Paper played role in WWII ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

The High Point Enterprise included Sunday comics in color in tabloid size with eight pages during an early year of World War II. That same year, the Enterprise ran a full-page ad announcing “Carriers have volunteered as official U.S. Defense agents to supply you at home with 10-cent defense savings stamps.” Included was an order blank to fill out and give to the carrier.

JAMESTOWN – One woman was killed and a child is in serious condition as the result a Sunday morning wreck that involved a North Carolina state trooper. The wreck occurred at 11:44 a.m. Sunday at the intersection of Business Interstate 85 and River Road in Jamestown, according to Trooper Greg Ingram of the N.C. Highway Patrol.

Before the wreck, Trooper J.D. Goodnight clocked a blue Buick Skylark going south on Business 85 at 80 mph in 55 mph zone. As Goodnight’s vehicle, which witnesses said was displaying flashing blue lights, approached the River Road intersection, a burgundy Honda Accord traveling north on Business 85 turned left into the path of Goodnight’s vehicle. The two vehicles

struck in the intersection. The woman driving the Honda was killed, and three children who were passengers in the Honda were taken to Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center. One was in serious condition. Names of the driver who was killed and the children are not being released yet, Ingram said. Goodnight was taken to an emergency medical fa-

cility, where he was treated for minor injuries. Witnesses are being questioned, and a Highway Patrol accident reconstruction team is investigating the incident, and no blame has been assigned yet, Ingram said. The Highway Patrol is searching for the driver and passengers of the Buick, which troopers say was occupied by four black males.

DAVIDSON COUNTY – The Davidson County Clerk of Court’s Office has launched a new program that allows Davidson County residents and others who get traffic tickets in the county to pay them online. Brian Shipwash, clerk of Davidson County Superior Court, said the

Citizens can make online payments via credit card and debit card. system, payNCticket. org, was launched May 6. The system allows citizens to make online payments via credit card and debit card for most traffic violations. “It’s an asset for Davidson County residents because it brings online a new piece of technology that makes payments and the whole entire process is more efficient,” Shipwash said. “It allows them to be able to not have to come down and worry about finding a parking place and standing in line for court if they just choose to go ahead and pay it off.” Though the system has its benefits, Shipwash said it was important for people to understand that they are pleading guilty to the offense when they pay online. He said hiring an attorney could “potentially reduce” the chances of a speeding ticket impacting someone’s car insurance. According to Ship-

The city has completed the new trail at Allen Jay Recreation Center for walkers and runners.

Walkers, runners enjoy new trail at Allen Jay BY DIANNA BELL ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – For some people, running and walking is part of their daily ritual. For others, it is something to do on a whim. No matter the reason, a new trail at the Allen Jay Recreation Center has widened the options of where to get those legs moving. In November 2004, High Point voters passed an $8 million bond referendum for the improvement of the local parks and recreation facilities, according to the High Point Parks and Recreation De-

partment. The trail recently completed at Allen Jay was part of that bond. The trail is a paved, mile-anda-half loop around the baseball fields. “The project took several weeks to complete,” said Recreation Supervisor Joyce Chambliss. “Workers had to grade the trail and then pave it.” Since its unveiling, the path has seen frequent use. “Senior citizens come out every morning to walk,” Chambliss said. “Joggers can be seen in the afternoon, and several after-school pro-

grams come out in the evening to enjoy the facility.” Other projects that have been completed include renovations and improvements to: Washington Terrace, City Lake Park, Armstrong Park, Oak Hollow Marina, Deep River Recreation Center, Phillips Soccer Complex, and Southside and Harvell parks. The Parks and Recreation Department is continuing to search for land to create more parks. As of February, $7.6 million of the budget had been spent or earmarked. editor@hpe.com | 888-3537

Budget debate brings 2011 into view RALEIGH (AP) – Republicans complained during Senate debate last week over the chamber’s $19 billion budget for next year that Democrats haven’t prepared North Carolina state government for the fiscal woes facing the state in 2011. That’s when lawmakers won’t have more than $1.6 billion in federal stimulus funds currently used to fill holes for increasing Medicaid costs, the public schools and universities. Temporary income and sales tax increases generating $1.3 billion annually also are set to expire. And pent-up demands from the state employee pension funds and health insurance will have to be resolved. “This budget total ignores the $3-plus billion

cliff the state is about to go over in the next fiscal year,” Senate Minority Leader Phil Berger, R-

Pent-up demands from the state employee pension funds and health insurance will have to be resolved. Rockingham, said last week on the day the bill passed largely along party lines. Democrats acknowledge the trouble ahead but argue they’re cutting spending and making tough choices so the state can jump out of the blocks

ACCURACY

lutely right, it’s going to be worse next time, and I do wish that we could do more,” said Rep. Jim Crawford, D-Granville, co-chairman of the House Appropriations Committee, which will offer its version in two weeks, but “we’re not going to cut everybody off in an election year.” The partisan budget rhetoric is similar to discussions during last year’s session. Democrats said they’re closing large budget gaps in part through stimulus money and spending cuts. They also approved tax increases in 2009 that will expire in 2011 to make up the rest. Republicans countered the true gaps were much lower and didn’t require higher taxes.

Coastal police increase patrols WILMINGTON, N.C. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Police in coastal North Carolina counties plan to add more waterway patrols this summer to increase enforcement of boating laws, the StarNews of Wilmington reported Sunday. Brunswick County deputies will man two boats 12 hours a day with resource officers who are out of school for the summer. Capt. Charles Wilson said the patrols will last after dark when many boaters are leaving their fishing spots or heading home from restaurants. Hanover County deputies also will man two boats, with a staff of four deputies and a lieutenant, said Sheriff Ed McMahon. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re out there to try to educate people and make things safer, but

at the same time enforce laws,â&#x20AC;? he said. Brunswick Countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s patrols will include an air boat that has already been used this year to rescue a couple stuck in mud in a marsh near Oak Island. The increase in patrols could lead to more citations. Last year, Brunswick officers boarded 248 boats to check for safety equipment and violations, such as drunken driving. They gave out almost 200 verbal and written warnings for equipment violations and five boaters were charged with being impaired while boating, according to sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s department records. The Carolina Beach Police Department hopes its stepped-up pa-

trols can curb theft â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the most-reported crime on the water near the shore as people steal items from moored boats. The local patrols are in addition to the U.S. Coast Guard and the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission whose officers are at public boat ramps and crowded inlets. Those officers also respond to boating accidents. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have a routine,â&#x20AC;? said Lt. Matthew Long with the Wildlife Resources Commission. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We work at different times, sometimes in the morning and sometimes at night.â&#x20AC;? The Coast Guard uses four boats in New Hanover and five boats in Brunswick.

JOHN HOOD: Some budget cuts just make good sense. TOMORROW

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

Don’t call Republicans the ‘fat cats’ these days Regarding Kristine Kaiser’s column May 20: She refers to Republicans as having deep pockets when the Democrats out-raised them by 40 percent. Also, each of the last three Democrat cabinets had an average of two to one millionaires over the last three Republican administrations. Arizona law states being here illegally is a misdemeanor. Federal law says a felony. Arizona law says they can be sued to the hilt if they racially profile. Federal law allows their officers to check at will. The ethnic studies she refers to is the equivalent to the paragraph’s given to the likes of Madonna and other non-essential information which should be handled in a contemporary history class if at all. When the material presented shows a major influence to our nation it should most definitely be aired. Things like: most of the Founding Fathers died in poverty, many of them and their families were murdered and tortured (I don’t mean waterboarding either). A study of the previous century’s history at Harvard and Yale university libraries will reveal this. As far as the Tea Party is concerned, they are made up of people like myself, a small-business owner, labor’s etc. You see the rich don’t care about Tea Parties. They have their financial counselors and attorney’s to advise them how to hide their assets. The average guy on the street can’t and pays the largest percentage in taxes. Last of all, anyone who believes the Democrats or the Republicans have the answers is a complete and utter fool. Each year it gets worse no matter who gets in. Check out goooh.com. We will put in average men and women to do the work, not career politicians. We will not perform the Perot syndrome. ROBERT L. YOUNGBLOOD Trinity

Were Mexico President Felipe Calderon’s comments on Thursday before Congress about the Arizona immigration law and call for a U.S. assault weapons ban inappropriate? In 30 words or less (no name, address required), e-mail us your thoughts to letterbox@hpe. com. Here are two responses: • Calderon’s comments were inappropriate. Even more inappropriate was the standing ovation he received by Democrats. One doesn’t applaud an outsider who comes to your house and insults a family member.

Amendment” and “One Nation Under God” get re-elected by a landslide. It becomes very obvious that many people are either uninformed or simply don’t care. We have also watched some in leadership positions refuse to inform their people about the issues of this day. We are reminded of Martin Niemoller who said best: “In Germany they first came for the communists, and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a communist. Then they came for the Jews, and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Jew. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a trade unionist. Then they came for the Catholics, and I didn’t speak up because I was a Protestant. Then they came for me, and by that time no one was left to speak up.” Wake up America or America won’t be left to speak up. REID JOYCE High Point

Washington only wants the votes from Hispanics Who is kidding whom? The reason the big wigs let illegal immigration flourish here is because they want the legal Hispanic vote. Washington has proven they don’t care about anything but power and having what they want. How long do you think we could go to another country and over populate it and take their jobs? And fill it with narcotics? Do you think we could tell other countries we are here to stay and if we break your laws, too bad. Why don’t we let our criminals out of our jails and prisons if we are going to let foreigners live here by breaking the law? At least they are legal Americans. Our own would benefit our country legally than most of the illegals would. We constantly go downhill because we have lost our

OUR MISSION

Tests get a child’s view of black and white

ast week, Soledad O’Brien made a young mother cry. It came in the midst of a special series, “Black Or White: Kids on Race” on CNN’s “Anderson Cooper 360.” The series was based on a new version of the famous “doll tests” pioneered by husband and wife psychologists Kenneth and Mamie Clark in the 1930s and 1940s, and recreated in 2005 by Kiri Davis, a teenage filmmaker. In the tests administered by the Clarks and Davis, black children were presented two dolls, identical in appearance except that one was dark and the other, light. Asked which doll was bad, stupid or ugly, most of the black kids picked the black doll. Asked which was good, smart or pretty, they chose the white one. CNN’s study was similar, except that children were presented with pictures, not actual dolls, and the images ran a color gamut from very light to very dark. One other difference: CNN tested white children along with black ones. Which is how this little 5-yearold white girl in Georgia came to be sitting at a table facing an unseen researcher as her mother sat

with O’Brien and watched on video. Asked to point out the “good child,” she touched one of the lighter skinned figures. Why is that the good child, she OPINION was asked. “Because I think she looks Leonard like me,” the little Pitts girl said. ■■■ Asked to point out the “bad child,” she touched the darkest image on the paper. And why is that the bad child? “Because she’s a lot darker,” the little girl said. And watching, her mother softly wept. Your heart broke for her, because you just knew she never saw that coming. Your heart broke because you just knew she had bought into the myth that children are not soiled by the prejudices that stain their elders. Your heart broke, because how many times have you heard it said that, since they are growing up in the era of Oprah and Obama, our children will live beyond the belief that character is a function of color. But children are not idiots.

They hear us and see us. They watch television, they listen to radio, they read magazines, they live in our world. So very early on, they know what we think. And often enough, it becomes what they think, too. Thus, it is no surprise that CNN found both black and white kids maintain a decided bias toward whiteness. For instance, 76 percent of younger white kids pointed to the darker figures when asked to identify “the dumb child.” Because this is a pilot study, those results are not definitive. But they are instructive. So is this: A few months ago, a white teacher brought a black girl up to me as I was preparing to give a speech. The teacher wanted me to talk to her. She doesn’t think she is beautiful, said the teacher, because she is dark. I asked the girl if this was true and in a soft voice, with eyes averted, she said that it was. And man, what do you say to that? How do you explain the psychology of self-loathing and the futility of judging oneself by someone else’s beauty standards, and the cumulative psychological weight of 400 years of being told

YOUR COMMUNITY. YOUR NEWSPAPER.

you are not good enough and the need to embrace and love and value yourself just as you are? How to explain all that in 90 seconds or less while people are pulling at you, and the event is about to begin and you’ve got a speech to give and this little girl won’t even look up? I did the best I could. It was not nearly good enough. As I watched her walk away, I was troubled by my failure to make the case. And by the enduring need to do so. We are over 40 years beyond the Civil Rights Movement, 40 years beyond a burst of pride and racial consciousness that transfigured our very understanding of what it means to be black, 40 years into a future where Michael Jordan is an icon, Bill Cosby is a national father figure and a Kenyan’s son is president of these United States.

The ship will stay in the Norwegian port until the cause of the fire is determined. It was not immediately clear how badly it was damaged. Hotel worker Borghild Vik said that at one point she saw large clouds of smoke rising from the ship. The Deutschland was featured in the long-running AP German TV show â&#x20AC;&#x153;Das Traumschiffâ&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; which is The ship MS Deutschland billows smoke in Eidfjord, Norway Sunday.

US has uphill fight in key talks with China BEIJING (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The U.S. hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t swayed China yet on the need to punish North Korea and Iran heading into high-level talks between American and Chinese officials on greater security and economic cooperation, a senior Obama administration official said Sunday. With the two-day meetings beginning today, the two powers havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t settled on how to deal with North Korea, blamed for the deadly sinking of a South Korean warship, the official said. While an international report has found the North responsible, China isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t convinced, said the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity to describe the

conversation at a private dinner hosted by State Councilor Dai Bingguo for U.S. Clinton Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton. A second stalemate involves specifics about new U.N. penalties against Iran over its disputed nuclear program. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s evident the U.S. faces a struggle in securing Chinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cooperation on both issues, expected to be the subject of intense consultations during the Beijing sessions. Clinton and U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner are leading their delegation.

Iran spy chief says 3 jailed Americans are spies TEHRAN, Iran â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Iranâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s intelligence minister on Sunday signaled that Tehran might be open to a prisoner swap with the U.S. for three Americans jailed in Iran since last July. Sarah Shourd, 31, Shane Bauer, 27, and Josh Fattal, 27, were arrested along the Iraqi border 10 months ago. Iran has accused them of espionage and entering the country illegally; their families say the three were hiking in Iraqâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s largely peaceful mountainous northern Kurdish region and that if they crossed the border, it was accidental.

Protesters outraged as US base stays on Okinawa TOKYO â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Okinawans were outraged Sunday that Japanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s prime minister reneged on his campaign pledge to move a U.S. military base off their island, a decision that upholds a longstanding agreement with Washington. Protesters held signs plastered with the Japanese character for â&#x20AC;&#x153;angerâ&#x20AC;? as Prime Minister Yukio Hatoyama visited the Okinawa prefectural (state) office. His broken promise over Okinawa deepens political confusion just weeks ahead of nationwide elections.

The family members demanded the government either officially charge the men, who have been in custody for at least two weeks, or release them. Pakistan has a history of holding people for months, if not years, without charging them.

High Point fabrics company’s growth credited to uptick in sales, projects BY PAM HAYNES ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – A High-Point based fabrics company is announcing growth in sales that may further recent reports of a rebound in the upholstery, interior design and furniture industries. Greenhouse Fabrics announced a “sizeable growth in sales” in a statement this week which could signal that “designers are on the rebound in 2010.” Ryan McCullough, vice president of sales for the company, attributes part of

that growth to special promotions the company has held to boost sales. Promotions for free shipping and discounts on large orders have grabbed the attention of some of the company’s customers, he said. But signs of a turnaround in the furniture retail sector may also play a part. “From the people I’ve talked with, I see designers are finally getting the opportunity to bid and quote on more jobs,” McCullough said. “That may not translate into immediate sales, but at least there is some activity out

there. There are a lot of people that are beginning projects and getting some projects in motion over the last three to six months, where as 12 to 18 months prior there was nothing out there.” New construction continued to lag in North Carolina in April, according to a report released Friday from the Associated General Contractors of America. The report showed there were 172,000 construction jobs in the state in April, down from 173,800 in March. But sprucing up an existing home instead of moving into a new dwelling

has also become a trend, McCullough said. “Designers are giving us the feedback that they are getting a lot of small projects with groups that are staying put, such as redoing a kitchen here or a bathroom there,” he said. “There’s obviously been a lot of talk about the green movement. It doesn’t get much more green to re-do an existing piece of furniture or sofa in fabrics (instead of buying a new piece).” Furniture Insights, a monthly industry report by Ken Smith, a CPA with Smith Leonard Consultants in High

Point, has documented gains in new furniture orders for three consecutive months. The High Point Market also reported its first increase in registration numbers this spring for the first time two years. Those reports grouped together may mean good news for High Point’s upcoming Showtime fabric trade show in June. “Retailers are excited to put new product in their storefront,” he said. “I would imagine the momentum would continue with Showtime.” phaynes@hpe.com | 888-3617

Retiring principal says she’ll miss school ‘family’ BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

DENTON – Retiring at the end of this school year, Marie Casiday, principal of Denton Elementary, says she will miss her “family” at the school and in the community. Casiday, who has been Denton Elementary’s principal for 12 years, notified Fred Mock, superintendent of Davidson County Schools, several months ago that she would retire June 30 after 25 years in education. Casiday, 60, feels like it’s time to retire so she can spend more time with her grandchild and another grandchild that is expected to be born in November. Casiday said the parents, children and faculty have became like family because her husband, who is a minister, and she have moved around often. “I feel like that I’ve had a connection here,” she said. “I have not lived around family much. When we entered the ministry, we moved around a lot. It’s a connection that filled a need in my life, as well as helping people. “We have so many needs out there. We’ve had a lot of businesses to close up in the area ... It’s been more of a mission or calling to me. I try to inspire motivate and challenge people to be the best that they can be. It’s not only just working with the children, it’s working with the families as well.”

Mariana Qubein of High Point was appointed by Gov. Beverly Perdue to the board of trustees of the University of North Carolina School of the Arts in WinstonSalem. Qubein is an avid supporter of cultural and civic organizations in the Triad, having served on the boards of Family Services of the Triad, The Piedmont School, Westchester Country Day School, the North Carolina Shakespeare Festival and the High Point Arts Council.

Marie Cassaday, outgoing principal at Denton Elementary School, talks with London Hayes (left). and Sommer Truell. Casiday started her career in education in 1985 as a guidance counselor in Caswell County. She worked in that school system for 10 years, spending six years as an assistant principal before being hired by Davidson County Schools in 1995. Once in Davidson County, she first served as a guidance coun-

selor at South Davidson middle and high schools before having stints at Churchland and Denton elementary schools as an assistant principal. In 1998, she became principal of Denton Elementary. “I guess that I feel a sense of accomplishment that I’ve seen a lot of growth here – not with just the kids,

but the cohesiveness of the staff,” she said. “We have made several improvements to the property. It’s the coming together of the community. I can walk away knowing that we have accomplished something and I have been a part of that.” dignasiak@hpe.com | 888-3657

Former refugee embarks on new journey BY DAVID NIVENS ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – Innocent Ndagijimana is preparing for his next journey of faith and service. A Rwandan refugee and ministry candidate who made his way to the Triad five years ago, Ndagijimana will begin his studies at Duke University next fall. He graduated from John Wesley College this month. Ndagijimana, 36, wants to become a United Methodist minister specializing in refugees. While at Duke University he will be an associate student pastor. “I am very excited,” Ndagijimana said. “I have been challenged here academically and through spiritual growth.” Ndagijimana’s spiritual journey brought him from the Roman Catholic Church in his small east African country to Pentecostalism and then to Methodism.

Between April and June 1994, an estimated 800,000 Rwandans were killed in the space of 100 days. Most of those killed were Tutsis, and the rival

Hutus were blamed for most of the violence. The genocide was sparked by the death of the Rwandan President Juvenal Habyarimana, a Hutu, when his plane was shot down above Kigali airport on April 6, 1994. Ndagijimana lost his father, half-brother, several uncles and many friends as well as his country. Thousands of people fled Rwanda to the Republic of Congo. “I lived (in Congo) for three

Holly Grove Road, son of the late Seaph and Mary Alice Snider Gallimore, went home to be with the Lord on Saturday, May 22, 2010.

For the next 27 years Rex was an instrumental figure of Davidson Water, Inc. and was responsible for tasks such as elevated tank inspection as well as operation and maintenance of more than 60 pumping systems. He retired from Davidson Water, Inc. in 1998.

He supervised construction of the initial piping project. His efforts earned him an employee spot with the company, and later on, recognition as North Carolina Rural Water Association State Employee of the Year in 1994.

the cause of the American Red Cross by donating 10 gallons of blood throughout the years.

Families enjoyed stopping to view the lights and to visit with Santa Claus as part of their Christmas celebration. Rex was preceded in death by his first wife, Mozelle Foust Gallimore; two brothers, Boyd Gallimore and Aster Gallimore.

Former lawmaker brought down by scandals dies DALLAS (AP) – Former U.S. Rep. Donald “Buz” Lukens of Ohio, once a rising conservative star in state politics before a string of scandals abruptly ended his career, has died. He was 79. Lukens died of cancer at a Dallas nursing home Saturday, said his sister, Lois Short of Springfield, Ohio. Lukens was convicted in 1989 of paying a 16-year-old girl from Columbus, Ohio, for sex. He was sentenced to 30 days in jail fined $500. The scandal cost him the 1990 Republican primary,

where he lost to then-state Rep. John Boehner, now the House minority leader in Congress. Lukens also was mired in legal trouble because of a scandal involving the now-defunct House bank, which benefited Congress members by offering unlimited penalty-free checking overdrafts. He was later accused of taking $15,000 in bribes from two Cincinnati businessmen and convicted on a felony charge of bribery in 1996 and sentenced to 30 months in prison.

Heart attack kills former pitcher at 37

LOS ANGELES (AP) – Jose Lima lived over the top on and off the baseball field. The freespirited pitcher could deliver a song as well as a fastball, leaving a trail of fun and laughter known as “Lima Time” wherever he went. The All-Star righthander who spent 13 years in the major leagues died Sunday, according to the Los Angeles Dodgers. He was 37. Lima, who pitched the Dodgers to their first playoff win in 16 years in 2004, was in full cardiac arrest when paramedics arrived at his Pasadena home early Sunday morning, police said in a statement. He was pronounced dead at Huntington Memorial Hospital. The specific cause of death has not been determined, and Los Angeles County coroner’s officials will perform an autopsy, the statement said. Pasadena police detectives also are investigating. “Lima was an exceptional man,” said Winston Llenas, president of Aguilas Cibaenas, a winter ball team that Lima had played for in the Dominican Republic. “This is a great loss for Dominican baseball and the country.” Lima posted his best season with the Houston Astros in 1999 when he was selected to the All-Star Game. He went 21-10 with a 3.58 ERA in 35 starts for the NL Central champions. The Dominican pitcher was 89-102 with a 5.26 ERA in 348 games in the majors, with his last appearance a four-game stint with the New York Mets in 2006.

Opponents for S.C. governor square off GREENVILLE, S.C. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Lt. Gov. Andre Bauer challenged one of his Republican gubernatorial primary opponents during a debate Saturday, claiming state Rep. Nikki Haley was missing votes in the Legislature and not earning her paycheck. â&#x20AC;&#x153;With all due respect, if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to push for roll-call voting, you ought to be there to vote on it especially when you got paid that day,â&#x20AC;? Bauer told Haley in one of the most animated exchanges. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And I think thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a little air of hypocrisy,â&#x20AC;? Bauer said to applause from a crowd of about 300 at AP the Greenville County Republican Andre Baurer (left) with Henry McMaster and Gresham Party debate. The issue of recorded voting in Barrett are seen before the start of the Gubernatorial the Statehouse has bloomed in the Debate in Greenville, S.C., on Saturday.

June 8 primary, particularly for Haley. The Lexington lawmaker has pressed for it for more than two years, but Bauer pointed out she missed the Houseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s key vote on the issue when it came up this year. Haley said she had been stripped of prestigious committee assignments for fighting for roll call votes. On the day of the House vote, Haley said she had a speaking engagement with Greenville Republican women and when she posted that on Facebook and Twitter, legislators seized on her absence and took extraordinary moves to take up the legislation. She said she was still grateful the legislation passed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The two-and-half-year fight is the reason that the House over-

a mentor because she will have to learn self-sufficiency from the ground up. So be prepared to share every bit of wisdom you can with her.

Dear Abby: A child was found dead in our area. He died from blunt force trauma to his head. His mother had reported him missing, and 12 hours later his younger brother found his body. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not being called murder, although everyone around here suspects it was. I went to the visitation the first night, and I have never seen so many kids attend a funeral without a parent. I was appalled. You donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t send children to a childâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s funeral alone. I felt terrible for them. They lost a good friend and didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have their parents there to help them cope. I realize that people have to work, but the visitation was from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. The funeral was at 11 a.m. the next day. One adult I spoke with said she didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t go because she couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t stand to see the child that way. She couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take it, so I had to be there for her daughter. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t people understand itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not about them? Parents need to realize their kids may have a lot of questions and mixed-up emotions and need to talk.

What do you think of this? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Sad Mom in The U.S.A. Dear Sad Mom: I think you have written an important letter. Parents, if this letter strikes a familiar chord, please wake up and reprioritize. Your children need you â&#x20AC;&#x201C; especially at a time like this â&#x20AC;&#x201C; to help them talk through any fears and anxieties they are experiencing. Dear Abby: I was in and out of a relationship with â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bobâ&#x20AC;? for four years, and we recently split up again. Last September I bought an airline ticket for him to accompany me on a Florida vacation, but we broke up, so I cashed in his ticket. Bob keeps calling me and saying he wants his â&#x20AC;&#x153;presentâ&#x20AC;? so he can go away. I said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;No way!â&#x20AC;? Was I wrong? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Hurt in Massachusetts Dear Hurt: Heck, no! The ticket was purchased with the understanding that Bob would accompany you to Florida. Because you are now on the outs (again) and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not going to happen, why treat him to a free trip? Frankly, I think he has nerve to suggest otherwise, and if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re smart, the response youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll give him the next time he calls with his hand out will be, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t call me again.â&#x20AC;?

Charlotte woman charged in fatal fire CHARLOTTE (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; North Carolina fire officials have charged a woman with arson in an apartment building fire that was one of at least seven blazes over the weekend. The Charlotte Fire Department said in a news release that 27year-old Shayla Davis was charged with arson in connection with the fire Sunday that caused $250,000 in damage. No one was injured. Davis was being held in the Mecklenburg County jail. Jail records did not indicate whether she has an attorney. It was one of several fires in Charlotte this weekend that included one fatality. Officials have not released the name of the 58-year-old woman who died after being pulled from a burning twostory duplex early Saturday. Investigators say that fire appears to be accidental and caused $200,000 in damage.

Family in free fall needs someone to provide a net ear Abby: My brother passed away a year ago, leaving a wife and five children. They are wonderful, well-behaved kids. Unfortunately, my brother appears to have been the one who kept everybody on schedule and made all the decisions. My sister-in-law just did whatever he said, deciding nothing on her own. Now that heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gone, the family seems to be falling apart. The kids spend very little time at home, and they never eat together as a family anymore â&#x20AC;&#x201C; something I know is necessary these days to keep tabs on what the kids are up to. I could go into detail about how things have gone to pot, but I want to keep this brief. It breaks my heart to see it happen. I would love to have a little chat with my sisterin- law to explain to her that she must step up to the plate and be the adult.

here are times when firefighters enter homes and are confronted with stacks of old newspapers and long-forgotten magazines. Boxes stacked on top of each other and clothes piled high. Clutter to the point that all you have is a narrow path weaving past couches and beds, creating a dangerous situation for FIREHOUSE firefightCHAT ers. For Lee most Knight people, â&#x2013; â&#x2013; â&#x2013; recycling a newspaper is no problem. Hoarders may feel that they are destroying something containing life-changing information. This behavior frustrates and angers family members. Are they sloppy housekeepers, or is something more serious going on? What may be going on is what experts consider an obsessive-compulsive disorder called Collyer brothers syndrome. In 1947 in New York City, the bodies of the wealthy Collyer brothers were discovered in a crumbling four-story mansion packed with 130 tons of junk. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s estimated that 3 million to 6 million Americans may be hoarders. Dr. Sanjaya Saxena of the obsessivecompulsive disorders program at the University of California warns that hoarding often requires extensive treatment by professionals. Entering a smokefilled house with zero visibility is always dangerous, but in hoardersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; homes the dangers are magnified. Imagine leaving a smoke-filled house only to find the path blocked by collapsing junk or being trapped by piles of junk falling on you as you try to extinguish the fire. Chances of rescuing anyone are greatly reduced because of the dangers of working in a junk-filled home. Some say hoarders should be allowed to live as they want if theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not endangering others. Is this a valid statement if we treat them as having a mental disorder? Intervention can take a toll on the family, with the hoarder being anything but grateful. They feel theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been robbed and can become depressed or suicidal. There are no easy answers. Talk to a professional if you know someone who may suffer from this disorder and find out options. The right answer may be the hardest path to follow. Intervention makes our job safer and may save the life of someone you love. 24/7/365: You call; we respond.

Medicines usually control Paget’s bone disease

ear Dr. Donohue: I am a 75-year-old woman who was treated for breast cancer in 2008. What I am concerned about is that my oncologist tells me I have Paget’s disease. I asked how he knows I have it. He said from my X-rays and bone scans. I went on my computer, and the information I got tells me to have an alkaline phosphatase test. Should I have this test? – N.R.

BLONDIE

Dear Dr. Donohue: Will you write about Paget’s disease? My sonin-law has it, and it has brought pain in his left leg. He went from being an active roofer to now requiring a wheelchair. He is in great pain. Do you know anything that could help him? – P.C.

B.C.

Bones are in a state of constant flux. From the day of birth to the day of death, they undergo continuous remodeling. That entails bone breakdown followed by bone buildup. In Paget’s disease, for reasons that are not clear, bone breakdown goes ballistic. Rebuilding tries to follow, but it does so with a result that leaves much to be desired. New bone is laid down with such haste that the job is done sloppily, and the new bone is often deformed and easily broken. Quite often, the new, Pagetic bone is limited to a few small areas and causes no symptoms. It’s discovered when an Xray or bone scan is done for an unrelated reason. Paget’s disease is found in 3 percent of those over 40, but nowhere near that number is treated nor needs treatment. Alkaline phosphatase

is an enzyme found in bones. In Paget’s disease, its blood level rises and is additional proof of HEALTH disease activity. Dr. Paul If N.R.’s oncologist Donohue thought ■■■ he needed those results, he would have ordered the test. The pelvis, the backbones, the skull, the femur (upper leg bone) and the tibia (lower leg bone) are the ones most often targeted in Paget’s disease. When treatment is called for, the same drugs used for osteoporosis are used for Paget’s disease. Pain control might be difficult, but it should be achievable. Perhaps a consult with a pain clinic would help P.C.’s son-in-law. The best friend that Paget’s disease patients have is The Paget Foundation. Contact the foundation at 800-23PAGET or at www.paget. org. You’ll find it a rich source of information and help. Dear Dr. Donohue: What is the difference between inflammation and infection? – B.M. Inflammation is a body reaction that promotes health, but it’s a doubleedged sword. For the most part, it keeps us healthy. It controls infections, heals wounds, gets rid of dead tissue and walls of foreign bodies. In some circumstances, inflammation works against us. When

it doesn’t turn off when it should, or when it’s brought on by illnesses that keep it going, then it injures the body. Rheumatoid arthritis is an example of an illness where inflammation doesn’t know when to stop. Infections are invasions of the body by germs – viruses, bacteria and parasites. Those infections alert the body to danger, and inflammation is one way the body has to combat them. This is good inflammation. Dear Dr. Donohue: What is the difference between regular table salt and sea salt? I always thought salt was salt and used in excess is bad for your health. I understand regular table salt has a place in health because it provides iodine. According to a Hollywood star, sea salt is supposed to be good for you. She claims it lowers blood pressure. What is your take on this? – S.S. Salt is salt, sodium chloride, NaCl. Sea salt comes from evaporation of saltwater, like ocean water. It has trace amounts of magnesium, copper and iron, but not enough to be a health benefit. It can be considered the same as table salt without iodine. If sea salt is the largecrystal variety such as kosher salt, less of it is contained in a teaspoon than is regular salt. You can pack more table salt, with its small crystals, into a teaspoon. The difference isn’t great. Sea salt isn’t better for you than regular salt. It doesn’t lower blood pressure.

It takes a garden Project hopes to help people grow more than just plants BY JIMMY TOMLIN ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

hen Ward Street Mission’s new associate pastor, the Rev. Jeff Moran, was tasked with creating a central community garden in the Ward Street neighborhood, he encountered one insurmountable hurdle after another. Finally, when the task became a nightmare, Moran was saved by a dream. “The garden had really been on my mind, and I had a dream of a guy sitting on his front porch looking over the garden in his front yard,” Moran recalls. “You know how sometimes you know you’ve been dreaming, but you can’t remember what you dreamed? Well, this dream was different, because it wouldn’t go away – I couldn’t get the vision out of my head. I felt like God was leading me to put gardens at people’s houses, and I had this vision of a network of gardens all over the Ward Street area.” A few months later, it’s no longer a vision – it’s a reality. The House Gardens Greening Project (HGGP), sponsored by Ward Street Mission, is a small but continually growing network of vegetable gardens at individuals’ homes – not only in the Ward Street neighborhood, but throughout High Point, Archdale, Trinity, Thomasville, Kernersville and Greensboro. The number of gardens has grown to more than 30, according to Moran. “This thing has just blossomed into something really incredible,” he says. “It’s a way of connecting people with a physical and spiritual connection. We plant the seeds and then see what God does with them. I’ve seen people come out of their shells. I’ve seen people with not a lot of hope really blossom.” Moran and a team of volunteers provide the initial materials for the garden – railroad ties

It then becomes the homeowner’s responsibility to tend the garden. The cost for the homeowner is $80, but some scholarships are available, according to Moran. For an additional $5, they can participate in the HGGP Farmer’s Market, which will be held Saturdays in the parking lot of High Point Bank’s Westchester branch. In addition to selling their produce, participants can sell their arts and crafts at the market, as long as they’re made by hand. “So even if you can’t grow a garden, you can still be a part of our network by creating something,” Moran says. “For example, I paint gourds and make animals out of them.” Other aspects of the program include a harvest exchange table, where participants can swap, say, 10 pounds of their excess tomatoes for 10 pounds of squash; and a tool loan program, through which participants can borrow tools such as shovels, rakes, hoes and cultivators for a 48-hour period. According to Moran, the hope is to cultivate not just the land, but also to cultivate relationships among the individuals

They learn not only to be self-sustaining with their garden, but also to reap the rewards of those relationships. Moran says the project has prompted spiritual growth, too. “To me, there’s just something about watching a garden grow

that’s really spiritual – the way God takes that little bitty seed we plant and turns it into a bountiful harvest,” he says. “I love the concept, and I’m excited we’re able to do that at Ward Street.” jtomlin@hpe.com | 888-3579

It may be nearing Memorial Day and the start of summer, but Guilford County Department of Public Health is still encouraging residents who have not gotten a flu shot this flu season to do so. The expiration date for the supply of vaccines is approaching soon. “If you get the H1N1 flu shot now, your immune system will respond even more strongly to next season’s shot,” said Dr. Ward Robinson, medical director for the Department of Public Health. Guilford County has provided more than 22,000 flu vaccinations (H1N1 and seasonal flu) since last fall, which is nearly six times the amount given the previous year. It is estimated by the N.C. Immunization Branch that nearly 20 percent (1.7 million) of North Carolinians have been vaccinated, and 20 percent have had the flu. Both groups now have some immunity. However, that leaves 60 percent of us with no protection against the flu viruses. The H1N1 flu vaccine is available for persons 6 months of age and older. Seasonal flu vaccine is available for persons 4 years of age and older. Call 845-7655 for an appointment at the 501 E. Green Drive, High Point, location or (336) 641-5563 for the 1100 E. Wendover Ave., Greensboro, site. There is no outof-pocket cost for the vaccines, but bring your insurance, Medicaid or Medicare card at the time of your appointment, if you have one. For more information about the flu or flu vaccines, visit www. guilfordhealth. org, Dr. Ward Robinson’s blog at www.askguil fordhealth.com or www.cdc.gov/flu.

Cy the Cynic continues to battle his weight. “You need to reduce,” I said. “Why not try a vegetables-only diet?” “I tried being a vegetarian once,” the Cynic shrugged. “I quit when I began to lean toward the sunlight.” Cy was declarer at today’s four spades, and after he took the ace of hearts, he leaned toward drawing trumps. Alas, when he took the A-K, East discarded. Cy next cashed the A-K of clubs. He had a glimmer of hope when West’s jack appeared, but when West showed out on the next club, Cy lost three diamonds and a trump.

COLD GAME “The game was cold,” I said. “I had four losers,” Cy growled. How would you play four spades? Cy eventually saw the light. He could ruff a heart at Trick Two – a vital play – and cash the top trumps. Then he takes the top clubs and ruffs a club. (If West ruffed in, dummy would shed a diamond.) Cy ruffs a heart, ruffs a club and ruffs a heart for his 10th trick. He loses his four losers

on the last three tricks.

Your numbers are 3, 8, 18, 20, 23, 37, 42 ARIES (March 21-April 19): You’ll find it difficult to control your emotions, especially if you are too vocal about how you feel. It’s best to listen, observe and consider your options before making a decision that will alter your future. If someone makes you angry, respond rather than react. ★★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Being productive will help you avoid getting into a nasty argument.

Improvements at home will be a great place to begin. ★★★★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): You don’t have to agree with everyone about everything. Giving the people around you space to come and go will allow you the same freedom. Take advantage of this by occupying your time with worthwhile projects. ★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Do what comes naturally and you will make some interesting new connections, offering you financial information. Get your home in tip-top shape. Creative accounting, coupled with an idea you have, can lead to profits. ★★★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Your effort to add your own touch to whatever you do will separate you from the crowd. You can make financial gains if you promote an idea you have to someone who can contribute what you are lacking.

You cannot give in to someone pushing you to do things you don’t want to do. Move at your own speed. Don’t procrastinate because you don’t want to hurt someone’s feelings. ★★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): A creative idea will lead to a deal, putting you ahead financially. Travel, seminars, courses, tradeshows and education will all play a role. The people you encounter will be the link you’ve been missing up until now. ★★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Your efforts to help someone will pay off, bringing you benefits and greater opportunities. Make some productive alterations at home and you will ease up your finances, allowing you to get involved in a moneymaking project. ★★★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Talk to people who have experience and knowledge and you will be in a much better position to make your next move. Open your home for group discussions and family talks. Offering affection and being attentive will improve the relationships that count. ★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Being frivolous now will leave you financially short. Instead of spending, find new ways to create greater cash flow. It’s time you put your skills to better use so that you can get ahead and change your lifestyle. ★★★★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Relationship issues should be handled with care. If you are compassionate and understanding, you will enhance your romantic life. Make some physical changes to your living quarters that will be conducive to working from home. ★★★

Emotions reign at Hall of Fame N

ear the end of his scripted speech off of a teleprompter, Richard Childress became caught in the emotion of the day. Giving the induction speech for his driver and friend Dale Earnhardt, Childress’ voice quivered a bit as he thought of the days they spent together. “We went on hunting rips together,” Childress said as he momenSPORTS tarily struggled to speak. “We had Greer many conversaSmith tions. I look back ■■■ on those with a lot of fond memories.” Childress made his remarks as Earnhardt was to be last of the five inducted as the first class inducted into NASCAR’s Hall of Fame in Charlotte during a ceremony that lasted over three hours. There were a lot of fond memories shared during the festivities attended by drivers, dignitaries from the sport and fans as they gathered in a large ballroom adjacent to the Hall. Most of all, emotions carried the day, some of them generated by remembrance of the three inductees not living – Earnhardt, AP NASCAR founder William H.G Junior Johnson (left) is embraced by his son, Robert Glenn Johnson III, France and his son and successor during the NASCAR Hall of Fame induction ceremony at the Charlotte Bill France.

France accepted the induction of their father Bill. “Lesa and I talked about it,” Brian France said. “It was hard for us to go up and have our father inducted, even though we have a very simple assignment.” Robert Johnson, 16 and a budding racer, said he was the most nervous he had ever been in his life. Junior Johnson rewarded his son by giving him the ring he received as an inductee. Petty, winner of a record 200 races and seven championships, said that with the induction he finally realized what being elected to the NASCAR Hall of Fame means. “When you all the stuff in the Hall, you’re one of the chosen ones to be in the first five,” Petty said. “The more I think about it, no matter what drivers or crew chiefs or owners do now, if they win 14 championships and 500 races, they are still going to have to be in the Hall of Fame. This has moved us up a notch to what other sports had.” Not all of the emotion was sadness. Kyle Petty talked of his father coming home and sleeping during the day and being surprised that he became successful “only working half days.” Earnhardt Jr. joked he caught the brunt of his father’s Intimidator persona in a NASCAR exhibition race in Japan. “I didn’t quite clear him going into a turn,” Earnhardt said. “He lifted my wheels off the ground all the down the frontstretch to the first turn. I think I was more scared than when I got an F in school.” Although some of the remarks were read from a script, there were plenty of touching remarks that weren’t. “It came from the heart from all of us,” Kerry Earnhardt said. “When you are sitting there reading a script, it’s someone else putting words in your mouth. It can’t mean the same as when it comes from the heart.” gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3519

Busch’s topsy-turvy year takes positive turn BY GREER SMITH ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER

CONCORD – Kurt Busch continued to be perplexed by the pattern to his season on Saturday night. He didn’t mind the latest turn that was worth a payday of a million dollars when he won NASCAR’s All-Star race. “Tracks we’ve expected to do well on this year, we’ve struggled,” Busch said. “Racetracks where we’ve struggled on in years past, we’ve run well. The perfect example is Charlotte. I can’t quite figure that out.” Busch had never won previously at CMS. You would have never known it as he drove a Dodge with a scarred right side to the lead with eight laps remaining and then sprinted away from Martin Truex Jr. and Joey Logano in a decisive restart with two laps to go. His car had speed early when he won the 50-lap opening seg-

ment in the four-segment 100-lap race. He didn’t look like a potential contender going into the 10lap finale after his car slapped the wall Busch twice and dropped back in the 20-lap third segment. His crew chief Steve Addington said the damage was cosmetic. After some adjustments during a 10-minute intermission and a required four-tire change at the start of the shootout, Busch’s car came back to life. He pounced quickly, driving from fifth to the lead when leader Denny Hamlin’s block led to Kyle Busch scraping the wall in turn two and the top four drivers slowing with eight laps to go. Busch shot past Hamlin into the lead going into turn three. “My game plan was to make big, bold moves, make sure when I was able to plant the throttle

Full field rundown of Saturday night’s All-Star main event. 2D to keep it down and wheel the car the best I could,” Kurt Busch said. “When you plant the throttle early, you get a big run off the corners. I had Jimmie Johnson in the middle of the racetrack. I was digging underneath him. I saw some paint and sparks fly off turn two when Kyle brushed the fence with (Denny) Hamlin. I don’t know what happened there, but it hurt their momentum. I was able to get by Johnson. I think I had cleared (Joey) Logano in turn one. “Getting the lead during the final 10 lap segment, that was the biggest moment for me in the race. I was like, ‘Whoa, this is it, man.’” The victory continued a topsyturvy season for Kurt Busch that

includes a win at Atlanta, five other finishes of eighth or better and six finishes of 18th or worse. “What I’ve struggled with a little bit is just the hot and coldness of it,” the elder Busch said. “The cold times I can’t quite define just yet. But, you know, we’ll run third at Darlington one week and then we’ll back it up with blowing out right front tires at Dover the next week. Goodyear changes the tires quite often with the Car of Tomorrow. Some racetracks it comes into our favor, others it doesn’t.” With the victory, Busch believes he might find things to be in his favor for Sunday’s Coca-Cola 600 even though he has just three topfive finishes in 10 starts at CMS. “Momentum is at an all-time high here having won at Charlotte with a completely different setup that we had,” Kurt Busch said. “That’s the most refreshing thing about it.” gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3556

HIT AND RUN

---

ven though it was produced for television, the first induction ceremony for NASCAR’s Hall of Fame was first rate. That’s not counting the buildup that included dignitaries and guests arriving for a “red carpet” ceremony that was really a walk on blue carpet to match the Hall’s colors. Those who put the show together, coming up with Hall of Fame blazers to be on par with other Halls of Fame, and also awarding the inductees with special rings. The ceremonies were held in a ballroom the size of a good sized super market. Some

of the attendees were fans, some of them in shorts, some in bib overalls, who intermingled with those dressed in suits and sports coats. It was a celebration of the past. It also was heralding how far the sport has come from the dirt tracks of the South, with the Hall standing as a building block for the future. Rick Hendrick, the car dealer who handled the induction of his friend Bill France Jr. and helped Charlotte land the Hall of Fame, was impressed with how the Hall itself turned out.

“I had no idea how magnificent it was going to be,” Hendrick said. “I walked with my wife into the building on Saturday and couldn’t get enough of it. I wanted to see more of it. I’m proud we have something this fantastic in the sport. It is way more than I ever dreamed it could be.” The ceremony matched the building. It was full of honest, real emotion. Whatever the grand opening ceremony lacked a few days ago, the induction ceremonies more than made up for it.

WHO’S NEWS

---

The NBA won’t tolerate its teams talking about prospective free agents yet. The league fined Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban $100,000 Saturday for comments made about free-agent-to-be LeBron James that violated the league’s anti-tampering rules. Phoenix Suns president Steve Kerr also was fined $10,000 for comments he made in a radio interview. Teams are not allowed to talk about another team’s players until July 1, when free agency opens. Commissioner David Stern said recently that his clubs had done well following the rules, even as fans and the media continue to speculate about what James might do. Asked on Tuesday night before the draft lottery about what teams were allowed to do, Stern said: “Come July 1, just about everything goes. Before July 1, nothing goes.” In an interview this week, Cuban said “anybody” would be interested in James. Cuban said it would be tough to sign the twotime MVP in free agency, but said the Mavericks would have a chance if James told the Cavaliers to arrange a signand-trade deal.

Czechs beat Russia 2-1 in worlds final COLOGNE, Germany (AP) — The Czech Republic captured the hockey world championship, ending Russia’s 27-game tournament winning streak with a 2-1 victory on Sunday.

Pavel Datsyuk cut Russia’s deficit to a goal with 35.3 seconds left in the game, but it wasn’t enough. The Czechs how won the world championship title six times since the separation of Czechoslovakia. Russia, the record 25-time champions, hadn’t lost in this tournament since 2007. In the bronze medal game, Jonas Andersson scored twice in the third period to lift Sweden to a 3-1 victory over host Germany.

The Pirates averaged only two runs while dropping seven of their previous eight at home.

Celtics send Magic to brink BOSTON (AP) – There were still 20 seconds left in the game when Paul Pierce decided he didn’t need to see any more and headed to the locker room. In the hallway, he repeated aloud: “One more. One more.” Pierce helped the Celtics open a 16-point, first-quarter lead, then watched as Rajon Rondo and Glen “Big Baby” Davis helped Boston coast to a 94-71 victory over the Orlando Magic and take a 3-0 lead in the bestof-seven Eastern Conference finals. The most-decorated team in NBA history, the Celtics are one win away from their second trip to the finals in three years – and their 21st in all. No NBA team has ever lost a playoff series after winning the first three games. “We’re motivated for what’s at stake. We see the big picture,” said Pierce, who was the finals MVP when Boston won its

record 17th NBA title in 2008. “We were coming home for two games on our home court. We’re motivated. We can feel it. Guys know what its like to win a championship and play for a championship.” The Magic have to win Game 4 tonight to avoid a sweep and force the series back to Orlando. They’ll need a better effort than in Game 3, when they fell behind early for the third straight game. This time, they didn’t even mount a late charge to make it close. Pierce had 15 points and nine rebounds, Ray Allen scored 14 and Garnett added 10 points in just 24 minutes. Davis scored 17 points, and Rondo added 11 points and 12 assists. One game after scoring 30 points, Dwight Howard had just seven and seven rebounds. Vince Carter and Jameer Nelson had 15 points apiece.

Kris Versteeg added an empty-net goal with 42 seconds left, and the redclad fans at the United Center erupted.

Day takes Nelson, teenager Spieth ties for 16th THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

IRVING, Texas – Jason Day nearly dropped out of the Byron Nelson Championship before it began. He wound up winning the tournament – even though most folks likely will remember Jordan Spieth as the big winner. Day fought through a rocky final round for a 2-over 72, but it was good enough to give the 22-year-old Australian the first win of his PGA Tour career. Spieth, a 16-year-old junior at a local high school, was within three shots of the lead on the final nine holes, but dropped back into a tie for 16th. He shot a 2-over 72 and his 4-under 276 was six strokes behind Day.

Kanaan overcomes crash to make Indy 500 field INDIANAPOLIS (AP) – Tony Kanaan spent all weekend cramming to get into the Indianapolis 500. He barely made it. Two crashes in less than 24 hours sent Kanaan’s team scrambling to get the No. 11 car back together, and the 2004 IndyCar Series champ aced the biggest test of his career with a four-lap qualifying

average of 224.072 mph to get his car on the starting grid with 30 minutes left in qualifications. All he had to do was wait to see if the speed would hold up, which it did. “You live, you learn, and we crashed. Today was just a nightmare,” he said after getting the 32nd starting spot in the 33-car field. See the full grid on 2D.

Venus Williams returns the ball to Switzerland’s Patty Schnyder during their first-round match in the French Open at the Roland Garros stadium in Paris on Sunday.

Venus cruises in French opener PARIS (AP) – Whistles and whispers circulated through the stands at Court Suzanne Lenglen on Sunday, a reaction brought about not by Venus Williams’ play at the French Open, but rather by her outfit. With a lacy, black overlay giving it the illusion of being see-through, and bright red trim on the bodice, Williams’ corset-like get-up made her look as if she were ready to perform in a 19th century Parisian cancan chorus line.

The red clay of Roland Garros never has been Williams’ best stage – her seven Grand Slam titles all came at Wimbledon or the U.S. Open. At this year’s French Open, she is assured of at least one more performance, thanks to a 6-3, 6-3 victory over former top-10 player Patty Schnyder of Switzerland in the first round. Williams explained that her look was “about illusion,” which, she noted, is “a lot of my motif this year” when it comes to clothes design.

Women’s defending champion Svetlana Kuznetsova won in straight sets. Only one seeded man departed. No. 23 Ernests Gulbis of Latvia stopped because of a right thigh injury while trailing Julien Benneteau of France 6-4, 6-2, 1-0.

Myers works hard for Bowman Gray win SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE

WINSTON-SALEM – “They made me work my tail off tonight,” said Burt Myers after taking the checkered in the USG Modified 50 late Saturday night at Bowman Gray Stadium. In just 50 laps, Myers had to deal with more than many drivers do in an entire season. After Tim Brown of Cana, Va. qualified on the pole, a redraw of the top six positions put brothers Burt and Jason Myers, both Walnut Cove residents, right up on the front row for the start of the race. Pole-sitter Jason pushed hard to grab the lead during the opening start, but Burt was able to muscle past him on the outside to claim the lead. Almost as soon as the green

flag came out, the caution flag was waving for the first of several cautions on Saturday. With the always entertaining Double-File “Choice” Restart Rule in effect for the USG Modified 50, Tim Brown got the chance to take to the outside and challenge Myers. Myers defended his lead, but another caution on lap 7 would put him right back in the same situation with Brown to his outside. This time, the No. 83 of Brown powered past Myers to grab the lead. But Brown’s time at the front was short-lived as a few hard taps from Myers allowed Myers’ #1 car to slip back and reclaim his spot as leader. “We got together on the restart, and I got the lead,” said Brown. “Our car was just a little tight for the 50-

lapper and it let him get under there and give me a shot to get by me,” said Brown, who became caught on the outside row and fell back to fifth. Myers’ work was just beginning: eight more cautions in the next 30 laps gave Brian Loftin of Lexington eight chances to try and steal Myers’ lead from the outside. Myers was able to stay up front, but it was no cake walk. “It makes you work, even though you’ve got the preferred line. You still have to do everything just right,” said Myers about the restarts. Brian Loftin put up a fight, a few times driving door-to-door with Myers as they battled for position. “It was a little frustrating because we just couldn’t get any green flag laps,” said Loftin. “I wanted the cautions

so I could get up beside him and have a shot at him. But we couldn’t even get two or three laps in. One time, we ran side by side for about a lap and a half until a caution came out. It was frustrating, but it was still a lot of fun,” said Loftin. The win was Myers’ 41st at the historic quarter-mile. Rookie Zach Brewer of Winston-Salem finished second, with Brian Loftin coming in third. In the Webb Heating & A/C Co. Sportsman Series, Taylor Branch of Lewisville brought home the win in the first 20lap race on Saturday. Kyle Edwards of King and Derek Stoltz of Walkertown finished in second and third. Gary Ledbetter of Lexington claimed victory in the second 20-lapper, with Robbie Brewer

of Winston-Salem taking second. Brad Smith of Winston-Salem claimed third. In the 104.1 WTQR Street Stock Series, Saturday was the K&N Filters Street Stock 50 – the largest and most prestigious race of the season for the Street Stock class. John McNeal of Winston-Salem tapped Doug Wall of Pfafftown out of the way to claim the lead and the win. Matt Cotner of Rural Hall finished second, and Reggie Doub of Germanton finished third. A.J. Sanders flew from 23rd up to the front to take the checkered in the first 15-lapper for the Time Warner Cable Stadium Stock Series on Saturday. Jimmy Absher of Rural Hall was the winner of the second 15-lap race.

Strike looms as British Air contract talks crash LONDON (AP) – Thousands of British Airways cabin crew looked set to go on strike at midnight after talks between their union and the airline ended in confusion. But the union made a last-minute offer Sunday to stop the walkout if the airline reinstates travel perks stripped from staff who took place in earlier strikes. Tony Woodley, joint leader of the Unite union, said

his message to BA chief executive Willie Walsh was “Willie, turn round and reinstate our people’s travel without the unnecessary vindictive removal of their service and this union will call off tonight’s strike.” British Airways’ response was cool. In a statement, the airline said it was “disappointed that Tony Woodley has taken to negotiation through the media” rather than mediators.

BA said it had “already offered to reinstate travel concessions to cabin crew once all elements of our offer have been implemented.” BA cabin crew are due to hold a series of strikes totaling 15 days in a long-running dispute over jobs, pay and working conditions. The first of the walkouts is due to last five days. Earlier, Woodley had said there was no chance of resuming negotiations before

the strike deadline after the chaotic breakup of talks on Saturday. Those discussions, at the offices of a mediation service, ended abruptly when left-wing protesters broke into the building. Woodley said the talks had made “fantastic progress” and an agreement was close. “We’ve got an agreement on the business issues in principle,” he said. The airline says it plans to operate most of its flights

during the strike, including more than half of flights from London’s Heathrow airport and all scheduled services at Gatwick. The strikes would bring more financial hardship to BA, which posted a record annual loss of 425 million pounds ($611 million) on Friday. Two cabin crew walkouts over seven days in March cost BA an estimated 45 million pounds in canceled flights and contingency provisions.

WASHINGTON (AP) – Sales of previously occupied homes likely rose 5.2 percent in April as government incentives provided temporary fuel to the housing market. Economists polled by Thomson Reuters forecast the National Association of Realtors say sales rose to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 5.63 million, up from 5.35 million in March. Thefederalgovernment provided a big boost to home sales this spring by offering first-time buyers a tax credit of 10 percent of the purchase price, up to $8,000. There’s also a credit of 10 percent, up to a maximum of $6,500, for homeowners who want to upgrade. The tax credit’s impact is likely to show up in the home sales report for several months. But the fate of the housing market for the rest of the year is uncertain. Without the tax credit, mortgage applications to purchase homes fell to the lowest level in 13 years last week, according to the Mortgage Bankers Association. If sales don’t pick up, prices could slump as well, especially as more foreclosed homes hit the market.

Investors take slump in stride NEW YORK (AP) – Maybe the dumb money isn’t so dumb after all. Individual investors always seem to jump into stock rallies when they should be getting out. But after two crashes in 10 years, the little guy decided to stay on the sidelines this past year – and played the fool again. Stocks just kept going up and up. Well, at least until this month. The professionals who have been pushing shares higher for 14 months dis-

covered during the past few weeks something Main Streeters caught on to a while ago: Stocks are dangerous. “They were always thinking stocks were going to go back down again,” Mark Luschini, chief market strategist at Janney Montgomery Scott, says of individual investors. “The scar from investment declines hasn’t gone away.” Though markets rallied Friday, most major stock indexes are down now about 10 percent from

their late April peaks. Such reversals, called “corrections,” are common during a bull market, and many analysts believe this market was long due for one. Still, investors – professionals as well as individuals – are unnerved. One measure of market jitters is the VIX, a market indicator commonly referred to as the fear index, which tracks expectations of big swings in stocks. From late April, the index has nearly tri-

pled to levels not seen in over a year. Some market observers say the fact that professional investors have been selling recently is less worrisome than their doing so indiscriminately. David Marcus, CEO of Evermore Global Advisors in Summit, N.J., says he’s using the market drop to buy a little. “We like to go where there’s panic, because in the midst of the crisis you get the best opportunities,” he said.

Court’s inaction brings end to furniture makers’ lawsuit MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

A seven-year legal battle that once threatened to spark a civil war in the domestic home-furnishings industry appears headed for a quiet, and financially satisfying, ending for 22 U.S. manufacturers. Whether it will help to finally heal some still-tender wounds remains to be seen. The U.S. Supreme Court decided last week not to hear a case regarding anti-dumping duties and the since-repealed Byrd Amendment pursued by SKF USA Inc., a maker of ball bearings. The significance of the decision is that it likely removed the last legal obstacle to the 22 manufacturers divvying up – on a pro-rata

DILBERT

basis – $137 million in duties collected from a group of Chinese wooden bedroom furniture manufacturers. The U.S. Commerce Department ruled in November 2004 that those manufacturers dumped products into the U.S. market at artificially low prices. It’s unclear when the surviving members of the American Furniture Manufacturers Committee for Legal Trade – led by Bassett Furniture Industries Inc., Stanley Furniture Co. Inc. and VaughanBassett Furniture Co. Inc. – would receive the held-up money. What makes the issue so divisive is that a group of seven U.S. furniture manufacturers and marketers, including Ashley Furniture Industries Inc., Ethan Allen Inte-

riors Inc. and Furniture Brands International Inc., filed a lawsuit claiming they should benefit from the duties even though they didn’t participate in the 2003 petition. Those manufacturers made a similar argument to SKF – that under free speech laws, they did not have to support the petition to benefit from the duties if they were affected by the dumping. “The Supreme Court’s recent order denying review puts an end to the litigation and represents a major victory for domestic industries that have been harmed by injurious dumping,” the coalition said in a statement. In filings with the U.S. Customs and Border Protection – the agency responsible for holding onto

the disputed duties – the seven manufacturers made combined claims that could have been valued at $108 million. What galls some industry observers is Furniture Brands’ claim for $25 million in duties even though it aggressively opposed the petition when the issue came to a head at the 2004 spring and fall High Point Markets. Furniture Brands joined the Furniture Retailers of America – mostly big-box retailers dependent on lower-cost imported products – in claiming the duties essentially were a hidden tax on consumers. At that time, Furniture Brands was accelerating the taking of its production offshore. Even though the Supreme Court

decision essentially ended the free-speech claim, the legal battles regarding the duties are not over. The U.S. International Trade Court will rule later this year whether the dumping of wooden bedroom furniture from China continues to cause “material injury” to domestic manufacturers. Remnants of the Furniture Retailers of America are expected to argue against that claim. “The opposing group has argued that the loss of jobs was inevitable and duties would not prevent it,” said Doug Bassett, a spokesman for the manufacturers’ coalition and a vice president of sales for Vaughan-Bassett. “We believe members of this coalition are proof that’s not the case.”

Gas prices drop more than 9 cents CAMARILLO, Calif. (AP) – The average price of regular gasoline in the United States has dropped 9.25 cents over a two-week period to $2.83. That’s according to the national Lundberg Survey of fuel prices released Sunday.

Analyst Trilby Lundberg says the average price for a gallon of midgrade was $2.97. Premium was at $3.08. Jackson, Miss., had the lowest average price among cities surveyed at $2.62 a gallon for regular.

San Francisco was highest at $3.10. Diesel was at $3.09, down 5.56 cents from two weeks ago. In California, the average price for a gallon of regular dropped 6.85 cents to $3.05.

As spill grows, oil soaks delicate marshes, birds COVINGTON, La. (AP) – The dire impact of the massive Gulf spill was apparent Sunday on oilsoaked islands where pelicans nest as several of the birds splashed in the water and preened themselves, apparently trying

A pelican colony off Louisiana’s coast was awash in oil Saturday.

An oil-soaked pelican is seen on an island in Barataria Bay just inside the the coast of Louisiana, Sunday. The island, which is home to hundreds of brown pelican nests as well as terns, gulls and roseate spoonbills, is impacted by oil from the Deepwater Horizon oil spill.

to clean crude from their feet and wings. Pelican eggs were glazed with rust-colored gunk in the bird colony, with thick globs floating on top of the water. Nests sat precariously close the mess in mangrove trees. As oil crept farther into the delicate wetlands in Barataria Bay off Louisiana, BP officials said Sunday that one of their efforts to slow the leak wasn’t working as effectively as before. BP spokesman John Curry told The Associated Press on Sunday that a mile-long tube inserted into the leaking well siphoned some 57,120 gallons of oil within the past 24 hours, a sharp drop

from the 92,400 gallons of oil a day that the device was sucking up on Friday. However, the company has said the amount of oil siphoned will vary widely from day to day. Engineers are working furiously to stem the growing ooze as more wildlife and delicate coastal wetlands are tainted despite the oil-absorbing booms placed around shorelines to protect them. A pelican colony off Louisiana’s coast was awash in oil Saturday, and an Associated Press photographer saw several birds and their eggs coated in the ooze while nests rested in mangroves precariously close to the crude that had washed in. Workers had surrounded the island with the booms, but puddles of oil had seeped through the barrier. Meanwhile, three top Obama administration officials are returning to the Gulf Coast to monitor the spill response. Anger with the government and BP, which leased the rig and is responsible for the cleanup, has boiled over as the spill spreads. U.S. Environmental Protection Agency chief Lisa P. Jackson was headed Sunday to Louisiana.

NJ woman with MS charged with killing husband MORRISTOWN, N.J. (AP) – A mother of three who has multiple sclerosis and uses a wheelchair was charged with fatally shooting her husband inside their northern New Jersey home. Family members said the couple were planning to end their 19-

year-marriage, but authorities have not determined a motive. Amalia Mirasola, 44, was charged with homicide and a weapons offense one day after her 43-year-old husband, Carl, was found mortally wounded in a bedroom at their Butler home.

Amalia Mirasola remained in the county jail on Sunday afternoon. Bail was set at $1 million. Her lawyer, Robert Stack, has said she has no memory of what happened inside the home. Butler police said the shooting was reported shortly after 8 a.m.

by someone who made a 911 call from the home, but further details have not been disclosed. The couple’s children – a 13year-old daughter and 7-year-old twins – were home at the time of the killing, but authorities would not say whether they witnessed

it. Relatives say the daughter called her paternal aunt in Florida to tell her about the shooting. The woman then repeatedly asked the girl to check on her father, but she refused, and instead stayed inside another room in the house with her brothers.
