HIGH POINT – A ban on a form of video poker that is making its way through the state legislature may or may not be such a good idea, local residents say. The N.C. Senate by a vote of 47-1 approved legislation Monday to shutter hundreds of new businesses that bill supporters argue are offering just another form of illegal video poker where people buy phone or Internet time, then play games on computer screens to win cash and prizes.

The bill will now return to the House, where its future is uncertain because Democrats are divided on the issue. Some want to tax video poker and others want to wait until the courts resolve the issue. Gary Gibson, 48, of High Point agrees with Monday’s Senate vote. “I think the sweepstakes

The state may know something we don’t about these machines and their effects on a community.” High Point resident Megan Pratt, 37, disagrees with the ban. “If these sweepstakes will earn so much money for the state, why would they ban it?” Pratt said as she was

WHO’S NEWS

AT A GLANCE

–

The overwhelming passage on Monday of a proposal to ban certain video sweepstakes games continues the N.C. Senate’s long history of opposing video gambling, this time through electronic and computer-based devices springing up at new “sweepstakes cafes” or “business centers,” which is not gambling under the state’s current definition.

Steffany Reeve joined the Natural Science Center in Greensboro as the new director of marketing, effective July 5. Reeve is the former marketing director for the Greensboro Children’s Museum and also has many years of experience doing market research and consulting.

The Entertainment Group of North Carolina says the ban would cost nearly 10,000 jobs and hurt the state’s economy. North Carolina Senate leaders, sheriffs and Christian groups say the games are an end-run around the state’s 2006 video poker ban. A series of pending court cases where the illegality of the machines has been questioned has led to the new law attempting to tighten the ban. The number of such locations statewide has soared in recent months to about 600, according to Sen. Josh Stein, D-Wake, who is shepherding the bill through the Senate.

LEXINGTON – N.C. Secretary of State Elaine Marshall cruised to victory in the Democratic U.S. Senate primary runoff, deflating the hopes of more than 100 supporters of Cal CunningMarshall ham who gathered in his native city to watch returns Tuesday night. Marshall received 60 Cunningham percent, or 94,031 votes, to 40 percent, or 62,934, for Cunningham with unofficial returns from 95 counties. The veteran Democratic politician earned the nomination to take on first-term Republican Sen. Richard Burr in the Nov. 2 general election. Cunningham was gracious in defeat as he ad-

Cunningham, who thanked his family, staff and volunteers, said he’d be willing to campaign

with Marshall anywhere in the state to unify the ticket and help her win the general election. A former state senator and attorney who’s an Iraq war veteran, Cunningham couldn’t overcome the lead that Marshall established coming out of the May 4 primary and her statewide name recognition from being an elected official for nearly 15 years. Marshall, the longtime

N.C. Secretary of State, finished first May 4. The runoff, known formally as a second primary, was held because neither candidate received in excess of 40 percent of the vote May 4. The election Tuesday was open to registered Democratic voters and unaffiliated voters who cast ballots May 4. Marshall received 36 percent of the vote May 4. Cunningham finished sec-

ond in the six-candidate race with 27 percent. Cunningham supporters tried to keep their spirits up Tuesday night while gathered at the Lexington Civic Center. But as returns came in consistently showing Marshall with a wide lead, the reality began to set in that Cunningham’s campaign wouldn’t continue into the fall. pjohnson@hpe.com | 888-3528

Wadsworth wins party nod for sheriff BY DAVID NIVENS ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

GUILFORD COUNTY – The county’s only local run-off election produced a Democratic challenger Tuesday for Sheriff BJ Barnes in November. Newcomer Phil Wadsworth, a 60-year-old retired state trooper sergeant, got 56 percent and of the vote to 43 percent for C.B. Goins of Greensboro. Goins started ahead in the race in early voting, according to unofficial returns, but Wadsworth pulled ahead Tuesday in suburban and rural precincts to take a lead he never lost.

Wadsworth got 3,498 votes and Goins 2,726, mostly from urban precincts in Greensboro and High Point. “I had good workers and dedicated people helping me,” Wadsworth said. “They made the calls and went door to door.” The two candidates emerged from the May 4 primary when Wadsworth took 32 percent of the vote and Goins 23 percent. Because no candidate received 40 percent, Democrats and unaffiliated voters who cast ballots in the partisan May 4 primary went to the polls to elect a candidate to face Barnes who wants a fifth term.

Wadsworth said he expected many of the same issues to remain for the November campaign. “People want new leadership and change,” he said. “They want the county to be a safer place.” Wadsworth, a resident of Pleasant Garden and a security officer in the federal court system, aimed part of his campaign at improving the lives of young people with drug prevention and mentoring programs in middle schools. He shares similar views with Barnes on drug prevention, jails, the agency’s budget and use of Tasers. Wadsworth and Goins, 40, ran

low-key campaigns. Both candidates loaned their campaigns money, according to campaign reports. Goins, who took a break from the Thomasville Police Department, used social media websites in his campaign. He also has been an officer at North Carolina Agricultural & Technical State University, according to published profiles. Barnes, 59, easily won the Republican primary over challenger Scott Jones, a Greensboro businessman, with 90 percent of 18,000 votes cast in the race. dnivens@hpe.com | 888-3626

Archdale amends ordinance on electronic gaming operations

County school officials consider grant requests BY DAVID NIVENS ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

PAY PLAN

–

GUILFORD COUNTY – School district leaders will review two school improvement grant applications Thursday. A $12.2 million federal grant application for Teacher Incentive grant funds is aimed at improving the performance of 10 schools. The Investing in Innovation grant would provide $5 million over four years to improve teacher training and effectiveness. The board will meet at 6 p.m. Thursday at the district administrative offices in Greensboro. In March, the Guilford County Board of Education approved a revised teacher incentive pay plan to pay for as much as 40 percent of the annual $4.4 million cost of the Mission Possible program. The proposed strategic compensation plan would replace Mission Possible and two other programs in August 2011 to help the district recruit and retain teachers for hard to staff positions.

Timetable: The new strategic compensation plan would go into effect in August 2011. Bonuses: The maximum award for math teachers would go up to $16,500, from $14,000, for those teaching tested subjects. Those at the next highest level would be third- to fifth-grade teachers who could get a maximum bonus of $8,000, up from $6,500. Custodians and bus drivers could get a bonus of as much as $750.

The Teacher Incentive Fund III grant would provide funding over five years for teachers and administrators in the 10 schools. Montlieu Math and Science Academy, a High Point elementary school, is one of the schools. Mission Possible pays teachers and principals in 20 schools bonuses and higher salaries for working in schools where turn-

over is a problem and for teaching state-tested courses. Grants allow 10 other schools to participate. Three High Point elementary schools are in the Mission Possible program – Kirkman Park, Oak Hill and Parkview – and four middle and high schools are included – Ferndale and Welborn Middle Schools, T.W. Andrews and High Point Central High Schools. Unlike Mission Possible schools, all employees at target schools, including cafeteria workers and custodians, would earn bonuses. Last month, the board declined to vote on the proposed innovation fund grant, which would go to hiring recruiters, improving employee screening and upgrading human resources department software. In other business, the board also will consider an extended-year calendar for Oak Hill Elementary School, which would start school Aug. 11, and a proposed interim 2011 district budget. dnivens@hpe.com | 888-3626

Police: Man run over by own vehicle ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

DAVIDSON COUNTY – A 38-year-old New York man was struck and killed Tuesday morning when his vehicle rolled over him along Interstate 85 Business Loop, according to Lexington Police. At 4:58 a.m., Lexington police received a call of a traffic crash at Interstate

85 Business Loop North and the city limits. Police said the crash was originally reported as a hit-and-run, but the investigation revealed the operator died as a result of being run over by his own vehicle. According to police, Hai Bin Hu, of Flushing, N.Y., was operating his 2000 Ford box truck and pulled off to the side of

the highway for a break. Police said Hu got out of the truck and failed to place the truck in park, causing the truck to roll forward over Hu. WXII-12 News reported that Hu and his wife were in town to visit the Lexington Flea Market. The woman was able to bring the truck to a stop, police said, and wasn’t injured.

“It does happen. It doesn’t happen that often, but it’s not unusual for us to have folks that are run over by their own vehicle in a haste to get it stopped,” Maj. Tad Kepley told the television station. Police said there was a language barrier that made the investigation into the incident more difficult, WXII12 News reported.

ARCHDALE – The Archdale City Council on Tuesday night voted unanimously to put tighter restrictions on future businesses that have video poker and other electronic gaming operations. City officials decided to take a look at putting tighter restrictions on Archdale’s zoning ordinance concerning electronic gaming operations because those businesses have grown quickly as a popular land use across the state. The text amendments limit the hours of operation and where future businesses can locate. Archdale’s zoning ordinance defines electronic gaming operations as businesses where people can utilize electronic machines to conduct games of chance, including sweepstakes, where cash, merchandise or other items of value are redeemed and distributed. Electronic gaming operations may include internet cafes, internet sweepstakes and electronic gaming machines/operations. Under the approved changes, existing electronic gaming operations will be grandfathered. Future operations will be allowed to operate as special-use in the highway and general business zoning districts with special requirements. They

will be allowed to operate from 8 a.m. to midnight, have a maximum number of 20 terminals and one parking space per terminal. They also must not operate within 200 feet of residentially zoned property or 500 feet from any religious or child care facility, school, park or another electronic gaming operation. In other business, the City Council approved its 2010-11 fiscal year budget, which included an increase to utility rates. The budget increases the minimum monthly charge for customers who use more than 2,000 gallons of water from $12.50 to $13.25 and the minimum monthly sewer charge from $15 to $16. The utility rate increase was challenged by one resident during the public comment time. Archdale resident William Gay asked the City Council if it would not increase the utility rates because Randolph County this week increased the property tax rate by 3.1 cents. City Manager Jerry Yarborough told Gay that staff had looked at ways to minimize increases in the budget and that the hike in utility rates is needed to “cover escalating costs of operating water and sewer.” dignasiak@hpe.com | 888-3657

drinking coffee at Starbuck’s on N. Main Street. “It’s hardly different than the lottery, so they should just make rules on how and where they’re used.” William Thevaos, president of the Entertainment Group of North Carolina, said the ban would cost nearly 10,000 jobs and hurt the state’s economy. Several cities, including Archdale, have considered and passed ordinances re-

stricting electronic gaming operations. “For two years the EGNC has been advocating for the regulation and taxation of video gaming across the state,” Thevaos said. “It would provide more than $500 million a year in revenue according to recent figures released by the NC Lottery.” Lena McEachrin, 57, of Greensboro, also shopping on N. Main Street, said she

believes the government is thinking of its reputation. “The state wants to earn money, but not in a way that isn’t virtuous,” McEachrin said. “I understand it, but everyone has different virtues and they should be able to spend their money as they please.” Tiffany Andrews, 30, of High Point, said she believes banning sweepstakes is a bad idea.

“I don’t see the sweepstakes doing any harm, so I wonder why the government really wants to ban it,” said Andrews, who also was at Starbuck’s. “I think because the state doesn’t directly benefit, they don’t want them. They should either leave it alone or regulate it, tax it.” The Associated Press contributed to this story. editor@hpe.com | 888-3537

NEW YORK (AP) – New York City’s famous Naked Cowboy wants a bikini-clad woman who calls herself The Naked Cowgirl to stop ripping off his trademark. The Times Square cowboy, whose real name is Robert Burck, is known for strumming his guitar wearing only briefs and a

cowboy hat. He has sent a cease-and-desist letter to Sandy Kane, who wears a red, white and blue cowboy hat and matching bikini. Burck says if Kane’s going to make money by posing for photos, he wants her to sign a “Naked Cowboy Franchise Agreement.” Most of his

licensed franchisees are required to pay $5,000 a year or $500 a month and go through a screening process. Kane, who is in her 50s, is a former stripper who’s now a fixture of the city comedy scene. Her real name is Sandra Brodsky. She says she doesn’t owe Burck anything.

Curb highway deaths related to cell phone use Why are our legislators reactionary? In my opinion, any responsible, reasonably intelligent person can recognize our inability to multi-task while operating a 4,000-pound vehicle, oftentimes at high speed. Yet, it seems our legislators only respond to crisis or catastrophic events. Frankly, I’m tired of hearing the cliche “... so this will never happen again.” When a mine caves in and miners are killed, we hear that safety regulations have been breached or ignored, but we will fix it ... so this will never happen again. When a natural disaster occurs and response is less than adequate, legislators blame the system or administration and vow to fix things ... so this will never happen again. When a financial meltdown occurs, Congress points the finger at everyone, no one assumes responsibility, commissions are appointed to investigate and our tax dollars are spent by the billions ... so this will never happen again. Then an offshore oil well blows up killing 11 people and creating one of the largest environmental disasters in history, we find negligence, complicity and indifference before and after the fact and promise action ... so this will never happen again. It is a fact that, over the last six years, accidents caused by cell phone usage while driving has killed more people than the Iraq and Afghanistan wars combined. Statistically, such accidents are equivalent to drunken driving (28

percent) in traffic-related deaths. Is this not enough proof that our legislators should address this problem now, before more lives are lost, dreams shattered and families devastate. It is obvious that the public cannot voluntarily control its insatiable appetite for self-indulgent cell phone usage. It is well past the time for action by our legislators to control this addiction. Please write your congressmen and encourage them to act. DICK ANGEL Thomasville

Taco Bell ad campaign sends irresponsible message Let’s applaud Taco Bell on its Foundation for Teens which helps students graduate high school.

Many share their vision in helping students grow to be “caring, educated, and productive adults.” Beware: during this campaign, Taco Bell is also advertising its Classic Margarita and Strawberry Margarita Frutista Freeze drinks. Although they are alcohol-free, selling them during graduation and summertime when teens are at an increased risk of underage drinking is simply irresponsible. Taco Bell is a family-friendly restaurant yet the promotion of an alcohol-like drink is not youth friendly, especially when marketed in the drive-through. Alcohol has been linked to car wrecks, violence, academic problems and crime – the same issues Taco Bell fights against in the company’s Foundation for Teens program. Selling these alcohol-like beverages in a fast food restaurant like Taco Bell gives youth the impres-

sion that margaritas are a popular adult beverage and should be readily available. Marketing the margarita-flavored drinks as “refreshing” and “smooth” glamorizes and normalizes alcohol to youth. According to its website, 150 million people see a Taco Bell commercial a week. With that kind of influence, shouldn’t we hold them accountable by asking for the removal of these two drinks from their menu? Let’s help Taco Bell send a clear message to our children. Alcohol is not safe or legal for anyone under the age of 21. Together we can fight for our youth and their future. TRACY ROCHE Lexington

Job creation remains weak as local employers worry about the direction of the U.S. economy, the impact here from financial troubles in Europe, the effect that greater productivity by the work force is having on job creation and what the taxing structure will look like in 2011-2014. The hole from which North Carolina is trying to climb is deep – unemployment has increased 119 percent since late 2007 and an analyst for the N.C. Justice Center’s Budget and Tax Center indicates that more than a whopping 400,000 jobs will need to be created to recover from losses that averaged 22,500 a month during the recession. In addition, the series noted that the 6th Congressional District, which includes parts of High Point and Davidson County and all of Randolph County, ranks 13th – with a net job loss of 10,700 between 2001-08 – among 435 congressional districts nationwide with the highest losses tied to offshoring in China. Indicators show the economy – across the nation, in North Carolina and, yes, even here in the Piedmont – gradually is improving. And, there’s the rub, especially for those who have been out of work the longest. It will take another year or more to increase the number of “new” jobs sufficiently for all of us to recognize the recession is over. Hang on!

OUR MISSION

The High Point Enterprise is committed to this community ... and always will serve it by being an intensely local newspaper of excellent quality every day.

hen Adolf Hitler was building up the Nazi movement in the 1920s, leading up to his taking power in the 1930s, he deliberately sought to activate people who did not normally pay much attention to politics. Such people were a valuable addition to his political base, since they were particularly susceptible to Hitler’s rhetoric and had far less basis for questioning his assumptions or his conclusions. “Useful idiots” was the term supposedly coined by V.I. Lenin to describe similarly unthinking supporters of his dictatorship in the Soviet Union. Put differently, a democracy needs informed citizens if it is to thrive, or ultimately even survive. In our times, American democracy is being dismantled, piece by piece, before our very eyes by the current administration in Washington, and few people seem to be concerned about it. The president’s poll numbers are going down because increasing numbers of people disagree with particular policies of his, but the damage being done to the fundamental structure of this nation goes far beyond particular counterproductive policies. Just where in the Constitution of the United States does it say that a president has the authority to extract vast sums of money from a private enterprise and distribute it as he sees fit to whomever he deems worthy of compensation? Nowhere. And yet that is precisely what is happening with a $20 billion fund to be provided by BP to compensate people harmed by their oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. Many among the public and in the media may think that the issue is simply whether BP’s oil spill has damaged many people, who ought to be compensated. But our government is supposed to be “a government of laws and not of men.” If our laws and our institutions determine that BP ought to pay $20 billion – or $50 billion or $100 billion – then so be it. But the Constitution says that private property is not to be confiscated by the government without “due process of law.” Technically, it has not been confiscated by Barack Obama, but that is a distinction without a difference. With vastly expanded powers of government available at the discretion of politicians and bureaucrats, private individuals and organizations can be forced into accepting the imposition of powers that were never granted to the government by the Constitution. If you believe that the end justifies the means, then you don’t believe in constitutional govern-

ment. And, without constitutional government, freedom cannot endure. There will always be a “crisis” – which, as the president’s chief of staff has said, cannot be allowed to “go to waste” as an opportunity to expand the government’s power. OPINION That power will of course not be confined to BP or to the Thomas particular period of crisis that Sowell gave rise to the use of that power, ■■■ much less to the particular issues. When Franklin D. Roosevelt arbitrarily took the United States off the gold standard, he cited a law passed during the First World War to prevent trading with the country’s wartime enemies. But there was no war when FDR ended the gold standard’s restrictions on the printing of money. At about the same time, during the worldwide Great Depression, the German Reichstag passed a law “for the relief of the German people.” That law gave Hitler dictatorial powers that were used for things going far beyond the relief of the German people – indeed, powers that ultimately brought a rain of destruction

Our government is supposed to be ‘a government of laws and not of men.’ down on the German people and on others. If the agreement with BP was an isolated event, perhaps we might hope that it would not be a precedent. But there is nothing isolated about it. The man appointed by President Obama to dispense BP’s money as the administration sees fit, to whomever it sees fit, is only the latest in a long line of presidentially appointed “czars” controlling different parts of the economy, without even having to be confirmed by the Senate, as Cabinet members are. Those who cannot see beyond the immediate events to the issues of arbitrary power – versus the rule of law and the preservation of freedom – are the “useful idiots” of our time. But useful to whom?

hen was the last time you blew a bubble, played hopscotch or made a wish on a dandelion? As I look forward to my last few months as a child living in my parents’ house, I can’t help but incline myself to think a little like Peter Pan: I wish I never had to grow up. Who could blame me for this wishful thinking with the summer activities I have lined up? From babysitter to church camp counselor to Bible school volunteer, it’s a wonder I haven’t forgotten my age. Every day brings me a new simple pleasure: I paint my nails silly colors, play with action figures, pick out the most chocolate ice cream available and scream songs at the top of my lungs … my whole summer seems to be one long reminiscence of my childhood. Yet, as always, my emotions have prompted me to reflect on my experiences in a (mostly) adult manner. Is it wrong for me, a legal adult (though I hardly feel like one), to cherish those summer moments as much as the children I am looking after? The moments when I have seen other “grown-ups” fully embrace their inner-child, I have realized that I’m not the only one who finds complete contentment in that sense of utter abandon. “Toy Story 3” may very well be this summer’s highest-grossing film; new ice cream stores are finding their place in High Point; other camp counselors return every year, just as excited as I am to experience another week with middle school students. So what magical quality is it that summer shares with childhood which makes both associated with sheer joy and blissful memories? Simplicity. Summer

Blake Most fascinating■■■ ly, they dare us to cast aside negative feelings. The true magic is the way that our doubts, worries and fears seem of minuscule importance when learning to whistle or do cartwheels.

It forces you to discover the happiness within and giggle until you forget any reason that you ever had to cry. Ironically, it takes maturity to relinquish control and let pure bliss take over.

Maybe adulthood simply means we’ve learned to embrace the simple sources of happiness that will always set us in a tizzy.

Crews try to keep fire from Flagstaff

Gen. McChrystal at risk of losing his job

FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. – Massive clouds of smoke choked Flagstaff on Tuesday as firefighters battled to keep a nearly 19-square-mile wildfire from heading toward the mountain town of about 60,000 people. The work shifted after firefighters secured the area closest to homes, several hundred of which remained under evacuation orders, said fire spokeswoman Erin Phelps.

Storms pelt Midwest, cause flooding AVON, Ind. – Central Indiana residents fled flooded neighborhoods Tuesday, while those in a small town in Wisconsin tried to figure out why a warning siren failed to alert them before a tornado destroyed 25 homes there. The storms that pelted the Midwest weakened as they moved east Tuesday, but the National Weather Service said another wave was moving into Iowa, Illinois and Indiana.

Mexico asks court to reject immigration law PHOENIX – Mexico on Tuesday asked a federal court in Arizona to declare the state’s new immigration law unconstitutional, arguing that the country’s own interests and its citizens’ rights are at stake. Lawyers for Mexico on Tuesday submitted a legal brief in support of one of five lawsuits challenging the law. The law will take effect July 29 unless implementation is blocked by a court. ENTERPRISE NEWS SERVICE REPORTS

This image provided Tuesday by Rolling Stone shows a layout from the magazine’s latest issue with a photo of Gen. Stanley A. McChrystal on board a C-130 aircraft over Afghanistan. McChrystal was fighting for his job Tuesday after his extraordinary complaints about President Barack Obama and his colleagues in the article.

WASHINGTON (AP) – President Barack Obama rebuked his Afghanistan war commander for “poor judgment” Tuesday and considered whether to fire him in the most extraordinary airing of militarycivilian tensions since Harry Truman stripped Gen. Douglas MacArthur of his command a half century ago. The White House summoned Gen. Stanley McChrystal to Washington to explain disparaging comments about his commander in chief and Obama’s top aides. The meeting set for today is a last-ditch moment for the general once considered the war’s brightest hope. Two military officials told The Associated Press that McChrystal would

arrive prepared to hand in his resignation. If not insubordination, the remarks in a forthcoming Rolling Stone magazine article were at least an indirect challenge to civilian management of the war in Washington by its top military commander. “I think it’s clear that the article in which he and his team appeared showed a poor – showed poor judgment,” the president said, surrounded by members of his Cabinet at the close of their meeting. In the article, McChrystal did not criticize Obama directly but called the period last fall when Obama was deciding whether to approve more troops “painful” and said the president was handing him an “unsellable” position.

Federal judge lifts offshore drilling ban NEW ORLEANS (AP) – A federal judge struck down the Obama administration’s six-month ban on deepwater oil drilling in the Gulf of Mexico as rash and heavy-handed Tuesday, saying the government simply assumed that because one rig exploded, the others pose an imminent danger, too. The White House promised an immediate appeal. The Interior Department had imposed the moratorium last month in the wake of the BP disaster, halting approval of any new permits for deepwater projects and suspending drilling on 33 exploratory wells. White House spokesman Robert Gibbs said President Barack Obama believes that until inves-

tigations can determine why the spill happened, continued deepwater drilling exposes workers and the environment to “a danger that the president does not believe we can afford.” Several companies that ferry people and supplies and provide other services to offshore rigs argued that the moratorium was arbitrarily imposed after the April 20 explosion. U.S. District Judge Martin Feldman, who was appointed by President Ronald Reagan and has owned stock in a number of petroleum-related companies, sided with the plaintiffs. “If some drilling equipment parts are flawed, is it rational to say all are?” he asked.

RANDOLPH COUNTY – Four people face charges after Randolph County sheriff’s deputies uncovered thousands of allegedly counterfeit goods for sale at a local flea market. Patrol deputies responded to a 911 call on June 12 at the 311 Flea Market in Sophia in reference to a possible fraud being perpetrated there. When the officers arrived, they found four vendors who were selling items that investigators later determined to be fake. The sheriff’s Criminal Investigations Division responded to the flea market to assist the deputies in the seizure of the items. Deputies and investigators seized 4,088 counterfeit CDs, 3,328 counterfeit/pirated DVDs, 96 pair of counterfeit Nike shoes and 25 counterfeit Ralph Lauren Polo shirts, according to the sheriff’s office. The total street value of the goods, if they were legitimate, would have been $139,480, authorities said. Several of the pirated DVDs were of movies that were still playing in theaters and had not been released to DVD, deputies said. The sheriff’s office listed the following charges against the suspects: • Omar Mohamed Osman of Greensboro, one count of felony criminal use of counterfeit trademark, one misdemeanor count of criminal use of counterfeit trademark. • Charles Ray Singleton of Ramseur, 17 counts of felony possession of recorded devices that don’t show the true name and address of the manufacturer. • Adam David Greenberger of Greensboro, 12 counts of felony possession of recorded devices that don’t show the true name and address of the manufacturer. • Juan Manuel Isidro-Sanchez of Efland, 51 counts of felony possession of recorded devices that don’t show the true name and address of the manufacturer. The sheriff’s office was assisted in the case by representatives of the North Carolina Secretary of State’s Office, the motion picture industry, Nike and the recording industry. pkimbrough@hpe.com | 888-3531

Leader of the class Science teacher earns top honor in Thomasville

BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

THOMASVILLE – Ira Cumpton Jr. says he was “honored” and “surprised” to find out earlier this month that he has been named the Thomasville City Schools 2010-11 Teacher of the Year. “It’s a great honor when your colleagues recognize you for any type of honor,” said Cumpton, a Thomasville Middle School science teacher. “It’s humbling, but it is a great honor to be named Teacher of the Year in a profession that I really love.” Cumpton got his start in education 20 years ago with Thomasville City Schools. He decided to teach because he enjoys learning and sharing his knowledge with other people. “I had a teacher in the third grade who did all kinds of activities and made school really fun and enjoyable,” he said. “Education is always an important part of life and as a way to advance and get ahead in life.

RALEIGH (AP) – Lawmakers and animal welfare activists are trying to regain momentum on a bill that would prevent commercial breeders in North Carolina from keeping dogs in unsanitary living conditions. Democratic Sen. Don Davis of Greene County joined the activists at a news conference on Tuesday to comment on the bill which the House finance committee will discuss this week. The Senate approved the bill last year, but it has laid dormant in a legislative committee since then. The bill requires breeders with at least 15 female dogs that are capable of giving birth and 30 puppies to be registered and meet care standards such as providing adequate daily exercise and housing. The bill was introduced after the seizure of almost 300 dogs in February 2009 from what authorities say was a puppy mill in Wayne County.

RALEIGH (AP) – Leaders in small North Carolina towns worried they couldn’t have July 4 fireworks displays this year due to new safety training requirements could get a reprieve in legislation overwhelmingly approved by the House. The House agreed 112-1 on Tuesday on a bill allowing the state fire marshal to issue temporary licenses to veteran fireworks display operators who haven’t yet met the new standards. The Legislature approved the tougher requirements last year after an Independence Day blast on Ocracoke Island that killed four fireworks handlers.

Public financing deters unity on NC ethics package RALEIGH (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Senate Democrats rolled out a wide-ranging North Carolina ethics, public records and government reform package Tuesday, but a provision that would expand voluntary public financing in some election campaigns prevented the measure from getting initial bipartisan support. The bill approved by a judiciary panel would allow so-called â&#x20AC;&#x153;voter-ownedâ&#x20AC;? elections to fill the offices of five additional members of the Council of State: the attorney general, treasurer, secretary of state and commissioners of agriculture and labor. The package also would

make it a felony to give at least $10,000 in illegal campaign contributions in a single election, expand the number of government workers subject to ethics rules and require ex-lawmakers and elected officials to wait longer â&#x20AC;&#x201C; one year after leaving office instead the current six months â&#x20AC;&#x201D; before they can lobby state government. The legislation follows a year of investigations surrounding former Democratic Gov. Mike Easley and his campaign that the billâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s supporters say left an ethical taint in government. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hard to legislate morality, but we can try to legislate behavior,â&#x20AC;? said Sen.

Steve Goss, D-Watauga, who helped write the bill, which could go to the Senate floor later this week. It would still have to be considered by the House. North Carolina already allows some publicly funded elections. Starting with the 2008 election, candidates for state auditor, insurance commissioner and superintendent of public instruction could accept fundraising restrictions in exchange for public funds to run their campaigns. A similar program for state Court of Appeals and Supreme Court candidates began in 2004. Republicans donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like the public financing con-

FORT BRAGG (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; A contractor working at a live fire drill was killed and two people were wounded in a training accident on Tuesday at Fort Bragg, military officials said. Authorities said in a statement that a range control contractor died at Womack Army Medical Center from a gunshot wound. A second range control contractor was shot and transported by air

to UNC Hospitals in Chapel Hill, where he is listed in critical condition. The two contractors were identified as employees of Echota Technologies Corp., which is located in Tennessee. A third person was identified a soldier who is a student at the U.S. Army John F. Kennedy Special Warfare Center and School. Thomas said that soldier was grazed in the arm and

cept, which has largely been pushed through the Legislature by Democrats over the years. The latest proposal is worse, said Sen. Pete Brunstetter, R-Forsyth, because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been inserted in a broader bill that most GOP senators otherwise endorse. Brunstetter tried unsuccessfully to pass an amendment to delete the public financing provision. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Overall itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a good bill,â&#x20AC;? Brunstetter said, but â&#x20AC;&#x153;to drop it in to what is supposed to be the bipartisan ethics reform bill creates a partisan issue where we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need it and it takes our eyes off of fundamental ethics reform.â&#x20AC;?

Tuesday the new $4.5 million building and elevator opened earlier this month. The original shop at the top of the mountain was demolished in 2008 because it had fallen into disrepair. Marketing director Catherine Morton says a 12-year-old boy from Ashe County was the

first person to use the elevator before he crossed the Mile High Swinging Bridge. Luke Wilcox suffers from cerebral palsy and crossed the bridge in his wheelchair. North Carolina bought the 2,600-acre Grandfather Mountain park from the Morton family last year for $12 million.

I used graphic terms and went into great detail. Eric found it extremely exciting, and we both benefited from it. Recently, Eric mentioned how great it would be if I contacted one of my past lovers to push the envelope of passion even further. I agreed. My dinner date with the old flame was actually quite fun, with talk of the past. Eric thrilled at my description of the â&#x20AC;&#x153;date.â&#x20AC;? His suggestion that I go out with my old beau and â&#x20AC;&#x153;enjoy myselfâ&#x20AC;? as I had when I was single, however, left me hurt and somewhat uncomfortable. Eric hinted that a new â&#x20AC;&#x153;storyâ&#x20AC;? would take things to another level. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s completely OK with it, not at all jealous. I said I wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sure, but Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d consider it.

Desensitization helps allergy

ear Dr. Donohue: Please discuss the management of seasonal allergies. Should I always take an antihistamine? Are some better than others? If I take one and two hours later I’m sneezing my head off, can I conclude that that one doesn’t work for me? Should I use eyedrops and nasal sprays along with an antihistamine? I notice my chin will start to itch before I have an attack. What do you make of that? – M.C.

BLONDIE

If your allergies are really bad, you ought to consider immunotherapy, desensitization. Treatment has to begin before the allergy season sets in. An allergist tests you for suspected allergens (provokers), has a serum made incorporating those allergens and then begins the desensitization process. You start with a highly diluted shot of the allergen solution and gradually progress to stronger concentrations. You’re building a tolerance. Your need for medicines should be greatly reduce or eliminated. If your allergies are not so bad, then you can rely on medicines. Start with an antihistamine. Which one is best for you is something you can determine only through trial and error. Allegra (a prescription medicine) and the nonprescription Zyrtec, Claritin and Tavist are popular choices. An effective antihistamine works until the next dose is scheduled, not for just two hours. Rinsing your nose with a saltwater solution puts

a stop to nasal symptoms. Dissolve half a teaspoon of salt and a pinch of baking soda HEALTH in a cup of boiling Dr. Paul water. Let Donohue the water ■■■ cool. Gently flush each nostril with an irrigating syringe, found in all drugstores. Do this twice a day. If that doesn’t get the job done, then try nasal sprays such as Flonase or Nasonex. If the antihistamine doesn’t stop eye itching, then you need eyedrops. I don’t know what to make of the itchy chin.

where sperm is stored. After a prolonged period of sexual abstinence, an obstruction often occurs in the sperm storage receptacle. Resumption of sex brings about bleeding that lasts only a few days. You were checked by two doctors. No serious cause was found. You can safely forget this episode.

Dear Dr. Donohue: I am 72 years old, not married but still have sex. In October 2008, I went without sex until May 2009. My ejaculate had blood in it. My doctor said I must have an infection and put me on antibiotics. I saw a urologist, and he told me to continue with the pills. The next ejaculate had less blood. As time passed, there was no blood. I got it into my head that the blood happened because I wasn’t having sex. Is that true? – J.W.

Back discs are oval affairs that lie between adjacent backbones. They absorb shock and keep the back limber. Each disc has a tough outer rim and a soft, jellylike core. When the outer rim develops even a tiny crack, the inner core protrudes through it. That’s a ruptured (or herniated or slipped) disc. If it presses on a spinal nerve, pain results. For 90 percent of people with this condition, the pain subsides in a month or so. Some have a ruptured disc but have no pain. The protruding, jellylike core dries out. The problem goes away. If pain persists, then a person can think about surgical correction. People without pain do not need surgery. The likelihood of your losing bowel or bladder control is close to zero.

Blood in the seminal fluid scares the man and his partner. It’s called hematospermia (HE-muhtoe-SPUR-me-uh), and it’s relatively common. It can come from an infection, a tumor or an inflammation of the genital tract. Most often, it’s due to harmless breaking of tiny vessels in the place

Dear Dr. Donohue: I have a ruptured disc in my lower back. It took five shots to stop the pain. That was in 2006. My back hasn’t hurt since. I was told not to wait too long to get the disc fixed because I might lose control of my bladder and bowels. What do you say are the odds of this happening? – J.W.

Berry, berry good Simple summer fruit tart has plenty of flair BY ALISON LADMAN FOR THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ike the classic French fresh fruit tarts you see in fancy pastry shops, this American berry tart has serious panache. But we want you to enjoy your July Fourth celebration, so we came up with a simpler approach. We’ve replaced the pastry cream filling with a sweetened cream cheese, and used a simple press-in crust. And if you can’t be bothered to arrange your berries neatly, you can just pile them on top. Serve topped with a dollop of whipped cream and you have the perfect, impressive summertime dessert.

Fresh Summer Berry Tart Start to finish: 1 hour (25 minutes active) Servings: 8 For the crust: 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 3/4 cup granulated sugar 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 stick cold unsalted butter, cut up 2 tablespoons cold water For the filling: Two 8-ounce packages cream cheese, softened 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 tablespoon lemon juice 1/2 cup powdered sugar Fresh berries (such as raspberries, strawberries, blackberries and blueberries) Heat the oven to 375 degrees. Coat a 9-inch removablebottom tart pan with baking spray. In a food processor, pulse together the flour, sugar and salt. Add the butter, then pulse together, adding cold water as needed, until a meal forms that sticks together easily when you squeeze it. Press the mixture into the tart pan, making sure to press the dough up the sides. Dock the bottom of the crust with a fork. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the edges just start to turn golden and the center is slightly firm to the touch. Cool on a wire rack. Once the crust has cooled, make the filling. In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat together the cream cheese, vanilla, lemon juice and powdered sugar. Spread the filling evenly in the shell. Top with berries and serve.

Fourth of July deserves a big dessert such as this Fresh Summer Berry Tart.

Pie is perfect for celebrating healthy eating – and the 4th Pinch of salt 1 store-bought, refrigerated pie crust 1 cup blueberries 1 cup peeled, sliced peaches

BY JIM ROMANOFF FOR THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ere’s a real reason to celebrate – pies don’t have to be banned from a healthy

diet. The problem with many pies is that they are loaded with excess fat and sugar. The crust usually is the biggest culprit, with up to 220 calories and 15 grams of fat per serving. But the fillings can be trouble as well. Even fruit fillings, which seem healthy enough on the surface, can be hiding more sugar than you think, and sometimes are laced with butter. Rather than give up your favorite pie, you could take the road of moderation and just enjoy a tiny slice. The other strategy for keeping pie in your diet is to make one you can feel good about indulging in. A good place to start is getting rid of the top crust, which immediately lops off a good chunk of fat and calories. As for the filling, fruit is the right idea, just try to limit the sugar. Consider sweetening fillings with fruit juice concentrates or even purees, such as applesauce or apple butter. Cream and custard pies, which often are made with full-fat dairy thickened with

Blueberry-Peach Custard Pie foregoes a top crust where much of the fat hides while using skim milk and Greek-style yogurt for the custard filling. egg yolks, usually can be made lighter with low-fat milk using cornstarch or tapioca as a thickener. This single-crust blueberrypeach custard pie uses several of these techniques to produce a more virtuous slice. Several cups of fresh fruit are baked into a light custard made with only two whole eggs, skim milk and nonfat Greek-style yogurt, which adds body and a hint of tanginess that balances the natural sweetness of the peaches and blueberries.

Blueberry-Peach Custard Pie Start to finish: 3 hours (15 minutes active) Servings: 10 1 cup sugar 3/4 cup skim milk 3/4 cup (6 ounces) nonfat plain Greek-style yogurt 2 large eggs 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour 2 teaspoons cornstarch 1/4 teaspoon almond extract

YOUR COMMUNITY. YOUR NEWSPAPER.

Position a rack in lower third of the oven. Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Coat a 9-inch pie pan with cooking spray. To make the filling, in a medium bowl, combine the sugar, milk, yogurt, eggs, flour, cornstarch, almond extract and salt. Whisk until smooth. Set aside. On a lightly floured surface, roll a sheet of pie crust into a 12-inch circle. Place the crust in the pie pan and trim so it overhangs evenly by about 1 inch. Fold the edges under and crimp or flute the edge with your fingers or a fork. Place the pie pan on a baking sheet. Arrange peaches in the bottom of the crust and top with the blueberries in an even layer. Pour the filling on top (the fruit will float but this won’t affect the final results). Bake for 25 minutes. After the pie has baked for 25 minutes and the filling is beginning to set, remove from oven and cover the edges of the crust with foil to help prevent over browning. Reduce heat to 350 degrees and return the pie to oven. Bake until a knife inserted at the center of the pie comes out clean, another 20 to 25 minutes (the pie may puff up quite a bit but will settle during cooling). Let cool for 1 1/2 hours. Serve warm or chilled.

Wednesday, June 23, 2010 CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Jason Mraz, 33; Emmanuelle Vaugier, 34; Selma Blair, 38; Frances McDormand, 53 Happy Birthday: Make professional changes that will help you feel secure about your future. Use your mental attributes and you will find a place that suits you far better. You have to be able to go at your own speed to be successful. Finding your niche and stabilizing your life is in reach and where you should be putting your efforts. Your numbers are 4, 10, 18, 25, 32, 34, 41 ARIES (March 21-April 19): Love is on the rise but you don’t have to spend money to win someone’s affection. Emotional manipulation will come into play. Greater professional opportunities will be given if you push for the position you want. ★★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Be very clear about what you want and how you see things unfolding. Leading someone on, even unintentionally, will cause problems. A trip or seminar will help you make a decision that you’ve been unable to make in the past. ★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Making decisions based on emotions will cost you financially. Love is in the stars. Leave room late in the day to do something with your lover or take part in an event that caters to singles, if you are unattached. ★★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): You can make personal changes as long as they aren’t over-budget. Uncertainty regarding a family member will be difficult to address. Try listening for now and you will have a much better idea how to handle matters. ★★★★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Travel, learning and greater involvement with friends, relatives and neighbors will be informative. Gambling or spending your money foolishly or being overtly generous to impress someone must be avoided. ★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Rethink your strategy if someone questions a financial deal you are considering. You may have missed a vital piece of information. An emotional concern can be dealt with if you act quickly and have a solution that is fair to everyone. ★★★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You’ll get the help you need but don’t take advantage of the person offering you assistance. Be honest about what has happened. Don’t let a love relationship jeopardize your job, a friendship or your emotional well-being. ★★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Getting in touch with people having similar interests or concerns will pay off personally and professionally. Your insight and creativity will attract an offer from someone in a position to help you present your ideas. Don’t let a love relationship stand in your way. ★★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): An emotional involvement can evolve into something much greater if you spend one-on-one time with the person you love. Don’t limit the possibilities by keeping your thoughts and feelings a secret. ★★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Take time to have a little fun. Don’t neglect the people you are close to personally and emotionally or you may be left out of something that you might enjoy taking part in. Push hard to resolve a pending legal problem. ★★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Someone from your past may try to force you into a situation you’ve been in before. Stand up to this person so you don’t repeat the mistake. Love is in the stars but you must choose your partner wisely. ★★★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Focus on your family and friends and what will help make your home more inviting. Money can be made if you look at the services or skills you have to offer. Market what you can do and you can make some extra cash. ★★★★★

TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES

In a 10-day North American Championships, there are sure to be some bizarre results. At the Spring NAC, South’s bid of 1NT can be explained if in his system a two-level response would have forced to game. South apparently intended his 3NT as “Unusual,” asking North to bid a minor suit, but North understandably didn’t catch on. Poor West led the king and ace of hearts, not dreaming that South had bid 3NT with a singleton. West next led a low heart, and East took the ten, cashed the ace of clubs and led another club.

HIGH HEART South won and ran five diamonds. On the last diamond, West had to keep a high heart – dummy still had a heart – and could retain only two spades. Dummy threw the heart, and East, who had to save the queen of clubs, also came down to two spades. So declarer took the AK of spades and won the 13th trick with the nine. Making three! At Trick Five, East could and should have shifted to a spade, ruining the communication for South’s double squeeze.

DAILY QUESTION You hold: S A K 9 5 2 H 9 8 7 3 D K 7 3 C 9. Your partner opens one diamond, you respond one spade and he bids two clubs. What do you say? ANSWER: Your hand is worth a forward-going move but isn’t worth forcing to game. To bid two hearts – unlimited in strength and forcing – would be questionable. Jump to three diamonds if in your partnership style that bid is invitational. If it’s forcing, underbid with two diamonds or two spades or risk two hearts or 2NT. North dealer Both sides vulnerable

---

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

Senior Am HOF welcomes icon

ther commitments usually keep Brad Burris from playing in the National Senior Amateur Hall of Fame tournament, even though the event is contested on his home course. This year, Burris not only will play in the prestigious tourney at High Point Country Club’s Willow Creek course, he’ll give the introduction at tonight’s Hall of Fame banquet. It’s likely that the only thing to top the next three days of golf will be the reception honoring Fred Ridley as this year’s Hall of Fame inductee. “Fred and I have known each other since 1975. It’s special for me to have Fred come in and spend some time with us,” Burris said. “He’s been such a visible person in golf. I think he’ll give a great perspective to everyone in attendance.” Burris and Ridley met during a practice round for the North & South Amateur in Pinehurst 35 years ago, shortly after Ridley graduated from the University of Florida. He played for a Gators’ golf team that included Gary Koch and Andy Bean. Ridley went on to choose a career in law instead of life on the links, mostly stepping aside from competition in the 1980s after playing in 10 U.S. Amateurs, three Masters and helping the U.S. win the 1977 Walker Cup. Ridley remains the last winner of the U.S. Amateur (in 1975) to have remained a career amateur.

Ridley didn’t need to compete to remain active in the sport. He served on the U.S. SPORTS Golf Association’s Steve executive Hanf commit■■■ tee from 1994-2005 and was president of the USGA those last two years. Even after retiring from the USGA, Ridley still performs countless duties for the organization – he was at Pebble Beach last week in advance of the U.S. Open. And speaking of major golf championships, Ridley currently is the chairman of the competition committee for the Masters. “He’s got great credentials,” Burris said. “That’s what it’s about, the camaraderie of the game and all it stands for. The Hall of Fame committee discussed possible candidates and Fred was a slam dunk.” Tonight’s banquet for the golfers and their guests comes after the first round of the tournament, which is free for spectators. Hall of Fame committee chairman Jim Keever said excitement has been building for the 27th annual event, which has a full field of 156 players split into senior (55-plus) and super senior (65-plus) divisions. “You can see some shots

where you’re going, ‘These guys are amateurs?’ It’s amazing to watch them play,” Keever said. “You’ll have your tongue hanging out. You’ll be amazed at what they can do.” Golfers from 26 states and Canada will be vying for the championship, regarded as one of the top senior amateur events in the country. The Golfweek/Titleist senior amateur ranking system allots 1,000 points for this tournament, putting it in the top five in the country. Among the top competitors in town are past champions such as Spencer Sappington, Ron Carter, Ted Smith, Larry Clark and Paul Simson. Chip Lutz, Carter and Corky Nelson currently are 2-3-4 on the Golfweek chart, while Carter is the top-ranked senior in the amateurgolf. com rundown. A local flavor will be headed by the likes of former champ Tommy Langley, plus Mike Bivins, Kim Mansfield, Jim Carmichael, David Millis and Burris. “The course is absolutely perfect,” Keever praised. “(Superintendent) David Johnson and his crew have done an outstanding job. It’s like carpet. I think the players will enjoy the course quite a bit. And (head pro) Jim Brotherton has been doing this for so long – he and his staff run such a good tournament and the players like that, too.” shanf@hpe.com | 888-3526

Tyrus Thomas shoots a free throw shortly after being traded to the Bobcats last spring. The free agent has made it clear that he wants to stay in Charlotte.

Thomas wants to stay with ’Cats CHARLOTTE (AP) – If Tyrus Thomas gets his way, the impending restricted free agent will stay in Charlotte. Thomas said Tuesday that he wants to sign a longterm deal with the Bobcats, who acquired him from Chicago in a trade deadline deal in February. “Most definitely, that’s my goal,” Thomas said by phone from Washington, where he was to receive a public service award. “We’ll see what happens in the next couple of weeks.” General manager Rod Higgins said earlier this month that they’ll likely offer the 6-foot-10 power forward a one-year qualifying offer worth a little over $6 million to make him a restricted free agent. “When we traded for him, he’s a guy that we envisioned going long-term with,” Higgins said. Whether the Bobcats and Thomas can agree to a long-term deal after July 1 is uncertain. But Thomas seemed energized with being paired with demanding coach Larry Brown after ups and downs in Chicago. The No. 4 overall pick in the 2006 draft was suspended twice by the Bulls for conduct detrimental to the team and had been criticized for not reaching his potential. That didn’t deter Brown from pushing for the deal that sent Flip Murray, Acie Law and a future first-round pick to the Bulls. The athletic shot-blocker had 10.1 points and 6.1 rebounds in 25 regular-season games with Charlotte.

HIT AND RUN

---

he United States World Cup soccer team suffered a tough break when a referee’s controversial call overturned a potential game-winning goal against Slovenia on Friday. But that’s in the past. The future is now for Team USA. An American victory today over Algeria clinches a spot in the next round. Period. End of story.

NASCAR on Tuesday suspended former driver Randy LaJoie for failing a drug test, and he said he’s enrolled in a substance-abuse program. LaJoie, who has not raced at any of NASCAR’s top three levels since 2006, said in a statement that he smoked marijuana once in May. “My use of marijuana was an isolated incident following the Coca-Cola 600,” he said. “I plan to follow the recommendations of the substance abuse counselor and suggestions of NASCAR and hope that someday I can prove to NASCAR and all the people with whom I associate that I have taken such steps to see that instances such as this do not reoccur.” Lajoie said he has also been suspended from his role as an analyst with ESPN. LaJoie was tested by NASCAR because he applied for a license to become a spotter for one of Joe Gibbs Racing’s Nationwide teams.

In case of a tie, the U.S. would advance only if England loses to the Slovenes or the English tie and don’t overcome the U.S. advantage in goals, currently 3-1. Let’s hope it doesn’t come to that. I’m sure the U.S. players are still fuming over the call that led to a 2-2 tie against the Slovenes. I would be, too. Still, the Americans control their own des-

tiny – barring more officiating shenanigans. Landon Donovan, Clint Dempsey, Tim Howard and company are no strangers to the World Cup stage. They know what’s at stake and what must be done. I expect Team USA to come out firing against the Algerians.

CHICAGO â&#x20AC;&#x201C; John Danks settled down after a shaky start to outpitch a Tommy Hanson as the Chicago White Sox won their seventh straight game, 9-6 over the Atlanta Braves on Tuesday night. In snapping Atlantaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s five-game winning streak, the White Sox won for the 11th time in 12 games.

Hockey Hall welcomes f irst women it easier for them to be voted in when it established a womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s subcategory this year. Eric Lindros and Joe Nieuwendyk were potential contenders among NHL players in their first year of eligibility, but werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t elected. Granato played on the U.S. womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hockey team for 15 years and led the club to gold at the 1998 Nagano Olympics. Her brother, Tony, played and coached in the NHL. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I dreamed of being in the NHL my entire life, and this certainly makes up for those dreams,â&#x20AC;? Granato said in a statement. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Being amongst the first women to play at college and later at the Olympics, it

certainly was worthwhile being a hockey pioneer.â&#x20AC;? James was a four-time world champion with the Canadian womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s team. She starred in the 1970s and early â&#x20AC;&#x2122;80s in the Central Ontario Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s League. â&#x20AC;&#x153;On behalf of everyone in womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hockey, I am truly honored,â&#x20AC;? the Toronto native said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As a kid I went to the Hall and was in awe of those who had been inducted. I am delighted to be able to join them.â&#x20AC;? Ciccarelli played 19 NHL seasons with five teams, recording 608 goals and 592 assists in 1,232 games. In nine seasons with Minnesota, he led the team in scoring five times.

Hurricanes dealt tough opening schedule RALEIGH (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The Carolina Hurricanes open the 2010-11 season on the European continent, then return to North America for a five-game road trip before seeing home ice. The Hurricanes had previously announced they would open the regular season on Oct. 7 with the first of two games against Minnesota in Finland as part of the 2010 NHL Premiere. But with the release of full NHL schedules Tuesday, the Hurricanesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; trip now includes stops in Ottawa, Vancouver, San Jose, Los Angeles and Phoenix before

their first home game on Oct. 27 against Southeast Division rival Washington. Carolina travels to Stanley Cup champion Chicago on March 4 and ends the season with at home against Tampa Bay on April 9. The Hurricanes also host the NHL All-Star Weekend on Jan. 29-30. Also Tuesday, the Hurricanes agreed to terms for a two-year contract with right wing Jerome Samson. The 22-year-old Samson led Carolinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s American Hockey League affiliate in Albany with 37 goals and made the AHLâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first All-Star team after the season.

U.S. fortunes on the line PRETORIA, South Africa (AP) – One more game, one last chance to make their reputation. When the Americans play Algeria at the World Cup today they’ll either live up to all the hype and earn a spot among the final 16 teams – or fall painfully short of their long-stated goal and lose a watershed opportunity. “We have a great chance to get a win and advance on to the second round,” captain Carlos Bocanegra said Tuesday. “It’s important for us because we had that disappointment in ’06. It’s not really extra motivation, but it’s just in the back of our minds. You work so hard and you train for so long for the World Cup, and it can be over so quickly if you don’t advance.” A victory or possibly a tie would move the United States into the knockout rounds on a high that will set off midday celebrations back home. Replicate the loss to Ghana that knocked the U.S. out in 2006, and it will start a new round of soul-searching that could cost coach Bob Bradley his job – not to mention dampening the

burgeoning enthusiasm for soccer in America. Since returning to the World Cup in 1990 following a 40-year absence, the U.S. has alternated first-round elimination (’90, ’98 and ’06) with a second-round appearance at home in 1994 and a trip to the quarterfinals in South Korea in 2002. This World Cup started with a come-from-behind 1-1 tie against glamorous England. Then the Americans trailed Slovenia by two goals at halftime only to fight back as Landon Donovan and Michael Bradley scored for a 2-2 draw. They appeared to go ahead, but Maurice Edu’s 85th-minute goal was disallowed for reasons referee Koman Coulibaly of Mali didn’t explain. “We’re not going to worry about any calls or anything like that getting us down,” Bocanegra said. “We had a good second half and hopefully we can continue with that momentum and put that into the Algeria game.” The U.S. has never before faced the Desert Foxes, who have yet to score in this tournament following a 1-0 loss to Slovenia

and a 0-0 draw against England. Algeria can advance only with a win, and Les Fennecs coach Rabah Saadane repeatedly used the phrase “God willing” in reference to a victory. “We are in a good mood to make our people back home very happy,” Algeria captain Antar Yahia said. A win would send the U.S. to a second-round matchup this weekend with Germany, Ghana, Serbia or Australia, and another big television audience for American soccer. With France knocked out, and England, Germany, defending champion Italy and Spain all uncertain of reaching the knockout stage, the U.S. could find itself in a fairly wide-open tournament if it advances. Coaches will be paying attention to the EnglandSlovenia game, which will be played simultaneously in Port Elizabeth. If the English lose, the U.S. would advance with a tie. If both the U.S. and England draw, the Americans reach the second round if they maintain their goal advantage over the English, currently 3-1.

France’s Jo-Wilfried Tsonga goes airborne to return a shot during his match against Robert Kendrick of the United States at Wimbledon on Tuesday.

Serena, Nadal win openers WIMBLEDON, England (AP) – Serena Williams finished with an ace and a curtsy, showing she’s ready for the queen and a lot more at Wimbledon. The defending champion won her opening match Tuesday, relying on an overpowering serve to beat 17-year-old Michelle Larcher de Brito of Portugal 6-0, 6-4. Williams won all 27 points on her first serve and hit 15 aces, the last on her final shot. As the crowd applauded her victory, Williams curtsied, mindful Queen Elizabeth II is expected to visit Wimbledon for the first time since 1977 on Thursday. Williams plays her second-round match that day and has been practicing her curtsy. “I want it to be more natural,” she said. “Right now it feels really forced. Seems like I’ve never done a curtsy before, which may be true. But I’m looking forward to nailing it.” The queen may also get to see topranked Rafael Nadal, who advanced by beating Japanese wild card Kei Nishikori 6-2, 6-4, 6-4. It was Nadal’s first match at Wimbledon since he became the 2008 champion; he missed last year’s tournament because of knee tendinitis. “For me it was a very special moment to come back to this, probably the nicest Centre Court in the world,” Nadal said. “I’m enjoying a lot to be back in my favorite tournament.” Neither French Open women’s finalist survived the first round. Roland Garros runner-up Samantha Stosur, ranked a career-high sixth, lost to qualifier Kaia Kanepi 6-4, 6-4. Surprise French Open winner Francesca Schiavone was beaten Monday. “No doubt it’s a quick turnaround,” Stosur said. “The champions of the game can do it back to back. That’s the kind of pedestal that you want to try to look up to and try to get to yourself.” Maria Sharapova, the 2004 Wimble-

Uruguay, Mexico advance THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

RUSTENBURG, South Africa – Uruguay won Group A and Mexico also advanced Tuesday after Luis Suarez scored in the 43rd minute to give the South Americans a 1-0 win at the World Cup. South Africa and France did not advance after the hosts beat the French 2-1. Suarez, Uruguay’s most dangerous striker all day, ran unguarded to the back post and headed in Edinson Cavani’s brilliant cross for his first goal of the tournament. The two countries went into the last group game sharing the lead at four points and needed only a draw to advance. Uruguay will play South Korea on Saturday in Port Elizabeth. Mexico has advanced in every World Cup it qualified for since failing to get out of the first round in 1978.

SOUTH AFRICA 2, FRANCE 1 BLOEMFONTEIN, South Africa – Bongani Khumalo and Katlego Mphela scored first-half goals to lead South Africa over a France team in turmoil. Despite the win, Bafana Bafana became the first host nation to be eliminated in the group stage. Not even a dressing down by French

sports minister Roselyne Bachelot on the eve of the match could inspire Les Bleus. Bachelot called an emergency meeting Monday to tell the players they had let the country down and had one last chance to redeem themselves.

SOUTH KOREA 2, NIGERIA 2 DURBAN, South Africa – South Korea reached the second round from Group B as Lee Jung-soo and Park Chu-young scored. Kalu Uche had given Nigeria the lead in the 12th minute, then Ayegbeni Yakubu netted a 69th-minute penalty kick to draw Nigeria level again – moments after Yakubu missed a wide open net. South Korea reached the World Cup knockout stage away from home for the first time. Nigeria became the second African team to fall out of the first World Cup held on the continent.

ARGENTINA 2, GREECE 0 POLOKWANE, South Africa – Martin Demichelis and Martin Palermo scored second-half goals Tuesday to help Argentina win Group B. Argentina will play Mexico on Sunday in Johannesburg, while Greece was eliminated. Argentina left seven regulars on the bench. Messi was given the captain’s armband for the first time, making him the youngest Argentina captain ever at 22.

Hornets coach wants Paul to stay THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WESTWEGO, La. – Monty Williams would rather not contemplate making his NBA head coaching debut without Chris Paul. So with trade talks intensifying as they often do in the final days before the NBA draft, Williams made it clear Tuesday that he expects his new employers to turn down whatever offers they get for their biggest star. “Chris was the main thing that excited me about this job,” Williams said after a pre-draft workout at the Hornets’ training center. “So many people are begging for a point guard. You’re talking about the best one in the game. I couldn’t envision being here without Chris.” The Hornets have the 11th overall pick in Thursday night’s draft and likely could move up if they decided to deal their three-time All-Star. Meanwhile, those teams which plan to pursue LeBron James in free agency might enhance their chances of success by trading for Paul. Paul and James are close friends who spend a lot of time together in the

offseason and were teammates on the 2008 U.S. Olympic team that won gold in Beijing. Hornets general manager Jeff Bower said he has received many calls about possible trades but declined to specify which teams, or how many, inquired about Paul. “I’m not going to comment on rumors, regardless of confirming them or denying them or saying how believable or unbelievable they are because it’s something that’s going to be there all throughout the free-agent process,” Bower said. “We have a duty to listen and have dialogue with teams about all of our players ... and our job is to be aware of the interest in every player in this league, not only other (teams’) players, but our own.”

BUCKS GET MAGGETTE MILWAUKEE – Seeking a scoring threat and willing to take on a significant contract, the Milwaukee Bucks acquired forward Corey Maggette in a trade with the Golden State Warriors on Tuesday. The Bucks also got a second-round draft pick from the Warriors, giving

up guard Charlie Bell and center Dan Gadzuric in return. Maggette played in 70 games with 49 starts for Golden State last season, averaging 19.8 points per game. He will be expected to provide offense for a team that may lose John Salmons, who can opt out of his contract and become a free agent. “Corey has been a consistent scorer throughout his career,” Bucks general manager John Hammond said in a statement. “He shoots a solid percentage from the field and has shown the ability to get to the free throw line. We’re looking forward to having him in a Bucks uniform.” Tuesday’s deal leaves the Bucks with three selections in the second round of Thursday night’s NBA draft. Maggette, an 11-year vet, has three years and approximately $31 million remaining on his contract. Bell played in 71 games with 39 starts for Milwaukee last season, averaging 6.5 points, 1.5 assists and 1.9 rebounds per game. Gadzuric appeared in 32 games with six starts, and averaged 2.8 points and 2.9 rebounds in 9.8 minutes.

May home sales dip as market struggles WASHINGTON (AP) – The housing market may be on the verge of taking another plunge that could weaken the broader economic recovery. Sales of previously occupied homes are dipping even though buyers can still benefit from government tax credits. And nearly a third of sales in May were from foreclosures or other distressed properties. That means home prices could be heading downward after stabilizing over the past year. Last month’s sales fell 2.2

JetBlue starts selling food on longer flights NEW YORK – JetBlue is joining other carriers offering onboard food for sale. Five new snack boxes go for $6 each. The snack boxes will be available on flights longer than 3 hours and 45 minutes. They range from a “Wake Up” box that includes a croissant, jam, almond butter, crackers, fruit and milk to a “Cheer Up” box that features three cheeses, dried fruit and crackers. There will still be free snacks on every flight.

Apple says 3 million iPads have been sold CUPERTINO, Calif. – Apple says it has sold 3 million iPads less than three months after the new device went on sale. The touch-screen tablet computer launched on April 3 in the U.S. and began selling last month in Asia and Europe. Apple Inc. plans to roll out the device in nine more countries in July. The company has not broken out sales by region.

Wall Street sign goes for $116,500 NEW YORK – A vintage sign that once marked an intersection near the New York Stock Exchange has sold for $116,500 at auction. Christie’s said the enamel “Broad St.” and “Wall St.” sign was bought Tuesday by an unidentified phone bidder. The auctioneer had estimated its value at $60,000 to $80,000 before the sale. The sign stood in front of the former headquarters of J.P. Morgan & Co. in New York. The intersection was the scene of a 1920 Wall Street bombing that killed 38 people and injured hundreds. Shrapnel scarred the sign. ENTERPRISE NEWS SERVICE REPORTS

percent from the previous month to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 5.66 million, the National Association of Realtors said Tuesday. Analysts who had expected sales to rise expressed concern that the real estate market could tumble once the benefit of the federal incentives is gone entirely, starting next month. “The outright decline in May sales is stunning given the last-ditch effort on the part of buyers to claim the tax credit,” Sal Guatieri, an economist at BMO Capital Markets.

Sales have climbed 25 percent from the 4.5 million annual rate hit in January 2009 – the lowest level of the recession. But they’re still down 22 percent from the peak rate of 7.25 million in September 2005. The report counts home sales when a deal closes. So federal tax credits of up to $8,000 for home buyers likely influenced May’s results. The deadline to get a signed sales contract and still qualify was April 30. Buyers must close their purchases by the end of this month.

Walgreen income falls 11 percent NEW YORK (AP) – Walgreen Co., the biggest U.S. drugstore chain, said Tuesday its profit sank 11 percent in the third quarter because of higher costs related to the nation’s health care rules and its $623 million buyout of rival Duane Reade. Those costs, CEO Greg Wasson said, converged with a weak economy, lower reimbursement rates and fewer new lowcost generic drugs. In addition, the latest results compare with a strong showing last year when drug stores got an added boost from the swine flu pandemic as treatments flew off shelves. The Deerfield, Ill., company reported net income of $463 million, or 47 cents per share, in the three months ended May 31. That’s down from $522 mil-

lion, or 53 cents per share, one year ago. Excluding one-time items, Walgreen earned 54 cents per share, short of the 57 cents analysts were looking for, according to a poll by Thomson Reuters. Walgreen shares slipped $1.83, or 6.1 percent, to $28.31 in morning trading. The new federal health care law eliminated a Medicare Part D tax benefit for retiree health benefits. Walgreen said that reduced net income by 4 cents per share and the acquisition of Duane Reade ate up another 2 cents. The company spent another penny per share in restructuring costs. Revenue, however, rose 6 percent to $17.2 billion, which just edged out analyst expectations of $17.14 billion.

Natural gas prices drop for 3rd day THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Natural gas prices stumbled for the third straight day Tuesday, although hot weather baked many parts of the country and the threat of a hurricane brewed in the Gulf of Mexico. Prices fell about 2 percent Tuesday on the New York Mercantile Exchange, bringing the total drop to nearly 8 percent over the past three days. Natural gas was down 15.6 cents at $4.717 per 1,000 cubic feet. It hit a four-month high of $5.20 per 1,000 cubic feet last week. Meanwhile retail gasoline prices edged lower overnight, falling 0.5 cent to a national average of $2.732 per gallon, according to AAA, Wright Express and Oil Price Information Service. Pump prices are

now 3.6 cents per gallon higher than a week ago and 6.9 cents lower than a month ago. They were 4.2 cents lower a year ago. Natural gas prices had been rising with scorching summer weather forcing utilities to use more gas to produce electricity and keep homes and businesses cool. Oil prices were flat Tuesday as the euphoria over China’s decision to let its currency appreciate waned. Benchmark crude was unchanged at $77.82 on the Nymex. It gained 64 cents on Monday. In other Nymex trading, heating oil fell 1.36 cents to $2.1323 a gallon, gasoline added 0.49 cent to 2.1477 a gallon. Brent crude picked up a penny at $78.83 on the ICE futures exchange.

Housing, bank worries drag stocks down NEW YORK (AP) — Stocks dropped for a second day Tuesday after home sales fell unexpectedly and the White House said it would fight a court ruling that lifted its ban on offshore oil drilling. The Dow Jones industrial average fell 149 points, its biggest drop in about two weeks. Treasury prices climbed after demand for safe investments rose. The National Association of Realtors reported that sales of existing homes fell 2.2 percent in May. The report surprised analysts who thought sales would get a lift from a homebuyer tax credit. Sales fell to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 5.66 million from a revised 5.79 million in April. Homebuilder Toll Brothers Inc. slid 3.2 percent, while Hovnanian Enterprises Inc. fell 3.5 percent. Oil stocks fell after the administration said it would appeal a judge’s decision to overturn a sixmonth ban on deepwater oil drilling in the Gulf of Mexico. Baker Hughes Inc., a supplier of oil drilling parts and services, fell 4.4 percent, while oil-services company Halliburton Inc. fell 3.9 percent. It was the second straight day that the market gave up early gains to end lower. The selling intensified shortly before 2 p.m. when the benchmark Standard & Poor’s 500 index fell below 1,111, its average finish of the past 200 days.

Geithner sees taxpayer Census: With jobs scarce, Rust Belt cities decline recovery on bailout WASHINGTON (AP) – Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner said Tuesday taxpayers are recovering their investment from the financial bailouts as the program is wound down. But he acknowledged there likely will be a loss from the rescue of insurer American International Group Inc. Geithner told a watchdog panel that banks have repaid about 75 percent of the bailout money they received, and the government’s investments in aided banks have brought taxpayers $21 billion. Geithner also said at a hearing of the Congressional Oversight Panel

that the auto industry has made significant structural changes and the prospects that General Motors and Chrysler will repay the bailout money have improved. The oversight panel was created by Congress to oversee the Treasury Department’s $700 billion financial bailout program that came in at the height of the financial crisis in the fall of 2008. The panel has been critical of the program, known as the Troubled Asset Relief Program or TARP. TARP “has helped restore financial stability at a much lower cost than anticipated,” Geithner

said in his testimony before the panel. “We have already recovered more than half of total disbursements under the program. And TARP investments have generated $24 billion in additional revenue for taxpayers.” The panel’s chair, Elizabeth Warren, said that with the TARP’s Oct. 3 expiration approaching, “this panel must know whether Treasury has carefully monitored the financial system to measure potential risks.” “Treasury has refused to call for additional stress tests of our financial system,” Warren said.

WASHINGTON (AP) – Hurt by the still-sluggish economy, Rust Belt cities and other U.S. manufacturing regions are suffering the biggest population losses as people search elsewhere for jobs. New census estimates for 2009 highlight the continuing effects of the recession on the nation’s cities. The figures show Cleveland had the largest numerical decline in residents, dropping 2,658, or nearly 1 percent. It was followed by Detroit, which lost 1,713 people, and Flint, Mich., down 1,382. Other losers include Baltimore, Buffalo, N.Y., and Pittsburgh, as well as the Florida cities of Cape Coral and St. Petersburg, two retirement destinations on the Gulf Coast. They declined as more older Americans stayed put in California, the Northeast and Texas. “Many baby boomers and young adults are still in a holding pattern,” said Mark Mather, associate vice president at the nonprofit Population Reference Bureau. “They are staying close to big cit-

ies where most jobs are located, waiting for the economy and housing market to bounce back before they make their next move.” Growth in once-torrid regions in the South and West such as Arizona, Nevada and Florida is slowing due to the housing

Cleveland had the largest population decline, dropping nearly 1 percent, followed by Detroit and Flint, Mich. crunch, while many big cities are gaining as they hold onto more residents. In all, four of the 10 fastest-growing cities in 2009 were in Texas, which saw substantial population gains due to a stronger labor market and immigrant growth.
