Lawsuit withdrawn Merchandise Mart files to dismiss damage claim BY PAUL B. JOHNSON ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – Merchandise Mart Properties Inc. withdrew a civil lawsuit against its former executive Tom Mitchell Wednesday, 11 months after the

High Point Market’s second-largest showroom owner and operator first sued Mitchell Mitchell for damages. Merchandise Mart Properties filed the two-page lawsuit dismissal notice in Guilford County Superior Court. The trial between the company and Mitchell, who’s now president of the International Home Furnish-

ings Center, was supposed to begin in early August. The notice indicates that Merchandise Mart Properties “dismisses any and all claims against defendant Thomas S. Mitchell, without prejudice.” An attorney for Merchandise Mart Properties, Jim Hundley of High Point, said the withdrawal of the lawsuit is for “procedural reasons only. We do reserve the right, and have

Group wants teeth in animal cruelty laws BY PAT KIMBROUGH ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – The High Point City Council’s Public Safety Committee on Wednesday heard from several animal-rights advocates seeking stricter laws against animal abuse and neglect. Members of Triad Laws for Paws, the Humane Society of the Piedmont and the Furniture City Kennel Club briefed the committee on a pending law in the N.C. General Assembly that would toughen penalties for animal cruelty and inquired about the pros-

We’re just concerned that laws are inadequate,” said Roberta Wall, one of the proponents of pending legislation that is named for an abused and burned Greensboro dog. Susie’s Law would increase the penalties for abusing animals, making

some types of cruelty cases a higher class of felony that would give judges discretion to impose jail time against offenders. The measure came about after a Greensboro man was convicted of beating and burning Susie, a pit bullshepherd mix, last year. Under the state’s structured sentencing laws, the judge who sentenced her attacker, Lashawn Whitehead, was not able to give him active time after he pleaded guilty to felony animal cruelty. He did receive six to eight months in prison for setting the dog on fire when he also

pleaded guilty to burning personal property. Susie’s owner, Donna Lawrence, who adopted her, brought her to Wednesday’s meeting. The dog has scars but is doing much better. “I wouldn’t care if it was a deer or fox or whatever – if somebody did that to her, they ought to be locked up,” said Mayor Becky Smothers. The committee voted to forward a resolution in support of Susie’s Law to the full council for its consideration. The law recently was placed on a fast track to passing the

General Assembly. It has been passed by the state House and sent to the Senate Rules Committee. Supporters said they were optimistic the bill would soon reach the Senate floor, but were hoping to clear up misconceptions that the law could somehow impose restrictions on hunters or owners of show dogs. “My concern is that a lot of people think this would affect them, but it does not,” said Cindy Oakley. “We’ve met some opposition.” pkimbrough@hpe.com | 888-3531

Denton eyes old Burlington property BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

DENTON – Denton officials are exploring the possibility of buying the old Burlington Industries Plant on Bombay Road that has been vacant for several years. Mayor Scott Morris said the town’s Board of Commissioners held a public hearing this week where about 40 people showed up to speak. He said town officials have been “kicking around the idea” and have not made any decisions to move forward. “It has been vacant for some years,” Morris said. “The price now is gotten down to where the town might could afford to buy it, go in and do some refurbishing of it.” Town officials are looking at the property because it could be a viable location for Denton’s own industrial park, Morris said. According to the mayor, the asking price for the property is $990,000 – an amount that’s enticed town officials to examine the 573,000square-foot building and its 186 acres of land.

DON DAVIS JR. | HPE

Denton Mayor Scott Morris stands at the old Burlington Industries site on Bombay Road. The town is considering purchasing the property. The Burlington Industries Plant, built in 1965, once had 1,200 employees during its peak before closing in 1996, Morris said. It’s been difficult to sell the building because of its large size, Morris said, adding that the town could split up the building to accommodate several businesses. “It would be like we’d put it out

for sale, lease or rent to bring jobs – strictly for economic development,” the mayor said. “I feel like we could break it off and attract some more smaller businesses that could be able to afford a building versus a huge building. I think the opportunities are great for this property if we can get a hold of it at a reasonable price and get it up-

fitted, where it could be a good opportunity for other businesses to come and bring some jobs to the lower end of Davidson County.” Before the town bought the property, Denton officials would have to conduct a study to see how much it would cost to refurbish the building, Morris said. So far, the public has been split on the town’s decision to explore the purchase of the building, with some worried about taxes going up if Denton bought it. Morris said town officials believe Denton can afford it without any tax increase. “Most of them are for it because they feel like it would give us an opportunity to somewhat help ourselves as far as jobs, get people here and try to recruit more businesses once we got this building under our control and get it more marketable,” he said. “They are looking at the job aspect.” Morris said the town’s Board of Commissioners could put an offer on the table for the building during its 7 p.m. June 21 meeting. dignasiak@hpe.com | 888-3657

Airport event celebrates runway completion, helps good cause BY JORDAN HOWSE ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

GREENSBORO – Piedmont Triad International Airport on Saturday will celebrate the completion of the airport’s new 9,000-foot runway while helping raise money for a good cause. The day will start with a 5K run/ walk on the runway at 8 a.m. and 1mile race on the runway at 9 a.m. Registration for the 5K is open online until 3 p.m. today and 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Friday at Off ’N Running Sports in Greensboro. Before-race-day-registration fees are $25 for the 5K and $15 for the mile. On the day of the race, fees are $30 for the 5K and $20 for the mile. The run will benefit the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society in honor of Jay Kirby, a 14-year-old local boy with leukemia whose father was involved with the design of the new runway. The Kids Dash and awards follow the mile. T-shirts will be available on a firs-come, first-served basis. Awards will be given to the top three overall male and female runners in each age group and the top male and female winners will re-

Panel clears wide incentives bill RALEIGH (AP) – Boosters of an economic development package that cleared a House committee Wednesday said it will help bring good jobs to the state and perk up the ailing tax base – even though a university study argues a portion of the tax breaks that woud be extended are no longer effective. Part of the bill is similar to a measure designed to encourage computer data centers, an energy turbine manufacturer and a paper plant to expand in the state. Those expanded enterprises alone could generate at least 1,200 jobs and more than $2 billion in capital investment, deputy state commerce secretary Dale Carroll said. The bill, if approved, could create $93 million in tax breaks annually by 2015, according to an analysis performed by legislative staff.

The runway dedication begins at 10 a.m. The dedication is by invitation only and will feature four speakers: Henry Issacson, chairman of the Piedmont Triad Airport Authority; Republican 6th District Congressman Howard Coble; Joe Stephens, FedEx managing director for Greensboro; and Doug Murphy, Federal Aviation Administration regional administrator for the Southern region. The runway was funded primarily through federal government grants, along with $30 million from locally generated airport authority revenues. Though built for $150 million to accommodate FedEx, the new runway is open to all aviation traffic. “This is a public airport and public money was used to design and build the runway, so it is open for use by other companies,” said Stephanie Freeman, airport administrative aide. The runway opened Jan. 27. It was proposed in April 1998 as part of the plan to recruit FedEx’s latest national cargo hub. Now that the hub is fully operational, it will involve 126 daily flights between 10 p.m. and 4 a.m.

Animal-rights activists push for tethering law BY PAT KIMBROUGH ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

Merchandise Mart withdraws damage claim

Elsewhere...

HIGH POINT – An enhancement to local laws is needed to address the problem of dogs being chained or tied up for long periods of time, animal-rights advocates told city officials Wednesday. They discussed the idea of a tethering ordinance with the council’s Public Safety Committee. Such a law would limit the amount of time an animal could be confined in this manner on the

City officials are looking into how other communities handle the issue and may develop a draft ordinance for the council to consider. “When you tether a dog, you’re unsocializing it. They become a cannon, a loaded gun,” said Ginny Wiltsey, executive director of the Humane Society of the Piedmont. “If you ride through High Point, tethering is rampant. (Dog owners) chain up their pit bulls to bulk them up by having them pull on the chain. Then what are they going to do? They’re going to fight them.” The question arose as to whether a

Group wants tougher animal cruelty laws. 1A tethering ordinance could be difficult to enforce and could spark a flood of calls from residents with frivolous complaints about their neighbors’ dogs. “How are we going to prove it if we can’t sit there and watch?” said Animal Control Officer Holly Lackey, who attended Wednesday’s discussion. Councilman Mike Pugh said there are a variety of ongoing animal-related problems in the south High Point ward he represents, including a case in April at a Terrell Drive home in which three dogs were left on chains in the backyard and apparently starved to death. “When there’s not responsible pet ownership, that sometimes puts the public safety at risk, and we need to walk a fine line and come up with a solution that will address both the public safety side and the responsible pet ownership side,” Pugh said. The city’s police department has two officers who handle animal control, and officials said there are no plans to change this arrangement or turn the service over to Guilford County. “I guarantee you, we do better with two people in High Point than we would with a call to Greensboro and someone gets assigned here,” said Mayor Becky Smothers. “Our animal control people are in many ways kind of like our detectives. They know the bad folks.” pkimbrough@hpe.com | 888-3531

MMPI’s decision to dismiss clearly shows that,” Mitchell said. Lasine said the dismissal reflects the poor case put together by Merchandise Mart Properties – especially a withdrawal so close to the start of the trial. Merchandise Mart Properties sued Mitchell,

Kerviel goes on offensive on trial’s second day PARIS – The former trader accused of nearly toppling France’s Societe Generale argued in court Wednesday he didn’t invent the tricks that allowed him to gamble tens of billions of euros of the bank’s money, insisting such practices were tolerated by management. Jerome Kerviel used his second day in court to try to turn the tables on his former employer, portraying himself as a pawn and casting his bank as an anythinggoes place where he was encouraged to take massive risks until the scandal broke in January 2008.

The killing of the Mexican – the second in less than two weeks – has exposed the distrust between the two countries that lies just below the surface.

UNITED NATIONS (AP) – The U.S. and its allies scored a longsought victory Wednesday by pushing through new U.N. sanctions over Iran’s nuclear program, punishments Tehran dismissed as “annoying flies, like a used tissue.� The sanctions target Iran’s powerful Revolutionary Guard, ballistic missiles and nuclear-related investments. U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton on Wednesday called the sanctions a victory for the Obama administration’s policy of engagement. She said the U.N. Security Council’s enactment of fresh penalties targeting Iran’s suspect nuclear program proved that President Barack Obama had taken the right diplomatic approach to the Islamic republic.

But the things Gazans need most – cement, steel and other materials to rebuild their war-ravaged territory – are still mostly banned, and critics denounced the move as insignificant.

Ex-aide talks of plans to make money

AP

Crosses in the yard of a home in Grand Isle, La., lament items endangered by the Deepwater Horizon oil spill.

Tempers flare over BP, claims process GRAND ISLE, La. (AP) – Gulf Coast fishermen, businesses and property owners who have filed damage claims with BP over the oil spill are angrily complaining of delays, excessive paperwork and skimpy payments that have put them on the verge of going under as the financial and environmental toll of the disaster grows by the day. Out in the Gulf of Mexico, meanwhile, the oil company Wednesday captured an ever larger-share of the crude gushing from the bottom of the sea and began bringing in more heavy equipment to handle it. The containment effort played out as BP stock plunged to its lowest level in 14 years amid fears that the company might be forced to suspend dividends and find itself overwhelmed by the cleanup costs, penalties, damage claims and lawsuits generated by the biggest oil spill in U.S. history.

Obama’s next Gulf trip taking shape

AP

A worker uses a suction hose to remove oil washed ashore from the Deepwater Horizon spill in Belle Terre, La., Wednesday. “Every day we call the adjuster eight or 10 times. There’s no answer, no answering machine,� said Regina Shipp, who has filed $33,000 in claims for lost business at her restaurant in Alabama. “If BP doesn’t pay us within two months, we’ll be out of business. We’ve got two kids.�

Shrimpers, oystermen, seafood businesses, out-of-work drilling crews and the tourism industry all are lining up to get paid back the billions of dollars washed away by the disaster, and tempers have flared as locals direct outrage at BP over what they see as a tangle of red tape.

WASHINGTON (AP) – The White House is releasing more details about President Barack Obama’s two-day trip to the Gulf region next week to survey the response to the massive oil spill. Obama spokesman Robert Gibbs says Obama will make stops at the U.S. Coast Guard station in Gulfport, Miss., and in Theodore, Ala., a staging area for many aspects of the response. Gibbs says Obama may also visit Orange Beach, Ala., and Pensacola, Fla., where oil is beginning to wash ashore. Gibbs says Obama will meet with residents and local officials in each of those states. His previous trips to the region have been to Louisiana, and none have kept him in the area overnight.

CHICAGO (AP) – The birth of a conspiracy to profit from Rod Blagojevich’s position came as early as 2003 when the then-governor met with three close advisers to discuss how to make money and divvy up the spoils, a key witness testified Wednesday. In dramatic testimony at Blagojevich’s corruption trial, his one-time chief of staff Alonzo Monk said the two of them, along with fundraisers Tony Rezko and Christopher Kelly, discussed various ways they could make money through state action. Monk, who was Blagojevich’s law school roommate and was by his side through most of his political career, said the group calculated that each of several schemes would raise $100,000 each and that the money would be divided up equally among the four. But Monk said he and Blagojevich would get the money only after the governor left office. “We didn’t want to be receiving that money when Rod was in office, where there was potentially a lot of scrutiny ... (from) some law enforcement agency ... it could have been the media also,� he said. As for why he was so concerned, he said: “In all likelihood, it would be wrong and breaking the law.� Monk has pleaded guilty in the case and took the witness stand in the hopes of getting a lighter sentence.

Obama calls for new approach on Gaza blockade WASHINGTON (AP) – President Barack Obama called on Wednesday for sharply limiting Israel’s blockade of the Gaza Strip in the wake of the botched Israeli naval raid that’s straining U.S. and Israeli relations with allies around the world, and the White House announced a $400 million aid package for Gaza and the West Bank. “The situation in Gaza is unsustainable,� Obama said as he met with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas in the Oval Office.

He said the attention of the world is on the problem because of the “tragedy� of the Israeli raid that killed nine people trying to bring in supplies. Obama called for narrowly tailoring Israel’s broad blockade on goods entering the Gaza Strip so that arms are kept out, but not items needed for the Palestinians’ daily life and economic development. “The key here is making sure that Israel’s security needs are met but that the needs of people in Gaza are also met,� said Obama.

Litterers leave quite a mess behind The week before Memorial Day, I finally felt like rolling my wheelbarrow down to the end of my drive to try to get the trash from the ditches. The rains had washed quite a bit of leaves down and it had filled to the top of the culvert. I am a senior and physically unable to get in the ditches, so I carried a hoe and pulled out 11 cans – mostly beer – and a liter bottle of soda. There are no words in the dictionary to describe people who are too sorry to keep a trash bag in their car, instead of making a mess beside our highways. Last week, I went to my mail box and there were more cans, an old rag, paper bag and a dirty diaper thrown on the roadside directly in front of my house. As I looked down the road, there was other litter as well. I already know this letter will do no good because motorists who litter have no conscience, no pride in the beautiful land that God has given us. They care not for other people’s property.

It is past time for folks to start taking pride in their community, some pride in themselves; to treat other people as they would want to be treated. You who are guilty should think about the fact that someone may live in these homes who are elderly or disabled. You may be in this state some day. I live in a nice brick home and my son keeps my yard mowed and neat. Yesterday’s trash is still out there for all who pass to see. We do not have time nor the energy to clean up after you.

Why would anyone steal American flags? The High Point Enterprise

recently printed articles about having flags flying Main Street. But, oh, what a beautiful sight it was when you went down N.C, 62 going into Thomasville on Memorial weekend. There were at least 150 flags blowing proudly. This is not the first time flags were in Trinity but usually fly several times a year honoring our country and veterans. These flags are put up by a small group of citizens known as The Friends of Trinity. The city of Trinity did not purchase these flags, but rather committee members did. They do fundraisers to raise money to maintain the flags and, with permission of the city, display them on utility poles. On a sad note, during this past Memorial weekend, at least 15 flags were stolen. To those individuals responsible – shame on you.

And to The Friends of Trinity, thank you for getting up at the crack of dawn to put the flags out to remember our country and veterans. ANGELA PEELE Trinity

hange is the law of life. And those who look only to the past or the present are certain to miss the future. – John F. Kennedy Change has taken place on the property at the corner of Greensboro and Deep River roads in every decade since the George Penny home was located there in the 1920s. During the Great Depression, the site was home to the Methodist Protestant Orphanage, then became housing for High Point College students in the 1940s before the North Carolina Synod of the Presbyterian Church decided to establish a Presbyterian Home for the Aged. Location of the home was the result of financial considerations – Mrs. Mary Beele Burrus’ will gave “a large sum of money to the home” to locate in High Point. The mission of caring for older adults began in 1944 when Albemarle Presbytery presented an overture to Synod to investigate the advisability of establishing a home for the aged. At the meeting of Synod in 1946, a resolution was passed which created the first Board of Trustees. The Presbyterian Home of High Point was incorporated on Dec. 17, 1946, and opened on Jan. 21, 1952. The main building complex, apartments, cottages and duplexes on the Presbyterian Home campus had been expanded enough by the 1990s to serve 300 residents.As a result of the Presbyterian Home having a waiting list and being land locked, the idea of an additional community in High Point was born. River Landing at Sandy Ridge admitted its first residents in January 2003. In 2005, the decision was made to close the Presbyterian Home and expand the River Landing community to accommodate remaining Presbyterian Home residents. That relocation process was completed in November 2009.Last week, it was announced that all structures on Presbyterian Home property would be demolished and Presbyterian Homes Inc. will attempt to sell the land. Many in the greater High Point area will miss seeing those structures as they travel Greensboro and Deep River roads and even the U.S. 311 Bypass but, realizing change is inevitable, will anticipate what will occupy that space in the future – hopefully, the near future.

The perfect response from imperfect men A

few words about the things we seek from baseball. From all sports, really, but from America’s pastime more than most. We seek heroes, of course, men and women who thrill us with their excellence, stun us with their prowess, whose diving catches and fadeaway jumpers jerk us to our feet, fists pumping, mouths wide and roaring. But more than heroes, we seek examples, parables with which to teach our kids. Sports is, after all, an irresistible microcosm of life and its verities, an ongoing lesson in how to get a win and bear a loss, in the value of hard work and team work, in the importance of resilience and leadership, sacrifice and self-confidence. These are valuable things to know. So who can blame the parent who instinctively points his children toward hardwood and grassy field, who implores them to take the lessons embodied there and apply them to school, to life and, yes, to Little League? Who can blame the parent who says, “Look, kids. Look,” as verities are taught and heroes go striding past? Unfortunately, sports heroes too often behave in ways that make you want to cover your child’s eyes instead. Nothing new about that, granted: Mickey Mantle was a drunk, Ty Cobb was a bigot. But nobody knew that then. We know so much more now, in a world where news is all access 24/7, 365. We know about Ben Roethlisberger and Kobe Bryant being accused of sexual assaults, about Barry Bonds’ alleged use of illegal performance-enhancing drugs and Alex Rodriguez’s and Mark McGwire’s admitted use of same, about Michael Vick’s dog-fighting and et cetera. We know enough, get disappointed often enough, that the very idea of seeking verities and lessons on fields of athletic competition comes to seem tawdry and naive. You grow up. You get wise. You move on, making your peace with the fact that you will not find things worth showing your children in baseball or in sports, period. Maybe it was foolish to ever think you could. Then you get a game like last week’s between Cleveland and Detroit. It seems Detroit pitcher Armando Galarraga

was on the verge of a perfect game. The perfect game – i.e., the game where the pitcher allows no batter on base – is perhaps the rarest occurrence in sports: there have been only 20 in the last 130 years. Galarraga needed just one more out to join that rarefied company. OPINION Instead, he was robbed. The culprit was umpire Jim Joyce, who Leonard made what’s already being called Pitts one of the worst calls of all time ■■■ when he ruled Cleveland’s Jason Donald safe at first. An instant replay showed Donald was, in fact, out. And just like that, Galarraga’s shot at history was gone. Joyce was reported to be disconsolate after he saw the replay. `”I just cost that kid a perfect game,” he said. What’s remarkable, though, is what happened afterward. The umpire sought out the player and apologized, weeping. And Galarraga promptly accepted. “Nobody’s perfect,” he explained. It bears repeating: As fans were dripping froth, as the Joyce family was reporting actual death threats, the embarrassed and reviled umpire owned his mistake and apologized, and the bitterly disappointed pitcher shrugged it off as one of those things. And both put it behind them and went back to work. The game might not have been perfect, but that response surely was. You will seldom see better definitions of integrity, civility, sportsmanship. Of The Way Things Ought To Be. And as wised up as you are to the futility of seeking verities from sport, as often as you’ve promised your disappointed heart you won’t disappoint it again, the sheer grace of that moment gets through your defenses like a ground ball trailing fire.

COMMENTARY THE HIGH POINT ENTERPRISE THURSDAY, JUNE 10, 2010 www.hpe.com

Actions, reactions tell us the measure of a man P

riorities are often a good sign of what someone is really thinking. We can tell what matters by where they are willing to first put their money, or by the first words out of their mouth, after something really big has happened. The immediate actions are a glimpse at what really matters to someone, before they’ve had a chance to hire some talking heads and rewrite the story. This is helpful in an age of spinmeisters who are so good at getting us to drink the Kool Aid and agree that up is down or billions of gallons of spewing oil is only a temporary setback or an unfortunate incident. Tony Hayward, CEO of BP, is giving us some insight into his particular affections for us by choosing to spend millions on an ad campaign last week to talk directly to the people. Meanwhile, his company released a statement that they’d help out area businesses who were hurt as long as their claims were legitimate. They’d like to err this time on the side of caution. Rather than pour billions of dollars, or at least millions, into helping the small businesses and American families’ bottom lines that are going to become extinct right along with the wildlife along the East Coast, BP has instead hired Anne Womack-Kolton to wipe off all of the inky black goo and help us be grateful BP is still there. By now, everyone’s early warning system should be blaring because of the lines we’re about to be fed, wholesale. Keep a picture of all of the pelicans coated in oil close by as a handy reminder. Womack-Kolton is previously best known for being Dick Cheney’s former press secretary and part of the PR firm that worked so hard to make Big To-

bacco not smell so bad. BP has some big image building to do in order to not go down in history as the company that caused the largest natural disaster in the history of the U.S., and by the time it’s OPINION over perhaps the world. Forget that BP also Martha R. has another oil leak in Carr Alaska to contend with right now or that they have one of the worst records of any of their peers. That’s a tall order. Hayward has also chipped in $25 million to promote Florida beaches in yet another ad campaign. It appears that he is a big fan of Mad Men. Apparently no one told him just how much TV Ameri-

----

cans like to watch, too. We’ve already seen endless coverage of the oil balls coming ashore and the long, slimy snake of oil that just keeps building. Telling us that it’s really not as bad as we can see that it is gives one more glimpse into how we can expect the cleanup to be handled. Just to help them out, here’s another recent example of what to do after you’ve screwed up in public and hurt someone else. Last week, umpire Jim Joyce blew a call during a game between the Detroit Tigers and Cleveland Indians calling Cleveland’s runner, Jason Donald safe when he was clearly out. The call cost Tigers pitcher Armando Galarraga a perfect game. The incident could have spun out for the next few weeks as a nasty footnote in American sports.

Immediately after the game, however, Joyce realized his error and asked to speak with Galarraga so that he could apologize. He was still in his uniform. Apparently, it’s rare for umpires to admit when they’re wrong but Joyce didn’t hesitate, didn’t make excuses and didn’t have someone else deliver his apology for him. He didn’t even try to buy the pitcher dinner in an attempt to make him feel better. Galarraga, for his part, accepted the apology and the loss of a mention in baseball’s history, with immense grace never losing his cool or his smile. The next time Joyce came onto the field to call another game, Galarraga came over to greet him and shake his hand, his smile still in place. Even the Detroit fans were cheering for Joyce who was moved to tears. A perfect game was lost but a moment of inspiration was created that touched far more people. It was all a reminder that when someone is truly sorry they don’t give you explanations in some kind of attempt to manipulate your reaction. They don’t hire PR firms to write a better back story either. They stand out in front of it all and take responsibility, pour all of their resources toward fixing the actual problem, which is not their corporate image, and they leave the rest to history. Keep following the money, and just the money, and you’ll know where BP’s true intentions lie.

High school would be a lot different, if ... BY PETER FUNT

A

s my two kids progressed through public high school, I launched numerous dinner table discussions with the same six words. Now that it’s graduation time, I’m going take one last crack at starting that way. If I ran a high school... • I’d make the demands of the school day fewer, and the school year longer. Kids don’t have enough time to think straight let alone juggle classes, clubs, sports, homework and family, and still get 8 to 9 hours of sleep each night, which most experts believe is necessary. At our high school in Carmel, Calif., they’re now considering starting classes an hour later, at 8:45 a.m., based on numerous studies showing teens don’t function best at an earlier hour. Incredibly, there is even research showing that teens have fewer accidents just getting to school if the bell rings later. Yet, the U.S. is falling behind, and a cue can be taken from nations that have a shorter summer break. More 10-day vacations rather than two or three months off would be better than the current American approach. • I’d cut down on homework, particularly the busy-work kind, even in AP and honors classes. I’d also command teachers to coordinate tests so they don’t pile up on the same days. • Speaking of honors classes, I’d fix the problem some schools face with a “weightedâ€? grade-point system that forces high achievers to opt out of electives – such as music or journalism - because even an “Aâ€? in those classes would lower their GPA. • I’d give more time for a healthy lunch (our kids got 35 minutes). And I’d forbid clubs and other school groups from holding meetings at lunch, which serve to reduce meals to a few hasty bites.

• I’d see to it that all students in all grades have organized exercise daily, unless they play a team sport, in which case I’d place them in a special study hall where they can catch up on homework. • I’d insist that loaded backpacks not be so heavy. The potential back strain won’t necessarily show up for years, when it’s too late. I see that a high school in Clearwater, Fla., is going to distribute Kindle e-readers to its 2,100 students, with all text book content loaded on the single lightweight device. • However, I’d prohibit cell phones and other personal communication devices in classes. It astonishes me that some teachers allow texting in the classroom. • I’d stop kids who do poorly in class from “making upâ€? the credits by taking poorly run and virtually useless online

orchestra to wear earplugs. Studies have shown how high volume affects kids’ hearing; one study even revealed that many music teachers suffer serious hearing loss without protection. • I’d end the practice of allowing seniors to leave school early each day if they have sufficient credits for graduation.

THOMASVILLE – Thomasville Medical Center is throwing its own birthday party Saturday to commemorate the hospital’s 80th anniversary. “We are hosting a party to say thank you to the community for their support over the years,” said Jane Wilder, the hospital’s director of community relations. “We proudly provide remarkable health care, including advanced surgical procedures, diagnostic imaging, deliver new babies and provide the community a state-of-the-art emergency department. We do this exceeding state averages on quality scores and patient satisfaction. We have a lot to celebrate.” The celebration, which includes a free hot dog lunch and birthday cake, will take place from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday at the hospital’s campus on Old Lexington Road.

John Porter (left) and Eric Garner work at cleaning out this old spring, located just below Thomasville Medical Center, which can be seen in background. The spring, dating back to perhaps the ‘30s, was at one time the main water supply of the Long Estate. The land the hospital is located on once belonged to the Long family. The spring and area around it is where the celebration on Saturday will be held. event will consist of live music, a car display, a bounce house, clowns and face painting. Thomasville police will be on hand to help with a safety check for children bringing their bikes for a ride around the hospital’s lake, where the event will take place. Wilder said the hospital during the event will honor Nancy Jo Everhart Bowser

and Pauline Cox, who were the first two babies born at the hospital. The hospital also will provide free blood pressure checks. Thomasville Medical Center, previously known as the City Memorial Hospital, moved from its Pine Street location to Old Lexington Road in 1967. The hospital merged with Novant Health in 1997. Novant

Health since has invested more than $50 million in Thomasville Medical Center, Wilder said. “I think one of the reasons that we have been successful is because the community that originally built the hospital has continued to support the hospital,” Wilder said. “They realize that they don’t have to leave the county to get

good quality services. That makes a difference.” At its 80th anniversary, Thomasville Medical Center remains a strong business, Wilder said. “We have tremendous leadership, forward thinking and continue to bring new programs to the hospital,” she said.

Whitley makes council re-election bid official BY PAUL B. JOHNSON ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – City Council veteran Chris Whitley will campaign on his long experience as a local elected official and conservative approach to government as he seeks another term in Ward 5. Whitley, who serves as High Point mayor pro tem and has 17 years on council, formally announced Wednesday he plans to seek another term during this year’s city municipal elections. Whitley will have at least one

challenger. Firsttime candidate Geoff Shull indicated last week that he’ll seek the Ward 5 seat. The filing period for this year’s Whitley High Point municipal elections takes place July 2-16, with voters deciding the races for mayor and the eight council seats in the Nov. 2 general election. Whitley said his experience would serve a critical role with the upcoming loss of two veteran councilmen — John Faircloth

and Bill Bencini. Faircloth will become a state representative and Bencini will become a Guilford County commissioner this winter, since both men are unopposed as Republicans on the general election ballot. Between them, Faircloth and Bencini have 18 years of council service. “For the first time in quite a number of years, there’s going to be a hole of experience,” Whitley said. Whitley also plans to campaign on fiscal conservatism, the need for job creation and expanding the city’s industrial base. He

said he doesn’t worry about running on a platform of experience as a politician during what’s perceived nationally as an antiincumbent year in politics. “Given my fiscally conservative positions, I don’t feel that the anti-incumbent scenario plays in on me,” Whitley said. “(I) personally believe that my fiscal conservative philosophy toward wasteful spending is exactly what is needed as the city works its way out of these budget revenue shortfalls.” pjohnson@hpe.com | 888-3528

Showtime wraps up with traffic increase BY PAM HAYNES ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – The fabric trade show Showtime ended its 20-year anniversary celebration Wednesday with an uptick in traffic, according to officials at the International Textile Market Association. Catherine Morsell, ITMA executive director, said the flow of traffic and registrations increased 5 percent compared to the June 2009 show. Traffic also increased 17 percent from the December show. ITMA organizes the event twice a year in June and in December, and the show is predominantly held in the Market Square complex. Attendance is tracked by the number of registrations as well as the number of badges issued to guests who attend

the event, Morsell said. “We’re thrilled to have had a positive show,” she said. “Recently, we’ve come out of a positive (furniture) market and a few positive Showtimes, and that positive trend is continuing.” Representatives from Johnstown, N.Y.-based Townsend Leather Homes that exhibited in the temporary space in Market Square said the company had a strong show based on appointments with buyers, but it saw few walk-in customers. “We come here mostly for appointments, but always hope there will be some walk-ins,” said Alison Maloney, marketing coordinator. “We saw a few walk-ins, but I still don’t think people have the money to travel liked they used to.” Faraj Mizrahi with the

Custom Design Center, also based in New York, said buyers were doing more comparative price shopping as they begin to emerge from the recession. “They really want the right price, which we had,” Mizrahi said. “They also want something different. If you have the right price and something new here, it will bring new customers.” Maloney also said she saw a trend of buyers looking for product that was unique, yet not too out of the ordinary. “Buyers are definitely wanting new product that’s also neutral,” she said. “Even if it’s a color that they’re choosing, it’s subtle.” The next Showtime is slated for Dec. 5-8.

Nancy Jo Fowler Robinson HIGH POINT – Mrs. Nancy Jo Fowler Robinson, affectionately known as “Mama�, 71, of 703 Arlington St., departed this earthly life to her eternal home on June 7, 2010, after a period of declining health. Nancy was born in Davie County, N.C. on January 7, 1939, to the late Arthur and Alma Flint Flower. She attended RA Clement High School in Cleveland, N.C. She was married to Edmond “Sarge� Robinson III for thirtythree wonderful years. She retired from Marsh Furniture of High Point after over twenty years of employment. Nancy Jo was a happy, jolly and high- spirited person that truly loved the Lord. She faithfully served the Lord everywhere. During her life she was the mother of several churches, served on food committees and served as secretary of two churches. Her favorite pastime was viewing and ordering from The Home Shopping Network and QVC, visiting the sick and shut in until she wasn’t able, and remodeling her home. She won several trophies and plaques in bowling competitions, and also loved making ceramics. She is survived by her husband, she affectionately called “Sarge�; four children, Beverly Singleton, and George Glenn (Eula) both of Newberry, S.C., Mel-mar Ford and Stevie (Dion) Palmer of High Point; nine grandchildren; sisters, Virginia Mae (Ronald) Agnew and Mary Fowler of Salisbury, N.C.; Goddaughter, Jimmie Fields of High Point; mother-in-law Helen (Harvey) Little; Doris Robinson, Evon Robinson; a host of nieces, nephews, friends and cousins that included her favorites Lucille and Walter Ford.

Howard Byerly THOMASVILLE – Howard Byerly, 100, of Thomasville graduated from earth and went to meet Jesus Christ, his best friend, on June 8 2010. Mr Byerly was born on May 25, 1910, to Will Byerly and Lujeannie Medlin Byerly. His wife Anno Mae Byerly graduated to Heaven on September 10, 2001. There are so many wonderful ways to describe Howard Byerly’s life, but only one stands the test of time. He allowed God to use him, without question, his entire life. He understood that his life was bought with a price, that price is Jesus. He diligently sought God until his last breath was taken. His life was a direct reflection of what the Christian faith represents, love. He lived his life with the love of others as his first priority. Everyone that crossed his path was touched by his compassionate spirit and encouraged by the love radiating from his smile. Being around him made you strive to be a better person. Without question there was something different about this man, and the difference was Jesus living through him. He lived his life by faith and passed away with faith in the promises of God. He proved that formal education does not necessarily make a man wise. A man with zero formal education graduated and received the ultimate degree. Mr. Byerly was truly a blessing to each person that heard his prayers on the radio ministry he assisted with for many years. He was also an inspiration to the members of Blessings Baptist Church where he attended in Thomasville. Surviving are his daughters, Shirley Loftin and husband Donald, Carolyn Bumgarner; grandsons Steve Loftin and Landis Bumgarner; and great grandchildren, Whitney Freeman, Josh Loftin, and Luke Bumgarner. The family will receive friends Friday, June 11, 2010, from 7:00 - 9:00 p.m. at Thomasville Funeral Home. A Funeral Service will be held at 2:00 p.m. Saturday, June 12th at Thomasville Funeral Home Chapel with the Reverends Pete Bumgarner, Hillis Burton, Jeff Burton, and Ronnie Hendrick officiating.

Pistol-packing parishioner causes uneasiness in flock

D

ear Abby: My parents told me that a member of their congregation carries a licensed gun when he’s in church. He is not a law enforcement officer or a private security guard, but keeps the gun on him “for protection.” When I asked what the pastor has to say about this, I was told, “He doesn’t know or can’t do anything about it.” I suggested that Mom and Dad speak to the congregation board of directors because they are legally and financially responsible for the church. They refused even though they are not happy about this gun issue. My parents have a long history of complaining about things but doing nothing to resolve them. I feel that if someone needs to carry a gun at all times, I don’t want to be in his presence. If he’s the target of an assassination, the killer might shoot the wrong person. I will not set foot in the church as long as that man is there. I’m not sure what bothers me more – that this man is packing heat or that my parents have valid concerns and won’t speak out. What do you think? – Gun-shy in N.Y.C. Dear Gun-shy: If the man has a license to carry the gun, then he is breaking no laws. You are certainly within your rights to refrain from being in his presence. If your parents were really

concerned about their safety, they would either talk to the pastor or go somewhere ADVICE else to worship. BeDear cause they Abby have done ■■■ neither, I think you should let it go. Dear Abby: I am the oldest of three. Our mother was verbally and physically abusive while we were growing up. I now suspect she suffered from bipolar disorder, but back then no one had any idea what it was or how to treat it. Her behavior drove our father away, leaving her to manage finances on her own. She made a miserable mess of it and, at 70, is still working so she can support herself. She wants to retire, but has almost nothing in savings. Because of the way she treated us, none of us wants much to do with her, and we are in no position to support her after she retires. The problem, Abby, is that she has started laying an enormous guilt trip on my 22-year-old daughter and wants her to take her in. I caught wind of it and stepped in. There is no way my daughter should be burdened caring for her grandmother for the next 20 years. I feel bad that she has nowhere to go,

but I feel she’s reaping what she has sown. Am I wrong? – Guilt Trippin’ in New Hampshire Dear Guilt Trippin’: No. But has your mother ever been diagnosed as bipolar? Is she on medications now that help her to control her behavior? If the answer is yes and she has tried to make amends, then perhaps you should try to be more forgiving and forthcoming. If the answer is no, then taking her in would be a disaster. Dear Abby: My husband thinks it’s hilarious to sneak up and scare the daylights out of me. I have told him repeatedly that I don’t think it’s funny and it triggers anxiety attacks, but he won’t listen. I enjoy his playful personality, but the startling has to stop. Any suggestions? – Not Laughing in Greenville, N.C. Dear Not Laughing: Just this: What he’s doing is immature and sadistic. Humor at the expense of others isn’t “playful” – it is hostile. Because it is causing anxiety attacks, consult your doctor and let the doctor explain to your husband the reason that what he’s doing is a bad idea. DEAR ABBY is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O.

Lawmakers still see home foreclosure as crisis RALEIGH (AP) – A proposal in the North Carolina legislature would extend the life of a foreclosure prevention program, and expand it to all borrowers at risk of losing their homes. The Senate Finance Committee on Wednesday recommended a bill that would extend the program’s life from October to May 2013, when lawmakers believe the worst will be over. Mortgage servicers have been required since 2008 to warn homeowners with subprime loans 45 days before pursuing a foreclosure in court. The state banking commissioner is also notified and that office encourages homeowners to get help from a non-profit housing counselor.

Growth hormone not recommended for most adults

D

ear Dr. Donohue: I have read many fantastic claims for the wonders of human growth hormone. It doesn’t seem possible that all these claims are true; however, if only a tenth of them are, it might be worth a try. Please give your opinion of this wonder drug. – L.V.

BLONDIE

The small pituitary gland at the base of the brain makes growth hormone. In children, this hormone does exactly what its name says: It promotes growth. With aging, the production of growth hormone wanes. Decreased growth hormone might contribute to the muscle wasting, fat accumulation and bone weakening that are the fate of older people. That theoretical speculation gave rise to the idea of supplying older folks with the hormone. Carefully controlled studies did show a drop in body fat and an increase in muscle size in treated elderly people. However, no increase in muscle strength, physical performance or quality of life could be demonstrated. Furthermore, growth hormone’s side effects include fluid retention, swelling, joint and muscle pain, loss of the body’s response to insulin, and a loss of blood sugar control. Growth hormone has been used by professional athletes for the same reasons steroids (male hormones) are used. Often it is used in combination with steroids. In young, active men and women, growth hormone fails to enhance athletic performance. It can, however, increase sprinting

capacity. The hormone has a place in treating children who lack it or to spur the growth HEALTH of carefully selected children Dr. Paul lagging far Donohue being their ■■■ peers. Most experts do not recommend it for older adults looking for a potion that restores youth. Dear Dr. Donohue: What can be done for bags under the eyes? – M.V. Those bags are fat globules that have broken through the barriers that normally keep them in place and unseen. It happens with age. The only way to get rid of them is through surgical removal. Dear Dr. Donohue: It is hard for me to take large pills. One day a nurse came with pills and told me to put my chin down to my chest and then swallow. I haven’t had any trouble since. I think this could help other people with the same trouble. I am on 10 mg of prednisone. How long can a person use it? It has many side effects. On the one hand, it helps you; on the other, it kills you. I tried to take 5 mg, but my illness kicked up. – L.P. Many people have trouble swallowing pills, and your technique will be a big help to them. Prednisone is a widely prescribed cortisone

drug. Cortisone drugs are life-savers. They’re the most potent medicines for calming inflammation. It’s true that long use or high doses produce undesirable side effects, including weight gain, a rounded face, loss of bone calcium, susceptibility to infection, cataract formation, muscle weakness and the suppression of the body’s natural production of cortisone by the adrenal glands. Alternate-day therapy might lessen cortisone’s side effects. The drug is given in twice its usual dose one day, and the next day no medicine is taken. Gradual tapering of the dose is another way to reduce the amount of drug. Say your regular dose is 10 mg. Reducing it to 7.5 mg might keep the illness in check while lessening side effects. Lowering it to 5 mg might be too much of a reduction. Dear Dr. Donohue: What is Schamberg’s disease? How is it treated? – A.D. No one is sure what causes Schamberg’s. It’s a leakage of red blood cells from the body’s smallest vessels, capillaries. The pigment within the red blood cells gives rise to orange or yellowbrown blotches covered with small dots that look like cayenne pepper has been sprinkled on them. Usually this occurs in the legs. Sometimes Schamberg’s is associated with the water pill Lasix, Tylenol or nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs like Aleve, Motrin or Advil. Covering the splotches with a cortisone cream or ointment can be helpful.

Thursday, June 10, 2010 CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Leelee Sobieski, 27; Shane West, 32; Elizabeth Hurley, 45; Jeanne Tripplehorn, 47 HAPPY BIRTHDAY: Your ability to understand the effects of your decisions on the people you love will enable you to make good choices, building stronger relationships. Your strength and courage will set the standard. Taking a lead position will also allow you greater control and the opportunity to step into the spotlight, gaining support. Your numbers are 3, 16, 20, 25, 32, 39, 41 ARIES (March 21-April 19): Nothing regarding your work or your current location will be clear-cut. You may have to make some quick decisions if you are to going to take advantage of a chance to do something you’ve wanted to do your whole life. Negotiate wisely. ★★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Interact with people with the potential to help you advance. Make wise choices and you will have a reason to celebrate. Love is on the rise and, with positive circumstances, you will have fun with someone you care for or someone new. ★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Once you sort through the misinformation you’ve been given, you will have no trouble taking over and making an impression. Be careful, however, not to take on an impossible task. If you are direct about what you can offer, your honesty will win trust and support. ★★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): If you have something to share, spit it out. Your practical outlook will capture attention. A promise or commitment can be made that will change your life both personally and professionally. Don’t be afraid of change. ★★★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Don’t leave anything unfinished. Your ability to follow through will raise your profile and reputation. Travel plans can be put into play. A secret interest will develop with the potential to change your way of doing things. ★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Serious action will bring long overdue response. Don’t let anyone bully you into something you don’t agree with. Focus on love and your personal life and let any decisions that you aren’t sure about making sit for now. ★★★★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): It’s time to learn from the experts when it comes to your money and making it work for you. Attend a financial seminar or meet with your broker or bank manager and you’ll feel better about your future. Don’t let someone you love play on your emotions. ★★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Focus on love, romance and enjoying life. Get serious about taking better care of yourself personally, emotionally and financially. You can join forces with someone on a project you’ve been trying to get off the ground. ★★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Too many choices will lead to confusion. Size up your situation and lean toward the people, ideas, projects or plans that will bring you the best returns. An emotional attachment at work can develop if you are honest. ★★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You don’t have to spend a lot to get information pertinent to a deal, project or investment you are considering. Taking the initiative to make personal changes or to update your looks can cause problems if your motives aren’t valid. ★★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Listen and consider what your options are. Getting into a confrontation will not solve problems. Size up your situation and walk away from anyone who’s too demanding. A plan from long ago can be initiated now. ★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Lay your cards on the table and you will get a response. Once you know where everyone stands, you can choose a direction that suits your needs. Stick to the facts; if you give a false impression you may end up losing support. ★★★★

Here’s another deal in which – as in yesterday’s deal – a defender must lead precisely the right card to prevail. North-South have a prosaic auction to 3NT. Suppose West leads a diamond, and declarer wins with dummy’s king. East signals with the five, but when South follows with the jack, West can place him with the ace and queen as well. If South had the doubleton A-J, he’d have let the opening lead ride to his hand. South next starts the clubs by leading the ten to finesse. West wins with the queen.

ONLY CHANCE If South has a five-card club suit, he is about to establish three club tricks to go with three diamonds, two spades and a heart. West’s only chance is to shift to hearts, playing East for the queen and hoping for three heart tricks. But if West leads a low heart, South will play low from dummy. East will take the queen and return a heart to the jack and ace, but dummy will still have a heart stopper. To beat 3NT, West must shift to the NINE of hearts.

DAILY QUESTION You hold: S A K 7 H A 10 4 2 D K 6 3 C 10 9 5. Your partner opens one diamond, you respond one heart and he bids two clubs. The opponents pass. What do you say? ANSWER: Don’t jump to 3NT: You know too little about partner’s hand, and your hand has prime values. If partner has 8 6, 3, A Q 10 9 4, K Q J 7 6, you might go down at 3NT when you could make a minor-suit slam. Jump to three diamonds if that bid is forcing. Otherwise, try a “fourth-suit” bid of two spades. South dealer Both sides vulnerable

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

Cartoon Network begins mystery series Sunday

“U

nnatural History,” Cartoon Network’s first hourlong, live-action mystery series, delivers a new case of cinematic, actionpacked adventure at 8 p.m. each Sunday, beginning this week. “Cartoon Network is expanding the boundaries of traditional kids programming in prime time,” said Rob Sorcher, chief content officer for Cartoon Network. “Unnatural History” brings young audiences an event-quality hour long action series each week” “Unnatural History” centers on Henry Griffin (Kevin G. Schmidt), a teenager with exceptional skills acquired through years of globetrotting

“Unnatural History” centers on Henry Griffin (Kevin G. Schmidt), a teenager with exceptional skills acquired through years of globetrotting with his anthropologist parents. When his parents think it’s time for him to lead a normal high school

life, they pack him up to live with his uncle Bryan (Martin Donovan) and cousin Jasper (Jordan Ga-

varis) in Washington, DC. This isn’t just any high school; it’s located on the grounds of The National

Museum complex. And as Henry, Jasper and their friend Maggie (Italia Ricci) soon learn, this museum is chock full of mysteries that will put Henry’s worldly skills to the test. During Henry’s childhood, he lived among the most exotic people in the world. A student of their ways, he learned the art of self-defense, the skills to survive in the wild and the secrets of their cultures. Having adventures and experiences with masters from around the world, Henry came to possess special physical and mental skills: He can scale walls, throw a javelin and catch a blowgun dart in a fight. Although these skills can come in handy when dealing with sticky situations, they’re not

necessarily the best for fitting into high school. Each week, Henry, Jasper and Maggie investigate a new mystery based on the history, science and foreign culture surrounding The National Museum. However, these mysteries aren’t Henry’s only peril: He’ll also have to figure out how to navigate the equally mysterious social hallways of high school. Cartoon Network (CartoonNetwork.com) is Turner Broadcasting System Inc.’s ad-supported cable service. Nightly from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m., Cartoon Network shares its channel space with Adult Swim, a latenight destination showcasing original and acquired animation for young adults 18-34.

Music review: Clay Walker shows why he’s got longevity “She Won’t Be Lonely Long� (Curb) A country music journeyman, Clay Walker never achieved the superstar status predicted for him when he launched his career with five No. 1 hits between 1993 and 1995. However, unlike most midlevel stars from the ’90s, Walker keeps coming back, thanks to savvy song selection and a friendly, romantic style that fits well with country radio. With the title song of

his new album, “She Won’t Be Lonely Long,� Walker again reaches the top 10, this time with a spirited look at a spurned woman determined to find a better man. If the song has the laid-back, steel-guitar lope of an old-school ’90s hit, well, that only makes Walker’s return more welcome. Working with veteran producer Keith Stegall (Alan Jackson, Zac Brown Band), Walker maintains his usual consistency on most of “She Won’t Be Lonely Long.� The Texan is at his best when discussing love and its complica-

tions, especially on catchy, mid-tempo songs “Like We Never Said Goodbye� and “Wrong Enough To Know� (one of four new songs cowritten by Walker). Walker only stumbles when he takes chances, as in jittery, electronictinged “People In Planes,� in which Walker tries on a contemporary pop sound and finds it doesn’t fit. However, as

long as he stays in his comfort zone, his latest album shows why Walker continues to deserve his place in modern country music. Check out this track: “Keep Me From Loving You,� with its subtly dramatic arrangement, allows Walker to show off his expressive voice with a believable portrayal of faithful love.

NASCAR issues severe penalties BY GREER SMITH ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER

One team owner in NASCAR’s Cup Series and another in the junior Nationwide circuit found out Wednesday that the sanctioning body does not have much tolerance for those who break rules regrading tires. Officials dropped the hammer on the No. 38 team fielded by Bob Jenkins for being caught with valve stem caps that violated rule 2010.7J of the Cup rule book. The rule says that “any device, modification or procedure to the wheel, tire or valve stem hardware, that in the judgement of NASCAR oficials is used to release pressure (beyond normal prssure requirements) from the tire or inner liner will not be permitted. The violation was discovered when officials noticed the tires on the car driven by Travis Kvapil were nearly flat following a rain delay that postponed the start of Sunday’s race at Pocono. The caps were found to be fixed with valves that would let air escape, which could provide an advantage but could also cause a safety issue if an underinflated tire blew out.

Crew chief Steven Lane, car chief Richard Bourgeois and tire specialists Michael Harrold were suspended for the next 12 races and placed on probation until Dec. 13. Lane was fined $100,000, and the team lost 150 driver and car owner points. The car owner deduction drops the team out of the top 35 in standings, meaning that Kvapil must qualify on speed this week at Michigan. Robby Gordon move into the top 35 as a result of the change. Jenkins plans to appeal. “We take the rules of this sport very seriously, and we support NASCAR in its enforcement of those rules,” Jenkins said in a statement. “It was not our intent to put unapproved valve stem caps on our car at Pocono, a track where such a maneuver would clearly not provide any advantage. We are conducting our own internal investigation to determine how those parts got into our inventory and onto our car last weekend. In the Nationwide Series, the No. 38 and No. 10 teams fielded by Todd Braun were penalized for unapproved tire switching and the altering of tire codes. Stuart Cooper, crew chief for the No. 10 car

driven by Tayler Malsam, and Trip Bruce, crew chief for the No. 38 car driven by Jason Leffler, were suspended for the next two Nationwide events and fined $25,000. Tire specialists Sean Whisenhunt and Kevin Bellicourt were also suspended for the next two events. All four were also placed on probation through the end of the year. Leffler and Malsam were penalized 25 driver points; owners Todd and Ralph Braun were docked 25 owners points. NASCAR said tires allocated to Leffler wound up on Malsam’s car during Saturday’s race at Nashville. Teams in the Nationwide series are allowed a specific number of tires at each event. “We understand NASCAR’s need to be consistent in making sure teams adhere to the rule book in order to promote a level playing field,” Braun said in a statement. “This situation is the result of miscommunication between team personnel and we will need to further evaluate the circumstances and work to improve our procedures to ensure this does not happen again.” gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3519

Panthers’ LB suffers torn ACL CHARLOTTE (AP) — Carolina weakside linebacker Thomas Davis has suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee for the second time in seven months, likely leaving the Panthers without one of their top defensive players for the 2010 season. The Panthers revealed the extent of Davis’ injury Wednesday, a day after his knee buckled in a non-contact drill in a voluntary workout. Davis had been making a remarkably speedy recovery after he was first injured Nov. 8 at New Orleans. He was clocked last month running the 40yard dash in 4.47 seconds, bringing hope he could return to the form that allowed him to collect 71 tackles, 11⁄2 sacks and two interceptions in seven games before he was hurt last season. “Thomas is an explosive player. He’s a playmaker, a leader, great in our locker room and he’s someone everybody respects,” Panthers general manager Marty Hurney said. “You always hate to lose somebody like that. You feel so bad for him because he really has worked so hard.” Davis wasn’t wearing a knee brace Tuesday when he fell to the turf while backpedaling, similar to how he was injured the first time while dropping into coverage. He immediately clutched his right knee before walking off the field.

Cass Hargis of the HiToms heads for third on a grounder deep into the hole Wednesday night.

Blooper beautiful for Dillon, HiToms BY STEVE HANF ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER

Elsewhere...

THOMASVILLE – Matt Dillon’s teammates could tease him all they liked Wednesday night. “It looks like an RBI single in the books,” the former Trinity star said with a grin. “They gave me a little bit of a hard time, saying I crushed it, but I’ll take a win any way we can get it.” Dillon sent an inside fastball floating to the outfield grass just out of the reach of first baseman Hunter Ridge to give the HiToms a 6-5 walkoff win against Asheboro. A happy Thomasville squad gathered to celebrate at Finch Field as the Coastal Plain League team – finally taking shape withits late-arriving Division I players – improved to 4-9. “I knew once (Brad) Felder got on it was going to be our game at that point,” HiToms manager Tom Dorzweiler said. “I think some of these other guys coming in has lifted our spirits. The whole attitude of the

----

Nine former HiToms taken in Major League draft. 2A team has changed.” Felder, one of six players to arrive in the past two days, opened the ninth by getting hit by a Brian Rhino pitch. Fellow newcomer Tyler Frederick then worked a walk off Corey Deighan, and both players promptly stole a base on the first pitch to Dillon. With the infield in, Dillon fisted his single just far enough. It was an appropriate ending, considering the HiToms nickeled-anddimed their way to a 5-2 lead before the Copperheads (5-7) roared back with a three-run seventh. Thomasville scored twice in the second off starter Nathan Furr after hitting just one ball out of the infield. An error and two infield singles

plated Dave Roney and Cass Hargis. Three more runs crossed in the fifth, which Seth Freeman opened with a bloop single. Felder’s bunt was thrown away by Furr, Frederick doubled home a run, and two more infield errors made it 5-2 as the HiToms forced the issue with activity on the base paths. Asheboro struck in the seventh off newcomer Jonny Hoffman of Indiana University. Jacob Wilson launched a solo homer to left and, with runners at second and third, Cameron Cockman dropped a single between Dillon at short and Felder in left to tie it at 5-all. J.J. Jankowski shut the door on the Copperheads after that and got the win after recording the final seven outs. The HiToms play host to the Carolina Hurricanes in an exhibition tonight at 7.

hen I think about classic U.S.-England confrontations, the Ryder Cup and Mel Gibson in “The Patriot” immediately come to mind. But World Cup soccer fans proudly point to America’s shocking 1-0 upset of England in the group round of the 1950 World Cup in Brazil. I had no idea America and England ever met on the World Cup stage, so I did a little research and discovered that was quite a dramatic triumph for the Red, White and Blue.

England entered the ‘50 World Cup rated a 3-1 favorite to win it all. The Brits owned a 23-4-3 post-WWII record. Team USA, meanwhile, had lost seven straight international matches by a combined score of 45-2. The U.S. was rated a 500-1 World Cup longshot by the oddsmakers. But Joe Gaetjens scored for the Americans in the 38th minute and the goal stood up. It seems this amazing upset would make a great sports movie – except for the fact that Team USA finished group play with a 1-2 record and did not advance to the next round.

England also finished 1-2 in the ‘50 World Cup and failed to escape group play. For the record, England leads the all-time series with the U.S. by a 7-2 count. The 1950 meeting marks the only time they’ve faced each other in the World Cup. I share this brief history lesson as we prepare for Saturday’s World Cup match between the U.S. and England in Rustenburg, South Africa. Good luck, Team USA.

WHO’S NEWS

Brewers catcher Gregg Zaun will have season-ending shoulder surgery on Tuesday, which will likely finish the veteran’s short stint in Milwaukee and maybe his career. “I’m not in a situation anymore where I need to play. I don’t need to play. I don’t need to play Major League Baseball to validate myself as a person,” Zaun said Wednesday, before the Brewers’ game against the Chicago Cubs. “Do I want to play? That’s a different story. It’s too uncertain to tell. I’m really upset about having surgery and my season being over.” Zaun was wearing jeans and flip flops and looked ready to enjoy what he said would be his final night at Miller Park as he made the rounds to say his goodbyes to teammates and other members of the organization. He and his wife will pack their belongings this weekend.

Big Ten on radar of Huskers

TRG Cup team gives Labonte new crew chief B

obby Labonte will have a new crew chief this weekend at Michigan. TRG Motorsports announced late Tuesday night that Doug Randolph was no lonSPORTS ger with the team and Greer that crew Smith member ■■■ Paul Clapprodd will call the shots from the pit box on an interim basis. “We are pleased to give Paul this opportunity and we wish Doug all the best,” team owner Kevin Buckler said in a statement. “Paul has demonstrated his abilities with the car in the past and has been very dedicated to our program since we started our Sprint Cup operation. Randolph, who worked with Labonte at Petty Enterprises, replaced Slugger Labbe in an overhaul during the winter. Labonte has finished in the lead lap in just five of the 14 races this season. Because of lack of sponsorship, Buckler opted for a “start-and-park” strategy in two of the past three races. Buckler said a permanent replacement for Randolph is expected to be named within two weeks.

THUMBS UP

Team owner Jack Roush does not believe that the new generation Ford engine will hinder its teams as they try to win for the first time this year. The new engine, which has been introduced gradually, is to be widely used for the rest of the season. “We haven’t broken an FR9 engine part,” Roush said. “We have gotten marginally better performance out of the engine. It is all encouraging. . . . The engine is without a flaw. It has marginally more power, has a very fuel efficient cooling system and a very fuel efficient combustion process. “It gets marginally better fuel economy and is more tolerant of trash on the grille and is more stable in its drivetrain. There is nothing about the FR9 engine that has slowed us down in terms of the ability to win a race or be competitive. We have had our share of top10 finishes and have three cars in the chase out of our four. It has not been a bad year, we just haven’t won yet.”

ANOTHER BLANK Not only is Ford winless in Cup, it is also searching for its first victory in the Nationwide Series also. Roush believes his teams found the source of their woes in the junior

Bobby Labonte talks with one of his TRG Racing crew members during practice for this year’s Daytona 500. TRG made a crew chief change late Tuesday. circuit last weekend at Nashville. The series is at Kentucky Speedway on Saturday. “We were very competitive last weekend at Nashville with our Nationwide car,” Roush said. “We had been missing something (wrong) in the suspension of the car all year and we found last week that there had been an unintended change made in some of the front suspension components. The problem that had been there primarily – the car not turning in the middle (of the turns) and loose off – went away for all of our drivers throughout the weekend. “I am sure we are on our way to re-establishing ourselves in that series. With Carl Edwards finishing second and Paul Menard finishing third at Nashville, with neither one getting into the cars for practice, is a good sign.”

FUEL MILEAGE MATTERS Fuel mileage could play a huge role at Michigan. Mark Martin is the defending champ in Sunday’s Cup race this weekend in light of Jimmie Johnson and Greg Biffle ran out of gas at the end. “We didn’t win that race (in 2009) just on fuel mileage,” Martin said. “Our car was amazing that day. And the fuelmileage game, I never win that. I always come up short. So winning like that, that was a surprise and it was so much fun. Three laps into the final run, I started saving fuel. We needed the points bad last year so we couldn’t risk it. I saw Jimmie run out. “And I knew the 16 was close, too. I just held back. When I took the white flag and still had fuel pressure, I just went for it. I saw the 16 run out on the backstretch, then

we ran out, too. Between that and having a battery going dead the whole race, it was so much to overcome.” Johnson, who led 279 of the 400 laps in the two Michigan races last year, also ran out while leading in August. “We know that track is a fuel mileage race track and we’re doing everything in our power to get better fuel mileage but I think with my driving style and with the horsepower we have built at Hendrick Motorsports, it’s just tough to just really get an extra lap, especially on a track that big,” Johnson said. “On a short track, it’s pretty easy to get a few laps but at Michigan it is impossible. Mark (Martin) was able to capitalize on (Greg) Biffle and I racing really hard.”

Memphis boasts strong field for final Open tuneup MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) — Lee Westwood, Rory McIlroy and Ian Poulter all are here for the first time looking for a final tuneup for the U.S. Open. Brian Gay is back ready to defend his title, trying to kick his own game into a new gear. The St. Jude Classic

starting Thursday features a strong field in the final event before the Open with seven of the world’s top 20 players on hand. The TPC Southwind course bears little resemblance to what golfers will face at Pebble Beach. Gay thanked Smith & Nephew for stepping in as

presenting sponsor, saying he hopes it’s the start of a long relationship. If not, this could be the final tournament despite this being the PGA Tour’s third-longest running event dating back to 1958.

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — The University of Nebraska board of regents is expected to discuss Friday whether the Cornhuskers should stay in the Big 12 or move to the Big Ten. NU regent Chuck Hassebrook said Wednesday that he expects conference affiliation will be added to the agenda for Friday’s previously scheduled meeting. Board bylaws allow new business to be added to the agenda until 24 hours before the meeting. “It’s a big deal,” Hassebrook said, “but it’s hard to comment on what it all means until we discuss it.” According to media reports, the Big 12 has given Nebraska and Missouri a Friday deadline to affirm their commitment to the league. The two schools are among the leading candidates should the Big Ten expand. Athletic director Tom Osborne said in a radio interview Tuesday night that a decision should come soon. “Hopefully we’ll get things put together in the next few days,” Osborne told the statewide Husker Sports Network without indicating Nebraska’s preference.

Colorado penalized for academics

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — The NCAA’s big boys are beating up on the smaller schools in the classroom, too. Only seven of the 137 teams sanctioned Wednesday for poor scores on the Academic Progress Rate come from BCS conferences. One squad, Portland State’s men’s basketball team, will be banned from next season’s NCAA tournament. Colorado and Syracuse were the only power conference schools to make the list in the three highest-profile sports — football or men’s and women’s basketball. The men’s basketball teams at both schools and the Colorado football team all were sanctioned for falling short of the NCAA’s Academic Progress Rate cutline of 925. The APR measures the classroom performance of every Division I team and is based on data collected from 2005-06 through 2008-09. Colorado will lose one scholarship in men’s basketball and up to four scholarships in football. The Buffaloes scored 920 in football and 897 in basketball. The Orange’s basketball team scored 912 and could lose up to two basketball scholarships if academically ineligible players leave school before next season.

GBI releases interviews in Roethlisberger case MILLEDGEVILLE, Ga. (AP) — The college student who accused Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger of sexually assaulting her said she didn’t try to fight him off because he appeared to anger easily. “I noticed throughout the night he kind of had like a short temper, like he would get really, like, defensive,” she told police in her second interview with them on March 5, about 12 hours after she said the assault took place. She didn’t elaborate further on what made her think the quarterback had a short temper. The accuser’s interview is among more than 50 audio and video recordings released Wednesday by the Georgia Bureau of Investigation. The prosecutor determined there wasn’t enough evidence to warrant criminal charges after the investigation concluded, and he said the woman ultimately asked him not to prosecute the quarterback. One of the new videos shows Roethlisberger smiling, giving people high-fives and pumping his fist at the club where the woman said she was assaulted. The 20-year-old accuser was interviewed twice by police — the first time shortly after she made the accusation early March 5 in the small college town of Milledgeville, about 80 miles southeast of Atlanta. The second interview was about 12 hours later at the Milledgeville police station. The woman sounded intoxicated when she spoke with Milledgeville

STEELERS DECLINE REACTION

–

PITTSBURGH (AP) — DVDs? What DVDs? That, generally, was the reaction of several Pittsburgh Steelers asked about more than 50 audio recordings and DVDs released Wednesday by the Georgia Bureau of Investigation from its investigation of quarterback Ben Roethlisberger. The release of the information drew little reaction at the Steelers’ minicamp Wednesday. Roethlisberger didn’t take questions and was escorted from the indoor training field on a rainy day by a team spokesman. Wide receiver Hines Ward spent more time talking about a rained-out charity softball game, and safety Troy Polamalu spoke mostly about returning from a season-ending knee injury. officer Jason Lopez in the first interview. Her words were slurred and she even says at one point, “Obviously, I’m drunk.” An audio recording of that interview was made. During the first interview, she said she repeatedly told Roethlisberger, “I really don’t think this is OK,” but couldn’t stop him from having sex with her in the bathroom of a bar. “I don’t know what I can ... do,” she said. “I’m a little girl and he’s a big boy.” The victim told police she is 5-foot-4 and weighs 145 pounds. Roethlisberger is listed at 6-5 and 241 pounds.

Bruce retires after 16 seasons ST. LOUIS (AP) — Wide receiver Isaac Bruce, whose four Pro Bowls firmly established him among the greatest players in Rams history, retired Wednesday with a message for a struggling franchise that has hit bottom: Be proud of who you are. “I’d would say, ’Watch your mouth,”’ Bruce said of advice he would offer the Rams. “Watch what you say about the team and the organization. And expect great things to happen.” The 37-year-old Bruce is retiring after 16 seasons in which he set virtually every franchise receiving record. He’s second in the NFL in career receiving yards with 15,208, tied for second in yards per catch (14.9), fifth in catches (1,024) and ninth in receiving touchdowns (91). He also helped the Rams win the Super Bowl in 2000. The Rams will honor Bruce by retiring his

No. 80 on Oct. 31 during a game against Carolina. He was drafted by the Los AnBruce geles Rams in 1994, the year before they moved to St. Louis. He came to a team that was among the worst in the NFL — a situation the current Rams, including No. 1 overall draft pick Sam Bradford — can relate to: St. Louis was 1-15 in 2009. Bruce only played on losing teams until 1999, when the arrival of Warner at quarterback, Marshall Faulk at running back and rookie Torry Holt as his counterpart at wide receiver helped to create the “Greatest Show on Turf.” The Rams went 13-3 and defeated the Tennessee Titans 23-16 in a dramatic Super Bowl, with Bruce scoring the go-ahead touchdown in the final 2 minutes.

Los Angeles Lakers guards Kobe Bryant (left) and Derek Fisher were all smiles after defeating Boston in Game 3 of the NBA Finals on Tuesday night.

Bryant, Fisher friends as well as teammates BOSTON (AP) — Kobe Bryant and Derek Fisher had a pretty productive relationship when they first came into the NBA together, winning three titles with the Los Angeles Lakers and forging a friendship that belied the differences in their personalities and their skills. “It’s not because our games are similar, it’s not because of talent similarities or any of that,” Fisher said Wednesday after the Lakers practiced for Game 4 of the NBA finals against the Boston Celtics. “It’s just that we’ve experienced a lot of good and bad things together. Because we’ve been through those fires, we’re just comfortable relying on each other, and I think he knows and I know that if anything in the world happened, if there was one person that would stand up and say, ’I’m here for you,’ you know, it would go both ways.” A tough and emotional point guard with a history of clutch performances,

Fisher made five baskets in the fourth quarter to lead the Lakers to a 91-84 victory over Boston on Tuesday night and a 2-1 lead in the best-of-seven NBA finals. His signature play this time wasn’t a long-distance heave — like the one he sank against San Antonio with 0.4 seconds left in 2004 — or a series of jumpers like those that turned things around in Game 4 of the finals against Orlando last year. Instead, Fisher helped clinch the victory over Boston when he followed through on a breakaway layup before being flattened by three Celtics — including 300-pound Glen “Big Baby” Davis and 6-foot-11 Kevin Garnett. Fisher, who’s 6-1 and 210 pounds, converted the three-point play to turn it into a seven-point game. “He’s very, very, very, very tough — mentally and physically,” Bryant said. “He doesn’t back down from anything or anyone.” Fisher played the first

eight years of his career with the Lakers, winning three titles in the Shaqand-Kobe era before signing with Golden State as a free agent in 2004. It was only then that Bryant appreciated what kind of friend and teammate he had. “Fish and I, we’ve always been close, though I think when he left we became even closer, as weird as that seems,” Bryant said. “Everything happens for a reason. It’s kind of good to see him kind of come full circle and be back here again.” Fisher was traded to Utah in 2006 and spent a year there, but when his daughter, Tatum, developed eye cancer he asked to be released so he could move to a major city where she could be treated. He said Wednesday that she’s doing “great”; she and her twin brother Drew will turn 4 this summer. “I’m hoping that I can bring them a big, gold trophy as a gift for their birthday,” Fisher said.

Johnson set to become Nets coach EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — A person familiar with the New Jersey Nets’ coaching search says Avery Johnson has agreed to coach the NBA’s worst team. Johnson is expected to be introduced on Thurs-

day, said the person who spoke to The Associated Press on Wednesday on the condition of anonymity because the team has yet to announce the deal. ESPN first reported Johnson’s hiring. The current ESPN ana-

lyst coached Dallas for three-plus seasons, going 194-70 in the regular season and 23-24 in the playoffs. He guided the Mavs to the NBA finals in 2006, but was fired after a firstround playoff series loss to New Orleans in 2008.

WINSTON-SALEM – David Coffey held WinstonSalem Post 55 to one-hit over seven innings as Post 87 romped 10-1 in American Legion baseball Wednesday night at Mount Tabor High School. Coffey gave up the only run as he, Aaron Blackman and Connor Scarborough combined on a two-hitter, helping the Junior HiToms improve to 8-3 and 7-1 in Area III North standings. Brock Hutchens enjoyed the biggest blow for the offense, lashing a grand slam home run in the eighth inning. Kevin Sanders went 3for-4, with 2 RBIs and a run scored. Victor Zecca was 3for-4 and scored two runs. Desean Anderson was 2-for-4 and scored once. Coffey, who improves to 3-0, struck out seven and walked five in seven innings. Blackman and Scarborough worked an inning each. Post 87 will face Thomasville/Davidson County Post 284 on Friday at Ledford Senior High.

Former HiToms drafted ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

THOMASVILLE – Nine former members of the Thomasville HiToms were picked between the first and 49th rounds of the 2010 Major League Baseball First-Year Player Draft. The 50-round event concluded Wednesday. The earliest HiTom alum selected was Asher Wojciechowski, who went 41st overall to Toronto in the compensation round prior to Round 2. Wojciechowski, a right-handed pitcher from The Citadel, briefly competed last summer for the HiToms. Other picks for the HiToms were catcher Blake Forsythe (second round, Mets), pitcher Pat Dean (third, Twins), first baseman Kyle Roller (eighth, Yankees), pitcher Aaron Barrett (ninth, Nationals), pitcher Thomas Girdwood (15th, Twins), pitcher Wade Broyles (40th, Rays), second baseman Wes Hobson (40th, Giants), and pitcher Jordan Propst (49th, Royals).

U.S./England referee likes to issue penalty cards IRENE, South Africa (AP) — Carlos Simon went through cards with the speed of a Las Vegas dealer at the 2006 World Cup. The Brazilian referee issued five yellows during Italy’s 2-0 first-round victory over Ghana, handing the first to Danielle de Rossi 10 minutes in. He gave out eight more in Spain’s 3-1 win over Tunisia, and added four yellows and a red to his total as Germany beat Sweden 2-0 in the second round. He’s been selected to officiate the big U.S.-England game at

this year’s World Cup on Saturday. Given an English team and an American side filled with Premier Leaguers, it could make for a match of attrition “A foul in England is a foul,” American goalkeeper Marcus Hahnemann said. “In another country, they’re wondering if it’s a yellow card or a red card.” The U.S. had its own cardfilled night at the last World Cup. In the 1-1 tie against Italy, the Americans went a man up when De Rossi was ejected by Uruguayan Jorge Larrionda in

the 28th minute for an elbow that split Brian McBride’s left cheek. Seventeen minutes later, the sides were evened when Pablo Mastroeni was ejected for a cleats-up tackle on Andrea Pirlo. American defender Eddie Pope was sent off two minutes into the second half for his second yellow, a tackle in which he got the ball first, then took down Alberto Gilardino. World Cup matches generally are called tighter than league games, especially those in the wild, wild west of England. “You go into a World Cup,

you always want to have a little bit of sense of what FIFA has now chosen to clamp down on,” American midfielder Michael Bradley said. “That will be something we think about.” Bradley, who plays for Borussia Moenchengladbach in Germany, missed last year’s Confederations Cup final against Brazil after getting a red card in the semifinal victory over Spain for a lunging tackle. Yet, he doesn’t want think about curbing the roughness too much. “Having a physical edge is

something that we bring on our best days and I think we need to look to have on Saturday,” he said. English forward Wayne Rooney will be playing his first World Cup match since his team’s penalty-kicks loss to Portugal in the 2006 quarterfinals. He got a red card that night for stomping on Ricardo Carvalho’s groin — with thenManchester United teammate Cristiano Ronaldo running over to Argentinian referee Horacio Elizondo to plead for Rooney’s dismissal.

Bernanke says recovery on track WASHINGTON (AP) — The European debt crisis is likely to have only a “modest” impact on the U.S. economic recovery as long as Wall Street stabilizes, Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke told Congress on Wednesday. Testifying before the House Budget Committee, Bernanke struck a more confident tone that the recovery will remain intact despite problems in Europe as well stubbornly high unemployment and a fragile housing market here at home. “The economy ... appears to be on track to continue to expand through this year and next,” Bernanke said. However, the pace of the expansion — 3.5 percent this year by the

Wholesale inventories, sales rise in April WASHINGTON (AP) — Inventories held by wholesalers rose for a fourth straight month in April while sales rose for a 13th consecutive time. Both gains were encouraging signs for a sustained economic recovery. Wholesale inventories increased 0.4 percent last month after a 0.7 percent gain in March, the Commerce Department said Wednesday. Sales increased 0.7 percent in April, helped by higher demand for autos, lumber, computers and electrical equipment.

Russia to double minimum vodka price MOSCOW (AP) — A Russian official says the government is considering more than doubling the minimum price of vodka in three years. Deputy Finance Minister Sergei Shatalov says vodka must not be cheap, and that the move is meant to help fill the government coffers as well as to combat alcohol abuse.

Oil rises on hopes of higher demand NEW YORK (AP) — Oil prices rose to near $75 a barrel Wednesday, after Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke said European debt problems should not have a major impact on the U.S. economy. Benchmark crude for July delivery rose $2.64 to $74.63 a barrel at midday on the New York Mercantile Exchange. The contract rose 55 cents to settle at $71.99 on Tuesday.

Fed’s estimate — won’t be strong enough to quickly bring relief to the 15 million Americans who are unemployed. The unemployment rate now at 9.7 percent would likely see only a “slow reduction,” Bernanke warned. Fears have grown in recent weeks that the recovery could be derailed. One worry is if Europe’s debt crisis turns into a broader financial contagion, crimping lending in the United States and around the globe. The situation has spooked investors, sending Wall Street into periodic nosedives. Another worry is that hiring in the United States by private companies could stall. That fear was stoked by a government report last Friday, show-

ing that job creation at private companies in May slowed sharply, with businesses adding only 41,000 new jobs, the fewest since the start of the year. However, Bernanke said signals suggest that the economy will keep on plodding ahead as massive government stimulus fades. Consumers and businesses have picked up the baton from the government and are spending sufficiently to keep the recovery on track, he said. Still, spending by consumers is much more subdued than in the early stages of past economic recoveries. That’s why economic growth is expected to be only modest this year, rather than blistering.

Report gives promising job outlook for NC MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

TRIAD — North Carolina is shaping up to have a healthy job market this summer, according to the Manpower Employment Outlook Survey released this week. Manpower, a Milwaukeebased staffing company, reported that 17percent of North Carolina companies interviewed plan to hire more employees between July and September. Five percent said they plan to reduce staffing levels. That gives the state a net employment outlook of 12 percent, which compares with a 10 percent net outlook that Manpower expects for the country as a whole. Manpower chopped the number of metro areas for which it releases individual reports from 201 to 100. Fayetteville didn’t make the cut.

“Our goal was to make it more nationally representative,” said Mary Ann Lasky, a spokeswoman for Manpower. That’s why statewide reports were added, she said. Of metro areas that fall entirely in North Carolina, and which are still individually reported by Manpower, Raleigh-Cary had the most auspicious outlook. Among companies surveyed in Raleigh-Cary, 19 percent said they planned to hire people during the quarter, 5 percent said they planned to reduce staff levels, 71 percent said they planned to maintain current levels and the rest didn’t know. That gives Raleigh-Cary a net employment outlook of 14 percent, according to Manpower. Behind that came Asheville with a 13 percent net outlook; Charlotte with 12 percent and Greensboro-High Point with 11 percent.

Mortgage application volume falls WASHINGTON (AP) — The number of customers applying for a mortgage to purchase a property fell to the lowest level in 13 years last week, a sign the housing market is struggling without government incentives. Purchase volume declined 5.7 percent and is at its lowest point since February 1997, the Mortgage Bankers Association said Wednesday. Overall mortgage application volume, which includes loans for purchases and refinancings, dropped by 12.2 percent during the week ending June 4, com-

pared with the previous week. Refinance volume tumbled 14.3 percent. “Purchase applications are now 35 percent below their level of four weeks ago, as homebuyers have not yet returned to the market following the expiration of the homebuyer tax credit at the end of April,” said Michael Fratantoni, MBA’s vice president of research and economics. New buyers were offered a credit worth up to $8,000, while current owners who bought and moved into another home could get one for up to $6,500.

Energy stocks puncture rally NEW YORK (AP) – The stock market had another late-day slide, this time because of fears that the Gulf oil spill will threaten BP’s dividend and perhaps land the company in bankruptcy court. The Dow Jones industrials, up about 125 points late Wednesday morning, closed down 41. Most selling came in the last hour, the third time in four days that stocks had a late-day drop. Investors got a “sell” signal from news reports that raised the possibility of worsening financial fallout from the oil spill. A group of about 30 U.S. lawmakers sent a letter to BP CEO Tony Hayward asking him to halt dividend payments and advertising until the leaking well is capped and the spill is cleaned up. Investors tend to sell any time a company’s dividend appears to be in jeopardy. BP is scheduled to make a $2.63 billion payout on June 21. And Fortune.com quoted an analyst as saying BP could be forced to seek bankruptcy protection within about a month. The worries about BP were enough to make investors shrug off reassuring words about the economy early in the day from Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke. BP fell 15.8 percent to a 14-year low and selling spread to other energy companies.

Companies urged to follow health law COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) – Advocates for the uninsured are urging some of Ohio’s biggest employers to follow a new state law that allows young adults to stay on their parents’ health insurance until they turn 28, even though the companies are exempt. The law, which takes effect July 1, makes Ohio one of the few states to exceed the extension to age 26 mandated by President Barack Obama’s health care overhaul. Young adults have one of the highest uninsured rates, often because they can’t find jobs or because employers don’t offer health coverage for entry-level positions. Ohio’s new benefit, while broad, won’t help children whose parents work at private, self-insured companies that pay their workers’ medical claims directly rather than buy insurance. These firms, including Procter & Gamble Co. and Honda Motor Co., fall outside state regulation. About 6.6 million Ohioans get health insurance through employer-based cov-

erage, and about half of those are with employers that self-insure. It’s disappointing that some of Ohio’s largest employers will not voluntarily extend coverage for young adults to age 28, said Cathy Levine, executive director of the Universal Health Care Action Network of Ohio. “We all benefit from having more young adults, who tend to be lowcost, in the insurance pool,” she said. Self-insured companies generally have multistate operations, and to offer health benefits in Ohio that aren’t available to employees and their children in other states could be very confusing and administratively difficult, said Carrie Haughawout, who tracks health care policy at the Ohio Chamber of Commerce. For now, companies such as the Cleveland Clinic, which has 28,000 employees on its self-insured health plan, are sticking with the federal regulation and will cover dependents up to age 26 only. Same with Eaton Corp., a large Clevelandbased company that makes hydraulics and electrical equipment.

German government rejects aid for GM’s Opel BERLIN (AP) – Germany on Wednesday rejected General Motors’ request for government aid for its Opel unit, saying the U.S. automaker had enough funds to pull its subsidiary through. The decision, coming just days after Germany announced a plan to cut public spending and reduce the deficit, denies GM of more than €1 billion ($1.2 billion) in loan guarantees. A committee that examines aid requests from a fund for companies hit by

the economic crisis failed to reach a decision on the case – putting the ruling in the hands of Economy Minister Rainer Bruederle, who turned it down. “I am optimistic that the future of the subsidiary (Opel) can function without government aid,” Bruedele said, adding that it was GM’s responsibility to see to it that its subsidiary is swiftly restructured. “I am convinced that GM has sufficient funds,” he said. Bruederle also sought to

quell suggestions that Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble may yet come up with funding for Adam Opel GmbH through his own ministry, citing the government’s new savings plan. “GM is naturally very disappointed as is Opel with this decision after such a very long process, and we have spent a lot of time answering many, many hundreds of questions, being reviewed by many committees,” Opel CEO Nick Reilly said.
