SCRANTON An attorney for
former Judge Mark Ciavarella
said he intends to file a petition
asking the court to pay the legal
fees associated with appeals that
will be filed of Ciavarellas convic-
tion and sentence.
Attorney William Ruzzo said
that, todate, neither henor his co-
counsel, Al Flora, has been paid
any money either by Ciavarella or
the government for the work
theyve performed on the case.
Ruzzo said he plans to ask the
court to appoint them for the ap-
pellate court process, which
would entitle them to be paid
$125 per hour the current feder-
al rate for court-appointed attor-
neys.
He alsowill askthe court topay
the cost of the trial transcript,
which is required to be filed as
part of theappeal totheThirdCir-
cuit Court of Appeals.
The appointment, if granted,
wouldcover only workthat is per-
formed from here on, Ruzzo said.
It would not be retroactive for
workperformedleadinguptoand
including the trial, he said.
Ciavarella was sentenced last
week to 28 years in prison for his
conviction on charges related to
his acceptance of $997,600 from
Robert Mericle, thebuilder of two
juvenile detention centers that
were utilized by the county.
His attorneys say they believe
they have at least five meritorious
issues to raise onappeal. They ex-
pect to file notice of the appeal by
late next week.

A federal appellate court has
overturned a more than
$500,000 verdict a jury entered
in favor of a state police trooper
who claimed a supervisor had
illegally recorded a phone con-
versation with him.
The Third Circuit Court of
Appeals said U.S. District Judge
A. Richard Ca-
puto erred
when he ruled
that Capt. Wil-
liard Oliphant
and Carmen
Altavilla, for-
mer com-
mander of the
state police
barracks in
Wyoming,
were not im-
mune from the
claims filed by
Trooper Mario
J. Diana.
Diana sued
Oliphant and
Altavilla in 2005, claiming Oli-
phant had recorded a 2003
phone conversation with him
regarding a workers compensa-
tion claim without Dianas
knowledge.
Oliphant had been directed to
make the call by Altavilla. Both
Oliphant and Altavilla are now
retired from the state police.
Dianas suit claimed Oliphant
and Altavilla had violated the
states wiretap law and his
Fourth Amendment right to be
free of warrantless search and
seizure.

PLAINS TWP. A man got
away with an undisclosed
amount of cash after robbing a
branch of Wells Fargo bank near
the Mohegan Sun at Pocono
Downs casino at the bustling in-
tersection of Route 315 and Fox
Hill Road on Monday morning.
Authorities saidthe man, inhis
early 20s and approximately 6
feet 2 inches tall, entered the
bank through the front doors and
passed a note to a teller at about
11:45 a.m. He ran out the front
door and fled in an unknown di-
rection.
Police described the suspect as
a white male withshort darkhair,
wearing sunglasses, a blue T-
shirt, dark-colored shorts and
white sneakers. The man has an
unknown type of tattoo on his
right bicep, authorities said.
It remained unknown if the
man had a vehicle.
Twocustomers inside the bank
at the time of the robbery refused
to comment when they left the
business at about 12:20 p.m.
The bank was closed for most
of Monday while investigators in-
terviewed employees and re-
viewed surveillance video. At
least a dozen customers pulling
into the parking lot or drive-thru
were turned away when told the
bank was closed due to a robbery.
A sign was placed on the front
door stating the bank was closed
due to an emergency. A hand-
written note was also placed out-

WILKES-BARRE TWP. Drivers have no-
ticed that the price of gasoline has been drop-
ping lately, but its nowhere near fast enough
for their taste, especially giventhe significant
drop in the price of crude oil.
Theyre coming down, but they go up a
hell of a lot faster thanthey come down, Ken
Jones, of Wilkes-Barre, saidof gas prices as he
checkedtheoil level inhispickupat Sheetzon
Monday evening.
Why is that?
I havenoidea,Jonessaid. Theoil compa-
nies are stealing fromus, thats all.
The price of crude oil has dropped from a
high this year of about $100 per barrel in late
May and early June to about $91per barrel in
late June, climbed again to nearly $100 per
barrel inlateJulyanddroppeddownto$85.38
on Friday $1.50 lower than on the previous
Friday.
Thelast timeoil prices werethis lowwas in
February, when gas in the Wilkes-Barre area
averaged$3.17per gallon. OnFriday, gas here
averaged $3.60 per gallon.

High School, theorized that the economy

Although oil prices
have dropped nearly 15

WILKES-BARRE A Lu-
zerne County judge will decide
whether a Luzerne borough ci-
tizens request to reduce the
number of council members
from seven to five should be
granted.
Judge Lewis Wetzel on Mon-
day heard testimony in Kath-
leen Pajors attempt to reduce
council in a cost-cutting mea-
sure.
Pajor, a borough resident and
former council candidate, origi-
nally made the request in May
by garnering dozens of names
on a petition to file the appro-
priate court action to reduce
the size of council.
Wetzel said after hearing tes-
timony from Pajor and council
member Kurt Santayana in sup-
port of the reduction, as well as
from council members who op-
pose the request, that he will re-
view court papers attorneys
must submit by next Monday
before making a ruling.
Attorney Mark Bufalino, who
represented Pajor, said that be-
cause of the small population of
Luzerne borough roughly
3,000 his client had to gather
only 80 signatures in support of
the reduction.
Pajor testified she is aware
council members took a pay
cut, from $1,200 annually to
$1,100, and that they cut many
full-time workers and health
care insurance, but that the
$2,400 it costs to pay two addi-
tional members could help the
borough.
Pajor argued the population
of the borough does not sup-
port the number of current
council members.
Santayana also testified Mon-
day, saying the reduction, to
him, is all about balance.
The reduction of council,
Santayana said, would demol-
ish the political machine and
would bring balance to the
community by reducing the
number of votes needed for a
majority. Attorney Jonathan
Spohrer, who represents the
borough, called council Chair-
man Mike Jancuska to testify.
Jancuska said each council
member serves on a number of
committees in the borough,
and the more people giving
opinions about the boroughs
welfare, the better.
Councilman William Turcan
echoed Jancuskas comments,
stating legal fees to fight Pajors
request are expensive, and
council members get paid only
roughly $900 a month.
The more people we have on
council will give us a better
opportunity to serve the peo-
ple, Mayor James Keller testi-
fied.
Plea to cut Luzerne council nears ruling
Activist Kathleen Pajor says
the town is too small to need
seven council members.

ROSS TWP. The Lake-Leh-
man School Board approved
several hires and resignations
at its meeting Monday eve-
ning.
Mallory Griggs, of Factory-
ville, was hired as a temporary
secondary mathematics teach-
er with a salary of $42,181effec-
tive Aug. 24. Griggs is a former
substitute teacher at Lakeland
High School in Scott Town-
ship, and this is her first long-
term teaching appointment.
The board also hired the fol-
lowing substitute teachers at a
per diem rate for the 2011-12
school year: Lesley Baltimore,
Amanda Boice, Paul Broody,
AllisonConnell, Nicole Height,
Kimberly Leary, Rachel Rost
and Mark Umphred.
Esther Liuzzi, of Kingston,
was appointed as a district
health assistant at a rate of $11
per hour for 186 days per year
effective Aug. 25.
The board approved a letter
of retirement for Irene Race,
elementary music teacher, ef-
fective Aug. 1.
The following letters of re-
signation were accepted, with
regret: Maureen Devine, head
swim coach, and Sandra Boyle,
varsity assistant field hockey
coach.
In other business, the board
heard from Director of Tech-
nology Brian Murphy about
switching the district phone
system from basic telephone
lines to a voice-over IP system.
Dimension Tel LLC Tele-
communications Consulting &
Support Services, of Wyoming,
recently concluded a telecom-
munications expense analysis
for the district and Murphy
said the district is currently
paying $5 a month for 285 tele-
phone lines.
He said switching to the
voice over IP system, which
would allow phones to be con-
nected to data jacks rather than
phone jacks, would decrease
the number of phone lines to 28
throughout the four schools
and administration building,
saving the district about
$40,000 a year.
The upgrades necessary to
complete the switch would
cost about $150,000, but Mur-
phy said the conversion would
pay for itself within three or
four years.
Board member Drew Salko
said he has a similar systemset
up at his workplace and had
concerns about reliability of
the service.

EDWARDSVILLE A King-
ston teenager was arrested Mon-
day and charged in connection
with an ax attack on Roosevelt
Street last week.
Adrian Michael Lucy, 17, of
Wyoming Avenue, was charged
with two counts each of robbery
with threat of serious injury, ag-
gravated assault involving seri-
ous injury, simple assault, simple
assault/physical menace, aggra-
vated assault with a weapon, ter-
roristic threats, recklessly endan-
gering another person, harass-
ment and disorderly conduct.
He was arraigned before Dis-
trict Judge Joseph Carmody in
West Pittston and jailed at Lu-
zerne County Correctional Facil-
ity for lack of $25,000 bail. His
preliminary hearingis set for1:30
p.m. Aug. 24 before District
Judge Paul Roberts in Kingston.
According to court papers:
Borough police responded to
95 Roosevelt St. at 8:11p.m. Aug.
9for a report of anassault withan
ax and at least one person in-
jured. There, they found three
victims Joseph J. Simonson,
Matthew Hetro and Alyssa He-
tro. Simonsonhadmultiple lacer-
ations and bruising to his head
and face and was transported to
Geisinger Wyoming Valley Med-
ical Center, police said.
Police recovered a bloodied
hand ax out of the open bed of Si-
monsons pickup truck, which
was parked nearby.
Police were then dispatched to
7 Beverly Drive, Apartment 2, re-
garding a male who was just as-
saulted. There, they encountered
Timothy Drakes, who had multi-
ple lacerations on the back of his
head, swelling and a few marks
on his face, and Lucy, who had
blood on his shorts, police said.
Police said Lucy told them he
and Drakes were involved in a
physical altercation on Roosevelt
Street and fled to the Beverly
Drive apartment.
After interviewing all parties,
including a witness who called in
the complaint, police deter-
minedthat Simonsonandthe He-
tros had arrived at their Roose-
velt Street home and were get-
ting out of their vehicle when Lu-
cy and Drakes approached them
and made small talk with Alys-
sa Hetro about drugs.
Lucy put a small handgun to
the backof MatthewHetros head
and told him not to do anything
stupid while searching Hetros
pockets.
When Simonson saw Lucy
holding Hetro at gunpoint, he
grabbed a hand ax out of the back
of his pickup. Then, Drakes
grabbed Simonson from behind,
andSimonson, fearingfor his life,
struck Drakes with the ax.
A fight broke out between
Drakes and Simonson and, at one
point, Drakes had partial control
of the ax and struck Simonson in
the head with it at least once. Si-
monson struck Drakes with the
ax a few more times before Lucy
intervened, and Lucy and Drakes
struck Simonsons head off the
street multiple times before flee-
ing, police said.
Police said the Hetros fled to
their residence to get help from
their parents after Lucy focused
his attention on Simonson.

NUANGOLA Councilman
Steven Hudack came under at-
tack at Mondays borough coun-
cil meeting for his alleged failure
to attend council meetings and
to formulate a plan for the repair
of streets.
Two residents, Terry Jones
and John DiRico, called for Hu-
dacks resignation and ques-
tioned why council had not act-
edpreviously toremove Hudack.
Jones proposed Hudack be im-
mediately be replaced. He also
said a replacement should be
named to the streets and equip-
ment committee, which has Hu-
dack as its chairman.
He called Hudack incompe-
tent.
Councilman John Kochan vol-
unteered to serve, but there was
no motion by council to act on
his proposal.
DiRico repeated a demand he
made at the July meeting when
he initially demanded Hudack
be supplanted. Hudack, who re-
cently has missed two consecu-
tive regular meetings and was
absent for a special session on
Aug. 10, has more than a year-
and-a-half (until 2013) to serve.
ChairwomanRegina Plodwick
said that council has no author-
ity to remove Hudack. She said
law doesnt exist to have him ex-
pelled.
Kochan, however, said bor-
oughstreets are replete withpot-
holes and are in dire need of at-
tention.
We need a plan. We cant go
on without a (committee) chair-
man, he said. Kochanalso saida
recent project to alleviate water
runoff on Rock Island Road is
not working. He said$6,100was
ill-spent.
Plodwick also came under fire
from Sally DiRico, secretary of
the sewer authority, who con-
tended the U.S. Department of
Agriculture has not relaxed an
ultimatum on deadlines it set
down for soliciting and approv-
ing bids for the proposed sewer
project. She said Nuangola is
still under pressure with regard
to USDAs $3 million grant.
DiRico said Nuangola is still
under a deadline. But Plodwick
said USDA officials said at an
Aug. 4 meeting that they will
work with us.
Kochan who was at that meet-
ing which had John Williams,
USDA Harrisburg, and Mike An-
derson, a USDA engineer from
Tunkhannock, in attendance,
said a Nov. 1 deadline for con-
tract bids remains in effect. Ko-
chan serves as chairman of the
sewer authority.
Previously he said he antici-
pates an engineering plan being
formulated by Quad 3 Engineers
of Wilkes-Barre will be ready by
mid-September or early Octo-
ber.
In another part of the argu-
ment, Melissa Weber, secretary/
treasurer, said she was told by
U.S. Rep. Lou Barletta that he
would not let Nuangola lose the
grant.
Weber, however, in response
to Jones, said she doesnt have
Barlettas pledge in writing.
Weber said she will schedule an-
other meeting with Barlettas of-
fice.
There was comment that the
USDA, because of the elapsed
time involved, is under pressure
from the Obama administration
to withdraw the grant.
And, it was acknowledgedthat
the state Department of Envi-
ronmental Protection had sent a
letter in which it demanded that
contracts be awarded by Jan. 21,
2012 and completion be by Dec.
21, 2012.

Prosecutors say Lebron was part of
the drug ring, in which undercover

SCRANTON Former Lack-

Robert Cordaro is seeking a
new trial, arguing the govern-
ment withheld information
about a prosecution key wit-
ness that wouldhavebeenhelp-
ful to Cordaros case.
Attorneys for Cordaro also
argue U.S. District Judge A. Ri-
chard Caputo
wrongly pre-
cluded the
defense from
presenting
evidence that
would have
challenged
the credibili-
ty of that wit-
ness.
Cordaro was convicted in
June of 18 counts, including
bribery, extorting and money
laundering for demanding
money from several contrac-
tors who did business with the
county. His co-defendant, for-
mer Commissioner A.J. Mun-
chak, was convicted of seven
counts.
In a post-trial motion filed
Friday, Cordaros attorneys,
WilliamCostopoulos and Allen
Johnson, argue the verdict
should be overturned because
the government knew or
should have known that a key
witness, Al Hughes, hadliedon
the stand when he said he stop-
ped gambling in 2004.
Hughes had testified he was
the go-between who delivered
thousands of dollars of the ex-
torted money to Cordaro. Cor-
daro denied taking any bribes
from Hughes, whom he said
was a compulsive gambler. If
Hughes did take any money, he
used it to feed his addiction,
Cordaro claimed.
In its motion, the defense al-
leges prosecutors failed to dis-
close all financial information
regarding Hughes, including
the existence of casino markers
lines of credit casinos extend
to gamblers that were issued
to him. That information

addiction instead, the attor-
neys wrote.

There are some very sick people in the

Three years after Congress
approved a well-intentioned
but flawed consumer law to
protect children from lead, it
has been amended. Some local
shopkeepers are breathing a
sigh of relief.
Thats good news, said Kip-
pie Morgan, who owns They
Grow So Fast, a consignment
shop in Dallas. She called the
law extreme but said she un-
derstood why Congress rushed
to take action.
In 2008, a spate of childrens
toys mostly made in China
were found to have high levels
of lead and mass recalls were
ordered.
Congress then passed The
Consumer Product Safety Im-
provement Act (CPSIA) and
President George W. Bush
signed it into law. One of the
laws provisions required all
products for children younger
than 12 be tested for lead and
phthalates, which are chem-
icals used to make plastics
more pliable, or be pulled from
the shelves.
The testing must be done
even if the items were made be-
fore the lawwas passed, wheth-
er they have components that
could have been made with
lead or not.
Before the inkwas dry, indus-
try officials began complaining
that the lawwas too broad, had
too many ambiguities and
didnt take into account mom-
and-pop retailers who sold
clothes on consignment or
thrift stores such as the Salva-
tion Army or Goodwill that
didnt have the financial means
to pay for such tests.
Retailers or resellers would
be unable, under the law, to sell
items unless they have the pa-
perwork certifying theyve
been tested. Thrift stores and

BAGHDAD
Bombings kill 63 people
A
relentless barrage of bombings
killed 63 people Monday in the
most sweeping and coordinated attack
Iraq has seen in over a year, striking 17
cities from northern Sunni areas to the
southern Shiite heartland.
The surprising scope and sophisti-
cation of the bloodbath suggested that
al-Qaida remains resilient despite re-
cent signs of weakness. Such attacks,
infrequent as they are deadly, will like-
ly continue long after American forces
withdraw from the country.
While some Iraqis expressed resigna-
tion, others voiced fury at security
officials and Prime Minister Nouri
al-Maliki.
NEW YORK
Two workers escape flood
Two New York City construction
workers barely escaped drowning in an
elevator as storms dropped record
rainfall over the weekend on parts of
the nations Eastern half, washing out
roads in New Jersey and closing a
hospital in Ohio.
One of the workers, cabinetmaker Ed
Tyler, of Milltown, N.J., told The Asso-
ciated Press on Monday that he and
colleague Wendell Amaker, of Roselle,
N.J., were happy to be alive after their
ordeal.
The storm dropped nearly 8 inches
of rain on New York Citys Kennedy
Airport on Sunday and nearly 5 in
Philadelphia, setting city records for
any day.
In most spots, the effects were bad
but not disastrous sometimes nar-
rowly so, like on New York Citys
Staten Island, where Tyler and Amaker
were moving materials for a senior
center being built.
WASHINGTON
Pressure put on Syria
The U.S. says it is rallying nations to
sever financial ties to Syria because
foreign money is still helping to sup-
port President Bashar Assads regime.
The approach reflects the U.S. limit-
ed leverage as Syria continues a crack-
down on protesters, and the Obama
administrations unwillingness to enter-
tain military options.
State Department spokeswoman
Victoria Nuland said Monday that
countries are still putting money into
Syrian coffers. She says the U.S. wants
global sanctions to cut off funding.
Some diplomatic progress took place
Monday when Turkey demanded a halt
to the violence. Turkey is threatening
unspecified steps if bloodshed contin-
ues. Turkey is a key NATO ally of the
U.S. and was once a close partner of
Syria.

Pair foiled by stick shift
A getaway attempt by a couple on

The man and woman then tried to
break into a locked home before police
tackled the unarmed woman, and her
partner, who was armed with a hand-
gun, quickly surrendered.
Roy and Jessica Fritts of Union, Ore.,
were arrested Sunday in Echo, Utah,
for investigation of shooting a traveling
companion, Sweetwater County sher-
iffs Detective Dick Blust Jr., said.
Roy Fritts, 33, also is wanted in Ore-
gon after fleeing from supervised pris-
on release on two counts of attempted
aggravated murder.

WASHINGTON The U.S. suspects
that Pakistan retaliated for the humiliat-
ing American raid that killed Osama bin
Laden by allowing the Chinese military
to view the wreckage of a radar-evading
helicopter used in the mission.
Pakistan suggested it would do just
that within days of the raid May 2 that
prompted celebrations in the U.S. but an-
ger and embarrassment in Islamabad.
Three senior U.S. defense officials and
a counterterrorismofficial stressed Mon-
day that while they suspect Pakistan
probably followed through on the veiled
threat, they have no evidence it did.
A Pakistan official denied any technol-
ogy was shared with China. Speaking on
condition of anonymity to discuss intelli-
gence, the official added that Pakistan
was aware the U.S. had bin Ladens com-
pound and the helicopter wreckage un-
der round-the-clocksurveillance after the
raid, so it would knowif foreign technical
experts had been allowed to examine it.
The stealth rotor technology was not
that revolutionary, the Pakistan official
said, adding that the only value of the hel-
icopter was the lightweight metal used in
its construction.
The helicopter was one of two modi-
fied Black Hawks that defense experts
said evidently used radar-evading tech-
nologies plus noise and heat suppression
devices to slip across the Afghan-Pakis-
tan border, avoid detection by Pakistani
air defenses and deliver two dozen Navy
SEALs into the hiding place of the al-Qai-
da leader.
One of the choppers crash landed dur-
ing the mission. Before leaving with bin
Ladens corpse, commandos blew up the
main body of the chopper.
Photos of the wreckage with the tail
still visible flashed around the world,
drawing immediate chatter among de-
fense experts who noticed it appeared to
have previously undisclosed technology.
Pakistan eventually allowed the U.S. to
retrieve the wreckage. But before that,
Pakistan allowed Chinese military engi-
neers to photograph it and to take sam-
ples of the choppers special stealth
skin, the international business newspa-
per Financial Times reported Sunday.

HARRISBURGThe Corbett
administration on Monday de-
fended its policies on renewable
energy and conservation, and
said it is not putting aside those
efforts in favor of Pennsylvanias
booming natural gas industry.
The administration made the
statements in response to a Pitts-
burgh Post-Ga-
zette story that
said the admin-
istration is
stripping em-
ployees fromre-
newable energy
and conserva-
tion programs.
The newspa-
per also reported that the admin-
istration is forbidding state exec-
utive agencies from signing
clean-energy contracts.
The programs were empha-
sized by previous governors, but
the Corbett administration says
thechanges aremerelypart of the
new approach by Gov. Tom Cor-
betts energy executive, Patrick
Henderson, it said.
Gov. Corbett understands the
critical importance of all energy
resources, including renewables,
both to our economy and our
quality of life, Henderson wrote
in a letter Monday responding to
the Post-Gazette story. He re-
mains committed to policies
which respect taxpayer dollars
and grow all our energy industri-
es in a sustainable manner.
Henderson said the Office of
Energy and Technology Deploy-
ment in the state Department of
Environmental Protection was
renamed, not disbanded, and he
said the Guaranteed Energy Sav-
ings Act program, which helps
school districts and local govern-
ments invest in energy conserva-
tion project, is under review.
The office that administers the
Guaranteed Energy Savings Act
programis one of several that lost
employees, the Post-Gazette re-
ported.
Rep. William Adolph, R-Dela-
ware, who wrote the Energy Sav-
ings Act, is talkingtoCorbetts of-
fice about how the program will
be administered, said Adolphs
spokesman, Mike Stoll.
Were still working with the
administration to understand its
position on the program, Stoll
told the Post-Gazette. Its saying
this is part of a consolidation of
programs, but that doesnt
change the requirements of the
act.
Christina Simeone, director of
the Energy Center for environ-
mental advocacy group PennFu-
ture, and formerly the special as-
sistant for energy and climate at
the DEP, told the Post-Gazette
she worries that changes in pol-
icy and reductions in staff are
crippling.

MOGADISHU, Somalia
Sacks of grain, peanut butter
snacks and other food staples
meant for starving Somalis are
being stolen and sold in mar-
kets, an Associated Press inves-
tigation has found, raising con-
cerns that thieving business-
men are undermining interna-
tional famine relief efforts in
this nearly lawless country.
The U.N.s World Food Pro-
gram acknowledged for the
first time that it has been inves-
tigating food theft in Somalia
for two months. The WFP
strongly condemned any diver-
sion of even the smallest
amount of food from starving
and vulnerable Somalis.
Underscoring the perilous
security throughout the food
distribution chain, donated
food is not even safe once it has
been given to the hungry in the
makeshift camps around the
capital of Mogadishu.
Families at the large, govern-
ment-run Badbado camp,
where several aid groups dis-
tribute food, said they were of-
ten forced to hand back aid af-
ter journalists had taken pho-
tos of them with it.
They tell us they will keep it
for us and force us to give them
our food, said refugee Halima
Sheikh Abdi. We cant refuse
to cooperate because if we do,
they will force us out of the
camp, and then you dont know
what to do and eat. Its hap-
penedto many people already.
The U.N. says more than 3.2
million Somalis nearly half
the populationneedfoodaid
after a severe drought that has
been complicated by Somalias
long-running war.
More than 450,000 Somalis
live in famine zones controlled
by al-Qaida-linked militants,
where aid is difficult to deliver.
The U.S. says 29,000 Somali
children under age 5 already
have died.
International officials have
long expected some of the food
aid pouring into Somalia to dis-
appear. But the sheer scale of
the theft calls into question the
aid groups ability to reach the
starving.
It also raises concerns about
the ability of aid agencies and
the Somali government to fight
corruption, and whether di-
verted aid is fueling Somalias
20-year civil war.

ZAWIYA, Libya Libyas rebels
threatened to isolate Tripoli by blocking
key supply routes and cutting oil pipe-
lines on Monday after a dramatic week-
end advance put them in the strongest
position since the 6-month-old civil war
began to attack Moammar Gadhafis
stronghold.
In Washington, the Obama administra-
tion said the U.S. was encouraged by the
rebel advances and hoped they had bro-
ken a monthslong stalemate with Gadha-
fis forces.
We are closing the roads for Gadhafi
so there is no way for him to bring any-
thing to Tripoli, a rebel field command-
er, Jumma Dardira, told The Associated
Press.
The rebels push into the strategic city
of Zawiya on Saturday brought them
within 30 miles of Tripoli, the closest
they have ever gotten. After three days of
fiercebattles for thecityof 200,000onthe
Mediterranean coast, rebel commanders
saidtheycontrolledthesouthandwest of
the city and were fighting for the refiner-
ies. Oil-rich Libyas only functioning re-
fineries are in Zawiya.
Nuri el-Bouaisi, an oil production engi-
neer in the city, said rebels had cut off
pipelines that transport gasoline and die-
sel fuel to Tripoli.
We shut down all four pipelines to Tri-
poli, said el-Bouaisi, whose claim could
not be verified.
The rebels are also determined to cut
key supply routes to Tripoli fromthe Ras
Ajdir border crossing with Tunisia in the
west and from the south, where Libya
borders Chad and Niger. These are crit-
ical lifelines with NATO imposing a no-
fly zone over the country.
Over the past two days, a number of re-
bel officials have claimed that they either
cut or were close to cutting those two
routes. However that could not be imme-
diately confirmed.
In addition to gaining a foothold in Za-
wiya, the rebels claimed Sunday to have
taken two towns near Tripoli on those
key supply roads.

Judge Tina Polachek Gartley.
Prosecutors withdrew five
related charges against Bel-
castro, including reckless en-
dangerment.
Polachek Gartley said Bel-
castro will be sentenced on Oct.
28.
According to court papers, in
January 2010, Nick Biros told
police he went to the American
Legion baseball field to meet his
ex-girlfriend. When he arrived,
his ex-girlfriend was not there,
Biros told police, but several
individuals, including Belcastro
were, and that they assaulted
him.
Biros said one of the individu-
als gave Belcastro a knife, and
that Belcastro began stabbing
Biros with it. Biros said he re-
ceived injuries to his right hand,
according to court papers.
WILKES-BARRE -- The trial
of a city man on charges he
exposed himself to a young girl
has been continued to October.
Flor Daniel Pabon, 32, of
South Franklin Street, will face
charges of indecent exposure
and corruption of a minor on
Oct. 17, Luzerne County Judge
Tina Polachek Gartley said.
Pabons attorney, Christopher
ODonnell, requested the contin-
uance, as attorneys are still
awaiting evidence and requests
are pending.
Assistant District Attorney
Maureen Collins is prosecuting
the case.
According to court papers, on
July 21, 2010, the mother of a
10-year-old girl told police that
her daughter told her Pabon
exposed himself to her and
showed her a pornographic
video.
The girl said the incidents
occurred at a Courtright Street,
Wilkes-Barre, home and at a
home in Newark, N.J.
COURT BRIEFS
SHAMOKIN A pilot and
his passenger have retraced the
last 60 miles of United Airlines
Flight 93, the hijacked jetliner
that crashed into a southwest-
ern Pennsylvania field on Sept.
11, 2001.
Tim Ross made the flight
with Greg Rhodes of Sunbury.
Their 400-mile round trip be-
gan at Northumberland County
Airport about 7:30 a.m. Satur-
day and ended six hours later.
Ross, 43, said he got goose
bumps when he flew his Cessna
172 Skyhawk toward the crash
site. Without a doubt, it was a
somber moment, he told The
Daily Item of Sunbury.
Rhodes, 61, said the crash site
and memorial are much larger
than he expected.
The part that brought me
back to this (trip) is that there
is a lot less publicity about
Shanksville because of New
York City and the Pentagon,
Rhodes said. Thats understan-
dable. There were a lot more ca-
sualties there.
He also lauded the heroism
and bravery of the people
aboard Flight 93.
It gave me a feeling of sad-
ness in 2001, but also hope that
there are people willing to do
it, he said.
Terrorists likely wanted to
crash Flight 93 into the White
House or Capitol building but
the jet was downed near
Shanksville as passengers
fought back. Forty passengers
and crew were killed.

$10,000 bets Hughes made with
Cordaro one regarding the out-
come of a college football game,
the other regarding whether the
county would succeed in selling
the Montage Mountain ski resort.
That evidencewas keytoCorda-
ros defense because it explained
some of the checks Hughes had
written to Cordaro. It also offered
further impeachment of Hughes
credibility.
The defense also raised several
other issues, includingCaputos re-
fusal to allowCordaro to call other
vendors whodidbusiness withthe
county who would testify they
were never extorted.
Federal prosecutors will have an
opportunitytoreplytothemotion.
Caputowill issue a rulingat a later
date.

ry Bossert countered that the
mainreasongas isnt beingsoldin
Pennsylvania is a lack of pipelines
to get it to consumers. He also
said his company has no problem
with a reasonable severance tax.
UGI Vice President of Govern-
ment Affairs Michael Love noted
natural gas is the only energy
source for which the price has
gone down since 2007. He also ar-
guedthat manygreeninitiatives
are bolstered by natural gas, from
cleaner air to more efficient pro-
duction of electricity.
Wilkes geology professor Brian
Redmond warned that the hy-
draulic fracturing or fracking
process used to free gas from the
shale produces more thana riskof
methane in water it can also re-
lease methane and radon into the
air. Methane, in turn, can re-
duce other dangerous elements,
breaking them into smaller parti-
cles that canthenleachintowater
and air.
Redmond also offered a source
for water used in fracking: drain-
age for abandoned coal shafts.
While highly acidic upon first re-
achingthesurface, therearepools
wheremost of theacidhas filtered
out.
B.F. Environmental Consult-
ants owner Brian Oramcalled for
monitoring of air and water qual-
ity before drilling begins to make
it easier to measure the impact,
and during drilling so companies
can more quickly react if a prob-
lem is detected.
Healsocalledfor morerigorous
clean-upprotocols, citingDimock
Township, where methane was
found in drinking wells.
The clean-up plan in Dimock
is to let the methane outgas
through private wells, he said.
Wilkes biology professor Ken-
neth Klemow detailed contradic-
tory studies about whether me-
thane released in gas production
made natural gas a bigger green-
house gas culprit than coal. Gas
would be clearly superior if com-
panies started trapping escaping
methane, which could be sold.
Klemow urged the legislators
tobringmorescienceintothenat-
ural gas debate.
If we dont do that, the rest of
the discussion is just going to be
arbitrary, he said.

NEW YORK Greenwich,
Conn., best knownfor hedge-fund
and banking millionaires, is now
earning a reputation for another
potentially treacherous popula-
tion mountain lions.
After more than 100 years with
nothing but news of high-bred
dogs and people with names like
Winthrop, Bush and Cohen,
Greenwich has now had several
reports of mountain lions roam-
ing its tony quarters.
In late spring there were three
separate sightings in Greenwich,
andthenawildmountainlionwas
killed by an SUV on a highway 37
miles north in the New Haven
suburb of Milford.
The Hartford Courant reported
that authorities were stunned
when DNA testing showed that
the animal had probably traveled
1,500 miles fromSouth Dakota to
Connecticut, an unprecedented
distance for that type of animal.
Sincethen, thelocal policehave
fielded numerous reports of
mountain lion sightings in Green-
wich. Last week, two residents of
a gated community adjacent to a
wildlife preserve reported seeing
one.
This time, officials warned the
locals to keep an eye on their chil-
dren and dogs and to be extra-
cautious walking at dawn and
dusk when the wild animals
might be particularly active.
As for the cat killedonthe high-
way, no one quite understands
how he ended up so far from the
Black Hills of South Dakota.
A necropsy showed that the
lean, 140-pound male was 2 to 4
years old, had an empty stomach
and most likely had never spent
time in captivity, according to the
state environmental protection
agency. His travels were well doc-
umented through sightings in
Minnesota and Wisconsin; biolo-
gists speculate that he later wan-
dered through southern Ontario
and New York before reaching
Connecticut.
Connecticuts Department of
Energy and Environmental Pro-
tection maintains that despite a
dozenor so sightings a year, there
is no evidence of a native moun-
tain lion population in Connecti-
cut. Officials are concerned that
the heightened focus on the dead
animal maybestirringlocal imag-
inations to mistake garden-va-
riety bobcats, coyotes and dogs
for mountain lions.
Nicknamed the St. Croix when
he was seen wandering Wiscon-
sin, thecat was thefirst confirmed
mountain lion in the state of Con-
necticut since the 1880s.

MIAMI Newly declassified
U.S. documents showa CIAoper-
ative accidentally fired on friend-
ly pilots during the 1961 Bay of
Pigs invasion of Cuba.
The B-26bombers flownbythe
Cuban exiles were disguised to
look like Cuban military planes,
but the ruse worked too well, the
documents indicated. It was not
clear, though, if anyone was hurt.
The documents also showU.S.
officials authorizedlimiteduse of
napalmon military targets and to
protect the invasions beachhead
area.
Earlier this month, the U.S.
made public all but one of five top
secret volumes covering the
CIAs official history of the failed
attack on Fidel Castros fledgling
government. The move came in
response to a lawsuit filed in
April by the independent, Wash-
ington-based National Security
Archive. The nonprofit research
group has sought for years to de-
classify all five volumes on the in-
vasion.
The Archive posted more of
the documents on its website
Monday.
In them, CIA operative Grays-
ton Lynch, who was in charge of
guns aboard one of the landing
craft that remained off the Cuban
coast during the invasion, re-
called warning the exile pilots to
tostayawayfromus, becausewe
couldnt tell them from the Cas-
tro planes.
He said the B-26 bombers
failed to heed his warning.
We ended up shooting at two
or three of them, he said, ex-
plaining, our planes were a little
nosey, and they wanted to take a
look at the action.
In the report, two U.S. pilots
described dropping bombs and
napalm on Cuban troops that
left the convoy badly messed
up.
Initially, officials hesitated to
use napalm because it would
cause concern and public outcry,
the documents indicated. But
bytheseconddayof fighting, that
notion had gone by the board in
favor of anything that might re-
verse the situation in Cuba in fa-
vor of the (exile) Brigade forces.
The invasion by CIA-trained
Cuban exiles was a pivotal mo-
ment in U.S.-Cuba relations and
has become somethingof a what
not to do case study in U.S. cov-
ert actions.
We are one step closer to hav-
ing a complete record in the
worst debacle of U.S. clandestine
operations, saidPeter Kornbluh,
who heads the Archives Cuba
project. He vowed to continue
pressing the government to re-
lease the fifth volume.
About 1,300 exiles landed in
Cuba on April 17, 1961. Two days
earlier, theexilepilots hadhelped
destroy portions of Cubas small
air force, but Castro had enough
planes remaining to take out
their supplyships. Nearly300Cu-
ban and exile fighters were killed
in the invasion. A few captured
exiles were executed and others
were held prisoner for years.
Most of the more than 1,200 cap-
turedexiles werereleasedbyCas-
tro a year later in an exchange
brokered by the Kennedy admin-
istration.

insight into the failed 1961

CANNON FALLS, Minn.
Hitting back against an embold-
ened GOP, President Barack
Obama launched a rare direct at-
tack Monday on the Republican
presidential field, criticizing his
potential 2012 rivals for their
blanket oppositiontoany deficit-
cutting compromise involving
new taxes.
Thats just not common
sense, Obama told the crowd at
a town hall-style meeting in Can-
non Falls, Minn., as he kicked off
a three-day bus tour through
Minnesota, Iowa and Illinois.
You need to take a balanced
approach, he insisted.
Obama recalled a moment in
last weeks GOP presidential de-
bate when all eight of the candi-
dates said they would refuse to
support a deal with tax increas-
es, even if tax revenues were out-
weighed 10-to-1 by spending
cuts.
Obama didnt mention any of
the candidates by name, and
prefacedthe remark by saying, I
know its not election season
yet.
But his comment underscored
that electionseasonis indeedun-
der way. The bus tour, although
an official White House event
rather than a campaign swing,
takes Obama through three
states he won in 2008 but where
he now needs to shore up his
standing.
In Iowa, Obama returns to a
state that handed him a key vic-
tory over Democratic rival Hill-
ary Rodham Clinton in their
nomination fight but where Re-
publicans have now been blan-
keting the state in preparation
for its first-in-the-nation caucus-
es, attacking the president at ev-
ery turn. The bus tour comes on
the heels of Republican Michele
Bachmanns weekend victory in
the Iowa Straw Poll and Texas
Gov. Rick Perrys contest-rat-
tling entrance into the race.
It also comes after the presi-
dent spent much of the summer
holed up in the nations capital
enmeshed in bitter, partisan ne-
gotiations on the debt crisis that
cratered his approval ratings and
those of Congress amid a falter-
ing economy and high unem-
ployment.
Later in the town-hall meet-
ing, Obama got a question on his
signature health care law, and
took a hard shot at Mitt Romney,
a GOP front-runner who has had
to defend implementing a health
care plan while governor of Mas-
sachusetts thats similar to the
federal version.
Youve got a governor whos
running for president right now
who instituted the exact same
thing in Massachusetts, Obama
said, referring to a central com-
ponent of his law the require-
ment for nearly everyone to car-
ry health insurance.
This used to be a Republican
idea, Obama said. Its like sud-
denly they got amnesia.
The so-called individual man-
date in Obamas health care law
was struck down by a federal ap-
peals court last week but Obama
expressed confidence that the
Supreme Court ultimately
would uphold it if justices follow
existing law and precedent. If
not, he said, well have to man-
age that when it happens.
Inresponse toa question, Oba-
ma also took the chance to coun-
ter the anti-government stance
embraced by the tea party and
largely by the Republican presi-
dential field.
He noted that although gov-
ernment doesnt do everything
well, it is responsible for sending
a man to the moon and for the
military defending the country,
among other things.
When you go to the National
Parks and those folks in the hats,
thats government, Obama said.
As frustrated as you are about
politics dont buy into this no-
tion that somehow government
is whats holding us back, he
said.
Eager to get out of Washing-
ton, Obama struck a casual tone
as he spoke to a crowd gathered
in a picturesque park on the
banks of theCannonRiver, ditch-
ing his suit and tie for rolled-up
sleeves and khakis for the open-
air event.
People asked him about edu-
cation, health care, broadband
cableandthecost of prescription
drugs.

to come up
with $1.5 tril-
lion in savings
over a decade.
Failure would
have brutal im-
plications for
hundreds of
thousands
workers back home and raise the
potential of political peril for the
committees 12.
I think we all have very good
reasons to try to prevent the au-
tomatic cuts, Toomey told re-
porters last week when pressed
about the impact on Pennsylva-
nias defense industry. That is
not the optimal outcome here,
the much better outcome would
be a successful product fromthis
committee.
The panel has until Thanks-
giving to come up with recom-
mendations. If they deadlock or
if Congress rejects their propos-
al, $1.2 trillion in automatic,
across-the-board cuts kick in. Up
to $500 billion would hit the
Pentagon.
Those cuts, starting in 2013,
would be in addition to the $350
billion, 10-year reduction al-
ready dictated by the debt-limit
bill approved by Congress and
signed into law by President Ba-
rack Obama this month.
Not surprisingly, Defense Sec-
retary Leon Panetta has de-
scribed the automatic cuts as
the doomsday mechanism.
Hes warned that the prospect of
nearly $1 trillion in reductions
over a decade would seriously
undermine the militarys ability
to protect the United States.
For the Pentagon, were talk-
ing about cuts of such magni-
tude that everything is reduced
to some degree, said Loren
Thompson, a defense analyst at
the Lexington Institute, a think
tank. At that rate, youre elim-
inating the next generation of
weapons.
WASHINGTON For the
dozen lawmakers tasked with
producing a deficit-cutting plan,
the threatened doomsday de-
fense cuts hit close to home.
The six Republicans and six
Democrats represent states
where the biggest military con-
tractors Lockheed Martin,
General Dynamics Corp., Rayth-
eon Co. and Boeing Co. build
missiles, aircraft, jet fighters and
tanks while employing tens of
thousands of workers.
The potential for $500 billion
more in defense cuts could force
the Pentagon to cancel or scale
back multibillion-dollar weap-
ons programs. That could trans-
late into significant layoffs in a
fragile economy, generate mil-
lions less in tax revenues for lo-
cal governments and upend lu-
crative company contracts with
foreign nations.
The cuts could hammer Ever-
ett, Wash., where some of the
30,000 Boeing employees are
working on giant airborne re-
fueling tankers for the Air Force,
or Amarillo, Texas, where 1,100
Bell Helicopter Textron workers
assemble the fuselage, wings,
engines and transmissions for
the V-22 Osprey tilt-rotor air-
craft.
Billions in defense cuts would
be a blow to the hundreds work-
ing on upgrades to the Abrams
tank for General Dynamics in Li-
ma, Ohio, or the employees of
BAE Systems in Pennsylvania.
For committee members such
as Sens. Patty Murray, D-Wash.,
Rob Portman, R-Ohio, and Pat
Toomey, R-Zionsville, the threat
of Pentagon cuts is an incentive

The executive director of the Luzerne County Flood
Protection Authority recently outlined a new
sponsorship program at the River Common in Wilkes-Barre, where
patrons can purchase small placards for benches and other fixtures for
a tax-deductible contribution of $2,500. Proceeds will offset the cost of
providing entertainment at the venue. For details, call 714-1570.
Council candidate vows
to stand by his word
O
n the national level, the dysfunctional
two-party system has chosen the path
of least resistance, avoiding a default
in a lose-lose compromise that history tells
us probably will lead us to a hyperinfla-
tionary depression. I have never felt better
in my life about having left the Repub-
licans and Democrats years ago.
Back on the home front, the debt sit-
uation in Luzerne County is in no better
shape; in fact, worse, due to the lack of a
printing press to inflate away our debt and
postpone the inevitable. When in a hole, to
get out, one must first stop digging.
As your Luzerne County Council mem-
ber, I will never approve of any further
borrowing.
I am a taxpayer advocate. I will never
approve of any tax increase or new fees to
bring in more revenue during my term.
In future writings, I will outline ways to
save money to avoid tax hikes and begin to
pay down debt. Attrition will be the pre-
ferred means of reducing overstaffing.
Some layoffs might be necessary. I have
zero tolerance for nepotism and cronyism.
I advocate a nationwide search for the
most qualified candidate for manager, with
a proven track record of leadership, man-
agement, finance and accounting skills.
There is almost no situation in which I
would approve of local talent for this job,
due to the likelihood of political ties to the
courthouse. I am fully aware of the poten-
tial drawbacks regarding releasing names
of candidates for manager to the public.
Transparency trumps the drawdown to the
pool of candidates. Like a spouse that has
been abused, the residents of this county
are damaged goods and it might take a
long time, if ever, to regain their trust in
county government. I will stand by my
word.
If the same old voters vote for the same
old parties, we can expect some of the
same old results regardless of the form of
government. I implore every eligible resi-
dent of Luzerne County to vote this Nov. 8.

These are definitely not
our forefathers senators
O
nce upon a time, U.S. senators were
appointed by state legislatures. The
Senate members represented individu-
al states, holding the states interest above
a single political partys special interest.
Senators could and were routinely re-
called. This all began to degrade with the
17th Amendment and the progressive
policies of President Woodrow Wilson.
Now, having a six-year term and being
able to run for president without resigning,
members of this millionaires club can run
for president on the taxpayers dime
twice. Barack Obama never even finished
his term.
Former Sen. Arlen Specter s only loyalty
was to himself, and he was drubbed. Sen.
Bob Caseys only loyalty seemingly is to
his party. Almost at his sixth year, after
being voted in on the recognition of his
fathers name, Casey has done little but
play the toady to the president.
Pennsylvania and the nation are facing a
coming tribulation. Casey and his bunch,
along with the president, couldnt run a
parking lot.

K
AS I was leaving my com-
puter Thursday evening,
an item in my Facebook
news feed stopped me on
a dime.
While the full details
did not come out until
later, the incident involved the shooting
death of Bethlehem-area police Officer
Robert Lasso, who was killed while re-
sponding to a domestic incident. Ac-
cording to media reports, the primary
suspect in his killing is in custody, and
had been arrested several years ago by
Lasso on a drug paraphernalia charge.
Officer Lasso leaves behind a wife and
two children.
My thoughts and prayers go out to the
family, friends and co-workers of the
Freemansburg officer.
Since several of my friends work as
law enforcement officers, and I have
covered stories relating to law enforce-
ment for The Times Leader, I have taken
notice of an alarming number of inci-
dents involving the deaths of police
officers in the line of duty.
The statistics are chilling.
This year, Officer Lassos murder is
the 114th death of a law enforcement
officer in the United States, according to
the Officer Down Memorial Page, which
pays tribute to officers killed in the line
of duty. His passing is the 47th to come
by gunfire this year a 27 percent in-
crease from last year.
Hearing these statistics leaves me
asking how such tragic deaths can be
reduced. While there is no easy answer,
there are several initiatives that can
help stem the epidemic of violence
I grew up with a healthy dose of admi-
ration for police officers, and I always
have respected their authority. It is easy
for us to stress teaching such attitudes
to children and adolescents, both in
schools and at home. But more is need-
ed, and law enforcement agencies can
help in this regard.
Earlier this month, my father was one
of 31 Scranton residents to complete the
Citizens Police Academy, a 12-week
outreach program that gives city resi-
dents an up-close look at police work.
With corporate sponsorship from GEI-
CO, residents explored every aspect of
police operations, culminating with a
ride-along in a police cruiser. Scranton
Police Chief Dan Duffy told me that he
plans to hold more classes in the future,
all of it at minimal cost to his depart-
ment.
Programs such as the Citizens Police
Academy, while challenging in the face
of shrinking budgets, are more valuable
than we can calculate. It is through
these efforts that the public can get a
true appreciation of the work done by
law enforcement. Then, respect for our
police officers can germinate where it
matters most with residents and busi-
ness owners.
That can result in safer conditions for
law enforcement, and by extension,
safer living conditions in our communi-
ties.

OR ANYONE who re-
membersthearomaof a
grade-school classroom
on a hot day, this will
come as no surprise: Fawaz Al-
mansour, a doctoral candidate in
the Department of Nutritional
Sciences at theUniversityof Tex-
as-Austin, reports that morethan
90 percent of the lunches carried
by preschoolers had reached un-
safe temperatures long before
lunchtime.
More than 90 percent of per-
ishable items were at an unac-
ceptable temperature accord-
ing to (U.S. Department of Agri-
culture) guidelines anhour and
a half before lunch, Almansour
and his colleagues report at the
online site of the journal Pediat-
rics.
The researchers did field stud-
ies on the lunches of 700 pre-
schoolersat nineTexaschildcare
centers. They used non-contact
temperature guns. Fewer than 2
percent of lunches with perisha-
bleitems werefoundtobeat safe
temperatures. TheUSDArecom-
mends storage at less than40de-
greesFahrenheit; nothingshould

And heres the scariest part:
Refrigerators didnt help much.
Insulated containers actually in-
sulate the food fromthe refriger-
ator.
In our experience, some
moms solved this dilemma with
canned Vienna sausages, but we
wouldnt recommend that. Put
the lunch in a sack. Ask the
teacher to put the sack in the
fridge. On the off chance your
preschooler actually eats his
lunch, he should be OK.

OTHER OPINION: FOOD SAFETY
Beware whats hot
in school lunches
Q
UESTION: HAVE
there been times in
the past 12 months
when you did not
have enough money to buy
food that you or your family
needed?
For about one of every five
families with children in Lu-
zerne County, the answer ap-
parently is yes, according to
Thursdays report on food
hardship by the national advo-
cacy group Food Research and
Action Center.
Behind those numbers are
individuals who, whilenot con-
fronting the life-threatening
malnourishment afflicting
East Africa, struggle at times
to put adequate food on their
plates and in their bellies. Yes,
at times their refrigerators and
wallets look much the same:
empty. Yes, they sometimes
postpone paying other bills so
that they can pick up a fewgro-
ceries. Yes, they frequently re-
sort to feeding their kids dirt-
cheap cheeseburgers and fries
rather than more nutritious
fare.
Yes, the need for the wider
availability of healthy food per-
sists even in, or near, your
neighborhood. Even today.
Anne Marie McCawley, di-
rector of the St. Vincent de
Paul Kitchen, recently said she
might have to temporarily
close the Wilkes-Barre emer-
gency food pantry this week
due to a shortage of rations on
the shelves.
Cananythingbe done toalle-
viate the situation locally? Yes.
Area residents with the means
to donate food or money can
recognize the severity of the
problem, a perennial issue
made worse these days by tem-
porary conditions such as high
unemployment. Then, they
can give generously.
Likewise, youth groups re-
turning for a new school year
and civic clubs reorganizing af-
ter the summer lull can com-
mit this autumn to service pro-
jects benefiting local food pan-
tries: awareness-raising activ-
ities, food drives and
fundraisers.
Question: Have there been
times in the past 12 months
when you knew that people in
your community were hungry,
but you did nothing?
Your answer should be no.
Always no.

Liz Krewson of Edwardsville
stopped by the store Monday to
inquire about making a clothing
donation. Krewson brought her
11-year-old son, Hayden, with her
and she explained what had hap-
pened.
My mom is right, you respect
other peoples property, Hayden
said. You should care about their
feelings.
Liz Krewson stared at the
smashed window and said, Its
disgusting. This is a great pro-
gram that helps women get back
on their feet. I dont understand.
Armstrong said clothing dona-
tions can be brought to the store
on Wednesdays from10 a.m. to 6

She said the store was just get-

her program was making a differ-
ence inthe lives of a lot of women.
Her bills were getting paid, she
said.
This is a bigsetback, she said.
Armstrong said her program is
getting women off of the welfare
rolls and into meaningful employ-
ment. She said she keeps in touch
withher clients after theyget ajob
and they often come to the store
to give her updates.
She keeps track of them on a
computer in one corner of the
store Armstrong calls it her da-
ta center. Several racks of cloth-
ing many designer with labels
hang throughout the store, along
with purses, shoes and other ac-
cessories such as costume jewel-
ry.
Armstrong still has the rock
that was used to break her win-
dow, which is boarded up await-

three messages:

Why?

Armstrong said of the perpetra-
tors. This is our city our home-

A choice had to be made:
Comply with the law and spend
thousands of dollars on lead
testing that would likely put the
stores out of business or ignore
the lawand hope federal inspec-
tors dont pay a visit to their es-
tablishment for a compliance
check.
Many local stores toed the
linebythrowingawayitems that
they believedmight have leador
phthalates but did not pay to
have other items tested.
Over the past few years, the
U.S. Consumer Product Safety
Commission issued clarifica-
tions tothe way it wouldenforce
the law, but industry officials
saidthe lawwas still the lawand
it needed to be changed.
Jerry Balara, the areas Salva-
tion Army business administra-
tor, said while the laws intent
was good, I think there were
some things that needed to be
addressed. He said that while
he hasnt seen the final piece of
legislation, fromwhat heknows,
theres no more gray area.
Once Congress voted earlier
this month to repeal or amend
portions of the law and Presi-
dent Barack Obama signed it in-
to law last Friday, the issue was
resolved.
The law made me a little
more careful about things like
that, Morgan said, but noted
that the law was overkill. She
said items such as books, wood-
en toys and stuffed animals had
no place being included.
The 29-page bill signed into
law on Friday has provisions to
exclude used childrens prod-
ucts fromthe lead limit with the
exception of childrens metal
jewelry and any childrens prod-
uct that the donating party or
the seller has actual knowledge
of the product being in violation
of the lead limits. The National
Association of Resale Profes-
sionals lauded the congression-
al action.
Resale professionals have al-
ways been strong advocates for
product safety and remain com-
mitted to the protection of our
nations children, said Adele
Meyer, the associations execu-
tive director. It is a relief and
victory to see some common
sense applied to the CPSIA.
The bill was sponsored by
U.S. Rep. Mary Bono Mack, D-
Calif. She issued a statement af-
ter Obama signed it into law
that thanked her colleagues for
supporting the matter over-
whelmingly, with a 421-2 vote.
This lawstrikes a careful bal-
ance. Among other things, it
gives the Consumer Product
Safety Commission the flexibil-
ity it needs to regulate based on
risk and not on arbitrary stan-
dards, Mack said. These
changes will significantly re-
duce the burdens imposed on
struggling businesses while
maintaining strong protections
for our children.

in 2008 and awarded Diana
$521,004 in damages. Caputo
later reduced the award to
$298,878, plus $62,283 in attor-
ney fees.
The state police appealed the
verdict, arguing that Oliphant
and Altavilla were entitled to
qualified immunity, which pro-
tects government employees if
they can show they had a rea-
sonable belief that there actions
were lawful and were not made
with the intent to violate a per-
sons constitutional rights.
In Dianas case, the defend-
ants maintained they believed
they were acting within the law
because the phone call was an
administrative action.
Oliphant had phoned Diana
to advise himhe was required to
return to work. Altavilla testi-
fied he directed Oliphant to use
a recorded line to protect Oli-
phant should there be a dis-
agreement regarding things
said during the call.
Caputo had rejected that de-
fense. The Third Circuit court
disagreed with his ruling.
In its opinion, filed earlier
this month, the court said the
evidence at trial supported Oli-
phant and Altavillas claims
that they reasonably believed
they were acting within an ex-
ception of the wiretap law.
The court noted that, at the
time of the call in 2003, various
courts had issued conflicting
rulings regarding the applica-
bility of the wire tap law in ad-
ministrative phone calls made
to one police officer fromanoth-
er on a recorded line. Given
that, the court reasoned that
Oliphant and Altavilla could
not have clear knowledge they
were violating Dianas rights.
The court overturned the ver-
dict and award of attorneys
fees, directing that judgment be
entered in favor of Oliphant and
Diana.

According to Jana L. Tidwell,
public affairs specialist for AAA
Mid-Atlantic, crude oil makes up
almost 70 percent of a gallon of
gas, which is why gas prices are
tied so closely to crude oil prices.
Whilegaspricesriselikearock-

fuel they will purchase in coming

as operators hold off on lowering

said.
If thepriceof crudeoil stabilizes
or continues to decline, motorists
should begin to feel some relief at
the pump in coming weeks, Tid-
well said.
While stocks and crude oil were
ona roller coaster ride of sorts last
week after the nations debt limit
controversy in Congress and the
downgrade of U.S. credit by Stan-
dard&Poors, gasoline prices con-
tinued on a downward trend.
The nations credit rating down-
grade that hammered financial
markets throughout the week
raised concerns of an economic
slowdown and, in turn, a drop in
oil demand, Tidwell said.
While the credit downgrade
has sparked turmoil and uncer-
tainty infinancial markets, a silver
lininghas emergedfor motorists
relief at the gas pumps, Tidwell
said.
Inthe last week, gas prices fell 9
centsper gallonnationally, andup-

areas, she said.
This weeks drop in crude oil
prices could trigger a gas price
dropof morethan40cents per gal-
lon from current levels. Should
this trend continue, post-Labor
Day gas prices could be in the
$3.25 to $3.50 per gallon range,

Warmer than normal Atlantic

driving the forecasts. Seven to 10

L
ong before she became an elite
triathlete who earned a chance
to represent the United States
in Beijing next month, Kelly Ciravo-
lo felt like a fish out of water.
Never mind the grueling and ex-
tended bike and running portions
that make up the sport. Since triath-
lons begin with a swim, Ciravolo
never dreamed her sports career
would ever get started.
Oh my God, that was a fluke,
Ciravolo laughed. I didnt do any-
thing athletic. Ever.
But in 2006, she popped into the
YMCA trying to learn how to better
tread water.
I was not a swimmer, still dont
consider myself a swimmer, Ciravo-
lo said. I met people doing swim
classes. They suggested I do a
triathlon.
If she was going to try such an
endeavor, the Wilkes-Barre Triathlon
made sense to Ciravolo. She grew
up in Kingston and lives in Shaver-
town while working for the law firm
Mahler, Lohin and Associates, so the
local girl decided to give the big
local race a try for her first foray
into a new sport.
Wilkes-Barre was my first triath-
lon, Ciravolo remembered. I had
no idea what I was doing. I did it
on a borrowed bike with sneakers
on.
It didnt take long before she was
sneaking past the competition.
Five years after her first triathlon
finish, it appears Ciravolos stardom
is just getting started.
Her strong summer of racing,
which included victory in Wilkes-
Barres womens field for the second
straight year, pushed Ciravolo to No.
19 in the national rankings this year
for the womens 30-32 age group.
That qualified her to compete as an
age grouper in the Dextro Energy
Triathlon ITU World Championship
Grand Final which will bring
triathletes from around the world to
Beijing on Sept. 10 and 11.
Im really excited, said Ciravolo,
32, who resides in the Back Moun-
tain with her husband, Scott, and
their daughter, Gemma. We have to
wear the same uniforms U.S. col-
ors. Apparently, theres a parade of
countries that well do. And the
course well do is part of the 2008
Olympic triathlon course.
Of course, she needed help to
make the trip. It was made possible
when she gained sponsorship from
Pride Mobility, Sickler Bike Shop,
Fleet Decal, Dr. Lauren Grossman,
Lehigh Construction and Cornell
Ironworks.
I feel like theyre behind me,
Ciravolo said. It is expensive. Just
to ship my bike is a couple hundred
dollars. Ive got to give it my all.
Shes doesnt give finishing the
course in China a second thought,
because Ciravolos been in so many
high-profile races around the country
over the past two years.
But the prospect of spending eight
days away from Gemma, whos
about to turn 2 and will stay with
Kellys mom, is weighing heavily on
Ciravolos mind.
Im having such anxiety, Ciravolo
said.
Almost as much as her first
plunge into Harveys Lake and the
sport of triathlon.
What better place to start doing
triathlons than out here, Ciravolo
said. This is a great race, such an
asset to the area. I would love to
get more and more people involved.
Because as Ciravolo proved, you
never know what youre capable
until you try.
People think they cant do it,
Ciravolo said.
If I can do it, anyone can.

PITTSBURGH Sidney Crosbys
summer vacation is almost over. Still,
theres no telling when the Pittsburgh
Penguins star will return to work.
General manager Ray Shero said
Monday the former MVP is still deal-
ing with concussion-like symptoms
and its too soon to know if Crosby
will be available when the Penguins
open camp next month.
Theres no expectation from me
that he wont be ready or he will be
ready, Shero said.
Crosby hasnt played in a game
since Jan. 5, missing the rest of the
regular season and
Pittsburghs first-
round playoff loss to
Tampa Bay as he
slowly recovered
from a concussion.
He said in April he
would be back for
training camp, but
with about a month to go before the
team reports, Shero wouldnt guaran-
tee No. 87 will be in uniform.
The 24-year-old Crosby has spent
the summer in Canada working out
on his own. Shero doesnt anticipate
Crosby returning to Pittsburgh until a
week before camp begins. Crosby will
undergo a thorough evaluation before
hes cleared to participate in full-con-
tact drills.
He wont be pushed to come back,
Shero said.
Though Shero acknowledged Cros-
by has dealt with lingering symptoms
off and on over the summer they
have not prevented him from shutting
down his workout program.
The good news is he continues to
work out, hes worked out hard during
the summer, Shero said. Well see
where we are come training camp.
Coach Dan Bylsma doesnt think
the team will need to treat Crosby
with kid gloves whenever hes clear-
ed. Bylsma doesnt anticipate holding
Crosby out of the preseason if his su-
perstar has been OKd by doctors.
I dont think when Sidney Crosby
is healthy and ready to go, hes not go-
ing to shy away from contact, nor is
he going to shy away from competi-
tion, Bylsma said. It would take
quite a bit to keep him out of getting
ready for the start of the regular sea-
son.
Crosby was in the midst of an MVP-
type season before the injury, amass-
ing 66 points (32 goals, 34 assists) in
41games. He sustained hits in consec-
utive games in early January before
being diagnosed with the concussion.

The snakebitten Ambrose, deprived
more than once of a NASCAR victory,
beat Brad Keselowski and Kyle Busch
on a two-lap dash to the checkered flag
Monday to win the rain-delayed Sprint
Cup race at Watkins Glen International.
It was his first victory in 105 starts in
NASCARs top series and atoned for a
slip-up a year ago on the road course at
Sonoma, when he stalled his car under
cautionwhile leading withsix laps to go
and finished sixth.
Ive triedfor 261/27years, Ambrose
said. Were going to onward and up-
ward from here. Its a proud day.
Ambrose has won all three Nation-

and in three Cup starts here, hes
notched one second and two thirds, in-
cluding an impressive drive fromlast to
third in 2008.

M A J O R L E A G U E B A S E B A L L
DETROIT Jim Thome
hit his 600th home run an
inning after he hit No. 599 to
help the Minnesota Twins
outslug the Detroit Tigers 9-6
on Monday night.
Thome became the eighth
major league player to reach
600, hitting a three-run shot
off Daniel Schlereth in the
seventh inning to give Minne-
sota a 9-5 lead.
An inning earlier, Thome
reached 599 with a two-run
homer off Rick Porcello (11-8)
that broke a 3-all tie.
Thome received a standing
ovation from the Detroit
crowd as he rounded the
bases after his milestone
homer. His achievement over-
shadowed a solo shot in the
first inning by Detroits Del-
mon Young, who had been
traded from the Twins to the
Tigers earlier Monday.
Francisco Liriano (8-9) al-
lowed five runs in six innings.
Joe Nathan earned his 10th
save.
Both of Thomes homers
were hit to the opposite field.
When No. 600 cleared the
fence in left, Thome raised
his right fist as he went
around first base, and the
crowd in Detroit came to its
feet to applaud him.
The Tigers posted a con-
gratulatory message on the
scoreboard, and the Twins
came out of the dugout to
greet him at home plate.
Before Mondays game,
Thome hadnt homered since
Aug. 4.
Thomes accomplishment
capped a memorable day for
these AL Central rivals. Dur-
ing the afternoon, the Twins
traded Young to the Tigers
for a minor league pitcher
and a player to be named.
Young homered in his first
at-bat for Detroit, and Alex
Avila finished a homer shy of
the cycle, but the Tigers
couldnt overcome an uneven
performance on the mound
and in the field.
They couldnt handle
Thome, either. After Jason
Kubel started the sixth with a
single, Thome hit a drive off
Porcello an estimated 412 feet
over the fence in left-center.
Ben Revere added an RBI
triple later in the inning
and was thrown out trying for
an inside-the-park homer.
Avila hit an RBI triple in
the bottom half, then scored
on a sacrifice fly, but Thome
was just getting started.
Schlereth walked two hit-
ters and struck out two be-
fore Thome came to the
plate. He took another big
cut with his powerful left-
handed swing and sent a
towering fly to left.
For a moment, it appeared
Young might have a chance
to make a play on the ball,
but he could only watch as
his former teammates hit
disappeared over the fence.
Yankees 7, Royals 4
KANSAS CITY, Mo.
Derek Jeter had three hits
and drove in three runs, in-
cluding two with a go-ahead
triple in the sixth inning, and
struggling A.J. Burnett finally
won a game in August for the
New York Yankees in their
victory over the Kansas City
Royals.
Burnett (9-9) scattered 10
singles and a walk over 5 2-3
innings, but they only result-
ed in three runs. The right-
hander had been winless in
13 starts in August since sign-
ing a five-year, $82.5 million
deal with New York, going
0-8 with a 7.18 ERA. He even
lost his last August start
while still a member of the
Toronto Blue Jays in 2008.
Mariano Rivera wrapped up
the victory, pitching a perfect
ninth for his 31st save.
NATIONAL LEAGUE
Pirates 6, Cardinals 2
PITTSBURGH Ryan
Doumit went 4 for 4 and hit
a tiebreaking three-run home
run to lift the Pittsburgh
Pirates to a victory over the
St. Louis Cardinals on Mon-
day night.
Doumits homer in the
fourth inning off Jake West-
brook (9-7) snapped a 1-1 tie
and helped Pittsburgh break
its three-game losing streak.
The switch-hitting catcher
matched a career high with
his sixth four-hit game.
St. Louis, which had won
three of its last four, fell 5
1
2
games behind Milwaukee in
the NL Central. The Brewers
were hosting the Los Angeles
Dodgers on Monday night.
Xavier Paul, who homered,
and Neil Walker each had two
hits for the Pirates, and
James McDonald (8-6)
pitched 5 2-3 uneven innings
to end his three-start winless
streak. McDonald allowed two
runs and six hits while walk-
ing two and striking out four.
The Cardinals Ryan The-
riot had three hits and Matt
Holliday doubled twice, in-
cluding the 200th of his ca-
reer.
Westbrook gave up five
runs, four earned, and nine
hits in 5 2-3 innings while
walking one and striking out
three.
Jose Veras got what was
likely the biggest out of the
game for Pittsburgh when he
relieved Daniel McCutchen in
the seventh. With two outs
and runners on first and sec-
ond with a 5-2 lead, Veras got
Albert Pujols to look at a
called third strike on a curve-
ball on the inside corner.
Pujols went 1 for 4 with a
single one night after taking
over the NL home run lead
with 29. He is looking to hit
30 homers for the 11th con-
secutive season.
Paul opened the scoring
when he led off the bottom of
the first inning with his sec-
ond home run of the season
and third of his career.
Braves 5, Giants 4
ATLANTA Freddie Free-
man capped a three-run rally
against San Francisco closer
Brian Wilson in the ninth
with a two-run single to lift
the Atlanta Braves to a win
over the Giants.
Wilson (6-4) couldnt hold a
4-2 lead. He gave up three
hits and two walks in the
ninth for his fifth blown save
in 40 chances.
Nate Schierholtz snapped a
2-2 tie with his homer to
right in the sixth. Mike Fon-
tenot, in the game when Pa-
blo Sandoval left with a foot
injury in the first inning,
added an eighth-inning homer
off Tim Hudson.
The Braves rallied in the
Giants first return to Atlanta
since beating Atlanta in the
2010 NL division series.
The Braves stretched their
lead to five games over San
Francisco in the NL wild-card
race. The Giants began the
night two games behind first-
place Arizona in the NL West.
Brewers 3, Dodgers 0
MILWAUKEE Randy
Wolf tossed eight effective
innings and the Milwaukee
Brewers turned a triple play
as part of a superb defensive
effort in a victory over the
Los Angeles Dodgers.
Ryan Braun, Jonathan Lu-
croy and Corey Hart homered
for the NL Central-leading
Brewers, who have won 17 of
19 and have a six-game lead
over second-place St. Louis
after the Cardinals lost 6-2 at
Pittsburgh.
Milwaukee converted four
double plays and threw out
two runners at home, in-
cluding one on the triple play.
In the second, James Loney
hit a grounder that second
baseman Josh Wilson grabbed
up the middle, flipping the
ball out of his glove to short-
stop Yuniesky Betancourt.
Betancourt threw to Prince
Fielder at first and Fielder
fired home, where George
Kottaras tagged out Matt
Kemp.
Cubs 4, Astros 3
HOUSTON Geovany
Soto had three hits and two
RBIs and Kerry Wood earned
his first save in over a year
as the Chicago Cubs won for
the 12th time in 15 games
with a win over the Houston
Astros.
Rodrigo Lopez (4-3) pitched
an effective 5 1-3 innings,
allowing two earned runs and
the bullpen held on for Chica-
go. Woods last save came on
June 29, 2010 against Toronto
while he was with Cleveland,
but he had his club record
tying streak of eight straight
strikeouts dating back to Aug.
5 broken by Jason Michaels,
who flew out to begin the
ninth. Wood struck out the
last two batters.
Henry Sosa (0-2) allowed
four runs on seven hits with
six strikeouts in six innings
for Houston, which has drop-
ped seven in a row and 10 of
their last 11.

MLB postpones
vote to approve
sale of Astros
NEW YORK Major League
Baseball has postponed a vote
to approve the proposed sale
of the Houston Astros from
Drayton McLane to Jim Crane.
The $680 million
agreement was reached May
16, and owners had anticipated
a vote when they meet
Thursday in Cooperstown.
The commissioners office
said Monday the standard
due diligence that must be
completed before any
transaction of this magnitude
can close remains ongoing.

KANSASCITY, Mo. Jorge
Posada would like to play an-
other season; hes just not sure
someone will give him the
chance.
The Yankees longtime
catcher-turned-designated hit-
ter has struggled most of the
year, even causing a stir by tak-
ing himself out of the lineup at
one point. He had recently lost
his job as the regular DH, but
Posadamadeaspot start Satur-
day at Tampa Bay and hit a
grand slamwhile driving in six
runs.
Yankees manager Joe Girar-
di saidheplannedtostart Posa-
da on Sunday, but the series fi-
nale against the Rays was rain-
ed out. So he put Posada in the
eighth spot in the order Mon-
day night against Kansas City.
The week that he kind of
had off he continued to do his
work, and his cage work, and
thats what it is, Girardi said,
referring to the six days be-
tween when he benched Posa-
da and his offensive outburst
against Tampa Bay.
Jorge has pride in his per-
formance and wants to be a big
contributor, Girardi added.
Posada came into the series
against the Royals batting .237
with 10 homers and 37 RBIs,
though most of the damage to
those numbers came during an
earlyseasonslump. Hewasbat-
ting .304 in 37 starts since the
first week of June, despite a 1-
for-13slumpthat resultedinGi-
rardi giving him an extended
rest.
Girardi wanted to use the
DH spot to find at-bats for Eric
Chavez and give veterans like
Derek Jeter some time off.
ThirdbasemanAlexRodriguez
could also need some extra
time as designated hitter when
he returns from knee surgery,
which the Yankees are tenta-
tively planning for the series
opener Thursday at Minneso-
ta.
That means less playing
time for Posada, who turns 40
on Wednesday.
Youput yourself inthesitua-
tionandhopefullyyoutrytodo
everything possible to keep in
the lineup, andI have to look at
it likethat now, Posadasaid. I
dont know. Its just one of
those things.
Posada, a career .274 hitter,
isinthefinal year of a$52.4mil-
lion, four-year contract.
Its tough for me to tell you
exactlywhat Imgoingtodo, to
tell youthe truth, Posada said,
when asked about playing next
season. I reallywont knowun-
til the season is over and I get
home, andsee what happens in
the off season. Ill work out and
stuff. I havent really thought
about it, but I still think that I
will (play) right now.
Posada saidhe isnt sure hell
be back with the Yankees,
where hes played his entire ca-
reer, or even what position he
might play. The five-time All-
Star said he could still catch if
given the chance to work be-
hind the plate in spring train-
ing, and he can also play first
base in addition to designated
hitter.
Thegreat athleteslovechal-
lenges, Girardi said, and
sometimes you get a challenge
in a sense like that, guys want
to show you. Jorge wants to
play every day, and I respect
that, I love that. Whatever it
takes for him to be productive,
Ill take it, because it allows me
to do some things.
In other news, Girardi said
right-hander Freddie Garcia
plans to throw a bullpen ses-
sion Tuesday after slicing his
finger inakitchenmishap. Ivan
Nova will start Tuesday night
and Bartolo Colon in the series
finale against the Royals, with
the starter Thursday depend-
ent upon how Garcia looks in
his bullpen session.
You have to make sure its
healed, sowedont tear it open.
Thats the thing: You dont
want to go backwards, Girardi
said. Well see if its better to-
morrow, andif its not better to-
morrow well try for the next
day.
Posada says
he can play
another year

1920 Shortstop Ray Chapman of the Cleveland
Indians was hit in the head by Carl Mays pitch in the
fifth inning of a game against the New York Yan-
kees. Chapman suffered a fractured skull and died
the next day. It is the only field fatality in major
league history.
1927 Babe Ruth of the New York Yankees be-
came the first player to clear the roof at Comiskey
Park in Chicago. Ruths home run came off White
Sox pitcher Tommy Thomas in the 8-1 win.
1947RalphKiner hit threesuccessivehomeruns
to become the first Pirates player to accomplish the
feat as Pittsburgh beat the St. Louis Cardinals 12-7
at Forbes Field.
1948 Babe Ruth died of cancer in New York, at
the age of 53.
1950 Hank Thompson hit two inside-the-park
home runs in the Giants 16-7 rout of the Brooklyn
Dodgers at the Polo Grounds.
1964 Curt Flood of the St. Louis Cardinals had
eight straight hits inadoubleheader against theLos
Angeles Dodgers. The Dodgers won the first game
3-0 and the Cardinals took the second, 4-0.
1967 Jim Maloney of Cincinnati retired 19 con-
secutive Pirates, but had to leave the game after he
injured his ankle by stepping in a hole at Forbes
Field. Billy McCool allowed two hits over the final 2
2-3 innings to give the Reds a 4-0 victory over Pitts-
burgh.

Finally pulling into Victory
Lane was a feeling like no other.
This is almost surreal, the
affable Australian said in his No.
9 Ford for Richard Petty Motor-
sports after crossing the finish
line.
Ambrose signed a multiyear
deal withstruggling RPMa year
ago to drive the No. 9 this sea-
son. That capped a tumultuous
summer in which he opted to
leave the No. 47 at JTG Daugh-
erty Racing at the end of 2010
with one year left on his con-
tract, even though he knew he
was taking a big risk in difficult
economic times.
There were days, weeks
when I was anxious, Ambrose
said. There were times I was
sitting around the boardroom
table and there was nobody else
there. But youve got to roll the
dice sometimes.
It was Fords first victory at
Watkins Glen since Geoff Bod-
ine won here in 1996 and the
15th different winner in Cup
races this year.
Busch, trying to win a second
time from the pole at Watkins
Glen, led the field to the green
flag for the final two laps. But
Keselowski, racing with a bro-
ken left ankle and trying for his
second straight win and third of
the season, dove from third to
the lead entering the first turn
with Ambrose also streaking
past Busch.
Those guys didnt care to
give me any room, said Busch,
who finished second to brother
Kurt here in Saturdays Nation-
widerace. Theres onlyonecor-
ner youve got to make, and as
soonas youmakeit throughthat
corner and can keep everybody
behind, its smooth sailing from
there.
Ambrose thenclosedonKese-
lowski in the chicane after
zooming through the high-
speed esses and passed him for
the lead before the final lap.
I wanted to win, said Kese-
lowski, who has the first wild
card for the Chase and moved
up four spots in the standings to
14th. We had a shot at it, and
thats all youcanaskas a driver.
Busch finished third, and
Martin Truex Jr. and Joey Loga-
no rounded out the top five.
Kevin Harvick was sixth, fol-
lowed by defending race winner
Juan Pablo Montoya, AJ All-
mendinger, Jeff Burton and Jim-
mie Johnson.
Kurt Busch, whowonat Sono-
ma in June, crashed early and
finished 38th. He wasnt alone:
Denny Hamlin, who entered the
day 11th in points, also crashed
and finished 36th; five-time
Watkins Glen winner Tony
Stewart, who ran up front all
race, was taken out on the final
lap in the chicane and finished
27th; and Paul Menard, also in
the hunt for a spot in the Chase,
brought out the race-changing
caution when he crashed on the
86th lap and finished 32nd.
The top 10 drivers in the
standings and the two drivers
with the most victories in 11th
to 20th place earn spots for the
10-race Chase.
Keselowski never got the
chance to challenge for the win
on the final lap. The race ended
with a caution as David Reuti-
mann and David Ragan crashed
violently entering the second
turn, with Ragan slamming
head-on into the guard rail and
Reutimanns car bouncing hard
off the barrier and sliding up-
side down across the track.
Ambrose was on a conserva-
tive pit strategy all day despite
threatening weather the race
was postponed by rain Sunday
andmore was inthe forecast. He
passed Truex for third on turn
one, a 90-degree right-hander, of
lap73andmoveduptothe bum-
per of Keselowski.
Ambrose then outbraked Ke-
selowski goingintothefirst turn
on lap 76 and set his sights on
Busch. He moved within three
car lengths on lap 80 as the two
encountered lapped traffic and
closed to Buschs back bumper
in the chicane with eight laps to
go.
Plenty of time to get him. Go
get him, said Ambroses crew
chief, Todd Parrott.
Ambrose got the chance he
wanted when Menard, running
14th, blew a tire and crashed on
lap 86, bringing out the final
caution.
That set up the frantic dash to
the finish of what turned into a
92-lap race and spoiled the day
for Kyle Busch, who led 49 laps.
He was in the catbird seat for 18
straight circuits when Menard
crashed.
The last couple of laps I was
getting away from him (Am-
brose), said Busch, who moved
into a tie with Carl Edwards for
the top spot in the standings.
The last thing I wanted to see
was a caution knewit was go-
ing to come down to one corner
and I messed up.
Hamlin brought out the third
caution of the race on lap 67
when he zoomed at high speed
straight through the first turn
and slammed head-on into the
tire barrier that borders the
paved runout area.
Hamlin, who started at the
rear of the field after a crash in
qualifying and was all the way
up to 11th, was not injured. But
the stoppage jumbled the run-
ning order as Jeff Gordon gave
up the lead to pit for the final
time, giving Kyle Busch the lead
again with Keselowski along-
side him in the front row and
Ambrose and Montoya in the
third row.
I had no brakes, Hamlin
said. I was trying to do every-
thing I could. Just nothing you
can do.

Continued from Page 1B
this little smile. He was just fear-
less, Riley recalledsome 20 years
later. He already knew he had
me.
Riley first met Woods when he
was10. Hebeat himtotheprotour
in 1996 by a few months. Soon
enough, though, every other play-
er on the PGA Tour knew exactly
what that look meant.
Mired in the second year of the
deepest slump of his career,
Woods didnt scare anyone at last
weeks PGA Championship. He
looked lost, not fearless.
Not many superstars in the
worldof sports andentertainment
have fallen so far so fast. Woods
was knocked off his throne by a
self-inflicted sex scandal that
erupted at Thanksgiving in 2009
andcost himhis marriage. He was
quickly and unceremoniously
dumped by sponsors and hu-
miliated by the same TV shows
and newspapers that once begged
for interviews.
Woods went into exile, finally
returning to golf in April 2010 at
the Masters with a fourth-place
finish. He has been steadily losing
ground in the golf rankings ever
since.
Some believe he will never be
that indomitableplayer again; oth-
ers, including a few who know
Woods better, say its crazy to
count himout.
Hes always been the best. His
dad drilled that into him, Riley
said, But this has got to be the
lowest point of his career. Nobody
has ever seen himdo the stuff hes
doing now. It hurts to see it. Hon-
estly, I dont know that hes ever
had to struggle.
But I guarantee you this: Hell
be back on top. And when he is,
Riley paused, its going to be that
much sweeter.
Speculationabout Woods errat-
icplaythepast twoseasonszeroed
in on his psyche initially. From
there, the blame shifted onto his
work-in-progress swing and then
the very real problem with his
legs.
He was the most mentally and
emotionally tough athlete of all
time, so heres the question Imin-
terested in, said sports psycholo-
gist Gregg Steinberg, who was a
swing instructor earlier in his ca-
reer. Why did Tiger play last
week if any or all of those prob-
lems were bothering him, or if
as the results suggest he knew
he wasnt ready?
Maybe he thought he could
catch lightning in a bottle. Thats
one guess. The other would be he
wantedtomeasurehimself. ... The
secret to being great is self-aware-
ness and so whether that was his
intention or not, Steinberg add-
ed, he definitely knows nowthat
he needs a good butt-kicking.
Last weekmarkedonlythethird
time Woods missed the cut in a
major as a professional. It hap-
pened at the 2006 U.S. Open
shortly after the death of his fa-
ther, Earl and the British Open
twoyears ago. More troublingstill
might have been Woods demea-
nor over his final fewholes.
As shots veered left or right of
the fairway, and occasionally into
a bunker, pond or the Georgia
pines lining both sides, Woods
trackedtheir flight witha deflated
expression or simply dropped his
head into his chest. Absent were
the trademark temper tantrums
and even a hint of the joyful explo-
sions that once rocketed Woods
up the leaderboard at every one of
the games biggest events.
Golf is as much art as it is tech-
nical, and thats where his genius
was. He always hadthis spirit, this
belief he could find a way to do
anythinghe coulddreamup, said
Rudy Duran, who began tutoring
Tiger at age 4, about the time Earl
Woods had exhausted his own
teaching repertoire.
I ran into himone afternoon at
Heartwell (Golf Course in Long
Beach, Calif., an18-hole executive
course that became Woods play-
ground) and he was standing in a
bunker surroundedby50balls. Ti-
ger was around 8 at the time. He
was tryingtohit oneout andmake
it spin left on landing, then make
thenext onegoright, thenext one
straight and so on.
I only watched a few of his
shots this weekend, but I dont
thinkhes broken, headded. And
onlysomeonewhodoesnt knowa
thing about golf would think hes
done.
Duran handed Woods off to an-
other teacher by age10, andnoted
that rather thanworkingonswing
technique, his lessons consisted
largely of simple tips designed to
let the youngster have more fun.
Id say, Try this to make the
ball go higher, this to keep it low.
Believe me, I wasnt grooming
him to became the best player in
the world, but I never came close
to exhausting his imagination. I
dont know enough to guess
where his game is, but Ill say this:
Hes not walking a tightrope be-
tween success and failure. Thats
just silly.
He hasnt forgotten how to
play. Andoncehegets aswinghes
comfortable with, Duran said fi-
nally, who knows what hes still
capable of?
Most of golfs greatest cham-
pions collected their majors over
8-10 years and crested the hill by
their mid to late 30s. Bobby Jones
retired at 28. TomWatson and By-
ron Nelson never won another af-
ter33, ArnoldPalmer, 34, andWal-
ter Hagen, 36. Gary Player won
only one of his nine after 38 and
Nick Faldo his last at 39. Ben Ho-
gan was an anomaly, finding his
secret after a car crash nearly
killed him and winning into his
early 40s.
Jack Nicklaus, whose 18 career
majors was the benchmarkWoods
set himself as a youngster, won all
but oneof his over an18-year span;
andthat last one, the1986Masters
at age 46, was what people mean
when they use the phrase, catch-
ing lightning in a bottle.
Woodsturned35last December
and collected his 14 majors be-
tween the 1997 Masters and 2008
U.S. Open, where he won effec-
tively playing on a broken left leg.
Hes now had four surgeries on
that leg and arrived at the PGA
Championship after a two-month
layoff to rehab the bad wheel
and a year into his latest swing
overhaul with Sean Foley, the
third coach he hired since turning
pro.
TIGER
which has won the last five BCS
championships in football but on
Sunday reaffirmed its 12-school
membership while leaving the
door open to expansion.
There is no bid, Loftin said.
There has never been a bid to in-
vite us intothe SECat anytime in
the past and if it were to occur in
the future, we would certainly
want to evaluate that.
Loftin met with reporters
shortly after receiving authority
from the board of regents to take
any action he deems necessary in
terms of realignment. He said
Texas A&Mis looking only at the
SECright now, but didnt ruleout
other possibilities.
Its not so much whats wrong
with the Big 12, its whats right
for Texas A&M and where we
want to go in time, he said.
The Big 12 will begin the foot-
ball seasonina fewweeks with10
teams after Nebraska (Big Ten)
and Colorado (Pac-12) left in Ju-
ly, a year after a seismic shift in
conference alignment. The Big
12 did not respond to requests for
comment Monday, though Com-
missioner Dan Beebe told USA
Today on Sunday that the Big 12
was interested in maintaining 10
member schools.
Were just working hard to try
to figure out how they can stay
with us because of the value that
institution has and the quality
academic and athletic programs
it offers, Beebe told the newspa-
per. Well see. Weve seen the
odds stacked against us before.
Loftinsaidhebegandiscussing
Texas A&Ms interest in the SEC
with Commissioner Mike Slive
on July 21. A&Ms departure
would cast doubt on the future of
the Big 12, and Loftin said he
would consider the ramifications
for the conference before doing
anything.
What we do, if anything, will
be in the best interest of Texas
A&M and the state of Texas, he
said. Were also very concerned
about the members of the Big12.
We dont want the Big 12 to go
away. We have no intention of do-
ing anything that might precipi-
tate that.
Another key for Texas A&Min
negotiating with another confer-
ence would be continuing its
more than 100-year-old football
rivalry with Texas.
Thats a historic rivalry, he
said. We see no reason why it
couldnot continue under a differ-
ent conference arrangement if
they chose to do so. We certainly
want to make that part of any dis-
cussion we have with another
conference.
Loftin said he would have to
consider the financial conse-
quences to leaving the Big 12, if
Texas A&M wants to go some-
where else. The Big12, including
Texas A&M, agreed to a 13-year
television deal with Fox Sports in
April that is worth more than $1
billion. If the Aggies leave the
conference, there is a chance the
contract could be voided, which
could lead to legal issues for Tex-
as A&M and its new league.
Texas A&M also could be sub-
ject to buyout or exit fees if it
bolts.
Ive read the bylaws of the Big
12 and theyre confusing to some
extent, Loftin said when asked
about what costs could be associ-
ated with leaving.
A&M
CHICAGOEmbattledCubs
pitcher Carlos Zambrano says
hed like to pitch again for Chica-
go and was simply frustrated
when he told club personnel he
wantedtoretire after his most re-
cent start.
In his first public comments
since the team banished him fol-
lowing another meltdown, Zam-
brano told Comcast SportsNet
Chicago in a phone interview
Monday that he wants to remain
a Cub.
Of course, man Zambrano
said. Hey, the Cubs have beento
me like family. The organization
is my family. Ive seen people go
and people come and Im still
there. ... I want to keep pitching
for the Cubs. It was a moment of
frustration Friday night, and I
pitched so bad I wanted to retire,
you know, I dont want to be
making $18 million and pitch
like crap.
Zambrano cleaned out his
locker and talked about retiring
after giving up five homers and
being ejected fromFriday nights
10-4loss toAtlanta followingtwo
inside pitches to Chipper Jones.
He says he intended to be at the
ballpark the next day, but his
agent Barry Praver told him not
to because we were in the mid-
dle of discussions with the union
and the Cubs.
The Cubs placedZambranoon
the disqualifiedlist Saturday and
said the right-hander would re-
ceive no pay and have no part in
team activities for 30 days after
the latest in a long line of inci-
dents.
That includes a fight with for-
mer catcher Michael Barrett and
a dugout confrontation with
then-teammate Derrek Lee last
season that led to him being
placed on the restricted list for
six weeks and sent to anger man-
agement.
This season, he called the
Cubs embarrassing and a Tri-
ple-A team while calling out
closer Carlos Marmol for giving
up a tying hit to Ryan Theriot on
a slider after a loss to St. Louis in
June. But its not like Zambrano
has been doing his part at 9-7
with a 4.82 ERA. The Cubs cer-
tainly expected more when he
signed a deal adding $91.5 mil-
lion over five seasons through
2012, including a $17.85 million
salary this season and $18 mil-
lion in 2012.
For that matter, so did Zam-
brano.
I feel bad with me, with the
performance, with what I amdo-
ing or I was doing in the season
its frustrating, he said. Its frus-
trating every time I go to the
mound and I give up eight runs.
Its not me, and I want to do my
best.

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J.
Having given up his bid
for a new contract, two-time
Pro Bowl defensive end Osi
Umenyiora has practiced with
the New York Giants for the
first time since training camp
opened last month.
The 29-year-old Umenyiora
worked with the first team
defense although he did split
snaps at right end with sec-
ond-year pro Jason Pierre Paul
on Monday.
Umenyiora declined to talk
to the media during the play-
er availability, but coach Tom
Coughlin was happy to see
him practicing. Umenyiora has
been in camp since reporting
a day late on July 30. He has
attended team meetings but
did not practice because he
alleged the team promised to
re-work the final two years of
his contract. He has decided
to play under terms of the
old deal.

around the Pittsburgh Steelers
offensive line, the team con-
siders itself fortunate to have
a stable Pro Bowl anchor in
the middle.
Even if this pillar of stabil-
ity is only three weeks re-
moved from his 22nd birth-
day.
Taken with the 18th pick of
last years draft, Maurkice
Pouncey so impressed the
Steelers early during training
camp of his rookie year that
he won the starting job at
center. Almost immediately,
Pouncey developed into one
of the best of the league at
his position.
Forget the sophomore
slump, his teammates say.
Still the second-youngest of
the 90 players in Pittsburghs
camp, Pouncey has gone from
20-year-old draftee to respect-
ed, reliable team leader in a
matter of 16 months.
Hes the spark on our of-
fensive line, guard/center
Doug Legursky said. Hes
going to lead us.
Hes being depended on to
do just that for a unit that
will have different starters at
three of the four other posi-
tions from last seasons Super
Bowl team.
COWBOYS
ARLINGTON, Texas
Marcus Spears was prepared
to accept the possibility that
he might have played his last
game for the Dallas Cowboys.
Spears missed the second
half of last season because of
a calf injury. Plus, the Cow-
boys had salary cap issues
and hoped to retain Stephen
Bowen, the defensive end who
became the starter after
Spears got hurt.
When Bowen took a five-
year deal from Washington,
Spears suddenly had a new
five-year contract from the
Cowboys. Spears says he
might not have been the first
guy the Cowboys wanted
back, but that everybody was
excited when he agreed to
terms. He says he under-
stands the business aspect
and is happy to remain with
the team that drafted him in
the first round six years ago.
BRONCOS
ENGLEWOOD, Colo. Pro
Bowl receiver Brandon Lloyd
and rookie starting safety
Rahim Moore got into a brief
fight at the Denver Broncos
training camp Monday after-
noon.
Before the fight, defensive
tackles Ty Warren (arm) and
Marcus Thomas (chest) left
practice with injuries, the
severity of which were un-
known.
Lloyd and Moore, a second-
round draft pick from UCLA,
exchanged simultaneous
punches to the face before the
fight quickly dissipated. On
the next play, Kyle Orton hit
Lloyd with a short touchdown
toss with Moore in coverage.
Lloyd declined to discuss
the fight after practice and
Moore said he spoke with
Lloyd shortly after the fight
and the two worked things
out.
PATRIOTS
FOXBOROUGH, Mass.
Wes Welker drew attention
Monday for eluding defenders.
Teammate Patrick Chung got
noticed for leveling a receiver.
The intensity is increasing
at the New England Patriots
training camp with players
and coaches hurrying to catch
up after team-organized mini-
camps and workouts were
cancelled because of the lock-
out.
Welker made a sharp cut in
front of Chung to grab a
short pass from Tom Brady.
Later, Chung delivered a hit
that knocked Aaron Hernan-
dez to the ground after the
tight end made a catch.
The safety said practice is
becoming more physical each
day.
Yeah, Chung said, but
footballs a physical sport,
man, period, whether its right
in the trenches or if its
downfield. If it gets physical,
it gets physical, but we also
have to take care of our
teammates and take care of
our bodies (and) save the
physical stuff for the game.
Tell that to Hernandez, who
put a move on Chung after
catching the ball. He wasnt
upright for long.
I wasnt expecting it but it
was still a good little pop and
it got me a little aggravated,
he said. He plays hard and
youve got to be ready at all
times.
Welker and Chung are both
having good camps.
A year ago, the receiver
was coming off major surgery
on his left knee after he was
injured in the final regular-
season game of 2009. Now,
hes quicker, Patriots director
of player personnel Nick Case-
rio said.
PANTHERS
SPARTANBURG, S.C.
Coach Ron Rivera is serious
about the Carolina Panthers
new aggressive, attacking
style on offense.
Offensive coordinator Rob
Chudzinskis new scheme has
just about everyone excited
about the potential of this
years offense, just one year
after the Panthers finished
last in the NFL in points
scored, total yards and pass-
ing offense.
The Panthers scored 20
points in Saturdays preseason
opener against the New York
Giants, something they ac-
complished only twice in 16
regular season games in 2010.
Rookie Cam Newton says
the new-look offense is about
big plays and keeping that
foot on the gas.
Greg Olsen, acquired in a
trade with the Chicago Bears
two weeks ago, says the of-
fense is a fun offense to be a
part of, especially for a tight
end.
VIKINGS
EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn.
The transition to a new team
for Michael Jenkins isnt as
awkward or difficult as it can
be for a wide receiver trying
to learn a new scheme.
His position coach and of-
fensive coordinator with the
Minnesota Vikings are familiar
faces, having worked with
George Stewart and Bill Mus-
grave previously with the
Atlanta Falcons. The connec-
tion was important when
Jenkins picked his new team
as a free agent, with a limit-
ed amount of time to learn a
new offense after the lockout.
Jenkins joins Bernard Ber-
rian and Percy Harvin as the
top pass-catchers in Mus-
graves offense. He spent all
seven of his previous NFL
seasons with the Falcons.
Vikings coach Leslie Frazier
says hes impressed by Jenkins
and his attention to detail.
TITANS
NASHVILLE, Tenn.
Right tackle David Stewart
has a sore left hamstring that
could keep him out for a
week, so the Tennessee Titans
have signed veteran offensive
tackle Adam Terry.
The 6-foot-8, 335-pound
Terry joined his new team-
mates on the field during
practice Monday but hadnt
had a chance to meet head
coach Mike Munchak just yet.
Terry was a second-round
pick by Baltimore in 2005,
and he has started 18 of the
50 career games he has
played in. The Ravens placed
him on injured reserve in
2009, and he was signed by
Indianapolis during the 2010
offseason before being cut in
September. He played two
games with San Diego before
signing with Jacksonville in
November.

HOUSTON The last
three offensive play calls by
Mark Sanchez on Monday
night were runs.
And no, it was not con-
servatism on the part of of-
fensive coordinator Brian
Schottenheimer. He simply
wanted to make sure San-
chez would leave Reliant
Stadium walking under his
own power.
The Jets injury-plagued
offensive line allowed four
first-half sacks to Houston,
including two of Sanchez,
as the drop-off between the
first- and second-stringers
was noticeable in a 20-16
loss to the Texans.
Sanchez played the entire
first quarter before being re-
lieved by third-stringer
Greg McElroy. It was a
smart move by coach Rex
Ryan, because Sanchezs
nicked-up offensive line was
decimated even further
when reserve center Rob
Turner left with a lower leg
injury after being acciden-
tally undercut by Houston
defensive end J.J. Watt. The
injury appeared serious, as
a cart was needed to re-
move Turner from the field.
He didnt return.
Turner started in place of
Nick Mangold (stinger),
who didnt make the trip.
And right guard Brandon
Moore, who had off-season
hip surgery, also didnt trav-
el. Third-string center Rob-
by Felix took Turners
place.

Former American 100-meter
champion Michael Rodgers test-
ed positive for a stimulant found
in an energy drink and could be
ineligible for the world track
championships later this month.
Rodgers is the 2009 national
champion and qualified for this
years team by finishing third at
nationals. He said on his Twitter
account that he tested positive.
USA Track and Field spokes-
woman Jill Geer said the U.S. An-
ti-Doping Agency is handling his
case and would decide Rodgers
eligibility for worlds. A hearing
could be expedited and held later
this week.
A backup sample for Rodgers
will be tested Wednesday.
Tony Campbell, the agent for
Rodgers, said the sprinter tested
positive for methylhexaneamine,
a stimulant that can be found in
energy drinks. Campbell said
Rodgers ordered vodka with an
energy drink at a clublast month,
two days before a meet in Ligna-
no, Italy, where he ran the 100
and was a member of the U.S. re-
lay squad.
Bad decision on his part. Now
hes paying the price for it,
Campbell said. We have to clear
his name.
T R A C K
Positive test could keep Rodgers on sidelines
EAST LANSING, Mich.
Kirk Cousins got his senior sea-
son off to an impressive start
with a speech.
The Michigan State quarter-
back spoke at a Big Ten kickoff
luncheon late last month, calling
it a privilege to play in the con-
ference and talking at length
about the responsibility college
athletes face as role models and
representatives of their schools.
When he was done, Cousins re-
ceived a standing ovation.
I sawmy dad when I got done,
and the first thing I asked him
was, Howdo you handle a stand-
ing ovation? Cousins said. He
said, I dont know. Ive never got-
ten one.
And hes been in the ministry
for a long time.
Cousins may have been taken
aback, but nobody who knows
the affable quarterback should
have beenall that surprised. Cou-
sins turned heads all over the Big
Ten last season with his compo-
sure while he led the Spartans to
11 wins. Now hes back for his
third year as a starter, hoping to
help Michigan State to even grea-
ter heights.
In addition to being unflappa-
ble on the field, Cousins has
earnedplentyof acclaimoff it. He
was one of 10finalists last year for
the Wuerffel Trophy, which hon-
ors the college football player
who best combines community
service withacademic andathlet-
ic achievement.
As Ive said before, he doesnt
have to just be a great quarter-
back, Michigan State coach
Mark Dantonio said. Hes going
to be a great husband, a great fa-
ther, hes beena great community
leader. The guy just sort of has it
as a person.
Dantonio called Cousins
speechbusiness as usual but
it was a bit of a revelation for
those who werent as familiar
with him. Cousins began by
name-dropping Big Ten schools
like a seasoned politician. Cou-
sins grew up in the Chicago area
watching plenty of Northwestern
games, but he was raised an Iowa
fan. He also attended Purdues
quarterback camp in high school
but ended up going to Michigan
State.
The speech eventually took a
more serious turn, building up to
an eloquent conclusion.
I dont believe its too far-
fetched to think that we as col-
legefootball players couldmakea
significant positive difference in
the youth culture of America,
simply by embracing the respon-
sibilities that accompany this
place of privilege, Cousins said.
We could redefine what is cool
for young people. We could set a
new standard for how to treat
others. We could embody what it
means to be a person of integrity.
We could show to young people
that excellence in the classroom
is a worthy pursuit. We could
show that its more important to
do what is right, than to do what
feels right.
While I believe we as players
do not deserve the platform we
have been given, we have it none-
theless. It comes with the territo-
ry of being a college football play-
er in the Big Ten. May we as play-
ers have wisdom to handle this
privilegeandthecouragetofulfill
the responsibility weve been giv-
en.
Cousins has received enough
of a response to his speech that
hes starting to wonder if it might
overshadow his passing.
Its exciting and its a neat
thing, but Id much rather be
known for my play on the field
than for a speech, he said.
Even before earning a reputa-
tion as an orator, Cousins was
turning heads. He completed 67
percent of his passes last season,
throwing for 2,825 yards with 20
touchdowns and 10 intercep-
tions.

If Missy Franklins mind wan-
ders as she sits in her advanced
placement literature class this
week in suburban Denver, the 16-
year-old swimmer will have plen-
ty of summer memories to enter-
tain her.
Maybe shell remember win-
ning three gold medals at her
first world championships in
China. Or setting two American
records in the process. Or being
presented with a $20,000 check
as the top points earner on the
grand prix circuit, beating out
the likes of Michael Phelps and
Ryan Lochte.
I had the best summer I could
ever ask for, she said recently.
Franklin emerged as a budding
star of the U.S. team, someone
who can swim multiple events
and anchor the pressure-packed
relays even though shes barely
learned to drive.
All of us are so impressed
with her, 11-time Olympic med-
alist Natalie Coughlin said. She
has the maturity to handle the
pressure.
Three years ago, Franklin was
an unknown 13-year-old and the
second-youngest swimmer at the
U.S. Olympic trials, competing
in three events.
At next years trials, expect
Franklins name to be all over the
heat sheets as she plans to qual-
ify in the maximum 13 events.
She wont swim them all; she
just loves the challenge of
achieving such an audacious
goal.
Sounds like a female Phelps,
right?
Its hard to compare yourself
to someone who is that unbeliev-
able at what he does, Franklin
said, so right now Im just going
to stick to swimming my races
and just being me and having fun
with it.
Phelps certainly noticed her in
Shanghai, saying, Shes never
tired, shes always swimming
fast. Shes a stud.
At 6-foot-1, with big hands and
size 13 feet, Franklin cuts an im-
posing figure on the blocks. Shes
got a catchy nickname Mis-
sile Missy bestowed by her
dad four years ago. Out of the
water, she has a cant-miss smile
revealing a mouth full of braces.
Im trying to get them off as
soon as possible, she said. Its
just really annoying.
Thats about the only thing
that gets the relentlessly upbeat
Franklin down. She cracked up
her teammates in China with her
excited approach to swimming
the morning prelims, her danc-
ing ability at training camp, and
her bubbly personality.
Its unbelievably refreshing to
have her energy on this team,
Coughlin said.
Franklin thrived on being ac-
cepted by her teammates, whose
gold-medal standards she hopes
to live up to at the London Olym-
pics.

Healthier housing market?
Last month, the Commerce De-
partment had some surprisingly
good news about housing,
when it reported a big jump in
the number of homes that
builders started working on in
June. Homes were started at
an annual rate of 629,000.
Thats half of whats considered
a healthy rate, but it was a sign
of progress. The July number
due today isnt forecast to be
as strong, but still up from the
levels of the spring.
Spains economy
Investors in the U.S. are paying close attention to economic
numbers from other countries. The debt problems in Europe
have been a big factor in
the plunge in stocks the
last two weeks. Spain, one
of the most troubled coun-
tries in Europe, releases its
gross domestic product
report today. Its economy
grew at a slim 0.3 percent
annual rate in the first
quarter. The forecast for
the second quarter: 0.2
percent.
Wal-Mart earnings
Investors will look at the big
discounters second-quarter
earnings for clues about con-
sumer spending. During the
recession, Wal-Mart lost shop-
pers to cheaper rivals like dollar
stores. High gas prices during
the spring may have sent them
away again. Investors also
want to know if Wal-Marts
strategy of lowering prices and
restocking shelves with discon-
tinued merchandise lifted sales
at its Wal-Mart chain.

Stocks steady, show gains
U.S. stocks on Monday climbed for a
third session as relative calmness
reigned and investors embraced Goo-
gle Inc.s $12.5 billion play for Motorola
Mobility Holdings Inc.
Clearly, just psychologically the
market is exhausted after the two and a
half weeks weve had, and today is
more of a response to no calamity over
the weekend, said Jay Suskind, a se-
nior vice president at Duncan-Williams
Inc.
The market took a step back and
said, OK, weve had this correction.
Lets let cooler heads prevail, Sus-
kind added.
Bank of America shares rose 7.9
percent after the company said it
would sell its credit-card business in
Canada to TD Bank Group and exit the
card business in the United Kingdom
and Ireland.
Weiner makers in dog fight
The nations two largest hot dog
makers took their legal beefs on Mon-
day to federal court, where a judge will
determine whether Oscar Mayer or
Ball Park franks broke false-advertising
laws in their efforts to become top dog.
As the bench trial got under way,
U.S. Magistrate Judge Morton Denlow
cast his eyes across the Chicago cour-
troom, where half a dozen attorneys
were at opposing tables, and said, Let
the wiener wars begin.
The battle pits Chicago-area compa-
nies Sara Lee Corp., which makes Ball
Park franks, against Kraft Foods Inc.,
which makes Oscar Mayer, in a case
that could clarify how far companies
can go when boasting that their prod-
uct is better than a competitors.
Buffett tweaks investments
Warren Buffetts company has re-
vealed new investments in retailer
Dollar General and insurance data
specialist Verisk Analytics along with
several other adjustments in its $52.4
billion U.S. stock portfolio.
Investors will have to wait a while to
see the complete picture of Berkshire
Hathaways holdings, because the Oma-
ha-based company received permission
from the Securities and Exchange
Commission to keep some holdings
confidential.
Besides those new holdings, Berk-
shire reported increases in holdings of
Wells Fargo and MasterCard, and Buf-
fetts company trimmed its Kraft Foods
stake.
Builders pessimistic
The National Association of Home
Builders said Monday that its index of
builder sentiment in August was un-
changed at 15. The index has been
below 20 for all but one month during
the past two years.
Any reading below 50 indicates nega-
tive sentiment about the housing mar-
ket. It hasnt reached 50 since April
2006, the peak of the housing boom.
Separate gauges of current single-
family home sales and foot traffic of
prospective buyers each rose one point
this month. But the outlook for sales
for the next six months fell two points.

WALL STREET
IN THE WORLD of
consumer electronics,
the battle for smart-
phone supremacy has
been going nonstop
for nearly a decade.
By comparison, until
recently the tussle
over tablets has seemed like a side-
show.
Apple released the iPad, and through
a combination of marketing and style,
dragged everyones attention to what
had up to that point been a niche mar-
ket.
From a technical standpoint, the
iPad 2 has been surpassed repeatedly.
There are faster tablets. There are
tablets with more power. There are
tablets with greater functionality.
But until now not many have ap-
proached the iPad in terms of style or
ease of use.
Samsung has released its Galaxy Tab
10.1, a 10-inch version of the Galaxy
Tab 7 thats been out for a while. Two
things struck me as I picked it up and
compared it to the iPad 2. First: Its
lighter. Second: Its every bit as thin as
an iPad. The screen is slightly wider,
allowing for a true 16:9 aspect ratio,
but otherwise, the design is strikingly
similar to the iPad. So similar, as a
matter of fact, that Apple is suing
Samsung over the resemblance, and
has succeeded in having sales of the
Galaxy Tab 10.1 banned in Europe.
As far as I can tell, thats Apples
customary way of saying that some-
ones hitting a bit too close to the
mark. There are, after all, only so many
ways you can make a tablet device.
One difference: The Galaxy Tab 10.1
from Verizon Wireless that I reviewed
offers full access to Verizons 4G net-
work a huge advantage on a tablet.
Driven by a 1GHz nVidia T20 Dual
Core processor, it was snappy and
responsive. The display is incredibly
clear. . It offers a 3.0 megapixel rear
camera and a 2.0 megapixel front-
facing camera for video conferencing.
For storage, there are 16GB and 32GB
models. The 16GB model I reviewed
had plenty of space, but if youre a
music or video lover, it might be a
good idea to spring for the 32GB mod-
el.
As with most Android tablets, it
offers Flash playback, so the majority
of websites should work properly for
casual users. It weighs in
at 1.25 lbs, compared to
the iPad2s 1.6 lbs., and
measures 10.10 inches by
6.90 inches. Its .34 inch-
es thick, which is exactly the same as
the iPad 2.
Unlike most Samsung devices, the
Verizon version of the Tab doesnt yet
feature Samsungs TouchWiz interface,
so its broadly similar to the Motorola
Xoom in function, featuring the default
Android 3.1 interface.
My overall conclusion: The Galaxy
Tab 10.1 finally gets it right, as far as
style is concerned. Its not quite as
simple as the iPad in terms of user
experience, but it is quite a bit more
capable. The 32GB version of the Gal-
axy Tab 10.1 will set you back $629.99,
and the 16GB version costs $529.99.

SAN FRANCISCO Google Inc.s
$12.5 billion deal to buy cell phone mak-
er Motorola Mobility Holdings Inc. is
aimed at giving the Internet search lead-
er more legal firepower as it battles Ap-
ple Inc. and Microsoft Corp. to gain the
upper hand in the increasingly impor-
tant mobile computing market.
The all-cash acquisition announced
Monday is the boldest move in Googles
13-year history.
Besides being by far the largest deal
that Google has ever proposed, buying
Motorola would push the company into
phone and computer tablet manufactur-
ing for the first time, at the risk of alien-
ating the other device makers that de-
pend on Googles Android operating sys-
tem.
The proposed deal also is likely to in-
crease government scrutiny on Google
at a timewhenantitrust regulators inthe
U.S. and Europe already are parsing its
business practices todeterminewhether
it has been abusing its power to stifle
competition. The inquiries are focused
primarily on the companys Internet
search and advertising businesses, but
regulators are also looking into whether
Google using Android to ensure its ser-
vices receive preferential treatment on
devices using that free software.
If federal regulators approve the deal,
GoogleCEOLarryPages abilitytoavoid
a clash of cultures will be tested. With
19,000 workers, Motorola Mobilitys
work force isnt that much smaller than
Googles payroll of 28,800 employees.
But this is deal more about patents
than people.
Motorola, which introduced its first
cell phone nearly 30 years ago, has more
than 17,000 patents with another 7,500
still awaiting approval. That trove pre-
sumably will give Google and its An-
droid more patent protection against a
list of legal antagonists that include
three of the technology industrys most
powerful companies Apple, Microsoft
and Oracle Corp.
Google pounced on Motorola less
than two months after a group including
Apple and Microsoft joined up to pay
$4.5 billion for 6,000 patents owned by
Nortel, a bankrupt Canadian maker of
telecommunications equipment. Leav-
ing no doubt about the mounting antag-
onism among the companies, Googles
top lawyer blasted Apple and Microsoft
for their legal maneuvering earlier this
month in a blog post titled When pat-
ents attack Android.
Google intends to run Motorola sep-
arately fromits core Internet search and
advertising business.
For Google,
major move

WILKES-BARRE As downtown Wilkes-Barre has become an entertainment Mecca, some
enterprisingbusiness owners have movedtocapitalize onlate-night visitors whomaywant or
need to take a break before heading home. At least three downtown eateries The Greek
Connection, Pronto Pizza and The Happy Little Hot Dog Company have added overnight
hours onweekends togive patrons of bars andtheaters a chance tofill their bellies before they
file into their cars.
When Daphne Reid and Jim Ro-
berts opened their hot dog business
last summer, business was good. But
Daphne Reid knew people who were
exiting bars after last call or Movies
14 after the last credits rolled had no
place toget a bite toeat without head-
ingout of downtowntoa 24-hour fast-
food place, the truck stops along I-81
or a restaurant like Dennys or Aus-
ties.
There was a market that was un-
tapped in downtown Wilkes-Barre,
Reid said.
In recent years, the opening of sev-
eral bars has added to the citys night-
life. Rodanos movedto Public Square
to join Bart and Urbys and Senunas
as part of the downtown entertain-
ment scene. Along with the movie
theater, suddenly people were not on-
ly coming downtown but they were
also staying late.
Other businesses took notice.
Greek Connection owners John
and Rebecca Karas began opening
their eatery from1 to 5 a.m. Saturday
and Sunday mornings just two week-
ends ago.
Rebecca Karas said the turnout has
been so good she wishes they had
thought of the extended hours
months ago.
While the hot dog shop and the piz-
zeria close at 3 a.m., the Greek Con-
nectionstays openuntil 5, givinglate-
night visitors a chance tofill upbefore
heading home and those who work
early shifts on the weekend a chance
to grab breakfast before heading to
work.
The hot dog company did not stay
open extended hours from June
throughthis monthbecause Reidsaid
she noticed its a bit quieter down-
town once the colleges let out and
when many people are on vacation.
Shes planning to restart overnight
hours the last weekend of this month.
And shes planning to open at 11 p.m.
instead of midnight because she
thinks she can get more of the movie
crowd.
She said the dining roomis full and
theres a line out the door some
nights.
It gets pretty packedinhere, Reid
said, noting that many people walk
out of next-door-neighbor Bart and
Urbys and right into her shop. Ricky
Shkreli, who works at Pronto Pizza,
said the owners are planning to stay
open until 3 a.m. Fridays, too, once
the colleges fall semesters begin.
He said business has been great
and credited the bars with bringing
life after dark into downtown Wilkes-
Barre.
Without them, we wouldnt be
open (the late hours), Shkreli said.
Without them, after 6 p.m. theres
nothing.

StocksRecap
Dave Carpenter, Elizabeth Gramling AP
Investors who are selling stocks
and keeping their money in cash
face a decision: prioritize safety or
returns? Money put into bank
accounts protected by the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corp. is secure
but pays less. And money-market
mutual funds, a traditional safe
haven, are currently paying next to
nothing. Heres a look at a few of
your cash options. Unfortunately
they arent paying much.
Where
to stash
your
cash
Online savings
account
If you need to get your
cash quickly, try an online
savings account, says Greg
McBride, senior financial
analyst at Bankrate.com.
Top rates are about 1 per-
cent. The accounts are
FDIC-insured. You can also
get a linked ATM card.
CDs
If you can afford to park
cash for six months or lon-
ger, consider an FDIC-
insured bank CD. Top-
yielding CDs with a one-
year term pay up to about
1.25 percent. Yields on
longer-term CDs arent
much higher. The highest
current rate on a five-year
CD is 2.4 percent at First
Internet Bank of Indiana.
You can find more options
on Bankrate.com.
Short-term government
bond mutual funds
Some offer marginally
better yields than banks,
but theyre not insured.
Morningstar says these
funds have returned more
than 1.5 percent this year.
Its possible to lose money
in a bond fund bonds lose
value as interest rates rise.
High-yield
checking account
These accounts are
sometimes called rewards
checking accounts. They
provide greater benefits
under certain conditions.
For example, if you agree
to receive your account
statements online, set up
direct deposit or pay bills
online. These accounts pay
2.5 percent to 3 percent.
The money is insured. The
downside? You have to
meet those conditions
each month to get the top
yield. Theres usually a
cap, often $25,000, on how
much you can deposit to
earn the maximum return.
Money-market
mutual funds
Many people might
include money-market
funds among safe cash
options. They invest in
short-term debt securities
that can lose value. The
funds are not insured. In
2008, some funds lost
money because their
assets fell below the stan-
dard $1 a share. Yields
are well below that of
online savings accounts,
averaging just 0.03 per-
cent.

The low
presssure
systemthat
brought all
the rain Sunday
and Monday
is nally moving
east. Clouds
and showers
are possible
again today as
the stormpulls
away. However,
I do not expect
the heavy rain
we had in spots
over the past
48 hours.
Because of the
clouds and
showers
today,
afternoon
temperatures
will remain
in the 70s.
High pressure
will move in
tonight,
bringing the
rain to an end
and clearing
out the clouds.
Temperatures,
tonight will
dip into the
middle 50s.
- Kurt Aaron
NATIONAL FORECAST: A frontal boundary will trigger scattered showers and thunderstorms over
portions of the northern and central Plains today. Some of these storms could be strong to severe.
Low pressure will also bring showers and thunderstorms to the Northeast and the Mid-Atlantic Coast,
while sunny to partly cloudy skies can be expected over much of the Southeast.

Q: Ive heard that
calciumcan interfere
with the absorption of
certain prescription
medications. Does that
include almond milk,
yogurt and cheese too?
M.C., Atlanta,
Ga.
A: Its true that dairy products and
calciumcan bind up certain medications
in the stomach, reducing their absorp-
tion and efficacy.
Almond milk is not actually a dairy
product, so it has no effect on the ab-
sorption of medications.
Medications whose absorption can
potentially be reduced by the dairy prod-
ucts or calciumsupplements include:
Levaquin and Cipro antibiotics; iron
supplements; osteoporosis drugs like
Fosamax and Actonel; Synthroid (le-
vothyroxine) for hypothyroidism; Tetra-
cycline and Minocycline; and calcium-
channel blocker blood pressure medica-
tions like Verapamil or Norvasc. Taking
calciumsupplements or consuming
dairy products either 1hour before or 2
hours after taking these medications will
greatly help reduce interaction issues.
Q: I am76 years old and have been
afflicted with an embarrassing condition
for several months. Often, after having a
bowel movement and wiping myself
thoroughly, I find excrement in my un-
derwear the next time I have the occa-
sion to wipe. What could be causing
that?
H.Y., Bristol, Pa.
A: What youre describing sounds like
anal seepage, and there a number of
possible causes for it. First of all, there
may be a weakening of the anal sphinc-
ter muscle tone. To help with that, Id
recommend Kegel exercises that focus
on contracting the anal sphincter and
improving muscle tone. I recommend
300 or more short contraction exercises
per day each contraction lasting a few
seconds. It sounds like a lot of effort, but
you can do themthroughout the day
while sitting on your sofa or chair, wait-
ing for a traffic light while in your car,
etc. Next, Id recommend that you add
lots of extra fiber to your diet to bulk up
your stools. Probiotics (healthy bacteria)
may also help in the formof Activia
yogurt or Align probiotic supplements.
The next thing to try is eliminating,
one at a time, certain foods and drinks
fromyour diet to see if your symptoms
improve. Dietetic cakes and candies,
coffee, the Alli diet pill, snack foods that
contain Olestra/Olean, and mineral oil
are well-known causes for anal seepage.
If these suggestions dont help, Id see
a gastroenterologist for evaluation.

Recently, Katie
Valenti, 28, was
among the faithful
who gathered at
thecenter. ThePly-
mouth, Mich., na-
tive was in town
visiting from Man-
deville, La.
In January, Val-
enti was diag-
nosed with Stage
2 breast cancer.
She has had two
surgeries and
eight rounds of
chemotherapy
and will undergo
radiation therapy in August. Faith always has
been important to the Valenti family, but the
cancerhasgiventhemevenmorereasontopray.
There was a time when medicine and faith
had clear borders. Doctors treated the physical
body and religious leaders fed the spiritual
body. But thanks to a growing body of research
and the increased presence of health practitio-
nerswhosefaithispartof theirpractice, religion
and medicine are joining forces in ways far be-
yondthe hospital chaplain.
There is a fair amount of science tosubstan-
tiate the power of prayer, belief and spirituality
to positively impact the healing process, said
Dr. Michael Seidman, medical director of the
Center for Complementary and Integrative
Medicine at the Henry Ford Health System. It
matters not what you believe. It matters that
youbelieve.
Seidman, who also is a surgeon, said that on
occasion, with the familys consent, he has
prayed with his pa-
tients before sur-
gery.
I have asked if I
may join in, he
said. Im there to
reassure the family
and to bond with
them. It shows that
I, too, havefaithand
it is important to
me as well.
Valenti, who at-
tended the Detroit
healingservicewith
her mother, Karen
Valenti, agrees.
It gives you
courage tofight, Katie Valenti said. There were
some dark moments when I was first diagnosed
and after my surgeries when I didnt know if Id
makeit through. Mymomwouldsay, Sendupall

Not only is faith entering hospitals in varying
ways, hospitals have enteredhouses of worship.
In 2009, the Henry Ford systempiloted a pro-
ject aimed at reducing health disparities within
theAfrican-Americancommunity. It put kiosksin

Thisyear, aWayneStateUniver-

brain injury victims feel close to a
higher power, it can help themre-
habilitate. The study of 88 pa-
tients at the Rehabilitation Insti-
tute of Michigan in Detroit was
publishedinthe February issue of
RehabilitationPsychology.
Feeling connected to a higher
power positivelyimpactednot on-
lytheirfeelings, buttheirfunction-

to do. So they didnt just feel bet-

O N T H E W E B
Dear Abby: Your
response to Second-
hand Rose (June 11)
was well-intentioned
but wont provide
the level of interven-
tion her husband
needs. Hes clearly
a compulsive shopper and hoarder,
and her going along on his buying
trips will only lead to more family
conflict and bad feelings without
solving anything.
He needs cognitive behavioral
therapy, the sooner the better. Like all
addicts, he will probably be unwilling
to admit he needs treatment and re-
sist going. The best way to deal with
this is family intervention like
what is done with alcoholics and drug
addicts.
The family would be helped by go-
ing to Al-Anon meetings for support
and to help them understand. Just
substitute the word hoarding for al-
cohol and the picture will be clear. If
theres a Clutterers Anonymous meet-
ing nearby and he is willing to go,
that would be ideal. There are also
online meetings.
Hoarding is a serious, life-threaten-
ing and life-consuming disorder like
any other addiction. Getting better
without treatment is unlikely.
Gloria V., One Who Knows
Dear Gloria: Many readers felt as
you do, that Secondhand Roses
husband has a serious disorder
and needs professional help. One
organization that has been men-
tioned before in this column is The
Obsessive-Compulsive Foundation.
Its website is www.ocfoundation.org.
Read on:
Dear Abby: I have a suggestion
for Rose. Why not check with a local
charity and ask what it needs? Give
her husband the list and have him
search for bargains, then donate them
to the charity. Its win-win. The dona-
tion can be declared on their tax
return, they wont have loads of
clutter, the charity benefits, and her
husband can continue to use his
bargain-hunting skills.
Victoria in Olympia, Wash.
Dear Abby: Hoarding goes far be-
yond being an avid shopper or simply
a clutterbug or pack rat. Hoarding is
compulsive. It gets worse over time
and turns ones home into a danger-
ous, dusty and unhealthy place to
live. Hoarders inability to let go
overrides everything else their
families needs for functional space to
sleep, eat and prepare food.
Recently some TV shows have shed
light on this behavior. It hurts those
closest to the hoarder. Children of
hoarders are not able to visit their
parents, and the legacy of shame and
hurt of the illness goes on for a life-
time as family members realize that
stuff means more to the hoarder than
they do.
This isnt a problem someone can
fix easily. The hoarder has to be will-
ing as well, and professional interven-
tion is needed.
Adult Child of a Hoarder
Dear Abby: Is it possible that this
collector could turn his hobby into
a business? In this poor economy,
more people are buying used. Some
options would be: garage sales of his
own, or rent a small shop or space in
a consignment store. We may have a
budding entrepreneur here.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). While
you struggle in the trenches try-
ing to get what you need out of
life, some with less talent and
heart are rising quickly. Dont try
to stop them.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). It will
be easy to get so carried away
by a project that you lose track
of time, ignore phone calls and
blow off any previous goals you
had for the day. Thats how you
know youre really in the zone!
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The way
you see it, the world is loaded
with opportunities waiting to be
seized. A partner or colleague
is worried that youll do all the
seizing alone.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). You
will feel the worship of some-
ones eyes, and you will know
what it means to be adored.
Time will tell whether this is
really love or merely a passing
infatuation.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your to-do
list is pretty simple today. You
need to wash some laundry,
return that item you borrowed
and forge the essence of your
soul into the history of your
people.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You are
certain of your alliances. You
depend only on those who have
proved to be constant in word
and deed. Even then, you make
sure you have a backup plan.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Thinking
too hard about a problem
will only confuse you further.
Distance yourself from the issue.
While your conscious mind is dis-
tracted by juicy bits of life, your
subconscious will work out the
knots and find a solution.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Youll
bustle and sweat, running at an
impressive level of productivity.
Then tonight, youll drop your
weary body into bed and enjoy
the best sleep youve had in
months.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
You dont have buried anger
its right on the surface where
you can effectively do something
about it. Channel your feelings
into exercise, and youll get a
stellar workout.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
You rate well in someones book
of friendship. However, with
that high rating comes a lot of
responsibility and expectation.
Youll feel the burden of that
privilege today.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
Youre looking for a spark of
genius, and it will come from a
certain free spirit you know. This
persons revolutionary vision
will elevate you both from the
realms of normality to embrace
an extraordinary circumstance.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). A
scene that you created, cast, set
up and directed is now playing
on the stage of the world, seem-
ingly without you. You wont
mind being an invisible contribu-
tor, though.
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (Aug. 16).
Using your talents makes you
feel rich, and that feeling helps
you attract greater riches. A spe-
cial relationship will take a turn
toward deeper commitment in
the next six weeks. Youll pick up
a new skill in October. Aquarius
and Capricorn people adore you.
Your lucky numbers are: 11, 3, 26,
36 and 41.
