WILKES-BARRE A search
warrant application that has
been redacted by law enforce-
ment officials could explain the
link between a house and the
shooting death of a city teen.
Elijah Yusiff said he was the
last person known to see Tyler
Winstead alive on the night of
April 5.
Yusiff, living
at 117 Hill St.,
claimed he
heard a gun-
shot and saw a
man driving
away in a red
vehicle.
Tyler, 14,
was found outside Yusiffs house
witha fatal gunshot woundtohis
chest.
Investigators earlier this week
served a search warrant at Yu-
siffs house.
While the three-page search
warrant affidavit was sealed, the
top half of the application was re-
dacted from the sealed envelope
that is in a safe at the county
Clerkof Courts Office. The appli-
cation is usually attached on the
outside of the sealed documents.

embers of the group Changing Habits perform during intermission of the Seniors Have Talent program held
Thursday at Mohegan Sun At Pocono Downs in Plains Township. The event was sponsored by Hospice Communi-
ty Care, HCC Home Health/Celtic Healthcare and Mohegan Sun. Proceeds raised from event go toward PA Vent
Camp, one of several camps in the U.S. specifically set up to meet the needs of ventilator-dependent children and
teens.
KINGSTON -- Gene Stilp brought
two of his pink pigs to Thursday
nights debate, but he was asked to
deflate them by Wyoming Seminary
officials.
But Stilps spirits werent deflated,
as he and Bill Vinsko -- the two Demo-
cratic candidates in the 11th Congres-
sional District --
squared off in a debate
before about 100 peo-
ple in the Buckingham
Performing Arts Cen-
ter.
In a show of respect,
Stilp and Vinsko
signed a Clean Campaign Pledge,
noting that with 12 days left until the
April 24th primary, they have not en-
gaged in negative campaigning. The
winner of the primary will face in-
cumbent Republican U.S. Rep. Lou
Barletta of Hazleton in the November
general election.
Good campaigns start at home,
Stilp said. We can set an example for
other races.
Vinsko agreed, saying he will work
with Stilp after the primary regard-
less of who wins.
Mischelle Anthony of the League of
Women Voters, debate sponsor, served
as moderator and the candidates field-
ed questions prepared by the League
and submitted by audience members.
Vinsko, 37, of South Wilkes-Barre,
won the coin toss and opened by say-
ing there are three major issues -- jobs
creation, protection for Social Securi-
ty and Medicare and funding of educa-
tion.
Stilp, 61, of Middle Paxton Town-
ship, Dauphin County, is a native of
Wilkes-Barre. He said his issues are
basically the same as Vinskos -- jobs,
the economy, help for senior citizens
and education.
Vinsko said he has the experience
and qualifications to do the job he
dreamed of as a child. He said he has

WILKES-BARRE Thursdays
Wall Street Journal featured a
national story on congressional
redistricting, with Pennsylvanias
11th District the main focus of the
report.
Written by Naftali Bendavid, the
story addresses the GOP-favored
congressional redistricting, result-
ing in U.S. Rep. Lou Barlettas
improved chances for re-election.
Bendavid wrote: In seeking
re-election, Republican Rep. Lou
Barletta might expect to be get-

from a Democratic-leaning district
where he lost twice before, he
proceeded to vote a nearly

HANOVERTWP. Acompany
that makes ceramics for the aero-
space industry says it will add 80
jobs over the next three years by
consolidating an out-of-state fa-
cility with its plant in the Hanov-
er Industrial Estates.
According to the office of Gov.
Tom Corbett, Certech Inc. will
consolidate its molded ceramic
component operations into its
63,000-square-foot local facility,
adding 80 jobs to its existing
workforce of 185.
Certechalsowill purchase new
equipment and train new em-
ployees at the facility.
Mike Kuzdzal, vice president
and general manager for Certech
North America, wouldnt say
where the other facility is locat-
ed, only that it is outside Pennsyl-
vania, or howmany layoffs would
take place there, because the
plant consolidation has not been
announced at that plant.
The Pennsylvania facility is
newer with a good work force
with good performance, Kuzd-
zal said. And its nice to reward
that effort and accomplishment
with additional work and job se-
curity.
The company also received a
total of $346,000 in funding from
the Department of Community
and Economic Development, in-
cluding $160,000 in job creation
tax credits, $36,000 in job-train-
ing assistance and a $150,000
state grant.
Larry Newman, vice president
of Economic andCommunity De-
velopment for the Greater
Wilkes-Barre Chamber of Busi-
ness and Industry, called the ex-
pansion of the Hanover Town-
ship plant a victory for the area
that recognizes the strong manu-
facturing base in Northeastern
Pennsylvania.
Its always critical for our com-
munity to be able to demonstrate
that we have the ability to com-
pete for jobs, he said. And were
happythat inthis casewedemon-
strated that consolidating the op-
erations here in greater Wilkes-
Barre was the better option.
Obviously this community
has a larger percentage of its em-
ployment in manufacturing than
in other areas of the country, he
continued. We believe that
while most manufacturers are
nowfacingthe realities of compe-
tition in a global market we are
finding that many of the areas
manufacturers are able to com-
pete on that global stage but also
able to win.
Kuzdzal said Certech began
hiring some employees earlier
this year, and will phase in hires
in groups of about 10 as equip-
ment is purchased and moved on
site, and as new hires complete
training and certification pro-
grams. Experience and special
skills are not required for most
positions, Kuzdzal said.
Certech prefers a good work
ethic over experience. We will
train for each position, he said.
Most new jobs will be entry-
level positions inthe manufactur-
ing of ceramics for the aerospace
industry and will not require
manufacturing experience or
heavy lifting, though some engi-
neeringandskilledpositions also
will be available. All positions
will be full time, though receipt
of benefits will be contingent on
completion of a training period,
Kuzdzal said.
He said the starting entry level
pay is around $10 an hour.
Company plans 80 jobs for Hanover Twp.

initiative like one being consid-
ered by Georgia voters to ap-
prove a 1 per-
cent sales tax to
fund transporta-
tion projects in
their region
could work in
Pennsylvania is
not in question.
Whether vot-
ers in either
state would ap-
prove such a
dedicated tax increase is.
About a dozen members of a
House Democratic Policy Com-
mittee held a hearing Thursday
at Pittston Area High School to
discuss funding and infrastruc-
ture deficiencies and to get in-
formation on the Georgia
Transportation Act of 2010.
That plan, approved by the
Georgia Legislature, divides
the state into12 special tax dis-
tricts, allowing
each district to
approve a 1 per-
cent sales tax for
10 years to be
used for local
transportation
projects. If more
money is generat-
ed than needed,
the tax would
end. The planwill
go before voters July 31.
State Rep. Mike Carroll, D-
Avoca, requested Thursdays

ing to introduce a bill that
would mirror the Georgia plan.

He said for far too long the
state and federal governments
have maintained crumbling

Rep. Mike Sturla, D-Lancaster,

WILKES-BARRE Over the objec-
tions of a few residents, City Council
on Thursday night unanimously vot-
ed to inquire whether anyone would
lease the parking meters, garages
and lots for at least $20 million.
By a 5-0 vote, council agreed to
work in conjunction with the Wilkes-
Barre Parking Authority to issue a
Request for Qualifications from
firms interested in the plan proposed
Monday by Mayor Tom Leighton.
The plan called for a long-term
lease, either 30 or 50 years, of the
parking assets in exchange for an up-
front minimum payment to pay for
public safety, infrastructure im-
provements, blight removal in the
city and other gener-
al government ex-
penses. Among the
terms disclosed the
company leasing the
assets would collect
meter revenue and
the city would re-
ceive the money
from parking tickets
as well as an 8-per-
cent tax on the park-
ing facilities.
But the plan raised
numerous questions
for Karen Ceppa Hir-
ko, a critic of Le-
hightons adminis-
tration.
She pressed council for details on
why the Philadelphia law firm of Fox
Rothschild was handling the deal in-
stead of the city solicitors. She also
wanted to know who would own the
assets at the end of the lease and
what it will cost taxpayers.
Why are we doing a deal like
this? she asked.
Mark Robbins of Forty Fort, anoth-
er critic of the mayor, called the deal
completely bogus and completely
illegitimate.
Before he was ordered led out of
council chambers by a police officer,
Bob Kadluboski asked that the vote
be put off until more facts are avail-
able.
Lets put this on hold until we can
find out exactly whats going on, he
said.
Although he did not oppose the
plan, Frank Sorick, president of the
Wilkes-Barre City Taxpayers Associ-
ation, wanted to know specifics as
well.

WILKES-BARRE Details in the ar-
rest affidavit for James Rankin, who
was shot by a city police officer, say it
took police about 50 minutes to arrive
at a reported home invasion after the
first call was made to Luzerne County
911 Monday morning.
Police arrived at 251 Kidder St. at
4:20 a.m. and had trouble finding the
correct apartment from which the call
to 911originated at about 3:30 a.m. Po-
lice discovered the correct
apartment after hearing a
commotion from apartment
8, according to the criminal
complaint.
As soon as police encoun-
tered the tenants, Naeem Ford
and Margarita Martinez, state
police at Wyoming allege Ran-
kin jumped out of a rear win-
dow and over a porch railing.
Rankin refused commands to stop
running and city police chased him to
Scott Street, where he ran around an
apartment building and was confront-
edby police inthe area of Laurel Street
and Jenkins Lane.
State police allege Rankinrefusedto
show his hands and was taken to the
ground by Officer (John)
Majikes, the criminal com-
plaint says.
Rankin got up and made
suspicious hand move-
ments, reaching toward his
waistband when Majikes
fired, striking Rankin in the
torso area, according to the
complaint.
Rankin underwent sur-
gery at Wilkes-Barre General Hospital,
where he is recovering. His mother,
Mary Lee Lawson, said the shooting
left her son paralyzed from the waist
down.

WILKES-BARRE Chief Public De-
fender Al Flora Jr. on Thursday filed a
motion seeking a court order that
would permit himto immediately hire
six more attorneys and direct Luzerne
County to pay private attorneys to rep-
resent indigent defendants who have
been denied representation by his of-
fice.
The motion, filed by the American
Civil Liberties
Union, requests the
court grant the relief
immediately to ad-
dress the crisis that
has developed with-
in the Public Defend-
ers Office due to a
lack of staffing.
Flora on Tuesday filed a class-action
lawsuit against the county that seeks
to force it to increase funding for his
office so that he can hire additional at-
torneys. The court motion filed Thurs-
day, known as a peremptory writ of
mandamus, would allow Flora to ob-
tain part of the relief he is requesting
while other aspects of the lawsuit re-
main pending.
The class-action suit was filed on be-
half of Flora and criminal defendants
who qualified, but were denied repre-
sentation by the Public Defenders Of-
fice due to a policy Flora implemented
in December that limits the types of
cases his office will accept.
According to the suit, approximate-
ly 300 indigent defendants have been
deniedanattorney. Thecountyhas not
taken any steps to provide them with
alternate legal representation.
That failure to provide representa-
tion has created an extreme hardship

enough money to make a differ-
ence.
Onewaytoraisemoneyis toin-
crease the states gasoline tax,
something few would stomach
with gas at $4 a gallon.
The gas tax increase is not
wildly embraced, to put it mild-
ly, Carroll noted.
But something needs to be
done, he said.
Fifth of bridges deficient
George Roberts, executive di-
rector for Pennsylvania Depart-
ment of Transportation District
4, whichserves Pike, Wayne, Sus-
quehanna, Wyoming, Lackawan-
na and Luzerne counties, testi-
fied that of the states 2,063
bridges within the district, 429,
or 21percent, are structurally de-
ficient.
He said many are more than 50
years old and have exceeded
their design life. Three bridges
are closed to traffic because
theyre in such poor condition.
Carroll said that in District 4
alone, based on the most recent
annual sales tax figures, the addi-
tional 1 percent tax could gener-
ate $40 million per year.
But the challenge of askingvot-
ers to increase their taxes poses a
challenge, some of those who dis-
cussed the plan noted on Thurs-
day.
How do we fund transporta-
tion while facing the worst eco-
nomic condition since the Great
Depression? asked Doug Call-
away, executive director of the
Georgia Transportation Alliance.
In Georgia we came up with a
different approach. Well know
on Aug. 1 whether we were suc-
cessful, he said.
The way the proposal is sold to
the voters could be the key in
whether it passes or not, Call-
away said.
At the end of the day, its not a
sales tax were talking about. Its
more jobs, safer roads and local
control, Callaway said.
His comment that chambers of
commerce, construction compa-
nies and other firms that could
benefit from added work were
likely to spend more than $4 mil-
lion to market the plan and edu-
cate the public on why they
should vote in favor struck a
chord with state Rep. Phyllis
Mundy, D-Kingston.
That seems like anawful lot of
money to be spending on market-
ing, she said.
Callaway responded by noting
the investment is a drop in the
bucket to the benefits this de-
rives.
Economic development, mod-
ern roads, less traffic congestion
because of ongoing road work
and emergency bridge repairs
and the potential to attract busi-
nesses by selling themon the wil-
lingness to invest in infrastruc-
ture were all reasons Callaway
said voters should want to enact
the tax.
If you dont have the money to
move forward, youre goingtoget
run over by your competitors in
other states, Callaway said.

If approved by the legislature and
signed into law by the governor,
here are the steps that would be
needed to get a dedicated tax for
transportation projects:
First, a group of regional leaders
would meet with District PennDOT
officials to compile a list of pro-
jects to be funded by the addition-
al 1 percent sales tax.
Then the list would be whittled
down to meet a budget based on
the revenue such a tax would
generate.
Then the voters within the dis-
trict would vote on approving the
tax to be allocated to the projects
on the list only. It would be a dis-
trictwide vote and would not need
to gain approval in a majority of
counties, just a majority of those
casting votes from throughout the
entire PennDOT district.
THE STEPS
StefanieSalavantis saidtheinvestigation
by state police cleared Majikes of any
wrongdoing.
StatepoliceallegeRankinwas discard-
ingitemswhilebeingchasedthat hestole
from the apartment, including a cell-
phone, photographsandinsurancecards.
Ford told police he was awakened
when Rankin forced his way into the
apartment. Ford said Rankin stunned
him with a Taser and kicked his leg on
which he recently had surgery, the com-
plaint says.
MartinezsaidRankinstunnedherwith
a Taser andpunchedher about 20 times.
Lawson said Rankin arrived in Wilkes-
Barre on Saturday to spend the weekend
withher other son, DavidHines, 29, who
was arrested at the same apartment
building by city police at about 4:10 Sat-
urday afternoon.
Hines was wanted by state parole
agents on a violation of a sentence im-
posed in Blair County in 2007, according
to court records.
He did not have possession of a gun
when arrested, but it still is unclear
whether a Taser was recoveredat or near
the crime scene.
Lawson said Hines stayed in a roomin
the apartment building, and Rankin re-
turned to the apartment Monday morn-
ing to retrieve personal belongings.
Its a bad situation, Lawson said.
James didnt do no home invasion. His
brother renteda roomthere.
Ford and Martinez could not be reac-
hedfor comment onThursday.
Rankin was arraigned in the hospital
by District Judge Joseph Carmody of
West Pittston on charges of aggravated
assault, robbery, theft, resisting arrest
and prohibited use of an electronic de-
vice. Bail was set at $100,000.
Hinesisjailedat theStateCorrectional
Institution at Dallas. City police charged
Hines with possession of a controlled
substance when he was allegedly found
with marijuana and crack cocaine, ac-
cording to the criminal complaint.

forced to attend court hearings
on their own, the suit says.
A writ of mandamus is a le-
gal action that is brought to
compel a government entity to
fund services it is legally obli-
gated to provide. In this case,
the county is obligated by the
U.S. and Pennsylvania Consti-
tutions to provide legal repre-
sentation for defendants who
cannot afford to hire an attor-
ney.
Floras mo-
tion seeks to
compel the
county to set
aside money to
pay private at-
torneys to rep-
resent the de-
fendants as an
interim solu-
tion while the
lawsuit is
pending.
He also is

ing the class-action lawsuit.

Sorick asked if the city has the au-

firm and wondered if the deal would

Council has questions too, acknowl-

But Barrett said council would be
remiss if it didnt explore the possibil-
ity of leasing the assets, and putting
out the RFP could answer some of
those questions.
There may be no one interested in
this particular project, he said.
There may be many.
Not all the meeting was devoted to
the lease.
James Michalesko of Exeter said he
was interested in developing the prop-

multitude of uses for the citys youth,
including a coffee shop, recording stu-
dio, performance space and transi-
tional living units. He would operate

would rely on loans, grants and other
sources of funding for the multiphase

outh Koreas foreign minister said
today a North Korean long-range
rocket launch has been confirmed a
failure.
Kim Sung-hwan provided no further
details about what he said was the
Norths failure to launch a rocket the
West has condemned as a cover for a

He told reporters Friday in a nation-

strongly condemning North Koreas
new leadership for ignoring interna-

South Korean and U.S. officials earli-

After years of investigation, denials

Nations-brokered cease-fire.
But theUnitedStates, Franceandoth-
ers seeking the ouster of Syrian Presi-
dent Bashar Assad said the government
has yet to implement a provision in the
U.N. plan that called for the countrys
military to return to its barracks, and
the U.S. repeated calls for Assad to step
down.
Anti-Assad activists reported at least
three deaths at the hands of Syriansecu-
rity forces on Thursday, along with a
number of arrests.
The official Syrian government news
service, SANA, reported at least two
government sympathizers killed a
police officer who died when the bus he
was inwas bombednear thecityof Alep-
po, wounding 24 others, and a Baath
party official in southern Daraa prov-
ince who was shot eight times when he
left his hometobuybread. SANAsaid14
members of the security services, killed
in previous violence, were buried.
President Barack Obama and French
President Nicolas Sarkozy held a video
conference, after which the White
House said the two leaders had "con-
demnedthe violence perpetratedby the
(Assad) regime against its own people
and noted that the regime had yet to ful-
ly implement the agreement."
U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clin-
ton welcomed the "apparent halt in vio-
lence," but she said it was not enough.
"If it holds, a cease-fire is an important
step, but it represents just one element
of the special envoys plan," she said.
"Assad will have to go and the Syrian
people must be given the chance to
chart their own future."
U.N. Syria envoy Kofi Annan, the au-
thor of the cease-fire plan, made no pub-
lic statement. U.N. Secretary-General
Ban Ki-moon, in Geneva, said that with-
out monitors "it was difficult to assess
the situation on the ground."
"Even a small gunshot may give both
sides the pretext to engage in another
fighting," Ban said, according to The
Associated Press.

dict.

HARTFORD, Conn. The
vote to repeal Connecticuts
death penalty brought a mo-
ment of triumph for Elizabeth
Brancato, a lifelong opponent of
capital punishment despite the
murder of her mother in 1979.
Brancatohadlobbiedlawmak-
ers for years, becoming more re-
solved against capital puni-
shment as she met families of
other victims frustrated by end-
less appeals. She also started a
blog to highlight the voices of
other vic-
tims rela-
tives in favor
of repeal
that she felt
were over-
shadowed in
the debate.
She was at
the state-
house
Wednesday
night as the
state legisla-
ture gave fi-
nal approval to a bill that will
make Connecticut the17th state
to repeal capital punishment. A
week earlier, she was in the gal-
lery when it cleared its biggest
hurdle with an early morning
vote in the state Senate.
Brancato is among roughly
180 relatives of crime victims
who pushed for repeal in private
meetings with lawmakers, via
petition drives and at news con-
ferences. Ontheother sideof the
debate, death penalty support-
ers had perhaps the states most
compelling advocate in Dr. Wil-
liam Petit Jr., the only survivor
of a 2007 home invasion in
which two paroled burglars
killed his wife and two daugh-
ters. Gov. Dannel P. Malloy, a
Democrat, said he will sign the
bill into lawas soon as it reaches
his desk.

SANFORD, Fla. The neighborhood
watchman who shot and killed teenager
Trayvon Martin will remain in jail while
awaiting a bond hearing and formal ar-
raignment on second-degree murder
charges, a Seminole County judge ruled
Thursday afternoon.
George Zimmerman, 28, appeared at
the brief, first-appearance hearing hand-
cuffed and dressed in a gray prison jump-
suit. He said little except to answer "Yes,
sir," twice to acknowledge he understood
the charge against himandhis representa-
tion by an attorney.
Zimmermandidnot enter a plea andno
bail was set, but a formal arraignment was
set for 1:30 p.m. May 29.
At Thursdays initial hearing, Mark
OMara, Zimmermans defense attorney,
askedthejudgefor a"completesealing" of
future records in the case.
According to reports in
The Orlando Sentinel, prose-
cutors said in the affidavit
that Zimmerman "confront-
ed Martin and a struggle en-
sued," anapparent contradic-
tion of Zimmermans ac-
count that Martin attacked
him from behind.
The affidavit also states
that Trayvons mother, Sybri-
na Fulton, reviewed 911 calls
made by neighbors and wit-
nesses that night, and that
sheidentifiedthescreams for
help heard in the calls as those of her son.
The document also reveals that investi-
gators interviewed a "friend" who was
talking to Trayvon on his cell phone mo-
ments before the shooting.
"During this time, Martin was on the
phone with a friend and described to her
what was happening," the affidavit states.
"The witness advised that Martin was
scared because he was being followed
throughthecomplexbyanunknownmale
and didnt know why."
Martin tried to run home, the affidavit
states, but "Zimmerman got
out of his vehicle and fol-
lowed Martin," disregarding
a police dispatcher who ad-
vised against that course of
action.
According to the affidavit,
"Zimmerman shot Martin in
the chest."
Earlier Thursday, Trayvon
Martins mother, Sybrina Ful-
ton, said on NBCs Today
show she believed the en-
counter that led to the shoot-
ing death of her son was "an
accident," expressing her opinion in the
case for the first time.
Fulton later clarified her statement on
the family attorneys Twitter account.
"When I referenced the word accident
today with regard to Trayvons death, in
NO way did I mean the shooting was an
accident. We believe that George Zimmer-
man stalked my son and murdered himin
cold blood. The accident I was referring
to was the fact that George Zimmerman
and my son ever crossed paths. It was an
accidental encounter.

ALLENTOWNAjudgeonThursday
refused to throw out child sex-abuse
charges against Jerry Sandusky but will
allowdefenselawyers for theretiredPenn
State assistant football coachto ask again
to have the case dismissed as more evi-
dence is turned over by prosecutors.
Judge John Cleland ruled on a catch-all
pretrial defense motion that also sought
to have some of the evidence against
Sandusky suppressed, compel additional
disclosure of prosecu-
tion materials, and win
the courts permission
to introduce an alibi de-
fense.
Sandusky, 68, is
chargedwithmore than
50 criminal counts that
allege he sexually
abused10 boys over 15 years, both on the
Penn State campus and elsewhere. He
has denied the allegations. The scandal
led to the ousters of Penn State football
coach Joe Paterno, who died in January,
and Penn State President Graham Span-
ier.
Cleland rejected an argument by Sand-
uskys legal team that the statute of limi-
tations may have run out for eight of the
10 alleged victims.
He also rebuffed defense arguments
that some of the charges against Sandus-
ky were not specific enough, and that evi-
dencewas lackinginothers. But thejudge
said Thursday that Sandusky can raise
those arguments againbefore a June trial.

woman claimed she was co-
erced into taking part in a bur-
glary at a state police troop-
ers house and a robbery at an
adult night club due to a drug
debt her boyfriend owed, ac-
cording to charges filed.
State police at Wyoming on

Marie Sadusky, 23, of Bear
Creek Township, with crimi-
nal conspiracy to commit bur-
glary at the troopers resi-
dence in Laflin on March 23,
and robbery, crimi-
nal conspiracy to

criminal trespass,
receiving stolen
property and crimi-
nal conspiracy to
commit theft in
connection to the
robbery at the Ca-
rousel Lounge on
Route 11 in Ply-
mouth Township
on March 15.
Sadusky was ar-
raigned by District
Judge Michael
Dotzel in Wilkes-Barre Town-
ship and released on $20,000
unsecured bail.
State police are continuing
to search for William Gronos-
ky Jr., 29, and Kevin Williams
Jr., 29, for their alleged roles
in the robbery at the Carousel
Lounge. Gronosky is also
charged with burglarizing the
troopers residence with Sa-
dusky.
According to the criminal
complaint:
A state police trooper as-
signed at the Mohegan Sun at
Pocono Downs casino report-
ed his house was ransacked
and numerous guns, ammuni-
tion and electronics were sto-
len while he was at work be-
tween March 22 and March
23. The trooper had a prior re-
lationship with Sadusky and
hadnt talked to her for several
months until she called himin
March.
While the trooper was at
work, he exchanged text
messages with Sadusky, who
asked if he was at work on
March 22-23, the criminal
complaint says.
When the trooper came
home, he noticed his dog had
been placed in a bedroom
with a water bowl and the
window partially opened.
Sadusky admitted to her al-
leged role in the burglary, say-
ing she feared Gronosky
would harm her and her fam-
ily. She said her boyfriend
owed Gronosky
money for drugs,
and Gronosky told
Sadusky she was
responsible for the
money, according
to the complaint.
Sadusky told
state police, ac-
cording to the
complaint, she
drove around
while Gronosky
was inside the
troopers house.
State police al-
lege Sadusky
drove the get-away car when
Gronosky and Williams
robbed the Carousel Lounge
at gunpoint stealing more
than $3,500, the complaint
says.
Gronosky and Williams are
persons of interest in a home
invasion on Church Street,
Hanover Township, on March
26.
Preliminary hearings for Sa-
dusky are scheduled Tuesday
and Wednesday.

ing at 697-2000. They are con-
sidered armed and dangerous.

he received mental health treat-
ment.
The judge saidTuesday the hos-

oretta M. Wilski, 91, a resident of
Swoyersville, passed away
peacefully early Thursday morning,
April 12, 2012, in Hospice Commu-
nity Care, Inpatient Unit at Geisin-
ger SouthWilkes-Barre, surrounded
by her loving family.
Her husband was the late Joseph
A. Wilski, who passed away on De-
cember 06, 1989. Together, Joseph
and Loretta shared 44 wonderful
years of marriage.
Born on May 7, 1920, in Wilkes-
Barre, Loretta was one of 12 chil-
dren born to the late Joseph and Ap-
polonia Pauline (Szarek) Rajza.
Raised in Wilkes-Barre Town-
ship, Loretta was a graduate of the
former Wilkes-Barre Township
High School, Class of 1938.
A homemaker most of her life,
Loretta devoted herself to tending
to the daily needs of her home and
family. After raising her children,
she went on to work many different
part-time jobs.
Loretta was a member of Saint Jo-
sephs Roman Catholic Church,
Wyoming, where at one time she
was an active volunteer for the par-
ishs annual bazaar.
She was a past member of the for-
mer Holy Child Parish, Sheatown
section of Nanticoke, where she
served as president of the parishs
Confraternity of Christian Mothers
and also held membership with the
parishs choir and Ladies Auxiliary.
In her earlier years, Loretta was
an active volunteer at the former
Saint Stanislaus Orphanage, where
she was instrumental in organizing
the orphanages annual Orphans
Day Picnic. She also served on the
committee which established the
Wilkes College Polish Room and
was honored to chair the annual
KosciuszkoBall some years ago. Ad-
ditionally, Loretta and her late hus-
band were both active members of
the Ex-Prisoners of War Associ-
ation.
Loretta was enthusiastically in-
volved with her childrens activities
whentheyweregrowingup, leading
her to serve as president of the
Wyoming Valley West Band Parents
Association and serve as both as
Girl Scout and Cub Scout Leader.
After raising her own children, she
became involved with the R.S.V.P.
Program, an in-school tutoring pro-
gram for children.
Most recently, Loretta was a
member of the Red Hot Rollers of
the Red Hat Association and was
currently serving as president of the
UGI Electric Company Retirees, a
position she had held for the past
twenty years.
Loretta enjoyed many things in
life especially traveling and going to
the Mohegan Sun Casino. She was
known for being an excellent cook
and was more than happy to share
her recipes with her family and
friends. She was also known for being
a life-long Democrat.
Family was always at the center of
Lorettas life. She held a special bond
with each one of her family members
and had a precious relationship with
her daughter-in-law and son-in-law.
Her beautiful spirit will forever live on
in the hearts of those she held dear to
her.
In addition to her parents, Joseph
and Pauline Rajza, and her husband,
Joseph, Loretta was preceded in death

WASHINGTON Ann Rom-
ney fought back Thursday
against aDemocrat whosuggest-
ed shes no economic expert be-
causeshehasnt workedadayin
herlife.RaisingthefiveRomney
sons, she said, was such a full-
time job that her husband, Re-
publican presidential contender
Mitt Romney, consideredit more
important than his work as the
family breadwinner.
He would say, My job is tem-
porary...Your job is a forever job
thats going to bring forever hap-
piness, Ann
Romney told
Fox News,
wading into a
multimedia fu-
ror over com-
ments by Dem-
ocratic con-
sultant Hilary
Rosen. Mitt
respects wom-
en that make
those different
choices.
Rosen apol-
ogized to Ann
Romney later
Thursday for her poorly cho-
sen words.
As a momI knowthat raising
children is the hardest job there
is, Rosen said in a statement.
Asapundit, I knowmywordson
CNNlast night were poorly cho-
sen.
In response to Mitt Romney
onthecampaigntrail referringto
his wife as a better person to an-
swer questions about women
than he is, I was discussing his
poorrecordontheplight of wom-
ens financial struggles, Rosen
said.
First lady Michelle Obama, a
working mother of two, even
jumped into the fray with this
tweet: Every mother works
hard, andevery womandeserves
to be respected. - mo. Tweets
tagged mo are said to be from
the first lady.
The series of exchanges
brought the Mommy Wars tothe
presidential campaign trail as
bothparties court womenvoters
critical to their prospects in the
November election. President
Barack Obamas high command
had demanded that Rosen apol-
ogize, while the Democratic Na-
tional Committeedisavowedher
commentsandher, reflectingthe
acute sensitivity of both parties
about alienatinganysubgroupof
female voters.
The multimedia furor erupted
Wednesday night when Rosen
said on CNN that Ann Romney,
whose husband is worth mil-
lions, never had to work to pay
the bills and should not be her
husbands surrogate on women
andthe economy.
His wife has actually never
worked a day in her life, Rosen
said. Shes never really dealt
with the kinds of economic is-
sues that a majority of women in
this country are facing.
The backlash was brutal and
swift.
David Axelrod, Obamas top
campaign strategist, tweeted
that Rosens comments were in-
appropriate and offensive. The
presidents campaign manager,
Jim Messina, said Rosen should
apologize. And the Democratic
National Committee down-
played any connection to Rosen
or her firm.
What she said was absolutely
out of bounds, saidDNCExecu-
tive Director Patrick Gaspard on
MSNBC. Ann Romney is some-
one who obviously has worked
hard to raise five good boys and
shes made some tough choices
in her life, Im certain. Families
should be absolutely out of
bounds inthis discussion.
Headded: HillaryRosenisab-
solutely not a paid adviser to the
DNCor tothe Obama campaign,
absolutely not.
Romneys campaign quickly
assembled a conference call for
reporters withthe campaigns fe-
male surrogates, who said Ro-
sens comments pit women who
make different choices in a diffi-
cult economyagainst eachother.

As a mom
I know that

the har-
dest job
there is.
Hilary Rosen
Democratic
consultant
mail, phone calls and TV, radio,
Internet and newspaper ads, he
said.
As the all-but-certain Republi-
can presidential nominee, Rom-
ney hopes to reap the rewards of
the NRAs broad network, which
includes more than 4 million
dues-paying members.
Governor Romney is a strong
supporter of SecondAmendment
rights, said campaign spokes-
man Ryan Williams, referring to
gun rights. Hes always support-
ed the Second Amendment and
as president would continue to
support the Second Amend-
ment.
Yet Romneys alignment with
the NRA also comes at a time
when gun laws have been under
national scrutiny.
The NRA was a main backer of
Floridas stand your ground
law, which gives people latitude
to use deadly force rather than re-
treat from danger. That self-de-
fense law has been much dis-
cussedinrelationto the February
shooting in which a neighbor-
hoodwatchvolunteer fatally shot
an unarmed teenager. After au-
thorities initially declined to
charge him, George Zimmerman
was chargedWednesdaywithsec-
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo.
Running for the Senate in Massa-
chusetts, Mitt Romney once as-
suredvoters ina state withstrong
gun-control laws: I dont line up
with the NRA. Now the likely
Republican presidential nomi-
nee, Romney will headline the
National Rifle Associations an-
nual conventiontoday andassure
tens of thousands of gun-rights
activists that hes squarely on
their side.
Coming just
days after rival
Rick Santorum
dropped out of the
nomination race,
the NRA conven-
tion in St. Louis
provides Romney an opportunity
to shore up his credentials with
an important conservative con-
stituencythat badlywants tooust
Democratic President Barack
Obama.
Romney leads a list of promi-
nent Republicans including
Santorum, Newt Gingrich,
House Majority Leader Eric Can-
tor and Wisconsin Gov. Scott
Walker who are scheduled to
address more than 65,000 con-
vention registrants during a ses-
sion billed as a celebration of
Americanvalues. AlthoughOba-
ma has virtually ignored gun is-
sues during his term, the NRA
considers him a foe and plans to
mount an aggressive effort
against him.
The NRAhas spent $20million
to$30 millioninpast presidential
elections, said NRA spokesman
Andrew Arulanandam. It hopes
to exceed that amount this year
inaneffort that is likelytoinclude
ond-degree murder in the death
of Trayvon Martin. Zimmermans
attorney has said the defendant
will plead not guilty and invoke
the stand your ground law.
Romney has said little about
whether he favors such laws,
thoughhe has calledthe shooting
aterribletragedy andhas saidit
was appropriate for prosecutors
to look into the case.
After the shooting, Obama
said, If I had a son, hed look like
Trayvon. And while he said at
the time that he supported the in-
vestigation, he didnt address the
issue of guns.
In fact, Obama has hardly talk-
ed about the issue since a couple
of months after the January 2011
assassination attempt on Rep.
Gabrielle Giffords in Tucson,
Ariz., when the president prom-
ised to develop newsteps on gun
safety.
Romney hasnt always been in
the NRAs good graces.
It was as a challenger to Demo-
cratic Sen. Edward Kennedy in
1994 that Romney professed not
to line up with the group. When
he was running for governor in
2002, the NRA shied away from
making any endorsement and
gave Romneys Democratic oppo-
nent a better rating on gun-rights
issues.
Massachusetts quadrupled its
gun-licensing fee while Romney
was governor. He also signed a
2004 law that made permanent a
ban on assault-type weapons,
though it was coupled with mea-
sures backed by gun-rights
groups, such as a lengthening of
the firearm license period from
four to six years and the creation
of an appeals board for people
seeking to restore their gun li-
censes.
As he was considering his first
presidential run in 2006, Romney
signed up for a lifetime member-
ship in the NRA.

TIMES LEADER FILE PHOTO
Mitt Romney speaks at a recent
rally in Tunkhannock.
The Associated Press
WASHINGTONRepublican
Rep. Allen West said he believes
75-plus House Democrats are
members of the Communist Par-
ty, a claim that echoed Joe
McCarthys unsubstantiated
1950s charges that communists
had infiltrated the top ranks of
the U.S. government.
Addressing a town-hall meet-
ing Tuesday in Florida, the fresh-
man lawmaker was asked how
many members of the American
legislature are card-carrying
Marxists. West said theres
about 78 to 81 members of the
Democratic Party that are mem-
bers of theCommunist Party. He
did not provide names.
Wests office said Wednesday
that the congressman stood by
the comments and was referring
to the 76 members of the Con-
gressional Progressive Caucus,
the largest group within the
House Democratic caucus.
The Communist Party has
publicly referred to the Progres-
sive Caucus as its allies, said An-
gela Melvin, a spokeswoman for
West. Wests office cited a May
2010 article on health care that
appeared in the Communist Par-
ty USA pre-convention publica-
tion that described the Progres-
sive Caucus and Rep. John Co-
nyers, D-Mich., as allies of the
party but not members. The arti-
cle, however, carried the dis-
claimer that Communist Party
USA takes no responsibility for
the opinions expressed in this ar-
ticle or other articles in the pre-
convention discussion.
Reps. Raul M. Grijalva, D-
Ariz., andKeithEllison, D-Minn.,
theco-chairs of thecaucus, reject-
ed Wests claim.
Allen West is denigrating the
millions of Americans who voted
to elect Congressional Progres-
sive Caucus members, and he is
ignoring the oath they took to
protect and defend the U.S. Con-
stitution just like he did, the
two said in a statement.

Board, garage owner
agree on compliance
FAIRVIEW TWP. --Township
supervisors and garage owner
Edward Mayka reached an
agreement in a hearing Wednes-
day that will bring Maykas
garage, M and M Auto on South
Main Street, into compliance
with the townships nuisance
ordinance.
Mayka has six months to
construct a 6-foot fence in front
of his property and move visible
dilapidated vehicles behind it to
comply with the ordinanceBe-
fore taking a recess to go view
the property, the supervisors
heard testimony from Larry
Braunstein, who said he lives
with his wife and three children
behind the garage.
Braunstein said he has lived
there for 14 years and, for the
time they have lived there, he
said he never had a problem
with the garage. Township Solic-
itor Donald Brobst probed about
a few specific conditions, like
broken windshields, exposed
engines and extracted chassis
sitting about for extended peri-
ods of time: conditions that
brought about the enforcement
notice.
Braunstein said he could not
effectively testify to their condi-
tions.
The supervisors announced
before taking the recess that
they might try to reach an
agreement outside the meeting
room and then announce it for
the public record.
Upon returning, they in-
formed the public of Maykas
agreement.
Resident Fred Heller asked
why Mayka had been singled
out when other properties that
seem also to be violators are not
being cited.
Chairman Robert Orloski said
that this is not the case and that
supervisors do what they can to
rein in violators.
Mayka would not comment
on whether he felt singled out
by the enforcement notice. He
said he was not satisfied with
the agreement, but now the
problem will go away.

West Side Trail plan
gets positive response
WEST WYOMING -- Re-
sponse was favorable from a
group of residents who attended
Wednesdays public meeting
regarding the Phase II of the
West Side Trail Project.
Project Coordinator Karen
Szwast and Borough Engineer
Mike Amato presented plans for
a pedestrian-friendly infrastruc-
ture, which includes eliminating
curbs, replacing old sidewalks
and drive aprons and creating
handicapped access ramps at
various locations in the bor-
ough.
Funding for the project, which
should begin by the end of the
summer, is made possible
through a combination of grants
from the Pennsylvania Depart-
ment of Transportation and the
state Department of Conserva-
tion and Natural Resources. In
keeping with PennDOTs Safe
Routes to School initiative, the
1.46-mile project encourages
families to walk their children
to school. The trails will lead to
Tenth Street Elementary in
Wyoming and the Wyoming
Area Secondary Center and JFK
Elementary School, both in
Exeter.
Phase II, which interfaces
with the trail at Wyoming Ave-
nue, will begin at Daily Park on
the east side of Shoemaker
Avenue and also at Charney
Park on West Eighth Street. It
will continue down both sides of
Eighth Street to Wyoming Ave-
nue. The trail will also continue
along Erie Street from Wyoming
Avenue to Memorial Street and
Penn Avenue in Exeter.
Amato assured residents that
recently installed sidewalks will
not be replaced, and that tree
lawns will be re-seeded and new
trees planted, if needed.
Szwast said parents are en-
couraged to park their cars at
Daily or Charney parks and
walk with their children to
school.
Were trying to encourage a
healthy lifestyle and cut down
on childhood obesity, she said.
Its a great way to encourage
people to get out there and walk
and take care of their health.

MEETINGS
WILKES-BARRE A Lu-
zerne County judge saidshe will
soon make a ruling on the post
conviction requests of a Hazle-
ton man sentenced to 20 to 40
years in prison for brutally at-
tackinganelderly Hazletoncou-
ple in a home invasion in No-
vember 2008.
Judge Tina Polachek Gartley
on Wednesday heard testimony
regarding the requests made by
Kevin Fisher, 30, who was con-
victed in November 2009 on
charges from a home invasion
and assault on Nicholas and
Martha Caputo in their South
Pine Street, Hazleton, home.
A jury found Fisher and Da-
niel Pinkney, 25, guilty of charg-
es including aggravated assault,
robbery and conspiracy.
Both men appealed their
cases to the state Superior
Court, but thehighcourt upheld
their convictions and sentences
handed down by then-Judge Pe-
ter Paul Olszewski Jr.
Fisher said in his Post Convic-
tion Relief Act filing that his
then attorney, Robert Buttner,
failed to file an appeal to the
state Supreme Court, a witness
lied about identifying Fisher,
Buttner was not prepared for
thetrial andtwodifferent copies
of the probable cause affidavit
exist, and one is fake.
PolachekGartley saidshe will
soon make a ruling.
There is also a pending Post
Conviction Relief Act pending
for Pinkney, but no hearing has
yet been scheduled.
Pinkney, who was sentenced
by Olszewski to 16 to 32
years in prison, alleges in his fil-
ing that his then attorney, John
Donovan, was ineffective.
Pinkney also alleges Olszew-
ski shouldnot have beenpermit-
ted to preside over his trial be-
cause of a business relation-
ship with former Judge Mi-
chael Conahan, who he alleges
is related to the Caputos. Pink-
ney says he will present testimo-
ny at his post conviction hear-
ing, including the testimony of
an alibi witness.
Fisher and Pinkney request a
new trial or acquittal.
A third man involved in the
case, Joseph Harry Bardi, 41,
was sentenced in November
2009 to nine to 23 months in
prison and five years probation
for his part in orchestrating the
crime. He pleaded guilty to a
charge of criminal conspiracy.
Bardi testified at Pinkneys
andFishers trial that he andAn-
thony Cangiano needed money,
and that plans for robbing the
Caputos, who own Caputos Ice
Plant, started as a joke but got
more serious as the duo talked
about it.
A fourth man, Anthony Can-
giano, 37, was sentenced on a
charge of criminal conspiracy to
3 to 7 years in prison. He
pleaded guilty to the charge.
Judge will rule soon
on invasion, assault
Kevin Fisher was found guilty
in 2009 in connection with an
incident at a Hazleton home.

Greater Wilkes-Barre Cham-
ber of Commerce and Penn
State Wilkes-Barre Alumni So-
ciety.
The 49-year-old Lawton had
been asked what impressed
him most since he arrived
from California six weeks ago
to take the high-profile manag-
er position created by the new
county home rule government.
A county manager wouldnt
be recognized on the street in
Solano County, where he last
worked as a principal manage-
ment analyst, because no-
body was that tuned in to what
was going on in the county, he
said.
Lawton said Luzerne Coun-
ty residents are invested in
government and urged them to
stay interested and keep the
heat on. He also requested pa-
tience, saying the new admin-
istration is trying to unravel a
lot of things that have taken
years to weave together.
Rebuilding the government
will take time because theres
no owners manual, he said,
vowing to reaffirm voters who
supported home rule and win
over those who didnt.
County finances
Audience member and hotel
owner Gus Genetti asked Law-
ton about county finances.
Lawton predicted more
hardship and reductions in ser-
vices and staff in 2013.
There will be fewer people
working for the county, but I
hope the ones who are here
will be better equipped, better
trained and better able to re-
spond to the needs of citi-
zens, Lawton said.
The administration is devis-
ing a plan to produce more de-
tailed information on person-
nel and benefits, including
hours worked, he said.
Comparable peer counties
also will be identified for each
office so managers can bench-
mark their staffing and ex-
penses, he said.
There are fundamental
tools for management that we
simply havent yet developed
in the county, Lawton said.
You cant manage what you
dont measure, and right now,
were kind of trying to measure
millimeters with a yardstick.
The aging county prison al-
so must be addressed in a long-
range plan because its multis-
tory layout requires more staff,
he said. Past county officials
had scrapped a plan to build a
new prison, largely because
the county owes more than
$400 million from previous
borrowing.
Lawton: Organize better
Some county offices must be
housed together to share re-
sources, he said. For example,
the public should visit only
one office to file or review
deeds, wills and civil and crim-
inal court records, he said.
We combined offices in the
charter. Now we must physi-
cally combine the offices into
one big room, he said.
Lawton said hes trying to
create an atmosphere and
structure encouraging the
countys 1,600 workers to pro-
pose ideas and solve problems.
Maybe folks are finally be-
ing given the opportunity to
work at the level and the qual-
ity theyve wanted to for a long
time, he said.
Former chamber head Ste-
phen Barrouk asked Lawton
his opinion of the intense
media coverage of county gov-
ernment. Lawton said he sup-
ports an active and inquisi-
tive media and the controll-
ers office because both pro-
vide a check and balance.
Its not always comfortable
to be under that light, but its
always a good thing for the en-
terprise, for what were do-
ing, he said.
Getting the new government
off the ground and restoring
public confidence in county
government are top priorities,
he said.
Its absolutely critical we
get this right, he said.
He interjected some of his
trademark wit into his speech,
saying he was repeatedly ques-
tioned before he was hired
whether he had any relatives
or acquaintances in the coun-
ty.
The Orange County, N.Y.,
native said he repeatedly an-
swered no, but confessed he
remembered the other night
his senior prom dates mother
was from Wilkes-Barre.
I have to give that up now,
he said.
LAWTON
Continued from Page 1A
and Greenwald lawfirm, is inquir-
ing why the application is incom-
plete.
In a letter dated Thursday from
attorney Andrew D. Bigda to Lu-
zerne County First Assistant Dis-
trict Attorney Sam Sanguedolce,
Bigda seeks an explanation to
why the top half
of the application
was removed.
A search war-
rant application
contains areas at
the top to be fil-
led out by the in-
vestigating offi-
cer, including
Items to be
searched for and
seized, the address where the
warrant is to be served, name of
property owner and/or occu-
pants and offense violation.
At the bottom of the applica-
tion are listed the signatures of
the investigating officer, the judge
who authorizes the warrant and a
deadline when the warrant is to
be served.
There also is a box checked by
the judge to seal the warrant for
60 days when good cause is
shown by a prosecutor submit-
ting the search warrant.
Pennsylvania Crimes Code gui-
delines regarding the sealing of
search warrants do not include
the sealing of search warrant ap-
plications.
Luzerne County Judge Fred
Pierantoni, who authorized and
sealed the search warrant affida-
vit, said he could not comment
about the application.
Luzerne County President
Judge Thomas Burke could not be
reached for comment Thursday
afternoon. Sanguedolce did not
return a message for comment.
When search warrants were
sealed by Luzerne County Senior
Judge Patrick Toole in the Hugo
Selenski investigation in June
2003, the applications to those
warrants were opened upon a re-
quest by a reporter.
Detectives with the county Dis-
trict Attorneys Office, city police
and three troopers with the state
police Forensic Services Unit
searched Yusiffs house Tuesday
afternoon, five days after Tyler
was killed.
The top half of the application
to the search warrant for 117 Hill
St. would have included what in-
vestigators were seeking fromthe
property.
Yusiff, who was interviewed by
The Times Leader the night his
friend died, said he heard the gun-
shot and saw a man driving away
in a red Ford Taurus.
No charges have been filed.

Investigators
earlier this
week served
a search
warrant at
Yusiffs
house.
The portion of Sprague Ave-
nue set to close runs through
the Wyoming Seminary Upper
School campus, and the school
would use the area to provide a
more campus-like environment
for students, Kingston Admin-
istrator Paul Keating said.
Wyoming Seminary spokes-
woman Gail Smallwood said
the project was inspired by
similar pedestrian-only streets
on college campuses, in partic-
ular the cul-de-sac at the end
of North Franklin Street on the
Kings College campus in
Wilkes-Barre.
The way this sort of project
enhances the campus and
beautifies the community is re-
ally why were looking to do
this, Smallwood said. It also
reduces the flow of traffic
through the campus.
Under the proposed plan,
the municipality would main-
tain ownership of the street,
which would remain intact,
but the school would be re-
sponsible for maintenance.
Barriers installed by the
school would bar vehicles from
entering the campus area, but
could be removed to allow
emergency vehicle access.
The barriers would be erect-
ed about a third of the way up
Sprague Avenue from Hoyt
Street, which would continue
to allow access to a school-
owned parking lot and several
homes on the street.
Seminary would shoulder
the entire cost of the project,
including $70,000 to install a
new traffic light at the corner
of West Hoyt Street and
Wyoming Avenue, and will up
its annual payment in lieu of
taxes to the municipality from
$3,500 to $20,200 in consider-
ation of Kingstons vacating
the street, according to Keat-
ing.
Sprague Avenue between
Pringle Street and West Hoyt
Street would remain one-way
but the direction of travel
could change, Keating said.
West Hoyt Street, currently
one-way between Wyoming
Avenue and Chestnut Avenue,
would become a two-way
street. Traffic lights would be
added at the intersection of
Hoyt Street and Wyoming Ave-
nue, which already has lights
pointing in three other direc-
tions, to channel traffic onto
Hoyt Street.
Keating said the plan would
alleviate occasional bottle-
necks on Pringle Street that
form during Wyoming Semina-
ry sports games and business
events in the neighborhood.
Wyoming Seminary would
pay for the traffic lights and
other signage associated with
the project, Keating said.
The municipality has a ob-
tained a highway occupancy
permit for installing the new
traffic lights and is prepared to
move forward swiftly, but the
plan needs to approval from
Kingstons municipal council,
and the municipality will con-
sider concerns and alternative
plans suggested at Mondays
public hearing, Keating said.
Wyoming Seminary is on
Sprague Avenue, Maple Ave-
nue, has a field over on Chest-
nut Avenue, Keating said. So
we want to make sure we have
input from the entire neighbor-
hood to make sure that the
changes we are making on
West Hoyt and Sprague are ad-
equate for servicing the entire
neighborhood.

PennDOT clarifies goal
of transportation merger
I
read with interest the article on April 8
titled, State head looking to merge
transit operations.
I was surprised The Times Leader never
contacted the Pennsylvania Department of
Transportation for comments about the
letter that we wrote explaining our posi-
tion on the Luzerne County/Hazleton
merger of public transportation agencies. I
feel it is imperative we get the facts correct
so that we can proceed with changes that
will benefit taxpayers.
First, it is important to note that Penn-
DOT did not initiate the consolidation
study. Rather, the city of Hazleton, Lu-
zerne County and Lackawanna County
elected officials passed resolutions in 2010
asking PennDOT to analyze the potential
benefits of consolidating public trans-
portation organizations. The results of that
study, conducted by only one consultant
there was no change identified effi-
ciencies and savings that the city and
counties recognized as valuable. Each took
formal action prior to Dec. 31, 2011 to
authorize advancing the consolidation
initiatives.
Sources quoted in the news article ques-
tion the estimated annual savings of
$500,000. The savings are associated pri-
marily with an overall consolidation of
administrative functions across three agen-
cies in Luzerne County: the Luzerne Coun-
ty Transportation Authority, Luzerne/
Wyoming Counties Transportation Depart-
ment and the city of Hazleton. While only
one full-time Hazleton employee is cur-
rently devoted to public transportation,
when the study was done, the city had two
full-time employees and a part-time indi-
vidual supporting public transportation.
The salaries and benefits associated with
those positions are a large part of the origi-
nally projected savings. In addition, these
savings were to be realized over time, only
through attrition and reassignment of staff,
not through termination of staff. In fact,
one previous full-time city employee is
now filling a critical vacancy at LCTA,
consistent with the consolidation process.
PennDOTs goal is to achieve savings
and efficiencies that result in improved
service to the residents and taxpayers of
the region. We are anxious to work with all
parties and have scheduled a meeting with
the mayor, city council, Luzerne County
Council president, Luzerne County manag-
er and LCTA on April 18 to start this proc-
ess.

COMING this season on
NEPA-TV:
Everybody Loves Uncle
Louie! Dont let that sad
sack face or those legal
woes fool you; everybody
loves Uncle Louie De-
Naples.
To the media, hes the Henny Youngman
of Dunmore. Well, maybe he cant get no
respect, but hes got a landfill, a scrap yard
and a kid with a casino (he built and owned
until those legal woes). With a background
like that, wouldnt you want him running
your bank?
Whats that? The Federal Reserve says no?
Perhaps the Fed would like a complimentary
drink while playing the roulette wheel.
Have you tried 22?
Skrepy! Critics call this Rocky, with a
twist! Former football star Greg Skrepenak,
once the popular top dog in Luzerne County
government, is down and out when hes
given a crack at redemption: a winner-take-
all bout with prison! Itll make him or break
him.
Watch the first tentative steps as he strug-
gles with a body that once supported but
now betrays him. Listen as his coach cajoles
Youre going to spit lightning and crap
thunder! Revel in the training montage
paced to pulsating music, as Skrepy for the
first time in decades runs up the cour-
thouse steps without feeling winded.
Youll laugh, youll cry, it will become a
part of you when Skrepy realizes that, while
he couldnt beat the rap, he could beat him-
self. Prison, it turns out, was the best thing
that ever happened to him!
And if prison wants a second chance?
Aint gonna be no rematch!
Lawsuit and Disorder. Yes, the familiar,
gavel-like Dah-duhn! is back, only this time
its not cops vs. crooks and a courageous,
perpetually weary-looking, assistant district
attorney (who shills for TD Ameritrade on
the side). No, now its the Public Defenders
Office battling the cheap, justice-denying
Luzerne County Budget Makers.
The countys purse string holders have no
choice but to cut funding due to an utter
lack of money (caused, in part, by Skrepy
and his predecessors; but were revealing
one of the crossover episodes be sure to
watch for it). As a result, the public defender
has no choice but to cut the types of cases
his office can take, thanks to too large a
caseload and too small a staff. And the
ACLU has no choice but to sue on behalf of
the PD
Or does it?
As fans of the original series surely know,
sometimes justice takes a back seat to just
take what you can get.
In the criminal justice system, the people
are represented by two separate yet equally
important groups: The budget makers who
provide money so the system can work fairly
for all, and the public defenders, who sue
because they didnt get enough money to do
their jobs. These are their stories.
Dah-duhn!
Salavant this! Shes young! Shes pretty!
She beat the odds and won election to a job
she barely had any qualifications to hold!
Now follow the earnest and intrepid green-
horn Luzerne County district attorney, Stefa-
nie Salavantis, as she learns the ropes need-
ed to lasso the bad guys! First order of busi-
ness: public speaking.
I want to make sure we follow all the
proper procedures and make sure everything
is done by the book, Salavantis intones for
the umpteenth time since taking office.
No, no, no, no, no! elocutionist Profes-
sor Higgins chides. Well never convince
royalty that you belong among them if you
keep stating the obvious. Now repeat after
me. In Hanover, Hazleton and Hughestown,
homicides hardly happen!
Light on the Piazza. A TV adaptation of
the surprise Broadway musical hit The
Light in the Piazza, this poignant saga
follows the plight of Luzerne County Elec-
tion Bureau Chief Leonard Piazza, the man
with a family name that opens most political
doors the way an addict opens bags of coke.
Yet defying such stereotypes, he dragged
county voters kicking and screaming into
the digital age, converting to electronic
voting machines and providing live and
frequent election results online all while
impartially applying election law arcana.
Suddenly, hes put on leave, then fired!
How can this be? Who did what?
And who will sing Who knows what you
call it, but its there!?

O
ZZIE GUILLEN, for-
mer manager of the
Chicago White Sox,
has said a lot of offen-
sive things over the years, such
as the time he used a gay slur in
reference to a newspaper co-
lumnist, or when he accused
Americans of being lazy
while claiming the country
couldnt survive without immi-
grant labor. (Guillen was born
in Venezuela.)
But that was in Chicago,
where tolerance for such utter-
ances rose after he managed
the Soxtoa WorldSeries winin
2005. Things are different now
that Guillen is managing the
Marlins of Miami, however, and
a recent unforcedverbal error is
jeopardizing his job.
I love Fidel Castro, Guillen
told Time magazine. After a
beat, he went on to explain: A
lot of people have wantedtokill
Fidel Castro for the last 60
years, but that (expletive) is
still here.
To Floridas Cuban-immi-
grant community, praising Cas-
tro is little different from prais-
ing Adolf Hitler even if youre
only expressing admiration for
his survival skills, not his poli-
tics.
Guillen has apologized for
his comment. That didnt stop
the team from suspending him
for five games, even as protes-
ters and a county commission-
er call for his resignation. This
strikes manynon-Floridians, in-
cluding us, as a gross overreac-
tion, maybe even an assault on
American values: Why should
he be punished for expressing a
minority-held political view?
But then, most communities
have their unique hot buttons.

H
OLD ON THERE,
Tim Holden.
You aim to retain
your seat in Con-
gress, convince Democratic vot-
ers in Northeastern Pennsylva-
nia to cast their ballots for you
on April 24 and, in the mean-
time, bash your primary oppo-
nents reputation in the press
and via a barrage of bare-knuck-
led TVadvertisements. But you
wont participate with the guy
in a pre-election debate. Be-
cause, ostensibly,
youre way too busy.
Tsk-tsk.
This kind of cam-
paign chicanery
makes our blood boil
and should cause ev-
ery would-be voter in
the newly reconfigured 17th
Congressional District which
includes parts of Luzerne and
Lackawanna counties to care-
fully consider your motivations.
The Times Leaders editorial
board strongly objected to the
my-appointment-calendar-
wont-permit-it excuse when
state Rep. Karen Boback, a Re-
publican fromHarveys Lake, re-
sorted to it during 2008 seem-
ingly to duck a primary challen-
ger. Its evenmoregallingfroma
10-term congressman.
Challenger Matt Cartwrights
request for six debates one in
each of the counties overlapped
by the 17th Districts latest
boundary lines might have
seemed excessive. But zero
sounds totalitarian.
Skeptics reasonably question
whether you might suffer from
performance anxiety at the
prospect of matching wits with
a longtime trial attorney or,
rather, if this decisionis a power
play from the modern-day in-
cumbents handbook.
No matter the reason, it
stinks.
The winner of this matchup
betweenCartwright, of Moosic,
and yourself, a Schuylkill Coun-
ty resident, probably has a lock
onvictory inNovembers gener-
al election; Republican Laureen
Cummings of Old Forge would
havetoovercomea
huge registration
disparityinthedis-
trict, which favors
Democrats by a
more than 5-to-3
margin.
Debating is a
time-honored part of our demo-
cratic process. To thumb your
noseat it isanaffront not onlyto
Cartwright, but also to poten-
tial voters who value a face-to-
face airing of the issues. For
them, comparison charts in the
newspaper and snippets from
the candidates respective cam-
paign websites wont suffice.
Nor should they.
What makes this situation
even more maddening is your
admission earlier this month
that solicitingdonations tofund
million-dollar congressional
races consumes far too many
hours. You told editors at this
newspaper that if people saw
the amount of time and effort
spent in raising money, instead
of governing, they would be
outraged.
Onthat point, U.S. Rep. Hold-
en, there likely is no debate.
OUR OPINION: 17TH DISTRICT RACE
Shame on Holden
for ducking debate
Debating is a time-
honored part of
our democratic
process.

public and private sector ex-
perience and has dealt with
the constraints and costs of
health care. He said he knows
public financing and impor-
tance of infrastructure.
Stilp, a well known activist,
inflates a pink pig Penelope
at protests and other events
held to bring
attention to is-
sues of politi-
cal corruption
and wasteful
spending.
There is no
confidence in
government in
Harrisburg or
Washington,
Stilp said.
Stilp said he
has written legislation and ef-
fected change in government
by filing lawsuits that have.
Vinsko and Stilp are lawyers,
but Stilp does not practice
law. Vinsko has a private prac-
tice and is assistant city at-
torney in Wilkes-Barre.
The candidates didnt dis-
agree on any major issues, of-
fering similar fixes to their
perceived wrongs in Con-
gress.
Vinsko said he would look
to create sustainable jobs
one, two, three at a time.
He said he would favor bridge
and road projects that would
last for 10 years instead of
one or two and at slightly
more cost.
Vinsko said Congress will
have to face the issue of
health care regardless of what
the U.S. Supreme Court rules
on the Affordable Health Care
Act, known as Obamacare.
He said parts of the act must
remain and
be built up-
on.
Stilp said
health care is
a challenge.
There is a
tsunami ap-
proaching for
everyone
who needs
health care,
he said. Im
sure the act will be found to
be unconstitutional, but we
must provide for those with
pre-existing conditions and
children up to age 26 who are
still living with their par-
ents.
Stilp also supports preven-
tive health care to keep costs
down.
Both favor enforcing cur-
rent laws regarding illegal im-
migration. Vinsko said the
government cant be the an-
swer for everything, but
must be involved. He would
also crack down on employers
who recruit illegal immi-
grants.
But first we have to en-
force the laws that are on the
books right now, Stilp said.
Vinsko and Stilp are pro-
life, but Stilp said he would
not oppose abortion for a
woman whose health was in
danger or for a victim of rape.
Vinsko said he would never
check his Catholic values at
the doors of Congress but
said decisions should never
be made in a vacuum.
The two Democrats support
protection of the environ-
ment, especially in the Mar-
cellus Shale gas drilling re-
gion. They said protecting
natural resources is an obli-
gation.
Energy development
should never be allowed at
the expense of the environ-
ment, Vinsko said.
Stilp said the drilling indus-
try has been protected and
taxpayers are subsidizing it
because the companies are
not taxed.
We have to stop that give-
away, he said.
Both are opposed to the re-
quired photo ID for voters,
calling it the wrong thing to
do. Stilp said it disenfran-
chises people.
Vinsko and Stilp support
unions, the Second Amend-
ment and gun safety.
The two candidates ex-
pressed concern about Iran
and North Korea possessing
nuclear weapons. Stilp said
they pose a serious threat to
the U.S. and other countries.
Vinsko said he will always
support U.S. troops, but said
the U.S. should not get in-
volved in conflicts that cant
be won or that we cant af-
ford.
They both said they favor
the development of alterna-
tive energy sources. They
said the issue of same-sex
unions and marriages is for
the states to decide.
If Im elected to Congress,
all members should check
their egos at the door, Vin-
sko said. We have to realize
we have a job to do and we
must get it done. We can do
that by working together and
working hard.
Stilp said he has fought for
taxpayers most of his life.
I have been a fighter for
you, taking on all the lost
causes, he said.
Vinsko ended by saying, I
pledge to make sure you are
excited about our future once
again.
The debate ended with a
handshake and with both can-
didates signing the Clean
Campaign Pledge.
DEBATE
Continued from Page 1A
DON CAREY/THE TIMES LEADER
Bill Vinsko, left, listens as Gene Stilp answers a question during a debate at the Buckingham Per-
forming Arts Center of Wyoming Seminary Thursday. Both men are running for U.S. Representative
in the 11th Congressional District.
Stilp said he has written legis-
lation and effected change in
government by filing lawsuits
that have. Vinsko and Stilp are
lawyers, but Stilp does not
practice law. Vinsko has a pri-
vate practice and is assistant
city attorney in Wilkes-Barre.
mured appreciatively as he told stories
of how he fought against illegal im-
migration.
The story says Barlettas change of
fortune is due to redistricting, the
rough-and-tumble process of redraw-
ing political maps after each census.
The story notes that GOP leaders
shifted the heavily Democratic cities
of Scranton and Wilkes-Barre out of
the 11th and into the 17th District
represented by Tim Holden, a Demo-
crat.
Attorney Bill Vinsko of Wilkes-
Barre, who is running for the Demo-
cratic nomination in the 11th District
against activist Gene Stilp, has said
the Republican National Committee
targeted him when doing the re-
districting.
Despite now living in the 17th Dis-
trict, Vinsko is running in the 11th
against Barletta.
I get that this is part of the game,
Vinsko told The Wall Street Journal.
But this (spot) has been part of the
11th district for 169 years. And on
Dec. 17th, they felt it should no longer
be in.
Barletta said Thursday he had noth-
ing to do with redistricting -- that it
was done by the state House and the
state Senate.
The redrawn 11th District is more
balanced, with a registration that is 44
percent Democrat and 43 percent
Republican, said Shawn Kelly, Barlet-
tas communications director. It
might be one of the most fair districts
in the state, if not the country.
Vinsko said the redistricting was
done to protect Mr. Barletta from
getting clobbered in this election.
They can move my house, or try to
tie me to Democratic leaders I have
never met, but, in the end, I will be
the peoples candidate, Vinsko said.
Vinsko declared his candidacy in
July, months before the lines were
redrawn.
JOURNAL
Continued from Page 1A
A panel tasked every decade
with redrawing the states 50
Senate and 203 House districts
based on population shifts is
hoping its latest version meets
bipartisan approval and with-
stands any potential court chal-
lenges.
The previous plan failed on
both accounts after the same
panel approved it in December.
On Thursday, the Legislative
Reapportionment Commission
voted 4-1 in favor of the com-
promise proposal put forward
by the bodys chair-
man, appellate
court Judge Ste-
phen McEwen.
The revised plan
addressed con-
cerns about split-
ting too many mu-
nicipalities be-
tween districts that
the state Supreme
Court cited when it
tossed the maps
out in a landmark
ruling in January.
The newest Sen-
ate map shows just
two municipalities
split between dis-
tricts.
The court-rejected plan had
four such instances and the
2001plan currently in effect has
three. None is in Luzerne Coun-
ty. The proposed House map
has 68 municipal splits. The re-
jected maps had 108, and there
currently are 121 municipalities
split among districts.
The courts action caused the
legislative districts that have
been in effect since 2001 to be
used for this years election cy-
cle, since the timing ruled out
having new maps approved in
time for the April 24 primary.
New maps approved by the
panel, barring other court ac-
tion, would go into effect next
year and be in place for the 2014
legislative election.
Senate Democratic Leader
Jay Costa cast the long dissent-
ing vote.
A closer look at the proposed
House maps shows that each of
the House and Senate districts
currently serving portions of
Luzerne County would change
and one, the 114th District, now
serving people living in two Lu-
zerne County municipalities
Pittston Township and Yates-
ville would be removed from
the county and placed com-
pletely in Lackawanna County.
State Rep. Mike Carroll, D-
Avoca, said hes fine with his
proposed district that is much
more compact than his current
118th district that sprawls from
Monroe County to the greater
Pittston area. He said the lack
of split municipalities and
keeping school districts mostly
intact should be main goals of
the reapportionment commis-
sion and in the case of the
118th, he believes the goal was
met.
His Democratic House col-
league, Gerry
Mullery, D-New-
port Township,
does not see the
plan quite the
same way.
It appears to
me that the Com-
mission failed to
read, or quite pos-
sibly, failed to
comprehend the
Supreme Court
decision. In Lu-
zerne County,
several legislative
districts have
been geographi-
cally expanded
without good reason and con-
tain unnecessary municipal
splits. I am hopeful, but not at
all confident, the commission
can fix this on their own. With-
out significant amendment to
the preliminary plan, I foresee
this matter once again in the
hands of our Supreme Court.
Senate changes
On the Senate side, major
changes between what was pro-
posed in December and what is
being proposed now are evi-
dent in the four districts repre-
senting Luzerne County.
The plan in December had
the 22nd District, now repre-
sented by John Blake, D-Arch-
bald, picking up a much larger
swath of Luzerne County, in the
Greater Pittston area. The lat-
est plan shows the district serv-
ing only Pittston Township in
Luzerne County.
Currently the district repre-
sents Avoca, Dupont and Du-
ryea in Luzerne County. Those
would be shifted into the 14th
District, now served by John
Yudichak, D-Plymouth Town-
ship.
That district is changed the
most from the current makeup
and the court-dismissed plan.
In addition to picking up
three more municipalities in
Luzerne County, it loses its
Monroe County portions, and
would include all of Carbon
County. The December maps
had that district also moving in-
to portions of Lehigh and
Northampton counties.
27th District expansion
The 27th District, represent-
ed by John Gordner, R-Berwick,
greatly expands into Luzerne
County, picking up six more
county municipalities in the
Nescopeck area that are now
part of the 20th District, repre-
sented by Lisa Baker, R-Leh-
man Township. The commis-
sion will meet May 2 to take
public comment on the pro-
posed maps and must vote to
approve or reject the maps by
May 14.

Its been almost a month since
center Matt Rust appeared in a
game, and that will change this
weekend.
As the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton
Penguins wrap up the regular
season with three games in three
days, beginning with a home
matchup against Binghamton to-
night, Rust is looking forward to
the opportunity to simply play in
a game again.
He appeared in 41 games this
season, posting four goals and 11
points. Rust hasnt played since
March 18 and has been a healthy
scratch for the last 11 games, but
he hasnt let the difficult stretch
have a negative impact.
You have to keep your head
in the game, Rust said. Youre a
professional and part of your job
is to understand the situation
and your role with the team. The
biggest thing is to stay upbeat
and give 100 percent in prac-
tice.
This weekend Rust will get a
chance to give 100 percent in
games. Head coach John Hynes
said he will play the rookie cen-
ter, but he added it isnt an audi-
tion for Rust to earn playoff
time.
They already know what Rust
brings to the table, Hynes said,
hinting that he could be relied
upon in the postseason.
We feel confident hell be able
to contribute for us and hes
shown us what he can do all year
long, Hynes said. He needs to
play well and have a

BUFFALO, N.Y. A milestone
avoided Dave Miley for a while
week at the start of Scranton/
Wilkes-Barre Yankees season.
But the SWB manager finally
reached the 1,600-win mark on
Thursday in a 7-2 victory over
Buffalo at Coca Cola Field as the
teamimprovedits recordearlyon
this season to 2-5.
Miley, who
has been the
Triple-A man-
ager for the
Yankees since
2006 when the
team was still
in Columbus,
has managed 21
seasons in the
minor leagues, piling up a record
of 1,600-1,219. Being the only
skipper in SWB Yankees history,
he has a 484-378 mark with the
club.
Mileys milestone took the at-
tention off of another shaky out-
ingbytheorganizations toppros-
pect accordingtoMLB.comin
left-hander Manny Banuelos.
The 21-year-old, making his
second start for the Yankees, al-
lowed two first-inning runs and
just three hits, but he walked six
batters and left after the second
inning. He threw74 pitches, with
just 36 of them being for strikes
as his ERA remained high at
10.13. Inhis first outingof the sea-
son, he gave up 11 hits and four
runs in 3 1/3 innings of a loss to
Syracuse on April 7.
But on Thursday, his offense
took him off the hook.
The Yankees took a 3-2 lead in
the top of the second on three
hits, with the big blow being a
two-run double by Ray Kruml,
scoring Brandon Laird and Colin
Curtis.
Steve Pearces first longball for
the Yankees gave the team a 4-2
lead in the top of the fifth.
The Yankees tacked on three
more runs in the seventh to put
the score out of reach. Jack Cust
knocked an RBI-single in the
frame andLairdplatedtwowitha
double as Scranton/Wilkes-
Barre extended its lead to 7-2.

Game 1.
Ryan Callahan scored in the first
period, Gaborik and Boyle pushed
the lead to 3-0, and Brad Richards
added a goal in the third for the
Rangers. New York will host the
No. 8 Senators again on Saturday
night beforethebest-of-sevenseries

Henrik Lundqvist was sharp
early, stopping Jason Spezza on a
partial breakaway andthenturning
aside JimOBrien, who weaved his
way through the NewYork defense
before getting off an in-close drive
that was knocked away.

WRIGHT TWP. The uni-
forms were different a fluores-
cent greenish-yellow more ap-
propriate for construction work-
ers. And, finally, an opponent
scored.
Aside from those anomalies,
it was a typical performance
from the Dallas girls soccer
team.
Ashley Dunbar and Colleen
McDonald continued their tor-
rid assault on opposing defens-
es as each re-
corded a hat
trick in an 8-2
victory over
Crestwood.
Dallas im-
proved to 5-1 in
Division 1-A of
the Wyoming Valley Confer-
ence, while Crestwood fell to
3-2.
Dallas coach Chris Scharff
said the unique jerseys were for
team unity because the peren-
nial powerful Mountaineers we-
rent picked to win the division
after finishing third in 2011. The
statement they made on the
cold night was just as loud.
Not even 15 minutes had ex-
pired and Dallas led 4-0. McDo-
nald from Sabrina Zurek. Dun-
bar unassisted. Dunbar fromVa-
nessa Parsons. McDonald from
Dunbar.
Vanessa is a great athlete,
Scharff said. And Ashley is a
great athlete. And we have Col-
leenwhois a great athlete. Then
you add the skill and all three
can put the ball in the net.
Considering Dallas defense
thus far this season, a four-goal
lead appeared insurmountable.
And it was.
Crestwood, though, contin-
ued to play hard and aggressive-
ly, and Morgan Kile scored 35
seconds into the second half off
an assist from Olivia Termini.
The goal was the first Dallas had
allowed since the ninth minute
of its season-opening victory

CRESTWOOD
KINGSTON One of the few well-hit
balls against Tommy Alexander went
right down the line in left and all the way
to the fence. A one-out double in the top
of the seventh had given Tunkhannock
some life.
Only for a moment.
Alexander, in command all afternoon
long, made quick work of the next two
batters to finish off Wyoming Valley
Wests 1-0 win against Tunkhannock on
Thursday at Spartan Stadium.
The numbers were impressive. Alexan-
der struck out 11and
didnt allow a walk
in a three-hit shut-
out of the two-time
defending district
champions. Valley
Wests ace had his
fastball consistently
in the upper 80s.
Just as telling, however, was his re-
sponse to the Tigers last-chance effort in
the seventh. After Josh McClain ripped
that double the only extra-base hit of the PETE G. WILCOX/THE TIMES LEADER

Dontevenknowmyname looks to avenge a very tough defeat in this
weeks second leg of the Bobby Weiss Series. Trained by Ron Burke,
the four-year old Master Lavec mare was game as nails trying to fend
off the heavy chalk Frost Bites K and a fast closing All Munky Busi-
ness last Friday. That Matt Kakaley driven trotter just couldnt mus-
ter up enough to fend them all off, finishing up a very good third,
despite relentless pressure throughout the mile. Tonight Frost Bites
Kis off and All Munky Business lack of early speed will be what gets
Dontevenknowmynamebacktothewinners circleinthefirst of three
divisions of the Weiss Series.

PHILADELPHIA Shane
Victorino and Ty Wigginton
homered, Joe Blanton pitched
seven strong innings and the
Philadelphia Phillies beat
Miami 3-1 on Thursday night
in the Marlins second game
without suspended manager
Ozzie Guillen.
Blanton (1-1) allowed three
hits and a run in his first
start following an injured-
plagued season. Blanton had
two lengthy stints on the
disabled list and pitched in
only 11 games in 2011, the
lowest for a full season in his
career.
Blanton is often overlooked
in a Philadelphia rotation
that boasts three aces.
Against the Marlins, he was
as effective as he was during
his first two seasons in Phila-
delphia.
The Marlins lost their sec-
ond straight game without
Guillen. He was suspended
five games by the Marlins on
Tuesday for saying he ad-
mired Cuban dictator Fidel
Castro.
Nationals 3, Reds 2
WASHINGTON Ryan
Zimmerman scored on Alfre-
do Simons wild pitch with
two outs in the 10th inning,
helping the Nationals extend
their best start since moving
to Washington with a victory
over the Cincinnati Reds.
The Nationals improved to
5-2, good for first place in
the NL East and treating an
announced sellout crowd of
40,907 to a win w in the
home opener for the first
time since 2008.
Simon (0-1) hit Zimmer-
man with a pitch leading off
the 10th, and one out later,
Jayson Werth singled. A
groundout pushed the run-
ners to second and third with
two outs. With Roger Berna-
dina at the plate, Simon
threw an 0-1 pitch in the
dirt, and Zimmerman slid
under the tag after catcher
Devin Mesoraco collected the
ball and threw to Simon.
Cubs 8, Brewers 0
CHICAGO Matt Garza
pitched three-hit ball for 8
2-3 innings, and the Chicago
Cubs sent Zack Greinke to
his worst beating in 1
1
2 years
in a victory over the Mil-
waukee Brewers that prevent-
ed a four-game sweep.
Helping the Cubs improve
to 2-5, Garza (1-0) struck out
nine and walked two both
in the first two innings. He
induced Cesar Izturis to hit
into an inning-ending double
play in the second, starting a
stretch in which he retired 16
of 17 batters.
Giants 4, Rockies 2
DENVER No win for
the ages. Or, for that matter,
the aged.
Madison Bumgarner scat-
tered four hits over 7 1-3
innings and took a no-hit bid
into the sixth Thursday in
the San Francisco Giants win
over the Colorado Rockies.
At 49, Moyer failed in his
second attempt to become
the oldest pitcher to win a
major league game.
Moyer (0-2) surrendered
four runs, two of them
earned, and eight hits in 5
1-3 innings. He walked one,
struck out three and hit a
batter before leaving to a
standing ovation in the sixth.

Burrell will
retire a Phillie
PHILADELPHIA Former
Philadelphia Phillies outfielder
Pat Burrell will sign a one-day
minor league contract and
retire with the organization.
Burrell will officially retire
as a Phillie during the Boston
Red Sox series in May at
Citizens Bank Park. Hell be
honored May 19 and throw out
the ceremonial first pitch.
The Phillies selected Burrell
with the No. 1 overall pick in
the 1998 draft. He played nine
seasons with the Phillies and
is fourth in team history in
home runs (251), eighth in
RBIs (827), and ninth in
extra-base hits (518). He
helped lead the Phillies to a
World Series championship in
2008.
He also played for the
Tampa Bay Rays and San
Francisco, winning another
World Series with the Giants
in 2010.
DETROIT Brennan
Boesch drove in four runs on
his 27th birthday, leading the
Detroit Tigers to their fifth
win in six games to start the
season, 7-2 over the Tampa
Bay Rays on Friday.
Drew Smyly gave up a run
in four-plus innings in his
major league debut. Despite
having the American Leagues
best record, Tigers starters
have not earned a win.
Collin Balester (1-0) won
this one with two innings of
relief.
The Tigers trailed 1-0 until
scoring three runs off Jeff
Niemann (0-1) in the fifth.
Alex Avila walked and scored
on Andy Dirks one-out triple.
Ryan Raburn struck out, but
Austin Jackson walked and
stole second before Boeschs
two-run single.
Twins 10, Angels 9
MINNEAPOLIS Justin
Morneau hit a two-run, go-
ahead homer in the eighth
inning and Minnesota rallied
from six runs down to beat
Los Angeles.
Joe Mauer went deep, too,
hitting a three-run shot off
Dan Haren in the fifth that
cut into a 6-0 lead the Angels
built against Francisco Lir-
iano. Every Twins batter had
at least one of the teams 20
hits, enough to make up for
the 14 men left on base, in-
cluding eight in scoring posi-
tion.
Denard Span had four hits,
including an infield single
that tied it at 6 in the seventh
inning. On the play, he reac-
hed first at the same time as
Scott Downs, stomping down
on top of the relievers foot
with his cleat. Downs right
ankle rolled awkwardly and
he left the game with what
the team called a bruise.
Rangers 5, Mariners 3
ARLINGTON, Texas
Michael Young hit a two-run
homer and had four RBIs to
back Derek Holland, leading
the Texas over Seattle.
Young had an RBI single in
the first. With Texas leading
1-0 in the fifth inning for the
third straight game, Young hit
an opposite-field homer into
the first row in right for a 3-0
lead against Jason Vargas
(1-1). Young added a run-
scoring single in the eighth
off Erasmo Ramirez.
Holland (1-0) allowed two
runs and five hits in 7 1-3
innings, struck out eight and
walked none. He extended a
scoreless streak by Texas
starters to 22 2-3 innings
before Alex Liddis RBI single
in the sixth. Kyle Seager add-
ed a 438-foot homer into the
right-field upper deck in the
seventh.

WYOMING Persistence
paid off just enough for the
Wyoming Area girls soccer
team on Thursday afternoon.
And just not enough for
Tunkhannock.
The Warriors scored two
second-half goals and then held
off a Tunkhannock rally at-
tempt for a 2-1 victory in a key
early-season Wyoming Valley
Conference Division 2-B game.
Wyoming Area improved to
4-0 with its third one-goal
victory of the season. Tunk-
hannock, considered the divi-
sional favorite with nine re-
turning starters, fell to 0-2-1.
I knew we were capable of
it, said Mike Sokolas, Wyom-
ing Areas third new coach in
as many seasons. I came into
it with expectations we would
start slow. I thought it would
be a bit of a process of me
getting used to these 34 play-
ers I have. Its surprising, yes
its surprising, but its a good
surprise.
Wyoming Area made little
use of six first-half corner kicks
as the teams played a scoreless
opening 40 minutes. Big saves
by Tunkhannock keeper Spen-
cer Corby denied Wyoming
Areas Jenna Skirnak and Vale-
rie Bott at the start of the sec-
ond half.
The save on Botts shot, a
liner to the upper left corner,
was particularly impressive.
Skirnak, though, finally put
the Warriors on the board in
the 55th minute with her
eighth goal of the season. The
senior forward was able to
poke in a loose ball from close
range just before Corby could
gather it.
Sophomore Danielle Stillarty
made it 2-0 about three min-
utes later. The Tunkhannock
defense had to sag over to stop
a Warrior attack on the left,
but the ball ended up to the
right where Stillarty scored her
first goal of the season.
The two-goal lead looked
safe until Tunkhannocks Mara
Sickler one-hopped a 25-yard
direct kick into the goal with
about 10 minutes left.
I think we were playing
competitively, Tunkhannock
coach Kaaron Yablonski said.
There were just a lot of people
back there on defense to get
through.
The Tigers nearly did,
though, once more after a
restart. Janel Kalmanowicz
took control of the ball in the
middle of the penalty area and
turned and ripped a shot that
Wyoming Area keeper Jordan
Chiavacci speared over her
head.
The game was the second in
two days for Tunkhannock,
which plays its third in a row
today against visiting Wyom-
ing Seminary.

BOSTONChris Kelly scored
on a long slap shot 1:18 into over-
time and the defending Stanley
Cup champion Boston Bruins beat
the Washington Capitals 1-0 Thurs-
day night in the opener of their
first-round playoff series.
Braden Holtby made 29 saves
for the Capitals.
TimThomas stopped all 17
shots he faced for Boston.
The game was physical and
scoreless until Thomas turned
back a Washington attack early in
the extra period. Brian Rolston
dropped it for Benoit Pouliot to
clear the zone and he pushed it up
to Kelly, who slapped it over Holt-
bys glove for the game-winner.
The reigning Vezina and Conn
Smythe Trophy-winner, Thomas
had an easy game for much of the
night, including a middle period in
which Washington managed just
two shots on goal.
Instead, the goaltending star
was Holtby, a third-stringer mak-
ing his playoff debut because To-
mas Vokoun and Michal Neuvirth
were injured. But he kept Washing-
ton in the game while the Bruins
peppered himwith shots.
After Holtby was beaten for the
one and only time, Washington
star Alex Ovechkin consoled him
on the ice before heading to the
locker room.

The Bobby Petrino saga has
drawn attention to an often over-
looked aspect of big-time college
football: the relationship be-
tween coaches and the police
who handle security for them.
Around the Southeastern Con-
ference, providing sideline secu-
rity for SEC programs is consid-
ered coveted duty. Some officers
travel to away games, a cost paid
for mostly by the schools. It can
range fromvolunteer duty to part
of the officers regular schedule.
Arkansas State Police Captain
LanceKing, whoprovidedsecuri-
ty for Petrino at Razorback
games, got the call from the
coachs phone when he wrecked
his motorcycle.
King was cleared of any wrong-
doing and its not unusual for
marquee college coaches to have
at least a casual relationship with
the law enforcement officials
who work closely with the pro-
gram.
We consider it an honor be-
cause college football is such a
public part of life in the south,
said Mississippi Highway Patrol
Maj. Billy Mayes, a 31-year veter-
an of the MHP who graduated
from Ole Miss in 1981. But from
my point of view, the relationship
is strictly business. Some coach-
es are more personable than oth-
ers. Ed Orgeron didnt talk to us
much. Houston Nutt did.
In the Petrino case, the coach
felt comfortable enough with
King to have the officer handle
the crucial minutes following the
crash.
Since the incident, Petrino has
been fired with cause in the wake
of explosive details of the crash
and attempted cover-up, includ-
ing lying about details of the acci-
dent, infidelity and workplace fa-
voritism. Arkansas athletic direc-
tor Jeff Longfoundthat the coach
made a conscious decision to
mislead the university in the af-
termath of the crash, including
that 25-year-old Jessica Dorrell
was on the motorcycle with him
during the accident.
Longs role in that aftermath
was examined by the Arkansas
State Police, but the department
concludedhe didnot violate any
State Police policy or state laws.
At LSU, the state police escort
began back in the late 1970s
when Jerry Stovall was coach, ac-
cording to State Police Capt.
Doug Cain. The trooper for cur-
rent LSU coach Les Miles is Sgt.
Bryan Madden, who has handled
the assignment since 2008. He
was an LSU player in the early
1990s, and has been with the
State Police for more than a dec-
ade.
One thing a lot of people dont
realize is its a volunteer assign-
ment, Cain said. Those troop-
ers are not paid (by the depart-
ment), and up until a couple
years ago they had to take vaca-
tion time when they went out of
town with the team.
LSU compensates Madden for
any hotel rooms and travel ex-
penses, which was a common ar-
rangement according to re-
sponses from police in Mississip-
pi, Tennessee, Georgia andSouth
Carolina. All of the departments
said the service did not cost tax-
payers inextra money inthe form
of overtime or special benefits.
LSU Vice Chancellor for Com-
munications Herb Vincent said
Madden is paid $40 an hour by
the school for home games.
The Alabama Department of
Public Safety declined to provide
information or comment citing
security concerns.
Many of the officers have been
doing the job for years. Gordy
Wright, Director of Public Infor-
mation for the Georgia State Pa-
trol, said Lt. Steve Rushton has
handled the assignment of pro-
viding security for coach Mark
Richt for all 11 seasons.
Mayes has handled security for
Mississippis football teamfor the
past six seasons.

playoff-type mentality in these
games. Other than that, he
made a statement all year long
and hes going to be an impor-
tant guy for us.
Rust said he is excited to get
back into game action this
weekend and added that while
his playoff ice time is un-
known, its important to pre-
pare as if hes in the lineup.
Im pretty confident in my-
self and I know when the time
comes and coach needs me to
fill a role, Ill be ready, Rust
said.
One more point
With three games left in the
regular season, the Penguins
need one point to lock up
home ice advantage in the first
round of the playoffs. They are
currently five points ahead of
the Hershey Bears for fourth
place in the Eastern Confer-
ence, and are likely to meet
their division rival in the first
round.
But clinching home ice isnt
the Penguins primary focus
this weekend, Hynes said.
We want to try and win the
games, thats the biggest thing.
We have to take another step,
Hynes said. If we do that,
hopefully we can get that point
early in the weekend.
New faces
The Wilkes-Barre/Scranton
Penguins added six players
from the Wheeling Nailers of
the ECHL on Thursday. For-
wards Chris Barton, Cody
Chupp, Ryan Schnell and de-
fenseman Andrew Hotham
have been recalled from loan,
while goaltender Patrick Kil-
leen has been assigned to
Wilkes-Barre/Scranton by
Pittsburgh. In addition, defen-
seman Peter Merth has been
assigned to a professional try-
out agreement.
Tough guy coming to town
On Saturday former Philadel-
phia Flyer and Pittsburgh Pen-
guin Dave Schultz will attend
the Penguins game against the
Bridgeport Sound Tigers to
sign autographs and drop the
puck during a ceremonial face-
off.
While the ex-Broad Street
Bully will be signing auto-
graphs for a limited time dur-
ing the game, you can guaran-
tee your chance to meet Dave
Schultz himself by attending
the Penguins Hockey 101. Fans
will have the opportunity to at-
tend a special VIP Meet and
Greet with Schultz prior to the
game.
A limited amount of tickets
are available for this unique op-
portunity, beginning at 2 p.m.
at Mohegan Sun Arena at
Casey Plaza. Cost of the tickets
is $30 and includes admission
to the event, a tour of the arena
and the Penguins locker room,
a Hockey 101 and a Behind the
Scenes session, a ticket to the
game that evening, an 8x10 col-

The BuschBrothers are adding
anewdynamictotheirrelation-
ship.
When Kurt Busch gets in the
car for Friday nights NASCAR
Nationwide race in Texas,
where he ran in that series for
the first time and won six years
ago, it will be his debut driving
for younger brother Kyles new
stock car team.
It is owner-driver, but it is
brother-brother, andits unique
withme havingthe upper hand
onage,33-year-oldKurt Busch
said Thursday. But I respect
him for the guts that he has to
jump into this endeavor, to be
the owner.
After the first of about 17 Na-
tionwide races driving for his
brother, they will be competi-
tors againSaturdaynight inthe
Sprint Cup race.
It was at Texas last Novem-
ber when NASCAR barred 26-
year-old Kyle Busch from driv-
ingfor JoeGibbsintheCupand
Nationwide races. That came
after Busch, driving the truck
he owned, deliberately
wrecked championship con-
tender Ron Hornaday Jr. dur-
ing a caution in the race that
started a tripleheader week-
end.
Since NASCARs last trip to
the 1 1/2-mile high-banked
track, Kurt Busch has changed
Cup teams. He split with
PenskeRacingaftersixseasons
in what was called a mutual
parting of the ways and is with
the newmuchsmaller andless-
funded Phoenix Racing team.
Both teams that Im with
this year are very unique cir-
cumstances, he said. Well
have chances at winning in the
Nationwide car, were going to
havetoclawandscrapandfight
real hard with the Cup car. But
were going to have our oppor-
tunities to have fun every
week.
After the Easter break, NAS-
CAR resumes this weekend
with the first scheduled night
Cup race of the season, though
not the first one. (Dont forget
that rain-postponed Daytona
500 that was run on a Monday
night).
Greg Biffle, who has seven
consecutive top-10 finishes in
Texas and won at the track in
2005, is therelaxedpoints lead-
er.
Biffle took advantage of the
time off with a Bahamas vaca-
tion, chartering a big boat that
hestayedonduringtheweek. It
was peaceful, withcrystal clear
water, pristine beaches and re-
ally no one else around.

game Alexander got the next
batter to pop up a bunt attempt,
keeping the runner at second.
He then picked up his 11th
and final strikeout on three
pitches to move the Spartans
(3-1) into a first-place tie with
the Tigers (3-1) in Division I
West of the WVC.
He wants the ball, Spartans
coach John Milius said of his se-
nior right-hander. He wants the
ball. I was watching his pitch
count very closely and(he said),
Coach, youre not taking me
out. Youre not taking me out.
Im finishing it. This is mine.
Alexander, who will play in
college at Old Dominion, fin-
ishedat under100 pitches to im-
prove to 3-0 with 36 strikeouts
to go with an 0.78 ERA through
18 innings.
Tunkhannocks McClain was
equally stubborn on the mound,
also surrendering just three hits
in six innings of work. The Ti-
gers junior struck out four and
walked one.
Im very impressed with
Josh, Tunkhannock coach Ga-
ry Custer said. His mental ap-
proach to the game has really
matured. Imreally pleasedwith
what I see with him. Hes a gam-
er.
The lone run on the day came
in the bottomof the fourth cour-
tesy of some small ball by the
Spartans. A leadoff single from
Joe Pechulis anda sacrifice bunt
by Alexander put a rare runner
in scoring position.
Josh Husted then came on as
a pinch runner at second, and
for a brief moment the Tigers
appeared to get a pickoff to end
the threat. But the infield um-
pire ultimately ruled that Hust-
ed was obstructed from getting
back to the bag and was award-
ed third.
Nick Hogan (2-for-2) then de-
livered with his second single of
the game tobringhome the win-
ning run.
Though Husted likely would
have still scored from second,
the Tigers had already gunned
downa runner at the plate inthe
same situation in the first in-
ning.
Pechulis and Hogan were the
only Spartans to record a hit.
McClain, Jeremy Lee and Alex
Zaner had the hits for Tunkhan-
nock.
Tunkhannocks a quality
team. I knewruns were going to
be at a premium, Milius said.
They have top-notch pitching.
I just felt it was going to be a
one-run ballgame.
I just wish, Custer said,
that we had the one.

Charlotte flight added
US Airways will add a third daily
flight to Charlotte (N.C.) Douglas
International Airport starting July 11,
the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Internation-
al Airport announced Thursday. The
new flight will depart Wilkes-Barre/
Scranton at 6:55 p.m. and arrive in
Charlotte at 8:44 p.m. The departure
from Charlotte will be at 4:30 p.m.,
with local arrival at 6:19.
The route will be served by a 50-seat
Canadair regional jet, the airport said.
Airlines more on time
Mild winter weather helped U.S.
airlines greatly improve their on-time
rates in February, the government said
Thursday, and the rate of lost or dam-
aged bags reached a 24-year low.
The nations largest airlines operated
86.2 percent of their flights on time
during the month. That compares to
the stormy February in 2011 when 74.5
percent of flights were on time.
Virgin America was most likely to
get passengers to their destinations on
time, with 91.7 percent of its flights
arriving within 15 minutes of the
scheduled time.
Google plans stock split
Google Inc. plans to split its stock
2-for-1 to preserve its leaderships con-
trol over the company and maintain its
long-term focus.
The online search leader said Thurs-
day that it is issuing a new class of
stock to shareholders, but the new
shares wont have any voting power. All
current stockholders will get shares in
the new Class C stock.
Google also said it earned $2.89
billion, or $8.75 per share, in the first
quarter. Thats up from $1.8 billion, or
$5.51 per share, a year earlier.
Total revenue was $10.65 billion, up
24 percent.
Food basket price up 6.9%
A basket of meats, cheese and other
grocery store products cost 6.9 percent
more in the first quarter of 2012 than it
did a year earlier, according to the
American Farm Bureau Federation.
The cost of meats such as sliced deli
ham and bacon were up due to strong
demand and tight supplies, the Amer-
ican Farm Bureau Federation said.
Flour, russet potatoes, apples and
toasted oat cereal have all become
pricier for consumers, according to the
report. Only three items in the basket
have gotten cheaper: whole milk, white
bread and boneless chicken breasts.

NEW LUZERNE BANK BRANCH FOR PLAINS TWP.
CLARK VAN ORDEN/THE TIMES LEADER
L
uzerne Bank is putting the finishing touches on a new branch office being built in the parking lot of the
Woodlands Inn & Resort in Plains Township. Robert Snyder, bank president, said the new branch will replace
one that has operated in the now-closed Sunshine Market. The 2,378-square-foot building will include teller
windows, two drive-through lanes and a drive-up ATM. The office should open by the end of April, Snyder said.
WASHINGTONThe outlook for U.S.
economic growthis looking slightly better.
American businesses sold a record num-
ber of goods and services in Europe, China
and other foreign markets in February,
while imports declined.
Many economists began raising their
forecasts for January-March growth after
seeing Thursdays government report on
the lowest trade deficit since the fall.
Theeconomystill has a longwaybackto
full health. More people applied for unem-
ployment benefits last week, the govern-
ment saidinseparatereport. That followed
last weeks report that hiring slowed sharp-
lyinMarchafter threemonths of strongjob
growth.
The mixedeconomic picture, alongwith
tame inflation cited in a third report, gives
the Federal Reserve more ammunition to
stickwithitsplantoholdinterest ratesnear
recordlows whenit meets later this month.
The underlying message is actually a
good one, said Paul Dales, senior U.S.
economist at Capital Economics, after the
trio of reports was released. It suggests
that growthis a bit stronger.
The U.S. trade deficit narrowed more
than 12 percent in February to $46 billion.
Thats down from $52.5 billion in January,
the widest deficit inthree anda half years.
Exports rose to a record$181.2 billion.
Dalessaidheexpectsgrowthonlyslowed
in the January-March quarter to an annual
rateof 2.5percent. Whilethatsdownfrom3
percent annual rate at the end of last year,
its better thanthe 2percent rate he hadini-
tially projected.
The number of people seeking weekly
unemployment benefits jumped last week
by 13,000 to a seasonally adjusted 380,000
a10-week high.
Most economists are waiting to see
Aprils hiring figures before declaring the
job market has weakened.
The unemployment rate has fallen from
9.1 percent in August to 8.2 percent last
month.
Exports bright spot for U.S.

CHAMPAIGN, Ill. Most
states are doing a poor job track-
ing whether their tax breaks for
businesses are actually spurring
job growth, including some that
have poured hundreds of millions
of dollars into corporate incentive
programs even while grappling
with record deficits, according to
a new report.
The report released Thursday
by the Pew Center on the States
foundthat nostate regularlytakes
a hard look at the effectiveness of
all of its tax breaks. Twenty-five
states and Washington, D.C., do
little if any evaluation, including
Illinois, whichis amongthe states
facing major budget struggles.
Only 13 were found to be doing
enough, the study found. Pennsyl-
vania was one of 12 states to re-
ceive a mixed results rating.
Its difficult to say just how
much U.S. states spend combined
on tax incentives, but theyve be-
come more common in the past
decade, particularly since 2008
when the country sank into reces-
sion. Unemployment rose and the
money available for state budgets
shrank, yet researchers found the
tax breaks states handed out may
not have produced the desired ef-
fect.
Given that states are rebuild-
ing their budgets and economies
in the wake of the Great Reces-
sion, these are mistakes states
cant afford to make, Pew senior
researcher Jeff Chapman said.
Among the glaring problems
identified with incentive over-
sight was failing to provide infor-
mation to state lawmakers who
have to sign off on the programs,
at least initially, Chapman said.
Pennsylvania was faulted on this
measure.
Therese McGuire, an econo-
mist at Northwestern University,
said that with the right informa-
tion lawmakers should be able to
create focused incentives that at
least increase the odds of a return
on a states investments, or to
choose to provide nothing at all.
Pew reviewed close to 600 doc-
uments for its report and inter-
viewed more than 175 people,
with every state participating,
Chapman said.
Of the 13 states listed as doing
an adequate job in oversight, four
Oregon, Washington, Arizona
and Iowa received the most
praise in the report.

State tax
breaks not
evaluated
NEW YORK Hewlett-Packard Co.
is showing signs of recovery as it
strengthened its position as the
worlds largest maker of personal
computers and gained back some of
the business it had lost while weigh-
ing whether to dump its PC division.
HPs stock jumped more than 7 per-
cent Thursday, after research groups
Gartner and IDC released their PC
shipment estimates for the first three
months of the year.
HP is in the midst of a turnaround
effort under a new chief, former eBay
Inc. CEO Meg Whitman. Her prede-
cessor, Leo Apotheker, wanted to sell
or spin off the PC business, a plan that
contributed to his ouster in Septem-
ber after 11 months on the job. Whit-
man decided a month later to keep
the unit, despite the growing compet-
itive challenge the PC industry faces
from smartphones and tablet comput-
ers.
The company lost market share dur-
ing that period of uncertainty.
According to IDC, HPs worldwide
market share dropped to 16 percent in
the fourth quarter, after HP signaled
in mid-August that it might shed the
PC business. HPs share had been at
least 18 percent earlier in the year.
IDC estimated late Wednesday that
HPs worldwide share in the first quar-
ter of 2012 was back to 18 percent.
In the U.S., IDC said, HPs first-
quarter share was 28 percent, nearly
back to what it had been last summer.
In the holiday quarter, it had dropped
to about 23 percent.
Despite the gains, HP and other PC
makers still face a broader challenge
from the growing demand for mobile
devices. In the U.S. and other devel-
oped markets, consumers have been
delaying PC replacements and buying
the latest phones and tablet comput-
ers from Apple Inc. and others in-
stead.

Today's weather
is guaranteed to
remain dry and
very sunny
through the
afternoon. With
the sun now as
strong as it is at
the end of
August, tempera-
tures will
respond nicely.
Skies will remain
clear tonight and

warmer temper-
atures for
Saturday after-
noon with read-
ings flirting with
70. An area of
showers will
pass over the
state tomorrow
night possibly
arriving as early
as 8 p.m. Very
warm air will
move in on
Sunday with par-
tial sunshine
then on Monday.
Better call in
sick, readings
could reach 80.

PUBLIC NOTICE
SANITARY SEWER AUTHORITY OF
THE BOROUGH OF SHICKSHINNY
LUZERNE COUNTY, PA
The Sanitary Sewer Authority of the Bor-
ough of Shickshinny (SSABS) will be sub-
mitting an application to the Pennsylvania
Infrastructure Investment Authority (PEN-
NVEST) for funding a project to upgrade
the existing Wastewater Treatment Plant
with a Sequencing Batch Reactor (SBR)
process. The project will occur at the
existing treatment plant located in Conyn-
gham Township, Luzerne County, PA.
As a result of the Chesapeake Bay Initia-
tive, the Pennsylvania Department of Pro-
tection (PADEP) has issued a new NPDES
Part I Permit for the SSABS Wastewater
Treatment Plant with new effluent limits for
nitrogen and phosphorus. In order to meet
the new effluent limitations for nitrogen
and phosphorus, the existing Shickshinny
WWTP must be modified such that the
nutrient loadings within the treated efflu-
ent are in compliance with PADEP permit
limits. The SSABS considered several
alternatives to meet these limits. The
selected alternative is the most cost
effective and proposes the construction of
two (2) sequencing batch reactor (SBRs)
to replace the existing three (3) contact
stabilization treatment units at the existing
treatment plant.
The estimated cost of the project is
$2,520,000. The SSABS has received an
H2OPA Grant in the amount of $1,519,648.
It is the intention of SSABS to finance the
remainder of the project costs not funded
by the H2OPA grant with a PennVest loan.
The current annual residential operation
and maintenance fee for wastewater col-
lection/treatment is $240/EDU, charged
by the SSABS to all property owners con-
nected to the existing sewage collection
system and existing Wastewater Treat-
ment Plant located in Conyngham Town-
ship, PA. This fee is proposed to increase
to $315/EDU as a result of construction of
the proposed project.
A request is being made to the Pennsylva-
nia Department of Environmental Protec-
tion to categorically exclude the project
from the State Environmental Review
Process (SERP). This request is being
made since the proposed project is not
expected to cause any significant, nega-
tive environmental consequences during
or after the projects construction.
Plans are available for review at the
SSABS Wastewater Treatment Plant build-
ing, 1 Main Road, Mocanaqua, PA. Written
comments on the proposed project may
be submitted for a period of 30 days from
the date of this advertisement. All written
comments on the proposed project should
be sent to Mr. Gilbert Gleco, Chairman of
Sanitary Sewer Authority of the Borough of
Shickshinny, P.O. Box 62, Shickshinny, PA
18655.
