City Council axes proposed charge for garbage collection BY DIANNA BELL ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – High Point City Council has backed down from a proposal that would have created a new $6 monthly fee for garbage collection. City Manager Strib Boynton said the council on Thursday decided not to pursue the proposed fee that was included in his 20102011 budget proposal, which the council reviewed on Wednesday and Thursday. “We felt that additional fees were not the appropriate thing to do at the time,” Mayor Becky Smothers said Thursday. “We realized the hardships that the community is facing and wanted to lessen the

impact of that burden.” The proposal came under fire by Councilman Mike Pugh on Wednesday, who said he had received calls from elderly residents who were afraid they couldn’t afford another fee during the current tough economic times. On a broader scope, the public is suffering from pay cuts, and imposing more fees on an already suffering community would not be wise, he said. The solid waste collection fee would have generated $1,270,000, according to Boynton. After Wednesday’s budget session, Boynton said he re-evaluated the draft budget and, in response to opposition from residents and other council members, recommended the fee be axed.

Boynton added that the solid waste collection fee may be subject to a revision in the future. Instead of the fee, City Council approved Boynton’s recommendation to balance the 2010-2011 budget with a one-time only transfer of $1 million from the Electric Fund to the General Fund, as well as a $300,000 reduction for fleet replacement. The latest budget revision also restores $270,000 in beer and wine taxes originally thought to be cut from the state budget. The first public hearing on the proposed budget will be at 5:30 p.m. Monday, June 7, with the second hearing scheduled at 9 a.m. Thursday, June 10.

Online retailer to add 300 jobs TECHNICAL EDUCATION:

BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

LEXINGTON – Vitacost. com Inc., a leading online retailer and direct marketer of health and wellness products, will create 300 new jobs over the next five years to double the size of its facility and amount of employees in Lexington, the company announced Thursday. During a press conference at the company’s facility in the Lexington Business Park, Ira Kerker, Vitacost.com chief executive officer, told a group of state and local leaders, including Keith Crisco, N.C. secretary of commerce, that the company needs to expand because sales have increased 25 to 30 percent each year. “We are a benefactor of New Year’s resolutions,” Kerker said. “Everyone wants to eat better, lose weight, take their vitamins and take their supplements. Our business model stays relatively flat throughout the year, and the first quarter it steps up 20 percent, and then we grow 3 or 4 percent each quarter.” Vitacost.com, headquartered in Boca Raton, Fla., employs 285 employees at its 112,000-square-foot Lexington facility, which the company bought in February 2007. Investing $11.5 million, the company plans to hire 300 additional employees and add 115,000 square feet to the facility in Lexington. Kerker said the company, which plans to have its expansion completed

Retirement home faces possible fine Death of resident sparks investigation BY PAT KIMBROUGH ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – A High Point retirement center faces possible penalties after state regulators cited deficiencies that included improper medication administration for one resident who died.

Son of woman who died says proposed penalty is too light. 1B The N.C. Department of Health and Human Services’ Penalty Review Committee on May 13 unanimously supported proposed fines of $16,000 against the Wesleyan Arms Retirement Center on N. Centennial Street. The department’s Division of Health

Service Regulation recommended the penalties after determining that the facility “failed to provide medications and/or implement treatments as ordered by the physician and/or notify the physician of acute health care needs” of four residents, in violation of state regulations. The committee sent its recommendation to the chief of the department’s Adult Care Section, who will decide what to impose, according to department spokesman Jim Jones, who said the

Board votes to pay for repairs with conventional financing BY DAVID NIVENS ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

GUILFORD COUNTY – Commissioners agreed Thursday to pay for $16.8 million in school repairs with conventional financing. Given a choice of using Qualified School Construction Bonds or certificates of participation, the Board of Commissioners chose the COPS, which are more like commercial loans or mortgages, but do not require a voter referendum. The board, which voted 9-1 for COPS, will hold a public hearing on the project list. Democratic Commissioner Kirk Perkins voted against the COPS. School officials had asked the Board of Commissioners to use a second installment of the federal stimulus bonds for repairs and maintenance. Last August, commissioners approved using the 2009 $17.1 million installment to help pay off school

construction projects on the 2008 bond list. Both are low-interest programs with the stimulus bonds at slightly lower rates, said County Manager Brenda Jones-Fox. The bond proceeds would not count against the county’s total debt, she said. With a new loan, county officials would not have to worry about working within the limits of the 2008 project list bond financing. “If you did this within that authority, you would not know if there was enough money to finish the program until near the end,” Jones-Fox said. Money from the stimulus bonds must be spent in three years. “Using COPS allows us to move along with the needs of the county,” said Democratic at-large Commissioner John Parks of High Point. “The needs are well documented.” During a Tuesday budget session, school district leaders reported a host of problems at aging schools ranging from leaking roofs to cracked pavement and outmoded electrical lines.

The most expensive district renovations on the 2010 list are heating and air conditioning upgrades costing a much as $2 million. Commissioners targeted the first installment to help pay off upgrades planned for Allen Middle School and Grimsley High School included on the $457 million 2008 construction bond projects list and save $6 million in interest. “We need to start on projects where we have immediate needs,” said Republican Commissioner Billy Yow. “If we wait, the damage will be more.” In other business, commissioners unanimously approved the sale of the 29-acre Evergreens Senior Health Care property on Wendover Avenue for $7.4 million to Greensboro Auto Auction. The site adjoins the company’s 232-acre property. The sale is expected to close in July. GAA offered the appraised property value and there were no reported upset bids. dnivens@hpe.com | 888-3626

Bus takes wrong students on field trip LITTLE FERRY, N.J. (AP) – Officials say a mix-up led a school bus driver in northern New Jersey to start to take students to an amusement park instead of school. About 30 Ridgefield Park High School students boarded the bus around 7:45 a.m.

Wednesday, thinking it was the bus they ride every day. But the driver had shown up early to take seventh- and eighth-graders to Six Flags Great Adventure at 9 a.m. The students became worried when the bus reached the New Jersey Turnpike and called

their parents and the school when the driver wouldn’t stop. The driver eventually listened to them and exited the interstate, then turned around. School officials had called police, who stopped the bus. An officer rode aboard until it reached the school.

The cause of death “related to multiple nocturnal hypoglycemic episodes which ultimately caused her to succumb to a diabetic coma,” the report stated. In the case of three other residents, the report stated that the facility’s staff did not follow physicians’ orders when it came to administering insulin, notifying the doctor about high blood sugar levels and following other medical protocol for treating hypoglycemia, which placed the residents “at substantial risk for serious physical harm and/or death.”

SONDRA FOY: Cantor’s council for a new America gets canned. TOMORROW

Opinion Page Editor: Vince Wheeler vwheeler@hpe.com (336) 888-3517

Loss of moral landmarks puts nation in danger I’ve been thinking about our political situation in Washington, the Supreme Court rulings concerning prayer, abortion, Christmas, Easter, education, marriage, sexuality and anything to do with Christian values this country was founded upon. I am greatly concerned that our religious freedoms are being taken away by a group of leaders that is bringing this nation to the edge of destruction. I was reading an article by David B. Crabtree, “There’s Hope for Today,” May 13. He asked: “What invites God’s wrath like a waterfall?” Answer: Removing historical landmarks so that a generation slips her moral anchors. Israel had forgotten God. Her leadership was culpable. Having thrown off moral restraint, the nation tottered on the edge of destruction. Our leadership in Washington is responsible for more than its visionary reach. Our president, Supreme Court and the elected officials are responsible to maintain the moral landmarks – reminders of who we are and how we got here. In recent days and years, a concerted effort has been made to remove the Christian landmarks from America’s history. The rise of pluralism has been marked by downgrading of Chris-

tianity, from a dominant and driving force to an insignificant historical footnote. Some would have us forget that the majority of our Founding Fathers felt our form of government was untenable except for its Christian underpinning. Should we now ignore the God that they so freely invoked, we shall cease to know His blessing and hasten to invite His wrath. Without landmarks, we are lost. Without moral precepts, we have no basis for justice. Without truth, we have no rudder, nor compass. Without remembrance, we invite the repetition of barbaric atrocity. Hosea 5:10 NKJV – “The princes of Judah, leadership of this nation, are like those who remove a landmark; I will pour out My wrath on them like water.” REV. DANNY L. ROMINGER High Point

Christians hate liberalism because it, like sin, destroys In response to the recent column by Robert Healy: “Where are the Christians who show the Bible’s love?”

One of the most difficult concepts for liberals to comprehend is that a loving God hates sin yet loves sinners, and because of His holy nature, He must judge sin and punish those who reject God’s pardon of sin and the gift of eternal life which was made possible through His love, mercy and grace in the person of His only begotten Son, the Lord Jesus Christ (John 3:16). Christians do not hate sinners but, like God, hate sin and try to persuade sinners to turn from sin and damnation. Christ stated, “I do always those things which please Him [God]” (John 8:27). In other words, He said, “I love the things God loves and hate the things God hates.” Christians likewise don’t hate liberals, but hate liberalism because liberalism, like sin, destroys. Liberal politicians destroy nations; liberal justices destroy our judicial system; liberal theologians damn souls to hell. Liberals in general destroy the morals of a nation. Strange indeed are the ways of God and of Christians as seen through the eyes of fools and reprobates. Romans 1:22 “Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools …” verse 28 “…and

(because they did not like to retain God in their knowledge) God gave them over to a reprobate mind.” CLAYTON L. PROCTOR SR. Trinity

T

t certainly doesn’t mean that High Point’s recent slowdown in convention and tourism business is over. But it surely was nice to hear that the city’s room occupancy tax generated an increase in revenues in February, reversing monthly declines for more than a year. Yes, it was small gain, but at least it was a positive sign.

he first step along the long-envisioned public-private partnership has been taken to get The City Project execution of plans for revival of the former Washington Street corridor under way. The Hayden-Harman Foundation of Burlington is investing about $120,000 in buying a former barber shop and restaurant at 613 Washington Drive in which to house The City Project office and, perhaps in the front, some type of art gallery. Formerly tagged the Core City Plan, The City Project is a nonprofit public-private collaboration effort to promote the growth and revitalization of as many as eight neighborhoods in the city’s 11-squaremile urban core. The Enterprise reported this week that city engineers have completed designs for “shovel-ready” streetscape projects, such as burying utility lines along the corridor, and planners are working to get part of the corridor designated as a historic district. Such a designation would enable developers who want to rehabilitate properties there to obtain tax credits. Additionally, law enforcement has an initiative under way to shut down drug houses and curb crime in the neighborhood. The city has done about as much as it can at this point in a public-private coalition to position the Washington Drive corridor makeover effort for further action. For it to be successful, however, more private developers and community activist groups are going to have to step up and carry the private part of the public-private partnership forward.

Be persistent in seeking your deserved veterans benefits

I

hear from so many veterans about the problems they encounter trying to get their claims processed. I understand their disappointment because of my own situation. I filed a claim for loss of hearing back in 1973, when the then Veterans Administration claimed I had tinnitus or ringing in the ears. I might have had ringing in the ears, but most all veterans have this problem after years of being around loud noises. If you have ever been in the military, all the equipment that is used in combat you were around makes loud noises – trucks, planes, guns. It certainly is more than ringing in the ears, having loss of hearing is a serious disability. I am still trying to solve my loss of hearing claim; but recently I did receive digital hearing aids and I am able to hear much better. The VA did not have new hearing aids, only re-conditioned hearing aids. Now this has changed; new ones are available. I can understand any veteran’s frustration, but don’t give up and sooner or later you will get there. I don’t like to say this, but I might as well – “the squeaky wheel, will get the grease” sooner or later. The greatest problem with the Department of Veterans Affairs in the past few years has been not enough money in the budget. The cost of fighting a war is enormous, and taking care of veterans who fight wars is also extremely costly. Veterans are living longer and caring for us is costing more money. Another reason for needing more funds is that the VA’s expansion of the number of Agent Orange-related illnesses automatically qualifies troops for disability benefits. Veterans exposed to Agent Orange during the Vietnam War will likely file for additional claims that will have a huge impact upon the growing number of claims being processed. The number of claims being filed is overwhelming the VA system. There was a 75 percent increase in claims filed from July 2008 to

January 2010. This is a reminder to veterans who served in Vietnam during the time Agent Orange was being used to file a claim now if you have an illness relating to Agent Orange. President Obama is requesting $125 billion for veterans VETERAN’S in 2011. This request covers many areas but focuses on three VIEWS central issues that are of critical importance to veterans. They Stan are: 1) easier access to benefits Spangle Sr. and services, 2) faster disability ■■■ claims decisions and 3) ending the downward spiral that results in veterans becoming homeless. On a typical night, about 131,000 veterans are homeless. They represent every war and generation from the “Greatest Generation” to the latest generation of veterans who serve in Iraq and Afghanistan. Traditional observance of Memorial Day has diminished over the years, and I believe this happened when Congress made the day into a three-day weekend in with the National Holiday act of 1971. On Jan. 19, 1999, Sen. Daniel Inouye introduced a bill to restore the Memorial Day observance to May 30. To date, there has been no further action on the bill. Memorial Day will be May 31, and there are many events planned. I am sure The High Point Enterprise will publish this information. Hopefully, every veteran who is physically able will attend one of these events and encourage family members to do so as well. If possible stop for a moment of remembrance. Freedom is not free; it never was and never will be. God Bless America and all the other nations. Semper Fi. STAN SPANGLE SR. is a 21-year veteran of the Marine Corps, serving in Korea and Vietnam.

Graves shares memories of High Point

WHO’S NEWS

----

BY DIANNA BELL ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – Lawrence Graves, 81, knows a thing or two about hurdling obstacles. Growing up during the heat of the Civil Rights movement, Graves encountered hatred and anger, yet still remained steadfast. “As a child, I was playing near the street with two other children,” Graves recounted. “A patrol car pulled up to us, and an officer rolled down his window and told us to run.” Graves’ playmates took off crying and screaming. Graves stood rooted to the spot. “The police officer stared me down and said, ‘Didn’t you hear what I said, boy?’” Graves recalled. “I told him. ‘Yes, but my grandfather always taught me not to run if I didn’t do anything wrong, and I didn’t do anything wrong.’” Graves relived his experiences growing up and residing in High Point on Wednesday as the featured speaker for the High Point Museum Guild. The program, titled “An African-American Family’s Contribution to Development of High Point,” explored Graves’ life and a bit of his family’s heritage and service to the community. Graves greatly admires his grandfather, Peter Graves, who was once one of the few African-Americans in High Point. His grandfather faced down the Ku Klux Klan with the help of one of his neighbors and voted in a time when the Jim Crow laws kept others at bay. “My grandfather always said there were three lessons I had to learn in life,” Graves said. “The first thing you have to do is to learn to love yourself; the second thing is to learn to love others and the third is to learn to forgive.” Graves was the second African-American to be elected to the High Point City Council during the 1960s. He recalled one member’s outrage at his appointment. “He pulled out racial slurs and threatened my well-being,” Graves said. The council member said Graves had the system figured out and “we need to stop him.” The next day Graves got a call from the bank telling him that they were calling in his loans. Unless he could somehow secure the money, his property would be repossessed. One of the members on the board had been disgusted by the attack on Graves and stepped forward to lend him a hand and point him toward someone who could help. Graves was sent back to the bank, but this time was introduced to a man who offered him the $30,000 he needed, no questions asked. “All he wanted to hear was that I would repay him before he died,” Graves said of the bank employee. “And I did just that.” A few other highlights of Graves’ career include serving in the U.S. Army and working for the High Point Police Department for 19 years. He also served as the first African-American Police Chief for the Piedmont Triad International Airport Police Department for six years. editor@hpe.com | 888-3537

One of the six ring-tailed lemurs on exhibit at the N.C. Zoo in Asheboro enjoys a carrot.

Leapin’ lemurs Animals native to Madagascar on exhibit at zoo BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

ASHEBORO – For the first time in the N.C. Zoo’s history, lemurs, the species featured in the movie Madagascar, will be on exhibit this weekend at the zoo in Asheboro. Lemurs, which can naturally be found only on the island of Madagascar near the coast of Africa, will be on exhibit on Saturday during the grand opening of the “Lemur Island.” Zoo officials expect the exhibit featuring lemurs to be popular, thanks to the computer-animated film Madagascar that was a hit with children. “The movie Madagascar really brought lemurs and the island into the pub-

lic,” said Terry Webb, the zoo’s curators for mammals. “That really brought them into the public eye and Webb really got children and adults interested in Madagascar and lemurs.” Webb said the exhibit, which will feature six ringtailed and two red-ruffed lemurs has been under construction since September. Ring-tailed lemurs are highly social and can live up to 27 years in captivity. Unlike their ring-tailed cousins, red-ruffled lemurs spend most of their time in the trees. “They are active, dynamic and really, really interest-

ing to watch,” the curator said of lemurs. “They have some really unique behaviors. They do a lot of scent marking for communication with their wrist, with their arm pits, with their groin and with their tail.” Tom Gillespie, the N.C. Zoo’s public relation’s specialist, said he thinks the exhibit, which will be open year-round, is going to be “a really fun exhibit for people.” “These kinds of animals tend to really draw the crowds,” Gillespie said. “Any time we get a new animal that’s especially active like this, it’s really a bonus for the visitors. These guys are just fun to watch.” dignasiak@hpe.com | 888-3657

Death sparks probe. 1A BY PAT KIMBROUGH ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – A report by state regulators described several problems related to the care of a former Wesleyan Arms Retirement Center resident at the center of an investigation by the N.C. Division of Health Service Regulation. Rosa Higgins was diabetic and had significant

coronary artery disease. The report found problems with the facility’s administration of insulin that she was prescribed, as well as other shortcomings. Higgins died at age 68 after falling into a diabetic coma in November 2008. Her son, Allen Smith of Raleigh, said he filed a complaint with the state after her death, helping spark an investigation that led to proposed penalties of $16,000. “I don’t think they were fined anywhere near what

they should have been fined. What is the price of a human life?” Smith said. “What these people did killed my Mom. That’s a fact. My personal belief is, they should have had their license revoked.” The report stated that staff interviews revealed numerous times in September, October and November 2008 when Higgins’ blood sugar was at critically low and high levels but the facility “failed to assure referral and follow-up to meet the acute and routine health care

needs” of the resident. Regulators also noted missed medication doses for Higgins, who was prescribed Synthroid, a synthetic thyroid hormone, and found the facility failed to assure a followup appointment was made with her cardiologist in June 2008. Smith said his mother was at another facility in Archdale before she went to Wesleyan Arms in June 2008. “Up until she left (the Archdale facility), she was stable. After she left,

things just went to hell in a handbasket real quick,” he said. “My attorney told me usually they don’t come up with a (proposed) fine this hefty. The system thinks this is a pretty severe fine. I think it’s chump change.” Last year, High Point University agreed to buy Wesleyan Arms and the neighboring Wesleyan Homes complex from Providence Place and convert the site into student housing. pkimbrough@hpe.com | 888-3531

House moves ahead as NC Senate gives budget OK RALEIGH (AP) – House budget writers on Thursday started considering the Senate’s $19 billion budget plan, singling out some differences and announcing they would aim to cut an additional $200 million from public education. The Senate earlier in the day voted 30-16 to approve its version of the spending plan to run state government for the year starting July 1.

House budget subcommittees got their marching orders from their superiors on the full appropriations panel on how much to cut and complete their work by the end of next week. The House wants to approve its full budget plan by June 4 – giving the two chambers about three weeks to work out a compromise to present to Gov. Beverly Perdue before July 1. Rep. Phil Haire, D-Jack-

son, a co-chairman of the House Appropriations Committee, said he believed the final negotiations will be easier based on what he’s seen in the Senate plan and what the House intends to roll out. “It’s much better than what we saw last year, so I think there’ll be less areas of discussion,� Haire said. “I think our priorities are really jobs and education.� But the House’s educa-

tion subcommittee was told to make spending reductions that are twice as deep than those in the Senate plan – $360 million in net cuts, or 3.3 percent, versus $159 million in the Senate’s budget plan. Rep. Rick Glazier, DCumberland, an education subcommittee cochairman, said he believes the top budget writers are seeking more balance in proposed cuts across state government.

ear Abby: I’m an athletic, youthfullooking 58, and my son, “Barry,� is 24. We go out alone for dinner quite often because my husband (Barry’s father) doesn’t enjoy eating in restaurants. My problem is the angry stares my son and I get from younger – and older – women who mistake me for a “cougar� out on a date with my “cub.� The other night when I left our table to use the restroom, a woman approached Barry, told him he was “disgusting,� and asked, “Why don’t you date girls your own age?� He informed her that I was his mother, but even if I wasn’t, it was none of her business. Another time, a girl Barry’s age asked him why he was out with “an old hag� and said, “How can you want her over me?� This happens every time we go out. I dress well and look like I could be in my 40s, but I have to wonder about the rudeness and ignorance of someone insulting my son without knowing the circumstances of the situation. Some of them refused to believe the truth even after Barry told them. Interestingly, young men who have commented thought it was “awesome� that Barry could be out with a cougar. It’s only the females who have a problem with us. Can you comment on this? – Happily Married Mom in Ohio Dear Mom: Some

thoughts do come to mind: Women who are happy in their personal ADVICE lives don’t approach Dear strangers Abby with snide ■■■remarks like those you have repeated. The women were rude, presumptuous, probably envious – and I’ll bet they were also alone, because it’s hard to imagine a woman with a date doing something so outrageous. I’m not surprised that younger men might think it was “awesome� that your son could be out with a cougar. When the subject was raised in my column, the men who commented said what attracted them to older women was that they are confident, relaxed, comfortable with themselves and fun to be around – while younger women didn’t bother to be subtle about their preference for men with money. And one more thing: You must be quite a knockout to attract the kind of attention you’re getting. Dear Abby: I am a 19year-old guy who doesn’t know what I want to do with my life. I know I’m still young and shouldn’t stress out about what my career in life will be, but nothing seems to interest me. I don’t want to be a doctor or an astronomer like some do. I can’t cook

or play any instruments, and I’m not very good with numbers. I have thought of hundreds of careers – and I hate them all. I don’t want to do something I will hate for the rest of my life, but I’m afraid that’s what will happen. I have been to three different counselors and none was able to help me. I’m hoping you can offer me some advice. – Hopeless in Chandler, Ariz. Dear Hopeless: You aren’t the first person to panic because he (or she) is afraid of being stuck in a career slot that doesn’t fit. The good news is one of the realities of today’s workplace is that in many cases, jobs no longer last a lifetime. Workers can expect to change jobs and be retrained several times – or more – during their working years. I hope this relieves some of your anxiety. Although you have decided what jobs do not interest you, nowhere have you mentioned any areas in which you excel. For that reason I’m advising you to go to your nearest community college career counseling center and ask to take some aptitude tests. People usually enjoy doing something they’re good at.

Medicine and simple maneuvers help COPD

D

ear Dr. Donohue: I quit smoking one year ago. I had a cough when I was smoking, and I still have it, but it’s much milder. I saw a doctor, who tells me I have COPD. I do pant when I have to climb stairs or do chores around the house. The doctor put me on a medicine that I inhale. How is that helping me? What else can I do? – H.G.

BLONDIE

COPD, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, is something that happens to many smokers. It happens to nonsmokers too, but not in the numbers that it strikes smokers. Emphysema and chronic bronchitis are the two COPD illnesses, and both usually develop together. Emphysema destroys the air sacs, the tiny, delicate, bubblelike structures through which oxygen passes into the blood. Chronic bronchitis is perpetual inflammation of the bronchi, the airways. Symptoms of COPD are breathlessness on exertion, cough, production of thick sputum and wheezing. The degree of COPD is best assessed through breathing tests – spirometry. Those tests guide the doctor in prescribing medicines and advising patients how they can best cope with COPD. Your inhaler medicine is one that expands the airways and reduces inflammation and mucus production. Often the inhaler contains both a

bronchodilator (airway expander) and a cortisone drug (inflammation HEALTH fighter). Taken as Dr. Paul an inhalDonohue ant, little ■■■ cortisone gets into the blood, so its side effects are not great. Some simple tips make breathing easier for COPD patients. When you walk, bend slightly forward at the waist. That gives the lungs more room to expand, and it facilitates the action of the diaphragm, the chief breathing muscle. Practice pursed-lip breathing. Inhale through your nose and exhale through lips that are puckered, as they are put together when a person whistles. If you’re into precision, inhalation ought to take four seconds, and exhalation six. Pursed-lip breathing keeps the airways opened. Dear Dr. Donohue: Since I can’t go out in cold weather for sunlight and its production of vitamin D, will sunlight shining beautifully through my window have the same effect? Or is it better to take a vitamin D pill? – M.F. In summer or winter, window glass filters out ultraviolet-B rays, the sun rays that convert a precursor chemical in

the skin into vitamin D. Therefore, the answer to your question is that you do not stimulate vitamin D production by sitting in front of a window through which sunlight shines. You live in the North. In winter, Northerners deplete their vitamin D stores because winter sun is less intense and because people are exposed to too little sunlight. It’s better to take a vitamin D supplement. The suggested dose is 1,000 IU. Don’t forget calcium. Vitamin D enhances calcium absorption. Dear Dr. Donohue: I am a 79-year-old lady who really likes molasses. I eat it every day. Is that too much sugar? Is it a good source of iron? – L.M. Molasses is the residue resulting from refining sugar cane and sugar beets in the preparation of table sugar. One tablespoon has 11.9 grams of sucrose (table sugar) and about 2 grams of glucose and fructose, two other sugars. That’s a goodly amount of sugar, but not an overwhelming amount. One tablespoon has close to 1 mg of iron. The daily iron requirement for postmenopausal women and for adult men is 8 mg. (It’s 18 mg for menstruating women.) Molasses provides some, but not all, of your daily iron need. I have never tasted molasses.

Chapman Holley, said Lohan’s passport was stolen while in Cannes and she was unable to return to Los Angeles in time for Thursday’s hearing. “She did, in fact, have airline tickets,” Holley told the judge. “From our standpoint, there is a valid reason for her not being here today.” Holley said Lohan would be back in the United States by Friday evening.

The sixth annual International Festival, sponsored by the Evangelism Commission of Immaculate Heart of Mary Church, will be held from 3:30 to 7 p.m. Sunday at the church, located at 4145 Johnson St. Admission is free, but guests are asked to bring their favorite international or local family-sized dish to share. For more information, call the church at 869-7739. ty,” says Nancy Skee, one of the festival organizers. “A lot of different nationalities attend our church, and there are a lot of cultures within our community. We just got the idea that we should celebrate those differences and hopefully bring a little peace to our world as people get to know each other and appreciate each other.” Organizers have lined up 10 different groups or individuals of different nationalities to

perform, including dancers from such countries as China, Mexico, Africa, Ireland and Egypt. The Carolina Cloggers will also perform, as will competitive whistler Stanley Dalrymple of Thomasville. Ethnic foods will be served, and guests are asked to bring dishes of their own – preferably ethnic dishes – to share with others. There will also be exhibits inside the church featuring artifacts from different countries. Plenty of children’s activities will be available, too, including large inflatables, arts and crafts, and games. According to Skee, performers at the International Festival enjoy the event so much that they don’t even require pay to perform. “They expect nothing other than just the privilege of sharing,” she says. “That’s one of the things I think is so great about it.” Admission is free, except for bringing a dish to share. jtomlin@hpe.com | 888-3579

According to the American Cancer Society, about 1 man out of 6 will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in his lifetime. It is the most common form of cancer among men other than skin cancer. More than 2 million men diagnosed with prostate cancer in the United States at some point in their life are still alive today. However, survival rates depend greatly on prevention, early detection and treatment. In order to educate the community, Randolph Cancer Center will host an exclusive event for men between the ages of 40 and 70 on June 17 from 6:30 p.m. to 8 p.m. The event will be held at Randolph Cancer Center, located at 373 N. Fayetteville St. in Asheboro. Light refreshments will be provided. Dr. Daljit Caberwall, Dr. DeQuincy Lewis and Dr. Sandra Mitchell will be on hand to share their professional insight and knowledge on the latest advances in treating prostate cancer. Additionally, the staff of the Randolph Cancer Center will offer tours of the facility, including a look at the state-of-the-art linear accelerator. This machine offers advanced 3-D therapy that adjusts to reach small areas and deliver higher doses to sensitive tissues. This event is one of Randolph Hospital’s community education events offered each month to promote health and wellness. While the event is free, registration is required. For more information or to register, call Randolph Hospital at (336) 6337788 or register online at www. randolphhospital. org under the Events tab.

BRIDGE Cy the Cynic slouched into the club lounge from a Chicago game, shaking his head. “Ed just made four spades,” Cy said, “when he had four sure losers.” “He’s got talent,” I nodded. Ed is the club expert. “Talent can hit a target nobody else can hit,” Cy growled. “Ed is a genius. He can hit a target nobody else can see.” Cy showed me the deal. “How did North-South get to four spades?” I wondered. “Ed bid it,” the Cynic shrugged. “He wanted to be declarer.” When West led a trump, Ed pondered, then took the ace. “He had three hearts and a trump to lose,” Cy observed.

With some seven-point hands you might go on, but your actual hand contains two jacks that may be worthless. Pass. North dealer Both sides vulnerable

All-Star race: expensive tuneup BY GREER SMITH ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER

CONCORD – With no points on the line, Saturday night’s All-Star race could serve as something more than an all-out battle for a seven-figure first prize. Even with $1 million awaiting the winner, the weekend that begins with practice and qualifying today may also serve for some teams as a high-profile and potentially costly way to get ready for their return to Charlotte Motor Speedway for the Coca-Cola 600 next weekend. “I think everybody’s trying to get their race cars as good as they can for the 600,” Mark Martin’s crew chief Alan Gustafson said this week. Because teams had the opportunity to test at CMS in March as part of the transition from a rear wing to rear spoiler on NASCAR’s new generation car, Jimmie Johnson believes most cars will be close to the right chassis setup. “We’ve got a good idea of car needs in things like the front-end (suspension) geometry and spring package,” Johnson said. “I feel a majority of the cars will be fine tuning.” But, with the fear of losing ground in the series standings not an issue this weekend, Johnson can think of a scenario in which a team might risk throwing away a chance at the large payday in favor of developing a better package for later in the season.

“If you show up super fast and know you are in good shape (for the 600), you might have something you want to use in race conditions but are afraid to use it in a points race,” Johnson said. “A lot of what you do depends on how you run in practice. It can be a Hail Mary if you are not running good. Or it could be, we’ve got this down and we want to try something new, so let’s sacrifice this weekend.” Gustafson said this weekend can only be useful for getting ready for the 600 to a point because the longest run in race conditions during the All-Star race’s four segments is 50 laps and teams must set up for a 10-lap final sprint. “The 10-lap run is going to be what you’re more focused on than it is going to be in the 600 when you’ve obviously got to go full fuel runs,” Gustafson said. “You can’t wait for the (handling) to come like you would over a full run.” Gustafson does promise his team won’t sacrifice this weekend as it tries to snap out of a slow start to the season. “As far as I’m concerned, we’re going to go there, trying to get the fastest Chevy we can on the racetrack and try to win it,” Gustafson said. “I think that’s the key. Winning it would give you a huge boost and a lot of momentum going into the 600, as much as it would trying to get your car right.”

Conrad, Braves slam Reds with epic ninth

CHARLESTON, S.C. – The High Point University baseball team handed Charleston Southern a 15-7 loss Thursday in the opening game of the Big South series. Steve Antolik hit his fifth home run of the season in the win against his former team. Former Ledford High star Murray White IV went 5-for-5 with three runs scored for the Panthers and Jamie Serber improved to 6-2 on the season. Kyle Starnes picked up his first career save, allowing one run in three innings of relief. High Point moves to 27-27 (13-12 Big South Conference) with the win while CSU falls to 17-36 (6-18

AP

Atlanta’s Brooks Conrad (second from right) leaps at home plate as he is congratulated by teammates after hitting a walk-off grand slam to beat the Cincinnati Reds 10-9 on Thursday at Turner Field. The Braves scored seven in the ninth to prevail.

BSC). The teams will play at 2 p.m. today. “We took control of this game offensively from the fifth inning on,” said head coach Craig Cozart. White IV “Serber and Starnes minimized Charleston Southern’s offense and kept them from putting together a big inning. It was exciting to see the offensive flow come back today. We need to keep it up in the final two games of this series and in to the conference tournament. This was a great start to the series.” Serber allowed six runs in six innings with five strikeouts to pick up his sixth win of the season. It is the most wins Serber has

had in a season in his career. HPU took the lead with a fourrun fifth inning, scoring all four runs with two outs. Pablo Rosario was hit by his 23rd pitch of the season and stole second. After Mike Mercurio grounded out for the second out of the inning, moving Rosario to third, Nate Roberts worked a walk and also stole second base. Matt Gantner doubled to left center to tie the game at 4-4. Antolik came up and hit his fifth home run of the season, giving HPU a 6-4 lead. Antolik played for Charleston Southern as a freshman and this was the first time he has faced his former team. “I approached it like any other game,” Antolik said. “It was nice to come out and be successful

against my former team but I am just really glad we got the win.” Nick Chinners led off the bottom of the fifth with a solo home run to pull CSU within one, 6-5, but Serber got out of the inning with three straight outs after the shot. The Panthers took a 9-5 lead in the sixth inning. White, Drew Geissinger and Rosario had three straight singles and all came around to score, knocking Jesse Cadenhead out of the game. Roberts and Gantner both picked up RBIs in the inning. Cadenhead was tagged with the loss, falling to 5-5. Roberts was 2-3 with three RBIs and three walks to go with three stolen bases.

T

he PGA Byron Nelson Championship continues with round two today in Irving, Texas. It seems to me that Byron Nelson has to rank among the most underappreciated sports legends of all time. His name rarely pops up in the same conversation with Jones, Snead, Hogan, Nicklaus, Palmer, Player and Woods. It should. Nelson played what amounts to 12 seasons as a pro, but won 64 times – 52 on the PGA Tour and 12 others. He captured two Masters, two PGAs and the 1939 U.S. Open and

Disgraced U.S. cyclist Floyd Landis revealed new cheating allegations in a series of messages to sponsors and officials, alleging that former teammate Lance Armstrong not only joined him in doping but taught others how to beat the system and paid an official to keep a failed test quiet. Landis’ accusations prompted Armstrong to hold an impromptu press conference Thursday at the Tour of California to deny the charges. Armstrong later quit the race to go to a hospital for X-rays after crashing.

ALL-STAR RACE FACTS

ATLANTA (AP) – Brooks Conrad slowed up as he rounded first base, unsure if his drive had cleared the left field wall to give the Atlanta Braves an improbable victory. Then he saw Laynce Nix swat at his empty glove in frustration. The ball went over. Game over. Conrad hit a pinch-hit grand slam Thursday to finish off a seven-run ninth inning that gave the Atlanta Braves a 10-9 victory over the Cincinnati Reds, who fell out of first in the NL Central and can only hope the stunning loss doesn’t leave a hangover on their surprisingly strong start. “It was a horrible ending,” said Reds manager Dusty Baker, who appeared close to breaking down after the game. “Boy, that was a tough one.” The Braves put together the biggest ninth-inning comeback since Cleveland rallied from six runs down against Tampa Bay on May 25, 2009, according to STATS LLC. “I hit it and I was kind of talking to it to get out of there and I saw (Nix) jump up,” Conrad said. “From my angle ... it looked like he kind of brought it back. I put my hands no my helmet and said, ‘No way he caught that.’ ” He didn’t. “I thought I had it,” Nix said. “It just bounced out.” Atlanta fell behind 8-0 against rookie sensation Mike Leake and was still down 9-3 heading to the ninth inning.

WHO’S NEWS

earned Associated Press Male Athlete of the Years honors in 1944 and ‘45. His mark of 113 consecutive cuts made was a record for nearly 60 years until broken by Tiger Woods (who extended the record to 142). But it’s Nelson’s epic 1945 campaign that elevates him to the top tier of all-time legends. Nelson won 11 straight tournaments and 18 overall that season. Both remain single-season standards on the PGA Tour – and likely will for a long time to come. Remarkably, Nelson also finished second

seven times that season. Critics contend the fields were watered-down due to the war, but Snead, Hogan and numerous other big-name pros competed that season. Nelson consistently beat some great players. He retired the following year at the age of 34 to become a rancher. It’s easy to envision Nelson winning 80 or 90 tournaments had he played into his 40s. What he did proved plenty impressive. Nelson died in 2006 at the age of 94. He should not be forgotten.

MLB denies Yankees’ protest over Boston pitchers NEW YORK (AP) — Major League Baseball has denied the protest the New York Yankees filed this week after a loss to the Boston Red Sox. The Yankees claimed there was no evidence of an injury when Boston starter Josh Beckett was pulled in the fifth inning Tuesday night. Reliever Manny Delcarmen was given all the time he needed to get ready, rather than the standard eight warmup pitches. New York wound up losing, and Boston put Beckett on the disabled list the next day. The protest was turned down Thursday by MLB president Bob DuPuy. Yankees general manager Brian Cashman says he didn’t expect the team to win its argument. He says the protest centered on the way Beckett was removed and Delcarmen came in.

Thomas retires as a Dolphin

MIAMI (AP) — Zach Thomas has retired as a member of the Miami Dolphins. The longtime linebacker signed a ceremonial contract with the Dolphins at their training facility in Davie, Fla. on Thursday, so he could leave the game as part of the franchise he spent 12 seasons with. Only a fifth-round draft pick out of Texas Tech in 1996, Thomas became a star for the Dolphins. He was one of the faces of the franchise along with the likes of Dan Marino and Jason Taylor, who became Thomas’ brotherin-law. With Miami, Thomas had 1,038 tackles, 19 1/2 sacks and 17 interceptions in 168 games, and he was chosen for seven Pro Bowls.

Job market remains volatile WASHINGTON (AP) — The number of people filing new claims for unemployment benefits unexpectedly rose last week by the largest amount in three months. The surge is evidence of how volatile the job market remains, even as the economy grows. Applications for unemployment benefits rose to 471,000 last week, up by 25,000 from the previous week, the Labor Department said Thursday. It was the first increase in five weeks and the biggest jump since a gain of 40,000 in February. The total was the highest since new claims reached 480,000 on April 10. It also pushed the aver-

FAA proposes fine against FedEx NEW YORK (AP) — The Federal Aviation Administration on Wednesday proposed a $1.6 million civil penalty against FedEx Corp. for allegedly failing to revise its maintenance program for airplane loading containers. FAA says FedEx failed to ensure the use of approved standards, inspections and time limits for 14 cargo unit load devices used on the company’s airplanes beginning in early 2008.

Google teams up with Sony, Intel SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Google believes it has come up with the technology to unite Web surfing with channel surfing on televisions. To reach the long-elusive goal, Google has joined forces with Sony, Intel and Logitech. The companies unveiled their much-anticipated plan for a “smart” TV on Thursday during a Google conference for about 5,000 software programmers.

Sears net income falls in 1st quarter NEW YORK (AP) — Sears Holdings Corp.’s first-quarter net income fell 38 percent on thinner profit margins at its Sears chain, squeezed by heavy discounts on appliances. The discounts offset a turnaround in revenue at the retailers’ Sears and Kmart stores, breaking a long string of declines at Sears stores.

age for the last four weeks to 453,500. “Although no one expects this volatile series to go in one direction every single week, this is clearly a disappointment,” said Jennifer Lee, senior economist at BMO Capital Markets. Stocks slid at the opening bell as investors’ already bleak view of the world economy worsened with another drop in the euro and the disappointing U.S. employment news. In a separate report, a private research group said its index of leading economic indicators dipped slightly in April. It was the first decline in more than a year. Six of

the 10 components on the Conference Board’s index deteriorated. Among them: U.S. residents filed fewer applications to build homes; vendors were slower in delivering supplies to companies; the unemployed filed more claims for jobless aid; and consumers’ confidence dropped. Lawmakers responded Thursday to the persistently high jobless rate by announcing a deal to extend expanded unemployment benefits for the longterm unemployed through the end of the year. Laid off workers would also continue to get subsidies to buy health insurance through the COBRA program.

Financial regulators seek new rules WASHINGTON (AP) — The Securities and Exchange Commission is looking to craft new rules covering cancellation of trades to make it fairer and more consistent in the wake of the May 6 market plunge, the agency’s chairman told a Senate panel Thursday. Retail investors were affected by the nearly 21,000 trades that were canceled by exchanges because they were deemed erroneous following the chaos of the “flash crash,” and senators pressed at a hearing for remedies. “The rules have got to have clarity,” SEC Chairman Mary Schapiro said. “You’ve got to provide certainty up front.” The agency will put together new rules governing broken trades in the next few weeks, Schapiro

told the Senate Banking subcommittee on securities. “It’s hard for me to understand ... how any trades can be broken arbitrarily by an exchange,” said Sen. Jim Bunning, R-Ky. “That is unfair; it undermines market discipline.” Gary Gensler, chairman of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, said his agency is considering new rules governing the high-frequency traders that position their powerful computers close to the big exchanges’ data centers. The practice, called co-location, can cut the speed traders’ times by milliseconds. Gensler and Schapiro appeared at the Senate hearing two weeks after the Dow Jones industrials dropped nearly 1,000 points in less than 30 minutes.

Merkel calls for tough steps BERLIN (AP) — German Chancellor Angela Merkel urged the world’s economic powers to send a “signal of strength” by agreeing to stronger global financial regulation, as markets sagged on doubts about whether European leaders have a handle on their continent’s debt crisis. European stocks and the euro slipped, still unnerved by a unilateral German move to ban some speculative trading

practices — a step Merkel’s finance minister defended against pointed remarks by other officials that Europe needed to regulate as one. The trading-practices ban was taken by some as a sign leaders are not coordinating their efforts to shore up government finances in the 16-nation eurozone, despite agreeing on a €750 billion ($1 trillion) loan for governments in danger of defaulting on debt.

Stocks dive on global worries NEW YORK (AP) — Stocks plunged again Thursday as more investors woke up to the possibility that economic problems such as Europe’s debt crisis might spread around the world and stop the growing recovery in the U.S. The Dow Jones industrial average fell 376 points, its biggest one-day point drop since February 2009, and all the major indexes were down well over than 3 percent. Meanwhile, interest rates fell sharply in the Treasury market as investors once again sought the safety of U.S. government debt. With Thursday’s drop, the Standard & Poor’s 500 index, considered the best indicator of the stock market’s performance, is down almost 12 percent from its 2010 high close of 1,217.28, reached April 23. That means the market is officially in what’s called a correction, a drop of 10 percent or more from a recent high. This is the first correction since stock indexes hit 12-year lows in March last year. The fact it has occurred in just 19 trading days shows how anxious traders are right now. The Dow fell 376.36, or 3.6 percent, to 10,068.01. The S&P 500 fell 43.46, or 3.9 percent, to 1,071.59. The Nasdaq composite index fell 94.36, or 4.1 percent, to 2,204.01. At the New York Stock Exchange, only 153 stocks rose compared with 2,994 that fell. Volume came to a heavy 2.1 billion shares. The market got some confirmation from a Federal Reserve official that Europe’s problems could be a “potentially serious setback.”

Travelers can expect cheaper holiday gas NEW YORK (AP) – Memorial Day travelers should get a gift at the gas pump as they head out for the holiday weekend. Gasoline prices dropped Thursday for the second week in a row, and they’ll be pushed even lower as oil prices continue to tumble. Futures contracts for oil and other energy commodities slumped as financial troubles in Europe and weak jobs numbers in the U.S. forced a sell-off on Wall Street. Benchmark oil, gasoline, heating oil and Brent crude all plunged more than 3 percent by midday. Crude for June delivery dropped $1.87 to $68.00 a barrel on the contract’s final trading day on the New York Mercantile Exchange. Most of the trad-

ing has moved to the July contract, which lost $1.86 at $70.62 a barrel. Prices fell even after Platts, the energy information arm of McGraw-Hill Cos., reported that Chinese oil demand grew in April by nearly 13 percent. “People are saying it’s time to get out,” said Michael Lynch, president of Strategic Energy & Economic Research. Earlier this year, Lynch stood out from many of his peers by predicting that oil prices would fall. “The market has gotten way ahead of itself,” Lynch said. “People kept saying that soon demand will go up and inventories will go down. But that’s not happening.” Traders started getting nervous as the debt crisis unfolded in Europe. U.S.

government data showing that Americans continue to have a relatively weak appetite for fuel have sunk energy prices even further. An EIA report on Thursday added to those concerns, showing that the country’s stockpile of natural gas has ballooned to nearly 17 percent more than the five-year average. If the world doesn’t start sopping up excess supplies, oil prices may fall into the $40-per-barrel range this year, Lynch said. At the pump, retail gasoline prices dropped 1.2 cents overnight to a new national average of $2.84 a gallon, according to AAA, Wright Express and Oil Price Information Service.

Lawmakers: Toyota failed to probe electronics WASHINGTON (AP) – Toyota never asked its outside consultants to determine the cause behind the sudden acceleration of its vehicles, despite public statements the Japanese car company made to reassure consumers, lawmakers charged on Thursday. Rep. Henry Waxman, who chairs the House committee investigating Toyota’s massive recalls, accused the automaker of asking its lawyers to hire a consulting firm, Expo-

nent Inc., whose mission was “to obfuscate and to find no problems.” “Toyota has repeatedly told the public that it has conducted extensive testing of its vehicles for electronic defects. We can find no basis for these assertions,” said Waxman, D-Calif. “Toyota’s assertions may be good public relations, but they don’t appear to be true.” Toyota has said it has no evidence that electronics are to blame for the sudden acceleration reports,

and the problems are mechanical issues addressed by its recall of more than 8 million vehicles worldwide. The House Energy and Commerce Committee is reviewing complaints of electronic problems in Toyota vehicles. Waxman said a contract between Toyota’s litigation defense counsel and Exponent was for “engineering consulting services related to class actions filed against Toyota.”

FEMA offers insurance rate cuts under remapping EAST ST. LOUIS, Ill. (AP) – Property owners across the country fearing they may be forced to buy expensive flood insurance under a push to draw up new floodplain maps will catch a break by being offered the coverage at sharply lower rates for two years, a key lawmaker said. Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois said the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s decision to offer the cheaper rates on properties affected by

changes to flood hazard maps dramatically softens the financial blow for southwestern Illinois and other affected regions – at least for now. FEMA has agreed to offer up to two years’ eligibility for the National Flood Insurance Program’s Preferred Risk Policy – the program’s lowest-cost option – to small businesses and homeowners on any land the new maps show are in newly designated special flood hazard areas. The

new rates are available after the redrawn maps take effect, in many cases this fall or early next year. The savings could be big: An affected homeowner’s yearly premium under the preferred risk program might be $300 – four to five times less than what it might cost otherwise, Les Sterman, an administrator of a flood-protection district involving three St. Louis-area Illinois counties, said Thursday.
