BLOOMING GROVE — Authorities say a heavily armed survivalist
with a vendetta against law enforcement is the suspect in an
ambush that killed one Pennsylvania State Police trooper and
wounded another in a heavily
forested region of northeastern
Pennsylvania.
State police have warned the
public that Eric Frein, 31, of
Canadensis, is dangerous, saying
he’s talked about committing
mass murder. One local school

HARRISBURG — A bill that would allow
Pennsylvania teachers and other school
employees to carry guns at work drew a
mixed reaction Tuesday from lawmakers.
Republican Sen. Don White, R-Indiana,
the prime sponsor, said at a Senate Education Committee hearing that the bill would
give school boards more options for protecting students, especially those in rural
areas that rely on often-distant state troopers for police protection.
Mark Zilinskas, an Indiana Area High
School math teacher who was the leadoff
witness for the bill, said the
legislation would enable
school employees who are
licensed and trained to use
guns to prevent a mass
shooting, rather than react
to it.
“They refer to the police
as the first responders and
we are the first responders.
I am the first responder,”
MARK
he said, “and I believe that
I can make a difference
ZILINSKAS
and other people like me
can make a difference if we have the proper
tools and training.”
Proponents of the bill cited the 2012 massacre of 26 people at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn., and an
April knife attack at Franklin Regional High
School in Murrysville that injured 21 people as examples of incidents that armed
school employees might have stopped.
But Sen. Anthony Williams said it is a bad
idea to place such a grave responsibility on
people whose principal interest is educating children. The Philadelphia Democrat
objected to what he called “the rush to arm

INDIANA BOROUGH
Liquor license
denial affirmed
By RANDY WELLS
[email protected]
Indiana Borough council Tuesday adopted
a resolution formally denying a request
made in August to transfer a liquor license
into the borough for a proposed new restaurant.
Cory Reilly sought council’s approval for
the license transfer from Alverda for what he
said would be a family-style restaurant specializing in Irish cuisine in the 600 block of
Philadelphia Street.
Because Indiana already has 23 liquor licenses, substantially more than one license
per 3,000 inhabitants, the Pennsylvania
Liquor Control Board requires that an applicant for a transfer must get approval from
the receiving municipality before the PLCB
grants final approval for the transfer.
At a public hearing in August, several
council members raised concerns that another establishment in the borough with a
liquor license could adversely affect the welContinued on Page 12

A diverse group of people
from Indiana County met with
local planners Tuesday night to
help plan the future.
Residents, landlords, students, elected officials and
business owners put their
heads together in the first
meeting of the Indiana Community University District at
the Kovalchick Convention and
Athletic Complex.
The project is a cooperative
effort of Indiana Borough,
White Township, Indiana University of Pennsylvania and Indiana County and focuses on
the areas immediately around
the IUP campus and how they
transition into one another.
This first meeting was about
presenting a picture of Indiana
as it is, then allowing participants to put their ideas for the
future on paper.

years and 22 years in prison
for a crash that killed six people, including her daughter
and nephew.
The Bradford Era reported
that a McKean County judge

38, on Tuesday.
She had pleaded guilty last
week to six counts of vehicular homicide.
Police say she was under
the influence of prescription
medicine when the crash occurred in Kane in August
2013.
Authorities say Douglas’
SUV crossed the centerline
and hit an approaching car.
Four people in the other vehicle died.

making: that faulty well construction is the root cause of
most problems, not fracking
chemicals migrating up
through rocks.
A separate study published
this week by different researchers examined drilling
sites in Pennsylvania and
Texas using other methods. It
found that faulty well construction caused pollution,
but not fracking itself.
Avner Vengosh, a Duke
University scientist involved
with that study, just published in The Proceedings of
the National Academy of Sciences, said in an email that it
appears the Energy Department report on the Pennsylvania site is consistent with
their findings.
The leading industry group
in Pennsylvania said the Energy Department study reaffirms that hydraulic fracturing “is a safe and well-regulated technology.” Marcellus
Shale Coalition President
Dave Spigelmyer said in an
email that the study reflects
“the industry’s long and clear
record of continuously working to enhance regulations.”
724-349-2500
PITTSBURGH — The final
report from a landmark federal study on hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, found no
evidence that chemicals or
brine water from the gas
drilling process moved upward to contaminate drinking water at a site in western
Pennsylvania.
The Department of Energy
report, released Monday, was
the first time an energy company allowed independent
monitoring of a drilling site
during the fracking process
and for 18 months afterward.
After those months of monitoring, researchers found
that the chemical-laced fluids used to free gas stayed
about 5,000 feet below drinking water supplies.
Scientists used tracer fluids, seismic monitoring and
other tests to look for problems, and created the most
detailed public report to date
about how fracking affects
adjacent rock structures.
The fracking process uses
millions of gallons of high-
pressure water mixed with
sand and chemicals to break
apart rocks rich in oil and
gas. That has led to a national
boom in production, but also
to concerns about possible
groundwater contamination.
But the Energy Department report is far from the
last word on the subject. The
department monitored six
wells at one site, but oil or gas
drilling at other locations
around the nation could
show different results because of variations in geology
or drilling practices. Environmentalists and regulators
have also documented cases
in which surface spills of
chemicals or wastewater
damaged drinking water
supplies.
“There are a whole wealth
of harms associated with
shale gas development” separate from fracking, said
Maya K. van Rossum, of the
Delaware Riverkeeper group.
She mentioned methane gas
leaks, wasteful use of fresh
water and air pollution, and
said the Energy Department
study confirms a point that
the Riverkeeper has been

Board discusses
security systems
By SEAN YODER
[email protected]
PURCHASE LINE — The
Purchase Line Area School
District board of directors
discussed the new security
systems at each of the main
entrances at Monday
night’s regular meeting.
For visitors, the School
Guardian system will scan
their state-issued identification and print out a temporary pass with a photo.
After 12 hours, a red circle
with a slash through it will
appear on the pass to prevent reuse.
The system will try to
match the photo on a visitors’ identification with the
one in the official database.
It will also search special
databases such as the ones
for sexual offenders.
Superintendent Joseph
Bradley said the system
was running well and, so
far, the community and
families have been very receptive. He said if someone
does not have a state ID, an
administrator or teacher
will go outside to talk to the
person and try to make reasonable arrangements.
The system is capable of
tracking students’ movements throughout the
buildings, but Bradley said
the district is currently satisfied with its ability to
track students through current attendance methods.
In other business, the district may soon have an
agreement with its support

HARRISBURG (AP) —
Pennsylvania
Treasurer
Robert McCord said Tuesday he authorized a $700
million loan to the state
government’s main bank
account after the balance
dropped below zero for the
first time in at least 14
years.
The transfer, made Monday, borrows from other
state funds at a low interest
rate of 0.25 percent, and
McCord predicted the state
would need to borrow
more soon to pay the bills.
The
announcement,
coming 2½ months after
Gov. Tom Corbett signed a
Republican-penned budget package, was immediately swept up into campaign-season politics.
Democrats sought to
paint the loan as an indictment of the Republican
governor’s handling of the
state’s fiscal affairs. Republicans accused Democrats
of trying to twist a routine
method of covering a shortterm cash shortage into a
political weapon against
Corbett, who is seeking reelection.
The Corbett campaign
and Democratic challenger
Tom Wolf’s campaign each
released a statement accusing the other of reckless fiscal behavior — Corbett as
governor, Wolf as revenue
secretary under former
Gov. Ed Rendell.
At a Capitol news conference, McCord and Auditor
General
Eugene
DePasquale, both Democrats,
tied the need for the loan to
a persistent structural

filed a citation against Smoody in

her with scattering rubbish.

Troopers cited DeSantis with public
drunkenness in Blairsville District
Court; online records show DeSantis
pleaded guilty and was assessed $278
in fins and court costs.
State police reported that Tyler Custor, of Seward, left his car along the
side of Route 56 near Laurel Ridge

have been without a contract since June. The current terms of the contract
will be voted on by support
staff and sent back to the
school board for a final approval, probably at a special meeting on Sept. 22.
Teachers have been without a contract for over a
year and the administration’s contract will be up
next year.
The board approved the
hiring of Thomas Aurandt
as assistant high school
principal and federal programs coordinator. Aurandt comes from Central
Cambria School District,
where he was a teacher and

practicing attorney.
The board also approved
the hiring of Kenneth

Quebec keeping a watchful eye on Scotland’s vote
By BENJAMIN SHINGLER
Associated Press
MONTREAL — Quebec’s
separatists are watching
closely this week to see if the
Scottish
independence
movement has learned from
their failed attempts to break
away from Canada. And it
could be rejuvenated if Scotland breaks away from the
United Kingdom.
The Scottish National
Party, which is leading the
campaign for Scotland to
vote yes in Thursday’s vote
on independence, has been
advised over the years by
separatists in Quebec, a
French-speaking province
where two referendums on
independence failed, though
the last “Non” was narrow.
Polls suggest the outcome in
Scotland will be close.
A vote by Scotland to separate from Great Britain could
in turn bolster the Parti Quebecois, which has never let
its dream of independence
die, despite a steep drop in
support. Jean-Francois Lisee,
a prominent party member,
said the two parties have
held an open dialogue for
years and the PQ now has a
large delegation in Scotland
studying the separatist campaign there.
Members of the Scottish
National Party were on hand
for Quebec’s last referendum
in 1995, which almost resulted in independence: the Yes
side lost by a count of 50.6
percent to 49.4 percent.
The
pro-independence
counterparts have kept in
contact ever since, and a
group of SNP delegates traveled to Quebec as recently as
2011. The Scottish have inquired on how Quebec separatists organized their campaign and planned to acquire international recognition if they won, said Daniel
Turp, a senior member of
Quebec’s pro-independence
forces in 1995.
By the time SNP leader Alex
Salmond called Scotland’s
referendum in 2013, “there
was nothing we could have
told them that they didn’t
know already,” Lisee said.
Since
then,
though,
Salmond has tried to distance himself from the PQ

voters more inclined to back independence and their elders

leadership. He made a point
of not appearing publicly
with Pauline Marois, Quebec’s premier at the time,
during her visit to Scotland
in 2013. The PQ has struggled
to drum up interest in another referendum and suffered
its worst electoral defeat in
decades last spring.
A guide to Scotland
By PAUL KELBIE
Associated Press
GLASGOW, Scotland —
The people of Scotland will
decide on Thursday whether
to end a partnership with the
rest of the United Kingdom
that has lasted more than 300
years. Here is a guide to Scotland as the historic vote
nears.
ABOUT SCOTLAND
Scotland, with little more
than 5 million people, is one
of the oldest countries in the
world, having been united as
a single nation by King Kenneth MacAlpin in the year
843.
It remained an independent state for more than 800
years until the formation of
Great Britain in 1707.
When England found itself
at war with France in the
early 18th century, fears that
Scotland would side with the
enemy prompted London to
block trade and deprive
Scots of property they owned
south of the border unless
they agreed to create a single
country. After much debate
— and widespread Scottish
hostility — both the Scottish
and English parliaments
were dissolved on May 1,
1707, and replaced with a
new British one.
Scotland has its own legal
system, and the national
Church of Scotland was
guaranteed under the Act of
Union.
However, all monetary and
finance matters are controlled by the government in
London and the Bank of England, which was founded by
Scotsman William Paterson
in 1694.
PARLIAMENT
A desire for more autonomy in Scotland led to Westminster holding a referendum in 1997 for the establishment of a devolved Scottish Parliament in Edinburgh.
The idea was backed by
74.3 percent of the voters and
in 1999 the parliament was
opened for business by veteran politician Winnie Ewing,
who chaired the first meeting, with the words: “The
Scottish Parliament adjourned on the 25th day of
March in the year 1707 is
hereby reconvened.”
Members of the Scottish
Parliament can legislate on
education, health spending,
housing, tourism, transport
and a few other areas; they
have no control over immigration, defense, foreign policy, employment, trade, energy or the main levers of finance.
Most of the money used by
the Scottish Parliament to finance public services comes
from a grant allocated by the
United Kingdom government.
ECONOMY
The U.K. produces more
than 75 percent of the European Union’s offshore oil
production, of which 90 per-
cent is extracted from Scottish waters, according to the
European
Commission’s
Joint Research Centre. Based
on 2012 figures, the Scottish
government says this Scottish oil contributes around
24.4 billion pounds ($39.5
billion) to the U.K. economy.
In addition to oil, the Scottish government calculates
the country could produce
25 percent of the EU’s offshore wind and tidal energy
and 10 percent of the EU’s
wave energy.
Scottish exports are worth
around 100 billion pounds a
year to the British Treasury,
including more than 11 billion pounds from financial
services, along with almost 9
billion pounds from food
and drink, including whisky.
The two regions are different — Scotland speaks the
same language as the rest of
Britain, while Quebec has always been apart from the
rest of Canada by keeping
French as its first tongue.
But the Scottish Yes side
has plenty in common with
the Quebec campaign of

bec was 43 words, while the
1980 question was 106.
Lecours said the clarity in
Scotland was more likely the
intent of the British government, which believed a
straightforward
question
would favor the No side.
But with opinion polls
showing a late surge for independence, that strategy
could backfire.
Alexandre Cloutier, a PQ
member who heads the
group that visited Scotland,
said he’s amazed by the SNP’s
success over the past year.
“They have been able to
bring the movement to the
broader population,” Cloutier said from Edinburgh,
where he has gathered with
SNP officials several times
since 2008.
Cloutier said the PQ
warned the SNP to expect a
No campaign “based on fear”
of economic disaster, like the
one led by the 1995 No camp
in Canada.
Lisee said he hopes a victory for Scottish independence
could eventually revive interest in another referendum in
Quebec.

INFLUENCE
Scotland’s influence has
been out of proportion to its
size.
The Declaration of Arbroath, asserting Scottish independence in 1320, influenced the American Declaration of Independence. A rare
copy of the Scottish manuscript was given to the U.S.
National Archives by the
Scottish government in 2011
in appreciation of the U.S.
Senate passing a resolution
designating every April 6 as
Tartan Day in the United
States.
nearly 20 years ago, said
Andre Lecours, a political
science professor at the University of Ottawa.
“There are lots of similarities, first in that the Yes campaign has been positive, with
the same message, that ‘we’re
good enough and big
enough, and we can do it,’”
said Lecours. “And a bit like
the PQ, the Yes Scotland
campaign has energized
Scottish society and reached
people that typically aren’t
involved in the political
process.”
On the other hand, he said
the Scots have avoided an
often-cited pitfall of the Quebec separatist movement —
a lack of clarity about what
exactly would happen in the
event of a referendum victory. Lecours attributes that to
a detailed plan issued by
Salmond last year.
The referendum question
itself — ‘Should Scotland be
an independent country?’ —
is far more clear than the
ones put forward in Quebec
during the 1980 and 1995
votes.

Hillary’s ‘steak’ is not well done
rior to his annual steak
fry, retiring Sen. Tom
Harkin (D-Iowa) said
this about Hillary Clinton to
Dan Balz of The Washington
Post: “She is much more
progressive in her thoughts
and her inclination than
most people may think.”
Liberals have embraced
the word “progressive” because it sounds more forward-looking than “liberal,”
which has a track record
voters periodically reject
when the ideology doesn’t
live up to its declared goals
(think Hubert Humphrey,
George McGovern, Michael

There is much we know
about Hillary Clinton by
whatever label she chooses
to wear or hide behind. She
has been in the national
spotlight for more than two
decades and most people
have already decided what
they think of her.
A Wall Street Journal/NBC
News Poll indicates the substantial obstacles Mrs. Clinton must overcome should

An indication of how difficult it will be to sell Mrs.
Clinton as a competent
president comes from a column by Nicholas Kristof of
The New York Times, who
tries his best to create a positive record for her: “Clinton
achieved a great deal and
left a hefty legacy — just not
the traditional kind. ... For
starters, Clinton recognized
that our future will be more
about Asia than Europe.”
This is hardly breaking
news.
Kristof added: “More fundamentally, Clinton vastly
expanded the diplomatic
agenda. Diplomats historically focused on ‘hard’ issues, like trade or blowing
up stuff, and so it may seem
weird and ‘soft’ to fret about
women’s rights or economic
development.”
At a time when our enemies are not just “blowing
up stuff,” but beheading
journalists and aid workers,
“hard issues” are increasingly important.
Opponents may wish to
ask the same question Mrs.
Clinton asked of Barack
Obama in 2008. Who do you
want to answer that “3 a.m.
phone call”?
Should a strong Republican candidate emerge, it
should be obvious.

DAN
THOMASSON
This has been a president
who might have been better
off not making so many
pledges, pledges seasoned
veterans of Washington,
D.C., warned were beyond
him.
It is that history that is now
catching up with him as his
seeming lack of leadership
qualities are reflected in his
low public opinion ratings.
Americans who saw him as
the harbinger of change in
the first election and with
slightly less renewed support in the second have become increasingly disillusioned and untrusting of his
follow through. There is a
strong suspicion that his decision to move now was influenced at least in part by
the need for his party to
stave off Republican Senate
challenges in the coming
election.
A total GOP congressional
majority would euthanize
his presidency two years
early. It will be tough sledding for him anyway.
At this stage, while there
might be questions about
whether the maniacs in ISIS
are a threat to this nation’s
and to the world’s security,
as some experts have suggested, there is little doubt
that left unchecked they
soon would be.
Most Americans, no matter how reluctantly, agree
with this, the polls show. The
beheading of two American
journalists and now a British
aid worker has punctuated
that explicitly.
Can Obama put together
the coalition, which necessarily must include stable
Middle East governments,
or has he waited too long?
His then Secretary of State
Hillary Clinton advised him
to step forward on Syria
much earlier. He did not do
so and the foothold ISIS was
able to establish has led to
this crisis.
The president’s dithering
for weeks, even when it
seemed obvious this was not
just a minor incursion by a
few zealots, made him look
indecisive.
Meanwhile, ISIS has
grown from a force of 10,000
butchers to one estimated at
25,000 to 30,000. Had
Obama gone to the public
earlier, looked the American
people in the eye and
through clenched teeth not
only denounced these monsters but announced that we
would do whatever it takes
to eliminate them from the
earth, his ratings might have
shown a return of public
trust.
Basketball coaches and
baseball managers challenge the referees and umpires not because they believe they can overturn a
call, but to get their attention. As a sportsman,
Obama should have learned
that lesson. We needed him
to get madder than hell.

Respiratory illness
seen in 12 states
NEW YORK (AP) —
Health officials say 12
states now have respiratory
illnesses caused by an uncommon virus — enterovirus 68.
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention officials say Alabama, Colorado, Illinois, Indiana,
Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky,
Louisiana, Missouri, New
York, Oklahoma and Pennsylvania together have 130
lab-confirmed cases. All
are children.
The virus can cause mild
to severe illness, with the
worst cases needing life
support for breathing difficulties. Kids with asthma
have been especially vulnerable. No deaths have
been reported.
The strain is not new but
only a small number of
labs can test for it. Since
mid-August, there’s been
an unusual spike in identified cases. The CDC has
tested more than 200 specimens from more than 30
states.
Investigators say it’s not
yet clear what triggered the
outbreak or whether it’s
worsening.

Lawmakers to vote on
arming Syrian rebels
By ANDREW TAYLOR
Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Wary House
lawmakers are on track to give
President Barack Obama authority
to order U.S. military training and
arms for moderate rebels confronting the growing danger of Islamic State militants.
Obama was likely to get his wish
in a vote today despite worries
from hawks in both parties that
his response was insufficient to
battle terrorists who have overrun
wide swaths of Iraq and Syria.
“If we want to open a front
against (Islamic State forces) in
Syria, we have to open a front. And
I don’t see any other way to do it
than try to build an alternative
force,” said Rep. Adam Smith of
Washington, top Democrat on the
House Armed Services Committee.
“No one’s excited about it but,
you know, it’s the best from a series of bad options.”
Republican leaders have swung
behind Obama’s request, though
they’re not pressuring the GOP
rank and file to follow suit. Top
Democrats promised the measure
would pass.
“I think there’s a lot more that we
need to be doing, but there’s no
reason for us not to do what the
president asked us to do,” Speaker
John Boehner, R-Ohio, said. House
Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi of
California also supports the mission, as does Senate GOP leader
Mitch McConnell of Kentucky. The
measure would send U.S. military
trainers to Saudi Arabia to arm
and train Syrian opponents of Islamic State militants, who have
routed U.S.-trained Iraqi security
forces repeatedly and threaten the
viability of the government in
Baghdad.
Obama has also vowed to use air
power to strike Islamic State militants but has maintained repeatedly that American forces will not
have a renewed ground combat
mission in Iraq in this new phase
of a long battle against terrorists.
“I wish that we were doing more,
but this is the only option that
we’ve been given,” Rep. Chris
Stewart, R-Utah, said. “And we
must at least do this.”
But in a Senate hearing, the nation’s top military officer said U.S.
ground troops may be needed to
battle the Islamic State group in
the Middle East if Obama’s strate-
gy fails.
Army Gen. Martin Dempsey,
chairman of the Joint Chiefs of
Staff, told the Senate Armed Services Committee that if Obama’s
current approach isn’t enough to
prevail, he might “go back to the
president and make a recommendation that may include the use of
ground forces.”
That drew a prompt, polite rebuttal from the White House.
Obama “will not deploy ground
troops in a combat role into Iraq
or Syria,” spokesman Josh Earnest
said.
After the hearing, Dempsey told
reporters traveling with him to
Paris that about half of Iraq’s army
is incapable of partnering effectively with the U.S. to roll back the
Islamic State group’s territorial
gains in western and northern
Iraq, and the other half needs to
be partially rebuilt with U.S. training and additional equipment.
The new authority for Obama’s
plan would be added to a spending bill that’s needed to keep the
government running into December and avoid a politically damaging repeat of last year’s partial
shutdown of government agencies.

Foundation awards ‘genius grants’
CHICAGO (AP) — A professor
whose research is helping a California police department improve its
strained relationship with the black
community and a lawyer who advocates for victims of domestic
abuse are among the 21 winners of
this year’s MacArthur Foundation
“genius grants.”
The Chicago-based John D. and
Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation announced today the 2014 recipients, who will each receive
$625,000 to spend any way they
like.
The professor and lawyer, part of
an eclectic group that includes scientists, mathematicians, historians, a cartoonist and a composer,
are among several recipients
whose work involves topics that
have dominated the news in the
past year.
“I think getting this (grant)
speaks to people’s sense that this is
the kind of work that needs to be
WASHINGTON — The nation’s top auto
regulator faced withering criticism across
Capitol Hill on Tuesday about its failure
to identify a deadly defect in General Motors cars — even as its top official tried
again and again to shift the blame back to
the automaker.
Hours after a House committee released a scathing report about the
agency’s yearslong failure to spot the ignition-stalling defect that has now been
linked to 19 deaths, a Senate subcommittee hearing
turned angry
and tense.
Lawmakers
from both
parties accused the
agency, the
National
Highway Traffic Safety Administration,
DAVID FRIEDMAN
of overlooking
... deputy administrator evidence that
could have
saved lives and of deferring to the auto
industry rather than standing up to it.
The agency was “more interested in
singing ‘Kumbaya’ with the manufacturers than being a cop on the beat,” said
Sen. Claire McCaskill, D-Mo. and the subcommittee’s chairwoman, in sharp questioning reminiscent of her interrogation
of GM’s chief executive, Mary T. Barra, in
a hearing before the same panel in the
spring.
David Friedman, deputy administrator
of the agency who serves as its de facto
head, gave little ground in contending
that its failings were largely the result of
uncooperative automakers, as in the case
of GM, which he said had illegally withheld critical information from the agency.
“NHTSA was actively trying to find the
ball,” he said. “GM was actively trying to
hide the ball.”
Even as senators agreed that GM was
mostly at fault, they took aim at Friedman, saying that the agency failed to use
its full authority over automakers and
that it did not figure out defect trends
that consumers themselves had alerted
the agency to.
“You want to obfuscate responsibility,
rather than take responsibility,” McCaskill said, her voice rising.
The tone was markedly different from
the last time Friedman appeared on Capitol Hill to discuss the agency’s role in the
GM ignition switch. Then, in early April,
nearly all the fire was directed at Barra for
the company’s decadelong failure to recall 2.6 million cars for the ignitionswitch problem.
Since then, GM has faced more than
100 lawsuits and a half-dozen civil and
criminal investigations, as well as a $35
million fine from the safety agency for
not reporting the defect in a timely manner.
done,” said recipient Jennifer Eberhardt, a Stanford University social
psychologist who has researched
racial stereotypes and crime.
Her work prompted the Oakland,
Calif., police department to ask for
her help studying racial biases
among its officers and how those
biases play out on the street — topics that have been debated nationally in the wake of the police shooting of Michael Brown, an unarmed
black 18-year-old in Missouri.
Eberhardt is also studying the use
of body cameras by police.
The justice system is also at the
heart of Sarah Deer’s work as a legal
scholar and advocate for Native
American women living on reservations, who suffer higher-thanaverage rates of domestic abuse
and sexual violence.
Deer, a Native American who
teaches law in Minnesota, met with
women who simply stopped reporting such attacks because their
tribal governments had been
stripped of the authority to investigate and because federal authorities were often unwilling to do so,
she said. The foundation pointed
to her instrumental role in reauthorization of the Violence Against
Women Act by Congress in 2013
that restored some of those abilities to tribes.
Like Deer, fellow recipient
Jonathan Rapping has worked to
improve the lives of others.
A former public defender, Rapping founded Gideon’s Promise
after seeing a legal system that he
said valued speed over quality representation of the indigent. The organization trains, mentors and assist public defenders to help them
withstand the intense pressure that
can come with massive caseloads.
Today, the program that began in
2007 for 16 attorneys in two offices
in Georgia and Louisiana has more
than 300 participants in 15 states.
TOKYO — Sony expects its annual loss to

year that ends March 31. Its previous forecast was for a $466 million net loss.
Sony has been trying to reshape its business after years of red ink. It said the bigger
loss stems from a lower valuation of its mobile phone business due to weak sales. The
company is recording an “impairment
charge” of $1.7 billion in the July-September quarter.
The impairment charge is purely an adjustment to the company’s balance sheet,
involving no cash, but it reflects that the
mobile business is far less valuable and will
generate lower profits than previously
thought.
Sony said it revised its mobile communications business strategy to reduce risks
and stabilize profits in light of “significant
change in the market and competitive environment of the mobile business.”
It plans to concentrate on its “premium
lineup” of smartphones and reduce the
number of mid-range models.
Sony plans three Xperia Z3 smartphone
and tablet models, with its signature waterproof capabilities, for this fall. For the first
time, one of the phones will be available in
the U.S., through T-Mobile, at about the
same time as the rest of the world, rather
than months later.
Sony today left its full-year sales forecast
unchanged at $72.8 billion. It said it won’t
pay a dividend to shareholders for the first
half or full year.

Two companies
win contracts
from NASA
By KENNETH CHANG
New York Times News Service
Boeing and the Space Exploration Technologies Corp. are the winners in the competition to carry Americans astronauts to
the International Space Station, NASA announced Tuesday.
The awards reflect a fundamental shift in
NASA’s human spaceflight program, relying
on private companies rather than the traditional hands-on approach, in which the
space agency designed and operated the
spacecraft. The first flights could take off as
soon as 2017.
“We have credible plans for both companies to get there by that period of time,”
Kathryn Lueders, the manager for NASA’s
commercial crew program, said during a
news conference on Tuesday.
“We will not sacrifice crew safety for that
goal.”
Boeing received a $4.2 billion contract.
Space Exploration Technologies — better
known as SpaceX, of Hawthorne, Calif. —
received a $2.6 billion contract.
“Today we’re one step closer to launching
our astronauts from U.S. soil on American
spacecraft and ending the nation’s sole reliance on Russia,” said Charles F. Bolden Jr.,
the NASA administrator.
Since the retirement of the space shuttles
in 2011, NASA has had no way to send its astronauts to orbit, relying on the venerable
Russian Soyuz spacecraft for transportation
to and from the International Space Station
at a cost of $70 million per seat.
That became a politically uncomfortable
arrangement after Russia’s annexation of
Crimea and support of pro-Russian separatists in Ukraine.
John Mulholland, the commercial crew
manager at Boeing, said NASA called just
before the news conference to tell him his
company had won the competition. “It was
a real mixture of inspiration and humbleness,” he said. Under the contracts, Boeing
and SpaceX will finish development of their
spacecraft. Boeing’s CST-100 capsule, configured to carry up to five people, will
launch on an Atlas 5 rocket. SpaceX’s Dragon 2 capsule, a sleeker, updated version of
the capsule already carrying cargo to the
space station, will ride on top of the company’s Falcon 9 rocket.
The hope is that the commercial approach will spur a space travel industry far
larger than just NASA.
Boeing, for example, hopes that the fifth
seat in its CST-100 capsule could carry a
paying tourist to the space station.

Census shows first decline
in poverty rate since 2006
By ROBERT PEAR
New York Times News Service
WASHINGTON — The
poverty rate declined last
year for the first time since
2006, the Census Bureau reported Tuesday. But at the
same time, it said, there was
no statistically significant
change in the number of
poor people or in income for
the typical U.S. household.
The report showed significant improvements for children. The poverty rate for
children under 18 declined
last year for the first time
since 2000, the bureau said,
and the number of children
in poverty fell by 1.4 million,
to 14.7 million.
Overall, the bureau said,
14.5 percent of Americans
were living in poverty last
year, down from 15 percent
in 2012.
Charles T. Nelson, a Census
Bureau official, said the decline in the poverty rate resulted partly from an increase in the number of people working full time yearround.
In particular, he said, the
numbers show an increase in
employment and earnings
for parents with dependent
children.
The bureau estimated that
45.3 million people were living below the poverty level in
2013. This did not represent a
statistically
significant
change from the estimate for
2012, the bureau said in its
annual report on income and
poverty.
Poverty thresholds vary
with the size and composition of a family. A family of
four was classified as poor if
it had income less than
$23,830 last year; for one person, the threshold was
$11,890.
The official poverty levels
are updated each year to reflect changes in the Consumer Price Index.
The income figures do not
reflect the value of non-cash
benefits like food stamps,
Medicaid, Medicare and
public housing. Nor do they
include capital gains or the
effects of taxes and tax credits.
Median household income
in the U.S. was $51,940 last
year, the bureau said. This
was not statistically different
from median income in
2012, after adjustment for inflation.
The number of households
with income above the median is the same as the number
below it.
Many households have not
regained the purchasing
power they had before the recession that began in December 2007.

Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The
House Select Committee on
Benghazi gets its public
debut today, two years after
militants in the eastern
Libyan city killed a U.S. ambassador and three other
Americans, and four months
after Republicans launched
their special investigation.
The panel is using its first
open hearing to focus on
what the Obama administration has done since the Sept.
11, 2012, attack to improve
security at U.S. embassies
and other diplomatic missions around the world.
The State Department’s
chief of diplomatic security
was to be the committee’s
first witness.
It was unclear whether the
big allegations that prompted the probe will be examined — that U.S. forces were
directed not to respond and
that administration officials
lied about the nature of the
attack.
“This is truly an effort to do
fact-finding,” Rep. Mike
Pompeo of Kansas, one of
seven Republicans on the 12-
member committee, said in a
telephone interview, stressing the thoroughness of the
investigation, not its urgency.
“Much of the work we’re
going to do won’t be in hearings like we’re having this
week.”
On the surface, the hearing
should be noncontroversial.
It will center on the State Department’s implementation
of an independent review
board’s recommendations to
correct “systemic failures”
that led to grossly inadequate security in Benghazi.
The department endorsed
the recommendations and
there is little disagreement
between congressional Democrats and Republicans
about them.
But on almost everything
else related to Benghazi —
interpretations of what happened before, during and
after the attack — a far
greater partisan divide prevails.
Republicans have issued a
range of accusations, from
the military holding back assets that could have saved
American lives to President
Barack Obama, former Secretary of State Hillary Rod-

ham Clinton and others misleading the public about the
attack as Americans prepared for a presidential election. Democrats deride the
continued interest in Benghazi as a right-wing obsession designed to maintain
talk of scandal and harm a
potential Clinton bid for the
presidency in 2016.
When House Speaker John
Boehner, R-Ohio, called for

Party with a feast fit for Hogwarts
By EMILY YOUNG
It’s easy to make, even without a wand. All you have to
do is buy a pound cake and
garnish it with layers of raspberries, jam and whipped
cream. You can even prepare
it the day before. That’s real
magic.
For something less
sweet than the trifle,
just-out-of-the-oven
rock cakes will delight your guests.
When you get to
Hogwarts, Hagrid is sure to
offer you his
special recipe
for these
treats.

desserts that materialize in
the massive dining hall ?

Japanese rice updates
classic stuffed peppers
By ALISON LADMAN
Associated Press
Here’s the thing about baked stuffed peppers — plenty of people hate them. And
when you consider the classic approach to
this dish, it’s hard to argue. Tasteless ground
beef mixed with white rice and some sort of
tomato product? Not particularly exciting.
So we decided to create a version with
plenty more appeal. We started by ditching
the ground beef in favor of chicken, then replaced the flavorless white rice with the
more robust japonica, a colorful Japanese
variety. Now add shiitake mushrooms, fresh
herbs and goat cheese, and you’ve got a
stuffed pepper worth getting excited about.
JAPONICA, SHIITAKE AND CHICKEN
STUFFED PEPPERS
Start to finish: 1 hour
The Associated Press
STUFFED PEPPERS are ready in an hour.
Servings: 6
6 large red bell peppers
1 cup japonica rice
2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
2 tablespoons butter
5 ounces shiitake mushroom caps, thinly
sliced
Kosher salt and ground black pepper
¼ cup chopped shallots
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 ribs celery, diced
1 small yellow onion, diced
2 cups chopped or shredded cooked
chicken
2 tablespoons chopped fresh marjoram
or oregano
4 ounces goat cheese, crumbled
Heat the oven to 350 F. Coat a 9-by-9-inch
baking dish with cooking spray.
Slice ½ inch off the top of each pepper,
then scoop out and discard any seeds and
ribs. Set aside.
In a medium saucepan, combine the rice
and chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer, cover and cook for 35 to
45 minutes, or until all the broth is absorbed.
While the rice cooks, in a large skillet over
medium-high, melt the butter. Add the
mushrooms and season with a pinch of salt
and pepper. Cook until most of the water
has been released from the mushroom and
has evaporated, 6 to 8 minutes. Add the
shallots, garlic, celery and onion and continue to cook until the onion and celery are
tender, another 5 to 6 minutes.
In a large bowl, combine the rice, mushroom mixture, chicken, marjoram and goat
cheese. Season with salt and black pepper.
Spoon the mixture into the peppers and
place in the prepared baking dish. Bake for
30 minutes, or until the peppers are tender.

Pepin starts final series
By MICHELE KAYAL
Associated Press
Jacques Pepin soon will
begin production on what
his longtime television network is calling his final
cooking series, but the chef
who has taught generations
of Americans to cook says
he’s far from retiring.
KQED Public Television,
the San Francisco-based
station that has produced
more than a dozen of
Pepin’s popular cooking series over the last quarter
century, said in a recent release that it will begin
recording Pepin’s final series
in October.
Called “Jacques Pepin:
Heart and Soul,” the 26episode series will offer a
retrospective of sorts, draw-
ing on
the
chef’s 60
years in
the
kitchen,
as well as
past
episodes
he has
recorded.
Pepin, JACQUES PEPIN
who
... cooking icon
turns 80
next year, said the intensity
of the production schedule
and the need to produce a
cookbook with each series
has become too much.
But he stressed that he is
not retiring. “Julia never retired,” he says, referring to
his longtime friend and fellow television cooking icon
Julia Child. He is simply cutting back.
“C’mon, I’m not too
young,” Pepin said during a
telephone interview from
his Madison, Conn., home.
He said he isn’t giving up television, but he is no longer
interested in doing shows
on the scale of his current
project.
Pepin, along with Child,
helped shape American
culinary culture. He said he
will continue to teach classes at Boston University and
in New York. He also will
continue his frequent guest
appearances on cooking
shows, such as Rachael
Ray’s series and ABC’s “The
Chew.”
Pepin said he was surprised by the stir word of his
final series has caused.

CARAMEL ICING tops Pumpkin Cinnamon Buns.
Wrap pumpkin pie
in a cinnamon bun
By ALISON LADMAN
Associated Press
A pumpkin pie. Rolled up
in a cinnamon bun. Do we
have your attention yet?
That’s right. ... We took our
autumn baking to a delicious
new level by combining two
classics, then topping them
with an intensely good
homemade caramel sauce
spiked with flaked sea salt for
added oomph and to contrast to all that sweetness.
When slicing the log of
dough into individual buns,
a serrated knife works well.
You also can use unflavored,
unwaxed dental floss (or
heavy thread). To do this,
hold a length of floss (about
15 inches or so) by both ends.
Slide the floss under the log
and move it down to where
you would make the first cut.
Now lift both ends up over
the dough log and pull in opposite directions across the
log to slice through. Repeat
with the remaining rolls.
SALTED CARAMEL
PUMPKIN BUNS
Start to finish: 1½ hours
(30 minutes active)
Servings: 12
For the dough:
3 tablespoons granulated
sugar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1½ cups milk, warmed
slightly
4 tablespoons (½ stick)
unsalted butter, room
temperature
4 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon instant yeast
½ teaspoon ground
cardamom
For the filling:
2 ounces cream cheese,
room temperature
1/3 cup canned pumpkin
1 egg white
½ teaspoon ground dry
ginger
¼ teaspoon ground
nutmeg
¼ teaspoon cinnamon
For the glaze:
3 tablespoons butter
1¼ cups packed dark
brown sugar
½ cup light cream
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla bean
paste
½ teaspoon flake sea salt
To prepare the dough, in
the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook, combine all ingredients and mix
on low until the dough is soft
and elastic, about 8 minutes.
Alternatively, the dough can
be mixed by hand. If so, in a
large bowl combine all ingredients but start with 2 cups of
the flour, then slowly work in
the remaining 2 cups as the
dough comes together.
Turn the dough out onto a
floured work surface and
knead several times. Cover
with plastic wrap and let rest
for 15 minutes.
Once the dough has rested,
use a rolling pin to roll it out
into a 12-by-18-inch rectangle. If the dough shrinks
back, allow it to rest a little
longer before continuing.
Heat the oven to 350 F. Coat
a 9-by-13-inch baking pan
with cooking spray. Alterna-
tively, line a rimmed baking
sheet with kitchen parchment and coat with cooking
spray.
To prepare the filling, in a
medium bowl use an electric
mixer beat together the
cream cheese, pumpkin, egg
white, ginger, nutmeg and
cinnamon.
Spread
the
pumpkin mixture evenly
over the rolled out dough
going all the way to the edge
except on one long side
(leave 1 inch of that long side
bare). Starting with that side,
roll up the dough into a log
like a jelly roll, pinching the
sides to seal.
Using a sharp knife, cut the
log into 12 rounds. Arrange
the rounds in the prepared
pan. If using the 9-by-13inch pan, the buns will
touch. If using a baking
sheet, the buns can be
spread out (and will cook
slightly faster). Cover with
plastic wrap and allow to rise
until slightly puffy, about 20
minutes. Bake for 25 to 30
minutes, or until golden
brown and the buns reach an
internal temperature of 190 F.
While the buns bake, make
the glaze. In a medium
saucepan over medium-high
heat, combine the butter,
brown sugar, cream and cinnamon. Cook, stirring frequently, for 5 minutes or
until slightly thickened. Stir
in the vanilla bean paste and
salt. When the buns are
cooked, immediately drizzle
all over with the caramel.
Allow to cool for 10 minutes
before serving.

Red tide
threat to
Florida
economy
House bill prevents
welfare for weed
By STEPHEN OHLEMACHER

CLEARWATER, Fla. — It’s
like Florida’s version of The
Blob. Slow moving glops of
toxic algae in the northeast
Gulf of Mexico are killing sea
turtles, sharks and fish, and
threatening the waters and
beaches that fuel the region’s
economy.
Known as “red tide,” this
particular strain called Karenia brevis is present nearly
every year off Florida, but
large blooms can be particularly devastating. Right now,
the algae is collecting in an
area about 60 miles wide and
100 miles long, about 5 to 15
miles off St. Petersburg in the
south and stretching north to
Florida’s Big Bend, where the
peninsula ends and the Panhandle begins.
Fishermen who make a living off the state’s northwest
coast are reporting fish kills
and reddish water.
“It boils up in the propeller
wash like boiled red Georgia
clay. It’s spooky,” said Clearwater fisherman Brad Gorst
as he steered the charter fishing boat Gulfstream 2 in waters near Honeymoon Island,
where dead fish recently
washed ashore.
Red tide kills fish, manatees
and other marine life by releasing a toxin that paralyzes
their central nervous system.
The algae also foul beaches
and can be harmful to people
who inhale the algae’s toxins
when winds blow onshore or
by crashing waves, particularly those with asthma and
other respiratory ailments.
In 2005, a strong red tide
killed reefs, made beaches

AN ALGAE BLOOM is shown off the shore of Coquina Beach, Fla. in 2006. Known as the “red
tide,” these blooms will foul beaches and kill sea life. A bloom is now collecting in an area 60
miles wide and 100 miles long off the northwest coast of Florida.
stinky and caused millions in
economic damage. A weaker
red tide in 2013 killed 276
manatees, state records
show, after infecting the
grasses eaten by the endangered creatures.
“This red tide ... will likely
cause considerable damage
to our local fisheries and our
tourist economy over the
next few months,” said Heyward Mathews, an emeritus
professor of oceanography at
St. Petersburg College who
has studied the issue for
decades.
Despite years of study,
there’s nothing anyone has
been able to do about it. In
the 1950s, wildlife officials
tried killing the red tide algae
by dumping copper sulfate
on it, which made the problem worse in some ways. But
some researchers are working to change that.
Predicting when red tides
are going to be especially bad
can help fishermen and
beach businesses prepare.
Right now, much of the information comes from satel-

WASHINGTON — The
House passed a bill Tuesday night that could make
it a little harder for people
to use government welfare
payments to buy marijuana
in states where the drug is
legal.
Supporters call it the “no
welfare for weed” bill.
The bill would prevent
people from using government-issued welfare debit
cards to make purchases at
stores that sell marijuana. It
would also prohibit people
from using the cards to
withdraw cash from ATMs
in those stores.
A 2012 federal law already
prevents people from using
welfare debit cards at liquor
stores, casinos and strip
clubs. Rep. Dave Reichert,
R-Wash., is the main sponsor of the bill. He said it is a
logical extension of existing
law now that Washington
state and Colorado have legalized marijuana for recre-
ational use.
“The fact that some people are using welfare for
weed is outrageous,” Reichert said in a statement.
“While some may decide to
spend their own money on
drugs, we’re not going to
give them a taxpayer subsidy to do it.”
The House passed the bill
on a voice vote, which does
not require lawmakers to
cast a recorded vote.
The reach of the bill
would be limited, however,
because pot smokers could
still use their benefit cards
to get cash from an ATM at
a different store or bank,
and then use the money to
buy marijuana. Rep. Lloyd
Doggett, D-Texas, said he
supported the bill. But he
complained that it “does
nothing to address the tattered safety net.”
“Why not prevent people
from using benefit cards at
massage parlors and Cadillac dealerships?” Doggett
said. “Just blame the poor
for being poor.”

Police ID suspect in shooting of state troopers
Continued from Page 1
rifle cases and military gear.
“We intend to keep him on
the run until we catch him,”
State Police Commissioner
Frank Noonan said at a news
conference Tuesday in which
he revealed the suspect’s
name.
Calling him “extremely
dangerous,” Noonan said
Frein has a long-standing
grudge against law enforcement.
“He has made statements
about wanting to kill law enforcement officers and also
to commit mass acts of murder,” Noonan said. “What his
reasons are, we don’t know.
But he has very strong feelings about law enforcement
and seems to be very angry
with a lot of things that go on
in our society.”
Frein was charged Tuesday
with first-degree murder,
homicide of a law enforcement officer and other offenses. “We have no idea
where he is,” Noonan said.
Police found a U.S. Army
manual called “Sniper Training and Employment” in the
suspect’s bedroom at his parents’ house, and his father, a
retired Army major, told authorities that his son is an excellent marksman who
“doesn’t miss,” according to a
police affidavit released
Tuesday.
Frein has held anti-law enforcement views for many
years and has expressed
them both online and to people who knew him, Lt. Col.
George Bivens said.
“This was not unexpected,”
Bivens said. “As we’ve interviewed a number of people,
that’s been the common
theme. This was not a surprise.”
Frein’s father, Michael
Frein, who spent 28 years in
the Army, told police that two
weapons were missing from
the home — an AK-47 and a
.308-caliber rifle with a
scope, according to the police affidavit.
Lars Prillaman, who manages a small farm in West Virginia, said he knew Frein very
briefly from their time as mil-
itary re-enactors. He told The
Associated Press he was “saddened by what happened”
and said Frein was “a different person eight years ago.”
Court documents filed
Tuesday revealed new details
about the ambush.
According to the documents, Cpl. Bryon Dickson
was shot as soon as he
walked out the front door of
the barracks.
A communications officer
heard the shot, saw Dickson
on the ground and asked him
what had happened. Dickson told her he’d been hit and
asked her to bring him inside, but the gunman had
squeezed off another round,
forcing his would-be rescuer
inside. Trooper Alex Douglass, meanwhile, had just
arrived at the barracks and
was shot in the pelvis as he
walked toward Dickson.
Douglass managed to
crawl into the lobby, where
another trooper brought him
into a secure area of the barracks.
Douglass later underwent
surgery at a hospital.
Other troopers drove a patrol SUV into the parking lot
and used it as a shield so they
could drag Dickson into the
barracks and begin attempts
to save his life.
He died at the scene. A
coroner said he had been
shot twice.
About 90 seconds elapsed
between the first shot and
the fourth and final one.
With the gunman still on
the loose, residents near
Frein’s house were jittery.
Rich Turner, 52, who lives
around the corner, said
school buses avoided the
neighborhood Tuesday, with
parents directed to take their
kids to school and to pick
them up.
Schools in the Pocono
Mountain School District will
be closed today.
“Everybody’s wondering if
he’s still out there. Everyone’s
on edge, to a degree,” said
Turner.
Associated Press writer Sean
Carlin in Philadelphia contributed to this report.
Response mixed
on arming teachers

people” as a solution to such
a complex problem.
“We think a bullet and a
gun is going to solve that,
and I frankly think that’s an
overreach for a very complicated layer of issues that we
wrap up in the murder of a
child,” he said.
Sen. Andrew Dinniman, DChester, said all options
should be considered.
“I think all of us are searching ... for a way to protect our
young people, searching for a
way to come up with the best
solution,” he said.
“I don’t think there’s anyone who can say this is the
only way.”
The measure would authorize the state’s 500 school
boards to permit teachers,
administrators and other
staff members to arm themselves to protect students.
They would have to be licensed to carry a concealed
weapon and trained in the
use of firearms.
Eighteen states now allow
school employees to have
guns in schools, said Sen.
Mike Folmer, the committee’s chairman.
The Pennsylvania School
Boards Association said it
preferred not to take a position on the bill, at least in
part because of the public
debate over the role of guns.
“There are great differences of opinion about
whether increasing the presence of firearms in schools is
a wise or effective approach
for enhancing school security,” said Stuart Knade, the
group’s general counsel.
“That is not a debate in
which it is necessary or productive for PSBA to take a position, and it would be difficult for PSBA to take a position on (the bill) without
being perceived as jumping
into that other debate.”
Suspect charged
in weekend stabbing
Continued from Page 1
handed Rivera’s passport to
the judge.
Online records today show
Rivera is no longer listed as a
student at IUP.
In a criminal complaint, Indiana Borough detective
John Scherf reported that
Rivera slashed and stabbed
Brown at 5:45 p.m. Sunday
while Brown stood at the driver’s-side window of a car on
a driveway near the entrance
to Monro Muffler & Brake
Service, 1336 Oakland Ave.
Rivera, who was in the back
seat of the car, was implicated by the driver and frontseat passenger, Scherf reported.
Brown ran from the car,
bleeding profusely from
wounds to his upper left arm,
according to police, and was
sent to Indiana Regional
Medical Center for initial
treatment. From there,
Brown was flown to Allegheny General Hospital for surgery, and was listed in good
condition there this morning.
According to the charging
documents, witnesses at the
scene provided the car’s registration plate number, and
officers traced it to Ebnell
Barnett, an IUP student from
Phoenixville, Chester County. The university’s online
records today show no student listing for Barnett.
A state police trooper involved in the investigation
located the car about 9 p.m.
Sunday in a parking lot at 557
Carter Ave., and officers
found fresh blood inside the
driver’s side door, according
to the complaint.
Barnett told police that
Rivera pulled a knife and
stabbed Brown, and directed
police to Devin Peak, the
front-seat passenger in the
car.
Peak, an IUP student enrolled in the Eberly College of
Business, also identified
Rivera as the attacker when
police interviewed him
shortly before midnight Sunday, according to police.
Scherf reported he contacted Rivera by phone around
noon Monday.
While court papers don’t
indicate whether Rivera admitted to stabbing Brown,
the complaint shows Rivera
directed police to a gravel
alley near Barnett’s residence, where officers found a
folding knife with blood on
the blade. The knife had a red
handle, and Rivera told police it had been purchased at
Lowe’s.
At the brief court appearance Tuesday, Haberl allowed Rivera to remain free
on unsecured bond of
$50,000 and ordered him to
return for a preliminary
hearing on Oct. 2.
License denial affirmed

fare of the community, and
council denied Reilly’s request on a 10-2 vote.
The PLCB requires a resolution from the gaining municipality if a license transfer
is approved, and borough
manager William Sutton told
council Tuesday that borough solicitor Neva Stanger
recommended that a resolution also be adopted formalizing council’s vote last
month to deny the request
for the transfer.
Council Tuesday also reviewed what were described
as proposed “housekeeping”
amendments to five ordinances that will be considered for advertising at October’s meeting.
One amendment will remove outdated references to
floodway zones in the borough, and Councilman John
Hartman again recommended that before property owners buy expensive flood insurance they should consider having a surveyor verify
that their property really is in
a designated flood zone.
Another proposed amendment will clarify the responsibilities and authorities of
the borough planning department director, a position
created in May. Under the
amendment, the planning
and zoning department will
have the power to act on issues involving minor construction developments.
It will be the responsibility
of the planning and zoning
department, with assistance
from the borough’s planning
commission, to review large
developments, with council
taking back the right of final
approval for large developments.

OLIVER KILEY, with consultant SmithGroupJJR, spoke at the design workshop Tuesday at the Kovalchick Convention and
Athletic Complex in White Township.
Planning group drafts vision of future
Continued from Page 1
The workshop was hosted
Jeff Raykes of the Indiana
County Office of Planning
and Development and
SmithGroupJJR, an architectural and engineering firm
based in Ann Arbor, Mich.
Representing the firm was
Hillary Hanzel, Oliver Kiley
and Todd Poole.
Over the next five months
SmithGroupJJR will be compiling the ideas and returning to Indiana for more
feedback.
Earlier Tuesday, the three
representatives of SmithGroupJJR, local officials and
planners took a walking tour
of different parts of the university district. Their goal
was to help the architects
get a feel for the community
and see firsthand improvements that could be made
from the perspective of a
pedestrian.
The presentation Tuesday
night was an overview of the
project and a market analysis of the area.
Poole, a land use economist, identified some trends
in the area. Poole looked at
the area that spans 15 minutes in all directions from
the IUP campus, saying that
people don’t move through
an area based on municipal
boundaries but by how long
it takes them to get somewhere.
Poole said the population
is flat (steady, possibly declining economically), but
that incomes are rising rap-
idly in medical services,
high-tech and education.
He also said that vacancy
rates are low, most likely due
to the student population.
“However, we find that, in
general, affordable housing
is plentiful based on the
pricing that we’ve seen,”
Poole said. “We find that affordable housing in inextricably linked to good economic fundamentals. If you
have an expensive housing
market, that puts pressure
on businesses to make payroll and pay people what
they need to live in the
area.”
Poole also analyzed commercial spending for the
area. He said generally people in the area spend less
than the national average.
“We note that household
incomes in this area are
generally strong and that
there’s probably a lot of discretionary income leaking
out of the area.”
He said there was economic opportunity through
investment from the private
sector to supply people with
the kinds of places where
they want to shop.
After the presentation, the
audience got busy with
maps located at each of the
nine tables. They were given
stickers and markers in
three different colors to
mark areas of importance:
blue for enhance, green for
preserve and red for transform.
After about half an hour
the group sessions broke up
for a debriefing and each
table took turns talking
about their maps.
No one area caught more
red dots than the South Seventh Street and Wayne Avenue corridor, which culminates in the six-way intersection at South Seventh
and Locust streets. The chief
complaint was that, as a
pedestrian or biker, the intersection is difficult to safely navigate. Other complaints for that area included “decayed housing” and
complaints about the scrap
yard farther down Wayne
Avenue.
Another frequent complaint was the lack of sidewalks along Oakland Avenue after it crosses Rose
Street and Warren Road.
Students and residents who
live in that direction said
they felt isolated from other
areas of town.
Pedestrian problems were
pointed out in many areas
of town.
People expressed concern
that often areas don’t transition well into each other. Examples were crossing over
Sixth Street or getting from
the KCAC to Mack Park.
There were strong advocates for bike-friendly roads
and trails.
Some said they don’t feel
comfortable biking along
major routes and it makes
them feel isolated. One student remarked that he, like
many, does not have a car at
school and depends solely
on his bike for transportation. Once again, there was
a call to better connect the
Hoodlebug Trail to other
parts of town.
The Eighth Street corridor
also got a lot of attention.
Some thought the street was
underused for such an important connection between campus and downtown.
Housing was another concern.
Poole said that if there are
not enough smaller homes
for the area’s aging population. This creates a “traffic
jam” for younger people
who may want to buy a larger house in order to raise a
family.
One of the most popular
ideas was a dog park within
the borough.
Other green spaces were
also important to several of
the tables, with green
preservation dots on spaces
such as Mack Park, White’s
Woods and the Oak Grove.
As for the financing of any
ideas that come out of the
project, Kiley said, “It remains to be seen.”
Kiley said the local market
is going to determine the
value for land and other resources. On the public side,
the financial capability of
municipalities will have to
be evaluated.
The first of three large
charrettes (periods of collaborative design planning)
is set for Oct. 28-30.
Saudi clerics issue edict against terrorism
By ABDULLAH AL-SHIHRI
Associated Press
RIYADH, Saudi Arabia —
Saudi Arabia’s highest body
of religious scholars issued a
stern ruling today calling
terrorism a “heinous crime”
and saying perpetrators including Islamic State militants deserve punishment
in line with Islamic law.
The Council of Senior Religious Scholars said in its
fatwa, or religious edict, that
it backs the kingdom’s efforts to track down and punish followers of the Islamic
State group and al-Qaida.
The clerics are appointed
by the government and are
seen as guardians of the
kingdom’s ultraconservative
Wahhabi school of Islam.
The statement by the group
of 21 scholars underpins the
kingdom’s broader efforts to
deter citizens from joining
extremist groups that want
to bring down the Westernallied monarchy.
U.S. Secretary of State
John Kerry traveled to Saudi
Arabia last week and won
support from the kingdom
and other Arab allies to help
fight the Islamic State militants who have seized large
parts of Iraq and Syria. A
State Department official
told reporters ahead of the
visit that Kerry planned to
ask Mideast countries to encourage government-controlled media and members
of the religious establishment to speak out against
extremism.
The edict highlights the
historically close relationship between the Wahhabi
establishment in Saudi Arabia and the kingdom’s
rulers, and gives religious
backing to the Saudi king’s
efforts to fight the Islamic
State as part of an international coalition. The council
is the only official authority
in Saudi Arabia allowed to
issue religious edicts concerning questions about
how citizens should live
their lives The council’s condemnations extended to
others the Saudi government opposes as well, including the Shiite Hawthi
rebel group in Yemen and
Saudi Hezbollah, a Shiite
militant movement that was
engaged in attacks in the
kingdom in the 1980s and
1990s. It also criticized what
it called “crimes of terrorism
practiced by the Israeli occupation.”
The scholars said authorities have to track down instigators of conflict and financiers of terrorism because
they commit “one of the
greatest sins” which is “disobeying the ruler.” They said
they support the government’s decision to prohibit
citizens from fighting in
conflicts abroad.
Though the council did
not recommend specific
punishments, it is considered a religious sin and a
criminal act in Saudi Arabia
to rebel against the king,
who oversees Islam’s two
holiest sites in Mecca and
Medina. To help back up its
religious ruling, the council
referred to words of the
Prophet Muhammad, who
warned against following
those who want to divide
the nation.
“This is a warning to the
advocates of division, strife
and sedition, and a warning
to those who followed them
from going too far in order
to avoid the punishment of
torment in this world and
the hereafter,” the statement
said.

HIGH SCHOOL BOYS’ SOCCER: Indiana 4, Southmoreland 0
Maturing Indians stay unbeaten
By MIRZA ZUKIC
[email protected]
KAYLA GRUBE/Gazette
INDIANA’S GARRETT STRITTMATTER (12) looked to pass
the ball late in Tuesday’s game against Southmoreland.
For the Indiana boys’ soccer
team, it doesn’t seem to be a
question of if the goals will
come, but rather when they’ll
come.
Take for example Tuesday’s
game, when the Indians
swarmed the Southmoreland
goal for the first 35 minutes of
the game with nothing to
show for it before finally put-
ting one in the back of the net
in the closing minutes of the
first half.
That opened the
floodgates and started
a four-goal spree in a
16-minute
period
spanning the two
halves as the Indians
rolled over the Scotties, 40, in a WPIAL Section 1-AA
game at Andy Kuzneski Field.
Indiana moved to 8-0 (4-0
section), three games better
than the previous best start in
school history, and the Indians aren’t ready to see it end
yet.
“We knew we were
going to have a strong
team,” senior Cole
Rosenberger said. “I
don’t know if I ever
would have thought 80, but I never counted
my guys out. … Once we got
to five (wins), and Coach
Myers let us know that 5-0 was
the record, we just had to win
one more. Every game …
when we go on the field, we
say 1, 2, 3, and then whatever
number we’re about to get so
that’s definitely in our minds,
keeping that going.”
“I had no idea since it was
my freshman year, and I didn’t
know what my teammates’
expectations were, but I’m
very happy,” freshman midfielder Eddie Chandler said.

Because he prefers to look ahead
rather than back, IUP coach Curt

PITTSBURGH — Charlie Morton had no expectations when he
took the mound in a major league
game for the first time in a month.
However, the Pittsburgh righthander exceeded his manager’s
expectations as he came off the
disabled list to gain his first victory since July 2, and the Pirates
beat the Boston Red Sox 4-0 on
Tuesday night for their ninth win
in 11 games.
“I just wanted to go out and give
what I got,” Morton said. “I didn’t
know what was going to happen.
I’m glad with the way it turned
out.”
Sidelined since Aug. 16 because
of right hip inflammation and a
sports hernia, Morton (6-12) allowed four hits in five innings,
struck out six and walked two. He
had been 0-3 with a 5.09 ERA in
his eight previous starts.
“We felt we’ve got a guy there we
needed to see where he could go
and what he could bring,” Pittsburgh manager Clint Hurdle said.
“We didn’t want to wait any
longer. We wanted to see what he
could bring, and adjust accordingly. He worked very hard (while
on the DL) and his preparation
paid off. It was a real shot in the
arm.”
Five pitchers combined on
three-hit relief, completing the
Pirates’ eighth shutout this season. Boston has been blanked 15
times.

UP TO THE
CHALLENGE
The first race of the Chase was a microcosm
of the regular season and likely a preview of the
remaining playoff races.
Brad Keselowski, driving a Team Penske
Ford, pulled away from Jeff Gordon, wheeling
a Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet, as the two
top-seeded drivers finished first and second at
Chicagoland Speedway.
While there is no rest for Chase competitors,
Keselowski can go to the second race of the playoffs without worrying about advancing to the next
round of competition. Race winners get a pass to
the next round.
On the other hand, he doesn’t want to lose momentum. He’s won the past two Cup races.
“I want to enjoy the moment, but I still know
there’s nine weeks to go,” said Keselowski, the
2012 Cup champ. “We have a bit of a hall pass for
the next two … I’m very appreciative.
“But those other seven, nobody cares that we
won Chicago, nobody cares that we won Richmond or the other three races. It keeps resetting.
You have to reset yourself. You have to keep
developing the car and pushing as a team.”
Gordon was happy with second place, knowing
that top-five finishes will take him to the Championship Round at Homestead-Miami Speedway in
November.
Gordon, a four-time Cup champ, didn’t back
away from his comment about being happy with
nine consecutive second-place finishes going into
Homestead.
“Eight more and I’ll be really happy,” he said
with a laugh. “You want to get the win. While you
can move to the next level with that happening,
you almost kind of have to win after that.
“I think this is a great time for us to come out

Should anything surprise us

of here really solid and with a great second-place
finish. We’ve got to get a little bit better. No doubt
about it.”
Even with their combined success at Chicago,
both drivers are looking over their shoulders.
The only surprise is that there were
no big surprises. No one went behind
the Chase 8-ball — unless they were
deemed a long shot anyway (take a
bow, Aric Almirola). And no one ran
up front who wasn’t expected to do
just that. So there you have it, one
winner (Brad Keselowski) and, frankly,
only one loser (did we mention Aric
already?).
TOYOTA’S TROUBLES
If it seems like it’s been a long time since
you’ve seen Denny Hamlin or Kyle Busch in Victory Lane, you are right. Team Toyota has gone
17 races without a victory. The last Toyota win
was by Hamlin on May 4 at Talladega. That was
springtime, and the calendar now has a toe in
autumn. Matt Kenseth, winless this season, said
he was disappointed with 10th place Sunday and
Toyota needs to “figure that out and how we can
be better.”
Only one loser? What about those
Roush boys?
If you finish midpack, you don’t
quite qualify as one of the first-round
losers, yet you didn’t do yourself any
favors. Carl Edwards finished 20th
at Chicagoland and teammate (for a
while longer) Greg Biffle finished 23rd.
But frankly, no one we know had either
on the short list of Chase favorites.
THE REAL DEAL
Jeff Gordon, 43, sees a little of his young self in
22-year-old Kyle Larson. They raced side by side
for second-place honors Sunday. Gordon nabbed
the position, and the two had a chat after the race.
“I think this kid is the real deal,” Gordon said. The
“Wonder Boy” torch has been passed.
What about that other Roush
racer?
Oh yeah, finally a headline for Ricky
Stenhouse, who, a couple of years ago,
was seemingly destined for NASCAR
stardom. Well, he got the stardom, but
not yet for the right reasons. And this
past Sunday, he only got noticed because he collided with Ol’ What’s Her
Name, and for the record, they blamed
a spotter. It’s still early enough in the
relationship that any issues can be
blamed on a third party.

Marcos Ambrose says ‘G’Day mate’ to head back to Australia
Marcos Ambrose, who some call the “Thunder
from Down Under,” will leave Richard Petty
Motorsports and the No. 9 Ford at the end of
the 2014 NASCAR Cup Series season. He plans
to race in his native Australia next year in a
car that will carry the Team Penske banner.
He spoke with the media about his decision to
return home.
What went into this decision?
“There has been a lot of conjecture through
the years, but I just want to get my kids home to
enjoy the Australian lifestyle as well so they can
make a good choice when they grow up. This
is really a racing choice for me, and I feel like
the time is right for me to stop in the U.S., and
personally I think it is a great time to move back
home to Australia with my family.”
How would you characterize your
NASCAR career?
“It has been fantastic. I never thought I would
achieve what I have at the Sprint Cup level. I
have survived here for years, and I have had
some wins, but not enough, and I feel like I was
up against it early on from my background.
I came from a country that doesn’t have any
asphalt oval racing at all, and so I feel like I have
achieved a lot and am really satisfied.”
Do you see yourself coming back to drive
road races?
“I haven’t really thought about that. This decision was made some time ago, and RPM felt like
(this) was a good day to announce it, but I had
spoken to RPM about this before the summer.”
What’s been the reaction from the team?
“They understand and have been very open
and frank with each other all the way through,
and RPM has been a great team to drive for and
fully understand my situation and have worked
together on this. I feel like I’ve left them better
than when I entered. I feel I’ve contributed to the
turnaround.
“When I first joined them in the turmoil of
the Gillette changeover, there were a lot of gray
clouds circling around them. They are on a great
path, and I wish them the best. I value Richard’s
friendship greatly and the family and everybody
here at RPM. They are a great company, and I
wish them the most success.”

Maturing Indians stay unbeaten
Continued from Page 13
“This is the best soccer team I’ve
ever been on.”
Sophomore Grant Sharp netted his
first goal of the season to open the
scoring with 4:10 left in the first half,
and seniors Rosenberger, David Zimmerman and Braydon Sharbaugh
each added a goal as Indiana’s highpowered offense continued its fast
start.
Indiana has scored 39 goals, putting the Indians more than twothirds of the way to last year’s total of
57. They average nearly five goals per
game, and they’ve scored at least
three goals in every contest.
But Tuesday was only their second
shutout, and it’s an encouraging sign
for a maturing group that’s still learning to play together.
“It’s a sign of maturity of the whole
team,” Indiana coach Todd Myers
said. “As a team, we’re playing better

strokes to win the Glade

Owen shot a 6-underpar 210 to earn his second
consecutive win.
Owen shot a 2-under 70
and a 3-under 69 in the
first two rounds on Monday to start what turned
out to be the best threeround tournament of his
career. He then shot a 1under 71 in Tuesday’s final
round to hold off California’s Chris Bushey for a
one-stroke victory.
As a team, the Crimson
Hawks finished with a 16over 880, holding off the
Vulcans’ late surge.
IUP opened the tournament with a 4-under 284
before recording a 6-over

Although the Vulcans sat
10 strokes behind after
that first round, they narrowed the gap to four

defensively. Just look at the first half
versus the second half tonight. We
talked to them at halftime, basically
that Southmoreland got their opportunities when we gave them the ball
so we really wanted to focus in the
second half on not giving the ball
away. … It’s more about team defense. The whole team has bought
into it. Yeah, the back four is jelling,
don’t get me wrong. The back four is
definitely jelling, doing well, picking
up marks, understanding their roles
better. But I think as a team, they’re
getting it too.”
Sharbaugh scored just 47 seconds
after Sharp, with 3:23 to play in the
first half, and Indiana took a 2-0 halftime lead on a pair of tap-in goals
from close range.
In the second half, Rosenberger
and Zimmerman scored three minutes apart as the Indians doubled
their lead in the opening 11 minutes
and cruised over the final half-hour.
“They outplayed us completely,
and we looked like garbage. That’s all
I got,” Southmoreland coach Chris
Hixson said tersely before declining
further comment.
As proficient as the offense has
been, what pleases Myers even more
is the Indians’ continued improvement in ball possession. They had the
ball for more than 50 minutes of the
80-minute game Tuesday, and they
limited the Scotties’ scoring chances
by keeping the ball away from them.
“Every game we just keep working
on it,” Myers said. “Even the second
half was better than the first half. And
that’s what I keep preaching to them:
If we have the ball, the other team
can’t score.”
Zimmerman raised his team-leading goal total to 11 while Sharbaugh
reached double digits with his 10th
goal. The team leader with 12 assists,
Rosenberger tallied his ninth goal.
The three-headed attack has already led the Indians to new heights
with the 8-0 start, and it presents a
challenge opponents rarely face.
“Teams with one goal scorer, it’s
hard enough to defend if you have a
good player,” Rosenberger said.
“When you have three up there, it’s
almost impossible, especially with
teams out here who have freshmen,
sophomores starting on the back line
who don’t know what the varsity high
school soccer game is all about, and
we come out there with three strong
players and even the supporting guys
around them.
“Our other center-mid and whoever is playing out wide, everyone is capable of playing and can put the ball
in the back of the net, and we’ve
shown that this year because we have
eight guys who’ve scored goals for
us.”

Three leave Hawks following big loss
Continued from Page 13
Weaver saw action in both contests
and went 0-for-2 with an interception.
Harrell, a transfer from TennesseeMartin, missed the first two games with
a hamstring injury.
“He has given up football for personal
reasons,” Cignetti said. “We never really
got him on the field.”
Lane, also an Indiana graduate, was a
walk-on who spent much of his time
working with the scout team defense.
The losses come in the wake of a 44-7
loss at Kutztown on Saturday. IUP entered the game ranked No. 20 in the
country and with momentum from a
season-opening 41-19 victory over Saint
Augustine’s on Sept. 6.
Cignetti said the loss isn’t a good
thing, but he prefers to look at it as an
opportunity.
“This is a tremendous opportunity for
us to improve,” he said. “The guys see
the lessons that need to be learned.
When you lose, it’s an opportunity for
growth and development. Whether you
lose by one or by 20, it doesn’t matter. A
loss is a loss. I’d rather it happen now so
that we can identify some issues that
may have been swept under the rug.”
IUP visits Lock Haven (0-2) on Saturday in another PSAC crossover game.
INJURY UPDATE: IUP suffered some
rather serious injuries in the loss to
Kutztown, with the biggest being a groin
injury to cornerback Jay Watkins.
Cignetti said the sophomore is “probably out for the season,” after re-aggravating an injury he suffered at the beginning of training camp.
“Potentially he is a really good player,
but he’s always had an injury bug,”
Cignetti said.
Also, tight end Brock DeCicco, who
left Saturday’s game in the first quarter
with an ankle injury, is listed as day-today; linebacker Dorian Lane, who
missed the first two games with a pulled
hamstring, returned to practice Monday, and Cignetti said he “has a chance”
to play at Lock Haven; starting right
guard Tony Morgante is listed as day-today with a knee injury; and running
back Izzy Green is out indefinitely with
a bruised heel.
CHANGES: Cignetti said he and his staff
have made a few changes in preparation
for Saturday’s visit to Lock Haven.
The biggest is on the defensive line,
where Jeff Palmer will get the start at defensive end, replacing Jordan Batts. In
the secondary, either Allen Wight or
Chris David will replace Watkins at field
cornerback, and Jordan Brown has been
moved to boundary cornerback, where
he will back up starter Jerell McFadden.
“It’s all about putting people in the
spots to give you the best chance at
being successful,” Cignetti said, “(and)
rewarding guys that produce.”
At quarterback, Haslett is the starter,
with Eddie Stockett moving up to replace Weaver as the backup. The issue
there is that there are only two quarterbacks on the roster now, and Stockett
hasn’t done much the past two weeks
with the offense because he has been
running the scout team.
“He’s been running the scout team for
the last two weeks,” Cignetti said, “so he
hasn’t been working with the offense for
two weeks. So we’ll get him caught back
up.”

THIS DATE IN BASEBALL
SEPT. 17
1930 — Cleveland’s Earl Averill drove in
eight runs with three consecutive home
runs to lead the Indians to a 13-7 victory
over the Washington Senators in a doubleheader opener. Averill added another
homer in the nightcap, which the Senators
took 6-4, and set an American League
record with 11 RBIs in the doubleheader.
1968 — Gaylord Perry of the San
Francisco Giants pitched a no-hitter against
the St. Louis Cardinals for a 1-0 victory.
1984 — Reggie Jackson became the
13th player in major league history to reach
500 home runs. No. 500 came off Kansas
City pitcher Bud Black. His homer came
exactly 17 years after he got his first career
hit.

BALTIMORE (AP) —
The NFL players’ union
appealed Ray Rice’s indefinite suspension Tuesday night.
Rice was originally
handed a two-game suspension in July under the
NFL’s personal conduct
policy after he was
charged with assault following a Feb. 15 altercation with his then-fiancée
in a casino elevator.
The Baltimore running
back had already served
the first game of that suspension when, on Sept. 8,
a video surfaced showing
Rice punching Janay
Palmer, now his wife, in
that elevator.
Within hours, the
Ravens released Rice and
NFL
Commissioner
Roger Goodell extended
the suspension to indefinite based on the “new
evidence.”
Goodell and the Ravens
say they never saw the
video before Sept. 8.
The NFLPA said that
the collective bargaining
agreement requires a
hearing date be set within 10 days of the appeal
notice. It also said the
hearing will require a
neutral arbitrator to determine what information was available to the
NFL and when it was
available.
The union, which had
until 11:59 p.m. Tuesday
to file the appeal, added
that under governing
labor law, an employee
can’t be punished twice
for the same action when
all of the relevant facts
were available to the employer at the time of the
first punishment.
• RALEIGH, N.C. (AP)
— A prosecutor said
Cleveland Browns receiver Josh Gordon will receive probation and undergo a substance-abuse
assessment after pleading guilty to a drunkendriving charge in North
Carolina.
Acting Wake County
district attorney Ned
Mangum said Gordon received a 60-day suspended jail sentence and one
year of unsupervised probation Tuesday.
He must also comply
with any treatment recommended through the
substance-abuse assessment, pay a $100 fine
along with court costs
and perform community
service. Mangum said the
court has also suspended
Gordon’s driver’s license.
Gordon’s attorney, Trey
Fitzhugh, entered a guilty
plea on Gordon’s behalf
on a charge of driving
while impaired from a
July arrest in Raleigh.

Banned, Peterson’s season might be over
By JON KRAWCZYNSKI
AP Sports Writer
MINNEAPOLIS — After a day of
public pressure from angry fans
and concerned sponsors, the Minnesota Vikings have reversed course
and placed star running back Adrian Peterson on the exempt-commissioner’s permission list, a move
that will require him to stay away
from the team while he addresses
child abuse charges in Texas.
The Vikings made the announcement early Wednesday morning,
about a day and a half after initially
deciding that Peterson could play
with the team while the legal
process played out. Peterson is
charged with a felony for using a
wooden switch to spank his 4-yearold son and now could miss the rest
of the season while the case proceeds through the court system.
The Vikings came under heavy
criticism for their initial stance.
Several sponsors responded by either suspending their deals with the
Vikings or severing ties with Peterson, prompting Vikings owners Zygi
and Mark Wilf to revisit the situation on Tuesday.
“While we were trying to make a
balanced decision yesterday, after
further reflection we have concluded that this resolution is best for the
Vikings and for Adrian,” the Wilfs
said in a statement. “We want to be
clear: we have a strong stance regarding the protection and welfare
of children, and we want to be sure
we get this right. At the same time
we want to express our support for
Adrian and acknowledge his sevenplus years of outstanding commitment to this organization and this
community.”
Peterson, 29, was indicted last
week in Montgomery County,
Texas, after admitting to authorities
that he struck his son with a tree
branch. Peterson said he was disciplining his son the same way his
own father disciplined him while
growing up in Palestine, Texas, and
didn’t intend to hurt him.
The Vikings deactivated him for
the 30-7 loss to New England on
Sunday while they gathered more
information. But on Monday they
announced that Peterson was being
reinstated and expected to play this
weekend at New Orleans.
The about-face came after the
Radisson hotel chains suspended
its sponsorship with the Vikings,
Papa John’s considered doing the
same, and Anheuser-Busch said it
was “disappointed and increasingly
concerned” with the negative attention brought to the league by
Ray Rice’s assault on his wife and
Peterson’s arrest.
Castrol Motor Oil, Special
Olympics Minnesota and Mylan
Inc. all severed ties with Peterson,
and Twin Cities Nike stores pulled
Peterson’s jerseys from its shelves.
“This is the best possible outcome given the circumstances,” Peterson’s agent, Ben Dogra, said of
the Vikings’ decision. “Adrian understands the gravity of the situation and this enables him to take
care of his personal situation. We
fully support Adrian and he looks
forward to watching his teammates
and coaches being successful during his absence.”
Minnesota Gov. Mark Dayton,
who spearheaded an effort to secure $477 million in public money
to help build the team a new stadium, and Sen. Al Franken were
among the many who called for the
Vikings to reconsider their position.
Peterson’s first court appearance
isn’t until Oct. 8, and with the
Vikings specifying that he must stay
away “until the legal proceedings
are resolved,” it appears there is a
possibility that he won’t play again
this year.
“After giving the situation additional thought, we have decided
this is the appropriate course of action for the organization and for
Adrian,” the Wilfs said. “We are always focused on trying to make the
right decision as an organization.
“We embrace our role — and the
responsibilities that go with it — as
a leader in the community, as a
business partner and as an organization that can build bridges with
our fans and positively impact this
great region. We appreciate and
value the input we have received
from our fans, our partners and the
community.”
Peterson has rushed for 10,190
yards and 86 touchdowns in his
NFL career. He won the MVP award
in 2012 after rushing for 2,097 yards
in his return from a torn ACL.

“Obviously, we’re going
to have to improve in the
running game and our
protection,” Franklin said.
“That’s going to be very,
very important. I think it
really comes down to our
communication and coordination up front, making sure that all five or six
guys, depending on the
protection and the play,
are all on same page and
working together and that
hasn’t been the case so far.
“That’s time, that’s
chemistry, that’s all those
things that have to happen.”
It won’t happen without
an overall grasp of the
program’s future, something he said he and his
staff possess.
“I’ve been a lot of places
where your focus is on the
game that week and that
you’re not really connecting with the freshmen and
you have a lot of turnover
with the freshmen,”
Franklin said. “I think
that’s so important to
keep those guys so involved and have fun and
enjoy themselves and also
see that they have bright
futures here. That’s really,
really important as well.”
A lot of communication
goes into solid line play,
and a little bravery is involved as well.
“It deals with really
being confident and
brave enough to make a
(blocking) call,” he said.
“Because if someone
makes the call and it’s
wrong, then there’s someone to blame.
I don’t want them to approach it that way. I want
them to make a decision
they think is a right decision for the team and
move on. If we make a
mistake we learn from it,
you man up to it, you own
it and you move forward.”
Despite the lackluster
rushing attack, Penn State
is ranked first in passing
offense (360.7 yards per
game) in the Big Ten (and
10th nationally) behind
Hackenberg, the conference leader in total offense with 1,103 yards.
A scoring defense that’s
ranked first in the Big Ten
and 11th nationally, and a
rushing defense that is
No. 2 in the conference
and No. 7 in the country
has provided momentum,
Franklin said.
“Our guys have done a
great job of having a sense
of urgency when we
needed it most,” he said.
“I think there are a lot of
things that factor into it.
It’s not like we’re just waiting till the fourth quarter
to call those plays.”
NOTES: A movement
on Facebook is setting up
what organizers are calling a “Joe-out” for Saturday’s home game against
Massachusetts. People
are urged to either dress
like late Penn State coach
Joe Paterno or display the
No. 409 to signify his
number of victories. The
NCAA restored Penn
State’s available scholarships to a full allotment of
85 last week and also
made the university eligible for the postseason.
Those were sanctions the
university had placed on
it after the Jerry Sandusky
child-abuse scandal. The
NCAA also removed 111
Paterno-led wins from the
record book.

ORIOLES MANAGER Buck Showalter was showered with champagne and beer after Baltimore clinched the AL East, and Nationals
catcher Wilson Ramos and pitcher Drew Storen congratulated each other after Washington won the NL East.
O’s, Nats clinch divisions
By The Associated Press
Baltimore and Washington became
the first teams in the major leagues to
wrap up division titles Tuesday night.
The Orioles clinched the AL East by
beating Toronto, and the Nationals won
the NL East by bating Atlanta.
ORIOLES 8, BLUE JAYS 2: Baltimore won
its first AL East crown since 1997, using
home runs by Steve Pearce and Jimmy
Paredes to beat Toronto.
With their ninth win in 10 games, the
Orioles clinched their second playoff
appearance in three years following a
run of 14 consecutive losing seasons. It
was Baltimore’s ninth AL East title and
only its second since 1983, when the
Orioles last won the World Series.
Ubaldo Jimenez (5-9) survived a rocky
start to limit the Blue Jays to two runs
and two hits over five innings.
NATIONALS 3, BRAVES 0: The Nationals
are again champions of the NL East,
wrapping up their second division title
in three years against the team that
knocked them out of the top spot last
season.
Tanner Roark pitched five-hit ball over
seven innings, Ian Desmond’s two-run
homer broke a scoreless tie, and the Nationals celebrated another trip to the
playoffs with a victory over Atlanta.
Atlanta (75-76) lost for the 11th time
in 14 games The Braves and are under
.500 for the first time since losing on
opening day. They fell 5½ behind Pittsburgh for the second wild card.
NATIONAL LEAGUE
BREWERS 3, CARDINALS 2: Carlos
Gomez walked, stole second and third
and scored the go-ahead run on a bloop
hit by rookie Hector Gomez in the 12th
inning as Milwaukee ended NL Centralleading St. Louis’ three-game winning
streak.
Brandon Kintzler (3-3) got the last out
in the 11th, and Francisco Rodriguez
closed for his 42nd save in 47 chances.
The third-place Brewers have won five
of six and are four games back of St.
Louis, which has a 2½-game lead on
Pittsburgh with 11 to go. The Brewers remained 1½ behind the Pirates for the
second wild card.
Gerardo Parra homered and rookie
Matt Clark’s sacrifice fly tied it against
Trevor Rosenthal in the ninth.
GIANTS 2, DIAMONDBACKS 1: Jake Peavy
had another strong outing, Buster Posey
homered, and San Francisco gained a
game in the NL West race with a victory
over Arizona.
The Giants are three games behind
first-place Los Angeles with 11 to play.
San Francisco snapped a three-game
losing streak and remained 2½ games
ahead of Pittsburgh for the NL’s top
wild-card spot.
Peavy (6-4), acquired from Boston on
July 26, allowed a run and five hits in 7 23 innings, striking out four and walking
one. In his last five starts, he is 3-0 and
has allowed a combined four runs.
Santiago Casilla pitched a perfect
ninth for his 16th save.
ROCKIES 10, DODGERS 4: Corey Dickerson homered, tripled and drove in four
runs, Tyler Matzek pitched into the sixth
inning by getting out of several tight
spots, and Colorado snapped a sevengame skid with a win over the NL Westleading Los Angeles Dodgers.
The Dodgers had Matzek (6-10) on the
ropes, but couldn’t produce the timely
hit. They stranded 10 runners to drop
1½ games behind Washington for the
best record in the National League.
CUBS 7, REDS 0: Jake Arrieta took a nohit bid into the eighth inning before giving up Brandon Phillips’ one-out double, the only blemish for the Chicago
pitcher in a win over Cincinnati.
Arrieta (9-5) struck out 13 and walked
one in his first career complete game.
He was five outs from the first no-hitter
at Wrigley Field in 42 years when
Phillips drove an 0-2 pitch to deep leftcenter, just beyond the desperate dive
of center fielder Matt Szczur.
METS 9, MARLINS 1: Wilmer Flores
homered twice and drove in six runs for
the second time this year, Ruben Tejada
capped a four-run fourth inning with a
two-run double, and New York routed
Miami to end a three-game skid.
Bartolo Colon (14-12) bounced back
from his shortest outing of the year to
pitch 7 2-3 innings for New York, allowing one run and a season-high 12 hits.
PADRES 5, PHILLIES 4: Alexi Amarista
had three hits, including a go-ahead
two-run homer, to lead San Diego over
Philadelphia.
Amarista’s two-out homer in the sixth
inning off A.J. Burnett (8-17) put the
Padres ahead 4-3. Amarista, who doubled in the second and singled in the
fourth, fell a triple short of the cycle
when he grounded out in the eighth.
AMERICAN LEAGUE
WHITE SOX 7, ROYALS 5: Kelvin Herrera
and Wade Davis both gave up runs for
the first time in nearly three months as
Kansas City’s dominant bullpen was
touched up in a loss to Chicago.
Davis replaced Herrera (3-3) with two
on in the seventh inning and walked
Jose Abreu to load the bases for Conor
Gillaspie, who cleared them with a triple
that gave Chicago a 7-5 lead.
That ended Herrera’s scoreless streak
at 30 2-3 innings. Also snapped was
Davis’ shutout streak of 31 2-3 innings, a
club record for a reliever.
The Royals remained 1½ games behind the Tigers, but still lead Seattle for
the second wild-card spot.
MARINERS 13, ANGELS 2: Mike Zunino’s
two-run double keyed a four-run fifth
inning, and Seattle climbed within a
game of the second AL wild-card spot
by routing the Los Angeles Angels.
One night after becoming the first
team to secure a playoff berth, the Angels lost for only the fourth time in 21
games. Their magic number for clinching the AL West dropped to two because
of Oakland’s loss to Texas.
The Athletics lead the wild-card race
by a game over Kansas City.
Carson Smith (1-0) earned his first
major league victory with two innings of
hitless relief. Jason Grilli (1-3) took the
loss.
RANGERS 6, ATHLETICS 3: Scott Kazmir
allowed a two-run homer to Jake
Smolinski, and shortstop Jed Lowrie
made an error that led to a pair of unearned runs as Oakland lost to lastplace Texas.
After strengthening their AL wild-card
lead by beating Seattle in the final two
games of a weekend series, the A’s
looked sloppy in the opener of a ninegame homestand and failed in their attempt to win three straight for the first
time since Aug. 7-9. The A’s remained
one game ahead of Kansas City for the
top wild-card spot.
RAYS 6, YANKEES 1: Derek Jeter was hit
on the arm by a Steve Geltz pitch in the
eighth inning of a loss to Tampa Bay, the
fifth time a New York batter has been hit
by a Rays pitcher in the past week.
Yankees manager Joe Girardi came
out of the dugout and was ejected after
New York’s captain was hit, and David
Phelps was ejected by plate umpire Rob
Drake in the bottom half after throwing
a tight pitch to Kevin Kiermaier.
INDIANS 4, ASTROS 2: Corey Kluber (169) struck out a career-high 14 in seven
innings, and Cleveland halted its fourgame losing streak by topping Houston.
Houston’s Jose Altuve broke Craig Biggio’s club record for hits in a season with
his 211th, a single in the seventh.
TWINS 4, TIGERS 3: Aaron Hicks hit a
two-out RBI single in the ninth inning,
and Minnesota rallied for a win over AL
Central-leading Detroit.
Trevor Plouffe drew a one-out walk
against Joe Nathan (4-4) and was replaced by pinch-runner Doug Bernier.
Bernier scored when center fielder Ezequiel Carrera dived for a line drive off
the bat of Kurt Suzuki and missed it, allowing the ball to roll to the wall.
Pirates beat Red Sox in Morton’s return
Continued from Page 13
Pittsburgh remained 1½ games ahead
of the Milwaukee Brewers for the NL’s
second wild card and moved within 2½
games of the St. Louis Cardinals, the NL
Central leaders. The Cardinals lost 3-2
to the Brewers at home in 12 innings on
Tuesday night.
Russell Martin hit a two-run homer in
the second inning off rookie Anthony
Ranaudo (3-3), and Starling Marte
added a solo shot in the sixth. Travis
Snider added an RBI single in the seventh against Tommy Layne.
Ranaudo lost his third straight start,
giving up three runs, four hits and three
walks in 5 2-3 innings. He has allowed
10 home runs in his first six starts.
“There was a bad pitch in there to
Martin and one to Marte,” Ranaudo
said. “If we look back at all my starts, the
common theme is home runs, and I obviously have to do a better job.”
Boston rookie Xander Bogaerts had
two hits to extend his hitting streak to
nine games.
The Red Sox, who are last in the AL
East a year after winning the World Series, were hitless in 10 at-bats with runners in scoring position and stranded
eight runners.
Boston’s Clay Buchholz (8-8, 5.19)
looks to win his fourth consecutive start
tonight when he faces Francisco Liri-
ano (5-10, 3.53). Liriano pitched a combined 14 shutout innings while winning
his last two starts.
NOTES: Jordy Mercer was a late
scratch because of lower back tightness.
Clint Barmes took his place in the starting lineup. ... Marte (bruised right
elbow) started for the first time since he
was hit by a pitch from Philadelphia
right-handed pitcher A.J. Burnett on
Thursday. … Boston was planning to recall center fielder Rusney Castillo from
Triple-A Pawtucket tonight, and he will
make his major league debut. The Red
Sox signed Castillo to a $72.5 million,
seven-year contract on Aug. 22, the
largest deal for a Cuban defector.
Continued from Page 13
Asked if he sees the
uptick in flags on his players symptomatic of a
league-wide crackdown
and he shrugged his
shoulders.
“I haven’t looked at it
globally,” Tomlin said.
“I’m not really familiar
with anything going on
outside of Pittsburgh right
now.”
And what Tomlin sees is
a group that’s trying to do
the right thing most of the
time even if Pittsburgh
leads the NFL in unnecessary roughness penalties
(three) and personal foul
facemasks (three).
Two of the unnecessary
roughness calls came in a
span of a minute during
last week’s 26-6 loss to
Baltimore. Safety Troy Polamalu was flagged when
officials ruled he hit
Ravens tight end Dennis
Pitta when Pitta was trying to complete a catch.
A couple of snaps later,
safety Mike Mitchell drew
a whistle for slamming
into Baltimore wide receiver Steve Smith at the
goal line. Replays showed
Mitchell — who was fined
several times last year for
dangerous hits while playing for Carolina — appeared to lead with his
shoulder.
The call on Mitchell set
up a short Baltimore
touchdown that made it
17-6 and the Steelers
never recovered.
“I don’t have major concerns about our ability to
respect the player-safety
initiative and lowering the
target and things of that
nature,” Tomlin said. “I
know that we were called
a couple of times in the
football game, but largely
in regards to our guys and
our approach to it, I have
very little concern.”
The Steelers had a similar rough start in 2012,
drawing 28 penalties
through the first three
games. They turned it
around quickly enough to
end up the seventh leastpenalized team that year.
While Tomlin allowed
keeping the referees from
reaching into their pockets would help his team
avoid the kind of sloppy
play that highlighted the
loss to Baltimore, he’s
more worried about a
rush defense that is allowing 170 yards per game.
Pressed on if it’s simply
bad tackling or players
being out of position,
Tomlin just laughed.
“It’s all something that
needs to be addressed and
quickly rectified,” he said.
Doing it against the Panthers won’t be easy. Carolina has one of the better
running back combinations in the league in
Jonathan Stewart and
DeAngelo
Williams.
Throw in quarterback
Cam Newton and Carolina is among the most
physical teams in the NFL.
“It starts with working to
minimize what they are
capable of doing in the
run game for us,” Tomlin
said. “We haven’t been our
best in that area.”
NOTES: Wide receiver
Lance Moore (groin) practiced on Monday and will
make his season debut if
he goes through the rest of
the week without a setback. ... Nose tackle Steve
McLendon is dealing with
a right shoulder injury
and is questionable.

U2 innovating
while entertaining
By CHRIS TALBOTT
AP Music Writer
Since U2 stunned the
music world by delivering a
surprise album at Apple’s
iPhone 6 unveiling and
making it available to a halfbillion iTunes users for free,
they’ve gotten an avalanche
of publicity.
But who’s listening to it?
The answer is still unclear.
Apple has not released official download rates for
“Songs of Innocence” and
U2’s manager, Guy Oseary,
also said he didn’t know
how many people had actually downloaded the album.
But that really wasn’t the
point: The album will live
on in users’ iCloud, and the
band envisions new listeners accessing it for the first
time for years to come.
“We’re quite happy that 7
percent of the planet has
this album, and they can
enjoy it at their leisure,” Oseary said.
The Rock and Roll Hall of
Famers’ move was hotly debated within the industry as
people tried to assess
whether it was another
stroke of genius from a
band that has been a topselling
juggernaut
for
decades or a ploy by an
aging group trying to make
a splash in a landscape that
has vastly changed since it
released its last album in
2009. Even though that
album went platinum, its
sales were a bit of a disappointment for the band.
Back then, frontman
Bono told The Associated
Press, “We felt that the
‘album’ is almost an extinct
species, and we (tried to)
create a mood and feeling,
and a beginning, middle
and an end. And I suppose
we’ve made a work that is a
bit challenging for people
who have grown up on a
diet of pop stars.”
That diet has gotten even
more extreme since then,
with album sales continuing to plummet industrywide, singles dominating
and streaming services including Spotify and even
iTunes helping to diminish
the impact of a cohesive art
form album.
So what is U2 trying to
achieve with its latest Apple
alliance? Oseary said the
band achieved one goal:
keeping the integrity of
“Songs” intact by releasing
it as an album. As far as U2’s
larger business goals?
“I don’t expect everyone
to get everything now,” Oseary said. “Maybe in a few
years things will start making sense or they won’t. But
that’s not our job. Our job is
to make sure the music is in
as many hands as possible.
This was an incredible opportunity to do that.”
U2 joined Jay-Z, Beyoncé
and a growing number of
artists who are working out
exclusive corporate deals
and employing guerrilla ad
campaigns rather than
moving the album through
the typical marketing plan
of singles release and slow
build to launch date.
Like Jay-Z and his Samsung partnership to launch
“Magna Carta ... Holy Grail”
last year, U2 and Interscope
Records get handsomely
paid — something that’s no
longer guaranteed from
album sales alone — and
the money comes on up
front. Apple continues a
high-profile relationship
with a longtime business
and philanthropic partner,
plus earns more credit for
innovation. Fans get something for free and those who
don’t want it can just ignore
it.
“I applaud each of those
artists creating a stir and not
just falling into a predictable marketing strategy,” longtime producer and
Sony Music Entertainment
executive Clive Davis said.
“I think in the case of Beyoncé and Jay-Z, they had
successful results triggering
so much extra media attention and coverage because
they didn’t do things in a
formulaic kind of manner.”
But there may be penalties to pay later if physical
retailers refuse to stock the
album, as Target did when
Beyoncé surprise-dropped
her self-titled LP exclusively
on iTunes last December for
a week (it was still a top-seller worldwide). And there
are still lots of questions.
Will fans now buy a physical
copy, released Oct. 14? Will
the band lose some of its
cool? Even the unflappable
Jay-Z suffered backlash
when the app he and Samsung used to distribute his
album to 1 million customers cataloged user information, and there have
already been complaints
from some who didn’t want
a U2 album on their cloud
— even as a gift.
Rob Beckham, an agent
with William Morris Endeavor Entertainment who
handles some of country
music’s biggest stars, thinks
any negatives that might
emerge have already been
offset. All acts suffer a cooling of interest when their
careers reach into the
decades, he said, and the
trick is to find ways to rekindle interest and build new
audiences. A win for U2, for
sure, but in some ways he
feels the excitement over a
move will inspire the industry.
“People still have to have a
passion for the music,”
Beckham said. “They have
to have a passion to buy it,
the passion to steal it or the
passion to copy it. To me,
the best part of this is
they’re getting new music
into the marketplace. I
think the hardest part is
going to be at some point if
record labels are not able to
sell music and make money,
then you’re going to see a lot
fewer artists and a lot less
music in the marketplace.”
There’s no question the
album’s arrival got the
meter moving in a year
that’s been light on buzzy
releases.
Reports surfaced earlier
that the band would not release an album until 2015
after teasing its imminent
arrival earlier this year. Now,
it will be one of 2014’s most
memorable musical moments.
Oseary declined to release
financial details of the deal
and said he was not privy to
Apple’s spending on its advertising campaign.
The band is focused on
next month’s deluxe edition
release, which will include
four unreleased songs and
acoustic versions of album
tracks, and he said they’re
not ready to talk about the
forthcoming album “Songs
of Experience” or speculation that a tour announcement is imminent.
He encouraged everyone
to think differently.
“I think it’s great for
music,” he said. “Someone
right now may have seen
this happen and they may
decide they want to do
something amazing with
artwork or with lyrics or
something amazing with a
video or photos. We don’t
know what someone else
will innovate, but it’s great
to see something exciting
happen and see big companies launch something with
new music.”

road film about two drugusing, long-haired bikers,
Wyatt (Fonda) and Billy
(Hopper), who go on a crosscountry odyssey to New Orleans in search of personal
freedom and easy money.
Four motorcycles were created for the movie, but only
one is known to have survived. It was used in the climactic crash scene in which
Fonda is thrown off the bike.
“Three of the motorcycles
were stolen, even before the
movie was released, which
was a sign of the overwhelming power that these motorcycles had,” said Haggerty.
“They were never recovered.”
After the film was finished,
Hopper told Haggerty to
keep it. Haggerty rode it
often, an experience he
likened to “going out with
Marilyn Monroe.” Parting
with it was like having a
“child finally getting married
and moving away and starting a new life on their own.”
That new life was at the National Motorcycle Museum
in Anamosa, Iowa, run by a
friend of Haggerty’s.
When the museum decided to sell it last year, Eisenberg jumped at the chance to
buy it.
An “Easy Rider” fan since
childhood, Eisenberg ran the
Thunder Road House in West
Hollywood with Fonda and
Hopper in the 1990s until it
burned down due to an electrical fire.
He had for years inquired
about buying the bike from
Associated Press
NEW YORK — The customized Captain America
chopper Peter Fonda rode in
“Easy Rider” has come to
symbolize the counterculture of the 1960s. Now it’s for
sale.
The auction house Profiles
in History told The Associated Press that it estimates the
Harley-Davidson will bring
$1 million to $1.2 million at
its Oct. 18 sale being held online and at its galleries in Calabasas, Calif.
The seller is Michael Eisenberg, a California businessman who once co-owned a
Los Angeles motorcyclethemed restaurant with
Fonda and “Easy Rider” costar Dennis Hopper. Eisenberg bought it last year from
Dan Haggerty, perhaps best
known for his roles in the
“Grizzly Adams” TV show
and movies, who was in
charge of keeping the custom-designed bike humming during the 1969 movie’s
filming.
The gleaming stars-andstripes panhead chopper
with chromed hardtail frame
is accompanied by three letters of authenticity. One is
signed by the National Motorcycle Museum, where it
was displayed for 12 years.
Another is from Fonda and a
third from Haggerty.
The bike features a forward-angled front wheel and
handlebars, fishtail exhaust
pipes and a teardrop-shaped
gas tank where the protagonists stashed their cash. It
was designed with input
Haggerty and then the museum.
“I always wanted to own it,”
he said. “But once it sunk in
that I actually had it, then I
realized how important it
was.”
He added: “The public
needs to see it. It’s that icon-
ic. It needs to be on a podium.”
Eisenberg said he plans to
donate
“a
significant
amount” of the proceeds to
the American Humane Association to honor Fonda’s involvement in the organization.

Debit cards are by far
my least favorite type of

The fraud protection is,
at best, shaky.
But beyond that, there is
the temptation to use a

— to purchase
everything

instead of

STEP 1: To do this, you
need a credit card with a
$0 balance. This should be
a MasterCard or Visa that
has no annual fee.
STEP 2: Transfer money
into this account. Do this
by check or online as you
would if you did have a
balance and were simply
sending in the money to
pay it off. This will result
in your account showing a
credit balance. If you send
in $500, you will see a
credit balance of -$500 on
your next statement or
online when you check
your account. This is your
money in the bank. And,
yes, it is perfectly legal to
have a credit balance on a
credit card account
STEP 3: When you shop
online, at a store, or visit a
restaurant — anywhere
you normally depend on
your debit card because
the money comes straight
out of your bank account
— use this DIY “debit
card” instead.
STEP 4: In two or three
days, the amount of your
purchase will show up on
your account as a charge.
Your credit balance will be
reduced by that amount
with no fees or additional
charges. If your purchase
was for $3.73, your $500
credit balance will be reduced accordingly to
$496.27.
STEP 5: Watch your account as you would any
account. If you see a
fraudulent charge, you
have all the protection of
federal law that regulates
credit cards. Call customer service without
delay.
STEP 6: When your credit balance runs low, deposit additional funds.
STEP 7: If you need to get
your credit balance refunded, call customer
service with your request.
By law, they must send it
to you in full within seven
days of your request.
There you go. And, yes,
it is brilliant.

How to teach kids about
credit at a young age
By SASCHA ZUGER
FamilyFun Magazine
Shortly after his sixth birthday, I brought my son,
Nakoa, to the toy store, a $15
gift card clutched in his hot
little hand. As always, we
headed straight for the trucks
and trains aisle. There, an
endcap display stopped him
in his tracks. A large, shiny
construction-themed train
set beckoned. He threw his
arms around the box.
“This. THIS!” he crowed,
rapturous. I gently pointed
out the price tag. “It’s $69.95,
baby. You have only $15.” I
helped him tuck it back on
the shelf. “It would take a
very long time to save up that
much money.”
“I could do it. I could save. I
can be patient,” he nodded,
with a final hug of the box. “I
want this.” So began a flurry
of money-scheming. Nakoa
scoured the sofa and car for
change.
He brought me endless
Diet Cokes, each five-cent
deposit bringing him closer
to his dream. He begged for
chores until the lower 3½ feet
of our house sparkled. Weeks
turned into months. Then,
with an influx of cash from
Grandma for a great report
card, it was finally time.
Back at the store, he
skipped ahead. As we rounded the aisle, I was gut-kicked
by the sight of a Lego-filled
endcap. The train sets were
gone. They were all gone. We
flew through the stages of
grief in a blur, as a store manager broke the news that the
toy was not merely sold out,
but discontinued. There was
nothing to be done. The train
had left the station. Too devastated even to think about
other toys, Nakoa piped up
as we left, “I wish you could
just buy things, then pay the
money back later.”

teach him the concept early?
As a kid, I’d never learned
about finances. As a teen, I
racked up huge credit-card
debt before I’d ever heard of a
credit score.
We sat at the kitchen table,
and I explained how credit
worked. I told him how,
when I didn’t have the cash
to buy a car, the bank lent me
money, because I was a safe
risk.
Nakoa had been responsible with money and amassed
decent savings through hard
work.
So, I said, he was ready to
get a little credit, too. I’d start
him at a score of 5, the highest in our new system. If he
maintained a 4 or 5, and saw
something important to him
he couldn’t afford, I would
extend him credit and he
could pay me back.
If he continued to be responsible and repay me
promptly, he would stay at 5.
But if he started pestering me
for things, his score would go
down — as a real credit score
would if you keep requesting
higher spending limits.
Nakoa was thrilled: the objects of his desire were now
within reach.
He just had to remember
that all his actions affected
his score. If we had behavior
issues, I might ping his rating
down a half-point, I explained. If he owed me
money but depleted his assets to buy a slushy, it might
get lowered again. If he wanted something very pricey, he
needed to push his score as
high as he could before asking.
Nakoa is now 11 years old.
Though trains were long ago
replaced by the latest Nike
soccer cleats, we still avoid
arguments in shops. Sure,
clerks sometimes raise an
eyebrow when they overhear
him say, “I can get this, right?
My credit score is 4.5.” But
that’s OK. I feel I’ve helped
my son get a head start on
money smarts.

PEOPLE
Key to being well-liked is
to make yourself likable
DEAR ABBY: I’m a 15-yearold girl. When I’m with the
high school group of kids at
my church, I try to extend
myself and talk, but they
never reciprocate much.
I always
have to try
to think of
something
to say and
be careful I
don’t embarrass myself. Especially
around
guys, I feel
awkward
and selfconscious.

never talk
to me first, either. I don’t
know if I’m doing something
wrong or being too careful.
I’m an only child. I get
along pretty well with adults,
but I have a hard time with
kids. I heard you have a
booklet about these issues.
If you think it might help
me, how can I order it? —
UNPOPULAR IN SACRAMENTO
DEAR
ABBY
DEAR UNPOPULAR: Part
of your problem may be that
you’re an only child, which
can be isolating. If you spend
most of your time with
adults, it’s understandable
that you are less comfortable
with people your own age.
But don’t let it stop you from
trying to be friendly. If guys
don’t speak to you first,
they’re probably feeling as
awkward as you are. To smile
and say hello is not being
pushy.
My booklet “How to Be
Popular” is filled with suggestions for polishing social
skills. It covers a variety of social situations and is meant
for people of all ages.
To order, send your name
and address, plus check or
money order for $7 (U.S.
funds) to Dear Abby Popularity Booklet, P.O. Box 447,
Mount Morris, IL 610540447. Shipping and handling
are included in the price.
There are tips for becoming
the kind of person other people find interesting, attractive and want to know better.
(If parents, teachers and clergy know someone needing
help in this regard, it might
make an inexpensive gift that
could help change the course
of that person’s life.)
The key to being well-liked
by both sexes is: Be kind. Be
honest. Be tactful. Don’t be
afraid to give someone a
compliment if you think it’s
deserved. If you think you’re
not beautiful (or handsome),
be well-groomed, tastefully
dressed, conscious of your
posture. (People who stand
tall and smile project selfconfidence.)
If you’re not a “brain,” try
harder. If you are smarter
than most, don’t be a knowit-all. Ask other people what
they think and encourage
them to share their opinions.
If you’re not a good athlete,
be a good sport.
Think for yourself, but respect the rules. Be generous
with kind words and affectionate gestures, but respect
yourself and your family values always. If you think
“putting out” will make boys
like you, forget it. (It won’t
work, and later you’ll be glad
you didn’t.) If you need help,
ask God. If you don’t need
anything, thank God!
DEAR ABBY: I’m a 27-yearold male, and I have no clue
how to read women’s subtle
interest cues, if they ever display any. I’d like to think they
have, given that I put in at
least two days a week at the
gym working with weights.
Since you are a woman,
could you please be so kind
as to give this man a clue
what to look for? It’s driving
me nuts! — AVAILABLE IN
ILLINOIS
DEAR AVAILABLE: The
most obvious clues that a
woman finds you attractive
are eye contact and a smile.
That’s your opening to make
conversation. The rest is up
to you!

Thicke says he didn’t
write hit ‘Blurred Lines’
By The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — Robin Thicke’s attorney
says the estate of Marvin Gaye exploited the
singer’s “moment of personal vulnerability”
in an attempt to prove that the hit “Blurred
Lines” was a ripoff of a Gaye hit.
In a deposition, obtained Tuesday by The
Associated Press, Thicke says Pharrell
Williams did much of the writing on the
Grammy Award-nominated song and says,
“I was just lucky enough to be there when
he wrote it.”
Thicke also says he was high on a mix of
prescription drugs and alcohol during the
writing of the song and in interviews following its release. Attorney Howard King says
lawyers for the Gaye estate are just trying to
prop up their lawsuit that says the 2013 international hit was stolen by writers, including Thicke and Williams.

DALLAS, Ore. — The young homeless
man who accompanied Miley Cyrus to the
MTV Video Music Awards arrived 45 minutes late for his arraignment on a charge
that he violated his probation in Oregon.
Polk County Judge Monte Campbell was
just about ready to wrap up the court calendar Tuesday when Jesse Helt’s lawyer an-
nounced that his client was downstairs.
Helt didn’t enter a plea and he’s due back
in court next month. He declined to speak
with a reporter and flipped off the media as
he was driven away from the courthouse.
Helt gained worldwide attention last
month when Cyrus let him accept her
award for video of the year. It was later
learned that Helt was wanted in Oregon for
a probation violation stemming from a 2010
arrest.

LOS ANGELES — Jewel is planning an
album for release next fall. But for now, she’s
giving away her latest song for free.
The once-homeless singer-songwriter
wrote “Home to Me” to support the ReThink
public housing initiative. She unveiled the
track online and performed it in Los Angeles on Tuesday for an intimate audience of
public housing administrators and residents.
Jewel crowd-sourced further inspiration
for the song through an online contest that
drew hundreds of essays and poems about
what home means. She chose the title of the
track from one of the submitted compositions. The 40-year-old entertainer has been
busy since announcing her impending divorce from husband Ty Murray in July.

Garden, landing behind German lines in the Netherlands. (After initial success,
the Allies were beaten back
by the Germans.)
In 1954, the novel “Lord of
the Flies” by William Golding
was first published by Faber
& Faber of London.
In 1964, the James Bond
movie “Goldfinger,” starring
Sean Connery, premiered in
London. The fantasy sitcom
“Bewitched,” starring Elizabeth Montgomery, debuted
on ABC-TV.
In 1971, citing health reasons, Supreme Court Justice

world.
Ten years ago: President
Vladimir Putin said Russia
was “seriously preparing” for
pre-emptive strikes against
terrorists, as Chechen warlord Shamil Basayev took responsibility for a school
hostage-taking and other attacks that had claimed more
than 430 lives. San Francisco’s Barry Bonds hit the 700th
home run of his career, joining Babe Ruth (714) and
Hank Aaron (755) as the only
players to reach the milestone (San Francisco beat
San Diego, 4-1).
Five years ago: President
Barack Obama abruptly canceled a long-planned missile
shield for Eastern Europe, replacing a Bush-era project
that was bitterly opposed by
Russia with a plan he contended would better defend
against a growing threat of
Iranian missiles. An 18-yearold man armed with an ax,
knives and Molotov cocktails
attacked his high school in
Ansbach, Germany, injuring
nine students and a teacher
before being shot and arrested.
One year ago: Engineers
declared success as the Costa
Concordia cruise ship was
pulled completely upright
during an unprecedented,
19-hour operation to wrench
it from its side where it had
capsized off Tuscany in 2012.

Notice of Public Hearing
Interested citizens are invited to attend a public hearing on Wednesday, September
24, 2014 at 9:30 A.M. in the
Commissioner’s Hearing Room
on the second floor of the Indiana County Courthouse located at 825 Philadelphia
Street in Indiana, Pennsylvania. The hearing is being conducted to discuss the development and planning of Indiana County’s 2014 Non-entitlement and Competitive Community Development Block
Grant applications.
Indiana County’s 2014
Non-entitlement Community
Development Block Grant allocation amount is $261,099.00.
Indiana County’s Competitive
application(s) cannot exceed
$750,000.00 per application
and can only be for all non-entitlement municipalities and
entitlement municipalities under 10,000 in population.
An eligible project for either
funding must meet one of
three national objectives:
benefit low-moderate income
persons, aid in the prevention
or elimination of blight, and/or
address an imminent health or
safety threat. Seventy percent
of funds spent must directly
benefit low-moderate income
persons.
The types of activities eligible for Community Development Block Grant funding are:
water; sanitary sewer and
storm sewer systems; housing
rehabilitation; public/ community facilities; recreation facilities; public services; street/road improvements; parking
facilities; historic preservation; removal of architectural
barriers; solid waste facilities;
code enforcement; economic
development; acquisition/ relocation; clearance; disposition; utilities (other than water/sewer)
and
administration.
In the event these activities
will demolish or convert any
low-moderate income housing
units, the units will be replaced on a one-for-one basis
by type, size, condition and location. It is not anticipated at
this time that any demolition
or conversion will occur.
The County of Indiana does
not discriminate in regards to
race, color, religion, sex, national origin, disability or age

BRIDGE ♥♣♠♣
WEDNESDAY,
SEPTEMBER
17,
2014
by Phillip Alder
WE ALL LIVE
AND LEARN
DAILY
James A. Froude,
an English historian
who died in 1894,
said, “As we advance
in life, we learn the
limits
of
our
abilities.”
It is true that
children think they
know much more
than they do. As we
age, we realize that
our parents and
teachers weren’t as
limited
as
we
thought. And many
feel that a day
without
learning
something new is a
day wasted.
Bridge
always
seems to present
new ideas. Take
today’s deal as an
example. South is in
six diamonds. How
should he handle the
061
Help
Wanted
trump
suit
to
maximize
the
chance of losing at
most one trick? And
suppose a wheel has
come off and South is
in seven diamonds.
Then what should he
do?
In the auction,
North might have
rebid three spades,
which would have
shown only two-card
support
because
with three spades he
would
have
responded
two
spades, not one notrump. But with
length and strength
in the rounded suits,
rebidding three notrump was sensible.
The only problem
revolves around the
trump suit. If South
must play it for no
losers, he has two
choices: Cash his ace
(hoping East has the
singleton king) or
lead dummy’s queen
(hoping West has the
singleton
jack).
Mathematically, they
are equal.
In six diamonds,
though, I thought the
best play was to cash
the ace first. But the
free
software
package SuitPlay
(suitplay.com) claims
that starting with
South’s nine is better.
If West plays low,
declarer ducks in the
dummy. And if that
loses to East’s jack,
South cashes his ace
next. The probability
of success is 81.3
percent. One lives
and learns.

It’s time to
realize
your
potential. Keep your
outlook realistic, and
don’t spread yourself
too thin. A focused
approach, combined
with your talent and
determination, will
help you make big
strides toward your
dreams, hopes and
wishes. Keep your
eye on the big
picture.
VIRGO (Aug. 23Sept. 22) — Think
outside the box. You
will be pleasantly
surprised by a new or
unusual
venture
presented to you.
Don’t be afraid to try
something new.
LIBRA (Sept. 23Oct. 23) — Slow and
steady will be your
best approach. You
will be frustrated if
you take on too many
projects.
Nothing
will be accomplished
to your satisfaction if
you
don’t
pay
attention to detail.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24Nov. 22) — An
unexpected change
will result in an
exciting
venture.
Find a way to
incorporate the old
and the new into
your plans for the
future, to better suit
your needs.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov.
23-Dec. 21) —You will
need to take good
care of financial
matters. A joint
venture will have an
unfavorable
outcome. An indepth look at your
documents
and
records will ensure
that nothing has
been overlooked.
CAPRICORN (Dec.
22-Jan. 19) — A
personal
relationship
will
cause dissatisfaction.
Don’t get sidetracked
from
your
professional duties.
Once you are outside
the workplace, you
will have more time
to do some soulsearching.

your professional
responsibilities.

accept the changes
that lie ahead.
CANCER (June 21July 22) — Keep busy
and avoid trouble. If
you are too idle, you

personal
problems that you
cannot fix. Avoid
emotional scenes by
pursuing your own
projects.
LEO (July 23-Aug.
22) — You can show
generosity without
opening your wallet.
Offer your time and
advice rather than
money.
Your
financial situation
will deteriorate if you
are too free with your
cash.
