ScrantonCity Council-man BobMcGoffhit thenail on thehead.
“Council isnot going to solve it on theirown. The mayor is not going tosolveitonhisown,andPELisn’tgoing to solve it. It has to be a
joint effort. Otherwise, we aredoomed to failure,” he said dur-ing council’s Tuesday meeting.
“It” is thecity’s crippling bud-get deficit which seems tochange by the day or by the au-thority that presents the latestinformation.
That’s not because the infor-
mation from any source is bad.It’s because the data keeps get-ting worse.
Thelatest figures putus close
to $8.2 million in the hole, ac-cording to the PennsylvaniaEconomy League, the adminis-trator of the city’s distressedmunicipalities plan.
WhileI believe thenumbers, Ithinkthe excuse to borrow moremoney PEL recently presentedin a letter to the city is a poorone. It’s borrowing, in the formof a Tax Anticipation Note,that’s spelling disaster this year.
A $9 million paymentrealistical-ly could not be met, preventing futureTAN loans to aidthe city.
Were it not for an $11 million
TAN note paid earlier this yearto settle 2010 debts, weprobably
wouldn’t be in the mess in thefirst place.
Thecitymustprioritize, butitcannot do so in a childish fash-ion where one party sits in thecornerwithtearsin their eyes inorder to get their way. The planmust be collaborative and,above all, it should be done in apublic forum.
Agendas for parks must beabandoned in lieu of more cru-cial services due to all Scranto-nians. While I don’t agree withCouncil President Janet Evans’comparison between a shakyfoundation andplaying on a jun-gle gym because it loses impact
in the faceof humor, she is rightthat the city’s future cannot bebuilt on the small number of property values raised by a few
parks and trees.Recreation is fine, but who
willbe driving tothe parkwhenthe streetlights are out andcrime is on the rise?
We don’t need a “parks may-or” or a bitter legislative arm.
We need answers, and the rightones won’t come through sub-mitted plans, rejected amend-ments, and overridden vetoes.
Thatplan,we’veseen, hasfailed.Real government takes collab-
oration,but we’ve trodden downthis road too far for too long todetermine who’s at fault for tak-ing the ball and going home.
We deserve better from all of our elected officials.
By my count, they have two
months to deliver it in the formof 2012’s proposed budget.Get itdonetheright way – to-
gether.
Scranton needs a collaborative solution

hile an audit of the city’s
federal funds may have
improved the way it re-ports on community andeconomic
development programs, abound-
ing concerns from the Department
of Housing and Urban Develop-
ment put the city’s neighborhood
police patrol under a microscope
that some say cost 13 officers their
jobs last month.
A federal inspector general’sreport published in Nov. 2010outlined $11.7 million of “ques-tioned costs” regarding federalfunding provided to the city of
Scranton,but theOffice of Eco-nomic and Community Devel-opmenthas made strides toim-prove the way it documentscash flow to supported pro-grams, OECD Executive Direc-tor Linda Aebli said Thursday.
Many of those initiativeshave worked, but there is con-cern over the implementationof a Neighborhood Police Pa-troland thecitystill must prove
that it used a small portion of that money appropriately, ac-cording to a monitoring reviewsent from the HUD dated Aug.5.
The city must repay up to$106,336 in federal CommunityDevelopment Block Grantfunds from local accounts if itcannot prove that the projectsfall within federal guidelines.
Those projects include con-struction damage to the roof of a buildingadjacentto theCaseyGarage on Lackawanna andAdams Avenues totaling $49,500 paid for by the Scran-
ton Redevelopment Authority;administrative fees paid to theArchitectural Heritage Associ-ationof $10,000; administrativecosts of $24,529 paid to Penn’s
Northeast, an economic devel-opment partnership; and par-tial salary payments of at least$22,307.60to the city’s directorof Licensing,Inspection, & Per-mits from 2007 to 2010.
OECD has the right to re-spond to each of those claimson or before Oct. 9, and Aeblidrafted a response letter on

SCRANTON – For thesecondconsecutive meeting, Lacka-
wanna County Commissionersapprovedtwo piecesof baseball-related legislation on Wednes-day, including a managementcontract that will further theplanned $40 million recon-struction of PNC Field.
The first was an agreementbetween the county, the Multi-Purpose Stadium Authority, andPNC Bank that will utilize thecounty’shoteltax earningsto se-cure notesusedto refund theau-thority’s debt as well as providenew funding for stadium im-provements, according to Mi-chael Vind, the county’s finan-cial advisor.
“This, in no way, shape orform, obligates the county forany liability on the notes,” Vind
noted, adding that this includesno fees or cost to the county.
Commissioners CoreyO’Brien and Mike Washo votedin favor while Bruce Small-acombe abstained because he“did not see the numbers aheadoftime” and felthe did not haveenough information at thattimeto vote.
The commissioners alsounanimously approved a con-struction management contract
with Alvin H. Butz,Inc. ofAllen-town to oversee the demolition,renovation, and new construc-tion of thestadium. Thecompa-ny will receive a $500,000 lumpsum fee, and total pre-construc-tion costs cannot exceed$174,400. Any savings fromthese costs will revert back tothe county.
A request for proposals waspublished in November of 2010
with a due date of Dec. 3. Thecounty received 10 submissionsand interviews were conductedJan. 19 and 20 by representa-
tives of the county, the stadiumauthority, architects Ewing-Cole, and management compa-ny Mandalay Baseball Proper-ties, said county Chief of Staff Maria Elkins.
The commissioners approvedan architectural and engineer-ing design contract with Ewing-Cole onAug.24. Therenovationproject is scheduled to begin onMarch 20, 2012, and continuethrough March 5, 2013, accord-ing to a copy of the contract.
In other business, commis-sioners unanimously approvedaleaseagreement with PAHemp-stead Road Associates for ap-proximately1,820 square feet of officespace at space at theRockCreek CorporateCenter,1444 E.Lackawanna Ave., Olyphant.
The offices of Magisterial Dis-trictJudgeJohn Pesota,current-ly located at 901 Enterprise St.,
Dickson City, were purchasedby the borough last year andmust be vacated by Oct. 1, forc-ingthecountytofindanewloca-tion.
Rent for the first year will cot$2,350.83 a month and will in-crease to $2,502.50 per monththe following year, after whichthe base rent will increase 2.5percent each year on the anni-
versary of the commencementdate throughout the five-yearagreement.
Smallacombe asked why thelowest bidder wasn’t chosen,but as the commissionerscrunched the numbers, theyfound that another location
wouldonly cost about $50less amonth and it would have takenabout six weeks to move intoother facility, exceeding theOct. 1 deadline. Additionally,the Rock Creek Corporate Cen-ter providedmore suitable park-ing conditions.
“Itwasthebestdeal,giventhecurrent circumstance,” Elkinssaid.

County selects PNC Field
construction companyByRICH HOWELLS
SCRANTON – City Councildiscussed the city’s grim finan-cialsituationat length on Tues-day,suggesting the reclassifica-
tion of the city among otherstepstheyhopeto take tomendthe city’s “significant and im-mediate multi-million dollardeficit” and “mismanagement”of funds.
In a letter dated Sept. 9 andreceivedby council onSept.13,Pennsylvania Economy LeagueExecutive Director GeraldCrosssaid that thecity’s Act47distressed status coordinatorbelieves the operating budget
deficit to be $8.2 million and is“concerned” that the city willnotbe able tomakeits $9.5 mil-lion payment on its 2011 TaxAnticipation Note due Dec. 31,nor can it fund other year-endobligations, such as two regu-lar payroll periods.
“…We recommend that theCity’s governing bodies beginimmediately the process of anunfunded borrowing in theamount of $8,200,000 in order
to meet its remaining 2011 fi-nancial obligations,” Cross
wrote, adding that this will re-quire a hearing before, and theapproval of, the LackawannaCounty Court of Common
Pleas. While many cities across
Northeast Pennsylvania arefeeling the effects of the eco-nomicrecession,CouncilPresi-dent Janet Evans feels that
some of Scranton’s issues areunique to the city.
“It has no anonymous do-nors, unlike Dunmore,no land-fill business to supplement itsrevenues,unlike Taylor,and nothriving businessand shopping centers, unlike Dickson Cityand Moosic. Scranton suffersfromthe highest state-wide un-employment figures and aquarter of its steadily decreas-ingpopulationlivesat orbelow
the poverty level,” Evans ex-plained.
She heavily criticized MayorChris Doherty’s leadership,pointing out that under thecity’s19 years under distressedstatus, Doherty was on councilforfouryearsof thoseyears andhas subsequently served asmayor for 10. Duringthattime,she believes he has focusedmore money on parks andgreen space than deteriorating
infrastructure throughout thecity.
Administrative suggestionsfor new revenue, such as thesale of city-owned parking me-ters to the Scranton Parking
Authority, willnot succeed,shebelieves, as the authority is in“poor position to borrow $10million for such a purpose.”
CouncilmanBob McGoff feltthat the “blame game” for the
city’s problemswas useless andendangering thecity’sabilitytosecure TANs in the future.
“Idon’tcarewhoyoublame– we still have a problem,”McGoff said.
“We’re looking at some sce-narios that really are not good.Yes, we’ve heard rumors of more layoffs. No one wants tosee that.There’s a possibilityof paylesspaydays. Nobody wantsthat.There’s a distinct possibil-
ityof default on TAN-B. It can’thappen. There’s a distinct pos-sibility that we’ll fail to get
TANs for 2012, which meansmonths of payless paydays.And, ultimately, there’s proba-bly a possibility of out-and-outbankruptcy that exists if wecan’t solve theseproblems, andbankruptcy is not an answer.It’s not a solution.”
McGoff suggestedthat coun-cil and the mayor work togeth-
er on a joint committeeto formthe2012 budget andavoid a re-peatof lastyear’s budget battle,
which ended in both sides

Sept. 6 to notify HUD that it would. For example, Aebli saidthat the LIPs director continuesto work on CDBG projects, de-spite HUD’s opinion that theyhave “not done so in recent
years.”
Audit improves systems
While a federal audit can beoff-putting for some, Aebli hastried to view it positively.
“Do I think it’s an eye openerfor the whole office? I think it
was a good experience for usand taught us that we can’t belax,” Aebli said. “It made usmore aware of what we have todo.
“Document, document, docu-ment.If it’s not inthefile, itnev-er happened.”
Improvements have come in various forms, including the es-tablishment of checking ac-countsforeach of their federallyfunded programsrather than re-
lying solely, and sometimes in-accurately, on the IntegratedDisbursement and InformationSystem offered by HUD.
“It’s much cleaner,” Aeblisaid.
HUD officials agree.“It appears that the City is
making progress” on distin-guishingbetween HUDand oth-er federal funding sources, sup-porting CDBG expenses withdetailed accountingrecords and
supporting documentation, andpreparing budgets of projected
versus actual expenses, themonitoring review states.
It has“substantiallyimprovedits CDBG sub-recipient con-tracts” and implemented strong plansto monitor its projects,thereview continues.
Aebli said turnover in the of-fice is rapid, which HUD recog-nizedin itsfindings,anda reduc-tion in OECD salaries imposed
by council’s budget forced someto seek other employment. Fewremain with a depth of experi-ence shared by Aebli, who has
worked at OECD for 22 years,becoming its executive directorin Nov. 2007.
Concern over cops
Despite improved accounting
practices, OECD could not res-cue the city’s Neghborhood Po-lice Program, commonly re-ferred to as Comm-D Police, asthey are traditionally fundedthrough CDBG monies.
Federal monies support pro-
grams suchas neighborhoodpo-lice in low-to-moderate incomeareas, sidewalk reconstruction,and housing for the chronicallyhomeless, according to docu-ments proposing funding forsuch programs in 2011.
Both 2011 budgets proposedbyMayor ChrisDohertyand lat-er amended and approved byCity Council calledforthe useof $666,807 in federal grants tofund payroll for 13 officers this
year, marking a significant in-
crease in the city’s Comm-D offi-cers.
However, following a varietyof questions from HUD, nofunds have been dispersed to re-imburse the police departmentfor more than $427,000 in pay-roll costs from Jan.1 to Aug. 26,based on copies of neighbor-hoodpolicepay voucherssent to
city council from City Controll-er Roseann Novembrino onSept. 12.
The cityeliminated13 officersthis year, citing a growing oper-ating deficit.
“Essentially, they were theneighborhood police patrol offi-cers,” ScrantonPoliceChief DanDuffy said. “The way it worked
was they were paid directly outof our budget, but there weresome issues with HUD whereOECD couldn’t reimburse thecity.”
The departmenthas notbeen,andDuffyestimated will notbe,reimbursed at all this year.
That raised serious questionsfrom City Council about the im-plementation of future commu-
nity police programs.“You have to maintain the
2010number (ofcity funded po-lice personnel), which is what
we did in our budget, and thelegislation that accompaniedour budget keeps the numbersat the 2010 levels for police andfire. We didn’t add anybody. We
just kept it thesame andfunded
it.That’s whatyouhave todo tobeable toadd Comm-Dpeople,”Council President Janet Evanssaid in an interview Sept. 6.
Council manning clauses thatset minimum staffing levels forthe police and fire departmentshave been overlooked by thead-ministration since last year. A
judge recentlyfoundthat setting staffing levels for those publicsafety departments is an execu-tive function and one that coun-cil, the city’s legislative arm,could not impose.
The mayor has further chal-lenged council to bring him tocourt over legislation they’vepassed that they feel isn’t being followed.
Federal guidelines for CDBGstatethat a neighborhood policeprogram must be an increase inexisting, locally funded policethat has existed for 12 monthspreceding the submission of anew action plan, putting aScranton program in questionuntil at least 2013, according toAebli.
“This provision was put intoplace to ensure that localitiesdid not use CDBG funds to re-
place local or state monies tofund essential services typicallyoffered by the local governmententity,” theHUD Officeof BlockGrant Assistance handbookstates.
“There was no way to showthat they were being used in ad-dition to our regular amount of officers.Weactuallywere saving thembynotlayingthemoffbackin January,” Duffy said.
Beat vs. patrolPart ofthe newplanfor neigh-borhood police in 2011 was toplace officers in speciallymarked cars, distinguishing them from traditional officers.NPP officers were previouslybeat cops on foot or on bicyclepatrol.
“This change eliminates thebiggest distinction between theNeighborhood Police Patrol andthe regular police,” the Augustmonitoring review states. “Itcreates a major risk that Scran-ton will, at some time, cut backon thenumber of regular police.Any reduction in the number of regular police will make the en-tire expenditure of CDBG fundsfor the Neighborhood Police Pa-trol ineligible from that pointforward.”
Because the city hasn’t fund-ed theprogram with federal dol-lars, they don’t owe any cashback. Some, however, have ar-gued that the absence of federalfunding cost 13 officers their
jobs.“He (Doherty) is using theselayoffs to say, ‘We have thishugedeficit and it has to be paid.
We’ve got to save as much mon-ey as possible.’ Well, you’re notsaving a penny on those 13 po-lice officers. That’s a horse of adifferentcolor, andI don’t know
whyhe’s doing that,”Evans saidSept. 6.
Other questions originallygave Aebli pause over funding the neighborhood police.
“In the beginning, we werefinding that their paperwork
wasn’t correct,” she said. “Youhad to be a second responder.Youcan’tbe takingpeople to jailor sitting behinda desk down atheadquarters. You have to beout on the beat.”
The decision to withholdfunding, she said, was hers.
“I have the inspector generallooking atme, andI’mjustgoing to write the checks? No,” shesaid.
For now, the $666,807 pro-posed for use this year sits in anaccount held by the UnitedStates Treasury. A tentative2012 CDBG request calls for an-other $200,000 for neighbor-hood police but no money forneighborhood patrol vehicles.
“If we fund them again,they’re going back on the beatlike they were before,” Aeblisaid.
But with more cuts looming as city deficits climb and a $9million Tax Anticipation Notepayment comes ever closer, noone can be surewhen Scranton’sneighborhood police patrol willbe fundedby thefederal govern-ment again.
Doherty said Friday that he“would neverhamstring a futureadministration” with clausesand classifications over howmany police officers and fire-fighters it should have in orderto maintain funding for suchprograms.
For now, Doherty said, “Thequestion is what bills are going tobe paid and who’s going tobepaid.”

SCRANTON – The city’szoning board denied a varia-nce to Cedar Residence, Inc.after residents spoke out
against the proposed treat-ment center at 929 CedarAve., Scranton, during theirSept. 14 meeting.
The all-male facility, which began operation inMayof thisyear, helps adultsover the age of 18 and whohave recently undertakenprevious treatment for alco-hol or drug abuse problems.No violent offenders are per-mitted to the facility
The transitional facilityprovides group and one-on-one counseling along withskill building activities tohelp residents “get back ontheir feet,” said Clinical Di-rector Edward Walsh.
Thereare currently 11 resi-dents living in the treatmentcenter with about five or sixstaff members on hand.
Local resident Theresa
Shields, who lives behindthe building, had seriousconcerns about the centerand its residents.
Her 13-year-old daughtermust walk by the transition-al facility on her way toschool, and she claimed herdaughter is scared of theres-idents. She also stated thatno one has approached heror her family about the facil-ity being established.
It was also brought to theboard’s attention that CedarResidence, Inc., ExecutiveDirectorLarryRinish hadnoidea that South Scranton In-
termediate School was soclose to the personal carecenter or that children fromMcNichols Plaza werepicked up by buses at a cor-ner on the same block.
All five zoning boardmembers voted no to denythe sought variance.
In other zoning boardnews:
• A variance sought byColby Vonderheid for a cre-matorium at Kane Streetand Cemetery Avenuein Mi-nooka was unanimously de-nied. Vonderheid already op-erates a crematorium withinthe boroughof Archbald and would like to move his busi-ness closer to the Scrantonarea where most of his cli-ents are. Residents opposedthe crematorium being putup in their “backyard,”claiming declining property values and quality of life is-sues.
• The United Neighbor-hood Community Develop-ment Corporation was ap-
proved for a variance tobuild a modern townhousedevelopment from 609 to619 Cedar Avenue in an ef-fort to revitalize SouthScranton. Theproject willbeongoing for the next three years.
• Zoning board memberJimWilliams obtained unan-imous support fora variancefor a hoagie and pizza shopat 2727 N. Main Ave., Scran-
ton, ina structure whichhadbeen vacant for five years. The shop is set to be strictlya take-out restaurant withclose to 10 parking spaces.

He recalled the founda-

“What universities claimto be teaching their stu-dents – specifically, tothink critically, reason ana-lytically, solve problems,and communicate clearly –is necessary, but not suffi-
cient, for Jesuit universi-
ties,” he said. “For a Jesuituniversityshould ask moreof its students by challeng-ing them to make Ignatius’charge – his notion of ser- vice – their own.
“The ideal of a personaltransformation requires a
rigorous education to pre-pare students to becomeethical and compassionateleaders who will infuse so-ciety withfaith and justice,informed by knowledge.For personal transforma-tion to be effective, aca-demic, moral and spiritualexperience must be inte-grated with and enhancedby learning outside the
classroom.”

S CR AN TO N - S ch oo lboard members unanimous-l y approve d a motion atthe ir M on day, Sept. 12meeting to support the re-
institution of the Local Ec-onomic Revitalization TaxAssistance, or LERTA, act.
The district conducted apublic hearing over the pro-posed reinstatement onAug. 8 andapprovedMonday’smotion, 8-0,despite pub-l ic opposi-tion ex-pressed lastmonth.B oard Di-rector PaulO’Malley was absent.
LERTA isa tool for fu-ture taxgenerationthat pro- vides devel-
opers with areal estatetax freeze. The district ap-proved the resolution con-ditionally as it “cannot ini-tiate, implement or admin-ister this program” as thosefunctions fall outside theirscope of expertise. Devel-opers will now have to seekapproval from either thecity of Scranton or Lacka- wanna County to be imple-
mented. The proposal was sought
by developers who wish tobuild a senior housing com-plex on Delaware Streetand Dickson Avenue in thecity’s Green Ridge section.
The previous LERTA pro-g ra m wa s d is so lve d i n2003, district solicitor Har-ry McGra th s aid la stmonth, and was the genesisbehind the Mall at Steam-town.
Wilkes-Barre-based Atty.Frank Hoegen, who repre-
sents Affordable SeniorHousing Opportunities of New York, Inc., said Tues-d ay that the group w as“thrilled” that the districtapproved the proposal.
Hoegen said he intends
to send copies of the dis-trict’s resolutions to solic-itors serving Scranton andLac kawann a C ou nty toseek their approval and op-portunities to speak publi-
c ly aboutthe group’splans.
During publiccomment,ScrantonFederationof Te ac h-e rs Pre si -dent Ro -semary Bo-land ques-tioned thedistrict’slack of public re-ports fromthe Labor
RelationsCommitteefor “months.”
“That’s perplexing be-cause there’s a whole lot of labor relations in questionaround here, and there’snever been a report,” Bo-land said.
In oth er busin ess, theboard u nani mously ap-proved a resolution to keeptax rate increases for the
2012 calendar year by nomore than the 1.4 percentbase index set by the Penn-sylvania Department of Education.
The district also appoint-ed Corey McNulty as an as-sistant boys’ soccer coachat We st Scranton HighSchool; and hired part-timeart teacher Sarah Strong,school psychologist SophieGen el lo, and part- ti meparaprofessional TiffanyMegotz.
SCRANTON SCHOOL BOARD
District givesgo-ahead to LERTABy CHRISTOPHER J. HUGHES
The district took time duringtheir Sept. 12 meeting to recog-
nize the contributions of thelate Howard Ufberg, formerowner of Starr Uniform Compa-ny, who passed away on July 11.“This kind and generous mannot only ran a program thatdiscounted uniforms for stu-dents on free and reducedlunches but also donated freeuniforms to students and fam-ilies who showed the greatestneed,” the resolution reads.Ufberg’s wife, Marcia, was pre-sent to accept the honoraryresolution.
UFBERG HONORED
SCRANTON – City
Council unanimous-
ly gave final passage
to implement a consolidat-
ed submission for commu-
nity planning and develop-
ment programs to be fund-
ed under the federal Com-
munity Development Block
Grant, Home Investment
Partnership, and Emergen-
cy Shelter Grant programs
on Tuesday. The U.S. Department of
Housing and Urban Develop-ment informed the city via aJune 3 letter that CDBG overallfunding was reduced by over$600 million, resultingin alloca-tion reductions of approximate-ly 16.5 percent, while HOMEfunding was reduced by over$200 million, or about 11.7 per-cent.
This forced the city to reeval-uateits proposal for eligible pro-
jects in 2011, and after review,council made their own amend-ments to the legislation beforepassage.
Council reduced funds tothe planned Novembrino
splash park by $150,000, theClover Field Playground by$150,000, the United Neigh-borhood Center’s ProjectHope by $21,850 and the cen-ter’s condemnation assistanceby $9,200, the Boys & GirlsClub Park It program by$15,600, and the Deutsch In-stitute by $300.
Council increased funds forpolice vehicles by $141,000, pro-
jects by the Pinebrook Neigh-borhood Association by$35,000, and moneytowards fix-ing blighted properties by$170,950, balancing total reduc-tions with total additions by$346,950.
Councilman Frank Joyce saidhewas notin directcontactwiththe city’s Office of Economicand Community Development
when the amendments weredrafted, but said that city clerkNancy Krake was in contact
with OECD Executive DirectorLinda Aebli.
“Making this amendment in-
volved tough decisions. Person-ally, I wish no cuts had to bemade. Over the past year, I, as
well many ofmy colleagues,hadtheopportunityto hear many of the concerns of residents, andfrom hearing the concerns of such residents, it’s evident thatpeople are primarily concernedabout public safety in theirneighborhoods. This is the pri-mary reason why this amend-
ment is being proposed to-night,” Joyce explained. The proposal for 2012 HUD
funding wasalso approvedon itsfirst reading on Tuesday. A pub-lichearingonthesefundswillbeheldbeforecouncil’s nextsched-uled meeting on Sept. 20, start-
ing at 6 p.m., allowing citizens
to comment on how they feelthe money should be spent be-fore final passage.
Citizens in attendance on Tuesday did bring up concernsabout public safety cuts and af-fected responsetimes. Addition-ally, they mentioned rumorsthat more police officersmay becut by the end of the year in or-der to save the city money.
“In most cases, on average,
the crime is already committed.Response time is definitely im-portant, but our response timehasnot been jeopardized as a re-sult ofthe loss ofpersonnel,”Po-lice Chief Dan Duffy responded
when asked for comment on Wednesday.
Fed fund is focus of public hearingBy RICH HOWELLS
“Over the past year, I, as well many of mycolleagues, had the opportunity to hear many of the
concerns of residents … (and) it’s evident thatpeople are primarily concerned about public safetyin their neighborhoods. This is the primary reasonwhy this amendment is being proposed tonight.”

claiming the other was respon-sible for 2011’s budget deficit. The banking community’s con-cern, he said, is that both sidescannot work together, making them unwilling to loan the cityany more money.
“Council is not going to solveitontheirown.Themayorisnotgoing tosolveit onhis own,andPEL isn’t goingto solve it. It hasto be a joint effort. Otherwise,
we are doomed to failure,” he
said.Evans said the banks are
equally concerned about the re-sultof the city’s independentau-ditby Robert Rossi& Co., whichhasagain been delayed this yearbecause oflatereportsby city of-ficials.
“The bank wants the audit. Well, as we all know, there is noaudit because the departmentheads refuse to provide the in-formation to the auditors. Now,
wecanconjectureas towhy thatis andwhat that hasbeen occur-ring each year. Frankly, I feel it’sdone purposely and it’s arriving later and later and later each
year so that banks will not seethe city’s audits before they
agree to provide TANs,” Evanssuggested.
Councilman Frank Joyceagreed that there must be morecooperation with the mayor, butsaid he wants to see them bemore open and honest withcouncil. After he and Evans re-cently met with Business Ad-ministrator Ryan McGowan,Po-lice Chief Dan Duffy, and unionrepresentatives, he said he hasagreed with “about half” of theadministration’s suggestionsbut wants to see PEL’s input be-fore a budget “is dropped incouncil’s lap” with further sug-gested layoffs.
“At this point, you can lay off the entire city of Scranton and
we would not be able to makethat payment with the deficitthat we are currently facing un-less we follow the past proce-dure of using the next year’s
TAN to pay the previous TAN, which we do not want to do,”Joyce said.
Doherty’s proposed 2011 bud-get eliminated 32 firefightersand 10 police officers, thoughmost of those layoffs were pre-
vented in council’s amendedbudget. Ultimately, the mayorlaid off eight firefighters and 13police officers on Aug. 29.
Evans asked city clerk NancyKrake and council solicitorBoyd Hughes to send a letter toGov. Tom Corbett requesting of-
ficial certification of the 2010census for the city, which is thefirststepin theprocessof chang-ing the classification of Scran-ton as a Class 2A city. This
would enable the city to levy a
commuter tax and payroll tax,shesaid, as wellas potentially al-ter the structure of city govern-ment.
“Although Scranton is the on-ly Class 2A city (in the state), itno longer hasa population to re-tain this classification,” Evanssaid,adding thatsome business-es, such as banks, do not cur-rently pay business taxes toScranton, but would be subjectto the payroll tax.
“As experienced in Pitts-burgh, a payroll tax abolishesmercantile and business privi-lege taxes and lessons the bur-den on small business while itforcesbig business topay itsfairshare. Scranton cannot surviveby increasing its current taxes.”
When reached for commenton Friday, Doherty said he willsubmit a “balanced plan” tocouncil on Tuesday to addressthe city’s financial issues. Thelegislators, he added, carry “amorethan equal role”in making decisions about the budget andthedirectionof thecity,alluding to council’s four-vote superma-
jority and their power to amendhis fiscal plan.

TUNKHANNOCK - TheSusquehanna River floodedstreets of downtown Tunk-hannock last week, as a re-sult of the Tropical StormLee, forcing many local busi-nesses to close their doors,including Gay’s True Value
Hardware, Bridge StreetMarket, Brick’s Supermar-ket and the Dietrich Thea-ter.
As a result of non-stopcommunity support, someof those businesses will notbe closed for long.
Dietrich Theater Execu-tive Director Hildy Morgansaid there were dozens of people cleaning up the messthe storm caused when she
arrived at the theater Fri-day, Sept. 9, and many re-turned earlier this week.
Volunteers ranged fromindividuals to groups like
Tunkhannock High Schoolbasketball and footballteams and class of 2014.
“Their generosity with us,the time and effort, has justbrought us to tears morethan once in the last fewdays. It’s just been incredi-ble, and we’re just so grate-ful,” said Morgan.
Members of the communi-
ty started pitching in Thurs-day afternoon, Sept. 8, tak-ing the seats out of the thea-ters and storing them in asafe place during the storm.On Monday, volunteers
were busy reinstalling theseats and cleaning in prep-aration for the grand reo-pening, which was set forSept. 16.
The Dietrich will reopenin time for the 2011 Fall FilmFestival opening night gala.In addition to volunteers,Morgan credited employeeErica Rogler for helping thetheater to avoid cancelling or delaying the event.
“Honestly, the best thing in the world that happened
was Erica, who’s actually aPenn State graduate in engi-neering and is our culturaldirector. She just knew whatto do. She knew what to tellpeople to do,” said Morgan.
While much progress hastaken place, they are still farfrom finished with the floodeffects.
The storm ruined t heHVAC system in two of theDietrich’s four theaters andthat they will need to be re-placed before winter.
“What we need more than
anything in the world rightnow is donations,” said Mor-gan. “If we don’t get thatsystem in, we would be ruin-ed, because we need fourtheaters to run the program-ming.”
Morgan estimated theDietrich will need to raiseapproximately $100,000 topay for the new system andmake up for the income lostbeing closed.
Tax deductible donationscan be sent to Dietrich The-ater, 60 E. Tioga St., Tunk-hannock, Pa., 18657.
A number of business andhome owners in the Tunk-hannock area are still clean-ing and repairing damage.
Those interested in volun-teering can call (570) 836-2828, or visit the DisasterCenter set up at the Tunk-hannock Area School Dis-trict Administration Build-ing, located at 41 Philadel-phia Ave.

Biden arrived in Duryea atabout 9:35 a.m. for a nearlytwo-hour tour of flood-damaged ar-easin theborough.
Biden’s message seemed to
have gotten through to the peo-ple who have been cleaning outafter Tropical Storm Lee’s rain-fall causedthe Lackawanna Riv-ertooverflowitsbanksandpourinto their homes and lives.
“I’ve been in Duryea four orfive times since the flooding,and this is the first time I’veseen these people smile,”Bar-letta said. “I think the vicepresident being here is greatand his visit has given them
hope.” The first home Biden visit-
edwas at100 Chittenden St.–a three-unit building at thecorner of Walnut Street. Jim-my and Kathy Pliska own thebuilding and are struggling todecide if they’ll move back tothehouse built by Jimmy Plis-ka’sgreat-grandparents.
When Biden walked in andsaw the damage, he said,
“Wow.”“Hang on. Thisis notimetogive up,” Biden said. Hewouldrepeat that encouragement toeveryone he met.
The flooding was so bad,Pliska, 47, and his wife, Kath-leen, 48, have all but decidedto sell the house and movethemselvesand theirchildren,James, 12, and Julia, 11, else-
where.“We’ll probably board it up
and maybe a contractor willbuy it and turn it into apart-ments,” he said. Though hehad flood insurance, which
would not cover all the dam-age, he said he would not re-build because of the cost, thepossibility of a repeat floodand the mold that could exa-cerbatehisdaughter’sasthma.
“It’s goingto happenagain,”hesaid.“AndI’mgoingtobeat
work and hear them say theriver’s rising.”
A photo of Pliska’s great-grandparents hangs on the
wall in thestairwaythat leads tothesecondflood.Pliska showedBidena photoalbum– imagesof lifebeforethe flood. ThePliskasand their children have beenthrough a lot.
“I can’tcome back,”Pliska, anauto mechanic, saidto Biden.“Yeah,you can; youcan come
back. Hang in there,” was Bi-den’s response.
Families lined up outsidealong Chittenden Street, wait-ing to talk to Biden – to showhimtheirdevastation, theirloss-es. Inside, Biden put his armaround Jimmy Pliska, huggedhis kids, f lashed that brilliantsmile that wasreturnedby near-
ly everyone in his path.As Biden walked into 105
Chittenden St., he patted thehead of a statue of the BlessedVirgin Mary. Gertrude Yachna,79 and her sister Johanna, 75,extendedtheirarmsandhugged
the vice president and invitedhim into their flooded home.
The Yachnas live there with an-other sister, Loretta, 81, and Jo-hanna’s mentally challengedson, James, 44, who does not
speak.“Thisis a colossalcatastrophefor Duryeaand all communitiesnot protected by levees,” stateRep. Carroll said.
Biden said that after the 1972Agnesflood, then-CongressmanDan Flood of Wilkes-Barrecalled himandtold himtogetto
Wilkes-Barre, where$1billionof damage was recorded.
“Thousandsandthousandsof people had that look that I now
see in your eyes,” Biden said. “Iknowa lot of you are frustrated.
This can’t all be done immedi-ately. Where we are standing nowwasariverafewdaysago.Ithas wiped away a lot of homesand a lot ofdreams.”

On Sun., Sept. 25, at 2 p.m.,the Anthracite Heritage Mu-seum will present a samplerproduction of “Under the Lack-awanna Moon” to tell the storyof the Anthracite Region. Buthow did northeastern Penn-sylvania develop as a center foranthracite?
According to Horace Hollis-ter’s “History of the Lackawan-na Valley,” local Native Amer-icans are said to have beenusing anthracite coal as earlyas 1850 near Nazareth, and inthe 1860’s survey reports of the
Susquehanna Company in-cluded mention of anthracitedeposits in the hills beyond
Wilkes-Barre.Obediah Gore came to the
Wyoming Valley in 1769 fromConnecticut and learned aboutthe black stones from localnatives. He is credited as thefirst white man to recognizethe practical use of anthracitecoal to generate heat ,but it
would take more than 30 yearsfor the process to catch on.
On Feb. 8, 1808, a blacksmithliving in Wilkes-Barre conduct-ed an experiment at his homeon Northampton Street that
would prove once and for allthat stone coal could be burnedfor domestic use. He built acrude grate to provide the draftneeded to feed a coal fire inone’s home and, because of hisexperiment, any opposition tothe domestic use the stone coal
was forever halted. Anthracite
was now recognized as a viablefuel alternative to wood.Jesse Fell’s grate is now part
of the collection of the LuzerneCounty Historical Society anda reproduction of it is currentlyon display at the AnthraciteHeritage Museum.
Theatrical production andhistorical preservation sharethe same basic mission: tocelebrate the human spirit byilluminating that which linksus as people. “Under the Lacka-
wanna Moon” is designed totell the story of NortheastPennsylvania’s Anthracite Heri-tage Region through mono-logue, dialogue and music.
The initial presentation willoffer an idea of what the fullproduction is about, offering those in attendance an over-
view of the potential this piecehas as a tourist attraction inthe region.
The project began in 2004 as
collaboration between theLackawanna Historical Societyand the Past Players when agroup of actors presented a
“living theatre” program thatchronicled the lives of thoseinterred in the historic Dun-more Cemetery. Written byaward-winning playwrightNancy Hasty, and featuring original music by her sister,critically acclaimed composerCyndie Hasty, this successfulpresentation received recog-nition throughout the common-
wealth. The donation fee for the
program is $22 for members of the Anthracite Heritage Mu-
seum and Iron Furnaces Asso-ciates and $25 for others. Thestory will be developed andused in the full production as astarting point for visitors tounderstand why a visit to a
working coal mine is integralto understanding the story of this region.
The Northeast Theatre Cen-ter, collaborative partners inthe production, would like togrow the project as a summerpresentation .

Make use of safe flood
recovery tips
As we prepare to recoverfrom the flooding of the Wilkes-Barre area, many points of interest need to be noted in the
water-borne and emergencypower risks that exist to pro-tect the public and especiallythose who suffer from lung disease:
• The greatest health risk inthis emergency may come from
water-borne microorganismsand toxins. Even after the wa-ter recedes, contaminants,bacteria, viruses and mold leftbehind pose a risk to those
with lung disease. Exposure tothese microorganisms andtoxins may increase the risk of developing lung illness. Inaddition, time spent in largegroup housing may increasethe risk of the spread of in-
fectious diseases, such as influ-enza, pneumonia, and tuber-culosis.
• Damp buildings and fur-nishings promote the growth of microorganisms, dust mites,cockroaches and mold, whichcan aggravate asthma and al-lergies and may cause the de-
velopment of asthma, wheeze,cough and hypersensitivitypneumonitis in susceptiblepersons.
• During clean up efforts,
contaminants and microorgan-isms may be inhaled, whichalso add to lung disease com-plications. Clean up efforts
will need to protect the work-ers and occupants from expo-
sure to airborne particles andgases.• The physical stress of
dealing with the flood mayalso put a strain on people
who are already ill or the el-derly, providing an opportuni-ty for respiratory infectionsand other sicknesses to arise.
Without electricity, peoplemay turn to portable gasoline-or diesel-powered generators,
gas stoves, charcoal stoves,grills, portable camping stovesand other devices to cookindoors. Carbon monoxide isproduced whenever any fuelsuch as gas, oil, kerosene,
wood, or charcoal is burned.Exposure to this gas reduc-es the blood’s ability tocarry oxygen and can leadto death. Do not use ovensand gas ranges to heat your
home. Do not burn char-coal or propane inside ahome, cabin, recreational
vehicle or camper, and donot operate gasoline-power-ed or diesel-powered en-gines indoors.
For more information oncleaning up after a flood or
water damage, contact theAmerican Lung AssociationHelp Line at1-800-LUNG-USA.

Those buried in Washburn
deserve better
Charles “Chick” Rader wascited for the conditions of the
Washburn Street Cemetery.
He made some improvements
and the citation was dropped.
The 142nd anniversary of
the Avondale Mine Disaster
was recently held at the ceme-
tery. Granted some of the
grass was cut but there were
sections including the one
where the miners are interred
that is very high. Weeds cover
tombstones and many of these
have fallen or are about to.
There are two huge trees
that are dead. One is splin-
tered and the branches have
fallen on the tombstones be-
neath it. These trees need to
be taken down before they fall
to the acts of nature on a pass-
ing car or worse someone
walking through the cemetery.
Something needs to be doneto correct the conditions of
the cemetery. In its current
state, it is an eyesore to any-
one visiting this hallowed
ground.
Mr. Rader needs to be held
responsible for this cemetery.
If he cannot or will not im-
prove the cemetery, then it
should be sold to someone
who will.
The Avondale miners and
the people buried there should
not have to rest in peace in
such a neglected cemetery.Linda Scott

It’s common for artists tothink outside the box, but forself-taught creator Paul Vendit-ti, he also thinks outside thecanvas.
Born in East Brunswick, NJ,and now living in the ForestCity area, the 23-year-old maynot have a formal educationalbackground in art, but his “un-stoppable curiosity” led him toexperiment with different artforms, culminating in a more“pronounced” focus over thelast three to four years that hasbeen turning heads throughout
Northeast Pennsylvania.
“I try to use an organic style, I
would say. It’s organic or abstract.
It’s always changing; it’s never one
thing…It’s what came naturally.
Over years of trying different
things, I’ve always veered towardsdrawing plant lifeand nature or ge-
ometrics and math. It’s like visual
math to me,” Venditti described.
“It was just developed through
side effects of experiments, like,
‘What happens if I use this type of
paint with this push or this pull?’
Youfudgefactors andyou come out
with something you never even
thought of.”
Venditti has played with clay,
plaster, acrylics, watercolors, aero-sols, airbrushing, and whateverelse he’s found will “get the jobdone” but if he had to choose onlyone medium, “it’d be aerosol, with-out hesitation.”
This may be because his streetart, which can be found on wallsand buildings in cities like Carbon-dale, Forest City, and Scranton,may be among his most striking work. Lately, his focus has been onthe “universally appealing theme”of nature, incorporating parts of buildingsintothe vines andflowershe paints.
“There’s a simplicity in it that’s
easily overlooked. You look at thecities and everybody’s moving around like an army of ants. Wedidn’thave allthatnot toolongago. We were all in the woods,” he ex-plained.
“With plant lifeand nature, mostof the time, people aren’t upset with it after it’s done, even if youdon’t askto do it….It makes peoplesmile on their way home from work.”
While some would call that graf-fiti, Venditti found it “depressing”driving through Forest City and

It has been 20 years
since the Lackawanna Her-
itage Valley was establish-
ed as the first state heri-
tage park in Pennsylvania,
and the group that over-
sees the area partnered
with another area historic
preservation group to host
a premiere screening of a
documentary exploring
that area.
“Legacy: The Story of theLackawanna Heritage Valley,”
was shown for the first timebefore more than 300 attend-ees at the annual LackawannaHistorical Society dinner on
Wednesday night at the Scran-
ton Cultural Center. The 60-minute documentary producedby WVIA includes a widerange of interviews, historicalfootage and more that docu-ments the impact the area’shistory and subsequent preser-
vation efforts have had on itspeople.
“It helps us to present a casefor remaining a state and na-tional heritage area,” Lacka-
wanna Heritage Valley Author-
ity Executive Director NatalieGelb said. “Our legislation as anational heritage area will sun-
set a year from now, and we
hope this film will be a vehicleto convince the public and ourlegislators in Congress that weshould continue to exist and tobe sustained.”
Proceeds from Wednesday’sdinner will be split betweenLHS and LHVA, according toLHS Director Mary Ann Mo-ran-Savakinus, further show-casing the partnership sharedbetween the two organizations.
“Our mission fits nicely intheir entire mission of preserv-ing and promoting local histo-ry,” she said. “It was a reallygood fit to put the organiza-tions together to celebrate thismilestone.”
Moran-Savakinus said she was honored to have the eventserve as a venue for the firstpublic screening of “Legacy.”
“I love that it shows peoplein a very positive way talking
about their community,” shesaid of the film. “For anyone who watches it, it’s very hardnot to get excited and caughtup in celebrating heritage.”
The film was shown simulta-neously on WVIA-TV, andDVD sales will continue tosupport the work LHVA doesin 55 municipalities in north-eastern Pennsylvania.
Copies of the film are $14.95for LHV members and $19.95
for the general public. Formore information, visit

“Blogger”
is a dirty
word for a
lot journal-
ists, but not
for me. I simplycouldn’t
have been onewithout the
other.
I alwayshad a knack for
the English language, but I
never wroteanythingout-
side of schoolworkuntil the
age of16,when mycousin,
Ian, and I started a website
because that was the thing todo atthe time. Itwas a
blogbeforesomeonehad
coined that term.
WhileI didn’t realize it at thetime, it wouldbecomeone of the main reasons I chose thecareer path I did.
Whilethe wholepointof thesite wasto ventour frustrationsabout various topics, it tookona wholenew meaningwhenother people startedreadingit.Itwent froma rantto a dis-cussion.
Lookingbackon some of thatmaterialnow, it was far frompolished, butwhatI was saying was strikinga chordwith some-oneoutthere. There’s some-thing about touching people withwords that stillgives meathrill to thisday.
After takinga fewcreative writingcoursesandhoning mycraft, I decided togoto collegeforEnglishinsteadof theater.Blogging took a backseat for a while, butby thesummerof 2008,we hadrevampedouroriginal site to havemoreofastrict focus on politicsand phil-osophical matters.
With themainstreammediaplaying a largepart in that dis-cussion, there wasno shortage
of criticism onmyendfor theirqualityof coverage,so maybeit’s a bitironic that I was hired
as themainstaff writerfor thisnewspaper in early 2010.
Thiswas a life-changing eventfor mebecause this wasthe first time that I wouldbepaidona regular, full-time basistowrite, and it changedmyperspectiveonbloggingand journalismforever.
Both sides seemed to lookdownoneachother– manybloggers feltjournalistswere allcorporate shills, andreporters
lookeddownonbloggingas alesserformof writing bypeople withno formal training.
I made itmygoaltobe thechangeI wantedto see inthemedia, leavingmypersonal biasat thedoor in favor ofbalanced,neutral journalism. That’s aneasy thingto deliver whenyoureditorsarelookingforthesamething.
To separate thetwofurther, Inever blog aboutthe peopleI
report on. I’vealways seen thetwo as simplytwo types of writing, and there is still a need
forboth.I think bloggingis used most
effectively in providing morehonest andbiting commentaryonnews items. It serves well asan aggregate forparticulartopics or issuesthatone personmay bepassionate about, anditalso buildsa senseof communi-ty aroundparticular topics.
Bloggingcan also beused tomake bad informationsoundgood, and manypeopleblog
abouttopics that theyhaveverylittle background onor author-ityin. This canmislead peopleandfurther complicatetheoverall discussion.
It’s beenalmost12 years nowsince I startedmyfirstblog andnow I runa few more, because,again, that’s the thingto dothesedays. I guessthat’s whyBillBlack, theco-organizerof the annual Pages & PlacesBookFestival, asked me to moderate
a roundtablediscussion onbloggingin Northeast Penn-sylvania on Thursdayat The
Vintage Theaterin downtownScranton.
Myguestswere TomBorth- wick, local teacher, formercandidate forScranton SchoolBoard, andauthor of www.NE-PArtisan.com, a leading localpoliticalwebsite; JustinVacula,co-organizer fortheNEPAFreethoughtSociety, Exam-iner.com contributor, and theblogger behindwww.JustinVac-ula.com; andHaroldJenkins,an
autobiographical blogger(http://anothermonkey.blog-spot.com) aswell asa creatorof NEPABlogs(http://nepa-blogs.blogspot.com), a clear-inghouse providing links toblogs andother sites aboutNEPA or byNEPA natives.
Asone of thepanelists joking-lypointedout, there was notrue tableto sitaround, buttherewas a lot of excellentdiscussionabout howblogging
haschangedthewaypeoplediscover anddiscuss informa-tion worldwide.
Whileeachwereable to offertheir ownunique perspective on why they got into blogging,theone thing weallshared was apassion forour convictions.
Onepersonquestionedwhatmadeuseach anauthority onanything, or whyanyone shouldreadwhat wehaveto sayoverany other guy witha blogandsome free time out there.
In a nutshell, myanswerwasthis – becausewe lovewhat we
do, and asa result, westrive todo it right. WhetherI’mcitingsources or
personal experience,mywriting comes from themost honestpart of myself,evenwhen I’mnotalwaysperfectwhen I putdown the penor leavethekey-board.
Ultimately, it’s up to theread-er todecidewhetherI’m rightorwrong,butI sleep well know-ing thatI saidwhat I wantedto
say.I just happen to havemore
than one outlet to doso.

“If it’s under construction, it’stemporary anyway,” he mused.
“I choose to paint outdoorsbecause I want to settle thescore with the advertising com-panies…You have these compa-nies taking up space on walls,and I figured that it’s a fair fightto put something natural back
on the wall.” The debate over whether or
notthis is artis onethat Vendittienjoys having.
“There’s really no wrong wayto use something. I think that’sthebeautyof art.I’venever useda canvas traditionally. Most of
my stuff doesn’t stay on thecan- vas. If it’s going to hang some- where, half of it is offthe canvasand onto the wall. A lot of my work is not content, it’s con-text,” he emphasized.
Avoiding the white walls and
neat frames of typical galleries,Venditti held his first solo art in-stallation in an abandoned sew-ing factory he renovated in For-est City during the town’s an-nual “Old Home Week” festival.Utilizing wood fragments andfound items to create pieces, healsoscrapped2,400of pounds of dumpedsteeland usedthemon-eyto buypaint. The“art-themedhauntedhouse”piquedthe curi-osity of many of the local youth

“I don’t think you really needportfolios and the classic thingspeople think they need for suc-cess. You just need some goodideas and an internet connec-

“Straw Dogs” is a
meditation on
masculinity
andsocietalmores in theguise
of an explosive thriller. While
remaking Sam Peckinpah’s
controversial 1971 classic,
writer-director Rod Lurie has
kept the plot virtually intact.
What makes the two films feelradically different is tone. JamesMarsden and Kate Bosworth seemoddsubstitutes forDustinHoffmanandSusan George,but theircasting proves a stroke of genius — so farremoved from the original starsthatthe inevitablecomparisons aremoot. Marsden and Bosworth de-liver career-high performances.
The storyremains simple: Holly-
wood screenwriter David Sumner
and his actress wife, Amy, relocatefrom the West Coast to her smallhometownin Mississippi to restoreandthen sell her family home. Thelocals still remember Amy fondly,especially her ex-boyfriend Charlie(Alexander Skarsgard), a formerhigh-school football star whosegreatest triumphs are behind him.Charlie is obviously still in love
with Amy, buthe’s respectful of hermarriage and doesn’t overstep hisboundaries — at least for a while.
The trouble starts when theSumners hire Charlie and his crewto fix their roof.
The workers’ constant presenceandrude behaviorgradually takes atoll on the marriage. Hairlinecracks become fissures. David sug-gestsAmy stop dressingso provoc-atively (“Maybe you should wear abra”). She responds with anger,claiming she dresses for him. Themen sense David’s emasculation
and grow bolder in their transgres-
sions. Charlie admires Amy fromafar, hammer in hand. An aura of menace develops.
Lurie’s “Straw Dogs” argues that we are products of our environ-ment and learn to survive by em-bracing the attitudes around us,even when they contradict our in-stincts.
Whena bored David walks outona church sermon, he’s not aware of the offense against the locals. Butlike Amy, he’ll eventually learn by
force.Much like Peckinpah’s film, the
new “Straw Dogs” climaxes withextreme violence. There is a greattragedy to the bloodbath but great
victory, too.Youcan pushpeople sofarbefore they break, or fight back.
The conflagration thatends “StrawDogs” is more triumphant thanlamentable: Sometimes, you havetobe taken tothe edgeof the abyssto find out who you really are.

theCarbondaleArt Walkand painted a
sunfloweron theside of Martini Grill,414 Spruce St., in Scranton during First Friday.
Like much of his work, the “properchannels”were thrown out the prover-bial window and his proposal to theownersof Martini Grillwas spur ofthemoment. By the next morning, theyhad given him the go ahead, whichgave patrons and passers-by a uniqueexperience as they watched him workthroughout the night.
“Ithoughtit wouldbe a greatidea. Alot of people have come in and askedabout it. They come by and peek inandsay, ‘Hey, whodid that? It’s so life-like! I have this garage by my houseand I’d really love to put something like that on my house.’ That’s great,”Kristen Baigis, housemanager of Mar-tini Grill, added.
Alex Molfetas, owner of 119 PennAve. just down the street, stumbledacross the artist in the act when hesmelled the fresh spray-paint, ap-
proachingVenditti withthe promiseof an evenmore“giantcanvas” – theexte-rior wall atthe rear ofhis buildingthatsits in the 200 block of Center Street.
The mural, in progress for the lastseveral weeks and delayed by rainfrom Hurricane Irene and TropicalStorm Lee, is a collaborative designthat features the logo for Molfetas’productioncompany,119Productions,designed by Bryan Filarsky. An elec-tric train originally designed by 119’sHeadDesigner Kurt Effertzplays offof
the city’s history as geometric shapesscatter around it.
The focus, Molfetas feels, isn’t nec-essarily to attract traffic inside 119Penn Ave., which houses The Vintage
Theater, asmuch asit is to “getpeopleinto thealleyways,”whereevenhe hasdiscovered unique piecesof public art.
“There are a lot of different alley- ways in town that people need to lookinto,” he said. “There’s some randompieces of art around town, but what
we’re doing is just going big and bold. We’re changing the game.”Neighbors have been wowed by the

“Drive” is pitched as an ac-tion film, a straight-up sagaabout a man who crashes carsas a movie stunt driver by dayand helps crash businesses as agetaway driver by night. In amore mainstream universe, thiscould be the set-up for a JasonStatham headbanger.
But that’s not what acclaimedDanish indie di-rector Nicolas
Winding Refnhas in mind. Aschilly as a Co-penhagen win-t er a nd of te ntensely quiet be-fore exploding in brutal vio-lence, “Drive”
sometimes feellike a foreigner’sacademic takeon a Hollywoodgenre piece.Still, it’s a thrill-ing ride.
Ryan Gosling is the namelessdriver, the go-to guy if a car hast o be driven hard and f ast.
When he’s not rolling cars orknocking over warehouses, he
wants to be an auto racer, an
ambition his mechanic (BryanCranston) helps him with by in-troducing him to those whocould bankroll him, mobstersplayed by Albert Brooks andRon Perlman.
On the other hand, he’s fall-ing for young mom Irene (Ca-rey Mulligan), literally the girlnext door, whose husband,Standard (the underrated OscarIsaac), has just come home
from prison. When the family isthreatened because Standardstill owes some gangsters mon-ey, Standard agrees to one last
job to pay off his debt — andthe driver agrees to help him.
The driver’s seemingly sepa-rate worlds collide, and nothing goes as planned.
The action scenes are grip-ping and Refn’s painterly way
with a camera adds visual al-lure.
“Drive” may not take the ex-pected route to its destination,but it arrives in style.

It’s exhausting, but that’s sort of the idea.
“I Don’t Know How She Does It” is an old-
fashioned spin on the manic pace of mother-
hood for today’s working woman, for whom “jug-
gling” has become not just the normbut positive-
ly blasé.
The novelty here is thatit’s that “Sex and the City”conspicuous consumer Sa-rah Jessica Parker “discov-ering” what Allison Pear-son’s novel didn’t exactlydiscover, either: Parentsare perpetually over-
worked and overcommit-ted.
Parker, narrating in voi-ceover as in “Sex and theCity,” is Kate, the frazzled
investment banker trying tokeep her job but alsoherkindergartener and 2-year-old happy and her working husband, Richard (Greg Kinnear), content.
She travels. A lot.Kate isclosingin ona big
deal and has to win over ahandsome upper-levelmanager (Pierce Brosnan).
That’s the straw that maybreak this mother camel’sback.
She lies awake working on “The List” — birthday-party plans, bake-sale obli-gations, home-repair ar-rangements.
“Number 3, Call Ri-chard’s mother. Number 4,
Wax something. ANY-thing.”
The cute linesdon’thavemuch snap, so the script
and director DouglasMcGrath lean on testimo-nials — the friends, col-leagues and fellow moms
who marvel, either genu-inely or sarcastically to thecamera — “I don’t knowhow she does it.”
Christina Hendricks isthe single-mom pal, SethMeyers is a back-stabber atthe office, Olivia Munn isthe younger assistant who
looks at Kate and vows“never getting married,never having kids.”
Her assessment of Kate?“You’re tiredand always in-sufficiently groomed.”
Jane Curtin shows up asthe judgmental mother-in-law who can deliver with-ering condemnations witha smile, and Busy Philippsmakes a funny impressionas a “mini-Martha Stew-art.”
The story’s thesis hasresonance. We’re all mis-sing out on importantthings in our oversched-uled lives.
But the idea that working moms feel the strain of achieving balancemore than
working dads is nothing new. And that’s true of mosteverything in the movie.

When the week-end of worry wasover – and thestart of the recov-ery period was just beginning formany – the
Wyoming Area and Columbia-Montour Vo-Tech teams simply were not ready to play a footballgame.
No further explanation was
needed and none ever should beexpected for the decision to calloff games that had already beenpostponed for days.
This time around, we were for-tunate in Lackawanna County.
When the second Friday night of the high school season rolled
around, Mid Valley traveled toLakeland and Carbondale went toValley View to play games on what was a beautiful night for football.
In surrounding counties, it wasdifficult to appreciate the clear skyand comfortable temperature be-cause tens of thousands were stilldealing with the devastation thattwo punishing storm systems hadleft behind.
Flooding and precautionary
evacuations disrupted lives inmost of the school districts serv-ing as opponents for LackawannaFootball Conference teams in aschedule that emphasizes non-league play in the early weeks.
District 2 teams measure them-selves throughout much of the
first three weeks in LFC vs. Wyoming Valley Conferencegames.
Ultimately, when 10 weeks of regular-season play are over, many will measure success on a playoff points system that includes mul-tiple factors – wins, enrollmentsize of opponents beaten and thenumber of wins by those beatenopponents.
When Wyoming Area was un-
able to get together with WestScranton and District 4 memberColumbia-Montour Vo-Tech couldnot get to Nanticoke, three Dis-trict 2 teams were left with nine-game schedules instead of 10.

Playoff spots now will be determined
by an average rating of nine or 10games instead of all teams playing thesame amount.
The three schools who had post-poned games are not the only onesimpacted.
The potential number of points Wyoming Area, West Scranton andNanticoke can earn for opponents whobeat them has changed because of oneless game. In short, the postponementshave the potential to have some affecton multiple teams.
If, and when, that happens, none of us should say another word about it.
Speculation about what would havehappened if those two games wereplayed and analysis about whichschools received an advantage or disad-
vantage as a result would be disre-spectful to those with far bigger prob-lems to face.
We can all be certain that the young men at Wyoming Area and Columbia-Montour Vo-Tech would much rather
have been playing football last week-end than taking a break that potential-ly altered someone else’s fate on thefield.
Even if any inequity materializesfrom the unbalanced schedules, nocomplaints are acceptable here.
For years, most of the teams thathave missed playoff spots because of point system disadvantages – real and
imagined – were not the teams worthyof championships. Most of those whocannot make the top four in playoff points were not about to end up as theone top team when the district playoffs
were over. Those teams, coaches and fans who
may be tempted to worry about whathas changed in the playoff point sys-tem should concentrate on one thing
instead.Just win. Those who win enough games will
be well clear of close calls in rating systems.
Northeastern Pennsylvania’s flood victims only wish life seemed that fair.

f the first meet of the sea-
son is any indication, se-nior Kathleen Casey will
be a great addition to the
West Chester women’s cross
country team this fall.
Casey (Holy Cross) is a
senior who has transferred in
from St. Joseph’s where she
was a dependable member of
the Hawks’ track and crosscountry team.
Casey opened her West
Chester career by finishing
third in the Lehigh Invitation-
al in Bethlehem. Her 6k time
of 22:35.4 was behind winner
and teammate Kristina Kout-
souros and a Lehigh runner.
“Kathleen has been a great addi-tion to our team and will certainlyhelp us out at the PSAC Cham-pionships in October,” coach An-drew Huber said. “She had someproblems the first few weeks ad-
justing to some different training methods, things she had neverexperienced before. But she fought
through it and seems to have comeout on the other side ready to runfast.”
Casey’s time at Lehigh was fas-ter than she ran on the samecourse last season with St. Jo-seph’s.
“Kathleen and Kristina havereally been working well togetherat practices, which should onlyhelp both of them when we get tothe conference championship.”
Huber said.
PERRY SEEINGACTION
Sophomore Michael Perry (Dun-more) is a valuable member of theBryant football team. The 5-foot-8,214-pounder spent his freshmanseason limited to special teams.
“Michael had a very good fresh-man year with our special teams,”head coach Marty Fine said. “He’s
very quick and tough to block.” This season, Perry is still a key
member of the special teams –
especially as a kickoff returner –and is also seeing action behind
junior standout Jordan Brown atrunning back. In the first twogames, he carried the ball fivetimes for 15 yards. He also return-ed six kickoffs for129 yards – a21.5 average. And, he picked up acouple of tackles on kickoffs.
“We expect big things fromMichael again this year on specialteams and at tailback,” Fine said.
“He’s second on our depth chart atrunning back behind an all-confer-ence runner (Jordan), but he willcertainly play a key role in oursuccess this season.”
DEVENEYLEADSTHEWAY
Junior Kelsey Deveney (Lacka- wanna Trail) is starting on defensefor the Gwynedd-Mercy field hock-ey team and picked up three as-sists in the first four games.
Scoring is nothing new fromDeveney. She had seven goals and
seven assists for 21 points last yearand three goals and four assists for10 points as a freshman.
“Kelsey came into this seasonready to lead and to take the teamto great success,” coach LauraLane said. “She is one of our cap-tains and she’s both a vocal leaderand a leader by example.”

Morethan 400residents,includingcommunityleadersand membersof theUniversi-
tyof ScrantonROTCprogram,gatheredat McDadeParklastSunday tohonorthe
memory of those killed10 years ago on Sept. 11,2001.
Sunday’s ceremonyalso servedas an unveiling for the county’snew Sept. 11 memorial featuring twin black granite towers remi-niscent of the World Trade Cen-ter towers that collapsed as a re-sult of the terrorist attacks on
New York City. The granitetowersinclude em-
blems representing firefighters,emergency medical techniciansand police officers and are sur-rounded by blocks of Pennsylva-nia bluestone donated by BuckRidge Bluestoneof Montrose.
The event included patrioticandsombersongssuchas“Amaz-ing Grace” and “America theBeautiful” performed by a com-
bined choir featuringmembersof the Scranton Chapter of UNICO,Ss. Anthony and Rocco Parish,Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Parish,and the HolyFamily Parish.
“On Sept. 11, we learned thatactions speak louder than words,” Lackawanna CountyCommissioner Corey O’Briensaid. “Our country was brutallyattacked by terrorists who be-lieved that our resolve was only
skin deep. They believed thattheir strike would cause ourcountryto retreat, losefocus,andcrumble.Theythought wewouldrunawayfromthe burningWorld Trade Center buildings. Theynever guessed thatwe would run
toward them.”Retired New York Police De-
tective Rob O’Donnell, a currentresident of Greenfield Township, worked at the Ground Zero sitefor14 months.
“We have tragedythat wemustnever forget, and yet we havehope,” O’Donnell said, gesturing towards a piece of Ground Zeroheldby10-year-oldDunmoreresi-dent Jenna Furey and an Ameri-
can flag flown over the site heldbyMikeLaPollaandhisson,Jack.“It’s a shame that fear brought
us together after that. It doesn’thaveto bethatway,”he said.“Weshouldall bereadywhenweleavehere to call someone we haven’tspoken to and tell them we lovethem. When you see a stranger,sayhiorsmile.Thatwasthegreatpartof 9/11.”
Retired New York Fire Depart-
ment member Tom Gates, a cur-rent resident of Scranton, saidheknew“40or50”ofthefirefighterskilled that day including Capt.Vincent Brunton. Brunton’s fam-ily members were natives of Avo-ca, accordingto Gates.
“Scranton reminds me of Brooklyn,”he said.“I justwantedto take Vinnyto theBanshee andtake him around this beautifulcity - the library on Vine Street,the courthouse, municipal build-ings, the Radisson. You’ve got abeautiful cityhere, andI wishVin-nywas herewithme.”
The eventincludeda memorialbellceremony fromthe ScrantonFire Department and several mo-
mentsof silenceto mark times of the attacks and collapse of the Twin Towers, including one mo-ment offered by Robert DeFazio,uncleof thelateLaura LeeDeFa-zio Morabito. DeFazio Morabito,a Clarks Summit native, was apassenger aboard American Air-lines Flight 11 that was killed inthe attacks. She is memorializedin a metal plaque on the back of one of the monument’s towers.

the Griffins from her center back
position.“Kelsey’s growth as a player hasbeen spectacular to watch thepast two seasons,” Lane said.“She’s a key piece to our attacking penalty corner unit. She has astrong shot, a great eye for thegoal and her receiving skills makeher a great pass option.”
GOOD STARTFOR MARTIN
Brittany Martin kicked off hercareer with the Millersville wom-en’s cross country team with a big effort.
Martin (Abington Heights) is atransfer from Seton Hill, and inthe season-opening Alumni Openin Millersville she finished secondin the 5k women’s race with atime of 20:01. An alumni runnerfrom Franklin & Marshall was theonly runner to beat her.
“She came in to Millersville ingreat shape which showed up very
well at the first meet,” coach AndyYoung said. “Her effort was asurprise to many of us.”
Young feels that Martin will beone of the team’s top five scorersduring the cross country seasonand will very likely be his toprunner especially with All-Amer-ican Elicia Anderson being side-lined with an injury.
“I expect with Brittany’s talentshe will continue to improve and
has a very bright future, especiallyduring the track season,” Young said.
ADDED ROLEFOR DITCHEY
Sophomore Ashley Ditchey(Lackawanna Trail) started for theArcadia field hockey team lastseason and is back in the starting lineup this season. But coach ErinLivingston has another role forthe 5-foot-4 midfielder.
“This year we are looking forAshley to have a huge leadershiprole with our defense,” the coachsaid. “She is our most experi-enced defender and I look for herto take control out there.”
The Knights are a young team with just two seniors on the 20player roster.
“Ashley works hard every dayand is a role model for our fresh-man to look up to,” Livingstonsaid. “She is a good representativeof the type of players I’m trying torecruit.”
