HIGH POINT – The lingering effects of the spring High Point Market and upbeat economic reports may bode well for the fabric trade show Showtime that opened Sunday. Exhibitors at the biannual trade show said traffic on Monday remained consistent with the last show, held Dec. 6-10, which saw a 6 percent registration increase from the same time last year. Also, a trend seen at the High Point Market of retailers needing to restock their floors may be playing out at the fabric show as well. The recent spring High Point Market saw its first year-to-year registration increase since 2006, when the numbers began being released to the public. “Everyone’s inventory is down,” said Anne Birnbaum, president of Norcross, Ga.-based Biran LTD. “I think people are trying to look at some new products to engage clients. Re-orders on existing product are not so good, but orders on new product are much better.” At Showtime, fabrics mostly for the home furnishings industry are displayed, but representatives from some fabric retail stores also attend the event, said Catherine Morsell, executive director of the International

Monday usually is the busiest day in terms of traffic and business, said Daniel Bonini, president of Waverly Fabrics. Traffic was normal Monday, but the mood of buyers was reported to be more upbeat this year. That parallels reports from the furniture market. “(Buyers) are still cautious about inventory commitments, but they are at least more confident that things have stabilized,” Bonini said. “Demand is not
imploding or getting worse, but it isn’t robust either.” Middleton, Mass.-based Regal Fabrics Inc. also reported a more positive attitude at the show but slow traffic as of Monday. “Traffic is slow for us without appointments,” said Ronda Wilson, a representative with the company, “but there is an upbeat vibe left from the furniture market.” The High Point Convention and Visitor’s Bureau estimates that Showtime books 2,150 rooms and has an economic impact of $1,346,780.

Apixir was formed by three partners with considerable pharmaceutical industry experience, officials said.
HIGH POINT – The City Council on Monday gave preliminary approval to paying cash incentives to a startup pharmaceutical and biotechnology firm considering a north High Point location. The city will pay Apixir Pharma Sciences up to $35,000 in economic development incentives if its representatives decide to establish a facility that meets certain conditions in office space at Premier Office & Technology Park, under a resolution adopted during the council’s meeting. The firm’s activities would include researching, developing and manufacturing drug intermediates and other products and providing research and development services to companies in the biotech, pharmaceutical and chemical industries.
The company plans to create at least 25 local jobs over its first three years of operation. According to High Point Economic Development Corp. President Loren Hill, the company plans to create at least 25 local jobs over its first three years of operation – primarily scientist and researcher jobs, with an average wage between $40,000 and $50,000. The company would add at least $2 million to the city tax base, officials said.
Hill said High Point is the leading contender for the project, but other Triad locations, as well as sites out of state, are being considered. Councilmen Bill Bencini and Mike Pugh voted against the resolution. The incentives would be paid out in installments once the company met certain benchmarks for investment levels and job creation. Hill said the site being considered was previously occupied by Ciba Specialty Chemicals, which closed recently. Hill said the city has twice granted incentives for startup companies during his tenure. One firm still is in operation, and the other is not. Under city guidelines, a business in north High Point must invest at least $17.5 million to be eligible for incentives, but a provision that would apply to Apixir allows for certain types of high-tech or emerging industries to be exempt from this, Hill said.
Also Monday, the council held the first of two public hearings on the city’s proposed 2010-11 budget. Two members of the North Carolina Shakespeare Festival’s Board of Trustees spoke, asking the council to appropriate for the second straight year $50,000 for the festival in the form of credit for rental of the cityoperated High Point Theatre – money that is in the proposed budget. The only other speaker was Debbie Lumpkins, executive director of the High Point Area Arts Council, whose organization is slated for a 5 percent reduction in city funding, to $117,063. The other public hearing on the budget, which would hold the property tax rate steady but increase utility rates, is scheduled for Thursday at 9 a.m. Council is expected to adopt the budget June 21. pkimbrough@hpe.com | 888-3531

Archdale planners approve gaming ordinance change BY JORDAN HOWSE ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
ARCHDALE – Businesses that have video poker and other electronic gaming operations may face tougher restrictions on their hours of operation and where they can set up shop. The Archdale Planning and Zoning Board approved to amend the restrictions on electronic gaming operations at its meeting Monday. The text amendment will go to the City Council for consideration at its June 22 regular monthly meeting. “These businesses started popping up around town, and we didn’t have an identified use listed in the current ordinance,” said Jeffrey Wells, planning director of Archdale. “The amendment gives us the opportunity to give specific control of the use they need to have.”
The current Archdale zoning ordinances defines electronic gaming operations as businesses where people utilize computers and gaming terminals to conduct games of chance, including sweepstakes, where cash, merchandise or other items of value are redeemed or distributed. These operations include internet cafes and sweepstakes, and electronic gaming machines. Existing electronic gaming operations will be grandfathered in if the amendment is approved. Future operations will be allowed to operate as special-use in the highway and general business zoning districts with special requirements. They will be allowed to operate from 8 a.m. to midnight, have a maximum number of 20 terminals and one parking space per terminal. They also must not operate within 200 feet of residentially zoned property or 500 feet from

any religious or child care facility, school, park or another electronic gaming operation. If food is served in the establishment, they must meet state and local health department requirements, and no alcohol can be served or consumed on the premises. “The operations will be allowed mostly along Main Street and Archdale Road and parts of N.C. 62, the general and highway business districts in the city limits,” Wells said. A maximum of 4 terminals are allowed as an accessory use. In order to have electronic gaming as an accessory use, the gross floor area of the principal business must be a minimum of 1,000 square feet. No businesses or residents in attendance were in favor or against the amendment.

nizations, they may do less programming.” The 48year-old United Arts Council of Greater Greensboro does no programming, although it once did with events such as the outdoor City Stage that were too dependent on the weather for success. Now it is solely a fundraising arts council. In 2008 it made its largestever pool of funds available to more than its 15 affiliate groups, to include other nonprofit arts groups, said Altina Layman, interim president and CEO and director of marketing and community affairs. “I think an organization has to continually evolve and listen to the needs of the community and adapt to whatever those needs might be,” Layman said. “Nonprofits are no different. We have to listen to our customers and respond accordingly.”

The 60-year-old Arts Council of Winston-Salem does programming through the two facilities it operates: Hanes Community Center and the newly renovated Sawtooth Center. “We program exhibits, and we create programs by offering to our funded partners space to do their programs,” said Milton Rhodes, president and CEO. “We also have brought in groups such as High Point Ballet through our grants program to perform and to do workshops. So through the use of our space, we program and market the availability of our programs.” Of the $3.25 million the Arts Council of WinstonSalem recently raised, $700,000 (21.5 percent) goes to facilities operations, which includes programming, Rhodes said. vknopfler@hpe.com | 888-3601

Bikini coffee shop sparks boycott in Colorado AURORA, Colo. (AP) – A suburban Denver city councilwoman is urging people to boycott businesses near a coffee shop that sends bikiniclad women onto nearby city streets to advertise. Councilwoman Molly Markert sent a letter of complaint, signed by about 30 Aurora resi-
dents, to the manager of the property where Perky Cups operates. Markert suggested in the May 20 letter that the women promoting the coffee shop were in danger of being “raped and murdered.” She wrote that the petition signers have pledged to not buy anything at the shopping cen-
ter until the women stop advertising in the streets. Perky Cups owner Jason Bernal says his 10 employees aren’t at risk and that Markert’s letter went overboard. Nearby storeowners are divided on whether the bikini-clad coffee saleswomen are helping or hurting business.

Art takes center stage at auction D
o you remember the movie, “If It’s Tuesday, This Must Be Belgium?â€? It was stereotypical reference to seeing Europe in one week. Well, it seems that the month of May was something of a parallel to that theorem with so many events I often found myself saying something like, “If it’s Friday, this must be The Theatre Arts Galleries (TAG) Southern Cities Springtime Gala Art Auction,â€? or perhaps, “If this is Friday, then it is Simon Jewelers Hollywood in High ABOUT Point.â€? TOWN Both Mary answers Bogest would be correct and they were held on concurring Fridays last month. Both were great events and I’m excited that I can share them with you. So buckle up you seat belts, we’re in for a fun ride! I can’t believe that this was the first time that I had the opportunity to attend the spring gala for TAG. This really is a “not to be missedâ€? event. For several years, it was held in private homes and, in more recent years, it moved to various showrooms. This year, it was held at the Swaim Design Center on S. Main Street. This is the same showroom (different room, however) that also plays host to the annual Silent Auction that highlights the work of the artists with the Arc of High Point. This was the fifth year that Swaim has welcomed the Arc to their showroom for this event so kudos to Swaim for taking an interest in our community. “Southern Citiesâ€? is the largest fundraiser for TAG and art lovers â– â– â–

In addition to being free, my buzz words for TAG’s exhibits are “four times four.� The exhibits change four times a year and their are four galleries among the TA “Galleries.� In addition to exhibits in the Main Gallery on the first floor, there is Gallery B, the Hallway Gallery and most impressive, the Kaleidoscope Youth Gallery on the second floor. The current exhibits runs through June 28th with the following exhibits opening on July 18 through October 11th which will include some pieces from TAG’s permanent collection and the North Carolina Pastel Society. Plan on attending the reception (also free) on Aug. 23! TAG has something for the entire family. Throughout the year, there are workshops, art classes, trips There are summer art camps for children and each fall they host a free community art day. Trotman also told me about a new art program that will be offered to foster children this summer to promote “positive communication skills, self-confidence, trust, and provide the family with a unique, and memorable experience.� I think it will also be a lot of fun. The Fostering Families art workshops are offered free of charge thanks to a generous grant from the Target Community Foundation. What a wonderful idea.

The chairmen of the gala were Char Bivins, Larinda Charles and Liz Jones. Many on the board of directors also were spotted. They included President Julie Delgaudio, Vice President Whitney Heard and board members including Christi Barbour, Emilee Brigman, Kathy Rohrbeck, Julie Samuels, Karen Slate and Penn Wood, who (as you mayremember) was a cojudge with me at the hat contest for the Kentucky Derby Party. Some of the artists meandered among the patrons. It was a joy to see my friend Bill Gramley, who has become known for his pastels, and I met artist John Gall of

Some tea partyers leave much to be desired Actions, motions, behavior, attitudes, personalities, and character speak volumes of words. The “tea party” people always talk “klandatine” when it comes to being a race based organization. They claim to be non-racist, constitutional forefather believers, and Christians that need to be separated from other people. White-only, colored-only water fountains, rest rooms, restaurants, and business syndrome symptoms of private separatism, must not be rebirthed. Americans (people) have been taught white versus black; Jew verses Gentiles (religion), but has failed to teach all are “covered” and “colored” by “God” from “black to white, from white to black.” We have become a people that mirrors a potato chip bag, sealed up with air (evil contentment), very little chips, (life giving substance). Government has fulfilled its constitutional commitment by slave ownership labor (pay), for servant gratitude. Our system has always been tweaked (weakened) to provide great employee (workers) service at the lowest pay (salary). Authority over ability has created a system of accredited slavery that allows increasing taxes, with

a useless benefit of return. The servant (employee) is worthy (justly pay) of his hire (work). Hired servants (treated as slaves) have been unjustly benefited by unjust governments (Jew, Gentile, Roman, America) from federal, state and city. The constitution (man-made) of rules, laws, policies, and statues (favor), continues to be amended, changed, corrected, accredited (fixed-purposed), and race based. The constitution (forefathers) contains many acts (function-characteristics), changes of principles, standards, and policies that promote good and evil will. Bible commandments (forefathers) have never changed standards, principles, been amended, discredited or dysfunctional, discriminate or promote evil. Sticks (guns) and stones (war) maybreak (harm-injure) your bones, but a man-made “constitutional will,” will steal, kill, and destroy you! Our “blood” may be thicker than water, but “oil” is thicker than blood and water. J.R. RICKS, JR. Trinity
Corruption apparently is in eye of beholder Someone wrote that President Obama “is corrupting and giving our country away financially.” Wanna talk about real corruption and giving our money away? President Bush and Dick Cheney awarded contracts for logistical support in the Iraq war to Haliburton in secrecy, before most of us knew there was to be a war; contracts which in some cases, allowed Haliburton to provide the service, then name their price later. By law, those contracts were supposed to be put out for open bids. Most of us know Cheney was CEO of Haliburton until he resigned to become vice president. Lesser known is the Bush family’s ties to Haliburton. Bush’s grandfather was an executive officer of a company within the Haliburton conglomerate. I can’t think of anything more corrupt than lying their way into starting a war that’s cost
the lives of thousands of people, including thousands of innocent women and children; while using that same war to funnel billions of tax dollars to the company that Bush and Cheney have a long history of financial connections with! And what about torturing prisoners who were rounded up like cattle and never proven to have committed any terrorist act? Is that corruption or just plain evil? The writer wistfully says to “give Sarah Palin a chance. She’s wiser now.” But I remember Palin’s ridiculous lies about Obama’s “death panels” and “palling around with terrorists.” She has tied in with the tea partyers who are ripping apart what’s left of the Republican Party. (Maybe you’ve seen Tea Party Candidate Rand Paul’s interviews. He would allow restaurants to refuse to serve black Americans!) The Republican Party needs more of Sarah Palin like they need more of the hate and lies spewed out by Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck! CARL ROUTH High Point

Avenue of Flags lifts spirits hen High Point City Council member Latimer Alexander first began talking publicly about his Avenue of Flags idea about a year ago, many people to whom he talked probably thought he was seeing pie in the sky. But, should you drive or walk along Main Street between Gatewood and Russell avenues until the July 4 holiday week runs its course, you’ll see 50 American flags waving in the breeze. Alexander hopes at least 27 more flags will be purchased ($150 each for the flag and pole mounts) by companies and individuals to honor deserving folks in the community so there will be a sufficient number of flags to be spaced properly between Russell and Montlieu avenues. If even more flags are purchased, Alexander says the flags can fly from poles along major streets crossing Main downtown. Plans call for the flags to fly from Memorial Day through July 4, including Flag Day, June 14, then be taken down until they will be put up again for Veteran’s Day each year. Your support of the Avenue of Flags project will be appreciated both now and in the future. Good idea, Alexander! Thanks for following through. The flags look good and tend to give the observers’ spirits a boost – just what we need during these troubled times.

‘Wait ‘til next year’ theory wears mighty thin
N
orth Carolina has more government than North Carolina taxpayers can or wish to finance. That’s the fundamental cause of the state’s continuing budget woes – not the mortgage crisis, or misbehavior on Wall Street, or the misdeeds of George W. Bush or Barack Obama. The economic downturn may have triggered the state’s fiscal deficits. But the structural problem predated the recession. State and local government in North Carolina has grown rapidly during boom times. During economic busts, spending growth has slackened or even ceased for a time, but has never been significantly rolled back. Instead, governors and legislators have raised taxes to finance their past spending increases. Furthermore, policymakers have borrowed money without a public referendum to pay for budget items previously funded by current state revenue or general-obligation bonds. Their tactics have included certificates of participation (COPs) and tapping the federal government’s borrowing capacity through various stimulus and bailout funds. Both the Senate and House versions of the 2010-11 state budget would continue these practices. They would rely on some $3 billion in unwise and unsustainable fiscal policies, including federal bailouts and last year’s “temporary” tax increases. Legislative leaders may try to spin this budget as fiscally conservative, which does damage not just to North Carolina’s fiscal posture but also to the English language. There is nothing fiscally conservative about shoving a ramshackle budget through the General Assembly that assumes $3 billion worth of new taxes or federal borrowing in 2011 to finance the level of spending set in 2010. There is nothing fiscally conservative about compounding such a mistake with $450 million in new COPs debt, as the Senate is in
the process of approving. And there is nothing fiscally conservative about doing all this while ignoring North Carolina’s other fiscal time bombs, such as both short-term and long-term holes in the state’s health plan. I know, I know – the official OPINION line is that 2010 isn’t the year to start addressing these problems. John We’re in an election year and Hood still slogging through the end of ■■■ a deep recession. Wait until next year, we’re told. Only, we’ve been told that before. Repeatedly. The fabled “next year” for forging a sensible long-term fiscal plan for the state inevitably turns into a “this year” of short-term thinking and political gamesmanship. Instead of passing a $20 billion+ budget with a guaranteed $3 billion hole in 2011, legislative leaders should have pulled actual spending down below $19 billion, reducing next year’s deficit and giving themselves more room to maneuver. Then, during the 2011 session, they should have set a goal of reducing state spending further, if necessary, to a level equal to the revenues projected from the tax rates in place before the 2009 hikes. Instead of pursuing true fiscal conservatism, the Democratic majority in the General Assembly has chosen to stick with their original fiscal mistakes. Rely on more taxes and more borrowing. Keep increasing total state spending. Ignore the state’s many unfunded liabilities. And hope North Carolina taxpayers either don’t notice or don’t care. Sounds like a risky gamble to me.

Iran video said to show missing scientist TEHRAN, Iran – Iranian state television showed a video Monday of a man it identified as a missing nuclear scientist, who said he had been abducted and taken to the United States. The scientist, Shahram Amiri, disappeared while on a pilgrimage to Saudi Arabia in June 2009. U.S. media reports in March said he defected to the U.S. and is assisting the CIA in efforts to undermine Iran’s nuclear program.
UK to double its oil rig inspections LONDON – British officials said Tuesday they would double the number of inspections carried out at oil rigs in the North Sea following the disastrous leak at a BP-operated installation in the Gulf of Mexico. Britain’s Department of Energy said the average number of annual environmental checks aboard the country’s 24-odd drilling rigs would rise from eight to 16.
US: Afghan officials firing an internal matter LONDON – U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates urged Afghan President Hamid Karzai on Monday to replace two top security officials with ministers of “equal caliber,” and said the sacking of the pair does not signal trouble in Karzai’s government over efforts to seek a peace deal with the Taliban. Gates stepped gingerly in answering questions about the significance of the abrupt resignations. ENTERPRISE NEWS SERVICE REPORTS

Attacks leave 11 dead in Iraq BAGHDAD (AP) – Bombs and gunmen killed eleven people in a series of attacks in Iraq Monday, including a car bomb that exploded in a Baghdad shopping area. The late morning blast in the capital’s western Mansour neighborhood killed three and wounded at least nine people and damaged several shops, security and hospital officials said. Ball bearings, apparently packed inside the car to increase the number of casualties, littered the bomb site. Although violence has fallen sharply in recent years, Iraqi security forces still struggle to stop deadly attacks as U.S. troops prepare to withdraw. The violence threatens
to further destabilize the country and hospi ta l official s said.

Iraq scolds Iran over Kurd shelling HAJ OMRAN, Iraq (AP) – Iraq said Monday it has protested to Iran over what it called an improper use of force in the northern Kurdistan region, a reference to repeated shelling there. Iranian troops have been shelling the region
for at least 12 days in pursuit of Kurdish rebels, according to Lt. Saleh Ahmed of the Kurdish security forces. He said Iranian artillery killed a 14-year-old girl and wounded three villagers on May 30. Iranian troops with artillery and tanks
crossed the Iraqi border last Thursday and began building an outpost and a road leading back into the Iranian side of the border, he said. The area around the mountainous border is disputed territory between the two countries.

CASH Turkey calls on Israel to accept probe into raid FOR GOLD
ISTANBUL (AP) – Turkey’s leader on Monday said Israel’s raid on a Gazabound aid flotilla that killed nine pro-Palestinian activists was a violation of international law and human values, and he urged Israel to accept an international probe into the raid. Israel has sought to portray the slain activists – eight Turks and a 19-year-old male who held dual Turkish-U.S. citizenship – as terrorists, saying they prepared for the fight before boarding the flotilla. Israel has insisted its troops acted in self defense after being attacked by some of the activists on board. “If there is hatred, it is Israel’s hatred. If there is terror, it is Israel’s state
terrorism,” Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan said at a news conference with Syrian Erdogan President Bashar Assad. The Israeli military on Monday released the names of five of the activists it said had long ties to terror organizations.

three soldiers have been arrested on suspicion of having stolen personal belongings of a crash victim. An unnamed source told the Itar-Tass news agency that the three conscripts were attached to the airport in the Russian city of Smolensk, where the plane was supposed to land.

KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) – Ten NATO service members, seven of them American, were killed in separate attacks Monday on the deadliest day of the year for foreign forces in Afghanistan. A U.S. civilian contractor who trains Afghan police also died in a suicide attack. The bloodshed comes as insurgents step up bombings and other attacks ahead of a major NATO operation in the Taliban stronghold of Kandahar that Washington hopes will turn the tide of the war. Half the NATO deaths – five Americans – occurred in a single blast in eastern Afghanistan, U.S. spokesman Col. Wayne Shanks said without giving further details. It was a grim reminder that the insurgents can strike throughout the country – not simply in the south, which has become the main focus of the U.S. campaign. Two other U.S. service members were killed in separate attacks in the south – one in a bombing and the other by small arms fire. NATO said three other service members were killed in attacks in the east and south but gave no further details.

LIMA, Peru (AP) – U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton opened a four-nation tour of Latin America and the Caribbean Monday hoping to boost cooperation on security matters and build consensus on contentious Clinton issues like U.S. immigration laws and the fallout over last year’s coup in Honduras. In discussions taking place against the backdrop of broader international developments, Clinton will also be seeking regional support for efforts at the United Nations to slap new sanctions on Iran over its suspect nuclear program, hold North Korea responsible for the sinking of a South Korean warship and deal with the deteriorating situation in the Gaza Strip. After meeting Peruvian President Alan Garcia on Monday, Clinton said Iran and North Korea must be made to understand that “their actions pose a threat to the peace and stability of the world community.”

Tornado survivors finding hope
Person missing after Texas gas explosion
MILLBURY, Ohio (AP) – Nathaniel Lender scampered in flip-flops across a plywood floor that was the only part of his house not ripped away by a tornado. “Have you seen my trampoline?� he asked his mom after spotting a shredded hockey net covered by pieces of splintered wood. “It’s over there,� she answered, pointing toward a clump of debris wrapped around a backyard fence post. Up and down their street in the northwest Ohio village of Millbury, homeowners, friends and strangers sifted through lawns and fields Monday, looking for little reminders of what life was like before a tornado flattened their homes. What they found gave them a bit of hope: a waterlogged Bible, a Little League baseball trophy, an elementary school yearbook. Five people died in the tornado that was Ohio’s strongest in eight years, part of a line of storms that ripped through the Midwest over the weekend, destroying dozens of homes and an emergency services building in northwest Ohio.

Well cap captures more oil Hopeful report offset by warning that slick could affect Gulf for years NEW ORLEANS (AP) – The cap on the blown-out well in the Gulf is capturing a half-million gallons a day, or anywhere from one-third to three-quarters of the oil spewing from the bottom of the sea, officials said Monday. But the hopeful report was offset by a warning that the farflung slick has broken up into hundreds and even thousands of patches of oil that may inflict damage that could persist for years.

US: Yemini officials hold 12 Americans WASHINGTON (AP) – Yemeni authorities have 12 Americans in custody, and the arrests may be linked to a joint U.S.Yemeni anti-terror campaign, a State Department spokesman said Monday. The spokesman, P.J. Crowley, declined to provide details about the case, except to say the State Department is aware of the arrests and is seeking more information about the individuals being held. The revelations come as the U.S. government continues to encourage Yemen to move against al-Qaidalinked militants in the country who officials fear may be involved in plots to attack America or other Western interests. U.S. officials worry that Yemen is becoming the next significant terrorist staging ground and say insurgents are training in camps in Yemen’s vast undergoverned spaces.

The amount of oil captured is being slowly ramped up as more vents on the cap are closed. Crews are moving carefully to avoid a dangerous pressure buildup and to prevent the formation of the icy crystals that thwarted a previous effort.

CLEBURNE, Texas (AP) – Two emergency management officials say one person remains missing after a natural gas line exploded southwest of Dallas. Officials from Johnson and Hood counties say there are no known fatalities from the blast in Cleburne.

Cleburne City Manager Chester Nolen initially told The Associated Press that at least three people were dead. But after fire officials and the gas line operator extinguished the fire, Nolen said they were unsure if anyone was killed. The fire spewed towering flames into the air for about two hours before valves shut off the gas supply.

Gifted student program may expand BY JORDAN HOWSE ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
GUILFORD COUNTY – Guilford County Schools is proposing a new plan to improve current services and introduce new opportunities for academically gifted students. School officials drafted an Academically or Intellectually Gifted Plan because the state required an update for AG students and the school system wants its Strategic Plan to offer AG students more opportunities to excel. A plan officially will be
implemented for the 2010-11 academic year and last for three years. The Guilford County Board of Education will consider the plan during a 6 p.m. Thursday meeting at the district administrative headquarters in Greensboro. The district must submit a plan to the N.C. Department of Public Instruction by July 15. The revised plan includes reinforcing the schools that deliver AG services consistently, making AG screening and identification easier for parents to understand,
and increasing the participation of underrepresented students in the program. Also, the plan will add a K2 Talent Development pilot program at 10 schools that have low AG numbers. The district plans to give teachers professional development training to help identify AG students and differentiate instruction. “Our plan also calls for increasing the number of teachers with AG certification in the district so AG students are continually challenged both in the general class-
room and during enrichment activities,” said Lee Ann Segalla, executive director of advanced learning. “(Advanced Learning Department) will continue to aid teachers with tuition costs to receive an AIG certificate from High Point University, and we also offer courses for classroom teachers to better serve their AG students,” Segalla said. Currently, more than 14,000 students in Guilford County Schools receive services through the Advanced Learning program. Students can be
identified as academically gifted as early as third grade and continue in the program through high school. Parents were involved in the planning process. The Advanced Learning Department, which will become the Academically Gifted Department in the fall, met with elementary teachers and principals, worked with a Strategic Plan project team and conducted an online survey to gather input from parents and the community. editor@hpe.com | 888-3537
Boutique opens in Uptowne area BY PAM HAYNES ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
AT A GLANCE
–
HIGH POINT – Economic conditions didn’t keep Susanne Talcott from accomplishing her dream of opening a clothing boutique in High Point. In fact, it may have pushed her to open Wicked Purple Boutique, located at 120 W. Lexington Ave., Suite 102, sooner than planned. As a dental hygienist, Talcott said she traveled from her Pleasant Garden home to work a temporary job at a dentist’s office in Cary because the job market was so competitive. Eventually, she decided the commute was too much and focused her energy on opening the small business. “I had trouble finding anything other than temporary jobs,” Talcott said. “If I would have been busy in dental hygiene, I probably would have put this on the back burner. But it is something I’ve always wanted to do.” The boutique opened midMay with an inventory of women’s clothing, hats, footwear and jewelry selected by Talcott. The boutique is located in the area that houses a Verena apparel store and Char Grill Restaurant. The complex has lost tenants in recent years, including Lights and Lather and children’s boutique Doodlebug’s, but Talcott, who spotted the location while working a temporary job in High Point, said she hopes to fill a niche in the area. “When I was working in High Point, I had some free time and
The Wicked Purple Boutique has opened at 120 W. Lexington Ave. in Suite 102. Store hours are 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Tuesday through Friday and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday. The store can be reached at 887-0083.
was looking for a place like this to go after work,” she said. “A co-worker said they didn’t think the city had anything like this.” The name of the store wasn’t meant to be taken the wrong way either, she said. “We use the slang term of ‘wicked’ which pretty much means ‘cool’ or ‘hard to describe,’” she said. “We have a lot of fun, different things here. I don’t get a lot of the same shirts, for example. High Point is a small area. You don’t want to see people walking around in the same thing.” The store sells an exclusive line of jewelry by a North Carolina artist, decorative cowgirl boots made in Turkey and other items from vendors in Texas, California and more. While the term “boutique” also may intimidate some, Talcott said the majority of the store’s items are priced between $12 and $100. “We do have some upper end items we’ll be bringing it, but we also have something for everyone,” she said. phaynes@hpe.com | 888-3617
GUILFORD COUNTY – For Commissioner John Parks, the compromise that formed the 2011 county budget last week resulted in something he wanted to see – more support for libraries and the arts. Throughout the budgetmaking process, commissioners had many things to consider. “It’s always a compromise,” said Parks, a High Point Democrat. “We look at the needs and the public input. And what I got from the input was that people wanted no property tax increase.” Parks was one of three commissioners attending a meeting last month wearing a badge reading “Arts Create Jobs.” Commissioners heard from arts and library supporters several times in the last two months. “A lot of people spoke out to us about their needs,” Parks said.
The new budget restores money to arts and libraries with no increase in the property tax rate. The revised $570 million budget added $1.1 million to County Manager Brenda Jones-Fox’s original proposal. The revised budget may have saved the Gibsonville library. Gibsonville officials had said the county’s proposed $55,000 cut threatened closure. The Greensboro library got an additional $200,000 for a total donation of $1.3 million. Among budget highlights: Arts and community group funding: • North Carolina Shakespeare Festival, $20,000 down from the current $30,000, but up from the proposed $10,000. • The United Arts Council of High Point, $50,000, down from $75,000, but up from the proposed $25,000. • Carl Chavis YMCA $25,000, up from the proposed $16,667.
Edna AdamsFulton, a retention advisor for the Center of Academic Excellence (College of Engineering) at North Carolina A&T State University, was selected to serve on the 2010-11 advisory board for the Symposium on the Recruitment and Retention of Students of Color. The board consists of 11 members and is charged with the responsibility of reviewing proposals, speaker selection and developing content and programming for the symposium.

• The Piedmont Triad Film Commission $50,000. The proposed amount was $33,333. Economic Development: • Downtown High Point will get $40,000, up from the proposed $26,000 and High Point Economic Development will get $75,000 instead of the proposed $50,000. • The High Point Market Authority also will get $75,000, up from the proposed $50,000. • Piedmont Triad Partnership, $44,143. With county revenues in 2011 projected to drop $8.1 million, including an $891,000 decline in property tax revenue, Parks expects another tough year. “I expect it to be more difficult next year,” he said. “We moved things around this year and some departments took cuts. There were not many job losses, and we hope we do not have any more next year.”
2011 BUDGET

Manager’s proposal: County Manager Brenda Jones-Fox originally proposed a $568.9 million budget, $17.2 million less than the current budget with cuts of $435,000 from arts and community groups and the elimination of $55,000 for the Gibsonville town library. Balance: The revised budget spends $570 million in general fund revenues. Commissioners took $701,212 earmarked for the contingency fund, $300,000 for economic development incentives, $86,000 from fleet operations and $40,000 from information services.

Youngest FUNERAL of Isley Sechrest Brothers dies at 56
Funeral & Cremation Service Since 1897
CHICAGO (AP) – Marvin Isley, the bass player who helped give R&B powerhouse the Isley Brothers their distinctive sound, has died at a Chicago hospital. He was 56. Isley died Sunday morning at an inpatient hospice at Weiss Memorial Hospital, according to hospital spokeswoman Catherine Gianaro. She could not confirm a cause of death. Isley stopped performing in 1996 after suffering complications from diabetes that included a stroke, high blood pressure, the loss of both legs and use of his left hand. He joined his brothers’ band in 1973. By that time, the Isley Brothers had established themselves with hits like 1959’s “Shout,” which sold more than 1 million records. Isley splintered off to form Isley-Jasper-Isley in the 1980s and returned to the Isley Brothers in the 1990s. The group was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1992, and their career has spanned six decades. At one point there were five Isley brothers in the group, including Marvin. Today, only Ronald Isley is touring full time after a threeyear stint in federal prison for tax evasion. The group’s hits included “Twist and Shout,” later recorded by The Beatles, “Love The One You’re With,” and the Grammy-winning 1969 smash, “It’s Your Thing.”
Radio pioneer Himan Brown dies NEW YORK (AP) – Himan Brown, who created dramas that used sound effects like a creaking door and a steam engine to enthrall listeners during the golden age of radio, has died. He was 99. Brown died in his Manhattan apartment, his family said Monday. The creative force behind radio classics including “Inner Sanctum Mysteries” and “Grand Central Station,” Brown grasped “how sounds would trigger the imagination,” said Ron Simon, curator of television and radio at the Paley Center for Media. “Inner Sanctum Mysteries,” for example, used the sound of a creaking door as its signature opening and ended with the ominous signoff, “pleasant dreams.” “Grand Central Station”
included the sound of a steam engine. “He was one of radio’s great storytellers,” Simon said. Among Brown’s other creations were “The Adventures of the Thin Man” and “Dick Tracy.” He worked with stars like Orson Welles and Boris Karloff. Brown, who died Friday, “always believed in the drama of the mind,” said his daughter, Hilda Brown. He felt people could use their own imagination to create mental pictures to go along with what they were hearing on the radio. The son of Russian immigrants, Brown was raised in Brooklyn. He graduated from law school, but decided to follow his creative passions instead, his daughter said.
Author David Markson dies NEW YORK (AP) — David Markson, a revered postmodern author who rummaged relentlessly and humorously through art, history and reality itself in such novels as “Wittgenstein’s Mistress,” and wrote crime fiction, poetry and a spoof of Westerns made into the Frank Sinatra film “Dirty Dingus Magee,” has died at age 82. Markson’s two children found him on June 4 in his bed in his Greenwich Village apartment, the author’s literary agent and former wife Elaine Markson said Monday. She did not know the cause of death or when he died, but
said Markson had been in failing health. Little known to the general public, Markson was idolized by a core of fans that included Ann Beattie and David Foster Wallace. He was celebrated for his insights and for how he expressed them, often in paragraphs lasting just a sentence or two. “Wittgenstein’s Mistress,” his most acclaimed work, and other novels were interior monologues on the state of the world and the state of the author’s mind. “Nonlinear. Discontinuous. Collage-like” was how he summed up his
approach, in the novel “Reader’s Block.” A native of Albany, N.Y., raised by a newspaper editor (his father) and school teacher (his mother), Markson was an undergraduate at Union College, then received a master’s in 1952 from Columbia University. His thesis on Malcolm Lowry’s “Under the Volcano” led to a long friendship with the author. Markson also came to know Dylan Thomas (a fellow patron at New York’s famous Lion’s Head Tavern) and Jack Kerouac, allegedly so drunk when Markson asked for an autograph that he jammed his pen right through the paper.

NC Capitol evacuated after powder found RALEIGH (AP) – White powder was discovered in an envelope at North Carolina’s old Capitol building, leading to an evacuation. Gov. Beverly Perdue spokeswoman Chrissy Pearson said an administrative assistant to Chief of Staff Britt Cobb opened the envelope shortly before 3 p.m. Monday.
Police and Perdue’s staff asked visitors to leave the 170-year-old building, which includes offices for Perdue and the old House and Senate chambers. A hazardous materials team arrived to investigate the envelope. Two workers who handled the letter also were being checked out.
Perdue was in the old House chamber before the envelope problem became public, signing legislation requiring insurance companies to cover the cost of hearing aids for children. Pearson said she knew of no threats associated with the envelope.

D
ear Abby: “Anonymous in Washington State” (March 25) can’t stand her 10-year-old daughter but adores her two sons. I have worked for more than 20 years for a nonprofit organization whose mission is to improve parenting and prevent child abuse. “Anonymous” can access more information from the Washington State Department of Social and Health Services online (www.dshs. wa.gov) or via telephone at (360) 902-8400 to find out about free or low-cost mental health/counseling services in her area. Parent Trust for Washington Children may be able to provide information on support groups and other services. The phone number is (206) 233-0156. Finally, there is Childhelp USA ((800) 422-4453) if she wants to speak to a counselor who can direct her to local services. – Suzanna in Milwaukee Dear Suzanna: Thank you for sharing some valuable resources. That letter struck a nerve with many readers who reached out to offer help as well as share similar experiences. Read on: Dear Abby: As a teacher, I would occasionally have a student I didn’t like. I gave myself the “Ten Rule.” I’d make 10 positive comments about the student before I allowed myself to make a negative one. The process
worked miracles. I don’t know if I changed because I made the effort to ADVICE find good qualities, or Dear if the child Abby changed ■■■ because of the positive input. Before long, I found myself liking and enjoying that student as much as I did the others. – Nancy in Broussard, La. Dear Abby: I suffered physical and verbal abuse from my mother, who told me often I was her “ugly” child. The day I checked out of the hospital for depression she told me she had never bonded with me as an infant and that I annoyed her. I suffered from low self-esteem for as far back as I can remember. I’m almost 40 now, and after thousands of hours of therapy and hard work, I choose to believe that I am worthy and loving. I’m in a healthy marriage and have a 2-year-old daughter. The thought of repeating the pattern of abuse makes me ill. I hope “Anonymous” will do whatever she can to change her attitude toward her daughter. – J.H., Long Beach, Calif. Dear Abby: Children mimic what they see. “Anonymous” has two sons who are watching
and learning how to treat people, especially women. – Reader in Miles City, Mont. Dear Abby: My mother was physically and mentally abusive to me while she doted on my three brothers. I used to pray for someone to rescue me. I vowed never to have children because I feared there was a defect my mother had passed on to me, and I never wanted anyone to feel the way she made me feel. Ironically, my three brothers never even call my mother, and after tons of therapy, I am now her loving caregiver. – Been There in California Dear Abby: I am 52 and my heart still aches when I think of how unloved I felt as an awkward 10-year-old. My mother was repulsed by me – an overweight, bucktoothed, loud and unladylike girl. After I left home I went on to become a highly successful, beautiful and engaging woman, despite the flawed vision of myself that had been created by my self-absorbed and verbally abusive mother. Little girls grow up, and what this mother ruins today may haunt her tomorrow. – Grown Up in New England DEAR ABBY is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.

tient was able to force the window open further than it was designed to open, damaging the window in the process,” the hospital statement said. The staff member tried to stop Hronchak but was unable to do so, the statement said. He landed near the front entrance, Barnes said. The hospital’s driveway and front entrance were temporarily closed and visitors were rerouted, according to the statement.
The hospital chaplain and patient representatives were on hand for the people who saw the incident, the statement said. “Every safety precaution was taken to prevent such an occurrence,” the statement said. “Southeastern’s facilities meet all codes as mandated by state and federal guidelines,” the statement said. The hospital is doing an internal investigation, the statement said.

Security firm formerly known as Blackwater seeks new owner RALEIGH (AP) – The security firm formerly known as Blackwater is looking for new ownership, announcing Monday it is pursuing a sale of the company that became renowned and reviled for its involvement with the U.S. government in Iraq and elsewhere. The Moyock-based company now called Xe Services announced its decision in a statement that gave few details. “Xe’s new management team has made significant changes and improvements to the company over the last 15 months, which have enabled the company to better serve the U.S. government and other customers, and will deliver additional value to a purchaser,” the statement said. Owner and founder Erik Prince said selling the company is a difficult deci-
sion, but constant criticsm of Xe helped him make up his mind. “Performance doesn’t matter in Washington, just politics,” Prince said in a further statement. The private company became famous as Blackwater, which provided guards and services to the U.S. government in Iraq, Afghanistan and elsewhere. It became one of the most respected defense contractors in the world, but also attracted sharp criticism over its role in those missions. It has been trying to rehabilitate its image since a 2007 shooting in Baghdad that killed 17 people, outraged the Iraqi government and led to federal charges against several Blackwater guards. The accusations later were thrown out of court after a judge found prosecutors mishandled evidence.

any readers may have experienced or had a family member experience physical therapy. But do you really know what we are about? People may think our role lies only in managing conditions after the fact: after the stroke, after the total knee replacement, after the rotator cuff repair. These areas are certainly common to physical therapy, but our role extends far beyond those boundaries. Physical therapists do have roles in rehabilitation, but we also have roles in prevention and wellness. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like for you to think of physical therapists as the experts in restoring and improving motion in your lives. Physical therapy is all about motion and movement. After all, it is necessary in daily life; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something you take for granted until you lose it, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the essential ingredient to aging successfully and maintaining a healthy and active life. Physical therapists have specialized education to help people restore motion. This idea of motion may sound fairly simple, but think about being immobilized in a cast following a fracture or the period of loss movement after a rolled ankle. Perhaps many can even recall the period of restricted movement and loss from freedom of performing normal activities following a pulled back. These are all incidents that can be significantly impacted by physical therapy. Evidence seems to support the notion that when there is less movement or decreased joint motion, it contributes to problems at surrounding joints. For example, an ankle sprain not treated properly can result in knee or even hip pain. Our profession is the one most capable for adequately managing such conditions. So think physical therapy first. You should know what physical therapists can do for you, including: â&#x20AC;˘ Helping improve mobility and quality of life to perform daily activities; â&#x20AC;˘ Providing an alternative, in many cases, to painful and expensive surgery; â&#x20AC;˘ Managing or eliminating pain, reducing the need for long-term use of prescription medication and its side effects; â&#x20AC;˘ Teaching to prevent and manage a condition to achieve long-term health benefits.

Treating unsightly leg veins
D
ear Dr. Donohue: I need information about chronic venous insufficiency. I understand that the blood goes down my legs but my veins don’t carry it back to my heart. This leaves very unsightly legs. I was given compression hose to wear. I tried two different kinds. They both made my legs worse. Can anything be done for this situation? – J.C.
BLONDIE
All veins have valves in them. When blood passes through the veins, their valves close so that the blood keeps moving onward to the heart. Leg veins, in particular, have a tough job getting blood out of the legs and back to the heart. They have to overcome gravity. Their valves make this feat possible. With age, leg veins often are stretched out of shape, and their valves are no longer competent. Blood moves back to the heart with greater difficulty, and it pools in those leg veins. They’re stretched even more. This is chronic venous insufficiency, a more precise name for varicose veins. Compression hose put the squeeze on leg veins and keep blood moving upward and out of the legs. You need compression hose that are specifically tailored for your legs. Your doctor can write you a prescription for them. Compression isn’t the only treatment. When walking, your leg muscles contract, and the contractions keep blood moving onward and

upward. You ought to aim for 30 minutes of walking daily. When sitting for any length HEALTH of time, get up Dr. Paul and walk Donohue around; ■■■ sitting also favors blood pooling in the leg veins. Elevate your legs. They have to be on a plane higher than your heart. You can achieve that only by lying down and propping up your legs with pillows. Thirty minutes of leg elevation, twice a day, will keep your vein situation from worsening. Have you talked to any doctor about varicose vein treatments? There are many ways to fix them. You’d be astonished at how easily they are taken care of these days. Dear Dr. Donohue: I read where jaw pain is a sign of a heart attack. Some months ago I had jaw pain, and the pain was intense. I took an aspirin and rested. Later I saw my doctor, who had me take a stress test. It showed I had some heart damage. Chest pain and left-arm pain make sense, but not jaw pain. Why does the jaw hurt? – J.R. The jaw, the neck, the shoulders and the arms (both left and right) share nerves that have a common origin with nerves of the heart.
That’s why sometimes heart pain is felt in those locations. Most people feel heart attack pain as a pressing sensation in the lower middle or left side of the chest. The heart attack booklet goes into details on heart attack symptoms and how heart attacks are treated. Dear Dr. Donohue: I am 82 and have had essential tremor for many years. I took Inderal for it. My new doctor took me off Inderal because my pulse was around 50. He says my tremor isn’t life-threatening, but the slow pulse is. I need a second opinion. My shaking is out of control. – W.F. For readers, essential tremor is a common tremor, one that kicks in when a person moves his hands and arms, as in trying to get a spoonful of soup to the mouth. It can be disabling, and always is embarrassing. Ask your doctor about trying a reduced dose of Inderal, one that doesn’t slow your heart so much but does control your tremor. Or – and this might be a better way – try Mysoline (primidone). It’s quite effective for steadying essential tremor without slowing the heart. DR. DONOHUE regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but he will incorporate them in his column whenever possible. Readers may write him or request an order form of available health newsletters at P.O. Box 536475, Orlando, FL 32853-6475

Old meets very old Community Day at Old Salem will take 1950s flavor BY JIMMY TOMLIN ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
W
INSTON-SALEM – Old Salem’s roots in the Triad may date back to the 1750s, but this weekend the living history museum will have a distinctly 1950s flavor. An Elvis tribute artist, hula hoop contests and a screening of the 1955 classic movie “Rebel Without A Cause” are among the activities on tap Saturday when Old Salem Museums & Gardens
’We feel like this is a really great way for Old Salem to say thank you to the community for 60 years of support.’ Lauren Werner Old Salem director of marketing celebrates its 60th anniversary with a Community Day in the historic district. All activities will be free of charge, and visitors will have free access to all of Old Salem’s museums and gardens throughout the day. “We feel like this is a really great way for Old Salem to say thank you to the community for 60 years of support,” says Lauren Werner, director of marketing.
“We’re having a 1950s theme because Old Salem Inc. – which is now Old Salem Museums & Gardens – was founded in 1950.” Beginning at 2 p.m., visitors will receive free samples of what bakers at the historic Winkler Bakery hope will be the world’s largest sugar cake. According to staff at the bakery, the 18-by-61⁄2foot cake will be the equivalent of 351 pieces of sugar cake, which normally sells at the bakery in 6-by-8-inch rectangles for $5.50 apiece. The cake will be available at the Visitor Center. “We’re attempting to get the cake in the ‘Guinness Book of World Records,’” Werner says. The 1950s theme will be played up with the following activities: • A display of 1950s-era cars, provided by the Antique Auto Club of America. Visitors can vote for their favorite car. • An appearance by Elvis Presley tribute artist Danny Crouse of Kernersville. • Hula hoop contests every hour on the hour. • The outdoor screening of “Rebel Without A Cause” at the Tavern Meadow. The movie will begin at dusk, and visitors should bring blankets and/or lawn chairs. Other activities will include: • Historic games and free balloons for children. • Hot dogs, ice cream and soda being sold by Mayberry’s. • Book-signings by Arcadia Publishing authors. • Fire drills and Salem Militia
The Randolph Hospital Community Health Foundation recently announced it will not be issuing 2011 grant applications until the fall due to a decision by the board of directors to re-evaluate the grant distribution cycle as well as identify a more specific area of focus for grant applications. Traditionally, the Randolph Hospital Community Health Foundation considers grant applications from community organizations whose programs share the following health and wellness goals, with particular emphasis on promotion of good health, health education, disease and injury prevention as well as opportunities for improved access to health service for those who are underserved. In past years grant applications were issued in early spring, with a formal announcement made in November. “We recognized that after 15 years of existence and the state of the current economy, we needed to review how we distributed our grant dollars and how we can narrow our focus to make those funds the most effective for community organizations,” said April Thornton, director of public relations and development. While the board has not finalized the key focus areas and timeline, all past and current grant recipients will be notified regarding the most recent changes. In addition, an announcement will be posted on the foundation’s Web site.

Tuesday, June 8, 2010 CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Kanye West, 33; Keenen Ivory Wayans, 52; Boz Scaggs, 66; Joan Rivers, 77 HAPPY BIRTHDAY: Getting involved in causes you believe in will lead to a change in lifestyle and an awakening regarding life and happiness. You are undergoing changes that will enable you to revisit past mistakes and turn any wrongs into rights. The key is understanding and owning up to whatever has come and gone, so you can move forward with a clean slate and an open mind. The future is simple once you’ve cleared a pathway. Your numbers are 2, 11, 17, 22, 30, 33, 42 ARIES (March 21-April 19): Set the record straight if you haven’t been specific about the way you feel. A personal problem will develop due to a misunderstanding. Now is not the time to overreact or overindulge. ★★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Dealing with personal issues will be emotional but gratifying. It will be a relief to have your position out in the open. You can expect someone to be jealous of you or what you are doing. ★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Putting money, time and energy into what you already own or have to sell will lead to an opportunity. Be forceful when trying to find out information that can help you with legal matters or a claim you need to make. ★★★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): Possessiveness in love will work against you. Instead, take on a positive attitude and you will find options that fit into your plans. Avoid making a promise that you don’t really want to honor. ★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Prepare to take advantage of every opportunity that comes your way. Getting involved in activities or events that you would usually walk away from will spark your imagination and help you make a decision. ★★★★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Put a little thought into how you can raise the value of your home or downsize to meet your financial situation. Money can be obtained by collecting old debts or through gifts, winnings or a new contract you are competing for. ★★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Give and take should be your answer to a problem you face at work. You can establish good relationships both professionally and personally if you compromise. A fast move on your part will produce a financial increase. ★★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): It will be difficult to keep things mellow if you engage in talks with a partner who doesn’t always agree with you. Honesty will be important if you don’t want to experience repercussions or an alteration to your current mode of living. Uncertainty will be your weakness. ★★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Take hold of whatever situation you face and make your point clear and your ideas heard. You may be teetering in your personal life but, before you decide to move in one direction or another, strategize carefully. ★★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): A chance to make money on property or another asset is likely if you act fast when you see an opportunity arise. You’ll be surprised how well things will go if you refuse to let a friend or relative interfere in your business. ★★★★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Complete honesty is a must if you want to get your plans off the ground and reach your goals. Don’t count on others being upfront when it comes to money matters. Don’t let your emotions lead you down a path of no return. ★★★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Don’t make the same promise to too many people you meet. A partnership can be a solution to a business venture. Someone with a good accounting background can take over responsibilities you don’t have time for. ★★★

Cy the Cynic says there are two kinds of people: those who finish what they start ... and so on. Today’s declarer ruffed the third heart and took the A-K of trumps. When West discarded, South thought he might as well finish what he’d started: He led the queen and a low trump, hoping East had no more hearts. But East produced a heart for down one. “If I start the clubs instead of leading a fourth trump,” South observed, “East ruffs the third club and leads a diamond, and I go down two.”
LAST TRUMP South should start the trumps by taking the K-Q. If both defenders followed, South could draw the last trump and play a low club from both hands to protect against a 4-1 break. When trumps break 41, South starts the clubs. East ruffs the third club and leads a diamond, but South takes the ace and draws the last trump with the ace. He then cashes two more clubs for diamond discards. Yes, East could always prevail if he overtook the second heart (!) and led a diamond.
DAILY QUESTION You hold: S K Q 7 3 2 H 7 3 D A Q 4 C Q 6 4. Your partner opens one club, you respond one spade and he raises to three spades. The opponents pass. What do you say?

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.

Adams takes Ledford post W
hy on Earth was an award-winning baseball coach-turned assistant principal back at Ledford High School on Monday? To accept the Panthers’ vacant position of football head coach, of course. Chris Adams stepped into the Ledford cafeteria Monday afternoon SPORTS before a crowd of about 75 footSteve ball players to be Hanf introduced as the ■■■ Panthers’ new coach. He was greeted by some with wide-eyed wonder – just two years ago, Adams resigned as head coach of the highly successful Ledford baseball program to become an assistant principal at Central Davidson High School. The shirt and tie just didn’t quite fit, though, prompting Adams to jump at the chance to take over the Panthers’ football team. “The bottom line is, I want to coach,” Adams said. “I have a passion for coaching. I’ve done it my whole life. I took a gamble getting out to try something different and I had a great experience doing that, but it doesn’t quite do for me what coaching does.” The hiring ended a marathon ordeal and put a coach in place just in time for summer workouts. Chuck Henderson announced in early February that he was leaving Ledford for the head coaching position at Asheboro, but school officials were handcuffed in the coaching search by a hiring freeze. Only last week could candidates from outside the district be discussed. Twelve candidates in all were interviewed, said Principal Bill Butts, and the waiting game finally ended with the selection of the 35-year-old coach. “The kids have been very patient with this process,” Butts said. “We haven’t been able to tell them much, but they deserved good news and I think today they got good news.” Adams introduced himself to
TRINITY – School officials declined comment Monday in regards to long-time coach Renee Hayes’ dismissal as head coach of the Trinity varsity girls basketball team. Hayes said Principal Denise Lackey informed her in late April that she would not be asked back for a fifth season leading the Bulldogs. In the following weeks, Hayes said she was congratulated on her “retirement” by a number of people in the Trinity community, which led Hayes to release a statement Sunday to several media outlets explaining that she did not leave willingly. When reached Monday morning at the high school, Lackey was asked about Hayes’ dismissal. She replied, “I have no comment. Thank you,” before hanging up.

Chris Adams talks to a group of Ledford football players after becoming their head coach Monday. Adams, who gave up coaching baseball at Ledford two years ago to take an administrative position at Central Davidson, replaces Chuck Henderson. the gathered players and promised that Ledford would be the most physical team anyone saw on the schedule. “I’m ready to take it to another level,” Adams said. The Panthers finished 6-6 overall last season and tied for second in the Mid-Piedmont 3A Conference. Adams said he hopes the staff – which includes several of his old friends – remains the same. The assistant coaches have been leading the offseason workouts to this point. Adams said he’ll begin meeting with all the coaches immediately. For all of Adams’ success on the diamond, his football background runs deep. The 1993 High Point Central graduate was still working toward his degree at High Point U. when he started helping Bison football coach Gary Whitman. Adams went on
to spend two years under Todd Shuping at Central Davidson before arriving at Ledford in 1999. With the Panthers, Adams assisted Dickie Cline, Gil Maxwell, Rick Larrick and Henderson. “People that have known me a long time know that deep down I’ve always wanted to be a head football coach. During my baseball tenure, I got 100 percent committed to that and gave that everything I had,” Adams said. “I’ve always had a passion for football. I love the game, everything that goes along with it: the Xs and Os, the planning, the organization, the staff. I love working with all those things.” And no matter how many sporting events Adams attended the past two years, he couldn’t shake the butterflies he felt
– even as a spectator. Adams thanked Central administrators Emily Lipe and Jonathan Hayes along with Davidson County Schools officials for allowing him to make the unorthodox move from administrator to football coach/physcial education teacher. “Somebody going from an administrator back to a head football job is a big step, a big decision,” Panthers athletic director Donald Palmer said. “As you can tell from his speech, he’s very hungry to get back in it.” So much so, it’s almost as though he never left. “What better place to coach than here with this community, this coaching staff and these kids,” Adams said. “You couldn’t ask for a better situation.”

Athletic director Doug Tuggle also declined comment Monday. For her part, Hayes emphasized that she was not retiring from coaching or teaching. Now 53, Hayes said Monday “I hope I’ve got another good six years in me.” She plans to continue teaching language arts and social studies at Archdale-Trinity Middle School, where she’s worked for 28 of the 30 years she’s been in education. Hayes did not know if she would coach again, but added that she enjoyed the years she dedicated to the sport. “You don’t do something for 17 years without having lots of folks doing stuff to help,” Hayes said of the relationships built over the years. “If the right opportunity came along I’d be glad to consider that. But I’m very happy in my teaching situation and would not under any
circumstances give that up.” Trinity replaced Hayes with Shannon Edwards, a standout football player at West Charlotte High School who played one year for North Carolina A&T before a back injury forced him to stop competing. The 33-year-old Edwards coached football at Dudley and Garinger high schools and worked with the junior varsity boys basketball team at Dudley.He spent the past four years working in the Randolph County Schools’ central office, then started at Trinity this school year. Edwards serves as Trinity’s career development coordinator, interacting with students on college options, different careers to pursue, and finding jobs in the community. What led him to take the girls basketball job? “There was a need here at Trin-
ity and I said I would help out in any way possible,” Edwards said Monday. “I have a background in playing basketball. I said, ‘I’ll give it a shot.’ I’ve got the best coach in the state – in my opinion – in Coach Kelly, so I’m going to lean on him heavily.” In addition to the wisdom gleaned from boys coach Tim Kelly and Edwards’ assistants Harry Loeffler and Jim Rogers, he’ll also rely on Hayes. “She educated me. She was awesome, answered all my questions, my concerns, my doubts. I’m going to lean on her heavily if she allows me to,” Edwards said of Hayes helping with the transition. “She’s a state champion, a winner – big shoes to fill. Humongous shoes to fill. I’m just excited and ready to see what we can do.” shanf@hpe.com | 888-3526

CHICAGO CUBS PITTSBURGH
Trinity officials mum on coaching change BY STEVE HANF ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER
TOP SCORES
tephen Strasburg figures to be the biggest thing to hit our Nation’s Capitol since the Washington Monument. Now we’ll start finding out if the kid can live up to the hype. Strasburg makes his big-league debut tonight when the Nationals play host to the Pittsburgh Pirates. He reaches the majors after delivering a clinic to minor-league batters. In 11 minorleague starts, Strasburg posted a combined 7-
2 record (4-1 with Triple-A Syracuse, 3-1 with Double-A Harrisburg) and a 1.30 ERA. His final minor-league tuneup was a smash, as he allowed no runs and three hits with five strikeouts and a walk in the Chiefs 7-1 rout of the Buffalo Bisons on Thursday. A cynic may argue that facing the Pittsburgh Pirates barely qualifies as a big-league challenge. Pittsburgh ranks at or near the bottom of many National League offensive categories and enters the game floundering
near the basement in the National League Central. But I guarantee you a full house will greet the Pirates when they step to the plate to face the 21-year-old fireballer. Strasburg played to sellout crowds at most of his minor-league stops. I can’t wait to see what Strasburg does at the big-league level. It could make for a sizzling summer.

Larry Brown is putting potential draft picks through workouts. The general manager is chatting with Brown regularly to discuss shaping the roster for next season. Everyone is acting as if Brown will be back for a third season with the Charlotte Bobcats. The Hall of Fame coach just won’t say it definitively and end all the speculation. Three days after declining to speak to reporters, Brown chose his words carefully after Monday’s pre-draft workout. Has he decided on whether he’s returning? “I’m here coaching,” Brown replied. “Obviously, I’m under contract and doing my job.” So it’s settled that he’s coming back? “I’m here. If I wasn’t here, it’d be another thing,” answered Brown. Brown then backed away from the circle of reporters and ended the interview. It was another bizarre twist in a twomonth stretch of uncertainty surrounding the Michael Jordanowned Bobcats and the welltraveled Brown, in his 13th pro or college head coaching job.

There comes a point when it’s time for the family to step back, and Tom Logano’s constant presence became a topic of gossip early in last year’s rookie season. It was ratcheted up after the October incident with Biffle, and is front and center again after Sunday. Has Tom Logano crossed the line? Absolutely. His actions are well-intentioned, albeit inappropriate, responses for a proud and supportive father. However, Tom Logano has to figure out his role in his son’s career. He got him all the way to the top at a very young age, and he should entrust both the leadership at JGR and crew chief Greg Zippadelli to manage it from here.
Bruce set to retire as a Ram
Wilson keeps HiToms on skids
BY JASON QUEEN SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE
THOMASVILLE – The HiToms showed they are still a work in progress Monday night. Wilson showed it’s pretty complete. The Tobs homered twice and added a run on a suicide squeeze en route to a seemingly effortless 7-4 Coastal Plain League win at Finch Field on Monday night. The loss dropped the HiToms to 3-8, while Wilson improved to 8-2. The HiToms are still looking for answers after committing three errors that led to three unearned runs for the Tobs. Ryan Daughtry opened the scoring for the Tobs with a towering solo home run in the top of the second. Gar Keen and Ryan Faison led off the second with singles, then Michael Zeblo bunted them over and Keith Morrisroe plated Keen with a suicide squeeze. Chad Hunter made it 3-0 with an RBI single in the fourth. The the defi-
cit didn’t help the home team mentally while it waits on reinforcements still playing in NCAA postseason games. Cass Hargis got the HiToms going with a single in the bottom of the fourth. He moved to second on a walk, stole third then scored on a wild pitch. Nick Aranas then helped the Tobs respond with an RBI double in the sixth. Kyle Barbeck scored on an error in the bottom of the sixth, and Hargis homered leading off the eighth. But the Tobs got a tworun homer from Matt Johns in the seventh. Daughtry scored on an error in the eighth to keep the home team at bay. Ben Grisz blasted a solo home run in the ninth for the final margin. Hargis had three of the HiToms’ five hits. Mike Hamann took the loss, giving up six runs (four earned) in 62⁄3 innings. The HiToms travel to Martinsville on Tuesday before hosting Asheboro on Wednesday.
College slugger goes No. 1 in baseball draft SECAUCUS, N.J. (AP) — The Washington Nationals selected junior college slugger Bryce Harper with the No. 1 overall pick in the baseball draft Monday night. Harper, a 17-year-old with prodigious power from the College of Southern Nevada, is one of the most-hyped players in draft history because of his eye-popping talent at the plate. A year after taking similarly hyped right-hander Stephen Strasburg, the Nationals got him a potential batterymate, although Harper was announced as an outfielder at the draft site at MLB Network studios by commissioner Bud Selig.
The 6-foot-3, 205-pound Harper surpassed former big league pitcher Alex Fernandez, who went fourth overall to the Chicago White Sox in 1990, as the highestdrafted JUCO player. He hit .443 with 31 home runs and 98 RBIs in his first college season after skipping his final two years of high school and getting his GED. Harper is expected to seek a record contract through his adviser, Scott Boras, who last year negotiated a recordbreaking four-year, $15.1 million deal with the Nationals for Strasburg. The top overall pick last June is scheduled to make his major league debut Tuesday.

The Rams announced Monday that they have acquired the four-time Pro Bowl wide receiver from San Francisco in advance of a retirement news conference on Wednesday.

Bruce, 37, was chosen in the second round (33rd overall) of the 1994 draft out of Memphis by the Los Angeles Rams and spent the next 13 seasons in St. Louis after the franchise relocated here. He holds franchise records for receptions, receiving yards and receiving touchdowns. He caught the
Lehman, Love qualify for Open COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Major champions Tom Lehman, Davis Love III and Ben Curtis all made the field on Monday for the U.S. Open at Pebble Beach. Two youngsters who beat all three a day earlier at the Memorial Tournament — Justin Rose and Rickie Fowler — did not. Rose, who won his first PGA Tour event, and Fowler, the flashy 21-year-old who finished second, fell far short of being among the 15 qualifiers through 36 holes of sectional qualifying Monday at The Lakes and Brookside courses. Others qualifying included Stuart Appleby, Bo Van Pelt and Aaron Baddeley. Love made it in after a six-player playoff for the last five spots. Rocco Mediate was eliminated with a bogey on the third playoff hole.

Hossa sees getting first goal as critical in Game 6
Bryant terse in wake of Game 2 loss
BOSTON (AP) — Chin resting in his hand, mouth barely moving as he spoke, Kobe Bryant had the look of someone who would have rather been anywhere but Staples Center. The next few nights might make him long to be back home. The NBA’s best rivalry is returning to its East Coast headquarters, site of perhaps the most miserable moment of Bryant’s career last time he and the Los Angeles Lakers were here for the finals. And the Boston Celtics and their green-clad fans can’t wait to welcome him back. “I feel good going back to the jungle,” Celtics forward Kevin Garnett said Sunday. Those familiar “Beat L.A! Beat L.A!” chants that have echoed through the Garden during so many springtimes will be booming again, and the Celtics can lock up an 18th NBA title if they can do just that three times. Game 2 is Tuesday night, followed by games Thursday and Sunday in Boston. The Celtics evened the series at a game apiece with their 103-94 victory in Game 2, with guards Rajon Rondo and Ray Allen taking turns punishing the Lakers, and Bryant often powerless to stop them because of foul trouble. A fuming Bryant had little to say afterward, offering terse responses as he looked back on that game and ahead to the next one. “It’s the most important game. Game 1 was the most important, Game 2 was the most important, now it’s Game 3,” Bryant said. “It’s just the next game, simple as that.” The finals are deadlocked after two games for the first time since 2004, when the Detroit Pistons split a pair in Los Angeles before coming home and winning three straight to take the series. That was Bryant’s first loss in the championship round. His other one came two years ago, on a night the Lakers will never forget.

Boston Celtics guard Rajon Rondo (bottom), Los Angeles Lakers guard Derek Fisher (center) and Boston forward Kevin Garnett battle for a rebound during the second half of Game 2 of the NBA basketball finals Sunday. Boston won 103-94. The Celtics pummeled them 131-92 in a Game 6 rout that was decided after mere minutes. While Garnett, Allen and Pierce celebrated their long-awaited first NBA title, the humiliated Lakers sat trapped in their team bus as Boston fans taunted them from the street. “Obviously there’s feelings involved and there’s memories that are in there, which should help us, should help us to push through and to battle even harder,” Lakers forward Pau Gasol said of that night. Both teams were off Monday following the cross-country flight from Los Angeles. “We took home court, so we’ve got a chance to play three games (at home),” Celtics forward Paul Pierce said Sunday. “But I told you all yesterday that doesn’t guarantee we’re going to win the games because we’re at home. We’ve got to go out there and play the game. They’re going to be coming into our house and we can’t assume anything.”
CHICAGO (AP) — Marian Hossa knows better than most that no lead is safe in the Stanley Cup finals. The Chicago Blackhawks forward, in the championship round for a third straight season, finds himself in a familiar situation. With Detroit a year ago, he was part of a Red Wings team that won the first two games at home, lost the next two in Pittsburgh, prevailed in Game 5 back on home ice for a 3-2 lead and then dropped the final two games as the Penguins captured the Cup. The Blackhawks have followed that exact path through the first five games against the Philadelphia Flyers. And now they can secure the fran-
chise’s first Stanley Cup in 49 years on Wednesday night at the Wachovia Center. “We know it’s going to be the toughest game to close it,” said Hossa. “Having been in that situation, especially last year, the momentum in the first shift next game, first goal is going to be so important to get the momentum. ... That’s going to be so important for us to start really well.” Coach Joel Quenneville’s adjustments and line shuffling helped the Blackhawks’ high-energy offense find another gear in a 7-4 victory in Game 5. Chicago stormed out with three first-period goals, prompted a goaltender switch by the Flyers.

Hornets ready to name Williams coach NEW ORLEANS (AP) — The Hornets have scheduled a news conference today to formally introduce Monty Williams as their new head coach. The 38-year-old Williams, who played at Notre
Dame and then for several NBA teams spanning nine seasons, has been an assistant to Portland head coach Nate McMillan since 2005. Portland was a playoff team this past season af-
ter winning 50 games. This will be the first head coaching position for Williams, who was among eight candidates the Hornets interviewed for the job. Another top candidate was Boston Celtics assis-
tant Tom Thibodeau, has agreed to become the next head coach of the Chicago Bulls. The Hornets went 37-45 this past season, missing the playoffs for the first time in three years.

Bank of America to pay settlement WASHINGTON (AP) – Bank of America will pay $108 million to settle federal charges that Countrywide Financial Corp., which it acquired nearly two years ago, collected outsized fees from borrowers facing foreclosure. It’s the latest evidence of misconduct at Countrywide, once an industry giant that has since fallen. Last year, three top executives, including former CEO Angelo Mozilo, were charged with civil fraud and insider trading by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The settlement, which seeks to refund money to about 200,000 borrowers, was announced Monday by the Federal Trade Commis-

Google denies use of private data HARTFORD, Conn. – Google representatives say they’re working with authorities to address privacy concerns over its mapping service. Last month, Google acknowledged it had mistakenly collected data over public Wi-Fi networks in more than 30 countries. Authorities fear the collection may violate privacy laws. Connecticut Attorney General Richard Blumenthal held a news conference Monday urging the search engine company to reveal whether it illegally collected data from state computer networks for the Street View feature.
Gasoline prices start to level off NEW YORK – After dropping 20 cents in the past month, gasoline pump prices are leveling off. Retail gasoline prices fell 0.3 cent Monday to a national average of $2.724 per gallon, according to AAA, Wright Express and Oil Price Information Service.
Airlines may fly back to profits in 2010 BERLIN – The global airline industry is showing a turnaround and will swing back to profit in 2010 after several difficult years, as growth in Asia and the U.S. offsets weaker demand in Europe, the major international air transport group said Monday. Profits are expected to reach $2.5 billion, the International Air Transport Association said, a vast improvement from the $2.8 billion total loss it predicted three months ago.

sion. It is the largest mortgage industry settlement for the agency, which oversees non-banking functions such as debt collection. The FTC has been criticized for failing to protect consumers from abuse by financial companies. The FTC’s chairman, Jon Leibowitz, accused Countrywide of “callous conduct, which took advantage of consumers already at the end of their financial rope.” Bank of America purchased Countrywide in July 2008. The actions in the case took place before the acquisition. Bank of America said it agreed to the settlement “to avoid the expense and distraction associated with litigating the case,” which
also resolves litigation by bankruptcy trustees. “The settlement allows us to put all of these matters behind us,” the company said. Countrywide hit the borrowers who were behind on their mortgages with fees of several thousand dollars at times, the FTC said. The fees were for such services as property inspections and landscaping. In addition, Countrywide created subsidiaries to hire vendors, which marked up the price for such services, the FTC said. The company “earned substantial profits by funneling default-related services through subsidiaries that it created solely to generate revenue,” the agency said in a news release.
Chrysler recalls Jeeps, minivans DETROIT (AP) – Chrysler is recalling almost 600,000 minivans and Jeep Wranglers in the United States and another 100,000 elsewhere because of brake or wiring problems that could create safety issues, the company and federal regulators said Monday. Chrysler said it is recalling 288,968 Jeep Wranglers from the 2006 through 2010 model years due to a potential brake fluid leak. It also is recalling 284,831 Dodge Grand Caravan and Chrysler Town & Country minivans from the 2008 and 2009 model years because a wiring problem can cause a fire inside the sliding doors. Another 76,430 Wranglers and 34,143 minivans are being recalled in Canada, Mexico and other international markets, Chrysler said. Neither problem has
caused any crashes or injuries, Chrysler Group LLC said. It was the second notable recall in the past week for Chrysler. The company recalled nearly 35,000 Dodge Calibers and a limited number of Jeep Compasses last week to fix a potential problem with sticky gas pedals, the same issue that has afflicted millions of Toyotas. In the latest recall, the front inner fender liners on the Jeeps can rub against the brake fluid tubes and cause a leak. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said the leak could lead to a partial brake loss. The minivans can have improperly placed wires that can come into contact with sliding door hinges that could cut through the insulation, Chrysler and NHTSA said.
Panel subpoenas Goldman documents WASHINGTON (AP) – A panel probing the causes of the financial meltdown has issued a subpoena for documents from Goldman Sachs Group Inc. The Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission said Monday that Goldman wouldn’t hand over the documents voluntarily. It said it only issues subpoenas after giving companies time to cooperate. It is not clear what documents the commission was seeking. The bank already has provided reams of documents to the FCIC. “We have been and contin-
ue to be committed to providing the FCIC with the information they have requested,” Goldman Sachs spokesman Michael Duvally said. Goldman, a Wall Street powerhouse, profited from its bets against the housing market before the crisis. It continued to make huge profits after accepting bailout money and other government subsidies. The bank’s success and lavish executive pay have drawn attention at a time when the nation is dealing with near-double-digit unemployment.

Stocks fall in last hour of trading NEW YORK (AP) – Traders gave in to another case of last-hour anxiety Monday and drove stocks to their lowest level in seven months. The Dow Jones industrial average, down just 42 points at 3:15 p.m., closed down 115, or 1.2 percent. That extended the Dow’s sharp drop from Friday, when it lost 323 in response to a disappointing May jobs report. Broader indexes had steeper percentage drops than the Dow on Monday. The technology-focused Nasdaq composite index fell 2 percent. Treasury prices rose as investors again went in search of safe investments. There was no obvious catalyst for Monday’s late slide, although traders were again preoccupied with Europe’s economic problems. The last-hour selling, which followed a similar move Friday, also recalled the 2008 financial crisis, when traders decided the best strategy was to dump stocks just before the close. Monday’s trading also showed how the market’s own dynamics can trigger late selling. Shortly after 3 p.m., the Standard & Poor’s 500 index fell below 1,056.74, what had been its low close for the year. That psychological blow encouraged many traders to sell, and as prices fell, computer “sell” programs kicked in, leading to more selling. Tech stocks suffered some of the biggest losses.

Walgreen ends partnership with CVS
NEW YORK (AP) – Drugstore chain Walgreen Co. said Monday it will end its relationship with competitor CVS Caremark’s pharmacy benefits management business because of complaints about prices and policies intended to bring customers to CVS stores. The decision does not affect current Caremark plans, but if Walgreen stands by its decision, it won’t handle any Caremark-managed prescriptions in about three years. Walgreen said it will not participate in plans that are awarded to Caremark or contracts renewed with Caremark starting Monday. Walgreen is the largest U.S. drugstore chain in terms of locations and revenue, slightly ahead of CVS Caremark Corp. It runs more than 7,500 stores in every state, along with Puerto Rico and Washington, D.C. The company said it is giving up billions of dollars in revenue with the move, although the full effects won’t be felt for a few years. The company said it gets about 7 percent of its annual sales from Caremark plans. That share amounted
to about $4.5 billion in fiscal 2009. CVS said it was “surprised and disappointed” by the decision and had recently discussed these subjects with Walgreen’s management. It said it is open to additional talks. It said Walgreen is trying to squeeze Caremark into giving better reimbursement rates. Walgreen, which is based in Deerfield, Ill., said it does not get enough information from Caremark about new prescription drug plans and contracts. That makes it hard for Walgreen to decide if it makes financial sense for it to participate in the plan. Walgreen said it plans to put more effort into marketing its own programs, including health and wellness plans and worksite pharmacies. Walgreen singled out the Maintenance Choice program for criticism. Maintenance Choice is a major program through which Caremark beneficiaries can pick up 90-day prescriptions at CVS pharmacies or get them delivered through the mail. The program is for patients with chronic illnesses who need regular supplies of medications.
Eurozone nations lay out cuts LUXEMBOURG (AP) – The 16 nations that use the euro will lay out plans to cut public spending Monday as they try to convince jittery markets that no more countries will need bailouts and that the debt crisis can be contained. Despite a massive rescue plan and pledges to cut deficits, confidence in the currency and European countries’ ability to handle heavy debt loads remains fragile – the euro has touched a series of four-year lows in recent days and stock markets have fallen. The latest hit came from
Hungary, which is not part of the common currency but where some government officials warned the country is close to default – two years after it received a bailout from the EU and the International Monetary Fund. Hungary’s government has tried to downplay those comments, but the impact – pushing the euro below $1.19 on Friday for the first time since March 2006 – highlights how closely market fears stalk the region. Dutch Finance Minister Jan-Kees de Jager shrugged off the new drop,
telling reporters that “the present exchange rate of the euro is at its historic average” and that eurozone average debt and deficit amounts are still below countries like the United States, Japan and Britain. European nations pushed for an immediate start on budget cuts at a weekend Group of 20 meeting of finance ministers from leading rich and emerging countries. The U.S., by contrast, called for governments to take care withdrawing stimulus spending that supports growth.
