>> BEST OF THE BEST: In the history of mens col-


lege basketball, there are three Division I schools that have
amassed more than 2,000 victories. The top two teams on
that list? Kentucky and Kansas. (North Carolina is third for
those with a severe trivia obsession.) So when the Wildcats
and Jayhawks tip off tonight in the NCAA championship
game, theyll be bringing with them a combined 10 national
titles and 4,090 victories. The 4.091st win will mean an 11th
crown for one of them. The game starts at 9:23 p.m. and its
on CBS.
>> LIFE OF THE PARTY: Remember the dark days of
the 1980s when we used to have to fight for our right to
party? Well, since 1996, World Party Day has been making it
easier for people to get together and PAR-TAY. According to
the magic Internet, the purpose of the day is to have a
synchronized human celebration to bring about improved
social conditions. Translation: Its a day to get
down, shake your groove thing, get jiggy with
it, or whatever funky name you want to call it.
>> PLAY BALL: Ahhh. Baseball. Its back.
Almost as sure a sign of spring as increased
road construction, Opening Day is a time
when teams and fans hopes havent been
dragged through the harsh mud of reality
yet. When the Chicago Cubs are
tied with the leagues best re-
cord. And the Boston Red Sox
still think an eight-game wild
card lead is safe. St. Louis
and Miami get things
going Wednesday
night at 7 on ESPN.
The Phillies and Mets open up on Thursday afternoon, and
the Yankees have to wait until Friday.
>> ITS IN THE HOLE: Among golfers, the Augusta
National Golf Club is the Holy Grail of courses. It is home to
The Masters, the most tradition-soaked golf tournament in
America. It may also have the most unique trophy in
sports the iconic Green Jacket, awarded to the winner.
The champion can actually take the jacket home with them
for a year after their first win, and then return it to the club.
Hopefully dry cleaned. The jacket, not the club. This years
Masters begins Thursday with the final round on Sunday.
ESPN has the first two rounds, CBS the last two.
>> EASTER SEASON: For Christians, Easter is a
solemn commemoration of the death and
resurrection of Jesus Christ. While kids are
often taught the religious significance of
the holiday, lets face it. For them, its all
about the candy. Whether you cele-
brate it in church or on the lawn
searching for Easter eggs or both
have a great one. Happy Easter!

LOS ANGELES The Hun-
ger Games is still the first item
on the menu for movie fans, tak-
ing in $61.1million to remain the
No. 1filmin its second weekend.
Studio estimates Sunday put
Lionsgates The Hunger
Games well ahead of Sam Wor-
thingtons action sequel Wrath
of the Titans, which opened in
second-place with $34.2 million.
Thats far below the $61.2 mil-
lion opening of its predecessor,
Clash of the Titans, two years
ago. But distributor Warner
Bros. opened Clash on Easter
weekend, when young fans al-
ready were off school and in holi-
day mode. With Easter coming
next weekend, the studio ex-
pects Wrath to catch up to
Clash in the next few weeks.
Julia Roberts comic Snow
White reinvention Mirror Mir-
ror debuted at No. 3 with $19
million. Released by Relativity
Media, the film casts Roberts as
the wicked queen opposite Lily
Collins as Snow White.
Starring Jennifer Lawrence as
a teen forced to compete in a tel-
evised death match, The Hun-
ger Games lifted its domestic
total to $251 million after just 10
days.
Were obviously ecstatic at
that quarter of a billion I like
the sound of that, by the way,
said David Spitz, head of distri-
bution for Lionsgate. Were go-
ing into a period now with East-
er weekend and spring break
where literally 30 percent of kids
are out of school starting tomor-
row. ... We have a great opportu-
nity to continue to play and play
and play.
The Hunger Games shot
past Dr. Seuss the Lorax
($189.6 million domestically) to
become the top-grossing film
this year.
Wrath of the Titans had a
smaller domestic opening than
2010s Clash, but the sequel
was the top drawoverseas with a
debut of $78 million in 60 mar-
kets. That gave it a worldwide to-
tal of $112.2 million.
Dan Fellman, head of domes-
tic distribution for Warner Bros.,
said he expects Wrath to fol-
low a pattern similar to the stu-
dios Sherlock Holmes sequel
last December.

The rule of threes was in
effect for Miranda Lambert at
the Academy of Country Music
Awards as she won her third
consecutive female vocalist of
the year award and her record-
tying third album of the year
honor Sunday night.
Meanwhile, Jason Aldean
and Kelly Clarkson won two
trophies for Dont You Wanna
Stay.
Taylor Swift won her second
straight entertainer of the year
trophy.
She bested her all-male com-
petitors, including four-time
winner Kenny Chesney.
The 22-year-old superstar
had the second best-selling
album of 2011 with her mul-
tiplatinum Speak Now, and
Bilboard recently named her as
their top moneymaker of the
last year, raking in an estimated
$35 million.
Swift also beat out Brad
Paisley, Blake Shelton and
Jason Aldean.
Lambert shouted Serious-
ly? to her fans as she picked
up the trophy for Four the
Record, beating out a field that
included Kenny Chesney, the
nights top nominee with nine.
I own every record in this
category and Ive been listening
and listening, thinking Im not
going to get it, said Lambert,
who got a hug from her grand-
mother and close friends Lady
Antebellum before accepting
her award. Every record is
amazing, and Im so thrilled. I
will never take this trophy for
granted. My albums are my
babies. Its what makes me
wake up in the mornings.
Celebrated as one of coun-
trys hottest young stars, shes
always had a special relation-
ship with ACM voters. Theyve
rewarded her time and again.
She joins Alabama and George
Strait with three wins in that
category, though both acts have
more trophies than her because
each also won as producers of
those albums.
Lamberts album win wasnt
the only surprise of the eve-
ning. The Eli Young Bands
smash Crazy Girl brought the
Texas quartet its first win in
Las Vegas, for song of the year,
and it was something of an
upset over superstar acts like
Chesney and Lady Antebellum
(though the trio did win vocal
group of the year). EYB lead
singer Mike Eli hoped the
groups win was an inspiration
for people who hope to some-
day do the same thing.
I have dreamed this moment
my whole life and I can speak
for the rest of these guys up
here that they have, too, Eli
said. For those of you watch-
ing on television, if youre sit-
ting here and thinking, Im
dreaming about this moment
and I want to be here, follow
your dreams believe in yourself
and do it.
It was the second big upset
of the awards Thompson
Square took vocal duo of the
year over Sugarland in an early
award. American Idol winner
Scotty McCreery won the fan-
voted new artist of the year.
Toby Keith won video of the
year for Red Solo Cup.
Aldean told the crowd he
trusted his instincts when he
was trying to sort out what to
do with Dont You Wanna
Stay, which became a steamy,
soaring duet that shows Aldean
is capable of keeping up vocally
with Clarkson. It netted the
duo single record and vocal
event of the year.
"I kind of thought it needed
a female vocal on it and Kelly
was the first name I threw out,
Aldean told the audience. And
Im really glad I did because
she came in and made a great
song, and just took it to a great
place.
Added Clarkson: Thank yall
so much for welcoming me
from the pop world!

withtheFrenchcapital. It nowac-
counts for a considerable portion
of the tourist revenues of France
the worlds most visited coun-
try and employs some 15,000
people.
In 2011, 6.5 percent of all the
tourism income in the country
came from Disneyland, French
Tourism Minister Frederic Le-
febvre toldThe AssociatedPress.
And a third of all the visitors to
the resort come to see Paris as
well for the historic heritage, soit
is extremely important to
France.
The resorts French CEO, Phi-
lippe Gas, speaking with typical
Disney-style fervor mixed with
Gallic pride, went even further:
It is perhaps arrogant to say, but
we are the best deal that France
ever made.
The operating profit book, in-
deed, looks fatter than in the
past, but the resort still has huge
debts linked to its rocky financial
past. It didnt work in the early
years how we wanted, Gas said,
but nowwe are at the healthiest
situation in our history.
The initial construction went
hugely over budget and, withless
than half the expected number of
visitors, put the resort ona down-
ward economic spiral. In 1994,
with the company in serious fi-
nancial difficulty, rumors circu-
lated that the park was on the
verge of bankruptcy and crisis
talks were held between the
banks and backers, which res-
cued the park.
Expansion with a new park in
2002, Walt Disney Studios, con-
solidated the long-term survival
of DisneylandParis. Now, though
the debt is still huge (euro)1.8
billion ($2.4 billion) the com-
pany has been paying it off in
large sums since 2009.
Its been a long way, but now
we have a calendar of payment
that will see all the debt wiped
out by 2024. We no longer need
Mommy and Daddy to help us,
Gas added.
CHESSY, France Disney-
land Paris celebrated its entry in-
to adulthood in spectacular style
this weekend, with a 20th birth-
day extravaganza replete with ce-
lebrities, parades and a new
state-of-the-art show.
The resort 35 kilometers
(about 22 miles) east of Paris has
a lot to celebrate. After overcom-
inga rockychildhood, theMagic
Kingdom nowmakes upa chunk
of the French economy and of
Disneys own revenues.
Mexican actress Salma Hayek
and retired French soccer great
Zinedine Zidane led celebrations
at the park featuring a high-ener-
gy projection of Disney cartoon
characters onto Sleeping Beau-
tys castle crowning Main Street,
U.S.A. Also starring in the event,
marked with fireworks and water
displays, were Peter Pan and oth-
er Disney characters.
Marvelous! Frenchman Xa-
vier Fin, 40, said Sunday, a day af-
ter the show. Im here with my
sonandits so great for himto see
all the creativity. Its really over-
whelming.
Beyond the glitz, however,
there is a real story for Disney-
land Paris to crow about after
some volatile years and a ru-
mored brush with bankruptcy.
The resort 40 percent own-
ed by the Walt Disney Co. has
come a long way under the mar-
keting mantra slowly but sure-
ly.
Five years ago, the resort final-
ly started to make operating prof-
its. Building on its fortune, Dis-
neyland Paris became the most
visited tourist destination in Eu-
rope in 2008. It broke its record
for ticket sales last year, marking
its 250 millionth visitor since its
creation.
Over the years, the French
have also learned to love Mickey.
The resort was decried by some
inFrance as a threat tothe French
culture a cultural Chernobyl
for some, a construction of hard-
ened chewing gum for others.
An initial ban on wine done
away with inside the park was
seen as a snub of the French heri-
tage.
Now, two decades on, the Gal-
lic grouching has been trans-
formed into enthusiasm at
least for the hordes of French
who visit the park, a 2,230-hectar
(5,510-acre) expanse. The French
nowmakeupabout half of thevis-
itors, according to the French
Tourism Ministry.
The resort began its life in the
verdant Paris region, blossoming
out of farmland, with the name
EuroDisney but was re-branded
in the mid-1990s as Disneyland
Paris to link itself more closely

Rasimas are the proud owners of a brand
newhome due to the hardwork andgene-
rosity of the local chapter of Habitat for
Humanity, a Christianpublic service orga-
nization that provides newly constructed,

mas. "Its been an amazing experience for
us as a family. "
The attractive home was designed by
local architect Russ Roberts and took
about nine months to complete with the
help of close to 1,000 volunteers.
The city of Wilkes-Barre donated the
two parcel lot on Madison Street to Hab-
itat for Humanity in 2010. With the first
phaseof thetwopart project nowcomplet-

WILKES-BARRE More than 350
students, faculty and staff at Wilkes
Universitycombinedtoput fortha big
effort in a single day of community
service on Sunday.
Armed with rakes, gloves and paint
brushes, Wilkes volunteers participa-
ted in the country-wide Big Event -- a
one-day community service project
aimed to assist the community by
those living and learning within it.
Carried out by colleges and univer-
sities throughout the country, this
was the first time Wilkes has partici-
pated in the project.
Volunteers assembled early Sunday
morningonWilkes campus beforebe-
ing divided into groups and sent out
into several areas in Luzerne County
including Wilkes Barres Kirby Park,
the Huber Breaker in Ashley and
throughout the community of West
Pittston.
Wilkes worked in cooperation with
several organizations to arrange vol-
unteer sites including Volunteers of
America, United Way of Wyoming
Valley, the Jewish Community Center
of Wyoming Valley, The American
Red Cross and the City of Wilkes-
Barre.
Still reeling fromrecord flooding in
September, cleanup in West Pittston
was a focal point of the Red Cross and
volunteers participating in The Big
Event.
Volunteers raked leaves and swept
sidewalks along Exeter Ave. and Sus-
quehanna Ave. and even pitched in at
private residences.

Bickert was among one group of vol-
unteers whopainteda house onLacoe

MIAMI When Burger King
set about to fix its ailing empire,
the fast foodgiant startedby scru-
tinizing everything on the menu
even the mayonnaise.
A group of Burger King execu-
tives and franchisees last year sat
through a lengthy presentation
complete with charts and graphs
on how oils and eggs affect the
qualityof thespread. Ablindtaste
test of 30 varieties followed. The
verdict: TheylikedtheoneBurger
King was already using.
That wasactuallyaprettyhard
day, recalls John Koch, Burger
Kings executive chef.
It wasnt the only one. Over the
past year, Burger King evaluated
all of its ingredients from the ba-
con to the cheese slices it serves
on its chargrilled burgers as part
of a yearlong quest to reverse
years of slumping sales of its
Whoppers and fries. The result:
OnMonday, it plans tolauncha li-
neupof smoothies, frappecoffees,
chicken strips and snack wraps.
The 10 new items mark Burger
Kings biggest menu expansion
since the chain opened its doors
in1954.
Burger Kings food odyssey
shows howgruelingit canbe for a
fast-food company to come up
withnewmenuitemsaprocess
most Americans arent aware of
when theyre handed a bag at a
drive-thru window. Burger King
is the latest chain to revamp its
menu as part of the fast-food in-
dustrys move away fromits near-
ly single-minded courtship of
young men. Once the lifeblood of
the industry, the economic down-
turn hit those junk food fanatics
particularly hard. At the same
time, Americans generally have
been demanding healthier op-
tions.
Burger Kinghas failedtoevolve
even as competitors have gone af-
ter newcustomers with breakfast
items and healthier fare. Last
year, Wendys for the first time
edged out Burger King as the na-
tions No. 2 burger chain behind
McDonalds. To stemthe decline,
Burger King executives last year
decided to remodel its aging sys-
temof 7,200 stores to make them
more contemporary, redesign
worker uniforms with aprons so
they stay cleanandevenserve the
iconic Whopper in cardboard car-
tons insteadof paper burger wrap-
pingfor thefirst timeinmorethan
20 years. The food, however, is at
the heart of its plan.
Consumers have longed for
morefoodoptions at Burger King,
but the revamp is a gamble. The
newmenu may not go far enough
to differentiate Burger King from
its competitors.
After all, therearestrikingsimi-
larities between Burger Kings
new items and the offerings of its
much-bigger rival McDonalds.
The GoldenArches already rolled
out specialtysaladsin2003, snack
wraps in 2006, premium coffee
drinks in 2009, and fruit smooth-
ies in 2010.
Being an innovator is critical
in the fast-food industry, said
Darren Tristano, an analyst for
food industry researcher Tech-
nomic Inc. But in recent years, he
said Burger King has been more
of a follower.
Burger King executives dont
deny that its newitems are pretty
closetothoseonMcDonalds pop-
ular menu. But they say the new
menu was created as a result of
Burger Kings own research.
Consumers wanted more
choices, said Steve Wiborg, pres-
ident of Burger Kings North
America operations. Not just
healthy choices, but choices they
could get at the competition.
Once executives settled on me-
nu items, it was time to go to the
masses. Would the new items
measure up to those of Burger
Kings competitors? To find out,
the company conducted consum-
er tests and revised its recipes
over months.
Burger King considered mak-
ing Panini-pressed snack wraps,
for example, but tests showed
customers wanted something
lighter. The wraps it settled on
closely resemble the ones offered
at McDonalds a chicken strip
sprinkled with cheese, lettuce
and dressing wrapped in a flour
tortilla. McDonalds even offers
the same flavors honey mus-
tard and ranch.

lineup of smoothies, coffees,
salads, chicken strips, wraps.

CHICAGO Provocative
new research might help ex-
plain why black women are so
much more likely than whites
to develop and die from cervi-
cal cancer: They seem to have
more trouble clearing HPV, the
virus that causes the disease.
Doctors have long thought
that less access to screening
and follow-up health care were
the reasons black women are
40 percent more likely to devel-
op cervical cancer and twice as
likely to die from it. The new
study involving young college
women suggests there might
be a biological explanation for
the racial disparity, too.
If further study confirms this
novel finding, it would make
the HPV vaccine even more im-
portant for black women, said
Worta McCaskill-Stevens, a
prevention specialist at the Na-
tional Cancer Institute. The
vaccine is recommended for all
girls starting at age 11.
The study was presented
Sunday at an American Associ-
ation for Cancer Research con-
ference in Chicago.
Certain strains of HPV, the
human papillomavirus, cause
cervical cancer, but brief infec-
tions are very common in
young women. They usually go
away on their own within a
year or so and only pose a can-
cer risk when they last long-
term.
Researchers at the Universi-
ty of South Carolina in Colum-
bia studied 326 white and 113
black students taking part in a
wider federal health study. All
were given Pap tests lab ex-
ams of cells scraped from the
cervix and HPV tests every
six months throughout their
years in school.
Although the groups were
similar in how many new HPV
infections were detected and
risk factors such as how many
sex partners they had, doctors
saw striking differences in how
long their infections lasted.
Study: Blacks have trouble clearing HPV
Data may explain why black
women are more likely to
develop cervical cancer.

YANGON, Myanmar She
struggled for a free Myanmar
for a quarter-century, much of
it spent locked away under
house arrest. Now, the Nobel
Peace Prize laureate whose
nonviolent campaign for de-
mocracy at home transformed
her into a global icon is on the
verge of ascending to public of-
fice for the first time.
Aung San Suu Kyi, 66, was
elected to parliament Sunday
ina historic victory buffetedby
the jubilant cheers of support-
ers who hope her triumph will
marka major turningpoint ina
nation still emerging from a
ruthless era of military rule.
If confirmed, the election
win will also mark an astonish-
ing reversal of fortune for a
woman who became one of the
worlds most prominent pris-
oners of conscience. When she
was finally released in late
2010, just after a vote her party
boycotted that was deemed
neither free nor fair, few could
have imagined she would
make the leap fromdemocracy
advocate to elected official in
less than 17 months, opening
the way for a potential presi-
dential run in 2015.
But Myanmar has changed
dramatically over that time.
The junta finally ceded power
last year, andalthoughmany of
its leaders merely swapped
their military uniforms for ci-
vilian suits, they went on to
stun even their staunchest crit-
ics by releasing political pris-
oners, signing cease-fires with
rebels, relaxing press censor-
ship and opening a direct dia-
logue with Suu Kyi who
they tried to silence for dec-
ades.
U.S. Secretary of State Hill-
ary Rodham Clinton congratu-
lated Myanmar for holding the
poll. Speaking at a news con-
ference inIstanbul, Turkey, she
said Washington was commit-
ted to supporting the nations
reform effort.

Expert analyzes 911 call
A
s the Trayvon Martin controversy
splinters into a debate about self-
defense, a central question remains:
Who was heard crying for help on a 911
call in the moments before the teenag-
er was shot?
An expert in the field of forensic
voice identification sought to answer
that question by analyzing the record-
ings for the Orlando Sentinel.
His result: It was not George Zim-
merman who called for help.
Zimmerman claims self-defense in
the shooting and told police that he
was the one screaming for help. The
two experts say the evidence tells a
different story.
On a rainy night in late February, a
woman called 911 to report someone
crying out for help in her gated Sanford
community, Retreat at Twin Lakes.
Though several of her neighbors
eventually called authorities, she
phoned early enough for dispatchers to
hear the panicked cries and the gun-
shot that took Trayvon Martins life.
URBANA, OHIO
Five arrested in death case
Five people have been arrested in
connection with the death of an Ohio
woman who police say was stabbed,
suffocated and dismembered in a bath-
tub before some of her remains were
taken about 90 miles to Kentucky.
Officers say 21-year-old Jessica Rae
Sacco was found dead Friday in her
apartment in Urbana, about 40 miles
northwest of Columbus. Authorities
arrested five people, including a 25-
year-old man who lived at the same
address as Sacco. Hes charged with
murder, assault, abuse of a corpse and
tampering with evidence. His bond is
more than $530,000.

Weather holds up rescue
U.S. Coast Guard crews were waiting
for the weather to improve before send-
ing a helicopter to take three sailors
injured in a storm from a yacht about
400 miles off the California coast, a
Coast Guard spokesman said Sunday.
The Coast Guard cutter Bertholf
with a helicopter on board was within
range of the yacht, but could not send a
rescue crew to the stricken vessel be-
cause of the weather conditions, Coast
Guard Petty Officer Caleb Critchfield
said early Sunday afternoon.
Critchfield could not provide an
estimate when the helicopter would be
able to launch.
ANDERSON, S.C.
Dresser kills 2-year-old
The 2-year-old son of an airman
killed in a terror attack in Germany has
died after a dresser fell on him and
suffocated him, authorities said.
Authorities said William Alden was
trying to reach something on top of a
dresser when it fell on him on Sat-
urday. The boy lived at the home with
his mother, Patricia Brooks Alden, and
his 5-year-old sister, Lilly, Deputy An-
derson County coroner Don McCown
said. The family was preparing to leave
for vacation in Georgia at the time.
The boys father, Senior Airman Nick
Alden of Williamston, was killed in
March 2011 outside an airport in Frank-
furt, Germany, by a man authorities
said was a Muslim extremist.

Coup sets back sales in Mali
A cloth seller waits in hope of selling
some pieces to a wholesale buyer, as
sellers said their business was suf-
fering following the recent coup, at
the Grand Market in Bamako, Mali
Saturday, . The countries neighboring
Mali have condemned the March 22nd
coup and have given the military junta
a 72-hour deadline to hand power
back to civilians, which expires on
Monday, or face crippling sanctions.
sus records were essential for her genea-
logical work because oftentimes people
dont want to give their
personal information.
Lots of times I just have
to wait until maybe they
die, she said. Then Ill
have all their information.
But census records,
which include names, ad-
dresses and in the case
of the 1940 census, income
and employment informa-
tion are rich with long-
veiled personal details.
Morris, who turns 100 in
August and was contacted
through the National Centenarian
Awareness Project, said she was working
as a keypunch operator in Fairfield, Ill.,
when the 1940 census was taken. I
dont remember them taking my cen-
sus, said Morris, who lives in Chandler,
Ariz.
While a name index will not be imme-
diately available to search, tens of thou-
sands of researchers across the country
are expected to go on a monumental
genealogical hunt this week through the
NEW YORK When the 1940 census
records are released today ,Verla Morris
can consider herself a part of living
history.
Morris, who is in her 100th year, will
get to experience the novelty of seeing
her own name and details about her life
in the records being released by the U.S.
National Archives online after 72 years
of confidentiality expires.
Id be happy to see it there, she said.
I dont think anything could surprise
me, really.
Morris is one of more than 21 million
people alive in the U.S. and Puerto Rico
who were counted in the 16th federal
decennial census, which documents the
tumultuous decade of the 1930s trans-
formed by the Great Depression and
black migration from the rural South.
Its a distinction she shares with such
living celebrities as Clint Eastwood and
Morgan Freeman.
Morris, who has been working on her
family history since 1969 and has writ-
ten six books on its branches, said cen-
digitized records for details on 132 mil-
lion people. Access to the records will be
free and open to anyone on the
Internet.
Every decade since 1942, the
National Archives has made
available records from past
censuses. Some privacy ad-
vocates have opposed releas-
ing such large amounts of
personal information about
living people.
The American Civil Liber-
ties Union, for instance, has for
over 30 years opposed any
unrestricted release of census
records.
Jay Stanley, a senior policy analyst at
the ACLU, said harm could come from
combining the rich 1940 census data
with other information.
Computer technology today allows
you to take information from different
sources and combine it into a very high
resolution image of somebodys life, he
said. Each particular piece of informa-
tion might just be one pixel. But when
brought together, they become very
intrusive.
This pho-
to shows
an image
of a post-
er used
for pro-
motional
efforts
during the
1940
Census.

Rico were counted in 1940,

LONDON Every email to
your child. Every status update
for your friends. Every message
to your mistress.
The U.K. government is pre-
paring proposals for a nation-
wide electronic surveillance net-
work that could potentially keep
track of every message sent by
anyBrit toanyoneat anytime, an
industry official briefed on the
governments moves said Sun-
day.
Plans for a massive govern-
ment database of the countrys
phone and email traffic were
abandoned in 2008 following a
public outcry. But James Bless-
ing of the Internet Service Pro-
viders Association said the gov-
ernment appears to be reintro-
ducing it on a slightly different
format.
Blessing said the move was
disclosed to his association by
Britains Home Office during a
meeting in recent weeks.
Britains Home Office declined
comment, saying an announce-
ment would have to be made to
Parliament first possibly as
soon as next month.
There was no indication of ex-
actly how such a system would
work or to what degree of judi-
cial oversight would be involved,
if any.
A Home Office spokesman in-
sisted that any new surveillance
program would not involve pry-
ing into the content of emails or
voice conversations. Its not
about the content, the official
said, speaking anonymously in
line with office policy. Its about
the who, what, where and
when.
In a statement, the Home Of-
fice said its vital that police and
intelligence services are able to
obtain communications data in
certain circumstances to investi-
gate serious crime and terror-
ism, and to protect the public.
Authorities already have ac-
cess to a huge wealth of commu-
nications data, although the
standards for retaining it differ
dependingonwhether, for exam-
ple, conversations are carried
out over the phone, in an email,
or over aninstant messagingpro-

ISTANBUL A coalition
of more than 70 partners, in-
cluding the United States,
pledged Sunday to send mil-
lions of dollars and commu-
nications equipment to Sy-
rias opposition groups, sig-
naling deeper involvement
in the conflict amid a grow-
ing belief that diplomacy
and sanctions alone cannot
end the Damascus regimes
repression.
The shift by the U.S. and
its Western and Arab allies
toward seeking to sway the
military balance in Syria car-
ries regional risks because
the crisis there increasingly
resembles a proxy conflict
that could exacerbate sectar-
ian tensions. The Syrian re-
bels are overmatched by
heavily armed regime forces.
The summit meeting of
the Friends of the Syrian
People fol-
lows a year
of failed di-
plomacy
that seems
close to run-
ning its
course with
a troubled
peace plan led by U.N.-Arab
League envoy Kofi Annan.
Indeed, U.S. Secretary of
State Hillary Rodham Clin-
ton and other participants at
the conference in Istanbul
uniformly expressed con-
cern that Annans plan might
backfire, speculating that
Syrian President Bashar As-
sad would try to manipulate
it to prolong his hold on
power.
Clinton said she was wait-
ing for Annans report to the
U.N. Security Council today
on the status of his peace
plan.
Clinton said the United
States is providing commu-
nications equipment to help
anti-government activists in
Syria organize, remain in
contact with the outside
world and evade regime at-
tacks.

STATE COLLEGE Keith
Masser was busy enough run-
ning his 4,600-acre potato farm
before his schedule
got even tighter the
past couple months.
In January, he be-
came the vice chair-
man of Penn States
Board of Trustees.
He likened the time
hes put into the lead-
ership position to
that of a second full-
time job.
Masser and other
board leaders are working to fos-
ter openness and ease tensions
on a campus on the mend from
the scandalous aftermath of
child sex abuse charges against
retired assistant football coach
Jerry Sandusky, who was arrest-
ed last fall. Eight of 10 boys he is
accused of abusing were at-
tacked on campus, prosecutors
allege.
The trustees remain a target of
criticism from vocal alumni
watchdog groups angered by
what critics have called the
boards rash decision to fire long-
time coach Joe Paterno, days af-
ter Sandusky was charged.
Masser hopes increased inter-
actions with students, faculty
and other university groups are
helping repair the rift. Board
leaders recently met with some
of the groups as part of an ongo-
ing listening tour.
A key component is accessi-
bility, Masser told The Associ-
ated Press in an interview this
month.
Were making ourselves ac-
cessible to them, he said. It cre-
ates transparency and openness,
which is relieving some of the
tension.
The board has begun an inter-
nal investigationof the Sandusky
case led by former FBI Director
Louis Freeh, but some critics
have complained about a lack of
transparency that they say has
raised questions about trustees
motivations.
Weve heard it all. We got
grilled in some of these listening
groups, Masser said before a re-
cent trustees meeting in Her-
shey.
Masser assumed his post in Ja-
nuary, when banking executive
Karen Peetz was also elected
chairwoman after their prede-
cessors stepped down.
The biggest issue is keeping
the difference between the Sand-
usky matters andthe crisis ... and
keeping focused on the future,
Peetz said. A lot of what were
working on ... is to keep us fo-
cused on the future. Thats an in-
credibly important role for the
trustees as we deal with whats
current, but we focus on where
we go.
Peetz has stressed three
themes early in her tenure:
changes in the boards commit-
tee structure related to govern-
ance; a continued focus on jus-
tice for the victims; and in-
creased transparency.
The listening tours appeared
to have quelled dissatisfaction
among some members of one in-
terested group, the University
Faculty Senate, which in January
had voted down a largely sym-
bolic vote of no confidence in the
board by a 2-to-1 margin. The
measure sought to chastise the
boardfor its handlingof the scan-
dal.
There are lingering concerns
amongsome faculty about the in-
dependence of Freehs investiga-
tion, said dairy and animal sci-
ences professor Daniel Hagen,
the Faculty Senate chair who is
also a member of the investiga-
tions committee.
Overall, though, Hagen has
said, Peetz and Masser have
stressed openness with the facul-
ty. The Faculty Senate has also
established a committee to look
at the functions and responsibil-
ities of the trustees ininteracting
with various university constitu-
encies. That report is due May
31. Freehs report is also expect-
ed to be ready later this year.
Peetz also points to the forma-
tion of a newtrustees committee
focused on outreach as a way to
increase communication.
Skeptics remain.
One watchdog group, Penn
Staters for Reforming the Board
of Trustees, has said its mission
is to amend the schools charter
to change the struc-
ture and functioning
of the board.
Trustee candidate
Joanne C. DiRinal-
do, an educator and
researcher, said this
week the board has
shown from my
eyes, incremental ba-
by steps. I would like
to see more drastic
attempts with trans-
parency.
She suggested potential
changes in bylaws that govern
rules of confidentiality of dissent
on the board, and to open up
trustees meeting to public par-
ticipation.
Unlike other vocal critics on
social media, DiRinaldo said she
does not favor the entire resigna-
tion of the board because she
could not judge how they made
their decisions behind closed
doors. I will say they arrived at
their decision hastily and with-
out due process.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. Earl
Scruggs was remembered Sun-
day as aninfluential, helpful and
humblebanjoplayer whoput his
own trademark on bluegrass
music.
Some 2,300 mourners attend-
ed Scruggs public funeral at the
Ryman Auditorium, where he
playedhis songs for years onthe
Grand Ole Opry country music
show and recorded his final al-
bum. The Academy of Country
Music planned a tribute Sunday
night at its annual awards show
in Las Vegas.
The pioneering banjo player
and his pickin partner Lester
Flatt, a guitarist, teamed for 20
years to become the most fa-
mous duo in bluegrass history.
Scruggs, a four-time Grammy
winner, died Wednesday at age
88.
Flatt and Scruggs were best
known for their song The Bal-
lad of Jed Clampett from The
Beverly Hillbillies TV series.
For many viewers, the humma-
blethemesongwas their first in-
troduction to country music.
Flatt died in1979
CharlieDaniels, better known
for his fiddle and guitar playing,
told the mourners that when he
was a young studio musician,
Scruggs invited him to join the
Earl Scruggs Revue.
Noonewill ever playtheban-
jo like Earl, Daniels said.
Country star Ricky Skaggs said
Scruggs was the most humble
musician I ever met.
He was always listening not at
himself butatthenextgeneration.
Bluegrass great Del McCoury
told the gathering that he was en-
thralled as a youngster by the
Scruggs sound.
If not for Earl Scruggs, I might
not have played music at all, said
McCoury, a guitarist.
Among the mourners was Von
Moye, who drove from Flat Top,
W.Va., for the funeral.
He had a gift, Moye, a banjo
player himself, said before the ser-
vice. He took three fingers and
gave it a whole newstyle.
Scruggs closed casket sat just
below the famous stage, with a
banjo just behind it. Adozen floral
arrangements decoratedthe stage.
Performers during the service
included McCoury, Skaggs, Bela
Fleck, EmmylouHarris, VinceGill,
Jon Randall Stewart, John
McEuen, Jim Mills, Marty Stuart
and Patty Loveless.
Thefuneral was near a cluster of
downtown honky-tonks where
Scruggs music is still played. His
plaque in the Country Music Hall
of Fame is three blocks away.

play prominently in the Obama
campaigns general election nar-
rative. While Obama is a million-
aire, Romney would be among
the nations wealthiest presi-
dents ever elected. And hes
opened himself to criticism
through a series of missteps.
Obamas team on Sunday also
seized on Romneys foreign pol-
icy inexperience.
Biden said Obama was stat-
ing the obvious when he told
Russian President Dmitry Med-
vedev that he would have more
latitude on missile defense after
the November general election.
The two presidents did not real-
ize the exchange, during a meet-
ing in Seoul, South Korea, last
weekend, was beingpickedupby
a microphone.
MILWAUKEE President
Barack Obamas administration
launched a multi-pronged as-
sault on Mitt Romneys values
and foreign policy credentials
Sunday, while a fresh set of
prominent Republicans rallied
behind the GOP front-runner as
the odds-on nominee, further
signs the general electionis over-
taking the primary season.
A defiant Rick Santorum out-
lined plans to leave Wisconsin
the day before the states contest
Tuesday, an indication that the
conservative favorite may be in
retreat, his chances to stop Rom-
ney rapidly dwindling.
I think the chances are over-
whelming that (Romney) will be
our nominee, Senate Minority
Leader Mitch McConnell said
Sunday on CNNs State of the
Union. It seems to me were in
the final phases of wrapping up
this nomination. Andmost of the
members of the Senate Republi-
can conference are either sup-
porting him, or they have the
view that I do, that its time to
turnour attentiontothe fall cam-
paignandbeginto make the case
against the president of the Unit-
ed States.
BothSecretary of State Hillary
Clinton and Vice President Joe
Biden went after Romney Sun-
day, underscoring the belief in-
side Obamas Chicago re-elec-
tion headquarters that Romney
will sooner than later se-
cure the right to face Obama this
fall. Their involvement comes as
both sides sharpen their general
election strategy, perhaps weeks
before the GOP contest formally
comes to an end.
The line of attack is likely to
Romney called it alarming
and part of a pattern of breath-
taking weakness with Ameri-
cas foes. He asked what else
Obama would be flexible on if he
were to win a second term.
Clinton seized on Romneys
comment that Russia is Ameri-
cas No. 1 geopolitical foe, call-
ing the statement dated and
suggesting there were more
pressing matters of concern in
global affairs.
I think its somewhat dated to
be looking backwards instead of
being realistic about where we
agree, where we dont agree,
Clinton told CNN Sunday.
But the administrations com-
ments may have been overshad-
owed Sunday by Romneys bal-
looning Republican support.
Rep. Paul Ryan, R-Wis., spent
the weekend at Romneys side
campaigning across Wisconsin,
one of three states tohost Repub-
lican primaries Tuesday. First-
term Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis.,
followed Ryans lead Sunday
morning.
Im coming out urging the
voters of Wisconsin: Lets lead.
Lets showthat this is the time to
bring this process to an end so
we can focus our attention on re-
tiring President Obama, John-
son said on NBCs Meet the
Press.
He later appeared at a pancake
brunchwithRomney andoffered
a message to every conserva-
tive: Ive spokenwithMitt, I to-
tally believe he is committed to
saving America.
The senator joins a growing
chorus of prominent Republi-
cans calling for the party to coa-
lesce behind Romneys candida-
cy. Romney also scored former
Florida Gov. Jeb Bush and his fa-
ther, President George H.W.
Bush, in recent days.
Ryans endorsement was par-
ticularly painful for Santorum,
who had been aggressively prais-
ing the congressman a fiscal
conservative hero in Wisconsin
and across the country for
much of the past week. That
praise ended Saturday, when
Santorum referred to Ryan as
some other Wisconsinite.
Santorums senior staff out-
lined an increasingly unlikely
path to victory that depends up-
on hypothetical success more
than a month away.
May is going to be a good
month for us, Santorum cam-
paign manager Mike Biundo
said. The race goes on.
Biundo confirmed that Santo-
rum is aggressively working the
phones to sway delegates in
states like Washington, Iowa,
Minnesota and Missouri that
have already voted. But hes hav-
ing mixed success.
We have some (delegates)
that have committed. I think
most people seem to right now
still be kind of waiting it out.
There seems to be a lot of that
thats going on, Biundo said.
Santorumwas publicly defiant
Sunday.
Look, this race isnt even at
halftime yet, he told Fox News
Sunday. He said Romney
hasnt been able to close the
deal with conservatives, much
less anybody else in this party.
And thats not going to be an ef-
fectivetool for us towinthis elec-
tion.

MILWAUKEE Republican
presidential contender Mitt
Romney may have forgotten that
Sunday was April Fools Day.
His staff did not.
This is a morning Im not go-
ingtoforget anytime soon, Rom-
ney told supporters a little later
in the day. They turned me into
the April fool this morning.
Campaign workers took Rom-
ney to a room he thought was
packed with supporters gathered
for a pancake brunch. It was sup-
posed to be his first campaign
stop Sunday as he courted Wis-
consin voters ahead of Tuesdays
primary.
Romney said Rep. Paul Ryan
9out into the ballroom first and
introduced Romney as he waited
backstage with his newest sup-
porter, Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis.
There were the standard back-
stage cues for where to stand,
along with Secret Service protec-
tion.
As Romney stood behind a
black curtain, Ryan offered his
usual enthusiastic endorsement,
singing Romneys praises as ap-
plause filtered backstage.
His staff warned himnot to ex-
pect a big crowd. That was an un-
derstatement.
Finally, it was time for Romney
and Johnson to step into the
room.
The two of us go out there,
and its completely empty.
Theres nobody there, a smiling
Romney said when his staff later
brought him to the right room,
where supporters had gathered,
upstairs.
Not only do they do that, but
they caught it on camera, Rom-
ney said. This is known as for-
give, but remember.
Staffers plan to post a video of
the prank on their blog.

In Memory of our Mother
You were a precious gift from God above,
so much beauty, grace and love.
You touched our hearts in so many ways,
your smile so bright even on the bad days.
You heard Gods whisper calling you home,
you didnt want to go and leave us alone.
You loved us so much, you held on tight,
till all the strength was gone
and you could no longer ght.
He had called your name twice before,
you knew you couldnt
make him wait anymore.
So you gave your hand to God
and slowly drifted away,
knowing that with our love we will
be together again some day.
Forever in our hearts,

Editorial
The bottom line is nobody wants
to take responsibility for liability
and maintenance.
TomLeighton
The Wilkes-Barre mayor says the city cannot afford
to take the lead on plans to build a skate park on a
vacant Water Street lot near the Luzerne County Courthouse.
HERES AN antidote for
this, Our Age of Endless
Corruption: The Luzerne
County Diogenes Project.
Lets look for the honest
people we all well, most
of us still believe exist.
Its almost a cliche of the area: strong
work ethic, loyal, devoted, commit-
ted.
Well, maybe not that last one. With so
many public officials committed to pris-
on, the word has developed a cutting con-
notation.
We know theyre out there: the honest
person who wont keep the extra money
when a clerk miscounts change, who will
always try to locate the owner of a lost
wallet, who attends church not out of guilt
or pride, but because the rite provides a
profound and restorative peace in an un-
certain world. Or the person who doesnt
attend church at all, but sure acts that
way.
The person who has sacrificed self to
family and friends daily, and if asked why,
would shrug with honest bewilderment at
the very idea of posing the question. Oh,
yes, they exist. They may be growing a
little sparser and harder to find, but they
unequivocally exist. I only need look at my
mother to know that. (Hi mom!)
They are not flawless; no human is.
They are merely less flawed, and less
flawed in very important ways.
They may occasionally succumb to some
charlatan who sells a convincing canard,
but it will never prompt an act of inequity
-- their moral compasses are true and,
more importantly, self-correcting.
Blinded zealots need not apply. It is easy
to live the moral life when the morals are
untested. One example: Anti-gays who
never had a loved one come out prob-
ably need not apply, though the important
thing here is to avoid preconceptions and
get to really know the person.
Those running for or holding public
office probably shouldnt bother, either, not
simply because others will suspect self-
aggrandizement, but because the very act
would negate the nomination.
And remember newspapers have re-
sources for checking facts, and I will use
them. Journalists certainly make mistakes
(its that human thing, again), but we scru-
tinize by profession and training.
Which is, incidentally, something the
people Im talking about would want us to
do before casting serious judgment upon
another.
Diogenes, by the way, was the Greek
philosopher best known for walking
around with a lantern looking for an hon-
est man. By at least one account, Plato
dubbed Diogenes a Socrates gone mad.
He was a cynic when the word meant
a school of philosophy, not a snickering,
constantly critical person.
Diogenes is famous for undercutting
conventions. Now that corruption has
become conventional in Luzerne County,
that seems a meaningful goal.
So point me to the person you believe
has proven repeatedly to be truly honest
and ethical.
If they (and you) convince me (and my
editors), Ill write about them. Though be
sure that, if said person turns out to be a
fake, Ill write about that, too.
Honest people are the best antidote to
laments of a culture of corruption.
If you know them, and if they want to
talk, tell me.
They are the anti-venom to corruptions
poison, the affirmative answer to the ques-
tion, Can this county be redeemed?

HE THREAT OF nu-
clear war has not dis-
appeared, of course.
But ever since the ter-
ror attacks on Sept. 11, 2001,
the growing concern in the in-
ternational community has
been about terrorist groups us-
ing nuclear weapons.
Two years ago, the first Nu-
clear Security Summit was
held at President Obamas beh-
est to discuss the prevention of
nuclear terrorism. The second
summit is in Seoul to come up
with effective measures.
The biggest danger would
be if a terrorist organization
manages to obtain a nuclear
weapon, either by theft or traf-
ficking, with plans to explode
it. But other forms of terrorism
must also be prevented, such
as spreading radiation by at-
tacking nuclear reactors, as
well as targeting vehicles or
ships and inciting widespread
fear by using dirty bombs
containing radioactive materi-
als.
First of all, there must be
stronger monitoring and
crackdowns on the nuclear
black market to prevent ter-
rorist organizations from ob-
taining nuclear materials and
technologies.
The world has become an
alarmingly dangerous place
with the trafficking of nuclear
material and technologies to
produce highly enriched,
weapons-grade uranium.
From uncovering the secret
international trafficking net-
works to investigating the illic-
it organizations, much more
cooperation is needed among
international society.
In the accident at the Fu-
kushima No. 1 nuclear power
plant, the situationwas exacer-
bated by the total power black-
out caused by the tsunami and
other factors. There is the dan-
ger of a similar situation aris-
ing if a terrorist group sabotag-
es a power plant and disrupts
the entire power supply.
The great lesson to be
learned from the Fukushima
disaster should be that mea-
sures are needed for all contin-
gencies, including accidents
and terrorist attacks. The un-
expected must not be labeled
soteigai (unforeseen) and
dismissed as such.

ANADAS Criminal
Code now makes it an
offense punishable by
a jail sentence of up to
14 years to counsel or assist
someone to commit suicide, or
to agree to be put to death.
With those of the boomer
generation inexorably enter-
ing their dotage years, and
their minds inevitably becom-
ing increasingly fixated on
their imminent death, assisted
suicide is a matter that pleads
for attention now.
An all-party committee of
the National Assembly has
done the entire country a
much-needed service by con-
ducting an in-depth study of
medically assisted dying. The
committee proposed that the
Quebec government refrain
from prosecuting doctors who
assist patients in dying so long
as the proposedprocedures are
respected.
The Conservative federal
government is reluctant to
move on this issue, but this is
an issue whose time for discus-
sion and resolution is at hand.

RMING THE Syrian
opposition groups is
an option that could
still be considered
with the crisis entering a deci-
sive phase.
The international communi-
ty, however, is waiting to see if
President Bashar Al Assad will
heed the recent unanimous
United Nations call to stop all
use of force and start negotia-
tions. All this while, there was
a parallel narrative underway
for lending support to the Syr-
ian activists and rebels against
the regime. So far this option
has been flung back and forth
without any effective plan
coming into shape.
There could be two reasons:
First, the larger international
community may have wanted
to exercise the diplomatic and
UNoption before jumping into
deeper waters and starting off
a proxy war. Second, and more
important is the disunity
among the opposition factions
under the umbrella entity, Syr-
ian National Council. It is time
Assad sees the writing on the
wall and thinks in term of the
national unity and the states
peace and stability.

Reader wonders where
all tax revenue has gone
J
ust about five or six years ago Penn-
sylvania held its own. Then, the casino
came; we now have 11 gaming houses.
Pennsylvania collected millions of dollars
in taxes on slot play last month and yet the
state has no money for our parks or to cut
peoples taxes. I thought thats what the
money was supposed to be used for, to
help the people of Pennsylvania. They just
wont tell us where its going. Why? Can
you tell us Mr. Yudichak?

Contraception likened to
demographic suicide
W
hen Pope Paul VI reaffirmed the
teaching of the Catholic Church on
artificial birth control in 1968, he
believed it would lead to deeper, richer,
loving relationships for married couples.
But he warned that if this teaching were
ignored, four major problems could result:
Widespread use of contraception, lead-
ing to unfaithfulness in spouses, and the
general lowering of morality.
Men would lose respect for women and
consider them as instruments of selfish
enjoyment. Women would suffer .
Public officials, unconcerned about the
religious beliefs of people in developing
countries, would make use of contracep-
tives a prerequisite for granting aid.
People would be misled into believing
that they had unlimited dominion over
their own bodies resulting in embryonic
experimentation, in vitro fertilization,
cloning and genetic manipulation. As a
result, the real purpose of sexuality, fertil-
ity and even marriage would be lost.
Today we can see some of the moral and
social consequences prophesied by Pope
Paul VI: (a) A worldwide increase in abor-
tions; (b) Birth rates falling; (c) More
medical professionals becoming execution-
ers; (d) Years of silence and even dissent
by many cardinals, bishops, priests and
theologians have added to the anxiety,
confusion and doubt in the minds of the
faithful;(e) The loss of faith of many due to
that silence and dissent; (f) More couples
cohabitating;(g) Adoption agencies clos-
ing; (h) Increase in venereal diseases; (i)
Increased acceptance of euthanasia.
In other words, contraception can be
referred to as demographic suicide, de-
stroying youth, the family and nations.

Dallas station delivers
service with a smile
W
e were all packed and ready to back
out of our garage for a trip to Florida
when we discovered a flat tire. We
called our serviceman Woody LaBar of
Dallas and he came to our house in Chase,
removed the wheel, and took it to Dallas
for repair. He returned and put the wheel
back on. All of this was done within an
hour and half from our first call, and at a
very reasonable price. Needless to say, the
day started out on a sour note but Woody
sure provided a very happy ending. Our
trip went well and we send our sincere
thanks to Woody LaBar for an outstanding
job.

amount of education they would
be required to attain before em-
barking on a new career and also
learn about the demands of the
career andwhat potential growth
can be expected, he added.
They could tell them what a
typical work day was like, he
said.
Ellie Toczko and her daughter
Haley from Tunkhannock, at-
tended because Haley, an eighth
grader, is admittedly undecid-
ed about what career she wants
to pursue. They talked to repre-
sentatives fromthe medical field,
finance and engineering.
Now is the time to get seri-
ous, Ellie Toczko said. Haley
has to start choosing.
We are learning what is re-
quired for each career, she said.
We got insight on everything in-
cluding financial aid.
Kathryn Davis, producer from
WVIA who partnered with the
LIU in putting the day together,
said it provided valuable educa-
tion.
It gets parents involved with
the children to help them get on
the right path, Davis said.
Koons expects the planning
day to become an annual event
based on the interest level
shown. Families want to be able
to help their children find the
right careers, and there are many
local opportunities, he said.

Keller also pointed out that
Route 118 is a major route from
Wilkes-Barre to Williamsport.
The school buses from the
Northwest Area School District
also travel the route. Also, the
busy traffic area is the route trav-
eled by the gas drilling water
trucks that run out of William-
sport going toward the northern
destinations. Several tractor-
trailers, tri-axle trucks, Pikes
Quarry and American Asphalt
also utilize the route.
There are enough fatalities
in this area as it is, Keller said.
Last year there was a double fa-
tality.
He also said that until the re-
pairs are done, flashing lights or
a warning sign should be placed
near the area to warn the ap-
proaching traffic of the danger-
ous situation.

Fairmount Township Supervisor and Fire Chief Dave Keller looks over damage done to state
Route 118 near Ricketts Glen, caused by the flooding in Sept of 2011.
nearlyhalf of theRepublicans sur-
veyed were undecided, while
preference for the candidates was
divided among the rest of those
polled. A poll from Franklin &
Marshall College in Lancaster re-
leased Wednesday showed that
four in five voters are undecided
in the race.
On Wednesday, Welch began
running his first TVad statewide.
Smith has aired TV ads since De-
cember, and has one running
statewide, except for in the Phila-
delphia market. The rest have not
advertised on TV.
Casey, a Democrat, is seeking a
secondsix-year termafter unseat-
ing Rick Santorum in 2006.
Each of his would-be challen-
cans will likely make decisions in
the April 24 primary based on
other things, such as background
or name familiarity.
You have a supermajority of
undecided voters and its going to
come down to, Can you get your
message out and put together a
groundorganizationthat canturn
out voters and educate those vot-
ers? said Peter Towey, Welchs
campaign manager.
One problem is that only one
candidate has run for a statewide
office Rohrer in the 2010 gu-
bernatorial primary, unsuccess-
fully and the other is that the
GOP presidential primary and
higher-profile Senate races inoth-
er states are absorbing attention
and donor money.
Public Policy Polling of Ra-
leigh, N.C., found this month that
gers has some sort of political ex-
perience.
Besides losing the 2010 pri-
mary to Gov. Tom Corbett, Rohr-
er served 18 years in the state
House representing part of Berks
County. Scaringi, who lives in
suburban Harrisburg, worked on
the campaigns of Rick Santorum
for U.S. Senate and Mike Fisher
for state attorney general before
joiningbothmens offices inanof-
ficial capacity.
Welch filed to run in two U.S.
Housedistricts insuburbanPhila-
delphia for the 2010 election be-
foredroppingthat ideaandvolun-
teeringfor Pat Toomeys U.S. Sen-
ate campaign. Smith was a mem-
ber of the Plumcreek Township
board of super-
visors in Arm-
strong County.
Christian ran
twice in the
1980s, unsuc-
cessfully, for
U.S. House in
Bucks County.
Three of the candidates are be-
ing attacked by rival campaigns.
Rohrer, who represented Berks
County in the House for 18 years,
voted in 2001 to increase his and
other legislators pensions and
again in 2005 to increase his and
other legislators pay.
Welch, of Chester County,
switched his registration to the
Democratic Party in 2005 and
voted in the 2008 Democratic
presidential primary for Ba-
rack Obama, he said. He says he
switched parties after becoming
disenchanted with Washington,
D.C., and insists he voted for Re-
publican John McCain in the
2008 general election.
The state Republican Party en-
dorsement vote in February has
brought Welchthe opportunity to
appear at news conferences with
some of the partys leading lights,
including National GOP chair-
man Reince Priebus, but its also
drawn attacks during candidate
forums after Corbett went to ex-
traordinary lengths to ensure a
Welch victory.
Then theres Tom Smith of
ArmstrongCounty, whois largely
retired from a coal-mining enter-
prise he founded. For practically
his entire votinglife, he was regis-
tered as a Democrat, and even
voted in the 2010 Democratic pri-
maryalthoughheclaims not to
remember who he voted for.
Smiths campaign responded
that he has otherwise acted like a
conservative and supported con-
servatives.
The money advantage is
Smiths, who has plowed millions
of his personal wealth into his
campaign already, and Welchs,
who also is tapping his own con-
siderable bank account and has
the fundraising machinery of the
state party to help. Thus far, no
major outside group is putting
money intothe race inaneffort to
tip the scales.
In terms of organization,
Welchs efforts should benefit
from the volunteers who tradi-
tionally aid the campaigns of par-
ty-endorsedcandidates. Rohrer is
relyingonanetworkof social con-
servatives and tea party-style ac-
tivists still in place from his 2010
campaign for governor.
It remains to be seen whether
the GOP presidential race lasts
long enough to drive up voter
turnout in the sleepy U.S. Senate
primary.
One Rohrer supporter, Alfred
Kiser of the Northwest Pennsyl-
vania Tea Party and a member of
the Erie County GOPcommittee,
said one group of people can be
counted on either way.
The tea party-type people are
the ones that are going to go
vote, Kiser said. I guarantee
you.

nowis the perfect time to open a
new business in the city.
For many years I thought
about opening something like
this. And when the health sci-
ences building came across the
street, and also the culinary
school, I decided to put things in
gear so the students have a place
to come for lunch, Coffee said.
Main Street got its first major
facelift in decades when Luzerne
County Community College
built and opened a culinary arts
institute across the street and a
block west of Coffees building in
the fall of 2010.
State Sen. John Yudichak, D-
Plymouth Township, attended
Coffees grandopeningonMarch
14. He said in a press release that
the partnership between be-
tween the city, state and LCCC
has led to nearly $20 million in
downtown investment with the
$12 million health sciences cen-
ter and $7.5 million culinary in-
stitute.
This is an exciting time for
Nanticoke. These projects are
also fostering an entrepreneurial
spirit for business people like
Ms. Coffee to invest in the down-
town, Yudichak, a Nanticokena-
tive, said in a prepared state-
ment.
Coffee agreed that the timing
couldnt be better for opening
her shop.
We get a lot of dental stu-
dents, nursing students, some of
the faculty come in. And I decid-
ed to have our uniforms as chef
coats. We were inspired by the
culinary school, so I thought it
would be a nice touch, Coffee
said.
Some sweet additions
Two of Coffees five part-time
employees are LCCC students;
one of them, a pastry arts major,
makes some of the delectable
desserts filling a display case.
Students, facultyandpolice of-
ficers love the $5 daily lunch spe-
cials, Coffee said, and the
smoothies and frozen hot choco-
late are big hits too. But Coffee
caters to ethnic tastes as well.
The panini sandwiches are
very popular, and in honor of the
many people of Polish descent
who live here, we have kielbasa
paninis, Coffee said.
But trendy offerings are the
heart of the menu.
We have a different fla-
vored water every day. Today it
was orange, yesterday we had
pineapple water. That is definite-
ly a signature of Miami. They do
that at a lot of hotel lobbies in
Miami. Thats where I got the
idea, Coffee said.
Tiger Sauce a spicy mayon-
naise with secret ingredients is
the signature condiment upon
request, and jalapenos and jala-
peno cheese are also available
good toppers for the shops fat
dogs that are twice as fat as reg-
ular hot dogs.
Coffees employees are all
trained baristas, able to properly
steamand foammilk for the cap-
puccinos and lattes, that is, after
a couple weeks of training that
included milk spray on the ceil-
ing, she said with a laugh.
Several two-seater tables with
comfortablechairs, alunchcoun-
ter with high-back stools and an
overstuffed loveseat add to the
ambiance, along with free wire-
less internet and an online juke-
box.
I tried to make it trendy for
the students. I tried to make it
with a Miami flair, Coffee said.
Adding a little decor
But Coffee isnt limiting the
breath of fresh air to the shops
interior. She was the first Main
Street business owner to apply
for and secure faade grant.
Were changing all the win-
dows, were doing a whole re-
modeling of the front of the
building, were puttingupa light-
ed canopy with our name on and
were adding outdoor seating,
Coffee said.
Cityadministrator HollyCirco
believes the faade grant pro-
gram is another good motivator
for new and existing business
owners like Coffee to invest in
the city. The city andstate match
will kick in up to $5,000 each to
match the business owners in-
vestment in a new faade.
Were excited she made this
investment in our city. Were
hoping the community colleges
expansion and Kims opening
the coffee shop will help other
speculators see downtown Nan-
ticoke is a place thats growing in
the future.
Circo said Bartuskas Furni-
ture, Antonios Pizza and Nar-
dozzos Pizza & Pierogies also
have applied for faade grants
and the city is in discussion with
two other businesses. Council
President Steve Duda says the
programis a win-win. We invite
any business to come and invest
in our city. Its a joint venture. If
theyre successful, the city is suc-
cessful; thats our philosophy,
he said.
Making more moves
Coffee saidbusiness is so good
and feedback so positive that
shes already considering ex-
pandingtheshopintoaspacenext
door that she uses for storage.
Ive been getting people who
say, This is great, this is just what
the downtown needs, I hope it
continues up the street, Coffee
said.
Nanticoke Mayor Joseph
Dougherty said he sees Coffees
shop and the eventual faade im-
provements of other businesses as
steps towardrevitalization, andhe
hopes townspeople will support
the businesses.
Nomatter the size, any stepto-
ward revitalization is a positive.
Private investment is very impor-
tant to downtown revitalization.
Idlike to see things move quicker,
but projects like this take time.
We need to have patience-
,Dougherty said.
Coffee is counting on Dough-
ertys support as well.
He saidhe lovedthe place. He
said it was awesome. I told him
when people come in and ask
why I would open a place like
this in Nanticoke, I say, Why not
Nanticoke? Coffee said. He
loved that.

NEW ORLEANS Jayhawks or
Wildcats, take your pick. Either can
make a case for this being their year.
ForKansas, aseasonthat startedwith
low expectations keeps getting better,
filled with high-wire comebacks and an
inescapable feelingthat this was simply
meant to be.
For Kentucky, a cadre of NBA-caliber
players have had the word champion
practically imprinted on their chests
since they gathered at Rupp Arena for
the seasons first practice.
They meet tonight for the NCAA
championship, a history-filled matchup
between the two winningest programs
in college basketball history. This is the
one-and-dones at Kentucky vs. juniors
and seniors at Kansas; Anthony Davis
vs. Thomas Robinson in a front-court
battle of All-Americans; a title-game
coachingrematchbetweenJohnCalipa-
ri and Bill Self; a high-stakes meeting
between one team whose founder in-
vented the game and another that likes
to claim its legendary coach perfected
it.
Kentucky (37-2), in search of its
eighth national title but its first since
1998, has five, maybe six, players who
will be playing in the NBA soon. Most
are freshmen and sophomores. None
arebetterthanDavis, the6-foot-10fresh-
man who had 18 points, 14 rebounds
and five blocks in Kentuckys 69-61 win
over Louisville in the semifinals.
Anthony Davis is a great player, but
hes not Superman, Self said, clearlyig-
noring the fact that, only moments ear-
lier, Davis had been walking around the
Superdome with his practice jersey
slung across his shoulders like a cape.

chrivals, the Penguins appear to
have had enough.
Just as notable as Philadel-
phias spirited rally from yet an-
other two-goal deficit was the
extended brawl with just over a
minute to play that left the
coaches of both teams scream-
ing at each other across the
glass.
Philadelphia coach Peter La-
violette called out Pittsburgh
counterpart Dan Bylsma for
sending out his checking line
shortly after Voraceks empty-net
goal pushed the lead to 6-3.
Penguins forward Joe Vitale
leveled Daniel Briere shortly af-
ter the ensuing faceoff, starting a
chain of events that included La-
violette smashing a stick over
the glass and all 10 players on
the ice going at it.
Those guys hadnt been out
there in 12 minutes, Laviolette
said. Its a gutless move by their
coach. Its gutless.
Bylsma didnt quite see it that
way, claiming Vitales shot on
Briere was clean, unlike the
crosscheck Pittsburgh star Sid-
ney Crosby received from Bray-
den Schenn shortly after Steve
Sullivans second goal of the
game pulled the Penguins within
5-3 late in the third period.
Its clearly a cheap shot, By-
lsma said. Its clearly a guy tar-
geting a player that was well af-
ter the whistle.
Crosby, who has missed all but
19 games this season due to con-
cussion-like symptoms, agreed.
Its pretty cheap, Crosby
said. He skates 10 feet in be-
tween the whistle. I dont know.
If thats a sign of whats to come
its going to be a pretty tough
playoff series.
One that wont even start until
the teams meet again in the reg-
ular-season finale next Saturday.

N C A A T O U R N A M E N T
NEW ORLEANS (AP) A look
at Monday nights national cham-
pionship game:
KENTUCKY
ROAD TO THE TITLE GAME
No. 1 Kentucky beat No. 16
Western Kentucky 81-65; No. 8
Iowa State 87-71; No. 4 Indiana
102-90; No. 3 Baylor 82-70; No. 4
Louisville 69-61.
STAR
Freshman Anthony Davis lived
up to his billing as national play-
er of the year with 18 points, 14
rebounds and five blocks in the
win over Louisville. He was 7 of 8
from the field and added to his
personal highlight reel with a
one-handed dunk off an alley-
oop pass and a flying leap off the
court and over a row of media.
One real positive was the way he
called for the ball in the post in
the second half as the Wildcats
struggled from the perimeter.
COACH
This will be John Caliparis
second championship game. His
first was with Memphis four
years ago an overtime loss to
Kansas and coach Bill Self. Cali-
paris strategy of not fouling with
the lead before a 3-point shot
could be attempted was ques-
tioned as Mario Chalmers buried
a late 3 to tie the game and force
overtime. Calipari did win the last
meeting against Self, 75-65, at
Madison Square Garden in the
second game of the season.
KEY POINT
Kentuckys roster is still loaded
with NBA-level talent, but the
Wildcats didnt look like the of-
fensive juggernaut it had been
throughout the NCAA tourna-
ment, failing to reach the 80-
point mark for the first time. But
the defense was just as good, if
not better, holding Louisville to
34.8 percent shooting from the
field, a stat the Wildcats led the
nation in this season. One player
who will be looking to make
amends will be freshman Michael
Kidd-Gilchrist who was limited to
23 minutes because of foul trou-
ble but still managed a couple of
big dunks as the Wildcats took
control in the final minutes.
KANSAS
ROAD TO THE TITLE GAME
No. 2 Kansas beat No. 15 De-
troit 65-50; beat No. 10 Purdue
63-60; No. 11 North Carolina State
60-57; No. 1 North Carolina 80-
67; beat No. 2 Ohio State 64-62.
STAR
Thomas Robinson took over
the semifinal in the second half,
finishing with 19 points and eight
rebounds. It was his presence
inside that allowed the Jayhawks
to finish with a 42-30 rebound
advantage and stymied Ohio
States frontcourt of Jared Sull-
inger and Deshaun Thomas, who
were a combined 8 for 33 from
the field. This matchup pits him
against Davis, his competition for
national player of the year.
COACH
Bill Self has a chance to join
the select group of multiple
championship coaches. He is 3-0
in his two Final Four appear-
ances, and the latest win looked
a lot like the Jayhawks others in
this tournament they found a
way to win. Not much of a spot-
light grabber, Self is considered
one of the best in-game coaches,
and his teams are known for the
ability to shake off a poor first
half, usually with a better defen-
sive performance.
KEY POINT
Robinson did what is expected
of him in the win over Ohio State;
7-foot center Jeff Withey had
eight rebounds and seven as-
sists; and Elijah Johnson added
13 points and 10 rebounds a big
effort from the guard who
doesnt get most of the attention.
Tyshawn Taylor, the guard whos
considered Robinsons co-star,
had 10 points and nine assists. He
also had five turnovers in-
cluding a potential devastating
one with 3.8 seconds left and
was 0 for 3 from 3-point range,
leaving him 0 for 20 from be-
yond the arc in the tournament.
THE SKINNY
These are the two winningest
programs in college basketball
history. Each has an all-America
big man and guards capable of
taking over a game. The coaches
are on most short lists of the
best in the sport. This game has
all the angles covered. Come on,
what more do you want?
THE PICK
Most of the bracket sheets
that havent been shredded still
have Kentucky, the overall No. 1
seed, winning it all. The dream
scenario would be for Kentucky
to have a slim lead with the clock
ticking down. The flashbacks to
San Antonio in 2008 would be
popping into everyones mind.
Why not the same result? Kansas
73-71.
T H E M A T C H U P
NEW ORLEANS Monday
nights national championship
gamewill bethesecondtimethis
season Kentucky and Kansas
meet with all of college basket-
ball watching.
The first matchup was in mid-
November at Madison Square
Gardenaspart of adoubleheader.
Second-ranked Kentucky beat
No. 12Kansas 75-65, but it wasnt
the featuredgame.
That happened to be the night
Duke beat Michigan State 74-69
to give Mike Krzyzewski his
903rdcareer victory, the one that
moved him past Bob Knight to
the top of Division Is all-time list
for mens basketball.
This time around the Wildcats
andJayhawksarethemainattrac-
tion.
Five months ago, sophomores
Doron Lamb and Terrence Jones
led the Wildcats to the victory
withAnthony Davis, one of three
freshmen starters, having seven
of the teams 13 blocked shots.
Kentucky wasnt very smooth of-
fensively that day, committing19
turnovers, a figure they topped
only twice all season.
Michael Kidd-Gilchrist had 12
pointsandninereboundsforKen-
tucky, while fellow freshman
Marquis Teague also scored 12
points.
Tyshawn Taylor scored 22
points to lead the Jayhawks,
whileThomasRobinsonadded11
points and 12 rebounds before
fouling out with3:31to go.
Taylor proved to be a pretty
good analyst with his postgame
assessment.
Really, really, really talented
one through seven. Two or three
games in, theyregoingtobereal-
ly, reallygoodoncetheyget more
practice and more reps, he said
then. Alot of the guys are young
still. I think theyre going to be
amazing.
Kentucky shot 51percent from
the field including 7 of 15 3-point
attempts. Kansas shot just 33.9
percent and made only 4 of 15
frombeyondthe arc.
Both teams are a lot different
now, especially on defense, and
the players who were so new to
college basketball then are griz-
zled veterans with almost 40
games under their belts.
OnSunday, Davis, the APplay-
er of the year, said his biggest
memory of the November game
is that Robinson, alsoa first-team
all-America, was saddled by foul
trouble.
I know how that is, Davis
said. Its hard to play. You cant
be aggressive.
Robinson will approach this
game differently.
The first time we played Ken-
tucky I allowed them to do their
best to me emotionally andphys-
ically. I played a horrible game,
hesaidSunday. Thebiggest part
of why we lost that game is be-
cause I was kind of selfish and
triedtodoeverythingbymyself. I
cant let that happeninthisgame.
Infact, Iwontletthathappenthis
game.
Jones was more downthe mid-
dle.
Its hard to judge this game
with that game, he said Sunday.
Its hardtodowhenteams get so
much better. We have gotten bet-
ter, andthey have gottenbetter.
Second time around for Cats, Jayhawks
By JIMOCONNELL
AP Basketball Writer
ever amount of time they spendin
the Commonwealth.
I dont like the rules, Calipari
said. I want Anthony to come
back and be my point guard next
year. Its really what I want.
Theresonlytwosolutionstoit. Ei-
ther I can recruit players who are
not as good as the players Im
recruiting or I can try to convince
guys who should leave to stay for
me.
He wont do either. By pulling
no punches, the coach finds him-
self working with the most talent
Davis and Michael Kidd-Gil-
christ are likely lottery picks,
while Terrence Jones, Marquis
Teague and Doron Lamb are
among the others with first-round
potential.
Calipari is a win away from the
first national title of a stormy and
controversial career, one that be-
gan as a volunteer assistant at
Kansas. His first two trips to the
Final Four have been vacated be-
cause of NCAA violations.
Though his 2008 trip with Mem-
phis is no longer in the record
books, its clearly emblazoned in
his memory.
That team, ledby DerrickRose,
hadone essential flawbadfree-
throw shooting and the coach
dismissed it every time he was
asked about it in the days and
weeks leading to his final against
Self and the Jayhawks. The Tigers
missed four free throws down the
stretch and blewa nine-point lead
in what turned into an overtime
loss that gave Kansas its third
NCAA title.
Lessons learned? Well, Calipari
doesmakehisteamrunmoreafter
bad free-throwshooting nights.
But regrets? Not many.
At the end of the day, we had a
nine-point lead,hesaid. I haveto
figure something out. Go shoot
the free throws myself, do some-
thingtoget us out of that gymand
I didnt.
A year later, Cal was out of
Memphis and putting the pieces
in place for his run at Kentucky. It
began with a trip to the Elite
Eight, continued last year with a
spot in the Final Four and odd-
smakers have Kentucky as a 6.5-
point favorite to seal the deal this
year against Kansas.
Doesnt bother us, Kansas
guard Tyshawn Taylor said.
Theyve got high expectations,
andtheyhadagreat year sotheex-
pectations should be high. What
wethink, though, is that wematch
up with them well. We feel confi-
dent going into this game.
And why not?
Thoughthetalent level maynot
be as strong as Kentuckys from
top to bottom, the Jayhawks
(32-6) get more reinforcement ev-
ery game that anything is possi-
ble.
On Saturday, they overcame a
13-point deficit against Ohio State
for their latest escape act. Before
that in the tournament, they won
close ones against Purdue, North
Carolina State and North Caroli-
na. They were comeback kids in
the regular season, as well a
seasonthat beganwithlowexpec-
tations for a roster that got hit
hard by graduation and other de-
partures, then fell to 7-3 after an
ugly, unexpectedhome loss toDa-
vidson.
I was a little frustratedbecause
I thought that we were under-
achieving, underperforming, Self
said. I thought we were a stale
team. I thought we were slow. I
thought we didnt play with great
energy. I thought the things we
had to do to be successful, we we-
rent committing to doing them.
NCAA
Continued from Page 1B
NEWORLEANS Agood
story is worth re-telling.
With Kentucky coach John
Calipari facing Kansas for the
NCAAtitle just as he did in
2008 when he was at Memphis,
he fondly recalled his days as a
volunteer assistant in Law-
rence, Kan. He talked about
being able to eat steak, which
he never did growing up, and
putting on weight.
He even re-told the story
about being the man with the
ladle at the training table.
And not in a Boy, this sounds
familiar, way.
Word for word.
I would serve peas or corn.
What would you like? Ill be
there early for practice if you
want to do some extra shooting.
What would you like, peas or
corn? Thats what I did, Cali-
pari said in 2008.
I would be in the line.
Would you like peas or corn?
Peas? Great, Calipari said
Sunday, even dropping in the
laugh-getter about the extra
shooting.
Even if the stories are
canned, the affection Calipari
feels for his days at Kansas is
genuine. Its where he met his
wife, Ellen, who worked in the
schools business office. And its
where he got his start in basket-
ball.
Calipari has come a long way
since then.
He has taken the Wildcats to
the Final Four twice in his first
three seasons at Kentucky and
will make his second appear-
ance in the NCAAchampion-
ship Monday night. Hes got
kids recruiting himas much as
the other way around, and he is
among the highest-paid coaches
in the country, making more
than $4 million this season
alone.
Quite a change fromthat first
job.
When Ted Owens asked me
to join his staff, I said, What
position? Calipari recalled
Sunday. He said, Volunteer. I
said, Howmuch does that guy
make?
BLOCKPARTY: Kansas
coach Bill Self is willing to
anoint Kentucky star Anthony
Davis as the nations best shot
blocker. Self also believes the
Jayhawks have a close second.
Jeff Withey, the former vol-
leyball player fromthe beaches
of San Diego, has emerged in
the NCAAtournament as one of
the premier defensive players in
the game. He blocked10 shots
in a win over N.C. State, and
then caused all kinds of trouble
for Ohio State star Jared Sull-
inger.
The 7-footer swatted seven
shots, altering half a dozen
more.
Guys like Anthony and guys
like Jeff cover up mistakes, Self
said. Thats a big advantage.
Withey already has set the
school record with137 blocks
and has at least five in a game11
times, while Davis has set an
NCAAfreshman record with
180 this season.
The way the two go about
things is slightly different.
Withey uses his height and
wingspan to overwhelmoppo-
nents, whether its a guard
trying to get to the rimsuch
as the Buckeyes WilliamBu-
ford or a big guy like Sull-
inger. Meanwhile, Davis uses
his uncanny quickness to close
come across the lane and block
shots seemingly out of no-
where.
He was 6-3, he grewto 6-10
hes nimble like a guard. He
doesnt try to block it in your
hands. He lets you release it.
Thats what great shot-blockers
do, Kentucky coach John Cali-
pari said. Hes nimble. Hes
quick to the ball. Hes got a
quick twitch.
COACHINGAWARD: Kan-
sas is guaranteed to leave New
Orleans with at least one tro-
phy.
Bill Self was selected the
Naismith Coach of the Year on
Sunday, beating out his oppo-
nent in Monday nights NCAA
title game, Kentuckys John
Calipari. Syracuse coach Jim
Boeheimand Missouris Frank
Haith also were finalists for the
award, given by the Atlanta
Tipoff Club.
TUNINGUP: The Fray is
scheduled to sing the national
anthembefore the NCAAtitle
game Monday night.
The Grammy-nominated
band released its third full-
length album, Scars and Sto-
ries, in February. Its first al-
bum, Howto Save a Life,
went double platinum.

Sunday in New Orleans.
Calipari remembers his time in Kansas
The Associated Press
Saturday night, when the Jay-
hawks trailed Ohio State by 13
points, and figured they had a
chanceif theycouldget thelead
under 10 by halftime. Travis Re-
lefords layup at the buzzer
made it a nine-point game.
You come to expect those
things out of this team, Zenger
said Sunday.
The Jayhawks eventually
would fend off the Buckeyes in
the final minutes, walking the
same tightrope theyve tee-
tered on all tournament long
right into the national cham-
pionship game.
Theyll attempt to win per-
haps their most improbable ti-
tle tonight against Kentucky.
Youeither have that vantage
point in life or you dont, and I
tend to approach life from that
vantage point, Zenger said,
when asked whether things
happen for a reason.
This team, youhave a bunch
of overachievers who wont
quit, much like their coach, and
they just will themselves to vic-
tory, he said. You dont ever
thinkof Kansas as anunderdog,
but weve been one most of the
tournament, andtheyveplayed
with some freedom and tenac-
ity.
Theyve needed every ounce
of tenacity, every bit of nerves,
just about every time.
Its a departure from most
seasons at Kansas, where wins
are judged by margin of victory.
Sure, there have been plenty
of blowouts, but there have
been many more close games
tight losses toDuke andMis-
souri, tighter wins over the Boi-
lermakers and Wolf Pack.
Theyre games that steeled a
veteranteamfor the stretchrun
and gave a scrappy collection of
overachievers the confidence to
keep going when things get
rough and time is running out.
The ones that we won, it felt
sogoodtocome backandtake a
game from somebody, and I
think we like that feeling, said
Elijah Johnson. Theres been
some situations where weve
been behind and had to fight
back, and at Kansas, we dont
lie down. We fight back.

me. Hes a male father figure to

So its tough love some-

I dont care howhe says it; I just
listen to what hes saying.
The episode toughened

Hes got that chance now.
Kentucky(37-2) facesKansas
(32-6) onMonday inthe nation-
al championship in New Or-
leans, but Jones will need to
play a bigger role that he did in
the national semifinals.
In Kentuckys 69-61 win over
Louisville, Jones was hardly no-
ticeable in the first half and fin-
ished with six points and seven
rebounds in33 minutes. Calipa-
ri sought out Jones repeatedly
to howl at his play including
once when Jones attempted a
weak layup.
Calipari mimicked Jones ef-
fort andyelled: Dunkit onhim!
Dunk it on him!
Ive been playing for him for
two years, and I knowwhen Im
explaining what I thought, if he
tells me hes right, hes right,
Jones said.
Is Calipari ever wrong?
After he watches tape some-
times, Jones said. But not at
the moment, no.
Calipari pretended that he
didnt know about the January
2011 incident when he was
askedabout it Sunday. During a
loss at Alabama, Calipari called
Jones selfish amid a string of
expletives as Jones turns and
walks away.
He knows how I feel about
him. Hes like a sontome, Cali-
pari said. This kid, what hes
doing, what hes done, how far
hes come, Imjust proudof him.
I mean, hes more focused, hes
got a better skill set.

MARTINSVILLE, Va. Ryan
Newman ended a 22-race winless
streakby holdingonfor the victo-
ry at Martinsville Speedway on
Sunday, grabbingthe leadwhena
three-wide accident took out
leading teammates Jeff Gordon
and Jimmie Johnson with two
laps to go.
Gordon, who dominated all
day, and Johnson seemed poised
for a showdown in a green-white-
checker finish, each eager to give
Hendrick Motorsports its 200th
victory.
But as the green flag flew on
lap 503, Clint Bowyer sneakedin-
side Gordons car heading into
the first turn, and the three cars
slid up the track as Newman
zipped past.
A.J. Allmendinger finishedsec-
ond, followed by Dale Earnhardt
Jr., Matt Kenseth and Martin
Truex Jr. Johnson wound up12th
andGordon, wholedfor 328laps,
finished 14th.
The finish overshadowed what
had been a stirring duel between
Gordon, a seven-time winner on
the 0.526-mile oval, and Johnson,
a six-time winner. It seemed cer-
tain to end with one of them giv-
ing owner Rick Hendrick a land-
mark Sprint Cup victory.
Johnson first took the lead
when he passed Gordon on the
356th lap. He lost it on pit road,
then passed Denny Hamlin on
lap 393. He held off a modest
challenge by Gordon with about
30 laps to go and then dueled
side-by-side with Gordon until
the caution, which came when
David Reutimann ran out of gas
near the entrance to turn one.
Gordon, who had just nudged
in front of Johnson before the yel-
low flew, was the leader, with
Johnsonsecondandeveryone be-
hind themheading to pit road for
tires.
What had been an atypically
clean raced turned into mayhem
on the restart.
We were not a dominate race
car, Newman said. Clint kind of
cleared out Turn One for us and
we were fortunate enough to be
in the right place at the right
time.
Earnhardt, whowas inposition
to give Hendrick a sweep of the
top three spots before the cau-
tion, saideveryone beingonfresh
tires played a factor in the crash.
We all tookoff andranintothe
back of the leaders, all of us, he
said.
Earnhardt didnt blame Bo-
wyer for trying to take the inside
line, but was at a loss to explain
what Reutimann was thinking.
I would like an explanation on
why that happened, he said of
Reutimann stopping where he
did after having made several
laps with trouble without going
to the pits. "There doesnt seem
like there could be a logical rea-
son for himto have to stop on the
track.
Reutimann said his motor just
died.
I would not have stopped on
the freaking racetrack. I would
have limped it around there and
come to pit road, which is what I
was trying to do, he said. The
thing quit going down the back
straightaway, andit shut off. I just
didnt stop there intentionally.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. Will
Power wastednotime disproving
his own theory.
Power started ninth, took the
lead on a late caution and pulled
back in front of Scott Dixon on
the double-file restart with 16
laps left Sunday to the Indy
Grand Prix of Alabama for the
second straight year.
So much for his stance two
days earlier that it would be
tough for anybody opening out-
side the top four to win on a
course that typically features in-
frequent passing. Power showed
it could be done by making up
ground with the help of tire strat-
egy and swift work on pit road.
He started on the faster alter-
nate red-striped tires instead of
the more durable black.
We started on black tires
when everybody started on red,
and then went to red when every-
one was on black, Power said.
That got us a couple of spots.
And then just good stops and
good strategy calls put me out in
clean air so we could use our
speed to make some passes.
It was a very good teameffort,
an absolute team effort to put
ourselves in position to win,
which I did not think was possi-
ble this morning.
It was the second straight win
for Chevrolet and Team Penske,
whichalsois 3for 3at Barber Mo-
torsports Park.
Power and Dixon pulled away
from the field for a 1-2 finish, just
like a year ago. St. Petersburg
winner and pole-sitter Helio Cas-
troneves of Penske edged Gra-
ham Rahal for third.
The way the car finished at
the end of the day, I have to be ve-
ry happy with third, Castro-
neves said. Thats the best we
could do.
Power had his fast qualifying
time in the second session negat-
ed because a caution came down
during his run, forcing the Aus-
tralian out of his more familiar
front-runner status at Barber,
where he had held the pole the
past two years. He still managed
to work his way toward the front,
moving into the top five by pass-
ing Tony Kanaan on the hairpin
fifth turn where he managed
several passes a third of the
way through.

HUMBLE, Texas Hunter
Mahan doesnt dwell on bad
shots anymore, and he says
thats leading to more good
ones.
Mahan shot a 1-under 71 on
Sunday to win the Houston
Open, edging out Carl Petters-
son by one stroke and becom-
ing the first two-time cham-
pion on the tour in 2012.
The 29-year-old Mahan fin-
ished 16 under for the tourna-
ment and moved to No. 4 in
the world ranking, the first
time hes ever been the high-
est-ranked American.
Thats a pretty surreal thing
to think about, Mahan said.
It shows me what I can do,
shows me what Im capable
of.
The 29-year-old Mahan feels
as if he finally has the mental
approach to match his physical
skills. He credits Canadian
sports psychologist Jim Mur-
phy with teaching him to enjoy
the game more, and thats led
to better results.
Its easy to let your mind
run wild and get down on
yourself, Mahan said. Thats
what I used to do. Im trying to
pump myself up more and just
believe in myself.
Mahan earned his fifth ca-
reer victory. He has six top-25
finishes in seven starts this
year, including a victory over
Rory McIlroy in the final of the
Match Play Championships in
February.
Defending champion Phil
Mickelson (71), Keegan Bra-
dley (71), Brian Davis (74) and
Jeff Overton (68) all finished

Sun Young Yoo won the Kraft

18-foot birdie putt on the first
playoff hole Sunday, earning
her first major title after I.K.
Kim missed a 1-foot putt on the

Yoo won the LPGA Tours

Yoo, who earned her second
career LPGA Tour victory, and
Kim finished at 9 under, but
Kim could have all but wrapped
up her first major with the
tap-in par putt.
Kim might have struck the
ball oddly, and it toured the lip
of the cup before coming out on
the same side it entered. The
gallery gasped, and Kim raised
her left hand to her mouth in
disbelief.
I played straight, and it
actually just broke to the right,
even that short putt, said Kim,

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. His
left elbow swollen and wrapped,
Troy Tulowitzki felt confident
that hed be ready for opening
day.
He wasnt so certain on
whether or not former Colorado
teammate Ubaldo Jimenez de-
liberately drilled him, putting
the All-Star shortstops status in
jeopardy.
Jimenez nailed Tulowitzki
with the first pitch Sunday,
carrying their festering feud
onto the field and causing the
Indians and Rockies to clear the
benches during Clevelands 12-10
win.
You guys will have to talk to
him and see if it was intentional
or unintentional, Tulowitzki
said. I didnt expect anything
and the emotions took over. A
couple of words were exchanged
but nothing more than that.
Tulowitzki and Jimenez jawed
up close, with the plate umpire
and players on both sides hold-
ing them back from getting at
each other. Tulowitzki was tak-
en to a hospital for precaution-
ary X-rays on his elbow, which
were negative.
From my take, as soon as he
hit me it just seemed like he
wanted a little more. Thats
when the confrontation started,
Tulowitzki said. I definitely
wasnt happy about being hit. I
dont think you ever are ... so it
was back and forth. Not saying it
was just him or me.
Rockies manager Jim Tracy,
however, called it the most
gutless act Ive seen in 35 years
in the game, thats what I saw.

NEWYORKDennis Sei-
denberg and Patrice Bergeron
scored second-period goals, and
TimThomas made 33 saves for
the Boston Bruins, who
clinched the Northeast Division
title with a 2-1victory over the
NewYork Rangers on Sunday
night.
Boston also prevented the
Rangers fromwinning the At-
lantic Division and securing the
top seed in the Eastern Confer-
ence playoffs. NewYork needs
only one point in its final three
games to finish first.
Marian Gaborik scored his
40th goal of the season early in
the first period, but the Rangers
couldnt muster much else
against the defending Stanley
Cup champions, who also
locked up the No. 2 seed. Henrik
Lundqvist made19 saves for
NewYork, which leads Pitts-
burgh by five points.
The Rangers had won four in
a rowand six of seven. They
outshot the Bruins 19-3 in the
third period, but couldnt get
even.
The Bruins stormed back in
the second period, first with a
tying goal fromSeidenberg and
then the go-ahead tally by Ber-
geron. Boston, 7-1-1in its last
nine games, swept a weekend in
NewYork with victories over
the Islanders and Rangers on
back-to-back days.
Thomas, who got the day off
Saturday, is 5-1-1in his past
seven outings. He made the
most of the little bit of offensive
support provided by his team-
mates.
After Brad Richards lost con-
trol of the puck as he attempted
to carry it out of his own end,
the Bruins worked it back
around and set up Seidenberg
for a slap shot that beat Lundq-
vist, who appeared to be briefly
screened when players crossed
in front of him, at 4:00.
Seidenberg was a welcome
addition for the Bruins, who got
himback after a two-game in-
jury absence the only games
he has missed this season. Sei-
denberg has scored in consec-
utive games after going 26
straight without a goal. The
defenseman has five this season.
Bergeron got help fromthe
Rangers in netting his 22nd of
the season during a power play
with 8:08 left in the second.
NewYork defenseman Dan
Girardi had the puck in the
corner to the right of Lundqvist,
but had it knocked off his stick
by Tyler Seguin. He nudged it
over to Bergeron, who jammed a
shot in at the left post to make it
2-1.
The Rangers 25th-ranked
power play plagued themagain
as NewYork went 0 for 3 on the
advantage, including a two-man
edge for 22 seconds in the third
period when Boston took con-
secutive penalties for unsports-
manlike conduct and delay of
game.
NewYork thought its power
play was getting in shape after
the Rangers scored two man-
advantage goals in each of the
previous two games for the first
time this season.
Thomas had a scary moment
in the closing minutes when he
came far out to play the puck,
and fumbled it, but Derek Ste-
pan couldnt put a backhander
past himinto the vacated net.
Gaborik gave the Rangers a
1-0 lead just 4:33 in with no
assists fromhis teammates but a
big one fromBruins captain
Zdeno Chara. The 6-foot-9 de-
fenseman fired a shot fromthe
left point that struck teammate
Jordan Caron and knocked him
to the ice. Gaborik picked up the
loose puck and raced to the
other end on a breakaway. He
beat Thomas, who had skated
out above the crease, between
the pads. Gaborik excitedly
celebrated his milestone goal,
crouching to his knees and
pumping his arms.
Senators 5, Islanders1
UNIONDALE, N.Y. Kyle
Turris scored twice and had two
assists, Milan Michalek added
his team-leading 35th goal and
Ottawa beat NewYork to clinch
a playoff spot.
The Senators won their
fourth straight game to move
four points behind idle New
Jersey for sixth place in the
Eastern Conference. Both teams
have three games left before the
regular season ends Saturday.
The Senators, with 92 points,
are four ahead of eighth-place
Washington.
Nick Foligno and Sergei Gon-
char also scored for Ottawa.
Craig Anderson made 29 saves,
allowing only Mark Streits
first-period goal.
Wild 5, Blackhawks 4
CHICAGODevin Set-
oguchi and Erik Christensen
scored in a shootout to help
Minnesota beat Chicago for its
third straight victory.
Setoguchi had a goal and two
assists in regulation, then sealed
the victory in the third round of
the shootout with a quick shot
that beat Ray Emery.
Patrick Kane had the lone
Chicago goal in the shootout
against Josh Harding. Kane
scored his second goal in regu-
lation, during a power play with
2:45 left in the third period, to
tie it at 4.
Dany Heatley, Kyle Brodziak
and defenseman Clayton Stoner
also scored Minnesota, which
won in a shootout for the second
straight night. Patrick Sharp
and Viktor Stalberg scored for
Chicago.
The Blackhawks clinched a
playoff spot Saturday night.
Red Wings 2, Panthers1
DETROITJiri Hudler
scored with14:30 remaining in
the third period and again in a
shootout to help Detroit beat
Florida.
Pavel Datsyuk also scored in
the shootout for the Red Wings,
who held on to win when Kris
Versteeg missed high on Flor-
idas last attempt.
The Panthers did secure a
point to move three ahead of
second-place Washington in the
Southeast Division with three
games remaining. Florida leads
ninth-place Buffalo by five
points in the conference stand-
ings.
Oilers 2, Ducks1
ANAHEIM, Calif. Teemu
Hartikainen gave Edmonton an
early lead with his first two
goals of the season, Devan Dub-
nyk made 32 saves and the
Oilers beat Anaheimin the
Ducks final home game of the

OKLAHOMA CITY Rus-
sell Westbrook scored 27
points, Kevin Durant added 26
points and 10 rebounds and
the Oklahoma City Thunder
used a dominating third quar-
ter to beat Chicago 92-78 on
Sunday and move within a
game of the Bulls in the race
for the NBAs best record.
The Thunder (40-12) pulled
away by outscoring Chicago
31-12 in the third quarter, al-
lowing the Bulls to make only
five of their 21 shots.
Oklahoma City clinched a
playoff berth in the process,
with the help of tiebreakers
over the teams fighting for the
Western Conferences final
spot in the postseason.
The Bulls (42-12) played
without All-Star point guard
Derrick Rose for the 10th
straight game, falling to 14-6
this season without the reign-
ing MVP and 7-3 during his
current absence with a groin
injury.
Celtics 91, Heat 72
BOSTON Rajon Rondo
had a triple-double and the
Boston Celtics handed Miami
its biggest loss of the season,
pulling away for a win over the
Heat.
The Celtics outscored the
Heat 31-12 in the third quarter,
turning a 49-44 halftime lead
into an 80-56 advantage. They
stayed ahead by at least 19 the
rest of the way for their fifth
straight win.
Miamis last three losses
have been by at least 15 points
and its previous worst defeat
of the season came just one
week earlier in a 103-87 set-
back at Oklahoma City.
Rondo finished with 16
points, 14 assists and 11 re-
bounds, reaching the triple-
double mark with 8 1/2 min-
utes to play. It was his fifth
triple-double of the season.
The Celtics increased their
Atlantic Division lead to one
game over idle Philadelphia.
Nuggets 104, Magic 101
ORLANDO, Fla. Ty Law-
son scored 12 of his 25 points
in the second half and Arron
Afflalo added 22 points as the
Denver Nuggets beat the
short-handed Orlando Magic.
The Nuggets won back-to-
back games for the first time
since a four-game win streak
the first week of March. Al
Harrington added 18 points.
Jameer Nelson led Orlando
with 27 points, followed by
Ryan Anderson with 20 and
Glen Davis with 18. The Magic
played without center Dwight
Howard, who missed his first
game of the season with back
spasms.
The loss was Orlandos third
straight and only the second to
the Nuggets in 19 meetings at
home.
Howards absence was no-
ticeable throughout, with the
Nuggets scoring 44 points in
the paint and shooting a 56
percent for the night.
Raptors 99, Wizards 92
TORONTO Andrea Barg-
nani scored 18 points, Jose
Calderon and DeMar DeRozan
each had 15 and the Toronto
Raptors beat Washington,
their fifth straight home victo-
ry over the Wizards.
Amir Johnson scored 10
points and James Johnson,
Gary Forbes and Alan An-
derson each had nine for the
Raptors, who never trailed.
John Wall had 13 points and
11 assists and Kevin Seraphin
scored a career-high 16 points
for the Wizards, who were
trying to win back-to-back
games for the second time this
season. Washingtons only
two-game winning streak
came with victories at Detroit
on Feb. 12 and at Portland on
Feb. 14.
Jordan Crawford scored 18
points, Chris Singleton fouled
out with 15, Roger Mason Jr.
had 12 and Jan Veseley 10 for
the Wizards, who have lost 11
of 14.
Pacers 104, Rockets 102
HOUSTON Danny Gran-
ger scored 32 points, including
two free throws with 15.7
seconds left in overtime, and
the Indiana Pacers beat the
Houston Rockets.
The Pacers led by one when
Paul George turned the ball
over. Courtney Lee grabbed it
and looked to have tied the
ball up for Houston, but he
stumbled trying to wrestle it
away from the Pacers and was
called for traveling.
Grangers free throws came
next, before Chandler Parsons
made a layup on the other end
to again cut the lead to 1.
Darren Collison made the
first of two free throws with
10.5 seconds left and Granger
blocked a shot by Parsons at
the buzzer to give Indiana the
victory.

NATIONAL FORECAST: A storm system will trigger scattered showers and thunderstorms over the
southern Plains today. Some of these storms may be severe. Rain and snow will also fall over the cen-
tral and southern Rockies behind this system, as much colder air lters in. Meanwhile, a weak frontal
boundary will also produce a few isolated thunderstorms from the southern Appalachians into the
Carolinas.

O N T H E W E B
Dear Abby: Im a
woman in my early
30s. Since my early
20s nearly every guy
Ive had friendly con-
tact with has fallen in
love with me.
I was married
twice and hated it both times. I have
been single for a few years and love
it. I have mostly avoided men during
this time.
I started dating again about six
months ago and have been seeing a
man who is fantastic. He has hinted
at marriage, and Im terrified because
Im afraid that I will lose myself.
I enjoy my life the way it is, but Im
worried that eventually I will want
a partnership, and this would be the
man for me.
The idea of going to the next level
makes me want to end the relation-
ship. Im afraid I cant commit to this
man. How do I know if Im better off
single where things are good, or take
a chance on another marriage where
things may not turn out so well? Is
marriage for everyone?
Happily Single ... For Now
Dear Happily Single ... For Now:
Because of the number of Americans
who are divorced or living together
without marriage, I would have to say
no, marriage isnt for everyone. But
when you get it right and have built
a strong, loving, mutually respectful
partnership, nothing can beat it.
Have you learned from the failure
of your two marriages? If so, then you
have matured from the experience.
If youre planning to have children, it
is to their advantage to live in a two-
parent household.
If you truly feel you are happier be-
ing single, then single you should re-
main because there are no guarantees
that a marriage will be successful.
Marriage can only be as strong and
lasting as the couple entering into it
are determined it will be.
Dear Abby: Our daughter, Gabi,
is 15. Shes active and healthy, but
for the past few years she has been
putting on weight. Shes 5 foot 6,
weighs more than 160 pounds and
has a curvy, feminine body. My wife
will not encourage her to watch her
weight. Actually, shes supportive of
our daughters increasing size. She
told me, Gabi can gain up to 25 more
pounds and be a pretty plus-size.
My wife has always been thin. As
a teen she was late to develop her
figure. She keeps buying Gabi new
clothes as her weight goes up. The
styles are too tight, overly revealing
and draw attention to the rolls of fat.
Im not trying to force my daughter
into a models size, but I am con-
cerned about her health. This prob-
lem would be easier to manage now
than attempting to lose the weight in
the future. Please help me present the
importance of being proactive with
Gabi in this difficult time of maturity.
Caring, Supportive Dad
Dear Dad: The most qualified person
to do that would be your family phy-
sician, or Gabis pediatrician if she
has one. Its common knowledge that
there is an obesity epidemic in this
country, and if your daughter contin-
ues to pack on the pounds, she could
be at risk for health problems. Your
wife may be going to the opposite
extreme in trying not to make your
daughter self-conscious about her
weight. I agree with you that this is a
subject that is better addressed now
than later, so schedule a consultation.

Box 447, Mount Morris, IL 61054-0447.
(Postage is included.)
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Much
of the day will have a gentle,
peaceful tone in spite of, or per-
haps because of, your intensely
busy schedule. Youll go easily
from one task to the next.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Youll
win fans because you are very
patient. The thing that is so obvi-
ous to you is not apparent to
another person. You realize that
you have nothing to gain from
trying to rush others along.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
Someday, ATMs will recognize
you by scanning your face and
will deliver your financial wishes
accordingly. For now, theres
someone you know who may
serve a similar function.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Youll
feel driven to express a rather
unpopular opinion. Maybe its
because you feel responsible to
speak for those who cant speak
for themselves. It will go down
easier with a bit of humor.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Its becom-
ing increasingly challenging to
keep yourself entertained. Plan
an adventure. Giving yourself
something to look forward to will
help you have the patience to do
whats necessary now.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You
have something nice to say.
Chances are, the one you want
to praise has heard it a million
times. Youll find a creative way
to phrase your kind words and
will make a stellar impression.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). People
who dont give you a normal
amount of feedback will deplete
your energy. Youll soon get
tired of trying so hard to get a
reaction. Theres no joy in it.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Part
of what makes you such a
good friend is that you are usu-
ally paying attention, as today
proves. Youll be attuned to the
changes in a loved ones atti-
tude, and youll check in to make
sure all is well.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
Youre an excellent reader of
peoples vibes today. You
sense correctly what makes oth-
ers happy or unhappy, and you
deliver accordingly. If youre in
sales, youll make a killing.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
Youll find benefit in the advice
of your signmate the late great
director Milton Katselas: When
you want to blame, praise
instead. Instead of holding a
grudge, send a creampuff.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
Being charming is not the same
thing as being a people pleaser.
Youll win people over with your
style, but youre far too busy to
pander to their every need.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Your
passionate nature emerges. If
you can describe the emotions
running through you now, youll
gain a greater sense of control
over them. Naming your feelings
will help you tame your feelings.
