A majority of the Luzerne
CountyCouncil decidedTuesday
to hold off on publicly releasing
thenamesandresumesof thefive
permanent manager applicants
who were interviewed in person,
but a well-placed source agreed
to disclose the information on
the condition of anonymity.
The five are: Robert Lawton,
Rio Vista, Calif.; Patrick J. Bech-
er, Oneida, N.Y.; Jeffrey I. Naftal,
Lancaster, S.C.; Michael J. Freil-
inger, Des Moines, Iowa; and Da-
vid D. Benda,

ed the council-

ed against releasing the names
last week.

WILKES-BARRE A Luzerne
County senior judge has over-
turned the death sentence of
Michael Bardo, who was con-
victed in the 1992 killing of his
3-year-old niece.
Senior Judge Patrick Toole, in
a 48-page opinion filed Tuesday
in Luzerne County Court, said
he was granting Bardos request
to vacate his
sentence be-
cause attorneys
at his trial did
not present a
wealth of avail-
able mitigating
evidence.
The judges
ruling makes
way for a new sentencing hear-
ing, where Bardo might avoid
the death penalty.
Bardo, 42, was convicted in
January 1993 of first-degree
murder and two counts of in-
decent aggravated assault for
molesting and killing his niece,
Joelle Donovan.Police said Bar-
do stuffed the girls body in a
garbage bag and threw it into
Solomon Creek in South
Wilkes-Barre.
After a penalty phase hearing,
a jury sentenced Bardo to
death, and a death warrant was
signed by then-Gov. Ed Rendell
in January 2006. Later that
month, Toole issued a stay of
execution, allowing Bardos at-
torneys time to review records
and prepare an appeal.
Attorneys James Moreno, Vic-
tor Abreu and David Osborne,
who represent Bardo through
the Defender Association of Phi-
ladelphia, have argued in recent
years that Bardo is owed a new
trial because of ineffective coun-
sel at the time of his trial.
The attorneys, who did not
return a phone call seeking
comment Tuesday, argued that
Bardos trial attorneys, Joseph
Yeager, Gino Bartolai and Wil-
liam Ruzzo, did not present evi-
dence that Bardo suffered from
mental health disorders, as well
as other contributors.
Nils Hagen-Frederiksen, depu-
ty press secretary for the state
Attorney Generals Office,
which is handling Bardos case,
said Tooles opinion is under re-
view by the offices appeals sec-
tion.

DES MOINES, Iowa Rick
Santorum and Mitt Romney
waged a seesaw battle for su-
premacy in Iowas Republican
presidential caucuses late Tues-
day night, a dramatic opening
round for the campaign to pick a
challenger to President Barack
Obama.
Texas Rep. Ron Paul ran third.
Returns from96 percent of the
states 1,774 precincts showed
Santorum, a former Pennsylva-
nia senator, and Romney, a for-
mer governor of Massachusetts,
in a near
dead heat,
a fitting
conclusion
to a race as
jumbled as
any since
Iowa
gained the lead-off position in
presidential campaigns four dec-
ades ago.
Regardless of the outcome,
there was enough for both to
claima victory Romney as the
man to beat for the partys nomi-

er among those struggling to
emerge as the former governors

NANTICOKE Only one per-
son among the estimated 50 pa-
trons inside the Prospect Street
Caf came to the aid of Jennifer
Mieczkowski when she was vi-
ciouslyattackedwitha boxcutter
during a brawl inside the tavern
early Sunday morning, police
said.
Mieczkowski, 30, was at the
police department Tuesday try-
ing to describe the suspect and
events leading to the assault that
may have left her face perma-
nently disfigured.
The owner of a beauty salonon
Broadway Street said she walked
into the Prospect Street Caf
with Rickey Wells of Mountain
Top to buy a 12-pack of beer just
before 2 a.m. While she was talk-
ing to friends, a fight broke out
and a woman slashed Mieczkow-
ski numerous times in the face
and neck, police said.
Mieczkowski said she did not
know her attacker.
The slash on my neck was a
half-inch away from the carotid
artery, she said. I have numb-
ness in my face and neck. Its go-
ing to take two or three more sur-
geries to get my face a little what
it once was.

Officials are sworn in
in Bear Creek Twp.
BEAR CREEK TWP. Super-
visors began the new year with a
reorganization and the swearing
in of one new and one returning
supervisor at their meeting
Tuesday night.
Jeffrey Popple was sworn in
for his first six-year term and
while Joseph Masi began his
second term. Gary Zingaretti
was reelected chairman and
meetings were set for the first
Monday of each month at 6 p.m.
In the meeting that followed
residents and supervisors said
they would like to know more
about arrests and police in-
vestigations in the township,
but that information might be
hard to get.
Township police services are
provided by state police, and the
township doesnt receive regular
reports of police call response in
Bear Creek, the board was told
at their meeting Monday.
Solicitor William Vinsko said
that information that isnt part
of an active investigation is
public information and would
be available to the township, but
the township might have to go
to the barracks to get it.
Supervisors agreed it would
be good to have more informa-
tion and would look into avail-
able options for getting it.
The board also discussed
gaming grant requests sub-
mitted in December 2011.
Grants were submitted for
$140,000 for a new plow truck
and for just under $1 million for
reconstruction of Weiss Road.
In other business, the board
approved the 2012 township fee
schedule and the Uniform Con-
struction Code fees, and extend-
ed the contract with Building
Inspection Underwriters for
code enforcement through 2012.

New president, vice

PLYMOUTH Council held a
quick reorganizational meeting
Tuesday night to install its new
president and vice president.
Councilman Frank Coughlin
was unanimously chosen as
president while Ron Kobusky
will serve as vice president.
Both are council veterans and
will work with two new incom-
ing council members, Clif Ma-
drack and William Dixon.
Madrack and Dixon defeated
councilmen Charles Lasinski
and Carl Clemm in last Novem-
bers general election. All seven
members of council are Demo-
crats.
In other business, council
passed a 2012 balanced budget
at a special meeting held on
Friday.
The $1.17 million spending
plan includes no new taxes and
holds the mill rate at 5.7. A mill
is a $1 tax on every $1,000 of
assessed property value. One
mill brings in approximately
$205,586 in revenue for the
borough.
Borough Coordinator Joe
Mazur said council should end
2011 with a surplus of up to
$15,000. The savings will come
from controlling overtime ex-
penses as well as the boroughs
general expenses. The mild
winter has also contributed to
the savings by having to use
very little road salt, he said.
Mazur said he hopes the
borough will be able to upgrade
some of its equipment this year
by adding a new police cruiser
or road department truck.

of the potential challengers lives
within the 11th Congressional Dis-
trict.
South Wilkes-Barre attorney Wil-
liam E. Vinsko Jr. announced last
year his intention to try to unseat
Barletta. His early announcement
may have come into play when Re-
publican state lawmakers redrew
the states 17 congressional district

home was left out of the 11th Dis-
trict.

EXETER-- Residents who packed bor-
oughcouncil chambers Tuesday night to
get more information on a proposed
mercantile tax of $2,500 to be levied on
businesses within the borough that earn
$500,000 or more will have to wait until
at least February.
Councilman Joseph Esposito said
some of the council members were con-
fused by language within the proposed
legislation. Some were under the im-
pression that the tax would be imposed
on those earning a net total of $500,000
as opposed to a gross total of that
amount as the legislation actually
stated, he said. The matter was tabled.
The council will review the informa-
tionagainandcome upwitha revisedor-
dinance for next months meeting. Espo-
sito said the tax would more likely be be-
tween $650 and $1,000.
Some business per-
sons in the borough
had previously ex-
pressed opposition to
the $2,500 flat tax.
The first regular
meeting of 2012
kicked off with two rel-
atively new faces on
the council.
Esposito and Larry
Dellegrotto replaced
longtime council
members Richard Mu-
rawski and Richard
Turner.
The four-year term starting this year
marks Espositos second term on the
council. He originally served from 1998
through 2010.
He remaineda fixture at council meet-
ings, often speaking during the public
portions of each meeting.
Dellegrotto, a borough resident for
the past nine years, first became politi-
cally involved during the early stages of
Wal-Marts plans to construct a new
store on Wyoming Avenue.
Dellegrotto strongly opposed the new
big box store. He was even involved in a
suit against the council when some
members of the public were prevented
from entering a packed meeting on the
issue April 6, 2010.
A special second meeting took up the
issue again, prompting a judge to toss
out the lawsuit in December 2010.
This is Dellegrottos first term on the
council. Hesaidheintends tomakegood
on a campaign pledge for transparency
by establishing a website, tentatively ti-
tled exetercouncil.com, in which he will
post videos of each council meeting.
The website will not be officially affil-
iated with the council. Dellegrotto said
he hopes to have it up by February or
March.
Council member Denise Adams, a vet-
eranof six years withthe group, took the
helm as council president.
Former Zoning and Planning solicitor
Ray Hassey will now serve as councils
solicitor, replacing Peter J. Moses.
Sam Falcone was appointed as the
new Zoning and Planning solicitor.
The council will next meet at 7 p.m.
Tuesday, Feb. 7.

Pennsylvania congressional dis-
trict and someone residing in
Pittsburgh can run for a North-
eastern Pennsylvania congres-
sional district.
But even though the Constitu-
tion allows it, its been rare for
someone to actually do it. And
even more rare to do it success-
fully.
When U.S. Rep. Allyson
Schwartz was running for the
13th Congressional District in
2004, she lived in Chestnut Hill,
which was about
a half mile out-
side of the 13th
District in subur-
ban Philadel-
phia. Voters
elected her and
subsequently
she moved to
Jenkintown,
which is within
the 13th District.
Vinsko knows
the long odds
and the history
but isnt de-
terred.
Hes also not concerned about
rumblings that he might have a
primary election challenge from
another Democrat who also
doesnt live within the 11th Dis-
trict.
My sources are tellingme that
he wont run, Vinsko said. The
he is former U.S. Rep. Chris
Carney, who served two terms in
Congress representing the 10th
Congressional District before Re-
publican Tom Marino defeated
him in 2010.
Carney, whose home in Di-
mock Township, Susquehanna
County, remains within the 10th
District under the new bounda-
ries, has given some indication
that he is considering another
run and not necessarily in his
home district.
A source close to Carney told
The Times Leader the former
congressman has not ruled out a
2012runnor has he ruledout run-
ning in the 11th District, which
the source points out is within
seven miles of his home.
Hes beingencouragedby resi-
dents in both the 10th and 11th
districts to mount a campaign
and hes listening to whats being
said and considering all avenues,
including not seeking a run, the
source said.
Carney, who works as director
of homeland security and policy
strategy for London-headquar-
tered BAE Systems, a global de-
fense and security
company, in its Ar-
lington, Va., loca-
tion, was unavailable
totalkabout his deci-
sion-making process
onTuesday as he was
attending to his el-
dest son, who is reco-
vering from an auto
accident.
But a Wilkes Uni-
versity political sci-
ence professor sees
the wisdom of Car-
ney running in the
11th.
Professor Kyle Kreider said
Carney must realize that voters
put more weight on name recog-
nition than on residency require-
ments and with the way the dis-
tricts were redrawn, a Democrat
might have an easier chance of
winning in the 11th than in the
10th.
He said name recognition also
would favor Carney in a primary
battle against Vinsko.
Lance Stange Jr., Barlettas
campaign manager, sidestepped
the question of whether the resi-
dencytopic wouldbecomea cam-
paign issue.
I understand you have to ask
this question, but I really cant
discuss campaign strategy in the
press, he said.

During public comment, Hazleton Area
Landlord Association President Justine Crego
saidHALOmembers hadpresentedmanydis-
crepancies incorrect references and unre-
solvedlegal issues withtheordinancetothead-
ministration.
She cited a 2003 civil court opinion in a case
in which landlords sued the borough of West
Chester over a similar ordinance. The court
said a municipality could not use revenue from
registration and inspection fees collected from
one landlord to pursue legal action against oth-
er landlords who violated the ordinance, she
said.
Crego said the court decided that fees from
such ordinances could only be spent on inspec-
tions and the administration of registering
properties, andit appearsHazletonhasnomon-
ey budgeted to pursue violators.
She also said that when HALO brought the
legal issue to the administrations attention,
they closed communication lines.
Bast said the administration should look at
thecost of administeringtheordinancesandre-

Former House Speaker Newt
Gingrich was headed for a
fourth-place finish, trailed by
Texas Gov. Rick Perry, who says
he will reassess his campaign.
Minnesota Rep. Michele
Bachmann was far behind. Her
campaign manager, Keith Nahi-
gian, suggested she might drop
out, but she seemed to signal
otherwise a short while later. I

vative who can and who will de-
feat Barack Obama in 2012, she
declared.
Returns from 1,703 of 1,774
precincts showed Santorum
with 24.6 percent, Romney with
24.5 percent and Paul with 21.3
percent. Santorum had 29,046
votes, Romney 28,928 and Paul
25,121.
Former House Speaker Newt
Gingrich had 13 percent, fol-
lowed by Texas Gov. Rick Perry,
10 percent, and Minnesota Rep.
Michele Bachmann with 5 per-
cent.
No matter how close the final
results in Iowa, there were no
plans for a recount.
Doug Heye, a spokesman for
the state party, said the ballots
were counted under the supervi-
sion of campaign representa-
tives who certifiedthe totals. He
said the numbers were double-
checked when they were report-
ed to state officials and there
was no reason to check them
again.
On to NewHampshire, Gin-
grich said to the cheers of his
supporters, vowing to carry on
his campaignnomatter theIowa
outcome.
The former speaker led in the
pre-caucus polls as recently as a
fewweeks ago, only to fall under
the weight of attack ads run by a
super PAC run by allies of Rom-
ney.
Paul, too, said he was looking
forward to the nations first pri-
mary in a weeks time, telling
supporters his was one of two
campaigns with the resources to
do the distance. Theres going
to be an election up in New
Hampshire, and believe me this
momentumis going to continue
and this movement is going to
continue and we are going to
keep scoring, he told support-
ers.
The Texas lawmaker didnt
say so, but the other campaign
already built for a long cam-
paign was Romneys. The for-
mer Massachusetts governor
was closeted with aides and his
familyas he sweatedout the cau-
cus count in a state that hum-
bled him four years ago.
This time, win or lose, he ap-
peared destined to drawa small-
er share of the vote than the 25.2
percent he did then.
Each of the three in the top
tier strove to create a distinct
identity and brought a different
style to the race.
Santorum, the former Penn-
sylvania senator, ran the old-
fashioned way, spending parts
or all of 250days campaigningin
the state inhopes of emergingas
the preferred conservative alter-
native to Romney.
Romney, the former Massa-
chusetts governor, brought orga-
nization and money to the table,
and was aided by deep-pocketed
allies who ran television com-
mercials attacking former
House Speaker Newt Gingrich
and others. That allowed Rom-
ney to take the high road in per-
son, running as a former busi-
nessman who knew how to cre-
ate jobs and defeat Obama.
Paul, the Texas congressman,
was something of a blend of the
two approaches, with money
and organization. He drew on
the support of younger caucus-
goers with a libertarian-leaning
approach that included a call to
legalize marijuana and bring
home U.S. troops fromoverseas.
Nearly a third of those sur-
veyed said they most wanted a
candidate who could defeat
Obama, and those favored Rom-
ney as a group. Paul and Santo-
rum split the votes of the one in
four whocalledthe selectionof a
true conservative their top pri-
ority, and the former Pennsylva-
nia senator also made a strong
showing among those who said
their top priority was a candi-
date with a strong moral charac-
ter as well as among late decid-
ers.
Obama was unopposedfor the
Democratic nomination. Even
so, his re-election campaign set
up eight offices across Iowa,
made hundreds of thousands of
calls to voters and arranged a
video conference with caucus
night supporters.

Corbett nixes pay hikes
M
embers of Gov. Corbetts cabinet and
management employees in the
executive branch will not see any in-
crease in their salaries this year.
Citing the still-sluggish economy, Cor-
bett has imposed a pay
freeze on top-level staff
members, his spokes-
man, Kevin Harley, said
in an e-mail.
Harley did not say
howmany state em-
ployees were affected,
but under a similar
freeze imposed by Gov.
Ed Rendell in 2009 and 2010, 13,000 were
identified as management-level.
Three percent annual cost-of-living
increases for the executive branch were
to take effect Sunday. Under a 1995 law,
they are automatic for elected officials
despite the governors freeze. Nonelected
employees of the executive branch, how-
ever, are affected.
Corbett said he would keep the 2010
governors salary of $174,914 and send
the roughly $9,000 total annual increase
to charity.

Mideast peace talks resume
The first meeting between Israeli and

year ended without any key break-

of progress, the sides agreed to continue
the dialogue, officials said.
Resumption of any kind of contacts
would be a major achievement, though
Israel and the Palestinians remain far
fromagreement on key issues to resolve
their decades-long conflict.
The 15-month breakdown in negotia-
tions has seen a progressive souring of
the atmosphere, and earlier Tuesday, the
Palestinian president had warned of
taking tough measures against Israel if
talks dont resume by Jan. 26.

McAdoo men to plead guilty
Two men fromMcAdoo accused of
harassing Sarah Palins lawyers in Alaska
by phone plan to forgo trial and again
plead guilty, this time without the benefit
of a plea agreement.
A federal court judge in December
rejected plea deals for Shawn Christy, 20,
and his father, Craig Christy, and ordered
themto stand trial.
Craig Christy is set for a plea change
hearing Friday. His wife, Karen Christy,
says her son indicated he intends to also
plead guilty without a deal.
The men were arrested in Pennsylva-
nia in August. Prosecutors say the men
were upset about state restraining orders
issued on behalf of ex-Alaska Gov. Palin,
the 2008 GOP vice presidential candi-
date. The orders were issued after Palin
left office.

WASHINGTON The Pentagon on
Tuesday answered a warning from Iran
to keep U.S. aircraft carriers out of the
PersianGulf bydeclaringthat American
warships will continue regularly sched-
uled deployments to the strategic wa-
terway.
George Little, the Pentagonpress sec-
retary, said the Navy operates in the
Gulf in accordance with international
lawand to maintain a constant state of
high vigilance to ensure the flowof sea
commerce.
Earlier Tuesday, Irans army chief
warned an American aircraft carrier not
to return to the Gulf. Iran also has
warned it could block one of the worlds
key oil tanker sea lanes in response to
economic pressures.
White House press secretary Jay Car-
ney dismissed Irans warnings as signs
of Tehrans weakness and of the interna-
tional isolation it has faced for pursuing
a nuclear program.
Its the latest roundof Iranianthreats
andis confirmationthat Tehranis under
increasing pressure for its continued
failure tolive uptoits international obli-
gations, Carney said. Iran is isolated
and is seeking to divert attention from

The U.S. Navy has said the aircraft
carrier USSJohnC. Stennis andanother
vessel exited the Gulf through the Strait
of Hormuz a week ago. Iran has been
holding naval exercises near the Strait
at the mouth of the Gulf, which is a crit-
ically important passage for interna-
tional oil supplies.
The deployment of U.S. military as-
sets in the Persian Gulf region will con-
tinue as it has for decades, Little saidin

ly scheduled movements in accordance
with our longstanding commitments to
the security and stability of the region
and in support of ongoing operations.
The U.S. Navy 5thFleet has longbeen
headquartered in the Gulf state of Bah-

Asked whether the U.S. intends to
sendnaval reinforcements to the Gulf in
response to Iranian talk of closing the
Strait of Hormuz, Little did not answer
directly but said, Noone inthis govern-
ment seeks confrontation over the
Strait of Hormuz. Its important to low-

KABUL, Afghanistan The
Taliban announced Tuesday that
they will openanoffice inthe Per-
sian Gulf nation of Qatar to hold
talks with the United States, an
unprecedented step toward a
peace process that might lead to
a winding down of the 10-year
war in Afghanistan.
Although U.S. and Taliban rep-
resentatives have met secretly
several times over the past year
in Europe and the Persian Gulf,
this is the first time the Islamist
insurgent group has publicly ex-
pressed willingness for substan-
tive negotiations.
In recent months, the idea of a
Taliban political office in the Qa-
tari capital of Doha has become a
central element in U.S. efforts to
draw the insurgents into such
talks. The idea is to give the Tali-
ban more legitimacy to negotiate
in a location that presumably
would at least partly shield them
from Pakistani pressure.
But talks could falter if they do
not sufficiently involve President
Hamid Karzais government,
which the Taliban have dismis-
sed as a puppet regime. Karzais
inner circle derailed last years
behind-the-scenes talks, and the
Afghan leader grudgingly agreed
to the idea of the Talibans setting
up a liaison office in Qatar.
Another potential spoiler is Pa-
kistan, which houses most of the
Taliban leadership as well as the
Haqqani network, which carries
out major attacks in the Afghan
capital of Kabul. Pakistan be-
lieves it should have a say in any
talks involving neighboring Af-
ghanistan, which it fears will de-
velop an alliance with its archriv-
al, India.

arent new. Yet earthquakes havea special
ability to grab public attention.
Thats especially true after Saturdays
quake near Youngstown, at magnitude
4.0 strong enough to be felt across hun-
dreds of square miles. Gov. JohnKasich, a
drilling proponent, has shut down the
wastewater well on which the quake has
been blamed, along with others in the ar-
ea, as the seismic activity is reviewed.
Drillings very important for our econ-
omyandtohelpus progress as astate, but
every single person in the Mahoning Val-
ley felt this earthquake, said state Sen.
Joe Schiavoni, a Youngstown Democrat
who called for a public hearing.
Fracking involves blasting millions of
gallons of water, laced with chemicals
and sand, deep into the ground to unlock
COLUMBUS, Ohio In Ohio, geo-
graphically and politically positioned to
become a leadingimporter of wastewater
from gas drilling, environmentalists and
lawmakers opposed to the technique
known as fracking are seizing on a series
of small earthquakes as a signal to pro-
ceed with caution.
Earthquakes caused by the injection of
wastewater thats a byproduct of high-
pressure hydraulic fracture drilling,
vast reserves of natural gas, a boon both
for energy companies and a public hun-
gry for cheap sources of fuel.
That process, though, leaves behind
toxic wastewater that must be expensive-
ly treated or else pumped deep into the
earth.
The wastewater is extremely briny and
can contain toxic chemicals from the
drilling process and sometimes radio-
activity from deep underground.
Pennsylvanias drillers have turned in
recent months to deep-well injection of
millions of gallons of wastewater because
of a voluntary state moratoriumlast year
on dumping of waste at treatment plants
where the partiallytreatedliquids are dis-
charged into rivers and streams that
drinking water is taken from.

MIAMI Franky the drug
dogs super-sensitive nose is at
the heart of a question being
put to the U.S. Supreme Court:
Does a police K-9s sniff outside
ahousegiveofficers theright to
get a search warrant for illegal
drugs, or is the sniff itself anun-
constitutional search?
Floridas highest state court
said Frankys ability to detect
marijuana growing inside a
Miami-area house fromoutside
a closed front door crossed the
constitutional line. State Attor-
ney General Pam Bondi, an
elected Republican, wants the
nations justices to reverse that
ruling.
The Supreme Court could
decide this month whether to
take the case, the latest in a
long line of disputes about
whether the use of dogs to find
drugs, explosives andother ille-
gal or dangerous substances vi-
olates the Fourth Amendment
protection against illegal
search and seizure.
Many court watchers expect
the justices will take up the
Florida case.
The Florida Supreme Court
adopteda very broadreadingof
the Fourth Amendment that is
different from that applied by
other courts. Its an interpreta-
tion that a majority of the U.S.
Supreme Court will question,
said Tom Goldstein, who pub-
lishes the widely read SCO-
TUSblog website and also
teaches at the Harvard and
Stanford law schools.
The case, Florida v. Jardines,
is being closely monitored by
law enforcement agencies na-
tionwide, which depend on
dogs for a wide range of duties.
The 8-year-oldFranky retired
in June after a seven-year ca-
reer as a K-9 dog with the Mia-
mi-Dade Police Department.

Christmas Seals continue
to give past the holidays
E
very year, millions of Americans donate
to the Christmas Seals campaign, the
largest campaign of the American Lung
Association. With each donation, we are
able to fund life-saving research, education
and advocacy efforts to combat lung can-
cer, childhood asthma, tobacco use, sec-
ondhand smoke, air pollution and influen-
za.
In Pennsylvania, the Christmas Seal
makes it possible for children to attend
asthma camp, teens and adults to quit
smoking in our Freedom from Smoking
and Not on Tobacco (N-O-T) programs and
advocate for clean air. It advances research
in lung cancer, the number one cancer
killer in the nation, and it educates every-
one on the importance of getting vaccinat-
ed for influenza.
Presents have been opened, but the
Christmas Seal continues to give well after
the holidays. For more information on the
Christmas Seal Campaign, visit

Deb Brown
President, American Lung Association
of the Mid-Atlantic
TL reporter Van Rose
had passion for the job
M
y thoughts and condolences go out to
my former colleagues at The Times
Leader on the recent passing of Van
Rose.
Van brought a lot of enthusiasm to his
work in the sports department, where he
covered both the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre
Red Barons and the Scranton/Wilkes-
Barre Yankees. And, as many people know,
he also covered high school sports and
horse racing.
Although it is probably through the
sports pages that he was best known, I
knew him from the time we worked to-
gether in the features department; he
wrote a column on local television and did
a wonderful job covering country music.
Van was really tapped into the Nashville
music scene, especially back in the 90s
when modern-country was starting to
explode. He was very good at spotting
which artists were about to take off and
landing interviews with them, and because
of that, he built great relationships with
the Nashville publicists at the major record
labels and also got interviews with some of
the biggest stars in country music.
I never heard Van, a Vietnam-era veter-
an, say a bad word about anyone. He was
one of those writers who, even after sever-
al decades in the business, still seemed to
get a thrill out of having a byline in the
newspaper. He simply loved being a re-
porter.
He was a kind man and a gentle soul,
and I enjoyed working with him and sim-
ply being around him.
We will miss you, buddy. (It seemed Van
called everyone buddy.)
It is a sad time for The Times Leader
and its readers.

K
OF ALL the fictional char-
acters Ive created, the one
who haunts me most is
Zinnia Koss. She crops up
when I least expect her. It
happened just the other
day, when an application
for a Discover Card came in the mail, ad-
dressed to her.
She came into being more than 20 years
ago when I was newly pregnant with my
first child. I filled out a coupon in a store to
win a free playpen or stroller that asked for
the babys name. Not yet knowing if my
fetus was a boy, girl or sea creature, I wrote
Zinnia Koss a cute name, and one we were
actually considering. I picked a random date
of birth for her and turned in the form. In so
doing, a Zinnia was born.
Who knew procreation could be so literal?
Soon thereafter, Zinnia, (or Zinny as I
think of her) began receiving mail. She did
not win the free baby gear from the contest
that led to her existence, but she did receive
an invitation to have her portrait shot by a
baby photographer. Toy catalogs were soon
coming addressed to her, along with ads for
baby clothes and a discount diaper service.
During the time she would have been a
toddler, Zinnia was pelted with preschool
invitations and fliers touting mommy-and-
me swim classes and Gymboree.
Meanwhile, Id given birth to an actual
blood and bones baby with a different name
who, except for a few Enfamil baby formula
coupons, was noticeably less popular, com-
mercially speaking, than her imaginary
sibling.
This distance between the two increased
as time passed. Zinnia was invited to enter a
beauty pageant because theyd heard she
was adorable and a real charmer! She
was offered ballet, gymnastics and horse-
back riding and summer camp experiences.
It all made me wonder what would have
happened if I had written Zack instead of
Zinnia on the entry form.
During elementary school, Zinnia re-
ceived perplexing news of an achievement
and citizenship award for which she had
been mysteriously nominated. For only a
small fee, we could have purchased a hand-
some keepsake certificate commemorating
her accomplishment.
Years later the insults began. Zinny was
invited to lose weight with various weight-
loss programs at helpful local gyms. She
was urged to seek math tutoring. And she
was offered braces and skin care for trou-
bling acne. Some great unseeing eye as-
sumed that my non-daughter sucked at
math, and that she had zits, weight issues
and crooked teeth simply because she was a
female of a certain age. But they didnt
know my Zinny. She needed none of it.
I realized Zinny was growing up when she
began receiving offers of help in preparing
for her SATs as well as scads of hair-removal
and beauty products. Restaurants sent her
birthday greetings and florists sent mess-
ages of love.
By the time she would have been nearing
18, the military got interested. Glossy color
brochures arrived weekly touting all the fun
shed have if she enlisted in the Army, Navy,
Marines, Air Force, Coast Guard.
Some colleges wrote too, and there were
offers of financial guidance for how to get
student loans and grants from industry
professionals interested in helping you,
ZINNIA KOSS, find the plan thats right for
you!
Some sweepstakes claimed she might
already have won!
Will it be a bridal registry next? Then
working-mom stuff, tummy-slimming un-
derpants, anti-aging wrinkle treatments,
medical and life insurance, cable TV, early-
bird dinner and discount cruise offers? One
day, Im sure, her AARP card will appear in
the mail, followed by offers for senior resi-
dences, medical call bracelets and burial
plots.
The thought brings a tear to my eye as I
imagine Zinnia Koss funeral, a celebration
of her math-challenged, overweight non-
personhood. Ah Zinny, what a gal. She nev-
er gave this mother a moments worry.
Amy Goldman Koss has created enough fictional
characters to fill 14 novels for children and young
adults. She wrote this for the Los Angeles Times.
Despite her math deficit, Zinnias been a real charmer
COMMENTARY
A M Y G O L D M A N K O S S
N
EW YEARS EVE fes-
tivities are known to
cause some hangov-
ers, but consumers of
wine and spirits in Pennsylva-
nia woke up Jan. 1 with two
that did not come out of a bot-
tle.
The first is the continued ex-
istence of the Pennsylvania Li-
quor Control Board, one of the
last and certainly the biggest
such monopoly in the country.
The agency was formed in the
dying days of Prohibition in
1933, with Gov. Gifford Pin-
chot stating that its purpose
was to discourage the pur-
chase of alcoholic beverages by
making it as inconvenient and
expensive as possible.
Even in the days of a suppos-
edly consumer-friendly LCB,
its easy to see the spirit of that
mission is still being served.
The latest hangover comes
discourtesy of the House Li-
quor Control Committee,
which a couple weeks ago con-
sidered a legislative aspirin to
take for the monopoly hangov-
er a bill pushed by House Ma-
jority Leader Mike Turzai to
privatize the system.
But the committee chair-
man, Rep. John Taylor, a Re-
publican from Philadelphia,
hadhis ownold-fashionedrem-
edy, the tried and true do-noth-
ing-about-privatization pill.
Turzai meekly greeted the
news that the absurdity of the
state being in the liquor busi-
ness would likely continue.
Already the opponents of re-
formthink that because 2012 is
an election year nothing can
happen. Not so. Inlate Septem-
ber, a Quinnipiac University
poll found that 62 percent of
Pennsylvania voters supported
privatization of liquor sales
with just 31 percent opposed.
Its time that opponents of sell-
ing the state stores developed
the headaches.
Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
OTHER OPINION: LIQUOR SALES
Monopoly needs
to go private
H
ERESAPLEAfor of-
ficials in Harrisburg
to be ultra-diligent
when deciding how
to divvy out that $2.15 million
special fund intended to help
Luzerne County children.
Be sure the public knows ex-
actly how the grant process
will unfold. For starters, spec-
ify to the news media whether
the money will be doled out in
its entiretyor whether the mul-
timillion-dollar sum will be
preserved as an endowment,
yielding regular mini-windfalls
in the formof interest and divi-
dends. If the latter, will grants
be awarded yearly or more of-
ten?
Be aggressive about notify-
ing Luzerne Countys govern-
ment agencies and its nonprof-
it projects and programs about
the availability of new funding
and be thorough in soliciting
applications from them during
each grant cycle.
Be open. Area residents will
react unfavorably if this proc-
ess seems to involve only a
handful of power brokers steer-
ing cash to their favored pro-
grams (as sometimes appears
to be the case with those com-
munity development distribu-
tions from Pennsylvanias casi-
no revenues.)
The buddy-back-scratching
system, after all, is what
spawned many of this areas re-
cent public corruption trou-
bles, most notably the kids-
for-cash scandal.
The legal meltdown in our
countys juvenile court, publi-
cly revealed by federal investi-
gators in January 2009, result-
ed in the imprisonment of two
former Luzerne County judges
andguiltypleas fromtwoother
men. Real estate developer
Robert Mericle, of Jackson
Township, agreed as part of his
plea deal to pay more than $2
million to programs for the
health, safety and general wel-
fare of children of Luzerne
County.
Until recently, Mericles
money had been held in an
escrow account. A federal
judge recently OKd its release
to the Pennsylvania Commis-
sion on Crime and Delinquen-
cy, which is expected to dis-
burse it for its intended pur-
pose.
The director of the commis-
sions Office of Juvenile Justice
and Delinquency Prevention
saidlate last monththat specif-
ics, which had yet to be estab-
lished, probably would be an-
nounced in a matter of weeks.
We urge the commission to
adopt a strategy early in 2012
that is fully transparent, ex-
ceedingly fair and widely help-
ful. Its timethat this moneybe-
gins to benefit county youths.

torney Stefanie Salavantis said
Tuesday she received the filing,
but she cannot act on it because
it is under the discretion of the
Attorney Generals Office.
On Tuesday, Toole agreed
with Moreno, Abreu and Os-
borne in his opinion:
Trial counsels penalty phase
presentation was disjointed,
scattered and particularly inef-
fectual in its failure to synthe-
size readily available life history
evidence of mental illness, fam-
ily dysfunction and physical and
sexual abuse into a coherent
and persuasive case in support
of mitigation, Toole wrote.
The penalty phase presenta-
tion could be described as much
too little and much too late.
Toole ruled all of Bardos oth-
er claims of ineffectiveness were
meritless, including that they
failed to present evidence to
support a voluntary intoxication
defense, establish that a change
of venue was needed and that
no Luzerne County Children &
Youth records were obtained.
Toole said the only Post Con-
viction Relief Act request he
was granting for Bardo was that
of a new sentencing hearing.
Bardo will be granted a new
sentencing hearing based upon
the ineffective assistance of
counsel during the penalty
phase of this case, Toole wrote.
At a November 2009 hearing,
Moreno, Abreu and Osborne
called Neil Blumberg, a forensic
psychiatrist to testify about Bar-
dos alleged mental disorders
and a history of sexual abuse,
poverty and family dysfunction.
Blumberg testified Bardo had
a chaotic and horrendous
childhood because his parents
beat him, and he was later mo-
lested by a man on numerous
occasions. Blumberg said Bardo
used alcohol to suppress his
feelings about his childhood to
the point that he would drink a
case to a case and a half of beer
and whiskey at the age of 16.
Bardo had attempted suicide
approximately 20 times, Blum-
berg testified, and had pedophil-
ic interest and urges for pre-
pubescent girls.
Toole said in his filing that
the ineffectiveness largely came
from an inexperienced trial law-
yer who had little training in
death penalty cases.
Bartolai, Toole said, had been
instructed by Yeager to prepare
and present the penalty phase
of the case. Bartolai had been
working in the countys Public
Defenders Office for two years
and had no training in capital
litigation and limited training in
capital mitigation.
At the 2009 hearing, Yeager
testified:
I have no tactical, nor do I
have any excuse for not having
the discussions which obviously
should have occurred and, once
again, that is my negligence and
my fault that I did not see that
they did occur. I should have
been watching over (Bartolai)
more closely.
Toole wrote that the penalty
phase of Bardos case was con-
stitutionally deficient and that
because not all evidence was
presented to jurors at that time,
it is only fair to allow them to
hear it and decide Bardos sen-
tence again.
A resentencing hearing has
not been scheduled.
BARDO
Michael Bardos death penalty
sentence is the fourth overturned
in Luzerne County. Others are:
George Banks: In 2011, Banks,
69, was granted a reprieve from
his death sentence based on a
state Supreme Court ruling that
deemed him to be incompetent to
be executed.
Banks was sentenced to death for
the Sept. 25, 1982, rampage in
Wilkes-Barre and Jenkins Town-
ship in which 13 people were killed,
including five of his own children.
There is one more avenue of
appeal prosecutors may seek -- to
the U.S. Supreme Court. Banks will
likely spend the rest of his life in
prison, barring a successful ap-
peal. No appeal had been filed as
of Tuesday.
Tyrone Moore: In 2000, a Lu-
zerne County judge overturned
Moores death sentence, citing his
attorneys failure to introduce
certain evidence at Moores sen-
tencing that would have shown his
childhood was full of trauma, fear
and terror.
Moore, 57, was convicted in the
1982 shooting death of Nicholas
Romanchick during a robbery at
the Forty Fort Animal Hospital on
Wyoming Avenue. Romanchick
had taken his cat to the clinic and
was shot when the animal jumped
from his arms. He was resen-
tenced to life in prison.
Brian Smith: In 1996 the state
Supreme Court overturned the
death sentence of Smith, 42,
convicted in the September 1991
beating death of his girlfriends
5-month-old son, Ryan Leahy.
The court ruled Smiths trial at-
torney, Patrick Flannery, was
ineffective in the penalty phase of
the trial for failing to introduce
evidence that Smith was mentally
ill. He was resentenced to life in
prison.
OVERTURNED CAPI TAL CASES

press secretary for the state

Citizens urged release
Several citizens urged the new
County Council to publicly re-
lease the five names and resumes
Tuesday.
Nanticoke resident John New-
man also suggested a forum to
publicly interview finalists.
Kingston Township resident
Tom Dombroski told the council
to quit dallying around and re-
lease the names.
Wilkes-Barre Township resi-
dent Bob Caruso asked council
which it respects more the ano-
nymity of applicants or the needs
of citizens.
Hazleton resident Kathy Do-
bash said the names should be re-
leasedtokeepthepublicinformed
because home rule did not grant
citizens theright toelect amanag-
er.
Councilman Rick Morelli made
the motion to release the five
names and resumes, saying the
applicants were interviewed at
taxpayer expenseandcitizensand
the media may find information
about applicants that maybeof in-
terest to council.
Councilman Rick Williams
madeanalternatemotiontodelay
the vote a week to give council
time to determine whether it will
consider a public forum. Williams
stressed that he does not oppose
the release of information at a lat-
er date.
Councilman Tim McGinley
said the release of names and re-
sumes would not preclude the
council fromholding public inter-
views or proceeding with the se-
lection process.
Councilman Harry Haas said
council was elected to find a man-
ager, and the release of names
could be perceived as unprofes-
sional.
Councilman Stephen A. Urban,
whoappliedfor the manager posi-
tion, asked why some council
members aresoresistant tothere-
lease of names.
The motion to postpone a vote
prevailed, with support from
council members JimBobeck, Ed-
ward Brominski, Haas, Linda
McClosky Houck, Eugene Kelleh-
er and Williams.
The following council mem-
bers opposed the delay: Elaine
Maddon Curry, McGinley, Morel-
li, Stephen A. Urban and Stephen
J. Urban.
After the meeting, Morelli con-
firmed that Lawton, Becher and
Naftal are currently ranked the
top three finalists by council
members.
Morelli saidduringthemeeting
that the council is negotiating
withone of the five applicants and
appears very close to making a
selection.
The manager will oversee day-
to-day county operations under

Pribula also informed council that
he has assigned current deputies

DALLAS As much in the dark about
their future as everyone else, Penn State
coaches had no choice but to say good-
bye.
It began right after Mondays Ticket-
City Bowl loss to Houston and contin-
ued into Tuesday as the Nittany Lions
broke up and went their separate ways.
For now.
These last two months have been...
quarterbacks coach Jay Paterno said be-
fore having to briefly stop to regain his
composure. ...Its been to hell and back
in a lot of ways. More so for our (play-
ers). They did nothing.
There are so many people to feel for
in this whole situation. The victims in-
volved and the allegations, and a lot of
people involved in this are people that
Ive known a long time in my life.
I think one good out of it is that the
character of the players on our teamhas
shown to everybody. You just hope and
pray that justice is done at the end.
The sense among the coaching staff is
that most, if not all of them, will not re-
turn for the 2012 season under a new
headcoach. Somanytookthe time these
past two days to reflect and meet with
players.

PHILADELPHIA Big Red
isnt going anywhere yet.
Eagles chairman Jeffrey Lurie
said coach Andy Reid will return
for his14thseasoninPhiladelphia,
though he left open the possibility
for changes on the coaching staff.
Speaking to reporters on Tues-
day for the first time since training
camp, Lurie expressed his displea-
sure with the
teams 8-8 re-
cord and ex-
plained in detail
why he chose to
retain Reid after
weeks of serious
deliberation.
This was,
without ques-
tion, the most disappointing sea-
sonsinceIveownedtheteam,Lu-
rie said. Its completely unaccept-
able.
TheEagleswerestrongfavorites
to reach the Super Bowl after win-
ning the NFC East title last year
and adding several accomplished
players in the offseason. But they
started1-4andwere4-8beforeclos-
ing out the year with four consec-
utive wins against non-playoff
teams.
Lurie called the poor start dis-
mal and unfathomable and also
describedsomeof thelossesaslu-
dicrous andterrible. TheEagles
blew fourth-quarter leads five
times.
Reid is the longest-tenured
coach in the NFL. Hes led the Ea-
gles to nine playoff appearances,
six division titles, five NFC cham-
pionship games and one Super
Bowl loss in13 seasons. Lurie said
he considered Reids track record,
both long-term and short-term,
and his intangibles when deciding
to keep him.
AndyReidnot onlyhas thelove
of his players andtheir respect, but
healsohas thefireinhis bellytobe
thebest, Luriesaid. Youvegot to
have the anger. Youve got to have
themotivation, thededication, and
the focus and the talent. My an-
swer to those questions is yes.
Thats why I want to see our team
coached by Andy Reid next year,
and I cant wait to see that team
play. Theres nodoubt inmy mind,
if our focus is on trying to win a
championship next year, the best
coach for that is Andy.

To say Rick Simons
first four years as head
coach at GAR were
tough would be an
understatement.
Things got so bad for
Simon and his team
which averaged just
three wins a season in his first four
seasons that opponents would spend
more time on the bus traveling to
Wilkes-Barre for a dual than getting
mat time because the Grenadiers had to
forfeit as many as eight matches during
a meet last season.
This season, however, the Grenadiers
have had as few as one forfeit in a dual.
Its been a long process for Simon,
his assistant coaches Jay Lavelle and
Josh Wasilewski, and junior high coach-
es Gene Lavelle and Tony Lovecchio,
who all began rebuilding the program
from the bottom up.
Its nice to have (that full lineup),
Simon gleefully said. These are the
guys that we recruited and have been
through the system and are coming up
to us now. Its nice to see them matured
and still growing, and enjoying the
sport of wrestling.
This season, the Grenadiers arent a
pushover and they dont look like a
team that hasnt won a WVC match
since the 2008-09 season.
That was evident in the first dual of
the season when they jumped out to a
21-3 lead over defending Wyoming
Valley Conference Division II and Dis-
trict 2 Class 2A duals champion
Meyers. Tonight, GAR faces another
division hopeful when it travels to
Lake-Lehman.
The teams improvement was also
indicated last weekend at the Tunk-
hannock Kiwanis Tournament. GAR

NANTICOKE Nowthis was
a girls basketball performance
thatd make even a schools all-
time leading scorer smile.
The Nanticoke Area Trojans
produced flurries of points
and plenty of them while
bringing back recollections of
their glory days.
Good timing, too.
On a night when the Trojans
retired the No. 15 jersey of Aly
Byorick, her old teamused a 17-
point outburst by Sammy Gow
and received 15 from Katie
Wolfe to lash
Lake-Lehman,
58-34 at the
Nanticoke Area
gym.
Thats where
Byorick made
her legend be-
fore graduating in 2007, putting
up2,271career points a school
record for boys or girls while
leading Nanticoke Area to a
combined 58-2 overall record
during her final two high school
seasons.
She became the first Nanti-
coke Area girls player to hang
her number high on the gym
wall, joining former boys bas-
ketball stars Paul Guffrovich
who ironically also wore No. 15
and Ken Casey as the only bas-
ketball players to have jerseys
retired by the school.
This is a special, great honor
for me, said Byorick, now in
her senior season playing for a
Lehigh University team picked
to finish second in the Patriot
League.
Byorick thanked her past
teammates for helping her re-
ach such heights, saying, Al-
though its my name and num-
ber goinguponthewall, I would
never have been able to do any-
thing without you guys.
And many of her current Le-
high teammates drove up from
Bethlehem to watch Byorick re-
ceive the honor.
Then the todays Trojans hon-
ored her by opening up a nine-
point halftime lead that grewto
45-27 by the end of the third
quarter.
When Aly was a senior, we
were just in junior high, Wolfe,
a forward, said. I remember

INJURY REPORT: On the NFL board, Houston QB T.J. Yates is now listed as
probable; Pittsburgh RB Rashard Mendenhall is out. On the NBA board, Boston
forward Jermaine ONeal is questionable, New Jersey forward Kris Humphries is
questionable, New York forward Amare Stoudemire is probable and guard Iman
Shumpert is probable, Memphis forward Zach Randolph is doubtful, New Orleans
guard Eric Gordon is questionable, Denver forward Nene Hilario is questionable.
After he scored his second
goal of the game last Saturday
against Bridgeport, Zach Sill re-
alized something.
Maybe I should shoot the
puck a little bit more. Just put
it on net, he said. You never
know what can happen.
Sills pair of goals gave him
three tallies in the last two
games. Its not a bad streak for
a player who has been a fourth
line energy-type for all of his
three seasons in the AHL.
Its a streak that Sill hopes to
continue tonight when the Pen-
guins host the Norfolk Admi-
rals.
I had three goals all season
then I had three goals in two
games. You definitely get more
confident when you put the
puck in the net, Sill said.
Coming into this season, Sill
scored 16 goals in 134 games
over the last two seasons. With
his recent goal scoring streak
he now has six in 27 games and
is on pace to break his career-
high of 11 set last season.
While Sills goal totals may
not be gaudy, there have been
glimpses of offensive skill
throughout his career, dating
back to juniors. In 2007-2008
when Sill played with Moncton
in the QJMHL he posted 18
goals in 66 games. The next
season Sill had a hat trick.
Still, he was a little surprised
with last Saturdays two-goal
outburst and admitted that a
hat trick did cross his mind.
When I got out there in the
last minute with an empty net,
I was thinking about a hat trick
a little bit. But I wasnt going to
do anything selfish, Sill said.
But I had a couple points
last year and I know Im capable
of producing offensively. It is a
good feeling to convert on the
chances that you get in a
game.
Head coach John Hynes
wasnt surprised, however, by
Sills goal outburst and said its
expected.
Its good to see it starting to
come out. Hes a hard-working,
energy guy for us, and we also
expect him to execute offensive-
ly. Hes doing it at a high level
right now, Hynes said.

All-Star rosters announced today
- The American Hockey League will announce the rosters for the AHL All-Star Classic today at 3 p.m. On
Jan. 5, fans can begin voting for the starting lineups by visiting www.theahl.com or facebook.com/theahl.
The 2012 All-Star Classic will be played in the Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City. The skills competition will be
at 3 p.m. on Jan. 29 followed by the game at 7 p.m. on Monday, Jan. 30.
Potential all-stars for the Penguins include Colin McDonald, who leads the team with 28 points (eight
goals, 20 assists) and is tied for third in the AHL in plus/minus with a plus-17; Eric Tangradi leads the
Penguins in goals with 13 and has 23 points in 27 games; and Bryan Lerg has 12 goals, 23 points and a
plus-12 while playing in all 33 games so far.
We have some all-star caliber players and a lot of NHL-caliber players, Hynes said.
- Goaltender Scott Munroe was held out of Tuesdays practice for precautionary reasons. Hynes said
Munroe has a minor lower body injury. Patrick Killeen was called up from Wheeling on Tuesday morning
and practiced with the team. If Munroe misses any time, Hynes said hes perfectly fine going with Brad
Thiessen in net. Thiessen has struggled of late, dropping three of his last five decisions while allowing nine
goals combined in his last two starts.
Still, Hynes said he sees several bright spots in Thiessens game. Over the last week hes reacting to the
puck when hes playing his best. Hes an excellent goaltender, Hynes said. It comes with confidence,
timing and a little bit of rectification of what he needs to do to get his game back.
- Beginning with tonights game against Norfolk (7:05 p.m.), the Penguins play their next three at home,
including Friday against Rochester and Saturday when they host Syracuse.
The long home stretch means ample practice time, rest and no travel all appealing qualities, Hynes said.
We want to take advantage of the schedule right now and put together some good efforts, he said.
- With only injured defenseman Robert Bortuzzo up in Pittsburgh, the Penguins lineup is about as
complete as its been all season. Its starting to look a little more like the team we thought we would have
for the majority of the year, Hynes said.
When Pens host Norfolk
tonight, he will attempt to
score in third straight game.

DALLAS The past few
seasons, Dallas and Tunkhan-
nock spent the boys basketball
season in a futile attempt to
knock Holy Redeemer from its
reign in Division II.
But with that chasm between
the two and the rebuilding
Royals narrowed, Tuesdays
Wyoming Valley Conference
opener brought added signif-
icance.
Dallas ended up with the
upper hand as a big third quar-
ter from returning divisional
all-star Shane Dunn helped the
Mountaineers to a 51-32 victory.
Dallas and Tunkhannock
were the only WVC Division II
teams to finish Decembers
non-conference schedule with
winning records. Redeemer,
which has won three divisional
titles in its four years of exist-
ence, was just 2-6.
To be honest, this year
theres a lot of parity in the
division, Dallas first-year coach
Doug Miller said. From what
weve seen in games so far, we
think anybody can win the
division. That goes for any of
the five teams in the division.
Dunn was 0-for-4 from the
field in the first half and still
scoreless two minutes into the
third. The 6-foot-4 senior,
though, finished with 10 points
in the quarter as Dallas (1-0
Div. II, 5-3 overall) opened a
38-28 lead.
My shots were falling, said
Dunn, who finished with 12
points. The first half was a
little sloppy. The shots werent
falling at all. The second half,
they started hitting a little bit.
The Mountaineers wasted
little time pulling away in the
fourth. Bob Saba knocked down
a three-pointer and Paul Brace,
who finished with a team-high
16, followed with two field
goals for a 45-28 lead.
Meanwhile, Tunkhannock
(0-1, 6-4) never found continui-
ty on either end of the court.
Center James Hawk finished
with 16 points, but Dallas didnt
allow the 6-10 senior to control
the inside. Senior Tyrin Alguire
came off the bench to gun in a
couple threes in the second
quarter, salvaging what could
have been a troublesome first
half. The Tigers trailed 13-4
after one quarter, but pulled
within 19-17 by halftime.
The Tigers, though, couldnt
get the lead as turnovers and
Dallas transition game caused
problems.
Theyre very, very athletic
and they hit the passing lanes
and have great hands, Tunk-
hannock coach Bob Miller said.
Once they get to the open
floor, they have five guys that
can run and finish. We talked
about that leading into the
game, but it just wasnt our
night.

MADISON, Wis. Wiscon-
sins Ryan Evans had an apparent
game-tying 3-pointer overturned
on an officials replay review,
allowing No. 10 Michigan State
to hold on for a 63-60 victory
over No. 18 Wisconsin in over-
time Tuesday night.
Draymond Green had 18
points and 14 rebounds, while
Keith Appling added 16 points
for the Spartans (14-2, 3-0 Big
Ten), who have won 14 straight.
Jordan Taylor scored 28 points
for the Badgers (12-4, 1-2).
Evans apparent game-tying 3
was overturned after officials
ruled he didnt get the shot off
before time expired.
It was another rare home loss
and another rough shooting
night for the Badgers, who
shot poorly from outside in a
home loss to Iowa on Saturday.
Kentucky 73,
Arkansas-Little Rock 51
LOUISVILLE, Ky. Ken-
tucky freshman Anthony Davis
had 22 points and 16 rebounds,
and the No. 2 Wildcats overcame
a slow start with a big run that
put away Arkansas-Little Rock at
Freedom Hall.
Darius Millers 3-pointer with
11:03 left put the Wildcats up
45-35 and made him the 58th
Kentucky player to score 1,000
points. Kentucky used a 23-1 run
to storm past the undermanned
Trojans.
Seton Hall 75,
Connecticut 63
NEWARK, N.J. Jordan
Theodore scored all 19 of his
points in the second half and
Seton Hall ended almost 11 years
of frustration by stunning No. 8
Connecticut in coach Kevin
Willards biggest win since tak-
ing over the program last sea-
son.
Herb Pope added 15 points,
and Fuquan Edwin and Aaron
Cosby had 12 apiece as the Pi-
rates (13-2, 2-1 Big East) beat
Connecticut (12-2, 2-1) for the
first time since March 3, 2001
a span of 11 games. The win also
snapped the Huskies current
seven-game overall winning
streak.
Louisville 73, St. Johns 58
NEW YORK Russ Smith
scored 17 points and No. 11
Louisville snapped a two-game
losing streak with a victory over
St. Johns at Madison Square
Garden.
Kyle Kuric added 15 points
and Gorgui Dieng added 12 for
the Cardinals (13-2, 1-1 Big East),
who lost to Georgetown and
Kentucky last week to drop from
fourth to No. 11 in the Top 25.
Louisville came into the game
second in the Big East in field
goal percentage defense at 36.6
percent. The Red Storm never
came near that figure.
Florida 79, UAB 61
GAINESVILLE, Fla. Erving
Walker scored 23 points, Kenny
Boynton added 20 and No. 13
Florida beat UAB in the Gators
final tuneup before beginning
Southeastern Conference play.
Patric Young chipped in 15
points and seven rebounds for
the Gators (12-3), who won their
14th consecutive home game.
Cameron Moore led the Blaz-

Soko had 13 points and 12 re-
bounds.
Harvard 60, Fordham54
NEW YORK Bryan Smith
scored 22 points, and Chris
Gaston added 18 points and nine
rebounds to lead Fordham to a
win over No. 22 Harvard.
The win was the first for Ford-
ham (7-6) over a ranked team
since December 2000. It was
also the Rams first win against a
Top 25 opponent at Rose Hill
Gym since a 63-59 win over
then-No.19 Georgetown on Feb.
26, 1978. Fordham shot 48.8
percent from the field while
limiting Harvard (12-2) to 37-
percent shooting.
Ohio St. 71, Nebraska 40
COLUMBUS, Ohio Jared
Sullinger had 19 points and 12
rebounds, and No. 6 Ohio State
shook off its most recent loss
with a victory over Nebraska.
The Buckeyes (14-2, 2-1 Big
Ten) had little difficulty in their
first game since a painful 74-70
defeat at No. 13 Indiana on Sat-
urday. In that loss, the Buckeyes
had 17 turnovers and committed
22 fouls.
Missouri 87,

Overturned 3-pointer gives Michigan State victory over Wisconsin
C M Y K
S P O R T S
DALLAS Wisconsin will
lose several dynamic players.
Ohio State will be banned from
the postseason. Illinois is break-
ing in a new coaching staff. Pur-
due and Indiana are, well, Pur-
due and Indiana.
The opportunity is there for
Penn State to make a run at the
top of the Leaders Division of
the Big Ten in 2012. But its im-
possible to gauge whether the
Nittany Lions will be a real fac-
tor in the race until after a head
coach is hired.
The men who led the Lions at
the end of a lost 2011 season
insist that the pieces are there
for a strong 2012, no matter who
happens to be in charge.
Its unfortunate that from the
outside it looks like its falling
apart, but weve got some great
kids in that locker room still,
co-defensive coordinator Larry
Johnson said. And those kids
are going to be back next year.
So whoever gets the job is
going to inherit some great
young men. And they want to
win.
With the important disclaim-
er that defections could easily
follow the announcement of a
new coach, here is a look at
Penn States roster for next sea-
son.
ON OFFENSE
Departing: T Quinn Barham,
TB Stephfon Green, WR Derek
Moye, T Chima Okoli, G De-
Ontae Pannell, FB Joe Suhey,
TE Andrew Szczerba, G Johnnie
Troutman
For the third straight year,
there will likely be a protracted
quarterback competition.
Matt McGloin will certainly
be back for his fifth and final
season, this time possibly as the
favorite to win the job. After the
bowl game, Rob Bolden alter-
nated between saying he would
definitely return and saying he
wants to see what the new staff
will be like.
Thats as important for the
quarterbacks as anyone. With-
out a clue how the new guy will
run an offense, theres no telling
what skillset he will look for in a
signal-caller.
And then theres Paul Jones,
who has drawn rave reviews in
practice but spent this entire
season ineligible to play because
of academic reasons.
The receiving corps is also a
question mark. Moye is gone.
Curtis Drake and Shawney Ker-
sey did not travel with the team
to Dallas for the bowl game and
their futures are up in the air.
That leaves Justin Brown and
Devon Smith as the top return-
ing targets, along with tight end
Kevin Haplea. Brown in partic-
ular gave an excellent effort in
the TicketCity Bowl despite lim-
ited opportunities, scoring a 69-
yard touchdown and having a
93-yard punt return for a score
correctly overturned by replay
review.
Of course, the top talent will
be tailback Silas Redd, who car-
ried the offense for much of the
season before the heavy load
and injuries wore him down.
Depth behind him will be a con-
cern.
Redd is committed to return,
but he will have four new start-
ing linemen in front of him. On-
ly center Matt Stankiewitch will
be back, though a pair of back-
ups -- guard John Urschel and
tackle Mike Farrell -- both saw
significant playing time in 2011.
Those three will be favorites
to start. Coaches were very high
on true freshman tackle Dono-
van Smith, whom they ultimate-
ly decided to redshirt. The op-
portunity will be there for West
Scrantons Eric Shrive to win a
starting job.
ON DEFENSE
Departing: HERO Drew Asto-
rino, DE Jack Crawford, DE Eric
Latimore, CB DAnton Lynn, CB
Chaz Powell, DT Devon Still,
LB Nate Stupar, FS Nick Sukay
The first concern will be re-
placing the entire starting sec-
ondary, but the Lions do have
three experienced candidates
ready to step in.
Cornerbacks Stephon Morris
and Adrian Amos join safety
Malcolm Willis as the top choic-
es to start.
Morris has plenty of games
under his belt already and Willis
started for half of the 2010 sea-
son because of injury. Amos was
a big surprise this year as a true
freshman.
Stephen Obeng-Agyapong got
most of his snaps on special
teams but was also the top back-
up to Astorino. He will try to
win a starting safety spot along
with Willis.
Up front, the Lions hope to
have defensive tackle Jordan
Hill return for his senior season.
Losing both him and Still would
be a huge blow, but Penn State
can survive well with Hill and
someone like DaQuan Jones in
the middle.
On the edge, the Lions will
still have the undersized but ef-
fective Sean Stanley, who makes
his share of big plays. Also back
will be Pete Massaro, who was
one of Penn States few effective
pass rushers in 2010 before mis-
sing the entire 2011 campaign
with the second ACL injury of
his career.
Underclassmen Kyle Baublitz
and C.J. Olaniyan will also be in
the mix along with a pair of red-
shirted players in Shawn Oak-
man and Deion Barnes.
As usual, Penn State will be
strongest at linebacker. Break-
out player Gerald Hodges will
be back for his senior year and
Michael Mauti will return from
a second ACL surgery of his
own to give the Lions one of the
top units in the country.
Mix in 2011 starter Glenn Car-
son and promising players like
Khairi Fortt and Mike Hull, and
the Lions depth at the position
remains strong.

Taking a look at player personnel for 2012 season
By DEREK LEVARSE
dlevarse@timesleader.com
RALEIGH, N.C. Frans
Nielsen scored the deciding
goal in a shootout, and the
New York Islanders earned
their third straight win by
beating the Carolina Hurri-
canes 4-3 on Tuesday night in a
matchup of the Eastern Confer-
ences bottom two teams.
Kyle Okposo scored with
1:30 remaining to send the
game into overtime, and John
Tavares had three assists for
the Islanders (14-17-6), who
matched their best winning
streak of the season. Evgeni
Nabokov made 37 saves.
Chad LaRose, Brandon Sut-
ter and Anthony Stewart
scored for Carolina (13-21-7),
and Cam Ward made 33 saves.
After Islanders forward P.A.
Parenteau and Carolinas Jussi
Jokinen traded goals to start
the shootout, Nielsen skated in
and shifted to his backhand to
beat Ward.
Capitals 3, Flames 1
WASHINGTON Alex
Ovechkin and Troy Brouwer
scored power-play goals, Nick-
las Backstrom had three as-
sists, and the Washington
Capitals kept rolling in the
New Year with their fourth
straight win, beating the Cal-
gary Flames 3-1 Tuesday night.
Dennis Wideman also
scored, and Tomas Vokoun
made 18 saves for the Capitals,
who improved to 9-6-1 under
coach Dale Hunter.
Curtis Glencross had the
lone goal for the Flames, who
have dropped four straight
with one game left on a seven-
game trip. Miikka Kiprusoff
made 18 saves, and Jarome
Iginla remained one goal shy of
becoming the 42nd NHL player
to score 500.
Sabres 4, Oilers 3
BUFFALO, N.Y. Drew
Stafford and Nathan Gerbe
scored 2:04 apart late in the
third period to spark the
slumping Buffalo Sabres to a
win over the road-weary Ed-
monton Oilers.
Jordan Leopold and Sabres
captain Jason Pominville, who
played despite an illness that
limited his ice time, also
scored for Buffalo. Stafford
added two assists, and Ryan
Miller made 23 saves to im-
prove to 6-0 against Edmonton.
The Sabres won for the sec-
ond time in eight games (2-
5-1).
Maple Leafs 7, Lightning 3
TORONTO Joffrey Lupul
had a goal and three assists,
and the Toronto Maple Leafs
killed four early power plays
including a two-man advantage
in a victory over the Tampa
Bay Lightning.
The Maple Leafs, who own
the NHLs worst penalty-killing
unit, worked on short-handed
situations in practice on Mon-
day, and it paid off.
Carl Gunnarsson, Mikhail
Grabovski, Darryl Boyce, Matt
Frattin, Dion Phaneuf and Phil
Kessel added goals for Toronto
(19-15-5).
Red Wings 5, Stars 4
DALLAS Jiri Hudler
scored twice, linemate Valtteri
Filppula added a goal and two
assists, and the Detroit Red
Wings hung on to beat the
Dallas Stars.
Henrik Zetterberg, the third
member of the line, had three
assists.
Johan Franzen and Cory
Emmerton also connected for
the Red Wings, an NHL-best
15-2-1 at home but only 10-11-0
on the road.
Blues 4, Coyotes 1
ST. LOUIS Jaroslav Halak
made 33 saves, and the St.
Louis Blues snapped a season-
worst, three-game skid with a
win over the Phoenix Coyotes.
The Blues improved to 15-3-2
at home with their seventh win
there in eight games. They are
tied with Detroit for most
home wins (15).
Chris Stewart and Jamie
Langenbrunner scored first-
period goals for St. Louis,
which improved to 16-5-5 since
Ken Hitchcock replaced fired
coach Davis Payne on Nov. 6.
T.J. Oshie and Patrik Berglund
added goals for the Blues.

Most of the night, Lehman was
trying to play catch-up.
Wolfe scored six points inside
and Gowdrilled a pair of 3-point-
ers in the first quarter as Nanti-

point lead.
Despite getting a team-high 11
points from Cayle Spencer, the
Black Knights could keep their
deficit from expanding after half-
time.
Gow and Wolfe were again the
main reasons, as both scored six
points in the third quarter to give
Nanticoke Area a 45-27 advan-
tage with a quarter to play.
Weve been waiting for this
one for a long time, Wolfe said.
On the defensive end, the Tro-

This team just seems to keep

Angelo has been fired following a
teamcollapse marked by injuries to
Jay Cutler and Matt Forte and a
drug scandal involving receiver
Sam Hurd. Tuesdays announce-
ment ends Angelos 11-year reign in
which the Bears reached one Super

with a questionable draft record

Experience and hard work
should make Lauren Rogers one
of the top performers on the
University of Washington wom-
ens gymnastic teamthis season.
Rogers (Holy Redeemer and
Northeast Gymnastics) saw
limited action as a freshman for
the Huskies and competed in the
vault and bars in12 events, the
floor exercise in eight and the
beamtwice last season as a soph-
omore.
We expect big things from
Lauren this year, coach Joanne
Bowers said. She has gotten a
great deal of experience compet-
ing and she has worked extremely
hard in the off-season.
The vault and floor exercise
appear to be Rogers best events
going into the season.
Lauren is one of our top vaul-
ters and should be even better
this year, Bowers Said. She is a
very powerful tumbler and has a
fun floor routine that shows off
her personality. Her teammate
(Paige Bixler) choreographed the
routine for her and it is fantastic.
Rogers is no slouch on bars and
beam.
Lauren has been trying to
learn a major release move on
bars and is getting closer to catch-
ing it, Bowers said. Beamis the
event we have probably seen her
biggest improvement since last
season. We are hoping to be able
to get her into the all-around this
season and beamis the event that
she needs to hit to make it hap-
pen.
The Huskies open their season
Friday at Michigan State.
Lauren is more than just a
great gymnast, Bowers said.
She is a great student (Second
teamPac-10 academic last sea-
son) and helps our teamwin the
academic award most quarters.
She is a great person and team-
mate, someone who cares about
our university and the communi-
ty.
REYNOLDS BACKINAC-
TION After missing last season
with hand surgery, senior Angela
Reynolds is back in the lineup for
the Delaware State womens
bowling team.
Reynolds (Northwest Area)
averaged193.4 with a high game
of 243 and had eight Baker points
to help the Hornets post a 30-17
overall record and a12-8 mark in
the Mid-Eastern Athletic Confer-
ence North Division prior to the
holiday break.
Angela is one of those athletes
that give110 percent every time
she steps on the lanes, coach
Ricki Ellison said. The injury
slowed her last season but she
has battled back and is stronger
than ever.
Sophomore Ashlen Kuhar
(Crestwood) is on the squad but
has seen just limited action.
Ashlen brings athleticismto
the sport of bowling, Ellison
said. She participated in many
other sports so she has a great
understanding of the teamcon-
cept and howimportant it is to
our teams success.
The Hornets will return to the
lanes Jan. 21-22 in the NewYork
Knockdown in Brooklyn.
SWABACKSOLIDSENIOR
Matt Swaback of Kingston
(Wyoming Seminary) is in his
third season starting for the
Scranton mens basketball team.
The 6-foot-8, 210-pound senior
forward is averaging 9.4 points
and 4.9 rebounds a game. Hes hit
13 of 33 from3-point range (.394)
and has 15 assists, 11blocked
shots and eight steals to help the
Royals post a 6-4 record the first
half of the season.
Matts play has been very
solid, coach Carl Danzig said.
He is playing like a senior should
be playing. I have been very
pleased with the leadership that
he is providing and more impor-
tantly, the way he has been con-
sistent with his scoring and defen-
sive responsibilities. Its so nice to
see a young man that has worked
hard on his game doing well.
LAPUTKAHELPS HAWKS
The Hartwick mens basketball
teamposted an
11-0 record
prior to the
holiday break
and sophomore
Christian La-
putka (Hazle-
ton Area) is
doing a big job
for the Hawks off the bench.
The 5-foot-9, 155-pound guard
is averaging16.6 minutes of play
and is averaging 2.1points and 2.5
rebounds with16 assists and10
steals.
Christian has been great,
coach Todd McGuinness said.
He is such a tough player on
defense and has improved his
shooting greatly. He really has
worked on his foul shooting and
has made big strides fromthe foul
line.
The coach lauds conditioning,
leadership and toughness.
Christian is in unbelievable
shape at all times, he brings great
leadership and also brings a
toughness that we need,
McGuinness said. Hes a winner
and he has brought that to our
programas well.
MERRICKSWIMMING
WELL Freshman Ricky Merrick
(Hazleton Area) has been scoring
points in a number of events for
the Bloomsburg mens swim
team. His main events are the100
and 200 free, 100 and 200 butter-
fly, the100 backstroke and with
the 200 medley and 400 free relay
teams.
We have made some pretty
significant changes in his freestyle
and butterfly stroke, coach Stu
Marvin said. He has adjusted
very well with themand has
acclimated to our training philos-
ophy.
Merrick has posted lifetime
bests in the100 free (50.71), the
200 free (1:54.34) and the100 fly
(55.48).
We feel he will make the PSAC
qualifying time in the100 fly
(54.14) before the end of the
season, Marvin said. There is
no doubt that he will become a
big contributor in the years to
come. Hes only been with us for
12 weeks.
BURATTI HELPS SPARTANS
Sophomore Jeffrey Buratti
(Hanover Area) is a versatile
performer on the York, PAmens
swimteam.
Buratti competes mainly in the
100 and 200 breaststroke but has
scored points in the100 freestyle
and the 200 medley and 200 free
relay teams.
Jeffrey is a very determined
and committed swimmer, coach
Gina McHenry said. He con-
stantly strives to improve his
stroke and performances in the
pool. He has managed to balance
the riggers of being a student-
athlete very successfully (3.5
GPAin engineering). Jeffrey also
volunteers to host recruits and
share his York College experi-
ence.
The Spartans return to action
Saturday, Jan. 14 at Ursinus.
BIGSTARTFORCOLLEY
Freshman Gavin Colley (Tunk-
hannock) had a pair of solid per-
formances in the first two meets
of the winter season for the Wid-
ener mens indoor track team.
Colley kicked off the season by
winning the 200 meter dash
(23.35) and finishing second in
the 60 meter dash (7.09) at the
Haverford Holiday Invitational.
He followed that up by finishing
second (first Division III runner)
in the 55 meter dash (6.65) com-
peting against many Division I
and unattached runners in the
Jack Pyrah Invitational, also at
Haverford. He was also12th in
the 300 (37.03), the third best
Division III runner.
We feel fortunate to land such
a great athlete, coach Vince
Touey said. So far, he has picked
up where he left off at last sea-
sons District and State champion-
ships.
Colleys time in the 60 already
ranks himin the top five on the
Widener all-time list.
Gavin will be one of the favor-
ites to place in the league (Middle
Atlantic Conference) champion-
ships in the 60, 200 and 400 re-
lay, Touey said.
Sophomore Michael Calkins
(Dallas) is also a solid performer
for the Pride. He helped the
4x400 relay finished second in the
Haverford kickoff event (3:36.57)
and finished ninth in the 800
(2:03.61).
We believe that Michael will
be an important member of our
middle distance team, Touey
said. Mike is excited to build on
his personal best time in the 800
in last years MACOutdoor
Championships. It looks like he
will serve as a vital part of our
4x800 and distance medley teams
that look to score big at the in-
door championships (Feb. 25 at
Lehigh).
The Pride will next compete in
the GothamCup Friday, Jan. 13 in
NewYork City.
High gymnastic hopes for Redeemer grad Rogers
ON CAMPUS
B I L L A R S E N A U L T
Rodgers
placed 18th out of 23
teams, but earned three
placewinners in an event
that many coaches consid-
er more difficult than a
district tournament -- fresh-
man Zach Faust (220
pounds, fourth-place),
sophomore A.J. Luton (113,
fifth) and junior Elijah
Gresham (285, eighth).
Luton was a regional qual-
ifier last season and Gresh-
am took sixth at districts.
Its motivation for our
team and obviously for the
coaches, too, and with the
support of the parents, its
nice, Simon added. This
is actually a nice indicator
often of where kids are
going to place in districts.
Theres some pretty good
competition all over and
its good to build from
here.
GAR is starting to see
the benefits of a strong
junior high program, which
has produced many district
medalists over the last few
seasons, all while not hav-
ing an elementary team
like many other schools.
The stability not only
shows that the team may
be ready for success this
season, but for years to
come.
You can tell that, obvi-
ously, were turning the
page for the program and
its a good thing, Simon
noted. Were very young
and, hopefully, well bring
more guys up next year
that will complement these
guys. As long as they keep
working hard and do what
theyre doing, we have a
great future.
LETS GET READY TO
RUMBLE
The WVC season official-
ly kicks off tonight with
six key duals. One of the
biggest pits Meyers versus
Dallas.
The Mohawks were the
only team that stood in the
way of the Mountaineers
claiming the division and
district duals champion-
ship last season, as both
titles were decided by a
total of three points.
In Division I, Pittston
Area travels to Crestwood
in a battle of the top two
D-I teams from last year.
If youre looking to see
another intriguing meet,
head to Coughlin, where
the Crusaders will host
Wyoming Valley West.
Those two meets could be
huge indicators of how D-I
plays out.
Tunkhannock is at Ha-
zleton Area in another
Division I match, while
Hanover Area at Wyoming
Area and GAR at Lake-
Lehman finish out the
circuit for the night. Ber-
wick and Nanticoke have
byes.
PREMIER MATCHUPS?
This is the third consec-
utive year for the Wyoming
Valley Conference Tourna-
ment, which will be held
Friday and Saturday at
Lake-Lehman. Everyone
will be waiting to see
where Meyers Vito Pasone
and Wyoming Valley Wests
Kyle Krasavage weigh in
at, as both are ranked
highly in the state, accord-
ing to Premier PA Rank-
ings.
Pasone sits fourth in
Class 2A at 120 pounds,
according to the publi-
cation, while Krasavage is
seventh in 3A at 126. Both
are past state qualifiers,
with Pasone finishing sev-
enth last season.
Another top matchup
features Hazleton Areas
Chad Hoffman against
Nanticokes Pedro Bracero
at 195. Hoffman is coming
off an eighth-place showing
in the states 3A tourna-
ment in 2010 and is fifth
according to Premier PA
Rankings. Bracero just won
the Tunkhannock Kiwanis
Tournament and is ranked
15th in Class 2A.

their clients are finalists to suc-
ceed Joe Paterno, the ongoing
coaching search is becoming
more and more convoluted.
Though recent reports have
labeled a pair of pro offensive
coordinators -- Bill OBrien of
the New England Patriots and
Greg Roman of the San Francis-
co 49ers -- as leading conten-
ders for the job, neither man
closely fits the ideal profile sug-
gested by acting athletic direc-
tor Dave Joyner.
Speaking to a radio station in
his native New Jersey on Tues-
day, Roman called Penn State
a lifetime job.
Thats a job, if I were to be-
come the head coach there, I
wouldnt leave there, Roman
told ESPN Radio 93.7. Id be
back East, setting up camp, Id
be at the (Jersey) Shore in the
summer. And that would be my
routine.
Roman said he spoke with
Penn State officials about a
month ago and said they were
extremely focused on finding
the best person they could un-
der the unique circumstances
there.
For his part, Joyner has said
multiple times in the past week
that no leading candidate exists
and that interviews are ongo-
ing.
But the sheer length of the
process has left many frustrat-
ed. Now nearly two months
since Joe Paterno was fired,
there remains no clarity for the
remnants of the staff, the play-
ers slated to return or the
recruits interested in the pro-
gram.
National signing day is Feb.
1, and each day that passes cuts
into the new coachs time to in-
teract with current and pro-
spective players.
So how late is too late?
Thats a tough question,
said co-defensive coordinator
Larry Johnson, widely regarded
as one of the nations top recrui-
ters. Because we dont know
when its going to happen. We
just continue to sell what were
selling. Tell the players that
whoever comes in, its going to
be Penn State. Its not going to
change.
Hopefully we can hold onto
some of those players and not
lose anybody during the proc-
ess.
Local standout Eugene Lewis
is one of those players. He has
said repeatedly he is commit-
ted to Penn State while waiting
to see who the next coach will
be.
Johnson, who has inter-
viewed for the head job himself,
would be a popular choice to be
retained by the new coach.
Players speak glowingly of his
character, and he has had great
success in sending defensive li-
nemen to the NFL.
After the game Monday,
Johnson said he would love to
stay on as an assistant if its
the right situation, the right
coach who takes over.
But with no guarantees, he
finds himself having to prepare
to leave.
You think that it could be
your last time in the Penn State
coaching gear, Johnson said.
You reflect. Theres some
great players in that locker
room -- Im sorry if I get emo-
tional. Theres some great play-
ers in that locker room, and to
say goodbye to those guys to
walk away from those guys is
really unfinished business for
me.
Jay Paterno expressed a simi-
lar sentiment, saying that he
"absolutely" would like to con-
tinue on at Penn State.
It does cross your mind
when you walk off the field the
last time that it may be the last
time you coach at Penn State,
he said.
It may not. Im sure theres
some people that hope it is the
last time that I walk off the field
as a Penn State coach. Who
knows?
But thats all in Gods plan.
Its out of my hands.
COACHES
Continued from Page 1B
CLEVELAND Rookie Kyrie
Irving scored 20 points and
veteran Antawn Jamison had 19,
leading the Cleveland Cavaliers
to a 115-101 win over the Char-
lotte Bobcats on Tuesday night.
Cleveland continued its
strong 3-point shooting, making
10 of 21 from behind the arc.
The Cavaliers made 16 of 26
attempts from 3-point range
Sunday, falling one short of the
team record in a 98-82 home
win over New Jersey. Back-to-
back 3s by Daniel Gibson gave
the Cavaliers a 103-86 lead mid-
way through the fourth quarter.
Rookie Tristan Thompson
added 16 points for Cleveland,
which moved over .500 for the
first time since Nov. 9, 2010,
when it was 4-3. The Cavaliers
finished last season with a 19-67
record.
D.J. Augustin scored a season-
high 26 points for the Bobcats,
who have lost four straight since
opening the season with a 96-95
home win over Milwaukee on
Dec. 26.
Charlotte coach Paul Silas
was whistled for a technical foul
for arguing with an official in
the fourth quarter with the
Bobcats trailing 108-91.

Lehman winery closing
A Lehman Township winery has
announced that it will close for busi-
ness in February but not before selling
off its stock at a 30 percent discount.
Pavlick Hill Vineyard announced on
its website that its last day will be Feb.
29.
This was a very difficult decision for
us to make, but we are very grateful for
the experience and the chance to meet
so many wonderful people, read a
message on the site left by owners
Denise and Bill Karlotski.
The couple opened the winery in
2009 along Route 118 using grapes
from their 1-acre vineyard nearby. The
winery has been closed for the holidays
and will reopen on Saturday.
State tax revenue lags
Pennsylvania collected $2.3 billion in
General Fund revenue in December,
which was 5.9 percent less than antici-
pated, Secretary of Revenue Daniel
Meuser said in a press release. Fiscal
year-to-date general fund collections
total $11.6 billion, which is $486.8
million, or 4 percent, below estimate.
Year-to-date corporation tax collec-
tions are 17.6 percent below estimate
and real estate transfer taxes are down
6.1 percent. Tax collections on ciga-
rette, liquor and table games are 1.3
percent above estimate.
Moses Taylor sale closes
Community Health Systems Inc. on
Tuesday announced the acquisition of
the 217-bed Moses Taylor Hospital in
Scranton and the 25-bed Mid-Valley
Hospital in Peckville.
The $152 million deal was approved
by a Lackawanna County judge last
month.
Community Health Systems, a for-
profit company based near Nashville,
Tenn., also owns Wyoming Valley
Health Care System and the former
Mercy hospitals in Scranton and Nanti-
coke.
Starbucks hiking prices
Starbucks said Tuesday it is raising
prices about 1 percent in the Northeast
and Sunbelt regions. Starbucks
wouldnt disclose all of the states its
raising prices, but the regions include
Atlanta, Boston, New York; Washing-
ton, D.C., and most Southern states.
The price for a tall coffee will go
up 10 cents in the regions, and the
chain will raise prices on about six
other beverages.

BUSINESS S E C T I O N B
timesleader.com
OKLAHOMA CITY Che-
sapeake Energy Corp. said
Tuesday it will sell part of its
Ohio oil and gas business to a
unit of French energy compa-
ny Total SA.
Total will pay Chesapeake
and a smaller partner $2.32
billion for access to Chesa-
peakes 619,000 acres in Ohio
with a 25 percent ownership
interest.
The land, spread across 10
Ohio counties, sits atop the
oil-rich Utica shale formation.
The petroleum industry re-
cently has been clamoring to
tap the Utica shale as oil pric-
es rise.
Doing so requires drillers to
tunnel several thousand feet
below the surface and employ
a technique called hydraulic
fracturing to unlock oil and
gas trapped within.
The price for benchmark oil
in the U.S. jumped 19 percent
in 2011, and many analysts ex-
pect crude prices to rise fur-
ther in 2012.
Chesapeake, based in Okla-
homa City, has been aggres-
sively snapping up land in the
U.S. to give it more access to
oil deposits. The company
owns 1.5 million acres with ac-
cess to Utica shale.
Overall, it plans to more
than double its oil production
in the next two years, with
production reaching 72 mil-
lion to 76 million barrels in
2013.
The company also is active
in natural gas drilling in the

INDIANAPOLIS Super
Bowl spots are still the hot-
test ticket in advertising.
NBC has sold all the com-
mercial airtime for the Feb. 5
game in Indianapolis and
even has a waiting list of ad-
vertisers. Theaveragecost for
a 30-secondspot this year was
$3.5 million, with some time
slots costing as much as $4
million.
Seth Winter, senior vice
president of NBC Sports
groupsales &marketing, said
in a recent interview that the
last time slot was sold just af-
ter Thanksgiving. Ayear ago,
Fox Sports saidit soldthe last
of its advertising spots before
the end of October.
Slots are still available dur-
ing NBCs pregame show, and
those on the waiting list for
the Super Bowl will have an
opportunity to advertise if
other companies give uptheir
slot.
There are the usual com-
panies that have supported it
in the past, Winter said. Au-
tomotive will be very healthy.
Beverages will be very
healthy. The movie and snack
category continue to be
healthy. There will be a few
new players and some who
have been there, who wont
be there.
Winter declined to identify
which companies bought ads
or dropped out. Anheuser-
Busch InBev, Coca-Cola and
Godaddy.com are among the
recent regulars.
The biggest change this
year, Winter said, is advertis-
ers are booking longer spots
to showcase their creativity.
Some of the things Ive
seen are astonishing, Winter
said. I think youll see a lot of
ads that are humorous andac-
tion-filled, with a range of dif-
ferent types of executions. We
havent seen everything yet;
we dont see everything until
almost the week of (the
game).
Sports fans also might see
the ads more regularly,
thanks to NBCs merger with
Comcast.

LOSANGELESAmajor expansion
of the Panama Canal is raising alarms on
the West Coast, where business, labor
and public officials are warning that the
project threatens to dent the regions
role in international trade.
The$5.25billionproject will makethe
canal wider and deeper, allowing huge
freighters from Asia to bypass West
Coast ports and head straight to termi-
nals on the Gulf Coast and East Coast.
The neighboring ports of Los Angeles
and Long Beach, which together handle
about 40 percent of the nations import-
ed Asian goods, could lose as much as a
quarter of their cargo business by some
estimates after the Panama expansion is
completed in 2014.
The ports, neighboring towns and
railroads have launched improvement
projects aimed at keeping themcompet-
itive. Oneproposedproject, for instance,
would speed the loading of cargo onto
trains; others eliminate bottlenecks or
increase capacity so that the ports re-
main alluring to importers.
The Jobs 1st Alliance fears that the
ports could lose as many as 100,000 jobs
whenthe Panama Canal overhaul allows
much larger ships to bypass California.
The biggest ships that can squeeze
through the Panama Canal now carry
4,400 to 5,000 containers. But modern
cargo vessels routinely hold three times
as many of the big metal boxes. So im-
porters often use West Coast ports to
land their products from Asia. Then the
containers crammed with apparel, toys
and other goods move from ships to
trucks or trains and on to warehouses
and retailer shelves throughout the U.S.
A wider Panama Canal would accom-
modate some of the biggest ships afloat
12,600-container vessels which
will present a vastly improved all wa-
ter cargo movement option for Asian
goods bound for the southern and east-
ern U.S.
Jobs1st Alliance is worried by the effi-
ciency that Panamanian authorities
have shown in keeping the project on
schedule and their zeal in pursuing busi-
ness with other ports, said Wally Baker,
president of the alliance.
By contrast, U.S public and private ef-
forts launched in response to the Pana-
ma project are being slowed by red tape
and lawsuits, said Baker. About 65 pro-
jects totaling about $7.5 billion need to
be expedited to keep Southern Califor-
nia on top, Baker said. Among those is
BNSF Railways Southern California In-
ternational Gateway Project, designed
to speed rail movement and reduce
truck traffic and diesel emissions.

outside this
morning are nor-

time of year in
Minneapolis. But
thankfully we
are far from the
record low of 9
below set back
in 1981. Indeed,
that was a
wicked cold
wave with Mt.
Pocono report-
ing 23 below
zero. After some
early morning
sunshine today,
skies will turn
cloudy and there
might be a brief
period of light
snow this after-
noon. By
Thursday morn-
ing, this cold
wave will be over
and tempera-
tures will rise
above freezing
during the day.
The weather
looks good for
travel on Friday
and Saturday.
Our high today
will be 25. The
high today in
Minneapolis will
be 34.

NATIONAL FORECAST: A cold front will provide a few snow showers from the eastern Great Lakes
into portions of the Northeast. A second cold front will approach the Northwest with rain over the
Pacic Northwest and a mix of rain and snow over the Cascades of Washington. High pressure will be
in control of the weather across much of the nation.

WHILE
TRAVELING
recently with
my family, we
stopped for
lunch. We are
in prime soup
season, and my favorite thing
to have on a chilly day is a
great bowl of soup, so I ordered
Charred Carrot Soup. It sound-
ed different, and I always love
to try new items that promise a
variety of flavors. The soup was
bursting with flavor and it
delivered in all aspects.
The next day at work I
couldnt stop thinking about
how wonderful and memorable
it was, so I created my own
version of Charred Carrot
Soup. Im sure you will find the
flavor profile unique, yet pleas-
ing. The slow cooking and
charring of the carrots bring
out their natural sweetness,
blending with the other in-
gredients to create an excep-
tional soup.
I garnished the soup with
flash-fried carrot straws, which
added a contrast of texture to
the smooth puree. If you would
rather enjoy my creation with-
out the work, Vanderlyns will
offer Charred Carrot Soup this
week beginning today, while
supplies last. For reservations
or additional features call Van-
derlyns at 283-6260. Our web-
site is www.vanderlyns.com.
CHARRED CARROT SOUP

Yield: 3 quarts
Ingredients:
10 carrots, peeled, cut on the
bias
2 ounces anchovy fillets

2 quarts chicken stock
2 tablespoons honey
1
8 teaspoon ground rosemary
Salt and pepper, to taste
Olive oil, as needed
6 ounces carrots, julienned,
flash fried
Method of preparation:
1. Toss carrots with the olive oil,
salt and pepper; place on baking
pan.
2. Slow roast the carrots on
baking pan at 300 F for five hours
or until caramelized and charred.
3. After carrots are charred,
place olive oil in a stock pot; saut
anchovies, shallots and garlic
briefly.
4. Deglaze with sherry; simmer
one minute.
5. Add chicken stock, bring to
boil and simmer 30 minutes.
6. Add honey, ground rosemary,
salt and pepper.

more chicken stock as needed and
seasonings.

The animosity about the Euro might
just be mitigated if European communi-
ty leaders broke bread together and
topped the bread with chocolate-hazel-
nut spread.
In America and indeed, across
Europe and elsewhere in the world
the best-known version is Nutella.
The Ferrero company traces Nutellas
origins to Pietro Ferrero, who formulat-
ed a loaf form of what was then called
pasta gianduja to extend war-rationed
chocolate during World War II.
Yes, this is the same Ferrero company
that now makes Ferrero Rocher candies
and also, oddly enough, Tic Tacs.
The original loaves evolved into a jarred
cream, which was branded as Nutella in
1964 and first sold in America in 1983.
But other chocolate-hazelnut spreads
are manufactured in countries across
Europe. We collected several of these
as well as one from the United States
to see how they compare with Ferreros
standard-bearer.
The classic way to enjoy Nutella is
slathered on bread (or crepes), often
topped with banana slices. For variation,
weve provided recipes for Nutella Tar-
tine (an open-face Nutella-and-marma-
lade sandwich), Nutella Ice Cream and
(why not?) Sweet and Spicy Nutella-
Coated Bacon.
And mark your calendar: Feb. 5 is
World Nutella Day. (Really.)
The website NutellaDay.com already
has more than 500 recipes from its read-
ers.
Perhaps youll create and submit a
masterpiece of your own before then.
NUTELLA ICE CREAM

Yield: 4 servings
1 cup Nutella
3/4 cup granulated sugar or less to taste
(see testers note)
1 cup whole milk
1 1/3 cups heavy cream
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1. Mix Nutella and sugar until completely
combined, then add milk. Mix until mixture
is smooth and sugar is dissolved.
2. Stir in heavy cream and the vanilla.
Cover and chill until cold.
3. Transfer mixture to an ice-cream mak-
er and process according to manufacturers
directions. For a firmer texture, transfer ice
cream to a small freezer-safe container,
press plastic wrap against the top of the ice
cream, and freeze for at least 4 hours.
Per serving: 865 calories; 54g fat; 27g
saturated fat; 115mg cholesterol; 10g protein;
87g carbohydrate; 83g sugar; 2g fiber;
85mg sodium; 200mg calcium.
Testers note: Using the full amount of
sugar results in a sweetness similar to most
supermarket ice creams. Using 3/4 cup
sugar or even omitting the added sugar
entirely results in dessert closer to a
dark-chocolate ice cream.
Adapted from a recipe on the Carries
Sweet Life blog (carriessweetlife.com) linked

day.com).

Nuts for Nutella: Spread spurs cravings, imitators
A
big pot of chili is a
great cold-weather
go-to dish that easily
feeds a crowd.
Its one of those dishes where
people take sides; variations
are all over the map. The bowl
of red you whip up can have its
roots in a region or state. In
Texas, beans are a no-no. Cin-
cinnati-style chili is servedover
spaghetti.
The International Chili Socie-
ty defines chili as any kind of
meat cooked with chili peppers,
spices andother ingredients such
as broth and onions. If you want
to enter ICS-sanctioned chili
events, dont even think about
adding beans.
The secret for competition chi-
li is all in the spices, texture and
taste. Chili cooks covet their se-
cret spice mixtures, often mail-
ordering them or using only cer-
tain brands.
For everyday cooks, chili is a
good way to use up ingredients.
My ideal chili has a good spicy
kick thats not overpowering. Its
just not fun, in my opinion, if all
you taste is heat and cant enjoy
the other ingredients. I also like a
certain texture just shy of the
thickness of pasta sauce, not too
thick and not too thin.
I typically avoid using ground
beef in chili, which makes what I
call hamburger soup. I prefer
cubed or diced beef, and thats
what most chili competitors use.
The key to cubing or dicing
beef with little effort (especially
if youre makinga lot of chili) is to
make sure its well-chilled. If the
beef is too warm, its squishy, and
the pieces wont be even in size.
Place the meat on a plate and in
the freezer for at least 30 min-
utes. Take it out, immediately cut
it into strips, then into cubes.
Having said that, I can say that
Im not a food snob, either, and I
had a pound of ground beef

SWEET AND SPICY

NUTELLA-COATED
BACON
Yield: 6 servings
1 tablespoon light brown sugar
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
6 thick slices bacon (1/2 to 3/4
pound)
3 tablespoons Nutella
Fleur de sel or another coarse
salt
1. Preheat the oven to 375 de-
grees. Combine brown sugar, chili
powder and black pepper in a small
bowl and set aside.
2. Spray a rimmed baking sheet
with nonstick cooking spray. Ar-
range bacon slices on baking sheet,
making sure they do not overlap.
Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, depend-
ing on desired doneness, then
remove from oven and carefully
flip bacon slices.
3. Sprinkle each slice liberally
with sugar-pepper mixture. Return
to oven and bake for an additional
8 to 10 minutes. Cool bacon slices
on paper towels until approximate-
ly room temperature.
4. When bacon has cooled, place
Nutella into a small bowl and mi-
crowave on high for approximately
15 to 20 seconds, until softened.
Transfer bacon slices to a piece of
parchment paper on a baking
sheet or large plate. Using a silicon

tucked away in the freezer, so I
used it in this recipe, along
with three lonely green peppers
and thin beef strip steaks.
The seasoning is from com-
mon pantry spices. One of my
favorite mild chili powders is
ground ancho chili. Its a mild-
flavored powder with more
smokiness than heat.
EASY BEEF AND

VEGGIE CHILI
Makes: about 14 cups
Preparation time: 25 minutes
Total time: 2 hours
Place the steak in the freezer
for about 20 minutes. It will be
easier to cut into small pieces.
SEASONING MIXTURE
4 tablespoons ancho chili powder
4 tablespoons regular chili powd-
er
2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
1 heaping tablespoon garlic powd-
er
1 teaspoon favorite all-purpose
seasoning (such as Goya com-
plete seasoning)
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
CHILI
Continued from Page 1C
The International Chili Society defines
chili as any kind of meat cooked
with chili peppers, spices and other
ingredients such as broth and onions.
CHILI
1 tablespoon canola oil
1/2 pound thin strip steak,
trimmed of fat
1 pound ground chuck
1 jumbo onion, peeled, ends re-
moved, diced small
3 green peppers, washed, diced
small
2 jalapeno peppers
1 chipotle pepper in adobo, op-
tional
8 ounces cremini mushrooms,
thinly sliced
1 can (28 ounces) crushed toma-
toes
1 can (15 ounces) stewed toma-
toes
1 can (15 ounces) fire-roasted
diced tomatoes
6 ounces no-salted added toma-
to paste
4 cups fat-free less-sodium beef
broth
In a small bowl, mix together
the seasoning ingredients and set
aside. Taste and adjust if neces-
sary; you may want more chili
powder. In a large stockpot, heat
the oil over medium-high heat. Cut
the strip steak into 1/4-inch pieces.
Add the steak and ground beef to
the pot and cook until browned.
Add the onion, green and jalapeno
peppers, and, if using, the chipotle
pepper. Cook until the onion slight-
ly browns. Add the mushrooms
and saute until they release their
liquid and brown a bit. Sprinkle
with a few tablespoons of the
seasoning mixture. Cook a few
minutes.
Add the crushed tomatoes,
stewed tomatoes, diced tomatoes,
tomato paste and beef broth.
Reserve and set aside several
tablespoons of the seasoning
mixture and stir in the rest. Bring
to just a slight boil, then reduce
heat to a simmer, cover slightly
and cook about 1 1/2 hours. Just
before serving, stir in the reserved
seasoning mixture. If the chili
seems thin, mix 2 teaspoons of
cornstarch with a couple of tea-
spoons of the chili liquid and stir
back into the chili. Bring to just a
boil and cook 1 minute or until it
thickens.
Garnish with shredded cheese,
if desired.

Everyone hates high heat bills. But
were all sick and tired of turning the
thermostat down and freezing our
buns off.
Thats why Sears knew they had a
home-run on their hands with the first-
ever low-cost appliance with Hybrid-
Thermic heat technology. And no
other heater anywhere has it.
The brand-newportable L.E.D. Heat
Surge HTsips so little energy, you can
run it for a full 12-hour day or night for
just about a buck.
This modern marvel, hailed as the
zone heating Miracle Heater, caused
such a frenzy at Sears stores, one
shopper refused to leave until she got
one. Since there were none in stock,
store managers were forced to hand
over the stores only floor model,
against store policy.
So today, immediate action is being
taken to give more people, more ways
to get them.
Beginning at 8:30 a.m., todays read-
ers are allowed to phone in or snag
one online. Heat Surge even posted a
2-Day Double Coupon which has been
reprinted on this page for todays
readers to use.
By using this coupon, everyone
who calls is being rewarded with
$227. That makes this remarkable
new home appliance a real steal
at just $299. Since this is a Double
Coupon Deal, it not only gives you
an extraordinary discount, but also
entitles you to free shipping and
handling, totaling $227 off. So now
everyone has a fair shot at getting
one.
Folks are saving money every-
where by zone heating with the new
Heat Surge HT, said Kris Rumel,
the companys analyst tracking the
impact Heat Surge is having on con-
sumer heat bills.
Thi s al l start ed when Sears
wanted the world-famous Amish
Miracle Heater that everyone was
asking for.
The shy but now famous Amish
craftsman said Sears made the most
sense. Id reckon theyre the oldest
and most trusted in the country, one
of the Amish craftsmen known as
Melvin said.
Weve been saving folks money, big
money. And we know it because were
hearin about it, he said.
They know about our quality. No
particle board, just real wood. Fully-
assembled cabinets by our hands and
were making them right here in the
good ole USA, Melvin said.
Di rector of Technology David
Mar t i n expl ai ned, The Heat
Surge HT is a revolutionary appli-
ance that can easily roll from room
to room. But we didnt want it to look
like some metal box that just sits
there. So we turned to our Amish
craftsmen and now each one is made
to look like a sleek, slim fireplace that
has no real flames.
The peacef ul f l i cker of the
Fi reless Flame is so beauti ful,
everyone thinks its real, but its
totally safe to the touch. All you do is
just plug it in, Martin said.
People from Maine to Mississippi
and even Florida and Arizona are
flocking to get them because they are
finally able to give their central heat a
rest during this long, frigid winter.
According to the avalanche of con-
sumer reviews, people absolutely
swear by them, repeatedly saying, it
saves money, looks beautiful, and
keeps you warm head to toe, floor to
ceiling. And the word is getting out.
Thats why people are clamoring to
get them.
But Martin said right now the real
problem is making sure the Amish
craftsmen can keep up with the lin-
gering winter rush.
Thats why the Double Coupon
expires in two days.
So for readers hoping to get the new
Heat Surge for themselves and take
care of gifts for others, there is good
news.
You can use the 2-Day Double
Coupon more than once. But there is
a catch. You can only get away with
it for the next two days from the
date of todays publication by call-
ing the National Appliance Center at
1-800-618-8510.
Then, when it arrives, youll be
rushing to turn down that thermo-
stat. Just plug it in, watch your heat
bills hit rock bottom, and never be
cold again.
GOTTA HAVE ONE: People are flocking to Sears stores everywhere to get the brand-new Heat Surge HT. An eager crowd remained respectful as Jonas Miller
stages a promotional delivery event. I heard so much about the Amish Miracle Heater but couldnt find where to get one, an excited Mary Straughn said. Thats
why a National Appliance Hotline has been set up for todays readers who cant rush out to get one. Readers who call the Hotline at 1-800-618-8510 will get free
delivery with an extraordinary 2-Day Double Coupon that has been reprinted below.
How It Works: You get 74 of bone-soothing room heat even when the
home thermostat is turned down to 59 with the rst-ever Heat Surge HT
BLANKET FREE COMFORT: We just couldnt take another winter of al-
ways being cold. And we also got one for the kids to help them with their
heat bills, Julia White said.
An avalanche of unsolicited consumer reviews gives the company the reason to boast an overwhelming
Consumer Best Buy on the HeatReport.com website. Consumers should be aware of the fakes out there.
This Hybrid-Thermic Miracle Heater can never be found at Wal-Mart, not at Lowes, not at Home Depot, and
none of the Club Stores. Accept no imitations. If it does not have the Heat Surge name on it, it is not real Amish and it is not Hybrid-Thermic. I repeat, if it does
not have the Heat Surge name on it, you are getting ripped off, said Heat Surge Chief Compliance Ofcer, Bob Knowles. The Heat Surge has earned the coveted
Underwriters Laboratories certication and is protected by a limited full year replacement or money back warranty and 30-day Satisfaction Guarantee.

MODERN MARVEL: The revolutionary
Heat Surge HT micro-furnace fits in any room
because its packed inside a small Amish-built
cabinet that measures just 25" high, 18" wide,
and 12" deep.
This is the revolutionary Heat Surge HT, the rst-ever appliance with Hybrid-Thermic heat technology.
Hybrid-Thermic heat technology is an engineering genius so advanced, it actually uses a micro-furnace
from the Coast of China and a thermal heat exchanger to perform its miracles. The thermal heat exchanger
acts like the rays of the sun to heat you, the kids, the pets and everything else. The micro-furnace then
heats all the surrounding air. Together, this Hybrid-Thermic heat technology warms both you and the air
around you, taking care of all the cold spots. In fact, it actually produces bone-soothing heat to help you
feel good.
This modern marvel uses L.E.D. technology and just a trickle of electricity and saves you money based
on a U.S. average that says it uses only about 9 of electricity an hour on the standard setting, yet it pro-
duces up to an amazing 4,606 British Thermal Units (BTUs) on the high setting. But heres the big surprise.
Its not just a metal box that be-
longs in a basement. The Heat
Surge HT is a showpiece in any
room. Thats because it has the
ambiance of a real replace, but
it has no real ames. Its Fireless
Flame technology makes it safe
to the touch.
The portable Heat Surge HT
comes installed in a genuine
Amish-built wood cabinet made
in the heartland of Ohio. They are
hand-rubbed, stained, and var-
nished. When it arrives, all you
do is just plug it in.

O N T H E W E B
Dear Abby: My long-
distance boyfriend,
Wayne, moved here
two years ago to take
a job working for my
twin sister Kims
mentor. After five
months on the job,
Wayne was terminated and was re-
placed by my sister!
Wayne and I were unaware that
Kim had been having an affair with
this much-older married father of
two. He has now left his wife and kids
and is living with my sister. Kim is
enjoying her job as his assistant and
reaping all the benefits of his long-
established business.
It frustrates me that after months
of deception, my twin is benefiting
from a massive indiscretion that
ended a marriage and destroyed a
family. We were always close, but I
dont want to include her lover in any
upcoming events in my life. She says
theyre a package deal. How do I
move past this or should I?
Deceived by My Evil Twin
Dear Deceived: Im not sure what
upcoming events in your life youre
referring to, but if they include
Wayne, his feelings should be taken
into consideration. How angry and re-
sentful will he feel if hes forced to in-
teract with the man who fired him so
he could be replaced by your sister?
I cant decide for you how you will
work this out, but I will offer this
advice: For the present, make no hard
and fast decisions. This could play
out in any number of ways. Her boss
could marry her, or he could return
to his wife and family. Wait and see
what the future brings.
Dear Abby: I am a single adult fe-
male. I have a neighbor and friend Ill
call Kurt. He has been terrific to me.
He has given me things, taken me out
a few times and seems very caring. I
enjoy the time we spend together and
I have developed romantic feelings
for him. My problem is Kurt is gay.
I know I cant have the kind of
relationship with him that Id like to.
Once, we spent the whole day togeth-
er and I spent the whole time wishing
it had been a real date. It seems like
whenever we go out together I dont
know how to handle the situation. I
could use some advice on this.
So Near And Yet So Far in Texas
Dear Near And Far: You and Kurt
appear to be compatible on many lev-
els, but you must accept that he can-
not give you the romantic love youre
looking for. He isnt wired that way.
Wishing, hoping and dreaming wont
change that but it WILL waste
your time and prevent you from look-
ing for eligible men.
You need to put the brakes on this
friendship until you have regained
your balance and/or have met some-
one else. And tell Kurt why, so his
feelings wont be hurt. Im betting it
wont be the first time hes heard it.
Dear Abby: Is a grandmother being
disrespectful when she purposely
continues to misspell her 12-year-old
grandsons name on cards and gifts?
His Name is Joe!
DEAR H.N.I.J.!: I cant say for
certain. She may be letting you know
shes disappointed you didnt name
the boy after his grandfather
Morris. She could also be illiterate
or somewhat demented, but Im
betting shes letting you know shes
not happy with the name you chose.

To receive a collection of Abbys most memo-
rable and most frequently requested po-
ems and essays, send a business-sized, self-
addressed envelope, plus check or money
order for $3.95 ($4.50 in Canada) to: Dear
Abbys Keepers, P.O. Box 447, Mount Mor-
ris, IL 61054-0447. (Postage is included.)
ARIES (March 21-April 19). You
started out working hard
because you liked a certain per-
son and you wanted this persons
approval. Now you just work
hard because it feels right to
do it.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Youll
feel impatient. Your diligence will
make a difference, though not
in one day. Commit to doing the
same action for three weeks, and
youll be amazed at where you
wind up.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You feel
protective, recognizing how
fragile people really can be. Your
conscientiousness extends not
only to your loved ones, but to
people you dont even know.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Youll
get the kind of rare challenge
that focuses your thoughts.
Instead of being reactive and
critical, youll be active and
creative, bringing all your knowl-
edge to bear on the situation.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Something
that now requires a great deal
of discipline to accomplish will
require far less discipline once
youve established a series of
habits to support the activity.
Keep going.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You
may be in a position to report to
another person about your work,
but no one is really the boss of
you. Youll take charge and feel
in control.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Action
doesnt have to be momentous
and revolutionary to create prog-
ress. What occurs out of consis-
tent, small steps will be remark-
able, meaningful and crucial to
the big picture.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Your
general excitement about life
will stir up something brave in
your soul. Youll need to put all
that energy into something, and
today brings an endeavor just
risky enough to appeal to you.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
You are changing, and the envi-
ronment around you will trans-
form to meet your new needs.
What brought you pleasure yes-
terday is not the same thing that
will bring you happiness.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). It
takes strength to move a rela-
tionship forward. Being willing
to let others lead once in a while
shows both qualities at the same
time.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
Theres something you need to
know, and youll set a kind of
trap to try to get the information
you want. You may not realize
exactly what youre doing. So
many of the games people play
happen on subconscious levels.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
Someone with a similar back-
ground is the most fun person to
be around today. No matter how
far away you are from where you
grew up, youll feel like youre
home.
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (Jan. 4). This
year your creativity will be met
with inspired action, and the
result will be explosive success.
March is your chance to trade
in old baggage for shiny new
luggage and youll take a trip
to celebrate, too. New profes-
sional situations open up in July.
Sagittarius and Taurus people
adore you. Your lucky numbers
are: 20, 14, 43, 6 and 28.
