JAMESTOWN – The future of the 200-year-old Potter House has changed. The house at 211 W. Main St., which housed a saddle and harness shop and was damaged by fire in 2002, has been moved to a nearby site. A crew from the D.H. Griffin Wrecking Co. began dismantling the house last week. Developers sought a business zoning to put a new Bojangles restaurant on the 7-acre site, but some neighbors complained. Jamestown Town Council denied the business rezoning this week. George Ragsdale with Ragsdale Brothers LLC, told council the property will be put up for sale. “The town needs to look at the zoning to see what is appropriate for the site,” Will Ragsdale, a council member, said Friday. The planning board voted in March to approve the plan to replace the building. George Ragsdale earlier said the proj-

Airport to update master plan for future BY PAUL B. JOHNSON ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

GREENSBORO – Piedmont Triad International Airport officials want to consider the facility’s future needs for decades to come now that an expansion to the airport is nearly complete. PTIA leaders are launching the first update to the airport’s master plan in 16 years. The initial step will be a public workshop on the draft of the master plan update from 5:30 to 8 p.m. Tuesday at the Airport Marriott. Anyone attending the workshop may view maps of the airport area and learn details of the master plan from consultants. The update will assess needs during a 20-year planning period, as well as potential land needs over a 30to 50-year period. The master plan will include projections about where PTIA envisions future land purchases, said PTIA Executive Director Ted Johnson. The airport now covers 3,925 acres.

Pictured is the new fire department at Piedmont Triad International Airport, which is under construction. The last airport master plan was updated in 1994. Airport officials were planning a revision in 1997 or 1998, but that was when FedEx Corp. announced it would make PTIA the home of its latest national cargo hub. Johnson said airport leaders have had a master plan update on hold since the FedEx announcement in April 1998. Now that the FedEx

hub and new runway are open, Johnson said, airport officials believe it’s time to proceed with revisions to the master plan. City of High Point Planning Director Lee Burnette said the “plan will guide us on how to shape growth in that vicinity.” The city already has long-use plans for north High Point based in part on activities at PTIA. “We may need to make

some adjustments based on the airport master plan,” Burnette said. The airport authority should vote on the final version of master plan in the late summer to early fall after it considers public comments, Johnson said. The master plan update will cost from $1.1 million to $1.2 million, with the Federal Aviation Administration providing a 95 percent match of the

Perdue tours NC Marine base’s green initiative

CAMP LEJEUNE (AP) – North Carolina Gov. Beverly Perdue said Thursday a solar thermal energy project at Camp Lejeune, soon to be among the largest in the country, further demonstrates the state’s commitment to renewable energy. Perdue visited a community where new solar thermal panels are being installed on 900 homes. The solar panels are expected to provide nearly 75 percent of the energy needed to heat each home’s water but at a lower monthly cost than traditional fossil

fuels. When completed, officials say it will be the largest residential solar thermal energy project in the continental United States. The governor said she and others decided three years ago that North Carolina should lead in the use of renewable energy. “There were a lot of people who said, ’No, you can’t,’ Perdue said at a news conference. “Some of us were smart enough to say, ’Well, we’ve got the sun.”’ Construction, which started last November, is expected to be completed at the end of the

year. It consists of solar panels that collect energy from the sun and transfer the heat to hot water tanks. The panels will be installed on the roofs of hundreds of rental homes owned by Atlantic Marine Corps Communities at the base. Asheville-based solar energy company FLS Energy is shouldering half of the $6 million cost to install the equipment, said Brownie Newman, project finance director at FLS. Bank of America is paying the other half and is co-owner of the equipment, he said.

In exchange for the energy company’s investment, AMCC will pay FLS Energy for the hot water in a similar way a traditional energy provider would be paid, except the costs will be less, Newman said. Since solar thermal energy costs less to create than electricity generated by traditional fossil fuels like coal, a resident’s hot water bill will be cheaper in the long run if they convert to solar thermal energy, he said. However, the initial costs to install solar equipment can be as high as $7,000 per house.

Arts agencies campaign for more funding BY DAVID NIVENS ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

GUILFORD COUNTY – The campaign to persuade commissioners to restore arts funding has not bypassed High Point. Leaders of the High Point Area Arts Council have taken every opportunity to show the Guilford County Board of Commissioners the value of the arts. Last year, Guilford County gave $100,000 to the United Arts Council of Greater Greensboro and $75,000 to the High Point Area Arts Council, but the proposed 2011 budget calls for $33,333 to Greensboro and $25,000 to High Point as part of a $17.2 million budget cut. For arts boosters, the

At $102 per day, visitors attending arts events spend about twice what a normal traveler spends, Joe Gray, another arts council leader, told commissioners earlier this month. The 2010 Southeast Regional Ballet Association in High Point generated 1,200 visitors and had an estimated economic impact to area businesses, restaurants and hotels of about $600,000. “Please don’t look at the arts as an expense,” he said. The Triad has 30,000 people involved in the “creative” industries of writing, design, perform-

value comes in actual programs and economic development. Pam Anderson, chairwoman of the High Point Area Arts Council, pointed this week to the value of summer arts programs for children. “Many of our programs provide mentors for children,” she said during a Thursday meeting. Debbie Lumpkins, executive director of the arts council, links creativity to work-force development. More funding for the arts would improve quality of life in Guilford County, lead to economic growth and enhance the county’s workforce preparedness by developing a creative work force, she has said several times. “The arts have helped

Each donation is reduced by one-third over three years. Commissioners have discussed the possibility of moving arts groups from the nonprofit community group list to economic development as a way to stabilize funding. dnivens@hpe.com | 888-3626

The Guilford County Board of Commissioners will discuss budget topics again June 3 as they work to approve a 2011 budget by June 30. Arts and library funding still remain unresolved. Democratic Commissioners Paul Gibson and John Parks of High Point, both at-large representatives, have pushed for a detailed review. “I want to hear if we

have a consensus on these things,” Gibson said Thursday, “and how we can pay for it and if we need a tax increase.” “We have a pretty long list to look at,” Parks said during a meeting in which just three speakers voiced support for the proposed cutbacks to avoid a tax hike. Gibson, Parks and Democratic Commissioner Kirk Perkins wore badges reading “Arts Create Jobs” during a Thursday commissioners meeting. Gibson also wore a “Library Supporter” sticker

ACCURACY...

1,000 people have voiced support for the library, a town resident told commissioners on Thursday. Just half of Gibsonville residents live in Guilford County. Four neighboring towns own the library property. Meanwhile, several people told commissioners this month they think it would be unfair if Greensboro was forced to charge out-of-town library users a fee to replace the county’s donation.

HIGH POINT – Retired High Point University political science professor James Corey hopes the second time is the ticket as he seeks a seat on the City Council. Corey announced Friday he will make another bid for the Ward 6 seat in north High Point. In his first campaign for public office, Corey lost in 2008 general election to Ward 6 Councilman John Faircloth, who will vacate the seat later this year to become a Republican state representative. City voters will go to the polls in the Nov. 2 general election to pick the mayor and council members from six wards and the two at-large seats. The new council takes the oath of office in early December. Filing by candidates takes place July 2-16. Corey, a U.S. Navy veteran, has been attending City Council meetings diligently for the past two years. He believes he learned lessons from his first campaign that will help propel him to victory this time. Corey, 71, will campaign on a platform that

Moms leave Iran, but Americans not freed from jail

Car bomb kills 23 near Baghdad BAGHDAD (AP) – A car bomb exploded Friday at an open-air market crowded with shoppers in a Shiite town northeast of Baghdad, killing 23 people and wounding more than 50, Iraqi police and hospital officials said. The bombing struck the town of Khalis, a Shiite enclave 50 miles north of Baghdad surrounded by the largely Sunni province of Diyala. It is a former alQaida in Iraq stronghold that has seen several powerful blasts, one a twin bombing on a restaurant in March that killed 57. Most of those killed Friday were sitting in a cafe in the center of the market that was reduced to rubble.

TEHRAN, Iran (AP) – The mothers of three Americans jailed in Iran for 10 months left for home Friday, getting one last chance to embrace their children but failing to secure their immediate release. In a glimmer of hope, Iran announced that two of its nationals held in Iraq by U.S. forces for years were freed Friday. The release raised the possibility that a behind-the-scenes swap was in the offing or that their release was a gesture of goodwill in an attempt to AP free the Americans. The Iranians’ release Nora Shourd (right), mother of Sarah Shourd, Cindy Hickey (left), mother of Shane Bauer, and Laura Fattal (center left), mother of Josh Fattal, arrive at the Imam “may have some diplomatic effect on this case,” Khomeini airport outside Tehran, to leave Iran, on Friday.

the Americans’ lawyer, Masoud Shafii, told The Associated Press. The U.S. has said it is not offering a direct swap, and Iranian officials made no public connection between the freed Iranians and the Americans. Sarah Shourd, 31, her boyfriend Shane Bauer, 27, and Josh Fattal, 27, were arrested in July along the Iran-Iraq border, and Iran has accused them of espionage. Their families say the three were simply hiking in Iraq’s largely peaceful mountainous northern Kurdish region and that if they crossed the border, it was accidental.

Embassy caterer among 6 arrested in NY bomb plot

In a statement on its website, the U.S. Embassy warned that the catering company was suspected of ties to terrorist groups and said American diplomats had been instructed to stop using the firm.

Like Faisal Shahzad, the Pakistani-American accused in the failed New York bombing, the six Pakistani detainees were all members of their country’s urban elite, including several who were educated in the United States. One was a former army major. The suspects were a loose network motivated by hatred of America and the West, the Pakistani official told The Associated Press. He spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitive nature of the investigation.

The News & Observer of Raleigh, May 18 Parents of children attending North Carolina’s schools for the deaf and blind commendably got the attention of state lawmakers, and it now appears some funding losses for those three schools will be restored. The parents say that a shorter work week brought about by state budget cuts has disrupted class time for their children and made the day unpredictable, thus hurting the students’ ability to concentrate. Martin Nesbitt, Senate majority leader and a Democrat from Asheville, said lawmakers might not go along with Gov. Beverly Perdue’s budget plan to save money by making the staffs’ shorter work week permanent. There’s no reason to think the governor was being insensitive, but the budget-cutting process occasionally results in collateral damage best avoided. This is a lesson in the power that organized citizens sometimes can have if they get involved in the budgeting process. And the Eastern North Carolina School for the Deaf (Wilson), the N.C. School for the Deaf in Morganton and the Governor Morehead School for the Blind in Raleigh have thousands of loyal alumni families who can testify to the difference the schools made for handicapped children. It’s true that with many such kids enrolled in regular public schools, there has been an ongoing discussion of what role these institutions should play in the future. Fair enough. But these schools have had a strong record of remarkable success, and their existence reflects an enlightened view of providing equal opportunity for all on the part of the state. In addition, not all students “mainstream” as well as might be hoped. One parent involved in this effort felt that her son was isolated in a traditional public school because he was not able to participate in recreational activities with others, for example. Considering the pressures public school teachers are under, it’s easy to see how that could happen without intent. For that child, the special schools were a great option. The state should keep that option open. This episode also is a reminder that other vulnerable people may not have vocal and effective representatives. As legislators make hard budget decisions, they must be the champions of those who necessarily look to the government for protection and relief.

The National Council for a new America won’t be missed

id you hear that the National Council for A New America has been suspended? You know, the National Council for A New America. ... Yeah, the National Council for A New America. Never heard of it? Little foggy on what it is and why it was formed? Well, I’m glad you asked. The National Council for A New America is the name of the “let’s fight President Barack Obama on everything” project that was formed by Minority Whip Eric Cantor of Virginia in April 2009. Virginia’s Republican representative in the House of Representatives, Cantor, envisioned the organization to be a forum for town hall meetings. There was one meeting in a crowded pizza parlor on May 2, 2009. Former Republican Gov. Mitt Romney of Massachusetts, former Republican Gov. Jeb Bush of Florida and Cantor were available to discuss policy and answer questions. There never has been a second meeting. The National Council for A New America is defunct ... null and void. ... Dead. That’s what happens when you have poor ideas and you rush to the nearest TV camera to put those poor ideas into the public arena. Republicans like to refer to the National Council for A New America as “suspended.” Cantor’s aides say the suspension is due to attacks from the Democratic Party. The attacks became overwhelming to the whip, John Murray is quoted to have said. It sounds like Cantor can give it, but he can’t take it. His negativity toward President Obama and the Democratic Party has been relentless from the moment Obama began campaigning for the

country’s highest office. Cantor was not able to do events outside of the Beltway. Who would have “thunk” it? His futile attempt at rebranding the Republican Party failed miserably because he was too busy staying in Washington. Jennifer OPINION Crider, spokeswoman for the Democratic Congressional CamSondra paign Committee said the organiFoy zation lacked credibility. Since ■■■ ethics watchdog organization, CREW, filed a complaint with the Office of Congressional Ethics in July 2009 citing ethics violations, the organization has gone into “suspension.” The complaint alleges that the organization used House resources and campaign dollars for funding. Rules prohibit the mixing of these two funding resources. So, now the National Council for A New America is no longer a major focus in Cantor’s office. Some things learned are being incorporated into a new project being led by Chief Deputy Minority Whip Kevin McCarthy, a Republican from California. That project’s name: “Commitment to America.” This project is an attempt by the Republican Party to craft a legislative agenda that can partly be used in the Republican national campaign. Oh well, here we go again. Source: Roll Call, The Newspaper of Capitol Hill since 1955; www.rollcall.com SONDRA FOY lives in High Point and is the Christian mother of three sons.

Pagan altar found in Israel

JERUSALEM (AP) – Israeli archaeologists say workers have uncovered an ancient pagan altar while clearing ground for construction of a hotly disputed hospital emergency room. They say the discovery proves an ancient cemetery at the site that has been at the center of protests by ultra-Orthodox Jews does not contain the graves of Jews. Protesters claim an emergency room extension at Barzilai Hospital in the city of Ashkelon is being built on an ancient Jewish cemetery.

Hatred Stirs Up Dissension, but Love Covers All Wrongs. Proverbs 10:12

512 N. Main St. High Point 540226©HPE

There is an instructive metaphor that compares lashing out in anger to picking up hot coals to throw at your enemies. In so doing, you may hurt your enemy, but you will almost certainly hurt yourself in the process. Anger is like that. It often hurts the person harboring it more than the person toward whom it is directed. All of the negative feelings and resentments associated with anger are as likely to damage the angry person as they are to hurt the one they lash out against. Nelson Mandela has remarked, in this vein, that "Resentment is like drinking poison and hoping that it will kill your enemies." Anger is sometimes justified, but more often than not it is a sign of our selfishness and egotistic peevishness. So, we should try to let go of our anger and resentment and resist the urge to pick up those hot coals. We will save ourselves a lot of pain and frustration.

Summertime is youth camp time I was going to my first summer camp. It was a 4-H camp and I was 10 years old. For the next 52 years, I was in a camp. I went to youth camp, some summers as many as four of them, as a camper until I was 14 when I became SHARING a junior leader. At 18, I THE SPIRIT became an assistant to the camp director. By the Bill time I was 19, I was a fullEllis blown camp counselor, athletic director, shouldering more responsibilities. Those 4-H camps and church youth camps did much to shape the direction of my life. I came under the influence of brilliant scholars, teachers and counselors who were valuable mentors for me in every area of life.

BC. To put that in perspective, in that year the Temple which Solomon built was still standing, Judah (the southern kingdom as described in I & II Kings) was still in control of southern Israel, and Jerusalem would not be defeated by the Babylonians for another 15 years. And so what was written on Ketef Hinnom II? â&#x20AC;&#x153;May he [or she] be blessed by Yahweh, the warrior [or helper] and the rebuker of [e]vil. May Yahweh bless you, keep you. May Yahweh make his face shine upon you and grant you p[ea]ce.â&#x20AC;? The second and third sentences are a shortened form of what is known as the High Priestly Prayer found in Numbers 6:2426. The brackets mean that part was missing or added to make sense. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Yahwehâ&#x20AC;? is the name for God which He gave to Moses. So there you have it.

A look at the earliest Scripture we have

rchaeologists search for evidence of past civilizations. Most times, the discoveries add new understandings of those past civilizations. Biblical archaeologists work in a somewhat different way. They also look for evidence of how early Jewish and Christian communities lived. But they have an advantage because the Bible contains so much history of these communities. Often a discovery is made of something described in the Bible. This article summarizes one of these discoveries: the earliest known fragment of Scripture that we have. But first about fragments of Scripture. Frequently early Jewish and Christian communities wrote on parchment. Parchment is the skins of animals. The skin would be prepared in part by scraping it so that it would produce a writeable surface. But as you can imagine, these do have a â&#x20AC;&#x153;self lifeâ&#x20AC;? and will disintegrate over time. Archaeologists of truly ancient civilizations have discovered writing on stone and on pottery. Obviously, both of those will last practically forever, as long as they are not broken or crushed. But the earliest known fragment of Scripture is not on parchment, stone, or pottery. Instead it was etched by hand onto a piece of flattened silver. When discovered, the piece of silver, which measures about one inch and a half by a half inch, was rolled up like a tiny scroll. Some scholars believe that a string could be run through the â&#x20AC;&#x153;scrollâ&#x20AC;? and worn as a necklace. But the fact that it was rolled like a scroll caused problems. A little about the discovery of the â&#x20AC;&#x153;scroll,â&#x20AC;? which is referred to as an amulet. In 1979, an archaeologist and some students were digging in burial caves located between Jerusalem and Bethlehem (a distance of about 12 miles). These caves had been excavated and even looted over the centuries, and so they did not expect new discover-

very time I pick up a newspaper, there seems to be at least one story about young people and youth camps that begin as soon as school is out and continue until school begins again. I have had the privilege of being involved in such camps in many parts of the world. I read today about the YMCA camp in our area. The YWCA will have camps just as the Salvation Army will and most every church and religious group. There are, of course, sports camps of every description, canoe camps, bicycle camps, band camps, music camps, cheerleading camps, science camps, math camps and always Boy Scouts camps and Girl Scouts camps. The important thing about all these camps is that hundreds of thousands of young people of all ages, from the very young through the teen years, will be in the camps which will staffed by thousands of professional and volunteer men and women. You must have directors, cooks, counselors, special projects and class instructors, lifeguards, nurses and speakers who effectively address needs of the campers. My fourth-grade year was over and

ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

GUILFORD COUNTY – American Express has chosen Guilford County as the location to build its new data center. Guilford County commissioners said American Express chose to build the data center in the eastern portion of the county without any incentives, which are usually offered to projects of this magnitude. The company wouldn’t comment on why it chose Guilford County without an incentives package. It also was considering

Des Moines, Iowa, as a location to build the center. The data center will cost about $400 million and could employ up to 150 people. American Express currently operates a Greensboro call center that employs 2,000 people. It also closed a business travel office in High Point, located at 4050 Piedmont Parkway in Mendenhall Business Park, last year and laid off 100 workers. According to WXII, County Commissioner Paul Gibson said he thinks the company is building the data center in Greensboro without incentives because it’s a good business location. In a statement Thursday, Gov. Beverly Perdue said, “The decision today by American Express is great news for Guilford County and for North Carolina. With 2,000 North Carolinians already employed by AmEx, we welcome this expansion.”

HIGH POINT – The graduation attire worn by High Point Christian Academy’s class of 2010 Friday night didn’t look out of the ordinary except for two charms dangling from their caps and necks. Each of the 51 students who graduated that night wore a silver fish charm in memory of Jacob Nance, an avid fisherman. A music note charm also was worn for Justin Simmons, who loved to play the guitar. Nance and Simmons, both 17, were seniors at HPCA who died April 30 in a two-car accident on Phillips Avenue, about three weeks before they were set to graduate. Held at Green Street Baptist Church, the church that founded the

Cliff presented diplomas to the Nance and Simmons families in honor of their sons. “It’s been a process of trying to strike a balance between honoring the boys and celebrating tonight for the graduates,” Cliff said. “The parents (of Nance and Simmons) contacted us and said they wanted this to be a

night of celebration.” Of the 51 graduates, 18 of them attended the school since kindergarten. Co-valedictorian Preston Ford spoke of old memories in his address to fellow graduates like homecomings, proms and performing mission work on the senior class trip. He also spoke of newer memories, like losing Nance and Simmons and learning to move forward. “In our memories, of course, will be two of our classmates – Jacob Nance and Justin Simmons

– always,” Ford said. “They’ll be in our hearts. Their memories will live with us forever.” Austin Gentry, also co-valedictorian, encouraged students to continue to grow in their faith in God as they sought out success in future careers. “We know the place that has been the most successful, and that’s at the foot of the cross,” Gentry said. “Let’s travel the road to success – the road to Calvary.” As the students, with acceptance letters from institutions like the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and Boston University, walked across the stage to receive their diplomas, the charms symbolizing the lives of Nance and Simmons bounced across the stage with them. phaynes@hpe.com | 888-3617

2 killed in collision with bus BY PAT KIMBROUGH ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

GUILFORD COUNTY – A woman and her husband were killed when their minivan collided with a tour bus at a southern Guilford County intersection Thursday night. Marie Carter Vest, 73, of Tuttle Road, Archdale, died at the scene of the crash, which occurred just before 7:30 p.m. at Penman Road and N.C. 62, according to the N.C. State Highway Patrol. Vest was a front-seat passenger in a Honda Odyssey driven by her husband, Everette Vest,

Investigators determined that the impact was not a direct head-on collision but occurred on the left front portion of the minivan. “Basically, that tells me this was something they never even really saw,” Ingram said. The scene is just west of a new stretch of the U.S. 311 Bypass that is under construction and just east of Interstate 85. It’s about two miles east of the High Point city limits. pkimbrough@hpe.com | 888-3531

Noted runner charged in mortgage fraud scheme MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

GREENSBORO – Local ultra-marathon runner Charlie Engle was arrested Thursday evening on a variety of charges stemming from a mortgage fraud scheme. Engle, 47, of Greensboro is accused of making false statements on mortgage loan applications to purchase two properties in Cape Charles, Va., according to a federal indictment. Engle allegedly inflated his income on these applications so that he could qualify for mortgages, according to a news release from the U.S. Attorney’s Office in the Eastern District of Virginia. The indictment further alleges that Engle submitted letters from friends falsely verifying his income and employment to qualify for these loans. After completing the initial purchases, Engle allegedly was able to withdraw over $140,000 in equity from these properties through second mortgages and refinancing the properties. Ultimately, the properties were foreclosed upon and the respective financial institutions suffered losses exceeding $400,000, according to the news release.

In this February photo, Greg Taylor reacts as hears the decision of the N.C. Innocence Commission exonerating him of murder charges as his attorney Christine Mumma sits next to him.

Perdue pardons man absolved in murder case RALEIGH (AP) – North Carolina Gov. Beverly Perdue granted a pardon on Friday to a man absolved of a murder conviction in the first case of its kind in the country. Perdue pardoned Greg Taylor after learning the results of DNA tests done by Raleigh police on clothes Taylor had worn the night of the 1991 killing of Jacquetta Thomas, for which he spent almost 17 years in prison. “This should put the matter to rest,” Taylor told The Associated Press. “Now I hope the (Raleigh) Police Department puts this matter to rest and starts looking forward as to who actually committed this crime.” Taylor already had plans to celebrate his daughter’s 27th birthday on Friday night. He hadn’t been able to celebrate her birthday in freedom since she was 9 years old. Taylor was exonerated of Thomas’ murder

in February by three judges who heard the case as a result of the work of the North Carolina Innocence Inquiry Commission, the only panel of its kind in the country. Perdue had delayed issuing an official pardon, saying she wanted to see more evidence. On Friday morning, she learned the results of the DNA tests on Taylor’s clothing. “To make sure there was no doubt cast on her decision, she wanted to wait for the results,” Perdue spokeswoman Chrissy Pearson said. “It was the final piece she was waiting for.” Found innocent of the crime, Taylor is now eligible for $750,000 in compensation payments from the state Industrial Commission thanks to the pardon. Chris Mumma, an attorney for Taylor, said it was a big relief even though Taylor knew the DNA testing would come back with no connection to him.

New job start delayed for mental health advocate RALEIGH (AP) – An advocate for the mentally ill hired to a key North Carolina health department post won’t start working as planned as government officials review details on tax problems at the group he ran. Health and Human Services Department spokeswoman Renee McCoy said on Friday that John Tote won’t report to work as scheduled on Monday to become the next state mental health director.

Tote was executive director of the Mental Health Association in North Carolina. Records at the North Carolina Secretary of State’s office show federal tax liens of nearly $1.5 million since 2006 stemming from the association’s unpaid payroll taxes. Tote declined comment Friday. McCoy said department Secretary Lanier Cansler knew of the tax issues but not to the extent that has been revealed.

Kamenshek, player portrayed in ‘A League of their Own’, dies ROCKFORD, Ill. (AP) – A former star of the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League who helped inspire the lead character in the movie “A League of their Own” has died. The Riverside County (Calif.) coroner said Friday that Dorothy

Kamenshek died of natural causes Monday at her home in Palm Desert, Calif. She was 84. Kamenshek played for the Rockford Peaches from 1943 to 1953. The left-handed infielder was named in the top 100 female athletes of the century by

Sports Illustrated. The Ohio native, who also went by the names Dottie and Kammie, was among the players who were the basis for Dottie Hinson, a character played by Geena Davis in the 1992 movie about women’s professional baseball in the 1940s.

ADVICE THE HIGH POINT ENTERPRISE SATURDAY, MAY 22, 2010 www.hpe.com

Majestic iris makes ideal garden plant and gold beards which are the fuzzy looking hairlike parts on each of the ECOLOGY falls. They Gwyn report the Riddick cultivar â&#x2013; â&#x2013; â&#x2013; â&#x2013; â&#x2013; â&#x2013; has outstanding garden performance and grows well in sunny locations in our climate zone. If you try to grow any of these irises in shade they will promptly quit blooming. Light shade for several hours is OK. They should be planted in areas with well-drained soils or in raised beds, otherwise the rhizomes will rot. Most German iris form fan-shaped clumps of semi-evergreen swordlike leaves that reach 18 to 24 inches in height while flower stalks can grow to 2 to 3 feet, making them great for cutting for vases. Bearded iris is drought tolerant and resistant to deer and rabbit feeding.

Even though the plants are susceptible to various insects and fungi, they are very hardy and are not overly affected except by the iris borer. The population of these borers can be decreased by removing and destroying all plant debris around the plants in the autumn. The rhizomes should be planted so that the top one-third of the rhizome is exposed above the ground for best growth and vigor. They like a neutral acidity with pH 6.0-7.0 so some limestone must be added to our native soils. According to Schreinerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Iris Gardens, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iris need to be thinned or divided before they become overcrowded, generally every three to four years. If Iris are allowed to become too crowded the bloom will suffer, some varieties may crowd others out and disease problems may be aggravated. Old clumps may be thinned by removing the old divisions at the centers of the clumps and leaving new growth in

the ground. Or, you may dig up the entire clump and remove and replant the large new rhizomes.â&#x20AC;? The best time to plant is July through September. After growing bearded iris for over 80 years, Schreinerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Gardens (www.schreinersgardens.com) has developed hundreds of color combinations and named varieties. One striking variety, Jamaican Dreamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; is described in their catalog this way: Saffron yellow standards sharply contrast the heliotrope purple of its falls, as depicted in our photo. Note the medial stripe that extends from the beard to the bottom of each fall. Its strong stem produces three to four branches with double-socketed buds. This enchanter will bring the warm lure of a Caribbean holiday to your garden each spring.â&#x20AC;? With their ease of growth, colorful petal combinations and cutflower versatility, irises can be ideal perennials for your garden.

Coupleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s polar politics threaten respect over my feelings every single time. I give every guy the benefit of the doubt, ADVICE and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m the one Dear who is alAbby ways disâ&#x2013; â&#x2013; â&#x2013; appointed! At 29, I am contemplating life with eight cats and a set of knitting needles because I have finally had it with dating. Arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t there any men who actually mean what they say anymore? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Stephanie in Houston Dear Stephanie: Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m tempted to say no, that all the good ones are married off â&#x20AC;&#x201C; but it wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be true. So hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m recommending: Start asking your friends of both sexes what you may be doing to attract men who hurt you or flake out. When a woman is repeatedly hurt because she gives every guy â&#x20AC;&#x153;the benefit of the doubt,â&#x20AC;? itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s because sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s attracting the wrong people. Dear Abby: A few years ago my husband and I took in a family memberâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s infant daughter until a time when her mother could get back on her feet. That time never came, and we went through the process of adoption. We have been a happy family ever since.

I am now pregnant for the first time. Several friends and relatives have offered to throw us a shower. I am unsure of the proper etiquette since this is our second child (but our first biological child). My husband and I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to seem to be asking for anything, especially if having a shower for a second baby is considered improper. But we have never had a chance to experience the fun side of a pregnancy. I would appreciate your thoughts. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; First-time Pregnant, Second-time Mom Dear First-time Pregnant: I see no reason why there shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be a shower for your baby. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lovely way to celebrate the new life you are bringing into the world. However, according to Emily Post: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Mothers and sisters of the mother-to-be should NOT give the shower. Naturally, mothers and sisters should be invited, but as with any other gift- giving event, they should not initiate an invitation that bears an obligation on the part of the recipient to provide a present to direct relatives.â&#x20AC;?

Dear Riding A Seesaw: Begin by accepting that not all couples are in lockstep when it comes to their political beliefs. It is easier when you have respect for each other in other areas of your relationship. Then remember that when it comes to voting, individuals are not joined at the hip. And if that doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t work, follow the example set by James Carville and Mary Matalin, a high-profile, politically disparate couple whose differences havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t driven them apart.

an a flower be elegant, delicate and majestic all at once? I would say â&#x20AC;&#x153;yes,â&#x20AC;? and I would be talking about German Iris, also known as Bearded Iris. Right now is mid-season for many of the blooming varieties. My landscape sports about 14 different colors; but there are hundreds of cultivars available and almost as many color combinations. German Iris has been grown for hundreds of years but breeders are continuing to develop exciting new hybrids with unusual, striking color combinations. Bearded iris have three petals that grow upward and are called â&#x20AC;&#x153;standardsâ&#x20AC;?; and three petals that grow downward which are called â&#x20AC;&#x153;falls.â&#x20AC;? Many varieties are also fragrant. One of the foremost iris breeders is Schreinerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s iris Gardens in Salem, Ore. This year, they introduced Fall Fiestas, which is a uniquely colored iris with ruffled, amber-tan falls whit white standards

TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES

In a recent column I noted that “rule of thumb” comes from an old law that forbade a husband from beating his wife with any instrument wider than his thumb. Now I read that the term originated from brewers dipping a thumb into a mixture to test its temperature. Both tales may be spurious, but any bridge “rule of thumb” is suspect. Today’s West led the seven of spades against 3NT: deuce, king, ace. South then led a heart, and East took the ace and returned a spade. West played low to keep communication.

LAST SPADE

South won a diamond finesse with his jack, but when he led a club next, East won and led his last spade. West ran the spades for down one. “I could hold up my ace of spades twice,” South said, “but the rule is to avoid a hold-up play that costs a trick.” South’s play gets a thumbs down. West probably has five spades, and East’s opening bid marks him with the missing aces, so South should hold up. He doesn’t need two spade tricks but mustn’t

Saturday, May 22, 2010 CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Apolo Anton Ohno, 28; Ginnifer Goodwin, 32; Naomi Campbell, 40; Morrissey, 51 HAPPY BIRTHDAY: Aggressive action may be required regarding financial matters. If you focus on the gains to be made without jeopardizing what you already have, this will be a winning year. Don’t let your emotions take over or cause you to bail out someone who doesn’t deserve your help. This year, it’s every man for himself and that includes you. Your numbers are 1, 6, 13, 20, 22, 35, 41 ARIES (March 21-April 19): Do your research. Diplomacy will help you do what needs to be done without disrupting your relationships. A change in your personal life is probably overdue. ★★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You can make a difference in your community and to your friends and neighbors if you resolve issues and fight for the rights of the people you care about. Love is in the stars. ★★★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Don’t fold under pressure. Instead, do what’s expected of you and you will avoid criticism or complaints. A change of plans will cause some emotional upset but, as long as you are willing to carry on alone, you will not suffer a loss and will probably get more out of the experience you have. ★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): You will get far more done at home if you enlist the help of family or friends. A change is heading your way and should enhance your relationships as well as your surroundings. You can improve your associations if you discuss problems. ★★★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Impulsive acts will cause problems from an oversight on your part. Make your plans carefully. Delays and frustrations will result while traveling or when dealing with people trying to add to your responsibilities. ★★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Shake things up a bit by visiting places that will take your mind off pressing matters. Distance yourself from stressful situations in order to get a different perspective. Emotional and financial issues can be expected but avoid impulsive action. ★★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Take the initiative to do what needs to be done without asking for help. Property purchases, changing your residence or even moving your furniture around will help you feel better about your surroundings and your future. ★★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): If you need something, call in a favor. You can accomplish a lot if you are upfront and ask for what you need to achieve success. Forcefulness and persistence will pay off. Strive to be your best. Love is on the rise. ★★★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Face problems head on and be upfront and honest. Now is not the time to make up excuses when a simple apology or kind gesture is what’s required. Put the negative behind you and start anew. ★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Getting together with friends or taking part in an event or activity that tests your skills will bring out the best in you. Have a heart to heart talk with someone you care for. A change at home will bring great results and help you to ease your stress. ★★★★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You may face scrutiny if you haven’t been honest with someone who has always had your back. Clear the air so you can lessen the tension and start moving down the right track. Your charm will attract lovers. ★★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): You can work well with others as long as you are straight about who is doing what. Lots can be accomplished and a greater understanding between you and a partner will bring positive changes. An added responsibility will be a blessing. ★★★ ONE STAR: It’s best to avoid conflicts; work behind the scenes or read a good book. Two stars: You can accomplish but don’t rely on others for help. Three stars: If you focus, you will reach your goals. Four stars: You can pretty much do as you please, a good time to start new projects. Five stars: Nothing can stop you now. Go for the gold.

Flexibility is a stretch

ear Dr. Donohue: I am 60 years old and continue to play basketball twice a week. I play through a number of nagging pains and ailments. One problem I have never had is Achilles’ tendinopathy. I attribute this to stretching after I warm up and after I am through playing. If you agree, pass this tip on to others. – Anon.

BLONDIE

I’ll get to your question, but let me take your letter as an opportunity to say something about stretching and flexibility. Flexibility is the degree of movement a joint can make. Some people are born with limited joint movement, while others have extreme, even pathological joint looseness. Sporting activities that require more than average flexibility are pitching a baseball, gymnastics, figure skating and dancing. Dancing is a sport that requires great athleticism, strength and flexibility. The joint itself determines how great its range of motion is, but so do the tendons, muscles and ligaments that surround the joint. Those structures can be stretched. The best way to increase joint flexibility is through static stretching. Move the arm, leg or whatever as far as comfortably possible, and hold that stretched position for 15 to 30 seconds. Don’t bounce your way into a stretch. That kind of stretching – ballistic stretching – can injure joints, tendons, ligaments and muscles. Older people have a

vested interest in keeping themselves flexible. When they lose flexibility, they canHEALTH not put on shoes, tie Dr. Paul shoelaces Donohue or dress ■■■ themselves. Besides improving performance, stretching is said to prevent injuries. If joints, tendons, ligaments and muscles are too tight, they suffer from sprains (ligament and tendon tears) and strains (muscle tears). Intuitively, stretching ought to prevent such injuries. Perhaps your stretching has preserved your Achilles’ tendon. I buy that claim. However, I have to confess that evidence supporting injury prevention through stretching is not overwhelming. Dear Dr. Donohue: I have been lifting weights since I was 14 years old. I am now 67 and have never missed a beat. I have a regular training routine, which I vary on occasion. In my early years, I was a competitive bodybuilder with a pretty good physique. Even at my present age, I still maintain a bodybuilder’s physique. My question to you is twofold: 1. Will I be able to maintain my physique if I continue to train as I have? 2. Are there any suggestions you may have for me at this stage of my training? – B.K.

You won’t maintain the physique of a 20-year-old for life, but you can have a physique that few older people have. Let me clarify. Age takes its toll. Muscles don’t grow and repair like they do in youth. Your program definitely minimizes those changes. Now that I think about it, you can have a physique that nonexercising 20-year-olds will envy. As for your second question, you are better qualified to give me suggestions than I am qualified to give you.

Dear Dr. Donohue: After my second knee replacement, I was put in a convalescent center for rehab. After a twoweek regimen of heat applications, I advised the therapist that I would like to try something that used to be used 50 years ago. That is the application of both heat and cold. The therapist finally agreed to using heat under my knee and ice packs on top of it. In one week, I was able to put weight on the foot and knee, and the knee began to work for me. I call the procedure “shake and bake.” Why would a therapist not know of this treatment when my grandma used it more than 50 years ago? – B.M. I have heard of contrast baths (hot followed by cold) and the application of ice followed by the application of heat. That’s supposed to create a pumping action that drains swelling fluid out of an injured extremity or joint.

Red flag for Vickers B

rian Vickers is getting a lesson about things that are more important than driving a race car. Continuing treatment with blood thinners will keep Vickers on the sidelines for the remainder of the season, the driver and one of his doctors announced Friday. Vickers, 26, was forced out of the No. 83 Toyotas fielded by Red Bull Racing before Sunday’s race at Dover in the wake of being diagnosed with blood clots in his legs and both of his lungs. Dr. Steven A. Limentani described the clots as deep venous thrombosis in the legs and pulmonary emboli in the lungs. Vickers said he has been placed on the blood thinner Coumadin. Limentani, a hematology and oncology specialist, said that length of treatment is normally three to six months. Vickers opted for the longer period to enhance his chances of being completely cured. He is unable to race while on the blood thinner because of an increased likelihood of bleeding if he is in an accident. “For me to come back with just a few races left in the year and run the risk of this happening again by cutting the treatment short (after) three months, I don’t think the reward out-weighs the risk,” Vickers said. “We are going to go the full stay here, be committed for resolving this issue for the rest of my life and not have it be an issue again.” Until the realization of the seriousness of his condition began to sink in, Vickers was more worried about not driving his race car. “I was there in the hospital asking the wrong questions,” Vickers said. “I was asking if it was going to keep me out of the car. I should have been asking if it was going to kill me.” In a news conference held at Charlotte Motor Speedway while the drone could be heard from cars practicing for tonight’s All-Star race, Vickers said it is the first time he has been forced to the sidelines by something other than not qualifying for a race. “It stinks,” Vickers said. Vickers said the first indication something was wrong came when he developed chest pains while in bed last Tuesday night on a trip to Washington, D.C. He went back to sleep, but when pain in his left side became so se-

vere that he had trouble breathing, he went to the emergency room at the urging of SPORTS a friend. Limentani Greer said the Smith pain was ■■■ from the clots moving to the lungs. “I was afraid to go because I thought the doctors would tell me that I couldn’t race,” Vickers said. Vickers was released from the Washington hospital and returned home, but experienced more pain Saturday. He was admitted to Carolinas Medical Center on Sunday and released Monday. Because not all the results from tests have been received, Vickers and Limentani would not speculate on the cause of the clots. Limentani said he has treated other people Vickers’ age for clots, but they are more common in inactive people over 40. They would also not speculate on the chances of Vickers needing treatment past six months. Limentani said damage to the lungs should not be significant. A pulmonary embolism can eventually be fatal if not treated. Limentani indicated Vickers was not in immediate danger. Casey Mears is replacing Vickers for the second straight week. Red Bull general manager Jay Frye said no decision has been reached on whether Mears will remain in the car for the entire time Vickers is sidelined. Vickers recommended his friend Mears as his replacement. “I don’t foresee doing anything much different,” Frye said. “We’ve got the two road courses in there, so we may look at some other options for those.” During the time out of the car, Vickers plans to help in other areas of the team. He will not be at the track every week during the recovery. “I’m going to do some things that I haven’t been able to do because I’ve been racing in the summer and I won’t be able to do again once I come back,” Vickers said. “I’m going to take every opportunity I can to be positive through this, to deal with it and learn more, so I can be better when I get back in the car.” gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3519

HENDERSON – Two Meg Everhart home runs in the third and sixth innings proved to be the difference Friday at Northern Vance, and Ledford will play on in the NCHSAA 3A state playoffs. Panther starter Kristen Murphy pitched out of jams early, but cruised in the later stages of the 2-0 victory. In the final three innings, the Vikings were held hitless and had just one baserunner. Murphy surrendered three hits, walked four and struck out five to get the win.

Mighty Knights stop Cowgirls BY DANIEL KENNEDY SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE

WELCOME – Tess Swing grimaced ever so slightly as she got back to work. Following the next pitch, she barely batted an eye. North Davidson’s stoic right-hander could only watch as her no-hitter and shutout vanished on back-to-back pitches. After Ally Davenport’s seeing-eye single found its way between the outstretched gloves of the Black Knights’ shortstop and third baseman, a rattled infield also surrendered Southwest Guilford’s first run of the night with an error. None of the above shook Swing as she toed the rubber to record the final four outs of her one-hitter. Escaping its only scare of the night, undefeated North Davidson notched a 2-1 victory over the Cowgirls to move on to the third round of the NCHSAA 4A playoffs. Swing found herself in a tight spot thanks to Southwest’s Jessica Becher: “She deserves all the credit. She’s a great pitcher,” Swing said.

Becher scattered eight hits over six innings against 27-0 North. The first run came in the second, when Lauren Beaver doubled and scored on a Nicole Tuttle single. In the fifth, Becher managed to escape allowing a single run despite giving up four hits in the inning. “You have your off-speed pitches working,” Becher said. “You also have to know that your defense is there to pick you up. My team behind me is amazing.” Southwest finished its impressive season at 17-9 with a championship-caliber performance against the favorite to win it all. The Black Knights were ranked first in the nation this week by USA Today. “Not many teams score on them, but we pushed our run across,” Southwest coach Jon Chambers said. “Offense has been the key to our season. We’ve scored 220 runs for the season and have a team batting average of over .400. That will probably be a bit lower tonight. But it comes against a team like North Davidson.” A team that was pushed to the brink by the Cowgirls.

HIT AND RUN

---

f all drivers have the attitude of Kevin Harvick, then the sparks and sheet metal should fly in tonight’s All-Star race. “You take more chances, definitely from a driver’s standpoint, than you would on a normal weekend just because there is really nothing to lose other than a race car,” Harvick said. He considers the risks small because no points are awarded. All that drivers will be concerned about is the $1-million first prize. “If you are racing for a win you’ll probably put yourself in positions that you

normally wouldn’t,” Harvick explained. Adding to the likelihood the sparks will fly is the format that calls for a 10-lap final segment, creating the need to make moves fast. The kicker this year is that all the cars will be on equal footing because of a requirement that all cars must pit for four tires before the green flag waves to start the final segment. “To have something that is that much different than the format that we usually race week in and week out really brings a lot of excitement to the whole thing – to the race fans as well as the competitors,” Mark

Floyd Landis ignored pleas from his sponsor to avoid a public fight with Lance Armstrong, according to e-mails the seven-time Tour de France champion released in trying to prove the disgraced cyclist has “zero credibility.” Armstrong released the messages in a second day of attacks on Landis, who accused cycling’s top star of doping and teaching other riders to cheat. Armstrong has denied those allegations.

Martin said. “To have the opportunity to race a little bit more all for the win, and not have to worry so much about minimizing or backstopping your strategies or decisions: You can go out there and it’s sort of winnertakes-all. That makes it really, really special. There are a lot of sparks that fly out there in these races, so it’s pretty cool.” It’s a shame NASCAR can’t come up with a way to generate that type of excitement every week.

Rain dampens All-Star practice BY GREER SMITH ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER

Kerry Earnhardt, son of Dale Earnhardt, looks at a mock up of a new Wheaties cereal box with his father’s likeness during a news conference in Charlotte on Friday. The cereal boxes should be on store shelves this summer.

RCR decision expected on Harvick BY GREER SMITH ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER

CMS ALL-STAR NOTEBOOK:

CONCORD – Richard Childress Racing is scheduled to have a news conference this afternoon and is expected to announce it has signed driver Kevin Harvick to a contract extension. Harvick’s future with the team has been the subject of speculation after he gave indications last year that he may not return. Trying to maintain his stance of saying as little as possible about his contract status, Harvick said he “had no news to report. As soon as we get something new to report, we’ll do that.”

IDEAS BEGINNING FOR MARTIN

Mark Martin is starting to explore the possibilities of which team he might drive for in 2012 after his stint with Hendrick Motorsports is over. “There are some scenarios developing,” Martin said. “But it will be a long time until any of them come to fruition. Probably sometime next year.”

festival in downtown Charlotte. The Earnhardt-Ganassi team, the product of the team Earnhardt started merging with Chip Ganassi, will pay tribute to the Hall of Fame induction and the 10-year anniversary of Earnhardt’s last victory with a special paint job on Jamie McMurray’s car in the fall at Talladega. The car will carry the gold paint scheme on the Childress car Earnhardt drove in the 1998 AllStar race.

BUSY SCHEDULE Jimmie Johnson will race in a six-hour Grand-Am race at Watkins Glen on the Saturday of the weekend the Cup Series is at Pocono for a 500-miler on Sunday, June 5. Johnson said he will have a tight schedule shuttling by plane between the two tracks for practice on Friday. “I just hope there are not any weather issues,” Johnson said. “I’ll go to the Glen for practice first thing Friday. I may get 15 minutes of practice before I have to leave for practice at Pocono at noon. If I can’t get back after we qualify, then I will have 15 minutes of practice in the Grand-Am car.”

HONORING EARNHARDT

Wheaties will put Dale Earnhardt’s picture on its boxes this summer to commemorate the seven-time Cup champion’s induction into the NASCAR Hall of Fame on Sunday. It is not Earnhardt’s first connection with “the breakfast of champions.” He drove a car sponsored by the cereal brand in 1997. That car will be on display beginning Thursday at the annual race-week street

JUST CIRCUMSTANCES Johnson, who won three of the first five races of the season, is winless in the seven races since the switch from a rear wing to a rear spring on NASCAR’s new-generation car, while Joe Gibbs Racing has won five times. Johnson said the change has had little to do with his winless streak. “I think people are learning the cars are not much different with

the spoiler and with the wing,” Johnson said. “Teams are better at some tracks than others and we’ve just gone through a stretch of tracks that aren’t our best even though we’ve won at some at them.”

PATCH WORK After participating in Nationwide testing at Daytona this week, Kyle Busch and Kevin Harvick gave a thumbs-up to the patch used to fill the pothole that developed in the west banking during the Daytona 500. “I didn’t even see it until someone brought it up,” Busch said. “I was like, ‘Oh, we patched the track somewhere?’ I found it and it didn’t do anything. I have no concerns here.” Said Harvick: “You really couldn’t even tell that it was there. Everybody ran through it lap after lap and it didn’t bounce the car around. They did a good job fixing it. I don’t think it will be an issue.”

SPARK PLUGS As of late Friday afternoon, more than 1 million votes had been cast in the fan balloting that will put a driver in the All-Star race if he does not finish in the top two in tonight’s Showdown qualifying race. The top five vote-getters, in alphabetical order, were AJ Allmendinger, Marcos Ambrose, Jeff Burton, Carl Edwards and Elliott Sadler. ... NASCAR Hall of Fame inductees Junior Johnson and Richard Petty are grand marshals for tonight’s race. Michael Jordan will serve as honorary starter.

“Whatever this guy tells me to do, I’ll go and go for it. I’ll be prepared.” How each team intends to deal with the “shootout” is being debated. Each of the announced 37 car-driver combinations can make up to three runs during the first five hours of qualifying. The nine fastest cars will return to the track and be required to make at least one more four-lap run during the final 90 minutes. Each of the nine could then make a second attempt and the best average speed takes the pole.

CONCORD – Joey Logano was disappointed even though he wound up with a front-row starting spot for tonight’s AllStar race. Second-year driver Logano was bummed because rain washed out qualifying for tonight’s All-Star event, denying him a first crack at experiencing the unique time trial format that includes a pit stop during a threelap run. “I was looking forward to that, the pit stop thing,” Logano said. “It was going to be fun. Hopefully, we’ll be eligible and get to do it next year.” Kurt Busch was awarded the pole, based on the qualifying draw. Brad Keselowski and Jamie McMurray are in the second row. “We’ll have the advantage of track position early,” Busch said. “That will be big because we’ll get to learn how our car will be in clean air.” Busch’s advantage at the start won’t be worth much at the end because of a format that brings pit crews into play when all cars make a pit stop before the green flag to start a 10-lap final segment. The stops are crucial because the starting order for the segment will be the way cars exit pit road. The pit stops could be a blessing for Denny Hamlin, who will start last after his engine failed in

practice. He has the pit stall closest to the pit road exit by virtue of his crew’s victory in a pit crew competition on Wednesday. “We’ll benefit early on, but Denny will benefit as the race progresses,” Busch said. “It’s not terrible getting out of the pit box. But in that first stall, you can limp over the line first and that can make the difference when you are running for a million dollars.” Drivers said they want to start up front for the final segment. “The cars handled better in clean air,” Logano said. “And there’s likely going to be a crash in the final segment. If you are in the back, it’s more likely you are going to be in a crash.” The engine failure was bad in many ways for Hamlin. “This is probably one of the worst situations you could have,” Hamlin said. “We only got two laps of practice. So, we didn’t get any time on our race setup. We didn’t get to practice coming onto pit road or getting off pit road. We didn’t get to practice anything. We don’t have scuffed tires. A lot of guys will probably race scuffed tires (those with just a bit of wear) because they’re a little bit faster. And we’ve got to start in the back – so it’s like a double, triple, quadruple whammy of blowing the motor this early.”

The Boilermakers shot a 7-over 295 to finish at 1 over. They entered the final round with a 7-stroke lead over the Trojans, overcame a late rash of bogeys and wrapped up the title on the final hole. Hedwall, a sophomore from Sweden, finished at 12-under 276 to beat Arizona State freshman Jennifer Johnson, who entered the final round with a one-stroke lead but shot a 73. Purdue’s Maude-Aimee LeBlanc (71) and Auburn’s Cydney Clanton (66) – a former N.C. prep star at Concord High School – finished at 7 under.

PITTSBURGH – Jason Heyward homered and drove in three runs to support Tim Hudson’s eight dominating innings and the Atlanta Braves didn’t wait until late to put away Pittsburgh, beating the Pirates 7-0 on Friday. The Braves had won three consecutive games in their final at-bat, including a 10-9 win over Cincinnati on Thursday in which they scored seven runs during the best ninth-inning comeback in franchise history.

Home woes odd for Celtics WALTHAM, Mass. (AP) – The original Boston Garden is long gone, and so is the fear in opponents’ eyes when they play the Celtics on their home floor. So don’t expect the Orlando Magic to be too intimidated when they arrive for Games 3 and 4 of the best-of-seven Eastern Conference finals. “We’ve won there before, and there’s no reason we can’t do it again,” forward Rashard Lewis said Friday as the Magic prepared for Game 3. “Boston came to us and beat us twice on our home court, so

it’s happened before. Why can’t we do it? Why can’t it happen again?” The Celtics took the first two games in Orlando, stealing the home-court advantage and earning a chance to advance without having to leave town again. A victory at the new Boston Garden tonight would give them a chance to complete the sweep on Monday. But home-court advantage doesn’t mean what it used to for Boston. The Celtics were 24-17 at home this year – tied for the worst of all the playoff teams.

Strong Spartans stop Warriors

Eagles stunned by No. 4 seed BY ZACH KEPLEY THOMASVILLE TIMES

THOMASVILLE â&#x20AC;&#x201C; It is safe to say that Cuthbertson High Schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s softball team is not a typical No. 4 seed. Tied at 4 with East Davidson through five innings, the Cavaliers exploded for two runs in the sixth and five more in the seventh, bumping the Lady Golden Eagles out of the NCHSAA 2A state playoffs with an 11-4, second round victory Friday evening. Cuthbertson broke the tie in the sixth inning as Morgan Recher led off with a single. No. 9 hitter Lauren Gruber then stepped in, smashing a sinking liner to center. Eastâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Kaley Key raced in, but the ball dove under her glove and went to the fence. Recher raced all the way around for the score, Gruber visited the plate for a run moments later on a wild pitch. After the Eagles went quietly in the sixth, the young but talented Cavaliers took a stranglehold on the game with a five-spot in the seventh that was aided by a couple East miscues. The first two batters reached on a hit batsman and error, but East pitcher Spencer Embler recovered recording a groundout and strikeout to get one out away from escaping. It would be quite a while before that last out went in the book. The next three batters recorded hits, and errors scattered throughout the inning led to an 11-4 Cavalier lead. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We knew we just had to put the ball in play and just try and make things happen,â&#x20AC;? said Cuthbertson coach Jason Phelix. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are young, but we are really athletic and have

LEXINGTON â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Wheatmore coach Rick Halo is trying to lay the foundation for a tradition of softball excellence. The first-year Warriors got to see a tradition of excellence firsthand Friday night. The Warriors committed two second-inning errors that led to a 2-0 hole and never recovered in a 9-1 loss at three-time defending 2A state champion Central Davidson. The Warriors, the No. 2 seed from the PAC-6, ended their season at 18-9. The Spartans improved to 22-4 and will host East Rutherford in the third round Tuesday. Halo held a lengthy conference with his team after the game, setting the guidelines for future success. But he was clearly disappointed in how quickly things unraveled for his squad.

some girls that can really run the bases. The offense is actually pretty new for us, so I think we are finally starting to come around.â&#x20AC;? East put a couple runners on in the seventh, but the hole was much too big to climb out of. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They are probably the most athletic team we have played all year,â&#x20AC;? said EDHS coach Greg Fowler. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They are well-coached and you have to give them a lot of credit. Yes, we made a lot of mistakes, but they put the ball in play and forced a lot of the mistakes. Sometimes we just cannot get by these one innings.â&#x20AC;? The first inning played out almost exactly the same as it did on Tuesday for the Eagles. Cuthbertson came out ripping the ball against Embler, accumulating two runs to start the game. In the bottom half of the inning, East got the runs right back with a two-out rally after Paige Byrd reached by getting hit by a pitch. Byrd went station to station, coming home on a steal of second by Morgan Gallimore. Kaley Key made sure Gallimore got home ripping a single to tie the game. The score stayed knotted until the bottom half of the third, as East scored a run to take its first lead. Gallimore reached on a fielderâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s choice, then moved to second on a Caroline Fowler single. Key delivered the big hit again, slapping a single to center for a 3-2 Golden Eagle lead. It was short-lived, with the Cavs charging right back with a twospot in the fourth. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We played hard, but sometimes when things start getting bad it is hard to change them,â&#x20AC;? said Fowler.

Homers propel Panthers

CHARLESTON, S.C. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Kyle Mahoneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s two-run homer to left field in the 13th inning provided the winning runs after High Point University forced extra innings with long balls in the eighth and ninth Friday at Charleston Southern. The Panthersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; 10-8 victory moved them to 28-27 overall (14-12 Big South) to set the HPU record for wins in a Division I season. Freshman Kyle Wigmore had two strikeouts in the bottom half of the 13th to secure his first career win. High Point trailed 7-2 in the seventh inning, but the Panthers scored four runs in the eighth inning and Zach Tessier tied the game at 7-7 with a pinchhit home run in the ninth. A wild pitch plated Mike Mercurio in the 12th inning, but CSU tied the game on a sacrifice fly in the bottom half. Steve Antolik had a two-run single in the first off starter Tyler Thornburg. Stew Brase replaced Thornburg in the eighth inning, when Antolik connected on a three-run blast to left to make it 7-6. HPU will go for the sweep today at 2 p.m. in the final game before the Big South Tournament.

BISHOP BASEBALL WINS

----

The Bishop McGuinness baseball team scored six runs in the fifth inning to upset Cherryville 6-3 on Friday night in the third round of the NCHSAA 1A playoffs. The Villains improved to 16-9 and will visit Albemarle, which beat Bessemer City on Friday, in the sectional title game Tuesday. The winner of that game advances to a best-of-three regional championship series. Cherryville led 2-0 entering the fifth inning, which saw Bishop get a home run from freshman Chris Dolge and a two-run single by Chris Kane. The Villains only had seven hits in all during the game. Michael Urban (5-3) pitched five solid innings, striking out three, before Matt Rembielak closed the door in the final two frames. The pitchers saw the defense commit three errors behind them. The save was the fifth of the year for Rembielak.

Central scored two more in the fourth and three more in the fifth, pounding out 10 hits and taking advantage of Wheatmore misplaying three sacrifice bunt attempts. Central coach Gene Poindexter, who prides himself on the Spartansâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; aggressive approach at the plate, was pleased to see his bats come alive. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t done it all year like that, but tonight that was our goal,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Top to bottom, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s as good as weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve hit it in a long time.â&#x20AC;? Despite the season ending with such a thud, Halo sees plenty of potential from his group of underclassmen. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our goal at the start of the year was to win a playoff game, and we did that,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m proud of what weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve done. We didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t lay down at the end there, but they hung in there and fought.â&#x20AC;?

GLENN 3, ARDREY KELL 2 WINSTON-SALEM â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Meagan Tilley blasted a single to the wall in the bottom of the seventh inning Friday night to lift Glenn to a 3-2 win over Ardrey Kell in the second round of the NCHSAA 4A playoffs. The Bobcats (25-2) entered the seventh down 2-1 after unearned runs crossed against Kat Zimmer. Sarah Reichart walked and stood on third after two stolen bases. Meredith Tilley was hit by a pitch and then stole second. Rachel Wilson sent a grounder to shortstop, with Glenn tying the game when the throw home was too late to catch Reichart. Following an intentional walk to Catherine Head, Meagan Tilley put an emphatic end to the contest over the drawn-in fielders. Glenn will play host to Davie County on Tuesday following the War Eaglesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; 21 upset of Southern Alamance on Friday night.

GREENSBORO â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Southern Guilfordâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s boys scored nine points to tie for 20th place among the 56 teams scoring in Fridayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s N.C. High School Athletic Association 3A Track and Field Championship. Xavier Jones led the Storm with a thirdplace showing in the 400 meters, finishing in 48.18 seconds. Jones also was sixth in the 200 in 22.53. Southernâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s girls scored five points at N.C. A&Tâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Irwin Belk Track, with Landra Graves taking fifth in the shot put at 36 feet, one-half inch. Daijia Ervin picked up a point for the Storm by placing eighth in the 100-meter dash in 12.72. Ledfordâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Brook Shelton cleared 9-0 in the pole vault and tied for 10th, just outside those scoring points: seven vaulters were at 10-0. No other Panthers competed. Ashevilleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s boys won the team title with 90 points, topping Shelby Crest (63). Wintervilleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s South Central won the girls meet with 63 points, outdistancing Weddington (48).

After retiring the side in order in the first, Wheatmore pitcher Cat Tupper got into a jam in the bottom of the second. Carly Tysinger led off with a double and moved to third on Whitney Lohrâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sacrifice bunt. But on a low throw to first, Lohr was ruled safe despite Betty Dennyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s insistence she had control of the ball. In the commotion, Tysinger never slowed and came all the way around to score and Lohr moved up to second. Lohr was canned at the plate moments later trying to score on a wild pitch, but after Emma Comer walked, McKenzie Burkhart laced a single to right field. An error in the outfield allowed Comer to score, making it 2-0. The Spartans tacked on two more runs in the third on Kara Lohrâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s

EU nations back tougher sanctions to combat debt

BRUSSELS (AP) – European Union finance ministers backed tougher sanctions to prevent them running up too much debt in the hopes of winning back market confidence and getting a handle on the debt crisis that is threatening the euro. The European Union’s president Herman Van Rompuy said the talks Friday showed that “it was very clear that there was a broad consensus on the principle of having sanctions” – both financial and political.

Verizon gets OK to sell phone lines

WASHINGTON – Federal regulators are giving Verizon Communications Inc. the green light to sell nearly 5 million phone lines outside of its core service areas to Frontier Communications Corp. Friday’s approval by the Federal Communications Commission marks the final step for the $8.6 billion deal, announced more than a year ago. The transaction has already been cleared by antitrust regulators at the Justice Department and Federal Trade Commission, as well as by state regulators and local officials.

HP recalling 54,000 laptop batteries

SAN FRANCISCO – Hewlett-Packard Co. is recalling 54,000 lithiumion batteries used in HP and Compaq computers after receiving reports of injuries from the batteries overheating and rupturing. The recall was announced by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and expands an earlier recall of 70,000 of the same type of batteries. The earlier recall came after two reports of the batteries overheating. The commission said that since then, HP has received 38 additional reports of the batteries overheating, causing 11 minor injuries.

Pump prices continue to fall as oil drops

The three-week slide in crude prices is paying off for the nation’s drivers, as pump prices continue to fall ahead of the summer driving season. Oil prices fell again on Friday, with Benchmark crude losing 76 cents to settle at $70.04 on the New York Mercantile Exchange. Average national retail gasoline prices are now a dime per gallon below the 18-month high reached earlier this month. Pump prices fell 1.3 cents overnight to a national average of $2.827 per gallon.

Current limits on debt and deficits are backed up on paper by heavy fines, which have never been imposed – effectively allowing Greece and others to ignore them and build up massive debt. Van Rompuy gave no details of new sanctions because officials from the EU’s 27 governments, the European Central Bank and the European Commission are only starting work on changes to widely flouted EU budget rules. EU leaders are due to de-

cide on long-term reforms at an October summit. Germany, which is providing the largest chunks of bailout funds for Greece and the eurozone, is keen on harsher punishments for countries that break the rules to deter them from seeking financial rescue. Van Rompuy indicated that he was opposed to the changes Germany has called for. “We must work as far as possible within the framework of the current treaties,” he said, because it “allows us to work far more rapidly.”

Toyota recalls 3,800 Lexus cars NEW YORK (AP) – Toyota Motor Corp. said Friday it is recalling about 3,800 Lexus LS sedans in the U.S. to fix a problem with the vehicle’s steering system following a similar recall in Japan. The company said the recall affects some 2009 and 2010 LS 460 and LS 600h sedans. The recall is designed to fix a problem in which the steering wheel becomes off-center after a specific driving maneuver. The problem should not occur during normal driving, the company said. Toyota earlier Friday recalled 4,500 of the same models in Japan to address the steering issue. The recall affects roughly 2,750 vehicles elsewhere around the world. The automaker has been working to react faster to problems after coming under government scrutiny and being

slapped with a record $16.4 million U.S. fine for its slow response to its accelerator pedal recalls. It is also facing hundreds of state and federal lawsuits. Those recalls affected more than 8 million vehicles worldwide. On Thursday, lawmakers in the U.S House of Representatives accused Toyota of failing to keep its promise to get to the bottom of what caused unintended acceleration in some of its vehicles. Jim Lentz, Toyota’s top U.S. sales executive, told lawmakers that the company has no evidence that electronics are to blame for the sudden acceleration reports. Toyota’s safety concerns have triggered to the first major review of U.S. auto safety laws in Congress since the large tire recalls by Bridgestone/Firestone Inc. in 2000.

Ex-Wachovia exec charged in $11 million bank scam CHARLOTTE (AP) – A former Wachovia Bank vice president faces federal charges that he conspired with small-business owners to fleece the big bank out of $11.2 million. Terry Scott Welch, 47, of Mooresville was charged with mail fraud and tax evasion. Federal prosecutors say Welch had been bilking the Charlottebased bank for nine years. Welch oversaw the payment of invoices submitted by outside vendors who provided goods and services to Wachovia, authorities said. He got owners of a string of businesses to turn in fake invoices for goods and services the bank never received, an indictment filed Thursday alleged. Welch’s attorney did

not respond to requests for comment Friday. The bank declined comment. John Cousar Jr., 47, of Albemarle and Delmar Dove, 59, of Charlotte also were charged with mail fraud and tax evasion. Attorneys for both men said Friday they would plead guilty in agreements negotiated with prosecutors. Welch is accused of receiving nearly $3.4 million in kickbacks from Cousar and Dove through false invoices claiming that Wachovia owed for fictitious moving and delivery services. The two men kept millions more for themselves as a result of the scheme that ran from about 2000 through November 2008. Prosecutors did not say how the scheme was discovered.

Late gain ends volatile week NEW YORK (AP) – The stock market had another tumultuous ride this week as disarray in Europe heightened fears of a global economic slowdown. Despite a late-day comeback on Friday, major stock indexes are down about 10 percent from the peak they reached in late April. Declines of that size are known as a “correction.” They are normal during a bull market and are even seen as a healthy way for a market to regain its bearings after a long period of uninterrupted gains. The correction that started this week is the first for the bull market that began in March of last year. Whether the correction has mostly run its course or turns into a bear market, defined as a decline of 20 percent or more, is anyone’s guess. Stock indexes ended with solid gains Friday after starting the day lower and dipping below 10,000; the Dow closed up 125 points. Stocks are now about where they were in early February and down 2 percent for the year. Jacob Gold, a financial adviser and CEO of Jacob Gold & Associates in Scottsdale, Ariz., says the market collapse of 2008 is fresh in the memories of clients. “They’re second-guessing themselves because they don’t want to end up giving the economy the benefit of the doubt and having it hurt them,” he said.

FTC clears Google purchase of mobile ad service

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Federal regulators have approved Google Inc.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s $750 million acquisition of the mobile ad service AdMob despite worries that the deal will enable Google to extend its dominance of Internet marketing into the nascent field of wireless devices. The Federal Trade Commission said Friday that its antitrust concerns were overshadowed by Apple Inc.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s push into the $600 million mobile advertising market in the U.S.

Apple bought another online mobile ad leader, Quattro Wireless, for an undisclosed amount in January after trying to buy AdMob only to be outbid by Google in November. Fridayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s FTC approval paves the way for Google to extend its dominance of Internet marketing into the wireless arena. Now that it has regulatorsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; blessing, Google said it will close the AdMob deal within the next few weeks. Google believes advertising on mobile devices

eventually will be as lucrative as marketing on computer screens. The company considers AdMob key piece in its strategy to make more money from people on the go. AdMob, launched four years ago by Omar Hamoui while he was a graduate student at the University of Pennsylvaniaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Wharton business school, runs a network that delivers targeted advertising to Web sites and online applications tailored for smart phones.

Chrysler adds 1,100 jobs at Detroit plant DETROIT (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Chrysler Group LLC gave a big boost to the battered Michigan economy Friday when it announced the addition of about 1,100 workers to help build the new Jeep Grand Cherokee. The company made the announcement at the Detroit factory as it celebrat-

ed the start of Grand Cherokee production. Chrysler said it expects strong sales of the new sport utility vehicle, which is due in showrooms next month. Almost all the workers will be new hires, which Chrysler can pay about $14 per hour, about half the hourly rate received

by current workers represented by the United Auto Workers union. The workers will staff a second shift at the factory, called the Jefferson North Assembly Plant. The new vehicle, which is more efficient and carlike than the current model, goes on sale in June.

BP delays attempt to stop oil by shooting mud

ROBERT, La. (AP) – It will be at least Tuesday before engineers can shoot mud into a blownout well at the bottom of the Gulf of Mexico, BP said Friday in yet another delay in the monthlong effort to stop the oil that is now washing into wetlands and onto at least one public beach. A so-called “top kill” has been tried on land but never 5,000 feet underwater, so scientists and engineers have spent the past week preparing and taking measurements to make sure it will stop the oil that has been spewing into the sea for a month. They originally hoped to try it as early as this weekend. BP spokesman Tom Mueller said there was no snag in the preparations, but that the company must get equipment in place and finish tests before the procedure can begin. BP already has three deepwater rigs and other equipment near the blown-out well. “It’s taking time to get everything set up,” he said. “They’re taking their time. It’s never been done before. We’ve got to make sure everything is right.” Crews will shoot heavy

Astronauts make final spacewalk of mission

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – Spacewalking astronauts finished putting in a new six-pack of batteries at the International Space Station on Friday, a $22 million power overhaul that was their last major objective. It was the third and final spacewalk this week for the visiting crew of shuttle Atlantis. With shuttle flights ending this year and another decade of space station operation looming, NASA wanted the orbiting outpost to have all fresh batteries. Six batteries were replaced last summer.

Texas adopts new social studies curriculum

AUSTIN, Texas – The Texas State Board of Education adopted new social studies and history guidelines Friday for classrooms in an ideological debate over academic standards that has drawn intense scrutiny. The board gave the curriculum a more conservative bent by dictating how political events and figures will be taught to some 4.8 million primary and high school students in Texas and beyond for the next decade. The standards also will be used by textbook publishers who often develop materials for other states based on those approved in Texas.

$20 for ‘Shrek’ on IMAX is a lot of green NEW YORK – A few theaters seemed to flirt with the idea of raising the adult ticket price to $20 to the IMAX 3-D family movie “Shrek Forever After,” opening this weekend. Four AMC theaters in Manhattan bumped the box office price to $20, but three quickly dropped the price on Friday. Two were charging $17 and two were selling tickets for $19. AMC Theatres spokesman Justin Scott attributed the price hike to an error.

Alfalfa sprouts recalled after 22 sickened

WASHINGTON – Salmonella found in raw alfalfa sprouts appears to have sickened 22 people in 10 states, including one infant in Oregon, prompting a nationwide recall of the product. Caldwell Fresh Foods of Maywood, Calif., announced the recall Friday. According to the Oregon Department of Human Services, which also announced the recall Friday, Caldwell’s product was sold in 18 states in the West, Midwest and South. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 11 people were sickened in California, two were sickened in Nevada and two were sickened in Wisconsin. Arizona, Oregon, Idaho, Illinois, Missouri, New Mexico and Colorado each had one person sickened. Six people were hospitalized. ENTERPRISE NEWS SERVICE REPORTS

manently stop the oil. BP PLC, which was leasing the rig and is responsible for the cleanup, has tried and failed several times to halt the oil. Chief Operating Officer Doug Suttles said Friday that a mile-long tube inserted into the

leaking pipe is sucking about 92,400 gallons of oil a day to the surface, a figure much lower than the 210,000 gallons a day the company said the tube was sucking up Thursday. Suttles said the higher number is the most the tube has been sucking up

at any one time, while the lower number is the average. The company has conceded that more oil is leaking than its initial estimate of 210,000 gallons a day total, and a government team is working to get a handle on exactly

how much is flowing. Even under the most conservative estimate, about 6 million gallons have leaked so far, more than half the amount spilled by the Exxon Valdez in 1989. Anger has grown as oil has started washing into delicate coastal wetlands.

Regulators get big say on rules WASHINGTON (AP) – Banking regulators shared the blame for the financial crisis that buckled Wall Street. Now they’re the ones lawmakers are counting on to give final shape to the new overhaul of financial rules. In section after section of the massive 1,560-page Senate bill, lawmakers leave much of the details for the regulators to figure out. These are the bank

and market overseers – the Federal Reserve, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Securities and Exchange Commission – who took a beating for not overseeing Wall Street more strictly and for failing to see the danger before it struck in 2008. When it comes to key decisions about how to rein in complex, previously unregulated securities, how to liquidate large,

interconnected failing financial firms, even how to protect consumers, the bureaucracies in charge of setting the rules get plenty of discretion. Lawmakers and Obama administration officials confronted the question time and again, about when to be specific and prescriptive and when to give the regulators latitude. “There is room for im-

posing more duties and responsibilities on the regulators, and the bill contains a number steps to do that,” Assistant Treasury Secretary Michael Barr said in an interview. “But we also don’t want to lock anything in stone.” It’s a delicate balance. For the financial industry, the more leeway regulators have, the more they can influence the final rules.

Obama orders new fuel standards WASHINGTON (AP) – President Barack Obama directed the government Friday to set the first-ever mileage and pollution limits for big trucks and to tighten rules for future cars and SUVs, setting the nation’s sights on vehicles that run on half the fuel they now use and give off half the pollution. “The nation that leads in the clean energy economy will lead the global economy. And I want America to be that nation,” Obama declared at the White House as he signed a presidential memorandum that would reshape the country’s driving habits long after he leaves office. With the catastrophic oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico underscoring the risks of

President Barack Obama signs a presidential memorandum outlining the next steps of cleaner and more efficient vehicles during and event at the White House. America’s heavy reliance on fossil fuels, Obama gave federal agencies just over a year to come up with fuel efficiency and

greenhouse gas emission standards for commercial trucks and buses. Such vehicles are big polluters and fuel consum-

ers even though they’re far outnumbered by passenger cars. The Union of Concerned Scientists, an environmental advocacy group, said large trucks represent about 4 percent of all vehicles on U.S. highways but devour more than 20 percent of fuel. According to the Environmental Protection Agency, commercial trucks account for 21 percent of greenhouse gas emissions in the transportation sector – compared with 33 percent for passenger cars and 29 percent for SUVs, pickups and minivans. The new standards, to be issued in July of next year, would apply to big trucks and buses for model years 2014-2018.

Pentagon’s Clapper may lead intelligence agencies WASHINGTON (AP) – The Pentagon’s top intelligence official emerged as the leading choice Friday for what’s fast becoming known as one of the most thankless jobs in Washington – director of national intelligence. The position has a great title, but the

office has just claimed its third victim. James R. Clapper, now the defense undersecretary for intelligence, is the White House’s leading candidate to replace retired Adm. Dennis Blair, who is resigning, two current U.S. officials and one

former military official say. Another candidate is Mike Vickers, the Pentagon’s assistant secretary for special operations, officials say, but a Defense Department official says he has not been contacted for an interview. With three previous in-

telligence directors all saying the same thing – the job description itself is flawed – who would want it? The popular refrain from across the IC, as the intelligence community calls itself, is that the DNI has “all the responsibility and none of the authority.”

Lawyer Scott C. Williams (left) and Wanda Barzee listen to Ed Smart during her sentencing hearing.

Woman sentenced to prison in Elizabeth Smart case SALT LAKE CITY (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Nearly eight years after Elizabeth Smart was snatched from her Salt Lake City bedroom at knifepoint, the woman who pleaded guilty to the 2002 kidnapping is headed to prison. Wanda Eileen Barzee was sentenced Friday to two terms of up to 15 years in prison in backto-back hearings in state and federal court. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I know the gravity of my crimes and how serious they are,â&#x20AC;? Barzee, 64,

said during the federal hearing. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m just so sorry again for all the pain and suffering I caused upon the Smart family.â&#x20AC;? The terms will be served concurrently, and Barzee will likely be held at the Federal Medical Center, Carswell, in Fort Worth, Texas, where she can be treated for mental illness. The sentencings bring to a close a seven-year legal process for Barzee that was repeatedly delayed.

BERLIN (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The manager of U2 says that frontman Bono has undergone emergency back surgery in a Munich hospital after he was injured while preparing for the groupâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tour. The 50 year old, whose real name is Paul Hewson, is under the care of neurosurgeon Dr. Joerg Tonn and Dr. Hans-Wilhelm Mueller-Wohlfahrt, according to a statement on U2â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Web site. Mueller-Wohlfahrt could not be reached for comment. Band manager Paul McGuinness, in an MP3 posted on the Web site, said Friday that because of the injury, the bandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;360-Degreeâ&#x20AC;? June 3 show in Salt Lake City, Utah, has been postponed.

Lindsay Lohan expected CASH in court Monday FOR

LOS ANGELES (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Lindsay Lohan is expected in court next week after missing a mandatory hearing on Thursday. Lohanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s attorney, Shawn Chapman Holley, says the 23-year-old actress will return to Los Angeles today and appear in court Monday morning. After a few breezy days at the Cannes Film Festival, where she attended various events to promote her Linda Lovelace film and partied into the wee

hours on the day she was supposed to be in court in Beverly Hills, Lohan is coming home to a litany of legal woes. She was to be arrested upon her return to Los Angeles for missing the mandatory hearing, but a judge recalled the warrant late Thursday after Lohan posted bail. Superior Court Judge Marsha Revel set bail at $100,000, revoked Lohanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s probation and imposed strict new conditions.

Ford brings popular European car here BY ANN M. JOB THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NUTS & BOLTS

The 2011 Ford Fiesta is a small car with big-car features and technology and a top mileage rating of 40 miles per gallon on the highway. Best of all, the Fiesta gets the most out of every sip of gasoline without forcing buyers to pay a premium price for a hybrid powerplant or fuss with the inconvenience of finding diesel fuel in town. Instead, the Fiesta uses an efficient four-cylinder gasoline engine, dualclutch automatic transmission, careful weight control and selective features to claim the top highway mileage rating of all gasoline-powered, non-hybrid cars in the country. Combined with a city rating of 29 mpg, the Fiesta’s overall mileage rating of 33 mpg tops the previous best gasolinepowered, non-hybrid cars – the 2010 Mini Cooper and the Toyota Yaris that have a 32-mpg combined city/highway rating. But the Fiesta isn’t a bare-bones little car. It’s longer, wider and heavier than the Mini Cooper and Yaris. Even base Fiestas come with electronic stability

–

The Ford Fiesta is longer, wider and heavier than the Mini Cooper and Yaris, yet boasts 40 mpg on the highway. control, curtain air bags, air conditioning and AM/ FM stereo with auxiliary audio jack. A knee air bag that helps keep a driver properly positioned behind the steering wheel during a crash also is standard. And the front-wheel drive Fiesta sedans and five-door hatchbacks – all with seats for five – can be had with some items that are unusual in the smallcar segment. Examples:

Heated front seats, softtouch dashboard areas and tri-coat exterior paint that has a luster like that found on pricier vehicles. Starting manufacturer’s suggested retail price, including destination charge, is $13,995 for a base, 2011 Fiesta sedan with manual transmission and 120horsepower, four-cylinder engine. The starting retail price for a Fiesta sedan with

automatic transmission is $15,065. But the Fiesta with the most attractive styling – a European look – is the hatchback, which starts at $15,795 with manual transmission and $16,865 with automatic. Note that Fiestas with six-speed automatic get the top fuel mileage rating of 40 mpg on the highway. Fiestas with the five-speed manual transmission earned lower ratings.

The pricing puts the Fiesta in the middle of the pack for small cars. The 2010 Honda Fit, which is sold only as a five-door hatchback, has a slightly lower starting MSRP, including destination charge, of $15,610 with manual transmission and 117-horsepower, four-cylinder engine. The 2010 Nissan Versa sedan with manual transmission has a posted starting retail price

2011 Ford Fiesta Hatchback SES BASE PRICE: $15,120 for hatchback SE; $17,120 for hatchback SES AS TESTED: $19,660 TYPE: Front-engine, front-wheel drive, fivepassenger, subcompact hatchback ENGINE: 1.6-liter, double overhead cam, four-cylinder engine with Tri-VCT MILEAGE: 29 mpg (city), 40 mpg (highway) TOP SPEED: NA LENGTH: 160.1 inches WHEELBASE: 98 inches CURB WEIGHT: 2,575 pounds BUILT AT: Mexico OPTIONS: Automatic transmission $1,070; rapid spec package 301A (includes heated front seats, keyless entry and start, alarm and exterior chrome molding) $795

of just under $11,000. Buyers who want to load up their fuel-efficient small car with amenities will find plenty to choose from with the Fiesta. There are car “tattoos,” otherwise known as graphics, that dealers will install for $375. Interior lighting can change with the mood of the driver, at the push of a button.

Realtors promote quality of life M

any people think that Realtors are focused only on helping a person sell or buy a piece of property. The fact is that Realtors go far beyond simply managing the transaction. As Realtors, we are committed not only to helping our clients with the pursuit of owning their own home, but also in the pursuit of a quality of life. The High Point Regional Association of Realtors is committed to giving back to the community in which we serve. Many of you are aware of the Neighborhood Stabilization Program (NSP) that was featured in last week’s article, but you may not be aware that your local Realtors, also through the High Point Regional Association of Realtors, have committed funds and coordinated with local companies to help landscape these

properties. The local companies that have teamed up with the association of realtors are: Brice Landscapes, Daryl Landscapes, Green Jeepers REAL ESTATE Lawn Service, Ken Landscape Design Wall by Tucker, Lowes, ■■■ and Triad Lawn Care. Each of these companies has agreed to determine the landscaping needs and donate up to $150 per house in design, plants, and manpower. In addition, the HPRAR will contribute an additional $1,500 to help make these properties look more attractive in the High Point community. In addition to the NSP, our association is involved in: • Sponsoring 3 bloods drive

per year with total collections supporting 300 lives • Holding food drives that support local food banks in the areas we service • Supporting Habitat for Humanity in the High Point, Archdale, and Thomasville areas • Supporting Operation Ziploc, which is an award-winning regional charity supporting the U.S. troops overseas • Sponsoring toy drives, which support disadvantaged youth in the association’s local areas • Participating in Picnic in the Park, wherein the association annually hosts 250-300 disadvantaged and deserving youth to a day of free food and an afternoon of America’s Traditional Pastime – baseball! • The association, through the Realtor Foundation, also offers support in times of dire or

critical need to Realtors, their families and the community, as requested. So as you can see, as Realtors, we don’t just help in the buying and selling of properties, we are also committed to promoting a better quality of life for High Point and the surrounding area. Please speak with your local Realtor, so he/she can start helping you in your pursuit of a higher quality of life. Ken Wall is president of the High Point Regional Association of Realtors, one of more than 1800 local boards and associations nationwide that comprise the National Association of Realtors (NAR). The Association is an advocate for property rights and the “Voice of Real Estate” in the Triad area of North Carolina. HPRAR represents more than 700 members in all aspects of the residential and commercial real estate industry.

Subdivision to fill gap for mid-priced homes BY PAM HAYNES ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

ARCHDALE – A subdivision being built in Archdale will fill a need for homes in the $200,000 to $235,000 price range, developers of the project say. After the federal government’s homebuyer tax credit program sparked builders to focus on the $100,000 price range, popular to first time buyers who were looking to get a bargain in conjunction with the tax credit, the Diamonds Keep subdivision will target buyers looking at a variety of larger homes, said Chris Long, a real estate agent with Ed Price and Associates. “It’s a situation in a shortage of homes, especially in the $200,000 to $235,000 price range,” Long said. “Going into the peak of the real estate season, along with interest rates staying low and special financing available, we figured it was the best time to take advantage of the situation.”

SPECIAL | HPE

A home under construction at Diamonds Keep. The subdivision, developed by Diamond W. Enterprises, will be built on Archdale Road on the property that used to be the Spillman Christmas Tree Farm. In its beginning stages, two spec homes are being built in the neighborhood. About 205 homes will be built when the project is complete. The spec homes are listed as $229,900, said Long, the real estate agent for the homes.

The homes will have modern features such as laminate wood flooring, ceramic tile and granite counter tops. Many will be two-story, brick homes. A home owner’s association in the area also requires each home have a minimum of 1,850 square feet. To keep the area connected with other subdivisions in the area, a 22-acre greenway is being donated by the developer to the city of Archdale. “The city wanted some connectivity to major subdivisions,” Long said. “That would give them the opportunity to expand that.” And as the homes go up and the tax credit fades into the past, Long believes the housing market will see new interest in mid-price ranges. “A lot of people feel that the $200,000 market may come back since the tax credit is gone,” he said. phaynes@hpe.com | 888-3617

Finding the right city condo near your office A

re you a young professional who’s recently landed a job in a downtown location and are considering the purchase of a condo-apartment close to your new workplace? If so, this could be an opportune time to snare a great deal on a place in the city, assuming you’ve targeted the right building and researched local pricing trends before making a bid, says Tom Early, a real estate broker and former head of the National Association of Exclusive Buyer Agents (www.naeba.org). As the economy pushes toward recovery, Early says a number of city condo markets are also staging a rebound and due to their resurgence, more young professionals in their 20s and 30s are now interested in owning a place downtown. “Young, career-oriented people see little point in battling traffic to commute from the suburbs when they could live in the city near their friends and office,” he says. Yet as with any real estate purchase, make sure you’re buying the best available property and not overpaying. “Don’t buy in any building with more amenities than necessary. For instance,

it’s pointless to pay high condo fees for upkeep on a huge workout center or swimming pool you’ll rarely use,” Early says. Here are pointers on buying smart in a city condo market: • Pick a downtown SMART MOVES neighborhood that Ellen pleases you. Martin Suppose you work for ■■■ a bank or an insurance company and are contemplating the purchase of a condo in the financial district. If so, that might only be a good bet if you are moving to a part of the city with at least as many residential buildings as commercial ones, says Fred Meyer, a real estate broker and consumer advocate. “A neighborhood that’s mostly office buildings can seem like a cold, uncomfortable place once those buildings clear out at night. You’re better off in an area with a nice balance between offices and condos,” he says. Meyer says you should visit the neighborhood you’re considering at various daytime, evening and weekend hours, and trust your instincts on

whether it feels right to you. • Zero in on the best available condo building in your favorite area. Eileen Brennan, a real estate broker affiliated with the Council of Residential Specialists (www.crs.net), says that while she’s noticed a sizeable increase in the number of young professionals with downtown offices who would rather buy than rent, she cautions that wannabe city condo buyers should be “very, very selective” in terms of the building they choose. “A new building could be a good choice, but so could an older building that’s well maintained. Either way, you’re always better off living in a purely residential building than one that also has offices and retail shops,” she says. Brennan suggests you talk to residents you meet in the hallways or chat with building staff to gauge whether or not the building has a friendly appeal. • Look for a building where noise won’t be a problem. If you’ve lived most of your life in a house where playing loud music usually wasn’t an issue, you may be unaware of how a building with poor soundproofing can hamper your

quality of life, Early says. In the design and construction of new condo buildings, extra attention is often given to soundproofing. However, Early says “apartments in old buildings with massive walls can be exceptionally quiet.” • Obtain key documents to learn more about a condo building. Condo dwellers live in close quarters with other owners and have to abide by homeowner association rules. That’s why Early urges potential buyers to obtain a copy of these rules before purchasing a unit. “Ask yourself, for example, if you’d be happy in a place that won’t let you hang a towel on the balcony, put up a satellite dish or have a dog,” he says. Before you bid on any unit, he says you should ask your real estate agent for a copy of your homeowner’s association rule book. Also, ask for a copy of the association’s financial statement to ensure that the building has sufficient reserves to meet its repair bills without imposing a “special assessment” on residents. • Check out local market trends before making a bid. You’ll want to do plenty of homework.

Re/Max Realty announces expansion of Web site SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE

WINSTON-SALEM – Local CDPE-designated agent and community advocate James Allison of RE/MAX Realty Consultants has announced the expansion of an information Web site for the Piedmont Triad-area homeowners in distress: http://yoursolution2foreclosure.com/ This resource now contains eligibility surveys for government programs offering help to distressed homeowners, in-

cluding the Home Affordable Foreclosure Alternatives Program, or HAFA, which increases the likelihood of a short Allison sale or deed-in-lieu of foreclosure. “These surveys will let homeowners quickly discover new options made available by the government,” Allison said. “When faced with the possibility of foreclosure, I’ve seen too many homeowners make

mistakes because they hadn’t been advised by a qualified professional. These people didn’t know the options available, or even how to find any information on their situation. My Web site helps to solve this problem.” Yoursolution2foreclosure. com/ acts as a hub for information on the facts and issues for struggling homeowners, putting all the necessary information in one, easy-to-use location. With the addition of these new eligibility sur-

veys, the site lets homeowners make educated decisions about their future. “Seven out of 10 homes that have gone into foreclosure did so without even being listed on the market,” said Alex Charfen, co-founder and CEO of the Distressed Property Institute. “Agents like James Allison with the CDPE designation are helping distressed homeowners understand that there may be options available to avoid foreclosure.”

The CDPE designation provides real estate professionals with specific understanding of the complex issues confronting the real estate industry. Through comprehensive training and experience, CDPEs are able to provide solutions for homeowners facing financial hardship in today’s market. For more information about the CDPE Designation, visit http://www.cdpe. com” www.cdpe.com.
