Constitutional change Group reiterates support for bill to prevent felons from becoming sheriffs BY PAUL B. JOHNSON ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

DAVIDSON COUNTY – The state organization of sheriffs has reiterated its support for a proposed change in the North Carolina Constitution to bar felons from becoming sheriffs, a move taking place against the backdrop of felon Gerald Hege seeking to regain his old job in Davidson County. This week, the North Carolina Sheriffs’ Association reaffirmed its support for Senate Bill 351, which would allow voters to decide on the change to the state Constitution. The association,

which first endorsed the legislation last year, reaffirmed its support in a unanimous vote by sheriffs in attendance at the group’s spring meeting. Hege The two-page statement from the Sheriffs’ Association doesn’t mention Hege by name. But its release comes about six weeks before Davidson County voters go to the polls in the May 4 Republican primary to decide whether to give Hege another chance. Hege is one of four Republicans – including Sheriff

and Greensboro chambers of commerce sponsored the event. Other officials said the three cities should work together to further the success of all major road projects in the area rather than competing in a sluggish economy. “These roads are the umbilical cord that bring the life blood to the region as far as economic development and jobs,” said Ralph Wamble, a retired CEO of Hanes Co. and area representative for the N.C. DOT’s disctrict nine, which includes Davidson, Davie, Forsyth, Stokes and Rowan counties. “As a unified Triad, we matter much more. It seems we should acknowledge that reality so that our community governments cooperate.” A unified vision to create a noncongested interstate system in the Triad is also crucial to establish the area as a logistics hub that distributes major freight, added Dave Congdon, CEO of Old Dominion Freight Line. Congdon is

also involved in the creation of the Center for Global Logistics in Greensboro, slated to open in 2011. Conti said the state is looking at several ways to be innovative with its reduced funds, including tolling on some major corridors like I-95. “In these economic times, we have to consider everything,” he said. “Nothing is off of the table at this point.” Light rail systems also may be added in the distant future, he said. “We want to have transportation to support our communities,” Conti said. “We want to have a mother in Walkertown be able to take a bus to her next doctor’s appointment. We want to have grandparents from out of state be able to take a train to see their grandchildren at UNCG or Wake Forest University.” phaynes@hpe.com | 888-3617

City Project members tour renovated condos BY PAM HAYNES ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – Members of the City Project know that if they want to draw more retail shops and restaurants to the ‘Uptowne’ area in High Point, they need to bring people to live in the area. The board of directors for the organization, which exists to revitalize the city’s 11-square-mile core, toured several condominiums in renovated warehouses or showrooms along N. Main Street at its meeting on Thursday. At the corner of N. Main Street and English Road, the group saw 12 condominiums built in the old

Beeson’s Hardware store, which relocated to Kivett Drive. The building was created in the 1800s, and Brown Investments renovated the space several years ago leaving some original features such as exposed beams in the condos. High Point developer Wayne McDonald later purchased the properties. Aaron Clinard, City Project board manager, referred to the spaces as the city’s “best kept secret.” “These are exactly the kinds of the things we want to develop,” Clinard said. “It’s kind of that chicken and the egg deal. If you have housing first, you need services. If you have services and shops, you need people nearby

that use those services.” Condo and loft-style spaces created in the old Wright Clothing Store building on N. Main Street also were toured by the board. The building, about 100 years old, holds 16 units that are leased by Williard-Steward Inc. “It’s things like this that will bring people to live in ‘Uptowne,’” Clinard said. Also at the meeting, Clinard said the board was working with Brian Casey, president of the High Point Market Authority, on a project involving showroom storefronts in the downtown area between furniture markets. Showroom owners also were embarking on their

own grassroots effort to develop some attractions and events for that area, he said. Banners will soon decorate the S. Main Street downtown area, similar to the ‘Uptowne’ banners on N. Main Street, Clinard added. After working with a Guilford Technical Community College student to design the ‘Uptowne’ banners, the board is working with High Point University students to design banners for the S. Main Street area where Ilderton Dodge, Chrysler, Jeep and Guilford Technical Community College’s High Point campus are located. phaynes@hpe.com | 888-3617

Commissioners move to resolve border issue with Alamance BY DAVID NIVENS ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

THE LINE

GUILFORD COUNTY – County commissioners took a big step Thursday toward resolving a longtime border line dispute with Alamance County. Working with an agreement Alamance County officials also must approve, commissioners voted 9-1 to accept the border adjustment and to request resolution powers from the General Assembly. The proposed change affectsabout 100 properties. After both counties approve a line, it will be legal. The line also must be recognized by the General Assembly. The line also determines where children go to school and which county provides fire and police protection. The N.C. Geodetic Survey provided the county-line survey. The proposed agreement surprised and unsettled two officials. “I don’t think this is fair,” said Gibsonville Mayor Leonard Williams. “This is the first time I have heard anything about this since 2007. We have not been involved in this.”

----

From Gibsonville to Kimesville, just where the border line lies between Guilford and Alamance counties has been questioned for years. It was established by the Colonial Legislature in 1770 as a north-south line 25 miles due west of Hillsborough, but no marker in Hillsborough has been found . The current line was drawn in 1849. Democratic Commissioner Kirk Perkins, who lives near the border, voted against the proposal. He wanted commissioners to give property owners notice before any General Assembly action and a public hearing instead of waiting until legislators approve. “We need to listen to the people this affects,” Perkins said. “If the General Assembly approves this, the issue is over. We can’t change the line.” “But if we listen to the people, the line won’t change,” said Board Chairman Skip Alston. “We need the General Assembly to certify this so we can address the problems.”

Hege not concerned FROM PAGE 1

The local bill legislators have been asked to approve lists various tax and district line remedies. “We need these tools from the General Assembly and we think this is the best way to resolve this,” said County Attorney Mark Payne. The problem arose from several new subdivisions, including Mackintosh on the Lake and Beaver Hills Estate, that straddle the border line. Although tax officials in both counties developed working agreements so that 27 border-line property owners would be billed only once, several have been billed twice through the years. “We don’t have the authority to make any changes for people unless the General Assembly gives us the authority,” said Republican Commissioner Steve Arnold of High Point. Clyde Albright, of Alamance County’s legal staff, said he expected Alamance commissioners to approve the agreement. Alamance also has been working on a border adjustment with Orange County. “I think we have covered it all in this agreement,” Albright said.

vidson County Sheriff’s Office. State Sen. Stan Bingham, R-Davidson and sponsor of the bill, said that the constitutional amendment wouldn’t prevent Hege from taking office if he were to win this year, since the sheriff’s race would be on the same ballot as the amendment. But Bingham said that the change, if passed by voters, would prohibit Hege from seeking re-election in 2014 if Hege won the post this fall. The N.C. General Assembly would have to approve Senate Bill 351 during the 2010 session that begins in mid-May in order for the issue to go before the voters in the Nov. 2 general election.

Senate says fish, birds OK in barber shops NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) – Let the record reflect that the Tennessee state Senate has endorsed fish tanks and live birds in barber shops. The Senate on Wednesday voted 30-1 for a measure allowing barber shops to display live fish and birds. A companion

bill passed the House earlier this month and the legislation is headed to the governor. Barber shop owner Lori Corbin had been asked to drain the built-in fish tank at her shop in nearby Mt. Pleasant following a state inspection. Existing law bars birds, fish

or other live animals in barber shops, except for animals that help people with disabilities. The bill has provoked some laughs on Capitol Hill. Corbin said she wants fish in her barber shop because they “make you relaxed.”

Our well-ordered world was intelligently designed The intelligent design theory is an evaluation of one’s own intelligence in discerning if life evolved from electrified soup billions of years ago or if – like a quartz watch that has a four-piece driving system with a crystal oscillator with 32,768 reactions per second with every part in place and functioning – life is the result of intelligent design. Observe one of the simplest life forms on Earth, blue-green algae, having only one DNA molecule, no well-defined internal structures such as a nucleus, chromosomes or internal membranes. The outside membrane is designed to permit the transport of specific concentrations of chemicals and solutions. Variations result in the cell’s death. The membrane discerns the quality of the chemicals and solutions and also their correct proportions. Once in the cell, some 3,000 to 6,000 compounds are synthesized at a rate of about 1 million reactions per second, producing as many as 50 different proteins consisting of about 20 amino acids composed of four elements. All must be in place and functioning for DNA replication to occur. DNA requires highly precise enzymes to translate the DNA, the same enzymes that are coded for by the DNA. All of this is made possible by the outside membrane which is also included in the DNA and must be read before the membrane is formed. Complex?

I was reading in the paper recently about Emerywood Fine Foods being robbed by someone with a gun. You know this is totally ridiculous! I will say this, if anybody breaks into a store or robs it with a gun, that storeowner has the total right to pull out a gun and shoot that person. That person may or may not die, but they should have thought about that way before they decided to commit armed robbery. EDWARD DWIGHT High Point

braham Lincoln once asked an audience how many legs a dog has, if you called the tail a leg? When the audience said “five,” Lincoln corrected them, saying that the answer was four. “The fact that you call a tail a leg does not make it a leg.” That same principle applies today. The fact that politicians call something a “stimulus” does not make it a stimulus. The fact that they call something a “jobs bill” does not mean there will be more jobs. What have been the actual consequences of all the hundreds of billions of dollars that the government has spent? The idea behind the spending is that it will cause investors to invest, lenders to lend and employers to employ. That was called “pump priming.” To get a pump going, people put a little water into it, so that the pump will start pumping out a lot of water. In other words, government money alone was never supposed to restore the economy by itself. It was supposed to get the private sector spending, lending, investing and employing. The question is: Is that what has actually happened? The stimulus spending started back in 2008, during the Bush administration, and has continued under the Obama administration, so it has had plenty of time to show what it can do. After the Bush administration’s stimulus spending in 2008, business spending on equipment and software fell – not rose – by 28 percent. Spending on durable goods fell 22 percent. What about the banks? Four months after the Trouble Asset Relief Program (TARP) poured billions of dollars into the banks, the biggest recipients of that money made 23 percent fewer loans than before. A year later, the credit extended by American banks as a whole was down – not up – by more than $20 billion. Spending in general was down. The velocity of circulation of money fell faster than it had in half a century. Just a few weeks ago, the Wall Street Journal reported, “U.S. banks posted last year their sharpest decline in lending since 1942.” You can call it a stimulus, if you want to, just as you can call a tail a leg. But the actual effect of what is called a “stimulus” has been more like that of a sedative. Why aren’t the banks lending, with all that money sitting there gathering dust? You don’t lend when politicians are

making it more doubtful whether you are going to get your money back – either on time or at all. From the White House to Capitol Hill, politicians are coming up with all sorts of bright ideas for borrowers not to OPINION have to pay back what they borrowed and for lenders Thomas not to be able to foreclose Sowell on people who are months ■■■ behind on their mortgage payments. President Obama keeps telling us that he is “creating jobs.” But more and more Americans have no jobs. The unemployment rate has declined slightly, but only because many people have stopped looking for jobs. You are only counted as unemployed if you are still looking for a job. If all the unemployed people were to decide that it is hopeless and stop looking for work, the unemployment statistics would drop like a rock. But that would hardly be a solution. What is going on, that nothing seems to work? None of this is new. What is going on is what went on during the Great Depression of the 1930s. Money circulated more slowly during the 1930s than during the 1920s. Banks lent out a smaller proportion of the money they had on hand during the 1930s than they did in the 1920s. Anti-business rhetoric and anti-business policies did not create business confidence then, any more than it does now. Economists have estimated that the New Deal prolonged the depression by several years. This is not another Great Depression, at least not yet, and the economy may recover on its own, if the government will let it. But Obama today, like FDR in the 1930s, cannot leave the economy alone. Both have felt a need to come up with one bright idea after another, to “do something.” The theory is that, if one thing doesn’t work, it is just a matter of trying another. But, in an atmosphere where nobody knows what the federal government is going to come up with next, people tend to hang on to their money until they have some idea of what the rules of the game are going to be.

Massive federal spending will be sedative, not stimulus

Census plays important role A for state e all count – if we complete and mail back census forms. “When you receive your 2010 census form, please fill it out and mail it back,” Census Bureau director Robert Groves pleaded Monday, kicking off the national census mail-in campaign in Phoenix, Ariz. This is one time when one person can make a difference, help the U.S. government save money (something it desperately needs to do these days), provide benefit for North Carolina and obey the law – all at the same time – simply by completing the 10-question form and mailing it back to the government. This year’s census form is one of the shortest in history – seeking each person’s name, address, phone number, age, race and ethnicity, gender, living arrangements and homeownership. It’s important to point out that this information is kept confidential under federal law and the Census Bureau does not share data with other agencies, including law enforcement. The Census Bureau predicts that perhaps twothirds of U.S. households will complete and mail the form. From May until July, census-takers will be sent to each home that hasn’t responded by mail. In 2000, North Carolina was one of six states that had mail-back participation rates of less than 70 percent. The Tarheel State has seen high rates of foreclosure and rapid growth of Hispanics, who often are more reluctant to turn in their forms. North Carolina is one of the states that stands to gain at least one U.S. House seat if most of those residing here are counted. An Associated Press report Monday noted that “failure to respond to the census carries a fine of up to $5,000 although that law is rarely enforced.” There really is little excuse for not participating: The Census Bureau for the first time is mailing out bilingual English-Spanish census forms to 13 million households, AP reports, and forms also are available upon request in Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese and Russian and assistance guides are available in 59 languages at 222.2010census.gov. We all count – if we complete and mail back census forms.

Coble for being the only member of the United States Congress who refuses to participate in the Congressional Pension Plan.

In addition, I say thank you to Coble for his decision to vote against the liberal Democratic administration and congressional majority attempts to take over the health care industry. While Congressman Coble doesn’t deny that there are problems with our current health care insurance system, he also believes that there are sensible and budget-conscious solutions to those problems that will not involve adding more than

Chaos marks Iraq election vote tally BAGHDAD (AP) – Dozens of Iraqi journalists waited hours for results in Iraq’s election. What they finally got was a single CD containing all the information and instructions to make copies themselves, prompting a mad dash to the nearest Internet cafe where they paid $1.20 each to find out who was ahead in the ballot count. It was the latest example of the ongoing chaos in Iraq’s postelection count, which has fueled uncertainty and allegations of fraud. So far, Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki’s coalition is leading with

roughly 40,000-vote lead over his closest competitor, former prime minister Ayad Allawi. Questions about the vote’s validity could undermine U.S. ambitions to set a standard for democracy in the Middle East. Preliminary results from Iraq’s 18 provinces have trickled out daily. Generally they’re released on TV screens for reporters to write down, although recently they’ve been handed out on CDs. The piecemeal tallying is in stark contrast to the December 2005 parliament elections and last year’s provincial vote.

Multimillion-dollar UN corruption case uncovered UNITED NATIONS (AP) – The deal looked simple enough: U.S. military equipment suppliers bribed an African defense minister’s salesmen to secure part of a $15 million gig to outfit a presidential guard. But the salesmen were actually FBI agents. And the operation resulted in what U.S. authorities in January called their biggest foreign bribery sting to date, netting 16 indictments and 22 arrests of small arms and military equipment makers. At the center of the U.S. case is Richard Bistrong, a former Florida executive who first surfaced in a series of cases of bribes and bid-rigging for multi-

Clinton did not criticize the long-delayed project directly but said the Obama administration is opposed to the timing of the nuclear plant’s startup.

Good weather, turnout expected for marathon on Saturday BY PAT KIMBROUGH ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – Preparations are finished, strong turnout is expected and the weather forecast is promising. That was the message organizers of the 2010 United Healthcare North Carolina Marathon had on Thursday, as runners get set to take their marks for Saturday’s race in High Point. Race organizers, city officials and sponsors gathered for a press conference at Showplace, the downtown High Point site of the start and finish of the 26.2mile race, half marathon and a 5K run.

“We’re in our third year and we’re on par probably to get our best turnout yet,” said Creigh Kelly, race emcee and director of BKB Ltd., a Colorado company that offers management, registration and consulting services for running and multi-sport events. “We’re going to have a lot of new faces arriving who are very anxiously awaiting to run their first marathon, half marathon or 5K.” Melissa Fourrier, director of the race and executive director of Foster Friends of North Carolina, said more than 1,500 runners were signed up as of Thursday, with a final surge of registrations expected today. “This is a huge event and there

are so many moving parts when the gun goes off at 8 a.m. (Saturday),” said Fourrier. The marathon will raise money for Foster Friends, which works to assist foster children statewide. “I’m always in awe of the runners and the training and things that they do,” said Garland “Scottie” Scott, CEO of United Healthcare, the event’s title sponsor. “At the end of the day, it’s about the kids of Foster Friends of North Carolina and their mission. We know they do a lot of wonderful things in the community for children.” Guilford County Department of Social Services Director Robert Williams said the work of organi-

zations like Foster Friends is crucial to his agency. “When children are taken into foster care, it is a sad day. We try not to do that, and when we do, you can rest assured, it is being done to protect the safety and welfare of that child,” said Williams. “It’s truly a community job. The county cannot do it by itself. The state cannot do it by itself.” The marathon and half marathon will begin at 8 a.m. The 5K starts at 9 a.m. Officials advise motorists to expect delays and closures at intersections throughout the city through the morning and early afternoon. pkimbrough@hpe.com | 888-3531

HIGH POINT – The City Council gave the go-ahead Thursday for Presbyterian Homes Inc. to construct a corporate office facility at the north High Point retirement community it manages. During its meeting, the council approved requests to amend a conditional use permit to allow a management services office at River Landing at Sandy Ridge, which will house management, accounting, development and human resources personnel who work for the nonprofit organization, which manages River Landing as well as retirement communities in Cary and Laurinburg. Presbyterian Homes representatives said plans call for a 5,300-square-foot structure on the Sandy Ridge Road site with a brick exterior and other features designed to ensure computability with surrounding residential uses. “We want it to look as homelike as possible,” said Presbyterian Homes President Tim Webster. “We don’t think the residents would be too happy with an institutional-like building there.” The building could be as large as 7,000 square feet. Mike Scott, who lives just north of the site, told the council during the public hearing on Presbyterian Homes’ requests that he’s not opposed to the expansion but was concerned about the proposed height of the new building because it could be out of character with his and other homes in the area. He asked the council to limit the size of the building. The council approved the requests subject to conditions, including restricting the building to one story in height. The vote was unanimous, minus council members Latimer Alexander and Mike Pugh, who were absent from Thursday’s meeting. The council also unanimously approved renewing the city’s contract with The Ferguson Group, a Washington, D.C., lobbying firm, to assist in securing federal funds and related legislative matters of interest. The contract holds steady the city’s current fee of $10,000 per month and covers the period from April 1, 2010, through March 31, 2011. pkimbrough@hpe.com 888-3531

Basnight event helps NC Senate Democrats RALEIGH (AP) – Senate leader Marc Basnight could raise hundreds of thousands of dollars for his campaign at an event honoring the Dare County Democrat at the North Carolina State Fairgrounds. Former Gov. Jim Hunt was the featured host for the Basnight tribute Thursday night in Raleigh. Between 300 and 400 people paying $100 to $4,000 were expected to feast on barbecue ribs and Hyde County oysters. The invitation says blue jeans are required. Basnight has said he will work with fellow Democrats to preserve Democratic control of the Senate in November as several colleagues retire this year.

Fess Parker, TV’s ‘Davy Crockett,’ dies at 85 LOS ANGELES (AP) – Fess Parker, a baby-boomer idol in the 1950s who launched a craze for coonskin caps as television’s Davy Crockett, died Thursday of natural causes. He was 85. Family spokeswoman Sao Anash said Parker, who was also TV’s Daniel Boone and later a major California winemaker and developer, died at his Santa Ynez Valley home. His death comes on the 84th birthday of his wife of 50 years, Marcella. “She’s a wreck,” Anash said, adding Parker was coherent and speaking with family just minutes before his death. Funeral arrangements will be announced later. The first installment of “Davy Crockett,” with Buddy Ebsen as Crockett’s sidekick, debuted in December 1954 as part of the “Disneyland” TV show. The 6-foot, 6-inch Parker was quickly embraced by youngsters as the man in a coonskin cap who stood for the spirit of the American frontier. Boomers gripped by the Crockett craze scooped up Davy lunch boxes, toy Old Betsy rifles, buckskin shirts and trademark fur caps. “The Ballad of Davy Crockett” (“Born on a mountaintop in Tennessee...”) was a No. 1 hit for singer Bill Hayes while Parker’s own version reached No. 5.

Aneurysm kills financial wizard Jerome York DETROIT (AP) – Jerome York, an Apple Inc. board member and a financial wizard credited with turning around Chrysler and IBM, died Thursday of a brain aneurysm. He was 71. He died at POH Regional Medical Center in Pontiac, Mich., after being taken there on Tuesday night. York, who led an investigation of Apple’s stock option practices, was a pillar

of financial and business expertise, Apple Inc. CEO Steve Jobs said. Jobs said York joined Apple’s board in 1997 when most people doubted the company’s future; since then, the company has launched such highly successful products as the iPhone and the iPod. “It’s been a privilege to know and work with Jerry, and I’m going to miss him a lot,” Jobs said in a

Ex-Easley aide charged with tax evasion

Vice President Joe Biden is given a tour by employee Dave Emerson (right) during a visit to Cree Inc. in Durham on Thursday.

Biden: Manufacturing key for middle-class wages DURHAM (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Manufacturing jobs are essential to support a vibrant middle class and the Obama Administration is working to boost U.S. manufacturing of growing technologies, Vice President Joe Biden said Thursday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to make sure that we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just build the same old economy on top of the one that just collapsed,â&#x20AC;? Biden said during a visit with Energy Secretary Steven Chu to Cree Inc., a maker of lightemitting diodes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Instead, we are remaking what we do, what we make, what we build and design, what we produce and where we produce it,â&#x20AC;? Biden said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;All with an eye on bringing the middle class back to the place where we used to be able to be. That you could have a good job, a decent job. We want to create whole new industries.â&#x20AC;? The visit came the same day President Barack Obama signed into law

a $38 billion package of tax breaks and spending designed to give U.S. companies added incentive to expand hiring. Cree has transitioned in recent years from making light-emitting diodes for mobile phones and automobile dashboards toward commercial lighting units. It is expanding rapidly with demand for its energy-efficient products, has hired about 375 workers since last summer, and still has dozens of remaining vacancies. Cree is spending $150 million out of the $430 million of new stock it sold investors in September to expand production. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s doubling its manufacturing in China for Asian markets, where Chu said the majority of the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s LED fixtures are manufactured. The company also is speeding up expansion at its U.S. manufacturing hub here with $39 million in cleanmanufacturing tax credits from last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s $787 stimulus package. Doz-

ens of companies in 43 states have received the credits. Biden said they included a General Electric plant in Kentucky that makes high-efficiency dishwashers and an Indiana company producing precision gearboxes for wind turbines. Republicans said Thursday the stimulus package has failed to turn around the slumping economy. With the national unemployment rate near 10 percent â&#x20AC;&#x153;it is hard to consider this legislation successful,â&#x20AC;? the Republican National Committee said. Biden said the U.S. is competing against companies around the world that have taken leadership positions in manufacturing products with growth potential, from high-speed trains in Spain to fuel-efficient cars in Japan. Testing department supervisor Regi Smith said he was unemployed for nearly a year during the last recession before landing a job at Cree eight years ago.

Family-owned business puts greed first

ear Abby: Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m a career woman, working for a family-owned business. Last year was difficult because there have been a number of layoffs and no raises. When I had my annual review, I received an outstanding evaluation but was again told no raise would be forthcoming because business is slow. I could understand this because of the current economy if the owners of the company werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t taking expensive vacations and buying new luxury cars. I have a hard time accepting thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no money for raises when they spend so extravagantly. I understand itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not my business how they spend their money, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s difficult to swallow when I feel so taken advantage of. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not the only one here feeling the way I do, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s beginning to create a hostile environment. Am I wrong to feel this way? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Bitter in The Northeast Dear Bitter: If your employers are claiming poverty while indulging in conspicuous consumption, your feelings are understandable. And as soon as the job market improves, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sure you will be only a part of the stampede of fellow employees seeking another job. With your outstanding reviews it shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be too difficult to find one. Bide your time ... Dear Abby: My daughter is being married in

the fall and she has asked me to be her matron of honor. She has ADVICE been through a Dear lot, and I Abby have â&#x2013; â&#x2013; â&#x2013; supported her all the way. She says I am the only one who had faith in her, encouraged her and loved her no matter what. Are moms supposed to be in their daughtersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; weddings? She doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want her dad in the wedding, so this makes it difficult. I am honored that she wants me to be her matron of honor. If her dad isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t in the wedding, should I be in it? I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want any hard feelings from the other family members, but my daughter is determined to have me as her matron of honor. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Donna in South Carolina Dear Donna: If what your daughter said is true, and you were the only one who had faith in her and loved her unconditionally, then you should accept her offer to stand with her at the altar. And yes, it has been done before. Dear Abby: I am a freelance writer who works from home. I have flexibility when it comes to my work hours, but I decide that on my own terms. I have lost count of the number of times friends and family have

asked me to baby-sit, have lunch or go out shopping with them because, according to them, writing isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t â&#x20AC;&#x153;real workâ&#x20AC;? and working from home means having no fixed hours. Last week my husband called me from his office and asked me to bring him some documents he had forgotten at home. When I realized it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t urgent, I told him no and that he had interrupted my train of thought. He has been sulking for days. Was I wrong? In this digital age, with more people working from home, it still means adhering to a schedule. Oh, and one more thing â&#x20AC;&#x201C; please remind your readers that writing is very much a REAL job. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Freelance Writer in Tennessee Dear Freelance Writer: Consider it done. Writing requires concentration, and it IS a very real job. However, you may be bringing some of your problems on yourself by not informing your friends and family that you write between certain hours every day. And an effective way to isolate yourself and ensure you wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be interrupted by annoying phone calls would be to turn your phone off during the hours that youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re writing. DEAR ABBY is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

Bomb-making material found in home

RALEIGH (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; A federal grand jury added six tax evasion and racketeering-related counts Thursday to an indictment already accusing an ex-aide to former North Carolina Gov. Mike Easley of 51 corruption charges involving trips and profits on coastal developments. The new 57-count indictment accuses Ruffin Poole of three federal income tax charges alleging he filed fraudulent tax returns for him and his wife in 2005, 2006 and 2007 when he failed to report about $55,000 in extra income gained from investing in two coastal subdivisions. Another three charges accuse Poole of using emails and the Internet â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a method of interstate commerce â&#x20AC;&#x201D; with a developer to facilitate Pooleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s alleged racketeering stemming from the investments he made while working in the Easley administration. The new indictment incorporates the 51 felony counts filed in January accusing Poole, a former personal assistant and special counsel to Easley,

of making a nearly 28 percent return on $200,000 in investments on two coastal subdivisions with the help of an unidentified â&#x20AC;&#x153;Wilmington financier,â&#x20AC;? as well as receiving airplane trips to Costa Rica and New Orleans and other gifts, according to the indictment. The initial counts accuse Poole of extortion, bribery, money laundering, honest services mail fraud and using the mail for racketeering. The maximum punishments for all the charges add to up hundreds of years in prison and millions of dollars in fines. Poole, who was already scheduled in court late Thursday for a hearing on the first 51 counts, remains free while awaiting a trial. He and his attorney declined to comment on the new counts as he left the Raleigh federal courthouse. Given the new charges, Judge Terrence Boyle delayed an arraignment and waited until at least next week to rule on a motion by Pooleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lawyer to delay the scheduled April 26 trial until August for more preparation time.

SHAWBORO (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Authorities say they found bomb-making materials, plants that could be made into poisons and flight training papers at a home in eastern North Carolina. Multiple media outlets reported Currituck County deputies called the FBI to investigate after arresting two brothers in a home they rented near Shawboro. The brothersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; landlord called police after noticing the men were growing plants in the attic of their home. Deputies say 34-yearold Daniel Robinson II is charged with possession of weapons of mass destruction and poisonous plants that could be used for bomb making. No federal charges have been filed.

remember my drill instructor years ago very indelicately reminding me and the rest of my platoon never to underestimate the awesome power of a loaded weapon. We had just experienced an accidental discharge at the rifle range that had nearly taken off the head of one of our shooting GIVING 101 instructors. Needless to say, it was Paul a rough Lessard afternoon, â&#x2013; â&#x2013; â&#x2013; especially for the knucklehead who had inadvertently squeezed off the round. The enduring lesson I took from that day was that underestimating anything deprives us of fully experiencing the most important gifts life offers. Recently I spoke to students in middle and upper school at Wesleyan Christian Academy, and I made a reference to the dire needs in Haiti and threw out a challenge for those students to consider helping. Their chaplain, Paul Coats, also showed a video that portrayed the tragic aftermath of the earthquake. So that morning those students were educated on a need and challenged to make a difference. What happened next will renew your faith in young people. A week later I received a call from Rob Brown, the new head administrator at Wesleyan, who informed me that his students had run with the Haiti challenge and raised $3,200. I was so impressed that I immediately called one of our Donor Advised Fund holders, who loved students, I knew, and shared the news. Without hesitation, that person made an offer on the spot to match the studentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; money. As a result $6,400 went to Haiti because those young people had cared enough to take action. I walked away from this experience convinced that expectations are indeed the key to personal growth, servant leadership and achievement. I believe more than ever that we must start having higher and more consistent expectations of our young people. The same expectations, I might add, are ones we grew up receiving from our own parents, who I think were a little less concerned about giving us the best that money could buy and more concerned about giving us those things money canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t buy, such as character, compassion and selflessness.

Cataract surgery often frees a person of glasses

ear Dr. Donohue: Will you please write about cataracts? My eyes feel like they have dirt in them, and my head aches all the time on top and in the forehead. – B.P.

BLONDIE

A bit inward from the pupil of the eye is the eye’s lens. It’s a clear, oval-shaped affair that focuses incoming light on the retina to form a sharp image. A cataract is a smudge on the lens. It blurs the incoming image. It’s like trying to look through a very dirty window. It’s something that happens to everyone with aging. Diabetes, smoking, excessive alcohol and sunlight also contribute to cataract formation. Eye doctors replace clouded lenses with sparkling-clean artificial ones. Vision is restored. If a person had worn glasses prior to surgery, the new artificial lens can be fashioned to the same specifications that the person’s eyeglasses had. Many people, after cataract surgery, no longer need glasses. It’s quite remarkable. It’s even more remarkable how quick and trouble-free cataract surgery is. A few decades ago, cataract surgery required people to remain in the hospital with their head between sandbags so they didn’t move it after the operation. Now people return home the same day.

HEALTH Dr. Paul Donohue ■■■

Gritty eyes are not a sign of cataracts. Headaches are not a typical symptom, either. Vision loss is the principal cataract sign.

Dear Dr. Donohue: In case you didn’t notice my address, I currently am a resident of the department of corrections of my home state. Contrary to popular opinion, the medical care provided here leaves a much to be desired. I think most Third World countries get better care. Doctors here think naproxen fixes everything. I hope you can shed some light on my problem involving my hands and feet. They sweat constantly. They sweat to the point where they drip. It is a disgusting problem. I have battled with it most of my life and have yet to find a remedy. In a world where hand-shaking is a custom, what can I do? – B.S. The first thing to try is a regular antiperspirant, one found in all drugstores. Make sure it’s not just a deodorant. It has to say “antiperspirant.” The most effective ones contain aluminum chloride. CertainDri is one that is often recommended. The same company that makes CertainDri also

makes a foot powder of the same name with the same properties. If these products fail, then the next step to take is a higher concentration of aluminum chloride – 20 percent. It’s available as Drysol. A prescription is required. Medicines that calm the digestive tract also can decrease sweat production. Robinul and Robinul Forte are two such medicines. They are not expensive. They sometimes produce unpleasant side effects, like a dry mouth and constipation. I don’t know if the authorities will swing for a Drionic device. It’s a battery-powered gadget that delivers an electric current to the palms and soles (and to the underarms if need be) either through a water bath or saturated pads. The current plugs sweat glands. Maybe you’ll never need this treatment. I hope one of the other methods works for you. Botox injections can stop sweating. One reader told me that her experience with these shots was quite painful. As a last resort, severing the nerves that control sweating is another possible solution. DR. DONOHUE regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but he will incorporate them in his column whenever possible. Readers may write him or request an order form of available health newsletters at P.O. Box 536475, Orlando, FL 32853-6475

Women of strength Four civic leaders to speak at library program BY JIMMY TOMLIN ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

IGH POINT – Womanhood will be the focus Saturday during a High Point Public Library program featuring four prominent local women. The program, titled “Looking Back/Moving Forward: Four Women Speak,” will feature Becky Smothers, Judy Mendenhall, Bernita Sims and Mary Jarrell reminiscing about some of the more influential women in their lives. “March is Women’s History Month, so I wanted to get some prominent, successful women in the community to talk about women in their lives who have influenced them,” said Jackie Hedstrom, supervisor of the library’s North Carolina Collection, which is sponsoring the event. “These four women all happen to have some political history, but this program is not about politics – it’s about the women who helped them obtain success.” Smothers, for example, remembers being influenced by the life stories of several women she met after moving to High Point in the early 1960s. “Life stories are just incredible,” said Smothers. “One was a widow who raised her children by herself and kept her mom. And others were women I met

“Looking Back/Moving Forward: Four Women Speak” will be presented at 2:30 p.m. Saturday in the third-floor Research Services room of the High Point Public Library, 901 N. Main St. The program, being held in conjunction with Women’s History Month, will feature community leaders Becky Smothers, Bernita Sims, Judy Mendenhall and Mary Jarrell reminiscing about women who have influenced their lives. Admission is free. For more information, contact Jackie Hedstrom at 883-3637 or ncroom@highpointnc.gov. while doing volunteer work – women like Nancy Lyles and Meredith Swain.” Through her life of public service, Smothers likely has influenced other women in her own right. She served many years on High Point City Council and has served several terms as the city’s mayor, a title she currently holds. She has also been active in community service, in addition to raising her family. Sims, a High Point native, has been a member of High Point City Council since December 2003, including a one-year stint as mayor pro-tem. She’s a 2003

graduate fellow of the Institute of Political Leadership at the University of North Carolina at Wilmington. Mendenhall also served on the city council – and was High Point’s first female mayor. She’s a past president of the International Home Furnishings Market Authority and the High Point Chamber of Commerce, and she’s currently executive director of West End Ministries. Jarrell, another former council member (and mayor pro-tem), served seven terms in the N.C. House of Representatives. She currently serves on the board of trustees for Guilford Technical Community College and has been active in such organizations as the High Point Historical Society and the YWCA of High Point. The four women will share their stories, and then audience members will be free to ask questions or share stories about women who have influenced them. “I’m impressed with this group of women,” Hedstrom said. “They’ve been groundbreakers for women in local politics, and they all have outside community work. I think it’s going to be really interesting to hear their stories.” jtomlin@hpe.com | 888-3579

“Here’s the proposition, my boy,” King Cepheus told the young hero Perseus. “Pass a threefold test to make 3NT and marry my daughter, the lovely Andromeda. Fail, and we feed you to that sea serpent we’ve had problems with. You see, Queen Cassiopeia was vain enough to say she was more beautiful than the Nereids ...” The princess was indeed attractive, so Perseus consented to the test. “West leads the eight of hearts,” the king said, “and East covers dummy’s jack with the queen.” “I duck,” Perseus said promptly. “If I win and West wins a diamond trick later, a heart continuation beats me.” “East shifts to a low club,” Cepheus went on. SECOND HEART “I play the king,” said Perseus. “I mustn’t let West get in to lead a second heart.” After negotiating the first two trials, Perseus had no trouble with the third: He played a low diamond from both hands next, keeping communication, and was safe. “Well done,” Cepheus exclaimed. “What’s your record against sea serpents?”

Friday, March 19, 2010 CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Bruce Willis, 55; Glenn Close, 63; Ursula Andress, 74; Phyllis Newman, 77 HAPPY BIRTHDAY: Don’t let the little things get to you. Opportunities are available and it’s important that you recognize what’s being offered and act on it. Once you realize who your allies are, you will prosper personally, professionally and financially. Your sincerity will help you attract individuals with something to offer in return. Your numbers are 3, 10, 18, 21, 29, 36, 42 ARIES (March 21-April 19): A partnership will be in jeopardy. Situations that arise will force you into a make- it-or-break-it period that must be handled with care. You can enhance a relationship by addressing the problems promptly. ★★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Don’t get stressed over nothing. Instead, keep your thoughts a secret and you’ll be able to work toward your goals without interference. The busier you are, the less chance there will be to get into trouble with someone you deal with regularly. ★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Move forward regardless of what others do and you will meet someone who shares your interests. As long as you follow your heart and refrain from overreacting, you will maintain your status quo and leave a good impression. ★★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): Don’t confuse love with friendship. Be clear about what someone wants or expects from you before you make any promises. You may not like change but, if something isn’t working, don’t linger over what needs to be altered. ★★★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Don’t settle for less when you want so much more. Plan a trip that will benefit you personally, professionally or educationally. You need to shake up your world. Spark your enthusiasm by taking on something you find challenging. ★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Personal evaluation will help you understand what’s overdue and needed in your life in order to improve your friendships, your home or your finances. Don’t be afraid to spend money if there is potential for a return. Investing in your talent will bring rewards. ★★★★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Satisfy your curiosity, try new things and make new acquaintances. The possibilities are endless if you get out and get busy with people, places and things that will motivate and inspire you. ★★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Let go of the past and the people and things that are holding you back. Grudges and revenge are a waste of time. Free your mind – engage in the things that promote creativity, not fear. Positive thoughts can alter the way you live your life. ★★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You will face opposition if you are pushy. Unexpected changes at home will leave you second-guessing what to do next. Focus on nurturing the relationships you cherish before it’s too late. Put home and family first, not your work. ★★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): If someone tries to push you into something, it’s not a crime to back away. Look back and you will know through your past experiences what’s required of you now. It’s time to protect your heart and your assets by making personal and domestic changes. ★★★★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Pick up more knowledge or skills that will help you earn more money. Use your charm to help you advance. A serious plan of attack will be all that’s required to get ahead. Don’t hold back when you have so much to gain. ★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Take a look at the goals you have yet to accomplish. Take a new approach to old ideas. Fulfilling your dreams will have a huge effect on the way you advance in the future. Keep your friends close and your enemies closer. ★★★★ ONE STAR: It’s best to avoid conflicts; work behind the scenes or read a good book. Two stars: You can accomplish but don’t rely on others for help. Three stars: If you focus, you will reach your goals. Four stars: You can pretty much do as you please, a good time to start new projects. Five stars: Nothing can stop you now. Go for the gold.

Duke seniors seek different script BY BRYAN STRICKLAND ENTERPRISE DURHAM BUREAU

Miles Plumlee (left) tries to drive past fellow center Brian Zoubek on Thursday as Duke gets ready to face Arkansas-Pine Bluff in the first round of the NCAA Tournament tonight in Jacksonville, Fla.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – In 30 seasons at Duke, Coach Mike Krzyzewski personally has experienced just about every possible ending to the NCAA Tournament, from the agony of a last-second loss in the first round to the ecstasy of being the one team that never loses. Even with such a developed sense of perspective, Krzyzewski still finds the end of the road jarring. “The tournament is cruel in its abruptness,” Krzyzewski said. “You go from, ‘I’m going to be in this moment,’ to ‘I was in the moment, but it was somebody else’s.’ “That’s what happens to 64 teams. Only one eventually has

that really great moment.” Tonight, Krzyzewski and his Blue Devils will embark on the beginning of their end, though few believe top-seeded Duke’s opener against No. 16 seed Arkansas-Pine Bluff will produce the type of abrupt ending that Krzyzewski referenced. His current seniors have experienced three different NCAA Tournament departures – a firstround exit as freshmen, then a second-round loss and finally a third-round loss – but this is their last chance for a truly happy ending. “I think the key thing for me and the rest of the guys who are in their last year is to not put too much pressure on ourselves,” senior Jon Scheyer said. “I think that’s an especially big thing for me. I might have done that even a

little bit in the ACC Tournament, even though that’s not even your last game. “I’m going to try to not put too much pressure on myself.” Scheyer started his NCAA Tournament career with a crushing loss to VCU in the opening round when the Blue Devils were a No. 6 seed, then the last two seasons ended in losses for second-seeded Duke teams – to No. 7 West Virginia in the 2008 second round and to No. 3 Villanova in the 2009 Sweet 16. He blames those past setbacks on a lack of toughness, something he and his fellow seniors feel like Duke no longer lacks. “Toughness is the absolute biggest thing you need to have in this tournament. If you don’t have it, you can be exposed,” senior Brian Zoubek said.

Pittman fits into Quakers’ playoff run A

nyone who watched Josh Pittman play at Trinity the last four years would have a hard time reconciling his numbers this winter for Guilford College. Nineteen minutes per game; 6.7 points per contest; a mere 5.4 shots taken per game, SPORTS for goodness sake! Steve Pittman, Hanf however, ■■■ finds himself a bit more interested in other numbers. Like 30-2, the Quakers’ record. And Final Four, Guilford’s destination tonight. “You put Josh on another team, he could average 20 points and 10 assists a game,” Guilford coach Tom Palombo said. “Obviously, he was the best player on his team, the best player in the area. To come here and fit in as seamlessly as he has, where now he doesn’t have the ball in his hands all the time, he’s not the dominant scorer, yet he’s an important part of what we do – you’ve got to give him all the credit for that. To be able to do what he’s done, it is remarkable.” Pittman’s path to the small, private Greensboro school was just as remarkable. Shunned by college coaches at all levels because of his size – 6-foot-1, 160 pounds – the prolific Trinity scorer took a late visit to Guilford in the spring and got

an eye-opening experience. Guilford had just wrapped up a 26-6 season and third-place finish at the NCAA Division III Final Four. The Quakers boasted the 2007 national D-III player of the year in Ben Strong. Heck, Guilford’s four-year record from 2006 to now stands at 104-18 – a winning percentage of .852 that tops both North Carolina (11730, .796) and Duke (108-28, .794) as best in the state. “I remember the day coming over here, meeting with the coaches and they were talking about Getting into the flow of the the program, all the retoward the basket. cords, the Ben Strongs.

Rex Grossman says he wants to get back to being a starting NFL quarterback and hopes “to be thrown into the mix” with the Washington Redskins. Speaking to reporters at Redskins Park on Thursday, a day after signing a one-year deal, Grossman said he “definitely” thinks he can be a starter again. He said the Redskins did not discuss his role with them, but he is looking at this as “a stepping stone to the second half” of his career.

Guilford offense, former Trinity star Josh Pittman drives at 85.7 (42-for-49). Pittman’s also done a nice job handling his other guard duties, with only 38 turnovers to go with 56 assists and 19 steals. “Coach told me at the beginning of the year, ‘If you learn one thing about this year, just take care of the ball and play defense. You don’t have to score loads of points,’ ” Pittman said. “My shots will come. I try not to do too much out here.” It was tough getting used to at first, Pittman offered, for him and his many fans. “A bunch of my friends used to nag me about that stuff,” he said with a smile. “They said that without watching us play and then they finally get there and are like, ‘OK, those guys can really shoot the ball. You need to learn something from them.’

No kidding, Pittman told them: “ ‘That’s why I’m here. I’m a freshman. I get to learn.’ ” Regardless of how Guilford performs tonight, it’s obvious Pittman will be called upon in the future to produce some of those eye-popping numbers everyone got used to seeing at Trinity. “He’ll assume a much bigger role, and he’ll need to work on his game, on his body, this spring and summertime,” Palombo said. “I think he will. He loves basketball. He wants to play basketball. I think when he comes back as a sophomore, as good as he’s been this year, I think he’ll be that much better – I think we won’t recognize the player he is as a sophomore. he’ll be that much better.” shanf@hpe.com | 888-3526

HIT AND RUN

TOP SCORES

the classic “fake nap trick” as decisive in determining a winner. In the 2008 race, Mackey and four-time champion Jeff King battled tooth-and-nail for the title. The outcome remained in doubt until the duo reached the town of Elim. Mackey came to the checkpoint three minutes ahead of King. The leader warmed up with a cup of coffee, then made a grand show of lying down for a nap. He even told volunteers on site to wake him up in an hour. When King followed the leader and took

a nap, Mackey bolted out the door while his closest pursuer snored. Mackey led by 70 minutes when King woke up. You have to admit, that’s a cool stunt. It kinda reminds me of the hidden-ball trick in baseball or the Statue of Liberty play in football. Only this time, the trick play worked. I salute all the mushers and their teams. Keep up the good work, gang. And please, don’t get caught napping.

SAN JOSE, Calif. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Danero Thomas hit a 15-footer as the buzzer sounded and 13th-seeded Murray State stunned No. 4 seed Vanderbilt 66-65 on Thursday in the NCAA tournament.

The Fighting Irish rushed the ball up the court as the clock wound down, but Scottâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s attempt to tie the game didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t fall and Harangodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s putback at the buzzer wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t enough.

Kyle Busch goes with same Bristol plan BY GREER SMITH ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER

BRISTOL, Tenn. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Kyle Busch knows how to roll at Bristol Motor Speedway. In the past six Cup races at the .533-mile bowl, Busch owns three wins, a second, an eighth and a 17th. After sweeping both events last year, Busch is shooting for his third straight Thunder Valley victory in the Food City 500 on Sunday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m hoping Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m on something that lasts for a long time and isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a coupleyear blurb,â&#x20AC;? Busch said. Once a driver becomes successful at Bristol, the pattern is for sustained success. Darrell Waltripâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s record 12 wins came over 17 years, Rusty Wallaceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nine was over 14 years and Dale Earnhardt Sr.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nine was over 20 years. Drivers have also won

Buschâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s brother Kurt won four of five and six of nine. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bristol is one of those places where you get it figured out, you can run well there,â&#x20AC;? Busch said.

Despite having a new crew chief in Dave Rogers, Busch said his team will go with what was successful when Steve Addington called the shots. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re looking to take the same setup that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve run there in the past, maybe a couple different minor things weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going

Addington is now working for Kurt Busch, making the older brother a threat to return to victory lane. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be fast there, especially with Addington,â&#x20AC;? Kyle Busch said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll know what theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re doing there. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be somebody we have to worry about.â&#x20AC;? The younger Busch said that not getting in a rush can be a positive. Another one is that the last two wins came after the sharply banked turns were reconfigured, a change that allows for more side-byside racing, â&#x20AC;&#x153;You can lead 430-some-

thing laps and not win, yet you can win the final 28 laps and go on to win,â&#x20AC;? Kyle said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t matter much where youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re running until after the final pit stop, see how things play out in the race, see how you position yourself at the end of the race. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We look forward to going to Bristol because Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been able to do all of those things. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been a fun place for me to race. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve learned how to grow accustomed to the track relatively quickly since itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been redone. Hopefully we can have the same success yet again.â&#x20AC;?

Rangers manager admits pot use SURPRISE, Ariz. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A day after acknowledging he failed a drug test for cocaine last year, Texas Rangers manager Ron Washington says he used marijuana and amphetamines while he was a player. Washington calls his past drug use a â&#x20AC;&#x153;youthful error.â&#x20AC;? He did not detail Thursday how often he used those drugs. Washington says his mistakes from years ago have nothing to do with the issue heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s facing now. The 57-year-old Washington played 10 seasons in the majors, mostly as an infielder for Minnesota in the 1980s.

Eric Fehr forced the overtime for Washington, scoring with 10 seconds left in regulation and goalie Semyon Varlamov off for an extra attacker. LaRose put the Hurricanes ahead on a breakaway with 1:35 to go. It was LaRoseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fifth goal of

the season and 100th NHL point. Washington played without captain and scoring leader Alex Ovechkin, serving the second of a two-game suspension for his hit on Chicago defenseman Brian Campbell on Sunday. Defenseman Joe Corvo, obtained from the Hurricanes in a March 3 trade and playing his first game back in Raleigh, had Washingtonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first two goals. Carolina goalie Justin Peters and Washingtonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Varlamov each made 25 saves. Carolina was without

defenseman Tim Gleason, expected to be sidelined three weeks with a broken foot. He was injured Saturday against Phoenix and played through it Tuesday night against Boston.

The Capitals outshot Carolina 8-6 in a scoreless first period in which no penalties were called. Corvo broke the shutout 30 seconds into the second when he beat Peters from the slot.

Fargo residents learn from mistakes in flood fight FARGO, N.D. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Before this flood season, officials in Fargo asked homeowners to clear paths in their yards so that firm and straight walls of sandbags could be placed to protect their homes. One resident cut down his tree. Another went so far to use a torch to melt the ice off his ground. Last year, Fargo wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t so prepared. Homeowners put sandbags right on top of snow instead of the bare ground, allowing water to seep underneath and in some cases, causing dikes to collapse.

ABC hires Amanpour for Sunday morning gig NEW YORK (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; CNNâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Christiane Amanpour is ABCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s choice to replace George Stephanopoulos as host of its Sunday morning political talk show â&#x20AC;&#x153;This Week.â&#x20AC;?

The National Weather Service is forecasting the river to crest Sunday at 20 feet above the flood stage, meaning the overflowing river waters could threaten homes, parks and roads in several low-lying neighborhoods. Last year, the city scrambled to get finished in time, forcing some residents to franticly sandbag and sump pump the rising river water out of their yards at the same time.

FDIC to rule on guarantees WASHINGTON (AP) — The head of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. said Thursday the agency will decide soon whether to end a government guarantee for special deposit accounts in banks used by businesses. The guarantee for non-interest-bearing “transaction” accounts was part of a program backing hundreds of billions of dollars in U.S. banks’ debt that was put in at the height of the financial crisis in October 2008.

WINSTON-SALEM — Increased demand for desktop computers has compelled Dell Inc. to extend the reprieve of its local plant for a third time through the end of October, according to local elected officials today. David Plyler, the chairman of the Forsyth County Board of Commissioners, said he received word of that decision from Dell

The decision means that the plant would be open more than a year following the closing announcement of Oct. 7. officials. Allen Joines, the mayor of Winston-Salem, said he has been trying to return a message today from Kip Thompson, the vice president for facilities of Dell. The decision means

that the plant would be open more than a year following Dell’s plant closing announcement of Oct. 7. There are an estimated 500 employees at the plant -- about 400 Dell

workers and 100 temporary and contact workers. The company initially said that the plant would close in mid-to-late January, only to give it threemonth reprieves, first to April 30 and then to July 31. Dell officials could not be reached for immediate comment. David Frink, a Dell spokesman, said in February that the decisions to keep the plant open are

HP settles patent violation cases PALO ALTO, Calif. (AP) — Hewlett Packard Co. said Thursday that it has reached a settlement with three companies that have been accused of infringing on the printer company’s patents for ink cartridges. HP filed a complaint with the U.S. International Trade Commission in September, seeking to ban imports of ink cartridges by 11 companies. Two of those companies — InkPlusToner.com of Canoga Park, Calif., and Comptree Inc. of City of Industry, Calif., have agreed to stop the imports and paid HP an undisclosed sum. HP expects to reach a similar agreement with Smartone Services LLC of Hayward, Calif. Zhuhai Gree Magneto-Electric Co. of China has asked an administrative law judge to end the commission’s investigation after agreeing to cease importing these ink cartridges.

FedEx sees signs of hope NEW YORK (AP) — FedEx says the global economic recovery is broadening, as Asia continues to see strong growth and the U.S. economy gains steam. Fred Smith, CEO of the world’s second-largest package delivery company, predicted a “relatively strong” first half as major economies emerge out of the recession followed by steady economic growth in the last six months of the year. FedEx expects U.S.

gross domestic product growth of about 3 percent this year, with growth led by the manufacturing sector, in line with the economists’ expectations. Still, Smith warned in a conference call Thursday that the housing market “could remain a problem.” The largely positive comments came after FedEx said that fiscal thirdquarter profit more than doubled from a year earlier. It was the first yearover-year profit increase

for the Memphis, Tennessee, shipping company in five quarters. FedEx also raised the forecast for full-year earnings — bringing it in line with Wall Street’s projections — on expectations of “a continued modest recovery in the global economy.” FedEx believes the strongest growth will continue in Asia, but the U.S. and Europe are following. The company, considered an economic bellwether because of the variety of products it ships,

said Thursday it earned $239 million, or 76 cents per share, compared with $97 million, or 31 cents per share a year earlier. Revenue rose 7 percent to $8.70 billion. The results exceeded Wall Street expectations for earnings of 72 cents per share and revenue of $8.37 billion. The company said results were boosted by higher shipping volume, particularly at its international express and Ground units.

Study puts Porsche on top NEW YORK (AP) — Porsche shot to the top of a closely watched study of long-term vehicle dependability, overtaking U.S. and Japanese rivals, J.D.

Lincoln came in second, while Buick and Lexus tied for third. Mercury and Toyota round-

ed out the top five. The annual study measures problems experienced by the original owners of vehicles after three years. In last year’s study, Buick and Jaguar tied for fewest problems, but both brands lost ground to rivals this year. U.S. brands had a particularly strong showing this year, reflecting concerted efforts in Detroit to catch up to foreign rivals who have traditionally dominated the

quality study, said David Sargent, J.D. Power’s vice president for vehicle research. Top-five finishers Lincoln and Mercury are owned by Ford Motor Co., while Buick is owned by General Motors Co. The Cadillac DTS full-sized sedan, which is sold by GM, was named highest-quality car overall. “The domestics are moving a little bit faster catching up,” Sargent said.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The current account trade deficit widened in the fourth quarter, reflecting an improving economy, but the imbalance for all of 2009 fell to the lowest point in eight years. Economists believe the deficit will increase in 2010 but not return to the record heights seen before the recession. The Commerce Department said Thursday the deficit in the October-December quarter jumped 12.9 percent to $115.6 billion, as imports of oil, autos and other foreign products outpaced the gains in U.S. exports. For the year, the deficit in the current account plunged by 40.5 percent to $419.9 billion, the smallest imbalance since 2001. Last year’s deficit represented 2.9 percent of the total U.S. economy, the smallest percentage in 11 years. The current account is the broadest measure of trade because it includes not only trade in goods and services, which are tracked by the government on a monthly basis, but also investment flows between countries.

Gas could top $3 this spring NEW YORK (AP) — U.S. motorists are paying the highest prices for gas since October 2008. Retail gasoline prices rose on Thursday on an expected increase in demand and as more expensive spring and summer blends of gasoline make their way to the pumps. The U.S. average hit $2.799 per gallon, a penny higher than Wednesday, according to AAA, Wright Express and Oil Price Information Service. Prices have now jumped 18.9 cents in the past month and are 87.9 cents higher than year-ago levels. Back on Oct. 23, 2008 prices aver-

aged $2.8215 per gallon. The Energy Department and many industry experts expect prices to top $3 this spring. Gasoline prices tend to move higher in the spring as more drivers hit the road and refiners shut down units for maintenance, as they prepare to make more expensive summer blends of gasoline with fewer smog-causing emissions. Wholesale gasoline prices also are at their highest point since October 2008. Americans now spend about a $1 billion a day to keep their cars and trucks filled, an increase of nearly

BRUSSELS (AP) — Greece warned Thursday that it will be forced to turn to the International Monetary Fund if the EU can’t agree to a bailout plan next week that will help reduce its market borrowing rates. Greece is paying a high price to sell bonds because investors fear its massive budget gap this year could cause it to default on debt payments. It needs to borrow some €54 billion ($74 billion) this year and €20 billion of that in April and May.

Continental wants exemption from rules NEW YORK (AP) — Continental Airlines Inc. has asked regulators for an exemption from new rules to punish airlines for long tarmac delays, saying construction at New York’s Kennedy Airport will slow operations at two other nearby airports. Continental joined a growing list of carriers asking not to be punished if they violate a new government rule limiting how long passengers can be delayed on the tarmac. JetBlue and Delta asked for exemptions from the rule last week, and American joined them on Tuesday.

Stocks end mixed NEW YORK (AP) — Major stock indexes ended mixed Thursday on more evidence that the economy is regaining strength at a slow pace. The Dow Jones industrial average rose for an eighth straight day, its longest unbroken climb since August. The Dow gained 46 points while broader indexes were little changed. Reports indicated that inflation remains in check and manufacturing is growing. The government said, however, that first-time claims for unemployment benefits only inched lower. The Labor Department said its Consumer Price Index was unchanged in February and that initial jobless claims fell last week. Meanwhile, the Philadelphia Federal Reserve said manufacturing in its region increased this month. The Conference Board, a private research group, said its index of leading indicators rose at a slow pace last month. “The market has been grinding higher on what has been benignly positive news,” said Alan Gayle, senior investment strategist for RidgeWorth Investments. “There is a growing sense the economy is plodding along in the right direction.” Renewed concern about economic troubles in Greece kept the gains in check. The country said it might turn to the International Monetary Fund for support if European leaders can’t agree to a bailout plan next week.

BRUSSELS (AP) — Norway’s Opera said Thursday that downloads of its browser more than doubled after Microsoft Corp. was forced to give European users a choice of Web software to settle European Union antitrust charges. Microsoft started sending updates to Windows computers in Europe in early March that launches a pop-up screen telling them to pick one or more of 12 free Web browsers to download and install, including Microsoft’s Internet Explorer.

Economic reports show mixed bag WASHINGTON (AP) — The picture of an economy growing modestly without producing inflation yet struggling to create jobs emerged from government reports Thursday. The number of newly laid-off workers requesting jobless benefits fell slightly last week for the third straight time. But initial claims remain above levels that would signal net job gains. New claims for unemployment aid fell 5,000 to a seasonally adjusted 457,000, the Labor Department said. That nearly matched analysts’ estimates of 455,000,

according to Thomson Reuters. In a separate report, the department said consumer prices were flat in February. A rise in food prices was offset by a drop in gasoline and other energy costs. Excluding the volatile food and energy categories, the core Consumer Price Index edged up just 0.1 percent last month, matching economists’ estimates. The report adds to evidence that the weak economy has all but erased inflation. That allows the Federal Reserve to continue to keep interest rates at record lows.

Britain’s car industry gets boost WOKING, England (AP) — Britain’s ailing car production industry received a big shot in the arm on Thursday as Nissan Motor Co., McLaren Automotive Ltd. and Spyker Cars N.V. all announced plans to build new models and Ford Motor Co. received a government grant to develop engines. The investments of more

than 2 billion pounds ($3.2 billion), including a new electric car, a high-end sports car and environmentally friendly engines, will safeguard thousands of British jobs and create hundreds more. Financial support from the British government was a critical factor in the green investment pledges from Nissan and Ford.

Mexico oil finds could yield 2 billion barrels MEXICO CITY (AP) — Mexico’s state-owned oil company said Thursday it has found deposits of up to 2 billion barrels of super-light and super-heavy oil in shallow waters of the Gulf of Mexico. Mexico’s proved, probable and potential reserves previously stood at 43.6 billion barrels. The director of Petroleos Mexicanos, Juan Jose

Suarez, said the AyatzilTekel and Tsimin-Xux fields were discovered over the last 2 years. Suarez said AyatzilTekel contains a total of 1 billion barrels of proven, probable and potential reserves of super-heavy crude. Tsimin-Xux contains a similar amount of super-light crude, he said. Oil fields off Mexico’s

largely Mayan-speaking southern Gulf coast are given Mayan names. Suarez spoke at a ceremony marking the 72nd anniversary of the 1938 expropriation of Mexico’s oil industry. Officials said the new discoveries and increasing production at some existing fields will help stem the decline in Mexico’s oil output.
