Board delays decision on furloughs, salary cuts BY DAVID NIVENS ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

GUILFORD COUNTY – With a new set of state budget figures in hand, school district officials decided Thursday to wait at least a few weeks to see if they need to use furloughs or salary cuts to balance the 2011 district budget. The State Senate issued a set of numbers this week lower than budget adjustments proposed by Gov. Beverly Perdue last month. While the

governor’s adjustments could cost the school district an additional $10.8 million, the Senate adjustments are half that at about $5.2 million. The major difference is that the Senate plan offers no raises or restoration for earlier furloughs. Perdue proposed restoring a teacher longevity-based salary increase of about 1.8 percent. Teachers would get a one-time bonus to make up for a furlough last year that cost them 0.5 percent of their salaries.

Superintendent Mo Green has proposed a two-day furlough or pay reduction as part of additional cuts if the district has to cut more than the $29 million anticipated in his $651 million 2011 budget. The Board of Education voted 6-0 to wait on better state budget figures before deciding on furloughs. State officials are expected to issue guidelines for furloughs, Green said. “The Senate and

Job service officials see some reason for hope

THOSE WHO SERVED: Annual memorial service set at Floral Garden. 1B

BY PAUL B. JOHNSON ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

WINSTON-SALEM – Like an area emerging from a hard winter, the Piedmont’s employment market may be beginning to thaw from a long, brutal period of job losses, state employment officials said Thursday. That doesn’t mean the pain is any less for tens of thousands of people in the region who remain out of work because of the worst recession since the Great Depression. But recent indications reflect employers are showings signs of hiring, giving some measure of hope for North Carolinians seeking a paycheck, N.C. Employment Security Commission staff members said. The board of the ESC met Thursday at the West Campus of Forsyth Technical Community College in Winston-Salem. Robert Ware, manager of the ESC region for a 12-county area in the Piedmont Triad, said he’s more optimistic about job development than at any time since the onset of the recession in late 2007. “More staffing agencies are coming to our offices testing the waters,” Ware said, referring to employment agencies seeking applicants for openings. Another sign is that ESC offices in the Piedmont are

The shift in prospects for the economy was reflected in the area last week. On May 20, two employers announced major initiatives that eventually will create 450 jobs. Vitacost.com Inc., an online retailer of health and wellness products, will expand its Davidson County

The ESC recently contacted 12,000 employers across the state and received responses from 2,000, which led to 4,000 job orders. A year ago at this time, the ESC probably would have received little response from employers with openings. Since December, the ESC has recorded job growth during three of

GUILFORD COUNTY – A state trooper’s patrol car involved in a fatal accident last weekend was traveling an estimated 95 mph when it collided with another vehicle, according to the N.C. State Highway Patrol’s preliminary report on the crash released Thursday. Trooper J.D. Goodnight was pursuing a suspected speeder on Interstate 85 Business Loop just east of High Point at an estimated 120 mph when a Honda Accord driven by Sandra Allmond of Thomasville attempted to turn left onto River Road into the path of the trooper’s oncoming Dodge Charger about 11:45 a.m. Sunday, the report stated. Witnesses said Goodnight

veered to the right to try to avoid a collision, but was unable to do so. Allmond, 55, was killed in the crash, as was 11-year-old Taylor Strange of Jamestown. Two other children in Allmond’s car – her grandson, 11-year-old Elijah Allmond, and 9-year-old Steven Strange – were injured and have been released from the hospital. Goodnight, 40, a 10-year Highway Patrol veteran, initially was headed northbound when he clocked a blue Buick Skylark traveling south at 80 mph in a 55 mph zone. He crossed the highway median to turn around and pursue the vehicle. Witnesses stated the car’s blue lights were activated but they did not hear a siren, the report stated. Allmond’s car was in the Business 85 northbound left turn lane

N.C. Employment Security Commission officials say they are seeing signs of a positive turnaround in the job market. But the loss of jobs during the recession shows how far the state job market has to recover. The state has endured a net loss of 267,500 jobs since December 2007. Employers would have to add 4,458 net jobs a month on average for the next 60 months to return to the state’s employment level in December 2007, the ESC reports.

The car failed to yield, entered the intersection and was struck by Goodnight’s vehicle, according to the report. “He busts through an intersection at 120 mph – that is gross negligence. That officer was out of control,” said Gerald Allmond of Jamestown, Sandra Allmond’s son and Elijah Allmond’s father. “He was not respectful of all the other vehicles around him. ...

We don’t want them to happen like this, but we try to rely on our training to ensure that everybody’s safe.” The Highway Patrol’s investigation is ongoing and is looking into whether Goodnight’s siren was activated, among other issues. A final report on the crash is expected in six to eight weeks. In addition, officials said an outside investigation into the crash will be conducted through the N.C.

Bowles: UNC system could lose 1,700 jobs with House plan

AP

President Barack Obama poses with members of the NCAA basketball champion Duke Blue Devils in the Rose Garden of the White House in Washington Thursday.

Obama lauds Duke, takes heat over 2009 basketball prediction WASHINGTON (AP) – This is what you get for ever picking North Carolina, Mr. President. President Barack Obama on Thursday heaped praise on the Duke men’s basketball team for winning the NCAA championship last month– a Blue Devils squad that capped its run in one of the more exciting title games in recent memory, a 61-59 contest against upstart Butler that came down to the final shot. But standing in the Rose Garden on a sticky day, Obama was still taking heat for (correctly)

picking North Carolina, Duke’s rival, to win it all in 2009. Duke’s coach, Mike Krzyzewski, bristled a bit at Obama at the time and said the president should stick to fixing the economy. The two have since made up. “It was nothing personal,” Obama joked on Thursday with the coach and team standing behind him. “Just trying to win some money.” A smiling Krzyzewski returned the favor by giving Obama a framed copy of this year’s winning bracket – with

Duke right in the center. Obama lauded Duke for growing as a team and being part of its community. After their moment at the White House, the players and coaches were headed to the Pentagon to thank members of the military and then to Arlington National Cemetery to pay respects. The president commended the coach for his style, quoting Krzyzewski’s philosophy as saying a team is like a hand, which can attack with more force when it comes together like a fist. “Very

subtle, coach,” Obama said. The hoops-loving Obama spent time talking to the players and taking photos before the ceremony. It came on a day when he also was announcing his latest steps on the Gulf Coast oil spill, holding a news conference, meeting privately with former President Bill Clinton and hosting Liberian President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf. “For him to take the time out to greet us in such a way is just terrific,” Krzyzewski said.

State Legislature gives final approval to school reforms RALEIGH (AP) – North Carolina districts would have more options to try to fix repeatedly failing public schools in a bill given final approval Thursday at the Legislature, a move that gives Gov. Beverly Perdue a lastminute boost for the state’s next federal grant application. The measure passed 21-19 and now heads to Perdue’s desk, where she intended to sign it into law Thursday evening so it could be inserted into the state’s Race to the Top application that’s due in Washington early next week, officials said. North Carolina wants to win up to $400 million. The package lays out four options for local education leaders to use to improve more than 130 continually low-performing schools – those where less than half of the state have failed on end-of-grade or end-of-course

awards announced in March. Charter school proponents didn’t like that the bill failed to lift the state’s cap of 100 regular charter schools, which hasn’t changed in 14 years. Instead, it created what they called “charter-lite” schools that won’t help the state’s application. “The purpose of this is mainly, quite frankly, to draw down federal dollars,” Senate Minority Leader Phil Berger, R-Rockingham. “Federal money is not just money that falls out of the sky.” Other methods the State Board of Education could authorize local districts to use to help continually low-performing schools include increasing learning time and improving teacher performance; removing the principal and many teachers; and simply closing the school.

test two of the past three years. The biggest change would allow districts to “restart” a typical school by giving it the same flexibility as a charter school without making it independent from the district. Charter schools are exempt from many rules of most public schools and can test innovative learning techniques or focus more on children at risk of failure. “It will strengthen North Carolina’s goal for making all schools successful and making sure all students receive a quality education,” Perdue said in a statement. But Republicans and a handful of Democrats were uncomfortable with the bill, which went through both chambers in a week – accelerated because of the Race to the Top application.

Nun foils wallet theft with reprimand PITTSBURGH (AP) – A Pittsburgh thief turned out to be no match for a little nun with a commanding voice. Sister Lynn Rettinger didn’t even have to break out a ruler for a man who reached into an opened car window and stole a wallet Tues-

day. She just needed the tone of voice she’s used for nearly 50 years in Catholic schools. After a teacher saw the man swipe the wallet, the 5-foot-3 principal of Sacred Heart Elementary School went outside and firmly told the man: “You need to give me what

you have.” The thief turned over the wallet, apologized and walked away. Rettinger said she merely talked to him as she would to students when she knows they have something they shouldn’t. Police are still looking for the man.

RALEIGH (AP) – More public school teachers would be protected from layoffs and the University of North Carolina system would take a bigger financial hit under a House budget plan approved Thursday by a key committee that diverges from a spending proposal offered by the Senate. The education subcommittee, which proposes spending for more than half of the state’s budget, would use $90 million in North Carolina Education Lottery profits beyond what the Senate recommended in the budget it approved last week to hire teachers to reduce class sizes in early grades.

House are moving faster than expected and we may have a budget by July,” Green said. “That would be different than we are used to. Furloughs are low on the list for me, but we may have to eliminate jobs if we do not do furloughs.” The current state budget eliminates an additional $9 million in district funding for 20102011 to reach an estimated $29 million state cut. The set of $10.8 million or $5.2 million adjustments would be added to that. “Furloughs should be a last resort,” said board member Paul Daniels.

Obama’s invitation was a slap in the face Our so-called president has really slapped the American people down. Inviting Felipe Calderon to come to Washington, D.C., for a state dinner was inappropriate. He is telling us he doesn’t give a damn about us. Gov. Perdue’s office said Mexicans can’t get food stamps or Medicaid; that is a bunch of bull. The Mexicans get more help than we do. What is going to happen when every American citizen has to have insurance or be fined? The Mexicans probably will not be fined as they are not American citizens. Just look around, they have our jobs while we are going to shelters or getting foreclosures. Go to any construction site, you have more Mexicans than Americans, they work for less money. Go out to a restaurant, they have taken over, while we have to watch our dimes and nickels.

If we went to Mexico and said the things (Calderon) said, we would be put in jail.

Look at the cars they drive, newer and better than most of ours. Calderon wants them here because look at all the money they send back. If we went to Mexico and said the things he said, we would be put in jail. They need to impeach Obama for letting illegals take over what is ours. He cares more for illegals than for us. I wish Gov. Perdue had the guts to do what the governor of Arizona did but all she does is pussyfoot around and didn’t come here when the tornado struck.

Recent events are making my hair stand out May I say a few words – my words! Does it make the hair on your legs stand out when you hear the

podium-pounding preacher asking God to damn America? Note: He was our president’s pastor for 20 years! I ask God to forgive him for he knows not what he is saying! Does it make the hair stand out on your legs to hear the president of Mexico trash the great state of Arizona for passing a law to curb the influx of illegal Mexicans into their state! His nation has a much harsher law than what Arizona proposes. And to see our president agreeing with him saying this. The Arizona law is much less harsh than the U.S. federal law. Does it make the hair on your legs stand out when a big-time politician tries to explain why he said he served in Vietnam, when he never did serve there? My hair stands out when I see our country going in the direction of Third World countries. The country is doing this with the help of our Chicago mob that is in Washington.

Here are three responses: • Palin is not presidential material. She has no international experience at all. Look at all the mistakes she made as vice presidential candidate. She would be an embarrassment to the USA. • The successful governor of a large state most definitely qualifies Palin to be president of the United States. Compare her experience to what we have now, an ACORN organizer! • No. She allowed hunting of wolves from planes in Alaska.

OUR VIEW

he economic downturn’s impact on school system budgets all across the United States has been felt here. As school systems looked for savings during the past couple of years, many of them reduced funding for school bus purchases, and that has had a direct impact on High Point-based Thomas Built Buses. As school systems reduced funds for replacing their school bus fleets, they canceled or delayed plans for school bus purchases, and that includes the state of North Carolina. The impact at Thomas has been slowed production and layoffs of around 300 during the last several months. But this week, there is good news about Thomas Buses. On Thursday, the Enterprise reported that 99 previously laid-off workers have been recalled to the production lines because the company has won major orders for buses from two states. The work will keep the additional employees busy for several months, according to John Crawford, president of UAW Local 5287, which represents some employees at Thomas. Of course, in this business climate, uncertainty rules, and we don’t know how long this boost in business might last. But it’s still a boost that gives 99 workers jobs for the next several months. Certainly, the tough times aren’t over for businesses and for Thomas in particular, as evidenced by the N.C. Legislature’s ongoing efforts to reduce expenses to cover revenue shortfalls. A proposed budget in the Legislature cuts about $12 million from funds for replacing school buses, which could again impact Thomas and its employee numbers. While we understand the need for the state to cut back some of those funds in order to cover the budget shortfall, we urge legislators to remember that we also don’t want to see the future leaders of our state riding around in rickety school buses or school buses that are aging and could develop problems. As legislators make cuts, they should not sacrifice safety, especially that of our children who ride school buses.

So goes Hawaii, so goes the nation in November?

A

s Washington sorts through last weekend’s Pacific upset and victory by Republican candidate Charles Djou in Hawaii’s heavilyDemocratic 1st Congressional District, I believe there are emerging indicators of how Hawaii could be a bellwether of sorts for November. Yes, Congressman-elect Djou garnered 39 percent of the vote in a three-way special election in which two Democrats essentially brought each other down with their bickering and failure to cede the stage. Conventional wisdom holds that, when Djou is forced to run against just one Democratic opponent in less than six months, all will be corrected in Hawaii and Democrats will once again assume control of the seat. But conventional wisdom can’t seem to assign an empirical value to two key factors, and it’s these ingredients that may propel Republicans to the majority in the House of Representatives come November. The first is the candidate himself. A JAG lawyer and Honolulu city councilman, Djou knows how to work a policymaking institution. He’s a solid, formidable legislator with an equally solid agenda – fix Washington and save it from the Party of Debt, er... I mean, the Democrats. Contrast that measured, “outsider” posture against a party long viewed to be out of touch with its constituents, and you have the makings for a Republican to actually keep that seat, even if barely. Just ask Rahm Emmanuel about running the right candidates for tailored districts. There was no mold he tried to fit when recruiting his Democratic team in 2005 and 2006. His motto was, “just win baby!” and he did.

Second, the Republican Party is taking full advantage of what University of Virginia professor Larry Sabato calls the “enthusiasm/frustration gap.” Americans are no doubt frustrated OPINION with the policies of this president and his party Armstrong with little relief in sight. Williams Pair that palpable angst with a renewed enthusiasm that Republicans are actually starting to look like a party with bold ideas and a political backbone again, and you have a winning calculus that widens the gap between Obama voters who turned out in 2008 and those who won’t show in 2010. There’s just little desire this cycle. National Republican Congressional Committee Chairman Pete Session (RTexas) proved that over the weekend in Hawaii – turning out what little party faithful he had in the 1st District, yet also leveraging that frustration voters are feeling enough to pull Djou across the finish line. As Hawaii goes so goes the House? It’s not that far-fetched of a claim. If Republicans can continue to recruit personable, professional candidates with a solid message of fiscal austerity that rides the tidal wave of frustration voters are feeling, then President Obama may have to deal with a Speaker Boehner come 2011.

Tension builds between the Koreas SEOUL, South Korea (AP) – Military tension on the Korean peninsula rose Thursday after North Korea threatened to attack any South Korean ships entering its waters and Seoul held anti-submarine drills in response to the March sinking of a navy vessel blamed on Pyongyang. Separately, the chief U.S. military commander in South Korea criticized the North over the sinking of the South Korean warship Cheonan in which 46 sailors died, telling the communist country to stop its aggressive actions. North Korean reaction was swift. The military declared

Fixing oil spill my responsibility, Obama says WASHINGTON (AP) – Thrown on the defensive, President Barack Obama acknowledged that his administration could have done better in dealing with the biggest oil spill in the nation’s history and misjudged the industry’s ability to cope with a worst-case scenario. Obama will make his second tour of the battered Gulf Coast on Friday. “I take responsibility. It is my job to make sure that everything is done to shut this down,� Obama declared in a lengthy news conference at the White House on Thursday. As he spoke, well owner BP struggled anew to plug the blown well that exploded five weeks ago, killing 11 workers and sending millions of gallons of polluting oil gushing out. Obama’s words marked a clear shift of emphasis for an administration that previously had said it was generally “in charge� but there were limits to what it could do – and that oil giant BP was responsible for stopping the flow and cleaning up the disastrous damage. “Those who think we were either slow on the response or lacked ur-

Diplomat concerned about Somali terror alert HOUSTON (AP) – An alert issued about a member of a Somali terrorist group trying to enter Texas from Mexico could impede efforts by innocent Somalis living in Latin America who are trying to gain asylum in the U.S., a Somali diplomat said Thursday. U.S. Homeland Security has asked law enforcement in Houston to be on the lookout for a suspected member of the al-Shabaab group, an al-Qaida ally based in Somalia. Omar Jamal, first secretary of the Somali mission at the United Nations, said his nation “is in a constant battle with al-Shabaab� and urged American authorities “to be careful who is bad and good in this new alarm.�

gency, don’t know the facts,� said Obama at a White House news conference at which he also announced new restrictions on offshore drilling. Separately, Elizabeth Birnbaum, the head of the Minerals Management Service that oversees offshore drilling, resigned under pressure. Meanwhile, as BP labored for a second day Thursday to choke off the leak at the bottom of the Gulf of Mexico, dire new government estimates showed the disaster has easily eclipsed the Exxon Valdez as the biggest oil spill in U.S. history.

The company announced late in the day that it had suspended shooting heavy drilling mud into the blown-out well 5,000 feet underwater around midnight Wednesday so it could bring in more materials. The procedure known as a top kill was expected to resume Thursday night, but it could be late today or the weekend before the company knows if it has cut off the oil that has been flowing for five weeks. As the world waited, President Barack Obama announced major new restrictions on drilling projects.

WHO’S NEWS

Gardner Barrier was named Assistant Head of School at Westchester Country Day School beginning with the 2010-11 academic year. He also will continue in his position as head of Upper School.

BY PAT KIMBROUGH ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – A local Memorial Day service is planned for this weekend to honor those who served their country. American Legion Post 87 will sponsor the event – scheduled for 2 p.m. Sunday at Floral Garden Memorial Park – which will include a speaker, music, the reading of the names of local veterans who have died within the past year and more. This will be the 62nd year for the service, which previously was sponsored by the Veterans of Foreign Wars and American Legion Post 619. “A wreath will be placed in memory of veterans, there will be flowers there and there will be a huge cross of flags in front of the flagpole in the veteran’s section,” said Elizabeth Shufelt, who has helped organize the service for 20 years. “There will be a special section for Gold Star Mothers whose sons died in battle.” The featured speaker will be Dick Jones, a local freelance writer whose work is featured in The High Point Enterprise. Shufelt said Jones has been involved with the Wounded Warrior Project, a nonprofit organization that assists U.S. servicemen and women who have been severely injured in the line of duty. “A lot of the veterans in that program have a hard time, and he has become involved with the program, and hopefully he will talk about that,” Shufelt said. Music at the service will be provided by Shepherd’s Voice, a family vocal quartet. The cemetery furnishes 100 chairs for the service. Shufelt recommended those in attendance bring lawn chairs to assure adequate seating. The service is in addition to another service that will be held on Saturday in downtown High Point at the Veterans Memorial on High Street, across from the train depot. The Saturday service, which begins at 10 a.m., will feature speakers, a bagpiper and an honor guard presentation. Also, the annual Thomasville Memorial Day Parade will be Monday at 11:15 a.m. in downtown Thomasville on Salem Street. The parade will be preceded by a wreath-laying ceremony at the Vietnam Veterans Memorial at the Interstate 85 rest stop in Davidson County, between Thomasville and Lexington, at 10 a.m. pkimbrough@hpe.com | 888-3531

Smooth sailing DOT suspends most construction for holiday weekend ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

TRIAD – If you’re traveling in North Carolina this holiday weekend, you likely won’t have problems with construction delays. The N.C. Department of Transportation has suspended most road construction on major routes across the state in an effort to help motorists get to their holiday destinations more quickly while cutting down on fuel consumption and costs. Most construction projects along interstates and state and federal highways routes will be suspended beginning at 4 p.m. today until 9 a.m. Tuesday. There are some exceptions, however, including in the Triad. Interstate 85 south in Guilford County will be reduced to two lanes at Exit 113 (N.C. 62) due to construction of the I-73/ U.S. 311 Bypass Also, both directions of Interstate 40 in Greensboro will be reduced to two lanes between mile marker 213 and 214 due to construction of the Bridford Parkway Bridge In other parts of the state, U.S. 17 in Windsor (Bertie County)

is reduced to one lane on the Cashie River Bridge due to construction. Traffic is controlled by signals, but trucks are restricted on this route and detour signs are in place. All motorists are encouraged to use the U.S. 17 Bypass around Windsor to avoid possible delays. Meanwhile, the DOT is offering some tips for navigating the highways during busy holiday travel weekend and the rest of the summer: • Leave early to get a head start on your drive. Travel at non-peak hours when possible. • Stay alert. Even if work is suspended, you may encounter narrowed lanes and traffic shifts in work zone areas. • Be patient and obey the posted speed limit. The penalty for speeding through a marked work zone is $250. • Use alternate routes, when possible, to avoid traffic congestion. Stay informed. Real-time travel information is available over the phone by dialing 511, or online at www.ncdot. gov/travel. NCDOT also now offers Twitter updates for mo-

torists and ferry passengers (visit www.ncdot.gov/travel for more information). To help reduce fuel consumption and save money: • Don’t rush. “Jack-rabbit” starts and hard braking alone can increase fuel consumption by 40 percent, but reduce travel time by only 4 percent. • Use cruise control. Using cruise control on 10,000 miles driven in a year could save you nearly $200 and save more than 60 gallons of fuel, according to the U.S. Department of Transportation. • Remove unnecessary items. An extra 100 pounds in your vehicle can reduce your miles per gallon by up to 2 percent. Wind resistance also can reduce mileage, so avoid using luggage racks, rooftop carriers and ski racks when they are not needed. • Maintain your vehicle. Keeping your tires properly inflated, changing your oil and replacing air filters can all help improve fuel economy.

Cancer kills ex-CBS CEO Michael H. Jordan

Sara Francis Hege

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

THOMASVILLE – Sara Francis Hege, 88, died May 26, 2010, at Thomasville Medical Center. Graveside service will be held at 11 a.m. Friday in Holly Hill Memorial Park. Visitation will be from 10 to 11 a.m. Friday at Thomasville Funeral Home, Thomasville.

Michael H. Jordan, a skilled troubleshooter who held leadership roles at CBS, PepsiCo and Westinghouse, has died from complications related to cancer. He was 73. Jordan was instrumental in crafting the media conglomerate that became the CBS of today as its chairman and chief executive. As the top executive at Westinghouse Electric Corp., he engineered the acquisition of CBS in 1995. He later shed Westinghouse’s industrial businesses and kept the media business. Viacom Inc. bought CBS in 1999 but they parted ways seven years later. CBS CEO Leslie Moonves says Jordan “took over Westinghouse when most thought its demise was inevitable and brought it back to life, transforming the old industrial corporation into one completely focused in the media world.”

Oldest Medal of Honor recipient dies SAN DIEGO (AP) – Retired Navy Lt. John Finn, the oldest Medal of Honor recipient from World War II, died Thursday at his Southern California ranch. He was 100. Finn enlisted in the Navy just before his 17th birthday and went on to become the first man to receive the nation’s highest military award for heroism during the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7, 1941, according to a Navy statement. He was the oldest of 97 Medal of Honor recipients still living. Despite head wounds and other injuries, Finn, the chief of ordnance for an air squadron, continuously fired a .50-caliber machine gun from an exposed position as bullets and bombs pounded the Naval Air Station at Kaneohe Bay in Oahu. He then supervised the rearming of returning American planes. “Here they’re paying you for doing your duty, and that’s what I did,” Finn told The Associated Press before his 100th birthday. “I never intended to be a hero. But on Dec. 7, by God, we’re in a war.” Finn received the Medal of Honor on Sept. 15, 1942, from then-President Franklin D. Roosevelt. He later served as a limited duty officer specializing in anti-aircraft guns in San Diego, Hawaii, Washington, Panama and aboard aircraft carriers, the Navy said. He retired in 1956 after three decades of service, but he continued to help young sailors and stayed active in Navy organizations, Lt. Aaron Kakiel said.

Greensboro seeks to ban release of police phone numbers MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

AP

A young black bear runs loose in downtown Asheville Wednesday. Police say the bear did not appear aggressive. Dozens of gawkers watched and took pictures as it wandered several city blocks before disappearing behind a park.

Bear wanders through downtown Asheville ASHEVILLE (AP) – A black bear took a 45minute stroll through a western North Carolina city during a busy lunch hour. The Asheville CitizenTimes reported that a young bear sauntered through downtown Asheville on Wednesday. Police say the bear did not appear aggressive. Dozens of gawkers watched and took pictures as it wandered several city blocks before disappearing behind a park.

GREENSBORO – Legislators filed two bills in the General Assembly on Tuesday to bar the release of city-issued cell phone numbers used by Greensboro police officers. The proposed bills, aim to classify the phone numbers as records that pertain to criminal investigations, which are exempt from public records laws. Assistant City Manager Denise Turner said the proposals address concerns about calls to officers’ phones from the media at crime scenes. “It was a challenge for them to deal with the requests (of the news media for information) and the work on the scene,� she said. The News & Record made a public records request for the information in May 2009, after several incidents

where its staff had difficulty obtaining breaking news information from the police department in a timely manner. “Our job is to get readers information that may affect them as quickly as possible,� said John Robinson, editor of the News & Record. “Many times, that’s difficult because desk officers don’t have the information the public needs. As a result, to serve our readers, we must be able to reach officers with direct knowledge of the incident. Without that ability, the information we often get is incomplete,� Robinson said. “The officers use cell phones provided by the city, and their cell phones are public information.� The newspaper never received the cell phone numbers from the city, although city staff members said several times that the request was being reviewed by the city’s legal department.

NC Senate gives first OK to more tax breaks RALEIGH (AP) – The North Carolina Senate is willing to give additional tax breaks to attract a few businesses interested in building in the state, potentially creating more than 1,500 jobs. The Senate gave tentative approval Thursday to an incentives package that could cost $39 million through 2015 if companies build and apply for the reductions. Sen. Dan Clodfelter of Charlotte said the bill is aimed at closing the deals

on persuading companies to build two computer data centers, an energy turbine manufacturer and a plant converting wood pulp to paper. The Senate hasn’t identified any of the companies by name. The bill passed 39-4. Sen. Ellie Kinnaird opposed the bill, saying quality education and transportation are among the things that attract companies most. A final Senate vote is expected next week.

Woman hides flaws by showing off her wealth

D

ear Abby: I work with a woman who constantly tells me how much she has – a condo in Florida, a timeshare in the Virgin Islands, her portfolio, the expensive ring her husband bought her and what she spends on wedding/holiday gifts. She even told me about how much she used to make at her previous job. As a struggling single parent, I find it insensitive. How do I deal with this? Is it about my own inadequacies? She is otherwise a seemingly nice lady. My boyfriend says I need to just “get over it.� What do you think? – “Penny Less� in Pennsylvania Dear “Penny Less�: This woman’s constant need to talk about how much she has is less about your “inadequacies� than about her own. People who are happy, secure and socially sensitive don’t usually feel a compulsion to brag about what they have. Once you understand that fact, you may feel less inadequate around her. But if that isn’t the case, resolve to spend more of your time with people who talk about ideas and things you have in common, and less with her. Dear Abby: My mother was physically and verbally abusive to my sister and me when we were kids and teenagers. Mom had a short fuse. She’d slap us if we accidentally dropped a piece of spaghetti or scuffed our

shoes. If she thought we were talking back, she’d really lose it and things ADVICE would get ugly. Dear My sister Abby is a mother ■■■herself now, and her kids are brats. I know it’s because she doesn’t want to be strict or abusive to them like our mother was to us. I am engaged and thinking about a family of my own someday. I don’t know how to discipline children or how to correct their bad behavior without becoming abusive. How can I treat my children with kindness, but still have them behave well and be respectful? – Wants To End The Cycle

Dar Abby: Last year, when I was a freshman in college, my boyfriend, “Charles,� accidentally broke my laptop by closing it on a little bouncy ball. I paid the $800 to have it repaired even though he was the one who broke it because I had the money and he had none. He said he’d pay me back, but it has been a year and I have yet to see any of that money. As a German major, I am required to study in Germany next year and I am strapped for cash. I have reminded Charles about my laptop and he says he’ll repay me, but I know he’s still in a bad place financially. Am I wrong to ask for the entire $800 or should I ask for half the amount? Or should I just forget it since it was an accident? I could use some good advice. – Fraught Fraulein

Black, hairy tongue looks scary but isn’t. The tongue is coated black because tongue papillae have grown long. Usually, they’re periodically shed. Here, they aren’t. Papillae are tiny projections from the surface of the tongue. The tongue looks like you are constantly chewing licorice. Black, hairy tongue is no threat to health. Brushing with baking soda or diluted hydrogen peroxide, three times a day, almost always gets rid of the black color. You also should limit your tea and coffee drinking. Smokers have to stop smoking. In resistant cases like yours, the yeast Candida could be involved. Fluconazole, a medicine that gets rid of this yeast, might be needed. It’s a prescription medicine. DR.

Jingle champs ... again Wesleyan Academy wins $10,000 contest BY JIMMY TOMLIN ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

H

IGH POINT – Second verse, same as the first. High-school choral students at Wesleyan Christian Academy repeated last year’s performance as the grand-prize winners of the annual Harris Teeter “Sing My Jingle” contest, winning another $10,000 for the school this week. Harris Teeter officials presented the check Wednesday afternoon at the school. In addition, Wesleyan’s winning video of the jingle – which was selected from more than 100 entries from high schools across the Southeast – aired on Fox during Wednesday’s night’s broadcast of the “American Idol” finale. “It’s really, really awesome to know that a ton of people will be watching you on TV,” said Ashley Sacks, a 16-year-old rising junior from Oak Ridge. Ashley was one of three soloists who sang in the video, along with Lindsay Barts and Ashley Lowry. They were backed by more than a

dozen members of Servant, a mixed choir at Wesleyan. Participants in the fifth annual jingle competition were given the melody and words to the Harris Teeter jingle, and the challenge was to videotape their own unique arrangement in a format that could air as a commercial for the supermarket chain. Keven Spargo, a fine arts instructor at Wesleyan, created a catchy choral arrangement – similar to what you might see on the hit TV show “Glee” – and the students embraced it and made it their own. “We all knew that we wanted to do the ‘Glee’ style, so Mr. Spargo arranged it for us, and we all loved it,” Ashley Sacks said. “There wasn’t anything we wanted to change about it.” Harris Teeter sponsors the annual competition as part of its Together In Education program. Officials of the grocery chain marveled at the school’s repeat performance as grand-prize winner. “I did not think it was possible for you to create another video that was as good or better than last year’s,” said Scott Haines, director of the

chain’s Skeet Club Road store. “Imagine our excitement when we found out that our panel of judges from Harris Teeter chose Wesleyan Christian Academy as the winner of our fifth annual ‘Sing My Jingle’ contest.” In fact, two other jingles submitted by Wesleyan also earned high praise from the panel of judges. “Our judges watched over a hundred video submissions, and your school’s entry was above and beyond anything else we watched,” Haines said. “If we could’ve awarded a first-, second- and third-place winner, Wesleyan Christian Academy would’ve swept the contest. Each of your three submissions was outstanding.” On Wednesday afternoon, the students wore brightly colored T-shirts proclaiming the school’s accomplishment: “Harris Teeter Sing My Jingle Champions: 2009, 2010.” That night, the students celebrated with a party, at which they watched their winning commercial aired during the “American Idol” finale.

Friday, May 28, 2010 CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Carey Mulligan, 25; Kylie Minogue, 42; Christa Miller, 46; Gladys Knight, 66 HAPPY BIRTHDAY: Plant your feet firmly on the ground and move in a positive direction that suits your needs. Whoever doesn’t come along for the ride isn’t likely to have anything to offer you in the future. Choose your friends and colleagues wisely and get rid of any dead weight or baggage. Honesty will keep you from getting into trouble personally and professionally. Your numbers are 2, 5, 12, 26, 29, 34, 48 ARIES (March 21-April 19): You can get ahead if you are swift to make a move to free up your cash. Money is heading your way, so be smart about the way you invest it. A business trip will lead to an interesting opportunity. ★★★★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Don’t be fooled by an unrealistic offer. You are better off putting your cash in the bank than spending on something that doesn’t live up to its promises. An emotional squabble will be costly if you are reluctant to say no. ★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): It will be difficult to make choices that tug at you emotionally. Be pragmatic or ask someone you know to help you make an important decision. Offer your time, not your cash, to a cause and you will avoid a stressful situation. ★★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): An opportunity you have been feeling uncertain about will become clear. Don’t be afraid of added responsibility. It will allow you to direct the outcome of a situation you are interested in controlling. ★★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Get involved in activities or groups that stimulate you and you will feel alive and ready to conquer the world. Don’t let someone’s disdain for what you are doing stand in your way. Feeling good about who you are and what you can accomplish is what counts. ★★★★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): If you upset someone unintentionally, it will be difficult to make the changes you have been planning. Think and respond rather than reacting harshly. Diplomacy will allow everyone to maintain dignity and have a graceful way out. ★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Don’t just dream about taking a trip or learning something different, do it. The people you meet, once you follow your heart and your dreams, will encourage you to follow through. Your intuition will guide you in the right direction. ★★★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Take advantage of any opportunity that presents itself. A new responsibility will help you realize your potential. Diversify and you will excel in ways you never thought possible. Don’t shun your responsibilities. ★★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Consider what you want and the possibilities you foresee and you can manipulate the situation to fit your needs. Your ability to act impulsively may unnerve someone but your sense of adventure will dominate. You can forge ahead and impress the people watching. ★★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): A simple approach to a new project will make it more appealing. Mix business with pleasure and you will find it easier to seal a deal. A contract or settlement can bring you greater assets and a promising future. ★★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): The changes you make now with regard to the way you live and the things you do for money will have a positive effect on your future. Diversifying will lead to greater independence and a serious partner with lots to offer. ★★★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): You will find it difficult to control your emotions, leaving you in a vulnerable position with a tendency to overreact, making matters worse. Instead, keep busy and focus on work. ★★

After today’s South cuebid four spades to show his ace, North could hardly exclude the possibility of slam. Alas, South’s play precluded any chance of making it. When West led the king of hearts, South secluded himself for a moment, then ruffed in dummy and led a trump to his ace. When West discarded, South was in trouble. He ruffed a heart and led the king of diamonds, pitching a spade. West took the ace and led the ace of hearts, forcing dummy to ruff with the king. East’s jack of trumps had to score, and North watched the play conclude in sadness.

BAD BREAK South’s brain functions were occluded. His plan failed to include handling a 3-0 trump break. South should lead the king of diamonds at Trick Two and pitch a spade. West wins and must lead the ace of hearts, else South will draw trumps ending in dummy and run the diamonds. South ruffs in dummy and takes the AK of trumps. He cashes two diamonds to pitch a spade and a heart and wins the rest without difficulty.

DAILY QUESTION You hold: S K 7 5 H A K 10 8 7 6 D A 7 5 2 C None. You open one heart, and your partner bids one spade. The opponents pass. What do you say? ANSWER: This is a tough problem for “Standard” bidders: No second bid can adequately convey the hand’s potential. You lack the high-card strength for a game-forcing jump to three diamonds, nor can you jump to three spades with only three-card support. Bid two diamonds and hope the auction doesn’t die. South dealer Both sides vulnerable

---

ONE STAR: It’s best to avoid conflicts; work behind the scenes or read a good book. Two stars: You can accomplish but don’t rely on others for help. Three stars: If you focus, you will reach your goals. Four stars: You can pretty much do as you please, a good time to start new projects. Five stars: Nothing can stop you now. Go for the gold.

Newman sets CMS pace BY GREER SMITH ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER

CONCORD – Qualifying for the Coca-Cola 600 on Thursday night turned out to be as predictable as hot temperatures on Memorial Day weekend. Ryan Newman set the pace once again at Charlotte Motor Speedway and will start the 600 from the pole Sunday for the sixth time in the last nine years. Starting from the 600 from the pole ties the record held by David Pearson, who won a CMS-record 14 poles. Newman, who took the 46th pole of his career, is second with nine. Newman zipped to a lap of 187.546 mph in a Chevrolet to nip Saturday night’s All-Star winner Kurt Busch by two-tenths of a sec-

ond. Martin Truex Jr., two-time 600 winner Kasey Kahne and three-time 600 winner Jimmie Johnson completed the top five. Newman The only thing different for Newman this time was his line in the turns. “I ran the high line which I’ve never done before,” Newman said. “That tells you how much the cars and tires have changed, and made me search for the correct line to get that speed.” Newman said he chose the high line in the turns after watching Juan Pablo Montoya set the pace in practice. Montoya had trouble getting around turns three and

four in qualifying and wound up 20th. “The way I ran in practice, I was two-tenth off Montoya,” Newman said. “He was showing us how to do it. I used his line. My crew chief (Tony Gibson) scared me when he said the top five to that point had run the bottom. I decided to go to the top went for it all. When you think it’s right, it’s right. “I’ve never run into a corner 200 miles an hour up next to the wall and make it stick and come out the other side. For me to have the courage to do that was something.” The front row is the same as in 2007 when Newman and Busch were teammates at Penske Racing. Busch was gunning to complete a Penske sweep of the poles here and at the Indianapolis 500.

Truex, the runnerup in the AllStar race was about three-quarters of a second off Newman’s speed, but went much earlier in the qualifying order when more sunlight bathed the track. “I would have like to have had a better draw and won the pole,” Truex said. “But it was about 20 positions better than I usually have qualified here.” Dave Blaney was 17th as the fastest driver who needed to qualify on speed. Bobby Labonte starts 42nd. Brad Keselowski hit the wall coming off turn four on his second lap and will start at the rear of the field. Reed Sorenson, David Stremme Mike Bliss and Max Papis failed to qualify. gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3519

HPU douses Flames SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE

ROCK HILL, S.C. – Behind solid pitching from relievers Drew Dades and Kyle Wigmore as well as timely hitting, No. 4 seed High Point edged No. 2 Liberty 2-1 in Game 8 of the 2010 Big South Baseball Championship on Thursday night at The Winthrop Ballpark. HPU improves to 31-27 and advances to play No. 1 seed Coastal Carolina today at 3 p.m. Liberty falls to 40-18 and will face No. 5 seed Winthrop in an elimination game this morning at 11. Dades took over for injured starter Jaime Schultz in the fifth inning, and proceeded to hold the Flames to just two hits and one unearned run before giving way to Wigmore in the ninth. Dades (2-0) retired nine consecutive hitters during his four official innings on the mound. With High Point clinging to a 2-1 lead in the bottom of the ninth, and with Liberty runners on second and third, Wigmore induced a line out and then struck out Trey Wimmer to end the game. Murray White IV was hit by a pitch to force in Matt Gantner for the 1-0 lead in the sixth. Max Fulginiti went 4-for-4.

Davidson County Community College’s men’s basketball team added another player for next season with the signing of Deon Boyce. Boyce, a 6-foot5 forward/center from Jacksonville High School, scored 17.1 points per game last season. The impressive athlete also pulled down 13.8 rebounds per game – second best in the entire state. “He is a quality person that seems to be very coachable,” Storm coach Matt Ridge said. “He is a rebounding machine and he knows how to win.”

HiToms’ designated hitter David Roney (right) is welcomed back to the dugout after scoring the game’s first run in the HiToms’ home opener against Forest City on Thursday night at Finch Field in Thomasville.

HiToms take home opener, 11-1 BY JASON QUEEN SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE

THOMASVILLE – With the college season still in its final stages, the HiToms only dressed 11 players for their home opener Thursday against defending Coastal Plain League champion Forest City. No problem. Kyle Barbeck threw seven no-hit innings and the Owls committed four errors and threw four wild pitches to help the HiToms roll to an 11-1 win. The HiToms applied constant pressure with 13 hits, roughing up three different Forest City pitchers. All of that was more than enough with Barbeck on the mound. He escaped a bases-loaded, one-out jam in the first with a double play grounder, then breezed through the next six frames with little trouble. HiToms

coach Tom Dorzweiler lifted him after seven innings, with Barbeck’s pitch count at 117. Wes Walker lined a one-out single in the ninth off reliever Ben Grisz, who started the game in right field, to break up the no-hit bid. For Barbeck, it was just good to be on the mound. “It’s kind of a relief to face some live hitters, it’s been a while since I’ve done that,” the redshirt freshman from Ole Miss said. “I had to fight through some walks, but the defense, I can’t thank them enough.” Dorzweiler certainly appreciated not having to make too many scratches on his lineup card. “I was hoping to get six (innings) out of Kyle, and he just started cruising,” he said. “I couldn’t ask any more out of him.” Grisz put the Tommies on the board first with an RBI double in

the bottom of the second. Trinity alum Matt Dillon made it 2-0 when he scored in the third, thanks to a strikeout wild pitch, an error and another wild pitch. Michael Patman’s solo homer and Daniel Kassouf’s two-run single made it 5-0 after three, and the HiToms were rolling. On the night, John Caroll Neese had three hits and Dillon, Kassouf, Rob Froio and Dave Roney added two hits apiece. That approach certainly pleased Dorzweiler. “We struggled last night,” Dorzweiler said about the season-opening loss in Martinsville on Wednesday. “They knew what work had to be done, so they were here at 10:30 in the morning taking BP. They knew what they did wrong, and they came ready to play.”

oe Gibbs enjoys having the hottest two drivers on the Cup circuit in terms of winning. He also might have the two who are hottest at each other, even though they tried to say everything would be fine between them going forward. Kyle Busch and Denny Hamlin said Thursday they are putting their incident in Saturday night’s All-Star race behind them so they won’t damage the effort to bring a fourth championship to JGR. But, Hamlin got in a couple of zingers before making his declaration late in the afternoon after Busch earlier in the day said he still thought Hamlin was in the wrong to try to keep the lead by blocking, a move that resulted in Busch driving into the wall. Busch later crashed out and drove straight to Hamlin’s hauler and waited for Hamlin with Gibbs. Becoming agitated over ques-

tions about the incident on Friday, Busch downplayed the meeting in which Gibbs said they needed to pull together. Asked if he could work with Busch, Hamlin said: “I’m not going to put too much effort in it, to be honest with you. Kyle brings this stuff up himself and he gets mad at the media for asking him questions about his blow-ups and stuff, but he does it to himself. I don’t want to be part of it. ... That’s all I’m going to say and I’m going to be done with it. Each year I think Kyle’s going to grow out of it and he just doesn’t. Until he puts it all together, that’s when he’ll become a champion. Right now he just doesn’t have himself all together.” Hamlin wasn’t done. Later, when asked when he felt the need to mature and be a team leader at JGR, Hamlin leveled another shot saying: “I think when Tony (Stewart) left. I didn’t say that I was going to take over this team or be the leader of this team, but

somebody’s got to be the leader – it ain’t going to be Kyle (Busch).” Ouch. Hamlin said he thought he was in the right as the leader and Busch could have used his brake to avoid hitting the wall. He also said the AllStar race was a special circumstance with its $1 million first prize and no points. If the same situation occurs in the middle of Sunday’s 600, Hamlin said he would get out of Busch’s way. Hamlin later said Busch would use the incident as motivation and he would continue to try to help Busch’s team at the track. “I’m still going to need him,” Hamlin said. “I can’t just cut him off and he can’t just cut me off starting right now. We’re going to need to still work together.” It might now take some more mediation from Gibbs for that to happen.

up points leader Kevin Harvick closed the door Thursday on any possibility he might attempt to win the Nationwide Series championship in addition to competing in all of the Cup races, even though he is third in Nationwide standings and 64 points behind leader Brad Keselowski. Starting next week, the series are at different tracks for a three-week stretch that ends with a weekend in which the Cup Series is at Infineon Raceway near San Francisco and the Nationwide Series is at Road America in rural Wisconsin. Harvick, who drives Nationwide cars from his shop in Kernersville, said the schedule makes racing at Infineon and Road America difficult. “They’ve made it impossible not to take away from both programs with the Road America race,” Harvick said. “If I can’t do all of them, there is no reason to do the whole summer stretch.” Next week Cup is at Nashville and the Nationwide race is in Nashville. The next week finds Cup at Michigan and Nationwide. Harvick said Mike Bliss will be in the No. 33 for those events and a race in St. Louis in October when the Cup series is at Martinsville. Ron Hornaday Jr., who drives for Harvick in the Truck Series, will fill in at Road America and at Indianapolis Raceway Park when the Cup Series is 10 miles away at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. “I said from the beginning I had no intentions of doing them all,” Harvick said. “We’ve won a couple of Nationwide championships, and we really want to win a Cup Championship.”

NO BROTHERLY LOVE Kurt Busch said his brother Kyle was at fault in the incident between Kyle and Denny Hamlin in the AllStar race. Kurt indicated Kyle should have lifted instead of staying in the gas when Hamlin blocked in the 10-lap final segment. Kyle Busch ran into the wall. “He’s run a number of these AllStar races and he’s run all of them at 100 percent,” Kurt Busch said. “You don’t have to run at 100 percent.”

The quarterback was suspended without pay for six games last month by commissioner Roger Goodell after a 20-yearold college student accused him of sexual as-

sault in Milledgeville, Ga. No charges were filed. Roethlisberger underwent a behavioral evaluation as part of the suspension, which could be reduced to four games by Goodell, who will review the case again before the regular season. The Steelers’ next offseason workout is Tuesday, the first of three next week. They have three the following week.

Roddick reaches third round at rainy Roland Garros PARIS (AP) – Maybe this is progress for Andy Roddick on clay: He lost serve seven times Thursday and still won. On a rainy, chilly day at Roland Garros, Roddick endured two delays and difficult conditions to defeat Blaz Kavcic 6-3, 5-7, 6-4, 6-2. The damp weather took some zip off Roddick’s biggest weapon, and for much of the match he was dueling from the baseline on his worst surface. But Roddick has become a more patient player in recent months, and he willingly settled into rallies that often lasted more than two dozen shots. “It was brutal for me out there,” he said. “I couldn’t get my serve to go anywhere, and the ball was just sitting up. It kind of takes away a lot of shots and it makes it just about hitting the ball and running. ... “I don’t know the last time I lost serve seven times and won. So, I mean, it’s bad, but there’s got to be something good in there somewhere, too.” Roddick hadn’t played a match on clay this year when he arrived in Paris, but he’s now above .500 lifetime at Roland Garros – 9-8.

Ana Ivanovic hit another low in her slide since winning the French Open two years ago, losing in the second round to No. 28 Alisa Kleybanova 6-3, 6-0. A former No. 1 player, Ivanovic was unseeded because she’s ranked only 42nd. The defeat marked her earliest exit in six trips to the French Open. “It was a combination of a few things,” Ivanovic said. “I don’t think I played that bad, actually.

Play was delayed for 41⁄2 hours at the start, and there were two later interruptions. In other women’s matches, No. 4-seeded Jelena Jankovic, No. 5 Elena Dementieva and No. 11 Li Na won, while 39-year-old Kimiko Date Krumm lost to Jarmila Groth 6-0, 6-3.

Celtics hope to avoid Bruins’ fate, reach finals BOSTON (AP) – It’s a good thing for the Boston Celtics that the NBA rescinded center Kendrick Perkins’ technical foul and nixed his suspension. He might be the only big man they have left. Perkins was ejected from Boston’s 113-92 loss to Orlando in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference finals on Wednesday night after picking up two technicals in the first half. The league rescinded one on Thursday, clearing Perkins to play in Game 6 when Boston tries for the third time to eliminate the Magic and advance to the NBA finals. “It’s another closeout game on their home court,” Magic forward Rashard Lewis said. “I think the game on Friday will most definitely be the hardest game of the playoffs that we’ve ever faced. They’re a veteran team. They’ll come out with a lot of energy and a lot of heart, and I’m sure they’re not going to want to come back to Orlando.” And, even with Perkins, the Celtics will be shorthanded. Backup Glen “Big

Baby” Davis was diagnosed with a concussion and is likely to miss tonight’s game after blacking out on the court from an inadvertent elbow to the face in Game 5. Rasheed Wallace tweaked his back in the game, and his availability for Game 6 was not immediately known. “We’re not a team that’s going to look and say, ‘Woe is me,’ ” said Celtics swingman Paul Pierce. “Our goal is to win one more game and end the series regardless of who we put out there. That just means guys have got to come together. One guys down, or two guys go down, it’s got to come from everybody.” The Celtics need a victory tonight to avoid a trip back to Orlando for a seventh game, where a Magic victory would make them the first team in NBA history to come back from a 3-0 deficit in a best-of-seven playoff series. “I didn’t like being in a 3-0 hole, but it’s still doable. I don’t think we’ve had a lack of belief,” Orlando coach Stan Van Gundy said. “We can’t go back and get those first three.”

Byrd, Hines elected to College Football Hall of Fame NEW YORK (AP) – Desmond Howard scored two of the most memorable touchdowns in the storied history of Michigan football and struck the pose that Heisman contenders have been mimicking since. Barry Alvarez resurrected a Wisconsin program that looked hopeless on the field and off and went on to become the only Big Ten coach to win consecutive Rose Bowls. The game-breaker and the program-builder are now Hall of Famers.

Howard, Alvarez and the late Pat Tillman were among the 14 newly elected members of the College Football Hall of Fame announced Thursday by the National Football Foundation at a news conference at the Nasdaq Stock Exchange in Manhattan. The others included defensive lineman Dennis Byrd of N.C. State; center Ronnie Caveness of Arkansas; defensive lineman Ray Childress of Texas A&M; guard Randy Cross of UCLA; running

back Sam Cunningham of Southern California; quarterback Mark Herrmann of Purdue; receiver Clarkston Hines of Duke; defensive back Chet Moeller of Navy; halfback Jerry Stovall of LSU; and linebacker Alfred Williams of Colorado. Gene Stallings, who led Alabama to a national title in 1992, was the other coach elected to the Hall of Fame. Howard, who won the Heisman Trophy in 1991, found out from his mother he was elected. The speedy and diminu-

tive receiver dominated the Big Ten in 1991 for the Wolverines, scoring a schoolrecord 23 touchdowns and 138 points. Tillman played linebacker for Arizona State from 1994-97 and gave up an NFL career with the Arizona Cardinals to enlist in the Army in 2002. He was killed while serving in Afghanistan in 2004. The newest class will be inducted in December in New York and enshrined at the Hall of Fame in South Bend, Ind., in the summer of 2011.

Hospital volunteers have barn-raising good time I

t was a Silver Anniversary celebration. The invitations had a silver glow with even the paper shimmering. Although the anniversary was silver … volunteers at High Point Regional Health System are pure gold! In the past 25 years, HPRHS volunteers have given over 1.5 million hours of service. The presence of the volunteers manifest as soon as you enter HPRHS. Volunteers welcome, direct, console, escort, bid adieu always with a cheerful smile. I won’t even begin to calculate the money that ABOUT translates to but I can TOWN calculate the volunteers Mary and their Bogest service as ■■■ ... priceless! They have come a long way, baby, since the volunteer program was conceived in 1985. That first year, volunteers served a total of 5,000 hours. Today, they donate 5,000 hours of service in just one month! A reason to celebrate ... indeed! It was a Grand Ole Opry celebration and the volunteers, many who came directly from HPRHS still adorned in their maroon smocks, arrived at the Barn Dinner Theatre en masse for dinner (lunch, really) and a show, “Ring of Fire: The Music of Johnny Cash.” Although the marquee didn’t flash … this was definitely an SRO notto-be-missed event for the dedicated volunteers. As we arrived, we were escorted to our assigned tables (of four). I was the first to arrive at my table and noticed a beautiful corsage at the table setting next to me. The place card simply said, “Annie.” I was delighted and, yes, I knew which “Annie” would be sitting next to me. It was Annie Riddick, former director of Volunteer Services who retired a couple of years ago. Riddick is one of those people who you meet that you just like immediately (remember lunch, Annie)! I met her years before I even started writing my column when my husband was in the hospital for surgery. We immediately became friends. After what I have told you, it probably wont surprise you that it was Riddick who founded Volunteer Services 25 years ago. Though sitting next to each other, we barely had a chance to speak since she was constantly surrounded by well wishers, hugs and kisses. As the volunteers arrived among the constant din of

conversation among the volunteers … or probably more accurately said … the constant din among friends, I just felt that warm, fuzzy feeling watching the chatter, the laughter, the camaraderie amongst these volunteers. Observing, I saw something that has often been told to me and that is, “I receive more back from giving than receiving.” I saw that adage in motion and that was exemplified by Bobbi Watkins, current director of Volunteer Services, who took the program that Riddick began and has followed in the loving example that Riddick started. Again as I write this, I think of warm and fuzzy. Watkins truly loves her volunteers and she thinks of each and every one of them as one of her family. I would be remiss if I didn’t mention volunteer Hilda Fountain, who at 101 years young, is still going strong. She arrived with Kathleen Killebrew. Both started as a Red Cross volunteers.

Jobless claims drop less than forecast WASHINGTON (AP) — The number of newly laid off workers filing claims for unemployment benefits dropped last week but the level still remained higher than expected, indicating only modest improvements in the job market. Applications for unemployment benefits fell by 14,000 to 460,000 last week, the Labor Department reported Thursday. Analysts had expected the level would fall further to 455,000. Economists say they will feel confident about sustainable job creation once weekly first-time claims dip below 425,000. The latest decline came after claims had risen by a revised 28,000 in the previ-

Dubai ruler seeks repayment extension DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — An investment company controlled by Dubai’s ruler said Thursday it is seeking a three-month extension on repaying some of its debt, raising new concerns about the depth of the city-state’s credit woes. Dubai International Capital said in a twoparagraph statement that it and a coordinating committee of some of its banks have asked lenders for an extension “of certain maturities” until Sept. 30.

Oil rebounds as stocks surge NEW YORK (AP) — Oil prices rallied for a second straight day Thursday as investors set aside worries for now about the European debt crisis and focused on rising stock markets and improving economic data. Benchmark crude for July delivery rose $2.84 to $74.35 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange.

Heinz sees income rise in 4th quarter NEW YORK (AP) — Rising revenue in Asia and the Pacific outpaced food maker H.J. Heinz Co.’s growth in the U.S. and Europe and helped its fourth-quarter net income climb 9.8 percent, the company said Thursday. The maker of Ore-Ida potatoes, Classico pasta sauce and its signature ketchup said cutting costs and raising its prices also helped, by making up for rising ingredient prices.

ous week, the largest gain in three months. The latest level of claims is slightly higher than it was at the start of the year, underscoring that the nation’s workers are still facing tough times even though the overall economy is growing again after enduring the worst recession since the 1930s. In a separate report, the Commerce Department said Thursday that the overall economy, as measured by the gross domestic product, grew at an annual rate of 3 percent in the first three months of the year, slightly slower than the 3.2 percent initially estimated. Even though the economy has been growing since last summer, the pace of growth

has not been fast enough to make much of a dent in high unemployment. The jobless rate hit a high of 10.1 percent last October. While it fell to 9.7 percent for three months, it rose again to 9.9 percent in April as disappointed workers began returning to the labor market to search for jobs. Jobless numbers at that level pose a risk to the recovery because they depress consumer spending, which accounts for 70 percent of total economic activity. The four-week average for new jobless claims edged up to 456,500 last week. The government said the number of people receiving benefits fell by 49,000 to 4.64 million for the week ending May 15.

Economic rebound loses steam

WASHINGTON (AP) — The economic rebound last quarter turned out to be slower than first thought, one of the reasons unemployment is likely to stay high this year. The economy grew at a 3 percent annual rate from January to March, the Commerce Department said Thursday. That was slightly weaker than an initial estimate of 3.2 percent a month ago. The new reading, based on more complete information, also fell short of economists’ forecast for 3.4 percent growth. The reasons for the small downgrade: consumers spent less than first estimated. Same goes for business spending on equipment and software. And, the nation’s trade

deficit was a bigger drag on economic activity. “We’re out of recession, but the recovery is not going to bring a whole lot of smiles,” said Joel Naroff, of Naroff Economic Advisors. “At this pace of economic growth, it will take a long time to bring the unemployment rate down to more reasonable levels.” During normal times, growth in the 3 percent range would be considered healthy for the U.S. economy. But the country is coming out the longest and deepest recession since the Great Depression. So economic growth needs to be a lot stronger — two or three times the current pace— to make a big dent in the nation’s 9.9 percent unemployment rate.

J&J draws fire over Motrin problems WASHINGTON (AP) — Johnson & Johnson learned of potential problems with its Motrin formula in 2008, but instead of issuing a recall, hired an outside contractor which began buying up the products, according to congressional investigators. Colleen Goggins, J&J’s president for McNeil consumer products, will testify before House lawmakers Thursday about ongoing quality problems with its over-the-counter medications. Last month McNeil recalled more than 40 vari-

eties of children’s medicines after Food and Drug Administration inspectors discovered a slew of violations at a company plant. Some of the medicines recalled contained tiny particles of metal, though federal health regulators say the risk of health risks is remote. The recall is the latest in a series that threaten to tarnish J&J brands like Tylenol and Benadryl. Lawmakers will question Goggins about the latest problems as well as its handling of a 2009 recall.

Stocks jump on China confidence NEW YORK (AP) — Stocks had another turnaround Thursday and rocketed higher after China reassured investors it doesn’t plan to sell the European debt it holds. The Dow Jones industrial average surged nearly 285 points. Treasury prices tumbled as traders funneled money into riskier assets like stocks and commodities. China’s show of confidence in Europe let the market resume a rally that stalled late Wednesday following a report that the Chinese government was considering cutting its European debt holdings. If that were true, such a move would have signaled that China didn’t think Europe would be able to contain the crisis. The agency that manages China’s $2.5 trillion in foreign reserves denied the report. Analysts also said some bounce has been expected after the slide that drove the Dow down 11 percent from its 2010 peak a month ago. Traders cautioned that this might not be a rally but merely a break in selling. The Dow rose 284.54, or 2.9 percent, to 10,258.99. It was the biggest gain for the Dow since it soared 405 points on May 10 after the European Union announced a bailout for debt-strapped countries. The Standard & Poor’s 500 index rose 35.11, or 3.3 percent, to 1,103.06.

Geithner: US, Europe agree on reform BERLIN (AP) – The U.S. and Europe broadly agree on the need for reform of the financial system, but global cooperation is needed, Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner said Thursday. He also said countries are working together to balance cutting back deficits with supporting economic growth. Geithner met German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble during a two-day visit to Europe that also took him to Britain and to the European Central Bank in Frankfurt. The trip comes amid ongoing market volatility following European nations’ agreement this month on a €750 billion (nearly $1 trillion) loan

backstop for governments in danger of defaulting on debt – coupled with efforts to cut budget deficits. Germany, the eurozone’s biggest economy, pushed that deal through parliament last week. Geithner welcomed Berlin’s “leadership role” in putting together “this very strong framework,” as well as its speedy action to implement it. He deflected worries that austerity measures could lead to an economic setback. He underlined the need to reduce debt “to sustainable levels over the medium term” and added that “we’re going to get there at somewhat different paces.” “We are working very

closely together to try to make sure that we are strengthening and reinforcing this global recovery,” he said. Schaeuble noted that the rules governing the euro are titled the “stability and growth pact” and said countries would try to do justice to both elements. The eurozone rescue package – preceded by a rescue for Greece that remains unpopular in Germany – has been accompanied by renewed European determination to advance regulatory reform of the financial system. Many on the continent contend that speculative market practices exacerbated the debt crisis.

Pequot, Samberg pay to settle insider trading case WASHINGTON (AP) – An investment firm and its founder and chairman, Arthur Samberg, have agreed to pay a total of $28 million to settle regulators’ charges of insider trading in shares of Microsoft Corp., in a longrunning case that prompted scrutiny by Congress. The Securities and Exchange Commission announced the settlement Thursday with Pequot Capital Management Inc., whose core hedge fund was liquidated last

year, and with Samberg, a prominent figure in the financial world. They neither admitted nor denied wrongdoing in settling the SEC’s civil lawsuit filed in federal court in Connecticut. The SEC alleged that the hedge fund traded Microsoft shares on confidential information provided by a former employee of the technology giant whom it later hired. That alleged tipster, David Zilkha, was hired by Pequot in April 2001. The

SEC alleges in a new administrative proceeding against him that Zilkha concealed from the agency staff that he had gotten inside information on Microsoft’s earnings and recommended to Samberg that he buy the stock based on the advance information. Zilkha, 41, left Pequot in November 2001. His attorney, Henry Putzel III, didn’t immediately return a telephone call seeking comment Thursday.

Bill Read, director of the National Hurricane Center, speaks to the media Thursday.

US predicts up to 7 major Atlantic hurricanes MIAMI (AP) – The Atlantic hurricane season could be the busiest since 2005, when Katrina and Rita caused massive destruction along the same part of the Gulf Coast now struggling with the largest offshore oil spill in U.S. history, government scientists said Thursday. The 2010 season may spawn as many as 23 named tropical storms,

including up to seven major hurricanes, a number not likely to be affected by the spill, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration predicted. Eight to 14 storms would strengthen into hurricanes, with top winds of 74 mph or higher, the agency said. Three to seven of those could become major storms

that reach Category 3 or higher – meaning they bring sustained winds of at least 111 mph. “This season could be one of the more active on record,” NOAA administrator Jane Lubchenco said in a news release. “The greater likelihood of storms brings an increased risk of a landfall. In short, we urge everyone to be prepared.”
