The unemployment rate inthe
Wilkes-Barre/Scranton region
was unchanged in November,
but remained the highest in
Pennsylvania by a wide margin.
The seasonally adjusted un-
employment rate in the Wilkes-
Barre/Scranton reporting area
that includes Luzerne, Lacka-
wanna and Wyoming counties
remained unchanged fromOcto-
ber at 9.2 percent. The rate
climbed in half of the states 14
metro areas and fell in two of
them. The Lehigh Valley area
had the second-highest unem-
ployment rate, 8.6 percent.
The local regions unemploy-
ment rate is down six tenths of a
percentage point compared to
November 2010. Thats good
news to area economists like Da-
na Harris, a business professor at
Keystone College.
She said that while she was
surprised the unemployment
rate didnt decrease from Octo-
ber, she said month-to-month
movement isnt as important as
year-to-year.
Anthony Liuzzo, director of
the master of business adminis-
tration program at Wilkes Uni-
versity, agreed. Were better off
than last year, he said. .

The rate climbed in half of the states 14 metro areas and fell in
two of them. The Lehigh Valley area had the second-highest
unemployment rate, 8.6 percent.
Thousands of Pennsylvania
residents who have their child
support payments credited to a
state-issued debit card were un-
able to access money posted to
the cards last week due to a proc-
essing error, but the problemhas
now been resolved.
Domestic relations offices
statewide, including in Luzerne
County, were flooded with calls
Tuesday from parents who did
not receive money that was sup-
posed to be de-
posited onto
the cards on
Dec. 21 and
Dec. 22.
Child sup-
port payments
are handled
through the
State Disburse-
ment and Col-
lection Unit,
which electron-
ically deposits
funds directly
to a bank ac-
count or a debit
card, known an
Eppicard. Card
holders can
then use the
card to get cash or purchase
goods at retailers.
The problem, which affected
only the debit cards, occurred af-
ter Wells FargoBank, whichproc-
esses the payments, changed the
name of the electronic file into
which deposits are made by the
state, said Ann Bale, a spokeswo-
man for the state Department of
Public Welfare, which oversees
child support enforcement.
Bale said the name change was
made without giving the state
sufficient notice, which led to er-
rors inprocessing of about $1mil-
lion in support payments to
12,158 parents statewide. The er-
ror was corrected by around 1
p.m. Tuesday, and all money has
now been credited, she said.

HARRISBURGTolls are go-
ing up again for drivers paying in
cash on the Pennsylvania Turn-
pike.
Under the new tolls that take
effect Sunday, drivers paying
with E-ZPass wont see an in-
crease.
Thefive-member Pennsylvania
Turnpike Commission approved
the toll hike in July as part of an
effort to generate money needed
to help pay off bonds that fund
highwayimprovements andmass
transit systems around the state.
This years hike marks the
fourth straight annual boost by
the commission to pay off the
bonds, and will raise approxi-
mately $23 million in new reve-
nue next year. The newrates will
mean the most common cash toll
for passenger vehicles will in-
crease from$1.10 to $1.25.
The commission said nearly
two-thirds of turnpike travelers
already use E-ZPass.

EXETER To the dismay of
some business owners, bor-
ough council at its meeting
next week will consider impos-
ing a $2,500 tax on businesses
that gross more than $500,000
annually.
I definitely wouldnt be for
it. Its hard enough trying to
make it the way it is, said Dave
Voitek Jr., owner of Voitek TV
and Appliances.
I dont think any tax hike is a
good idea at this time. The
economy is a little shaky and
anything that inhibits business
is a bad idea at this time, espe-
cially for businesses that were
hit by flooding, he said.
Ronne Kurlancheek, owner
of Kurlancheek Furniture, said
any new tax is a burden to a
business, but I think we can
adapt to it.
Matt DePrimo, of Barber
Ford, called the proposed tax
another shot at the local busi-
nessman.
Obviously, Im opposed to
any taxes that target business-
es. We pay a lot in property
Exeters proposed business tax stirs concerns
AIMEE DILGER/THE TIMES LEADER
Barber Ford in Exeter will have to pay an additional $2,500 in
taxes if council adopts a new business privilege ordinance.
State law forbids a
percentage tax on receipts,
but not a flat rate.

WILKES-BARRE A city
man sentenced earlier this
month to seven to 14 years in
state prison for his role in a $3.6
million cocaine distribution ring
has asked a judge to reduce the
length of his sentence.
John Ricci, 38, with a last
known address of Gilligan
Street, was sentenced on Dec.
16 by Luzerne County Judge
Thomas Burke on several drug-
related charges he had previous-
ly pleaded guilty to.
Prosecutors say Ricci partici-
pated in the drug ring operated
by members of the Outlaws
Motorcycle Club, which distrib-
uted cocaine throughout the
area beginning in July 2008.
In court papers filed Tuesday
through his attorney, John Do-
novan, Ricci said he should be
given a reduced sentence be-
cause he has no significant
criminal history in that the
drug charges are the first felony
charges he has faced; and be-
cause Ricci has testified for
prosecutors on several occasions
at local preliminary hearings
and before the state-wide grand
jury against a number of his
co-defendants.

PENSACOLA, FLA.
Powell begins his sentence
Former attorney Robert Powell
began his 18-month prison sentence
Tuesday.
Powell reported at around 2 p.m.
Tuesday to FPC Pensacola, a federal
minimum-security prison camp hous-
ing male offenders, according to his
attorney, Joseph DAndrea. The camp
is located on Saufley Field, an outlying
base of the Pensacola
Naval Air Station in
northwestern Florida.
Powell was origi-
nally ordered to re-
port to prison Nov.
30, but U.S. District
Judge Edwin Kosik
granted a request to
postpone his report
date until Tuesday so Powell could be
with his wife while she underwent
surgery to remove a cancerous tumor.
Powell pleaded guilty in July 2009
to charges of failing to report a crime
relating to his payment of $772,500 in
kickbacks to former Luzerne County
judges Michael Conahan and Mark
Ciavarella.
Inmates at FPC Pensacola have
access to jobs at the adjacent naval
base and to a variety of leisure-time
activities, including intramural sports,
lawn games, music, weekly movie
screenings sometimes held in the base
theater and educational and occupa-
tional training, according to the U.S.
Bureau of Prisons.

Longtime pastor honored
Congregants filled Ss. Cyril and
Methodius Ukrainian Catholic Church
on River Street on Tuesday to honor
the 100th birthday of their longtime
pastor, the Very Rev. Mitred Arch-
Priest Msgr. Stephen Hrynuck.
Born Dec. 27, 1911, to Michael and
Anastasia (Chesak) Hrynuck, the
monsignor was in-
spired to become a
priest after the ordi-
nation of his brother,
John. In April 1938,
Hrynuck was or-
dained by the late
Bishop Alexander
Yevreinow.
He arrived in Oly-
phant in 1952 and served as pastor of
Ss. Cyril and Methodius for 57 years
until the appointment of the Rev.
Nestor Iwasiw in 2009.
One hundred years God has given
me, Hrynuck said. Ill be grateful
until the end of this life that 100 years
ago God called me to this world, and
73 years ago God gave me the grace to
become a priest.
Hrynuck said he never thought he
would reach his 100th birthday and
that he is the only priest still living of
the nine ordained with him in 1938.
WASHINGTON, D.C.
Casey seeks warning funds
U.S. Sen. Bob Casey, D-Scranton, on
Tuesday called on the Department of
Commerce to include robust funding
for flood forecasting systems and
weather monitoring technologies in
the 2012 National Oceanic and Atmo-
spheric Administration budget.
NOAA, which provides funding for
river basin commissions to do flood
forecasting, received $4.9 billion for
fiscal year 2012 from the Senate Ap-
propriations Committee, up $306
million over 2011. NOAA and the De-
partment of Commerce are responsib-
le for deciding how to distribute those
funds.
In a letter to Commerce Secretary
John Bryson, Casey
recalled the devas-
tation wrought by
tropical storms Lee
and Irene and encour-
aged NOAA to sup-
port proposals that
improve forecasting
of severe weather.
The Susquehanna
River Basin Commission in 2011 lost
federal funding for its Susquehanna
Flood Forecast and Warning System,
which monitors river levels and pro-
vides early warning of floods. The
National Weather Service, the SRBC
and its member-state agencies in-
cluding the Pennsylvania Department
of Environmental Protection have
kept the system running in the ab-
sence of federal dollars.
The SRBC at its most recent meet-
ing in Plains Township Dec. 15 re-
quested Congress provide NOAA $2.4
million for the forecast system in 2012.

Matt said the club members offered
an old-fashioned sense of humor.
I think everybody feels better when

FORTY FORT A music teacher
at Wyoming Seminary Lower School
was placed on administrative leave
when the school was notified in No-
vember of an investigation by Forty
Fort police.
Robert Lugiano, of Shavertown,
could not be reached for comment.
Several attempts last week and on
Tuesday to contact Lugiano were un-
successful.
Lugiano is a music teacher and
band director at the lower school
campus in Forty Fort.
Forty Fort police officer Bill Stone
said he could not provide details of
the investigation. He did say the in-
vestigation is ongoing, and the Lu-
zerne County District Attorneys Of-
fice is involved.
No charges have been filed.
In an undated letter sent to par-
ents, Wyoming Seminary President
Kip P. Nygren said he placed Lugiano
on official administrative leave effec-
tive Nov. 18.
On Nov. 17, the school was made
aware that the Forty Fort Borough
Police opened an investigation of Bob
Lugiano for an alleged incident that
may have taken place on campus,
Nygrens letter says. It is believed
that no student or other member of
the Wyoming Seminary community
was involved in the alleged incident.
Wyoming Seminary takes any allega-
tion of this sort extremely seriously
and I placed Bob on official adminis-
trative leave effective November 18.
Nygren did not return messages for
comment.
Nygrens letter informs parents that
Lugianos responsibilities in the per-
forming arts department will be han-
dled by other staff members.
At this time, I have not been given
any further updates on the status of
the investigation, Nygren wrote.
The safety and security of our stu-
dents and all members of our com-
munity are paramount in every action
we take.

TEHRAN, IRAN
Iran threatens on oil route
I
rans official news agency on Tuesday
quoted a top official as saying Iran
will close the Strait of Hormuz, cutting
off oil exports, if the West imposes
sanctions on Irans oil shipments.
According to the IRNA report Tues-
day Vice President Mohamed Reza
Rahimi said Iran does not want hostil-
ities but charged that the West contin-
ues its plots against Iran.
The West is considering limiting
Irans oil trade over its disputed nuclear
program. Some 80 percent of Irans
foreign revenue comes from oil ex-
ports.
In Washington, State Department
spokesman Mark Toner called the
threat bluster.
STAMFORD, CONN.
Embers caused fatal fire
Connecticut officials said Tuesday a
Christmas morning fire that killed a
couple and three of their grandchildren
was caused by old fireplace embers.
Officials say the fire was an accident
caused by hot fireplace embers that
were discarded near a mudroom on the
first floor of the house.
The officials say it isnt clear if the
home had working smoke detectors.
Stamford Mayor Michael Pavia calls
it a tragic accident.
The preliminary information is it
was just a tragic accident, he said,
adding that foul play had been ruled
out.
DETROIT
Escorts seen as targets
Detroit police fear that a killer may
be targeting escorts after finding that
three of four women found dead in car
trunks within blocks of each other this
month had placed sex-related ads on
the same website.
Attorneys general for 45 states had
raised concerns earlier this year about
how the site, Backpage.com, polices
ads for adult services.
Police Chief Ralph Godbee said
authorities find the link disconcert-
ing. The deaths could be connected,
Godbee said, though he has said police
were stopping short of calling it the
work of a serial killer.
The latest victims were found Christ-
mas morning, when Detroit firefighters
discovered their badly burned bodies in
the trunk of a car that had been set
ablaze in a garage. They were identi-
fied as women ages 28 and 29, and
police were awaiting a determination
from the medical examiners office on
cause of death.
WASHINGTON
Borrowing limit hike sought
The Obama administration will ask
Congress to raise the nations borrow-
ing limit by $1.2 trillion this week,
marking the third and final increase
from a deal negotiated over summer.
Treasury officials said Tuesday that
the increase is necessary because the
government will be within $100 billion
of its current limit by Friday.
The debt limit is the amount the
government can borrow to finance its
operations. The latest increase will
boost that limit to $16.4 trillion. Offi-
cials say that should be enough to
allow the government to keep borrow-
ing until the end of 2012 just after
the presidential election.
Congress can reject the request,
although Obama can veto their ob-
jection. If Congress doesnt act by Jan.
14, the increase will take place auto-
matically.

DES MOINES, Iowa Re-
publican presidential candi-
date Mitt Romney carried him-
self Tuesday like a man with
the party nomination in hand,
even before the first votes have
been cast, while a newly un-
earthed memo showed chief ri-
val Newt Gingrich once of-
fered glowing praise for what
Romney did for health care in
Massachusetts as governor.
Romney spent the first part
of the day in New Hampshire
while most of his GOP rivals
rumbled through Iowas small
towns by bus in a final, fren-
zied dash of retail politicking
before the Iowa caucuses in ex-
actly one week.
Im not exactly sure how all
this is going to work, but I
think Imgoing to get the nom-
ination if we do our job right,
Romney said inside a packed
dining room at the Coach Stop
restaurant in Londonderry,
N.H.
Ignoring his GOP rivals, the
former governor targeted Pres-
ident Barack Obama instead,
accusing him of trying to turn
the U.S. into an entitlement
nation.
Romney also signaled anoth-
er line of attack against the
Democrat in which he would
ask voters, Do you think
youre better off than you were
four years ago?
We know the answer to
that one, Romney said with a
smile.
Meanwhile, a 2006 memo by
Gingrich showed that he once
praised the health care law
Romney put in place in Mas-
sachusetts as governor. Rom-
neys rivals, including Gin-
grich, have tried to tar him for
enacting the series of health
care changes.
Gingrich called the law the
most exciting development of
the past few weeks and one
with tremendous potential to
effect major change in the
American health system.

FORTWAYNE, Ind. Ababy-
sitter and trusted neighbor has
confessedthat hebludgeoneda9-
year-old Indiana girl to death
with a brick then dismembered
her, hiding her head, hands and
feet at a home where he was stay-
ing and dumping the rest of her
remains nearby, police said Tues-
day.
Allen County sheriffs investi-
gators said in an affidavit that 39-
year-old Michael Plumadore ad-
mits he killed
Aliahna Lem-
mon on Thurs-
day.
According to
the affidavit,
Plumadore told
police that after
beating Aliahna
to death on the
front steps of the home in the
early morning hours, he stuffed
her body into trash bags and hid
her in the freezer at the home in a
rundown trailer park in Fort
Wayne. He said he later chopped
up her body with a hacksaw and
stuffed her remains into freezer
bags.
Police said Plumadore told
them he had hidden Aliahnas
head, feet and hands at the trailer
and discarded her other remains
at a nearby business. Police ob-
tained a warrant to search the
trailer on Monday and found the
body parts.
Authorities didnt say Tuesday
why Plumadore killed the child,
but Sheriff Ken Fries said investi-
gators suspected Plumadore was
involved since soon after she was
reported missing Friday night.
Investigators questioned him
Friday and Saturday and he was
arrested Monday after being in-
terviewedby detectives for sever-
al hours more.
Fries saidhis longpolice career
told him that Plumadores ac-
count of the girls disappearance
had too many inconsistencies.
Things that were said in 29
years of doing this that just didnt
make sense, Fries said during a
Tuesday news conference. We
needed to get him to talk.
Fries said Plumadore was fac-
tual in talking with investiga-
tors, but he wouldnt describe
Plumadores demeanor.
A judge ordered Plumadore
held without bail or bond at an
initial hearing Tuesday, sheriffs
department spokesman Cpl. Jer-
emy Tinkel said. He has yet to be
formally charged in Aliahnas
death.

BEIRUT Syrias army suspended
days of punishing attacks on the restive
city of Homs and began withdrawing its
tanks Tuesday just as Arab League mon-
itors visited the area, activists and offi-
cials said.
Huge crowds poured into the streets
shortly after the pullback, shouting de-
fiantly that they will not be cowed by the
crackdown.
Amateur video showed tens of thou-
sands flooding the streets of the city,
which had been under siege for days, to
march in a funeral.
They carried the open casket overhead
with the exposed face of an older man
with a white beard.
Listen Bashar: If you fire bullets, gre-
nades or shells at us, we will not be
scared, one personshoutedto the crowd
through loudspeakers. Many were wav-
ing Syrias independence flag, which pre-
dates the 1963 ascendancy of President
Bashar Assads Baath party to power.
About 60 Arab League monitors the
first Syrias regime has allowed in during
its nine-monthcrackdownonananti-gov-
ernment uprising began work Tues-
day. They are there to ensure compliance
with the Leagues plan to halt violence
against mostly unarmed, peaceful protes-
ters and the pullback in Homs was the
first tangible sign Assad was implement-
ing any of the terms.
After signing on to the plan early last
week, Assads regime had only intensi-
fied the violence, rather than easing up,
andit was condemnedinternationally for
flouting the agreement.
Government troops killed hundreds in
just the past week. On Monday, security
forces killed at least 42 people, most of
them in Homs.

WASHINGTON Ameri-
cans probably wont be seeing
a huge ticker-tape parade any-
time soonfor troops returning
from Iraq, and its not clear if
veterans of the nine-year cam-
paign will ever enjoy the
grand, flag-waving, red-white-
and-blue homecoming that
the nations fighting men and
women received after World
War II and the Gulf War.
Officials in New York and
Washingtonsay they wouldbe
happy to help stage a big cele-
bration, but Pentagon officials
say they havent been asked to
plan one.
With tens of thousands of
U.S. troops still fighting in Af-
ghanistan, anythingthat looks
like a big victory celebration
couldbeseenas unseemlyand
premature, some say.
Its going to be a bit awk-
ward to be celebrating too
much, given how much there
is going on and how much
there will be going on in Af-
ghanistan, said Don Mrozek,
a military history professor at
Kansas State University.
Two NewYork City council-
men have called for a ticker-
tape parade down the stretch
of Broadway known as the Ca-
nyonof Heroes. Asimilar cele-
bration after the Gulf War was
paid for with more than $5.2
million in private donations, a
model the councilmen would
like to follow.

SAN BERNARDINO, Calif.
A California man was
charged on Tuesday with at-
tempted murder in the shooting
of anAfghanistanwar veteranat
a homecoming party during
what authorities saidwas a fight
over football teams.
But the attorney for 19-year-
old Ruben Ray Jurado said his
client was apparently under at-
tack when shots were fired at
Christopher Sullivan at the par-
ty to welcome himhome for the
holidays.
Prosecutors in San Bernardi-
no County charged Jurado with
attempted murder and multiple
sentencing enhancements for
using a firearm.
Jurado had surrendered him-
self to authorities a day earlier
for investigation in the shooting
that critically wounded the 22-
year-old Pur-
ple Heart re-
cipient.
Authorities
said Jurado,
who had
played foot-
ball with Sulli-
van in high school, began argu-
ing with Sullivans brother over
football teams at the party Fri-
day night and then punched
him.
Sullivan intervened and Jura-
do pulled a gun and opened fire,
hitting Sullivan in the neck, po-
lice said.
Sullivan remains in critical
condition.
His relatives say the gunfire
shattered his spine and left him
paralyzed from the neck down.
Hes opening his eyes more,
his 20-year-old brother Brandon
Sullivan told the Associated
Press.
Were just waiting day by
day.
Sullivan was wounded in a su-
icide bombing attack last year
while serving with the military
in Afghanistan.
He suffered a cracked collar-
bone andbraindamage inthe at-
tack and had been recovering in
Kentucky, whereheis stationed,
before coming home for the ho-
lidays.
Defense attorney Michael J.
Holmes said earlier on Tuesday
that he wanted to talk to his cli-
ent and the district attorney be-
fore commenting further on the
case.
It appears that he was being
attacked and he was on the
ground and was being kicked in
the back, stomach, the head,
and that is consistent with the
injuries that I observed,
Holmes said. It is alleged at
that point that Mr. Sullivan was
shot.
Sullivan was an avid wrestler
and football player in high
school in San Bernardino, about
60 miles east of Los Angeles. He
had nine months to go in the
military and then planned to be-
come a firefighter or police officer.
He always liked to help people,
his brother said.
Say there was a person at
school who never had friends or
nothingChris wouldbetheper-
son who would go up to him and
try to be his friend. He didnt like
peopletofeel alone, BrandonSul-
livan said. He always had a smile
on his face.
On Friday night, Sullivans
friendPeter Baltimore saidhe was
supposed to attend the party but
didnt make it. The 21-year-old
said he called his friend the next
morning and was surprised when
it went to voicemail because Sulli-
van always answered his phone.
You dont think something like
that would happen at a homecom-
ing party for someone who has
been serving their country, said
Baltimore, who had planned to
train with Sullivan, a fellowmixed
martial arts fighter, in the coming
year.
Were all praying for him.

GRAPEVINE, Texas A 56-
year-old suburban Dallas man
facing marital and financial
problems killed his estranged
wife, two teenage children and
three other family members on
Christmas Day while dressed as
Santa Claus before turning the
gun on himself, authorities said
Tuesday.
A police spokeswoman said
Aziz Yazdanpanah died of a self-
inflicted gunshot wound and the
six others were shot to death.
Police responding Sunday
morning to a 911 call made with-
out anyone on the line found the
seven people inside an apart-
ment near Dallas-Fort Worth In-
ternational Airport. It appeared
they had been opening presents
around their Christmas tree just
before the attack.
Yazdanpanah became the fo-
cus of detectives after his SUV
was found outside the apart-
ment and police believe he made
the silent 911 call. The slayings
have shaken friends and neigh-
bors who knew Yazdanpanah
and his wife, both of whom were
born in Iran, as well as their two
U.S.-born children.
The Persian community is
devastated, said Mashy Modj-
dehi, a friend of both Yazdan-
panahs wife of 24 years, Fate-
mah Rahmati, as well as her sis-
ter, Zohreh, who also was killed.
In addition to Yazdanpanah,
authorities said those killed
were Rahmati, 55, their daugh-
ter Nona, 19, their son Ali, 14,
Zohreh Rahmaty, 58, Zohrehs
husband, Mohamad Hossein Za-
rei, 59, and their daughter, Sara
Fatemeh Zarei, 22.
Grapevine police spokesman
Robert Eberling said Tuesday
that detectives believe Yazdan-
panahs marital and financial
troubles led him to kill his fam-
ily.
Thats kind of what were
looking at now, Eberling said.
We have been speaking to fam-
ily members and hope to find
out more.
Modjdehi said Yazdanpanahs
wife moved out of the couples
3,010-square-foot home in Col-
leyville in April and into the
apartment complex two miles
away. The two children moved
with her.
Rahmati, known to family and
friends as Nasrin, filed for bank-
ruptcy in August 2010, and she
told her attorney she hoped the
proceedings would stave off fore-
closure of the home where the
family had lived for more than a
decade.
She separated from Yazdanpa-
nah in the midst of the bank-
ruptcy and the proceedings were
later dismissed because she
failed to make the plan pay-
ments, said the attorney, George
Barnes. He said his notes show
that Rahmati told him, Please
dont talk to the husband at all.
Barnes said Yazdanpanah ini-
tially accompanied his wife to
meetings related to the bank-
ruptcy and listed his occupation
as self-employed.
According to federal court re-
cords, Yazdanpanah was placed
on three years probation in 1996
after pleading guilty to one
count of subscribing to a false
income tax return. He also was
fined $1,000 and required to pay
$30,119 in restitution to the U.S.
Department of Justice.
Three years later, Yazdanpa-
nah and his wife filed jointly for
bankruptcy. That case was dis-
charged in a matter of months.

ed reader, talented cook and baker.

cookies and making Thanksgiving
stuffing with her grandchildren.

professional career but none as dear

the principal at Gate of Heaven
School, and secretary at Easter
Seals in West Palm Beach, Fla.

HARVEYS LAKE -- A man was
arraigned Tuesday in Wilkes-
Barre Central Court on charges
he tried to disarma police officer
anddamageda cruiser by kicking
a window.
Matthew S. Epright III, 52, of
May Avenue, was charged with
disarminga lawenforcement offi-
cer, simple assault, resisting ar-
rest, terroristic threats, criminal
mischief, disorderly conduct and
harassment. He was jailed at the
Luzerne County Correctional Fa-
cility for lack of $5,000 bail.
According to the criminal com-
plaint:
Police investigated a fight in-
volving Epright and his son, Mat-
thew Epright IV, 28, at their May
Avenue residence just after 8:30
p.m. Monday.
The elder Epright stormed out
of a room and threatened his son
saying, I am
gonna put a bul-
let in your (ex-
pletive), the
complaint says.
Epright told po-
lice he was not
going to be ar-
rested and
struggled with officer Thomas
Nalbone.
Lehman Township officer
Charles Musial arrived at the
house and assisted Nalbone in ar-
resting Epright.
Epright was being escorted to
an ambulance for chest pain.
When handcuffs were removed
from his wrists, police said, he
grabbed Musials handgun and
triedtoremove it fromits holster.
Musial stunned Epright with a
Taser to prevent the gun frombe-
ing pulled from the holster, the
complaint says.
Epright was seated in the rear
of a police cruiser and allegedly
kicked out a window.
The younger Epright told po-
lice they were at a bar drinking
and his father became violent
when they arrived home.
Police said the younger
Epright suffered facial injuries
andthe elder Epright was treated
at Geisinger Wyoming Valley
Medical Center, Plains Town-
ship, for chest pain.
Apreliminary hearingis sched-
uled on Jan. 5 before District
Judge James Tupper in Kingston
Township.

Epright WILKES-BARRE Workers
and customers were shaken but
unharmed after an armed rob-
bery at the Queen Nails salon at
the corner of SouthMainandSul-
livan Street on Tuesday evening.
According to a salon manager,
who declined to give her name,
shortly before 7 p.m. a man burst
into the salon, waved a handgun
and demanded the six workers
and four customers inside hand
over their money.
In addition to an undeter-
mined amount of cash, the rob-
ber alsomade off withthe phones
andother items belonging to cus-
tomers. He fled on foot into a
parking lot across South Main
Street toward Bank of America,
the woman said.
Wilkes-Barre police are investi-
gating.
The salon manager described
the suspect as a black male ap-
proximately 22 to 24 years old,
medium build and standing
about 5 feet, 10 inches tall. He
carried a silver handgun, possi-
bly a .38 caliber, she said.
Witnesses also indicated a sec-
ond person may have acted as a
lookout outside the salon, which
is brightly lit and wrapped in
large windows offering unob-
structed views inside.
The woman said she and other
victims of the robbery were
shaken but otherwise OK after
the holdup.

Writer sees good reasons
to allow Sunday hunting
I
dont understand why there is no hunt-
ing allowed on Sundays in Pennsylvania.
There are several reasons why it should
be permitted.
Many deaths are caused by animals each
year, including about 150 auto-related
nationwide. If hunting were allowed on
Sundays, we might be able to reduce the
number of accidents each year. Pennsylva-
nia was ranked as first in deer-auto colli-
sions in a State Farm Insurance survey.
Wild animals can carry diseases, and an
overpopulation of animals can make those
diseases spread. Small game, such as rac-
coons, skunks and weasels, can carry ra-
bies. Several members of my family had to
get rabies shots because a rabid raccoon
bit our dog. Deer can carry deer ticks,
which can transmit Lyme disease and
Rocky Mountain spotted fever.
Wild animals cost people money when
the areas we inhabit overlap. Bears can
damage cars and property, and they might
endanger humans when looking for food.
An estimated $1.1 billion is spent on car
repairs each year from deer-versus-auto
accidents. Deer eat expensive shrubs, and
rabbits eat greens from gardens, costing
people hard-earned time and money.
If Sunday hunting were allowed, it
would add a total of 24 days of hunting
over an entire year. Im still in school and I
have time to hunt only on weekends.
Our neighbors in New York have the
ability to hunt on Sundays. Given all this
information, I am not sure why Pennsylva-
nia still does not allow Sunday hunting.

Budget amendment
would rein in spending
E
fforts finally are being made to get
absurd government spending under
control. Congressmen Lou Barletta and
Tom Marino support the idea that our
government should be held to a standard
and forced to curb its trillion-dollar spend-
ing habit.
Unfortunately for taxpayers and future
generations, there hasnt been a system in
place effective enough to prevent wasteful
spending. A Balanced Budget Amendment
would change that by forcing our govern-
ment to spend within its means. In the
interest of our nations fiscal stability, we
need to keep future generations from being
saddled with mountains of debt.
Thank you, Congressmen Barletta and
Marino, for your support of a sorely need-
ed amendment. Its about time someone
stands up against outrageous government
spending.

THE TIMES LEADER www.timesleader.com WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 28, 2011 PAGE 11A
IT IS one of the most impor-
tant public health measures
in a generation, one that will
save tens of thousands of
American lives. It will pro-
tect the IQ of countless
American kids, and help
clear the air for the millions of Americans
with asthma. It might be the biggest health
story youve never heard of.
Im referring to the ruling the Obama ad-
ministration unveiled Dec. 21 to control toxic
mercury pollution from coal-burning power
plants. These rules have been 21 years in the
making, and now, at long last, they will bring
Americans some relief from a pervasive toxin.
The United States always has shown good
sense when taking on hazardous substances
in our environment. We banned lead in gaso-
line and paint after scientific research proved
it was harming our children. We joined the
world in banning CFC refrigerants after scien-
tists demonstrated they were depleting the
Earths ozone layer. And we took strong ac-
tion to reduce sulfur emissions from coal
plants, which were poisoning our forests and
lakes with acid rain.
Now we have taken aim at another Public
Enemy: mercury.
Why is this such a big deal? For many
Americans, it might come as a surprise that
mercury contamination is even a problem.
Moms will know that doctors warn against
eating too much canned tuna, but might not
be sure how the mercury gets in the fish.
Every year, U.S. power plants release al-
most 50 tons of mercury into the environ-
ment. When coal is burned, some of the
mercury in it deposits locally and some can
travel hundreds of miles to contaminate riv-
ers, lakes, animals, plants and ultimately our
bodies.
Mercury is highly toxic.
Mercury exposure, especially in infants and
children and developing fetuses, can lead to
serious neurological problems, including
impacts on thinking, memory, language and
fine motor skills. Scientists at New Yorks
Mount Sinai Center for Childrens Health and
the Environment have estimated that mercu-
ry exposure causes reductions in intelligence
for between 316,500 and 637,200 American
children each year, and also causes disrup-
tions in behavior. Most of these effects will
last a lifetime.
Many of the other toxic pollutants con-
trolled by these rules such as chromium,
arsenic and dioxin are known or probable
carcinogens and can attack the brain, lungs,
liver and kidneys.
Industry lobbyists always have complained
about measures to protect the environment
and public health. The Clean Air Act would
lead to the collapse of entire industries, said
the U.S. Chamber of Commerce in 1971.
Phasing out CFCs would kill the refrigeration
business. Removing lead from gasoline would
mean huge price hikes.
Despite these wild predictions, the sky
never fell, the American economy continued
to prosper and costs have been far out-
weighed by the public health benefits.
President Obama and Environmental Pro-
tection Agency Administrator Lisa Jackson
were right to stand firm on this rule. The new
regulations will impose some costs, but they
will save far more in public health benefits.
And heres what the coal lobbyists arent
telling you:
Canned albacore tuna has become so
contaminated by mercury that children under
6 should be restricted to, at most, one meal a
month. Children ages 6 to 12 should eat no
more than two meals a month.
All 48 of the continental United States
had mercury fish consumption advisories as
of March 2011.
The new mercury and air toxics rule has
been in the works since 1990 long enough
for the electric utilities to prepare. Many, to
their credit, have done just that, and they
support the new rules. But a few outliers
didnt make the necessary investments, be-
tting they could endlessly delay the new
rules. They are the ones making the most
noise.
Sorry, times up. Twenty-one years is long
enough to wait for such a big, life-saving win.

Defense Fund. He wrote this for McClatchy-Tribune
News Service.
Curb on mercury emissions a win for public health
COMMENTARY
F R E D K R U P P
A
S FEDERAL AND
stategovernments pull
back on child-care aid
and struggle to find af-
fordable ways to help families
withproblems of elder care, fam-
ily advocates are looking to the
private sector for more help.
Theyre urging employers to let
caregivers have more flexible
schedules to ease the burden of
looking after young children and
frail parents.
Doing so can actually pay off
for both the worker and the em-
ployer, as suggested by research-
ers writingfor the Future of Chil-
drens WorkandFamilyproject, a
collaboration between Princeton
University and the Brookings In-
stitution.
Flexible schedules can allow
caregivers to work around their
family obligations, which cuts
down on unexpected absen-
teeismandthefirings that canre-
sult. It would lead to higher pro-
ductivity and a healthier work-
place environment.
Whencaregiversarefiredfrom
workforlivinguptotheirrespon-
sibilities at home, its an expen-
sive move for the employer. Re-
placing even a minimum-wage
worker costs about 20 percent of
the workers salary, according to
Heather Boushey, of the Center
for American Progress.
Comptime, split shifts andjob
sharing are tools employers can
use to give employees some flex-
ibility.
Addedtothepressures of care-
giving, workershavehadtocover
for others laid off in this sluggish
economy. They have watched
their own salaries shrink. Its on-
ly fair that employers, which
havebeenabletosurvivearough
economy thanks to employees
extrasweat for lesspay, workthis
out.
The Philadelphia Inquirer
OTHER OPINION: THE WORKPLACE
Offer employees

A
S ANOTHER YEAR
reaches its final
stage, we reflect on
things old and new
and wonder which has greater
value.
A 15-year-old gym shoe
doesnt typically holdmuchap-
peal. Fashion a new Nike
sneaker after a 1996 hot seller,
however, and you apparently
can slap a $180 price tag on it,
market it as a limited release
andsendpeople into fits to buy
a pair. Pre-Christmas shoppers
in pursuit of retro Air Jordans
jostled and fought and, in at
least one instance, knifedone
another to carry home the cov-
eted footwear.
For that kind of cash, why
not scoop up four pairs of
Chuck Taylors? Or a decent
wingtip?
Cities such as Cleveland
presumably to be joined in
2012 by Wilkes-Barre are
knocking down empty homes
to make certain neighbor-
hoods more appealing. If not
already plundered, might old
appliances and building mate-
rials from within those homes
bereused? Might theyhaveval-
ue to a Habitat for Humanity
chapter or a charitable outfit
such as Green Demolitions in
Honesdale (www.greendemo-
litions.com)?
Likewise, if the city of
Wilkes-Barre makes way for
something new at the down-
town Hotel Sterling site, cant
elements of the old structure
be incorporated into the new
design? Or, perhaps, can arti-
facts from the hotel be pre-
served(or put tonewuse) else-
where in the community?
The nearly 154-year-old
Luzerne County Historical So-
cietyaims toincreaseits ability
to collect and maintain pieces
of our collective past by boost-
ing its membership and raising
more money.
In order to accomplish our
missionandcontinue to accept
collections of manuscripts,
books and museum objects,
states a letter distributed by
the society earlier this month,
we need to expand our ar-
chive and make the most effi-
cient use of our existing
space.
The nonprofit organization
intends to double its member-
ship in the next four years, to
2,000, according to the letter.
Similarly, it seeks over that
multiyear span to raise $1.6
million for its endowment,
bringing the funds total to $3
million.
At first glance, those might
look like lofty numbers. Then
again, if certain people literally
fight for the opportunity to
part with $180 for a pair of
sneakers, almost no amount
seems extraordinary to pre-
serve a countys history in per-

fessor at Misericordia Universi-
ty, said he was hopeful that the
rate would drop, even slightly,
but he heard from many local
employers that holiday hiring
wasnt going to be what it had
been in past years.
Sales were off all year and
they probably told employees to
work harder, more hours and
maybe even qualify for overtime,
but they were not going to bring
in extra people this year, Mel-
lon said.
Liuzzo said while he had
hoped to see a drop in the rate
from October because of expec-
tations that retailers would hire
seasonal workers to handle holi-
day sales, it wasnt a real down-
er for me.
Harris and Liuzzo said theyre
seeing indications that the tide
is turning, albeit slowly.
The overall march is in the
right direction, but the drum
beat is slow right now, Liuzzo
said.
He said the national employ-
ment situation is showing posi-
tive signs and that should begin
trickling down to the state and
local levels.
The United States unemploy-
ment rate decreased four-tenths
of a point to 8.6 percent last
month while Pennsylvanias rate
decreased two-tenths of a point
to 7.9 percent.
At the national level were
seeing some significant improve-
ment, Liuzzo said. And reports
of holiday sales increasing near-
ly 4 percent over 2010 mean peo-
ple believe were in a recovery
rather than a recession.
Were looking at a recovery
here. The question is how fast or
slow, he added.
The local data is included in a
report released today by the De-
partment of Labor and Indus-
trys Center for Workforce Infor-
mation & Analysis.
Among the data highlighted in
the monthly report for the
Wilkes-Barre/Scranton region
are:
All of the positive move-
ment, both short-term and long-
term, has been within service-
providing industries. Goods-pro-
ducing industries were down
slightly both over the month and
over the year.
Leisure and hospitality em-
ployment showed a normal sea-
sonal decline in November, but
was up 500 from a year ago. This
was the 14th consecutive month
that the supersector showed an
over-the-year increase.
Retail trade showed a sea-
sonal increase of 1,400 jobs. This
gain matched the previous re-
cord increase, first set in Novem-
ber 2007.
Professional and business
services added 900 jobs in No-
vember. The increase was main-
ly driven by temporary hires at
the Amazon.com warehouse in
Hazle Township. The profession-
al and business services super-
sector increased 4.5 percent lo-
cally over the year, compared to
a 0.5 percent increase statewide.
Education and health servic-
es continued strong growth, add-
ing 800 jobs since November
2010.
When broken out by individu-
al counties, Lackawanna (down
one-tenth to 8.8 percent) and
Wyoming (down six-tenths to
8.6 percent) saw declines in the
unemployment rate, but Lu-
zerne saw a one-tenth of a per-
centage point increase to 9.5 per-
cent.

They gave us very little time
to make the change in our sys-
tem. We worked to make the
change, but some mistakes were
made, Bale said.
The timing of the glitch, just a
fewdays before Christmas, made
for a rough holiday for parents
like Kathryn Mineo of Swoyers-
ville, who said she was unable to
pay for Christmas presents for
her 18-year-old disabled son.
Mineo said it was particularly
difficult because the state had
withheldpart of her previous sup-
port payment after determining
she hadreceivedanoverpayment
for an unrelated reason.
This was a really bad time be-
cause they withheld half of my
previous payment in December.
It was like, thanks for the warn-
ing right before Christmas. I was
already behind, Mineo said.
Bale said DPW realizes the er-
ror came at a bad time. State offi-
cials worked as quickly as possi-
ble to rectify the problem.
The timing of the glitch was
not good. Fortunately, the money
is now on the cards, she said.
Mineo said shes also upset be-
cause she suspects she is going to
be hit with some additional
charges because there is a fee
charged to anyone who uses the
phone tochecktheir balance. She
saidshecalledthelinerepeatedly
over the past several days to
check if the money was there.
Bale said Eppicard allows us-
ers to check balances six times a
month for free. After that there is
a 25-cent charge per call, but
there are no plans at this time to
reimburse users who were
charged.

That might have been an op-
tion for Exeter about 25 years
ago, but the Local Tax Reform
Act of 1988 prohibits the impo-
sition of any new business tax
based on a percentage of gross
receipts after Nov. 30, 1988, ac-
cording to the Taxation Manual
from the Governors Center for
Local Government Services.
But the act does not prohibit
new flat-rate business privilege
taxes, according to the manual.
Borough council President
Richard Murawski said hes
aware of only two other bor-
oughs in the state that charge
such a tax. He said the idea was
suggested as a possible source
of revenue to council by the
boroughs tax collector, Don
Wilkinson Agency.
Murawski said finding ade-
quate revenue for the borough
has become increasingly diffi-
cult over the past few years.
Our revenue sources are
drying up. The last few budget
meetings have been difficult.
Something has to give. Weve
been crunching as much as we
can on the expenses side. The
new council will have to take a
taxes the way it is, DePrimo
said.
All three business owners
thought it would be fairer to
tax a percentage of sales rather
than a flat rate, with some not-
ing that $2,500 could be bur-
densome to small-business
owners who have small mark-
ups while it would be a drop in
the bucket to a retail giant like
Walmart that is expected to
open in the borough in 2013.
Charging a percentage-based
business privilege tax is what
cities such as Wilkes-Barre and
Hazleton do.
Hazletons tax carries a rate
of 0.2 percent of gross receipts
on services and rentals and 0.1
percent on retail and wholesale
gross receipts; businesses that
gross less than $5,000 are ex-
empt. Wilkes-Barre charges
rates of 0.15 percent for whole-
sale and 0.225 percent on re-
tail.
look at it, he said.
Murawski will see his 20-year
tenure on council end when
new members take their seats
Jan. 3.
Councilman-Elect Larry Del-
legrotto said a business privi-
lege tax was brought up briefly
at a prior council meeting, but
no details were ever released to
the public and he had no infor-
mation on the proposed ordi-
nance.
Council also will consider
amending an amusement tax
ordinance to impose a $100 an-
nual fee on any coin-controlled,
music-playing device and a
$150 annual fee on any other
coin-controlled amusement de-
vice.
The borough secretary is on

posed ordinances were unavail-

I F YOU GO
It was that kind of day. Some
people told their favorite jokes;
others read jokes provided by the
Mayers brothers.
They passed
aroundabasket of
jokes that con-
tained some fa-
miliar rib ticklers.
Aman went to
the doctor and
was given six
months to live, a
woman read.
The man said he
couldnt pay his
bill, so the doctor
gave him another six months.
They still laughed.
True story, one man began
and people were already laughing.
Ayoungmother toldajokewith
her twochildren: Howdidtheele-
phant knowwhat timehisdentists

children said, Tooth hurty.
Corny, yes; funny, definitely.
More laughter.
Sam Greenburg got up to tell a
risqu joke a ditty about a
mans friends taking
himtoa house of ill re-
pute on his birthday.
The joke took a while,
but he delivered the
punch line like a pro
and the 60-plus in at-
tendance roared
laughter in approval.
JeannineLuby, 40, a
former health care
worker turned comic,
told the crowd about
her business Laugh
to Live.
Im here to tell you about the
power of laughter, Luby, a certi-
fiedlaughter leader, said. Laugh-
ing is healthy and healing; humor
gives you a positive frame of

Zolas attorneys, Ferris Webby
and Joseph Yeager, argued at his
trial the killing was alcohol-
fueled in combination with be-
trayal, anger and disappoint-
ment.
The attorneys arguedZola did
not lay in wait for Cave to return
home that day, and that Zola did
not know Cave was dead until
told so by investigators.
The attorneys argued Tues-
day for a minimum sentence of
eight to 20 years.
Assistant District Attorneys
Chester Dudick and Alexis Fal-
vello said the events leading up
toCaves deathshowedZola had
intent to kill her and that he did
lay in wait.
The couple had an argument
at a local restaurant the night be-
fore; Cave shut off Zolas cell-
phone service; Zola thought
Cave was seeing other people;
they argued. Zola went to Caves
apartment, parked a block and a
half away and waited for her in
the kitchen.
Prosecutors argued Tuesday
for the maximumsentence of 20
to 40 years.
Caves mother, Rosemarie
Sult, spoke before Zolas sen-
tencingTuesday, sayingthat her
daughters death has destroyed
her family and that every day
she visits her daughters grave.
Thats all I have (left) of my
baby girl, Sult said.
Caves daughter, Alyssa Led-
den, also spoke, saying she for-
gives Zola for what happened,
and that she remembers the
good times she had with him in
her life.
Every day I have to wake up
andknowmymother isnt here,
Ledden said, adding that her in-
fant son will never get to meet
his Grandma Rose. He looks
just like her.
Zolas mother, Maxine, spoke
of the good son she raised, and
she described him as loving,
thoughtful and kind.
He loved Rose with all his
heart andsoul, his mother said.
Cosgrove said he did not
think Caves family was de-
stroyed, but rather they had
pulled together in an outpour-
ing of love, strength and togeth-
erness after suffering greatly.
And (Alyssa Ledden) has for-
given (Zola), Cosgrove said.
Thats something Ive never
heard before.
Cosgrove said he took into ac-
count the jurys verdict, the ar-
guments from prosecutors and
defense attorneys, as well as Zo-
las ownwords andactions, lead-
ing to Tuesdays sentence.
I believe you are a different
person now (then you were two
years ago), Cosgrove said, urg-
ing Zola to participate in a 12-
step rehabilitation program, get
mental health treatment and
write a letter of apology to
Caves family.

JOHN COL-
LINS WILL tell
you the idea
grew from
seeing the
same picture
on several
walls in the
NHL offices. NBCs Jon Miller,
the other man credited with
creating the Winter Classic,
remembers watching people
wrapped like fur trappers in
Edmonton back in 2003 for an
outdoor NHL game between the
Oilers and Canadiens and think-
ing, Yankee Stadium.
But the real heroes in the
amazing growth of the Winter
Classic reside not in the New
York offices of Collins NHL, or
cross town in the offices at 30
Rock, where Miller is a vice
president of sports. No, the real
heroes are the Einsteins who
first invented the concept of the
Bowl Championship Series,
then moved their most signif-
icant games off New Years Day,
or its legal holiday equivalent.
To a league seeking to infil-
trate American culture, it was
the equivalent of volunteering
to serve a game misconduct.
Collins, 50, had barely unpacked
his boxes when Miller called
him with this idea he had been
sitting on since he got that
glimpse of the 2003 Heritage
Classic, played in Edmonton
between the Oilers and Cana-
diens in late November amid
temperatures well below freez-
ing.
Ultimate reality show
NBC, which for 37 years had
aired the Rose Bowl on that
date and had a new contract
with the NHL, was looking for
some programming. Miller had
pitched the idea to the league as
far back as 2004, but it evaporat-
ed via labor strife and resistance
from some owners. Collins
arrival breathed ice back into
the idea, and it became a reality
on Jan. 1, 2008, when the Buffa-
lo Sabres and Pittsburgh Pen-
guins met amid a snowstorm in
Ralph Wilson Stadium.
It was pretty on television, a
mess at ground level.
The ultimate reality show,
NHL commissioner Gary Be-
ttman said.
The game had to be stopped
to shovel off snow. Cracks ap-
peared on the surface of what
was then a rented rink.
That blizzard in Buffalo in the
inaugural game between the
Sabres and Penguins, antici-
pated before the game and deliv-
ered during it, stopped thumbs
in mid-channel-surf click, cre-
ating instant credibility to the
games name, and a postgame
buzz that excited those at the
top of a league once scorned for
its unyielding ways.
Bettman bristles at that de-
scription. Since that game, the
NHL has staged successful and
memorable Classics in Chicago,
Boston and last year, Heinz
Field in Pittsburgh, where rain
pushed it from a day game into
a cool sight under the lights.
Ratings have increased with
each one and the league has
experienced unprecedented
revenue growth.
Which explains why, when he
was asked if the event had
changed the sports image, in
your eyes, Bettman shot back.
No, the question is, Has this
event changed the sports image
in your eyes?
The answer is a resounding
yes, of course. Once routinely
criticized for a perceived lack of
vision and copycat creativity,
the NHL is perhaps the most
progressive professional sports
league these days. Its use of
digital media, a marketing plan
based on seasonal high points,

When its 6-0 on your home
ice and youre walking out with

lot, Penguins winger Eric Tan-
gradi said.
Hersheys Braden Holtby stop-
ped all 28 shots he faced as the
Penguins were shutout for the
second time this season. The
loss drops them to 16-10-1-4 and
puts themfour points behind the
Bears for first place in the East
Division.
The Penguins got off toa rocky
start by allowing Hershey to
score twice in the first five min-
utes.
And it would only get worse.
With less than four minutes
left in the opening period, Pen-
guins defenseman Cody Wild
was whistled for high-sticking,
giving the Bears their third pow-
er play of the period.
This time they connected
when Patrick McNeill was left
alone at the corner of the net and
placed a shot over Brad Thies-
sens shoulder to put the Pen-
guins down 3-0.
They scored two quick goals
and kind of shell-shocked us a
bit, then we give up one on the
power play, Tangradi said. We
knew that was an area we had to
stay away from, and it kind of
sucked the wind out of a few
guys. The start was not some-
thing we were looking for.

DALLAS Penn State inter-

the Texas sunshine on a crisp
day watching his team stream-

Away from home, preparing
for a bowl game, the focus is on
football and the final game of
what has been a season of tur-
moil.
Lets talk football, its great
to finally talk football, Bradley
said Tuesday. Watch them out
here, theyre excitedto play, and
its just fun to get out and play
some football.

certainty about the status of

receiver Curtis Drake about a
missed route in practice led to a
locker room scuffle. McGloin
has called it a freak accident.
He was knocked out after hit-

during the fight.
It is still unclear if McGloin
will be ready to play Monday.

YATESVILLE--If the opening

Pittsburgh stunned by
unranked Fighting Irish
The Associated Press
watching Wilson and Lewis play
more like seasoned veterans than
rookies. Wilson led the Royals
with 14 points, including three
NBA range three point baskets.
Lewis, who played just her sec-
ond game for Holy Redeemer af-
ter transferring from Wyoming
Valley West, scored 10 points/
The 5-foot-11 Wilson put on a
shooting clinic from behind the
arc. She tossed in a buzzer beater
from 35 feet that gave Holy Re-
deemer a 19-8 at the end of the
first quarter.
I was confident that it was go-
ingin, Wilsonsaid. What I liked
best is that my teammates
showed trust by getting the ball
to me.
Wilson also was red-hot in the
second half. She nailed a three-
pointer midway through the
fourth quarter that gave the Roy-
als a 62-30 advantage.
Lewis was outstanding of both
ends of the court. Early in the
first quarter, she made a perfectly
timed block against Sarah Deg-
nan, whowas racinginfor a layup
wound up sprawled on the floor.
I was able to knock the ball
away, said Lewis, a much-hyped
player who led an area eighth
grade team to a national tourna-
ment last summer.
Lewis also made a dazzling
play play in the third quarter. She
stole the ball in back court,
brought it to front court and hit
Julia Wignot on the other side of
the basket for a layup.
I didnt feel any pressure,
saidLewis, whenaskedhowshes
dealing with the high expecta-
tions surrounding her.
Parker, a former star at Wilkes
University, had high praise for
Wilson and Lewis. Im very for-
tunate to have two great fresh-
men on the team.
He also credited senior guard
Wignot with playing a key role in
the victory. Wignot is the cata-
lyst of this team. We have great
shooters andshe makes sure they
get the ball.
Paige Makowski scored 10
points for the Royals. Degnan
paced the Warriors (3-5) with 15
points.
Pittston Area (8-0) didnt miss
a beat while cruising past Moun-
tain View (0-7).
Hopkins, a 5-11 junior forward,
scored at will inside the paint.
She also tossed in a three-pointer
and blocked two shots. Grace
ONeill scored 15 points, includ-
ing a pair of three-point baskets,
and Liz Waleski notched 12
points.
Were just working together
and doing the right things, Hop-
kins said. Were going to have to
be at our best to beat Holy Re-
deemer.

S P O R T S
assistant, has been running the
program since school trustees
fired Hall of Fame coach Joe Pa-
terno on Nov. 9 in the aftermath
of child sex abuse charges
against retired defensive coordi-
nator Jerry Sandusky.
Ive got a bunch of players
here doing everything I ask them
to do, Bradley said. As I told
people fromthe get-go, whatever
happens, Im going to hang in
there until the last minute and
do whatever I can for my play-
ers.
Bradley interviewed Dec. 16
with the Penn State committee
searching for Paternos replace-
ment, though he has heard noth-
ing more from the committee
since then.
Everybody makes a bigger
deal than I think it is, Bradley
said.
Acting athletic director Dave
Joyner said in a written state-
ment Thursday that the six-per-
son committee is taking a very
deliberate and measured ap-
proach to the process in order to
identify the coach that best fits
the requirements of the posi-
tion. Joyner was not yet in Dal-
las for the game.
While the committee offered
nospecific timeline, Bradley said
Tuesday that they werent go-
ing to do it until after the bowl
game.
The Nittany Lions practiced
six days at home before players
got a break for Christmas, which
Bradley said was a change from
the past under Paterno when the
team would have had all those
practices at the site of their bowl.
I felt this year the best thing
we could do was get a good solid
six practices, let them go home,
then bring them down, Bradley
said.
Bradley said he still hasnt spo-
ken to Paterno since the day af-
ter this all happened though
talks regularly to Paternos son,
Jay, the teams quarterbacks
coach, about the 85-year-old
coachs health. Joe Paterno is be-
ing treated for lung cancer and a
broken pelvis.
While Bradley has gotten
many calls of advice and encour-
agement fromfellowcoaches, he
saw no need to call Paterno for
any advice about bowl prepara-
tions.
Weve got a group of guys and
staff that know how to prepare
for a bowl game, Bradley said. I
knowCoach, I think hed be mad
if we call. He knows we have a job
to do.
Asked if he got a break during
the Christmas holiday, Bradley
chuckled.
I didnt get a whole lot of per-
sonal time, he said. Listen,
Santa wasnt real good to me this
year.

Last year, Wilkes Myzar
Mendoza became the first Col-
onel wrestler to win the cham-
pionship of the Wilkes Open in
head coach Jon Laudenslagers
tenure.
Today at the 79th annual
open, also known as The Rose
Bowl of Wrestling, Mendoza
and other
Colonels will
attempt to
win another
gold medal
for their
coach, now in
his ninth sea-
son.
Mendoza, a
sophomore, claimed the title
at 125 pounds last year. He
should be in contention again
today.
Two of his teammates se-
niors Shane Everett andAntho-
ny Dattolo placed second and
fourth, respectively in the 2010
event. Both are returning.
Dattolo enters with a record
of 16-0 this season as hes cur-
rently rankedfifthinthe nation
at 149 pounds in the most re-
cent d3wrestle.com poll.
Mendoza, who has been
wrestling at 133 this season,
begins the tournament with an
11-4 mark and is coming off a
championship at the Messiah
Petrofes Tournament. Everett,
a 157-pounder, holds a 12-5 re-
cord this season.
Dattolo is tied for the team-
high in wins with 125-pound
freshman Michael Fleck, who
is 16-5.
John Lynch (149 pounds)
has 15 wins for Wilkes, while
Lucas Dise (125), George
Simms (157) and Dave Ober-
render (197) have 13 wins
apiece.
The Colonels are taking part
in their first competition since
a Dec. 10 quad match at home
against Delaware Valley, York
and Muhlenberg. They enter
the event ranked 14th in the
latest NWCA teamrankings af-
ter being ranked as high as11th
earlier in the season
Four DivisionI teams ranked
in the NWCA/USA Today
Coaches Top 25 have represen-
tatives registered for the
event, including No. 12 Le-
high, No. 9 American, No. 13

The largest high school
wrestling tournament held lo-
cally is ready for the 34th edi-
tion.
The Tunkhannock Kiwanis
tournament will take place
Thursday and Friday at Tunk-
hannock High School with 23
teams on hand.
Wrestling will begin Thurs-
day morning at 10:30 with the
first round, and will continue
throughout the day until eight
wrestlers are left in each
weight class.
Action picks up Friday at 10
a.m., with the semifinals and
the medal round slated for ap-
proximately 3 p.m. The finals
are tentatively scheduled to go
off at 5 p.m.
Fifteen District 2 teams are
part of the field, including six
from the Wyoming Valley Con-
ference and Wyoming Semina-
ry. Representing the WVC are
Coughlin, GAR, Lake-Lehman,
Nanticoke, Tunkhannock and
Wyoming Area. Wyoming Sem-
inary, which participates in the
high school prep division and
not in District 2, is only send-
ing a handful of grapplers from
its B Team to take part in the
event.
From the Lackawanna
League, Blue Ridge, Elk Lake,
Lackawanna Trail, Montrose,
Scranton, Scranton Prep, Val-
ley View and Western Wayne
will make the trip to Wyoming
County for the event.
Warren County, a high
school from Virginia, will make
another appearance in the
event. The Wildcats, who are
the only out of state team in
the tourney, are coached by
Matt Wadas, the son of tourna-
ment director Frank Wadas.
Cedar Crest, Mahanoy Area,
Mount Carmel, Northeast
Bradford, North Penn, Pocono
Mountain East and Wyalusing
round out the field.
One change was made for
the 2011 event as Wyoming
Seminary replaces Phoenix-
ville.
Wyalusing won the team ti-
tle last year beating out sec-
ond-place Honesdale by 25
points and third-place Cough-
lin by 35. Those three teams
could once again challenge for
the team trophy this week and
should get strong competition
from Western Wayne, Pocono
Mountain East and Lake-Leh-
man.
Four returning champions
from 2010 will look to defend
their titles in Warren Countys
Kyle Montague (113 pounds),
Northeast Bradfords Zach
Green (138), Wyalusings Ryan
Hart (132) and Lackawanna
Trails Eric Laytos (220).
In addition to the aforemen-
tioned, eight grapplers who are
wrestling in the event will be
trying to improve on runner-up
finishes from last year. Three of
those participants are from Ce-
dar Crest in Sean Hughes
(120), Brett Pallas (138) and
Cody Lloyd (145). Coughlin re-
turns Bill Poray (113) and
Frank Mahmoud (138) as silver
medalists last year. Wyoming
Areas Andy Schutz (132),
Western Waynes Joe Ingaglio
(285) and Wyalusings Antho-
ny Clark (182) are also back for
another shot. Lake-Lehman
freshman Austin Harry (132)
was a state qualifier last season
and will also be participating.
On Thursday, five mats will
be set up at Tunkhannock with
three in the gym and two in the
cafeteria. For Day 2, only the
mats in the gym will be used.

What: The 34th annual Tunk-
hannock Kiwanis Tournament
When: Thursday and Friday at
Tunkhannock H.S.
Times: Wrestling begins at 10:30
a.m. Thursday and 10 a.m. Friday.
The finals are scheduled for 5
p.m. Friday.
U P N E X T
The Penguins offense did
come to a life in the second peri-
od when Paul Thompson broke
in on Holtby and got off a shot.
Holtby made the save but the re-
bound went to Zach Sill, whose
shot went high.
Tangradi also had a chance
when his shot hit the post,
something that turned into a re-
occurring theme for the Pen-
guins in the second period.
I think we hit a mask, a glove
and a post all on one sequence in
the second period, Penguins
captain Ryan Craig said.
Head coach John Hynes was
happy with his teams response
in the second period and said
the Penguins had nine quality
scoring chances.
But none of them found the
back of the net.
That was the difference in
the game, Hynes said. When
you have that hard of a push and
dont get a goal, its a little bit
harder to come back in the next
20.
Hershey made any chance of a
comeback basically impossible
in the third period as it added
three more goals, including an-
other power play tally, to put the
game out of reach.
On the night, Hersheys power
play was 2-for-6 while the Pen-
guins blanked on four chances.
A rematch at the Giant Center
tonight was the only consolation
the Penguins could take from
Tuesdays loss one that wont
linger for more than a day.
Were excited we get to play
them again tomorrow, Craig
said. Thats the great thing
about these home-and-home se-
ries. We get a chance to answer
back tomorrow and get right
back at it in a rink that will be
rocking.
NOTES
- D Boris Valabik left the ice
just four minutes into the game
holding his hand. Hynes didnt
know the extent of his injury af-
ter the game.
- After going 0-for-4 on the
power play, the Penguins have
failed to score with the man ad-
vantage in their last 13 chances
over a span of four games. The
Penguins power play is 1-for-25
in their last eight games.
- D Joey Mormina (injury),
LW Ryan Schnell, RW Brian Day
(injury) and RW Keven Veilleux
(injury) were scratched for the
Penguins.

DETROIT Purdue quarter-
back Caleb TerBush took the fi-
nal snap, sprinted to the sideline
and handed the football to coach
Danny Hope.
Perhaps empoweredby getting
a contract extension recently,
Hope made the gutsy decision to
gofor twoonside kicks inthe first
half and both gambles paid off for
the Boilermakers in a 37-32 win
over Western Michigan on Tues-
day night in the Little Caesars
Pizza Bowl.
Raheem Mostert returned a
kickoff 99 yards for a touchdown,
third-string running back Reggie
Pegram scored the first two TDs
of his career and Carson Wiggs
made two field goals to give the
Boilermakers a 27-15 lead at half-
time.
Wiggs alsorecoveredone of his
onside kicks, both of which he
tapped toward a sideline after
running at full speed as if he was
trying to boot the ball deep.
Purdue (7-6) had another 12-
point lead early in the fourth
quarter, but the BigTenteamhad
to hold on for the win against the
Mid-American Conference pro-
gram.
The Broncos (7-6) got the ball
with a chance to go ahead, but
their comeback hopes ended
when quarterback Alex Carder
fumbled for his fifth turnover
with just under 2 minutes left.
Ryan Russell forced the final
fumble and Bruce Gaston reco-
vered to seal the win in a game
that entertained 46,177 fans in-
side the home of the Detroit Li-
ons.
The Boilermakers played in a
bowl for the first time since 2007,
whenthey beat Central Michigan
also in Detroit.
Western Michigan fell to 0-5 in
postseason play.
Purdues Akeem Shavers ran
for a career-high 148 yards on 22
carries, filling in for the injured
Ralph Bolden, and was named
the games MVP.
TerBush was 8 of 13 for 101
yards with a 33-yard touchdown
pass to Gary Bush midway
through the third quarter that
put Purdue up 34-18. Robert
Marvewas 6of 7for 76yards with
a1-yardscoringpass toPegramin
the first quarter.
Purdue defensive end Gerald
Gooden had two of his teams
four interceptions, and gave back
one of those two turnovers to the
Broncos ina gamefilledwithmis-
cues and missed opportunities
for both teams
NC State 31, Louisville 24
CHARLOTTE, N.C. Mike
Glennon threw for 264 yards and
three touchdowns and David
Amerson returned an intercep-
tion 65 yards for a touchdown as
North Carolina State defeated
Louisville in the Belk Bowl.
T.J. Graham made the most of
his final game at N.C. State with
seven catches for 116 yards and
two touchdowns, including a 65-
yard score on a nifty catch-and-
run, as the Wolfpack (8-5) over-
came a series of special teams
blunders to hold off a late charge
from the Cardinals (7-6).
Amerson had two more inter-
ceptions to give him 13 for the
season, the most in the country,
while setting a new Atlantic
Coast Conference record.
Louisvilles Teddy Bridgewa-
ter, who threw for 274 yards and
two touchdowns and ran for an-
other, nearly brought the Cardi-
nals back from a 21-point deficit,
but his final heave on fourth-
and-23 was picked off by Amer-
son with 41 seconds left.
Louisville used a fake punt and
recovered an onside kick to get
back in the game after falling be-
hind 31-10.
Bridgewater threw a pair of 2-
yard touchdown passes to close
the gap to 31-24 with 3:55 left in
the game.
The Cardinals had once last
chance to send the game into
overtime after stopping N.C.
State on fourth-and-2. However,
ona third-and-12DontaeJohnson
sackedBridgewater for an11-yard
loss setting up Amersons clinch-
ing interception.
The Wolfpack came into the
game leading the nation in inter-
ceptions and picked off Bridge-
water three times.

PITTSBURGH Pitts-

Tomlin believes injured quar-
terback Ben Roethlisberger
and center Maurkice Pouncey
both have a shot to play in
Sundays regular season finale
at Cleveland.
It is our intention right now
that if those guys are healthy
enough to practice and pre-
pare, then we will play them,
Tomlin said Tuesday.
Giventhe waybackups Char-
lie Batch and Trai Essex han-
dled themselves in a 27-0 win
over St. Louis last Saturday,
the Steelers (11-4) may not
need Roethlisberger or Poun-
cey to hurry back from their
badly sprained left ankles to
keep the teams hopes of an
AFC North title alive.
Batch played effectively
against the Rams, passing for
208 yards.

Through its infiltration into
their inner sanctums and exam-
ination of its written and un-
written laws, the HBO series
has dispelled the notion that its
players are one-dimensional
cliches. Or that those who
operate it are either.
In all honesty, I think this
got bigger, faster than anybody
could have predicted, Bettman
said. It was always going to be
a big event, but the fact that we
now own New Years Day or
the legal holiday equivalent
Im not sure anybody could
have predicted that it would
have catapulted that quickly.
The snow for the first one cer-
tainly didnt hurt.
We still feel we can activate
better, Collins said. We still
think we have room to grow to
make this thing truly a hockey
holiday.
all point to COO Collins, who
came to the NHL in 2006 with a
big reputation for big events,
ideas and sponsorship deals
worth an additional $1.9 billion.
While with NFL Films, Col-
lins helped create Hard
Knocks, the precursor to
HBOs riveting 24/7 series,
which in the last two winters
has featured the NHLs Winter
Classic combatants. Like the
Classic, the HBO series has
won over even those most wary
of its concept. Capitals general
manager George McPhee told
Bettman after last years series
that it was one of the best expe-
riences he has ever had in all
the time hes been in the game.
What McPhee discovered
what many fans, casual or oth-
erwise have, too is that hock-

Sam Donnellon is a columnist for
The Philadelphia Daily News.
Moffett was harsher yet on stu-
dents who sat with their girl-
friends, apart from the cheering
section, writing if she made or
wanted you to sit with her, then
shes a high maintenance, selfish
pig and you should dump her
now. Moffett referred to other
students who sat apart with
classmates as boy lovers.
The email referred to General
McLane as General McLame
and its fans as mayonnaise sand-
wich eating, sister loving, trailer
park dwelling clowns. It also re-
ferred to another school, Mercy-
hurst Prep, as Mercyworst.
The Rev. Scott Jabo, Cathedral
Preps president, confirmed the
email went to all students and
said Moffett has apologized and
offered to resign, but school offi-
cials believe he was contrite and
deserves tokeephis job. Moffetts
pay during the suspension is be-
ing given to General McLane and
Mercyhurst, which are being en-
couraged to use the money for
student programs.
He took full responsibility,
Jabo said. He apologized to the
student body and he is in the
process of apologizing to Mercy-
hurst Prep and General McLane.
Obviously the email runs con-
trary to the mission of Cathedral
Prep and as such is unacceptable
on every level.
Moffett
emailed an
apology to stu-
dents that read,
in part, Please
understand, ho-
mophobic
statements ...
and degrading
comments
about women
are not (and
never should
be) part of the
vernacular of a
Man of Prep.
For that, I am
truly sorry.
The school
was founded in
1921 and is operated by the Ro-
man Catholic Diocese of Erie.
Moffett issued a statement
when contacted by the media for
comment, apologizing to the
schools and students, calling the
email a complete lapse of judg-
ment on my part and holding
himself 100 percent account-
able for it.

On fans from
rival General
McLane
fensive end Andre Carter, and
guards Brian Waters and Logan
Mankins all are starters for the
AFC from the Patriots. Special
teamer Matthew Slater is the
other New England representa-
tive.
Linebacker Willis, DE Justin
Smith, cornerback Carlos Rog-
ers and tackle Joe Staley will
start for the NFC from the 49ers
(12-3), who had only Smith and
Willis make the Pro Bowl last
year.
Green Bays Rodgers is the
starting NFC quarterback,
backed by record-setting Drew
Brees of New Orleans (12-3).
It does have special signifi-
cance, because when I was voted
in in 2009, I was the third guy
andI was very thankful to be vot-
ed in, and got the opportunity to
start because of some injuries
and guys not going, Rodgers
said. Its great to be votedinas a
starter, that means a lot to me
and its a special honor.
Four of theNFLs biggest head-
line makers this season did not
get voted in by players, coaches
and fans: Lions DT Ndamukong
Suh, Steelers LB James Harri-
son, Panthers rookie QB Cam
Newton, and Denver QBTimTe-
bow.
Suh might have lost support
after drawing a two-game sus-
pension for stomping an oppo-
nent, and Harrisons one-game
suspension for his helmet-to-hel-
met hit on Browns QB Colt
McCoy might have reduced his
support.
Fifteen first-time Pro Bowlers
made the NFC squad, including
Rogers, Staley and safety Dash-
on Goldson of the 49ers.
Thirteen AFC players were
first-time selections, including
Gronkowski, Carter and Slater
of New England. Carter is on in-
jured reserve (left quadriceps)
and wont play.
If you look around the NFC,
you see a ton of amazing and tal-
ented players at tight end, said
the Saints Jimmy Graham, the
starter at the position and a first-
time Pro Bowler. And to be
thought of in that company by
my peers, the head coaches and
the fans who follow the NFL is
something I take seriously.
Fourteen teams from each
conference were represented,
with St. Louis (2-13) and Wash-
ington (5-10) drawing blanks in
the NFC, Buffalo (6-9) and Ten-
nessee (8-7) shut out in the AFC.
Pittsburgh (11-4), New Or-
leans andChicago(7-8) eachhad
five representatives.
Three rookies were chosen:
Denver linebacker Von Miller,
Cincinnati receiver A.J. Green,
and Arizona cornerback Patrick
Peterson, selected as a kick re-
turn specialist. He has tied an
NFL record with four punt run-
backs for TDs this season.
As Ive said before, A.J. is the
best first-round draft pick that
Ive ever been around, Bengals
coach Marvin Lewis said. I have
not seena receiver better thanhe
is at getting to the ball.
The Pittsburgh Steelers had
five players named to the AFC
squad, with three designated as
starters. Mike Wallace was cho-
sen as a receiver and Maurkice
Pouncey will start at center. Troy
Polamalu was selected as the
starting strong safety. Quarter-
back Ben Roethlisberger and
kick returner Antonio Brown
round out the Pittsburgh contin-
gent.
The Philadelphia Eagles
sawthree players namedas start-
ers for the NFC. Star running
back LeSean McCoy will get to
followthe blocks of JasonPeters,
an offensive tackle. Defensive
end Jason Babin will also start.
New York Jets cornerback
Darrelle Revis has been selected
to his fourth consecutive Pro
Bowl, his thirdstraight as a start-
er. Center Nick Mangold was al-
so picked for his fourth Pro Bowl
in a row, while left tackle
DBrickashaw Ferguson made it
for the third consecutive year.
New York Giants quarter-
back Eli Manning and defensive
end Jason Pierre-Paul have been
selected to play in the Pro Bowl.
It marked the second Pro Bowl
selection for Manning and the
first for Pierre-Paul.
NFC starters on offense will
be Rodgers, McCoy, Packers FB
John Kuhn, Graham, Panthers C
Ryan Kalil, Saints guards Jahri
Evans andCarl Nicks, Peters and
Staley, Cardinals WR Larry Fitz-
gerald and Lions WR Calvin
Johnson.
On defense, it will be Vikings
DE Jared Allen and Babin, Cow-
boys DT Jay Ratliff and Smith,
Packers OLBClay Matthews and
Cowboys OLB DeMarcus Ware,
ILB Willis, Packers CB Charles
Woodson and Rogers, Seahawks
safety Earl Thomas and Cardi-
nals safety Adrian Wilson.
AFC starters on offense will
be Brady, Ravens RB Ray Rice
and FB Vonta Leach, Gronkow-
ski, Pouncey, Mankins and Wa-
ters at guard, Browns tackles Joe
Thomas and Dolphins tackle
Jake Long, Welker and Wallace.
On defense, it will be Broncos
DE Elvis Dumervil replacing
Carter, Colts DE Dwight Free-
ney, Wilfork and Ravens DT Ha-
loti Ngata, Miller and Ravens
OLB Terrell Suggs, Lewis, Jets
CB Darrelle Revis and Broncos
CB Champ Bailey, Polamalu and
Ravens safety Ed Reed.
Packers stock sale
GREEN BAY, Wis. The
Green Bay Packers have sold
nearly 250,000 shares of stock in
the team and will offer 30,000
more shares.
Packers President and CEO
Mark Murphy says support for
the sale has been outstanding.
The NFLs only publicly owned
team is selling shares for $250
each, with a $25 handling fee,
whichmeans the teamhas raised
about $62 million. Proceeds will
go toward a $143 million expan-
sion of Lambeau Field.
The team put the shares on
sale on Dec. 6 at packers.com.
Buyers can call themselves NFL
owners, though the stock value
will not go up and there are no
dividends.
Stockholders do get voting
rights. And they can attend an-
nual meetings, where they can
meet Packers executives and
tour the Packers Hall of Fame.

LCD price fixing settlement
Sharp Corp., Samsung Electronics
Co. and five other makers of liquid
crystal display panels used in comput-
ers and televisions have agreed to pay
$538.6 million to settle antitrust claims
by indirect purchasers.
Earlier this month, the panel makers
agreed to pay $388 million to settle
price-fixing claims by direct buyers of
the products as part of a series of cases
consolidated in federal court in San
Francisco. The companies allegedly
fixed prices of thin-film liquid crystal
display panels, driving up prices for
purchasers of televisions, notebook
computers and monitors from1999 to
2006, according to a class action, or
group, lawsuit filed in 2007.
Home prices fall again
The Standard & Poors/Case-Shiller
index released Tuesday showed prices
dropped in October from September in
19 of the 20 cities tracked. It was the
second consecutive monthly decline.
Home prices have fallen roughly 32
percent nationwide since the housing
bubble burst five years ago.

THE TIMES LEADER WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 28, 2011

A Philadelphia company has
beenappointedby a federal judge
to operate Split Rock Resort
while a legal dispute plays out in
court.
ROPA Associates LLC was as-
signed as a receiver to manage
the day-to-day operations of the
1,200-acre year-round resort in
Kidder Township, Carbon Coun-
ty. Split Rock is owned by Vaca-
tion Charters LTD and employs
546 people.
U.S. District Court Judge A. Ri-
chard Caputo appointed ROPA
Associates in November in re-
sponse to a petition filed by Tex-
tron Financial Corp. that claimed
Vacation Charters was on the
verge of filing for bankruptcy and
had improperly used mainte-
nance fees paid by timeshare
holders to pay attorneys fees and
to fund a portion of a $2.2 million
settlement in a separate class-ac-
tion lawsuit.
Textron Financial Corp. is the
mortgageholder of Split RockRe-
sort and its properties.
In May, Vacation Charters was
court ordered to pay more than
$2.2 million to 259 salespersons
who were improperly classified
as independent contractors in-
steadof employees by the compa-
ny. The salespersons sold time-
shares between June 2005 and
December 2008.
Timeshare holders of Split
Rock paid annual maintenance
fees that Vacation Charters im-
properly used to pay $150,000 in
legal fees to a law firm it had em-
ployedtofile a plannedbankrupt-
cy petition, according to court re-
cords filed by Textron. The bank-
ruptcy petitionhadnot beenfiled
as of Tuesday.
Textron also alleged Vacation
Charters improperly used
$345,000 from the maintenance
fee account, which it later reim-
bursed at Textrons insistence, to
pay a portion of the $2.2 million
class-action settlement.
Vacation Charters in October
advised Textron that it needed
$2.6 million to meet payroll for
its employees in November and
December and to operate the re-
sort complex through the end of
the year, according to the pet-
ition.
Textron filed its own lawsuit
against Vacation Charters in Oc-
tober, claiming the company de-
faulted on more than $6 million
in mortgage loan agreements.
The suit further alleged the com-
pany missed a payment of
$45,327 into a tax reserve ac-
count and failed to provide
monthly financial reports as re-
quired by the mortgage agree-
ment.
A default judgment was en-
tered against Vacation Charters
in the case Oct. 25. The company
filed court papers on Dec. 2 seek-
ing to overturn that judgment.
No ruling has been issued on that
matter.

Receiver named to run struggling Split Rock Resort

NEW YORK Sears Holdings
Corp. plans to close between 100 and
120 Sears and Kmart stores to raise
cash after a weak holiday shopping
season for the retailer.
The closings fueled speculation
about whether the chain can turn it-
self around. Its stock fell 12.5 percent
Tuesday, closing at $33.38.
The closings are the latest andmost
visible in a long series of moves to try
to fix a company that has struggled
with falling sales and shabby stores as
rivals like Wal-Mart Stores Inc. and
Target Corp. spruced up their looks
and turned into one-stop shopping
sources.
Theres no reason to go to Sears,
said New York-based independent re-
tail analyst Brian Sozzi. It offers a de-
pressing shopping experience and un-
competitive prices.
Sears did not say which stores will
close but said it will post on http://
www.searsmedia.com when a final
list is compiled. The company would
not discuss how many, if any, jobs
would be cut.
Locally there are Kmart stores in
Wilkes-Barre, Hazle and Pittston
townships, Moosic, Berwick and
Scranton. A store in Edwardsville has
been closed since the September
flooding.
Sears has locations at the Wyoming
Valley Mall, Viewmont Mall and Co-
lumbia Mall. It also operates a distri-
butioncenter at the Hanover Industri-
al Estates in Hanover Township.
Billionaire investor Edward Lam-
pert purchased Kmart out of bank-
ruptcy in 2003 and bought Sears, Roe-
buck & Co. a year later. Since 2004
Sears Holdings which operates
both Kmart and Sears stores has
watched its cash and short-term in-
vestments go fromabout $2.09 billion
for the year ended Jan. 31, 2004 to
$1.34 billion for the year ended Jan.
31, 2011, accordingtoFactSet. Thefig-
ure nowstands at about $700 million.
Some industry experts say part of
the problemSears is facingis that eco-
nomic difficulties continue to grip its
core customers. These middle-in-
come shoppers have seen their wages
fail to keep up with higher costs for
household basics like food.
But the bigger issue, analysts say, is
that Sears hasnt invested in remodel-
ing, leaving its stores uninviting.
Sears Holdings announced Tues-
day that revenue at stores open at
least a year fell 5.2 percent for the
quarter-to-date at both Sears and
Kmart. That includes the critical holi-
day shopping period. Its Kmart stores
reported a 4.4 percent decline, with
layaway faltering as rivals like Wal-
Mart and Toys R Us found success
with their own layaway programs.
Both Kmart and Sears stores re-
ported weak consumer electronics
sales. Sears, whose same-store reve-
nue dropped 6 percent, also reported
softer sales of home appliances.
RETAIL WOES Between 100 and 120 stores will close after holiday sales disappoint
DON CAREY/THE TIMES LEADER
Shoppers walk to the Kmart store on Wilkes-Barre Township Boulevard in Wilkes-Barre Township on Tuesday. Sears
Holdings, which owns Sears and Kmart, announced it will close 100 to 120 stores, but did not specify which ones.

KIDDERTWP. AMissouri company that
owns or manages 10 ski resorts across the
country has added two local ski areas to its
portfolio.
Peak Resorts Inc., of Wildwood, Mo., has
purchased Jack Frost Mountain and Big Boul-
der Ski Area fromBlue Ridge Real Estate Co.
for $9 million.
Peak Resorts is familiar with the two Car-
bon County resorts because it has leased and
managed them since 2005.
Jack Frost and Big Boulder have been an
important part of our portfoliosince2005, and
we are very happy to be adding them to our
family of resorts long term, Jesse Boyd, vice
president of Peak Resorts, said in a statement
posted on the companys website.
Nowwith12resorts, Peakowns or operates
more ski areas in the United States than any
other company. These are its first acquisitions
in Pennsylvania. Its properties include Atti-
tash, Crotched Mountain and Wildcat in New
Hampshire, Mount SnowinVermont andoth-
ers in Ohio, Indiana and Missouri.
Carl Wilgus, the president and chief exec-
utive officer of the PoconoMountains Visitors
Bureau, said he sees the sale as a positive for
the ski resorts.
That company owns 12 ski areas so it
should provide them with additional re-
sources and marketing power, Wilgus said.
He said the company is very familiar with the
two resorts and wouldnt have made a deci-
sionto spend$9 millionif it didnt like what it
was seeing.
Known first as Hazard Mountain, Big Boul-
der openedto the public in1949 andwas later
renamed, becoming the first commercial ski
operation in Pennsylvania. In1956, it employ-
ed the first successful snowmaking applica-
tion in the country. Big Boulder has 15 trails,
nine lifts and two terrain parks.
Jack Frost Mountain, which opened in
1972, offers 21trails, eight lifts andfive terrain
parks.
A message left with a Jack Frost/Big Boul-
der spokeswoman was not returned Tuesday.

The stormthat

moving out of
the area. As it
pulls away, it will
bring us windy
conditions at
times along with
snow showers
and urries. A
steady W-NW
wind of 15-
20mph will howl
this morning and
early afternoon.
It will be colder
as well with

Saturday should
be mild with

NATIONAL FORECAST: A storm system will push onshore in the Northwest today, producing rain and

THE HOLIDAYS CAN
be very stressful,
especially when every-
one is shopping late.
The supermarkets
sometimes become
unbearable, with
people blocking the
aisles in which you need to obtain
many ingredients. My No-Bake Choco-
late Peppermint Pie requires only a few
ingredients that are sure to add lots of
flavor. Chocolate pudding topped with
marshmallow, whipped cream and
peppermint candies, all over a crum-
bled crust, will make some of your
kitchen work simpler so you can enjoy
free time over the holiday week. You
can also substitute a flavor of your
choice for the chocolate pudding.
Ingredients:
Crust:
1 2/3cup graham crackers
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoon butter, melted
Filling:
3/4 cups sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1
1
2 cups milk
1 egg
2 tablespoon butter
3
4 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips or
1
2 cup Dutch-processed cocoa
Whipped Cream:
2 tablespoons whole milk
1 1-pound bag miniature marshmallows
2 cups heavy cream
1
4 cup sugar
2 tablespoon vanilla extract
May add food coloring for a holiday-
themed pie
Steps:
Crust: Combine ingredients and press in
to coat 9-inch pie pan
Filling: Combine dry ingredients and egg
in a large bowl, then add to a medium
sauce pan. Stir in milk and bring to a boil
over medium heat. Lower heat while
whisking gently for a few extra minutes.
Remove from heat, add vanilla extract.
Layer over crust.
Whipped Cream: Beat ingredients until
soft peak forms. Apply over pudding with
spoon or spatula.
Garnish with peppermint candies.

Chef thomas Cook prepared this mint
dessert at the Ramada Hotel in
Wilkes-Barre.
Is shrimp cocktail a mainstay of your
holiday-season party table? And are you a
little bored with the same old dish?
This year, try something different. We
start with the same easy, pre-cooked
shrimp, but this time they get tossed
with a zesty Jamaican-style seasoning
blend and skewered with cubes of tangy
mango and cool, crunchy cucumber. Add
a touch of zippy pepper, and nobody will
suffer from yet-another-shrimp-cocktail
syndrome.

CARIBBEAN SHRIMP SKEWERS


Start to finish: 30 minutes
Makes 24 skewers
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon dry ginger
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
10 ounces peeled and deveined cooked
medium shrimp
6 Peppadew peppers, quartered
2 mangoes, peeled and cubed
1/2 English cucumber, cut in 1/2 moon slices
In a medium bowl, stir together the garlic
powder, allspice, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger,
thyme, cayenne, black pepper and salt. Pat
dry the shrimp (this will help the spices stick),
then toss in the spice mixture.
On 4-inch skewers or picks, place a piece
of pepper, then a piece of mango, a piece of
cucumber and finally 3 spiced shrimp.

Meatballs are a great holiday
entertaining food. They are homey,
well-loved and easy to do ahead of
time.
But lets face it, theyve been
done. Theyve been done with
grape jelly and ketchup. Theyve
been done with beer and barbecue
sauce. And theyve been done with
creamy gravies.
So how about something a little
different? Something that adds
some zing to the appetizer offer-
ings. This recipe has all that, plus a
do-ahead sensibility.
Weve given directions for making
the meatballs on the stove, but if
you prefer you can transfer them to
a slow cooker to keep them warm
for your party. You also can keep
them warm in a Dutch oven over a
stovetop burner set on low.

T
he economy may be in a funk and consumer spending
in a slump, but theres one glass that seems to be more
than half full flutes of Champagne to be precise.
After seeing sales tumble as the recession hit, Cham-
pagne shipments were up nearly 22 percent comparing the first
six months of this year to the same period in 2010, with a total of
7.5millionbottles shippedtotheUnitedStates as of June, accord-
ing to the Washington-based Champagne Bureau. From July
2010 to June 2011, 18.3 million bottles were shipped, about a 20
percent increase over the July 2009-June 2010 period. The
trend may be due to people spending more, between $30 and
$50onabottleof wine, says GwendolynOsborn, wineexpert for
online retailer Wine.com. Because there are some good Cham-
pagnes tobefoundinthat range, peoplearebuyingthem, since
it is viewed as a luxury, she says.
Veuve Clicquot Brut Yellow Label, which sells for about $45 on
the site, was No. 6 on Wine.coms Top 10 sellers for 2011.
Bargain-priced bubbles were popular too, of course. The No. 2
wine on the list was a cava from Spain, Jaume Serra Cristalino
Brut Cava, which goes for $7.99. Still, there was definite in-
terest in Champagne. Dom Perignon 2002, which has a price
tag of about $160, jumped from67th place last year to No. 27
on the list this year.
No need to sell author and wine expert Leslie Sbrocco
on the joys of Champagne. Shes such a fan she had a
glass of pink bubbly tattooed on her calf.
Sbrocco, author of Wine for Women and foun-
der of the website ThirstyGirl.com, likes all kinds
of sparkling wine, including cava fromSpain and
prosecco from Italy. But Champagne is the
icon; it is the mother ship, if you will, of bub-
bles, shepoints out. SowhenI thinkof bub-
bles I immediately am drawn to Cham-
pagne.
To be called Champagne, the
wines have to be made with
grapes from the Cham-
pagne region of
France. Sparkling wines are believed to have originated as a happy
accident: Grapes were fermented and barreled during a cool har-
vest, which made the yeasts that turn sugar into alcohol go dor-
mant. A warm spring then woke up the yeasts, restarted fer-
mentation and, in the process, created bubbles.
Just where andwhenthat happenedis unclear, but records
showthat sparklingwines were producedinthe Languedoc
region of southern France decades before the Champagne
region became renowned for its sparkling wine.
At first, winemakers sawbubbles as a flawand a dan-
gerous one at that since the re-fermentation could
cause the weak glass bottles of the era to explode.
The advent of better corks and stronger bottles
helped turn Champagne into a reliable product,
one that was taken up by the French royal
court.
These days, sparkling wines are available
from all over the world, including many
that are made the same way as
Champagne. Still, Champagne

Each Player Will Receive a 2012 Calendar Planner
has maintained its cachet, not
least because of a robust name
protection campaign waged by
French producers who have reac-
hed agreements with wine re-
gions and governments around
the world to stop referring to
sparkling wines from elsewhere
as Champagne. U.S. officials
signed an agreement in 2006 to
stop new producers from using
the name. However, existing
brands were grandfathered in,
though they are required to put
the origin on the label, i.e., Cali-
fornia or American.
FrenchChampagne tends tobe
expensive, with some bottles
commanding hundreds of dol-
lars. But there are values to be
found. Sbroccoadvises lookingat
non-vintage blends offered by
some of the big houses, including
the Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label
and Louis Roederer Brut Pre-
mier.
Another emerging trend is
grower Champagnes, made by
smaller producers who mostly
grow their own grapes, as op-
posed to the big Champagne
houses that buy grapes from all
over the region. One way to iden-
tify a grower Champagne is if it
has the initials RM on the label,
which stands for Recoltant-Ma-
nipulant, literally, harvester-han-
dler.
Sarah Elliott, certified somme-
lier and wine director at Com-
monwealth restaurant in San
Francisco, sees grower Cham-
pagnes as producing more
unique styles tied to smaller par-
cels, something that seems to be
contributing to a trend of more
people viewing Champagne as a
good food wine, not just some-
thing you pop in celebration.
At Commonwealth, chef Jason
Fox is known for experimental
dishes with unexpected flavor
combinations or textures, like
vinegar foam served with nori-
flecked potato chips, and Elliott
finds that bubbles are a lot of fun
with his food.
Another change on the Cham-
pagne front is renewedinterest in
drier style wines that have had
very little or no sugar added after
the in-bottle fermentation. Some
examples are Laurent-Perrier Ul-
tra Brut and Pol Roger Pure,
which Sbrocco would pair with
oysters or goat cheese or any-
thing salty.
About that tattoo: Its based on
a glass of Billecart-Salmon rose
(ro-ZAY), and was documented
on the reality TV show LA Ink.
Like Sbrocco, Osborn, the
Wine.com expert, likes to drink
pink, citing a Canard-Duchene
Brut Rose on the website that
sells for about $45 she says is re-
ally fantastic.
True Champagne has a taste
unlike any other, Osborn says.
It brings all of these wonderful
assets together, beautiful packag-
ing, beautiful to look at. I would
rather have one beautiful glass of
Champagne than a fewglasses of
just about anything else.

high, heat the olive oil. Add the
garlic and onion and saute until
soft and translucent, about 5
minutes. Set aside to cool.
In a large bowl, mix together
the cooked onion mixture, beef,
pork, salt, black pepper, chipotle
pepper, adobo sauce, vinegar,
eggs and breadcrumbs. Form the
mixture into 1-inch balls. Arrange
the balls on the prepared baking
sheet. Bake for 10 minutes, or until
cooked through and browned.
Meanwhile, in a medium sauce-
pan over medium heat, combine
the cranberry sauce, chili sauce
and adobo sauce. Bring to a sim-
mer.
When the meatballs are done,
transfer them to a shallow bowl or
rimmed platter. Pour the sauce
over the meatballs.

O N T H E W E B
Dear Abby: My
marriage has been
on the rocks since
2008, when I caught
my husband talking
to other girls online.
He swore he would
never do it again and
I trusted him, only for it to happen
again and again. We have a 2-year-old
and Im pregnant with our second
child.
He has now placed another ad
online stating that hes a single dad.
I am torn. He keeps telling me he
loves me and wants only me, and he
doesnt know whats wrong with him.
He is bipolar and not taking meds for
it. He promised this time he will get
help and try to get better.
This is the fifth time he has placed
an ad or chatted with other girls on-
line. I dont know if I should call it
quits or keep trying. I love him and
want us to be a family, but I dont
know how much more I can take.
Torn in California
Dear Torn: Because you still love
your husband, make his taking his
medication a condition of your con-
tinuing the marriage. He needs to be
willing to prove to you that he wants
you to stay. If he wont do that, then
you will have to decide if this is the
way you want to spend the rest of
your life.
Dear Abby: Im an independent,
never-married woman who has been
holding out for the right man. I finally
found him in Wayne, a 49-year-old
widower with two adult daughters.
Wayne and I have been together
for a year living together for six
months but his daughters still
refuse to meet me. Wayne says they
need time because they lost their
mother only two years ago. The rest
of his family has been welcoming
and sweet. Im invited to some family
functions, but allowed to attend only
those that Waynes daughters wont
be at.
I feel like I am able to share only
part of his life and nothing will move
forward until his children accept me.
I love Wayne. I have searched my
whole life for someone like him. How
long is long enough to wait? What if
they never do?
On the Sidelines
Dear On The Sidelines: You ARE
sharing only part of Waynes life,
and wont be moving forward until
his adult daughters accept you OR
Wayne asserts himself. Wayne should
be ashamed of himself. He should
have introduced you to his daughters
when you started living together. As
his partner, you should not have been
excluded from any family functions.
As long as Wayne does nothing, noth-
ing will change.
Dear Abby: My husband and I have
worked hard and spent our money
carefully. We are almost ready to pay
off our home. I would love to have
a mortgage-burning party, but Im
worried about showing off in this
uncertain economy. Can we have this
party, or should we just make our last
payment and be quiet?
Thrilled in San Jose
Dear Thrilled: Taking into consider-
ation that many people have not been
as fortunate as you in spite of the fact
that they too worked hard and lived
frugally, my advice is to have a quiet
celebration with your husband and
forgo the party.
DEAR ABBY
A D V I C E
Man with roving eye online needs meds to help him remain grounded
To receive a collection of Abbys most memo-
rable and most frequently requested po-
ems and essays, send a business-sized, self-
addressed envelope, plus check or money
order for $3.95 ($4.50 in Canada) to: Dear
Abbys Keepers, P.O. Box 447, Mount Mor-
ris, IL 61054-0447. (Postage is included.)
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Youll
finally have the chance to pur-
sue an interest youve wanted to
know more about for a long time
now. Youll enjoy getting lost in a
wealth of new information.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Youll
free your mind from material
concerns. Youll find this easy to
do, especially when youre in a
relaxed environment surrounded
by beauty.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You can
like and respect yourself even
when you wish you would have
acted differently or projected a
different side of yourself. Your
compassionate attitude will help
you grow into the person you
want to be.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
Because you are so multifaceted,
you can connect with people on
many different subjects. Youll
have a knack for saying the thing
that breaks the conversation
wide open.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Remember
that this is not just about being
able to paint or write a story.
Creativity is what helps you
solve a problem or make a rela-
tionship strong and special.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Its not
OK to quit when the going gets
tough. On the other hand, its
silly to fight the currents of life
by swimming upstream. Only you
know when its right to change
direction.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The way
you see a situation may be caus-
ing you stress. Ask a trusted
friend to give you another per-
spective on the matter. Youll
open your mind to a liberating
viewpoint.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Studies
prove that regular exercise
bolsters your reserves of self-
control. Even goals that are not
fitness related will be more eas-
ily accomplished.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
Theres a problem that keeps
you from having what you dearly
want. Truly, no one is to blame
for this. Youll make headway
once you decide that youre the
one who will change.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
Things of value will come eas-
ily. If you recognize the value
and cherish these things, youll
be among the few who do.
Most people dont see the value
of something until they are
deprived of it.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). No
time to stop and assess where
you are. Keep going until you get
a sense of pride and accomplish-
ment. For you, this will come
only at the very end of a project.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You will
be the astute one in your group,
and they really need you to point
out the little signs of improve-
ment you see. Youll note the
incremental progress and inspire
the others to continue forward.
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (Dec. 28).
You promote harmony and
cooperation wherever you go.
The actions you take in January
have unusual and unexpected
results, making it a memorable
time. February brings freedom,
and youll adventure on through
the spring. May features a mean-
ingful commitment. Libra and
Gemini people adore you. Your
lucky numbers are: 5, 21, 24, 30
and 14.

Francis Walter Hydro, LLC
Project No. 14314-000
NOTICE OF PRELIMINARY PERMIT APPLI-
CATION ACCEPTED FOR FILING AND
SOLICITING COMMENTS, MOTIONS TO
INTERVENE, AND COMPETING
APPLICATIONS
(November 14, 2011)
On November 1, 2011, Francis
Walter Hydro, LLC, filed an application for
a preliminary permit, pursuant to section
4(f) of the Federal Power Act (FPA), pro-
posing to study the feasibility of
hydropower at the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers (Corps) Francis E. Walter Dam
located on the Lehigh River, in Luzerne
County, Pennsylvania. The sole purpose of
a preliminary permit, if issued, is to grant
the permit holder priority to file a license
application during the permit term. A pre-
liminary permit does not authorize the per-
mit holder to perform any land-disturbing
activities or otherwise enter upon lands or
waters owned by others without the own-
ers express permission.
The proposed Francis E. Walter
Hydroelectric Project would consist of the
following: (1) a 600-foot-long, 16-foot-
diameter steel penstock attached to the
existing outlet; (2) a concrete powerhouse
50 feet long by 75 feet wide; (3) two 4.5-
megawatt (MW) generators for a total
installed capacity of 9.0 MW; (4) a tailrace
channel to direct flow back to the Lehigh
River; (5) a proposed 0.5-mile-long, 12.4-
kilovolt transmission line interconnecting
with an existing Pennsylvania Power and
Light Corporation distribution line; and (6)
appurtenant facilities. The estimated
annual generation of the project would be
26.0 gigawatt-hours.
