Developers would have access to the submitted demolition bids, with the option to handle the tear-down and pay less for the cleared land or to offer a higher purchase price without taking on the responsibility of demolition, officials say. The property’s nonprofit owner, CityVest, has contended viable developers were scared away by the condition of the former hotel and past mandates to preserve it. The proposals will provide the first tangible
Officials have come up with a plan that may advance the Hotel Sterling demolition, though no additional government funding has surfaced to date. Demolition bids will be sought to firm up the cost to tear down the deteriorating Wilkes-Barre structure. A second set of proposals will be obtained from developers interested in purchasing the lot so government officials will have concrete information on potential reuses, job creation and private investment at the site.

A somber sendoff
By EILEEN GODIN Times Leader Correspondent
A somber mood settled over Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia on Friday as Lt. Gen. John J. Yeosock, a Luzerne County native and highly decorated U.S. Army veteran, was laid to rest with full military honors. Michael Yeosock of Plains Township, Lt. Gen. Yeosock’s brother, and his family joined with Lt. Gen. Yeosock’s, wife, Betta, formerly of Clark Summit, and their children, John and Beth, and their families to honor a man who was a role model and national hero. In military style, the man who served his country for 33 years and attained the rank of a three-star general was remembered tenderly. Michael said Betta, John and Beth each took the podium to recall the man who
made such a difference in so many lives, at home and globally. Attending the chapel service was Gen. Martin E. Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and retired Gen. Eric K. Yeosock Shinseki, former Joint Chiefs of Staff, and now secretary of Veterans Affairs. Reflecting on the man behind the uniform, the military band played two of Lt. Gen. Yeosock’s favorite songs, “Amazing Grace,” and “America the Beautiful,” Michael said. Following services in Fort Myer Memorial Chapel, Michael said a caisson, pulled by six white horses, carried the lieutenant general’s casket to its final resting area off
Gen. Patton Drive. A black horse was used as the caparison horse, a horse with no rider, with riding boots set backwards in the stirrups, symbolizing a fallen leader gazing back at his troops. This honor is given only to an officer who attained the rank of a colonel or above. Yeosock received a 15-cannon salute followed by three rounds of rifles, Michael said. “The ceremony was very deserving,” Michael said. Yeosock began his military career in 1959. He served with an infantry unit during the Vietnam War and was a project manager for the Saudi Arabian National Guard Modernization Program, helping to conSee YEOSOCK, Page 12A

Man charged with threats in W-B law office Joseph Giordano said he would return with a firearm, police say.
By EDWARD LEWIS elewis@timesleader.com
WILKES-BARRE – City police arrested a man they allege threatened to kill people inside the Anzalone Law Office on Thursday. Employees told police Joseph Giordano, 45, entered the building at South Franklin and West Northampton streets and threatened to blow heads off at about 11:15 a.m.
Giordano was arrested behind the building. He was arraigned by District Judge Martin Kane in WilkesGiordano Barre on charges of terroristic threats, defiant trespass and disorderly conduct, and jailed at the Luzerne County Correctional Facility for lack of $20,000 bail. “Our office has represented Mr. Giordano in a personal injury case,” attorney William Anzalone said Friday. “He received serious injuries when he was
struck crossing the street by a hit and run driver. We ended up resolving the case for the maximum insurance coverage that the driver had. “Unfortunately, Mr. Giordano does have mental illness and this event that occurred yesterday was an unfortunate occurrence, unexplainable and we’re hoping that he gets into the mental health court system and gets the treatment that he needs,” Anzalone said. Giordano suffered severe head injuries when he was struck by a vehicle, driven by Morris Capute, at South Main Street and Wilkes-Barre Boulevard on Nov.
4, according to court records. Court records say Capute pleaded guilty to accidents involving death or injury and driving with a suspended license. He is scheduled to be sentenced June 15. According to the criminal complaint filed on Thursday: A receptionist at the law office told police Giordano walked into the building through a rear entrance and began shouting at her. The receptionist called for another employee for help. Giordano was told to leave the building. He took a fighting stance and charged at an employee shaking his fist, the crim-
inal complaint says. Police said in the criminal complaint that Giordano pointed at the receptionist and the other employee saying twice, “I’m going to blow your (expletive) head off. Make no mistake I will be back.” Giordano walked out and told two employees that he was going to return with a firearm. He allegedly raised his hands and made a hand gesture in a shape of a gun, the criminal complaint says. A preliminary hearing for Giordano is scheduled on June 14 in Wilkes-Barre Central Court.

A legislative committee approves a revised version of state senatorial districts.
By MARC LEVY Associated Press
HARRISBURG— A Democratic state senator will absorb a huge swath of bedrock Republican territory north of Pittsburgh while the city of Harrisburg will remain in its current Senate district under a revised GOP-sponsored plan that a five-member panel approved Friday. However, Senate Minority Leader Jay Costa, D-Allegheny, bitterly criticized the plan approved by the Legislative Reapportionment Commission, and did not rule out another state Supreme Court challenge like the ones that brought down the first Republican-drawn map in January. “I’m very disappointed,” Costa said. “I mean, this process has been going on for almost a year and-a-half and we actually are where we started from.” Chief among his complaints
were the changes that will bring a significant Republican makeup to the 38th District seat held by Democrat Jim Ferlo of Pittsburgh. Costa also complained that the plan drawn by Senate Majority Leader Dominic Pileggi, R-Delaware, split 10 counties strictly to help sitting Republican senators improve their electoral chances. Pileggi insisted the plan squarely responds to the Supreme Court’s complaints — for instance, that three particular Senate districts had been given unusual and unwieldy shapes — and that his plan includes splits in Philadelphia and Pittsburgh that Costa had specifically requested. Meanwhile, it reduces the overall number of county splits to 53 from 79 in the current districts and 67 in the plan struck down by the court, Pileggi’s office said. The panel is handling the once-a-decade task of redrawing the boundaries of Pennsylvania’s legislative districts to address population shifts identified by the census. It includes Pileggi,
Nanticoke police Chief Cheshinski dies By JERRY LYNOTT jlynott@timesleader.com

The mayor especially appreciated Cheshinski’s candor. “He pulled no punches with me,” said Dougherty. Dougherty expressed his condolences to the Cheshinski family, saying, “I wish the best to his family. They’re just wonderful people, his entire family.”
W-B man is acquitted of rape Luis Suarez Perez was found guilty of terroristic threats and simple assault. By SHEENA DELAZIO sdelazio@timesleader.com
WILKES-BARRE – A city man was acquitted Friday of the most serious charges relating to the alleged rape of a woman. Luis Suarez Perez, 30, of Grant Street, was found not guilty of two counts of rape, two counts of aggravated assault and one count each of burglary and reckless endangerment after a Luzerne County jury deliberated for three hours. The jury found Perez guilty of terroristic threats and simple assault. The trial lasted three days. Judge Tina Polachek Gartley said Perez will be sentenced on the two charges on July 24. The judge reduced Perez’s bail
to $5,000 unsecured, and released him from the county prison, pending any other detainers Perez Polachek Gartley said Perez must stay in Luzerne County and is to have no contact with the victim. Assistant District Attorney Jenny Roberts prosecuted the case. Perez was represented by attorney Mark Singer. According to court papers, on April 4, 2011, the woman claimed Perez grabbed her hair and slammed her head against the floor several times, before holding a knife to her neck and sexually assaulting her twice. The woman has testified she dated Perez for several years and ended the relationship in March, when she found out he was see-

Costa, the House Democratic and Republican floor leaders and a senior Superior Court judge, Stephen McEwen, who was appointed by the Republican-tilting Supreme Court. Amanda Holt, an Allentownarea piano teacher whose alternative homemade maps helped persuade the high court to throw out the previous set of maps, questioned the rationale for the splits in Pittsburgh and Philadelphia and Senate districts that, she said, don’t appear to be contiguous. “It doesn’t seem like our constitution is really being put first in this process,” she said after the panel’s vote. A House plan that moves five seats and reduces the number of municipal splits was uncontested. The pair of maps were approved, 4-1, with Costa casting the lone “no” vote. The plans will take effect with the 2014 elections. The redrawing process began last year and was supposed to produce new districts to take effect with this year’s elections.

ing another woman. When he moved out, she said she took her house key away from Perez. According to court papers, the woman was working in a thirdfloor room when she heard her dog running, and the front door slam shut. She walked to the stairs and saw Perez walking up holding a knife. She alleged Perez held the knife to her neck when he raped her the first time. “He kept saying, S `hut up, shut up,’ or he was going to stick the knife in my eye,” she said at a preliminary hearing. Police said the woman had told them Perez went through her cell phone looking for information about her new boyfriend, and sat on her chest holding the knife to her neck. She claimed Perez raped her a second time after threatening to cut her with the knife.

Vet unit to be converted
he Gino J. Merli Veterans Center in Scranton will convert its 16T bed personal care unit to a 16-bed
skilled nursing care unit next month. Brig. Gen. Mike Gould, deputy adjutant general for veterans’ affairs, said the switch is based on a higher demand for skilled nursing care in the Scranton area. Several of the current personal care residents are eligible for admission into the skilled nursing care unit at GMVC. Other residents, according to their wishes, will be offered a transfer to a personal care unit at one of the other state veterans’ homes or an appropriate facility in the local area. Staff levels will remain the same. The Merli Center, opened in 1994, currently provides 200 beds, including 160 for skilled nursing care, 24 for dementia care and 16 for personal care. The major difference in the types of residency is the level of care required.

The state Department of Environmental Protection has launched a natural gas vehicle website and plan to help municipal and commercial fleet owners make informed decisions about converting their fleets to compressed natural gas and liquefied natural gas, in advance of a related grant program. Act 13 of 2012 authorizes DEP to develop and implement a natural gas energy development program to distribute up to $20 million in grants over three years for the incremental purchase and conversion of natural gas fleet vehicles. The new website can be accessed by clicking the Natural Gas Vehicle Grant Program link on DEP’s homepage, www.dep.state.pa.us. It offers information on the natural gas energy development program as well as existing NGV fueling tools and resources, including cost-savings calculators, fueling maps and technical assistance sites. Those interested are also encouraged to register on the website to be notified of workshop dates, the opening of the initial grant round and other outreach opportunities. SCRANTON

SCRANTON – Congress has kicked the National Flood Insurance Program down the road too many times, U.S. Sen. Bob Casey said Friday. The program, a wing of the Federal Emergency Management Agency that provides government-backed insurance in flood-prone areas, has been extended 12 times in four years, Casey said, and has not received a full-scale reauthorization since 2004. Speaking atop a levee on the Lackawanna River in Casey his hometown of Scranton, Casey called on Congress to reauthorize the program for five years. “This series of floods that hit this region really broke the spirits of a lot of people,” Casey said. “…The least that we can do is to give them some peace of mind is to reauthorize a program that works, a program that’s needed for families to recover and communities to recover, and a program that Congress should put in place for five years, not just for two months or three months.” Congress last extended the program in May for two-months. It will expire again within two months without Congressional action. Casey said Congress will likely take up the issue again in two weeks, after debate on the farm bill concludes. A lapse in program authorization, as last occurred in October, will prevent homeowners from buying new policies, renewing policies or modifying existing policies to add coverage. For that reason, it could also jeopardize home sales where a mortgage lender requires flood protection. Casey said a long-term extension would give residents in flood-prone areas peace of mind. “They ought to have the right to expect that they can rely upon a program for five years at least, and they don’t have to keep worrying about short-term extensions,” Casey said. The program insured nearly 9,000 homes and businesses in Luzerne County prior to the September flooding. Scranton Flood Protection Coordinator Paul O’Hora added that more than 500 Scranton property owners have federal flood insurance. “We’re very anxious to have that continue,” O’Hora said. The debate around extension has centered on funding. The previously solvent program was overrun with claims following hurricanes Katrina and Rita in 2005. It now owes nearly $18 billion to the U.S. Treasury. Casey said he supports reforms that will make the program more efficient, but will not risk the security of flood zone residents in the meantime. “I’m all for reform, but not so that it puts at risk the program going forward and giving people that confidence and protection,” Casey said.
A $39.1 billion Homeland Security Appropriations bill approved Thursday included an amendment by U.S. Rep. Lou Barletta to withhold funds from municipalities defying enforcement of federal immigration law. Barletta, R-Hazleton, who made illegal immigration an issue while he was Hazleton mayor, said the amendment was needed to put pressure on towns and cities to uphold the law on the books since 1996. “It’s the only way to force
municipalities who are defying to enforce federal law,” Barletta said Friday. The releBarletta vant Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act prohibits a local government entity or official from restricting the exchange of information about the citizenship or immigration status of a person with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. The law received bi-partisan support in Congress and was signed into law in 1996. Some major cities like Philadelphia, New York and San Francisco have declared
themselves sanctuary cities, saying “they will not share or ask anyone’s immigration status and that includes even if they are a criminal,” Barletta said. Yet the cities still receive millions in federal funds, he added. Barletta bristled when recalling the fight against him as mayor when Hazleton passed Illegal Immigration Relief Act in 2006. The ordinance made it illegal for landlords to knowingly rent to illegal immigrants and for employers to hire them. “My city was sued for trying to enforce federal law,” he said. The city held off implementing the ordinance as it See BARLETTA, Page 12A

WASHINGTON — Europe’s economic crisis could send shock waves roaring across the Atlantic that would drag down the fragile U.S. economy and threaten President Barack Obama’s hopes for a second term. The president demonstrated Friday just how deeply he’s worried about that — and how little he can do to prevent it. Obama used an impromptu news conference to prod European leaders to quickly and vigorously deal with their crisis. Along with that rare cross-Atlan-
tic jawboning, he accused congressional Republicans at home of holding back a U.S. rebound. The president held forth, unprompted, on what European leaders could and should do to fix their economic woes, though he insisted he was not “scolding them or telling them what to do.” He never mentioned his election opponent, Republican Mitt Romney. But the campaign seemed to be an important factor in the day’s events. Powerless to take on the economic mess overseas by himself, Obama tried to show Americans he was nonetheless engaged in trying to help by offering ideas and advice. At the same time, he was sending a message to his European peers to be resolute and move firmly. “Now, the good news is there is a

path out of this challenge,” Obama said. “These decisions are fundamentally in the hands of Europe’s leaders, and, fortunately, they understand the seriousness of the situation and the urgent need to act.”
Demonstrating his limited direct influence in Europe at the same time he’s being thwarted at home by Republicans on his domestic agenda could reinforce a sense of presidential powerlessness — not an image an incumbent seeking re-election wants to project. But Obama tried to tie the two issues together to his advantage. Along with a specific recommendation that Europe inject much-needed money into its banking system, he said European leaders must focus on economic growth and job creation, not just “cutting and cutting and cutting” spending to deal with debt problems. That’s the same point he’s trying to make to Congress — and to voters — back home. Many European countries have already slipped back into recession.

Hells Angels raids nab 20
ederal authorities and police in North and South Carolina have F arrested 20 alleged members of the
Hells Angels motorcycle gang on drug, weapons and money-laundering charges. The 16 men and four women, allegedly members of a Hells Angels affiliate called the Rock Hell City Nomads based in York County, S.C., sold drugs, ran prostitution rings and committed arsons, according to authorities. They also sold weapons they knew would be used in crimes, U.S. Attorney Bill Nettles in Columbia, S.C., said in a statement. Nettles said the gang members promoted "a climate of fear through intimidation, violence and threats of violence." Authorities said the arrests and indictment culminated a two-year investigation into the gang’s activities, centered in South Carolina, with a few members from North Carolina. ATLANTA
Officials probe E. coli cases
A mysterious and scattered outbreak of the E. coli bacteria is linked to 14 illnesses and one death, health officials say. No form of contaminated food or other cause has been identified in the illnesses, which occurred in April and May, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Three people were hospitalized. One — a child in the New Orleans area — died last week. The reported illnesses were spread across six states. Georgia had five cases, Louisiana four, Alabama two, and Tennessee, Florida and California each had one. E. coli is a large family of bacteria and most strains are harmless. MANAMA, BAHRAIN
Police battle protesters
Riot police in Bahrain fired tear gas and stun grenades Friday as tens of thousands of protesters staged the biggest anti-government demonstrations in weeks in the divided Gulf nation. Opposition groups called for major rallies after a prominent rights activist, Nabeel Rajab, was placed back in detention earlier this week on fresh charges linked to his social media posts. Bahrain has experienced near daily protests for 16 months caused by an uprising by the kingdom’s Shiite majority seeking greater political rights from the Western-backed Sunni monarchy. VATICAN CITY
Vatican protests seizure
The Vatican chastised Italian authorities on Friday for seizing documents intended for the pope during a raid on the home of the recently ousted Vatican bank chief, reminding them that the Holy See is a sovereign state whose officials and documents enjoy immunity protections. In a statement, the Vatican said it expected that Italian judicial authorities would recognize and respect its internationally recognized sovereign status in any proceedings concerning Ettore Gotti Tedeschi. Italian paramilitary police raided Gotti Tedeschi’s Piacenza home on Tuesday.

BEIRUT — Explosions echoed over Damascus on Friday as Syrian troops clashed with rebels in some of the heaviest fighting yet in the capital in the 15-month uprising against President Bashar Assad. Troops also unleashed a heavy assault to retake a rebel-held neighborhood in a central flashpoint city, blasting it with heavy bombardment. Also Friday, U.N. observers entered a remote farming area where a massacre was reported
this week, an activist said, a day after they were blocked from reaching it by troops and local residents and fired upon. The fighting in Damascus erupted in the restive district of Kfar Souseh, where the night before, armed rebels took part in a large anti-government rally in the same district, witnesses said — a rare and bold public appearance by the fighters in the capital. Friday’s fighting began when the fighters attacked a government checkpoint in the morning, according to Rami AbdulRahman, of the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights. A witness who spoke on condition of anonymity for security concerns said explosions could be heard throughout cen-

tral Damascus and that smoke could be seen rising from the area. The Observatory and another
activist group, the Local Coordination Committees, said clashes also broke out in three nearby districts in the capital. There
was no immediate word on civilian casualties but the LCC said three rebels were killed. In the central city of Homs, one of the main battlegrounds of the uprising, regime troops were trying to advance into the opposition-held district of Khaldiyeh from three sides, battling with armed rebels trying to stop them, said Tarek Badrakhan, an activist based in the neighborhood speaking via Skype. “This is the worst shelling we’ve had since the start of the revolution,” he said. A shell could be heard exploding in the background as he spoke. Shells were hitting the neighborhood at a rate of five to 10 a minute, said the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.
Flashlight bombs terrorize Phoenix U.S. general offers his regrets
for Afghanistan civilian deaths
By AMANDA LEE MYERS Associated Press
PHOENIX — Flick the switch on these flashlights and they don’t light up. They blow up. Three of these bombs have exploded within the last month in the Phoenix area, causing minor injuries to five people and raising fears of more serious ones. Police still have no idea who is behind them and have taken the unusual step of putting up 22 billboards across the sprawling metro area to warn residents about discarded flashlights. “The nature of the bombings are so random,” said Tom Mangan, a special agent at the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives in Phoenix. Mangan said the agency has ruled out any connection to terrorism because the targets have been random and there

have been no messages or demands. The ATF said the bombs appear to have been made by the same person or people because their design was identical. An explosive was placed inside the flashlights with a smaller battery and rigged so that turning it on would send
an electrical current that triggered the blast, Mangan said. He declined to identify the explosive material. The Salvation Army stopped accepting donations of flashlights. Since the explosion, employees have not seen any flashlights matching the yellow one seen on the billboards.
PATROL BASE PUL-IALAM, Afghanistan — The top commander of U.S. and NATO troops in Afghanistan offered a somber apology on Friday in an eastern province where officials say 18 civilians — half of them children — were killed in a coalition airstrike this week. U.S. Marine Gen. John Allen spent several hours with local Afghans to express his regrets about Wednesday’s pre-dawn raid to capture a Taliban operative in Baraki Barak district of Logar province. “We take these deaths very seriously and I grieve with their
families,” Allen told the provincial governor, an elderly man with a long, white beard and gray turban. “I have children of my own, and I feel the pain of this.” Hours after Allen’s visit, the U.S.-led coalition issued a statement saying that it had completed its initial assessment of the operation and confirmed that “in addition to the insurgents killed during the operation, it’s also responsible for the unintended, but nonetheless tragic, death of Afghan civilians.” Nighttime raids on militants taking cover in villages are a major irritant in Afghan President Hamid Karzai’s relationship with the international military coalition. Karzai says the raids put civilians at risk of injury or death. Military officials say such operations are key to capturing and killing Taliban leaders.

Man charged with cooking meth Jeffrey Deyo Sr. allegedly caused explosion inside Freeland home. By EDWARD LEWIS elewis@timesleader.com
FREELAND – A man charged last month with cooking methamphetamine inside a South WilkesBarre house allegedly caused an explosion on Christmas while making the homemade illegal drug inside a Freeland residence. Jeffrey Deyo Sr., 41, suffered burns to his hands when a fire erupted inside the house on Alvin Street when he spilled lamp fluid
on a lit candle, according to charges filed. Police said Deyo fled the burning house leaving his 14-year-old son inside an attic bedroom. A man who had evacuated with a woman and two other children ran back inside the burning, smoke-filled house to rescue the boy, police said. Deyo allegedly admitted to police in a jailhouse interview on May 23 that the fire broke out while he was cooking methamphetamine in a second floor bedroom. District Judge Gerald Feissner in Freeland on Friday arraigned Deyo on charges of operating a
in making meth at the Church Street house. “I’ve been having a pretty tough time,” Deyo said at Friday’s arraignment. According to the criminal complaint filed by Freeland police: A woman and her boyfriend were watching television while her two daughters, 7 and 8, were in a bedroom. The woman claimed she heard a loud explosion and believed it was Deyo “rough housing” with his son. The woman walked upstairs to check on her children when Deyo ran out of a bedroom with his hands and legs on fire. Deyo ran out of the house as the house filled
methamphetamine lab, causing a catastrophe, reckless endangerment and endangering the welfare of children. He was remanded to the Luzerne County Correctional Facility for lack of $50,000 bail. Deyo has been jailed at the county correctional facility since his arrest by Wilkes-Barre police and the state Office of Attorney General’s Bureau of Narcotics Investigation on May 22, when a suspected working methamphetamine lab was found inside his house at 80 Church St., according to court records. His son, Jeffrey Deyo Jr., 18, also was charged for his alleged role

Jerry Sandusky’s attorney had requested to have child sex abuse charges dropped. By MARK SCOLFORO Associated Press
BELLEFONTE — The judge overseeing Jerry Sandusky’s child sex abuse case on Friday denied the defense’s request to have the charges dismissed, leaving all 52 counts intact with opening statements three days away. Judge John Cleland’s three-paragraph order didn’t explain why he turned down a set of defense motions. Sandusky’s attorney had asked for all charges to be thrown out or at least for Cleland to conduct a hearing to see if some charges were supported by sufficient facts. Sandusky, 68, a retired assistant Penn State football coach, is accused of sexually abusing 10 boys over a 15-year span, allegations he has consistently denied. It was a severe blow to the defense, which argued that some charges relied on impermissible hearsay, others didn’t allege actual crimes and some were too vague to be able to effectively defend. The defense efforts to dismiss may return once the prosecution has put on its case. Defense attorney Karl Rominger and a spokesman for the attorney general’s office both declined to comment. A jury of 16, including four alternates, was seated this week, and a majority disclosed ties to Penn State. The trial inside a rural central Pennsylvania courthouse near the Penn State campus is expected to last several weeks. Sandusky’s arrest in November rocked the sports world as a grand jury returned a report accusing him of grooming, then sexually assaulting, boys through a charity he founded. The grand jury found that some of the abuse happened at Penn State’s football facilities.
COURT BRIEFS WILKES-BARRE – A city man charged with burglarizing a Laundromat nearly six years ago was convicted Thursday of three related charges. Matthew Barnes, 38, with a last known address of Monroe Street, was found guilty of charges of burglary, theft by unlawful taking and criminal mischief after a two-day jury trial. Judge David Lupas said Barnes, who was jailed after the verdict late Thursday, will be sentenced on July 26. He faces a five to 10 years in prison on the burglary charge. Prosecutors withdrew five additional charges of criminal mischief before the trial began. According to court papers, the day after Christmas in 2006, police responded to Penn Ave. Services Laundromat on South Pennsylvania Avenue in Wilkes-Barre for the report of a burglary.
Legendary head football coach Joe Paterno was fired just days after Sandusky was charged along with two Penn Cleland State administrators, who were accused of perjury and failing to report suspected abuse. Penn State trustees have said Paterno should have done more after an assistant told him of an encounter between Sandusky and a boy inside a team shower. Paterno’s abrupt dismissal touched off riots in the town of State College, an area often referred to as Happy Valley. Key prosecution witnesses expected to testify include many of the accusers and Mike McQueary, the then-graduate assistant who has said he saw Sandusky and a boy naked in a team shower in 2001. McQueary has testified that it appeared to him that Sandusky was sexually assaulting the child. Paterno, who died of lung cancer less than three months after his firing, passed the McQueary report on to his boss, athletic director Tim Curley. Curley and former vice president Gary Schultz were charged with perjury and failing to report suspected child abuse in connection with McQueary’s report. They are awaiting trial and maintain their innocence. The grand jury’s reports — a second was issued with additional charges in December — said Sandusky had frequent illicit contact with boys he met through his charity, The Second Mile, in the mid-1990s through 2008, when an allegation of abuse at a local high school where Sandusky volunteered as a coach prompted an investigation that produced the 52 charges. In interviews following his arrest, Sandusky acknowledged showering with young boys and embracing them naked, but he denied sexually abusing them. Police said a door was smashed and a soap dispenser and several game machines were damaged, with approximately $100 in coins being removed. A surveillance video of the alleged burglary shows a male, later identified as Barnes, wearing a baseball cap, blue jersey, black jacket and pants, tan work boots smashing the door and entering the business. WILKES-BARRE – A city man charged with sexually assaulting a pregnant woman was convicted after a trial before a Luzerne County judge.

PHILADELPHIA — Lawyers for the Miss Universe Organization have filed an arbitration action that seeks monetary damages from a former contestant who claims this year’s Miss USA pageant was a sham, officials said Friday. The organization filed the action with a private dispute resolution entity over the former Miss Pennsylvania USA’s claim that another contestant spotted the list of finalists on a planning sheet hours before the event was held Sunday, outside counsel Scott Balber said. A statement from the New York-based Miss Universe Organization said it is seeking remedies including monetary damages for her “ongoing defamatory statements.” Balber would not say how much money organizers are seeking. The pageant also released a statement from Miss Florida USA — the contestant Sheena Monnin claims saw the list — in which she disputes Miss Pennsylvania’s version account of the events that prompted her to step down. Monnin gave up her crown Monday, claiming in a Facebook post that the pageant had been rigged, with the top five finishers selected before the show was broadcast Sunday night from Las Vegas. Pageant organizers immediately denied Monnin’s allegation and claimed she had actually stepped down because she disagreed with the pageant’s decision to allow transgender contestants. Earlier Friday, Monnin told NBC’s “Today” show that she was standing by her claim that Miss Florida USA confided in her that she’d seen a list of finalists Sunday morning. “I know what I heard, and I know what I in turn witnessed come true based on what the contestant said she saw,” Monnin said. case. Akbarr elected to have Pierantoni hear his case rather than a jury. Pierantoni said Akbarr will be sentenced on Sept. 5 and that he will undergo an evaluation by the state Sexual Offenders Assessment Board. Pierantoni found Akbarr not guilty of an additional charge of theft by unlawful taking. According to court papers, a woman, who was eight months pregnant, reported to police that on June 5, 2011, that Akbarr was at her home and asked her what she was naming her baby. Akbarr asked to speak with the woman privately, and the two went to an upstairs bedroom. Police say that’s where Akbarr forced the woman to lie down and performed oral sex on her.

HARRISBURG — A plan to privatize Pennsylvania’s statecontrolled liquor store system and liberalize beer sales laws is being scheduled for a vote early next week. A spokesman for the House of Representatives’ Republican floor leader said Friday the plan would shut down the existing 620-store system and sell or auction 1,600 new licenses for wine and liquor stores. House Majority Leader Mike Turzai’s plan would give the state’s retail beer distributors the right to buy a license. Others would be auctioned, and it would limit the number of stores one licensee could own. It also would change beer sales laws to allow distributors, grocery stores and taverns to sell in wider varieties, from six-packs to cases of 24 bottles or cans. An earlier plan of Turzai’s was defeated by a House committee. AP PHOTO

Monnin claimed Karina Brez named the top five contestants in the same order they were called during the broadcast. “That’s just too coincidental to not be true,” she said. But a statement released Friday by Brez disputes Monnin’s account, saying she did see made a joke about a list of contestants. “The list I saw didn’t even have the eventual winner on it,” the statement read. Pageant officials maintain the judging was done fairly and under the watchful eye of an auditor. A group of preliminary judges selects 15 top contestants before the telecast along with a 16th picked by fan vote. Those contestants are then whittled down by the telecast judges, who this year included celebrity chef Cat Cora and Arsenio
seph Halesey on Tuesday. Joseph Dunaj, 27, waived charges of aggravated assault, simple assault, burglary, criminal trespass, criminal mischief and harassment to Luzerne County Court. Township police allege Dunaj entered an apartment on Mark Drive, Marion Terrace, by smashing a window and stabbed Lisa Scoffone multiple times on March 6, according to the criminal complaint. Scoffone suffered injuries to her neck, head and face, police said. HAZLETON – City police withdrew a simple assault charge against Keman C. Jackson, 32, of Hazleton, at a preliminary hearing before District Judge Joseph Zola on Wednesday. Police accused Jackson after his girlfriend, Charica Bryant, claimed he struck her during an argument on May 30, according to the criminal complaint.
Hall. This year’s Miss USA winner was Olivia Culpo of Rhode Island. Monnin does not have a listed phone number and did not respond to Facebook messages seeking comment. Attorneys for the pageant said they forwarded her the arbitration action directly because they did not know whether she’d retained a lawyer. Balber said that the action filed with the private arbitration company is confidential under the terms of the contestant contract, but that Monnin could release it if she wished. Earlier this week, pageant organizers released the text of Monnin’s resignation email; it doesn’t specifically mention rigging, but does mention organizers’ decision to allow transgender contestants into the competition.
Incentives could include cleanup The Associated Press
HARRISBURG — Lawmakers briefed on Gov. Tom Corbett’s package of financial incentives for a planned petrochemical refinery in western Pennsylvania say it could also include the cost to clean up pollution from the zinc smelter that’s there now. That revelation by two state senators Friday is the latest on Corbett’s plans for the Shell Oil Co. facility. His administration has shared those plans sparingly with the public. Lawmakers say it’d be the biggest package of taxpayer-paid incentives in Pennsylvania’s history. Sen. John Blake, D-Archbald, says the plans revolve around a previously disclosed tax credit worth up to $1.7 billion over 25 years and a newly created taxfree zone for the site.
McAdoo men are sentenced in Palin case By RACHEL D’ORO Associated Press
ANCHORAGE, Alaska — Two Pennsylvania men convicted of harassing Sarah Palin’s Alaska lawyers have been sentenced to time served and five years’ probation, with Friday’s proceedings briefly halted after a short outburst in court by one of them. During his sentencing in U.S. District Court in Anchorage, 20year-old Shawn Christy said the judge’s order Friday that he live up to six months in a Pennsylvania community re-entry program was “ridiculous.” His 48-year-old father, Craig Christy, was ordered to perform community service. The Christys, of McAdoo, pleaded guilty in January to making harassing phone calls to Palin’s attorneys. Attorney John Tiemessen testified the men’s calls threatened Palin and attorneys. Shawn Christy was released and sent back to Pennsylvania last month after an evaluation report said he wasn’t a danger to the public. Assistant U.S. Attorney RettaRae Randall says Craig Christy has been at a federal Bureau of Prisons medical facility, where he received a psychiatric evaluation before being returned to Alaska. Assistant U.S. Attorney RettaRae Randall said Craig Christy has been at a federal Bureau of Prisons medical facility, where he received a psychiatric evaluation before being returned to Alaska. U.S. District Judge Timothy Burgess rejected binding plea deals in December that would have allowed the men to avoid jail time. Tiemessen testified earlier this year that many of the calls began last June, escalating in July and August. Besides being threatening, many were filled with profanity, he said.

A mirror, a pair of work gloves and a flashlight are the three items to take on the journey through life, Superintendent Raymond Bernardi told the 202 members of the class of 2012. The mirror is to reflect on themselves and their families. “Take a mental snapshot of people who surround you today,” he said. “Stop and cherish the people who support you.” The work gloves will serve as a reminder to always help others. “As you climb the ladder of success, reach down and give a helping hand to those less fortunate.” Bernardi recalled how the
students and the community came together to help each other during the flood last fall. The last item Bernardi told the graduates to take along was a flashlight, so they never lose sight of their goals. “Don’t be afraid of uncertainty and darkness,” he said. Taking an excerpt from Dr. Seuss’s poem, “Oh, the Places You’ll Go,” Bernardi said the message was especially poignant for the moment. “Today is your day, you’re off to great places,” he said. “You have brains in your head, and brains in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose.” Bernardi reminded the graduates that life is a great balancing act, as he offered his final wellwishes. “Tonight, goodbye,” he said. “Tomorrow, good luck and forever, God bless.”
Mars orbiter OK after detecting own problem Engineers are looking for a way to deal with the difficulty and resume normal operation. The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — A NASA spacecraft orbiting Mars is in safe mode after it detected a problem. The Mars Odyssey, which has been circling the red planet since 2001, noticed something odd with one of its gyro-
scope-like devices that helps control its orientation and entered standby mode as a precaution Thursday evening. It’s a common action for spacecraft to take when something unexpected occurs. In safe mode, Mars Odyssey ceases science activities but is in contact with Earth. “The spacecraft is safe, and information we’ve received from it indicates the problem is limited” to that one part, mission manager Chris Potts
of NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory said in a statement Friday. Engineers are troubleshooting the problem and drawing up a plan to resume normal operations before August when NASA’s newest rover, the one-ton Curiosity, was scheduled to land near the Martian equator to begin a two-year investigation. The longest-running Mars spacecraft, Mars Odyssey has gone into safe mode several
times in the decade it’s been in operation. Unlike previous instances, it didn’t have to reboot its computer this time because the issue was limited to the gyroscope-like device. Besides snapping pictures of the Martian surface, one of Mars Odyssey’s main jobs is to communicate with spacecraft on the ground. NASA planned to use Mars Odyssey and the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter to monitor Curiosity’s landing.

PBS Digital Studios video mashup celebrates “Garden of Your Mind.’’ By LYNN ELBER AP Television Writer
LOS ANGELES — Mister Rogers is making it a beautiful day in the neighborhood again. Fred Rogers, the late host of “Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood,” is featured in a PBS Digital Studios video mashup that celebrates the power of imagination. The piece posted online Friday turns clips from Rogers’ PBS show into a sweetly inspiring music video, “Garden of Your Mind.” “Did you ever grow anything in the garden of your mind? You can grow ideas in the garden of your mind,” Rogers says, his autotuned voice given a gentle backbeat. The salute to the treasured children’s TV host drew reaction from the public and celebrities, with Neil Patrick Harris calling it a “groovy” tribute in a Twitter posting, and Alyssa Milano tweeting that the mashup will “make you cry tears of joy.” AMANDA HRYCYNA/FOR THE TIMES LEADER

YATESVILLE – Proud Patriots honored their graduates Friday night at Pittston Area High School’s commencement ceremony. Loved ones packed the stands as 290 graduates, draped in red, white and blue regalia, sobbed, giggled and shuffled their way to their seats. Superintendent George Cosgrove began his address by turning to the graduates, offering them some realistic encouragement. "You’re going to make mistakes. You’re going to have failures," Cosgrove said. "The important thing is the decisions you make after those failures." He encouraged the graduates to perceive themselves as above average, despite circumstance. Cosgrove told them about General Dwight Eisenhower, who grew up poor and, though he was accepted into West Point Military Academy, graduated below average. "On June 6… he led the largest invasionary force in the history of the world." Because of his success, it meant the beginning of the end for Nazi Germany, Cos-
Rogers’ widow, Joanne, is among the video’s “biggest fans,” said Kevin Morrison, Rogers COO of the Fred Rogers Company. “It’s a very creative piece and we think it gives appropriate recognition to the fact that Fred was ahead of his time in so many ways,” Morrison said. The PBS Digital Studios’ video posted on YouTube and elsewhere is intended to get people talking about public television, and more such tribute mashups to PBS figures are planned, spokesman Kevin Dando said. The video also encourages those who like it to “please support your local PBS station.” PBS and its stations rely on viewer and corporate contributions. Rogers became familiar to generations of viewers as the soft-spoken, cardigan-wearing guide of “Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood,” which he filmed from 1968 to 2001 and continues to air in reruns. Rogers died in 2003 at age 74.

grove said. He also spoke of Benjamin Carter, the tempestuous Chicago native raised by a single mother. "He was called a dummy. He was taunted... and prone to anger." Cosgrove explained how that boy, at the persistence of his
thoughtful mother, grew to be the leading pediatric neurosurgeon at Johns Hopkins. Carter led the first team in separating conjoined twins. "Today, those twins are leading separate lives and much better lives," Cosgrove said. School board President Anthony Guariglia told his audi-
ence to expect change. "If I have learned anything, it is that change is inevitable." Guariglia said. "It is inevitable that structure, process and relationships will change. Remember always: what you do with that change will define who you are and how you are remembered."

Scranton rallies against Obamacare Event coincides with 223rd anniversary of Madison introducing Bill of Rights. By RICH HOWELLS rhowells@golackawanna.com
SCRANTON – Nearly 200 people gathered on the Linden Street side of Courthouse Square Friday at noon to join 155 other cities across the country for a rally to “Stand Up for Religious Freedom.” Coinciding with the 223rd anniversary of the day James Madison introduced the Bill of Rights to the first Congress, the rally’s main purpose was to protest the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, labeled “Obamacare” by critics. It will require all employer health care plans “to provide free contraceptives, sterilizations, and abortion-inducing drugs, regardless of any moral or religious objections,” according to literature by the Pro-Life Action League handed out at the rally by local organizer Mary Ann Haas of West Scranton. The U.S. Supreme Court is de-
liberating on the constitutionality of the act. “This is not a political rally. This is not a Catholic rally. This is not a contraception rally. This is for freedom of religion, that we can believe what we choose to believe. This doesn’t limit anyone. This doesn’t trample on anyone’s rights, and I think that the most perfect persons that I could think of are here today to express those feelings,” Haas said. Pagan High Priest Vincent Gaglione, who spoke at the first Scranton rally on March 23 and said he received a “really warm reception,” led “The Pledge of Allegiance” and opened the event with a speech asking all citizens to stand together despite their differences. “There are those that want to limit religious freedom, and this fight is about religious freedom, whether you’re Christian, Jewish, Hindu, Pagan, or even an atheist. All of us stand together to support the Constitution and the right to practice our religion, and I’ll stand with any religion to protect their rights as long as that religion does not infringe on anyone else’s

rights,” Gaglione said, adding that the turnout was larger at this rally than the last. The Rev. Jack Munley of Community Worship Bible Church in Scranton led the opening prayer and agreed that religious freedom is being “stripped away” by lawmakers in Washington. “We are at a crossroads in this
great country today. Our religious freedoms are being trampled and stripped away by those in Washington who don’t share those same religious freedoms and those freedoms that we do. The government needs to know that this great country was founded upon by JudeoChristian principles,” Munley said.
Nanticoke approves new three-year agreement with firefighters By STEVEN FONDO Times Leader Correspondent
NANTICOKE – City council voted unanimously on Wednesday to approve a new collective bargaining agreement between the city and the Local 2655 firefighters. Council Chairman Steve Duda said the new three-year agreement addresses wages only at a scale similar to the one ratified in 2009.
According to city Solicitor William Finnegan, the contract will be posted on Nanticoke’s website as soon as it is signed by all concerned parties. Council also announced the city had recently entered into an agreement with Geisinger Health System to purchase a vacant parcel on
Main Street adjacent to the Luzerne County Community College Health Sciences building. In other business, council announced that state Department of Agriculture farmers market nutrition vouchers will be available on Monday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Luzerne County Community Col-
lege. County residents over 60 years old who meet certain income requirements can qualify for four $5 vouchers good for food purchases at local farmers markets. Questions about the program should be directed to the Rose Tucker Senior Center at 735-1670.

Exeter man will be able to attend his brother’s graduation WILKES-BARRE – An Exeter man who admitted to taking more than $10,000 worth of items from a neighbor’s home will be permitted to attend his brother’s high school graduation before beginning to serve an 11 to 22 month prison sentence handed down to him on Friday. Tyler Joseph Kirby, 19, of Chicory Court, Exeter, was sentenced by county Judge Tina Polachek Gartley on charges of burglary and receiving stolen property. Kirby pleaded guilty to the charges in April. Polachek Gartley said Kirby may attend his brother’s high
POLICE BLOTTER WILKES-BARRE – A city man was picked up on an arrest warrant overnight Thursday and arraigned Friday in Wilkes-Barre Central Court on drunken driving charges filed by Bloomsburg police in April. Andrew Patrick Yankovich, 21, of North Walnut Street, was charged with three counts of driving under the influence, and one count each of driving with a suspended license, accidents involving damage to property, underage drinking and careless driving. Bloomsburg police allege Yankovich crashed a 2000 Jeep into a tree in the 900 block of Poplar Street in Bloomsburg on April 21. Yankovich was 20 years old at the time of the crash. Yankovich fled the crash and was detained by police in the 700 block of Poplar Street. Police said Yankovich claimed he was the designated driver despite showing signs of intoxication, according to the criminal complaint. Police said Yankovich had an alcohol level of .2 percent, the complaint says. BUTLER TWP. – Two girls were transported to Hazleton General Hospital for injuries they sustained in a vehicle crash on South Hunter Highway on Monday. Township police said a 17-yearold girl from Drifton, operating a 1997 Chevrolet, failed to stop for a stop sign at South Old Turnpike Road and struck an embankment. The driver and a 17-year-old girl from Freeland were treated at the hospital. WEST WYOMING – Metal scrap yards should be on alert for a person offering to sell a large amount of welding mig wire stolen from a machine shop. Police said about 250 feet of copper welding cable with leads and clamps and various hand tools were stolen during a burglary at James Eagen & Sons machine shop Thursday into Friday. Police believe the large amount of welding wire should draw suspicion at a recycling facility. Anyone with information about the burglary is asked to call West Wyoming police at 693-1211 or Luzerne County 911. HAZLE TWP. – Angel July Vasquez, of New York City, N.Y., reported Friday a case containing 90 musical CDs and another case containing about 300 CDs and a bag containing clothes were stolen from her vehicle when it was parked in the 1000 block of Alter Street, state police at Hazleton said. State police said the thief may attempt to sell the CDs at pawn shops or other by other means. Anyone with information about the theft is asked to call state police at Hazleton at 4593890. WILKES-BARRE – Jack Mitchell, of Wilkes-Barre, reported Thursday his silver 2001 Jeep Cherokee was stolen from the area of 63 S. Sherman St.

school graduation, but then must report to the county prison on Sunday to begin serving his sentence, which includes three years probation. Kirby was charged in May 2011 with burglarizing the home of Sharon Argo and taking several pieces of jewelry, a check and $100 in cash.
“For the lack of a better word, he’s been terrorizing the people of Chicory Court,” Assistant District Attorney Mamie Phillips said of Kirby, who had broken into Argo’s home before and has a criminal record in juvenile court in Luzerne County and at least one other county. “He doesn’t understand it’s not
OK to (break into people’s houses) and take things,” Phillips said. Kirby’s attorney, John Sobota, said his client has mental health issues that need to be addressed and that no clear diagnosis has yet been made. According to court papers, on May 5, 2011, Argo reported she
was missing at least seven pieces of jewelry, a check and $100 in cash, and that she believed her neighbor, Kirby, might be involved. Argo told police Kirby had broken into her home about a year earlier, but said he did so to use the phone. She did not pursue charges.
Police later learned Kirby pawned the items for $1,211. In an interview with police, Kirby admitted he entered Argo’s home on four separate occasions after finding a hidden key. Kirby said he used the money to pays his parents’ bills because they were having financial problems.

STATE OPINION: DANGEROUS PETS
Tighten control over wild animals
L
AST OCTOBER, after law-enforcement officials in Ohio were forced to kill four dozen exotic animals that had been released from their cages by their owner only moments before he took his own life, we pointed to the case as exhibit No. 1 as to why lions, tigers, bears and other such creatures shouldn’t be kept as pets. Every so often we come across another example. There was a 200-pound pet chimpanzee that severely mauled its owner’s friend in Stamford, Conn., in 2009. There was a Pennsylvania woman who was attacked and killed by her pet bear in 2009. Exotic animals can turn on their owners in a heartbeat, and they quickly can become a danger to the public. That is why we wholeheartedly support a bill that would prohibit the private possession EDITORIAL BOARD
of dangerous exotic animals. Currently people may own such animals with a permit from the Pennsylvania Game Commission. The measure, introduced by state Rep. Edward Staback, DOlyphant, has cleared the state House but has been stuck in the state Senate since January. Officials from the Humane Society of the United States, who support this legislation, were right on target when they said: The private possession of such animals poses a threat to public safety, not only from a potential attack but also from deadly viral, bacterial, fungal and parasitic infections, including rabies, tuberculosis, herpes B and salmonella. Private individuals lack the expertise and facilities needed to house and care for these animals safely and humanely.

Find a community cause and be ‘recklessly generous’ SEVERAL YEARS ago, a family from Mountain Top wanted to honor their son, a young man named Bobby, who had lost his life in a tragic car accident. They chose, among many activities, to contribute to an at-risk youth program that I was deeply passionate about and had a hand in managing. The program served adolescent females who were victims of trauma, neglect and abuse. In making the donation, Bobby’s mother instructed me to use the gift in ways that would be “recklessly generous” to the young teenagers we served. Those were her words to describe her son’s wonderful spirit of giving and how he just loved doing for others. For years now, the profound combination of those words – “recklessly generous” – has intrigued me, and I reflect on them frequently. It is not often that the word “reckless” is used to mean something so positive. There is no doubt that many people in our area are generous, even “very,” “tremendously” or “extremely” generous. To me, however, “recklessly generous” seems to take generosity to a new level. People can be generous with their resources, time and love. Some individuals who are recklessly generous can be spotted every now and then. Last month, a number of nonprofit orga-

Because of Lemmond, Pa. is a better state
M
any Pennsylvanians beyond the Wyoming Valley mourn the passing of state Sen. Charlie Lemmond. He was a wise and just senator who truly inspired the better instincts of others in government. At the start of this century, I sponsored legislation to pioneer progress in opening government records that illustrates some of his wonderful qualities. As soon as the bill passed the House, Senator Lemmond set upon a determined and thoughtful plan that ensured that this good-government initiative would become law. Although the new open-records law was a landmark, the ceremonial bill signing never occurred: Senator Lemmond characteristically demurred from public credit and I would not participate without him simply because, without him, there would have been no progress to celebrate! Pennsylvania is a better state in so many ways because of Senator Lemmond. State Rep. John Maher Upper St. Clair

Bill banning sex-based abortions fails to pass
A
Republican-sponsored bill that would ban sex-selective abortions failed to muster enough support to pass the U.S. House of Representatives on May 31. The final vote of 246-168 did not meet the required two-thirds majority for it to pass. The proposal would have made it a federal crime, subject to up to five years in prison, to carry out an abortion based on the gender of the fetus.

Vote could push Chicago closer to teachers strike Educators, who are angry about no raises and longer hours, are voting this week.
By DON BABWIN Associated Press
CHICAGO — Angry that one promised raise disappeared and that they’re being asked to work longer days without what they consider to be an adequate pay increase, Chicago teachers are considering authorizing their first strike in a quarter-century. In a signal of their mounting

ude to greatness, but merely a wistful farewell. “He’ll be my hero forever,” a somber Gutierrez said. “What I’ll Have Another did for me is so amazing. He brought happiness to my life.” Always the longest and toughest of the Triple Crown events, the 1 1-2-mile Belmont was instantly reduced to being just another big race. The favorite’s role fell to Dullahan, who ran third in the Derby and had been second in the morning line for the Belmont. He was made the 9-5 early choice. Trainer Doug O’Neill said I’ll Have Another was being retired because he developed swelling in his left front tendon that was the beginning of tendinitis. “This is extremely tough for all of us. It’s far from tragic but it’s extremely disappointing,” he said. O’Neill’s brother, Dennis, said it was hard to tell anything was wrong just by looking at the horse. “He looks great. He’s sound. He went great this morning. He looks super (but) you just can’t take a chance,” he said. “He’s too valuable of a horse and we love him to death like all of them. You wouldn’t run a horse if you think something might happen.” The scratch comes a day before an estimated 100,000 fans were expected to converge on the track in hopes of seeing, at
anger, teachers are voting this week — before a summer of negotiations and a recommendation from an independent factfinder — on a strike that wouldn’t happen until the next school year starts. If they do authorize a strike, teachers in the nation’s third-largest school district would be leaving the final decision in the hands of union leaders. “This is a reflection of the treatment we as teachers have been subjected to this year ... that the posturing of the board of education has created such misery long last, a Triple Crown winner — a champion who would help resurrect a struggling racing industry. I’ll Have Another joined 11 other horses since Affirmed who won the Derby and the Preakness, but were unable to complete a Triple Crown sweep in the Belmont, extending the longest gap between Triple winners to 35 years. The colt also became the third winner of the first two legs who was unable to run in the finale; Burgoo King in 1932 and Bold Venture in 1936 were the others. “It’s like completely letting the air out of a balloon,” said Ken McPeek, who trains Belmont contenders Atigun and Unstoppable U. Dale Romans, who trains Dullahan, said: “This was going to be a special race, one of the biggest races of our time. I’d rather have him in there. It would have been something special to beat him.” Doug O’Neill said he first noticed something might be wrong with the colt Thursday, hours after his usual morning gallop. “We prayed he kind of hit himself and that it was a little bit of skin irritation,” he told a horde of media gathered outside the detention barn at Belmont Park. O’Neill had called an audible Friday and taken his horse out to gallop at 5:30 a.m., three hours earlier than he had been working out in the days leading up to the race. He wanted to avoid the congestion created by all the Belmont horses going to the track at the same time. “I thought he looked great on
and suffering and discontent that we needed to send a message,” said David Rose, a teacher at Roberto Clemente Community Academy. The frustration largely centers around Mayor Rahm Emanuel, who rescinded a 4 percent raise last year and then began pushing for a longer school day. Teachers say the mayor — and now the district — have not offered them enough money to make up for the added time. Chicago Public Schools has proposed a five-year deal that guarantees teachers a 2 percent
pay raise in the first year and lengthens the school day by 10 percent. The union wants a twoyear deal that reduces class size and calls for teachers to receive a 24 percent pay raise in the first year and a 5 percent pay raise in the second year. Under a new Illinois law, at least 75 percent of the district’s 25,500 teachers would have to vote in favor of a strike authorization. But Rose and several other teachers said that amid the acrimony, they’re not worried about the union reaching that threshold. The union is expected to re-

the track,” he said, “and then cooling out, you could tell that swelling was back, and at that point I didn’t feel very good.” A veterinarian confirmed the diagnosis and suggested that O’Neill give the colt three to six months off before resuming training. But O’Neill said he and his brother, along with Reddam and his wife, were unanimous in deciding to retire the colt who had won four consecutive Grade 1 races, starting with the Santa Anita Derby in April. “I really thought he was going to run off tomorrow and really show something,” Reddam said. “So we were all a bit shocked, but
we have to do what’s best for the horse.” Dr. Larry Bramlage, on-call veterinarian for the Belmont, said it wouldn’t hurt I’ll Have Another to walk on the track “but would be a concern at a mile-anda-half at full speed.” He compared the problem to an Achilles tendon injury, which usually keeps a person off his feet for six weeks. “This one to the horse is nowhere near that severity,” he said, “but it takes the same amount of time to rehab it.” Bramlage said it probably would take a year for the colt to recover. He added that a tendon
lease results next week. “I think it’s going to be in the 90s because we are very angry,” said Zulma Ortiz, a teacher at John F. Kennedy High School on the city’s southwest side. “We’re fed up.” For his part, Emanuel has said he thinks teachers do deserve a raise. He also said he believes the two sides can find “common ground” and urged teachers to wait for the fact-finder’s report, which is due in mind-July and would offer recommendations for a contract. But Emanuel has had a contenin a racehorse is “more highly evolved” than anything in a human. O’Neill said I’ll Have Another would return to his home base at Betfair Hollywood Park in Inglewood, Calif., in the next few days. The injury underlines the fragility of these 1,100-pound thoroughbreds, racing at speeds up to 40 mph. Other Triple Crown bids were foiled in odd ways, too. Big Brown was pulled up at the top of the stretch in the 2008 Belmont, mysteriously failing to finish the race; War Emblem nearly fell to his knees coming out of the starting gate in 2002 and wound up eighth; Charismatic broke two bones in his left front leg with a quarter mile to go, but still finished third in 1999; Spectacular Bid stepped on a safety pin in his stall before the 1979 race and finished third; and Tim Tam ended up second in 1958 after running the final quarter-mile with a broken bone in his right front ankle. “You only get one chance to do this,” said four-time Belmont winner D. Wayne Lukas, who trains Belmont Stakes contender Optimizer. “From the standpoint of a purist, it’s a blow.” After talking to the media, O’Neill led I’ll Have Another out of the detention barn and walked him down a path toward the barn where the colt had stayed for most of the time he had been at the track. Since Wednesday, all the Belmont Stakes horses were housed in the same barn with 24hour surveillance; New York racing officials said it was to ensure the race was run fairly.
tious relationship with the Chicago Teachers Union since taking office last year and tried to go around the union in his push for longer school days. The union had turned down an offer for 2 percent pay raises in exchange for lengthening the school day, so Emanuel began asking teachers at individual schools to vote to waive the union contract and add the extra 90 minutes. The Illinois Educational Labor Relations Board subsequently voted to block Emanuel’s administration from negotiating with more schools, but not before the mayor angered teachers. “He created an incentive for them, the causes and conditions for teachers to mobilize in a way they haven’t mobilized before,” said Robert Bruno, a professor of labor and employment relations at the University of Illinois at Chicago.

faced legal challenges all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court. Last year the nation’s highest court vacated a federal appellate court decision that declared the ordinance unconstitutional. The case was sent back to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 3rd Circuit for reconsideration. Still to be determined is whether the amendment, passed by a voice vote, and the bill passed by a vote of 234 to 182 in the U.S. House of Representatives makes it through the U.S. Senate and then onto President Barack Obama’s desk for signing into law. Barletta was optimistic it would stand. “I believe it does (have a chance). I wouldn’t have proposed it if it didn’t have a chance,” he said. Barletta received support in offering the amendment from U.S. Reps. Joe Walsh, R-Ill., David Schweikert, R-Ariz., John Culbertson, R-Texas, and Steve King, R-Iowa.

When you drive down Long Pond Road, you see the sign designating the stretch by the racetrack “Dr. Joseph Mattioli and Dr. Rose Mattioli Drive.” Driving into the track under what’s appropriately called “The Tunnel Turn” is another sign welcoming you to “Doc’s Place.” Mattioli’s likeness adorns the souvenir race programs, pins and decals affixed to all racecars participating in this weekend’s events and a spot on the grass near Pit Road.
hazardous material from the original 114-year-old former hotel. Wilkes-Barre is on the hook for the demolition if other options don’t materialize because the city condemned the property. The city had agreed to provide about $250,000 in state gaming funds toward demolition. Motorists and downtown merchants have complained about congestion caused by traffic barriers around the site. The deadline for demolition and site clearance proposals will be 9:30 a.m. June 26, according to a pending legal ad issued by Wilkes-Barre. Wilkes-Barre and CityVest are jointly seeking the development proposals, which will be due July 20. They want mixed use commercial and residential development for the site, which “presents a remarkable riverfront development opportunity,” the ad says. CityVest plans to evaluate, select and negotiate with qualified developers, in consultation with the city and county, the ad says. The proposals won’t force the “It’s different not having Doc here. Ever since I’ve been coming to Pocono Raceway, he’s been a mainstay in the garage. He was well respected and admired by so many. He … is missed by the racing community,” said driver Bobby Labonte who has raced in 38 NASCAR events at the track since 1993 and has three wins. While Igdalsky and his brother Nick, who was named COO last summer, were learning the ropes from Mattioli, they were empowered to bring suggestions and ideas to their grandfather. Though they “agreed to disagree” sometimes, Igdalsky said he always felt like his proposal would be considered. Igdalsky laughed thinking about how Mattioli changed in his last few years, especially when it came to being wrong. “As he got older, he wouldn’t

CityVest, which is run by a volunteer board, welcomes “this intergovernmental cooperation and interest in the site,” the release said. Wilkes-Barre Mayor Tom Leighton said redevelopment has always been the “ultimate goal” for the site, which is close to King’s College, Wilkes University and River Common amenities. The city has the fourth largest downtown workforce in the state, and the parcel is situated at a “main artery,” he noted. “Now is not the time to focus on past decisions but to devise a plan that will develop this site inadmit that he was wrong, but he would admit you had a good idea,” Igdalsky said. When his grandfather had a rare occasion to admit he was wrong, “you wrote it down.” When driver introductions take place before Sunday’s Pocono 400, the traditional walk across the stage to shake hands with track officials will be missing Doc with his familiar white hat, white blazer and white beard. “It will be emotional,” Brandon said. He said drivers will miss the bear hugs and smiles they got from Doc. Some will still get a kiss from Rose, who will give the command to the drivers to start their engines. “When you think of pioneers in NASCAR, Doc Mattioli is one of the guys you think of,” said Travis Kvapil, who has raced nine times

In 1990, he returned to Saudi Arabia to oversee 330,000 military personnel with the 3rd Army, the same army Gen. George S. Patton led during World War II. Throughout his military career, Yeosock earned three Distinguished Service Medals; two Legion of Merit Bronze Stars; French Legion of Honor; King Faisal Award, Second Class; King Abdul Zaia Medal Second Class; Combat Infantryman Badge; 1994 National Veterans at the track since 2005. “He’s synonymous with Pocono Raceway. Obviously he’s going to be missed. It’s going to be different without him. I always looked forward to seeing him in the drivers meeting and shaking his hand at intros. He always seemed so happy. He was always gracious to the competitors. It’s going to be a change. Hopefully, the family will keep the race track going and prospering and we’ll honor him each time we go to the track and put on a good race,” he added. Brandon said the track, thanks to a multi-million-dollar repaving project since last year’s races, is smoother and will mean better and faster racing. Shortening the races by 100 miles will also make the events more exciting, according to several drivers who spoke on the issue.

And rumors of the track, one of just three independently owned venues on the NASCAR Sprint Cup circuit, losing a race are just that, he said. “It’s never going to happen,” he said. “You don’t see the drop offs in crowds here like you do at other tracks.” And what about rumors that Indy Car racing may return to Pocono for the first time since 1989? Is that something Brandon wants to see? “As a fan, yes,” he said. “As a promoter, I don’t know yet.” He said for now the focus is on the race events this weekend at the track his grandfather founded.

tify that the respondents are indeed qualified to proceed to the bidding phase of this project,” McLaughlin said. McLaughlin said he had not seen the RFQ responses and did not know if any included comment on the city’s request for a $20 million upfront payment for a 30- or 50-year lease. The city Parking Authority retained Desman Associates, a Chicago-based parking consulting firm, to review the submissions and recommend what would be a reasonable upfront payment. Jerry Salzman of Desman Associates would not disclose what figure he recommended, but said the firm did not endorse the city’s $20 million figure. In a letter to The Times Leader, Salzman said Desman did not “in any way” validate the $20 million figure. Mayor Tom Leighton said the city is encouraged by the list of respondents. “We will carefully examine their qualifications before proceeding,” he said. “This is an ongoing process and we’ll continue to work closely with our project partners.” Ed Katarsky, a member of the city parking authority board, said the RFQ respondents just want to “be in the pool” if the city and the authority decide to move forward and seek bid proposals. “Just because you ask for $20 million doesn’t mean you will get $20 million,” Katarsky said. Leighton has stated that $8 million would come off the top of the upfront payment to satisfy remaining $7 million debt on the Intermodal Transportation Center and $1million of debt on other parking facilities. “The city and the parking authority must agree to go to Phase 2 – the bidding phase,” McLaughlin said. “The city will now review the RFQ responses and determine if all meet the criteria to be considered as bidders for the leasing contract.”

Dullahan becomes favorite for Belmont Derby champ’s injury means no triple try
By RICHARD ROSENBLATT AP Sports Writer
NEW YORK — All along, trainer Dale Romans said he had the horse to beat in the Belmont Stakes. Now he does. Dullahan was made the 9-5 favorite for Saturday’s Belmont after I’ll Have Another was retired with a tendon injury a day before his attempt to become the first Triple Crown winner in 34 years. “I thought it was going to be

After it was treated, the colt went out for a light gallop early Friday morning, but when he returned the tendon was swollen. After an ultrasound, trainer Doug O’Neill announced the horse was not only out of the Belmont, but had been retired. Dullahan comes into the 1 1/2mile Belmont well rested.

Monumental showdown set after semifinal victories
Thome, Victorino flex muscle as Phillies roll over Orioles. By BEN WALKER AP Baseball Writer
BALTIMORE — Jim Thome broke loose, Shane Victorino homered and drove in five runs, and the Philadelphia Phillies emphatically ended a season-worst six-game losing streak by beating the Baltimore Orioles 9-6 on Friday night. Thome doubled twice, legged out an infield hit and got his first RBI of the season. Mike Fontenot also homered to PHILLIES the delight of a Camden Yards crowd full of spirited Phillies ORIOLES fans. Chris Davis and J.J. Hardy homered for the Orioles, who lost for the ninth time in 12 games. This was interleague ball, purely AL style. Boppers ruled on a night when even ninth-place batters such as Fontenot became dangerous. The Phillies hit for the cycle, and then some, in the second inning alone — a homer, a triple, three doubles and a single. Philadelphia scored six times, with Fontenot’s two-run shot coming right after his foul fly fell beyond Hardy as left fielder Endy Chavez backed off. By the fourth, it was 9-4 and the teams had already combined for 10 extra-base hits. Victorino had homered, doubled, singled and matched his career high for RBIs by then. Of course, the Phillies were

Rafael Nadal returns in his semifinal win against compatriot David Ferrer in three sets 6-2, 6-2, 6-1.
Clash of the titans
By HOWARD FENDRICH AP Tennis Writer
PARIS — Here comes the French Open final everyone expected and, except for other players, wanted: No. 1 Novak Djokovic, one victory from becoming the first man in 43 years to win four consecutive major championships, against No. 2 Rafael Nadal, one victory from becoming the only man to win seven titles at Roland Garros. How’s that for high stakes? Djokovic is undefeated in his past 27 Grand Slam matches, which includes beating Nadal in the finals at Wimbledon in July, the U.S. Open in September, and the Australian Open in January. Nadal has won 51 of 52 career matches at the French Open; only he and Bjorn Borg have won the clay-court tournament six times.

posed to provide a challenge, it did not — which probably isn’t all that stunning in Nadal’s case, but was rather striking when you consider Djokovic faced 16time major champion Roger Federer and won 6-4, 7-5, 6-3 in a match that wasn’t really that close. “His mental state and preparation for this match was excellent,” said Djokovic’s coach, Marian Vadja, “and this has to happen against Rafa.” Nadal found himself flying by the seat of his pants — OK, white shorts — on one point against No. 6 David Ferrer, somehow winning the exchange despite falling on his rump. Otherwise, he was completely in control en route to 6-2, 6-2, 6-1 victory. “I’m surprised,” said Toni Nadal, Ra-
Never before have the same two men met in four Grand Slam finals in a row, so it’s apt that no matter who wins Sunday, his achievement will be monumental. “I have this golden opportunity to make history. This motivates me. It really inspires me. I’m really grateful to be in this position, obviously,” said the 25year-old Djokovic, who owns five Grand Slam titles to Nadal’s 10. “And look, I’ll try to prepare for that match and get my hands on that trophy, if I can.” Won’t be easy, that’s for sure. Both Djokovic and Nadal breezed through their semifinals Friday. If this stage of a Grand Slam tournament is sup- See FRENCH, Page 6B

Comets’ Kishel going to showcase
“He has an ability to create big plays and outrun defenses, we’re really relying on that for this season.”

Loss of 100 miles gets good feedback
Soon-to-be senior WR will be in Foxborough, Mass. this weekend. By BRITTANY CAVANAUGH For The Times Leader
Kishel, who is finishing his junior year at Crestwood, has balanced his priorities out well enough to be an honor roll student and receive awards for his performance on the field. In his junior season, Kishel led the Comets with 14 receptions for 345 yards (averaging 24.6 yards per catch) and three touchdowns. He was named to the WVC Big School honorable mention for his efforts. “He has an ability to create big plays and outrun defenses, we’re really relying on that for this season,” his coach said. As for his other accomplishments, DON CAREY/THE TIMES LEADER the list continues to grow. Kishel will be traveling this weekend to the Crestwood High School football player Kota Kishel works out for college
Since Kota Kishel entered the Crestwood football program in seventh grade, Comets coach Greg Myers knew he was working with something special. Standing at 5 feet, 11 inches and 180 pounds, Kishel is slightly under the average size for a receiver. However, his ballhandling skills and quick feet easily make up for that. “He really separates himself with his speed from others in this category,” Myers said. “His speed and jumping abilities out-shadows his lack of height.” See KISHEL, Page 6B

LONG POND – Intensity up, dullness down. Maybe. Perhaps. We’ll see. No matter what happens in Sunday’s NASCAR Sprint Cup Pocono 400 Presented by #NASCAR, it would be hard to find a driver not happy about 100 less miles at Pocono Raceway. “The shorter the race, the more intense it is,” said Ryan Newman, who pilots the No. 39 Chevro- “You know, let. “We all grew up with that no- certainly tion, wherever sometimes we raced, whether it was a I felt like it 25- or 30- or 35- may be a lap race at a bit long short track, that’s what you there or showed up drawn out. with.

It could play even a bigger role with the 500-mile race, first run in 1974, sliced to 400 miles. Pocono’s second Cup race in August will also be 400 miles, also cutting the lap total from 200 to 160. The switch was made a few days after last August’s final 500mile event. The Cup drivers just left a track that shortened its races years ago – Dover International Speedway. Dover ran 500-mile races from 1971 through its first race of the 1997 season. Many clocked in at around 4½ hours. But since lopping off 100 miles for its second event in 1997, Dover races have been a few ticks over three hours for the most part. Like Dover prior to the change, the middle laps at Pocono have been criticized for a lack of racing. Most drivers were content to hold their positions and avoid any significant risks before making a final push at the end. See POCONO, Page 6B

ON THE MARK
Of course today’s Belmont Stakes has lost a lot of the luster, with the scratch of I’ll Have Another, but it’s still a race with a ton of prestige and it’s also still a $1,000,000 Grade I race. Plus throw in the fact that the stone cold favorite is out and we can be looking at some real nice payoffs when it’s all said and done. I’m going with the troubled Kentucky Derby horse, Union Rags. He switches jockeys and looks to be training sensational heading into this race. For the place spot I am going with the new morning line favorite, Dullahan. He’s a proven horse and certainly worthy of top billing. Finally rounding out my trifecta is the promising Bob Baffert trainee Paynter. It certainly is a much more wide-open affair with the Derby & Preakness winner out. Good luck to all on whatever your play may be. BEST BET: ROCKIN GLASS (12TH) VALUE PLAY: LOOKING TO SCORE (2ND)

NEW YORK — Robinson Cano homered twice and hit one of three straight long balls off an ineffective Johan Santana to lead the New York Yankees to a 9-1 rout of the Mets on Friday night. Hiroki Kuroda allowed one hit in seven scoreless innings before leaving with a bruised left foot. Cano ended Santana’s bid for a second straight nohitter with a two-run shot in the second, then connected again in the third to begin a string of three consecutive home runs by the Yankees. In the first Subway Series matchup of the season, Kuroda (5-6) gave up only a two-out double in the sixth to Omar Quintanilla. Santana (3-3) was given two extra days of rest after throwing a career-high 134 pitches last Friday against St. Louis in the first no-hitter in Mets history. But he didn’t have it this time, serving up a career-high four homers during New York’s fourth loss in five games Kuroda’s first appearance in the crosstown rivalry was cut short when Daniel Murphy scorched a liner off the pitcher’s foot, eliciting “oohs” from the crowd of 48,566 — just the second sellout at Yankee Stadium this season. The ball popped up high and was caught by third baseman Alex Rodriguez for the final out of the seventh. Kuroda limped off the field and down into the clubhouse, followed by several teammates and trainers. Cody Eppley worked the eighth and former Mets reliever Ryota Igarashi gave up an RBI double to Lucas Duda in the ninth in his Yankees debut before finishing the two-hitter. With Jose Reyes in Miami, Mariano Rivera preparing for knee surgery and Kuroda on the mound, the start of 16th Subway Series had a different look. The Mets, who slashed $49 million from their payroll last offseason, have a roster full of youngsters participating in their first game between the New York teams. Sam “The Bugler” Grossman, who will play Saturday at the Belmont Stakes, gave a new take on the national anthem. I’ll Have Another’s trainer, Doug O’Neill, was scheduled to throw out the ceremonial first pitch along with the horse’s owner, Paul Reddam, and jockey Mario Gutierrez, but they pulled out after the colt was scratched from making a Triple Crown bid because of injury.

Nationals 7, Red Sox 4
Stephen Strasburg struck out 13 in six innings, Bryce Harper homered and the Washington Nationals beat the Boston Red Sox for the franchise’s first victory at Fenway Park. Harper hit a two-run shot in the fourth and an RBI single in the sixth as the club improved to 1-9 at Boston’s iconic home. Strasburg (7-1) threw a career-high 119 pitches, including 33 in his final inning when he worked out of a one-out, basesloaded jam. He finished one strikeout shy of his career high of 14. Reds 6, Tigers 5
CINCINNATI — Wilson Valdez’s squeeze bunt with one out in the 10th inning scored Miguel Cairo for a victory over the Detroit Tigers. Cairo started the rally against left-hander Phil Coke (1-2) with his first triple of the season, the ball skittering out of the right-field corner and eluding Matt Young. One out later, Valdez pinch hit and bunted toward first baseman Prince Fielder, who threw home barehanded. Cairo slid his left hand over the plate before the tag. Indians 6, Cardinals 2
ST. LOUIS — Josh Tomlin scattered eight hits over seven innings, Johnny Damon hit a two-run homer and the Cleveland Indians beat St. Louis to send the Cardinals to their seventh loss in 10 games. Tomlin (3-3) pitched shutout ball into the seventh, when he allowed a two-run single to pinch-hitter Matt Adams. He threw just 76 pitches, improving to 4-0 in interleague play. Rays 5, Marlins 1
MIAMI — Matt Joyce homered, doubled and scored three times, and the Tampa Bay Rays escaped several jams to beat the slumping Miami Marlins 5-1 Friday night. The Marlins went 0 for 8 with runners in scoring position. They are 1 for 28 in those situations during their homestand, losing all four games while totaling four runs. Joyce went 2 for 3 with two walks. Jose Lobaton had two doubles and scored once. Five Rays pitchers combined on a seven-hitter. Former Marlin Burke Badenhop (1-1) came on in the fifth and threw 1 2-3 shutout innings. Fernando Rodney pitched a hitless ninth — the only inning in which the Marlins didn’t strand a runner. Astros 8, White Sox 3
CHICAGO — Jed Lowrie, Brett Wallace and Brian Bogusevic homered and the Houston Astros got a strong effort from their bullpen to beat the Chicago White Sox. Houston’s win was just its third in the last 13 games. Chicago lost for the fourth time in 15 games.

Mariners’ Hernandez to start on Tuesday The Associated Press
SEATTLE — Mariners ace Felix Hernandez will be pushed back a few more days and start on Tuesday night when Seattle opens a three-game series against San Diego. Seattle manager Eric Wedge announced the decision on Friday as the Mariners opened an interleague series against the Los Angeles Dodgers. There was consideration of starting Hernandez on Sunday in the series finale against the Dodgers. Wedge said that either way, Hernandez would get six more starts before the All-Star break. Blake Beavan will get the start Sunday against the Dodgers. Hernandez last started on June 1 against the White Sox when he was tagged for four earned runs in five innings, his shortest start of the year.

helped by having a designated hitter who really was a DH, rather than a bench guy. At 41, and beset by back problems for much of the year, Thome is the majors’ career leader in interleague home runs. He started in the cleanup spot despite being just 2 for 20 with 11 strikeouts this season. Thome’s dribbler past Jake Arrieta (2-8) went for a twoout single in the first inning when shifted second baseman Robert Andino had no chance to make a play from short right field, and set up Victorino’s RBI single. Thome lined a ground-rule double to right-center in the second that let Juan Pierre score the 1,000th run of his career. Thome doubled again in the fourth and scored on Victorino’s eighth homer for a 9-3 lead. Arrieta, the Orioles’ opening day starter, lost his sixth straight decision. He was tagged for career highs of nine runs and 11 hits in four innings. Joe Blanton (5-6) hung around for 6 2-3 innings and stopped a skid in which he had been pounded while going 0-3 over four starts. He has allowed 11 home runs in his past five outings. Jonathan Papelbon pitched the ninth and remained perfect in 16 save chances. Davis hit an RBI single in the second and Andino added a two-run double. Davis had a leadoff homer in the fourth. Hardy greeted reliever Michael Schwimmer with a twoout, two-run homer in the seventh. The crowd of 40,459 was the Orioles’ largest since opening day and was boosted by a throng of fans decked out in Phillies garb. With Citizens Bank Park sold out for the last 235 regular-season games, plenty of Philadelphia rooters made the short drive to see their team’s first visit to Baltimore since 2006. The “Let’s Go, Phillies!” chants began in the first inning, with Baltimore fans playfully trying to shout them down. When Carlos Ruiz hit an RBI single in the second, there was a collision of sound — the Phillies fans were yelling his nickname of “Chooooch” while the Orioles’ backers were simply booing. NOTES: Phillies 3B Placido Polanco (left wrist tear) got a cortisone shot and says he expects to miss a few more days. He was hurt making a tag on Tuesday night. ... Baltimore star Adam Jones went 0 for 4, extending his season-long drought to 14 at-bats. ... Orioles 49-year-old LHP Jamie Moyer is set to start for Triple-A Norfolk on Saturday night at Buffalo. He signed a minor league deal with Baltimore this week after being cut by Colorado.

ROGER CLEMENS PERJURY TRIAL
Debbie Clemens admits to using HGH The Associated Press

LB Leber retires
WASHINGTON — While it’s an open question whether jurors think Roger Clemens used performance-enhancing substances, they now know one thing for certain: His wife sure did. She said it happened on a whim, inspired by a newspaper article with the headline: “Boomers believe they’ve found a fountain of youth in a syringe.” She said it happened in her posh master bathroom, which she described as being “like the size of a kitchen.” She said she pulled up her shirt so that Brian McNamee could pinch her skin and inject her in the belly. She said no one else was there. She said she didn’t even tell her husband it was happening. In fact, she said her husband was away, even though the reason McNamee would have been staying at the Clemens’ house would have been to train Roger Clemens. And, she said that when she told her husband about it later on the phone, she didn’t have to tell him what human
MINNEAPOLIS — Linebacker Ben Leber is retiring after 10 seasons in the NFL with the San Diego Chargers, Minnesota Vikings and St. Louis Rams. Leber announced his retirement Friday on Minneapolis radio station KFAN. In a text message to The Associated Press, Leber said “It’s been a great run, lots of fun.” Leber grew up in Vermillion, S.D., and starred in college at Kansas State. He was a third-round pick of the Chargers in 2002 and spent his first four seasons in San Diego before signing as a free agent with the Vikings. Leber spent five seasons in Minnesota and spent his final year with the Rams in 2011. He had 498 total tackles, 24 sacks and five interceptions in his career.
growth hormone — HGH —was. “I don’t think he thought it was bad,” she testified. “It wasn’t like doing heroin or something crazy.” Debbie Clemens was always going to be a risky witness for her husband, and that was the case Friday as the perjury trial of the former pitcher reached the end of its eighth week. The defense is expected to rest Monday, and the jury could perhaps begin deliberations on Tuesday afternoon. Roger Clemens is charged with lying to Congress in 2008 when he denied using steroids and HGH. He’s also charged with obstructing Congress by telling 13 alleged untruths. Among them: Roger Clemens’ claim that his wife’s injection occurred without his prior knowledge or approval, and his claim that he wasn’t at Toronto Blue Jays teammate Jose Canseco’s Florida house on or about June 9, 1998. Debbie Clemens contradicted that second statement outright: She said the Clemens family — Roger, Debbie, four
sons, Debbie’s brother and a nanny — spent the night at Canseco’s house during the June 8-10 series of games against the Florida Marlins. The only debate is whether they were present for a midday pool party, an event McNamee has tied to the first steroids shot he said he gave Clemens a few days later. “We did not attend a party at Jose Canseco’s house,” Debbie Clemens said. It appears, therefore, that the best shot that Clemens’ lawyers have at avoiding a guilty verdict on the Canseco statement would be to persuade the judge or jury that it isn’t relevant to the steroids-HGH matter as a whole. Clemens’ lawyer Rusty Hardin has also said throughout the trial that sometimes an untruth should be classified simply as a “mistake.” While McNamee and Debbie Clemens gave differing accounts, her testimony might have bolstered his credibility: The jurors now know he was telling the truth when he said he gave her an
HGH shot during one of his extended stays at the Clemens’ home in Houston. McNamee said Roger Clemens was present for the shot. McNamee said he performed it while standing behind Debbie Clemens, reaching around her to inject her near the belly button. He estimated it could have happened anytime from 2002 to 2004. He quoted Debbie Clemens as saying to her husband: “I can’t believe you’re going to let him do this to me,” to which Roger Clemens responded, “He injects me, why can’t he inject you?” Debbie Clemens said the injection was “spontaneous, a no-brainer moment” that happened when McNamee approached her in the house a couple of days after she read the newspaper article about HGH. She said McNamee was facing her, not standing behind her. She believes the injection occurred in 2000, based on a USA Today article produced by her lawyer, although her husband’s deposition before Congress placed it in 2003.

Braves honor Smoltz
ATLANTA — Former manager Bobby Cox helped the Atlanta Braves retire John Smoltz’s No. 29 by calling the right-hander “the biggest of the biggame pitchers.” Smoltz was inducted into the Braves’ Hall of Fame and the team retired his number before Friday night’s game against Toronto. Smoltz becomes the ninth Braves player to have his number retired, including the fourth in four years, following Cox (6) last year, Tom Glavine (47) in 2010 and Greg Maddux (31) in 2009. Smoltz, an eight-time All-Star, won the National League Cy Young Award in 1996. He is the only pitcher in major league history with at least 200 wins and 150 saves. He says his 20 years with the Braves from 1988-2008 were “the greatest ride” of his life. BASKETBALL
Ex-UNC star Brennan dies
DURHAM, N.C. — Former North Carolina basketball star Pete Brennan, whose crucial shot in the semifinals helped the Tar Heels win the 1957 national championship, died Friday after a fight with cancer, his daughter said. Brennan, 75, was at a Durham rehabilitation center after his discharge about a week ago from UNC Hospitals, where he was treated for diverticulitis, said Kelly Brennan of Birmingham, Ala. Brennan had been diagnosed with prostate cancer in April, his daughter said. Brennan was a member of the 1957 team that went unbeaten and won the national championship with a tripleovertime victory over Wilt Chamberlain and Kansas. Brennan’s jumper with 4 seconds left forced the second of three overtimes in the semifinal win over Michigan State. BASEBALL
2 ordered to trial fan attack
LOS ANGELES — A man ordered to stand trial for the beating of a San Francisco Giants fan at Dodger Stadium admitted in a jailhouse conversation that he attacked the man. A transcript of the talk between Louie Sanchez and co-defendant Marvin Norwood was released Friday after both men were ordered to stand trial on charges of mayhem, assault and battery in the 2011 attack on Bryan Stow. They spoke after they had appeared in a lineup. Sanchez was recorded saying he got mad at the Giants’ fan for making derogatory remarks to his sister. In his words, “I socked him, jumped him and started beating him.” The conversation was played at a preliminary hearing but was indecipherable. The transcript was released by the judge when the hearing ended.

McIlroy shoots 5-under 65 to take lead The Associated Press
MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Rory McIlroy snapped his string of three straight missed cuts in style Friday, shooting a 5-under 65 to take the lead into the weekend at the St. Jude Classic. McIlroy came to Memphis looking to tune up his game before heading to San Francisco for his U.S. Open title defense at The Olympic Club. He birdied three of his final four holes, and had an eagle, five birdies and two bogeys to match his lowest PGA Tour round this year. With a birdie on No. 18, McIlroy reached 7 under to break out of a four-way tie for the lead. “It’s nice to see my name on that part of the leaderboard,” McIlroy said. “It’s not nice when you’re struggling to make the cut on a Friday afternoon. It was great. It’s nice to be through to the weekend obviously. It’s obviously even nicer to be leading and have a great chance.” Jeff Maggert, tied for the first-round lead with John Merrick, shot a 68 to match J.B. Holmes (64) and Kevin Stadler (65) at 6 under. Merrick had a 69 to join Chad Campbell (67) and Kevin Kisner (66) at 5 under. Davis Love III, the Americans’ Ryder Cup captain, had a 68 and was tied with Padraig Harrington (68) at 4 under. John Daly birdied his first three holes on his back nine to get to 5 under but finished with a 69 and was at tied at 3 under — making his fourth cut in five events. No one has ever won a PGA Tour event, then followed up the next week by winning the U.S. Open. After playing only two rounds each at The Players Championship, the BMW PGA Championship in England and then the Memorial last week, McIlroy isn’t thinking about history. His goal in Memphis is playing as much competitive golf as
possible while honing his game. “I saw a lot of positive signs with my ball striking. Hit a lot of good iron shots and drivers. So that was something that I was really working on the last couple of weeks and feels like it’s coming together for me. So excited to be in this position for the weekend. This is really what I wanted heading into next week,” McIlroy said. “For the time being, my mind is focused on trying to win this golf tournament.” McIlroy certainly has his driver working very well. Even when his caddie suggested a 3-wood off the tee at No. 18, McIlroy stuck with his driver and drove the ball 329 yards. That left him 115 yards to the pin, and he hit his approach to 5 feet for the final birdie and the lead. He started four strokes back of Holmes, who took advantage of a morning tee time to take the clubhouse lead at 6 under. McIlroy was happy with his play Thursday with the exception of a bogey on the par-5 third. He made up for that with an eagle Friday, sticking an 8-iron to 9 feet. Then he parred his way around the rest of the front nine, making the turn at 5 under and a stroke off the lead. McIlroy moved into a three-way tie atop the leaderboard with his second birdie of the round on the par-3 11th. He stuck his tee shot 5 feet from the hole and rolled the putt in for birdie to reach 6 under. He bogeyed Nos. 12 and 13 to fall back. McIlroy said he wasn’t happy that he had a wedge in his hand in the fairway on No. 13 from 127 yards only to hit into the rough turning a birdie chance into a bogey. McIlroy turned it around on the par-5 16th, hitting his second shot to 4 feet. The ball hit the left edge and curled right, leaving McIlroy to tap in for birdie
and a share of the lead. He had a nice par save on No. 17 after hitting his drive behind a tree and his second into a greenside bunker before getting up and down with a 4-footer for par and the final birdie. LPGA CHAMPIONSHIP PITTSFORD, N.Y. — Se Ri Pak, playing for the first time since injuring her left shoulder in early April, shot a 1under 71 to take a one-shot lead after the second round of the LPGA Championship. Pak was at 3-under 141, one shot ahead of Inbee Park, Paula Creamer, Mika Miyazato, and Sandra Gal. Park shot a 70, Gal had a 71, and Creamer and Miyazato shot 72. Defending champion Yani Tseng followed her opening 76 with a 75 to finish at 7-over 151, making the cut on the number. Cristie Kerr, the runaway winner in 2010, was 2 over after a 76. Slumping Michelle Wie missed the cut with rounds of 74 and 82. REGIONS TRADITION BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — Bill Glasson shot a 3-under 69 on to take a two-stroke lead over Russ Cochran after the second round of the Regions Tradition, the second Champions Tour major of the year. Glasson had a 9-under 135 total at Shoal Creek, and has made only one bogey — Friday on No. 16 — in the first 36 holes. He is seeking his first victory since winning the 1997 Las Vegas Invitational for the last of his seven PGA Tour titles. Cochran had a 68. Defending champion Tom Lehman was three strokes back along with Fred Funk, Brad Bryant and Jeff Sluman. Lehman and Bryant shot 69, Funk had a 71, and Sluman a 68.
TAMPA, Fla. — Carlos Bocanegra, Clint Dempsey and Herculez Gomez scored as the United States opened World Cup qualifying with a somewhat shaky 3-1 victory over Antigua and Barbuda on Friday night. Bocanegra put the Americans ahead in the eighth minute, tapping the ball into the net after goalkeeper Molvin James made a diving stop on Gomez’s header off Landon Donovan’s corner kick. With his 13th international goal, Bocanegra tied Marcelo Balboa’s record for American defenders. Dempsey’s 26th goal came on a penalty kick in the 44th minute after Marvin McCoy upended Donovan streaking into the area. Peter Byers scored in the 65th minute for 105th-ranked Antigua, a nation of about 88,000 that almost could fit its entire population in 65,000-seat Raymond James Stadium. Gomez restored a two-goal lead in the 72th after his initial shot and Michael Bradley’s followup both were blocked. It was a costly night for the No. 28 Americans, trying to qualify for their seventh straight World Cup. Third-choice left back Jose Torres was stretchered off after injuring his left ankle in the 54th. Bocanegra shifted to the left, and Oguchi Onyewu entered only to overcommit and allow Byers to come in alone on goalkeeper Tim Howard. After going 6-5-2 in exhibitions since Jurgen Klinsmann replaced Bob Bradley as coach last July, the Americans played their first competitive match since blowing a two-goal lead and losing to Mexico 4-2 in the final of the CONCACAF Gold Cup last June 25.

The Times Leader staff
DURHAM, N.C. – Adam Warren is hitting his stride. The Scranton/Wilkes-Barre pitcher tossed seven more shutout innings on Friday to raise his consecutive scoreless streak to14 innings as he picked up his fourth win of the season in the Yankees’ 3-1 defeat of Durham at Durham Bulls Athletic Park. Coming off his first shutout since he pitched for Class-A Tampa in 2010, WarYANKEES ren (4-3) only allowed three hits as he earned his sixth quality BULLS start of the season. The Yankees picked up their first four-game sweep of the season and first since last August at home against Rochester in winning their season-high fifth consecutive game. Scranton/Wilkes-Barre continues to win games the right-hander starts this season as it won for the sixth straight time Warren took the hill and for the ninth time in his 12 starts in 2012. Warren only got in trouble twice on the evening. The first time was with runners on first and third with two outs in the second. But he got Chris Gimenez to fly out to end the inning. Then in the fifth, with runners on the corners and one out, he got a groundball and the runner on third, Reid Brignac was out after getting caught in between third and home. The final out of the frame was a pop out. Meanwhile, the Yankees got Warren all the support he needed in the top of the first. Ronnier Mustelier knocked in Kevin Russo on a groundout for the first run and Francisco Cervelli drew a bases-loaded walk for a 2-0 lead. Russell Branyan’s fourth home run of the season – and in the four-game series – gave SWB a 3-0 lead in the top of the third with a solo shot. The rest was all up to Warren and relievers Chase Whitley and Juan Cedeno. Whitley allowed the only Bulls’ run of the game in the bottom of the eighth, while Cedeno pitched a perfect ninth for his second save. Warren cruised through the middle innings retiring nine in a row from the second to fifth innings. He threw 104 pitches, 60 of them for strikes, while walking two, hitting a batter and uncorking a wild pitch.

Four years after Nastia Liukin and Shawn Johnson’s rivalry captivated the Beijing Olympics, the Americans might have another 1-2 punch. Gabby Douglas pulled off something of a surprise Friday night when she tied world champ Jordyn Wieber atop the standings at the U.S. gymnastics championships. The two finished with 60.650 points, with Aly Raisman 0.45 behind. The finals are Sunday, and results will help narrow the field for the Olympic trials later this month. The London team will be named July 1 following the trials in San Jose, Calif. Liukin, meanwhile, has some work to do to make her second Olympic team. The Olympic allaround champion knows if she’s going to make the London squad, it will be because of uneven bars, her signature event. But this was her first time competing uneven bars since winning a silver medal on them at the Beijing Games — she and China’s He Kexin actually had the same score, but He won the gold on a complex tiebreaker — and the rust clearly showed as she scored a 13.05 with just a 7.35 for execution. Wieber has lost one — count it, one — all-around competition since the 2008 season, and is considered the heavy favorite for London. But Douglas served notice at the American Cup in March that she was one to watch, too, finishing ahead of Wieber. Her scores didn’t count then, because she was competing as an alternate. On Friday night, she did it again when it counted. Douglas was something of a surprise when she made last year’s world championship squad, with scant international experience and seemingly little stage presence. But she blos-
somed in the spotlight, and with her bubbly personality and megawatt smile, she’s now got some serious star power to go with her skills. Another few performances like these, and the “Flying Squirrel” might very well be the talk of the London Games. Martha Karolyi gave Douglas the “Flying Squirrel” nickname for her circus-like acrobatics on uneven bars, but even birds could take a few lessons from her these days. She soared so high on her first release, flipping herself up and back over the bar, her legs piked, that she could have reached out and touched her toes before grabbing the bar. She had the crowd oohing and aahing throughout the routine, and when she hit the mat with a solid thud, she threw up her arms, a big grin exploding across her face. There’s more to Douglas than simply uneven bars, though. She turned on the charm with her floor routine, flashing a big smile as she waved her hands on her dance elements. She got such great height on her tumbling runs you could have driven one of those new Fiats beneath her. She wasn’t perfect, though, with several wobbles on balance beam and a big step off the mat on the landing of her vault. Wieber, meanwhile, had an uncharacteristically rough night, with unsteady performances on both vault and balance beam. She landed her vault with locked knees and needing to take a big step to the right to steady herself. She is usually rock solid on balance beam — she has a bronze medal on it from last year’s world championships — but she was all over the place Friday. She wobbled mightily on a back handspring, had to stick her leg out to the side to hang on after a back somersault and took a step on her dismount. Wieber needed a 15.25 on floor exercise, her final event, to match Douglas and she pulled out all the stops.

FRENCH OPEN
By HOWARD FENDRICH AP Tennis Writer
PARIS — When Maria Sharapova’s opponent in the French Open final, Sara Errani, was 12 years old, she struck out on her own, leaving behind her family in Italy and heading off to Nick Bollettieri’s famed tennis academy in Florida. Far from her parents, and not yet able to speak English well, Errani stuck it out for about 10 months, crying nearly every day. She called home a lot. “I knew she was determined and focused,” her mother, Fulvia, said after watching Errani win her first Grand Slam semifinal, “so I knew she would figure things out.” Now 25, Errani most certainly has. She figured out she needed to go back to Europe, eventually finding a new coach and a place to train in Spain. She figured out how to overcome the limitations of a 5-foot-41⁄2 frame in a sport filled with taller, harder hitters — such as the 6-foot-2 Sharapova, a three-time major champion who will be standing across the net Saturday at Roland Garros the title at stake. Mostly, Errani figured out that it made no sense to worry about whether she would ever be good enough to beat the best and instead focused on always improving. “It’s not a question of believing or not believing. I don’t think about that. I just think about playing. I just think about going on court and giving my all. And whatever happens, happens. I’ve never thought, ‘I can’t beat someone in the top 10.’ I play and give my best, and if I don’t win, I don’t win,” Errani explained. “But I don’t think about whether I can win the title. I just think about the next match. If I win, then I

fael’s uncle and coach, “because we were expecting a very difficult match against one of the best players in the world.” Make no mistake: Ferrer is a formidable opponent, not someone who got hot for a few weeks to sneak into the semifinals. He was playing in his third Grand Slam semifinal. He already won two clay-court titles this year. And it was Ferrer who upset Nadal in the 2011 Australian Open quarterfinals, stopping his bid for a fourth consecutive Grand Slam title — the milestone Djokovic now seeks. Nadal won all 15 sets he’s played this year at Roland Garros, losing only 35 games, the lowest total for anyone reaching a major final since Borg lost 31 on his way to winning the 1980 French Open. Nadal has won 71 of 72 service games, saving 18 of 19 break points. Pretty close to perfect.
think about the next one. And if I win again, then the next one. But I don’t think too far ahead. That doesn’t help a player. It’s better to take it a step at a time.” Sharapova is a global superstar and her story is well-known: born in Siberia, moved with her father to Florida as a kid, worked with Bollettieri, too. “I don’t remember crossing paths,” Sharapova said. “We have never played against each other, but I certainly know she’s a dangerous player because of the way she’s played here and because of the way she’s performed on clay this year.” Errani’s tale is far less familiar; she’s not even all that famous in Italy. Until a quarterfinal run at this year’s Australian Open, Errani never had been past the third round at a Grand Slam tournament. Until this week, she was 0-28 against players ranked in the top 10. Now she’s 2-28, thanks to victories over No. 6 Sam Stosur in the semifinals, and No. 10 Angelique Kerber in the quarterfinals. Those upsets followed wins over two past French Open champions, 2008’s Ana Ivanovic and 2009’s Svetlana Kuznetsova. And before she even sets foot on court Saturday, Errani owns a major title: She teamed with Roberta Vinci to beat Maria Kirilenko and Nadia Petrova 4-6, 6-4, 6-2 in the women’s doubles final Friday. That means Errani can become the first player to win the singles and doubles events at the French Open since Mary Pierce in 2000. Asked to explain her surge this season, the 21st-seeded Errani pointed to her equipment: She switched to a racket with a longer handle — she’s cracked repeatedly that growing longer arms wasn’t an option — which adds “I really don’t like to talk about perfection, because that, my opinion, doesn’t exist. You can always play better,” said the 26year-old Nadal, whose only loss at the French Open came against Robin Soderling in the fourth round in 2009. “But, sure, I am very happy the way that I am playing. Probably today was my best match of the tournament.” With Ferrer serving at 1-1, 30all in the second set, Nadal produced a masterpiece, turning a gaffe into a highlight. During a point that lasted more than 30 shots, Nadal’s feet slipped out from under him as he sprinted toward the net. On the slow-motion replay, it’s easy to see that his eyes never left the ball, even as he crashed to the court. Suddenly sitting — yes, plopped on his backside, right there in the middle of the most important clay-court stadium in the world — Nadal raised his left arm to slice a backhand drop shot that prolonged the point and drew Ferrer forward. As if that weren’t impressive enough, Nadal popped up like a jack-in-the-box in time for the

some oomph to her strokes. The change made such a difference that Errani was willing to pay to get out of her contract with the company that made her old racket. “It was love at first sight,” she said about the new model. “From my first practices with it, I really felt completely different. I could control the ball better. I could hit it faster. It boosted my confidence.” Errani’s coach, Pablo Lozano, was asked whether he expected her to go this far when they first began working together eight years ago. “No. No. No. Not even a year ago,” he replied. “To reach the final at a tournament like this, you need to be one of the best 10 or 15 or maybe 20 players in the world.” Well, while Sharapova is as-
sured of returning to No. 1 in the rankings by virtue of reaching her first French Open final, Errani is guaranteed to move into the top 10 for the first time. And while Sharapova can become the 10th woman to complete a career Grand Slam, Errani has a chance to forever be known as a Grand Slam singles champion. Yes, just like Mom knew all along, Errani has figured things out. “I don’t even know how to describe how I feel. I haven’t had a chance to stop and really think about what I’ve done. But maybe it’s better not to. Maybe it’s better to keep going this way, not thinking about it, and just keep playing,” Errani said. “I’ll take the time to think about it at the end of the tournament — or at the end of my career.”
next shot, a volley-lob that arced over Ferrer’s head and settled near the baseline. Ferrer, no slouch himself in the speed department, got to the ball, but his forehand landed in the net. That gave Nadal a break point, and he converted it in much more conventional fashion, staying upright until Ferrer simply pushed a forehand long. “Both of us were playing more or less the same type of tennis, but then he started to become more and more aggressive,” Ferrer said. “There was nothing I could do to fight back.” Federer appeared to feel that way, too, particularly after Djokovic broke him four times in the second set. At the start of that set, Federer actually appeared to get going. He broke to go ahead 1-0 in a game that featured a particularly compelling, 38-stroke point. Federer hit a drop shot that Djokovic slid and stretched to get, the ball an inch or so off the ground; Federer replied with a lob that sent Djokovic sprinting to the baseline for a no-look, back-tothe-net, between-the-legs pass-
ing shot; Federer knocked home a volley winner. Djokovic, chest heaving, smiled as he went to towel off. A year ago in the French Open semifinals, Federer snapped Djokovic’s 43-match winning streak in a four-set thriller. On Friday, Vajda explained afterward, Djokovic was determined to play “extremely patient ... not rushing.” Worked wonders. Increasingly confounded by his opponent and the swirling wind, Federer made a very un-Federerlike 46 unforced errors. Djokovic made 17. “I was struggling to sort of keep the ball in play,” said Federer, who is 30 and nearly 21⁄2 years removed from his most recent major championship. “When you’re down two sets to love against Novak, it’s not the same match anymore. He goes for broke and there is no more fear.”

The result was a monotonous game of follow-the-leader, with the field being spread out around to 2.5-mile track under long green-flag racing. That could change Sunday. “I think that’s a positive change,” said Kyle Busch, who drives the No. 18 Toyota. “You know, certainly sometimes I felt like it may be a bit long there or drawn out. Now it might add less of a lull during the middle part of the race. “So, you’ll have the beginning and people trying to make moves and get themselves in position. Then you’ll have guys working it and getting themselves in position for the final pit stop and the final run thereafter.” While the drivers have raved about the newly-paved track and are generally pleased with the new tires from Goodyear, there is one factor that could make the possibility the intensity go poof. The new pavement also means a narrower groove where the cars can run at their optimum. Hope is that with the twoday Cup tire test, practice sessions and qualifying by both Cup

home of the New England Patriots, Gillette Stadium, to be showcased at a college positional combine camp. He received this invitation due to his successful junior season and top performance at the Blue Grey Combine at the Philadelphia Eagles training facility. The participants were graded on six skills, including 40-yard dash, 185-pound bench press, 20-yard shuttle run, broad jump, route running and quarterbackreceiver drills. Kishel finished first in the shuttle run in Philadelphia, where players run between two cones showing their ability to be quick on their feet. He also was a high finisher in the broad jump with 10 feet. “At first I was nervous to see where I stood compared to the other players, said Kishel about his first camp. “Once I was on the field, my nerves calmed down and I just focused on my performance.” According to his father, John Kishel, Kota exceeded his family’s expectations. “We all weren’t sure what level he was at since this was his first camp, but we were surprised with how well he did perform,” John Kishel said. This weekend, the Kishel family will travel to Foxborough, Mass., in hopes of seeing Kota turn in another outstanding performance. He will be up against 147 other talented players selected to attend. Not only does he get to train in NFL facilities, he’s gaining positive exposure for his future football career.
and ARCA drivers and today’s ARCA race that will change. Denny Hamlin had a suggestion to Cup Series Director John Darby on how to widen the race area. “I talked to Darby a little bit about that,” Hamlin said after Thursday’s first tire test session. “I said we need to put cones out there and have us run around them. Even if it’s for an hour, gosh, I think it would do big things for the groove of the race track. It would be a lot more forgivable. “And that will all come in the race. We’re going have to run two wide in the race, especially on restarts. But in test sessions, nobody wants to risk venturing up there because you risk so much of wrecking once you get out of the line.” He has no doubts about wanting to continue playing football for as long as he possibly can. As far as being at the level Kota is now, his father gives him all of the credit. When it comes to training, he makes sure he gets time in everyday to go lifting and run for speed or endurance. When it comes to school, he puts in the time to maintain his 4.0 GPA. And when it comes to his health, he watches what he eats to maintain the proper physique for his sport. “He doesn’t even drink soda; what kind of teenager doesn’t drink soda?” laughs his father. Dedication would be the best way to describe this young athlete. As his senior year approaches, his coach is expecting Kota to rise up and lead the Comets on and off the field. After last season ended, Kishel headed straight back into the weight room to begin prepping for his final year as a Comet. “Kota is an emotional player. If he or the team makes a mistake, he’ll be the one yelling at everyone to get them fired up,” Myers said. “He really gets the team motivated when they need it. After graduating, Kishel hopes to pursue his dreams of playing football and becoming a surgeon. For his father, John, as long as studies come first -- followed by football -- he’s all for what Kota wants. What Kota wants is to continue with school and playing football, as it gives him a chance to let go of everything else going on in his life. “Football is great because it gives me a chance to escape from the real world. It’s just my favorite thing,” Kishel said.

LeBron James scored 45 points for the Heat in Thursday’s Game 6 win over the Celtics. Game 7 is tonight in Miami.
Celtics, Heat have one game for crown The winners of tonight’s game will capture the confernce title and a spot in the finals.
By TIM REYNOLDS AP Sports Writer
MIAMI — LeBron James has no idea what he will do for an encore. He offered a simple vow instead. “I won’t regret Game 7,” James said. There may not have been another sentiment the Miami Heat would have preferred hearing more as they prepare to host the Boston Celtics Saturday night. James is coming off a seasonsaving 45-point, 15-rebound, fiveassist effort to force Game 7. The winner will head to Oklahoma City to start the NBA finals on Tuesday night and the loser heads into an offseason of decided uncertainty. “Win, lose or draw, I’m going to go in with the mindset like I’ve had this whole season,” James said. “And you know, we’ll see what happens.” A series that has gone back and forth — Miami won the first two games, then lost three straight before James carried the Heat to a win that denied Boston the East crown on Thursday night — comes down to an ultimate game. For the Heat, it’s a chance to play for the ring they couldn’t win last year in the opening act of the Big Three era. For the Celtics, it’s probably one last chance for their current core to reach the NBA’s mountaintop. “This team has been about adversity all year long, you know, so this is not going to be nothing new,” Celtics forward Paul Pierce said. “It’s been tough for us all year long to get to the point where we would be at, and why wouldn’t it be tough now? Winning is hard. Trying to get to the finals is hard. And this is as hard as it gets. And I think we are prepared for it.” It’s the 111th time a best-of-seven NBA series has gone the distance. Home teams are 88-22 in the previous matchups. That means little to Heat coach Erik Spoelstra. The last time Boston was on his team’s court, the
UP NEXT
GAME 7 Boston Celtics at Miami Heat 8:30 p.m. today, ESPN
Celtics sputtered offensively and still managed to leave with a win, taking Game 5 to put Miami on the brink. The Heat are still there. Only this time, so are the Celtics. “Both teams will come out with an appropriate level of urgency,” Spoelstra said. “And that’s the beauty of a Game 7. We fought and earned the right to have this on our home court. We don’t take that for granted and we don’t assume that that will take care of anything. We’re going to have to play, compete at the same urgency level we played last night. And we’ll also have to play well and probably have to beat them when they’re at their best.” If James has the same game he had Thursday, the Celtics will have to beat him at his best. The reigning MVP put on a show in Game 6. The expression on James’ face barely changed all night — after makes, after misses, even after a drink got dumped on him while leaving the court not long after the final buzzer of Miami’s 98-79 win. He made 19 of 26 shots, that 73 percent success rate the best he ever posted in a playoff game. His 30 first-half points matched an NBA season high. His 45 points were second-most in Heat playoff history. “Sometimes superstars get hot,” Pierce said. “He’s been playing unbelievable,” Heat guard Dwyane Wade said. “One of the best this league has ever seen,” Heat forward Chris Bosh said. Of course, if the Heat lose on Saturday, that performance will soon be forgotten. For the Celtics, this will be their seventh Game 7 in the last five years — they’re 4-2 in the previous ones, including a home win over Philadelphia one round ago. James is averaging 34 points per game in the series, the Celtics are getting both outshot and outrebounded, their best shooter in Ray Allen has been slowed by ankle pain and Pierce is shooting 34 percent.

tom line,” Devils goaltender Martin Brodeur said of the fan support. “I think we’ve played hard and got some success. It’s hard when you don’t win for our fans to be involved and do what they’d like to do, especially the last few years when we played the Rangers and Flyers (in the postseason). It’s tough in this area to play some rivals if you don’t have success, their fans take over the building. But we got the success this year and that made a big difference why we feel a lot more comfortable playing.” Coming into this season, the Devils had posted a 3-7 postseason mark at “The Rock,” which opened for the 2007-08 season. Veteran defenseman Andy Greene said the Devils are just a better team overall this season.
“I think going into the playoffs we were playing good hockey,” Greene said. “The few years before that, I don’t want to say we stumbled into the playoffs, but we probably weren’t where we needed to be heading into the playoffs. We’ve been playing the right way and the crowd has been great. We’re feeling their energy and feeding off it. It’s been great.” It’s hard to say whether the Kings notice the opposing crowd. They won all three games in Vancouver in the first round, two in St. Louis in the second and three in Phoenix in the third. They are 15-3 overall, with all three losses coming in potential series-clinching Game 4s at home. Now they get another chance to win on the road. And this one
will be the biggest of all for a franchise that had only made the Cup final once before: 1993, losing to Montreal in five games. Los Angeles goaltender Jonathan Quick, who might be the front-runner for the Conn Smythe Trophy as the postseason MVP, actually was funny when asked if he was familiar with the Prudential Center after two games. “No, it’s like any arena,” he said. “You’ve got about 18,000 people that want you to lose no matter where you go.” Forward Justin Williams said the team isn’t really focused on the arena. Just the task at hand and what the players have to do to accomplish it. He said thinking about winning the Cup now would be a distraction and that might have been one of the problems the team encountered in Game 4 on Wednesday. Williams is aware of the fans. “You absolutely notice crowds,” he said. “Crowds give you energy. They basically carry the momentum in the games sometimes. We’ve done a good job of handling it and not letting it affect us. I think crowds aren’t going to take you out of a game but they are going to encourage you a little bit and get you revved up.”

NEWARK, N.J. — There was a time when home-ice advantage wasn’t the New Jersey Devils’ best friend. If either the rival Rangers or Flyers were in New Jersey, there would be as many New York or Philadelphia jerseys in the crowd as Devils’ colors. Not anymore, at least not in the playoffs this year. The Devils have been tough at the Prudential Center, known as the “The Rock,” and they need one more big effort tonight in Game 5 of the Stanley Cup final to keep their championship dreams alive and prevent the Los Angeles Kings from capturing their first NHL title since coming into the league in 1967. It’s a tough task. The Kings haven’t lost on the road since the playoffs started two months ago. They are 10-0, including two overtime wins here in Games 1 and 2. A bounce or two here or there, and New Jersey might be the one leading the best-of-7 series 3-1. That’s wishful thinking for Devils fans. The reality is New Jersey has some momentum coming off a 3-1 win on Wednesday night, and it needs to keep winning or else. The Devils are 6-4 in the playoffs at home after posting a 2413-4 mark in the regular season. It’s gotten their fans behind them like never before. “We’re winning, that’s the bot-

He’ll also be around to watch I’ll Have Another and jockey Mario Gutierrez lead the field of 11 3-year-olds in the post parade onto the track. The injury is not considered serious, and Belmont Stakes on-call veterinarian Larry Bramlage cleared the colt to make an appearance. “I’m going be bummed we’re not in it, but I’ll be studying the (Racing) Form a little differently tonight,” O’Neill said. Dullahan, who was the second choice behind I’ll Have Another, leaves from the No. 5 post with Javier Castellano aboard. Union Rags moves up to the 3-1 second choice.
Pocono Downs still hoping for good turnout today B y JOE BARESS For The Times Leader
After an abrupt end to I’ll Have Another’s career, Pocono Downs prepares for the Belmont Stakes without a horse vying for the Triple Crown. “Instead of feeling sorry for ourselves, we feel sorry for the horse,” Dale Rapson, vice president of racing at Mohegan Sun, said. “He won’t have the chance to race and you just hope he’s ok.” I’ll Have Another was scratched from the third race of the Triple Crown because of a swollen front left tendon. The injury also forced I’ll Have Another to retire from the sport. Rapson said when a horse doesn’t have a shot to win the Triple Crown, the Belmont Stakes is the least popular of the three Triple Crown races. Despite the past, Rapson remains optimistic about the turnout for tomorrow’s race. “There are still some good horses in there and it’s a good betting race,” Rapson said. “The weather is supposed to be nice and hopefully the promotions will be strong enough to keep the people coming.” Originally, if I’ll Have Another won the Triple Crown, those who had a receipt from swiping their Racing Rewards card or Player’s Club card at Pocono Downs and a valid I.D. could get a free drink at select bars. Now fans will earn a free drink for simply swiping their cards. All the other promotions remained the same. Starting at 2 p.m. Saturday, fans can buy food from Johnny Rockets and Ben and Jerry’s ice cream at the tent and patio. Theywillalsohaveaccesstoafullbar.Thosewhoswipetheir Racing Rewards cards or their Player’s Club cards at any kiosk from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. will be automatically entered for a chance to win a $1,000 betting voucher or $5,000 in cash. “We have exciting live harness racing right after the Belmont Stakes and a chance to win a $1,000 betting voucher or $5,000 in cash,” Jennifer Starr, head of media relations at Pocono Downs, said. “It’s also going to be spectacular weather so come out and watch racing.” Secretariat’s jockey, Ron Turcotte, kicked off the weekend at Pocono Downs Friday, signing autographs from 6:30 p.m. to 9 p.m. on the track apron. The former Triple Crown winner said I’ll Have Another and his jockey, Mario Gutierrez, had a great connection and predicted the duo would have won the Belmont Stakes. “I thought Mario (Gutierrez) had very good judgment and I thought that they could pull it off,” Turcotte said. “The horse seemed to be the best of this year’s crop.” Turcotte wanted to see I’ll Have Another become the first horse to win the Triple Crown since Affirmed in 1978. “I’m very disappointed and I really love the little horse,” Turcotte said. “He was trying hard.” With I’ll Have Another scratched from the race, Turcotte predicts Dullahan will win the Belmont Stakes. “Bob Baffert (Paynter’s trainer) has the speed horse but if he burns himself out a little bit I think Dullahan will win,” Turcotte said. Horse racing fan Charlie Button from Mountain Top said I’ll Have Another looked unbeatable heading into the race. “It’s very disappointing for the owners, trainer and jockey,” Button said. “He looked great.” Like Turcotte, Button will bet on Dullahan, who finished thirdintheKentuckyDerby,towinthethirdraceoftheTriple Crown. “He was blocked in at the start,” Button said. “I think he could have finished second possibly first.” BillBellfromWestPittstonpredictsUnionRagswillrecover from his seventh place finish at the Kentucky Derby. “He got all bounced around in the Derby and didn’t race in thePreakness,”Bellsaid.Hehasfiveweeksofrestandhorses with rest have done well in the Belmont.” Bell travels to Belmont Park every year for the race and said I’ll Have Another’s retirement will hurt the attendance. “When there’s a Triple Crown winner, the crowd is well over 100,000 people,” Bell said. “Now there will be about 50,000 or 60,000 people.”
NEW YORK — Bummer. Belmont Park was prepping for a big ol’ party Saturday, some 100,000 people ready to roll in by the trainloads for a shot at cheering on the first Triple Crown winner since 1978. They would’ve come from the towering skyscrapers of Manhattan to the west, from the sprawling homes of Long Island to the east, from points in between and beyond. Well, they can find something else to do now. The party’s over — before the horses ever got to the starting gate. About 30 hours from post time, I’ll Have Another called it a career. An injury to the tendon in his left front leg was the culprit — not that bad, from a pure medical standpoint, but an absolutely crushing blow to the Belmont Stakes and horse racing in general. “It’s like completely letting the air out of a balloon,” said Ken McPeek, the trainer for two other Belmont horses. The race will go on, of course, but all the joy has been snuffed out. Who’s going to win? Who cares? “I’ll enjoy the racing,” said Dr. Larry Bramlage, veterinarian for the Belmont Stakes. Then, he added, with a deep sigh, “But it won’t be quite as exciting.” No kidding. A chestnut colt was on the cusp of completing one of the most elusive feats in sports. There hasn’t been a Triple Crown winner since Affirmed, way back in the middle of the Carter administration. In the 34 years since then, a dozen horses have won the Kentucky Derby and the Preakness. Eleven of them lost at the Belmont — perhaps because of a jockey’s blunder, or maybe a freak injury in the middle of the race. Sometimes, another horse was just better. But never like this. I’ll Have Another didn’t even make the call to the post. “I really wanted him to compete,” said Dale Romans, the trainer for newly installed Belmont

O P I N I O N favorite Dullahan. “This was going to be a special race, one of the biggest races of our time. It’s just devastating.” There were losers galore on this day. There will undoubtedly be a much smaller crowd for the Belmont’s biggest event. NBC’s ratings are sure to take a huge hit after running strong through the first two legs of the Triple Crown. Horse racing missed out on a chance to boost its battered reputation and grim bottom line, which has been under siege for years from slot machines and blackjack tables. Back in the barns, the workers carried on with their chores. There was still feed to haul, hay to shovel, horses to wash. Out at the betting windows, the railbirds scanned their tip sheets. There were still races to pick, winnings to collect, tickets to shred. The sport will go on, but this sting will last a while. “It’s just a really sad day in our industry,” said Kiaran McLaughlin, trainer of 2006 Belmont winner Jazil. At a concession stand, one man glanced at his cellphone and shook his head. “First time it’s ever happened,” he said to a friend. Indeed, while two other horses dropped
out of the Belmont in the 1930s with injuries after winning the first two races of the Triple Crown, no one could ever remember such a scratch the day before the race. For I’ll Have Another, the trouble started when his handlers spotted some swelling in the left leg after Thursday’s regular morning workout. They crossed their fingers and hoped it was nothing serious. They sent him out for his final training session extra early Friday, about 5:30 a.m., with hardly anyone at the track. The horse galloped as though everything was OK. But, back at the barn, the swelling returned. An ultrasound machine was brought in. “That’s never a good sign,” Romans said. There was some fraying to the tendon, the telltale sign of impending tendinitis. While Bramlage said the injury was unlikely to cause a catastrophic breakdown in the race, there was little chance of I’ll Have Another coming up with the kick he would need to beat the rest of the field over the grueling 11⁄2-mile event, the longest test in the Triple Crown. The horse was barely into his retirement when the conspiracy theories began to swirl on the Internet — I’ll Have Another had
been pulled from the race because of a doping violation, a graceful way to bow out instead of being humiliated by a failed drug test. After all, this was a colt trained by someone dubiously nicknamed “Drug” O’Neill. The actual name is Doug O’Neill, and his horses have been nailed four times for elevated levels of total carbon dioxide, which is supposed to reduce fatigue and is usually associated with a banned mixture known as “milkshaking.” I’ll Have Another never failed a test, but his trainer will begin serving a 45-day suspension for his latest violation in a few weeks. O’Neill’s questionable tactics were supposedly among the reasons New York racing officials set up a separate barn for the Belmont Stakes. A dozen of them were herded into a single building, which led to crowded conditions, some uneasy animals, and plenty of grumbling from the trainers — Romans and D. Wayne Lukas being the most vocal. Romans didn’t let up after I’ll Have Another was scratched, wondering if the draconian attempts to ensure clean racing was what led to the career-ending injury. “This detention barn is bad,” he said. “I don’t know if it played a role in this, but we’re always going to wonder. Whoever came up with this idea should resign.” For the record, all the horses in the barn, including I’ll Have Another, have tested clean. So maybe we should at least put the drug theory to rest. I’ll Have Another will make one final trip to the track on Saturday, leading the post parade with his jockey, Mario Gutierrez, in the saddle. It will be a sad occasion on so many levels, a solemn reminder of yet another missed opportunity in a sport that just can’t seem to catch a break. Back in the barn area, a black cat slinked by. Figures.

Chesapeake shareholders reject board
B R I E F
Street has a good week
News that businesses are restocking their inventories faster than expected pushed stocks higher Friday, giving the Dow Jones industrial average its fourth straight day of gains. All the big stock indexes have risen more than 3 percent this week, although they’re still below the peaks they reached in the spring. Two stocks rose for every one that fell. Of the 10 industry groups in the S&P 500, energy was the only one to decline. Energy stocks fell as the price of crude oil declined.
By TIM TALLEY Associated Press
OKLAHOMA CITY — Chesapeake Energy Corp. shareholders rebuked the company’s board by withholding support for two directors up for re-election at Friday’s annual meeting. Both directors have tendered their resignations. Shareholders McClendon also withheld their support for Chesapeake’s executive compensation plan and peppered CEO Aubrey McClendon with questions about the corporate governance and accountability of the nation’s second largest producer of natural gas. Shares of the Oklahoma Citybased company are worth nearly 40 percent less than a year ago. And Chesapeake still has big spending plans even though it’s taking in less cash because of a plunge in natural gas prices. It also needs to sell off billions of dollars in assets to service a huge debt load. “Something is out-of-balance here at Chesapeake,” said shareholder Gerald Armstrong of Denver, whose proposal to reincorporate the company in Delaware passed with the support of 53 percent of the votes cast. Armstrong said the move would bring greater accountability to the company but that Chesapeake had resisted it. The proposal is nonbinding. McClendon and his company have been at the forefront of a boom in U.S. natural gas production. Just a few years ago it appeared the U.S. was running out of natural gas. Now the supply is so abundant that prices have dropped to levels last seen 10 years ago. That plunge has left Chesapeake short on cash to service the large amount of debt it accumulated while buying up land for drilling. To fill the gap, Chesapeake plans to sell as much as $14 billion of assets in 2012. On Friday, Chesapeake said it would sell its pipeline assets in three deals totaling $4 billion. Shares rose 2.8 percent Friday to $18.35 and gained 18 percent this week as analysts and investors welcomed the shake-up of the board. The shares are still down more than 17 percent for the year.

The parent company of Realogy Corp., which operates franchise real estate brokerage brands such as Century 21 and Coldwell Banker, plans an initial public offering of stock that looks to raise as much as $1 billion. Preliminary documents filed Friday by Domus Holdings Corp. do not say how many shares the company plans to offer or at what price. The Parsippany, N.J., company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering to reduce the debt on its books, which stood at $7.23 billion as of the end of March.
State wants to determine loss in Schilling deal By ERIKA NIEDOWSKI Associated Press
PROVIDENCE, R.I. — The state of Rhode Island is working to determine how much it stands to lose in a $75 million loan guarantee deal for former Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling’s video gaming company after its bankruptcy filing this week. Officials believe the state will be first in the line of creditors to 38 Studios, and that the company’s assets could be worth a substantial amount. But they don’t yet know how much taxpayers might have to pay to make good on a guarantee economic development officials once described as being well worth the risk.
German solar power shines
German utilities say solar power reached a new record level in May when it produced about 10 percent of the country’s overall electricity. The BDEW utility lobby group said Friday the production was up 40 percent on the year because of favorable weather conditions and a continuing boom in new solar panel installations. Germany decided after last year’s Fukushima disaster in Japan to phase out nuclear power by 2022. Renewable energies are set to generate 30 percent of the electricity by then, and 80 percent by 2050.

ation, reported owing more than $121.4 million and having assets of more than $335,000. 38 Studios’ biggest creditor is Rhode Island, to which it owes $115.9 million in debt from state-backed bonds, interest on the bonds and fees. Schilling, who also pitched for Baltimore, Houston, Philadelphia and Arizona and won the World Series three times, moved 38 Studios from Massachusetts to Providence in 2010 after the state’s economic development agency approved the $75 million loan guarantee. The company was supposed to bring hundreds of jobs and mean millions of dollars in tax revenue.
Federal and state authorities have launched probes into “all financial transactions” of 38 Studios, the head of the Rhode Island state police said Friday. Col. Steven O’Donnell said state police, the state attorney general, the U.S. attorney in Rhode Island and the FBI are investigating, but he didn’t elaborate. The U.S. attorney’s office confirmed the investigation but would not provide details. The Providence-based company filed for bankruptcy Thursday in Delaware. It owes $150.7 million and has assets of $21.7 million, according to court filings. In a separate bankruptcy filing, 38 Studios Baltimore, a sister oper-

One company will focus on North American grocery brands like Oscar Mayer and Velveeta and be called Kraft Foods Group Inc., with the symbol “KRFT.” Mondelez International Inc., which will focus on global snack brands, will trade under the symbol “MDLZ.” Kraft employs about 670 people at its offices in Hanover Industrial Estates, doing information technology, customer service, online sales support and financial accounting work.
Kraft spokesman Michael Mitchell said the company was impressed with the advertising and brandbuilding Nasdaq does on behalf of its member companies. He also noted that the listing fees were “considerably less” for Nasdaq. The transfer to the Nasdaq will take place June 26. The Northfield, Ill., company’s ticker will remain “KFT” until the company’s division. The two new companies created by the split will also be traded on the Nasdaq.

A cluster of showers is now heading in our direction from the Great Lakes and will be passing over Pennsylvania during the day today and into early tonight. There may be some thunder and at times the sun will shine. Tomorrow will be a warmer day with enough sunshine to raise temps above 80 and possibly “boil-up” a few more showers in the afternoon. Race fans heading out to Long Pond should keep the rain gear handy. The above normal trend in rainfall will continue next week with more rain possible on Tuesday and on Wednesday. - Tom Clark

How to display the American flag
By ALEXIA ELEJALDE-RUIZ Chicago Tribune
If you plan to let your patriotic colors fly this summer – Flag Day is Thursday – do right by Old Glory and display it with dignity — which is to say, not on your stars-and-stripes bikini. The U.S. Flag Code gives guidelines for properly displaying the American flag. The rules are purely advisory, and there’s no
enforcement or penalty for violating them, though there are some exceptions for the District of Columbia and states can make their own flag laws. 1. Whether hanging horizontally or vertically, the union should be uppermost and to the observer’s left (in a window, the observer is the person in the street). 2. On Memorial Day, the flag
should fly at half-staff until noon and then be hoisted to the peak. (When flying at half-staff, hoist the flag to the peak first before lowering it to half-staff; bring to the peak again before bringing it down for the day). 3. The flag should be displayed outside from sunrise to sunset only, unless it’s properly illuminated at night. 4. When displayed with other
national flags, all flags should be the same size and fly from separate staffs of the same height. 5. When displayed with other state, local or society flags, the U.S. flag should always be at the peak (if on the same halyard — the rope that hoists the flag); at the center and highest point (if See FLAG, Page 2C
ure, the calendar might say we still have 10 days until summer, but we know better. The bugs are here, so is the heat, and Curly Crème is open. What more do you need? The frolicky, flouncy season of dreams has arrived, and already I’m moaning. Pardon the Debbie Downer routine, but I have some complaints/questions, though I’m hoping you’ll see them as deep philosophical queries for which I could use assistance, in order that I – and anyone in similar predicaments – might truly bask in the beauty ahead. 1. Bugs. Where do YOU stand? I recently spent the weekend in a “no-kill house” in which a “no-mercy” guest also was present (and vocal). The divisive issue? Stinkbugs, those malodorous, malevolent little things with the seeming ability to penetrate glass and walls and “go forth and multiply” with gusto. Correction: They may be malodorous, but malevolent, my “no-kill” host maintains, is a bit extreme. In fact, she says, they are “quite compliant,” going pretty much wherever you direct them to go without fuss or fanfare. Somewhat neutral myself, I willingly enrolled in her nocharge, 15-second “how to free a stinkbug” course. When the one I released incorrectly, by dropping him off a tissue too high above ground – landed flat on his back, his little legs flailing as he struggled to turn himself over, I just had to turn away. And look directly into the eyes of Ms. No Mercy, who warned that, hey, he’d flip himself eventually, then simply return. With friends. (So maybe we should make dinner?) She had a point. Hard for me to say, given I haven’t encountered more than a here-and-there stinkbug in my own home, but every night three or four new moths do show up to taunt, and I have not shown mercy, I admit. Get a cat, I’m told. They love to snack on moths, and you can’t argue with the food-chain-based circle of life. Anymore than you can argue with the fish who eat the cute tadpoles in your backyard pond. So on to my next, related complaint: 2. Bug lights. I laughed out loud at a life-size advertisement in a grocery store. The depiction? Shiny, happy people enjoying dinner and drinks on a porch under that familiar, cozy, yellow haze emanating from the bulb of summer. The victuals were bug-free, the skin bite-free, and all looked right with everyone’s worlds. How much were these posers paid to pretend like this? Seriously, can someone tell me why, if bugs supposedly cannot see yellow, I have a full-on flying-critter court in session every night underneath the golden glow of my own “no-bug” light? And speaking of false advertising: 3. Weed blankets. I have a long, hefty one laid firmly under newer pavers. I also have stubborn green strands popping right through the center. Mercy, why? Because we’ve all been lied to, the same way we have by those shelter magazines that can make a heart ache every year about now. They show us gleaming white patios, brighter-than-bright umbrellas, unscarred furniture, immaculate grills, you name it. But outside my window? Ha. One measly day in the elements, and the patio’s filthy, the furniture dotted with tree or bird droppings – pick your pleasure – and the umbrella, if it’s not faded or torn, might even be gone entirely on a windy day. Off visiting the neighbors again. Maybe this is because I didn’t pay $5,000 for the outdoor seating in the magazine, which seems the going rate. (Sidenote: Another big fat WHY? Especially when patio furniture performs as it does?) Summer, you tease. Sometimes you just make me so mad I could stomp on a bug. Except my no-kill host told just told me a sweet story about two stinkbugs she let stay in her bathroom overnight. Why? Because they were up high in a far corner, staring into each other’s eyes and looking very much smitten. Morning came, and they hadn’t moved even a half-inch. Hey, maybe these pests are here for a reason? To teach us all to look on the bright side of life? To take the good with the bad but know where to focus? On our people, not our implements? Just a thought. Happy almost-summer. May you spend it snug as a bug high above a bathroom rug. Starry-eyed and in love.

in a cluster of staffs); and hoisted first and lowered last (if on adjacent flag poles). No other flag should be above it or to the flag’s own right. 6. From crossed staffs, the U.S. flag should be on the observer’s left, with its staff in front. 7. When marching, the flag should be carried on the
marching right, or, if there’s a line of flags, in front of the center of that line. 8. On a car, the flag staff should be fixed to the chassis or clamped to the right fender. 9. Wear a flag lapel pin over your heart. Folding the flag: Though the Flag Code does not specify how the flag should be folded, tradition dictates you end up with a triangle with only the blue union showing.

Repainting tin siding should be like repainting aluminum; spray is best Q: I have a home, built about 1950, that has tin siding. Can or should this siding be repainted (and how?), or is it best to remove it and install new siding, such as vinyl? A: I’ve seen a lot of evidence that tin siding can be repainted, although I haven’t found much information on how to do it. I had tin gutters — actually terne, a zinc/tin alloy — on my turn-of-the-20th-century former house. The experts recommended Tin-O-Lin, which I bought at a Philadelphia roofing supplier, a slow-drying linseed oil-based primer and finish coat recommended for spot priming exposed and rusted areas.

participatory as possible, presenting other opinions for dialogue’s sake. I knew running a few bits of microbiologist Myron Wentz’s new book a few weeks ago would generate comment, and reader Sam Goldwasser offered some. “Some of (Wentz’s) recommendations are either based on a flawed understanding of technology or are simply unrealistic,” Goldwasser wrote. Here’s one: “Modern compact fluorescent lamps have a very minuscule amount of mercury, and it doesn’t leak out while they are being used, only if

broken. And to suggest switching back to incandescent lamps is nutty. Incandescents are not only energy hogs (about four times the energy of a compact fluorescent lamp with similar light output), but the greater energy consumption means using more coal-fired power plants, and these end up producing mercury emissions.” “The suggestion to unplug is simply unrealistic for many modern appliances. Especially if electronics like audiovisual equipment are considered, as they may lose all their programming. And my electric stove doesn’t even have a plug!”

Nissan Altima is the ultimate
ets Japan’s fearsome Samurai warriors wore.
MARK PHELAN
The 2013 Nissan Altima’s features, value and efficiency should make it an equally fearsome foe for other midsize sedans.
WHEELS
Fuel-efficient and featureladen, the 2013 Nissan Altima shoots to the head of its class and lifts Nissan to new heights. The Altima competes with the Chevrolet Malibu, Chrysler 200, Ford Fusion, Honda Accord, Hyundai Sonata, Kia Optima, Toyota Camry and Volkswagen Passat. Prices for the front-wheel drive 2013 Altima start at $21,500 for a model with a 182-horsepower 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine and continuously variable transmission. Altimas powered by a 270horsepower V-6 start at $25,360. I tested a very wellequipped four-cylinder Altima 2.5 SL that cost $29,810. All prices exclude destination charges. The Altima goes on sale in July. Nissan sold coupe and hybrid versions of the previous Altima. Neither model is available as the new car launches, but it would be no surprise to see them join the model line over the next couple of years. The four-cylinder engine has plenty of perk. Over several hundred miles of highway, country and city driving, it proved more than capable in fast cruising, passing and traffic. Engine noise and vibration are noticeable under heavy acceleration, but not overly intrusive. The Altima’s new continuously variable transmission has 40 percent less friction and a wider range of ratios — about equivalent to a conventional automatic with eight gears — than the previous model. That contributes significantly to the car’s outstanding 38 mpg. EPA highway fuel economy rating. That’s 1 mpg better than the 2013 Chevrolet Malibu Eco and 2013 Ford Fusion 1.6-liter EcoBoost, which use special systems to maximize fuel economy. It’s a triumph that Nissan achieved 38 mpg without direct injection, batteries, turbocharging, diesel or any other costly technology.
——— 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA: —Type of vehicle: Front-wheel drive five-passenger midsize sedan —Rating: Four out of four stars —Reasons to buy: Fuel efficiency, features, performance —Shortcomings: Minor refinement issues —Base price, base model: $22,500 —Base price, test model: $28,050 —Price as tested: $29,810
The Altima’s EPA ratings — 27 mpg in city driving, 31 mpg in combined — also top comparable models of the 200, Accord, Camry, Fusion, Malibu, Optima, Passat and Sonata. In addition to the new CVT and numerous improvements to the engine, an electric-hydraulic power steering system contributes to the Altima’s fuel economy. With a base curb weight of 3,187 pounds, the Altima is also lighter than its competitors. That light weight also contributes to the Altima’s sporty and responsive handling. The steering is quick and direct, with good oncenter feel. The speed variable system gives appropriate assist at low speed and on the highway. The brakes have plenty of power and good pedal feel for easy modulation. A cleverly designed new rear suspension holds the road in fast maneuvers and absorbs bumps well. The interior has plenty of room for front and rear passengers. The 15.4 cubic-foot trunk is bigger

than all the competitors but the Fusion and Passat. The lid opens wide for easy loading of large objects. The front seat has plenty of storage bins and cubbies. The car I tested had excellent voice recognition for phone and navigation. The quality of hands-free phone calls was good, as was control of both a wired iPod and streaming audio from my iPhone. Other features include blind-spot, lane-departure and rear moving-object alerts. The blindspot worked well, except for a couple of warnings when the lane next to me was empty. I found the lanedeparture warning a bit too sensitive. It’s not adjustable, so I turned it off. Moving-object detection requires some explanation. A digital camera in the trunk lid has a nearly 180-degree field of vision and can recognize moving objects. If it senses something behind or to your side moving — a car coming down the row in a parking lot or a kid chasing a ball, for instance — a warning sounds.

Unlike ultrasonic backup assist, it does not recognize stationary objects. You can’t just back up and expect it to warn you about the car parked behind you. Most automakers use several sensors to provide blind-spot, lane-departure and rear-collision warning. The Altima offers all three features with a single rearfacing camera and clever software programming. With a $29,810 sticker price, it should have memory for the driver’s seat and mirror settings, but that’s about the only feature the car I tested lacked. Wind and road noise are minimal, and the interior materials and fits were good. The controls are easy to use, with soft surfaces at most touch points. The instrument panel has big, clear gauges and a configurable display that shows navigation, trip computer, audio or other features. The 2013 Altima is slightly lower, longer and wider than the outgoing car. Its sleek profile is complemented by a trapezoidal grille Nissan says was inspired by the angular, shoulder-padded jack-
