Perdue touts JobsNOW plan

BY DAVID NIVENS ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

GUILFORD COUNTY – A leading education advocacy group called on local and state leaders Friday to fully “invest” in education by funding the school district’s budget. The Guilford Education Alliance focused on the additional $6.4 million Superintendent Mo Green wants for the 2011 school district budget and state cutbacks that could total $29 million next year for the district. The $651.5 million budget Green presented to the Guilford County Board of Education on Tuesday seeks $187.4 million for the operations budget, up $3.4 million, to cover increased expenses and $7 million for repairs and maintenance, up $3 million. The $3.4 million would cover the cost of enrollment increases and $162,000 for the summer opening of the new $33 million Jamestown Middle School and nearby $10 million Haynes-Inman Education Center. “These additional dollars represent less than a 2 percent increase in local funding,” Margaret R. Arbuckle, Alliance executive director, said while standing with Alliance members in front of the Old Courthouse in Greensboro. The district wants the $3 million increase in maintenance funds partly to replace money from a discontinued state program. “We have buildings in great need of repair and maintenance, and these are the only funding sources to address these.” Arbuckle said. Without directly calling for tax increases, the Alliance urged state leaders “to identify funding sources beyond those now in place to ensure that no further cuts in public education are made and those already made are reinstated.” Arbuckle also encouraged the community to follow what leaders do and to speak out for education. “We want every option to be on the table,” Arbuckle said. “We hope there will be an open mind to support public education. Having a quality education builds the local economy and is an attraction for industry. Children who have a quality education grow up not to need social services and other government services.”

Governor proposes business initiative in Davidson County

RECOMMENDATIONS

–

The JobsNOW Small Business Package recommendations include: • Encourage investment in innovative small businesses through allowing favorable capital gains treatment by the founding interests in a business. • Provide a credit of $250 per employee to businesses that provide health insurance to employees making less than $45,000. The credit would apply to businesses with fewer than 25 employees. • Help North Carolina businesses order goods and services they need from other North Carolina firms through Web-based buyersupplier networks. • Reserve state construction projects under $500,000 for small businesses.

LEXINGTON – Gov. Beverly Perdue brought her message about economic renewal through small business promotion to one of the hardest-hit communities in the region. The governor, whose poll numbers have slid during her first year and four months in office as the recession took a toll on employment, unveiled her JobsNOW Small Business Package during a visit to the Fancy Pastry Shop in downtown Lexington. Perdue used the 41-year-old pastry business as a backdrop to tout a set of initiatives to pro-

General Assembly. “I could have done this anywhere in the state,” the first-term Democratic governor told a crowd of area politicians, business leaders and Lexington residents who packed the pastry shop. Perdue said she picked Lexington as one of her three stops Friday to roll out the initiative because the city epitomizes the grit of North Carolina communities. Despite painful setbacks with traditional job losses, the people of Lexington continue to work hard and reinvent their lo-

Lack of development has inspectors refocusing attention HIGH POINT – A downturn in construction activity and revisions to code enforcement procedures has allowed city officials to devote more attention to High Point’s backlog of blighted properties. The number of code enforcement officers and permit specialists handling minimum housing and public nuisance cases has increased as building permit requests have slowed to a virtual halt. So far this year, inspectors have closed an average of 44 housing cases per month, in some cases issuing orders to repair, vacate or demolish dilapidated and abandoned dwellings, or initiating the process that puts property owners on notice that their dwellings have suspected minimum housing code violations. That compares with a monthly average of about 14 cases handled per month during 2009. “You look at the map, we’re still an old city, and we have more houses coming on to the (housing cases) list,” City Manager Strib Boynton said during a recent City Council briefing session. “I think it’s been a good reassignment of people based on our skills.” The number of open cases stood

–

Between 1987 and 2006, city inspectors identified 262 minimum housing code cases, 39 of which remain open. Some have demolition actions pending and others have repairs in progress. Thirty-seven of the 262 properties were demolished by the city, 60 were demolished by the property owner and 126 were repaired by the property owner. From 2002 through April 5, city officials handled housing cases involving 1,321 structures, 1,021 of which have been cleared. Of the 300 active housing code cases, 78 are in the east central area of the city; 22 are in Southside; 21 are in the Washington Drive area; 16 are in Macedonia; 27 are in West End; and 136 are in the remainder of the city. at 300 as of April 5, which equates to about 70 per inspector. Typically, some properties are brought into compliance by the owners after they make necessary repairs. In some cases, owners elect to

demolish the properties on their own, and some are demolished by the city. Council members applauded the inspectors’ work but pointed out that the city’s budget only allows for so many cases to be dealt with each year. “I think they’re doing a great job, but it’s all about the money at this point,” said Councilman Bill Bencini. “We’re doing what we can with the resources we’ve got. If we put more money into it as far as staff and more money as far as tear downs, you’d probably see the numbers (of open housing cases) go down.” Dealing with the backlog of dilapidated housing can be slow going because state law requires that property owners be put on notice and given a chance to repair houses marked for demolition. The process can drag on for years and be complicated by the fact that a house’s owner may be deceased and their heirs scattered across the country and difficult to track down. “There’s a great deal of attention that is paid to due process, because we’re talking about someone’s real estate,” said Boynton. “We’ve never been challenged on due process.” pkimbrough@hpe.com | 888-3531

Perdue touts small business initiatives. 1A BY PAUL B. JOHNSON ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

LEXINGTON – Gov. Beverly Perdue said Friday a primary reason she hasn’t visited areas in Davidson County and High Point hit by the tornadoes is that she didn’t want a tour of the area to cause disruptions, especially with the upcoming spring High Point Market. Perdue addressed the issue during a questionand-answer session fol-

lowing her presentation of a small business initiative at the Fancy Pastry Shop in downtown Lexington. Some area residents have complained that the first-term Democratic governor hasn’t visited areas in Davidson County and north High Point affected by three tornado touchdowns the evening of March 28. Perdue did issue a state disaster declaration Thursday to allow residents and businesses who suffered damages to qualify for financial assistance. The governor said she spoke with High Point Mayor Becky Smothers, a Democrat and longtime friend of Perdue, and Re-

publican Guilford County Sheriff BJ Barnes about whether she should visit. Perdue said she didn’t want to draw national media attention so close to the furniture market, which could leave a “catastrophic” impression and discourage visitors from traveling to the Triad for the state’s largest single annual economic event. The spring market dates are April 17-22. Smothers confirmed to The High Point Enterprise the governor expressed reservations about visiting in the wake of the tornadoes. “She said to me, ‘I know you all have got to get a lot done before market.’

Police seek man on animal cruelty charges

I said we surely do,” the mayor said. “The clear impression I got is that the governor wanted to give us the most help she could. She recognized with her visit, the attention would be on her, not on the problems at hand.” Smothers said she agreed with the governor that her visit, in the midst of a cleanup, could become a distraction from recovering as quickly as possible in the wake of the storm. Barnes couldn’t be reached for comment by the Enterprise Friday afternoon.

cal economy, she said. Perdue’s small business proposal includes tax incentives, grants and an expansion of the small business preference for companies seeking contracts with state government. Legislators will convene in Raleigh in a month for the 2010 General Assembly session. Perdue received support

from the state’s leading small business trade association. The state chapter of the National Federation of Independent Business announced its backing for the JobsNOW proposals. The governor said the state “is in the early stages of recovery,” evidenced by several recent weeks of improving sales

tax revenue. But Perdue acknowledged the jobless rate remains far too high. The state’s unemployment rate in February was 11.8 percent. Davidson County’s jobless rate, at 14.3 percent, is one of the highest in the Piedmont, reflecting the legacy in recent years of the loss of furniture

and hosiery factories. Jump-starting small business growth, Perdue said, would help the state recover from what the governor termed “an equal opportunity recession.” Perdue also made stops in Fayetteville and Asheville. pjohnson@hpe.com | 888-3528

Authorities close Lexington license plate agency after arrests ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

DAVIDSON COUNTY – North Carolina Division of Motor Vehicles’ License and Theft Bureau inspectors Friday afternoon arrested the contractor and an employee of the Lexington license

Monte Evans was wanted by police on a charge of kidnapping her Sept. 27. Sally Evans was standing outside the Bojangles when she saw him in the parking lot.

Americans finally awake to this move to socialism Can we stop having this ridiculous discussion as to whether or not our socialist charlatan-inchief is a socialist, or what health care “reform” is really about? From the Washington Examiner: “Recently some prominent advocates of Obamacare have spoken more frankly than ever before about why they supported a national health care makeover. It wasn’t just about making insurance more affordable. It wasn’t just about bending the cost curve. It wasn’t just about cutting the federal deficit. It was about redistributing wealth.” Do you remember the charlatan telling us that he was disappointed the Supreme Court never got into redistributive policies? Duh, they are not socialists! On March 25, Sen. Baucus said, “Health reform is an income shift; it is a leveling to help lower income, middle income Americans.” Later, Howard Dean former DNC chairman and presidential candidate said the “health” bill was needed to correct “economic” inequities. Then Obamamedia hack and

New York Times liberal economics columnist David Leonhardt called Obamacare “the federal government’s biggest attack on ‘economic’ inequality (capitalism!) since inequality began rising more than three decades ago.” Then recently Al Sharpton who, until Obama, was the most famous community agitator to run for president, said that if you voted for Obama, “you voted for socialism.” At least most Americans are finally awakening. A recent CBS, usually liberal leaning, poll showed Obama with his lowest approval ever, 44 percent, down from 68 percent last April, and the lowest approval for his health care destruction plan, an anemic 35 percent. Adjust those numbers for huge support from Demo-Rats, and his 99.9 percent support from the group-think Lemming-Americans to see where the charlatan stands in mainstream America! We are now almost where we were 230 years ago when our Founding Fathers fought against an oppressive, government to shed the yoke of tyranny and regain precious liberty. TONY MOSCHETTI High Point

My story of Easter’s origin includes Jesus On April 3, Robert Healy wrote a column on rebirth and resurrection as his expression of the meaning of Easter. He cites an old story in mythology about Eostre, goddess of spring, fertility and rebirth. Healy wrote, “I love the story that is basis for the Easter Bunny ...” and proceeds to tell us how viewing a bunny nibbling leaves had brought him “such a sense of pure happiness.” He concludes, “It is from this myth, being handed down from generation to generation, that we have today what we call the Easter Bunny and the Easter Eggs we love to color, and it is from the goddess Eostre that we get the name of the holiday of Easter itself.” Easter, or “Eastre,” was the name of a pagan festival that began at about the same time of year as the paschal festival of the church. The resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead was only days from the paschal festival and at about the same time of the Healy-referenced story in mythology of the reincarnation of

the bird into “the Easter Bunny” which could lay all those “brilliantly colored eggs.” Life experiences impact each of us to forge a belief system. It is easy for one to come to “love the story that is basis of the Easter Bunny” and declare to the world that “it is from the goddess Eostre that we get the name of the holiday of Easter itself.” My belief system concerning Easter is based on holy Scripture, with particular emphasis on the gospels. Therefore, my belief in the story of Easter is totally based on the biblical account of Christ’s death for human sin and His glorious resurrection. That is where Christians get the name for Easter. When I think of Easter, Jesus Christ comes to my mind. JAMES M. CAPPS High Point

As the Obama administration opens parts of the East Coast to energy exploration, let’s hope the president keeps those words in mind. President Barack Obama has generally been opposed to offshore drilling, and the move is seen as a concession to Republicans as the president tries to craft a comprehensive energy bill that focuses on renewable energy. Even those who support offshore drilling will find little in this bill to get excited about. The areas being opened for drilling – including waters off North Carolina – are not especially promising. For example, the tracts opened off Virginia are estimated to hold 130 million barrels of oil. That’s how much the U.S. imports from all foreign suppliers in two weeks. In other words, as a seemingly reluctant Obama put it, “Drilling alone can’t come close to meeting our long-term energy needs.” Some of the most promising areas – in the Pacific Northwest and Alaska – will remain closed because of environmental concerns. The heavily fished northeastern and New England areas – basically north of Delaware – also remain closed. In North Carolina, the most likely sites for exploration are off the Outer Banks region, which is almost completely reliant on tourism and is home to an especially fragile ecosystem and a large commercial and recreational fishing industry. A spokesman for state Sen. Marc Basnight, a Democrat who owns a restaurant near Manteo, summed it up pretty well: “He’s open to the possibility, but extremely concerned.” Even if offshore wells were up and running, there has been little interest in building petrochemical processing facilities in North Carolina. So don’t count on an economic boon for North Carolina coastal counties. Meanwhile, the damage caused by a spill could be devastating to local economies. If there were 50 – even 25 – years’ worth of fuel off our shores, the risk becomes more palatable. We shall see. For now, however, it seems the president has thrown a bone to the GOP to silence that big dog that keeps barking, “Drill, baby, drill.” Let’s hope that dog doesn’t come back to bite us.

New Israeli settlements are impediments to peace

alph Waldo Emerson writes: “I do not wish to treat friendships daintily, but with the roughest courage. When they are real, they are not glass threads or frostwork, but the solidest thing we know.” Emerson’s words about friendship apply to the United States’ relationship with Israel; we are friends, so let us be truly honest with the Jewish nation. Let us say that we did not appreciate the startling announcement about new Jewish settlement construction in East Jerusalem. We’re also sorry that Vice President Biden was treated discourteously during his limited peace-brokering visit to Israel in early March. Surprises are not good for diplomacy. Let us say that there will be no peace between Israel and the Palestinians as long as Israel merely pretends to support a twostate solution. Israel’s recent decision to construct new houses in East Jerusalem is contrary to stated conditions for peace bargaining. Our nation has told Israel that new settlements must end. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu responds by saying that “Jerusalem is not a settlement. It is the capital of Israel.” He closes down negotiations, claiming the land for the Jewish state. His hard line is disheartening. Netanyahu’s reaction should be greeted with sadness around the world. The scope of his actions is that great and disconcerting. Israel’s moves affect every man, woman, and child. What happens in Israel resounds in rural and urban places. When Israel is at peace, there is international security. Our own national security is enhanced when the Jewish nation is working for peace: worldwide violent incidents might subside with encouragement reaching farms and cities around the globe.

That is why we must continue to require that building in East Jerusalem be stopped. Or Israel should face some consequence. Maybe, we could adjust our aid package as added leverage or negotiate with the sale of arms to the country. OPINION The Israelis should not be able to ignore the United States and Kristine its attempt to bring a lasting Kaiser calm to the Middle East. Our ■■■ interests are too strong. We have passively stood by and watched Israel miss many opportunities for peace. We noted the 2006 Lebanon War, gave the green light when Israel invaded Gaza. Israel has sometimes been heavyhanded, responding harshly to its threats. If one Israeli is injured, three opponents go down. The country seems uneven in its retaliations. And we have supported its every action, often looking the other way in the name of sturdy friendship. We have denounced the flawed Goldstone Report with its claims about Israeli war crimes and abuses. Today, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton seeks tough “biting” sanctions against Iran for its undeterred nuclear program. We promise to protect Israel in the event of war. Iran is Israel’s archenemy. Iran denies Israel’s right to exist; its leader has denied the Holocaust. On our end, we have fulfilled expectations of friendship to Israel. However, friendship goes both ways. Israel must first and basically come to understand that while we support its people; we cannot ignore the peace process. The security of the world hinges on it.

The ins and outs of Easter S

ince Easter Sunday morning when we celebrated the greatest event of history – the resurrection of Jesus Christ from death and the sealed tomb – it seems as though the earth has groaned, erupted and been shaken once more. We have read about the earthquakes, tornados, storms, fires and explosions. Monday, I was talking with a cousin, Alex Perry, who lives with his wife, Montena, close to Kitty and me. It was a beautiful day and all seemed to be peaceful and calm. A short time later, “Tena” got word that five of her cousins were involved with the coal mine accident at Montcoal, WV. At 3 p.m., a gigantic force sent shock waves of terror throughout Southern West Virginia, some 50 miles from where we live. Three of her cousins were killed and two escaped injury. Early that morning there was an earthquake in Sutton, WV. At least 25 miners died in that horrific blast that “twisted iron rails like pretzels”,

SHARING THE SPIRIT Bill Ellis ■■■

according to Governor Joe Manchin. Four miners are still unaccounted for. An all-out effort is now under way in drilling hundreds of feet into the operational areas so that poison gases can be released and fresh air pumped in with the hope that this might lead to the rescue of those four miners. Manchin’s uncle was among 77 miners killed in the 1968 accident in his hometown of Farmington,

WV. The people of this great state, so rich in natural resources, have remarkable courage and faith. They know how to face disaster. This is not a new experience for mining families. Members of my family have been injured in mining accidents and a cousin Oliver “Tody” Hodge, a young man who had just returned from

Air Force duty in France many years ago, was killed in an underground mining accident. Following a beautiful and exciting Easter Day, it seems like tragedy has now fallen upon many. How do we deal with the tragedies and sins of the day? Our world and our nation have seen better days and not many days worse than the present in the last 50 years. Our United States Congress is at its lowest level of respect. Cheating, lying, adultery and the inability to lead seem to plague every area of government – local, state and national. There are those who seem to be determined to destroy the nation I have known and loved during my lifetime. Our military is being weakened, the economy is in shambles, debt both for families and the nation is at an all-time high. God is mocked. Read the last chapters of the Four Gospels – Matthew, Mark, Luke and John – the days following the resurrection of

Jesus. There was turmoil, doubt, lack of confidence and fear in those days. Jesus speaking to His disciples shortly before ascending into heaven said to them: “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations . . . and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age” (Matthew 28:19-20). In our day, I am still clinging to His promise to be with us to the very end. On the Sunday before Jesus was nailed to a cruel cross in crucifixion, there were great crowds who wanted to crown Him king because they were excited by the miracles He performed. A week later, they had to become followers or just fans of Jesus. The Rev. Dr. Melissa Pratt spoke to her congregation on the “Ins and Outs of Easter.” The point was that Jesus went into a tomb in death and came out three days later to be forever, for all who believe in Him, their Savior and Lord.

Authenticity

Ecclesiastes 3: 1-2 hat does it mean to be authentic? Honesty, integrity and authenticity usually go hand in hand. Persons who are authentic are honest with themselves, and by extension, will be honest with others as well. As Shakespeare put it, “To thine These things I have spoken unto own self be true, and it must you, that in me ye might have follow, as the night the day, peace. In the world ye shall have thou canst not then be false tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world. to any man.” Being true to John 16:33 oneself is what integrity is all about, being whole and having a unified personality that is not in conflict with itself, and can present itself honestly in a variety of situations. This is not an easy task, because we often don’t know exactly who we are. When someone tells you to “just be yourself,” you are often left wondering exactly who that is. Young people frequently go through periods where they try on different selves or identities. The term “identity crisis” was coined by the psychologist Erik Erikson to describe the period in late adolescence when we struggle with who we are and must make decisions that will affect our identity, such as career choices and choices about friends. But identity crises are not limited to teenagers. Our whole life is one long identity crisis, where we must figure out at each critical juncture who we want to be.

Behold, You desire truth in the inward parts, and in the hidden part You will make me to know wisdom.

n the 300s and 400s in Egypt, a number of men and women decided to live in the desert in order to escape the business of life and to focus on God. This was the beginning of the monastic (or monk) movement. Some lived singly in caves, while others built houses and lived in small communities. A number of teachings and sayings of the spiritual leaders have been passed down in what is known as the Apophthegmata Patrum, or Sayings of the Desert Fathers. This column will share some of these. (Some Sayings have appeared in a previous article; these Sayings are different ones.) (These sayings are each around 1600 years old.

ARCHDALE – The Archdale City Council this month is set to consider a minimum housing ordinance that could allow the city deem several homes as unfit for human habitation. At the City Council’s retreat two years ago, members of the governing body directed staff to create a minimum housing ordinance because they were concerned about some of the aging housing units in the city. Jeff Wells, Archdale’s planning director, said the city’s planning board unanimously approved the minimum housing ordinance this week. The City Council will consider the minimum housing ordinance at 7 p.m. April 27. The ordinance “will be basically on a complaint basis, but it does give us the right if we do see something that needs immediate attention out in the field to do some type of action on it,” Wells said. A housing study conducted by city staff has revealed there are some houses within the city in a substandard or dilapidated condition. Wells said in February during the City Council’s retreat that some of the homes are occupied. According to city officials, the primary objective of the ordinance is the safety and welfare of Archdale’s citizens, as opposed to aesthetics. “This proposed ordinance would serve as protection for our citizens from unsanitary and/or unsafe living conditions,” said Zeb Holden, the city’s code enforcement officer. “These circumstances are most likely to occur as a result of the inaction of an absentee or unwilling landlord in a rental situation. However, the regulations would apply to all residential structures including owner occupied dwellings.” Under the proposed ordinance, staff will have the ability to require some homes to meet certain requirements for living conditions and require property owners to repair or demolish homes that do not meet the requirements of the ordinance. According to the ordinance, there are 10 substandard conditions outlined within the ordinance that would immediately qualify the dwelling as “unfit for human habitation,” such as floors or roofs unable to support loads, interior walls that are leaning, and a lack of proper electrical or plumbing facilities. The planning director or an inspector could deem a dwelling as unfit for human habitation if seven or more minimum standards are not met during an inspection. dignasiak@hpe.com | 888-3657

Candidates for board of commissioners face off BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

DAVIDSON COUNTY – Candidates vying for four seats on the Davidson County Board of Commissioners focused on the topic of creating jobs during a forum Friday. Of the 16 candidates for the board, eight of them attended the forum at Piedmont Crossing Retirement Community. Incumbents Don Truell, Sam Watford and Billy Joe Kepley, as well as challengers Jason Hedrick, Owen Moore, Eddie Gallimore, Kenneth Cavender and Larry Allen, attended the forum. “Everybody here is going to tell you that we need jobs,” Truell said. “That’s going to be the priority during the next four years. That is going to be the priority for everyone. We have lost a lot of jobs – especially, over the last six or seven years with the furniture industry moving out.” Watford, who is also a business owner, said he had made efforts recently as a commissioner to encourage companies to invest and create jobs in Davidson County. Last year, Watford led efforts to get several of the county’s municipalities to adopt a policy that allows the cities to provide incentives to any business that invests $50,000 when the county’s

unemployment rate has been at or above 10 percent in the last six months “Anybody who is in business for their self, you know that we are getting the same amount of work with less people,” he said. “It’s still going to be that way.” Kepley said the county should do more to promote Lexington’s rich heritage of barbecue. He also said he had tried unsuccessfully several times to solicit K&W Cafeterias to locate in Davidson County. Hedrick, the lone Democrat who attended the forum, said he wanted to help out the community through economic development and job growth. “If we get our people back working, our economic development will follow,” he said. “I want to do what we can to make Davidson County proactive in searching for jobs and business, whether it be restaurants or manufacturing” Allen, a former commissioner who lost in his bid for re-election in 2008, said that commissioners need to market Davidson County better. “We’ve got market Davidson County,” he said. “We’ve got to promote things like our geographical friendly location, our low tax rate and a workforce ready to go to work.”

Gallimore, who ran unsuccessfully for commissioner in 2008, said he believes it’s time for new people to start working to take Davidson County into the future. “The jobs in the county, they are bad,” he said. “I am in the construction business, so I know how it really hurts, House building is way down, so my work is few, far and between ... I think it’s time for new leadership to start being involved in the county.” Cavender also expressed concern about jobs. “When it comes to jobs, nobody is more concerned about jobs than I am,” he said. “Six years ago, I was the plant manager at a plant in Welcome. All of the manufacturing jobs moved to China.. After that, there were no jobs available. We need to work on commercial development and do everything we can to help existing businesses to grow.” Davidson County voters will be able to vote for four commissioner candidates during the May 4 primary. Davidson County Board of Commissioners Chairman Max Walser, who was up for re-election this year, chose not to run again. dignasiak@hpe.com | 888-3657

UNC board approves pharmacy partnership CHAPEL HILL (AP) – The University of North Carolina Board of Governors has approved UNC-Chapel Hill’s plan to expand its pharmacyeducation program to UNC Asheville in partnership with Mission Health System. Approval came during the board’s meeting on Friday. Officials said the UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy will create a satellite pharmacy

program based at UNC Asheville. It is an expansion of the partnership between the pharmacy school and Elizabeth City State University that dates back to 2005. That program will graduate its second class in May. Like its counterpart at ECSU, the satellite program at UNC Asheville will educate more pharmacists in an area of North Carolina that doesn’t have enough health-care providers.

Sentencing phase begins in NC Army slaying case FORT BRAGG (AP) – Military jurors began sentencing hearings Friday to determine if a soldier convicted of murder in the slayings of a North Carolina mother and her two children will get the death penalty or life in prison. Master Sgt. Timothy Hennis was found guilty of three counts of premeditated murder Thursday for the slayings of 31-year-old Kathryn Eastburn and her young daughters in their Fayetteville home in 1985. The Fayetteville Observer reported that Jana Eastburn, 24, testified she has no memory of her mother or two older sisters and that when she saw other mothers she wished she had her own. Jana Eastburn, then 22-months-old, was at the home during the murders but was left unharmed in her crib.

The seed holds the secret of nature Y

ou may not remember it, but back in elementary school, you learned about lifeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s greatest miracle that takes place on Earth every day. A miracle from nature that releases stored energy to create staples of life by simply applying water. The natural miracles are seeds, which are little packets of energy waiting to be released to create food, fuel and fiber that sustain our lives. Water applied to seeds releases the stored energy. A careful analysis of seeds shows that seeds contain a tiny plant embryo and stored energy around it â&#x20AC;&#x201C; in the form of carbohydrates, such as plant sugars â&#x20AC;&#x201C; to get the embryo growing. An application of water to the seed stimulates the birth of the embryo into a mature plant. Of course, after emergence, plant embryos need to be supported by soil and receive some amount of sunshine to create more carbohydrates from photosynthesis. In recent years, seed sales to gardeners have grown up to 75 percent.

According to the Home Garden Seed Association, there are some good reasons for this increase. â&#x20AC;˘ Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll save money. A single packet of seeds will give you dozens of plants â&#x20AC;&#x201C; which translates ECOLOGY to armloads of flowers and vegetables. Gwyn â&#x20AC;˘ Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have more Riddick varieties to choose from. â&#x2013; â&#x2013; â&#x2013; There are thousands of varieties available as seeds, while just a few are sold as transplants. â&#x20AC;˘ Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s easy and fun. Planting a seed and watching it grow is one of the most rewarding pastimes. â&#x20AC;˘ Grow your own food. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s easy to grow lettuce, squash and fresh nutritious vegetables in your own backyard. â&#x20AC;˘ Some plants grow best from seed. When you go to the garden center, you probably wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t find bean, carrot, pea, radish or sunflowers as transplants, because these plants are easy to grow

PET OF THE WEEK

directly in the garden from seed. The seed association has made a list of the Top Ten Easiest Plants to Grow from Seed. That means they can be sown directly in the garden and there is no need to start them indoors and they usually germinate quickly. The Top Ten are beans, cosmos flower, cucumber, lettuce, peas, pumpkin, radish, squash, sunflower and zinnia flowers. I grow beans, cucumbers, radishes, lettuces, squashes, okra, leafy greens and melons from seed. Tomatoes, eggplant, peppers and cole crops from transplants. It is easy to grow great productive plants from seeds. Prepare the soil by tilling to make a loose, weed-free soil. Be sure to do a soil test for pH and need for nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. Adjust the pH in our area with dolomitic gray limestone and till into the soil. I usually add 10-10-10 fertilizer before tilling. Read the seed packets, which tell you how deep and how far apart to

plant the seeds and how to cover them with soil. To germinate, the seeds need water, and the young seedlings need a consistent supply of water to remain healthy and grow strong. Each year, try a new variety or a new vegetable that will expand your culinary palate. Maybe try some fennel, which has a fresh anise-flavor in its fleshy bulb and foliage. It is a great vegetable for salads, grilling and soups. I cooked some as braised vegetables with some salmon a few weeks ago. Depending upon the seed and variety, you will enjoy an abundant harvest of fresh vegetables and armfuls of beautiful flowers.

Students visiting campuses should come prepared D

Expanded art museum to be much brighter RALEIGH (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The North Carolina Museum of Artâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new building marries light and white in a way that designers say shows off the works to their best advantage, leaving nothing to color visitorsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; view of the art. The 127,000-square-foot expansion opens to the public April 24, but reporters got to see the approximately 750 works in their new home on Tuesday. The lightness and airiness of the museum are meant to emphasize the art, yet are as important to the building as the works themselves. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We wanted to push it to the limit,â&#x20AC;? Dan Gottlieb, the museumâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s director of planning and design, said of the lack of color. If the design had included color on any wall, â&#x20AC;&#x153;we would have been compromising the singular notion of having this as an experience of light and art. ... This building is about making a pure experience so that whether itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a Renaissance painting or contemporary art, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re bringing natural light and the absence of color so that all thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s left is the art work.â&#x20AC;? Even the museumâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s curator of European art â&#x20AC;&#x201C; who was accustomed to seeing Old Masters hanging on deeply colored walls and was skeptical of the all-white concept â&#x20AC;&#x201C; said he accepted the whiteness.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;I tell you, when you see them here, when you see the daylight coming in from the side, these pictures sing, and they look so different,â&#x20AC;? curator David Steel said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a different way of experiencing this collection. Even for me as a curator, who has lived with these pictures for more than 25 years, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a revelation to see them in this kind of light.â&#x20AC;? New York-based architects Thomas Phifer and Partners designed the building, using light in a way that designers say has never been seen in a museum.

She has always been a Type-A overachiever, but for the past year and a half, she has been more stressed than usual. School consumes Elizabeth, but not in a good way. She stays up until 3 a.m. cramming for tests even though she studies for several days before. She gets angry and depressed when she doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get an A on an assignment. She puts a lot of pressure on herself, and her parents donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem to recognize it. My friend doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sleep much and eats very little. At first, I told myself that I was overreacting by worrying about her. However, last night she was hospitalized for exhaustion and anemia.

ear Abby: This is a time when high school seniors visit prospective colleges. Could you please convey the following suggestions to them? 1. Wear comfortable shoes. You will be doing an awful lot of walking. 2. Come prepared for the weather. Twelve hundred people attended a recruiting session today, and at least one-fourth of them did not come with umbrellas. A thunderstorm began at 4 p.m., and they wondered why we didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t provide umbrellas! 3. Come with a list of questions and bring something to write on, plus a tote bag to carry any materials you receive. 4. Read the materials you were sent. If they say check-in begins at 8 a.m., then plan to be there at 8 a.m. 5. You will be receiving a lot of information, so you should plan on making a return trip to the two or three institutions you visited that you liked the most. 6. We will show you one or two residence hall rooms. We cannot show you all of the halls. In order to inspect them all, you will need to come on a Residence Hall Open House day.

CROSSWORD

Saturday, April 10, 2010 CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Haley Joel Osment, 22; Mandy Moore, 26; Ryan Merriman, 27; Steven Seagal, 59 HAPPY BIRTHDAY: It will be difficult to backtrack this year, leaving you little room for error. Focus on home, family and getting the most for the least. Overindulgence in any way will hold you back. A responsibility you have to carry is likely to take an unexpected turn. Your numbers are 9, 11, 20, 24, 36, 41, 48 ARIES (March 21-April 19): Keep things honest and out in the open instead of letting them fester out of control. Look at whatever situation you are facing and deal with it swiftly so you can move on to more pleasurable pastimes. ★★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Volunteer to help a group with which you share the same beliefs and you will make new friends. You will be persuasive and, although it will help you entice people you don’t know well to get involved in your cause, it won’t please close family and friends. ★★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Don’t take the chance of making someone angry because you cannot keep a secret. Busy yourself with a hobby or something that will earn you more money. Making an investment in yourself will better your chance of getting ahead. ★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): Do something you’ve always wanted to do. You will not only be glad you did, you will impress the people you care about the most. You can enhance your partnership with someone by making the effort to please. ★★★★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): It will take everything you’ve got to avoid a nasty confrontation over a promise never fulfilled. Your Leo charm will be put to the test and diplomacy will be a must. Demands will be made and, if you are responsible, you can turn things around. ★★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Get together with the people who inspire and motivate you and mix a little business with pleasure. Love is in the stars and a relationship can be started or enhanced. An old friend will do something unexpected. ★★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Good fortune can be yours but only if you are willing to go the distance required. Use your imagination to come up with an idea that will be easy to sell. Taking action will make a positive statement about you. ★★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Put everything on the back burner and focus on the people who need your attention. Free up more time for friends and family. Love is in the stars – all you have to do is recognize who’s been waiting for you to notice. ★★★★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Someone or something will tempt you to get involved in something you should avoid. Don’t let your head rule your heart. An unexpected change at home will leave you in an emotional quandary that will be difficult to fix. ★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Remembering the good times will encourage you to reunite with old friends. Your gestures will lead to an interesting encounter with someone you used to find refreshing and motivating. Love is in the stars. ★★★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You can make a mistake that will be difficult to reverse if you aren’t upfront about the way you feel and what you have to offer. The changes you make now can easily affect your financial status. ★★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Share your thoughts, plans and intentions. Once you have made up your mind, it will be easier to move forward with or without the help of others. Romance is looking good and plans for two should be made for the evening hours. ★★★

For improvisation on defense, West’s effort in today’s deal would be hard to match. Against 3NT, West led a heart in response to East’s overcall. Declarer won the third heart and then set about establishing the clubs without letting East get in. To lead the ace and a low club wouldn’t work, but South led a spade to dummy and returned the queen of clubs. When East’s king covered, declarer was in good shape. He could take the ace, force out West’s jack and have four club tricks, three spades and a heart, with a diamond trick to come. But under the ace of clubs, West dumped his jack!

HOROSCOPE

DAILY QUESTION

THIRD SPADE

You hold: S Q J 10 H A 10 3 D 9 8 4 C A 10 8 2. Your partner opens one spade, you respond two clubs and he bids two hearts. What do you say?

Now South thought he was safe even if East had the ace of diamonds. South led a spade to dummy and returned a club to his eight. To his chagrin, West produced the nine and led a third spade. When South led a diamond next, West won and cashed the 13th spade for the setting trick. The West who beat this unbeatable game was Bobby Goldman (1938-1999), a multiple world champion.

ANSWER: When you picked up this hand, you had enough values to invite game if your partner opened the bidding. But his two calls have improved your hand: All of your honors will be useful. Bid three spades, forcing. Partner may make four spades even if he has a minimum hand such as A K 9 6 4, K Q 4 2, 7 6, 7 6. East dealer Both sides vulnerable

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.

Cramps cramping tennis game

ear Dr. Donohue: I have played tennis since high school, 40 years ago. I continue to play yearround with a group of competitive and highly skilled players. In the past few months, I have been having cramps in my calves to the point I have to stop playing. What can I do to prevent them? – D.K.

BLONDIE

Cramps are involuntary, painful and sustained muscle contractions. Cramps that occur during exercise are similar to cramps that plague older people during sleep, but the circumstances in which they happen are quite different. The cause of exerciseinduced muscle cramps hasn’t been determined. Dehydration is thought to be a factor, as is electrolyte imbalance. Electrolytes are things like sodium, potassium and bicarbonate. Some believe that calcium or magnesium deficiencies are involved. A temporary reduction of blood flow to the cramping muscle is another explanation. Fatigue with depletion of the muscle’s glycogen is another theory. Glycogen is stored muscle sugar. A shotgun approach to prevention is the only way to find out what works for you. Stay hydrated. That means drink before and during play, even if you aren’t thirsty. Some, but not all, of the fluid can be from a sports drink. Sports drinks supply potassium, sodium and other minerals.

is almost intuitive. For a calf cramp, sit or lie down and extend the cramped HEALTH leg. Stretch the calf Dr. Paul muscles by Donohue pulling the ■■■ front of the foot toward the shins. Massaging the cramped muscle relieves the spasm. Before playing, stretch the leg muscles, especially the calf muscles. Stand on a curb or a step with your heels projecting off the step. Rise as high as possible on your toes, then lower the heels below the level of the step as far as you can. Repeat the exercise 10 to 20 times. Dear Dr. Donohue: Friends and I play tennis three to four times weekly. Our ages range from mid-50s to early 60s. We have played for many years, indoors in winter and outside in summer, and we are all in good physical condition. Many of us suffer from calf cramps hours after playing. The pain is horrible. We have tried eating bananas, taking potassium and taking magnesium. I even found an over-thecounter medicine with quinine. Nothing helps. Please advise. – L.P. I’m flying by the seat of my pants on this. After playing, do the calf stretches I just outlined. Starting the day before playing and on the morn-

ing of play, increase the carbohydrates in your diet. Eat things like pasta and pancakes to pack your muscles with glycogen – stored muscle sugar. Depletion of glycogen could be causing the cramps. Don’t use quinine. It’s not supposed to be on shelves. The dangers from quinine outweigh any benefits that come from taking it. Dear Dr. Donohue: My son is a wrestler. I have heard him talking with his friends about “making weight.” I take that to mean losing weight so they wrestle in a lower weight category. Is this safe? My son isn’t overweight. He is muscular, but his weight isn’t excessive. – A.B. Deliberately losing weight to compete in a lower weight class is dangerous. In 1997, three collegiate wrestlers died when they took measures to drop pounds quickly. Fasting, vomiting after eating, taking diuretics and deliberately dehydrating oneself by prolonged use of a sauna or steam room can cause serious perturbations in body chemistry that are potentially lethal. Step in. Don’t allow your son even to consider “making weight.” DR. DONOHUE regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but he will incorporate them in his column whenever possible.

British pair charges to top AUGUSTA, Ga. (AP) — Tiger Woods still has his game. Now he finds out if his name high on the leaderboard means what it once did. In a Masters that gets more compelling by the day, two faces of England’s golf revival — Lee Westwood and Ian Poulter — handled a tougher Augusta National on Friday to share the lead as both chase their first major championship. Poulter, who once boasted that it would be just him and Woods when he reached his potential, made his only bogey on the 18th hole for a second straight 68. Westwood

had everything from an eagle to a double bogey in his wild round of 69. Westwood They were at 8-under 136, the first time either of them has been in the lead in a major. Two shots behind was Woods, a position that has surprised just about everybody except him. “I usually put myself in contention most of the time here,” Woods said after a 2-under 70. “And this year, I’m right there.” If that’s not enough,

Phil Mickelson is along for the ride. Mickelson needed a birdie on the 18th hole Poulter to be paired with Woods, just as they were in the final round last year. His 65-foot putt banged off the back of the cup before spinning away, giving Lefty a 71. Woods and Mickelson were at 138, along with K.J. Choi, Ricky Barnes and Anthony Kim, the sassy young American coming off a victory last week in the Houston Open.

–

Leaders: Ian Poulter and Lee Westwood, both of England and both at 8 under 136. Just behind: Five players are two shots back, including Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson. Who else? Joining Woods and Mickelson at 138 were K.J. Choi, Ricky Barnes and Anthony Kim. Senior moments: First round leader Fred Couples bogeyed the last three holes and was five back. Tom Watson followed his first round of 67 with a 74 and was also at 141. Youth movement: Matteo Manassero, an amateur from Italy who is the youngest player in the field at age 16, made the cut at 147. Missing in action: Among those missing the cut were David Duval, Rory McIlroy and Vijay Singh. Key stat: Tiger Woods is 8 under for two days on the par-5s, and 2 over for the other 28 holes. Noteworthy: Neither Poulter nor Westwood have ever been in the lead after any round of a major championship.

DON DAVIS JR. | HPE

Michael Dimock of Wake Forest (left) and Mikel Rodenberg of High Point University, who played together in high school at High Point Wesleyan, enjoyed a reunion when the Deacons and Panthers met this week. berg, who grew up in High Point and attended Wesleyan from his eighth-grade year. “I could tell he had some talent and I just wanted to help him make the transition. He became one of my friends in the process.” Dimock, who hails from Greensboro, arrived at Wesleyan as a freshman and remembers Rodenberg serving as a mentor from the start. “I was a freshman, still growing up, trying to find out where I fit in in baseball,” Dimock recalled. “He kind of took me under his wing, showed me the way to go, how the game should be played. I looked up to him.” Both players are looking for big things to close their college careers. Rodenberg, a 5-foot-9, 175-pounder, tore a ligament in his elbow during his final prep season and endured Tommy John surgery. He took a red-shirt year for the Panthers as a true freshman and appeared in just 12 games during the 2008 season. Last year proved painful on the stat sheet for Rodenberg, who

said coaches experimented with his delivery in hopes of improving his effectiveness. Little worked in 13 appearances, as Rodenberg finished 0-2 with an earned run average of 12.89. In the fall, though, Rodenberg found his niche. After making nine starts in the first 25 appearances of his college career, he told coach Craig Cozart that he wanted to be the go-to arm in the bullpen. “I asked for it,” Rodenberg said. “Coach said he didn’t know where he saw me as either a starter or a closer and I told him I wanted the closer spot. It’s good to have that role.” He’s been pretty fair in it, notching five saves and a 1-1 record to go with an ERA of 8.44 in 11 appearances. As for Dimock, he wanted no part of the closer’s role for the Demon Deacons. The 6-2, 192-pound true sophomore got a mix of starts and relief appearances last year while compiling a 4-4 record with two saves and a 6.46 ERA for coach Mike Rembielak.

When Wake made a change and brought in Tom Walter to lead the program, Dimock initially got the closer job before being promoted to weekend starter this spring. “I was stoked. I couldn’t believe it. I just tried to work hard all fall, all summer break,” Dimock said. “At first I was the closer and they knocked me up to the Friday night starter to see what happened.” Dimock owns a 1-5 record in the rough-and-tumble ACC, with his earned run average at 6.47. He’s pitched consistently against the likes of Georgia Tech and Miami, striking out 25 to go with just nine walks. Last year his control also sparkled with 51 Ks and just 16 walks. “Dimock was a kid we knew had a chance to be a high-level D-I kid,” Davis said. “Rodenberg came from nowhere.” They were somewhere Wednesday – together again, more friends than foes in opposite D-I dugouts. shanf@hpe.com | 888-3526

MASTERS AT A GLANCE

Wesleyan friends glad to be foes ormer teammates became opponents for the second time this spring when High Point University met Wake Forest. Wednesday’s game at Gene Hooks Field posed no threat of an on-field meeting between Mikel Rodenberg and Michael SPORTS Dimock, but the former Wesleyan Steve Christian Academy Hanf standouts did enjoy ■■■ a pregame chat before Wake Forest’s 8-7 victory. “It sort of feels like years ago, but we come from such a small environment and back then we didn’t think we’d play any further than high school,” Dimock said. “Here we are playing against each other on the next level. It’s a lot of fun considering where we came from.” Rodenberg came first, a junior pitcher for the Trojans when a top-notch freshman joined Wesleyan’s talented mound staff. Together, they helped coach Scott Davis’ team become a force to be reckoned with in the N.C. Independent Schools Athletic Association 3A ranks, not bringing home a championship but setting the stage for Wesleyan’s 2008 title. “They were uniquely different in their development,” Davis recalled. “Michael Dimock as a ninth-grader was a frontline guy for us and developed into the best pitcher we ever had at Wesleyan. Rodenberg was a good player for us four years, an excellent catcher – he played second base, third base. I never really envisioned him as a Division I pitcher.” After high school, Rodenberg would recover from surgery on his pitching arm in time to make an impact for HPU, while Dimock eventually worked his way into the weekend starting rotation for the Demon Deacons. Despite the challenges presented by their different class and game schedules, the players remain in contact with text messages and on social networking sites. “He first came in the summer to one of our camps,” said Roden-

WHO’S NEWS

Turner Field on opening day – the largest crowd ever in Atlanta for a day game – by drilling a three-run, 440-foot homer to right field in his first at-bat. Welcome to the show, young man. Heyward’s already blessed with a cool nickname – the J-Hey Kid – that triggers memories of another great outfielder of the past. At 6-foot-5, 240 pounds, Heyward possesses all the physical tools to be a superstar. His quick bat and fluid motion in the field

have superstardom written all over them. The chance to break in for legendary manager Bobby Cox – the ultimate player’s skipper and a great source of baseball wisdom – can only help Heyward’s learning curve. It’s going to be fun watching Heyward’s development. Braves fans hope it leads to great things in a hurry. I wouldn’t be surprised.

CONWAY, S.C. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Nate Roberts doubled in a run and came around to score in the ninth inning but it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t enough as High Point Univeristyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rally fell short in a 10-9 loss to Coastal Carolina on Friday at Watson Stadium. Jamie Serber of the Panthers allowed just three runs in his first six innings but the Chanticleers put up a six-run seventh inning which proved to be the difference in the game. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We played a tremendous game except for one inning on the mound,â&#x20AC;? said head coach Craig Cozart. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is tough to play as hard as we did and not get the results. We played with tremendous energy and I expect two more quality games.â&#x20AC;? HPU falls to 17-14 (4-6 Big South). Kyle Starnes took the loss to go to 1-1. With the win, Coastal Carolina is 25-5 (6-0 BSC) and Matt Laney improves to 1-1. Coastal Carolina took a quick lead in the first inning. Rico Noel reached on a ground ball up the middle, advancing to second on Scott Woodwardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sacrifice bunt.

Noel swiped his Big South-leading 23rd stolen base as Serber hit Jose Iglesias with a pitch. Serber jammed Tommy La Stella who popped the pitch up to shortstop. Noel came in to score on Adam Riceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s single to left field before Serber got out of the inning. Kyle Mahoney tied the game at 1-1 in the top of the second inning, launching a 1-1 pitch from Cody Wheeler over the wall for his fourth home run of the season. After CCU took a 2-1 in the bottom of the third the Panthers answered with a three-run fourth inning to take a 4-2 lead. Murray White IV led off the inning. With two outs Matt Gantner singled through the left side to bring Max Fulginiti to the plate. Fulginiti drilled the seventh pitch of the at-bat off the left field wall to score both White and Gantner. Steve Antolik singled to score Fulginiti. Serber again had struggles in the fifth inning, giving up two hits to lead off the inning, with Rice picking up his third RBI of the game. The Panthers added another run in the sixth inning off Wheeler as Roberts came around to score after leading off the inning with a double. Gantner picked up his

18th double of the season, to score Roberts. Coastalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s threats finally equaled runs against Serber in the seventh inning. They took a 6-5 lead on Bowmanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s single to left field, still without an out in the inning. Coastal would bat around in the inning, extending the lead to 9-5. Serber lasted six innings, allowing five runs on eight hits with two strikeouts and three walks. HPU got two runs back in the eighth inning, Gantner singled and scored and Fulginiti doubled and scored. Drew Dades made his first appearance of the season, coming out of the bullpen in the eighth inning. He surrendered a home run to La Stella to lead off the inning. White led off the ninth inning with a single and came around to score when Roberts doubled over Noelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s head in center field. Fulginiti picked up an RBI with a sacrifice fly to left field. Rein got Antolik to fly out to right field to end the game. The teams will play again at 2 p.m. on Saturday with Al Yevoli taking the mound for HPU against Anthony Meo of Coastal Carolina.

SOFTBALL LEDFORD 9, E.

Fridayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nonconference game between top rivals headed to extra innings after Deanna Craytonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s RBI single in the sixth tied it for Ledford. Everhartâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s huge play in the seventh came on a grounder to short. Following her blast over the fence in rightcenter, an error and key hits for the Panthers â&#x20AC;&#x201C; an RBI double by Ashley Best and two-run single from Jennifer Stilley â&#x20AC;&#x201C; led to a six-run outburst.

Butler, Blue Devils consider rematch INDIANAPOLIS (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; College basketball fans may get another chance to watch Duke and Butler. One day after signing a new 12-year contract with the Bulldogs, coach Brad Stevens mapped out his longterm vision for Butler basketball that includes bringing in more talent, upgrading the schedule and, yes, perhaps getting a regular-season rematch

with the Blue Devils next season. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have been approached about that but it all depends on the times and the dates,â&#x20AC;? Stevens said Friday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think very few people want to play Duke, but if you have to play Duke in the national championship, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll take it. Our hope is that this translates into more opportunities on neutral courts and getting home-andhomes, like Gonzaga.â&#x20AC;?

Allmendinger speeds to first Cup pole AP

Fred Couples (right of camera) waits to hit at the seventh hole during the second round of the Masters on Friday. Couples, who led after the first round, carded a 75 and dropped three shots out of the lead.

Couples unable to duplicate magic AUGUSTA, Ga. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Life at the top of the leaderboard was sweet and short for Fred Couples at the Masters. He three-putted 16. He threeputted 17. A misclub on 18 made it three bogeys in a row Friday, and Couples found himself sliding out of contention. A 75 left him at 3 under, five strokes leaders Ian Poulter and Lee Westwood. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I needed to be at five, six under, to be realistic,â&#x20AC;? Couples said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not out of it, but 75 is not a great score.â&#x20AC;? The 50-year-old is playing some of his best golf in years, and his 66 on Thursday made him the oldest player to hold the outright lead

after the opening round of this tournament. He plays Augusta National as well as anyone â&#x20AC;&#x201D; he and Gary Player hold the record with 23 consecutive cuts made â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and if thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one graying guy in the field whom fans would enjoy seeing in another green jacket, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s him. But Couplesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; creaky back acted up again Thursday night. By the next morning, he was hoping he wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t drop to last. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be able to play very good at all today,â&#x20AC;? he said. The back loosened up, however. He chipped to within 3 feet for a birdie on the par-5 No. 2, moving to 7 under.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t feel good, but I got it around,â&#x20AC;? Couples said. He couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get the ball to go in the cup fast enough. Birdie putts on 11, 12 and 13 wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t drop. He had the threeputt on 16. On 17, he actually had a birdie opportunity but knocked the putt 5 feet past the hole and couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make the comeback. Putting wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the problem on 18. He misclubbed his approach shot and wound up flying the green. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not a whole lot of fun at the moment,â&#x20AC;? Couples said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I would have taken a 75 at 9:45 this morning. But I had the capability of shooting much better, and I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t.â&#x20AC;?

Kucharâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ball finds wrong kind of cup THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

AUGUSTA, Ga. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A bad hop put Matt Kucharâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ball in the drink at the Masters. A fanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s drink. Kucharâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s approach shot on No. 9 Friday bounced on the green and splashed into Jason Thompsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s plastic cup. The Summerville, S.C., resident was sitting along the right side of the hole at Augusta National. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was fairly entertaining,â&#x20AC;? Kuchar said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve seen it done before, but Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve never personally done it.â&#x20AC;? Kuchar and Thompson exchanged a laugh when Kuchar saw where his ball had landed. As allowed by

the rules, Kuchar marked where the ball landed. Thompson then fished it out of the cup â&#x20AC;&#x201D; â&#x20AC;&#x153;I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to dig my hands into his (drink)â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and Kuchar dried it off before taking a drop. He went on to make par.

YOUNGEST TO MAKE CUT Italyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Matteo Manassero was the youngest person to play at the Masters. Now heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the youngest to make the cut. The 16-year-old shot a 76 Friday that put him right on the cutline â&#x20AC;&#x201D; 3 over for the tournament. He is also the first amateur since 1999 to make the cut, and the lone teenager of the

four in the field playing the weekend. Previously, the youngest player to make the cut was South African Bobby Cole, who was about a month shy of his 19th birthday when he made it in 1967. Angel Cabrera made a 12-footer on 18 to avoid becoming the first defending Masters champion since Mike Weir in 2004 to miss the cut. Chad Campbell, who finished third in the playoff with Cabrera and Kenny Perry last year, also is sticking around after an impressive rebound. He came back with a 4-under 68 Friday after opening with a 79.

FAA HALTS PLANE An airplane that towed banners taunting Tiger Woods about his sex scandal during the Masters has been ordered to stop until it undergoes minor repairs. Kathleen Bergen, an Atlanta-based spokeswoman for the Federal Aviation Administration, said Friday that FAA flight safety inspectors issued the order after meeting with the planeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pilot. The single-engine Cessna made two flights near Augusta National as Woods played Thursday in the first round of the Masters, close enough that the banners could be read from the course.

AVONDALE, Ariz. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; AJ Allmendinger finally has his first NASCAR Sprint Cup Series pole. Making it even sweeter, he beat his old team to get the top spot at Phoenix International Raceway. With a lap of 134.675 mph Friday in the Richard Petty-owned No. 43 Ford, Allemendinger took the pole away from Scott Speed, the driver who essentially replaced him at Red Bull Racing. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even realize there was a Red Bull car on pole,â&#x20AC;? Allmendinger said, before quickly telling the truth. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really a surprise to see them up there, but anybodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been let go, you know what itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like to go out and beat your old team.â&#x20AC;? Allmendinger ran 38 races over two seasons for the Red Bull team before being let go late in 2008. After leading 11 laps in the season-opening Daytona 500 this year, Allmendinger finished 32nd and has only one top 10 through the first six races. He is a disappointing 26th in the points standings. â&#x20AC;&#x153;To get our first pole is exciting. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a small victory, but it means so

much to this team, especially to me,â&#x20AC;? said Allmendinger, who is starting Allmendinger his 87th Cup race. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a big deal for the season. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been difficult, but I know weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re getting better each weekend.â&#x20AC;? Speed ran a lap of 134.373 mph in his Toyota, and Sam Hornish qualified third in the No. 77 Dodge. Marcus Ambrose was fourth and Dale Earnhardt Jr. had the highest-qualifying Chevrolet in the fifth spot. Sprint Cup points leader Jimmie Johnson, who has won four of the last five races at Phoenix, qualified 16th. Denny Hamlin will start 26th in his first race since surgery March 31 to repair a torn ACL in his left knee. He will start the race, but Casey Mears is standing by to take over if needed during the 375-lap race on the oddly shaped mile track. Speed, coming off consecutive finishes of 31st and 33rd, arrived in the desert with a cleanshaven head and a car he has nicknamed â&#x20AC;&#x153;Rattlesnake.â&#x20AC;?

QBs under microscope in UNC spring game CHAPEL HILL (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Fans were so frustrated with North Carolinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s offense last season, they threw a coin at quarterback T.J. Yates â&#x20AC;&#x201D; in his home staduim. But Yates got a real taste of fan frustration when a youngster mailed him an angry letter. The author â&#x20AC;&#x201D; whom Yates guessed was maybe a third-grader â&#x20AC;&#x201D; wrote stars in place of profanities. Yates knows all that consternation probably hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t vanished just yet. Not with talented redshirt freshman Bryn

Renner competing for the starting job heading into todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nationally televised spring game. It will be the first chance for fans to compare a threeyear starter in Yates with the untested â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and everpopular â&#x20AC;&#x201D; backup QB. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have (the playersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and coachesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;) trust, but I want to gain as much trust as possible,â&#x20AC;? Yates said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Obviously with the fans, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to gain their trust back as well. But first things first, my coaches and my teammates are the guys that really matter to me.â&#x20AC;?

Wholesale inventories, sales post gains WASHINGTON (AP) – Inventories held by wholesalers rose by a larger-than-expected amount in February while sales increased for the 11th consecutive month. The Commerce Department said Friday that inventories at the wholesale level were up 0.6 percent in February, better than the 0.4 percent increase analysts had expected. Sales rose 0.8 percent, surpassing the 0.5 percent rise economists had forecast. The gains were an encouraging sign that stron-

Constellation ends merger talks VICTOR, N.Y. – Constellation Brands has broken off talks to combine part of its Australian and British wine operations with Australian Vintage. The world’s biggest winemaker by volume says the decision to end negotiations with its smaller rival was a mutual one. Based in upstate New York, Constellation Brands says it will continue to focus on paring costs and finding ways to make its British and Australian businesses more efficient.

Interest rates little changed in bond market NEW YORK – Interest rates were little changed in the bond market Friday, capping off a week of big fluctuations as the government sold $82 billion in new debt. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note fell to 3.88 percent in late trading, from 3.89 percent late Thursday. The yield is often used as a benchmark for consumer loans. The price of the 10-year note maturing in February 2020 rose 3/32 to 97 28/32. The 10-year note yield has remained in a tight range throughout the day as investors avoid making big bets.

ger demand is prompting businesses to restock depleted shelves, a development that will help sustain the economic recovery. The inventory increase followed a 0.1 percent rise in January, which was initially reported as a decline of 0.2 percent. The rise in sales followed a 0.9 percent January advance and marked the 11th straight month that sales have been up. Analysts are hoping that the string of sales increases will prompt businesses to be-

gin restocking their depleted shelves on a sustained basis, giving a boost to the economy as it struggles to recover. The back-to-back gains in inventories were the first since increases in both October and November. However, inventories drop again in December. Before October, inventories had posted 13 straight declines as businesses went through a massive liquidation of their stocks during the recession, struggling to contain costs as demand for their products slumped.

Greece bailout terms under discussion ATHENS, Greece (AP) – Greece faces the very real prospect that it will need a bailout designed to prevent the country from defaulting – but markets have been on edge as officials work out details on how a rescue would be carried out. Greece’s finance minister said Friday key aspects of a previously agreed rescue plan by eurozone countries and the International Monetary Fund were being hammered out, even as he insisted no bailout was needed. The vaguely worded rescue plan agreed on in Brussels on March 25 would provide Greece with loans from other eurozone governments and the International Monetary Fund. EU sources said Friday

night that a decision had been made on how the interest rates for the loans would be calculated. One source said they would be similar to IMF loans, which tend to be lower than market rates. It would likely be a threeyear or short-term loan rather than a 10-year loan, and a final decision would be made by the eurozone finance ministers who are to meet in Madrid next Friday. The sources spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the talks. A rescue would be an admission by the European Union that the rules set up to safeguard its 11-year-old euro currency haven’t been strong enough to weather a crisis.

Flight attendants against United-US Airways merger MINNEAPOLIS (AP) – Some of the biggest unions at United Airlines and US Airways are signaling opposition to the idea of combining the two carriers. The union that represents flight attendants at both airlines called the idea of combining them “absurd.” The United and US Airways units of the Association of Flight Attendants-CWA said the carriers should focus on current issues, including new contracts. The union said its opposition was because of unresolved labor issues at both carriers, which are both negotiating contracts with their flight attendants. “Our current management needs to address the problems they have created

at each airline before contemplating any other joint venture,” the union said. United pilots have said they don’t oppose a merger that helps the careers of United pilots, but said a deal with US Airways doesn’t appear to meet that standard. The situation with US Airways pilots has been cited as one of the key roadblocks to a deal. That airline is a product of America West’s purchase of US Airways in 2005, and the pilots still function as separate groups, although they’re represented by one union. The former America West pilots have sued the union, the US Airline Pilots Association, over issues related to merging the two groups.

Dow nears 11,000 NEW YORK (AP) – The stock market closed at a new 18-month high Friday, with the Dow Jones industrial average briefly touching 11,000 before retreating slightly. The gains were driven by fresh signs that the economy continues to recover. Many analysts remain skeptical that the market’s gains are sustainable since they have come on relatively low volume, indicating that a large number of investors are still sitting on the sidelines. The Dow very briefly touched 11,000 in the final five minutes of trading before ending with a gain of 70 points. It hadn’t crossed that level since Sept. 29, 2008, just as the worst phase of the financial crisis was beginning. Rising commodity prices also helped energy and material stocks, pushing indexes higher. Commodities mostly climbed on hopes demand will jump as the economy continues to improve. Chevron Corp. and ExxonMobil Corp. both rose. While the Dow’s approach to 11,000 has been a big focus for many individual investors, a number of Wall Street analysts downplay its importance for professional money managers. The Dow has crossed the 11,000 level 34 times since first hitting it in May 1999. The Dow’s rise Friday gives the index its sixth straight weekly gain for the first time since a stretch in March and April last year, just after market bottomed out at 12-year lows.

Oil prices settle below $85 a barrel

Robert Levin, (left) former executive vice president and chief business officer at Fannie Mae, and Daniel Mudd, former president and chief executive officer at Fannie Mae, are sworn-in before giving testimony in Washington Friday.

NEW YORK (AP) – Oil prices fell Friday for a third day, dropping below $85 a barrel as traders questioned whether Americans were burning enough fuel to justify higher prices. The slump in crude wiped out gains from earlier in the week, when prices jumped to an 18month high above $87 a barrel. If oil continues to tumble, it could pull gasoline prices lower. But experts still predict gasoline will get more expensive this summer as vacationers hit the road and the driving season begins in earnest. The Energy Information Administration said

this week the national average should top $3 a gallon this summer. On Friday, Benchmark crude for May delivery lost 47 cents to settle at $84.92 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. In London, Brent crude added 2 cents to settle at $84.83 on the ICE futures exchange. Oil prices tumbled even though stock markets rallied and the dollar fell compared to other major currencies. A weaker dollar usually props up oil prices since investors holding foreign currencies find they can buy more crude for the same price.

Ex-Fannie Mae execs defend track record Regulators close

WASHINGTON (AP) – Two former Fannie Mae executives said Friday that competitive pressures, combined with the political goal of increasing homeownership, were to blame for the company’s decision to back riskier mortgages that fueled the housing bubble. Daniel Mudd, Fannie Mae’s former chief executive, and Robert Levin, the company’s former chief business officer, testified before a panel examining the roots of the financial crisis. Both executives left Fannie Mae after it was seized by regulators in fall 2008. Mudd stopped short of a full apology for the company’s collapse and the more than $75 billion it has cost taxpayers so far. But, he said, “I accept responsibility for everything that happened on my watch.” Just before the housing bust, Fannie Mae executives worried the mortgage finance company was becoming irrelevant. Wall Street firms

had muscled into the mortgagebacked securities business and were stealing its market share, according to a July 2005 internal presentation disclosed by the panel. While executives were aware of “growing concern about housing bubbles,” the presentation said, they also feared the company could come a “niche player” amid competition from Wall Street. “Could we really sit out?” Levin told the panel. “Would we be permitted to sit out? That’s what we were grappling with.” Short-term concerns ultimately prevailed, and Fannie dived increasingly into riskier loans, like those that didn’t require proof of income. Then, as the market turned down, Mudd noted “virtually every other housing sector investor fled the market.” Fannie and sibling company Freddie Mac “were specifically required to take up the slack.” The inquiry is being held by the

congressionally chartered Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission. Congress created the commission last year to examine the causes of the crisis. Its report is due Dec. 15. Members of the panel blasted the executives for failing to plan for a drop in home prices, and Mudd conceded that the company was consistently surprised as prices fell. Fannie and Freddie buy mortgages from lenders and package them into bonds that are resold to global investors. As the housing bubble burst, they were unable to raise enough money to stay afloat, and the government effectively nationalized them in September 2008. That has cost taxpayers about $126 billion so far. The role of Fannie and Freddie in the mortgage crisis is hotly debated in Washington. Republicans say the two companies, with the government’s encouragement, deserve most of the blame for inflating the housing bubble.

SC bank THE ASSOCIATE PRESS

Regulators on Friday shut down a bank in South Carolina, marking 42 bank failures in the U.S. so far this year amid mounting loan defaults, especially in commercial real estate. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. took over Beach First National Bank, based in Myrtle Beach, S.C., with $585.1 million in assets and $516 million in deposits. Bank of North Carolina, based in Thomasville, N.C., agreed to assume the assets and deposits of the failed bank.

In addition, the FDIC and Bank of North Carolina agreed to share losses on $497.9 million of Beach First National Bank’s loans and other assets. The failure of Beach First is expected to cost the deposit insurance fund $130.3 million. There were 140 bank failures in the U.S. last year, the highest annual tally since 1992 at the height of the savings and loan crisis. They cost the insurance fund more than $30 billion. Twenty-five banks failed in 2008 and only three succumbed in 2007.

Battle looms for court nominee Supreme Court Justice Stevens stepping down WASHINGTON (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The retirement of Justice John Paul Stevens, the Supreme Courtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s leading liberal, touched off an immediate election-year political battle Friday over President Barack Obamaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s second high court pick. Republicans promised trouble for any activist nominee. O b a m a said he would quickly name Stevens a successor in the mold of Stevens, who he said was a voice for ordinary people rather than powerful interests. Eleven days before his 90th birthday, Stevens said he would step down when the court finishes its work for the summer

Rehnquist at the Supreme Court in Washington. in hopes that a replacement could be confirmed well before the next term begins in October. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We cannot replace Justice Stevensâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; experience or wisdom,â&#x20AC;? Obama said at the White House after returning from Prague where he had signed a nuclear treaty.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll seek someone in the coming weeks with similar qualities: an independent mind, a record of excellence and integrity, a fierce dedication to the rule of law and a keen understanding of how the law affects the daily lives of the American people. It will also be someone

who, like Justice Stevens, knows that in democracy powerful interests must not be allowed to drown out the voices of ordinary citizens.â&#x20AC;? A White House official said about 10 people are under consideration, but speculation has focused on fewer than that.

Stupak, linchpin of health care bill, calls it quits MARQUETTE, Mich. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Rep. Bart Stupak insists that tea party activists outraged over his crucial support of health care legislation didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t run him out of office, but his decision to retire gives conservatives a rallying point as they target Democrats in the midterm elections. The congressman, an anti-abortion Democrat whose high-profile role in the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Obamacareâ&#x20AC;? debate earned him enemies on the left and the right, said Friday that heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s leaving because heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tired and has accomplished his No. 1 goal: improving health care. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The tea party did not run me out,â&#x20AC;? Stupak told The Associated Press in a phone interview. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you know me and my

personality, I would welcome the challenge.â&#x20AC;? Stupak had been a consistent Stupak landslide winner in his sprawling northern Michigan district, and the opening now offers Republicans a ripe opportunity to regain a seat they held for decades until Stupak prevailed in 1992. His political foes â&#x20AC;&#x201C; tea party activists and abortion opponents â&#x20AC;&#x201C; both claimed credit for forcing him into retirement, and Michigan GOP Chairman Ron Weiser declared that the nineterm incumbent had become the first casualty of the battle over health care in Congress.

Smith estate appeals ruling on oil fortune

Sarah Palin signs autographs after speaking at the Southern Republican Leadership Conference in New Orleans on Friday.

Palin, president engage in war of words NEW ORLEANS (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; President Barack Obama and Republican Sarah Palin sparred from a distance over nuclear policy with each questioning the otherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s experience on the issue in a potential preview of the 2012 White House race. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Unbelievable,â&#x20AC;? Palin said earlier this week after Obama rewrote the U.S. nuclear strategy, and she suggested the president was weak on nuclear defense. Obama, in Prague to sign a nuclear reduction treaty with Russia, countered by deriding the former Alaska governor who resigned midway through her first term as â&#x20AC;&#x153;not much of an expertâ&#x20AC;? on nuclear issues. Palin then shot back Friday during a speech to the Southern Republican Leadership Conference in

New Orleans with a reference to Obamaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s early career choice. Mocking the president, she dismissed â&#x20AC;&#x153;all the vast nuclear experience that he acquired as a community organizer.â&#x20AC;? Playing out over several days and across the globe, the spat foreshadowed what the country could see come the next presidential race should Palin run for president and win the GOP nomination. The 2008 vice presidential nominee is among roughly a dozen Republicans weighing candidacies. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a wide-open field but Republican insiders say Palin would be a serious contender if she got in the race. She is beloved by tea party activists. Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a political celebrity who draws tons of media cover-

Astronauts take first spacewalk of shuttle mission CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; A pair of spacewalking astronauts disconnected an old empty ammonia tank outside the International Space Station on Friday and got a new one ready to put in its place. In the first of three spacewalks needed to complete the job, Clayton Anderson had no problem taking apart the ammonia lines on the old tank. But he needed a pry bar to remove the new tank out of space shuttle Discoveryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s payload bay. The tank got hung up on a bolt.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Go nice and easy, Clay,â&#x20AC;? spacewalking partner Rick Mastracchio warned as Anderson pushed and prodded with the pry bar. After several tries, the tank finally came free. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We got it!â&#x20AC;? Anderson called out. The two men lifted the 1,700-pound tank out of Discovery and handed it off to a robot arm, which maneuvered it to a temporary storage location at the space station. The actual swap-out of the two tanks will take place during the second spacewalk Sunday.

age. And she has an ability to raise big money. But sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also polarizing, and thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no evidence that she can broaden her base of support beyond conservatives to win the GOP nomination, much less to beat a popular Democratic president. Meanwhile, embattled GOP Chairman Michael Steele got a much-needed boost Friday from a majority of state party chiefs ahead of his speech to activists today, his first public appearance since a spending scandal hit the Republican National Committee. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We stand behind Chairman Steele as he continues to lead us on the path victory in November,â&#x20AC;? said a letter of support signed by 31 of Steeleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s state counterparts.

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Lawyers for the estate of Anna Nicole Smith have appealed a ruling that gave her none of her late billionaire husbandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fortune. The appeal filed Thursday seeks a full review by the San Francisco-based 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals and continues a case that has outlived both parties. Smithâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s husband gave most of his estate to his son, E. Pierce Marshall.

Ex-producer free, but remains suspect in wifeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s death CANCUN, Mexico (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The producer of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Pimp My Rideâ&#x20AC;? and formerly of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Survivorâ&#x20AC;? is barred from leaving Mexico while authorities investigate the death of his wife, Monica, whose body was found in the sewer of a Cancun resort, a state official said. Bruce Beresford-Redman was released from custody early Friday because investigators donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have enough evidence to hold him, said Francisco Alor, the attorney general in Quintana Roo state. The 38-year-old producer was handed to U.S.

But Alor said BeresfordBeresford- R e d m a n Redman remains a suspect. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t leave the country,â&#x20AC;? the state attorney general said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We still canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t say that he is responsible, but thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the starting point of the investigation because we have witnesses who say he was the last to see her alive.â&#x20AC;?

Suzuki’s SUV takes different path ANN M. JOB THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

The 2010 Suzuki Grand Vitara looks like a mainstream, compact sport utility vehicle designed for paved roads. But it’s a capable off-roader, too. Adding to the appeal, the Grand Vitara – 14.7 feet long with a trucklike ladder frame, as well as four-wheel drive with locking center differential in uplevel models – comes with a 100,000-mile/sevenyear limited warranty on its powertrain. The warranty is fully transferrable to succeeding vehicle owners. Best of all, a new Grand Vitara has a starting retail price of $19,894 with 166-horsepower, four-cylinder engine, manual transmission and twowheel drive. The lowest-priced Grand Vitara with automatic starts at $21,544, while the lowest starting retail price for a fourwheel drive Grand Vitara is $22,994. Only an automatic transmission is offered with four-wheel drive. The Grand Vitara with uplevel V-6 engine is much pricier, with a starting retail price of $26,344. To compare, Hyundai’s

The new Grand Vitara has a retail price of $19,894 with 166-horsepower, four-cylinder engine and manual transmission. Tucson SUV has a starting retail price just below the Grand Vitara – $19,790 with four-cylinder engine, manual transmission and two-wheel drive. Honda’s 2010 CR-V has a starting MSRP, including destination charge, of $22,255 with four-cylinder engine, automatic transmission and two-wheel drive. The Japan-built Grand Vitara is a bit of a throw-

back to earlier days when SUVs were designed for rugged, off-road use. Most competitors moved away from this positioning over the years as they refined the ride and comfort of their vehicles and transformed them into tall-riding, family-friendly station wagons. Suzuki, though, retained some of the basic off-road-capable archi-

tecture of the Grand Vitara. Officials combined a rugged ladder frame with unibody construction, maintained generous ground clearance and styled the vehicle with short overhangs so bumpers and body panels don’t get damaged in tight wilderness terrain. Suzuki improved the Grand Vitara’s ride and suspension, too, and

reworked the interior with more comfortable and supportive seats. It also added amenities, including a segment-first standard navigation system that’s even in the base, bargain-priced 2010 Grand Vitara. It’s a small, removable Garmin unit attached to a flip-up cover atop the dashboard. A driver can remove the nav system and take it

This compares with typical navigation systems sold by carmakers today that are built into the dashboard, where they include a larger, integrated display screen.

A first time for everything F

irst-time buyers … excited to find a good deal, afraid of overextending themselves, confused by all the conflicting reports about real estate. Well, that might describe any or all buyers right now, but those making their very first purchase may feel slightly elevated levels of all these emotions. It helps to have someone offer you some guidance. Don’t be afraid to make your move now, regardless of what you’ve been hearing about the market. With affordability so

high, you’ll find a flurry of activity out there, so you’re not alone in making the right decision to begin your home search. Just try not to REAL ESTATE exercise excessive Ken caution, or you Wall may suffer what ■■■ has been termed “paralysis by analysis.” Your dedicated Realtor will present you with all the facts and

figures you need, and help you to interpret the data so that you can make a sound choice. Now is not the time to vacillate about whether prices or interest rates will still drop. There is nowhere to go now but up. If rates rise to 7.5% (still historically low), the home’s price would have to be reduced nearly 20% to offset the difference in monthly payments. Set aside your uncertainties. Chat with a Realtor who can help you determine your finan-

cial footing and show you an inventory of well-suited homes matched to your particular goals. Ken Wall is president of the High Point Regional Association of Realtors, one of more than 1,800 local boards and associations nationwide that comprise the National Association of Realtors (NAR). The Association is an advocate for property rights and the “Voice of Real Estate” in the Triad area of North Carolina. HPRAR represents more than 700 members in all aspects of the residential and commercial real estate industry.

Homebuyers: How to up odds for mortgage approval A

re you anxious to buy a home before the bargain deals vaporize, yet fearful that mortgage approval could be a problem? If so, home loan specialists say your worry may be warranted, especially if you have a blemished credit history. “Since 2009, mortgage approval has gotten a lot trickier. Obviously, lenders have had a terrible time with lots of the loans on their books. So they’re much more cautious now,” says Dale Robyn Siegel, author of “The New Rules for Mortgages.” Siegel, a mortgage broker who heads her own firm, says that in recent months, “lenders have raised the bar on borrowers in multiple ways.” They’re demanding higher credit scores and larger down payments. Also, many lenders now insist that borrowers prove they have enough in liquid assets to cover at least two months’ worth of mortgage payments. All this is not to say lenders don’t want business from homebuyers with a steady income and strong credit. “But if you’re a weak borrower, you’ll have more trouble,” says Keith Gumbinger, a vice president at HSH Associates (www.hsh.com), which tracks mortgage rates throughout the country.

If you’re planning to buy a home soon and want a positive outcome at the lender’s office, then these pointers could prove helpful: • Assemble a short list of lenders who come recSMART MOVES ommended. You could always turn Ellen to the Internet or the YelMartin low Pages for lenders, but ■■■ Gumbinger says you’re better off compiling a short list through referrals from people you know, including your real estate agent. Real estate agents are a good source because they rely on lenders to get their deals through and need to know who can be counted on for good service and rates. Also, lenders referred by your agent are more likely to be responsive should problems arise because they want the agent to send them more business. • Round up your financial documents before going to a lender’s office. Before the economic downturn, many lenders demanded few documents to approve you for a loan. Indeed, some borrowers got away with “low doc” or “no

doc” loans. But now that lending standards are more stringent, it’s up to borrowers to prove they could handle their mortgage payments, Gumbinger says. To increase your chances of approval, pull together all your key documents before going to see a lender, including W-2s and tax returns going back two to three years, and current bank and brokerage statements. • Look into your credit before your lender does. Siegel recommends you review your credit standing early in the approval process. That way you’ll have a crack at correcting any errors on your credit reports before your lender spots them. The three key credit bureaus are: Equifax (www.equifax.com or 800-6851111); Experian (www.experian.com or 888-397-3742); and TransUnion (www. transunion.com or 800-888-4213). Under federal law, you’re entitled to a free copy of all three credit reports once a year. To request these, go to www.annualcreditreport.com or call 877-322-8228. It’s also wise to get a copy of your credit scores, which draw on data from the bureaus, provide a quantitative measure of a person’s credit risk. Most lenders use FICO scores, pioneered by the Fair Isaac Corp. For a fee, you

can obtain your FICO scores at www. myfico.com. Siegel urges you to resist appeals from multiple lenders seeking to access your credit information. Only let a lender pull your credit if you’re sure you’ve found the right place to apply. That’s because multiple lenders’ queries could cost you points on your credit score, she says. • Be strategic in your use of credit cards. How you handle credit cards can have a big impact on your credit score. But Siegel says consumers are often unclear on what to do, adding that some people with multiple credit cards think they should use their spare funds to pay off one account at a time, closing it when they do. Rather, she recommends you spread your funds across several balances, paying each card to a 50 percent or lower balance. • Recognize the realities of current mortgage pricing. The notorious sub-prime mortgage market that targeted homebuyers with blemished credit has nearly dried up. But lenders still distinguish among borrowers, charging less to those with high credit scores and larger down payments.
