Tank farm fire shows importance of cooperation BY PAUL B. JOHNSON ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
GUILFORD COUNTY – The Greensboro Fire Department has been covered in an outpouring of praise this week like the sheets of foam retardant that firefighters spread across a burning gasoline storage tank last weekend. But while Greensboro firefighters welcome the accolades, they also offer thanks of their own to neighboring fire departments, such as the one in High Point, who assisted during the massive tank fire early Sunday morning. A lightning strike ignited the fire at the Colonial Pipeline Co. tank farm in western Greensboro off Interstate 40 near Gallimore Dairy Road. The response of firefighters restricted the blaze to one tank, and no one was seriously injured by the inferno that took five and a half hours to contain. “Mutual aid programs are made well in advance, and they pay off in these situations,” said Greensboro Assistant Fire Chief David Douglas. When Greensboro officials called High Point communications early Sunday, “we got what we needed,” Douglas said. Many fire stations in northern High Point are closer to the tank farm than Greensboro fire departments in the central and eastern part of Guilford County’s largest city. “We were stretched pretty thin that night,” Douglas said, referring to several residential fires in Greensboro that required the response of units.

GUILFORD COUNTY – The city of High Point is trying to be a good neighbor to Greensboro by agreeing to donate less than an acre of land along a border of the two cities. A bill working its way through the N.C. General Assembly would shift about 0.7 acres of High Point to Greensboro along Chimney Rock Road at Federal Drive. The land donation would occur in northernmost High Point along a western border with Greensboro. The city of Greensboro requested
Senate Bill 1361 to shift the slice of land from High Point, said Randy McCaslin, assistant High Point city manager. High Point would give Greensboro a section of right-of-way along Chimney Rock Road near Federal Drive, McCaslin said. The property being donated to Greensboro was voluntarily annexed into High Point 22 years ago. The city of Greensboro is preparing to do upgrades on Chimney Rock Road, and the road primarily is within the Greensboro city limit, McCaslin said. “They found out that the right-of-
can taxpayers shouldn’t be on the hook for cleaning up BP’s mess,” Foxx said. Coble last week issued a similar statement while voting for a bill to amend the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 to authorize advances from the Oil Spill Liability Trust Fund for the Deepwater Horizon BP oil rig spill. “It is important to note that the oil spill trust fund is funded by the petroleum industry and not the taxpayers,” Coble said.
ness to go along with the White House’s new fund suggests that the Obama administration is hard at work exerting its brand of Chicago-style shakedown politics,” the Republican Study Committee said. The committee is chaired by Rep. Tom Price, RGa., who issued the statements. Foxx issued a statement Thursday saying BP should be held accountable for the disaster in the Gulf of Mexico. “BP must shoulder the financial burden for the spill. That means Ameri-
Greensboro may get small slice of High Point way near Federal was in High Point’s jurisdiction. That’s the reason for the local bill in the General Assembly. It makes it all in Greensboro’s jurisdiction,” he said. The two cities have swapped land in the past along different sections of the border, said Alec MacIntosh, development planning manager for the city of Greensboro. “We’ve altered the agreement line, by mutual consent, between Greensboro and High Point several times to shift developable properties as needed,” MacIntosh said. pjohnson@hpe.com | 888-3528

Fayetteville preacher convicted on drug, weapons charges MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE
FAYETTEVILLE – A Fayetteville pastor who worked as a bail bondsman was convicted Thursday on drug and weapon charges in federal court, authorities said. Robert Lee McQueen, 61, was found guilty on six drug charges and a firearm charge following a four-day trial in federal court in Wilmington, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office. McQueen, a pastor at Burning Bush Missionary Church and the owner of McQ Bail Bonds, was arrested in October 2008 following an investigation by Fayetteville police. The charges were transferred to federal court following an indictment in September 2009 as part of Project Safe Neighborhoods – a federal, state and local initiative that
encourages cooperation in prosecuting gun crimes. According to federal prosecutors, McQueen was convicted of one count of conspiring to distribute 100 grams or more of heroin, three counts of aiding and abetting the distribution of heroin, two counts of distributing heroin and one count of possession of a firearm in furtherance of a drug trafficking crime. For the seven charges, McQueen faces a maximum penalty of life in prison and millions of dollars in fines. McQueen and two co-defendants were arrested after police searched McQueen’s property and found drugs, paraphernalia and money previously marked and used in drug buys by officers. According to evidence presented at trial, Fayetteville police were
first tipped off to suspected heroin sales on Oct. 17, 2008. That month, police made seven controlled purchases while performing surveillance at a residence owned by McQueen. A search of McQueen’s duplex apartment building at 1900 Slater Ave., his vehicle and a second home belonging to co-defendant Madeline Nadine Chambers turned up money used in drug buys, products to mix with drugs, more than 30 grams of heroin, two firearms and paraphernalia, investigators said. The other co-defendant, Chester Arthur Hunt, was stopped leaving the property and found to be in possession of about 100 small packs of heroin. Chambers and Hunt said they purchased their heroin from McQueen, investigators said. Their cases are pending.

Bikini coffee shop closes following boycott AURORA, Colo. (AP) – A suburban Denver coffee shop whose bikini-clad baristas prompted a boycott has closed its doors. Perky Cups was evicted from its home in an Aurora shopping center for failing to pay rent and for violating terms of the lease, including operating outside the shop’s premises.
Owner Jason Bernal sent women wearing bikinis onto city streets to advertise the shop. That prompted City Councilwoman Molly Markert and at least 30 other people to sign a petition last month calling for a boycott of the shop and other businesses in the same shopping center.

HOPE MILLS – Officials will begin reviewing data today in an effort to figure out why the Hope Mills Lake dam failed Thursday, draining the town’s iconic centerpiece. “It’s a sad day for the citizens in Hope Mills,” Town Manager Randy Beeman said during a news conference Thursday morning at the gazebo overlooking the empty lake bed. “This is the fabric, the centerpiece, the social mecca of Hope Mills,” Beeman said. State and local officials and private engineers spent much of the day inspecting the labyrinth reinforced-concrete dam as Little Rockfish Creek pushed its way under the foundation. “This seems to be a repeat of events,” Beeman said. On Memorial Day weekend in 2003, 8 inches of rain fell in the region, causing an 80-year-old earthen dam at the lake
to breach. Part of the wall collapsed, releasing the lake waters and washing out a section of Lakeview Road. It wasn’t until May 2009, after construction of the new dam and spillway, that the town was given the go-ahead to impound water in the lake. The dam was designed by engineers Gordon Rose and Timothy LaBounty. Crowder Construction Co. handled the $14 million construction. Town Commissioners Eddie Maynor and Tonzie Collins, who were at the lake Thursday, didn’t want to say anything until they had more information. Under an agreement with the state Dam Safety Division, the dam was to be monitored for four years because it is considered a high-hazard structure, Beeman said. Steve McEvoy, a state dam safety engineer, said his office was notified of problems at the lake after a periodic inspection of the dam by a private consultant.

Police nab 30 in Haiti quake camp raid PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti – U.N. and Haitian police have arrested 30 suspected criminals in Haiti’s post-quake law-enforcement operation. U.N. police spokesman Jean-Francois Vezina says the authorities stormed “Camp Jean-Marie Vincent� near Port-auPrince’s abandoned military airport before dawn Friday. The camp is home to tens of thousands. Authorities planned the operation nicknamed “balayage� (French for “sweeping�).

At least 50 workers remained unaccounted for a day and a half after the explosion and rescue efforts were moving slowly, impeded by the presence of dangerous gases, officials said.

The attack happened on a particularly bloody day in Iraq, with at least 27 people killed nation-

Flood toll in China rises to 46 BEIJING (AP) – Floods caused by heavy storms have killed 46 people this week in southern China, with 50 people missing as heavy rains had yet to subside. The Ministry of Civil Affairs said Friday emergency rescuers had been dispatched across southern China to help the 2.6 million people affected by the flooding, which has caused $400 million in damages. So far this year, about 200 people have died from flooding and heavy rains, a statement on the State Flood Control and Disaster Relief Headquarters website said. More than 200,000 people have been evacuated from homes in Guangdong, Sichuan, Fujian, Jiangxi, Hunan and Guangxi provinces, according to the Ministry of Civil Affairs website late Thursday. It said 46 people had died. China’s rainy season, which began in May, follows the worst drought in a century for southern Yunnan, Guizhou and Guangxi regions. The drought affected 61 million people, leaving millions without drinking water and 12 million acres barren since last year.

KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) – Three Americans and a British soldier died in fighting Friday in southern Afghanistan, raising to 34 the number of U.S. troops killed in the war so far this month. NATO said Friday that the two Americans died in an insurgent attack and another died in a roadside bomb explosion, but did not provide further details. The U.S. command confirmed their nationalities but did not specify where they died. In London, the British Defense Ministry said one of its soldiers was killed by in an explosion in Helmand province. June is shaping up to be one of the deadliest months for U.S. troops in the nearly 9-year-old Afghan war, as insurgents have stepped up attacks in response to a NATO push into Taliban strongholds in the south. The deadliest month for U.S. troops in Afghanistan was October 2009, when 59 Americans died.

Get involved in community to help change lives “Joy cometh in the morning,” says a Bible verse. I sure hope so! I don’t know if life would be worth living if hope was not in our lives! Recently, one of my best friends was robbed and threatened with murder at gunpoint in his home. This event will forever change his life and the lives of the two boys that committed this crime. I don’t know the two boys that did this. I don’t know their parents, teachers, pastors, role models or anything about them that would make them do this terrible thing. I don’t know what they wanted or what they expected their lives to be like by doing this. All I know for certain is they were not born wanting to do this. There is too much evil in the world, and maybe there will always be. Many say we cannot do anything about that! There is too much violence in our schools and too much evil in our culture, and we can do something about that. There is not nearly enough character, discipline, depth and spiritual teachings in our classrooms. There is not nearly enough attendance in our churches, not nearly enough prayer in our communities and not nearly enough family involvement in our children’s lives, and we can

do something about that. We are not doing nearly enough to teach our children about faith, to teach them about responsibility, to teach them about family and community and we can do better about that and we should start today!

You can find a way to make a difference. I encourage everyone to make a difference and to start in our community. TERRY MILLER Thomasville
Why do we keep killing our innocent babies? I have been thinking about the unwarranted killing of babies in this country through abortion. My heart hurts at the loss of generations of Americans. This was prompted by my reading of Exodus 1:22 NIV – “Then Pharaoh gave this order to all his people:
‘Every boy that is born you must throw into the Nile.’” I was reading an article by Rev. David B. Crabtree, “There’s Hope for Today,” June 6, that expressed clearly my hurting heart. He says in this devotional, quote: “The sentence falls; a common decision; the verdict is final; the order is executed; the life goes on for everyone but the aborted child.” He goes on to say, “Where God is forgotten, the innocent suffer. A self-absorbed culture cannot see the truth. The child, though unwanted, is God’s child, too. In my generation, we’ve slaughtered by millions, sons and daughters beloved by the Father. In my generation, judicial barbarians sentence the unborn as Pharaoh did Moses. In my generation, we’re numbed to the violence, but heaven takes note of the killed and the killer. “Pharaoh’s madness resulted in unspeakable horrors. He rose to the level of Hitler and Stalin. We’ve done Pharaoh ‘one better’ with doctor’s approval. We’ve washed out the blood by judicial decree. In four thousand years, darkened hearts still prevail. “Moses was blessed to be born
in old Egypt. He may not have survived in the ‘Land of the free’.” When will we wake up as a nation and realize what is being done? Will a prophet from God have to come before the people and say, “This is what the Lord says: Why do you disobey the Lord’s commands and keep yourselves from prospering? You have abandoned the Lord, and now he has abandoned you!” (2 Chronicles 14:20[b]). REV. DANNY L. ROMINGER High Point

Properly labeled as “emergency” assistance, the benefits certainly drain the federal treasury for a country already running deep in the red. Unfortunately, that precipice looms again, as the federal government has begun a phase-out of emergency help that will hit gradually, depending upon how long people have received benefits (20 weeks is the maximum). About 21,000 North Carolinians have been affected so far. The U.S. House has passed an extension, but the Senate has not gotten to it. That’s no way to respond to a literal emergency, and Tarheel Sens. Richard Burr and Kay Hagan should push the cause. Providing this help for those who have lost their jobs also helps the country. The benefits can keep people from losing their homes or going bankrupt, in which case creditors take a hit. They also might help recipients avoid reliance on health care through taxpayer-funded programs for the poor. ... In North Carolina, the unemployment rate in April was 10.8 percent. Think about the scope of that. And think, too, that even before the current recession, the state was losing tens of thousands of manufacturing jobs that had gone overseas or simply gone away. ... Are there “cheaters” out there who game the system? Probably. But a look around one’s own neighborhood should disabuse most people of the notion that the emergency assistance program is widely abused. ... Obviously, the federal government isn’t carrying around any blank checks these days. Local and state governments are making cuts in services they would never want to make in other times. But basic, temporary assistance, for those who have worked hard and now find themselves in a desperate struggle to stay afloat, is not just any government program. In this emergency, as in others, there must be action, and it must come quickly. That keeps faith with those who have in the past tried to do their part to contribute through their hard work to their state and their nation, and it keeps faith as well that there really is hope for recovery for us all.

When accidents happen, those responsible must pay
H
ow can anyone be against BP paying for the mess they’ve created in the Gulf? Accidents happen. We know that. But if I come to your house and put a hole in your wall while goofing off playing catch in the house, I must pay for it. If I crash your car in traffic, causing body damage to the car and the people in the car, I am responsible for the repairs and any resulting medical costs of the driver and passengers due to my error. Seems logical? Well, then, how did Republican Leader John Boehner ever let words escape his lips announcing that the U.S. taxpayers should pay for the BP oil spill cleanup? No, you didn’t read that last sentence wrong. He said it, then later retracted his statement. After much pressure, Boehner finally relented. His office announced that BP should pay for the cleanup and all other costs associated with the oil spill. Wow. Boehner is so set on disrupting anything the current administration does, plans to do, or considers doing that he has become blinded. It’s incredible! If at no other time, in moments of great pressure, one’s true colors show. Let’s make the best of this accident. Let’s choose to do the right thing. Let’s hope BP chooses to do the right thing. Tell the truth and make it better. President Obama said this week, “Our work will not end with this crisis. That’s
one of the reasons why last week I invited lawmakers from both parties to join me at the White House to discuss what it will take to move forward on legislation to promote a new economy powered by green jobs, combat climate change, and end OPINION our dependence on foreign oil.” Sondra Obama continued, “ToFoy day, we consume more than ■■■ 20 percent of the world’s oil, but have less than 2 percent of the world’s oil reserves. Beyond the risks inherent in drilling four miles beneath the surface of the Earth, our dependence on oil means that we will continue to send billions of dollars of our hard-earned wealth to other countries every month – including many in dangerous and unstable regions. In other words, our continued dependence on fossil fuels will jeopardize our national security. It will smother our planet. And it will continue to put our economy and our environment at risk. We cannot delay any longer, and that is why I am asking for your help.” And like House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi said, this may be a wake-up call.

Cuban Catholic Church eyes pope visit in 2012 HAVANA (AP) – Cuba’s Roman Catholic leadership hopes Pope Benedict XVI can visit in 2012, a bishop said Thursday, in what would be the first papal trip to Cuba since John Paul II came in 1998. Monsignor Emilio Aranguren, bishop of the eastern province of Holguin, said “it’s our hope, our interest, that the pope come to Cuba in the year 2012,� the 400th anniversary of
the discovery of Cuba’s patron saint. “It’s up to the Holy See,� he said. The Vatican had no immediate comment. In 1612, three men from the eastern copper mining town of El Cobre found a diminutive wooden statue floating off the coast bearing the label, “I am the Virgin of Charity.� She was declared patron saint in 1916. Aranguren’s comments came
at a briefing on the activities of Archbishop Dominique Mamberti, the Vatican’s foreign minister, who is in Havana to mark Catholic Social Week. He said Mamberti’s visit has nothing to do with a possible papal visit. The Catholic Church has recently become a major political voice on the island. In May, Cuban Cardinal Jaime Ortega negotiated an end to a ban on marches by a small group of wives and

Church officials then announced the government would transfer political prisoners held far from their families and give better access to medical care for inmates who need it. It also freed prisoner Ariel Sigler for health reasons.

God’s Silence or Man’s Inability to Hear?
Ecclesiastes 3: 1-2
I
n the face of events like the Holocaust or the genocide in Rwanda and Darfur, God's silence may seem troubling. If the accounts of the Old Testament are to be taken literally, God spoke directly to his people at certain crucial times, telling Noah to build the Ark and directing Moses and Aaron to speak to Pharaoh. In the book of Job, we hear Job calling God to account for the suffering that has befallen him, and God answering him out of the whirlwind. By the time of the great kings of Israel such as David and Solomon, however, God has fallen silent, or speaks only in a whisper, as in the "still small voice" that speaks to Elijah. There is almost a divine pivot here, where God goes from speaking in a thunderous terrifying voice to speaking in a whisper. Notice that in the case of Elijah, God was not in the earthquake or the great wind, as Elijah expected, but in the still small voice. (1 Kings 19:11-13) And in Ecclesiastes, Solomon tells us that God "has put eternity into man's mind," and we seem to have thereby reached a point in human development where God has been internalized in our hearts and minds, God's voice becoming the still small voice of conscience. So in the face of horrors like the Holocaust, perhaps the real question is not whether God has remained silent, but whether the people who knew of these atrocities heard the voice of God within them and failed to speak out.

Here’s a tribute to my father to have as a member of the church. He loved people. Their needs were his concern. He was always slow to criticize another. He taught me, “If you can’t say something good about a person, then don’t say anything.� He taught me that true values come from God. That our best should be given for God’s work, work which he faithfully and generously supported. He admonished me often to be aware of the praise of men by saying, “Keep your feet on the ground.� He gave me his best right to the very end. In his last days, hours, and minutes, his faith did not falter. He rejoiced to see the day when he would go to be with his wonderful Lord whom he served devotedly and devoutly. Words fail in tribute to him. One last honest word – he lived the Christian life more perfectly than any man I have ever known.
Peter the Brave showed extreme courage
W
ithin the New Testament story, some individuals have moments which are exemplary and some have moments which are, well, not. Stephen standing up to the Jewish religious leaders and telling them the story of Jesus and then being stoned to death is a great example of a Christian who is faithful to Christ. Peter following Jesus after he was arrested and then denying that he knew Jesus, not. And because of that incident, Peter has gotten a mixed reputation. But that may change after you read this. Let us look at two other instances in Peter’s life, two instances which show the extreme bravery of Peter. The first incident takes place right after Jesus ascended to heaven. Acts chapter one tells how the Apostles went back to Jerusalem and gathered together in a second-story room. Why? Perhaps because their leader (Jesus) had been crucified a couple of months ago and the authorities might very well crucify the followers of Jesus. So the apostles might have been in hiding. Acts chapter two describes how the Holy Spirit came down and a loud noise was heard. Out of all the Apostles, Peter was the one who went to the crowd and preached about Jesus. But think about this for a minute. Peter and the Apostles (and others) were in a city run by leaders who had put Jesus to death in the most horrible fashion just months before. No doubt they believed they were marked men and were keeping a low profile. So when a crowd gathered, who stepped forward to preach to the crowd? Peter.

and Nero decides to put them both to death. Peter was a Jew and so Nero had him crucified. Paul was a Jew but was also a Roman citizen and so could not be crucified and therefore he was beheaded. But when they took Peter out to be crucified, he said this: “Since my Lord Jesus Christ, who came down from heaven upon the earth, was raised upon the cross upright, and he has decided to call me to heaven, who am of the earth, my cross ought to be fixed head downward, so as to direct my feet towards heaven; for I am not worthy to be crucified like my Lord.� So Peter was crucified upside down! Now, crucifixion was bad enough. But the courage to request to be crucified upside down because you do not believe you are worthy to be crucified like Jesus is almost unbelievable.
He might have gone out believing that he was going to be arrested and crucified STUDYING also. And THE CHURCH why not? It had just happened to Mark Jesus. And Nickens the crowd ■■■was huge. Acts 2:41 states that around 3000 people became Christian, which meant that he preached to far many more than that. This was no doubt a very brave act. Now look at his death. Many scholars believe that the story of Peter’s and Paul’s death found in the Acts of Peter is authentic. In that book, Peter and Paul are taken before the emperor Nero. Peter begins telling Nero about Jesus,
Now let us look back at the incident when Peter denied Jesus. Jesus had eaten the Last Supper with his Apostles and then went to the Garden of Gethsemane to pray. Judas and some soldiers come up, and one Apostle takes a sword and attacks the group. Who was that? Our man Peter. Then, after Jesus is arrested and taken away, who follows, even to the point of going into the house where Jesus was being held? Peter and John.

orty-seven years ago, the body my Dad lived in for 58 years, was gently lowered into the ground in Mt. Vernon Cemetery in the heart of beautiful Teays Valley, W.Va. Today, as I have nearly every day since his death, July 1, 1963, I thought of him – again trying to do the utterly impossible task of putting into words, feeble and faltering words, all that he means to me. He gave me and all his family priceless treasures, treasures beyond all earthly value, in both quantity and quality. He gave me love. I never knew what it was like not to be loved by my father. That must be the reason I like to think of God as my heavenly Father. Father is a word I’ve always equated with the deepest kind of love. He taught me the necessity and meaning of discipline.

Early bird gets the class RCC urges new students to apply early BY DIANNA BELL ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
ASHEBORO – In an effort to make the transition to college smooth and easy, Randolph Community College is offering early registration to new students. “Early registration allows those who were ready to get in ahead of time,” said Shelley Greene, senior director of marketing at RCC. Last year, 1,100 new students applied to RCC for the fall semester. As of June, 1,500 applications had been sent to the college. On Wednesday, Greene said

–
To be eligible for early registration, students must first complete the application process, which includes placement testing. Students can either apply at RCC or online. Go to www.randolph.edu and click on the link that says “How to Enroll” found on the bottom right hand corner of the screen. For more information about Randolph Community College, call (336) 633-0200 for the Asheboro campus, or (336) 862-7920 for the Archdale campus.
the number had jumped yet again to 1,600. “With numbers this large, early registration helps students get the classes they want instead of what’s left over,” Greene said. To be eligible for early registration, incoming students must complete the application process, which includes placement testing. Once this
is done, they will receive an invitation that allows them to sign up for advising and registration sessions. There are two sessions, the first occurring July 26-30 and the second from Aug. 2-6. In addition to the early registration, RCC is offering a plethora of new programs. Starting this fall, Industrial Engineering Technology
and Medical Office Administration will be available along with 16 new pre majors in the Associate in Arts (College Transfer) program. New programs include Accounting, Economics, Finance, Marketing, English, and Psychology. Students now will be able to complete the Associate in Arts (College Transfer) program at the Archdale Center located at 110 Park Drive in Creekside Park. The program currently is awaiting accreditation approval, but is expected to attain that soon. Several of RCC’s programs are available to take completely online. Accounting, Business Administration, Criminal Justice Technology, Early Childhood Education, Healthcare Management Technology, Entrepreneurship and Office
Administration have made the transition to the virtual world and also are available in a traditional classroom setting. Open registration is available this year on Aug. 10 and 11. “Open registration is new this year and allows for more flexibility,” Greene said. “Normally, we have set days. We wanted to provide an opportunity for students who didn’t get into summer classes to hold their spot.” For more information on early and open registration, call the Information Center at RCC: (336) 633-0200 for the Asheboro campus, or (336) 862-7920 for the Archdale campus. The first day of class for the fall semester is Aug. 16.

BY DAVID NIVENS ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
GUILFORD COUNTY – The United Animal Coalition claims it will nearly double the pet adoption rate and triple the owner reclaim rate at the county animal shelter by 2012, according to a new 5-year contract the Guilford County Board of Commissioners approved last week. UAC has operated the county shelter at 4525 W. Wendover Ave. since 1998. Although the shelter impounds nearly 18,000 animals a year, shelter leaders want to increase the adoption rate to 60 percent by 2012. For the year ending June 30, the agency estimated that 33 percent of 17,000 animals were adopted. At any given time, there are more than 1,000 animals at the shelter. Most shelter animals are captured by animal control officers or surrendered by owners. In 2009, the shelter impounded 15,993 animals. An estimated 34 percent of them were adopted and owners reclaimed 9 percent. UAC wants to increase the reclaim rate to 30 percent by 2012. In recent years, shelter workers have killed as many as 8,000 animals a year. Before UAC took control, more than 10,000 animals died in some years. Last year, commissioners increased the county’s shelter contribution to $1.9 million. The new contract offers $1.6 million for each of the next five years. Commissioners approved the contract on a 10-1 vote with Democratic Commissioner Carolyn Coleman voting against it. A 5-year contract could be too long, she said. Republican Commissioner Billy Yow, a shelter committee member, said the contract takes the UAC out of budget negotiations with commissioners. “This commits them to raise the additional money they need,” Yow said. dnivens@hpe.com | 888-3626

County hosts shot clinics ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT
GUILFORD COUNTY – County health officials will offer special clinics this summer to make it easier for teens to get the shots they need for school and for warding off serious diseases. According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, immunity from some childhood vaccines can decrease over time, so young people need to get another dose during their pre-teen years. Also, as children move into adolescence, they are at greater risk of catching certain diseases, such as meningitis. “We want to make it as easy as possible for teens to get the shots they need to remain healthy,” said Vonda Pabon, nurse manager at the Guilford County Department of Public Health. The special teen immunization clinics are as scheduled for June 29, July 13, Aug. 20 and Aug. 23. Also, appointments are available from 8:00 a.m. to 4:45 p.m. any weekday except holidays in the general immunization clinics. Teens and other children must get these immunizations for school: • A tetanus/diphtheria/pertussis or “Tdap” booster for children who are entering sixth grade in public school on or after

–
Mandated: Childhood immunizations required by law for school will be available free at the public health department for students up to age 18. If immunizations are recommended, there may be a fee, but most major insurances are accepted to lower out of pocket expense. A complete list of CDC immunizations recommended for adolescents is on the agency’s website, www.guilfordhealth.org. Information: Contact the Department of Public Health at 641-5563 in Greensboro or 845-7655 in High Point to make appointments. Bring shot records. For more information about adolescent vaccinations, contact Guilford County Department of Public Health at 641-7777 or your pediatrician.

adolescents ages 11 and 12, or teens entering high school or college freshman 18 and older living in dormitories. • Gardasil to protect against the four most common high-risk types of the human papillomavirus or HPV: two types that cause over 90 percent of genital warts and two types that cause 70 percent of cervical cancers in females. The immunization is on CDC’s recommended list for 11 to 18 year-olds. • Influenza: All children, including those at high-risk with chronic diseases, 6 months to 18 years of age should be vaccinated. Flu shots are generally available beginning in October.

Man made political donations through kids RALEIGH (AP) – A North Carolina businessman says no one ever instructed him to get around state campaign finance laws by funneling money to his workers to make political contributions. Atlantic Corp. owner Rusty Carter made the statement in an affidavit released Friday by the State Board of Elections. He was fined and got probation in state court last month for accepting responsibility for $176,000 in illegal donations to the campaigns of Gov. Beverly Perdue and two state senators. Carter’s affidavit said his company also gave $267,000 to federal and state candidates by paying or reimbursing employees who made the donations. He also said his children donated $73,000 using money he gave them. State law bans corporate campaign contributions and using someone else’s money for a donation.

French commander in colonial wars dies PARIS (AP) – Gen. Marcel Bigeard, who led France’s elite parachute forces in colonial wars in independenceseeking Indochina and Algeria after serving in the French Resistance in World War II, has died at age 94. “He has been called the best paratrooper in the world, and whatever the truth of that, he most certainly has a claim as the most battle-proven,” said Martin Windrow, a British military historian. But Bigeard also was captured by insurgents while fighting in Vietnam, and he was accused of being ruthless against POWs in Algeria, in a conflict his country eventually lost. Bigeard went into German captivity as a warrant

Longtime NC lawmaker dies at 93 BURLINGTON (AP) — A longtime legislator known for her work to get North Carolina to repeal a law that said husbands could not be charged with raping their wives has died at the age of 93. Bertha “B” Holt died Friday morning at her home. Jefferson Holt of Chapel Hill says his mother had suffered a stroke Sunday. The Burlington law-
maker was in the state House of Representatives from 1975 to 1994. She led the effort to change the state’s marital rape law. The law was amended in the 1987-88 session and was taken off the books in 1993. Other survivors include a daughter, Harriet Whitley of Burlington, and another son, Merrill, of San Francisco. Her husband, Clary Holt, died in 2003.
Nobel Prize-winning author Saramago dies LISBON, Portugal (AP) – Jose Saramago, who became the first Portugueselanguage winner of the Nobel Literature prize although his popularity at home was dampened by his unflinching support for Communism, blunt manner and sometimes difficult prose style, died Friday. Saramago, 87, died at his home in Lanzarote, one of Spain’s Canary Islands, of multi-organ failure after a long illness, the Jose Saramago Foundation said. “The writer died in the company of his family, saying goodbye in a serene and placid way,” the foundation said. Saramago was an outspoken man who an-

spat in 1992 with the Portuguese government, which he accused of censorship. His 1998 Nobel accolade was nonetheless widely cheered in his homeland after decades of the award eluding writers of a language used by some 170 million people around the world. “People used to say about me, ‘He’s good, but he’s a Communist.’ Now they say, ‘He’s a Communist, but he’s good,”’ he said in a 1998 interview with The Associated Press. Portuguese Prime Minister Jose Socrates said Saramago was “one of our great cultural figures and his disappearance has left our culture poorer.”
State jobless rate drops for third month RALEIGH (AP) – North Carolina’s unemployment rate improved in May for the third straight month, this time to 10.3 percent, but the boost came mostly from a gain in government hiring, the state Employment Security Commission said Friday. The unemployment rate fell from 10.8 percent in April. The national unemployment rate also had fallen, from 9.9 percent in April to 9.7 percent in May. North Carolina’s unemployment rate had been as bad as 11.2 percent in February, the worst since the current calculation method started in 1976. The number of people working increased by 14,722 and the number on the unemployment rolls decreased by almost 20,800 workers.
Though the jobless rate has been falling, government was responsible for much of the improvement, adding 16,100 workers, while manufacturing lost 2,900 jobs and leisure and hospitality services shed 2,700 positions. John Connaughton, an economic forecaster at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, said the fact that government hiring was responsible for the state’s improved unemployment rate means the figure could readily rise again in a few months. The lower unemployment rate was “a result of the census workers being hired and they’ll be gone in three months,” Connaughton said. “The rest of the private-sector economy is negative and that’s very worrisome.”
Since the recession began in December 2007, North Carolina has lost 251,900 nonfarm jobs, with manufacturing losing 103,400 of them. The state data showed manufacturers are pushing their employees to work longer hours. That increases the pressure for factories to speed hiring. But Connaughton said companies have learned to do more with fewer workers, so he doesn’t expect a broad increase in hiring soon. “They’re not going to go through the painful process of adding workers with the prospect of laying them off in six months or a year,” he said. “They’re still not convinced that we’ve made a big turnaround yet.”
Bigeard rose to fame during France’s ultimately doomed effort to reassert control over its colony in Vietnam, after it proclaimed independence in 1945. He served three combat tours there, and his crack 6th Colonial Parachute Battalion became France’s spearhead in the war against President Ho Chi Minh’s guerrillas. He was captured along with about 12,000 other defenders when insurgents overran the French fortress of Dien Bien Phu in May 1954 – knocking France out of the war. Within a year of his release, Bigeard was back in action, battling Algerian freedom fighters in the capital, Algiers.

Already-green industry turns greener B
eing cursed with having visionary ideas before their time, I have not been surprised to see the “green” horticulture industry finally turn really green. For the 17 years that I operated a horticulture operation from the late 1970s to the mid-1990s, our family always practiced eco-friendly actions in our business. In the 1970s, I came up with the Riddick Redi-Plant for our four-inch pots of azaleas and our two-gallon roses both of which were planted in biodegradable cellulosic material fiber pots. Of course our tomato plants were sold in peat pots. Additionally, I started a recycling program for our customers where we would give a five cent credit for every nursery pot returned to the nursery. The credits could be used on consumer purchases. We cleaned and disinfected the pots for re-use. The Missouri Botanical garden in St. Louis maintains a plastic pot recycling program which
includes 10 garden centers throughout the St. Louis area. The program ECOLOGY has saved more than Gwyn 425 tons of Riddick plastic pots ■■ ■■ ■ from the landfill. The program accepts cell packs, trays, pots and hanging baskets that have been cleared of dirt and debris. The plastic is granulated into particles that are transported to manufacturers into planks used for decks and landscape projects. Loma Vista Nursery in Olathe, Kan., started recycling plastic several years ago and in 2009 reclaimed almost 70,000 containers and six semitruck loads of plastic film. They now have one full-time employee sorting, stacking and cleaning the reclaimed pots. Nursery customers drop off their pots but don’t receive any credit rewards other than a
good feeling about the environment. Researchers at the USDA Agricultural Research Service and the Horticultural Research Institute have been working to develop biodegradable keratin based resins. Keratin is the material that makes up your hair or fingernails. In October, HRI filed a joint patent application with the USDA-ARS to cover the project. This year, they made a test run of one gallon containers which was a success. The pots are now going to three ARS facilities in the US for nursery trials. The keratin in these pots comes from poultry feathers. “Plastics from petroleum often stay around a couple hundred years; so why do you want a plastic that you use for a year to last a couple hundred years, make no sense, match the product with the use,” said Dr. Walter Schmidt, USDAARS scientist. The Missouri Botanical Garden website sums it all up with their
sustainability statement, “Plants and their ecosystems continue to be negatively impacted by human behaviors and choices related to the food we eat, the homes and buildings we construct and operate, the products we produce and consume, and the transportation methods we employ.” Ecoform Pots is a company that makes pots from rice hulls and starch-based, water-soluble biodegradable natural binding agents. The pots are designed to last up to five years outdoors in all climates and applications. They will keep their shape until the end of their functional life then can be discarded and decomposition will take place and they will break down into nutrient-rich organic matter with a pH value of 7.0 (neutral).

ear Abby: My father is a successful attorney. He appears to be the ideal father because he’s charming, has a sense of humor and is intelligent. He’s a different person in private. Since I was 12, he has verbally and emotionally abused me, sometimes hitting me, throwing me down, threatening to evict or kill me. Abby, I was not a bad child. I never experimented with drugs or alcohol and spent little time with friends. I’m currently in college and maintain a 4.0 GPA. My family and I think my father is mentally ill. He’s extremely unstable and has a family history of these issues, including suicide. He has started stockpiling his deceased father’s belongings, speaks to the dog as if it were a human being, and obsessively checks things in the house like locks, etc. He has extreme anger issues and other bizarre behaviors. It’s clear Dad has a problem, but because it has not affected him at work he sees no reason to get help. The one time I brought it up it only enraged him. He believes he is the ruler of the house, in control of everything, but it’s obvious he’s losing control. We know we can’t force him to get help, but what can I do to get Dad to see a psychiatrist or to improve the situation? Mom has

given up, and I’m afraid for my little sister. She’s in high school and still lives at home. – Big Sis in New Mexico
Dear Big Sis: Your mother should have insisted your father get help when he started abusing you. Because she didn’t, you should have told a teacher or counselor at school because they are mandated to report it. If your father abuses your sister, that’s what she must do. While many people mistakenly think that domestic abuse happens only in low-income families, family violence occurs among people on all social and economic levels. Because you fear for your sister’s safety, contact the National Domestic Violence Hotline at (800) 799-7233. The people there can suggest help for your mother and sister, but your father cannot be “helped” unless he’s willing to finally admit he needs it. ■■■
Dear Abby: I just returned from a “Manicure/Pedicure Party” for a friend who is being married. The invitation I received stated, “Please join us for a manicure and
pedicure in honor of the bride-to-be.” I was home about 10 minutes when I received a phone call from one of my hostesses. She told me that I had left without paying for my manicure and pedicure! I was floored. I told her I had forgotten, but the fact is, I had assumed since the invitation stated “Please join us” that the hostesses were paying. Did I misinterpret the invitation? Or do people now “host” parties where they expect the guests to pay their own way? I am embarrassed and confused. Should I have asked the salon worker or the hostesses who was paying the bill? – Confused in Cowtown Dear Confused: Obviously you did misinterpret the invitation, which should have clearly mentioned that the event was “no host” and the guests would be required to pay for their own “salon services.” I see no reason why you should have assumed that you’d be asked to pay, and your confusion is understandable. But please don’t feel embarrassed. The folks who should feel embarrassed are the “hostesses.” DEAR ABBY is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.

OVERRUFF South should be a mouse and protect his contract by ruffing the third diamond low. South expects West to overruff, but if West has four trumps and no more diamonds, he will always score one trump trick. South can afford one trump loser, but not two. Sure enough, West will overruff, but South wins any return, draws all the trumps and takes his winners for 10 tricks.
CROSSWORD
Saturday, June 19, 2010 CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Zoe Saldana, 32; Paula Abdul, 48; Kathleen Turner, 56; Gena Rowlands, 80 HAPPY BIRTHDAY: You may be surprised by the changes around you this year. The only way to be a part of future trends is to embrace them and stay in the game. Your willingness to take part will be the determining factor in how far you can go and how many opportunities you will be able to take advantage of. Don’t be a fence sitter. Your numbers are 6, 12, 16, 27, 30, 33, 46 ARIES (March 21-April 19): Don’t make an impulsive remark or decision when the crux of the matter is more complex. Look past the obvious and you will find the right answers. Love is in the stars. ★★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Your mind may be on your future and the changes ahead of you, but take a moment to enjoy the company of friends and family. A patient approach to life, love and happiness will position you nicely for advancement. ★★★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Add extra effort to whatever you pursue and you will be successful. Allow time to develop hobbies and skills you enjoy the most. An emotional matter will disrupt your plans. ★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): Speaking of something you know little about will be frowned upon. A personal matter that involved you and someone you love will develop into a full-fledged dispute if you refuse to compromise. Pay your way and your way only. ★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Trust your instincts and your judgment when dealing with friends, relatives or neighbors. Don’t get upset before you know the facts. Put your troubles on hold and enjoy time spent with someone you care for. ★★★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): A little will go a long way if you are energetic and do what needs to be done without hiring help. Share your plans with someone knowledgeable and experienced and you will come up with something unique and detailed to your liking. ★★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Don’t let your emotions get the better of you. Accept whatever change is heading your way. There is so much to look forward to once you get moving. You will be pleasantly surprised if you are patient. ★★★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): An interesting moneymaking plan will be tempting but, just because it works for someone else, doesn’t ensure it will work for you. Expect someone to make a costly, last-minute change. How swiftly you adjust is what will count. ★★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You can offer your skills, knowledge or experience and get something equally good in return. Making changes at home will be beneficial emotionally, mentally and financially. Love is looking good if you make plans for two. ★★★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You will have plenty to consider and even more to get done. Don’t let someone who doesn’t agree with what you are doing slow you down. An emotional matter will be costly if you don’t honor a contract or promise. ★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Do whatever is required to make your life more efficient. Changes to your home or a move should reflect your present stage in life. Prepare to spend on items that will ease your stress or bring you greater comfort. Don’t let someone who cares about you let you down. ★★★★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Focus on what’s best for everyone before you proceed or you can expect to face a power struggle. You will be judged by what you have already done and how successful you have been, so do not leave anything to chance. ★★★

BRIDGE Cy the Cynic says that the best-laid plans of mice and men are approximately equal. In today’s deal, NorthSouth had no trouble reaching four hearts after North responded to South’s takeout double with a strength-showing cue bid. West led a diamond, and East took the jack and ace and led the king. “Never send a mouse to do a man’s job,” SoUth said cheerfully, and he ruffed with the ace of trumps. He next led a trump to dummy’s king, and his face fell when East discarded. West was sure of two trump tricks, and South went down one. “Only a 5-0 trump break beat me,” South said, less cheerfully.
HOROSCOPE
ANSWER: The easy and obvious action is correct: Bid 3NT. You have no compelling reason to pursue any other contract. Your pattern is balanced, you need not mention your spades – partner would have bid one spade if he had four cards in the suit – and your diamond support is unattractive. East dealer N-S 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.

Barefoot on the track
D
ear Dr. Donohue: I read your response to a runner who complained of heel pain, and I was appalled that you gave advice that would only worsen his situation. “Well-cushioned shoes and heel inserts” do not help. Studies at many universities show shoes cause us to land on our heels. Many scientific and sports-medicine journals state that barefoot runners experience less impact than do runners wearing shoes. Furthermore, barefoot running helps relieve back pain and headaches, and it helps you feel like a better person by improving your well-being. – B.J.

B.C.
Your ardor for barefoot running impresses me. Barefoot running is said to encourage a different running style, one where the forefoot strikes the ground first instead of the heel. That is reported to subject the foot and leg to less stress than a heel strike does. Some of the world’s first-class runners run barefoot. Native Americans, famous for their running prowess, ran in uncushioned moccasins. I discussed this with my feet. They voted in favor of me keeping my shoes on. I regret to say I remain a less better person.
HAGAR THE HORRIBLE
Dear Dr. Donohue: I am interested in learning how much body fat I carry. I know how to figure body mass index, but I don’t trust it as being a reliable guide. When I was 35, I weighed

170 pounds and was quite muscular. I am now 65 and weigh the same, but I definitely HEALTH am not as muscular Dr. Paul as I was Donohue then. My ■■■ body mass index is the same. I know I have more fat now than I did. How can I learn my real fat content? – H.D. Body mass index is weight in pounds divided by height in inches squared. That number is then multiplied by 703. For those adept with the metric system, body mass index is obtained by dividing weight in kilograms by height in meters squared. A result less than 24.9 indicates proper weight. One greater signifies you’re overweight. BMI, as you say, doesn’t provide a precise reflection of how much of a person’s weight is fat and how much is lean body weight – muscle and bone. A number of ways determine body fat. Measuring the width of pinches of skin (skin folds), timing how long it takes an electric current to pass through the body, weighing under water and employing DEXA (dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, the same test used for checking bone strength) can give reliable estimates of the percentage of body fat. For a man between 40 and 59, body fat should be between 11 percent and 21
percent; for a woman of that age, between 23 percent and 33 percent. For older people, the percentages are slightly higher, and for younger people, slightly lower. The lower amount of body fat indicates a healthier body, one less likely to have a heart attack. You can get equally good information by measuring your waist. Fat in the abdomen is a great risk for developing heart disease, artery hardening and diabetes. You should use a cloth tape measure and take the reading at the level of the navel (belly button). A woman with a waist 35 inches (89 cm) or larger and a man with a waist 40 inches (102 cm) or larger has too much body fat. Dear Dr. Donohue: My question has to do with sunscreen. I know it’s important to use the kind that protects against both ultraviolet A and B. What about SPF. Does the greater SPF make a difference? – S.U. An SPF (sun protection factor) of at least 15 affords good protection. It allows you to stay in the sun 15 times longer than you normally could without burning. Apply an ounce of lotion or cream to your body. Most use too little, around a quarter of an ounce. Reapply it every two hours or after being in the water, unless the product information gives different directions. An SPF greater than 30 doesn’t provide that much more protection.

Lefty charges with 66 PEBBLE BEACH, Calif. (AP) – With each birdie, Phil Mickelson put some life into an overcast day at Pebble Beach and gave himself another chance to finally take something more than silver home from a U.S. Open. It wasn’t enough to catch Graeme McDowell of Northern Ireland, who set the early pace Friday with a 3-under 68 to take a two-shot lead into the weekend. All that mattered to Mickelson, however, was getting back to even par. He did one better. With five birdies in a seven-hole stretch early in his round, Mickelson shot a tournament-best 66 and joined a shrinking group of five players who have beaten par over two days at Pebble Beach. McDowell was at 3-under 139, and he made even more friends with a bogey on the final hole. Because of the 10-shot cut rule, that assured 60-year-old Tom Watson two more rounds in what likely will be his final U.S. Open. Mickelson was joined at 1-under 141 by two-time U.S. Open champion Ernie Els (68), 18-year-old Ryo Ishikawa (71) and Dustin Johnson (70), who has won the last two times in the Pebble Beach National Pro-Am and looks right at home in much firmer conditions. The names weren’t important to Mickelson. Only the numbers. “I’m in a good spot,” said Mickelson, whose five runner-up finishes is a U.S. Open record. “I don’t look at the leaderboard. I don’t look at other players. I look at par. If you can stay around par, you’re going to be in the tournament Sunday.” The Masters champion opened with a 75 Thursday after missing a half-dozen birdie putts inside 12 feet. On Friday, he hardly missed anything. It began with an approach into about 4 feet on the tough par-4 second hole, and Mickelson was relentless on the front nine until hitting into the cavenous bunker short of the ninth green and making his only bogey. By then, he was back in the game. Tiger Woods believes he’s still in the mix, too, although a pedestrian round of 1-over 72 left him seven shots behind.

The HiToms’ Kyle Grieshaber waits for the ball as Gastonia’s Thomas Brittle takes second base during Friday night’s Coastal Plain League game at Finch Field in Thomasville.
Grizzlies bag HiToms BY DANIEL KENNEDY SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE
THOMASVILLE – The Gastonia Grizzlies spoiled a dominant pitching performance by Nate Striz and the HiToms were unable to reverse their fortunes as they lost 2-1, a night after the Grizzlies blanked Thomasville 1-0 in Gastonia. Thomasville had runners on first and second with one out in the bottom of the ninth, but Kyle Grieshaber was caught stealing third on a double-steal attempt. Alex Yarbrough advanced to second on the play, but Gastonia closer Seth Grant got David Roney to ground out to end the game. “I was hoping something would happen, that we would spark anything there to generate some runs,” HiToms manager Tom Dorzweiler said. “It didn’t work. You’ve just gotta try to do what you can, when you can and the opportunities present themselves.” Striz threw four innings and allowed no runs on four hits, fanning nine. Gastonia starter Jordan Underwood gave the Grizzlies seven solid innings, as he scattered six hits and allowed one run while striking out four. Robert Van Cour worked a scoreless eighth and Grant closed it out in the shaky ninth. “We had another good pitching performance from our staff,” Dorzweiler said. “We’re just not executing when we have runners in scoring position. That’s something we’re desperately going to work on.”
The HiToms struck first with a trio of bloop singles that loaded the bases in the second inning. Thomasville scraped across the initial run on an error committed by third baseman Austin Potter trying to field a ball and throw home for an out. Underwood worked out of the remaining jam and induced a 1-2-3 double play to end the inning. The next real opportunity the HiToms had to score was in the fourth, when Jeremy Dowdy was thrown out at the plate trying to score on Kyle Grieshaber’s single to center. An accurate throw by the Grizzlies’ Thomas Brittle cut down Dowdy and denied what would have been Thomasville’s second run. The play proved crucial in keeping the game at 1-0, setting the stage for the Grizzlies offense. Jordan Cooper took over for Striz in the fifth and breezed through his first two innings before coming into some trouble in the seventh when he put runners on first and second base. Zach Luevanos drove in the Grizzlies’ first run on an RBI single that just managed to squeak past first baseman Zak Wasserman. The next hitter, Justin Dunning, laid down a beautiful sacrifice bunt down the first-base line that scored Potter from third base, giving Gastonia the go-ahead run. The HiToms move to 5-14 on the season and play at Asheboro tonight.

nterleague play continues today with some hits, but many more misses. The highlights include the Mets at Yankees (is it me, or do thay play at least 18 times every season?), Rays at Marlins, Angels at Cubs, Dodgers at Red Sox and Rangers at Astros. Those are appealing matchups. But we also have several duds. Are you
excited about San Francisco at Toronto, Arizona at Detroit, Kansas City at Atlanta, Cleveland at Pittsburgh, Baltimore at San Diego or Cincinnati at Seattle? Me neither. I know interleague play is here to stay, so I may as well learn to live with it. That’s easier said that done. I long for the days when the World Series
offered the only interleague showdown each season. Sure, it’s nice for fans to see different teams and different stadiums from time to time. I just think seeing them in October holds much more intrigue.

The two-time NBA champion Los Angeles Lakers’ most important free agent this summer is a 64-year-old former forward with two bad knees, two artificial hips and more championships than any coach in NBA history. When Phil Jackson reveals his plans for the future next week, the Lakers can get to work on reconfiguring their roster for a run at a threepeat. Amid the confetti of their 83-79 victory over the Boston Celtics in Game 7 of the NBA finals on Thursday night, the Lakers already were thinking to the future.

Kesterson captures Footjoy BY GREER SMITH ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER
GREENSBORO – Not knowing where he ranked in relation to every one else, all Travis Kesterson wanted to do was make par on the final hole on Friday. He did. Justin Thomas and Anthony Paolucci didn’t, a turn of events that left Kesterson the winner of the AJCA Footjoy Invitational and the berth in the Wyndham Championship that went along with the victory. “My goal was to win an AJCA event and I did that,” Kesterson, a 17-year-old from Plano, Texas, said. “My next goal was to win an Invitational and I did that. I feel very pumped about myself.” Helped by the collapse of third-round leader Denny McCarthy, Kesterson walked off the 16th green at 10-under to go ahead of Thomas (as they played in the next-to-last group) and two ahead of Anthony Paolucci, who was in the final group. Kesterson, who will be a high school senior in the fall and has committed to play at Oklahoma State, bogeyed 17 to drop into a tie with Thomas going into the final hole. Thomas put his tee shot in the rough 220 yards out, then left his second shot about 30 feet sort of the green. He failed to get up and down, narrowly missing his par putt after Kesterson made a relatively routine par, tapping in from less than a foot to go into the clubhouse as the leader at 9under-par 271 after a final round 68. “I didn’t know where I was in relation to every one else,” Kesterson said. “All I wanted to do is stay relaxed and
make a par. I knew I had a shot. All I was trying to do was hit a good drive, knock the second shot on the green and two putt.” Until after signing his scorecard, he was unaware that Paolucci birdied 16 and 17 to go to 10-under. “I wasn’t aware until someone told me,” Kesterson said. “All I wanted to do was make par on 18, and whereever that put me, it put me.” He quickly became aware Paolucci put his tee shot on 18 into the trees so badly that he could only pitch into the fairway about 250 yards from the green. His third shot was also errant, flirting with the trees near the green before bouncing to a stop near the cart path. With not much green to work with, Paolucci tried to lob his fourth shot close to the hole. Instead, it ran 30 feet past. When the bogey attempt failed to drop for Paolucci, Kesterson began receiving handshakes. Defending champion Thomas sat dejectedly on a golf cart while Paolucci headed for the scorer’s table in dismay as they finished at 8under. Thomas also shot a final-round 68 while Paolucci carded a 69. Coming down the stretch, Kesterson said he tried not to think about possibly winning the spot in the Wyndham in August. “You start thinking about that stuff and you get off your game,” Kesterson said. ”Instead, I kept thinking about the golf course, about no pressure and trying to stay relaxed.” gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3519
Womble ties for 28th BY GREER SMITH ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER
GREENSBORO – Exasperation oozed from Davis Womble’s voice. Womble, who will be a junior at Wesleyan Christian Academy in the fall, hoped to follow up on his thirdround 67 and post a top-10 finish in the AJGA Footjoy Invitational on Friday. Instead, he carded a 6-over 76 to finish in a tie for 28th at 8-over 288, 17 shots behind winner Tanner Kesterson. “I only made two really bad swings,” Womble said. “I just didn’t think too well today.” Double-bogeys on 10 and 11 proved to be the dagger in Womble’s round, dropping him to 6-over for the first time. “I just had a mental collapse,” he said. On 10, he three-putted from above the hole. On 11, his second shot hit a tree and flew out of bounds. “It was took risky of a shot for that time of the day,” Womble said of his errant shot on 11. “I hit my drive in the trees and I was trying to get it back.” Womble birdied 15 but then bogeyed 18 when he pitched a pitch from behind
the green to the front and two putted. “I hit it the same, ball-striking wise, every day,” Womble said. “On Thursday when I shot 67, I made a couple of long putts. I kept head my straight. I kept it in play well. Today. I played a 71 or 72 game for sure. But, I made too many errors.” Womble opened with a 69 but fell out of contention with a 76 in Wednesday’s second round. He said he has played in 15 AJGA events and plans enter two others this summer. His next event will be he North Carolina Junior Amateur next week at Forest Oaks. “When you post a 76 on the second day, you are not going to be in contention with this kind of field,” Womble said. “You can’t shoot any worse than oneover in a round and you’ve got to post a couple of 66s. I was hoping to play well and maybe have a top 10 if I had played really well, but it didn’t turn out. “But, I’m not too disappointed in the way I played today. After the double bogeys, I got my head together and didn’t throw away any other shots.” gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3556
Harrell paces N.C. Amateur ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT
WILSON – Huntersville’s Logan Harrell carded a 5-under-par round of 65 to take a one-stroke lead
midway through the 50th N.C. Amateur Championship on Friday at Wilson Country Club. Harrell leads at 7-under 133. West End’s Sher-
rill Britt stands second entering today’s third round. High Point’s Terrance Stewart made the cut at 74-73–147. He is tied for 60th.
Steinhauer leads LPGA event with 64 GALLOWAY TOWNSHIP, N.J. (AP) – The ShopRite LPGA Classic is back, and so seemingly is 47-year-old Sherri Steinhauer. After missing all of last year following surgery on both hips and grueling rehabilitation, Steinhauer stole the show in the opening round of the reborn ShopRite event with a near-flawless 7-under 64 on Friday on the Bay Course at Seaview. Steinhauer gives the tournament a link with its past. She and Juli Inkster are the only players to compete in every ShopRite Classic.
“It’s not easy doing all the rehab work, but a start like this makes it seem worthwhile,” Steinhauer said. Steinhauer had six birdies, an eagle and one bogey in taking a one-stroke lead over Natalie Gulbis and rookie Tania Elosegui of Spain. Ai Miyazato, the Japanese star who has dominated the women’s tour with three victories this year, was in a group two shots back. Brittany Lincicome, Suzann Pettersen and Paula Creamer, who is playing in her first event since surgery on her left wrist on March 31, were in another large group three shots back.

Nationals starting pitcher Stephen Strasburg throws against the Chicago White Sox during the first inning of Friday night’s game in Washington, D.C.
Obama sees Strasburg set record THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON – Stephen Strasburg set a strikeout record in front of President Barack Obama — but both had left the game by the time the Chicago White Sox won it in the 11th. The baseball holiday – every fifth day – known as Strasmas was again a spectacle Friday night. The 21-year-old rookie sensation struck out 10 to run his tally of Ks to an unprecedented 32 through three starts, yet he experienced his first no-decision in the White Sox’s 2-1 victory over the Washington Nationals. Mark Kotsay singled and scored on Alex Rios’ infield hit off Drew Storen (21) in the 11th inning for the White Sox, who have won four straight and eight of
nine. J.J. Putz (2-2) worked the 10th to get the win, and Bobby Jenks the 11th for his 14th save. The Nationals have lost six of seven, with Strasburg accounting for the only victory during that stretch. Strasburg allowed four hits over seven innings. He lowered his ERA to 1.86 and didn’t walk a batter for the second time in three starts. J.R. Richard held the previous record for strikeouts in his first three major league starts, tallying 29 for the Houston Astros in 1971.

Purke has TCU well-armed for first CWS appearance OMAHA, Neb. (AP) – His TCU teammates call him “Harry Potter.” Yes, you could say Matt Purke is a wizard. The left-hander stands out not just because of his glasses or the way he wears his straight-billed cap at a jaunty angle. For all his quirks, Purke has become college baseball’s dominant freshman one year after turning down millions as the Texas Rangers’ top draft pick in 2009. He’ll introduce Florida State and a national tele-
vision audience to his 97-mph fastball Saturday when the Horned Frogs make their first appearance in the College World Series. Purke brings in a nation-leading 14-0 record and 3.23 ERA, and coach Jim Schlossnagle said he has no worries about the 19-year-old handling the pressure. The 6-foot-4, 180-pounder is coming off an 11-strikeout, three-hit performance over 72⁄3 innings in the super regional opener at Texas. Schlossnagle said the environment in Oma-
ha will be much friendlier than it was in Austin. TCU (51-12) and Florida State (47-18) will open the final series at Rosenblatt Stadium before the event moves to a new downtown stadium in 2011. Tonight’s Bracket 1 game pits a pair of national seeds in No. 3 Florida (47-15) and No. 6 UCLA (48-14). Bracket Two play opens Sunday with Oklahoma (49-16) meeting South Carolina (48-15) followed by No. 1 national seed Arizona State (52-8) taking on Clemson (43-23).

Kahne takes Cup pole at Sonoma SONOMA, Calif. (AP) – Kasey Kahne won the pole Friday at Infineon Raceway in the same car he drove to victory in last year’s race on the road course. Kahne turned a lap of 93.893 mph around the 11-turn, 1.99-mile course in a Ford for Richard Petty Motorsports. He knocked four-time defending series champion Jimmie Johnson from the pole. Johnson, who has never won on a road
course, qualified second at 93.809 mph in a Chevrolet for Hendrick Motorsports. “It’s a great car,” he said. “It’s the same car we ran here last year, minus the engine. We’ve got a new Ford engine that runs really well. I’m looking forward to seeing how it runs throughout the race. Tomorrow (practice) is huge as far as getting the balance right and getting it to turn and hit the corners the way we want to.”
Kurt Busch qualified third and was followed by series points leader Kevin Harvick, Jeff Gordon and Marcos Ambrose. Tony Stewart rebounded from a terrible practice session to qualify seventh, while Bobby Labonte, Greg Biffle and Martin Truex Jr. rounded out the top 10. Mark Martin was 11th and was followed by series wins-leader Denny Hamlin, who has won the last two races and five
overall. Dale Earnhardt Jr., the slowest car in practice, qualified 23rd. Among the three drivers who failed to qualify was Michael Waltrip, who was driving a Toyota with a special paint scheme created as part of a “Sponsafy Your Ride Contest.” The winning submission honored a woman’s 1-year-old grandson who suffers from a rare interstitial lung disease.
Kobe, Lakers savor title

Landon Donovan (top right) of the United States scores against Slovenia goalkeeper Samir Handanovic (left) and Marko Suler during their World Cup group C soccer match at Ellis Park Stadium in Johannesburg, South Africa on Friday. The Americans rallied from a 2-0 deficit for a 2-2 tie. A potential late U.S. goal that would have won the match was disallowed by a controversial referee’s call.
U.S. laments goal that wasn’t JOHANNESBURG (AP) – Maurice Edu kicked the ball into the net. American players jumped around wildly, thinking they had capped a historic comeback, turning a two-goal, first-half deficit into a 3-2 victory over Slovenia in the World Cup. “Then I heard the whistle,” Edu said Referee Koman Coulibaly of Mali had called it off. Over and over, American players asked, “Why?” In English. Then in French. “He just ignored us,” Landon Donovan said. “Or he didn’t understand.” Perhaps Coulibaly, working his first World Cup game, will never explain himself. By the rules, he doesn’t have to speak to the media on game days, and his next availability isn’t until Monday. Perhaps it will remain one of those unsolved soccer mys-
teries. What’s known for now is this: Donovan and Michael Bradley scored second-half goals that did count, and U.S. hopes to reach the second round remained alive with a 2-2 tie Friday night. And for one moment, Edu felt “pure excitement.” It did not last. Now it comes down to Wednesday’s match against Algeria. The top two teams in the group advance, so the U.S. would make the second round with a victory against Algeria, The Americans also could advance if they tie the Algerians while England draws Slovenia, provided the U.S. maintains its advantage in goals scored over the English, currently 3-1. “I’m a little gutted to be honest,” Donovan said. “I don’t know how they stole that last goal from us.”
U.S. WORLD CUP ADVANCEMENT SCENARIOS
---
JOHANNESBURG (AP) – There are two ways for the U.S. to advance to the knockout stage of the World Cup. After two games, Slovenia leads Group C with four points. It has one win and one tie, following a 1-0 victory over Algeria and a 2-2 draw against the United States on Friday. The U.S. and England are tied for second with two points. The two teams tied 1-1 against each other and England drew Algeria 0-0 in Friday’s late game. Algeria is last with one point. The group ends Wednesday with two matches played simultaneously, the U.S. against Algeria in Pretoria, and England against Slovenia in Port Elizabeth. Here is how the Americans could still advance: 1) The United States would advance with a victory over Algeria, which would give it five points. Because England plays Slovenia, one of those teams can’t finish with five. 2) The United States would advance with a draw against Algeria, which would give it three points, as long as England loses to Slovenia OR England-Slovenia ends in a draw AND the U.S. maintains a goal advantage over England. Currently, the U.S. has three goals and England has one. One scenario could lead to lots being drawn for who advances. If the U.S. draws with Algeria and England draws with Slovenia, but England scores two more goals than the U.S. does in its last game, the U.S. and England would be even on all tiebreakers for second place.

LOS ANGELES (AP) – Kobe Bryant sprinted after the ball, which Lamar Odom joyously flung downcourt to burn the remaining seconds in Game 7 of the NBA finals. With the celebration starting behind him, Bryant chased it down and then held it aloft to his teammates. The Los Angeles Lakers’ 16th championship was secure following a gritty 83-79 victory over the Boston Celtics. Bryant’s legs may have been dead, but he didn’t stop running until the buzzer. The two-time finals MVP has a ring for every finger on one hand precisely because he never slows down, even with injuries, the Celtics’ defense and his own erratic shot conspiring against him. That’s why this ring will have a special place in his collection, and this banner in the Staples Center rafters will loom a little larger than the rest to Kobe. “I wanted it so, so bad,” Bryant said. “On top of that, I was on E. Man, I was really, really tired, and the more I tried to push, the more it kept getting away from me.” Out of an unsightly 6-for-24 shooting performance, Bryant led the Lakers to a sweet repeat with 23 points and 15 rebounds Thursday night. While he could barely make a shot or even hold onto the ball at times, Bryant relentlessly drove the lane to earn nine free throws in the fourth quarter while Los Angeles erased a 13-point second-half deficit. The Lakers earned their rings by winning a gritty, grind-it-out Game 7 for the first time in their franchise history. “This one is by far the sweetest, because it’s them,” Bryant said after the Lakers beat Boston for the first time in a Game 7. “This was the hardest one by far. I wanted it so bad, and sometimes when you want it so bad, it slips away from you. My guys picked me up.” While the basketball in Game 7 wasn’t terribly attractive, as evidenced by the Lakers’ 32.5 percent shooting and 12 missed free throws alongside the Celtics’ 15 turnovers and 53-40 rebounding disadvantage, the teams’ collective will and determination still were stirring – and they’ll only get more beautiful with age. Lakers coach Phil Jackson also has his 11th championship, matching Boston great Bill Russell’s total and possibly putting a cap on Jackson’s remarkable career if he decides to leave the Lakers. The Zen Master will have trouble walking away from the chance for a fourth threepeat next year. Exactly two years to the day after Boston beat the Lakers by 39 points to clinch the 2008 title, Los Angeles got revenge for perhaps the most embarrassing loss of Bryant’s career – even if that revenge was as cold as Bryant’s jumper. Bryant said he had to downplay the magnitude of the rivalry during the series, but he came clean while sitting at the podium with his daughters, Natalia and Gianna. With their fifth title in 11 seasons, the Lakers moved one championship behind Boston’s 17 titles for the overall NBA lead.

Europe’s market woes seem to ease PARIS (AP) – The incipient panic about Europe’s debt crisis seems to have subsided into mere pessimism this week, with the euro rebounding and investors encouraged by political leaders’ new willingness to take quick action to calm market fears. The big underlying issues haven’t been erased: Spain is still dogged by speculation it may eventually need a rescue plan similar to the bailout already given to Greece. And many governments are cutting back on welfare programs and other

Bonds boosted as interest rates rise NEW YORK – Interest rates rose in the bond market Friday as a slightly higher stock market weakened demand for Treasurys. The weaker demand for safer investments like Treasurys drove interest rates higher. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note, a widely used benchmark for mortgages and other consumer loans, rose to 3.23 percent from 3.20 percent late Thursday. The price of the note maturing in May 2020 fell 25 cents to $102.3125.
Oil, gas prices end week higher Oil and gasoline prices both edged up Friday, extending gains for the week as the driving season picked up speed and more motorists hit the road. Pump prices rose 1.2 cents to a national average of $2.719 a gallon, according to AAA, Wright Express and Oil Price Information Service. Prices have risen 1.5 cents in the past week but are still 13.3 cents less than a month ago. A year ago, the average price was $2.685 per gallon.
Gold prices pass record set 1 day earlier Gold prices set a record high for a second day Friday as investors continued to question the strength of the global economic recovery. Gold for August delivery rose $9.60 to settle at $1,258.30 an ounce after hitting $1,263.70 an ounce earlier in the day. The previous settlement record was $1,248.70 an ounce, set a day earlier. Many analysts speculate gold could top $1,300 an ounce in the months ahead. ENTERPRISE NEWS SERVICE REPORTS

spending to chip away at their heavy debt burdens – and sometimes facing street protests as a result. Yet positive news from trouble spots Spain and Greece – as well as EU leaders’ united pledge for more banking transparency – helped buoy the euro to $1.2362 Friday, up from a four-year low last week near $1.19, and European stocks held steady. A key decision was the move by European Union leaders at a summit in Brussels to promise they would reveal the results of stress tests designed to show how banks would do if circum-
stances worsen. They indicated the added transparency would show that fears about the health of the banking system are overblown. “I think the market certainly wants to believe that it’s turning the corner, and of course psychological factors are at work here – it’s very difficult for any market to maintain a mood of despondency for month after month,” said Stephen Lewis of Monument Securities. Pressure on the euro will probably be relieved until the month’s end, though in July the currency could once again dip lower, he said.
Unemployment falls in 37 states WASHINGTON (AP) – A majority of states saw their unemployment rates drop in May. But the widespread declines were mainly because people gave up looking for work and were no longer counted. The unemployment rate fell in 37 states and the District of Columbia, the Labor Department said Friday. Six states had increases and seven experienced no change. Forty-one states and the District of Columbia saw a net increase in jobs. But that reflected national data showing a huge gain because of government hiring of temporary census workers. Nevada now has the highest jobless rate in the country, marking the first time in more than four years that Michigan did not hold that distinction. Nevada’s rate climbed to 14 percent. Michigan’s fell to 13.6 percent. Nationally, the unem-
ployment rate dipped to 9.7 percent in May from 9.9 percent in April. But the drop was largely because hundreds of thousands of jobless people stopped searching for work. A total of 431,000 new jobs were added across the country in May, the biggest gain in a decade. Still, the surge came from 411,000 temporary census jobs. Private-sector job growth slowed significantly. Big states led all others in job growth. Texas saw a net gain of 43,600 jobs, California was up 28,300 and New York rose by 21,000. Nevada’s jobless rate rose from 13.7 percent in April. That state has been hurt by the collapse in housing and a downturn in tourism. “Tourism is always one of the areas hardest hit during a recession,” said David Wyss, chief economist at Standard & Poor’s in New York.
Company recalls 15 million pounds of SpaghettiOs WASHINGTON (AP) – Campbell Soup Co. is recalling 15 million pounds of SpaghettiOs with meatballs after a cooker malfunctioned at one of the company’s plants in Texas and left the meat undercooked. The Agriculture Department announced the recall late Thursday. Campbell spokesman Anthony Sanzio said the company is recalling certain lots of the product manufactured since December 2008 “out of an abundance of caution” because officials don’t
know exactly when the cooker at the Paris, Texas, plant malfunctioned. Officials believe it happened recently but aren’t sure, he said. The meatballs that went through the cooker did not get the requisite amount of heat, according to the company. Recalled are certain lots of three varieties of the pasta product often consumed by children: SpaghettiOs with Meatballs, SpaghettiOs A to Z with Meatballs, and SpaghettiOs Fun Shapes with Meatballs (Cars).

Stocks post biggest 2-week gain in ’10 NEW YORK (AP) – Here’s something for investors beaten down by the market’s sharp declines this spring: The Dow Jones industrial average just had its best two weeks since November. The Dow’s gain of 16 points on Friday was relatively modest, but it capped a surge of 5.2 percent over the past two weeks that puts the average nearly halfway back to the high for the year that it reached on April 26. Stocks had a longer winning streak earlier this year, an eight-week stretch that ended in late April, but those gains were more gradual. Then a sharp drop in May and early June brought the Dow down as much as 12.4 percent below its 2010 high, a decline that market analysts call a “correction.” The debate now is focusing on whether that correction phase is over. A correction is generally considered a drop of 10-20 percent from a recent peak. The Dow has risen back 6.5 percent from its lowest close of the year on June 7, but it’s still down 6.7 percent from its 2010 high. “I don’t know that we’re totally through the correction,” said Stu Schweitzer, global markets strategist at JPMorgan’s Private Bank in New York. “I do expect markets to remain quite volatile all through the rest of this year, but I still expect that we’re going to end the year higher.” All three indicators posted solid gains for the week.

Walgreen, CVS strike new deal NEW YORK (AP) – CVS Caremark Corp. and Walgreen Co. have settled a dispute that threatened to change where millions of Americans can fill prescriptions. The companies, which said Friday they have agreed on a multiyear deal but did not disclose its terms, were battling over the amounts Caremark reimburses Walgreen for filling prescriptions for Caremark patients. Shares of both companies rose Friday. Walgreen and CVS do billions of dollars in business together each year, as Walgreen is the largest U.S. drugstore operator and CVS’s Caremark is the third largest prescription benefits manager. It handled drug benefits for about 53 million people last year. At the same time, the CVS drug store chain is Walgreen’s top competitor. Last week, the companies said they would end their relationship and Walgreen would stop accepting Caremark insurance. Walgreen, based in Deerfield, Ill., with more than 7,500 stores across the country, wanted Caremark to pay it more for filling prescriptions, and it wanted Caremark to drop policies encouraging members to fill prescriptions at CVS’s 7,000 stores. Individual plan vary, so even before the recent dispute, some Caremark plans didn’t cover prescriptions filled at Walgreen stores, and they still won’t. Caremark said last week that Walgreen was demanding unreasonable rates that would drive up health care costs for both Caremark patients and benefit sponsors like employers. It said it would stop letting its patients fill prescriptions at Walgreen July 9, although some Walgreen stores would have stayed in the Caremark network longer.
Caterpillar posts strong sales in May NEW YORK (AP) – Caterpillar Inc. said Friday its machine sales worldwide jumped 11 percent in May compared with a year ago as a rebound in North American and Asian business markets helped offset declines in European sales. It was the first time since August 2006 the company has reported year-over-year growth in North America machine sales, said Jefferies & Co. analyst Stephen Volkmann. “While this is in line with our view that the industrial economy is recovering, it is also somewhat stronger than even we had expected,” he added. Caterpillar is the world’s largest maker of
construction and mining equipment. Because its iconic yellow-and-black equipment is used in many different sectors all over the world, the company’s sales are considered an indicator of global economic health. In a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission Thursday, the Peoria, Ill., company said May sales were up 15 percent in North America and surged 38 percent in the Asia Pacific region, but fell in Europe, Africa and the Middle East. Economists expect manufacturing to keep growing in North America and Asia for the rest of the year, but they don’t think it will be as strong as in the first six months of 2010.
Dollar’s value dips

People walk past a Walgreens Pharmacy in San Francisco. CVS Caremark Corp. and Walgreen Co. have settled a dispute Friday that threatened to change where millions of Americans fill prescriptions.
NEW YORK (AP) – The dollar was little changed Friday against major currencies after European Union leaders moved to calm fears of a financial crisis. The dollar lost ground against currencies in emerging markets as stock markets moved higher, increasing traders’ desire to make riskier bets. In late trading in New York, the euro slipped to $1.2364 from $1.2379 late Thursday. In overnight trading, it hit a high of $1.2416, its strongest level since late May. The euro has risen
from a four-year low below $1.19 on June 7 after positive economic data from around the world. In other trading in New York, the British pound dipped to $1.4799 from 1.4810, while the dollar slipped to 90.73 Japanese yen from 90.82 yen. The dollar edged down to 1.0222 Canadian dollars from 1.0284 Canadian dollars, and fell to 1.1098 Swiss francs from 1.1126 francs. It also lost some ground versus currencies in emerging markets in Latin American and Asia, as well as “commodity currencies” such as the Australian dollar.

DEADLY TWISTERS
Embattled BP CEO removed from spill oversight
AP
Scott Kern sorts through some of his belongings in Wadena, Minn., where the frame of his mobile home sits (at left) where his neighbor’s garage used to be. Tornadoes that were part of a turbulent system that fueled twisters across the state, ripped through Wadena Thursday night. Officials said 34 people were treated at Wadena’s hospital for storm-related injuries, but as of Friday morning only one remained hospitalized with injuries that were not life-threatening. Kern sought shelter in a nearby Wal-Mart with his two children while his wife was away.
Minnesota digs out from tornadoes ALBERT LEA, Minn. (AP) – As tornadoes bore down on southern Minnesota, Angie Woodside called her in-laws and said they should rush to her house west of Albert Lea, where there was a basement to take cover. Her mother-in-law, Kathy Woodside, refused. “She told me she would not go down in one,” Angie Woodside said Friday, a day after Kathy was killed when a tornado tossed her 200 feet from her house into a nearby field. “She just thought the whole thing would collapse on top of her. She would rather not be underneath everything.” Kathy Woodside, 66, was one of three people killed Thursday by a turbulent system that fueled twisters across Minnesota. Also killed were two northwestern Minnesota residents: Margie Schulke, 79, of Almora, whose home was de-

A flipped bus lies surrounded by debris in a school bus yard in Wadena, Minn,on Friday after severe storms ripped through northwestern Minnesota Thursday night. The National Weather Service collected 36 reports of tornado sightings Thursday, with northwestern and southern Minnesota hit hardest. If the sightings are all confirmed, it would exceed the previous state record of 27 in one day, in 1992. stroyed by a tornado; and Wes Michaels, 58, of Mentor, whose gas station was leveled. Dozens more were injured, including Kathy Woodside’s husband, Ron, who was hos-
pitalized Friday in Rochester. The storms damaged several hundred homes and buildings and toppled trees and power lines. The most serious damage was in the northwestern Minnesota
city of Wadena, where officials reported 232 homes were hit, and in a rural area just west of Albert Lea, where about 60 rural properties saw damage. State officials reported 39 tornado touchdowns. If that figure is confirmed, it would exceed the previous state record of 27 sightings in one day, in 1992. More severe weather rolled through the Midwest on Friday, with hail, heavy rain and wind gusts up to 80 mph reported in Iowa and Illinois. Residents of Wadena, a town of about 4,300 people 70 miles southeast of Fargo, N.D., were allowed back into their homes on a caseby-case basis Friday. City crews were clearing debris and lumber from the streets, and Mayor Wayne Wolden said cleanup efforts likely would not start in earnest until Saturday.
NEW ORLEANS (AP) – BP removed Chief Executive Tony Hayward from day-to-day oversight of the Gulf oil spill crisis a day after he was pummeled by lawmakers in an appearance on Capitol Hill, the company’s chairman said Friday. Carl-Henric Svanberg told Britain’s Sky News television that Hayward “is now handing over the operations, the daily operations to (BP Managing Director) Bob Dudley,” over- Hayward shadowing news that after many setbacks BP was finally making real progress in siponing and burning off oil from the underwater gusher. Coast Guard Adm. Thad Allen announced earlier Friday that a newly expanded containment system is capturing or incinerating more than 1 million gallons of oil daily, the first time it has approached its peak capacity. And the system will soon grow. By late June, the oil giant hopes it can keep nearly 90 percent of the flow from hitting the ocean. Allen also said the Coast Guard is ramping up efforts to capture the crude closer to shore with the help of private boats. As of Friday morning, between 65 million and 121.6 million gallons of oil have gushed into the Gulf of Mexico, based on federal daily flow rate estimates. Meanwhile, the head of a new office created to process claims from the BP oil spill says a plan to handle the remaining damage claims will be in place in 30 to 45 days. Kenneth Feinberg was chosen by President Barack Obama and BP to oversee the Independent Claims Facility. His comments in Jackson, Miss., on Friday come as the House Judiciary Committee says data it’s collected shows that BP has paid less than 12 percent of the dollar value of claims submitted.
Derailment worker killed by crane fall JACKSON TOWNSHIP, Ind. (AP) – Authorities in Indiana say a worker cleaning up after a train derailment was killed when a crane fell on him. The accident happened Thursday in Jackson Township in northwest Indiana. The Times of Munster says the Porter County sheriff’s department identified the victim as 43-year-old Michael Bowling of Dyer. Sheriff’s spokesman Chris Eckert says Bowling was overseeing the clearing of rail cars and containers when the crane became unstable and fell. Bowling wasn’t operating the crane. No other injuries were reported. The Federal Railroad Administration is investigating.

Obama tells G-20 nations to seal economic recovery WASHINGTON (AP) – President Barack Obama is appealing to the world’s major economies not to waver in their efforts to support a sustained rebound from the near collapse of the global economic system in the fall of 2008. “We must act together to strengthen the recovery,” Obama said in his letter to
other leaders of the Group of 20 major industrial countries, written in advance of next week’s summit meeting in Toronto. But Obama’s appeal for unity underscored a number of divisions that have developed between the major powers. Many European nations, rattled by the debt crisis
that had engulfed Greece, have started to trim their own budget deficits while China has rejected calls by the United States to allow its currency to rise in value as a way to boost sales of American and other foreign products in China. Obama referred in an oblique way to those disagreements in the letter,
avoiding mentioning other countries by name. “Our highest priority in Toronto must be to safeguard and strengthen the recovery,” he said in the letter, which the White House released on Friday. “We worked exceptionally hard to restore growth; we cannot let it falter or lose strength now.”
NEW YORK (AP) – The son of former ABC News anchor Ted Koppel, who was found dead in a stranger’s apartment after a day of bar-hopping, overdosed on a lethal combination of drugs and alcohol, the medical examiner’s office said Friday. Andrew Koppel’s May 31 death was ruled an accident. He died from acute intoxication due to the combined effects of alcohol; heroin; cocaine; diazepam, the generic form of Valium; and Levamisole, a drug used to cut other drugs, said Ellen Borakove, a spokeswoman for the city medical examiner’s office. Police had said no criminality was suspected. The 40-year-old Koppel had been out most of May 30 drinking heavily with Russell Wimberly. Wimberly, who initially said they had met for the first time that day, said Friday they had known each other about a month. He would not comment further.

Old-fashioned concoctions clean wood best CAREY BROTHERS & REBECCA COLE ON THE HOUSE
---
W
ith proper care, natural wood finishes in the home are beautiful. Cabinets, wall and ceiling paneling and fine wood furniture can give a home’s interior a certain richness that is difficult to achieve in other ways. The natural beauty of wood can be diminished over time as a result of a buildup of wax or cooking grease or marred from white rings. Prevention plays a big part in keeping finishes in a home looking good, and not just those made of wood. Properly sized ventilation fans in the kitchen, bathrooms, and laundry room will exhaust excessive moisture and cooking grease that can otherwise wreak havoc on finishes. Airborne dust is attracted to moisture and can form several layers on the surface of wood, which can obscure its natural beauty. Worse yet, cooking grease buildup results in fingerprints each time a cabinet door or drawer is opened. We rely on some old-fashioned concoctions to clean up the natural wood finishes in our homes that we think you might like. White rings are damage to the waxed finish and not to the wood. To remove them, make sure that the surface is clean and dry. Next, place a small amount of mayonnaise directly over the ring. A teaspoon or two will usually do the trick. Cover the area with a piece of plastic wrap and allow it to sit for about thirty minutes. Remove the plastic wrap and, using a nylon scouring pad, lightly rub in the mayonnaise working in the direction of the grain. Wipe up all of the mayon-
Q: My husband and I installed a prefinished Bruce hardwood floor in our new home two years ago. We were told that the finish was baked-on urethane. When construction of our house was complete we could not get all the construction dirt off the floor. We returned to the dealer who sold us the floor and he recommended a Minwax product called, Duraluster. The floor was beautiful, but eventually got very dirty looking. Dust mop and vacuum did not remove the dirt from the finish. – Linda A: First and most important, when hardwood is the flooring of choice it should always be the last construction item to be installed. All hardwood flooring, regardless of brand or type, is highly susceptible to damage. If a hardwood floor must be installed before construction is completed, it should be covered with a thin layer of plywood to prevent damage. Bruce and Hartco are two large manufacturers of pre-finished hardwood flooring. And they both offer stain, finish coat, cleaners and wax that are compatible with their factory-finished products.
naise. Restore the luster to the area with pure lemon oil or paste wax. An alternative to the mayonnaise technique is to use toothpaste or cigar ash. Simply rub a dab of toothpaste or moistened cigar ash into the wood surface with your finger. Then wipe the area dry and finish the job by applying a touch of pure lemon oil or paste wax. Old sticky finishes can be cleaned up

NORTH CAROLINA GUILFORD COUNTY IN THE GENERAL COURT OF JUSTICE DISTRICT COURT DIVISION 10 JA 61 IN THE MATTER OF: JONBEINA DANKO A Female Child born on or about December 24, 2009, in High Point, Guilford County, North Carolina. NOTICE OF SERVICE BY PROCESS OF PUBLICATION TO: JESSICA DANKO, MOTHER of the above named juvenile. TAKE NOTICE that a Petition for Non-Secure Custody was filed on May 12, 2010, in the Office of the Clerk of Superior Court, Juvenile Division, High Point, Guilford County, North Carolina. An adjudication hearing is scheduled to be heard on July 22, 2010. You must answer this Petition within forty (40) days of June 12, 2010, exclusive of that date. You are entitled to attend any hearing affecting your rights. You are entitled to appointed counsel if you cannot afford to hire one, provided you contact the Clerk immediately to request counsel. Upon your failure to so answer, the Petitioner will apply to the Court for the relief requested. This the 10TH day of June 2010. ___________________________ Matthew J. Turcola Deputy County Attorney 505 E. Green Drive High Point, NC 27260 336/845-5015 June 12, 19 & 26, 2010
Hardwood floors are beautiful to say the least, but they require a high degree of maintenance and they do scratch waxed or not. As a matter of fact, a lady’s high-heel shoes can do irreparable damage to the surface of a hardwood floor even hard rock maple will dent. This kind of damage is amplified when veneered hardwood-flooring is used. That is, when a layer of hardwood veneer is applied to a soft-woodbacking. Another concern is finish. When two different urethane finishes are used on the same floor, chemical incompatibility can prevent the second finish from curing properly. Also, when wax is applied to a urethane finish the wax must be removed and reapplied every year or so. This is true even in the case of a good product like Minwax. This brief bit of hind-sight is offered for next time. For this time, wash off all wax, give the floor a thorough sanding with 220-grit-nylon sanding pads (you’ll need several) and refinish with a Bruceurethane.

dip a rag in the cleaner and ring it out well. Do a small section at a time and wipe dry. When the cleaner cools, the oil and turpentine will separate from the water. Properly dispose of it as you would paint and make a new batch; don’t try to reheat it. Greasy finger smudges around cabinet door and drawer pulls can be removed using a bar of Lava soap. Rub the soap into a wet rag and scrub. If that doesn’t work, rub the Lava onto a damp nylon scouring pad, scrub, rinse, and wipe dry. After using a nylon scouring pad, touch up the wood surface with Old English Scratch Cover or pure lemon oil. Mineral spirits or paint thinner are other ways to get rid of the sticky buildup around cabinet handles. Simply pour a little onto a soft cloth and rub vigorously. Dull finishes can be brightened by using a solution of vinegar and water. Mix one tablespoon of vinegar and one quart of water. Using a cheesecloth, work a small area and wipe dry. Once all of the washing has been done, complete the job by polishing the surface with pure lemon oil. Distressed or dry-looking wood can magically be brought back to life with a little pure lemon oil and a soft cloth. Lemon oil is a great wood moisturizer. It restores oils that have evaporated over time and helps prevent drying and cracking. The lemon oil also will give the wood a rich sheen and provide a delightful fragrance. Pure lemon oil can also be used as a cleaner to remove wax buildup. Apply the lemon oil and let it stand for about twenty minutes before wiping it dry. More than one application may be required for heavy wax buildup.
