DAVIDSON COUNTY – Students in Davidson County Schools will see an increase in student parking fees for the 2010-11 school year. The Davidson County Board of Education last week approved a hike in student parking fees from $20 to $35 annually. The increase was suggested after Jay Temple, executive director of auxiliary services, reviewed other systems rates to find out that there was a ride range of parking fees among schools, said Meredith Palmer, the system’s community relations director. Because of Temple’s research, a “modest” increase was recommended, Palmer said. The increase is needed because of rising costs in maintaining parking lots, according to Palmer. Palmer said the parking fee for the system has remained steady for several years. In addition to the increase in parking fees, the school board tabled revisions to the cell phone policy. The revisions describe when cell phones can be used on buses. Under the revisions, cell phones are prohibited during the school day on yellow buses and activity buses operated within the instructional day. Palmer said permission could be granted for use on activity buses during extra-curricular activities, such as ball games. “Often times, parents feel safer if their students have a cell phone if they are traveling to an away ball game,” she said. “Sometimes children are returning home and the parents want to know if the bus will be on time or what time to meet the bus at the school and that kind of thing. Of course, safety is always our number one concern.” Under the revisions, a supervisor or coach could deem that cell phone use on an activity bus is a safety feature and request that all cell phones be shut off. The revisions were tabled because the school board wanted more time review them, Palmer said. The revisions are expected to be considered during the board of education’s June 30 meeting. dignasiak@hpe.com | 888-3657

HIGH POINT – Jennifer Bivins didn’t mince words when asked why she was at Sheraton Hills Pool early Sunday afternoon. “It’s hot,” said the mother of two children, who were cooling off in the pool as she relaxed in a chair next to her friend Blake Aldridge. Bivins and Aldridge, both of Wallburg, were at the pool with their children, beating the heat and curing their kids’ boredom. “It’s the perfect way to pass the day,” Aldridge said. Finding a pool or other cool spot may represent task No. 1 for folks in the Triad this week, as forecasters predict that highs will be at or above 90 at least through Saturday.
The high today could reach 93, with the high Tuesday at or around 90, said Ryan Ellis, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Raleigh. The only day this week that may offer some relief from the heat

Davidson opts out of contract for EMS site BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
DAVIDSON COUNTY – Davidson County commissioners have decided to back out of a contract on a piece of property for a new EMS base they agreed to purchase in April. Max Walser, chairman of the Davidson County Board of Commissioners, said the board decided to opt out of the contract because Winston-Salem consulting company GeoScience & Technology found the land unfit to support the base. He said a soil boring test found fill dirt and large amounts of wood chips on the land.
NEW TWIST: Antique complex to open at High Point Market. 1B
“The land would have been unsuitable for any structure,” Walser said. The property, located near Twin Brook Drive and N.C. 150 in the Arcadia community, was purchased by the county for $27,500. The EMS base was proposed to serve the Arcadia, Welcome, Midway and Clemmons communities. Walser said he was disappointed about the land not working out, but he said the decision was made for the best interest of the taxpayers. Walser said commissioners are considering other pieces of property, with one site looking “very promising.” He wouldn’t elaborate any further.
According to County Attorney Chuck Frye, the county will not be penalized for opting out of the contract because there was a clause in the contract that stated “the buyer may enter the property and conduct such testing including compaction testing and other testing to indicate the suitability of the site for construction as the buyer deems appropriate.” Frye said GeoScience & Technology’s study determined there was a “massive amount of wood buried at the site.” “Fortunately, we had the language where we can pull out,” Frye said. “Unfortunately, it was potentially a very good location.”
YOUR COMMUNITY. YOUR NEWSPAPER.
According to Doug Lowe, Davidson County Emergency Management Services director, county officials are looking for land for an EMS base in response to a fiveyear study that looked at base relocation as a way to improve response time. Commissioners conducted the study when the recognized the growing population in the county. The plan suggested that the county build EMS bases in the southern, western and northern parts of the county. Last year, county workers finished building a EMS base in Wallburg. dignasiak@hpe.com | 888-3657

NC House tries hand at freeing 911 fees for phones RALEIGH (AP) – Just like the pocket change saved daily in a jar, local emergency call centers have accumulated tens of millions of dollars from a charge inside every phone bill in North Carolina for their own dream purchases. The trouble is, according to local government officials and emergency response leaders, state law restricts too tightly what local 911 centers can purchase using the 70cent-per month subscriber fee placed on each landline and wireless phone in the state. The 911 service fee money can be used for phone equipment and system hardware, but not for equipment to dispatch emergency officials to the scene or office furniture. “Citizens expect when they pick up the phone to call 911 that someone’s going to show up at their door to help them,” said Kevin Leonard, a lobbyist for the North Carolina Association of County Commissioners. “The current statute does not that support that sort of policy.” But with more questions
raised about whether the fee is being wasted – more than $91 million sat in 125 local 911 center accounts a year ago – the General Assembly is poised to change the service fee law for the second time in four years. They hope it will lower cash balances held by the centers in part by expanding the kinds of projects on which the funds can be spent. As part of a compromise recommended by a House committee last week, 911 centers would get the flexibility the counties want, but they’ll have to give up some things in return. A state panel would change how the money is distributed to more closely follow the population the center covers and past expenses. Proceeds also could be used for statewide projects, and local centers would be required to meet operating standards in order to qualify for their share of funds. “We’re all paying the same rate, so we should all be receiving the same level of service,” said Richard Taylor, executive director of the North Carolina 911 Board,

Jun. 13--After Recio Miller was pulled away from a two-vehicle accident scene at the intersection of Bright Street and Queen Street Saturday, he was taken to Lenoir Memorial Hospital for treatment. Miller was driving a Faith Tabernacle United Holy Church van to Rev. Robbie Millard’s house shortly after 4 p.m. to help celebrate Millard’s daughter’s graduation from C.B. Aycock High School. The church van was filled with nine people -- both young and old - before it was involved in a serious collision with a Toyota Tacoma
store’s lumber and supplies. The bride says the store in Lake Forest is like a second home and her colleagues are like family. A regional manager says it’s only the second wedding in a Home Depot.

Lightning sparks fire at tank farm Authorities seize
200 pounds of pot
MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE
GREENSBORO – An early morning fire at a petroleum tank farm off Gallimore Dairy Road was quickly put down thanks to careful planning and first-responder teamwork, according to the Greensboro Fire Department. “There is nothing better than a good plan when a tremendous obstacle faces you,� Assistant Fire Chief David Douglas said. “And when that plan comes together.� A lightning strike ignited one of the 72 tanks at the farm, which is owned by Colonial Pipeline Company. Firefighters responded to a 911 call from employees at the tank farm and from motorists along Interstate 40 just before 1 a.m. and five and a half hours later, the fire was declared out. About 150 firefighters from Greensboro, High Point, Raleigh and Charlotte were involved in the operation, Douglas said, using nearly 2,000 gallons of specialized foam created to fight petroleum fires. Four firefighters were treated on the scene for heat exhaustion as they faced temperatures of over 100 degrees, but no one was seriously injured. Firefighters rotated off the blaze throughout the night on 15 to 20 minute intervals. About 20 police officers from the Greensboro Po-
LINCOLTON (AP) – North Carolina police have seized more than 200 pounds of marijuana and charged four people with drug trafficking. The Charlotte Observer reported that the drugs seized Friday by Alcohol Law Enforcement Division agents in Lincolnton had an estimated value of $168,000. Police had received a complaint of drug sales at a hotel and motel that were not identified. Agents say they found
110 pounds of pot when they pulled over a van driven by 28-year-old Ninfa Hinojosa of Athens, Ga. A search of a home connected to the van led to another 100 pounds. Other charged in the case were 23-year-old Jose Jesus Ramirez, 20year-old Ricardo Carrillo Polanco and 24-year-old Modesto Marquez Medina. All are residents of Lincolnton, which is about 40 miles northwest of Charlotte.

Assistant Chief Douglas with the Greensboro Fire Department briefs the media early Sunday morning on firefighters’ progress battling the fire at the gas tank farm off Galimore Dairy Road early Sunday morning. this very type of event,� Grayson said. Douglas added that because of the fire began at early Sunday morning when businesses were closed and traffic at a minimum, the operation was able to happen with clockwork precision, with responders from the fire, EMS and police departments concentrating on the emergency. “If you could script out when you’d want to have this fire, I don’t know you could pick a better day, date or time,� Douglas said.
Even though the fire department was contending with three other structure fires brought on by Saturday night’s storm, Douglas said they were able to handle it. “We were stretched to the max, but we didn’t break,� Douglas said. At a Sunday morning press conference, Colonial Pipeline’s Director of Operations Darren Pruitt said the fire was expected to have no environmental impact and shouldn’t affect local gas prices or availability.

Evolution or resolution? Drive around, see Visiting a new-found friend in a familiar early childhood community caused me to culturally vomit from shock and dismay because what I saw contrasted greatly with what I remembered, even though the streets still were there with little few changes. However, the houses and the yards were different – there were those older ones I could recall and there were the recently constructed dwellings. The original ones stood as though waiting for the inevitable wrecking ball or time while the newer houses appeared lost and out of place. Through time, evolution’s reality dangles two puzzling mysteries – “what it is,” and/or, what it shouldn’t be. What it is, ask what do I see, and what it shouldn’t be, is man’s denial. Relishing memories of a bygone day or time while simultaneously staring at the present, I was forced to ask the familiar but seldom answered question, what happened! Accidentally contrasting the two without prior warning often reveals the raw truth of evolution, or cruelty of inconsiderate resolution. We like to think of evolution as uncontrolled and revealing while proudly claiming resolution to be our finest achievement. If accurate, then evolution might sometimes be viewed as an evasive cruel hoax or accident, and resolution, a shameful yet denied calculation. For your own personal assessment and satisfaction, observe your surrounding community, your local neighborhood or even your family to consider what was unavoidable or what was contrived – what was uncontrolled or what was controlled and possibly intended. Make no mistake about it, the weakest link characterizes the strength of a chain and likewise, dilapidated neighborhoods characterize a community. High Point is no exception – drive around and you be the judge! AL CAMPBELL High Point

Spirit of diversity demands more of Thomas H
ere’s some bitter irony for you. Back in April, I received the Helen Thomas Spirit of Diversity award. Yes, diversity. And yes, Helen Thomas, the legendary White House correspondent who recently nuked her career – and legacy – by telling a rabbi, following a Jewish heritage ceremony at the White House, no less, that the Jews of Israel should, in effect, go back where they came from. Life sure takes some funny bounces. Two months ago, I was honored to receive an award in the name of a woman who has asked combative questions of every president since Kennedy. Two months later, receiving a Helen Thomas award in the spirit of diversity feels not unlike receiving a Kim Jong Il award in the spirit of diplomacy. I sat in that ceremony on the campus of her alma mater, Wayne State University, listening as speakers lauded Thomas, who is of Lebanese heritage, as a path maker for women and Arabs. When it was my turn to speak, I recounted how I saw her at an office party once and how I, who don’t get starstruck, who have
interviewed Stevie Wonder, Tony Bennett and Barack Obama, could not bring myself to introduce myself. It is – and the fact that I am the OPINION hundredth person to say this makes it no Leonard less true – sad to see Pitts such a storied ca■■■ reer end in rubble. But given the mess she made, given the tidal wave of opprobrium that washed over her, last week’s decision to retire was pretty much the only option left. And how bizarre is it that Thomas, who asked so many tough questions over the years, was tripped up by an absolute softball. “Any comments on Israel?” asked Rabbi David Nesenoff, in the video that is now all over the Internet. “Tell them to get the hell out of Palestine,” said Thomas. A moment later, Nesenoff asked where the Jews should go. “They should go home,” she said. “Poland, Germany.” It was a stunningly obtuse remark, given that the Jews were
driven out of those nations seven decades ago by history’s greatest act of mass murder. When I was in Poland five years ago, it was still possible to walk on cobblestones made of grave markers looted from Jewish cemeteries and to see graffiti that read, JUDEN RAUS! Jews, out! All that said, there is a temptation to let the 89-year-old legend slide, to give her what I will call the old-person pass. After all, which of us doesn’t have an Uncle Clint or Aunt Molly who still uses language or expresses opinions that were perfectly respectable back in 1935 but reprehensible today? You just shine it on. You don’t even bother correcting them anymore. But Uncle Clint and Aunt Molly are usually removed from the workaday world. At the very least, they do not occupy the national stage. For many years now, elder Americans have quite rightly resisted being shoved out of that workaday world just because they reached some arbitrary age. But the corollary is that you don’t get an exemption for that age, don’t get to use it as a get-out-of-jail-free

card, when you foul up. Besides, we are told by Thomas’ peers in the White House press corps that there is nothing new about the anti-Semitism she displayed. To the contrary, it was apparently very well known to her colleagues. As Jonah Goldberg of the National Review Online told Washington Post media critic Howard Kurtz, “She’s always said crazy stuff.” So apparently, she’s already received the old-person pass. And the icon-of-journalism pass too, no doubt. But if you consider bigotry a cancer of the human spirit, then at some point, you have to call people on their garbage. Even when they are old. Even when they are beloved. Even when they are legendary. The spirit of diversity demands no less.

Karzai gives OK to crackdown in Kandahar KANDAHAR, Afghanistan – President Hamid Karzai gave the green light to a major security crackdown in the Taliban birthplace of Kandahar on Sunday, assuring residents the operation was aimed at battling corruption and bad government as much as insurgents. Hundreds of tribal and religious leaders, sitting cross-legged in a steamy conference hall, publicly endorsed the plan.
In boost for Hamas, top diplomat visits Gaza GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip – The Arab world’s top diplomat declared support Sunday for the people of blockaded Gaza in his first visit to the Palestinian territory since Hamas violently seized control of it three years ago. The visit was latest sign that Israel’s deadly raid on a flotilla trying to break the blockade of Gaza has eased the diplomatic isolation of the Islamic militant group. Arab League chief Amr Moussa’s visit to Gaza is part of an international push to end the blockade.
Egyptians protesting police brutality beaten CAIRO – Egyptian security forces hit protesters and knocked some to the ground before rounding dozens up at a demonstration Sunday against a police beating that killed a young man a week ago. The protesters were venting Egyptian anger over the death of 28-year-old Khaled Said in the port city of Alexandria on June 6. Relatives, at least one witness and human rights groups say police beat him to death and pictures of his bloody, disfigured face have been circulating on the Internet.
Van der Sloot told police thief killed woman LIMA, Peru – Joran van der Sloot told police in Chile it was an unidentified robber who beat a young woman to death in his hotel room, a killing for which the Dutchman has been charged with murder in Peru. Peruvian police say Van der Sloot, long suspected in the 2005 disappearance of U.S. teen Natalee Holloway, has confessed to killing 21-year-old business student Stephany Flores on May 30 after they met playing poker.
OSH, Kyrgyzstan (AP) – Mobs of rioters slaughtered Uzbeks and burned their homes and businesses in Kyrgyzstan’s worst ethnic violence in decades, sending more than 75,000 members of the ethnic minority fleeing the country in attacks that appeared aimed at undermining the Central Asian nation’s new interim government. More than 100 people were killed in southern Kyrgyzstan and more than 1,200 wounded in days of attacks, according to government estimates Sunday. The International Committee of the Red Cross said its delegates witnessed about 100 bodies being buried in just one cemetery, and noted the official toll is unlikely to include bodies still lying in the streets. Fires set by rioters raged across Osh, the secondlargest city in Kyrgyzstan, as triumphant crowds of Kyrgyz men took control. Police or military troops were nowhere to be seen in the city of 250,000, where

Gunmen storm Iraq’s central bank; 26 killed BAGHDAD (AP) – Insurgents wearing military uniforms stormed Iraq’s central bank Sunday during an apparent robbery attempt, battling security forces in a three-hour standoff after bombs exploded nearby in a coordinated daylight attack that left as many as 26 people dead. The assault on Iraq’s top financial institution stoked fears that insurgents are taking advantage of political deadlock
after inconclusive March 7 elections to try to derail security gains as the U.S. prepares to withdraw. The 325-member parliament was due to convene today, but analysts have said agreement on a new government could still be months away. Iraqi military spokesman Maj. Gen. Qassim al-Moussawi blamed the attack on al-Qaida in Iraq but said no money had been stolen from the bank.

Explosions kill 5, wound 75 at Kenya rally NAIROBI, Kenya – Two explosions ripped through a park in Kenya’s capital during a packed political rally late Sunday, killing five people and wounding 75, officials said. The rally was held to protest a draft constitution the country will vote on in August. The country’s president and prime minister support it, but several prominent political leaders do not. Prime Minister Raila Odinga said officials don’t yet know the cause of the blasts.
Colombian soldiers free long-held rebel hostages BOGOTA, Colombia – Soldiers on Sunday freed two high-ranking police officers who were among Colombia’s longest-held rebel captives in a raid in southern jungles, President Alvaro Uribe announced. Both Gen. Luis Mendieta and Col. Enrique Murillo were captured by the leftist Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, or FARC, in the November 1998 siege of the remote eastern provincial capital of Mitu.
Swiss man leaves Libya as nations end dispute GENEVA – Libya said Sunday that Switzerland has paid $1.5 million for mistreating Moammar Gadhafi’s son during his arrest there in 2008, and a Swiss citizen who had been held in Tripoli left for home as the countries ended a two-year diplomatic row. The two nations struck a deal to end a dispute that began with the two-day detention of Hannibal Gadhafi and his wife for allegedly beating their servants in a Swiss hotel.
Separatist party wins big in Belgian election BRUSSELS – A separatist party that advocates independence for the Dutch-speaking region of Belgium, leaving the country’s Francophones to fend for themselves, scored an unprecedented win in Sunday’s general election. Final results gave the Dutch-speaking New Flemish Alliance – a fringe factor until now – 27 of the 150 legislative seats, up 19 from the 2007 vote. ENTERPRISE NEWS SERVICE REPORTS

PHOENIX – Sheriff’s deputies raided two Sizzler steak house restaurants in Phoenix on Saturday, arresting nine employees who are suspected of being illegal immigrants and using fraudulent documents to get jobs. The raids were part of a yearlong investigation into whether the operators of the two Sizzler locations broke a civil law by knowingly hiring illegal immigrants, Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office Lt. Brian Lee said in a statement.

WASHINGTON (AP) – President Barack Obama demanded that BP set up a compensation fund for the oil-tainted Gulf Coast and prepared for his first Oval Office address to the nation as he tried to wrest control of the environmental disaster threatening to overwhelm his administration. White House officials announced the steps Sunday as Obama prepared for his fourth visit to the tortured Gulf. They came at a pivotal moment in the catastrophe, with the enormity of the oil spill in sharper focus from more accurate measurements and no end in sight until relief wells are completed in August. After returning Tuesday from a trip to Alabama, Mississippi and Florida, he will deliver a prime-time address from the Oval Office. It will be the first time he has used that most presidential of settings as a backdrop, underscoring the urgency of the moment.

Official: Oil leak hasn’t reached Great Salt Lake SALT LAKE CITY (AP) – Emergency workers believe they have stopped a 21,000-gallon oil leak from reaching the Great Salt Lake, one of the West’s most important inland water bodies for migratory birds that use it as a place to rest, eat and breed. But the spill has taken a toll on wildlife at area creeks and ponds, coating about 300 birds with oil and possibly threatening an endangered fish. The leak began Friday night when an underground Chevron Corp. pipeline in the mountains near the University of Utah broke. The breach sent oil into a creek that flows through neighborhoods, into a popular Salt Lake City park, and ultimately into the Jordan River, which flows into the Great Salt Lake.

Antique center to open in fall BY PAM HAYNES ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
HIGH POINT – An antique showroom complex opening at the fall High Point Market could add a creative twist to the furniture trade show that is known for debuting case good products. The Antique and Design Center of High Point will open in a 50,000 square foot space in the former Maitland-Smith showroom at 229 W. Russell Ave. on Oct. 15, the day before the furniture market officially opens. Approximately 50 antique dealers have signed up to exhibit during market in the space, which is about 97 percent leased, said Karen Luisana, managing director of the showroom. Luisana is an interior designer and a veteran antique dealer with more than 20 years of experi-

She said the real vision of the antique center, however, came from Jerry Stoffers, owner of California-based Arte De Mexico, who bought the building. Arte De Mexico has a showroom in Market Square. “He’s been an antique lover his whole life,” Lui-
sana said about Stoffers. “When he walked through the building, the idea just came to him. We see a need in High Point for this.” Several companies sell antiques in their showrooms during the furniture market, but those companies are spread out
across the showroom district, Luisana said. “I’ve had so many people tell me over the years how exhausting it is trying to antique shop (at market),” she said. “Everyone I’ve talked to is enthused that we’ll have one center in a standalone building on one floor.”
Antique Persian rugs, lamps, furniture and artwork will be some of the available items, and the center will target interior designers, she said. Some new items made out of petrified or refurbished wood also will be available. A package and shipping station will be on site. The showroom has a parking lot that will be open for shoppers. Luisana said she hopes the antique complex will do for the furniture market what an antique piece can do for a room. “When you have rooms that don’t have antiques in them, it gets a little cold,” she said. “You need something with history or intrinsic value. It validates an interior to have a few antiques mixed in.” phaynes@hpe.com | 888-3617

ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT
GUILFORD COUNTY — A year-old Triad law enforcement aviation project has brought national recognition to the county. The Guilford County Sheriff’s Office is a “flagship agency” for the use of small aircraft in law enforcement and will be honored by the Airborne Law Enforcement Association during the association’s July 14-17 conference in Tempe, Ariz. The agency leads a task force that flies a 2006 Sky Arrow 600 sport airplane to conduct drug searches and locate missing persons, among other missions. The Sheriff’s Association of Texas owns the airplane through a federal National Law Enforcement and Corrections Technology Center program. Darian Williams, a technology specialist for the Small, Rural, Tribal and Border Regional Center’s Aviation Technology Program, said the sheriff’s office is a “flagship agency.” “Agencies participating in our program are required to submit a report each time the aircraft is used, and it’s not uncommon to receive three or four reports a week from Guilford County,” Williams said. Guilford deputies fly the aircraft for partner agencies who don’t have trained pilots. Sheriff BJ Barnes said residents have benefited from the department’s use of the plane. “Our plane has enabled us to make better drug cases, to identify and follow suspects who have committed or are about to commit crimes,” Barnes said. “We have utilized it on searches for missing and lost persons and we have used it to patrol areas that normal vehicles would have difficulty getting to.” Partner agencies are Alamance County, Davidson County, Forsyth County and Randolph and Rockingham counties. “It’s a tool that’s made a difference in Guilford County,” Barnes said.

Agencies team up to cut prescription costs BY JORDAN HOWSE ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
DAVIDSON COUNTY – Many people have trouble getting their prescription drugs because of higher costs and less medical coverage. United Way of Davidson County hopes a new partnership will make that process easier. The United Way has partnered with FamilyWize Partnership to offer free prescription drug discount cards. Along with 800 other United Way organizations across the country, the discount card is provided to families without health insurance or who need medicine not covered by an insurance plan. Families can save as much as 30 percent on the cost of prescription medication. The United Way of Davidson County is distributing cards to the 31 human service agencies that receive funding from United Way and to other so-
cial service organizations in Davidson County. The card also can be printed from the FamilyWize Web site, www. familywize.org. There are no age, income or usage restrictions for the card. Card holders can use it as many times as they would like and there is no waiting to get the card. The cost of the prescription will be the discount price with the FamilyWize card or the pharmacy’s usual and customary retail price, whichever is lower. “Too many people have insufficient coverage, no prescription coverage, or need medications not covered by their insurance, Medicare, Medicaid, or VA benefits,” said Lee Jessup, president of the United Way of Davidson County. Jessup said 55,000 pharmacies nationwide agreed voluntarily to accept the FamilyWize Partnership discount cards. Dan and Susan Barnes es-

They had heard of families in the area who were having trouble paying for the medicine they needed. “We work to reduce the cost of medicine for children, families and individuals by $100 million. We believe that stronger, healthier and happier people make healthier, better communities and a stronger, gentler nation,” Barnes said. They invited local and national companies to provide free assistance to people who can’t afford their medications. Now, more than 25,000 organizations, agencies, pharmacies and individuals have joined together to reduce the cost of medicine. editor@hpe.com | 888-3537

Funeral & Cremation Service Since 1897
CAMDEN (AP) – Jeff Leitch was on the hunt. Carrying a chain saw, he carefully trudged through a cleared-out swamp near South Mills. After trekking about a quarter mile, he spotted a lone, leaning tree with a nice-size burl, a roundish wood growth. It would be perfect for his next furniture creation. “I want something that looks different,� Leitch said. “Until you cut it, you never know what it’s going to look like.� Leitch, 47, is the creator of Swamp Loggers Furniture, an avenue for artistic expression and extra money. Logging in swamps is an old industry in Camden County. He uses what’s left over. “I’m basically walking into a junkyard of trees and coming out with something beautiful,� he said. Leitch has furniture for sale in front of a country store at the intersection of U.S. 158 and N.C. 343 in Camden. Tables, benches and chairs line up where the old gas pumps used to be. A tabletop cut from a cedar burl and base would sell for about $300. Leitch made a bed frame and sold it for $75. Similar bed frames on the Internet sell for $3,000, he said. Every piece is unique. “There will not be another one just like that anywhere else in the world,� he said.
Pilot injured in plane crash WILMINGTON (AP) – A North Carolina official says a 72-year-old man has been injured when a small plane crashed in a parking lot near a small airstrip. New Hanover County sheriff’s Cpl. J.J. Brewer said in a news release that pilot Ted G. Stone was taken to a local hospital with a broken leg and several cuts. No one else was injured in the crash.

Fishy election win sparks probe S. Guilford High COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) – With South Carolina’s sordid history of dirty politics, it’s no wonder conspiracy theories abound about an unknown, unemployed military veteran winning the Democratic nomination for U.S. Senate. Perhaps the most surprising element of Alvin Greene’s victory so far is that nothing yet sufficiently explains how it happened. Greene stunned the state with his win Tuesday over a four-term former lawmaker considered the presumptive Democratic nominee. The 32year-old candidate who lives with his father and faces a felony charge will challenge Republican juggernaut U.S. Sen. Jim DeMint in the fall. On Sunday, President Barack Obama’s senior adviser David Axelrod told NBC’s “Meet the Press” Greene doesn’t appear to be a legitimate candidate. Axelrod said South Carolina Democrats deserve a strong, credible candidate and it’s a big mystery how Greene won. And U.S. House Majority Whip Jim Clyburn, South Carolina’s leading Democrat, told CNN’s “State of the Union” he knew something was wrong in the Democratic primary for the Senate seat by watching the votes come in. “I know a Democratic pattern, I know a Republican pattern, and I saw in the Democratic primary elephant dung all over the place,” Clyburn said. Clyburn said Greene was planted in the race by someone. State Democratic Party Chairman Carol Fowler has called for an investigation. That appears to be on the way. Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington said Sunday it

Man on the wagon nags his friends to join him ear Abby: A close friend in our social group, “Reed,” has been in and out of rehab for alcohol problems. We have all been there to offer moral support anytime we can – including him in golf outings, barbecues, etc. The problem is he has started lecturing us about “the dangers of drinking.” We are social drinkers and professional people. Some of us don’t drink; others are “on call” and can’t. So it isn’t like we’re lying around getting drunk as skunks. Reed has no family here. We love him dearly and don’t want to exclude him. But he’s starting to make people feel uncomfortable. How should we handle this? – No Lectures, Please, in Florida

ment. If you are not sure who is at your door, ask for the person’s picture identifiADVICE cation, such as a Dear driver’s Abby license. ■■■ By now, everyone should have received a census form in the mail. The deadline was very important. Once the deadline passed, the addresses of all the non-respondents were turned over to us: the non-response follow-up team. In order to prevent someone from being counted twice, once the non- response followup list was compiled, the rest of the forms out there were no longer collected or counted. If you mailed in your census questionnaire, but a census worker still shows up at your door, it is because your questionnaire was not received in time. So please bear with your enumerator because he or she has to interview you again. Please take a few minutes to make your voice heard because your participation is important. – Your Census Worker Dear Census Worker: I’m glad to help spread the word. Readers, taking the time to participate in the census is not only important, but it’s also to your advantage. The census is how your representation in Congress is determined. And in addition, the census is used to determine how
federal funds will be used to build hospitals, schools and highways in your community. And by the way, the census is mandated by the U.S. Constitution and has been conducted every 10 years since 1790! Dear Abby: My wife and I went out to dinner with another couple. After finishing our meal, I offered our friend, “Elaine,” a piece of gum. I handed her the box so she could remove the piece herself. When she returned the box she said she had taken two pieces. I told her it wasn’t right as I had offered her only one piece, which I believe is the correct serving. Elaine claimed I had no right to dictate her serving size. Was she right for “chewing me out” over this? – More Than I Can Swallow, Wayne, N.J. Dear More: After reading your letter, I took a random poll among my staff. Of those who had chewing gum with them, two-thirds had packages that indicated a serving is two pieces, while the rest read that a serving is only one piece. I don’t think Elaine was wrong to defend herself after you attacked her, and before criticizing, you should have asked yourself if it was worth possibly gumming up a friendship.

Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

uly Fourth has always been a holiday filled with great traditions. While celebrating the independence of our great nation, people like to fire up grills to cook hamburgers and hot dogs, and, as the sun disappears, they set off fireworks. Unfortunately, fireworks carry a high risk of injury and fire damage. On Independence Day fireworks typically cause more outside fires than all other FIREHOUSE causes of CHAT outside fires comLee bined. AcKnight cording to ■■■ a U.S. Fire Administration report for 2002, 23,200 fires were started by fireworks in the United States, resulting in $35 million in damage. Approximately 15 people die each year from fires and fireworks-related injuries. Another sobering statistic is 9,300 fireworks-related injuries, with 45 percent of the injured younger than age 15. Parents, sparklers burn as hot as 1,200 degrees and cause hundreds of injuries each year. It is not my intention to take the fun out of this great holiday, but the fact is that every one of the fires, injuries and deaths in 2002 were preventable, and every fire, injury and death caused by fireworks in 2010 could be avoided. I can only hope that those who plan to use fireworks will let common sense prevail and allow only responsible adults to handle fireworks. If you plan on lighting up the night sky, please remember the following tips: Do not aim fireworks at people or buildings. Place fireworks on a paved surface away from dry grass and wooded areas. Never alter fireworks or approach fireworks that have malfunctioned. Keep a bucket of water or hose nearby in case of emergencies. Always read the directions. Every state has different laws when it comes to fireworks. In North Carolina fireworks that are allowed include sparklers, fountains and novelty fireworks that do not explode. Fireworks that are illegal include firecrackers, Roman candles, spinners, mortars, bottle rockets and any pyrotechnic that is intended to spin, leave the ground or fly through the air. I want everyone to have a fun-filled Fourth of July. I only ask that you not ignore safety and use a good dose of common sense when using fireworks so everyone will have a safe holiday. 24/7/365: You call; we respond.

Secondary high blood pressure usually curable D
ear Dr. Donohue: About a year ago, I was told I had high blood pressure, and ever since, I have taken medicine for it. At first it was one drug; then two; now I am on three. These medicines are making me groggy. Still my blood pressure is high. I am only 32. No one else in my family has high blood pressure. I am on a low-salt diet. I exercise regularly and am on the thin side. I have never smoked. What’s going on with me? – R.B.

Thirty-two is a young age for high blood pressure. Furthermore, you’re doing all the right things, but your pressure stays elevated. Three medicines don’t bring your pressure down. You could have secondary hypertension (high blood pressure). Most high blood pressure is essential hypertension. “Essential” here doesn’t mean necessary. It means that the high pressure is unexplainable. Much is known about what’s happening, but the basic cause is still in the dark. Secondary hypertension indicates that the rise in pressure is due to a definite and separate disorder that’s causing the pressure rise. Examples

are tumors of the adrenal gland, all sorts of kidney diseases, narrowing of one HEALTH kidney’s artery, Dr. Paul Cushing’s Donohue disease (an ■■■ endocrine hormone disorder) and a kink of the aorta (coarctation). If the secondary cause can be eliminated, as it often can, then the blood pressure returns to normal, and medicines are no longer needed. Your profile suggests secondary hypertension. Discuss this with your doctor. If the doctor believes a search is justified, then looking for secondary causes could explain many of the peculiarities in your story – young age of onset and blood pressure that’s resistant to drugs. Dear Dr. Donohue: Last month I delivered my third and last child. During this pregnancy, I developed diabetes. The doctor thought I would have to take insulin, but I didn’t. I closely followed the diet given to me. What are my chances of coming down with permanent diabetes? – S.M.
Gestational diabetes – diabetes that occurs during pregnancy and leaves after delivery – happens to as many as 5 percent of pregnant women. The hormones of pregnancy upset sugar balance. Most women can cope with this, but some cannot adjust their insulin production, and their blood sugar stays elevated. A constantly elevated blood sugar leads to very large babies. Often, a Cesarean section has to be performed to deliver the baby. An untreated mother can come down with high blood pressure and protein loss in the urine. Insulin is prescribed for gestational diabetes if diet doesn’t bring sugar down to the normal range. Your chances for developing diabetes can be greatly lessened if you stay on the slim side. An obese woman who has had gestational diabetes has a 50 percent to 75 percent chance of coming down with diabetes. A woman of normal weight has less than a 25 percent chance. DR. DONOHUE regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but he will incorporate them in his column whenever possible.

Kate fights on Brother’s bone marrow gives 5-year-old a new chance at life BY JIMMY TOMLIN ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
N
ow that 5-year-old Kate Thornton has her big brother’s bone marrow in her body, the family jokes about the implications of that. “We kid her and say, ‘Oh no, you’re not gonna start acting like your brother, are you?’” says Susan Thornton, Kate’s mom. But even if Kate did start acting like 11-year-old Jarod, the family wouldn’t complain. After all, that’s a small price to pay for what Jarod has given his little sister – a new chance at life. Nearly four weeks ago, Kate – who has battled acute lymphoblastic leukemia since August 2008 – received a life-saving bone marrow transplant, with Jarod as her perfectly matched donor. Doctors at Duke University Medical Center performed the transplant on May 18, and Kate engrafted on May 29. “‘Engrafted’ means Kate’s

BLOOD DRIVE...

Kate Thornton is the poster child for a blood drive being held Tuesday, from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m., at Showplace, 211 E. Commerce Ave. The goal is 415 pints, and American Red Cross officials stress that the need for blood donors
ineffective against the cancer. That’s when doctors recommended an experimental drug they said could be Kate’s last hope, an Italian drug combination Susan jokingly refers to as “Italian kryptonite.” If that drug combination could get Kate’s cancer in remission, she would be eligible for the bone marrow transplant, a procedure that offered even more hope when Jarod was found to be a perfect match. Since the transplant, Kate has had a few bumps in the road – digestive problems, breathing difficulties, high blood pressure, nausea and pain – but nothing her doctors didn’t expect to happen, according to Susan.
is especially critical during the summer months. Appointments are strongly recommended and can be made by calling the High Point-Thomasville chapter of the American Red Cross at 8859121. Kate’s still at the hospital full time, but the family is hopeful she’ll be well enough to transition to an apartment near the hospital this week. In the meantime, she spends most of the time resting in her hospital room, though she occasionally gets up to do some arts and crafts activities. If Kate continues to improve, she should be able to return to the family’s home in Thomasville by late August, Susan says. Although Kate is obviously tired and not yet feeling her best, Susan says her daughter has remained a real trouper. “She says she wants to go home,” Susan says. “This has been a big transition for her,

moving to a new city and getting used to a new routine, but she’s still got that fighting spirit in her. She knows what she wants, and even when she’s so sick she can’t pick her head up, she can still articulate that.” And, Susan adds, Kate still encourages visitors to her room to give blood if they can. “She’s had six packed red blood cell transfusions and 11 platelet transfusions in the last few weeks, so she knows how important it is for people to give blood,” Susan says. Kate is the poster child for a major blood drive being held Tuesday at Showplace. The drive takes on added significance not only because blood is typically in short supply during the summer months, but also because the Carolinas Blood Service Region has just issued an urgent appeal for Type O negative blood, which has dropped to critical levels. For an appointment or more information, contact the High Point-Thomasville chapter of the American Red Cross. jtomlin@hpe.com | 888-3579
National HIV Testing Day is June 27. This annual observance is a reminder of the importance of routine screening for HIV, the virus that causes AIDS. The Guilford County Department of Public Health is encouraging residents to take an important step towards protecting their own health and the health of their loved ones by getting tested for HIV. This year, a network of local HIV organizations has joined forces to bring the community an event called “Be Safe 2010: National HIV Testing Day.” “Be Safe 2010” will be held June 27 from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. at Festival Park, 200 N. Davie St. in Greensboro. It will feature free and confidential HIV testing, food, awareness activities, entertainment and a guest appearance by Miss North Carolina International Kristie Tobias. For more information about this event, call (336) 641-7777. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommend routine annual testing for all persons ages 13 to 64. Knowing your HIV status is more important than ever. About 21 percent of the over 1.1 million individuals living with HIV in the United States today are unaware of their positive status. For more information on National HIV Testing Day, visit www.hhs.gov/ aidsawareness days/days/test ing/index.html.

Advice is like kissing – it’s pleasant and costs nothing – and it’s almost as popular, especially at the bridge table. North’s leap to four spades, showing a weak, shapely hand, shut out everyone. When West led the queen of hearts, South took dummy’s king and led a diamond. West won with the ace and led the king and a low club. South ruffed in dummy, ruffed a diamond high, led a trump to dummy and ruffed a diamond high. He drew trumps with the Q-J and ran the diamonds. Making five. “Lead a trump to your hand at Trick Two and pitch dummy’s club on your ace of hearts,” North advised.
GREEDY South should have told his partner to kiss off. As the cards lay, South could kiss his contract goodbye if he got greedy and tried to make two overtricks. East would ruff South’s ace of hearts and lead his last trump. South could then start the diamonds but would be an entry short to set up and cash dummy’s long diamonds. He would take only seven trump tricks and one heart in all.
HOROSCOPE
CROSSWORD
Monday, June 14, 2010 CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Daryl Sabara, 18; Diablo Cody, 32; Boy George, 49; Donald Trump, 64 HAPPY BIRTHDAY: Once you revitalize some of your enthusiasm for the things you used to enjoy, you will find the success you are looking for. Think outside the box, let your creative imagination take over and you will end up in a place that is not only desirable but one that gives you much to look forward to. This is a time to perfect and implement your skills. Your numbers are 2, 7, 13, 24, 28, 39, 47 ARIES (March 21-April 19): Getting into arguments because you are feeling emotionally vulnerable will not help your current situation. Stay calm and be gracious and complimentary. Don’t let changes at home stress you out. ★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You have to know where you are heading emotionally, mentally and physically before you start out. Taking part in an activity that requires skill will help you channel your energy properly and ease any stress you might be feeling. Love is on the rise. ★★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Emotions will take over conversations that involve love relationships, leading to arguments if you don’t choose your words wisely. Be honest about your current status. You’ll be questioned based on what you say and what you do. ★★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): Emotions will be difficult to control and sharing your opinion will probably lead to trouble. Limitations and frustration can be expected if you divulge information you should have kept secret. Unexpected changes will be costly if you aren’t prepared. ★★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You will have plenty of unknowns to deal with. Don’t feel obligated to make a promise or an important decision if you don’t have all the facts. A mistake will be costly. Put time aside for romance, travel or fun. ★★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You will gain knowledge and satisfaction from the work you do with and for others. You can expect someone to be pushy or jealous of your talent and skills. Don’t let an argument ruin your track record or your reputation. ★★★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Bypass arguments and aggravations and focus on accomplishment. Use your experience and your voice to get your way. Take control of whatever situation you encounter. Don’t let personal emotional matters stand in the way of your advancement. ★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): The more ground you cover mentally, physically and emotionally, the better you will do. It’s time to get back for all the favors you’ve done for others. Collaborate only if it will bring you success. ★★★★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Fix up your residence. You can expect to face opposition regarding budget and costs. Make sure your plans are well thought out and that you are capable of completing what you promise. A love relationship can turn into a very special and rewarding partnership. ★★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Don’t make a move until you have looked over the paperwork involved. Contracts can be good but only if they honor the things important to you. An important relationship will have a positive influence on you. Follow your emotions in personal matters. ★★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Stop making excuses and you will turn a negative into a positive. Personal and professional gains can be made if you go about it the right way. Someone from your past will have an influence on what you do in the future. ★★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): You have so much to gain by being a participant. An old partner will revive a project that never got off the ground. You will have greater opportunities to reach your goals now by adding a new dimension to an old idea. ★★★★★

Hamlin remains hot Posts fifth victory in 10 races BROOKLYN, Mich. (AP) — Denny Hamlin, his No. 11 Toyota becoming a distant spec on the horizon to the rest of the field late in Sunday’s NASCAR race Michigan International Speedway, heard the caution call come over the radio and tried not to roll his eyes. He knows nobody wants to watch a driver lead by 10 seconds, as he was doing at the time. It makes for bad TV. And even though Hamlin didn’t see Hamlin any debris on the track when the yellow flag flew, he didn’t exactly panic when his massive advantage was wiped out. “I understand this is show business,” Hamlin said. Besides, it turned out to be no big deal for NASCAR’s latest showstopper. Hamlin easily pulled away from Kasey Kahne on the restart with 14 laps remaining and rolled to his fifth victory of the season, dominating the 400-mile race with the same ease in which he’s dominated the series over the past three months. “I didn’t like watching him drive away from me, but I wasn’t surprised when he did,” said Kahne. I thought we had a really good car ... the 11 was just a touch better.” Kahne highlighted a resurgent day for Ford by finishing second, followed by pole-sitter Kurt Busch, Jeff Gordon and Tony
THOMASVILLE – A promising start for the struggling HiToms Sunday evening turned out to be just another disappointing loss on the season. After scoring five runs in the first inning, the Tommies failed to put another run on the board, surrendering a 7-5, Coastal Plain League loss to Gastonia at rain-soaked Finch Field. It was the sixth time the HiToms (4-12) have lost by two or less runs. “We are tying to keep everybody up, but it is getting frustrating,” said HiToms skipper Tom Dorzweiler. “The little things we are not doing right now in order to win a game, I guess I take the blame for us letting up or whatever. I do not know what happened.” Gastonia put a two-spot on the scoreboard in the first inning off starter Ben Grisz, but the offense

A crewman rolls a tire toward the pit wall while Denny Hamlin’s car gets service on the way to victory in Sunday’s race at Michigan International Speedway. Stewart. Four-time defending champion Jimmie Johnson was sixth and Dale Earnhardt Jr. was seventh. They all, however, were merely bystanders as Hamlin continued his hot streak that began with a victory in Martinsville in late March. He led 123 laps and has won five of the past 10 races, and done it in all kinds of ways over all kinds of circuits. Short tracks. Intermediate ovals. Massive speedways. Shootouts. Blowouts. It doesn’t seem to matter. Four months into the season he’s already set a career high for victories and there’s still 21 races to go. “It seems like I used to go into every season thinking, ’We ought to get a couple wins, Martinsville,
Pocono,”’ Hamlin said. “Now it’s just show up and, hey, we can win. That to me is just a feeling I don’t think we’ve ever had before.” And unlike his exuberant celebration at Pocono, Hamlin kept his No. 11 Toyota in one piece. Hamlin put a damper on the victory party last week when he smacked the wall while doing a celebratory burnout. This time, his car rolled into Victory Lane in pristine condition. “There were specific instructions not to wreck,” Hamlin said with a laugh. Not exactly good news for the rest of the series, which finds itself scrambling to keep up. Hamlin’s only hiccup came when he temporarily lost fuel pressure fol-
lowing a pit stop about midway through the race. He promised his team he’d “get it back” and he was in the lead minutes later. Though Hamlin remains third in points behind Kevin Harvick with 11 races to go before the Chase begins, the bonus points from his five victories would have him in first if the Chase started today. Kahne, who says he saw the debris that brought out the late caution, had a brief glimmer of hope on the restart. It lasted all of three laps, or as long as it took for Hamlin to run out and disappear. “He put on a good show,” said Busch, who led 60 laps before Hamlin took over. “That team has been dominant.”
for the HiToms quickly responded with five in the bottom half. Tyler Frederick, David Roney, Daniel Kassouf and Mike Patman accounted for RBIs, as the Grizzlies’ Brandon Padgett lasted only 2⁄3 of an inning. The HiToms still threatened with two men aboard, but Matt Dillon popped out to third base to end the frame. “We really jumped on them and that is something we have been trying to work on,” Dorzweiler said. “We have cut down on our strikeouts and are more aggressive.” Gastonia grabbed one run back in the third, but the bullpen of the HiToms was able to hold steady through the middle innings. The Grizzlies looked to their bullpen again to stay within reach and wound up getting a superb outing from Kevin Kirksey. He bailed his teammate out of a jam in the fourth and kept on cruising. Kirksey
struck out five over the final innings, allowing just a single in the ninth. Gastonia took the lead for good in the seventh, scoring three runs to go up 6-5. Zach Luevanos tacked on the exclamation point in the eighth, hammering a pitch off the netting in right field for a solo home run. With six more players expected to show up in the coming days, Dorzweiler is desperately trying to keep team morale up. With the first half pennant nearing completion and the HiToms well behind, the coach is hoping the final half of the season will produce better outcomes. “The season is still early and we have a long way to go, so we are going to keep digging and plugging away,” he said. “We want to get some momentum going now and be ready for the second half.” Next game is today at home against Catawba Valley at 7 p.m.

HiToms waste strong start BY ZACH KEPLEY ENTERPRISE THOMASVILLE BUREAU
TOP SCORES
ow that the Chicago Blackhawks have captured their first Stanley Cup in 49 years, Windy City sports fans can turn their attention to the city’s other lengthy championship drought. The Chicago Cubs’ World Series title drought stands at 102 years and counting. The Cubbies won back-to-back World Series crowns in 1907 and ‘08, then entered the land of the lost. In fact, the Cubs haven’t even made it to the World Series since 1945. But I was surprised by the fact that the Cubs have made six postseason appearances
since 1994, so perhaps they can build on that and go all the way in 2010. Some other franchises can relate to the Cubs’ misery. The White Sox endured an amazing 88-year gap between World Series championships (1917-2005), while the Red Sox went 86 years (1918-2004) between world titles. In the NHL, the New York Rangers won the 1940 title, then endured 54 years without another sip from the Stanley Cup. The NFL features several notable title droughts. The Chicago/St. Louis/Arizona Cardinals have gone 62 seasons without an
NFL championship since their 1947 crown. The Detroit Lions last won the NFL championship in 1957, while the Philadelphia Eagles haven’t ruled the NFL since 1960. Among NFL teams without any championships in franchise history, the Atlanta Falcons have gone the longest without a crown: 44 seasons. The Cincinnati Bengals own zero championships in 42 combined seasons in the AFL and NFL. Still, nothing really compares to the Cubs’ woes. Maybe this will be the year.

The Atlanta Hawks have officially named Larry Drew as their new head coach. The Hawks made the announcement Sunday, two days after The Associated Press and several other news organizations reported the team was closing in on an agreement with Mike Woodson’s top assistant. This is Drew’s first head coaching job. Woodson coached the Hawks for six seasons but was fired last month after a secondround sweep by the Orlando Magic. Drew emerged as the new coach from a search that also included former head coaches Dwane Casey and Avery Johnson. The Hawks will formally introduce Drew at a news conference Monday.

Next shock in realignment could come Tuesday THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Pac-10 commissioner Larry Scott went on a come-join-us mission across Texas and Oklahoma over the weekend, a trip that could officially doom the Big 12 and set in motion another round of conference jumping. Colorado and Nebraska have already left the rapidly disintegrating conference and five more could be on the way out, too, if Scott has his way. The next shockwave could hit Tuesday, when the Texas regents meet to discuss the Longhorns’ place in the conference tilt-a-whirl that started with Colorado’s defection to the Pac-10 last week. If Texas heads west, then Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Texas Tech and Texas A&M would likely follow, all but securing the Big 12’s fate and leaving the five remaining schools in the lurch. Conferences are building and blowing up, rivalries are being conceived and
killed, and the structure of college athletics could be on the verge of a major shift. “College sports, a lot of it is about traditions and rivalries and things like that, and there’ll definitely be some changes,” said Joel Maxcy, a sports economist at the University of Georgia. The almost-hourly changes have been hard to keep up with and the future possibilities are complex, so it’s time to look at what’s happened, what could be coming and what the implications will be.
WHAT’S HAPPENED SO FAR? The conference jumble started in December, when the Big Ten said it was looking at expansion. Nebraska and Missouri indicated they’d be interested in switching allegiances and were given a leave-or-stay deadline of last Friday by the Big 12. Nebraska left, breaking ties with Big 12 schools that dated, in some cases, to
the 1890s. The Cornhuskers will join the Big Ten in 2011. Missouri, once thought to be a perfect fit for the Big Ten, begrudgingly decided to stay in the Big 12 after failing to get a Big Ten invite, though school curators left open the possibility of leaving if another opportunity pops up. Colorado didn’t wait for Nebraska and Missouri, firing a pre-emptive strike by leaving the Big 12 last Wednesday. The Buffaloes will begin Pac-10 play in 2012. The Big 12 got all the attention, but there was another conference switch last week. On Friday, the same day Nebraska left the Big 12, Boise State packed up for the Mountain West and left the smaller Western Athletic Conference behind for the chance at a clearer path to Bowl Championship Series games. The Broncos have already done well in getting through to the BCS, winning two of the past four Fiesta Bowls. Boise State of-
Blevins-Roland team takes Memorial Cup
ficially joins the Mountain West in 2011.
WHAT’S UP NEXT? The big-ticket agenda item is the fiveteam defection from the Big 12 to the Pac-10. Texas, the kingpin of the Big 12, is the hinge to this swinging door; the Longhorns leave, the four others will likely follow, though Texas A&M has reportedly drawn interest from the Southeastern Conference. If the mass defection does take place, five schools will be searching for a place to land. Kansas, Kansas State, Missouri, Baylor and Iowa State could try to pick up the pieces and pilfer from other conferences or look for a new place to call home. But with so much at stake, don’t think they’ve just been sitting around, waiting to see what’s going to happen before making a move.

Spirit pilots walked off the job Saturday amid an ongoing contract dispute with the airline that has lasted for more than three years. Spirit pilots have said their pay lags behind competitors such as AirTran Airways and JetBlue. “None of the planes are moving and none of our pilots have crossed the picket line,” Paul Hopkins, strike committee chairman of Spirit’s unit of The Air Line Pilots Association, said Sunday. The privately held airline, based in Miramar, Fla., carries 16,680 passengers per day
mostly between the eastern U.S. and the Caribbean and Latin America. Spirit’s CEO said this weekend that no talks were scheduled with picketing pilots. The shutdown continues to cause major problems for Spirit’s flyers. The airline said it is refunding fares for flights Saturday through Tuesday plus offering a $100 credit toward future flights as it tries to get its passengers booked onto other airlines. But people who needed to replace their Spirit tickets found the cost of same-day fares on other airlines was two- to three times more than their tickets. Tim and Dana Wells spent the past week on a cruise ship and didn’t hear about the strike until a taxi dropped them off at Fort Lauderdale airport Sunday morning. Wells, 40, frantically searched his laptop for a flight home to St. Joseph, Mich. His
wife’s pink sunhat rested on the seat next to him as a distant reminder of the peaceful vacation that’s turned into a nightmare. “I think Spirit should be put out of business if they are going to do that to their customers,” he said. The couple eventually found flights home for nearly $1,300 – almost $1,000 more than their original tickets. Fellow travelers Jackie and Gary Brown had surprised their two sons with a cruise vacation. “They’ve never been on a plane, never been out of the Midwest,” said the Bartlett, Ill., mother. Now the family is planning to rent a car and drive home to save money. Spirit refunded their original tickets which they bought for $900 for the whole family. A flight home on Sunday cost about $900 for each person, they said.
WASHINGTON (AP) – From big banks’ exotic trades to the plastic in people’s wallets, a few contentious issues could upend a delicate political equilibrium as lawmakers try to blend House and Senate bills into a single rewrite of banking regulations. The final measure, which President Barack Obama wants on his desk by July 4, is intended to prevent another financial crisis like the 2008 meltdown, which triggered a deep recession. Rep. Barney Frank, chairman of a panel resolving differences in the two bills, and Sen. Christopher Dodd, who shepherded the Senate’s measure, must fend off industry efforts to dilute the final legislation while holding together a Senate coalition that included only four Republicans. Typically, legislation gets watered down in the Senate. This time, the Senate version emerged tougher than the House bill. Frank, D-Mass., agreed to make the Senate bill the base. The financial industry is no stranger to the lawmakers working on the legislation. At least 56 industry lobbyists have served on the personal staffs of the 43 Senate and House members who will have a hand in shaping the bill over the next two weeks, according to an analysis by Public Citizen and the Center for Responsive Politics, two government watchdogs. “It’s going to be very difficult to stop special interests, working through some members of the conference, from inserting weakening provisions,” said Travis Plunkett, legislative director of the Consumer Federation of America.
Gyrating stocks don’t end far from where they start NEW YORK (AP) – The stock market has been swinging wildly but going nowhere. The dramatic ups-and-downs are reminders of the frightening slides of late 2008 and early 2009. Despite the big moves, however, the market hasn’t really ended up far from where it was three weeks ago. That’s a signal that things aren’t as bad as they were during the depths of the financial crisis. Sure, there are big questions about whether the U.S. economy can scrape by with high unemployment and a possible slowdown in Europe. But for all the fear, the market has been more like a car revving its engine in neutral. That means stocks could be priming for a turn higher. A look at the closing prices of stocks since late May shows how
little the market has moved overall. On May 21, the Standard & Poor’s 500 index finished just below 1,088. On Friday, the S&P closed at 1,092. That’s a difference of just 0.4 percent. Going back even further, to one of 2010’s low points on Feb. 8, the S&P 500 index ended near 1,057. It’s only up 3.3 percent since then. There have been many huge swings since the market’s peak in April but thankfully for most investors they all haven’t been down. If all the moves in the past 16 days had been losses, stocks would be down 26 percent. Instead, because of all the zigzagging, the S&P 500 index is down only 2.1 percent. So what does it all mean? Some analysts say the frequent shifts are a sign that the market is closer to getting back in balance
after the S&P 500 index fell 13.7 percent from its 2010 peak on April 23 until its low of the year on June 7. It’s important to remember that it can take time for the market to find its bottom. That means there could be more selling. “It could go down another 10 percent or so,” said John Apruzzese, partner and equity portfolio manager at Evercore Wealth Management in New York. “We had one of the most dramatic drops in investor sentiment that we’ve ever experienced.” Apruzzese and other analysts note that the big drops in confidence drive away investors and can also make the market prone to a surprise climb. When investors give up, savvy traders often see that as a sign to step in.
Hanes Mall goes through transition MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE
There’s a lot of activity at Hanes Mall, between new retailers and store expansions. P.S. from Aeropostale just opened in the former S&K Menswear space on the lower level near J.C. Penney. The store’s merchandise is geared to girls
DILBERT
and boys, ages 7 to 12. On the upper level, folks can now shop at Crazy 8, another children’s clothing store. It’s across from the food court. Great American Cookie is expected to open in the food court in July under a different franchise owner. Also, a Best Buy Mobile store should open in the former Carlyle & Co. lo-
cation on the lower level near Dillard’s in August. An Olan Mills photography studio will open across from the Armed Forces Career Center on the upper level in late July. Hair Reflections used to be in the space. Two retailers at the mall are in expansion mode. Four Gap divisions will consolidate into a
15,000-square-foot prototype store, now under construction, sometime in August, said Dennis Cerny, the general manager for Hanes Mall. Gap, Baby Gap, Gap Body and Gap Kids will be under one roof. Cerny also said that construction has started on a new prototype store with an additional 400
square feet for Wake Forest University’s The Deacon Shop at Hanes Mall. The store is expected to open in August. In the meantime, The Deacon Shop has temporary space on the upper level next to Old Navy. Overall sales at Hanes Mall, going into the summer months, are looking pretty good, Cerny said.
“They’re much stronger than last year’s sales,” he said. Kevin Montgomery hopes to open Sunny Side Tanning in mid-August in northern Winston-Salem, said Colon Moore, a partner with Magnolia Construction LLC. Magnolia is the general contractor that is renovating space for the tanning salon.
Gas prices continue falling CAMARILLO, Calif. (AP) – The average price of regular gasoline in the United States has dropped more than 11 cents over a three-week period to $2.72. That’s according to the national Lundberg Sur-

‘Karate Kid’ opens at No. 1 with $56M kick
AP
Dr. Carol Gilbert, of Roanoke, Va., and her search dog Moki, who is trained to search for human remains, search a flood debris pile near Langley, Ark., Sunday. Search and recovery efforts continue after flooding swept through a nearby campground early Friday, killing at least 19 people.
Families of missing visit site of Arkansas flash flood LANGLEY, Ark. (AP) – Anxious family members toured the campground Sunday where their loved ones were staying when they were swept away by a flash flood, allowed to see for themselves the steep terrain that made escaping the rising water in darkness so difficult. About 20 people from two families were brought to the site – the only people still remaining at a nearby church to wait for word of the missing. Rescue commanders helped the families find their loved ones’ campsites and to gather heartbreaking mementos, including baby pictures and a child’s blanket. “It’s just overwhelming for them. It looks like a war zone here,” said the church’s pastor, Graig Cowart, who accompanied the group. As the search went from one of res-
cue to recovery, 19 people had been confirmed killed in the pre-dawn Friday flood. Searchers recovered one body Sunday in a debris pile, and State Police Capt. Mike Fletch-
Searchers recovered one body Sunday in a debris pile. er said that one person remained missing. He didn’t say whose body was found, and said earlier police reports that three people were missing were incorrect. Many people first feared missing are now not believed to have been camping at the Albert Pike Recreation Area, the part of Ouachita National Forest hardest hit by
flooding, State Police spokesman Bill Sadler said. Those people are believed to be camping elsewhere in the state, out of cell phone range, he said. “Typically when people go on vacation or camping trips, they want to turn those cell phones off,” Sadler said. “That’s the reason they’re on vacation.” Floodwaters rose as swiftly as 8 feet per hour, poring through the remote valley with such force that it peeled asphalt from roads and bark off trees. Cabins dotting the river banks were severely damaged, and mobile homes lay on their sides. Forecasters had warned of the approaching danger in the area during the night, but campers could easily have missed those advisories because the area is isolated.
LOS ANGELES (AP) – “The Karate Kid” has won a 1980s showdown at the box office against “The A-Team.” Sony’s remake of 1984’s “The Karate Kid” debuted at No. 1 for the weekend with a whopping $56 million, according to studio estimates Sunday. The big-screen adaptation of the 1980s TV series “The A-Team” came in at less than half that, the 20th Century Fox release opening in second place with $26 million. After three weekends at No. 1, DreamWorks Animation’s “Shrek Forever After” slipped to No. 3 with $15.8 million. The animated hit raised its do-

Police: Popular US designer found dead in Bahamas NASSAU, Bahamas (AP) – A South Florida interior designer whose elegant creations were popular with movie stars, models and fashion icons was found dead in an exclusive area of the Bahamas, authorities said Sunday. J. Wallace Tutt III was the owner of the boutique Rock House hotel on Harbour Island, an exclusive
area known for its 3-mile pink-sand beach. He was found Saturday morning in a grassy area of the island known as “The Narrows,” said a police official. The cause of death has not been determined, the official said. Tutt is best known for transforming the Miami mansion of the late Italian designer Gianni Versace into a South Beach icon.
