FAMILIAR FACE: 1960s television star comes to the Triad. 1C

HIGH POINT – Law enforcement officials applauded new legislation that will expand the state’s power to collect DNA samples from some suspects upon arrest, but others have questioned its fairness. The measure, signed into law Thursday, means authorities will no longer have to wait until someone is convicted of a felony before they can obtain an individual’s genetic material and add it to state and national DNA databases, where samples

are compared with crime-scene evidence from unsolved cases. The new law is projected to account for an additional 45,000 DNA samples a year that would be processed by the State Bureau of Investigation lab in Raleigh – a significant workload for a facility that has limited manpower to handle a heavy backlog of DNA evidence. “It’s a powerful tool to make sure we protect the public as best we can and also protect people from wrongful identification,” said High Point police Chief Jim Fealy. “Obviously, it’s one of those things that is

going to require a little bit of funding and a little bit of coordination to make it work as effectively as possible. My concern would be that the SBI’s funding match the need that this is going to generate.” The new law is not without critics. State Rep. Pricey Harrison, a Greensboro Democrat, said she was a co-sponsor of the measure because she thought it would help exonerate people who had been wrongfully convicted. But after hearing some of her colleagues’ concerns that

DNA SAMPLES

WHO’S NEWS

–

Under new legislation enacted by the N.C. General Assembly, DNA samples can be taken from anyone arrested for certain offenses, such as murder, manslaughter, rape and other sex offenses, aggravated assault, kidnapping, burglary, arson, armed robbery, cyberstalking and stalking. The samples will be collected from suspects’ saliva using a cheek swab. Adding DNA from arrestees is projected to crack as many as 100 unsolved murders, rapes and other violent crimes statewide within a year of taking effect.

Dr. Donald C. Swing recently joined North State Pathology Associates in High Point. Swing, formerly associated with Pinewest OB-GYN, completed his residency in pathology at Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center.

The law requires that DNA collected from those cleared of wrongdoing be destroyed. The law, which becomes effective Feb. 1, 2011, will also amend the state statute relating to confidentiality of records to clarify that DNA records and samples are not public records.

US 311 segment may open by November BY PAUL B. JOHNSON ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

TRIAD – The latest schedule for completion of the next segment of U.S. 311 could have motorists traveling by November on the new section of highway from High Point into northern Randolph County. Crews began work on the extension of the high-

way from Interstate 85 Business Loop in southern High Point to Spencer Road near Glenola four years ago. The segment covers 6.4 miles. “The best thing we know right now is that it could be November of this year before it’s finished,” said Mike Mills, division engineer out of the N.C. Department of Transportation office in Greensboro.

At one point late last year, DOT officials indicated that the section might be finished by this summer. But Mills said that schedules with the contractor paving the roadway have affected the completion. “The contractor may have other resurfacing work,” Mills said. The contractual completion date for the project

is mid-May of next year, meaning an actual completion in November still would come in ahead of schedule, Mills said. The contract amount is approximately $104 million. The final 8-mile segment from Spencer Road to U.S. 220 won’t be finished until at least the fall of 2012. Leaders in the Triad lobbied for decades to

complete the U.S. 311 link around High Point and through northern Randolph County. Initial plans for the extension of the highway date back to the early 1960s. Eventually, U.S. 311 will become part of the Interstate 74 system that will link the Midwest to the coast of South Carolina. pjohnson@hpe.com | 888-3528

Bluegrass festival expected to draw up to 10,000 people MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

MARION – One of the biggest bluegrass festivals in the Southeast is coming to McDowell County. The 36th Annual North Carolina State Bluegrass Festival will be held Thursday, Aug. 19 through Saturday, Aug. 21 at Tom Johnson Camping Center’s Rally Park. Over the years, the festival was held in Cherokee and featured many of the great names in bluegrass music, including Bill Monroe and Ralph Stanley. This year, it will be held in McDowell County for the first time.

John Tedesco is seen In a May photo. The Wake County Board of Education’s decision to scrap a much-praised busing-for-diversity program has sparked a public backlash not seen for decades in these parts. Tedesco, part of a new board majority elected last year on a community schools platform, says the policy is no longer needed, and that it wasn’t working anyway.

Turmoil in Raleigh

Provides vital tool

Board’s support of community schools platform causes major backlash by residents, civil rights groups RALEIGH (AP) – In the annals of desegregation, Raleigh is barely a footnote. Integration came relatively peacefully to the North Carolina capital. There was no “stand in the schoolhouse door,” no need of National Guard escorts or even a federal court order. Nearly 50 years passed – mostly uneventfully, at least until a new school board majority was elected last year on a platform supporting community schools. The result has been turmoil. The superintendent resigned in protest. A coalition of residents and civil rights groups filed suit. Months of rallies, news conferences and candlelight vigils against the feared “resegregation” of the state’s largest school district culminated in the recent arrests of four activists for refusing to vacate board members’ chairs. Locals are lecturing Northern transplants about the Jim Crow past; white school board members are quoting Brown v. Board of Education to the NAACP. “We’re not going to sit idly by while they turn the clock back on the blood, sweat and tears and wipe their feet on the sacrifices of so many that have enabled us to get to the place we are today,” says the Rev. William J. Barber II, head of the state NAACP chapter

and one of the four protesters arrested for trespassing at the June 15 board meeting. But John Tedesco, part of a new board majority, says it’s the NAACP and others who are “trying to play with the old ’60s play-

It’s not. But in 1960, when desegregation first came to the Raleigh city schools, there was no pitched battle. In September of that year, 7year-old William Craig Campbell – whose janitor father was head of the local NAACP chapter – braved a gantlet of spit and epithets and walked into the Murphy Public School. Despite petitions by 400 parents opposing desegregation as “not in the best interests” of white children, Campbell remained; one day, he would become mayor of Atlanta. Raleigh city schools in-

tegrated gradually, and relatively quietly. Wake County was another story. Between 1968 and 1976, Raleigh’s white population dropped by 11 percent, and this “white flight” turned areas just outside the Beltline encircling Raleigh into what one educator called “trailer city.” A 1968 editorial in The News & Observer warned that Raleigh was in danger of becoming a “little Chicago ... with hostile black consciousness and separatism growing with resegregation.” A proposal to merge the two districts was put to a referendum in 1973, and was defeated by a 3-1 margin. But three years later, the two systems were joined by an act of the state legislature. Over the years, the united school district tried to integrate in all sorts of ways. Students were bused into town from county neighborhoods. All sixth graders were sent to four downtown centers. A network of magnet schools was established, though by the 1980s, most of those bused were minorities from downtown. By the 1990s, the federal courts began issuing rulings discouraging forced racial integration. So at the beginning of 2000, in an effort to head off a lawsuit, the board adopted new diversity standards, replacing race with income.

the measure “seems to disproportionately affect the minority communities who end up getting racially profiled,” Harrison said she changed her mind and voted against the bill. “When I looked into it a little bit more, I realized it was actually a pretty invasive technique,” she said. “Some of the African-Americans in the chamber spoke very passionately about this bill and the repercussions of it, and I think made a very good case for why they felt like it was a little bit invasive and seemed to violate some liberties.” Opposition also came from the ACLU of North Carolina and the John Locke Foundation, a conservative think tank in Raleigh, which argues that the new law is uncon-

JOHN HOOD: Legislature makes ironic deal on tax penalties. TOMORROW

Opinion Page Editor: Vince Wheeler vwheeler@hpe.com (336) 888-3517

How about compensation for our recycling efforts? Here’s a novel idea. This occurred to me last week as I went to a place here in High Point to try and be a good citizen and recycle. I asked the folks how much they would pay me for my old battery to recycle; they said nothing. I have also returned old ink cartridges for recycle with the same results. It seems to me that if our government is really serious about this recycling thing, they would at least pay us a token payment for doing same. The city also now demands that we recycle certain things, but there again, they will not pay us anything for our trouble and instead charge us a higher fee on our utility bills for the container to use for recycling. Seems this recycling thing is all one-sided. OTIS A. NUNN JR. High Point

Liberal judges and politicians changed the true meaning of our Constitution, when prayer isn’t allowed in public institutions and use of Jesus’ name. A minister was told recently, he could not pray before the N.C. Senate and use Jesus’ name. My friend was told by a Food Lion clerk last Christmas, she couldn’t write “Happy Birthday Jesus” on a cake so her grandchildren would know why we celebrate Christmas. She could write Happy Holidays. She was told to keep it. If politicians, judges, businesses think they can shut Jesus down, they are badly mistaken. God was there behind those closed doors in Washington when the dishonesty was happening. He saw and heard it all. Nothing was hid. We need to pray for America and our wonderful troops. God is our only hope. We have drifted far from Him. God bless us and Israel. BOBBI CAMPBELL High Point

Hold Congress accountable for its damage, too

can’t shut Jesus out BY PHIL SCHILTZ

How I miss the days when you were safe in your homes. When America was a God-loving nation. When true men worked hard to support their families instead of expecting the government to take working people’s money to support them. God says a man who doesn’t support his family is worse than an unbeliever. Unless you are unable to work.

oliticians constantly tell us that regulations are needed to protect the environment. But, it looks like your regulations are actually harming the environment, by strangling efforts to clean the BP oil spill. The Obama administration forced Louisiana to stop using 16 barges that were sucking up oily

water. Gov. Bobby Jindal said the Coast Guard shut them down because “they didn’t know if the barges had enough life jackets and fire extinguishers.” Say what? Only after 24 hours and many phone calls did the barges get back to work. Lost time! At least 13 foreign countries have offered to help clean up the Gulf but the president refused. Why? A stupid set of laws, called the Jones Act, have blocked foreign crews from helping to clean the oil spill. The only reason for this act was to mollify the unions … again! How about the “little people” and animals who are now suffering? I think politicians need to start regulating less, and doing less in general. BP is paying a huge price for its incompetence, and deservedly so, but Congress constantly gets a free ride. It isn’t responsible for anything! 1. It’s a monopoly. 2. Everything Congress does is based on force. 3. It’s almost impossible to fire any of them. 4. And they constantly use their own failings as an excuse to grab more power The good news is, the American people are witnessing those failures. And, like me, they’re letting Congress know. Congress’ political survival will depend on more than pleasing rhetoric or promises. Congress should actually reduce the real number of regulations we have, starting with the Jones Act. Also, as to point No. 3, We The People are working on a solution to that. A nonpartisan organization known as GOOOH is preparing to flush out Congress, one district at a time. These popularly selected and elected represen-

tatives will be directly beholden to the people of their district, not “the party” or big money contributors because GOOOH will take care of all promotion and advertising. Because of a comprehensive questionnaire, we know exactly how they will vote and we will hold them to that commitment under penalty of recall. The GOOOH candidates also swear to serve only two (2) terms and support a term-limit bill. No longer will we allow professional politicians to suck the life out of our system. The Founding Fathers never intended us to have career politicians, but citizen legislators that go back to the farm when their term is up. We think that is a good idea on the federal, state and local levels. Additionally, we want the Fair Tax, HR25, (national retail sales tax on all new goods and services) considered and passed. That will kick-start the economy like no stimulus ever could. It is good for the people but not Congress because they won’t have a behemoth of a system and their own police force (IRS) to manipulate in order to gain favors, money and votes at the expense of the rest of us. Having no personal or corporate income taxes, gift, estate, capital gains, alternative minimum, Social Security, Medicare and self-employment taxes will make the U.S. the economic gorilla of the world and attract much of the over $13 trillion that is currently sheltered offshore to finance new and growing companies. Companies and the people will prosper. We also support the “One Subject at a Time” and “Read the Bills” acts. It is only common sense. If you are not familiar with these, go to DownsizeDC.org and check it out. So, Congress, wake up and smell the brimstone. We are coming for you, one at a time.

There’s a battle of words in the war on drugs

on Allen probably thinks Alice Huffman has been smoking something. Huffman, president of the California Conference of the NAACP, recently declared support for an initiative that, if passed by voters in November, will decriminalize the use and possession of marijuana. Huffman sees it as a civil rights issue. In response, Bishop Allen, founder of a religious social activism group called the International Faith-Based Coalition, has come out swinging. “Why would the state NAACP advocate for blacks to stay high?” he demanded last week at a news conference in Sacramento. “It’s going to cause crime to go up. There will be more drug babies.” Allen wants Huffman to resign. But Huffman is standing firm, both in resisting calls for her head and in framing this as an issue of racial justice. There is, she notes, a pronounced racial disparity in the enforcement of marijuana laws. She’s right, of course. For that matter, there is a disparity in the enforcement of drug laws, period. In 2007, according to the Department of Health and Hu-

man Services, 9.5 percent of blacks (about 3.6 million people) and 8.2 percent of whites (about 16 million) older than 12 reported using some OPINION form of illicit drug in the previous Leonard month. Yet though Pitts there are more ■■■ than “four times” as many white drug users as black ones, blacks represent better than half those in state prison on drug charges, according to The Sentencing Project. The same source says that though two-thirds of regular crack users are white or Latino, 82 percent of those sentenced in federal court for crack crimes are black. In some states, black men are jailed on drug charges at a rate 50 times higher than whites. And so on. So while the bishop hyperventilates about blacks “staying” high (?), he ignores a clearer and more present danger. As Michelle Alexander argues in her book, “The New Jim Crow,” those absurd sentencing rates, combined with laws making it legal to discrimi-

nate against even nonviolent former felons in hiring, housing and education, constitute nothing less than a new racial caste system. Allen worries about a baby being born addicted to pot, but the likelier scenario is that she will be born to a father unable to secure a job so he can support her, an apartment for her to live in or an education so he can better himself for her — all because he got caught with a joint 10 years ago. It is a cruel and ludicrous predicament. And apparently Huffman, like a growing number of cops, judges, DEA agents, pundits and even conservative icons like the late William F. Buckley Jr. and Milton Friedman, has decided to call the War on Drugs what it is: a failure. It is time to find a better way, preferably one that emphasizes treatment over incarceration. You’d think that would be a no-brainer. We have spent untold billions of dollars, ruined untold millions of lives and racked up the highest incarceration rate in the world to fight drug use. Yet, we saw casual drug use “rise” by 2,300 percent between 1970 and

YOUR COMMUNITY. YOUR NEWSPAPER.

2003, according to an advocacy group called LEAP (Law Enforcement Against Prohibition). And as drug use skyrocketed, we find that we have moved the needle on “addiction” not even an inch, up or down. All we have managed, and at a ruinous cost, is to re-learn the lesson of 1933 when alcohol Prohibition collapsed: you cannot jail or punish people out of wanting what they want. I’ve never used drugs. I share Bishop Allen’s antipathy toward them. But it seems silly and selfdefeating to allow that reflexive antipathy to bind us to the same strategy that has failed for 30 years. By now, one thing should be obvious about our War on Drugs. Drugs won.

Officials: 17 massacred in Mexico PIEDRAS NEGRAS, Mexico (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Gunmen stormed a party in northern Mexico on Sunday and massacred 17 people, authorities said. The gunmen arrived at the party in Torreon in several cars and opened fire without saying a word, the Coahuila state

Attorney Generalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Office said in statement. At least 18 people were wounded. Several of the victims were young and some were women, but their identities and ages had not yet been determined. Investigators had no suspects or information on a possible motive.

Police found more than 120 bullet casings at the scene, most of them from .223 caliber weapons. Coahuila is among several northern states that has seen a spike in drug-related violence that authorities attribute to a fight between the Gulf cartel and their former enforcers, the Zetas.

Outreach group gets new home BY PAT KIMBROUGH ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – High Point’s crime reduction strategy has received a boost thanks to the generosity of a local businessman. Zaki Khalifa, owner of Zaki Oriental Rugs on S. Main Street, donated a 6,000-square-foot building to the High Point Community Against Violence. The space, which was previously leased to other tenants, will serve as rent-free headquarters for the nonprofit organization that works with law enforcement in an effort to help criminal offenders change their lifestyles.

“When I found out that they did not have premises of their own and were looking for space, I told the Realtor not to make it available for lease,” said Khalifa, who was familiar with HPCAV’s work. “They are part of the effort to make the community a better place.” HPCAV Executive Director Jim Summey said the new location is filling vital space needs for the organization, which recently stepped up its mission through a partnership with America Works, a New York-based company that has contracted with the city to help violent offenders find and keep jobs. “We are very, very grate-

He is part of a very benevolent and caring family, and he understands what we’re doing,” said Summey, HPCAV’s only full-time employee, who

previously worked out of a small office at Southside Recreation Center. America Works hired a full-time staffer to work at the location with Summey, along with various volun-

Once they’re placed in positions, America Works follows up with the clients and their employers to make sure the arrangement works out for both parties. The assistance is in addition to services including counseling for drug or alcohol addiction and other outreach that HPCAV has made available to ex-offenders for more than a decade. “Depending on the growth of CAV, this building will service our needs really well,” Summey said. pkimbrough@hpe.com | 888-3531

THOMASVILLE – Jeff Kirkland and Resa Raulston are looking forward to continuing to make an impact in their leadership roles on the Thomasville Board of Education. Kirkland, the board’s chairman, and Raulston, the board’s vice chairwoman, were re-elected to their positions Tuesday night. Both have served on the school board for five years. Kirkland said being named chairman means a “very high amount of responsibility as far as trying to make sure the school system goes in the right direction.” “It’s a lot of responsibility,” he said. “I’m very excited to be re-elected. I’m glad that the board has the confidence in me. I think overall the board does a wonderful job as far as the community and representing what Thomasville City Schools is.” As chairman, Kirkland, a graduate of Thomasville High School, wants to help spur more parental involvement and help increase test scores. “I definitely want to see more parental involvement,” said Kirkland, who’s also the general manager of Arby’s in Lexington. “I’m a very big advocate in parental involvement. I think we are lacking in a lot of areas. I think we can do a much better job. That’s going to be my main focus to kind of push parental involvement. Raulston, who is a registered nurse at Forsyth Medical Center, also graduated from Thomasville High School. She said serving as the vice chairwoman is “very meaningful.” “It’s a wonderful system,” she said. “I think we have a lot to offer. I think we are progressive. I think we are ahead of the game in a lot of areas. Our nutrition and wellness program is stellar. Our technology is spectacular.” dignasiak@hpe.com | 888-3657

Trinity OKs rezoning for planned auto repair shop BY DIANNA BELL ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

TRINITY – A man who wants to open an auto repair shop on Trinity Road has received the blessing of the Trinity City Council. The council recently approved the request from Jimmy Allred, who won approval through the Trinity planners earlier in the month. Allred wanted property currently zoned as highway commercial property changed to heavy manufacturing-conditional zoning. The property is located at 11936 and 11910 Trinity Road and sits beside a vacant truck terminal. Allred wants to build

a shop that services cars, trucks and trailers. “I want to construct a metal fabricated building with three bays,” Allred said. “A bay for classic vehicles, one for bigger vehicles, and a third for trucks and trailers.” Because the property is located in the Randleman Lake Watershed, Allred must build a retention pond on the property as a condition of the zoning. The retention pond is supposed to address concerns of storm-water runoff and excess water that will come from washing the cars Allred’s shop repairs. No one commented during a public hearing, and the request

was approved unanimously. Trinity Mayor Carlton Boyles commended the planning and zoning board. By approving Allred’s original request and working with him through the development process, he said the board helped Trinity take a step in the right direction. “I want to see Trinity become business friendly,” Boyles said. “I want potential owners to come invest in us and help us.” The council also accepted an offer from the town of Jamestown to take ownership of a used sewage pumper truck that Jamestown was looking to get rid of.

The truck is used to clean out sewer lines but also can be used to clean muddy streets and blocked storm drains. “The cost of repair is about $7,000,” Baker said. “We would like to store the vehicle in a carport with sides that would cost between $1,500 to $2,000 to construct.” The city of Thomasville has aided Trinity with this need in the past, charging for labor, he said. “This is a tool that we should really pursue,” Baker told the board. editor@hpe.com | 888-3537

year unless the governor calls a special session of the legislature. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What the governor wants is someone with the capacity to pull the organization back together,â&#x20AC;? Chrissy Pearson, Perdueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s spokeswoman, said Saturday. This week Perdue is expected to name a team of advisers from outside the patrol to suggest reforms and help launch the search for a new commander. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The governor should start a national search for the most effective commander we can find,â&#x20AC;? said Joe Sinsheimer, a Democratic Party strategist-turnedwatchdog. There has not been an outsider appointed to lead the Highway Patrol since Col. C.R. Tolar in 1949. He was replaced the following year.

the sweepstakes parlors provide needed jobs and revenue. He wrote that the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s need for money will be acute next year, when the budget deficit may balloon to $3 billion. Thevaosâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; points were the same as those parlor owners delivered to lawmakers during the session. Legislators voted overwhelmingly to ban the games.

CAROLINAS, ABBY THE HIGH POINT ENTERPRISE MONDAY, JULY 19, 2010 www.hpe.com

Lawmakers now focus on critical 2010 elections

Alvin Greene, Democratic candidate for the U.S. Senate, makes his first public speech during the monthly meeting of the NAACP Sunday, at Manning Junior High School, in Manning, S.C.

Surprise SC Senate candidate makes his first speech MANNING, S.C. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; In his first campaign appearance, South Carolinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s surprising U.S. Senate candidate Alvin Greene avoided any major gaffes Sunday as he hit his three major themes of jobs, education and justice. The speech started off with a joke and ended with Greene timidly waving, a shy smile spreading across his face as he got a standing ovation before a friendly audience in his hometown of Manning. Greeneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 61â &#x201E;2 minute speech at the local NAACPâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s monthly meeting was mostly serious. Left out was any mention of his suggestion earlier this month that creating a line of action figures modeled after him could give South Carolinians jobs. In their place came platitudes familiar to anyone who has heard a stump speech.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s get South Carolina and America back to work and letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s move South Carolina forward,â&#x20AC;? said Greene, one of about a dozen lines that got applause from the several hundred folks crammed into a sweltering junior high gymnasium. While singing and speeches by others slowly unfolded before Greene took the podium, the candidate occasionally fidgeted, wiped his brow and intently studied a black spiral notebook where he apparently wrote his remarks. The speech by the 32-year-old unemployed military veteran had very few of the long pauses that have marked his unprepared conversations with reporters. He opened by joking that he was not only the best candidate for Senate, but also the best choice for one of next yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s NAACP Image

Awards. After that, he turned serious. Greene rattled off national job loss statistics, and he said the state needs to put more people to work adding more lanes to hurricane evacuation routes. On education, he mentioned the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dismal rankings in standardized tests. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Parents need to take more of a part in their childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s education, especially parents of underperforming students,â&#x20AC;? Greene said, offering no specifics about how to ensure their increased involvement. And when he talked about justice, he called for giving first-time offenders a chance to do community service and pay a fine to have their records wiped clean, which called to mind his own legal troubles. Greene is facing a felony charge of showing obscene Internet photos to a University of South Carolina student.

RALEIGH (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The General Assembly returned home after this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s session with each party feeling pretty good before heading into their biggest campaign season in 10 years. Democrats can boast they didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t cut more teachers or raise taxes further to close a budget gap that could ultimately reach $1.3 billion. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have demonstrated we know how to put creating jobs at the top of the agenda, protecting the education system that creates jobs,â&#x20AC;? said House Speaker Joe Hackney, D-Orange. GOP lawmakers can argue they were unified in supporting additional cuts to prepare for another $3 billion shortfall next year, but the Democrats just wanted to keep spending like the president and Democrats in Congress. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been saying for a number of years that the state of North Carolina has a spending problem,â&#x20AC;? said Senate Minor-

ity Leader Phil Berger, R-Rockingham. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The fiscal mismanagement that the state has seen under Democratic control is really the overriding issue in the legislative campaign this year.â&#x20AC;? For all the legislation lawmakers can crow about and party lines spouting as the session ended July 10, control of the General Assembly in 2011 could come down to just two words: money and moods. With money, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about whether Republicans can stay competitive with Democrats for a change with campaign fundraising so money for ads and mailers can be funneled to key swing districts. But itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also about whether the public feels like thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s enough money in their own wallets because the economy is recovering or sputtering. Voters will decide whether they want to make a statement about the direction of the country or state, or only about their incumbent alone.

ear Abby: I am being married in October and asked my best friend of 19 years to be my maid of honor. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Briannaâ&#x20AC;? likes to dye the bottom of her hair red. I asked her to take the red out of her hair for the wedding, but she flat-out refused! When I told her that it is MY wedding and I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want any red hair because it wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t match my color scheme, her exact words were, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t care.â&#x20AC;? Am I wrong for asking Brianna to remove the dye? How do I get her to realize this is my wedding and I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to be upstaged! Please help me. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Seeing Red in Maryland Dear Seeing Red: Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll try. When you picked your best friend of 19 years to stand up with you at your wedding, you knew what she looked like. Either you should have picked another color scheme for the production, or chosen a cast member who was suitably mousy that she wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t dim your spotlight. Please note that I am using theatrical terms because you have lost sight of what a wedding really should be. What a shame. Dear Abby: I am 20, and my life seems to be going nowhere. I graduated from high school two years ago and have put off going to college. I am obese and have no willpower to exercise to get healthy. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m constant-

ly thinking about the past. In high school I had few friends, none of ADVICE whom keep in touch Dear with me. Abby I recently â&#x2013; â&#x2013; â&#x2013; bumped into a former guy friend at a store. We were close during my junior year, but he ignored me in my senior year. At the store, he didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t speak to me, which was hurtful. It reminded me of the pain I felt back in school. I always felt so alone. My dream is to be an actress, go back to school and lose weight. But I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t actually see myself accomplishing any of it. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know what to do with myself anymore. Can you offer me some guidance? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Going Crazy in Phoenix Dear Going Crazy: Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m glad you wrote, because you may suffer from long-term depression. Please schedule an appointment with a doctor and tell him or her exactly what you have described to me. With help, you may be able to stop needing to comfort yourself with food and find the energy you need to become more active. If you want to be an actress, see what acting classes are available in Phoenix and if there is any regional theater. Not all actresses have to be skinny.

And one more thing. The former classmate you saw in the store may not have seen you, which is why he didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t say hello, or he may not have matured since graduation. This is not a reflection of what you are worth â&#x20AC;&#x201C; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a reflection on him. Dear Abby: It is picnic and barbecue season, and I would like to inform you of a disturbing trend that seems to be growing. When guests arrive at gatherings, they tend to prepare â&#x20AC;&#x153;to goâ&#x20AC;? plates as soon as they arrive, take the plates to their cars, and then return to eat as if they had just arrived. My mother-in-law thinks this practice is just fine. I think it is tasteless, to say the least. Will you please settle this disagreement between us? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Appalled in Chicago Dear Appalled: If this is a â&#x20AC;&#x153;trend,â&#x20AC;? this is the first time I have heard about it. You may feel that taking food from a party to a hot car and returning to attend the gathering is â&#x20AC;&#x153;tasteless.â&#x20AC;? I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s downright dangerous because it could lead to food poisoning. The time to take leftovers is at the END of the party. DEAR ABBY is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

CHARLOTTE (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Rescue workers are searching Lake Norman in North Carolina for two people who went under while swimming off a boat and did not resurface. Mecklenburg EMS deputy director Jeff Keith said in a news release that four people had gone in swimming off the boat Sunday in a main channel of the lake. The Charlotte Observer reported that scanner traffic indicated the missing were a teenager and a younger child. Officials would not confirm their ages.

eâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve all become dependent on the many modern conveniences that flood the market. We have coffee makers that automatically turn on while weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in bed and clothes dryers that do everything but fold our clothes. We have blenders, waffle makers and the list goes on. All these appliances make FIREHOUSE our lives easier, CHAT but we should Lee be aware Knight that they â&#x2013; â&#x2013; â&#x2013; can malfunction, and when they do, it can lead to a fire. Electrical appliances are normally safe, but over the years Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve seen several instances in which appliances malfunctioned, leading to fires. I believe we would be better off by erring on the side of caution when it comes to fire safety. Hopefully the following tips will make your home safer. When using any appliance, always follow the manufacturerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s safety precautions. Unplug all appliances when theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not in use. If the appliance is not connected to an electrical source, you have eliminated a potential fire hazard. Do not overload circuits with multiple appliances, and never use an extension cord to power appliances. Appliances should be plugged directly into an outlet or power strip. If your appliance has an unusual smell, emits sparks or makes unusual noises, immediately replace it or have it serviced by a qualified repairman. When unplugging appliances, make sure to pull on the plug and not the cord to minimize possible damage to the electrical cord. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t leave dryers running when no one is home. Dryer fires are not unusual and can easily start a fire that can destroy your home. Use the same precautions with power tools. I remember one incident in which a tool owner luckily avoided disaster with a cordless drill. He set the battery for his cordless drill on the carpet while it was charging. He returned a short time later to find the battery so hot he couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t touch it. No damage was done, but it could have been a different ending if the charger was left overnight. Education and caution reduce chances of a fire. Taking time to unplug appliances is one more way to make your home safer. 24/7/365: You call; we respond.

ear Dr. Donohue: What are your feelings about Actonel? There’s been talk that it causes bones to break after taking it for five or more years. I have taken it for five years. Should I stay on it? I take calcium and vitamins, and I swim and work out. – E.R.

BLONDIE

Dear Dr. Donohue: A friend of a friend was going down a flight of stairs and was three steps from the bottom. She fell and broke her hip. She was told that Fosamax caused the bone to break. I would like your input on this. – B.J.

B.C.

The most effective medicines for prevention of broken bones due to osteoporosis are the class of drugs called bisphosphonates. Fosamax (alendronate), Actonel (risedronate), Boniva (ibandronate) and Reclast (zoledronate) are their brand and generic names. Every day, bone is being absorbed and rebuilt. At older ages, absorption outpaces rebuilding, so bones become osteoporotic. Bisphosphonates slow the absorption process. These drugs have been proven to prevent hip fractures from osteoporosis. A few years ago, it was noted that some women on long-term bisphosphonate treatment were suffering fractures of

their thigh bones (femurs) – not the same kind of fractures due to osteopoHEALTH rosis, but fractures Dr. Paul of the Donohue thigh ■■■ about midway down the bone It’s been suggested that long-term use of bisphosphonates could be responsible for these fractures. Actually, the number of broken thighs allegedly due to bisphosphonates is quite low even in people who have taken the drugs for 10 years. So what’s the upshot? As of March 2010, the Food and Drug Administration has not suggested any change in how bisphosphonates are used or the length of time they’re taken. Some experts, however, feel it is wise to take a vacation from these drugs after five or 10 years of use. This is an issue best addressed by your own doctor, who can assess your risk of suffering from an osteoporosis fracture. If a vacation is suggested, keep taking calcium and vitamin D, and performing weightbearing exercise like walking. (Swimming isn’t weight-bearing.) And other osteoporosis drugs are available.

Forteo is an example. Dear Dr. Donohue: I am 69 and have just found out that I have a fatty liver. What is the cause? What do I do to get rid of it? – S.J. Fatty livers are found in 29 million Americans. The condition is called NAFLD, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. It produces no symptoms and is not an immediate health danger. It might, however, progress to NASH, nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, which is a health danger. In this condition, the fat irritates the liver cells, which, in turn, can produce liver scarring, cirrhosis and liver failure. If you are overweight, weight loss almost always returns the liver to normal. It doesn’t have to be a huge weight loss. A 5 percent reduction of current body weight usually straightens matters out. You should minimize your consumption of saturated fats and sugars. An increase in physical activity is another way to defat the liver. Alcohol should be avoided or taken infrequently. DR.

Douglas, as the tomboyish Elly May, befriends ‘possum for magazine cover.

Makin’ Mama proud ‘60s television star Donna Douglas liked wholesome values of ‘The Beverly Hillbillies’ BY JIMMY TOMLIN ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

INSTON-SALEM – For nearly two hours Friday morning, the former actress – once one of Hollywood’s most familiar faces – sat behind a simple fold-up table, signing autographs, posing for photographs and making small talk with visitors. Her name – Donna Douglas – probably doesn’t ring a bell for most people, even many of those who watched her week after week on television during the 1960s. And honestly, if you didn’t know who she was – who she played on TV – you’d be hard-pressed to identify her by looks alone. It’s not that she doesn’t look good – she looks terrific for a 76-year-old woman – but she’s some four decades removed from her heyday as Elly May Clampett, the blonde bombshell and erstwhile tomboy on the CBS sitcom “The Beverly Hillbillies,” so the features aren’t quite the same. Maybe she’d be more recognizable posing out by the “cement pond,” Elly May’s naive

’I made a commitment to God, and that commitment was that I believed with all my heart that if I’d do the best I could do, God would take care of me.’ Donna Douglas Elly May Clampett term for the swimming pool at the family’s Beverly Hills mansion. Nonetheless, there she sat at an autograph table Friday, charging $15 per autographed photo at the Western Film Fair, an annual festival in Winston-Salem that pays tribute to old westerns and classic television shows. At tables beside hers sat Sonny Shroyer, who played Deputy Sheriff Enos Strate on “The Dukes of Hazzard,” and Grace Lee Whitney, who played the recurring role of Janice Rand on “Star Trek.” But Douglas was the woman of the hour – signing, posing, chatting and occasionally re-creating the shrill, two-fingered whistle she made famous on “The Beverly Hillbillies” when summoning her “critters.” “I love meeting people,” Douglas said during a brief interview when the stream of fans finally dwindled. “I go to a few trade shows, parades, that kind of thing, but more so than doing shows, I speak at churches and youth groups.”

A party to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Boy Scouts of America will be held July 31 at BB&T Ballpark, 951 Ballpark Way, WinstonSalem. It is hosted by The Old Hickory Council. Gates open at 3 p.m., and the event will begin at 4 p.m. and culminate with a fireworks display at 9:15 p.m. The opening ceremony of the centennial celebration will take place at 6 p.m., and a Parade of Units will follow. Scouts and Scout leaders will march with their troops and units. Revive, an Atlanta-based rock/pop band, will perform at 7 p.m. At 8 p.m. “The Centennial Celebration Show” from the 100th Anniversary National Scout Jamboree at Fort A.P. Hill, Va., will be transmitted via satellite at the stadium. Tickets, which include a special commemorative patch, are $7, free for age 5 and younger. Limited edition Old Hickory Council 100th anniversary T-shirts are available for $7.50 in advance or $10 at the event. Tickets and shirts are available online at www.oldhickory council.org.

Actress Donna Douglas signs autograph for pistol-packing fan Friday in Winston-Salem. Sunday night, for example, she spoke at a church in Madison before heading back to her home outside of Baton Rouge, La. Faith has played a huge role in Douglas’ life, she said. How else could you explain a poor country girl from Louisiana finding her way to New York and then Hollywood, where she became one of Hollywood’s best-loved actresses? “When I left home to go to New York,” Douglas said, “I made a commitment to God, and that commitment was that I believed with all my heart that if I’d do the best I could do, God would take care of me – I just believed that.” To this day, when she signs autographs, she always includes a reference to her favorite Scripture, Proverbs 3:5-6, which says: “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.” That verse describes how God took care of Douglas when she launched her career in the entertainment field, she said. After finding a few modeling jobs in New York, Douglas turned her attention to acting and ended up going to California, where she began to get small parts in television shows. “This producer I had worked with said, ‘We’re gonna be interviewing girls for this new show – why don’t you come in and read

for it?’” Douglas recalled. “So I did. I read some of the script – and I probably whistled for him, too – and Paul Henning (the show’s creator) asked me if I wanted the part. I was so excited, all I could do was bob my head up and down. I was excited to get a family show, doing something my mama could be proud of.” The show ran for nine seasons (1962-71) – and was No. 1 during its first two seasons – and Douglas played Elly May for the show’s duration. In 1966, she also starred opposite Elvis Presley on the big screen in “Frankie and Johnny.” She’s done some acting since “Hillbillies” went off the air – including reprising her role of Elly May for the 1981 made-for-TV movie “The Return of the Beverly Hillbillies” – but she largely faded from the business. Today, Douglas still speaks highly of the show that made her famous – not just because it was funny, but because it was wholesome. “We had wonderful morals and wonderful principles,” she said. “I mean, the hillbillies, we loved people, we loved animals, we were kind and we tried to do right by all people. People may not have thought we were too smart, but we had basic family values, and that always worked for us.”

You hold: S 6 3 2 H K J 9 8 3 D A 4 C A K 6. Your partner opens one diamond, you respond one heart and he bids one spade. What do you say?

South succeeds if he never tries to draw trumps. He takes the top diamonds, ruffs a diamond and leads a spade to the king. East wins, cashes a second spade and leads the queen of clubs. South takes the A-K, ruffs a spade and leads dummy’s last diamond. When East discards, South ruffs and exits with a club. He is left with K-J9 of trumps, dummy with A-10-7. With a defender to

‘Inception’ earns dreamy reception with $60.4M LOS ANGELES (AP) – Leonardo DiCaprio and Christopher Nolan’s “Inception” is anything but a sleeper as the thriller opened big with $60.4 million and a No. 1 finish at the weekend box office, according to studio estimates Sunday. The Warner Bros. action tale about a team that sneaks into people’s

CROSSWORD

Monday, July 19, 2010 CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Jared Padalecki, 28; Anthony Edwards, 48; Campbell Scott, 49; Vikki Carr, 70 HAPPY BIRTHDAY: Don’t let someone else’s indecisiveness stop you from doing what you want to do, especially with home, family and personal projects. This is a year of commitment, completion and striving for perfection. There is so much to gain from an honest effort. You will have the added discipline to follow through. It’s all about forward thinking. Your numbers are 3, 9, 13, 17, 26, 39, 44 ARIES (March 21-April 19): Bide your time. If you are too quick to judge or make a move, it may lead to an argument, the inability to get ahead or failure to make the changes you long for. Be patient, with an unassuming and gracious approach. ★★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Don’t try to do the impossible. Your regular hard work will pay off without all the aggravation of bells and whistles that are flashy but not necessary. Love is on the rise. ★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You may not please everyone, but the people with vision will recognize your value and offer you a unique proposal. Don’t be fooled by someone’s flirting. Chances are this person is just after information. ★★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): You’ll be forced to make changes if you try to ignore what needs to be done. You may not like to upset your routine, but that’s what it will take if you want to relieve tension that has built up between you and someone you deal with regularly. ★★★★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Trouble is brewing emotionally. It’s best if you deal with it head-on. An old lover may stir up some leftover feelings. Working with someone you have designs on will make your job difficult. ★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You can accomplish your dreams if you concentrate on your career. Working hard to benefit someone else is not going to make you happy, successful or rich. You have what it takes to stand out and be noticed, so strategize and get ahead. ★★★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You may be presented with lots of possibilities but, if it requires you to put your own money on the line, it’s best to back away. Don’t let emotional issues be the reason you give in to someone’s pestering you. A hidden matter will be revealed when you least expect. ★★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You’ve got more allies than you realize. Utilize your connections to help you get something up and running on which you’ve worked long and hard. An emotional relationship will influence a decision you make. ★★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Added responsibilities will lead to problems. Make sure you finish one task before you take on another. Unexpected changes will cause you to overreact. Respond instead of reacting. ★★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You’ve got all the right moves and the finesse and charisma to carry off anything you are trying to get done. Your insight and hard work will bring financial gain and help you redefine a connection you have to someone you find motivating. ★★★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You’ll have a hard time settling down or into whatever you are supposed to be working on. Don’t lead anyone to believe you are doing something you are not. Be honest if you want to be treated with respect. ★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Be aware of what everyone else is doing so you can make the right move. Partnerships look good as long as you are fair. Strive for perfection. Love is present, so make the best of it. ★★★★★

BRIDGE The humorist Robert Benchley said there are two kinds of people: those who think there are two kinds of people, and those who don’t. While you’re digesting that one, look at today’s deal, where South was the kind of person who believed in drawing trumps early. He took the ace of diamonds and blithely cashed the A-K of trumps. When West discarded, South led a diamond to the king, ruffed a diamond and took the A-K of clubs. East carefully unblocked his Q-J, and when South exited with a club, West won and led a spade. East then got two spades and a trump: down one.

HOROSCOPE

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.

BASEBALL ATLANTA 11 MILWAUKEE 6

BY STEVE HANF ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER

GREENSBORO – Coaches, players and fans will flock to Greensboro this week for the annual celebration of some of the state’s top athletes. The East-West All-Star Games run tonight through Wednesday in conjunction with the coaching clinics sponsored by the N.C. Coaches Association. The clinics conclude Thursday. The all-star games, open to recently graduated seniors, begin tonight at the Greensboro Coliseum. The 35th annual women’s basketball all-star game tips at 6:30, with the 62nd annual men’s game following at about 8:15. Area athletes competing in the contest are Southwest Guilford’s Cheyenne Parker and Bishop McGuinness’ Aaron Toomey. Both games feature several high-profile players. The West women’s roster features two players headed to the ACC in Forestview’s Shannon Smith (North Carolina) and East Lincoln’s Lindsy Wright (Wake Forest). The East counters with Perquimans’ Quinyotta Pettaway (Clemson) and Northern Durham’s Breezy Williams (N.C. State). Parker will play at High Point University next winter. The men’s game is headlined by Kinston’s Reggie Bullock, the future Tar Heel. The East team also includes future Wingate teammates Robert Carpenter (from Fayetteville Sanford) and Jamaal Williams (Southwest Onslow), plus Guilford Tech-signee RaSean Brewington of Goldsboro. Future HPU player Justin Cheek heads the West roster. Joining the Ardrey Kell High star will be future UNC Greensboro player Kendall Bethea of East Lincoln and Amherst-bound Toomey. The 19th annual soccer showcases take place Tuesday at UNCG Soccer Stadium. The West women’s team will be sparked by Ragsdale goalkeeper Alex Kubrick. Game times are at 6:30 p.m. for the women and about 8:30 for the men. The final all-star game Wednesday will feature some of the state’s best football players. The contest at Grimsley High School’s Jamieson Stadium begins at 8 p.m. and features High Point Central’s Jimmy Moorman, Trinity’s T.J. Bulla and Ragsdale’s Chris Armwood. Tickets each day – good for entry to both games tonight and Tuesday plus the halftime fireworks show Wednesday – cost $10 for adults and $5 for students. Parking is $5 per car at the Coliseum. There is no parking fee at Grimsley for the football game, but donations to the Oasis Shrine are accepted. shanf@hpe.com | 888-3526

South Africa’s Louis Oosthuizen hugs the claret jug after winning the British Open Championship on the Old Course at St. Andrews, Scotland, on Sunday. He earned golf’s oldest trophy by a seven-shot margin.

Old Course, new winner ST. ANDREWS, Scotland (AP) – Louis Oosthuizen walked over the Swilcan Bridge toward a victory that was never in doubt Sunday at St. Andrews, another big moment in sports for South Africa. This celebration, though, carried a different tune. The drone of vuvuzelas, all the rage at the World Cup, was replaced by the skirl of bagpipes coming from behind the Royal & Ancient clubhouse. For the 27year-old South African, the sound could not have been sweeter. With a performance that rivaled the dominance of Tiger Woods at the home of golf 10 years ago, Oosthuizen led over the final 48 holes and blew away the field by seven shots to capture the British Open. “To win an Open championship is special,” Oosthuizen said. “But to win it at St. Andrews ... it’s something you dream about.” The timing could not have been better – one week after South Africa concluded a popular World Cup, and the day Nelson Mandela celebrated his 92nd birthday. “It felt a bit special, really,” he said. “When I walked down 18, I was thinking about his birthday.”

By then, the hard work was done. Oosthuizen (WUHST’-hyzen) made only two bogeys over the final 35 holes in a strong wind that swept across the Old Course. The only challenge came from Paul Casey, who got within three shots after the eighth hole, then drove the green on the par-4 ninth. Oosthuizen answered by hitting driver onto the green and knocking in a 50-foot eagle putt to restore his cushion. Three holes later, Casey hit into a gorse bush and made triple bogey, while Oosthuizen holed an 18-foot birdie putt. Oosthuizen spent the final hour soaking up an atmosphere unlike any other in golf with his caddie, Zack Rasego. He finished at 16-under 272 and became the first player since Tony Lema in 1964 to win his first major at St. Andrews. Just as Lema did when he won, Oosthuizen ordered bottles of champagne for the press. Never mind that everyone struggled to pronounce his name. All that mattered was the spelling on the bottom of that claret jug. And yes, the engraver used

BRITISH OPEN AT A GLANCE

---

A brief look at the final round of the British Open: Winner: Louis Oosthuizen shot a 1-under 71 for a sevenstroke victory at 16-under 272. Runner-up: Lee Westwood of England, the No. 3 player in the world, was at 279 after a 70. Tiger Tales: Tiger Woods changed putters but could only manage a 72 that left him at 3under 285, in a tie for 23rd. Fashion police: John Daly broke out his star-spangled pants for the final round, but was upstaged by the Great Pumpkin, a.k.a. Rickie Fowler. The former Oklahoma State star went with his alma mater’s color from head to toe, to the trim on his Rolex watch. Red, white and boo: Only two Americans – Sean O’Hair and Nick Watney – cracked the top 10, not a good sign for October’s Ryder Cup defense.

the abbreviated version – Louis – not his given name of Lodewicus Theodorus Oosthuizen.

Dwyane Wade is keeping track. He’s heard analysts say this Miami Heat lineup will be a flop. He’s heard other players lash out over the way LeBron James made his decision. He’s heard executives from other teams list Boston and Orlando as the teams to beat in the East. All duly noted. He’s not bothered nor angered, he says. But at the Summer Groove charity game Wade co-hosted Sunday with Alonzo Mourning, he acknowledged that when the Heat convene for training camp in late September, the naysayers will serve as motivation for himself, James, Chris Bosh and everyone else inside the reloaded Miami locker room. “My whole career is built on fuel,” Wade said. “It’s always been there. It’s not going to change what I do with my life. It’s not going to change the way I am as a person. But it fuels you. And we all need that.” Sunday, with a dozen NBA pals, Wade entertained a crowd of 15,000 in a glorified exhibition of dunking, 3-pointers and a halftime concert. Common, the rapper, was on one bench and boxer Floyd Mayweather Jr. coached Wade’s team.

HIT AND RUN

---

pon entering High Point Friends Meeting on Sunday, the first thing one saw was the bulletin that featured a large color photo of a golf bag and clubs backed by green grass and blue sky. Upon entering the sanctuary, the first thing one saw was Glenn Heer’s golf bag, front and center at the stage, the furry Bison head-cover seemingly keeping watch over those assembled to celebrate Glenn’s life. Why not? Sports, after all, have served as a catharsis for individuals and entire nations for years. Glenn loved losing himself on a golf course to escape the unending medical procedures he endured. So it seemed fitting that everyone who gathered to celebrate the 19-yearold’s life be allowed to escape from the sad-

ness of the event, if only for a moment. There were stories of Glenn’s love of hunting and fishing, his rise to the rank of Eagle Scout, his participation in musicals and plays at High Point Friends. But the golf stories aced them all. His hole-in-one at Blair Park. His desire to keep playing a round even as snow began to fall. His rise to all-conference status at High Point Central. His ability to beat grown men on the course despite standing 4-foot-10 and battling an immunodeficiency disease that, though part of his life forever, took him suddenly last Wednesday just when it appeared Glenn had it beat. The only word mentioned more than golf Sunday was “courage,” a quality Glenn had enough of to fill every lake and bunker

on every golf course ever designed. Glenn possessed the courage to live each day to the fullest, no matter the obstacles, and in so doing became a shining light to all who knew him. As the ancient Sanskrit poem on the front of the bulletin stated: For yesterday is but a dream, and tomorrow is only a vision. But today well-lived makes every yesterday a dream of happiness and every tomorrow a vision of hope. Look well, therefore, to this day... If Glenn’s days could be so well-lived in the face of the enormous challenges he faced, why not ours?

Feud resumes in Edwards’ win MADISON, Ill. (AP) – Carl Edwards meant no harm to Brad Keselowski. He just wanted to take the checkered flag that he deserved. Edwards prevailed in a wild final lap, nudging Keselowski out of control on the final straightaway to take the Nationwide Dodge Dealers 250 late Saturday night. Ten cars were involved in the mess. “The deal is he’ll eventually learn he can’t run into my car over and over and put me in bad situations,” Edwards said. “In every situation, there’s an aggressor and there’s someone who reacts. “I was not the aggressor in this situation.” Keselowski was on the inside and had appeared to take the lead before Edwards’ car drifted into him. Keselowski spun into the wall and was struck head-on by Shelby Howard as he slid back to toward the infield. Edwards said Keselowski wouldn’t have been in position to win if he hadn’t bumped Edwards earlier on the final lap. “The way it went, he bumped me and he finished wherever he finished and I still won the race,” Edwards said. “That’s the only way I could see the race turning out fair.” Keselowski finally rolled across the line in 14th. He wasn’t hurt, just peeved. “I’m sure he’ll say how sorry he is, or how cool he thinks he is or how great of a guy he is in his own mind,” said Keselowski, who leads the Nationwide series by 168 points over Edwards. “But that’s not reality.”

Edwards, of Columbia, Mo., won for the third time at Gateway International Raceway, which he considers his home track. Reed Sorenson was second and 19-year-old pole-sitter Trevor Bayne third. Sorenson said he was just trying to avoid the mess. “I couldn’t hardly see what happened,” Sorenson said. “The 60 (Edwards) obviously got into the right rear of the 22 (Keselowski). I just hoped I would beat the 60 to the line.” Keselowski was runnerup in the Camping World 200 truck race earlier Saturday, and led much of the Nationwide series event. He said the contact in turn 1 on the final lap was incidental. “I was rubbing on him a little bit,” Keselowski said. “I figured out a way to beat him. He wasn’t happy with me, so he wrecked me. Wrecking down the straightaway is never cool whether he’s at 200 mph or 120.” Edwards insisted it was justice. “That’s my job, to win the race, and to make sure I don’t get walked on or get something taken away from me that’s mine,” he said. “I’m sure tempers are up right now, but hopefully after looking at it we can each step in the other’s shoes and see it from the other perspective.” Ryan Truex, 18-year-old younger brother of twotime Nationwide champion Martin Truex Jr., was 28th in his debut. “This was more fun than I ever thought it would be,” he said. “I always wondered what it would be like and it was better than I ever imagined.”

Power takes Toronto TORONTO (AP) – Will Power knew when to be aggressive and when to play it safe Sunday in the wreck-filled Honda Indy Toronto. After patiently avoiding early trouble, the IndyCar leader boldly passed Justin Wilson on the outside off a restart with 14 laps left, then held off Dario Franchitti for his second straight victory and fourth of the season, “As I predicted, it was a very wild race,” Power said. “It started on the first corner for me when I had Helio (Castroneves) and (Ryan) Hunter-Reay come cruising up the inside. I was like, ‘OK, I’ll let those guys go.’ And then I lost a couple of more positions. But I know how this race goes. The key for me when I came to this race

was avoiding carnage.” All four of Power’s victories have come on street or road courses. He won two weeks ago at Watkins Glen and swept the season-opening races in Sao Paulo and St. Petersburg. The Australian, 42 points ahead of Franchitti, is in his first full season with Team Penske after driving six races last season. Power gave Roger Penske his 150th open-wheel win and 41st in the IndyCar Series. Hunter-Reay was third, followed by Tony Kanaan, Graham Rahal, Danica Patrick, Wilson, Marco Andretti, Simona de Silvestro and Dan Wheldon. “It was like a football game out there,” HunterReay said. “Everyone was hitting everybody else.”

Tour leaders wait it out DOMAINES, France (AP) – With the Pyrenees all too ready to punish riders, overall leader Andy Schleck and defending champion Alberto Contador sized each other up, matching wits and pedal strokes in a high-altitude waiting game at the Tour de France. Sunday’s victory belonged to Christophe Riblon, a relatively unknown Frenchman who won a stage in cycling’s showcase race for the first time. Schleck leads Contador, his closest rival, by 31 seconds. Both arrived with the same time, more than a minute behind Riblon. They lost a few seconds to the next clos-

LEMOND ’NONSENSE’

Lance Armstrong dismissed as “nonsense” a claim by Greg LeMond that the seven-time Tour de France champion tried to pay someone $300,000 to say LeMond used a banned drug. LeMond, a three-time Tour de France champion, said Armstrong tried to implicate him “by all means” in a scandal involving EPO. Armstrong dismissed the accusation Sunday.

Milwaukee Brewers right fielder Corey Hart can’t reach a ball hit for a grand slam by Atlanta’s Brian McCann in the third inning of Sunday’s game in Atlanta. The first-place Braves cruised to an 11-6 victory.

Bizarre homer sparks Tribe THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CLEVELAND – Jhonny Peralta’s flyball sent Detroit’s Ryan Rayburn crashing through a bullpen door for an inside-the-park homer and Jeanmar Gomez won his major league debut as the Indians beat the Tigers 7-2 on Sunday to complete a four-game sweep. Gomez (1-0), called up from Triple-A Columbus to make a spot start, allowed two unearned runs over seven innings. The righthander was staked to a 3-0 lead in the first inning when Peralta legged out his seventh homer of the season. With runners on first and second and two outs, Peralta hit a 1-1 pitch from Andy Oliver (0-4) toward the Cleveland bullpen. Center fielder Raburn tried for a leaping catch, but tumbled through the bullpen door. The ball caromed off the wall and by the time left fielder Brennan Boesch could retrieve it, Peralta, one of the slowest players on Cleveland’s roster, was chugging around the bases.

YANKEES 9, RAYS 5 NEW YORK – Alex Rodriguez and the Yankees knocked around All-Star starter David Price, overcoming an early injury to Andy Pettitte with brilliant work by the bullpen. Robinson Cano hit a two-run triple, Jorge Posada a two-run double and Rodriguez added his 598th home run for the Yankees. Five relievers picked up for Pettitte, who came out in the third because of a strained left groin.

RANGERS 4, RED SOX 2 BOSTON – C.J. Wilson struck out a career-high 10 and Texas capitalized on Boston’s throwing problems to beat the Red Sox. The Rangers scored in the fourth when third baseman Adrian Beltre couldn’t handle catcher Dusty Brown’s throw as Nelson Cruz headed for the base. They got another run in the fifth when Julio Borbon stole home after Brown threw to second where Andrus was trying to steal.

BLUE JAYS 10, ORIOLES 1 BALTIMORE – Yunel Escobar hit his first career grand slam during a six-run second inning and led

SAN DIEGO – Chris Denorfia homered twice and had four hits, and Everth Cabrera tripled in the go-ahead run moments before being ejected for a tussle with Mark Reynolds. Both of Denorfia’s home runs were solo shots, and his four hits matched a career high.

PIRATES 9, ASTROS 0

KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Adam Rosales, Kevin Kouzmanoff and Jack Cust each went deep, and Vin Mazzaro pitched into the eighth inning to help Oakland finish a three-game sweep.

PITTSBURGH – Paul Maholm pitched a three-hitter for his second career shutout and the Pirates established a season high for hits for the second consecutive game. Maholm (6-7) faced only two batters above the minimum in needing 103 pitches to throw his first shutout since April 24, 2007, also against Houston. The Pirates had 19 hits a day after amassing 17.

MARINERS 2, ANGELS 1 (10) ANAHEIM, Calif. – Jose Lopez hit a tie-breaking RBI single in the 10th inning, helping Seattle snap an eight-game losing streak to the Angels. Ichiro Suzuki drew a leadoff walk from Kevin Jepsen (2-2) and advanced on Chone Figgins’ sacrifice bunt. He then was caught in a rundown on a Franklin Gutierrez’s grounder to shortstop. Gutierrez stole second and scored when Lopez lined a 2-1 pitch to left field.

TWINS, 7, WHITE SOX 6 MINNEAPOLIS – Delmon Young capped a four-run ninth inning with a two-run single, lifting Minnesota to a comeback victory. With Chicago closer Bobby Jenks (1-2) on the mound, Orlando Hudson walked in a 10-pitch at-bat and Joe Mauer walked on four straight pitches. Jason Kubel had an RBI single to left-center to make it 6-4. Michael Cuddyer singled in a run and end Jenks’ day. Sergio Santos walked Jason Repko to load the bases before Young hit a single to right-center. Alex Rios’ throw to the infield rolled to the White Sox dugout, allowing Cuddyer to score.

METS 4, GIANTS 3, 10 INNINGS SAN FRANCISCO – Ike Davis doubled home the go-ahead run in 10th inning after the Mets wasted a two-run lead in the ninth. Travis Ishikawa’s two-run, pinch-hit single tied the game in the ninth inning, but he was thrown out at the plate on an infield chopper as the potential winning run. Replays showed Ishikawa appeared to be safe. Giants closer Brian Wilson (2-1) got two outs in the 10th before giving up Jason Bay’s third single. Davis, who also drove in a run in the eighth, doubled high off the right field wall.

CARDINALS 5, DODGERS 4 ST. LOUIS – Matt Holliday drove in the winning run with two outs in the ninth inning, and the Cardinals rallied from a four-run deficit to finish a four-game sweep. Allen Craig filled in for Albert Pujols, who got the day off for just the second time this season, and drove in three runs in the final two innings on his 26th birthday.

ROCKIES 1, REDS 0 CINCINNATI – Chris Iannetta homered off left-hander Travis Wood, who was coming off a nearly perfect performance, and Aaron Cook got a breakthrough win on the road for Colorado. Iannetta connected in the sixth, one of only three hits off Wood (01), the rookie who allowed only one hit over nine innings his last time out but got no decision.

One bad round costs McIlroy big BRITISH OPEN NOTES:

rest of the top five hail from England (Lee Westwood and Paul Casey), Northern Ireland (Rory McIlroy) and Sweden (Henrik Stenson). Not until the seventh place is there an American, and no, the name isn’t Tiger Woods or Phil Mickelson. Sean O’Hair and Nick Watney were the only Americans in the top 10 on Sunday. Woods tied for 23rd. Mickelson, who could have taken over the No. 1 ranking for the first time in his career with a win on the Old Course, tied for 48th. Neither was ever in contention. “I’m not going to win all of them,” Woods said. “I’ve lost a lot more than I’ve won.” The results at St. Andrews are part of a trend that could spell trouble for the Americans at the Ryder Cup, which will be played in Wales in October. Golfers from Britain and Northern Ireland won three straight PGA Tour events last month and four of five, including Graeme McDowell’s win at the U.S. Open. Of the top 25 at St. Andrews, 13 were European players. “We’re going to have a great team,” England’s Paul Casey said. “It doesn’t guarantee a victory, but I think we’ll be pretty good.” Europe has won five of the last seven Ryder Cups.

ST. ANDREWS, Scotland (AP) – One bad round. One completely, utterly awful round. Take that away, and Rory McIlroy’s walk up the 18th fairway Sunday at the British Open might have been triumphant. “I couldn’t help but think about Friday going up the last hole there,” McIlroy said after shooting a 68 that moved him into a tie for third. “You know, if I had just sort of stuck in a little bit more on Friday and held it together more, it could have been a different story.” McIlroy finished eight strokes behind winner Louis Oosthuizen. Take away the 80 he posted Friday and give him a score in the 60s – as he had the other three days – and it explains why he wasn’t thrilled with his best finish at a major. McIlroy’s best finish at the British Open was a tie for 42nd three years ago. He failed to make the cut at either the Masters or the U.S. Open this year. “I knew that I had a good chance coming in here, and it was nice to sort of be there for a while,” he said. “I’m still a bit disappointed, to be honest, because I know if I could have played anywhere decent on Friday, I could have been a lot closer to the lead. I’m not saying that I could have got to 17 under, but I definitely could have been contending for second place, anyway.” With Lee Westwood, the No. 3 player in the world still nursing a bum leg, McIlroy arrived at St. Andrews as the best hope to end the United Kingdom’s losing streak at its own open. No golfer from Britain or Northern Ireland has hoisted the claret jug since Paul Lawrie in 1999, and Nick Faldo was the last Englishman to win, claiming the last of his three Open titles in 1992. Though only 21, McIlroy is the kind of precocious talent who could carry the continent for a generation. The Northern Irishman turned pro in 2007, earned his European card without going to Q-school and broke into the top 10 in the world before his 21st birthday. He claimed his first PGA Tour win in May, bringing Quail Hollow to its knees with a 62 on Sunday McIlroy tied the majorchampionship record by shooting 63 in pristine conditions Thursday morning. But with the wind howling and the Old Course showing its considerable bite, he blew up with the 80 on Friday afternoon. “When you start off shooting 63 in any golf tournament, you fancy your chances going into the next three days,” McIlroy explained. “It just so happened to be it got very windy on Friday, and I just didn’t deal with it very well. ... “I hadn’t played in wind like that for a long time,” he added. “So it

HALLOWEEN COSTUME

Germany’s Martin Kaymer watches his shot after taking a chunk of the rough with him on the fifth hole during his final round Sunday at the British Open Championship on the Old Course at St. Andrews, Scotland. was a bit of a new experience.” No player had ever shot such a high score after going so low the day before in a major tournament. As the strokes piled up, McIlroy began looking his age, rolling his eyes, slumping his shoulders, kicking the grass. It could have started him on a major meltdown, the kind that can linger for months. Instead, McIlroy went back to his hotel room, ordered room service and went to bed. On Saturday, he came out and shot a 69. “For three rounds, I was 16 under par, so it’s in there. It’s definitely in there,” McIlroy said. “It’s just a pity about Friday.” But don’t expect him to keep wondering, “What if?” “It’s not going to give me nightmares,” he said. “I was 16 under for three rounds of golf around St. Andrews in the Open, and just one bad round. It’s fine.”

YOUNG GUN The older players can relax. Jin Jeong won’t be taking their money for a few more months. The only amateur to make the cut at this British Open tied for 14th, a

finish that would have earned him almost $88,000 if he was a professional. Though Jeong obviously has the game to compete with the big boys, he said he’s put his plans to turn pro in September on hold. “I can play the Masters next year, and I really want to play that tournament,” the British Amateur champion said. “So I’ll probably stay amateur until then.” The 20-year-old has an appreciation for golf’s grandest courses – playing St. Andrews was a “dream come true.” But it also means more sacrifice for him and his family. Like many young South Korean golfers, he headed for Australia in the winter to work on his game when he was about 13. He made the move to Melbourne permanently about four years ago, leaving his parents and sister behind in Korea. He split time between living with a local Korean family or his coach, Trevor Flakemore. Six months ago, his mother and sister relocated to Melbourne, a move that coincides with a sharp improvement in his play. But his father’s job required him to stay in Korea. “That’s why my dad

is not here. He’s working,” Jeong said. “He was going to come here to watch, but his business is going really busy, so he had to stay. It’s a shame.” Jeong hits monster drives – when he outdrove PGA champion Y.E. Yang during a practice round recently, he posted on Facebook that it was the “happiest day in my life!” – and he drove the 18th green for a second straight day. Unlike Saturday, he made a 25-footer to close out his first British Open with an eagle. The crowd, which took a liking to the youngster with the big smile, was delighted. “All week I played really well, and all the crowds gave me claps,” Jeong said. “All week I can’t forget.”

RED, WHITE AND BLUE The British Open leaderboard looked like it was borrowed from a European Tour event. The Americans have owned the claret jug lately, having won seven of the last 10 coming into St. Andrews. They also hold down four of the top five spots in the latest world rankings. But the champion Sunday was Louis Oosthuizen, a South African. The

John Daly finally has some competition for worst outfit. Rickie Fowler did his best imitation of a giant pumpkin in the final round of the British Open on Sunday, decked out in hazard-cone orange from head to toe. Shoes, pants, belt, necklace, cap – even his Rolex had orange accents. “I went to Oklahoma State,” Fowler said of the reason for his Day-Glo outfit. “Not many people wear orange. It’s a good way to stand out.” Actually, Fowler didn’t need any help for that. He finished his first British Open in a tie for 14th at 4-under after posting his second 67 of the week Sunday. He also made one of the best shots of the day, holing a putt of almost 130 feet from off the green for birdie at 17. Fowler tossed the ball into the crowd after he fished it out of the cup. “That was pretty cool,” he said. “I think it’s the longest putt I’ve ever made.” A little payback, too. The PGA Tour rookie had only played two other majors before coming to St. Andrews, tying for 60th at the 2008 U.S. Open and missing the cut last year. He shot a 79 on the Old Course on Thursday thanks, in part, to a double-bogey on 17 after he four-putted from off the green. Scrambling just to make the cut, Fowler rebounded with a 67 on Friday. He was below par each of his last three days, and had just two bogeys – none Sunday.

Bettencourt wins f irst on PGA Tour THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

RENO, Nev. – Matt Bettencourt chipped in for an eagle on the 11th hole, then held off Bob Heintz by a stroke to win for the first time on the PGA Tour. Bettencourt capped his 4-under 68 with a bogey on No. 18 after a birdie on 17, finishing the Reno-Tahoe Open at 11-under 277. After his eagle on the par-5 11th, he played the final seven holes in 1 over par. He also bogeyed the par-4 14th at Montreux Golf & Country Club. Heintz missed a three-foot birdie putt on the 18 that would have forced a playoff. John Merrick and Mathias Gronberg each shot 69 and tied for third at 9-under.

A padlock secures a gate leading to shuttered Chrysler auto dealer Century Motor Corp. Tuesday in Wentzville, Mo. Century lost its Dodge, Chrysler and Jeep dealership last year, but now is suing to force Chrysler to give it back.

TARP official: Feds didn’t justify closing auto dealerships WASHINGTON (AP) – The Treasury Department failed to consider the economic fallout when it told General Motors and Chrysler to quickly shutter many dealerships as part of government-led bankruptcies, a federal watchdog found. A report released Sunday by the special inspector general for the government’s bailout program raised questions about whether the Obama administration’s auto task force considered the job losses from the closings while pressuring the companies to reduce costs. Treasury didn’t show why the cuts were “either necessary for the sake of the companies’ economic survival or prudent for the sake of the nation’s economic recovery,” said the audit by Neil Barofsky, the special inspector general for the Troubled

The audit also found that General Motors ‘did not consistently follow its stated criteria’ for reducing its dealer network and noted that Chrysler failed to offer an appeals process. Asset Relief Program, the $787 billion stimulus program known as TARP. “Treasury made a series of decisions that may have substantially contributed to the accelerated

shuttering of thousands of small businesses,” investigators said. Those decisions resulted in “potentially adding tens of thousands of workers to the already lengthy unemployment rolls – all based on a theory and without sufficient consideration of the decisions’ broader economic impact,” the report said. Treasury officials said they strongly disagreed with many of the findings and said the companies have rebounded because of the government’s efforts. Herbert M. Allison Jr., Treasury’s assistant secretary for financial stability, said the administration’s actions “not only avoided a potentially catastrophic collapse and brought needed stability to the entire auto industry, but they also saved hundreds of thousands of American jobs and gave GM and Chrysler a chance

to re-emerge as viable, competitive American businesses.” The audit also found that General Motors “did not consistently follow its stated criteria” for reducing its dealer network and noted that Chrysler failed to offer an appeals process. The report, sought by lawmakers critical of the dealership closings, was seized upon by Republicans who have questioned the administration’s dealings with private industry during the economic downturn. Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., said the audit “should serve as a wake-up call as to the implications of politically orchestrated bailouts and how putting decisions about private enterprise in the hands of political appointees and bureaucrats can lead to costly and unintended consequences.”

Investors ignore profits to dump stocks NEW YORK (AP) – Profit is so boring. That’s one way to characterize investors’ suddenly blase view of Corporate America’s single most important figure. Earnings gushed last week like oil from the ruptured BP well and were greeted like the same gooey mess. Steel giant Alcoa Inc. blew past expectations, followed by chipmaker Intel Corp.’s best showing in a decade and JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s 76 percent rise. By week’s end stocks of all three had lost earlier gains. On Friday, all major market indices fell more than 2.5 percent. One possible reason for the curious market behavior: We’re all focused

on the big picture now, and things are looking ugly. Last week brought a flurry of news suggesting the recovery may be stalling. The Federal Reserve lowered its estimate for economic growth. That was followed by a pair of disappointing regional manufacturing surveys. Then came the coup de grace: a University of Michigan report Friday showing consumer confidence had fallen. The selling was indiscriminate and frustrating to bulls. “You find a company that you think is great, but if the market is going down, it’s going down, too,” said Linda Duessel, an equity market strate-

gist at Federated Investors. Instead of buying and selling on each company’s merits, “We’re all

macroeconomic economists now.” Or as the title of a UBS report Friday put it,

“Profits get no respect.” Jeffrey Kleintop, chief market strategist of LPL Financial, said he isn’t surprised by investors’ seeming indifference. He recently looked back at stock performance a year into every recovery since World War II. He found consumer confidence fell and investors suddenly started selling – but the market eventually stumbled back and rose smartly again. “Investors change focus away from individual companies to worry that all will be dragged down,” Kleintop said. But, he added, “We always head into a multiyear expansion – every recession.” His advice is to scoop up shares.

Say goodbye to The Record Exchange and hello to earshot. Jack Dennis recently bought The Record Exchange store at 3254 Silas Creek Parkway from Plan 9, based in Richmond, Va. Earshot is an independent music store based in Greenville, S.C. Just like The Record Exchange, earshot sells new and used CDs, DVDs and vinyl records. “We try to stock things for everybody from gospel to rock to country to punk and metal,” Dennis said. Dennis wants earshot to be “sort of like a cultural hot spot where people can come to be inspired and also talk about music and meet other people in the community,” he said. He plans to offer more accessories connected to music such as T-shirts.

Survey: Recovery continues, but slowly NEW YORK (AP) – Economists say the U.S. recovery continued during the second quarter of this year with more businesses hiring workers and fewer cutting jobs, but the pace of growth has slowed, a new survey shows. The National Association for Business Economics said its latest survey, released Monday, found 31 percent of businesses added workers between April and June, the highest level in three years. And 39 percent of those surveyed say they expect to hire more workers over the next six months – the most since January 2008. Manufacturers reported the strongest increase in demand and profitability. Finance, insurance and real estate sectors saw the slowest growth. The number of respondents who think real gross domestic product (GDP) will expand by more than 3 percent this year slid to 20 percent from the 24 percent who expected that rate of growth in April. But sixty-seven percent of respondents still believe the economy will expand by more than 2 percent in 2010.

GE breaks quarterly profit slump THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Cost cutting and an improved financial business helped General Electric Co. post its first increase in quarterly profit since 2007 on Friday, but sales remained

sluggish for the industrial and financial giant. But the second-quarter results also reflect challenges posed to big companies by the nation’s halting recovery. GE’s revenue slipped 4 percent as industries like transportation

were down. GE shares fell 4.6 percent, or 70 cents, to close at $14.55 on Friday. GE’s quarterly net income rose 16 percent to $3 billion, or 28 cents per share, up from $2.6 billion, or 25 cents per share, a year earlier.

NEW ORLEANS (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; A federal official said Sunday that scientists are concerned about a seep and possible methane seen near BPâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s busted oil well in the Gulf of Mexico. Both could be signs there are leaks in the well thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been capped off for three days. The official spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity Sunday because an announcement about the next steps had not yet been made. The official is familiar with the spill oversight but would not clarify what is seeping near the well. The official said BP is not complying with the governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s demand for more monitoring. BP spokesman Mark Salt de-

clined to comment on the allegation, but said â&#x20AC;&#x153;we continue to work very closely with all government scientists on this.â&#x20AC;? Retired Coast Guard Adm. Thad Allen will make the final decisions on the next step. The official said Allen would issue a letter to BP shortly allowing testing to proceed in 24-hour increments, but also requiring more analysis of the seep and the possible observation of methane over the well. If Allen doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get the response he wants, the testing could stop, the official said.

Blagojevich may testify this week CHICAGO (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; After promising for a year and a half to take the witness stand, R o d Blagojevich is likely to testify in Blagojevich his own defense at his federal corruption trial this week. Unlike in his TV interviews, he is going to be under oath. The grilling he gets from attorneys about charges he sought to sell or trade President Barack Obamaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s former Senate seat is guaranteed to be tougher than anything heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s faced. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Barbara Walters is not going to be cross-examining him,â&#x20AC;? says former Assistant U.S. Attorney Jeffrey H. Cramer.
