‘Fla. loophole’back in target

Congress to debate proposal to reinforce interstate concealed-carrylaws Many state residents use bizarre Florida law to own handgunsWith Congress set to de-bate a bill that would forcestates to accept concealed-carry handgun permitsfrom other states, the au-thor of gun-control legisla-tion in Pennsylvaniaclaims the measure woulddevastate urban cities in-cluding Philadelphia.

The National Right-to-Carry Reciprocity Act,sponsored by U.S. Rep. CliffStearns of Florida, does nothonor the restrictions ofeach state specifying whocan have a permit — some-thing law enforcement of-ficials and lawmakers inPhiladelphia have foughthard against in recentyears. A House committeeapproved the bill lastweek, setting it up for afull vote in the House.

“If you had national rec-iprocity giving any morecredence or support to the‘Florida loophole,’ [it]would just be devastatingnot only to Philadelphia,but you would see the kindof problems you have inPhiladelphia begin to takeplace all across the coun-try,” state Sen. Larry Far-nese, D-Philadelphia, said.

Law enforcement offi-cials say the so-called Flori-da loophole has con-tributed to Philadelphia’sgun epidemic. Farnese’sproposal to eliminate theloophole has had littlemovement in Harrisburg,but he said it could gainsteam in the spring.

“You have a new attor-ney general’s election veryshortly. ... A major issue inthis election has got to beclosing this loophole,” hesaid.

City Council and othermunicipalities have voicedopposition to the Reciproc-ity Act, but gun rights lob-byists are pushing hard tooverpower that.

“You have a newattorney general’selection veryshortly ... A majorissue in thiselection has got tobe closing thisloophole.”FARNESE

Boxer Simon “One Punch”Carr ironically discoveredhis passion for helpingyouth while serving a nine-year prison sentence forkilling a 13-year-old.

It happened when a cor-rectional officer needed togive his troubled son awake-up call. “He put meon the phone with himand the kid actuallystraightened out. That waswhen I first knew I had apurpose,” said Carr, whogrew up in Grays Ferry.

Upon his release, Carrdid charity work andthrew youth events to pro-vide a safe space for and aplatform for budding

singers, artists and poets.“The same community I

helped destroy and dam-age, I wanted to come backand repair,” he said.

After six years of spend-ing his freedom helpingyouth, Carr, 35, has decid-ed to bring his life full cir-cle and step back in thering. The pro boxer hopes

for mid-January return.“There are still somethings I want to achieve be-fore it’s over,” he said.

Still, Carr said boxingdoesn’t compare to his oth-er work. He hopes to starta formal mentoring pro-gram for kids who wouldotherwise be on thestreets. “Boxing is greatand winning is great, butat the end of the day, it’sshallow,” he said. “When Iwas in that cell, I thought,“What would my legacybe? What would I leave theworld?’”

Carr’s childhood was roughby any measure – his dadcommitted suicide the dayhe was born. His motherdied when he was 5.

He found refuge in the box-ing world. He enjoyed ameteoric rise from the earlyage of 12, then saw it comecrashing down when, at 19with a 40-3 record, he wasjailed for killing a kid hethought was breaking intohis grandmother’s house.Now Carr focuses on youthadvocacy and a fashionline, Punchline Clothing,still in its brand-establish-ment phase.

Can Romney step out ofCain’s growing shadow?

As race to unseat Obama heats up, front-runners findthemselves neck and neck in major Iowa opinion poll

Herman Cain, foreground,has lately come to eclipseformer Gov. Mitt Romney.

Republican White Househopefuls Herman Cain andMitt Romney are in a tightrace in Iowa, which kicksoff next year’s presidentialnominating contests, ac-cording to a closelywatched opinion poll pub-lished at the weekend.

The poll conducted forThe Des Moines Registershowed Cain, a conserva-tive businessman, with thesupport of 23 percent ofRepublicans surveyed.Romney, a former Massa-chusetts governor, had 22percent, and Texas Rep.Ron Paul 12 percent in therace to challenge Demo-cratic President BarackObama in the November2012 election.

Texas Gov. Rick Perry,who has stumbled in de-bates and on the campaigntrail after a fast start, scoredonly 7 percent support.

The Iowa caucuses willtake place on Jan. 3, thefirst of the state-by-statecontests to choose a partypresidential nominee.

The poll showed Min-nesota Rep. Michele Bach-

mann fading after runningneck and neck with Rom-ney in the June Iowa poll.Bachmann dropped to 8percent and fourth placein the new poll.

Neither Cain nor Rom-ney has spent much timecampaigning in Iowa. Rom-ney, who has just four paidstaff and a consultant in thestate, has rarely visited Iowasince a second-place finishin the caucuses in 2008wounded his campaign.

Iowa has a large bloc ofconservative voters dis-trustful of Romney’s pastsupport of abortion rightsand a Massachusettshealth care overhaul thatwas a precursor of Oba-ma’s federal law. REUTERS

sity of New Hampshirethis month showed that62 percent of residentsoppose repealing thesame-sex marriage law —including a plurality oflikely voters. REUTERS

While young Americansunder the age of 30 are thehardest hit by unemploy-ment, there is a glimmerof hope for one particulargroup of them: MBA gradu-ates.

Recent research showsthat the class of 2011 hasmuch better employmentprospects than the last twoclasses before it. Accordingto a report by the GraduateManagement AdmissionCouncil, more companiesare now hiring, and moreof them are recruiting oncampus.

Data show that 57 per-cent of graduates who

earned an MBA in 2011 re-ported getting job offers —a figure similar to the pre-recession rate. The surveypolled 1,509 employers in51 countries.

And only 4 percent ofcompanies surveyed re-ported that they’re notplanning to hire this year.That's an improvementfrom 8 percent in 2010 and13 percent in 2009.

According to the report,the proportion of compa-nies with plans to hire newMBA graduates in 2011 hasincreased across all indus-tries, most notably in themanufacturing, nonprof-

it/government, high tech-nology, finance/accounting,and products and servicessectors of the marketplace.

The demand is expectedto be highest for peoplewith MBAs in finance andaccounting. Health careand pharmaceutical, con-sulting, and high technolo-gy industries are also inhigh demand.

“The post-recession re-covery is gaining momen-tum as companies turnmore toward growth,” saidthe report.

Western powers wouldcause an “earthquake” inthe Middle East if they in-tervened in Syria, PresidentBashar al-Assad said in aninterview published yester-day, after protesters de-manded outside protectionfrom a crackdown that haskilled 3,000 people.

Syrian officials were tohold more talks in Qatarwith delegates of the ArabLeague, which wants toconvene a dialogue in Cairobetween the Syrian authori-ties and their opponents.

The League’s two-weekdeadline for the planneddialogue to start expiredyesterday, with Assadshowing no signs of easingthe crackdown, which is

drawing increasing inter-national outrage and criti-cism even from previouslycautious Arab countries.

Syria, as Assad noted inhis interview with Britain’sSunday Telegraph, sits atthe heart of the volatileMiddle East, where it bor-ders Israel, Lebanon,Turkey, Iraq and Jordan.

“It is the faultline, and ifyou play with the ground,you will cause an earth-quake,” he said. “Do youwant to see anotherAfghanistan, or tens ofAfghanistans?”

Assad’s remarks signaldetermination to hang on-to power against a popularuprising that repressionhas failed to crush. REUTERS

In honor of Halloween,let’s check in with Vam-pire-in-Chief Robert Pattin-son, shall we? (Tune in to-morrow for an update onDirector of Zombie SpecialProjects Lindsay Lohan —we just couldn’t handleher today.)

While promoting“Breaking Dawn: Part 1” ata press conference over theweekend, Pattinson specu-lated that he and co-star/girlfriend Kristen Stew-art may already be mar-ried. “The wedding scene’sfunny because we used areal priest,” said the actor,according to Us-Magazine.com. “So techni-cally we are already mar-ried because he did all thethings you would do in anormal ceremony. So wedon’t have a civil union inlaw, but I guess in thechurch we are actuallymarried.”

We suspect the churchwouldn’t agree, but thenagain, it’s not really our go-to marriage dictionarythese days. If someoneunited Heidi Montag andSpencer Pratt in holy-hellmatrimony, no doubtthey’d sign off on this one.

Time off forTimberlakeJustin Timberlake might beavoiding the spotlight fora little while, he warns.“I’ve spent a lot of timefeeling like I needed tovalidate so much of who Iwas by what I did,” hetells Esquire magazine. “Ithink you can work andwork and work and neverreally live.” So what isTimberlake planning todo instead? “The plan is tohave no plan,” he says.

“I’ll probably travel, butI’d rather be spontaneous.I feel like I’ve earned atleast a little bit of time todo that.”

Sandy’s nurserysteps upThe bar has been raisedwhen it comes toshopping for SandraBullock’s infant son, Louis,after the actress’s agentspicked up a $14,000 AndyWarhol painting at acharity auction and gaveit as a gift to the youngboy, according toHollyscoop. “I want tothank Kevin Huvane

and Bryan Lourd for notbeing cheap f—s and gift-ing my son with his firstWarhol,” Bullock joked atthe event.

Halloween getstricky for UsherUsher ran afoul of a fellowcitizen after parking in ahandicap space in Atlantarecently, according toTMZ. His black SUV wasstopped outside aHalloween costumeshop when an unidenti-fied woman startedscreaming at him. Afterbeing ignored for toolong, the woman turned

violent, lunging at thesinger and hiscompanions.

Kelly Clarksonstill lookingKelly Clarkson wants toclarify that she is not alesbian. “I’m from a smalltown, so everyone’s mar-ried with children orabout to have children,”she says during a visit to“The View.” “That’s whypeople think I’m gay —because they’re like, ‘Whyaren’t you married?’ AndI’m like, ‘It doesn’thappen for everyone rightoff the bat!’”

Talking points

Halloweenweekend with DrewCops were called toDrew Barrymore’splace in HollywoodHills over the week-end because herHalloween party gottoo loud, accordingto TMZ’s sources.Absolutely nothing

of note — they showedup around midnight andshe promised to quietdown. It might, howev-er, be the only time she

surfaces in gossipcolumns until 2013,and we wanted toput it out there:We love Drew Bar-

rymore, andwant in on herrowdy Halloweenparties.

Cops called to Nicki’sIn less adorable calling-the-cops news, policewere summoned to NickiMinaj’s place this week-end when the singer gotin an argument with ahousekeeper, accordingto TMZ. Minaj had previ-ously fired a maid whoworked at her home,then grew upset whenthe woman returned towork Friday. When themaid said she wouldn’tbe “treated like an ani-mal,” Minaj reportedlyflipped out, shouting,“I’ll show you how to

treat someone like ananimal. Get the f— outof my house.”

Best part here? It wasn’t the same employ-ee she had fired. This,Nicki, is exactly whatthe term “epic fail” wasinvented for.

As Regis Philbin prepares totape his last episode of“Live! With Regis and Kelly”on Nov. 18, he’s not the on-ly one getting ready to ad-just to more time at home.

“It sends chills downJoy’s spine to even thinkabout it,” Philbin says of hissoon-to-be-leisure time withhis wife.

“Regis is not going to re-tire,” pipes in Joy, who waswith Regis to promote Pfiz-er’s True Advil Stories cam-paign. “He’s just moving onto do something else be-cause a live show every dayis quite a commitment.This will give us the chanceto do a little traveling — allof our family are still in LosAngeles but we always haveto be back Sunday night.This’ll be a big change forus.”

It is indeed a big changefor Joy and her 80-year-oldhusband, who holds theGuinness World Record forthe most hours on televi-sion — 16,540 and a half!

“I know it’s impeding,”Regis says of his finalepisode. “So many peopleare coming up and sayingwhatever they want to sayto me, and it’s touching. Ina way I can say that I amnot looking forward to it,but in another way it has tohappen. It is bittersweet.”

The decision to end hisrun, Regis says, came after“talking about it with Joyover the years.” And whenit was time to make the an-nouncement, which he didon-air in January, he wascareful to inform his co-workers — even co-hostKelly Ripa — only a half-hour before taping started,

so that the news wouldn’tleak and rumors wouldn’tstart.

As for the final show,“Regis is in for a lot of sur-prises,” according to Joy. “Idon’t know specifically, butI know they have requestedtapes and anything goingback, so I know this is go-ing to go back a long time.”

“I am sure [‘Live!’s execu-tive producer Michael] Gel-man is going to build it intoan extravaganza,” Regisadds.

Regis gears up for goodbye

In less than a month the veteran talk show host willbid farewell to his morning show But he’s not retiring

Scott, Cherry Hill

On I found a school that met

my needs, so I got a degree & landed

my dream job.

Playing the hero in “InTime” — a sci-fi ad-venture set in aworld where people

stop aging at 25 and have toearn time to stay alive —has given Justin Timberlakea lot of chances to thinkabout time, including beingstuck with a certain look. “Ilook back as a lot of myyounger years have beendocumented and I can hon-estly say that I would notlike to revisit,” says the mu-sician-turned-actor. “So I’mperfectly fine with aging.”

Of course he says thatnow, at age 30 — andplaying a convincing 25on screen. Maybe he’llchange his tune afteranother 10 or 20 years.But for now, movieslike “In Time” arehelping keep himyoung, especially con-sidering all the actioninvolved. “On top ofbeing a really rich sto-ry filled with lots ofthings, I got to live outa lot of boyhood fan-tasies in this movie —shooting guns and get-ting to learn how tostunt drive,” he says,grinning.

Given the time-sen-sitive nature of thefilm, there was, ofcourse, lots of run-

ning involved — which wasfine for Timberlake, but notso much his co-star, Aman-da Seyfried, who did mostof the chases in high heels.It was a necessity for theplot as well as for practicalreasons, though, Timber-lake jokes. “We debated ac-tually in the middle of ascene her taking the heelsoff and just running with-out them, but she wouldhave gotten lost in theframe,” he says, teasing his

diminutive leading lady.One pitfall of high-

concept actionthrillers is that theycan be overly exposi-tional, and that wassomething Timber-lake was keen towatch out for, going sofar as to consult An-drew Niccol, the film’swriter, director andproducer, about par-ing down the script.“If there was any-thing, I felt like wewould take lines outbecause it’s alwaysnicer when you canplay out a scene andit can read withoutdialogue,” Timber-lake says. Savesmore time for theshooting and driv-

ing, at least.

The OccupyWall StreetconnectionA major theme of “InTime” is taking on an elitethat controls all theresources in society —something that coinciden-tally finds resonance withthe current Occupy WallStreet movement as thefilm hit theaters. Of

course it was all plannedthis way, jokes AmandaSeyfried, claiming thatNiccol “actually said whenwe were shooting themovie, ‘They’re going tooccupy Wall Street like,the next year when thiscomes out. I think this is agreat time to make it.’”

“On top of being areally rich storyfilled with lots ofthings, I got to liveout a lot of boyhoodfantasies in thismovie — shootingguns and getting to learn how to stunt drive.”TIMBERLAKE

Most of us knownever to discusspolitics and reli-gion at work, but

there are other topics thatare equally as taboo. Thesesubjects are off-limitsaround the boss, and evenaround the watercooler.

Relationship status

A recent survey conductedby Adecco polled morethan 800 Americans andrevealed that 23 percentfind relationship status tobe the most taboo topic inthe office. According to thesurvey, relationship statusis even more uncomfort-able to talk about than pol-itics (chosen as most tabooby 16 percent surveyed)and religion (which wasNo. 1 for 10 percent ofthose polled). The take-away: Save talk aboutbreakups and makeupsfor your friendsand family.

Physical appearance“Unless you work in a Hol-lister, your physical appear-ance probably doesn’t havea huge role in your perform-ance at work,” says Antho-ny Morrison, vice presidentof career networking serv-ice Cachinko. “Talkingabout things like weight,clothing and looks can behurtful to companymorale.”

Of course it’s also wiseto avoid talking about howattractive you find a co-worker.

SocioeconomicstatusBen Dattner is the author of“The Blame Game,” a bookthat explores the psycholo-gy of pointing the finger atwork. Dattner finds that dis-cussing your lavish lifestylein the office can cause a riftbetween employees. “Ifyou let coworkers knowthat you are spendingthe holidays at your fam-ily’s 55,000-square-footski chalet in Aspen, oreven that you own yourhome while they rent

theirs, they will likelyhave a hard time relating

to you and may even re-sent you,” says Dattner.

What’s thescariest part of your job?While some jobs are risky,scary undertakings, we alldeal with workplace anxi-eties. In a Halloween-inspired survey, career resource siteCareerBuilder.com asked

There are no suspiciousglances from the student atthe next desk over, and nolooming walk-bys from theclass professor: In an onlinecourse, it’s just you andyour computer. And accord-ing to one recent study,that can open the door forcheating.

Frank M. LoSchiavo andMark A. Shatz, both psy-chology professors at OhioUniversity’s Zanesville

campus, took an in-depthlook at whether studentsare more likely to cheat inonline courses. In the firstpart of the study, about 40students who completed

14 online quizzes duringthe course of the classwere surveyed. At the endof the course, 72.5 percentof students reported cheat-ing at some point by con-

sulting their textbook,notes, friends, family orthe Internet.

Another element of thestudy focused on studentswho were asked to sign an

online honor code thatmade it clear that any formof cheating was a violationof university policy. Re-searchers found that stilldidn’t make much of a dif-ference when it came tocheating — 61.5 percent ofstudents who signed thecode still admitted tocheating.

Would it make a differ-ence if students had tophysically sign an honor

code rather than doing itonline? That could do it.Students who signed thecode the old-fashioned waywere about 30 percent lesslikely to cheat. Still, though,plenty of students did: 57.6percent of those who signedthe honor code cheated andso did 81.8 percent of thosewho did not sign it.

Is cheating a problem in online classes?

When the classroom is the living room, it’s temptingto phone a friend or crack a textbook come quiz time

What two professors recommend to keep it honest

SPONSORED BY

CASSANDRA GARRISON [email protected]

What they

recommend

The authors of the studysuggest that students are

less likely to cheat whenthey have some sort of per-sonal interaction with pro-fessors or classmates. Whena class is solely conductedonline, students who are

“socially disconnected” canmore easily justify cheating.They suggest professors askstudents to take proctoredexams, even if the rest of theclass is online.

Honor code or no honor code, it’s tempting to cheat when no one is looking.

We must votethe greedy outI think the Occupy WallStreet group has spelledout what most of the mid-dle class deems credible:Big business and thebanks have played“gotcha” with us for toolong and we’re just plainfed up with being nickeland dimed to death. Thegovernment bails themout yet they find hugesums of money to pay re-tirees and bonuses as wetry to “play by the rules”while financiers and bigbusiness continue to rakeit all in on the backs ofmiddle-class workers.

Speaking ofgreedy bums Where I live the OWSmovement asked for freeelectricity after someonedonated a TV so theycould watch the Philliesduring the playoffs.

PATRICK LAVELLE, VIA E-MAIL

A colleague of minewalked past these bums at10:30 Friday morning andas usual they were all

OWS seems to be cleansedof guilt every time theirspokesperson releases astatement saying theydon’t condone violence,drug use, etc — despitethe fact that they havevandalized, threatened,stole, abused drugs andbeen a general publicmenace.

1Reappearing act — Three weeks ago, BrentCelek was invisible. Now,

he’s a legit weapon. The hulk-ing tight end was targeted ateam-high seven times and henow has nine catches for 136yards and two scores in hislast two games. Celek alsoopened some nice runninglanes for LeSean McCoy.

2Run ‘D’ may rest — For all the bluster RobRyan’s defense gets —

Dallas had been No. 1 versusthe run — the Eagles had noproblem ramming it downtheir throats. McCoy rippedoff two huge gainers (29, 34yards) early and finished with185 yards and a pair of touch-downs.

3Security blanket — For the past severalyears, the Eagles have

struggled to contain Dallastight end Jason Witten. JuanCastillo devised a perfectgame plan to shut Wittendown, using all three of hisshutdown corners to shadowWitten (four catches, 28yards).

EAGLES 34, COWBOYS 7 Up next: vs. Chicago (Monday) Nov. 13: vs. Arizona

The real McCoy:Birds thrash ‘Boys

LeSean McCoy runs roughshod over vaunted Cowboys run defense Romo never findsrhythm as Eagles ‘D’ continues to improve Birds now in three-way tie for second at 3-4This was the video-gameoffense the Eagles expect-ed when they put thisDream Team together.

The schizophrenic Birdsactually built a first-halflead and held it. Theteam’s much-malignedrun defense held rookieDeMarco Murray in check.And, on a night when theEagles inducted two for-mer defensive standoutsinto their Honor Roll,Juan Castillo enjoyed hisbest game as defensive co-ordinator. The result was a34-7 win last night overthe Cowboys that keptthem in the hunt for theNFC East crown.

Even Andy Reid wasclicking on all cylinders,winning two coaches’challenges while simplyoutcoaching defensivemastermind Rob Ryan.

The Eagles scored ontheir first three posses-sions, all touchdowns.First, it was Mike Vickfinding Jeremy Maclin ona short screen for a score.Then, LeSean McCoy put

his stamp on the game,shaking and baking hisway with three straight an-kle-breaking runs, includ-ing a 2-yard TD. Before thepacked house had time toexhale, Vick found BrentCelek on a 9-yard strike toput the Eagles up 21-0 inthe second quarter.

As many fans braced foranother second-half col-lapse (remember, the Ea-gles blew a 20-3 first-halflead to San Francisco andwere shutout in the sec-ond half during their 20-13win over Washington), itnever came.

Nnamdi Asomugha and the Eagles had plenty of reasons to celebrate last night.

Biggerrivalry: NYor Dallas?

The age-old question: Whois the Eagles’ fiercest rival?

Fans usually claim it’sDallas, but several Eaglesbelieve it might be theNew York Giants.

“I was always told it was

the Cowboys, but afterplaying the games, it’sbeen the Giants,” said DTTrevor Laws. “I think itmight be the whole NewYork attitude thing.”

"I’m still trying to figure

that out,” said DE DarrylTapp. “From a player’sstandpoint, I think itmight be the Giants.”

In an informal poll tak-en by Metro, three playersvoted for the Giants, one

for the Cowboys and sixothers said they hatedboth teams equally.

“Both,” said JeremyMaclin. “And, for me per-sonally, I’d throw the Red-skins in there.” METRO

Union comeup short inplayoff debut

Rowdy crowd watches Houston edge Union, 2-1Union face must-win situation Thursday on the road

Sebastien Le Toux celebrates after scoring for the Union in the sixth minute.

There was a noticeablebuzz at PPL Park more thanan hour before kickoff.

After all, this was thefirst-ever playoff game forthe Philadelphia Union,who have only been in exis-tence for two seasons.

When the game beganagainst the Houston Dy-namo, the sellout crowd of18,539 waved rally towelswhile Jimmy Rollins, ScottHartnell and James vanRiemsdyk donned Uniongear as honorary captains.

The stadium was loudas always.

When it was over, theUnion came up short, 2-1,in the first leg of the East-ern Conference semifinals.Luckily, there’s anothergame to be played Thurs-day night at Houston. IfPhiladelphia can win 1-0and even the total goals inthis series, then the gamewill go to overtime, andpossibly penalty kicks.

“We’re disappointedwith the result,” said sec-ond-year forward DannyMwanga. “The crowd wasgreat. We wanted to get agood result here. We ex-pect to go down there andplay well.”

The Union had 10 shotson goal and seven cornerkicks. There were plenty ofchances to score.

“We have to clean a fewthings up,” said forwardJack McInerney, whoseheader nearly tied thegame in stoppage time atthe end. “We’re a bit upset,but we’re going to Houstonwith the mentality of win-

ning the game.”It was Philadelphia’s

first and only home losssince July 29 against Col-orado.

Since the series is farfrom over, the Union canquickly forget about thisone. If the Union can re-bound and win in Houstonlike they have each of thepast two seasons, they’ll bealive and well.

“There is so much soc-cer to be played,” defenderSheanon Williams said.“We’ve been pinned backagainst the wall before andwe’ve come out swinging.We’ll do that again. We’llbe ready to play. I thinkwe’re a confident group de-spite the result tonight.”

While all may not quite beright with the Flyers’ worldyet, this was a good start.

Following Thursday’s 9-8 defensive disaster versusWinnipeg, where goalieIlya Bryzgalov declaredhimself “terrible,” any-thing would have been animprovement.

But this was much morethan that, as the Flyerstook command of an evengame with four third-peri-od goals — giving them 19in the third period for theseason — while the for-wards and defense did amuch better job keepingthe Carolina Hurricanesaway from Bryzgalov in a5-1 Flyers win.

“I hope we are going inthe right direction nowand everything will befine,” said Bryzgalov, whostopped 24 shots for hisfirst win in the last fivestarts. “It’s a good sign.”

Certainly things areclicking with the new firstline, as Claude Giroux,Jaromir Jagr and ScottHartnell combined for fourgoals and five assistsagainst former Flyer BrianBoucher, while Max Talbotadded a short-handed goalto help break it open.

“It’s a new line andwe’re trying to work chem-istry,” said Giroux, whosefour-point night [goal andthree assists] matched hiscareer high. “Obviously,

they are two big bodiesand I just try to sneakaround. I’m pretty lucky toplay with those two.”

That helped compensate

for not having DannyBriere (upper body) andChris Pronger, who madehis first public appearancesince getting hit with astick near the eye Monday,but has no idea when he’llbe cleared to play.

The Flyers now get a fewdays to regroup beforeheading to Buffalo onWednesday, then hostingthe Devils the next night.

A quirkyMidwesttourist spotput on block

For sale: 38 vintage automobilesat $300,000 Mystical andentertainment value: Priceless

The Friends of Carhengeput the full-scale automo-tive replica of the prehis-toric circle of stones onthe sale block because theorganization lacked capi-tal and volunteers tomaintain the quirkytourist attraction, saidMarcia Buck, the group’spresident.

“This wasn’t easy,” she

said. “We’ve spent many asleepless night wonderingif it’s the best thing to do.”

Buck said it’s time foran entrepreneur to takethe steering wheel anddrive Carhenge into thefuture. Carhenge willmark its 25th anniversarynext year.

Carhenge was built byJim Reinders in 1987 as a

tribute to his late father,who farmed the site twomiles north of Alliance, acity of 8,600 people on thewestern Nebraska plains.

Reinders worked inEngland for a time and vis-ited Stonehenge. Morethan 80,000 tourists fromaround the world have vis-ited the site annually. It isa stop for tour buses and

some visitors come beforedawn to experience thesunrise. Admission to the10-acre grounds is free.

“It’s a sleeper attrac-tion,’’ said Dixie Nelson,executive director of theAlliance Chamber of Com-merce. “It gets a steadytrickle of visitors.”

Four recent visitorsdriving from Joplin, Mo.,

to Denver, detoured a fewhundred miles out of theirway to see Carhenge.

Nelson said motorcy-clists riding to the annualsummer rally in Sturgis,S.D., jokingly considerCarhenge a curse becauseit lures them into Nebras-ka, which requires bikersto wear helmets. REUTERS

Would prospective buyers be interested in purchasing Carhenge for parts?

Entry-levelwagesChrysler’s 2007 contractwith the UAW allowedfor hiring of entry-levelworkers that were paid$14.89 to $16.28 an hour,compared with $28.31for the so-called tier-onewage. Marchionne, saidChrysler must eventuallyfind an “equitablesolution” to the pay dis-parity of its workforce.

About 13 percent ofChrysler’s workforce isbeing paid entry-levelwages, Marchionne said.The automaker will have25 percent or more of itsemployees being paid thelower wages by 2015, hesaid. Those workers getdefined-contribution re-tirement plans, instead ofdefined-benefit pensions,and savings accounts forhealth care in retirement,instead of lifetime cover.

Chrysler calls$51 an hour‘competitive’

Automaker’s 26,000 workers ratified new four-year deal last week Company also saves in long term with benefits, pension compromises

Chrysler, the U.S. automak-er majority-owned by FiatSpA, said its labor costs un-der a new four-year contractwith the United Auto Work-ers will be little changed atabout $51 an hour.

The total hourly cost ofwages and benefits “main-tains Chrysler Group’s costcompetitiveness,” theAuburn Hills, Mich.-basedcompany said in its third-quarter earnings presenta-tion with analysts and re-porters.
