Pizano, who could not be reached for comment, informed clerk of court staffers about his departure on Thursday afternoon. County election board member John Newman said Pizano called him around 4 p.m. Thursday so he would hear the news from him. By JENNIFER LEARN-ANDES [email protected] Luzerne County officials must scramble to provide election office oversight as the Nov. 6 general nears because acting election bureau director Tom Pizano unexpectedly submitted paperwork Thursday announcing his retirement effective Monday. Pizano, who held elected and appointed county posts for a period spanning four decades, also was interim clerk of courts. He added the election office to his duties in April, when Leonard Piazza was terminated as election director.

Soper has headed the local casino since Mohegan Sun took over Pocono Downs in 2005, and has overseen significant expan- sion of the casino during his tenure. He supervised its opening as a slots-only facility in 2006, the addition of table games in 2010 and the groundbreaking on a new $50 million 238-room hotel Soper and convention center at the Plains Township property this year. “It’s been a good ride, and the property has certainly evolved over the past six years,” Soper said. “But I’m one person amongst 1,700 that are responsible for its growth.” Four of 5 must be replaced, and new members must vote again on every issue of 2012. Luzerne County Controller Walter Griffith has discovered an error that will boot out four of the five county Flood Protection Authority members and force their replacements to vote again on every decision the authority has made this year, officials say. “It’s something that never should have happened. We’re doing Griffith what we have to now to get it straightened out,” said county Solicitor Vito DeLuca. At this point, county Planning/Zoning DeLuca Director Adrian Merolli is the only board member permitted to serve on the authority, which oversees the Wyoming Valley Levee and a levee fee that funds the flood control system’s maintenance and upkeep. County Councilman Stephen A. Urban, who serves as authority chairman, and citizen board members William Falls, Doug Ayers and Kevin O’Brien cannot serve because their appointments were invalid, DeLuca said. The problem stems from article incorporation papers that must be approved by the state, he said. The papers said five people must sit on the board: the planning/zoning director, assistant county engineer and three commissioners. Anticipating the elimination of the three commissioners and other home rule changes, the prior county government administration said the incorporation papers were changed to allow five citizens to serve in the unpaid seats. Merolli and Urban stayed on in their unexpired terms. Prior commissioners selected Falls and Ayers at their last meeting in December 2011, and council members appointed O’Brien after a public interview of applicants.

PAGE 2A ➛ timesleader.com FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 2012 THE TIMES LEADER www.timesleader.com Vatican scoffs at ‘married Jesus’ manuscript Some scholars question the authenticity of a fragment in which Jesus refers to a wife. By NICOLE WINFIELD Associated Press VATICAN CITY — The Vatican newspaper has added to the doubts surrounding Harvard University’s claim that a 4th century Coptic papyrus fragment showed that some early Christians believed that Jesus was married, declaring it a “fake.” The newspaper, L’Osservatore Romano, published an article Thursday by leading Coptic scholar Alberto Camplani and an accompanying editorial by the newspaper’s editor, Giovanni Maria Vian, an expert in early Christianity. They both cited concerns expressed by other scholars about the fragment’s authenticity and the fact that it was purchased on the market without a known archaeological provenance. “At any rate, a fake,” Vian titled his editorial, which criticized Harvard for creating a “clamorous” media frenzy over the fragment by handing the scoop to two U.S. newspapers only to see “specialists immediately question it.” Karen King, a professor of early Christianity at Harvard Divinity School, announced the finding last week at an international congress on Coptic studies in Rome. The text, written in Coptic and probably translated from a 2nd century Greek text, contains a dialogue in which Jesus refers to “my wife,” whom he identifies as Mary. The issue has had resonance since Christian tradition has long held that Jesus was unmarried, and any evidence to the contrary would fuel current debates about Avoca must pay $5,000 for project AP PHOTO This ancient piece of Coptic script contains a reference to Jesus having a wife. It has provoked controversy. celibacy for priests and the role of women in the church. As such, it’s not surprising that the Vatican would challenge the claim. King has said the fragment doesn’t prove Jesus was married, only that some early Christians thought he was. She has acknowl- edged the doubts raised by her colleagues and says the fragment’s ink will be tested to help determine when it was written. Some scholars attending the conference questioned the authenticity of the fragment, noting its form and grammar looked unconvincing and suspicious. Oth- ers said it was impossible to deduce the meaning of it given the fragmented nature of the script. Camplani, a professor at Rome’s La Sapienza university who helped organize the conference, cited those concerns and added his own, specifically over King’s interpretation of the text — assuming it is real. Rather than taking the reference to a wife literally, he wrote, scholars routinely take such references in primitive Christian and biblical literature metaphorically, to symbolize the spiritual union between Jesus and his disciples. The absence of any reference to Jesus being married in historic documents “seems more significant than the literal interpretation of a few expressions from the new text, which by my reading should be understood purely in a symbolic sense,” he wrote.

PennDOT requires the bor- By WILLIAM BELL Times Leader Correspondent AVOCA – Borough officials learned Thursday night the borough will have to pay at least $5,000 to lower a sewer line under Plane Street. James Kropiewnicki, Pennsylvania Department of Transportation utility relocation administrator, told council the line must be moved because of the $40 million Interstate 81 interchange project near the WilkesBarre/Scranton International Airport. He said PennDOT’s project must have a new sewer line cross the borough’s, and the original needs to be reconstructed deeper. He said that unlike a public utility that would normally pay the cost for a conflict such as this, PennDOT would only reimburse the borough for COURT BRIEF PLAINS TWP. – A man accused of leaving the scene of a crash that claimed two lives waived his right to a preliminary hearing. Walter Paul Raven, 49, of Industrial Drive, Jenkins Township, waived two counts of accidents involving death and one count each of tampering with evidence, driving with a suspended license and five traffic violations to Luzerne County Court. He remains jailed at the county prison for lack of $150,000 bail. Raven was scheduled for a preliminary hearing today. Luzerne County detectives and Pittston Township police allege Raven drove away after a crash involving a motorcy- ough pay the costs of the project up front and then request the reimbursement. If the borough does not agree to design, bid and construct the project, PennDOT would complete it as part of its interchange project. However, having the state bid the project might result in higher costs than if it were bid locally. After much discussion concerning the borough’s limited finances and current financial situation due to the Centax tax collection problems, council decided to start the process. Council passed a resolution authorizing its engineer to prepare and submit the initial project paperwork, after review of all documents by the borough solicitor, with the stipulation the borough would not provide its final approval without confirmation of the 90 percent reimbursement level. cle, operated by Donnie Pizano, 38, of Plains Township, on state Route 315 in front of McDonald’s on Sept. 2. Pizano and a passenger on the motorcycle, Robin Walsh, 39, of Plains Township, were killed. They were pronounced dead at the scene by the Luzerne County Coroner’s Office. Authorities allege Raven and his friend, Donnie Antonini, 46, of Wilkes-Barre, used a power washer to wash the vehicle several hours after the crash, according to arrest records. Antonini is facing a charge of tampering with evidence in county court. Raven is scheduled to be formally arraigned on the charges on Nov. 30. Attorney Anthony Moses represents Raven. MINNEAPOLIS — Police said the shooter who opened fire inside a Minneapolis sign company was found dead from a self-inflicted gunshot wound Thursday and was among “several” people killed in the incident. “We do have several victims inside that are dead,” Minneapolis Police Deputy Chief Kris Arneson said during a news conference outside the company’s office. When pressed to say how many, Arneson refused and said police were still investigating. Police had previously said at least two people were killed and four were wounded during the shootings at Accent Signage Systems, which is in a largely residential area on the city’s north side. Arneson wouldn’t release details about the victims, but said the shooter’s body was found inside the building.

By ROBERT JABLON and ANTHONY McCARTNEY Associated Press LOS ANGELES — An actor whose character died a violent death on the TV drama “Sons of Anarchy” plunged to his death in a driveway after apparently killing his landlady and attacking neighbors near Hollywood, police said Thursday. Johnny Lewis, who played Kip “Half-Sack” Epps in the FX show, is the only suspect in the death of 81-year-old Catherine Davis, according to Los Angeles police. Authorities found them dead Wednesday morning after neighbors reported a woman screaming inside the home, Cmdr. An- drew Smith said. Lewis’ death ended in a turbulent nearly 10-month span during which he was repeatLewis edly arrested and officials expressed concerns about his mental health and the danger he posed to others. The home where Davis was found had been ransacked, glass was shattered and a dead cat was found. Neighbors said a man had jumped a fence and assaulted a painter and homeowner next door. The body of Lewis, 28, was found in the driveway. He could have jumped or fallen from the roof, garage or balcony, or tumbled down stairs from a patio area, Smith said. It appears Davis had been beaten, Smith added. Because of the circumstances, investigators were checking whether Lewis was on drugs or had mental health issues, Smith said. The deaths came about four months after a probation official expressed grave concern about Lewis’ mental health. The report was prepared in a case in which Lewis was accused of attempting to break into the home of a woman in Santa Monica, Calif., and it described him as a transient. That case came about six weeks after Lewis hit two men over the head with a bottle during a fight. Lewis was released from Los Angeles County Jail a week ago, according to court records. He had pleaded no contest to assault with a deadly weapon and attempted burglary in separate cases, according to the records. Workplace shooting at Minnesota company leaves at least 2 dead By AMY FORLITI Associated Press DETAILS ple from the scene, all in critical condition, spokeswoman Christine Hill said. She said the hospital wasn’t expecting more patients with critical injuries. Officers received a 911 call around 4:30 p.m. from inside the business from someone reporting that there was a shooting. Dozens of squad cars and police vehicles were still surrounding the business in the Bryn Mawr neighborhood by Thursday evening. Traffic was stopped on a nearby bridge along Penn Avenue, where earlier in the day law enforcement officers had rifles drawn and pointed at a park below. People from the neighborhood milled around but deputies kept them back. Marques Jones, 18, of Minneapolis, said he was outside a building down the street having his picture taken when he and his photographer heard gunfire that sounded close. “We heard about four to five gunshots,” Jones said. “We were shocked at what happened and we just looked at each other. We all just took off running to our vehicles.” Accent Signage Systems’ website says the company makes interior signage and listed its founder as Reuven Rahamim. A phone message left at the business and at a residential listing for Rahamim was not immediately returned. “Very sad situation in Bryn Mawr,” Mayor R.T. Rybak tweeted Thursday afternoon. “Please stay away and let the police do their work.” Missed Paper ........................829-5000 Obituaries...............................970-7224 Advertising ...............................970-7101 Advertising Billing ...............970-7328 Classified Ads.........................970-7130 Newsroom...............................970-7242 Vice President/Executive Editor Joe Butkiewicz ...............................970-7249 Asst.

WILCOX/THE TIMES LEADER Peter Jurack, unit chief, FBI’s Safe Streets and Gang Unit, explains links to crime in his presentation during Thursday’s gang awareness information session at Arthur Street Elementary in Hazleton. Ganging up against gangs Feds partnering with state and local police to multiply impact against street gang crime, FBI agent says. By STEVE MOCARSKY [email protected] HAZLETON – Two words: “Force multipliers.” Those are the two most important words state Sen. John Yudichak, D-Plymouth Twp., said he took away Thursday from the fourth in a series of “Operation GangUp” community discussions to help combat gang activity in Northeastern Pennsylvania. The event’s main speaker, Peter James “P.J.” Jurack, chief of the FBI’s Safe Streets and Gang Unit, had told the approximately 80 audience members in the Arthur Street Elementary School auditorium there are only 829 special agents in 164 gang task forces across the country. “That’s a Band-Aid on a gaping wound,” Jurack said after noting that gangs are spreading to rural communities and operating not in just narcotic trafficking, but in everything from mortgage fraud to prostitution. “We cannot do it alone, which is why we partner with our state and locals to have the maximum impact. Almost like a special forces group, we work as force multipliers to do as much as we can, whether it’s on the local level, the state ON THE NET Learn more about Operation GangUp at www.operationgangup.com. level or the federal level,” Jurack said. That theme of partnering to multiply the force or impact against organized street gang crime was restated and stressed in different ways by each speaker on the eight-member panel throughout the two-hour discussion, beginning with an introduction by U.S. Rep. Lou Barletta. Barletta, R-Hazleton, said police began noticing gang activity in the city when he See GANGS, Page 8A W-B approves energy-saving, Sterling moves Council OKs $5.9 million contract with Johnson Controls, approves $260,000 for hotel demolition. By JERRY LYNOTT [email protected] WILKES-BARRE – City Council on Thursday night unanimously approved a $5.9 million contract with Johnson Controls Inc. to implement a comprehensive energy savings plan involving upgrades of streetlights, installation of new toilets in city buildings and replacement of a fuel pump at the Department of Public Works to protect against theft. The New Cumberland-based office of the global company will manage and oversee the city’s energy usage for 20 years and guarantee savings of $2.9 million over the length of the performance contract. Residents Sam Troy and Bob Kadlu- boski questioned the deal and were told it was in the best interest of the city. Butch Frati, operations director of the city, said Johnson Controls already supplies the services and equipment and asked to analyze where savings could be made after the air conditioning system at police headquarters broke down and was replaced with a temporary fix costing between $8,000 and $9,000 a month. “They are the largest performance and guarantee contract company in the nation. It’s in writing,” Frati said of the guaranteed savings. The plan makes it possible for the city to replace the air conditioning unit at police headquarters and a pumping station in the Brookside section and pay for other improvements. But Kadluboski, a frequent critic of the administration of Mayor Tom Leighton, warned council to be wary and recalled the canceled plans by the city and its parking authority to lease its parking as- sets with the intent to raise $20 million to pay down debt, make infrastructure improvements and address safety issues. “I’m asking council be cautious on this. It sounds too good to be true,” Kadluboski said. But council voted 5-0 for the Johnson Controls contract and for the city to work with Luzerne County and CityVest in the demolition of the Hotel Sterling. The city will pay $260,000 and the county will contribute $232,729 to raze the downtown landmark. Bids have been obtained to tear down the building and a developer has submitted a proposal for the property. With the pending demolition there will be other instances of trespassing, said Brian Shiner of Kingston. Teenagers got inside and onto the roof of the building where they had their picture taken, he said. See COUNCIL, Page 8A UGI Energy Services will appeal a zoning decision blocking construction of a natural gas compressor station in West Wyoming, a spokeswoman confirmed Thursday. On Sept. 4 the three-member Luzerne County Zoning Hearing Board denied the company’s request for a special exception for the compressor station and a variance for an associated 100-foot communications tower. The company is allowed 30 days, or until Oct. 4, to appeal the board’s ruling to the Luzerne County Court of Common Pleas. The company “is in fact planning to appeal that zoning ruling,” company regulatory affairs manager Lillian Harris said. An appeal had not been filed by the end of the business day Thursday, according to county court records. On Wednesday UGI Energy Services withdrew its application for an air quality permit for the compressor station. “The DEP air permit withdrawal … is not an indicator that we are not planning to file that appeal,” Harris said. Department of Environmental Protection spokeswoman Colleen Connolly said Wednesday that UGI Energy Services can refile its air quality permit application at any time. DEP plans to hold a public hearing before issuing a decision on that permit, she said. UGI Energy Services wants to build the compressor station in an A1 agricultural zone off Fire Cut Road as part of a 27.5-mile natural gas pipeline that will tap into the Transco interstate pipeline in Luzerne County. It needs a special exception because compressor stations are not a permitted use in A1 agricultural districts under the county zoning ordinance. A special exception is a use that is envisioned by the governing zoning ordinance while a variance is required for a use outside the ordinance, according to zoning board member Larry Newman. Opponents argued at an August hearing that the UGI compressor station did not fit the definition of a utility building and yard, the only special exception use allowed in an A1 district that could apply to such a project. The more than 100 area residents attending the hearing also raised concerns about the volume of emissions the station would produce, its potential impact on public health, its effect on property values, emergency access routes and storm water runoff.

The candidates’ debate spread across the airways in Virginia and a handful of other swing states where the campaign is being waged in its final days. Obama released the latest in a series of new ads his campaign has produced featuring a secret recording of Romney saying that 47 percent of Americans believe they are victims and are dependent on government. The latest spot features audio of Romney speaking over photos of people who might fit into that 47 percent category: women with children, veterans, Hispanics and working-class women. Obama also released a lengthy twominute commercial in which he speaks into the camera and describes a “new economic patriotism” that he says will create 1 million manufacturing jobs, cut oil imports and hire thousands of new teachers. Both ads are set to air in New Hampshire, Virginia, Florida, Ohio, Iowa, Nevada and Colorado.

Although Election Day is six weeks away, ballots are already being cast in some of those swing states. Obama drove home his commercial’s message at the rally, promoting the “new economic patriotism” as rooted in a belief that a growing economy begins with a strong middle class. “I don’t think we can get very far with leaders who write off half the nation as a bunch of victims, who never take responsibility for their own lives,” Obama said. Romney argued Obama doesn’t deserve another chance to improve the economy, pointing to the Commerce Department’s announcement hours earlier of sluggish economic growth in the last quarter. “Our economy needs to be reinvigorated,” he said. “We can’t afford four more years of the last four years.” “I believe that faced with a clear red line, Iran will back down — and it will give more time for sanctions and diplomacy.” -- Benjamin Netanyahu Winning $202M ticket winning $202 million Powerball A ticket was purchased at a convenience store in the suburban Des Moines city of Bondurant, but nobody had claimed it by midday Thursday. Iowa lottery officials encourage people to consult with an attorney or financial planner before stepping forward, so some delay in naming a winner isn’t surprising. The prize is the second giant Powerball jackpot sold in Iowa this year. Iowa requires public disclosure of lottery winners’ names. The single ticket matched the six numbers drawn on Wednesday night. They are: 13, 26, 39, 41, 42 and the Powerball number 10. More give testimony before judge who could decide state law’s fate before election. By MARC LEVY Associated Press NASHVILLE, TENN. Kids sought after fire The fire was intense and quickly collapsed the walls of the Tennessee farmhouse. Firefighters spent several hours battling the flames at the house that sat far back from the road and not near a fire hydrant, but they were unable to save the elderly couple who lived there. Now authorities are trying to piece together what may have happened to two children the couple were raising in the home but whose remains were not found in the rubble. The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation was sifting through fire debris Thursday, a day after agents issued an endangered child alert for the children, 9-year-old Chloie Leverette and 7-yearold Gage Daniel. The two children were initially believed to have perished in the intense fire, which firefighters battled overnight Sunday and early Monday. BEIRUT Syrian text: ‘Game over’ Syrian authorities sent text messages over cellphones nationwide Thursday with a message for rebels fighting President Bashar Assad’s regime: “Game over.” The messages signed by the Syrian Arab Army also urged the rebels to surrender their weapons and warned the countdown to evict foreign fighters has begun. Syrians say they began receiving the messages a day after rebels bombed a military command center in Damascus — a major security breach of the heavily guarded capital that highlighted the regime’s growing vulnerability in the face of a rebellion growing in confidence and capabilities. LOS ANGELES Mars rover finds old stream Scientists said Thursday NASA’s newest Mars rover has found signs that a stream once flowed across the surface near the site where it landed. Curiosity touched down in a crater near the Martian equator last month. The red planet today is dusty and dry but scientists think it was once warmer and wetter. Evidence of an ancient stream came from analyzing the size and shapes of pebbles and gravel near Gale Crater. Mission scientists said Thursday it appeared the water was fast-moving and deep. Images from space have provided hints of a watery past at Curiosity’s landing site. The latest discovery on the ground confirms that. Voter ID horror stories shared AP PHOTO Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu shows an illustration as he describes his concerns over Iran’s nuclear ambitions during his address to the 67th session of the United Nations General Assembly at U.N. headquarters Thursday. Israeli leader: Stop Iran Netanyahu says Iran 70 percent of way toward making nuclear bomb. By ARON HELLER Associated Press UNITED NATIONS — Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned Thursday that Iran will have enough enriched uranium to make a nuclear bomb by next summer and urged the world to draw a clear “red line” to stop it in its tracks. Saying it was getting “late, very late” to stop Iran, Netanyahu flashed a diagram showing the progress Iran has made toward creating a bomb. He said Iran had already completed the first stage of uranium enrichment, and then he drew his own red line on the diagram to highlight the point of no return — the completion of the second stage and 90 percent enrichment. “Iran is 70 percent of the way there and ... well into the second stage. By next summer, at current enrichment rates, they will have finished the medium enrichment and move on to the final stage,” Netanyahu said. “From there it is only a few more weeks before they have enriched enough for a bomb.” Netanyahu has repeatedly argued that time is running out to stop the Islamic Republic from becoming a nuclear power. “I believe that faced with a clear red line, Iran will back down — and it will give more time for sanctions and diplomacy,” the Israeli prime minister said. “Red lines don’t lead to war, red lines prevent war ... nothing could imperil the world more than a nuclear-armed Iran.” Netanyahu’s speech marks perhaps his final plea before Israel takes matters into its own hands. Israeli leaders have issued a series of warnings in recent weeks suggesting that if Iran’s uranium enrichment program continues it may soon stage a unilateral military strike, flouting even American wishes. The Obama administration has urgently sought to hold off Israeli military action, which would likely result in the U.S. being pulled into a conflict and cause regionwide mayhem on the eve of American elections. Israel considers a nuclear-armed Iran to be an existential threat, citing Iranian denials of the Holocaust, its calls for Israel’s destruction, its development of missiles capable of striking the Jewish state and its support for hostile Arab militant groups. Poll shows third of public fears police use of drones By JOAN LOWY Associated Press WASHINGTON — More than a third of Americans worry their privacy will suffer if drones like those used to spy on U.S. enemies overseas become the latest police tool for tracking suspected criminals at home, according to an Associated Press-National Constitution Center poll. Congress has directed the Federal Aviation Administration to come up with safety regulations that will clear the way for routine domestic use of unmanned aircraft within the next three years. The government is under pressure from a wide range of interests to open U.S. skies to drones. Oil companies want them to monitor pipelines. Environmentalists want them to count sea lions on remote islands. Farmers want them to fly over crops with sensors that can detect which fields are wet and which need watering. They’re already being used to help fight forest fires. And the list goes on. State and local police departments say that in many cases drones are cheaper, more practical and more effective than manned aircraft. Most of them would be small drones, generally weighing less than 55 pounds. They could be used, for example, to search for missing children or to scout a location ahead of a AP FILE PHOTO This Vanguard Defense Industries photo shows a drone with Montgomery County, Texas, SWAT team members.

But privacy advocates caution that drones equipped with powerful cameras, including the latest infrared cameras that can “see” through walls, listening de- vices and other informationgathering technology raise the specter of a surveillance society in which the activities of ordinary citizens are monitored and recorded by the authorities. HARRISBURG — A judge weighing whether to stop a new Pennsylvania law requiring voters to show photo identification heard testimony Thursday from people who told of making numerous trips to driver’s license centers to confront clerks confused by a bureaucratic maze of IDs, requirements and paperwork. After being rejected for a photo ID on her fourth trip to a driver’s license center, Doris Clark, 68, Simpson has finally hinted that an screamed: “I’m injunction is handicapped. I’ve done all I possible, but can do and I’m said he would not going to not issue his vote.” She told the decision in judge she then court Thursthreatened to day report how she’d been treated, prompting clerks in the Philadelphia center to sit down with her and help her get an ID. Clark’s story was similar to others Thursday, some of whom received crucial help from people with third-party organizations, including a labor union and a community improvement group in Pittsburgh that had deployed people to driver’s license centers to help voters get an ID. Opponents of the new law want an injunction stopping it from taking effect in the Nov. 6 presidential election, and hope the testimony persuades Commonwealth Court Judge Robert Simpson that the state is not making photo IDs easy enough to access or that the requirement poses a risk of someone losing the ability to vote. Simpson has hinted that an injunction is possible, but said he would not issue his decision in court Thursday, the second and final day of testimony in the latest chapter of a legal challenge to the 6-month-old law. Simpson is under orders from the state Supreme Court to halt the law by next Tuesday — just five weeks before the election — if he finds the state has not met the law’s promise of providing free and easy access to a photo ID or if he believes it will prevent any registered voters from casting a ballot. The law, among the toughest in the nation, has sparked debate over voting rights and has become a partisan lightning rod in the presidential contest.

By SHEENA DELAZIO [email protected] WILKES-BARRE – A man and woman sentenced in February on charges they abused a teen boy by forcing him to touch the woman inappropriately are facing probation violation charges after a probation officer found they possessed pornography, took a birthday outing at a local amusement park and had inappropriate contact with their dog. James Antonelli, 68, of Sugarloaf, and his wife, Jennie Marie Moore, 48, with a last known address of Ashley, were sentenced in February to 30 months probation in a case in which prosecutors say the boy, now17, was abused by Antonelli and Moore beginning in April 2007. Antonelli pleaded no contest to a charge of criminal conspiracy to commit indecent assault while Moore pleaded no contest to indecent assault. Judge David Lupas ordered the two to register under Megan’s Law for a period of 10 years and to have no contact with minors or places minors frequent. A probation officer said he learned of the violations in a phone conversation and visit. According to the Luzerne County probation department, on June 6, Moore called the probation office and admitted that she and Antonelli were having sex with their Golden Retriever. “(Antonelli) and his wife put themselves in danger by having sex with a dog who was not vaccinated,” a violation report says. Probation officers also found pornographic images on a computer belonging to the couple and said videos of pornography including dogs, horses and adults were found at Antonelli’s home. On Aug. 3, the probation office said the two went to Knoebel’s Amusement Park in Elysburg to celebrate Moore’s birthday, also a violation of their probation since they are not permitted to be in places children frequent. Antonelli also failed to pay $100 towards restitution owed in the case, the violation report says. A hearing is scheduled for Oct. 26 before Judge David Lupas. Moore and Antonelli could be resentenced in the case. The couple’s attorney, James Scallion, could not be reached for comment. In the case in which Moore and Antonelli were originally sentenced, the boy told police that sometimes he was locked out of a residence when it was cold and rainy, and he was forced by Antonelli to perform a sex act on Moore. The boy said he was assaulted if the act was unsatisfactory. Sheena Delazio, a Times Leader staff writer, may be reached at 8297235. CLARK VAN ORDEN/THE TIMES LEADER Entertainer and speaker Andrew W. K. talks about partying with students at Luzerne County Community College in Nanticoke. At LCCC, it’s Partying 101 Clever mobile app nearing By EDWARD LEWIS [email protected] NANTICOKE – Calling himself the Professor of Partying, Andrew W. K. never removed his sunglasses Thursday when he addressed a standing-roomonly crowd of about 250 students at Luzerne County Community College. The rock singer, entertainer and motivational speaker is the pitchman for a soon-to-be released mobile app called SnipStamp, which allows friends looking for a party to share information. The app was created by LCCC alumnus Gerard Durling of Pittston and Jeremy Romani of Wilkes-Barre. It is scheduled to launch next week. “It was a party just driving here from New York City,” Andrew W.K. told the crowd. As students packed a double classroom, Andrew W. K., whose online biography gives his name as Andrew WilkesKrier, stood up from behind a small desk, removed his jacket and was greeted by a loud applause. Holding a yardstick, he announced he was there to lecture the students on how to find a party and party hard. “There are no rules; it’s about enjoying what you do,” he said. “The main point of partying is joy. Partying should be exciting.” Andrew W. K. was the right man to lecture the students about partying. His first album in 2001 titled “I Get Wet” had the hit song “Party Hard,” which was featured on the EA Sports 2003 video game Madden NFL. After a 10-minute lecture about partying, Durling and Romani explained the workings of the SnipStamp app before Andrew W.K. opened the lecture to questions. Question: What kind of music do you recommend for a great party? “I wouldn’t choose a pipe organ,” Andrew W. K. said, drawing laughs from the students. “Anything that makes you feel good is a good party.” Question: Have you ever partied too hard? “Not yet. I have guardian angels. I have several; they work in rotating shifts.” Question: What advice do you have for a student who doesn’t have time because of classes, work and sleep? “Give one of those things up.” The lecture was titled “Partying 101” but attendance did not earn credit. WILKES-BARRE – Aloysius McLaughlin was the backbone of his family, prosecutors said Wednesday. A loving husband, father, grandfather and uncle who was taken from his family on June 30, 2011, when he was struck by a vehicle driven by 34-year-old Karen McCann. “If I would have known I hit Mr. McLaughlin that day, I would have stopped,” McCann, of Wilkes-Barre, said before she was sentenced to four to eight years in state prison Thursday. “I did not know I hit him … I am very sorry.” In July, McCann pleaded guilty to a dozen charges, including homicide by vehicle while driving under the influence. Prosecutors say McLaughlin, 63, was working as a landscaper in front of a home at 173 Third Ave., Kingston, at the time of the incident. Police said McCann was driving a Chevrolet Trailblazer that struck McLaughlin. He later died at a hospital of multiple traumatic injuries, according to prosecutors. Prosecutors said McCann had cocaine and prescription medications in her system at the time. A co-worker of McLaughlin’s said he saw the vehicle strike McLaughlin, and he ran after the SUV, attempting to have McCann stop. Assistant district attorneys Alexis Falvello and Jarrett Ferentino showed McCann and a packed courtroom full of family and friends, photos of McLaughlin’s life. Pictures of McLaughlin – or “Wishy” as he was known as among family and friends – with his four grandchildren; with his wife, Rosemary; at family gather- ings and holidays; at weddings and on vacation at the beach. “You took something so precious to McCann me,” McLaughlin’s daughter, Tamara Sapack, noting her father would have celebrated his 65th birthday last Wednesday. Sapack heard crying that night and found her young daughter, Julia, in her bedroom. “ ‘I miss poppy,’ ” Sapack said her daughter told her. “I forgive you, but you need to be punished,” Sapack said, adding she believes McCann needs help and hopes she can turn her life around. “(McLaughlin) was truly an innocent victim,” Ferentino said. “He was retired and working … to help his family … and his life was cut short.” Falvello said she was concerned because McCann has “continually deflected” responsibility. “She knew what she was doing and what she had done,” she said. Falvello said McCann is a danger to the community with her substance abuse problems that span more than a 20-year period. McCann had previously been charged with driving under the influence and had been charged with driving offenses 33 hours before the McLaughlin incident. McCann’s attorney, Peter Moses, said he believed McCann’s sentence was fair and balanced. “She’ll be able to get back on her feet and prove to society she can be a productive member,” Moses said. He said he erred on the side of caution from the beginning, instructing McCann not to talk to any of the victim’s family members until the time of sentencing. “I should have never gotten in the car that morning,” McCann said. “I’ll never be free. I’ll be sentenced in my mind forever…” State agriculture chief touts elimination of inheritance tax George Greig pays a visit to area to talk with farmers about their concerns. By BILL O’BOYLE [email protected] SUGARLOAF TWP. – Pennsylvania Agricultural Secretary George Greig touted measures the state has taken to support farming in a meeting Thursday morning with about 50 farmers at Tom’s Kitchen. Greig spoke on two legislative accomplishments in Harrisburg -- the elimination of the inheritance tax for family farms that places a heavy financial burden on surviving farm family members, and the Department of Agriculture’s requirement to acquire, register, license, protect and promote the PA Preferred trademark for use in the sale of agricultural goods produced in the state. “Most farms are passed on generation to generation,” Greig said. “Sometimes, many of the Greig farm’s resources had to be sold to pay the taxes instead of reinvesting in the farm operation. By eliminating that tax, farming becomes more viable and profitable, and it guarantees farming will continue to the next generation.” Tom and Sara Wenner of Drums, third-generation farmers, asked about farmland preservation and for assurances that Gov. Tom Corbett will stand up for farmers and not cut state funding. “We’re glad they stopped the inheritance tax,” Wenner said. “If GET YOUR ROOF BEFORE WINTER RETURNS Lifetime Warranty on Shingles to ensure that our farmers have a bright farming future.” Toohil is running for re-election in November. Her opponent in the 116th Legislative District is Democrat Ransom Young, 57, who owns and operates a fourth-generation family farm in Butler Township. Greig attended the Bloomsburg Fair on Wednesday night as part of his statewide tour to visit with farmers and hear their concerns. “I think most farmers are thankful for what we’ve done to make Pennsylvania more farmer-friendly,” he said. Greig said agriculture generates $5.7 billion in cash receipts and provides an economic impact of $57 billion. Boots Hetherington, special adviser to Corbett, told the group that funding for fairs and 4-H Clubs has gone from $843,000 to $2 million. Greig said overregulation is the biggest hurdle Pennsylvania farmers have to overcome to be successful, and he said he understands the concerns because he is a life-long farmer. Greig operates a 650-acre farm in Crawford County.

By TOM VENESKY [email protected] After months of struggling to find a match for the bone marrow transplant needed to save his life, Chris Kobela turned to the person who brought him into the world. His mother. Kobela, 25, Kingston, began his second battle against acute lymphoblastic leukemia late last year after a blood test revealed the cancer had returned. Chemotherapy treatments took care of the cancer, but now a transplant was needed to replace the bone marrow that Kobela lost in the process. From December 2011 to March of this year, Kobela anxiously awaited a suitable match from the national donor registry, ready to start his recovery. While Kobela Kobela waited each day for the phone to ring, but it never did. It wasn’t until he traveled to Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia to meet with Dr. Neal Flomenberg when Kobela realized a match was closer than he thought. Flomenberg explained the halfmatch transplant -- one in which a patient’s parents are a suitable match, was a viable option. That’s when Kobela’s mother, Geri, stepped up and joined her son’s fight. “When I learned I could serve as the donor, I felt like there was finally something I could do to W-B teen faces felony charges in shooting of half brother By SHEENA DELAZIO [email protected] WILKES-BARRE – A city teen is facing at least two felony charges in Luzerne County Juvenile Court in connection with a Sept. 10 shooting, a county judge said Thursday. Tony Ransome, 14, appeared in Luzerne County Court for a detention hearing before Judge Tina Polachek Gartley, and is facing two felony counts of aggravated assault and two misdemeanor charges of reckless endangerment of another person in the shooting and injuring of 20-year-old Christian Sholly on Hutson Street. Ransome and Sholly are half brothers. Ransome’s attorneys, Cheryl Sobeski Reedy, Demetrius Fannick and Ana Mojtahedi, waived the reading of an affidavit of probable cause outlining the details of the charges. Investigators have also not outlined details surrounding the shooting, but neighbors say they heard yelling coming from the 86 Hutson St. home, including remarks that “it was an accident, it was an accident.” Their mother, Theresa Ran- Ransome some, appeared in court Thursday. Sholly remains in critical condition at Geisinger Wyoming Valley Medical Center in Plains Township. Polachek Gartley said Ransome will continue to stay at a juvenile detention center in Northampton County until a space becomes available at the Kids Peace, a facility in Orefield, Pa. The judge said Ransome will remain in custody until an Oct. 4 adjudication hearing. At an adjudication hearing, a judge will determine if Ransome has committed a delinquent act. Testimony will be heard at the hearing, Polachek Gartley said. A second hearing may be held on the same day or at a different date for a disposition hearing, where a judge will determine placement for a juvenile who has been adjudicated a delinquent. Ransome could face placement in a juvenile detention center until the age of 21. help my son,” Geri Kobela said. “We were relieved.” Geri Kobela, who resides in Allentown, donated the stem cells her son desperately needed -- a process she said was as painless as donating blood, and the transplant was performed on April 19. After a four-week recovery at the hospital and another few weeks of limited activity at home, Kobela is now cancer-free and back to working his full-time job as the season-ticket sales executive for the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins. “I feel like my mom has given me life for a second time,” he said. “I almost feel back to normal and I am lucky to have gotten through it.” But Kobela isn’t finished fighting just because the recovery is over. This time he’ll be doing it to help others. On Saturday, Kobela and a LIGHT THE NIGHT The 2012 Northeast Light the Night Walk will be held on Saturday at Nay Aug Park in Scranton.

The two-mile walk is organized by the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society and is expected to draw 2,000 participants. Kobela is happy to be among them. “I’m really happy to be able to do it, and my co-workers were very willing to help out,” he said, adding his team raised $1,290 in donations in two weeks. Kobela hopes that total will top $1,500. While there is no fundraising minimum to participate in the walk, every walker is encouraged to become a Champion for Cures by raising $100 or more to help fight blood cancer. Funds raised by teams and individual walkers will provide lifesaving blood cancer research, fund support programs for patients and their families and personalized assistance for those fighting the disease. “Light The Night Walk gives hope to patients and their families and lets them know that they are not alone in their battle against cancer,” said Maida R. Milone, executive director of the Eastern Pennsylvania Chapter. “It is a night to pay tribute to lives touched by cancer, honor those we have lost, and celebrate the lives that have been saved.” Controversial MinSec losing 2 contracts Calls rise for the private correctional facility in Hazleton to close. By BILL O’BOYLE [email protected] HAZLETON – The Pennsylvania Department of Corrections confirmed Thursday that it will not renew two contracts at the MinSec private correctional facility in downtown, but a department spokeswoman declined to explain why. “We’re not prepared at this point to comment,” said Sue Bensinger, a DOC spokeswoman. State Rep. Tarah Toohil, RButler Township, said the reasons are obvious why the contracts with MinSec/Hazleton were dropped. “The facts don’t lie,” Toohil said. “Just look at the hundreds of criminal incidents committed by these criminals that have been residing at MinSec.” About one-fourth of the inmates at MinSec Hazleton have been transferred to other correctional facilities, as the company’s contracts with the state Department of Corrections to house drug-and-alcohol and mental-health inmates will not be renewed when they expire Sept. 30. With the transfers, Bensinger said the DOC will have “100-ish” residents at the Hazleton facility. Kate Philips, a spokeswoman for MinSec Cos. in Wallingford, Delaware County, said the DOC has assured MinSec the decision to not renew the contracts “is not a reflection of the quality of care provided.” “We continue to value our strong partnership with PADOC,” Philips said. “We have drug-and-alcohol and community transition residents.” Toohil and Donna Palermo, president of the Greater Hazleton Chamber of Commerce, said they want the downtown facility closed. “We have pleaded with (Gov. Tom Corbett) to close this prison in the middle of our town,” Toohil said. “This is one big step – 110 Lost LOST. Jacket, men’s navy blue blazer.

She said there have been 13 escapes from MinSec so far this year. “I’m sure that had something to do with the DOC’s decision,” she said. “Just a week or two ago, a MinSec client escaped and robbed a bank in Hazleton.” Palermo said not renewing the DOC contracts is a step in the right direction, but the goal is to get the facility closed. “We’ll fill the building with a tenant that’s right for the downtown,” she said.

The memoir will be co-written by the victim’s mother and psychologist and “will share how he survived years of shame and secrecy, harassment and accusation, before reporting Sandusky’s actions to the authorities, and will offer a hopeful and inspiring message for victims of abuse,” Ballantine announced. Victim 1, now 18, will reveal his identity on the day of the book’s release in an interview with ABC’s Chris Cuomo. Financial terms for the book were not disclosed. But Ballantine, an imprint of Random House Inc., plans a donation to a charity for victims of child abuse. Sandusky allegedly fondled Victim 1 and performed oral sex on him multiple times. Victim 1 first alerted authorities in 2008 and helped launch the investigation leading to Sandusky’s conviction in June on 45 counts of child sexual abuse. Prosecutors said some of the assaults took place on the Penn State campus. Sandusky is scheduled to be sentenced next month and is likely to receive a sentence that will keep him in prison for life.

After meeting with Department of Justice officials in 2005 to seek federal help, he realized “we needed a buy-in from the community,” that parents, teachers, school officials and all members of the community would need to be educated on how to recognize gang activity and if their children, students and neighbors might be interacting with gangs. “It takes community after community … all of our leaders, all of our parents and community to work together and recognize that we need to work with law enforcement … and that we do have a role,” Barletta said. Jurack outlined the FBI’s National Gang Strategy, which he likened to the FBI’s successful attack on the Italian mafia. He also described some tactics that have worked well in some communities, such as the use of civil injunctions – court orders banning certain groups from socializing in public in certain areas. Police Chief Frank DeAndrea said reporting suspicious and suspected gang-related activity is of utmost importance, noting the department’s anonymous tip line – 450-2080. Panel members said criminals typically don’t retaliate against witnesses, and DeAndrea noted that witness intimidation is a serious crime. COUNCIL Continued from Page 3A “It needs to be boarded up. It needs to be secured,” he said, adding the city has done a “haphazard job” so far. He suggested the city put a lien on CityVest, the owner of the building, to pay for the costs of boarding it up. The owner has income from a nearby parking lot, he said. CityVest reportedly has no funds and spent nearly $6 million of a county loan on expansion of the property, demolition and removal of hazardous material. County Controller and city property owner Walter Griffith also questioned why taxpayers have to bear the cost of securing the structure and the nearly $5,000 a month fee for concrete barriers put in place around the building to protect people from a possible building collapse. “It seems that CityVest has been given a walk on this whole issue. I think that’s unfair to the people of the county. I think it’s unfair to the people of the city,” he said. THE TIMES LEADER www.timesleader.com FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 2012 PAGE 9A APR M O S.

QUOTE OF THE DAY “If bullying played a part in any of these incidents, it will not be tolerated in our schools.” Michael Garzella The Pittston Area School District superintendent told concerned residents Wednesday night that he takes seriously allegations of bullying, especially in connection with recent teen suicide victims, and noted that criminal charges would be filed if warranted. EDITORIAL BOARD PRASHANT SHITUT President and CEO/Impressions Media MARK E. JONES JOSEPH BUTKIEWICZ Vice President/Executive Editor Editorial Page Editor MALLARD FILLMORE Depression, not other factors, at root of most suicides THE RECENT suicides of four Luzerne County youths in one week, including a 16-year-old from Pittston Area High School, remind us of the most extreme effects of adolescent bullying. Teenagers, usually under the influence of peer pressure, can be heartless in alienating other, less popular individuals and are completely ignorant of the emotional and psychological consequences of their actions. Often, however, the deeper cause of teen suicide is overlooked. Depression – a chronic medical illness that causes a persistent feeling of sadness and hopelessness – is almost always at the root of suicide, especially among adolescents who have yet to develop the coping mechanisms that allow adults to navigate the day-to-day trials of life. Having worked with adolescents for more than 30 years, first as a middle and high school teacher-coach and currently as a community college professor, I am acutely aware that depression and thoughts of suicide do not discriminate among young people. I have seen and counseled students in both public and private educational institutions who have struggled with these feelings. Sadly, some took their own lives. I grieve for those families who’ve lost a son or daughter to suicide and pray for those who are dealing with a teenage child who might be entertaining the thought of taking their own life. MAIL BAG WILLIAM C. KASHATUS Depression can be environmental, genetic, biochemical or some combination of all three factors. Regardless, there often are no warning signs because adolescents are experts at masking their feelings and extremely guarded about their privacy. Environmental factors can originate at home or school. Some teens struggle with the unrealistic expectations or constant demands of parents and turn their anger inward instead of seeking solace from friends, who are most influential at this point in their lives. Others might be bullied at school and refuse to seek help. To do so, in their minds, would worsen the bullying, or confirm feelings of their own inadequacy to handle the matter themselves. In cases of genetic and biochemical depression, the body fails to produce adequate levels of serotonin, the chemical that creates emotional equilibrium. Together with the natural hormonal imbalance of adolescence itself, the combination can be fatal. Under these circumstances, parents and teachers need to look for the symptoms of depression, which include but are not limited to these: a loss of interest in friends and hobbies, excessive sleeping or a lack of sleep, excessive eating or a loss of appetite, “cutting” or self-mutilation, a dramatic • Call Help Line for crisis intervention (if, for instance, you’re having suicidal thoughts) or for referrals to the area’s mental health experts: 1-888-829-1341. • Search online for area therapists by visiting www.therapists.psychologytoday.com. change in dress and/or physical appearance and the inability to see any prospect of a brighter future. Treatment for teen depression is longterm and can take various forms, many of which are covered by health insurance. The initial course is ongoing professional counseling to encourage the teen to communicate his or her feelings and eventually to develop personal insight that will allow the individual to establish coping mechanisms. In more serious cases, a psychiatric evaluation followed by in-patient or out-patient therapies, including medication, is necessary. The danger with medication is that there are some, such as Prozac, Zoloft and Effexor, that have potentially adverse effects in adolescents. Others, including Wellbutrin, have been used with greater success. If you think a teenager is struggling with depression, don’t take any chances – address the situation immediately. It could spell the difference between life and death. William C. Kashatus teaches at Luzerne County Community College. He can be contacted at [email protected] LETTERS FROM READERS Writer believes bullying is pervasive in daily life F COMMENTARY GET HELP FOR DEPRESSION our teenage students committed suicide in one week in our county. I have heard some people say, “Oh, bullying is bs.” And, “They weren’t strong enough to deal with their life and they took the easy way out.” Committing suicide is the easy way out? All I can say is that I am flabbergasted. It takes me back to my time in elementary school when I was bullied and harassed daily. I was told by school administrators to ignore it and it will stop, or that I brought it on myself. And, yes, I tried to commit suicide (have the scars to prove it, too). I am here by the grace of God and grateful that I am still alive to live my life and help others. I am, however, quite troubled by the lack of empathy of some teachers, parents and law enforcement. I don’t understand how a police department can say that bullying had nothing to do with these children’s suicides when people who were a part of their everyday lives are saying SEND US YOUR OPINION Letters to the editor must include the writer’s name, address and daytime phone number for verification.

The problem that I have now is that it’s not only kids and teenagers who do this. I see and deal with plenty of adults who do it as well. Aren’t our children supposed to learn by example? What kind of example are some adults setting when they bully classmates, co-workers, peers, etc.? My question is this: When does it stop? When are people going to stop and ask, what if that were me or my family member? DOONESBURY Lori Prashker-Thomas Wilkes-Barre Schedule sports events to allow for church time W e implore the coaches, officials and others who schedule sports events and practices to be aware that the families involved in these sports programs also are families that might attend church services. When events are scheduled on Sunday morning, the family is forced to make the choice between attending the event or practice session, or attending church. Our congregation feels strongly that these games and practices can be scheduled after noon so that no choice is necessary. The children and families, which also include grandparents, can then attend their worship services and still participate in sporting events on Sunday afternoon. Please take this scheduling suggestion into consideration for those families who would like to participate in both events.

DeLuca said replacement members may opt to make past authority actions valid by ratifying them, but he acknowledged this is uncharted territory. The authority has approved dozens of payments to outside companies for work on floodcontrol projects this year and recently selected the county’s tax claim operator, Northeast Revenue Services, to handle collection of the levee fee, which is in the process of being mailed for 2012. DeLuca said his office is developing a corrective plan. The error would have been “catastrophic” if the authority had floated a bond, he said. “For all the things that went right with this home rule transition from a legal and administrative perspective, this is one that went wrong,” DeLuca said.

AP PHOTO People photograph a driveway in Roseville, Mich., Wednesday. Police plan to take soil samples today after a tipster said it could be the final resting place of missing Teamsters leader Jimmy Hoffa. Driveway latest Hoffa burial site? Investigators checking soil beneath concrete driveway behind home near Detroit. By COREY WILLIAMS Associated Press ROSEVILLE, Mich. — Giants Stadium. A Florida swamp. Underneath a backyard pool in Michigan. There are innumerable theories about where former Teamsters leader Jimmy Hoffa was buried years ago, but his remains have never turned up. The latest tip has taken investigators to a concrete driveway behind a neat brick ranch-style home about four miles north of Detroit, where a man told police he thought he saw Hoffa buried about 35 years ago. Soil samples will be taken today and sent to a forensic anthropologist at Michigan State University to test for human decomposition. Results are not expected before next week. News of the search has brought attention to the mostly working- and middle-class suburb from both the curious and naysayers. Slowly moving vehicles have clogged the residential street as camera-wielding neighbors snapped photos for keepsakes. “I believe it’s him. My sister said it is, and she’s a psychic,” said Mike Smith after ambling up to the home Thursday and SOPER Continued from Page 1A developed a lot of friendships and relationships in this community, and this community has opened its arms to us; so we’re certainly going to miss that, but we won’t be strangers.” Soper and Mohegan Sun forged numerous partnerships with the surrounding community during his tenure. He served as chairman of the United Way’s shying a bit from the yellow police tape stretched across the driveway. Hoffa was last seen July Hoffa 30, 1975, outside a restaurant in Oakland County, more than 30 miles to the west. The mystery behind his disappearance has sparked numerous theories and rumors: that his remains were ground up and tossed into a Florida swamp, entombed beneath Giants Stadium in New Jersey or obliterated in a mob-owned fat-rendering plant. Feisty and iron-willed in contract talks, Hoffa was an acquaintance of mobsters and adversary to federal officials. He spent time in prison for jury tampering. The day he disappeared, Hoffa was supposed to meet with a New Jersey Teamsters boss and a Detroit Mafia captain. He was declared legally dead in 1982. Previous tips led police to excavate soil in 2006 at a horse farm more than 100 miles north of Detroit, rip up floorboards at a Detroit home in 2004, and search beneath a backyard pool north of the city in 2003. After the latest tip, Roseville police contacted the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality, which last week used ground-penetrating radar to deboard and sat on boards or coordinated events with other local charities, including Big Brothers Big Sisters of The Bridge and the Salvation Army. Soper said the charitable involvement of Mohegan Sun will not fade in his absence. “The reality is nothing’s going to change here at Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs,” Soper said. “We’re a community-minded organization. My team here is very community minded. … I feel very comfortable that this property will continue to be integrated in- tect an anomaly, or shift, in the soil. Police Chief James Berlin told The Associated Press Thursday that his office is “not claiming it’s Jimmy Hoffa” beneath the slab, but that they are “investigating a body that may be at the location.” Though others may be skeptical that Hoffa is there, Smith trusts his sister and the reading she gave him Wednesday evening. “She said something is buried,” Smith said. “She didn’t really pin the name Hoffa down, but she had a related word that rhymed with Hoffa, it was Joffa. The hair on the back of my neck stood up. She’s pretty accurate with her readings, and that’s why I came down here.” Roseville was one of several inner-ring communities that grew quickly as unionized auto factory workers left the city in search of nicer homes and bigger yards. “Maybe the most inconspicuous spot might be the place to stash a body or something,” said 52-year-old Andrew Kacir, who lives across from the taped off driveway. Cindi Frank, 57, walked over from her home a block away to snap photos of the driveway. The daughter of a unionized driver and salesman for a Detroit bakery, Frank remembers conversations about Hoffa while he was alive and rumors about his fate. “It was a family thing.

There he will take the helm of a casino that has seen declining revenues as revenues at Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs have risen. According to The Day newspaper of New London, Conn., the Connecticut Mohegan Sun will lay off more than 300 employees by the end of October – the casino’s second mass layoff since 2010. Mitchell Etess, CEO of the Mohegan Tribal Gaming Authority, Newman declined to discuss Pizano’s reasons, but several employees close to Pizano said he has been coping with a health issue. “Iwasalittlesurprised.We’regoing to miss Tom and wish the best for him,” Newman said. Newman said he and Pizano were busy earlier in the week developing a plan to better allocate existing staff in the election office to handle the typical presidential election onslaught of absentee ballotrequestsandregistrationforms. Newman and other county officials said they’re confident a plan will be implemented to ensure the Nov. 6 election will be properly conducted. “I do not have any concerns the election will be problematic,” Newman said. County Manager Robert Lawton said the administration will discussoptionsincomingdaysand brief the election board and county council. HOGGARTH “Any necessary resources or personnel will be provided to make sure the election is handled in a proper and professional manner,” said council Chairman Tim McGinley. Pizano, 60, has worn several hats in his county government career. He worked 12 years as county election director until resigning in 1993 to work in the family’s greenhouse and farm in Exeter. He holds a degree in agriculture from West Virginia University. Pizano became county controller in 1998 and served as a Democratic majority county commissioner from 2000 to 2003. He returned to the county at the end of 2005, when then-clerk of courts Bob Reilly appointed him deputy of the office, which oversees criminal court records. Prothonotary Deputy Art Bobbouine was recently assigned to oversee day-to-day operations in Reilly’s office to reduce criminal court record processing backlogs and advance the home rule merger of the civil and criminal record offices. “I appreciate the confidence manager Lawton has shown in me, and I look forward to implementing the structure of the judicial services and records division under the home rule charter,” she said. Hoggarth receives $41,200. Her salary will remain the same for now, though a pay increase may be discussed as part of a permanent appointment. Lawton gathered managers of the offices under her division Thursday afternoon to inform them of the appointment. “I look forward to working with Joan because of her professionalism and progressiveness,” said county Interim Sheriff John Robshaw. Interim Register of Wills Dorothy Stankovic said Hoggarth is a “hard worker.” Art Bobbouine, who is overseeing the civil and criminal records offices, said Hoggarth will help unify the group’s mission. “We’re all working together to accomplish common goals,” he said. and casino executives attributed the layoffs to declining revenues from weak economic recovery and increased competition in the northeast casino market, according to The Day’s report. The Mohegan Tribal Gaming Authority said in its latest financial report, for the three months ending June 30, that income from operations at the Connecticut casino fell 20 percent from 2011, while it rose 40 percent at Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs. Gaming revenues grew 3.2 percent at the Plains Township casi- no, but fell 9.2 percent in Connecticut. The Connecticut flagship is also much larger by every measure than Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs. It has nearly 6,000 slot machines compared to 2,300, and 300 table games versus 66 at the local casino. The Connecticut casino reported $1.1 billion in net revenue for the last fiscal year, while the Plains Township complex that includes a harness racing track had revenues of just over $300 million.

By JOHN ERZAR [email protected] Meyers’ goal on Saturday afternoon is simple. Throw more dirt into an already muddiedpoolofDistrict2Class2Aplayoff contenders. It won’t be an easy task as the Mohawks (2-2) head to Lake-Lehman (3-1) for a Wyoming Valley Conference Division 2A-A game. Kickoff is at a unique time – 4 p.m. – because of Lehman’s homecoming festivities. Lehmancurrentlyleadstheraceforfour playoff spots with 350 state points. Behind the Black Knights are a pack of seven 2-2 teams, with Carbondale (240) leading thatgroupandMidValley(180)attheend. “At first, we looked like a team that would try to get the fourth seed,” Lehman coach Jerry Gilsky said. “But right now, GOLF wow that win (over Wyoming Area) gave us a lot of points because you know Wyoming Area is going to win games.” Meyers resides just south of the middle with 200 state points. But a victory Saturday would be worth 130 more. And with a few of the 2-2 bunch favored to win, the Mohawks need to bring Lehman back to the pack, as well as keep pace with the others. “It’s at Lehman and it’s their homecoming,” Meyers coach Corry Hanson said. “Coach (Jerry) Gilsky will have those boys ready to play. They’re on a winning streak, but we’re excited and looking forward to it.” Hanson answered his major concern with Lehman in two words. “Dustin Jones,” the second-year coach said. Jones and his Meyers backfield counterpart, Parrish Bennett, are two of the WVC’s top backs. They are a contrast in styles as well – a bulldozer versus a sports Right on course NFL Officials cheered in return Ravens top Browns, but big story is return of the league’s regular referees. Eight European Ryder Cup players are on PGA Tour have residences in Florida. By JOSEPH WHITE AP Sports Writer By DOUG FERGUSON AP Golf Writer MEDINAH, Ill. — The question used to come up every other year when the Americans began looking ahead to the Ryder Cup. “Who’s their Peter Baker?” Europe always had at least one player the Americans didn’t know anything about until losing to him. Baker played in onTV ly one Ryder Coverage Cup, going 3-1 in 1993 8 a.m. today ESPN and winning a singles match against Corey Pavin, one of the toughest guys to beat in match play. Those days are gone. As golf has expanded its borders, the Ryder Cup no longer has any mystery guests. Eight of the Europeans have joint membership on the PGA Tour, and all eight have homes in Florida. Luke Donald of England, who has the best winning percentage of anyone at Medinah, lives about 45 minutes away on the north side of Chicago. The only Ryder Cup rookie for Europe is Nicolas Colsaerts, the big hitter from Belgium. With the majors and World Golf Championships, he already has played eight times in America this year, and has been invited to play in a PGA Tour event in two weeks in California. There are no surprises in this Ryder Cup, only stars. “Both teams are pretty much even and it’s going to be a close match,” European captain Jose Maria Olazabal said. “I don’t see any favorites.” When the matches get under way Friday at Medinah, they will feature the two strongest teams in the 85-year history of the Ryder Cup. The entire 12-man team for the United States was part of the 30-man field at the Tour Championship last week in Atlanta, joined by five of the seven Europeans who were eligible. For the first time, the 24 players from both sides are among the top 35 in the world ranking. Europe has four major champions and four players who have been No. 1 in the world.

Yes, the real RAVENS refs are back. Official harmony is restored to the NFL. BROWNS Steratore and his seven-man crew donned their familiar stripes for the first game of Week 4 after three weeks of replacement officials created moments of chaos throughout the league. The officials ran a mostly smooth and efficient game through three quarters Thursday night, with no headline-making calls as the Ravens defeated the Browns, 23-16. Joe Flacco went 28 for 46 for 356 yards, threw one touchdown and ran for another. Cary Williams returned an interception 63 yards for a score near the end of the third quarter to give the Ravens (3-1) a 13-point lead.

Coughlin, Redeemer shoot to WVC titles By PAUL SOKOLOSKI [email protected] EXETER – Mike Post just missed making the cut for the District 2 championships this season and Mariano Medico watched last year’s District 2 title barely elude his grasp. But that’s all individual anguish. When it came time for team play, those two individuals more than made up for past personal frustration this time around. Coughlin’s Post put up a 76 in the Class 3A title match and Holy Redeemer’s Medico was marvelous again with a tournament-low 72 in Class 2A, as both led their teams to Wyoming Valley Conference championships Thursday at Fox Hill Country Club. “It means a lot,” Post said. “During (individual) Pre-Districts, I shot an 83 and missed districts by a stroke. It means the world to take this as a team.” His consistent day helped Coughlin finish with a 318, easily besting Wyoming Valley West (329) and Pittston Area (334). Then unbeaten Holy Redeemer had little trouble fending off Hanover Area 306-376 in the 2A field. Both Coughlin and Redeemer will advance to the District 2 team tournament to be held next Friday at Paupack Hills Country Club in Greentown. Post was on the verge of taking his individual game back to the District 2 individual tourney, but he was kept out by missing a short putt in a playoff round. “It stunk,” Post said. “I made them (districts) the past two years. I went out the last two days and practiced.” It worked as he plastered an eagle in the No. 6 hole and birdied No. 12 to finish with the lowest score in 3A – two strokes better than teammate See GOLF, Page 2B See NFL, Page 6B P E N N S TAT E Nittany Lions may move quickly on offense to extinguish Illini By DEREK LEVARSE [email protected] UP NEXT gone worse while being steamrolled by Arizona State and Louisiana Tech.

Today they did.” Medico knows the pain of losing out in a playoff. He was edged out of a tournament in the past after going extra rounds with since-graduated Brandon Matthews. But Matthews is gone – on to Temple – and Medico’s still going strong. Redeemer’s No. 1 player captured his second Pre-District individual title earlier in the week, then made four birdies to finish with a 72 and riddle the 2A team championship field. His closest competitor was teammate Matt Slavoski, who finished with 75. “To come out and play well, it was very exciting,” Medico said. Then again, seeing strong play isn’t surprising to an undefeated Royals team that includes Medico, Chase Makowski (76), Slavoski and Ryan Crossin (83). “I kind of expect guys to play pretty well up here,” Redeemer coach Art Brunn Jr. said.

It’s always a nice honor to represent your conference against the Lackawanna League. That’s our focus now, getting ready for next week.” It seems Coughlin got its focus back just in time. After starting the season 4-0, the Crusaders slumped to the point where they needed a victory over Tunkhannock in the regular-season finale just to make the WVC team championship round. Now, Coughlin may be one of the most dangerous teams around. “We’re starting to get it back,” Post said. “We really wanted to win (Thursday).” “Now everybody’s starting to play a little bit better,” Galli said. “We’re not just relying on a couple of guys. Everybody’s doing their part.

The loss eliminated the Phillies from the Wild Card race. Bryce Harper also connected for the Nationals, who reduced their magic number to three. They have a four-game lead over Atlanta with six to play. Gonzalez (21-8) settled down after a shaky start and lasted six innings, allowing three runs and six hits. He’s the first NL lefty to win more than 20 games since Dontrelle Willis won 22 for the Florida Marlins in 2005. Gonzalez and Mets knuckleballer R.A. Dickey (20-6) are considered the leading candidates for the NL Cy Young Award. Mets 6, Pirates 5 NEW YORK — R.A. Dickey became the first knuckleballer to win 20 games in more than three decades, tying his careerhigh with 13 strikeouts and leading the New York Mets over Pittsburgh Pirates behind David Wright’s tiebreaking, three-run homer in the fifth inning. A 37-year-old knuckleballer who had never won more than 11 games in any previous season, Dickey (20-6) overcame an outstanding, climbing catch by Travis Snider more than 2 feet above the right-field wall that robbed Mike Baxter of a home run. Dickey allowed three runs in 7 2-3 innings. He leads the NL with 222 strikeouts. Reds 2, Brewers 1 CINCINNATI — Slumping Todd Frazier tied the game with a two-out homer in the ninth inning, and Dioner Navarro followed with an RBI triple that sent the Cincinnati Reds to a victory and dealt a major setback to the Milwaukee Brewers’ playoff chances. The Brewers slipped four games behind idle St. Louis for the final NL wild card with six games left. AP PHOTO New York Mets starting pitcher R.A. Dickey celebrates his 20th victory against the Pittsburgh Pirates at Citi Field in New York Thursday. It was the first time in 22 years the Mets have had a 20-game winner. Rockies 7, Cubs 5 DENVER — Jordan Pacheco and DJ LeMahieu each homered, leading the Colorado Rockies to a win over the Chicago Cubs for a three-game series sweep. Pacheco, Wilin Rosario and Chris Nelson had two hits apiece for the Rockies, who had 12 hits in their final home game of 2012. Giants 7, Diamondbacks 3 SAN FRANCISCO — Midseason acquisitions Hunter Pence and Marco Scutaro each hit two-run homers in the second inning to back Barry Zito, and the NL West champion San Francisco Giants beat Arizona in their regular-season home finale. Braves 6, Marlins 2 ATLANTA — Tommy Hanson earned his first win since July, and the Atlanta Braves scored two runs on Miami left fielder Bryan Petersen’s error during a victory over the Marlins. Miami led 2-0 before the Braves scored four runs in the fourth inning. Dan Uggla and Andrelton Simmons had runscoring doubles before Jacob Turner (1-4) walked Jose Constanza to load the bases. Petersen dropped Martin Prado’s sinking liner, allowing David Ross and Simmons to score. AMERICAN LEAGUE ROUNDUP Yanks blanked by Jays, lead down to one game The Associated Press TORONTO — Brandon Morrow and two relievers combined on a five-hitter, pitching the Toronto Blue Jays to a 6-0 victory over New York on Thursday night that trimmed the Yankees’ tight lead in the AL East. Edwin Encarnacion had three hits and three RBIs for Toronto. Brett Lawrie hit a two-run homer and J.P. Arencibia added a solo shot as the Blue Jays handed an assist to idle Baltimore, shaving New York’s division lead over the Orioles to one game. New York lost for the third time in five games and wasted a chance to go two up with six to play. Making his third start since missing 14 games with a sore right shoulder, Yankees righthander Ivan Nova (12-8) allowed four runs and six hits in 4 2-3 innings. He walked two and struck out four. Mariners 9, Angels 4 ANAHEIM, Calif. — John Jaso hit a two-run homer and an RBI double for Seattle, and the Los Angeles Angels wasted a golden chance to get within one game of an AL wild-card spot with a loss to the Mariners. Rays 3, White Sox 2 CHICAGO — Evan Longoria hit a tiebreaking homer in the ninth inning and the surging Tampa Bay Rays won their eighth straight game, handing the White Sox a loss that hurts Chicago’s playoff hopes. The Rays remained two games back in the race for the second AL wild card, while the White Sox fell two games behind Detroit in the AL Central after their eighth loss in nine games. Tampa Bay and Chicago have six games to go, including three more against each other. Detroit beat Kansas City 5-4 earlier Thursday. Rangers 9, Athletics 7 ARLINGTON, Texas — Ian Kinsler got Texas started with a leadoff homer, Matt Harrison earned his 18th victory and the AL West-leading Rangers held on to win for a four-game split with the chasing Oakland Athletics. Tigers 5, Royals 4 DETROIT — Doug Fister set an AL record by striking out nine straight batters and the Detroit Tigers kept their lead in the Central, beating the Kansas City Royals on Alex Avila’s grounder in the ninth inning. The Tigers began the day with a one-game edge over the Chicago White Sox, who later hosted Tampa Bay.

Dodgers at San Diego, (n) WCGB — — 2 2 WCGB — — 31⁄2 4 T H I S D A T E I N B A S E B A L L Sept. 28 1919 — In the shortest nine-inning game in major league history, 51 minutes, the New York Giants beat the Philadelphia Phillies 6-1. 1920 — A grand jury indicted eight members of the Chicago White Sox on charges of fixing the 1919 World Series in the “Black Sox Scandal.” 1938 — Gabby Hartnett hit his famous “Homer in the Gloamin’” in the ninth inning against Mace Brown to give the Chicago Cubs a 6-5 victory, their ninth straight, at Wrigley Field. It was a key triumph en route to the Cubs’ NL pennant. 1941 — Ted Williams went 6-for-8 in a doubleheader against the Philadelphia A’s to finish the season with a .406 average. No player has batted .400 since. 1951 — Allie Reynolds pitched his second no-hitter of the season as the New York Yankees defeated the Boston Red Sox, 8-0, in the opener of a doubleheader. The Yankees clinched the AL pennant with an 11-3 victory in the nightcap. 1974 — Nolan Ryan pitched his third of seven career no-hitters, striking out 15 batters and beating the Minnesota Twins, 4-0, at Anaheim Stadium. 1975 — Vida Blue, Glenn Abbott, Paul Lindblad and Rollie Fingers of the Oakland A’s combined to no-hit the California Angels, 5-0, on the final day of the season. 1995 — Greg Harris of the Montreal Expos became the first pitcher in major league history to pitch with both hands. Harris faced four batters, two from his usual right side and two from the left, in the ninth inning of a 9-7 loss to Cincinnati. 1997 — San Diego’s Tony Gwynn tied Honus Wagner’s record by winning his eighth NL batting title. Gwynn finished at .372, becoming the first player to win four consecutive NL batting titles since Rogers Hornsby won six straight from 1920-25. OFFENSE Continued from Page 1B on quick passes to neutralize blitzes. While most of Illinois’ top talent is on defense, new coordinator Tim Banks has struggled to adapt against the spread, a fact not lost on Penn State coach Bill O’Brien. “All of us as coaches, we all tend to have some copycat in us,” O’Brien said. “That’s from studying film and things. So we try to do things that other teams have had success with.” One way or another, the Nittany Lions will look to keep the Illinois defense frustrated. After a particularly humbling 52-24 loss to the Bulldogs at home last week, some Illini players openly questioned their coaching staff. “Last year, we blitzed a lot more with our linebackers,” Akeem Spence, an imposing nose tackle and future NFLer, told The News-Gazette in Champaign. “And this year, you know, they’re sitting back, and they’ve got to read. We were able to bring pressure from just about anywhere, from the corners. ... We just brought it from a lot of different angles. That’s what we were used to.” Injuries to top safeties Supo Sanni and Steve Hull have contributed to the Illini’s more conservative approach on defense. Both, however, are expected to play Saturday, which could allow Illinois to take more risks defensively. The question that remains is whether Penn State will be able to exploit these same issues. Though the Lions’ offense has shifted in favor of the pass under O’Brien, the team does not run a dedicated spread. But O’Brien refers to his scheme as a “gameplan offense,” one that can transform from week-to-week to best attack the opponent. On Saturday, that could mean more time spent in the nohuddle. “We’ll have a no-huddle gameplan going into every game,” O’Brien said. “And the flow of the game basically determines how much you’re going to use no-huddle. When you play a team that pressures quite a bit, no-huddle becomes more involved in your gameplan. “Our players are doing a really (good job with it). It’s really pretty neat to see.” Helping out the Lions will be the likely returns of key starters like tailback Bill Belton and left tackle Donovan Smith. Both were back to full practice this week and are expected to play against Illinois. Exactly how much they play, however, is unknown. Smith would help shore up the Lions’ pass protection, particularly if the plan is to drop back and throw much of the time. Belton, who suffered a nagging ankle injury back in the opener, brings versatility as a receiver out of the backfield and a useful checkdown target for quarterback Matt McGloin. “He’s back to his old self,” McGloin said. “He looks really smooth with his cuts and he’s running well in practice. He hasn’t lost a step … and the offense will be better because he’s back.” Jones set to transfer Departed quarterback Paul Jones will remain enrolled at Penn State for the rest of the semester before looking to transfer for the spring, according to O’Brien. “It was a tough decision for Paul and for us,” O’Brien said Thursday on his weekly radio show. “Paul felt at the end of the day that he wanted a fresh start. … I wish Paul the best. I have a lot of great feelings for Paul. He’s a great kid. “His dream is to be a starting quarterback somewhere.

Scouting Berwick: The Dawgs’ 11-game winning streak didn’t just end against Valley West, it was demolished. They were dominated in every aspect of the game. The 33-15 final wasn’t as close as it looked. C.J. Curry had three terrific games to start the season, but was harassed all night and finished 1-of-12 for 8 yards. RB Matt Cashman has his excellent start come to a halt as well. The defense 352 rushing yards, more than its first three games combined. Scouting Selinsgrove: Two years removed from the Class 3A state title, the Seals slipped to 1-9 in 2011. Part of the reason was turmoil as eight players were dismissed from the team after the first game. The Seals, though, have turned things around. They have two shutouts, but have been winning close games. They needed a 2-yard TD run by QB Tyler Krebs with14 seconds left to defeat Shamokin 20-13 last week and have won three games by a combined 12 points. What To Expect: Berwick isn’t as bad as it showed last week. Selinsgrove might not be as good as its record indicates. Looks like a toss-up. -- John Erzar Hanover Area (0-4) at Northwest (2-2) 7 p.m. today # *4 8 < #4 / 4 8 < 04 #4 4 < /6 0 <+ 1 / 5 -5 2=?== = )4 + 44 ) +4 0 ) (? # (? 8 ! (? !

Scouting Crestwood: The Comets defeated Wallenpaupack 33-6 last Friday. The victory might have been a watershed game because a lot of players got their hands on the ball, just like last year’s team that was loaded with seniors. QB Jay Popson had his best game, throwing for 121 yards and three TDs. Four guys ran for 55 yards or more, including WR Kota Kishel who also hauled in 91 yards of passes. The defense was stingy for a second week. Scouting Tunkhannock: The Tigers were shut out for the second time this season in a 47-0 loss to Pittston Area. To put that in perspective, there was a 20-game gap between their two previous shutouts. The offense mustered a season-low 125 yards and turned over the ball twice. After solid games vs. Montrose, runners Josh Robinson and Ryan Cwynski led the ground game with 32 yards each vs. Pittston Area. The passing game hasn’t added much to balance a run-heavy attack. What To Expect: Crestwood might … just might … be turning the corner and overcoming its inexperience. That should be enough to win comfortably. -- John Erzar Hazleton Area (1-3) at Pittston Area (1-3) 7 p.m. today Dallas (1-3) at Williamsport (0-4) 7 p.m. today The Coaches: Dallas’ Bob Zaruta (1-3, 1st year); Williamsport’s Kevin Choate (0-4, 1st year) Last Meeting: Dallas 41-6 in 2011 All-Time Series: Dallas leads 3-1 Quick Fact: Dallas has scored 114 points in winning the last three meetings. Scouting Dallas: The Mountaineers finally broke into the win column last Saturday with a 17-7 victory over Coughlin. The offensive line played much better than previous games against a pretty darn good defensive front. WR Jason Simonovich led the way with four catches for 105 yards and a TD. The defense caused some chaos with five turnovers, including a pick-6 by Ryan Kozloski. The unit has seven turnovers in the last two games after having none in the first two. Moreover, it didn’t allow many big plays. Scouting Williamsport: Williamsport lost last Friday 48-12 to Hazleton Area, a team that managed just 12 points in its first three games. Special teams allowed two kicks returned for touchdowns. RB Devin Miller had another big game, and Dale Berkheimer stepped in at quarterback and threw for 175 yards. The Millionaires had just 116 through the air in their first three games. WR Sadiq Burkholder, a big-play guy, finally got into the mix a little bit. What To Expect: Dallas’ next three opponents are a combined 2-10, so it could get itself back into the postseason picture. But the Mountaineers need to take care of Williamsport first. -- John Erzar Wyoming Area (2-2) at Nanticoke (2-2) 7 p.m. today The Coaches: Hanover Area’s Ron Hummer (34-37, 7th year); Northwest’s Carl Majer (31-18, The Coaches: Hazleton Area’s Jim Drumheller (5-9, 2nd year); Pittston Area’s Mike Barrett The Coaches: Wyoming Area’s Randy Spencer (23-24, 5th year); Nanticoke’s Ron Bruza Last Meeting: Northwest 42-28 in 2011 All-Time Series: Hanover Area leads 4-1 Quick Fact: The first game between the two teams came in 1915. Scouting Hanover Area: The Hawkeyes played keep-away last Friday vs. Wyoming Last Meeting: Hazleton Area 27-13 in 2011 All-Time Series: Hazleton Area leads 16-13 Quick Fact: Pittston Area has lost the last nine meetings, including three by shutout. Scouting Hazleton Area: After scoring 12 points and being shut out twice in their Last Meeting: Wyoming Area 48-6 in 2011 All-Time Series: Wyoming Area leads 31-6-1 Quick Fact: Wyoming Area has won the past 13 meetings, scoring at least 35 points in the 5th year) (4-10, 2nd year) (9-14, 3rd year) last eight games. Scouting Wyoming Area: It could be a record-setting night as QB/RB Nick O’Brien is Area. It worked for a quarter before big plays in the second quarter led to a 43-8 loss. Special teams gave up yet another return touchdown. Hanover Area is a very young team and it has shown in uneven play thus far. RB Brian Belcher had a great game against Lakeland, but was then shut down last Friday. FB Dillon Ropietski had his best game, running for 84 yards, but wasn’t a big part of the run offense the first three weeks. Scouting Northwest: The Rangers were routed 35-7 by GAR last Friday. RB Tony Politz had his streak of four consecutive 100-yard regular-season games stopped. He finished with 97, with 39 coming after the mercy rule started late in the third quarter. As a whole, the offense backslid from its three previous games. The defense did as well, allowing a season-high 366 yards. Both units need to improve immediately if the Rangers are going to make a run at the D2-A playoffs. What To Expect: Hanover Area is making slow but steady progress, although the record might not indicate that. It could be enough for the Hawkeyes topmost a win. -- John Erzar first three games, the Cougars defeated Williamsport 48-25 last Friday. The 48 points were the most they scored since trouncing Pittston Area 56-0 in 2007, a span of 52 games. Special teams helped out as Devion Barlow and Zach Kehler returned kicks for touchdowns. Zach Zukoski (98 yards) and Jeff Fendrick (97) put some life into a listless running game. The pass defense, though, was shaky for a third time this season. Scouting Pittston Area: After a heartbreaking loss to Crestwood, the Patriots took out their frustrations on Tunkhannock. The result – a 47-0 victory – was their first shutout since defeating Tunkhannock 13-0 to start the 2009 season. QB James Emmett had his best game, throwing three TDs. WR Jordan Houseman returned to the field and had two catches for 122 yards and a score. The backfield averaged 11.4 yards per carry. What To Expect: Both teams received a much-needed boost last week. Which team carries that momentum through is anybody’s guess. Looks like a toss-up. -- John Erzar closing in on becoming the school’s all-time leading rusher. He pulled much closer with a 193-yard, four-TD performance in a 43-8 victory over Hanover Area last week, but still needs 251 more. Cody Schmitz also returned his second punt for a touchdown last Friday. The defense continued its strong play, surrendering just 182 yards per game and 3.3 per rush. Scouting Nanticoke: Nanticoke lost 45-16 to Meyers last Saturday, but the game was close until late in the first half. Nanticoke concentrated on stopping Meyers’ running game and did. The passing game, though, bit the Trojans for several big plays. RB Pat Hempel ran hard and his 117 yards led a season-best 220 by the team. The Trojans ran 64 plays to Meyers’ 39, but mistakes and a couple turnovers hurt throughout. What To Expect: Nanticoke to go all out to stop O’Brien and make others make plays. The Warriors have the guys if the Trojans slow down O’Brien’s big-play ability. -- John Erzar Wyoming Valley West (2-2) at Coughlin (3-1) 7 p.m. today Meyers (2-2) at Lake-Lehman (3-1) 4 p.m. Saturday GAR (2-2) at Holy Redeemer (1-3) 7 p.m. Saturday The Coaches: Valley West’s Pat Keating (24-13, 4th year); Coughlin’s Ciro Cinti (37-33, 7th year) Last Meeting: Valley West 33-19 in 2011 All-Time Series: Valley West leads 27-17-3 Quick Fact: Valley West has won seven of the last eight meetings. Scouting Valley West: Valley West bounced back from consecutive losses to defeat Berwick 33-15. The 18-point margin wasn’t indicative of how badly the Spartans trampled the Dawgs. RB Derrick Simms rushed for 248 yards behind outstanding blocks, especially from WRs Lucky Williams and Josh Ortiz at times. The passing game was off, but not needed. It should be better tonight. The defense smothered Berwick, holding the Dawgs to 62 yards and no offensive touchdowns. Scouting Coughlin: The Crusaders lost for the first time, 17-7 to Dallas. RB Zac Evans went over 100 yards again, but they were very tough yards. Four interceptions, one of which was returned for a touchdown, and a fumble stymied any continuity. The defense was solid against the run, surrendering just 101 yards. But the group was challenged for the first time by a good passing attack and was exploited at times. What To Expect: This is a trap game of sorts for Valley West, which is coming off a huge rivalry win. Coughlin, though, probably won’t be able to spring the trap. -- John Erzar PACK Continued from Page 1B car. At 235-240 pounds, Jones is a basher who more often than not takes a straight line between two points. He is fourth in the division in rushing with 453 yards, averages 4.4 per carry and his six rushing TDs are tie with three others for second in the conference. Bennett is a 5-foot-8, 160-pound slashing speedster who led the entire WVC in rushing last season with 1,715 yards while at Hanover Area. He is off the pace this year with 468 yards, but Nanticoke made a concerted effort to stop him last week. He finished with 40 yards on 12 carries – both season lows – in the 45-16 victory. While Jones and Bennett are difference makers, the biggest difference in both teams’ recent success has been the quarterback position. Meyers’ senior Teaguen Labatch enters Saturday’s contest off a career game where he threw for 281 yards and four touchdowns. HissevenTDpasseshavehimtied with Berwick’s C.J. Curry for the conference lead. His 611 yards are the fourth most. “Hereallycommittedhimselfin the offseason,” Hanson said. “He was in the weight room every day The Coaches: Meyers’ Corry Hanson (5-9, 2nd year); Lehman’s Jerry Gilsky (15-10, 3rd year) Last Meeting: Lehman 42-14 in 2011 All-Time Series: Meyers leads 28-15 Quick Fact: Lehman has won the last two meetings. Scouting Meyers: The Mohawks showed in their 45-16 win vs. Nanticoke that they are more diversified on offense than given credit for. RB Parrish Bennett was bottled up, finishing with 40 yards on 12 carries. So Meyers went to the air and QB Teaguen Labatch and WR Matt DeMarco had career games in hooking up for three long TDs. The defense had its best game, but was on the field quite a bit more than expected. Scouting Lehman: The Black Knights made quick work of Holy Redeemer 42-12 for their third consecutive victory. The running game was strong, but the big news was the passing offense. QB Bill Hillman threw for 160 yards and three touchdowns. He has bounced back strongly after a rough opener vs. Old Forge. The defense surrendered 214 yards through the air against pass-happy Redeemer. However, it was a good chance to work out the kinks with what Meyers did last Saturday. What To Expect: It’s a pretty even matchup overall. It could come down to the brute running style of Lehman’s Dustin Jones vs. the speed and slash of Bennett. -- John Erzar getting stronger. He went to camps all over the state and out of state. He just really committed to his senior year to be a better quarterback.” Meanwhile, Lehman signalcaller Bill Hillman has rebounded from a poor debut as the starter in a 50-14 season-opening loss to Old Forge.Sincethen,heis13-of-25for 293 yards with four touchdowns and no interceptions. Hillman has plenty of pass catchers available. But guys like Tom Donovan, Josh Sayre and John Van Scoy will also run the ball at times. The trio averages about the same number of carries per game as Jones. A big factor for Lehman has been turnovers. The Black Knights have one after committingfouragainstOldForge,ateam Meyers lost to 42-7. “YoulookattheOldForgegame and it’s 10-7 at the half,” Gilsky said. “Old Forge is a very good team, but when you have turnovers like we had in the second half to start out, that kind of took the wind out of our sails.” Meyers’ other main threat is receiver Matt DeMarco, who leads the WVC with six touchdown catches among his 16 receptions. His 28.3 yards-per-catch average leads all receivers with at least 10 grabs. He is coming off his best game of his career with 210 reception yards and three TDs. The Coaches: GAR’s Paul Wiedlich Jr. (24-6, 3rd year); Redeemer’s Pat Reece (1-3, 1st year) Last Meeting: GAR 68-26 in 2011 All-Time Series: GAR leads 5-0 Quick Fact: GAR set a school record for points in last year’s game. Scouting GAR: The Grenadiers got their offense in gear in a 35-7 victory over Northwest. QB Corey Moore threw for 201 yards and two scores. A trio of back ran well. Lucas Benton was among them, but the big thing was he caught five passes for 81 yards and two TDs. He is their best weapon. The defense shut down one of the WVC’s best runners, Northwest’s Tony Politz. The young secondary, though, hasn’t been tested yet this season. That will certainly change tonight. Scouting Redeemer: The Royals lost by another big margin, 42-12 to Lake-Lehman last Saturday. The running game that showed signs of improving was held to minus-23 yards on 19 rushes. A bright spot was the passing game. QB Jimmy Strickland threw for 214 yards and two touchdowns. WR Eric Kerr caught seven passes and leads the WVC with 30 receptions. The downer was those TD passes came in the fourth quarter with the outcome already decided. What To Expect: GAR is starting to put it all together and won’t give Redeemer much of a chance to take it apart. -- John Erzar B R O A D C A S T S C H E D U L E FRIDAY ON THE INTERNET 7 p.m. www.northeastpafootball.com – Wyoming Area at Nanticoke 7 p.m. www.northeastpafootball.com – Crestwood at Tunkhannock 7 p.m. www.WVWSpartanFootball.com – Wyoming Valley West at Coughlin 7 p.m. www.ofbluedevils.com – Old Forge at Riverside 7 p.m. www.wrak.com – Dallas at Williamsport ON THE RADIO 7 p.m. FOX Sports THE GAME (1340, 1400 AM) – Old Forge at Riverside 7 p.m. ESPN Radio (630, 1240 AM; 96.1, 101 FM) – Old Forge at Riverside 7 p.m. WILK (910, 980, 1300 AM; 103.1 FM) – Hazleton Area at Pittston Area 7 p.m. WHLM (103.5 FM) – Berwick at Selinsgrove ON TELEVISION 7 p.m. Comcast Channel 21 – Delaware Valley at West Scranton 7 p.m. WQMY – Scranton at Valley View 7 p.m. WNEP2 – Old Forge at Riverside 7 p.m. Service Electric Cable – Wyoming Valley West at Coughlin SATURDAY ON THE RADIO 1:30 p.m. FOX Sports THE GAME (1340, 1400 AM) – North Pocono at Scranton Prep ON TELEVISION 7 p.m. Service Electric Cable – GAR at Holy Redeemer 9 p.m. PCN – St. Edward’s (Ohio) at Erie McDowell (taped Friday) PAGE 6B ➛ FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 2012 S P O R T S THE TIMES LEADER www.timesleader.com HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS SOCCER COLLEGE FOOTBALL Hazleton Area edges Wyoming Seminary Dangerous ground attack powers Lyco The Times Leader staff HAZLETON – Alyssa Sitch scored twice and Josie Zapotosky passed out two assists in Hazleton Area’s 3-2 win over Wyoming Seminary in Wyoming Valley Conference girls soccer Thursday.

The kept the Browns (0-4) the only winless team in the AFC. Unlike the controversial ending of the Green Bay-Seattle game on Monday night, which heightened negotiations to get the regular refs back, this game ended without an argument. “You know we always pride ourselves in being a face without a name,” Steratore, a 10-year league veteran, told The Associated Press about an hour before kickoff. “This will be a little different, but I don’t expect it to last too long. And that’s the goal — is that we can let them get through Wyoming Area 2, MMI 1 HIGH SCHOOL ROUNDUP The Times Leader staff NFL that portion of this. It’s happy to be back, it’s happy to be appreciated. But then as soon as the game starts, it’s happy to disappear again and let the entertainers entertain.” Everyone on all sides was happy to see the familiar faces they usually love to boo, and the welcome-back love began early. About an hour before kickoff, the officials walked on the field and heard cheers from the early arrivals. A few minutes later, Steratore was shaking hands with Browns coach Pat Shurmur near midfield and getting a hug from Ravens face-of-the-franchise Ray Lewis at the 30-yard line. Later, when the crew returned, they walked on the field they received a standing ovation and doffed their caps to the crowd. One fan held up a sign that read: “Finally! We get to yell at real refs!

LOCAL COLLEGE ROUNDUP Monaghan scores twice in King’s win The Times Leader staff ALLENTOWN – Alyssa Monaghan scored twice and added an assist to lead the King’s field hockey team to a 6-0 victory over host Cedar Crest on Thursday. Jackie Sikora opened the scoring for the Monarchs 6:44 into the game with an unassisted tally. The score became 2-0 at 25:24 when Kim Howanitz added an unassisted goal of her own. MEN’S SOCCER Wilkes 2, Penn College 0 Eddie Metzger and Michael Turner each found the back of the goal in a win for Wilkes at home. WOMEN’S TENNIS Misericordia 9, Keystone 0 Michelle Cameron and Breanne Phillips won at first and second singles, respectively, before teaming up for a win at first doubles as Misericordia won its fourth straight match. Coming off its first win of the season, King’s is looking to continue riding momentum this weekend when the Monarchs travel to Williamsport to take on MAC-leading Lycoming. It’s not going to be easy for King’s (1-3 overall, 1-2 MAC) to notch its second straight victory for the first time in the Jeff Knarr coaching era, but they are ready to give it their best shot. “We met the goals and did the things we had to do to win that game,” Knarr said. “But now we have to put four quarters together and get off the bus right and build.” The Warriors (4-1, 3-0) have won big games in the conference after dropping their season opener. First, they beat defending MAC champion Delaware Valley by 10 points, then took care of Lebanon Valley and Albright. They haven’t put up extraordinary numbers like some other teams in the conference, but they have been successful by playing smash-mouth football. Lycoming has run the ball an average of 40.5 times per game, picking up 145.2 yards per game on the ground. The team has two backs who see significant carries in Parker Showers and Craig Needhammer. One thing working against the Monarchs is that linebacker Ryan Cordingly will miss his fourth straight game. Even though they won last week, Cordingly is a strong presence in the middle of the King’s defense. Knarr is hoping his AllMAC ’backer returns in two weeks after next week’s bye. On paper, the Monarchs total offense and total defense ranks higher than the Warriors in King’s (1-3, 1-2 MAC) at Lycoming (4-1, 3-0) When: 1:30 p.m. Saturday at David Person Field, Williamsport Last Meeting: The Warriors won 42-12 last season. Last week: King’s picked up its first win of the season beating Misericordia 55-17, while Lycoming defeated Albright 29-14. About the Monarchs: They are ranked eighth in the MAC in total offense with 299.0 per game and are third in the conference in total defense, giving up 316.5 yards per game. About the Warriors: Their offense ranks ninth in the league in total offense with 292.5 yards per game and are fifth in the MAC in total defense, allowing an average of 355.5 per game. King’s will win if it can contain Lycoming receiver Jarrin Campman, who is having a stellar season so far with five touchdowns. Lycoming will win if quarterback Tyler Jenny gets the ball to Campman, and the running game of Parker Showers and Craig Needhammer can break some big runs. Monarch Team Leaders Passing: Tyler Hartranft 41-of-88, 5 interceptions, 464 yards, 2 TD Rushing: Kyle McGrath 84 carries, 475 yards, 4 TD Receiving: Dan Kempa 8 receptions, 179 yards, 1 TD Defense: Kris Matthews 30 tackles; Jake Ksiaszkiewicz 3 sacks; Evan Crisman 1 interception, TD Warriors Team Leaders Passing: Tyler Jenny 61-of-102, 2 interceptions, 582 yards, 5 TD Rushing: Craig Needhammer 58 carries, 217 yards, 2 TD Receiving: Jarrin Campman 18 receptions, 178 yards, 5 TD Defense: Kabongo Bukasa 32 tackles; Nate Oropollo 5 sacks; Tanner Troutman 3 interceptions both categories, but Knarr knows those numbers don’t tell the whole story. “What’s skewed their offensive stats is that they’ve created turnovers and made some plays in the kick game,” Knarr added. “When they have short drives, you’re not going to pack on the stats from there.” First victory could make for warm homecoming By DAVE ROSENGRANT [email protected] The biggest weekend in Misericordia football history will get underway Saturday afternoon. The Cougars will host second-year program Stevenson in the school’s first homecoming to include football. Kickoff is at1 p.m. at Mangelsdorf Field, pitting the two most recent teams entering the MAC. It’s also the second straight week that the Cougars (0-4 overall, 0-3 MAC) will face a winless team with the hopes of claiming the first win in school history. Last week, Misericordia fell to King’s, but put up its largest point total with 17 and could’ve pulled out a victory if some things – like three turnovers – were avoided. The Cougars earned praise from King’s coach Jeff Knarr. “When you’re told that here’s a brand new football team they’re going to have all freshman and didn’t play a JV season the year before, you think they’re going to be really overmatched,” the King’s coach said. “But they played hard and battled the whole game and they execute fairly well.” Stevenson (0-4 overall, 0-3 MAC) was in the same position as Misericordia a year ago. The Mustangs entered their first season in 2011 without a JV season and won their first game in the second week of the season before finishing the campaign with Stevenson (0-4, 0-3 MAC) at Misericordia (0-4, 0-3) When: 1 p.m. Saturday at Mangelsdorf Field, Dallas Last Meeting: This is the first meeting. Last week: Stevenson lost to Lebanon Valley 31-28, while the Cougars fell to King’s 55-17. About the Mustangs: They are 0-4 and have been outscored 120-76, but one game was decided in overtime and another by just three points. About the Cougars: Quarterback Jeffrey Puckett had a big game last week against King’s, going 17-of-34 for 193 yards and two touchdowns. Stevenson will win if it continues to grind out the rushing yards led by MAC leading rusher K.K. Smith. Misericordia will win if it can grow on last week’s outing and start to score more while not committing any turnovers.

RUGABER AP Economics Writer WASHINGTON — A spate of data Thursday painted a mixed picture of the U.S. economy: Demand for longlasting manufactured goods fell, and slightly fewer people signed contracts to buy homes. At the same time, the job market looked only a little better. Taken together, the reports suggest the economy is growing only modestly and not quickly enough to spur much hiring. “The economy overall has only weak forward momentum,” Nigel Gault, chief U.S. economist at IHS Global Insight, said in a note to clients. “The news from housing may be improving, but manufacturing is struggling now.” One report appeared to offer some hope that the job market will improve. Weekly applications for unemployment benefits plunged 26,000 to a seasonally adjusted 359,000, the lowest level in two months, the Labor Department said. The four-week average, a less volatile measure, fell to 374,000. Applications are a measure of the pace of layoffs. When they consistently fall below 375,000, it typically indicates that hiring is strong enough to lower the unemployment rate. Economists were mildly encouraged by the unemployment applications. Still, many still expect the government’s employment report for September to show only modest job gains, perhaps about 100,000. That’s about the same as in August. The September jobs report will be released next Friday. Some recent indicators have been more optimistic. Consumer confidence jumped to a seven-month high in September, the Conference Board said Tuesday. Home prices are rising steadily nationwide. And sales of new homes remained near a two-year high in August, the Commerce Department said Wednesday. Mattress makers merger Tempur-Pedic, the 20-year-old leader in foam mattresses, is buying morethan-a century-old rival Sealy for about $228.6 million in cash. The acquisition comes as competition has increased in the mattress industry, with makers stepping up their marketing and promotions to help lure cost-conscious consumers into making big purchases. Tempur-Pedic says it will also assume or pay back all of Sealy Corp.’s outstanding debt. They say that the transaction will create a $2.7 billion global bedding company. Campbell closing 2 plants Campbell Soup Co. is closing two U.S. plants and cutting more than 700 jobs as it looks to trim costs amid declining consumption of its canned soups. The world’s largest soup maker said Thursday that it will close a plant in Sacramento, Calif., that has about 700 full-time workers. The plant, which makes soups, sauces and beverages, was built in 1947 and is the company’s oldest in the country. Campbell also plans to shutter a spice plant in South Plainfield, N.J. that has 27 employees.

Today that deficit stands at less than one inch. Drier air now moving in aloft will shut off the rain this morning and there may be some peeks of sun this afternoon. Another shower could arrive early tonight then on Saturday a light northerly wind will maintain cool daytime temperatures under a mix of clouds and sun– very fall-like indeed. Colder temperatures aloft on Sunday will keep skies mostly cloudy and heighten the chance for some afternoon showers. The full Harvest Moon is tomorrow night. -Tom Clark m timesleaderautos.com 196600 Mostly cloudy, rain in the evening SUNDAY Mostly clouds, showers SATURDAY Partly sunny to cloudy 776501 68° 56° TODAY NATIONAL FORECAST: Rain and scattered thunderstorms will accompany a low pressure system as it crosses the Northeast today. Expect scattered showers and thunderstorms from the Mid-Atlantic states, through the Tennessee Valley and into the Southern Plains, as well. Heavy rain could affect parts of Texas. Thunderstorm activity will be more isolated over the Intermountain West.
