LOS ANGELES Break out
the New Years bubbly because a
new poll shows that almost two-
thirds of Americans believe that
2012 will be a better year than
the one now ending.
The Associated Press-GfK
poll also found that 68 percent
of Americans described 2011 as
a poor year and only 29 percent
said it was good.
For many, 2011 was a year of
continuing economic crisis. Jobs
openings remained scarce and
many once-secure professions
such as education and public
employment saw changes as
states and cities tightened their
fiscal belts. Prices for basic ne-
cessities such as health care,
food and fuel rose throughout
the year, squeezing even people
who were able to keep working.
According to the poll, 62 per-
cent of Americans said they
were optimistic about what
2012 will bring the nation, and
78 percent said they were up-
beat about the years potential
impact on their immediate fam-
ily.
About 37 percent said they
see economic improvement in
the next 12 months, compared
with 24 percent who think the
economy will worsen. On a per-
sonal level, 36 percent said they
think their financial situation

EDWARDSVILLE Borough
police charged a man Thursday
with driving a stolen vehicle that
crashed during a pursuit on U.S.
Route 11 last week.
Abdur-Raheem McCoy, 20, of
Stark Street, Wilkes-Barre, was
arraigned by District Judge Paul
Roberts in Kingston on charges
of receiving stolen property, flee-
ing or attempting to elude po-
lice, reckless endangerment, ac-
cidents involving death or injury,
driving with a suspended license
and several traffic violations. He
was jailed at the Luzerne County
Correctional Facility for lack of
$25,000 bail.
Edwardsville police said
McCoy had to be extricated from
the vehicle he crashed near East
Main Street on Dec. 23. A pas-
senger in the vehicle, George
Lee Barnes, 23, was charged
with possession of a controlled
substance and assaulting an offi-
cer.
According to the criminal
complaint:
An officer spotted a Lincoln
with the headlights turned off on
Route 11 near the West Side Mall
at about 7:45 p.m. The vehicle
matched one in a report of an
armed carjacking on Park Ave-
nue in Wilkes-Barre on Dec. 22.
McCoy, identified as the driv-
er, refused to stop and drove at a
high rate of speed, weaving in
traffic toward Larksville. Police
lost sight of the vehicle near Bos-
ton Hill but soon found it had
collided with an SUV vehicle
near East Main Street.
Barnes, sitting in the front pas-
senger seat, threw punches at of-
ficers, striking Edwardsville offi-
cer Gina Kotowski in the face,
the criminal complaint says.
Barnes was taken into custody
after officer Michael Lehman
stunned him with a Taser.
Paramedics had to extricate
McCoy from the vehicle. Police
said in the criminal complaint
they found a pack of cigarettes
containing suspected crack co-
caine and an unloaded .40-cali-
ber handgun that was reported
stolen to the Easton Police De-
partment.
Barnes was charged with ag-
gravated assault, firearms not to
be carried without a license, pos-
session with intent to deliver a
controlled substance, possession
of a controlled substance and re-
sisting arrest. He remains jailed
at the county prison for lack of
$15,000 bail.
Preliminary hearings are
scheduled for Jan. 4.

sault and criminal conspiracy to
commit burglary.
The three men are charged
with assaulting Dougherty by
pulling him out of a 2011 Chev-

three different municipalities.
Police said the men then
burned the car in a wooded area

DES MOINES, Iowa With
time running short, Republican
presidential candidates Rick
Santorum, Rick Perry and Newt
Gingrich battled Thursday to
win over a pivotal crop of unde-
cided conservative voters.
Of all the candidates, only
Mitt Romney seemed to largely
escape attack as he worked to
win a state that long seemed out
of reach until this week.
Dont settle for whats not
good enough to save the coun-
try, the newly ascendant Santo-
rumimplored Iowans at city hall
in Coralville, urging voters to
put conservative principles
above everything else and sug-
gestingthat his rivals, andspecif-
ically Ron Paul, lacked them.
For the first time, though, the
former Pennsylvania senator be-
came a target.
When he talks about fiscal
conservatism, every now and
then it leaves me scratching my
head because he was a prolific
earmarker, Perry, the Texas
governor, said of Santorum as
the day began, referring to spe-
cial spending projects members
of Congress seek. He loaded up
his bill with Pennsylvania pork.
Perry also slapped at Santo-
ruminaradioadandinanewTV
commercial that lumps him in
with Minnesota Rep. Michele
Bachmann, former House
Speaker Newt Gingrich and Paul
and says: The fox guarding the
henhouse is like asking a con-
gressman to fix Washington: bad
idea.
The maneuvering under-
scored the fluid if not convo-
luted state of the GOP presi-
dential race as Tuesdays caucus-
es loom while cultural conserva-
tives and evangelical
Republicans, who make up the
base of the electorate here, con-
tinue to be divided. That lack of
unity paves the way for someone
who is seen as less consistently
conservative.
Five days out, public and pri-
vate polling show Romney and
Paul in strong contention to win
the caucuses, with coalitions of
support cobbled together from
across the Republican political
spectrum and their get-out-the-
vote operations beefed up
from their failed 2008 bids at
the ready. Theyre the only two
with the money and the organi-
zations necessary to ensure big
turnouts on Tuesday.
Three others Santorum,
Perry and Gingrich will have
to rely largely on momentum to
carry supporters to precinct cau-
cuses. Each was working to con-
vince fickle conservatives that
he alone wouldsatisfythose who
yearn for a nominee who would
adhere strictly to GOP ortho-
doxy.
Bachmann, meanwhile,
worked to convince backers that
her cash-strapped campaign was
not in disarray after a top sup-
porter in Iowa abandoned her to
back Paul and she faced pressure
to abandon her bid.
Iowans arent told who to
vote for. Iowans are independent
and theyre going to make their
decisions, Bachmann said in
Des Moines, on the last day of a
10-day tour of Iowas 99counties.
Ads, mostly negative, flooded
television and radio. They filled
mailboxes, too.
No less than five new TV ads
were rolled out Thursday, with
Romney, for one, releasing a 60-
second, optimistic commercial
promoting his vision for Ameri-
caandillustratinghis confidence
with his standing in the primary
race. He was staying far fromthe
fray and looking toward the gen-
eral election.
In the campaign to come, the
American ideals of economic
freedom and opportunity need a
clear and unapologetic defense.
And I intend to make it because I
have lived it, Romney says in
the commercial that includes pa-
triotic images and scenes from
his June campaign announce-
ment in New Hampshire.
Hes in the midst of a four-day
trek that he hopes will seal victo-
ry here and give himmomentum
heading into the Jan. 10 New
Hampshire primary, the closest
thing to a must-win state for the
former Massachusetts governor.
As Romney sailed above it all,
the fight raged among his rivals
elsewhere in the state, where all
six candidates competing in the
caucuses are spending almost all
their time for the next five days.
Looking to capitalize on his
burst of support in new polls,
Santorum made a play for tea
party backers lining up behind
Paul by arguing that the Texas
congressman is longer on prom-
ising sweeping change than en-
acting it. The guy has passed
one bill in 20 years. What makes
you think he can do any of these
things? Santorum said.
He added: We need someone
who has the bold, sharp contrast
not just to win the election but
govern the country, not some-
body who is just a little better.

nup efforts, council authorized an agree-
ment with the Luzerne/Schuylkill

FRESNO, Calif. A federal judge
blocked California fromenforcing its first-
in-the-nation mandate for cleaner, low-
carbon fuels on Thursday, saying the rules
favor biofuels produced in the state.
The lawsuit challenging the state regu-
lations, whichwere adoptedas part of Cal-
ifornias landmark 2006 global warming
law, was filedinfederal court last year by a
coalition that includes the National Petro-
chemical & Refiners Association and the
Consumer Energy Alliance.
Fresno-based U.S. District Court Judge
Lawrence ONeills written ruling Thurs-
day said the low-carbon fuel rules violated
the U.S. Constitutions commerce clause
by discriminating against crude oil and
biofuels producers located outside Cali-
fornia.
Out-of-state fuels producers hailed the
decision as a win for California drivers.
Todays decision ... struck down a mis-
guided policy that would have resulted in
even higher fuel costs for Californian con-
sumers while increasing the cost of busi-
ness throughout the state, Consumer En-
ergy Alliance Executive Vice President
Michael Whatley said.
The board plans to ask the judge to stay
the ruling, and appeal if necessary to the
San Francisco-based 9th U.S. Circuit
Court of Appeals, spokesman Dave Cleg-
ern said.
The rule is an evenhanded standard
that encourages the use of cleaner lowcar-
bon fuels by regulating fuel-providers in
California, Clegern said.

Cherry wants new trial
A city man sentenced on Dec. 22 on
a third-degree murder charge in the
May 2009 death of a 1-year-old girl has
asked a judge for a new trial.
Lamont Cherry, 37,
was convicted in
September of the
charge after a second
trial. The first trial,
held in January re-
sulted in acquittal on
a first-degree murder
charge -- and Cherry
escaping the possibil-
ity of the death penalty -- and a mis-
trial after juror misconduct. Cherry
was sentenced by Luzerne County
Judge Tina Polachek Gartley to 20 to
40 years in prison.
Cherry, through his attorney Wil-
liam Ruzzo, said in a one-page filing
Thursday he should be granted a new
trial because the evidence at his trial
did not support the verdict.
The verdict shocked the conscience
and was against the weight of evi-
dence, the filing said. If a judge were
to deny his request, the petition says
it would be an abuse of discretion.
Prosecutors alleged Cherry violently
shook Zalayia McCloe on May 29,
2009, while she was in his care inside
a Carlisle Street, Wilkes-Barre, resi-
dence where he lived with Smith.
Smith had gone out that day to sub-
mit job applications.
The child was flown to the Janet
Weis Childrens Hospital in Danville,
where she died two days later.

A Luzerne County judge scheduled a
hearing today on a motion filed by pros-
ecutors to modify conditions of bail for
attorney Robert Zanicky, charged
Wednesday with enticing two teen girls
to have sex.
Zanicky, 38, is a founding member
and officer with United Soccer Training
Academy, a charitable organization that
teaches professional-level soccer skills
to children in Northeastern Pennsylva-
nia. In 2009, the academy established
connections to teach soccer to children
in Ghana and Zambia in Africa, and Bra-
zil in South America.
At his arraignment before District
Judge James Tupper,
Zanicky said he has a
scheduled month-
long trip to Africa for
the soccer academy.
Prosecutors filed a
motion Thursday
seeking bail condi-
tions be imposed up-
on Zanicky. Judge William Amesbury
scheduled a hearing today at 1 p.m.
Zanicky, of Sand Hollow Drive, But-
ler Township, was charged with two
counts of corruption of minors after a
16-year-old girl and a 17-year-old girl al-
legedhe drove themtothe Wilkes-Barre
Lodge Motel on Kidder Street, Wilkes-
Barre, to have sex.
Zanicky denied the allegations.
Neither girl could recall the exact
date when they were allegedly taken to
the motel.
Kingston Township police said they
obtainedmotel registrationcards under
Zanickys name for Jan. 31to Feb. 1, and
Feb. 12 to Feb. 13, according to the crim-
inal complaint. The complaint that sup-
ports the charges against Zanicky states
he used a cellphone to communicate
with the two girls.
Prosecutors obtained a court order
for Zanickys cellphone records fromVe-
rizon Wireless. The application for the
court order was submitted and signed
by Senior Judge Chester Muroski on
April 5.
The application for Zanickys cell-
phone records is missing an affidavit of
probable cause to obtain the records.
Normal practice for cellphone re-
cords, also known as electronic data,
sought by prosecutors includes an affi-
davit signed under oath by the investi-
gating officer or detective. It is then re-
viewed by an assistant district attorney
before it is presented to a judge for re-
view and approval.
In Zanickys case, Assistant District
Attorney Jenny Roberts and Kingston
Township officer Charles Rauschkolb

SCRANTON A$2.15 million fund to
benefit children established by real es-
tate developer Robert Mericle will be
turned over to the Pennsylvania Com-
mission on Crime and Delinquency, a
federal judge ruled Thursday.
U.S. District Judge Edwin Kosik ap-
proved a motion by the U.S. Attorneys
Office and Mericles attorneys to release
the money to the com-
mission, which will
make all decisions on
its disbursement.
Mericle, of Jackson
Township, agreed to
establish the fund as
part of his guilty plea
in 2009 to charges re-
lated to the Luzerne
County juvenile jus-
tice scandal.
The money, which
has been held in an
escrow account of his
attorney, must be re-
leased within five
days of the order, Ko-
sik said.
The order comes
just less than two weeks after Mericle
agreed to pay $17.75 million to settle a
series of civil lawsuits filed against him
relating to the juvenile justice scandal.
That settlement, which is pending, is a
separate matter and does not affect the
welfare fund.
Kosiks order does not direct how the
welfare fund money is to be distributed,
leaving that decision up to the commis-
sion. Neither Mericle nor any members
of his familyor businesses will have a say
in the disbursement process, according
to the agreement.

Magisterial district judges are sworn in
FRED ADAMS/FOR THE TIMES LEADER
Five of the nine magisterial district judges who ran unopposed in the general election were sworn into
office Thursday, as well as two newcomers to the bench, at the Luzerne County Courthouse by County
President Judge Tom Burke. From left are Joseph Halesey, based in Hanover Township; James Tupper,
Kingston Township; Donald Whittaker, Nanticoke. Others sworn in were David Barilla, Swoyersville, and
Daniel ODonnell, Sugarloaf. Two newcomers, Rick Cronauer, who will serve in Wilkes-Barre, and James
Dixon, in Hazleton, defeated a total of nine candidates in the May primary and went on to win. They
were also sworn in Thursday. The judges serve a six-year term and earn approximately $78,000 a year.
WILKES-BARRE A man was ar-
raigned Thursday in Wilkes-Barre
Central Court on charges he robbed
a nail salon business on South Main
Street.
Donnell Jones Jr., 31, of Hazle
Avenue, Wilkes-Barre, was charged
with 10 counts of robbery, five
counts of theft and a single count of
illegal possession of a firearm. He
was jailed at the Luzerne County
Correctional Facility for lack of
$50,000 bail.
According to the criminal com-
plaint:
Jones entered
Queen Nails at 431
S. Main St. just be-
fore 7 p.m. Tuesday
armed with a silver
handgun. He de-
manded cellphones
from customers and
employees, and took money from
the cash register.
Police on Wednesday received a
break in the investigation via a sur-
veillance camera in an elevator at
the Valley View apartment building
on High Street. Video showed Jones
and a tenant in the building count-
ing money in the elevator after the
robbery, the complaint says.
Jones was found in the tenants
apartment on Wednesday.
Police said in the complaint that
Jones admitted to the armed rob-
bery. He claimed he obtained a sil-
ver handgun from a man known to
him as P and entered the nail sa-
lon demanding money and cell-
phones, the complaint says.
Jones allegedly told police he
robbed the business for money to
buy heroin for his girlfriend and the
tenant in the apartment building.
In an unrelated case, Jones is free
on $5,000 unsecured bail on two
firearm charges he is facing in Lu-
zerne County Court.
In that case, city police allegedly
found Jones in possession of a hand-
gun without a permit while investi-
gating a burglary at a Sullivan Street
apartment on May 24, according to
arrest and court records.
A preliminary hearing on the lat-
est incident is scheduled on Jan. 4.

The local chapter of UNICO donated
$7,500 to the Salvation Army in re-
sponse to the Giving Guide appeal.
We are so thankful for UNICO and
all our donors, Richwine said. We pro-
vide help to those in need all year
round.
Richwine said an appreciation lun-
cheon will be held in February, and at
that time she will announce the final tal-
ly on donations and the number of fam-
ilies and children helped. She said vol-
unteers will also be recognized then.
Anne Bramblett Barr, director of the
West Pittston Library, said more than
$1,000 has come in so far through the
Giving Guide campaign. The library, lo-
cated at 300 Exeter Ave., has several
needs after the flooding.
Barr said some of the money will be
used to refurbish the copy machine so
the library can again offer copy and fax
services to patrons.
We will also buy books, magazine
subscriptions and DVDs, Barr said.
We lost a projector, so some of the
money will help replace that.
Barr said the response to help the li-
brary, established in 1873, has been
overwhelming.
Its amazing to me how people have
reached out to help this community,
she said.
The First Presbyterian Church, Main
Street, Shickshinny, had received more
than $2,000 in Giving Guide donations
as of Christmas Day, said Pastor Jim
Parks. And five roasters were donated
for the kitchen to be used for making
meals.
We will look at paying off some bills
for heating, etc., and fixing the organ
motor, Parks said. It was destroyed so
we moved it upstairs out of the flood ar-
ea. We hope tohave it for use duringser-
vices soon.
Parks saidthe cost to repair the organ
is around $7,800. He said more dona-
tions are needed.
We will send cards to all who donat-
ed, he said. We appreciate all that
helped.
Elaine Lee, executive director at In-
terfaith Friends in Tunkhannock, said
monetary donations have been slow,
but toys were given to help at least 10
additional families at Christmas.
The toys were distributed to chil-
dren of families in need in Wyoming
County, Lee said. We also received a
lot of donated toiletries and those were
also distributed.
At the Plymouth Township Fire and

the fire company doesnt have the mon-
ey.
We understand that its holiday time

they think it will worsen.
Democrats were more likely
to view 2011 more favorably
than independents and Repub-
licans, according to the poll.
The poll was conducted Dec.
8-12 by GfK Roper Public Affairs
and Corporate Communica-
tions. It involved calls to 1,000
adults and has a margin of error
of plus or minus 4 percentage
points.
The upbeat note caught by
the poll could be considered es-
pecially positive in light of Cen-
sus Bureau data released Thurs-
day showing that more people
will be around to enjoy the new
year. The U.S. population is pro-
jected to increase by one person
every 17 seconds next year.
According to the Census Bu-
reau, when the ball drops in
Times Square, the U.S. popula-
tion is projected to be
312,780,968, an increase of 0.7
percent from New Years 2011.
In January 2012, one birth is
expected to occur every eight

Luzerne County judge this
week denied any post-trial
motions involving a $5.2
million verdict he handed
down last month.
Judge Lewis Wetzel de-
nied the motions of both the
Pittston Area School Dis-
trict and Dallas School
District and the Pennsylva-
nia School Districts Health
Trust. He recently ruled the
health trust should pay $2.8
million to Dallas and $2.3
million to the Pittston Area.
Wetzel said in an opinion
filed this week the total
owed to the districts is
around $7.2 million, when
interest and other fees are
added.
Shortly after the judges
ruling, attorneys for the
health trust filed motions
requesting the verdict be
reversed and returned in
favor of the health trust,
claiming the judge had
erred in several aspects of
his ruling, including that a
new trial should be held.
The health trust has also
previously voted to appeal
to a higher court.
Payment to the districts
would be stayed until any
appeals are complete.

WASHINGTON
Airport loose-change plan
E
ver wonder what happens to the
loose change that harried travelers
leave behind at airport checkpoints?
One lawmaker has his sights on the
unclaimed money, which added up to
$376,480.39 in the 2010 fiscal year.
Congress allows the Transportation
Security Administration to use the
unclaimed money to help fund its oper-
ations.
But legislation has been introduced
by Rep. Jeff Miller, R-Fla., to give the
money to the USO for its airport pro-
grams in support of the military.
The measure, which has yet to move
out of the Committee on Homeland
Security, could face a steep climb at a
time when lawmakers are searching for
every nickel and dime to reduce the
federal budget deficit.
KABUL, AFGHANISTAN
Afghan soldier kills troops
An Afghan army soldier shot and
killed two French NATO troops Thurs-
day, the French government said in
what was the latest attack by members
of Afghan security forces against their
coalition partners.
A statement from the office of French
President Nicolas Sarkozy said a sol-
dier in the Afghan National Army
opened fire on the two, who were serv-
ing with the 2nd regiment of the For-
eign Legion.
The deaths bring the December toll
for NATO troops killed in Afghanistan
to 25, while the years toll so far is 541.
Taliban spokesman Zabiullah Muja-
hid claimed responsibility for the at-
tack on the French in an email.
CAIRO
Forces attack NGO groups
Egyptian security forces stormed the
offices of 10 human rights and pro-
democracy groups on Thursday, in-
cluding several based in the U.S., ac-
cused by the countrys military rulers
of destabilizing security by fomenting
protests with the help of foreign fund-
ing.
The raids on 17 offices throughout
Egypt are part of the ruling generals
attempt to blame foreign hands for
the unrest that continues to roil Egypt
since the 18-day revolt that ousted
longtime leader Hosni Mubarak in
February, but that activists say failed to
topple his regime.
Among the offices ransacked were
the U.S.-headquartered National Demo-
cratic Institute, Freedom House and
the International Republican Institute,
which is observing Egypts staggered
parliamentary elections.

Officials: No moonshine
Virginia alcohol regulators say the
Discovery Channels Moonshiners
television show is misleading viewers
into thinking the state is tolerating
illegal booze manufacturing and that it
wouldnt have participated if they knew
how the episodes would turn out.
The series is about people who brew
their own moonshine and local author-
ities efforts to track them down.
Virginia Department of Alcoholic
Beverage Control spokeswoman Kath-
leen Shaw said in an email Thursday
that viewers have asked why the state
is allowing a crime to take place. Shaw
said the show is a dramatization, and
no illegal liquor is actually being pro-
duced.

HOMS, Syria The presence of
Arab League monitors in Syria has re-
energized the anti-government protest
movement, withtens of thousands turn-
ing out over the past three days in cities
and neighborhoods where the observ-
ers are expected to visit. The huge ral-
lies have been met by lethal gunfire
fromsecurity forces apparently worried
about multiple mass sit-ins modeled af-
ter Cairos Tahrir Square.
On Thursday, security forces opened
fire on tens of thousands protesting out-
side a mosque in a Damascus suburb
and killed at least four. The crowd had
gatheredat the mosque near toa munic-
ipal building where cars of the monitors
had been spotted outside.
Troops fired live ammunition and
tear gas todisperse large protests insev-
eral areas of the country, including cen-
tral Damascus, killing at least 26 people
nationwide, activists said. Akey activist
network, the Local Coordination Com-
mittees, said it has documented the
names of 130 people, including six chil-
dren, who died since the Arab League
monitors arrived in Syria Monday
night.
The ongoing violence, and new ques-
tions about the human rights record of
the head of the Arab League monitors,
are reinforcing the oppositions view
that Syrias limited cooperation with
the observers is nothing more than a
farce for President Bashar Assads re-
gime to buy time and forestall more in-
ternational condemnation and sanc-
tions.
Still, the presence of outside moni-
tors has invigorated frustrated protes-
ters and motivated them to take to the
streets again in large numbers after
months of demonstrations met by bul-
lets had dashed their hopes of peaceful
change.
We knowthe observers wont doany-
thingtohelpus, saidYahya Abdel-Bari,
an activist in the Damascus suburb of
Douma. But still, we want to show
them our numbers, to let them know
what is really happening here, he said.

began work Tuesday, are the first Syria
has allowed in during the nine-month
anti-government uprising.

CAIRO Trying to close the
Strait of Hormuz would bring
down a powerful military re-
sponse on Irans head from U.S.
forces in the Gulf and turn Teh-
rans fewremaining international
allies against it.
That Iran is making such dire
threats at all illustrates its alarm
over new sanctions planned by
the U.S. that will target oil ex-
ports the most vital source of
revenue for its economy. Irans
leaders shrugged off years of past
sanctions by the U.S. and United
Nations, mock-
ing them as in-
effective. But if
it cannot sell its
oil, its already-
suffering econ-
omywill besent
into a tailspin.
It would be
very, very diffi-
cult for Iran
even to impede
traffic for a sig-
nificant period
of time, said
Jonathan Rue, a
senior research
analyst at the
Washington-
based Institute for the Study of
War. They dont have the ability
to effectively block the strait.
What the Iranians can do, Rue
and other analysts say, is harass
traffic through the Gulf any-
thing from stopping tankers to
outright attacks. The goal would
betopanicmarkets, driveupship-
ping insurance rates and spark a
rise in world oil prices enough to
pressuretheU.S. tobackdownon
sanctions.
The strait would seemto be an
easy target, a bottleneck only
about 30 miles across at its nar-
rowest point between Iran and
Oman.
Tankers carrying one-sixth of
the worlds oil supply pass
through it. It wouldnt be a cake-
walk for U.S. and other forces to
push back an Iranian attempt to
close the strait, Rue said. But in
theend, their capabilitiesarenot
great and ours overwhelmingly
outmatch theirs.
Hormuz is inthe territorial wa-
ters of Iran and Oman, but it is
consideredaninternational strait
wherefreepassageis guaranteed,
meaningthat under international
law, closing it by any nation
would be considered an act of
war.

CHICAGO Chicago attorney Col-
leen Gorman has a holiday ritual that
doesnt involve buying presents or
counting down to midnight: She goes
online looking for new hangover reme-
dies.
The 28-year-olds fianc tells her she
should probably just drink less.
Experts say thats good advice for
everyone.
In fact, the only way to prevent a
hangover is to not get drunk. But there
are strategies to soften the blow.
Experts say not drinking on an emp-
ty stomach tops the list because food
helps absorb alcohol and delay toxic
effects on the body.
Drinking plenty of water before, dur-
ing and after also helps because alcohol
can dehydrate the body.
But researchers note that preventing
hangovers is a challenge because no
ones pinpointed a cause.

WILKES-BARRE A man
and woman charged with ne-
glecting and sexually abusing a
13-year-old boy over several
years inside their Plymouth
home will stand trial on related
charges next year.
Robert Caravella, 52, and Car-
ol Ann Hann, 44, appeared in
Luzerne County court Thurs-
day.
Their attorney, Andrew Kat-
sock, requested a trial that will
take a number of days to com-
plete as prosecutors say there is
a lengthy list of witnesses to be
called to testify.
The boy alleged at an August
preliminary hearing that Cara-
vella introduced him to pornog-
raphy when the boy was 8 years
old, andshortly thereafter Hann
began forcing him to perform
lewd sex acts on her.
If the boy did not perform
well, he stated, Caravella would
coach him.
The two face charges of rape,
child endangerment and cor-
ruption of minors. They are
jailed at the county prison for
lack of $100,000 bail each.
Investigators allege they
found the couples home on
Gould Street in Plymouth in de-
plorable condition with garbage
covering the floors and a strong
odor of urine when the boy was
removed in August 2010.
The boy has been residing
with his relatives. Officer Ryan
Williams testified he assisted a
child caseworker with Children
and Youth Services during a vis-
it at the home in August 2010.
When Williams discovered
the interior of the house in dis-
array, he took the boy into pro-
tective custody.
The teen was taken to the Ply-
mouthPolice Station, where the
boy was advised to shower.
The boy said he was scared
while at the station because he
did not knowhowto bathe him-
self.

Police said Daryl Minor, 20, of Coal Street, lost control of the car he was driving Thursday afternoon and crashed, com-
ing to rest on the divider wall in the wrong lane on South Pennsylvania Avenue near the intersection with Dana Street.
Police said Minor fled the scene and police later apprehended him. He faces charges of possession of suspected cocaine
and marijuana and several traffic violations, police said.
ALLENTOWN Officials
trying to identify a homicide
victim whose torso was found
in garbage bags in the Pocono
region said Thursday the man
has a chest scar indicating sur-
gery.
Investigators conducting a
second autopsy on the man
Thursday also say he could
have been as young as 25.
Police say a motorist in the
Pocono Mountains spotted the
black bags Monday afternoon
on Route 191 in Paradise Town-
ship.
Monroe County Coroner Bob
Allen has ruled the death a
homicide.
Police continue to search for
other body parts.
Allen had estimated previous-
ly that the man was 45 to 60
years old.
He said the victim had likely
been dead between two weeks
and two months.

NEW YORK It was a good
year in the ratings for cable news
networks. Or a rough one. It de-
pends on your perspective.
Fox News Channel continued
its dominance, with an average
viewership that exceeded CNN
and MSNBC combined in prime
time and for the entire day, the
Nielsen ratings company said
Wednesday. Fox typically had
1.87 million viewers in prime
time this year. The top 13 pro-
grams in cable news all aired on
Fox.
Yet Fox was alone among the
cable news networks in losing
viewers down 8 percent in
prime time and 5 percent for the
full day, Nielsen said. The 2010
midtermelectionyear was partic-
ularly engaging for Republicans,
who make up a big part of Foxs
audience.
CNN was up 17 percent in
prime-time viewership with a re-
vamped lineup that includes a
double dose of Anderson Cooper
and Piers Morgan replacing Lar-
ry King. CNNis third behind Fox
and MSNBC in prime time and
for the day as a whole, but this
year it came back to eclipse
MSNBC for second each day
among the key news demograph-
ic of viewers aged 25 to 54.
CNNs rivals acknowledge its
gains but are quick to point out
that last year represented CNNs
worst year ever in the ratings.
MSNBC can take pride in sur-
vivingthe exit of its most popular
prime time personality, Keith Ol-
bermann, who defected to Cur-
rent. The network is up 2 percent
over last year in its prime-time
average, Nielsen said.
However, MSNBC is down 11
percent for the 8 p.m. time slot,
which Olbermann occupied.
Along with the continued pop-
ularity of Rachel Maddow at 9
p.m., MSNBC is showing rating
gains at 10 p.m. because it re-
placed the Olbermann rerun that
used to air at that time with an
original show, currently hosted
by Lawrence ODonnell.
HLN, the former CNN Head-
line News, is up 20 percent over
last year, with its popular blanket
coverage of Casey Anthonys trial
a big factor.

HARRISBURG Planned
special elections next year may
leave some Pennsylvanians won-
dering who speaks for them in
the state House of Representa-
tives.
The elections will decide who
should replace six state repre-
sentatives who are stepping
down early. House officials said
Thursday that the new lawmak-
ers will be picked by voters in
districts redrawn under the 2012
redistricting plan not the vot-
ers who elected the incumbents
just last year.
The constitutionally required
plan, which was approved by a
special panel earlier this month
and awaits ratification by the
state Supreme Court, would re-
shuffle House and Senate dis-
tricts to reflect population shifts
based on the 2010 census.
Once approved by the states
highest court perhaps as early
as January, but later if appeals
are filed the maps will be the
basis for not only the special
House elections but for primary
and general elections for the
next decade.
The special elections are
bound to produce border con-
flicts between the districts of the
new lawmakers and the current
districts of most House mem-
bers, which remain in place
through much of next year. But
House officials say they do not
anticipate major problems.
For two of the departing legis-
lators, it means the two-year
terms they won in one part of the
state will be completed by peo-
ple elected in another region.
The district of Rep. Chelsa
Wagner, a Democrat who will
take over as Allegheny County
controller next month, will be
moved across the state to Lehigh
County. The Philadelphia dis-
trict of GOP Rep. Dennis
OBrien, who was elected to City
Council, is being shifted to York
County.
Less radical changes are in
store for the districts of Rep. Ke-
nyatta Johnson, D-Philadelphia,
who was elected to City Council;
Rep. Jewell Williams, D-Philadel-
phia, elected as sheriff; Rep. Josh
Shapiro, a Democrat elected as a
Montgomery County commis-
sioner; and GOP Rep. Douglas
Reichley, elected as Lehigh
County judge.
House officials say they are fol-
lowing a quirky provision in the
state constitution that says the
maps approved by the Supreme
Court carry the force of law.
and shall be used thereafter
in elections to the General As-
sembly until the next redistrict-
ing.
Clancy Myer, the House parlia-
mentarian, was among several
legislative staffers who said he
thinks it makes more sense to
hold the special elections in the
current districts, since the win-
ners terms are set to expire at
the end of November.
The constitution doesnt
agree with us, he said. We have
to go with the hand weve been
dealt.
So far, special elections are not
an issue in the Senate, since no
senators are expected to leave
before the end of next year.
However, four senators are
planning to leave when their
terms expire in 2012. Republi-
cans Jane Earll of Erie County,
Jeffrey Piccola of Dauphin Coun-
ty and Mary Jo White of Venango
County are retiring. Democratic
Sen. Jim Brewster will be forced
out because the redistricting
panel moved his southwestern
Pennsylvania district to the
northeast.
House members who have
said they are not seeking re-elec-
tion next year include Republi-
cans Scott Boyd of Lancaster
County, Tom Creighton of Lan-
caster County, John Evans of
Erie County, Mario Scavello of
Monroe County and Curt
Schroder of Chester County.
Also in that category are Dem-
ocrats Ron Buxton of Dauphin
County, Jennifer Mann of Lehigh
County and Edward Staback of
Lackawanna County.

The outgoing Luzerne County Commissioners
chairwoman declined an invitation to help host the
Jan. 2 swearing-in ceremony for the members of the
new county council.
Some advice for council:
Make cuts at courthouse
W
ith a new year starting soon, and our
old form of government leaving Lu-
zerne County and home rule coming
in, its time for the people at the cour-
thouse to get realistic and live within a
budget.
In the newspaper recently it was men-
tioned that the county might raise proper-
ty taxes again. I thought reassessment was
supposed to cover that when taxes dou-
bled and tripled for some property owners.
Here are some ideas for the incoming
county council members:
Lay off the 150 county employees. Stop
the automatic 3 and 5 percent raises and
bonuses for workers. Other people have
cut back; why not the courthouse?
Also, renegotiate all contracts with the
unions. No more paid sick days, personal
days and buy-back programs. If you dont
use them, you lose them. The employees
already get state and federal holidays. Why
personal days also?
Its time to live in the real world. No
more of those perks at our expense.
Lets start a new year with a new atti-
tude at the courthouse.

Writer warns of dangers
of using illegal drugs
H
ave you ever wondered how illicit
drugs can affect our lives? Many peo-
ple dont realize what drugs can do to
them, mentally and physically.
Some of the most popular drugs are
marijuana, heroin and cocaine. These
drugs can damage your body severely. For
example, smoking marijuana can cause
serious risks such as structural and func-
tional deficits of the brain, weakened ver-
bal and communication skills and short-
ened attention span. It also can be hazard-
ous to your lungs.
When people take these dangerous
drugs, they only think that they can lessen
their problems, but they are wrong. They
are only making it worse for themselves,
creating problems in their later life.

THE TIMES LEADER www.timesleader.com FRIDAY, DECEMBER 30, 2011 PAGE 11A
ON BEHALF of The Lands
at Hillside Farms family of
staff and volunteers, I wish
you a happy and blessed
new year.
The mission of our non-
profit organization is to
teach healthy and sustainable life choices.
Yes, we are located on a beautiful historic
farm. But our mission reaches beyond
that. We feel it is imperative that humanity
begin to consider what each of us must do
to ensure that citizens living 500 years
from now have the same opportunities and
resources that we enjoy.
It might seem odd to you, but there
really is no plan we are aware of for how
we should conduct ourselves in order to
maximize the quality of life for each of us
while making sure that we do not destroy
the likelihood our grandchildren might be
able to do the same. I am suggesting that
we should consider how we live our lives
and practice life choices that consider our
fellow citizens as well as those who will
inhabit Earth in centuries to come.
The purpose of The Lands is to help
figure this all out. We exist in order to
define, exemplify and teach as many sen-
sible, sustainable life choices as we can
determine. It is our belief that we have
forgotten many wonderful ways of life.
And we believe that humanity will contin-
ue to discover options to enhance our
lives.
Wouldnt it be great if each of us re-
viewed our lives and began our new year
resolving to be better citizens? We are all
in this boat together. So shouldnt we all
be helping out? With the negative news
that bombards us daily, wouldnt it be
great to know that all 7 billion of us were
working together to make the world a
better place for ourselves and for post-
erity?
It will never happen unless we begin!
I dream of a day when there is a book
that teaches each of us what we might do
to have happier, healthier, more peaceful
and satisfying lives while acting as respon-
sible citizens with a shared sustainable
plan. It is likely to be a pretty thick book,
of course.
So what might we resolve to do now?
It all starts with caring for ourselves.
Only then can we work at being better
world citizens. Lets start by taking care of
our bodies, minds and spirits. We hear a
lot about the decline in the average Amer-
icans health. Obesity levels are climbing;
the qualities of our diets are declining. We
are exercising less, spending more time in
cars and away from our families, and life is
just too complex and stressful!
At Hillside, we offer milk, ice cream,
butter, meats and other foods that are
grown locally by your neighbors using
techniques that lead to products that are
better for you. When you visit, you can
take a walk with your family and spend
time with the people and livestock that are
committed to giving you their best. We
care!
Our animals are raised the old-fashioned
way and the foods they provide you with
reflect that. Our staff works hard to main-
tain a facility that is owned and operated
as a nonprofit organization dedicated to
you. By the way, we all own this 412-acre
classroom without walls. It is ours.
We recently created Hillside Mercantile.
If you have visited recently, you might
have noticed that we have moved a 19th
century barn to a site next to our dairy
store. Our mercantile store now occupies
part of our dairy store, but will soon move
to this grand old barn. We sell products
that fit our mission: Nearly all items are
American-made and often Pennsylvania-
made.
In the next few years, we hope to be able
to feed you prepared foods when you visit.
We also want to get you on the land more
by expanding our already extensive educa-
tional programs. And there is so much
more to come.
So let us start our new year by resolving
to feed our bodies better, commit to exer-
cise more, reserve more time for our fam-
ilies, relax our minds, give back to our
community as volunteers and look beyond
ourselves and see what each of us might
do to ensure that what we enjoy now
might be available to those who walk this
earth in the future.

COMMENTARY
D O U G A Y E R S
I am suggesting that we should consider
how we live our lives and practice life
choices that consider our fellow
citizens as well as those who will inhabit
Earth in centuries to come.
T
HE GENESIS AND
the goals of the politi-
cal unrest inRussiaare
both unclear, but the
fact and the outcome of it mat-
ters to the United States.
Demonstrators gathered in
the streets of Moscow in the
thousands for some weeks now,
most recently on Saturday in
advance of the holiday season
that lasts until Orthodox
Christmas, Jan. 7. Theprincipal
target of thedemonstrations ap-
pears to be Prime Minister Vla-
dimir V. Putin, based on the de-
cisionannouncedinSeptember
that he and current president
Dmitry Medvedev planned to
switch offices in the upcoming
March 4 presidential elections.
What is not clear is whether
the basis of the protesters com-
plaints is the arrogance implied
by the rotation, the actions of
Putin himself as president for
two terms, eight years, already,
or the heavy-handed dom-
inance of the two and their par-
ty, United Russia, in power for
12 years.
The basic problem for Putin
and Medvedev might be that
the Russians are tired of them
personally, as much as what
they have done or not done.
The vote in the Dec. 4 parlia-
mentary elections gave United
Russia the most votes at 49 per-
cent but many fewer than the
last time around, in 2007.
The matter is complicated
for the United States. Russia is
one of four parties, including
the European Union, the Unit-
ed Nations and the United
States, dealing with the Middle
East peace process. Russia is
one of the six-party group deal-
ing with North Korea. It is an
important party in any action
dealingwithIran, Syriaandoth-
er sensitive areas.
Finally, it is now one of the
countries facing off with the
United States in the 30 million
square mile Arctic region. The
U.S.-Russia relationship is im-
portant and becomes even
moreimportant as timegoes by.

OTHER OPINION: RUSSIAN UNREST
Putins power play
has global impact
O
N THE FINAL week-
day of 2011, we weigh
in on whats new,
whats old and whats
next.
NEWBAN: Smokers wont
have even a Virginia Slims
chance of landing a job with the
Geisinger Health System as of
Feb. 1. The Danville-based
health care provider announced
a newhiring policy that bars ap-
plicants who test positive for to-
bacco use. Blue Cross of North-
eastern Pennsylvania and many
other medical-related organiza-
tions already have adopted no-
nicotine policies.
Lung cancer, youve come a
long way, baby. But it looks as
thoughyourenearingtheendof
the road.
NEWTAX: Exeters council
might start the new year by im-
posing a $2,500 tax on certain
businesses. Under a proposal to
be discussed at Tuesdays coun-
cil meeting, the borough would
collect the flat fee from outfits
grossing more than $500,000
per year.
Hmm, another Luzerne
County municipality finding it-
self short on revenue and on op-
tions. At times like these, we
cant helpbut makeanother plea
for more local officials to further
explore the benefits of regional-
ization.
Then again, maybe you cant
teach an old dog new tricks.
NEW WAGERS: An opin-
ion by the U.S. Department of
Justice earlier this month could
set the stage for states to offer
online gambling. Its uncertainif
Pennsylvania will pounce at the
chance.
But if theres a nickel to be
made at it, we think its a good
bet theKeystoneStatewill goall
in.
OLDHABITS: Even before
its first official meeting Jan. 2,
the inaugural Luzerne County
Council displayedthekindof ug-
liness we could do without.
Councilman-elect Stephen A.
Urban, who sat in the audience
rather than with the transition
team, criticizedthe groups lead-
er for the job he has done. That
raised the ire of a third soon-to-
be councilman, who walked out
of the session.
Gentlemen: Turn a new leaf.
OLDTHINKING: The Riv-
er Street Corridor Project, as
currently configured, allows no
room along the Wilkes-Barre
thoroughfare for bicycle lanes.
Lets hope before construc-
tion begins in 2014 that some-
one corrects this flaw. Biking in
the city isnt a newfangled idea,
or a superfluous one.
WHATS NEXT? Your in-
volvement in these matters or
others important to you is
what can make the difference.
Vowthat in 2012 you will get in-
volved: speakup, write letters to
the editor, attend meetings and
vote. Better yet, run for office.
Whats next, as always, is
largely up to you.
OUR OPINION: LOOKING AHEAD
Let 2012 be year
you get involved

been in place since the county was es-
tablished 225 years ago.
Its now time for us to stop our
squabbling and to move ahead with
the new council to support them as
best as we can to make it all happen,
said Cooney.
Cooney, who plans to savor retire-
ment, thanked county judges for ap-
pointinghimtotheseat twoyears ago
after former county commissioner
GregSkrepenakwas implicatedinthe
federal corruption probe.
He said fellow commissioners Ste-
phen A. Urban and Maryanne Petrilla
are very wise and honest people
who shepherded the county through
the corruption scandal and a record
flood.
Cooney also praised county non-
union workers, saying they usually
work more than 40 hours a week and
are frequently maligned and under
appreciated.
Petrilla said she was proud of the
commissioners success ending an
atrocious $58 million lease of a Pitt-
stonTownshipjuveniledetentioncen-
ter and finding reuse for a downtown
Hazleton former bank building that
hadbeenbought at anexcessive price
by the previous administration.
She also praised the countys man-
agement team, saying these workers
were selected for their education and
ability, not because of politics or rela-
tion.
It was myhonor tobehere. Ill nev-
er forget it. Ill never forget all of you. I
thankyouvery, very much, andI wish
council nothing but the best, Petrilla
said in a shaky voice.
Facing several council members-
elect in the audience, Petrilla said,
Imconfident youll doagreat joband
continue on with the good govern-
ment because thats what the people
of this county deserve.
Private sector beckoning
Petrilla said after the meeting that
she has been interviewing for posi-
tions in the private sector and has no
plans to return to the public sector.
She said persistent rumors that she
would run for state representative or
line up a county transportation au-
thority job are untrue.
Urban, who was elected to the new
council, made a lengthy closing state-
ment, his voice rising.
He directed some of his comments
to one of his critics, county Council-
man-elect Edward Brominski, who
was sitting in the audience. Urban ac-
cused Brominski of defaming him,
hintingthat he maybe takinglegal ac-
tion.
Urban said he had the courage to
support a countywide reassessment
because it was desperately needed,
andhe thankedformer commissioner
TomMakowski for providing the sec-
ond vote. Urban criticized Skrepenak
and former commissioner Todd Von-
derheid for adding $1 million to the
cost of reassessment by delaying it a
year, and he praised Petrilla for sup-
portingitsimplementationamidcom-
plaints from hundreds of residents at
meetings.
Urban also said hes proud of the
computerization of property assess-
ment records, the countys purchase
of watershed land around drinking
water sources, increased allocations
to public libraries, the Wyoming Val-
ley Levee-raising project, budget re-
ductions and other projects.
He said he resisted a personal re-
quest fromformer Gov. Ed Rendell to
sell the countys share of the Triple-A
baseball franchise for $1 million be-
cause he believes the county is entit-
ledtohalf of the$18millionappraised
value.
Urban also stressed that he fought
corruptionandhasreportedwrongdo-
ing to the FBI.
I thank the public for allowing me
to serve as commissioner the last 12
years. I think there have been a lot of
accomplishments, Urban said.
Brominski said after the meeting:
The citizens spoke when they voted
thecharterin. Theygavetheirreferen-
dumon commissioners.
Help with transition
Councilman-elect Rick Morelli, a
home rule charter drafter, publicly
thankedcommissioners, sayinghebe-
lieves the government structure was
the problem, not the people running
county government. He said the out-
going commissioners helpedwiththe
transition and made difficult deci-
sions during one of the countys
toughest times.
County Chief Clerk/Manager
Doug Pape will depart with commis-
sioners, saying he has applied for sev-
eral positions inthe private sector. He
saidhestartedthinkingabout acareer
changeafter homerulewas approved.
Somehomeruletransitioncommit-
tee members had urged Pape to con-
sider serving as interim home rule
manager, but Pape said he did not
want to make the commitment be-
cause he would have to leave if he se-
cures another position.
Hesaidhealsodidnot lookforward
to implementing layoffs as he had
done in the past. He said hes confi-
dent the outgoing commissioners left
the county in better shape.
Salaries for thethreecommissioner
executiveassistants werenot factored
into the budget, commissioners said.
Urbans assistant, Colette Check, was
observed heading into an interview
for the newcouncil clerk position ear-
lier this week.
Petrilla and Urban approved a
$121.7 million 2012 budget Thursday
that keeps taxes the same and would
require up to150 layoffs.
Countyofficials saidtheyarenot re-
leasing any proposed layoff lists be-
cause staffing and reductions will be
determined by the newmanager.
Community Development Execu-
tive Assistant Kristen Martinelli was
furloughed Thursday because of fed-
eral funding cuts to that office not
the county budget.
2012budget changes
The new council will have 45 days
to amend the budget, with a tax in-
creaseastheonlyapparent solutionto
avoid cuts.
The budget reduces spending in
countycourtbranchesby$4.7million.
Urban said he believes the new
council should implement further
cuts countywide and not succumb to
pleas for more funding. He accused
judges of failingtoreduce spendingin
court branches.
President Judge Thomas Burke is-
sued the following statement in re-
sponse: Fromthevantagepoint of the
court, budget matters continue to be
reviewed. We understand the county
is ina verydifficult situationfinancial-
ly and remain hopeful that court bud-
get matters can be resolved with the
newadministration.
FINAL
Continued from1A
FRED ADAMS/FOR THE TIMES LEADER
It was my honor to be here. Ill never forget it , Luzerne County Commissioner Maryanne Petrilla told those
in attendance Thursday at the final meeting of the board.
The 2012 Luzerne County budget may
be viewed on the county website,
www.luzernecounty.org.
VI EW BUDGET
The new Luzerne County Council will
hold a public swearing-in ceremony at
10 a.m. Monday in the Courthouse
Rotunda in Wilkes-Barre.
The new council will hold its first
meeting at 11:30 a.m. in the commis-
sioners meeting room to choose the
chairperson and other officers and
appoint an interim or permanent
manager.
WHAT S NEXT
Luzerne County Commission-
er Stephen A. Urban hinted
Thursday that he may not be
serving on the new home rule
county council.
While discussing the 2012
county budget during the last
commissioner meeting, Urban
said he wont vote to give the
courts more funding if I get
sworn in as a council member.
Urban also said he would not
vote to reopen the county bud-
get.
He declined to elaborate after
the meeting or say whether he
intends to serve on council.
Urban, a Democrat, was the
second highest vote-getter in
November, securing one of six
four-year terms.
The remaining five winners
received two-year terms.
Urbans son, Stephen J. Urban,
also won a four-year term.
Talk that the commissioner
wont fill the council seat has
been buzzing through the cour-
thouse in recent days, though
Urban has said he did not make
a decision.
The new council will be
sworn in at 10 a.m. Jan. 2 in the
courthouse rotunda, and Urbans
name is listed on the ceremony
program.
Urban has also filled out pa-
perwork required for council
members to serve, and he at-
tended Thursday nights home
rule transition meeting.
He has been critical of the
switch to home rule govern-
ment but promised during his
council campaign to work to
make the new system success-
ful.
According to the home rule
charter, the council must fill a
vacant council seat within 60
days.
If council fails to act, county
judges must fill the seat by ma-
jority vote within 30 days.
The person chosen to fill a
seat must be from the same po-
litical party as the person elect-
ed to the seat.
If a council vacancy is de-
clared during the first 18
months of a term, the appointee
serves only until the voters se-
lect a replacement in the next
scheduled municipal primary or
municipal general election.
That charter spells out more
details about the timing of the
election.
Urban may pass on county council seat

The Luzerne County Council-elect has reached a
closed-door majority consensus on the new county in-
terim manager who will be appointed Monday, and it
has to be former county budget/finance
chief TomPribula because he was the on-
ly person interviewed for the temporary
post.
PribulahadresignedinDecember 2010
after clashes with the outgoing adminis-
tration over budgeting philosophies after
more than two years as budget finance
chief.
The council members-elect agreed during Thurs-
days home rule transition meeting to provide applica-
tions for division head posts and temporary positions
to the chosen interim manager as soon as that person
signs a letter of intent.
Councilman-elect Jim Bobeck said he had not re-
ceived a letter of intent as of Thursday night, but one
was in the works.
The manager selects divisionheads, thoughtheyare
subject to council confirmation.
Councilman-elect Stephen A. Urban, a county com-
missioner, asked if the interim manager will select in-
terim or permanent division heads.
Bobeck, the transition
committee chairman, said
the interim manager will
have all the powers of the
permanent manager, though
the permanent manager will
have the right to make staff-
ing changes.
Council must confirm all
division head appointments.
A majority of the council-
elect has also settled on the
applicant who will likely be
offered the permanent man-
ager position, Bobeck said. A
final offer will hinge on the
completion of background
checks and compensation
negotiations, he said.
After nearly an hour of debate, the home rule transi-
tion committee decided the names of finalists for the
county manager position wont be publicly released.
Several committee members voted in support of the
name release: EdwardBrominski, Elaine MaddonCur-
ry, Tim McGinley and Rick Morelli.
Morelli saidthe names shouldbe releasedtoprovide
transparency and show the public the credentials of
the finalists. The county will pay about $5,000 intravel
expenses related to the five interviews.
The transition committee has no more scheduled
meetings andwill disbandwhenthe newcouncil mem-
bers are sworn in on Monday.
Several home rule charter drafters who serve on the
committeecommentedontheprogress madesincethe
Government Study Commission convened in June
2009.
McGinley and Bobeck asked the public to give the
newcouncil time to work through issues with the con-
version to home rule, though they stressed that feed-
back positive or negative is encouraged.

vate practice in an area of law
she handled when she first be-
came an attorney in the late
1980s, which includes personal
injury cases.
This is the best job Ive ever
had, Musto Carroll said of her
time in the District Attorneys
Office. I am grateful for the op-
portunity to have served (the
community).
Musto Carroll was narrowly
unseated in the November gen-
eral election by Stefanie Salavan-
tis, 29, a Republican.
Salavantis secured 31,776
votes, while Musto Carroll gar-
nered 30,811 votes.
Musto Carrolls last day is to-
day, when Salavantis is sworn in-
to office.
Shell miss the fast-paced
work environment, making
quick decisions every day and
knowing she made a difference
in the lives of Luzerne County
residents.
Her experience, she knows,
helped her throughout the years
and her work with five prior DAs
also helped her make decisions
because she could use their ex-
periences in helping her.
I will miss the people, the re-
lationships Ive made over 23
years, the interaction with the
ADAs and detectives fighting
the battle against crime, she
said. I would have done this job
for as long as the voters would
have had me.
What she wont miss is the
calls in the middle of the night
and foregoing meals with her
family.
You couldnt plan too far in
advance (for vacations and other
events), Musto Carroll said.
Now, as her administration
comes to an end, Musto Carroll
says she will be sad to leave the
office, but that she will not dwell
on the past.
You go with what youve got
and move forward, Musto Car-
roll said an old DA told her
once.
Musto Carroll says she hopes
Salavantis continues work she
began after taking office four
years ago, including the Child
Advocacy Center.
The advocacy center was
opened in August 2010 in
Wilkes-Barre with the expecta-
tion of providing a friendly, safe
and non-threatening place
where children could tell their
stories if they have been victims
of sexual or physical abuse.
She also hopes Salavantis ad-
ministration continues with
youth aid panels, which aim to
keep juvenile offenders out of
court but still held accountable
for their actions, and the Too
Smart for Trouble program she
presented to 10,000 children in
local school districts about laws
and penalties for breaking them.
Musto Carroll wishes she
were able to follow through with
prosecuting the Hugo Selenski
case.
She had served as the lead
prosecutor on the case for the
past four years. Selenski, 38, is
facing the death penalty if he is
convicted in the deaths of Tam-
my Fassett, 37, and Michael Ker-
kowski, 37 in May 2002.
The trial, delayed a number of
times throughout the years, had
been scheduled to begin in No-
vember, but was again continued
to next spring.
Musto Carroll said up next for
her is a private practice in Pitt-
ston, where shell concentrate
on personal injury, divorce and
general litigation.
She had handled those types
of cases for seven years before
entering the DAs office, and for
four years as a part-time assist-
ant DA while maintaining a pri-
vate practice.
As for future plans to run for
public office, Musto Carroll said
she doesnt have an answer right
now.
Who knows what the future
has in store, she said.

WILKES-BARRE Meyers did
what it needed to do defensively
Thursday night. The Mohawks
held undefeated Abington
Heights to its lowest point total
of the season.
But the Comets proved they
could play defense as well, as
they defeated host Meyers 38-30
in the cham-
pionship of the
Meyers Christ-
mas Tourna-
ment.
Defensively, you hold a team
like Abington in the 30s, you
should have a pretty good chance
of winning the game, Meyers
coach Pat Toole said.
Meyers (6-2) did have a solid
chance of winning the game until
Abingtons standout sophomore
J.C. Show found his touch in the
second half. Show was just 2-of-8
fromthe field in the first half, but
hit 5-of-7 attempts from the field
in the final two quarters. He fin-
ished with 21 points and was

DALLAS Penn State defen-

A child sex
abuse scandal
has engulfed
Penn State,
leading to the
departures of
university pres-
ident Graham
Spanier, vice
president Gary Schultz, athletic
director Tim Curley and Hall of
Fame coach Joe Paterno.
The scandal has overshadowed
the Nittany Lions (9-3), who will
play Houston (12-1) in the Ticket-
City Bowl on Jan. 2 at Cotton
Bowl Stadium.
Now Penn State is making its
first bowl appearance without Pa-
terno on the staff since it tied
SMU 13-13 in the 1948 Cotton
Bowl.
Its definitely a little weird not
having Joe here, Latimore said.

Van Rose, a reporter with The
Times Leader since 1982 who was
best knownfor hissportscoverage,
died Thursday following a brief ill-
ness. He was 68.
During his career, Rose wrote
columns and reported on a variety
of subjects, from the Scranton/
Wilkes-Barre Red Barons and Yan-
kees to country
music, from
Nanticoke City
Council meet-
ings to harness
racing, from
concerts to girls
volleyball and
basketball
games.
Fellow journalists and coaches
who met Rose on the sports beat
described him as a thorough,
knowledgeable reporter who al-
ways treated people respectfully.
He retired from The Times
Leader earlier this year, but contin-
ued as an enthusiastic correspond-
ent, reporting and writing about
girls high school volleyball and
basketball.
Joe Butkiewicz, executive editor
at The Times Leader, worked with
Rose for nearly 30 years.
He was a dedicatedandpersist-
ent reporter, he said. He really
cared about getting the story for
our readers. He was also a true
character, and anyone who ever
met Van Rose will never forget
him.
Coaches weigh in
Several coaches expressed
shock and sadness when told of
Roses unexpected death.
He was going to cover our
championship game , said Pitt-
ston Area girls basketball Coach
Kathy Healey. We will miss him;
girls basketball will miss him. This
season wont be the same without
him.

PITTSTON Playing at home on Thurs-
day night, PittstonArea wantedtodoevery-
thing possible to win the Holiday Tourna-
ment final in front of all its fans, both in at-
tendance in the gym and otherwise.
With a 71-48 defeat of Holy Redeemer to
capture the Holiday Tournament cham-
pionship, the Patriots made sure that all
those watching received just that.
I told the girls in the locker room before
we came out that we would dedicate this
game to Van Rose, said Pittston Area head
coach Kathy Healey. Rose, a reporter with
The Times Leader since 1982, passed away
Thursday following a brief illness. He was
often a fixture on the sidelines of girls bas-
ketball games.
He was a friend of ours here for many
years, said Healey.
Withthe way Pittstonrolledpast the Roy-
als, the dedication had to have been appre-
ciated.
The Patriots came out witha forceful full-
court defensive pressure that forced Holy
Redeemer into some early miscues that
Pittston Area was able to take advantage of.

tion and capped another Royal turnover

ond-half deficit anduseda pair of
touchdown passes by E.J. Manu-
el and two field goals from Dust-
in Hopkins to slip past Notre
Dame 18-14 in the Champs
Sports Bowl on Thursday night.
The victory was FSUs fourth
straight bowl win. FSU receiver
Rashad Greene, who caught one
of Manuels touchdown passes,
was named the games MVP.
The No. 25 Seminoles started
four freshmen on their offensive
line and gave up five sacks, but
FSUs defense picked off Notre
Dame quarterbacks Tommy
Rees and Andrew Hendrix three
times and also piled up four
sacks of its own.
Notre Dame shuffled between
Rees and Hendrix throughout
the game, but both struggled to
get the Irishpoints inside the red
zone.

named the tournament MVP.
Hes our leader, Abington
coach Ken Bianchi said of Show.
Hes only a sophomore, but hes
like a sophomore in college in
basketball knowledge with his fa-
ther (Baptist Bibles Mike Show)
being a college coach.
Show was joined on the all-
tournament team by teammates
Pat Calvey and John Vassil,
Meyers Rasheed Moore, Cough-
lins Ian Jeremiah and Nanti-
cokes Joe Yudichak. Meyers
Ryan Krawczeniuk was present-
ed with the sportsmanship
award.
Meyers problems were two-
fold against Abington (9-0).
First, the Comets used a
match-up zone defense, some-
thing the Mohawks rarely see in
the Wyoming Valley Conference.
The result was clogging up op-
portunities inside for the Mo-
hawks, especially Moore.
We went to our bread and but-
ter, the match-up, Bianchi said.
We kept working on it, working
on it and tonight it was the best
its been this year.
The defense gave Meyers some
chances beyond the arc, but it fin-
ished unofficially 1-of-19 from
three-point range.
The Meyers offense found no
continuityall night as Krawczeni-
uk was the only player who had
morethanonefieldgoal inaquar-
ter. He had two in the second pe-
riod, but was shut down the rest
of the way.
That match-upzone, wereally
dont see that much in our
league, Toole said. We didnt
execute and settled for too many
long-range threes.
The Mohawks were also short-
handed with standout Eugene
Lewis inTexas for anall-star foot-
ball game and key reserve Tyriek
Stewardstill sidelinedwithanan-
kle injury.
Moore, who finished with a
team-high nine points, scored on
a drive to start the fourthquarter,
tying the game 26-26. Abington,
though, took control from there
by reeling off eight consecutive
points.

with a three-pointer fromAli Bar-
ber, forcing Redeemer into tak-
ing a timeout to try and slow the
pace. After the break, however,
Patriots forward Mia Hopkins
dished out two quick assists after
another basket in transition for a
13-2 run that eventually swelled
to19-4 at the end of the first quar-
ter.
That pressure early was very
bigfor us, saidHealey. We work
a lot at getting the other team to
turn the ball over and then run-
ning with it. Were very quick up
front and its a big advantage for
us.
The formula continued to keep
the game in Pittstons favor in the
second quarter.
With its full-court press keep-
ing Redeemer from settling in to
anything offensively, the Patriots
found a groove behind Hopkins
strong rebounding and impres-
sive passing.
The junior forward spent the
second quarter snaring any re-
bound that came her way before
directingPittstons offense upthe
floor, tallying four assists in the
quarter. The first came on a blind
pass over her shoulder to a wide
open Grace ONeal for a three-
pointer fromthe corner for a 24-6
lead. From there, the Patriots
outscored Redeemer 18-6 over
the next five minutes before set-
tling in to a 41-16 halftime lead.
She played an amazing game
for us tonight, said Healey of
Hopkins, who finished with a ro-
bust stat line of 24 points, 15 re-
bounds, six assists and four
steals, sealing tournament MVP
honors. She really kept her
teammates involved and she just
gets a little better every time out
there.
The third quarter was easily
the best chance Redeemer had to
get back in the game as the Roy-
als finally found some offensive
rhythm. Senior Paige Makowski
netted 10 of her team-high 16
points during Redeemers 23-
point outburst in the quarter, but
only to see any damage done off-
set by a 14-point binge fromHop-
kins.
We talked about that at half-
time, said Hopkins, who sat out
the majority of the fourth quarter
and watched Pittston again
clamp down defensively and lim-
it the Royals to nine points to end
the game. We knew they were
going to come out in the third
quarter and give us their best
punchandwe just hadtobe ready
to punch back.

PITTSBURGH Jaromir
Jagr and Max Talbot both
scored in their return to Pitts-
burgh, leading the Philadelphia
Flyers to a 4-2 win over the
Penguins on Thursday night.
Kimmo Timonen and Matt
Read also scored for the Flyers,
and Claude Giroux added two
assists as Philadelphia ended
the Penguins four-game win-
ning streak.
Sergei Bobrovsky stopped 24
shots for the Flyers, who im-
proved to 4-0 at Pittsburghs
Consol Energy Center since
the arena opened a year ago.
Tyler Kennedy had a goal
and an assist for Pittsburgh,
and Jordan Staal scored his

HolidayTournament. Before it be-
gan, the teams held a moment of
silence in honor of Rose, who was
called A devoted girls basketball
reporter from The Times Leader
who passed away unexpectedly.
Van was definitely a friend to
girls basketball in many ways,
Healey said.
Kelly Johnson, head coach of
the Dallas High School girls bas-
ketball team, said her teams
thoughts and prayers go out to
Rose and his friends and family.
He was just so bright and
knowledgeable, she said. He
had a vast background. He was al-
ways a gentleman.
Jack Kablick, Holy Redeemer
volleyball coach since 1998, said
Rose was dedicated to his job and
always provided great coverage.
He was always asking me
about how the league would be
and who will be tough, Kablick
said. He gave me respect and my
teams. I found him to be a man of
integrity who put everything into
his stories.
He was a heck of a nice guy.
Praise fromex-boss
Scott Wasser, vice president
and executive editor of MaineTo-
day Media that publishes three
daily newspapers, was executive
sports editor at The Times Leader
when Rose was hired.
He was probably one of the
best reporters of any kind that Ive
been associated with in the news-
paper or magazine business,
Wasser said. Ive never known a
city desk, political, or features re-
porter who was better than Van at
what he did.
Wasser said Rose immersed
himself in each story he covered.
He said Rose was nationally
known for his coverage of country
music and its performers.
Rose, of Plains Township, was a
native of Lexington, Ky., a gradu-
ate of the University of Kentucky
and a veteran of the U.S. Army
whoservedinVietnamin1968-69.
Richard L. Connor, who re-
stored The Times Leaders recent
ownership name to the Wilkes-
BarrePublishingCompanyandits
former editor and publisher,
brought Rose to the newspaper in
1982.
His newspaper experience had
depth, but I loved the sense of ad-
venture he had shown to try out a
new job for a while one far from
his comfort zone, Connor said.
Connor andRose owneda cou-
ple of harness racing horses to-
gether duringtheir timetogether
at The Times Leader.
He was the consummate jour-
neyman newspaperman the
likes of which we no longer have
the joy of knowing or seeing at
work, he said.
Connor said Rose could cover
any beat at the paper in a mo-
ments notice and do it justice.
Idiosyncratic toa fault inmany
ways, he still held a steady com-
pass with his work, he said. He
was a proandhe was myfriendfor
life.
Len Shimko, former chief exec-
utive officer at the Cross Valley
Credit Union, was saddened by
Roses passing.
What can you say, he was a
good friend, Shimko said. I al-
ways enjoyed my times with him;
we had spirited conversations
both good and bad.
Shimko said Rose would visit
him often and always had a posi-
tive comment.
A lot of people will miss him
from basketball to volleyball. He
really enjoyed what he did, he
said.
Amanda Grinavich, 23, did an
internshipat The Times Leader in
2007. Rose left quite an impres-
sion on the Crestwood High
School and Boston University
graduate.
Van was one of the friendliest
people Ive ever met, saidGrinav-
ich, who nowworks as an account
executive at Shift Communica-
tions in Boston.
He would speak up and sug-
gest projects for me. He encour-
agedmetotrydifferent things and
that gave me confidence in my
abilities.
Calling hours will be Monday
from5-8p.m. at theJohnV. Morris
Funeral Home, 625 N. Main St.,

will be Tuesday at 10 a.m. at the

At the same time we have to do
what Joe wouldwant us todo. We
have to stay Penn State and con-
tinue to stay focused.
Twenty-three
seniors will
play their final
game next
week. In the
last two
months theyve
banded togeth-
er in the face of
enormous ad-
versity.
Its been like no other season
in college football, defensive
end Jack Crawford said. It had
nothing to do with the program
right now. ... Weve been ridi-
culed. People have accused us of
things that we had no control
over. Its been interesting and an
experience.
Penn State had an 8-1 record
before Jerry Sandusky, a former
assistant coach who retired in
1999, was indicted Nov. 4 by a
Pennsylvania grand jury.
Since then, they lost to Nebras-
ka17-14andbeat OhioState20-14
on the road before losing at Wis-
consin 45-7 in their regular sea-
son finale. Then three bowls
passed on Penn State in favor of
BigTenteams that hadlost tothe
Nittany Lions and had worse re-
cords.
No, its not fair, Latimore
said. We had a great season. Let-
ting the scandal overshadow the
players when we had nothing to
do with it, thats just something
we shouldnt be remembered by.
People should remember the
heart of the team that stayed to-
gether through all of this and
coach Paterno getting his 409th
win.
Paterno passed former Gram-
bling coach Eddie Robinson for
the Division I record for wins
witha10-7victoryover Illinois on
Oct. 29. That turned out to be Pa-
ternos final game after 46 sea-
sons as Penn States head coach
and 16 as an assistant coach.

TUNKHANNOCK There al-
ways seems to be one killer
weight class in the Tunkhannock
Kiwanis Wrestling Tournament.
While every weight can show
toughness, this year the toughest
route to a championship appears
to be in the 132-pound bracket.
On the first day of the event on
Thursday, four grapplers who
wrestled well in the postseason a
year ago advanced to the semifi-
nals of the bracket.
Lake-Lehman sophomore Aus-
tin Harry, a returning state qual-
ifier, moved to todays semis with
a major decision and a pin. He
will face Wyalusings Ryan Hart
when the semifinals begin at 10
a.m. today. The winner of that
match advances to the finals,
which are slated for 5 p.m.
Hart, who claimed a cham-
pionship in the tournament last
year, fell short of the state tourna-
ment last year but won two
matches at regionals.
The other semi consists of a
duo from the Wyoming Valley
Conference with Coughlins
Frank Mahmoud and Wyoming
Areas Andy Schutz. Both were
runners-up in last years Kiwanis.
Schutz placed fourth at the Class
2A regional in 2010, while Mah-
moud won a few matches in re-
gionals.
Schutz earned a pair of falls on
Thursday, while Mahmoud
earned a pin in the second round
and a thrilling14-13 victory in the
quarters.
I didnt really think that (the
bracket) was going to be a prob-
lem but now I look at it and I
knowtheyre good kids and great
athletes, said Mahmoud, who
sawhis first action this season af-
ter suffering an injury in practice
for the UNICOfootball game last
month. But I believe if I go in
there every match and work hard
I believe Im going to win.
Mahmoud is one of six semifi-
nalists for his team, which is sec-
ond in the team standings after
the first day with 105 points, 11
behind leader and returning
champion Wyalusing.
Mahmouds teammates Bob
Hawkins (106), Bill Poray (113),
Ed Ciprich (120), Mark Meloro
(145) and Brad Emerick (285)
are also in the final four of their
respective weight classes. If the
Crusaders canovertake the Rams
for the title, it would be their first
in the 34-year history of the tour-
nament.
Wrestling back tough is a big
thing and getting pins in the con-
solation rounds really helps a
lot, Coughlin coach Steve Stahl
said. Thats where we lost a lot
of tournaments in the past and
we still have a lot of guys left,
which is good.
The Crusaders were outdone
by Lake-Lehman, which ad-
vanced seven to the semis.
Joining Harry in the semis for
the Black Knights are freshmen
JohnTomasura (106pounds) and
Jimmy Stuart (113), seniors Jake
Winters (145), Bryan Carter
(160), Nick Shelley (170) and
sophomore Brady Butler at 182.
Lehman is third in the team
standings with 102.50 points.
Wyalusing movedeight wrestlers
to this mornings semifinals. Leh-
man and Wyalusing will match
up twice in the semis to try to
close the gap. A team victory for
the Black Knights would be their
first at the Kiwanis since 1994.
The kids are working hard
and the results here are show-
ing, Lehman coach Tom Wil-
liams said. We are very pleased
with a lot of what we see and we
still have some work to do, but
seven in the semis, thats a start.
Wyoming Areas Nick Heck
moved to the semis at 138 to join
his teammate Schutz.
All participating teams from
the WVC have at least one semi-
finalist as GARs A.J. Luton will
wrestle in the 113-pound semi,
Tunkhannocks Charlie Generot-
ti (170), Nanticokes Pedro Brac-
ero (195) and Wyoming Semina-
rys Sal Diaz (152) also advanced.
After the semis, the medal
rounds are slated to begin at 3
p.m., with the finals scheduled
for 5 p.m.

Osi Umenyiora would not
commit to playing on Sunday
against the Cowboys. What he
did promise is that if he does
play, hell be the Osi of old.
I wouldnt be out there if I
wasnt going to be myself, the
defensive end who has missed
the last four games with a high
ankle sprain said Thursday. No-
body cares if youre injured as
evidenced with other players
around here. Everybody just ex-
pects you to be the same guy no
matter what. Whenever you feel
able to go out and play is when
youhavetogoout thereandplay.
If Im out there on the football
field, Ill be myself."
Umenyiora suffered a high an-
kle sprain on Nov. 28 against the
Saints and has not played since.
This week he returned to the
practice field and was limited on
Wednesday and Thursday.
Everybody who has had the
same type of high ankle sprain
that I had has told me its a 4-6
week recovery time, he said.
Ive seen other guys who have
had the same injury try to come
back like a Sam Bradford and
Ben Roethlisberger and it just
seemed like they were complete-
ly off. So I was a little concerned
about that. But after last week
things started to improve a little
bit and hopefully things will
work out for me on Sunday."
Defensive coordinator Perry
Fewell was excited by Umenyio-
ras return to practice.
Anytime 72 walks on the
fieldfor us, he looks goodtome,"
he said.
Umenyiora said he doesnt ex-
pect to come back and take his
starting job back (especially
since it nowbelongs to Pro Bow-
ler Jason Pierre-Paul). And he
said that hes not averse to play-
ing on the left side, a position he
has not played since 2004. In
short, hes looking to be an addi-
tion and not a disruption.
I dont expect to play a whole
bunch of plays but when Imin Im
going to come as hard as I can, he
said. I feel like Im still one of the
very good defensive ends, so as
long as I can be myself, then Ill be
out there. If not, then theres no
point in taking away their reps.
The key for Umenyiora will be
how he is able to burst off his an-
kle.
Its always explosiveness, he
said. My whole thing is my first
step and my explosion. I have to
have that. The past couple of
weeks I havent had it but it seems
to be coming around now.

on both sides in the first half,
FSU trailed 14-0 early in the
third quarter before finding
some momentum through the
air.
The Seminoles closed the gap
to 14-9 with an 18-yard touch-
down pass from Manuel to Bert
Reed to open the fourth quarter,
but failed on their 2-point con-
version attempt.
They took the lead just 1:32
later after Nigel Bradham inter-
cepted a Hendrix pass inside the
Notre Dame 20 to set up an 18-
yard touchdown catch by
Greene to make it 15-14 with just
over 13 minutes to play follow-
ing another failed 2-point try.
The Seminoles added their
second field goal of the game a
series later.
Notre Dame punted on its
next touch, but pinned FSU in-
side its own 5 and forced a quick
three-and-out.
A poor punt by the Seminoles
and a face mask penalty on the
return gave the Irish the ball on
the FSU28 with 3:56 to play, but
Rees was picked off in the end
zone with 2:48 left and FSU was
able to all but run out the re-
maining clock.
Notre Dame took a 14-0 lead
on its opening drive of the sec-
ond half by capping a 9-play, 62-
yard drive with a 5-yard touch-
down pass fromRees to Michael
Floyd. Floyd fought Seminoles
cornerback Greg Reid for the
ball on the play, juggling it mul-
tiple times before finally getting
his hands around it.
Reid stayed down on the turf
after the play and left the game
with concussion symptoms.
FSU bounced right back with
a 77-yard kickoff return by La-
marcus Joyner, but Notre
Dames fifth sack of the night on
Manuel helped force the Semi-
noles to settle for a 42-yard field
goal by Hopkins.
Notre Dames defense was re-
sponsible for the lone score of
the first half.
The Irish forced a quick punt
on FSUs opening possession of
the game, and used a 41-yard re-
turnby Floydanda series of runs
by Cierre Wood to set up a first-
and-goal inside the 5-yard line.
But the threat ended just a
play later when Rees was picked
off by Joyner in the end zone.
The Seminoles ensuing drive
lasted only one play itself, with
Devonta Freeman fumbling a
pass fromManuel into the hands
of Notre Dame safety Zeke Mot-
ta, who then returned it 29 yards
for the touchdown.
Both offenses struggled to
find any traction in the opening
30 minutes.
Along with each teams turn-
overs, Florida States offense
gained only 104 total yards to
Notre Dames 91.
The Seminoles also failed to
covert on any of their seven
third-down attempts, while al-
lowing four sacks. Notre Dame
safety Jamoris Slaughter was re-
sponsible for two of them, tying
a bowl record.
FSUs special teams didnt fair
too much better, coming up a
yard short on a fake punt run
midway through second quarter.

NEW YORK Iowa State
scored the most significant upset
of this college football season,
handing Oklahoma State its only
loss and setting the stage for a
BCS title game rematch between
Alabama and LSU.
Oh, yeah, and the Cyclones al-
so became bowl eligible on that
memorableFridaynight inAmes,
Iowa.
To the rest of the country that
was a footnote to Iowa States
mesmerizing 37-31 double-over-
time victory on Nov. 18, but to a
program that has had more fail-
ure than success in its history,
getting that sixth win was huge.
It endedupbeingthe last victo-
ry of the regular season for the
Cyclones, but it was enough to
earn thema trip to the Big Apple
and a bid to the Pinstripe Bowl at
Yankee Stadium, where they will
play Rutgers on Friday.
Today our football team went
to the top of the Empire State
Building, Iowa State coach Paul
Rhoads said Thursday. We rang
thebell at theNewYorkStockEx-
change. We visited Sloan-Ketter-
ing Memorial Hospital and spent
a great time with a number of
children, then we walked Yankee
Stadium.
We got to do things in one day
that most people dont get to do
in a lifetime.
All because they beat Oklaho-
ma State.
Iowa State (6-6) was 5-4 going
into that game against the unde-
feated Cowboys, but with nation-
ally ranked Oklahoma and Kan-
sas State to follow, bowl eligibil-
ity seemed so close but yet so far.
The Cyclones responded with
an inspired performance on a big
stage.
It gave us great national press,
which I think is going to help our
recruiting and is going to help far
beyond one game, said junior li-
nebacker A.J. Klein, the Big 12s
co-defensive player of the year.
Its going to be a big part of our
history ... Were hoping to contin-
ue to make history the next cou-
ple years.
Rhoads, an Iowa native, is up
for trying. He signed a 10-year
contract extension after the sea-
son, putting an end to specula-
tion he might take another job.
He has taken the Cyclones to
bowls in two of his three seasons
and need look no further than
across the field at Yankee Stadi-
um to find an example of a pro-
gram that has gone from a long-
time loser to a consistent winner.
Rutgers hadplayedinone bowl
game before Greg Schiano took
over as coach in 2001. He didnt
have his first winning season
with the Scarlet Knights until
2005. Since then, Rutgers has re-
ached the postseason every sea-
son but one last year.
The Scarlet Knights bounced
back with an 8-4 record this sea-
son on the strength of quick and
aggressive defense that has be-
come something of a trademark
under Schiano.
Led by linebacker Khaseem
Greene, the Big Easts co-defen-
sive player of the year, the Scarlet
Knights rank 14th in the nation
and No. 1 in the conference in to-
tal defense at 314 yards allowed
per game.
Greene is easy to spot for Rutg-
ers. Onthe field, hes usually near
the ball, ranking12th in the coun-
try in tackles at 10.58 per game.
On the sideline, hes the guy with
the bright red streak dyed down
the middle of his thick black
braided hair.

U P N E X T
TEMPE, Ariz. When Okla-
homa defensive captain Travis
Lewis zipped up over the final six
weeks of the season, it was a pret-
ty goodindicationof just howdis-
appointing the year had gone for
the Sooners.
Everybody knew the expecta-
tionsgoingintothisseasonthe
fans did, wedid, thecoaches did,
Lewis, asenior linebacker, saidaf-
ter breaking his silence. The
most disappointing thing is we
felt like we had that team. We felt
like we had all the pieces in place
this year. And we didnt meet ex-
pectations.
WhenOklahoma (9-3) faces Io-
wa in tonights Insight Bowl at
Sun Devil Stadium, it will be the
Sooners 13thstraight bowl ev-
ery year since coach Bob Stoops
tookovertheprogramandgive
thema chance at a nation-leading
33rd season with at least 10 wins.
Nice accomplishments, just
not what was expected coming
out of Norman.
Armed with one of the nations
best quarterbacks in Landry
Jones and receivers in Ryan
Broyles, with talented players at
pretty much every position and a
No. 1ranking, theSooners hadas-
pirations of earning their second
national title under Stoops and
eighth overall.
They got off to a solid start,
bumping off Florida State and
Texaswhilewinningtheirfirst six
games. A 41-38 home loss to Tex-
as TechonOct. 22hurt, but, if the
rest of the season unfolded just
right, Oklahoma could still be
right in the thick of the national-
championship chase.
Following a resounding win
over No. 8 Kansas State the next
week, theSooners seasonstarted
to unravel.
Broyles, an All-American and
the NCAAs all-time leader in re-
ceptions, tore a knee ligament
against Texas A&Mthefollowing
week. Oklahoma won that game,
but followed with a loss to Baylor
andendedthe regular seasontwo
weeks later with a deflating 44-10
rout to rival Oklahoma State.
Iowa(7-5) doesnt figuretobea
walkover for the Sooners.
The Hawkeyes barely won half
their games, but played a brutal
schedule that included seven
ranked teams. Iowa also has a bit
of confidence in bowls, having
won a school-record three
straight.
Oklahoma is favored by 14 and
Iowa will be without running
back Marcus Coker, who was sus-
pended for violating the universi-
tys student-athlete code of con-
duct.
Iowa will try to replace Cokers
1,384 yards and 15 touchdowns

NASHVILLE, Tenn. Wake
Forest wide receiver Chris Giv-
ens has some powerful motiva-
tion when the Demon Deacons
meet Mississippi State for the
first game between the pro-
grams.
Its not protecting Atlantic
Coast Conference bragging
rights over the mighty South-
eastern Conference.
No, this is much more person-
al.
Mississippi State linebacker
Christian Holmes is Givens sec-
ond cousin, and that means fam-
ily pride is on the line Friday
night at the Music City Bowl.
I knowif he wins, Imnot ever
going to hear the end of it, Giv-
ens said. I really dont want
that. Just going home because
everybody is Mississippi State
fans. I would like to just go home
and say we beat Mississippi
State in a bowl game.
Wake Forest coach Jim Grobe
doesnt care what motivates Giv-
ens, the redshirt junior who set a
school record with 1,276 yards
receiving this season.
I would guess if you grew up
in Mississippi, that youd want to
play well against Ole Miss or
Mississippi State, either one,
Grobe said. Hopefully, well
see.
Mississippi State wants to fin-
ish off a season that started with
high expectations only to end
with its first trip to the Music
City Bowl after six losses to
teams ranked in the Top 25 at
some point in the season. After
back-to-back losses to Alabama
and Arkansas, the Bulldogs be-
came bowl eligible by routing
Ole Miss 31-3 in the Egg Bowl.
Senior running back Vick Bal-
lard and senior quarterback
Chris Relf, who will start his sec-
ond straight game, know what
they want now.
I want to win, and I want to
leave out on a good note and
hopefully send the younger guys
intonext seasonona goodnote,
Relf said.
Relf will start because sopho-
more Tyler Russell sprained his
left MCL in practice before com-
ingtoNashville. CoachDanMul-
len has limited Russell, who
started four games this season,
to make sure hes healthy
enough to play if needed against
Wake Forest as the only other op-
tiononthe roster at quarterback.
I expect him to be ready to
play, Mullen said. I want to see
how the game goes.
The Bulldogs have won four
straight bowl games, including
Mullens first as coach last year
52-14 over Michigan in the Gator
Bowl. Relf started that game and
was the MVP, throwing for 281
yards and three touchdowns.
This bowl is Wake Forests
10th bowl overall and first since
2008, when the Demon Deacons
beat Navy 29-19 in the Eagle-
Bank Bowl. Their only other
bowl game against an SEC team
was a 34-10 loss to LSU in the
1979 Tangerine Bowl.
The Demon Deacons want to
capa seasoninwhichtheyve ral-
lied from a 3-9 record in 2010.
Were looking at it, we dont
want to end the season on a sour
note, Wake Forest nose guard
Nikita Whitlock said. We want
to end on a high.
Grobe is concerned about con-
taining Ballard, who ran for
1,009 yards this season and eight
touchdowns.

Local Sears, Kmart stores
not on initial closing list
Sears Holdings on Thursday an-
nounced the locations of 79 Sears and
Kmart stores that will be closed by the
financially troubled chain. No local
stores are on the list, but its too early
to say if they will all make the cut, as
the company has said it will close 100
to 120 stores in all.
Sears Holdings said Tuesday that it
would no longer prop up marginally
performing locations.
The only Pennsylvania stores on the
list announced today are Sears stores
in Upper Darby and Pottstown.
Verizon adds payment fee
Verizon Wireless, the countrys large-
st cellphone company, is introducing a
$2 fee for every payment subscribers
make over the phone or online with
their credit cards.
The company says this convenience
fee will be introduced Jan. 15.
The fee wont apply to electronic
check payments or to automatic credit
card payments set up through Verizons
AutoPay system. Paying by credit card
in a Verizon store will also be free, as
will mailing a check.
Pending home sales up
The number of Americans who
signed contracts to buy homes in No-
vember rose more than 7 percent to the
highest level in a year and a half, the
National Association of Realtors said
Thursday.
Contract signings usually indicate
where the housing market is headed,
but a growing number of buyers are
canceling their contracts at the last
minute, making the gauge less reliable,
the Realtors group said.
Elly May settles Barbie suit
The actress who played Elly May
Clampett on the The Beverly Hill-
billies has settled her lawsuit over a
Barbie doll that uses the characters
name and likeness.
An attorney for actress Donna Dou-
glas says she settled with CBS and
toymaker Mattel on Tuesday. Details of
the settlement were confidential.
Douglas claimed CBS Consumer
Products Inc. and Mattel Inc. needed
her approval for the Barbie. CBS and
Mattel said they didnt need her OK
because the network holds exclusive
rights to the character.

THE TIMES LEADER FRIDAY, DECEMBER 30, 2011

WASHINGTON The number of
people seeking unemployment bene-
fits rose last week after three weeks
of decline.
Even with the gain, applications
remained at a level consistent with
modest hiring. And the broader
trend over the past month suggests
job growth could pick up further in
the new year.
Weekly applications increased by
15,000 to a seasonally adjusted
381,000, the Labor Department said
Thursday.
The four-week average, a less vola-
tile measure, dropped for the fourth
straight week to 375,000. Thats the
lowest level since June 2008.
Despite the rise in the weekly
claims data, the longer-term trend ...
suggests that the recovery in the la-
bor market is maintaining its mo-
mentum, said Michael Gapen, an
economist at Barclays Capital, in a
note to clients.
Applications generally must fall
below 375,000 consistently to
signal that hiring is strong enough to
reduce the unemployment rate.
While layoffs have fallen sharply
since the recession officially ended
two and a half years ago, many com-
panies have been slow to add jobs.
Economists caution that the fig-
ures can be volatile around the holi-
days.
Hiring has improved in recent
months. Employers have added an
average of 143,000 net jobs a month
from September through November.
Thats almost double the average for
the previous three months.
Next year should be even better. A
survey of 36 economists by the Asso-
ciated Press this month found that
they expect the economy will gener-
ate an average of about 175,000 jobs
per month in 2012.
About 7.2 million people are re-
ceiving unemployment benefits, as
of the week ending Dec. 10, the latest
data available. Thats an increase of
about 80,000 from the previous
week.
Jobless claims rise, but outlook still improving
By CHRISTOPHER S. RUGABER
AP Economics Writer
SACRAMENTO, Calif. Its
the end of an era. As of Saturday,
itll no longer be possible to walk
into a bank or credit union and
buy a U.S. savings bond in paper
form. Starting Monday, savings
bonds can only be purchased on-
line.
The paperless shift is designed
to save the U.S. Treasury an esti-
mated $120 million in the next
five years, as well as help protect
consumers against loss or theft of
their paper bonds.
It ends a 76-year-old tradition
of paper savings bonds, which
made their first appearance in
1935 under President Franklin D.
Roosevelt. But going electronic-
only doesnt change the basics of
buying or redeeming savings
bonds, says the Treasury. Buyers
can still purchase annually up to
$5,000 of new Series EE and Se-
ries I bonds. Savings bonds can
be bought as gifts (but are held
electronically until ready to be
gifted).
Existing paper bonds can still
be redeemed at financial institu-
tions andwill continue to earnin-
terest for upto 30 years fromdate
of issue.
The only exception to the new
rule is for tax filers, who can pur-
chase paper Series I savings
bonds using their federal tax re-
funds.
The switch follows last years
move by the federal government
to eliminate paper Social Securi-
ty checks for new recipients and
instead deposit them electroni-
cally into bank accounts.

electronically, youll need to set
up a TreasuryDirect account, us-
ing your Social Security number
and a savings or checking ac-
count where funds can be depos-
ited.

BRUNSWICK, Maine Anearly cen-
tury-oldhuntingboot is catchingonwith
a younger generation that sees the utili-
tarian footwear as hip.
L.L Beans familiar duck boot with
leather uppers and rubber soles de-
signed for slogging through mud and
snowhas become somethingof a fash-
ionstatement owingtoitsnewfoundpop-
ularity on college campuses, the compa-
ny says. Another reason is newstyles, in-
cludingsomethingLeonLeonwoodBean
surely never envisioned in 1912: bright
blue and pink leather, newfor spring.
Part of the success of the boot is its ver-
satility, in barnyards or in cities, in snow
or rain.
Sales have grown from 150,000 pairs
four years ago to about 400,000 this year,
said Jack Samson, L.L. Bean senior man-
ager for manufacturing in Brunswick.
Next year, demand is projected to reach
500,000.
Defying a trend toward offshore pro-
duction, the outdoors retailer is adding
125 full-time employees to its Maine-
based manufacturing operation to keep
pace with orders.
The well-known boot appears to be
benefitingfromaretrotrend, whether its
penny loafers or the Gaps 1969 series
blue jeans, said Candace Corlett, presi-
dent of WSL Strategic Retail in New
York.
Its sort of like the Coca-Cola bottle or
the sleek silver lines of Apple. Its iconic.
Andwhenyouhave that kindof icon, you
leverage it, Corlett said.
Another factor that could be helping
Bean: Theres been little thats new and
exciting in footwear in recent years be-
yond UGGboots and Crocs, said Alexan-
der Geyman, editor of Focus on Fashion
Retail, outsideLos Angeles. TrendyUGG
boots and the Timberland brand outstrip
Beans in sales, he said.
Theboots carrytheMadeintheUSA
label, something thats hard to find these
days in footwear. Nationwide, the num-
ber of shoe-manufacturing jobs dropped
from more than 200,000 in the 1970s to
12,500 this year, according to the U.S. La-
bor Department.
Well-known Maine brands like G.H.
Bass, Cole Haan, Sebago and Dexter are
now made abroad. But L.L. Bean has re-
sisted the notion of making its Bean
boots overseas.

First Full Last New
Jan. 1 Jan. 9 Jan. 16 Jan. 23
We had some
light snow and
sprinkles last
night as a weak
wave of low
pressure moved
through the
atmosphere.
Another one will
move through
tonight, bringing
some light rain
showers and
urries, but we
don't expect a
lot of precipita-
tion. Today will
be much warmer
than yesterday.
Some light rain
is likely along
with mild
overnight tem-
peratures. The
holiday weekend
is still looking
warm with after-
noon tempera-
tures in the 40s.
The weather
models still show
rain developing
Sunday evening
ahead of an arc-
tic cold front
that will move
through Monday
morning, bring-
ing the coldest
air weve had all
winter.
- Kurt Aaron
NATIONAL FORECAST: A storm system will come onshore in the Northwest today, producing rain and
higher elevation snow from the Pacic Northwest and northern California into the northern Rockies.
Rain and snow may be heavy at times. Another low pressure system will bring rain and snow to the
Upper Midwest and the eastern Great Lakes, with scattered showers possible in the Northeast.
