Grant rewards success. 2A

BY DAVID NIVENS ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

GUILFORD COUNTY – School district officials will take a detailed look Tuesday at how Superintendent Mo Green intends to spend a proposed $6 million federal grant to improve Oak Hill Elementary School in High Point. About half of the annual $2 million grant revenue would go to staff bonuses at $424,000 and supplies and materials at $600,000. An estimated $215,000 would go into a parent involvement program for supplies and contracted services. The Guilford County Board of Education will review the grant application during a 6 p.m. Tuesday meeting in the district administrative offices. Oak Hill is one of the eight lowest performing schools in the state. The district goal is to raise the Adequate Yearly Progress score to 50 percent by the 2012-13 school year, partly by offering a longer school day and year. On end-of-grade testing, only 24.9 percent of students

Seventy-five percent of pre-kindergarten to 5th grade teachers have requested transfers for next year. Reform plan: Each of the 52 school staff members surveyed and a majority of surveyed parents and community members preferred the transformation plan over the more drastic restart or closure alternatives.

Anti-incumbency fears don’t materialize greatly in primary BY PAUL B. JOHNSON ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

TRIAD – Heading into Tuesday’s primaries, incumbents braced for setbacks that they hadn’t endured for generations as a supposedly angry electorate would take out their frustrations at the polls. Instead, after the ballots were counted, the vast majority of incumbents across the area and state sailed through to the fall general election. In some cases, where no opposing party candidates filed for office, incumbents who triumphed in the primary virtually assured themselves of another term after Election Day Nov. 2. High-profile incumbents who were challenged in primaries, such as U.S. Rep. Howard Coble, R-6th, and Republican Davidson County Sheriff David Grice, won

contests by wide margins. With one exception, all area state legislators facing primary challengers finished first comfortably. Across the state, all North Carolina congressional representatives and Republican Sen. Richard Burr won by respectable margins. “When you look at the results, it’s obvious that this threat to incumbency was much more rhetorical than it was actually manifested in electoral action,” said Matthew DeSantis, assistant professor of political science at High Point University. The rise of protest groups, such as the conservative Tea Party and the organization Get Out Of Our House!, which aims to dump all incumbents in the U.S. House, led many analysts to contend that more incumbents than normal will lose this year. But DeSantis said early 2010

Economy could influence political outcomes in the fall. 1B

Area state legislative candidates who face no opposition for the fall general election:

primary results in North Carolina, Indiana and Texas don’t reflect that development yet. In Republican primaries in the three states, conservative voters supported the incumbent or GOP establishment candidates, DeSantis said. On Saturday, however, Sen. Bob Bennett, R-Utah, lost his party’s nomination at the GOP convention. Another reflection of the lack of voter outrage against incumbents is low to moderate voter turnouts, such as the 14 percent turnout Tuesday in North Carolina, DeSantis said. The lack of strong opposition candidates in most races also hurt the effort to turn out incumbents, said Sam Moseley, chairman of the political science department at North Carolina A&T State Uni-

HIGH POINT – The city is teaming up with a local nonprofit in an effort to revitalize run-down properties and offer residents the chance to own a home. The City Council is considering entering an agreement with Greensboro-based SHARE of North Carolina Inc. to acquire and rehabilitate approximately 10 foreclosed properties. The city plans to use about $800,000 in federal Neighborhood Stabilization funds on the project, which will involve placing renters or buyers who earn 50 percent or less of the area median income in the properties. “Through education that we, the city, and others provide, hopefully these families will be able to purchase these houses within two years,” said Bill Waller, executive director of SHARE (Self-Help and Rewarded Efforts), which provides counseling, homeowner education and affordable housing to low and moderate-income families. “We’ve put literally hundreds and hundreds of families into their first homes, and never had a foreclosure,” he added. “We put them through such an education process

– how to manage money, secure better employment, clean up their credit and impress upon them the value of being a homeowner.” This and similar projects will address the inventory of foreclosed homes in the city, according to Mike McNair, High Point’s director of community development and housing. “You still have properties that for whatever reason have not been listed, so there’s more out there than we are aware of. Actually, it’s been a bit of a challenge finding them,” McNair said. “When the dust settles, we may have 30 or 40 families impacted, and that’s significant.” SHARE, which has built and renovated dozens of homes in the Macedonia, West End and East Central areas, has identified foreclosed properties for acquisition in three zip codes – 27260, 27262 and 27265. “We’re finding we’re able to buy the houses at only 50 to 60 percent of the tax value because the banks just want to get them off their books,” Waller said. “Hopefully in two years, the economy will be better and real estate prices will be up, so these homebuyers, in our opinion, are going to get incredibly good buys.” pkimbrough@hpe.com | 888-3531

AT A GLANCE

The city’s contract with SHARE of North Carolina Inc. will involve funds from the $2.625 million in Neighborhood Stabilization Program money High Point received. The funding is being used to help with the acquisition and repair of properties in areas of the city with the highest amounts of foreclosed homes. Under the program, homebuyers can receive down payment assistance and funding for repair services. Data compiled by the city in the past indicated about 400 foreclosed properties in High Point, with the most in the 27265 zip code, which encompasses north High Point and many moderate to higher-income neighborhoods. The city is also planning to use NSP funds to acquire properties in the Graves Avenue area that will be conveyed to Habitat for Humanity, which is involved in a redevelopment effort in that area.

Officers to make 250-mile memorial bike ride DURHAM (AP) – Three North Carolina police officers will carry the memory of a co-worker as they make a 250-mile bicycle trip to Washington, D.C., this week. Three Duke University officers will start the Law Enforcement United Memorial Bicycle Ride today and expect to arrive for a ceremony at the Pentagon on Wednesday after-

noon, The Herald-Sun of Durham reported. Mark Faust, David Johnson and Rekayi Isley say they are riding in memory of former Duke and Durham city officer Charles Callemyn, who died in a 2007 traffic accident while rushing to provide backup to a fellow officer. After Callemyn’s death, Faust and other Duke of-

ficers rebuilt the boyhood tree house Callemyn had loved as a child at his Hillsborough home, so his two sons can enjoy it. “He was more than a coworker,” said Faust, 53. “He was a friend. There are people you work with, and then there are people who you work with who are friends as well.” Faust’s 30-year-old son is a Raleigh police officer

Heading into this week’s start of the legislative session, the telecommunications industry backed a proposal that would force cities to get voter approval to borrow money to build or repair their systems. While a majority on the Legislature’s Revenue Laws Study Committee recommended the idea last week to the full General Assembly, it’s still a long shot to pass.

Grant funds would pay for bonuses and programs BY DAVID NIVENS ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

RALEIGH (AP) – Big telecoms in North Carolina keep fretting about towns like Wilson and Salisbury getting into the broadband business. Ever since a 2005 appeals court ruling upheld the right of towns and cities to offer high-speed Internet to their residents, large cable and phone companies have been urging the General Assembly to throw obstacles in the way. Local governments, they argue, don’t have to pay taxes and can subsidize their rates to undercut the corporate competition. “We just want the playing field level between the two of us,” said Jack Stanley, a regional lobbyist for Time Warner Cable. Those efforts, however, have failed as mayors and local governments argue the big companies won’t

Faust said he’s never made such a long bike trip, but he’s been practicing and bought a French-made road bike just for the occasion. “I’ve taken one of our challenge coins and mounted it on my handlebar, so if I get tired, I’ll just look down at it,” he said.

To be eligible for grant funds, the school board earlier approved the transformation intervention improvement model which requires a leadership change while at the same time allowing teachers to apply to keep their jobs. The school holds several challenges for

teachers and leaders. “There is a steady increase of students speaking English as a second language,” according to a grant background report. “More than 17 languages and cultures are represented with the majority of students speaking Spanish.” Also, 97 percent of students receive free meals. Thirty-five percent of students left the school in the 2008-09 academic year, according to earlier reports. dnivens@hpe.com | 888-3626

Woman dies during scuba dive at beach WILMINGTON (AP) – The U.S. Coast Guard says a 50-year-old woman has died while scuba diving off the North Carolina coast. The StarNews of Wilmington reports the woman died Saturday as emergency medical workers and her diving companions tried to resuscitate her.

The Coast Guard would not release the woman’s name. The North Carolina Office of the Chief Medical Examiner and New Hanover County officials had no information about the woman Sunday. Coast Guard spokesmen said the woman was found unconscious in the water about noon Saturday.

Canada’s eager beavers build world’s largest dam TORONTO (AP) – A Canadian-based ecologist said Friday that he has located the world’s largest beaver dam in northwestern Canada using Google satellite technology. Ecologist Jean Thie located the 2,788-foot (850-meter) dam using Google Earth and

NASA technology while researching the rate of melting permafrost in the country’s far north. Situated in northern Alberta’s Wood Buffalo National Park, which straddles the AlbertaNorthwest Territories border, the dam stretches more than eight football

fields long, said Thie. “I couldn’t believe it when I saw it – it’s a vast, vast area. There may be longer dams out there, but this, by far, is the largest I have seen so far. And, it would not have been possible to view it without something like Google Earth,” said Thie.

CHARLOTTE (AP) – Two North Carolina teens who held an early graduation ceremony so their terminally ill mother could see them in their caps and gowns are now struggling to pay her funeral expenses, a newspaper reported Sunday. Tonya Lockhart, 43, died last month after fighting cervical cancer for a year. Now the two children and their two siblings are trying to raise the $8,000 the funeral home is asking for services, The Charlotte Observer reported. Lockhart had hoped to see 18-year-old Brittany and 19-year-old Brandon graduate this year from North Mecklenburg High School. Just a week before her death, the school held an early ceremony in a hospital chapel. Now the teens and their two brothers are trying to find the money to bury their mother after they learned an insurance policy they thought would cover the costs had lapsed. Family friend Mandy Gold set up a fund at Myers Park United Methodist Church to benefit the family. “They just wanted to do the right thing,� Gold said of the kids. “There just wasn’t the means to do so.� For young Brittany Lockhart, her mother’s death and the stress of the funeral expenses are making it difficult for her to fulfill her promise to graduate. “I know she wouldn’t be satisfied if I didn’t graduate,� she said.

And Liam Maher is a self-taught designer who works for Denham the Jeanmaker in Amsterdam. “It may be that we demystified the process of making stuff,� says Niall Maher about his nephew’s jump into fashion. Ionescu traveled to learn shoemaking, first taking a class in Seattle to learn the basics. His uncle living in the Netherlands introduced Ionescu to a cutting-edge shoemaker, Alexander Fielden, whose creations seem a better fit for a museum than a foot. Ionescu spent five weeks in Budapest studying with a master shoemaker who was a stickler for quality craftsmanship. Most recently, he attended a class at Temple University’s School of Podiatric Medicine to better understand how the foot works. Ionescu also noticed that people his age were becoming more active consumers, finding out who made their clothing and how it was made. Ionescu wants his shoes to exemplify the same intersection of design and craft, and as a result be a part of this “active consumerism� movement.

RALEIGH (AP) – Kieran Ionescu’s interest in fashion dates back to the presents his uncles used to send him for Christmas and birthdays. The presents tended to be side projects for the uncles’ friends, such as Diesel jeans and Tshirts and hats by Shankbone. Regardless, the presents were advanced for the fashion scene at Durham’s Riverside High School back when Ionescu was a student, and they left an impression. “That instilled a fascination with garments and fashion,� Ionescu says. A decade later, Ionescu, 26, is designing and making shoes by hand out of his West Durham home. His business is BlackArm Bespoke; “black arm� is a nod to the tattoo that wraps his right forearm from wrist to elbow, and bespoke is an antiquated word for custom made. “I’ve always had jobs that were craft-oriented,� says Ionescu, including carpentry and as a coffee roaster at Durham’s Counter Culture Coffee. In 2008, Ionescu, who has always been fascinated by sneaker culture, decided he wanted to learn shoemaking. He was inspired by his uncles’ most recent fashion efforts.

Others begin to see Obama’s radical takeover Finally, someone outside the Beck, Hannity, Limbaugh universe – Robert Weissburg, political science professor emeritus, University of Illinois-Urbana – is willing to say publicly what many of us have believed for a couple of years. He wrote: “The Obama administration and its congressional collaborators almost resemble a foreign occupying force.” He meant that we are being “ruled” by people with values that contravene the values of our national tradition. That would be obvious to anyone not willfully blind. It’s necessary, unfortunately in our race grievance society, to mention that this has to do with 230 years of our traditional values and not race. Weissberg’s awareness began with Obama’s many troubling pre-presidency associations, including mentors like the known communist Frank M. Davis, the America-hating, anti-Semite Jeremiah Wright, and supported and taught the anti-capitalist community activism of the Marxist Saul Alinsky. Remember when your mother said, “Show me your friends, and I’ll tell you who you are.” Obama proves that adage! The first clues were his early appointments. Weissberg asks what native would ever appoint a militant gay activist, Kevin Jennings, as “safe schools” czar, or a communist and 9/11 Truther as “green jobs” czar or Marxist Mark Lloyd, who praised Hugo Chavez’s “incredible revolution,” as FCC “diversity” czar? There are others. This “post racial” president has spent his presidency using race to divide the nation. He began with the bitter clingers speech, the Gates incident in Massachusetts, and naming the overtly race conscious Eric Holder attorney general. Most recent was his call for blacks and Latinos to join him in November to defeat, I presume, the white Tea Party “menace.” He also used the race card in ripping the new Arizona illegal immigrant law, blatantly lying about provisions of the law. Chavez once said to Castro, “If we’re not careful, we’ll be to the right of Obama” True that! TONY MOSCHETTI High Point

Clues were his early appointments.

to “fellowship.” All people are born anti-Christ, aliens (separated from Christ), until they repent, accept, and receive the new birth (Jesus Christ) as lord and Savior. This country, world and earth belong to God and everyone who is born and lives in it. Technology is like money, it answers all things, the good, bad and the unwanted. It is not money or technology that destroys people. But the “love of money” (power verses people) and “technology” (power verses God) will be the downfall of this world. They both control and rule people’s perception of other people into believing that other people are less than people. JAMES R. RICKS JR. Trinity

OUR MISSION

Living with risk is the cost of freedom W e always seem surprised. Even after Oct. 1, 1910, when a bomb destroyed the Los Angeles Times building and killed 20 men. And Nov. 24, 1917, when 10 people died in the bombing of a police station in Milwaukee. And Sept. 16, 1920, when 38 people lost their lives in a bombing on Wall Street. And May 18, 1927, when 45 people, most of them children, died in a school bombing in Bath Township, Mich. And Sept. 15, 1963, when four little girls died in the bombing of the Sixteenth Street Baptist Church in Birmingham. And Feb. 26, 1993, when a bomb in a basement of the World Trade Center left six people dead. And April 19, 1995 when a truck bomb destroyed a federal building in Oklahoma City, claiming 168 lives. And Sept. 11, 2001, when nearly 3,000 people were killed by hijackers who used captured jetliners as guided missiles. Even after all those episodes and dozens more, we always seem surprised, always persist in believing the unbelievable: terrorism happens in other places,

it doesn’t happen here. No, it’s never said in those words. Rather it is something said “between” the words, something audible OPINION in the indignant tone of the news Leonard anchor, something Pitts seen in the shocked ■■■ eyes of the bystander, something felt in the chambers of one’s own heart where one is surprised – and surprised to be. Because terrorism “doesn’t happen here.” And when it does, it feels as if the universe is playing with marked cards and loaded dice. It feels as if you’ve been cheated somehow by this reminder that we are, indeed, the world – and the world is a dangerous place. But American innocence is a renewable resource. So the events of the last week, the close call wherein a would-be terrorist left a crude car bomb in Times Square that luckily, blessedly, failed to explode, will eventually recede, leaving room for a new round of shocked in-

dignation next time the reminder comes. Meantime, we shake our heads at the closeness of the call, lionize the vigilant street vendors and the fast-acting cop who averted disaster, and begin trying to figure out how the system failed us. That it did, we have no doubt. That someone blew it is an article of faith. Already, there are questions about how suspect Faisal Shahzad managed to board a plane and almost leave the country after the near bombing despite having been placed on the no-fly list. Obviously, we must do everything practical and possible to thwart terrorists and protect lives. But the bitter fact is that, though we succeed a hundred times, eventually we will fail. This is the thing no one says as they go about “fixing” what went wrong. The idea seems to be that if we can just perfect the system, we guarantee nothing bad will ever happen again. This was the subtext of all those people lauding President Bush because he “kept us safe” after Sept. 11. It was an unbearably naive assertion, born of a stubborn refusal to learn what the rest of

YOUR COMMUNITY. YOUR NEWSPAPER.

the world already knows. Which is that senseless violence is not an aberration of life but a part of it. So no matter how you tweak the system, we will always be vulnerable. Indeed, more so because we are free. And no system consistent with that freedom could have stopped a fanatic from driving a bomb into Times Square. Note that even the questions being raised now concern what happened “after” Shahzad allegedly placed his bomb. There’s a saying: I’d rather be lucky than good. Last week, we were both. But at some point, we will be neither. So what can you do? The answer is that you do the best you can, take what precautions you can, and then you get on with it, learn to live with the risk freedom entails. You accept that risk because freedom is worth it. And because living in fear is a contradiction in terms. LEONARD PITTS JR., winner of the 2004 Pulitzer Prize for commentary, is a columnist for the Miami Herald.

US praises peace effort of Israel, Palestinians

12 dead after 2 blasts hit mine Sunday’s second explosion destroys main air shaft of Russia’s largest coal structure MOSCOW (AP) – Rescue workers scrambled to save 83 people trapped in Russia’s largest underground coal mine after two explosions killed at least 12 people and injured dozens more, officials said. Among those still trapped early today were rescue workers who had entered the Siberian mine after the first blast. A high level of methane gas after Sunday’s second, more powerful blast raised fears of further explosions and prevented more rescuers from going into the mine for the rest of the day. Only early today was the first rescue team sent down to try to bring out five miners whose location had

been established, said Valery Korchagin, a spokesman for the Emergency Ministry. It was not clear, however, whether the miners were still alive, he said. The second explosion destroyed the main air shaft and all of the mine’s above-ground structures, the governor of the Siberian region of Kemerovo told Prime Minister Vladimir Putin during a meeting with emergency officials, according to a government transcript. More than 500 emergency workers from around the country struggled throughout the day to ventilate the mine and rebuild mine shafts so the search for those trapped could resume, Korchagin

Magnitude 7.4 quake rattles western Indonesia JAKARTA, Indonesia – An earthquake with a preliminary magnitude of 7.4 rattled Indonesia’s North Sumatra province Sunday, prompting a brief local tsunami watch, knocking out power and damaging some homes, officials said. The U.S. Geological Survey said the afternoon quake hit 135 miles southeast of Banda Aceh at a depth at 38 miles. Indonesia and the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center in Honolulu issued a tsunami watch for the area, but both canceled their warnings.

Partial Iraqi election tallies sent for approval BAGHDAD – Iraq’s election commission announced Sunday it will send all results of the March vote to the Supreme Court for final ratification except for those from Baghdad, where a recount is under way. Patience has been wearing thin over the delay in announcing final results more than two months after the close March 7 parliamentary election. “The court sent a message to the commission about the possibility of ratifying results and the decision of the commission is to send all election results except Baghdad,� said Qassim al-Abboudi, the election spokesman.

Mexico extradites ex-governor to US MEXICO CITY – Mexico has extradited a former state governor to the United States to face charges of helping smuggle cocaine through Cancun to the U.S., in a high-profile demonstration of the nation’s increased willingness to extradite suspects as it battles surging drug violence. Mario Villanueva, governor of the Caribbean state of Quintana Roo from 1993 to 1999, was in U.S. custody on Sunday, a day after authorities handed him over.

Iceland’s volcano ash shuts European airports GENEVA – Airlines canceled hundreds of flights across Europe and added hours to trans-Atlantic journeys Sunday as planes were diverted around a large plume of ash spewed by an Icelandic volcano and stretching from Greenland to Portugal. The weekend cancellations have been a fraction of the flights nixed two weeks ago when jittery air traffic authorities closed down much of the continent’s airspace. Ireland’s five westernmost airports closed Sunday.

said by telephone from Kemerovo, about 2,000 miles (3,000 kilometers) east of Moscow. By late Sunday, it was still too dangerous to enter the mine because of high levels of methane gas, said Emergency Minister Sergei Shoigu, who flew to the scene from Moscow to take charge of the operation. “Now we have to do everything possible to avoid a third explosion,� the state news agency RIA Novosti quoted him as telling miners’ families. Shoigu said emergency workers had identified two areas where those trapped were most likely to be and promised to send in rescuers as soon as possible.

Liberal Democrats leader: ‘Mountain to climb’ for UK parties to reach deal LONDON (AP) – The two parties that could form Britain’s next government held hours of closed-door talks Sunday without reaching a power-sharing deal, and there are fears that the political uncertainty could stoke market jitters when trading reopens today. Conservatives and Liberal Democrats have a “mountain to climb� on issues including electoral reform, a senior member of the Liberal Democrats said. The Liberal Democrats want Britain to shed a system that gave them just 9 percent of the seats in Parliament after they won 23 percent of the popular vote, but if Conservatives give in it could leave them at the

Continental jet makes emergency landing TRENTON, N.J. – A hydraulic problem forced a Tokyo-bound Continental Airlines plane to make an emergency landing at New Jersey’s Newark Liberty International Airport.

Houston-based Continental Airlines Inc. says 291 people were on board. No injuries were reported.

Teen charged in NJ carnival shooting NEWARK, N.J. – Essex County prosecutors say a 17-year-old East Orange boy was the gunman who opened fire at a crowded carnival in northern New Jersey this weekend.

He will likely face aggravated assault and weapons charges. Katherine Carter, a prosecutor’s office spokeswoman, would not comment on a motive.

WASHINGTON (AP) – Saying they obtained new evidence, senior White House officials said Sunday the Pakistani Taliban were behind the failed Times Square bombing. The attempt marks the first time the group has been able to launch an attack on U.S. soil. And while U.S. officials have downplayed the threat – citing the bomb’s lack of sophistication – the incident in Times Square and the Christmas Day airline bomber indicate growing strength by overseas terrorist groups linked to al-Qaida even as the CIA says their operations are seriously degraded.

President Obama: Education a responsibility of all Americans HAMPTON, Va.

Obama told the nearly 1,100 graduates assembled in the university’s

Armstrong Stadium that they have the added responsibility of being role models and mentors in their communities. Clad in a blue gown, Obama recalled the university’s humble beginning in September 1861 as a school for escaped slaves who sought asylum after fleeing nearby plantations. Obama said the founders recognized that, with the right education, such barriers as inequality would not persist for long.

Concerning the Pakistani Taliban, Attorney General Eric Holder said: “We know that they helped facilitate it; we know that they helped direct it. And I suspect that we are going to come up with evidence which shows that they helped to finance it.

City to help improve High Rock BY PAT KIMBROUGH ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – The city will partner with several other local governments in an effort to improve water quality in one of the region’s lakes. The City Council this week approved a memorandum of understanding with Davidson County, the cities of Lexington and Thomasville and the towns of Midway and Wallburg to improve conditions in their common watershed areas that discharge into High Rock Lake.

HIGH POINT – The newest building on the Guilford Technical Community College campus could become the second college building to earn an energy design award. GTCC’s first “green” building in Greensboro is an eye-catcher in the complex of four buildings. A green building is a structure built to be environmentally responsible and resource-efficient. The $7.7 million, 45,436-square-

foot general education center is the first building on the college campuses recognized as a Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design Silver Certification. The “round” structure is among the most unusual on any of the college’s four campuses. College leaders have the same hope for a new $8 million, threestory classroom building under construction on the High Point campus. The new building, expected to be completed later this year, also will have four new computer labs,

biology and physics labs, office space and more student space. “It has been our experience in Greensboro that it is at least a year after a building is finished that it is determined if it qualifies,” said Charles Young, GTCC construction coordinator. GTCC plans to build all buildings on the new northwest campus near Piedmont Triad International Airport to meet platinum certification – the highest LEED level, Young said. Renovation projects on the Jamestown campus also will feature LEED improvements.

Economic recovery may influence fall election BY PAUL B. JOHNSON ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

TRIAD – An improving job market through the fall could help incumbents of both major parties hold on to their elected offices after the Nov. 2 general election, a local political analyst said. Job creation has improved significantly during the past two months in the wake of the recession. The U.S. Labor Department reported Friday that job creation last month by American employers grew at the fastest pace in four years. Employers added 290,000 jobs in April, and revised

Anti-incumbent mood fails to make a difference during primaries. 1A figures for February and March show 121,000 more jobs were added than previously thought during those two months, the Labor Department reports. Despite the improvement this spring, the U.S. unemployment rate stood at 9.9 percent in April, reflecting the loss of more than 8 million jobs during the recession and the impact of more people reentering the labor market

tinues to expand through the fall, it will help Democratic and Republican incumbents by tamping down the level of anger and discontent within the electorate, said Matthew DeSantis, assistant professor of political science with High Point University. “Incumbents of both parties can say, ‘Look at what we’re doing – what I’ve done is working, things are getting better.’ They’ll argue that things aren’t great, but they are better Samuel Mosely than they were two years N.C.

nized into political entities that are herding voters to the polls on election days, said Samuel Moseley, chairman of the political science department at North Carolina A&T State University. “Incumbents are bringing their people to the polls. These individuals in opposition are able to come together for rallies, but are they in a position to convert that into electoral strength by getting people registered to vote, making the calls on Election Day? I haven’t seen those results,” Moseley said. pjohnson@hpe.com | 888-3528

Pugh Funeral Home is serving the family.

Col. James Leon Draper, Jr. COLEBROOK, Conn. – Colonel James Leon Draper, Jr., 93, passed away peacefully at home on May 4th, 2010. He was born June 22, 1916 in New Haven, the son of James and Marion (Coyne) Draper. His wife, Shirley (Abeling) Draper, preceded Jim in 2000. He grew up in Morris Cove, attended New Haven public schools and graduated from the University of Connecticut in 1941, where he served in the ROTC and met his future wife, Shirley. Following graduation, Jim served his country in the U.S. Army as an Infantry Training Officer during World War II, including service under Gen. Stilwell in Burma and as a U.S. Advisor in the Korean War. Experiences in both wars involved prolonged combat and intelligence leadership positions under harsh jungle and mountain conditions. In the northern Burma theatre in the summer of 1944, Jim’s Unit joined Merrill’s Marauders to win important control of the Myitkina airfield, eventually pushing on to help facilitate the opening of the Lido and Burma Roads. In the Korean War, he was the first American to cross the 38th parallel into North Korea, as an advisor with the South Korean Capital Division. After the Korean War, Jim also served in Germany as Executive Commander of the Baumholder Army Base, then in Army Intelligence at the Pentagon and later at the Army Security Agency. Jim was a graduate of the Infantry School, The Command and General Staff College, the Strategic Intelligence School, The National Security Agency and the US Army War College. His military service recognition included the following: Legion of Merit; Bronze Star Medal with 1 Oak Leaf Cluster; Army Commendation Medal with Metal Pendant; National Defense Service Medal; Special Breast Order Yun Hui with Ribbon from the Republic of China; Korea Service Medal; Armed Forces Reserve Medal; United Nations Service Medal; Combat Infantry Badge 2nd award; AGS Certificate; Republic of Korea Presidential Citation; The Republic of Korea’s highest awards for Valor and Bravery, the Chung Mu Distinguished Service Medal 3rd Class and the Wharang Distinguished Service Medal 4th Class. On leaving the Army in 1965, his retirement citation read: “Colonel Draper’s keen perception, ingenuity and extensive military knowledge consistently led to the timely and efficient completion of the intelligence tasks of paramount importance to National security. When he returned to ci-

vilian life, Jim developed successful careers in insurance and real estate. He also formed a partnership which grew to own and operate 23 FM radio stations across the country. Jim and Shirley retired from civilian life in 1976, moving from Fairfax, VA to their summer home on Highland Lake in Winsted, CT, eventually settling in Colebrook, where they were active in many local organizations. Jim was a member of the Winsted Rotary Club and along with Shirley, was honored with the highest honor in Rotary, the Paul Harris Fellowship Award. Jim also served as a Director and Finance chairman of the Winsted Memorial Hospital. Jim and Shirley have been benefactors of many community and educational programs, including the Northwest Connecticut Community College and the University of Connecticut, where they first met. Northwest Connecticut Community College recognized their generosity by naming their conference center the “Shirley A. Draper Conference Center�. Having previously endowed the Draper Chair in Early American History at UConn, the university recently honored Jim and Shirley by naming Lecture Hall 108 in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences the “James L. and Shirley A. Draper Lecture Hall�. To friends and family, Jim and Shirley’s true legacy is their humility and gracious friendship. They started, as many Connecticut natives who sacrificed their early years together to two wars; he in battle and she on the home front, sometimes not knowing for a year at a time if Jim was alive, and if they would be reunited. Both spent their last years as active community members, continuing to live the philosophy that love is service. Jim is survived by his brother, Robert Draper of High Point, North Carolina; his nephew Father Andrew Draper, TOR, of Mocksville, North Carolina; nephew, David Draper and wife Jean of Mechanicsville, Virginia; greatnephew, Robert A. Draper III; great-niece Whitley Draper; brother-in-law, Donald Florian and dear friends, Susan and Mark Caufield. Burial will be Thursday, May 13th at 10:15 AM at Forest View Cemetery in Winsted with military honors. A Memorial Service will follow at 11:00 AM at the Colebrook Congregational Church in Colebrook with the Rev. Alice Murphy and Father Andrew Draper officiating. Gifts may be made in lieu of flowers to the Winsted Rotary Club, P.O. Box 475, Winsted, CT 06098. To leave an online condolence, please visit www. maloneyfuneral.com.

Graduation makes Mother’s Day special MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

Cherise Velez-Gibson got to start her Mother’s Day celebration a day early. Yesterday, Velez-Gibson walked across the stage at Lawrence Joel Coliseum as a newly minted graduate of Winston-Salem State University. In the stands were her three kids, as well as her mother, Marysue Antonucci. The day had special meaning to Velez-Gibson as she reflected on the struggles it took to get through college while trying to be a mother and working to provide for her family. “We made it, all of us made it,� she said after her graduation. “I’m so

happy. All of us made it together.� Five years ago, she and her family lost everything after her husband was injured in a motorcycle wreck that put him out of work, she said. She decided then that she needed to get more education. She started first at Forsyth Technical and Community College, and finished up with a bachelor’s degree in rehabilitation studies at WSSU. She now plans to get a master’s degree in rehabilitation counseling at North Carolina A&T University in Greensboro. “What could be better for a mother than to celebrate the day before with a graduation from college?� he said.

MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

John Kelly Wall, who served as Mecklenburg sheriff from 1979 to 1983, died Saturday after a long battle with cancer, according to his son-inlaw. He was 87. Wall, who was born in Mount Airy, served in the Army Air Corps and later joined the Mecklenburg County Police Department, eventually becoming a captain. During his 25 years with the department, he helped develop the safety patrol for Charlotte schools

and began requiring that county police officers use Breathalyzers to identify drunken drivers. As sheriff, Wall’s four years in office were plagued by controversy at the jail. In 1981, he came under fire for what the Observer termed a “trouble-plagued operation� at a jail where 30 percent of inmates were misidentified and two escaped. At least two people publicly claimed to have been beaten at the jail during that time. Wall, a Democrat who ran unsuccessfully for sheriff in 1974, lost in 1982 to C.W. Kidd.

Virtual market makes fresh food deliveries MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

It’s nearly noon, and Matthew Tuttle pulls up to the Mayodan home of Tabitha Southard and unloads boxes of what could be ingredients for an indulgent restaurant brunch: sugared toasted pecans, cage free eggs, arugula, feta cheese, Carolina Ruby sweet potatoes, and French breakfast radishes. “Those are delicious,� Tuttle says of the radishes after spreading the fare across Southard’s coffee table. Southard’s nine-member buying club ordered the food online on a Wednesday, and farmers from Browns Summit to Pelham harvested most of it that evening. Rockingham County leaders and area farmers worked for more than a year to make the delivery possible Thursday. “A lot of people just don’t have the time to go to the farmers market to buy local food, and that’s pretty much the only way to do that now,� said Tuttle, a Stoneville farmer who manages and delivers part-time for Piedmont Local Food. Piedmont Local Food is the name of the virtual market launched in March by the nonprofit Rocking-

ham Local Food Coalition. The venture, funded by roughly $100,000 in grants and local government funds, enables chefs, business owners and individuals to buy everything from grass-fed beef to squash blossoms from 32 farms in Rockingham and five surrounding counties over the Internet. “When I mention squash blossoms to our chefs, their eyes light up because they can’t get them anywhere,� Tuttle said. Farmers drop off the orders in Reidsville and Walnut Cove on Thursdays, and Tuttle delivers the food to buyers. Customers have purchased about $1,300 worth of food over the past six weeks, and organizers hope the market can operate without outside support within three years. “I was just like most of the farmers expecting to up and sell at once everything I produce,� said Stesha Warren, who operates the 4-acre Seed Sowers Heirlooms in Madison with her husband, Jeremy. “But that’s not reality. It’s been a slow start, to be honest with you.� Tuttle expects booming sales once the growing season progresses, and more people find out about the market. “It’s going to get really crazy,� Tuttle said.

“My whole life has been dedicated to public service,� Wall told the Observer in 1986 during an unsuccessful race for county commissioner. “I have never wanted to be a millionaire.� Wall is survived by his wife of 66 years, Velma, and their daughter, Bonnie Lee Greenberg, and son-in-law Daryl Greenberg, of Charlotte, and a host of grandchildren and great-grandchildren. A memorial service will be held at Pritchard Memorial Baptist Church at 2 p.m. Tuesday.

A bullet in Baghdad, a son’s need, a mother’s love M

AP

Malerie Briseno, 22, talks to her brother, Joseph Briseno Jr., 27, as their mother Eva Briseno watches at their home in Manassas, Va. she has known since grade school in their homeland, the Philippines. A lesser woman would cringe at the wound care and bodily indignities that Eva has learned to manage for her son, Joseph says. “I can’t walk away from this. She can’t. I’m very proud of my wife,” he said. What keeps Eva going is hope that stem cells or some future treatment advance will help her son. “I do believe in miracles,” she says. Yet desperation clouds her prayers. “Most of the time I ask God if I can take Jay’s place,” she confesses, unable to suppress a sob. Hearing his mother, Jay cries too, the tears silently slipping from his blind eyes. For Eva, the tears began the day Jay shipped out, on his

20th birthday in 2003. He was a student at George Mason University, hoping to become a forensic scientist. He had joined the Army Reserves and

ear Abby: This is the time of year we think not only about our mothers, but all the women who have helped to shape our lives. But as they focus on work, family and home, many of them tend to neglect themselves and their health. That’s why the U.S. Food and Drug Administration Office of Women’s Health and the Federal Citizen Information Center would like to help women to take time to care for themselves by offering them our free Health Information Kit. With topics like managing medicines, avoiding health scams, practicing food safety and, of course, taking care of the entire family, the advice and tips in this kit are a source of wisdom for women to use and share with one another. Abby, thank you for letting your readers know about our free Health Information Kits and for reminding women that as they’re caring for others, they need to take care of themselves. – Marsha Henderson, Assistant Commissioner For Women’s Health (Acting), FDA Dear Marsha: I’m pleased to spread the word. The fact sheet on food safety you’re offering is particularly important, given that many people have gotten food poisoning and mistaken it for the flu. Your fact sheet on antibiotic resistance is also useful

because overuse of antibiotics in this country has made it increasingly difficult to ADVICE treat some serious Dear medical Abby problems. ■■■ And readers, did you know that we all can play an important public health role by reporting any adverse reactions and unexpected side effects after using a medical product? A guide to reporting problems to the FDA is included in this packet of information for women – and more. So place your orders today. Quantities are limited, so do it now by going online to pueblo.gsa.gov or send your name and address to Health Information Kit, Pueblo, CO 81009. By phone, call (888) 8-PUEBLO (that’s (888) 878- 3256), weekdays 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Eastern time, and ask for the Health Information Kit. And remember, it will be sent at no cost to you. Dear Abby: I recently took my daughter to an “open house” at our local college. My daughter refuses to ask questions, so I started asking about credit hours, finances, scholarships, etc. A few people were not happy that I was there. I was told that I was what they referred to as a “hovering” parent and I needed to let her attend the open house on her

own. I told them – very politely – that because I was paying for her education, I wanted to know what I was getting for my money. I told them if I was going to buy her a car, I feel I’d have the right to test drive it first to make sure it was worth the money. Should I have left her there on her own and hoped everything turned out OK? I know kids need to grow up and make their own mistakes, but if they do it with my money, they won’t learn because it would cost them nothing. Do you think I was out of line? – Questioning Dad in Arizona Dear Dad: I don’t think so. It’s not unusual for parents to take their sons and daughters to look at prospective colleges – and the questions adults would ask might not be the same ones their teen might think of. However, if the individuals who suggested that you were “hovering” were employees of the college, it’s possible you did go overboard, and it’s time to begin encouraging your daughter to be less of a shrinking violet. Being so shy that she’s unable to ask questions is a handicap in a competitive academic setting.

Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

relations. A few months later, the call came. One of those civilians had shot Jay in the back of the head at point-blank range. His spinal cord was shattered, and cardiac arrests led to brain damage that left him unable to see or to speak more than an occasional word. His parents quit their jobs and drained their savings to take care of him after he came home from hospitals and rehabilitation centers. His younger sisters, Malerie and Sherilyn, help when they can, and Joseph does a big share. But much of the care falls to Eva, a small, doe-eyed woman who weighs 100 pounds to Jay’s 147. At first, she took care of Jay in the basement, using a hoist that some charities provided to lift him into a wheelchair and

the shower. But descending those stairs became a descent into hell. After a while, Eva could no longer bear caring for him in that cavelike setting. So they moved Jay upstairs, surrounding him with white walls, bright flowers and Washington Redskins gear so he will have cheerful things to look at in case he has glimmers of vision the doctors can’t detect. Eva fills his days by reading him news stories, telling him how good he looks and how nicely he is dressed, and playing the “young people music” he likes on the radio. He grins when the Redskins win, or when Linkin Park, Eminem, Jay-Z or Beyonce are on. Others get a grimace. “He doesn’t like Mariah Carey or Kelly Clarkson,” Eva laughs.

ANASSAS PARK, Va. (AP) – There are mothers who spent Sunday missing sons and daughters fighting overseas. There are women who have lost children in those wars. And then there is Eva Briseno. Joseph Briseno Jr., Eva’s 27year-old son, is one of the most severely wounded soldiers ever to survive. A bullet to the back of his head in a Baghdad marketplace in 2003 left him paralyzed, brain-damaged and blind, but awake and aware of his condition. Eva takes care of “Jay” in her suburban Virginia home where the family room has been transformed into an intensive care unit, with the breathing machine and tubes he needs to stay alive. Try to imagine this life. Each day starts with two hours of bowel care, an ordeal as awful as it sounds. She labors over his body, brushing his teeth, suctioning fluid from his lungs, exercising his limp arms and legs, and turning him every other hour to prevent bedsores. She sleeps a few hours at a time, when the schedule says it is her turn, often slumped in exhaustion by his side. She has been out to dinner with her husband, Joseph Sr., once in seven years. She could have a better life if she put Jay in a nursing home. Or if she went back to using the home health care nurses the government provided. But one looked indifferently without wiping Jay’s mouth when he drooled. Others fell asleep on the night shift, inattentive while Jay suffered seizures. It’s hard for a mother to watch such lapses. The nurses don’t love Jay. His parents do. So they have chosen to care for him on their own, and you will not find them feeling sorry for themselves – only for him. A lesser man would leave, Eva says of her spouse, whom

know. A test was done to see how successful smoke detectors are in waking children. The results were startling, to say the least. After four children, age 3-12, were asleep, smoke detector alarms were activated, and after three full minutes of a blaring alarm, none of the children FIREHOUSE woke up. Three of CHAT the four didn’t Lee even Knight move. ■■■In another test, the parent actually removed the smoke detector from the ceiling and held it directly over the child’s head and got no reaction. That’s scary, considering the fact that survivability starts decreasing rapidly after the first two minutes. Further research showed this is very prevalent in young people age 15 and younger. I’m no expert on sleep patterns of children, and like most parents, I imagined a smoke detector would wake kids quickly. Apparently this isn’t what happens, and parents should adjust home escape plans to make sure kids are awake in the event of a fire. Parents can even perform their own test to see how their kids react when sleeping. Periodically activate smoke detectors so everyone can hear the sound and associate that sound with a fire. There also seems to be some success with smoke detectors that have a recorded voice of a parent mounted near the bed, instead of the typical blaring tone of most smoke detectors. In the above test, all kids were awake within 30 seconds with this type of system. It will take more research to see if this is a better alternative. I should say that I am in no way against smoke detectors. Since the early 1970s, fire deaths in homes have been cut in half. Today approximately half of fire deaths occur in the five percent of homes without smoke detectors. Smoke detectors save lives. As parents, we cannot take for granted that our kids will jump out of bed at the sound of a smoke alarm. We should have a plan in place and practice that plan to give everyone in our home the best chance possible to escape. 24/7/365: You call; we respond.

ear Dr. Donohue: My baby is 1 year and 1 week old. About two weeks ago, he refused to eat and felt hot. I took him to the doctor, and the doctor said he had roseola. He predicted that the baby would break out in a rash. The doctor was right. Two days later, he broke out in a rash that covered most of his body. Everything seemed to get better once the rash appeared. What has me on edge is the doctor saying it was a herpes infection. The only herpes infection I know is a sexual infection. This can’t be the same thing my boy had, can it? – L.H.

BLONDIE

B.C.

Roseola is not a sexually transmitted disease, but it is a herpes infection. There are eight herpes viruses, and each one causes a different illness. Herpes-1 is the virus that causes cold sores (fever blisters is another name). Herpes-2 is the sexually transmitted illness. Herpes-6 is the virus that caused your son’s illness, roseola, a common childhood infection. Roseola starts out suddenly with a sharp temperature spike. It can reach 104 F (40 C). At the same time, the child becomes irritable and stops eating. The fever lasts around four days and then disappears as quickly as it came. Once the fever goes, the child breaks out in

a red rash that starts on the neck and trunk, and eventually spreads to the face, HEALTH arms and legs. It Dr. Paul looks like Donohue measles. ■■■ The rash makes the child look sick, but he actually is feeling quite well. It goes away in one or two days. Your son should suffer no consequences from this illness. It strikes children mostly between the ages of 7 months and 13 months. Forget the herpes reference. It adds no useful information; it only confuses. Dear Dr. Donohue: How does a person know if his blood pressure is high? What are the symptoms he has? I have never seen a doctor except when I was in the Army. That was 30 years ago. I am 52 now, and I got to thinking that I should know what my blood pressure is. – F.L. For most people, high blood pressure (hypertension) is symptomless. They have no inkling they have it. It makes itself known when people have a heart attack or stroke. It’s during the silent period that it does its damage. That’s the time when you want it

detected so that its consequences are prevented. Somehow, it has become ingrained in popular lore that high blood pressure causes headaches. It doesn’t usually do so. Only if the pressure is very high does it bring on a headache, and then the headache is felt in the back of the head and frequently in the early-morning hours. Obesity, a diet with too much salt (the typical American diet), excessive use of alcohol and a family history of high blood pressure are some of the risks for developing it. For unexplained reasons, high blood pressure is more common in blacks than in any other ethnic group. The only way you’ll learn your blood pressure is to have a nurse or doctor take it. Fifty-two isn’t old age, but it is a time when undesirable things start happening to the body, a blood pressure rise being one of them. Dear Dr. Donohue: I have instructed my granddaughters to push back the skin around their fingernails so they don’t get hangnails. My daughter-in-law says this is nonsense. I’ve done this all my life, and I have had very few hangnails. – D.K. The narrow band of skin surrounding the nail is the cuticle. Pushing it back doesn’t prevent hangnails. It’s a belief held by many people.

he checkered flag is in sight for “Red Dirt Rising,” a locally filmed movie about the pioneers of auto racing. “I’m just tickled to death that we can finally see the finish line on this thing,” says Gary Lewallen, one of the movie’s executive producers, whose father Jimmie is one of the racing pioneers featured in the movie. The movie will make its official world premiere Saturday during an all-day, checkeredcarpet event at historic North Wilkesboro Speedway, with the movie itself being screened at dusk on the track. “I’m so happy this project is culminating at a historical venue like the North Wilkesboro Speedway, a place where my daddy raced at in the early days before NASCAR,” says Lewallen, of Archdale. “We’re helping them reopen that track.” The movie, which was filmed in and around the ArchdaleTrinity area, is based on the book “Red Dirt Tracks: The Forgotten Heroes of Early Stockcar Racing,” by Archdale author Gail Cauble Gurley. It tells the story of such racing pioneers as Jimmie Lewallen, Bill Blair and Curtis Turner, and stars High Pointer Brad Yoder, as well as High Point native Austin Carty and Winston-Salem native Burgess Jenkins. Actors and actresses who appear in the movie will be on hand at Saturday’s premiere to help promote the film. In addition to the screening of the movie, Saturday’s event will feature other events throughout the day, including: • Races featuring drivers from the Legendary Flathead Ford Racing Association and the

The North Carolina Checker Association will hold its 120th State Open Checker Tournament on Friday and Saturday, from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., at the Days Inn in Siler City.

There will be players from North Carolina, Virginia, Tennessee, Kentucky, Alabama, Ohio and Texas, with the highest finishing North Carolina player being crowned the state champion.

North’s leap to four spades promised little high-card strength but good shape. Hence West chose a trump lead: the deuce in case East had a singleton honor.’’ Dummy’s four won. “A super ‘wish trick,’ ’’ South remarked. (A “wish trick” consists of a deuce, three, four and ace.) South may have wished for 11 more tricks but didn’t wish hard enough. He led a club to his ace, took the ace of hearts, ruffed a heart, ruffed a club, ruffed a heart and ruffed a club. South next led the ace and a low diamond, but West took the king and led another trump. South won and crossruffed for two more tricks, but West won the 13th trick with a trump.

BEST CHANCE South’s best chance lies with a crossruff, but he must not let West get in to lead a second trump. At Trick Two South leads the queen of hearts and ducks East’s king, transferring his diamond loser to hearts. South can win East’s diamond return and pitch dummy’s last diamond on the ace of hearts. Then a crossruff produces 12 tricks.

The opening rocketed past the original

and landed the record as the fifth-biggest opening weekend. “Iron Man 2” has taken in $194 million overseas since it debuted in many international markets last week, bringing its worldwide total to over $327 million. “A Nightmare on Elm Street” fell to No. 2 with $9.1 million, clawing to a total of $48.5 million.

Prep golf titles up for grabs W

estchester Country Day School’s golf team enjoyed a spring break getaway to Talamore Golf Club in Pinehurst. The Wildcats hope to enjoy their return visit even more this week in the N.C. Independent Schools Athletic Association 2A championship. “What you do all year comes down to two days in May,” Westchester coach Adam Schwartz said. “I’ve tried to make our schedule really hard, I’ve tried to make practices really hard to where they’re competing to play all the time. These guys have been practicing really, really hard for this.” They even got in those two days of work in March with an eye toward the two-round championship today and Tuesday. “We loved it – it is a great championship course,” Schwartz said. “It allows you to be a little aggressive. There are a lot of birdies if you hit the ball in the fairway. You just can’t make bad decisions.” For all the quality golfers to have come through Westchester, the team never has won a state championship. Last season, the Wildcats placed fourth. This year’s squad boasts returning all-state performers Will and Jonathan DiIanni. Will DiIanni leads a senior group that includes Andrew Bauer and Austin Greeson. Logan Icenhour is the lone junior on the squad, with Jonathan DiIanni and Grey York the talented sophomores. Seventhgrader Thomas Walsh also gets to make his debut in the NCISAA state tournament. Six of the seven Wildcats will play, with four scores counting in the team race. Greeson likely will sit today and sub in Tuesday, Schwartz said. Defending 2A champ Arendell Parrott Academy and defending 1A champ Kerr-Vance Academy figure to be the Wildcats’ top challengers. “I think we’re playing our best golf right now and everybody is really excited,” Schwartz said. “We’re confident, but the bottom line is we’ve got to play our best golf. If we play our best, we’ve got a shot to win.” Also in the NCISAA ranks, the 3A championship will take place at Bryan Park’s Champions course. Wesleyan Christian Academy’s Davis Womble is expected to contend for individual medalist honors.

MCADAMS’ SWANSONG The 25th annual N.C. High School Athletic Association

2A championship takes place at Keith Hills Country Club in Buies Creek. Trinity coach Ed McAdams saw his team SPORTS play well in last week’s regional Steve and is hoping Hanf for the best in ■■■ his final event. McAdams is retiring from teaching this year and also leaving after seven years of coaching the team. “I’d like to go out with a boom, but I’ll take whatever they give me,” McAdams said. “It’s been fun. I hope the boys have enjoyed it as much as I have.” Trinity has done it this season with four main scorers. Sophomore Greg Mauldin qualified for the state tournament last year and is joined by fellow sophomore Dillon Shoe and seniors Andrew Kersey and Christian Steffen to form the core of this year’s team. Senior Zack Walker and freshman Tyler Hyde also will play for the Bulldogs. Carrboro and North Johnston were Trinity’s top foes at the regional, while defending 2A champ North Lincoln and defending 1A winner Topsail figure to be key players today and Tuesday.

AROUND THE REGION The 13th annual 1A championship, at Longleaf Golf and Country Club in Southern Pines, features Bishop McGuinness. Carrying the Villains’ hopes this spring will be Stanhope Johnson, William Whitacre, Mark Sowinski, Brian Sowinski, Daniel Barrett, John Ruggiero and Corey Mack. Johnson, Whitacre and Mark Sowinski each played in last year’s state finale, where Bishop placed second – 14 shots off Topsail’s pace. The 25th annual 3A championship will be held at Foxfire Golf and Country Club in Foxfire Village, where Ledford figures to be in the mix once again. The Panthers played well in last week’s regional and will be out to challenge favorites Hickory and Fike. Hitting the course for Ledford will be Nathan Parks, Will Essick, Aaron Abts, Chad Miller, Cam Weis and Taylor Ray. The 74th annual 4A championship includes individual qualifiers Davis Hoke of Southwest Guilford and Christian Hawley of Glenn at Pinehurst No. 8. shanf@hpe.com | 888-3526

Darlington domination Denny Hamlin celebrates after winning the NASCAR Sprint Cup Southern 500 at Darlington Raceway in Darlington, S.C., late Saturday night. Hamlin swept the weekend at Darlington, having taken the Nationwide Series race on Friday. See Greer Smith’s column on 3D.

Braden earns perfect ‘A’ OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) – Dallas Braden pitched the 19th perfect game in major league history, shutting down the majors’ hottest team and leading the Oakland Athletics to a 4-0 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays on Sunday. Braden threw his arms in the air after Gabe Kapler grounded out to shortstop for the final out. The closest the Rays got to a hit was Jason Bartlett’s liner to third leading off the game. Evan Longoria tried to bunt against Braden leading off the fifth, drawing boos from the small crowd. “It’s without a doubt a team effort,” Braden said. “You got eight guys out there chasing balls and knocking balls down for me. So this is ours, not just mine, this is ours.” It was the majors’ first perfect game since Mark Buehrle did it for the White Sox against the Rays on July 23, and the second no-hitter this season after Colorado’s Ubaldo Jimenez pulled it off in Atlanta on April 17. Braden pitched the A’s first perfect game since Hall of Famer Jim “Catfish” Hunter’s gem on May 8, 1968, against the Minnesota

Twins. Only 6,298 were there to witness it. Sunday’s crowd at the Coliseum wasn’t much better: 12,228. Braden (4-2) wasn’t fazed by anything, Braden throwing two-strike changeups and getting quick outs against a Rays team that lost on the road for just the third time this year. He struck out six in the 109-pitch performance, throwing 77 strikes in his 53rd career start. Braden’s teammates mobbed him when the Mother’s Day masterpiece was over, leaving bats and gloves scattered on the field. The lefthander pointed to the sky in honor of his mom, Jodie Atwood, who died of cancer when he was a high school senior. He shared a long and tearful hug with his grandma, Peggy Lindsey, the woman who raised him, in front of the dugout. Braden’s perfect game was the sixth no-hitter in Oakland history. The 26-year-old Braden, a native of nearby Stockton, was a 24th-round draft pick by the A’s in 2004.

HIT AND RUN eird things happen from time to time during races at Darlington Raceway. Some of those happenings have been a product of the old track being so narrow that just a slight mistake, misjudgment or lack of concentration can trigger a huge wreck. Sometimes, the wrecks are terribly freakish, such as one under under yellow flag in Saturday night’s Southern 500. It was scary but resulted in no injuries. When the caution lights started flashing, A.J. Allmendinger hit his brakes trying to slow down going into turn three. Allmendinger quickly found out he couldn’t slow. He spun onto the apron in an effort to stay out of traffic, a maneuver that proved to be unsuccessful when his Ford went rear-end first up the banking and pinned Jimmie Johnson’s No. 48 against the outside wall with violent force. The crash finished one of the worst nights

5 3

for Johnson in a long time and continued a definite change in fortune for the winner of the last four Cup championships. Coming off a nearly flawless run to the fourth championship, Johnson and crew chief Chad Knaus looked as if they could do little wrong when they won three of the first five races this season, especially with breaks going their way late to hand them two of the wins. When the tour left Bristol after the most recent win, there was debate whether Johnson’s domination was good for the sport. That debate has died over the past three races in which he has crashed out at Talladega and Darlington, and struggled with handling at Richmond and Darlington. Meanwhile, Denny Hamlin caught lightning in a bottle and is the new hot kid on the block, winning three of those last six. Even with the slump, Johnson has dropped one spot to second in points and trials leader

Kevin Harvick by 110 points. Hamlin, with his surge, climbed to sixth, 164 off the top. Both could have a bad race and still not be in danger of falling out of contention for one of the 12 playoff spots. Even though Johnson has stubbed his toes, Hamlin still isn’t letting his guard down. “We have a lot of racing until the Chase,” Hamlin said. Johnson said at Martinsville the team tried some new things looking ahead to the Chase in the fall and never got the car right. Johnson and Knaus are masters of playing the Chase format for all it is worth, but usually wait until the summer to cruise. Their hot start affords them the luxury of trying new things without worrying about points. There is nothing to indicate they won’t be back in top form when the Chase starts.

Paul Williams earned a bizarre victory Saturday night when Kermit Cintron wasn’t allowed to continue after tumbling through the ropes and landing on a ringside table early in the fourth round late Saturday night in Carson, Calif. The 154-pound bout ended with Cintron strapped to a stretcher and wearing a neck brace, although he wanted to keep fighting. Williams (39-1, 27 KOs) was awarded a technical victory by split decision because he led on two of the three judges’ scorecards. California rules require a decision if a fight ends by injury after the fourth round begins. “It’s a strange way to get a win,” Williams said. “I wanted to hurt him with a punch, not by him falling out of the ring.” Cintron fell to 32-3-1. Judge Jen Kin scored it 40-36 for Williams, while Fritz Werner favored Williams 39-37. Jerry Cantu scored it 40-36 for Cintron.

Myers takes Bowman Gray 100 victory

Panthers take two of three from G-W SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE

SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE

WINSTON-SALEM – On Saturday night, fans were reminded why Bowman Gray Stadium is known as “The Madhouse.” Experienced veterans tangled with talented rookies, many fans were on their feet for more laps than not – and although Burt Myers of Walnut Cove won the race, the real star of the night was the Double-File “Choice” Restart Rule. Saturday’s Bill Plemmons RV World 100 was the first 100-lapper of the season for the Modified Series – and like all 100lap races, the field was determined by random draw. Junior Miller of Danbury drew the pole with Brian King of Gibsonville starting on the outside front row. Although King is a rookie to Bowman Gray Stadium, he’s far from a novice driver – so he pulled no punches as he battled with Miller, known as “the King of the Modifieds,” for the lead. As the green fell, neither driver would budge. Miller and King collided, spinning King around and bringing out the caution. Although Miller was able to maintain the lead, his car was badly damaged as a result of the incident. Miller knew it was only a matter of time until someone grabbed the lead away from him and his ailing car. That’s exactly what Tim Brown of Cana, Va. did less than 30 laps later, jumping up to the outside during a doublefile restart and powering past Junior Miller on the outside. Brown stayed up front despite hard nudges from Jonathan Brown of Winston-Salem and several outside-row challenges from Junior Miller. Burt Myers, who had been climbing his way up from a 16th-place start, was able to move up to the outside front row during a double-file restart at just a little over the halfway point. Brown was nudged by Zach Brewer of Winston-Salem as he tried to hold onto the top spot. The tap was just enough to get him off the pace and allow Myers to steal away the lead. Myers held onto the lead for the remainder of the race. Brown fought forward during the final laps to salvage a fifth-place finish. Brian Loftin of Lexington finished second, with Brent Elliott of Denton taking third. In the Sportsman Series, Bryant Robertson claimed the checkered in the first 20-lapper – his first win ever at the Stadium. Ryan Nelson of Winston-Salem held off Derek Stoltz of Walkertown to win the second 20-lap race. Matt Cotner of Rural Hall brought home the victory in the 20-lapper for the Stock Series. Billy Gregg of Winston-Salem grabbed the lead away from Cotner during a restart, but a bump from Cotner sent Gregg spinning. Cotner reclaimed the lead and was able to hang on the rest of the way. John McNeal of Winston-Salem and Allen Henkel of Trinity finished second and third. In Stadium Stock, Kenny Dixon took the checkered in the first 15-lapper, with Ted Mickalowski winning the second 15-lapper.

Denny Hamlin takes the checkered flag to win the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Showtime Southern 500 at Darlington Raceway in Darlington, S.C. late Saturday night.

Hamlin discovers winning mindset I

n his sixth year as a Cup driver, Denny Hamlin thinks he finally gets it. Now 29, Hamlin says he has learned he doesn’t need to lead every lap and that it is not the end of the world if he suffers a setback such as a bad pit stop early in a race. In other words, Hamlin was his own worst enemy, easily thrown off his game by a bad pit stop – one of the reasons that it has taken him almost four years to fulfill the promise shown by wins in both Pocono races during his rookie year in 2006. Mistakes limited his victory total to one race in both 2007 and 2008. Last year, he punched through to score four triumphs. With his victory in the Southern 500 on Saturday night, the Virginia native is tied with Jimmie Johnson at the top of the win column this season with three. All of his triumphs have come in the past six races. “Probably the first two to three years of my career, I probably wouldn’t have lost 10 races that I did if I would have had the mindset I have right now,” Hamlin said. “I think the only difference before when we weren’t winning as much and right now is my mindset and knowing what I need to do to win the race at the end. “It’s just taken me a while to understand how these races play out, what it takes to win.” The realization of how to take things in stride came last season when he didn’t try to lead every lap on the way to a September victory at Richmond, his hometown track. “I don’t think there was a certain point that I learned,” Hamlin said. “But I think (winning at) Homestead (in the final race of the season) taught me quite a bit. Richmond really was a turning point for us last year right before the Chase. Our car was very, very good and very, very dominant. At times I would just kind of give up the lead to Jeff (Gordon) just to see what he had. I just learned the panic kind of went away at times during the race when someone went around me. I knew I had a better car than anyone else. I could take my time. “Now we haven’t had cars as dominant as that one at Richmond, but we’ve had the calmness that we had during the course of the race that we had at Richmond, and we’ve made it through the end by making smart decisions and

not doing anything too drastic.” It is a calmness Hamlin says prevents him from getting flustered and making unforced errors. “I’ve just learned you don’t have to win ‘em in the first half,” Hamlin SPORTS said. “Really, you just want to be somewhere Greer around that top eight or Smith so the first half, some■■■ where around the top five with a hundred to go. You don’t need to panic when you’re not in the lead the whole race. When I needed to push the envelope, I had the car to do it, especially at the end.” He’s been able to push the envelope at the right time despite a knee injury suffered playing pickup basketball in January and a subsequent surgery in late March, the day after his first victory of the year at Martinsville. Hamlin fought through the pain 12 days later, waving off a relief driver and going the distance at Phoenix. “We didn’t know if he was going to make it the whole race, half a race, what was he going to do,” team president J.D. Gibbs said. “Like I said before, he went up a few notches in my eyes, the mental toughness.” Said Hamlin: “I just wanted to be a team player.” He won the next week at Texas and came back this weekend to sweep at Darlington, where he latched on with the Gibbs team by finishing eighth in a Nationwide race six years ago. The current surge is surprising both Hamlin and Mike Ford, who said the team had been running cars that were built but not raced in 2009 while getting new chassis ready to run during the 10-race championship chase at the end of the season. “We didn’t expect to have the success,” Hamlin said. “We thought we could contend for race wins, maybe get one here or there the first 12. We really wanted to come on right after Indy and turn the light switch on and really go for it.

Webber made it 10 straight winners from pole position at the Circuit de Catalunya after the Australian drove a flawless race for a 24-second victory over Alonso. “It was a crucial pole,” said Webber, who celebrated his third career victory by throwing his helmet into the stands.

Hamilton was second for most of the race before his tire blew out to send the McLaren driver into the wall shortly before the finish. Vettel took advantage to finish third for Red Bull despite running into the gravel after one of his brake pads blew out. Michael Schumacher of Mercedes was fourth.

HIGH POINT – The High Point University baseball team picked up the series win over GardnerWebb with a 16-10 victory Sunday in the final game of the series. Sophomore Kyle Starnes pitched four innings of relief for the win and junior Nate Roberts went 2-5 with a pair of home runs. “Today was a tremendous character win,” said head coach Craig Cozart. “To go down 5-0 through the first three innings and then respond offensively was outstanding. Two things happened tonight, we had great relief pitching from Kyle Starnes and Corey Swickle and Nate Roberts set the tone for us offensively, and everyone else followed suit. This was a tough series win for us, but a must and I am very happy with our performance.” Freshman Jared Avidon got the start for High Point, giving up four runs in the first inning and giving up two hits to lead off the second before he was relieved by Starnes. Starnes allowed one of Avidon’s runners to score before getting out of the

inning without further damage. Starnes posted scoreless third and fourth innings before giving up a run in the fifth. Gardner-Webb starter Conner Scarborough held HPU hitless through three innings before Mike Mercurio hit a double off the center field wall in the fourth. With Mercurio on second, Roberts hit a home run to right field to cut GWU’s lead to 5-2. Starnes pitched four innings, allowing two runs on seven hits with three strikeouts to improve to 3-1. Swickle pitched three innings in relief, allowing one unearned run in the eighth inning. Drew Dades came out of the bullpen for the ninth inning but gave up two runs with only one out before Mikel Rodenberg came in to close the game. Roberts had three runs scored and five RBIs and Geissinger went 3-5 with two runs scored and two RBIs. High Point (24-24, 10-11 Big South Conference) will play its final home game of the season on Wednesday when Western Carolina comes to Williard Stadium for a 6 p.m. game.

Celtics beat Cavs, even series BOSTON (AP) – Run over in Game 3, the Celtics were off and running Sunday. And Rajon Rondo was the one making those aging Boston legs go. Rondo had 29 points, 18 rebounds and 13 assists, and the Celtics beat the Cleveland Cavaliers 97-87 on Sunday to even the Eastern Conference semifinal series at two games apiece. Rondo had a playoff career high in rebounds and matched his best scoring night in his fourth postseason triple-double. He played 47 minutes with some of his bigger-name teammates in foul trouble, and fans chanted “MVP! MVP!” as he knocked down a pair of free throws with 17 seconds left. “He was absolutely sensational tonight,” Boston coach Doc Rivers said. Ray Allen and Kevin Garnett scored

18 apiece for the Celtics, who rebounded from the worst home playoff loss in franchise history and ensured they’ll get at least one more game at home. Game 5 is Tuesday night in Cleveland before the series returns to Boston on Thursday night. LeBron James scored 22 points – only one more than he had in the first quarter of Game 3 – and seemed frustrated during a seven-turnover performance. Shaquille O’Neal added 17 points, his high for this postseason, but was on the bench when the Celtics blew by the Cavaliers in the fourth quarter. Tony Allen scored a playoff careerhigh 15 points in 26 spirited minutes off the bench for the Celtics, helping spell the foul-plagued Paul Pierce and Ray Allen. Pierce continued to struggle, managing nine points in 31 minutes.

Tim Clark of South Africa kisses The Players Championship trophy on Sunday after his one-stroke victory in Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla. Clark carded 16-under 272 to secure his first career PGA Tour title.

Clark savors breakthrough PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. (AP) – Tim Clark no longer has to hear about being the best player to have never won on the PGA Tour. He settled that Sunday by beating the best field in golf. Clark played the final 26 holes without a bogey and made an 8-foot par on the final hole for a 5-under 67 to win The Players Championship with a record 36-hole comeback at TPC Sawgrass. “I did all I could there,” said Clark, a 34-year-old South African. “That’s as good as I could have played.” He needed every shot on a course with greens that were crisp, firm and pale yellow. The average score was nearly three shots higher than it was for the previous three rounds. Clark, seven shots behind going into the weekend, made four straight birdies around the turn to take the lead, and no one could catch him. Robert Allenby had the best chance, but an 18-foot eagle putt on the 16th and a 12-foot birdie try on the island-green 17th came within a fraction of an inch from going in. Clark became only the second player to make The Players Championship his first PGA Tour victory. He had gone more than eight years and 204 tournaments with nothing more to show than eight runner-up finishes. Tiger Woods managed to create a buzz without even being there most of the day. He withdrew on the seventh hole because of a neck injury that he fears might be from a

bulging disk. Woods said his neck has been bothering him since before the Masters. “I’ve been playing through it,” Woods said. “I can’t play through it anymore.” Phil Mickelson could have moved to No. 1 in the world with a victory, but the Masters champion never gave himself a good chance. He made bogey on three of his opening six holes, closed with a 74 and tied for 17th. Clark won for the fourth time worldwide. Clark won with a 66-67 weekend in which he made only one bogey – the 10th hole on Saturday. It was the best weekend on the treacherous Stadium Course since Fred Couples shot 132 to win in 1996. The 36-hole comeback topped the record of six that Woods set

when he won in 2001. Clark finished at 16-under 272 and earned $1.71 million. Allenby, winless on the PGA Tour since 2001, closed with a 70 to finish a stroke back. U.S. Open champion Lucas Glover shot 31 on the back, including a 50-foot birdie on the 17th, and wound up third at 14-under 274. Lee Westwood of England had the 54-hole lead, just as he did at the Masters last month, and couldn’t hold on. Westwood shot 39 on the back and fell into a tie for fourth with Davis Love III. For the first time in his career, Woods went consecutive weeks without making official money. Woods will have an MRI this week. He did not know when he would return.

White House: Wall Street chaos wasn’t from cyberattack

AP

Portuguese Finance Minister Fernando Teixeira Dos Santos (right) and French Finance Minister Christine Lagarde read over papers during an emergency meeting of EU finance ministers in Brussels Sunday.

EU ministers work on euro rescue plan BRUSSELS (AP) – European Union finance ministers struggled Sunday to work out the details of a new rescue mechanism for financially troubled governments as they sought to contain a debt crisis and keep markets from targeting weaker eurozone members – and get it done before trading starts in Asia in a few hours. Spanish Finance Minister Elena Salgado said the ministers were determined to safeguard the currency used by 16 of the EU’s 27 member states, which has come under increasing pressure since the financial meltdown of one of its members, Greece. France and Germany, the two

largest members of the eurozone, agree on measures to resolve the European financial crisis, according to a two-sentence statement from French President Nicolas Sarkozy’s office Sunday. But Britain sought to maintain a clear monetary line between the problems of the euro and its cherished pound. “I am very, very clear that if there is a proposal to create a stability fund for the euro, that has got to be a matter for the euro-group countries,” British Chancellor Alastair Darling told the BBC. “What we can’t do is to provide support for the euro. That has got to be for those countries that use the euro.”

WASHINGTON (AP) – The White House’s homeland security and counterterrorism adviser says there is no evidence that a cyber attack was behind the chaos that shook Wall Street last Thursday. John Brennan told “Fox News Sunday” that officials have uncovered no links suggesting that cyber attacks caused turbulence that sent the Dow Jones industrials plunging almost 1,000 points before staging a partial recovery at the end of the day. The market already was weak because of the spreading European debt crisis. Some have speculated that a typographical error might have triggered the mas-

sive computerized selloff. Regulators and market officials are scouring millions of trades to understand what caused the volatility. The SEC will meet today with representatives from major exchanges, according to Joe Ratterman, CEO of BATS Global Markets, one of the largest U.S. trading networks. Nasdaq OMX Group and NYSE Euronext in a joint statement Sunday said they are committed to working closely with each other, the Securities and Exchange Commission and other regulators to determine the cause of Thursday’s market plunge and develop effective ways to make the markets more stable.

Dodd urges SEC to look at high-speed trading

The deal is to be announced ahead of trading in Asia if a qualified majority of the 27 EU finance ministers sign on. Sarkozy’s office said he spoke with President Barack Obama and the two leaders agreed on “the need for a large-scale response to the current disorders that are affecting the markets.” The EU’s slow response to the crisis and its failure to keep Greece from reaching the brink of bankruptcy triggered slides in the euro and global stocks last week, and intensified fears the crisis would spread to other countries with shaky finances such as Spain and Portugal.

WASHINGTON (AP) ard Shelby of Alabama, – Federal regulators have joined Dodd on CBS’ “Face got to address the “casino the Nation” to agree that environment” on Wall something must be done. “You’ve got a high Street where computerized high-frequency trading risk in the market place can trigger market-shak- that something could go ing turmoil, Senate Bank- wrong and once it really ing Committee Chairman goes wrong it could be catastrophic,” Shelby said.

Investors’ resolve tested by plunge THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

The stomach-churning turmoil that revisited the stock market last week may not be gone yet. That’s not to say investors should brace for another dizzying drop like the intraday 1,000 point plunge in the Dow Jones industrial average on Thursday. Lingering uneasiness over the sudden decline seems likely to muzzle buying activity, however, over the coming week at a time when Europe’s

sovereign debt crisis is still unfolding. Further trouble in Greece or elsewhere could re-ignite selling by investors who just saw the stock market’s entire 2010 gain of 8 percent wiped out in a four-day losing streak. “Nerves are frayed and fragile and exposed right now,” says Rob Lutts, president and chief investment officer at Cabot Money Management in Salem, Mass. “The market is under the control of the short-term investor. Lon-

ger-term investors are sitting on the sidelines.” Those short-term investors so far are choosing to “sell in May and go away,” as an old Wall Street adage goes. The month is off to its worst start ever, with the Standard & Poor’s 500 index down 6.4 percent and having shed $685 billion. Which direction the market goes from here depends on investors’ emotional stability, according to Liz Ann Sonders, chief investment strategist for brokerage Charles Schwab & Co.

Financial advisers are counseling investors not to panic or overreact to any continued price decline. Apart from Greece, they note, economic indicators underpinning the stock market have been improving. “People are nervous for a lot of reasons, but they should keep their wits about them and focus on the fundamentals,” said Carol Clark, investment principal at wealth management firm Lowry Hill in Minneapolis.

IMF board approves nearly $40 billion Greece loan WASHINGTON (AP) – The International Monetary Fund has put up nearly $40 billion to help bail out Greece and appease investors’ fears of a spreading European debt crisis. The IMF’s executive board met in Washington Sunday to approve a three-year, ¤30 billion loan for the debt-plagued nation, part of a $140 billion package (¤110 billion) negotiated with other eurozone countries.

DILBERT

With hundreds of billions in debts and a budget deficit of 13.6 percent of gross domestic product, Greece was just weeks away from default when eurozone finance ministers agreed to activate a rescue. Greece has enacted tax hikes and deep cutbacks in government spending as a condition of the bailout. The austerity measures have sparked riots and social unrest in the nation. “The Greek government

should be commended for committing to an historic course of action that will give this proud nation a chance of rising above its current troubles and securing a better future for the Greek people,” IMF Managing Director Dominique Strauss-Kahn said in a statement Sunday. “Today’s strong action by the IMF to support Greece will contribute to the broad international effort under way to help bring

stability to the euro area and secure recovery in the global economy,” Strauss-Kahn said. Eurozone leaders on Saturday approved a $100 billion package of loans to help keep Greece from imploding. Greece will have immediate access to $25.7 billion from the IMF and EU bailouts, and will be able to tap a total of about $51.5 billion this year. Athens needed to see the first installment of funds

before May 19, when billions in 10-year bonds come due. Together, the bailouts give Greece enough money to avoid having to raise private funds for two years, IMF officials said. By that time, Greece hopefully will be strong enough economically to borrow through private debt markets, IMF deputy managing director John Lipsky said in a call with reporters Sunday.

OPEC: No need for emergency meeting DOHA, Qatar (AP) – Several key OPEC ministers on Sunday dismissed the need for an emergency meeting to address oil prices that have fallen by over 10 percent in just days, but voiced concern about the impact of the Greek debt crisis on crude markets.

Qatar’s oil minister, Abdullah bin Hamad alAttiyah, said the market was moving in reaction to the “psychological” impact of the Greek financial crisis and concerns that it could expand elsewhere in Europe. Oil producers “have to

wait calmly so that we know what will happen,” al-Attiyah told reporters, speaking during the Arab Energy Forum in the Qatari capital. “The world is now in a tunnel, groping for an exit, but there is so far no light at the end of the tunnel.”

Premiums may undermine coverage guarantee for kids

The cable attached to the oil containment device lowered to the sea floor is seen off the Q4000 mobile drilling platform at the site of the Deepwater Horizon spill in the Gulf of Mexico, off the coast of Louisiana, Sunday.

Oil spill grows to 3.5M gallons ON THE GULF OF MEXICO (AP) – A growing collection of crippled equipment littered the ocean floor Sunday near a ruptured oil well gushing crude into the Gulf of Mexico, the remnants of a massive rig that exploded weeks ago and the failed efforts since to cap the leak. On the surface, nearly a mile up, a fleet of ships maneuvered to deploy the latest stopgap plans hatched by

BP engineers desperate to keep the Deepwater Horizon disaster from becoming the nation’s worst spill. An estimated 3.5 million gallons has risen from the depths since the April 20 explosion that killed 11, a pace that would surpass the total spilled in the Exxon Valdez disaster by Father’s Day. A day after ice-like crystals clogged a four-story box that workers had lowered atop the main leak,

crews using remote-controlled submarines hauled the specially built structure more than a quarter-mile away and prepared other long-shot methods of stopping the flow. Chief operating officer Doug Suttles said BP was thinking about putting a smaller containment dome over the massive leak, believing that it would be less vulnerable. The smaller dome could be ready to deploy Tuesday or Wednesday.

WASHINGTON (AP) – Health insurance cuts a dividing line right through the Thompson family. Parents Mary and Joe have coverage, as does older daughter Sarah. But siblings Andrew and Emily have been turned down due to medical conditions even though both lead fairly normal and active lives in Overland Park, Kan., a Kansas City suburb. Starting later this year, President Barack Obama’s health care law requires insurers to accept all children regardless of medical history. But the law doesn’t limit what the companies can charge, and the Thompsons fear that could leave them in the same predicament: still no insurance for two children because it costs too much. “If that’s the way it’s going to shake out, it’s not really that helpful,” said Mary Thompson. “I could be looking at a $500-amonth policy for just the two of them,” she said. The Thompsons buy their own health insurance. Joe is a self-em-

ployed home remodeling contractor and Mary helps with the business. Forbidding denials and exclusions because of medical conditions is one of the major reforms of the new law. The problem mainly affects people who buy coverage directly, and workers in small businesses. Nearly 20,500 children were denied coverage because of medical conditions in 2008, the latest year for which statistics are available. More than 18,300 were issued policies that exclude a particular condition, often at a higher premium. For decades, insurers have used such practices to protect against risk, mindful of the bottom line but also helping to restrain premiums for healthier families. The downside is that people in need of medical care get locked out of the system. That can be particularly damaging for children who don’t get needed treatment. They can be relegated to less productive lives as adults, or dependence on society.

After GOP defeat in Utah, conservative critics set sights on Kentucky WASHINGTON (AP) – After toppling three-term Republican Sen. Robert F. Bennett in Utah, tea party activists and other conservative critics shifted their sights Sunday to a midMay primary in Kentucky, their next big challenge to a political establishment they have vowed to upend. Bennett, 76, left the door open to a write-in campaign after losing his bid

for renomination, raising the possibility of an unpredictable three-way race that could yet extend his career. But within minutes of Bennett’s defeat, the chairman of the Republican senatorial campaign committee, Sen. John Cornyn of Texas, announced the organization will support the winner of a June 22 primary between busi-

Bridgewater Lee Orrin Hatch, also a conservative, who may face a nessman Tim Bridgewater challenge from GOP Rep. and attorney Mike Lee. Jason Chaffetz in 2012. Republicans are heavily In contrast to Utah, favored to hold the seat where about 3,500 party acin the fall in a state that tivists determined which

candidates would qualify for the ballot, the May 18 contest in Kentucky is a traditional primary, open to all registered Republicans. There, Secretary of State Trey Grayson has the support of Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., Rep. Hal Rogers, a veteran lawmaker and dozens of local political leaders. “I rarely endorse

in primaries, but these are critical times,” McConnell said in a television ad. Grayson’s challenger, Rand Paul, son of former presidential candidate Ron Paul, has the backing of tea party activists, as well as former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, former GOP presidential candidate Steve Forbes and – after a switch last week – evangelical leader James Dobson.
