TRIAD – An overnight set of storms that produced thousands of lightning strikes and downpours of rain also contributed to a traffic fatality in southern Davidson County. A motorist from Florida died in a one-car accident along Interstate 85 near Lexington early Thursday morning. The rainy conditions contributed to the accident, reports the Lexington office of the N.C. State Highway Patrol. Michael Katsulis, 49, of Tarpon Springs, Fla., wasn’t wearing a seat belt when his vehicle went off the interstate and down an embankment, WXII 12 News reports. The fatality was the most serious outcome of a ferocious series of thunderstorms that sliced through the Piedmont late Wednesday and early Thursday. Summer thunderstorms typically strike in the late afternoon or early evening, though storms timed as the one Wednesday night and Thursday morning do

The typical seasonal weather pattern that’s been in place for most of this summer should continue in the High Point area into early next week, though high temperatures shouldn’t be as extreme. Highs should range from around 90 to the mid-80s through the first part of next week, with overnight lows in the low to mid-70s. So far this year the Triad has recorded 48 days with a high temperature at or above 90 degrees. The normal total for a year is 29. SOURCE: WXII 12 NEWS, MSN.COM WEATHER

Shooting suspects face additional charges BY PAT KIMBROUGH ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – Authorities have brought additional charges against two men already in jail in connection with a double shooting inside a south High Point store in May. Jerome Alphonso Gholson and Dominique Alexander Williams appeared in Guilford County District Court Thursday after they were charged earlier this week with two counts each of conspiracy to commit attempted first-

degree murder. Both men appeared via video from the Guilford County Jail in High Point, where they have been since the days following the May 7 shooting at Family Dollar on S. Main Street. A man in line at the

front of the store was shot in the left elbow and left side of his body after a confrontation with one of the suspects, who allegedly took out a handgun and opened fire following an argument. A bystander who was shopping at the store was struck in the knee by one of the shots. Both victims have since recovered. Prosecutors have said the shooting may have stemmed from a dispute Gholson had with one of the victims. Gholson, 21, of Friddle

Drive, and Williams, 24, of Scientific Street, were apprehended a week after the shooting and charged with two counts of attempted murder and assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill inflicting serious injury. Court officials said the conspiracy charges against Gholson came after an indictment handed up by the Guilford County Grand Jury. The charges brought his total bond to $510,000. Williams also was charged with possession

of a firearm by a felon in June. His bond now stands at $520,000. After explaining the suspects’ new charges to them, a judge at Thursday’s proceeding agreed to provide them with courtappointed attorneys. A third person also faces attempted murder and aggravated assault charges in the case. April Yvette Patterson, 32, is free on bond, and records show she has a court date next week.

Trinity rejects sign proposal BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

SONNY HEDGECOCK | HPE

Sign greets motorists entering Trinity on N.C. 62 going south toward Thomasville.

TRINITY – A proposal to replace the signs recognizing the Trinity High School 2004 state championship basketball team with anti-litter signs has been shot down by the Trinity City Council. City staff this week presented members with two options for the signs welcoming motorists to Trinity. The first option was to add a phrase, such as “keep Trinity clean,” on the top sign. The second option, which was criticized by most of the City Council members, was to replace the second sign that recognizes the basketball team and present it to the school or coach. “Have you lost your mind?” Councilman

Kelly Grooms said after hearing the proposal. “Come on now ... You try to keep your people here and your young folks. They ride by there and see that 2004. That may be the only thing that keeps them around.” “Why don’t we replace the top one and add the ‘do not litter?’ ” Councilman Robbie Sikes said. Councilman Barry Lambeth agreed with Grooms on the sign recognizing the basketball team. He suggested if the council replaced the top sign, it should put it out for bid. “Somebody will come through and say, ‘Hey, my grandson was on that team,’ ” Lambeth said. “I think we should leave it up until we win the next one.” Not all council members

were against replacing the basketball sign. “I thought that was a good idea,” Councilwoman Karen Bridges said. Bridges said it has been several years since the team won the championship, and it would be a “pretty good idea” to present the sign to the school. Mayor Carlton Boyles said Thursday the proposal to replace both signs is “dead.” He said staff is going to contact the N.C. Department of Transportation to see if the city can place no litter signs on direction signs or speed limit signs in the city. “I don’t think council is very appreciative of taking down the entrance sign and putting up a no litter sign,” Boyles said. dignasiak@hpe.com | 888-3657

Qubein, Smothers endorse Bruce Davis’ Senate bid BY PAUL B. JOHNSON ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

GUILFORD COUNTY – State legislative hopeful Bruce Davis of High Point has enlisted some notable city leaders to endorse his unaffiliated bid for the 28th State Senate District. Mayor Becky Smothers and High Point University President Nido Qubein signed an endorsement letter mailed recently by the Davis campaign. Davis, a longtime Democratic Guilford County commissioner, submitted enough petition signatures in June to the Guilford County Board of Elections to gain an unaffiliated spot on the Nov. 2 general election ballot. The endorsement letter signed by Qubein, Smothers and two prominent local businessmen, Robert “Bob” Brown and Ed Price,

praises Davis for his support of the High Point Market and creation of Davis a positive business climate. “He believes that there are workable solutions available that will enhance us greatly,” the letter states. Davis is taking on Democratic Party nominee Gladys Robinson of Pleasant Garden and Republican nominee Trudy Wade, a Greensboro city councilwoman. The winner will take the 28th State Senate District seat being vacated after this year by retiring Sen. Katie Dorsett, D-Guilford. Davis launched his petition campaign in early March after Dorsett first filed for re-election, then withdrew just before the candidate filing period ended at noon Feb. 28. Davis said he would have

The 28th State Senate District, which has a high proportion of registered Democratic voters, includes parts of High Point, Greensboro and southern Guilford County. Sen. Katie Dorsett, D-Guilford, who has held the seat since 2002, is retiring after this year. The candidates on the Nov. 2 general election ballot are Democratic nominee Gladys Robinson of Pleasant Garden, Republican Trudy Wade of Greensboro and unaffiliated candidate Bruce Davis of High Point. Davis will be on the ballot twice because of a littleused provision of state election law. Davis is unopposed as a Democrat for his Guilford County Board of Commissioners seat, then gathered enough petition signatures to file separately as an unaffiliated candidate in the 28th State Senate District.

filed for the 28th State Senate District race in February had he known Dorsett would retire. Dorsett handily defeated Davis in the Democratic primary for the Senate seat two years ago. Analysts say Davis faces an uphill battle, since

unaffiliated candidates rarely win general election contests in partisan races and must contend against straight-party ticket voting that accrues to Democratic and Republican candidates. pjohnson@hpe.com | 888-3528

Former Marine Cesar Laurean listens to opening statements during his murder trial at the Wayne County Courthouse in Goldsboro on Thursday. Laurean faces charges of first-degree murder in the death of 20-year-old Lance Cpl. Maria Lauterbach of Vandalia, Ohio in 2007.

Lawyers vary on contact between Marine, suspect GOLDSBORO (AP) – A prosecutor on Thursday in the trial of a man charged with killing a pregnant fellow Marine challenged the defense’s characterization of the victim as someone who was immature and had a history of lying. Cesar Laurean, 23, of Las Vegas has pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder in the slaying of Lance Cpl. Maria Lauterbach, 20, of Vandalia, Ohio, in December 2007. Both were stationed at

Camp Lejeune and Lauterbach’s remains were discovered under his backyard firepit in January 2008. District Attorney Dewey Hudson challenged Dick McNeil’s description of Lauterbach. Besides saying she had a history of theft and lying, McNeil said she was under increased pressure from her mother who wanted her to give up her child for adoption. “This is a murder case. How is it possibly rel-

order requiring they stay apart. McNeil tried poking holes in the picture of two Marines who maintained contact anyway. Store clerk Pamela Chavis said she saw the two shopping for a Christmas gift at Camp Lejeune’s on-base department store days before Lauterbach disappeared. Laurean asked her opinion about crystal that his grandmother might like, so Chavis said she suggested he ask his wife’s opinion.

Robber takes cash, apologizes WATKINSVILLE, Ga. (AP) – Sheriff’s deputies in Georgia say an armed robber emptied the cash register at a video store, then told the clerk he had a drug problem and was sorry for the stickup. The suspect fled toward a couple of schools Wednesday morning in

the town of Watkinsville, about 60 miles east of Atlanta. The schools were briefly locked down. Vision Video clerk Zach Henderson says he was talking on his cell phone at the store when he walked out of a back room and was confronted by the rob-

The most dramatic aspect of the storm was the intensity of lightning strikes. At its height, the storm was causing up to 1,000 to 1,500 lightning strikes per hour in the Triad, Vincent said.

A Pakistani flood-affected woman welcomes other family members being rescued in Muzaffargarh near Multan, Pakistan, on Thursday. Spokesman Maurizio Giuliano said U.N. officials roughly estimated that up to one-fourth of the country is or had been affected by the floods, though those areas were not necessarily under water.

The government has been sharply criticized for a slow and patchy response to the floods, which has killed 1,500 people left and left an estimated 7 million people needing emergency assistance, their homes

destroyed, damaged or inundated with muddy water and unlivable. President Asif Ali Zardari made his first visit to victims of the disaster on Thursday, according to state-run Pakistan Television that gave few details.

SOHBATPUR, Pakistan (AP) – A shipload of U.S. Marines and helicopters arrived to boost relief efforts in flooded Pakistan on Thursday, but the prime minister told The Associated Press his country needs more international help to cope with one of the worst natural disasters in its history. The United Nations warned the crisis was far from over, saying dams in Sindh province could still burst in the coming days. More rain fell around the country, and monsoon season is forecast to last several weeks still.

That extraordinary disclosure, which laid bare classified military documents covering the war in Afghanistan from 2004 to 2010, has angered U.S. officials, drawn the attention of the Taliban, and energized critics of the NATO-led campaign. The U.S. military has accused WikiLeaks of endangering the lives of soldiers.

LONDON (AP) – WikiLeaks spokesman Julian Assange said Thursday his organization is preparing to release the rest of the secret Afghan war documents it has on file. The Pentagon warned that would be even more damaging than the organization’s initial release of some 76,000 war files.

Change gave us world’s largest furnishings market There are several points in Lois White’s letter of Aug. 8 (“High Point needs changes in its elected leaders”) that require a response. First, she questions again the value of the High Point Market and calls for a rebuilding of downtown. She contends that “change is what the city needs.” Change is what happened to downtown. Downtown was once a combination of retail, banking, offices and other uses. The people who owned the property made the decisions to change downtown because their property was more valuable as showroom space and a hotel. So, we have a center of town that is dominated by the world’s largest home furnishings display area. We are very fortunate to have a strong, international High Point Market. Second point is that we are acutely aware of the changes in retail buying patterns. Oak Hollow Mall is under contract to a new owner. We must do what we can to make Oak Hollow Mall a retail success. That means shop in High Point. I encourage everyone to support High Point merchants throughout the city. My last point is that White is

entitled to applaud Sanders Dallas III’s group. Maybe she might be willing to tell us who they are. I and others want to know their ideas because no details have been revealed of the “change” they demand. We do know that Dallas wants to make a profit on his properties as well as have some sympathetic ears on City Council. Self-interest becomes suspect when it appears to be the sole interest. His concern and interest in High Point would be more believable if he lived in High Point and not in a distant city. REBECCA R. SMOTHERS High Point The writer is mayor of High Point.

Church fathers give good view of early Christianity In response to Bill Moore (Your View, Aug. 6, “Proper research shows Christ is church’s foundation”): Christ is called the “cornerstone” in New Testament and

“the Church is the pillar and foundation of truth” (1 Timothy 3:15). We must also remember that the Bible comes to us through the Church, and that the Church comes to us from Christ, not from the Bible. Peter is never called the “cornerstone” and 1 Peter 2:6 is recalling that Christ is always the reference point, which is what a cornerstone is to a builder. Moore says not once did anyone refer to Peter as a rock in the Bible. Well Christ did, when he renamed Simon, in John 1:42, Cephas, which means Rock. We know that Paul went to see Peter right after his conversion (Galatians 1:18) and several other times. It’s always Peter and the Apostles, Peter is called the Chief Apostle, Christ’s flock is entrusted to Peter (John 21:17) It is correct that the writings of the Church fathers must not be viewed as equal to Scripture. Individually, they can and sometimes do miss the mark, but taken collectively when dozens and dozens of them, over hundreds of years, essentially say the

same thing, it gives us a good picture of what the early Christians believed. We know that there are at least two undisputed lists of the first bishops of Rome each beginning with Peter, one being Eusebius. There is also a stone tile uncovered at Rome listing the first bishops of Rome beginning with, you guessed it, Peter! We are told several times the Apostles left bishops in every city where they established churches. Scripture tells us that this ordination is from one bishop to another by the laying on of hands (1 Timothy 4:14). We know today many diocese are headed by a single bishop, assisted by a presbyteral council, as was evidenced in Rome in the early centuries. RICH POHLMAN, SFO High Point TOFTAU@yahoo.com

Thomasville tackles aging sewer system

here was more good news out of the N.C. Department of Transportation last week. DOT began advertising the contract for work along Interstate 85 in southern Davidson County accompanying the replacement of the 55-year-old Yadkin River bridge, for which construction is scheduled to begin this fall. DOT plans call for work on 3.6 miles of the interstate and reconstructing interchanges at an expected cost of up to $130 million. Phase 2 includes constructing and widening I-85 from north of N.C. 150 to just north of I-85 Business Loop and reconstruction of the Belmont Road interchange. This work is important for improving that section of I-85, and for safety’s sake, the Yadkin River bridge replacement project must move along as swiftly as possible.

YOUR VIEW POLL

OUR VIEW

year ago after a large sewage spill in Thomasville, we chastised city officials for not being as attentive to potential problems with an aging wastewater collection system as they perhaps should have been. Today, we praise those officials for taking charge of the situation, addressing the problem on an emergency and short-term basis and then preparing a plan of attack to address the longterm viability of Thomasville’s sewer system. The city’s moves are positive from an environmental and from an economic standpoint. Certainly, a city can’t allow untreated wastewater to escape, potentially damaging the environment. But having a sound sewer system with expansion capability is the most important piece of an economic development strategy that a city Thomasville’s size can have. Improvements that have been made and that are planned will not be cheap, but the alternative to not taking these actions would be more costly to Thomasville and its residents in the long-run. Although questions linger about the size of the spill (and we may never know exactly), at least no significant environmental damage seems to have occurred in the short-term, and we hope that remains true for the long-term. But we’re glad to see that Thomasville leaders – instead of making excuses – took it upon themselves to get on with addressing the problems the city confronted.

We have a Marine Corps League chapter here in High Point and a chapter in Greensboro. The Marine Corps League was founded in 1923. It perpetuates the traditions and spirit of all Marines and FMF Corpsmen who proudly wear or who have worn the eagle, globe and anchor of the Corps. The founding of the Marine Corps League is credited to Maj. Gen. Commandant John A. Lejeune. There are many programs sponsored by the League. To name a few: Marines Helping Marines, U.S. Marines Youth Physical Fitness Program & Scholarship Program. We have a great organization here in High Point, the Pfc. Terry C. Smith Detachment 1193. Our meetings are the last Thursday in the month at the American Legion building on W. High Avenue. The meeting begins at 1900; doors open at 1800. For information, call Tom Richardson at 803-1029. The Public Relations Society of America has awarded the Disabled American Veterans the top Silver Anvil Award for Public Affairs for their successful veterans public outreach program – Stand Up For Veterans, They Stood Up for Us. This program helped win passage of vital legislation, including the Veterans Health Care Budget Reform and Transparency Act and the Caregiver and Veterans Omnibus Health Services Act. This is a tremendous benefit for all veterans. This budget reform authorizes Congress to approve medical care appropriations for Department of Veterans Affairs health care one year in advance at the start of each fiscal year. Perhaps many of you did not know that the VA was constantly running out of money to operate with because funds were being held up along the way for one reason or another. During the last several years, this has created a backlog of claims for disability, and

the VA health clinics were forced to work with old medical equipment. Many times they could not give veterans medicines they needed, but one that happened to be on the shelve. I have always felt this was a very poor way to VETERAN’S take care of veterans health needs, so I am extremely VIEWS proud this advance-funding bill was approved. I don’t Stan see how we could continue Spangle Sr. to take care of the returning ■■■ wounded veterans with the old way of funding. Did you know that veterans now have a 24/7 online access to VA? You can now update the status of your personal health record, refill your VA prescriptions online, check on your appointment time at www. myhealth.va.gov. This is an outstanding method for most veterans. Even if you don’t personally use the computer, no doubt someone in your family does and they can take care of this for you. Most veterans know who Sen. Jim Webb is. If not, he is a combat veteran of the Vietnam War, a Marine, who is a U.S. senator from Virginia. I am reading his book “A Time to Fight, Reclaiming a Fair and Just America.” I highly recommend this book; I think you will enjoy reading his thoughts about where we are in America today and what he says we need to do. I leave you with the following things to remember: Watch our thoughts; they become words. Watch our words; they become actions. Watch our actions; they become habits. Watch our habits; they become character. Watch our character; for character will become our destiny. God Bless America and all the other nations. Semper Fi. STAN SPANGLE SR. is a 21-year veteran of the Marine Corps, serving in Korea and Vietnam. He’s a member of numerous veterans organizations.

Stabbing spree suspect arrested ATLANTA (AP) – Elias Abuelazam was about to board a plane for Israel when police arrested him in connection with a threemonth stabbing spree that left five men dead, 13 others wounded and a Michigan Abuelazam city in terror. In the moments before the bald, pudgy man in flip-flops and shorts was handcuffed, passengers saw him nervously talking on his cell phone, insisting he wasn’t violent. The Israeli citizen and legal U.S. resident was charged Thursday in just one case out of Flint, Mich., the battered industrial city where most of the stabbings occurred, but authorities

Behind the scenes of law enforcement HIGH POINT – Anyone who’s never been able to get enough of the world of detectives, crime scene investigations and other aspects of law enforcement will have a unique opportunity to indulge their interest this fall. The Guilford County Sheriff’s Office will begin its fall Citizen’s Academy later this month. The program is organized into weekly sessions that meet until early December. The sessions involve a combination of classroom discussions and hands-on exercises. The classes aren’t taken for credit and participants aren’t graded, although, historically, some of the people who have enrolled in the academy are interested in pursuing a law enforcement career. Others who typically take part include retirees, businesspeople and others who are sim-

ply curious about the subject matter covered in the program. Organizers have structured the academy to run the gamut of topics, with experts conducting the sessions on specific as-

Sheriff’s officials have designed the program to address basic questions about what the sheriff’s office does from the perspective of a layperson. Examples of such questions

include: Why do sworn officers of the law carry guns and when are they legally used? How does a jail function? Exactly what kind of force may be used to restrain a criminal on the street and why? When a caller dials 911, what chain of events is put in motion, mostly unknown to the caller? What responsibilities does a sheriff’s office have that a police department may not? There is no cost for the academy, which is open to the public. Space is limited and the deadline for enrollment is Aug. 23. The classes are held at the sheriff’s office Otto Zenke building, 400 W. Washington St., Greensboro, on Thursday nights from 6:30 to 9:30, with lab sessions held on four Saturday mornings. Classes begin Aug. 26 and run through Dec. 2.

New bullying policy covers schools staff BY DAVID NIVENS ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

GUILFORD COUNTY – As national leaders turned their attention this week to bullying in schools, some school districts are extending policies to cover staff. Guilford County Schools will begin the new school year with a new antibullying staff policy the Board of Education approved this week. For Superintendent Mo Green, the staff policy bolsters the district’s character development and respectful and responsive

Problem: A new report from the National Center for Education Statistics shows just under a third of students ages 12 to 18 say they have been bullied in school.

want to see in others, and that includes the adults as well as the children and young people we serve. If we want others to treat us with respect, we need to treat them with respect

first.” The policy prohibits any employee from “harassing, bullying or discriminating against any person,” and directs staff to report such behavior. The policy also directs employees to adhere to the behavior standards and professional code of ethics established by board policy and outlined in the personnel handbook, as well as any and all applicable local, state and federal laws. The adopted policy acknowledges the “dignity and worth of all employees” and the importance of creating a “safe, posi-

UNC changes health insurance over abortion

AP

History Workshop’s Carol Poplin and Franck LeGrand install the new exhibits in the Railroad Depot in Aiken, S.C. The second level of the railroad depot serves as a museum with interactive displays that share the history of the railroads in the City of Aiken, Aiken County and South Carolina. Storytelling phones and televisions that will show a variety of historic video have been placed along the powder blue walls on the second floor.

SC railroad museum makes progress AIKEN, S.C. (AP) – The progress at the Aiken Railroad Depot is chugging along as new exhibits are installed. The second level of the railroad depot serves as a museum with interactive displays that share the history of the railroads in the City of Aiken, Aiken County and South Carolina. Storytelling phones and televisions that will show a variety of historic video have been placed along the powder blue walls on the second floor. Panels containing photos and literature share a plethora of historic information. The top of the walls are painted with an aerial view of the railroad from Charleston to the former town of Hamburg. “The exhibits are wonderful, and I think folks will find them educational and entertaining to adults and youth alike,� said All Aboard

Chairman Tim Simmons. Carol Poplin, senior project manager with the History Workshop located in Mt. Pleasant, was at the depot installing the exhibits. She said it was exciting to see everything come together in the past year and a half that the workshop has been involved. “This is the part we’ve been waiting for - to see if it all fits,� she said. Detailed dioramas depicting eight towns that the Southern Railroad passed through in 1916 sit behind glass cases. The towns include Charleston, Summerville, St. George, Branchville, Denmark, Blackville, Aiken and Hamburg. The dioramas were built by Custom Model Railroads located in Baltimore with the assistance of an Aiken Railroad Depot committee, which conducted research and studied photographs from 1916.

“The dioramas really are amazingly accurate,� said Poplin. “I’ve been terribly impressed by the committee - how dedicated they are, how enthusiastic they are. They have been a pleasure to work with.� The dioramas took about two years to complete, and the train moves throughout each one. Poplin said that the dioramas will hopefully intrigue children and act as a visual learning tool. Simmons said that the project’s progress signifies more than 10 years of careful planning and hard work. “It’s a lot of satisfaction - a lot of folks have worked hard on this project,� Simmons said. “It’s great to see the visible signs of all that effort.� Stephen Delaney Hale, a publicity chairman of the depot, said that though the grand opening is scheduled for Sept. 18, the depot could open in about six weeks.

Dog owners ignore warnings of girl’s allergy

D

ear Abby: My 6year-old daughter, “Meg,� has severe eczema. She’s highly allergic to a long list of things, including dogs. Recently, at a basketball court and at an outdoor restaurant, we encountered some dog owners who refused to pull their dogs back after I informed them about her allergy. Both said, “It’s a public place!� as if my daughter should not be in public. One man even argued that my child “couldn’t possibly� be allergic to his poodle. I take my children out in public often, and I never allow them to touch other people. Why can’t dog owners understand the concept? Other than avoiding public areas that are dog friendly, and pulling my daughter away whenever she’s touched by a dog, what can I do? – Mom Knows Best, Irvine, Calif. Dear Mom: The idea that dog owners would fail to pull their animals back after being told someone was highly allergic shocks me. However, because you can’t make everyone behave responsibly, you will have to “dog proof� your daughter. t 6, she’s old enough to understand the reason she’s broken out and itching is because she came in contact with one of the things to which she is allergic. Teach her to stay out of reach and to announce loudly, “Please hold your dog

back! I’m allergic!� when the situation calls for it. And if you are with her and see ADVICE someone with an Dear animal Abby approach, ■■■YOU should take the initiative and say emphatically, “My daughter is highly allergic to dogs. PLEASE keep it away from my child!� And while I’m at it, no child – or adult – should ever touch a strange dog without the owner’s permission because you never know how the animal might react. Dear Abby: I work at the front desk of a construction company. My work area is located in the lobby. I’m responsible for greeting visitors, answering the phone, typing letters and other administrative tasks. The only thing separating me from the visitors is a 12-inch-high counter that surrounds my desk. Quite often, visitors must wait several minutes for the person they’re seeing to come to the lobby. When they do, they often plant both arms on the counter, drape themselves over the top and scan every piece of paper on the surface of my desk, including what’s showing on my computer screen. They also try to converse

with me while I’m trying to work and answer the phone. I find this rude, inappropriate and an invasion of my personal work space. How can I convey this to visitors without coming across as rude and jeopardizing the company’s relationship with them? Desk modifications are not an option. – Biting My Tongue in Upstate New York

backed plan, whose premiums range from $610 to $750 per year, tacked on to tuition. Students for Life of America, which trains and works with more than 500 campus groups nationwide, started a petition drive this week demanding the board remove the abortion provision. Group Executive Director Kristan Hawkins said in an interview that students opposed to abortion shouldn’t be required to pay for coverage that runs counter to their beliefs. Eleven campuses already had a policy last year requiring proof or purchase of insurance in order to enroll. The other five had voluntary plans. All but one school – North Carolina Central University in Durham – included the elective abortion coverage last year, Worthington said.

Dear Biting Your Tongue: Ask your boss how sensitive the correspondence you are handling is, and explain that it is being viewed by clients who walk in. Some offices handle the problem by keeping documents face down when they are not being worked on. Also, consider tilting your computer monitor and installing a privacy screen to block the view. Because client relations is part of your job description, do not allow your annoyance at chatty clients to show. Smile and say, “I’d love to talk, but I have a ton of work I have to finish. Would you like a magazine-newspaper-water while you wait?� If that doesn’t do the trick, find out from your boss which of your tasks takes precedence.

RALEIGH (AP) – The University of North Carolina will allow students to delete coverage for elective abortions from their school-sponsored health insurance policies after an anti-abortion group said it would force them to choose between a college education and their consciences. UNC system President Erskine Bowles on Thursday directed a student insurance company to contact students who have bought a policy this fall and give them the chance to opt out of that coverage, system spokeswoman Joni Worthington said. The UNC Board of Governors decided last summer to require about 200,000 students on its 16 campuses this fall to have health insurance. The coverage can be private or government-backed or through a university-

higher. The better the weed is growing, the more weed killer will be moved from the leaves to the roots. Cold temperatures will slow or stop this process. Of course, the most effective method of controlling lawn weeds is to maintain a dense and vigorously growing turf cover. Weeds grow well in open spaces where there is minimal competition from turf grasses. With proper maintenance, you can help your lawn out-compete weeds for light, nutrients and water. Weeds are often an indication of problems in the grass plant environment, and killing the weeds without correcting the underlying problem will lead to unsatisfactory results. For example, a problem with knotweed and this time of year chickweed is usually an indication of severe soil compaction. Control of these weeds without correction of the soil compaction will only lead to sparse soil cover until the area is again invaded by weeds that grow in compacted soil. If white clover is your problem, it might well be you are mowing too close. Often turf weeds can be controlled simply by altering the cultural practices to favor the grass plants rather than the weeds. The cultural controls may include raising (or lowering) the mowing height, changing the frequency of mowing, lengthening (or shortening) the period between irrigations, increasing (or decreasing) the application of fertilizer, or aerating the soil. When a few weeds do appear, hand digging will save time and money and is certainly healthier for the environment than herbicide treatments.

Today’s Bible question: In Noah’s time, when God saw the wickedness of man, what did He resolve to do?

Answers: Lawn weeds can be conveniently divided into two classes: broadleaf or grasses. Weedy grasses and broadleaf weeds are further divided into groups according to the plants’ length of life. Perennial weeds have a life of more than two years, though new seeds may be produced every year. Biennial weeds have a life of two years, generally storing food reserves in the leaves and roots the first year and producing seed in the second year. The biennial weeds often are grouped with perennial weeds since control is similar. Annual weeds germinate from seed, grow, flower and produce seed in less than one year. Summer annuals germinate in the spring and mature in the fall, whereas winter annuals germinate in fall or late winter and mature in late spring. It is probably the winter annuals that you are seeing right now. Effective control of weeds in turf is based on correct identification. Many books and charts are available to help in identifying common lawn weeds, or you can bring weed samples into the extension office for identification. At this time of year, the winter annual weeds such as henbit, bitter crest and the dreaded chickweed are really taking off in those thin areas of turf. These broadleaf weeds are easily controlled with herbicides such as 2,4D or combination products (Trimec, Bayer’s Broadleaf weed killer, WeedB-Gon, Weed-Out) that contain 2,4-D, MCPP and Dicamba. They are actively moving materials from the top portion of the plant to the roots. The only problem is they more than likely have set seed, and you will need to spray next fall or early winter when they germinate. Be sure to choose a day that is 50 degrees or

Mighty mite produces mighty itch

D

ear Dr. Donohue: For all practical purposes, I have gone underground. I am a recluse. I have scabies and don’t want anyone to know. I can’t imagine where I picked it up. I find all this immensely embarrassing. Please provide some details on this. I have taken the treatment, but I still itch. Itching is another thing that keeps me from socializing. It’s fierce. Does this continued itch mean I am not cured? – H.M.

BLONDIE

B.C.

Scabies isn’t something you should be ashamed of. It happens to all people, in all social strata and in all countries throughout the world. More than 300 million inhabitants of Earth contract it every year. It’s extremely common. The condition is transmitted through a mite. Mites belong to the same class of insects as spiders. Mites are so small that you need a magnifying glass to see them. When the female mite finds her way onto human skin, she digs a burrow, where she lays her eggs. The burrow is small too. It might be seen as a straight or wavy red or gray line. Places where the mite likes to settle down are the finger webs (the skin between adjacent fingers), the wrists, elbows, under the arms, the female breast, buttocks and genitals. The princi-

pal sign of infestation is intense itching that worsens at night. No other HEALTH illnesses are known Dr. Paul to be Donohue spread by ■■■ the scabies mite. People often ask if AIDS can be caught from a scabies mite bite. The answer is no. A number of medicines rid people of the scabies mite. Permethrin cream 5 percent (Nix, Elimite) is quite effective. Crotamiton (Eurax) is another reliable preparation. Ivermectin (Stromectol) comes as an oral medicine or as a lotion. It, too, gets good results. Itching frequently continues for a week or two after the mite has been eliminated. It’s an allergic response. An antihistamine such as Benadryl can reduce its intensity. So can cortisone creams and gels. Dear Dr. Donohue: For three months I suffered from pain in my right hip. The cause is osteonecrosis. When the pain started, I had hip X-rays, but they didn’t show any changes to suggest it. Right now I am on crutches while doctors are trying to determine what is the best treatment for me. What do you recommend? I am a woman and only

35 years old. – G.L. Osteonecrosis (“osteo” is “bone”; “necrosis” is “death”) also goes by the names aseptic necrosis and avascular necrosis. The blood supply to a portion of bone suddenly cuts off, and the involved bone dies. Quite often, the hip is the bone targeted. What sets this process in motion can’t always be discovered. Sometimes it results from another illness, like lupus or sickle cell anemia. Alcoholism is a cause. High doses of cortisone medicine are another cause. It might come about from an injury; athletes have suffered from it due to injuries. Treatment depends on how much bone is involved and to what stage of illness the process has advanced. With only a small portion of bone involved, conservative treatment of resting the hip with crutches is a choice. At more advanced stages, removing a core of involved bone sometimes can stimulate new bone formation. The possibility of joint replacement is something that has to be considered in far-advanced cases. DR. DONOHUE regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but he will incorporate them in his column whenever possible. Readers may write him or request an order form of available health newsletters at P.O. Box 536475, Orlando, FL 32853-6475

Blagojevich jurors agree on 2 counts

A year after dissing Swift, Kanye to return to VMAs NEW YORK (AP) – A year after his infamous outburst at the MTV Video Music Awards, Kanye West will return. The rapper is scheduled to perform at the show Sept. 12 in Los Angeles. Last year, he dissed Taylor Swift at the event, grabbing the microphone from her as she accepted the award for best female video and saying Beyonce should have won it. His remark of “I’m ’a let you finish, but Beyonce had one of the best videos of all

time� received a blizzard of negative attention. West later apologized West and took a hiatus from music. He will release his fifth studio album, “Dark Twisted Fantasy,� in Swift November. Lady Gaga leads this year’s VMAs with 13 nominations.

Pat Tillman’s family hopes to get truth in own way NEW YORK (AP) – Pat Tillman’s mother doesn’t want any more congressional hearings or official inquiries. Mary Tillman still doesn’t believe she’s been given anything close to satisfactory answers as to how her son died, or why the circumstances of his death were reported incorrectly for so long. But she knows it’s unhealthy to keep pushing, and Pat wouldn’t have wanted that for his family. If new information were to come out because of the doc-

umentary being released this month, the Tillmans would take up the cause again. They just hope the Tillman film spreads the message of who Pat really was. “The Tillman Story� opens in limited release Aug. 20. It tells the story of the Arizona Cardinals safety who became an Army Ranger and was killed by friendly fire in Afghanistan.

WHOA! MIX-UP! I apologize because last week’s column listed incorrect dates for the next Pre-Market and also incorrectly noted North Carolina Association of Rescue & EMS and state NAACP conventions would be held here in September. Next Pre-Market dates are Sept. 13-14. The EMS and NAACP conventions will be held here in September 2011. Thanks go to Marva Wells of High Point Convention & Visitors Bureau for setting us straight. tblount@hpe.com | 888-3543

Program helps people with chronic diseases carry on healthier, happier lives BY JIMMY TOMLIN ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

H

IGH POINT – Chronic health conditions such as heart disease, cancer and diabetes pose unique challenges to those who are diagnosed with them, but a new series of classes being offered locally can help make the journey less of a struggle. The Living Healthy Chronic Disease Self-Management Program, designed to help individuals better manage their chronic diseases and live healthier and happier lives, will be offered on six consecutive Mondays, beginning next week, at Providence Place. The series will be offered again on six consecutive Thursdays, Sept. 23 through Oct. 28, at the Roy B. Culler Jr. Senior Center. “Chronic health conditions are some of our most common and costly health problems,” says Connie Lawson, community health educator for the Guilford County Department of Public Health, one of several local agencies sponsoring the series. “Diseases such as diabetes, arthritis or lupus take a physical, emotional and financial toll on the individuals who have them, as well as their family members. Patients and caregivers often struggle with quality of life issues, as well as lost or reduced productiv-

The Living Healthy Chronic Disease Self-Management Program will be offered on six consecutive Mondays, beginning this coming Monday, at Providence Place, 1701 Westchester Drive. The series will be offered again on six consecutive Thursdays, Sept. 23 through Oct. 28, at the Roy B. Culler Jr. Senior Center, 600 N. Hamilton St. Participation is free but limited, and preregistration is required. To register for the first session, contact Debbie Pilson at (336) 817-8615.

According to Lawson, the program is based on a similar program developed at Stanford

University as a collaborative research project. A randomized study involving more than 1,000 participants in the Stanford project found that individuals who took the program – compared to people who did not – improved their healthful behaviors (exercise, cognitive symptom management, coping and communications with physicians), improved their health status (self-reported health, fatigue, disability, social/role activities and health distress) and decreased their days in the hospital. The Living Healthy program is being offered locally as a collaborative effort of several agencies, including the health department, the Piedmont Triad Council on Government, the Area Agency on Aging and the N.C. Baptist Aging Ministry. Lawson, who has a chronic health condition herself (systemic scleroderma), says the goal of the program “is to empower individuals with chronic health conditions to take better control over their health, resulting in a more satisfying and productive life, as well as lower health-care costs.” Participation is free, but class size is limited, and preregistration is required. For more information, contact Lawson at 845-7722 or Debbie Pilson at (336) 817-8615. jtomlin@hpe.com | 888-3579

More major hurricanes strike North Carolina in August and September than all other months combined. The best way to stay safe is to stay informed. “We have 18 Twitter feeds that instantly update citizens on real-time travel conditions, as well as changes to our ferry schedules,” said Lisa Schell, the N.C. Department of Transportation (www.ncdot.gov) media coordinator. “In an emergency, we’ll immediately send out tweets alerting the affected areas about road closures, flooding, dangerous driving conditions and evacuation routes (www. ncdot.gov/travel/ evacuationmaps/ default.html).” The department’s Twitter feeds provide easy access to travel information. Twitter is accessible on hand-held devices even if traditional telephone service and electricity is disrupted. The DOT maintains Twitter feeds for the Ferry Division (http://twitter. com/ncdot_ferry), as well as interstates (http:// twitter.com/ncdot_i85). Simply change “85” to appropriate interstate number. There are also feeds for specific cities, areas and regions including Charlotte (http:// twitter.com/ncdot_charlotte), the Triangle (http://twitter. com/ncdot_triangle), the coast and the Western mountains (http://twitter. com/ncdot_westmtn) of North Carolina.

TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES

10 WINNERS East’s ship never left port. He can count 10 winners for South: five spades, two hearts, two clubs and a diamond. The defense must win four tricks first, including a diamond, so East must lead a low diamond at Trick Two, hoping West has a useful diamond holding. West’s nine forces out the queen, and when East takes the queen of clubs, he leads another diamond to establish the setting trick. North-South’s bidding wasn’t the best. North could always make 3NT.

CROSSWORD

Friday, August 13, 2010 CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Shani Davis, 28; Debi Mazar, 46; Dawnn Lewis, 49; Kathleen Battle, 62 HAPPY BIRTHDAY: There are plenty of things that are undetermined and, although sitting in limbo is likely to make you anxious, don’t take measures that may not be best for you. It’s all about timing, and jumping the gun will only lead to regrets. Be very discerning. Mentally, physically or financially, it’s up to you to choose carefully if you want to come out ahead. Your numbers are 8, 11, 17, 20, 24, 35, 41 ARIES (March 21-April 19): Focus on the ones you love and the things you enjoy doing most. Take care of your needs and desires and plan something romantic for late in the day. When opportunity knocks, be ready to take advantage. ★★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Don’t believe everything you are told. Ask questions and you will avoid making a financial mistake. The future looks bright if you make changes conducive to your advancement. ★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): If you are fun to be with and use diplomacy, you will impress the people who mean the most to you and send a strong message to anyone trying to manipulate you. A physical challenge or shopping for something that will contribute to your looks will result in compliments. ★★★★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): You will be able to rationalize anything but, the fact of the matter is that, no one else will see things your way. Expect to go it alone or to face opposition in family matters or work that influences your household. Now is not the time to make impulsive moves. ★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): A short trip will do you good. Spending time with friends or relatives or meeting people who inspire you will bring you greater enthusiasm to reach for your goals. Someone from your past will influence you now if you reconnect. ★★★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): One look at your personal papers and you will know what needs to be done. Extra money is within reach via an investment, payoff, contract, winning or debt owed. ★★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Sign up for something that will allow you to express yourself creatively. Sitting around home will lead to an unsavory situation with someone. A partnership with someone who shares your concerns and interests will lead to greater prosperity. ★★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): A little push will enable you to meet new friends and to find ways to network, so be a participant. Mixing business with pleasure will get you closer to your goals and lead you to people who can help. ★★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You will always face some opposition but, right now, you will overrule the critical onlooker who wants you to fail. Stand tall and present your ideas with gusto and you will gain ground and make new friends. ★★★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You are likely to ruin your reputation if you are bullheaded. Focus on what you must do to make life better financially, emotionally and physically. Spend less time traveling or engaging in group endeavors. ★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Money and personal gains should be on your mind. Present what you have to offer to the people you have known forever and you will get support and a possible partnership to help you move forward fast. ★★★★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Take a greater interest in what others are doing. It’s your care of the people around you and those in your past that should grab your attention now. Your insight and ability to listen will help rebuild an old friendship. ★★★

BRIDGE

An optimist always expects his ship to come in. A true optimist expects his ship to come in when he hasn’t sent one out. In today’s deal, dummy played low on the first heart, and East took the king and lazily returned a heart. South won, drew trumps and led a club to the jack. East took the queen and led a third heart. South then forced out the ace of clubs and threw two diamonds on the good clubs, making his game. “Too bad you’re not an optimist,” West told his partner. “You could beat the contract.”

HOROSCOPE

DAILY QUESTION You hold: S 7 5 4 2 H K 4 3 D K 8 3 C A Q 4. Your partner opens one diamond, you bid one spade, he raises to two spades and you try 2NT. Partner then bids three clubs. What do you say? ANSWER: Your partner appears to have 3-1-54 pattern with minimum values. With 3-2-4-4 shape he’d play at notrump. With 4-1-4-4 he’d return to spades. Bid three diamonds. Since your king of hearts appears to be wasted opposite a singleton, make no aggressive move. North dealer Both sides vulnerable

ONE STAR: It’s best to avoid conflicts; work behind the scenes or read a good book. Two stars: You can accomplish but don’t rely on others for help. Three stars: If you focus, you will reach your goals. Four stars: You can pretty much do as you please, a good time to start new projects. Five stars: Nothing can stop you now. Go for the gold.

Blaney, the High Point resident who starts his junior year at Bishop McGuinness on Aug. 23, is the hottest thing in the PASS late model series right now after scoring his second straight win Saturday night and drawing within 12 points of the lead in the circuit’s southern division standings. “One thing that’s helped me this year is being able to tell the crew chief what I think we need to do to the car,” said Blaney, who is in his second season on the PASS circuit. “Last year, when the crew chief told me what he was going to do to the car, I didn’t SPORTS speak up. This year, I’m not afraid to tell him what I think.” Greer Blaney won at Newport Speedway in TennesSmith see after taking the lead from Justin Wakefield ■■■ on a late restart. The victory was Blaney’s third PASS triumph of the season and fourth overall. “My cars for the most part have been good all year even though we had a couple of bad races,” Blaney said. “I’ve got one of the best cars out there. I have a chance to go out and win every week, and that’s saying something.” Blaney will have a bit of a wait for the chance to make it three in a row. The PASS tour is idle until an Aug. 28 event at South Boston Speedway, which will be followed by a Sept. 4 race at North Wilkesboro Speedway that will mark the first event there since 1996.

SPEAKING OF WILKESBORO PASS officials announced that Limited Late Model, Allison Legacy and Stadium Stock races will serve as the undercard for the Labor Day 200 at the historic Wilkes County track. Qualifying is set Friday, Sept. 3. Track officials have announced a Modified race and a Street Stock race will support a USAR ProCup event on Oct. 3 in a reincarnation of the track’s fall “triple header.”

BOWMAN GRAY RECAP Burt Myers lost just two points of his lead in Bowman Gray Stadium’s Modified standings even though he was spun from the lead with 15 laps to go and finished eighth in a 50-lap race last Friday night. Myers is 59 points ahead with two meets to go, thanks to Tim Brown running into more trouble. Brown, who came into the race second in standings, wound up 20th when officials stopped scoring his car for ignoring the black flag as an order to go to the pits for removal of dangling sheet metal. Brian Loftin moved into second place in the standings. Lee Jeffreys is third, but 76 points behind Myers. Kyle Edwards has a 31-point lead over his older brother Barry in the Sportsman division – which produced a first-time winner in Kevin Neal last Saturday night. Matt Cotner is 46 points ahead of Wallburg’s Billy Gregg in the Street Stock division. Jason Keaton is 28 ahead of Dale Barneycastle in Stadium Stock.

Trevor Immelman of South Africa walks off the 10th hole as the sun sets during the first round of the PGA Championship on Thursday at Whistling Straits in Haven, Wis.

Out of the fog SHEBOYGAN, Wis. (AP) – Tiger Woods broke par in the PGA Championship, cause for celebration Thursday. It wasn’t as good as Bubba Watson and Francesco Molinari of Italy, who handled the breeze and bunkers at Whistling Straits and wound up atop the leaderboard at 4-under 68 among those who finished the first round. Then again, it wasn’t nearly as bad as what some were expecting. Even after the fog lifted along the shores of Lake Michigan, no one was sure what they would see from Woods. The answer came early, with three birdies on his opening holes to – get this – put his name atop the leaderboard. But only briefly. There were enough errant shots, including one that went so far left it found a marsh he didn’t know was there, that Woods had to make an 8foot birdie putt on the final hole for a 1-under 71. Since when is shooting 71 a good feeling for a guy with 14 majors? When he’s coming off the worst tournament of his career, an 18-over

298 at Firestone to beat only one player in the field, raising questions that ranged from whether this would be his last PGA Tour event of the year in America to whether he belonged in the Ryder Cup. “Welcome to golf, you know?” Woods said. The fog delay meant none of the late starters could finish the opening round. Ernie Els, desperate to make sure another year doesn’t end without a major, played bogey-free through 14 holes and was at 4 under, making a 7-foot par save on the 14th shortly before the horn sounded. Also at 4 under were Matt Kuchar and Nick Watney, courtesy of eagles – Kuchar on the 13th early in his round by holing from the fairway, Watney on the par-5 11th, his last hole of the day. Phil Mickelson, closer than ever to going to No. 1 in the world, ended a wild day at 1 under through 11 holes. In a summer of majors at Pebble Beach and St. Andrews, it only figures that a fog delay just over three hours would be in Wisconsin.

BACK TO DARLINGTON NASCAR’s Truck Series returns to Darlington Raceway on Saturday night for the first time since 2004. The “Tough to Tame 200” also marks the first time the track has hosted a race for either the Truck or Nationwide Series as a “stand alone” event away from a Cup weekend. Given how poorly such events draw in the southeast, a sea of empty seats will not be a surprise. Just a handful of the 33 drivers entered have raced on the tricky, egg-shaped 1.336-mile track. Among them: points leader Todd Bodine, defending series champ Ron Hornaday Jr., Mike Skinner, Ken Scharder, Johnny Sauter, Butch Miller, Stacy Compton and Dennis Setzer. “The ‘Lady in Black’ always seems to live up to her name, and I’m sure the guys who have raced at Darlington (Raceway) before will have an advantage,” Skinner said. “Any kind of experience whether it was in a Sprint Cup Series car, Nationwide Series car, or a truck will help the driver run better at Darlington Raceway. There is no other track that we race at that is quite like Darlington.” Qualifying is at 4 p.m., with the race at 8 p.m. AP

FIRST-TIME WINNER Garrett Campbell posted his first UARA late model victory last Saturday night at Concord Speedway as Robert Johnson finished second. Clint King of Denton was 13th. gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3556

Bubba Watson chips to the sixth hole during the first round of the PGA Championship on Thursday at Whistling Straits in Haven, Wis. Watson, a High Point Country Club member, shares the clubhouse lead at 4-under with Francesco Molinari. Ernie Els, Matt Kuchar and Nick Watney were 4-under on the course when play was suspended for the day due to darkness.

HIT AND RUN

I

n a season filled with so many questionable calls, more folks than ever are clamoring for expanded use of instant replay in the big leagues. While I understand the reasoning, I think the replay rules are fine the way they are. The current system allows umpires to check the videotape on questionable home runs. Considering so many ballparks these days have so many crazy nooks and crannies, the men in blue need some help separating homers from doubles and homers from foul balls.

But human error is an everyday part of the game for players, managers and umpires alike. Take last week’s Phillies-Marlins game in Miami. Third base ump Bob Davidson ruled a rocket grounder off the bat of Florida’s Gaby Sanchez foul in the bottom of the ninth. That negated a game-winning RBI single and Philadelphia went on to win 5-4 in 10. The ball looked fair on some replays, but I watched several angles of that play and some of them left doubt in my mind. Davidson watched the same replays and said he still

thought the ball was foul. I could not conclusively call the ball fair. Besides, big-league baseball doesn’t exactly zip right along. Slowing the pace of an average game by another 5-to-10 minutes or more to check replays is not my idea of progress. Nobody’s perfect. It’s always frustrating when the umpire blows a call, but that’s part of the game. Let’s keep the game the way it is, warts and all.

Warner to call Arena Bowl for NFL Network NEW YORK (AP) — Kurt Warner is returning to his Arena Football League roots. The recently retired NFL quarterback will call the Arena Bowl for NFL Network on Aug. 20. Before he was a two-time NFL MVP, Warner was an AFL star. He led Iowa to Arena Bowl appearances in 1996 and 1997 — then later played in three Super Bowls. Warner’s remarkable pro football career ended when he announced his retirement from the Arizona Cardinals in January.

Santana, Mets top Rockies

HPU women fall to UNCG in soccer exhibition match

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE

NEW YORK – Johan Santana pitched a four-hit shutout to make a closer unnecessary, and the New York Mets beat the Colorado Rockies 4-0 Thursday after Francisco Rodriguez was arrested on a charge of assaulting his girlfriend’s father at Citi Field. Just before the game began, the Mets suspended Rodriguez for two days without pay. He was charged with third-degree assault after Wednesday night’s game, police said. His girlfriend’s father went to a hospital with a scraped face and bump on his head following the confrontation at a ballpark family lounge. Santana has his own legal troubles. A Florida woman who accused him of rape sued the Mets ace in Lee County, Fla., after authorities declined to prosecute the case. Against the Rockies, Santana (10-6) won for the second time in four starts.

GREENSBORO – The High Point University women’s soccer team lost to UNC Greensboro 4-1 in its lone exhibition match of the season late Wednesday night. Freshman Kelli Joline notched the only goal for the Panthers, scoring on a free kick in the 87th minute. “I thought for our first side out in an 11-v-11 situation I was very pleased with the things that we can take from this scrimmage,� HPU head coach Marty Beall said. “We are very young, so when you have a lot of youth playing against an experienced side like UNC Greensboro they will punish you for your mistakes. There are some positive things to focus on as we move forward and the end result is not reflective of the level this team is playing at.� With HPU trailing 4-0 late in the third period, Joline found the back of the net for the first time in her college career when she ran onto a loose ball off a free kick by freshman Cary Ann Parrish. Joline corralled the ball just six yards in front of goal and rifled a shot past the Spartan keeper. Joline had the first

BREWERS 8, DIAMONDBACKS 4 MILWAUKEE – Casey McGehee set a franchise record with his ninth straight hit, going 4 for 4 and leading the Milwaukee Brewers over the Arizona Diamondbacks. McGehee had a solo homer, a two-run double, an RBI single and another single.

GIANTS 8, CUBS 7 SAN FRANCISCO – Pinch-hitter Andrew Torres hit a basesloaded single in the bottom of the ninth inning to send the San Francisco Giants over the Chicago Cubs.

JAYS 6, RED SOX 5 TORONTO – Fred Lewis hit a sacrifice fly that capped a fourrun rally in the ninth inning and the Toronto Blue Jays beat the Boston Red Sox 6-5. The Blue Jays trailed 5-2 before Jose Bautista chased Red Sox starter John Lackey by leading off the ninth with his major league-leading 36th homer. Jonathan Papelbon (4-5) blew his sixth save try of the season.

Atlanta Braves third baseman Chipper Jones watches from the dugout during the eighth inning of Wednesday’s game against the Houston Astros. Jones will miss the rest of the season and his career could be over after suffering a left knee injury in Tuesday night’s game.

Braves’ Jones likely out for year with knee woes ATLANTA (AP) – Chipper Jones may have played his last game in the major leagues after tearing up his left knee while fielding a ground ball. The Atlanta Braves said Thursday that the 38-year-old third baseman tore his anterior cruciate ligament and will need surgery. The estimated recovery time is six months, short enough to be ready for the next opening day – if Jones decides to return in 2011. He had already said he would consider retirement after a season that’s now ended sooner than expected. “I’m sure as the next couple of days go by, those are things we’ll discuss and he’ll discuss with his family,� his agent, BB Abbott, told The Associated Press. “It’s not something he’ll decide immediately. He’s going to need to hear everything about the injury and rehabilitative process. He’ll probably make his decision from there. I can assure you it’s not something that’s going to be a knee-jerk decision.� Jones was hurt in Tuesday night’s game at Houston. He fielded a routine grounder by Hunter Pence, jumped in the air while making the throw to first, then collapsed to the ground for several minutes. After an MRI exam, Jones met Thursday with the team doctor, Marvin Royster, who delivered the grim diagnosis – and a major setback for the NL East leaders. “Obviously, he’s very, very disappointed. I would almost describe it as numb,� Abbott said. “He knows this will be a big blow to the team. Obviously, he has been going very well recently and felt like he was really contributing to the team’s success. This is real disappointing for him.�

Jones feared something was seriously wrong after he walked off the field gingerly under his own power. “It’s hurt,� he said in Houston. “I heard a distinct pop.� The Braves were actually hopeful when the knee didn’t swell as much as one would expect after an ACL injury, especially when Jones was able to handle some routine flexibility drills. But the MRI showed a partial tear, plus some stretching of the ligament, making it impossible for him to come back without surgery. “We were cautiously optimistic,� general manager Frank Wren said. “When we got the news this morning, I was actually pretty shocked.� Jones had bounced back from a slow start and was hitting .265 with 10 homers and 46 RBIs for a team that had a 21⠄2game lead in the NL East on two-time defending league champion Philadelphia. The Braves will have to carry on with Omar Infante and Brooks Conrad sharing third base, though neither has Jones’ power. Coming off a poor 2009 season, Jones got off to a miserable start this year and said in June that he was considering retirement. A few days later, he backed off and said he would wait until after the season to make a decision. He had been playing much better since then, raising his average some 30 points and showing more power. Wren will look into making a trade to bolster the lineup, but his options are limited since the deadline for nonwaiver moves has passed. As for Jones, he has to consider whether he wants to keep playing after the second major knee injury of his career.

Reds’ Cueto gets 7-game suspension for brawl NEW YORK (AP) – Cincinnati Reds pitcher Johnny Cueto has been suspended for seven games for his actions during a brawl with the St. Louis Cardinals, and both managers were suspended for two games. Major League Baseball said Thursday that Cue-

NEW YORK (AP) – Suspended Mets closer Francisco Rodriguez was released without bail Thursday and ordered to stay away from his girlfriend’s father, whom he is accused of attacking outside a family lounge at Citi Field. Rodriguez was arrested and charged with third-degree assault after New York’s 6-2 loss to Colorado on Wednesday night. The team put him on the restricted list without pay for two days, costing him more than $125,000. The 28-year-old reliever is accused of grabbing 53-year-old Carlos Pena, hauling him into a nearby tunnel, hitting him in the face and banging his head against the wall. Pena went to a hospital with a scrape and swelling above his right eyebrow. Rodriguez did not

enter a plea. Held overnight at Citi Field, he wore jeans, a white dress shirt and sneakers in a Queens courthouse. He did not speak, but nodded as the judge spoke to him. “Ownership and the organization are very disappointed in Francisco’s inappropriate behavior and we take this matter very seriously,� Mets chief operating officer Jeff Wilpon said. Judge Mary O’Donoghue issued orders of protection for Rodriguez to stay away from his girlfriend – Daian Pena, the mother of their 1-year-old twins – and her father. Police initially identified Carlos Pena as Rodriguez’s father-inlaw. The pitcher’s lawyer said Rodriguez and the woman are not married.

The Spartans slowly took control of the game in the first period and in the 10th minute of play Greensboro’s Cat Barnekow slotted a ball past junior Andrea Ritchie for the first score of the game. UNCG would add three more tallies on the night with a goal by Jessi Gulledge in the second period and goals by Jaimey Etten and Lauren Hein in the third period before Joline wrapped up the scoring with her late goal.

(AP) – First of all, the Buffalo Bills will need to get used to seeing Donovan McNabb in a Washington Redskins uniform. “It’s going to look funny,� linebacker Kawika Mitchell said, “having him in that white or burgundy.� Once that is out of the way, the Bills hope to start a new chapter

NCAA probe still hovers over Tar Heels CHAPEL HILL (AP) – Butch Davis has talked with his North Carolina players about the importance of ignoring distractions. An NCAA investigation hovering over the program for the past month is making that easier said than done. The Tar Heels are still waiting to find out whether two key players will be eligible for the opener against LSU and beyond. But the inquiry into agents and benefits has evolved to include concerns about a cross-country trip involving two Tar Heels as well as a longtime friendship between an assistant coach and an agent that has attracted the NCAA’s interest. “I know everybody just wants this whole deal just to be over with so we don’t have to worry about it anymore, so we don’t have to wonder anymore about all this stuff,� quarterback T.J. Yates said Thursday at the team’s preseason media day. “It’s kind of annoying when new stuff keeps coming out on the news and we don’t even know about it,� he said. “We go into the lunchroom and there’s another thing up there on ESPN. It’s like, ‘Geez, come on, let’s get it over with,’ you know? “We’re all ready to move on.� The NCAA notified the school in late June that it was examining whether defensive tackle Marvin Austin and receiver Greg Little received improper benefits from

agents. The NCAA visited the campus July 12 and 13 to interview players, then returned last week for another two-day visit. Athletic director Dick Baddour said the NCAA has repeatedly told the school not to comment publicly, though he has said the school is cooperating fully and that he has no timetable for a decision. “I believe we have been as responsive as we possibly can be,� Baddour said. “We have not hidden from this.� The North Carolina Secretary of State’s office has launched its own investigation about potential misconduct by agents. The state requires agents to register and prohibits them from offering gifts before a contract is signed. Violations can lead to criminal or civil penalties. The office has sent a letter to the more than 100 agents registered with the state notifying them of the investigation and instructing them not to destroy records, office spokeswoman Liz Proctor said. The Associated Press has obtained a copy of the letter named in it are Austin, Little, safety Deunta Williams, cornerback Kendric Burney and linebackers Bruce Carter and Quan Sturdivant. Those six players were all considered NFL prospects who returned to school for their senior seasons.

There have been similar NCAA investigations at Alabama, Georgia and South Carolina, with links to a South Beach party attended by players from several schools earlier this year. But the North Carolina probe seemingly has become more problematic. A person familiar with the inquiry said the NCAA also talked with assistant coach John Blake during the second visit about his friendship with California-based agent Gary Wichard. The person spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because the investigation is confidential. Blake is the Tar Heels’ associate head coach and defensive line coach. Davis, preparing for his fourth season, was asked about whether he had concerns over Blake’s connections to Wichard when he hired him in December 2006. Davis responded by saying he wouldn’t talk about anything connected to the NCAA probe. Wichard – who founded the Pro Tect Management agency in Westlake Village, Calif. – hasn’t returned a call or e-mail from AP seeking comment, while the school hasn’t made Blake available for comment. In a recent interview with Yahoo! Sports, Wichard denied wrongdoing, saying he has been close friends with Blake for years and that “there’s nothing to investigate.�

Mortgage rates lowest since 1971 WASHINGTON (AP) — Mortgage rates sank to the lowest level in decades this week, pushed down by the weak economy and the Federal Reserve’s move to help lift the recovery by purchasing government debt. Mortgage buyer Freddie Mac says the average rate for 30-year fixed loans this week was 4.44 percent, down from 4.49 percent last week. That’s the lowest since Freddie Mac began tracking rates in 1971. The average rate on the 15-year fixed loan dropped to 3.92 percent, down from 3.95 percent last week and the lowest on record. Rates have fallen since spring and the government’s July jobs report has investors worried about

Automaker posts $1.33 billion profit DETROIT (AP) — General Motors Co. said Thursday it made $1.33 billion in the second quarter, a sign it’s getting healthier as it prepares to sell stock to the public. It was the second straight quarterly profit for the Detroit automaker, which made $865 million in the first quarter, and sets the stage for GM to file paperwork soon to start the public stock sale process.

World Cup lifts AB InBev’s 2Q profit NEW YORK (AP) — Anheuser-Busch InBev NV, the world’s largest brewer, says World Cup fervor helped drive second-quarter profit and sales above expectations. Profit is seen continuing to rise for the rest of the year. The producer of Budweiser, Stella Artois and Beck’s says net income rose nearly 8 percent to $1.15 billion with revenue up 4 percent to $9.2 billion. The Belgium-based company said beer sales rose 2 percent, with soft drinks up 5.5 percent.

the country slipping back into recession. They are shifting more money into the safety of Treasury bonds, lowering their yields. Mortgage rates tend to track those yields. And the Federal Reserve is pushing those yields down even further. The central bank said Tuesday it would buy Treasurys to help aid the recovery, using the proceeds from debt and mortgage-backed securities it bought from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. That move alone will not be enough to push average rates down to 4 percent, said Bob Walters, chief economist at Quicken Loans. But rates that low are still a possibility if the economic outlook worsens even further. If investors

became convinced that a renewed recession is likely, they would move even more money away from stocks and into bonds and mortgage debt. That would send rates down further. “The silver lining to a bad economy is that interest rates fall,� Walters said. “If you can lower your debt burden by refinancing, that’s great.� Low rates have failed to spark home sales, which have plummeted this summer as the economy remains weak and credit standards stay tight. Applications to refinance home loans have grown but remain well short of a massive refinancing boom. Overall home loan applications rose only 0.6 percent last week.

GM CEO to step down DETROIT (AP) — General Motors Co. CEO Ed Whitacre said Thursday he’s stepping down Sept. 1. Whitacre, 68, will be replaced by GM board member Daniel Akerson, the managing director and head of global buyout for The Carlyle Group, a private equity firm. Akerson, 61, will be GM’s fourth CEO in 18 months when he takes over the job. Whitacre was named GM’s chairman last July when GM emerged from bankruptcy protection. After he ousted CEO Fritz Henderson, Whitacre was named interim CEO in December and became permanent CEO in January. Whitacre, the former head of AT&T, often said in a folksy Texas drawl that he knew little about cars. But he shook up the company with a number of managerial changes, including luring Chief Financial Officer Chris Liddell from Microsoft Corp. He also combined sales and marketing responsibilities and consolidated control of GM’s core

Whitacre said the board was aware of his plans the day he accepted the CEO job, and he predicted a smooth transition. “I believe we’ve accomplished what we set out to do,� Whitacre said. GM reported its second straight quarterly profit on Thursday. Akerson has been involved in GM’s transition every step of the way, Whitacre said. “He’s absolutely the right choice.� Akerson has served on GM’s board since July 2009. He has worked for The Carlyle Group since 2003. Like Whitacre, Akerson has a background in telecommunications. He worked in top executive positions at MCI Communications in the 1980s and 1990s.

Stocks fall on earnings, jobless data NEW YORK (AP) — Technology companies led the stock market to its third straight loss Thursday after an earnings report from Cisco Systems raised more questions about the economy. A weekly employment report that was weaker than expected also made investors uneasy about the strength of the economic recovery. The Dow Jones industrial average fell 58 points and now has an almost 380-point loss the past three days. The Dow has also fallen five of the last six days. The Nasdaq composite index had a steeper loss in percentage terms, a reflection of the drop in tech stocks. Cisco Systems Inc. released earnings after the market closed Wednesday. Cisco is seen by many traders and analysts as an indicator of the economy’s health, and it disappointed investors in several ways. The computer networking company’s revenue for its fiscal fourth quarter and forecast for revenue fell short of analysts’ expectations. Investors are focused on the connection between revenue and the economy. If revenue is weak, that could be a sign that consumers are reluctant to spend and could start to affect companies’ profits. The Dow fell 58.88, or 0.6 percent, to 10,319.95. The average has lost 360 points over the past six days.

MakeMyTrip Ltd. began as a website in the U.S., mainly serving Indian expats wanting to travel to India. In 2005, it began operations in India, offering airline tickets as well as hotel bookings, bus tickets and other services to the country’s fast growing demographic of middleclass consumers. MakeMyTrip cites data from consultancy firm McKinsey saying that the Indian middle class is expected to grow from 50 million people in 2005

to 583 million people in 2025. India has a much smaller segment of its population on the Internet than the U.S. does, and the company says its revenue will rise as increasingly wealthy Indians get online. The company’s revenue grew throughout the recession. In the year ended March 31, 1.6 million domestic air ticket transactions were booked through MakeMyTrip’s website in India, up from 1.2 million in the previous 12 months.

Jobs picture dims now risen in three of the last four weeks and are close to their high point for the year of 490,000, reached in late January. The four-week average, which smooths volatility, soared by 14,250 to 473,500, also the highest since late February. Analysts said that the unexpected rise in claims suggests hiring in August won’t be much better than July. The economy added a net 12,000 jobs last month after excluding the loss of temporary census positions.

That’s not nearly enough to reduce the unemployment rate, which is currently 9.5 percent.

Travel agency soars in market debut

WASHINGTON (AP) – The employment picture is looking bleaker as applications for jobless benefits rose last week to the highest level in almost six months. It’s a sign that hiring is weak and employers are still cutting their staffs. First-time claims for jobless benefits edged up by 2,000 to a seasonally adjusted 484,000, the Labor Department said Thursday. Analysts had expected a drop. That’s the highest total since February. Initial claims have

NEW YORK (AP) – Shares of Indian travel agency MakeMyTrip Ltd. soared as much as 80 percent in their market debut on the Nasdaq exchange, even as the broader markets declined. It could be the best first-day performance for an IPO this year. Financial advisory firm Financial Engines Inc., which so far has posted the top first-day return, closed up nearly 44 percent in its debut in midMarch.

Dominic Colwan of Stockton, Calif., lends his support to gay marriage Thursday outside City Hall in San Francisco.

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) – The federal judge who struck down California’s gay-marriage ban said Thursday that same-sex weddings can resume next week unless an appeals court intervenes before then. The news raised hopes among gay couples that they soon will be able to tie the knot after years of agonizing delays. Judge Vaughn Walker gave opponents of samesex weddings until Aug. 18 at 5 p.m. to get a ruling from the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on

whether gay marriage should resume. Gay marriages could happen at that point or be put off indefinitely depending on how the court rules. Walker struck down the state’s voter-approved gay marriage ban last week in a case many believe is destined for the Supreme Court. Dozens of gay marriage supporters who had gathered outside San Francisco’s City Hall, a block from the federal courthouse, erupted in cheers when the decision came out.
