New Davidson DSS chief: Promotion is ‘bittersweet’

BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

DAVIDSON COUNTY – Dale Moorefield says he’s grateful for the promotion to director of the Davidson County Department of Social Services, but acknowledges the move is not happening in the way he envisioned.

Moorefield, who has been serving as interim director for the past three months, was named this week the new director of the Davidson County Department of Social Services. He replaces Keith Moorefield Johnson who died in May after losing a bout with cancer.

“When he hired me back in 2007, it was kind of the idea for me as deputy director to kind of get ready to be the director,” Moorefield said. “We never thought that anything like this was going to happen.

It’s kind of bittersweet in that regard because we were crazy about Keith.

We loved him. But with things like they are now, I’m excited for the opportunity to be able to step in and hopefully continue the good things we are doing and have been doing.”

Moorefield has about 20 years of experience in so-

Questions linger on amount of spill Before you read...

THOMASVILLE – Thomasville officials have searched endlessly to find out the true amount of last summer’s sewer spill – an amount that could be North Carolina’s largest sewer spill in the last decade.

“That’s the question we have pondered from this entire event,” said Thomasville City Manager Kelly Craver, as he stood at the site of last year’s spill. “We have all been educated in environmental science to expect a dynamic result from a spill anywhere approaching that magnitude. In my career, I have seen dead fish in creeks in many different places due to many different factors in

that the ecosystem itself is relatively fragile.

“To imagine a spill of this magniTHOMASVILLE tude ... you would SEWER SPILL just expect a terrible ecological disaster, One year later and, conversely, we had nothing.”

■■■ The spill, which began July 13 and ended Aug. 4, 2009, came from the North Hamby Creek outfall line near Baptist Children’s Home Road, and sewage spilled into the North Hamby Creek and in the Yadkin/Pee Dee River Basin, which flows into High Rock Lake.

The spill initially was reported to the state by the city on Aug. 4 as 385,000 gallons, but the EPA made Thomasville employees recalculate the amount last September following a tip from Yadkin Riverkeeper Dean Naujoks. After the EPA made Thomasville officials recalculate the spill, the city re-

ported to the N.C. Division of Water Quality that 15.93 million gallons of raw sewage entered Hamby Creek in July and August of 2009.

The Associated Press reported that state records on spills date only to 1998 and show the previous largest spill was 9 million gallons in December 2002 in Raleigh.

Morgan Huffman, the city’s public services director, and Craver recently toured the site of last summer’s sewer spill. Both said there was no environmental impact from the spill. As Craver put it, “not a dead fish” “I’ve gone out with folks from

the N.C. Department of Environment and Natural Resources,” Huffman said. “They took samples from the sediment in the creek. They could find nothing.”

“When they initially came out, there was vegetation, grass did come out, a path had been cut and the grass was pushed toward the creek,” Huffman said, as he pointed to an unnamed stream that flows into Hamby Creek.

“Even with what they described to me, it didn’t sound like it could be anywhere close to the volume of the spill that was alleged.”

A study by a third-party environmental firm, Brown and Caldwell Environmental Engineers and Consultants, states that “insufficient data exist to quantify the duration and volume” of the wastewater spill with certainty. Brown and Caldwell, however, did estimate the spill to be about 4.6 million gallons. dignasiak@hpe.com | 888-3657

In this June 9 photo, organic farmer Bill Dow peers at his crops on his farm near Pittsboro. In the rolling-hill country between Pittsboro and Siler City, Dow’s farm has fresh crops of cucumbers, peppers, basil, parsley and blueberries just coming in.

Going organic Bill Dow’s farm near Pittsboro was NC’s first in many innovative approaches PITTSBORO (AP) – In the rolling-hill country between Pittsboro and Siler City, Bill Dow’s farm has fresh crops of cucumbers, peppers, basil, parsley and blueberries just coming in.

Just up the rocky road leading into his place, there’s another farm where a fresh crop is coming in: houses. From Orange County to the north and from Wake County to the east, the development pressure is on in Chatham.

Not at Bill Dow’s place, though. His was North Carolina’s first farm to be certified organic. He was Chatham County’s first farmer to make a business of selling directly to restaurants.

Now he’s the Triangle’s first small organic farmer to put land under a conservation easement in perpetuity.

“That’s going to have a real big impact,” in keeping agriculture alive in Chatham County, said extension agent Debbie Roos.

“I don’t know, it just seemed like the right thing to do,” Dow said.

Dow, a retired physician, owns 30 acres, a couple of miles from U.S. 64 with woods enclosing the three acres he cultivates spring, summer and fall.

“It’s all I can do, with good help,” he said. The amount of help varies depending on what needs doing, he

said. One recent afternoon Dow had five pairs of helping hands at work – one hoeing weeds, two tying squash vines and two setting posts for cucumber trellises. The numbers vary depending on what’s to be done, he said.

ATTACHED TO THE LAND Twenty-two of his acres are under the conservation easement, he said.

Besides preserving the property undivided and undeveloped, the easement creates a permanent buffer along a creek.

“I didn’t want somebody coming in here and cutting it up,” Dow said.

“You get attached to a place and you just don’t do that. I don’t do it.”

Dow grew up on a cattle and soybean farm in Mississippi. “Dad was a believer in the chemicals,” he said, but young Bill – unlike his farmer brothers – developed a distaste for the herbicides and fertilizers that go on conventional fields. At Vanderbilt medical school, he organized a students’ health organization that spun off agricultural marketing projects in five southern states.

He ended up in North Carolina via “a long, circuitous” route – “It would make a good novel,” he said – and bought a country place where he could take up gardening. Organi-

cally. This was in 1981, and Dow didn’t get a lot of local encouragement for going green; but he stuck with the notion because of his “cussedness” and conviction.

“Part of it was the challenge and part, I thought it was important.

From a medical standpoint, you are what you eat, as they say,” he said. “Part of it was, just the boys at home: ‘I’ll show you.’ There’s a certain amount of competition.”

‘IT’S GOT ME’ It was about 10 years ago that Dow metamorphosed from gardener to farmer.

“It’s not something you plan or anything else,” he said. “You just wake up one day and realize, ‘It’s got me.’ ... We’re not just playing games here.”

Broccoli was his first cash crop, but although it grew well in his soil, one crop wasn’t going to earn a living for a small farmer. That takes an appreciation for economics.

“What you’ve got to look at on this size farm is, not how many acres have I got but how much am I making per acre? I can grow broccoli like this and sell it for a good price, but in that same amount of space there’s other crops I can grow and make a lot more.”

HIGH POINT – A major breakthrough for cancer survivors was tested in a clinical trial at High Point Regional Health System and throughout the nation.

Yoga for Cancer Survivors studied whether or not participating in yoga could help improve the lives of cancer survivors. The results, which were presented at the 2010 American Society of Clinical Oncology meeting, showed yoga reduces fatigue and improves sleep and quality of life for cancer patients.

Nationally, 410 patients participated in the trial, with 22 patients from the Charles E. and Pauline Lewis Hayworth Cancer Center at High Point Regional.

Two of the most common problems cancer survivors face are sleep and fatigue, and both impact the survivors’ quality of life.

The study participants were primarily female, with an average age of 54, who reported sleep and fatigue problems after completing chemotherapy, radiation and/or surgical treatment for early-stage cancer. While enrolled in the study, participants’ sleep quality improved 22 percent, their fatigue was reduced by 42 percent and they saw an average 6 percent improvement in

overall quality of life. The study group also reduced the use of sleep medication by 21 percent.

The study randomized patients, with half of them receiving yoga-based treatment plus standard care and the other half receiving just standard care without the yoga.

Dr. George Sanders of Emerywood Hematology/ Oncology, who served as the study’s principle investigator at High Point Regional, said the people who were getting yoga obviously did better and felt better.

“I believe in yoga now, and I didn’t necessarily believe in it before this study,” he said. “I’d rather have my patients do yoga for their sleep problems than take another pill. I’ll recommend it to my patients.”

High Point Regional added a second yoga class in July.

Janet Forrest, oncology program planning liaison at High Point Regional, said this is a great way to show that clinical trials can be beneficial.

“This is an excellent example of what happens when people enroll in clinical trials,” Forrest said. “Not only do they often see a direct benefit personally, they also get to play a role in discoveries that can benefit thousands of other patients.”

HP officers are sensitive in cases involving dogs EDITOR’S NOTE: The following e-mail was sent by High Point Police Capt. Cherie Maness to Chief Jim Fealy Friday in response to an incident described in a letter printed in Your View on Thursday. Fealy asked if the Enterprise would publish this e-mail, saying Maness “has captured the spirit of what I would want to say to those who may feel that our officers do not feel or display compassion.” Following, is the full text of that e-mail. The Enterprise waives its 300-word limit on letters for this.

From: CHERIE MANESS Sent: Friday, August 06, 2010 11:29 AM To: JIM FEALY Subject: Dogs Chief: I know you are answering uncomfortable questions about yesterday’s letter to the editor involving one of my officers on the animal-related call. There is no doubt whatsoever that the officer should have not have been so blunt in his explanation, especially in front of children. He certainly should have chosen his words more carefully.

What crosses my mind is how some citizens might rush to judgment and view this incident as our “M.O.” for handling animal calls, especially in light of past scrutiny. I think HPPD has been unfairly cast in a negative perception that we are still trying to overcome. It would be nice for the public to know that most of the time we “do it right,” as you and I both know.

A recent example comes to mind: when the gentleman drowned at Oak Hollow Lake this week, his dog escaped the boat and was able to swim to shore. He ran all over Festival Park and no one was able to capture him since he was so skittish and FAST! Eventually he was forgotten as rescue workers focused on locating the missing victim. Once we began to realize this would be a recovery and not a rescue effort, catching the dog became more important to us as we knew he would have meaning to the family. It would have been very difficult to inform them the dog had escaped, or worse yet been hit by a car on Eastchester Drive.

We resumed efforts to contain him, but he was very elusive.

Three police officers and several other rescue workers chased the dog in 90-plus degree heat. Even though he bit one of my officers (did not break skin), the officer

continued to assist with cornering the dog. Finally, after everyone was exhausted including the dog, he ran into the arms of a helper and was then placed in the back of an air-conditioned patrol car with a bowl of water. He napped comfortably until he was reunited with the family. I did not talk to them after we cleared the call, but I expect they were most appreciative to have their loved one’s favorite pet returned to them. I would think this would offer some solace in their time of grief, and I am grateful we made the extra effort for them.

While I agree the letter writer has some valid points, I also want to remind folks that most of the time we get these things right. I hate for this negative interaction to overshadow the excellent work our officers do on a daily basis.

Cherie

Ground zero mosque is insult to those who died The is probably the first opinion letter I have written in anger (we will see if The Enterprise will print my letter as I write it), but a New York City panel has cleared the way for construction near ground zero of a mosque to be built; this enrages me. This is not a religious issue; this is an insult to the Americans who died on Sept. 11, 2001 (and their families) by the hands of terrorists who staged attacks on American soil.

One source said: This particular mosque is called the “Cordoba Mosque, it’s about it being at ground zero; it’s about it being spearheaded by an imam who has associated himself with radical Islamic causes and has made comments that should chill every single American.”

This action should outrage every American – Republican, Democrat, independent or nonregistered. Where have we let our country be led? We have a president who campaigns the majority of his time; he does not run this country on a daily basis, and when he and his minions are making decisions, the decisions are to the detriment of the majority of the people. I am not talking any particular party; I am looking at where we were 1.5 years ago and where we are now.

Wake Up! Fourteen percent voted in the last primary. Many

are waiting for someone else to correct the problem; that’s not going to happen. Everyone needs to vote in every election or we will soon loose our freedoms. We, the people, must save our country while we still have our country to save! November is coming fast.

Plan to vote and take everyone you can with you! Do not listen to what he says – look at what he has done! Good words … bad fruit!

Tougher policies, enforcement slow illegal logging

BY ANNE MIDDLETON

D

espite recent reductions in illegal logging, more work is needed to ensure that forests worldwide are harvested legally and sustainably.

A recently published study has revealed a significant reduction in illegal logging. Despite the good news, illegal logging remains an endemic global problem, and much more needs to be done by lawmakers and those involved within the timber trade to further the progress achieved.

According to the new study, published by the London-based think tank Chatham House, worldwide illegal logging declined as much as 25 percent over the past decade, with reductions as high as 50 percent to 75 percent in key producer countries. The report emphasized the role that recently passed legislation such as the U.S. Lacey Act amendments and the European Union’s new prohibition on the import of illegal wood play in motivating importers of wood to ensure their product comes from viable sources.

Coupled with the efforts of consumer countries, enforcement actions in producer countries such as Indonesia and Brazil are increasingly helping to reduce the prevalence of illegal practices in some of the world’s most threatened forests.

Alexander von Bismarck, executive director of the Environmental Investigation Agency, commended the report’s authors for their thorough research

and credible results. “Our field investigations have consistently revealed that illegal loggers are encouraged by importers who fail to ask tough questions about the source of their material. This study shows that practices can change quickly when buyers are held responsible for the legality of the wood they purchase,” said von Bismarck.

However, while there is legitimate cause for optimism in the report’s findings, they need to be taken with a grain of salt. The recent decline in illegal logging could be due to the global economic downturn of the past few years. Rates of illegal logging are also inherently difficult to measure accurately, due to their illicit and under-the-table nature.

In the U.S., the Lacey Act amendments are steps in the right direction, but there is significant room for improvement in implementing and enforcing the law. For example, only a small subset of furniture products require an accompanying declaration on import of the country of harvest and the wood species name, a critical measure intended by congress to create transparency in a previously unregulated market. Now, only “seats with wooden frames” require declarations. Environmental groups are hopeful that all furniture will require declarations in coming years.

The furniture industry, as a significant importer of internationally harvested wood, plays an influential role in helping to create legitimate and sustainable supply chains. The ongoing efforts by lawmakers, as well as a change in practices by industries involved in the timber trade, are essential to an effective combating of the trade in illegally sourced wood.

This is for Willy Brown and tomorrow’s victims

T

his is a requiem for Willy Brown.

As these words are written, he lies brain dead and on life support at Miami Children’s Hospital. By the time you read this, there’s a good chance he will have been disconnected and declared dead. He is, or he was, two years old. His father, 23-yearold Lee Willie DeJesus of Homestead, Fla., is in jail, having been denied bond. Prosecutors expect to charge him with first degree murder.

According to a confession police say DeJesus supplied, here is what happened: Monday night while the child’s mother was at work and he was supposed to be babysitting, DeJesus strapped on a pair of boxing gloves and took aim at his son. He hit him. And hit him. And hit him. And hit him. And hit him.

And hit him. Up to 15 times over 15 minutes about the head, face and torso, including one punch that knocked the little boy off the bed, causing him to strike his head on the floor. DeJesus told police he was trying to teach his son to box.

This is a requiem for intelli-

gence. You know, common sense, basic brain function. When a man thinks a 2-year-old is ready to learn the manly arts of self-defense and OPINION proceeds to teach them by beating Leonard the stuffing out of Pitts him, is that not a ■■■ sign that the last flickering candle of cognition has been well and truly snuffed? Is it not a signal that plodding, atavistic stupidity has finally seized the day, planted its flag, ascended the throne.

So yes, this is a requiem for common sense. It is also a requiem for idealized memory.

Meaning the communal recollection of fatherhood as the province of strong and tender men who laid down the law and told their stories of walking to school through mountains of snow, who gave you their shoulders as a perch, their truths as a guide, who were never too busy to sip invisible tea from tiny doll cups or have a catch in the backyard as twilight gathered into evening.

It is an ideal that evaporates like dew in the face of the increasingly common reality of father as callow boy-man who has no idea how to fulfill the role to which circumstance has called him, often because he had no father of his own to teach him.

So this is a requiem for idealized memory. But it is also a requiem for Lee Willie DeJesus.

Whatever he was, whatever he could have been, died when he killed his son. But then, he was probably dead to his own possibilities long before that.

There are many things a boy needs his father to teach him: how to be honest and industrious; how to hit the water and not the porcelain; how to shave your beard or tie a tie; how to treat a lady. But like too many men, DeJesus apparently thought the primary lesson he had to teach his son was violence. This, he must have thought, would make his boy a man.

And this is a requiem for tomorrow’s victims.

Meaning the little boys and girls who grow up hit more often than they are hugged, left by blind mothers in the care of

YOUR COMMUNITY. YOUR NEWSPAPER.

broken men who have no sense of self, no definition of role, no clue.

Police say that after his son became unresponsive, DeJesus waited as much as an hour before calling 911. Initially, he blamed the beating on a babysitter before finally confessing what he had done.

DeJesus’ mother, Maria DeJesus, told CBS 4 (a local TV news station) she did not think her son was capable of the crime of which he stands accused. “He might be capable of beating her the boy’s mother, but they always go at it, but then she goes right back to him.

And if he did, he knows I love him. He knows what time it is. He knows he’s got to suffer with the consequences.”

This is a requiem for a handsome little boy named Willy Brown. And also an epitaph: He deserved better.

Suicide car bomber kills 8 west of Baghdad BAGHDAD (AP) – A suicide car bomber struck a police patrol west of Baghdad Sunday and killed eight people, most of them civilians standing in line outside a post office to collect the monthly stipend for the country’s poorest, police officials said.

The blast comes just a day after explosions tore through a market in the south killing 43 people.

Violence across Iraq has spiked in the past month as the U.S. moves ahead with a major drawdown of its troops set to be completed by the end of the month.

The increase in violence and the U.S. pullout have raised concerns about whether Iraqi security forces are up to the job of keeping militants from destabilizing the country further at a time of political uncertainty.

11 DEAD FROM FLOODS IN EUROPE WARSAW, Poland – The death toll in flooding in central Europe rose to 11 as Poland’s interior minister said Sunday that two more people had died in the southwestern region of the country.

The flooding has struck an area near the borders of Poland, Germany and the Czech Republic.

Heavy rains in Poland caused flooding in the southwestern town of Bogatynia and one person was already reported dead on Saturday.

In the northern Czech Republic, five people were found drowned over the weekend.

Another three people drowned in the eastern German state of Saxony on Saturday. Several roads and villages there were flooded by the swelling Neisse river and hundreds of people were evacuated with rubber boats by rescue workers from their homes in the city of Goerlitz.

The worst-hit town in Poland was Bogatynia, where a bridge was destroyed and many were left without electricity and running water.

Afghanistan: Civilian deaths up in 2010 KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) – Civilian war deaths in the first seven months of 2010 rose by 6 percent over the same period last year, Afghanistan’s human rights commission said Sunday. The modest increase suggested that U.S. and NATO efforts to hold down civilian casualties were having some success.

The Taliban and their allies were responsible for 68 percent of at least 1,325 civilian deaths recorded by the Afghan Independent Human Rights Commission, the organization said in a report.

Also flown to the capital was the lone survivor of the attack, an Afghan driver who said he was spared because he was a Muslim and recited Islamic holy verses as he begged for his life. The International Assistance Mission, which organized the trip, said the driver had been a trusted employee with four years of service.

country already dependent on foreign aid to prop up its economy and back its war against Islamist militants, the U.N. said Sunday.

The warning came as officials said at least 53 people were killed in landslides in northern Pakistan and authorities rushed to evacuate thousands of people threatened by flooding that submerged villages in the south.

The new devastation added to the disaster that has affected an estimated 15 million people.

The government has struggled to cope with the scale of the disaster, which has killed at least 1,500 people, prompting the international community to help by donating tens of millions of dollars and providing relief supplies.

NBA stars, Obama play hoops for troops WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama pulled together an informal dream team of current and former basketball superstars Sunday. But only a few people got to see it.

LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, Carmelo Anthony and other NBA all-stars joined Obama in Washington to entertain wounded troops.

The present-day stars were joined by some retired legends, including Bill Russell and Magic Johnson. College player Maya Moore of the Connecticut Huskies women’s team also played.

NYPD officer shot by another in gunfight NEW YORK – An argument at a block party escalated into gunfire, killing one man and wounding several others, including a police officer shot by a colleague in the hail of bullets, authorities said.

The gunfire erupted at about 3 a.m. Sunday in upper Manhattan, police Commissioner Raymond Kelly said.

One of the men fatally shot the other, Bronx resident Luis Soto, 22, police said. Five officers responded to the scene, and the gunman fired at them, Kelly said.

Slain doctors brought care to Afghanistan DENVER (AP) – Members of a medical team gunned down in Afghanistan brought some of the first toothbrushes and eyeglasses villagers had ever seen and spent no time talking about religion as they provided medical care, friends and aid organizations said Sunday.

Dr. Thomas Grams, 51, quit his dental practice in Durango, Colo., four years ago to work fulltime giving impoverished children free dental care in Nepal and Afghanistan, said Katy Shaw of Global Dental Relief, a Denver-based group that sends teams of dentists around the globe. He was killed Thursday, Shaw said, along with five other Americans, two Afghans, one German and a Briton.

“The kids had never seen toothbrushes. You should’ve seen the way they smiled after they learned to brush their teeth,” said Khris Nedam, head of the Kids 4 Afghan Kids in Livonia, Mich., which builds schools and wells in Afghanistan.

The team was attacked after a two-week mission in the remote Parun valley of Nuristan province.

Their bullet-riddled bodies were found Friday.

The Taliban has claimed credit for the at-

group is registered a nonprofit Christian organization but does not proselytize, said its director, Dirk Frans.

The 32-year-old daughter of a Knoxville, Tenn., pastor, Cheryl Beckett, was among the dead, her family said.

The family of Glen Lapp, 40, of Lancaster, Pa., learned of his death Sunday, according to the

But Grams’ twin brother, Tim, said his brother wasn’t trying to spread religious views.

“He was there to help the people of Afghanistan,” said Tim Grams, holding back tears in a telephone call from An-

chorage, Alaska on Sunday, after the U.S. State Department confirmed his brother’s death.

The members of the group were working with the International Assistance Mission, or IAM, one of the longest serving non-governmental organizations operating in Afghanistan. The

Program earns good grade

BY DAVID NIVENS ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

GUILFORD COUNTY – Junior Achievement is getting good grades for helping local middle school students answer the basic economic questions in their lives.

JA students’ knowledge of economics and business ethics increased 24 percent, and their understanding of education ethics got a 14 percent boost, according to an analysis by Donald Jud, an emeritus professor in the Bryan School of Business and Economics at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro.

AT A GLANCE

–

These sponsors contributed $76,500 to Junior Achievement programs in Guilford County middle schools: The American Express Charitable Fund, the Council for Economic Education, Deluxe Corp. Foundation, Lincoln Financial Foundation, Alexander Worth McAlister Foundation, and Tannenbaum-Sternberger Foundation.

For more information, contact Program Manager Davida Hamilton at 299-4339 or dhamilton@centralncja.org.

“Test results confirm that students in the JA classes significantly increased their knowledge of basic economics and their appreciation of the importance of ethical behavior in business and education following instruction

in JA classes,” Jud said.

This spring, JA volunteers completed the first of a threeyear initiative to teach 1,100 Guilford County middleschool students the essentials of financial literacy.

Eight middle schools, includ-

ing Ferndale and Welborn in High Point, participated.

A 2007 survey by the N.C. Treasurer’s Office on student financial literacy shows that only 47.7 percent of seventh-graders statewide can correctly answer the most basic questions about money management.

“Our young people deserve a better start than these statistics show,” said Cyndy Hayworth, president of JA of Central N.C. “With the generous partnership of these corporate and private foundations, we are able to give these students the foundation they need to stay out of the devastating trouble af-

fecting so many adults in the past few years.”

JA is a partnership of businesses, volunteers, and educators working together to help students, especially in Title I schools, where demographics show they are more likely to be growing up in families at or below the poverty line.

Junior Achievement of Central N.C,, founded in 1965, served approximately 8,800 students in Guilford, Alamance, Randolph and Rockingham counties in 2009-2010 with activities-based classroom programs and job shadowing experiences.

Talton (Tal) Jerry Harrison TRINITY – Mr. Talton Jerry Harrison, 70 of Trinity, NC, passed away at his home, Saturday, August 7, 2010 after a brief bout with cancer.

The family will receive friends Monday, August 9, 2010 from 6:30 until 8 p.m. at the J.C. Green & Sons Funeral Home, 122 W. Main St. Thomasville.

Talton was born in Thomasville and grew up across from Finch Field with a love of baseball and a work ethic forged in the tobacco fields of Davidson County. He attended Hasty School and graduated in the first class of Ledford High School in 1958. While working full-time, Talton earned his Bachelor of Science degree from High Point College.

After graduation, he worked briefly as a salesman for Esso before enlisting in the United States Air Force.

After honorably serving his country, Talton furthered his education at Davidson County Com-

He continued serving clients parttime, until he officially retired in 2007.

While a firm believer in hard work, Talton was also generous with his time. As a founding member and first president of Guil-Rand Youth Soccer, he helped bring youth soccer to the Archdale-Trinity area.

As a Piedmont Triad Regional Water Authority board member for 12 years, he helped develop new water sources for this rapidly growing area of the state.

In his spare time, Talton enjoyed NASCAR racing, baseball, computers, maintaining his yard, attending his children’s and grandchildren’s sporting events, and fishing.

Talton requested that, in lieu of flowers, donations be made to Hospice of the Piedmont or your local Hospice organization.

Talton will be remembered as a generous and hard-working man with a dry wit, who loved his family. He might describe his life as “not half bad.”

Man who helped bring Saints to New Orleans dies NEW ORLEANS (AP) – Businessman Dave Dixon, who fought to bring an NFL team to New Orleans and was the catalyst behind construction of the Louisiana Superdome, died on Sunday. He was 87.

Dixon had been ill since January, said his son, Frank Dixon, who confirmed his death.

“He was always coming up with new thoughts and ideas. Until his dying day, he was thinking,” Frank Dixon said.

Dixon persuaded New Orleans officials to pursue a football franchise rather than baseball in the 1960s.

In his autobiography, “The Saints, The Superdome and the Scandal,” Dixon wrote there were strong reasons for the NFL to consider New Orleans, including its mild winter weather, a great football tradition and 80,000-seat Tulane Stadium. Dixon was a Tulane University graduate. Dixon staged an NFL double-header at

More than 1,000 employees could work at a planned federal outpatient clinic for veterans pegged for either Forsyth or Guilford counties, the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs says.

The clinic – one of only seven proposed in the country – is slated to open in the summer of 2013.

There also will be a clinic in the Charlotte area and one in Fayetteville.

The agency expects to select a local site soon, then secure a purchase option and a developer, said Bruce Sprecher, a public-affairs spokesman for the agency.

Dear Abby: My darling wife passed away after 38 years of marriage.

After she died, her sister and I began talking on the phone as a way to get me through a very difficult time. A year later, I finally asked her to dinner.We have discovered we have feelings for each other. Do you think there is anything wrong with this, and are we wrong for spending time together? – Consoled in Labama Dear Consoled: Not only is there nothing wrong with it, there is a lot right with it. After being in-laws for nearly four decades, you have a wealth of shared history.

And that can be the basis of a strong relationship.

Dear Abby: On April 6, you printed my letter about having been sent a photocopy of a high

school graduation announcement. No picture was included, nor a card – just the photocopy folded into a cheap envelope. (The “real� ones had been sent to more “important� people!)

You called me to discuss my letter, and your call made my day.

My mom happened to call me right after I got off the phone, and when I told her my letter was being printed in your column, she informed me that she had actually received a photocopy of a thank-you card that day, from the same person I was talking about in my letter. These people continue to floor me.

Anyway, I hope this is the last “photocopy� story you’ll be getting about them. But who knows? There could still be photocopies of wedding invitations and birth announcements in the future. – Even More Flabbergasted in The South Dear Even More Flabbergasted: Indeed there could. Obviously the folks you described in your letter aren’t Dear Abby readers. It’s lucky you have a sense of humor. With friends like those you need one.

ear Abby: My widowed father-in-law is 77 and my mom is 71. I try to spend time with them so they won’t be lonely. The problem is they now have only one interest – gambling.

They are only happy if someone will take them to a casino. A simple dinner or movie is no longer wanted.

I don’t mind going once in a while. The closest casino is 90 miles away.

But it ends up being an all-day affair, with me gambling money I would prefer not to let go of that way. I have brought books and spent time reading in the car or in restaurants, but that’s not quality time, either.

They think that because my husband is successful, I should have no problem with money.

Abby, I am careful how I spend money. You can’t be in a casino for four hours and not lose a lot of money. Now they’re mad at me because I don’t want to take them anymore. Mom even wanted to stretch out the trip to an overnighter.

The day Lauterbach was killed, she showed up at his door, demanded money and said she was leaving North Carolina.

According to a January 2008 affidavit, Lauterbach bought a bus ticket to El Paso, Texas, on the day she was killed but later came to Laurean’s home. In a note to his wife, Laurean said they had been arguing when Lauterbach pulled out a knife and slit her own throat.

But an autopsy on Lauterbach’s remains showed she died after being hit in the head.

For investigators, though, the blood spatter on the ceiling and the blood pooled on the wall of Laurean’s home were telltale signs of a violent confrontation.

Lawyers on both sides of the case and Onslow County Sheriff Ed Brown all declined to discuss the details of the murder before trial.

The trial was moved out of Jacksonville in January after a judge ruled pretrial publicity could influence jurors.

JACKSONVILLE (AP) – Investigators said Marine Cpl. Cesar Laurean had an obvious motive to kill his pregnant Marine colleague: She accused him of raping her and fathering her unborn baby.

However, Naval investigators said they have no physical evidence or eyewitnesses to corroborate Lance Cpl. Maria Lauterbach’s claims, and Laurean denied they ever had sexual contact.

It will be up to a jury to decide what happened when Laurean goes on trial Tuesday in Goldsboro on first-degree murder and a litany of other charges.

Onslow County District Attorney Dewey Hudson has said the case is one of the most perplexing he’s seen in three decades as a prosecutor. And the accounts of how Lauterbach died aren’t any less tricky.

Her charred remains were found in a fire pit behind Laurean’s white, ranchstyle home, which remains a curiosity for passers-by.

ecently there was a tragic story in the local news about an elderly woman whose clothes caught fire while she was around her stove in the kitchen.

She received severe burns and later died as a result of the injuries.

We are fortunate not to see many instances FIREHOUSE like that, but it CHAT serves as a remindLee er of how Knight easily ■■■this can happen if someone is distracted and not focused on what they’re doing when working around a stove.

The following tips are reminders that we should always be vigilant about safety.

Stoves are an ignition source for anything that will burn.

Wear short-sleeve or close-fitting clothing when cooking. Loose clothing can come in contact with gas flames or stove burners and catch fire. Keep pot holders, wooden utensils, dish towels and all other flammables a safe distance from burners.

Keep animals away from the stove for their safety and to keep them from knocking things onto the stove.

It’s also extremely important to keep the stove clean to prevent grease fires.

Another area of concern is young children, who are much more likely to be injured around a stove. It’s best to keep children out of the kitchen when cooking, but, at a minimum, enforce a child-free zone of three feet from where hot food or drink are being prepared. As parents we also need to keep hot foods and liquids away from table and counter edges so kids cannot reach them.

Use back burners when children are present, and keep handles turned toward the back of the stove.

When moving hot foods, use oven mitts and pot holders that are in good repair.

Holes or worn areas could lead to burns and dropping pans, which endangers others.

When moving hot foods, make sure the path is clear to avoid bumping into others or tripping over items in the floor.

Never use mitts or pot holders that are wet, as they can cause scald burns.

Burns can be dangerous and extremely painful. Taking a few extra seconds for safety is well be worth the effort.

Appendicitis isn’t easy call

D

ear Dr. Donohue: This past April, our family made a 300-mile trip to visit my husband’s mother.

We have three children, ages 9, 7 and 5. About an hour into the trip, the 7-year-old complained that his stomach hurt. A little later we stopped for lunch, but he wouldn’t eat. An hour later, he was doubled up in pain.

We stopped at the next town to locate a hospital.

The doctors weren’t able to make up their minds about what was going on.

They finally took a scan, and said he had appendicitis. Why all this time?

I suspected it from the beginning. – R.W.

BLONDIE

B.C.

Appendicitis is one of the most common causes of abdominal pain and one of the most common surgical procedures. It’s not always an easy call.

Many other conditions mimic appendicitis pain.

When I started out, I once asked an older doctor to examine one of my patients who I believed had appendicitis. After he did, he shook his head and said, “I’ve been at this for 35 years, and it doesn’t get any easier.”

The appendix is a wormlike structure dangling from the first part of the colon in the lower-right corner of the abdomen. It has a hollow core. If the core is blocked, the appendix swells. Swelling cuts off its blood supply. If the swollen appendix isn’t removed within 48 hours, it bursts, and that creates big trouble.

appendix spread throughout the abdomen and cause a nasty infection.

HEALTH When things go Dr. Paul accordDonohue ing to ■■■ the book, appendix pain starts out around the navel, and then moves to the lowerright side. However, the position of the appendix varies considerably, so the pain that it causes also varies in location. If a diagonal line is drawn from the navel to the right pelvic bone, pressure on an area slightly removed from the pelvic bone is a big tip that the pain comes from a swollen appendix. This rule doesn’t hold all the time either.

An elevated white blood count and a fever point to appendicitis.

Neither might be present.

These days of CT scans and ultrasound take much of the guesswork out of arriving at a correct diagnosis. All the same, things aren’t as easy as they might seem.

I hope your son recovered quickly.

Dear Dr. Donohue: My daughter is on Effexor for depression. She’s been on it for six months, and actually is doing quite well. She’s able to handle her job and take care of her family.

Does she take this medicine for life? I worry

about addiction and what it might be doing to her brain. – N.M. Antidepressants are not addicting. They don’t damage the brain.

What they do is restore normal brain chemistry.

An imbalance in brain messenger chemicals is believed to lead to depression.

Your daughter’s doctor will tell her when she can stop taking the medicine. If a person relapses into another depression after stopping medicine, then she should take antidepressants for a more prolonged period, possibly for life.

Dear Dr. Donohue: I think my husband is an alcoholic. He drinks far too much. He’s not abusive, but his consumption of alcohol is more than a six-pack of beer a day, and sometimes whiskey. He usually falls asleep in a chair. My sister tells me the cage test can diagnose alcoholism.

What is it, and where can he get it done? He won’t talk about these things to me. – C.L. It’s not a lab test. It’s four questions. They are: 1. Have you ever felt the need to Cut down on your drinking? 2.

Are you Annoyed when people criticize your drinking? 3. Do you ever feel Guilty about your drinking? 4. Have you ever taken a drink first thing in the morning as an Eye-opener?

Two “yes” answers indicate alcoholism. It’s a simple but reliable test.

Robin Goodman shows off some of the upholstered items to be offered Saturday at the annual Salvation Army Women’s Auxiliary furniture sale.

Sale’s popularity soars Women’s Auxiliary expects big turnout for fundraiser

BY JIMMY TOMLIN ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

WANT TO GO?

IGH POINT – If you’re in the market for quality furniture at an affordable price, the Salvation Army is the place to be this weekend.

The Salvation Army on Saturday will present its annual fundraising furniture sale, a signature event that has grown into one of High Point’s most highly anticipated fundraisers.

A preview night will be held Friday.

“This sale has been extremely popular,” says event chairwoman Robin Goodman, adding that the sale typically draws hundreds of shoppers looking for deals. “They used to start lining up at 5 in the morning, and now it’s more like 3 or 4, and last year we thought we had people just stay from the preview night. They do like getting in line early.”

Now in its eighth year, the sale benefits the Salvation Army and its many programs.

Last year’s sale raised $42,500 for the organization, and previous sales have garnered as much as $60,000, according to Goodman.

The sale items – all of which were donated by Furnitureland South – run the gamut, from entertainment centers, dining room hutches and bedroom suits to upholstery, outdoor furniture and home accessories such as mirrors and framed artwork.

“There’s some of everything, and there’s something for every price range,” Goodman says.

The preview night, held for the first time last year, helps build excitement about the sale, she says.

The eighth annual fundraising furniture sale of the Salvation Army Women’s Auxiliary will be held Saturday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., at the Salvation Army, 301 W. Green Drive.

A preview night – with no sales, just a preview – will be held Friday from 5 to 8 p.m. Admission is $10.

All proceeds from the sale and the preview night will go to the Salvation Army. furniture and measure and really just take your time looking at selections, because there are no sales during the preview night – it’s just a preview,” Goodman explains.

“People can plan their strategy. They can pick out what they want and decide if it’s worth staying in line all night.”

The cost for the preview night is $10 – which includes light hors d’oeuvres – and proceeds go to the Salvation Army. More than a hundred people attended the preview night last year, according to Goodman.

In addition to finding deals on furniture, shoppers like the fact that they’re contributing to a worthy cause.

“We help support all the local activities of the Salvation Army, including the women’s shelter and the Boys & Girls Club,” Goodman says. “The money can be used to provide necessities for the shelter and to pay for scholarships and equipment for the Boys & Girls Club, plus anything else that comes up that is otherwise unbudgeted. We do a lot of different things for the Salvation Army.” jtomlin@hpe.com | 888-3579

If you are in the market for a table, Saturday’s Salvation Army Women’s Auxiliary furniture sale seems like a good starting place. Shoppers can preview items on Friday evening.

Church hosts Super Salad Supper ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

Fairfield United Methodist Church will host its annual Super Salad Supper to benefit local missions Saturday, from 4:30 to 7:30 p.m., at the church, located at 1505 N.C. 62 West.

Among those who will benefit from the supper is Tony Cox of Archdale, who is battling acute myeloid leukemia.

Cox has been receiving

chemotherapy treatment, but he’s hoping to find a match through the Be The Match Registry of the National Marrow Donor Program, Cox so he can have a bone marrow transplant. One of the challenges will be finding someone with a trace of Cherokee Indian, as Cox found out dur-

ing the testing that his father’s grandmother was Cherokee.

Childhood obesity is a national epidemic and a health issue that affects our state and local community. To help combat obesity, a grant from the Randolph Hospital Community Health Foundation, in collaboration with Randolph Hospital, Randolph Health Improvement Partnership and the Randolph/ Asheboro YMCA, is providing a new program for adolescents called Be RHEAL, or “Ready for Healthy Eating and Active Lifestyles.”

There are two programs, one for boys and one for girls, in an effort to focus on each gender’s unique challenges to a healthy lifestyle.

On Sept. 8, the Be RHEAL program for boys ages 10-14 will begin, and on Sept. 13 for girls 10-14. The program focuses on healthy eating and positive selfesteem while implementing a variety of fun, interactive fitness programs to teach the importance of regular physical activity.

Those wishing to participate must be willing to commit to the seven-week program. The boys’ program will be held between Sept.

8 and Oct. 20 on Wednesdays from 6:30 to 7:45 p.m. The girls’ program will be held between Sept. 13 and Oct. 25 on Mondays from 6:30 to 7:45 p.m.

All classes will be held at the Asheboro/Randolph YMCA Teen Center, 343 N.C. 42 North in Asheboro.

Space is limited, and registration is required by Sept. 2. For more information or to register, call Janet Hughes at (336) 633-7711.

Cy the Cynic says there must be a better way to start the day than getting up early; he considers “Good morning” an oxymoron.

Cy is no early trumpdrawer either. He was South in a team match, and the contract was four spades at both tables. At one table South ruffed the second heart, drew trumps and led a club.

West took the ace and led a third heart, forcing out South’s last trump. South then led a club to dummy to finesse in diamonds, but when West won, the defense cashed a heart.

CONTROL Cy was in no rush to draw trumps, risking loss of control. After ruffing the second heart, he led a club. West won and led another heart, and the Cynic ruffed and took two high trumps. He next led a low diamond.

If West won and led a fourth heart, Cy could ruff, lead a club to dummy, draw trumps with the nine and run the diamonds.

So West played low.

Cy then took the K-Q of clubs and led the ace and a low diamond. No matter what West returned, Cy would win the last two tricks.

DAILY QUESTION You hold: S 9 3 2 H K 6 5 2 D J 9 6 C K Q 10.

Dealer, at your left, opens one spade. Your partner doubles, you respond two hearts and he bids three diamonds. What do you say?

ANSWER: If your hand had been any better, you’d have jumped to three hearts to invite game. Partner’s sequence – double, then bid a suit – promises great strength.

Bid five diamonds. If he goes on to slam on a hand such as None, A Q 4, K Q 10 8 5 2, A J 7 6, you’ll cheer.

HOROSCOPE

CROSSWORD

Monday, August 9, 2010 CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Audrey Tautou, 34; Gillian Anderson, 42; Whitney Houston, 47; Melanie Griffith, 53 HAPPY BIRTHDAY: Opportunities are available, so pursue every offer diligently. Combining the old with the new will allow you to move forward with greater speed and versatility. Having a passionate approach to whatever you do will enable you to convince others to take part in your plans. Love is in the stars and finding someone new or renewing a relationship that means a lot to you will work out well. Your numbers are 2, 6, 11, 21, 27, 36, 45 ARIES (March 21-April 19): You can make an impact on whatever group you share your thoughts with. Getting to know someone you meet through work will contribute to your life in many ways.

Start a new health routine. ★★★★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Someone may try to fast-talk you into taking on a task or obligation that doesn’t belong to you. A good sob story will be a red flag that it’s time to move on. Keep a close eye on children if you are responsible for them and don’t give in to idle threats, emotional blackmail or temper tantrums. ★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): A love relationship will flourish with a little attention and affection.

A creative idea can be turned into a lucrative venture, bringing you greater freedom in the future.

Use your energy wisely. ★★★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): Listen to grievances voiced by friends or family and, together, you will find workable solutions. Putting in a couple of hours work on a project will pay off, and helping someone out will bring its rewards. ★★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Make plans to get out and enjoy the company of friends or family or do things that will keep you busy and out of trouble.

You need to blow off steam in order to temper anxiety and the chance that you might make a foolish decision. ★★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You may have to look back at all your past experiences in order to realize what the possibilities are. There is plenty you can do to feel renewed enthusiasm about future prospects. You are overdue for a change or a challenge that will stimulate and inspire you. ★★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Someone will be watching your every move. Don’t leave room for mistakes that could cost you emotionally, financially or physically. A job prospect looks inviting. ★★★★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Get busy on a project that you have left to sit for too long. A change may occur due to an emotional situation. Don’t give in to someone or something if it will make you feel cheated. Be prepared to negotiate. ★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): People, places and old challenges will be back in full force, only this time you will be ready to fight back and win.

Confusion while traveling will lead to delays. Reconnect with an old friend or lover. ★★★★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Your mind will be in fast forward regarding deals, contracts, proposals or opportunities to invest. Before you proceed, listen carefully to what’s being offered.

Empty promises are likely. ★★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You will be emotionally confused when it comes to partnerships and should keep your distance if anyone tries to push you into something that doesn’t feel right.

There is money to be made if you put your talent and knowledge to work for you. ★★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Uncertainty will prevail where partnerships are concerned. Before getting involved in any sort of deal that might cost you financially, do your homework. It’s likely you will be fed false information this time. ★★★

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.

Deacs try schedule plan B

TOP SCORES

---

DEMON DEACONS NOTES:

S

ometimes plans don’t just work out.

That’s the reason Wake Forest is opening the season with Football Championship Subdivision member Presbyterian on Sept. 2.

Head coach Jim Grobe was expecting to play 12 Football Bowl Subdivision opponents until a late cancellation threw a wrench into the works, sending the Deacons scrambling to find a replacement.

“We had Tulane scheduled and they couldn’t come,” Grobe said. “We played there and they owed us a return game.”

Grobe said the Green SPORTS Wave backed out less than a month before the schedule Greer was to be announced by Smith the ACC office. The change ■■■ leaves the Deacons facing an FCS school that went 0-11 last year.

“We were scrambling,” Grobe said. “(Assistant Athletics Director for Football) Bill Faircloth was sending emails to everybody. We were about three weeks away from announcing our schedule and I guess everyone had through we had lost our minds, saying that we needed a game.

I was afraid we were going to hear back from the Green Bay Packers.

“I appreciate Presbyterian helping us out. They were kind enough to say ‘we’ll play’ even though they already had Clemson on their schedule. We were afraid we were going to be stuck with 11 games.”

Presbyterian will be the just the second game for the Deacons against a Big South member. In the only one so far, Wake defeated Liberty 34-14 in 2006.

ON THE BENCH Sophomore wide receiver Chris Givens, who led the Deacs last season with eight touchdown catches, and sophomore reserve defensive lineman Kevin Smith will not play against Presbyterian or in the second game against Duke.

Grobe said both are suspended for those games for violation of team rules, but will be eligible to return for the game at Stanford, the third one on the schedule. Both will be allowed to practice.

Despite catching 45 passes for 629 yards, Givens entered fall practice as No. 2 at one of the wideout positions behind Devon Brown, who the team with 61 catches last season. Marshall Williams, who caught 60 balls last year, is the other starter at wide receiver.

That’s the Juan Montoya snaps 113-race Cup winless streak

WATKINS GLEN, N.Y. (AP) – Juan Pablo Montoya erased 113 races of futility Sunday, winning a duel with Marcos Ambrose and the Sprint Cup race at Watkins Glen International.

Montoya, who started third, pulled away on a late restart from Ambrose, his biggest challenger all day, and beat Kurt Busch by 4.7 seconds in the 90-lap race around the 11turn, 2.45-mile layout.

It was Montoya’s second career victory, the other coming on NASCAR’s other road course at Sonoma in 2007, 113 races ago. Ambrose was third, his third straight top-three finish at Watkins Glen, followed by AJ Allmendinger and polesitter Carl Edwards.

“It’s about time,” Montoya said. “We’ve lost a lot of them, gave away a lot of them. It gets frustrating, everybody fighting.”

Jamie McMurray, Tony Stewart, Kyle Busch, Jeff Burton and Jeff Gordon rounded out the top 10.

It was the first career victory for Montoya’s crew chief, Brian Pattie, whose call for four tires at the Brickyard 400 cost his driver a chance at victory.

“It’s huge,” Pattie said, fighting back tears.

“I still want to win on an oval. He wants to prove his point. The Brickyard was my fault.

Hope this makes up for it. Trophies mean a lot. It’s pretty cool.”

Ambrose, who won his third straight Nationwide race at The Glen on Saturday, was poised to capture his first Sprint Cup victory at Sonoma in June when things went awry.

He stalled his No. 47 while leading under a late caution, was unable to keep pace, had to restart seventh when he couldn’t get it refired, and finished sixth.

He seemed destined to finally break through, but the handling went away on the last set of tires and Kurt Busch slipped past him late.

“It hurts,” Ambrose said. “It doesn’t feel nice.”

Montoya was able to pull away on every restart, but each time Ambrose reeled him back in. But when the race restarted for the final time with 15 laps remaining, Kurt Busch passed Ambrose as Montoya took off again, pulling away as Busch kept Ambrose at bay. Ambrose got past Busch in the first turn of lap 77 and began the chase again as it became a two-car contest. This time, Ambrose was unable to cut into the lead as Montoya steadily pulled away, increasing his lead from 1.7 seconds to 4.2 seconds in a five-lap span.

HIT AND RUN

A

popular baseball cliche tells us that we’ll likely see something we’ve never seen before every time we go to a bigleague baseball game.

Of course, that’s much more likely for fans like me who attend one or two games a season, tops.

Still, it rang true last week when three friends and I visited Washington to catch a pair of Nationals-Phillies games.

On Saturday night, we watched Ryan Zimmerman drill a walk-off, three-run homer

WHO’S NEWS

QUICK HITS

Demon Deacon sophomore pitcher Michael Dimock, who played in high school at Wesleyan Christian Academy, spent his summer playing for Bourne in the Cape Cod Collegiate League.

In eight appearances that included three starts, Dimock allowed six runs on 20 hits with 27 strikeouts. He finished with an 0-1 record and an ERA of 2.49.

BASEBALL ATLANTA SAN FRANCISCO

about 460 feet to dead center field to give the Nats a 7-5 victory. None of us recalled seeing a walk-off homer in person before.

The next afternoon, the Phillies went 11 innings for a victory to salvage one of the three games.

But the thing I took away from that game was the lasting beauty of our Nation’s Capitol.

Our seats in the third deck behind home plate gave us a breathtaking view of the top of the Capitol building.

I probably spent as much time admiring

that sight as I did watching the game.

The thought occurred to me that while I may not always like the occupants of Congress or the White House or the Supreme Court, etc., I always love America.

I imagine hundreds of millions of other folks of every political persuasion share my sentiment.

And that’s a great feeling to take away from any event – sporting or otherwise.

YOUR COMMUNITY. YOUR NEWSPAPER.

– MARK MCKINNEY ENTERPRISE SPORTS EDITOR

When Dre’ Bly left the Detroit Lions, he didn’t expect to come back to the team.

He’s happy to be wrong.

Bly, the former North Carolina Tar Heel legend, was traded away after publicly blaming quarterback Joey Harrington for head coach Steve Mariucci’s firing in 2006, but signed a freeagent contract with Detroit in July.

“I honestly didn’t think I’d ever be back here again after what happened with Joey and the trade,” he said Sunday. “But I’m glad it worked out, because I played the best ball of my career in Detroit, and I’m glad to have a chance to possibly finish here.”

In his first stint with the team, Bly was a twotime Pro Bowl selection, but this time, the expectations are lower.

In the first week of training camp, Bly has spent most of his time playing nickel back.

At 33, Bly doesn’t have the same athletic abilities that he had coming out of North Carolina in 1999, but he thinks that his experience more than makes up for it. “I haven’t lost my ball skills,” he said.

Bowden gone, not forgotten at Florida State

AP

Blue Jays pitcher Brandon Morrow works against the Tampa Bay Rays during the third inning of Sunday’s game in Toronto. Morrow lost his no-hit bid when Evan Longoria singled with two outs in the ninth. Morrow finished with 17 strikeouts and two walks in a 1-0 one-hit victory.

Morrow just misses no-hitter THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

TORONTO – The Blue Jays’ Brandon Morrow lost a no-hit bid with two outs in the ninth inning on a single by Evan Longoria, then stuck out his 17th batter of the game to finish off a 1-0 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays on Sunday.

The three-game sweep was crippling for the Rays, who have lost a season-high five straight after briefly moving ahead of the New York Yankees in the AL East earlier in the week.

Vernon Wells drove in the only run before leaving with a dislocated toe, which happened when he made a leaping catch against the wall in the sixth inning to preserve Morrow’s no-hit bid.

The Rays came close to being involved in their fourth no-hitter of the season, which would be a record for the modern era. Matt Garza threw the first no-hitter in Rays history against Detroit on July 26, and Tampa Bay was on the short end against Arizona’s Edwin Jackson on June 26 and Oakland’s Dallas Braden on May 9, when he finished off a perfect game.

Dave Stieb threw the only nohitter for the Blue Jays on Sept. 2, 1990, at Cleveland. The club record for strikeouts in a game is 18, set

by Roger Clemens on Aug. 25, 1998.

TWINS 5, INDIANS 4 CLEVELAND – Jim Thome hit a two-run shot for career homer No. 578 and the Twins rallied for five runs in the fifth to pull within a half-game of the AL Central-leading White Sox.

Thome’s drive against his former team came against David Huff (2-11), helping the Twins take two of three in the series and earn their 12th win in 16 games.

Brian Duensing (5-1) pitched a career-high 71⁄3 innings for the Twins, yielding three earned runs and nine hits. Matt Guerrier retired the two men he faced in the eighth and Matt Capps worked a perfect ninth for his second save in three tries since being acquired July 29 from Washington. He had 26 saves with the Nationals.

ORIOLES 4, WHITE SOX 3 BALTIMORE – Jeremy Guthrie outpitched Mark Buehrle, and the surging Orioles won for the fifth time in six games under new manager Buck Showalter.

Felix Pie homered for the Orioles, who took the lead for good with a two-run sixth. Since Showalter made his debut in the dugout Tuesday, Baltimore has swept three games from the Los Angeles Angels and won two of three from the first-place White Sox.

TIGERS 9, ANGELS 4 DETROIT – Johnny Damon drove in three runs, Alex Avila and Will Rhymes had two RBIs apiece and the Tigers snapped a four-game losing streak while avoiding a series sweep.

Rick Porcello (5-10) allowed three runs, two earned, and eight hits in six innings to earn his first win since May 23. Damon hit a two-run single in the eighth and Austin Jackson drove in a run with a base hit as the Tigers increased their

lead to 9-4. Detroit chased Trevor Bell (1-3) in the sixth.

MARINERS 3, ROYALS 2 SEATTLE – Jason Vargas allowed one run in six solid innings to win his seventh game at home, and Casey Kotchman’s two-run single in the sixth gave Seattle the lead for good.

Vargas (8-5) improved to 7-2 at Safeco Field this season, taking a shutout into the sixth inning. It was his second consecutive victory after going more than a month without a win.

Kansas City starter Kyle Davies (5-7) was Vargas’ equal until the sixth inning when he gave up three straight one-out hits. The last single, a liner up the middle

by Kotchman, scored Ichiro Suzuki and Chone Figgins with the go-ahead runs. Figgins added a bit of insurance in the eighth with an RBI single to score Suzuki.

ATHLETICS 3, RANGERS 2 OAKLAND, Calif. – Kurt Suzuki hit a tiebreaking sacrifice fly in the seventh inning, Trevor Cahill allowed six hits through eight and the Athletics beat the first-place Rangers.

Rajai Davis and Coco Crisp also drove in runs for the A’s, who won for the eighth time in their last 10 home games. Josh Hamilton and Nelson Cruz drove in runs for the Rangers, who have lost four of their last seven.

Cahill (12-4) won his fifth straight against the Rangers despite allowing two unearned runs in the sixth.

Michael Wuertz pitched the ninth for his fifth save.

Lowe, Ross spark Braves past Giants THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ATLANTA – Derek Lowe pitched into the sixth inning before leaving with an injury and David Ross hit a two-run homer, helping the Atlanta Braves beat San Francisco 6-3 on Sunday.

Lowe (11-9) was bothered by cramping in his right hamstring.

The right-hander allowed two runs and five hits in 51⁄3 innings.

Four relievers combined to finish up, with Takashi Saito tossing a scoreless ninth for his first save of the season.

Omar Infante hit a solo homer for Atlanta, which won three of four in the series and has won four of five overall. The NL East-leading Braves also improved their major league-best home record to 39-15 and maintained a two-game lead over Philadelphia, which beat the New York Mets 6-5.

Jonathan Sanchez (8-7) pitched four innings for the Giants, yielding four runs and five hits.

REDS 11, CUBS 4 CHICAGO – Joey Votto and Jonny Gomes scored four runs apiece to back a strong start by Travis Wood, and the Cincinnati Reds beat the Chicago Cubs 11-4 on Sunday for their ninth win in 11 games.

Wood (3-1) took a no-hitter into the sixth inning before fading late.

Votto backed him with a two-run

homer in the eighth and had two hits, and Gomes set a career high with four walks, coming around each time. He also singled late in the game but did not score.

Jay Bruce added three hits, including a two-run double in the first, and the Reds banged out 13 in all while completing the weekend sweep with an easy victory.

Cincinnati increased its lead in the NL Central to two games over St. Louis, which was rained out in Florida, and will host the Cardinals in the opener of a three-game set tonight.

PHILLIES 6, METS 5 PHILADELPHIA – Raul Ibanez sparked a five-run third inning with a three-run homer, and Philadelphia backed Roy Halladay with a dozen hits.

Ibanez clubbed a hanging knuckleball from R.A. Dickey off the batter’s eye. Jayson Werth had three hits, including a solo homer, and Brian Schneider and Ross Gload also drove in runs for Philadelphia. Halladay (14-8) struggled on an 88-degree afternoon, allowing five runs and nine hits in seven innings. Brad Lidge worked around a leadoff single by Josh Thole for his 14th save in 18 opportunities.

BREWERS 11, ASTROS 6 MILWAUKEE – Casey McGehee hit a three-run homer and Lorenzo Cain drove in the first three runs of

his career, helping Milwaukee complete a three-game series sweep.

McGehee drove a ball into the Brewers’ bullpen in left-center field in the fourth to make it 11-4, after just missing a three-run homer in the first with an RBI double off the wall.

ROCKIES 8, PIRATES 4 PITTSBURGH – Carlos Gonzalez hit his 25th homer and finished with four hits, helping the Rockies salvage a split of the four-game series.

Gonzalez went 4 for 5 with his eighth homer in his past 11 games, drove in three runs and scored twice, helping Colorado win for the seventh time in 10 games. He went 9 for 18 in the series.

PADRES 10, DIAMONDBACKS 1 PHOENIX – Mat Latos pitched six scoreless innings in a combined three-hitter, Jerry Hairston Jr. created havoc from the leadoff spot and the San Diego Padres beat Arizona 10-1 on Sunday to avoid a three-game sweep by the last-place Diamondbacks.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) – Florida State held its first media day without Bobby Bowden in 34 years on Sunday.

The retired coach was not forgotten.

New Seminoles coach Jimbo Fisher said Bowden’s values and traditions have been retained even though some day-to-day operations have changed.

Fisher took over when Bowden was nudged into retirement in January. Fisher was offensive coordinator for three seasons and had the designation of coach-in-waiting in the final two.

“It’s an advantage to have the knowledge of a man of that character, that stature,” Fisher said. “That was the reason I came to Florida State because I knew I wanted to be a head coach. I didn’t know it would be here.”

The affable and always quotable Bowden amassed 389 victories, second only to Penn State’s Joe Paterno, still coaching with 394. But Florida State has gone 38-28 over the past five years, including three 7-6 seasons.

Fans will forgive Fisher if his oratory doesn’t quite measure up to Bowden’s if he can return the Seminoles to their former prominence.

Bowden has taken some of the pressure off Fisher by keeping his distance, allowing the new guy space to do things his way.

“It’s important for the program,” Fisher said.

“I heard him say that years ago.”

It was in 1993 when Bowden’s son, Terry, replaced Auburn’s Pat Dye. The former coach remained on the scene.

Fisher was one of Terry Bowden’s Auburn assistants.

Fisher said Bobby

Bowden told him when he was named coached in waiting that he wouldn’t be around for at least three years but also said “If you need me call me.”

“That doesn’t surprise you about the man he is,” Fisher said. “He understands it’s not about us, him and I. It’s about the kids.”

Fisher said he has called Bowden but what they talked about is private.

Florida State’s highpowered offense, which averaged 421.4 yards per game, returns largely intact including the entire offensive line and senior quarterback Christian Ponder. He led the Atlantic Coast Conference with 321.8 yards per game in total offense last year.

Ponder said he’s fully recovered from a shoulder injury that ended his season near the end of last year’s ninth game against Clemson.

Ponder, who already has earned a bachelor’s degree in finance and a masters in business administration, had considered skipping his senior season to enter the NFL draft until the injury ended those thoughts.

“In the long run it’s definitely better” returning, Ponder said.

“A lot of juniors who come out don’t really pan out.”

The Seminoles began practice last week. They will start the 2010 season by hosting Samford, Bowden’s alma mater, on Sept. 4 before a road trip the following Saturday to Oklahoma.

The Sooners are coached by Bob Stoops, older brother of Florida State’s new defensive coordinator, Mark Stoops, the youngest of the three coaching Stoops brothers. It’ll be the first time one Stoops will coach against another.

Battered Broncos catch a break ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) – The Denver Broncos ensured themselves that they wouldn’t lose another player to injury Sunday by canceling their practice.

Their next workout isn’t until Tuesday.

The Broncos have been hit by more than a dozen injuries so far, most notably Elvis Dumervil’s torn chest muscle that’s expected to sideline him for the season.

Top draft pick Demaryius Thomas apparently injured his left foot Saturday night – the same one he broke in predraft workouts – and underwent further medical tests Sunday.

The Broncos were concerned initially because it was the same foot Thomas fractured in March. But a person with knowledge of the diagnosis told The Associated Press on Sunday afternoon that Thomas wasn’t seriously injured and that he won’t be out long-term.

The person spoke on the condition of anonymity because the team hadn’t publicly addressed the issue.

It’s the first big break the Broncos have caught since they lost their top two tailbacks on the first day of training camp.

Fellow rookie receiver Eric Decker also suffered an injury to his left foot or ankle at the workout at Invesco Field on Saturday night that was attended by 20,782 fans, the largest crowd ever to watch a Broncos practice.

The Broncos needed a big receiver after trading away Pro Bowler Brandon Marshall to the Miami Dolphins, and they got two in the draft in Thomas and Decker, a third-rounder from Minnesota.

DODGERS 8, NATIONALS 3 LOS ANGELES – Ted Lilly overcame a rough start to win his second straight outing with Los Angeles, and the Dodgers capitalized on two Washington errors during a four-run first in an 8-3 victory over the Nationals on Sunday.

Chase switch – Martin in, Bowyer out for now THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WATKINS GLEN, N.Y. – There are four races left before the Chase for the Sprint Cup title, and the road race on Sunday at Watkins Glen shuffled the standings.

Clint Bowyer was the biggest loser, falling out of the top 12 as Mark Martin replaced him for the final spot, 10 points ahead of Bowyer.

“We’re making progress,” said Martin, who finished 19th and stayed out in his No. 5 Hendrick Motorsports Chevy during a caution to lead two laps and pick up five valuable bonus points.

“We’re not where we need to be, but we’re battling as hard as we can go. We’ve got to pick it up. If we can do that, keep gaining momentum in these

last four, then we’ve got a shot at it. But if we trip and stumble anywhere, it will be curtains.”

Bowyer started 34th in the No. 33 Richard Childress Racing Chevy and was up to 14th just past the midpoint of the 90lap race before a broken mount sent him to the garage for repairs. He finished 31st.

“It’s just frustrating,” Bowyer said. “We broke a piece of the car. The guys did a good job getting it welded up and getting back out there. As far as I’m concerned, it’s catastrophic for now.”

Points leader Kevin Harvick had a top-10 run going, but a flat tire cost him several positions on the final lap and he ended up 11th. That was one spot ahead of Ryan Newman, who gained one position in the standings to 14th, 83 points behind Martin

and just nine ahead of Jamie McMurray.

“We gained in the big picture,” Newman said. “We’re still out, still not where we want to be. We’ll keep going.”

Dale Earnhardt Jr., who started the race in 40th and complained that it was the worst car he’d ever had at Watkins Glen, finished 26th and fell two spots to 16th, 121 points behind Martin and a dozen points ahead of Kasey Kahne.

Greg Biffle, coming off his first victory of the season, ran consistently in the top 10 over the first 50 laps but was involved in a fender-bender and finished 24th. He remained 11th in the standings, 102 points ahead of Martin.

Despite running strong throughout the race, Denny Hamlin finished 37th after a

late-race crash with reigning four-time Cup champ Jimmie Johnson, who finished 28th.

“I had just been working my way up through there and had contact from behind,” said Johnson, who had rallied after getting an early flat tire. “I’m not really sure what all took place, but I got hit from behind.”

“Dive-bombing. It’s just so stupid. We’re not even racing for the win,” Hamlin said.

“That’s part of it, I guess. It’s just frustrating. At the end, guys just going for it.”

SMOKE GETS SMOKED Tony Stewart lost his Watkins Glen mojo – for one race.

Stewart, who had won four of the previous six races at The Glen and finished second the two times he didn’t win, never challenged for the lead in Sun-

day’s Cup race despite starting sixth.

Any chance for a late-race charge was derailed by some banging with road racer Boris Said coming out of the first turn of the 11-turn circuit.

“That idiot tried to run us straight off the racetrack,” Stewart yelled over his radio.

Said, who started 13th in the No. 83 Toyota and ran in the top 10 for most of the first half of the race, just shrugged in dismay.

“I guess he was just doing his deal and I was doing my deal and our deals collided,” Said said. “I didn’t know he was there. I don’t know if I could do anything else. It was a great car. I had so much fun. I just feel bad for these guys. They gave me wings, but I didn’t expect to be flying around in circles.”

Franchitti edges Power at Mid-Ohio LEXINGTON, Ohio (AP) – Dario Franchitti held off a hard-charging Will Power to win the IndyCar race at MidOhio on Sunday.

The victory was Franchitti’s second of the season. He won the Indy 500 in May. Franchitti beat Power out of the pits twice in the race, giving him just enough room to beat Power by 0.5234 seconds, the third-closest road/street finish in series history.

The victory helped Franchitti trim Power’s lead in the points standings to 41 with five races remaining. Power, who started from the pole for the seventh time this season, still easily clinched IndyCar’s first Road Course championship.

Helio Castroneves

was third, followed by Alex Tagliani and Scott Dixon.

The win Franchitti capped a big day for owner Chip Ganassi, who captured the NASCAR race at Watkins Glen earlier in the day with driver Juan Pablo Montoya. It marked the second time in three weeks Ganassi cars have taken the checkered flag in NASCAR and IndyCar on the same day.

The race featured zero passes for the lead under green and no penalties for blocking, leaving what little intrigue there was to pit road.

The victory was Franchitti’s 25th career open-wheel triumph.

Hunter Mahan holds the trophy after winning the Bridgestone Invitational golf tournament at Firestone Country Club on Sunday in Akron, Ohio.

Mahan surges to two-shot victory in WGC at Firestone THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

AKRON, Ohio – Hunter Mahan took a big step toward joining the elite in golf on Sunday, winning his first World Golf Championship title to lock up a spot on the U.S. Ryder Cup team.

Four shots behind to start the final round at Firestone, Mahan ran off five birdies on the front nine to take the lead, then had three clutch par saves down the stretch to finish off a 6-under 64 and a two-shot victory over Ryan Palmer.

It was the second victory this year for Mahan, and the $1.4 million he earned moved him to No. 2 in the Ryder Cup standings with only the PGA Championship remaining before the top eight Americans qualifying.

The battle for No. 1 was far less inspiring.

Tiger Woods will remain atop the world ranking for the 270th consecutive week, despite the worst tournament of his career. Woods closed with a 77 to finish at 18-over 298 – his highest score on the PGA Tour as a pro or an amateur – and finished one spot out of last place.

That cleared the way for Phil Mickelson to replace him at No. 1, provided Lefty finished in fourth place alone.

LUNDE RALLIES FOR TITLE VERONA, N.Y. – Bill Lunde rallied with a 6-under 66 to finish at 17-under 271, holding off J.J. Henry by one stroke to win the Turning Stone Resort Championship.

The win is the first for Lunde in his second full season on the PGA Tour. He vaulted into the lead with six birdies on the front nine and played even par for the last nine holes.

Lunde earned a spot in next week’s PGA Championship at Whistling Straits with the victory.

He also won $720,000 and picked up 250 FedEx Cup points.

Henry tied the course record with a 63 and finished second at 16 under. Jerry Kelly, Josh Teater, Michael Sim, Billy Mayfair and Alex Cejka tied for third place at 15 under. Cejka led after the second and third rounds, but shot 72 on Sunday.

GLADEVILLE, Tenn. (AP) – Todd Bodine just wants to win, whether it’s a close finish or he blows away the field.

Bodine dominated Saturday night at Nashville Superspeedway, leading 91 laps and earning his second victory of the season at the Nashville 200 NASCAR Camping World Truck Series race.

“We did (it) in the style of Germain Racing and just stomped them,” said Bodine, who led the last 88 laps.

Bodine extended his series lead over Aric Almirola to 174 points, but said the championship is by no means a given.

“We’ve just got to go out and keep doing what we’re doing,” he said. “We don’t (need) to worry about everybody else and we’ll be just fine. We just can’t make mistakes and put ourselves in a hole.”

Rookie Austin Dillon, the grandson of car owner Richard Childress, finished second, followed by Almirola.

Timothy Peters, who led 57 laps early before trouble with a tire after a pit stop, came in fourth.

It was the first career Champions Tour win for Frost, whose 25-under 191 was two shots better than the previous tournament scoring record set by R.W. Eaks in 2008.

His final-round score beat by one the tournament’s previous lowest round set by Dana Quigley in 2008.

Frost also tied the tour record of 25-under for a 54-hole tournament previously set by Loren Roberts at the 2006 MasterCard Championship at Hualalai and equaled by Bernhard Langer at the 2007 Administaff Small Business Classic.

Battling clammy hands in the heat and humidity, Mark Calcavecchia, tied with Frost for the lead after 36 holes, shot a 4-under 68, and finished second, five shots behind.

WINSTON-SALEM – L.W. Miller used a late pass of Burt Myers to claim the checkered flag in the Strutmasters.com 199 presented by 104.1 WTQR at Bowman Gray Stadium Saturday night.

It was the first NASCAR Whelen Southern Modified Tour win for Miller since April of 2008.

Myers finished second, followed by John Smith, Jason Myers and Andy Seuss.

Frank Fleming was sixth and Coors Light Pole Award winner Zach Brewer seventh.

Brandon Hire, Josh Nichols and Randy Butner rounded out the top 10.

Myers led a race-high

145 laps before Miller made a move on Lap 183 and passed him in Turn 3.

Miller’s previous best finish at Bowman Gray was second in 2006. The win allowed Miller to take over the points lead from James Civali, who finished 13th. Miller has 831 points, followed by Civali with 794 and Seuss with 792.

A replay of the Strutmasters.com 199 is scheduled to air on VERSUS on Wednesday, Aug. 18 at 7 p.m.

The NASCAR Whelen Southern Modified Tour will return to the track Wednesday, Aug. 18 for the annual combination race with the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour at Bristol Motor Speedway.

A 2010 Dodge Charger, used by the Oklahoma Highway Patrol, marks a closed country road near Kingfisher, Okla. Most of Chrysler’s gains this year came from sales to rental car companies, governments and other businesses, according to confidential data obtained by The Associated Press.

Chrysler reports higher sales, but problems lurk behind the numbers DETROIT (AP) – A year after getting billions of dollars in federal aid to stay in business, Chrysler now brags each month about growing sales, insisting it is rolling down the road to recovery.

But beneath the surface of those sales figures are troubling signs for Chrysler. The company has a long way to go before it is truly healthy again.

Most of Chrysler’s gains this year came from sales to rental car companies, governments and other businesses, according to confidential data obtained by The Associated Press. Everyday drivers have shunned its dated lineup.

A successful Chrysler is essential for the government because it is trying to get back the $15 billion in emergency loans it made to the company. Chrysler lost $197 million in the first quarter, and it’s expected to post a net

loss when it releases secondquarter results today.

Overall, Chrysler’s U.S. sales rose 12 percent from January through June compared with 2009.

But sales to individuals, known as retail, tumbled 21 percent, according to the industry data.

Retail sales are important because they generate bigger profits than sales to rental companies and other bulk buyers, known in the industry as fleet sales.

Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne said the company isn’t overly reliant on fleet sales, but he knows that sales to individuals must rise. He predicted retail sales would go up as new models hit showrooms.

“The fleet side will become less and less relevant. But it’s an important piece of the business,” he said last month.

Chrysler does not publicly

break down sales for different groups of buyers. It says that its retail sales are slowly growing from month to month.

Lack of enthusiasm for Chrysler cars and trucks is putting stress on its dealers, who are trying to hold on while the automaker overhauls its lineup. Its only new offering this year is the redesigned Jeep Grand Cherokee, although 16 new or updated models are coming soon.

While many dealers are happy with the Jeep, they say they need new products faster. Until those arrive, the automaker has little choice but to rack up sales to bulk buyers, said Erich Merkle, president of consulting company Autoconomy.com.

The carmaker will need to turn around its results if it wants to repay the government’s investment by selling shares to the public. A

stock sale isn’t expected until at least next year. Once Chrysler shares go public, the company would be owned by thousands of shareholders, although Fiat Group SpA, which the U.S. government put in charge, could become the largest shareholder.

Chrysler has yet to post a net profit since leaving bankruptcy protection in June of 2009.

But it made $143 million before interest and taxes in the first three months of this year. Marchionne said the only reason the company is not profitable is because it must pay interest on government loans.

But so far this year, Chrysler is the only major automaker to report a drop in retail sales, according to the confidential data.

Retail sales for the industry are up 11 percent, and they rose only 1 percent at General Motors Co.

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) – Ousted HewlettPackard Co. CEO Mark Hurd has settled allegations of sexual harassment lodged against him by a female contract worker for HP, a person with knowledge of the case told The Associated Press.

The harassment accusation set off a chain of events that led to the discovery of allegedly falsified expense reports for dinners Hurd had with the woman and culminated in Hurd’s forced resignation Friday from the world’s largest technology company.

The person familiar with the case told the AP late Satuday that Hurd agreed to pay the woman but would not reveal the size of the payment. The deal was reached Thursday, a day before Hurd’s resignation. The settlement was between Hurd and his accuser and did not involve a payment from HP, this person said.

This person, who spoke on a condition of anonymity, was not authorized to speak publicly about the issue.

The nature of the harassment complaint wasn’t clear. Hurd and a lawyer representing the woman said the relationship was not sexual.

The woman’s lawyer, celebrity attorney Gloria Allred, declined to describe the alleged harassment.

Allred would not identify her client or make her available for an interview.

The woman was paid up to $5,000 per event to greet people and make introductions among executives attending HP events that she helped organize.

Small caps losing their edge over blue chips CHICAGO (AP) – Could David be losing his historical edge over Goliath in the stock market?

Investors are starting to wonder.

Small-cap stocks have lost their sizzle in recent months, falling 12 percent and underperforming blue chips since the market’s powerful 13-month rally ended in April.

Such price swings are hardly unusual, and that’s only part of the evidence that suggests their latest run of dominance over large-company stocks is ending. Some experts contend they are as overpriced as they’ve

DILBERT

been in three decades.

A new study by BNY Mellon Beta Management highlights small caps’ vulnerability. Investors, the study found, are no longer compensated for the extra risks they take buying small stocks.

“Right now there’s no benefit to investing in small caps versus large caps,” says Mark Keleher, CEO of the San Francisco-based investment firm. “The optimum time to invest in small caps may have passed.”

Investors apparently are reaching the same conclusion.

U.S. small-cap funds

saw outflows of $822 million for the week that ended Wednesday, according to EPFR Global, a Boston-based firm that tracks global fund flow data. That tipped fund flows into negative territory for 2010. Less than four months after the year-to-date total reached $6.3 billion in inflows, it is now at $689.8 million in outflows.

Melissa Wedel, a research analyst at Litman/Gregory Asset Management in Orinda, Calif., has noticed a flight to higher-quality blue chip stocks from small caps among fund managers.

“Small caps are not an area one would want to be in too heavily right now,” she says, citing their comparatively higher valuations.

But the notion of small caps as laggards runs counter to what every student of investing learns early on. Small stocks as a group have outperformed large ones for at least three-quarters of a century.

Small-cap stocks, or those with market capitalizations between $160 million and $2 billion, have netted investors an average 2 percent higher annualized returns than

IPhone exec leaves Apple CUPERTINO, California (AP) – An Apple Inc. executive whose responsibilities include iPhone hardware is leaving the company in the wake of antenna problems with the newest version of the smart phone.

Apple was forced to offer a free fix after consumers complained and numerous media outlets reported a problem with dropped calls.

Mark Papermaster, Apple’s senior vice president of iPhone and iPod hard-

ware engineering, is leaving the company, according to Apple spokesman Steve Dowling. He wouldn’t comment beyond a brief statement or say whether Papermaster was fired or is leaving voluntarily.

BP: Crews ready for final phase of relief well

AP

In this image made from APTN video, a tornado destroys a structure in rural Wilkin County, Minn., Saturday.

Storms spawn tornadoes in North Dakota, Minnesota GRAND FORKS, N.D. (AP) – Strong storms spawned several tornadoes that touched down in southeast North Dakota and western Minnesota Saturday, including one that appeared to have struck a farm house. No injuries appear to have been reported.

A video shot by a storm chaser showed a tornado touching down near a farm house in Wilkin Coun-

ty, Minn., and debris flying into the air as the funnel tore into the building. The home destroyed in the video was near the tiny community of Campbell, Minn., according to a dispatcher with the Wilkin County Sheriff. But the owner, Al Kosel, 76, and his family weren’t home, and there were no injuries, she said.

The storms started in North Dakota and moved east into Minnesota,

said Tom Grafenauer, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service office in Grand Forks. Touchdowns were reported between about 6:15 p.m. and 7 p.m. near Tyler, N.D.; Tenney, Minn.; and Fergus Falls, Minn. “Most of this action was in Minnesota,” Grafenauer said.

One tornado appeared to be on the ground for 20 or 30 minutes, he said.

THERIOT, La. (AP) – Boats were bedecked with fluttering red, white and blue streamers and rainbows of balloons in a bayou-country, pre-shrimp season tradition known as the “Blessing of the Boats.”

On the menu? Barbecued chicken, smoked sausage and potato salad – but no crabs or shrimp.

Blame the BP oil spill. The company has plugged the leak and announced Sunday cement sealing the busted well in the Gulf of Mexico had hardened, clearing the path for the final phase of drilling a relief well.

Meanwhile, the government’s point man overseeing BP’s response to the spill gives the company high marks for its engineering response, but low marks in dealing with people.

Speaking Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union,” retired Coast Guard Adm. Thad Allen says he isn’t sure any oil company could have done more to cap the spill once it happened.

But Allen says that BP was too big of a company to immediately deal with the problems the spill caused individuals along the coast.

Wildfire chars 15 acres north of Los Angeles SANTA CLARITA, Calif. (AP) – Crews are protecting homes near a wildfire that has charred 15 acres of dry brush north of Los Angeles.

Los Angeles County Fire Inspector Frederic Stowers says the blaze came close to houses Sunday in northern Santa Clarita, but struc-

tures are no longer threatened. He says the fire is moving north away from neighborhoods and into the Los Padres National Forest.

Stowers says at least 150 firefighters are on the scene, with a number of them devoted to structure protection.

No evacuations have been ordered.

US immigrant’s dream ends with genocide allegation CONCORD, N.H. (AP) – Beatrice Munyenyezi brought her three daughters to the United States from war-ravaged Rwanda in 1998 and focused on the American Dream: private schooling for her girls, a home with a swimming pool, a sport utility vehicle.

Before long, she had a $13-an-hour job at Manchester’s Housing Authority in New Hampshire, her children were enrolled in Catholic school, and she was on her way to financing a comfortable

American lifestyle through mortgages, loans and credit cards.

Now the 40-year-old mother sits behind bars, held without bond while she awaits trial on federal citizenship fraud charges for allegedly lying about involvement in the 1994 Rwandan genocide, when at least 500,000 ethnic Tutsis and moderate Hutus were killed.

Authorities say she was an extremist Hutu who killed and enabled the rapes of untold Tutsi victims – not the inno-

cent refugee she claimed to be in 1995 to gain U.S. entry, when she applied for a visa and for citizenship.

Munyenyezi has pleaded not guilty to two counts of lying to obtain U.S. citizenship on her refugee and naturalization applications, by denying any role in the Rwanda genocide. She is scheduled for trial in May 2011.

Her dream life apparently ended, it started falling apart years earlier. She filed for bankruptcy in May 2008, walk-

ing away from hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt: a $222,000 mortgage, $14,125 in student loans, $4,198 in municipal taxes and fees and $30,000 in credit card and other unsecured debt.

“She lived here for probably two years without paying her mortgage; she didn’t pay her bills for a good two years,” said Tom Prince of Manchester, who lived across the street from Munyenezi. “We all feel she took advantage.”
