Knights couldnt
rest easy until the waning min-
utes when Shoshana Mahoney
added some space between
them and Delaware Valley.
Mahoneys second goal of the
game with just under four min-
utes to play gave Lehman a 2-0
victory in a battle of top teams
in Division 1-B of Wyoming
Valley Conference girls soccer.
The two teams tied for the
divisional title last year, with
Lehman winning a playoff game
3-2 to gain the championship.
Mondays game looked like it
would be decided by one goal
as well.
Mahoney took a through ball
from Hannah Stull in the 11th
minute, and timed her break
past DelVal defender Darian
Walter.
Then came two oh-so-close
scoring opportunities rejected
by the left post. The first came
in the 20th minute when Kaylee
Hillard launched a shot from
the left side. It hit the left post,
and her follow-up attempt just
missed wide right. The second
was in the 38th when Mahoney
struck the left post from the
right side of the field.
In the beginning, we were
trying to push forward, play
with the wind and put the ball
on the ground, Lehman coach
Kelly Adamshick said. We hit
the post. We had five shots that
should have been in the goal.
Instead, the Black Knights
(2-0) had one and the wind in
their faces for the second half.
DelVal (2-1) took immediate
advantage. Anna Chamberlin
challenged Lehman keeper
Danae Sutliff in the opening
minute. Sutliff later came up
with another save on a shot by
Kyrsten Brockmann.
And then a bit later, Cham-
berlin and Brockmann made a
run on goal, but Chamberlins
shot sailed over the crossbar.
At halftime, we talked about
what we were doing wrong,
DelVal coach Donnel Leiva-
Vazquez said. We werent
possessing, we werent passing,
we werent moving. We correct-
ed the mistakes and gave our-
selves a lot of opportunities,
but we just didnt put anything
away.
Lehman did when Mahoney
took a perfect crossing pass
from Emily Sutton to score in
the 77th minute.

Kelly Adamshick
Lake-Lehman coach
promptly stole second base. He
cruised home when Rollins
drilled a double to right. The
Phillies shortstop was thrown
out trying to go for three, but
the idea was ideal. The Phillies
arent slowing down this year.
They dont have time to wait
on the power thats disappeared
from their batting order.
That doesnt have to be a bad
thing for the Phillies. Just a fast
change.

KISSIMMEE, Fla. Tim
Hudson made his first appear-
ance of the spring, allowing an
infield single over two innings
for the Atlanta Braves in an 8-2
loss to the New York Mets.
Ruben Tejada hit a three-run
homer and Bobby Parnell al-
lowed two hits over three in-
nings for New York.
Hudson went 16-10 with a
3.23 ERA last season, but had
back surgery during the offsea-
son and isnt expected back
until May. He said he felt fine
after his two innings and could
have gone further.
The Mets scored four runs in
the ninth, two on bases loaded
walks to Rafael Fernandez and
Richard Lucas. Rather than
having a starter face an NL East
rival, Parnell, who made 60
relief appearances year, started
for the Mets.
Freddie Freeman and Jordan
Parraz homered for the Braves,
while Brandon Beachy allowed
four runs on seven hits in six
innings.
Mariners 7, Rockies 2
PEORIA, Ariz. Ichiro Suzu-
ki broke a scoreless tie with a
run-scoring double in the third
and Felix Hernandez pitched
four shutout innings, leading
the Seattle Mariners over the
Colorado Rockies.
Mariners catcher Jesus Mon-
tero was hit in the helmet by a
pitch from Edgmer Escalona.
An angry Montero had to be
escorted off the field by manag-
er Eric Wedge. On Sunday,
Clevelands Ubaldo Jimenez hit
former Colorado teammate Troy
Tulowitzki. Jimenez was sus-
pended five games and is ap-
pealing.
Brewers 13, White Sox 7
GLENDALE, Ariz. Zack
Greinke struggled in his final
outing of spring training, allow-
ing six runs over three innings
in Milwaukees win over Chica-
go.
Reds 2, Indians 1
GOODYEAR, Ariz. Cleve-
land closer Chris Perez pitched
a perfect inning but the Indians
lost to Cincinnati in the Cactus
League finale for Ohios two
teams.
Cubs 8, Diamondbacks 3
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. Geo-
vany Soto hit a two-run homer
and Chicago roughed up young
Arizona left-hander Patrick
Corbin in a rough ending to his
impressive spring.
Red Sox 4, Nationals 2
FORT MYERS, Fla. Aaron
Cook pitched five solid innings
and Adrian Gonzalez had two
hits in Bostons victory over
Washington.
Twins 6, Rays 6
PORT CHARLOTTE, Fla.
David Price struck out six over
four shutout innings in his final
spring tuneup and Tampa Bay
tied Minnesota.
Tigers 11, Blue Jays 8
LAKELAND, Fla. Drew
Smyly started fast and then
faded in his first outing since
winning a job in Detroits rota-
tion, but the Tigers got home
runs from Prince Fielder and
Delmon Young to beat Toronto.
Yankees 5, Marlins 2
MIAMI Alex Rodriguez
drove in three runs with a dou-
ble and a sacrifice fly, and the
New York Yankees completed a
two-game exhibition sweep in
the Miami Marlins new ballpark
by winning.
The game was the last of
spring training for the Marlins,
who open the season in the
ballpark Wednesday night
against the World Series cham-
pion St. Louis Cardinals.
Phillies 4, Pirates 3
PHILADELPHIA Freddy
Galvis hit a tiebreaking RBI
triple in the seventh inning,
Jimmy Rollins drove in two runs
and the Philadelphia Phillies
beat the Pittsburgh Pirates in
their first of two exhibition
games back home.
With Chase Utley and Ryan
Howard out of the lineup, the
Phillies have tried several differ-
ent ways to try and replace their
Nos. 3-4 hitters. Rollins, batting
in the three-hole instead of
leadoff, hit a sacrifice fly in the
first inning and lined an RBI
double in the third. New leadoff
hitter Juan Pierre scored two
runs.
Andrew McCutchen hit a solo
homer for the Pirates, who used
seven different pitchers.
Phillies starter Joe Blanton
allowed two runs and three hits
in 4 2-3 innings. Blanton retired
the first 10 batters he faced. The
teams will open the season at
Pittsburgh on Thursday.

NEW YORK NFL Commis-
sioner Roger Goodell says he
wont stand in the way if the New
Orleans Saints ask Bill Parcells to
take over as interimcoach for sus-
pended Sean Payton.
Thats their decision. They
need to make those decisions and
well move forward, Goodell said
Monday at the opening of an NFL
pop-up store featuring new team
apparel. Bills a great coach, and
Im sure (he) will add a lot of per-
sonality and intrigue. And hes as
competitiveastheyget soImsure
hell do a good job.
Before the Saints pick someone
to run the team
this year,
though, Good-
ell still has to
rule on Paytons
appeal of his
season-longsus-
pension, along
with the ap-
peals of shorter suspensions toas-
sistant coach Joe Vitt and general
manager Mickey Loomis and pe-
nalties handed down to the team.
Goodell expects to hear the ap-
pealsthisweek, andhopestomak-
ing a ruling shortly thereafter.
Part of it depends exactly
when the appeal is going to be,
and second of all what informa-
tion comes up in the appeal, said
Goodell, whohasmet withPayton
twice before the appeal was filed.
Meanwhile, league officials
were meeting with NFL Players
Association representatives Mon-
day about penalties involving
players whotookpart inthe boun-
ty program.
Theunionhas askedtheNFLto
provide it withall the information
from the leagues investigation
that revealed 22 to 27 defensive
players were part of the Saints
pay-for-pain bounty pool. The
pool awardedthousandsof dollars
in cash bonuses from 2009-11 for
vicious hits that knockedtargeted
opponents out of games.
One example, according to the
league: Linebacker Jonathan Vil-
maoffered$10,000toanyNewOr-
leans player whosidelinedMinne-
sota Vikings quarterback Brett
Favre during the 2010 NFCcham-
pionship game.
Our team will meet with the
NFLtoday, askhardquestionsand
will expect to see all documents
and direct evidence of a pay-to-in-
jure scheme, DeMaurice Smith,
executive director of the NFL
Players Association, told the web-
site Pro Player Insiders on Mon-
day. That is what a fair process
dictates. I will get afull briefingby
our team and after that the next
stepwill betoconsult withplayers
about what was learned. Only
then will we confer with the NFL.

HEALTH S E C T I O N C
THE TIMES LEADER TUESDAY, APRIL 3, 2012
timesleader.com
A good diet is crucial during ado-
lescence because its a time of
such rapid growth and devel-
opment, says Casey Beeghly, a
registered dietitian with Sentara
Healthcare in Norfolk, Va. Some
tips:
Explain nutrition on their terms.
Teens might not care that un-
healthy eating could contribute
to problems such as high blood
pressure or brittle bones years
later. They do care about having
clear skin, thick hair, a good
body weight and more energy
and brainpower.
Calcium is key ... Teens need at
least two daily servings of low-
fat dairy such as milk, yogurt
and cottage cheese to support
bone growth. Other good sourc-
es are dark green vegetables,
nuts and fortified cereals.
... and so is iron. The mineral helps
build lean body mass, increase
red blood cell production and,
for girls, replace iron lost during
menstruation. Iron-rich foods
include lean red meats, chicken,
fish, beans, broccoli, spinach and
fortified whole grains.
Add in folic acid. This vitamin also
helps build lean muscle, and girls
need it to guard against birth
defects in future pregnancies.
Dark green vegetables, citrus
fruits and fortified breads and
cereals are good choices.
Boost fiber intake. Many teens
arent great about eating fruits
and vegetables. Keep encourag-
ing those foods, along with
whole-grain breads and cereals
with at least three to five grams
of fiber per serving.
Help them not skip meals. Up to a
quarter of teens dont eat break-
fast every day. For easy-to-grab
options, fill a basket with fruit,
whole-grain granola bars or
small bags of handmade trail mix
(try Cheerios, cranberries, rai-
sins and nuts).
Be realistic about fast food.
Instead of forbidding it, educate
teens on healthy swaps such as
grilled chicken sandwiches for
fried, mustard for mayonnaise,
apple slices for fries or baked
chips for regular.

Post-traumatic stress
disorder to be discussed
Post-traumatic stress disorder
will be the next topic on Call
the Doctor at 7 p.m. April 10
on WVIA-TV.
The disorder is an emotional
illness that was first formally
diagnosed in soldiers and war
veterans and is usually caused
by terribly frightening, life-
threatening or otherwise highly
unsafe experiences, but also can
be caused by devastating life
events such as unemployment
or divorce. Symptoms include
re-experiencing the trauma,
avoidance and hyper arousal.
More than 5 million people
suffer from the illness in any
one year.
Joining moderator George
Thomas will be Vince Carolan,
of A Better Today Incorporated;
Dr. Matthew Dooley, psycholo-
gist and expert on PTSD, men-
tal/behavioral health at the
Department of Veterans Affairs
Medical Center, Plains Town-
ship.
The panelists will also be
joined via video by Dr. Francine
Shapiro, author of Getting Past
Your Past and senior research
fellow at the Mental Research
Institute in Palo Alto, Calif.,
director of the EMDR Institute
and founder of the nonprofit
EMDR-Humanitarian Assist-
ance Programs.

IN BRIEF
See BRIEFS, Page 3C
Q: A friend of ours
has a form of leuke-
mia called AML.
Hes currently receiv-
ing chemotherapy,
but not doing well.
Do you know of any
hospitals where they
may be doing research to find a cure
for this cancer?
T.H., Philadelphia
A: Acute Myelogenous Leukemia,
also referred to as AML, is a cancer
of the blood in which immature,
abnormal white blood cells grow
rapidly and uncontrollably in the
bone marrow and interfere with the
bone marrows ability to produce red
blood cells, healthy white blood cells
and platelets. Its a fairly rare cancer,
with men affected more often than
women.
The average age of someone diag-
nosed with AML is 63 years of age.
AML cell growth is very fast and
aggressive, and its a fatal disease
within weeks or months if not treated
or diagnosed promptly.
Because AML cell growth crowds
out normal blood cells, it typically
causes anemia and the associated
symptoms of fatigue and shortness of
breath from a reduction in oxygen-
carrying red blood cells; bruising or
bleeding from a reduction in platelets
(clot cells); and infection from a
reduction in normal white blood
cells.
The key to survival in AML is early
diagnosis, chemotherapy to try to
induce remission and eventual stem
cell transplantation. There are sever-
al subtypes of AML, and treatment
and prognosis varies among the sub-
types. Five-year survival rates vary
from 15-70 percent, and relapse rates
vary from 33-78 percent, depending
upon the subtype.
Exciting research from Englands
Institute of Cancer Research may
have found a novel treatment for
AML using tranylcypromine (Par-
nate), an old and rarely-used anti-
depressant. All-Trans Retinoic Acid
(a vitamin A derivative) has worked
to treat one particular form of leuke-
mia by directing cancer cells to ma-
ture, age and die naturally. AML
seems to be resistant to All-Trans
Retinoic Acid because the genes in
the cancer cells that it normally tar-
gets are shut off.
Researchers just discovered that if
they block an enzyme using the anti-
depressant tranylcypromine, they can
switch on the genes that make AML
cancer cells vulnerable to All-Trans
Retinoic Acid. Researchers at Johns
Hopkins University and the Medical
University of South Carolina are
collaborating with researchers in
England, Germany and Canada.

WASHINGTON The
Food and Drug Administra-
tion has rejected a petition
from environmentalists that
would have banned the plas-
tic-hardening chemical bis-
phenol-A from all food and
drink packaging, including
plastic bottles and canned
food.
The agency said Friday that
petitioners did not present
compelling scientific evi-
dence to justify new restric-
tions on the much-debated
chemical, commonly known
as BPA, though federal scien-
tists continue to study the is-
sue.
The Natural Resources De-
fense Councils petition was
the latest move by public safe-
ty advocates to prod regula-
tors into taking action against
the chemical, which is found
in everything from CDs to
canned food to dental sea-
lants.

About 90 percent of Ameri-
cans have traces of BPA in their
bodies, mainly because it leach-
es out of food and beverage con-
tainers.
Some scientists believe expo-
sure to BPA can harm the repro-
ductive and nervous systems,
particularly in babies and small
children, potentially leading to
cancer and other diseases. They
point to results from dozens of
BPA studies in rodents and oth-
er animals.
But FDA reiterated in its re-
sponse that that those findings
cannot be applied to humans.
The agency said the studies cit-
ed by NRDC were often too
small to be conclusive. In other
cases they involved researchers
injecting BPA into animals,
whereas humans ingest the
chemical through their diet over
longer periods of time. The
agency also said that humans
metabolize and eliminate BPA
much more quickly than rats
and other lab animals.
While evidence from some
studies have raised questions as
to whether BPA may be associ-
ated with a variety of health ef-
fects, there remain serious ques-
tions about these studies, partic-
ularly as they relate to humans,
the agency said in its response.
The Natural Resources De-
fense Council petitioned the
FDA in 2008 to ban BPA as a
food additive, including all uses
in food or beverage packaging.
Petitions on various safety is-
sues are routinely filed by advo-
cacy groups, companies and
even individuals. When the FDA
failed to respond within the re-
quired timeframe, the environ-
mental group sued the agency.
In December a federal judge
ruled that the agency had to re-
spond by the end of March.
The FDA is out-of-step with
scientific and medical research,
said Dr. Sarah Janssen, NRDCs
senior scientist for public
health. This illustrates theneed
for a major overhaul of how the
government protects us against
dangerous chemicals.
FDA officials stressed that
their assessment of BPAis ongo-
ing, and they expect to issue an-
other update later this year
based on their most recent find-
ings. The agencys last official
statement was that there is
some concern about BPAs ef-
fects on infants and young chil-
dren.
The government is spending
$30 million to conduct addition-
al studies on the chemicals im-
pact on humans. Several federal
studies published in the last two
years suggest that even human
embryos retainfar less BPAthan
other animals.
Many companies have already
responded to consumer demand
by removing BPA from their
products. In 2008, Wal-Mart
Stores Inc. and Toys R Us said
they began phasing out bottles,
sippy cups and other childrens
items containing BPA. By the
endof 2009, the six leading mak-
ers of baby bottles in the U.S.
went BPA-free. Earlier this
month Campbells Soup said it
wouldbeginremovingBPAfrom
its most popular soups, though
it did not set a time frame.
But the vast majority of
canned goods in the U.S. are still
sealed with resin that contains
BPA to prevent contamination
and spoiling. Canned food man-
ufacturers have used the chem-
icals since the 1950s, and the
practice is approved by the FDA.
The chemical industry says BPA
is the safest, most effective sea-
lant.
Some manufacturers have be-
gun switching to alternatives.
Heinz reportedly uses BPA-free
coatings for its Nurture baby for-
mula cans, and ConAgra and
General Mills say they have
switched to alternative sealants
for some canned tomatoes.
The federal government has
beengrapplingwiththe safety of
BPA for more than four years.
The FDA revised its opinion on
BPA in 2010 saying there is
some concern about the chem-
icals impact on the brain and re-
productive systemof infants, ba-
bies and young children. Previ-
ously the agency said the trace
amounts of BPAthat leachout of
food containers are not danger-
ous.
While older children and
adults quickly eliminate the
chemical through their kidneys,
newborns and infants can retain
it for longer. Scientists pushing
for a ban on the chemical argue
that BPA mimics the effects of
the hormone estrogen, interfer-
ing with growth.

Have you ever done something
funny put a sweater on back-
ward, stepped in a wad of gum,
spelled happy wrong on a birth-
day cake then laughed about it?
Goodfor you. Hope the kids were
watching. For every time you laugh
at some silly challenge, channel
Goofy to get a giggle out of a little
one or laugh at a fixable oops,
youremodelingthevalueof humor.
Beyond the big belly laugh, humor
can help ease lifes tiny bumps and
serve as a teachingmoment for chil-
dren.
A parent who can be silly or en-
joy doing things that are kind of fun
and exaggerated, I think gives chil-
dren some really good coping
skills, says Doris Bergen, a distin-
guished professor of educational
psychology at Miami University in
Oxford, Ohio. Life is going to have
things that are not going to go the
way you want them to, and it helps
if you have an ability to see the fun-
ny side of things.
Parents, that may mean refram-
ing a situation, perhaps making
that extra p in Happpy Birthday
into a frosting flower.
Exaggerate the trouble a little,
Bergen says. By just making light
of it that way, it doesnt seem as
dire.
Start early. Very young children
begin to see things that they think
are funny at a very early age, says
Bergen, who has done extensive re-
search into humor and play. Even
in the first year of life, there are
some things that are just kind of
nonsense or funny things that hap-
pen.
Toddlers are very tuned in to
what might be funny, she adds.
They make up lots of little jokes. If
you want to encourage your chil-
dren to have humor, you need to be
responsive to that, and kind of join
in the fun.
The goal is kids who not only ap-
preciate jokes, but who know how
to take and make a joke themselves.
Some children perhaps naturally
are more likely to see the humor in
things, she says. But I think it is
also something parents encourage
or dont encourage in children.
However, oncechildrenget past 8
or 9 years old, silly may not always
work particularly if the intent is
totease. Parents must be mindful of
whether the intended humor might
be hurtful, she says.
Teasing is something that par-
ents can help children distinguish
between whats playful or not, she
says. The key is that (all parties
should be) enjoying it.
Which is why its important for
parents tohelpchildrenlearntouse
humor to cope with rough spots in
their life.
You have to help them learn to
take a joke ... tolearntotease back,
or you need to be able to take it and
change it, Bergen says. Or not pay
attention to it, she adds, or say
something back that conveys that it
didnt really bother you.
Humor is a very important cop-
ing mechanism, Bergen says.
Thats a skill thats important for
children to learn.
Parents should tap into their funny bones

Bergen offers these tips on helping
very young children develop a
sense of humor:
Look for humor in books you read to
kids: (Help) them to understand the
humor and why its funny.
Use peekaboo and surprises careful-
ly: Kids interpret them as funny in
comfortable, warm situations, but
scary when theyre somewhere
thats unfamiliar.
CULTIVATING HUMOR
Amp it up. Increase your
sets, reps or mileage, said
Amanda Visek, an assistant
professor of exercise science
at the George Washington
University. In order to con-
tinuetoseefitness gains you
have to continually chal-
lenge your body.
Set anewgoal: Signupfor
a newevent or work toward
settingapersonal record. Its
much more fun to work out
when youve got something
toworktoward.
If youveblownoff your
NewYearsfitness
resolution:
Troubleshoot: Figure out
why youquit workingout so
youdont repeat the pattern.
Were your goals realistic?
Didyouhaveenoughtimeto
accomplish them? We often
set ourselves up to fail be-
cause we start withunrealis-
tic expectations, said Visek,
who calls this false hope
syndrome. We tend to un-
derestimatehowhardit is to
incorporateexerciseintoour
lives and overestimate how
muchandhowquicklyit will
change our body, Viseksaid.
Plan ahead. Eliminate
common excuses, said Ver-
stegen. Pack your gym bag
the night before or store ex-
tra workout clothes and an
old pair of sneakers in your
car so you can never say, I
dont have my gymclothes,
saidVerstegen.
If youvebeensedentary
all winter:
Change one thing at a
time. Dont both diet and
exerciseall at once, saidMi-
chele Olson, research direc-
tor of the Human Perform-
ance Research Lab at Au-
burn University Montgom-
ery. Sticktoonechangeat a
timeandaddonotherchang-
es after you have tackled
one. Its better to succeed at
onethingthantofail atacou-
ple.
Add basic even mind-
less activity to your day,
said Verstegen. Start by tak-
ing the stairs, parking your
car farther away in the lot,
and walking a few laps
around your sons soccer
game rather than sitting the
entire time. These small
steps helpyoubecomemore
active and burn significant
calories over time.
Break it down. Several 10-
minutebouts of exercisecan
beaseffectiveasone30-min-
uteworkout. Olsonsuggests
starting with 10 minutes of
something like walking or
basic yoga. After 2 weeks,
add on another 10 minutes
andknowthat youcando
theadditional10minuteslat-
er in the day. In another
week, tack on 10 more min-
utesof somethingmoderate-
lyphysical sothat youareac-
cumulating30minutesmost

Dear Abby: PO Box 69440, Los Ange-

O N T H E W E B
Dear Abby: I have
been separated from
my husband, Fred,
for several months
because of his infidel-
ity. He is pushing to
move back in togeth-
er and has been very
insecure and overly clingy.
Fred and I have two children, so
this has been difficult for all of us.
But Im frustrated with his disrespect
for my space and seriously consider-
ing divorce. I want to tell him, but Im
worried about his reaction since he
cries every time I mention anything
that implies that I might give up on
us. He was married once before, and
told me that he had to stay with his
brother for a while afterward to make
sure he wouldnt hurt himself.
His family lives 400 miles away,
and he wants to visit them soon.
Would it be wrong of me to call him
while hes there and tell him its over?
I feel hell need support when he gets
the news. Hes a good father and good
friend. I do love and care about him,
and dont want him to do anything
that will hurt himself or his children,
but I cant stay married to someone
who cheats on me. Any suggestions?
Torn in Pieces
Dear Torn: To stay married to some-
one because you think he might hurt
himself would be giving in to emo-
tional blackmail. Fred is clingy and
needy because he now realizes what
his cheating may have cost him.
However, before ending the mar-
riage, its important that you under-
stand your disgust with him is mixed
with your anger at his betrayal. Thats
why you could both benefit if you
schedule some appointments with a
licensed marriage and family coun-
selor. If, during that time, you decide
you still want a divorce, the place to
tell him would be in the therapists of-
fice. You wont be alone. He will have
emotional support, and his family can
be told afterward.
Dear Abby: I am a 46-year-old mar-
ried man and have been with my wife
for 23 years. We were both married
before and have two children from
our prior marriages.
I have recently learned that Im ter-
minally ill and, as I come to the end
of my journey here on Earth, I need
some advice. My son, 26, does not
know hes not my biological child. His
mother was pregnant when she met
me and we never told him. I am con-
flicted as to whether I should. How
do I address this?
If I do it before I pass away, Im
afraid he will be upset and angry
and turn away from me. If I do it af-
terward, via taped video message or
handwritten letter, I wont be there to
answer the questions hes bound to
have. Where do I go from here, Abby?
Unsure in Missouri
Dear Unsure: Please accept my sym-
pathy for your poor prognosis. Your
situation is regrettable, but please
dont shoulder all the blame. Your
first wife shares some of it, too.
The young man has the right to
know that, while you love him and
have raised him as your own, he isnt
your biological child. He should be
told before your death, in person, and
nothing should be left out. If possible,
his mother should participate in the
conversation. And if she knows who
the father is, your son should have
access to an accurate family medical
history.
DEAR ABBY
A D V I C E
Cheating husband will need support to cope with impending divorce
To receive a collection of Abbys most
memorable and most frequently re-
quested poems and essays, send a busi-
ness-sized, self-addressed envelope, plus
check or money order for $3.95 ($4.50 in
Canada) to: Dear Abbys Keepers, P.O. Box
447, Mount Morris, IL 61054-0447. (Postage
is included.)
ARIES (March 21-April 19). You
have a wide range of emotions
and do not just operate on one
note. Anyone who thinks you
should always be cheerful is
being unreasonable. Expressing
your true feelings makes you
credible and trustworthy.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
Theres something specific you
do in your work that sets you
apart from the crowd. Youll
have the chance to share with
others how you came to do it
that way. The information is
more valuable than you know.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You can
tell that youre focusing exter-
nally when little things get in
your way that really shouldnt
make a difference to you at all.
Turn your focus inward.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). People
can be as territorial as animals
and even more so under todays
aspects. Youll recognize peo-
ples zones and be careful not
to enter into them unless youre
doing so for a particular reason.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You
wouldnt trust anyone who
sounded sweet all the time.
Remind yourself of this when
you feel like expressing your
edgy attitude.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). As you
lift a hand to help another, you
are lifting your own spirits,
whether or not you thought they
needed lifting. Why put a limit on
how good you should feel?
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Seize
the opportunity for stillness and
peace wherever you can get it. A
calm body and mind will give you
the sense that you can make it
through the wilderness.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Youll
have a physical sense of yourself
that doesnt entirely match up.
Like Alice said to the caterpillar
in Wonderland, I cant explain
myself ... because I am not
myself, you see.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
You are sincere and straightfor-
ward. You have nothing to hide,
so what could go wrong? Youd
like others to do the same, as
that would certainly keep things
simple.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
Like an audience trying to clap
in time with a shaky rhythm
section, a pattern you just estab-
lished may quickly fall apart.
Tonight, youll have another
chance to get into a groove.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). No
one said that expanding your
awareness was going to be easy.
Theres a certain amount of
discipline that will be necessary,
and youll have to let go of the
way you used to see things.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Your
happiness depends on having
an accurate understanding of
what others need and want.
Otherwise, youll be in danger of
becoming disillusioned.
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (April 3).
Your birthday is like the wave
of a magic wand. The first gift:
Youll finally make time for the
things you love but have rarely
been able to do until now. The
next 10 weeks ramp up your
professional scene. July and
September are good for your
financial bottom line. Pisces and
Leo people adore you. Your lucky
numbers are: 7, 10, 30, 26 and 2.
