Davidson County Commissioner Cathy Dunn speaks to group gathered at her home at High Rock Lake about the renewal of the Alcoa permit.
Alcoa foes sound off BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
DAVIDSON COUNTY – Opponents of a relicensing for Alcoa Power Generating Inc. to operate four hydroelectric dams on the Yadkin River argued their case Thursday night during a public meeting on High Rock Lake. Held at the home of Davidson County Commissioner Cathy Dunn, elected officials explained that the hydroelectric dams should be operated by the state and not Alcoa. Many who spoke took shots at Alcoa, saying the company has not been truthful with the public. “As a result of many hours of research and traveling to Raleigh, talking to officials, getting a lot of facts, I began to see that Alcoa was really not the good citizen that it

components of a blockbuster movie – deceit, lies, misinformation, contamination, PCB pollution and poisoning fish. The water they use and sell is making millions of dollars in profit for them with no benefit coming back to the people of North Carolina.” At the meeting, Dunn recognized several elected officials who spoke against the relicensing of Alcoa, including N.C. Secretary of Commerce Keith Crisco. Dunn also recognized a woman whose husband recently died because of Alcoa, according to the commissioner. Dunn said the woman’s husband died as a result of fish that Alcoa poisoned. Alcoa, a worldwide leading producer and manager of primary aluminum and alumina facilities, is seeking a new 50-year license to oper-
ate the dams on the Yadkin River. The company’s license expired two years ago. Alcoa has been operating under extended licenses while it waits approval on the relicensing from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. “We should not turn over the asset for 50 years,” Crisco said. He added that it is “abundantly clear” that North Carolina should get control over the dams if Alcoa doesn’t get the relicensing. During a conference call with The High Point Enterprise Thursday, Alcoa officials said that they would not send representatives to the public meeting at High Rock Lake. Company spokesman Mike Belwood said Alcoa has been willing to appear at many public forums and has been transparent through the entire licensing process.
“In this particular process, we were not invited,” Belwood said. “It became apparent to us that there wasn’t any interest in a balanced discussion of our license application.” Those who spoke at the meeting brought up the issue of how Alcoa allegedly dried up High Rock Lake several years ago. Predicting the issue would come up at the meeting, Alcoa officials said they have pledged in the relicensing to keep the lake “close to full as possible.” “You might hear some environmental claims,” Belwood said. “… We have been very upfront about our environmental obligation. Whenever a problem has been identified, we have taken steps to address it.”
HIGH POINT – Organizers of the High Point Market say they have secured more commitments for Pre-Market in September, an announcement coming just days before the rival World Market Center in Las Vegas kicks off its second trade show of the year. The High Point Market Authority announced Thursday that three more home furnishings companies have pledged commitments to Pre-Market, which occurs Sept. 1314. The Pre-Market sponsors now total 25.
Lane Home Furnishings will participate at Pre-Market for the first time with new occasional/ entertainment and upholstery introductions, the Market Authority announced. Fine Furniture Design, manufacturers of medium to high-end casegoods and upholstery, also will become a first-time sponsor. Wynwood Furniture, a previous sponsor, has decided to resume its sponsorship and will show its casegoods and upholstery line in September, the Market Authority reports. Pre-Market had been an informal gathering in the home furnishings industry for decades, but in the
past several years market organizers have formalized the event. “The addition of these three industry leaders to the present 22 manufacturing sponsors enhances and further strengthens the breadth of Pre-Market,” said Kevin O’Connor, chairman of the Market Authority board of directors and president and chief executive officer of Samson Marketing. “Our March Pre-Market was the best attended since its ‘rebirth’ in August 2007.” The Pre-Market press release from the Market Authority didn’t make reference to World Market Center and its next trade show,
which takes place Aug. 2-6. The Las Vegas furniture market debuted five years ago as the main rival to the 100-year-old High Point Market, which remains the world’s largest home furnishings trade show. Last year, World Market Center tried going head-to-head against Pre-Market, moving its summer show to September 2009 during the same time as Pre-Market. But after one try at this, World Market Center officials decided later in 2009 to shift their second yearly trade show to August. pjohnson@hpe.com | 888-3528
Businesses back rules allowing A-frame signs BY PAM HAYNES ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
HIGH POINT – The yellow, plastic A-frame signs that business owners recently began setting on sidewalks in front of their shops on N. Main Street have drawn attention from both passersby and city officials. The signs, commonly referred to as sandwich board signs, have become popular in the Uptowne area as a way to advertise daily specials and attract more business, said Kerry Jones, owner of Huffman Paint, who displays one of the signs in front of his store. The idea of using the signs was proposed at a meeting of the Mer-

Thomasville reports wastewater spill totaling 65,975 gallons ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT
AP
Carolina weather Reflections are shown through rain drops clinging to a window following a downpour in Durham this week.
THOMASVILLE – The city of Thomasville has reported a spill of 65,975 gallons of untreated wastewater. According to a city press release, the Tuesday sewer spill came from the East Davidson Pump Station and spilled into South Hamby Creek in the Yadkin/Pee Dee River Basin. Heavy rains that day and evening were the cause of the spill. A total of 1.93 inches of rain was recorded that day at the Thomasville
Water Plant. House Bill 1160, which the General Assembly enacted in July 1999, requires that municipalities, animal operations, industries and others that operate waste handling systems issue news releases when a waste spill of 1,000 gallons or more reaches surface waters. The Division of Water Quality was notified of the event on Wednesday and is reviewing the matter. For further information, contact the city of Thomasville at 475-4220.

School board analyzes character development
Council will consider regulations Aug. 16 FROM PAGE 1
BY DAVID NIVENS ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

GUILFORD COUNTY – Character development programs in the school district will start next month with an emphasis on responsibility. The Board of Education is evaluating a policy that would promote the teaching of seven key elements of good character. In the classroom, the program will emphasize courage, integrity, kindness, perseverance, respect, responsibility and self-discipline. School officials will track student service learning hours to determine eligibility for a service learning award and/or diploma. “Service learning is the keystone of the program to connect students to positive community actions that link to the classroom,” Brenda Elliott-Johnson, executive director for student services, told the Board of Education on Thursday. The classroom emphasis would continue through the year with respect in October, kindness in November-December, courage in January-February, integrity in March, self-discipline in April and perseverance in May-June Studies show that service learning helps reduce dropout rates by encouraging community engage-
Awards: Starting at the beginning of the 2010-2011 school year, students who complete more than 100 hours of service learning activities and/or community service will be eligible to receive the Exemplary Service Learning Award. High School Seniors: Starting at the beginning of the 20112012 school year, students who complete 250 hours of service learning activities and/or community service will be eligible to earn a special Service Learning Diploma and will be eligible to wear a service cord at their high school graduations.
ment, according to experts. By 2014, the district would have a series of character development lesson plans available at all levels, Elliott-Johnson said. Students have already started working on a Habitat for Humanity house and a puppet show at Triangle Lake Elementary School is part of a character development program, she said. The district has formed partnerships with service agencies to show students how to serve their
neighbors. The National Conference for Community and Justice will expand its human relations project to every middle school in the 2010-11 school year with a private donation. “We want to help teachers find outlets for their ideas,” said Hollie Rose, executive director of the Volunteer Center in Greensboro. “We can plug the students into the programs we promote.” The center promotes the “Make A Difference Day” and the “Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Service.” The center coordinates the activities of 200 nonprofit organizations. Character development is part of the district’s Strategic Plan, a 5-year program to guide the district in school reform efforts. The theme of the plan is excellence in all areas, including academics, character development and operations. School board member Paul Daniels said he did not want to make character development a requirement for graduation. “We should explain why service is important,” Daniels said. “What is the absolute? Is this situational morality? It would be the wrong way to go to force people to do this.” dnivens@hpe.com|888-3626

Judge: Saggy pants foolish, but legal NEW YORK (AP) – Wearing saggy pants is not a crime, just foolish. That’s how a New York City judge ruled in throwing out a summons issued to a man wearing low-slung pants that exposed his underwear. Judge Ruben Franco
said that the summons appeared to be an attempt by one police officer to show his displeasure with the style. The Bronx man, Julio Martinez, was issued the ticket on April 20. The judge writes that many may find the lowslung trouser trend
distasteful and foolish. But he says people can dress how they want as long as they do not offend public order and decency. Franco’s decision was issued last month. Martinez and his Legal Aid attorney could not be reached for comment.

ulations so that most signs could still be used under the new rules. Some of the regulations, including one that requires shop owners to provide proof of liability insurance in case the signs cause accidents such as being blown into the street, have caused some concern, however. “If we’re talking about having liability insurance, what kind?” said Telissa Ward, owner of Destiny’s Wardrobe on N. Main Street. “I have some, but there are different types of liability insurance. That could get expensive depending on what type you have to have.” Otherwise, merchants say they’re happy to comply with regulations as long as they’re reasonable. “We totally agree with the safety concerns,” Ward said. “I’m a small business and don’t have a lot of marketing money, so we really want to be able to have that sign out front.” The City Council will consider the regulations at 5:30 p.m. on Aug. 16 in City Hall.

es, shopping and dining,” Jones said. “Most of us (business owners) bought the signs together to have a uniformed look along the street and to do some group advertising. We have people who come in and comment on our sign all the time, so it’s doing its job.” “They get attention from people as they drive by,” added Mehmet Cakal, owner of Sumela Restaurant. “They let people know what kind of food we have.” But there were no regulations in place for such signs when the group bought them in January, meaning they were prohibited by the city. The High Point Planning and Zoning Commission favorably recommended 5-2 an amendment that would allow but regulate usage of the signs at its monthly meeting Tuesday. The amendment regulates the size, placement and times the signs can be used and only allows them along the N. Main Street area.

Body of 2nd Navy sailor recovered in Afghanistan KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) – The discovery of the body of a second U.S. sailor who vanished in Afghanistan last week only deepened the mystery of the men’s disappearance nearly 60 miles from their base in a dangerous area controlled by the Taliban. An investigation is under way, but with both sailors dead, U.S. authorities remained at a loss Thursday to explain what two junior enlisted men in noncombat jobs were doing driving alone in Logar province, where much of the countryside is not under government control. “This is like a puzzle,� said Abdul Wali, deputy head of the governing council in Logar.

otorists: Be careful! In just a little more than two weeks, Guilford Technical Community College and John Wesley College will get the fall 2010 term under way, with High Point University scheduling its first day of classes for Aug. 24, one day before Guilford County Schools begin the 2010-11 term. Aug. 12 is the last day to register for GTCC classes and the fall semester begins Aug. 16. Late registration date for continuing JWC students is Aug. 17 with classes (Session A modules) beginning Aug. 19. Registration at HPU is set for Aug. 23. North College Station, which includes North College Terrace (a three-story apartment complex) and North College Townhomes (which have studio apartments) on what formerly was the Wesleyan Homes and Wesleyan Arms property between Centennial Street and Eastchester Drive, will house some 300 students this fall. Soon that area will be bordered by the same type of brick-pillar-with-wrought-iron fencing that sets off the rest of the HPU campus, which this year will house 3,000 students compared to 2,500 living on campus during the 2009-1010 term. HPU will have 3,300 undergraduate day students this term, a 22 percent increase over the 2009-2010 term. Mighty impressive! The HPU campus, just as the High Point Market district and Piedmont Center have been for years, now ranks as of the you-don’twant-to-miss-it destinations for visitors coming to High Point. Even though HPU provides shuttles to and from the main campus for students housed at both University Village and North College Station, motorists still need to drive with care in the vicinity of HPU, GTCC and JWC and to be especially cautious in public and private school zones. And, please, follow the law when encountering school buses. Here’s a reminder: • Two-lane roadway – When school bus stops for passengers, all traffic from both directions must stop! • Two-lane roadway with center turning lane – When school bus stops for passengers, all traffic from both directions must stop! • Four-lane roadway without median separation – When school bus stops for passengers, all traffic from both directions must stop! • Divided highway of four lanes or more with a median separation – When school bus stops for passengers, only traffic following the bust must stop. • Roadway of four lanes or more with a center turning lane – When school bus stops for passengers, only traffic following the bust must stop. Motorists: Be careful!

Davis steps up; memorial shapes up for Eisenhower
L
ast Sunday afternoon, we attended the appreciation dinner hosted by County Commissioner Bruce Davis, his wife and family members to the volunteers who worked so diligently to get petitions signed in order that Bruce’s name would be on the ballot as an unaffiliated candidate for the N.C. Senate district 28. There are 8,309 signatures that agreed with all of us that Bruce should not be denied his right to run for that seat. This large number signifies to us that he is the People’s Choice. Many of you probably know Bruce is a retired U.S. Marine, and I am glad to see military people deciding to step in the political arena. After all, we spent a lot of time on the battlefield fighting for freedom. The August issue of The American Legion has an outstanding article about President Dwight D. Eisenhower; in the final speech of his presidency he warned the American people to guard against “the acquisition of unwarranted influence whether sought or unsought, by the industrial/military complex.” He had obviously thought long and hard about this warning, because he helped bring the complex into existence. He witnessed first-hand the terrible price our nation paid during WWII, for lack of planning. When we stop and think about where we are right now, in a war that will soon be ongoing for 10 years, I believe we must always have a strong military force. A memorial to Eisenhower is “taking shape” right now in Washington. It is across the street from the National Mall, across Independence Avenue from the National Air and Space Museum. The Dwight
D. Eisenhower Memorial Commission was created by Congress in 1999. You can learn more about his memorial online: @www. eisenhowermemorial.org. In the last few weeks, there have been some VETERAN’S very good articles written about The Korean War. VIEWS The United Nations passed a creased fire resoluStan tion before Christmas, Spangle Sr. 1950, but it was not until ■■■ July 27, 1953, before the shooting stopped. There never was a peace treaty to end the war. Clay Blair’s book “The Forgotten War: America in Korea 1950-1953, calls the war absurd. An estimation of the total casualties was in access of 1.5 million people. If you served there and would like to tell your story, get in touch with me. I would like to talk with you. Congressman Mel Watt, will be meeting with Veterans from 11:30-2:30 p.m. Wednesday at the Transportation Depot located at 236 East Washington Street in Greensboro. This will be an opportunity for veterans to hear about the new legislation on post traumatic stress disorder, caretakers’ aid and assistance, and homeless veterans’ situations. It would be a good idea to write your questions down and take them to the meeting. Please be there if at all possible. God Bless America and all other nations. Semper Fi!

Toyota recalls 412,000 cars in US to fix steering NEW YORK – Toyota is recalling nearly half a million cars, most of them large sedans sold in the U.S., for problems that can cause the steering wheel to lock up. It’s the latest indication that the automaker is still struggling with vehicle problems even as it works to overhaul quality control. The recall, announced Thursday, affects 412,000 vehicles.
Army: Suicide rate reflects risk-taking WASHINGTON – An Army report on the record number of soldier suicides says the trend reflects a rise in risky behavior including drunken driving and drug abuse in a military stretched to the breaking point by the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. The report says the Army is failing its soldiers by missing signs of trouble, or by looking the other way as commanders try to keep to tight schedules required to meet deployment schedules.
Rescuer pulls mom, 2 kids from car in pond RICHFIELD, Minn. – The Minnesota Department of Transportation says a state highway first responder rescued a Twin Cities woman and her two children after the mother drove their car off a highway and into a pond. Don Machacek, arrived at the pond in Richfield, just south of Minnesota, Wednesday afternoon to find the vehicle “nosefirst and sinking.�
New brush fires erupt in LA County SANTA CLARITA, Calif. – New brush fires swept over rural hills in Los Angeles County on Thursday. Good weather to the north aided firefighters building containment lines around two wildfires that destroyed homes in remote mountain communities earlier in the week.

Arizona files appeal as sheriff starts new sweep PHOENIX (AP) – The showdown over Arizona’s immigration law played out in court and on Phoenix’s sun-splashed streets on Thursday, as the state sought to reinstate key parts of the measure and angry protesters chanted that they refused to “live
in fear.� Dozens were arrested. A federal judge’s decision a day earlier to block the strict law’s most controversial elements didn’t dampen the raging immigration debate. The judge has been threatened. Protesters rallied in cit-
ies from Los Angeles to New York. The sheriff of the state’s most populous county vowed to continue targeting illegal immigrants. Lawmakers or candidates in as many as 18 states say they still want to push similar measures.
WASHINGTON (AP) – House investigators accused veteran New York Rep. Charles Rangel of 13 violations of congressional ethics standards on Thursday, throwing a cloud over his fourdecade political career and raising worries for fellow Democrats about the fall elections. The allegations include failure to report rental income from vacation property in the Dominican Republic and hundreds of thousands of dollars in additional income and assets on his financial disclosure statements.
Less oil on Gulf’s surface means less work for fishermen NEW ORLEANS (AP) – Even when the oily sheen starts fading from the surface of the Gulf of Mexico, it manages to become bad news for fishermen. Many of those whose fisheries were shut down by the oil spill have found work skimming oil, putting out boom or ferrying cleanup supplies through BP’s Vessels of Opportunity program. But as the crude sinks, evaporates or breaks down, they may be left with nothing to do but wait
for their claim checks to arrive and for their fishing grounds to reopen. No one knows how much longer BP plans to keep them working, and some fishermen, like Freddy Creppel, have been waiting for weeks to get a call. “It was good work. I was making something,� said the Buras shrimper and fisherman, who joined the program and got 17 days of work using his boat to help guide workers to oiled birds stuck in the slick.

As many as 6,600 Arlington graves mixed up WASHINGTON (AP) – Estimates of the number of graves that might be affected by mix-ups at Arlington National Cemetery grew from hundreds to as many as 6,600 on Thursday, as the cemetery’s former superintendent blamed his staff and a lack of resources for the scandal that forced his ouster. John Metzler, who ran the historic military burial ground for
19 years, said he accepts “full responsibility� for the problems. But he also denied some of the findings by Army investigators and suggested cemetery employees and poor technology were to blame for remains that may have been misidentified or misplaced. He said the system used to track grave sites relied mostly on a complicated paper trail vulnerable to error.
CHICAGO – Jurors in the Rod Blagojevich case are out of sight deciding the fate of the former Illinois governor in a corruption trial that could have been unpleasant for Democrats.

HIGH POINT – One High Point City Councilman’s path to re-election got much easier this week. The sole challenger to Ward 3 Council member Mike Pugh withdrew from the race, meaning the two-term incumbent will keep his seat following the November election. Ronald W. Fowler on Wednesday completed the paperwork to withdraw as a candidate, and his name will not appear on the ballot, according to the Guilford County Board of Elections. A political newcomer, Fowler filed to run for council on July 14. He could not be reached for comment this week. “I was gearing up to run, because you never take anything for
Two-term incumbent Mike Pugh will keep his seat following the November election. granted. I’ve already got signs out and planned on putting more out. It does take a load off you when don’t have to raise money, but I never was a big fund-raiser anyway,” Pugh said. “I count it a privilege to able to serve the people in my ward and the city of High Point as I have for the past five years and give them the service they deserve.” Pugh, a real estate broker with Ed Price & Associates, defeated former Councilman John Linton in 2005 and was unopposed when he stood for re-election in 2008. He cited jobs and the need to keep residents’ tax burdens as low as possible as the top issues in his ward, which covers south High Point. All of the other incumbent council members, as well as Mayor Becky Smothers, face opposition. With Fowler out of the race, there are now 14 challengers running for council seats, and Pugh said he plans to publicly endorse candidates in each ward as well as the at-large council race and the mayor’s race. “In the next election, I hope to see some real changes in city government for the good. I just hope some folks will get elected that would have the same vision,” Pugh said. “There are people I intend to try and help get elected I feel have the same vision and outlook for High Point that I have and have a genuine concern for the people.” pkimbrough@hpe.com | 888-3531

Will wash for food Lexington business hosts Pastor’s Pantry Saturday BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
LEXINGTON – Sam Allen doesn’t mind giving up the majority of a day’s worth of revenue to help a good cause. He has done it for three consecutive years for Pastor’s Pantry in Lexington. “I live in the community, and I am a part of it,” said Allen, owner of Sam’s Car Wash at 300 N. Main Street, Lexington. “It’s a way of giving back.” Sam’s Car Wash will hold its third annual Pack A Pickup food drive to Pastor’s Pantry 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Satur-
day. Allen will provide a free exterior car wash, which is an $8.95 value, for anyone donating 12 or more food items. Donated food will be placed in the bed of a pickup truck that will be driven to Pastor’s Pantry, 307 N. State St., behind Sam’s Car Wash, and will be unloaded and brought back for refilling. According to Bill Keesler, executive director of Pastor’s Pantry, the first Pack A Pickup two years ago brought 2,705 food items. The second Pack A Pickup last year attracted 3,935 food items. Keesler has high hopes to break the
record with more than 4,000 items. “We’ve really worked to get the word out,” Keesler said. “I think we have done a better job of that this year, so I’m really hopeful that not only will we break the 4,000 food item mark, but that we will go way beyond that.” Pastor’s Pantry needs a wide range of nonperishable products. Those items include oatmeal and grits (in boxes of individual serving-size packets), cereal, rice, instant mashed potatoes, stuffing, pasta, canned vegetables, fruits, meats, tuna, peanut butter, jelly, snacks,
toilet paper, soap, and toothbrushes and toothpaste. Keesler said Allen’s food drive provides a boost for the nonprofit food bank, which assists senior adults 60 years old and older in financial need in Davidson County. The shelves at the Pastor’s Pantry are only about two-thirds full, according to Keesler. “Applications fluctuate, but we are starting to see right now an increase in applications,” he said. “For that reason, it comes at a good time, too.” dignasiak@hpe.com | 888-3657

NC man charged after 16 guns found in luggage RALEIGH (AP) – Authorities say a North Carolina man attempted to illegally export 16 guns without getting a license. Court documents unsealed Thursday say Steven Neal Greenoe attempted to travel with the disassembled weapons in checked luggage on a flight Sunday.
Greenoe had tickets from Raleigh Durham International Airport to New York and then to Manchester, England. Investigators said Greenoe has made a series of trips to England this year and a series of gun purchases in North Carolina. Documents show that
he told investigators that he knew he wasn’t supposed to bring the weapons in his luggage but was doing so to outfit employees working on maritime security contracts abroad. Greenoe had a preliminary hearing in Raleigh on Thursday and he was ordered held in custody.

Solitary man reaches out, but is lonely in a crowd
D
ear Abby: I’m a gay 44-year-old man with self-esteem problems. I have never seen myself as worthy of affection, and I don’t consider myself attractive. I have never been in a relationship, and no one outside of my family has ever said “I love you� to me. I have recently tried to come out of my shell. As a result, the network of people I associate with has tripled – and I think that has compounded my problem. Aside from parties where everyone is invited, I never hear from any of these people. I have only a couple of good friends, people I can talk to. I have leaned on my friends to try to help me with my problem. But I’m afraid if I keep unloading on them it’ll wear them down, and I don’t want to burden them. I wish I didn’t feel so worthless. I know part of my problem is the fact that I am unemployed and worried about money. But this is who I have been my whole life. How do I break the cycle and start feeling good about myself? I’m tired of being lonely all the time. – Lonely in Chicago Dear Lonely: One way to stop feeling lonely
is to give yourself less time to feel that way. Because you are unemployed ADVICE and have the time, Dear volunteer Abby some of ■■■it. Find a nonprofit that helps homeless gay youth or senior citizens – or, because the political scene is heating up, the party of your choice. And while you’re at it, contact a gay and lesbian center and ask what kind of counseling services it offers, because your problems predate your unemployment. There is help available in your city. Once you understand why you feel “unworthy of affection� you’ll be able to improve your self-esteem. There are better days ahead. Dear Abby: My office was relocated recently, a bit farther away from home than the old one. My new commute involves riding public transportation and then a shared shuttle van. One of my co-workers, “Phil,� rides the same shuttle. He always waits for me to get off the shuttle so he can walk with me to the office. He
seems nice enough and well- meaning, but my mornings are my time to prepare myself for the day. He also occasionally touches my arm, which makes me uncomfortable. He also talks about personal things I would rather not hear about. I would prefer to walk without him, but there is no other way to get to the office. I have debated being 10 minutes late to work each day, but then I would need to stay 10 minutes later and it would be much harder for me to catch the later shuttle. What do I do? Tell Phil I don’t want to walk with him? Walk faster? Go in later? – Uncomfortable in South San Francisco

Neither your daughter nor your son-in-law faces a threatening future. His illness doesn’t preclude a long, productive and happy life. Ulcerative colitis is an illness where the colon lining is studded with shallow sores, ulcers. Abdominal pain, diarrhea (often bloody), weight loss and sometimes fever are symptoms of this condition when it is active. It isn’t always active. It fluctuates between periods of remission and periods of activity. It also varies in severity. Your daughter’s fiance sounds like he has a mild case. People with severe and unremitting symptoms are quite thin. The cause of ulcerative colitis hasn’t been fully explained. It appears that a genetic predisposition makes people susceptible to an

Penicillin is a narrow spectrum antibiotic. It kills only a few types of bacteria. That’s probably the reason penicillin doesn’t give you a yeast infection. Dear Dr. Donohue: I don’t think my problem will impress you, but here I go. I refuse to wear a bathing suit in the summer because of all the spider veins on my legs, especially in the area of the ankles. How are they gotten rid of? I heard that tea bags work. Do they? – E.L.

I’m not familiar with tea bags for spider veins. Other treatments do work well. Lasers can obliterate them. So can sclerotherapy. A doctor injects these tiny veins with a solution that causes them to wither and dry up. I’m sure you won’t have trouble finding a doctor who does these procedures. If you do have trouble, ask your family doctor for a referral.

No charges for seven Jackson doctors LOS ANGELES – State investigators probing the death of Michael Jackson have decided not to file charges against seven doctors who treated him, authorities said Wednesday. The doctors were part of an investigation by state Attorney General Jerry Brown’s Bureau of Narcotic Enforcement, spokeswoman Christine Gasparac said. One doctor whose name was not released has been referred to the California Medical Board for prescribing drugs to a Jackson alias, she said.

Obama not on list as wedding guest WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama says he didn’t make the guest list for Chelsea Clinton’s weekend wedding.

Obama talks race on ‘The View’ NEW YORK (AP) – President Barack Obama said Thursday that the racial firestorm that led to the ouster of a black Agriculture Department official was a “phony controversy” generated by the media. He said his administration overreacted by forcing her out. In an interview on ABC’s daytime talk show “The View,” Obama said
the forced resignation of Shirley Sherrod shows racial tensions still exist in America. “There are still inequalities out there. There’s still discrimination out there,” Obama said. “But we’ve made progress.” Obama pinned much of the blame for the incident on a media culture that he said seeks out
conflict and doesn’t always get the facts right. But he added, “A lot of people overreacted, including people in my administration.” While acknowledging that the country has gone through a tough stretch since he took office, Obama said he remains optimistic about the direction the U.S. is headed.
MEMPHIS, Tenn. – Former NBA player Lorenzen Wright, whose body was found in the woods outside Memphis, was shot to death and the case is being investigated as a homicide, police said Thursday. Family members had said Wednesday that police told them Wright’s body had been found near an apartment complex. Police delayed confirmation, awaiting an autopsy that confirmed the identity based on dental records, authorities said in a statement. The Shelby County medical examiner’s office reported that Wright died of a gunshot wound, police said. Wright, a 34-year-old Memphis native, was last seen around midnight July 18. His family filed a missing person report with police on July 22,

’I love being able to share my experiences with the students and help them grow musically.’ Megan Crockett Jazz workshop intern people here, and I love being able to share my experiences with the students and help them grow musically.” Crockett is one of seven interns at this year’s workshop, all of whom attended the camp as youngsters and now have returned to help younger musicians. “Last year, when we started

The students and faculty of the John Coltrane Jazz Workshop will perform a concert at 7 tonight in the auditorium at Penn-Griffin School for the Arts, 825 E. Washington Drive. Admission is free. having the interns, it was amazing the difference it made, because you can pull students out of classrooms that maybe need a little bit more one-on-one instruction,” explained Debbie Lumpkins, executive director of the High Point Area Arts Council, which sponsors the workshop in partnership with Guilford County Schools. “Each of the faculty members has an intern now that is there to assist them.” The workshop, now in its ninth year, attracted about 70 young musicians to Penn-Griffin School for the Arts this week, according to Lumpkins. Though they’re not jazz professionals like the workshop’s faculty members, the interns have solid credentials, in addition to having attended the workshop. Crockett, for example, played the sax in concert band and in a saxophone quartet during her freshman year at East Carolina University. Jacob Anflick of Greensboro is a fourth-generation

percussionist – his grandfather was well-known jazz drummer Sammy Anflick – who has taught privately for six years. Saxophonist and flutist Ben Espinola, also of Greensboro, is majoring in music at Guilford College. The interns are realistic role models for the young, impressionable musicians. “They can listen to the faculty play and think, ‘I’ll never be that good,’ so we – the interns – are more of a ‘next step,’” Espinola explained. “They can see themselves doing what we’re doing, which is in a certain way more inspirational than having someone who’s so much better than you that you can’t really fathom what they’re doing.” Anflick, a music education major at Greensboro College, says he tries to make things fun for the students. “A lot of music instructors are so uptight because they want perfection, perfection, perfection, and it’s not always about that,” he said. “It’s about keeping the groove and putting a smile on people’s faces when they listen to the music and enjoy it.” Crockett agreed. “We can help them grow as jazz musicians and at the same time teach them that it’s not all about the structure,” she said. “They can have fun along with the learning.” jtomlin@hpe.com | 888-3579
The Natural Science Center of Greensboro will host its inaugural Wild Watermelon Day on Wednesday from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Visitors will get to sample fresh watermelon provided by The Fresh Market, take part in watermelonthemed crafts, games and face-painting activities, and watch animals in Animal Discovery smash, eat and play with the tasty treat. “Thanks to our generous partner, The Fresh Market, both visitors and animals will have the opportunity to plunge their teeth, fangs and paws into these healthy, sticky treats for a day of unique and juicy animal fun,” said Glenn Dobrogosz, the center’s executive director. “We would like to make Wild Watermelon Day a new, annual tradition.” The Fresh Market will provide 130 fresh watermelons for the event. Wild Watermelon Day activities are included in general admission to the Natural Science Center: $7 children/seniors, $8 adults. Members and children under age 2 are admitted freeof-charge. The rain date for this event will be Thursday.

REMARKS West started to comment, but East didn’t want to listen. He cut in with some remarks about declarer’s luck. East might have listened to what West had to say. East should assume that South’s clubs are Q-x, since East’s play doesn’t matter otherwise. (South wouldn’t lead a club from dummy if he held J-x-x.) So East should put up the ace on the first club and return a spade. The clubs are blocked, and South gets only one club trick and goes down.
CROSSWORD
Friday, July 30, 2010 CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Hilary Swank, 36; Tom Green, 39; Lisa Kudrow, 47; Laurence Fishburne, 49 HAPPY BIRTHDAY: It’s all about learning, experiencing and doing this year. A new way of looking at old ideas and concepts will keep you in the game. Travel will lead to knowledge and experience, furthering your goals. Dealing with friends, neighbors and relatives will be stressful if you don’t learn to say no. Your numbers are 3, 7, 17, 21, 30, 36, 42 ARIES (March 21-April 19): Keep your secrets to yourself. Take on responsibilities so everyone can see you are serious about your work. Socialize in the evening and you will come across someone with an interesting take on the future. ★★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Love and romance are highlighted. Finish your work quickly and prepare to spend time with the one you love. If single, attend events where you can meet people and find love. Short trips will be frustrating due to delays but you will engage in conversations with interesting people. ★★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Just when you think you are home free, you’ll face someone unhappy with the way you have done things. Try to avoid any sort of confrontation. The best alternative is to volunteer to help an organization you believe in. ★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): Don’t let the little things bother you so much and you will discover there is plenty to be thankful for and to enjoy. If you strive to be positive, you will beat the odds and find comfort in your home, family and relationships. ★★★★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You need to get away either mentally or physically. If you can take a mini vacation, do so. If not, lose yourself in a good book or a hobby. A new concept or pastime will introduce you to different philosophies or lifestyles. It’s never too late to make changes. ★★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): This can turn into a fabulous weekend if you put everything aside and focus on your love life. Don’t let financial worries stop you from enjoying the comfort you get from spending time with family. ★★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You’ll be back and forth and back again when it comes to making a personal or professional decision. Before you drive yourself and everyone around you crazy, ask someone you trust for advice. ★★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Put everything aside and focus on love and self-improvement. This is a great time to evaluate your personal life. Once you sort out how you can be more effective as a companion, friend and lover, the other uncertainties will clear up. ★★★★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Keep your emotional feelings out of any conversation you get into, especially if it involves friends, relatives or neighbors. Keep things light and stand true to your promises. Problems while traveling can be expected. ★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Deal with paperwork and personal business involving settlements, legalities, investments or health issues rather than trying to get along with someone looking for a fight. Travel and communication will only lead to frustration and differences. ★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Look back and you will see what needs to be done in the future. Past partners and financial mistakes you have made will come to mind, reminding you not to repeat what you did the last time. A residential move will help you change your life. ★★★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Make a professional move. Interviews, sending out your resume and exploring ways to offer your skills will all bring positive results. A relationship you have with someone will improve if you listen to the ideas, plans and intentions being suggested. ★★★

BRIDGE Rose, my club member whose courtesy toward other players is so admirable, had a spell of tinnitus (ringing in her ears) and saw a doctor. “I need to take care of my ears,” Rose said. “They’ll never get me into trouble.” “It’s usually better to listen than to talk,” I agreed, “but some people feel otherwise.” Rose was declarer at 3NT, and West led a spade. Rose won and led a club from dummy, East played low and Rose’s queen won. Rose played low from dummy on the next club and made two overtricks when the ace fell.
HOROSCOPE
DAILY QUESTION You hold: S 7 5 2 H J 10 8 3 D Q 10 6 3 C A 9. Your partner opens two clubs (strong, artificial), you respond two diamonds (negative or waiting) and he bids three diamonds. What do you say? ANSWER: Your partner promises a powerful unbalanced hand, and since you have diamond support and a side ace, you’ll bid at least a game. Raise to four diamonds to set the trump suit. If partner next cue-bids in a major suit, you’ll cue-bid five clubs to show your ace. South dealer Both sides vulnerable
ONE STAR: It’s best to avoid conflicts; work behind the scenes or read a good book. Two stars: You can accomplish but don’t rely on others for help. Three stars: If you focus, you will reach your goals. Four stars: You can pretty much do as you please, a good time to start new projects. Five stars: Nothing can stop you now. Go for the gold.

A humble start for Clausen SPARTANBURG, S.C. (AP) – If Jimmy Clausen indeed becomes Carolina’s franchise quarterback, it’ll be after overcoming a humble beginning to his professional career. Three months after his draft weekend snub, a nervous Clausen fumbled a couple of snaps early in his first workout of training camp with the Panthers on Thursday, before laboring in the intense heat in his new role: thirdstringer. It was a long way from all the high school hype, the brashness at Notre Dame and the declaration after the Panthers finally ended his two-day draft wait with the 48th selection that his goal was to be the starter from day one. “That’s how you have to think. When you go out to practice you want to do as much as you can to be the starting quarterback,” Clausen said. “At the end of the day, I can control only what I can control and the coaches are going to make the decisions, who’s going to play and who’s not going to play.” It was the typical measured response Clausen has made routine since his first NFL minicamp in April. He’s impressed coaches with his lengthy film sessions and won over many of his teammates with his work ethic. “He’s quiet. He’s kept his mouth shut and has just been working hard,” said left tackle Jordan Gross, who added Clausen sent him a couple of text messages over the summer. “I think that’s the right way to do it as a quarterback or any player. “I think he’s got great potential. I know Matt (Moore) is our starter right now and that’s who I support. But anybody that’s got a Panthers helmet on, I want them to do their best. I’d love for him to succeed beyond anybody’s expectations. That would just make us better.”

enny Hamlin refrains from any bold predictions about picking up another victory at Pocono Raceway. He certainly ranks as the favorite for Sunday’s Red Cross Pennsylvania 500. Hamlin will be gunning for his third straight victory at the triangle-shaped track, where he has picked up four of SPORTS his 13 career wins. He is the defendGreer ing champion in Smith Sunday’s race and ■■■ also won there in June. “It is just way too tough to predict wins in this sport,” Hamlin said. “It’s just too competitive, but I like coming to Pocono and the team always prepares really good cars for this track.” Hamlin’s most recent Pocono victory came during a 10-race stretch in which he scored all five of his victories this season. Since the streak ended at June at Michigan, he hasn’t been much of a factor in finishing 34th, 14th, 24th, eighth and 15th. Even though Hamlin did gain a position in the points to third last week at Indianapolis, the slump has raised questions about whether he will be a factor in the Chase for the Championship, “We are excited to get to Pocono and put last weekend behind us,” Hamlin said. “We are building really good cars

Carolina quarterback Jimmy Clausen (2) prepares to throw a pass during practice at training camp in Spartanbrug, S.C., on Thursday. A day after signing a four-year contract that could be worth up to $6.3 million, Clausen blamed “a little pre-practice jitters” for bobbling a couple of snaps in a walkthrough before Thursday’s first practice.
right now as we look ahead and we are learning a lot. We want to come here, have a good weekend and keep our focus on a championship and Hamlin performing at that level where we can compete each and every week. If that means win here, we’ll take it.”
ROUSH UPDATE Jack Roush was transferred to the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn., on Wednesday and will continue to receive treatment there for the facial injuries he suffered in a plane crash on Tuesday, his Roush-Fenway team said in a statement on Thursday. The team said Roush was still in serious condition. He was moved from a hospital in Neenah, Wis., where he was taken after the crash.
CARAWAY RECAP Jason York and Dan Moore picked up wins in 75-lap races Saturday night at Caraway Speedway, while Travis Swaim kept all of his points lead. York, Swaim and Moore finished 1-2-3 in the first race and Swaim finished fourth with York fifth in the second race won by Moore. The results left Swaim and York earning the same number of points and allowed Swaim to retain a 28-point lead over York going into a 150-lap race Saturday night. York got his victory after first-

ometimes, it’s not how many you win, but where you win that cements your place in sports lore. Take Jamie McMurray. He’s enjoyed a solid, if unspectacular, career on the Cup circuit so far. In eight-plus seasons, he owns five Cup victories – not bad, but hardly amazing. But consider this. Four of his wins came at marquee tracks in big events. McMurray prevailed in the 2002 fall race at Concord in just his second career Cup start. He won the 2007 summer race at Daytona,

finishing Robert Tyler declined to submit his car for inspection following a protest by York and Moore. Harrison Rhodes of High Point was fifth and 10th. Pete Stewart of Sophia was seventh and eighth. Junior Hendrick of Thomasville upped his Limited Late Model lead to 44 points over Noah Triplett. Hendrick was second and Triplett fourth in a race won by Ross Dalton. Dean Lowder of Archdale was third. Scottie York posted his fifth win of the season and upped his Super Mini-Truck lead to 22, points over Glenn Chriscoe, who finished second. Richard Jones upped his U-Car lead to 34 points over Andrew Schill in a race won by Derrick Thomas. On Friday night, Michael Worthington of High Point and Like Demis of Archdale were among the winner. Worthington prevailed in Street Stock. Demis was one of the Legends Car winners. Mack Little prevailed in Sportsman. Daniel Hemric also picked up a Legends Car win. Jimmy Wallace prevailed in Late Model Truck.
BOWMAN GRAY Burt Myers didn’t waver Saturday in his bid for a third Bowman Gray Stadium championship. Myers finished first in the first of two 50-lappers, finished seventh in the second and added six points to his lead over Tim Brown to go up by 61 with four

Brian Loftin is 67 behind Myers with Lee Jeffreys another 16 back. “We want to win the championship,” Myers said. “But the nature of the beast over here is that you’ve got to train yourself not to think about it. You’ve just got to go out, try to do the best you can, and try not to do anything stupid.” Kyle Edwards is 26 ahead of Ryan Robertson in Sportsman. Matt Cotner leads Billy Gregg by 28 in Street Stock as a result of Gregg winning and Cotner finishing second Saturday. Jason Kenton moved into the Stadium Stock lead by two points over Dale Barneycastle as Wayne Hill dripped from the top to a tie for third.

then became only the third driver in history to capture the Daytona 500 and Brickyard 400 in the same season when he turned the trick this year. McMurray is not the only well-known athlete to maximize his victory placement. Michael Waltrip owns four career Cup victories, but two came in the Daytona 500. Waltrip took the checkered flag in the Great American Race in 2001 and 2003. Golfer Andy North won just three pro tournaments on the regular tour, but two were U.S. Opens (1978, ‘85). John Daly may be best known for his battles with his personal
demons, but two of his five top-drawer series professional wins came in majors. Daly captured the 1991 PGA Championship and the 1995 British Open. American skier Bill Johnson managed just three World Cup victories in his career, but one came in the downhill at the 1984 Winter Olympics in Sarajevo. There are plenty of other examples in just about every individual sport. It just goes to show that timing really can be everything.

NFL commissioner Roger Goodell says he decided not to suspend Titans quarterback Vince Young over a tussle at a Dallas strip club in June. Goodell said Thursday that he saw no reason for any disciplinary action over the incident after meeting with Young earlier this week. Goodell spoke while in Green Bay, Wis., for the Packers’ annual shareholder meeting. Goodell says he reminded Young that he’s responsible for his conduct.

SAMMAMISH, Wash. (AP) — The fans following Fred Couples and Tom Watson early Thursday morning were sometimes six- and seven-deep, wedging themselves between tree trunks and ducking under limbs. Very quietly, and without much attention, Bruce Vaughan was the player taking early control of the U.S. Senior Open. Taking advantage of cool morning conditions and mostly avoiding the canopy of trees engulfing Sahalee Country Club, Vaughan opened with a 4-under 66 on Thursday to take a two-stroke lead. The 2008 Senior British Open champion — his only victory on the Champions Tour — made just two bogeys in a steady round, while favorites such as Couples and Watson were far more shaky. Trouble seemed to be the story of the day. Couples, playing in his first U.S. Senior Open, strung together three straight birdies to salvage an even-par round of 70. Loren Roberts and amateur Tim Jackson, the leader a year ago after two rounds, shot 68s. Bernhard Langer, the British Senior Open winner Sunday, and Tom Lehman were another stroke back along with Mark Calcavecchia, Joe Ozaki and Michael Allen. Ozaki hit a tee shot on the par-5 second hole that traveled 50 yards before finding the limbs of a cedar. He still managed par.

MARTINSVILLE, Va. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Zak Wasserman slugged a two-run home run to spark the Thomasville HiToms to a 7-1 Coastal Plain League victory over the Martinsville Mustangs on Friday night. Wasserman finished 2-for-5 for the HiToms, while Cass Hargis went 1-for-3 with an RBI triple, two walks and a run scored. Cody Penny worked four stellar innings of scoreless relief to get the victory. He struck out four, with one hit and no walks. Kylar Spear took the loss, tossing eight innings with six hits, two runs, four walks and a strikeout. The HiToms go for a three-game winning streak when Columbia visits Finch Field tonight.

Orioles hire Showalter Nats take two of three from Braves as manager AP
Nationals right fielder Mike Morse makes a catch along the right-field line on a ball hit by the Bravesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Chipper Jones during the fifth inning of Thursdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s game in Washington.
WASHINGTON â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Scott Olsen returned from the disabled list to win his first appearance in more than two months, Adam Dunn and Ian Desmond each homered and doubled, and the last-place Washington Nationals beat NL East-leading Atlanta 5-3 on Thursday afternoon. Olsen (3-2) gave up three runs â&#x20AC;&#x201C; two earned â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and five hits in six innings before a thunderstorm caused a 11â &#x201E;2-hour delay. The Nationals made room on the roster for the left-hander by putting rookie sensation Stephen Strasburg on the DL for the first time. Backup catcher Wil Nieves bounced a single up the middle off Derek Lowe (10-9) in the fourth inning, breaking a 2-all tie. Washington took two of three from the Braves.
PADRES 3, DODGERS 2 SAN DIEGO â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Oscar Salazarâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pinch-hit single with one out in the ninth inning gave the NL Westleading San Diego Padres to 3-2 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Thursday to take two of three games in the series. The teams will meet again in a four-game series at Dodger Stadium starting Monday night.
Just before the game, the Padres acquired infielder Miguel Tejada and just over $1 million from Baltimore for Class AA right-hander Wynn Pelzer.
Angel Pagan tripled and scored twice for the Mets, who took two of three from St. Louis to drop the Cardinals into second place in the NL Central.
MARLINS 5, GIANTS 0
ROCKIES 9, PIRATES 3
SAN FRANCISCO â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Anibal Sanchez pitched a one-hitter for his first shutout since a no-hitter in September 2006, and Jorge Cantu played his final game for Florida in the Marlinsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; 5-0 victory over the San Francisco Giants. Sanchez (8-6) retired his first 13 batters and matched a career-high with eight strikeouts. The Marlins traded Cantu to AL West-leading Texas. He was replaced on defense by Wes Helms in the bottom of the eighth. Giants rookie Buster Posey had his hitting streak snapped at 21 games, one shy of tying Hall of Famer Willie McCoveyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s San Francisco rookie record, set in 1959. Rookie Madison Bumgarner (43) had a four-start winning streak snapped.
DENVER â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Ubaldo Jimenez rebounded from two rough starts to pitch seven effective innings and the Rockies snapped an eight-game skid. Carlos Gonzalez and Brad Hawpe homered and Clint Barmes had two hits and three RBIs for the Rockies, who had dropped 11 of 13. Jimenez (16-2) returned to the form that earned him a start in the AllStar game. He allowed one run and four hits, struck out six and walked three. Jimenez moved within a victory of tying the franchise record for wins held by three pitchers.
METS 4, CARDINALS 0 NEW YORK â&#x20AC;&#x201C; R.A. Dickey took a three-hitter into the ninth inning and Ike Davis hit a three-run homer, leading the Mets to its first series victory in more than a month.
RAYS 4, TIGERS 2 ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; David Price became the ALâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first 14-game winner, Carlos Pena had four RBIs and Tampa Bay beat Detroit 4-2 on Thursday to complete a four-game sweep. Price (14-5) allowed two runs and seven hits in 61â &#x201E;3 innings, tying the team record for wins in a season. He struck out nine and walked two.
Oswalt traded to Phillies; Tejada, Cantu also move THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Still throwing hard at 32, Oswalt was 6-12 despite a 3.24 ERA for the foundering Astros. He asked for a trade earlier in the season and the St. Louis Cardinals were among the teams that were interested. Oswalt The Phillies took a sevengame winning streak into Thursday nightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s game against Arizona. They began the day 31â &#x201E;2 games behind Atlanta in the NL East. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re still in first place right now, but weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got a long way to go,â&#x20AC;? Braves pitcher Derek Lowe said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re definitely a better team with him, no doubt about it.â&#x20AC;? The NL West-leading San Diego Padres acquired infielder Miguel Tejada from Baltimore for a Double-A pitcher. At 36, the former AL MVP was hitting .269 with seven homers and 39 RBIs for the last-place Orioles, who earlier in the day hired Buck
Roy Oswalt granted his own wish: Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s now part of a pennant race. Miguel Tejada and Jorge Cantu joined the mix, too. The trade wheel of fortune kept spinning Thursday with veterans-for-prospects deals that typically dot the stretch run. More swaps were expected before Saturdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 4 p.m. deadline as pitchers Ted Lilly and Jake Westbook could go. The Philadelphia Phillies made the boldest move, getting Oswalt and about $11 million from the Houston Astros for pitcher J.A. Happ and two speedy minor leaguers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m excited,â&#x20AC;? Phillies ace Roy Halladay said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It says a lot that this team is dedicated to winning.â&#x20AC;? Oswalt agreed to waive his no-trade clause and approved the deal to the two-time defending NL champions. The three-time AllStar is set to start tonight at Washington.
â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re taking every precaution with me, obviously,â&#x20AC;? Strasburg said. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the first trip to the DL for Strasburg, who was the No. 1 overall pick in the 2009 amateur draft and signed a record $15.1 million contract. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 90 percent healthy, we

Tejada added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think we can have a chance to win.â&#x20AC;? The AL West-leading Rangers added another bat for the playoff push, acquiring Cantu from the Florida Marlins for two minor league pitchers. Cantu had two singles, scored twice and made an error in the Marlinsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; 5-0 win at San Francisco before being replaced on defense in the bottom of the eighth. Cantu is set to meet the team in Anaheim this morning. He hit .262 with 10 home runs and 54 RBIs for Florida.
Strasburg heads to 15-day disabled list WASHINGTON (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Rookie right-hander Stephen Strasburg went on the 15-day disabled list Thursday with inflammation in his throwing shoulder, the latest indication of how careful the Washington Nationals are being with their prized pitcher.

Baltimore went 16-31 with him in charge. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been a good experience,â&#x20AC;? Samuel said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;These guys played for me hard. I know the record doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t reflect that, but I thank the guys for that.â&#x20AC;? The rest of the Oriolesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; coaching staff will stay intact. Gary Allenson, the interim third-base coach, will resume his spot as manager at Triple-A Norfolk. Showalter is a twotime AL Manager of the Year, winning the award in 1994 with the Yankees and 2004 with Texas. Showalterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s last year as a manager was 2006 with the Rangers. His overall record is 882-833 in 11 years.
BALTIMORE (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Buck Showalter was hired to manage the Baltimore Orioles on Thursday, his latest rebuilding project in a major league career full of them. Showalterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first game will be Tuesday night at Camden Yards against the Los Angeles Angels. Baltimore had the worst record in the majors at 31-70 going into Thursday night against Kansas City and is headed toward its 13th straight losing season. The Orioles fired manager Dave Trembley on June 4 and replaced him on an interim basis with Juan Samuel. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Buck Showalterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s proven track record makes him the right choice for manager of the Orioles,â&#x20AC;? president of baseball operations Andy MacPhail said in a statement. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We believe Buckâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s extensive experience and expertise will
shut him down,â&#x20AC;? Washington manager Jim Riggleman said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s got to be 100 percent.â&#x20AC;? Riggleman said the team expects Strasburg to pitch again for them this season. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s possible he could begin his road back by playing catch Saturday.

Fast start keys Weaverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s round of 68 ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT
WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, W.Va. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; High Pointâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Drew Weaver rode a fast start to a solid first-round 68 at The Greenbrier Classic on Thursday. Weaver, who teed off at No. 10 at 9 a.m., birdied three of his first five holes and stood 4-under after a birdie-3 at No. 1. He backed up a bit with bogey-5s on Nos. 5 and 6, but still posted a strong 2-under-par round at the Old White Course. Weaver currently shares 38th, five strokes off the pace set by Erik Compton and Matt Every, who fired 7-under 63s on Thursday.
Weaver, the former High Point Central and Virginia Tech star, is playing this event on a sponsorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s exemption. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was a good day,â&#x20AC;? Weaver said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My ball-striking was solid and I put myself in a lot of good positions on the greens. You can always look back and say it could Weaver have been a little better, but all in all, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m pleased with how the first round went.â&#x20AC;? Weaver sank an 8-footer for birdie on No. 10 (his first hole of the day), then made a 4-footer for birdie on No. 12, a 5-footer on No. 14, a 4-footer for birdie on No. 17 and a 25-footer for birdie on No. 1 to get to 4-under.
Inclement weather delayed the first round for an hour and 33 minutes, but that came after Weaver had completed his opening 18 holes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The wind was gusting and swirling and that made club selection difficult,â&#x20AC;? Weaver pointed out. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But it was good to complete the round instead of having to wait out a weather delay. This way I can get plenty of rest before my afternoon tee time (in round two).â&#x20AC;? Weaver tees off at 2 p.m. today in round two. He will be part of the final group of the day. The Golf Channel provides live second-round coverage today from 3-6 p.m., so Weaver could figure prominently in that coverage with a strong second 18 holes.
Womble captures Carolinas Junior SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE
ELGIN â&#x20AC;&#x201C; High Pointâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Davis Womble could not be stopped at the 61st Carolinas Junior Championship on Thursday. Womble cruised to a three-stroke victory at 11-under-par 205 at the Members Club at Woodcreek Farms. Womble, a rising junior at Wesleyan Christian Academy, finished with rounds of 70, 64 and 71 to take the crown over four players at 209 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Victor Wiggins, Will Starke, Trevor Cone and Cody Proveaux.
The field battled sizzling temperatures all three rounds, but that did not slow down Womble, whose 8-under 64 in round two set the stage for victory. High Pointâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Thomas Walsh tied for 16th in the 14-15 age division and was tied for 72nd overall at 77-78â&#x20AC;&#x201C;158 for his two rounds of action. Other champions were Charlotteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Grant Smith in boys 11-under play, Trace Crowe of Easley, S.C. in boys 1213 and Wiggins in boys 14-15.

Beason starts camp in new spot THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SPARTANBURG, S.C. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Jon Beason made the Pro Bowl the last two seasons as a middle linebacker. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a good chance heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll start this season in a new position. The Carolina Panthers opened training camp Thursday with Beason at weakside linebacker in a revamped lineup following Thomas Davisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; season-ending knee injury last month. While not complaining, it was apparent Beason isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t crazy about the shuffle after recording a team-record 169 tackles in 2009. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The only reason Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d prefer to be in the middle is because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something I have done, and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve done it at a high level,â&#x20AC;? Beason said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I do have that comfort zone. but if it can help the team out, I want to do it. If Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to go play running back, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll do it.â&#x20AC;? Davisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; second torn anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee in less than a year left the Panthers without their speediest linebacker, who was perhaps having his own Pro Bowl season before first being injured in November. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thomas is faster than me. Thomas can jump higher than me. Thomas is a better cover guy than me. Thomas hits really hard. He can do it all,â&#x20AC;? Beason said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the prototype (weakside) linebacker you want in this scheme.â&#x20AC;?
For now, the Panthers have moved Dan Connor to Beasonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s old spot. James Anderson is playing strongside linebacker after Naâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;il Diggs was let go in the offseason. The other option for Carolina is to insert newly acquired Jamar Williams at weakside linebacker and keep Beason in the middle. Williams was working with the second unit Thursday morning when he appeared to tweak his hamstring.
FIRST-DAY INJURIES The tent in the middle of the three practice fields at Wofford College quickly filled up with casualties on Thursday. Williams and defensive end Charles Johnson were both banged up early in the workout, but clearly the most bizarre injury occurred to linebacker Sean Ware. The undrafted rookie from New Hampshire had an allergic reaction to a bee sting and was taken inside. They were joined by six players who flunked their physicals for various reasons a day earlier: receiver Steve Smith (arm), running back Jonathan Stewart (ankle), right tackle Jeff Otah (knee), defensive tackle Louis Leonard (knee), guard Duke Robinson (conditioning) and Davis. Robinson, who was doing conditioning drills on an adjacent field, severely hurt his chances for the
open right guard spot. Mackenzy Bernadeau worked with the starters there. Geoff Schwartz was in Otahâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s spot.
LINING UP There were few surprises when the Panthers showed their current starting units during the morning workout in full pads. Johnson started at defensive end in Julius Peppersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; old spot until he was banged up. Everette Brown then slide into that position. The Panthers rotated defensive tackles, including Tank Tyler, Ed Johnson and Nick Hayden. With Smith out for several weeks as he recovers from a broken forearm, Dwayne Jarrett and Kenny Moore worked as the first-team receivers. But Jarrett didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get off to a great start, catching heat from the coaching staff when he appeared to run the wrong route during a drill.
EXTRA POINTS Rookie Armanti Edwards, who worked mostly with the third team at receiver, had some difficulty fielding punts near the end of the first workout as he makes the transition from college quarterback. Captain Munnerlyn and Brian Witherspoon also fielded punts. ... CB Chris Gamble had the first interception of camp.
Tebow, Broncos agree to contract ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Tim Tebow missed some practices but none that counted before agreeing to a contract with the Denver Broncos on Thursday. The two-time national champion from Florida and 25th pick in the NFL draft missed the first three workouts for rookies and selected veterans while his agent, Jimmy Sexton, and general manager Brian Xanders hammered out a deal believed to be worth about $11 million over five years with more than
$8 million of that guaranteed. ESPN reported that Tebow could earn as much as $33 million over the course of the contract. Tebow is expected to practice Friday morning, the final session before training camp begins in earnest Sunday with a full squad in full pads. The signing of Tebow leaves top pick Demaryius Thomas, a wide receiver out of Georgia Tech, as the only unsigned member of Denverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s draft class.
Thomas was selected three spots before Tebow, the most intriguing pro prospect since Michael Vick. The Broncos announced Tebowâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s signing after workouts Thursday and coach Josh McDaniels wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t available for comment. The team is using four practices this week to give rookies, selected veterans and players coming off injuries a head-start on the playbook and practice plans â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and also to get the jitters out before camp starts this weekend.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Three days after the smallest-attended NASCAR Brickyard 400 in the raceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 17 years, Indianapolis Motor Speedway announced a reduction in race day prices and a new two-tiered ticket program. Prices will be cut $20 in the lower rows of the Southeast and Southwest Vista, Northeast Vista and H Stand grandstands. Those prices will range from $50 to $65. General admission tickets, which were $40 this year, will be available for $30 in advance and $35 on race day. Select premium seats will cost slightly more next year. An estimated 140,000 fans â&#x20AC;&#x201C; about 40,000 fewer than 2009 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; saw Jamie McMurray win Sundayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Sprint Cup Series race. The â&#x20AC;&#x2122;09 race marked the first time the crowd was less than 200,000.

GOP blocks business bill
WASHINGTON (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Senate Republicans blocked a bill to increase small business lending Thursday, dealing a setback to President Barack Obamaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s jobs agenda. The bill would create a $30 billion government fund to help community banks increase lending to small businesses, combining it with about $12 billion in tax breaks aimed at small businesses. Democrats say banks should be able to use the lending fund to leverage up to $300 billion in loans to small businesses, helping to loosen tight credit markets. The fund would be available only to banks with less than $10 billion

Fed official touts crisis-era program WASHINGTON (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A Federal Reserve official says the central bank should revive a crisis-era program to buy government debt if the country seems headed toward a bout with deflation. James Bullard, president of the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis, makes the case in comments to reporters and in a paper released Thursday. The weak economy poses the risk that the United States could tip into a Japanese-like bout of deflation, he says. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a widespread and prolonged drop in prices of goods, values of homes and stocks, and in wages.
Oil prices rise on improving economy NEW YORK (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Oil prices rose Thursday as betterthan-expected earnings from ExxonMobil Corp., Southwest Airlines Co. and others bolstered hope for an improving economy. Benchmark crude for September delivery rose $1.07 to $78.06 a barrel in midday trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange.
Exxon earnings more than double NEW YORK (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Exxon Mobil Corp. said Thursday its second quarter income nearly doubled to $7.56 billion as oil prices increased from last year. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Exxonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s highest quarterly profit since the $7.82 billion earned in the last three months of 2008.
in assets. Some Republicans, however, likened it to the unpopular bailout of the financial industry. Senate leaders said they will continue to negotiate amendments to the bill. But Thursdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vote will make it difficult for Congress to pass it before lawmakers go on summer vacation. The Senate is in session for another week; the House is scheduled to adjourn Friday. Congressional Democrats started the year with ambitious plans to pass a series of bills designed to create jobs. But if negotiations on the small business lending bill fail, they will have little to show for it just a few months before midterm
elections that will determine whether Democrats keep their majorities in the House and Senate. Congress has extended unemployment benefits for people who have been out of work for long stretches and passed a measure that gives tax breaks to businesses that hire unemployed workers. But many other initiatives stalled, in part because of concerns they would add to the growing national debt. Obama lobbied for the small business lending bill during a trip Wednesday to Edison, N.J. But Senate Democrats fell short of the necessary 60 votes Thursday to end a Republican filibuster.
Initial jobless claims drop WASHINGTON (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; New jobless claims fell last week for the third time in four weeks but remain elevated. The decline is a sign that the economy likely added jobs in July, although not enough to lower the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s high unemployment rate. First-time claims for unemployment insurance dropped by 11,000 to a seasonally adjusted 457,000, the Labor Department said Thursday. Claims have fluctuated this month because of temporary seasonal factors. General Motors and other manufacturers skipped their traditional summer shutdowns, which led to fewer layoffs and unemployment claims. But the impact of that distortion has largely faded from the data, a Labor Department analyst said. The four-week average of claims, which smooths fluctuations, dropped to 452,500, the lowest level since May. That suggests layoffs may be easing. And the four-week average is slightly below its level in
June, which indicates that private employers likely added about the same number of jobs in July as they did last month. The Labor Department will issue its July employment report next week. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The rate of jobless claims is consistent with some growth in total employment,â&#x20AC;? said Zach Pandl, an economist at Nomura Securities. Pandl forecasts that businesses added about 85,000 jobs in July â&#x20AC;&#x201D; about the same as in June but not enough to reduce the unemployment rate, currently at 9.5 percent. Many large companies such as Caterpillar Inc., Dupont Co. and Microsoft Corp. have reported strong second-quarter earnings in the past two weeks. While some of those companies have added a few jobs, their growth hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t translated into widespread hiring. Requests for unemployment insurance fell steadily last year from their peak of 651,000, reached in March 2009. But they have remained stuck above 450,000 for most of this year.

Stocks fall amid uncertainty NEW YORK (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Stocks ended an erratic day with a modest loss Thursday as investors tried to reconcile another batch of conflicting economic signals. The Dow Jones industrial average closed down 30 points after falling as much as 110 and rising 87 during the course of the day. The other big market indexes also closed slightly lower. Thursdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s trading fit with the marketâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s monthslong pattern. Investors are torn between upbeat earnings news from companies and reports that point to an uncertain recovery. That indecision was clear as stocks rose on strong earnings at Southwest Airlines Co., ExxonMobil Corp. and other companies, then fell on disappointment over a slight drop in first-time claims for unemployment benefits. Traders were also uneasy ahead of the first reading on U.S. gross domestic product for the April-June quarter, to be released Friday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a market that is trying to ascertain how deep the downturn is going to be and it is a market thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s future-looking,â&#x20AC;? said Quincy Krosby, a market strategist with Prudential Financial. The Dow fell 30.72, or 0.3 percent, to 10,467.16. Although the Dow has fallen 70 points over the past two days, it is up 7.1 percent for July with one trading day to go. The Standard & Poorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 500 index fell 4.60, or 0.4 percent, to 1,101.53.
