TAMPA, Fla. Former Massachusetts
Gov. Mitt Romney swept to the Republican
presidential nomination Tuesday night,
praised lovingly by his wife fromthe stage as
the man American needs and cheered by a
hall packed with convention delegates eager
to propel him into the fall campaign against
President Barack Obama.
The hall erupted in cheers when Romney
strolled onto the stage and shared a kiss with
his wife of more than 40 years.
This man will not fail. This man will not
let us down, Mrs. Romney said in a prime-
time speech that sounded at times like a
heart-to-heart talk among women and at
times like a testimonial to her husband.
Its the moms who always have to work
harder, to make everything right, she said,
andshevouchedfirmlyfor her husband: You
can trust Mitt. He loves America.
I read somewhere that Mitt and I have a
storybook marriage. Well, in the storybooks
I read, there were never long, long, rainy win-
ter afternoons in a house with five boys
screaming at once, she said in a prime time
turn at the podium.
A storybook marriage? No, not at all.
Mitt is it,

cial adviser told county council
Tuesday.
The figure includes $293 mil-
lion in principal and $143 million
in interest and fees.
The county could reduce pay-
ments on multiple past bond
packages by obtaining an invest-
ment grade credit rating, said
Scott Shearer, of Harrisburg-
based Public Financial Manage-
ment, or PFM, which has provid-
ed financial recovery assistance
Luzerne County government
owes about $436 million in out-
standing debt through 2027 and
cant do anything to refinance
without a credit rating, a finan-
to the county for several years.
The refinancing of two bond
packages from 1997 and 1998
alone would save $1.5 million,
he said.
The ratingalsocouldallowre-
lease of some or all of a $6 mil-
lion reserve fund required by in-
surers for a 2008 bond.
Shearer advised county offi-
cials to take the following steps
to obtain a rating:
End the year with a balanced
budget or sur-
plus.
Adopt a re-
alistic and sus-
tainable budget
for 2013.
Show pro-
gress imple-
menting home
rule reforms.
Prepare a multiyear plan
proving the county will stay with-
in budget.
Improve financial account-
ing required by audits.
The county is on the hook for
$26.5millionthis year for debt re-
payment. Payments will increase
from $27.6 million to $27.9 mil-
lion annually through 2026,
wrapping up with a $22.3 million
payment in 2027, Shearer said.

EW ORLEANS Hurricane Isaac spun into the
southern Louisiana coast late Tuesday, sending
floodwaters surging and unleashing fierce winds
as residents hunkered down behind boarded-up
windows. New Orleans calmly waited out another storm
on the eve of Hurricane Katrinas seventh anniversary,
hoping the citys strengthened levees will hold.
Isaac, a massive storm span-
ning nearly 200 miles from its
center, made landfall at about
6:45 p.m. near the mouth of the
Mississippi River. But it was ze-
roing in on New Orleans, about
75 miles to the northwest, turn-
ing streets famous for all-hours
celebrations into ghost boule-
vards.
The storm drew intense scru-
tiny because of its timing just
before the anniversary of the
hurricane that devastated that
city, while the first major
speeches of the Republican Na-
tional Convention went on in
Tampa, Fla., already delayed and
tempered by the storm
While many residents stayed
put, evacuations were ordered in
low-lying areas of Louisiana and
Mississippi, where officials
closed 12 shorefront casinos. By

NANTICOKE -- Breaking
down what Luzerne County
Community College President
Thomas Leary called exciting
new initiatives, math professors
explained a new program to pre-
pare incoming students for col-
lege-level math courses.
At Tuesday nights board of
trustees meeting, math profes-
sors Joanne Kawczenski and Ni-
cole Saporito saidthat because of
high failure rates and too many
unacceptable entrance exam
scores, they have been building a
program since last spring that is
effectively bringing students up
to speed on foundational math
principles.
The program, published by
Pearson, is called MyMathLab
and relies heavily on the Internet
to provide individualized study
programs that let students work
at their own pace but stay in a
classroom environment.
The classes are not for credit,
but help students enroll in low-
level math courses and get into
their majors core classes, which
may not be attainable without
them.
Kawczenski said she arrived at
LCCC with different expecta-
tions.
I was excited to teach calcu-
lus. Now Im teaching arithme-
tic, she said.
Saporito, themathdepartment
chair, said that after three semes-
ters of using the course, she has
seen students show great im-
provement.
Whentheydocomeout of this
course, we can say with great
confidence, Theyre ready for
that (college-level) course, Sa-
porito said.
She said 15 instructors have
been trained to use the curricu-
lum for 42 course offerings at all
of the colleges campuses. Two
days intothe school year, she said
all the seats have been filled.
Its a big effort, she said. But
its paying off. Our students are
learning.
In other business:
In his report, Finance Dean
Joe Gasper said the preliminary
audit numbers for the 2011-2012
school year showedabout a 7 per-
cent decrease in tuition revenue,
and a 10 percent decrease in
state-appropriated funds for the
2012-2013year, but hesaidthede-
crease was anticipated.
Were basically on target with
our projections, Gasper said.
Not that it makes it good.
He said finance administrators
have askedacademic department
heads to slimdown, making only
necessary expenditures.
Learysaidtuitiondidgoup$12
per credit from last year, but the
college is working to prevent fu-
ture tuition increases.
Were constantly monitoring
costs to reduce the burden of en-
rollment, he said.
He said a final enrollment
count could be made in about
two weeks, so he could not accu-
rately say if the decrease will con-
tinue this year.
County Judge Richard
Hughes was present to swear in
two new board members, Jack
Serafin and Frank Bognet. Denee
Nichols was also welcomed as
the boards newest student repre-
sentative.
LCCC details program to prepare students for college-level courses
By JON OCONNELL
Times Leader Correspondent
SCRANTON -- A former New
York City resident has been
sentenced to life in prison for
robbing the M&T Bank in Ha-
nover Township in 2010.
Kareem Shabazz, 54, was one
of five people charged for their
roles in the Oct. 30, 2010 rob-
bery of the bank at 722 San
Souci Parkway.
On May 4, after deliberating
less than one hour, a federal jury
returned the guilty verdict on all
counts. Senior U.S. District
Court Judge James M. Munley
handed down the sentence
Monday.
Federal prosecutors said Sha-
bazz and two other people en-
tered the M&T Bank brandish-
ing weapons, including pistols
and a sawed-off shotgun. The
robbers vaulted the teller coun-
ter, closed the blinds and or-
dered employees and a custom-
er to drop to the floor.
Shabazz and the other robbers
left the bank with more than
$17,000, got into a vehicle being
driven by a co-conspirator, and
traveled to New York.
U.S. Attorney Peter J. Smith
praised the efforts of the FBI,
the Pennsylvania State Police,
and the Hanover Township
Police Department for their
diligent efforts in pursuing this
case.
WILKES-BARRE A city
man was sentenced Monday to
15 to 30 months in state prison
on three unrelated charges.
Robert Gribble, 43, with a
last-known address of Davis
Place, was sentenced by Judge
David Lupas on charges of crim-
inal trespassing, burglary and
retail theft stemming from three
incidents in 2011.
Gribble, who was represented
by attorney Christopher ODon-
nell, pleaded guilty to the charg-
es in April. Assistant District
Attorney Molly Hanlon Mirabito
prosecuted the case.
According to court papers, on
June 18, 2011, police said Grib-
ble entered a city home and
tried to steal copper piping.
Three months later, police said
Gribble entered the Uni-Mart on
South Pennsylvania Avenue by
smashing a glass door. A surveil-
lance video showed Gribble
allegedly taking a carton of
cigarettes.
On Oct. 26, city police said
Gribble entered the Boscovs
Department Store in Wilkes-
Barre and tried to take $1,304 in
jewelry.
COURT BRIEFS
It was another day-long dose
of heavy music on Tuesday as
the Rockstar Energy Drink UP-
ROAR Festival screamed into
Scranton.
Alternative-metal bands Shi-
nedown, Godsmack and Staind,
along with hard rockers Adelitas
Way, played extra-long sets on
the main stage at the Toyota Pa-
vilion at Montage Mountain be-
cause of the withdrawal of a fifth
band, Papa Roach, due toits lead
singers illness.
Adelitas Way, featuring Penn-
sylvania native Rick DeJesus on
lead vocals, took to the boards
first for a seven-song, 35-minute
set. Three singles from the
bands latest album Home
School Valedictorian were the
highlights as Alive, Criticize
and Sick fired up the crowd.
The quintet ended strongly
with Invincible, the song that
originally put the Las Vegas-
based band on the map in 2009.
Staind was next up and came
out firing on all cylinders with
Eyes Wide Open followed
quickly by Right Here.
The quartet fronted by Aaron
Lewis did its share of rocking,
but scored the biggest with its
ballads including Its Been
Awhile and Outside.
For its final number, another
ballad called This Is It, just
singer Lewis and guitarist Mike
Mushok remained on stage,
with Lewis showing off some
powerful vocals on the heartfelt
number.
To build anticipation for the
next act, the lights dimmed as
the full-length recording of AC/
DCs For Those About To Rock
We Salute You played on the
loudspeakers. With a final
scream of Fire! from the re-
cording, the white curtain at the
front of the stage fell and God-
smack crashed its way into its
opening number The Enemy.
For the next hour, the quartet
of Sully Erna (lead vocals, gui-
tar), Robbie Merrill (bass gui-
tar), Tony Rombola (lead guitar,
backing vocals) and Shannon
Larkin (drums and percussion)
did not let up, whipping the
crowd into a frenzy with an al-
most nonstop barrage of music.
Early highlights included
Straight Out Of Line, Speak
and Re-Align. After playing
probably its best-known song,
Voodoo, Erna climbed onto a
second set of drums as he and
Larkin put on a veritable percus-
sion clinic for the fans in Scran-
ton.
The group, still featuring two
drummers, played the opening
riffs to a few classic-rock staples
such as AC/DCs Back in
Black and Aerosmiths Walk
This Way, before bursting in
with a super-charged Keep
Away.
Shinedown, an alternative-
metal and hard rock band best
known for the song "Second
Chance" and a few others used
by WWEprofessional wrestling,
was set tocapthe festivities with
a performance beginning
around 10 p.m.
The music on Tuesday began
more than four hours before the
headliners took the main stage
as a multitude of bands perform-
ed on the secondary stages, in-
cluding: Jager Band, Cruz, Can-
dlelight Red, In This Moment,
Fozzy, Mindset Evolution, Re-
dlight King, Deuce and P.O.D.

EXETER Board member
John Bolin reported that as of
Aug. 22, the district had hired
Berkheimer Associates of Ban-
gor to replace the troubled
Centax/Don Wilkinson Agen-
cy, which has failed to distrib-
ute taxes to many Luzerne
County political entities.
District Business Manager
Tom Melone reported the dis-
trict has not had take out a tax
anticipation note to cover the
missing taxes.
So far, weve been able to
weather the storm, Melone
said.
Before voting to accept the
finance report, board Presi-
dent Frank Casarella told resi-
dents of the loss the district
has sustained from flood re-
funds of paid property taxes.
The district ratified a total of
$54,376 in refunds to property
owners.
The board appointed several
new employees, including
Frank Pugliese as director of
physical plant/supervisor of
building and grounds at a sala-
ry of $52,644.
Some residents questioned
the hiring policy used to select
Pugliese. Board member Carl
Yorina fielded many questions
about the qualifications of the
candidates for the position and
the interview and testing proc-
ess that allowed the district to
choose among them.
When that and other ap-
pointments were repeatedly
questioned by residents, Casa-
rella asserted the board would
stand by a recently adopted
nepotism policy and the best
person for the job would be
hired.
In other matters:
The board tabled a plan
that would raise the salaries of
school administrators over a
three-year period.
Board members approved
an agreement with Luzerne
County Head Start Inc. to pro-
vide Head Start with a class-
room as well as cafeteria, res-
trooms and outdoor play space
at the Tenth Street Elementary
School at a rental fee of $3,000
for the 2012-2013 school year.
In addition, the district will
provide meals and snacks to
the Head Start program at a
contracted rate of $14,768.
The tone lightened when a
resident lodged a protest
against the board decision al-
lowing the Field Hockey Par-
ents Association to sell confet-
ti at home football games. The
association had asked for per-
mission to sell confetti and
doughnuts. After a discussion
of the problems associated
with cleaning up after confetti,
the board voted the group will
be allowed to sell doughnuts
but not confetti.
The board presented a
new policy for concussion
management in athletic pro-
grams. The policy will allow
the district to comply with a
new state law that took effect
in July.
The board also presented
for review a set of procedures
that would allow board mem-
bers to attend meetings from
remote locations by using
speaker phones, teleconfe-
rencing and videoconferenc-
ing.

14-year-old boy facing an undisclosed
criminal charge in connection to the
shooting death of Tyler Winstead in
April is expectedtobe chargedwithevi-
dence tampering and giving false infor-
mation to investigators.
AngelinaDeAbreauisscheduledtobe
arraigned Friday morning by District
Judge Rick Cronauer
on charges of tamper-
ingwithorfabricating
physical evidence,
corruption of minors
and falsely incrimi-
nating another per-
son.
The charges were
filed Tuesday by city
police and Luzerne County detectives
and signed by Cronauer.
Luzerne County District Attorney
Stefanie Salavantis on Tuesday after-
noon declined comment on the charges
until after DeAbreau is arraigned.
Winstead, 14, died April 5 after being
found shot in front of DeAbreaus house
at117Hill St., wherehis friendandDeA-
breaus son, Elijah Yusiff lived.
Yusiff told reporters Tyler was shot in
a drive-byshootingwhile walkinghome
from playing basketball at the Catholic
Youth Center on South Washington
Street.
Winstead was found on the road near
the curb while his shoes were found
loose on the sidewalk. There was blood
spatter on the sidewalk in front of 115
Hill St. and117 Hill St., and a small pool
of bloodontheroadnear thecurbwhere
Winstead was found.
Winsteadlivedwithhisgrandparents,
who were his legal guardians, at 119 Hill
St.
Yusiff was charged as a juvenile with
anunknownoffense onMay30duringa
closed hearing in Luzerne County
Court. He returned to court for another
closed hearing on Aug. 10.
Salavantis has maintained state law
prevents her from discussing the case
due to Yusiffs age.
A county judge sealed Yusiffs record
fromthe public.
The criminal complaint and affidavit
filed against DeAbreau will likely have
details about the shooting.
Investigators searched DeAbreaus
house on April 10 and April 13, at which
time they were seen removing bleach
anda computer tower. Asearchwarrant
was also served for DeAbreaus cell-
phone records on April 30.

waslast searched, peopleremovedfurni-

vacant since.
City, communityandreligiousleaders
earlier this summer started a grassroots
community initiative called Building

new lease on life as a house of

worship services fromthe Twin Stacks
Center on Route 415 that it had called
home the past three years.
Pastor Gideon Gaitano said the
church completed the purchase of the
roughly 3-acre St. Casimir property on
Delaney Street in July. The $251,000
purchase price included the church,
rectory and land.
The congregation had been search-
ing for a newhome since last year as it
had begun to outgrowthe Twin Stacks
location. Thechurchnowhasabout100

hold 400 to 500 people.

the response of the community so far.

WILKES-BARRE At most pre-

against a defendant who is in custo-
dy, shackled and usually wearing a
prison uniform.
The scenario was turned around
Tuesday when Naeem Ford, 29, im-
prisoned on a probation violation,
testified against his alleged attack-
er, James Rankin, who has not been
jailed despite being unable to post
$100,000 bail on charges related to a
home invasion in April.
Rankin, 21, of Philadelphia, was
paralyzed when he was shot by a

Rankin had reached into his waist-

Ford said he underwent sur-
gery to have a 16-inch rod in-

He kept stomping on my

WILKES-BARRE TWP. Prose-
cutors withdrew three sexual of-
fense charges against a Lycoming
County man to relieve a teenage
girl from having to testify at a pre-
liminary hearing on Tuesday.
Instead, James Walter Zerby III,
45, of Linden, is expected to plead
guilty in Luzerne County Court to
having unlawful contact with the
child.
Zerby was arrested by Newport
Township police in May after the
girl alleged he sexually assaulted
her at a residence in Glen Lyon
from 2003 through 2006. Zerby is
known to the girls family.
Thegirl appearedfor Zerbyspre-
liminary hearing before District
Judge Michael Dotzel but did not
have to testify when Assistant Dis-
trictAttorneyJennyRobertsandat-
torney Thomas Cometa an-
nouncedthey reacheda negotiated
plea deal.
Roberts and Cometa told Dotzel
that charges of involuntary deviate
sexual intercourse, indecent as-
sault, aggravated indecent assault
and corruption
of minors
against Zerby
were with-
drawn.
Asingle count
of unlawful con-
tact with a mi-
nor, a second-de-
gree felony that incorporates sex-
ual offenses, was levied on Zerby.
Roberts advised Zerby that if he
does not plead guilty to the unlaw-
ful contact charge, the original of-
fenses will be refiled. Zerby is fac-
ing three to 10 years in prison, Ro-
berts said.
The negotiated plea deal erases
lifetime registration under the
states Megans Law, which would
have been required if Zerby was
convicted or pleaded guilty to the
involuntary deviate sexual inter-
course charge.
He will have to register his ad-
dress for10 years if he pleads guilty
to the unlawful contact offense.
Zerby remains jailedat the coun-
ty prison for lack of $100,000 bail.
A formal arraignment is sched-
uled on Nov. 2 in county court.

NATO soldier is killed
A
NATO service member was killed
in an insurgent attack in eastern
Afghanistan on Tuesday, and a hel-
icopter crashed on a mission overnight,
but no one was hurt, the international
coalition said.
No details about the fatal attack were
released. The U.S.-led coalition force
does not identify the nationalities of
casualties until individual countries
name them.
The Chinook helicopter made a hard
landing in the eastern province of Lo-
gar late Monday night, coalition spo-
keswoman Lt. j.g. Amy Hession said.
The aircraft was heavily damaged, so
the crew destroyed it before they were
evacuated from the scene, she said.
HAIFA, ISRAEL
Military cleared in death
An Israeli court on Tuesday cleared
the military of wrongdoing in the death
of a young American activist who was
crushed by an Israeli bulldozer during
a protest in the Gaza Strip nearly a
decade ago, rejecting claims by her
parents that the driver acted recklessly.
The verdict came after a seven-year
legal battle waged by the family of
Rachel Corrie, whose death remains a
powerful symbol on both sides of the
Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
The family said it was considering an
appeal to the Israeli Supreme Court but
wanted to examine the full verdict
before deciding.
PERRY HALL, MD.
Teen brought gun, booze
A15-year-old sophomore at a subur-
ban Baltimore high school who made
references to murder-suicide on Face-
book has been charged as an adult in
the shooting of a classmate on the first
day of school, authorities said Tuesday.
Robert Wayne Gladden Jr. was being
held without bail on charges of at-
tempted first-degree murder and first-
degree assault, Baltimore County po-
lice said. A preliminary hearing was
scheduled for Sept. 7. The states at-
torneys office did not know if he had a
lawyer.
Gladdens last status update on his
Facebook page, posted the morning of
the shooting, read: First day of school,
last day of my life. ... f--- the world.
His father told The Associated Press
that his son had been bullied. Balti-
more County Police Chief James John-
son said at a news conference Tuesday
that he was aware of the reported bully-
ing, but he said Gladden has not in-
dicated in conversations with detec-
tives that bullying was a motive for the
shooting. He did not disclose other
possible motives.
Gladden continues to cooperate with
investigators and was undergoing a
mental health evaluation, Johnson said.
PHILADELPHIA
Specter has cancer again
Former Sen. Arlen Specter con-

The 82-year-old Specter issued a
brief statement through his Philadel-
phia office. A family spokesman reac-
hed by The Associated Press declined
to comment on the type of cancer or
confirm news reports that he had been
hospitalized.
Specter, who was Pennsylvanias
longest-serving senator, has overcome
two bouts with Hodgkins disease, a
cancer of the lymphatic system, since
2005. He also has survived a brain
tumor and cardiac arrest after bypass
surgery.

PARIS French prosecutors opened
a murder inquiry into the death of Yass-
er Arafat on Tuesday, his widows law-
yer said, after she and a TV investiga-
tion raised new questions about wheth-
er the Palestinian leader was poisoned.
ManyintheArabworldhavelongsus-
pected that Arafat was poisoned, and a
Swiss labs recent finding of elevated
levels of polonium-210 a rare and
highly lethal radioactive substance
on Arafats clothing has fed those
claims.
However, the Institute of Radiation
Physics said its findings were inconclu-
sive and that only exhuming Arafats re-
mains could bring possible clarity. Pal-
estinian officials have waffled on that
matter initially approving the ex-
humation and then saying the matter
needed more study only further fuel-
ing suspicions.
Arafat diedina Frenchmilitary hospi-
tal outside Paris in2004 of what doctors
have said was a massive stroke, but the
Swiss labs tests have renewed interest
in his death. The findings were first
broadcast by Arab satellite TV station
Al-Jazeera, whichapproachedthe labon
behalf of Arafats widow, Suha. She pro-
videdthelabwithhis clothingandother
belongings.
After the results were released, Suha
Arafat filed a complaint asking for a
murder investigation. Her lawyer,
Pierre-Olivier Sur, confirmed on Tues-
day that the prosecutors office in Nan-
terre, the seat of the district where the
military hospital is, has agreed to take
up the matter. Next, a judge will be ap-
pointed to lead the inquiry.
Sur said in a statement that his client
would not comment because she want-
ed to let the judge do his work.
This is a good step forward, any step
aimed at revealing the truth about Yass-
er Arafats death is good, said Abdallah
Basher, who heads a Palestinian medi-
cal committee investigating Arafats
death.

WAITSFIELD, Vt. For some,
there will be block parties and pa-
rades. For others, a moment of si-
lence. Or it might be just another
day of cleaning up the mess.
But if theres one unifying event,
itll probably be the sound of all Ver-
monts churchandtownhall bells re-
verberatingsimultaneouslythrough
the same mountainvalleys that Hur-
ricane Irenes floodwaters shredded
exactly a year ago.
Gov. Peter Shumlin has called for
the bell-ringing commemoration as
Vermonters make plans to pause on
Tuesday or the days around it to re-
flect on how far the state has come
since the remnants of Irene un-
leashed the worst flooding in recent
memory, killing six people, wiping
out hundreds of homes and busi-
nesses, and cutting off whole towns
with miles of wiped-out roads and
dozens of destroyed bridges.
Landlocked Vermont suffered the
worst damage along Irenes trail of
destruction, whichleft morethan65
people dead from the Caribbean to
Canada. Cars tumbling like toys in
roiling waters and covered bridges
crumbling against muddy waves re-
main among the most indelible im-
ages of Irene.
Vermonters have a lot to cele-
brate on the one-year anniversary of
Irene, Shumlin said as he an-
nounced a four-day tour, fromSatur-
day through Tuesday, of towns hurt
by the storm. But we also need to
recognize that many people and
communities still need our help.
Thats obvious at businesses like
theWhiteRiver ValleyCampground
in Stockbridge, where owners Re-
becca and Drew Smith say theyre
still overwhelmed by all the work
needed to get the place back open.
We need contractors, we need
electricians, we needplumbers, Re-
becca Smith said. But the couple
said they have no means to pay for
all thats needed. Theyve been out
of business since the stormandhave
missed their mortgage payments
the past two months.
Janet Lumbra, a 37-year-old sin-
gle mother fromEast Granville, said
shell observe the anniversary by
continuing to work on the project of
fixing up her flood-gutted home.
She and her 16-year-old son, Riley,
lived in a camper across the road for
months after the storm.

AZAZ, Syria In the foreign halls of
power, the strategy is clear: Syrias op-
position should unite to present an al-
ternative to Bashar Assads rule a
step Frances president says would lead
to diplomatic recognition.
As a move toward unity, Syrian exiles
from the main opposition Syrian Na-
tional Council and other groups un-
veiled a blueprint Tuesday in the Ger-
man capital of Berlin for transition to a
democratic, transparent society free of
religious and ethnic favoritism.
But rebels and civilians in the bomb-
shattered Syrian town of Azaz near the
Turkishborder viewsuchtalkas hollow.
They are deeply skeptical of all exiled
leaders and believe what really matters
is their fight onthe groundtooverthrow
the regime.
They have never come up with a
united position that will save the peo-
ple, said Fadi Hajji, 25, who had been
camped out along the Syrian border
withTurkeywithhis wifeandtwoinfant
daughters for five days. All they are
good at is arguing. They dont represent
anyone here and they dont help.
There was more bloodshed Tuesday
as a car bomb ripped through a Damas-
cus suburb, killing12 people, according
to the state news agency. Activists also
saidanairstrike inthe townof Kfar Nabl
killedat least13peopleas fightingraged
nationwide.
With no end to the carnage in sight,
French President Francois Hollande
called on the Syrian opposition Monday
to form a provisional government, say-
ingFrance wouldrecognize andsupport
it.
Hollandes statement, believed to be
the first of its kind, was quickly shot
down by U.S. officials who said talk of a
provisional government was premature
given the deep divisions within the op-
position movement.
The head of the main Syrian opposi-
tiongroup, the SyrianNational Council,
criticized the U.S. stand, saying that ef-
forts were under way to forge a united
front but that the process takes time
especially in the midst of a raging civil
war.
It seems to me as if the international
community is not prepared to take deci-
sive decisions andblames the Syrianop-
position for its own shortcomings, Ab-
delbaset Sieda told The Associated
Press by telephone Tuesday from Swit-
zerland.
Those comments were echoed in Ber-
lin by opposition exiles who drafted the
122-page transition blueprint during six
months of consultations funded by gov-
ernments of the United States, Germa-
ny, Switzerland and private groups in
Norway and the Netherlands.
Many in the SNC have been hoping
the world community would impose a
safe zone along the Turkish border, pos-
sibly extending to a no-fly zone over at
least some areas.
Since the uprising began in March
last year, Syrias opposition has been
plagued by divisions and infighting.
The strains within the opposition
were also evident on Tuesday when the
Paris-based SNCspokeswoman Bassma
Kodmani, a founding member of the
group, resigned. She said the SNC had
veered off course.

PENSACOLA, Fla. A for-
mer medical examiner crudely
preserved human brains,
hearts and lungs in soda cups
and plastic food containers
found inside a storage unit in
Florida, authorities said Tues-
day.
A man bought the contents
of a storage unit at auction last
week in Pensacola and made
the gruesome discovery after
being overpowered by a
strange smell while sifting
through furniture and boxes.
Investigators found formal-
dehyde, a chemical used to em-
balmand preserve bodies, leak-
ing from a 32-ounce drink cup
with a cracked lid that was
holding a heart, said Jeff Mar-
tin, director of the District 1
Medical Examiners Office in
Pensacola. The unit had been
rented previously by Dr. Mi-
chael Berkland.
How horrible it is for the
against Berkland. His attorney
Eric Stevenson declined com-
ment Tuesday. Phone calls and
emails to Pensacola Police
were not immediately return-
ed.
Officials are trying to deter-
mine whether Berkland broke
any laws regarding biomedical
waste and the storing and dis-
posing of human remains.
It was not immediately
known why the organs were be-
ing stored there.
topsies he conducted while
workingat the medical examin-
ers office. Themedical examin-
ers office is nowcross-referenc-
ing names in their database
duringthat timeperiod, Martin
said.
Officials are also trying to lo-
cate family members for some
of the victims, but many of the
organs are not labeled, making
it nearly impossible to identify
them.
No charges have been filed
families of these deceased to
think that someones loved
ones organs are basically rot-
ting away in a storage unit
somewhere, its horrible, Mar-
tin told The Associated Press.
Berkland worked at the med-
ical examiners office from1997
until 2003, when he was fired
for not completing autopsy re-
ports. Officials said he was also
performing private autopsies
in the area, but its unclear if
any of the organs were fromau-

WILKES-BARRE A West
Hazleton man charged with
stabbing another man in the
leg during a fight in June 2011
has been released from prison
on bail after making the re-
quest because he had not been
brought to trial more than 180
days after his arrest.
Pedro Delgado, 25, with a
last known address of North
Third Street, was released
from the county prison on
$7,500 unsecured bail by
Judge Lesa Gelb after a hear-
ing Tuesday.
Delgado asked to be re-
leased on nominal bail in Feb-
ruary because a trial on charg-
es of aggravated assault, sim-
ple assault, reckless endanger-
ment and harassment had not
yet been held.
Earlier this month, Gelb
scheduled Delgado for an Oct.
9 trial.
Gelb said Tuesday that Del-
gado must live with his moth-
er on West Fourth Street in
Hazleton, and that he would
not be released from the coun-
ty prison until a probation of-
ficer confirmed the address.
Delgado, who represented
himself Tuesday with standby
counsel, was charged on June
19, 2011, after an altercation
on 3rd and Mine streets in Ha-
zleton, where Wendy Henri-
quez told police Delgado
stabbed him in the leg. Gelb
ordered Delgado to have no
contact with any victims in
the case.
Early last month, Delgado
also made a request to have
the charges against him dis-
missed because it had been
more than 365 days since his
arrest and he had yet to stand
trial -- a violation of his speedy
trial rights.
Bail OKd for man

Pedro Delgado, 25, of West

By SHEENA DELAZIO
sdelazio@timesleader.com
late Tuesday, more than
100,000 homes and business-
es had lost power.
Ed Rappaport, deputy di-
rector of the National Hurri-
cane Center, said Isaacs core
would pass west of New Or-
leans with winds close to 80
mph and head for Baton
Rouge.
On this course, the hurri-
cane will gradually weaken,
Rappaport said Tuesday
night from the Miami-based
center. He said gusts could
reach about 100 mph at
times, especially at higher
levels which could damage
high-rise buildings in New
Orleans.
As Isaac neared the city,
there was little fear or panic.
With New Orleans airport
closed, tourists retreated to
hotels and most denizens of a
coastline that has witnessed
countless hurricanes decided
to ride out the storm.
Officials, chastened by me-
mories and experience, ad-
vised caution.
We dont expect a Katrina-
like event, but remember
there are things about a Cate-
gory 1 storm that can kill
you, New Orleans Mayor
Mitch Landrieu said, urging
people to use common sense
and to stay off any streets
that may flood.
Tens of thousands of peo-
ple were told to leave low-ly-
ing areas, including 700 pa-
tients of Louisiana nursing
homes, but officials decided
not to call for mass evacua-
tions like those that preceded
Katrina, which packed 135
mph winds in 2005.
Isaac also promised to test
a New Orleans levee system
bolstered after the cata-
strophic failures during Hur-
ricane Katrina. But in a city
that has already weathered
Hurricane Gustav in 2008,
calm prevailed.
While far less powerful
than Katrina, Isaac posed
similar political challenges, a
reminder of how the storm
seven years ago became a
symbol of government igno-
rance and ineptitude.
Political fallout was already
simmering. Republican Gov.
Bobby Jindal, who canceled
his trip to the convention,
said the Obama administra-
tions disaster declaration fell
short of the federal help he
had requested, and asked for
a promise to be reimbursed
for storm preparation costs.
Local officials, who im-
posed curfews in Mississip-
pis Harrison, Hancock and
Jackson counties. And in
Theodore, Ala., 148 people
took refuge in a shelter at the
towns high school by midday
Tuesday, with minds focused
as much on the past as on the
present storm.

The state Superior Court on
Tuesday denied double homi-
cide suspect Hugo Selenskis
motion that sought to dismiss
the charges against him.
The decision clears the way
for Selenskis trial to start on
Sept. 10, although defense attor-
neys could seek to appeal the lat-
est ruling to the state Supreme
Court.
The Superior Court, in a 13-
page opinion, rejected the de-
fenses argument that Selenskis
trial for the deaths of Michael
Kerkowski and Tammy Fassett
constituted double jeopardy -- a
constitutional protection that
precludes a person from being
tried twice for the same crime.
Investigators allege Selenski
tortured and killed Kerkowski
and Fassett at Kerkowskis home
on May 3, 2002 while trying to
force Kerkowski to reveal where
he had hidden drugs and money.
Selenski and an accomplice,
Paul Weakley, then buried their
bodies at Selenskis home on
Mount Olivet Road in Kingston
Township, it is alleged.
Selenski had been charged
previously with the May 2003
deaths of Frank James and Adei-
ye Keiler. Prosecutors allege Se-
lenski lured the men, who were
alleged drug dealers, to his
home, where he shot and killed
them, then burned their bodies.
ALuzerne County jury acquit-
ted Selenski of the James and
Keiler slayings in March 2006,
convicting him only of abuse of
corpse.
Selenskis attorneys, Shelley
Centini and Edward Rymsza, ar-
gued the charges in the Kerkow-
ski/Fassett case should have
been tried at the same time as
the James/Keiler case because
they arose out of the same crimi-
nal episode.
The defense said all of the vic-
tims were found at the same lo-
cation, both homicides were
connected to drugs and money
and both crimes involved the
same investigators and primary
witnesses.
A three-member panel of the
Superior Court foundthere were
sufficient differences inthecases
to support separate trials.
The instant case involves
homicides that occurred more
than a year apart. Moreover, the
fact that the homicides occurred
at locations approximately 13
miles apart establishes there
was no particular pattern to
these crimes, even if both in-
volved money and drugs, the
court said.
Lisa Sands, sister of Tammy
Fassett, applauded the courts
ruling, but acknowledged the
case could still be delayed
should Selenski ask the state Su-
preme Court to hear an appeal.
It was such good news,
Sands said. We still have one
more hurdle.

Men and women keep dying, and
U.S. policies keep accelerating the
centrifugal forces that are driving
the country toward civil conflict

Sarah Chayes
The senior associate with the Carnegie Endowment for International
Peace published a commentary Sunday about Afghanistan, where,
analysts say, the war that began only a month after the Sept. 11, 2001
attacks has slipped off most peoples radar screens and is considered by
many to be over.
Voter ID law assaults
democratic process
I
would like to comment on the new
Pennsylvania voter ID law. I have been
involved in politics for 35 years and I
have never encountered a case of anyone
trying to misrepresent themselves as a
legitimate voter.
The real reason for this new legislation,
as is now obvious, is to suppress the vote
in key demographics. Even Republican
House Majority Leader Mike Turzai, in a
remarkable combination of childlike in-
nocence and political stupidity, admitted
that this law will allow GOP presidential
contender Mitt Romney to win the state.
What is most distasteful is the intellectual-
ly insulting argument used by the support-
ers of this law that they are concerned
about the sanctity of every vote. I guess
we are to presume that the votes of the
758,000 people who might not be able to
cast ballots have no sanctity.
This legislative action is nothing less
than an assault on the democratic process
itself. At a time when we are trying to
instill in students a sense of civic duty and
an appreciation for the political efficacy of
the franchise, our legislators pass laws
placing greater restrictions on access to
the ballot box. They have acted in bad
faith and their actions are truly un-Amer-
ican.
At least 10 other states controlled by the
same party have passed similar voter sup-
pression laws. Numerous legal challenges
have been filed, and I do not know if the
Pennsylvania courts will allow this law to
stand. But the fact that it has advanced
this far in so many states is alarming and
might require intervention from the feder-
al courts or the U.S. Department of Jus-
tice. It also substantiates an immutable
lesson learned from the civil rights move-
ment: The states cannot be trusted to
guarantee individual rights.

Pittston festival spans
generations of family
O
n August 19, the last day of the Pitt-
ston Tomato Festival, a 4-year-old boy
walked across the stage to participate
in the search for Little Mister Tomato.
His name?
Sammy Daley.
His dad is Sam Daley and his grandfa-
ther was Sam Daley. His uncle, Val DElia,
founded the Pittston Tomato Festival.
Hometown proud cannot begin to
describe the feelings of my brother Sam
and myself, or the remembered love that
my dad and uncle had for Pittston.

Growth in Wilkes-Barre
measured at the bars
O
ne of the most famous business writers
of all time, Peter Drucker, once said
that profits are the end result of many
good decisions a business makes along the
way.
Child rearing can be seen the same way.
The many good decisions a parent makes
will only improve the chances of a well-
adjusted child.
In the same vein, the plight of Wilkes-
Barre is the net result of many corrupt
decisions made along the way. Obviously if
you water down your pool of teachers
through nepotism, education will suffer.
Can you imagine a football team filling its
positions through nepotism? It would be a
disaster.
I want to take this point further, howev-
er, on a much more serious level.
Anybody who talks about growth down-
town cant escape the fact that much of the
growth is measured in part by the open-
ing of bars and taverns. Bars can come
with a heavy price tag. If you consistently
pour alcohol into people, the byproduct
will be something horrible (at least eventu-
ally). This includes strip clubs as well.

Gov. Romney succeeded
at stopover in Poland
G
ov. Mitt Romney returned earlier this
month from a triumphant visit to Eu-
rope.
I was particularly impressed with the
journey to Poland. Among others from
Poland, Lech Walesa invited Romney to
Poland. Walesa, Pope John Paul II and
Ronald Reagan were instrumental in doing
away with communism.
Romney and Walesa met and that ac-
complished much good.
We see with the present administration
that the missiles the Unites States had in
Poland were removed. Im sure this was
discussed by Gov. Romney and Walesa, the
former leader of Poland.
There are many more important issues
to be brought up. Let us pray that there
will be meaningful dialogue.
I hope and trust that people writing
letters and discussing issues would have
respect for the candidates.

Inertia on JFK cover-up
signals many concerns

Regicide: The Official Assassination of


John F. Kennedy was published in
2002 and is purportedly based on gov-
ernment documents that Robert T. Crow-
ley, assistant director of clandestine oper-
ations of the CIA at the time of the Kenne-
dy assassination, turned over to historian
Gregory Douglas four years prior to his
death in 2000. As photocopied government
documents reproduced in Regicide detail
the who, how and why of the assassina-
tion, you would think responsible people
in government and the media would feel
some obligation to end that colossal cover-
up since very few rational people believe
the Lee Harvey Oswald fable.
It is a sick joke to me that many of the
people making hay on the Jerry Sandusky
child sexual abuse cover-up have not the
least intention to live up to their obliga-
tions under the Constitutions misprision
of treason clause. For the past 10 years, I
have tried to have people in the news
media and state and federal governments
take seriously their responsibilities to the
Republic and its people by sending them
excerpts, and in some cases complete
books, to no avail. Documents published in
Regicide reveal FBI Director J. Edgar
Hoover to have been an active participant
in the assassination and its cover-up. So
subsequent FBI directors have had as part
of their job description the continuance of
that deception. On that basis, I can have
no more confidence in the Freeh report
than I would have in the work of any other
known dissembler.
Another cause for lack of confidence in
the Freeh report is that for many years
retired FBI agent Ted Gunderson tried
unsuccessfully to have action taken at the
federal level on gross pedophilia activities,
but no one in government or the media
would follow up on his initiative. What is a
cover-up aberration at Penn State, it
seems, turns out to be job one in the main
body of politics, media and medicine.
As a congenital skeptic, I never really
bought into the Paterno and Second Mile
facades, but the NCAAs measures make
me believe its presidents current power
trip isnt that far removed from what Sand-
usky did under color of the Second Mile;
but he is doing openly what the other did
somewhat less so. Rahm Emanuel must be
proud to have him as a student in his
Making the Most of a Crisis class.

NAWORLDfull of unmet
human needs, too much is
spent onmilitaryweapons,
the bulk of which comes
fromthe United States. Astudy
released Friday by the non-par-
tisan Congressional Research
Service said that America is
again the worlds top arms deal-
er, with $66.3 billion in sales in
2011, the largest in its history.
Developing countries made
84 percent of the purchases.
Top U.S. customers were Per-
sian Gulf states including
Oman, Saudi Arabia and the
United Arab Emirates. India
and Taiwan were other U.S. cli-
ents.
Arms sales have important
implications for both buying
and selling countries.
For the buyers, particularly
developing countries, money
spent on arms leaves less for
education, health care, infras-
tructure and other items that
could improve their peoples
standard of living.
For Americans, these sales
should raise questions as to
whether the United States be-
longs at the top of the list of the
worlds arms merchants, partic-
ularly to countries of the devel-
oping world.
Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
OTHER OPINION: WEAPONS SALES
U.S. is arms king,
but at what cost?
G
O TO SCHOOL.
Thats not a com-
mand for students
starting classes this
week in most Luzerne County
publicschool districts, but rather
a recommendation for their par-
ents and guardians.
Go to your childs school as of-
ten as practical, because it sig-
nals that you care about learning
and expect your son or daughter
to do well academically. Your in-
volvement matters. Loads of re-
search suggests that students
whose parents serve as volun-
teers for PTA-type groups, at-
tend school activities and visit
with teachers tend to get better
grades than their peers whose
parents are no-shows.
Pay visits to the elementary,
middle or high school where
your student spends each week-
day, because you should know
what happens there. Is the build-
ing safe? Whats served for
lunch?Themorefamiliar youare
with the schools standard oper-
ating procedures, special events
and trends, the better equipped
youcanbe to communicate with
your son or daughter, maintain-
ing close bonds even through
those tricky teen years.
Show up for a school board
meeting, too. Or a bunch of
them. After all, its during these
publicsessionswhenelectedoffi-
cials from your community de-
cide on the policies and pro-
grams affecting your childs
school experience. Too often,
adults dont take an interest in
these meetings unless the agen-
da includes a hot-button topic
suchas anewstudent dress code
or a football coachs status.
Shouldnt equal scrutiny be paid
to multimillion-dollar district
budgets and plans to scale back
full-day kindergarten? What
about districts in which public
corruption has festered;
shouldnt grownups with a vest-
edinterest inthedistrict as tax-
payers or parents, or both be in
the seats during each monthly
board gathering?
Perhaps your schedule wont
allow you to be at every bake
sale, pageant and PTA meeting.
Youre busy; we get that. But, for
starters, can you periodically
scan the school districts website
for general announcements and
important updates for parents
and caretakers?
Do your best to get to school
often between now and June.
You wont receive a letter grade
at years end; but for your childs
sake, you dont want to fail this
assignment.
OUR OPINION: BACK TO CLASS
Parents, dont be
marked absent

God, whentoldof Murphys new
job.
Does he need help packing?
Sorick asked sarcastically. He
will no longer be milking the tax-
payers of Wilkes-Barre.
Murphy also came under fire
for his role as a consultant during
the citys attempt to privatize its
parking assets. The parking au-
thority retained as its consultant
Fox Rothschild, a Philadelphia
law firm where Murphys broth-
er, Patrick, is a partner.
Fox Rothschild hired J.J. Mur-
phys company Goals Consult-
ing and paid him$300 per hour.
Murphy received nearly $35,000
in fees before the authority
capped consulting fees and the
plan was later scrapped.
J.J. Murphy has cost the city
way more than he is worth, Sor-
ick said.
Leighton praises Murphy
The mayor has another view-
point.
Leighton said Murphy is a
proven leader and effective ad-
ministrator who served the city
and the community with dis-
tinction for years.
He has served his country in
the U.S. Air Force and was de-
ployedtoAfrica in2008 andHaiti
in 2010, Leighton said. His
achievements extend beyond his
service to the city government.
He said Murphys GOALS
Foundation, which he founded,
played significant roles in the
construction of two playgrounds
in the city, and the organization
has broadened access to sports
for countless areayouths through
grants.
J.J. was a trusted adviser as
my administrator, and Wilkes-
Barres loss is certainly Hobbs
gain, Leighton said. I wish him
well in the next phase of his ca-
reer.
Murphy said he met some
great friends in Wilkes-Barre,
and he said Leighton and former
Mayor TomMcGroarty gave him
the opportunity to develop his
administrative skills.
I learned from each of them,
Murphy said. Im thankful to
Mayor McGroarty for giving me
my start in city government. And
Mayor Leighton is an incredible
leader and a good friend.
Murphy graduatedfromKings
College and received his masters
degree fromMarywood Universi-
ty.
Murphy said the corruption
scandal in Luzerne County that
led to convictions and guilty
pleas of elected and appointed of-
ficials has tainted the reputation
of the entire region.
Some people have painted all
government workers with that
same broad brush, Murphy said.
This area will have a real chal-
lenge to motivate people in the
future to get involved with gov-
ernment.
Murphy said he is one of 30
people in Pennsylvania who have
earned the highest level of exper-
tise from the International City/
County Managers Association
that of credentialed manager.
A major in the Air Force Re-
serves, Murphy said he is most
proud of his community work in
Wilkes-Barre.
Murphys new boss, Mayor
Cobb, saidMurphy was the unan-
imous choice of the city commis-
sion and himself.
His administrative abilities
impressed us, along with his mil-
itary training and his responses
toour questions, Cobbsaid. We
likedwhat he hadtosay about his
vision for our community and its
future.
Cobb said he did check out
Murphys background and his
time in Wilkes-Barre. He said he
was aware of the alarm system
controversy.

TAMPA, Fla. -- The day started
off with a breakfast featuring a
few big names including Speaker
of the House
John Boehner,

Boehner real-

way people pronounce his name.
Somebody bumped the lights
while he was speaking, and we

the consolidation of C3is U.S.
support personnel in Northeast-
ern Pennsylvania, a process that
began in 2007 with the opening
of a call center in Plains Town-
ship that employs 125 customer
service workers and managers.
C3i also employs 55 at a client
siteinSwiftwater, MonroeCoun-
ty.
Morse said the companys
move to Jenkins Township was
influenced by a local workforce
familiarwiththeserviceindustry
and the sites close proximity to
the call center in Plains Town-
ship. It was also heavily swayed
by an attractive state incentive
package, he said.
Its pro-business growth,
Morse said. We have seen really
excellent support by Pennsylva-
nia and Luzerne County
That support included state
opportunity and job-training
grants totaling $560,000 and
$454,000injobcreationtaxcred-
its, according to Steve Yokimish-
yn, regional director of the Gov-
ernors Action Team.
The depot occupies 41,000
square feet in a 92,400-square-
foot buildingleasedfromMericle
Commercial Real Estate. Morse
said having a pre-constructed,
modifiable space to move into
playeda major role inthe compa-
nys decision to relocate.
As we looked around and we
needed to make decisions in a
short time period, this building
had to be ready, it had to be emp-
tyandreadyfor ustocomeinand
design it the way we wanted to
design it, and so without the
building, we could not be here.
Greater Pittston Chamber of
Commerce President Joseph D.
Burke said he was optimistic the
companys consolidation in the
area could spur future job oppor-
tunities.
At the endof the day we think
that C3i will create the opportu-
nity for jobs, and good job oppor-
tunities, Burke said. I think it
wouldbequiteappropriatetosay
that this acts as a beacontoother
companies that might consider
investing here and carrying out
their work in the community.
According to its website, C3i,
headquartered in Morristown,
N.J., has about 1,400 employees
in its operations in the United
States, Bulgaria, China and In-

Lawtontoldcouncil past coun-
ty officials twice obtained cash
for operating expenses with an
unusual financing mechanism
involving county owned Moon
Lake Park in Plymouth Town-
ship.
The park was leased to the
Luzerne County Industrial De-
velopment Authority on paper.
Theauthorityborrowedfunds to
give the county money to cover
the imaginary lease, and the
county repaid the bond with in-
terest to sublease it back.
Thats the legacy thats been
handed down to the council and
staff and taxpayers, Lawton
said.
He said the county has few
capital improvements to show
for the $27 million bill that must
be paid the next 15 years. He
used the word binge to de-
scribe muchof the past spending
of borrowed funds.
Roughly $20 million of the
debt must be repaid by the state
for improvements at Luzerne
County Community College, he
noted.
Councilwoman Elaine Mad-
don Curry said the presentation
is a testament for the countys
switch to home rule govern-
ment.
What a mess, she said.
Council Chairman Jim Bo-
beckthankedShearer andthead-
ministration for presenting the
terrifying facts in a calm
tone.
The county has about $21.5
millionof borrowedfunds left for
future capital projects, officials
said.
Council members also dis-
cussed options for county tax
collection Tuesday.
Under home rule, council has
the power to stop using 69 elect-
ed tax collectors or reduce their
pay. The tax collectors are paid
$3.50 per bill.
Hanover Township tax collec-
tor Mildred Luba told council
members she will present a pet-
ition from more than 3,000 con-
stituents who want to keep tax
collectors.
Lubas husband, Len, said the
elected tax collectors have an av-
eragecollectionrateof 92.65per-
cent for countytaxes. Thecollec-
tion rate is 90 percent in the
three cities where collection is
handled by the county, he said.

evision at a hotel suite across
the street from the convention
hall as delegates sealedhis hard-
won victories in the primaries
and caucuses of last winter.
New Jersey put him over the
top in a ritual roll call of the
states.
New Jerseys governor, Chris
Christie, had the difficult job of
following Mrs. Romney before
the cheering crowd.
Christie, the convention key-
noter, declared, Leadership
matters.
Its time to end this era of ab-
sentee leadershipinthe Oval Of-
fice and send real leaders to the
White House, he said.
Republican mockery of Presi-
dent Barack Obama began al-
most instantly fromthe podium
at a convention postponed once
and dogged still by Hurricane
Isaac. The Democratic presi-
dent has never run a company.
He hasnt even run a garage sale
or seen the inside of a lemonade
stand, declared Reince Prie-
bus, chairmanof the Republican
Party.
The opening session passed
up no opportunity to broaden
Romneys appeal. Speakers in-
cluded Hispanic candidates for
office, former Rep. Artur Davis,
a former Democrat andmember
of the Congressional Black Cau-
cus, businessmen and women
and former Sen. Rick Santorum
of Pennsylvania, Romneys most
persistent, conservative neme-
sis in the nominating campaign.
To send Romney and ticket-
mate Paul Ryan into the fall
campaign, the convention
quickly approved a conservative
platform that calls for tax cuts
not government spending
to stimulate the economy at a
time of sluggish growth and 8.3
percent unemployment.
On economic matters, the
platform backs extension of the
tax cuts enacted in 2001 and
2003 and due to expire at years
end, without exception. It also
calls for anadditional 20percent
reduction in income tax brack-
ets that Romney favors.
In a time of 8.3 percent unem-
ployment and the slowest eco-
nomic recovery in the post-
World War II era, that went to
the crux of the campaign for the
White House.
The GOPplatformalso pledg-
es that a Republican-controlled
Congress will repeal, and Rom-
ney will sign, legislation to re-
peal the health care legislation
Obama won froma Democratic-
controlledCongress. So, too, for
the measure passed to regulate
Wall Street in the wake of the
2008 economic collapse.
On abortion, the platform
says, The unborn child has a
fundamental individual right to
life which cannot be infringed.

NEW YORK That Andy
Roddicks last match as a twenty-
something would not be his last
match at the 2012 U.S. Open was
hardly in doubt Tuesday, espe-
cially whenever he was
launching that intimidat-
ing, tough-to-handle serve
of his.
To close the first set:
ace at 141 mph.
To close the
second: ace at
134 mph.
To close the
third: ace at
127 mph.
Yes, even as Roddicks 30th
birthday approaches on Thurs-
day, even as his body has suc-
cumbed to injury after injury,
that serve is pretty much still the
same as it ever was. Nowthat he
more frequently faces opponents

Add emotional gymnastics
to the list of things Penn State
will have to deal with this
weekend.
Preparing for his first game
as a head coach, Bill OBrien
emphasized that Saturday will
be mainly about a football
game when the Nittany Lions
open against Ohio at noon at
Beaver Stadium.
Easier said than done.
Eyes across the country will
be looking to see how Penn
State responds to an offseason
as tumultuous as any in college
football history.
OBrien is certainly aware of
this, but he was careful not to
put too much emphasis on
what the game could mean for
both the program and the
university as a whole.
I think as far as Saturday
goes, Saturday is about foot-
ball, OBrien said. A great
college football game between
really two solid, really good
football teams, and thats what
Saturday is about.
Then, as we move forward,
weve got to continue the mis-
sion of good student athletes
that graduate, that are involved
in the community.
OBrien fielded several ques-
tions about a possible deeper
meaning in the game for Penn
State as a whole. Each time,
OBrien responded that any
sort of healing process goes
well beyond anything that
might happen Saturday.
He did acknowledge, howev-
er, that he and his staff would
talk to the players about con-
trolling their emotions in what
will be a unique atmosphere

The Scranton/Wilkes-Barre
Yankees were supposedtobe bur-
ied in the standings this season
because theyre playing all of
their games on the road.
Instead, the team is on the
verge of clinching its fifth Inter-

Division title in
six years.
On Tuesday,

League Manag-
er of the Year after beingvotedon
by the leagues managers, coach-
es, media and club representa-
tives. Its the second time Miley
received the honor after winning
it in 2007, his first season with
the SWB Yankees.
Despite the Yankees being
homeless this season, they have
posted the second-best record in
the I.L. with an 81-47 mark.
It is really difficult to ade-
quately describe the job Dave
Miley has done in the 2012 sea-

Vice President of Baseball Oper-
ations Mark Newman said in a
press release by the team. Dave
has met the extraordinary chal-
lenge of leading a team playing
144 games on the road with ex-
traordinary success. No one
could be more deserving of this
award.
It has always been about the
coaches and players surrounding
me, Miley said in the release.
Just like it has been every year,
once again this season, the Yan-
kees have givenme great coaches
to work with and great players to
manage.
Miley also notched milestones
this season picking up win No.
1,600 in his minor league career

PHILADELPHIA -- From one
incredible city to another, one in-
credible field hockey career has
gone back to school.
On Friday, Paige Selenski was
back with the University of Vir-
ginia squadshe hadbeena part of
since graduating from Dallas
High in 2008,
traveling with
the Cavaliers to
their season-
opener at Tem-
ple in Philadel-
phia. She had
been away from
her college pro-
gram for more
than a year in preparation to rep-
resent the United States at the
London Olympics before rejoin-
ing Virginia.
It was definitely the experi-
ence of a lifetime, Selenski said.
It was a lot of work -- a lot. But at
the same time the reward was
more than I could have ever
dreamed. It was hardto take time
away from the team here, but it
was for something that is a truly
rare opportunity.
The end result was just an
amazing experience, one that
will stay with me forever.
While the Americans didnt re-
ach the medal stand, Selenski
was among the teams top scor-
ing threat, posting a goal in the
final game of the tournament.
But the Olympic experience was
so much more than games,
thanks tofamily andclose friends
joining her in London.
Her greatest memory, though,
came from the first day of the
event.
Idhave tosaythe openingcer-
emony, Selenski said of her
greatest memory from London.
The size of it, what it represents
... it was breathtaking. Theres
nothing exactly like that any-
where else. Seeing all the people,
from all the countries, being
there representing the United
States, it was an incredible expe-
rience.

It will be two weeks shy of
a decade since Frank Solich
last visited Beaver Stadium.
Once again, it will be tough
for him to know what to
expect.
Then the coach at Nebraska
in 2002, Solich faced what
turned out to be the largest
crowd in Penn State history, a
charged-up atmosphere in
prime-time that saw the game
get away from the highly
ranked Cornhuskers before
halftime.
Now leading an Ohio pro-
gram that he has dramatically
improved, Solich again finds
himself having to consider
things out-
side of a
normal

The unpredictable part will be
the fans, eager to see a football
game without the heavy baggage
of the last game at Beaver Stadi-
um coincidentally, also against
Nebraska last November, days af-
ter Jerry Sandusky was arrested
and Joe Paterno was fired.
For Solich, the key is to shut
out as much of that background
noise as possible.
Number one, its obvious that
the reason were going to Penn
State is to play a football game,
Solich said. And thats what
were focused on. Weve tried to
not have all the other areas that
can surround a football game
and certainly this one enter in-
to it. Because were just prepar-
ing to play a game.
Now, there are a lot of things
that have to be addressed to
make sure that your guys feel as
comfortable as possible in going
there andgettinglineduptoplay
the game. To have as fewsurpris-
es prior to the kickoff as there
can be.
Solich is well familiar with
overwhelming crowds from his
six years as head coach at Ne-
braska, a programhe spent near-
ly 30 years at as a player and a
coach. And the Bobcats, long an
afterthought in the Mid-Ameri-
can Conference, are now the
league favorite, having been to
three straight bowl games and
winning one last season for the
first time in school history.
In other words, Ohio is better
prepared to play in a place like
Penn State than nearly all of the
Lions recent opening oppo-
nents, populated with FCS out-
fits like Coastal Carolina, Young-
stown State and Indiana State.
Solich brings a big-game men-
tality to the Bobcats. And he
knows as well as anyone the task
that lies ahead of Bill OBrien in
his first game leading the Lions.
Born near Johnstown in west-
ern Pennsylvania, Solich hap-
pened to be the one to replace
legendary Huskers coach Tom
Osborne, being selected for the
job by an athletic director hand-
picked by Graham Spanier, the
former Nebraska chancellor and
Penn State president.
Despite winning 59 games in
six years at Nebraska, Solich was
fired because of those incredibly
high expectations set by his
predecessor.
Obviously hes got more chal-
lenges than most any football
coach that I can remember, So-
lich said of OBrien. But the
challenge of replacing a program
with a tremendously successful
coach prior to you is daunting.
When you look at the Nebraska
situation, not only did Tom Os-
borne win three national cham-
pionships and had tremendous
success, especially at the end,
but he set the programs expecta-
tions right at the very top in the
country. And Bob Devaney was
before Tom, and he started the
success at Nebraska.
Obviously Joe, Coach Pater-
no, was at Penn State for all
those years and had all that suc-
cess. And the expectations there
are, Im sure, very much the
same as what they were when I
took over at Nebraska. Theres
some things that transpiredthat,
obviously, complicated things
more (for OBrien).
CHANGE
Continued from Page 1B
the first game since the death of
Joe Paterno, the conviction of
Jerry Sandusky andthe establish-
ment of severe sanctions on the
team by the NCAA.
If our guys can control their
emotions and play within them-
selves and not try to be heroes
just play the way theyve been
playing in practice then well
have a (good) shot early on,
OBrien said. But its something
that we have talked about and
well continue to talk about.
And, naturally, the same thing
holds true for the coach himself.
I will certainly have butter-
flies before this game, OBrien
said. Id be crazy to tell you oth-
erwise. I mean, this is my first
football game as a head football
coach. But as soon as you kick it
off and for me, as soon as we
start calling plays on offense and
get the thing going then obvi-
ously youre focused on the game
and the butterflies go away.
Infirmary report
The Lions expect to have most
of their team ready to go to face
the Bobcats. Only three players
reserves Mark Arcidiacono, Brad
Bars and Ty Howle have been
ruled out.
OBriensaidhe expects players
who have been dealing with mi-
nor injuries during camp, like de-
fensive end Pete Massaro and
safety Jake Fagnano, will suit up
on Saturday.
Massaro was dealing with
some knee soreness incamp. The
fifth-year senior is coming back
from his second ACL surgery.
I do expect Pete to play. Pete
has played a lot of good football
for Penn State, and hes really a
top-notch kid, OBrien said. He
plays hard. Hes hadsomekneeis-
sues, and so I expect him to play
on Saturday. And then as the
season goes on, just like with
most veteran older players, were
going to have to monitor how
much he practices and plays.
Redshirt freshman Deion
Barnes will likely spell Massaro
throughout the game. Fagnano
and Stephen Obeng-Agyapong
could both see time at strong
safety.
Rounding out the lineup
With the opener approaching,
OBrien said he still hasnt final-
ized every starting position.
At the opening of practice on
Tuesday, senior Mike Farrell was
reportedly warming up with the
first teamoffensive line, ahead of
junior Adam Gress at right tack-
le.
OBrien also said he wasnt cer-
tain on who he would have re-
turning punts and kicks in the
opener, confirming only that
sophomore Alex Kenney will be
in the mix.
Havent really decided on that
yet, OBrien said. You guys will
see for yourself on Saturday who
we have back there. Thats some-
thing thats ongoing. And the
places that Ive been before, its a
competition throughout the
week, andthenongame day well
let them know whos returning
kicks and punts.
EMOTION

about that you are there for your
country.
After London, Selenski got to
spend a few days in the Back
Mountain area with family be-
fore getting back to Charlottes-
ville and the No. 8 team in Divi-
sion I.
I didnt have to get right back
tocollege, soI got tospendsome
time with family and friends,
Selenski said. I needed a little
time off -- I needed it physically
and I needed a mental break,
too.
She has plenty of fond memo-
ries of her days at Dallas, and
credits participation in other
sports, like track and field, with
helping her have the success in
field hockey she is enjoying now.
After playing to packed houses
in England, Selenski smiles as
she recalls her days with the
Mountaineers.
High school wise, everything
is on such a smaller scale, she
said. It feels so close and yet,
now, its so far away. When you
are on a stage such as the Olym-
pics, playing in front of over
18,000 people like that, and you
think back to playing in high
school just four years ago. Its
wow, I was playing on grass and
the game was so much slower.
It all just seems crazy now
looking back.
Her timeawayfromtheVirgin-
ia program saw the team slip be-
low .500 without the All-Ameri-
can and her Olympic teammate,
Michelle Vittese. But during her
time away, Selenski already
one of the best in the country
got even better.
Shes much more profession-
al about what she does, Virginia
coach Michele Madison said.
Shes always been very commit-
ted, had exceptional ball skills
and such. But its amazing how
shes taken it to yet another lev-
el.
All in all, Selenski has had an
impressive career, even though
theres still a longwayfor it togo.
She scored Sunday at Penn
State, giving her 74 goals in 70
college games placing her near
the top 100 all-time Division I
scorers. A season like her last at
U.Va. wouldput her over the cen-
tury mark in goals, and propel
her well past 200 career points.
She also has one Olympics un-
der her belt and another in her
sights she is frankabout her de-
sire to play in Rio in 2016.
All this success, welcomed by
the three-time college All-Amer-
ican, seemed like nothing more
than the wildest of dreams when
she wore her trademark blue
Dallas field hockey uniform.
I wantedto be onthe national
team, Selenski said. But even
when I was on the junior team, I
just never thought I would be
abletomakethenational teamin
my junior year of college.
When youre that young, you
never think you can get to that
level.
Yet Selenski did, her dedica-
tion paying off with a trip to the
worlds biggest sporting stage.
And likely another one in the fu-
ture.

NEW YORK Lance Arm-
strongs reputation may be per-
manently stained but in the eyes
of corporate and individual do-
nors, his charity still wears an un-
sullied yellow jersey.
Armstrong announced last
week he would no longer fight
the doping allegations that have
dogged him for years. He was
subsequently stripped of his re-
cord seven Tour de France titles
and banned fromprofessional cy-
cling.
But in the days following the
announcement, the Lance Arm-
strong Foundation was showered
with donations and pledges of
continued support for its mission
of promoting cancer awareness
and research.
Public relations professionals
say that while the famous cyclist
andcancer survivor remains a po-
larizing figure, even his nay-
sayers will have a hard time turn-
ing their back on the foundation
and its trademark Livestrong yel-
low bracelets.
Armstrongs decision not to
contest the doping charges may
allowboth himand his charity to
finally move on, they say.
He never said hes guilty, he
saidhes sick of fighting, saidPe-
ter Shankman, a vice president at
the public relations firm Vocus
Inc., noting that none of the alle-
gations against Armstrong have
been proven. He becomes a hero
in this.
Armstrong, who retired a year
ago and turns 41 next month, de-
nies he ever took banned sub-
stances in his career, calling the
U.S. Anti-Doping Agencys inves-
tigation a witch hunt carried
out without any physical evi-
dence. He said Thursday he
would no longer challenge the
USADAs allegations and de-
clined to enter the agencys arbi-
tration process.
On Friday, the USADA wiped
out 14 years of Armstrongs ca-
reer and barred him from the
sport for life.

6-4, 6-4 victory Roddick
knows more than ever he needs
to rely on the best thing hes got,
and 20 aces helped this time.
You really dont see that
shot, Williams said glowingly
about Roddicks serve.
Heading into his Grand Slam
debut, the 283rd-ranked Wil-
liams had one primary concern:
I was just hoping he wasnt go-
ing to go at me with a serve.
Im like, Oh, no. Wheres he
going? Thats the first thing I
thought of. Then it was, Itll be
great. I can play in front of a big
crowd. It was quite an experi-
ence, said Williams, the NCAA
runner-up for the University of
Tennessee last year and a 12-
year-old when Roddick won the
U.S. Open in 2003.
That was the last Grand Slam
singles title for an American
man, the longest drought in his-
tory for a country that produced
the likes of Pete Sampras, Andre
Agassi, John McEnroe and Jim-
my Connors (not tomentionoth-
ers such as Bill Tilden or Don
Budge).
Roddick found himself in an
era dominated by Roger Federer
and Rafael Nadal and, more
recently and to a lesser extent,
Novak Djokovic, who began de-
fense of his U.S. Open title by
overwhelming 69th-ranked Pao-
lo Lorenzi of Italy 6-1, 6-0, 6-1 on
Tuesday night and while he is
without a second major cham-
pionship for his resume, he kept
adapting his game to try to do
just that.
Roddick dedicated himself to
stronger fitness. He learned a
better backhand. He improved
his volleying.
I saw the way the game was
going. You have to get stronger
and quicker. I dont think there
was much room for a plodder
who could hit the ball pretty
hard, Roddick said. It was a
conscious effort, at times, and I
feel like thats added to longevity
a little bit.
Following Roddick into Ar-
thur Ashe Stadium was 32-year-
old Venus Williams, playing her
first U.S. Open match since she
pulled out before the second
round in 2011 and revealed she
had been diagnosed with an au-
toimmune disease.
Honestly, I didnt even under-
stand what I was going through
at that time last year. I feel like
just this summer Ive come to ac-
ceptance. Like it takes a long
time to come to acceptance, es-
pecially when youre an athlete.
You see yourself as this healthy
person that nothing can defeat
you, Williams said. Soit takes a
while before you can kind of see
yourself as someone with flaws
and chips in the armor. Nowthat
I have come to accept it, it helps
me a lot in howI need to prepare
for my matches, the mindset I
need to come into it.
After a shaky start, dropping
the first two games and even
seven points in a row in one
stretch Williams used her
own powerful serve to right her-
self and beat Bethanie Mattek-
Sands of the U.S. 6-3, 6-1. One
serve at 124 mph jammed Mat-
tek-Sands left index finger, shov-
ing it into a racket string so hard
she needed attention from a
trainer.
She was crushing her serves,
Mattek-Sands said. I dont think
anyones returning those, so Im
not going to beat myself up too
much.
Venus Williams won the 2000
and 2001 U.S. Opens, two of her
seven career Grand Slam titles.
Thats half as many as her young-
er sister, Serena, who began her
bidfor No. 15 witha 6-1, 6-1victo-
ryover 75th-rankedCoCoVande-
weghe in Tuesdays last match in
Ashe, yet another all-American
affair.
The younger Williams wonthe
U.S. Open in 1999, 2002 and
2008, and is among the favorites
in 2012 considering the way she
dominated the competition re-
cently while winning Wimble-
don and a gold medal at the Lon-
don Olympics.
We need more American
champions here to hold up these
amazing trophies, Serena Wil-
liams said.
Three of the days most nota-
ble upsets were turned in by
young, up-and-coming Ameri-
cans. In singles, 19-year-old
Sloane Stephens, who is ranked
44th, eliminated 2010 French
OpenchampionFrancescaSchia-
vone 6-3, 6-4. And in doubles, 19-
year-old Jack Sock and 22-year-
old Steve Johnson knocked out
the top-seeded teamof Max Mir-
nyi of Belarus and Daniel Nestor
of Canada 1-6, 7-6 (4), 6-2, while
brothers RyanandChristianHar-
rison defeated last years run-
ners-up, Mariusz Fyrstenberg
andMarcinMatkowski of Poland
7-6 (3), 2-6, 7-6 (7).
One other exit of significance:
2009 runner-up Caroline Woz-
niacki, who began the year
ranked No. 1 but has struggled
and was seeded eighth, lost 6-2,
6-2 against 96th-ranked Irina-
Camelia Begu of Romania. Both-
ered by a bad right knee, Woz-
niacki also lost in the first round
at Wimbledon.

had another fine start at home,
Nick Swisher extended his
torrid streak with an RBI sin-

Ricky Romero his 11th straight
loss Tuesday night with a 2-1
victory over Toronto.
Hughes (13-11) won his sixth
consecutive decision at Yankee
Stadium, giving up only Adei-
ny Hechavarrias first major
league homer in seven innings.
He allowed four hits and walk-
ed three.
Rafael Soriano bounced back
from a blown save Monday
night, when he gave up a go-
ahead homer to Colby Rasmus
with two outs in the ninth, by
working a perfect inning to
finish the four-hitter for his
34th save in 37 tries.
Curtis Granderson hit a
sacrifice fly to help the Yankees
to their fifth win in 12 games.
They beat Romero (8-12) for

Adam Jones hit his 100th ca-
reer home run for the Orioles,
who moved a season-high 14
games over .500 (71-57) and
remained atop the AL wild-
card standings.
The only hit against Tillman
(7-2) was an infield dribbler by
Dayan Viciedo in the fifth in-
ning that shortstop J.J. Hardy
couldnt snag with an attempt-
ed barehanded pickup. Pitch-
ing on six days rest, Tillman
walked four, struck out five and
did not allow a runner past

relievers extended Clevelands
scoreless streak to 22 innings.
Brandon Moss and Chris
Carter homered off Zach McAl-

fourth straight to remain tied
with Baltimore atop the AL
wild-card race. Oakland is 5-0
against Cleveland and has won
10 of 12 since dropping eight of

Milone (11-9) worked six
innings. Jerry Blevins, Pat
Neshek and Evan Scribner
completed Oaklands third

ARLINGTON, Texas Yu
Darvish struck out 10 over

Ian Kinsler homered to give
Texas enough against the sud-
denly sliding Rays, who have
lost four in a row, had runners
on base in each of the first five

and still couldnt score. It was
their fourth 1-0 loss this season

naldFehr andhis players have an-
other proposal the leagues
second this summer to digest.
The two sides will meet again on
Wednesday at the NHL offices.
A less optimistic Fehr labeled
the offering a proposal that we
intend to respond to. Mean-
while, Bettman called it a coun-
terproposal to the offer the play-
ers presented to the league earli-
er this month. In that proposal,
the players had offered to take
two-, four- and six-percent reduc-
tions in Hockey Related Revenue
for the first three years of a new
collective bargaining agreement.
We felt in order to move the
process along, Bettman said,
we tried to address the funda-
mental issues.
Neither the league nor the
players woulddivulge specifics of
the proposal, although Montreal
forward Mathieu Darche said he
was encouraged.
We had a lot of people at the
office evaluating the proposal,
said Darche, who estimated he
received 20, 25 texts fromplay-
ers asking for details of the differ-
ent proposal. It didnt take them
five minutes to write it and it
wont take us five minutes to read
it.
The current CBAexpires Sept.
15 and the NHL has said it will
lock the players out if a new deal
isnt reached.
Limiting the personnel at the
bargaining table in the hope of
making progress, only Fehr and
his top assistant, Steve Fehr, met
with Bettman and NHL Deputy
Commissioner Bill Daly on Tues-
day morning when the proposal
was issued. Traditionally, several
players have joined in on the
talks.
Tuesdays session was the sec-
ond time in six days that the
meeting was limited to just the
four executives. Theymet for two
hours last WednesdayinToronto,
exclusively. That meeting was to
discuss the state of the negotia-
tions.
We dont know the answer to
that, Fehr said when asked if the
smaller meetings jumpstarted
the negotiating process. If it
doesnt (work), well findanother
way.
After the sessions in Toronto,
the return to New York was a
strange one for both sides. Nego-
tiations resumed in the morning,
as planned, but then took a slight
break while Fehr left the build-
ing. Upon exiting, he told report-
ers talks had paused just for a bit.
I think the appropriate thing
to do under the circumstances is
go back (to our office). Weve got
constituents and so on, Fehr
said at the time. And so well see
you later on Im sure.
He eventually returned to con-
firmthe proposal, and was joined
by player representatives this
time. Fehr was accompanied by
Darche, San Jose defenseman
Douglas Murray and Winnipeg
defenseman Ron Hainsey.
Tuesdays session was billed as
core economic, and if nothing
else, the players now have more
to work with.
Im trying to get us on to the
same page, Bettman said. Im
trying to get us on to a common
language.
But, clearly, he knows what
hes up against. In fact, following
the session, Bettman said he
wouldnt feel better about this
process until it is successfully
completed. He defined success-
ful completion as having a col-
lective bargaining agreement.
Times running out for that.

Meaningful step taken in new proposal by league
Commissioner Bettman said
hes happy about it and
players are still evaluating.
The Associated Press
CONCORD, N.C. TonyStew-
art joked Tuesday that his two-
handed toss of his helmet at Matt
Kensethwas not badfor a41-year-
old who doesnt work out.
Aside from that, Stewart said
hes not expecting any drama be-
tween the two drivers despite
promising to run over Kenseth ev-
ery chance he gets this season.
Youget over that stuff. Its been
part of racingfor as longas I canre-
member and that wont be the last
timeyouseetwodrivershaveadis-
agreement, Stewart said, adding
hell only run over Kenseth if I
needto. Its not our intentiontogo
seek himout.
Weve gotten along more races
than weve disagreed.
The three-time NASCARcham-
pion lost his infamous temper Sat-
urday night at Bristol Motor
Speedway after contact with Ken-
seth caused him to wreck as they
were racing for the lead. Before
making his mandatory trip to the
care center, Stewart waited on the
track for Kenseth to pass by on pit
road, and he heaved his helmet di-
rectly at the front grill of Kenseths
car.
Hewasabletojokeaboutthehel-
met throwduringanevent at Char-
lotte Motor Speedway. He noted
thethrowwasunorthodoxbut said
usingtwohandsgavehimmoreve-
locity, andhe may take some of his
fathersoldhelmetsintohisyardto
practice his technique.
It may happen again Ive got
a lot of helmets and a lot of races,
said Stewart, who was pleased
NASCARhas not fined him. I fig-
ured I was going to get some kind
of penaltyfor it, soits nicetoknow
thats something you can get away
with. I just wish we could get a
morelengthylistof whatwecando
andcant do. I thinkwecouldmake
it a lot more entertaining if we
knewwhat we could do.
Kenseth said he doesnt plan to
watch his back, but he did say dur-
ing tire testing at Kansas Speed-
way on Tuesday that hell talk to
Stewart the next time they see
each other.
Tony and I have raced together
for a really long time, Kenseth
said. Youre going to have prob-
lems here and there. Most of the
time its not one persons fault.
Were going to move on.
Kenseth had indicated after the
race that theres a lingering issue
between the two after incidents at
Sonoma in June and Indianapolis
inJuly, andhesaidStewart refused
tospeaktohimafter their Indydis-
agreement.
People arent going to see
things the same way. If they did
there wouldnt be as many
wrecks, Kenseth said. Hes
shown me a lot of respect on the
trackandI thinkIve givenhimthe
same respect back. ... I think at the
end of the day, well get it all
worked out.

PHILADELPHIA Brian
Westbrook will officially retire
as a member of the Eagles on
Wednesday and will be honor-
ed during a game against
Washington in December.
The former All-Pro running
back played eight seasons with
Philadelphia from 2002-09. He
is the franchise leader with
9,785 total yards from scrim-
mage, ranks second in yards
rushing (5,995), and third in
receptions (426) and total
touchdowns (68). He is first
among Eagles halfbacks in
receptions, yards receiving
(3,790) and touchdown catch-
es (29). Westbrook also is first
in club history in yards rushing
(591) and total touchdowns (6)
in the postseason.
Westbrook, a third-round
selection out of Villanova in
2002, set the all-time record in
NCAA Division I-AA with
9,885 all-purpose yards.
Washington Redskins
ASHBURN, Va. The
Washington Redskins have
released tight end Chris Coo-
ley.
The 30-year-old Cooley has
spent his entire eight-season
NFL career with Washington.
He has 428 career receptions,
including three seasons of at
least 70.
Injuries limited him to five
games and eight receptions
last season. The Redskins plan
to use Fred Davis as their start-
ing tight end.
Tennessee Titans
NASHVILLE, Tenn. The
Tennessee Titans have re-
moved receiver Kenny Britt
from the physically unable to
perform list, though he will not
play Thursday night in the
teams preseason finale against
New Orleans.
Coach Mike Munchak said
after practice Tuesday they
were close to activating Britt,
and the team announced the
move 3 three hours later.
The receiver has been reco-
vering from his third knee
surgery since tearing his right
ACL last September. He had
arthroscopic surgery on his left
knee in late June.
Both Britt and the Titans are
waiting to hear from the NFL if
he faces punishment for a
driving under the influence
arrest in July.
Atlanta Falcons
FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga.
The Atlanta Falcons have re-
leased backup quarterback
Chris Redman and signed Luke
McCown.
McCown spent the past
three seasons with the Jackson-
ville Jaguars, making two
starts among his eight appear-
ances. He worked with Dirk
Koetter, who is now the Fal-
cons offensive coordinator,
which undoubtedly contrib-
uted to the decision to bring in
a new No. 2 behind starter
Matt Ryan on Tuesday.
Redman spent five seasons
with the Falcons, the last four
as Ryans little-used backup.
Redman struggled in the pre-
season, completing just 53
percent with one interception.
Buffalo Bills
ORCHARD PARK, N.Y.
Quarterback Tyler Thigpen
will get a majority of the play-
ing time in the Buffalo Bills
preseason finale.
It is Thigpens final shot to
win the backup job, and the
newly acquired Tarvaris Jack-
son will take over in the fourth
quarter of Buffalos game at
Detroit on Thursday.
Jackson will be judged on his
potential as well, coach Chan
Gailey said Tuesday. Buffalo
acquired Jackson in a trade
with Seattle Monday.
The No. 2 quarterback job is
among several unsettled posi-
tions before the Bills set the
53-player roster Friday.

PRESEASON
N O T E B O O K
Michigan and Michigan State
are giving the Big Ten a couple of
early chances to burnish its na-
tional reputation.
Theconferences imagehas tak-
enabeatinginsomequarters, and
not just because of the child-sex
scandal at Penn State or the
NCAA penalties at Ohio State.
There is the perceived gap be-
tween the Big Ten and Southeast-
ern Conference, a gap many think
is growing wider each season.
That, of course, is not a problem
exclusive to the Big Ten. But the
tensionispalpableinaconference
that once upon a time boasted of
being the best in the land.
The SEC wears that label now,
and its six straight national titles
leave little room for debate. The
Big Tens recent performances
against SECteams have been less
than stellar, and the record
against other BCS leagues has
been nothing to brag about, ei-
ther.
All this makes for a delicious
opener when No. 8 Michigan
plays second-ranked and defend-
ing national champion Alabama
on Saturday night at Cowboys
Stadium in Arlington, Texas.
Michigan coach Brady Hoke on
Tuesday tried to juke a question
about the importance of repre-
senting well in the early Big Ten-
SEC matchup.
He mentioned the great aca-
demic institutions and athletic
programs of theBigTenbeforeac-
knowledging any duty to fly the
flag for the conference.
There is no question thats
part of it when you play a team
from another league, he said on
the Big Ten coaches teleconfe-
rence.
No. 13 Michigan State, picked
by many to win the Legends Divi-
sion and play Wisconsin again in
the Big Ten championship game,
can do its part Friday when it
opens against 24th-ranked Boise
State.
Spartans coach Mark Dantonio
said he is concerned only about
Michigan State, not how the Big
Ten stacks up nationally. That ar-
gument can wait until later in the
fall.
Collectively, weas a groupwill
stand together at the end of the
day, he said. Were not goingout
there representing the Big Ten
Conference as muchas puttingon
the green and white and repre-
senting Michigan State today.
The Big Ten was 4-6 in bowl
games last year after its teams
went a combined 7-7 in the regu-
lar season against BCS confer-
ence opponents and Notre Dame.
Last yearsnotablegames: Penn
State lost for a second straight
year toAlabama, Iowa was beaten
by Iowa State and Michigan State
and Purdue both were beaten by
Notre Dame. Since 1999, the Big
Ten is1-8 in the Rose Bowl and its
4-3 bowl mark in 2009 is its only
postseason record above .500 in
that time frame.
Ohio State won the Big Tens
last national championship, in
2002. TheBuckeyesplayedforthe
title again in 2006 and 07 but
werederailedbytheSECsFlorida
and LSU.
Wisconsin coach Bret Bielema
said hes come to realize the im-
portance of building upthe image
of the Big Ten in high-profile non-
conference games.
If weall win, it makesusall bet-
ter, he said.
Hoke said he is comfortable
having his team play Alabama in
the opener. The Wolverines play
threeof their first fivegames away
from Ann Arbor, including Notre
Dame and improving Purdue in
back-to-back weeks. They also
play at Nebraska and Ohio State.
We like it, and I like it person-
ally, Hoke said. When you want
to be the best and you want to be
champions and all those things
you need to play the best and play
those programs that are on a high
level. We think as a team, thats
just going to make us better when
we get into the Big Ten.

PHOENIX College football
is in for some big and, some say,
much-needed changes with the
switch to a four-team playoff.
Before we get to that, theres
still a couple more seasons under
the current system; the playoffs
dont begin until 2014.
And this one will be worth
watching.
Theres plenty of interesting
story lines, from Penn State try-
ing to rebuild in the wake of the
Jerry Sandusky child sex-abuse
scandal to Urban Meyers return
to coaching with Ohio State.
Theres no shortage of great
players, either.
Southern California quarter-
back Matt Barkley skipped the
NFL for the chance at a national
title, Michigans Denard Robinson
is a blur even without his shoelac-
es tied and Wisconsins Montee
Ball is like trying to tackle a
wrecking ball.
Great teams? Could be a few of
those, too. USC, LSU, Alabama,
Oklahoma, Oregon the BCS
could be under a lot of strain this
season with those teams all bid-
ding for No. 1.
So to get you ready, weve got a
rundown of some of the things to
watch out for this season.
Enjoy.
TOP TEAMS
USC. Barkley is back. So is his
top target, Robert Woods. Former
Penn State running back Silas
Redd was a nice addition. Post-
season eligible again, the Trojans
arent aiming for just any bowl;
they want a trip to Miami and
national championship.
Alabama. The Crimson Tide
have won two of the past three
national championships. They
figure to be contenders for anoth-
er.
LSU. The Honey Badger is
gone. All those other NFL pro-
spects such as defensive end
Sam Montgomery and safety Eric
Reid should keep the Tigers
from missing him.
Oklahoma. The Sooners have a
record-setting QB in Landry
Jones, a brick wall of an offensive
line and with the return of Mike
Stoops, Bobs feisty little brother,
they should be good on defense,
too.
Oregon. LaMichael James and
Darron Thomas are gone? Big
deal. The Ducks have plenty of
other players who can fly in those
new winged unis.
KEEP AN EYE ON
Arkansas. QB Tyler Wilson and
RB Knile Davis are back, coach
John L. Smith has calmed the
storm after Bobby Petrinos mo-
torcycle crash and subsequent
firing. All Arkansas has to do now
is get by Alabama and LSU its
only two losses a year ago
which isnt as farfetched as you
might think. Both visit the Nat-
ural state, one early (Alabama on
Sept. 15) the other late (LSU the
day after Thanksgiving)
Florida State. The Seminoles
return to prominence has been
rumored for years. Under coach
Jimbo Fisher, it may actually
happen this season.
Wisconsin. The Badgers are
hungry after consecutive Rose
Bowl losses and they have Ball,
one of the nations best running
backs.
TOP PLAYERS
Barkley, USC. Projected as a
high NFL draft pick, Barkley
became an instant Heisman
Trophy front-runner when he
announced he was coming back
for his senior season.
Ball, Wisconsin. The Badgers
star running back changed the
pronunciation of his name from
Mon-tee to Mon-tay. Whatever
you call him, dudes good.
Robinson, Michigan. The Wol-
verines electric quarterback has
churned out more than 8,000
yards in his career, most of those
the past two seasons. Imagine
what he could do if he tied his
shoes.
BIG GAMES
Sept. 1, Michigan vs. Alabama
at Cowboys Stadium, Arlington,
Texas. The annual opener at
Jerry Jones funhouse has had
some great matchups in the past.
This one could be the best of the
bunch.
Sept. 15, Alabama at Arkansas.
Winner could get the inside track
on a national-title run.
Sept. 22, Michigan at Notre
Dame. Last seasons epic finish
makes this a must-watch.
Oct. 13, Oklahoma vs. Texas in
Dallas. The Red River rivalry
continues after all the conference
shuffling and could become epic
again with these two teams on
the rise.
Oct. 27, Notre Dame at Okla-
homa. A rare meeting between
power programs.
Nov. 3, Alabama at LSU. We
may not get sucked into calling it
the Game of the Century again,
but it still figures to have nation-
al-title implications.
Nov. 3, Oregon at USC. Triple
digits in combined points is a
possibility with all those play-
makers on the field.
Nov. 24, Michigan at Ohio
State. Meyer is running the Buck-
eyes and Michigan appears to be
back. This rivalry could be heat-
ing back up.
THE NEW GUYS
There was quite a
bit of turnover in the
coaching ranks over
the offseason,
with some
pretty big
names
landing in new places. Heres a
few:
Bob Davie, New Mexico. Away
from coaching for a decade, Da-
vie tries to turn around a pro-
gram plagued by embarrassments
on and off the field under Mike
Locksley.
Todd Graham, Arizona State.
The fast-talking Texan has done
everything right in Tempe so far,
soothing concerns about bounc-
ing around while building excite-
ment for the program. All thats
left is to win some games.
Mike Leach, Washington State.
His offenses are always entertain-
ing. Sos his mouth.
Meyer, Ohio State. Burned out
no more, the two-time national
champion coach returns to the
sideline with one of the countrys
premier programs and too
many references to an Urban
renewal.
Rich Rodriguez, Arizona. Ri-
chRods three-year run at Michi-
gan didnt go so well, but he has
Tucson buzzing.
Smith, Arkansas. The Razor-
backs needed someone to smooth
over the ugliness of Bobby Petri-
nos firing.
Charlie Weis, Kansas.
Weis first stint as a head
coach petered out at
Notre Dame. The Jay-
hawks are hoping he
can turn around a
program that
languished
under Turn-
er Gill.

USC quarterback Matt Barkley (7) skipped the NFL for the chance at a national title this season
with the Trojans.
Wisconsins
Montee Ball
oneof theNFLs fastest playmak-
ers.
It was almost as if Wallaces
lengthy holdout one that final-
ly came to an end on Tuesday
never happened. Maybe because
thats the way Wallace prefers it.
Im not dwelling on the past,
Wallace said. I have no regrets.
He also still doesnt have the
long-term deal he covets.
Insteadthe 26-year-oldrestrict-
ed free agent will play under the
one-year, $2.7 million tender of-
fered by the Steelers and hope
something lengthier gets worked
out before the regular season be-
gins next week. As a rule the
Steelers (No. 7 in the APPro32)
dont negotiate contracts during
the season.
Wallace, who caught a career-
high72passes for1,193yards and
eight touchdowns last season, re-
mains optimistic an agreement
can be reached sometime before
Pittsburgh faces Denver on Sept.
9.
This is the team that drafted
me and its where I want to stay,
Wallace said. Im not really wor-
ried about down the road. Im
worried about playing football. ...
That was business. Im not on
that right now. Im here to play
football and thats it.
Evenif Wallacewont beableto
actually practice until next week
under the leagues collective bar-
gaining agreement. Still, Wallace
believes hell be ready to face the
Broncos even if it means cram
sessions getting up to speed on
new offensive coordinator Todd
Haleys complex system.
We have two weeks to the
game, Wallace said. Ive been
workingout. Ivebeenreallygood
conditioning. I dont think thats
going to be a problem.
Neither does quarterback Ben
Roethlisberger, who kept in con-
tact withWallaceduringthehold-
out. The twohave developedinto
one of the NFLs best deep-pass-
ing combinations over the last
three years, with Roethlisbergers
arm and Wallaces speed giving
the Steelers an ability to stretch
the field few teams can match.
While Roethlisberger allows
theres going to be a steep learn-
ing curve for Wallace, hes eager
to have Wallace back on the field.
Its kind of like your parents
tellingyouyouget a newcar then
it has to sit in the driveway be-
cause you dont have any insur-
ance, Roethlisberger said. Once
you get that insurance, you get
out and take it for a ride.

Banks profits rise 21%
U.S. bank earnings rose 21 percent in
the April-June quarter and lending to
consumers increased, adding to evi-
dence that the industry is strength-
ening four years after the financial
crisis.
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corp.
said Tuesday that the banking industry
earned $34.5 billion in the second
quarter, up from $28.5 billion in the
second quarter of 2011.
About 63 percent of U.S. banks re-
ported improved earnings as they were
able to set aside less for losses on
loans. And the number of troubled
banks fell for the fifth straight quarter.
Ford makes China moves
Ford Motor Co. is bringing its Lin-
coln luxury brand to China.
CEO Alan Mulally said Tuesday that
Ford will start selling Lincolns in China
in the second half of 2014.
The announcement was a surprise
from Ford, which previously said it
wanted to re-establish the struggling
brands reputation in North America
before taking it abroad.
On Monday Ford broke ground on a
sixth assembly plant in China as part of
an effort to increase its sales in the
worlds largest auto market.
The company did not say what vehi-
cles would be built at the $600 million
plant in the city of Chongqing.
Lexmark cuts printers, jobs
Lexmark is cutting 1,700 jobs, or
almost 13 percent of its workforce, and
says it will stop making inkjet printers
as part of a drive to cut costs as it deals
with shrinking sales of inkjets.
The printer and software company
said Tuesday that it will close its inkjet
supply plant in the Philippines by the
end of 2015. It is also putting its inkjet
technology up for sale.
Lexmark International Inc., based in
Lexington, Ky., says it will continue to
provide support and supplies for its
inkjet printers still in use.
Scrutiny for energy drinks
New York officials are investigating
marketing and health claims made by
several energy drink makers.
A person familiar with the inquiry,
speaking on condition of anonymity

ARMONK, N.Y. IBMon Tues-
day introduced a new line of main-
frame computers the companycalls
its most powerful and technologi-
cally advanced ever.
IBM said its zEnterprise EC12
mainframe server is designed to
helpclientssecurelyandquicklysift
through massive amounts of data,
meeting the demands of retail and
other clients in the age of Big Da-
ta. Running at 5.5 GHz, the micro-
processor that powers the main-
frame is the fastest chip in the
world, IBM said. Processing speed
is 25 percent faster than the previ-
ous model.
Mainframes are used by corpo-
rate clients ranging from banks to
chain stores. IBM says the new
model could be used by retailers to
manage online transactions and
analyze clients buying habits and
thenuse the informationtocreate a
morecustomizedshoppingexperi-
ence, such as a custom coupon is-
sued during a transaction.
Whether its retail or whether its
transportation, making reserva-
tions, whatever it is, the systemhas
been built really to help clients do
those newtypes of new-age transac-
tions, said Doug Brown, an IBM
vice president of marketing.
IBM says more than $1 billion
was spent on research and develop-
ment for the system at 18 sites
worldwide, with most of it in
Poughkeepsie, about 40milesnorth
of its headquarters in Armonk in
Westchester County.
The newmainframe is being pro-
motedasoneof themost securesys-
tems ever.

HARRISBURG Newspapers in Harris-
burg, and in Syracuse, N.Y., announced Tues-
day they will switch to a three-days-a-week
publication schedule in January as their corpo-
rate owner continues its shift away from daily
printed papers.
At The Patriot-News of Harrisburg, which
won a Pulitzer Prize earlier this year, there will
be an expansion of around-the-clock news cov-
erage online, said publisher John Kirkpatrick.
We are not making this move lightly, Kirk-
patrick wrote in an email announcing the deci-
sion. We understand how important the daily
print paper is to a large number of people in our
region. However, this is a major step to make
sure we are leading, not trailing, in the world of
innovation and solutions.
The newspaper will con-
tinue to publish on Sun-
days, while the other two
days have not been deter-
mined.
At the Post-Standard of
Syracuse, editor and pub-
lisher Stephen Rogers told
employees that newspa-
pers economic model has
become unviable. The Post-
Standard will publish on
Tuesdays, Thursdays and
Sundays.
If we simply maintain
the status quo, if we contin-
ue to do just what we have
been doing no matter how well we do it
The Post-Standard would face extinction in a
matter of years, Rogers said. This is an irre-
versible trend. We either adjust, or we perish.
The two newspapers are owned by Advance
Publications Inc. Four other Advance newspa-
pers, The Times-Picayune of New Orleans and
the three largest papers in Alabama, said in
June that they were switching to three-times-a-
week publication. Those changes were accom-
panied by hundreds of layoffs.
In Harrisburg, Kirkpatrick said jobs will al-
most certainly be reduced, but those decisions
are several weeks away and the number of edi-
torial content producers, such as reporters and
photographers, would likely remain about the
same.
A phone message seeking comment left at
the parent company was not immediately re-
turned.
Harrisburg paper
to publish only
3 times a week

At The Patriot-
News of Harris-
burg, which won
a Pulitzer Prize
earlier this year,
there will be an
expansion of
around-the-clock
news coverage
online, said pub-
lisher John Kirk-
patrick.
WASHINGTON The Obama ad-
ministration has finalized new fuel
economy rules that will require the
fleet-wide average of new cars and
trucks sold in the U.S. to double over
the next 13 years.
The average fuel economy must re-
ach 54.5 miles per gallon by 2025, up
from 28.6 mpg at the end of last year.
The regulations will bring dramatic
changes to the cars and trucks in U.S.
showrooms, with the goal of cutting
greenhouse gas emissions and fuel con-
sumption.
To meet the standard, automakers
will need to introduce new technology
to improve gasoline-powered engines.
Andtheyll needtosell more alternative
fuel vehicles. Critics say the rules will
add thousands to the price of new cars
and make them unaffordable for many.
The administration says the latest
changes will save families more than
$1.7 trillion in fuel costs and bring an
average savings of $8,000 over the life-
time of a new vehicle sold in 2025. The
standards also are the biggest step the
U.S. government has ever taken toward
cutting greenhouse gas emissions, En-
vironmental Protection Agency Admin-
istrator Lisa Jackson said. The gas mile-
age requirements will be phased in
gradually and get tougher starting in
2017.

Another refresh-

Canadian air
has been
injected into the
atmosphere over
PA, and because
of that we will
be rewarded
today with
having magni-
cent summer
weather. This
air mass will
be content to
remain in place
through
Thursday with
very low humidi-
ty and readings
Thursday morn-
ing outside of
town will dip into
the upper 40s.
On Friday, a west
wind will deliver
a dose of hot air
our way, and by
3 p.m. , temps
could be flirting
with 90. The
weekend will
remain warm
and as it looks
now, probably
rain free. Any
rain we get from
Isaac could hold
off until late
Monday, if we
get any at all!

NATIONAL FORECAST: Isaac is expected to move inland and begin to weaken, but rain and thunder-
storms will be likely over the central Gulf Coast and lower Mississippi Valley. Showers and thunder-
storms will be likely across the Southeast as well. A few scattered thunderstorms will be possible
from Southern California to the central Rockies, mainly over the mountains.

TASTE S E C T I O N C
THE TIMES LEADER WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 29, 2012

One of the great
advantages of living in
Northeastern Penn-
sylvania is the local
farmers markets. You
can select the seasons
finest produce, its
cost effective, and it
contributes to our communitys econo-
my. The array of fruits and vegetables
makes it easy to incorporate fresh,
healthy choices for all of our meals.
I recently bought some delicious
pears and created this tasty salad that
has a refreshing pear vinaigrette that
pairs well with the baby spinach,
Manchego cheese and the saltiness of
the prosciutto. I used Bartlett pears
because they are my favorite. You may
use your favorite pear in this recipe; it
is very adaptable.
This is a quick, easy recipe that can
be made in the comfort of your own
kitchen or by Vanderlyns, where we
will prepare and serve it to you. Either
way, you will be left smiling after this
seasonally delightful salad full of great
flavor.
We will offer the Pear and Prosciutto
Salad beginning today at Vanderlyns
Restaurant for lunch and dinner. For
reservations or additional features call
Vanderlyns at 283-6260. Our website is

PEAR AND PROSCIUTTO SALAD


Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients:
3 ripe pears, (your favorite (about 1.5
pounds total)
2 tablespoons red-wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
6 tablespoons olive oil
6 ounces baby spinach
3 ounces Prosciutto, julienned
1/2 cup sugar-glazed pecans
1 ounce Manchego cheese, shaved
To taste: black pepper

Method of preparation
1. Cut pears in half and core them. Peel
one pear half, cut into chunks and place in
blender with vinegar, mustard, 1/8 tea-
spoon of salt and 1/8 teaspoon of pepper.
Puree until smooth.
2. With blender running, slowly add oil,
until fully incorporated; set aside.
3. Cut remaining (unpeeled) pear halves
into 1/2-inch wedges and place in a large
bowl with the spinach. Pour the dressing
over top and season with remaining salt
and black pepper. Toss gently.
4. Place salad on chilled plate, top with
prosciutto, pecans and Manchego cheese.
Notes: Manchego is a sheeps-milk
cheese of Spanish origin. A vegetable
peeler can be used to slice thin pieces of
cheese.

n general, the less attractive a summer dessert, the more I enjoy making and eating it.
Messy-lookingcobblers andcrisps have that combinationof crisppastry andjuicy fruit that
I crave at this time of year. Same goes for rustic free-form crostatas, brown betties and
crumbles. None of them would win a beauty contest, but each one is quick and easy and
delivers fresh fruit flavor along with some buttery goodness.
So after I ran through my usu-
al repertoire by the end of July, I
was tempted to try something
different but equally homely: a
buckle. This dessert is made by
mixing vanilla cake batter with fruit
and then topping the mixture with
streusel crumbs. The sunken fruit
and crumb topping combine to give
the cake a buckled appearance
when it emerges from the oven.
Accordingtobakinglore, the buck-
le dates to Colonial times. Of course,
nothing was simple back then. To
bake a buckle in the18th century, the
cookfirst hadtobuilda woodfire and
let it burnuntil it generatedhot coals.
Then, he or she had to monitor the
heat underneath the cast-iron skillet
containing the buckle, moving the
skillet around as necessary so the
buckle would bake without burning.
Today, making a buckle is much
easier. The only difficulty is in decid-
ing what kind of fruit to use when so
much good stuff is available at farm
stands and supermarkets. Blueber-
ries are traditional. Sour cherries
(pitted, of course) also are great. Ital-
ian plums, pitted and quartered, also
would work. Ive been using a combi-
nation of peaches and raspberries,
which contribute sweetness and
bright acidity to finished cake.
The secret to a good crumb top-
ping is in your fingertips. Use your
fingers to blend the butter with some
sugar and flour. Then freeze the mix-
ture while you make the cake. Pinch
the mixture into small and large
crumbs as you scatter them over the
batter. The frozen crumbs will hold
their shape in the oven, while warm-
er crumbs might dissolve into a
smooth layer.
With so much fruit, it can be diffi-
cult to tell when your buckle is ready
to come out of the oven. Use the
toothpick test, inserting one into the
center of the cake to see if it comes
out clean of cake batter. But a little
moisture is OK if it is from the bub-

PEACH AND RASPBERRY


BUCKLE
For the topping:
1/3 cup unbleached all-purpose
flour
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons unsalted butter,
cut into small pieces and chill-
ed
For the cake:
2 cups unbleached all-purpose
flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 large or 3 small peaches,
peeled, pitted and cut into
1/4-inch-thick slices (about 2
cups)
1 cup raspberries, washed and
picked over
4 tablespoons unsalted butter,
softened
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup milk
1. Make the topping: Combine the
flour, brown sugar, granulated
sugar, cinnamon, and salt in a large
bowl. Add the butter and mix with
your fingers, pinching the butter
pieces, until the mixture looks like
coarse meal with some larger
crumbs. Place it in the freezer
while making the cake batter.
2. Make the cake: Preheat the
oven to 375 degrees. Spray a 9-
inch springform pan with nonstick
cooking spray. Whisk together the
flour, baking powder and salt in a
medium bowl. In another bowl, toss
the peaches and raspberries with
1/4 cup of the flour mixture.
3. Cream together the butter
and sugar in a large mixing bowl
with an electric mixer until light
and fluffy. Beat in the egg and
vanilla until smooth, scraping down
the sides of the bowl once or twice
as necessary. Add 1/3 of the re-
maining flour mixture until in-
corporated. Add 1/2 of the milk.
Repeat, alternating flour and milk
and ending with flour. Gently stir
the berries and peaches into the
batter.
4. Scrape the batter into the
prepared pan and smooth into an
even layer with a small metal
spatula. Squeeze the crumb mix-
ture through your fingertips and
onto the top of the cake, forming
small and large crumbs in an even
layer. Bake until a toothpick in-
serted into the center of the cake
comes out clean of batter (there
might be moisture clinging to it
from the fruit), 50 minutes to 1
hour.
Let cool completely in the pan
on a wire rack. Run a sharp paring
knife around the sides of the pan
to loosen the cake before releasing
the sides. Slice and serve. Makes 8
to 10 servings.

alad is perfect when
its just too darned
hot to cook. Garden-fresh
greens topped with vege-
tables and a glass of crisp,
fruity white wine answer
the call for dinner.
For inspiration, you need
only check out area farmers
markets. From crunchy ro-
maine to tender Bibb and pep-
pery arugula, the offerings are
hard to resist. And we know
that veggies and leafy greens
the darker the leaf, the better
are good for us because they
are nutrient-rich.
In addition to grilled or raw
vegetables, you can add grilled
meats or seafood even a
fried egg to a salad.
Figure about 2 cups of loosely
packed greens per serving.
After youve washed the greens,
pat them dry or give them a
whirl in the salad spinner. Once
washed, salad greens will keep
several days in the vegetable
crisper.
Recently, I was inspired by
the ideas in Tasha De Serios
aptly titled Salad for Dinner:
Simple Recipes for Salads That
Make a Meal (Taunton,
$19.95). The book covers all
types of salads, from ones with
greens to vegetable and fruit
salads and those with grains,
beans and pasta.
Leafy greens are the quintes-
sential staple in salads, and
they add flavor, texture and
color, De Serio writes. She
recommends pairing tender
greens with other tender
greens and hearty ones with
their hearty cousins.
Throughout the book, there
are tips and suggestions for
ways to add substance to
salads. And if the yummy-
sounding recipes dont inspire
you, the many beautiful color
photos will.
PEPPER AND GREEN BEAN
SALAD WITH FRIED
ALMONDS
Serves: 4 to 6 (main-dish salads)
Preparation time: 15 minutes
Total time: 40 minutes
Add rolled or folded thin slices of
prosciutto and hard-cooked
egg quarters to this salad if
desired.
Kosher salt
3/4 pound thin green beans,
stem ends trimmed
1 clove garlic, crushed
21/2 tablespoons sherry or
red-wine vinegar, or more as
needed
1/2 cup plus 1 1/2 tablespoons
olive oil
1 small red onion, thinly sliced
3/4 cup blanched slivered al-
monds
3/4 pound sweet red or orange
peppers, halved, cored, seeded
and thinly sliced
1/4 cup roughly chopped flat-leaf
parsley
1/4 cup roughly chopped fresh
marjoram
Fresh ground black pepper
4 large handfuls frisee (pale
center leaves) washed and
dried, or favorite salad greens
Bring a pot of water to boil and
season generously with salt.
Have a baking sheet lined with
parchment ready. Add the beans
to the boiling water and cook until
crisp-tender, about 2 minutes.
Drain the beans, spread them on
the baking sheet and set aside to
cool.
Meanwhile, make the vinai-
grette. In a small bowl, combine
the garlic and vinegar; let sit for 5
to 10 minutes. Then whisk in 1/2
cup olive oil. Using a green bean,
taste the vinaigrette and adjust
with more vinegar or salt if neces-
sary. Set aside.
Put the red onion in a small
bowl and cover with ice water to
crisp and remove some of its
hotness. Set aside.
Warm a small saute pan over
medium heat and add the remain-
ing 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil and
the slivered almonds. Fry the
almonds, tossing or stirring fre-
quently, until golden brown, about
3 minutes. Transfer to a paper
towel-lined plate and season with
salt.
Drain the onion well.
Put the green beans, onion,
peppers and herbs in a large bowl;
season with salt and pepper. Gent-
ly but thoroughly toss the salad
with just enough vinaigrette (you
might not use it all) to lightly coat
the vegetables. Taste and add
more salt or vinegar if necessary.
Add the frisee and almonds to the
bowl, seasoning lightly with salt,
and toss again, adding just enough
vinaigrette to lightly coat. Taste
once more for salt and acid. Trans-
fer the salad to a platter or indi-
vidual serving plates.

O N T H E W E B
Dear Abby: I am
a confused trans-
woman. I have been
in a committed re-
lationship for years
with a woman who
knew me before the
change. I have lied
to myself for a long time about what
gender I have been attracted to, and
now its coming back to haunt me.
As I have gone through several
years changing, my confidence and
emotional depth have grown. I suc-
cessfully transitioned two years ago,
and live and work as a woman. This
means when I go to clubs and bars
with other girlfriends, I attract male
attention in a positive way.
The problem is, my attraction to
women is fading and men are now
much more appealing. My pulse races
at the idea of spending time in the
company of men, but no longer with
women, who are now more like sis-
ters than anything else.
My relationship with my current
female spouse has become that of a
housemate or female family mem-
ber. She was there for me during my
changes, and now I feel I am evolving
away from her. This upsets me, and I
know it upsets her because we have
talked about the possibility that this
might occur. Now Im worried about
breaking her heart, but feel if I dont
move on, I will have cheated myself.
What should I do? Should I swal-
low my feelings and stay with her, or
admit that in order to feel like a het-
erosexual woman I must leave and be
in a relationship with a man? Help!
Lost Angel
Dear Lost: I discussed your letter
with Denise Leclair, the executive
director of the International Founda-
tion for Gender Education (IFGE),
who tells me that what youre expe-
riencing is not unusual. Transgender
people can be so consumed with gen-
der issues that they are sometimes
unfocused on whom they are really
attracted to.
While I cant make this decision for
you, you can get some helpful input
from IFGE. Founded in 1987, it offers
support and educational services for
and about gender-variant persons
including referrals to medical and
psychological professionals. You can
email IFGE at info@ifge.org.
Dear Abby: Thanks for the wonderful
letters and sage advice over the years.
I cant tell you how many columns I
have clipped and shared.
Some years ago when I was teach-
ing in Massachusetts, a dear friend,
Pat, told me about something she
did that impressed me. Every year on
her birthday, she sent flowers to her
parents with a note thanking them
for their love and support. I adopted
her idea.
We have a Mothers Day and a Fa-
thers Day, but isnt Pats idea wonder-
ful? Many parents would be thrilled
to receive flowers from their child on
his or her birthday, especially when a
note accompanies the bouquet. After
all, the parents gave the children life
and nurturing. It seems only right
that children should show their ap-
preciation at that special time. Please
share this idea with your readers.
Former Teacher in Athens, Ga.
Dear Teacher: Thank you for shar-
ing your friends tradition. Its not
the first time Ive heard this, but Im
pleased to share her terrific idea with
those who are receptive.
DEAR ABBY
A D V I C E
Transgender woman must now deal with a new, unforeseen change
To receive a collection of Abbys most memo-
rable and most frequently requested po-
ems and essays, send a business-sized, self-
addressed envelope, plus check or money
order for $3.95 ($4.50 in Canada) to: Dear
Abbys Keepers, P.O. Box 447, Mount Mor-
ris, IL 61054-0447. (Postage is included.)
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Your
best self is seldom born of a per-
fectly comfortable environment.
The ideal circumstance may be
ideal precisely because rising
above it is required.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). The
magic of lowered expectations
will play a part in todays action.
If you feel that you are on a
path to nowhere, anything that
comes of the journey seems like
a bonus.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You
wouldnt dare brag about your
latest exploits, but if you dont
tell people what youve been
up to, youll miss out on future
opportunities. Youll be power-
fully modest as you express the
truth about what you do.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
Your life force surges into and
through everything you pick up
today. Your results shape up in
a way that is uniquely you. You
can and will keep going until you
get to the end of the goal.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Fear keeps
you alert better than coffee can.
It also plays with your sense of
time. Your performance will get
a lift because you channel your
fear well.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Youll
confide in people and let them in
on your secrets. A small rework-
ing of the way you talk about
yourself and your business will
make a huge difference.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Dont
wait for the universe to sign your
permission slip to go on the field
trip of your dreams. The only
kind of permission necessary
for this one is the kind you can
grant yourself.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
Extremes wont be necessary.
Everything comes together
because you did a little more of
what you wanted to do and a
little less of what you didnt want
to do.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
Shoes are both functional and
symbolic. In light of the meaning
and influence that symbols have,
might your life be revolutionized
by a new pair of shoes? The jury
is still out on that one.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
People who claim to have bal-
ance have a very different defini-
tion of it from yours. Once you
figure out that balance is a myth,
you can stop all that stressful
striving for it.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Your
whole goal is to make other peo-
ples lives easier. Youll be con-
siderate and follow instructions,
which makes others feel com-
fortable and safe around you.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Think
about what you really want so
that you can better communi-
cate it to others. The relation-
ships in your life will test you.
To pass the test, you have to be
specific and clear.
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (Aug. 29).
Who you are is always changing.
Youre willing to define yourself
differently, and youll like how
this moves you to your next
evolution. In September, you will
change your thinking in regards
to money, and your reality will
obediently follow. Investments
pay in November and May.
Cancer and Capricorn people
adore you. Your lucky numbers
are: 5, 25, 49, 3 and 17.
