through today, starting at 2:30 p.m. and ending at 9:30 p.m. Rick Lee, who is sponsored by Winston-Salem-based Mock Orange Bikes (MOB), is one of the cyclists who took to the streets Friday. He said he competes in about 30 to 50 criteriums a year and was drawn to the sport because of its individual nature. “With cycling, I don’t have to rely on others to show up,” Lee said. “I train by myself.” Angela Craven, who was a course marshal for the event as well as a team member of MOB, had a

hand in developing the event. She attributes the idea of bringing the races to the furniture capital to Chip Duckett, owner of Mock Orange Bikes and a High Point native. “It was Duckett’s dream to help High Point out and to see the city come to life beside the week of market,” Craven said. Jim Martin, who is responsible for organizing the Piedmont Triad Omnium in Lexington, teamed up with Duckett to help organize the event. The two work together through the Piedmont Charities Sports Promotion,

Oak Hill teacher selected rookie of the year ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

HIGH POINT – Stacy Brady believed her students could do anything. And they proved it. Brady’s Oak Hill Elementary students improved more than 20 percentage points in reading or scored 10 points higher than other third-grade classrooms on a recent benchmark assessment. “Students come in with all kinds of labels, behavior and low socioeconomic backgrounds – but that is not who they are,” Brady said. “Students are more than their labels and can do anything if you believe they can.” For her ability to motivate students and serve as an example for other

demic progress with data notebooks, Brady was an example for the program. She holds her students to very high standards and encourages them to keep each other accountable for their progress and their actions. “Set high standards for your students, including academic goals and social expectations,” Brady said. “Most importantly, model the achievements you want to see in your students by achieving your own goals. Be the person you want 16 others to be.” Brady said she quickly realized in her first year of teaching that she needed to build a foundation of trust for her students to succeed. She formed a

demic problem in North Carolina,” said Alexandra Forter Sirota, a policy analyst with the N.C. Justice Center’s Budget & Tax Center in Raleigh. The median length of unemployment was 16.5 weeks in 2009, up from seven weeks at the beginning of the recession in late 2007, Sirota said. Another reflection of the impact of the recession is the regional jobless rate, said Robert Ware, ESC regional manager out of Greensboro. The jobless rate for the Piedmont Triad was 5.3 percent in March 2008 as the impact of the recession began to take hold. In March of this year, the regional jobless rate reached 11.4 percent, Ware said.

Also, the city unemployment rate is below the level of 11 percent in April last year. Davidson County, which has one of the highest jobless levels in the Piedmont, had its unemployment rate fall from 13.1 percent in March to 12.1 percent last month. Randolph County’s rate fell from 11.8 percent to 10.5 percent, while Guilford County’s rate dropped from 11.1 percent to 10.4 percent, according to ESC figures.

Cunningham wants to put Tarheels back to work It’s not often that we get a second chance to do something positive for ourselves, the people of North Carolina and our nation, but that opportunity is coming June 22 (early voting June 3-19) in a runoff election to see who will face Richard Burr for a seat in the U.S. Senate. And rarely does a candidate come forward for elective office with a combination of character, integrity and vision coupled with a clear plan to solve the problems before the people. Cal Cunningham is such a person. He knows people are working hard – at maybe two or three jobs – but still can’t pay the bills. He knows that taxes are too high and create a roadblock for families who struggle to make ends meet. He knows the importance of faith and lives by its teachings. He cares deeply for others and reaches out to those in need with specific strategies for creating new jobs within our state. Putting people back to work is a top priority. He believes elective office is a public trust and views himself a servant of the people.

and he himself, turned their backs on the U.S. and sided with Mexico. Almost all the Democrats stood and clapped for the president of Mexico when he berated the U.S. for law and order in Arizona and the same laws that have always been enacted in U.S. These people are stupid or evil and hate the U.S. and kiss up to nations that are out to destroy us.

We should not put lethal injection’s needle to people suffering from severe mental disabilities. So we applaud Durham Reps. Paul Luebke and Larry Hall and Orange’s Verla Insko and Bill Faison for sponsoring House Bill 137, an act that would take the death penalty off the table for people with severe mental illnesses or disabilities. Our local delegates are also leading in the Senate: Orange County’s Sen. Ellie Kinnaird, supported by our Sens. Bob Atwater and Floyd McKissick Jr., is sponsoring Senate Bill 309, which mirrors the House legislation. Now they have to get it passed in the short session. The legislation picked up some support recently after David Kaczynski came to North Carolina. Between 1978 and 1995, David Kaczynski’s brother, Ted, mailed 16 bombs, killing three people and injuring 22. After The New York Times published portions of Ted Kaczynski’s manifesto, David Kaczynski recognized his brother’s writing style and alerted investigators. A court-appointed psychologist said Ted Kaczynski, a university mathematician, suffers from paranoid schizophrenia, a diagnosis that Ted Kaczynski rejected. Although thenU.S. Attorney General Janet Reno pressed for the death penalty in his case, the Justice Department eventually offered a life sentence in exchange for guilty pleas. Deeply troubled by the idea that he might have condemned his brother to death, David Kaczynski began to publicly oppose the death penalty, and eventually became executive director of New Yorkers For Alternatives to the Death Penalty. The Kaczynski family’s story is powerful in part because it is so well-known. But the same story plays out on smaller stages in North Carolina – and the scale of the story shouldn’t affect our judgment. Surely we can pass a law that serves justice, removes murderers from society, but still allows that they were not acting with their full faculties. We should not put the needle to anyone – our justice system is imperfect and lethal injection is an irretrievable act. But until we can afford the mental health courts that would identify and divert potentially dangerous offenders into well-funded treatment programs, passing H.B. 137 and S.B. 309 is the least we can do.

Abandoned hospital to be put back into service Non-profit affiliated with Roman Catholic Church takes over facility closed by Hurricane Katrina Lindy Boggs Medical Center flooded badly during Hurricane Katrina and never reopened.

NEW ORLEANS (AP) – A nonprofit affiliated with the Roman Catholic Church has purchased a hospital that was abandoned after Hurricane Katrina and plans to put it back into service. St. Margaret’s Daughters will open the former Lindy Boggs Medical Center late next year or early 2012 with a 116-bed nursing and a small surgical hospital, home. Later, the agency wants to said St. Margaret’s chief execuadd medical offices, clinic spaces tive Larry Stansberry.

The plan is based on the model of St. Luke’s Medical Center, a smaller facility that St. Margaret’s opened earlier this year in New Orleans. That center currently has about 40 nursing home clients, along with a sleep clinic, a cardiac clinic and a geriatric psychiatric facility, and plans to soon open a pharmacy. Lindy Boggs Medical Center flooded badly during Hurricane

Katrina and never reopened. Its owner, Tenet Healthcare Corp., sold it to a Georgia company intending a major retail development, but the project never materialized. St. Margaret’s, an independent Catholic health care provider operating in New Orleans since 1931, purchased the site for $4.2 million, according to real estate records.

The American Heritage dictionary Ecclesiastes 3: 1-2 deďŹ nes the word “fairâ€? as “having or exhibiting a disposition that is free of favoritism or bias; impartial.â€? Fairness is an important character trait anywhere justice is expected, and indeed, the Bible is full of lessons and instructions which aim at inculcating fairness. Consider the Golden Rule: “And as you wish that men would These things I have spoken unto do to you, do so to them.â€? (Luke 6.31) you, that in me ye might have Treating others the way that you want peace. In the world ye shall have to be treated is one way to exhibit tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world. fairness. Consider also the many John 16:33 lessons where Jesus challenged his disciples to give up their culturally conditioned prejudices. Jews living in Palestine at the time of Jesus thought very poorly of Samaritans, who were considered “half-breedsâ€? (i.e., Jews who had married with the non-Jewish natives of Samaria), and so when Jesus tells the parable of the good Samaritan he is trying to tell his disciples that even these people who were habitually thought of as contemptible might behave better than the so-called paragons of virtue within their own culture. On another occasion, Jesus’ willingness to speak to the Samaritan woman at the well is a further lesson in giving up one’s cultural bias in favor of fairness or impartiality, since not only is she a Samaritan, but even worse, she was a woman at a time when women were thought unworthy of a man’s conversation. So, we should take a lesson from Jesus and treat everyone with fairness and impartiality.

Our honored dead must never be forgotten

THE BAR IS OPEN

I have staked my hope of heaven through faith in Jesus Christ in His own words spoken to Martha, the sister of Mary and Lazarus, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live� (John 11.25). I do not know of any words ever spoken that offer that kind of eternal hope and salvation. Jesus backed up all He taught and demonstrated its validity by His own resurrection and life. I concur with Martha’s words as she answered the question of Jesus,

to become the privilege of all Americans as a special day for honoring and remembering those who have died. Once more, this Memorial Day, I look forward to remembering my family and friends who are deceased. It will be a time to remember and reflect upon the lives of those who made life a more blessed experience for us who live and remain. Memory is that superb recollection ability that Francis Fauvel-Gourand identified as “What God gives us so that we might have roses in December.�

hen the people of America were giving birth to a new nation, under God, it suffered all that could ever be experienced in the birthing process. It was never easy or without pain, suffering, sacrifice and death. On the last Monday and day of this month, thousands will visit the places where our dead are buried. There will be gatherings at military cemeteries across the nation as well as in Arlington Cemetery in our nation’s capital. In cemeteries, there will be music, speeches, parades, flags, the sound of guns, playing of taps, prayer and the recounting of the meaning of this special day. Christians, the believers in Jesus Christ, have hope of the Day of Resurrection when all the dead in Christ will rise with their new spiritual and eternal bodies. One example of the stark contrast between life as we have known it and what it will be like following the resurrection is summed up in the words of a great servant of mankind who was physically blind. Here are the defining words of Helen Keller (read her story if you are not acquainted with it) who said, “Death . . . is no more than passing from one room into another. But there’s a difference for me, you know. Because in that other room I shall be able to see.�

down and maintain them. “I think the community is embracing it, and I’m excited for the action,” Alexander said. “I think seeing the flags up will stimulate more people to purchase flags, and I think it makes a great statement about our community.” Alexander said 50 flags have been purchased so far, and the project has room to display 77 between Russell and Montlieu avenues. A second phase could accommodate flags along major cross streets off Main Street. The city plans to leave the flags up through the Fourth of July, then take them down and have them back up for Veteran’s Day, according to Assistant City Manager Randy McCaslin.

Individuals, civic clubs and some businesses have so far purchased flags. A possible future phase of the project would entail some sort of display to list the names of those honored on the Avenue of Flags. “A lot of people have been contacting us, saying they want to honor their father, grandfather, brother or someone else in the community,” Alexander said. “There are still plenty of opportunities for people to honor someone.” For more information about the Avenue of Flags project or to obtain an order form, contact Latimer Alexander at latimeralexanderiv@gmail.com.

ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

HIGH POINT – High Point Regional Health System recently was recognized for excellence in advertising and for its antismoking efforts. The hospital received two bronze awards for the 2010 Aster Awards competition. “Receiving two Aster Awards for our Total Care campaign is an honor,” said Aaron Wall, public relations and marketing manager of High Point Regional. The awards gave credit to High Point Regional’s Total Care campaign in the TV and magazine advertising categories. The Aster Awards is one of the largest national competitions to recognize health-care professionals for excellence in their marketing or advertising efforts. For 2010, the awards received about 3,000 entries from the U.S., Canada and South America. High Point Regional Health System went up against organizations similar in size to their own organization and were judged on such aspects as creativity, production quality, layout and design, functionality, message effectiveness, and overall design. Wall added that “this campaign strategically and creatively illustrates how we get to know our patients first as people.” The hospital also was recognized by N.C. Prevention Partners for providing the highest standard of excellence for tobacco cessation programs offered to its employees. “Since we became a tobaccofree campus, we have tailored our efforts to not only provide a smoke-free environment, but support our employees in their effort and commitment to adopting healthier lifestyle choices,” said Latrice Bankhead, health and wellness coordinator for High Point Regional Health System. Hospitals receiving the acknowledgment are considered Gold Star Standard Hospitals. NCPP is working with state hospital corporate leaders and staff to enhance tobacco cessation efforts and resources available to all hospital employees and patients.

Sisters clash over boyfriend’s homework help

D

ear Abby: I’m an “A� student, but my boyfriend, “Rory,� has a difficult time in school, so he often comes over for help. We work at the computer in the room my sister and I share so she listens to everything we discuss. She says we are cheating because I’m doing most of his homework for him. I don’t give Rory the answers to questions, but I do give him “hints� and tell him where he’s likely to find the answers in the textbooks. I always check that the answers are correct. With his math homework, I tell him each step he needs to take, but he actually does the math himself and then I check for accuracy. If he needs to write an essay, I suggest what he might want to write and help him with some of the edits. My sister thinks what I do goes far beyond help, and that I’m enabling him to cheat. She feels that while it may help his grades now, I am doing him no favors in the long run. We had a big argument over this. I don’t think it’s any of her business. I’d really appreciate your opinion. – Helping Or Cheating? Sacramento, California Dear Helping: Thank you for asking. I’m sure you care deeply for Rory, but sometimes – with

the best of intentions – a person can do too much. When you suggest topics for your ADVICE boyfriend’s essays, then Dear edit them so Abby the teacher ■■■won’t see where he needs to strengthen his English skills, what you’re really doing is preventing him from learning how to properly spell or construct a sentence. And when you’re no longer around to be his filter, it’s going to become apparent. The same goes for math. If you tell Rory what steps to take to solve his math problems, he won’t master the concepts or memorize the formulas. Heaven help him if he plans to take a college entrance exam! While the argument you had with your sister was regrettable, please try not to be so defensive. She was trying to tell you something important, and it couldn’t hurt to really listen. Dear Abby: I’m a 13-year-old girl in junior high. I am very shy and self-conscious. When I see skinny girls, I look at myself and feel embarrassed or ashamed. I have a lot of friends who support me. They say I shouldn’t

worry about my weight and that I don’t need to lose any more. I would like some words of encouragement from you. It seems like nothing can stop the way I feel. I have a boyfriend, but our relationship is long-distance. We talk online and he is as supportive as he can be, but I still feel selfconscious. Please help me with this. – Teen In Need in North Carolina Dear Teen: The harder we stare at our imagined flaws, the bigger they become. So please stop constantly comparing yourself to others. It’s a depressing waste of time. Very few people are completely confident and self-assured at 13, and there are more important qualities to focus on in life than whatever happens to be the ideal of physical perfection at the moment. Your time would be better spent developing qualities that not only make you special, but also will last a lifetime – your personality, your intellect and your talents. So listen to what your friends and your boyfriend are telling you. Spend a few minutes every day reminding yourself of all the things you have going for you and the special qualities you have to offer. If you do you’ll have less time to dwell on the negative.

ven though the common coneflower or Echinacea flower is native to the Eastern and central parts of the United States, today’s modern coneflower found in garden centers is far from common. A multiuse flower, Echinacea can be at home in the landscape, the vase or the medicine cabinet. Herbalists know that in Germany and much of the United States, it is respected as an immune response enhancer and a dietary supplement; flower lovers like it for its cutflower uses as well as a landscape dazzler; bird and butterfly lovers know it attracts both in large numbers to the nectar and later the seeds. Echinacea are traditionally multi-stemmed plants with bushy, upright growth and large flower stalks that lift the coneflowers well above the plant base. Coneflowers prefer full sun but will tolerate partial shade conditions. It does well in average or poor soil and Echinacea has a thick taproot that grows deep to allow for water conservation once established. A native plant to our prairies, it needs full sun and a pH of 5.8-7.3 so adding lime to the soil is

“You fancy yourself a wordsmith,” my friend the English professor said. “Can you take a common one-syllable word, add one letter and make a three-syllable word?” Before I could think about it, the prof displayed today’s deal. “My partner booted four hearts,” he growled. “He covered the jack of clubs with dummy’s queen, captured East’s king and led the king of trumps. West won and continued clubs. Declarer ruffed the third club with the ten, drew trumps, led a trump to dummy’s seven and led the queen of spades: five, three, seven.

SPADE LOSER “Dummy next led a diamond. East grabbed his ace and exited with a diamond, and my partner had to lose a spade. Down one.” Many problems in dummy play are in the area of managing entries. South handled the trumps well, but he must follow to the queen of spades with his jack. He can let the ten ride next and then lead a diamond toward the king. For one solution to the word puzzle, see the first sentence in the preceding paragraph.

How to judge exercise

D

ear Dr. Donohue: I am in my 70s and attend vigorous aerobic exercise classes three times a week. We monitor our heart rate. Mine increases only about five feats. Others get significantly higher increases. I take nadolol to control a heart-rhythm problem. Is my exercise regimen benefiting my heart? – W.S.

BLONDIE

An increase in heart rate indicates the intensity of exercise. Because you take nadolol (Corgard), a beta blocker medicine, you will never be able to raise your heartbeat to the levels required to benefit the heart. Beta-blocker drugs slow the heartbeat. Don’t despair. Your exercise gives you and your heart plenty of benefits. Aerobic exercise is the kind of exercise that gives the heart a workout and lowers blood pressure. The intensity of aerobic exercise has to reach a certain level to obtain any gains from exercise. Monitoring heart rate provides evidence that you are in the “training zone.” Subtracting your age from 220 gives a rough approximation of your maximum heart rate. Taking 60 percent to 80 percent of your maximum heart rate indicates the lower and upper bounds of your training zone. You cannot use this approach because of your medicine. You can, however – and so can all exercisers – use another method for determining exercise intensity. That is perceived exertion. You determine the intensity of an exer-

cise by how it feels to you. You can forget taking your pulse. The scale of perceived HEALTH exertion runs from Dr. Paul six to 20. Donohue Six is so ■■■ light an exertion that it really can’t be called exercise. Twenty is so demanding that few people are able to perform at that level. Thirteen is the level of intensity that gives the heart a sufficient workout. Thirteen translates into “somewhat hard.” You judge if the exercise is somewhat hard. It’s as valid a way of determining exercise intensity as heartbeat is. What you deem as “somewhat hard” at the beginning of an exercise program may drop down to a lesser ranking as you gain stamina and conditioning. “Somewhat hard,” therefore, evolves as you evolve into a better-conditioned athlete. Dear Dr. Donohue: You stress that people should walk for exercise. I am unable to walk. What exercise can I do to help my heart? – M.M. You can do upper-body exercises while seated. You have to do them without much of a pause so the exercise qualifies as aerobic exercise. Exercise with stretch rubber bands or light dumbbells will give you a good workout and will help your heart. Do them for a minimum of 10

minutes without a break. As you become accustomed to the exercise, aim for a total of 30 minutes a day. Three 10-minute sessions are acceptable. Is swimming possible for you? It’s an excellent way to stay in shape and help the heart. People with disabilities should contact the National Center on Physical Activity and Disability for a slew of information on how to exercise. The toll-free number is 800-900-8086 and the website is ncpad.org. Dear Dr. Donohue: I lifted 5-pound weights a few weeks ago and shortly after developed a trigger thumb. My other hand developed a trigger index and middle finger. It seems odd, because I have lifted weights before with no problems. My doctor said to soak my hands in warm water 15 minutes twice a day. It’s not working. What else can I do besides surgery? – B.P. A trigger finger is one that locks in a bent position for a while until it suddenly straightens with a snapping sound. It sounds like a gun’s trigger. The usual causes are overuse, injury or arthritis. For how many days did you lift weights? Soaking in warm water several times a day usually calms the inflammation that’s causing the problem. Aleve, Advil, Motrin and similar medicines help too. If these don’t work for you, the doctor can inject the fingers with a cortisone drug. That almost always works. Save surgery for last.

WINSTON-SALEM – Glenn’s softball team will have to wait until this afternoon – and perhaps as late as Monday – to see if the Bobcats can catch lightning in a bottle. Friday night’s highly anticipated game between 26-2 Glenn and 280 North Davidson was suspended by lightning in the bottom of the second inning and never resumed as storms swept across the Triad. School officials will decide this morning at 10 if field conditions and today’s weather will permit the game to be played at 1 p.m. If not, the N.C. High School Athletic Association 4A West Regional semifinal will take place Monday night at 7. The winner advances to next weekend’s championship series against the other Western finalist and the last two teams standing in the East. Glenn grabbed a 1-0 lead Friday night, with Rachel Wilson crossing the plate just as lightning lit up the sky over the Bobcats’ home field. Wilson singled and took second on Catherine Head’s sacrifice bunt. Meagan Tilley then followed with a sharp single off North star Tess Swing. The ball was bobbled in center field, allowing Wilson to race home.

Two area teams remain alive in the N.C. High School Athletic Association playoffs. While rain wiped out Glenn’s softball game Friday, Bishop McGuinness and West Wilkes are dodging graduation schedules to get in their best-of-three Western Regional title series. West graduated last night and Bishop walks tonight, which forced a pair of games today. The winner meets the Eastern champ in a best-of-three series next weekend.

Hendrick Motorsports teammates Kyle Busch (right) and Denny Hamlin talk after Thursday’s qualifying runs for Sunday’s NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway in Concord.

Drivers enjoy spat L

ike a gawker at a train wreck or someone intrigued by celebrity spats, Jimmie Johnson admits that he loves to watch. He can’t turn away from NASCAR’s latest dust-up among teammates – even though he knows what it is like to be in the middle of one. Johnson came under the microscope when he and longtime friend Jeff Gordon went through a series of on-track incidents in April that didn’t please their car owner, Rick Hendrick. Now, he enjoys SPORTS seeing how things are going to play Greer out between Denny Smith Hamlin and Kyle ■■■ Busch following the incident in Saturday’s All-Star race in which Busch drove into the wall trying to overtake Hamlin for the lead, went ballistic to the point of saying he was going to kill Hamlin for moving out of the way, and stormed into Hamlin’s hauler for a meeting. “With the teammate situation, it’s so much fun to watch it take place, and to hear what goes on, but when you’re living it, it (stinks),” Johnson said on Thursday at Charlotte Motor Speedway. “Everybody wants to know what’s going on. But to think for a few days how you need to handle what you want to say and you don’t know how they’re going to be received or what people are going to think or what your teammate is going to say or how it’s going to be received, there is distraction that takes place. So, I’m glad it’s not me. “It’s certainly fun to watch and I know we entertained a lot of people a few races back when Jeff (Gordon) and I were going through our thing, but it’s a tough environment as teammates racing for wins and I guess it shows that it doesn’t matter what organization you drive for or who the teammates are, you’re seeing what we want week in and week out. We want to win races.” Busch was unrepentant and still believed Thursday morning that

Hamlin was in the wrong. Hamlin got a couple of verbal shots at Busch on Thursday afternoon. Both said they were willing to put the incident behind them and work together for the remainder of the season, bringing home a championship for Joe Gibbs Racing being their objective. The prevailing view in the garage area was that Hamlin did nothing wrong in the race keeping his line as the leader. Kurt Busch even thought his younger brother made an error. Now the onlookers continue watching to see how the rift will impact two drivers who have won five of the past seven races: Hamlin three and Busch two. Johnson was among those wishing the spat continues as he tries to regain his early-season form that produced three wins in the first four races. He has not won since he and Gordon went through their rough waters. “From a competitive standpoint, I hope they keep fighting,” Johnson said. “I hope they keep entertaining us, because it’s a distraction. From a friendship standpoint, obviously the sooner they get it behind them, the better. I want to see it continue on because they’re both fast drivers and have a chance at winning this weekend.” In the short run, Kurt Busch believes that the clash might be detrimental. In the long run, he said it could provide positive motivation for both. “When teammates start to feud, it doesn’t do anything good for the team internally and it usually starts with something on track,” Kurt Busch said before qualifying second for Sunday’s Coca-Cola 600. “Just like this season, we’ve had Jeff Gordon really upset with Jimmie Johnson after Talladega. On the outside, you always hope when you see top drivers feuding like that, it might soften them up where they don’t run as competitive at the track. That’s what you have to be careful of. In the long run, you know that these guys are going to work it out.” Richard Childress Racing driver

Jimmie Johnson looks out from his car during practice for Sunday’s race at Charlotte Motor Speedway. Johnson is a spectator in NASCAR’s latest driver feud after tangling earlier this year with teammate Jeff Gordon. Jeff Burton was another who thought the younger Busch and Hamlin might turn the whole escapade into a positive. “My concern was that it will just make them both want it more, and that may not be in our best interest,” Burton said. “They’re both very good racecar drivers; obviously, their equipment is very good and it might (tick) them off and put them in a position where they’re trying even harder. I’m not sure that that would be a good thing for us.” Burton added that another feud of the week will most likely change the conversation. That’s quite likely in stock-car racing’s world of tempers. Until then, Kyle Busch and Hamlin will be watched closely. gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3519

HIT AND RUN

re you ready for some frigid, frozen Super Bowl action? I hope so, because the 2014 Super Bowl will be played at the new $1.6 billion Meadowlands Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J. The average temperature in that neck of the woods around 6:30 p.m. (kickoff time) in early February? Try 34 degrees. While some folks have complained about

the potential cold, snowy Super Bowl weather, I love it. Football is a tough game. Its true fans aren’t deterred by wintry weather. I hope it snows to beat the band on Super Sunday in ‘14. Here’s hoping the AFC champion Miami Dolphins and NFC champion Tampa Bay Buccaneers slip, slide and shiver their way to a 2-0 final with a combined 25

punts and minus-50 yards of total offense. Warm-weather sites are great for surfing and beach blanket bingo. The NFL needs a Super Bowl on the frozen tundra of Meadowlands Stadium. I can’t wait. Just don’t forget the hot chocolate and parkas.

Mainstay Edwards off Nationwide pace BY GREER SMITH ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER

AP

Helio Castroneves spins his tires on his way to winning the pit stop competition at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway on Friday. Castroneves starts on the pole in Sunday’s Indy 500.

Stars aligning for Castroneves INDIANAPOLIS (AP) – Helio Castroneves has a serious case of deja vu. Last year, the Brazilian driver won the pole, the pitstop challenge and the Indianapolis 500. He’s already won the pole and the pit challenge this year. Next stop, Victory Lane? He’ll be going for a record-

tying fourth Indy 500 win on Sunday. But Friday, his focus was on his Penske crew, which beat Hideki Mutoh’s Newman/Haas Racing team in the pit stop challenge final. “Today is their day,” Castroneves said. “I just have to sit down and drive the car. But it certainly is great to

Rematch gets closer PARIS (AP) – So much has transpired in the nearly 21⁄2 years since Maria Sharapova and Justine Henin last played each other. Sharapova needed right shoulder surgery and was off the tour for 10 months, then missed time with a right elbow injury. Henin abruptly announced her retirement and stayed away for 20 months, then returned, happier off the court and, so far, almost as good on it. The two former No. 1s, owners of a combined 10 Grand Slam titles, set up an attention-worthy showdown in the French Open’s third round Saturday by wrapping up matter-of-fact victories on a sun-soaked, busy Friday. “Comes very early, of course, third round,” Henin said. “But I feel ready for it.” Relentless rain Thursday created a backlog of matches, meaning that nearly every big name

carry this momentum to the race. Because I know when I go out there, I will rely on these guys and normally, I’m sure we’re going to succeed as well.” Castroneves said the team’s attitude is the key to its success. Penske has won five consecutive pit-stop challenges and 12 overall.

STORRS, Conn. (AP) – Connecticut coach Jim Calhoun and the men’s basketball program he took from obscurity to national titles have been accused of eight major NCAA infractions, with investigators citing hundreds of improper calls and texts from UConn staff to recruits. The school released a notice from the NCAA on Friday that lays out the allegations against the Hall-of-Fame coach, his staff and the school. Besides the calls and texts, the accusations include giving recruits improper benefits and improperly distributing free tickets to high school coaches and others. Calhoun is cited for failing to promote an atmosphere of compliance. “It’s not exactly, certainly anywhere near the high point of my career, as a matter of fact it’s certainly one of the

NHL Draft drama leads to Cup shot CHICAGO (AP) – Three years ago, a pingpong ball took a fortuitous bounce for the Chicago Blackhawks, almost like a sliding puck, and they came out winners in a lottery that has revived the franchise. With just an 8 percent chance of winning the top pick in 2007, the Blackhawks were able to leapfrog the team with the worst record, the Philadelphia Flyers, to make Patrick Kane their No. 1 choice. Kane went to Chicago and became the rookie of the year, while the Flyers took James van Riemsdyk with the second pick. Now both players are in the Stanley Cup finals, facing each other with Game 1 set for tonight at the United Center. “It seems like it’s almost worked out good for both teams,” Kane said. “They’re here three years later. I’m here three years later, our team is, and that’s the most important thing for this franchise.” The Blackhawks are searching for their first title since the days of Bobby Hull and Stan Mikita in 1961. The Flyers are looking for their first championship since the Broad

CONCORD – If you go down the list of Nationwide winners this season, some of the usual suspects stand out. Going into today’s 300-mile race at Charlotte Motor Speedway, the 12th event of the season, defending Nationwide champ Kyle Busch has won four times. Kevin Harvick, a two-time Nationwide champ, has won twice. Brad Keselowski also has two wins. Surprisingly, the list does not include 2007 Nationwide champ Carl Edwards, who has 25 victories in NASCAR’s No. 2 series over the past five years and has finished no lower than second in the standings over the past four years. For the most part, he’s been slightly off the pace this year since finishing second in the season opener at Daytona. He’s led just 62 laps and has just five top-five finishes. Thanks to a 30th at Texas and 35th at Talladega, he is fourth in the standings – 220 behind leader Keselowski. The good news for Edwards in the points battle is that he is second among drivers who are going to run all the races. The bad news

HURRICANES SIGN PAIR

---

The Carolina Hurricanes signed forward Jiri Tlusty and defenseman Jay Harrison to oneyear contracts Friday. Each player will make $500,000 this season. The Hurricanes acquired the 22-year-old Tlusty from Toronto in December in exchange for the rights to prospect Philippe Paradis. He had one goal and five assists in 18 games with Carolina, and skated in 39 games in the AHL last season. The 27-year-old Harrison had one goal, five assists and 50 penalty minutes in 38 games with Carolina.

Street Bullies socked their way to the second of backto-back Stanley Cup titles in 1975 – long before Kane or van Riemsdyk, both 21, were born. The two played together in the world juniors and remain close. They went to dinner when the Blackhawks were in Philadelphia for their only meeting this season. Now comes a shot at the Cup.

“You never know what could have happened. I think going into that draft, the Blackhawks were like fifth to last place or whatever you want to call it at that time,” Kane said. “So it was kind of a shocker they got the first overall pick. ... To be honest with you, I was kind of excited when Chicago got it.” Kane headed right to the NHL after he was selected No. 1 and quickly emerged as a star, a consistent scoring threat with his speed and puck handling skills. Van Riemsdyk took a different route, heading off to college first and then signing with the Flyers a little more than a year ago. “We were both put in different situations and we were in different stages of our hockey development and, you know, I did what I thought was best for me to be a better player,” van Riemsdyk said. “He was obviously ready to make that jump right after the draft. He’s done a good job for himself.” And for his team. The Blackhawks were playing before a half-empty arena before Kane and 22-year-old captain Jonathan Toews arrived and became the centerpieces.

lowest points at any time that you are accused of doing something,” said Calhoun, who has led the Huskies since 1986 and taken them to the Final Four three times. “It’s a very serious matter.” The allegations come at the end of a 15-month investigation into the recruiting of former player Nate Miles, who was expelled from UConn in October 2008 without ever playing a game for the Huskies. He was charged with violating a restraining order in a case involving a woman who claimed he assaulted her. The NCAA alleges 160 impermissible telephone calls and at least 191 impermissible text messages between recruits and coaches, including assistants Beau Archibald, Patrick Sellers, Andre LeFler, associate head coach George Blaney, and then-assistant Tom Moore.

is Keselowski is another of those drivers. Edwards and Keselowski are two of three Cup drivers intending to compete in every race in both Cup and Nationwide. Paul Menard is the other. Because both series are here this weekend, the competition is a little more stiff, with 12 drivers who qualified for Sunday’s Coca-Cola 600 seeking a spot in the 300. Those drivers are headed by Busch, who is seeking his fourth victory in the five Nationwide races at CMS. “Somebody was telling me that this was the first time we have been out of the top two in a couple of years,” Edwards said. “I don’t think it matters if there are Cup drivers there or not, the competition is really stiff. There are guys out there that are running really well. We just have to keep our head down and keep going forward.” Qualifying to determine the 43car starting field is at 9 a.m., with the race at 2:45 p.m. In final practice Thursday, rookie driver Trevor Bayne zipped to the fastest lap of 177.713 mph. Ryan Newman, Keselowski, Brian Scott and Kasey Kahne completed the top five. Busch was eighth, with Edwards just 19th. gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3519

ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

FORT WORTH, Texas – Bryce Molder shot a career-best 8-under 62 and leads after two rounds at the Colonial. Molder’s round Friday got him to 13 under. That’s good for a one-stroke lead over first-round co-leader Jason Bohn and two strokes better than Kris Blanks and Brian Davis. Molder had a chance to match the course record of 61, but missed an 8-foot birdie putt at the 18th hole.

Friday’s American Legion Baseball Area III North game was stopped in the sixth inning due to lightning. Kevin Sanders went 2-for-2 with a two-run homer and three RBIs, while Victor Zecca was 2-for-3 with an RBI. Whited scored four runs. David Coffey struck out nine in six innings for the mound win.

ROCK HILL, S.C. – Down 6-1 early, No. 1 seed Coastal Carolina hit four home runs to defeat No. 4 High Point 15-9 in Friday night’s semifinal of the Big South Baseball Championship at The Winthrop Ballpark. The Chanticleers improved to 50-7 and advanced to the championship game. High Point fell to 31-28 and was scheduled to play No. 2 Liberty later Friday in an elimination contest. Rain wiped out that game, however, moving it to 11 a.m. today. The winner then will have to beat Coastal twice to steal the league crown and advance to the NCAA Regionals. “Our guys played very hard today, but for every pitcher we had, they had an offensive answer,� Panthers coach Craig Cozart said of the Chants. “It shows how strong they are as a team, because they beat you in so many ways. Our guys are ready: We will get the win and see Coastal again.� After lightning and rain delayed the start of Friday’s game 1 hour, 43 min-

utes, High Point sent eight batters to the plate in the first inning and jumped to a 3-0 lead. Matt Gantner had an RBI single off Coastal starter Josh Conway and Kyle Mahoney added a two-run single. In the second inning, Mike Mercurio belted a two-out solo home run to make it 4-0 on his first career homer, and it was 6-1 entering the bottom of the fourth. There, Daniel Bowman connected for a grand slam off Al Yevoli, and in the fifth, Scott Woodward and Jose Iglesias hit back-to-back solo homers to tie the game at 7-7. Coastal took its first lead of the game in the sixth when new High Point pitcher Spencer Andrews balked in Bowman, and the lead grew to 10-7 before the Chants padded their cushion with five in the eighth. “I told the kids in the huddle that this is one of the biggest wins of the season,� Coastal coach Gary Gilmore said. “Honestly, they had the momentum and were effective on the mound. Bowman’s swing got us going. It was a collection of other good at-bats by a lot of guys.�

Reynolds to close Triad plant, one other RICHMOND, Va. (AP) – Tobacco company Reynolds American Inc. said Friday it will close two cigarette plants – one in its headquarters city in Winston-Salem, N.C., and another in Puerto Rico – as it adjusts to declining demand for cigarettes. The nation’s second-largest cigarette maker said production of cigarettes like Camel and Pall Mall will start to shift to its largest facility in nearby Tobaccoville, N.C., this summer. Workers at the WinstonSalem plant will transition to the other facility. In December, Reynolds

Shell buys US oil, gas company for $4.7 billion AMSTERDAM – Royal Dutch Shell PLC said Friday it will buy East Resources Inc., a major owner of shale gas holdings in the northeast United States, for $4.7 billion from private investors.

offered buyouts to about 1,800 workers at the North Carolina manufacturing plants to cut costs. About 400 workers opted to take the offer. Most of the reductions were scheduled to take place in 2010 and begin as early as January, and others will have release dates in early 2011. Reynolds said about 60 jobs in Puerto Rico will be eliminated in the consolidation, but distribution operations in Puerto Rico are not affected by the plant closure, the company said. Reynolds American also said Friday that it will ex-

pand its smokeless tobacco processing and manufacturing capacity at facilities in Memphis and Clarksville, Tenn. The maker of Kodiak and Grizzly smokeless tobacco said the two plants will be fully operational by early 2012. Its current plant in Memphis, built in 1904, will close the same year. Workers will be moved to the new facilities. “These changes make our companies more efficient in light of the declining U.S. cigarette industry and growth in smokeless tobacco,” CEO Susan Ivey said in a news release.

Consumer spending stalled in April WASHINGTON (AP) – Consumers don’t appear confident enough in the economy to open their wallets more freely. Their spending stalled in April. Without stronger job creation and higher pay, people are less likely to up their spending in the months ahead and invigorate the recovery. The flat level for consumer spending was the weakest showing in seven months, according to the Commerce Department report. Personal incomes rose 0.4 percent, in line with expectations but not fast enough to help generate real growth. Falling gas prices and cheaper utility bills could make people feel better about spending more over the summer. So could historically low mortgage

rates. That would lead more people to refinance and leave them with more disposable income. But Nigel Gault, an economist at IHS Global Insight, said employment will be key to supporting income growth in coming months. “The consumer needs sustainable income support, so employment reports including next Friday’s will be key signals of just how robust consumption will be over the rest of 2010,” Gault said. Economists are looking for 503,000 jobs to be added in May. That would be better than April’s 290,000 increase, the biggest one-month rise in four years. The May surge is expected to include a sizable number of temporary census workers hired by the government.

Toys R Us to go public again NEW YORK (AP) – Toys R Us Inc. said Friday that it plans to go public again by raising as much as $800 million in an initial public offering, a bid to take advantage of its business turnaround even in a rocky IPO market. The offering would be one of the biggest retail IPOs in years. But experts say IPOs so far this year have been disappointing, so pricing will be key. Despite the recession dampening sales over the past year, Toys R Us has steadily improved net income under CEO Jerry Storch, the former Target Corp. vice chairman who joined the company in 2006. The year before, the company had been taken

private in a $6.6 billion buyout by investors led by Bain Capital, Kohlberg Kravis Roberts and Vornado Realty Trust. Under Storch, the company has improved its merchandise selection and customer service and become more competitive on price, toy analyst Jim Silver said. “He put the moms back in stores,” he said. “The whole store experience is a much better experience.” BMO Capital Markets analyst Gerrick Johnson said the timing for the IPO makes sense because the toy industry is doing well, Toys R Us has been taking market share from key competitors Target and Wal-Mart Stores Inc.

Debt woes put markets on edge NEW YORK (AP) – Stocks closed out their worst month in more than a year by sliding again on more unsettling news about Europe. The Dow Jones industrials dropped 122 points Friday after Fitch Ratings gave Spain the second downgrade of its credit rating in a month. The rating agency’s action was another reminder to traders of the long-term economic problems still facing several European countries, and perhaps the rest of the continent and the global economy as well. May was difficult as persistent and intensifying worries about Europe’s debt problems sent the Dow down 7.9 percent and the broader Standard & Poor’s 500 index down 8.2 percent. Both indexes had their worst monthly performance since February 2009, the month before stocks began their recovery from 12-year lows. The Dow had its biggest May drop since 1962. The last trading day of May fit the pattern of the rest of the month. Stocks alternately plunged and recovered, then dropped late in the day as investors facing a three-day holiday weekend decided to play it safe and sell. “People are worried about Europe and we’re seeing a knee-jerk reaction, particularly ahead of a long weekend,” said Joe Heider, a principal at Rehmann in Cleveland. He said traders won’t want to be holding some investments since U.S. markets are closed Monday while European ones are open.

Man accused in $70 million international Ponzi scheme EAST ST. LOUIS, Ill. (AP) – The U.S. government has accused a former Canadian resident possibly living in the Philippines of bilking some 40,000 investors spanning six continents of $70 million in an Internet-based Ponzi scheme. A 10-count federal complaint filed Friday charges Nicholas Smirnow, 53, with conspiracy and fraud counts in the alleged scheme the federal investigators say covered two years until 2009 and included victims in every U.S. state except Maine and Vermont. The office of the U.S.

attorney for southern Illinois said in a statement that Smirnow, formerly of Baysville, Ontario, has been living in the Philippines. It did not indicate Smirnow’s nationality, if he was still believed to be in the Philippines or if he was in custody. A. Courtney Cox, the U.S. attorney for southern Illinois, declined to provide more details, simply describing the case as “massive.” “This is a case of national importance, there’s no question about that,” Cox told The Associated Press. Messages left with In-

terpol, the Paris-based international police intelligence-sharing association, seeking information about Smirnow’s whereabouts were not immediately returned. Authorities say Smirnow’s “Pathway-2Prosperity” lured investors with what the complaint termed the hallmark of a high-yield investment scheme – claims of low- or no-risk investment plans, in this case supposedly yielding annual returns of anywhere from 546 to 17,000 percent. Investors were offered their choice of seven-, 15-, 30- and 60day plans.

Regulators close three Florida banks WASHINGTON (AP) – Regulators on Friday shut down three affiliated banks in Florida, bringing the number of U.S. bank failures this year to 76. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. took over the banks, all owned by holding company Bank of Florida Corp. They are: Bank of FloridaSoutheast, based in Fort Lauderdale, with $595.3 million in assets; Bank of Florida-Southwest, based in Naples, with $640.9 million in assets; and Bank of Florida-Tampa Bay, based in Tampa, with $245.2 million in assets.

deposits of the failed banks. In addition, the FDIC and EverBank agreed to share losses on the three banks’ loans and other assets. Losses will be shared on $437.3 million of Bank of Florida-Southeast’s assets, on $568.1 million of Bank of Florida-Southwest’s assets and on $210.8 million of Bank of FloridaTampa Bay’s assets. The failures of the three banks are expected to cost the deposit insurance fund a total of about $203 million. With 76 closures so far this year, the pace of bank failures is more than double that of 2009, which was already a brisk year

for shutdowns. By this time last year, regulators had closed 36 banks. The pace has accelerated as banks’ losses mount on loans made for commercial property and development. The number of bank failures is expected to peak this year and to be slightly higher than the 140 that fell in 2009. That was the highest annual tally since 1992, at the height of the savings and loan crisis. The 2009 failures cost the insurance fund more than $30 billion. Twenty-five banks failed in 2008, the year the financial crisis struck with force, and only three succumbed in 2007.

Actor Gary Coleman dies PROVO, Utah (AP) – Gary Coleman, the adorable, pint-sized child star of the smash 1970s TV sitcom “Diff’rent Strokes” who spent the rest of his life struggling on Hollywood’s D-list, died Friday after suffering a brain hemorrhage. He was 42. Life support was terminated and Coleman died at 12:05 p.m. MDT with family and friends at his side, Utah Valley Regional Medical Center spokeswoman Janet Frank said. Coleman, with his sparkling eyes and perfect comic timing, quickly became a star after “Diff’rent Strokes” debuted in 1978. He played Arnold Jackson, the younger one of a pair of African-American brothers adopted by a wealthy white man. His skeptical “Whatchu talkin’ ’bout?” – usually aimed at older brother Willis – became a catchphrase. “It’s unfortunate. It’s a sad day,” said Todd Bridges, who played Willis. “It’s sad that I’m the last kid alive from the show.” The series lives on thanks to DVDs and YouTube. But its equally enduring legacy became the troubles in adulthood of its former child stars.

In this Feb. 26, 2008, file photo, actor Gary Coleman, best known from the television series “Diff’rent Strokes” and his wife Shannon Price, appear on the the NBC “Today” television program in New York. In 1989, Bridges was acquitted of attempted murder in the shooting of a drug dealer. The then 24-year-old Bridges testified he became depressed and turned to drugs after “Diff’rent

Strokes” was canceled. Dana Plato, who played the boys’ white, teenage sister, pleaded guilty in 1991 to a robbery charge. She died in 1999 of an overdose of painkiller and muscle relaxer.

Obama extends roadless moratorium GRANTS PASS, Ore. (AP) – The Obama administration Friday extended for another year the moratorium on most logging and mining in millions of acres of remote and rugged backcountry sections of national forests. Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack said from Washington, D.C., he

wants to continue to give decisions on projects in roadless areas a higher level of scrutiny while waiting for federal courts to resolve the legal issues. The idea of preserving roadless areas for wildlife habitat and clean water came out of the Clinton administration.

The Bush administration tried to open them up to more logging and mining by giving states control. Conservation groups and the timber industry both welcomed the moratorium due to the continued questions over the legal standing of the policy.

House moves to end ban on gays in military WASHINGTON (AP) – The House on Friday passed a defense bill that paves the way for gays to serve openly in the military for the first time, but advocates on both sides geared up for a fight in the Senate.

In 2008 photo, former Navy Vice Admiral and Democratic Congressman Joe Sestak introduces former President Bill Clinton.

White House: Nothing wrong with Sestak job offer WASHINGTON (AP) – Forced to disclose backstage political bargaining, President Barack Obama’s embarrassed White House said Friday it had enlisted Bill Clinton to try to ease Rep. Joe Sestak out of Pennsylvania’s Senate primary with a job offer. Nothing wrong with that, the White House

‘I wasn’t interested, and that was the bottom line.’ Joe Sestak Pa. Congressman said. Oh, yes, there was, Republicans countered. The administration admission – it said Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel had asked the former president to call Sestak – left many questions unanswered, and it seemed unlikely the issue had been put to rest. For Obama, the revelations called into question his repeated promises to run an open government that was above back room deals. And for Sestak, they raised questions why he kept talking about the offer – a 60-second conversation, he said Friday – in the first place. “I wasn’t interested, and that was the bottom line,” Sestak said on the steps of the Capitol.

President Barack Obama (left) picks up a “tar ball” as LaFourche Parish president Charlotte Randolph (center) and U.S. Coast Guard Admiral Thad Allen, National Incident Commander for the BP Deepwater Horizon oil spill, look on during a tour of areas impacted by the Gulf Coast oil spill, Friday, in Port Fourchon, La.

Tar balls and promises: Obama visits Gulf Coast GRAND ISLE, La. (AP) – Kneeling to pick up tar balls on an oil-fouled beach and listening to “heartbreaking stories” of loss, President Barack Obama personally confronted the spreading damage wrought by the crude gushing into the Gulf of Mexico – and the bitter anger that’s rising onshore. “What can he really do?” said Billy Ward, a developer who comes to his beach house here every weekend and, like many other locals, had little positive to say about Obama’s trip to the beleaguered region on Friday. “If he wants to do something, let him get out there and pump some mud and cement into that hole. Just fix it. Help us.” BP PLC, even less popular here, kept up its efforts to “just fix it,” using its “top kill” procedure to try to stop the deep oil well leak by pumping in heavy mud. If it doesn’t work, something BP says

will be known within a couple of town threatened by what is now days, Obama’s own problems will established as the largest oil spill in American history. “People are only compound. watching their livelihoods wash up on the beach.” A BP drilling rig in the Gulf of Mexico exploded on April 20, killing 11 workers and beginning to send millions of gallons of oil spewing into the water. That oil is now beginning to foul beaches, kill wildlife and cripple the tourism and fishing industries on which this area depends. With the crude still flowing freely, Billy Ward criticism has been increasingly aimed at Obama and his adminGulf Coast developer istration. Amid concern that the environHe said he understands people “want it made right” and that mental and economic disaster their frustration won’t fade until could also engulf his presidency, the oil is stopped and cleaned up. Obama has stepped up his public “It’s an assault on our shores, appearances this week to demon our people, on the regional onstrate that he is engaged. He economy and on communities held a rare White House news like this one,” the president said conference on Thursday, focusfrom this small barrier island ing almost entirely on the spill.

‘If he wants to do something, let him get out there and pump some mud and cement into that hole. Just fix it. Help us.’

BP says attempt to plug well going as planned ROBERT, La. (AP) – BP’s chief operating officer says the attempt to plug the gushing Gulf oil well is going basically according to plan. Doug Suttles says the company has shot assorted junk into the well along with heavy drilling mud to try to over-

come the pressure of the oil. He says the job remains underway even though there have been stops and starts to the actual pumping of heavy mud into the well. He says it’s important not to read too much into the pauses. The oil has been flowing since

the drilling rig Deepwater Horizon exploded April 20. The spill is now the worst in U.S. history. Suttles also says the drilling of a second relief well has been suspended to prepare for a different way to try to cut off the oil if the top kill doesn’t work.

Mother, stepfather charged in boy’s death in Utah FARMINGTON, Utah (AP) – Aggravated murder charges were filed Friday against the mother and stepfather of a 4year old boy who police said was beaten to death then disfigured and buried in the mountains. Stephanie Sloop, 27, and Nathanael Sloop, 31, did not enter pleas during their initial court appearance. They were being held without bail in the death of Ethan Stacy. Davis County Attorney Troy Rawlings said a decision had not yet been made about whether to seek the death penalty, although the case was heading in that direction. Prosecutors have 60 days to make the determination.

Attorneys for the Sloops declined to comment because new lawyers qualified to represent death penalty defendants were expected to be appointed at a June 4 hearing. Searchers dug up Stacy’s disfigured body May 11 – 10 days after he arrived in Utah from Virginia for a summer visit with his mother. The county attorney’s office said the Sloops also were charged with child abuse, obstruction of justice and abuse or desecration of AP a body. All are felonies.

House approval of the “don’t ask, don’t tell” repeal was a victory for President Barack Obama, who has pledged to change the policy, and for gay rights groups, who have made it their top priority this year. The bill would give the Pentagon the rest of the year to study the issue before the repeal would take effect. Defense Secretary Robert Gates appealed to the military Friday not to be distracted by the political debate over gays in uniform. In an unusual direct address to troops, Gates said he wanted to assure them that their views on the divisive question still matter.

Stevens denies Blagojevich request for delay WASHINGTON (AP) – The Supreme Court on Friday refused to delay ousted Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich’s trial on corruption charges, set to begin next week. Justice John Paul S t e v e n s rejected Blagojevich’s request Blagojevich w i t h o u t comment. His decision came shortly after the Obama administration told the high court that it opposed Blagojevich’s request. The former governor’s trial is scheduled to begin on Thursday. In Chicago, Blagojevich attorney Sheldon Sorosky said after hearing about the decision that the former governor’s legal team was ready for the trial to get under way. “We didn’t prepare presuming that the Supreme Court would rule in our favor – we prepared for the worst,” Sheldon Sorosky said. “The Supreme Court has ruled and that’s that.”

Mercedes C63 AMG has power, control BY ANN M. JOB THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NUTS & BOLTS

–

The compact C-Class cars are the most popular Mercedes-Benzes in this country. But only a few get the AMG treatment, where a handcrafted V-8 – complete with the name of the engine builder on it – is stuffed under the hood and big brakes and tires go into the wheel wells. A tradition that started in Mercedes’ larger cars carried into the C-Class in the 2008 model year, and the 2010 C63 AMG doesn’t divert from the famous formula. AMG is the sports/racing brand of Mercedes, and its vehicles hold special status around the world because of the attention to performance and exclusivity. Basically, if you have a Mercedes AMG vehicle in your garage, you’re part of a small club. But membership is expensive, even when the AMG model is Mercedes’ smallest car. Starting manufacturer’s suggested retail price, including destination charge and gas guzzler tax, is $60,325 for a base, 2010 C63 AMG with automatic transmission. This is $25,850 above the starting retail price for a

But it’s in line with competitors, including the 414horsepower, 2010 BMW M3 sedan, which has a starting MSRP, including destination charge, of $57,575 with manual transmission and V-8. Also, the 2010 Lexus IS F, with 416-horspower V-8

and automatic transmission, starts at $59,335. The Lexus doesn’t incur a gas guzzler tax, but the BMW M3 does. It’s $1,300 compared with the $2,100 tax that’s on the C63 AMG. The reason for the guzzler tax? Fuel economy ratings in the C63 AMG are so poor – just 12 miles per gallon in the city and 19 mpg on the highway. This puts the C63 AMG

10th worst in government fuel mileage ratings in the compact car segment in the United States. The ratings are akin to what some big, luxury sport utility vehicles get. For example, the federal government fuel mileage ratings for a 2010 Land Rover Range Rover are 12/18 mpg. The government figures aren’t artificially low. In aggressive city driving,

the test C63 AMG got just 13 mpg. Once highway travel added in, I managed to move the average fuel economy up to only 17.3 mpg. And the car requires pricey premium gasoline. But oh, the power from the handcrafted 6.3-liter V-8 is intoxicating. Passengers hear a low, sinister rumble from the V-8 nearly all the time and

through today, starting at 2:30 p.m. and ending at 9:30 p.m. Rick Lee, who is sponsored by Winston-Salem-based Mock Orange Bikes (MOB), is one of the cyclists who took to the streets Friday. He said he competes in about 30 to 50 criteriums a year and was drawn to the sport because of its individual nature. “With cycling, I don’t have to rely on others to show up,” Lee said. “I train by myself.” Angela Craven, who was a course marshal for the event as well as a team member of MOB, had a

hand in developing the event. She attributes the idea of bringing the races to the furniture capital to Chip Duckett, owner of Mock Orange Bikes and a High Point native. “It was Duckett’s dream to help High Point out and to see the city come to life beside the week of market,” Craven said. Jim Martin, who is responsible for organizing the Piedmont Triad Omnium in Lexington, teamed up with Duckett to help organize the event. The two work together through the Piedmont Charities Sports Promotion,

which Martin founded. “With this event, we wanted to bring attention to the charities within High Point,” Martin said. “The events are put on mainly to support the Multiple Sclerosis society and then pull charities from the city that the event is held in.” Martin attributed a large part of the event’s success to the city of High Point and the sponsors of the event. “Without them, the race wouldn’t have gone off as well,” Martin added. editor@hpe.com | 888-3537

HIGH POINT – City officials should unveil details Thursday about an employer seeking economic incentives to set up an operation in north High Point. The High Point City Council is scheduled to hold a public hearing on the project at 5:30 p.m. June 7 at City Hall. Details on the project will be released Thursday as part of the packet of information for the upcoming council meeting, said Loren Hill, president of the High Point Economic Development Corp. The city could contribute up to $35,000 in incentives, according to information on file so far about

Oak Hill teacher selected rookie of the year ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

HIGH POINT – Stacy Brady believed her students could do anything. And they proved it. Brady’s Oak Hill Elementary students improved more than 20 percentage points in reading or scored 10 points higher than other third-grade classrooms on a recent benchmark assessment. “Students come in with all kinds of labels, behavior and low socioeconomic backgrounds – but that is not who they are,” Brady said. “Students are more than their labels and can do anything if you believe they can.” For her ability to motivate students and serve as an example for other

demic progress with data notebooks, Brady was an example for the program. She holds her students to very high standards and encourages them to keep each other accountable for their progress and their actions. “Set high standards for your students, including academic goals and social expectations,” Brady said. “Most importantly, model the achievements you want to see in your students by achieving your own goals. Be the person you want 16 others to be.” Brady said she quickly realized in her first year of teaching that she needed to build a foundation of trust for her students to succeed. She formed a

the deer last Saturday using a box cutter that the crew is allowed to use. Investigators acting on a tip Tuesday found about 15 pounds of venison in garbage bags in the farm’s break room. Hall says she didn’t know what the inmate intended to do with the meat. The break room

demic problem in North Carolina,” said Alexandra Forter Sirota, a policy analyst with the N.C. Justice Center’s Budget & Tax Center in Raleigh. The median length of unemployment was 16.5 weeks in 2009, up from seven weeks at the beginning of the recession in late 2007, Sirota said. Another reflection of the impact of the recession is the regional jobless rate, said Robert Ware, ESC regional manager out of Greensboro. The jobless rate for the Piedmont Triad was 5.3 percent in March 2008 as the impact of the recession began to take hold. In March of this year, the regional jobless rate reached 11.4 percent, Ware said.

Also, the city unemployment rate is below the level of 11 percent in April last year. Davidson County, which has one of the highest jobless levels in the Piedmont, had its unemployment rate fall from 13.1 percent in March to 12.1 percent last month. Randolph County’s rate fell from 11.8 percent to 10.5 percent, while Guilford County’s rate dropped from 11.1 percent to 10.4 percent, according to ESC figures. Even with the decline last month, jobless rates locally and statewide are at levels far above traditional averages. “Long-term unemployment is still an epi-

Cunningham wants to put Tarheels back to work It’s not often that we get a second chance to do something positive for ourselves, the people of North Carolina and our nation, but that opportunity is coming June 22 (early voting June 3-19) in a runoff election to see who will face Richard Burr for a seat in the U.S. Senate. And rarely does a candidate come forward for elective office with a combination of character, integrity and vision coupled with a clear plan to solve the problems before the people. Cal Cunningham is such a person. He knows people are working hard – at maybe two or three jobs – but still can’t pay the bills. He knows that taxes are too high and create a roadblock for families who struggle to make ends meet. He knows the importance of faith and lives by its teachings. He cares deeply for others and reaches out to those in need with specific strategies for creating new jobs within our state. Putting people back to work is a top priority. He believes elective office is a public trust and views himself a servant of the people.

and he himself, turned their backs on the U.S. and sided with Mexico. Almost all the Democrats stood and clapped for the president of Mexico when he berated the U.S. for law and order in Arizona and the same laws that have always been enacted in U.S. These people are stupid or evil and hate the U.S. and kiss up to nations that are out to destroy us.

We should not put lethal injection’s needle to people suffering from severe mental disabilities. So we applaud Durham Reps. Paul Luebke and Larry Hall and Orange’s Verla Insko and Bill Faison for sponsoring House Bill 137, an act that would take the death penalty off the table for people with severe mental illnesses or disabilities. Our local delegates are also leading in the Senate: Orange County’s Sen. Ellie Kinnaird, supported by our Sens. Bob Atwater and Floyd McKissick Jr., is sponsoring Senate Bill 309, which mirrors the House legislation. Now they have to get it passed in the short session. The legislation picked up some support recently after David Kaczynski came to North Carolina. Between 1978 and 1995, David Kaczynski’s brother, Ted, mailed 16 bombs, killing three people and injuring 22. After The New York Times published portions of Ted Kaczynski’s manifesto, David Kaczynski recognized his brother’s writing style and alerted investigators. A court-appointed psychologist said Ted Kaczynski, a university mathematician, suffers from paranoid schizophrenia, a diagnosis that Ted Kaczynski rejected. Although thenU.S. Attorney General Janet Reno pressed for the death penalty in his case, the Justice Department eventually offered a life sentence in exchange for guilty pleas. Deeply troubled by the idea that he might have condemned his brother to death, David Kaczynski began to publicly oppose the death penalty, and eventually became executive director of New Yorkers For Alternatives to the Death Penalty. The Kaczynski family’s story is powerful in part because it is so well-known. But the same story plays out on smaller stages in North Carolina – and the scale of the story shouldn’t affect our judgment. Surely we can pass a law that serves justice, removes murderers from society, but still allows that they were not acting with their full faculties. We should not put the needle to anyone – our justice system is imperfect and lethal injection is an irretrievable act. But until we can afford the mental health courts that would identify and divert potentially dangerous offenders into well-funded treatment programs, passing H.B. 137 and S.B. 309 is the least we can do.

Abandoned hospital to be put back into service Non-profit affiliated with Roman Catholic Church takes over facility closed by Hurricane Katrina Lindy Boggs Medical Center flooded badly during Hurricane Katrina and never reopened.

NEW ORLEANS (AP) – A nonprofit affiliated with the Roman Catholic Church has purchased a hospital that was abandoned after Hurricane Katrina and plans to put it back into service. St. Margaret’s Daughters will open the former Lindy Boggs Medical Center late next year or early 2012 with a 116-bed nursing and a small surgical hospital, home. Later, the agency wants to said St. Margaret’s chief execuadd medical offices, clinic spaces tive Larry Stansberry.

The plan is based on the model of St. Luke’s Medical Center, a smaller facility that St. Margaret’s opened earlier this year in New Orleans. That center currently has about 40 nursing home clients, along with a sleep clinic, a cardiac clinic and a geriatric psychiatric facility, and plans to soon open a pharmacy. Lindy Boggs Medical Center flooded badly during Hurricane

Katrina and never reopened. Its owner, Tenet Healthcare Corp., sold it to a Georgia company intending a major retail development, but the project never materialized. St. Margaret’s, an independent Catholic health care provider operating in New Orleans since 1931, purchased the site for $4.2 million, according to real estate records.

The American Heritage dictionary Ecclesiastes 3: 1-2 deďŹ nes the word “fairâ€? as “having or exhibiting a disposition that is free of favoritism or bias; impartial.â€? Fairness is an important character trait anywhere justice is expected, and indeed, the Bible is full of lessons and instructions which aim at inculcating fairness. Consider the Golden Rule: “And as you wish that men would These things I have spoken unto do to you, do so to them.â€? (Luke 6.31) you, that in me ye might have Treating others the way that you want peace. In the world ye shall have to be treated is one way to exhibit tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world. fairness. Consider also the many John 16:33 lessons where Jesus challenged his disciples to give up their culturally conditioned prejudices. Jews living in Palestine at the time of Jesus thought very poorly of Samaritans, who were considered “half-breedsâ€? (i.e., Jews who had married with the non-Jewish natives of Samaria), and so when Jesus tells the parable of the good Samaritan he is trying to tell his disciples that even these people who were habitually thought of as contemptible might behave better than the so-called paragons of virtue within their own culture. On another occasion, Jesus’ willingness to speak to the Samaritan woman at the well is a further lesson in giving up one’s cultural bias in favor of fairness or impartiality, since not only is she a Samaritan, but even worse, she was a woman at a time when women were thought unworthy of a man’s conversation. So, we should take a lesson from Jesus and treat everyone with fairness and impartiality.

Our honored dead must never be forgotten

THE BAR IS OPEN

I have staked my hope of heaven through faith in Jesus Christ in His own words spoken to Martha, the sister of Mary and Lazarus, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live� (John 11.25). I do not know of any words ever spoken that offer that kind of eternal hope and salvation. Jesus backed up all He taught and demonstrated its validity by His own resurrection and life. I concur with Martha’s words as she answered the question of Jesus,

to become the privilege of all Americans as a special day for honoring and remembering those who have died. Once more, this Memorial Day, I look forward to remembering my family and friends who are deceased. It will be a time to remember and reflect upon the lives of those who made life a more blessed experience for us who live and remain. Memory is that superb recollection ability that Francis Fauvel-Gourand identified as “What God gives us so that we might have roses in December.�

hen the people of America were giving birth to a new nation, under God, it suffered all that could ever be experienced in the birthing process. It was never easy or without pain, suffering, sacrifice and death. On the last Monday and day of this month, thousands will visit the places where our dead are buried. There will be gatherings at military cemeteries across the nation as well as in Arlington Cemetery in our nation’s capital. In cemeteries, there will be music, speeches, parades, flags, the sound of guns, playing of taps, prayer and the recounting of the meaning of this special day. Christians, the believers in Jesus Christ, have hope of the Day of Resurrection when all the dead in Christ will rise with their new spiritual and eternal bodies. One example of the stark contrast between life as we have known it and what it will be like following the resurrection is summed up in the words of a great servant of mankind who was physically blind. Here are the defining words of Helen Keller (read her story if you are not acquainted with it) who said, “Death . . . is no more than passing from one room into another. But there’s a difference for me, you know. Because in that other room I shall be able to see.�

Flying colors City begins unfurling Avenue of Flags BY PAT KIMBROUGH ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – Old Glory found a new home in High Point Friday as the first phase of the Avenue of Flags project went on display. City crews began placeing 50 flags on power poles along Main Street in downtown High Point, just in time for the Memorial Day weekend. The flags were placed along

down and maintain them. “I think the community is embracing it, and I’m excited for the action,” Alexander said. “I think seeing the flags up will stimulate more people to purchase flags, and I think it makes a great statement about our community.” Alexander said 50 flags have been purchased so far, and the project has room to display 77 between Russell and Montlieu avenues. A second phase could accommodate flags along major cross streets off Main Street. The city plans to leave the flags up through the Fourth of July, then take them down and have them back up for Veteran’s Day, according to Assistant City Manager Randy McCaslin.

Individuals, civic clubs and some businesses have so far purchased flags. A possible future phase of the project would entail some sort of display to list the names of those honored on the Avenue of Flags. “A lot of people have been contacting us, saying they want to honor their father, grandfather, brother or someone else in the community,” Alexander said. “There are still plenty of opportunities for people to honor someone.” For more information about the Avenue of Flags project or to obtain an order form, contact Latimer Alexander at latimeralexanderiv@gmail.com.

ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

HIGH POINT – High Point Regional Health System recently was recognized for excellence in advertising and for its antismoking efforts. The hospital received two bronze awards for the 2010 Aster Awards competition. “Receiving two Aster Awards for our Total Care campaign is an honor,” said Aaron Wall, public relations and marketing manager of High Point Regional. The awards gave credit to High Point Regional’s Total Care campaign in the TV and magazine advertising categories. The Aster Awards is one of the largest national competitions to recognize health-care professionals for excellence in their marketing or advertising efforts. For 2010, the awards received about 3,000 entries from the U.S., Canada and South America. High Point Regional Health System went up against organizations similar in size to their own organization and were judged on such aspects as creativity, production quality, layout and design, functionality, message effectiveness, and overall design. Wall added that “this campaign strategically and creatively illustrates how we get to know our patients first as people.” The hospital also was recognized by N.C. Prevention Partners for providing the highest standard of excellence for tobacco cessation programs offered to its employees. “Since we became a tobaccofree campus, we have tailored our efforts to not only provide a smoke-free environment, but support our employees in their effort and commitment to adopting healthier lifestyle choices,” said Latrice Bankhead, health and wellness coordinator for High Point Regional Health System. Hospitals receiving the acknowledgment are considered Gold Star Standard Hospitals. NCPP is working with state hospital corporate leaders and staff to enhance tobacco cessation efforts and resources available to all hospital employees and patients.

Wesleyan grads urged to ‘hold onto their dreams’ BY VICKI KNOPFLER ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – The 82 new graduates of Wesleyan Christian Academy were sent into the literally stormy night Friday and an unknown future with words of humor, hope and caution. High school Principal Tim Rickman even comforted parents of the college-bound seniors by saying, “Trust me parents, you will survive; you will make it.” Salutatorian Nathan Hoggard DON DAVIS JR. | HPE

‘Great feats are achieved with dreams. ... Cynicism will jade us. It attacks all of us.’ Rick Kavanaugh Pastor, First Wesleyan Church spoke, most often humorously, about outstanding characteristics of the Wesleyan teachers, memories of his time there and hopes for students’ future. “I know we are ready to move on ... ,” Hoggard said. “We have no idea what’s to come, but don’t worry, we have ample re-

Sisters clash over boyfriend’s homework help

D

ear Abby: I’m an “A� student, but my boyfriend, “Rory,� has a difficult time in school, so he often comes over for help. We work at the computer in the room my sister and I share so she listens to everything we discuss. She says we are cheating because I’m doing most of his homework for him. I don’t give Rory the answers to questions, but I do give him “hints� and tell him where he’s likely to find the answers in the textbooks. I always check that the answers are correct. With his math homework, I tell him each step he needs to take, but he actually does the math himself and then I check for accuracy. If he needs to write an essay, I suggest what he might want to write and help him with some of the edits. My sister thinks what I do goes far beyond help, and that I’m enabling him to cheat. She feels that while it may help his grades now, I am doing him no favors in the long run. We had a big argument over this. I don’t think it’s any of her business. I’d really appreciate your opinion. – Helping Or Cheating? Sacramento, California Dear Helping: Thank you for asking. I’m sure you care deeply for Rory, but sometimes – with

the best of intentions – a person can do too much. When you suggest topics for your ADVICE boyfriend’s essays, then Dear edit them so Abby the teacher ■■■won’t see where he needs to strengthen his English skills, what you’re really doing is preventing him from learning how to properly spell or construct a sentence. And when you’re no longer around to be his filter, it’s going to become apparent. The same goes for math. If you tell Rory what steps to take to solve his math problems, he won’t master the concepts or memorize the formulas. Heaven help him if he plans to take a college entrance exam! While the argument you had with your sister was regrettable, please try not to be so defensive. She was trying to tell you something important, and it couldn’t hurt to really listen. Dear Abby: I’m a 13-year-old girl in junior high. I am very shy and self-conscious. When I see skinny girls, I look at myself and feel embarrassed or ashamed. I have a lot of friends who support me. They say I shouldn’t

worry about my weight and that I don’t need to lose any more. I would like some words of encouragement from you. It seems like nothing can stop the way I feel. I have a boyfriend, but our relationship is long-distance. We talk online and he is as supportive as he can be, but I still feel selfconscious. Please help me with this. – Teen In Need in North Carolina Dear Teen: The harder we stare at our imagined flaws, the bigger they become. So please stop constantly comparing yourself to others. It’s a depressing waste of time. Very few people are completely confident and self-assured at 13, and there are more important qualities to focus on in life than whatever happens to be the ideal of physical perfection at the moment. Your time would be better spent developing qualities that not only make you special, but also will last a lifetime – your personality, your intellect and your talents. So listen to what your friends and your boyfriend are telling you. Spend a few minutes every day reminding yourself of all the things you have going for you and the special qualities you have to offer. If you do you’ll have less time to dwell on the negative.

ven though the common coneflower or Echinacea flower is native to the Eastern and central parts of the United States, today’s modern coneflower found in garden centers is far from common. A multiuse flower, Echinacea can be at home in the landscape, the vase or the medicine cabinet. Herbalists know that in Germany and much of the United States, it is respected as an immune response enhancer and a dietary supplement; flower lovers like it for its cutflower uses as well as a landscape dazzler; bird and butterfly lovers know it attracts both in large numbers to the nectar and later the seeds. Echinacea are traditionally multi-stemmed plants with bushy, upright growth and large flower stalks that lift the coneflowers well above the plant base. Coneflowers prefer full sun but will tolerate partial shade conditions. It does well in average or poor soil and Echinacea has a thick taproot that grows deep to allow for water conservation once established. A native plant to our prairies, it needs full sun and a pH of 5.8-7.3 so adding lime to the soil is

“You fancy yourself a wordsmith,” my friend the English professor said. “Can you take a common one-syllable word, add one letter and make a three-syllable word?” Before I could think about it, the prof displayed today’s deal. “My partner booted four hearts,” he growled. “He covered the jack of clubs with dummy’s queen, captured East’s king and led the king of trumps. West won and continued clubs. Declarer ruffed the third club with the ten, drew trumps, led a trump to dummy’s seven and led the queen of spades: five, three, seven.

SPADE LOSER “Dummy next led a diamond. East grabbed his ace and exited with a diamond, and my partner had to lose a spade. Down one.” Many problems in dummy play are in the area of managing entries. South handled the trumps well, but he must follow to the queen of spades with his jack. He can let the ten ride next and then lead a diamond toward the king. For one solution to the word puzzle, see the first sentence in the preceding paragraph.

How to judge exercise

D

ear Dr. Donohue: I am in my 70s and attend vigorous aerobic exercise classes three times a week. We monitor our heart rate. Mine increases only about five feats. Others get significantly higher increases. I take nadolol to control a heart-rhythm problem. Is my exercise regimen benefiting my heart? – W.S.

BLONDIE

An increase in heart rate indicates the intensity of exercise. Because you take nadolol (Corgard), a beta blocker medicine, you will never be able to raise your heartbeat to the levels required to benefit the heart. Beta-blocker drugs slow the heartbeat. Don’t despair. Your exercise gives you and your heart plenty of benefits. Aerobic exercise is the kind of exercise that gives the heart a workout and lowers blood pressure. The intensity of aerobic exercise has to reach a certain level to obtain any gains from exercise. Monitoring heart rate provides evidence that you are in the “training zone.” Subtracting your age from 220 gives a rough approximation of your maximum heart rate. Taking 60 percent to 80 percent of your maximum heart rate indicates the lower and upper bounds of your training zone. You cannot use this approach because of your medicine. You can, however – and so can all exercisers – use another method for determining exercise intensity. That is perceived exertion. You determine the intensity of an exer-

cise by how it feels to you. You can forget taking your pulse. The scale of perceived HEALTH exertion runs from Dr. Paul six to 20. Donohue Six is so ■■■ light an exertion that it really can’t be called exercise. Twenty is so demanding that few people are able to perform at that level. Thirteen is the level of intensity that gives the heart a sufficient workout. Thirteen translates into “somewhat hard.” You judge if the exercise is somewhat hard. It’s as valid a way of determining exercise intensity as heartbeat is. What you deem as “somewhat hard” at the beginning of an exercise program may drop down to a lesser ranking as you gain stamina and conditioning. “Somewhat hard,” therefore, evolves as you evolve into a better-conditioned athlete. Dear Dr. Donohue: You stress that people should walk for exercise. I am unable to walk. What exercise can I do to help my heart? – M.M. You can do upper-body exercises while seated. You have to do them without much of a pause so the exercise qualifies as aerobic exercise. Exercise with stretch rubber bands or light dumbbells will give you a good workout and will help your heart. Do them for a minimum of 10

minutes without a break. As you become accustomed to the exercise, aim for a total of 30 minutes a day. Three 10-minute sessions are acceptable. Is swimming possible for you? It’s an excellent way to stay in shape and help the heart. People with disabilities should contact the National Center on Physical Activity and Disability for a slew of information on how to exercise. The toll-free number is 800-900-8086 and the website is ncpad.org. Dear Dr. Donohue: I lifted 5-pound weights a few weeks ago and shortly after developed a trigger thumb. My other hand developed a trigger index and middle finger. It seems odd, because I have lifted weights before with no problems. My doctor said to soak my hands in warm water 15 minutes twice a day. It’s not working. What else can I do besides surgery? – B.P. A trigger finger is one that locks in a bent position for a while until it suddenly straightens with a snapping sound. It sounds like a gun’s trigger. The usual causes are overuse, injury or arthritis. For how many days did you lift weights? Soaking in warm water several times a day usually calms the inflammation that’s causing the problem. Aleve, Advil, Motrin and similar medicines help too. If these don’t work for you, the doctor can inject the fingers with a cortisone drug. That almost always works. Save surgery for last.

WINSTON-SALEM – Glenn’s softball team will have to wait until this afternoon – and perhaps as late as Monday – to see if the Bobcats can catch lightning in a bottle. Friday night’s highly anticipated game between 26-2 Glenn and 280 North Davidson was suspended by lightning in the bottom of the second inning and never resumed as storms swept across the Triad. School officials will decide this morning at 10 if field conditions and today’s weather will permit the game to be played at 1 p.m. If not, the N.C. High School Athletic Association 4A West Regional semifinal will take place Monday night at 7. The winner advances to next weekend’s championship series against the other Western finalist and the last two teams standing in the East. Glenn grabbed a 1-0 lead Friday night, with Rachel Wilson crossing the plate just as lightning lit up the sky over the Bobcats’ home field. Wilson singled and took second on Catherine Head’s sacrifice bunt. Meagan Tilley then followed with a sharp single off North star Tess Swing. The ball was bobbled in center field, allowing Wilson to race home.

Hendrick Motorsports teammates Kyle Busch (right) and Denny Hamlin talk after Thursday’s qualifying runs for Sunday’s NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway in Concord.

Drivers enjoy spat L

ike a gawker at a train wreck or someone intrigued by celebrity spats, Jimmie Johnson admits that he loves to watch. He can’t turn away from NASCAR’s latest dust-up among teammates – even though he knows what it is like to be in the middle of one. Johnson came under the microscope when he and longtime friend Jeff Gordon went through a series of on-track incidents in April that didn’t please their car owner, Rick Hendrick. Now, he enjoys SPORTS seeing how things are going to play Greer out between Denny Smith Hamlin and Kyle ■■■ Busch following the incident in Saturday’s All-Star race in which Busch drove into the wall trying to overtake Hamlin for the lead, went ballistic to the point of saying he was going to kill Hamlin for moving out of the way, and stormed into Hamlin’s hauler for a meeting. “With the teammate situation, it’s so much fun to watch it take place, and to hear what goes on, but when you’re living it, it (stinks),” Johnson said on Thursday at Charlotte Motor Speedway. “Everybody wants to know what’s going on. But to think for a few days how you need to handle what you want to say and you don’t know how they’re going to be received or what people are going to think or what your teammate is going to say or how it’s going to be received, there is distraction that takes place. So, I’m glad it’s not me. “It’s certainly fun to watch and I know we entertained a lot of people a few races back when Jeff (Gordon) and I were going through our thing, but it’s a tough environment as teammates racing for wins and I guess it shows that it doesn’t matter what organization you drive for or who the teammates are, you’re seeing what we want week in and week out. We want to win races.” Busch was unrepentant and still believed Thursday morning that

Hamlin was in the wrong. Hamlin got a couple of verbal shots at Busch on Thursday afternoon. Both said they were willing to put the incident behind them and work together for the remainder of the season, bringing home a championship for Joe Gibbs Racing being their objective. The prevailing view in the garage area was that Hamlin did nothing wrong in the race keeping his line as the leader. Kurt Busch even thought his younger brother made an error. Now the onlookers continue watching to see how the rift will impact two drivers who have won five of the past seven races: Hamlin three and Busch two. Johnson was among those wishing the spat continues as he tries to regain his early-season form that produced three wins in the first four races. He has not won since he and Gordon went through their rough waters. “From a competitive standpoint, I hope they keep fighting,” Johnson said. “I hope they keep entertaining us, because it’s a distraction. From a friendship standpoint, obviously the sooner they get it behind them, the better. I want to see it continue on because they’re both fast drivers and have a chance at winning this weekend.” In the short run, Kurt Busch believes that the clash might be detrimental. In the long run, he said it could provide positive motivation for both. “When teammates start to feud, it doesn’t do anything good for the team internally and it usually starts with something on track,” Kurt Busch said before qualifying second for Sunday’s Coca-Cola 600. “Just like this season, we’ve had Jeff Gordon really upset with Jimmie Johnson after Talladega. On the outside, you always hope when you see top drivers feuding like that, it might soften them up where they don’t run as competitive at the track. That’s what you have to be careful of. In the long run, you know that these guys are going to work it out.” Richard Childress Racing driver

AP

Jimmie Johnson looks out from his car during practice for Sunday’s race at Charlotte Motor Speedway. Johnson is a spectator in NASCAR’s latest driver feud after tangling earlier this year with teammate Jeff Gordon. Jeff Burton was another who thought the younger Busch and Hamlin might turn the whole escapade into a positive. “My concern was that it will just make them both want it more, and that may not be in our best interest,” Burton said. “They’re both very good racecar drivers; obviously, their equipment is very good and it might (tick) them off and put them in a position where they’re trying even harder. I’m not sure that that would be a good thing for us.” Burton added that another feud of the week will most likely change the conversation. That’s quite likely in stock-car racing’s world of tempers. Until then, Kyle Busch and Hamlin will be watched closely. gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3519

re you ready for some frigid, frozen Super Bowl action? I hope so, because the 2014 Super Bowl will be played at the new $1.6 billion Meadowlands Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J. The average temperature in that neck of the woods around 6:30 p.m. (kickoff time) in early February? Try 34 degrees. While some folks have complained about

the potential cold, snowy Super Bowl weather, I love it. Football is a tough game. Its true fans aren’t deterred by wintry weather. I hope it snows to beat the band on Super Sunday in ‘14. Here’s hoping the AFC champion Miami Dolphins and NFC champion Tampa Bay Buccaneers slip, slide and shiver their way to a 2-0 final with a combined 25

punts and minus-50 yards of total offense. Warm-weather sites are great for surfing and beach blanket bingo. The NFL needs a Super Bowl on the frozen tundra of Meadowlands Stadium. I can’t wait. Just don’t forget the hot chocolate and parkas.

Mainstay Edwards off Nationwide pace BY GREER SMITH ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER

AP

Helio Castroneves spins his tires on his way to winning the pit stop competition at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway on Friday. Castroneves starts on the pole in Sunday’s Indy 500.

Stars aligning for Castroneves INDIANAPOLIS (AP) – Helio Castroneves has a serious case of deja vu. Last year, the Brazilian driver won the pole, the pitstop challenge and the Indianapolis 500. He’s already won the pole and the pit challenge this year. Next stop, Victory Lane? He’ll be going for a record-

tying fourth Indy 500 win on Sunday. But Friday, his focus was on his Penske crew, which beat Hideki Mutoh’s Newman/Haas Racing team in the pit stop challenge final. “Today is their day,” Castroneves said. “I just have to sit down and drive the car. But it certainly is great to

Rematch gets closer PARIS (AP) – So much has transpired in the nearly 21⁄2 years since Maria Sharapova and Justine Henin last played each other. Sharapova needed right shoulder surgery and was off the tour for 10 months, then missed time with a right elbow injury. Henin abruptly announced her retirement and stayed away for 20 months, then returned, happier off the court and, so far, almost as good on it. The two former No. 1s, owners of a combined 10 Grand Slam titles, set up an attention-worthy showdown in the French Open’s third round Saturday by wrapping up matter-of-fact victories on a sun-soaked, busy Friday. “Comes very early, of course, third round,” Henin said. “But I feel ready for it.” Relentless rain Thursday created a backlog of matches, meaning that nearly every big name

carry this momentum to the race. Because I know when I go out there, I will rely on these guys and normally, I’m sure we’re going to succeed as well.” Castroneves said the team’s attitude is the key to its success. Penske has won five consecutive pit-stop challenges and 12 overall.

STORRS, Conn. (AP) – Connecticut coach Jim Calhoun and the men’s basketball program he took from obscurity to national titles have been accused of eight major NCAA infractions, with investigators citing hundreds of improper calls and texts from UConn staff to recruits. The school released a notice from the NCAA on Friday that lays out the allegations against the Hall-of-Fame coach, his staff and the school. Besides the calls and texts, the accusations include giving recruits improper benefits and improperly distributing free tickets to high school coaches and others. Calhoun is cited for failing to promote an atmosphere of compliance. “It’s not exactly, certainly anywhere near the high point of my career, as a matter of fact it’s certainly one of the

NHL Draft drama leads to Cup shot CHICAGO (AP) – Three years ago, a pingpong ball took a fortuitous bounce for the Chicago Blackhawks, almost like a sliding puck, and they came out winners in a lottery that has revived the franchise. With just an 8 percent chance of winning the top pick in 2007, the Blackhawks were able to leapfrog the team with the worst record, the Philadelphia Flyers, to make Patrick Kane their No. 1 choice. Kane went to Chicago and became the rookie of the year, while the Flyers took James van Riemsdyk with the second pick. Now both players are in the Stanley Cup finals, facing each other with Game 1 set for tonight at the United Center. “It seems like it’s almost worked out good for both teams,” Kane said. “They’re here three years later. I’m here three years later, our team is, and that’s the most important thing for this franchise.” The Blackhawks are searching for their first title since the days of Bobby Hull and Stan Mikita in 1961. The Flyers are looking for their first championship since the Broad

CONCORD – If you go down the list of Nationwide winners this season, some of the usual suspects stand out. Going into today’s 300-mile race at Charlotte Motor Speedway, the 12th event of the season, defending Nationwide champ Kyle Busch has won four times. Kevin Harvick, a two-time Nationwide champ, has won twice. Brad Keselowski also has two wins. Surprisingly, the list does not include 2007 Nationwide champ Carl Edwards, who has 25 victories in NASCAR’s No. 2 series over the past five years and has finished no lower than second in the standings over the past four years. For the most part, he’s been slightly off the pace this year since finishing second in the season opener at Daytona. He’s led just 62 laps and has just five top-five finishes. Thanks to a 30th at Texas and 35th at Talladega, he is fourth in the standings – 220 behind leader Keselowski. The good news for Edwards in the points battle is that he is second among drivers who are going to run all the races. The bad news

HURRICANES SIGN PAIR

---

The Carolina Hurricanes signed forward Jiri Tlusty and defenseman Jay Harrison to oneyear contracts Friday. Each player will make $500,000 this season. The Hurricanes acquired the 22-year-old Tlusty from Toronto in December in exchange for the rights to prospect Philippe Paradis. He had one goal and five assists in 18 games with Carolina, and skated in 39 games in the AHL last season. The 27-year-old Harrison had one goal, five assists and 50 penalty minutes in 38 games with Carolina.

Street Bullies socked their way to the second of backto-back Stanley Cup titles in 1975 – long before Kane or van Riemsdyk, both 21, were born. The two played together in the world juniors and remain close. They went to dinner when the Blackhawks were in Philadelphia for their only meeting this season. Now comes a shot at the Cup.

“You never know what could have happened. I think going into that draft, the Blackhawks were like fifth to last place or whatever you want to call it at that time,” Kane said. “So it was kind of a shocker they got the first overall pick. ... To be honest with you, I was kind of excited when Chicago got it.” Kane headed right to the NHL after he was selected No. 1 and quickly emerged as a star, a consistent scoring threat with his speed and puck handling skills. Van Riemsdyk took a different route, heading off to college first and then signing with the Flyers a little more than a year ago. “We were both put in different situations and we were in different stages of our hockey development and, you know, I did what I thought was best for me to be a better player,” van Riemsdyk said. “He was obviously ready to make that jump right after the draft. He’s done a good job for himself.” And for his team. The Blackhawks were playing before a half-empty arena before Kane and 22-year-old captain Jonathan Toews arrived and became the centerpieces.

lowest points at any time that you are accused of doing something,” said Calhoun, who has led the Huskies since 1986 and taken them to the Final Four three times. “It’s a very serious matter.” The allegations come at the end of a 15-month investigation into the recruiting of former player Nate Miles, who was expelled from UConn in October 2008 without ever playing a game for the Huskies. He was charged with violating a restraining order in a case involving a woman who claimed he assaulted her. The NCAA alleges 160 impermissible telephone calls and at least 191 impermissible text messages between recruits and coaches, including assistants Beau Archibald, Patrick Sellers, Andre LeFler, associate head coach George Blaney, and then-assistant Tom Moore.

is Keselowski is another of those drivers. Edwards and Keselowski are two of three Cup drivers intending to compete in every race in both Cup and Nationwide. Paul Menard is the other. Because both series are here this weekend, the competition is a little more stiff, with 12 drivers who qualified for Sunday’s Coca-Cola 600 seeking a spot in the 300. Those drivers are headed by Busch, who is seeking his fourth victory in the five Nationwide races at CMS. “Somebody was telling me that this was the first time we have been out of the top two in a couple of years,” Edwards said. “I don’t think it matters if there are Cup drivers there or not, the competition is really stiff. There are guys out there that are running really well. We just have to keep our head down and keep going forward.” Qualifying to determine the 43car starting field is at 9 a.m., with the race at 2:45 p.m. In final practice Thursday, rookie driver Trevor Bayne zipped to the fastest lap of 177.713 mph. Ryan Newman, Keselowski, Brian Scott and Kasey Kahne completed the top five. Busch was eighth, with Edwards just 19th. gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3519

Molder leads, Phil leaves THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

FORT WORTH, Texas – Bryce Molder shot a career-best 8-under 62 and leads after two rounds at the Colonial. Molder’s round Friday got him to 13 under. That’s good for a one-stroke lead over first-round co-leader Jason Bohn and two strokes better than Kris Blanks and Brian Davis. Molder had a chance to match the course record of 61, but missed an 8-foot birdie putt at the 18th hole.

Post 87 romps ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

THOMASVILLE – Mike Whited’s three-run homer sparked a nine-run third inning as the Post 87 Junior HiToms blasted Eastern Randolph Post 81 by a 12-2 score. Friday’s American Legion Baseball Area III North game was stopped in the sixth inning due to lightning. Kevin Sanders went 2-for-2 with a two-run homer and three RBIs, while Victor Zecca was 2-for-3 with an RBI. Whited scored four runs. David Coffey struck out nine in six innings for the mound win. Post 87 visits Western Forsyth today.

HITOMS WAIT OUT RAIN ASHEBORO – The Thomasville HiToms endured a 70-minute rain delay Friday and were still playing in Asheboro at press time. The HiToms play host to Martinsville tonight at 7 at Finch Field.

ROCK HILL, S.C. – Down 6-1 early, No. 1 seed Coastal Carolina hit four home runs to defeat No. 4 High Point 15-9 in Friday night’s semifinal of the Big South Baseball Championship at The Winthrop Ballpark. The Chanticleers improved to 50-7 and advanced to the championship game. High Point fell to 31-28 and was scheduled to play No. 2 Liberty later Friday in an elimination contest. Rain wiped out that game, however, moving it to 11 a.m. today. The winner then will have to beat Coastal twice to steal the league crown and advance to the NCAA Regionals. “Our guys played very hard today, but for every pitcher we had, they had an offensive answer,� Panthers coach Craig Cozart said of the Chants. “It shows how strong they are as a team, because they beat you in so many ways. Our guys are ready: We will get the win and see Coastal again.� After lightning and rain delayed the start of Friday’s game 1 hour, 43 min-

utes, High Point sent eight batters to the plate in the first inning and jumped to a 3-0 lead. Matt Gantner had an RBI single off Coastal starter Josh Conway and Kyle Mahoney added a two-run single. In the second inning, Mike Mercurio belted a two-out solo home run to make it 4-0 on his first career homer, and it was 6-1 entering the bottom of the fourth. There, Daniel Bowman connected for a grand slam off Al Yevoli, and in the fifth, Scott Woodward and Jose Iglesias hit back-to-back solo homers to tie the game at 7-7. Coastal took its first lead of the game in the sixth when new High Point pitcher Spencer Andrews balked in Bowman, and the lead grew to 10-7 before the Chants padded their cushion with five in the eighth. “I told the kids in the huddle that this is one of the biggest wins of the season,� Coastal coach Gary Gilmore said. “Honestly, they had the momentum and were effective on the mound. Bowman’s swing got us going. It was a collection of other good at-bats by a lot of guys.�

Reynolds to close Triad plant, one other RICHMOND, Va. (AP) – Tobacco company Reynolds American Inc. said Friday it will close two cigarette plants – one in its headquarters city in Winston-Salem, N.C., and another in Puerto Rico – as it adjusts to declining demand for cigarettes. The nation’s second-largest cigarette maker said production of cigarettes like Camel and Pall Mall will start to shift to its largest facility in nearby Tobaccoville, N.C., this summer. Workers at the WinstonSalem plant will transition to the other facility. In December, Reynolds

Shell buys US oil, gas company for $4.7 billion AMSTERDAM – Royal Dutch Shell PLC said Friday it will buy East Resources Inc., a major owner of shale gas holdings in the northeast United States, for $4.7 billion from private investors. Europe’s largest oil company said it will pay cash for East Resources, which produces oil and gas equivalents of 10,000 barrels of oil per day, mostly in Marcellus Shale, which extends over large parts of the northeastern United States.

Investment group buys SC-based hotel chain CHICAGO – A group of investors led by Centerbridge Partners LP has won an auction to buy the hotel chain Extended Stay Hotels Inc. out of bankruptcy court protection for nearly $4 billion, according to a report published Friday. Citing “people familiar with the matter,” The Wall Street Journal says Centerbridge and other investors, including Paulson & Co. and Blackstone Group, bid $3.93 billion for the struggling chain of 680 properties.

Interest rates fall on Spain credit NEW YORK – Interest rates dipped in the bond market Friday as fresh worries about Spain’s creditworthiness led investors to buy up safe-haven assets like Treasurys. The yield on the 10year note, which is often used as a benchmark for consumer loans and mortgages, fell to 3.30 percent in afternoon trading, from 3.36 percent Thursday. Its price rose 59.375 cents to $101.71875. The price of the 30-year bond rose 96.875 cents to $102.84375, pushing its yield down to 4.21 percent from 4.26 percent. ENTERPRISE NEWS SERVICE REPORTS

offered buyouts to about 1,800 workers at the North Carolina manufacturing plants to cut costs. About 400 workers opted to take the offer. Most of the reductions were scheduled to take place in 2010 and begin as early as January, and others will have release dates in early 2011. Reynolds said about 60 jobs in Puerto Rico will be eliminated in the consolidation, but distribution operations in Puerto Rico are not affected by the plant closure, the company said. Reynolds American also said Friday that it will ex-

pand its smokeless tobacco processing and manufacturing capacity at facilities in Memphis and Clarksville, Tenn. The maker of Kodiak and Grizzly smokeless tobacco said the two plants will be fully operational by early 2012. Its current plant in Memphis, built in 1904, will close the same year. Workers will be moved to the new facilities. “These changes make our companies more efficient in light of the declining U.S. cigarette industry and growth in smokeless tobacco,” CEO Susan Ivey said in a news release.

Consumer spending stalled in April WASHINGTON (AP) – Consumers don’t appear confident enough in the economy to open their wallets more freely. Their spending stalled in April. Without stronger job creation and higher pay, people are less likely to up their spending in the months ahead and invigorate the recovery. The flat level for consumer spending was the weakest showing in seven months, according to the Commerce Department report. Personal incomes rose 0.4 percent, in line with expectations but not fast enough to help generate real growth. Falling gas prices and cheaper utility bills could make people feel better about spending more over the summer. So could historically low mortgage

rates. That would lead more people to refinance and leave them with more disposable income. But Nigel Gault, an economist at IHS Global Insight, said employment will be key to supporting income growth in coming months. “The consumer needs sustainable income support, so employment reports including next Friday’s will be key signals of just how robust consumption will be over the rest of 2010,” Gault said. Economists are looking for 503,000 jobs to be added in May. That would be better than April’s 290,000 increase, the biggest one-month rise in four years. The May surge is expected to include a sizable number of temporary census workers hired by the government.

Toys R Us to go public again NEW YORK (AP) – Toys R Us Inc. said Friday that it plans to go public again by raising as much as $800 million in an initial public offering, a bid to take advantage of its business turnaround even in a rocky IPO market. The offering would be one of the biggest retail IPOs in years. But experts say IPOs so far this year have been disappointing, so pricing will be key. Despite the recession dampening sales over the past year, Toys R Us has steadily improved net income under CEO Jerry Storch, the former Target Corp. vice chairman who joined the company in 2006. The year before, the company had been taken

private in a $6.6 billion buyout by investors led by Bain Capital, Kohlberg Kravis Roberts and Vornado Realty Trust. Under Storch, the company has improved its merchandise selection and customer service and become more competitive on price, toy analyst Jim Silver said. “He put the moms back in stores,” he said. “The whole store experience is a much better experience.” BMO Capital Markets analyst Gerrick Johnson said the timing for the IPO makes sense because the toy industry is doing well, Toys R Us has been taking market share from key competitors Target and Wal-Mart Stores Inc.

Debt woes put markets on edge NEW YORK (AP) – Stocks closed out their worst month in more than a year by sliding again on more unsettling news about Europe. The Dow Jones industrials dropped 122 points Friday after Fitch Ratings gave Spain the second downgrade of its credit rating in a month. The rating agency’s action was another reminder to traders of the long-term economic problems still facing several European countries, and perhaps the rest of the continent and the global economy as well. May was difficult as persistent and intensifying worries about Europe’s debt problems sent the Dow down 7.9 percent and the broader Standard & Poor’s 500 index down 8.2 percent. Both indexes had their worst monthly performance since February 2009, the month before stocks began their recovery from 12-year lows. The Dow had its biggest May drop since 1962. The last trading day of May fit the pattern of the rest of the month. Stocks alternately plunged and recovered, then dropped late in the day as investors facing a three-day holiday weekend decided to play it safe and sell. “People are worried about Europe and we’re seeing a knee-jerk reaction, particularly ahead of a long weekend,” said Joe Heider, a principal at Rehmann in Cleveland. He said traders won’t want to be holding some investments since U.S. markets are closed Monday while European ones are open.

Man accused in $70 million international Ponzi scheme EAST ST. LOUIS, Ill. (AP) – The U.S. government has accused a former Canadian resident possibly living in the Philippines of bilking some 40,000 investors spanning six continents of $70 million in an Internet-based Ponzi scheme. A 10-count federal complaint filed Friday charges Nicholas Smirnow, 53, with conspiracy and fraud counts in the alleged scheme the federal investigators say covered two years until 2009 and included victims in every U.S. state except Maine and Vermont. The office of the U.S.

attorney for southern Illinois said in a statement that Smirnow, formerly of Baysville, Ontario, has been living in the Philippines. It did not indicate Smirnow’s nationality, if he was still believed to be in the Philippines or if he was in custody. A. Courtney Cox, the U.S. attorney for southern Illinois, declined to provide more details, simply describing the case as “massive.” “This is a case of national importance, there’s no question about that,” Cox told The Associated Press. Messages left with In-

terpol, the Paris-based international police intelligence-sharing association, seeking information about Smirnow’s whereabouts were not immediately returned. Authorities say Smirnow’s “Pathway-2Prosperity” lured investors with what the complaint termed the hallmark of a high-yield investment scheme – claims of low- or no-risk investment plans, in this case supposedly yielding annual returns of anywhere from 546 to 17,000 percent. Investors were offered their choice of seven-, 15-, 30- and 60day plans.

Regulators close three Florida banks WASHINGTON (AP) – Regulators on Friday shut down three affiliated banks in Florida, bringing the number of U.S. bank failures this year to 76. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. took over the banks, all owned by holding company Bank of Florida Corp. They are: Bank of FloridaSoutheast, based in Fort Lauderdale, with $595.3 million in assets; Bank of Florida-Southwest, based in Naples, with $640.9 million in assets; and Bank of Florida-Tampa Bay, based in Tampa, with $245.2 million in assets.

deposits of the failed banks. In addition, the FDIC and EverBank agreed to share losses on the three banks’ loans and other assets. Losses will be shared on $437.3 million of Bank of Florida-Southeast’s assets, on $568.1 million of Bank of Florida-Southwest’s assets and on $210.8 million of Bank of FloridaTampa Bay’s assets. The failures of the three banks are expected to cost the deposit insurance fund a total of about $203 million. With 76 closures so far this year, the pace of bank failures is more than double that of 2009, which was already a brisk year

for shutdowns. By this time last year, regulators had closed 36 banks. The pace has accelerated as banks’ losses mount on loans made for commercial property and development. The number of bank failures is expected to peak this year and to be slightly higher than the 140 that fell in 2009. That was the highest annual tally since 1992, at the height of the savings and loan crisis. The 2009 failures cost the insurance fund more than $30 billion. Twenty-five banks failed in 2008, the year the financial crisis struck with force, and only three succumbed in 2007.

Actor Gary Coleman dies PROVO, Utah (AP) – Gary Coleman, the adorable, pint-sized child star of the smash 1970s TV sitcom “Diff’rent Strokes” who spent the rest of his life struggling on Hollywood’s D-list, died Friday after suffering a brain hemorrhage. He was 42. Life support was terminated and Coleman died at 12:05 p.m. MDT with family and friends at his side, Utah Valley Regional Medical Center spokeswoman Janet Frank said. Coleman, with his sparkling eyes and perfect comic timing, quickly became a star after “Diff’rent Strokes” debuted in 1978. He played Arnold Jackson, the younger one of a pair of African-American brothers adopted by a wealthy white man. His skeptical “Whatchu talkin’ ’bout?” – usually aimed at older brother Willis – became a catchphrase. “It’s unfortunate. It’s a sad day,” said Todd Bridges, who played Willis. “It’s sad that I’m the last kid alive from the show.” The series lives on thanks to DVDs and YouTube. But its equally enduring legacy became the troubles in adulthood of its former child stars.

In this Feb. 26, 2008, file photo, actor Gary Coleman, best known from the television series “Diff’rent Strokes” and his wife Shannon Price, appear on the the NBC “Today” television program in New York. In 1989, Bridges was acquitted of attempted murder in the shooting of a drug dealer. The then 24-year-old Bridges testified he became depressed and turned to drugs after “Diff’rent

Strokes” was canceled. Dana Plato, who played the boys’ white, teenage sister, pleaded guilty in 1991 to a robbery charge. She died in 1999 of an overdose of painkiller and muscle relaxer.

Obama extends roadless moratorium GRANTS PASS, Ore. (AP) – The Obama administration Friday extended for another year the moratorium on most logging and mining in millions of acres of remote and rugged backcountry sections of national forests. Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack said from Washington, D.C., he

wants to continue to give decisions on projects in roadless areas a higher level of scrutiny while waiting for federal courts to resolve the legal issues. The idea of preserving roadless areas for wildlife habitat and clean water came out of the Clinton administration.

The Bush administration tried to open them up to more logging and mining by giving states control. Conservation groups and the timber industry both welcomed the moratorium due to the continued questions over the legal standing of the policy.

In 2008 photo, former Navy Vice Admiral and Democratic Congressman Joe Sestak introduces former President Bill Clinton.

White House: Nothing wrong with Sestak job offer WASHINGTON (AP) – Forced to disclose backstage political bargaining, President Barack Obama’s embarrassed White House said Friday it had enlisted Bill Clinton to try to ease Rep. Joe Sestak out of Pennsylvania’s Senate primary with a job offer. Nothing wrong with that, the White House

‘I wasn’t interested, and that was the bottom line.’ Joe Sestak Pa. Congressman said. Oh, yes, there was, Republicans countered. The administration admission – it said Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel had asked the former president to call Sestak – left many questions unanswered, and it seemed unlikely the issue had been put to rest. For Obama, the revelations called into question his repeated promises to run an open government that was above back room deals. And for Sestak, they raised questions why he kept talking about the offer – a 60-second conversation, he said Friday – in the first place. “I wasn’t interested, and that was the bottom line,” Sestak said on the steps of the Capitol.

President Barack Obama (left) picks up a “tar ball” as LaFourche Parish president Charlotte Randolph (center) and U.S. Coast Guard Admiral Thad Allen, National Incident Commander for the BP Deepwater Horizon oil spill, look on during a tour of areas impacted by the Gulf Coast oil spill, Friday, in Port Fourchon, La.

Tar balls and promises: Obama visits Gulf Coast GRAND ISLE, La. (AP) – Kneeling to pick up tar balls on an oil-fouled beach and listening to “heartbreaking stories” of loss, President Barack Obama personally confronted the spreading damage wrought by the crude gushing into the Gulf of Mexico – and the bitter anger that’s rising onshore. “What can he really do?” said Billy Ward, a developer who comes to his beach house here every weekend and, like many other locals, had little positive to say about Obama’s trip to the beleaguered region on Friday. “If he wants to do something, let him get out there and pump some mud and cement into that hole. Just fix it. Help us.” BP PLC, even less popular here, kept up its efforts to “just fix it,” using its “top kill” procedure to try to stop the deep oil well leak by pumping in heavy mud. If it doesn’t work, something BP says

will be known within a couple of town threatened by what is now days, Obama’s own problems will established as the largest oil spill in American history. “People are only compound. watching their livelihoods wash up on the beach.” A BP drilling rig in the Gulf of Mexico exploded on April 20, killing 11 workers and beginning to send millions of gallons of oil spewing into the water. That oil is now beginning to foul beaches, kill wildlife and cripple the tourism and fishing industries on which this area depends. With the crude still flowing freely, Billy Ward criticism has been increasingly aimed at Obama and his adminGulf Coast developer istration. Amid concern that the environHe said he understands people “want it made right” and that mental and economic disaster their frustration won’t fade until could also engulf his presidency, the oil is stopped and cleaned up. Obama has stepped up his public “It’s an assault on our shores, appearances this week to demon our people, on the regional onstrate that he is engaged. He economy and on communities held a rare White House news like this one,” the president said conference on Thursday, focusfrom this small barrier island ing almost entirely on the spill.

‘If he wants to do something, let him get out there and pump some mud and cement into that hole. Just fix it. Help us.’

BP says attempt to plug well going as planned ROBERT, La. (AP) – BP’s chief operating officer says the attempt to plug the gushing Gulf oil well is going basically according to plan. Doug Suttles says the company has shot assorted junk into the well along with heavy drilling mud to try to over-

come the pressure of the oil. He says the job remains underway even though there have been stops and starts to the actual pumping of heavy mud into the well. He says it’s important not to read too much into the pauses. The oil has been flowing since

the drilling rig Deepwater Horizon exploded April 20. The spill is now the worst in U.S. history. Suttles also says the drilling of a second relief well has been suspended to prepare for a different way to try to cut off the oil if the top kill doesn’t work.

Mother, stepfather charged in boy’s death in Utah FARMINGTON, Utah (AP) – Aggravated murder charges were filed Friday against the mother and stepfather of a 4year old boy who police said was beaten to death then disfigured and buried in the mountains. Stephanie Sloop, 27, and Nathanael Sloop, 31, did not enter pleas during their initial court appearance. They were being held without bail in the death of Ethan Stacy. Davis County Attorney Troy Rawlings said a decision had not yet been made about whether to seek the death penalty, although the case was heading in that direction. Prosecutors have 60 days to make the determination.

Attorneys for the Sloops declined to comment because new lawyers qualified to represent death penalty defendants were expected to be appointed at a June 4 hearing. Searchers dug up Stacy’s disfigured body May 11 – 10 days after he arrived in Utah from Virginia for a summer visit with his mother. The county attorney’s office said the Sloops also were charged with child abuse, obstruction of justice and abuse or desecration of AP a body. All are felonies. Nathanael Sloop enters the courtroom at the formal initial appearance hearing at “The criminal acts in- Second District Court in Farmington, Utah, on Friday. cluded beatings, burning, drugging, isolating, mal- fusing to seek vital life-sus- Stephanie Sloop told in- burn the body before it nourishing, leaving the taining medical attention,” vestigators she bought was buried.

House approval of the ‘don’t ask, don’t tell’ repeal was a victory for President Barack Obama. vote, but many Republicans and a few conservative Democrats said they would vote against it because of the gay ban, which was added to the $700 billion bill in a 234194 vote late Thursday. House approval of the “don’t ask, don’t tell” repeal was a victory for President Barack Obama, who has pledged to change the policy, and for gay rights groups, who have made it their top priority this year. The bill would give the Pentagon the rest of the year to study the issue before the repeal would take effect. Defense Secretary Robert Gates appealed to the military Friday not to be distracted by the political debate over gays in uniform. In an unusual direct address to troops, Gates said he wanted to assure them that their views on the divisive question still matter.

Stevens denies Blagojevich request for delay WASHINGTON (AP) – The Supreme Court on Friday refused to delay ousted Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich’s trial on corruption charges, set to begin next week. Justice John Paul S t e v e n s rejected Blagojevich’s request Blagojevich w i t h o u t comment. His decision came shortly after the Obama administration told the high court that it opposed Blagojevich’s request. The former governor’s trial is scheduled to begin on Thursday. In Chicago, Blagojevich attorney Sheldon Sorosky said after hearing about the decision that the former governor’s legal team was ready for the trial to get under way. “We didn’t prepare presuming that the Supreme Court would rule in our favor – we prepared for the worst,” Sheldon Sorosky said. “The Supreme Court has ruled and that’s that.”

Mercedes C63 AMG has power, control BY ANN M. JOB THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NUTS & BOLTS

–

The compact C-Class cars are the most popular Mercedes-Benzes in this country. But only a few get the AMG treatment, where a handcrafted V-8 – complete with the name of the engine builder on it – is stuffed under the hood and big brakes and tires go into the wheel wells. A tradition that started in Mercedes’ larger cars carried into the C-Class in the 2008 model year, and the 2010 C63 AMG doesn’t divert from the famous formula. AMG is the sports/racing brand of Mercedes, and its vehicles hold special status around the world because of the attention to performance and exclusivity. Basically, if you have a Mercedes AMG vehicle in your garage, you’re part of a small club. But membership is expensive, even when the AMG model is Mercedes’ smallest car. Starting manufacturer’s suggested retail price, including destination charge and gas guzzler tax, is $60,325 for a base, 2010 C63 AMG with automatic transmission. This is $25,850 above the starting retail price for a

AP

The 2010 Mercedes Benz C63 AMG delivers a smooth, powerful ride with its 7-speed automatic transmission. base, regular C-Class sedan with manual transmission and 228-horsepower V-6. But it’s in line with competitors, including the 414horsepower, 2010 BMW M3 sedan, which has a starting MSRP, including destination charge, of $57,575 with manual transmission and V-8. Also, the 2010 Lexus IS F, with 416-horspower V-8

and automatic transmission, starts at $59,335. The Lexus doesn’t incur a gas guzzler tax, but the BMW M3 does. It’s $1,300 compared with the $2,100 tax that’s on the C63 AMG. The reason for the guzzler tax? Fuel economy ratings in the C63 AMG are so poor – just 12 miles per gallon in the city and 19 mpg on the highway. This puts the C63 AMG

10th worst in government fuel mileage ratings in the compact car segment in the United States. The ratings are akin to what some big, luxury sport utility vehicles get. For example, the federal government fuel mileage ratings for a 2010 Land Rover Range Rover are 12/18 mpg. The government figures aren’t artificially low. In aggressive city driving,

the test C63 AMG got just 13 mpg. Once highway travel added in, I managed to move the average fuel economy up to only 17.3 mpg. And the car requires pricey premium gasoline. But oh, the power from the handcrafted 6.3-liter V-8 is intoxicating. Passengers hear a low, sinister rumble from the V-8 nearly all the time and
