City Council panel revisits proposal BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
TRINITY – A panel of Trinity City Council members is revisiting a proposal that could mandate all residents have trash and recycling service. The city’s trash and recycling task force, composed of Councilmen Kelly Grooms, Robbie Sikes and Tommy Johnson, has directed City Manager Ann Bailie to research how much it would cost
Last year, the City Council nixed a proposal to implement the amenity. to implement a citywide trash and recycling service. The task force also told Bailie to see if the city’s trash haulers would agree to form a corporation to provide the city with the service, a concept the haulers agreed upon last year. Last year, the City Council nixed a proposal to implement a service after many residents told the governing body they couldn’t afford to pay for it. Because plastic was banned from landfills late last year, calls into City Hall requesting recycling service have increased dramatically, causing the city to explore the mandatory service again, Bailie said. “We’ve got to see what the figures are going to be,” Sikes said. “I definitely want to go in a positive direction. I definitely think we need it. It’s just another benefit of being a city. We want to go forward with what we are doing, and we want to do it for the best of the city and each taxpayer.” Grooms, who voted in

Jobless rates fall across Triad, state BY PAUL B. JOHNSON ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
TRIAD – Talk about a welcome and dramatic change on the job front. After more than a year of escalating unemployment across the region and state, jobless rates fell from February to March in all 100 counties, the N.C. Employment Security Commission reported Friday. The number of unemployed workers in the state decreased by 38,401 to 496,734 in March, while the number of people listed in a job increased by 66,804 to 4.06 million. The last time no counties recorded an increase in joblessness was April 2006, when 99 counties had a drop in unemployment and one remained unchanged, according to ESC figures. The improvement in the state job market reflects national
numbers released earlier this month by the U.S. Labor Department that showed net job gains during March. Davidson County recorded a drop in unemployment from 14.2 percent in February to 13.1 percent in March. Guilford County’s rate declined from 11.8 percent to 11 percent, while Randolph County’s rate fell from 12.8 percent to 11.8 percent, according to ESC figures. The city of High Point’s jobless rate fell from 11.8 percent in February to 11.1 percent last month. “The number of job orders are up from this time last year. We’ve had jobs orders coming in steadily all this week,” said Charles Diggs, assistant manager of the High Point ESC office. Despite the improvement, jobless levels re-
GUILFORD COUNTY – The way the numbers added up this week, state budget adjustments proposed by Gov. Beverly Perdue could cost the school district an additional $10 million. The cuts start with rollbacks in allotments and also include possible salary adjustments. Early estimates show that Guilford County’s allotment cuts, ranging from the hours paid to assistant principals and per-pupil allotments, could total $8.3 million, Sharon Ozment, district chief financial officer, told the Guilford County Board of Education. “We would have to cover all of that,” Ozment said Thursday.
Much of the $957 million in Perdue’s proposed spending cuts would be used for expanding other programs in the public schools and in higher education, help pay small businesses create jobs and pay for salaries and benefits. The current state budget eliminates $9 million in district funding for 2010-2011 to reach an estimated $29 million state cut in Superintendent Mo Green’s $651.8 million proposed budget. “So we are looking at $20 million now over the last year,” said Chairman Alan Duncan. Possible salary adjustments for employees paid with local dollars could cost $1.9 million to match state adjustments. Perdue has proposed restoring a
teacher longevity-based salary increase of about 1.8 percent. Teachers would get a one-time bonus to make up for a furlough last year that cost them 0.5 percent of their salaries. Perdue’s proposed adjustments could mean that the board may have to consider deeper cuts on Green’s second or “B” list in some areas, Ozment said. Those include a two-day furlough or pay reduction, cutting more administrative positions, and withholding half of the funds that principals use to purchase supplies and hire teachers. The board also discussed the possibility of cutting the $15 million local annual supplement to save money rather than using furloughs

main at historically high levels. The last month when the city of High Point jobless rate bottomed out below 10 percent was January 2009, when the rate was 9.9 percent. Despite the improvement last month, 75 counties posted double-digit jobless rates and 43 counties recorded unemployment rates of at least 12 percent, reports the economic research firm South by North Strategies Ltd. The economy has a long
way to go to recover the 280,200 jobs, or 6.7 percent of the state payroll employment base, lost since the onset of the recession in December 2007, reports Chapel Hill-based South by North Strategies. “News that North Carolina counties experienced a decrease in the local unemployment rate is certainly welcome, but we still have challenges ahead of us,” said ESC Chairman Lynn Holmes out of Raleigh. pjohnson@hpe.com | 888-3528

Obama, first lady start vacation with barbecued ribs, hike ASHEVILLE (AP) – First stop for the first couple’s weekend vacation on Friday was a roadside restaurant that President Barack Obama visited during the final month of his White House campaign. First meal on the trip: barbecued ribs. Obama and first lady Michelle Obama landed in the Blue Ridge Mountains and made a quick stop at Twelve Bones Smokehouse on the way to their resort. The White House said the first couple ate ribs, macaroni and cheese, greens, baked beans, corn bread and corn pudding and washed it down with sweet tea. And then a short time later, they set about working off the meal; the Obamas went on a mountain hike. This trip was meant to be vacation, and Obama didn’t even plan to make calls on the fierce debate over financial reform legislation in the Senate, press secretary Robert
Gibbs told reporters at the White House on Friday. “Knock on wood,” Gibbs said. On Obama’s previous visit to the city, in October 2008, the then-senator prepared for a debate and rallied supporters – and lamented he couldn’t play golf. “What a spectacular place,” Obama said during the Oct. 5, 2008, stop in Asheville. “The only thing I don’t like about it is that I had to drive by the golf course, and it looks really nice. And my staff won’t let me play. I’m going to have to come back.” And back, he is. Not just for the golf: The president always keeps his eye on politics. Obama was the first Democratic presidential candidate to win North Carolina since Jimmy Carter in 1976. He defeated Republican Sen. John McCain by just 0.4 percentage points in a state that favored Presi-

The White House says the Obamas have no public plans while in North Carolina, although the president will speak at Sunday’s memorial in Beckley, W.Va., for the victims of the worst U.S. coal mine disaster in 40 years.

dent George W. Bush’s reelection by 12 percentage points four years earlier. The Democratic nominee’s aggressive campaign – and volunteers from bordering South Carolina – helped turn North Carolina in Obama’s favor. As Democrats’ fortunes have sunk, though, Obama’s trip to North Carolina reflects a nod to a middle-class vacation – in contrast to last year’s trips to Martha’s Vineyard, Mass., and his native Hawaii. Asheville, a city of about 73,000 residents, is
Randolph man faces child porn charges ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT
RANDOLPH COUNTY – Randolph County authorities on Friday made an arrest in connection with an investigation involving the illegal trade of child pornography on the Internet. Detectives with the Randolph County Sheriff’s Office executed a search warrant at 4760
Edgar Road, Sophia on March 31 as part of the Piedmont Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force, deputies said. A search of the residence led to the seizure of two desktop computers and marijuana. Detectives have since located digital files containing images of child pornography on one of the seized
computers, which led the arrest of Caleb Rosario Levasque, 19, who was charged with three counts of second-degree sexual exploitation of a child, according to the sheriff’s office. Levasque was booked into the Randolph County Jail Friday under a $100,000 bond. Officials said the Piedmont Internet Crimes
Against Children Task Force is still actively investigating this case. The multi-jurisdictional task force was established with a federal grant in 2008 that funded equipment and training for sheriff’s officials from several Triad counties to conduct investigations into Internet-based crimes involving minors.

‘Mayberry with a beach’ bans thongs KURE BEACH (AP) – A North Carolina town that the mayor called “Mayberry with a beach” has banned swimmers from wearing thongs. Kure Beach Mayor Dean Lambeth says “we’re going to keep this as close to Mayberry with a beach as you can keep it,” referring to the idyl-
lic Southern community portrayed on the 1960s TV series “The Andy Griffith Show.” The Star-News of Wilmington reports that the town council voted Thursday to add a ban against the revealing swimwear to its existing ordinance against nudity.
The move came after the police chief received an e-mail earlier in the week asking if the town’s existing nude bathing ordinance allowed thongs. The ordinance bans nudity or “insufficient clothing,” and the man wanted to know if thongs were allowed for both men and women.

Europe seeks new air traffic control system BRUSSELS (AP) – The European Union speeded up action on a sweeping reform of its air traffic control system Friday after a crisis over volcanic ash turned much of the continent into a no-fly zone for days. “The worst is now over, but there is a huge amount of work to be done to deal with crisis management,� EU Transport
Commissioner Siim Kallas told reporters. Germany invited aviation experts, EU officials and industry representatives to Berlin on Tuesday to discuss setting standards for air travel, and Spain – which holds the EU’s rotating presidency – said EU transport ministers would meet May 4 in Brussels
for talks on a unified European airspace. European airspace on Friday was almost completely free of volcanic ash from Iceland, according to Eurocontrol, the air traffic agency. All of British airspace was available after four small airports in Scotland reopened. But for the first time since the April 14 eruption, Iceland’s ma-
jor international airport was closed after shifting winds blew the ash cloud toward the capital of Reykjavik, west of the Eyjafjallajokull volcano. Trans-Atlantic flights on Icelandair that usually stop in Iceland were being rerouted through Glasgow in Scotland. Flights across the rest of Europe were proceeding normally,
said Eurocontrol spokeswoman Kyla Evans. About 29,000 flights were scheduled. A week of airspace closures caused by the ash threat to planes created the worst breakdown in civil aviation in Europe since World War II. More than 100,000 flights were canceled and airlines are on track to lose over $2 billion.

George Mitchell held separate talks Friday with Israeli and Palestinian leaders to try to find common ground. However, the gaps remain so wide that the U.S. has struggled to launch even indirect talks, in which Mitchell would shuttle between the two sides.

Authorities said the police officers in the vehicles were distracted by someone selling items on the street when the gunmen opened fire. The assailants then fled in three vehicles.

Pakistan army says militant ambush kills 8 troops ISLAMABAD – Militants ambushed a Pakistani army convoy traveling in a tribal region that is mostly home to insurgent groups focused on the war in neighboring Afghanistan, killing eight soldiers, the military said Friday. The attack could raise pressure on Islamabad to wage an offensive in North Waziristan, which has largely escaped Pakistani army action in recent years despite U.S. pressure for a crackdown. Militant attacks on troops in the region have also been rare.

BAGHDAD (AP) – The bloodiest day of the year in Iraq left at least 69 people dead in a series of bombings in mainly Shiite areas Friday – concerted attacks seen as demonstrating the resilience of the Sunni-led insurgency after the slaying of two al-Qaida leaders last weekend. No one has taken responsibility for the blasts, but officials were quick to blame Sunni-led insurgent groups for attacking at a particularly fragile time as Iraq awaits formation of a new government and prepares for U.S. troops to go home by the end of next year.

Coble’s vote for TARP lost mine for his re-election I was listening to the radio recently, and heard an advertisement for Congressman Howard Coble. In the ad was stated various things Coble believed in and or voted for. I was astounded by one of the items, however. The ad states that Coble voted against stimulus legislation. I found this incredulous, as his vote for the TARP program financial institution bailout (which I consider much the same as stimulus spending) is the very reason that after 20 years of supporting him, I personally have decided to vote for another candidate in the primary, as well as the general election. Coble has proven the old joke true: How do you tell if a politician is lying? Their lips are moving. It is time for the congressman to find another line of work. I thank him for his past service, but I ask him, please go. RUSSELL DILLS Sophia
Stanley would be a leader for Guilford County We have six grandchildren. We are concerned about their future, as well as, the future of our country. They are the reasons we are writing in support of Myrene Stanley for Guilford County Commissioner for District 2 in the May 4 Republican primary. We have known Stanley for more than 20 years. She is a person of integrity – strong and
intelligent. She, like many of our citizens, is upset with the way decisions are made in politics. She is a Christian and a constitutional conservative Republican. She served in the U. S. Army in the Intelligence Division. She recently served as president of the Republican Women of High Point. She attended Tea Party events locally and in Washington, D.C. Stanley is up front in what she believes. She is able to express her thoughts and the reasons for her positions on different issues. When she doesn’t have the facts on an issue, she will hold her opinion until she does. Stanley is a compassionate individual. She has proved this many times through her various involvements in community activities for the less fortunate. She is a no-nonsense person. She can be tough (she has fire in the gut). She is a natural leader. This is the first time Stanley has run for any political office. Thank goodness we have people like her who are willing to stick their neck out. Voters can count on her to represent them in an honest and straight forward way. We, as citizens, need to get behind Myrene Stanley and those like her. It’s time for new blood.

Reid deserves re-election as sheriff of Randolph County I would like to ask the people of Randolph County to vote to reelect Sheriff Maynard Reid for another term. It took a while to see that he was nothing like former Sheriff Litchard Hurley. Reid gets out and does his job. I finally feel safe living in Randolph County now. Reid and his men have taken a lot of criminals off the street, but with all the crooks out there they have a long way to go, but he is doing a great job.
Coble has been a wonderful congressman, but I believe it is time for him to step aside. In the 1990s, Coble was a strong advocate for term limits. Now, he is running for his 14th term. Isn’t a quarter of a century enough? This is a critical time in our nation’s history. We must return to our roots as a conservative nation or we will be permanently on a path to the destruction of our society.

BRIAN BAILEY High Point I want in office Sign, signs, everywhere signs, it’s the political season. The amazing thing to me is the signs that are placed illegally and who’s doing it. I understand that when candidates file they are given the rules and regulations pertaining to signs, but some ignore the rules. They place their signs in the right of way, on empty lots without permission, under highway signs and in medians, all places prohibited by ordinance. Now if these folks will break the law in this small matter, what would they do if they were elected? I asked for a sign to place in my yard. I received the sign and asked for another for a friend. I got that sign too, but was told please don’t place the sign in any prohibited location, that it would reflect poorly on the candidate and to make sure I had permission from the property owner. That candidate was Sheriff BJ Barnes, someone trying to do it right, someone who obeys the rules. Now that’s the kind of sheriff I want. ROLAND L. CONNELLY SR. Greensboro

McCain guaranteed Obama’s election by picking Palin John McCain is a boy senator. He created Miss Sarah, “the empty one,” thus guaranteeing President Obama’s presidency. McCain’s chance for a presidential success died in South Carolina presidential primary. Bush claimed the not-so-great Sen. McCain fathered a child (black). He failed to challenge the governor of Texas, Bush, whose claim as Texas governor was consecutive executions. God has blessed America with a Constitution but we, the Americans, ignored it. Particularly was this true of Bush 2 and Reagan, California governor for eight years and as our president for eight years. BOB BLAKENEY High Point

Life is better in Sudan, but questions remain
‘H
ow are things at home?” I asked recently of a friend from Bor, Sudan. “Oh better! My brothers are all working,” he said. In Sudan, a train that once traveled south-to-north carrying slaves and north-to-south carrying militia to intimidate and kill southerners, now carries workers. The cruel irony is that here in the United States the once labeled “Lost boys” still feel lost. Many are laid off from jobs, work as temps one to two days a week, have lost nearly everything and struggle to keep healthy mentally. Many make no contact with family members in Sudan due to shame – they can no longer provide assistance to them. This month, Sudan held a historical election mandated by the Comprehensive Peace Agreement of 2005. It was the first election in 24 years and the first multiparty election since Sudan’s President Omar al-Bashir’s military coup in 1986. And although many
parties and groups withdrew from the process in the last days of the election and the official poll numbers are expected to be released next OPINION week, it was a step toward democracy. Sondra It will be followed Foy by a referendum in ■■■ January 2011 to determine if Southern Sudan will remain a part of Sudan or become a separate country. The National Elections Commission (NEC) consisted of nine members who were unanimously approved by the National Assembly. Its chairman was a former leader of Southern Sudan’s SPLM. After the elections, the NEC released a statement rejecting the Carter Center’s report alleging the electoral process faced many problems and shortcomings. NEC Deputy Chairman Abdalla Ahmed Abdalla told reporters that the
center’s representative prepared the report on the basis of erroneous information obtained from sources other than NEC. It seems wise to gather information from many sources, especially in a country where genocide, dictatorship, corruption and war have gone on for generations. What The Carter Center actually states (www.CarterCenter. org) is: “Despite many allegations from critics of the ruling parties in the North and South, we had no evidence of deliberate fraud by members of the NEC or others. We obtained an electronic copy of the complete voters’ list and will attempt to determine if the logistical problems had patterns that were designed to shape the outcome of the many elections. We deployed teams in rural and urban areas in all 25 states, except only in the capital cities within Darfur because of a lack of adequate security. Two generic concerns involved voters’ lists and location of polling stations. The

lists were modified by translation back and forth in two languages before final printing and late promulgation, just prior to election day. The number of voting sites was reduced from 21,200 to 16,500, ostensibly for security reasons, which increased voters in many stations to about 1,200. This made it difficult for many voters to find their names or proper voting place. More than in most of our previous 77 elections, observers also reported deviations from rules and regulations and some evidence of intimidation or manipulation, especially among the many illiterate voters.” Sudan is the largest African country on the continent. Although most Sudanese live in poverty, it is mineral rich. A pipeline completed in the 1990s from the South to Port Sudan has allowed for rapid oil exports, mostly to China.

Was America created to be a Christian nation? O
ne of the lead stories on ABC-TV evening news, April 20, raised questions about our early leaders’ plan for America to be a Christian nation. We can debate this issue endlessly. My suggestion is to look at the record. There was no attempt in the separation of church and state question to ever remove religion from its rightful place. That whole debate was to make sure that the state had no authority over the church. There is every indication that our leaders expected Christianity to be the leading religion of this new nation. Harvard University, founded in 1636, was the first college in America. The purpose
of the college was “To train a literate clergy.” The Rules and Precepts observed at Harvard included this statement: “Let every student be plainly instructed, and earnestly pressed to consider well, SHARING the maine (sic) end of his life and studies is, to know THE SPIRIT God and Jesus Christ which is eternal life, John Bill 17:3 and therefore to lay Ellis Christ in the bottome (sic), ■■■ as the only foundation of all sound knowledge and learning.”
I wonder how much better our nation would be if the requirements at the beginning of our oldest college were still practiced today. Admission requirements then were probably too high for today’s students. July 9, 1776, Gen. George Washington issued this order to his troops. “The General hopes and trusts that every officer and man, will endeavor so to live, and act, as becomes a Christian soldier defending the dearest rights and liberties of his country.” John Adams (1735-1826), our second president, was also a man of strong belief in the Christian religion, its Holy Bible and Jesus Christ. He responded to Thomas Paine’s writing: “The Christian religion is,
above all the religions that ever prevailed or existed in ancient or modern times, the religion of Wisdom, Virtue, Equity and Humanity.” Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826), the nation’s third president, was a man of unusual intelligence and faith in God. Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790), one of America’s greatest leaders, wrote to the French ministry, March 1778: “Whoever shall introduce into public affairs the principles of primitive Christianity will change the face of the world.” BILL ELLIS, P.

Selfishness T
Ecclesiastes 3: 1-2
he tenth work of the flesh mentioned by Paul in his epistle to the Galatians is selfishness, a translation of the Greek word “eritheia.” The word “eritheia” refers to a selfcentered attitude, exemplified by someone who seeks political office for personal gain, or who does good works for the purpose of recognition or ambition. This particular vice is contrary to a central theme in the Gospels, namely, Jesus’ warning that “If any man These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow peace. In the world ye shall have me. For whoever would save his life will tribulation: but be of good cheer; lose it, and whoever loses his life for my I have overcome the world. sake will find it.” (Matthew 16:24-25) John 16:33 Who of us can honestly say that we have denied ourselves and are truly willing to lose our lives for someone else? True selflessness is so rare that when we see a genuine case of someone putting other people’s interests ahead of their own, especially when it has significant costs to that individual, we consider it heroic. The question, however, is whether we can truly make these heroic sacrifices in a selfless way, or whether we are doing it with the aim of some otherworldly reward. Many of us make these sacrifices with the secret hope that we will be rewarded in heaven, and this is simply another version of selfishness. Indeed, an emphasis on one’s “personal salvation” is a form of eritheia. We should always consider whether our acts of goodness are done for selfishness or from a more pure motive.
Do nothing from selfishness or conceit, but in humility count others better than yourselves. Let each of you look not only to his own interests but also to the interests of others.

MADISON, Wis. (AP) – The Obama administration said Thursday it will appeal a court decision that found the National Day of Prayer unconstitutional. U.S. District Judge Barbara Crabb in Madison ruled last week the National Day of Prayer that Congress established 58 years ago amounts to a call for religious action. In a notice filed Thursday, the Justice Department said it will challenge the decision in the U.S. 7th Circuit Court of Appeals in Chicago. The notice came after about two dozen members of Congress condemned the ruling and pressed for an appeal.

Sign removal draws criticism
Students bring books to life BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
BY PAUL B. JOHNSON ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
DENTON – With students dressed up in costumes and several tents set up, rain showers Friday didn’t stop Denton Elementary from having its annual Story Spinners event on the school’s front lawn. The event had 68 fourth- and fifth-graders divided into 19 groups tasked with bringing more than a dozen books to life. Story Spinners has been going on at Denton Elementary for probably 18 years, said Paula Peterson, the school’s media coordinator. “We started this off to excite kids about books, to bring a book to life, to make the book a living book,” Peterson said. Out of 33 groups who auditioned for Story Spinners, Peterson said she chose the 19 groups based on how well they understood and presented the book. Peterson said students have to learn how to condense the book but still give the full story, theme and main idea during a five-minute skit. After being chosen for Story Spinners, students were given three weeks to prepare for Friday’s event. “Dumb Bunnies,” “Bad Kitty,” “Falling for Rapunzel,” “Chicks and Salsa,” “Little Red Hen” and “Best Vacation Ever” were some of the books re-enacted Friday. Gail Smith, parent of fourth-grade student Maria Smith, said her daughter and fellow fourth-graders, Hunter
HIGH POINT – Several candidates running in the primary election are questioning how city of High Point workers have decided to remove their campaign signs posted around the city. Paul Norcross, one of four Republican candidates running for the party’s nomination in the 61st House District, said he’s concerned that city work crews removed campaign signs arbitrarily this week. “I witnessed one of my signs being taken down from the back of a friend’s house on Westchester (Drive), which was the exact same distance from the street and utility pole as an opponent’s sign just across the street, also on Westchester, which the city employees had literally just slowly passed by in front of me and did not touch. I’ve gotten a lot of calls from other candidates who are as mad as wet hens right now,” Norcross said. City Manager Strib Boynton said city crews did remove 120 campaign signs this week from the public rights of way for a variety of candidates. Temporary signs for political candidates or other purposes, such as for businesses, are removed from the right of way regularly to enforce codes against their presence on public property. “We do not play favorites, and all are treated equally,” said Boynton, who added that campaigns had been informed about the rules. Norcross said he and other candidates would like an opportunity to speak with the High Point City Council about the issue. Myrene Stanley, a Republican candidate for the District 2 seat on the Guilford County Board of Commissioners, said she’s recently noticed her campaign signs disappearing. “They are about $5 apiece,” she said. Pam Cromer of Greenhill Drive said workers at her home Thursday witnessed city workers removing campaign signs from her yard. Some of the signs were in a flower bed, which she said is not in a right of way. Boynton said city workers don’t intend to remove signs from private property. The city has received complaints from city residents about the clutter of signs along rights of way, he said.

The students acted out scenes from the book “Falling For Rapunzel.” McGee and Hannah Cranford, had a lot of fun rehearsing for “Falling for Rapunzel.” The group of fourth-graders and their parents built a castle out of cardboard supplied by Carolina Container in High Point. “They would meet af-
ter school and rehearse their parts, and they each came up with their own costumes for their play,” Gail Smith said. According to Peterson, parents started setting up for the event Thursday night and arrived as early as 7 a.m. to prepare for Story Spinners.
“I have a tremendous amount of support from parents,” she said. “I actually have some parents who will do the narrating for the children. I let them do that. I figure it’s a nice thing for parents.” dignasiak@hpe.com | 888-3657

Patrol captain at center of drunken driving probe MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE
RALEIGH – A Highway Patrol captain has been placed on desk duty after a Butner Public Safety officer pulled him over while the trooper was “extremely drunk.” No charges were filed against the patrol captain, James Williams Jr., who was given a ride to a nearby hotel. An official probe into the incident, which occurred early on the morning of April 3, was launched after a reporter from The News & Observer called to inquire about it the following week. Ernie Seneca, spokesman for the N.C. Department of Crime Control and Public Safety, said investigations into the matter are ongoing at both Butner Public Safety and the Highway Patrol. The investigations should be concluded in a couple weeks, Seneca said. “These investigations will be thorough,” he said. “We are looking at all aspects involved.” Seneca declined to comment further, citing state personnel privacy laws. Tapes of radio traffic and telephone calls released to the newspaper recorded Butner Lt. D.C. Parrott’s report of seeing a motorist in a Ford Mustang convertible on Interstate 85 swerving from lane to lane. It was 1:50 a.m., according to an incident report. After Parrott pulled the car, he can be heard calling for a supervisor to come to the scene of the traffic stop, at mile marker 191. Butner Capt. W.B. Williams, the supervisor on duty, responded to the scene. The Butner captain used a cell phone to call back in to headquarters and ask that a message be relayed to his supervisor Maj. A.W. Moss. “Advise him I have a trooper stopped,” Capt. W.B. Williams says. “He is a captain with the Highway Patrol and he is extremely 10-55.” The code 10-55 means “intoxicated driver.”

Kennedy grave site architect dies SAN FRANCISCO (AP) – John Carl Warnecke, the architect who worked closely with the Kennedys on numerous projects, including President John F. Kennedy’s grave site at Arlington National Cemetery, has died. He was 91. The California native died on April 17 from pancreatic cancer at his ranch near Healdsburg along the Russian River, his son, Fred, said. Warnecke met Kennedy in the early 1960s through a mutual friend, and he developed a close friendship with the first couple. The president tapped him to restore Lafayette Square across from the White House in 1962. He also looked at sites for Kennedy’s presidential library and worked on the Ken-
nedy’s homes in Hyannis Port, Mass., said Harold Adams, 71, who worked for Warnecke from 1962 to 1977. “The Kennedys enjoyed his philosophy,” said Adams, chairman emeritus of the Baltimore, Md.based design firm, RTKL Associates Inc. “I think they just got very comfortable with him and had great respect for him and his work.” Warnecke was a proponent of contextual architecture, known for bringing a sensitivity to environment and history in his designs. In Lafayette Square, his design preserved historic townhouses and placed new government buildings behind them, Adams said. At the naval academy in Annapolis, Md., his expansion plan worked within the academy’s existing footprint.
Lawsuit challenges part of Voting Rights Act RALEIGH (AP) – A lawsuit filed over local elections in a small North Carolina town could dislodge a major pillar of the 1965 Voting Rights Act, changing elections across the South and in a handful of other states. The Center for Individual Rights filed suit in federal court in Washington, D.C., this month on behalf of five residents in Kinston, a town of about 23,000 in eastern North Carolina, where voters opted two years ago to have nonpartisan local elections. The U.S. Department of Justice overturned the results of that referendum, arguing that nonpartisan elections, which are common in North Carolina municipalities, would effectively deny black voters the chance to elect candidates of their choice. The Voting Rights Act gives the Justice Department the authority to review and approve changes in election law or procedure by “jurisdictions” with a history of illegally impeding citizens’ voting rights. That part of the law, Section 5, is most extensively applied in the South, where the entire states of Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas are covered, along with virtually all of Virginia and large sections of North Carolina. At stake in the case is
the Justice Department’s power to make such decisions, a power that the conservative Washington, D.C.-based group that filed the lawsuit argues is unconstitutional. “The idea that an unelected bureaucrat in Washington, D.C., could overturn a valid, certified election is scary to me, quite honestly,” said Stephen LaRoque, the lead plaintiff in the case. The department receives between 14,000 and 22,000 submissions from jurisdictions every year, and most of them are approved, according to Nathaniel Persily, director of the Center for Law and Politics at Columbia Law School. The exceptions tend to be those seeking to redraw the boundaries of voting districts, Persily said, where the department is more likely to make objections. With the whole country facing congressional redistricting in 2011, the timing of the lawsuit could be critical. “If Section 5 gets struck down right in the middle of the redistricting season, it’s really going to throw everything into disarray,” he said. A 2009 U.S. Supreme Court decision that dealt with Section 5 in a Texas case left the provision standing, but conservative justices raised questions about its constitutionality.

Hybrids or heirlooms – which is best? lination. In the animal world, it is usually called intercourse. In either case, sperm type material mixes with egg like ECOLOGY material to produce the Gwyn offspring. Riddick The Home ■■■Garden Seed Association explains it this way: “...the term ‘hybrid’ describes seed that results from the controlled crossbreeding of two different but very specific varieties (‘breeding lines’) of the same plant. The male pollen is transferred to the female pistil, pollination occurs, and a seed is formed. This seed is designated the F1 hybrid.� This method allows the introduction of traits such as improved disease resistance, earlier maturation and better
yield. A couple of drawbacks of hybrid varieties is that the seed costs a little bit more than non-hybrids and you can’t save the seed since the offspring will not “come true.� That is, the saved seeds will not grow a hybrid but will revert back to several earlier genetic variants of the hybrid’s ancestors. On the other hand, before the breeding process of hybridization was discovered, all plants were open-pollinated and the breeding was random and not controlled. This means that offspring plants will most likely resemble the parents. There will be some variability among the plants, but not as much as with the offspring of hybrids. So one benefit of growing open-pollinated vs. hybrid is that you can save your own seed for replanting each year, knowing you’ll get reasonably uniform results according to HGSA.
Many gardeners swear that open-pollinated varieties taste better. An example would be an heirloom variety such as German Johnson of which there are more than eight distinct plants that people call German Johnson. The plant is very susceptible to fungal diseases and viral diseases such as Tobacco Mosaic Virus, which can distort the fruit and affect yields. According to HGSA, “The term ‘heirloom’ refers to old-time favorites – usually varieties that have been around for at least 50 years. Most heirlooms are open-pollinated, but not all. Burpee’s Big Boy hybrid was introduced in 1949, surely giving it the right to be called an heirloom.� The best determinant for which to grow open pollinated or hybrid is whether you think some varieties have better flavor than others or if you want to save seed from year to year or if your soil has cer-
Groped by cousin’s boyfriend, teen doesn’t know what to do
D
ear Abby: I am an average 17-yearold girl with a big problem. A few days ago, my cousin’s boyfriend touched me inappropriately. It took a few seconds for me to realize what was happening and stop him. I got up and left the room. I don’t want to tell my mom because she shares what we talk about with other people. I don’t want to tell my cousin because she loves her boyfriend, and if I ruin this for her, she’ll never speak to me again. I have seen her do it with other people. My cousin visits my house every day with her boyfriend. I have been leaving for hours so I won’t have to see him. Please help me. What other option do I have besides telling somebody? – Staying Silent in Guam Dear Staying Silent: You have two options. You can remain silent and let your cousin marry a man who has so little self-control that he would not only hit on
another woman, but one who is a close relative of hers. Or you can ADVICE tell your parents Dear what Abby happened ■■■so your cousin can be warned, and possibly save her from a world of heartache later on. Please be brave and do the right thing. Dear Abby: I know most of your readers are women, but could you please spread awareness of female-on-male domestic violence? You have done a great job with male-on-female abuse awareness, and I think American society is fairly well saturated with it. But there is little out there for men who have been or are being abused. – Minnesota Reader Dear Reader: Domestic violence is not restricted to any social,
racial, religious, economic group or particular gender. And while male victims may be embarrassed to disclose it, men can be victims of domestic violence, too. In years past, men were hesitant to call a domestic abuse hotline when there was a crisis because they were ashamed, had been bullied into thinking they “deserved it,� or were afraid they wouldn’t be believed. That is no longer the case. Male victims of domestic violence can find help by contacting the Domestic Abuse Helpline for Men and Women. The organization’s toll-free helpline is (888) 743-5754 or log onto its Web site at www.dahmw.org. Another organization, SAFE (Stop Abuse for Everyone), also assists victims of abuse regardless of age, gender or sexual orientation. Its Web site is www.safe4all. org. Dear Abby: My boyfriend and I have been together 10 months. I’m 18, and feel I have met the
man of my dreams. We were friends for a long time before we became a couple. My question is: Do you think a couple can spend too much time together? Every minute, every hour and every day that we can spend together we do – and I love it. But I don’t want this to ruin our relationship. Am I doing the right thing? – Confused in Mississauga, Ontario

tain tendencies for fungal or viral diseases. If you want to brag about your ‘heirlooms’ grow them, but if you want a relatively disease free, highyielding plant requiring less pesticides, you might want to grow a hybrid that has inbred disease resistance. By the way, if you grow tomatoes from rooted plant suckers or flowers or shrubs from cutting, you are indulging in “cloning,� but don’t let the word scare you. It has been misused by science fiction movies and books.

O
ne thing I learned after years of growing plants, vegetables, shrubs, trees and flowers on the farm and in greenhouses and nurseries is that the general public has a lot of confusion and misinformation about hybrids, clones and heirloom varieties of plants. In some circles there is great debate about one or the other of these as being the “best� or “true� varieties. Some alarmists even say that hybrids are “bad for you� and have no vitamins; conspiracists say that hybrids are a plot of the government to control the food you eat and determine prices in the marketplace. Plants and life are actually much simpler. When breeding occurs in the world of plants and animals, you often end up with offspring with visible and discernible traits of both parents. In the plant world this breeding process is called pol-

WASHINGTON (AP) – The president of Spirit Airlines says there’s been no significant fallout from his new charge for carryon bags. Ben Baldanza defends his business model in a nationally broadcast interview while acknowledging it didn’t sit well in some
quarters. He joked that he’d never consider charging for bathroom use. Appearing with Baldanza on NBC’s “Today� show, Sen. Charles Schumer said Spirit set a bad precedent by charging up to $45 for carry-on bags and said he hopes competitors don’t follow
suit. The New York Democrat said there might be legislation if the trend continues. Baldanza said carry-on fees “can cause some outrage,� but said Spirit simultaneously lowered its air fare and its passengers aren’t paying appreciably more than before.

This week’s deals have treated declarer’s trumpsuit management. To test your skill, cover the East-West cards. Against your four hearts, West leads the king of spades and then the queen. East overtakes with the ace and shifts to a low club. The actual declarer took the ace of clubs and cashed the three top trumps. He’d have been safe if trumps had split 33 or if either defender had held J-x, but East showed out on the third trump.
FOURTH TRUMP
DAILY QUESTION
South couldn’t afford to lead a fourth trump since the defenders would cash some spades. He started the diamonds, but East signaled count with the eight and seven, and West carefully discarded on the third diamond. He ruffed the fourth diamond and led a spade, and South had a club loser. South is safe if he maintains control so he can run the diamonds. At Trick Four South leads the ten of trumps. If West takes the jack and leads another club, South wins, draws trumps and safely discards his losing club on dummy’s fifth diamond.
You hold: S 7 3 H A K Q 10 D A Q J 4 C A K 4. With neither side vulnerable, your partner opens three spades, and the next player passes. What do you say? ANSWER: What is your partner’s style? If his preempts are textbook-solid and you can expect his suit to be K Q J 10 8 5 2, bid six spades. But many players now preempt liberally. Opposite a freespirited player whose spades might be Q 10 9 8 5 4 2, discretion would dictate settling for game. South dealer N-S 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.

Stress fractures are tiny bone cracks
D
ear Dr. Donohue: My daughter runs track for her high school. She’s a junior and has been on the track team since her freshman year. This past week, she complained of thigh pain. For a couple of days we used a heating pad, but it didn’t work. I had her see an orthopedic doctor. He took X-rays, but nothing was found. He then had her take a CT scan. It revealed stress fractures of her femur. I have no experience with this. She isn’t in a cast, but she is on crutches. How long does this take to heal? Will she run again? – N.D.

Stress fractures are tiny cracks in a bone. They come from doing too much work with too little rest. Athletes who suddenly increase their running time or running distances are the ones likely to develop stress fractures. They were a common injury for Army recruits until training schedules were modified to prevent them. Older people with osteoporosis are another sector of the population subject to them. Foot and lower leg bones are the ones that usually suffer stress fractures. They often are the cause of the shin pain called shin splints. The femur, the large thighbone, is less frequently involved. The pain of stress fractures ranges from mild to severe. Pain comes from the rubbing together of the surfaces of the stress cracks. Activity that doesn’t cause pain is permitted. By activity, I don’t mean your

daughter should run. Crutches allow her to get around without pain. If she’s a swimmer, her doctor will probably allow her to swim to
stay in shape. These fractures usually heal in three to four weeks. She might not be able to run this year, but she will next year. Only her doctor can approve of track running this year. If she is allowed to do so, she has to gradually work into it. Dear Dr. Donohue: What’s the better treatment for something like a muscle pull or a twisted ankle – ice or heat? I’ve gotten conflicting advice on this. – W.C. For the first two days of such injuries, cold or icing is the recommended therapy. Cold causes blood vessel constriction, which limits swelling. RICE is the acronym adopted for these injuries: Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation. Apply the ice or cold for 10 to 15 minutes every two or three hours while awake. From that point on, heat is preferred. Dry heat like a heating pad and moist heat (submersion in hot water or covering with a towel moistened with hot water) are equally good. The water should not be boiling. Application of heat is in the range of 15 to 20 minutes around
four or five times a day. Some authorities continue cold therapy throughout the recuperation period. Others alternate cold and heat in the same session. They claim that constriction of blood vessels with cold followed by expansion with heat creates a pumping action that reduces swelling faster. Stick with whatever feels better to the patient. Dear Dr. Donohue: You and other writers often tell exercisers to stay “well-hydrated.” That leaves me in the dark. What exactly does that mean? I need more precise instructions. I play hard racquetball for two hours at a time. – R.M. To stay well-hydrated, drink two 8-ounce glasses of water two to three hours before you get on the racquetball court. That’s enough time for water to leave the stomach and be absorbed. While playing, drink half a glass of water every 30 minutes. The fluid doesn’t have to be water. If you want to drink a sports drink, go ahead. You know if you drank enough fluid by weighing yourself before and after play. A pound of weight loss indicates your lost three-quarters of a quart of fluid. You haven’t lost fat weight. It’s all fluid. DR.

Edwards eager to storm back BY GREER SMITH ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER
Severe weather, including violent thunderstorms and the possibility of tornadoes, are forecast today for the area around Talladega Superspeedway. If the predictions hold true, there will be no qualifying for Sunday’s 500-mile Cup race, and a 312-mile Nationwide event will be washed out. Loss of qualifying means little because cars can swap position easily with help of the aerodynamic draft. Postponement of the Nationwide race just delays that chance of the violent wrecks that are the product of cars running packed together. Sunday will mark the one-year anniversary of one of the most violent rides in Talladega history. Carl Edwards was the pilot in the flight when he went from leading to sailing into the grandstand catch fence in an unsuccessful effort to hold off Brad Keselowski. Edwards escaped unharmed, but seven people were injured when they were struck by debris from the fence and Edwards’ car, which went out of control when Edwards

Carl Edwards’ car disintegrates as it flies through the air after ripping the catch fence at the finish of last year’s spring race at Talladega Superspeedway. tried to block Keselowski for a second time. Edwards’ Ford lifted when it spun and then was punted by Ryan Newman. Edwards looks forward to having the opportunity to be pushed to the lead in the final laps as he was by Keselwoski as they went past Newman and Dale Earnhardt Jr. “The best I can hope for is to be in the exact same situation again,” Edwards said. “Whether it’s Brad or somebody else to be pushing me, for us to be separated and just have a battle between me and one other guy.
I don’t know how I would feel in that same situation. Nothing teaches you like a little pain, and that wreck was painful for a number of reasons, so I’d say that it’ll be in my mind to make sure that I defend my car the best I can so that I have the best chance of winning.” Edwards initially blocked Keselowski’s move to the right, but by the time Edwards tried to counter to the left, Kesleowski’s nose was beside Edwards’ fender. “Maybe if I wouldn’t have blocked the first way and let him go on the outside, maybe we could have had a different race to the end, but those are split-second decisions,” Edwards said. “You’re looking at the checkered flag. I hoped for the best and I got the worst. “I’ve replayed that race a lot and thought, ‘How could I have done a better job?’ But I think we showed right there – Brad and I – that if you work with someone and you work together, you can put yourself in a position to win. So I’m hoping I can find somebody to work with like that and we can make something happen.” gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3519
‘Albatross’ sets stage for Kivett Inside...

Updated Bud Kivett tee times. 2C BY STEVE HANF ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER
HIGH POINT – This weekend’s Bud Kivett Memorial City Golf Championship may have a hard time matching the excitement at Oak Hollow on Friday. During sponsor day festivities leading up to the 34th annual city championship, a golfer recorded a hole-in-one on the first hole. And oh by the way – that would be a 325-yard par-4. “That was quite a start,” said Steve High, Director of Golf for the city of High Point. “It didn’t take long for the stories to filter all around the golf course.” The feat was accomplished by Bradley Gibson, who was playing in the Jones & Peacock Insurance foursome with Jason Boger, Daniel Allen and George Ragsdale. The first hole is short enough that most long hitters try to bomb a drive through the trees that guard the green. That’s especially the case in a captain’s choice event, where three other tee shots could be used if needed. As the foursome left the tee box, three of the four balls were located. The fourth remained a mystery. High said the team was about to give up and play its other best ball when someone happened to glance in the hole and saw a ball. A course worker witnessed the ball being
pulled from the hole, and sure enough, it belonged to Gibson. The ball had several marks on it from an apparent high hop off the cart path that helped send it on its way to the cup. According to research by “Golf World” magazine, the odds of hitting a double-eagle – also known as an albatross – are about a million-to-one, while aces on a par-3 are about 13,000to-one. The article showed that from 1983 to 2003 on the PGA Tour, there were 631 aces – and just 56 double-eagles. Remarkably, the Jones & Peacock foursome went on to win the 19-team event by one shot, shooting a 58 – so that “1” came in mighty handy. Friday’s festivities were for companies that raise money as hole sponsors and other tournament programs to benefit High Point Regional Health System’s Heart Strides Cardiac and Pulmonary Rehab Program. Bud Kivett was a renowned local golfer who died in the 1970s from heart failure, and the city championship has been named in his memory for decades. The two-round tournament tees off today from Blair Park with about 140 players, among the smallest fields in years. High said anyone interested in playing can arrive at Blair Park prior to the first 7:52 a.m. tee time and “we’ll find them a spot to play.” Registration for the event costs $35. The tournament concludes Sunday at Oak Hollow. shanf@hpe.com | 888-3526

Panthers pick Clausen CHARLOTTE (AP) — Carolina Panthers general manager Marty Hurney spent much of Friday trying to move up in the draft to take Jimmy Clausen, a day after the Notre Dame quarterback was a surprising first-round snub. Hurney couldn’t strike a deal, however, and when Arizona traded up to the 47th slot — one pick ahead of the Panthers — Hurney acknowledged he was crushed, sure the Cardinals were going to take him. “I could lie, but I won’t,” Hurney said. Only the Cardinals passed on Clausen, too. It didn’t take Hurney long to pounce — shaking up Carolina’s newly shuffled quarterback depth chart. “You always say any-
thing can happen,” Hurney said, smiling. “Wow, it happened. ... We think he’s Clausen an excellent quarterback and we feel extremely fortunate to get a quarterback of his ability with the 48th pick.” After sitting out the first night of the draft with no first-round pick, the Panthers addressed one of their biggest needs and perhaps presented immediate competition to newly minted starter Matt Moore. The 6-foot-3, 222-pound Clausen was rated as a first-round pick — perhaps even in the top 10 — by many analysts. But he wasn’t selected on Thurs-
day, perhaps because of concerns about his leadership and personality. Carolina didn’t hesitate, taking him ahead of his college teammate, Golden Tate, and other receiver prospects. The Panthers also decided to wait on addressing holes on the defensive line. It ended a wait for Clausen similar to fellow former Fighting Irish QB Brady Quinn in 2007. Even Florida’s Tim Tebow was picked ahead of him on Thursday. In the third round, Carolina addressed its weakness at wide receiver by taking Brandon LaFell of LSU. Clausen said his agent had told him Washington had considered taking him at No. 4.

L
orena Ochoa decided to put family first, confirming her plans to retire on Friday and leaving the LPGA without its topranked player. While women’s golf will miss its most famous international draw, Ochoa deserves credit for her decision. The 28-year-old Mexican superstar got married last year. She repeatedly expressed her desire to have kids of her own and spend more time with her husband and his three children from a previous marriage.
Ochoa exits the stage on top. She’s won 27 tournaments over the past six seasons and was ranked No. 1 in the world each of the previous three seasons. Ochoa owns two major titles and four straight LPGA Player of the Year awards, Her retirement figures to be a severe blow to the LPGA. Attendance and TV ratings declined steadily in recent years and sponsorships have been tougher to come by for players and events.
This year’s LPGA schedule includes only 25 events, with 14 in the United States and 11 abroad. I wish Ochoa all the best in her retirement from pro golf. It reminds me of a talented Georgian who retired from competitive golf at age 28 many years ago to focus on his family and law career. That fellow’s name? Bobby Jones.

Harvick knows wherever he lands, he’d like to stick with Chevrolet. Harvick’s future with Richard Childress Racing appeared to take a huge a hit after Shell Oil Company’s decision to transfer its sponsorship from Harvick to Kurt Busch starting next season. Harvick said he’s unsure where he’ll drive next year, but has had ongoing conversations with Childress. “I don’t think there’s anything pressing timewise for anybody, whether it’s the team at RCR or myself,� Harvick said Friday at Talladega Superspeedway. Harvick is a free agent at the end of this season, and became the most-
TALLADEGA, Ala. (AP) — Kurt Busch is staying put with Penske Racing. Busch signed a contract extension to continue driving for Penske Racing in the same week the former Cup champion got a new sponsor. Busch said team owner Roger Penske held an option on 2011 that had already been picked up. But when Shell Oil Co. this week moved its sponsorship to Penske,
the driver agreed to a new contract. Busch said on Friday his new contract is a five-year deal. “I definitely look to have my career end here at Penske Racing,� Busch said at Talladega Superspeedway. “Hopefully, that’s 10-15 years down the road.� The 2004 NASCAR champion said he considered scenarios with other teams, but didn’t speak to any other organizations because he’d like to end his career with Penske.
NCAA approves 35 bowls INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — The NCAA has approved 35 bowl games for the next four years, including two new ones: the Dallas Football Classic and the New Era Pinstripe Bowl in New York. The NCAA said Friday that the bowls were licensed on a four-year cycle for the first time, though they will be reviewed each year. The move puts the licensing schedule — from 2010-11 through 2013-14 — in line with the length of bowl conference agreements. The first Pinstripe Bowl will be played at
Yankee Stadium in the Bronx on Dec. 30. It will include the No. 3 team in the Big East and the No. 6 school in the Big 12, excluding Bowl Championship Series participants. The first Dallas Football Classic at the Cotton Bowl is planned for New Year’s Day 2011, involving the seventh-ranked team from the Big 12 against the sixth-ranked team from the Big Ten. Future games will include Conference USA. Bowl applications were denied for the Cure Bowl in Orlando, Fla., and the Christmas Bowl in Los Angeles.
Cornell hires Hokie assistant BY JOHN KEKIS AP SPORTS WRITER
Virginia Tech assistant Bill Courtney was hired as Cornell’s basketball coach Friday, succeeding Steve Donahue at a school that did the Ivy League proud with its NCAA tournament run. This is the first head coaching job for Courtney, a 39-year-old well-traveled assistant who was introduced at the Ithaca, N.Y., campus. “Bill Courtney brings an array of qualities to Cornell basketball that I am confident will lead the Big Red to continued success within the Ivy league

A representative of the New York Jets works at the team’s table while on the clock during the second round of the NFL Draft at Radio City Music Hall on Friday.
Clausen draws most attention among second-round picks NEW YORK (AP) — Some big stars came out for the second round of the NFL draft, in front of a nearly full Radio City Music Hall. Unfortunately, Jim Brown, Dan Marino, Ray Lewis and Floyd Little were announcing the selections, not being picked. Instead of Heisman Trophy winners and All-Americans, the opening choices of Friday night’s second round were Indiana tackle Rodger Saffold, Virginia cornerback Chris Cook, and UCLA defensive tackle Brian Price. Yes, quality players, but hardly headline makers. Until Notre Dame quarterback Jimmy Clausen went to Carolina at No. 48 overall — more than 40 picks lower than some projected — few of the early selections drew much response from the surprisingly large audience. Then again, with the way the NFL has turned the first prime-time draft into an event, seeing the venerable theater packed makes sense. So did the opening choices. Needing a blocker for quarterback Sam Bradford, the first overall pick the previous night, the Rams ignored several trade offers to stay put. They went for an experienced player who started for four seasons with the Hoosiers. “Oh man, it was a long night,� Saffold said. “Your heart’s racing the entire time and I’m just glad St. Louis called. I didn’t know how much longer I could have taken it.� The Rams fielded plenty of bids for the pick. “We would have had to move significantly back in the second round,� general manager Billy Devaney said, “and what we were going to get we didn’t think it was worth passing up a lineman that we deemed had this much talent.�
PANTHERS DRAFT EDWARDS
----
CHARLOTTE – One of North Carolina’s most decorated college players is staying in the state to play for the Panthers. Carolina traded for an extra thirdround pick on Friday to take Appalachian State’s Armanti Edwards with the 89th pick. The Panthers gave up next year’s second-round pick to New England to take the undersized quarterback, who led the Mountaineers to a monumental upset over Michigan and two FCS national titles. It was part of a wild draft night for the Panthers, who also took Notre Dame quarterback Jimmy Clausen with the 48th pick and LSU receiver Brandon LaFell 78th overall. Minnesota, which traded out of the first round, has had injury issues at cornerback, so Cook should be helpful. And Tampa Bay’s defensive line has been a sieve, which it addressed with the selections of Oklahoma’s Gerald McCoy at No. 3 overall and then Price. Clausen, a three-year starter for the Fighting Irish under Charlie Weis, was 16-18 as a starter after being one of the nation’s most sought recruits. The Panthers’ choice drew scattered boos, but with Jake Delhomme gone and Matt Moore the incumbent, Carolina seems a good landing spot. “I think it’s going to help me tremendously, being in coach Weis’ system,� Clausen said of the offense run by John Fox in Carolina. “Coach Fox told me he said it was the same exact system I’ve played in the last three years. I’m really excited about that.�
Goodell can increase Roethlisberger’s suspension NEW YORK (AP) — The NFL can increase the six-game suspension for Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger if new evidence of misbehavior emerges that violates its personal conduct policy. Commissioner Roger Goodell handed down the punishment after prosecutors decided not to charge Roethlisberger in a case involving a 20-yearold college student who accused him of sexually assaulting her in a Georgia nightclub last month.
Roethlisberger also must undergo a comprehensive behavioral evaluation by professionals. Goodell said Friday at his annual session with Associated Press Sports Editors that the conduct policy allows him to revisit the ban, announced earlier this week. If evidence of other incidents is presented, “the penalty still has some flexibility,� Goodell said. In explaining why he acted even though no criminal charges were filed against the quar-

Serber breaks HPU’s complete-game drought SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE
HIGH POINT – Senior Jamie Serber pitched the first complete game for High Point University since 2007, leading the Panthers to a 7-1 win over Big South rival UNC Asheville on Friday at Williard Stadium. Serber held the Bulldogs scoreless through eight innings, allowing one run in the last inning on his way to the first complete game of his career. “This was arguably the best opening game of a series all season,” said coach Craig Cozart. “What can I say about the job Jamie Serber did tonight? He set the tone for the entire weekend and allowed us to have the full use of our bullpen for the doubleheader tomorrow. We took
advantage of offensive opportunities and played good solid baseball. If we play that way for 18 innings tomorrow we will come out with two more wins.” Due to the threat of rain on Sunday, the teams will play a doubleheader today with the first game beginning at 2 p.m. The second game will begin approximately 45 minutes after game one ends. Serber’s complete game is the first at HPU since Bubba O’Donnell threw nine scoreless innings against East Tennessee State University on March 10, 2007. “I felt good tonight and I got better as the game went along,” Serber said. “I kept them scoreless in the first and fifth innings which are the spots I have struggled this season. If you take those
walks away in the ninth I get the shutout. It feels good to get the win. I have pitched well the last few weeks and not gotten one, but baseball is a funny game that way.” Serber gave up back to back singles to lead off the seventh inning but stifled Asheville’s attempt to break up the shutout by getting Cody Buch to pop up in foul territory and Jacob Edwards to ground in to a double play. It was the fourth double play Serber induced in the game. He stranded eight Asheville runners in the game. In the ninth inning, Ian Graham led off with a single for UNC Asheville, and two walks loaded the bases for the Bulldogs with one out. They were able to push home a run when Buch grounded
to third base and Serber ended the game with another ground ball to shortstop. He threw 116 pitches in the game, walking four batters and striking out two, improving his record for the season to 4-1. Senior Matt Gantner went 2-for-3 with two runs scored and two RBI. He hit his seventh home run of the season to lead off the fourth inning. Nate Roberts was 3for-4 in the game with two doubles, scoring two runs. Roberts has now scored 61 runs this season and needs five more to set the HPU record for runs scored in a season. Otis Foster currently holds the record, scoring 65 in 1975. High Point improves to 20-21 (6-10 Big South) while UNC Asheville falls to 1123, 5-11.
Charlotte tastes playoffs again CHARLOTTE (AP) — Paul Silas remembers how strange and uncomfortable it was in 2002 when he coached an unwanted team in a city that had turned its back on the NBA. Silas looked into the stands for the opening game of the playoffs and saw 9,505 fans in the 23,799-seat Charlotte Coliseum. The final game — a second-round playoff loss to New Jersey — drew less than 14,000. Days later, the Hornets were officially property of New Orleans. “It was kind of disheartening and disconcerting because we did have a good team,” Silas recalled Friday. “It was very difficult. It was really bad at that particular point.” Eight years later, a new team with a different name and colors owned by favorite son Michael Jordan will play in front of a full house in a new downtown arena on Saturday, Charlotte’s first taste of the playoffs since the Hornets’ ugly exit. And the six-year-old Bobcats need all the sup-
port they can get down 2-0 to powerful Orlando in their best-of-seven series. “It’s going to be crazy,” Bobcats guard Raymond Felton said. “It’s something the city of Charlotte has been waiting on.” But will the shift in venue matter? The Bobcats have looked overmatched for much of the first two games in Orlando. Dwight Howard’s foul trouble and a less-thanstellar offense haven’t mattered. The Magic have smothered Charlotte with defense and just enough 3-pointers, showing all the confidence of a team that made it to the finals last season. Not even the prospect of Jordan’s imposing, referee-baiting presence at the end of the Bobcats’ bench for Game 3 seems to bother the Magic and feisty coach Stan Van Gundy. “Come on, Michael Jordan hasn’t had time to do anything as an owner,” Van Gundy said when asked of his impact since buying the team.
Pierce’s jumper cools Heat MIAMI (AP) — Paul Pierce’s 21-foot jumper at the buzzer — with injured Miami star Dwyane Wade watching helplessly from the bench — gave Boston a 100-98 win Friday night in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference first-round series. The Celtics lead the best-of-seven 3-0, and will go for the sweep Sunday
in Miami. No NBA team has ever rallied from an 0-3 deficit. Wade hurt his left calf after missing a 3-pointer with 14 seconds left, with replays showing he landed on Celtics guard Ray Allen’s foot. Wade crumpled to the court and was carried off by reserve center Jamaal Magloire and trainer Jay Sabol.
Mets’ Davis sinks Braves NEW YORK (AP) — Ike Davis hit a 450-foot shot for his first major league homer to win a matchup of prize rookies and the New York Mets added a crazy run on Chipper Jones’ error Friday night in a 5-2 victory over the Atlanta Braves. Emergency reliever Hisanori Takahashi excelled after John Maine left with an odd injury, helping the
Mets win for the fourth time in five games. Atlanta lost its third in a row. Nate McLouth nearly tied it in the ninth, but his bid for a tying, three-run homer off Francisco Rodriguez barely hooked foul. Davis delivered a monster drive while Atlanta newcomer Jason Heyward struck out three times in going 0 for 4.

BUFFALO, N.Y. — Adam Mair, Jason Pominville, and Mike Grier scored in the first 30 minutes for the Buffalo Sabres, who rebounded from a devastating loss and beat the Boston Bruins 4-1 on Friday night to force a sixth game in the Eastern Conference firstround series. Boston goalie Tuukka Rask had outplayed Buffalo’s Ryan Miller, but only barely, as the

New home sales, durable goods orders rise WASHINGTON (AP) – Sales of new homes took the biggest monthly jump in 47 years in March, while orders for most large manufactured products rose by the largest amount since the recession started. The two reports were a sign that the recovery is picking up speed, and some economists are raising their estimates for U.S. economic growth this year. “The recovery has been proceeding at a more rapid pace than we thought,” said Zach Pandl, economist with Nomura Securities in New York. Factories are benefiting

GM dumps longtime Chevrolet ad agency DETROIT – The agency that created the line “See the U.S.A. in Your Chevrolet” and other memorable ad campaigns for the car brand over the past 91 years is being replaced. General Motors Co. said Friday it is shifting the Chevrolet ad business from Campbell-Ewald of suburban Detroit to Publicis Worldwide. Campbell-Ewald has been the Chevrolet ad agency since 1919.
Administration cuts bailout cost estimate WASHINGTON – Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner is telling Congress that the administration believes the final cost of the government’s heavily criticized financial bailout effort could be as low as $87 billion. Geithner made the new estimate in a letter Friday to congressional leaders. A year ago, officials were estimating the bailout could cost as much as $500 billion. The new estimate said the biggest losses will occur from the government’s support of mortgage companies Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. That loss was put at $85 billion.
Oil prices settle above $85 a barrel NEW YORK – Oil prices rose above $85 on Friday helped by strong sales of new homes that surged last month from a record low in February. Meanwhile, efforts to resolve Greece’s debt crisis and its impact on economic recovery and energy demand kept traders on edge. Benchmark crude for June delivery rose $1.42 to settle at $85.12 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. ENTERPRISE NEWS SERVICE REPORTS

from a sharp increase in orders from U.S. and foreign businesses. But the housing market’s fuel is coming from a less sustainable source: government subsidies. Some analysts predict demand for homes will fall again over the summer, preventing the beleaguered sector from adding much to the economic recovery. The government is offering an $8,000 tax credit for first-time buyers and $6,500 for current homeowners who buy and move into another property. To qualify, buyers must have a signed contract complete by the end of next week and need to finish their
transaction by the end of June. Major homebuilders like Lennar Corp., Hovnanian Enterprises Inc. and MDC Holdings Inc. are aggressively promoting countdowns to April 30 or “last chance” sales on their websites. MDC Holdings, which builds communities in 10 states under the name Richmond American Homes, is also offering to pay closing costs for buyers. But CEO Larry Mizel warned investors Friday, “we remain cautious due to the impending expiration of the federal homebuyer tax credit and depressed overall economic conditions.”
Lawmakers target credit raters WASHINGTON (AP) – Lawmakers rewriting financial regulations took aim Friday at credit rating agencies, whose analysts often gave safe ratings to risky investments that contributed to the financial crisis. Sen. Carl Levin, D-Mich., said the Senate’s regulatory overhaul should go further to curb the industry’s inherent conflicts of interest: The agencies are paid by the banks whose investments they rate. At a hearing Levin chaired Friday, former executives acknowledged that competition within the industry often led the agencies’ analysts to rate highrisk securities as safe. Levin suggested the codependent relationship between the agencies and the banks is a dangerous flaw in the financial system. The Senate next week is
expected to take up a version of the financial regulatory legislation that would require only a study of the industry’s conflict of interest. The House-passed bill would go further. It would instruct the Securities and Exchange Commission to produce a policy that would either bar the conflicts or require the agencies to disclose their relationships with banks. Former executives of Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s testified that pressure from competitors and management pushed their analysts to award safe ratings to risky investments. There was a “disconnect” between senior managers and the analytical managers responsible for assigning bond ratings, said Frank Raiter, a former managing director for Standard & Poor’s.
Beazer buyers filing for big refunds MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE
More than 60 Beazer Homes customers got free legal help last weekend in Charlotte to file claims totaling more than $310,000. The payouts come under the $50 million settlement the builder reached last summer with federal prosecutors. This week, more than 130 additional people have called for help from the Charlotte School of Law, which is providing the free service. Dozens more have e-mailed for help. Because of high demand, two more free refund clinics have been scheduled for next month, said third-year law student Stratford Kiger, one of the organizers. The biggest claim filed
last Saturday was for $23,000, with a lot in the $8,000 range, said Kiger, a former banker and member of the Public Interest Law Society student organization. Beazer, once one of the Charlotte area’s largest builders, built thousands of homes in the region. The clinics are one of the last steps in a process triggered by a 2007 Observer series that found Beazer arranged loans some buyers couldn’t afford and violated federal lending rules, which prompted several federal investigations. Under an agreement with prosecutors, Beazer accepted responsibility for fraudulent practices and agreed to pay $10 million immediately toward restitution for victimized homebuyers.

Stocks continue winning streak NEW YORK (AP) – Investors expecting a pullback in stocks – and there are plenty of them – are going to have to wait. As of Friday the Dow Jones industrial average marked its longest winning streak in more than six years. Stocks climbed again Friday after a strong report on new home sales offset mixed news from corporate earnings reports. Investors were also keeping a cautious eye fixed on Greece’s ongoing debt problems after the country decided to tap a bailout program. The Dow Jones industrial average closed the day higher for the 11th time in the past 12 trading days. Friday’s 70-point gain wrapped up the index’s eighth straight weekly rise, which matches its longest string of gains since a two-month stretch that ended in January 2004. Analysts have been saying for weeks that the market could be primed for a pullback, yet it still hasn’t materialized. “It’s been quite a run,” said Stephen Carl, head of equity trading at The Williams Capital Group in New York. Carl said momentum could be slowing after stocks have been on a nearly unbroken path upward over the past two months.

Goldman CEO, board named in lawsuit
FILE | AP
The Xerox Corporation Headquarters is seen in Norwalk, Conn. Xerox Corp. posted its first revenue ain in more than a year Friday.
Xerox’s first-quarter results lift stock as revenue climbs NEW YORK (AP) – Xerox Corp. posted its first quarter of revenue growth in more than a year on Friday, boosted by its foray into the services business and an upswing in corporate spending on printer and copier supplies. The company also offered a second-quarter earnings forecast that topped Wall Street expectations. Its stock rose 90 cents, or 8.6 percent, to $11.35 in late afternoon trading after hitting a new 52-week high of $11.72 earlier in the day. The results came about 10 weeks after Xerox closed its $6.4 billion acquisition of business outsourcer Affiliated Computer Services Inc. and offered more evidence that companies are loosening their purse strings as the recession eases. Xerox posted a loss of $42 million, or 4 cents per share, for the first three months of the year, compared with a profit of $42 million,
or 5 cents per share, a year earlier. Earnings were dragged down in the most recent quarter by one-time expenses related to layoffs and its acquisition of ACS. Excluding one-time costs, however, Xerox said it earned 18 cents per share, beating the average forecast from analysts of 13 cents per share, according to Thomson Reuters. Revenue jumped 33 percent to $4.7 billion, primarily because of the ACS acquisition. Assuming that the deal had gone through a year ago, revenue would be up 5 percent, Xerox said. Analysts expected $4.65 billion. The increase in revenue came mainly from the addition of ACS’s business outsourcing segment, which takes on functions for other companies such as payroll or run health care filings. Xerox was already doing some outsourcing, handling the flow of
documents and printer systems for other companies. But the acquisition helped Xerox more than double its first-quarter services revenue. Assuming the deal had already gone through last year, services revenue was up 3 percent to $1.8 billion. Sales of copier and printer supplies also picked up as corporate spending rebounded from the depths of the recession last year, climbing 15 percent. The company’s forecast for the quarter ending in June beat estimates. It expects earnings excluding one-time items of 20 cents to 22 cents per share. Analysts were looking for 18 cents, on average. Xerox also said it expects fullyear earnings at the top end of its previous forecast, which called for 75 cents to 85 cents per share, excluding items. The average forecast is for 81 cents.
NEW YORK (AP) – Goldman Sachs’s CEO and other top officers are accused in a pair of shareholder lawsuits of lax oversight in deals involving risky mortagebacked securities that later went bad. The lawsuits filed Thursday in New York State Supreme Court name Lloyd Blankfein and the firm’s entire board of directors as defendants. The suits follow civil fraud charges filed last week by the Securities and Exchange Commission over the same investments. The SEC says Goldman committed fraud by failing to disclose important
information about the securities that might have scared off investors. The two suits, filed by shareholders Robert Rosinek and Morton Spiegel, accuse Blankfein and other officers of “systematic failure” over 31⁄2 years for not properly vetting 23 mortgage-linked deals at the center of the SEC suit. Those deals, called Abacus, led to $1 billion in losses. A Goldman spokesman declined to comment. The suits appear to be the first shareholder cases related to the Abacus deals. If so, they may mark the start of what legal experts expect will be a flood of shareholder cases against Goldman Sachs.
Merck: Health overhaul to cost roughly $320 million TRENTON, N.J. (AP) – The drugmaker Merck & Co. said Friday the federal health care overhaul will reduce its revenue by about $170 million this year and by roughly double that amount next year – less than the impact some rivals have reported. Its shares rose on the news. Merck also expects to take a non-cash charge of about $150 million in the first quarter, due to elimination of the tax benefit for providing prescription drug coverage to company retirees. Merck said new rebates
to the Medicaid program, required in the federal health care legislation passed last month, and other changes will reduce its revenue by about $35 million in the first quarter and $170 million for all of 2010. In 2011, the company said it expects unfavorable sales impact of about $300 million to $350 million. Despite those costs, Merck said that it is still aiming to produce compound annual growth in the high single digits excluding one-time items through 2013 compared with its 2009 results.

Fed sought new safety rules Concern grew after compiling data on oil drilling accidents, deaths NEW ORLEANS (AP) – A federal agency that oversees offshore oil drilling was so concerned about deaths and injuries it had documented that it was moving to impose new safety rules even before this week’s oil rig explosion off the Louisiana coast, according to records obtained by The Associated Press. A Minerals and Management Service review published last year found 41 deaths and 302 injuries out of 1,443 accidents, the majority caused by human error and operational and maintenance problems. The new rules focus on
preventing human error, a safety area that hadn’t received as much attention in the past. The accidents and the explosion have again brought criticisms of the industry and opponents of President Barack Obama’s plan for more offshore drilling say the collapse should be taken as a warning to slow the fervor to drill. As officials continued to search for what caused the blast, crews were making progress cleaning up oil from the explosion Tuesday, and trying to contain what spilled and prevent any threat to
the coast’s fragile ecosystem. The Coast Guard was also using an airplane, a helicopter and a Coast Guard cutter to continue looking for 11 missing workers even as hopes diminished that they survived. Officials did receive good news Friday when Coast Guard Rear Adm. Mary Landry said no oil appeared to be leaking from a well head at the ocean floor, nor was any leaking at the water’s surface. But she said crews were closely monitoring the rig for any more crude that might spill out.
Snow closes courthouses, snarls traffic in Colorado DENVER (AP) – A powerful spring storm dropped snow, sleet and rain across much of Colorado on Friday, spawning tornadoes and snarling traffic.

FABULOUS, FRIVOLOUS Rascal Flatts tapped to perform FAMOUS, --at Kentucky Derby LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) – Rascal Flatts will perform the national anthem May 1 at the Kentucky Derby in Louisville. Officials announced Thursday that the group, one of country music’s top acts, will perform “The Star-Spangled Banner� at the 136th Run for the Roses at Churchill Downs. Last year, LeAnn Rimes became the first national
recording artist invited to sing the national anthem at the Derby, and the track said the addition was popular with fans so organizers decided to continue it. Churchill Downs said it also will be adding a performance at the Kentucky Oaks, with Grammy Award-nominated quartet Little Big Town performAP ing the national anthem (From left) Jay DeMarcus, Gary LeVox, and Joe Don at the April 30 race.

Chevy’s minivan substitute going strong ANN M. JOB THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

–
The Chevrolet Traverse is helping people forget about minivans. The seven- to eight-passenger Traverse crossover sport utility vehicle with a car-like ride, SUV styling and high ride height offers the seating capacity and cargo-hauling capability of a minivan. But it looks more attractive than a boxy van and can tow up to 5,200 pounds – way more than a typical minivan can. The Traverse even has a higher government fuel economy rating – 17 miles per gallon in city driving and 24 mpg on the highway with front-wheel drive – than the last Chevy minivan, the Uplander. In addition, the Traverse earned five out of five stars in federal government frontal and side crash tests, and unlike the Uplander, the Traverse is a recommended buy of Consumer Reports magazine. The biggest drawback: The 2010 Traverse’s starting retail price is some $7,600 more than that of the Uplander, which was dropped after the 2008 model year. The Traverse’s starting
AP
The 2010 Chevrolet Traverse earned a five-star rating in frontal and side crash tests. retail price for 2010 also is $3,250 more than the starting retail price for America’s top-selling minivan, the 2010 Chrysler Town & Country. Specifically, the 2010 Traverse has a starting manufacturer’s suggested retail price, including destination charge, of $29,999 as a front-wheel drive LS model with 281-horsepower V-6, automatic trans-
mission and eight seats. An all-wheel drive Traverse starts at $31,999. This compares with the competing 2010 Honda Pilot, which starts at $28,755 with two-wheel drive and 250-horsepower V-6 and $30,355 with all-wheel drive. The 2010 Ford Flex starts at $28,725 with twowheel drive and 262-horsepower V-6 and $34,375 with all-wheel drive.
To be sure, the 2010 Traverse has the lowest starting retail price of any of its siblings – the GMC Acadia and Buick Enclave, all made by General Motors. The starting retail price for a front-wheel drive, 2010 GMC Acadia is $32,515. An all-wheel drive Acadia starts at $34,515. Like its siblings, the Traverse comes with one engine choice: A 3.6-liter,
double overhead cam V-6 with direct injection and variable valve timing. The engine develops 281 horsepower in base mode, which is with a single exhaust pipe. An uplevel version has two exhaust pipes, which allow less restricted engine “breathing” and 288 horsepower. Torque in the Traverse peaks at either 266 footpounds at 3,600 rpm or 270

Now is the time to make your move to buy W
ith little time left to take advantage of the tax credit, many buyers are having to choose between speeding up the home-buying process to qualify for the credit, or giving up the credit to spend more time looking for the perfect home. Buying a home should never be a snap decision, however, procrastination often comes disguised as “careful planning.” If you are just now starting the process, the best use of the precious time you have left is the time you will spend with your Realtor. A Realtor can help you make the best of what time you have left for claiming the tax credit. For example, there are two attractive options for buyers looking for a deal. One is the short sale. If you are considering a short sale, it would be wise to only consider short sales where the lender has already pre-ap-
proved a list price. Otherwise, you may waste valuable time negotiating only to find out that the lender is not even willing to come close to REAL ESTATE your price range. Ken Your Realtor can Wall ask the neces■■■ sary questions to determine if the lender of the property you are considering has been contacted in advance and has given their consent to accept a payoff that is less than the amount currently owed on the property, or if the property has simply been placed on the market without the lender having consented to participate in a short sale process. Another attractive option that buyers are seeking, are many foreclosures that continue to be available in our current mar-
ket. If you are purchasing one of these foreclosure properties and are using FHA financing, your Realtor can point out which properties may not qualify for FHA financing due to deferred maintenance or repairs that are necessary. Don’t be a disappointed buyer who gets a foreclosure property under contract before the April 30 deadline only to have their deal fall apart in May when the appraiser visits the property and reports to your lender that it does not meet FHA requirements. If this happens to you, you will have to start the process over and you will have missed the deadline for being under contract for the tax credit. If you are already approved before meeting with your Realtor, make sure you give them a copy of your pre-approval letter so they can see the type of financing that you will
be using so you can avoid this tragedy. Also, don’t forget that short sales and foreclosures are not the only bargains on the market. Sellers are aware that they are competing with foreclosures and short sales and many are pricing their properties competitively. Your local Realtor can make sure that you get all the information you need to make a good buying decision and also make sure that you are exposed to all the opportunities that are currently on the market. 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.
Yost & Little Realtor Gil Vaughan earns NAR Short Sales and Foreclosure Resource certification awarded GRI designation SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE
GREENSBORO – Gil Vaughan with Yost & Little Realty has earned the nationally recognized Short Sales and Foreclosure Resource certification. The National Association of Realtors offers the SFR certification to Realtors who want to help both buyers and sellers navigate these complicated transactions as demand for professional expertise with distressed sales grows.
The certification program includes training on how to qualify Vaughan sellers for short sales, negotiate with lenders, protect buyers and limit risk and provides resources to help Realtors stay current on national and state-specific information as the market for these distressed properties evolves. “Many of our current
monthly existing home sales are either short sales or foreclosures”, says Gil Vaughan. “I believe that it is our responsibility as Realtors to help both sellers and buyers through the complex and somewhat stressful process of a short sale or foreclosure. The SFR certification program gives me this ability.” To contact Gil Vaughan about a short sale or foreclosure, call (336) 644-2091 or email him at gvaughan@yostandlittle. com.

Tips for downsizing home sellers approaching retirement
F
or years, an attorney and her husband – a retired IBM manager – relished the spacious colonial house where they raised four children. They couldn’t imagine selling their beloved seven-bedroom house. But now they can’t wait to downsize. The sudden urge to move came after the attorney fell down the stairs and was seriously injured. This changed the couple’s perspective entirely. They soon put the property up for sale and found a much smaller townhouse with an elevator where they can live comfortably as the wife moves into retirement. As this couple’s story illustrates, health problems are a common trigger causing homeowners to sell and seek smaller quarters, says Natalie Conrad, a professional organizer and author of “Organize to Downsize,” a workbook for downsizers. In an economy with high unemployment and salary cutbacks, financial realities are also a leading reason why many people have to downsize. Still others, including many in their late 50s and early 60s, voluntarily downsize to simplify their lives and gain freedom. “There comes a point in many lives when there’s a yearning to reorder priorities. People downsize for the chance to pursue other options,” says Lin Schreiber, a life coach who counsels those seeking to recast their
lives in retirement. Are you planning to scale back your housing for your retirement years? If so, these pointers could prove useful: • Search for a location that feels right to you for SMART MOVES positive reasons. As they approach retireEllen ment, many people focus Martin solely on the annoyances ■■■ and aggravations they’ll escape once they’re liberated from their job. But in addition, Schreiber urges clients to concentrate on the options that await them as they reinvent their lives. “Give yourself permission to explore all the possibilities that interest you before making a decision,” says Schreiber, whose coaching practice is called Revolutionize Retirement (www. revolutionizeretirement.com). • Think twice before moving to a place with a strong homeowners’ association. Schreiber and her husband, a software specialist, thought they wanted to live in a new custom-home community surrounding a man-made lake. They bought their “dream house” there and assumed they’d stay there for the rest of their lives. But after just three years they were
so rattled by the strong neighborhood association that they sold the property and moved to a less fancy part of town where they’re now living happily in a modest townhouse with friendly and easygoing neighbors. Looking back on their experience, the couple wishes they’d investigated further before buying into the lakeside community, where Schreiber says neighborhood leaders proved bothersome and intrusive. Though she allows that some people appreciate a strict neighborhood association that can help protect their property values, she says others find life in such a community unpleasant. Schreiber urges those making a major housing transition to ask questions about the internal culture of a community, before they buy a home there, to ensure that it’s in accord with the lifestyle they have in mind. • Carefully consider your children’s role in the next phase of your life. Lots of downsizers approaching retirement have children in their 20s or older. And, according to Conrad, they vary widely on the role they would like their children to play in the next phase of their life. “As they get older, some people become weary of the child-raising thing. Yet other empty nesters feel a void in their lives and wish to see
more of their grown kids,” she says. Those who want their adult offspring to play a major role in their lives are likely to be happier moving to a property with enough bedrooms to accommodate their kids during overnight visits. But those who wish to discourage their children from lengthy stays – or from moving back home – might prefer a small condo-apartment with just one or two bedrooms. • Allow plenty of time for purging before you downsize. It’s rare for homeowners who’ve lived in a property for many years to approach retirement age without a house full of material possessions, says Conrad, who conducts de- cluttering workshops in clients’ homes. The problem is that to successfully sell their property and fit into a smaller place, nearly everyone must cull through their possessions and reduce their overall quantity. This is a process that can take weeks, or even months, to accomplish. “Half the chaos in your home is probably due to clutter. Going through all of it is an achievable goal. But you’ve got to allow plenty of time to do the project incrementally. Otherwise, you’re going to feel overwhelmed,” Conrad says.

5 tips for saving for a down payment on a home NEW YORK (AP) – The first financial challenge when you’re thinking about buying a home is how to come up with the down payment. Traditionally, homebuyers need a down payment between 10 percent and 20 percent of the purchase price. During the housing bubble that figure dropped sharply, even down to zero. These days, it’s rare to get a mortgage without contributing some of your own cash. And if you’re trying to buy a home that was foreclosed or through
a short sale – where the purchase price is below the amount owed on the house – a larger down payment can speed up the process. Here are some tips to save up your down payment. 1. Decide how much house you can afford. The first step is to set your savings goal. Research home prices and determine how much you can afford. Calculators can be found on most bank Web sites and on the FHA site at www.fha.gov.
The median price of existing homes in the U.S. is $165,100, according to the National Association of Realtors. A 5 percent down payment for a home that price would be $8,255. A 20 percent downpayment would be $33,020. 2. Set up a savings plan. You’ll also need to create a savings plan and set a deadline for reaching your goal. One method is to find the difference between your current housing costs and your projected monthly mortgage payment, and put
that much away each month. 3. Pare back expenses and raise cash. Review your spending habits and determine where you can find extra cash. If you’re determined to buy a house as soon as possible, try living like a tightwad. Start by putting away the credit cards. 4. Borrow from your 401(k). Most 401(k) plans allow participants to borrow from their accounts to finance a downpayment. A key drawback is that the money will not be growing
for your retirement, and if you leave or lose your job, you’ll have to pay the entire amount back or face stiff penalties plus taxes. 5. You may qualify for assistance. If you’re hoping to take advantage of the down market but haven’t got that much saved, you may be able to find help through various programs. There are FHA-backed programs in every state. Most are aimed at low- and moderate-income, first-time homebuyers.
