WILKES-BARRE You
could call it the bus to no-

where.
In 2006, Wilkes-Barre city
ofcials paid $9,000 for a used
school bus with plans to use it
to transport seasonal workers
to job sites and, if necessary,
to assist in mass evacuations
during disasters.
Nearly seven years later,
the bus has yet to be used. It
sits parked at the Department
of Public Works building off
North Pennsylvania Avenue,
surrounded by overgrown
weeds and shrubs.
The bus, purchased from
DeNaples Auto Sales in Dun-
more, is among two vehicles
the city bought in 2006 that it
later determined could not be
registered. It also purchased a
2006 Chevrolet Cargo Van for
$18,000 from United Sanita-
tion, a company owned by
LAG Towing contractor Leo
Glodzik III, but returned it af-
HAZLE TWP. Visibly
shaking and crying, Teresa Wa-
sik said she was awakened early
Wednesday morning by the U.S.
Secret Service calling to inform
her that her husband, Krzystof
Wasik, was arrested after he al-
legedly made a bomb threat out-
side the White House.
Krzystof Wasik, 44, was taken
into custody just after 4:30 a.m.
after he approached a Secret
Service ofcer at the White
House gates and told the ofcer
that a bomb would detonate in
a truck that was parked in the
800 block of Vermont Avenue.
There was no bomb, but the
threat prompted an evacuation
of the immediate area.
Later Wednesday, Teresa
Wasik led a protection-from-
abuse petition in Luzerne Coun-
ty Court for herself and their
16-year-old daughter, describ-
ing a downward spiral that be-
gan when her husband stopped
taking medication for mental
illnesses.
Meanwhile, a complaint led
in U.S. District Court for the
District of Columbia alleges
Wasik was upset about rules
and regulations concerning
semi-trucks and truck nes he
had to pay.
According to the criminal
complaint:
Wasik approached the north
fence line at the White House
at about 4:35 a.m. and asked a
Secret Service ofcer if he could
speak to the president.
The ofcer advised Wasik he
would not be able to speak to
the president, but Wasik could
contact an agency that regulates
trafc. The complaint said Wa-
sik was escorted from the fence
but returned at 4:46 a.m. and
told the ofcer, I know what it
takes to get things done around
here. I have a bomb in my truck
parked 500 feet from here.

J
ames Simon and Jessica Buzinski, Wilkes University students, were caught in
the hail and rain for a time late Wednesday afternoon, so the two took shelter
under the bridge at the Northampton portal to the River Common in Wilkes-Barre.
Spring storms blew through the area, bringing strong winds, heavy rain and some
small hail. Some trees were reported downed throughout the area.

HARRISBURG Joe Pa-
ternos widow said Wednesday
that she and her husband were
ignorant about sexual predators
such as Jerry Sandusky and did
not realize that the former Penn
State assistant football coach
was abusing the boys he met
through a childrens charity that
he founded.
We have been unaware of
how a predator behaves, Sue
Paterno said at a program cel-
ebrating Child
Abuse Aware-
ness Month in
Pennsylvania.
In many cases,
we unknow-
ingly helped
him groom his
victims while
we thought we
were helping a child achieve self-
esteem and nd a better life.
Paterno said she was horri-
ed when she learned the truth
about Sandusky after his arrest
in November 2011.
Her husband, a College Foot-
ball Hall of Fame coach who led
the Penn States Nittany Lions
for 46 years, died in January
2012 at 85.
The last 17 months have
been lled with disbelief, hor-
ror, the pain of loss, sleepless
nights, praying for the victims
and for peace of mind for those
who unwittingly were too naive
to recognize the signs of abuse,
she said.
Jay Paterno, one of the cou-
ples ve children, also spoke
at the breakfast gathering spon-
sored by the Pennsylvania Fam-
ily Support Alliance.
The groups executive direc-
tor, Angela Liddle, acknowl-
edged that some members ques-
tioned the choice of the Paternos
as speakers, but she defended
the decision and described the
family as good folks.
An internal probe led by for-
mer FBI director Louis Freeh
and completed in July accused
Joe Paterno and three former
Penn State administrators of
covering up an abuse allega-
tion about Sandusky more than
Paternos
widow:

predator to go undetected,

WILKES-BARRE U.S. Sen.
Pat Toomey thinks taking guns
from the hands of criminals and
severely mentally ill people is
not an infringement of Second
Amendment rights.
With that, Toomey took a
huge bipartisan approach to try
to resolve the struggle to pass
legislation that will help curtail
tragedies such as the Newtown,
Conn., school massacre and ease
the fears of gun rights activists.
Toomey, R-Zionsville, and
Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin of
West Virginia have agreed on an
amendment on expanding back-
ground checks to more gun pur-
chases that could build support
for President Barack Obamas
drive to curb gun violence.
Pennsylvania has a long,
bipartisan tradition of support-
ing gun rights, Toomey said
Wednesday during a media tele-
conference. I ama proud part of
that tradition. I am a gun owner.
I revere the rights enshrined in
our Second Amendment. My re-
cord shows this.
He said criminal background
checks are just common sense.
If you pass a criminal back-
ground check,
you can buy a
gun, he said.
Its the peo-
ple who fail
a criminal or
mental health
b a c kg r o und
check that we
dont want having guns. That
can be done without infring-
ing on law-abiding peoples gun
rights. And we ought to do it.
The U.S. Senate is expected
to begin debating the legislation
today and the Toomey-Manchin
proposal is seen as key in achiev-
ing the necessary 60 votes to
move it forward. He said the
vote is procedural, and if 60
votes arent achieved, the mat-
ter is over.
But I do think we will get at
least 60 votes, Toomey said.
But I havent counted noses.
The National Rie Associa-
tion came out strong against
the amendment and critics of
the proposal claim it will violate
the Second Amendment right to
bear arms.
Background checks are no
guarantee, but they do help,
Toomey said. This amendment
strikes a very sensible balance
and it will reduce the risk that
criminals and mentally ill will
have guns.
Toomey-led amendment
seeks to broker gun law
Toomey
debate expected today on
proposal that NRA nds
unacceptable.

WASHINGTON Mixing
modest curbs on spending with
tax increases reviled by Repub-
licans, President Barack Obama
proposed a $3.8 trillion budget
on Wednesday that would raise
taxes on smokers and wealthy
Americans and trim Social Secu-
rity benets for millions.
Obamas 2014 blueprint com-
bines a $242 billion infusion of
new spending for road and rail
projects, early education and
jobs initiatives all favored by
Democrats with longer-term
savings from programs includ-
ing Medicare and the military. It
promises at least a start in cut-
ting huge annual federal decits.
The president pitched his plan
as a good-faith offer to his GOP
rivals because it incorporates
a proposal he made to Repub-
licans in December that wasnt
radically different from a GOP
plan drafted by
House Speaker
John Boehner.
But it follows
Januarys bit-
terly fought
10-year, $600
billion-plus tax
increase that
has stiffened
GOP resolve against further tax
hikes.
I have already met Repub-
licans more than halfway, so in
the coming days and weeks I
hope that Republicans will come
forward and demonstrate that
theyre really as serious about
the decit and debt as they
claim to be, Obama said.
He was having a dozen Senate
Republicans to the White House
for dinner Wednesday evening
in hopes of building a dialogue
on the budget and other topics.
After four years of trillion-dol-
lar-plus decits in his rst term,
Obamas plan projects a $973
billion decit for the current
budget year and red ink of $744
billion for the 2014 scal year
Presidents 2014 budget
mixes cuts, higher taxes
higher taxes for smokers,
wealthy paired with cuts in
Social Security and Medicare.

SCRANTON The U.S. At-
torneys Offce for the Middle
District of Pennsylvania said
Tuesday Christine Tufts, 43,
of Virginia, has agreed to plead
guilty to mail fraud.
Tufts was indicted by a fed-
eral grand jury in Scranton on
Aug. 14, 2012.
According to U.S. Attorney
Peter J. Smith, Tufts was the
owner of Foremost Settlement
Services Inc., which had an of-
fce in Moosic.
Tufts was an agent of First
American Title Insurance Co.
The indictment charged that
from 2006 to 2008 Tufts issued
title insurance on behalf of
First American to clients who
owned properties in Lackawa-
nna and Luzerne counties.
The clients took out mort-
gages to pay off prior mortgag-
es or other loans.
Tufts allegedly falsely repre-
sented to First American that
the proceeds of the mortgage
funds were being used to pay
off the prior mortgages or
other loans when, in fact, she
allegedly kept the money for
herself.
The plea agreement was
fled with the court on April 5.
The case is assigned to U.S.
District Court Judge Richard P.
Conaboy. The case was investi-
gated by the FBI and the pros-
ecution is assigned to Assistant
U.S. Attorney Lorna Graham.

Wednesday regarding Hawk-
eye Security Solutions mis-
identied the vice president
of Hawkeyes board. He is
Greg Barrouk.
PA school closure plan questioned
HUGHESTOWN Con-
cerned parents and residents
posed diffcult questions to
Pittston Area Superintendent
Michael Garzella about the
proposed closing of the Ben
Franklin Kindergarten Center in
Dupont. But theschools closing
appeared inevitable by the end
of Wednesday nights hearing.
After a presentation by archi-
tect Patrick Endler of Borton-
Lawson about the costly repairs
needed at the center, Garzella
then outlined his reasons for
proposing the closure of the
school.
He cited the cost of major
repairs, but he also said the dis-
trict had room for all students
without using that building.
Garzella then outlined a plan
in which the kindergarten and
frst-grade students would be
housed at the Primary Center,
which now serves frst- and
second-graders. The second
grade would move to the Inter-
mediate Center, which currently
contains third, fourth and ffth
grade.
In Garzellas plan, the Inter-
mediate Center would become a
second-, third- and fourth-grade
school. Fifth grade would then
be added to the middle school,
which nowhouses sixth through
eighth grade.
Garzella then quoted enroll-
ment numbers which he said
showed that the buildings could
accommodate the changes he
suggested.
Board member Kent Bratlee
asked if the plan would increase
class sizes or furlough existing
teachers.
Garzella said the same teach-
ers would teach the same groups
of students. The building as-
signment of the classes would
be the only change.
Garzella said the plan had
some benefts. Currently, one
principal and guidance coun-
selor split their time between
the Kindergarten Center and
the Primary Center. Under the
new plan, they would remain on
the Primary Center campus for
the full day. Garzella also cited
decreased transportation costs.
Garzella also said that ffth-
grade students would have ac-
cess to science labs under his
new plan.
Board President Charles
Sciandra asked Garzella if the
board should be concerned
about moving the ffth-graders
up to a new level.
Its an adjustment. Its a big
change, Garzella said. Part of
his plan is to keep ffth and sixth
grade on the frst foor of the
middle school and putting the
seventh and eighth grades on
the second foor.
Residents questions raised
concerns about safety, bullying
and transportation. The biggest
concern seemed to be over put-
ting ffth-graders in with older
students.
Its kinda like youre taking
a year of their childhood away,
resident and parent Angie Krieg-
er of Pittston said to a round of
applause when commented on
the shift of ffth-graders to the
middle school. People applaud-
ed again when she suggested
what could be done with the
money saved by the plan.
Bring music back! she said.
Board Solicitor Joseph
Saporito said the offcial deci-
sion on the school closing could
not take place until 90 days after
the hearing. One resident ques-
tioned the possibility of making
the transition in such a short pe-
riod of time.
Garzella said the transition
would begin before the offcial
decision was made, leaving the
audience to conclude that the
school closing was going for-
ward.
If we wait until the 90th day,
it will be very diffcult. We need
to make the transition before,
Garzella said
Ben Franklin Principal Terry
McAndrews remarks also un-
derlined the probability of the
school closing.
I think change is very diff-
cult to accept, she said.
She assured parents that the
change would not harm stu-
dents. We will not take away
the opportunities, she said.
We will not take away activi-
ties.
KINGSTON Wyoming
Valley West School Board fred
two custodians at Wednes-
days meeting, including one
who had pleaded guilty to
charges he put personal trash
in a district Dumpster without
permission though after the
meeting board President Gor-
don Dussinger said there were
other reasons for that termina-
tion.
The board also approved
contracts with four companies
totalling $530,424 for work on
the Wellness Center project,
which is converting a former
church near the high school
into a ftness and training cen-
ter.
The board voted unani-
mously to fre Solomon
Mceaddy and Robert Lushef-
ski. Dussinger said the two
were fred for unrelated rea-
sons and that he could not
explain further because it was
a personnel matter. Asked if
Lushefski was fred because
of his guilty plea to charges
fled by the Larksville police
for putting personal garbage
into a district trash bin at State
Street Elementary School,
Dussinger said that Lushefski
had done a lot more than
that to prompt his termina-
tion.
Dussinger said that, during
a state-mandated Loudermill
hearing held before the board
to give Lushefski a chance to
respond to board questions,
Lushefski had admitted to
other actions that justifed the
fring. Dussinger said he could
not comment further.
During the public comment
section before voting, Lushefs-
kis daughter Denise implored
the board not to deprive her
father of any benefts he might
be entitled to, such as early re-
tirement or accumulated vaca-
tion and sick day pay. She said
many other employees put
personal garbage into district
Dumpsters.
He was honest about what
he did, Denise Lushefski said.
He would bend over back-
wards for you. Taking away
his benefts, if that is in your
minds, that is wrong.
The board took no action re-
garding benefts for either ter-
minated custodian. Dussinger
said that has yet to be decided.
We havent denied or granted
any at this point, he said.
The four contracts for the
Wellness Center and the
amounts were: G.C. Wall Wall
Inc., $303,965; Aircon Ser-
vice Co., $143,620; Scranton
Electric Heating and Cool-
ing Service Inc., $31,794, and
Apollo Group Inc., $29,421.
The board approved another
$11,624 in alternate, or op-
tional, work that included
renovating changing rooms,
adding carpet to an offce and
vestibule, providing a facil-
ity management and control
system, and adding a security
system.
The district was awarded
a $250,000 state grant that
will pay for nearly half of the
total.

PETE G. WILCOX/THE TIMES LEADER
The Wilkes-Barre Fire Department river rescue team
prepares to set out onto the Susquehanna River from
the boat launch at Nesbitt Park on Wednesday to
search for a missing kayaker who was later found safe
at home. Carlos Torres, 65, had gone kayaking in the
Susquehanna River on Wednesday morning. He was
reported missing by his family around 7:10 p.m. after
they could not locate him at the meeting spot they
had designated. Rescue crews from Hanover Township
and Wilkes-Barre were dispatched to search the river
and found the empty kayak near the old Carey Avenue
bridge in Plymouth, said Wilkes-Barre police Lt. Mar-
cella Lendacky. The search was called off as authorities
determined the kayak had been pulled to shore and
saw footprints leading away from it. Lendacky said Tor-
res was located at his home around 9:30 p.m. He had
apparently walked there from Plymouth.
PPL: Nuke plant procedures improved
SALEM TWP. Offcials
with the Nuclear Regulatory
Commission met Wednesday
at a public meeting with of-
fcials from the nuclear power
plant near Berwick to discuss
plant operations last year and
address issues that put the
plant under additional over-
sight.
Although PPL operated the
Susquehanna Steam Electric
Station safely in 2012, accord-
ing to the NRC, the plant had
three unplanned shutdowns.
Mel Gray, branch chief for
the NRCs Division of Reactor
Projects, explained that Reac-
tor Unit 1 already was under
scrutiny in 2012 because of is-
sues related to a fooding event
on July 16, 2010, and because
of previous unplanned shut-
downs. Additional inspections
in 2012 determined PPL ade-
quately addressed those issues
and Unit 1 was returned to a
normal level of oversight.
However, recent informa-
tion related to unplanned
shutdowns in the fourth quar-
ter of 2012 for Reactor Unit 2
bumped Unit 2 into the cate-
gory in which Unit 1 had been.
The NRC determined two of
the shutdowns were of a com-
plicated nature, meaning they
required additional action from
plant operators, Gray said.
A Nov. 9 shutdown resulted
from a problem with relatively
new electrical equipment; a
Dec. 19 shutdown involved a
valve that wouldnt open; and a
loose wire apparently led to a
Dec. 15 shutdown.
Tim Rausch, senior vice
president and chief nuclear off-
cer at the plant, said staff there
completely understand and
own the issues the NRC high-
lighted in the annual assess-
ment for 2012, and there was
no ambiguity for us in what
remains for us to complete.
The actions underway to
improve operations are being
carried out by all employees
working as a team, not just by
management, Rausch said.
Plant manager Jeff Helsel
outlined initiatives that man-
agement has put in place to
improve operations and safe-
ty.
Helsel said peer-to-peer
coaching has improved, as have
plant processes and procedures
since offcials began bench-
marking comparing them
to practices and procedures at
a group of other nuclear power
plants it began working with
about a year ago.
Fifteen of the other 101
nuclear reactors in the United
States are currently in the
same Level 2 category as
PPLs Unit 2, also facing more
NRC scrutiny; two are at Level
3 and one is at Level 4; none is
in the worst category at Level
5, which is called the Unaccept-
able Performance category.
Levels of NRC oversight in-
crease with each higher level.
Susquehanna Steam Electric
Station near Berwick still
under scrutiny of NRC.

MISSING KAYAKER FOUND
court brief
Janet Donovan stands up with Nicole Johnson on Wednesday during the public hearing in
Pittston Area on the possible closure of the Ben Franklin Kindergarten Center.
PoLiticAL brief
WILKES-BARRETWP. Adecision
on whether the Mohegan Sun Arena at
Casey Plaza will host NCAA womens
basketball championship tournament
games should be made soon, said the
general manager of the facility.
Earlier this year the arena bid on
hosting the 2014 Eastern Regional Di-
vision I, and Rebecca Bonnevier, gen-
eral manager, said it had a good chance
of landing the games.
She told board members of the Lu-
zerne County Convention Center Au-
thority, which oversees the arena, that
she was awaiting word.
I think it will be in the next few
days, Bonnevier said.
The board also is awaiting the
compl et i on
of a $20,000
f e a s i b i l i t y
study on how
best to use
the planned
20,000-square-
foot expansion
of the arena.
Donna Cu-
pinski, board
chairwoman, said Restaurant Advisory
Services still has some work to do. The
board approved hiring the company
from Paoli in February for the approxi-
mate six-week study.
Well have it at the next meeting to
share with everybody, Cupinski said.
The board approved the purchase
of door hardware and a new boiler to
replace parts and equipment worn out
from daily use at the nearly 14-year-old
facility.
Arena ofcials sought ve bids for
the door hardware, Bonnevier said. The
lowest bid for hinges was $1,675 from
Mesko Glass, and Kelly Bros. had the
lowest bid of $4,644 for the hardware,
including crashbars and closers. The
total cost approved by the board was
$6,319.
Mechanical Services submitted the
lowest bid of $18,660 for the boiler.
Bonnevier said four quotes were ob-
tained.
The board also approved the instal-
lation of removable bollards or posts
on the pedestrian bridges to prevent
vehicles from driving on them.
Cupinski said there is money left
over from a state Department of Com-
munity and Economic Development
grant for the bridges that can be used
on the bollards. The lowest bid for the
material was approximately $6,000,
nearly the exact amount of the remain-
ing money from the grant, Cupinski
said. The board approved a cost not to
exceed $6,100.
A bill that passed the state Senate
this week could change the way rabies
vaccinations are given to some house-
hold pets.
Senate Bill 155, sponsored by state
Sen. Stewart Greenleaf, exempts dogs
and cats from receiving the vaccina-
tion if it could be detrimental to the
health of the animal. The bill passed
Monday, 48-2, with supporting votes
from area senators Lisa Baker, John
Yudichak and John Blake. It will be
referred to the state House.
For years, pet owners in the state
have been required to vaccinate cats
and dogs older than 3 months, and
booster vaccinations are due every
three years.
Under the bill, an exemption from
vaccination against rabies may be
granted if a licensed veterinarian ex-
amined the dog or cat and determines
that is would be medically contraindi-
cated to vaccinate. Pet owners would
receive a one-year exemption, after
which their animal would have to be
re-examined.
According to information from
Greenleafs ofce, the change would
put Pennsylvania in line with 17 other
states that provide an exemption to
the rabies vaccine.
The Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention describes rabies as a
virus that infects the central nervous
system, ultimately causing disease
in the brain and death. The CDC
recommends that unvaccinated pets
exposed to a rabid animal should be
euthanized immediately and that ani-
mals with expired vaccinations should
be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.

Marywood nursing defended
Marywood University is appealing
a decision by the National League of

Manager Rob-
ert Lawton
brought up
the timeline
at Tuesdays
council meet-
ing because
Counc i l man
Stephen A. Ur-
ban has been
publicly questioning why its
taking so long to get the money
to ood-damaged municipali-
ties.
The U.S. Department of Hous-
ing and Urban Development,
which is providing the funds to
the county, made it clear the
funding is last-resort money
for work that wont be covered
by insurance or other govern-
ment funds, Lawton said. That
mandate has forced the county
to ensure all other funding
sources have been exhausted.
The federal agency indicated
spending of the special funds
might not wrap up for seven
years after the disaster, or in
September 2018, Lawton said.
County Community Develop-
ment Director Andrew Reilly
said some people have a mis-
conception the funds were sup-
posed to be quickly pushed out
on the street.
He gave an example of why
waiting is necessary. Shick-
shinny recently was awarded
$323,498 in gambling funds for
the Bartoli Bridge renovation,
and that project also was in the
boroughs request for the county
ood recovery funds, he said.
The project must be removed
from the boroughs application
for county funding, he said.
A county panel is reviewing
requests from 12 municipalities
and other government entities
for funds from the initial federal
award of $15.7 million. A sepa-
rate screening process will be
necessary for the recent second
earmark of $9.7 million because
the federal government has set
different parameters on how
that money may be spent, Reilly
said.
The panel plans to submit
proposed municipal projects to
Lawton within a month, Reilly
said. Lawton will then review
the plan and submit it to council
for its approval.
Some of the funding also will
be awarded to property own-

WILKES-BARRE A 24-inch water
main running through a River Street
bridge ruptured early Wednesday
morning causing customers in the vi-
cinity to lose water for the day.
Susan Turcmanovich, a spokesman
for Pennsylvania American Water, said
leak detection crews were dispatched
after reports of low water pressure at 4
a.m. Wednesday. By mid-morning the
rupture was at full blast, with water
coming right out of an arch bridge that
was recently repaired by PennDOT.
Water company crews worked
throughout the day to stop the leak,
but it was not expected to be repaired,
and water service restored, until 6 a.m.
today.
Engineers from the Pennsylvania
Department of Transportation and a
bridge inspector were on scene access-
ing damage to the bridge.
James May, PennDOT spokesman,
said the agency inspected the bridge for
structural damage. They dont see any
issues right now, May said.
He said the construction of the
structure is like a bridge on top of the
bridge and the water main is located
between 15 and 20 inches from the top
of the arch. Trafc will be reduced to
a single lane for the foreseeable future.
The bridge that carries River Street
across Mill Creek near the Wilkes Barre
General Hospital remained open to traf-
c but was down to a single lane with
aggers directing vehicles.
Turcmanovich said water company
ofcials were trying to bring water in
from Plains Township lines to serve the
businesses that were affected, includ-
ing McDonalds, the Waterfront Com-
plex and the Riverfront Jazz Cafe.
She said no residential customers
were affected by the rupture.

sewer
concerns
addressed
Ofcial says the way that work
is being done might result in
extra expenses for residents.
By TOMHUNTINGTON
NUANGOLA Borough
Council continued discussion
about the installation phase
of the new sewer system Tues-
day night as council Chairman
John Kochan cited what he
called a duplication of work
involving the placement of
grinder pumps on residential
property.
The work as is being ex-
ecuted now will result in
homeowners having to engage
in duplicate excavation and
sustain an extra cost at the
time of tap-in into the system,
he said. Thats unfair, Kochan
said.
But sewer authority Chair-
man Ray Shirk said contrac-
tor Wexcon is following the
systems design. Those people
who have a problem with the
project, or have experienced
any damage to their on-site
systems, should contact proj-
ect engineer Dan Loughran at
the Quad3 Group in Wilkes-
Barre, he said.
Councilman Ted Vancosky,
who is authority treasurer, in
his report said Wexcon has
completed 29 percent of its
phase of the project at an ex-
penditure of $1.3 million. Doli,
which is installing the pipeline
between the borough and the
Mountain Top area sewage
treatment plant, is 44 percent
complete with its work, and
has been paid $461,000, he
said.
Vancosky also said $670,000
has been spent for the delivery
of 267 grinder pumps.
In other discussion:
Steve Beryla, zoning of-
cer, reported two rundown
dwellings, 17 Vandermark Ave.
and 3 Summit St., might have
to be scheduled for demoli-
tion.
Chuck Gutton was ap-
proved to ll a vacancy on the
zoning hearing board; Leila
Tucker was chosen as an alter-
nate. John DiRico was elected
to the planning commission.
Councilwoman Regina
Plodwick said she has learned
67 acres of Earth Conservancy
land in the east end is being
considered for residential de-
velopment. Reports of poten-
tial of development coinciding
with the sewer system might
create the need for the bor-
ough to revise its zoning laws,
Kochan said.
Sewer authority Sec-
retary Sally DiRico said
delinquent notices have
been mailed erroneously to
residents over expenses for
wastewater pumping. Coun-
cilman Joe Tucker said there
was a aw in the system that
will be rectied.
Kochan convened an ex-
ecutive session of council for
business that was stated as
the Milnes Engineering litiga-
tion and another pending liti-
gation case that Kochan and
solicitor Dan Lanza declined
to discuss.
WASHINGTON The
Obama administration is ex-
pected to give Syrian rebels
broader nonlethal military
assistance, including body
armor and night-vision gog-
gles, while stopping short of
providing weapons to forces
ghting Syrian President
Bashar Assad.
The timing and scope of
the stepped-up aid package
is unclear. President Barack
Obama has not given nal ap-
proval and an announcement
is not imminent, according
to a senior administration of-
cial, who requested anonym-
ity because the ofcial was
not authorized to discuss the
internal deliberations.
Secretary of State John Ker-
ry, in London on Wednesday
to meet with Syrian opposi-
tion leaders, hinted this week
at quick action, saying broad-
er assistance for the rebels
has been front and center in
administration discussions in
recent days.
Im not sure what the
schedule is, but I do believe
that its important for us to try
to continue to put the pres-
sure on President Assad and
to try to change his calcula-
tion, Kerry said.
With Syrias civil war in its
third year, the U.S. and its al-
lies are struggling to nd ways
to stem the violence that, ac-
cording to the United Nations,
has killed more than 70,000
people. Despite growing inter-
national pressure, Assad has
managed to hang on to power
far longer than the Obama ad-
ministration rst expected.
Obama has resisted pres-
sure to arm the rebels, in part
out of fear that the weapons
could fall into the hands of
ghters who have allied with
Islamic extremists.
Underscoring that concern,
the leader of the most for-
midable rebel group in Syria
pledged allegiance Wednes-
day to al-Qaida, though he dis-
tanced himself from a claim
that his Islamic extremist fac-
tion had merged with the ter-
rorist networks Iraqi branch.
JERUSALEM Israeli
authorities have proposed
establishing a new section
at the Western Wall where
men and women can pray
together, a groundbreaking
initiative that would mark a
signicant victory by liberal
streams of Judaism in their
long quest for recognition.
The proposal is aimed at
ending turmoil surround-
ing the Orthodox establish-
ments monopoly over the
site, highlighted by the ar-
rests of female worshippers
who prayed while perform-
ing religious rituals the Or-
thodox say are reserved for
men.
One Western Wall for one
Jewish people, said Natan
Sharansky, chairman of the
quasi-governmental Jewish
Agency and mastermind of
the proposal. He expressed
hope that the site will once
again be a symbol of unity
among the Jewish people,
and not one of discord and
strife.
While it still needs gov-
ernment approval, the pro-
posal already risks upsetting
Israels powerful ultra-Or-
thodox community as well
as the Western Walls Mus-
lim neighbors, reecting the
explosive mix of religious
sensitivities in the area.
The Western Wall, a re-
taining wall of the biblical
Temple compound, is the
holiest site where Jews can
pray. Currently, it is divided
into mens and womens sec-
tions. Orthodox rabbis, who
control Israels religious
institutions, oppose mixed
prayers.
Under the plan, Israel
would create a permanent
area for mixed-gender and
women-led prayer. It would
be situated in an area on a
lower level where limited
mixed prayer already is al-
lowed, but which mainly
serves as an archaeological
site.
The area would be reno-
vated with a platform that
would place it at the same
level as the rest of the West-
ern Wall plaza and operate
around the clock, like the
mens and womens sections.
It also would be easily ac-
cessible from the main en-
trance to the plaza. Like the
other sections, it would be
stocked with Torah scrolls
and prayer books. Current-
ly, worshippers must bring
their own prayer materials.
Rabbi Gilad Kariv, who
heads Israels Reform Jew-
ish movement, said that the
proposal could become a
watershed moment for lib-
eral Judaism.
WASHINGTON The nan-
cially beleaguered Postal Service
backpedaled on its plan to end
Saturday mail delivery, conced-
ing Wednesday that its gamble
to compel congressional approv-
al had failed.
With limited options for sav-
ing money, the governing board
said the agency should reopen
negotiations with unions to low-
er labor costs and consider rais-
ing mail prices.
Yet the board also said its not
possible for the Postal Service to
meet its goals for reduced spend-
ing without altering the delivery
schedule. Delaying responsible
changes, the board said, only
makes it more likely that the
Postal Service may become a
burden to taxpayers.
Congressional reaction was
mixed, mirroring differences
that have stalled a needed postal
overhaul for some time. Some
lawmakers had urged the agen-
cy to forge ahead with its plan,
while others had said it lacked
the legal authority to do so.
The Postal Service said in Feb-
ruary that it planned to switch
to ve-day-a-week deliveries be-
ginning in August for everything
except packages as a way to hold
down losses.
That announcement was
risky. The agency was asking
Congress to drop from spending
legislation the longtime ban on
ve-day-only delivery.
Congress did not do that
when it passed a spending mea-
sure last month.
By including restrictive lan-
guage Congress has prohib-
ited implementation of a new
national delivery schedule for
mail and package, according to
the board.
Disappointed but not wanting
to disregard the law, the board
directed the Postal Service to
delay putting in place the new
delivery schedule until Congress
passes legislation that gives the
agency the authority to imple-
ment a nancially appropriate
and responsible delivery sched-
ule.
The board made the decision
in a closed meeting Tuesday.
This is good news for rural
communities, businesses, se-
niors, veterans and others who
depend on consistent and timely
delivery of the mail, said Sen.
Bernie Sanders, I-Vt.
But GOP Rep. Darrell Issa
of California, chairman of the
House Oversight and Govern-
ment Reform Committee, be-
moaned the decision to back
away from a delivery schedule
that polling indicates the Ameri-
can people understand and sup-
port.

PYONGYANG, NORTH KOREA
Tranquility replaces tension
As the world braced for a provoca-
tive missile launch by North Korea,
with newscasts worldwide playing up
tensions on the Korean Peninsula, the
center of the stormwas strangely calm.
The focus in Pyongyang on Wednes-
day was less on preparing for war and
more on beautifying the capital ahead
of the nations biggest holiday: the April
15 birthday of the nations founder,
Kim Il Sung. Soldiers put down their
ries to blanket the barren ground with
sod and students picked up shovels to
help plant trees.
But the impoverished, tightly con-
trolled nation that has historically used
major holidays to draw the worlds
attention by showing off its military
power could well mark the occasion
by testing a missile designed to strike
U.S. military installations in Japan and
Guam.

Imposter guilty in killing

The case went to the jury late Tues-

Weiner mulls mayoral run
Former U.S. Rep. Anthony Weiner,
who resigned over a sexting scandal in

The Democrat told The New York
Times Magazine in a story posted on-
line Wednesday that its nowor maybe
never for me but acknowledged that
its a long shot because some people
just dont have room for a second nar-
rative about me.
Weiner said that his political com-
mittee spent more than $100,000 on
polling and research by Obamas long-
time pollster, David Binder, but said
he doesnt know when hell decide on
entering the race.
Weiner represented a Brooklyn-

NEW YORK U.S. doc-
tors are prescribing enough
antibiotics to give them to
4 out of 5 Americans every
year, an alarming pace that
suggests they are being
overused, a new govern-
ment study nds.
Overuse is one reason
antibiotics are losing their
punch, making infections
harder to treat. The report
released Wednesday gives
the rst detailed look at us-
age of these medicines in
every state and nds it high-
est in the South and Appa-
lachia.
It sounds high, said
Keith Rodvold, a professor
of pharmacy practice at the
University of Illinois at Chi-
cago.
There is no scientic con-
sensus on an appropriate
level of antibiotic prescrib-
ing. But some experts said
the new studys results are
disturbing, and that rates
are probably excessive even
in the states with the low-
est antibiotic prescription
levels.
Pennsylvania fell in the
mid-range, according to the
report, which indicated it
had 0.8 prescriptions per
person for 2010.
Antibiotics have been
commonly available since
the 1940s, and have done
wonders at saving patients
with infections ranging
from pneumonia to sexually
spread diseases. But bacte-
ria have increasingly gained
the power to shrug off anti-
biotics.
Experts say chances of
resistance increase when
antibiotics are not used
long enough or are taken for
the wrong reasons, allow-
ing bacteria to survive and
adapt. The Centers for Dis-
ease control and Prevention
is tracking at least 20 strains
of resistant bacteria.
CDC researchers conduct-
ed the new study, analyzing
a national prescription drug
database for 2010. The nd-
ings are being published in
todays New England Jour-
nal of Medicine.
Other studies have fo-
cused on antibiotic prescrip-
tions for specic groups
such as Medicare patients.
This is the rst to look at it
for all Americans.
Doctors and other health
care providers prescribed
258 million courses of anti-
biotics in 2010, for a popula-
tion just shy of 309 million,
the researchers found. That
translates to 833 antibiotic
prescriptions for every 1,000
people, on average.

Despite the danger the dis-
ease carries, the proposed bill is
a positive change, SPCA of Lu-
zerne County Shelter Manager
Cindy Starke said.
I dont see anything wrong
with it. If the animal is going
to be harmed by being vac-
cinated, thats not good, she
said. The original rabies law
was written in 1986, and things
have changed signicantly since
then.
Veterinarian Dr. Inayatullah
Kathio, of the Pittston Animal
Hospital, said he has vaccinated
over 50,000 animals, and less
than 0.5 percent of those he has
vaccinated have had adverse re-
actions.
Kathio said some animals
might experience anaphylaxis,
a severe allergic reaction result-
ing in a swelling of the face and
possible choking. Animals with
heart, liver or autoimmune dis-
eases would most likely be ex-
empt from vaccination due to a
threat to their health.
Because of the threat a vac-
cine might present, Kathio said
he would support a change
in the law that provides for a
case-by-case exemption. Its
good for the welfare of the ani-
mal, he said, adding that any
animal that is given an exemp-
tion should be monitored more
closely by its owner to prevent
contact with wildlife.
Domestic animals accounted
for just 8 percent of all rabid
animals reported in the United
States in 2010, according to the
CDC.
Rabies is attributed to only
two or three deaths in humans
each year. The CDC does not
list any rabies cases in Penn-
sylvania residents from 1995 to
2011. Progress in slowing the
spread of the virus is attributed
to animal control and vaccina-
tion programs that started in
the 1940s and the development
of effective human rabies vac-
cines.
Starke said that exemptions
would likely be infrequent, at
best. Veterinarians ultimately
will know whats best for your
animals, and the exemption cer-
tainly doesnt lessen the need
for the vaccine, she said.
It is extremely important
that you have your pet vaccinat-
ed for rabies, Starke said. Even
if you always keep your pet in-
doors, accidents happen.

ers, who will be invited to apply
around July 1, Lawton said.
Reilly said he expects the
residential portion will fund re-
pairs and the raising of utilities
in properties on government
buyout request lists that wont
be included in the latest wave
of buyout funding. The Federal
Emergency Management Agen-
cy only recently determined
which pending buyout requests
would be funded, Reilly said.
Some municipalities request-
ed the county ood recovery
funding for additional buyouts,
but Reilly said that option must
be reviewed.
We have to see what the need
is, but we anticipate the lions
share of residential funding to
go to rehabilitation, he said.
Urban said Tuesday it is
downright wrong to make citi-
zens wait years to receive fund-
ing.
He also pointed to a deterio-
rating railroad bridge spanning
the Susquehanna River inExeter
Township as a project in press-
ing need of demolition funding.
Ofcials fear the bridge, owned
by Leo Glodzik, of LAG Towing
in Duryea, will collapse and cre-
ate a dam on the river.
Urban said he is certain no
other funding is available to de-
molish the bridge. There are
things that could be done imme-
diately, so the answer that was
received tonight to me is unsat-
isfactory, he said.
Reilly said county staffers
want to remove the bridge and
are seeking some of the county
recovery funds for that purpose.
However, he said the county
proposal must undergo the
same review process as the mu-
nicipal proposals.
Lawton said the federal gov-
ernment also awarded recovery
funds to Dauphin County and
the state, and Luzerne County
is at the same stage or ahead of
them in planning how the mon-
ey will be spent.
FLOOD
RICE TWP. A number
of irate residents attended
Tuesdays regular meeting of
the Board of Supervisors to
express their displeasure with
the boards recent actions re-
garding the cancellation of the
annual Easter egg hunt.
Several residents said the
board sponsored an Easter
Bunny re truck ride and
wave on March 30 that was
expected to visit the entire
township. However, they said,
only subdivisions within the
municipality were provided
the holiday treat, while chil-
dren in other parts of the town-
ship were neglected.
Board members apologized
and stressed that proper plan-
ning would be done for Easter
2014.
In other business:
The board announced, to
the delight of several town-
ship homeowners who were
on hand, that the Heslop Road
repaving project will begin in
late April.
Bids were opened for the
Ice Lake restoration project,
but the matter was tabled to al-
low township solicitor William
Higgs the chance to review the
bids.
The board stated that
the planned merger of certain
Wright, Dorrance and Rice
township re departments will
be an 18-month process to en-
sure an efcient transition fo-
cusing on residents safety.

Easter Bunny event criticized
Dupont ponders fate of Pittston Area school building
DUPONT Borough Coun-
cil and residents on Tuesday dis-
cussed ways to fund continued
improvements within the com-
munity and eyed what might
happen to a school building in
the borough if the Pittston Area
School District decides to close
it.
Borough ofcials are keeping
an eye on developments regard-
ing the possible closure of the
Ben Franklin Kindergarten Cen-
ter.
Council President Stanley
Knick said his hope is to see the
school building converted to ac-
commodate senior citizen hous-
ing if the school is ultimately
closed and the borough can ob-
tain the property.
Councilman Bernie Zielinski
referred to the original agree-
ment that granted the land to
the district, saying he believed
the borough is entitled to the
rst opportunity to regain that
land if were to again become
available.
The school had been home to
the Dupont Elementary School
before the absorption of Dupont
schools into the Pittston Area
School District.
Dupont ofcials have consult-
ed with county and state repre-
sentatives about funding and
hope to soon meet with district
ofcials as well.
In other matters, Mayor Dan-
iel Lello advised community
members to be alert, proactive
and vigilant after a string of
break-ins and incidents of van-
dalism on and around the 100
block of Main Street.
Police investigation into the
crimes is ongoing, so extensive
details were not presented, but
Lello said an aware populace is
the best defense against petty
crime.
Also on Tuesday, the coun-
cil unanimously voted to allow
a Pittston liquor license to be
transferred into Dupont so that
restaurateur Amouri Oliviera
can use it when he opens Conti-
nental Bar and Grill at 317 Main
St.
Oliviera has previously found
success founding the Ipanema
Grill, the regions rst eatery
to offer Brazilian-style rodizio
steakhouse faire. Continental
Bar and Grill, however, will be
far more casual, featuring bil-
liards and occasional live music
as well as catering.

A bill sponsored by state Sen.
Lisa Baker mandating all county
directors of Veterans Affairs be
accredited as a veteran service
ofcer by a national or state
accrediting body gained unani-
mous approval in a House com-
mittee Wednesday and will now
be considered by the full House.
Senate Bill 304 was meant to
bring uniformity to a position re-
sponsible for interacting with peo-
ple who wore a military uniform.
The bill, which the full Senate
approved 50-0 on Feb. 13, was
supported 25-0 by the House
Veterans Affairs and Emergency
Preparedness Committee. It
spells out the requirements to
serve in the position and delin-
eates training requirements and
sets minimum standards.
If the bill is approved by the
House and signed by the gover-
nor, the requirements would go
into effect for all people hired
by counties to the position from
that point on. A person who has
been appointed as a county di-
rector of veterans affairs prior
to the effective date will have
one year to attain the training
and certica-
tion required
by the bill.
Acceptabl e
training organi-
zations include
The American
Legion, Vet-
eran of Foreign
Wars organizations and the U.S.
Department of Veterans Affairs,
said Diane McNaughton, direc-
tor of the Senate Committee on
Veterans Affairs and Emergency
Preparedness, which is chaired
by Baker, R-Lehman Township.
McNaughton said that across
the state counties have their
own guidelines for this ofce
and in some instances veterans
arent getting the same services
or access in one county that they
may get the next county over. So
this bill would bring equal foot-
ing in this regard to each of the
states 67 counties.
Jim Spagnola, a member of
the Pennsylvania State Asso-
ciation of County Directors of
Veterans Affairs who holds that
position in Luzerne County,
said the vast majority of county
directors are trained and certi-
ed annually right now, but
he agrees there are some who
arent and he believes an across-
the-board training mandate is
a worthwhile venture to better
serve those who have served.

WILKES-BARRE Sister
Miriam Stadulis said she didnt
know Jim Sobieski, but she
knew of him.
Thats why the former direc-
tor of the McGlynn Learning
Center attended Wednesdays
memorial service for Sobieski,
who died last week. Sobieski,
61, worked in the Mature Work-
ers Program at REACH, the
now-closed drop-in center for
the areas homeless, and he vol-
unteered at the St. Vincent de
Paul Kitchen.
About 150 people attended
the service held at St. Stephens
Episcopal Church, where So-
bieski continued working in the
food pantry and clothing closet.
From what Ive been told
and heard here today, Jim was a
very beautiful and gifted man,
Stadulis said. He was a blessing
a gift to all of us. He gave of
himself selessly.
Stefanie Wolownik, former
REACH director, delivered the
eulogy and she said it was an
honor to have known Sobieski.
Noting she could tell tales
out of school now, she said So-
bieski worked his regular four-
hour shift and then volunteered
at the kitchen and returned to
volunteer at REACH. He did
anything he could to help peo-
ple, she said. Thats the legacy
of Jim. And he did it quietly, but
fervently.
S o b i e s k i ,
who was home-
less for a brief
time himself,
would arrive
early at the
center every
day to read the
newspaper s
police blotter and obituaries,
Wolownik said. He wanted to
see who got in trouble and who
wouldnt be getting in trouble
anymore, she said.
After REACHclosed, Sobieski
would let homeless people in to
shower or to have a cup of coffee,
Wolownik said. Service was his
duty, she said. He knew what
folks needed and he gave what
was available for him to give.
Debra Kellerman, director of
the St. Stephens food pantry
and clothing closet, said Sobies-
ki always helped. Jim found
a home in our hearts, she said.
And he found a family that sur-
rounds him now.
The Rev. Daniel Gunn relayed
a statement from Monsignor
Joseph Kelly, executive director
of Catholic Social Services, the
agency that oversee the St. Vin-
cent de Paul Kitchen in Wilkes-
Barre. Jimmy Sobieski will be
greatly missed, Kelly said in the
statement. He made a differ-
ence in peoples lives for years.
His passing has left a hole in our
hearts.
Gunn called Sobieski a good
man a great man, who lived
his faith outside of these walls.
Sobieski died April 3 at home
in Wilkes-Barre of unknown
causes. His family was not able
to attend the service.
Friends remember JimSobieski
for service to areas homeless
Once homeless himself, he
volunteered at St. Vincent de
paul Kitchen and REACh.

Keith David Poplaski
March 5, 2013
K
eith David Poplaski, 22, of
Edwardsville, passed away on
Tuesday, March 5, 2013.
Born July 14, 1990, Keith was
the very loving great-grandson
of the late Susan and Raymond
Poplaski, grandson of the late
Frances and Michael McGree and
forever soulmate of the late Chris-
tina Givens.
Keith is survived by his father,
Raymond Anthony Poplaski III,
Seattle, Wash.; mother, Ann Ma-
rie Poplaski; brother, Kristopher,
and grandparents, Rose and Ray-
mond Poplaski Jr., all of Edwards-
ville; uncle Joseph and his wife,

Susan; uncles Edward, Mike Mc-
Gree, Ronald McGree, Edwards-
ville; aunt Carole, uncle Armando
Guerriero, California; lifelong
friend, Talyn Brown; and his faith-
ful dog and companion, Yager.
Keith played and was very tal-
ented at the guitar, following har-
monic drums, but his true passion
was for the banjo.
He loved music, skateboard-
ing, snowboarding, concerts and
the great outdoors. What Keith
really loved most of all was the
freedomto do something newand
exciting each day.
Growing up in and around Ed-
wardsville, Keith made plenty of
friends and never stopped making
them.
He was a very outgoing individ-
ual whom everyone took a liking
to. In 2008, he moved to Seattle
with his father and uncle. It was
the beautiful adventurous place
he had wanted and needed to see.
Keith turned into quite the free
spirit out there. He sawhowbeau-
tiful Seattle was and realized that
there are so many new and excit-
ing things to see and explore in
this country.
He decided to hit the road and
travel the country. He hopped
trains and hitchhiked all through-
out the states just so he could see
and experience something new
every day.
Every day was an adventure for
him; he traveled with friends from
all over, his dog, Yager, and his
loving girlfriend, Christina Giv-
ens, whom he had met in Reno,
Nev. He nally had found himself
and who he really was, the free,
friendly, loving, exciting and ad-
venturous Keith. He died doing
what he loved, and is more free
than ever.
He was loved by all and will be
greatly missed but never forgot-
ten.
He left this earth way too soon
but had lived a very fullling life.
Keith, Christina and Dylon, we
love you very much and you will
be in our hearts forever.
A memorial service will be
held at 1 p.m. Saturday at the
Kopicki Funeral Home, 263 Zer-
bey Ave., Kingston. Friends may

BUTLER TWP. Township
supervisors on Tuesday night
approved a loan guarantee of
$185,000 for CAN DO Inc.s
installation of a trafc light on
state Route 309 and Corporate
Drive.
The funds will serve as col-
lateral for the project for traf-
c control beginning this fall,
when the magnet school of
the Hazleton Area School Dis-
trict starts classes in a building
within the Corporate Center.
Supervisor Ransom Young
said he had some reservation
about CAN DO having an ap-
parent lack of funds for the
project. If CAN DO cant oat
its own loan, Young said, it
doesnt speak well for its nan-
cial status.
The loan guarantee, accord-
ing to the ordinance presented
to the supervisors, is scheduled
to come from the townships
state Liquid Fuels funds.
After some elaboration by
solicitor Don Karpowich, the
supervisors voted to approve
the ordinance. The township,
Karpowich said, will have to
absorb the cost of maintaining
the light, while CAN DO will
pay for the installation.
In another matter, acting on
the recommendation of the
chief of the Valley Regional
Fire and Rescue organization,
supervisors put in place a
burning ban. Chairman Brian
Kisenwhether said the ban en-
tails open burning, burning in
containers as well as so-called
control burns because of this
months dry weather condi-
tions.
A ne of up to $300 could be
imposed against violators.
The ban is effective immedi-
ately and will remain in force
until the region receives a sub-
stantial amount of rain, he said.
In other business:
The supervisors approved
the purchase of a new police
car from Fuessner Ford for
$39,845. The purchase will be
through the state COSTARS
program.
The supervisors decided to
spend $14,495.50 for a financial
software system from Freedom
Systems and BTS. They also
approved $2,195 for annual
support expenses.

W
hile AmericAs
longstanding love
affair with fossil fu-
els is far from over,
Americas more recent embrace
of renewable energy is going
strong.
At rst glance, these would
seem to be contradictory con-
clusions.
For example, boosters of wind
and solar power are determined
to reduce fossil fuel use and to
replace it with cleaner-burning
renewables. This is happening
but only to a degree.
meanwhile, many oil and
natural gas boosters dismiss
wind turbines and biofuels as
niche products that dont really
supply that much power to keep
the lights on or vehicles rolling
down the open road. Thats true,
up to a point.
U.s. energy production hit an
all-time high last year of 79.182
quadrillion BTUs. That number
has moved steadily higher over
the last ve years, after plateau-
ing at around 70 quadrillion
BTUs annually over the two de-
cades before 2007.
Figures from the U.s. energy
information Administration
paint a nuanced and fascinat-
ing picture of power produc-
tion. The agency reports that
between 2007 and 2012:
Natural gas production
jumped 25 percent, largely be-
cause its cost has plummeted.
Coal production slumped
about 15 percent to its lowest
level in a quarter century. coal
has been displaced by natural
gas at many power plants. The
net sum of this trade has been
very positive nancially for con-
sumers and for air quality
around the country because us-
ing natural gas produces fewer
harmful emissions than burning
coal does.
Thanks largely to more ex-
ploration in North Dakota and
Texas, oil production grew 28
percent to its highest level since
1995.
Meanwhile, wind energy
production surged 340 percent.
Thats a signicant accomplish-
ment toward producing cleaner-
burning power. however, wind
energy still was just 1.7 percent
of the countrys total power pro-
duction in 2012.
As for solar power, its pro-
duction has almost tripled since
2007, yet it remains a statisti-
cally insignicant part of the na-
tions power grid.
summed up, the pro-fossil
fuel crowd can point to the fact
that coal, natural gas and oil still
make up 78 percent of total U.s.
power production, while renew-
ables are only 11 percent. The
remainder comes from nuclear
power.
But environmentalists can
counter that energy production
from renewable sources has ris-
en 100 percent over the last 40
years, while fossil fuel produc-
tion has limped ahead by just 7
percent.
its encouraging that public
investments in renewable power
especially wind energy
have begun to pay off in measur-
able terms. They deserve to be
continued in Washington and
the states, with Kansas especial-
ly well positioned to reap more
benets.

P
rogrAms encourag-
ing teenagers to develop
healthy eating habits
have popped up all over
the country in recent years:
Project eAT (eating Among
Teens), eat, Think and Be Ac-
tive! and The Power of choice:
helping Youth make healthy
Eating and Fitness Decisions,
to name a few.
They dont seem to be help-
ing. Ave-year study by the Uni-
versity of oklahomas school of
Public health shows 80 percent
of U.s. teens are eating their
way to heart disease. looking
at more than 5,000 teens, the
study found less than 1 percent
of those surveyed ate a diet con-
sidered ideal for preventing car-
diovascular disease. The Ameri-
can heart Association, which
published the study, called the
results unacceptably high.
The heart Association leader-
ship calls for broad social and
cultural changes as the only
way to keep the United states
from ever-increasing health care
costs as todays teens become
tomorrows middle-aged adults.
The association has set a goal of
reducing deaths from cardiovas-
cular diseases and stroke by 20
percent by 2020. Just slowing
the growth of obesity would be
signicant. But, so far, nobody
has gured out how to get teen-
agers to exercise regularly
even a brisk walk a day would
do wonders and replace fast
food, pizza and soft drinks with
fruit, vegetables and whole
grains, at least most of the time.
All the health insurance reform
in the world wont bring down
health care costs if Americas
teens not to mention their
parents dont take better care
of themselves.

Prepare for Global Employee Health and Fitness Month
HElpiNg employees
get healthier and help-
ing to curb the rising
cost of health care
should be priorities
for all employers. And
as we approach may,
designated as global
employee health and Fitness month, its
the perfect time for employers to start
taking a more active role in their employ-
ees health.
Not only will your employees and their
families benet, but your companys bot-
tom line can get healthier, too.
Take a look at the facts. The centers
for Disease Control and prevention
(CDC) have found that approximately 75
percent of employers health care costs
come from treating chronic, but prevent-
able, conditions brought on by obesity,
high blood pressure, high cholesterol and
lack of physical activity.
it makes sense that unt employees
are sicker, and that sicker employees cost
businesses more money.
According to a recent gallup poll, un-
healthy workers are costing U.s. employ-
ers approximately $153 billion annually.
But what can an employer do to rem-
edy the situation? instituting a strong em-
ployee health and wellness program can
make a big difference in the overall health
of an organization and its workforce.
in fact, the Wellness council of Ameri-
ca (WelcoA) previously estimated that
for every dollar spent on employee health
initiatives, an organization can expect to
see a return of $3 to $6 in reduced costs,
improved productivity, reduced absentee-
ism and better medical insurance rates.
encouraging health and tness can be
something as simple as providing healthi-
er choices in the employee cafeteria, host-
ing presentations by health professionals,
offering quick and easy blood pressure
checks or starting a walk-at-lunch club.
A great way to jumpstart a walking pro-
gram this year is to join companies across
the country that are participating in
National Walk@lunch Day on Wednes-
day, April 24. created by the Bluecross
BlueShield Association, Walk@lunch
Day is designed to get people moving
in a way that complements, but doesnt
compete with, todays busy lifestyles.
Frequent, brisk walks during the work
week can help decrease the risk of a
heart attack and type-2 diabetes, control
weight, improve muscle tone and reduce
stress.
To participate, simply set aside time for
your employees to walk at least 20 min-
utes during the day on Wednesday, April
24. Then, encourage them to keep walk-
ing during lunch in the coming weeks.
At Blue Cross of Northeastern pennsyl-
vania (BCNEpA), nearly 100 employees
participated in National Walk@lunch
Day last year.
Now, more than 150 employees
participate in our Walking Wednesday
program by walking together at lunch-
time every week.
Because we understand the value of
employee health and tness, many insur-
ers offer support for workplace wellness
activities for their clients.
At BCNEpA, our Blue Health Solutions
program is available to all covered em-
ployers to help their employees manage
chronic conditions, improve tness or
simply start down the path of a healthier
lifestyle.
This spring, we encourage all local
employers to make a commitment to
their employees health -- and to their
companys health -- by implementing
workplace health and wellness programs
that can make a difference.

COMMENTARY

We should all wonder
how to make U.S. better
R
ecently i received a platform survey
which asked if i would support another
round of federal stimulus spending by
Democrats that devalues the dollar and
provides billions of dollars for special
interest groups?
in response, i asked myself: Dont the
republicans get to vote on this matter?
Dont they have a majority in Congress?
Another survey question asked whether
or not i would support a phased-in
increase in retirement/eligibility age for
social security benets that would not
affect anyone older than the age of 50?
Again, i wondered if any of our con-
gressmen and senators has ever worked
at a job lifting 25 pounds or more, mul-
tiple times during an eight-hour work day
at 65 years of age.
in fact, i wondered how many con-
gressmen and senators are millionaires
after 10 years in ofce. Then, i thought
whether these politicians would ever pay
back social security the money they took
from it over the years or vote to turn so-
cial security into 401K plans like some-
one wanted to do right before Americas
nancial crisis. i wondered why it takes
a billion dollars of backing to become
president of the United states.
reviewing the survey i came upon a
question that asked me if a particular
party should make a specic effort to
reach out, encourage and recruit support-
ers and candidates from the black, his-
panic, Asian and minority communities.
i thought why an effort was made prior
to 2013. All men are created equal, of the
people, by the people, and for the people
and maybe its time people realized this.
i continued wondering as i went from
question to question, should it be this, or
should it be that? Finally, my wondering
came to the thought of how the media
and the government inform me of what
they are doing for the people to make
America greater than it currently is. my
thinking made me question: how does
the news media and the government pro-
vide information about a particular leg-
islative subject when one political party
says this and another says that. When one
television/radio station supports this and
the other supports that.
how many owners of newspapers and
television, radio stations are millionaires
and how does this affect what they allow
to be printed on a particular political
topic?
i only wish that more people will won-
der and that the wondering will prompt
action that makes American greater than
it is today.

Editorial Board
PRASHANT SHITUT
President and CEO
JOSEPH BUTKIEWICZ
Vice President / Executive Editor
starting in October. By 2016,
the decit is seen as dropping
below 3 percent of the size of
the economy, a level that many
economists say is manageable.
Obama cast his budget as a
compromise offer that would
bridge differences between Re-
publicans and their desire for
reducing government spending
and Democrats who want more
revenue from taxpayers. But its
difcult to overstate the gulf
between Obama and the con-
servatives who are in the GOP
drivers seat in Congress.
While the budget proposal
will not prompt any immedi-
ate congressional action, it will
probably surface this summer
when Republicans are expected
to demand additional reduc-
tions in the decit in exchange
for increasing the nations bor-
rowing authority.
Obama claims $1.8 trillion in
decit savings over the coming
decade, but the budget tables
show the savings are actually
$1.4 trillion. And $1.2 trillion
of that is devoted to reversing
automatic, across-the-board
spending cuts required because
of Washingtons inability to fol-
low up a 2011 budget pact with
further decit action.
This is worse than a status
quo budget, said House Bud-
get Committee Chairman Paul
Ryan, R-Wis. He said it has about
$1 trillion in new taxes, $1 tril-
lion in new spending with de-
cit reduction of only $119 billion
over 10 years under GOP math
that sorts through questionable
interpretations employed by the
White House.
For instance, Obama claims
$167 billion in lower war costs
money the administration
never intended to spend and
uses that savings for road proj-
ects and other undertakings it
bills as jobs initiatives.
The real cuts include $400 bil-
lion scrubbed from health care
programs like Medicare over the
coming decade, including cuts
in payments to drug companies
and higher Medicare premiums
for people who are better off.
The administration would
modestly cut the annual oper-
ating budgets for both the Pen-
tagon and domestic agencies
while reprising ideas like higher
Transportation Security Admin-
istration fees on airline tickets,
the end of Saturday mail deliv-
ery and higher pension contribu-
tions for federal workers.
He does deserve some credit
for some incremental entitle-
ment reforms, said Boehner,
R-Ohio. But I would hope that
he would not hold hostage these
modest reforms for his demand
for bigger tax hikes. Listen, why
dont we do what we can agree
to do?
Thats not the way it works,
countered Gene Sperling, the di-
rector of Obamas National Eco-
nomic Council. The offer that
is there for Speaker Boehner is
not an a la carte menu.
And Rep. Chris Van Hollen,
D-Md., said he had reservations
about the White House making
concessions without getting
anything in return. He said,
The president will have to re-
main rm in his insistence that
this is a package deal.
The White House budget
claims $580 billion in tax in-
creases on the wealthy over 10
years, including a 28 percent cap
on itemized deductions thats
never gotten anywhere on Capi-
tol Hill.
The total climbs closer to $1
trillion in tax increases after
adding in ideas like a 94 cents-
per-pack increase in taxes on
cigarettes, changes for corpo-
rate foreign earnings, slower
ination adjustments to income
tax brackets, elimination of oil
and gas production subsidies, an
increase in the estate tax, a new
nancial crisis responsibility
fee on banks and new taxes on
trading of exotic nancial instru-
ments known as derivatives.
Republicans predictably
slammed Obamas plan for its
tax increases, while his Demo-
cratic allies generally held their
tongues over cuts to Social Se-
curity benets.
Wasik told the ofcer he
would not give up any infor-
mation about the bomb or its
location until he spoke with the
president.
Authorities at 4:48 a.m. lo-
cated a semi-cab tractor at
the corner of Vermont and H
Streets, N.W., about one-block
away fromthe White House and
parked in front of the Veterans
Affairs Building.
A Secret Service ofcer re-
layed that he found keys in the
ignition. Upon hearing the ra-
dio broadcast, Wasik allegedly
said, Dont touch the keys in
the ignition or else something
bad will happen. I dont care if
children or veterans are harmed
by the bomb. I only care about
speaking to the president, ac-
cording to the complaint.
A Military Explosive Ord-
nance Disposal Team and the
Washington, D.C., Fire Depart-
ment searched the truck and
declared at 6:25 a.m. that no
explosives were found.
The Associated Press report-
ed surrounding streets and the
McPherson Square Metro rail
station were shut down, and
the Veterans Affairs Building
was evacuated.
This shut down signicantly
affected interstate commerce
during the time it was in place,
the complaint says.
PFA petition
Teresa Wasik said she spoke
with her husband on Tuesday
and he seemed ne. He said he
was going to Virginia for work.
That evening, she was unable to
get in touch with him. Wednes-
day morning, the Secret Service
called Teresa Wasik and noti-
ed her of the incident at the
White House.
Teresa Wasik previously led
a PFA against her husband. In
her court petition, she said she
was working at the Walmart in
Pittston Township on Monday
evening when she was told she
had a visitor.
It was my husband waiting
for me. He said that he has our
daughter in his truck and she
was sick and needed to see me
immediately, she wrote in the
petition. When she got to the
truck, their daughter wasnt
there. Thats when, she said,
her husband grabbed her and
tried to push her into the truck,
according to the petition.
I wrestled to break free of
his grasp, she wrote.
Teresa Wasik said she asked
her husband what he was do-
ing, and he replied that he
wanted to take her away for a
few days to show her we can
live without food.
I need to mention at this
point that he was going through
mental problems (for) some
time he is not taking his medi-
cations. He refuses to do so,
she wrote.
She then described calling
the police and she was advised
to change the locks of their
home and le for a PFA. The
PFA states Wasik drives a 2010
Dodge Caravan and had moved
out of the couples home and
was living out of the vehicle.
A hearing has been sched-
uled for April 18 at the Luzerne
County Courthouse for a judge
to consider the PFA. A tempo-
rary PFA has been put in place.
Hes a great guy, a sobbing
Teresa Wasik told a reporter
earlier Wednesday from inside
the couples home on Goshen
Avenue. He just needs help.
He is very well-liked by
everybody. He just has issues
when he stops taking his medi-
cation, she said. He is into the
Bible and God. Hes a good citi-
zen.
Teresa Wasik said her hus-
band has no anti-government
tendencies and did not know
why he was in Washington,
D.C., which is about a four-hour
drive from their home. She said
they separated about two weeks
ago but had stayed in touch.
Neighbors shocked
The Wasiks live in a quiet,
Chapel Hill neighborhood in
Hazle Township. Spacious
homes are separated by large
yards and patches of woods.
Many of the homes, including
the Wasiks, are equipped with
burglar alarms as evident by
home security signs in ower
beds.
A few Chapel Hill home-
owners expressed shock when
they were told about the al-
leged bomb threat at the White
House by their neighbor whom
they call Kristopher.
He threatened to blow up
what? said one female neigh-
bor across from the Wasik
home. This is a quiet, resi-
dential neighborhood. Nothing
happens up here.
Another female neighbor said
the Wasiks kept to themselves.
Nothing surprises me in the
city but up here, Im shocked,
she said.
Leona Seginak who lives in
Chapel Hill said she has a spe-
cial bond with the Wasiks by
speaking the same Polish lan-
guage.
My only thought is he did
not take his medication, Segi-
nak said. I have nothing but
good to say about their family.
They have a wonderful family.
Teresa Wasik said her home
was not searched by authori-
ties.
A check for court records
only returned a trafc cita-
tion led against Wasik by the
Frackville Police Department
in November 2011. He pleaded
guilty to the citation and paid a
$110 ne.
Wasik was charged with
threatening and conveying false
information concerning use of
an explosive.
He remains in federal cus-
tody.

Krzysztof Wasiks home in Hazle Township on Wednesday.
a decade ago in an attempt to
shield the university from bad
publicity. Joe Paterno was red
by the university trustees days
after Sandusky was charged.
The Paterno family has vehe-
mently denied that Joe Paterno
had any knowledge about San-
duskys crimes against chil-
dren.
Sandusky, 69, is serving a 30-
to 60-year prison sentence after
being convicted last year of 45
counts of child sexual abuse in-
volving 10 boys over a period
of years. He maintains his inno-
cence and is pursuing appeals.
The Second Mile, the char-
ity through which prosecutors
say Sandusky met most if not
all of his victims, is still func-
tioning but received a judges
permission in March to sell its
State College headquarters for
$650,000.
A February report commis-
sioned by the family portrayed
Joe Paterno as the victim of a
rush to injustice spawned by
the university-nanced internal
probe. Dick Thornburgh, the
former U.S. attorney general
and former Pennsylvania gov-
ernor, was among the people
assembled to review Freehs
ndings.
Freeh has said he stands by
his report. It concluded that Pa-
terno and the universitys for-
mer president Graham Spanier,
former athletic director Tim
Curley and retired vice presi-
dent for business and nance
Gary Schultz concealed criti-
cal information and failed to
protect against a sexual preda-
tor harming children for over a
decade.
On Tuesday, the supervising
judge of the grand jury whose
ndings resulted in charges
against Spanier, Curley and
Schultz rejected their pre-trial
motions, allowing their crimi-
nal cases to move forward.

PATERNO
WASIK
The atrocity in Newtown
certainly gave momentum that
something needs to get done,
he said.
If a father wants to give a gun
to his son, Toomey said, a back-
ground check isnt necessary.
He expects a wide range of
opinions on the issue. I dont
think trying to keep guns out
of the hands of criminals is gun
control, Toomey said. I dont
expect everyone to agree with
me, but I dont consider this giv-
ing anything up.
He opposes limits on assault
weapons and high-capacity
clips. Those would be infringe-
ments on Second Amendment
rights, he said.
Immediately after learning of
the Toomey-Manchin proposal,
the NRA released a statement.
Expanding background
checks at gun shows will not
prevent the next shooting, will
not solve violent crime and
will not keep our kids safe in
schools, the statement said.
We have a broken mental
health system that is not go-
ing to be xed with more back-
ground checks at gun shows.
The sad truth is that no back-
ground check would have pre-
vented the tragedies in New-
town, Aurora or Tucson, the
NRA said.
The NRA said it would like to
see a serious and meaningful
solution that addresses crime
in cities such as Chicago, ad-
dresses mental health decien-
cies, while at the same time pro-
tecting the rights of those who
are not a danger to anyone.
Pennsylvanias other U.S.
senator Sen. Bob Casey, D-
Scranton, a pro-gun Democrat
previously said he would sup-
port bans on assault weapons
and high-capacity magazines,
and would vote for expanded

I was grateful Republicans
and Democrats came together
to reach a bipartisan compro-
mise on background checks,
Casey said. I am a strong sup-
porter of the Second Amend-
ment, but I also believe we have
an obligation to take common-
sense steps to reduce gun vio-
lence.
ter it could not obtain the title.
Administrative Coordinator
Drew McLaughlin said the city
also determined the van, which
was to be used by the health
department and animal control,
did not meet specications.
The entire purchase price of the
van was refunded by Glodzik.
But the city never attempted
to get its money back for the
bus, which was purchased in
June 2006, as it believed it
could some day obtain the title,
McLaughlin said.
He couldnt explain why,
nearly seven years later, that
has not happened.
Frank Sorick, president of
the Wilkes-Barre Taxpayers As-
sociation and frequent critic of
city spending, said the situation
exemplies the citys penchant
for wasting taxpayers money.
It never ceases to amaze
me, said Sorick. We spend
money on something. We nd
out its not of use. We toss it in
storage and hang on to it until
God knows when. If you or I
bought something that was not
of value, we would immediately
ask for our money back. In the
case of city government they
just park it and say it is what it
is.
McLaughlin could not pro-
vide specic details regarding
the problem with transferring
the title of the bus. He said he
was unable to obtain that infor-
mation, noting several city em-
ployees who might have been
involved with the transaction,
including John Koval, nance
director, and Ron Trimble,
purchasing director, no longer
work for the city.
I know there were attempts
to resolve this in the past. Most
recently last year, prior to the
surplus equipment auction,
McLaughlin said in an email. I
could not speak to how many
times there were attempts to
resolve it. Given the passage of
time and employee departures
who had more direct roles in
this, I would not be able to give
details on that.
In an interview last week,
Trimble, who recently retired,
said the bus purchase was
among eight or 10 vehicles that
were purchased in 2006. The
idea behind acquiring the bus
was a good thing in principle,
he said, but the city could never
get it registered due to the title
problems.
We have problems with the
high-rises, said Trimble. If we
need to evacuate, this was an
easy way to transport people as
well as our own men who we
could take to job sites and drop
them off. The bus didnt work
for us because there is no title
for it.
The city has tried to sell the
vehicle at auction, but was un-
able to do so because of the title
issues, he said.
The bus is registered to Pace
Construction Inc. in Pittston,
McLaughlin said. The city pre-
viously has spoken with of-
cials from Pace, who said they
could not locate paperwork re-
lating to the bus, he said.
Ofcials recently contacted
Pace again in hopes of resolv-
ing the matter, he said. They
told us they are searching their
records for any titles or paper-
work, McLaughlin said. If
nothing is found, the purchas-
ing director told me that a
title could be reissued in Paces
name and then signed over to
DeNaples Auto Parts and then
transferred to the city, which
would give us proper title.

WBS lands Derek Nesbitt
from Rivermen in exhange for
future considerations.
By TOMVENESKY
tvenesky@timesleader.com
The Wilkes-Barre/Scranton
Penguins offense received a
significant boost hours before
Wednesdays AHL trade dead-
line expired at 3 p.m.
The Pen-
guins obtained
Derek Nesbitt
from the Peo-
ria Rivermen
in exhange for
future consid-
erations.
N e s b i t t ,
30, led the Rivermen this sea-
son with 26 goals, eight power
play tallies and was second in
points with 47 in 66 games. He
has scored more than 20 goals
in each of the last two seasons
and provides the Penguins with
another shooter to go along with
the likes of Chad Kolarik and
Trevor Smith.
Head coach John Hynes said
the trade wasnt made to fill a
need on the team.
When you have the chance to
get a player of this caliber, you
do it, Hynes said. Were adding
a very high-character guy who
can skate and has had very good
production at the AHL level.
In seven pro seasons, Nesbitt
has appeared in 253 AHL games
with Rockford, Manitoba, San
Antonio and Peoria. For his ca-
reer he has 66 goals, 156 points
and 44 penalty minutes.
The Penguins appear to be
getting Nesbitt at the perfect
time. He is coming off his hottest
month of the season in March
with seven goals and 12 points
in 15 games.
Nesbitt, who wasnt drafted,
began his AHL career on a one
year contract with Rockford
after working his way up from
the ECHL. He was signed to a
professional tryout agreement
by Peoria on Nov. 11, 2010 and
was signed to an AHL contract a
month later.
The fact that Nesbitt had to
earn his way to the AHL ap-
pealed to Hynes.
Hes worked for everything
hes gotten and it tells you a lot
about whats inside a person and
a player when nothings handed
to them, Hynes said. His track
record speaks volumes about his
ability, drive and heart.
Nesbitt ranks tenth in the

track.

hit speeds of 215 mph in open

now known for hosting two
Sprint Cup races each season
since the race won by Danny Sul-
livan on Aug. 20, 1989.
A lot of things have changed,
Mears said. But a lot of things
havent. I think a good line then
is a good line today.
The return to Pocono is being
celebrated as a nod to IndyCars

Tiger Woods, left, with 14 major titles is 4 behind Jack Nicklaus, right, who has the record at 18. Woods will tee off in pursuit of
No. 15 today at The Masters in Augusta, Ga.
On top again, Tiger resumes chase of Nicklaus
AUGUSTA, Ga. Jack Nick-
laus was trying to remember
the last time Tiger Woods won
a major title.
Three and a half years ago?
Nope, longer than that.
Really? Nicklaus shot
back incredulously, when told
Woods last major victory was
the 2008 U.S. Open. I mean,
its been a while. Hes going to
have to figure it out.
Woods comes into the Mas-
ters as the undisputed favorite.
Hes back on top of the world
rankings. Hes already won
three times this year on the
PGA Tour.
Hes playing the best, de-
fending Masters champion
Bubba Watson said. Hes No. 1
in the world. Thats all you need
to look at.
Of course, everyone keeps
looking at Woods more recent
record in the events that really
matter.
Since turning pro, hes never
gone this long without winning
a major. His drought at Augusta
a tournament hes won four
times stretches back to 2005,
his longest winless stretch in
any of the four biggest champi-
onships.
Which brings us back to Nick-
laus, whose 18 major titles are
more than any other golfer, who
set the standard that Woods has
been chasing most of his life.
When Woods hobbled to his
14th major title back in 08, es-
sentially winning on one good
leg, it seemed certain he would
take down Nicklaus mark.
Nothing could stop him.

Star wide receiver shining in

STATE COLLEGE This
was one answer that was unani-
mous. Asked to name the most
impressive performers through
the first two weeks of spring
practice, a group of Penn State
players speaking on Wednesday
all had Allen Robinson right at
the top of their lists.
The reign-
ing Big Ten
Wide Receiver
of the Year was
the main at-
traction in the
Nittany Lions
overhauled of-
fense in 2012.
Robinson com-
manded the most attention from
defenses in the fall and from re-
porters before Wednesdays prac-
tice at Holuba Hall.
And, at the start of the month,
from nervous fans who follow
him on Twitter.
Yeah, about that last one
Robinson and good buddy
Bill Belton put a brief scare into
some of their Penn State follow-
ers in the late hours of March
31. The pair with a little help
from roommates Adrian Amos
and Kyle Carter took to social
media to announce they would
be transferring to new schools.
And then midnight struck.
April Fools?
I guess it was funny to a few
of us, Robinson said. But it
wasnt that funny.
Now imagine explaining it to
Bill OBrien.
Well, Robinson said with the
slightest of smiles, recalling the
little discussion he had with his
head coach. He didnt take it as
bad as I thought he would.
Uh huh.
Fortunately for Robinson, he
said there was no punishment
in the form of running or extra
work in the weight room. Its
been back to business, includ-
ing catching a touchdown from
Steven Bench despite tight cov-
erage during a hurry-up drill at
Wednesdays practice.

MOOSIC - One season-opening
homestand wasnt enough time to

the RailRiders have struggled to score

The Associated Press
PHILADELPHIA Do-
monic Brown and Chase Utley
homered in a five-run first,
Kyle Kendrick threw six effec-
tive innings and the Philadel-
phia Phillies beat the New York
Mets 7-3 Wednesday night.
Pinch-hitter Laynce Nix also
went deep for the Phillies, who
took two straight from the
Mets to earn their first series
win of the year.
John Buck homered for the
third straight game and Lucas
Duda had two solo shots for
New York. The Mets set a
club record by hitting at least
one homer in their first nine
games.
Kendrick (1-1) allowed two
runs and eight hits to become
the first Philadelphia starter
other than Cliff Lee to get a
win.
Dbacks 10, Pirates 2
PHOENIX A.J. Pollock
homered twice, doubled and
drove in four runs as the Ari-
zona Diamondbacks salvaged
the final game of their series
against Pittsburgh, routing the
Pirates 10-2 on Wednesday.
Pollock began the day in an
0-for-14 rut. He also made a
diving catch in center field to
rob Andrew McCutchen in the
first inning.
Cardinals 10, Reds 0
ST. LOUIS Jake West-
brook pitched a five-hit shutout
and the St. Louis Cardinals
backed him with four home
runs in routing the Cincinnati
Reds.
Jon Jay, Carlos Beltran and
Matt Adams homered in a span
of seven at-bats off Homer Bai-
ley as the Cardinals took two
of three from the NL Central
champions.
Matt Carpenter added a two-
run homer on a four-hit day.
Adams homered for the second
straight game and added an
RBI double and walk.
Giants 10, Rockies 0
SAN FRANCISCO Buster
Posey drove in three runs with
NBA star Kevin Durant cheer-
ing him from the stands, Barry
Zito pitched another gem and
the San Francisco Giants com-
pleted a sweep of the Colorado
Rockies with a win.
Nationals 5, White Sox 2
WASHINGTON Bryce
Harper homered, Ian Desmond
had three extra-base hits,
Danny Espinosa provided his
first two RBIs of the season,
and the Washington Nationals
beat the Chicago White Sox to
stay unbeaten at home.
In a game that began 16
minutes late because, the Na-
tionals explained, the umpires
got stuck in traffic, Washington
starter Jordan Zimmermann
(2-0) limited Chicago to two
runs and seven hits in seven
innings. Both runs scored on
groundouts.
Braves 8, Marlins 0
MIAMI Evan Gattis hit
a three-run homer and the
Atlanta Braves completed their
second consecutive three-game
sweep when they beat the reel-
ing Miami Marlins.
Mike Minor pitched 5 2-3

8-1 record leads the majors.
Theyre off to their best start
since 1994, when they began

Machados 3-run HR
lifts Os over Red Sox
BOSTON Manny Macha-
dos three-run homer capped a
five-run ninth inning and gave
the Baltimore Orioles an 8-5
win over the Boston Red Sox
on Wednesday night.
The Red Sox had gone ahead
5-3 in the sixth on consecutive
homers by Daniel Nava and
Jarrod Saltalamacchia. But
closer Joel Hanrahan couldnt
hold the lead on a night when
their nearly 10-year home
sellout streak ended.
Chris Davis led off the ninth
with his fifth homer. Hanra-
han (0-1) retired the next two
batters, then allowed a single
by Ryan Flaherty. Then he
struggled with his control,
walking Nolan Reimold and
Nate McLouth to load the
bases and throwing a wild
pitch that brought pinch run-
ner Alexi Casilla home with
the tying run.
Jays 8, Tigers 6
DETROIT J.P. Arenci-
bia hit a three-run double in
the seventh inning, and the
Toronto Blue Jays rallied from
a five-run deficit to beat the
Detroit Tigers.
Detroit led 6-1 in the sixth,
but starter Rick Porcello al-
lowed hits to the first three
batters that inning. They all
eventually scored, and Toronto
added four more runs the fol-
lowing inning.
Rays 2, Rangers 0
ARLINGTON, Texas Matt
Moore and four Rays relievers
combined on a five-hitter and
Tampa Bay beat Texas in the
coldest day game ever at Rang-
ers Ballpark.
It was only 39 degrees when
the game started after a rain
delay of 1 hour, 29 minutes.
That was 40 degrees colder
than Tuesday night.

KANSAS CITY, Mo.
Wade Davis pitched out of

straight and six of seven to

Baseball forms
diversity committee
NEW YORK Major League
Baseball has created a task force
that will study how to increase
diversity in the game, especially
among black players.
Commissioner Bud Selig an-
nounced the committee Wednes-
day. In less than a week, baseball
will celebrate the 66th anniver-
sary of Jackie Robinson breaking
the color barrier. A new movie
titled 42 focuses on the Hall of
Famer.
The 18-member committee in-
cludes representatives from club
ownership, the players union,
minor league and college base-
ball, the MLB scouting bureau
and other areas. Hall of Famer
Frank Robinson and former ma-
jor league manager Jerry Manuel
are among the members.
MLB says about 8.5 percent
of players on this years opening
day rosters identified themselves
as African-American or black.

the starting job for the fall.
Really well, OBrien said.
Allen has made a lot of plays
out here, and hes made plays
in the passing game from both
quarterbacks. Youd have to say
theyve connected pretty well
this spring.
Thats a start if Robinson
wants to improve on his Big
Ten-leading marks in receptions
(77), receiving yards (1,018) and
touchdown catches (11) from
his sophomore campaign.
To get going down that path,
Robinson has spent some extra
time watching film and working
on the technical aspects of his
game. He has the benefit of a
head coach and a position coach
who have worked with receivers
in the NFL.
OBrien, of course, ran the
New England Patriots offense.
Receivers coach Stan Hixon held
the same position with the Buf-
falo Bills and Robinson said he
has watched plenty of film from
both teams. In particular, he has
been studying Bills top receiver
Stevie Johnson.
It helps fine-tune route-run-
ning and you learn to do differ-
ent things that make corner-
backs uncomfortable, Robinson
said. I try do that all the time
and stay in the film room.
Robinson also did plenty of
work with Amos over the win-
ter, as the two have continued a
friendly competition that follows
them from the practice field to
the weight room to video games.
We go at it a lot, Robinson
said. Were definitely good
friends, but when we get out
here and compete, we try to
make each other better. Its good
for us and good for the team.
Amos, the Lions top defen-
sive back, agreed.
It makes us hold each other
to a high standard, Amos said.
So when were out there com-
peting, we know that if we con-
sider ourselves two of the better
players, we have to perform at a
high level.
During recent practices, the
two friends havent gone one-on-
one as much as they did in the
winter because Amos has spent
most of his spring at safety in-
stead of corner. But the two still
manage to keep a running score
in their heads.
So who comes out on top?
Of course Im going to say
me, Amos grinned.
Nah, Robinson said. I do.
(Its about) 70-30.
No foolin.

ton/Wilkes-Barre played the ma-
jority of its home games while
PNC Field was being rebuilt last
season.
Opportunities have been
there, Miley continued, not
from hits, from walks. Were
4-for-21 with a man on third base
and less than two outs.
Weve got to have someone to
knock them in.
Thats not necessarily a sign
the team will struggle. It got
off to a 2-5 start playing as the
Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Yan-
kees last season, and Miley still
guided the club to 84 victories
and the International League
North Division title. But at this
point, the manager cares more
about performance than the fi-
nal score.
Weve been close in games,
said Miley, now in his seventh
season managing Scranton/
Wilkes-Barres Triple-A baseball
team. Weve got some guys who
have gotten off to slow starts
(hitting) in quite a few games.
Weve given up some runs late.
The bright spot so far has
been Scranton/Wilkes-Barres
starting pitching.
Lefthander Vidal Nuno held
Rochester to one run and struck
out six without no walks over
seven strong innings, but left
with a no-decision before the
bullpen was tagged with a 2-1
loss. That was right after right-
hander Chris Bootcheck pitched
five shutout innings with four
strikeouts against Rochester
while setting up the RailRiders
for their only win. And tonights
starter, Dellin Betances, worked
three promising innings before
faltering in the fourth against
Pawtucket.
Starters have been good, Mi-
ley said. Theyre finally getting
stretched out just now. Nuno
was outstanding, Bootcheck
threw well, Dellin pitched well
until he lost it a little after a few
innings.
But the offensive struggles
arent lost on the RailRiders.
Although theyve drawn an
International League-leading 37
walks, theyre hitting just .209
as a team. Their only home run
of the season came off the bat
of leadoff hitter Melky Mesa,
who has struck out 13 times.
Cody Johnson, who hit cleanup
Tuesday, has nine strikeouts on
a team that carries the second-
highest strikeout total in the
league.
A lot of strikeouts, Miley
said.
Scranton/Wilkes-Barres 17
runs scored through six games
is last in the league. But thats
not surprising, considering the
RailRiders have just two play-
ers hitting above .250 - infielder
Addison Maruszak at .364 and
catcher Austin Romine, who
leads the club with a .389 bat-
ting average.
Maruszaks swung the bat
pretty well, Romine has swung
it well over the last few games,
Miley said.
The rest, he hopes, will come
around.
Its too early (to tell), Mi-
ley said. Weve got to get our
bats going. (But) its six games.
Weve got 138 to play.

P E N N S TAT E F O O T B A L L
OBrien: Still no separation at quarterback
By DEREK LEVARSE
dlevarse@timesleader.com
STATE COLLEGE Bill
OBrien rattled off the number
without having to think about it.
A main focus for the Penn
State coach this spring is to
develop a starting quarterback,
and he has been certain to make
it a fair fight between sopho-
mores Steven Bench and Tyler
Ferguson.
Both guys have exactly 168
reps in 7-on-7 and 11-on-11
(drills), OBrien said Wednes-
day before the Nittany Lions
practiced at Holuba Hall.
And no, he didnt tip his hand
as to which 168 have been bet-
ter.
I cant say that one guy has
really stood out above the other
guy, OBrien said. Theyve
both had their moments. Ive
been very impressed with how
hard each guy has worked. You
think about it, theyre both
young 18-19 years old
many of the guys theyre playing
with have been in the system
longer than them. So its a little
bit different than last year,
where everybody was new.
So these guys have had to
catch up to the veteran guys,
and I think theyve done a good
job. Both guys have had some
tough moments, both guys have
had some good moments, and
were just looking to be more
consistent over the next five or
six practices.
Both wont be out in front of
the public until the Blue-White
Game on April 20. In a brief
portion of Wednesdays practice
open to reporters, Bench had
a slight edge while running
OBriens hurry-up NASCAR
package in situational drills,
simulating end-of-game sce-
narios from different points on
the field.
Bench threw the lone touch-
down during the drill, finding
Allen Robinson in between
defenders in the middle of the
end zone.
But he also nearly ended the
drive just before that. Another
ball intended for Robinson
should have been intercepted
by safety Ryan Keiser, who got
both hands on the pass but
couldnt hold on.
Fergusons best throw was to
former WVC standout Eugene
Lewis, who came open on the
right sideline and made the
grab for a big gain to move the
offense across midfield.
OBrien has been careful not
to single out one quarterback
over the other during inter-
views. An answer to a question
about Fergusons comfort level
after moving from California to
Centre County in the middle
of the winter included Bench,
who came to Penn State from
Georgia last summer.
You have to give Tyler a
lot of credit, just like you have
to give Steven Bench a lot of
credit, OBrien said. Tylers
3,000 miles away, Bench is
1,000 miles away. Theyre a long
way from home, and not many
guys would do that.
So you have to give them
both credit for doing that, for
making the choice to come to
Penn State and trying to be the
quarterback. I have respect for
both of these kids.
A big opportunity
As for Lewis, he has im-
pressed teammates with his
work this spring after redshirt-
ing in 2012.
This fall, there will be a
chance for a wideout or two
to step up behind starters
Robinson and Brandon Moseby-
Felder. Earlier this spring, the
coaching staff moved two receiv-
ers who arrived at Penn State
with Lewis last June Trevor
Williams and Malik Golden
to the secondary.
Lewis happens to have a
strong advocate in Robinson,
who said the former Wyoming
Valley West quarterback and re-
ceiver has made great progress
in his nine months on campus.
Hes come a long way,
Robinson said. Hes definitely
become a better route-runner.
Great hands, great jumping
ability. So he can definitely
help us downfield as far as deep
balls and stuff. And in the short
game, hes a good runner with
the ball. I think hell help us out
a lot.
A familiar face
On top of it all, Lewis also
had an old coach in attendance
on Wednesday.
Current Berwick boss and for-
mer Valley West coach George
Curry was on the sidelines
inside Holuba Hall as the Lions
were pushed indoors because of
thunderstorms. Currys last year
with the Spartans was Lewis
freshman season in 2008.
Curry brought up a group of
his players including grand-
son C.J., the Bulldogs starting
quarterback to watch the
practice.
The states all-time win-
ningest high school football
coach has had a long relation-
ship with Penn State, often hav-
ing Lions signal-callers appear
at his annual quarterbacks camp
in the summer.
Opportunities have
been there not from hits,
from walks. Were 4-for-
21 with a man on third
base and less than two
outs. Weve got to have
someone to knock them
in.

Louisvilles Peyton Siva waves to the crowd at a welcome home celebration for their run in the
NCAA basketball tournament championship on Wednesday in Louisville, Ky.
Cardinals fans celebrate
both programs success
By GARY GRAVES
AP Sports Writer
LOUISVILLE, Ky. They
havent stopped partying in
Louisville.
The latest celebration
Wednesday was a bit more
structured as the NCAA cham-
pion Cardinals mens team
and runner-up womens squad
received heroes welcomes at
the KFC Yum! Center. A near-
capacity crowd awash in red
thanked players and coaches
for providing one of the most
satisfying weeks ever with
both playing for titles and the
men delivering Louisvilles first
championship in 27 years.
Both Cardinals programs
responded with short expres-
sions of gratitude, allowing
mens coach Rick Pitino to have
the final word.
Hoarse from a whirlwind Fi-
nal Four including his election
to the Hall of Fame followed
by his second title, Pitino
drew a huge cheer by asking,
Wouldnt it be great if we
somehow got back to Dallas?
for next years championship.
That remains to be seen for
Louisvilles men, who were
still digesting Monday nights
82-76 victory over Michigan in
Atlanta.
In case they werent sure of
what they achieved, the stage
featured tangible reminders.
The NABC crystal ball trophy
centered a display that included
both of Big East championship
trophies along with this years
hardware for winning it all.
The womens runner-up tro-
phy was also displayed, sym-
bols that elicited pride from
University President James
Ramsey.
Ive got a question to ask
you: is this a pretty good time
to be a Louisville Cardinal?
Ramsey said to the first of
many large cheers inside the
arena that included a packed
plaza of fans.
Athletic director Tom Jurich
echoed that sentiment before
yielding to players and coaches
from both programs, who re-
ceived rock-star introductions
and several ovations.
One of the biggest was for
Cardinals guard Kevin Ware,
whose horrific right leg break
in the Midwest Region final
victory over Duke made him
an overnight sensation and the
sentimental hero of Louisvilles
title run. He ambled up on the
steps without crutches before
grabbing them to walk to his
chair, his words drowned out
by a crescendo of cheers.
Guards Peyton Siva and
Russ Smith drew their share of
screaming as well particu-
larly Smith, who wasnt sched-
uled to speak until fans began
chanting We want Russ!
After Louisvilles clinching
victory, Russ Smith Sr. said his
son plans to enter the NBAdraft.
The well-informed crowds mes-
sage was loud and clear as they
greeted the Cardinals leading
scorer with chants of One more
year! One more year!
Smith said nothing about his
plans but seemed to thank fans
for a body of work supporting
him during his career.
As far as myself, I just want
to say thank you, guys, for a tre-
mendous three years, Smith
said. Ill never forget this.
While many present were
there to celebrate the mens na-
tional championship, there was
plenty of love for the Cardinals
women.
Louisvilles surprising run
through the tournament posi-
tioned the Cardinals to win dual
before Connecticut squashed
that dream with a 93-60 rout
Tuesday night in New Orleans,
Fans didnt soon forget the fifth-
seeded Cardinals memorable
charge, highlighted by a monu-
mental 82-81 upset of defending
champion and top-seeded Bay-
lor in the regional semifinal.
Junior guard Shoni Schim-
mel led that run with shooting,
penetration and confidence,
all of which were shown on
the video screen. One of many
players wearing T-shirts saying
Party Crashers on the back in
reference to their unexpected
presence in the Final Four, she
hinted that a Final Four return
was possible.
Thank you for everything
and well be back next year,
dont worry, Schimmel said.
Pitino brought the official cel-
ebration to an emotional close
by expressing his gratitude for
the opportunity to work in a
program that allowed him to
achieve some personal mile-
stones. Besides the Hall of Fame
selection and becoming the first
coach to lead two schools to na-
tional titles, last week saw his
son, Richard, hired as Minne-
sotas coach and a thoroughbred
he co-owns qualified for the
Kentucky Derby.
None of that compared to
what he felt upon watching a
replay of Louisvilles victory
in New Orleans while attend-
ing the womens final. Seeing
Chane Behanans rebounding
performance in the mens final
made the 60-year-old cry in a
Bourbon Street bar, but he was
all smiles in the arena that has
fueled his success.
NAS C AR HAL L OF FAME
Jarrett tops
list of new
nominees
CHARLOTTE, N.C. NAS-
CAR champion Dale Jarrett
headlined the 25 nominees an-
nounced Wednesday for next
years Hall of Fame class a list
that finally includes track mag-
nate Bruton Smith.
Only five nominees are new to
the list, with the other 20 carry-
ing over from last year. Joining
Jarrett and Smith as new nomi-
nees were engine builder Mau-
rice Petty, five-time NASCAR
weekly series national cham-
pion Larry Phillips and 1960
NASCAR champion Rex White.
Five people will be selected for
induction into the fifth Hall of
Fame class in May 22 voting by
a 54-member panel.
The panel will finally get to
consider Smith, who many be-
lieved had been snubbed by not
being among the nominees the
last four years. He said Wednes-
day night from Texas Motor
Speedway he never felt snubbed
by not being a nominee.
It did not bother me, but I got
it from all kinds of people con-
stantly, but I can honestly say it
didnt bother me, Smith said in a
telephone interview with The As-
sociated Press. Naturally, I am
honored that all of a sudden Ive
been nominated and I am a can-
didate, and all the people around
me are telling me how wonderful
it is, so its wonderful.
Smith promoted his first race
at 18 years old, and later ran the
National Stock Car Racing As-
sociation.
He built Charlotte Motor
Speedway, the anchor property
in a portfolio that now includes
eight tracks hosting 12 Sprint
Cup races, the All-Star race and
several high-profile motorsports
activities. Speedway Motors-
ports Inc. went public in 1995
and became the first motors-
ports company to be traded at
the New York Stock Exchange.
We have a huge investment in
NASCAR, in all of motorsports,
its approaching $4 billion at
least, Smith said. But Im proud
of what weve been able to do,
weve spent a lot of money build-
ing this monster called SMI. And
the one thing we talk about, the
group of about six to 10 whenev-
er we are about to do something
large, Is it good for the sport?
If we find out from some of
our people thats its not good for
the sport, we dont do it.
Jarrett was NASCARs 1999
champion and is 21st on the vic-
tory list with 32. Among those
victories include three Daytona
500s, two Brickyard 400s and
the Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte.
Jarrett also won at least one race
a year in 11 consecutive seasons
from 1993 through 2003, and
followed his father, Ned, into
broadcasting after his 2008 re-
tirement.

Torre says baseball belongs back in Games
By ERIC OLSON
AP Sports Writer
LAVISTA, Neb. Joe Torres
first experience in international
baseball convinced him that
the sport should be back in the
Olympics.
Torre managed Team USA
in the World Baseball Classic
last month and said he was im-
pressed with how invested the
players were in the games even
though they had to leave spring
training to participate.
The Americans lost in the
semifinals of the 16-nation tour-
nament. The Dominican Repub-
lic defeated Puerto Rico in the
championship game.
The World Baseball Classic
has showed you the three times
its been played that other coun-
tries have caught on and done a
pretty good job of playing base-
ball, Torre said.
Torre was in the Omaha sub-
urb of La Vista for a banquet
celebrating the unveiling of a
statue of his St. Louis Cardinals
teammate and Omaha native
Bob Gibson. Former Cardinals
Tim McCarver and Bill White
also were on hand.
The statue of the Hall of
Fame pitcher will stand at Wer-
ner Park, the home stadium of
the minor league Omaha Storm
Chasers.
Torre is a Major League Base-
ball executive vice president but
not directly involved in MLBs
efforts to return the sport to the
Olympics.
Baseball and softball have
been out of the Games since
2008 and have merged in a bid
to return in 2020. They are
competing against seven other
sports for a single spot on the
program.
The IOC board will meet next
month in St. Petersburg, Russia,
to select one or more sports to
submit for final consideration
to the IOC general assembly in
September.
Im a realist. Id like to be-
lieve it will happen, Torre said.
The reason I cant give you bet-
ter than that is because Id like
to be sitting across the table
and trying to make a case for it,
and Im sort of on the sidelines.
Thats not a criticism. Thats the
way were set up in MLB.
Torre said that while Japan,
Cuba and Taiwan along with the
United States, Puerto Rico and
the Dominican Republic are the
elite baseball-playing nations,
the Netherlands and Brazil are
among the nations improving
rapidly.
To me, its really disappoint-
ing if we dont get peoples at-
tention by whats been going
on in the world and how many
more countries are getting inter-
ested in promoting the game of
baseball, Torre said.
Though the WBC was over-
shadowed by spring training
and the NCAA basketball tour-
nament in the United States,
WBC organizers said the event
exceeded global broadcast and
ticket sales targets.
You look at how they filled
the ballparks in Puerto Rico and
Japan when they were playing
there, Torre said.
Torre said there probably isnt
a better time of year to play the
WBC, which will next be held in
2017.
He said it would be too much
to ask major leaguers to play the
WBC late in the year after many
of them had played 200 spring-
training and regular-season
games and playoffs.
Right now, unless somebody
says something to me that sort
of strikes a chord, were just go-
ing to have to keep doing this,
he said.
Torre said he would not be
in favor of eliminating the All-
Star Game and putting the ma-
jor league season on hiatus for
three weeks at midseason in
years when the WBC is played.
Ive heard rumblings of that,
he said.
You cant stop baseball for
three weeks. I know they do it
in hockey (in Olympic years),
but we really cant do it. Theres
a rhythm to our game.

Stadium
chief backs
pro sports
gear tax
By PATRICK CONDON
Associated Press
ST. PAUL, Minn. The
chairwoman of the state panel
overseeing Vikings stadium
construction said Wednesday
that she supports a sales tax on
professional sports merchandise
as a backup for the financially
struggling project.
Michele Kelm-Helgen was ap-
pointed last year by Gov. Mark
Dayton to lead the Minnesota
Sports Facilities Authority. She
testified at a hearing of the House
Taxes Committee on a bill that
would levy the sports memorabil-
ia tax and an accompanying luxu-
ry seat tax in response to lagging
tax revenue from electronic gam-
bling thats supposed to cover the
states share of the $975 million,
downtown Minneapolis stadium.
I think it makes a lot of
sense. It would provide a good
cushion, Kelm-Helgen said of
the sports memorabilia tax, a
proposed 10-percent sales tax
on clothes, sports cards, equip-
ment and other items that bear
a pro sports logo. It would ap-
ply not just to Vikings gear but
to the goods of all professional
teams, based in Minnesota or
elsewhere, and to purchases
made anywhere not just at
pro sports venues.
Kelm-Helgen discouraged the
luxury seat proposal, saying it
would infringe on a deal state
negotiators struck with the Vi-
kings last year that led to the sta-
dium bill the Legislature passed
in May. Vikings spokesman Les-
ter Bagley said the team is op-
posed to the entire proposal but
acknowledged that the sports
memorabilia tax would not vio-
late the letter of that deal since
those sales are not considered
stadium revenue in the same
way that luxury seats are.
Rep. Ann Lenczewski, the
Bloomington Democrat who
chairs the House Taxes Com-
mittee, introduced the new tax
proposals earlier this week amid
rising concerns about the disap-
pointing performance so far of
the electronic pull-tab games
that are supposed to help the
state generate $350 million in
coming years to pay pack stadi-
um construction bonds.
Lenczewski noted that she
had voted against the stadium
but said all lawmakers have a re-
sponsibility to address the prob-
lem before it gets out of hand.
The first bonds are supposed to
go on sale in August, and the
groundbreaking is scheduled for
October with a hoped-for 2016
opening to the new stadium.
We dont know what those
numbers are going to be in June,
July, Lenczewski said of the un-
derperforming gambling tax rev-
enue. Were not going to be here
after May 20, and were not go-
ing to be back until sometime in
2014. If we can see theres poten-
tially a gap coming, we should
try to solve it now.

Zuccarellos SO goal lifts
Rangers over Maple Leafs
NEW YORK Mats Zucca-
rello scored the lone goal in the
shootout, and the New York
Rangers overcame another
two-goal performance by To-
rontos Phil Kessel to beat the
Maple Leafs 3-2 on Wednesday
night.
The Rangers moved back
into seventh place in the East-
ern Conference.
Zuccarello, called out before
the game by Rangers coach
John Tortorella to score more,
connected in the second round
of the tiebreaker against James
Reimer. Henrik Lundqvist
turned aside all three Toronto
shooters, and the Rangers (20-
16-4) moved into a flat-footed
tie with the New York Island-
ers, who had claimed seventh
on Tuesday.
The area rivals will meet
Saturday on Long Island.
The Ottawa Senators also
are even with the Rangers and
Islanders with 44 points at
the bottom of the East race.
Toronto has 49 points.
Carl Hagelin and defense-
man Ryan McDonagh both
had a goal and assist in the
second period for the Rangers,
who carried a 2-1 lead into the
third. New York is 12-0-0 this
season when leading after two
and 82-0-6, dating to the 2009-
10 season.
The teams engaged in a very
spirited overtime that featured
chances at both ends and only
one stoppage of play in the
5-minute period. Lundqvist
kept the Rangers in it with a
series of in-close saves, culmi-
nating with a stop with his arm
to deny Nazem Kadri.
Toronto outshot New York
4-2 in overtime but trailed 28-
25 overall.
Kessel powered the Maple
Leafs for a second consecutive
game in three days against the
Rangers. After getting a pair of
goals and an assist in Torontos
4-3 home win over New York
on Monday, Kessel struck
again for two more goals, in-
cluding the tying tally 8:05 into
the third period.
Rangers defenseman Dan
Girardi turned over the puck at
the right point, and James van
Riemsdyk raced up ice alone.
He was joined by Kessel, who
took a cross-zone pass and
slammed in a shot to make it
2-2.
Bruins 5, Devils 4
NEWARK, N.J. Gregory
Campbell scored twice in a
three-goal first period and the
Boston Bruins regained first
place in the Northeast Division
with a victory over the reeling
New Jersey Devils.
In winning for the fifth time
in six games, the Bruins scored
three times against Martin Bro-
deur in the opening 8:12, took
a four-goal lead and then held
on. Daniel Paille and Campbell
capped the outburst with short-
handed goals in a 3:21 span.
Zdeno Chara and Tyler
Seguin also scored and backup
goaltender Anton Khudobin
made 24 saves as the Bruins
(56 points) moved a point
ahead of the Montreal Ca-
nadiens with nine games to
play in the lockout-shortened
season. Patrik Elias, Travis
Zajac, Andy Greene and Matt
DAgostini scored for New

day in Washington.
Heat B-team snags home court
WASHINGTON Ray Allen
scored 23 points, LeBron James
and Dwyane Wade chilled at
the end of the bench, and the
Miami Heats B-squad gave the
resting A-team the gift of home-
court advantage throughout
the playoffs Wednesday night,
clinching the best record in the
NBA with a 103-98 victory over
the Washington Wizards.
With James (right ham-
string) and Wade (sprained
ankle and bruised knee) look-
ing like two guys sitting at a
bus stop, and Chris Bosh at
home with flu-like symptoms,
plus Udonis Haslem getting the
night off because of a sore right
ankle, the what-was-left-over of
the Heat committed 25 turn-
overs but still managed the win
that assured theyll finish better
than the Western Conference-
leading San Antonio Spurs.
Magic 113, Bucks 103
ORLANDO, Fla. Nik
Vucevic had 30 points and 20
rebounds, Tobias Harris added
30 points and 19 rebounds,
and the Orlando Magic rallied
for a overtime victory over the
Milwaukee Bucks.
The Magic overcame a
five-point deficit in the final
minute of regulation, sending it
to OT on a 3-pointer by Harris
with 1.9 seconds left. Vucevic
and Harris combined for nine
points in the extra period to
help Orlando snap a five-game
losing streak.
Monta Ellis led the Bucks
with 21 points, and John Hen-
son and Mike Dunleavy each
added 17. Henson also had 25
rebounds for Milwaukee, which
lost its 14th straight game in
Orlando.
Hawks 124, 76ers 101
PHILADELPHIA Josh
Smith had 28 points and 12 re-
bounds, John Jenkins added 21
points and the Atlanta Hawks
blitzed the Philadelphia.
Mike Scott contributed 17, Al
Horford had 16 and Jeff Teague
13 for the Hawks, who snapped
a three-game losing streak and
improved to 43-36.
The Hawks pulled into a tie
with the Chicago Bulls for fifth
place in the Eastern Confer-
ence playoff chase. The Hawks
recently clinched their sixth
straight playoff berth but were
coming off losses to the Sixers,
New York Knicks and San
Antonio.
Pistons 111, Cavaliers 104
CLEVELAND Andre
Drummond scored a career-
high 29 points and the Detroit
Pistons won a second straight
game for the first time in two
months with a victory over the
Cleveland Cavaliers.
Greg Monroes basket with
38.8 seconds remaining gave
Detroit a 105-103 lead and
the Pistons, who hadnt won
consecutive games since Feb.
8-9, swept the four-game season
series from the Cavaliers. De-
troit has beaten Cleveland six
straight times.
Drummond also grabbed 11
rebounds, while Monroe scored
23 points and Rodney Stuckey
added 18.
Kyrie Irving scored 27 points,
including 21 in the second half,
but missed a 3-pointer that
would have given the Cavaliers
the lead with 21 seconds left.
The All-Star guard was playing
on the second night of back-to-
back games for the first time
since returning from a shoulder
injury.
Nets 101, Celtics 93
BOSTON Deron Williams
had 29 points and 12 assists to
lead the Brooklyn Nets to a win
over the Boston Celtics.
Brook Lopez scored 21
points and Joe Johnson added
20 for Brooklyn, which won for
the 12 time in 18 games overall
and beat the Celtics for the
third time in four meetings this
season.
The Nets moved closer to
wrapping up fourth place in the
Eastern Conference and clinch-
ing homecourt advantage in
the first round. Brooklyn owns
a 3 1/2-game edge over idle
Chicago with four games left to
play in the regular season.
Paul Pierce led Boston with
23 points for the Celtics.
As Jay-Z sells, Nets losing minor owner, big name
NEW YORK (AP) The Brooklyn Nets are losing one of their
biggest names as they prepare for the playoffs.
Jay-Z owned just a little piece of the team, but was a large
presence when the franchise changed homes and identities this
season.
The rap mogul is selling his stake in the Nets so he can be-
come certified as a player agent, possibly before the end of the
season. The process is underway, with paperwork already filed,
a person with knowledge of the details said Wednesday.
NBA rules prevent anyone from being involved in ownership
and player representation.
Yahoo Sports, which first reported Jay-Zs plans, said his Roc
Nation company has partnered with Creative Artists Agency
(CAA) and hopes to compete for players in this Junes NBA
draft.
Jay-Z owns less than 1 percent of the Nets, but has had a
major impact with the franchises move to his hometown. He
had input and in some cases complete control of everything
from the interior of the $1 billion Barclays Center to the design
of the teams black-and-white uniforms, which he debuted him-
self during his run of eight sold-out concerts in September that
served as the debut of the arena.
A spokesman for Jay-Z, whose real name is Shawn Carter,
did not respond to a message.

Nesbitt wont play in this
weekends games in St. Johns,
but will join the team early next
week, Hynes said. As far as what
line Nesbitt will play on, Hynes
hasnt yet made that decision.
Right now for us its about
the ability to add a high-char-
acter player with the ability to
score, Hynes said. He has the
drive and passion to get to the
NHL, and thats the type of play-
er we want here.
TRADE
racing.
This place was built by Indy-
Car for IndyCar, Pocono CEO
Brandon Igdalsky said. Its part
of who we are.Marco Andretti
was not yet 3 years old when
three Andrettis Michael, Ma-
rio and John all competed in
the last Pocono race. Andretti,
from nearby Nazareth, said he
was excited to have the chance
to drive in front of friends, fam-
ily heck, probably the entire
town will be on hand in July.
Im going to have a huge
hometown crowd, Andretti
said. I think Ill have to rene-
gotiate my contract with dad to
get more tickets for this race,
for sure. But the hometown sup-
ports going to be huge. The con-
venience of it is huge. But obvi-
ously its going to be tough, just
like the rest of em.
Having grandpa Mario, who a
Pocono race in 1986, out to as-
sist could give him an edge.
Hell definitely be valuable,
especially on the race weekend,
Andretti said. Id be foolish to
not listen to what he has to say,
anywhere really, not just here.
Franchitti was the only driver
with experience at the track,
competing in 2008 during his
ill-fated NASCAR stint. The
facility has since undergone a
multimillion-dollar renovation
that included significant safety
upgrades, and the track was
repaved in 2012 offering glass-
smooth racing at 200 mph.
Thats really allowed us as In-
dyCar as a group to come back
here. Its very much appreciat-
ed, Franchitti said. I said at the
time, to run an IndyCar around
here would be a blast, and it is.
Franchitti struggled in the first
two IndyCar races with consecu-
tive 25th-place finishes and is off
to the worst start of his career.
He went to pit lane 41 laps into
Sundays race at Barber Motors-
ports Park with an electrical is-
sue after driving from the back
of the field into the top-10.
Hes last in the IndyCar Series
standings.
Its not like an ideal start.
But well keep plugging away,
he said. The trick will be to
be competitive every weekend,
then weve got half a chance of
closing the gap.
Franchitti can name three big
wins this season hed love to
have on his resume. In bringing
Pocono back to the schedule,
IndyCar resurrected the Triple
Crown challenge, a three-race
competition in 2013 for $1 mil-
lion to the driver that wins the
Indianapolis 500, the 400-miler
at Pocono and the season finale
at Fontana, Calif. The challenge
will give $250,000 if a driver
wins two of the three races.
To pull that off would be pret-
ty massive, Power said. Three
very tough tracks. Its tough
enough just to finish the three,
let alone win the three. I dont
know much about the Triple
Crown, to be honest.
Theres money involved,
mate, Franchitti said, laughing.
Its not a points system, its
just if you won the three? Power
said. Wow, Im going to have to
do that.
The drivers will return July 4
for another open test. About 300
fans attended Wednesdays test
and Igdalsky said enthusiasm in
the area is high for another race.
Perhaps impressed by cool cars
and sizzling speeds, plenty of
fans lined up at the ticket win-
dow to snag a seat for the race
on July 7.
Igdalsky said he wanted to
check out an IndyCar race at St.
Petersburg last season as a fan,
but it morphed into a conversa-
tion with series officials that led
to the return. Hes locked the
track into a three-year deal with
IndyCar.
Igdalsky also has looked at
how other tracks expanded its
use outside racing and plans for
Pocono to host more than motor
sports.
Dover International Speedway
in Delaware, for example, will
host the wildly popular Firefly
Music Festival again in June.

Then, of course, his personal
life fell apart and everything
seemed to change.
Suddenly, Woods wasnt this
invincible machine. A new wave
of young golfers, led by Rory Mc-
Ilroy, arrived on the scene and
didnt seem the least bit intimi-
dated by the Tiger mystique.
With each passing year, each
year without adding a major
title to his resume, it became a
little tougher to envision Woods
leaping over the lofty bar set by
Nicklaus.
Obviously, the older he gets
and if he doesnt win, it makes
my record move out further,
the Golden Bear said Tuesday.
I still expect him to break my
record. I think hes just too tal-
ented, too driven, and too fo-
cused on that.
But something to consider:
Nicklaus won only four major
titles after the age of 37, which
Woods reached in December.
Tiger needs five to break the
mark, which, as Nicklaus point-
ed out, is a pretty good career
for most people.
Considering Woods is almost
always in contention at Augusta,
even in the down times, and tak-
ing into account that he seems to
have regained the form he had
before injuries and scandalous
revelations sent his career into a
tailspin, this would seem to be a
very important milestone on his
road to redemption.
If Woods wins, suddenly, ev-
eryone will go back to project-
ing him breezing right on by
Nicklaus record.
But, if he comes up short
again, all the doubts are back on
the table.
If he figures it out here, it
will be a great boost for him,
Nicklaus said. If he doesnt fig-
ure it out here, after the spring
hes had, I think it will be a lot
tougher for him.
Around every corner at Au-
gusta National is another re-
minder that Woods isnt getting
any younger.
He played a practice round
with a teenager fromChina who
wasnt even born when Woods
won his first Masters in 1997.
He was introduced at his news
conference Tuesday as playing
the Masters for the 19th time,
which caused Woods to bow his
head and cover his eyes.
Among dozens of photo-
graphs on the walls of the club
is one of Phil Mickelson helping
Woods with a much fuller
head of hair into the green
jacket after Woods won his last
Masters, eight long years ago.
Obviously, Im not real hap-
py with the fact that I havent
won more, Woods conceded.
But the whole idea is to give
myself opportunities. And as of
right now, Im tied for second
on the all-time win list here. So
thats not too bad, either.
Woods has changed his prac-
tice routine at this major. For
years, he was known as a dew
sweeper, playing his practice
rounds at the crack of dawn.
This week, he hasnt shown up
at the course until after lunch.
He played Monday afternoon
with 14-year-old Guan Tianlang
and Dustin Johnson. After his
news conference, Woods head-
ed to the practice range before
playing nine holes with Fred
Couples.
Asked about the change,
Woods was coy, telling a re-
porter with whom hes familiar,
Just wanted to mess with you.
He smiled, never giving an ex-
planation, so that much hasnt
changed about Woods.
The biggest difference is his
health and his game, which are
connected.
There has been so much ac-
tivity off the golf course the
extramarital affairs that ended
his marriage, changing coach-
es to rebuild his swing for the
fourth time, a move to South
Florida to a mansion so large
he has his own practice range
in the backyard, a romance with
Olympic skiing champion Lind-
sey Vonn that it was easy to
overlook what he went through
with his ailing left leg.
He finally turned a corner last
year winning three times on
the PGA Tour and getting
back into contention at the ma-
jors.
The wins are piling up, and
they are impressive. He led by
as many as eight shots on the
back nine at Torrey Pines. He
was never seriously challenged
over the final hour at Doral and
Bay Hill, two more wins that
marked the first time in 10 years
hes had three wins in a season
coming into the Masters.
But hes got competition:
Mickelson came within a
fraction of an inch from shoot-
ing 59 this year whenhe wonthe
Phoenix Open, and while hes a
bit nervous about not playing
the week before the Masters as
he usually does, he can contend
at Augusta even when hes not
on form. A win this year would
give him as many green jackets
as Woods.
McIlroy, the golfer Woods
supplanted at the top of the
world rankings, is getting his
game together at the right time,
finishing second last week in
the Texas Open.
Watson knows only three
golfers have won back-to-back
Masters, but his power and
creativity make him a threat to
claim another green jacket.
MASTERS
AUGUSTA, Ga. Its small
consolation, but hardcore Tiger
Woods fans who cant make it
to the Masters for Thursdays
opening round can at least take
the morning off.
No matter how many screens
you own, golfs biggest draw
wont make his way onto any
of them until sometime after
1 p.m., EST, when the Woods
threesome which includes
Luke Donald and Scott Piercy
reaches the 11th hole. Thats
the start of Amen Corner and
not coincidentally, part of the
bonus coverage being streamed
live on Masters.com, as well as
several other online outlets.
The Masters websites live
coverage of this years tourna-
ment begins with a streaming
telecast from the driving range
at 10:45 a.m., which is when the
Woods group tees off. Fifteen
minutes later, coverage of the
15th and 16th holes comes
online. At 11:45, viewers will
be able to follow the first of
the days three featured groups
Charl Schwartzel, Webb
Simpson and Peter Hanson
as they play the back nine.
Theyll be followed at noon
by the trio of K.J. Choi, Zach
Johnson and Graeme McDowell.
The last featured group is Rory
McIlroy, Keegan Bradley and
Freddie Jacobson. Live televi-
sion coverage doesnt begin
until 3 p.m. on ESPN.
The clubs daily selection of
featured pairings is designed
to provide online viewers with
three strong groups each
with at least one major win-
ner playing the back nine
to follow ahead of the full TV
coverage. The idea is whet the
appetite and not, as some might
suspect, to slight Woods.
If anything, in fact, think
of Thursdays coverage as the
anti-Golf Channel, which rarely
passes up the opportunity to
show Woods on the course.
His group will also be part of
Fridays featured
A TRADITION LIKE NO
OTHER: Paul Azinger was play-
ing a practice round with Mark
Calcavecchia and Ken Green in
1988 when the trio arrived at
the 16th, a 170-yard, par-3 over
a pond that stretches from the
tee to a severely sloping green.
To spice things up, each anted
up $100 to be awarded to who-
ever could skip the ball across
the water like a flat stone
and onto the putting surface.
In the years since, the sophis-
ticated Masters galleries are in
on the joke, practically demand-
ing that every group playing the
16th do the same.
Nowadays, you get booed
if you dont go along, Azinger
recalled on the 25th anniversary
of that singular event.
So who cashed that day?
No one made it to the
green, Azinger said.
But, hey, at least no one got
booed.
BRIDGE OVER NOT-SO-
TROUBLED WATERS: So if
players dont go along with the
informal practice-round tradi-
tion at No. 16, how do they keep
the boo-birds happy?
Well, a hole-in-one certainly
works. Defending champion
Bubba Watson did just that dur-
ing his practice round.
Everyone is going to say he
should have saved it, laughed
Fred Couples, who was playing
behind Watsons group and had
a great vantage point for the
ace. He hit a good shot and it
went in. I think thats well worth
it.
And Watson got an ovation,
besides.
Oh yeah, Couples con-
firmed.
Couples, a past champion
himself, collected an ace of
his own at Augusta National a
while back, but it was on the
par-3 course. Those arent nearly
as rare. Ben Crenshaw made
his hole-in-one on No. 7 of the
little course and Nick Watney
made another at No. 9.
MEMBERS BOUNCE:
Speaking of knocking it straight
into the cup, Gene Sarazen
made the first albatross on the
par-5, 15th hole at Augusta Na-
tional when he holed out from
235 yards with a 4-wood in the
final round of the 1935 Masters.
It became known as the shot
heard round the world.
Former USGA president Fred
Ridley made the most recent 2,
and no one saw it not even
Ridley.
Ridley, a club member and
chairman of the Masters compe-
tition committee, was playing in
the late afternoon a few weeks
ago when he hit hybrid for his
second shot.
We couldnt see it go in,
Ridley said. It was late in the
evening and the sun was in our
eyes. When we got to the hole,
it was a weird feeling.
It was the first albatross for
Ridley, a former U.S. Amateur
champion.
The club said it was only the
fourth known double eagle on
the 15th hole.
YOUTH WILL BE SERVED:
Matteo Manassero is no longer
the most precocious teenager at
the Masters.
The 19-year-old Italian, who
three years ago became the
youngest player to make the cut
at Augusta National, is paired
for the first two rounds with
Guan Tiangling, the 14-year-old
from China who will soon own
that distinction.
I hope hes going to have so
much fun like I did, Manassero
said
Manassero already had a well-
deserved reputation as a phe-
nom when he arrived in 2010.
The previous year hed become
the youngest and first Italian
to win the British Amateur.
He also was the youngest to win
the Silver Medal, given to the
leading amateur at the British
Open.
While there was plenty of
hype surrounding his first ap-
pearance here, Manassero said
he never felt pressured.
Last time it was much more
about enjoying, he said. It was
great that I had that opportunity
because, of course, not many
amateurs have that, and I got
to make some experiences you
wouldnt be able to make as a
professional.
Manassero turned profession-
al shortly after tying for 36th at
Augusta National, and later that
year became the youngest win-
ner in European Tour history
with his victory at the Castello
Masters.

For Tiger
followers,
a day to
sleep in
By JIMLITKE
AP National Writer
NEW YORK In an age when checks
can be deposited by smartphone and al-
most everyone retrieves cash fromATMs,
the corner bank can seem a relic, with its
paper deposit slips, marble countertops
and human tellers behind glass partitions.
But some banking executives say the
brick-and-mortar branch is still the best
way to serve existing customers and
snag new ones. Theyre trying to rebuild
the nations neighborhood banks into
hip, airy spaces where customers sign
up for loans without touching a piece of
paper, sign in to ATMs with a tap of their
smartphones and talk to off-site tellers
by video.
Flashiness is only part of the reason
for the makeovers. Mounting costs from
legal fees and newregulations vestiges
of the nancial crisis have given the
banks good reason to become more ef-
cient. The new branches will help them
replace expensive human workers with
cheaper machines, a development that
could eventually make the bank teller an
endangered species.
Most redesigns aim to let customers
complete simple transactions, such as
deposits, for themselves. That frees bank
employees for tasks that make money,
such as persuading someone who wan-
ders in to put money into a mutual fund
or renance a mortgage.
Banks have been talking about branch
of the future for more than a decade,
says Bob Meara, a senior banking analyst
at research and consulting rm Celent.
And almost nobody has been doing any-
thing until the past couple years.
Banks large and small are on board.
In a Celent survey in June, 55 percent of
banks said they were planning signi-
cant changes to their branches, up from
24 percent two years earlier.
At an investor conference in February,
JPMorgan Chase executives touted their
new branches as places where ATMs
distribute exact change, machines count
cash so tellers dont have to and open
oor plans evoke the atmosphere of an
Apple store or boutique hotel, features
that other banks are also embracing.
BUSINESS
SECTI ON B
IN BRIEF
S&P at an all-time high
Technology stocks roared back
Wednesday, driving the Standard &
Poors 500 and Dow Jones industrial
average to record highs.
The industry has lagged the broader
market this year, but surged after net-
work communication company Adtran
reported earnings that were double
what Wall Street analysts expected.
That boosted optimism that businesses
will increase spending on technology
equipment.
Chipmakers Micron and Intel
jumped, as did other network equip-
ment makers such as Cisco and JDS
Uniphase. Stocks were also up on an op-
timistic reading of the Federal Reserve
Banks latest minutes.
Taco Bell eyes healthy choices
Taco Bell isnt putting down the cha-
lupa just yet, but its embarking on a
push to shake its reputation as a pur-
veyor of junk food.
The fast-food chain announced
Wednesday that its exploring ways to
offer more balanced choices and trans-
parency. In a call with reporters, CEO
Greg Creed said that could mean new
products and reformulations of existing
offerings.
Creed said the chain is testing a
range of products this year, with na-
tional launches planned for 2014. He
declined to provide more details on the
test products but noted that the com-
pany would remain true to its brand.
By 2020, Taco Bell says 20 percent of
its combo meals will meet nutritional
guidelines for calories and fat set out by
the federal government. It did not im-
mediately know what portion of meals
currently meet those guidelines.
SEC off hook for Madoff
Investors in Bernard Madoffs epic
fraud cannot hold the Securities and
Exchange Commission responsible
for failing to expose his decades-long
Ponzi scheme, despite its regrettable
inaction, a federal appeals court said
Wednesday.
The ruling by a three-judge panel of
the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in
Manhattan followed a similar decision
by a San Francisco-based appeals court
in January. Both rejected lawsuits by in-
vestors seeking to make the agency pay
for failing to discover the fraud.
The SECs actions, along with its
regrettable inaction, are shielded by
rules protecting government employ-
ees from lawsuits when they act or
fail to act based on judgment, rather
than ignoring a statute or regulation,
the court in New York wrote.
Madoff pleaded guilty in 2009 to
fraud and is serving a 150-year prison
sentence.

Banks rethink the branch
By CHRISTINA REXRODE
AP Business Writer
There
have long
been rumors
about an
impending
Facebook
Phone. This
has always struck me as a little
odd. The smartphone market
is already crowded, devices
and operating systems arent
Facebooks core competency,
and it would need to move well
out of its usual comfort zone to
actually make it work.
These rumors, however,
were persistent, and came
from fairly credible sources.
Even so, companies kick ideas
around all the time. Mobile is
a big market, and the exist-
ing Facebook apps are prone
to long load times and a less
than stellar experience, com-
pared to the full page.
Well, it turns out I was right
and wrong. In retrospect,
everyone who was talking
about the Facebook Phone
should have seen what was
actually coming.
Facebook has come Home.
To the homescreen on your
phone, that is. It has released
a new app called Facebook
Home that transforms the
homescreen and lock screen
of your Android phone with
a Facebook feed and a launch
screen for apps and other pro-
grams. This app will initially
be available for the Samsung
Galaxy S3, S4, Note 2, and
HTC One, One X and HTC
First devices - starting today.
Calling it an app is selling
it a bit short its actually
more of a total re-skin that
puts status updates, likes and
posts front and center. Its not
the usual, relatively conserva-
tive Facebook fare, either, but
a more modern, photo-and-
graphic-centric design that
is touch-optimized and quite
a bit more beautiful than the
current Facebook app.
Facebook has also totally
redesigned the Facebook Mes-
senger app, and nowunder
Facebook Home, conversations
with people using either Text
or Facebook chat will be visible
no matter what you happen
to be doing on your device.
The companys calling this
feature Chat Heads, which is
a nomenclature nonstarter as
far as Imconcerned, but hey,
its their app, so they can call it
what they want, I guess.
Many novice Android us-
ers have complained about
the relative complexity of
navigating Androids Apps,
Widgets, and Folders. Face-
book Homes app launcher
removes that onerous prob-
lem, simplifying how apps
are presented to users into a
basic grid. I personally favor
Androids native app launcher
because even though its
more complex, its also more
functional but Ive heard
the complaint often enough,
from enough different people,
to recognize that I may be in
the minority there.
Facebook is basically aiming
to make devices running Face-
book Home more people-cen-
tric than app-centric, and by
developing a totally new, im-
mersive interface that is stuffed
to the gills with Facebook
functionality, available from
the two top-tier manufacturers
of Android phones, Facebook is
basically ensuring that anytime
you use your phone at all,
youre using a Facebook app.
These are smart people, no
question about it.

home. To download Facebook
Home, visit the Google Play
store and search for Facebook
Home under apps.

Feds to
continue
stimulus
Bond buys to continue at
least until mid-year, despite
some reservations.
By CHRISTOPHERS. RUGABER
AP Economics Writer
WASHINGTON A majority
of Federal Reserve policymakers
want to continue extraordinary
bond purchases to help boost the
U.S. economy at least through the
middle of the year, according to
minutes from the Feds last meet-
ing released Wednesday.
But many members indicated
they want to slow and eventually
end the programbefore the end of
the year, as long as the job market
and economy show sustained im-
provement. The Feds purchases
of about $85 billion a month in
Treasury and mortgage bonds are
intended to lower long-terminter-
est rates and encourage more bor-
rowing and spending.
The minutes of the Feds March
19-20 meeting were released at
9 a.m. EDT ve hours earlier
than planned after the Fed in-
advertently sent them a day ear-
lier to congressional staffers and
lobbyists.
One gets the sense that many
Fed policymakers are anxious to
start paring back the size of the
purchases as soon as the data al-
low, Dana Saporta, an economist
at Credit Suisse, said in a note to
clients.

EW YORK Kim Kardashian: Take note.
To be stylish and pregnant, you need to embrace your new shape. You
have to celebrate it. But you also need to be aware of it, and not keep
wearing your regular wardrobe even if its a size up.
Kardashian, who is expecting her rst child with Kanye West in July, has tak-
en heat from the tabloids and armchair fashion critics for her maternity look,
which seems a continuation of her usual parade of body-hugging dresses
many of which have a hard-to-wear hemline that hits below the knee
tucked-in blouses, complicated couturelike details and super-high
heels.
Lately, though, it seems shes taken the plunge into maternity
clothes, sometimes wearing stretch-waist maternity jeans
(designer, of course) and leggings, which Pea in the Pod
design director Olivia Capone Myers says are the
No. 1 must-have item for a successful pre- and
post-baby wardrobe.

with her rst child. Fashion experts say a streamlined
style best suits a baby bump. Kim Kardashian has taken
heat from the tabloids and armchair fashion critics for
her maternity look, which seems a continuation of her
usual parade of body-hugging dresses. Kate Middleton
has made a seamless transition into her slightly re-
vamped look. Actors Channing Tatum and his pregnant
wife, Jenna Dewan-Tatum, were photographed while
expecting at the 85th Academy Awards at the Dolby
Theatre in Los Angeles.

Leggings, along with side-
ruched T-shirts and dresses,
preferably made of stretch jer-
sey, are the rst things to buy
when the bump starts showing,
and theyre the last ones youre
wearing after momand baby are
settled in at home, Myers says.
Myers, herself 8 months preg-
nant, says the current wave of
celebrity moms-to-be has re-
ignited interest in this corner
of the fashion world, which is
sometimes more relatable to
shoppers than the runway. The
key, experts say, is to stay true
to your personal style, but not
be so stubborn that you wont
tweak it.
Jessica Simpson shes real-
ly done an amazing job of look-
ing fabulous. She has tweaked
her style, moving from heels
to ats but still polished. Shes
kept her sense of style even with
her changing body, and she isnt
afraid to sport trends, Myers
says. Shes wearing maxi dress-
es and lace.
Baukjen de Swaan Arons, de-
signer of the British-based ma-
ternity label Isabella Oliver, has
been watching star style, too.
She liked the way Jenna Dewan
Tatum wore the brands tted
couture black lace gown at the
Oscars earlier this year, but she
says that its equally stylish to be
out and about in a jersey top.
And she gives kudos to a then-
pregnant Kristen Bell for doing
a rock-n-roll leather jacket and
bright purple dress at the Sun-
dance Film Festival. (Bell has
since given birth to a daughter.)
The Duchess of Cambridge
Kate Middleton possesses what
might be the worlds most fa-
mous baby bump, and she has
made a seamless transition into
her slightly revamped look. She
already wore mostly pretty,
attering and simple silhou-
ettes dresses, coats, hats and
monochromatic color, exactly
what style expert Amy Tara
Koch would suggest.
She gets the balance, pro-
portion, simplicity. It seems
her nature, so it will already be
easier for her to look good every
day throughout her pregnancy,
says Koch, who wrote the book
Bump It Up.
But thats not howKardashian
dresses, so there are other tips,
Koch says: Kimono sleeves in-
stantly create the bohemian vibe
that works well in maternity
wear, and so do tunic tops with
a blousoned dropped waist. The
high necks and below-the-knee
hemlines Kardashian some-
times wears do not. Dangling
earrings would draw the eye to
the slope of the neck and shoul-
ders, and a chunky necklace
worn against a jewel neck or
slightly scooped or V-neck shirt
would emphasize the bustline
upward.
You want to create a focal
point that will take attention
from elsewhere, Koch says.
Kims face looks so pretty now.
She has that glow. Thats what
we should be looking at.
Fit is also important. Stay
away from extremes whether
its too tight or too loose, says
designer Rebecca Minkoff, who
blogs for BabyCenter.com.
Oversized clothes might t
the bump but will work against
everywhere else, agrees de
Swaan Arons. Consider this the
time to show off nice legs or a
bit of cleavage.
Jersey fabric with its tight-
weave stretch is good camou-
age (and not just for pregnant
women). Designer Abi Ferrin
says good jersey will stretch and
shrink with the body and that
the weight of the fabric smooths
bumps.
The garment should be cut to
give a little bit of structure be-
cause the jersey is so forgiving,
Ferrin says.
Minkoff got through her rst
trimester by looping a hair band
around the button loop of her
pants, but, she says, eventually
moms-to-be turn to maternity
clothes. Also, its OK if they
eventually need a little con-
dence boost to alleviate doubts
about a changing gure, she
says. Her easy x? Invest in
great shoes, great jewelry and
a great jacket.
Researcher MyungHee Sohn,
an assistant professor of tex-
tile and apparel management
at the University of Missouri,
has found that, based on body
scans, most pregnant women
should be moving into mater-
nity clothes in their fth month,
though shoppers typically put it
off longer, and the industry uses
a 7-month model for most of its
measurements.
By the time they are ve
months pregnant, its not just
their belly that has grown, but
also their bust, waist and hips,
Sohn says. Its denitely a new
shape. Its not just the body of a
woman who gained weight.
Pea in the Pods Myers notes
that whats in maternity stores
now reects broader fashion
trends. Youll nd the tunic-
and-blazer combination, the
cardigans layered with nice
Ts, and even the bright pops
of color and springtime prints.
The mistake I see most is the
mentality that they think they
have to stay away from stripes,
or orals or prints because they
fear them to be unattering, but
I think the opposite is true, she
says.
A clean, sharp nautical stripe,
for example, will break up the
bump.
An it look, like a peplum,
which she dubs an arrow to
your hips, can be harder to pull
off, Koch says. Instead consider
of-the-moment accessories,
such as a shoe-bootie with a
stacked heel or a candy-colored,
oversized handbag.
Just dont overstuff it yet.
Pretty soon that will turn into a
heavy diaper bag, Minkoff says.

Dear Abby: PO Box 69440, Los Ange-
les, CA 90069

O N T H E W E B
Dear Abby: I would
like to know what
the fascination is
with putting plugs
in ones earlobes. I
have seen some as
large as half dollar
coins. What does the
person do if he regrets having done
this to his ears? Can the holes be sur-
gically closed?
Unpierced in Scottsdale, Ariz.
Dear Unpierced: I spoke to James
Wisniewski of the Body Electric Tat-
too piercing studio in Los Angeles.
He told me that, as with any type of
body modification, the ear plugs are a
matter of personal taste.
The process is referred to as
stretching, and James has had his
earlobes this way for the past 14
years. The modification is a gradual
process, with larger jewelry being in-
serted as the hole becomes larger.
James recommends consulting a
plastic surgeon if someone decides to
have the hole closed because new tis-
sue is grown as a result of the earlobe
stretching. The extra skin may have
to be removed.
Dear Abby: I am 17 and I want to
start writing a book about things I
have been through in my life. My
family is all for it, but my friends are
against it. I am torn about what I
should do. I feel if I write this book
it will help kids my age who may
have been through some of the same
things I have.
Should I go through with it or not
because my friends think its a stupid
idea? I know Im not the smartest
person and getting a publisher is dif-
ficult, but does that make it a stupid
idea to try? What should I do?
Conflicted in Indiana
Dear Conflicted: Your reason for
wanting to write a book is a valid one
and you should proceed with it re-
gardless of what your friends think. It
will help you organize your thoughts,
and if you show your chapters to your
English teacher, you can effectively
sharpen your writing skills.
Worrying about a publisher now
is putting the cart before the horse.
While it might be helpful for other
teens to read, I promise you that
even if the book isnt published, it
will become a treasured time capsule
containing the thoughts that were im-
portant to you during this formative
period of your life.
Dear Abby: What is the correct
response when asked at a doctors of-
fice or hospital if you drink? I drink
socially, maybe once a month. Should
I say yes? If I do, Im afraid it will im-
ply that I drink more often.
I always end up feeling awkward
and like I need to explain myself.
Im pretty proud telling them I dont
smoke or do drugs, but the alcohol
question always gets me. What do
other people who drink on occasion
usually say?
Filling Out the Forms in Ohio
Dear Filling: In my doctors office I
was asked that question, and my re-
sponse was, Yes, OCCASIONALLY.
At that point, the follow-up question
was, How many drinks do you have a
week? Because this question makes
you uncomfortable, mention to your
physician that you indulge in alcohol
only about once a month which is
practically negligible.
DEAR ABBY
A D V I C E
Beholder does not see the beauty in earlobes that are stretched large
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 may
slacken the reins and let the
horse lead once in a while, but
never release your grip. If the
horse takes off and youre not
holding the reins, the angels will
be challenged to help you.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You
are in touch with reality, but
not bound to it. Today you pre-
fer to be a player on the stage.
Pretending is fun, especially
when you dont take the char-
acter youre portraying too seri-
ously.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You dont
usually think of a bold person as
someone with tears in his eyes,
but the one who is unafraid to
show his feelings in action is the
very definition of bold.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Youre
ready for the task at hand, so
trust yourself. The only mistake
you could make is being unaware
of whats going on around you.
Stay sharp.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). When its
time to be serious, tell the truth.
When youre trying to be funny,
tell the truth. Youll encounter
both opportunities today. The
humorous truth-telling will be far
more enjoyable.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You feel
like it all depends on you, and
this will be true to a great extent.
Though the group needs to work
together, success will be unlikely
without your contribution.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Approve
of yourself. There are so many
reasons to do so. Yes, youre
kind, giving and funny. But
heres an even bigger reason to
approve: It will be impossible to
get comfortable if you dont.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Living
consciously is hard work. When
you pay attention to everything
going on around you, integrating
that sensory input takes a great
deal of energy. Thats why you
cherish your quiet time tonight.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
Does someone in your midst
seem ready to pounce on your
slightest transgression? This
jealous force is actually compli-
menting you with the intensity of
her attention, though it certainly
wont feel that way.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
Your studies will lead you to
people who teach you and open
you in new ways. You cant do
anything about the length of
your life, but you can do some-
thing about its width and depth.
Evan Esar
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Youll
see new merit in what you do
for others. Your job is more than
work; its a gift you give to the
world. You gladly take the pay,
but its not the reason you serve.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You
may look around and see a mess,
but dont stop there. Look even
deeper into the potential future
of the sloppily arranged ele-
ments. Try to envision what art
you might make of this.
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (April 11).
Its a year of unusual pursuits
through which you become more
interesting to yourself and oth-
ers. Attention will be lavished on
you through the next four weeks.
A bold move in your personal life
might include some kind of train-
ing or a change in your appear-
ance. Your lucky numbers are: 4,
14, 38, 29 and 6.
