District seeks TIF school grant BY DAVID NIVENS ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

GUILFORD COUNTY – A $12.3 million grant request recently approved by Guilford County Schools officials could help teachers improve one High Point school and nine others. The Board of Education will seek a federal Teacher Incentive Fund grant to support a 2011-12 teacher pay plan the board approved in March. he five-year TIF grant would support an incentives plan at Montlieu Math and Science Academy and nine other elementary and middle schools with high teacher turnover rates and historically low

Officials may scale down teacher performance pay plan . 2A scores on end-of-grade tests. “We have a strong chance to win this grant,” Amy Holcombe, executive director of talent development, told the school board. The TIF grant would offer recruitment, performance and leadership incentives for many principals, teachers and other school workers in line with the proposed Mission Possible incentives replacement.

“Some positions at these schools stay open for weeks and months,” Holcombe said. “Incentives would help get teachers to the job.” The district would pay 1 percent guaranteed bonuses to a group of “bonus” schools while others in a “performance” group would have to show academic improvement to qualify for a bonus. Higher testscore growth would mean higher incentives, Holcombe said. The board passed the proposal by a 7-2 vote, with board members Nancy Routh and Garth Hebert voting against it. dnivens@hpe.com | 888-3626

TRIAD – The U.S. Supreme Court’s groundbreaking decision Monday that expands the scope of the Second Amendment right to possess firearms could have wide-ranging implications for the political debate on the contentious topic, area political observers say. In a 5-4 decision, the Supreme Court ruled that Americans have the right to own a gun for self-defense regardless of where they live. A majority of the justices ruled for the plaintiffs who challenged a handgun ban implemented by the city of Chicago. The ruling means that state, county and municipal governments will have a higher legal bar to clear in order to implement restrictions on firearms. The Supreme Court’s decision to enshrine the right to bear arms as a constitutionally protected right

might lower the gun control issue as a campaign topic, since elected officials will have less say through legislation because of the constitutional protection, said Charles Prysby, professor of political science at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. “On the other hand, I can see it working out the other way. Some people may cite this as conservative judicial activism, especially if the court in future decisions makes the definition of reasonable restriction fairly limited,” Prysby said. Another analyst said he doesn’t believe the ruling will lower the political boil over gun issues. “It (the ruling) is going to lead the way to a lot of lawsuits about gun control laws around the country. It’ll be like a low-grade fever now for the next five to 10 years – state by state, county by county, city by city, you’ll have folks on both sides

Mission Possible replacement could be scaled down BY DAVID NIVENS ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

Elsewhere

GUILFORD COUNTY – The eventual replacement for Mission Possible could be a scaled down teacher performance pay plan. The 10 TIF grant schools district officials approved last week are not part of the district’s expiring Mission Possible incentives program that serves 30 schools and costs $4.4 million a year. A new plan would start in August 2011. “We are looking at scaling down the program for those 30 schools after a year and supporting them with local funds,” Amy Holcombe executive director of talent development, told the school board. “We want a model that does not require an increase in local funds.” Possible plan changes include

School officials OK new element of proposed incentive pay plan. 1A dropping teacher recruitment incentives in favor of performance incentives at the 30 schools. Board member Garth Hebert of High Point, supporter of incentives, said he did not favor dropping recruitment incentives. “Our turnover rate shows we still need recruitment incentives,” Hebert said. “I have not seen that the performance of the district has improved because of the performance incentives.” Mission Possible provides bonuses for principals, English, math and elementary school teachers in 20 schools where turnover is

a problem and for teaching statetested courses. Grants allow 10 other schools to participate. Unlike Mission Possible schools, all employees at target schools in the new program, including cafeteria workers and custodians, would earn bonuses. In the proposed new plan, the maximum recruitment and incentive award for math teachers would go up to $16,500, from $14,000, for those teaching tested subjects. The bonus for other math teachers would drop from $14,000 to a maximum of $6,500. Those at the next highest level would be third to fifth grade teachers who could get a maximum bonus of $8,000, up from $6,500. Custodians and bus drivers could get a bonus of as much as $750. dnivens@hpe.com | 888-3626

2 Lexington officers hospitalized after being hit by semi ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

DAVIDSON COUNTY – Two officers with the Lexington Police Department were hospitalized after a tractor-trailer hit them Monday morning on Interstate 85, according to Davidson County 9111. The accident happened just after 10 a.m. at milemarker 90, located just outside the city limits of Lexington. Police said Alberto Abreu, the driver of the tractor-trailer, sideswiped two patrol cars as well as the vehicle they pulled over, causing injuries to both officers. The interstate was closed for several hours, but reopened around 1 p.m. Josh Myers, a supervisor with Davidson County 911, said officers were conducting a routine traffic stop when the tractortrailer hit them. Myers said it appears the driver of the tractor-trailer wasn’t paying attention,

ran off the right side of the road and struck the officers while they had a car stopped. “They were taken as a precautionary to the hospital,” Myers said. “They are just being observed, but they are OK.” According to a Lexington Police Department press release, Officer F. Huff was transported to Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center and Officer T. Mahan was transported to Lexington Memorial Hospital. Both were later released. The driver and the two occupants involved in the traffic stop were not injured. Abreu, 50, of Miami Florida, was charged with failure to carry driver’s license, failure to move over or reduce speed and failure to move over causing injury. Members of the N.C. State Highway Patrol and Davidson County Sheriff’s Office assisted Lexington police.

The blaze gutted the home’s interior and destroyed the roof over the left half of the residence, rendering the house a total loss.

Matthew Pluskota, who lives across the street, said his wife saw something flickering outside while she was up fixing a bottle for their 3-monthold baby. The house was completely engulfed, and Pluskota notified sleeping neighbors in surrounding homes, who gathered outside. “You would see her around to wave to,” he said. “It’s very sad.” This is the first fire fatality in the city since September 2007.

Drilling moratorium is bad policy Last week, our minds have been on Afghanistan and not the oil spill in the gulf. While our president has put a six-month moratorium on drilling in the gulf, where the deepest drilling is 5,000 feet, it appears that they had promised to give Petro Bras, Brazil, $2 billion dollars for offshore drilling at nearly 15,000 feet off Brazil. That’s a company in which George Soros, a friend of the President’s, had $900 million invested. The morotorium will ruin our oil business and put thousands of American people out of work. Less jobs for Americans, while we lend money to a very profitable company in Brazil to drill. Also, if the president had waived the Jones Act, this spill would have been contained weeks before it could hit our shore line. Many countries after the third day with more experience offered to help and the president refused their help. BILLY R. HUGHES Lexington

T

he pressure is on this week for lawmakers to approve financial reform legislation and get it to President Obama for his signature by July 4. Just as was the case with health care reform legislation, Congress will be passing a 2,000-page document that few, if any, of those voting on it know exactly what it contains. Hailed by The Associated Press as “an election-year salve for public anger over the Wall Street risk-taking that cost millions their jobs, home and nest eggs,” the legislation is more about creating a new federal agency, expanding government invasion of the private sector and – typical of the Chicago-type politics engineered by those with the most influence in the Obama administration – pandering for votes. All of the financial industry needs tougher enforcement of rules and regulations, not just certain categories. The public is being told this legislation is designed to protect investors, consumers and taxpayers in general and that lenders no longer would be able to make a loan without verifying that the borrower can repay it. Sounds great, doesn’t it? But the legislation does nothing to impose tighter restrictions on Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, which the AP describes as “the mortgage giants who have benefited from huge federal bailouts and whose questionable lending helped trigger the housing and economic meltdowns.” What’s good for the goose (private sector) is good for the gander (public sector). When this measure becomes law, architects of earlier laws that all but forced financial institutions to lend money to people they knew couldn’t or wouldn’t repay will be absolved of any wrongdoing. Ironically, they are being hailed as heroes. Lawmakers early last Friday morning honored the work of House Finance Committee Chairman Barney Frank, D-Mass., and Senate Banking Committee Chairman Christopher Dodd, D-Conn., by naming the bill for them. Talk about falling into an outhouse and coming out smelling like roses ... According to reports: A 10-member council of regulators (translate that as czars) led by the Treasury secretary will monitor threats to the financial system, can decide which companies are so big or interconnected that their failures could upend the financial system. Those companies then would be subject to tougher regulation. If one of them “teetered,” the government could liquidate it, and the council could overturn new rules proposed by the consumer protection agency. Do you detect a little double-talk about the measure being designed to protect the consumer? In other words, kowtow or be taken over by a government bureaucrat. To a large extent this legislation is another power grab by government – an administration that never wants a serious crisis to go to waste – all conjured behind closed doors until deals were cut and just the right spin was put on it to make it appear to be protecting you. Enjoy!

North Carolina politicians evolve into a confusing lot

I

admit it. I’m confused. North Carolina politicians are confusing me. Which state politicians are confusing me? The leaders of the North Carolina General Assembly, for starters. Their position appears to be that allowing private citizens to set up and play video-gambling machines at legal establishments would be morally abominable, even if the resulting business would throw off tens if not hundreds of millions of tax dollars into state and local treasuries. North Carolina governments shouldn’t be paying their bills from illgotten gambling revenues, they say. But these same legislative leaders thought it was OK several years ago for the government to set up its own gambling enterprises, under the purview of the state lottery commission, and take an active part in encouraging North Carolinians to gamble to generate tax revenue. These same leaders also think it’s OK for North Carolina governments to own and control liquor stores, gouging customers with high prices and poor service to generate yet more revenue from the sale of demon rum. And these same legislative leaders want to give tens of millions of dollars in tax credits to Hollywood filmmakers who choose North Carolina as the location for making movies that often contain graphic violence, nudity, and prurient material. If their real concern were government tolerating and encouraging immoral behavior, their policies would be different. The only explanation that makes any sense is that these politicians simply want to increase the ability of government to own, control, and manipulate private businesses, so as to maximize both government revenue and their own power. In which case, they should at least have the decency to stop invoking the

subject of morality. State legislators aren’t the only politicians whose words and deeds are confusing to me. Take those Democrats trying to defend Bob Etheridge’s “Who Are You?” meltdown. While OPINION not exactly excusing the longtime congressman’s John behavior, they seem to Hood think that the mysteri■■■ ous identity of the two “students” with video cameras represents a mitigating factor. Weren’t the two videographers just vicious Republican operatives using a carefully baited trap to set up Etheridge? Well, let’s say they were. So what? Having watched the video several times, I find it incomprehensible that any reasonable person would react the way Etheridge did to a couple of kids in suits asking if a Democratic congressman “fully support[ed] the Obama agenda.” Egads! I wonder how violent Etheridge would have become had the two miscreants done something really provocative, such as challenging him to a game of Scrabble or demanding that he abstain from immanentizing the eschaton. In his righteous indignation, the feeble Mr. Etheridge – who, it was recently reported in the Southern Pines Pilot, has a history of using physical force on young critics – might have felt compelled to pull a knife on those scary young punks in neckties. I just hope that, in my confused state, no North Carolina politician has the audacity to accost me on a public sidewalk this afternoon and asks me the time. I can’t be held responsible for what might happen. JOHN HOOD is president of the John Locke Foundation and publisher of CarolinaJournal.com.

China says 107 people trapped in a landslide

Alex gains strength in Gulf VILLAHERMOSA, Mexico (AP) – Hurricane watches were in effect Monday for a stretch of Gulf coast in southern Texas and northern Mexico as Tropical Storm Alex gained strength and appeared on track to become a Category 3 hurricane before it makes landfall later this week. Forecasters said the storm’s path could push oil from the massive Gulf oil spill farther inland. Alex was swirling through the Gulf of Mexico with winds of 60 mph on a path that would take it very near the Mexico-U.S. border sometime on Thursday, said the National Hurricane Center in Miami. The storm is expected to become a hurricane today, and could build winds as high as 120 mph by Wednesday.

BEIJING (AP) – A landslide caused by heavy rains trapped at least 107 people Monday in southwestern China and there was little hope for their survival, a local official said. Rescue efforts were hindered by rain that threatened to wash more mud down hill slopes. Many homes were buried when the landslide struck the village of Dazhai in Guizhou province on Monday afternoon after days of rain, a resident helping in the rescue effort, Huang Pangzun, told The Associated Press by phone.

The number of casualties was not immediately known, said an official in Guizhou province who would give only his surname, Xue. Another official, interviewed by state broadcaster CCTV, said nearly half a hill had collapsed, engulfing a wide area in soil. CCTV showed still images of rescuers in orange overalls heading to the site on foot along a winding mountain road and later bent over a large mound of earth, tugging at large concrete slabs buried in it.

Large areas of southern China have been hit by flooding in the last week, with at least 239 people killed and another 109 missing – not including those from Monday’s landslide. More than 3 million people have fled their homes over the past two weeks, according to the Ministry of Civil Affairs. On Sunday, floodwaters began receding in the hard-hit south and workers finished repairing a dike breach that forced the evacuation of 100,000 people.

City may lose employer Winston-Salem OKs incentives to draw drink distributor BY PAUL B. JOHNSON ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

TRIAD – A business in north High Point, which appears to have approached the city of Winston-Salem about relocating there, may be about to get its wish. The Winston-Salem

Winston-Salem reports it would receive $7,480 in yearly tax benefits if Wisdom Beverage relocated there.

Wisdom Beverage, which now occupies a location on Eagle Hill Drive. The company distributes imported beer and wine, as well as energy drinks, across North Carolina. Wisdom Beverage, which also has operations in Durham and the Outer Banks, reportedly would shift at least 50 jobs from its northern High Point operation to Winston-Salem. Company officials City Council last week have been tight-lipped and approved up to $15,000 in have not publicly released economic incentives for details on their plans,

even as Wisdom Beverage receives an incentives pledge from Winston-Salem. The city of Winston-Salem reports it would receive $7,480 in yearly tax benefits from the presence of Wisdom Beverage. High Point officials have a standing policy of usually not discussing potential employers with whom they may or may not be negotiating, but High Point Economic Development Corp. President Loren Hill said Monday that Wisdom Bev-

erage didn’t contact his office “and we have had no interaction with them.” Hill said High Point officials understand from the owner of the building on Eagle Hill Drive that Wisdom Beverage’s sublease is expiring. “We have been told that the company had purchased a building in Winston-Salem before the recent incentives public hearing of our neighboring city,” Hill said. pjohnson@hpe.com | 888-3528

tion of Central and Western North Carolina. The Make-A-Wish Foundation is responsible for granting wishes for children with life-threatening medical conditions. The average cost for a wish to be granted is $6,000. In recent years, the Picnic in the Plaza events have raised more than $35,000 for the organization. Miranda Hooper, director of marketing and public relations for 98.7 Simon, said she knows this year will be a success. “Last year, the event raised over $13,000, enough money to grant two wishes,” Hooper said. “This will be the fifth year for Picnic in the Plaza and will not be the last.” The event has always benefitted the Make-A-Wish Foundation. The Central and Western North Carolina Chapter was founded in Greensboro in 1985 by Dr. Jerry Clark in honor of his wife Charlotte. The chapter covers 51 counties from Alamance County west. They have never turned down the wish of an eligible child. The last Wednesday of every month through October will have a Picnic in the Plaza event at different Triad locations including the Governmental Plaza in Downtown Greensboro. Every year it picks locations in Winston-Salem, Greensboro, High Point and Burlington to have the Picnic in the Plaza.

Game changer? BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

DAVIDSON COUNTY – Thomasville resident Don Swink is awaiting an answer from the Davidson County Board of Elections on whether he will be eligible to be on the ballot in November for the Davidson County sheriff race. Swink, who ran unsuccessfully for sheriff in 2006, said he turned in 5,874 signatures this month in hopes to get on the ballot as an unaffiliated candidate. He had been working since early January to get the signatures of 4 percent of the county’s 100,000 registered voters to be placed on the ballot. Swink will need at least 4,021 signatures validated by elections officials to get on the ballot. Those who signed Swink’s petition must be registered voters in Davidson County. To collect the signatures, Swink said he treated the entire process like a job, going door to door, getting signatures during events like parades and standing outside of the N.C. DMV office in Thomasville. If Swink gets all of the

signatures validated, he would be the first one in Davidson County to get his or her name on the ballot through the petition process. Ruth Huneycutt, director of the Davidson County Board

Thomasville resident Don Swink will need at least 4,021 signatures of registered Davidson County voters validated by elections officials to get on the ballot. of Elections, said her office has until July 8 to process all of the signatures. As of Monday morning, the office had validated 2,570 signatures, she said. Swink is confident he has enough signatures to be on the ballot.

YOUR COMMUNITY. YOUR NEWSPAPER.

“I feel like if anything knocks me out, it will simply be the names that you can’t read,” he said. “I feel like I have enough.” Swink said he changed his party affiliation from Democrat to unaffiliated because he felt “disenfranchised” with the party. He also said his unhappiness with the current sheriff’s office administration caused him to make the attempt to be on the ballot. As sheriff, he would like to decrease the sheriff’s departmental budget, hold town-hall meetings and get more patrols in neighborhoods. “I would like the deputies going up to the home when there is no problem, introducing themselves, giving them a card and letting them know they are working in that area,” he said. If the Davidson County Board of Elections clears him to be on the ballot, Swink would face Democrat Tommy Evans and incumbent Sheriff David Grice in November. dignasiak@hpe.com | 888-3657

Nation’s longest serving senator dies WASHINGTON (AP) – Senator Robert C. Byrd, a son of West Virginia coal country who became a passionate and often feared advocate for the state and the Senate he loved, died Monday at age 92. The Democrat’s 51 years in the Senate made him the longest serving senator in history. In many ways, Byrd embodied the changes the nation has undergone in the past half century. A onetime segregationist and opponent of civil rights legislation, he evolved into a liberal hero as one of the earliest and most vocal foes of the Iraq war and a supporter of the rights of gays to serve in the military. As the Senate opened Monday, Byrd’s desk was draped in black cloth with a bowl of white roses. Flags outside the White House and the Capitol flew at half-staff.

Grandmother’s sweet treats are causing sour feelings

D

ear Abby: My parents live nearby and are extremely helpful with my young children. My mom feels the need to be the “fun� grandma, and her way of accomplishing it is to always have sweet treats available for the kids in her home. In my home, she allows them to skip vegetables at dinner and loads them up with dessert. Because she is helping me out I ignore this, but every once in a while I ask her in front of the kids to refrain from giving them sweets. My children recently told me that the second I walk out the door she goes and gets the sweets and hands them out. They all told me they do not have to say a word – she just does it. I feel this is disrespectful to me and sets a poor example for my children. Should I say something, or am I overreacting? – Sweet Sue in California Dear Sweet Sue: By all means “say something� to your mother. What she’s doing may be wellintentioned, but she is doing your children no favor by creating and indulging their appetite for sugar. When she’s at your house, TELL her what you want the kids to have as snacks and for dessert. And when they’re at her place, bring approved snacks that you prefer she serve. By going behind your back she is undercutting your authority as a par-

ADVICE

ent. You’re lucky your children told you what’s happening so you can put your foot down.

Dear Abby

Dear Abby: I ■■■have been a security guard for more than three years, and I’m dismayed at the treatment I’ve received. I am a person and deserve to be treated as such. I can’t tell you how many times I have been verbally abused because I simply asked someone to show an ID. Security guards are here to protect people and property. Please remember that the next time you are asked to show identification or sign in. Thank you. – Mary in Sunnyvale, Calif. Dear Mary: After reading your letter, I spoke to several security officers and asked about their experiences. They all said that when asking someone to show ID, it’s important to approach the person in a friendly, non- confrontational manner – because sometimes it’s not what is said but the way it is said that causes people to take offense. One female officer stated that males sometimes give her “attitude� because she is a woman. But on the other side of the

coin, women liked the idea of a female officer. Dear Abby: My view of feminism is very broad and is based on the belief that women are – and should be – politically, socially and economically equal to men. I am dumbfounded when I hear young women proudly proclaim that they are not feminists after learning that I am. What is the appropriate response when comments such as, “I’m not a feminist – I expect men to take care of everything for me!� are directed toward me? – Flabbergasted Feminist in Austin, Texas Dear Flabbergasted: Smile and ask, “And what are you going to do when they don’t?� Dear Abby: I am a 27-year-old, heterosexual female in a long-term, happy relationship with a man. However, I often find myself checking out other women’s bodies. It doesn’t turn me on or anything – I just look to compare, I think. Am I normal, or do I need professional help? – Straight in Pennsylvania Dear Straight: Yes, and no.

Respond quickly to heart attack BY NINA HAMMOND

Y

our heart is a muscle that needs oxygen to survive. A heart attack occurs when the blood flow that brings oxygen and nutrients to the heart muscle is severely reduced or cut off completely. Plaque, which is made up of fat, cholesterol and other substances, can build up on artery walls over time. This plaque can rupture, causing a blood clot to form and cut off blood supply. The lack of oxygen can starve the heart muscle and lead to tissue death and permanent damage to the heart. The longer the tissue goes without oxygen, the more damage occurs. The medical term for heart attack is myocardial infarction, often referred to as an MI. The symptoms of a heart attack usually, but not always, include chest pain or pressure. Other symptoms may include shortness of breath, discomfort in other body parts such as one or both arms, neck, jaw or back, as well as nausea, weakness, light-headedness and breaking out in a cold sweat. The most common symptom in women is also chest discomfort, but women are more likely than men to experience the other symptoms. Not all heart attacks include crushing chest pain. Often the symptoms are milder and difficult to identify. If you or someone you are with experience any of these symptoms, especially if more than one, do not wait for more than a few minutes to call 911. Activating the emergency response system is the fastest way to get lifesaving treatment. EMS can begin treatment on arrival and improve survival chances. It is better to act and get checked out than to wait because you are not sure. Every year thousands of people survive a heart attack. The key is early response to save critical heart muscle. Remember, time is muscle.

BLONDIE

White men do get razor bumps, but not in the numbers that black men get them. Shaving the hair leaves the hair with a spear-like end. Tightly coiled hair curls downward after it’s cut, and the sharpened end pierces the skin. It’s very much like a splinter sticking into the skin. The hair acts like a foreign body and inflames the skin. Soon a bump – similar to a pimple – appears. The official name of this condition is pseudofolliculitis barbae (SUED-oh fuh-LICK-uLITE-us BAR-bay). You must give your face a vacation from shaving. Don’t shave for a month, or longer if any bumps remain. You can trim facial hair with scissors. Get a magnifying mirror. Use it to free the buried end of the hair from the skin by prying it loose with a sterile needle. The embedded hair forms a loop through which you pass the needle. If this is too much for you, have someone else do it with a

Mary Loftin’s husband had her SUV shrink-wrapped in an effort to find her a job as an X-ray technologist.

Honk if you’re hiring Woman has unique way of looking for a job BY JIMMY TOMLIN ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

H

IGH POINT – If you can’t read the three bumper stickers on Guy and Mary Loftin’s 2002 Isuzu Rodeo, you probably don’t need to be on the road, because they’re huge. The Loftins have taken jobhunting to a new level, plastering their vehicle with three gigantic bumper stickers – one on either side and one on the rear hatch – advertising Mary’s services as an X-ray technologist. The stickers, which resemble vehicle wraps used by companies for advertising, read: “Registered X-ray Technologist Needs Work: HONK IF YOU’RE HIRING.” They also include Mary’s cell phone number and e-mail address. Guy, a city of High Point firefighter, came up with the

creative idea after watching his wife struggle to find a job. “I was just trying to figure out a way to do something different to get her noticed,” he explains. “I started thinking, ‘What about

’I was just trying to figure out a way to do something different to get her noticed.’ Guy Loftin Husband of job seeker a mobile resumé kinda thing?’ I knew of a guy who did car wraps, and we came up with the idea together. I think it looks pretty good.” So does Mary, although she admits she raised an eyebrow when he first told her about it.

“My husband is one of those go-getter types,” she says. “He showed me the initial drawings of what he wanted to put on the car, and I thought it just might be crazy enough to work.” Mary’s hopeful, because nothing else has worked. In 2005, she was laid off from a textile company she had worked at for almost 20 years. She went to Forsyth Technical Community College and in May 2009 received her associate’s degree in X-ray technology, ready to find a job. Obviously, she’s still looking. “I’ve had about three interviews, but with my lack of experience, trying to get in the door has been difficult,” she says. “And people are just not hiring right now. Out of 25 classmates at Forsyth Tech, a little over half have a job now, and most of those are part time. Maybe four out of 25 have full-time jobs.” It’s no wonder, then, that Mary

went along with her husband’s plan to help her find a job. So far, though – after about a month of being on the road – the bumper stickers haven’t resulted in any job offers. “People look at it, they read it, and I’ve had a lot of interesting conversations with people, but not to the point that I’ve gotten an actual job,” Mary says. “And sometimes I forget about it being on the car, and I’m like, ‘Why are they staring at me?’” Guy remains optimistic. “I don’t know if people think it’s serious or not, but it is,” he says. “I’ve even thought about parking it at the hospital’s parking lot where medical people could see it. It’s something different – something that’s not been seen around here – and we’re just hoping the right person will see it and give her a call.” jtomlin@hpe.com | 888-3579

Workshop aims to help people with dementia ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

G

REENSBORO – The Center for Creative Aging North Carolina, a nonprofit organization, will sponsor a TimeSlips training workshop Sept. 24, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., at Friends Homes West, 6100 W. Friendly Ave., Greensboro. TimeSlips is an innovative and effective group storytelling method that helps people with dementia reaffirm their humanity and connect with staff, family and friends. The method replaces the pressure to remember with the

encouragement to imagine. Facilitators guide the storytelling session by asking open-ended questions, listening intently, writing down all responses, and weaving them together by repeating the story as it grows. The method values the unique voice of individual participants, their heritage, perspective and present level of ability. The program is stimulating and fun, creating an environment where all responses are accepted and elders feel safe to participate. The TimeSlips Creative Storytelling Project (www. timeslips.org) has generated

hundreds of stories, produced plays and art exhibits, and rekindled the hope for human connection among people living with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementia. The training will allow participants to become certified as a facilitator in the TimeSlips storytelling method. It is appropriate for professional and family caregivers, administrators, activity directors, recreation therapists, nurses, nursing assistants, storytellers and anyone working with older adults. Participants will learn the TimeSlips storytelling method

YOUR COMMUNITY. YOUR NEWSPAPER.

for people with dementia, the importance of creative expression, the value of the person-centered care approach, and models for sharing the stories with your community. The fee is $70 for the first registrant, $50 for additional registrants from the same organization. The registration deadline is Sept. 17. To register online, visit www.cca-nc.org and click on “TimeSlips.” For more information, contact Lia Miller at (336) 253-0856 or lia@cca-nc.org.

Finally, more than four decades after the widely acclaimed “North Carolina Gazetteer” first landed on reference shelves across the state, comes a revised and expanded edition. In “The North Carolina Gazetteer, Second Edition” (University of North Carolina Press, June 2010), authors William S. Powell and Michael Hill have added approximately 1,200 new entries to the original book – which was published in 1968 – bringing to nearly 21,000 the number of cities, towns, crossroads, waterways, mountains and other places identified. What, you may ask, is a gazetteer? Well, a gazetteer is a geographical dictionary – in this case, one that attempts to identify every place in North Carolina, tell where it is located and, in many cases, explain how the place got its name. From Manteo to Murphy, from Democrat to Republican, from Bombay and Moscow to Berlin and Little Switzerland, “The North Carolina Gazetteer” provides a colorful, educational look at the Tarheel State. Readers can learn all about the stories behind Bliss, Splendor, Sweet Home, Hell’s Half Acre, Tater Hill and Randolph County’s own community of Whynot. Reviews of the 608-page volume have been terrific. “One can’t get all this information anywhere else,” wrote North Carolina Historical Review. “The North Carolina Gazetteer” sells for $70 cloth, $25 paperback.

OTHER TABLES Seven spades was bid at all four tables in the Vanderbilt semis, but at the other three tables East kept silent. And not knowing about the heart position, declarer went down. My bidding philosophy is to bid when I see a prospect of gain. In my opinion, never did anybody more deserve to lose 17

CROSSWORD

Tuesday, June 29, 2010 CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Nicole Scherzinger, 32; Sharon Lawrence, 49; Fred Grandy, 62; Gary Busey, 66 HAPPY BIRTHDAY: Clear up old debts, paperwork and obsessions this year. It’s time to evaluate and make the changes necessary to start again. You are living in a fast- changing society that requires you to live in the present instead of relying on the past to guide you. Embrace whatever you need to learn and you can compete and stay in the game. Your numbers are 8, 10, 25, 29, 33, 35, 40 ARIES (March 21-April 19): Be aware of the cycles you have been through in the past in order to recognize reoccurring circumstances. Personal and professional issues will be difficult to deal with but, if you trust in your own abilities and help those in need, you will resolve the ongoing issues. ★★★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Don’t let your emotions cloud issues or take you in the wrong direction. Precision will be required, especially where business is involved. Avoid conflicts over rules and regulations. ★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Touch base with people you haven’t seen for a long time. You need to reminisce in order to embrace some of the goals and skills you never had a chance to develop. Take part in any event that allows you to revive your past. ★★★★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): Invest in yourself, not someone else or a cause you know little about. A change at work may put more responsibility on you. Make sure you are compensated for your time and effort. Spend time doing something you enjoy. ★★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Love, romance, travel and a change of scenery will all contribute to making today a positive experience. Your emotions are tuned in to the people who mean the most to you, so nurture these relationships. Be honest. ★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You may be good at dealing with other people’s dilemmas but you must give them a chance to figure things out or you will continue to have to take responsibility. Financial uncertainty will arise if you pay for others or are careless with your money. ★★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You are under too much pressure and you need to distance yourself in order to get things back in perspective. Looking at your situation from the outside in will give you greater insight into what needs to be done. Don’t overreact. ★★★★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Stick to what you enjoy and what you know and do best. Leave emotional discussions until you are in a better position to get your point across. Changes are heading your way and they appear to be in your favor if you follow your instincts. ★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You have to take charge before someone else does. There will be plenty of issues both at home and work that will lead to financial uncertainty if you don’t take action. Diplomacy will be required. ★★★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Problems with friends, relatives and neighbors can be expected. Take action and make your position known. Someone will be waiting and watching for you to make a costly mistake, leaving you in a vulnerable position and an easy mark. ★★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Use your imagination, be innovative and, most of all, be sure about your intentions. Love is in the stars but honesty must prevail if you intend to turn a connection into a long-term relationship. ★★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): You may feel like sharing your thoughts and feelings but it’s best to say little and listen a lot. Don’t give in to ultimatums. Choose your path and stick to it. ★★★

BRIDGE

Stars from around the globe came to Reno for the Vanderbilt Teams at the ACBL Spring Championships. As usual, most of the top seeds comprised a wealthy playing sponsor plus professionals. The bidding approach many modern players embrace is “Bid when it’s your turn.” In a Vanderbilt semifinal, it’s hard to see what East hoped to achieve by bidding with two queens. North-South, Robert Levin-Steve Weinstein, raced into seven spades. West led a trump, and Weinstein drew trumps, cashed the ace of hearts, led a diamond to dummy’s ace, returned a heart to his jack and claimed. He could ruff one heart in dummy and discard one on the other high diamond.

HOROSCOPE

ANSWER: Partner suggests six hearts, four diamonds and extra strength. With a minimum opening bid such as 7, A Q 8 7 5 2, Q 8 5 2, K 2, he would have rebid two hearts. Bid four hearts and don’t be surprised if he makes an overtrick. He may hold 7, A K J 7 5 2, Q J 5 2, A 2. West dealer Neither side 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.

PGA victor hits Triad I

t was exciting news when Bubba Watson and his wife Angie joined High Point Country Club after buying a summer home at High Rock Lake. It was really exciting news when Watson agreed to throw his support behind the former Junior Classic of the Triad. The fact that Bubba Watson will be in town days after winning his first PGA Tour event is beyond exciting for the folks at Willow Creek, who spent Sunday cheering in the clubhouse as Watson prevailed at the Travelers Championship. “I want to see that trophy!” exclaimed Adam Bowles, Willow Creek’s head golf professional. Everyone at Willow Creek for the Bubba Watson Junior Classic Championship just may get that chance. Watson immediately followed Sunday’s win in Connecticut with a trip to Rhode Island for the CVS Charity Classic, and he’s scheduled to fly to High Point late tonight in time for festivities Wednesday. The first round of the junior tournament takes place at Colonial Country Club on Wednesday morning, then concludes Thursday at Willow Creek. Wednesday night at 6, Watson will conduct a clinic at Willow Creek for all the players and their family members, then hold a dinner – during which a donation to the Boys & Girls Club of Greater High Point will be made. “He really wants to grow the game of golf through juniors,” Bowles said. “We told him about our tournament: ‘Why don’t we rename it after you, get some more participants, grow it that way?’ He loved that idea.” Watson is a legendary figure on the PGA Tour. The longest hitter in the game is renowned for his humble roots and the fact he’s never taken a lesson. The 31-year-old left-hander was touted as a potential star from the beginning and finally got his first Tour win – and the $1 million first-place check – in an emotional playoff victory Sunday. Watson’s connection to the Triad actually comes courtesy of his junior golf days. Former Ledford standout Marcy Newton – now Marcy Hart – grew close to Watson, who appeared at Hart’s charity golf tournament at Willow Creek in 2007. Watson and his wife bought their house at High Rock last year and

joined HPCC in August. “He stressed he did not want to get any sort of SPORTS membership for Steve free or anyHanf thing like ■■■ that – he paid his dues, his initiation fee. That was pretty cool,” Bowles said. “He played in a couple of our member tournaments and the members think he’s a really great guy. He loves the golf course, loves our short-game facility.” Watson is doing more than simply putting his name behind this event. When he learned that the entry fee for the Junior Classic was $100, he suggested cutting it to $50 while offering to pay for tee gifts and other expenses that may have arisen with the changed fee. Then Watson and officials at Willow Creek decided to go in another direction. The entry fee would be knocked down to $75, but $25 would go directly to the Boys & Girls Club. Bowles said Watson still is funding the tee gifts while also providing items such as signed visors, ball markers and tees along with other prizes. He’ll hold the question-and-answer session and hit some shots at the clinic and then pay for the dinner Wednesday night. Best of all, Watson will match whatever funds are raised for the Boys & Girls Club through the entry fees. Officials from the Club will be on hand Wednesday night for the check presentation. “He wants to give back to the kids and also do something to help out the community,” Bowles said. Nearly 70 junior boys and girls were entered as of Monday, with a strong field of older boys promising plenty of top competition. Bowles said entries will be accepted through the end of the day today by calling the golf shops at either Willow Creek or Colonial. This year’s winner of the fifth annual event started by HPCC’s Jim Brotherton and Colonial’s Mike O’Briant will receive his trophy from one of Willow Creek’s newest members and the newest winner of the PGA Tour. “It’s getting pretty fun,” Bowles said of the buildup to the event. “This is exciting.” shanf@hpe.com | 888-3526

Post 87 primed for playoffs BY DANIEL KENNEDY SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE

THOMASVILLE – The Post 87 Junior HiToms have picked the best possible time to play their best baseball of the season. With the American Legion Baseball Area III playoffs set to begin Thursday, Kevin Sanders and the rest of the HiToms are swinging white-hot bats. Sanders hit a pair of towering home runs to deep left-center Monday night and helped power Post 87 to a 14-4 victory in seven innings over Winston-Salem Post 55. Andrew Barnett also hit a tworun shot in the fourth for all the runs Post 87 would need. “I’ve just been seeing a lot of fastballs,” Sanders said. “We’ve just got to keep hitting. As long as we keep pitching, keep it under four or five runs a game (in the playoffs), we’ll be fine. All of us get along, so when one of us gets a hit, the rest of us catch on.” The primary beneficiary of the pristine execution of Post 87’s offense was starting pitcher David Coffey, who pitched five innings to get the win, allowing one run on four hits while striking out eight. The scoring barrage began early for the HiToms with Mike Whited’s triple to lead off the game. Three pitches later, he scored the first run on DeSean Anderson’s sacrifice fly, and Post 87 tacked on one more to take the 2-0 lead. After Post 87 scored a run in both the sec-

ond and third innings by going station-tostation on the bases, Sanders broke open the game with a solo shot and Barnett followed two batters later with his homer to give the HiToms a 7-1 advantage. “The last couple of weeks have been a roller coaster,” said Post 87 head coach Rob Shore. “We’ve been at the top and really low. We just need to find a way to stay on top (in order to play deep into the summer). It all starts with pitching and defense.” Perhaps those two elements are the most encouraging signs for Shore. The hitters for Post 87 (13-6, 11-5) have been flexing their muscles all season long, but only recently has Shore seen marked consistency from his pitching staff. Fundamentally, the Junior HiToms are becoming much more sound as the players from several of the area’s high schools become more familiar with one another. That comes as dour news for the competition as the march toward the state tournament from July 23-28 in Asheboro looms. Entering the playoffs as a No. 1 or 2 seed comes with benefits as well as challenges, but Post 87 has proven up to the challenge of bearing the bullseye on its back. “This was a must-win game,” Shore said of his team’s chances at capturing a No. 1 seed. “We put ourselves in position because we played well this season. Tonight, we stayed cool and didn’t lose our heads.”

HIT AND RUN

T

he 2010 NBA Draft will be remembered mainly for the numerous moves teams made in an effort to bolster their chances to land LeBron James via free agency. Sure, five Kentucky players were selected in the first round, including John Wall, who went No. 1 overall to the Washington Wizards. It marked the first time ever no senior was selected with a lottery pick. That dates to the mid 1980s. But for me, the biggest surprise was that no Duke player was drafted. The national

champion Blue Devils featured a heady senior guard in Jon Scheyer. I expected him to be taken in the second round. Of course, Kyle Singler likely would have been picked in the first round had he not chosen to return to Durham for his senior season. I know that decision made lots of Duke folks very happy. It’s unusual to see no Blue Devils drafted. How unusual? Well, I’m glad you asked. Since Mike Krzyzewski took the Duke job in 1980, at least one Blue Devil has been

tabbed in 23 NBA Drafts. The only years a Duke player was not selected were 1984, 1988, 1991, 1996, 1997, 2008 and 2010. I’m surprised it happened seven times. Interestingly, at least two Blue Devils were picked in 11 of those years, with four Duke stars taken in 1986 and ‘99. Barring injury, look for Singler and Nolan Smith to return Duke to the NBA Draft rolls in 2011.

Former tennis star Jennifer Capriati was recovering Monday from an accidental overdose of prescribed medication, a family spokeswoman said. The 34-year-old Capriati, once ranked No. 1 in a career sidetracked by personal troubles, was in stable condition and expected to make a full recovery, spokeswoman Lacey Wickline told The AP. She declined to identify the medication. Capriati was rushed to a South Florida hospital early Sunday. Wickline would not say how Capriati was found or who called emergency services. “In response to an outpouring of concern and support shown by Jennifer’s fans and friends worldwide, we would like to acknowledge that Jen is recuperating at a South Florida hospital from an accidental overdose of medication prescribed to Jen by her personal physician,” Wickline said. “Jen is recovering fully and stably.”

HPU coach earns diamond promotion THE COLLEGE NOTEBOOK:

H

igh Point University assistant baseball coach Bryan Peters received a promotion to associate head coach on Monday. “Coach Peters is being promoted to the position of associate head coach because this more appropriately describes his role within our staff,” Panthers head baseball coach Craig Cozart said. “His leadership in recruiting and the relationships he has in that area are invaluable. His daily energy and ability to develop talent is second to none and his vision for where this program is going is vital to our future success.” Peters followed Cozart from the University of Central Florida to HPU in July 2008 and has served as recruiting coordinator and batting coach. The Panthers batted .277 the spring before Peters came on board. They hit a school-record .334 this spring, setting season records for runs scored, runs batted in, doubles, home runs, walks and stolen bases. The Panthers also enjoyed the school’s first winning season since 1990 with a 3129 mark and set a school record for Big South wins at 15-12. Peters and Cozart were assistant coaches at UCF.

BASEBALL BRAINS Georgia Tech junior shortstop Derek Dietrich, who was taken by the Tampa Bay Rays in the second round of the recent baseball draft, was named the ACC baseball scholar-athlete of the year while heading the league’s All-Academic team Monday. Dietrich, who was first team All-ACC on the field, batted .350 with 17 homers and 61 RBIs. Duke and Florida State led the way with six members each on the 40-man academic team, which required a minimum career grade point average of 3.0 and a 3.0 average for the two most recent semesters. Blue Devils chosen were Jeremy Gould, Jake Lemmerman, Ryan McCurdy, Dennis O’Grady, Will Piwnica-Worms and Eric Brady. Colin Bates was the only player chosen from North Carolina, with Russell Wilson the only representative from

N.C. State. Joel Ernst and Austin Standler made it from Wake Forest. Ernst, a SPORTS relief pitcher, recently Greer signed a Smith free-agent ■■■ contract with the Cincinnati Reds.

SMART GOLFERS Brennan Gielow of Wake Forest, who was earlier awarded the Byron Nelson Award for excellence on the course, classroom and community, topped the ACC All-Academic men’s golf team. Gielow and teammate Lee Bedford were among five named to the All-Academic team after earning All-ACC honors. Adam Long of Duke was one of the others and among five Blue Devils chosen. Other representatives from Duke were Spencer Anderson, Brinson Paolini, Wes Roach and Julian Suri.

Pettersen, Mahan lead Charity Classic BARRINGTON, R.I. (AP) – Suzann Pettersen and Hunter Mahan made up two strokes on the last two holes and tied Juli Inkster and Boo Weekley for the lead at 10-under par after the first round of the CVS Caremark Charity Classic on Monday. The teams shared the lead after opening 61s in the 10-team best-ball tournament involving PGA Tour, LPGA and Champions members at Rhode Island Country Club. The 36-hole event ends today. Pettersen and Mahan were 8-under with two holes remaining before the six-time LPGA winner rolled in a 15-foot birdie putt at the 17th and Mahan made a 10-footer for birdie at the 18th to forge a tie. “Suzann made a great bird on 17 and I had an easier one on 18,” Mahan said. “The greens were exceptional. I thought they would be softer but they

were in perfect shape.” Inkster and Weekley combined for six birdies in a back-nine 29. That score on the inward nine was matched by tournament co-founder Brad Faxon and Rickie Fowler, who finished in a five-way tie for third at 8-under. “Boo got on a nice birdie run,” Inkster said of the four birdies Weekley made on the back nine. “Fortunately, we didn’t birdie the same holes, which was nice. When you can make those 15-footers like Boo did, it helps you keep the momentum. As the round progressed, I got my pompoms out.” The teams of Bubba Watson and Camilo Villegas, Angela Stafford and Brett Quigley, Ricky Barnes and J.B. Holmes, and Billy Andrade and Bill Haas, were also 8-under. Andrade recorded the only eagle of the round at the 538-yard 11th hole.

Hudson wins showdown vs. rookie THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Strasburg, wearing a goatee and high socks, struck out only one of Atlanta’s first 12 batters but six of the next seven, including five straight in the fifth and sixth innings. Strasburg walked Chipper Jones on four pitches to open the seventh. Brian McCann followed with a single and Ian Desmond bobbled a grounder by Troy Glaus for an error to load the bases. Jones scored on Eric Hinske’s flyball to center. Yunel Escobar knocked Strasburg out of the game with a sharply hit single to left, driving in McCann for a 2-0 lead. Gregor Blanco reached on a run-scoring bunt single that Strasburg’s replacement, Sean Burnett, couldn’t handle. Pinch-hitter Omar Infante added another infield hit, this time off third baseman Ryan Zimmerman’s glove, to drive in Escobar, and Martin Prado’s fly ball to right field drove in Blanco.

ATLANTA – Stephen Strasburg’s fifth big league start was by far his toughest. The Atlanta Braves scored four runs in the seventh inning against the Washington Nationals’ star rookie, and Tim Hudson threw seven scoreless innings in a 5-0 victory Monday night. Strasburg (2-2) had no help from his offense in this one as he gave up six hits and four runs, including three earned, in 6 1/3 innings. The Nationals have scored one run in Strasburg’s last three starts. He struck out seven, leaving him two shy of matching Herb Score’s record of 50 in his first five starts. Strasburg has two losses and a nodecision after winning his first two starts. Hudson (8-3) gave up only five hits for the NL East-leading Braves, who drew 42,889, their second-largest crowd of the season. The total MARLINS 10, METS 3 included 9,601 walk-up sales MonSAN JUAN, Puerto Rico – Cody day and 21,608 tickets sold since Ross homered and had three hits, Strasburg’s last start Wednesday. Ricky Nolasco pitched seven solid

innings and the Marlins beat the New York Mets 10-3 to give interim manager Edwin Rodriguez a sweet homecoming in Puerto Rico. Chris Coghlan and Mike Stanton also homered for the Marlins, who handed knuckleballer R.A. Dickey his first loss in eight major league starts this season. In March, Major League Baseball moved this series from Miami, where the Marlins draw sparse crowds, to Hiram Bithorn Stadium. Rodriguez took over the team when Fredi Gonzalez was fired Wednesday, becoming the first big league manager born in Puerto Rico. Days later, he came home.

INDIANS 2, BLUE JAYS 1 CLEVELAND – Jake Westbrook pitched six solid innings and Jayson Nix’s suicide squeeze bunt in the sixth scored the go-ahead run, leading the Indians over Toronto. The Indians, who broke a sevengame losing streak Sunday, won consecutive games for the first time since winning four straight June 9-12.

HiToms end first half with one-run defeat ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

WILMINGTON – The first half of the Coastal Plain League season ended in familiar fashion for the Thomasville HiToms. Wilmington handed the HiToms a 3-2 defeat Monday, Thomasville’s 12th one-run decision so far this season. The team went 3-9 in those games, which helped explain its

10-18 overall record and last-place showing in the CPL West. Wilmington (14-14) broke open a 1-1 game with two runs in the fifth off starter Zach Bernar, who allowed nine hits and three earned runs while walking one and striking out four in six solid innings. The Sharks strung together four singles in the decisive fifth. Thomasville managed seven hits,

with Tanner Mathis going 2-for-3 with a run and Matt Dillon going 2-for-3. Justin Bradley got the win for Wilmington. The HiToms open the second half with a clean slate tonight in Edenton. The team returns home for an exhibition against Kernersville on Friday before playing host to Forest City in CPL action for Fourth of July festivities.

NBA waiting game has only just begun NEW YORK (AP) – Hey LeBron, make up your mind! That’s what everyone from the people drafting the schedules to the ones designing the video games might be thinking once free agency opens at 12:01 a.m. EDT Thursday. Because even though deals can be signed as early as July 8, few expect much action until LeBron James decides what he is going to do. “We don’t know how long the process is going to be, but the dominoes sort of have to fall,” Wizards president Ernie Grunfeld said. “The top of the heap is LeBron, and depending on what he does I think will dictate the rest of free agency.” James is the biggest prize among what’s considered the deepest free agency class ever. Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh join the two-time MVP at the top of the list, with perennial All-Stars Amare Stoudemire, Joe Johnson and Dirk Nowitzki among the names likely to hit the market. James is expected to begin welcoming his suitors to Ohio on Thursday, and perhaps he’d even decide that day – if he hasn’t already – whether he’s staying with Cleveland or moving on to chase a title elsewhere. And the Cavaliers aren’t the only ones waiting on his answer. “I think on behalf of our teams, that they’d like to sell tickets wherever he is, whether it’s in Cleveland or someplace else,” NBA commis-

players from James’ class to maximum-salary contracts, which will start around $16.5 million next season. Mired in a franchise-worst stretch of nine straight losing seasons, the Knicks could land any combination of big names and it would be an upgrade over what they’ve had lately. But even if they find multiple players who want to come to New York, the Knicks may be hesitant to commit until they know they’re out of the running for James. Same with the Heat, who need to come away with someone so they don’t risk losing Wade. So the Knicks even have to put off their own All-Star free agent, forward David Lee, while waiting on James. “I think every deal is going to have its own little time. Some hung AP FILE up on LeBron, some not,” said Cleveland Cavaliers forward LeBron Mark Bartelstein, Lee’s agent. James walks to the bench during a There is a moratorium early in timeout late in the fourth quarter free agency while the league and against the Boston Celtics in Game players’ association meet to set 6 of a second-round NBA playoff se- next season’s salary cap.

Krzyzewski likes look of incoming squad BY BRYAN STRICKLAND ENTERPRISE DURHAM BUREAU

DURHAM – Bigger was better for the Duke Blue Devils this past basketball season, but that doesn’t mean that smaller can’t be even better. Duke fans still are basking in the glow of winning the NCAA championship with the tallest team in Mike Krzyzewski’s three decades in Durham, but the veteran coach has moved beyond that and is working toward making a more typical Duke roster into championship material. The Duke team that will take the floor this fall still will have more size than most of Krzyzewski’s teams, but it also will have the depth of talent on the perimeter typical of his first three title teams. “We have a really good mixture of about half and half,� Krzyzewski said Monday during his annual summer news conference. “I think every one of our guys can contribute. We just have more depth, so we’ll press more and we’ll run more.� This past season, a Duke team that

many observers thought was one recruiting class away from making an NCAA title run proved otherwise. The Blue Devils had a fairly typical perimeter scoring punch with the three-headed assault of Jon Scheyer, Kyle Singler and Nolan Smith, but the trio scored mostly in the halfcourt with some serious rebounding help from seniors Brian Zoubek and Lance Thomas and youngsters Miles and Mason Plumlee. Defensively, with freshman Andre Dawkins providing the only depth on the perimeter, Duke leaned on its quartet of big guys. This year, however, the perimeter will lose Scheyer but will have Singler, Smith and Dawkins, as well as highly touted freshman point guard Kyrie Irving, Liberty transfer Seth Curry and promising freshman Tyler Thornton. Zoubek and Thomas are gone to graduation, but the Plumlees are back, along with a bulked-up Ryan Kelly and freshman Josh Hairston. The mix should create a different dynamic, but one Krzyzewski hopes will bring similar results.

“Last year, we were as good a halfcourt team as there was in the country, and I thought we were because of our defense and rebounding but also because we had big guys and didn’t spread our defense out very much,â€? Krzyzewski said. “This year, Kyrie can really put pressure on the ball, and Seth is available. We still have Kyle and Nolan and Andre, and Tyler can give us minutes. “Plus, we still have big guys. Ryan Kelly is up to more than 230 pounds now ‌ and the Plumlees should be ready to step up and do something on another level.â€? On paper, Duke’s capabilities are scary, but there will be obstacles to overcome. First, Krzyzewski will be entrusting the team to a freshman, but he sounds completely confident in Irving’s ability to shoulder the load. “We have veteran players to help Kyrie make his adjustment, and I have a lot of confidence in Kyrie,â€? Krzyzewski said. “He’ll be very, very good right away. “He reminds me a little bit of Chris Paul with his toughness and his ability to change directions with the dribble.

He’s a very, very good player.� Krzyzewski’s players are working to get better in preparation for the season. Kelly and Dawkins are among the returners who are on campus honing their games, while Irving and Hairston are competing in the FIBA Americas U18 Championship in San Antonio. Krzyzewski is doing much the same. In a couple of weeks, he will head to Las Vegas for a mini-camp in preparation for the FIBA World Championship. A group of college players being recruited to help the U.S. prepare is expected to include Singler, Smith and possibly North Carolina forward Tyler Zeller. “I’m on to the next thing, and the next thing is getting better as a basketball coach,� Krzyzewski said. “You’ve got to get better each year, so the opportunity to coach the United States team gives me an opportunity to get better. I’ll coach more this summer than anybody in the United States. As long as I take my breaks and stay fresh, I think that’s a good thing.� bstrickland@heraldsun.com | 919-419-6671

Brazil’s Luis Fabiano (top) dribbles past Chile goalkeeper Claudio Bravo to score his side’s second goal during Monday’s World Cup match at Ellis Park Stadium in Johannesburg, South Africa. Brazil prevailed 3-0 to advance to the quarterfinals.

Brazil, Netherlands advance THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

JOHANNESBURG – Five-time champion Brazil beat South American rival Chile 3-0 to advance to the quarterfinals of the World Cup on Monday. Juan opened the scoring in the 34th minute at Ellis Park Stadium with a firm header from near the penalty spot off a corner kick. Luis Fabiano added to the lead in the 38th, receiving a onetouch pass from Kaka and dribbling past goalkeeper Claudio Bravo inside the area before hitting the open net. Rodinho scored his first goal in the tournament with a shot from the top of the area in the 59th minute, a one-timer into the far corner. Brazil will face the Netherlands, while Chile is the first South American team eliminated.

NETHERLANDS 2, SLOVAKIA 1 DURBAN, South Africa – The Netherlands reached the final eight when standouts Arjen Robben and Wesley Sneijder scored in each half. The Oranje, who have never won soccer’s biggest prize, went ahead in the 18th minute when Robben cut inside from the right wing and found the net with a low, precise shot from 20 yards. Robben sat out the first two group matches with a hamstring injury. Sneijder doubled the lead into an empty net in the 84th after a gamble by Slovak goalkeeper Jan Mucha backfired. Netherlands keeper Maarten Stekelenburg preserved the win with two key saves in the 67th and the Dutch extended their team-record unbeaten streak to 23 games. Robert Vittek scored on a last-second penalty kick for Slovakia.

American soccer leader: We failed JOHANNESBURG (AP) – U.S. Soccer Federation president Sunil Gulati says the American team did not meet his expectations at the World Cup and he likely will meet with Bob Bradley after the tournament to discuss the coach’s future. Bradley was hired in December 2006 and has a contract running through the end of the year. The Americans were elimi-

nated last weekend in the second round with a 2-1 overtime loss to Ghana. “I think the team is capable of more,� Gulati said Monday during a one-hour assessment. “I think the players know it. I think Bob knows it. And so at that level we’re disappointed we didn’t get to play another 90 minutes at least.� Gulati described Bradley as being “very disap-

pointed� with the team’s outcome. Before Bradley was hired, Gulati held talks with former Germany coach Juergen Klinsmann, who lives in California. Bruce Arena has been the only coach to lead the U.S. at consecutive World Cups, taking the Americans to a quarterfinal finish in 2002 before first-round elimination in 2006.

WIMBLEDON, England (AP) – Three-time finalist Andy Roddick was stunned in the fourth round at Wimbledon on Monday by an 82nd-ranked Taiwanese player who hadn’t won a match here the past four years. The fifth-seeded American was ousted 4-6, 7-6 (3), 7-6 (4), 6-7 (5), 9-7 by Yen-hsun Lu in a match that lasted more than 41⠄2 hours. Lu sealed the victory in the 16th game of the fifth set with his only service break of the match. The 26-year-old Lu had lost in the first round at Wimbledon four straight times and failed to win a match at the past five Grand Slams. He’s the first Asian man to reach the quarterfinals of any Grand Slam since Shuzo Matsuoka of Japan did it at Wimbledon in 1995. Roddick had 38 aces, but converted only one of eight breakpoint chances. Lu finished with 22 aces. “I thought he served better than he has against me before,� Roddick said. “That being said, I had shots. I didn’t take advantage of them.� Lu’s win overshadowed victories by Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray on the men’s side, and the Williams sisters and Kim Clijsters among the women. Before Monday, Lu was 9-18 in Grand Slam matches, 11-17 on grass and 2-10 overall against top-10 ranked players. It was his first win over a top-10 player since he beat Murray in the first round of the 2008 Beijing Olympics. Roddick, the 2003 U.S. Open champion, has lost three times to Federer in Wimbledon finals, including last year’s epic match that went to 16-14 in the fifth set. He had beaten Lu in straight sets in three previous meetings. Roddick evened Monday’s match by serving a 126 mph ace on the final point of the fourth-set tiebreaker, and then had a chance for a decisive break in the fifth. But, on break point at 4-4, Lu came up with a perfect backhand volley and

Serving with Lu ahead 8-7, Roddick hit a forehand long at 30-all to set up match point. Lu converted by hitting a running forehand passing shot down the line. “Through three sets I was playing horrendously, I mean really, really badly,� Roddick said. “I was trying to think of how to put balls in the court. I think the fifth set was probably the best set that I played ... but when you dig yourself a hole, it’s tough to get out.� Lu said he didn’t believe he could win but told himself to keep fighting. “I just told myself, ’If I can stay longer, longer, longer, then probably something happens’,� he said. “And finally then I waited for the last chance to close the match.� Lu, who held up a finger to the sky, dedicated the win to his father, a chicken farmer who died in 2000. Earlier, defending women’s champion Serena Williams overcame Maria Sharapova 7-6 (9), 6-4 to reach the quarterfinals and avenge her loss to the Russian in the 2004 final. Clijsters rallied to beat Justine Henin 2-6, 6-2, 63 in an all-Belgian duel

between former No. 1ranked players making Wimbledon comebacks after returning from retirement. Defending champion Federer, 2008 champion Nadal, third-seeded Djokovic, No. 4 Murray and five-time women’s winner Venus Williams also advanced on an action-packed day featuring all remaining 32 men’s and women’s players in fourth-round matches. Serena Williams served 19 aces for the second straight match – taking her total to 63 for the tournament – and held off the resurgent Sharapova in a tight battle on Centre Court. In 2004, Sharapova – 17 years old at the time – stunned Williams 6-1, 64 for her first Grand Slam title. Federer, chasing a record-tying seventh Wimbledon singles title, swept past 16th-seeded Jurgen Melzer 6-3, 6-2, 6-3 to reach his 25th consecutive Grand Slam quarterfinal. Nadal, forced into five sets the previous two rounds, needed only three Monday to beat PaulHenri Mathieu 6-4, 6-2, 6-2, and showed no sign of the right knee trouble which bothered him.

Consumers spend as incomes rise WASHINGTON (AP) – Americans spent a little more in May but not enough to speed along the economic recovery. Consumer spending rose 0.2 percent last month after no change in April, the Commerce Department said Monday. Incomes rose for the sixth time in seven months, boosting household finances and potentially providing fuel for greater future spending. The increase came from spending on services – much of that likely the result of Americans using more electricity as the weather warmed up. Money spent on goods declined. Incomes rose 0.4 percent.

Apple touts success of iPhone launch NEW YORK – Apple Inc. said Monday that it sold more than 1.7 million units of its new iPhone model in the first three days, making it the most successful product launch in the company’s history from the standpoint of sales. The iPhone 4 went on sale Thursday in the U.S., Britain, France, Germany and Japan. High demand for the model caused shortages and unruly crowds at some stores.

Gas prices start to edge higher NEW YORK – Gasoline prices continue to rise as vacationers in RVs and campers join commuters on the roads during the peak summer driving season. Pump prices likely will continue to increase over the next couple of weeks but fall short of $3 a gallon in most states. Analysts note that demand remains lackluster while supplies are ample.

Lorillard defends menthol cigarettes RICHMOND, Va. – Cigarette maker Lorillard Inc. is launching a campaign to defend menthol cigarettes amid a U.S. Food and Drug Administration review of the minty smokes. The nation’s third-largest cigarette company holds about 35 percent share of the menthol market with its Newport brand. Lorillard, based in Greensboro, said Monday it launched a website that explains the company’s position, the science that is under review by a federal advisory committee, and the consequences of a potential ban on menthol cigarettes.

the percentage of income that wasn’t spent, bumped up to 4 percent. Consumers “are still not setting this economic recovery alight, but nor are they rolling over in the face of ... high unemployment and lower (stock) prices,” Paul Dales, an economist at Capital Economics, wrote in a note to clients. More cautious spending by Americans is fueling debate over how much of a role government should play in stimulating the economy. World leaders over the weekend pledged to cut deficits in richer countries in half by 2013. But as the appetite for federal stimulus fades in the U.S., millions of

Americans could lose unemployment benefits and health care subsidies. The Senate remains at an impasse over extensions, with Republicans and one Democrats citing growing deficits as a reason for blocking them. Consumer spending accounts for about 70 percent of economic activity. The economy has grown for three straight quarters. Still, consumers are cautious, facing high unemployment, tight credit and a slumping housing market. If consumption remains sluggish, the economy may not grow fast enough to generate jobs and quickly bring down the 9.7 percent unemployment rate.

Low rates spur refinancing MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

TRIAD – With mortgage rates reaching a record low last week nationally, Triad lenders say they are getting many more requests from people who want to refinance. Some rates are between 4.5 and 4.75 percent for a 30-year fixed loan in the Triad. “Our refinance activity has almost doubled in the last three weeks,” said Jeff Cook, a senior vice president for NewBridge Bank in Winston-Salem. He declined to give actual numbers, but said refinances account for about 70 percent of the bank’s current residential-mortgage activity. The national average for a 30-year, fixed-rate loan sank to 4.69 percent – the lowest point since mortgage company Freddie Mac started tracking rates in 1971. Andy Matejka, a loan officer at The Mortgage Lender Inc. in WinstonSalem, said he has gotten a lot of calls from people

wanting to refinance their mortgages. He said, for example, that he is working with a couple who are switching from an adjustable-rate mortgage at 9.75 percent to a 30-year fixed loan at 4.75 percent. “Three or four months ago at the end of March, when the government was going to stop purchasing mortgage-backed securities, we anticipated rates to go up,” Matejka said. But since that time, the recent economic crisis in Greece and other European countries has made American debt look a lot better. “There’s still a lot of demand for government debt, and that’s keeping interest rates lower,” Matejka said. Piedmont Federal Savings Bank in WinstonSalem is getting some refinancing activity and getting a lot of inquiries about low interest rates, but not a big increase in business, said David Smelcer, the bank’s senior vice president of lending.

Court rules against inventors WASHINGTON (AP) – The Supreme Court on Monday refused to weigh in on whether software, online-shopping techniques and medical diagnostic tests can be patented, saying only that inventors’ request for protection of a method of hedging weather-related risk in energy prices cannot be granted.

The high court on Monday unanimously agreed with a lower court ruling that threw out Bernard Bilski and Rand Warsaw’s patent, a decision many said could endanger Information Age patents. But the high court said they did not need to make a broad sweeping decision about patents to dispose of Bilski and Warsaw’s case.

Stocks fall as gloom grows on Wall Street NEW YORK (AP) – A darkening view of the economy sent bond market interest rates to their lowest level in 14 months and kept many investors out of the stock market. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note, considered a benchmark because it’s used to set rates on consumer loans including mortgages, fell to 3.03 percent Monday, its lowest point since late April 2009. Investors felt safer making their bets in the bond market and many avoided any kind of stock trades. All the major stock indexes fell by single digits. The New York Stock Exchange traded less than a billion shares on its selling floor, a number that’s more likely to be seen in August or late December than in June. The latest bit of bad economic news came from the Commerce Department, which said consumers saved more than they spent last month. The government said consumer spending rose 0.2 percent last month, just above the 0.1 percent growth forecast by economists polled by Thomson Reuters. However, personal income rose 0.4 percent. Investors are also growing anxious ahead of the release of the government’s June employment report on Friday. The May report was troubling because it showed that private employers are hiring few workers.

A surfer watches an oily wave approach as he waits to catch a ride in Destin, Fla., Monday. Tourism on the Gulf coast is way off, with some hotels and condominium owners saying their business is down by 50 percent.

Storm could hurt oil spill cleanup NEW ORLEANS (AP) – Tropical Storm Alex steamed across the Gulf of Mexico on Monday on a path that could keep it away from BP’s busted well but could still stir up heavy winds, rain and choppy seas that drive the oil deeper inland and bring much of the cleanup to a standstill. By midweek, boats skimming the sludge from the water may have to return to port for their own safety, and the floating oil-containment booms could be rendered useless by waves slopping over them and may have to be pulled out of the water. The upside is that the storm could stay far enough away that

Obama to push immigration reform WASHINGTON (AP) – President Barack Obama is enlisting activists and labor leaders in a push for comprehensive immigration legislation that will showcase Republican opposition and include a major speech by the president. The strategy was discussed Monday at a meeting by prominent labor leaders.

BP will not have to abandon its efforts to capture much of the crude spewing from the sea floor. Nor is the storm expected to interrupt BP’s drilling of a relief well, considered the best hope of plugging the leak. “We are watching very, very closely,” said Coast Guard Adm. Thad Allen, the government’s point man on the crisis. “As it stands right now, absent the intervention of a hurricane, we’re still looking at mid-August” for completing the relief well. Earlier Monday, a BP executive said the well would be done by early August. Still, Alex – expected to reach hurricane force by the time it hits

land near the Mexico-Texas border, possibly Thursday – is giving new urgency to BP’s efforts to make its operations at the well as hurricane-resistant as possible. The company said it hopes to install a new oil-capturing system by next week that would allow BP to disconnect the equipment faster if a hurricane threatens and hook it back up quickly after the storm passes. Right now, BP would need five days to pull out if there is a hurricane. The new system being developed, which uses a flexible hose, would cut that to two days. And if there was a hurricane, it could shut down the drilling operation for up to two weeks, Allen said.

Democrats eye 60 votes for bank bill WASHINGTON (AP) – A sweeping overhaul of financial regulations faced new obstacles in the Senate on Monday – the loss of one and potentially two crucial votes to guarantee its passage. The death of Sen. Robert Byrd, D-W.Va., and new misgivings by Republican Sen. Scott

Brown of Massachusetts put the bill’s fate in doubt. Brown and Byrd were among the 61 senators who had supported an original Senate version of the bill. The House was likely to vote on the bill as early as today; the Senate vote would follow, though no date has been set. Congressional lead-

ers had wanted to send the bill to President Barack Obama by July 4, but the final vote may now be delayed. Without Byrd’s and Brown’s votes, Democrats would have to scramble for the 60 votes needed to overcome the procedural obstacles that could defeat the legislation.

WASHINGTON (AP) – Ten people have been arrested by the FBI for allegedly serving for years as secret agents of Russia’s intelligence service, the SVR, with the goal of penetrating U.S. government policymaking circles. The Justice Department announced the arrests Monday in the multiyear investigation. According to court papers in the case, the FBI intercepted a message from SVR headquarters, often referred to as Moscow Center, to two of the defendants stating that their main mission is “to search

and develop ties in policymaking circles in US.” Eight of 10 were arrested Sunday for allegedly carrying out long-term, deep-cover assignments in the United States on behalf of Russia. As deep-cover agents they would have civilian jobs rather than serving in Russian diplomatic or military missions. Two others were arrested for allegedly participating in the same Russian intelligence program within the United States. An 11th defendant, who allegedly delivered money to the defendants, is at large.
