Business owners say machines bring in extra revenue. 1B BY PAM HAYNES ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – You may have noticed them popping up like spring flowers in places along N. Main Street or Eastchester Drive. With computers lining the interior walls and colorful neon blue and green online games splashed across the screens, Internet sweepstakes cafes are one of the types of businesses that are opening during the recession, according to business licenses filed in High Point. But the new trend of these cafes also is the center of a controversy among politicians, with some wanting to shut down the operations and others wanting to keep the practice legal. The General Assembly voted in 2006 to phase out video poker games by July 2007. The legislation exempted the video gambling machines at the casino run by the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians. In 2009, N.C. Superior Court Judge Howard Manning Jr. ruled

Bobby Tiller (front) and Randy Washam try their luck at the Variety Flea Market, located at 1107 Tate St. that the exemption violated the federal Indian Gaming Regulatory Act, and the ban was overturned. Denise Tomaso, a business license specialist with the city, said a growing number of applications for a sweepstakes cafe business have surfaced in the last year. “They are coming in pretty often,” Tomaso said. “I don’t know of any license applications for them prior to this fiscal year.”

The applications are filed under the category of a service-oriented businesses, leaving the city with no specific count on how many have opened in the last year. But a drive through downtown High Point will show several sweepstakes cafes in shopping centers and former fast food restaurants that have recently opened. While the General Assembly tries to close the video poker loophole and

an appeal of the ruling works its way through the legal system, the businesses operate in a legal gray area. Proponents say the sweepstakes cafes are allowed to operate because the machines don’t violate the state’s other gaming laws, which deem illegal “a device where the user may become entitled to receive any money, credit, allowance, or any thing of value.” Opponents say there is no difference be-

Council drops rec fee plan BY PAT KIMBROUGH ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – In theory, it might sound like a good idea, but a multi-tiered fee structure for High Point’s parks and recreation facilities would be unworkable. That was the consensus that emerged from the City Council’s final budget review session Thursday when the topic of whether to charge non-city residents higher fees was discussed. Charging those who live outside High Point more to use city golf courses, tennis facilities, parks and other amenities would be problematic because the city doesn’t have the staff to spend the required time verifying the residency of patrons, officials said. It was also argued that such a move wouldn’t be cost-effective.

“We’ve been through this discussion with Garry Burnette and Allen Oliver, and we’ve never had either director say they wanted to go down that path,” Councilman Bill Bencini said. “I think we open up a can of worms that is probably not worth whatever additional funds that might come from this.” Another topic of discussion for council members was the Guilford County Tax Office in High Point and what the future might hold for it. City officials said that their conversations with their county counterparts have sought to make clear the council’s wishes that the office continue to have a presence in High Point and that the same services are offered here as in Greensboro. County officials have made it clear that

HIGH POINT – It’s typical to see a rush of household renovation projects every spring, according to Shannon Kauffman, owner of Handyman Matters. After all, that’s why they call it spring cleaning. But the flood of calls that Kauffman and other renovators have seen is significantly greater than the same time last year – when most of their cus-

tomers were pinching pennies due to bad economic conditions. “Since March, we’ve seen a lot of extra business. Our franchise is also saying they’ve seen extra business nationally,” said Kauffman, who opened the Triad location five years ago. “What we’ve noticed is that people are focusing on remodeling. The market for renovations seems to be improving for us.” From storm repair and small fix-it jobs to redo-

High Point’s proposed 2010-11 budget holds the property tax rate at 63.3 cents per $100 valuation but raises water, sewer and electric rates. The council did away with a proposed garbage collection fee and an increase in the fee for business licenses and opted to transfer $1 million from the city’s electric fund and take other measures to close an estimated budget deficit.

Home sales took a dive in October 2008 and have struggled to gain foothold ever since. High Point saw much activity thanks to the federal government’s homebuyer tax credit program. Now that the program is over, renovators speculate that activity may be fueled into the remodeling sector until the housing market and economy make a full recovery. The number of callers requesting price estimates has increased for both

there are no plans to close the office. But some council members questioned whether it’s worth the city paying a portion of the cost to operate the office here, especially when its only services provided are looking up tax records and receiving payments while the county is making a move to put more records online. “I don’t know what we’re getting for $324,000 just to say we Public hearings on the budget are scheduled for June 7 at have a tax office in High Point,” 5:30 p.m. and June 10 at 9 said Councilwoman Bernita Sims. a.m. Adoption of the budget is “Maybe we need to get out of it alscheduled for June 21. together.” Others pointed out that there still appears to be demand for the office. “I would say it’s primarily who probably don’t have a compeople who don’t have the means puter,” Councilman John Fairto travel to Greensboro, who may cloth said. want to have something explained to them not over the phone and pkimbrough@hpe.com | 888-3531

ing entire bathrooms and kitchens, renovators may be finding success while the housing market struggles and homeowners stay put. “People are now taking on some projects that they really don’t have to do, but just want to,” said Steve Cranford, owner of the High Point-based House Doctors franchise. “Last year at this time, it was tough (to find jobs). This year, people who recognize their investments are trying to protect it the best they can.”

businesses, but also the number of jobs. Other contributing factors include tax incentives for adding energy efficient products to homes, Cranford said. “People are making some choices on windows and doors based around those tax credits,” he said. “It makes sense in a couple of ways. First, they’re protecting their investment. But it can also save them money in energy costs.” phaynes@hpe.com | 888-3617

McCrory working to remain visible in NC politics

AP

Emergency personnel respond to the scene of a shooting that left two dead at a Super Target Sunday morning in Apex. Police say a woman was shot to death outside the store where she worked and the shooter killed himself.

Police: Man kills worker, self at Apex store APEX (AP) – Police say a 59year-old woman has been shot to death inside the store where she worked and the shooter has killed himself. Apex police Capt. Ann Stephens said Guadalupe Rosas was killed Sunday at her register at the front

of Super Target in the town just 15 miles west of Raleigh. Stephens said the shooter killed himself when confronted by officers. Stephens said the shooter’s name is being withheld until next of kin can be notified. She said Rosas and the shooter had had a romantic relation-

ship that ended about five years ago. Investigators do not know what prompted the shooting. Stephens says about 150 customers and employees were evacuated from the store and four people suffered minor injuries as they rushed to get out.

Fossil Festival

RALEIGH (AP) – Pat McCrory’s calendar seems penciled with listings for someone ready for a rematch with Gov. Beverly Perdue. McCrory, who stepped down as Charlotte mayor after 16 years last fall, has become a popular speaker statewide on the Republican Party’s chicken dinner circuit, headlining many GOP fundraisers. He’s been a frequent visitor on local and even national television political roundtables after narrowly losing to Perdue in November 2008. Now he has started a political action committee to raise money for legislative candidates and highlight issues he promoted in the 2008 race, including transportation, criminal justice and getting rid of what he called “a culture of corruption” in state government. “North Carolina state government is in a mess,” the 53-year-old McCrory said in a video announcing his New Leadership PAC and identifying Democrats, including Perdue, whom he believes are part

AURORA – Colby Whisnant’s pre-kindergarten class in New Bern began studying dinosaurs last week. The 5-year-old came home with a request. “He wanted to come to the fossil festival and find a dinosaur bone,” said his mother, Melissa. When the family arrived at Saturday’s second day of the annual Aurora Fossil Festival, the youngster ignored all the festivities such as the parade, food, and even the homemade ice cream booth. “He wanted to start digging,” his mother laughed as the two picked their way through one of several huge piles of potential fossil finds, provided by PotashCorp, owner of the town’s huge phosphate mine. While Colby was looking for his dinosaur bone, the 17th annual parade made its way through town, with local bands, veterans, a giant Uncle Sam, civic floats and a variety of Sudan Shriners mini-vehicles. Melissa Carlyle and her daugh-

ter Brittani French made their annual trek from nearby Greenville, where Melissa is a Pitt County Memorial Hospital nurse and her daughter is an ECU nursing stu-

‘He wanted to start digging.’ Melissa Whisnant Mother of 5-year-old Colby dent. The family has ties to Aurora. Dad Bob Carlyle owns a marine construction business here. The women said the festival was a time to renew old acquaintances every year, even among the vendors. “There are lots of really nice vendors, some of them from as far away as Florida and New York,” Melissa said. “It’s three days of fun, to come and just have a good time.” Along with the food, amusement rides, helicopter rides, tours of the local mine, car show and marina activities, there was plenty for the serious fossil fan. Lectures and exhibits were fea-

of the problem. “It’s time for new leadership in our state and it must start now in 2010.” What about 2012? McCrory said in an interview he’s going to strongly consider a repeat gubernatorial bid. A longtime observer of his political career is more certain. “He’s going to run for governor,” said Ted Arrington, a political science professor at University of North Carolina at Charlotte. Arrington said it’s a challenge for McCrory to keep his name in front of the general public now that he’s the exmayor. He also needs to avoid negative publicity that could harm him politically while satisfying both the business community that backed him for years and the new tea party movement to avoid a bruising GOP primary. “I think he’s still popular, but he’s just disappeared from everything,” Arrington said. “He’s behind the scenes. He’s working the party leaders.”

tured at several indoor and outdoor venues by such noted institutions as the Smithsonian, N.C. Museum of Natural Science and fossil clubs from around the state. North Carolina Fossil Club members Mary Boulton of Charlotte and Joanne Panek Dubrock of Raleigh take in many fossil festivals each year, and rate the Aurora event high on their list. “Where else can you find such as slice of small-town North Carolina where the whole town turns out for something that is such a gift, and goes a little whack-a-doodle about fossils?” Boulton asked. Dock Mitchell of Bayboro and his family come to the festival most years for the good food and a friendly place to visit. “What better place is there to meet some fine people and find some deals like this,” he laughed, holding up a pair of metal birds he bought. Each metal fowl was a combination of rebar, springs and other metal parts. He plans to put the larger bird on his deck or in a flower bed, while his wife Corinna bought the smaller bird as a desk ornament.

Find loophole FROM PAGE 1

through the General Assembly this summer. “Several years ago, video poker terminals were banned,” Johnson said. “Those who have opened up the so-called cafes have found a loophole by saying they are only charging the customer for internet time, and the actual gambling is taking place on the Internet.” Roy Cordato, vice president for research at the John Locke Foundation, said the practice should be legal, but it probably wouldn’t function well as a revenue raiser if a tax was placed on the games

like some lawmakers have suggested. And when it comes to the owners of cafes, most declined to comment about the issue to The High Point Enterprise. But Jim Jennings, owner of Variety Flea Market on Tate Street in High Point, which has several of the machines inside, said the practice should be left alone. “If there can be a lottery or casinos, I think they (the game parlors) should be able to be open anywhere,” he said. phaynes@hpe.com | 888-3617

Best-selling author, Derby generate excitement I She told me that, after writing 12 books, she wanted a new idea and her newest series of ABOUT books will TOWN be called, Mary “The WedBogest ding Cake Mysteries.â€? So she is changing her “recipeâ€? from newsroom and crime to cakes and crime. Clark got her new idea when she was watching Martha Stewart on the Morning Show and showed a book of wedding cakes – voila! The idea came to Clark (whose ex-mother-in-law is famed novelist Mary Higgins Clark) to feature a bakery that specializes in wedding cakes. The main character is an aspiring young actress whose mother owns a bakery. The cover of each book will feature a themed wedding cake. Now you have some insider information since none of this has been publicized. Her “researchâ€? included taking the Wilton Cake Decorating Course! I like that kind of research! The Literary League Luncheon is another one of those highly anticipated events and the ballroom at the High Point Country Club was teeming with the League’s enthusiastic readers, many of whom are also members of book clubs. They were not disappointed. As the luncheon ended, outgoing President Judy Hustrulid handed over the gavel to incoming President Emilie Rogers! Talk began to swirl about the next Literary League Luncheon in October, which will feature scholar, performer and non-fiction writer Dr. Elliot Engel, who has written three plays and seven books including “A Dab of Dickens & A Touch of Twain.â€?

The fall program also will include the annual awarding of the scholarship to a High Point University student. This was the second year that the Junior League of High Point has celebrated the running of the horses with the Kentucky Derby Party held at the Briles House. Once again, I cannot tell you how wonderful it is that this home has been preserved and is used for such wonderful events. While it was raining in Kentucky, High Point’s temperatures rose, making those mint juleps taste better than ever. In addition to the mint juleps, typical Derby fare was served, which included country ham biscuits, vegetables and crudites, pimento cheese sandwiches, chicken salad sandwiches, deviled eggs and bourbon balls. Julie Andrews and Junior League President Ericka Best-Hunt served as co-chairmen of the party,

which also had a silent auction that was coordinated by the Leagues 2009-10 Provisional Class who soon will become active members of the League. As a member of the community advisory board, I remain awed at everything this Junior League is doing in our community. In addition to preserving the Briles Home, they host the Kids Kitchen and recently opened the Children’s Learning Center at the Little Red Schoolhouse. Their Done-in-aDay led by dynamo Deena Qubein adopts and implements community projects each month. The list could go on and on. As much as the Kentucky Derby is known for the horses, it is also famous for the hats!

’ll admit it. I am stumped. How can I combine the Junior League’s Kentucky Derby Party with the literary League’s Luncheon featuring the New York Times best selling author Mary Jane Clark into one column? Perhaps I should just ask myself why not? They were both fun events. They both were in High Point. They both involve our community. So that’s it. I’ll just do it! The sequence which I’ll tell you about these are not by importance. It is fairly in chronological order. As I have mentioned before whenever I am going to meet a best-selling author, I feel a certain intimidation. They are best-selling authors, then there is me. You know what I mean. What continually amazes me, though, is, time after time, my fears and anxieties are met by authors who are generously open and nice. This is exactly what happened when I met Mary Jane Clark. Even though she is a Nor’easterner, she was “down home� with Southern charm. We chatted before the luncheon and she told me that she had looked forward to coming to High Point since her friend and fellow New York Times best-selling author Dottie Benton Frank told her about the High Point Literary League and how welcoming and fun it was to come here. Clark’s books are fun to read (I love murder mysteries) and mix her insider knowledge of the television news business (30 years with CBS News) and crime. Crime has always been a large part of her life – her parents met when they were both with the FBI. Now her MO (I had to use the crime jargon meaning modus operandi or in plain English meaning method of operating) is about to change.

Local West Point grad makes lasting impression Last weekend, I had the good fortune to attend the graduation ceremonies for West Point’s class of 2010, in which was Kaitlin Ellison, my good friend’s daughter who is now an Army second lieutenant. After spending the day amongst Kaitlin and her bright, energetic classmates and seeing the graduating cadets hurl their uniform hats into the air as part of an age-old tradition at West Point, I was on an emotional high. For those not familiar with the hat-tossing ceremony at West Point, it is tradition for young children to queue up and then storm the field upon which the ceremony is held to collect a cadet’s hat for a keepsake; I fondly remember doing the same thing years ago when my father taught at West Point. After the hat toss,

Kaitlin’s young cousin proudly collected a hat then brought it back to our seats in Michie Stadium where we found a handwritten note tucked into the hat. The note read, “My name is Lewis Han. I’m from High Point, N.C., and I am part of the class of 2010. I branched field artillery and I am heading to Ft. Lewis, WA., as my new home. I hope you will take care of this hat that I have worn for the last four years. Every time you see it, you should be reminded that you can accomplish anything you set your mind to. Always listen to your parents and those around you that love you. They will guide you in the right direction and will never

leave your side. Remember, you can do anything that you truly set your mind and heart to. Best of Luck, Lewis Han.” In a day and age when we see politicians and executives lying and lacking the most basic leadership skills, it is easy for one to spiral into negativity and feel that our country is headed in the wrong direction. But then a beacon of light like 2nd Lt. Han’s note appears and helps us realize our country is in safe hands with men and women like him in our armed forces. I can’t help but imagine Cadet Lt. Han sitting down to write the note on the eve of the most exciting day in his young life,

and what does he do? Does he complain that he will likely serve in a combat zone in the next 12 months? No, instead he did what all great leaders do: He didn’t make the moment about himself, but instead chose to think of someone else. He took the time to craft a motivational message that will hopefully shape a youngster’s life in some small manner. One can only hope that the politicians who are sending him into harm’s way will also learn something from Lt. Han’s words, and more importantly, his selfless actions. MIKE CAVANAUGH Doylestown, Pa. EDITOR’S NOTE: Lewis Han graduated from Southwest Guilford High School in 2006. The Enterprise waived its 300-word limit for this letter.

But today, let us put aside our political arguments about war, or any political issue, and let us pause to remember and honor all of the Americans who made the supreme sacrifice for our freedom – warriors who, as Abraham Lincoln said in his Gettysburg Address, gave the last full measure of devotion. From the Revolutionary War through the Civil War, World War I, World War II, Korea, Vietnam and now Iraq and Afghanistan, American men and women have responded to the call for volunteers or the local draft board’s orders to risk their lives for the freedom of their country. More than 1.4 million Americans have died while serving during America’s wars. According to the Wikipedia Web site, here are estimates of U.S. military deaths, including combat and other causes: American Revolution (1775-1783) – est. 25,000; War of 1812 (1812-1815) – est. 20,000; Mexican War (1846-1848) – 13,283; Civil War (1861-1865) – 364,511 Union and est. 260,000 Confederate; Spanish-American War (April-August 1898) – 2,446; Philipine-American War (1898-1913) – 4,196 World War I (1914-1918) – 116,516; World War II (1939-1945) – 405,399; Korean War (1950-1953) – 33,686; Vietnam War (1954-1975) – 58,209; Persian Gulf War (August 1990 - April 1991) 382; Afghanistan (October 2001 – ongoing) – 1,278+ as of May 28; Iraq War (March 2003-ongoing) – 4,404+ as of May 28; And another nearly 5,000 died in the Indian wars and other military actions throughout our nation’s history. The origin of the Memorial Day observance goes back to 1868 just after the U.S. Civil War, but perhaps the best words to explain the true meaning of this national holiday were spoken on a cool afternoon five years earlier on Nov. 19, 1863, in Gettysburg, Pa., by President Abraham Lincoln. He spoke during dedication ceremonies for a military cemetery on ground where the Battle of Gettysburg had raged just over four months earlier: “Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. “Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a part of that field as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. “But in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate; we cannot consecrate; we cannot hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here have consecrated it far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us, the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us – that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion; that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain; that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.”

That free-market religion gets lost in Gulf oil spill “There has never been a challenge that the American people, with as little interference as possible by the federal government, cannot handle.” – Bobby Jindal, March 24, 2009

T

hat was then. This is now: 11 people dead in an oil rig explosion, fragile marshlands damaged, perhaps irreparably, uncalculated millions (billions?) in lost revenue for the tourism and fishing industries, and a short attention span nation transfixed by a compelling image from a deep sea camera, brown gunk billowing out from a hole in the ocean floor, Things Getting Worse in real time. And Bobby Jindal, governor of Louisiana, off whose coast this tragedy is centered, is singing a new song, starkly at odds with what he said last year in a speech before the Republican faithful. Now he’s begging for federal “interference.” He wants federal money, federal supplies, wants the feds to help create barrier islands to protect Louisiana wetlands from oil. Not to pick on Jindal. He is but one prominent voice in a chorus of Gulf state officials who once preached the virtues of tiny government but have discovered, in the wake of this spreading disaster, the virtues of government that is robust enough, at a minimum, to help them out of a jam. One hears pointed questions about President Obama’s engagement or lack thereof in the unfolding crisis. One hears accusations that the government was lax in its oversight duties and too cozy with the oil industry it was supposed to be regulating. One hears nothing about deregulation, about leaving the free market alone to do its magic. You know what they say: it’s all fun and games till somebody gets hurt. Well, the Gulf Coast is hurt, hurt in ways that may take years to fully assess, much less repair. And the sudden silence from the apostles of small government and free markets is telling. The thing is, their argument is not fundamentally wrong. Who among us does not believe government is frequently bloated, inefficient and bound by preposterous rules? Who among us does not think it is often wasteful, hideously

complex and redundantly redundant? Yes, government is not perfect. Nor is it perfectable. As adults, we should understand that. Any bureaucracy serving 309 million people and repreOPINION senting their interests in a world of 6.8 billion, is likely Leonard always to have flaws. Thus, Pitts fixing government, making ■■■ it more streamlined and responsive, is and will always be an ongoing project. But instead of undertaking that project, people like Jindal rail against the concept of government itself, selling the delusional notion that taxation and regulation represent the evisceration of some essential American principle. They wax eloquent about what great things the free market and the free American could do if government would just get off their backs. One thinks of one’s meat oozing with salmonella, one’s paint filled with lead, one’s car getting 12 miles to the gallon, one’s self being breezily denied a job for reasons of race, creed, gender or sexual orientation and, yes, one’s ocean covered from horizon to horizon with a sheen of oil. And one shudders. You see, government is not our enemy. Government is the imperfect embodiment of our common will. That is a not-so-fine distinction Jindal and others like him have lost in the rush to stoke the sense of grievance that burns in some conservative souls. It is a distinction they recalled with great clarity as oil began spilling upon their waters. As there are no atheists in foxholes, it turns out there are no small-government disciples in massive oil spills. No, with BP oil soaking the sands of his coastline, Bobby Jindal turned righteously to that big, sometimes bloated, often intrusive federal government, and asked for help. He said, Send money, send resources. You will notice he never once said, Send less. LEONARD PITTS JR., winner of the 2004 Pulitzer Prize for commentary, is a columnist for the Miami Herald.

Tropical Storm Agatha kills 16 in Central America

AP

GUATEMALA CITY (AP) – Torrential rains brought by the first tropical storm of the 2010 season pounded Central America and southern Mexico, triggering deadly landslides. The death toll stood at 16 Sunday, but authorities said the number could rise. Tropical Storm Agatha was dissipating over the mountains of western Guatemala, a day after it made landfall near the nation’s border with Mexico

with winds up to 45 mph. Although no longer even a tropical depression, Agatha still posed trouble for the region: Remnants of the storm were expected to deliver 10 to 20 inches (25 to 50 centimeters) of rain over southeastern Mexico, Guatemala and parts of El Salvador, creating the possibility of “lifethreatening flash floods and mudslides,� the U.S. National Hurricane Center in Miami said in an advisory.

NATO general in Afghanistan: Taliban train in Iran KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) – The commander of NATO and U.S. forces in Afghanistan said Sunday there is “clear evidence� that some Taliban fighters have trained in Iran. Gen. Stanley McChrystal told reporters in the Afghan capital that Iran – Afghanistan’s western neighbor – has generally assisted the Afghan government in fighting the insurgent group. “There is, however, clear evidence of Iranian activity – in some cases providing weaponry and training to the Taliban – that is inappropriate,� he said. McChrystal said NATO forces are working to stop both the training and

the weapons trafficking. Last month, McChrystal said there were indications that Taliban were training in Iran, but not very many and not in a

The U.S. command confirmed that an American service member was killed Sunday in a small arms attack in southern Afghanistan. May is already the deadliest month this year for U.S. troops with 33 deaths – two more than in February when American, NATO and Afghan forces seized the Taliban stronghold of Marjah in Helmand province. The month also brought the 1,000th U.S. military death in the Afghan war since it began in 2001 when Marine Cpl. Jacob Leicht was killed Thursday by a roadside bomb in Helmand. The AP’s figures are based on Defense Depart-

ment reports of deaths as a direct result of the Afghan conflict, including personnel assigned to units in Afghanistan, Pakistan or Uzbekistan. Non-U.S. deaths are based on statements by governments that have contributed forces to the coalition. The Taliban have spread out beyond their heartland in the south in recent years to increasingly launch attacks countrywide.

Bodies found in abandoned silver mine MEXICO CITY – Mexico’s federal police commissioner says between 20 and 25 corpses have been recovered from an abandoned silver mine, apparently victims of drug gang violence. Facundo Rosas says the bodies were pulled from the mine late Saturday and throughout the day Sunday after a suspect told authorities about the abandoned mine, one of hundreds in the region surrounding Taxco, a colonial-era city popular with international tourists.

TRIPOLI, Libya – A commission investigating a plane crash earlier this month in the Libyan capital that killed 103 people have found no evidence of terrorism or mechanical failure, the state news agency said Sunday.

A nine-year-old Dutch boy was the sole survivor.

SEOGWIPO, South Korea – China held back from joining the chorus of nations condemning North Korea over the sinking of a South Korean warship, making quick international sanctions unlikely but perhaps buying time while China quietly leans on its unpredictable, nuclear-armed neighbor.

Bush family celebrates wedding of Jeb’s son MIAMI – Generations of a Republican dynasty are in Miami to celebrate the wedding of former Gov. Jeb Bush’s youngest son. Presidents George Herbert Walker Bush and George W. Bush and their wives were among the guests at St. Jude Melkite Catholic Church as 26-year-old John Ellis Bush Jr. married Sandra Algudady on Saturday afternoon. The elder Bush appeared frail as he walked into the church with a cane wearing a white suit. His granddaughters, Jenna and Barbara, were also in attendance.

CHICAGO (AP) – Good friends, good food and the comforts of his own home. President Barack Obama enjoyed all three when he brought his family home to Chicago for a long Memorial Day holiday weekend.

NEW YORK – A 21year-old musician has survived a fall from a New York City balcony in which his head became impaled on a spiked metal fence. Police say Nicholas Blossom was intoxicated at a party in Manhattan’s Chelsea neighborhood when he fell from a thirdfloor balcony at around 4 a.m. Saturday. They say he landed headfirst on the fence of the second-floor balcony of an adjoining building. Rescuers used an electric saw to detach Blossom from the fence. He was taken to Bellevue Hospital, where he was in stable condition. ENTERPRISE NEWS SERVICE REPORTS

Mullen wishes Congress had waited on gay ban vote WASHINGTON (AP) – The chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff said Sunday he would have preferred that Congress had waited before voting to repeal the “don’t ask, don’t tell� law that bans gays from serving openly in the military. Adm. Mike Mullen did not directly criticize a House vote on Friday that marked a step toward repealing the ban. But he said it would have been better for lawmakers to wait until the

Pentagon completed its review of how to make the repeal work. That study is due out in December.

Gaming machines benefit some, steer others away BY PAM HAYNES ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – Some business owners in High Point have added parlor games or internet gambling machines to their stores in hopes of generating extra revenue. Jim Jennings, owner of the Variety Flea Market at 1107 Tate St. in High Point, said he added several machines about three months ago in hopes of boosting sales. “We were hoping to use them to generate revenue or help out with the rent here,” Jennings

‘(A sweepstakes cafe) played a major factor in why we moved. ... Since it moved in, I saw a decrease in my business.’

said. “Personally, they (the machines) aren’t my thing, but we did it to make extra money.” Jennings said the computers hadn’t paid off for him yet, and they require 50 percent of any revenue or charges accrued for internet time to use the machines, to be given to the company that furbishes the machines. Still, some of his customers come in to play the games because they Carlos Brown sometimes get lucky, he Owner, Gulah Gulah Cuisine said. “I had a lady that came “She sat down with $5 in here and had some and left with $180 five time to kill,” he said. minutes later.”

While they may draw some people into shopping centers or stores, Carlos Brown, owner of Gullah Gullah Cuisine, said an Internet sweepstakes cafe actually played a major factor in the relocation of his restaurant. Formerly located at 2801 N. Main St., the restaurant relocated in December to 3793 Samet Drive after a sweepstakes cafe opened next to it. “It played a major factor in why we moved,” Brown said. “Sometimes (the cafes) bring a cer-

tain clientele to their stores that people who come into a restaurant don’t want to be involved with. Since it moved in, I saw a decrease in my business.” But Jennings said he’s had no problems with the clientele it draws to his store, which are usually older people with free time. He said the store’s decision to include the games has led to a “unique situation” that he hopes will continue to bring in more people. phaynes@hpe.com | 888-3617

Just a little more than a month after acquiring a South Carolina-based bank, the Bank of North Carolina has announced plans to build a new branch in Raleigh and expand an existing one in Winston-Salem.

Bank of N.C. expands into Raleigh BY PAUL B. JOHNSON ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

THOMASVILLE – Bank of North Carolina is continuing its recent growth by expanding for the first time into the Research Triangle and increasing the size of the bank’s branch in Winston-Salem. BNC Bancorp, the parent company of the bank, announced that Bank of North Carolina will open its first branch in Raleigh. The full-service branch should be in place by late summer at 4525 Falls of Neuse Road, the bank reports.

Mark Carlton has joined BNC Bancorp as Raleigh market executive. Assisting him will be longtime bankers Jim Graham and Doug Ford, BNC Bancorp announced. The company also will increase its scope in Winston-Salem by relocating its branch to a larger location at 1803 Peace Haven Road across from the Sherwood Plaza Shopping Center. The Winston-Salem relocation from Westbrook Plaza Office Park also should take place by late summer, BNC Bancorp reports. The Raleigh and Winston-Sa-

lem offices both report to Reid Marks, who joined BNC Bancorp in 2009. Marks serves as regional executive for the northern region, which includes the Piedmont Triad and now the Triangle. “Our new management team will position us for success in the Raleigh area, which has continued to be a strong market even during a challenging economy,” said BNC Bancorp President and Chief Executive Officer W. Swope Montgomery Jr. The announcements about the growth in the Triad and Research

Triangle come a little more than a month after the bank’s largest single expansion in its 19-year history. In early April, BNC Bancorp cooperated with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. to acquire the assets of Beach First National Bank of Myrtle Beach, S.C., which went into receivership through federal regulators. The Beach First acquisition pushed BNC Bancorp’s total assets from about $1.6 billion to $2.2 billion. pjohnson@hpe.com | 888-3528

GTCC program fits busy schedules ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

JAMESTOWN – Linnea Matson, a Randleman High School graduate, had a rare opportunity to work in Finland for a year but didn’t want to get behind in her college studies. Her solution was to continue studies online at Guilford Technical Community College. Many students who work at regular jobs have a com-

mon problem – how to get the college degree they desire. Their work schedules don’t allow them to be traditional students. Many students also have family commitments that keep them out of the classroom. Matson praised the GTCC program via e-mail from her intern and volunteer position at an English immersion school in Finland.

“This is a job I would love to continue after I graduate,” said Matson, who is pursuing a degree in elementary education. Online learning continues to grow, said Deana St. Peter at GTCC. “From 2007 until 2009, we had one program online – an associates of arts degree in General Studies. We started in the fall of 2007 with 18 students, and had our first two gradu-

ates in December,” St. Peter said. GTCC now has 10 online eDegree programs, and will add four more programs this fall, St. Peter said. GTCC also has seen a growth in the number of students from outside the Triad. Irene Varney of Greensboro, a college dropout and mother of two small children, wanted to get the degree she missed. She

will finish her associate of arts degree this semester at age 27. “While we have a few younger students, ages 1820, most of our students are adults who have been out of school for a few years,” St. Peter said. “Our programs allow our students the flexibility to attend college on their schedules. Without eDegree programs, many of these students could not attend.”

Orange County considers sales tax increase MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

HILLSBOROUGH – The Orange County commissioners are considering a possible quarter-cent sales tax to help fund schools and county projects. County sales tax revenues have dropped by 30 percent since fiscal year 2008. Over that time, property taxes have gone from providing about two-thirds of the county’s revenues to three-quarters. “Unless something changes, next fiscal year we’ll be looking at a property tax increase,� said County Manager Frank Clifton. The current sales tax rate in Orange County is 7.75 percent – 5.75 percent for the state and 2 percent for the county. The proposed quartercent tax would increase the local sales tax rate to 8 percent. Unlike a prop-

On Saturday, the wine goddess – wearing a necklace of wine-bottle corks – was working under a tent giving tastes of

A day after family members made an emotional plea for the community to help police solve a young father’s killing at a popular latenight restaurant, police

Ferry tolls FUNERAL FUNERAL likely HAIZLIPHOME 206 FOURTH ST. to change HIGH POINT MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

Tolls paid by ferry riders cover less than 6 percent of operating costs for the State Ferry Division, and House budget writers want that figure to rise to 100 percent. A House subcommittee has endorsed a Senate proposal to increase the Ferry Division’s operating budget by $11.3 million, to $43.5 million. Along with its budget recommendations, the subcommittee proposed a measure that would have the DOT develop a fee schedule for ferry routes that would cover operating costs. If approved by the General Assembly, the measure would not change toll rates in the coming year. Riders now pay tolls only on ferries from Ocracoke to Cedar Island and to Swan Quarter and between Fort Fisher and Southport.

erty-tax hike, it would increase the amount of taxes collected directly from tourists and other visitors who buy goods and services in Orange County but don’t live here. During the 2007 legislative session, the N.C. General Assembly granted counties the authority to levy, subject to voter approval, an additional quarter-cent county sales-and-use tax. If the commissioners decide to go forward, voters would have to approve the tax by referendum on Nov. 2. The quarter-cent county sales-and-use tax would generate approximately $2.3 million for Orange County on an annual basis. If the voters approved the referendum this fall, implementation would not start until April 1, 2011, generating approximately $575,000 for the remainder of FY 2010-11.

3 NC men arrested after NJ chase HACKENSACK, N.J. (AP) – Three North Carolina men face numerous charges following a police chase through several northern New Jersey towns that injured two officers. Bergen County Police Capt. Brian Higgins said the pursuit began around 7:30 p.m. Saturday when officer Robert Duboue – who was westbound on Interstate 80 in Teaneck – noticed the suspects’ vehicle had a broken tail light. Duboue then saw the car abruptly cut across several lanes and enter Interstate 95 Southbound. He followed and turned on his overhead lights,

but the driver – 39-year-old William Keane of Raleigh – refused to stop. The pursuit then passed through several towns, during which witnesses saw some plastic bags – later found to contain drugs – thrown from the suspect’s vehicle. The chase eventually ended at Interstate 80 Westbound in Hackensack, when the suspects tried to leave the highway but crashed into a guardrail. Duboue and Teaneck Sgt. Douglas Alcott, who had joined the chase, arrested the two passengers at the scene, but Keane fled on foot. Another county police officer,

David Vargas, ran after Keane and arrested him a short time later following a brief altercation. Vargas sustained a broken right hand and soft tissue damage to his right arm and elbow. Duboue sustained a hand laceration while making the arrests. Keane was charged with eluding, resisting arrest, numerous motor vehicle violations and two counts of aggravated assault on a police officer. The two other men in the car – Nelson Tavares, 40, of Ayden, and Thaddeus Bizzell, 33, of Raleigh – both face numerous drug charges.

driver Sylvester Pernell lost control of the 2004 Saturn Vue. The SUV ran off the road into a wooded median, hit two pine trees and flipped over. In addition to the driver, three passengers died. They were 28-year-old Jamal Pernell, 21-yearold Kimberley Pernell and 55-year-old Georgia Pernell. All of them were from Dillon, S.C., near the North Carolina-South Carolina state line.

Combat medic’s hard choice wins praise, veneration

D

ear Abby: I had to write regarding “Doc in Distress� (March 26), who allowed a critically wounded comrade to push him away so he could save others. I spent eight years as a combat medic in the Army. As hard as it is to hear, that person acted precisely as he was trained. Training in mass casualty situations – triage – dictates that immediate care be given to those who are most likely to survive. Those who are identified as “expectant� are to be treated last. The purpose is to successfully treat the greatest number of people. Putting his energy into trying to save someone who would possibly die anyway could have resulted in even more fatalities. Unfortunately, nothing anyone can say or do will reduce the guilt he feels. “Playing God� is never easy, and many medics have wondered if they would be able to do it. – Kimberly in Southern California Dear Kimberly: Thank you for writing. I have been flooded with mail from medics from all branches of the military, from World War II, Korea, Vietnam and the current combat zones, offering support for Doc. I wish I could print them all. Read on for a sample: Dear Abby: I know his pain. I served in Iraq as a combat medic and watched friends die as I tried to help everyone I could. I still have nightmares and flashbacks. However, with treatment they are now under control. I want Doc to under-

stand that what he did was right. The soldier knew he was going to die no matter ADVICE what was done. He Dear gave his life Abby for his team ■■■and his country. Doc needs to understand that this soldier’s family is grieving and took it out on the person who just happened to be there. I urge Doc to go to a mental health officer on base or to his local vet center for help. He can also call Military OneSource at (800) 342-9647. There are mental health people standing by 24/7 to help. – A Brother Medic in Iowa Dear Abby: The family of that wounded soldier needs to know that his last act of courage probably saved more than one life that day by allowing Doc to move on and treat others who could be saved. They should salute their family member and the actions of the medic. Historically, military medics go into major battles, generally unarmed, with one purpose: to save the lives of wounded soldiers. They have one of the highest per capita casualty rates in the armed forces. It takes a special person to go into a live battle like that. – Navy Veteran in New Jersey Dear Abby: I am an active duty member, and I would like to offer Doc my support and that of those I work with for his courage in performing his duty in a terrible

situation. If I were to be lost in combat, I would want someone like him to be near. His caring for the family of that member is to be commended. They may not understand now, but in time they will come to realize that he did all he could for their son and appreciate that he brought the letter home. Bravo Zulu, Doc! – Tricia in Gulfport, Miss. Dear Abby: I am a stay-at-home mom from California with two beautiful children and no immediate family serving in the military. Except for watching the war on the evening news, my life is far removed from war. Not a day goes by that I don’t say a prayer of thanks to our men and women who serve in the military. Surviving war is hard enough without the added burden of guilt. I hope that one day Doc can find peace with his decision and know that America is proud of his service. I want to take this opportunity to thank Doc and all of our armed forces. Without them, I would not be able to live a safe, comfortable life away from the horrors of war. – A Very Grateful American Dear Readers: On this Memorial Day, let us bless the spirits of those servicemen and women who have sacrificed their lives that we might live in freedom. – Love, Abby DEAR ABBY is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

M

ay 11, 1984, was a slow night at the Haunted Castle in the Great Adventure amusement park in Jackson, N.J. In fact traffic was so slow through the Haunted Castle that only one side of the castle was open. There was no reason for park patrons or employees dressed as monsters and ghouls to believe disaster was about to strike. The FIREHOUSE castle CHAT was built from 17 Lee overKnight the-road â– â– â– trailers, each of which were 40 feet long, 8 feet wide and just under 13 feet high. The complex of trailers was hidden behind a façade of skulls and ghoulish mannequins supported by wooden beams. Sixteen trailers formed two mazes, with one trailer serving as an entrance to both. Funseekers worked their way through the maze while employees dressed as monsters and ghouls jumped out to scare frightened patrons. Twenty-year-old Joan Minter started choking while moving through the maze with four friends, but she thought it was part of the act. When the choking became worse and her eyes started to burn, she realized something was wrong. Panic set in as they started running in the dark, slamming into walls and into other people. Somehow Joan found an exit and escaped with her life and watched the castle go up in flames. Patricia Lynch also narrowly escaped. While walking through the maze they turned a corner and saw flames. People panicked and started running. In the narrow corridors, people were pushed against the walls by others trying to escape. The fire burned for more than an hour, with flames leaping 100 feet into the air and black smoke billowing into the night sky. Fifteen fire companies from Jackson Township and surrounding areas and 20 rescue squads responded. Unfortunately eight teenagers, including seven males and one female, died in this horrific fire. The metal trailers were turned into ovens by the fire, making positive identification of the victims difficult. Could this tragedy have been averted? We will never know for sure, but I believe that a sprinkler system and smoke detectors would have allowed for a much different outcome. 24/7/365: You call; we respond.

Testosterone replacement

D

ear Dr. Donohue: I have been getting bimonthly testosterone injections for close to a year. I’ve noticed that my testicles are shrinking. Is this normal with testosterone replacement? What are the complications of this? Is there a drug that increases the natural production of testosterone? The reason for my injections was a low testosterone level. After three months of injections, my level was even lower. – P.P.

BLONDIE

As a man grows older, his testosterone production decreases. Not all men suffer any great consequences from this. Those who do experience such things as a lowered sexual drive, a loss of energy, a reduction of muscle size, a decrease in red blood cell production and a loss of calcium from bones. Replacement therapy makes sense for men who have some of these consequences along with a low blood testosterone level. Testosterone replacement leads to a reduction in testicle function. Testicle size decreases, but only after many years of treatment. The consequence of shrinkage isn’t a threat to health. It indicates that production of natural hormone is being taken over by the injected hormone. Supplemental testosterone might encourage growth of the prostate gland; the symptoms of this is difficulty in emptying the bladder. There’s a theoretical possibility that it could encourage the growth of prostate cancer. It often

leads to breast enlargement. On the good side, it preserves muscle tissue and HEALTH prevents osteoporosis. Dr. Paul How long Donohue after you ■■■ started therapy was your testosterone level measured? If it was near the time of your next injection, I can understand why it was low. If the test was done within a week of getting an injection, I cannot explain its drop. Your doctor has to come up with an answer for that. Dear Dr. Donohue: I had a recent heart scan, and the report refers to myocardial bridging. I would appreciate your explanation of that term. I am 82 and take no medicines. – A.P. The main heart arteries – coronary arteries – run along the outside of the heart. Branches from those main arteries dip into the heart muscle to nourish it. Myocardial bridging indicates that one of the main heart arteries has burrowed into the muscle for a short distance. Usually this is a harmless condition that produces no symptoms. For a few people, it impairs blood flow through that segment of artery, and that, in turn, brings on chest pain. You have had myocardial bridging for 82 years, from the day of your birth. It hasn’t caused you

an iota of trouble. It won’t. Dear Dr. Donohue: My husband has to be fed via a PEG tube. He had been choking on food. The doctor explained that food gets into and sinks to the bottom of his lungs and causes pneumonia. He has a small diverticulum in his neck that cannot be corrected because of his age – 87. Is there an upside to all this? – D.S. PEG is percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy. The tube is introduced into the stomach by way of a scope (endoscopic) that has been passed into the stomach through the mouth. The doctor uncoils the tube, pushes it through the stomach (gastrostomy) and through the skin. When a person is clothed or wearing pajamas, the tube cannot be seen. The procedure takes only about 20 minutes and is not painful. This is a wonderful advance for feeding people with swallowing problems. When your husband swallows, food and liquid get into his windpipe (trachea) and find their way into his lungs. Food in the lungs is an irritant that brings on pneumonia, lung inflammation. Germs that live in the mouth add to the lung inflammation. A PEG tube prevents this from happening. It’s a huge upside. As your husband gains strength, his swallowing difficulties might disappear. If they don’t, the tube can be left in place for a fairly long time. It beats having to have a tube passed into the stomach through the nose.

Robin Leftwich will teach a class in West African drum music on Wednesdays, beginning this week, at the YWCA.

The drums of Bountourabi Robin Leftwich finds West African drum music to be good for the soul BY JIMMY TOMLIN ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

H

IGH POINT – For more than a quarter-century, Robin Leftwich has been learning the secrets of drumming, but she’s not much for keeping a secret. “My belief is that this isn’t a secret to be kept, but a tradition to be shared,” she says. Leftwich, of High Point, shares the tradition not only by performing, but also by teaching drum classes, such as the series of four classes that will begin this week at the YWCA of High Point. Those classes will focus on West African drumming, which has become Leftwich’s specialty during the past 10 years or so. Specifically, Leftwich will be teaching the art of the West African hand drum, which is called a djembe (pronounced “JIM-bay”). Students will learn traditional West African rhythms and basic drumming techniques, as well as the cultural and historical background of the music. “I’ve traveled to Guinea, West Africa, several times to study the culture and the music and the history, and I’ve brought it back with me to use in my teaching,” Leftwich says. “I try to be as accurate as possible – not just about the music, but also about the culture and the history and the people, and the importance of the music to the people.” Leftwich is a personal student of Fode Moussa Camara – an internationally renowned

A West African drum class, taught by Robin “Bountourabi” Leftwich, will be offered Wednesdays, June 2-23, from 7:30 to 8:30 p.m., at the YWCA of High Point, 112 Gatewood Ave. The cost is $50 for all four sessions or $15 per drop-in class.

She even has an indigenous name when she travels to Guinea – Bountourabi, which means “angel” in Sousou, the language spoken in Guinea. “They don’t even call me Robin there – they just call me Bountourabi,” she says. In addition to playing and teaching, Leftwich has also established herself as an accomplished drum-builder, something else she learned during her trips to Guinea. According to Leftwich, drumming offers a number of documented health benefits, the most notable being the reduction of stress, which leads to better health in general. Studies have even indicated that group drumming significantly increases the disease-fighting activity of circulating white blood cells that destroy cancer cells. Playing the djembe also helps

Group drumming also tends to develop a sense of community, she says. “This drumming doesn’t exist as performer and audience – this music is for a community that exists together,” Leftwich explains. “Whenever it’s being taught or played, you blur the lines between audience and performer and find that you can create a community.” All skill levels are welcome for

FINESSE South makes 3NT if he asks himself this question: What if the club finesse loses and East leads a spade? South gets an answer if he first cashes the queen, ace and king of diamonds. When diamonds break 3-3, South is safe even when the club finesse loses. If diamonds broke 4-2, South would know he needed the spade finesse.

BRIDGE

One thing I’ve learned in 40 years of bridge: Nobody has a golden key to success. Anyway, sometimes it’s better to know some of the questions than most of the answers. At 3NT South won the third heart (West appeared to have held five), and dummy threw a spade. South next tried the club finesse. If it won, he would be sure of nine tricks. East took the king and led a spade, and South wondered whether to finesse with the queen for his ninth trick or take the ace and rely on a 3-3 diamond break. If South put up the ace, he could succeed by leading toward the queen later if East held K 9 8 5 4, K 9 4, 10 6, K 5 4, but finally South finessed. Down two.

HOROSCOPE

DAILY QUESTION You hold: S A Q 2 H A 10 3 D A K 4 C Q 10 8 6. The dealer, at your right, opens three hearts. You double, and your partner bids three spades. What do you say? ANSWER: Your opponent’s preempt has been a nuisance. It has cut away your bidding space and forces you to guess. You may not make it, but bid 3NT. To avoid missing an easy game, you must assume your partner has a few values. If he has a shapely hand, he can insist on a suit contract. 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.

‘Shrek’ remains atop box office with $43.3M LOS ANGELES (AP) – DreamWorks Animation’s sequel “Shrek Forever After” remained the No. 1 movie for a second weekend with $43.3 million from Friday to Sunday. The film raised its domestic total to $133.1 million. That easily topped the Warner Bros. sequel “Sex and the City 2,” which was No. 2 with a $32.1 million debut that came in far below the $56.8 mil-

lion opening weekend of its predecessor two years ago. Along with a $14.2 million haul in its first day Thursday, “Sex and the City 2” has brought in $46.3 million. Debuting at No. 3 with $30.2 million was Disney’s action tale “Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time.” Even with bad reviews and a running time of nearly two and a half hours for “Sex and the

City 2,” many in Hollywood had expected the sequel to open at No. 1. But the fourth “Shrek” installment, itself opening far below the previous sequels, held up strongly in its second weekend. Family crowds continued to pack theaters for what is billed as the final bigscreen tale featuring voice stars Mike Myers, Cameron Diaz, Eddie Murphy and Antonio Banderas.

Kurt Busch takes 600 BY GREER SMITH ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER

CONCORD – Kurt Busch completed a double-double and prevented rival car owner Chip Ganassi from enjoying one Sunday night. Busch used his advantage on fresh tires to stay in front of Jamie McMurray over the last 18 laps to win the Coca-Cola 600 and become the seventh driver to win the All-Star race and the 600 in the same year. It was a dramatic reversal of fortune for Busch, who led 252 of the

400 laps and had an average finish of 20.9 in points races at CMS before hit triumph. McMurray had the upper hand before Marcos Ambrose wrecked on lap 376. Busch lined up fourth and McMurray sixth for the restart on lap 382, and were in the top two positions by the end of that lap. By keeping McMurray out of victory lane, Busch denied McMurray’s car owner Ganassi from becoming the first to sweep the Indianapolis 500 and the 600 in the same day. “It was unbelievable to have

a car to stick that good,” Busch said. McMurray was unable to get within a second until the last lap and fell .738 seconds short. “It would take me 15-20 laps to catch Kurt,” McMurray said. “I still think I had a faster car on the short runs. I knew whoever was going to get off pit road first was going to win.” Kyle Busch recovered from a collision with Brad Keselowski on pit road and finished third. Jeff Burton had heated words for Busch in reaction to Busch cut-

ting one of his tires on the final restart. “He’s aggressive and that’s cool,” Burton said. “But when that affects me, then I won’t stand for it.” Mark Martin, David Reutimann and Jeff Gordon completed the top six. Pole-sitter Ryan Newman led the first 11 laps before Kurt Busch took control. Except for pit stops, Busch kept the lead until cars got service under a caution of Marco Ambrose’s spin on lap 91.

Last-lap crash at Indianapolis Mike Conway of England crashes in the third turn of the final lap of the Indianapolis 500 on Sunday. Conway suffered a broken leg but escaped life-threatening injuries. Dario Franchitti won the race. See more from the Indy 500 on 3D.

Womble wows ‘em with sizzling 61 A

SPECIAL

HPGA Memorial champion Davis Womble (center) poses with the trophy with HPGA president Bryan Colquitt (l) and HPGA vice president Larry Hedrick on Sunday. bursting with birdies. “I hooked my second shot into the hazard on the left. After that I was pretty furious,” Womble said. “On hole 8 I hit it to about 6 inches and made a birdie. After that is when I found my swing, started hitting my wedges close, the putter heated up. I just started making everything. The bogey was probably the turning point.” Six straight birdies chased away the bad taste from that lone bogey, in fact. At that point, Womble found himself at 9-under for the day and 12under for the tournament after his opening 69. Baker, playing one group behind Womble, knew the chase was on. At the 15th hole, he missed a short par putt and kicked his putter before tap-

ping in for a bogey that dropped him to 11-under. Womble held the lead with pars at 14 and 15, then nearly drove the green on the par-4 16th and drained a 2-foot putt for birdie. Another short putt saved par at 17, and Womble very nearly chipped in on the 18th after a long drive and powerful second shot put him just off the green. The near-eagle hit the pin and skirted the hole before leaving him another 2footer that he tapped in for his 12th birdie of the day. “I just made a lot of my putts today,” Womble said. Baker followed his bogey at 15 by going through the trees on the dogleg 16th and landing in the middle of the green, some 12 feet away for eagle.

That putt just missed, leaving him a tap-in birdie to get to 12-under for the tournament. His tee shot on the par-3 17th left him a 20-footer to tie that was just short. After Womble’s birdie on 18, Baker was forced into making eagle to tie. He found the green in two, but the 30-foot putt was about 18 inches short. Womble, whose previous best round in competition was a 64 at last year’s Memorial, ended at 6961–130. Baker settled for 64-67–131, left to lament those three-putts on the second, seventh, 13th and 15th holes. Brad Womble, who caddied for his son in the tournament, won the Memorial in 1996. Davis put the victory in the topfive of his storied junior career to this point, mentioning that the Donald Ross crown he captured at Pinehurst over the winter was a key milestone. “Honestly, I didn’t think this would be the year that I would win it,” he said of the Memorial. “I felt I was too far behind to start the day.” Jacob Eggers enjoyed a strong Sunday with a 64 to finish in third place with a 133. Marcus Gray was fourth at 137 and Webb Grubb fifth at 140. Ricky Zachary won the

first flight championship after a 71-67–138. Paige Stalcup, the only woman in the field, fired rounds of 75 and 70 from the blue and white tees used in the event and took second place in the fifth flight. After everyone got done gawking at the 61 posted on the scoreboard, the Blair Park patio turned into a rollicking picnic area where players enjoyed a feast from BBQ Joe’s and got their award certificates and raffle prizes. The festive event also turned solemn as the annual tournament to remember deceased members of the High Point Golf Association held a moment of silence. Longtime Enterprise sports writer Tom Berry, while never a member of the HPGA, was memorialized by the group on its plaque in the Blair Park clubhouse. Berry covered countless HPGA events prior to his death last August. HPGA president Bryan Colquitt capped the event by thanking the 168 players for coming out as well as the many businesses that provided prizes. “It was a great tournament,” he said. “A good field, good prizes, and the second year in a row we had a one-shot win and a great round on the final day.” shanf@hpe.com | 888-3526

HIT AND RUN

s a car owner in NASCAR’s top series, Chip Ganassi still is searching for ways to duplicate his winning ways in Indy Car racing and in the Grand-Am sports car series. Outside of NASCAR, Ganassi is one of the biggest fish. In NASCAR, not so much. In 748 starts by his cars that began in 2001, Ganassi has been to victory lane just seven times. One of those seven came when Jamie McMurray won the Daytona 500 in February. That set the stage for Ganassi to claim

a piece of auto racing history and get one up on fellow NASCAR/IRL team owner Roger Penske on Sunday when Dario Franchitti won the Indianapolis 500. The moment Franchitti stretched his dwindling fuel enough to cross the fabled yard of bricks first, Ganassi became the first to achieve the double of winning the Daytona 500 and the Indianapolis 500 in the same year. “It was a huge deal,” said Juan Pablo Montoya, one of Ganassi’s stock-car drivers and a

former Indy 500 winner. “He had never won Daytona before and now, to get both in the same year, I know how much that means for Chip and everybody in the organization.” Montoya took some of the luster off of the day when he spun early in the Coca-Cola 600 and was forced to go to the garage for repairs. In the long run, Ganassi’s achievement will continue to shine, even if he isn’t one of NASCAR’s dominant team owners.

nthony Baker still owns the course record at Blair Park. By coming oh so close to the low-water mark on Sunday, Davis Womble passed Baker in the second round of the HPGA Memorial and captured the SPORTS tournament title. Steve Womble, a Hanf rising junior ■■■ at Wesleyan Christian Academy, recorded an 11-under-par 61 at Blair Park to win the twoday event by a single shot. Baker, who carded a 60 during a practice round for the HPGA Memorial some six or seven years ago, followed up Saturday’s 8-under 64 with a 67 on Sunday. His shot at winning a second straight Memorial disappeared in a flurry of three-putts. “You shoot 61, you’re not supposed to lose,” Baker said. “If you do, it’s just bad luck. That was a great round he played.” Word of Womble’s feats began spreading across the course early in his round. He knocked in birdies at the first three holes and No. 6 before finding trouble at the seventh – a par-5 usually

Vitali Klitschko of Ukraine defended his WBC heavyweight championship belt Saturday night with a 10thround knockout of Albert Sosnowski of Poland in Gelsenkirchen, Germany. Klitschko improved his record to 42-2 (38 KOs) after the ring referee called the 12-round bout following a left-right combination to Sosnowski’s head at the 2 minute, 30 second mark of the 10th round. The Warsaw native, looking to become the first Polish heavyweight world champion, was gradually worn down by the taller and heavier Klitschko and dropped to 45-22 (27 KOs). Klitschko said afterward that he would like to fight either WBA title holder David Haye or Nikolai Valuev. The champion had about 5 inches and 20 pounds on Sosnowski.

Hutchens endures wild ride at Bowman Gray S

AP

Dario Franchitti of Scotland celebrates with the traditional bottle of milk after winning the Indianapolis 500 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway on Sunday. It marked Franchitti’s second triumph in the Indy 500.

Flawless Franchitti gets a break to win Indy INDIANAPOLIS (AP) – Dario Franchitti drove 199 nearly flawless laps, then survived the last one with a huge break from a spectacular crash to climb back on top of the open-wheel world Sunday with his second win at the Indianapolis 500. Two years removed from a failed try in NASCAR, Franchitti held on with a scant 1.6 gallons of fuel left in the tank – a victory made possible by a crash that sent Mike Conway airborne and into the wall, and left the final lap to be run under a caution flag. “Still running,” the winner told his crew over the radio as he crossed the finish line, while wreckers were moving out to scoop up debris from Conway’s accident with Ryan Hunter-Reay.

The victory made Franchitti’s boss, Chip Ganassi, the first owner to win Indy and NASCAR’s Daytona 500 in the same year. It also validated the Scottish driver’s return to the IndyCar circuit two years after celebrating his 2007 Indy victory by making an unsuccessful move with Ganassi to NASCAR. England’s Dan Wheldon, the 2005 winner who closed furiously as Franchitti slowed to save fuel in the final laps, was second. After a post-race review, the official order of finish was revised with Marco Andretti in third, followed by Brit Alex Lloyd and Scott Dixon . Conway, who waved to the crowd as he was being taken off the track, was airlifted to the hospital with a broken leg.

Pole-sitter Helio Castroneves saw his quest for a record-tying fourth Indy victory come to an end with an uncharacteristic mistake – stalling out while leaving the pits on the 146th lap. It left him in need of a yellow-flag miracle at the end that never came, and he finished ninth after one last pit stop on the 193rd lap. Danica Patrick picked and poked her way from 23rd to finish sixth despite a balky car that she had complained about in qualifying. Patrick never found her comfort zone in the 88-degree weather – at one point saying she wished she could make up as much time on the track as in the pits – but she was patient and disciplined and now has five top-10 finishes in six years.

tewart-Haas Racing director of competition Bobby Hutchens now owns an unwanted distinction with one of his drivers, Ryan Newman. Both have been upside down in a race car within the last seven months. Newman got on his top when his car became airborne at Talladega last fall. Hutchens wound up on his roof in Saturday night’s 100-lap Modified feature at Bowman Gray Stadium. Hutchens, making his first start of the season, was on the outside when the left-front wheel of his car became locked with the right-front wheel of another car on the backstretch. Hutchens’ car climbed the guardrail and lazily flopped over and landed on its top. Hutchens said it was the first time he has been on his roof. “It was a weird wreck,” Hutchens said before Sunday’s Coca-Cola 600. “I thought that when I climbed the guard rail, I was going to wind up on two wheels. But, I think when we got to where the concrete grandstand juts out to the rail, it tipped me over.” Hutchens was uninjured, but needed several minutes to work his way through the driver opening when he had trouble getting free of his helmet and HANS device. “I haven’t ever had trouble getting my HANS device off but I‘ve never tried to do it upside down before,” Hutchens said. “I’ve got a bigger window opening than most guys over there but I’m going to have to take a look at it and see if I can make it bigger.” Hutchens’ car was damaged so badly that he will likely have to scrap plans to make his second start of the season next week. He said the wreck that was his third bad crash at the end of the backstretch. He wound up on two wheels in one of them.

ISTANBUL (AP) – Lewis Hamilton led McLaren to a 1-2 finish at the Turkish Grand Prix on Sunday after a costly runin between teammates Mark Webber and Sebastian Vettel denied Red Bull a shot at the top two spots. The pair touched as Vettel looked to pass along the Istanbul Park Circuit’s fastest section, causing the German driver to spin out of the race. Webber, who had led for the entire 40 laps to that point, recovered for third behind Jenson Button as Red Bull’s pit-lane team looked on in disbelief.

The McLaren team also had some nervous moments near the end as its drivers exchanged the lead, but Hamilton eventually earned his first win of the season by 2.6 seconds after rain had sprinkled the circuit. It was McLaren’s second 1-2 showing this season. Webber leads the drivers’ standings with 93 points, while Button moved into second with 88 points – four more than Hamilton. Fernando Alonso of Ferrari finished eighth to improve to 79 points and Vettel stayed on 78.

Parker prevails at Caraway ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

ASHEBORO – The feud at Caraway Speedway between cousins Junior Kendrick of Thomasville and Josh Lowder of Randleman continued from the last race in which the two protested each other. Saturday night, Lowder deliberately wrecked Kendrick on the last lap. Lowder was disqualified for his actions. In the midst of this, rookie Shawn Parker captured his first career Limited Late Model win. Kirk Sheets of Walkertown, Noah Triplett of Lexington, Paul Wark of Winston Salem and Tyler Jordan of Robbins rounded out the top five. In the Twin 75 Lap Late Model Stock event, High Point’s Travis Swaim dominated victory lane by winning both events and the Bud Pole Award. Mack Little III of Kernersville, Dan Moore of Bear Creek, Ryan Rhodes of Sanford and Corey Strickland of Dunn rounded out the top five finishers in the first twin. In the second twin, Ryan Wilson of Randleman, Strickland, Pete Stewart of Archdale and Nick Hoffman of Con-

cord rounded out the top five finishers. In the Custom Steel Fabricators Super Mini Truck event, Scottie York of Asheboro took home the win and Bud Pole Award. Ray Chriscoe of Randleman, Anthony Bennett of Asheboro, Glenn Chriscoe Jr of Randleman and Jason Poole of Randleman rounded out the top five finishers. In the U-Car event, Derrick Thomas of Randleman captured his third win of the season. Austin Moore of Troy, Richard Jones of Thomasville, Nick Passmore of Thomasville and Dana Richardson of Thomasville rounded out the top five finishers. Allen Vance of Randleman was disqualified for wrecking Chase Hunt after the race had ended. In the Pure Stock event, Darrin Free of Sophia took home the win. Ben Hanks of Lexington, Jimmy Cooper of Asheboro and Perry Hanes rounded out the finish order. Next weekend there will be no racing action at the speedway. The next event will be June 11 featuring Twin 30 laps for the Sportsmans, Late Model Super Trucks, Legends, Street Stocks and Mini Stocks.

KESELOWSKI AILING Brad Keselowski drove Saturday and Sunday still hurting from injuries received when his Dodge slapped the wall in qualifying on Thursday. “My jaw hurts pretty good,” Keselowski said after finishing second in Saturday’s 300-lsp Nationwide race. “The inside of my face is all tore up from the wreck on Thursday. My helmet and microphone just hit that hard and it all came up inside and busted my face up.”

SEARCHING FOR ANSWERS Tony Stewart came into Sunday’s race with just one top-five finish in the first 13 races of the season, after winning four times last year in his first season as an owner-driver. “I think the cars are better than the ones we had last year.” Hutchens said. “But, something that we’ve done just doesn’t agree with Tony and we’ve got to figure out what it is.”

Venus falls in fourth round PARIS (AP) – So much for the thought that this might be the year Venus Williams would make a strong showing at the French Open. So much for the thought that she and her younger sister Serena, the tournament’s two top-seeded women, could deliver another all-Williams Grand Slam final.

Displaying little of the spark or strokes she regularly produces on grass and hard courts, and playing little like someone with the tour’s best 2010 winning percentage, Williams stalled on the red clay of Roland Garros yet again Sunday, exiting in the fourth round with a 6-4, 6-3 loss to No. 19 Nadia Petrova.

Petrova will face No. 5 Elena Dementieva in an all-Russian quarterfinal. Dementieva ended the surprising stay of 131st-ranked qualifier Chanelle Scheepers, by winning 6-1, 6-3. No. 3 Caroline Wozniacki of Denmark will play No. 17 Francesca Schiavone of Italy in another quarterfinal.

Myers repeats at Bowman Gray ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

WINSTON-SALEM – For the second week in a row, Burt Myers of Walnut Cove found himself battling outsiderow challengers for restart after restart. And on Saturday – for the second week in a row – Myers was able to maintain his composure and come away with the checkered flag. Tim Brown of Cana, Va. had the fastest qualifying lap for Saturday’s Whelen 100 for the Bill Plemmons RV World Modified Series. But when the competitors had a full-field draw for starting positions, it was Myers who plucked the pole as his starting spot. On the outside row beside Myers was Jonathan Brown of Winston-Salem – a competitor that has had a history of run-ins and hard racing with the Myers team. As the green flag waved, Myers shot out into the lead – but a series of cautions gave Brown a few more chances to pull up beside Myers for another shot. In fact, with 5 cautions before lap 60, Myers had to again and again perform flawlessly to defend his lead. Realizing that the track conditions on the outside groove were starting to not favor his car setup, Brown opted not to choose the outside lane and challenge Brown for the remaining four cautions of the night. Instead, Lee Jeffreys of Wallburg was given the chance to pull up and fight for the lead. With a 12th place starting position, the outside row

was something that Jeffreys used each and every time to claw his way through the field. “We didn’t have anything for Burt. We wore out what we had trying to get there, and he could just run what he needed to,” said Jeffreys. Myers went on to claim the checkered with Jeffreys taking over second place. Jonathan Brown finished third. In the Sportsman Series, hardcharging Derek Stoltz of Walkertown claimed checkered in the first 20-lap race. Steven Truell of Midway finished second, and Luke Fleming of Mount Airy took third. Joseph “Bobo” Brown of WinstonSalem initially claimed the win in the second Sportsman race. However, Brown failed to submit to post-race technical inspection – and Mitch Gales of Thomasville was declared the winner. Tommy Neal of Walkertown and Ronnie Clifton of Walkertown finished second and third. Brian Wall of Winston-Salem brought home the win in the 20-lap race for the 104.1 WTQR Street Stock Series. It was Wall’s first win ever at the Stadium. Zack Clifton of Walkertown came in second with Allen Henkel of Trinity close behind in third. In the Time Warner Cable Stadium Stock Series, veteran Gerald Robertson of Germanton showed the young guns how it’s done by taking the victory in the first 15-lapper. Wayne Hill of Kernersville claimed the checkered in the second race.

Lopez powers Seminoles past Pack for ACC crown GREENSBORO (AP) – Rafael Lopez drove in three runs to lead Florida State past North Carolina State 8-3 on Sunday in the Atlantic Coast Conference championship game. Jayce Boyd had two RBIs and Lopez’s tiebreaking single in the seventh put the Seminoles (42-17) ahead for good. They claimed their fifth ACC title and first since 2004, and finally won one in the state of North Carolina. This one took a scary turn in the eighth when N.C. State catcher Chris Schaeffer was injured in a collision at home plate with Florida State baserunner James Ramsey. Schaeffer laid motionless near the plate for 10 minutes and was taken off the field in an ambulance. Andrew Ciencin homered and drove in two runs for

the seventh-seeded Wolfpack (38-22). They were denied their first title since 1992. Mike McGee hit his team-leading 14th home run and Sean Gilmartin worked 3 1-3 innings of relief for the victory for Florida State, which was 0-3 in the championship round in the state after losing the title game in Durham three times since 1996 – including last year to Virginia. The Seminoles got plenty of pop from the bottom of their order, with the bottom three driving in seven runs. Boyd’s sacrifice fly in the seventh scored Ramsey and advanced Stephen Cardullo to third. After an intentional walk, Lopez lofted an RBI single that made it 4-3. FSU added four runs in the eighth, starting when McGee led off with his drive off loser Grant Sasser. Ramsey scored following his collision with Schaeffer, and Lopez followed

that with a two-run single to stretch the lead to five. Ciencin twice gave the Wolfpack the lead. His drive leading off the second put them up 1-0, and his single in the fifth scored Dallas Poulk made it 3-2. N.C. State didn’t have the luxury of much turnaround time after a long Saturday at the ballpark. The Wolfpack beat Georgia Tech in the completion of a suspended game early that afternoon, then earned their spot in the championship game with a 10-9 10-inning victory over Virginia Tech that wasn’t over until 1:25 a.m. – less than 12 hours before the title game. Meanwhile, the Seminoles had plenty of time to rest up – they wrapped up pool play Friday and were off Saturday while Virginia sent them into the title game by beating Miami.

THOMASVILLE – Chasing the Martinsville Mustangs all night long, the HiToms tried to corral their rivals from the Coastal Plain League Western Division. Each time they were within reach, though, the Mustangs were a slight step ahead, escaping Finch Field with an 8-6 win late Saturday evening. “The big thing is we took the adversity and kept fighting back,” said HiToms manager Tom Dorzweiler. “We kept digging and didn’t give up.” Martinsville led 3-0 through and inning and a half, but the HiToms rallied back to within 3-2. Starter Clint Ingram – a former Post 87 standout – struggled in his CPL pitching debut through the first couple of innings, but settled into a nice groove through the middle innings. He kept the Martinsville bats quiet and gave his team a chance to overtake the Mustangs, but the offense could not muster up any runs. “He pitched a great game,” Dorzweiler said. “He did really great for us out there.” The HiToms drop to 2-2, while the Mustangs improve to 2-1. Matt Dillon, John Neese, Freeman and Kyle Barbeck each had two hits for the HiToms. In the eighth, the Mustangs tacked on

what proved to be three critical insurance runs. After a walk and a single, an RBI hit by Jeff Forgerson chased Ingram off the hill. Jacob Cadle – another Post 87 product – came on in relief, but his outing was shaky, as he gave up two hits and let two more runs score, making it 6-2 Mustangs. The HiToms matched the productivity of their foes in the bottom half, plating three runs themselves to get back within one. Seth Freeman delivered the first two with a two-run double that scored Daniel Kassouf and Mike Patman. Ben Grisz would also score after reaching on an error, coming home on an error for a 6-5 game. Again, the Mustangs came with the goods to score two runs in the ninth, then they held off a one-run rally by the HiToms in the ninth to preserve the win. A few more players have arrived since last game, giving the HiToms a little more depth to work with. More are expected to trickle in the next few days, but it has been a struggle for Dorzweiler trying to piece together a lineup. “We have guys playing out of position and pitchers that have thrown a lot,” he said. “I have nothing negative to say about the way we are playing.”

Top lines regroup after empty Cup finals opener CHICAGO (AP) – More startling than the frenetic pace between the Chicago Blackhawks and Philadelphia Flyers that produced 11 goals in the Stanley Cup finals opener was who was left off the score sheet. In Chicago’s 6-5 win – the highest scoring championship round game since 1992 – both teams’ top lines and top guns

couldn’t find the net. They went pointless. So what will happen if Jonathan Toews, Patrick Kane and Dustin Byfuglien get going for the Blackhawks, and if Mike Richards, Jeff Carter and Simon Gagne find their rhythm for the Flyers? Could it be 11-10 in Game 2 tonight? Most likely not. “I thought we had good

looks. We just didn’t score and did everything but,” Richards said Sunday. During Sunday’s off day, both teams stressed tightening up the defense, reducing giveaways and doing a better job of clearing pucks out of the defensive end. Toews, who leads with 26 playoff points, was a minus-3 and recorded only one shot in Game 1.

Wal-Mart tries to revive sales mojo NEW YORK (AP) — WalMart is counting on $1 ketchup bottles and sub$4 cases of Coke to get its low-price mojo back. The sharp cuts at its U.S. Walmart stores, which came ahead of Memorial Day weekend, have already pushed rivals such as Target into price wars. And the markdowns are expected to keep coming throughout the summer. They’re one of the boldest moves the world’s largest retailer is making to turn around sluggish business at its U.S. namesake chain and win back shoppers from rivals. The cuts aren’t across the store but target 22 foods and other essentials at an average savings of 30 percent — splashy enough to get attention and perhaps change perceptions. The world’s largest retailer is also restoring items like certain soups and laundry detergent it stopped carrying when it tried to declutter its stores. It’s also pushing more basic clothing such as socks and underwear after putting too much focus on trendy items that didn’t sell. Wal-Mart was one of the few beneficiaries when the Great Recession began, as shoppers traded down to save money. Now it’s having trouble keeping customers in a slowly recovering economy. Cash-strapped shoppers are looking elsewhere for

Mary Oksten loads her vehicle outside a Walmart store in Deptford, N.J. better deals such as dollar stores and local grocery chains. And some wealthier customers, feeling more flush, are starting to head back to the mall. Wal-Mart, which generated more than $400 billion in revenue in 2009, has blamed stubbornly

high unemployment and tight credit for adding even more financial strain on its blue-collar customers. Deloris Harris, 72, of Ridgeway, S.C., said she pulled back from food shopping at Walmart stores in the last year because chains such as Food

Lion were offering even better deals. “Some of the stuff isn’t that cheap,” said Harris, who picked up 10 ears of corn for $2 and hamburger rolls for 99 cents at Food Lion on Friday. Wal-Mart acknowledged during its latest confer-

ence call with investors that its moves to carry fewer items went too far. It’s now replenishing 300 it had dropped. Analysts estimated that Wal-Mart pared up to 15 percent of its inventory, sending shoppers elsewhere in search of their favorite brands.

British Airways workers launch new strike LONDON (AP) – British Airways cabin crew launched a new five-day strike Sunday as a bitter dispute with management over pay and working conditions dragged on with no sign of any breakthrough. Many flights to and from London’s Heathrow – Europe’s busiest airport – were affected by the walkout. But the airline insisted it could operate more than half of its services because more cabin crew than expected had decided to cross the picket line.

Cabin crew walked off their jobs May 24 for five days and began the new round of strikes Sunday after talks collapsed Friday. They plan to strike for another five days beginning June 5, if a solution to the long-running dispute is not found. Seven days of walkouts in March over the same dispute cost BA around 43 million pounds ($63 million). The two sides are at odds over staffing on long-haul flights and other work conditions.

The airline said it planned to fly more than 70 percent of its longhaul flights, compared to the 60 percent it had operated during last week’s strike. Fifty-five percent of British Airways’ short-haul flights will take off, slightly more than the 50 percent last week. The airline said all BA flights will operate at London’s smaller Gatwick and London City airports. BA said it expected to fly 65,000 customers – about 75 percent

of those with a ticket – between Sunday and Thursday. Heathrow airport’s Web site showed about ten outgoing BA flights were disrupted Sunday morning, while a handful of BA flights arriving from places including South Africa, Washington D.C. and Egypt had to be canceled. The Unite union, which represents about 90 percent of BA’s 12,000 cabin crew staff, has blamed BA chief executive Willie Walsh for the deadlock.

LONDON (AP) – Technophiles mobbed Apple Stores in Europe and Asia on Friday in a quest to snatch up the hottest gadget of the moment – the iPad. Long lines snaked down streets in London, Paris, Frankfurt and Tokyo as eager buyers vied to wield their credit cards. “If I was a music fan, it would be like the launch of a Lady GaGa album in the U.S.,” said comedian Stephen Fry. Apple Inc., based in Cupertino, California, said earlier this month that it had sold 1 million of the devices in the United States in just 28 days. Newspaper publishers have seized upon the device as an opportunity to finally make large numbers of readers pay for online content. Britain’s Financial Times newspaper launched its iPad version at a swank hotel in Switzerland, claiming the app has already been downloaded over 100,000 times in the United States. Rob Grimshaw, managing director of FT.com. said 20 percent of new digital subscriptions to the paper came from iPad users last week.

Wall Street focuses on retailers, spending NEW YORK (AP) – Europe has spooked stock investors. Will it spook shoppers, too? Lately Americans have started spending a bit more, giving a lift to the economy and confounding doomsayers and even logic. After all, unemployment is still near double digits and many consumers have seen their paychecks shrink or disappear. Now fear is growing that we may turn into tightwads again. Worries over European debt troubles and the impact they might have on the U.S. economy have sent stocks down 10 percent from their April peaks. The hit to portfolios, the argument goes, could make Americans too scared to shop, removing a crucial plank to the recovery. “The European financial crisis affects consumer psychology,” said Mark Vitner, a Wells Fargo econo-

DILBERT

mist. “We think people are going to pull back from spending.” This week brings a flurry of figures that may tell whether Vitner is right. Among them are reports on auto and chain stores sales and the unemployment rate for May. On Friday, the Commerce Department reported consumer spending, which accounts for 70 percent of total U.S. economic activity, didn’t grow at all in April. In the previous three months, it jumped 3.5 percent, the fastest clip in seven years. Adding to the jitters, the CEOs of Target Corp. and Gap Inc. have described spending at their stores lately as “volatile” and “unpredictable.” That suggests that even the experts are confused about what lies ahead. Predictions about this week’s figures suggest we’ll be left with a mixed picture.

Economists expect the auto report on Wednesday will show vehicles were sold at an annual rate of 11.4 million in May. That would be down slightly from April but up from March. Sales at chain stores open at least a year come out Thursday. Here consumers may disappoint. The International Council of Shopping Centers recently cut its forecast for May sales growth to anywhere from 2 percent to 2.5 percent. It originally expected sales to grow 3.5 percent. On Friday, the government releases the unemployment rate for May. The consensus among economists is 9.9 percent, equal to April’s figure. A positive: Employers are forecast to have created 500,000 jobs, continuing an upward trend from the past few months.

Churchgoers somber after plug attempt falls flat BOOTHVILLE, La. (AP) – The reality that the Gulf oil leak could keep flowing for months was setting in for some somber churchgoers in Louisiana. In Plaquemines Parish near the mouth of the Mississippi River, the Rev. Theodore Turner said on Sunday some of his congregants are getting desperate because BP has been unable to stop the leak. Turner, of Mount Olive Baptist Church in Boothville, says about a third of his congregation is made up of fishermen.

At St. Patrick’s Catholic Church in Port Sulphur, church member Lyle Stockstill says the community is drawing closer to their faith as the nation’s worst oil spill grows.
