HIGH POINT – Last weekend, High Point experienced torrential downpours, flashes of lightning and booms of thunder that rattled foundations. Unfortunately, Memorial Day weekend may hold a similar fate. High Point, which has experienced drought conditions in recent years, goes into this summer in good standing, thanks to a wet week and a wet winter, and the Memorial Day weekend could see some precipitation that could add to the grand total. Today and Thursday will see a break from the cloud coverage, according to the National Weather Service in Raleigh. Starting Friday, a front will begin dropping down from the north bring-

Planners back construction of new Family Dollar BY PAM HAYNES ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
HIGH POINT – The Planning and Zoning Commission approved requests Tuesday night that could allow a new Family Dollar to be built in spite of the planning department staff’s recommendation to deny the requests. Dunbar & Smith Inc. gained 7-0 approval for the construction of a Family Dollar on a 1-acre piece of land at the northeast corner of Brentwood Street and Wade Place. Developers said the store would serve the surrounding neighborhoods while the planning department staff argued that the 50-acre area of land was reserved for light industrial use, such
as warehouses, according to a landuse plan adopted in 2000. “According to the (U.S.) 311 bypass study, this land would be an ideal location for industrial use,” said Herb Shannon, senior planner with the department. “Industrial use has been slow to occur, but with the opening of the 311 bypass, staff feels this is an area to be reserved for industrial use.” Shannon also said public safety could be an issue as the store would be built on a busy, fourlane intersection. Commission members Joe Humble and Andrew Putnam said they supported the request from Dunbar & Smith Inc. because industrial devel-
opment seemed unlikely in the area. “It’s almost like we’re waiting for something to happen that just hasn’t happened yet,” Putnam said about the slow industrial development in the area. “It’s just 1 acre out of 50 here.” Scott Dunbar of Dunbar & Smith Inc. said the company wanted to restore a piece of property that would otherwise remain empty. “There are numerous households throughout this area that could shop at the store,” Dunbar said. “We plan to convert a rundown environment into something the city should be proud of.” The commission also approved a request from High Point University

and the YMCA on W. Hartley Drive. High Point University requested to rezone property it purchased from Wesleyan Education Center on N. College Drive, between Eastchester Drive and N. Centennial Street, a public institution designation. Eventually, the school plans to house 407 students on the property, university officials said. A request from the YMCA to build fences 15 feet in height in between its athletic fields and the right-of-way of W. Hartley Drive was also approved. The three cases will go before City Council on June 21 at 5:30 p.m. in city hall. phaynes@hpe.com | 888-3617

Archdale proposes utility rate increase, no tax hike
Tougher animal cruelty penalties OK’d RALEIGH (AP) – Lawmakers have recommended raising penalties in North Carolina for people who maliciously abuse or kill animals. A dog that had been beaten and burned in Greensboro was in the committee room as members approved the measure Tuesday. The bill makes it a lowgrade felony instead of a misdemeanor if a person intentionally starves an animal to death. A person would be guilty of the same felony if an animal is tortured, mutilated or disfigured. The punishment would be up to eight months behind bars, but a judge could agree to community service or probation instead. The bill was introduced after a man received probation for abusing a female pit-bull mix. The dog was later adopted and named Susie and was at the meeting with supporters.
ARCHDALE – The 2010-11 proposed fiscal-year budget for Archdale includes a hike in water and sewer rates, but no increase in the city’s property tax rate. The City Council held a public hearing on the budget during its regular monthly meeting Tuesday night, where no one spoke in favor or against the financial plan. According to Lori Nurse, the city’s finance director, the proposed increase in water and sewer rates will vary on the amount of usage for each household. The proposed budget, introduced to the City Council last month, recommended that the minimum monthly charge for customers who use more than 2,000

to the city manager’s budget letter. Nurse said the city’s property tax rate is proposed to remain at 29 cents per $100 valuation – the city’s rate for the last four years. Revenues for property tax are budgeted $40,000 less than last year, the finance director said. The proposed budget recommends performance-based salary increases of up to 3 percent for city employees. Nurse said the increases would vary from employee to employee and not all would receive additional money. The budget does not include cost-of-living adjustments. The City Council is expected to consider final approval of the budget at its regular monthly meeting next month.
gallons of water increase from $12.50 to $13.40 and the minimum monthly sewer charge increase from $15 to $16. But the City Council decided Tuesday to lower the amount for water from $13.40 to $13.25 following a suggestion from Councilman Eddie Causey. The proposed increase in sewer remains the same. City Manager Jerry Yarborough said in his budget letter that “each year the rates paid by the customers must be sufficient to recover the related costs of operating the city’s water distribution and wastewater collection system.” If approved by the City Council, the rate changes will be applied to meter readings done in mid-July and will be noticed on the utility bill on Aug. 20, according

ing a return to the familiar gray sky. The chance of precipitation will last into Saturday and Sunday as well, which could ruin some holiday plans. Since May 18, the High Point area has accumulated 2.5 to 3 inches of rain, according to Barrett Smith, meteorologist for the National Weather Service. As of Tuesday, rainfall measurements from the Pied-
mont Triad International Airport have totalled 17.48 inches year to date. Last year at this time, the number was 14.83 inches. While last year’s number was below normal, High Point is only a halfinch above the yearly rainfall average, despite recent downpours. But that half-inch could prove to be crucial in the later months of the sum-
mer. During these months, “areas always run the risk of a drought,” Smith said. “Showers and thunderstorms occur in the afternoons and are hit or miss.” The first part of winter brought a great deal of precipitation, which pulled the state out of an ongoing drought. Throughout April and into the beginning of May, the Triad ex-
perienced an extended dry period, putting the area back into a heightened awareness of drought. But thanks to the recent string of storms, “the Triad is back in good standing,” Smith said. “But it’s hard to say whether or not the area will experience a drought later in the summer.” editor@hpe.com | 888-3537

BEIJING – U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on Tuesday rejected an Iranian plan to swap some of its enriched uranium for reactor fuel and called the offer a “transparent ploy� to try to avoid new U.N.

Southeast Old Threshers Reunion is going strong Decades ago, Biltmore House management pondered their budget and events. Attendance was high from spring through fall, but not during winter. They discussed closing the house. But, instead event organizers opted to dress it up, creating “Christmas at Biltmore.” They hoped someone would come. Now, the Christmas celebration is the biggest event of the year there. We at the Denton FarmPark went through some of the same thinking process when we came up with Country Christmas Train last year. We didn’t have a winter event, and we wanted to put Christ back into Christmas. So we decided to try something new. Our idea took off. So, we did what all good business people do. We analyzed how our events were doing – what worked and what didn’t. As a result, we indefinitely suspended our November event, Horse and Mule Days. That announcement caused

I will fight for truth and transparency if elected. I will be a voice for the students, parents and teachers. Safe schools are a must in Guilford County.

That’s a 16 percent increase in the current property tax rate of 55.5 cents. The increase would raise a property owner’s tax bill by $91 for each $100,000 of assessed property value. And to make matters worse, in some cases the tax value of the owner’s property – especially if it’s their home – may even be higher than the current actual value because of the depressed real estate market brought on by the sour economy. Randolph County revalued its property for the 2008 tax bills before the current recession became so severe. The problem, county financial officials say, is similar to those being experienced by most governing bodies at all levels – revenues such as sales taxes and construction-related fees that normally flow during boom times are no longer there. But in Randolph, there’s another aspect of the situation for which commissioners are to blame. Last year, the board took $7.4 million out of reserves and pumped it into the annual budget’s revenue side in order to avoid a tax rate increase or additional budget expense reductions. Perhaps it was a noble gesture then aimed at keeping the tax rate low. But now, it was a move that has resulted in the call for a 16 percent increase in the property tax rate. Surely, it was a mistake last year to use so much “one-time” money for general operations to forestall a rate increase. And now, most property owners in Randolph surely will say it would be a mistake to raise the tax rate 16 percent. Commissioners should scour the proposed budget for areas to cut or postpone expense items. That may require (if only temporarily) service modifications, work force and salary reductions and a realignment of budget priorities. But certainly, the taxpayers of Randolph don’t want to be hammered with a 16 percent property tax rate increase.

High Court makes another power grab in Florida case
Y
ou might think that being a Supreme Court justice would be the top of the line job for someone in the legal profession. But, many Supreme Court decisions suggest that too many justices are not satisfied with their role, and seek more sweeping powers as supreme policy-makers, grand second-guessers or philosopher-kings. The latest example of this is the recent Supreme Court decision in the case of Graham versus Florida. The issue was whether the Constitution permitted a state to impose a sentence of life without the possibility of parole when the criminal was a youthful offender. The Supreme Court voted 6 to 3 that this was a violation of the Constitution. If your copy of the Constitution doesn’t say anything about youthful offenders, do not worry that you have a defective copy. There is no such statement in the Constitution. What the justices cited as the alleged basis for their decision was the Eighth Amendment’s prohibition against “cruel and unusual punishments.” Since 37 out of the 50 states permit sentences of life without the possibility of parole, such a sentence is not unusual. How about cruel? If it is cruel, then why is it OK to impose that sentence on people who are not youthful? The case of Graham versus Florida involved a 16-year-old repeat offender, who was convicted of a home invasion robbery while on probation from a previous felony. He was sentenced to life imprisonment without the possibility of parole. The Supreme Court then over-ruled that decision. The role of an appellate court is not to simply second-guess the decision of the trial judge and jury, much less usurp the responsibility of legislatures to make social policy. But the pretense of applying the Constitution gives appellate judges the power to do both. The bolder justices go further, citing practices in other countries as supporting their decisions that are supposedly based on the Constitution of the United States. If justices can pick and choose which legal principles and practices they will follow, from the many widely varying principles and practices in countries around the world, then they can find a basis for doing just about anything they feel like doing. This too goes counter to the very basis of
American government, as a system in which “We the people” ultimately govern ourselves through representatives of our own choosing and the officials appointed by them. Once appellate judges are free to base their rulings on what people do in India, Egypt or GerOPINION many, Americans are no longer a self-governing people. Thomas As if to add a touch of farce to Sowell lighten the tragedy of the disman■■■ tling of the Constitution, Supreme Court justices on opposing sides of the case of Graham versus Florida cited statistics seeking to show that there was national consensus for or against life sentences without the possibility of parole. Appellate courts, including the Supreme Court, are not institutions equipped to make policy judgments like that. Legislatures exist to make policy judgments – and to be voted out of office if these policy judgments turn out to produce results that the electorate do not want. But there are no such corrective mechanisms in place if Supreme Court justices misjudge. Finally, there is the old, moth-eaten argument cited by Justice John Paul Stevens, that the society is evolving and therefore the interpretation of the Constitution must evolve with it. Nobody – from the moment that the Constitution was adopted in the 18th century to the present – has ever denied that societies evolve, and that their laws must evolve to meet changing circumstances. But, unless Justice Stevens is either stupid or dishonest, he cannot leap from a need for laws to change to the conclusion that it is judges who must be the ones to make those changes. Just saying the magic word “change” does not justify judges grabbing the power to make whatever changes they please in the law. There are, after all, two other branches of the federal government, specifically charged with legislative and executive responsibilities and powers, not to mention the Constitutional Amendment process.

For four years, Central blue has united friends
THREE VIEWS ON THE TEA PARTY
---
‘N
othing is black and white.” I find it quite ironic that this phrase has developed a meaning with a negative connotation. For four years, each senior at my school has been leaving behind a splash of the colors we chose to define us. We carefully considered color before choosing significant material items, from cellphones to prom dresses. We excitedly scribbled and doodled precious words and images in each other’s yearbooks in brightly colored gel-pens and sharpies. We painted and crafted eye-popping murals for art class, posters for clubs and sets for plays. Thanks to one of my favorite HPC traditions, we pulled into the senior parking lot each morning greeted by the myriad colors we had sprawled across the spaces when we expectantly left our mark at the beginning of the year. We have not only physically colored High Point Central; we have colored the memories of our years together. The different facets of a personality can be as slow to fade as a drop of paint. Like the colors of the senior lot, I will not soon forget the lasting impact that my classmates have made on me. During my years as a high school student, my little “IB bubble” of the 34 seniors involved in Central’s International Baccalaureate Program has created the most inspiring mural of colorful personalities I could have asked for. Despite the similarities that tied us together, each of these students’ personalities left a unique yet equally inspiring impact. I see within these driven, enthusiastic, compassionate individuals so many bright futures I could not name them all: doctors, lawyers, scientists,
musicians, writers, teachers, and even careers that have yet to be created. One of the most powerful aspects of these students, however, is the fact that they have allowed no single color to dominate TEEN VIEW their lives, but rather permitted a combination to Leslie Ann shape their identities: colBlake ors from home states and ■■■ countries, colors of school clubs and sports teams, and most excitingly, the color of the university that each of us will be calling home next August. In a few short weeks, the deep Central blue that bound my class together will no longer be obligatory. We will launch our royal blue caps into the air and strip off our gowns to reveal the individual multicolored outfits beneath. I hope that, though we may shed the colors physically, we will always keep tucked in our hearts the colors associated with the memories in the hallowed halls of High Point Central High. Knowing the class of 2010, I can attest that it is full of bright young men and women who desire nothing more than to leave a little color behind everywhere they go that makes the world a little brighter. I am convinced that, as we voyage into the world, we will do just that. So celebrate the fact that nothing is black and white. If there is one thing my fellow students have taught me, it’s just how beautiful colors can be. Teen View columnist LESLIE ANN BLAKE is a senior at High Point Central High School.

Workers shovel oil from the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in Port Fourchon, La., Monday.
‘Top kill’ plug readied WASHINGTON (AP) – Marking five disastrous weeks, BP readied yet another attempt to slow the oil gushing into the Gulf on Tuesday as a federal report alleged drilling regulators have been so close to oil and gas companies they’ve been accepting gifts and even negotiating to go work for them. President Barack Obama prepared to head to the Gulf on Friday to review efforts to halt the millions of gallons of contaminating crude, while scientists said underwater video of the leak showed the plume growing significantly darker, suggesting heavier, more-polluting oil is spewing out. BP’s next effort to stop the damaged oil well, perhaps today, will be to force-
feed heavy drilling mud and cement into the well to plug it up. The tactic, called a “top kill,� has never been tried a mile beneath the sea, and company executives estimate its chances of success at 60 to 70 percent. Also Tuesday, in Jackson, Miss., 11 men who died in the April 20 rig explosion were honored at a somber memorial service with tributes from country music stars and drilling company executives. “This is the one of the most difficult days for many of us here. But for the families of our 11 lost colleagues, this is just another of many difficult days,� said Steven Newman, CEO of Transocean Ltd., the Swiss-based owner of the Deepwater Horizon rig.

Officials at Piedmont Triad International Airport have finished revising a master plan, the first time it has been done in 16 years.
Draft master plan includes airport land purchases, possible additional runway BY PAUL B. JOHNSON ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
GREENSBORO – Piedmont Triad International Airport leaders just completed 12 years of planning and construction to build a third runway that opened at the first of this year – is it time to start thinking about a fourth one? A consultant who prepared a draft master plan update for PTIA doesn’t suggest that another runway northwest of the new one is needed anytime soon. But representatives with the consultant, URS Corp. based in Tampa, Fla., told the Piedmont Triad Airport Authority that it should at least keep the possibility open for another runway sometime by the middle of this century. The consultant presented the draft master plan update to the authority during the airport governing board’s meeting Tuesday. The authority will vote on a final version this summer or early fall. Airport officials are updating the master plan for the first time in 16 years to reflect changes with the addition of the FedEx Corp. cargo hub, which opened a year ago, and the new, 9,000-footlong runway.
PUBLIC INPUT
–
Public comments on the draft master plan update for Piedmont Triad International Airport will be accepted through July 13. Copies of the master plan are available for review on the PTIA Web site – www. flyfrompti.com. Copies of the draft also are available at the High Point public library and the High Point city manager’s office at City Hall downtown. “The master plan rides on the shoulders of previous plans,” said Michael Thompson, a project manager with URS. The update will project needs for 30 years or longer and is divided into 10-year phases. Thompson said the consultant doesn’t foresee a need for a new runway, terminal building or major roadways around PTIA for at least the next 20 years. But airport officials should consider land purchases totalling 2,300 acres during the next 30 years to secure property on the northern and
western side of PTIA for future growth, including a possible fourth runway. The airport now covers nearly 4,000 acres. The proposed land acquisition doesn’t include any property in northern High Point. One reflection on how long it can take to fulfill a plan – the first mention of the third runway on airport master plan updates was in 1968, 42 years before the new runway opened. The consultant, recognizing the competition from Charlotte/Douglas International Airport and Raleigh-Durham International Airport, projects a moderate 1 percent annual increase in passenger traffic going forward. The last airport master plan update in 1994 drastically overestimated the number of passengers projected at PTIA. The 1994 update projected total passengers at between 2.4 million and 4.9 million by this year, and up to 5.7 million by 2015. Last year’s actual passenger total ended up at 1.1 million, and passenger numbers are off 10.5 percent through April this year compared to 2009. pjohnson@hpe.com | 888-3528
Guilford debt troubles some commissioners BY DAVID NIVENS ENTERPRISE STAFF
GUILFORD COUNTY – Commissioners are looking more closely at how to pay the $100 million annual debt payments the county will face starting in 2013. County officials will watch debt payments grow the next few years as they pay for school construction, a new jail annex and other projects. As plans stand now, the county will sell bonds or borrow money to pay off what will become $1.2 billion in debt. Meanwhile, county sales tax and property tax revenues are not expected to grow much, according to Guilford County Manager Brenda Jones-Fox. “This is not a bright picture, and we may need to start working on
COUNTY DEBT
–
Bonds: Voters approved construction project lists totaling $457 million for the school district, $79.5 million for Guilford Technical Community College projects and $115 million for the downtown Greensboro jail annex in 2008. Tax base: The county’s $45 billion property tax base is expected to decline by 1.4 percent this year. Bond ratings: AAA by both Moody’s Investors Services and Fitch Ratings. The county’s ratings of its general obligation debt were upgraded from AA-plus by Fitch to AAA and from Aa1 by Moody’s to Aaa. Standard and Poor’s, the other major rating agency, has rated the general obligation debt AAA since 2000. this now,” at-large Commissioner John Parks of High Point said last week during a county budget workshop. “This is reality.” Debt payments will rise from the $41 million the county paid in 2007 to
more than $100 million in 2013. Late last year, Michael Halford, county budget director, said general obligation debt in fiscal years 2011-16 will grow to 18 percent of the operating budget. “The voters approved
this debt,” said Commissioner Kirk Perkins. “It appears we are trying to balance the budget at the expense of arts and other things. We are doing this backwards. We have to find a way to pay for this debt.” In her 2011 budget proposal of $568.9 million, Jones-Fox does not recommend a property tax increase. “It would be irresponsible to raise taxes,” said Commissioner Billy Yow. “We have a lack of revenues and the responsible thing of cutting the budget has been done. We have to make the tough decisions and control expenditures.” Raising the property tax hurts idle workers and those facing home foreclosures, said Guilford Coun-

ty Board of Commissioners Chairman Skip Alston. “The easiest way is to raise taxes,” he said. “We need to be more efficient. There are other ways.” At-large Commissioner Paul Gibson suggested a discussion on raising the local sales tax by a quarter cent. Voters twice turned down a sales tax increase in 2008. “We should have a plan for dealing with this debt,” Gibson said. Jones-Fox said her staff restructures debt during favorable markets to save on interest. “The market has worked in our favor to help us this year,” she said. “It is a work in progress to manage the debt. It is a fine balancing act.” dnivens@hpe.com | 888-3626

NC House gives initial OK to school reform bill RALEIGH (AP) – House members want to give more options to local education leaders to improve more than 130 low-performing schools while assisting Gov. Beverly Perdue in North Carolina’s next application for federal education reform grants. The House gave tentative approval on Tuesday to legislation laying out four ways local districts can retool schools where less than half of the students are meeting expectations in standardized tests. The biggest change would allow districts to give schools the same flexibility as charter schools without making them independent.

RALEIGH (AP) – North Carolina lawmakers are wrestling with whether the state can collect DNA samples from suspects in violent or sex crimes while still protecting the rights of people who haven’t been convicted. A state House committee on Tuesday reviewed expanding a crime-fighting database of DNA samples beyond those already convicted of a felony or sexual battery. A revised version introduced Tuesday would direct police to collect the samples from saliva rather than by drawing blood. Samples would be entered into state and national databases to determine whether a suspect is wanted in other unsolved crimes. The government would be required to destroy the data of people whose charges are dismissed or who were never charged and notify the person that the data was expunged. Twenty-three states already collect DNA samples from those arrested but not yet convicted. “We are not serving the public well unless we use DNA technology to the fullest extent,� N.C. Attorney General Roy Cooper House members.

Brotherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s secret daughter deserves to be revealed
D
ear Abby: I am in shock. My brother, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Paul,â&#x20AC;? invited me to lunch yesterday and introduced me to an 18-year-old girl, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Amy,â&#x20AC;? whom he says is his daughter from a woman other than his wife. Naturally, she was full of questions about me and the rest of the family. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know why Paul chose to reveal Amyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s existence to me â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and only me â&#x20AC;&#x201C; but I told my brother he needs to share his â&#x20AC;&#x153;secretâ&#x20AC;? with all concerned. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fair for Amy to be deprived of meeting her fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s side of the family. I also donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want anyone to get hurt, but Amy has been hurt enough by this secret. I am uncomfortable that my brother has included me in this conspiracy, and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not sure how to handle this. Any ideas? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; In The Middle in New Jersey Dear In The Middle: On some level your brother may want the truth to come out, because when a secret is shared itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no longer a secret. So tell your brother that you refuse to be his co-conspirator, and that you feel his keeping Amy isolated from the family is unfair to her. Then give him a deadline to come clean, with the understanding that if he doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t, you will. Dear Abby: Now that I have found a job
after a few months of unemployment, my boyfriend and I are tying the knot. I ADVICE work in a very small Dear office and Abby would like â&#x2013; â&#x2013; â&#x2013; to invite everyone to bring a date to the reception. My dilemma? I suspect that two of the men in the office are involved with each other, and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not close enough to anyone else to inquire. I have no problem with their sexual orientation, but I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to put my foot in my mouth by inviting them as a couple. What would you think of posting an invitation (postcards and e-vites) to all employees and their dates? I ordinarily wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t, but being a little â&#x20AC;&#x153;gaucheâ&#x20AC;? seems better than being downright rude. I suspect the men downplay their relationship, and I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to invade their privacy. Abby, what would you do? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Bride With A Dilemma Dear Bride: I would handle it by inviting each of my co-workers, stating â&#x20AC;&#x153;and guestâ&#x20AC;? on the invitation, and asking for an RSVP. Then, whomever they choose to bring is up to them, and all Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d need to know is how
8 am and 5 pm â&#x20AC;&#x201C; call before you start to dig.
many guests to expect at the reception. Dear Abby: I have been dating â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lukeâ&#x20AC;? for about three months. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a sweet and thoughtful guy who cares about me, and I care for him as well. My problem is I have never been the kind of person who likes to be touched. It makes me feel tense and uneasy. Luke likes to touch me constantly â&#x20AC;&#x201C; stroking my cheek, rubbing the back of my neck, or kissing my cheeks and forehead. It isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t that I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like hugs or kisses, but too much drives me crazy. How do I explain this to Luke without hurting his feelings? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Enough in The Southwest Dear Enough: A good start would be to say to him exactly what you have communicated to me. And when you do, tell him to please not take your feelings as personal rejection. Different people have different needs for closeness and affection. Because the constant touching makes you uncomfortable, you and Luke must reach a compromise thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s acceptable to both of you â&#x20AC;&#x201C; or youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not the girl for him. DEAR ABBY is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

Hope for neuropathy
D
ear Dr. Donohue: I am a 79-yearold woman with peripheral neuropathy. I have a numb left foot and pain extending the length of my leg and occasionally into the hip. Early in the mornings, as I begin to move about, my leg seizes up, and the pain is intense. I use a heating pad, which eventually eases the pain. I have had diabetes for 30-plus years. It is well-controlled. Any help would be appreciated. – J.H.
BLONDIE
Simplifying peripheral neuropathy invites egregious errors, but I hope it adds to people’s understanding of this condition. “Peripheral” here refers to the arms and legs, mainly the legs. Neuropathy is nerve injury. Nerves that bring messages from the brain to muscles, instructing them to move, are motor nerves. Nerves that bring sensations from the body and body surface to the brain are sensory nerves. And some nerves combine both functions. Neuropathy can affect either kind. Motor nerve impairment leads to muscle weakness, even to the point where muscles no longer work. Sensory nerve impairment brings numbness, peculiar sensations or outright pain. You have predominantly sensory nerve involvement. The “seizing up” you describe is a muscle cramp, and that sometimes is part of the neuropathy picture. Diabetes, deficiencies of some of the B vitamins, an autoimmune attack

on nerves, excessive intake of alcohol and some inherited conditions lead to neuHEALTH ropathies. AntideDr. Paul pressants Donohue can allevi■■■ ate neuropathic pain. Amitriptyline and Cymbalta are two that are often prescribed. Seizure-control drugs like Lyrica and Tegretol also suppress it. Capsaicin cream (Zostrix, no prescription needed) applied to the painful area can bring relief. Lidoderm patches and lidocaine gel, products related to Novocain, offer easing of pain. If routine pain medicines are ineffective and the pain is severe and disruptive, drugs like oxycodone and tramadol (morphinelike drugs) can be prescribed and should not be feared. Get in touch with the Neuropathy Association. It provides you with more-extensive explanations and guides you in treatments. The phone number is 800-247-6968 and the website is www. neuropathy.org. Dear Dr. Donohue: I am writing about two recent columns. One was from a woman diagnosed with trichomonas. I find it disturbing that you did not take advantage of the opportunity to educate your readers. She said she knew all her male partners pretty well, and
they held responsible positions in the business world. She took for granted that they would not pass along a sexually transmitted disease. I am an HIV-positive woman and a national HIV educator. I am middle-class and am constantly faced with people who think they can make these assumptions and have unprotected sex. As a result of this obliviousness, many contract sexually transmitted diseases, including HIV. I understand that you cannot print this entire letter, but I hope you will address the serious issue of unprotected sex, especially in those who think they can choose partners based on how someone looks. – V.W. I believed the woman’s plight was self-explanatory. Your message comes through clearly. It is a good one. Many, both male and female, think their chances of coming down with a sexually transmitted disease are remote. STDs are very prevalent and do not distinguish the welldressed from the poorly dressed, the educated from the uneducated, the rich from the poor or the young from the old. Casual sex without protection is an invitation to trouble. 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

Thai-Style Chicken Wraps with Mango Salsa are easy to eat while maintaining a level of sophistication. These wraps are great for a dinner alfresco.

Thai-Style Chicken Wraps with Mango Salsa
ummer meals are best when they are simple. But that doesn’t mean you have to give up sophisticated flavors. Thai-style chicken wraps are an exotic all-in-one, a handheld meal that contains protein, salad and starch rolled up into a neat package that’s perfect for outdoor dining. All you’ll need are some plates, napkins and a few forks for the sweet and tangy mango salsa that accompanies the wraps. If you’re planning a picnic, you can refrigerate the wraps and serve them cold. Skip the salsa to make for easy packing. Or if you like, serve it in disposable cups with plastic forks.
Start to finish: 30 minutes Servings: 4 For the salsa: 1 small mango, peeled and diced 2 tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh cilantro 1 tablespoon lime juice For the wraps: 1 1/2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil 3 cups shredded Napa cabbage 1 cup shredded carrots 3/4 cup sliced scallions 3/4 cup lightly salted peanuts, coarsely chopped 2 tablespoons lime juice
1 tablespoon soy sauce 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper 2 cups shredded cooked chicken 1/2 cup coarsely chopped fresh mint 4 burrito-size (large) flour tortillas 1/4 cup purchased peanut sauce To make the salsa, in a small bowl, stir together the mango, cilantro and lime juice. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve. To make the wraps, in a large skillet over medium-high, heat the sesame oil. Add cabbage and carrots and saute until the vegetables begin to soften, about 2 minutes. Stir in the scallions and peanuts. Add the lime juice, soy sauce and black pepper, then saute until the mixture is heated through, about 2 minutes longer.
Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the chicken and mint. Spread the center of each tortilla with about 1 tablespoon of peanut sauce. Top with a quarter of the chicken filling. Fold in 2 ends of the tortilla, then roll up. Place the wraps on a microwave safe plate, seam-side down. Heat the wraps in the microwave on high until heated through, about 90 seconds, or in a 350-degree oven for about 5 minutes. Serve with the mango salsa.

Or you can grill it BY J.M. HIRSCH AP FOOD EDITOR
M
ost chicken burgers suffer from a dry, mealy texture, qualities that don’t quite scream summer grilling fun. Blame the bird. Ground chicken generally has little or no fat. So by the time you’re done manhandling ground chicken into a patty and tossing it on the grill, you end up with a pretty forgettable burger. You could keep it moist by adding cheese. Of course, if you’re just adding saturated fat, why not just do a beef burger? But I recently learned a trick from Christopher Kimball, founder and editor of Cook’s Illustrated magazine, that fixes the flaw. When Kimball makes beef burgers, he skips ground beef and instead chops (note that I didn’t say
grinds) his own sirloin and beef ribs in a food processor. The result is a magnificently chunky, moist burger. I decided to try the same technique with chicken breasts. The result was great. The burgers were delicious and moist. And that’s because, like Kimball’s beef burgers, mine were made from chunks of chicken, not ground meat. The catch is that, also like Kimball’s burgers, prior to cooking my chicken burgers were very moist and delicate. When you form the patties, they will seem gloopy. Rest assured, once they hit the grill, they firm up fine and flip with no trouble. I flavored this burger with curry powder and topped it with sliced avocado, but both could easily be left out for a more traditional taste.

The school of experience would be easier if there were occasional vacations, but becoming a winning player is an ongoing process. At today’s slam South opted to try for a crossruff. He could ruff three spades in dummy and pitch one on a high club. South therefore took his high clubs, throwing a spade. He would have had a chance even if a defender ruffed, but East-West followed politely. South next took the ace of spades and ruffed a spade, but East unkindly overruffed with the queen and led a trump. South could then ruff one more spade in dummy, but he lost a spade to West’s king at the end. Down one.
PAINFUL It was a painful experience for South, but maybe he learned something about planning. After he takes the ace of spades, he can ruff a spade with the ace of trumps, ruff a diamond and ruff a spade with the king. South then ruffs a diamond and ruffs his last spade in dummy. East can overruff or discard, but his queen of trumps wins the defenders’ only trick.

DAILY QUESTION You hold: S 5 H A K 7 D Q 10 5 4 3 C A Q 7 4. You open one diamond, and your partner bids one heart. The opponents pass. What do you say? ANSWER: Partner’s response improved your hand, but not enough to insist on game. Hence you can’t jump-shift to three clubs, nor can you jump to three hearts. Bid two clubs. If partner returns to two diamonds, you’ll bid two hearts to show extra strength. If you had 5, A K 7, Q 10 5 4 3, K 8 7 4, you’d raise directly to two hearts. South dealer Both sides vulnerable

Showing how much you care about your friends and family will lead to greater appreciation and needed assistance. ★★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Strive for perfection and you will discover that with your success comes greater control and power. Speak from the heart and everyone will relate to what you have to say. A good partnership will add to what you are already offering. ★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Set up interviews or answer ads and you will get a favorable response. Offer your skills and services and don’t be afraid to brag about what you have done, want to do and can offer. You will get the backing you need and a chance to develop something you’ve always wanted to do. ★★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): A relationship you cherish will grow stronger if you are open about your intentions and how you are going to implement your plans. Get involved in something you believe in and you will broaden your awareness and make new friends with something to offer in return. ★★★★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Stand up for your beliefs and refuse to let anyone blackmail you into something you find distasteful. Someone with a greedy past will take advantage of your generosity. It may be time to cut the strings that tie you together. ★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Don’t take anyone’s word when your future may be affected. Go to the source and find out exactly what’s happening so you can take a positive position and benefit the most.

Someone from your past may want to reconnect. Question the motives behind the sudden interest. ★★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): See what’s going on with the people you have lost touch with. You’ll be surprised by the response you get and the opportunities that arise. A greater interest in a partnership will lead to stability and security. ★★★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): If someone pushes you emotionally, let your true feelings be known. Honesty may not always be easy but it is likely to be your best bet when dealing with personal matters. Move in a healthier and more secure financial direction. ★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Love is in a high cycle and, with a little additional attention, you will make positive alterations, influencing the way you are treated. If someone doesn’t approve of what you are doing, it may be time to back away. ★★★★★ 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.

Bobcats claw War Eagles BY DANIEL KENNEDY SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE
WINSTON-SALEM – Glenn softball coach Aldine Payne stepped away from the thick of the 4A softball playoffs Tuesday to tend to his ailing father-in-law. A pregame moment of silence served as a solemn reminder that the Bobcats were without their leader. If only for a matter of seconds, spectators quietly wondered how Glenn would respond to begin its third-round contest with Davie County (16-13). Kat Zimmer left no doubt in anyone’s mind whether the Bobcats were ready to play, as she threw a onehitter to blank the War Eagles 5-0. “This game was a little bit different,” Zimmer said. “Coach Payne says things to keep me motivated. Since he wasn’t here, I just had to not get outside myself.” Zimmer overpowered Davie’s hitters with an electric fastball and impeccable command that enabled her to move the ball in and out while blowing through the Eagles’ lineup. She pitched all seven innings, allowed the one hit and struck out nine. “We’ve depended on her a lot,” Bobcats coach Mike Lauten said of his starter. “She actually pitches better the more game she

Kristen Terry and Meagan Tilley (6) celebrate after forcing a Davie County out in the Bobcats’ 5-0 victory in the NCHSAA 4A playoffs Tuesday night. throws in a week.” Glenn’s offense handed their starter all the offense she would need in the first two innings – jumping out to a 4-0 lead before tacking on the final run in the fifth. Kristen Terry got things started in her first time at the plate. Having drawn a leadoff walk, Terry wasted no time in stealing second base to put herself in scoring position.
That swipe of second – combined with an error on the throw that put her on third – allowed her to score on Megan Mabe’s shallow single to right field to tally the first run of the game. In the second, Zimmer and Megan Mabe took advantage of War Eagles’ starter Grace Loefflerby following up Karen Branscombe’s RBI groundout with a pair of run-scoring singles.
“We had a game plan, everything followed just like we wanted it to,” Lauten said. “Coach Payne put us in this position. All it came down to was repetition.” Glenn (26-2) will seek to avenge an earlier loss, as the team plays host to undefeated North Davidson Friday at 7 p.m. North downed East Forsyth 2-0 on Tuesday to improve to 27-0
“North Davidson beat us the first game of the season. We’re one win away from the final four here, so everybody is good,” Lauten reasoned of the upcoming game prior to the realization the Black Knights had beaten East. He added: “It doesn’t make any difference who we play. We’re going to go to work tomorrow and prepare for whoever that may be.”
Suire to invite Dorzweiler back this summer minus the interim tag. “Me and Greg Suire put a lot of work in in the offseason – we hit the recruiting trail as soon as we got done in Forest City (in the team’s final game of 2009),” Dorzweiler said. “We’ve put a lot of time in getting prepared – knowing what mistakes were made last year, to correct that – and we’ve got just a bright avenue ahead of us to get back on our winning way.” The main theme for this summer will be team unity so the HiToms play well together. “I think Coach Dorzweiler has done a good job of making it more fun and enjoyable for us,” Barbeck said. “He knows we’re going to play on the field – that’s not a problem.” Among the other themes: speed up and down the lineup and a pitching rotation dominated by ACC arms. Four North Carolina Tar Heels will toe the rubber for the HiToms this year. Nate Striz, Cody Penny and Mount Tabor High’s Parker Thomas are right-handers, with Zach Bernard offering up a lefty option. N.C. State’s Ethan Ogburn – a former Southwest Guilford star – also will pitch this summer, along with Wake Forest’s Ryan
McGrath. Other key arms will be Barbeck and LSU’s Jordan Rittiner, both lefties. “We’re very well-loaded pitching wise, and we’ve done a lot trying to get more involved locally and with the ACC,” Dorzweiler said. Appalachian State’s Kassouf (North Davidson High), High Point’s White (Ledford) and Guilford Tech’s Matt Dillon (Trinity) bring plenty of local flavor along with former Wesleyan Christian Academy standout Clint Ingram (Campbell) and Westchester Country Day’s Jacob Cadle (Greensboro College). White – still competing for HPU in the Big South Conference Tournament – and Dillon each played for the American Legion Baseball Post 87 Junior HiToms at Finch Field. “It’s different,” Dillon said Tuesday during the HiToms’ media day. “My first day being here was Sunday and it’s just a dramatic change. The expectations are a lot higher for this team than Legion, but it’s what I’ve been working for and waiting on.” The roster will have a fluid look from today’s opener at Martinsville and Thursday’s 7 p.m. debut at Finch Field against Forest City moving forward into June. Some players will leave as
others arrive when their college teams lose out in conference tournaments and the NCAA Regionals. Other key performers on the infield are expected to be Louisville’s Zak Wasserman and Kyle Grieshaber, Tennessee’s Khayyan Norfork, Duke’s Eric Brady, and Michael Patman of Butler (Okla.) Community College. Standouts in the outfield are should be Rob Froio of Lafayette, Cass Hargis of Southeast Louisiana and Chris Fritts of Tennessee. Behind the plate will be Davidson’s Seth Freeman and Wofford’s Dave Roney. The CPL has grown to 15 teams for the second time as it enters its 14th season. The Morehead City Marlins begin play this summer in the south division, with Wilson shifting from the south to the north to make for three five-team groups. The HiToms’ 56-game schedule includes another heavily loaded slate against west division squads Asheboro, Forest City, Gastonia and Martinsville. “After this first week or two, when we start getting our main team here, we’ll be OK,” Dorzweiler said. “We’re ready to lace ‘em up and get going.” shanf@hpe.com | 888-3526

he players continue trickling in to Finch Field, even as the Thomasville HiToms’ 12th season in the Coastal Plain League opens tonight. The fun that marked three straight CPL championships from 2006-08 seems to have returned already after a challenging 2009 SPORTS campaign. “Go out and have Steve fun. It’s baseball Hanf – we’ve played ■■■ the same game since we were in teeball,” HiToms pitcher Kyle Barbeck said. “Nothing changes. Definitely enjoy it a lot more than last year and hopefully we’ll win again.” Barbeck is among a returning group that includes local stars Murray White IV and Daniel Kassouf. They entered last year with high hopes for another recordbreaking summer in the woodenbat league for college standouts, but saw uncharacteristic struggles mount. Manager Ray Greene was let go in July in favor of assistant Tom Dorzweiler. The HiToms managed to finish 26-29 and just make the playoffs, leading team president Greg

or decades, non-Big Four schools have contended the Big Four enjoys a huge edge whenever the ACC Men’s Basketball Tournament is played in Greensboro. History shows that argument may hold some merit, as Duke, North Carolina, N.C. State and Wake Forest all captured multiple tourney crowns in the Gate City. The Blue Devils and Tar Heels in particular own stellar league tournament records in Greensboro. But don’t look for similar concerns when the ACC Baseball Tournament swings into
action today at Greensboro’s NewBridge Bank Park. The Wolfpack is the only Big Four team participating. North Carolina, Wake and Duke failed to qualify for the five-day, round-robin event. That doesn’t mean the tournament lacks the potential for drama and excitement. Weather permitting, there will be games at noon, 4 and 8 today through Saturday. The winner of each four-team division will meet on Sunday at 1 p.m. for the crown. The ACC’s top five regular-season finish-
ers – Virginia, Georgia Tech, Miami, Florida State and Clemson – rank as legitimate College World Series contenders. The other three schools – Virginia Tech, N.C. State and Boston College – need a tournament title, or at least a solid Greensboro run, to punch their NCAA Tournament ticket. So look for plenty of great action at NewBridge Bank Park – even without the Tar Heels, Demon Deacons or Blue Devils.

Richard Marshall couldn’t stay away. The competitive fire, pride and sense of responsibility to his teammates eventually overwhelmed the business aspect of his life that saw the Carolina Panthers cornerback become one of the casualties of the NFL’s labor strife. So after skipping the team’s offseason conditioning program and not showing up to last month’s minicamp, Marshall is on the field this week for voluntary workouts despite no sign of a long-term deal. “I was never angry,” Marshall insisted Tuesday. After moving into the starting lineup last season and tying for the team lead with four interceptions, Marshall probably would have received a significant payday this offseason — under normal circumstances. With four years of service, he would’ve been an unrestricted free agent if owners hadn’t ended the collective bargaining agreement early. When they did and implemented no salary cap this season, new rules went into effect, including one that requires six years of service to be an unrestricted free agent.

Roddick overcomes ugliness in French opener PARIS (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Andy Roddick slipped, then kicked the dirt. He chirped at the umpire about a call. When an unlucky bounce cost him a key point, he waved his arms in disgust. And at the finish, he raised his fist to celebrate a French Open triumph. Roddickâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s clay-court season began Tuesday, and he endured repeated frustrations on his worst surface before rallying past Jarkko Nieminen in the first round, 6-2, 4-6, 4-6, 7-6 (4), 6-3. The match was Roddickâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first on clay since he lost in the fourth round at Roland Garros last year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There was a lot of ugliness out there today,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But, you know, at the end of it, I get to play again. You go into a day hoping to get through a day, and I got through today.â&#x20AC;? Seeded sixth, Roddick barely avoided losing his opening French Open match for the fifth time. Instead, he earned his first five-set win in the tournament since 2001, the first year he competed, when he beat Michael Chang in the second round.
first for Nadal at Roland Garros since he lost to Robin Soderling in the fourth round last year. Justine Henin took a big step in her return from retirement, beating Tsvetana Pironkova 6-4, 6-3. The match was Heninâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first at Roland Garros since 2007, when she won the tournament for the fourth time. Kimiko Date Krumm also made a successful Roland Garros comeback, beating two-time runner-up Dinara Safina 3-6, 6-4, 7-5. The 39-year-old Date Krumm is the second-oldest woman to win a match in the tournament. She ended a 12-year retirement in 2008, was playing in the French Open for the first time since 1996. Maria Sharapova began another bid for the only major title she has yet to win by defeating qualifier KseAP nia Pervak 6-3, 6-2. Andy Roddick returns the ball to Jarkko Nieminen durOther seeded women advancing included No. 13 ing a first-round match in the French Open on Tuesday. Marion Bartoli, No. 16 Yanina Wickmayer, No. 18 No. 2-seeded Rafael Nadal began his bid for a fifth Shahar Peer, No. 21 Vera Zvonareva, No. 23 Daniela French Open title by beating 18-year-old wild card Gi- Hantuchova, No. 25 Zheng Jie and No. 29 Anastasia anna Mina of France, 6-2, 6-2, 6-2.

Orlando looks to apply pressure ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The Philadelphia Flyers cap Celtics forward Rasheed Wallace has been wearing to support his hometown team might not be something Boston fans want to see. Especially now. More than a week after the Bruins blew an 0-3 series lead to the Flyers, the Celtics are getting
an unwanted trip back to Orlando. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll try to close out the Magic again Wednesday night or put a city that knows all too well about such comebacks halfway to their latest installment. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It can be done,â&#x20AC;? said Magic guard Jameer Nelson, a St. Josephâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s alum who grew up outside Philly.

Formula One set for return to U.S. in 2012 AUSTIN, Texas (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Formula One racing is coming back to the United States in 2012 with a longterm deal to race in Austin on a track built specifically for the event. Formula One, city and Texas state officials announced the agreement Tuesday, saying Austin would host the U.S. Grand Prix until 2021. The race was dropped after an eight-year run at Indianapolis Motor Speedway from 2000-2007 with mixed results. Formula One president Bernie Ecclestone said the race in the Texas capital would mark the first time a course would be built specifically for an F1 race in the United States. Before its run in Indianapolis, Formula One had been hosted by Long Beach, Las Vegas, Detroit, Dallas and Phoenix on city street circuits. The race at Indianapolis
Only four times in the history of North American major pro sports leagues has a team won a playoff series after losing the first three games. Of course, that might not mean much to Boston fans. It has happened three times in the NHL â&#x20AC;&#x201D; most recently by the Flyers â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and once in baseball.
Motor Speedway was run on a course that combined an infield road with the 2.5-mile oval. Tavo Hellmund, managing partner of race promoter Full Throttle Productions, said the Austin track and grandstand would be built â&#x20AC;&#x153;within 10 milesâ&#x20AC;? of the Austin airport. Hellmund said the track will be at least 3 miles long. He declined to release further details, including the size of the grandstand and total cost.

Dip in housing prices renews fears NEW YORK (AP) – The housing slump isn’t over. Tax credits and historically low mortgage rates have failed to lift home prices so far this year. Prices fell 0.5 percent in March from February, according to the Standard & Poor’s/Case-Shiller 20-city index released Tuesday . The co-creator of the Case-Shiller index, who predicted in 2005 that the housing bubble would burst, is raising concerns that the worst isn’t over. That fear is shared by other economists who point to weak job growth, tight credit and many more foreclosures ahead. “I’m worried still about the risk of a double-dip,” economist Robert Shiller said in an interview.

EU: Europe needs major reforms BRUSSELS – Europe’s economy will stagnate unless governments make major reforms to boost growth – just as they rein in spending to curb soaring debt levels, the European Union’s economy chief warned Tuesday. Low growth prospects and rocketing debt in many of the EU’s 27 nations have alarmed financial markets in recent months, causing stocks to slide and the euro to fall sharply in value to a four-year low against the U.S. dollar.
AutoZone income climbs on brisk sales NEW YORK – AutoZone Inc. said Tuesday that strong sales of automotive replacement parts and several new store openings helped drive net income up 17 percent in its fiscal third quarter. The results breezed past analyst projections, sending shares up $9.01, or 4.9 percent, to $193.26 in morning trading even as the broader markets tumbled.
Stocks, Korea bring down oil prices NEW YORK – Oil prices continued their three-week slide on Tuesday, pulled down by falling global stock markets, a declining euro and saber-rattling in Korea. Benchmark crude for July delivery dropped $1.82 to $68.39 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. On Monday the contract rose 17 cents to settle at $70.21. ENTERPRISE NEWS SERVICE REPORTS

The month-to-month drop from February to March marked the sixth straight decline. Prices in 13 of the cities fell. Only six metro areas recorded price gains. One, Boston, came in flat. In the first quarter of 2010, U.S. home prices fell 3.2 percent compared with the fourth quarter. Prices remain nearly 31 percent below their July 2006 peak. But they have risen nearly 3 percent from their April 2009 bottom. The numbers are especially disturbing because they show that improved sales due to the tax credits didn’t translate into higher prices, said David M. Blitzer, Chairman of the S&P index committee.
Falling home prices haven’t kept consumers from keeping an optimistic view of the economy. A separate report Tuesday showed consumer confidence rose in May for the third straight month as hopes for job growth improved. The increase in the Conference Board’s Consumer Confidence Index was boosted by consumers’ brighter outlook for the next six months. In a healthier economy, extraordinarily low mortgage rates would pump up demand for homes. But economists say jobs remain too few and loans hard to get for small businesses and many individuals.
Consumer confidence rises in May NEW YORK (AP) – Americans’ confidence in the economy rose in May for the third straight month, fueled by growing optimism about future job prospects. Still, many worry improvements in shoppers’ mood and spending may be reversed because of sharp declines on Wall Street fueled by fears that a debt crisis in Europe could hammer global growth. Already, there are signs pointing to a weakening business at stores in May after a solid spring season. The Conference Board, based in New York, said Tuesday that its Consumer Confidence Index rose to 63.3, up from a revised 57.7 reading in April. Economists surveyed by Thomson Reuters had expected 59.
The increase was boosted by consumers’ outlook over the next six months, one component of the index, which soared to 85.3 from 77.4, the highest seen since it reached 89.2 in August 2007, before the economy entered in a recession. The other component of the index, which measures how shoppers feel now about the economy, rose to 30.2 from 28.2. The index – which measures how consumers feel about business conditions, the job market and the next six months – has been recovering fitfully since hitting an all-time low of 25.3 in February 2009. A reading above 90 indicates the economy is on solid footing; above 100 signals strong growth.
FedEx to offer same-sex benefits MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) – Shipping giant FedEx will offer health insurance to same-sex domestic partners. Company spokeswoman Sandra Munoz told The Commercial Appeal the benefit becomes available on Jan. 1, 2012, and is something employees have requested. Munoz said it will take time for FedEx – Memphis’ largest private employer – to add the benefit to a package that was cut to weather the recession. The benefit will be offered to
all FedEx employees in the U.S. – about 225,000 workers. About 30,000 of them work in Memphis. The company already offers same-sex health coverage to workers in California and in its division FedEx Office. Munoz said the benefit won’t be available to unmarried heterosexual couples. Tennessee Equality Project chairman-elect Jonathan Cole said if a company welcomes gays and lesbians, it gains a reputation as recognizing all diversity.

NEW YORK (AP) – A rally pushed the Dow Jones industrials back over 10,000 after the stock market sank to its lowest level of the year Tuesday. The late-day rebound did nothing to erase lingering worries about Europe’s debt crisis. The Dow plunged more than 250 points after the opening bell and stayed under 10,000 most of the day, then charged back to finish down only 22 when signals from Washington suggested banks would not be forced to sell their lucrative derivatives units as part of financial reform. The Standard & Poor’s 500 index even managed a slight gain. But investors are still concerned about European debt, and that’s likely to mean more turbulent days like Tuesday. “It seems like the Europeans are playing ’tag, you’re it’ – first it was Greece, and now it’s maybe Spain or Portugal,” said Jonathan Corpina, a New York Stock Exchange floor trader and president of Meridian Equity Partners. “We know someone else is next.” Besides the financial crisis in Europe, investors were reminded that political issues, such as tension between North and South Korea, can threaten economic growth. Analysts said the unresolved Gulf of Mexico oil spill also contributed to the foul mood.
