SCRANTON A federal grand jury on Tues-
day indicted attorney Anthony Lupas on five
counts of mail fraud, alleging he stole $246,080
from a client through a bogus
investment scheme.
The charges come less than
one month after Lupas attor-
ney, WilliamRuzzo, filed court
documents indicating Lupas is
attempting to negotiate a plea
agreement with prosecutors.
The indictment alleges that
on three occasions between
June 2006 and September 2009, Lupas enticed a
client to give him money under the premise it
would be invested in a trust fund that would pay
7 percent tax-free interest.
In reality, there was no trust fund and Lupas
used the money for his personal gain. In order to
conceal thescheme, Lupas sent theclient, whois
not identified, interest payments he claimed
the money had earned.
The indictment lists only one victim, but at-
torneys represent dozens of other people who al-
lege they were defrauded out of millions of dol-

The state Supreme Court onTuesday
declinedtohear Luzerne County Proth-
onotary Carolee Medico Olenginskis
appeal of a court ruling that upheld the
elimination of her office, ending her
fight to keep the office as an elected po-
sition under the coun-
tyshomerulecharter.
The court, without
comment, denied
Olenginskis appeal of
a June 2010 Common-
wealth Court ruling
that rejectedher argu-
ment that her office
could not be eliminated under home
rule because it was part of the judicial
system.
Medico Olenginski said she does not
believe there are any viable appeal op-
tions left.
Its unfortunate, but thats the way it
is, she said.
The prothontarys office became part
of the Division of Judicial Services and
Records when home rule went into ef-

BAGRAMAIRFIELD, Afghan-
istan On a swift, secretive trip
tothewar zone, President Barack
Obama declared Tuesday night
that after years of sacrifice the
U.S. combat role in Afghanistan
is winding down just as it has al-
ready ended in Iraq. We can see
the light of a newday on the hori-
zon, he said on the anniversary
of Osama bin Ladens death and
in the midst of his own re-elec-
tion campaign.
Our goal is to destroy al-Qai-
da, and we are on a path to do ex-
actly that, Obama said in an un-
usual speech to America broad-
cast from an air base halfway
around the world.
He spoke after signing an
agreement with Afghan Presi-
dent Hamid Karzai setting post-
war promises and expectations.
With two armored troop carriers
as a backdrop, Obama made his
remarks in the midst of his en-
deavor to win re-election as U.S.
president and commander in
chief.
The president landed in Ba-
gram in darkness, and his heli-
copter roared to Kabul for the
meeting with Karzai, under close
guard, with only the outlines of
the nearby mountains visible.
Later, back at the base, he was
surrounded by U.S. troops, shak-
ing every hand. He ended his
Obama signs pact with Karzai, sees light of new day
Deal allows U.S. to keep
troops in Afghanistan to train
forces and target al-Qaida.

Luzerne County officials are
considering a newcomputer soft-
ware programfor all financial and
payroll records.
Four proposals were submitted
in response to a public advertise-
ment by Mondays deadline, said
county Interim Budget/Finance
Chief Vic Mazziotti.
The existing software provid-
er, Minnesota-based ACS Enter-
prise Solutions, did not submit a
proposal, Mazziotti said. Instead,
the company has requested the
opportunity to negotiate a new
contract before the current one
expires at the end of this year.
Mazziotti said the county
should act within 45 to 60 days if
vendors will be changed because
it will take months to convert re-
cords to a new system.
Three companies submitted
proposals, Mazziotti said: New
World Systems, Troy, Mich.; Sun-
Gard Public Sector, Lake Mary,
Fla.; and Tyler Technologies,
Maine.
The City of Pittsburgh and Al-
legheny County also submitted a
proposal because they have a
joint computer data center that
provides services to other gov-
ernment entities, he said.
County officials must analyze
the proposals and fee options be-
fore presenting a cost compari-
son report, Mazziotti said.
A team of administrators will
meet Thursday to evaluate the
proposals and eventually make a
recommendation to county Man-
ager Robert Lawton, he said.
Lawton must seek county
council approval for the software
contract because it would exceed
$25,000 next year.
ACS is paid $28,000 per month
to provide human resources and
financial software.
The companys contract for
county time clock support wont
expire for several years and was
not part of the proposal, Mazziot-
ti said. The company received
$273,765 and a $5,000 monthly
fee to assist in time clock record
conversion and data hosting.
All entities that submitted pro-
posals handle software for other
Pennsylvania counties, he said.
New World and Tyler each have
at least five county clients in the
state, he said.
ACS has been providing soft-
ware to the county since 2004,
when commissioners decided it
was time to stop relying on paper
records. The late former county
controller Steve Flood had
pushed for a financial software
programsince 2002, likening em-
ployees to the Charles Dickens
character Bob Cratchit with their
thick ledgers filled out by hand.
Mazziotti said a complicated
record conversion will be re-
quired, regardless of whether the
vendors change, because hun-
dreds of spending categories
must be realigned under the new
home rule government depart-
ment structure.

Luzerne County Council
members asked the adminis-
tration questions about the
arbitration process at Tues-
days work session because
the expired detective con-
tract will head to binding ar-
bitration if an agreement isnt
reached.
County Human Resources
Director Andrew Check said
arbitration is an option for
unions that cant strike. The
county and union would each
appoint a representative, and
those two would then choose
a neutral arbitrator from a list
of Pennsylvania arbitrators
using a process of elimina-
tion, he said.
The wages of counterparts
elsewhere are typically con-
sidered in arbi-
tration, he
said. Govern-
ing bodies of-
ten argue they
cant afford all
union re-
quests, but
that conten-
tion is a wild card that may
not be accepted by the neutral
arbitrator, he said.
Councilman Harry Haas
asked whether arbitrators typi-
cally favor unions or employ-
ers, and Check said labor his-
torically benefits.
Councilman Rick Williams
asked the costs of binding arbi-
tration. Check said it usually
ranges from $5,000 to $25,000.
The bill increases when parties
disagree on multiple issues be-
cause more arbitration sessions
are required, possibly involving
witnesses, he said.
County Manager Robert
Lawton, the lead contract nego-
tiator under home rule, has not
presented a proposed detective
contract, saying he needed
more time. Council must ap-
prove all collective bargaining
agreements.
A contract with the court-re-
lated union also expired Dec.
31. The union had announced
plans in January to seek bind-
ing arbitration, but union repre-
sentatives have been meeting
with the administration to dis-
cuss options.
In other business, county
council agreed to form a com-
mittee to revise the lengthy ad-
ministrative code presented by
Lawton.
Lawton said he is working on
a revised version, based in part
on feedback from home rule
transition committee mem-
bers, but his update wont be
ready for at least two weeks.
Council members said they
dont want to wait to start their
review because they must
adopt the code by June 23. Law-
ton said he will attend commit-
tee meetings to discuss his
planned revisions.
Council also publicly inter-
viewed applicants for vacant
seats on the Children and Youth
Services Advisory Board.
Council members agreed to
create a policy formalizing
their practice of publicly inter-
viewing applicants for vacant
board, authority and commis-
sion seats and posting informa-
tion about these entities on the
county website.

Members learn about
process that may be used to

HAZLETON
Fed, state aid lands here
T
he Hazleton Municipal Airport is
among 27 airports across Penn-
sylvania receiving a share of a $12.6
million investment of federal and state
funds.
The state portion of funding
$805,547 from PennDOTs aviation
development program comes from
the states jet fuel tax and leverages
more than $743,047 in local matching
funds.
The Federal Aviation Adminis-
tration is providing $11.8 million in
grants through the block grant pro-
gram, which is funded through taxes
collected nationally on airline tickets,
freight waybills, international depar-
ture fees, and the sale of aviation fuel.
Airports receive up to 95 percent of
eligible project costs for projects in-
cluded in Pennsylvanias 12-year trans-
portation program.
Hazleton Airport is receiving
$223,408 to design a runway safety
area improvement project and an
additional $93,750 in state Aviation
Development Program funds to ac-
quire aircraft refueling and mainte-
nance equipment.
HARRISBURG
Panel studies racing fund
The state Senate Democratic Policy
Committee will hold a hearing today
to examine the economic impact of
Gov. Tom Corbetts
proposal to shift $72
million a year from
the Race Horse
Development Fund.
The committee
will hear from own-
ers and breeders
who have used the
fund, derived from
casino gaming proceeds, to increase
purses and revive Pennsylvanias rac-
ing industry. The public hearing will
begin at 9 a.m. in the North Office
Building in Harrisburg.
Sen. John Yudichak, D-Plymouth
Township, said the proposal does not
make any sense to him.
Job creation, he said, needs to be a
top priority in Pennsylvania. Shifting
money from what he called proven
job creators goes against that priority.

House blaze ruled arson
A state police deputy fire marshal
ruled a fire that heavily damaged two
houses on Sunday was intentionally
set.
Firefighters from several municipal-

house at 28 S. Canal St. The house has
been vacant since a flood in June
2006.
The fire spread to an adjacent occu-
pied house at 26 S. Canal St. that was
undergoing renovations due to dam-
age in the flood in September.
An investigation determined the fire
originated on a rear porch at the va-
cant house.

EXETER Borough Coun-
cilman Joseph Esposito said
Tuesday night the borough had
an estimated outstanding debt
of $200,000.
Were not in good financial
shape, said Esposito, noting
the borough was hard at work
developing a plan that would
reduce debt without undue
hardshiponboroughresidents.
We simply ask that the bor-
ough acts to improve our finan-
cial health in the long term,
said resident Len Coleman.
We ask that they act in a rea-
sonable manner.
Mary Pat Coleman ad-
dressed the board, saying
council members had counted
their chickens before they
hatched, referring to the Wal-
mart Super Center council had
anticipated moving to Wyom-
ing Avenue in that borough.
That business would have gen-
erated a sizable amount of real
estate and earned income tax-
es, and fees.
Plans for the Walmart super
store failed, however, when the
company was unwilling to
comply with PennDOT re-
quirements for a highway occu-
pancy permit, resulting ina siz-
able shortfall to the borough.
Council member Joseph Pi-
zano warned that council need-
ed to manage its finances in a
way that would ensure the pay-
ment of necessary services, in-
cluding police and fire staff.
He was assured by Esposito
that these services would be
funded and would continue
without interruption.
Borough Solicitor Raymond
Hassey reminded council two
conflicting ordinances re-
mained on borough books, one
which was geared toward al-
lowing Wal-Mart to build with-
in the borough and the other
which placed restrictions on
such development, including
lighting, noise and setbacks.
He said that one of the ordi-
nances needed to be rescinded
to avoid any further conflict or
possible litigation.
The borough planning com-
mission will meet May 9 at 7
p.m. Jack Varaly, a planner re-
tained by the borough, will be
present to discuss and prepare
revisions to the ordinances.

WILKES-BARRE Asmall but enthu-
siastic group of 99-percenters took con-
trol of Wilkes-Barres Public Square
Tuesday in association with the Occupy
movements May Day protests.
Holding signs bearing slogans such as
Wall Street Sold Out Main Street and
We are the 99 percent, hear us roar
there were signs for everyone about a
dozen protesters elicited frequent honks
from cars circling the square during the
evening event.
The protest coincided with Interna-
tional Workers Day, alsocalledMayDay,
an international holiday that celebrates
labor andleft-wingmovementsonMay1.
This year the Occupy movement encour-
aged workers and students to declare a
general strike on the day and staged pro-
tests in cities around the country.
Were just trying to drawattention to
May Day, which is no work, no school,
its just a day without the 99 percent,
saidJohnDoneghy of Scranton, a protes-
ter at the Wilkes-Barre rally. I dont
think the world realizes, without its
workers, it wouldnt go anywhere.

with that.

WILKES-BARRE Daniel Smith tes-
tified he was there the night Alicia
Weaver was shot and killed in a wooded
area in Foster Township.
He saidhe heardshots being firedand
saw Weaver, 20, of Hazleton, fall to the
ground on Nov. 13,
2010.
Smith, of Brooklyn,
N.Y., testified in the
second day of Benja-
min Tyrell West-
brooks trial on homi-
cide charges relating
to Weavers death.
A jury of eight wom-
en and six men was selected Monday to
hear the case. Testimony will continue
this morning.
Smith was the first witness called by
prosecutors to testify Tuesday. He said
Weaver and Westbrooks, 22, of West Ha-
zleton, had been arguing about money
she allegedly owed him.
Westbrooks, other witnesses testified
Tuesday, was Weavers pimp and or-
dered her to do a prostitution job to re-
pay money to Westbrooks.
But instead of Westbrooks driving
Weaver, Smith and Brandon Crum to a
hotel where they were to drop her off,
Westbrooks drove to a dirt road in a
wooded area near Eckley Miners Vil-
lage, where Weaver was shot and killed.
Smith testified that after the shoot-
ing, the men drove to Brooklyn, N.Y.,
and that he didnt contact the police.
Smith said he was scared, had just
seen someone murdered and feared
something similar would happen to
him.
Westbrooks, Smith said, had a previ-
ous dispute with him in which West-
brooks stabbed him in the face with a
screwdriver.
Smithsaidneither he nor Crumkilled
Weaver.
In his testimony for the prosecution,
Christopher Gonzalez said he and
Weaver were standing outside the bar-
bershop where he works when two men
approached Weaver. He identified one
as Tears, Westbrooks nickname.
Gonzalez said Tears asked Weaver
for his bread and appeared angry.
Weaver, Gonzalez said, seemed scared
to say the least.
Gonzalez and Weaver had dated for a
number of months beginning in early
2010, he testified. He said he called
Weaver after she left withWestbrooks to
check on her.
Weaver answered the phone, Gonza-
lez said, but said she couldnt talk and
hung up.
Dominique Frazier, Weavers boy-
friend at the time she was killed, testi-
fied Tuesday he got a text message
around 1:42 p.m. from Weaver saying,

WILKES-BARRE Ro-
seanne Barr for president?
Shes inthe runningfor the
Green Party nomination,
and on Saturday local party
members can gather in what
long-time locals know as
the Sophia Room at the
restaurant in Boscovs base-
ment to help decide if the
acerbic comic heads the No-
vember party ticket.
Our idea is to encourage
people to shop, eat and bank
downtown, Green Party
State Chairman Carl Roma-
nelli of Wilkes-Barre said.
Barred by law from ap-
pearing on the primary bal-
lot, the Green Party will pick
its presidential candidate
this year through regional
caucuses, some of which
have already been held, in-
cluding in Philadelphia, Ro-
manelli said.
Three caucuses are sched-
uled in Northeastern Penn-
sylvania: May 5 at the Sophia
Room in Boscovs basement
diner on the Franklin
Street side of the venerable
downtown Wilkes-Barre
store; May 6 at the Hotel
Wayne, 1202 MainSt, Hones-
dale; and May 7 at the Miller
Library of Keystone College
in LaPlume.
Along with Barr, best
known for her hit ABC sit-
com, Roseanne, which ran
from 1988 through 1997,
those registered with the
GreenParty canvote for Bos-
ton physician Jill Stein and
San Diego Air Quality spe-
cialist Kent Mesplay.
The public is welcome, but
only those registered in the
Green Party can vote. The
caucus runs from1 to 4 p.m.,
with a presentation around
1:30 On Behalf of Our Three
Presidential Candidates,
but those who need to leave
early or arrive late can still
vote, Romanelli said.
The Sophia room so
dubbed because iconic Ital-
ian actress Sophia Loren is
said to have eaten there
may seem like a small venue
for a party that, according to
Romanelli, has 435 regis-
tered voters in Luzerne
County. He concedes the
turnouts are usually 20 to
30, sadly.
Andhe concededthe party
has no realistic chance to put
a nominee in the White
House this year.
To be frank, Id be silly
and quite deluded if I
thought Jill Steinor Rosanne
Barr, who are really the two

WILKES-BARRE A partial-
ly nude man charged with firing
a rifle into an occupied Pittston
Township building can have
firearms charges reinstated
against him, a judge decided
Tuesday.
A criminal procedure rule
that is only two paragraphs al-
lows the Luzerne County Dis-
trict Attorneys Office to break a
negotiated plea deal reached
with defendants at preliminary
hearings, Luzerne County
Judge William Amesbury ruled.
Amesbury ruled in the case
against Michael Kozloski, 28,
whose attorneys, Jonathan Ur-
siak and Joseph Yeager, wanted
a judge to enforce an agreement
Assistant District Attorney
Mark Makowski made at a pre-
liminary hearing on Jan. 20.
Makowski, who no longer
works in the district attorneys
office, withdrewfour firearmof-
fenses against Kozloski in ex-
change for Kozloski pleading
guilty to aggravated assault.
Pittston Township police al-
lege a partially nude Kozloski
fired a round froma rifle into an
occupied building on East Oak
Street on Jan. 6, according to
the criminal complaint.
Shortly after the preliminary
hearing, First Assistant District
Attorney Sam Sanguedolce dis-
approved the agreement and in-
structed township police to re-
file all charges against Kozloski.
Police refilled the charges
against Kozloski on March 2. A
preliminary hearing is sched-
uled on May 21 before District
Judge Diana Malast in Plains
Township.
Sanguedolce timely filed the
Notice of Disapproval before
the formal information, which
lists the charges to be settled in
the court of common pleas, was
filed against Kozloski, accord-
ing to court records.
Amesbury praised Ursiak for
making a compelling argu-
ment, addingthat Rule 561per-
mits the district attorney to re-
view plea deals reached at pre-
liminary hearings.
It usually takes four to six
weeks when the formal informa-
tion is filed against a defendant
after a preliminary hearing.
District Attorney Stefanie Sa-
lavantis said she was pleased
with the ruling.
Ursiak said he will meet with
Kozloski before deciding if an
appeal is warranted.

WILKES-BARRE A fleet of
phone and Internet repair trucks;
an 18-wheel truck owner-oper-
ator; a county transportation au-
thority.
These are some of the entities
that could save money and re-
duce emissions by converting
their vehicles to natural gas, ac-
cording to hotel owner Gus Ge-
netti and engineering firm Bor-
ton-Lawson.
The pair, in conjunction with
the Greater Wilkes-Barre Cham-
ber of Commerce, will host an
educational seminar Friday on
the benefits of converting fleet
vehicles to run on natural gas at
Genetti Hotel and Conference
Center.
The invitation-only event will
feature presentations by Cynthia
Williams of the Ford Motor Co.,
who will talk about the future of
natural gas vehicles, and Plains
Township Commissioner Jerry
Yozwiak, who will address how
his townshipwonastategrant for
a natural-gas refueling station
and gas-powered garbage truck.
Representatives of Chesa-
peake Energy, Corning Natural
Gas, UGI Utilities andPennState
University also will speak, and
the event will conclude with a
panel discussion. More than 300
business and local and state offi-
cials have been invited, Borton-
Lawson spokeswoman Chelsey
Coslett said.
Coslett said the conferences
intent is to expose local business-
es to the economic benefits of
converting trucks and fleet vehi-
cles to run on natural gas and
show them what programs are
available to help them make the
switch.
The main thing is that they
walk away with the knowledge
and desire to go back to their
places of work and set a deadline,
or look into converting their fleet
vehicles to use natural gas, Cos-
lett said.
The conference was the brain
child of Genetti, a proponent of
natural gas vehicles.
It seems like theres no ques-
tion it would be beneficial to be
using domestic fuel rather than
having to buy oil from people
who dont like us, Genetti said.
The lower cost of natural gas
can make the price of conversion
worthwhile very quickly in high-
mileage fleet vehicles, Genetti
said.
Natural gas costs the equiva-
lent of about $2 per gallon, com-
pared to more than $3.50 a gallon
for gasoline andmore than$4 per
gallon for diesel.
Acommercial truckdriver buy-
ing a $26,000 liquid natural gas
conversion kit will make up the
cost of conversion in an average
of seven months, Genetti said,
adding that there are currently
more than250 natural gas fueling
stations operating or under con-
struction in the United States,
most along major interstates.
Genetti said he was inspired to
host the seminar in Wilkes-Barre
after attending a similar gather-
ing in Williamsport, Lycoming
County, last year. That munici-
pality recently won $400,000 in
grants to build a natural gas fuel-
ing station and run public buses
on natural gas. He thinks Lu-
zerne County is ready for natural
gas vehicles as well.
Last year Williamsport and
Lycoming County werent ready
for it, andwithina couplemonths
nowtheyll have natural gas vehi-
cles, a natural gas depot, Genetti
said.

card at Sams Club for $3,706 in

WILKES-BARRE A county
judge last month denied the re-
quest of a local businessman to
delay a May 14 trial date in a case
where he sued a California man
and the Citizens Voice newspa-
per, saying the paper printed
defamatory statements about
him.
Judge William Amesbury de-
nied the request for the contin-
uance, requested by Thom Gre-
cos attorney, Megan Maguire. She
had requested a brief continuance
to better prepare for the trial since
she had recently been appointed
to the case.
Named as defendants in the
suit are Michael Leslie Bernback;
the Citizens Voice and its owner,
the Scranton Times; The Times
Partners; owners of the Times
Partners; Shamrock Communi-
cations; Voice reporter James
Conmy; and its editorial page
editor, Lisa Napersky.
According to the lawsuit, the
newspaper in 2004 printed an
article stating Greco paid Bern-
back nearly $445,000 in a lawsuit.
Bernback sued Greco after the
pairs business partnership at the
Harveys Lake Amphitheater, and
then the Montage Mountain
Amphitheater had dissolved. The
story also contained statements
from Bernback. And a letter to
the editor written by Bernback
was later printed in the Voice.
Greco said the article and letter
wrongly imply Greco fraudulently
deceived Bernback, even though
the court ruling indicated Greco
breached a contract. Greco said
the article and letter contained
false statements that were printed
with the intent to hamper his
reputation in the community. He
is seeking more than $50,000.

REYNOLDSBURG, OHIO
Woman to get back animals
S
tate officials will return five surviv-
ing exotic animals to a woman
whose husband released dozens of wild
creatures before committing suicide.
The Ohio Department of Agriculture
announced the decision Monday at an
agency hearing in which the state was
to defend its authority to quarantine
the animals two leopards, two pri-
mates and a bear on suspicion of
infectious diseases.
A spokeswoman for the agency said
that the state had exhausted its author-
ity in the case and that the states agri-
culture director would lift the quaran-
tine order that was placed on the ani-
mals in October. Medical results re-
leased last week showed all five
animals are free of the dangerously
contagious or infectious diseases for
which they were tested.
That means the animals can be re-
turned to Marian Thompson, of Zanes-
ville, though its unclear when. Once
the animals are returned to Thompson,
nothing in Ohio law allows state offi-
cials to check on their welfare or re-
quire improvements to conditions in
which they are kept, Pitchford said.
DES MOINES, IOWA
He tried to autopsy JFK
In the turbulent hours following
President John F. Kennedys assassina-
tion, many were uncertain about what
to do, but medical examiner Earl Rose
knew one thing: The shooting hap-
pened in Dallas, and it was his job to
do an autopsy on anyone slain in the
city.
Rose stood in a doorway at the hospi-
tal where Kennedys body was taken on
Nov. 22, 1963, in a vain attempt to
block Kennedys aides as they removed
his coffin. The Secret Service and first
lady Jacqueline Kennedy prevailed, and
the presidents body was flown to Be-
thesda Naval Hospital, where an au-
topsy was done by pathologists James
Humes and Thornton Boswell. Their
findings have been used to support an
array of conspiracy theories about
Kennedys death.
Rose, who died Tuesday at age 85,
believed many of those theories
wouldnt have gained traction if he had
been able to do his job.
BURABURI, INDIA
Ferry capsizes; toll at 103
Rescuers on Tuesday had recovered
103 bodies from a turbulent northeast-

capsized, saying they feared that doz-
ens of others had been swept by the
current to neighboring Bangladesh.
The overloaded ferry overturned and
broke into two pieces in stormy weath-
er late Monday. About 100 people were
still missing Tuesday evening.
Abdul Mazid, a local villager, was
among grieving relatives and survivors
gathered on the banks of the Brah-
maputra River in Assam state.
He had rushed there soon after the
boat ferrying about 350 people
including his sister capsized.

The U.N. peacekeeping chief said
Tuesday that U.N. military observers in
Syria are reporting cease-fire violations
from the government and opposition
and he demanded an immediate halt to
all violence.
Herve Ladsous refused to say which
side was responsible for the most vio-
lations. But he said the unarmed ob-
servers have documented a number of
Syrian heavy weapons deployed in

is weeks away.
The comment by Parliament Chief Ri-
cardo Alarcon has residents, exiles and
policymakers abuzz with speculation
that the much-hated exit visa could be a
thing of the past, even if Raul Castros
government continues to limit the travel
of doctors, scientists, military personnel
and others in sensitive roles to prevent a
brain drain.
Other top Cuban officials have cau-
tioned against over-excitement, leaving
islanders and Cuba experts to wonder
howfar Havanas leaders arewillingtogo.
In the past 18 months, Castro has re-
moved prohibitions on some private en-
terprise, legalized real estate and car
sales, and allowed compatriots to hire
employees, ideas that were long anathe-
ma to the governments Marxist under-
pinnings.
Scrapping travel controls could be an
even bigger step, at least symbolically,
and carries enormous economic, social
and political risk.
Even half measures such as ending
limits on how long Cubans can live
abroad or cutting the staggeringly high
fees for the exit visa that Cubans must ob-
tain just to leave the country would be
significant.
It would be a big
step forward, said Phi-
lip Peters, a Cuba ex-
pert at the Virginia-
based Lexington Insti-
tute. If Cuba ends the
restrictions on its own
citizens travel, that
means the only travel restrictions that
wouldremaininplace wouldbe those the
United States imposes on its citizens.
The move would open the door to in-
creased emigration and make it easier for
Cubans overseas to avoid forfeiting their
residency rights, a fate that has befallen
waves of exiles since the 1959 revolution.
It could also bolster the number of Cu-
bans who travel abroad for work, increas-
ing earnings sent home in the short term
and, ultimately, investment by a new
moneyed class.
Is free travel in Cubas future?
Exit visa could be thing of past

HARRISBURG -- Pennsylva-
nias tough new voter identifica-
tion law was challenged in court
Tuesday by 10 registered voters,
including some who say they are
unable to get the kind of ID now
required and one woman who
said she had to pay for one de-
spite the laws promise of a free
photo ID.
The lawsuit,
filed in the
states Com-
monwealth
Court, said the
law violates the
state constitu-
tions free and
equal elec-
tions clause
and another
clause that es-
tablishes quali-
fications tovote
in Pennsylva-
nia.
Many other-
wise qualified
voters will face
great difficulty
or be unable to
obtain the nec-
essary ID and
will therefore
be disenfran-
chised in the
upcoming gen-
eral election
and future elec-
tions, the suit
said. As a re-
sult, far from protecting the in-
tegrity of Pennsylvania elections,
the photo IDlawwill lead to elec-
tions that are no longer free and
equal.
The lawsuit seeks an injunc-
tionthat halts the enforcement of
the lawanddocuments examples
of people having a hard time get-
ting the free photo ID that the
state promises under the law.
Lawyers fromthe American Civil
Liberties Union and the Public
Interest Law Center of Philadel-
phia are helping represent the
plaintiffs.
Gov. Tom Corbett signed the
bill March 14 one of the na-
tions toughest voter ID laws
after it passed the GOP-con-
trolled state Legislature over the
objections of Democrats, the
AARP, the National Association
for the Advancement of Colored
People, labor unions and good-
government groups.
Opponents of the law call it a
throwback to the now-unconsti-
tutional poll taxes and literacy
tests designed to discriminate
against poor and minority voters.

MADRID On the front
lines of the worlds May Day
protests this year, along with
the traditional chants, ban-
ners and marches, a gamut of
emotions flowed through the
crowds: Anger. Fear. Elation.
Despair.
With Europes unemployed
denouncing austerity mea-
sures, Asias laborers demand-
ing higher salaries and U.S.
protesters condemning Wall
Street, Tuesdays demonstra-
tions by hundreds of thou-
sands were less a celebration
of workers rights than a fu-
rious venting over spending
cuts, tax hikes and soaring un-
employment.
The protests came just days
ahead of key elections in
Greece and France, whose
leaders have acutely felt pop-
ular anger over policies many
feel are strangling any hopes
of economic recovery. The ral-
lies reflected deep pessimism
in Spain, dealing with a fragile
economy is in the cross-hairs
of the European debt crisis.
Yet optimism and national
businesses to shut down for
not observing calls for a gen-
eral strike. Police in riot gear
faced dozens of Occupy activ-
ists marching in front of a
Bank of America in New York
City, chanting Bank of Amer-
ica. Bad for America.
InFrance, tens of thousands
of workers, leftists and union
leaders marked May Day with
glee, hoping that a presiden-
tial runoff vote Sunday will
put a Socialist Francois
Hollande at the helm for
the first time since1988. Many
voters fear Sarkozy will erode
Frances welfare and worker
protections, and see him as
too friendly with the rich.
pride emerged too. More than
100,000 turned out in Russia
for May Day rallies that cele-
brated Vladimir Putins gov-
ernment. And tens of thou-
sands of workers rallied with
joy in France, hoping this
wouldbe the last weekof Pres-
ident Nicolas Sarkozys con-
servative leadership.
In the U.S., protesters lined
major financial institutions in
the countrys most high-pro-
file Occupy Wall Street rallies

testing the gap between the
superrich and poor came
down in the fall. Crowds

LONDONAcommittee of
British lawmakers called Rup-
ert Murdoch unfit to run his
global media empire because of
the phone hacking scandal
born of his defunct News of the
World newspaper.
The ruling Tuesday against
Murdoch, his son James -- a for-
mer executive chairman of
News Corp.s U.K. newspaper
division -- and three of their ex-
ecutives could jeopardize Mur-
dochs control of a major broad-
caster, British Sky Broadcast-
ing.
Parliaments Culture, Media
and Sport committee, which
scrutinizes the standards of
Britains press and sports au-
thorities, began an inquiry
amid disclosures about wide-
spread tabloid hacking of voice
mail, concerns over bribes paid
topolice for scoops, andpolitic-
ians who may have over-
stepped the bounds by cozying
up to the Murdoch empire.
Britains broadcasting regu-
lator Ofcom acknowledged it
was studying the report.O-
fcom, which decides if broad-
casters in the U.K. are fit and
proper to hold a license,
launched an inquiry last year
into British Sky Broadcasting.
If the regulator was to find
that News Corp. fails the test, it
couldbe forcedto divest part of
its 39 percent stake, so it no
longer held a controlling inter-
est in the British broadcaster.
British law offers no legal
definition of what constitutes a
fit and proper person, mean-
ing that Ofcom must use its
judgment in deciding whether
executives should be trusted to
hold a broadcasting license.
Analysts say that likely leaves
any Ofcom decision open to le-
gal challenges in the courts.

ATLANTA As he winds
down his presidential campaign,
Newt Gingrich faces a new chal-
lenge: reinventing himself politi-
cally yet again.
Gingrich reinvented the Re-
publican Party in the House in
1994, leading the GOP to its first
majority in 40 years and becom-
ing speaker. Four years later, after
Republicans pushed him out of
House leadership and he re-
signed, he reinventedhimself as a
Republicanelder focusedonwhat
he termed big ideas health
care, energy and space explora-
tion and as an able fundraiser
for his political advocacy group.
What could follow a run for
president that sawGingrich lead-
ing at times in national opinion
polls?
I would think that this will be
his last run for president, said
Sue Everhart, chairwoman of Ge-
orgias Republican Party, a state
Gingrich represented in Con-
gress andwhere he wonone of his
two primary victories. There are
plenty of other places that he
could be helpful.
Several other Republican lead-
ers said they expected this race to
be Gingrichs last for the presi-
dency. He had contemplated a
run in 2008 but eventually decid-
ed against it. However, Gingrich
spokesman R.C. Hammond said
it was too early to discuss what
Gingrich might do in the future.
Politics is one of those funny
businesses where people end up
deciding at the end, not the pun-
dits, Hammond said. Newt Gin-
grich has spent his entire career
proving pundits wrong. Im sure
hell be happy to do so again.
A second campaign could
prove even more daunting, espe-
cially when potential supporters
compare his shaky campaign per-
formance with the advantages he
enjoyed at the beginning na-
tional political experience, fun-
draisingclout anda deepnetwork
of political contacts.
Gingrichneededtocourt social
conservatives
but was
weighed down
with baggage
that includes
three marriages
and an ac-
knowledge-
ment of infideli-
ty. He had been reprimanded by
Congress after an ethics probe. A
consummate insider, he tried to
run as an anti-establishment can-
didate.
The campaign was rocky from
the start. After a confusing is-he-
in-or-not campaign announce-
ment, Gingrich went on national
TV and criticized Republican
Rep. Paul Ryans Medicare pro-
posal, which was popular among
the partys conservative base. Not
long after, many of Gingrichs top
campaign staffers quit over dis-
agreements on strategy and fi-
nances, a periodthat Gingrichlat-
er described as painful.
And yet the former Georgia
congressman bounced back with
the help of strong debate per-
formances, winning the South
Carolina primary and Georgias a
few weeks later. He hoped to win
other states in the Deep South,
but it never happened. Former
Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santo-
rumdrewaway conservative sup-
port and front-runner Mitt Rom-
ney continued to rack up victo-
ries.
Several GOP strategists and
leaders suggested that Gingrich
could still play a political role by
reviving organizations he previ-
ously led that fought President
Barack Obamas health care over-
haul andraisedmillions of dollars
for conservative causes. He also
could return to his work as a com-
mentator for conservative media
outlets or perhaps accept apost in
a Republican administration.
What comes next as
Gingrich exits trail?
Experts warn against writing
off former presidential
hopeful from political scene.

Associated Press
Gingrich
WASHINGTON Rick San-
torum wants to ensure the
GOPs policy platform repre-
sents conservatives interests.
Newt Gingrich wants help retir-
ing his campaign debt and re-
pairing his reputation.
Both Republicans are expect-
ed to endorse their former rival
Mitt Romney and signal to
their backers to fall in line be-
hind the partys presumptive
nominee but each wants as-
surances that Romney will deliv-
er for them. Neither is rushing
toward the task.
Meanwhile, it doesnt appear
that Rep. RonPaul of Texas is go-
ing to go that way. Paul is still in
the race and hasnt yet recog-
nized Romney as the partys
nominee. The tea party favorite
andformer Libertarianpresiden-
tial nominee seems unlikely to
endorse given deep differences
with Romney on economic and
foreign policy issues.
Romney plans to meet Santo-
rum on Friday and Gingrich
plans to endorse him this week,
an end-of-primary dance that
happens every four years once
the party settles on a nominee.
Santorum, a former Pennsyl-
vania senator, quit the race April
10but has stoppedshort of publi-
cly embracing Romney as the
GOPs standard bearer after a
bitter primary season that fea-
tured Santorum calling Romney
the worst Republican in the
country to run against Obama.
Not long after, Santorum was
telling CNNs Piers Morgan
about Romney, Its very clear
that hes going to be the Repub-
lican nominee and Im going to
be for the Republican nominee
and were going to do everything
we cantodefeat BarackObama.
Morgan could not goad himinto
a proper endorsement.
Gingrich all but bowed out
last week, saying: Its clear
Romney is the nominee and the
focus should be on defeating
Obama. We should not focus on
defeating ourselves.
He plans to officially end his
campaign in the coming days
and endorse Romney.
Romney, for his part, has been
working to bring the party to-
gether after a bruising primary
season, andnods fromSantorum
and Gingrich could help mend
those wounds. Both Santorum
and Gingrich have fervent fol-
lowings among conservatives
who make up the base of the par-
ty and who generally view Rom-
ney skeptically because of his po-
sitions on a host of issues.
Romney has changed his posi-
tion on bedrock issues such as
abortion and gay rights. He sup-
ported the 2008 Wall Street bai-
lout that angered conservatives
and paved the way for the rise of
the tea party. And he signed a
health care overhaul as governor
that provided the groundwork
for Democrats national law that
requires all Americans to buy in-
surance or face a fine. Romneys
health care overhaul in Massa-
chusetts required health care
coverage.
Thats the primary issue San-
torum plans to discuss Friday
when he meets privately with
Romney.
We want to make sure he
doesnt replace it with any kind
of mandate, Santorum adviser
Hogan Gidley said. He added,
Advisers caution that an en-
dorsement or a public appear-
ance for that matter is unlike-
ly to immediately follow Santo-
rums private meetingwithRom-
ney.
Santorumis in no rush to rally
toRomneys side. Peoplecloseto
Santorum said deep resentment
remains between the men. But
he also recognizes he risks look-
inglikea soreloser andis expect-
ed to eventually support Rom-
ney.
Even so, key members of San-
torums teamhave ralliedbehind
Romney in recent weeks. Mike
Biundo, Santorums former cam-
paign manager, signed on with
the Romney campaign in Boston
to lead outreach to conserva-
tives. Foster Friess, the driving
force behind a pro-Santorum su-
per PAC that kept his presiden-
tial ambitions afloat, has agreed
to rejoin Romneys camp.
Former rivals want assurances
Santorum, Gingrich expected
to endorse Romney, but each
wants something from him.

KINGSTON A man accused
of initiating a pursuit with police
that ended in a crash on Inter-
state 81 near Scranton was ar-
raigned Tuesday on child por-
nography charges.
Steven E. Brown, 26, of Stew-
art Street, Kingston, was ar-
raigned by District Judge Paul
Roberts on seven counts of pos-
sessing child pornography and
one count each with dissemina-
tion of sexual material, corrup-
tion of minors, criminal use of
communication facility, harass-
ment and furnishing alcohol to a
minor. Bail was set at $25,000.
Brown is jailed at the Lacka-
wanna County Prison in lieu of
$5,000 bail, court records say, on
charges relatedtothe pursuit and
crash on April 19.
State police at Dunmore said
Brown was pursued for about 20
miles from Wilkes-Barre Town-
ship to the area of the Central
Scranton Expressway, where he
struck the rear of a tractor-trailer.
During the pursuit, state po-
lice allege Brown collided with
four vehicles involving nine peo-
ple, including a 1-year-old boy.
Two people suffered minor inju-
ries, state police said.
Brown was charged by state
police with fleeing or attempting
to elude police, simple assault,
reckless endangerment, and four
traffic offenses on April 27.
Brown initiated the pursuit a
day before he was scheduled to
surrender on child pornography
charges, which were filed on
April 20.
According to the criminal com-
plaint filed by Luzerne County
detectives:
A mother of a 15-year-old boy
reported in March that her son
received harassing phone calls
and text messages. She discov-
ered a sexually explicit advertise-
ment appeared on Craigslist, an
Internet auction site, which in-
cluded her sons cell phone num-
ber.
Men unknown to the family
were showing up at her residence
looking for her son. Investigators
learned the advertisement was
created on March 17 with a com-
puter and phone number alleged-
ly belonging to Brown, the crimi-
nal complaint says.
The 15-year-old boy told inves-
tigators he met Brown on an al-
ternative website in late Febru-
ary.
Brown allegedly took nude
photos of the boy, and sent the
boy lewd pictures and videos, ac-
cording to the criminal com-
plaint.
Apreliminary hearingis sched-
uled for May 10 before Roberts.

The dinner is the culmination
of weeks of preparation by teams
looking to secure a first-place fin-

prize money to help get their
business idea off the ground.
A winner will be chosen from
both collegiate and non-colle-

the cash prize.
Luciani said the winning
teams also will receive many in-
kind services, everything from
accounting tips to strategic sell-
ing ideas to deals on office
space.
A judging panel composed of
local business leaders reviewed
100 business plans before choos-
ing the seven finalists.

competition by showing them
how to turn an idea into a viable
project.
Sponsored by the Northeast-
ern Pennsylvania Technology In-
stitute and in cooperation with
the Northeast Pennsylvania As-
sociationof Colleges andUniver-
sities, the Entrepreneurship In-
stitute gave about 100 students
from 10 regional schools a week
to come up with a business plan.
Not all seven finalists took
part in the event, but EI partici-
pants went on to win the busi-
ness plan competition the last
three years.
Thats a good omen for team
Triple Toe Turkey Calls, which
judges selected as the first-place
finisher following the EI.
Developed by Marywood Uni-

My psychology is such that I
cant jump up and down.
Jon Robin Baitz
The playwright whose Other Desert Cities on
Tuesday earned five Tony nominations, including
best play, joked about his understated reaction. I
suppose that makes me Jewish and of the theater, he quipped.
Hypocrisy, half-truths
abound about abortion
B
y 2014 the Obama health care plan will
force all taxpayers to pay a surcharge
to cover abortions, not only if one does
not want an abortion, but even if one is
incapable of having an abortion (i.e., if one
is male, or a female beyond child-bearing
years).
Email or call your state representative or
senator at either a Harrisburg or district
office and ask him or her to support Sen-
ate Bill 3, which would allow Pennsylvania
to opt out of this unjust requirement.
While youre at it, ask your state repre-
sentative and senator to support HB1077,
the Womens Right To Know bill, which
would give the option for a woman consid-
ering an abortion to view an ultrasound of
the baby in her womb. This bill would not
force any woman to view an ultrasound.
Abortionists routinely use the ultra-
sound themselves, to see exactly where in
the womb the baby is, so they can accu-
rately stab the baby with their fatal saline
injection or use their other fatal tools of
the trade.
Why is Planned Parenthood opposed to
a woman viewing an ultrasound in the
interests of informed consent, but not
opposed to the abortionists routinely using
it? The hypocrisy of Planned Parenthood is
amazing.

Taxing rich wont solve
all the worlds tragedies
A
t age 14, my father was injured in a
coal mine accident, a tragedy for our
family. Many parents sons and daugh-
ters serve in the military and are killed in
defense of their country: a tragedy. Mas-
sive flooding, tornados and hurricanes
cause so much pain in peoples lives: a
tragedy. Thousands of Americans are vic-
tims of vicious crimes: a tragedy. The rich,
middle class and the poor are victims of
tragedy. Tragedy crosses over party and
racial lines.
If you listen to President Obama, taxing
the rich will eliminate the tragedy in the
trial-and-error adventure on this planet
Earth, but he is only misleading the peo-
ple. Would more money save the tragedy
in his own family adventure? I dont think
so.

MATT CARTWRIGHTS
defeat of U.S. Rep. Tim
Holden in Pennsylvanias
17th District Democratic
primary last week was a
spirited victory for the new
liberal-leaning district. But
Cartwrights old-school Roosevelt Demo-
cratic politics will be a liability on Capitol
Hill if he wins the general election in No-
vember.
Cartwright benefited from Holdens ap-
parent indifference toward voters in Lu-
zerne and Lackawanna counties, who now
represent 80 percent of the reconfigured
district. Those voters are also more liberal
than Holden, a Blue Dog Democrat
whose moderate credentials consistently
swayed voters from his Schuylkill County
base to his side since 1992.
Cartwright campaigned on a platform
that included a public option in health
insurance, more spending on jobs and in-
frastructure, and improved educational
programs. Those policies are extremely
attractive to the regions voters, most of
whom are living on fixed incomes or be-
long to the working and struggling middle
classes.
Just as appealing to those voters is Cart-
wrights proposal to pay for the programs
by raising taxes on the richest 1 percent
and by making moderate cuts in military
spending.
Eliminate the cut in defense spending,
and Cartwright is firmly rooted in the poli-
tics of Franklin D. Roosevelt, whose New
Deal programs of the 1930s established a
precedent in welfare spending that contin-
ues to the present day.
But that doesnt mean Cartwrights poli-
tics will be successful in Congress.
Congressional approval ratings are at an
all-time low, with only 9 percent in favor of
the job Congress is doing. The 2011 session
has been the least productive since 1995.
The reason for the legislative gridlock is
rigid partisanship.
During the Obama administration, many
members of Congress have shifted further
to the right in the GOP and further to the
left in the Democratic Party, making the
legislative process so onerous that its diffi-
cult to solve any of the problems our coun-
try faces. Meanwhile, those problems are
compounding.
One of the reasons Holden was able to
survive in Congress for 10 terms was be-
cause of his ability to break partisan ranks
and work with Republicans on important
legislation that included immigration re-
form, environmental concerns and job
creation.
Cartwright, who prides himself on his
rigidly liberal credentials, might only add
to the gridlock if he prevails in November.
His advocacy of deficit-spending to create
more jobs another FDR trait could en-
sure that the acrimony between both par-
ties will continue at a time when the feder-
al budget is already bloated.
Another reason Holden was able to hold
onto his congressional seat was due to his
seniority. As the senior Pennsylvania mem-
ber serving on the House Transportation
and Infrastructure Committee, he had a
significant influence on the legislation that
came out of the committee and was often
able to secure passage.
If Cartwright is elected to Congress, he
will be starting at ground zero with only
two years to prove himself and a constitu-
ency that demands immediate results.
Unless hes appointed to a committee in
which he can make an immediate impact,
his chances of success are limited.
The power and influence of seniority in
the U.S. House of Representatives should
not be underestimated, particularly in
Northeastern Pennsylvania which histor-
ically has benefited from the billions of
dollars channeled here by such legendary
pork barrelers as Daniel Flood and Joseph
McDade.
While some people might question the
methods of those former congressmen, its
difficult to deny that they were among the
regions most effective politicians because
of their seniority and bipartisanship.
Matt Cartwright strikes me as a man who
will earnestly fight for the needs and in-
terests of his constituents. But thats not
enough to achieve success on Capitol Hill.

HERE WAS MORE
than a little irony
when the immediate
future of former Penn-
sylvania House Speaker H. Wil-
liamDeWeese was decided last
week on Election Day, but not
by the voters in the 50th Legis-
lative District that he had rep-
resented for more than three
decades.
DeWeese, a Greene County
Democrat, was sentenced by
Dauphin County Court Presi-
dent Judge Todd Hoover to 2
to five years in prison for his
part in the so-called Bonus-
gate, inwhichstateemployees
were compelled to work on the
re-election campaigns of some
legislators when they should
have been working for the tax-
payers of the commonwealth.
DeWeese did not remove
himself fromthe primary ballot
in which he was running unop-
posed.
Furthermore he indicated
that he would appeal his con-
viction and fight to regain his
seat by winning the election in
November.
DeWeese did apologize to
his family, friends and support-
ers, but he refused to accept re-
sponsibility for what he was
convicted of having done.
The fact that so many mem-
bers of the electorate contin-
ued to support a convicted fe-
lon is an indication of some-
thing we have said many times:
Those who support termlimits
for statelegislators areinterest-
ed in seeing limits placed upon
the senators and representa-
tives who were elected by oth-
ers. Most people are quite hap-
py, or at least not upset, by
their ownelectedofficials, even
if they prove to be scoundrels.
That might explain why
some longtime members of the
Legislature sometimes seemto
develop an attitude of entitle-
ment, one that suggests they
can do almost anything with-
out regard to the rules of the
House or Senate or the laws of
the commonwealth.

EAR LACKAWANNA COUNTY,
Congratulations on selling the regions minor league
baseball franchise last weekandsimultaneously securi-
ng a decades-long commitment for a continued presence here
fromthe NewYork Yankees one of the worlds premiere sports
teams.
A tip of the cap to you.
Nowthat the ink has dried on the contract, however, please at
your earliest convenience send us our share of the money. Thats
half, remember? By our tally, you owe us about $7.3 million.
Make the check payable to Luzerne County.
As partners in the venture that brought Triple-A baseball to
Northeastern Pennsylvania about a quarter-century ago, we had
a deal. According to that 1986 agreement, both counties ponied
up $1 million and, in the event of the franchises sale, were to
share equally in the distribution of any such proceeds
Plenty has transpired since then, not the least of which is Lu-
zerne Countys detachment fromthe operationandvirtual exclu-
sionfromthenegotiatingtable. Likeaticket-less fantryingtospy
the on-field action, we have been able to only sneak peeks
through the fence. At least one crooked Lackawanna County
commissioner supposedly hobnobbed with a representative of
the Yankees a few years ago when a sale was being explored, re-
ceiving swell gifts but almost bungling everything for local base-
ball buffs. (Presumably, Luzerne Countys crooks were preoccu-
pied then with schemes having nothing to do with Yankee pin-
stripes.)
Certain people, most of whom probably live north of Avoca,
will argue that Luzerne County is owed nothing from the latest
transaction because of the millions that Lackawanna County
paid through the years to maintain the then-multipurpose stadi-
um. Not to split hairs, a la the late businessman George Stein-
brenner, but its been our understanding that Luzerne County
went halfsies on a franchise, not a ballpark.
Upon receipt of your check, we intend to quickly put the $7.3
million to good use by retiring some debt or refurbishing a for-
mer Wilkes-Barre railroad station that could serve as a nifty vis-
itors center. By all means, if we choose the latter option, we will
display heaps of brochures touting the newly rebuilt PNCField
home of the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Yankees.
Sincerely,
Luzerne County

years. They said they wanted to
give Skrepenak a second chance
a chance they say he deserved
after spending nearly a year and
a half in federal prison.
Skrep declines comment
Skrepenak said through a re-
ceptionist at the lawfirmthat he
is not allowed to speak to the
media under the terms of his
confinement. Later, when he
was getting off the elevator at
the Kirby Park Commons build-
ing, Skrepenak was dressed in
workout clothes and carrying a
duffle bag.
Cant you guys just leave me
alone already? is all he would
say.
Fellerman said he met with
Bureau of Prisons representa-
tive Irene Clark on Tuesday to
go over the terms of Skrepenaks
confinement.
Fellerman described Skrepe-
naks position as a legal assist-
ant/case manager who per-
forms research. He said Skrepe-
nak works Monday through Fri-
day from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and
cannot leave the building.
Part of my day and Eddies,
too, is getting lunch for (Skrepe-
nak), Fellerman said. He also
has been changing a lot of light
bulbs he just reaches up to get
them; he doesnt need a ladder.
Skrepenak, at 6-foot-8, ap-
pears to have lost weight during
his incarceration. Fellerman
said Skrepenak has dropped
about 125 pounds.
The Fellerman & Ciarimboli
firm does personal injury work.
Fellerman said Skrepenak has
been researching trucking
manuals to aid with a case.
Weve known (Skrepenak) a
long time, Fellerman said. My
wife was in his wedding and my
brother-in-law played football
with him at GAR.
Sorry for his mistake
A lot of people make mis-
takes, Fellerman said. Greg is
sorry for his mistake and he is
trying to get his life together.
This arrangement allows him to
be with his family.
Fellerman said Skrepenak
wants to move forward and has
been humbled by the experi-
ence.
Life is about second chanc-
es, Ciarimboli said. Prison is
about rehabilitation. We have no
problem giving him this oppor-
tunity to begin to get on with his
life.
Ciarimboli said the Luzerne
County corruption scandal has
left an indelible black mark on
the county and its people. He
said its time for the healing
process to begin.
The entire community needs
to heal, he said. Those affect-
ed have learned from their mis-
takes. We have to allow them to
re-enter society and become
productive citizens again.
Fellerman agreed, saying the
county has to move away from
its recent headline-filled past.
Luzerne County hit rock bot-
tom, Fellerman said. We all
need to rise up.
Skrepenak will end his work
at the law firm on June 12, the
scheduleddate of his release. He
will then look for a new job.
He can do very well, Ciarim-
boli said. This has been a posi-
tive crossroad for him.
Mom waiting for him
Barbara Skrepenak, Gregs
mother, was waiting for him in
the parking lot. She was driving
a Chevrolet Trailblazer with li-
cense plate SKREP-75. She said
her son needs time to adjust and
get back into the community.
Were all trying to help as
much as we can, she said.
Skrepenak, formerly of Jen-
kins Township, was given a two-
year sentence for his guilty plea
to accepting a $5,000 kickback
as a reward for supporting a real
estate developers entry into a
program to delay payment of
taxes on the project. He was sen-
tenced on Aug. 11, 2010 and re-
ported to prison on Sept. 16,
2010.
Skrepenaks sentence was re-
duced by 94 days for good con-
duct credits he earned while in-
carcerated.
Federal prisoners accrue 54
days of good conduct time per
year, assuming they do not have
any serious disciplinary issues.
Skrepenak was released from
the federal prisoninWest Virgin-
ia and taken to a halfway house
in Philadelphia earlier this year.
Skrepenak, a Democrat, re-
signedhis county positioninDe-
cember 2009, midway through
his second, four-year term and a
day before he was charged.
A standout offensive lineman,
Skrepenak played at the Univer-
sityof Michiganandthenfor five
years in the National Football
League for the Carolina Pan-
thers and Los Angeles/Oakland
Raiders.
Mike Prociak, Skrepenaks
former campaign manager, said
the two talk nearly every day.
Having a job and being at
home makes him feel better,
Prociak said. And 99 percent of
the people he sees during the
course of a day are positive.

lars by Lupas.
U.S. Attorney Peter J. Smith
saidthe complaints filedby other
clients are part of an ongoing in-
vestigation of Lupas.
He declined to say if a second
indictment addingadditional vic-
tims might be filed. Federal law
allows prosecutors to seek an
amended indictment, which is
known as a superseding indict-
ment.
Lupas, 77, of Plains Township,
was initially arrested on March
29 on one count of mail fraud.
The original complaint alleges
Lupas hadbeendefraudinginves-
tors since January 1993.
Lupas is a prominent area at-
torney who servedas solicitor for
the Wilkes-Barre Area School
District for decades before re-
signing last month. His son, Lu-
zerne County Judge David Lu-
pas, has said he reported his fa-
ther to authorities in the fall of
2011 after he became aware of
circumstances he believed war-
ranted an investigation.
A motion filed by Ruzzo on
April 4 indicates Anthony Lupas
is attempting to work out a plea
deal with prosecutors. The mo-
tion sought to continue a prelimi-
nary hearing that was set for
April 11 before a federal judge,
who would determine if there
was sufficient evidence for the
case to go to trial.
Ruzzo requested that hearing
be postponed, noting that he was
in discussions with prosecutors
to resolve the case and needed
more time to continue those dis-
cussions.
The case was again set to go to
preliminary hearingtoday. Prose-
cutors instead presented the case
to a grand jury, which issued the
indictment following an approxi-
mately 1-hour closed-door
hearing.
The indictment charges Lupas
with mail fraud for sending five
letters through the mail that fal-
sely state the client was receiving
payments from the trust fund.
The letters were mailed between
December 2007 and December
2011.
Several attorneys, including
Ernest Preate of Scranton, have
filed lawsuits in Luzerne County
Court against Lupas, alleging he
bilked their clients out of money
based on the same scenario out-
lined in the indictment.
In addition to the trust fund,
Lupas allegedly defrauded inves-
tors by falsely telling them they
were investing in a secret fund
that wouldback gas drilling oper-
ations on land owned by area
business magnate Louis DeNa-
ples, Preate has alleged in court
records.
Preate said there was no such
fund and DeNaples was unaware
his name was being used by Lu-
pas.
Lupas remains free pending ar-
raignment on the indictment. No
date has yet been set for the ar-
raignment.

lect from the State Employees
Retirement System.
SERS has determined Ciava-
rella is not entitled to receive a
pension based on his criminal
conviction. He is entitled to re-
ceive any personal contributions
he made to the fund, however.
The U.S. Attorneys Office is
seeking to seize the money to
help satisfy a $1.17 million resti-
tution order that was issued
against Ciavarella.
Ruzzo and Flora have not been
paid any money yet for their rep-
resentation of Ciavarella, who
was convictedinFebruary 2011of
multiple counts relating to his ac-
ceptance of money from the
builder of two juvenile detention
centers the county utilized. He
was sentenced in August to 28
years in prison.
The attorneys had been seek-
ing payment through a federal in-
digent defense fund. Kosik said
he was reluctant to approve the
request because he knew Ciava-
rellas pension contributions
were available.
I just felt it was an affront to
taxpayers to pay money when
there is an uncontested amount
of money that belongs to Ciava-
rella, Kosik said.
Kosikacknowledgedtaxpayers
will ultimately end up paying the
legal fees either way.
If the attorneys collect from
the pension money, that reduces
the amount available to go to-
ward restitution. If they dont get
the pension money, they will be
eligible to seek payment fromthe
indigent defense fund.
Taxpayers are going to pay
anyway, but the law says a de-
fendant has a Sixth Amendment
right to hire his own counsel,
who has a right to be paid by un-
encumbered funds, Kosik said.
Ruzzo said he does not know
yet howmuch money he and Flo-
rawill seekas theyneedtoreview
their records to determine how
many hours they spent on the
case.
Federal regulations cap the to-
tal payment for a felony trial to
$9,700, but a judge can approve a
higher limit in complex cases
such as Ciavarellas, Ruzzo said.
Ruzzo said he and Flora will
present an invoice to the U.S. At-
torneys Office to see if they can
reachanagreement onthe fees. If
noagreement canbe reached, the
issue would be decided by Kosik.
Ruzzo and Flora also are repre-
senting Ciavarella inhis appeal of
his conviction to the Third Cir-
cuit Court of Appeals. In that
case they were court-appointed
by the Third Circuit at a rate of
$125 per hour.

lightning visit with the speech
delivered straight to the televi-
sion camera and the voters he
was trying to reach back home.
This time of war began in Af-
ghanistan, he said. With faith
in each other, and our eyes fixed
on the future, let us finish the
work at hand and forge a just and
lasting peace.
Earlier, he delivered a similar-
ly upbeat message to the troops.
Noting their sacrifice, he said,
Theres a light on the horizon.
It was Obamas fourth trip to
Afghanistan, his third as com-
mander in chief. He was about
seven hours on the ground in all.
He also visited troops at a hospi-
tal at the Bagrambase, awarding
10 Purple Hearts.
The written agreement that
he and Karzai signed is to cover
the decade after the planned fi-
nal withdrawal of U.S. combat
troops in 2014. Obama said
American forces will be involved
in counter-terrorism and train-
ing of the Afghan military. But
we will not build permanent
bases in this country, nor will we
be patrolling its cities and moun-
tains.
In his speech to the nation,
Obama said, I recognize many
Americans are tired of war.
He said that last year, we re-
moved 10,000 U.S. troops from
Afghanistan. Another 23,000
will leave by the end of the sum-
mer. After that, reductions will
continue at a steady pace, with
more of our troops coming
home. And as our coalition
agreed, by the endof 2014 the Af-
ghans will be fully responsible
for the security of their country.
Without mentioning the polit-
ical campaign back home, Oba-
ma claimedthat onhis watchthe
fortunes of the terrorists have
suffered mightily.
Over the past three years the
tide has turned. We broke the Ta-
libans momentum. Weve built
strong Afghan security forces.
We devastated al-Qaidas leader-
ship, taking out over 20 of their
top 30 leaders, he said.
Andone year ago, froma base
here in Afghanistan, our troops
launched the operation that
killed Osama bin laden.
In a reference to the destruc-
tion of New Yorks World Trade
Center on Sept. 11, 2001, he add-
ed, As we emerge froma decade
of conflict abroad and economic
crisis at home, it is time torenew
America ... a united America of
grit and resilience, where sun-
light glistens off soaring new
towers in downtown Manhattan,
and we build our future as one
people, as one nation.
He spoke for less than 15 min-
utes, beginning at 4 a.m. in Af-
ghanistan, 7:30 p.m. on the East
Coast of the United States. Min-
utes later, Air Force One was on
its way back to Washington.
According to the Pentagon,
more than 1,800 American
troops have been killed across
more than a decade of war in Af-
ghanistan.
Some 88,000 remainstationed
there.
Obama flew to the site of
Americas longest war not only
as commander in chief but also
as an incumbent president in the
early stages of a tough re-elec-
tioncampaign. Nor were the two
roles completely distinct.
His presence was a reminder
that since taking office in 2009,
Obama has endedthe war inIraq
and moved to create an orderly
end for the U.S. combat role in
Afghanistan.
In the political realm, he and
Vice President Joe Biden have
markedtheone-year anniversary
of bin Ladens death by question-
ing whether Republican challen-
ger Mitt Romney would have or-
dered the daring raid that pene-
trated the terrorist leaders Pa-
kistan hide-out. Republicans are
accusing the president of politic-
izing the event, and Romney is
insisting that he would indeed
have ordered U.S. forces into ac-

Romanelli said. But therearedif-
ferent ways of winning.
Having Rosanne Barr on the
ticket or just having her as a
candidate could spark more in-
terest in the party, making it eas-
ier to overcome the huge hurdle
placedonthirdparties whenthey
try to get someone on a ballot in
Pennsylvania by getting needed
signatures on petitions.
For the general election ballot
the old parties (Democrat and
Republican), 2,000 signatures,
Romanelli said. For us to qualify
it has to be 22 percent of the high-
est vote in that district, 20,000 is
our minimum number this year.
And the established parties
have a penchant for rigorously
challenging those signatures, Ro-
manelli adding, So we really
should try to get 40,000.

Its fun, and hopefully were get-

Carl Romanelli, political activ-
ist and former Green Party can-
didate for Senate, attended the
rally to spread the word about
his party, which he said has
something in common with the
Occupy movement.
One of the Green Partys key
values is this thing called decen-
tralization, Romanelli said. Its
kind of a hard concept for people
to get there heads around, but
this is what the1percent is; all of
this centralizing of wealth and
power is responsible for this evil
we see from here on our streets

Conference football standout will
be getting a crack at making an

HazletonAreasNateEachus, the
Times Leader Player of the Year in
2007, signed with the Kansas City
Chiefs as an undrafted free agent.
The All-American running back
from Colgate and Patriot League
Player of theYear agreedtojointhe
Chiefs shortly after the completion
of the NFL Draft
on Saturday
night. His con-
tract was final-
ized Monday.
Its been my

WILKES-BARRE As the final
minutes ticked off Tuesday,
Coughlin keeper Amanda Sax
had to be ready as Berwick
worked frantically for a tying
goal. Twice before, she had made
diving saves only to have the
Dawgs hustle to score on follow-
up shots.
But as midfielder Nora Fazzi
thwarted Ber-
wicks last
chance by
launching the
ball down field,
Sax andher Cru-
saders team-
mates were able
to hold on for a
3-2 victory in a key Wyoming Val-
ley Conference Division 1-A girls
soccer game.
Coughlin (7-2-1) took over sole
possessionof thirdplaceinthedi-
vision. Berwick (6-3-1) dropped
to fourth. But those two teams
along with first-place Dallas
(10-0) and second-place Crest-
wood (7-2) locked up all the di-
visions District 2 playoff berths.
Its always intense, Sax said
of the waning minutes where
Berwick pushed everyone into
the offensive side of the field. Ev-
eryone picks up their game. So
theres a lot of pressure on you.
Even more so considering the
unfortunate luck Sax had on Ber-
wicks two scores. She jumped
hardto her left to deflect shots by
Berwicks Brianna Floryshak.
The first ricochet went right to
Jade Welsh, whotiedthe score1-1
early in the second half.
The other went to Gabby Kish-
baugh, who scored her first goal
of the season to move Berwick
within3-2 withjust under13 min-
utes remaining. On that one, Sax
tried to crawl to the deflection,
but Kishbaugh won the battle.
Youjust got totell yourself not
to blame it on yourself, Sax said.
Youjust havetoget thenext save
and the next save. Try not to let
anymore in.
Finding the net had been a
problem for Coughlin in its last
three games with Berwick. The
H . S . G I R L S S O C C E R
Coughlin
hangs on
to beat
Bulldogs
Crusaders hold off a late push
by Berwick to move into third
place in Division 1-A.

PHILADEPHIA Adam
Larsson and David Clarkson
scored their first goals of the
postseason, and the New Jersey
Devils posted a 4-1 win over the
Philadelphia Flyers on Tuesday
night, evening this Eastern Con-
ference semifinals series at 1-1.
Larsson and Clarkson scored
consecutive goals in the third
period to rally the Devils past
the Flyers and make up for the
absence of Ilya Kovalchuk. The
Devils played without their reg-
ular-season leading scorer be-
cause of a lower body injury.
Travis Zajac added a late goal
to make it 3-1, and Bryce Salva-
dor scored a late empty-netter
for the Devils.
Game 3 is Thursday in New
Jersey.
Matt Read scored 2:53 into
the game to give the Flyers hope
they could jump to a command-
ing series lead. Instead, the of-
fense went into a funk and goalie
Ilya Bryzgalov couldnt protect
the advantage.
Even without Kovalchuk, the
Devils did what they wanted
against Bryzgalov, taking close
shots and dominating the play in
the Flyers zone.
They just couldnt score ... un-
til the third.
Bryzgalov, who signed a $51
million, nine-year deal last sum-
mer, was especially stout in the
second when he bailed out the
Flyers offense with a 12-save pe-
riod. The Flyers went more than
18 minutes in the period before
taking a shot on Martin Brodeur.
I didnt sense frustration. We
were comfortable with how we
played the first two periods,
Devils coach Peter DeBoer said.
And it was just a matter of keep-
ing it going in the third, and the
goals came.
Bryzgalov had a brutal first
five games of the postseason and
allowed 20 goals against Pitts-
burgh. But he shut down the
Penguins in the Game 6 clincher
a 5-1 win and allowed
three goals in the Game1victory
against the Devils.
He appeared to have turned
the corner.

ST. JOHNS, Newfoundland
The Wilkes-Barre/Scranton
Penguins received outstanding
goaltending from Brad Thies-
sen, but his teammates failed to
provide much support as the St.
Johns IceCaps skated away
with a 3-1 win in the opening
game of their second-round Cal-
der Cup playoff series Tuesday
night.
Thiessen held up his end of
the bargainfor the visiting Pens,
stopping 34 shots, including 20
in the opening 20 minutes.
Problem is, the Penguins
managed only one goal, that by
veteran Cal OReilly on a first-
period power play.
For sure, he kept us in the
game in the first period, said
Penguins coach John Hynes of
Thiessen. If it wasnt for him,
with the way we started, we
could have been down by mul-
tiple goals.
He played well and gave us a
chance to win. We didnt grab
hold of that opportunity.
Brock Trotter, a late-season
addition by St. Johns who was
limited to only 42 games this
year, netted a pair of goals for
the IceCaps, before a 41st
straight sellout crowd of 6,287
at Mile One Centre.
Garth Murray added an insur-
ance marker withjust under two
minutes to go in regulation
time.
The Pens and IceCaps were
fairly even through the regular
season, with Wilkes-Barre/
Scranton taking a pair of games

Then came the final period.
Kovalchuks injury opened a
roster spot for Larsson, a rookie
defenseman, to be activated.
Larsson was a first-round pick
last year, and is just 19 years old.
He had two goals and 18 points
in his first NHL season, but had
not played a playoff game yet.
Larssons shot from the circle
beat Bryzgalov on his glove side
early in the third for the tying
goal.
Down a goal, third period,
and it was huge, DeBoer said of
the rookies goal. I feel great for
Larsson. Hes been out a few
games, and he responded.
Clarkson made it 2-1 minutes
later when he scored off a re-
bound. The Devils won the face-
off and Zach Parise was stuffed
with a pad save. Clarkson then
crashed the net to knock in the
puck and fly gut-first into the
crossbar. He lay on top of the
net briefly as his teammates
mobbed him.
Bryzgalov slammed his stick
in frustration after the goal.
Zajacs fifth goal of the post-
season on a backhander made it
3-1 and gave the Devils the in-
surance goal they needed.
I really felt wed respond like
this, DeBoer said. I knew wed
be better than Game 1. Knew
wed bounce back. Weve dealt
with adversity and injuries all
year. Its nothing new.
Bryzgalov shook his head and
remained motionless on his
knees for at least a minute after
Zajacs goal. He was still down
on one knee for the faceoff be-
fore he finally stood up and got
his head back into the game.
He clearly wasnt happy about
the goals. And he was probably
angry with Philadelphias offen-
sive ineptness, as well.
At the end of the game,
Claude Giroux stopped Bryzga-
lov for a brief chat before he was
greeted by the rest of the team.
Giroux has emerged as the lead-
er of the team and whatever he
was telling the goalie, Bryzgalov
seemed to agree with, mostly
nodding his head.
The Flyers entered with an
NHL postseason-high 34 goals
but failed to generate much of-
fense after a move-the-puck first
10 minutes.
Read scored from a tough an-
gle outside the circle to beat
Brodeur for the fast 1-0 lead. But
it didnt hold up.
Not even Giroux and Danny
Briere could spark the Flyers.
Each tick of the clock in the sec-
ond period was like watching a
no-hitter to see if the Flyers
would finally put the puck on
Brodeur. With 1:27 left in the pe-
riod, the Flyers broke through
for a shot and they only took
one more.

ROCHESTER, N.Y. Scran-
ton/Wilkes-Barre trailed Roches-
ter by one run on Tuesday night.
So, that means the Yankees
had the Red Wings right where
they wanted.
The Yankees overcame that
slimdeficit with five unanswered
runs to pick up a 5-2 victory at
Frontier Field for their 13th win
of the season and ninth in come-
from-behind fashion.
The big inning of the night for
the Yankees was the bottom of
the ninth when the Yankees
broke a 1-1 tie. They scored the
go-ahead run on a Dewayne Wise
single andaninsurance runonan
ensuing error.
But the big hit of the frame
came from Steve Pearce, who
belted a three-run home run. His
thirdof the seasonsailedover the
left field wall to put SWB ahead
5-1.
The Red Wings scored a run in
the ninth and loaded the bases
withtwoouts against SWBcloser
Kevin Whelan, but the right-
hander struck out former Scran-
ton/Wilkes-Barre Red Baron Joe
Thurston to end the game.
Pearce (2-for-4) was also a part
of the first run of the game for the
Yankees. Trailing1-0 entering the
bottom of the seventh, he dou-
bledtostart the inning. JackCust
followed with a single to put run-
ners on first and third and Pearce
came around to score when Fran-
cisco Cervelli hit into a double
play to even the score at 1-1.
Rochester went ahead 1-0 in
the top of the fifth when Rene
Rivera (2-for-4) singled with one
out andscoredwhenthe next bat-
ter, Ben Revere (3-for-5) doubled
to score Rivera.
For the second time in14 days,
the Yankees couldnt solve Red
Wings pitcher Daryl Thompson.
He was cruising until the seventh
only allowing just one hit and
four baserunners through six in-
nings. A Jayson Nix single in the
fourth was the lone hit to that
point. But he appeared to be tir-
ing and was lifted after Custs sin-
gle in the seventh. His last time
out against the Yankees he lasted
five innings and only gave up one
run.
Adam Warren pitched well for
the Yankees coming off a not-so-
good outing his last time out
when he surrendered five runs
and three home runs in a no-deci-
sion at Pawtucket. On Tuesday,
he only gave up one run and six
hits in five innings.

Northwest 19, GAR 4 (3 inn.)
The host Rangers (4-4)
scored 12 runs in the second
and ended the game with the
15-run rule with one out in the
third.
Kevin Volkel finished 3-for-3
the seventh, only to have Ha-
nover Area fire back in the
home half of the frame each
time.
Held to just two hits in the
first six innings, the Hawkeyes
came up with five in the bottom
of the seventh for the win as
Kocher deposited an 0-2 pitch
into the gap to end the game.
I cant even breathe, joked
Hanover Area coach Mike Zapo-
toski, still worked up after the
game. I almost died out there.
Zach Kollar and Christian
Pack lead off the bottom of the
seventh with singles when Mike
Sulcoski came through with a
base hit of his own to pull the
Hawks within 4-3. After a fly-
out, Nick Deno tied it up with
an RBI single.
The Black Knights loaded the
bases with an intentional walk
to set up a potential double
play. A fly ball to shallow center
wasnt deep enough for the
runner to tag up, but Kocher
made his last swing count on
the next at-bat.
That clutch hit gave the Haw-
keyes a 1
1
2-game lead over Leh-
man in the standings. The
Knights (6-2) would need to
win out and hope for Hanover
Area to drop two of their final
five games just to force a playoff
for the division crown, a scena-
rio Mark LeValley conceded
was unlikely.
The league title seems to be
a little bit out of reach now at
two games behind, but our
goals are set on the district
tournament, the Lake-Lehman
coach said. Theyve always
been set on the district tourna-
ment thats our main goal.
Were still striving for that.
Leadoff man Cole Barbacci
had produced a run through
hustle to start the seventh for
the Knights, reaching on a
perfect drag bunt. He later took
second over confusion on a
dead ball call that was retracted
before stealing third and scor-
ing when the throw went into
left field. Pete Borum added an
RBI single to make it 4-2.
Hanover Area coaches were
irate over the dead ball that
wasnt called along with a dis-
puted safe call at first base in
the fourth that brought home a
run for the Knights. But the
young Hawkeyes lineup shook
it off along with a pair of
deficits to earn the win.
Theyve grown up, Zapo-
toski said. In a game like this,
being down two in the last
(inning), they could have easily
went three-up, three-down, its
over. But they fought until the
end. Had a couple mishaps here
or there, but they fought
through it and came back
against two solid pitchers to
win the game.
Hawkeyes ace Mickey Fer-
rence went the distance for his
fifth league win of the season,
striking out seven and walking
three two intentionally. Sul-
coski reached base in all four
plate appearances, finishing
with two hits and two walks.
Tyler McGovern gave up just
two hits in five innings for the
Knights, striking out eight but
walking six. He was 2-for-4 at
the plate with a double and
scored on a Curt Barbacci sin-
gle in the fourth.
Mike Blazaskie hit a two-run
single in the bottom of the
fourth for Hanover Area.
It was the second straight
dramatic win for the Hawkeyes
over the Knights this season,
having won 4-2 in eight innings
up at Lehman in their league
opener.
This time, however, Lake-
Lehman came away from the
game with a positive outlook.
Absolutely, LeValley said.
It was a much cleaner game.
We had a couple errors but
overall, were playing much
better now than that first meet-
ing. I think were even.
They beat us twice, obvi-
ously, on the scoreboard, but I
dont think theres much differ-
ence between us at all.

NEW YORK (AP) While
Andy Pettitte was testifying in a
Washington, D.C., courthouse,
the New York Yankees said hell
get at least one more start in
the minor leagues before rejoin-
ing their starting rotation.
Yankees manager Joe Girardi
spoke with the 39-year-old left-
hander on Monday, just before
Pettitte gave up six runs and 10
hits in 5
2
3 innings against Phila-
delphia in an extended spring
training game at Clearwater,
Fla. Pettitte then traveled to
Washington, where he was
called by prosecutors to testify
in the trial of former Yankees
and Houston Astros teammate
Roger Clemens.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. Mike
Harrington is content watching
the hubbub of Kentucky Derby
week from afar. The 71-year-old
trainer is happily tucked away in
a non-descript barn that lacks
eventheteeniest viewof Church-
ill Downs magnificent Twin
Spires.
Let the visitors be entertained
by Bob Bafferts jokes or eaves-
drop on Todd Pletchers training
tidbits.
Harrington prefers laying low
with Creative Cause, likely to be
one of the top betting choices for
Saturdays race.
The gray-roan colt has never
finished out of the money in any
of his eight career races, posting
four wins, two seconds and two
thirds. Hesamongthebestof five
strongCalifornia-basedhorses in
the expected 20-horse field. Of
course, Baffert andPletcher hold
their usual stronghand, withtwo
Derby horses each.
Harringtonhas but one.
This is probably two derbies
for me, he saidTuesday. Its my
first andmy last.
He certainly has the pedigree
to be here.
Harringtonfollowedhisfather,
grandfather and great-grandfa-
ther into the business, starting
out training and racing quarter
horses at bushtracks as a teenag-
er. Later, he became a veterinar-
ianandworkedtheracetracksun-
til returning to training full time
nearly 20 years ago.
Creative Cause is the best
horse hes ever had.
Everybody
grows up
dreamingof go-
ing to the Ken-
tucky Derby
and most peo-
ple realize
theyre proba-
bly never going
to make it, and I never thought I
wouldmake it, he said. Yougot
guys like Baffert and Pletcher
who have most of them(horses),
soforalittleguylikemeitspretty
rewarding.
The colt is owned by Heinz
Steinmann, an80-year-oldcredit-
ed with bringing skiing to Cali-
fornia from his native Switzer-
land. Heowns MountainHighre-
sort in Wrightwood, Calif., locat-
ed in the mountains north of Los
Angeles. Hes been Harringtons
main client for years and the two
teamed to run Swiss Yodeler,
whowonsomeof Californiasbig-
gest stakes races and was a well-
knownstallioninthe late1990s.
CreativeCausehas mixedit up
on the Derby prep trail with Baff-
erts top colt, Bodemeister, and
trainer Doug ONeills Ill Have
Another. Hebeat Bodemeister to
win the San Felipe Stakes, and
lost byanosetoIll HaveAnother
in the Santa Anita Derby last
month. As a 2-year-old, Creative
Cause beat Ill Have Another in
the Best Pal Stakes and last fall
finished third behind Derby ri-
vals Hansen and Union Rags in
the Breeders Cup Juvenile at
Churchill Downs.
He falls under the radar,
which I like. I dont want him to
be the favorite, I dont want ev-
erybodytalkingabout him, Har-
rington said. Everybody should
betalkingabout Bodemeister, al-
thoughmyhorseoutrunhim. Ev-
erybody should be talking about
Ill Have Another, althoughI out-
run himalso. Those three horses
have traded punches, so who
knows?
Bodemeister, along with Han-
sen and Trinniberg, is expected
to set a fast pace in the 11-4-mile
Derby. Creative Cause likes to
tuck in behind the leaders and
stalk the pace. Ill Have Another
hasgoodspeed, but usuallypush-
es the pace rather than sets it.
ONeill figures Ill Have Another
could lag in the middle of the
pack.
You just need to be running
through the stretch, ONeill
said. Its not so much how fast
youre running early but if you
can stay out of trouble and have
horse to run down the lane, you
got a chance.
Creative Cause has trained
well on Churchills dirt track
since arriving from Los Angeles.
Harringtonfigureshell pushhim
a bit harder on Friday to take the
edge off so the colt wont be too
high-strung on Saturday, when
more than 100,000 screaming
fans will beonhandtowatchhim
and the other Derby horses walk
fromthe barnto the paddock.
Its a damn long ways over
there, said Harrington, who
may skip the procession that
sometrainerssaymakesforanin-
delibleDerbymemory. Mymain
focus is being able to perform in
the paddock and get the saddle
on him. If the horse gets there 20
minutes before I do, what good
amI going to be?

WASHINGTON Andy Pet-
titteandRoger Clemens sat some
20 feet apart, Pettitte on the wit-
ness standandClemens at thede-
fense table trying to avoid going
to jail. The topic: a conversation
Pettitte recalled having with his
longtime teammate, mentor and
workout partner about a dozen
years ago.
Roger had mentioned to me
that he had taken HGH, Pettitte
testified, referring to human
growth hormone. And that it
could help with recovery, and
thats really all I remember about
the conversation.
Its a conversation that Clem-
ens has famously claimed that
Pettitte misremembers.
The right-hander on trial who
won 354 major league games and
the lefty on the stand with 240
wins had an awkward reunion
Tuesday, Day 8 in the retrial of
charges that Clemens lied when
he told Congress in 2008 that he
had never used steroids or hu-
man growth hormone.
Pettittes appearance enliv-
ened the proceedings and came
without warning. The govern-
ment interrupted the testimony
of the trials first witness to call
Pettitte as the clock was about to
hit noon. Wearing a gray suit, he
walked into court a day after al-
lowing six runs and 10 hits with
eight strikeouts over 5
2
3 innings
in an extended spring training
game in Clearwater, Fla., as part
his comeback attempt at age 39
with the New York Yankees.
Pettitte testified mostly with
his hands clasped in front of him
and rarely looked at Clemens,
even during the lengthy delays
whenlawyers heldconferences at
the judges bench. Clemens fre-
quently took notes. The two
havent spoken recently because
of the trial, but Pettitte neverthe-
less said he found it difficult to
testify because he still considers
Clemens a good friend.
Pettitte is crucial to a govern-
ment case that will otherwise re-
ly heavily on the testimony of
Brian McNamee, who worked as
a strength coach for both Clem-
ens and Pettitte and has said he
injected both men with perform-
ance-enhancing substances. The
government showed the jury
photos of the three working out
together in Texas during happier
times Mac, Roger andme, as
Pettitte put it.

in St. Johns. The IceCaps return-
edthe favor onthe Penguins back
in Pennsylvania.
Interms of numbers, this series
may be tooclose tocall. St. Johns
finished with 95 points to Wilkes-
Barre/Scrantons 94, outscored
the Pens by only five goals, while
the Penguins allowed one fewer
goal than the IceCaps.
That said, it was all IceCaps
early on Tuesday night, forcing
theplaytothePenguins andmak-
ing Thiessen dip into his bag of
tricks for a number of quality
saves.
Hes been pretty good in the
playoffs, Hynes said, but this is
the first time hes had this many
shots, this many Grade A oppor-
tunities that hes had to come up
big for us.
In the last series (against the
Hersey Bears), we didnt play as
loose defensively and he didnt
have to make as many big saves.
The game stood 1-0 after the
first period on OReillys fourth
goal of the post-season, a power
playtallyat the4:42markwithJa-
son Williams and Colin McDo-
nald drawing the assists.
But it was a false lead, Hynes
said. We got one, but they dictat-
ed the pace of play. They were
playing really well.
If we didnt turn our own
game around, it was just a matter
of time before they scored. When
youre playing the right way and
doing the right things, youre go-
ing to hang on to it (lead).
Trotter evenedthings at 7:25of
thesecondperiod, gettingbehind
the Penguins defense and slip-
pingthepuckpast Thiessens out-
stretched right leg on a partial
breakaway.
He was sprung loose again in
the third period, netting the
game-winner at 2:27, this time
going to his forehand to beat
Thiessen on a play similar to his
first goal.
They played a very good
game, Hynes said. They play a
certain way, and they dictated
how the game was going to go.
We need to make a couple of
adjustments, first and foremost,
and find a way to play better in all
areas.
Game 2 of the Eastern Confer-
ence semifinal resumes 6 oclock
this evening. The series shifts to

CHICAGO Jrue Holiday
scored 26 points, Lou Williams
added 20 and the Philadelphia
76ers beat Chicago 109-92 on
Tuesday night to even their
first-round series in the Bulls
first game since Derrick Roses
season-ending knee injury.
The superstar point guard
received a standing ovation
and waved to the crowd as he
limped onto the court to pre-
sent the game ball, then
watched from a suite as the
76ers simply blitzed the Bulls
in the third quarter.
They outscored Chicago
36-14 in the period, turning an
eight-point deficit into an 83-69
lead, and pulled even with the
leagues top-seeded team.
Game 3 is Friday in Philadel-
phia.
Holiday was 11 of 15 from
the field, and the Sixers shot
59 percent overall. Williams
came up big, going 8 of 13
after hitting just 1 of 6 shots in
the opener, and Chicago prod-
uct Evan Turner chipped in
with 19 points, seven rebounds
and six assists.
Joakim Noah led the Bulls
with 21 points and eight re-
bounds. John Lucas III scored
15 points, but Carlos Boozer
scored just nine and Luol Deng
finished with eight. More
alarming, the Bulls simply
couldnt stop the Sixers, partic-
ularly in the third quarter.
Turner scored 11 points in
the period, and Philadelphia
wiped out a 55-47 deficit.
Celtics 87, Hawks 80
ATLANTA Paul Pierce
battled through another tough
shooting night to score 36
points and the Boston Celtics
wiped out Atlantas 11-point
lead in the second half even
without Rajon Rondo, stunning
the Hawks 87-80 on Tuesday in
Game 2 of the Eastern Confer-
ence playoffs.
The series is tied 1-1. Game
3 is Friday night in Boston,
and Rondo will be back for the
Celtics in that one, his short-
handed team having claimed
the home-court edge. The
stellar point guard sat out a
one-game suspension for bump-
ing an official in the opener.

Newspaper circulation
higher on digital sales
Circulation at the nations newspa-
pers edged higher for the six months
ended March 31, according to prelimi-
nary figures released Tuesday by the
Audit Bureau of Circulations. The
increases of .68 percent daily and 5
percent Sunday were driven by gains in
digital circulation, which includes
restricted-access websites, tablet and
smartphone apps and e-reader editions,
the trade publication Editor & Publish-
er said.
Circulation of those delivery vehicles
was first counted in the report for
March, 2011, so this is the first compar-
ison based on them.
The Wall Street Journal was again
the top-selling newspaper, with 2.1
million copies, a slight increase from
2011. USA Today reported a combined
1.8 million daily sales. Neither paper
has a Sunday edition.
The New York Times reported just
over 2 million Sunday sales, by far the
most in the nation. The 50 percent
growth was driven by the switch to
paid access to its website and the addi-
tion of mobile apps.
Wal-Mart overtime fine
The Labor Department says Wal-
Mart Stores Inc. is paying $4.8 million
in back wages and damages to more
than 4,500 employees nationwide for
unpaid overtime.
The Bentonville, Ark.-based compa-
ny is also paying nearly $464,000 in
civil penalties for violating federal
overtime laws.
The violations cover current and
former managers at Wal-Mart vision
centers and certain security personnel
at Wal-Mart Discount Stores, Wal-Mart
Supercenters, Neighborhood Markets
and Sams Club warehouses.
Store debit costs fall
Retailers are paying significantly less
every time a customer swipes a debit
card under a rule capping the fees that
banks are allowed to charge.
The Federal Reserve says in a report
Tuesday that the average fee paid by
merchants for debit card transactions
covered by the rule was 24 cents in the
fourth quarter of 2011. That compares
with an average of 43 cents before the
Feds rule took effect Oct. 1.
For most transactions, banks can
charge merchants a maximum 21 cents
for each debit card transaction plus an
additional 0.05 percent of the purchase
price to cover fraud protection costs.

WASHINGTON U.S. manufactur-
inggrewlast monthat thefastest pacein
10 months, suggesting the economy is
healthier thanrecent datahadindicated.
New orders, production and a mea-
sure of hiring all rose. The April survey
from the Institute for Supply Manage-
ment was a hopeful sign ahead of Fri-
days monthlyjobs report andhelpedthe
Dow Jones industrial average end the
day at its highest level in more than four
years.
Thetradegroupof purchasingmanag-
ers said Tuesday that its index of manu-
facturing activity reached 54.8 in April,
the highest level since June. Readings
above 50 indicate expansion.
The ISM manufacturing index is
closely watched in part because its the
first major economic report for each
month. Aprils big gain followed a series
of weaker reports in recent weeks that
showed hiring slowed, applications for
unemployment benefits roseandfactory
output dropped.
This survey will ease concerns that
the softer tone of the incoming news in
recent months marked the start of a re-
newed slowdown in growth, Paul
Dales, an economist at Capital Econom-
ics, saidinanotetoclients. Wethinkthe
latest recovery is made of sterner stuff,
although we doubt it will set the world
alight.
Ameasureof employment intheISMs
survey rose to a 10-month high. That in-
dicates that factories are hiringat a solid
pace.
A gauge of new orders jumped to its
highest level in a year. That could signal
faster productioninthe comingmonths.
Export orders also rose, offsetting wor-
ries that weaker economies in Europe
and China could drag on U.S. exports.
RichBergmann, managing director of
Accentures global manufacturing prac-
tice, saidlargemanufacturersaredriving
U.S. growth. They are pushingtheir sup-
pliers to boost output, which has led
many to hire more workers.
Large companies are also helping
smaller companies intheir supplychain,
Bergmann said, by guaranteeing a cer-
tain level of orders or helping smaller
companies obtain financing to expand.
Theres just a tremendous trickle-
down effect in these industries, Berg-
mann said. Thats a very positive trend
that we think will continue.
Factories account for onlyabout 9per-
cent of total payrolls but added 13 per-
cent of the newjobs last year.

Whenautomakers finishedreporting

Toyota sales rose 12 percent as its in-

cent riseinsales. Itstopsellersincluded
the Ram pickup and Chrysler 200 mid-
size sedan, whichbenefitedfrombigre-
bates of $2,000or more, analysts said.
GM sales fell 8 percent, hurt by new
products and aggressive marketing
from competitors. Ford sales fell 5 per-
cent as demand for its Fiesta subcom-
pact dropped. Many buyers opted for
theFocus small car instead.
GMremainedoptimisticaboutindus-

that could boost employment. When
more people have jobs, or feel good
about hiring, theyre more likely to buy
big-ticket items suchas cars.

percent fromApril 2011, and the lowest
level sinceOctober 2005.

NEW YORK Chesapeake Energy
founder Aubrey McClendon was
stripped of his chairmanship role Tues-
day following shareholder complaints
that his personal business interests
could conflict with
those of the company
he runs.
McClendon will re-
main CEO. The com-
panys board said its
searching for an inde-
pendent chairman.
The board has been
feeling the heat fromshareholders after
reports surfaced that McClendon took
out more than $1 billion in loans to pay
for his stake in the companys wells. He
was allowed to buy those stakes as a
part of his compensation program,
something that had long raised con-
cerns from shareholders.
Some of the loans came froma group
that was also planning to buy Chesa-
peake assets. Investors said McClen-
dons private dealings with the group
could have influenced Chesapeakes de-
cision to sell those assets.
The company said Friday it will end
the investment program in 2014, 18
months ahead of schedule, to elimi-
nate a source of controversy.
McClendon, 52, spent most of his
adult life searching for natural gas and
oil in the U.S. He co-founded Chesa-
peakein1989, turninganinitial $50,000
investment into Americas second-
largest natural gas producer behind Ex-
xon Mobil Corp.
He was Americas top-paid CEO in
2008, receiving compensation worth
$112.5 million. He established himself
as a leading spokesman for the benefits
of natural gas.
When natural gas prices plunged in
2008, Chesapeake stock tumbled 60
percent and McClendon was forced to
sell $550 million of stock to cover bank
demands for repayment of loans.

Did you know
that our
average
temperature
this year in
March was
warmer than it
was in April?
Thats odd.
Records show
that has never
happened
before around
here. Usually
its the other
way around.
April turned
out to be three-
tenths of a
degree cooler.
Today will be
cooler than
Tuesday was,
with overcast
skies and a
good chance
for showers.
Much warmer
air will begin
moving in
Thursday and
sunshine will
help boost
readings well
into the 70s.
Were headed
into the 80s on
Friday, so plan
accordingly.

NATIONAL FORECAST: Scattered showers and thunderstorms look to develop in the warm sector of a
storm system from portions of the Upper Midwest into the Ohio Valley and the Mid-Atlantic. Some of
these storms may be strong to severe. Increased moisture and instability will also help trigger areas
of showers and thunderstorms from the Gulf Coast to South Florida.

THE TIMES LEADER WEDNESDAY, MAY 2, 2012

THIS YEAR
marks the 150th
anniversary of
Cinco de Mayo.
This celebration is
not Mexicos
Independence
Day, as many people mistakenly
believe; rather it commemorates
the victory of outnumbered Mex-
ican forces over France.
Cinco de Mayo is meant to bring
national unity and pride with food,
music, dancing and other festiv-
ities.
The United States has grown
into a diverse nation, and many
cultural traditions have become
integrated into our society. Mex-
ican food offers flavors that satisfy
the palate.
I chose citrus chicken tacos with
avocados and salsa because the
tacos are a traditional recipe that
can be altered to your liking, yet
theyre fast and easy to make. The
citrus flavors blend well with the
hot weather May brings, while the
chicken offers a lean protein that
will provide much-needed energy
for your fiesta.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 pounds chicken
4 tomatoes from the vine, diced
2 large green bell peppers, diced
1 medium Vidalia onion, diced
2 green onions, chopped
8 garlic cloves, peeled and minced
4 ounces fresh cilantro, chopped
1/8 cup red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1 lime
1 lemon
1/2 cup chopped lettuce
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup shredded Monterey Jack
cheese or cheese of your liking
Salt and pepper to taste
10 (6-inch) corn or flour tortillas
Tacos:
1. Bring eight cups of water to boil.
Add chicken for 10 minutes and check
middle (so theres no pink) and place
on cutting board. Let cool for approxi-
mately 10 minutes and shred with
hands.
2. While chicken is boiling, put two
tomatoes, one green pepper and
one-half onion into food processor
with garlic and two ounces cilantro.
Blend until pureed or of liquid consis-
tency.
Place a 9-inch frying pan over
medium heat. Add puree and chicken
and cook for 5 minutes with constant
stirring. Put on low heat and add
vinegar, 1/2 teaspoon oregano, 1/4
teaspoon cumin, half of a squeezed
lime and half of a squeezed lemon.
Add salt and pepper to taste. Let
simmer for 10 minutes.
3. Heat both sides of tortilla in
warm pan
Salsa:
4. Combine remaining tomatoes,
green peppers, onion, garlic, cilantro,
oregano, cumin, lime and lemon into a
mixing bowl. Add salt and pepper to
taste.
5. Serve citrus chicken mixture in
warm tortilla with lettuce, sour cream,
cheese and green onion.

PETE G. WILCOX/THE TIMES LEADER
Chef Thomas Cook prepared these
chicken tacos with citrus salsa at
the Ramada Inn in Wilkes-Barre.
A bit of heat and a lot of sweet make
this mango-topped chocolate honey
cake a fine choice for celebrating Cinco
de Mayo.
Bake the cake in any style Bundt pan
you like. A more conventional tube pan
also would work. You even could divide
the batter between mini Bundt cake
pans for individual servings.
After it cools, the cake is topped with
an easy coffee glaze made by whisking
together instant coffee, vanilla and
powdered sugar. You can substitute
cooled coffee for the 3 tablespoons of
water in the glaze, but you still need to
use the instant coffee, which adds
considerable flavor.
Once topped with mango, leftovers
need to be refrigerated. As an alterna-
tive, glaze the entire cake, cut servings
from it, then top each serving with
mango.

kle it with cocoa powder, turning all around
to coat the inner surfaces of the pan. Tap
out any excess.
In a medium bowl, sift together the flour,
1/3 cup of cocoa powder, baking powder,
cinnamon, cayenne and salt. Set aside.
In a medium saucepan over medium-
high heat, melt together the honey and
butter. Transfer the mixture to the bowl of
a stand mixer and beat on medium-high
until cooled to room temperature, about 3
minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time,
beating between each.
Add a third at a time, beat in the dry
ingredients, scraping down the sides of the
bowl between additions. Spoon the mix-
ture into the prepared pan and bake for 25
minutes, or until a toothpick inserted at
the center of the cake comes out clean.
Allow to cool in the pan for 15 minutes,
then turn out onto a wire rack to cool
completely.
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk to-
gether the water, instant coffee and vanilla
until the coffee granules are completely
dissolved. Whisk in the powdered sugar
until smooth. Drizzle the mixture over the
cake and serve topped with fresh mango.

Sweet meets heat in this Mexican-inspired cake

For The Associated Press
O
nce spring arrives, cooking and eating habits change.
We make way for bright, delicate tastes and move
away from the hearty, longer-cooking vegetables that
carried us through the winter. Change of season,
changeof vegetables. Chefs andhomecooks get inthemoodfor
a little something green.
Pungent wild leeks, tender English
peas, brilliant asparagus and spiky ar-
tichokes fit the bill as they herald the
locally grown goodness that will soon
head our way.
Spring offerings are exciting for
chefs likeJames Rigatoof theRoot res-
taurant in White Lake. At the Root, Ri-
gato now serves dishes with ramps, a
wild leek that is locally foraged, and
fresh English peas he now sources
from California as well as other fresh
veggies fromthe Chefs Garden in Hu-
ron, Ohio.
Its easier to be a chef in the spring
... because everything starts to be-
come more available, Rigato said.
Andpeople tendtowant toeat lighter
fare.
Rigato is all about sourcing ingre-
dients locally when he can. He is now
usingramps andEnglishpeas ina split
pea soup, and more peas in a creamy
pasta dish.
Rigato adds raw ramp greens to the
split pea soup at the end of cooking.
They wilt almost as easily as spin-
ach, he said. He also minces the
stems, sautes them in a little butter
andadds themtothe soup. Ramps add
notes of both onion and garlic in cook-
ing, and a little can go a long way.
I like tokeepvegetable dishes vege-
tarian and bring out their true flavor,
said Jesse Bartol of Sweet Layla June
Catering in Commerce Township,
Mich., a former chef for Weight Watch-
ers and personal chef to Florine Mark.
Vegetables have a wonderful flavor. I
dont think they need the help that
people sometimes try to give them.
Bartol also encourages cooks not to
be intimidated by vegetables such as
artichokes, one of her favorites.
People tend to treat themin a high-
maintenance way and shouldnt, she
said. You just steam, peel the leaves,
reveal the heart, scoop out the inedi-

Serves: 6
Preparation time: 15 minutes

1 cup shelled fresh English peas
or good-quality frozen peas
2 tablespoons olive oil
6 thin slices prosciutto, cut into
slivers
6 cups mixed butter lettuces and
arugula
In small bowl or glass measuring
cup, whisk together all the vi-
naigrette ingredients. Set aside.

needed. Bring a large skillet of
salted water to a boil. Add the
asparagus and boil for 2 to 4 min-
utes, or until crisp tender. Add the
peas during the last minute of
cooking. Do not overcook. Transfer
to a bowl and run cold water over
the asparagus and peas to stop the
cooking.
Meanwhile, heat the olive oil
over medium heat. Add the prosci-
utto and saute until crisp, about 1
minute. Remove to paper towels to
drain.
Arrange lettuce and arugula on
plates. Top with asparagus and
peas. Drizzle with vinaigrette.

EGGS SARDOU
Serves: 4
Preparation time: 30 minutes
Total time: 45 minutes
Eggs Sardou is a creation of
Antoines, one of New Orleans
grand restaurants, where it tradi-
tionally is composed of poached
eggs, artichoke hearts and
creamed spinach topped with
Hollandaise sauce. This version is
from Jesse Bartol, a chef in Com-
merce Township.
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
4 whole artichoke hearts, boiled
until tender, trimmed of choke,
leaves discarded or reserved for
other use
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon distilled white vine-
gar
4 large eggs
Sauteed spinach (see note)
1 cup Hollandaise sauce (see
note)
2 ounces smoked salmon or
smoked trout, cut into thin slices
Paprika for garnish
Chopped chives
In a skillet, melt the butter over
medium-high heat. Add the ar-
tichoke hearts and a pinch of salt
and pepper and cook, stirring, until
just warmed through, 1 to 2 min-
utes. Remove from the heat and
cover to keep warm.
Into a large saute pan or deep
skillet, pour about 2 inches of cold
water and the vinegar. Bring to a
simmer over high heat, then re-
duce the heat so that the surface
of the water barely shimmers.
Break the eggs into individual
saucers, then gently slide them
one at a time into the water and,
with a large spoon, lift the whites
over the yolks. Repeat the lifting
once or twice to completely en-
close each yolk. Poach until the
whites are set and the yolks feel
soft when gently touched, 3 to 4
minutes.
Remove the eggs with a slotted
spoon and place on a large plate.
Arrange the warm artichoke
hearts on each of 4 plates and top
with the sauteed spinach. Lay 1 egg
on top of each bed of spinach and
drizzle with warm Hollandaise
sauce. Garnish with the chopped
smoked salmon, a dusting of papri-
ka and chives; serve immediately.
To saute the spinach: Heat 1 ta-
blespoon olive oil in a large skillet.
Add 1 pound fresh trimmed spinach
and 1 teaspoon minced garlic.
Saute, stirring until wilted, about 1
to 2 minutes. Season with salt and
pepper. Keep warm.
To make the Hollandaise sauce: In
the top of a double boiler or in a
large bowl set over a pot of sim-
mering water, whisk 3 egg yolks
with 2 teaspoons water until the
yolks are thick and pale yellow,
removing from the heat as needed
to prevent the eggs from over-
cooking. Gradually add cup
melted butter, whisking constantly
to thicken. Whisk in 1 teaspoons
fresh lemon juice, teaspoon salt
and pinch of cayenne pepper to
blend. Adjust the seasoning to
taste. Remove from the heat and
cover to keep warm until ready to
serve, stirring occasionally.

June Catering in Commerce
Township.

BACON, PECORINO
AND CREAM RAGOUT
WITH SHRIMP AND PEAS
Serves: 6 (generously)
Preparation time: 30 minutes
Total time: 1 hour
Root restaurant makes its own
bacon from Michigan pork bellies.
You can substitute cubes of good-
quality slab bacon. Chef James
Rigato also uses locally farmed
shrimp.
1 pound slab bacon, cut into
small cubes
1 small to medium onion, peeled,
diced small
1 tablespoon garlic, minced
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
cup Chardonnay
3 cups Guernsey Farms Dairy
cream (substitute milk or half-and-
half)
cup grated Pecorino Romano
cheese, plus more for garnish
Kosher salt and freshly cracked
black pepper to taste
Juice of 1 lemon
16 ounces linguine cooked ac-
cording to package directions
Olive oil
1 pounds large shrimp, peeled
and deveined
4 cups fresh chopped mustard
greens
1 cups lightly blanched English
peas
Fresh parsley, chopped, for
garnish
In a large wide pot, place the
bacon cubes and cook slowly over
low to medium until crispy. Drain
off fat. Add onion to the same pot
and cook until soft. Add garlic. The
moisture from the onions and
garlic should begin to lift the sticky
bits from the bottom of the pot.
Add flour. Stir until flour becomes
absorbed and paste-like, making
sure not to burn it.
Once flour is absorbed, add wine
and cook until it is absorbed, about
a minute. Add the cream. Reduce
the heat to low and stir often until
thick and heated through, about 30
minutes. Stir in the Pecorino Ro-
mano and season with kosher salt
and freshly cracked black pepper
to taste. At very end, squeeze
lemon juice into sauce. Taste again
and adjust if necessary. Keep sauce
warm.
Meanwhile, cook the linguine in
boiling salted water until al dente.
In a large skillet, heat a tablespoon
or so of olive oil. Add the shrimp
and saute lightly until opaque. Add
a splash of white wine to the pan.
Add the sauce, fresh mustard
greens and peas. Add cooked pasta
right from the water straight into
the skillet. Cook together for about
a minute adding a splash of olive
oil, fresh chopped parsley and a
light sprinkling of Pecorino. Trans-
fer to a bowl, making sure to place
the shrimp on top of pasta. Top
with shaved Pecorino and a drizzle
of olive oil.

HOW TO CONTACT:
Dear Abby: PO Box 69440, Los Ange-
les, CA 90069
For more Sudoku go to www.timesleader.com
O N T H E W E B
Dear Abby: On a
recent airline flight, a
tall man who sat be-
hind me had his left
leg out in the aisle
during the trip. He
was wearing shorts,
and you could see his
large tattoo of a naked woman on his
thigh. The drawing was very explicit,
and there was no way to avoid seeing
it because passengers had to cross
over his leg to reach the bathroom.
How do you explain this kind of
art to children? Would the airline
have the right to ask him to cover the
tattoo if it was objectionable?
Offended Traveler From New York
Dear Offended: Because body art
could be classified as freedom of
expression, Im not sure they do.
However, someones leg protruding
into the aisle might be considered
a safety issue. It would also impede
food and beverage carts traveling up
and down the aisle. Because you were
offended, I hope you averted your
gaze if you needed to make more than
one trip to the lavatory, and if there
were children in tow, that you didnt
call their attention to the picture.
Dear Abby: I had an urgent piece
of mail to get to the post office. My
sister called the postmistress, who
agreed to stay open for her to deliver
it. In the meantime, I found two other
pieces of mail that required checks,
quickly wrote them out and gave the
three envelopes to my sister, who
rushed them to the post office.
Upon her return, she showed me
her vehicle, which had a deep gash
running along one side because she
had backed down the driveway too
quickly, and had scraped the car
against the stone post. She thinks I
should pay half the cost of repair be-
cause I was involved.
I think it was her carelessness, and
therefore, I should not have to pay.
Im not angry, just confused by her
reasoning because the same thing
happened to me when I ran an errand
for her, but I paid on my own for my
carelessness. What do you think?
Thinks Differently in Tennessee
Dear Thinks Differently: I think you
should remind your sister that when
the same thing happened to you
while running an errand for her, you
assumed the responsibility for paying
for it. For her to say that you were
involved is stretching the truth.
Shes trying to guilt you into paying.
Dear Abby: Im a 20-year-old female
junior in college. I am intelligent,
attractive and friendly, and I want
to remain a virgin until Im married.
This is not because of religious rea-
sons. I have had a few relationships
I thought were serious, but I ended
up getting dumped for a looser girl
each time, which really hurts.
My family and friends dont un-
derstand that waiting until marriage
is part of who I am. Ironically, I was
raised to think this was proper, but
once I reached a certain age, every-
one seemed to change their minds.
Im not looking to get married for
at least five years, which means a
long wait for anyone who wants to
date me. Am I going to be alone for-
ever just because I wont jump into
bed with a guy before were married?
Principled in Ann Arbor, Mich.
Dear Principled: Not forever. I ad-
mire you for adhering to your values
and so will the man who marries you.
DEAR ABBY
A D V I C E
Mans tattoo causes quite a stir among his fellow airline passengers
To receive a collection of Abbys most memo-
rable and most frequently requested po-
ems and essays, send a business-sized, self-
addressed envelope, plus check or money
order for $3.95 ($4.50 in Canada) to: Dear
Abbys Keepers, P.O. Box 447, Mount Mor-
ris, IL 61054-0447. (Postage is included.)
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Get
right to the point, and tell peo-
ple what you want from them.
Chances are they will be grateful
for your directness, and theyll
think more of you because you
had the guts to operate in this
manner.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
Politicians arent the only ones
with platforms. You have a plat-
form, too, though maybe you
havent given the idea much
thought. Now is the time to do
so. Figure out what you stand
for.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You know
what you need, but you may be
timid about communicating it. It
will be better to inform others of
your intentions, instead of asking
permission.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
Apologizing for unintentional
minor errors that dont hurt
anyone will erode the confid-
ence others have in you, not
to mention your confidence in
yourself!
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Someone
may have a higher position than
you, but it doesnt make that
person better than you. You
treat everyone equally.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). It will
take a greater than normal effort
to be present to certain situa-
tions. Perhaps the circumstance
is tedious, too challenging, or
just plain boring.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). A teacher
will help you on a spiritual level,
though it isnt necessarily the
aim you are going for. Anything
that helps you grow into the
person you want to be will also
expand your spirit.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
Theres a pressure building
around an upcoming event. You
will be giving a performance
of some kind. Perhaps this is
informal in nature, but its still a
performance.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
Even though you know that love
is the opposite of fear, you dont
go around hugging sharks. Great
whites are best admired from a
great distance. The same goes
for potentially dangerous people.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). The
pressure is on. So just remember
who you are. You have success-
fully completed jobs like this sev-
eral times in the past. You can
and will do it again. Rally for the
best attitude you can muster.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). This
afternoon brings a shift into a
more creative headspace. Youll
bypass your analytical mind and
tap into a wellspring of energy.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You
are conscientious about what
you do, and youll feel inclined
to work hard. Those with similar
responsibilities may rely too
heavily on you to pick up the
slack.
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (May 2). The
next six weeks are a learning
process. Stay the course this
year, no matter what tempta-
tions, distractions and challenges
arise and youll succeed. What
you need to know is revealed
in June. Solutions to domestic
issues make life more enjoy-
able in July. Relationships get
stronger in September through
shared adventure. Capricorn and
Aries adore you. Your lucky num-
bers are: 5, 13, 49, 38 and 16.
