Juvie placement stats weighed in wake of scandal
JENNIFER LEARN-ANDES
jandes@timesleader.com
luzerne county children
and Youth director frank
castano tracks juvenile delin-
quency placements through
the number of different people
sent to outside detention and
treatment facilities each year,
and he told county ofcials
that number is increasing.
county Probation Services
director Michael Vecchio
monitors the situation a differ-
ent way, through the number
of juveniles in outside place-
ment day to day, and that has
remained the same around
50 for four years straight.
The subject is of particular
interest here because the coun-
ty made national headlines
during the corruption probe
for the abnormally high num-
ber of juvenile offenders sent
to outside facilities, including
a Pittston Township center
that nancially beneted for-
mer judges Mark ciavarella
and Michael conahan. both
men are in federal prison.
out-of-home juvenile place-
ments declined after other
judges took over family court
matters in 2008.
castano is involved in the
statistics because his depart-
ment scrutinizes and pays the
bills for outside lodging and
treatment, though the court
controls juvenile sentencing.
He gave county council sta-
tistics last week showing 204
juveniles were placed in out-
side detention or treatment
facilities in 2011-12, more
than double the 87 juveniles in
the previous scal year.
forty-two juveniles were
sent to group homes in 2011-
12 an increase of 13 from
the prior year, castanos sta-
tistics show.
castano said he has not
received complete data to
report gures from 2012-13.
We are placing more kids
in institutional placements
because of the community
need, castano said during
last weeks council budget
work session.
Vecchio said he gauges juve-
nile placement activity by
tracking the caseloads under
his ofces supervision at one
time. This statistic is more
relevant to his ofce because
juveniles continually enter
and leave placement.
The number of juvenile
offenders has hovered around
50 for four years, he said.
That has not changed. The
numbers are staying pretty
even, Vecchio said.
Placements cost $4.1M
castanos report said out-
side juvenile placements were
budgeted at $3.7 million in in
2011/12, and the county ended
up spending $4.1 million.
The county spent $3.2
million on placements
from july 1, 2012, through
March 31, said castano,
noting he has not received

When john graduated
from the luzerne county
drug court program last
year, he was excited to
start a new life. Having
completed the require-
ments of the program
staying clean and sober
and being reunited with
his family he was will-
ing to work to make his
dreams reality.
What he had not antici-
pated was the difculty he
would have in obtaining
employment. checking
the box on the application
that asked do you have a
criminal record? some-
times meant extensive
questioning during an
interview. often it meant
he did not get an inter-
view at all.
Grace franks, treat-
ment coordinator for
the luzerne county
correctional facility, is
aware of the challenge of
employment in the lives
of those in the criminal
justice system, has coor-
dinated the countys rst
job fair directed to those
passing through the sys-
tem by putting them in
touch with employers
who would consider hir-
ing them.
The job fair to be
held on aug. 13 at the
Emergency Management
building, Water Street,
will have two sessions:
from 9:30 to noon, and
from 4 to 6 p.m.
it is open to all par-
ticipants of the Work

Despite outcry, stand-ground law repeals unlikely
At least 22
states, including
Pennsylvania, have
some form of the law
CURT ANDERSON
AP Legal Afairs Writer
MiaMi despite an outcry from
civil rights groups, a call for close exam-
ination by President barack obama and
even a 1960s-style sit-in at the florida
governors ofce, the jurys verdict that
George Zimmerman was justied in
shooting unarmed teenager Trayvon
Martin is unlikely to spur change to any
of the nations stand-your-ground self-
defense laws.
i support stand your ground,
republican arizona Gov. jan brewer
said last week.
i do not see any reason to change it,
said Georgia Gov. nathan deal, also a
republican.
at least 22 states have laws similar to
that in florida, according to the national
conference of State legislatures. Many
are conservative and lean toward
laws that defend gun owners rights.

Island house storms legacy
Small structure was left
by fooding in 2011
JON OCONNELL
joconnell@timesleader.com
EXETEr Swollen with summer
vegetation, the Susquehanna river
islands grow dense and dark in the mid-
july humidity. but a smear on one of the
islands makes it stand out among the
others.
almost everyone knows about that
island with a house stuck on it.
a tree stump speared the structure
and snagged it on Wintermoot island
when ooding from back-to-back tropi-
cal storms irene and lee hit the area
2011.
Wintermoot is made of three islands
that nearly touch each other and sits
about a half mile up-river from the 8th
Street bridge from which you can
see it clearly. The island is private prop-
erty owned by partners joseph P. Vullo
of dupont and Sonny lori of Pittston
Township.
federal funds set aside for post-storm
island cleanup have dried up, according
to state department of Environmental
Protection spokeswoman colleen
connolly.
Several island owners got help from
the department to clean up hazardous
waste after the 2011 ooding, but Vullo
and lori denied agents access to their
island for inspection, connolly said.
from owners standpoint, they dont
think the junk that washed up on their
island threatens the environment.
The island crosses Exeter, jenkins
Township and Pittston borders, all com-
munities with private property mainte-
nance laws.
No municipal involvement
for a municipality to intercede in get-
ting the place cleaned up, the process
would start with contacting a state legis-
lator, said jenkins Township Supervisor
Stanley rovinski. Municipalities have
to be careful with private property;
a mans land is castle, rovinski said.

Toyota sudden acceleration
case set to begin in Calif.
GREG RISLING
Associated Press
LOS ANGELES Noriko Uno was
afraid of driving fast, often avoiding the
freeway and taking the same route every
day fromher Upland home to and fromher
familys sushi restaurant. She had put only
10,000 miles on her 2006 Camry in about
four years.
So when her car unexpectedly acceler-
ated to speeds up to 100 mph on a street
with a posted limit of 30, the 66-year-old
bookkeeper did everything she could to
slow down, stepping on the brake pedal
and pulling the emergency brake handle as
she swerved to avoid other vehicles.
Uno was killed when her car went onto
a median and struck a telephone pole and
a tree.
Hers is the rst so-called bellwether
case to go to trial that could determine
whether Toyota Motor Corp. should be
held liable for sudden unintended accel-
eration in its vehicles a claim made by
motorists that plagued the Japanese auto-
maker and led to lawsuits, settlements and
recalls of millions of its cars and SUVs.
Toyota decided to make safety an
option instead of a standard on their vehi-
cles, said attorney Garo Mardirossian,
who is representing Unos husband and
son. They decided to save a few bucks,
and by doing so, it cost lives.
Toyota has said there was no defect in
Unos Camry. The automaker has blamed
such crashes on accelerators that got stuck,
oor mats that trapped the gas pedal and
driver error. The company has settled
some wrongful death cases and agreed to
pay more than $1 billion to resolve law-
suits where owners said the value of their
vehicles plummeted after Toyotas recalls
because of sudden-acceleration concerns.
The Uno trial, starting with jury selec-
tion today, is expected to last two months.
The proceeding represents the rst of the
bellwether cases in state courts, which are
chosen by a judge to help predict the poten-
tial outcome of other lawsuits making simi-
lar claims.
Other cases expected to go to trial
in state courts this year include one in
Oklahoma and another in Michigan. There
are more than 80 similar cases led in state
courts.
The Toyota litigation has gone on paral-
lel tracks in state and federal court, with
both sides agreeing to settlements so far.
A federal judge in Orange County is deal-
ing with wrongful death and economic loss
lawsuits that have been consolidated. Hes
expected to give nal approval to the eco-
nomic loss settlement next week.
Federal lawsuits contend that Toyotas
electronic throttle control system was
defective and caused vehicles to surge
unexpectedly. Plaintiffs attorneys have
deposed Toyota employees, reviewed soft-
ware code and pored over thousands of
documents.
Toyota has denied the allegation and nei-
ther the National Highway Trafc Safety
Administration nor NASA found evidence
of electronic problems. A trial in one of the
lead cases is scheduled for November.
The Uno trial will likely focus on why
Toyota didnt have a mechanism to over-
ride the accelerator if the gas and brake
pedals are pressed simultaneously in
Camrys sold in the U.S. The automaker put
the brake override system in its European
eet, Mardirossian said.
Toyota said Unos vehicle was equipped
with a state-of-the-art braking system
and denied that any defect played a role in
her death.
We are condent the evidence will
show that a brake override system would
not have prevented this accident and that
there was no defect in Mrs. Unos vehicle,
the automaker said in a statement about
the upcoming trial.
Legal observers said Unos attorneys
wont necessarily have to prove what was
wrong with the vehicle, but show that the
accident could have been prevented with a
brake override system.
If the plaintiff succeeds in convincing
a jury it wasnt human error, that it was
attributed to the car, I think they have a
strong case, said Gregory Keating, a law
professor at the University of Southern
California. Jurors, as drivers, are likely
to believe strongly that cars shouldnt
become uncontrollable in this way.
The Allentown Morning Call
Joshua Pereiras fam-
ily said they can only
guess that the 25-year-
old Easton man went
for a swim in search of
relief from the stiing
heat before his body was
found Saturday morning
in the Lehigh River.
A father of two young
children, Pereira was
a free spirit who loved
playing piano, drawing
and working with his
hands, his uncle Jeffrey
Hayden said.
He loved his children
more than life itself,
Hayden said.
The Northampton
County coroners ofce
said Pereiras body was
found by a boater about
7:30 a.m. Saturday in
the Lehigh River near
the boat launch off Larry
Holmes Drive in Easton.
Deputy Coroner Kelly
Gillis said an autopsy
was performed Saturday,
but the cause of death
has not been announced
while the coroners ofce
awaits the results of
additional testing.
While Pereira had
struggled with mental
illness, Hayden said his
nephew was making
strides in treatment.
He was doing much
better than a year or two
ago, said Hayden, of
Germantown, Ohio.
In March 2012,
Northampton County
Judge Leonard Zito sen-
tenced Pereira to six
months in county jail and
a year of probation for
reckless endangerment.
In November 2011,
Pereira was alone with
his children, then 2 and
4, when he called 911
just after midnight.
When police arrived, he
told ofcers he had taken
PCP, a powerful hallu-
cinogen, according to
court records.
The children were
found in a bedroom,
but Pereira could not
provide their names,
their ages or tell police
how to contact their
mother, records said.
Hayden said Pereira
was living in the 800
block of Ferry Street with
his girlfriend, Joanna
Diaz, the mother of his
children. His sisters
Amanda and Natashia
Pereira said he had vis-
ited them in New Jersey
a week before his death.
Their parents, Tony and
Evelyn, also live in New
Jersey.
Hayden, a contractor,
said Pereira lived and
worked with him for
several years and dis-
covered an affinity for
construction work, but
was unemployed when
he died.
He was a good kid,
Hayden said.

IN BRIEF
Recruiter eyed for fnding purchasing chief
Luzerne County Manager
Robert Lawton told council
last week he is seriously con-
sidering retaining a profes-
sional recruiter to round up
applicants for a purchasing/
procurement director posi-
tion and possibly
other vacant
top manage-
ment posts.
Its been
extremely dif-
cult in some
of these posi-
tions to raise
a real pool of
highly quali-
ed, enthusias-
tic candidates,
he said.
The coun-
ty has been
accepting applications for
the purchasing position since
prior director Frank Pugliese
obtained a school district job
in October.
We have advertised and
re-advertised nationally,
Lawton said, noting a recruit-
er may attract candidates who
are successful in their current
positions and not responding
to job advertisements.
He said 65 percent of the
county budget is spent on pay
and benets.
All the rest of it, we buy
stuff. And so its critical to
have a skilled, talented pro-
curement agent, somebody
who is familiar with govern-
ment operations and some-
body who has a highest level
of integrity and loyalty to this
institution a real self-start-
er, he said.
The purchasing direc-
tor position is advertised at
$40,000 to $50,000.
The county has several
other positions advertised on
the career opportunities sec-
tion of the county website,
www.luzernecounty.org: 911
executive director, $60,000;
human services division head,
$70,000-$85,000; budget
and nancial services divi-
sion head, $75,000-$90,000;
and chief engineer, $56,000-
$84,000.
Lawton said he has asked
Administrative Services
Division Head David Parsnik
to explore revamping the
county website to make it
more user-friendly and rel-
evant to people seeking infor-
mation and services outside
business hours.
Councilman Stephen J.
Urban raised the subject last
week, saying the website
should be enhanced to allow
more self-service for citizens.
Councilman Rick
Williams said he has asked
Chief County Solicitor C.
David Pedri to research the
addition of language prohib-
iting discrimination based on
gender identity and sexual
orientation to county ordi-
nances and policies.
Ill await the solicitors
thoughts on that so it can be
done as thoughtfully and ef-
ciently as we can, Williams
said at last weeks council pub-
lic hearing on the proposed
capital budget and long-term
plan.
County Council will
meet at 6 p.m. Tuesday in the
council meeting room at the
courthouse in Wilkes-Barre.
No executive session is listed,
so the meeting should start at
that time.
Lawton is slated to pres-
ent a proposal consolidating
banking services during
Tuesdays meeting.
The countys home rule
charter called for a reduction
in the countys roughly 70

administration sought propos-
als as part of its plan to retain
one banking institution.
The meeting agenda is
posted on the council section

Communication with
court branches is getting bet-
ter, but theres still room for
improvement, Lawton told
council last week.
In terms of cooperation
and seeing that were all part
of the system, they have a
long way to go, Lawton said.
He said the bench exists to
service people.
They are part of the sys-
tem. They are not the feu-
dal overlords that we might
once have tolerated, he said.

HAZLE TWP. When Joe
May returned from active duty
in 2005, he wanted to nd a
way to continue service.
As a counselor licensed
to work with post traumatic
stress disorder patients, the
Army veteran who served
in Iraq now runs a Mobile
Veterans Center for the
Veterans Administration tend-
ing to veterans needs.
On a sunny Tuesday morn-
ing, May along with PTSD
counselor Steve Davis, who is
also an Iraqi War veteran
parked the 38-foot Winnebago
equipped with three private
counseling spaces, which can
double as a command center
in emergencies, at the Laurel
Mall.
May said that day he would
probably see four or ve vet-
erans who schedule monthly
counseling sessions with him.
For the most part, the two
answered questions about vet-
erans benets and answered
inquiries with what May
called a warm hand-off.
Giving somebody a 1-800
number is pretty impersonal,
May said, and added that by
getting them directly in touch
with the right ofcials, they
can expedite vets cases.
Patrick Dignazio, a Navy
veteran who served from 1985
to 1987, stopped by to see
about disability benets from
the VA.
He brought with him a
letter from Social Security
Administration denying his
disability claim and hoped to
get some answers.
He said he had been work-
ing with someone in U.S. Rep.
Lou Barlettas ofce to le
a claim with the VA, but the
man retired, and Dignazio
didnt know where to go next.
May said that unfortunately
many veterans have a similar
story. They work with county,
state or federal ofcials who
move on in their careers or
retire and the veterans have
to start from square one.
May said that during regular
stops when the RV shows up
in different parking lots in the
states eastern region, most of
the questions he and others
answer have to do with claims
and take only a few moments.
However, he said that without
the RV parking close to home,
many of the veterans may
never get the direction they
need.
Out of 70 federally funded
Mobile Veterans Centers in
the country, May said his unit
is one of the busiest because
Luzerne County has a robust
veteran population.
State Rep. Tarah Toohil,
R-Butler Township, pushed
for the RV in Hazleton and
said, though it was a struggle
at rst, theyve been active for
more than one year.
Our veterans have sacri-
ced so much for us. I strive
to bring them as many ser-
vices and as much help as I
can, Toohil said in an email.
We make the VA and vets bus
more accessible to southern
Luzerne County by bringing
these services to the vets.

NewCandys Place director has special connection to clients
BILL OBOYLE
boboyle@timesleader.com
FORTY FORT A new
director with a unique per-
spective Chris Ostroski , a
breast cancer survivor can
relate to the clients at Candys
Place and help them cope with
their diagnoses.
Ostroski took the reins at
the resource center for can-
cer patients and their families
in May and she has settled
in comfortably with her new
position and responsibilities.
I know what people with
cancer diagnoses go through,
Ostroski said. I know the
emotional, physical and men-
tal challenges.
Ostroski, 44, was diagnosed
with breast cancer four years
ago and she said she imme-
diately researched every-
thing to self-educate herself
about her condition. She said
because of her research and
her rst-hand experience, she
can help clients at Candys
Place.
Candys Place was founded
in 1998 in memory of Candice
Vincent-Mamary. Penny
Vincent Cunningham, Candys
sister, founded the organiza-
tion to help others with cancer.
Before she died, Candy told
Penny that she wanted some-
thing good to come out of her
disease.
Penny kept her promise and
from its humble beginnings
around Pennys kitchen table,
the organization has grown
to its new 4,000 square foot
home, offering many programs
and services for patients.
Cunningham said hun-
dreds of patients, survivors,
caregivers, widows and wid-
owers, and loved ones have
participated and beneted
from the services offered at
Candys Place. She said medi-
cal advances have been made
in the treatment of cancer, but
little emphasis has been placed
on the recovery and re-heal-
ing of cancers physical and
emotional aspects, and most
importantly, the quality of life
issues before, during and after
cancer treatment.
Thats why Cunningham
feels Ostroskis perspective
and experience will aid her
greatly in her job.
Who better is able to relate
than one cancer patient to
another, Cunningham said.
And Chris was willing to
share her experience. That
helps our patients with their
attitude toward recovery.
Cunningham said Candys
Place doesnt receive state or
federal funds and it is not a
United Way member agency.
The organization applies for
community, county, state and
private grants, but most of its
funding comes from individ-
ual and corporate donations,
and from several annual fun-
draising events that are held
throughout the year.
Ostroski said Candys Place
offer educational classes and
peer group sessions, as well as
exercise classes, yoga, medi-
tation and personal training.
All services are free to cancer
patients and are open to the
general public for $35 per
month or $7 per class.
She said a woman came to
Candys Place recently who
was having a difcult time
coping with the loss of her hair
and other complications.
She had a double mastec-
tomy, Ostroski said. We
talked for two hours and we
bonded. We tried on wigs and
we shared experiences.
She said she understands
how patients think about their
condition constantly.
You think about it every
single day, she said. You
have to deal with it and learn
to cope and live your life.

WASHINGTON Three
years after campaigning
on a vow to repeal and
replace President Barack
Obamas health care law,
House Republicans have yet
to advance an alternative for
the system they have voted
more than three dozen times
to abolish in whole or in part.
Ofcially, the effort is in
progress and has been
since Jan. 19, 2011, according
to GOP.gov, a leadership-run
website.
But internal divisions, dis-
agreement about political
tactics and Obamas 2012 re-
election add up to uncertainty
over whether Republicans will
vote on a plan of their own
before the 2014 elections, or
if not by then, perhaps before
the president leaves ofce,
more than six years after the
original promise.
Sixteenmonths before those
elections, some Republicans
cite no need to offer an alter-
native. I dont think its a
matter of what we put on the
oor right now, said Rep.
Greg Walden of Oregon, who
heads the partys campaign
committee. He added that
what is important is trying
to delay Obamacare.
Rep. Fred Upton of
Michigan, who leads a com-
mittee with jurisdiction
over health care, said, If we
are successful in ultimately
repealing this legislation, then
yes, we will have a replace-
ment bill ready to come back
with.
Divisions were evident ear-
lier this year, when legislation
to make it easier for high-risk
individuals to purchase cov-
erage died without a vote. It
was sidetracked after conser-
vatives, many of them elected
with tea party support, object-
ed to any attempt to improve
the current law rather than
scuttle it.
With the rank and le grow-
ing more conservative, some
Republicans acknowledge that
without changes, they likely
couldnt pass the alternative
measure they backed when
Democrats won approval for
Obamas bill in 2010. Among
other provisions, it encour-
aged employers to sign up
their workers for health insur-
ance automatically, so that
employees would have to opt
out of coverage if they didnt
want it, and provided federal
money for state-run high-risk
pools for individuals and for
reinsurance in the small group
market.
The current state of inten-
tions contrasts sharply with
the Pledge to America, the
manifesto that Republicans
campaigned on in 2010 when
they took power away from
the Democrats. That included
a plan to repeal and replace
what it termed a government
takeover of health care.
It promised common-
sense solutions focused on
lowering costs and protect-
ing American jobs, includ-
ing steps to overhaul medical
malpractice laws and permit
the sale of insurance across
state lines. Republicans said
they would empower small
businesses with greater pur-
chasing power and create new
incentives to save for future
health care needs. They
promised to protect the
doctor-patient relationship,
and ensure that those with
pre-existing conditions gain
access to the coverage they
need.

At least 20 civilians
killed in Syria
Government troops red mortar
rounds that slammed into a main market
in a town in northern Syria on Sunday,
killing at least 20 civilians, activist
groups said.
The mortar shells struck the town of
Ariha, which is held mostly by opposi-
tion ghters, a few hours ahead of iftar,
the meal that breaks the dawn-to-dusk
fast during the Muslim holy month
of Ramadan. The U.K.-based Syrian
Observatory for Human Rights and the
Local Coordination Committees, two
opposition groups tracking the violence
in Syria, said at least 20 people were
killed including two children and two
women. It was not immediately clear
what triggered the shelling.
tEHRAN, IRAN
Cautioned urged in
dealing with the US
Irans top leader said Sunday he has
not prohibited talks with the U.S. but
urged caution with any possible dia-
logue, describing the American gov-
ernment as untrustworthy.
The U.S. and Iran are in deep dis-
agreement over Tehrans nuclear pro-
gram. The U.S. and the West have
imposed punishing economic sanc-
tions to press Iran to stop enrichment
of uranium, fearing that the process
could lead to production of nuclear
weapons. Iran denies that intention.

Ohio chief
says more
bodies could
be found
EAST CLEVELAND, Ohio
Searchers rummaging through
vacant houses in a neighbor-
hood where three female bod-
ies were found wrapped in plas-
tic bags should be prepared to
nd one or two more victims, a
police chief said Sunday.
Police Chief Ralph Spotts
told the volunteers to brace
themselves for the smell of rot-
ting bodies and to look out for
trash bags that might conceal a
body. He declined to elaborate
on his comments about the pos-
sible additional victims.
When asked about Spotts
remark, East Cleveland Mayor
Gary Norton said authorities
have lots of reasons to sus-
pect there are more victims,
but he refused to say why.
A 35-year-old registered sex
offender in custody is a sus-
pect in the deaths, Norton said.
The suspect, who was arrested
Friday after a police standoff,
has indicated he might have
been inuenced by Cleveland
serial killer Anthony Sowell,
who was convicted in 2011
of killing 11 women and sen-
tenced to death, Norton said.
He said some things that led
us to believe that in some way,
shape, or form, Sowell might
be an inuence, Norton told
The Associated Press.
The man hasnt been charged.
A report of a foul odor ema-
nating from a home led police
to the discovery of the rst
body, found in a garage, and to
the suspect. Two other bodies
were found Saturday one in
a backyard and the other in the
basement of a vacant house.
The bodies, all female, were
found about 100 to 200 yards
apart, and authorities say the
victims were killed in the last
six to 10 days.
The police, FBI, the
Ohio Bureau of Criminal
Investigation and the Cuyahoga
County Sheriff s Department
went through yards and aban-
doned houses over about three
blocks Saturday and used dogs
trained to nd cadavers.
The neighborhood in East
Cleveland, which has some
17,000 residents, has many
abandoned houses and authori-
ties want to be thorough, the
mayor said.
Its the third recent high-pro-
le case in the Cleveland area
that involves missing women.
In May, three women who
separately vanished a decade
ago were found captive in a
run-down house. Ariel Castro,
a former school bus driver, has
pleaded not guilty to nearly
1,000 counts of kidnap, rape
and other crimes.
In 2009, Sowell was arrested
after a woman escaped from
his house and said she had
been raped there. Police found
the mostly nude bodies of 11
women in garbage bags and
plastic sheets throughout the
home.
Prosecutors described him
inHe was found guilty in 2011
and sentenced to death.

LARAJAKES
AP National Security Writer
JOINT BASE CHARLESTON, S.C.
The audience gasped in surprise
and gave a few low whistles as Defense
Secretary Chuck Hagel delivered the
news that furloughs, which have forced
a 20 percent pay cut on most of the
militarys civilian workforce, probably
will continue next year, and it might
get worse.
Those are the facts of life, Hagel
told about 300 Defense Department
employees, most of them middle-aged
civilians, last week at an Air Force
reception hall on a military base in
Charleston.
Future layoffs also are possible for the
departments civilian workforce of more
than 800,000 employees, Hagel said, if
Congress fails to stem the cuts in the
next budget year, which starts Oct. 1.
On the heels of the departments rst
furlough day, and in three days of visits
with members of the Army, Navy, Air
Force and Marine Corps, Hagel played
the unenviable role of messenger to a
frustrated and fearful workforce cop-
ing with the inevitability of a spend-
ing squeeze at the end of more than a
decade of constant and costly war.
The scal crunch also lays bare the
politically unpopular, if perhaps neces-
sary, need to bring runaway military
costs in line with most of the rest of the
American public that has struggled eco-
nomically for years.
Everybodys bracing for the impact,
Army Master Sgt. Trey Corrales said
after Hagel spoke with soldiers during
a quick stop at Fort Bragg, N.C.
The effects of the economy have
started to hit the military, Corrales
said. It was late in coming to us.
The furloughs have hit about 650,000
civilian employees but also have slowed
health care and other services for the
uniformed military, which has stopped
some training missions and faces
equipment shortages due to the budget
shortfalls. Troops were told this month
they will no longer receive extra pay
for deployments to 18 former global
hot spots no longer considered danger
zones.
Troops already are facing force
reductions, and the Army alone has
announced plans to trim its ranks by
80,000 over the next ve years.
Ofcials agree that the military has
undergone cycles of expanding and
shrinking of the force over genera-
tions. Hagel said this time is different,
and worse, however, because of what
he described as a very dark cloud of
uncertainty hanging over the Pentagon
as Congress considers whether to
reverse $52 billion in spending cuts
that are set to go into effect in 2014.
At the Naval Air Station in
Jacksonville, Fla., Hagel told an esti-
mated 100 civilians gathered in a bus-
tling jet maintenance hangar that the
military had not been prepared for the
$37 billion in cuts that took effect this
year, forcing the furloughs.
While he said he was deeply sorry for
the strain the crunch has put on fami-
lies, he said he would not slash troops
training or other readiness budgets any
further to prevent huge gaps in national
security.
Im sure you realize how disruptive
the furlough is to our productivity. So
Im hoping that were not going to do
it again next year, Elizabeth Nealin, a
research and engineering manager at
the navy bases eet readiness center,
told Hagel.
Have you planned for a reduction in
force? Nealin asked bluntly.
Hagel said if the $52 billion cut
remains in place, there will be further
cuts in personnel, make no mistake
about that.

Pentagon chief cant ofer hope on cuts
NY sex criminals sue Pataki over psych transfers
NEW YORK The convicted rapist
formerly known as Louis Massei wore
pink clam diggers and shoulder-length
hair parted on the side for a star turn
on the witness stand last week in a
Manhattan courtroom.
The transgender witness, who now
goes by the name Lisa, was there to
describe what it was like to be invol-
untarily placed in a psychiatric facility
for mentally ill offenders.
My roommate was a person who
fed his girlfriend to homeless people,
Massei told the jury. You cant run,
you cant ght. Someone has decided
this is where you belong.
Massei, 52, is among six ex-cons
who have sued former Gov. George
Pataki and other state ofcials for
tens of millions of dollars. The lawsuit
accuses the state of abusing its author-
ity eight years ago by transferring the
plaintiffs to psychiatric facilities at the
end of their prison terms in effect,
summarily extending their sentences
without recourse. None of the plain-
tiffs is still in mental health institu-
tions.
Pataki is expected to testify early
this week at a civil trial thats a study
in societys struggle to protect the
public from violent predators while
preserving the legal rights of those
same offenders.
Abbe Lowell, Patakis lawyer, said
in opening statements that Pataki
knew in 2005 that 16 other states had
addressed the problem of sexually
violent predators being released after
their prison terms by involuntary civil
commitments to psychiatric institu-
tions.
About 20 states now allow certain
sex offenders to be detained at psychi-
atric facilities after their sentences are
served if they have a mental disorder
that would make them more likely to
offend again. For several years, Pataki
had tried to get state legislators to
address the issue unsuccessfully.
After a newly paroled rapist killed
a woman in 2005 in a suburban mall
parking lot, Patakis solution was to
use existing laws to direct prison of-
cials to have the worst sex offenders
evaluated for involuntary civil com-
mitment once released from prison.
The practice was halted in late 2006
after a state court found that the 12
men who were committed should have
been entitled to hearings before it
happened, but some of the prisoners
remained in psychiatric institutions
years afterward.
I represent six convicted sex
offenders, plaintiffs attorney Reza
Rezvani said in opening statements
this month. Never for one second
will you hear me defend what theyve
done. What you will hear me defend is
the Constitution of the United States
of America, that Constitution that
gives us the right before our govern-
ment locks us up the right to have a
chance to be heard.
Barbara Hathaway, a lawyer for the
state, argued that the plaintiffs ended
up getting the treatment they needed,
calling it a case of no harm, no foul.
Under the program, 800 people were
evaluated and 127 were committed,
she added.
This was not a rubber stamp, she
said. Doctors were using their profes-
sional judgment.

Blue-collar workers
poured into the cavernous
auto plants of Detroit for
generations, condent that
a sturdy back and strong
work ethic would bring
them a house, a car and
economic security. It was a
place where the American
dream came true.
It came true in cit-
ies across the industrial
heartland, from Chicagos
meatpacking plants to the
re-belching steel mills of
Cleveland and Pittsburgh.
It came true for decades,
as manufacturing brought
prosperity to big cities in
states around the Great
Lakes and those who called
them home. Detroit was
the afuent capital, a city
with its own emblematic
musical sound and a sto-
ried union movement that
drew Democratic presiden-
tial candidates to Cadillac
Square every four years
to kick off campaigns at
Labor Day rallies.
The good times would
not last forever. As the
nations economy began
to shift from the business
of making things, that line
of work met the force of
foreign competition. Good-
paying assembly line jobs
dried up as factories that
made the cars and sup-
plied the steel closed their
doors. The survivors of the
decline, especially whites,
ed the cities to pursue
new dreams in the suburbs.
The Arsenal of
Democracy that supplied
the Allied victory of World
War II and evolved into
the Motor City fell into a
six-decade downward spi-
ral of job losses, shrinking
population and a plummet-
ing tax base. Detroits sin-
gular reliance on an auto
industry that stumbled
badly and its long history
of racial strife proved a
disastrous combination,
and ultimately too much to
overcome.
Detroit is an extreme
case of problems that have
aficted every major old
industrial city in the U.S.,
said Thomas Sugrue, author
of The Origins of the Urban
Crisis: Race and Inequality
in Postwar Detroit and
a history professor at the
University of Pennsylvania.
Its been 60-plus years
of steady disinvestment,
depopulation and an inten-
sive hostility between the
city, the suburbs and the
rest of the state.
All of the nations
industrial cities fell, but
only Detroit hit bottom.
Staggering under as much
as $20 billion in unpaid
bills, Detroit surrendered
Thursday, ling the single
largest municipal bank-
ruptcy in American history.
What happened in
Detroit is not particularly
distinct, said Kevin Boyle,
a history professor at
Northwestern University
who has written exten-
sively about his hometown.
Most Midwest cities had
white ight and segrega-
tion. But Detroit had it
more intensely. Most cit-
ies had deindustrializa-
tion. Detroit had it more
intensely.
Detroits rst wave of
prosperity came after
World War I and lasted into
the early 1920s, driven by
the rise of the auto indus-
try. It was the Silicon
Valley of America, Boyle
said. It was home to the
most innovative, cutting-
edge dominant industry
in the world. The money
there at that point was just
staggering.
More afuence followed
in the late 1940s and early
1950s as the auto industry
was booming. Tens of thou-
sands of blacks migrated
from the South seeking
jobs on the assembly line
and a foothold in the mid-
dle class. In 1950, Detroits
population peaked as a
metropolis of more than
1.8 million, making it the
nations fth-largest city.
The transformation was
dramatic.
Youve got a vast city
of working people who no
longer have insecure lives,
people with high school
and less than high school
degrees who can earn
enough to buy a house,
a car, a boat, and sent
their kids to Wayne State
University, Boyle said.
But by that time,
Detroits decline had
already begun.
The auto industry had
started to expand beyond
the city and was build-
ing plants and putting
ofces in suburban and
rural areas, and eventu-
ally sought refuge from
the citys powerful unions
in the nations Sunbelt
states and even overseas.
Between 1947 and 1963,
Detroit lost 140,000 manu-
facturing jobs, said Sugrue,
the Pennsylvania professor.
A decade later, as
Japanese auto imports
started gobbling more
of the U.S. market, the
hemorrhaging of jobs con-
tinued. Membership in
the United Auto Workers
topped out at 1.5 million in
1978 and stands today at
about 400,000, said Mike
Smith, the unions archivist
at Wayne State Universitys
Walter Reuther Library.
In a way, its not unlike
a small town that has a tex-
tile factory for 50 years,
then all of a sudden it clos-
es up and the whole town
is decimated, Smith said.
It wasnt an uncommon
plight: The cities that rose
alongside Detroit came to
be known as the Rust Belt.
Like Detroit, Pittsburgh
was a community dened
by its dependence on a sin-
gle industry. But as steel-
making crumbled under
pressure from foreign
imports and the decline of
the U.S. auto industry, the
citys population dropped
by more than 40 percent
between 1970 and 2006,
according to a 2013 report
from the U.S. Federal
Reserve Bank of Cleveland.
But during those years,
Pittsburgh also forged a
new identity around health
care and technology. It
retrained former steel-
workers, invested heav-
ily in higher education and
launched a controversial
campaign to redevelop
more than 1,000 acres of
industrial brownelds,
replacing decaying lots
with luxury homes, ofce
and retail buildings, and 27
miles of riverfront parks.
Detroits unraveling
cant be blamed solely on
the citys reliance on one
industry that itself buckled.
Some point to the citys
political leadership and its
reluctance over the years to
make tough decisions.
I think it (the scal
disaster) was inevitable
because the politicians in
Detroit were always knock-
ing the can forward, not
confronting the issues,
buying off public employ-
ees by increasing their pen-
sions, said Daniel Okrent,
a Detroit native who wrote
a Time magazine cover
story on the city in 2009.
They were always kind of
confronting the impending
crisis by trying to make it
the next guys crisis.
Racial strife also infect-
ed the city. Sugrue, the
Pennsylvania professor,
said some of the ten-
sions surfaced long before
the citys infamous 1967
riots. Two decades earlier,
between 1945 and 1965, he
said, there were more than
200 violent racial incidents
of whites attacking blacks
in Detroit and almost all
stemmed from the rst or
second black families mov-
ing into an all-white neigh-
borhood.
The migration of blacks
into Detroit, which helped
power its economic rise,
was followed by an exodus
of white residents for the
suburbs. In the last decade
alone from 2000 to
2010 Detroit lost about
a quarter-million residents.
The citys current popula-
tion of roughly 700,000 is
about 83 percent black.
Unlike cities such as
Chicago or Philadelphia,
where segregation pro-
duced disinvestment in
certain neighborhoods,
the nature of segrega-
tion in Detroit meant that
the entire city suffered
disinvestment, Douglas
Massey, a sociology and
public affairs professor at
Princeton, said in an email.
Whats left is a Detroit
dened by a barren land-
scape of deserted neigh-
borhoods and abandoned
buildings that overwhelms
the very recent rebound in
parts of downtown. The
consequences of that popu-
lation loss and segregation
extend beyond the declin-
ing property values and
erosion of the citys tax
base. The result is an iso-
lated city.
The racial divisions
between the city and the
suburbs until very recently
remained very hard and
fast, creating an us vs.
them mentality, Sugrue
said. Theres very little
political will by subur-
banites and other parts of
the state to provide nan-
cial support.
Indeed, it was the states
Republican governor, Rick
Snyder, who ultimately
pushed control of the over-
whelmingly Democratic
citys decrypted nances
into the hands of an emer-
gency manager and signed
off from the state capital in
Lansing to his recommen-
dation that Detroit le for
bankruptcy. There appears
to be little appetite there
for a bailout.
Cities are less powerful
in the federal government
and state capitals that they
were 40 years ago, Sugrue
said.
For those directly
impacted by the collapse,
watching the deterioration
of Detroit in recent years
has been agonizing.
Autos decline, race at root of Detroit collapse
Citys downward
spiral has been
going on for
decades.

ARLINGTON, Texas
A woman who died
while riding a 14-story
roller coaster at Six Flags
amusement park in North
Texas apparently fell from
the ride, police said.
Park spokeswoman
Sharon Parker conrmed
that a woman died while
riding the Texas Giant
roller coaster dubbed
the tallest steel-hybrid
coaster in the world
but did not give specics
of what happened.
We are committed to
determining the cause of
this tragic accident and
will utilize every resource
throughout this process,
Parker said in a statement
Saturday. It would be a
disservice to the family to
speculate regarding what
transpired.
Arlington Police Sgt.
Christopher Cook told
The Associated Press that
police believe the woman
fell from the ride at the Six
Flags Over Texas park. He
added that there appears
to have been no foul play.
Cook also said police,
re and emergency medi-
cal services responded
to the park around 6:45
p.m. Friday in reference
to a woman who had fall-
en from a train car while
riding a roller coaster.
He said the woman was
pronounced dead at the
scene. The woman was
not immediately identied
by authorities.
The amusement park
and the Texas Department
of Insurance, which
approves amusement
rides and ensures they
are inspected, are further
investigating the accident,
Cook said.
Carmen Brown told The
Dallas Morning News that
she was waiting in line to
get on the Texas Giant
and witnessed the woman
being strapped in and
then what ensued.
She goes up like this.
Then when it drops to
come down, thats when it
(the safety bar) released
and she just tumbled,
Brown, of Arlington, told
the newspaper.
Six Flags said the ride
would be closed while the
investigation continues.
At 14 stories high, the
Texas Giant has a drop of
79 degrees and a bank of
95 degrees. It can carry up
to 24 riders. It rst opened
in 1990 as an all-wooden
coaster and underwent a
$10 million renovation to
install steel-hybrid rails
and reopened in 2011.
Six Flags Over Texas
opened in 1961 and was
the rst amusement park
in the Six Flags system. It
is 17 miles west of down-
town Dallas. The parks
rst fatality occurred
in 1999. A 28-year-old
Arkansas woman drowned
and 10 other passengers
were injured when a raft-
like boat on the Roaring
Rapids ride overturned in
2 to 3 feet of water.
There were 1,204 ride-
related injuries reported
in the United States in
2011 about 4.3 for
every million visitors
according to the National
Safety Councils most
recent data. Of those, 61
were deemed serious,
the March 2013 report
said, and roller coasters
accounted for 405 inju-
ries.
Fatalities were not
listed in the report,
which was prepared for
Alexandria, Va.-based
International Association
of Amusement Parks and
Attractions. Also, only
144 of the 383 amusement
facilities with rides in the
United States responded
to the survey.
A 2005 report to the
U.S. Consumer Product
Safety Commission esti-
mated just over four
people died annually on
amusement rides from
1987 to 2002. The esti-
mate includes both mobile
amusement park rides and
xed-site rides.

Analysis: Resumption of Mideast talks not assured
Palestinians insist key demand involving pre-1967 borders still stands
KARINLAUBand
MOHAMMEDDARAGHMEH
Associated Press
RAMALLAH, West
Bank Disagreements
that blocked Israeli-
Palestinian negotiations
for the past ve years have
not been fully resolved,
despite U.S. Secretary of
State John Kerrys recent
announcement of prog-
ress, and theres no clear
path to a resumption of
talks.
Palestinian ofcials
said Sunday their key
demand remains: Ahead
of any talks, Israeli
Prime Minister Benjamin
Netanyahu must accept
Israels pre-1967 frontier
as the starting point for
drawing the border of a
future state of Palestine.
They say Kerrys renewed
endorsement of that fron-
tier as a baseline in closed-
door talks is not enough,
and that they need to hear
from Netanyahu himself.
Its not clear if this
amounts to last-minute
maneuvering or if the
Palestinians will walk
away if Netanyahu refuses
to accept that formula, as
he has done repeatedly.
On Sunday, Netanyahus
right-wing allies were
adamant that Israel would
not budge, and Netanyahu
appeared to be trying to
lower expectations about
any future negotiations.
Palestinian President
Mahmoud Abbas is skep-
tical of Netanyahus will-
ingness to negotiate in
good faith, suspecting the
Israeli hard-liner is more
interested in a peace pro-
cess as an antidote to
Israels international isola-
tion than in an actual deal.
Abbas has strong rea-
sons to return to the table,
however, even if its not on
his terms.
He can ill afford to rebuff
the U.S. and Europe, the
nancial backers of his
self-rule government, the
perpetually cash-strapped
Palestinian Authority. The
talks envisioned by Kerry
are to last for six to nine
months, according to the
Palestinians, rather than
being open-ended, which
would allow Abbas to
argue hes simply testing
Netanyahus intentions.
And so far, Abbas has not
faced a backlash at home
as he inches toward nego-
tiations.
Abbas has not spoken
publicly since Friday,
when Kerry announced
an agreement that estab-
lishes a basis for resuming
direct nal status nego-
tiations between the two
sides. Kerry cautioned at
the time that the agree-
ment is still in the process
of being formalized.
On Sunday, Abbas
ofce tried to clamp down
on ofcial chatter, saying
only two aides, Nabil Abu
Rdeneh and Yasser Abed
Rabbo, are authorized
to speak about the diplo-
matic efforts. Neither was
available.
However, two
Palestinian ofcials and
two senior PLO gures
speaking on condition
of anonymity because
they wanted to avoid run-
ning afoul of Abbas edict
said a resumption of
talks is not a done deal.
Israeli and Palestinian
negotiators are to meet
in Washington in com-
ing days or weeks, but
theyll have to hold more
talks about the talks,
just as Kerry did in six
shuttle missions this year
because gaps remain, the
Palestinian ofcials said.
Kerry gave Abbas a
number of assurances on
the terms for the negotia-
tions, but failed to secure
detailed Israeli commit-
ments, the ofcials said.
This includes the issue
of the 1967 borders, the
scope of a possible slow-
down in settlement con-
struction, and a timetable
for the release of dozens
of veteran Palestinian pris-
oners, held for attacks car-
ried out before the start of
intermittent peace talks in
1993.
In Cairo, the Arab
League reiterated Sunday
that negotiations must be
based on the 1967 frontier
and include a timeline,
as well as the prisoner
release.
Without this, hopes
for success are dim,
said Mohammed Sabih,
a top league ofcial for
Palestinian affairs. It is
certain that this (Israeli)
government does not want
a two-state solution but
wants one Jewish state
and the exclusion of the
Palestinian side, he said
in a statement.
In Israel, Netanyahu
allies ruled out an endorse-
ment of the 1967 lines or
a slowdown in settlement
construction in the West
Bank and east Jerusalem,
now home to nearly
600,000 Israelis.

US drops unarmed
bombs on Great
Barrier Reef
The Associated Press
CANBERRA, Australia
(AP) Two American
ghter jets dropped four
unarmed bombs into
Australias Great Barrier
Reef Marine Park last week
when a training exercise
went wrong, the U.S. Navy
said, angering environmen-
talists.
The two AV-8B Harrier
jets launched from aircraft
carrier USS Bonhomme
Richard each jettisoned
an inert practice bomb
and an unarmed laser-
guided explosive bomb
into the World Heritage-
listed marine park off the
coast of Queensland state
on Tuesday, the U.S. 7th
Fleet said in a statement
Saturday.
The four bombs, weigh-
ing a total 4,000 pounds,
were dropped into more
than 164 feet of water away
fromcoral to minimize pos-
sible damage to the reef,
the statement said. None
exploded.
The jets from the 31st
Marine Expeditionary
Unit had intended to drop
the ordnances on the
Townshend Island bomb-
ing range, but aborted the
mission when controllers
reported the area was not
clear of hazards.
The pilots conducted the
emergency jettison because
they were low on fuel and
could not land with their
bomb load, the Navy said.
The emergency hap-
pened on the second day of
the biennial joint training
exercise Talisman Saber,
which brings together
28,000 U.S. and Australian
military personnel over
three weeks.
The U.S. Navy and
Marine Corps were work-
ing with Australian author-
ities to investigate the inci-
dent, the Navy said.
A 7th Fleet spokes-
man did not immediately
respond on Sunday when
asked by email whether the
dumping posed any envi-
ronmental risk.
Australian Sen. Larissa
Waters, the inuential
Greens partys spokes-
woman on the Great
Barrier Reef, described the
dumping of bombs in such
an environmentally sensi-
tive area as outrageous
and said it should not be
allowed.
Have we gone com-
pletely mad? she told
Australian Broadcasting
Corp. Is this how we look
after our World Heritage
area now? Letting a foreign
power drop bombs on it?
Graeme Dunstan, who is
among the environmental-
ists and anti-war activists
demonstrating against the
joint exercises, said the
mishap proved that the
U.S. military could not be
trusted to protect the envi-
ronment.
How can they pro-
tect the environment and
bomb the reef at the same
time? Get real, Dunstan
said from the Queensland
coastal town of Yeppoon,
near where the war games
are taking place.
The Great Barrier Reef,
the worlds largest net-
work of coral structures, is
rich in marine life and
stretches more than 3,000
kilometers (1,800 miles)
along Australias northeast
coast.

SAN DIEGO
Moviegoers were ready for
a fright this weekend, send-
ing The Conjuring into
rst place at the box ofce,
while R.I.P.D. became the
summers latest big-budget
action lm to bite the dust.
The Conjuring, a
haunted-house thrill-
er from Warner Bros.,
debuted with $41.5 mil-
lion in North American
ticket sales, according to
studio estimates Sunday.
Starring Vera Farmiga,
Lili Taylor, Patrick Wilson
and Ron Livingston, The
Conjuring unseated two-
week box-ofce champ
Despicable Me 2, which
dropped to second place
with $25 million.
The Conjuring was
among four new releases
tempting moviegoers
this weekend. The new-
est animated offering,
Foxs Turbo, opened
with $21.5 million, good
for third place. Foxs head
of domestic distribution,
Chris Aronson, character-
ized the opening as a very
promising start, noting
that the lm wont open in
Europe until the fall.
But Universals big-bud-
get crime caper R.I.P.D.
opened with a disappoint-
ing $12.76 million. The
lm reportedly cost more
than $130 million to make,
compared to only about
$19.5 million for The
Conjuring.
Starring Jeff Bridges and
Ryan Reynolds, R.I.P.D
joins the years other mega-
budget summer ops,
including Pacic Rim,
White House Down,
After Earth and The
Lone Ranger.
Overall box ofce totals
are up, though, said Paul
Dergarabedian of box-
ofce tracker Hollywood.
com.
Despite the fact there
have been some high-pro-
le, high-budget ops, the
summer to date is up 12
percent from last year, he
said. For mid-July, to have
a modestly budgeted hor-
ror lm top the weekend
tells you how important
it is for audiences to have
options.
The Adam Sandler-
produced Sony comedy
Grown Ups 2, starring
Kevin James, Chris Rock,
David Spade and Salma
Hayek, held onto fourth
place in its second week of
release, earning $20 mil-
lion.
Summit Entertainments
Red 2, which stars Bruce
Willis and Helen Mirren
as retired CIA operatives,
debuted in fth with $18.5
million.
The Conjuring was
originally set for release
in the winter, but audience
tests proved so positive
that the studio moved the
lm to the heat of summer
movie season.
It was really a bold
choice, no question about
it, said Jeff Goldstein,
Warner Bros. executive
vice president of theatrical
distribution. With three
other movies against us
this week with high price
tags and high expectations
associated with them, this
result is even more impres-
sive.
Still, there was no chance
for this weekends movies
to match box-ofce totals
for the same weekend last
summer, when The Dark
Knight Rises opened with
$161 million domestically.

WASHINGTON
Drawing renewed atten-
tion to the economy,
President Barack Obama
will return this week to
an Illinois college where
he once spelled out a
vision for an expanded and
strengthened middle class
as a freshman U.S. sena-
tor, long before the Great
Recession would test his
presidency.
The address Wednesday
at Knox College in
Galesburg, Ill., will be the
rst in a new series of eco-
nomic speeches that White
House aides say Obama
intends to deliver over the
next several weeks ahead
of key budget deadlines in
the fall. A new scal year
begins in October, and the
government will soon hit
its borrowing limit.
The speech comes just
a week before Congress is
scheduled to leave for its
monthlong August recess
and is designed to build
public pressure on lawmak-
ers in hopes of averting the
showdowns over taxes and
spending that have charac-
terized past budget debates.
In his economic pitch,
Obama will talk about
efforts to expand manufac-
turing, sign up the unin-
sured for health care cover-
age, revitalize the housing
industry and broaden edu-
cational opportunities for
preschoolers and college
students. He will also pro-
mote the economic benets
of an immigration overhaul.
The White House is
promoting the speech as
part of an arc of economic
messages from the presi-
dent that began at Knox
College in 2005, when
Obama was in his rst year
in the Senate. Since then,
Obama has sought to raise
the prole of his econom-
ic agenda with periodic
speeches, including one at
Georgetown University in
Washington in 2009 and
one in Osawatomie, Kan.,
in 2011. The White House
posted a video highlight-
ing Obamas previous eco-
nomic addresses.
The president will also
speak Wednesday at the
University of Central
Missouri in Warrensburg,
Mo.
Obamas focus on the
economy comes as he has
experienced a degree of suc-
cess with the Senate, which
passed an overhaul of immi-
gration laws and unclogged
a Republican blockade
against several presidential
nominations. It also reects
a belief at the White House
that the administration has
been able to manage a series
of confrontations with
Congress over the Internal
Revenue Service, phone
surveillance of Americans
and the deadly attack on the
U.S. consulate in Benghazi,
Libya.
The president thinks
Washington has largely
taken its eye off the ball
on the most important
issue facing the country,
Obama senior adviser Dan
Pfeiffer said Sunday eve-
ning in a message sent to
the White Houses public
email list. Instead of talk-
ing about how to help the
middle class, too many
in Congress are trying
to score political points,
reght old battles and
trump up phony scandals.
Obamas agenda still
faces stiff opposition in the
House, where Republicans
have a majority. On immi-
gration, for example,
Speaker John Boehner has
said the House will not pass
the Senate bill and, instead,
intends to deal with the
issue on a piecemeal basis.
Obama is pushing to
end the federal budget cuts
that kicked in this year so
they dont extend into the
next scal year. That could
create a showdown with
congressional Republicans
in September, as the
end of the current scal
year approaches. Some
Republicans also want
more decit reduction as
a price for raising the debt
ceiling, a bargain Obama
says he will not make.
Republicans are fun-
damentally opposed to
Obamas mix of budget
cuts and tax increases. It
wasnt until after last years
election that Republicans
agreed to increase taxes for
the wealthiest Americans
in a deal that kept taxes for
most Americans at rates
set during the administra-
tion of President George
W. Bush.
Appearing on CBS
Face the Nation Sunday,
Boehner said the way to
get the economy moving
again is by stopping unnec-
essary regulations and
bringing the federal decit
under control.

Atroubling tax trend
MAllArd FillMorE doonEsBUrY
coMMEntArY: JohnJ. GiBBons
www.timesleader.com THE TIMES LEADER SERVING THE PUBLIC TRUST SINCE 1881 Monday, July 22, 2013 PAGE 9A
The tax authorities are switching to
emergency mode as this years tax rev-
enue is increasingly likely to miss the
target by an unexpectedly large margin.
According to data presented by the
National Tax Service, tax revenue dur-
ing the rst ve months of the year
totaled 82.13 trillion won, a shocking
fall of as much as 9 trillion won from the
same period a year ago.
If the trend continues, the shortfall is
expected to expand to 10 trillion won by
the end of the rst half and 20 trillion
won by the end of the year.
This means the governments tax
income for this year could drop to as
lowas 172 trillion won fromthe 192 tril-
lion won it collected last year. The gov-
ernments revenue target for this year is
199 trillion won.
The main culprit for the disappoint-
ing outcome is the prolonged economic
slowdown, which sapped corporate and
value-added tax incomes.
The NTS said it collected 19.9 tril-
lion won from corporations during the
January-May period, a disheartening
drop of 18 percent from the previous
year. Sluggish exports and stagnant
domestic consumption weighed heavily
on corporate sales.
On top of that, the corporate tax
rate was effectively lowered last year
by the introduction of a middle income
bracket: For companies whose taxable
income ranges between 200 million won
and 20 billion won, the tax rate has been
cut from 22 percent to 20 percent.
The income from value-added tax
also dropped 7.2 percent over the same
period, reecting lackluster household
consumption due to mounting debt.
As tax collection is falling far short
of expectations, creating another sup-
plementary budget looks increasingly
inevitable.
In May, the government drew up a
17.3-trillion-won additional budget to
plug revenue shortfalls and stimulate
the economy. Yet ofcials rule out the
possibility of creating a second extra
budget. What worries us is that the rev-
enue shortage does not appear to be a
one-off problem. Ofcials need to scruti-
nize the situation more closely and take
bold measures to stimulate corporate
investment. The best way to increase
tax revenue is to accelerate economic
growth, which in turn requires active
corporate investment.
The Korea Herald, Seoul, South
Korea
a verdict versus justice
There are uncanny echoes of the
politics of Stephen Lawrence case
in the acquittal in Florida of George
Zimmerman, the neighborhood watch
volunteer who shot Trayvon Martin, an
unarmed teenager, having assumed him
to be a criminal.
It took 44 days after Martins death
and a national campaign in the United
States for Zimmerman to be arrested.
In that time, evidence was lost as the
Florida police insisted that the states
law on self-defense barred them from
bringing charges.
The prosecutors said the case was
not about race. Before the trial began,
Judge Deborah Nelson forbade the use
of the term racial proling in the
courtroom, and yet, without the ele-
ment of race, Martin might still be alive
today. Zimmermans pursuit of and con-
frontation with him was premised on
the assumption that the very presence
of a black teenager in a gated commu-
nity was sufcient cause for alarm.
Like the Lawrence case, the Martin
trial has attracted national scrutiny, not
always helpful to the cause of justice.
President Barack Obama said before
the trial that if he had a son, he would
look like Trayvon. On Sunday, the presi-
dent said the acquittal should be met
with calm reection, and reminded
Americans that theirs was a nation of
laws. Put those two comments together,
and the limits of presidential empathy
in the face of acquittal become evident.
The question this case poses is:
whose laws? Try as commentators
might to tiptoe around the fact, the size
of the frame in which these cases are
judged is enormous. The jury decided
that the evidence did not exist to prove
beyond reasonable doubt that Martin
was an innocent victim, but that does
little to discharge the police and pros-
ecutor of their responsibility for nding
and presenting that evidence.
Whether justice stooped as low in
this case as it did in Alabama in 1965,
when Jimmie Lee Jackson, an army vet-
eran on a march in support of a voter-
registration drive was shot twice in the
stomach by a state trooper, is doubt-
ful. Yet although the racial dynamics
may have changed from the days of the
civil rights movement - the teenagers
assailant was a Latino - the message an
acquittal sends out to African American
parents is familiar: there are few places
after dark where your sons are safe,
either from the police or from the color
of the law. If someone like Zimmerman
assumes your son is a threat, the risk is
its open season.
Police commissioners claim that
tough stop-and-frisk policies clean up
the streets, even though no such effect
can be denitively established in New
York or elsewhere. What matters now
is to deal with the damage the verdict
has done. As the Lawrence case has
shown, the verdict and justice remain
miles apart, sending out devastating
messages that cannot be ignored.
The Guardian, London
Pakistan a danger to all
The recently leaked internal Pakistan
government report on the 2011 U.S.
raid that killed Osama bin Laden
afrms President Barack Obamas deci-
sion not to alert the Pakistani govern-
ment before sending in Navy Seals.
The report found complacency,
ignorance, incompetence, irresponsibil-
ity and possibly worse at various levels
inside and outside the government, to
say nothing of a culture of corruption
and indifference to crime.
To have brought such a government
into the planning process would have
assured mission failure.
The Al-Jazeera news agency acquired
the 337-page report and published
it on its website this week at aje.
me/186WI4S.
In response to the report, Talat
Aslam, senior editor of The News in
Karachi, told the Christian Science
Monitor that it reveals Pakistan to be
in complete shambles.
No one, he said, comes out com-
pletely competent. The military, civil-
ians, revenue department it is one
big bunch of real incompetence.
The picture of Pakistan that emerges
from this internal report is so bleak
that the U.S. and countries around the
world should immediately renewefforts
to contain the damage such a weakly
governed nuclear power could do.
But the list of what needs to change
in Pakistan is so long that it must be
disheartening to even the most optimis-
tic diplomat.
Since the country was formed in
1947 through partition from India, its
history has been marked by aggression
against India and Kashmir and a series
of leaders unable to create permanent
stability.
The new report demonstrates that
plenty of work will be needed to stabi-
lize that dangerous country and provide
the kind of competent government the
Pakistani people deserve.
Kansas City Star
The War on terror: Life, death and drones
On Friday, a federal judge
in Washington will hear
a challenge to the Obama
administrations approach
to targeted killings. I nd
myself frustrated by how
little progress weve made.
In 2004, I represented
Guantanamo Bay detainees
in the Supreme Court in
Rasul v. Bush, challenging
President George W. Bushs
claim that he could hold
noncitizens at Guantanamo
without judicial review based
on the administrations uni-
lateral claim that the detain-
ees were enemies of the
United States. I argued that
the presidents position pre-
sented a profound threat to
the role of the courts in safe-
guarding the rule of law, and
that the prisoners were enti-
tled to due process, includ-
ing judicial examination of
the governments reasons for
holding them. The Supreme
Court agreed, reafrming
that an asserted state of war
is not a blank check for the
executive branch when civil
liberties are at stake.
When campaigning for
ofce, then-Sen. Barack
Obama agreed with the
courts decision and criti-
cized Bushs abandonment of
basic checks and balances in
the so-called war on terror.
Yet today, President Obama
has taken his predecessors
assertion of executive at
even further. His administra-
tion says it has the power
not just to detain suspected
terrorists but also to kill
them without any judicial
oversight or accountability.
That dramatic claim of
authority is at issue in a law-
suit brought by the Center
for Constitutional Rights and
the American Civil Liberties
Union, which challenges the
2011 extrajudicial killing by
drones of three American
citizens, including an
alleged (but never criminally
charged) terrorism suspect,
Anwar Awlaki, his compan-
ion Samir Khan and, two
weeks later and hundreds
of miles away, 16-year-old
Abdulrahman Awlaki,
Anwars son, whom no one
had accused of wrongdo-
ing. The lawsuit charges
that the killings violated the
Constitution, including its
most elementary protection
against the deprivation of life
without due process of law.
Seeking to dismiss
the lawsuit, the Justice
Department has main-
tained that such killings are
immune from judicial review.
The administration argues
that due process does not
require judicial process and
that we should trust the
executives judgment when
it takes the lives of its own
citizens abroad. That posi-
tion that the government
should be able to use lethal
force against individuals it
deems to be a threat based
on a secret executive process
using standards and evi-
dence that are never tested
by a court is disturbingly
familiar. Indeed, it is just as
much an affront to the rule of
law as it was in 2004 when
it was defended by the Bush
administration.
Our constitutional system
of separation of powers
demands a role for courts
when individual liberties are
at issue. This premise is not
only made plain by the 5th
Amendments guarantee of
due process, it has also been
repeatedly vindicated by his-
torical experience.
The Bush administra-
tion defended the secrecy
surrounding Guantanamo
detainees and its conten-
tion that due process was
unnecessary in their deten-
tion by saying its actions
were justied by danger the
men presented. The admin-
istration insisted that the
courts should simply accept
its determination that all
of them were hardened ter-
rorists or the worst of the
worst a once-popular
claim that was proved mani-
festly false after the Rasul
decision permitted legal
access to the men. Likewise,
the Bush administrations
solicitor general tried to
reassure a skeptical Supreme
Court to trust its unilateral
executive authority by pro-
claiming that the U.S. does
not torture a claim dra-
matically belied by pictures
from Abu Ghraib released
just days later.
The Obama administra-
tion is following a disturbing-
ly similar course, attempting
to reassure the public that it
is making life-and-death deci-
sions with careful delibera-
tion and concern.
In Washington on Friday,
lawyers for two families
who have lost relatives to
U.S. drone strikes will ask
a federal court to continue
the judiciarys long-standing
and vital role in our constitu-
tional system.
In doing so, the court can
remind the executive branch
that a fair and open legal
process is most important
when it comes to matters of
life and death.

immigration reform: its alive!
Reports of the death of immigration
reform are greatly exaggerated. The
debate isnt over. Reform isnt tanking.
Its alive and well, with the Republican-
controlled House preparing to take up
where the Democratic Senate left off a
few weeks ago.
Yes, the debate in the lower chamber
will be very different than it was in the
Senate. House Republicans are divid-
ed, with some, including many in the
House leadership, eager to move ahead
with reform, others adamantly opposed
and yet others still uncertain. But that
doesnt mean they wont make progress
in months ahead perhaps even sur-
prising progress by House standards.
Lets be realistic. The Senate has been
workingonimmigrationsinceNovember.
Its been a highly public process, end-
lessly analyzed in Washington and in the
media. But at no time during the Senate
debate did any House Republicans, even
those most favorable to an immigration
overhaul, show the slightest inclination
to take up the Senate bill.
The bipartisan House group crafting a
reform package was crystal clear: It was
working on its own proposal. Leadership
concurred: The House was going to do
things its own way. And rank-and-le
Republicans were blunter still, leaving
little doubt about their disdain for any-
thing particularly a take-it-or-leave-it
omnibus package handed down from
the upper chamber.
Still, last week, when Speaker John
A. Boehner announced for perhaps the
sixth time that the House was not going
to take up the Senate bill, many reform-
ers exploded with indignation.
Sorry, folks, the faults not in the
House. Its in your unrealistic playbook.
But the point is theres no reason to
despair now. The House isnt backtrack-
ing or being obstructionist its doing
what it said it would do all along, moving
ahead in its own way.
Pessimists mischaracterize the House
strategy, complaining that leadership
is gearing up to move piecemeal
which, because its not a comprehensive
approach, is seen as intransigent and
inimical to progress. But this insistence
that theres only one way to do things
could end up doing more harm than
good. Even if House Republicans were
unanimously in favor of reform, in the
wake of Obamacare, its unlikely that
they would pass an omnibus, 1,200-
page legislative package. Big is bad in
Washington these days, especially among
Republicans. Lawmakers want to move
carefully. They want to break things into
bite-sized pieces. And on a controversial
issue like immigration reform, they dont
want to nd unpleasant surprises tucked
away in the corner of bills they otherwise
support.

America Foundation and president of

Job Fair
From page 1A
During a recent survey of inmates
asking them to note barriers to their
success, nding employment was one
of their top concerns, said Franks.
Without employment and without
income, they remain at risk to re-offend.
She also said those who have succeed-
ed in maintaining employment have an
increased sense of self esteem and are
more likely to successfully reunite with
their families. She cites many benets of
employment not only to the individual,
but to the entire community as well,
with an increase in productivity and an
decrease in the crime rate.
Franks also lauds the efforts of county
Judge William Amesbury, who presides
over the drug court program.
Judge Amesburys previous experi-
ence in social work and his positive
commitment to the criminal justice sys-
tem provides the vision vital to making
this system work, she said. He truly
embraces the concept that supporting
those within that system makes it pos-
sible for them to succeed in the long
term.
She credits those agencies within the
community that have made the job fair
possible.
The Luzerne County Department
of Probation Services and the Luzerne
County Division of Corrections, the
Wilkes-Barre and Hazleton chambers of
commerce, and CareerLink have been
instrumental in getting the word out
and making the event possible.
Those who qualify to register and
employers who would like to participate

We look forward to appropriately

ers, and our county, said Franks. We

pen.

a gated community in
Sanford, Fla. Zimmerman
told police he shot Martin
only after the African-
American teenager
physically attacked him;
Martins family and sup-
porters say Zimmerman,
who identies himself as
Hispanic, racially proled
Martin as a potential crim-
inal and wrongly followed
him.
Zimmermans lawyers
decided not to pursue a
pretrial immunity hearing
allowed by Floridas stand-
your-ground law. But
jurors were told in nal
instructions by Circuit
Judge Debra Nelson
that they should acquit
Zimmerman if they found
he had no duty to retreat
and had the right to stand
his ground and meet force
with force, including
deadly force if he reason-
ably believed that it was
necessary.
Before the stand-your-
ground law was passed
in 2005, the instruction
would have read that
Zimmerman cannot jus-
tify his use of force likely
to cause death or great
bodily harm if by retreat-
ing he could have avoided
the need to use that force.
Cleaning up the island
on the townships ticket
would take too much
attention and resources,
Rovinski said, adding the
islands ood debris is an
eyesore, Rovinski said.
The building is not
quite a house. It appears
to be a garage with a
second-oor apartment.
There are three rooms on
the second oor includ-
ing a kitchen with a sink,
cabinets and a stove that
are intact after nearly
two years. The rst oor
is completely gutted.
Though the appliances
inside are of a bygone
style, the building has
new-looking vinyl win-
dows and siding.
Connolly said, while
she doesnt believe the
island owners are in
violation by leaving the
junk untended, DEP is
concerned that some
hazardous debris like
air conditioners, refrig-
erators, car batteries
and gas tanks might
leak chemicals into the
ground or get swept away
by rising water. Federal
money available would
pay to clean up the haz-
ardous material, but the
landowners must see to
the house and non-toxic
debris, Connolly said.
Owning a piece of river
Vullo and Lori bought
the island in 1971 from
the Pennsylvania Coal
Co. hoping to do some
hunting and shing. Back
then, there were muskrat,
beaver, deer and duck
to hunt. Its hard to say
when the island got its
interesting moniker, but
history books show it was
named, at some point,
after the Wintermoot
family. The Wintermoots
were British sympathiz-
ers who yielded their
estate, Fort Wintermoot
near Wyoming, to Col.
John Butler in 1778.
Butler camped there with
his soldiers to stage what
became known as the his-
toric Wyoming Massacre
in which 360 patriots
died.
Wintermoot was deed-
ed to the two friends at
37 acres in 1971. Vullo
and Lori paid $1,900 for
it. Vullo estimated sedi-
ment has probably caused
the island to grow closer
to 50 acres.
He said now its popu-
lated by mostly muskrat.
The building on the
island ended its river
journey on the shoreline.
Behind it, crossing the
island, a trail of destruc-
tion was left by raging
river.
Mounds of uniform,
pencil-shaped sticks from
a pile around childrens
toys, lawn furniture and
other things you could
nd behind a typical
West Side familys home
all seem out of place on
the otherwise pristine
island.
Vullo said he and his
family camped there
when his children were
young, but its been years
since he and Lori used it
the way they intended.
Vullo and Lori said
no one has claimed the
structure. Vullo said he
doesnt believe he and
Lori should have to clean
up the spot because they
didnt create the mess.
Connolly said DEP does
not know who owned the
building rst.
Vullo and Lori pay
taxes on the island prop-
erty, between $300 and
$400 annually, to the
three municipalities.
to Foxs Oscar-nominated Gasland
aired July 8 on HBO and McAleers
FrackNation aired the following
night on AXS have clear aims
when it comes to hydraulic fractur-
ing, or fracking, the gas drilling meth-
od by which chemical-laced uid is
injected into the earth to free natural
gas trapped deep underground.
Experts say the pro- and anti-
drilling movements represented by
the lmmakers each have some good
points even though Fox claims
the process is an environmental and
public-health disaster while McAleer
says Fox distorts facts and ignores
the benets of drilling.
Jeff Frankel, an economics profes-
sor at Harvards Kennedy School of
Government, said, The fracking
revolution is clearly good news from
the national security and economic
standpoint since it reduces imports
and generates jobs and investment in
America. He said the most extreme
fracking critics dont seem to under-
stand how much the gas boom is
reducing pollution by cutting the
amount of coal that gets burned in
power plants.
Yet the fracking critics have legiti-
mate concerns, Frankel said.
It makes sense that they would
want to be cautious about drilling in
some areas such as sensitive water-
sheds, Frankel said. Residents should
get to choose whether they want drill-
ing locally, he said.
If all the anti-drillers passion gets
channeled into vigilant regulation,
then it will turn out to have been a
good thing, Frankel said.
McAleer concedes that Fox appears
to be swaying people in at least some
states to oppose drilling.
I think theyve got a very strong
case in New York, and they have a
good chance of winning in places
like Colorado and California, said
McAleer, who added that theres an
irony to that.
New York has placed a moratorium
on fracking, but natural gas is the top
source of energy for the state, dwarf-
ing hydroelectric or nuclear power.
New York gets virtually all that natu-
ral gas from states that allow drilling,
such as Pennsylvania.
Environmental groups in Colorado
and California have also tried to limit
or ban fracking, even though those
states have long histories of oil and
gas drilling.
If you want to ban fracking, thats
your business. But youre just shift-
ing production to the next state,
McAleer said.
Fox said, New Yorkers are becom-
ing increasingly aware that if they
want to ban fracking they have to
begin to change their energy infra-
structure to renewable energy, and
that more and more groups are push-
ing for that transition.
But even prominent scientists who
warn about the dangers of global
warming say the switch will take a
long time.
Suggesting that renewables will
let us phase rapidly off fossil fuels
in the United States, China, India or
the world as a whole is almost the
equivalent of believing in the Easter
Bunny and Tooth Fairy, former
NASA scientist James Hansen wrote
in an online essay last year.
Hansen added that renewable
energies are grossly inadequate for
our energy needs now and in the
foreseeable future.
Thats essentially why the Obama
administration supports using natu-
ral gas as a bridge fuel during
the transition to renewables, since
gas emits half the carbon dioxide of
coal.

Scandal
From page 1A
all bills for placements
from the last three
months of the scal year.
The expense still pales
in comparison to the
countys record high
$15.8 million placement
costs in 2004, when
Ciavarella presided over
juvenile court. The coun-
ty had as many as 200
juveniles simultaneously
in placement at that time,
ofcials say.
Castano noted spend-
ing on placements at state-
run youth development
centers is increasing, and
these secure facilities are
more expensive and usu-
ally reserved for more
violent cases. The county
spent $365,348 lodging
juveniles in development
centers during the rst
nine months of the 2012-
13 scal year, compared
to $289,625 in the entire
previous scal year, he
said.
More serious crimes
County Court
Administrator Michael
Shucosky attributes cost
increases to the types
of crimes committed by
juveniles.
We seem to have devel-
oped a culture around
here of more serious
crimes involving young
children, he said.
Juveniles who commit
sexual and arson crimes,
for example, require more
intensive specialized
treatment that takes lon-
ger and costs more than
basic therapy, Shucosky
said.
You have to put them
somewhere to get treat-
ment so they wont harm
other people, he said.
Some of the facilities in
Pennsylvania that provide
therapy for juvenile sex
offenders charge around
$270 per juvenile a day.
Shucosky pointed to a
sample group of 68 juve-
nile court cases resolved
from April 1 to July 1.
Only seven were com-
mitted to juvenile facili-
ties. County judges con-
tinue to look at placement
as a last resort, he said.
In an attempt to keep
more juvenile offenders
at home, Castano said he
successfully pushed for
an in-home program in
which therapists spend
an average four months
working with offend-
ers and their families in
their natural environ-
ment tackling discipline,
behavioral and commu-
nication problems. This
multi-systemic therapy
has had proven results,
he told council.
The county also par-
ticipates in initiatives to
help youth who are at-risk
or already in the crimi-
nal justice system for
minor rst-time offenses,
including a college men-
toring program and youth
aid panels involving vol-
unteers who try to steer
juveniles toward positive
goals, Shucosky said.

DOUG FERGUSON
AP Golf Writer
GULLANE, Scotland
One of the greatest nal
rounds in a major. Two of
the best shots he ever struck
with a 3-wood. The third leg
of the Grand Slam.
Phil Mickelson never imag-
ined any of this happening at
the British Open.
No wonder he never took
his hand off the base of that
silver claret jug as he talked
about the best Sunday he ever
had at a major. Five shots out
of the lead, Mickelson blew
past Tiger Woods, caught
up to Lee Westwood and
Masters champion Adam
Scott, and won golfs oldest
championship with the lowest
nal round in his 80 majors.
With four birdies over the
last six holes, Mickelson
closed with a 5-under 66 for
a three-shot win over Henrik
Stenson. No longer is he
mystied by links golf, and
he has his name etched in
that jug to prove it.
This is such an accomplish-
ment for me because I just never
knew if Id be able to develop
the game to play links golf effec-
tively, Mickelson said. To play
the best round arguably of my
career, to putt better than Ive
ever putted, to shoot the round
of my life it feels amazing to
win the claret jug.
Introduced as the cham-
pion golfer of the year, he
held the oldest trophy in golf
over his head to show it off to
one side of the massive grand-
stand lining the 18th green at
Muireld, and then the other.
An hour earlier, they gave the
43-year-old Mickelson the
loudest ovation of the week as
he walked up the nal fairway.
He drained an 8-foot birdie
putt and thrust his arms in the
air, hugged caddie JimBones
Mackay and whispered to him,
I did it. After signing for
the lowest nal round ever at
Muireld, Mickelson huddled
with his wife and three chil-
dren back from a quick
holiday to Spain for a long
embrace and waited for the
others to nish.
Westwood, who started
the day with a two-shot lead,
fell behind for the rst time
all day with a bogey on the
par-3 13th hole and never
recovered, closing with a 75.
Scott took the outright
lead with a 4-foot birdie on
the 11th, and then closed as
sloppily as he did last year
when he threw away the
Open at Royal Lytham & St.
Annes. He made four straight
bogeys starting at the 13th,
and a nal bogey on the 18th
gave him a 72. At least he
has a green jacket from the
Master to console him.
Woods, in his best posi-
tion to win a major since
the crisis in his personal life,
stumbled badly on his way to
a 74 and was never a serious
challenger.
We know that he goes for
broke, and if thats how he was
feeling and pulling it off, hes
got the ability to do that, Scott
said about Mickelson. And
hes gone and won an Open
easily. So every credit to him.

PARIS I wont let you

This Tour de France champion
is for real.
That, in so many words, is
the promise Chris Froome
made as the newest winner
of cyclings showcase race so
badly hurt over the years by
riders who doped to win it.
Because of their deceit,
Froome faced a series of ques-
tions as he dominated rivals
over three weeks of racing, all
centered on the same key con-
cern: Can we believe in you?
Yes, he insisted. The sport is
changing, he argued. He han-
dled the scrutiny politely and
adroitly. He said he understood
the skepticism. And on the
podium in Paris, his wiry frame
wrapped in his canary yellow jer-
sey, Froome asked the guardians
of the 110-year-old race and all
those who love it to trust him.
This is one yellow jersey
that will stand the test of
time, he said.
In two years, Britain has had
two winners: Bradley Wiggins

MOOSIC For most of the
last month, Scranton/Wilkes-
Barre had been one of the hot-
test teams in the International
League.
The Rail-
Riders cut their
decit in the
I nt er nat i onal
League North
Division more
than in half. But
most streaks
come to an end
at some point.
That was the
story for the
RailRiders dur-
ing a weekend
series against
Louisville that was capped
by a 4-1 loss to the Bats
Sunday afternoon. The loss
was the third straight for the
RailRiders against the Bats to
fall in a series for the rst time
since June
17-18, when
they lost two
out of three
to Rochester.
After winning
the rst game
of the series,
8-0, the Rail-
Riders scored
just three in
the last three games.
I think a lot of the hitters
came back to the dugout say-
ing golly, I shouldve got that
one, RailRiders second base-
man David Adams said. Its
unfortunate we couldnt put
anything together because our
staff did pretty well.
It didnt take long for the
Bats to get on the board as
speedster Billy Hamilton got
things started again. The top
prospect in the Reds organi-
zation walked to lead off the
game. Although SWB starter
Jose Ramirez threw over to
rst ve times to try to keep
him close, Hamilton still stole
second then came around
to score on a single by Felix
Perez.
Hamilton and Perez were
at it again their next times up
in the third. Hamilton singled
and immediately stole second.

BRIAR CREEK Great
teams nd a way to win, no
matter the cir-
cumstances.
Trailing by
three runs and
down to its
nal strike,
Plains scored
four times in
the bottom of
the seventh inning to escape
elimination and defeat Bristol
7-6 on Sunday in the Senior
League Little League softball
seminals at Ber-Vaughn Park.
Plains hopes to move from
great team to state champion-
ship team today at 1 against
St. Marys in the state nal.
Were back. Were here
again, Plains shortstop Liz
Ellsworth said. We were here
two years ago (in Junior) play-
ing for it all. Were all seniors
now. We want to go out win-
ners. We want to go to (region-
als in) Massachusetts.
The nal inning started
with Madison Pugh drawing
a walk and Keighlyn Oliver
bunting down the third-base
line for a hit Bristol third
baseman Katie Santana didnt
even make a throw. A elders
choice and a strikeout brought
Marissa Ross to the plate.
Ross worked the count to
2-2 before bouncing a ground-
er to short. The ball was bob-
bled and a quick throw to third
was late, loading the bases.
Ellsworth followed by hitting
the rst pitch she saw into
left, scoring Oliver and Katie
Colleran to make it 6-5. Abby
Shorts then singled to right,
bringing home Ross from sec-
ond to tie the game.
Julie Suchocki, hitless on
the day, fell behind 0-2 with
Ellsworth anxiously watching
from third base. The Plains
pitcher fouled off an offering,
then took a ball. Suchocki con-
nected with the next pitch.
She didnt hit it far, but it was
hit perfectly and she launched
herself toward rst base.
That was big time,
Suchocki said. I denitely
wanted to (turn around and
see Ellsworth going home) so
bad. I got to rst and every-
one was coming out onto the
eld.
The ball dribbled forward
and stopped midway between
home plate and the circle.
Bristol pitcher Alyssa Adams
charged in and tossed the ball
to catcher Tianna Brewington.
Getting Ellsworth com-
ing home was Bristols only
chance.
Ellsworth was not to be
denied, though. She slid under
Brewingtons tag attempt and
Plains completed its improb-
able comeback.
I saw the ball (hit) and I
knew that was my chance,
Ellsworth said. When I was
down there (at home plate), I
didnt know if I should just sit
there or jump up. The umpire
made the call it was insane.
Wow!
Plains had averaged nearly
14 runs in its rst ve state
tourney games, never scoring
less than six in a game. But
the District 16 champs started
slowly Sunday. Bristol starter
Bryanna Vearling struck out
eight of the rst 12 batters she
faced, allowing only an ineld
single to Shorts.
Ross stepped in with two
down in the fourth and nally
got a ball out of the ineld. Her
line drive was hit so hard that
the Bristol left elder couldnt
get her arms up fast enough to
catch it. The ball went to the
fence for a double.
Two pitches later, Ellsworth
hit a towering shot to left for a
two-run homer, giving Plains a
2-1 advantage.
I honestly think that (Ross
double) put a re under us,
Ellsworth said. That was my
rst home run out of the park.
As I was rounding rst, coach
Bob (Conway) said to me,
thats gone. I looked up and
thats when I knew.
Plains added a run in the
sixth on an RBI groundout by
Shorts.
Suchocki, who allowed
just two hits in four innings
against Bristol on Saturday,
truly scattered 14 hits by the
District 21 champs. Bristol
stranded nine runners, leaving
the bases loaded in the rst
and fth innings.
There was denitely a lot
of pressure, Suchocki said.
But this year is our year to
put up.

From page 1B
all day, Swoyersville manager
Sean Toole said. He was com-
fortable and I was comfortable
with the decision.
After all, the team has much
bigger games on its mind.
The victory put unbeaten
Swoyersville in the regional
winners bracket nal against
Wyoming Valley league foe
Greater Pittston at 4:30 p.m.
today. The winner of that game
will enjoy a day off, then have the
luxury of winning just one of two
possible game against the team
that emerges from the losers
bracket.
It was a thought to keep
going, Nixon said of his early
departure, but we had to think
ahead in the tournament. It felt
youve got to think ahead. We
have a lot of tough games ahead.
The toughest part of
Swoyervilles day was guring
out whether or not to give Nixon
a shot to try for a no-hitter.
Swoyersville scored single runs
in the rst two innings, when
Mike Leonard singled and scored
on an error, and Jeremy Sabecky
doubled home Matt Zielen.
Doubles by Nick Hogan, Ryan
Hogan and Evan McCue gave
Swoyersville two more runs in the
third inning. And Swoyersville
salted the game away with a
three-run fourth inning, fueled
by an RBI single from Leonard
and a run-scoring double by Joe
Pechulis.
Much better performance
than (Saturday), said Toole,
whose 23-0 teamtook a 2-1 victo-
ry in its regional opener. Credit
the kids. We did the little things.
Meanwhile, Nixon gave
Manseld/Wellsboro very little.
Quickly gaining the reputa-
tion as a big-game ace after a
two-hit pitching performance
for Wyoming Valley West High
School in the District 2 champi-
onship game, Nixon was just as
dominant Sunday if not as
sharp.
Matt Reese led off against him
by reaching on an ineld error
and Nixon issued four walks
including two in the third inning.
But nobody came close to scor-
ing against him, because Nixon
found something working for
him. Even if he wasnt quite sure
what it was.
Honestly, I couldnt tell you,
Nixon said. I didnt feel like I
had my best stuff. In key at-bats, a
good curveball here, a good fast-
ball there it turned out good.
It had a chance to turn into a
no-hitter.
First baseman McCue kept the
suspense going by racing toward
right eld and making an over-
the shoulder snag of a soft liner to
end the fth inning. Swoyersville
center elder Sabecky than
tracked down Ben Shaws long
shot to lead off the sixth by racing
toward the fence and extending
his glove for another nifty grab.
They knewit was a no-hitter,
Nixon, who nished with seven
strikeouts, said of his bid at a
baseball rarity. But the guys
were joking, everytime I seem to
pitch, they seem to make good
plays behind me.
It made for a good debate in
the mind of Toole.
If the effort came in a regular-
season, seven-inninggame, Nixon
may have gone to the mound for
the seventh inning. But Legion
baseball extends its games to
nine innings from the regional
tournament on, and Toole may
need Nixon on the mound later in
the tourney.
We would have talked to him,
Toole said. We have a pretty
good open communication, we
talk a lot.
After the talks nished, Brodie
nished the victory.
He surrendered Manseld/
Wellsboros rst hit when Connor
Coolidge led off the seventh
inning with a bouncer that took
a weird hop under the glove of
third baseman Pechulis. And if
there was any doubt about that
being a hit, Matt Reese erased all
thoughts of a combined no-hitter
by dropping a double just inside
the right eld line to begin the
eighth inning. Reese eventually
came around to score Manseld/
Wellsboros lone run on Ben
Shaws sacrice y.
By that time, Swoyersville
had taken total command and
a 10-0 lead, when Ryan Hogan
and Pechulis delivered sacrice
ies and McCue ripped a run-
scoring single in the top of the
eighth.
Always the team player, Nixon
was content to cheer from the
bench at that point.
I dont know about (pitching)
nine, but denitely two more,
Nixon said. It was denitely a
thought later in the game. I could
have denitely pitched a little
more.
But it wasnt needed.

JUSTIN BEITER
For The Times Leader
HANOVER TWP. The Berwick
American Legion team composed a recipe
for disaster that ultimately
caused its Region 5 playoff
run to end Sunday.
Five errors, base running
miscues, a lack of clutch
hitting and just plain bad
luck all were ingredients
in a 6-1 defeat to South
Scranton. With the win,
South Scranton will advance in the losers
bracket and play this morning.
We couldnt get a break at all,
Berwick manager Joe Papada said. Not
to take anything away from (South
Scranton), but we just couldnt get a
break. They hit balls that bounced over
our heads. Balls were falling in, too many
double plays, baserunning mistakes. We
just didnt play well, bottom line.
Things started off well enough for
Berwick in the top of the rst. T.J.
Lashock singled up the middle with two
outs, then Joe Favata followed with a line
drive that sliced down the left-eld line to
drive in the games rst run.
But South Scranton was quick to
answer in the bottom of the rst. With one
out, John Joe Grifn singled. Sheamus
Lunney, who produced both at the plate
and on the mound, roped a double to left-
center that tied the score against Berwick
starter Kyle Miller.
For the next three innings, both pitch-
ers settled in and kept the score even. But
it was Berwick that had the better scoring
chances.
In the second, Dan Curtin led off with
a single and stole second. But he was
stranded there as Berwick couldnt get a
ball out of the ineld.
In the third, Berwick produced a two-
out rally that loaded the bases. Curtin got
a good swing on a Lunney fastball, but
lined out to right to halt the threat.
That was be a recurring theme for
Berwick, which stranded eight runners
through six innings, and 11 total.
Miller got into trouble in the bottom of
the fth. Back-to-back singles by Jimmy
Petrucci and Matt Harte put runners on
rst and second, and Grifn drew a walk
to load the bases with one out. But Miller
pitched his way out of it to minimize the
damage. Lunneys sacrice y to left gave
his team a 2-1 lead. Cody Talanca then
made a nice defensive play on a ground
ball to rst with Miller covering to keep
it a one-run lead.
He only allowed three earned runs,
Papada said of Miller. Hes been solid all year.
He throws hard. Hes probably our No. 1. But
hes efcient too. Every year he has gotten
better. We just have to play defense. Our team
is about defense and pitching. (Sunday) we
had the pitching, but didnt have the defense.
Once South Scranton went ahead,
Lunney continued his solid pitching. The
Scranton High School senior pitched
around two errors in the sixth to avoid
trouble. Lunney went the distance, allow-
ing one run on eight hits while striking
out ve and walking two.
Trailing 5-1, Berwick put two men on
in the seventh with one out after an Eric
May walk and a Lashock single. Harte
made a running catch of a pop-up to
shortstop, and was able to double May off
of second base. Miller would reach on an
error to start the eighth, but was doubled
off rst on Curtins line drive to second.

Berwick falters in playofs
to help Greater Pittston defeat
Jersey Shore, 7-2 Sunday at
the Hanover Area High School
baseball eld.
That put Greater Pittston
in a winners bracket matchup
against unbeaten Swoyersville
at 4:30 p.m. today at the
Hanover Area eld.
I would call it aggressive,
Grove said of his style of scram-
bling around the bases.
Greater Pittston nearly called
it disastrous.
With the scored tied 1-1 in
the fourth inning, Cirelli lofted
a one-out, bases-loaded y ball
to short center eld when Grove
tagged up at second base and
began charging toward third.
Problem was, his teammate
standing on third base, Dylan
Maloney, wasnt moving.
So Grove headed back toward
second, but got trapped in a fre-
netic rundown along the way.
I tried to make the best of a
bad situation, Grove said.
It couldnt have turned out
better for Greater Pittston.
Grove stayed in the doggy
chase long enough for Maloney
to make a move toward the
plate. And not only did Maloney
score the run that put Greater
Pittston ahead for good, but
Grove also dove safely back to
second base on the play.
We were just trying to draw
a throw, and he went a little too
far, Greater Pittston manager
Jerry Ranieli said of Groves
gaffe that turned into a stroke of
genius. He did the smart thing,
he got in a doggy. He was smart
enough to stay in the doggy so
we could score the run.
That was big in this game,
Grove said. That play turned
the game around.
A little later, Grove turned his
counterpart around while scor-
ing himself on another uncon-
ventional baserunning play.
The burly catcher blasted a
run-scoring double in the sixth
inning to give Greater Pittston
a 3-1 lead, then charged toward
the home on Cirellis two-out
single. When he found the plate
blocked by Jersey Shore catcher
Eric Huling just as the throw
was arriving, Grove unleashed a
hard slide that knocked Huling
across the batters box to score
Greater Pittstons fourth run.
Im a catcher, Ive experi-
enced that play myself, Grove
said. He was blocking the plate.
I just slid as hard as I can.
A little too hard to suit Jersey
Shores fans, who expressed out-
rage over the violent collision.
I saw it as a good baseball
play, Ranieli said. The catcher
even said, Thats the job. He
(Grove) went at the plate, slid
feet-rst. Theyre not supposed
to block the plate without the
ball.
Im not a dirty player, Grove
said. I got him with the slide.
I crossed my legs back and just
tried to get to the base.
Cirelli got the bottom of
Greater Pittstons lineup going,
as his second RBI scored Grove.
Then Cirelli scored two runs on
his own from the eighth spot in
the batting order, coming home
on an error in that sixth inning
and scoring on a elders choice
in Greater Pittstons two-run
eighth.
The guy ahead of him in the
order, Justin Martinelli, also
had two singles, scored a run in
the eighth inning and knocked
Greater Pittstons rst one in
during the fourth.
This is a team tournament,
Ranieli said. Your 2, 3 and 4
hitters arent going to carry you
all the time. You need everyone
in the lineup. Thats how you
win these regionals, these big
tournaments.
Greater Pittston won with
a great game from Granteed,
who worked a complete-game
six-hitter while striking out
10. He was touched for one
unearned run in the third
inning, and didnt allow another
until Greater Pittston had built
a 7-1 lead by the bottom of the
eighth.
He was dealing it, Grove
said. I played high school ball
with him at Wyoming Area, hes
really come together as a pitch-
er in the last couple years. He
came out to play today.
From so many angles, he
had them off-balance, Ranieli
said of Granteed. They had no
idea what was coming or where
it was coming from.
It all had Greater Pittston
going into a rematch with 23-0
Swoyersville, which won two
one-run games when the teams
played during the Wyoming
Valley leagues regular season.
Were going for Swoyersville
(today), the 23-0 team, Grove
said.

The Associated Press
NEW YORK Matt Harvey
struck out 10 in seven over-
powering innings, and David
Wright and Juan Lagares each
hit a home run upheld by
video review to lead the New
York Mets over Philadelphia
Phillies 5-0 on Sunday.
Marlon Byrd followed
Wrights rst-inning homer off
the dark metal railing atop the
new left-eld wall with a no-
doubter into the second deck
against Cliff Lee (10-4) for the
Mets rst back-to-back hom-
ers of the season.
Lagares drive that also
struck the railing in left was
a three-run shot, giving New
York a 5-0 lead against the
2008 AL Cy Young Award
winner. Lagares made a run-
ning catch in center eld with
Delmon Young on third base in
the seventh to help preserve
the shutout.
In his rst outing since
starting the All-Star game on
his home mound, Harvey (8-2)
allowed three hits in his 30th
career start.
Phillies All-Star Domonic
Brown struck out all four
times up.
Pirates 3, Reds 2
CINCINNATI Jeff Locke
allowed only an ineld sin-
gle through six innings and
Pittsburgh beat Homer Bailey
to salvage the nal game of its
series with Cincinnati.
The second-place Pirates left
town with a three-game cush-
ion over the NL Central-rival
Reds, who won the rst two
games of the series.
Locke (9-2) and the majors
second-stingiest bullpen lim-
ited the Reds to three singles,
but issued seven walks and let
a run score on a wild pitch.
Jason Grilli worked the ninth
for his 30th save in 31 chances.
Locke had to miss his last
scheduled start and couldnt
pitch in the All-Star game
because of a sore back. There
were no problems when he got
back on the mound.
Bailey (5-9) struck out a
career-high 12 but remained
winless since his no-hitter
against San Francisco at Great
American Ball Park on July 2.
Garrett Jones hit his second
homer in two games.
Dodgers 9, Nationals 2
WASHINGTON Matt
Kemp returned to the lineup
with a home run and a double
in the same inning Sunday,
and the Los Angeles Dodgers
completed a sweep of the
Washington Nationals.
Activated from the 15-day
disabled list before the game,
Kemp led off the second with
a homer and then doubled
home Andre Ethier in a sev-
en-run inning against Jordan
Zimmermann (12-5), quickly
turning a much-anticipated
matchup of All-Star aces into
a rout.
Cardinals 3, Padres 2
ST. LOUIS Adam
Wainwright worked eight
sharp innings for his National
League-leading 13th win and
Allen Craig ended the game
with a leaping catch at the left-
eld wall as St. Louis beat San
Diego.

CHICAGO Left elder
Casper Wells robbed Reed
Johnson of a home run in
the eighth inning to help the
White Sox beat the Braves.
With the White Sox leading
3-1, Wells leaped up against
the left-eld wall to make a
spectacular catch and rob
Johnson of the game-tying
homer. It was one of several
great defensive plays by the
White Sox.
Alex Rios added two hits
and an RBI for Chicago and
Jose Quintana scattered nine
hits in 5 2-3 innings.

The Associated Press
ANAHEIM, Calif. Bartolo
Colon pitched a four-hitter for
his third shutout this season and
center elder Coco Crisp robbed
Albert Pujols of a home run to help
the Oakland Athletics beat the Los
Angeles Angels 6-0 on Sunday.
Eric Sogard hit a two-run homer
to back Colon (13-3), who struck
out ve and walked one. The
40-year-old right-hander, making
his rst start since returning from
his third All-Star game, tied Max
Scherzer and Adam Wainwright
for the major league lead in wins
while reducing his ERA to 2.52.
Colon is 10-1 with a 1.46 ERA over
his last 12 outings.
Rays 4, Blue Jays 3
TORONTO Luke Scott and
Kelly Johnson hit back-to-back
home runs, Evan Longoria also
went deep and the Rays survived
a late scare to beat the Blue Jays,
completing a three-game sweep.
The surging Rays have won 13 of
their past 14 games and 20 of their
past 24. After starting the sea-
son 14-18, Tampa Bay is a major
league-best 44-23 since May 8.
Rays right-hander Chris Archer
pitched seven innings to win his
fourth straight decision, improv-
ing to 4-0 with an 1.62 ERA in his
past six starts, including his rst
career shutout against Houston on
July 14.
Tigers 4, Royals 1
KANSAS CITY, Mo. Miguel
Cabrera and Andy Dirks homered
as the Tigers beat the Royals to
avoid being swept.
Doug Fister (8-5) picked up the
victory with six strong innings,
yielding a run, while allowing six
hits and striking out ve and walk-
ing one.
Cabrera, who is second in the
league with 31 home runs to Chris
Davis of the Baltimore Orioles,
drove a 1-1 pitch out to left in the
rst inning.
Indians 7, Twins 1
MINNEAPOLIS Justin
Masterson took a no-hit bid
into the seventh inning, Michael
Brantley hit a bases-loaded triple
and the Indians beat the Twins to
avoid a three-game sweep.
Masterson (11-7) had faced
the minimum through six, allow-
ing only a hit batter, when Brian
Dozier led off the seventh with a
broken-bat blooper to center eld
that dunked in under the glove of
a sliding Drew Stubbs for a double.
Mariners 12, Astros 5
HOUSTON Nick Franklin
hit his rst career grand slam
in Seattles big second inning to
back up a scoreless start by Felix
Hernandez, and the Mariners
rolled past the Astros for their
season-best sixth straight victory.

ABOVE: RailRiders pitcher Jose Ramirez delivers a pitch to Louisville batter Kristopher Negron in the second inning of play Sunday at PNC Field. BELOW:
Louisvilles Josh Fellhauer is caught in a rundown between first and second bases as RailRiders infielder David Adams chases him. Adams applied the tag in
the third inning for an out.
right eld putting Louisville
ahead 3-0.
Louisville starter Daniel
Corcino, who is the fourth-best
prospect for Cincinnati accord-
ing to Baseball America, had
struggled so far in Triple-A,
enteringSundays game withthe
worst ERA in the International
League at 6.40 and the second-
most losses in the league with
11 and having allowed 47
walks in 90 innings.
But he was cruising along
and gave the RailRiders a boat-
load of problems. SWB didnt
get anything going against the
22-year-old right-hander until
Adams drew a one-out walk
in the third. He scored when
the next hitter J.R. Murphy
doubled to get the team on the
board and trim the decit to
3-1. Corcino only gave up two
hits and the SWB offense only
picked up four on the afternoon.
He kept his sinkers in,
sliders away and he got us to
chase a lot of pitches, Adams
said about Corcino. It didnt
seem like we were too patient.
It seemed like if we got any-
thing to hit we were swinging.
Maybe thats why we didnt
have the best approach today.
But you know what, he did a
pretty good job.
Ramirez, who struggled in
the rst inning, rebounded
nicely from that rough patch.
The rest of the time he was on
the mound he threw 15 in the
second, 20 in the third, nine in
the fourth and six in the fth,
ending his afternoon with 80
pitches. He gave up three runs
on six hits and two walks, and
only fanned two. But he threw
a rst-pitch strike to 14 of the
20 batters he faced.
He was good as usual once
we got through the rst couple
innings and then he settled
down, Murphy said. I was
doing everything I could to get
him through that rst inning.
He didnt make
any adjust-
ments until
late in the rst
inning then
carried it over
throughout the
rest of his out-
ing.
With Josh
Spence on the
mound in the
seventh, the
Bats scratched
out another run
with Hamilton
doubling in a baserunner for a
4-1 lead.

Froome
From page 1B
Wiggins in 2012 and now
Froome, a cooler, calmer, more
understated but no less deter-
mined character than his Sky
teammate with famous side-
burns.
Froome rode into Paris in
style: Riders pedaled up to
him to offer congratulations;
he sipped from a ute of cham-
pagne; a Tour organizer stuck
an arm from his car window
to shake Froomes hand. He
dedicated his victory to his late
mother, Jane, who died in 2008.
Without her encourage-
ment to follow my dreams I
would probably be at home
watching on TV, he said.
Froome took the race lead
on Stage 8 in the Pyrenees,
never relinquished it and
vigorously fended off rivals
whose concerted challenges
turned this 100th Tour into a
thriller. Froome and his Sky
teammates linked arms as they
rode for the line.
This is a beautiful country
with the nest annual sporting
event on the planet. To win
the 100th edition is an honor
beyond any Ive dreamed, he
said.
Five-time winners Eddy
Merckx, Bernard Hinault and
Miguel Indurain joined Froome
on the podium. Missing,
of course, was Armstrong.
Stripping the serial doper
of his seven wins tore a hole
in the Tours roll of honor as
large as that left by World War
II, when the race didnt take
place from 1940-46.
None of the 100th editions
podium nishers Froome,
Nairo Quintana and Joaquim
Rodriguez have ever failed
a drug test or been directly
implicated in any of cyclings
litany of doping scandals. That
is an encouraging and nota-
ble departure both from the
Armstrong era and many other
Tour podiums before and since.
In a way, Im glad that
Ive had to face those ques-
tions. That after all the rev-
elations last year and just the
tarnished history over the
last decade, all thats been
channeled toward me now,
Froome said. I feel Ive been
able to deal with it reasonably
well throughout this Tour, and
hopefully thats sent a strong
message to the cycling world
that the sport has changed
and it really has. The pelotons
standing together, the riders
are united and its not going to
be accepted anymore.
Froomes clear physical
superiority made him over-
whelming favorite going into
the Tour and carried him
through it. His winning mar-
gin of 4 minutes, 20 seconds
was the largest since 1997,
when Jan Ullrich who has
since admitted to doping
beat Richard Virenque who
also confessed to using perfor-
mance-enhancers by 9:09.

MOOSIC Yankees third
baseman Alex Rodriguez did
not play for the RailRiders
on Sunday, the last day of his
20-day rehab program.
Rodriguez, who switched
from third base to designated
hitter late before Saturday
nights game, said afterwards
that he felt tightness in his left
quad and that Sunday could be
a day of treatment.
Rodriguez left the club-
house Sunday morning prior
to the game and his locker was
cleared out after the contest.
The Yankees released a state-
ment early Sunday stating the
soon-to-be 38-year-old would
head to New York and get an
MRI on his leg before activat-
ing him from the disabled list.
He is currently scheduled to
join the Yankees either today
or tomorrow in Texas.
The Associated Press report-
ed the Yankees issued an email
to their beat reporters Sunday
night saying Rodriguez will
not be joining the team for
its series in Texas. It did not
say when Rodriguez would be
activated or if hell remain on
the DL.
Rodriguez, who did not
address the media prior to
Sundays game at PNC Field,
ends his rehab stint 8 for
40 (.200 average) with two
home runs and eight RBI.
For Scranton/Wilkes-Barre in
three games, he went 3 for 12
with a homer and three RBI.
He may have injured the leg
on Friday after sliding into
second base trying to stretch a
single into a double on his sec-
ond of two hits in that game.
Thats what I woke up
thinking, Rodriguez said
Saturday night. Its the rst
time I slid like that in a long
time in a game.

GREENSBORO, N.C.
The Atlantic Coast
Conference is settling
into a period of stability it
helped create. Syracuse and
Pittsburgh are nally here,
Notre Dame is partly in, and
Louisville will arrive soon.
So as the league on
Sunday held the rst of
its two-day preseason
football extravaganza,
it did so with the focus
squarely on the eld.
The composition of the
long-term membership of
the ACC has never been
stronger, Commissioner
John Swofford said.
Thats thanks to the
new grant-of-rights agree-
ment that pumped the
brakes on realignment,
basically locks in the
current members and
Louisville until 2027,
and publicly secured
our position as one of the
nations premier confer-
ences, Swofford said.
The commissioner said
if Notre Dame ever choos-
es to place its ercely
independent football pro-
gram in a league before
2026-27, that conference
by contractual agreement
would be the (ACC).
He also says the bas-
ketball-centric ACC has
unlimited potential in
football.
And the league cer-
tainly could take steps to
realize that potential if its
marquee programs per-
form up to expectations.
Florida State claimed
just the ACCs second
win in a BCS bowl since
the 1999 season when it
beat Northern Illinois in
the Orange Bowl. And the
players hope that victory
helped answer the nag-
ging question of whether
the Seminoles who
won two national titles in
the 1990s are back.
I dont think we ever
really left, receiver
Rashad Greene said. We
always came up short
here or there, but its our
job to be consistent. As
long as we stay consis-
tent throughout the sea-
son and have that goal in
mind, well do just ne.
Virginia Tech has been
the preseason pick to win
the Coastal Division in
seven of eight years since
the league split into divi-
sions, and the Hokies will
nd out Monday when
the ACCs preseason picks
are announced if they
were picked to do it again.
And Clemson and
2012 ACC player of
the year Tajh Boyd
knocked off LSU in the
Chick-l-A Bowl in one
of the most memorable
matchups of last postsea-
son.
If Boyd is feeling any
external pressure to fol-
low that one up, he cer-
tainly isnt showing it.
He walked into his
media session with a
beaming smile, and the
rst question he faced
during the Q-and-A came
from teammate Spencer
Shuey who talked the
QB into serenading the
table with a country song.
The more you start to
mature and the older you
get, the more important
some things are, Boyd
said. This is my fth
year (at Clemson) and
it all comes down to ve
months. So its all about
embracing every oppor-
tunity every practice,
every workout, every
time we step onto that
eld. Its all about me
just running out there try-
ing to live for the moment
and enjoying it.
Syracuse and Pitt made
their rst appearances at
the ACC Kickoff, trading
in the annual summer-
time Rhode Island clam-
bake that was a Big East
staple for this visit to cen-
tral North Carolina.
This will mark the only
season in this congura-
tion of the ACC because
Maryland is leaving next
year for the Big Ten.
Louisville is on track to
step in for the Terrapins.
ACC settling into period of stability
Game No. 101 of the season didnt
go so well for the RailRiders, as
Louisville starter Daniel Corcino
pitched 5 2-3 solid innings leading
the Bats to a 4-1 victory on Sunday
afternoon at PNC Field. Scranton/
Wilkes-Barres record fell to 49-52
with just 43 games left on the
schedule.
RailRiders at the plate: They
mustered only four hits, which
included doubles by J.R. Murphy,
Adonis Garcia and Ronnier
Mustelier. Murphys two-bagger
drove in David Adams for the lone
run.
RailRiders on the mound: Jose
Ramirez made an improvement
fromhis last start going fve
innings, giving up three runs on
six hits while fanning two. In his
previous start, he lasted just 1 1-3
innings. Josh Spence made his
frst appearance since July 12 and
pitched two innings allowing one
run, but he struck out four. Dellin
Betances fnished of the contest
with another strong outing piling
up four punch-outs in two innings
and only giving up one hit.
Riding the Rails: Sundays starter
Jose Ramirez was activated from
the disabled list prior to the game.
Reliever Francisco Rondon was
transferred to Double-ATrenton.
Attendance: 7,294 (The season
attendance total so far stands

(AP) Florida line-
backer Antonio Morrison
has been suspended for at
least the rst two games
of the regular season after
being arrested for the sec-
ond time in ve weeks.
Morrison was arrested
early Sunday for barking
at a police dog and resist-
ing arrest. Both charges
are misdemeanors.
The sophomore from
Bolingbrook, Ill., also was
arrested June 16 for alleg-
edly punching a bouncer.
He received deferred prose-
cution on the simple battery
charged, a deal in which he
was ordered to stay out of
trouble for six months.
According to the Alachua
County Sheriffs Ofce,
Morrison walked up to an
open window on a police
car and barked at a K-9
dog named Bear. The dog
responded by barking back,
prompting an ofcer to
arrest Morrison for inter-
fering with a police canine.
According to the arresting
ofcer, Morrisons actions
diverted the canines atten-
tion from my investigation
and towards him.
Ofcers said Morrison
resisted attempts to hand-
cuff him. Morrison told
ofcers he made a woof-
woof sound at Bear
because the dog barked
at him.

GULLANE, Scotland
Tiger Woods kept star-
ing incredulously at the
ball when it veered off
in odd directions, when it
stopped rolling far from
the cup.
It was as though Woods
had suddenly forgotten
how to read a putt.
Woods latest chance to
end the longest drought
of his career slipped away
Sunday at the BritishOpen,
where Phil Mickelson won
the claret jug with one of
the greatest closing rounds
in major championship his-
tory.
For Woods, it was
another mystifying show-
ing by a guy who used to
produce that sort of magic
fairly regularly. He once
was considered a lock
to break Jack Nicklaus
record in golf s biggest
events, yet the number of
titles remains stuck at 14
four shy of the Golden
Bear and right where its
been since Woods last
signicant triumph at the
2008 U.S. Open.
He started the day just
two strokes behind 54-hole
leader Lee Westwood, but
it fell apart pretty quickly.
An ugly three-putt at No.
1 was the start of his mis-
ery, and Woods was at 3
over for the round by the
time he walked off the
sixth green.
Though he remained on
the fringe of contention
all day, he never got to
the top of the board.
Instead, it was
Mickelson surging into
contention and then run-
ning away with the title,
posting a 5-under 66 that
matched the lowest round
of the week and carried
him to a three-stroke win.
Woods staggered to the
nish with a 74, ve shots
in arrears of the winner.
It didnt even seem that
close, thanks to a dismal
performance with the
putter. Woods needed
33 swipes with the short
stick to get around the
course. Only six of the 84
players used it more.
I had a hard time adjust-
ing to the speeds, Woods
said. They were much
slower today, much soft-
er. I dont think I got too
many putts to the hole.
Even so, he didnt
sound all that impressed
with Mickelsons round,
which matched the best
score of the week and left
him as the only player to
break par overall.
While everyone else
gushed over Lefty mak-
ing four birdies in the last
six holes, Woods said:
Its certainly gettable
out there. The greens are
slower and if you have the
feel to hit it far enough
up there into the greens,
you can get it done. You
can shoot between 3 and
5 under par.
As for Mickelson, he
added, Evidently he got
a pretty good feel for it
and made a few putts.
Woods seems to have
made up with Steve
Williams, the longtime
caddie he dumped a few
years ago in a bitter split.
Williams now works for
Adam Scott, Woods play-
ing partner Sunday. When
it was over, the Woods
and Williams shook
hands on the green, with
Woods even giving him a
little pat on the shoulder.
Woods played with Lee
Westwood the day before,
and it was actually late
in their back-and-forth
duel that the fade began.
They were tied for the
lead going to the 17th
hole, with Woods poised
to hold at least a share of
it going to the nal round
of a major for the rst
time since the 2009 PGA
Championship.
But he knocked his
second shot in a fairway
bunker and took bogey,
while Westwood rolled in
a birdie to take a two-shot
lead. That was the decit
when Woods teed off in
the next-to-last group.
He never got any closer.

GULLANE, Scotland
Adam Scotts collapse
in the nal round at the
British Open wasnt near-
ly as spectacular as it was
a year ago.
The end result was still
the same.
For the second year in
a row Scott held the lead
on the back nine; for the
second year in a row he
left without his name on
the claret jug.
Even the green jacket
he won in between at the
Masters couldnt ease the
sting of this one.
I think the disappoint-
ing thing is this one I felt
I wasted a little bit, Scott
said Sunday. I would
have liked to be in at the
end and no one was, actu-
ally. Its a shame.
No one was because
Phil Mickelson closed so
strongly he likely would
have won the Open no
matter what Scott or any
of his fellow competitors
did. But three straight
bogeys on the back nine
sealed the fate of the
Masters champion, elimi-
nating him from conten-
tion before he even had a
shot at making a late run.
I let a great chance
slip, I felt, during the
middle of the round and
thats disappointing,
Scott said. Had I played
a little more solid in the
middle of that back nine
I could have had a chance
coming in.
Playing in the next-
to-last group with Tiger
Woods, Scott made a run
at the lead when he sank
a long putt on the eighth
hole for birdie, then fol-
lowed it with a two-putt
birdie on the par-5 ninth.
When he added yet anoth-
er birdie on the short
par-4 11th he was sudden-
ly in the lead with seven
holes to go.
Nothing new there.
Last year at the Open
at Lytham, Scott had a
four-shot lead with four
holes to play and all that
seemed left to do was pre-
pare his victory speech.
It quickly unraveled,
though, with Scott n-
ishing with a string of
bogeys in one of the great
collapses in golng histo-
ry. The image of his knees
buckling when he missed
a 7-foot putt to force a
playoff with Ernie Els lin-
gers still.
Compared to that,
Sundays back nine mis-
steps paled by compari-
son. Once again, though,
Scott began making
bogeys and soon someone
else was holding the Open
trophy.

SYLVANIA, Ohio
The head-to-head duel
between Beatriz Recari
and Paula Creamer in
the nal round of the
Marathon Classic on
Sunday was great theater.
Dont be surprised if
theres a sequel.
Recari rolled in a
12-foot birdie putt on the
14th hole to take the lead
for good and hung on to
hold off Creamer for her
third LPGA Tour title.
They started the day
tied and spent most of
the day trading the lead
as if it were match
play. The duel in the heat
in suburban Toledo might
have been foreshadow-
ing for when both play-
ers participate in next
months Solheim Cup at
the Colorado Golf Club,
Recari for the European
side and Paula Creamer
for the United States.
Back and forth, back
and forth, Recari said of
their Sunday showdown.
It totally felt like the
Solheim Cup.
Recari and Creamer, who
won the tournament then
known as the Jamie Farr
Toledo Classic ve years
ago, started the day tied
for rst, three shots ahead
of their nearest pursuers.
They traded the lead
never separated by more
than one stroke and
were still even until Recari
birdied the par-3 14th.
The 26-year-old Recari
closed with a 5-under 66
to nish at 17-under 267.
She missed a 6-foot bird-
ie putt on the 17th, but
made a clutch 5-footer for
par at the 18th.
Creamer, who was seek-
ing her 10th career win and
rst since the 2010 U.S.
Womens Open, nished
with a 67. She said she gave
it everything she had.
My goodness, there
were so many great shots
played today, Creamer
said. Do I wish I could go
back and maybe change a
couple of things here and
there? Yes. But I played
great. Beatriz just played
one shot better.
Jodi Ewart Shadoff
(66) shared third place
at 13 under with Lexi
Thompson, who shot a 67
and had a hole-in-one that
won the 18-year-old a car.
Austin wins playoff
MADISON, Miss.
Woody Austin won the
Sanderson Farms Classic
for his rst PGA Tour vic-
tory since 2007, beating
Cameron Beckman and
Daniel Summerhays with
an 8-foot birdie putt on
the rst hole of a playoff.
The 49-year-old Austin
is the eighth oldest win-
ner in PGA Tour history
and the oldest since Fred
Funk won at 50 in 2007.
Austin came into the
nal round two shots
behind Summerhays and
Nicholas Thompson, but
made up ground with a
5- under 67 to nish at
20-under 268. Beckman
and Summerhays both
birdied No. 18 to match
Austin, and Beckman
missed a 5-foot putt that
would have forced a sec-
ond playoff hole.

Logano held off Sam
Hornish Jr. to win the
NASCAR Nationwide race
at Chicagoland Speedway
on Sunday.
Logano, the lone
Sprint Cup regular in the
race, earned his second
Nationwide win of the
year and No. 20 for his
career. He also won at
Dover in June.
Hornish held on for
second, giving car owner
Roger Penske the top
two spots. Austin Dillon
nished third, earning a
$100,000 bonus.
Elliott Sadler had the
lead on a restart with 24
laps remaining. But the
defending race winner
faded as Hornish moved
in front on the track
where he won an IndyCar
race in 2002.
Hornish looked in posi-
tion to secure the victory
when Logano roared into
the lead and went on to
the victory while the rest
of the Sprint Cup drivers
took the weekend off.
Sadler nished fourth,
and was followed by Brian
Vickers, Parker Kligerman
and Trevor Bayne. Illinois
native Justin Allgaier,
Brad Sweet and Matt
Crafton rounded out
the top 10 in the rst
Nationwide stop of the
year at Chicagoland.
The series returns in
September on the same
weekend that the Chase
for the Sprint Cup cham-
pionship begins at the
track.
Sadler and Regan Smith
did not see very much of
each other one week after
their collision at New
Hampshire led to a mid-
week phone call to clear
the air. Sadler confronted
Smith right after the race,
promising he would not
win the series title, and
then said he would race
the No. 7 Chevrolet differ-
ently in the future.

From page 1B
At the end of a rough-and-
tumble week along the Firth of
Forth, Mickelson was the only
player under par at 3-under
283. In his four other majors
three Masters and one PGA
Championship he had never
started the nal round more than
one shot behind.
I dont care either way how
I got this trophy I got it,
Mickelson said. And it just so
happened to be with one of the
best rounds of my career, which
is really the way Ive played my
entire career. Ive always tried
to go out and get it. I dont want
anybody to hand it to me. I want
to go out and get it. And today,
I did.
Westwood, whose only other
54-hole lead in a major ended
with Mickelson winning the
Masters, paid tribute to Lefty for
what will go down as one of the
great closing rounds in a major.
When you birdie four of the
last six of a round any day, thats
good going, Westwood said.
With a decent breeze blowing
and some tough ags out there,
its obviously a pretty good expe-
rience. When you do it in a major
championship, its an even better
experience.
But this major? Phil Mickelson?
He had only contended twice
in two decades at golf s oldest
championship. One week after
he won the Scottish Open in a
playoff on the links-styled course
of Castle Stuart, Mickelson was
simply magical on the back nine
of a brown, brittle Muireld
course that hasnt played this
tough since 1966.
Tied for the lead, Mickelson
smashed a 3-wood onto the
green at the par-5 17th to about
25 feet for a two-putt birdie, and
nished in style with a 10-foot
birdie putt on the 18th to match
the lowest score of this champi-
onship.
Those two 3-woods were the
two best shots of the week, to
get it on that green, Mickelson
said. As I was walking up to the
green, that was when I realized
that this is very much my cham-
pionship in my control. And I
was getting a little emotional. I
had to kind of take a second to
slow down my walk and try to
regain composure.
Mickelson gured a par on
the 18th would be tough for any-
one to catch him. When the ball
dropped in the center of the cup,
he raised both arms in the air to
celebrate his fth career major,
tying him with the likes of Seve
Ballesteros and Byron Nelson.
Best round Ive ever seen
him play, said his caddie, Jim
Bones Mackay.
His nal surge was right about
the time Westwood and Scott
began to fold.
Scott, trying to join an exclu-
sive list of players who have won
a green jacket and a claret jug in
the same year, made a remark-
able recovery from the dunes
right of the par-3 13th hole, only
to miss the 7-foot par putt. He
took three putts for bogeys on
the next two holes from long
range on the 14th, and from 20
feet on the 15th and found a
bunker on the next.
Westwood started to lose his
grip on the jug with bogeys on
the seventh and eighth, and
failing to birdie the downwind,
par-5 ninth. Presented with
birdie chances early on the back
nine, his putting stroke began to
look tentative.
Westwood and Scott tied
for third with Ian Poulter, who
played a four-hole stretch in
5-under around the turn and
closed with a 67. At 1-over 285,
he canceled a ight home in case
of a playoff. Moments later, with
Mickelson pulling away, the out-
come was clear.

Chicago Tribune
CHICAGO The
sound quality will remind
you of lectures you taped
in college with your own
microcassette recorder.
The rhythms range from
casual moments to elabo-
rate put-ons in the man-
ner Kaufman favored.
You can hear Kaufman
pretend to have an angry
dialogue with what might
be a squealing pig. You can
even hear him debrieng a
woman he just slept with,
and her disbelief that he
actually wants to record
what she has to say about
his performance.
You didnt even look
like you were enjoying it,
he tells her. Later, he asks,
How would you feel if I
put this on a record?
The 17-track, 48-min-
ute record Andy and His
Grandmother, released
Tuesday on the Drag City
label, is also an oddly com-
pelling thing. Its another
window into the man who
would lip-sync to childrens
records on stage, throw
himself into the role of a
pro wrestling bad guy and,
in his most mainstream
persona, play the immi-
grant cab mechanic Latka
on the sitcom Taxi.
On the record, Kaufman
taunts a cop giving him a
ticket: You know Im not
gonna pay it. Im gonna
make a fool of you. And he
has one apparent girlfriend
call another, after trying
to stir up trouble between
them. Another woman
then accuses him of try-
ing to provoke ghts so
you can put it on your tape
recorder. It is, she says,
all for the tape recorder.
Yet the man who culled
through the 82 hours of
recordings Kaufman made
between 1977 and 1979
says that whats most strik-
ing about them, as a whole,
is that you never saw a ver-
sion of Kaufman that stood
at a remove from his art.
The weirdest thing
was that the view of him
that I hoped was true was
actually conrmed, says
Vernon Chatman, himself
a comedy provocateur
whose TV writing and
producing credits include
South Park and Louie.
I always had this nagging
feeling that at some point
the real Andy, a person
whos a little more cynical
or calculating, is behind
there. But there was never
any sense of cynicism.
And somehow this held
true, Chatman contends,
whether Kaufman was
talking to his grandmother
about making tapes, his
sister about having sex or a
hooker about trying to take
her out on a date.
My guess is he just
never got to this point
of cynicism. He had this
arrested sense of wonder,
Chatman says. The engine
of what he was doing he
kept pure.
Chatman came to the
project because of his com-
edy chops, because he was a
Kaufman buff and because
Drag City had put out, as
a DVD, this strange lm I
made called Final Flesh.
Says Chatman in the liner
notes to Andy and His
Grandmother: I was so
offended at how disrespect-
ful and impossible the very
notion was that I immedi-
ately agreed to do it.
Drag City, whose most
popular artists include
Bonnie Prince Billy, got
involved because of friend-
ships between its execu-
tives and the people who
run Process Media, a West
Coast publishing house
with a reputation for spot-
lighting quirky hidden his-
tories. In 2009, Process put
out Dear Andy Kaufman,
I Hate Your Guts! a col-
lection of letters Kaufman
received after he taunted
women over what he
claimed was their inability
to defeat him at wrestling.
In the midst of talk-
ing to Lynne Margulies,
Kaufmans girlfriend and
chronicler, for that book,
Jodi Wille of Process
Media learned about the
box of microcassettes.
And Jodi suggested
(Lynne) pass them on to
us, says Rian Murphy,
Drag Citys sales manager.
Not only were we big
fans of Andy Kaufman, but
were a record label with a
little bit of experience in
terms of putting out come-
dy, unconventional things.
The project took the
better part of three years,
and a lot of the time there
was work being done,
Murphy says.
Chatman, based in
New York, never saw the
actual shoe box, he says.
He worked with digital
copies of the recordings
and says he felt fortunate
that on the very rst tape
Kaufman discusses his new
microcassette recorder, a
cutting-edge technology
at the time, and how he
intended to make an album
with it called Andy and
His Grandmother.
Kaufman fnally

Chicago Tribune
SAN DIEGO (AP) There werent any kills
at the nal panel for Dexter at Comic-Con, but
there were some tears.
Dexter actresses Jennifer Carpenter and
Lauren Velez held back the waterworks as they
expressed their gratitude to fans gathered inside
the San Diego Convention Center for the pop-
culture convention.
Youre the reason we showup every day, said
Carpenter, who plays Deb, the conicted sister
of loveable serial killer Dexter Morgan. We
want to do right by you because your standards
are high, and you deserve good work, so it cant
be a wrap until were all here together, especially
for those who waited to be in this room.
Many of the Dexter devotees had camped
out for a chance to see Michael C. Hall and the
rest of the cast, who nished production on the
eighth and nal season of the Showtime drama
last week.
Just as you all waited in line and are here for
us, we have been here for you, and we are here
because of you, said Hall.
The panel served as a reunion for past
Dexter actors whose characters have died on
the show, including Velez, Erik King and Julie
Benz.
Its ending on a high note, and thats what
you want to see in television, but its sad to see
it go, said Benz, who played Dexters girlfriend,
Rita Bennett, for four seasons.
The cast and crew were tightlipped on how
the show will end later this year.
But the cast shared what they took from
the set after production wrapped. Hall swiped
Dexters watch and a 9-foot piece of the railing
outside his apartment; Harrington pocketed
Joseph Quinns gold chains; Yvonne Strahovski
took Hannah McKays black orchid; David Zayas
grabbed Bautistas hat; and Carpenter eeced
several items, including blood splatter images
from Dexters lab.

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

O N T H E W E B
Dear Abby: My
husband retired and
we thought we were
fulfilling our lifetime
dream when we
moved to the beach,
but our dream has
turned into a night-
mare. Our family never wanted to
visit us this often before.
When they come, no one even
brings along so much as a bottle of
water. My grocery bill has skyrock-
eted, and Im sick of playing the role
of cook and maid while they have a
wonderful time.
Im ready to move back to our
hometown. At least there I had a
life besides cooking and cleaning.
My husband wants to live here be-
cause its his dream, but I cant take
another year of this. The workload is
killing me.
I have been a fool for putting up
with everyone having a carefree vaca-
tion at my expense. Im so angry Im
ready to leave my husband with his
dream. The last three years have been
hell. When friends and family ask
why I left, should I tell them, or keep
my mouth shut and build a peaceful
life by myself?
Running For My Life
Dear Running: Leaving your husband
is not the solution. Telling the indi-
viduals who are taking advantage of
your hospitality that the rules have
changed is. Set rules before guests
arrive. If its not convenient for you to
entertain, speak up and say so when
the relatives call to say theyre com-
ing. Make it clear that they will be
doing their own laundry, buying their
own groceries, etc.
And while youre at it, understand
that the reason this has gotten out of
hand is partly your husbands fault.
Hes retired; he can lend a hand.
The Good Lord gave you the gift
of speech. For the sake of your sanity
and your marriage, Im suggesting
you use it.
Dear Abby: Seven years ago, I was in
a relationship with a man I thought
was my soul mate. (Ill call him Lou-
is.) We were together for two years
and had planned on getting married
right after college. Louis ended up
breaking the engagement and six
months later married another wom-
an. I was shocked and heartbroken.
We went our separate ways.
Louis contacted me recently. He
apologized for the past and said he
was out of his mind for losing me. He
also said he was recently divorced
and wants to see me to catch up.
I have healed from the heartache
and moved on, but I am not currently
in a relationship. I am content with
my life. The problem is, my curios-
ity and my heart are tripping me up.
Im wary of falling back in love with
Louis and dont want to reopen any
old wounds.
What do you think, Abby? Should
I meet him and see what happens, or
let the past stay where it is?
Over Him? in New York
Dear Over Him?: Louis may be a
cad or he may have become more
mature in the last seven years. Be-
cause you are curious, I think you
should go. But if he starts wooing
you again, do not get serious unless
you have had couples counseling. Its
important that you clearly understand
what went wrong in your romance
the first time so it doesnt happen
again.
DEAR ABBY

To receive a collection of Abbys most
memorable and most frequently re-
quested poems and essays, send a busi-
ness-sized, self-addressed envelope, plus

Canada) to: Dear Abbys Keepers, P.O.
Box 447, Mount Morris, IL 61054-0447.
(Postage is included.)
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Youll
be exploring a territory without
a map. This approach will give
you the advantage of being free
of other peoples opinions and
perceptions.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Your
heart is big, but not every situ-
ation requires you to be overly
giving. Business goes better
when you tend to the deal and
dont get too wrapped up in the
personal aspects.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Our sens-
es break up the big picture into
sizeable chunks we can under-
stand. Try not to make assump-
tions based on one sensation,
though, or youll be incorrect.
Collect loads and loads of data.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). You
are ready for a new approach.
Instead of treating the symp-
toms, go right to the source of
the problem. There is an earth
sign (Taurus, Virgo or Capricorn)
who can help you with this.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). When you
know something in your gut, it is
true more often than intellectual
knowledge tends to be. Your
gut hasnt developed in such a
way as to debate itself.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You do
not discriminate against people
because they are different from
you. You see their similarities
and try to relate and help how-
ever you can. However, this all
changes if you dont feel safe.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You like
to save money, but today youre
in the mood to go even deeper
with your bargain hunting. There
are deals out there just begging
to be hunted.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Youll
have a sense that a story isnt
adding up. Maybe this is even
a story you tell yourself. Seek
truth. Ask deeper questions.
Youre willing to see more now.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
A remedy that doesnt work for
most people will work for you.
You are among the people who
will actually follow the plan step
by step until you see the results
you want.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
Wise people dont draw atten-
tion to their own wisdom, nor do
mighty people draw attention
to their power. It takes a secure
person to be humble. Trust the
one who makes modest claims
and overdelivers on them.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You
are not completely satisfied in a
relationship, but this may very
well be what keeps you striving
for a better connection. Youll
be happier because of the effort
you make in this regard.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
Bragging is unnecessary. Hold
back, and one of two things
will happen: Either a friend will
sing your praises, or the person
youre talking to will discover
your talent soon enough and be
duly impressed.
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (July 22).
Youll give your love uncondi-
tionally, and this will truly help
someone else grow and blossom,
which fulfills a deep sense of
purpose in you. In August, youll
put on a show, give a speech
or be otherwise featured in the
spotlight. Your lucky numbers
are: 4, 40, 1, 22 and 15.
