Jobless picture mixed BY PAUL B. JOHNSON ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

Four-year-old Eema Haynes found that her straw hat came in handy as she visited the boat drag event at Oak Hollow Lake Friday. The weekend forecast calls for hot and humid conditions with temperatures climbing to 98 degrees today and 99 on Sunday.

TRIAD – The direction of unemployment across the region and state was mixed in June after several previous months in which overall jobless levels declined. The unemployment rate from May to June fell in Randolph County while increasing in the city of High Point and Guilford County. The rate remained unchanged in Davidson County, according to figures released Friday by the N.C. Employment Security Commission. “The June county data show that for many of the counties in the state,

the unemployment rate has showed some level of improvement. Unfortunately, there are many counties where the rate of unemployment remains high,� said Lynn Holmes, chairman of the ESC in Raleigh. The city of High Point’s jobless rate increased from 10.6 percent in May to 11.1 percent in June. The city’s unemployment rate had fallen in February, March and April before increasing slightly in May. One sobering reflection of the recession: The city’s jobless rate has been above 10 percent

HIGH POINT – The city’s bid for a startup biotech company won’t have a chance to come to pass because the business won’t become reality. The High Point Economic Development Corp. announced Friday that the principals involved with Apixir Pharma Sciences

won’t move forward with plans to form the business. The pharmaceutical and biotech firm would have hired 25 people initially and boosted the local tax base by at least $2 million through a location in north High Point. “The company will not open in High Point, nor will the principals be forming this company at any other location at this time,� said EDC President Loren Hill.

High Point was competing for Apixir with other communities in the Triad as well as in New Jersey and California. The High Point City Council authorized up to $35,000 in economic incentives for Apixir June 7, but no incentives will be provided since the company isn’t materializing. One of the principals with Apixir who has handled ques-

Coble, Watt back bill aimed at cutting import duties The U.S. Manufacturing Enhancement Act received bipartisan sup-

BY PAUL B. JOHNSON ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

TRIAD – At first blush, a bill working its way through Congress that would waive certain duties on imports wouldn’t seem designed to help U.S. manufacturers. But a bipartisan set of legislative supporters, including Reps. Howard Coble, R-6th, and Mel Watt, D-12th, say the resolution passed Thursday by the U.S. House will help manufacturing companies in the Piedmont and across the nation by lowering their cost of buying key supplies from overseas vendors. The U.S. Manufacturing Enhancement Act, which is House Resolution 4380, contains duty suspensions on imported products that manu-

facturers need in order to prosper and expand, said Coble, one of the key co-sponsors of the legislation and cochairman of the Congressional Textile Caucus. The bill aims to eliminate duties on imports of certain supplies to U.S. manufacturers in which the manufacturers can find an American vendor to meet the need. “This bill will preserve and create job opportunities for North Carolina workers. With unemployment at 9.5 percent, this bill can’t come soon enough,� Coble said.

The National Association of Manufacturers estimates the legislation will increase production in the U.S. by $4.6 billion and support 90,000 jobs nationwide. port in the House, passing 378-43. The Senate has taken up the legislation. If

it’s passed by the Senate, President Barack Obama is expected to sign it. The National Association of Manufacturers estimates the legislation will increase U.S. production by $4.6 billion and support 90,000 jobs nationwide. Provisions of the bill would extend through the end of next year. “Manufacturers of all sizes use these vital tariff suspensions to obtain raw materials, proprietary inputs and other products that are not available in our nation,� the association reports. “Without them, the costs of these companies’ products will inevitably increase, forcing them to pass on these costs to consumers.� pjohnson@hpe.com | 888-3528

Researchers find race disparity in NC death cases

RALEIGH (AP) – A convicted killer is three times more likely to get a death sentence in North Carolina if the victim is white rather than black, according to researchers who have found similar results in other states. The report comes

weeks before a deadline for death row inmates to challenge their status under the Racial Justice Act, a state law that allows statistical evidence to be used to support a claim that race was a key factor in a death penalty decision.

Deputies seize pot, drug paraphernalia BY PAT KIMBROUGH ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

RANDOLPH COUNTY – Three people face charges after a probe by Randolph County drug investigators. The Randolph County Sheriff’s Office Vice & Narcotics Unit conducted a search of a residence at 4206 N.C. 62, Thomasville, on July 9 that led to the seizure of suspected drugs and other items of contraband, according to authorities. Detectives located and seized nine marijuana plants that weighed approximately 415 grams, as well as numerous

items of drug paraphernalia and what authorities believe was equipment used to grow marijuana. Two people were charged following the search and arrest warrants were drawn on a third suspect. Deputies listed the addresses for all three suspects as the site of the search. Joshua William Maiden, 26, was charged with manufacturing marijuana, felony possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia, according to the sheriff’s office. Deputies said he was also served with an outstanding

Lexington man faces sexual assault charges BY PAT KIMBROUGH ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

DAVIDSON COUNTY – A Lexington man faces sexual assault charges after an investigation by Davidson County authorities. Sheriff’s office detectives took a report on April 14 regarding a possible sexual assault of a juvenile. After an investigation, detectives have alleged that Edward Lee King Jr. committed sex acts upon a minor during 2007, according to the sheriff’s office. Authorities listed the location of the alleged incident as Long Bow Drive in Lexington. King, 29, of Harris Road, was ar-

a family member’s home to borrow money. After being refused, Myers allegedly picked up a purse and began to leave with it without permission of the owner, deputies said. A scuffle ensued and Myers left with the purse, authorities said. Myers was later found with the stolen property at his Peartree Road residence and deputies returned the purse and most of the money it contained to the victim. Myers, 24, was charged with common law robbery and booked into the Davidson County Jail under a $40,000 bond, deputies said.

each month since February 2009. Prior to this streak, the city’s jobless rate never had recorded a level above 10 percent since the ESC started keeping municipal jobless numbers in 1976. Guilford County’s jobless rate increased from 10.6 percent in May to 10.9 percent in June, but Randolph County took the opposite track, falling from 10.2 percent to 9.9 percent. Davidson County’s unemployment rate remained at 12 percent, one of the highest in the Piedmont. The state reflected the ambiguous job market in the Triad. Last month, unemployment rates decreased in 35 counties,

Al-Qaida claims it was behind twin Iraq bombings BAGHDAD (AP) – Al-Qaida in Iraq claimed responsibility for twin suicide bombings against its former insurgent allies that killed almost 50 people and said in an Internet statement posted Friday that it hoped the attacks would inspire others to “martyrdom.�

Al-Qaida’s ability to operate in Iraq has been sharply curtailed over the past couple of years because of a dramatic security crackdown, but attacks like the July 18 bombings have shown it remains able to strike back. In another setback in their battle with the group, Iraqi of-

ficials disclosed Thursday that four suspected al-Qaida members had escaped from a prison that the U.S. had handed over to Iraq a week earlier. In its Internet statement, al-Qaida said the bombings a week ago were part of a series of attacks against its turncoat al-

lies – former Sunni insurgents who are now members of progovernment militias known as Awakening Councils. It described its targets as “leaders of apostasy and the hypocritical Awakening.� One of the attacks, it said, targeted the Sunni fighters as they “rushed to get

the crumbs for which they have sold their religion.� The fighters were waiting at a Baghdad military checkpoint to collect their government paychecks when the bomber struck, killing 40. Al-Qaida put the number of dead and wounded at 120.

1 dead, 42 hurt as Swiss tourist train derails GENEVA (AP) – Switzerland’s popular Glacier Express tourist train derailed Friday in the Alps, killing one person and injuring 42 others on its spectacular journey between Zermatt and St. Moritz. Police said 12 of the injured were in serious condition and most of the passengers were Japanese tourists. Rescue workers were seen loading a few injured passengers onto medical helicopters to be flown out for treatment. Police declined to identify the person who died. Rail interruptions, let alone accidents, are rare in Switzerland. The Glacier Express – dubbed the “slowest express train in the world� – is known as much for its majestic mountain climbs as for its pedestrian 18 mph (30 kph) average speed. Valais authorities said two of the train cars drove off the tracks

Middle East ‘road to peace’ has seen dead ends Recently, it would seem that a very angry president called the prime minister of Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu, to get going on another so-called “Road to Peace.” Progress on this road that has many “potholes in it” has ended in failure many times before and in all probability will again, using the same formula. Back a number of years ago, I used to hear an old song titled, “Using My Bible for a Roadmap.” I know that will be ridiculous today in the “enlightenment” of our time. But the Bible still holds a lot of information on both Jewish people and the Palestinians, as to who has the rightful claim to the land of Israel, whose borders reach. In Genesis 15:18, “In the same day the Lord made a covenant with Abram saying, “Unto thy seed have I given this land, from the river of Egypt unto the great river, the river Euphrates:” which is east, beyond the Jordan. In Genesis 17:21 – “But my cov-

Pugh gives of his personal time to help people I just wanted to write a letter to express my appreciation of and to Councilman Mike Pugh of High Point’s Ward 3. My mom died in October, and he helped me with her estate among other things, because at that time I didn’t know which way was up. I later learned this man is my cousin, and my sons and I have spent a lot of time with him and his family since my mom’s death. I have been with him while tak-

ing calls about his regular job as a Realtor and calls from citizens in his ward. He has gone out of his way to help people with many different issues including helping a Down syndrome child keep his service animal that happened to be a pony. He has gone out of his way, including postponing family time, to go meet with citizens over issues as simple as their trash not being picked up to helping a woman who was banned from a nursing home her mother was in. Pugh has stood up and said that city employees should take pay cuts and that the ones that work in the High Point tax office should not lose their jobs. Jobs are being cut and services sent to Greensboro. A lot of people need the services that the High Point tax office have and he is fighting for what the people need not just want in his ward.

I wish I still lived in High Point and in his ward. All I can say is thank you for all he has done. I know the people will remember him when its time to vote. I also want to say I am very proud to call him family. VICKI STANLEY Archdale

wo state stories on largely the same subject have caught our eyes this week. First, on Monday, the North Carolina Education Lottery reported a 10 percent increase in sales over the last year than the previous year. The lottery said Monday sales grew to more than $1.4 billion during the 12 months ending June 30. Then on Tuesday, Gov. Perdue signed a bill making computer-based sweepstakes games at hundreds of North Carolina Internet cafes, business service centers illegal starting Dec. 1, extending the 2006 ban on video poker machines to the games. Think about that for a moment. In the same week, the state essentially “tooted its own horn” for running its best numbers racket in its history, while getting up on its high horse and banning competing numbers racket from the private sector. Now, we’re not saying the lottery or the sweepstakes games are wrong. It is a person’s prerogative to play or not play either one, but the state shouldn’t be so hypocritical. Lottery officials credited new weekly jackpot drawings – including the addition of the Mega Millions game – and more retail locations in general for the boost. That may be true, but even more likely is the idea that the lottery is essentially a poor tax -- that is, it disproportionately affects lower income citizens who see lottery dreams as their way out of their situation, and wind up losing the rent money. If you are already wealthy, you’ll know much more efficient ways to invest your money to make more of it than a simple game of chance. And the chances of winning in the North Carolina lottery have been proven to be much smaller than other states. No wonder the state is making more money on the lottery now. Not only are there more lower income people, with the recent recession, but it is keeping too much of the proceeds and playing on poor people’s hopes and dreams – the same reason legislators say they banned video poker and sweepstakes game. OK, so the lottery funds are used for education – the record sales helped send more than $419 million in net profits to education programs. That’s also the highest annual transfer since the first tickets were sold in 2006. But sweepstakes cafe owners hire people, too, and add to the tax base, which would mean more for education as well. They’re basically the same thing, lottery and sweepstakes. Legislators and Gov. Perdue shouldn’t pretend that they are not. http://www.sanfordherald.com

What’s the U.S. military up to in Costa Rica?

L

ast year, in an effort to make up for the fact that Ecuador said adios to the U.S. military which had been based within its borders, our government picked up stakes and made up for the loss by arranging to occupy seven bases in Colombia instead. When this happened, several South American nations registered their protest and thousands marched in the streets. The United States’ long, bloody history with Central America and South America still echoes in the thoughts of the people there. Our military deal with Colombia reignited regional anger over what looks like America’s continued imperialist ambitions. We claim to be in Colombia to assist with the “War on Drugs,” another of America’s failed “War on…” series of wars. But naturally, in addition to fighting the never-ending “War on Drugs” in Colombia, we are also assisting their right-wing government in its decades-long war with the leftist rebel group, FARC. It seems we just can’t keep our military out of other people’s nations and getting involved with their internal affairs. But strangely enough, even while we do it in places like Colombia, we refuse to do so in places like Darfur, for reasons unknown. But now it appears we’ve decided to send our troops into Costa Rica. According to La Nacion, we have sent 7,000 U.S. Marines to Costa Rica, allegedly to up the ante in our “War on Drugs.” That’s right, seven thousand U.S. Marines! First a little background: Costa Rica is apparently a staging ground from which drugs make their way through Mexico en route to the United States. And within Costa Rica, drug use among the population is apparently rising, and with it so are crimes such as murder. Costa Rica has no military of its own, but it does have an agreement with numerous nations to aid it in the case of an attack. One of those agreements is with the United States. According to the U.S. Department of State, our 1999 agreement with Costa Rica “facilitates cooperation between the Coast

Guard of Costa Rica and the U.S. Coast Guard.” Presumably, this is for the purpose of fighting the “War on Drugs” and suppressing drug smuggling through Costa Rican waters. Now the highlights: This OPINION is in no way an ordinary “War on Drugs” maneuver. Robert Although the Costa Rican Healy legislature voted 31-8 to allow ■■■ the U.S. to send its forces into their territory, it is the sheer magnitude of what we are sending that has created a furor among many people there and throughout the region. In addition to the aforementioned 7,000 U.S. Marines, we are also sending 46 warships and 200 helicopters. The U.S. forces have been given unlimited unfettered access throughout the country and may do as they please, as “the mission” dictates. But what is “the mission”? The “War on Drugs”? That seems highly unlikely. Why are we engaging in this activity while we are currently entangled in two wars in Iraq and Afghanistan? Why are we sending 7,000 U.S. Marines and warships and helicopters to Costa Rica when they should be sent where they are actually needed? Even more disturbing than this latest foreign policy development is that not one single mainstream news organization is addressing this fact at all. Not one. And every one of us should be asking why. This military engagement supposedly ends at the end of the year. Why are we committing such enormous financial and military resources to a mission in Costa Rica that is unclear and will supposedly conclude within less than six months? What’s really going on there? Why the news blackout? ROBERT HEALY is a veteran of the U.S. Army and graduate of the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. He lives in High Point. E-mail him at healycolumn@yahoo.com.

Rick Warren recovering from eye injury LAKE FOREST, Calif. (AP) – Pastor Rick Warren was briefly hospitalized due to an eye-injury that he suffered while gardening at home. Warren’s spokesman Larry Ross said the sap of a firestick plant got into Warren’s eyes when he wiped his brow while gardening. The sap can cause temporary blindness, although Ross said Warren can see. The 56-year-old pastor was treated overnight and released Tuesday from Mission Hospital in Mission Viejo. On Thursday, he sent a message to his Twitter followers asking for their prayers.

South Africa’s Tutu to retire from public life

SONNY HEDGECOCK | HPE

Larger than life This statue of Jesus seems to dominate this portion of Floral Garden Cemetery in High Point.

JOHANNESBURG (AP) – One of South Africa’s most beloved figures, Desmond Tutu, announced plans Thursday to retire from public life after his 79th birthday in October. The Nobel peace laureate honored for his efforts to fight apartheid said he wants to spend more time with his family. South Africans lavished praise on Tutu and said his retirement was well-deserved, but many said they could not imagine the country without his moral leadership. Opposition politician Patricia de Lille said Tutu’s “special” voice would be missed and there were hopes he would still speak out on issues facing the nation. Josephina Mahlaba, 60, an

The South African Council of Churches, which Tutu led during the apartheid era, commended the archbishop for the “prophetic role he played national and internationally.” “He was truly a voice in the darkness for very many people who are

dwelling in the darkness. He offered hope, he offered love and he offered life,” the council’s secretary general Eddie Makue said. In the years since apartheid ended in 1994, Tutu has remained active on a wide array of social and political issues, calling for the ouster of Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe and also helping to welcome hundreds of thousands of visitors last month to the World Cup. “He has become an international icon of fearless integrity, who has taken a stand against power abuse throughout his long public life,” said Helen Zille, the leader of South Africa’s main opposition political party.

ST. PAUL PRESBYTERIAN

Keep On Learning here is something inherently pleasant in learning new things. Even if we aren’t likely to ever use that piece of trivia, it’s still interesting. Indeed, our brains seem to be designed to learn new things. With a hundred billion brain cells, and about fifteen thousand connections (or synapses) per brain cell, we have, on average, about 1.5 quadrillion connections in our brain. In infants, there is a rapid increase in synapses until roughly the age of four, when children actually have more connections than adults. This is no doubt why children are such fast learners. The bad news is that the unused connections in our brains get pruned away after age 20, reaching the adult numbers around the age of 16.

Yesterday’s Bible question: Complete: “Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the ... in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called ... in the kingdom of heaven.” Answer to yesterday’s question: least, great. (Matthew 5:19) Today’s Bible question: If we call a brother “Thou fool,” what did Jesus say we would be in danger of?

These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

Understanding what you believe is important A

pologetics has nothing to do with apologizing for what you believe. It is learning how to defend what you believe in a manner that makes sense, is reasonable, logical and displays the highest and best characteristics of intelligence. Dr. Alex McFarland, president of Southern Evangelical Seminary, invites you to join with thousands of others in October to consider the theme, “Defending the Faith and the Family,� taught by the major apologists and worldview leaders. This will be the 17th Annual National Apologetics Conference, one great conference at two choice locations. The Oct. 8-9, conference will convene in greater Kansas City at Rayton, Mo., to be followed October 15-16, at Charlotte. That is Mid America and the East Coast with such dynamic and brilliant speakers and scholars as Chuck Colson, Lee Strobel, Josh McDowell, Erwin Lutzer, Anthony Bradley, William Federer, Dinesh D’Souza, Marvin Olasky, Janet Mefferd, William Dembski, J. P. Moreland, Gary Habermas, Nora Hale, Al Mohler, and many more.

These conferences will help you understand what you believe and how to present it to others in a convincing manner. Learn how, in this age of skepticism, doubt, fear and ferocious attacks, to defend SHARING your faith and family. THE SPIRIT Declared enemies and government regulations Bill that are often way off Ellis base and straying farther daily from the Constitution of the United States of America, are attacking daily. This conference will deal with what St. Peter referred to when he wrote, “But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you, with meekness and fearâ€? (I Peter 3:15). It is with “a good conscience ‌ and good conduct in Christâ€? that we defend and give a helpful answer concerning what we believe. For conference information, email: admin@ses.edu or call: 704-8475600, ext. 201 or call: 1-800-77-TRUTH.

This annual event is presented by Southern Evangelical Seminary and the Veritas Graduate School, 3000 Tilley Morris Road, Matthews, NC 28105. There will be two full days of superb content at each location. This is where you will find the greatest Christian thinkers and scholars. There will be dynamic, exciting, inspiring lectures on apologetics, theology, church leadership, discipleship, evangelism and issues affecting the modern family. This event is also designed to equip the Spanish speaking church. There will be workshops on Friday taught directly in Spanish. The main stage plenary sessions will also be translated into Spanish. At every conference, there are special events and speakers who will appeal to high school and college age young people. The displays, workshops, special breakout sessions, books, discussions, one on one conversations and a host of new friends are only a sample of what you can expect. Apologetics is not new. Throughout history, followers of Christ have been

called on to defend the faith and family when it was under attack. That attack seems to worsen daily in our world and especially in the United States. Men like the Apostle Paul, Justin Martyr, Augustine, Thomas Aquinas, C. S. Lewis and Norman L. Geisler, at various periods in world history, have been stalwart and stood strong in answering the call to “contend earnestly for the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints� (Jude 3). President Alex McFarland “believes that people desire and deserve a reasoned faith. We believe that Christianity offers exactly that.� Kitty and I have attended this great conference for many years and encourage you to attend this year in either Kansas City or Charlotte. Thousands will. Check it out for your church, business, high school, college and seminary. Begin now to gather information at www.nationalapologeticsconference. com.

iden Wilson (A.W.) Tozer (1897-1963) belonged to a small denomination few have heard of: Christian and Missionary Alliance (C&MA). Yet while this denomination is small (app. 340,000 members in 2004), it produced a man the Dictionary of Christianity in America calls “one of the most influential American evangelicals of the mid-Twentieth Century.� Tozer became a Christian at age 18 and was ordained at age 23. He pastored the Southside Alliance Church of Chicago from 1928-1959. Among the more than thirty books he wrote is one known as a spiritual classic, “The Pursuit of God.� But this spiritual classic is different than most others in that it was written in one setting. Tozer traveled from Chicago to Texas via train in the late 1940s (probably 1948); on that ride, he wrote the rough draft for the entire book during the night. He later expanded the volume and it was published for the first time in 1949. After his death on May 12, 1963, Tozer was buried in Akron, Ohio.

City officials question aspects of airport’s proposed master plan BY PAT KIMBROUGH ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – A month ago, High Point’s leaders got a rude awakening when they found out about what one of the city’s neighbors to the north was up to. This week, the City Council heard more detail about the Piedmont Triad International Airport’s draft master plan update, which proposes that the airport grow by 2,300 acres over the course of 30-plus years. City leaders have voiced concerns about how an expansion could affect High Point, especially potential

noise impact from planes taking off and landing on a possible additional runway. “For all of us, it was news. It came out of left field. It was a big surprise for us,” City Manager Strib Boynton told council members during a briefing on the plan. The draft was put together by airport consultant URS Corp. of Tampa, Fla., whose representatives did not solicit input from High Point officials. The council learned last month about the contents of the plan, which foresees a possible third parallel runway on the western side of PTIA. “Nothing is in stone. This

is a draft plan,” said PTIA Executive Director Ted Johnson. “We may never need a third parallel runway. We put it on the master plan simply to try to preserve an expansion area for the airport, and west is the only direction we can go. Whether it will be built, I don’t know. It will never be built in my lifetime.” City officials said one of their priorities should be protecting areas between the city and the airport to the north from noise-sensitive land uses. The territory is now in unincorporated Guilford County but within the city’s future growth area.

“It’s just ridiculous to think about putting residential and schools in that area,” said Mayor Becky Smothers, who stressed the importance of lobbying county leaders to ensure this isn’t permitted there. Council members questioned the need for another runway, pointing out the proximity of Smith Reynolds Airport in Winston-Salem to PTIA. “You’re talking about spending billions of taxpayer dollars here when we already have a third runway,” said Councilman Latimer Alexander.

HIGH POINT – County employees will park free as soon as next month when Centennial Center reopens as a county building. The Guilford County Board of Commissioners voted 8-0 this week to rent as many as 115 parking spaces from the International Home Furnishings Center for county employees. The lot lies between the current Department of Social Services building at 300 S. Centennial St. and Centennial Center at 325 E. Russell Ave., the new home for DSS and other county agencies. Although the county would pay $15 per month per car during the market months of April and October and $7.50 during the remainder of the year, employees will park free. Some employees have paid as much as $15 per month for parking. County officials have been working for months to provide free parking in Greensboro and High Point. County workers will move board of elections, tax department and register of deeds offices to the former Amos Hosiery Mill. The board also approved design plans on a 7-1 vote for $1.2 million in new air conditioning equipment for the High Point courthouse and jail. Money for the High Point renovation comes partly from $5.1 million left over from an upgrade project for the new Greensboro courthouse. Only Republican Commissioner Steve Arnold of High Point voted against the plan. In other business, the board voted 8-0 to contract with GovDeals, Inc., an online auction service, to help sell surplus goods, such as cars and furniture. The county would pay as much as $10,000 a year toward auction commissions of 7.5 percent. The county usually sells from $60,000 to $75,000 a year in surplus property, said Bonnie Stellfox, county purchasing director. dnivens@hpe.com | 888-3626

Moves: Plans include relocating the child support enforcement office at 305 N. Main St. to Centennial Center to save $90,000 in annual rent.

Agriculture Commissioner Steve Troxler of Guilford County recently was elected president of the Southern Association of State Departments of Agriculture. As president, Troxler will work to build consensus among member states on agricultural policy issues and communicate the regional group’s policy recommendations to National Association of State Departments of Agriculture.

“North Carolina has invested in a lot of runways that are underutilized.” Boynton said the city will have its comments on the draft to the airport authority by early September. The authority could then adopt the plan. “You’ve got 100,000 people to the south of this airport, and I hope we’re given a little bit more consideration,” said Councilman Bill Bencini. “A long time ago, the city did a good job with its planning in this area. I don’t think our neighbors did such a good job.”

Thomasville to join effort to clean up High Rock Lake BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

THOMASVILLE – Thomasville officials will join an effort with several other local governments to improve water quality in High Rock Lake. The Thomasville City Council this week agreed to sign a memorandum of understanding with Davidson County, the cities of High Point and Lexington and the towns of Midway and Wallburg to improve conditions in their common watershed areas that discharge into High Rock Lake Councilman Raleigh York Jr. said the agreement means local governments will “do the very best we can to preserve the lake in the highest quality as possible.” The city of Lexington and the towns of Midway and Wallburg have yet to approve the memorandum. The

High Point City Council approved the agreement in May. “All of the people in the county who can have a bearing on (High Rock Lake) went with this agreement or are considering going with this agreement,” York said. The agreement allows each government to terminate its participation by providing a 60-day written notice. The memorandum, which is a five-year agreement between the local governments, states that the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources has determined High Rock Lake to be impaired and unable to fully support biological life due to water quality violations. The memorandum states that the local governments “share a unified vision for the ongoing restoration, preservation, and maintenance of water quality in

the High Rock Lake watershed through consistency in planning, development and management of watershed lands and waters. The memorandum also states that Hamby Creek and North Hamby Creek are recognized by the state as priority restoration streams due to severe degradations.

In this Sept. 15, 1976, photo, television reporter Daniel Schorr (center) testifies before the House Ethics Committee in Washington.

Longtime newsman Daniel Schorr dies at age 93 WASHINGTON (AP) – Veteran reporter and commentator Daniel Schorr, whose hard-hitting reporting for CBS got him on President Richard Nixon’s notorious “enemies list” in the 1970s, has died. He was 93. Schorr died Friday at Washington’s Georgetown University Hospital after a brief illness, said his son, Jonathan Schorr. Daniel Schorr’s career of more than six decades spanned the spectrum of journalism – beginning in print, then moving to television where he spent 23 years with CBS News and ending with National Public Radio, where he worked until he died. He also wrote several books, including

his memoir, “Staying Tuned: A Life in Journalism.” The famed political reporter nearly became a music reviewer instead. Beyond the dogged reporting, though, Jonathan Schorr, 42, said his father was warm, caring and someone who taught by example. “We’re incredibly sad, but at the same time, my dad had 93 amazing years,” he said. “I think all he could have wished for is a terrific, long life, where he accomplished amazing things and died peacefully in the arms of his entire family.” Schorr reported from Moscow; Havana; Bonn, Germany; and many other cities as a foreign correspondent. While at CBS, he brought Ameri-

cans the first-ever exclusive television interview with a Soviet leader, Nikita Khrushchev, in 1957. During the Nixon years, Schorr not only covered the news as CBS’ chief Watergate correspondent, but he also became part of the story. Hoping to beat the competition, he rushed to the air with Nixon’s famous “enemies list” and began reading the list of 20 to viewers before previewing it. As he got to No. 17, he discovered his name. “I remember that my first thought was that I must go on reading without any pause, or gasp or look of wild surmise,” he wrote in his book “Clearing the Air.”

loose change, clothing, food items, and other small items. Police said of the more than $5,000 worth of property reported stolen in approximately 40 break-ins, about $2,000 worth has been recovered. The break-ins occurred in the Fair Grove and East Davidson communities in the southern end of Thomasville during the last month. Police said additional charges are pending against the three teens and the case is still under investigation.

Roses get their names from music icons E

ternal optimists and music lovers know the song “Walking on Sunshine� originally recorded in 1983 by Katrina and the Waves. According to a former employee of EMI (EMI Music Publishing – based in New York City), “ ‘Walking on Sunshine’ was the crown jewel in EMI’s catalog,� and that it was one of EMI’s biggest earners from advertisers. On the music charts, it reach No. 4 in Australia and No. 9 in the U.S. Another crown jewel of the music world is Dick Clark who was host of American Bandstand from 1956 until 1989. Two roses announced by AllAmerica Rose Selections as winning roses are named for both these music icons. The breeders on both these roses hope their roses become timeless hits as well. To be chosen as an AARS winner, these roses thrived

during two years of comprehensive testing in 23 gardens nationwide. Each winning rose bears the AARS red-rose seal of ECOLOGY approval. This year is Gwyn the 25th anRiddick niversary of ■■■the release of “Walking On Sunshine� and a series of back-catalogue re-releases and a re-recorded version of the track are being released. Royalties from airplay and advertisements of “Walking on Sunshine� has been extremely high. Katrina and the Waves kept the publishing rights and the royalties that typically go to the songwriter have been divided among the band members, though Katrina was fired from the band

in 1998. Estimates are that the song has earned $1 million per year for the 10 years ending in 2010 Waling on sunshine rose has tight clusters of bright yellow buds which burst open with an anise aroma. The very glossy, disease-resistant foliage is a contrast to the striking yellow flowers. It is reported easy to care for and great for beginners. It is a floribunda type rose instead of the long stemmed hybrid tea type. Walking on sunshine was hybridized by Keith Zary of Jackson and Perkins wholesale Roses. Dick Clark sports black-red buds which spiral open. They develop into swirls of cream edging washed with vibrant cherry pink. When the sun strikes the petals, they begin to blush burgundy but they finish as a deep dark red. In contrast to Walking on Sunshine,

Dick Clark is a tall growing grandiflora. It is reported easy to grow and shows great vigor with long stems great for cutting. It was hybridized by Tom Carruth and Christian Bedard of Weeks Roses. AARS recommends the following rose care tips for best results: • Selective pruning of top growth can produce bigger, but fewer, blooms. • For modern varieties, pruning keeps them blooming repeatedly all summer long. • Well-established hybrid teas, floribundas and grandifloras should be pruned early each spring after the winter protection has been removed and just as the buds begin to swell. • Old-fashioned roses and climbers that bloom only once a year should be pruned immediately after flowering since they bloom on wood from the

Guilt keeps couple trapped in mom’s basement apartment D

ear Abby: I’m 25 and live in my mother’s basement apartment with my boyfriend. We would like to be married soon, now that we’re out of school and have stable careers. But I insist that we move out of Mom’s house before making any permanent plans. The problem is my mom, who is divorced, is unemployed and a social phobic, with few friends. We provide her with financial support by paying several hundred dollars a month in rent, in addition to other bills. She helps me with a loan when the rare emergency arises. Every time I mention moving out, she becomes angry with me. She cries that she’ll be left alone with no money – and it makes me feel so guilty I relent. I have no idea what to do. My older sister, who is married with two children, might be able to help me out, but we have never been close and I’m reluctant to ask for her advice. Please help, Abby. – Mama’s Girl in Roswell, Ga. Dear Mama’s Girl: You are not the solution

to your mother’s problems. The time has come for you to spread your wings and fly ADVICE the nest. Before you Dear leave, be Abby sure the ■■■apartment is in the freshest condition possible so it can be rented and your mother will have some income. She will probably need professional help to overcome her ingrained social insecurities – so encourage her to get it. (Some licensed psychotherapists specialize in phobic disorders.) It will change her life – and yours – for the better. Dear Abby: If a girl ever needed advice, it’s me. My father walked out 20 years ago, leaving four children and a disabled wife. He just vanished. We grew up and I searched for him. Because of the power of the Internet, I was contacted by his family, and Dad was found. He had reunited with his sister, who updated me.

Now I’m faced with the dilemma of how to speak to him for the first time since I was in diapers, and I am angry. My aunt advises me not to ask for answers to questions like “why� because I may not get them. Of the things he did say to her, not once did he express remorse. I guess what I’m asking is how to talk to this stranger who altered my life. Most of what I have are questions. How am I not entitled to answers? Abby, this has been a long search and now that I have succeeded, I don’t know what to do. – Stressed In Texas Dear Stressed: Your anger is justified. Unless he was locked in a mental ward, a man who would leave a disabled wife and four small children and “just vanish� is someone with no concern for anyone other than himself. Approach him with the same caution you would any other stranger, because that’s what he is. Because this is stressful, list your questions in advance so you won’t forget any. But I’m warning you: Do not

allow him to make you feel sorry for him. Dear Abby: Last night while walking my dog I noticed the lights in my neighbor’s car had been left on. It was after midnight and his house was dark. I am not particularly close to this neighbor, although we acknowledge each other in passing. I rang his doorbell, but he didn’t answer. The next morning as I left for work I saw the lights in his car were still on. What is appropriate in this situation, Abby? Would people want to be told, or is it better to let them sleep? – Caring Neighbor, Boulder, Colo. Dear Neighbor: I can’t speak for everyone, but I know I would much prefer to have someone ring my bell and tell me I forgot to turn off the lights than have to deal with a dead battery in the morning.

Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

previous year’s growth. • The first feeding of your roses should be done when the bush first leafs out. For the remainder of the growing season, fertilize after each flush of blooms. Stop fertilizing about 2 months before the first frost. Use a commercial rose food or general-purpose fertilizer applied according to manufacturer instructions.

Crews have finished rebuilding the bridge, making the campground once again accessible. Several campgrounds along the Tioga Road and the Bridalveil Creek Campground on the Glacier Point Road, which were closed during the winter of 2009, are also open again. Even with the additional sites, officials say all campsites on the reservation system are booked through the summer. People who want to

“My car is in the shop,” Unlucky Louie said to me as our afternoon game was winding down. “Why don’t you give me a ride home and stay for dinner?” “What’s on the menu?” I asked. “The usual,” Louie sighed. “If it’s moral, my wife has done it to a chicken.” On the last deal of the day, Louie was declarer at two spades, and West led the eight of hearts. Louie finessed with dummy’s queen, and East took the king and shifted to a trump. West took the jack, king and ace and led a fourth trump, reducing the play to notrump. Louie tried to save something by finessing with the jack of clubs, but when West produced the queen, Louie took only six tricks.

HOT DEFENSE “Two losing finesses, a bad trump break and a hot defense,” Louie grumbled. Louie’s play wasn’t illegal or immoral, but it was ineffective. Louie should chicken out and take the ace of hearts at Trick One. He can cash the top diamonds and clubs and start a crossruff. As the cards lie, he easily takes

Exercise can cause asthma attack

D

ear Dr. Donohue: Can you figure out what’s going on with me? I have been a daily runner for a number of years. I mostly run on a treadmill in an air-conditioned gym, especially in the summer months. This year, I am having breathing troubles. About six or seven minutes into my run, I start coughing and feel like there’s a tight strap around my chest. I have to slow down or stop. The strange thing is that when I run outside, none of this happens. Why? – S.J.

BLONDIE

B.C.

You make a good case for exercise-induced asthma. During an asthma attack, the bronchi – the airways – constrict. Simultaneously, they start pouring out thick mucus. Both make the passage of air into and out of the lungs most difficult. It’s a bit like being choked. People begin to wheeze, cough and struggle to get enough air. Chest tightness is another symptom. Troubles usually arise after about 10 minutes of fairly intense exercise. If a person can continue, symptoms often lessen. I’m not telling you to persist. It’s wiser to stop to avoid possibly developing greater breathing difficulty. Those already diagnosed with asthma and under treatment for it have this problem. They’re prepared for it. They take medicines

before exercise. The reason why you have symptoms in the air-conHEALTH ditioned gym but Dr. Paul not outside Donohue most likely ■■■ is due to the cooler, dry air of the gym. That air triggers airway constriction. Warm, moist air is less likely to do so. You cannot depend on my guess to start treatment for exerciseinduced asthma. The diagnosis has to be proven. That’s best done in the doctor’s office. The doctor has you take a breathing test before you exercise, and then has you exercise on a treadmill. When symptoms appear, he or she gives you another breathing test. A change in the amount of air getting to your lungs indicates the airways have constricted. Medicines can prevent these attacks. Inhaling a medicine like Proventil 10 minutes before exercise keeps the airways opened. Or you can take an oral medicine like Singulair. You have to take it at least two hours before exercising, but its effects last for a full 12 hours. Or you can skip all this and limit yourself to outdoor running in warm weather. Dear Dr. Donohue: I

run for my high school. I run both short and long distances. When I see college or Olympic runners on TV, they continue to run after the race is over. I do too, because other runners are doing it and because of what I have seen on TV. I’d much rather sit down and catch my breath. Why is this done? – B.L. There’s no law that you have to keep running at a reduced pace after a race. If you don’t want to, don’t. The athletes you see who continue to run after the race is over do so to get rid of lactic acid buildup. Lactic acid is the byproduct of energy production for muscle action. High levels of lactic acid cause muscle pain. Trotting around after a race keeps blood circulating to muscles and assists in the faster removal of lactic acid. Dear Dr. Donohue: I have trouble with weak ankles. I am always twisting one or the other. Which is better for me – tape or an elastic brace? – T.J. I take you to mean you have this problem when you’re jogging or running. An elastic wrap provides longer-lasting support for the ankles than tape does. Tape loses its gripping power somewhat quickly.

Ledford finishes quick coaching search BY ZACH KEPLEY ENTERPRISE THOMASVILLE BUREAU

WALLBURG – When Ledford boys basketball coach Scott Dalton took an administrative position with Central Davidson earlier this week, Panthers athletic director Donald Palmer did not need a stack of resumes to thumb through. The guy he wanted has been roaming the sidelines of the junior varsity program the past five seasons. In what has become a coaching and administra-

tive carousel between the Panthers and Spartans, Jonathan Leonard – a 1993 graduate of Central Davidson – has accepted the head coaching job. “I am so excited,” Leonard said Friday in a phone interview from a New York hotel. “I never thought it would happen, to tell you the truth. I thought the world of Scott as a coach and I did not think he would leave. Whenever he did decide to take the job, Coach Palmer asked me what I thought about it and if I would be interested. I jumped on

the opportunity.” Palmer knew Dalton was pursuing an administrative position, but did not think it would happen so soon. When Dalton passed down the final word he had accepted the position at Central – a job new Panthers football coach Chris Adams left last month – Palmer thought Leonard was the obvious choice. “We didn’t know anything until Tuesday, so myself and (principal) Bill Butts talked it over,” Palmer said. “The best thing we decided to do was hire Jonathan. He has

done a great job for us in the JV program and we figured that he was the logical choice.” After graduating high school, Leonard served in the Navy for four years and then worked as an electrician. There was something missing, though, so Leonard decided to tackle his dream of becoming a physical education teacher. He obtained his degree from UNC Greensboro, and when a spot became available at Ledford, he took it. His JV basketball teams have been successful despite losing many of its

top players to the varsity. Leonard plans on keeping the style of play the way Dalton preferred it, and believes the team next season will be just as competitive as teams in the past. “We have a good group coming back and I know we are going to be competitive and work hard,” Leonard said. “We aren’t going to be the tallest or the most talented, but I guarantee they will go out there with some heart and are going to play hard. We have some great kids, and I am honored and excited to be the coach.”

Boat racer happy to return H

igh Point holds a special place in John Haas’ heart. The affinity goes beyond the usual love drag boat racers profess for Oak Hollow Lake’s surface being smooth and not having the current and boat wakes of the open rivers where some meets are held. “I got licensed to race in Top Fuel Hydro here in 1998 and it’s always been one of my favorite places because of that. And I won the race, so it was SPORTS a spectacular deal for me because it Greer started my Top Smith Fuel career,” said ■■■ Haas, a 55-yearold from the southwest corner of Michigan who has been racing boats for 30 years. “Apparently, I like to do it,” he said. He began racing on water because he grew up next to a lake. He’s tried racing snowmobiles and cars, but likes boats the most. “I’ve had a fascination with speed since I was a kid,” Haas said. “The boat thing is the biggest thing I’ve ever done in motorsports. There is nothing like going from a dead stop to 225 miles an hour in 600 feet.” If given the chance to race Top Fuelers on land, he would jump at the chance. “But my age, I don’t think I’d get the chance,” he said. “I know I can do it physically, but I’m not one of those young pretty guys who brings the sponsors.” He is boat racing’s version of perhaps land drag racers Tony Schumacher or John Force. He’s won five Top Fuel titles, including four in the last five times. He comes to High Point, where he has won four times, leading the points in the race to become the first champion of the tour under the direction of Lucas Oil. He humbly says that he’s had an up-and-down season. He’s won twice, the most recent last week at Augusta where he low-

Top Fuel Hydro points leader John Haas watches tuner ‘Famous Amos’ Satterlee works on an engine Friday as the “Speed Sports Special” team gets ready for this weekend’s Thunder on Oak Hollow boat drags. Qualifying is today, beginning at 9 a.m., with eliminations on Sunday. ered the record for elapsed time to 3.89 seconds for the new distance of 1,000 feet for runs by the tour’s four professional classes. He’s been knocked out of one race by mechanical failure and dodged calamity at another when he was involved in an incident at the end of last month that injured Daryl Ehrlich, who won here last season. The crash began when Haas crossed into Ehrlich’s lane after his rudder broke at the finish. Ehrlich hit Haas’ wake and went airborne as he became tangled in Haas’ parachutes. Ehrlich wound up with a broken back. Haas escaped injury when his Speed Sport Special ran aground and hit some rocks. “I was headed toward the crowd, but when Ehrlich hit my chutes it kind of straightened me out,” Haas said. “The guys had to scramble to fix it. But they give me a good hot rod and when you have a good hot rod, you can win races.”

Haas’ hot rod comes from a St. Louis team owned by Lou Osman, who has been able to weather the economic downturn and afford the $200,000 that it takes to field a boat each year because his job as a military sales representative has prospered. Osman credits the team’s success to the crew, in particular 80-year-old engine tuner Amos Satterlee, whose resume includes extensive NHRA work that began in the 1960s and included building Funny Car engines for Danny Ongais and Mickey Thompson in the ’70s. “I told a friend of mine who is thinking of moving up from Pro Modified that he had plenty of money to do it financially, but all the money in the world, if you don’t have the crew then you have no chance in Top Fuel,” Osman said. “Amos is the best tuner out here and John is the best driver.”

The team is experienced enough that it passes on Friday’s opportunity to practice. “If it were a new boat we might,” Haas said. “But we’ve tested quite a bit. There’s no sense wearing yourself out.” Haas will make one, possibly two passes, in qualifying today as a prelude to Sunday’s eliminations for the four teams that made it to Oak Hollow. Because of the lake’s smooth surface, he said a new elapsed time record is possible. The hot, humid weather stands in the way. “The heat and humidity takes oxygen out of the air and oxygen makes these things go,” Haas said. “We had the same conditions at Augusta, but not quite this bad. One of the belts was coming off the engine at about 800 feet. If we can keep it on, we may set the record.” It would be another reason for Haas to love High Point. gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3519

HIT AND RUN

A

s the big-league trade deadline nears, contending teams will be scrambling to find that final piece of their championship puzzle. Of course, trades aren’t the only way championship teams can bolster their rosters. Midseason call-ups can also prove critical in the drive for the pennant. That brings me to my favorite call-up of all time – Bob “Hurricane” Hazle. Hazle was an outfielder who only played parts of three seasons in the show (1955, ‘5758). He was a career .310 hitter in the majors with nine homers and 37 RBIs in 110 games. But “Hurricane” Hazle took the National League by storm late in the summer of 1957. The Milwaukee Braves were locked in a tense pennant race when starting outfielder

Bill Bruton suffered a season-ending knee injury. Hazle was called up from Wichita and wasted no time making an impact. In less than three weeks, from Aug. 9 through Aug. 25, Hazle batted .473 with five home runs and 19 RBIs in 14 games. The original Hurricane Hazel had struck the coast of Hazle’s home state, South Carolina, in 1954, and also wreaked havoc all along the East Coast. Hazle, meanwhile, helped the Braves sweep the second-place Cardinals from Aug. 9-11. He recorded seven hits and five RBIs in the first two victories and posted a .556 batting average over his first dozen games. Overall, Hazle batted .403 in 41 games in

1957, notching seven homers and 27 RBIs in 134 at-bats. He even broke up a potential nohit bid by the Reds’ Johnny Klippstein with a two-out, eighth-inning single on the next-tolast day of the regular season. In the Braves’ thrilling World Series victory over the Yankees, Hazle played in four of the seven games. He hit a paltry .154, but had two hits in the Braves’ 5-0 win in Game 7. Hazle finished fourth in the 1957 National League Rookie of the Year voting. He was traded to Detroit in 1958 and retired in 1959. Hazle’s big-league career was short, but he didn’t blow his opportunity to leave a lasting impression.

COL DU TOURMALET, France (AP) — A brief look at Friday’s 18th stage of the Tour de France: Stage: The 18th stage took the riders on a 123-mile virtually flat ride from Salies-deBearn to Bordeaux. Winner: Mark Cavendish of Britain took his fourth win of this year’s race, beating his rivals in a bunch sprint in a time of 4 hours, 37 minutes, 9 seconds. Julian Dean of New Zealand was second and Alessandro Petacchi of Italy third. Yellow Jersey: Alberto Contador of Spain holds onto his eight-second lead over Andy Schleck of Luxembourg. Petacchi takes over the green sprinters’ jersey. Quote of the Day: “C’est la vie” – Thor Hushovd after losing the green jersey of leading sprinter and acknowledging he won’t get it back. Next stage: Saturday’s 19th stage is the final chance for changes at the top of the overall classifications. The 32.3-mile time trial from Bordeaux to Pauillac is likely to suit Contador, who will ride last as the race leader.

Former Pack star Byrd dies

AP

Brad Keselowski (left) dons a helmet while Carl Edwards pushes his car during Friday practice for Sunday’s Brickyard 400 at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Both accepted penalties resulting from an incident in Saturday night’s Nationwide race at Gateway Raceway.

Edwards, Keselowski content with penalties driver, and I know that.” And so it went in the latest round between a pair of drivers who have tangled on the track dating to last season. Although most of their incidents went largely unnoticed in the second-tier Nationwide Series, it’s escalated of late into a several spectacular crashes. Saturday night at Gateway, Edwards refused to allow Keselowski to take the win away from him. He admitted to wrecking Keselowski as payback for moving Edwards moments before and was unapologetic in Victory Lane. But that wreck collected multiple other cars, and after mulling it over for several days, NASCAR decided the antics of Edwards and Keselowski had to be punished because of the other drivers who were caught in the carnage. For that, Edwards, who was docked 60 points and fined $25,000, was apologetic. “There are unintended consequences to that, and the torn-up cars that weren’t mine or Brad’s, that’s a bad result,” Edwards said. “It really struck home for me.” Beyond that, Edwards seemed

unrepentant for anything he did at Gateway and held firm in his belief that Keselowski’s history of hard racing against him warranted the payback. “I will not be walked on. I won’t be stepped on,” he said. “It’s not OK to move me out of the way. If somebody else wants to let people move them out of the way for the win, that’s OK with me. I can’t allow myself to be run over like that.” Keselowski, who like Edwards was placed on probation through the end of the year, was somewhat grateful for the NASCAR punishment because it eliminated the speculation that he’ll have to retaliate this weekend. He will race against Edwards twice, first in Saturday night’s Nationwide event at O’Reilly Raceway Park and then in the Sprint Cup Series main event Sunday at the Brickyard. “What that says is NASCAR doesn’t want me to go out there and intentionally retaliate against Carl, which is great,” Keselowski said. “I don’t want to. I’m glad that they took that away. Now I don’t have to worry about that.”

Martin tires of questions about 2011 INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Mark Martin tried being polite. Really, really tried. For weeks the NASCAR veteran has respectfully addressed speculation about his future, saying he has no plans to leave his job driving the No. 5 for Hendrick Motorsports next year to make way for the recently signed Kasey Kahne. Frankly, he’s tired of talking about it. He plans on returning to Hendrick in 2011. Period.

“I feel very disrespected when the media doesn’t accept that because what that means is that you make me look like I’m about to get fired,” Martin said Friday at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. “That’s very disrespectful.” Though the 51-year-old acknowledged his team has struggled at times this season, he’s not plotting a graceful exit. “I’ve made myself perfectly clear over the last several weeks,” he said.

“There’s no inclination of any change, but I will tell you this: there is no road map for me and my future. So don’t even start thinking about criticizing what I do in 2012 or beyond, because I don’t know.” Not everyone is convinced. Ray Evernham, who won three Cup titles as a crew chief for Jeff Gordon while working for Hendrick and now works as a TV analyst, believes if Martin races in 2011, it

will be in a different car. “I won’t be surprised if in the next 3-4 weeks that Mark makes some kind of announcement that says ’Hey Rick Hendrick has been good to me, the best thing I can do for him is to make room for Kasey,”’ he said. Kahne signed with Hendrick Motorsports in April to drive the No. 5 Chevrolet in 2012. The deal called for Hendrick to find a place for Kahne next season while he waits for his seat to open.

Reutimann, MWR make extension official THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

INDIANAPOLIS — David Reutimann pledged he’d keep showing up to the shop at Michael Waltrip Racing like he always has, even if a potential lack of sponsorship money meant the only thing he’d be driving was a tractor to cut the grass.

A timely victory for one of NASCAR’s most affable drivers means Reutimann can keep the John Deere in the garage for awhile. Reutimann and MWR have agreed to a contract extension that will keep him in the No. 00 Toyota through the 2012 season, giving the 40-year-old

something he’s lacked during his Cup career: job security.

HORNISH UNSURE INDIANAPOLIS — Sam Hornish Jr. doesn’t know where he’ll be racing next season. Speaking in front of one of team owner Roger Penske’s many Indianapolis

500 cars in the museum at the Brickyard on Friday, Hornish said his future in NASCAR is uncertain. Because sponsor ExxonMobil is leaving his car at the end of this season, there’s nothing in place for Hornish to drive next year. “No updates as far as I’m concerned yet,” he said.

Miami, Irish renew rivalry CORAL GABLES, Fla. (AP) — Miami and Notre Dame have agreed to renew a football rivalry that during the 1980s helped define each program and decide several national championships. The Hurricanes and Fighting Irish will play Oct. 6, 2012, at Soldier Field in Chicago, then play a home-and-home starting in 2016 at South Bend, Ind. They play in Miami the next season. The rivalry dates to the 1950s and Notre

Cavendish won a stage for the fourth time in this Tour and the 14th time in just three years of competing in cycling’s premier event. He surged to the front in the final couple of hundred yards. He gave himself such a lead that he was able to look behind him a couple of times and then cross the line with his fist in the air. Some Hollywood star power was there to greet him. Cameron Diaz and Tom Cruise, on hand to promote their latest film in France, joined Conta-

dor on the podium to receive his yellow jersey. Cruise raised the Spaniard’s hand and patted him on the back. Cavendish won without his usual leadout man and roommate. Mark Renshaw was expelled from the race after the 11th stage for head-butting an opponent, and Cavendish dedicated his latest victory to Renshaw. He says the Australian rider made life easy, bringing him to the front. “I’ve missed Mark,” Cavendish said. “I missed him in the Pyr-

enees, I missed somebody suffering more than me. I missed somebody to laugh about, about how hard it is.” Second place went to Ju-

Dame leads the series 15-7-1. But it was during the 1980s, when Miami became a national power, that the rivalry got interesting. In 1985, Miami embarrassed Notre Dame 58-7 in Gerry Faust’s last game as coach of the Fighting Irish. Faust was replaced by Lou Holtz. Soon after Notre Dame was a national title contender again and the MiamiNotre Dame game was routinely one of the biggest of the season.

SEC coaches: Players helped trigger probe HOOVER, Ala. (AP) — Tennessee coach Derek Dooley and Auburn’s Gene Chizik both say the onus isn’t just on agents to follow the rules, college athletes know the difference between right and wrong. “A lot of this has got to go back to the young guy,” Chizik said Friday. “He’s got to have an allegiance to his school. He’s got to have an allegiance to his teammates. He’s got to have an allegiance to his coaches and to his university. The bottom line is, I think everybody probably does a really good job of trying to educate their kids. “If they know right from wrong and they choose to do wrong, then they don’t really have an allegiance to the people that I just mentioned. They know right from wrong.” It was a slightly different message from the first two days of the Southeastern Conference media days, when coaches were on the attack against unscrupulous sports agents. Investigations are ongoing at Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina and Florida for alleged improper contact, along with North Carolina. The

Contador moves closer to Tour de France crown BORDEAUX, France (AP) — Even without his most important teammate, Mark Cavendish showed yet again that few can touch him when it comes to sprinting. The British rider captured the 18th stage of the Tour de France on Friday while Alberto Contador of Spain drew closer to victory. The defending champion leads Luxembourg’s Andy Schleck by eight seconds entering Saturday’s decisive time trial, a day before the three-week race ends in Paris.

In May, Byrd was among 14 former players and coaches elected to the hall. Byrd was a three-time first-team All-Atlantic Coast Conference selection, and helped N.C. State win a share of the 1965 ACC championship. He was a consensus All-America in 1966 and 1967. He was drafted by the Boston Patriots in 1968 and played two seasons in the old American Football League. He is survived by his wife and four children.

lian Dean of New Zealand and third to Alessandro Petacchi of Italy. Petacchi took the green jersey given to the leading sprinter from Thor Hushovd.

rash of issues led Crimson Tide coach Nick Saban to liken the actions of those rogue agents to the behavior of a pimp. Dooley and Chizik both said the athletes are willing participants. “At the end of the day, it’s the responsibility of the player to not take it,” Dooley said. “And I don’t know any other way to put it. It’s a responsibility of the player that if somebody comes up and confronts you in public and wants to fight you, to walk away. It’s a responsibility of the player not to break the law. So it’s a responsibility of the player not to break the rules of the NCAA.” Several players agreed with that sentiment, including LSU linebacker Kelvin Sheppard. “Both sides are responsible,” Sheppard said. “Both are adults. Definitely, players need to take ownership and know certain rules they need to abide by as a college athlete.” Tennessee and Auburn are among schools that hired consultant Joe Mendes, a former NFL executive, to help educate and manage players’ dealings with agents.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Carl Edwards and Brad Keselowski are content with the hand-slapping they received from NASCAR this week for their latest on-track altercation. That’s about the only thing the feuding drivers agreed upon Friday at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Keselowski insisted he did not intentionally hit Edwards’ car — it was a mistake, he said — as he moved the leader out of his way on the final lap of last weekend’s Nationwide Series in St. Louis. Edwards wasn’t buying it, though. “I believe that he did not make a mistake,” Edwards countered. “I’m telling you that as a race car driver, and any other race car driver will tell you, that that wasn’t a slip-up, and if it was a slip-up, which, hey, he might convince himself that it’s a slip-up, you have a little bit of insurance that you leave yourself when you go down in the corner like that. “I believe he’s not being completely honest that that was a mistake. He’s too good of a race car

RALEIGH (AP) – Dennis Byrd, a former defensive tackle at North Carolina State who was to be inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in December, has died. He was 63. N.C. State spokeswoman Annabelle Myers said Byrd died Friday in Charlotte. Myers said the family told the school that Byrd suffered a heart attack on July 15 while undergoing back surgery and never regained consciousness.

Weaver, Wilfong paired together in f inal round BY STEVE HANF ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER

GREENSBORO – Drew Weaver and Chad Wilfong will play together today in the final round of the eGolf Professional Tour’s Forest Oaks Classic. Both, however, were hoping for later tee times than their 8:30 a.m. assignment off No. 1 at Forest Oaks Country Club. And it has nothing to do with sleeping in. The leaders go off at 9:30 today. “I hit it really well – just did not putt well today,� Weaver said Friday following his even-par round of 72. “Thirty-six putts. That’s half my score right there. It was frustrating. I got off to a really

good start and could have done some really good things.� Instead, Weaver dropped from his tie for fourth place to a tie for 15th. At 10under-par for the tournament, he stands six shots behind leader Brett Munson. Wilfong, meanwhile, made up a little ground by shooting a 3-under 69 that moved him to 9-under for the event and tied for 23rd. The Thomasville native answered a bogey-4 at the third hole with three straight birdies, then came home with birdies on Nos. 16 and 18 after a bogey-5 at the 14th. Weaver, meanwhile, opened on fire with birdies on three of his first four

holes and a missed three-footer for birdie on the third. The trend of missed putts would continue, though, with three-putts at the seventh, eighth and 12th holes going for bogeys. Weaver remained at even for the day with a birdie on the 18th after he lost a stroke at No. 17. “I’m not far off from a good finish. A great round (today) will put me back in contention, so it could have been worse,� Weaver offered. “I’ve been hitting it really well the last three days. Whether I can win or not, I can do myself a lot of good (today) by hitting good golf shots.� A total of 21 players are within six

shots of Munson’s lead going into the final round. The recent North Alabama graduate, who just received the Jack Nicklaus Award as the best golfer in NCAA Division II, missed his first four cuts as a professional. On Friday, his eight birdies led to a 64 that gave him a one-shot lead over Daniel Woltman and Ben Martin. Two golfers stand at 14-under, four are at 13-under, two more at 12-under and another trio sits at 11-under. Weaver is in a group of eight golfers at 10-under, while Wilfong is one of four at minus-9. shanf@hpe.com | 888-3526

Hornaday scores at ORP

Pavin leads despite double THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CARNOUSTIE, Scotland – American Ryder Cup captain Corey Pavin shot a second straight 2under 69 Friday to share the second-round lead with Bernhard Langer of Germany at the Senior British Open. Pavin and Langer (71) have 4-under totals of 138 and are one shot ahead of a quartet that includes Ian Woosnam (67) and Jay Haas (69). Pavin was among the early starters and looked set to take a commanding lead before finishing with a double-bogey 6 at the 18th after hitting his second shot out of bounds. Langer had to deal with a biting cold wind later in the day but also got to 6-under before bogeys on two of the par-3 holes.

CANADIAN OPEN TORONTO – Tim Clark

shot a bogey-free 6-under 64 on Friday for a share of the second-round lead with Dean Wilson in the Canadian Open in another low-scoring day at straight-hitter friendly St. George’s. Wilson had his second straight 65 to match Clark at 10-under 130 on the hilly, tree-lined course. Wilson closed with a 20foot par putt on the 18th after missing the fairway. Brent Delahoussaye and Steve Wheatcroft were a stroke back. Delahoussaye had a 69 a day after matching the Canadian Open record with a 62. Wheatcroft shot a 66. Kevin Sutherland had the best round of the day, tying the tournament record with a career-best 62 to reach 5 under.

EUROPEAN TOUR STOCKHOLM – K.J. Choi shot a 5-under 67 for a one-shot lead after two

rounds of the Scandinavian Masters. Choi had six birdies and an eagle and three bogeys to reach 9-under 135, one stroke ahead of Richard Johnson of Sweden, who had a 66. British Open champion Louis Oosthuizen was one of the overnight leaders, but he slipped to third after a round of 70.

CLERMONT, Ind. (AP) — Ron Hornaday won the NASCAR Trucks Series race at O’Reilly Raceway Park for the third time in four years on Friday. Hornaday, became the first driver to win four major NASCAR races at O’Reilly. He also won the trucks race in 1997, 2007 and 2009. He led 129 of the 200 laps to snap a 22-race winless streak. Kyle Busch was second and Matt Crafton third. High Point University student Austin Dillon was sixth, with points leader Todd Bodine seventh.

EVIAN MASTERS EVIAN-LES-BAINS, France – Mika Miyazato of Japan shot a 5-under 67 for the second-round lead at the Evian Masters. Michelle Wie started the day tied for sixth at 4under, but slipped down the leaderboard at 1-over after a sluggish round (77) that included a quintuple bogey on the 10th hole. Defending champion Ai Miyazato of Japan managed a 72 to stay 3-under overall and six shots off the lead.

NEW YORK (AP) – Investors bought stocks again on the latest reassuring news about the economy. This time, it was about European banks. European regulators, who issued the results of what are called “stress tests” on the banks, said Friday that only a handful would struggle if the continent’s economy weakens. That helped send the Dow Jones industrial average up more than 100 points, which gave the index a two-day gain of more than 300. The latest second-quarter earnings reports also convinced investors that the economic recovery is proceeding. So did announcements that General Electric Co. is raising its dividend and reports that French drug maker Sanofi-Aventis is interested in buying Genzyme Corp. Investors were initially cautious about the stress tests, which measure how well banks would fare if government debt problems and the region’s economy worsened. Europe’s debt issues have sent stocks falling worldwide since April amid concerns they could slow the global economic recovery. There were some concerns in the market that the tests might not have been rigorous enough, because the results were issued after the close of trading in Europe.

Ford posts profit as sales rise

DEARBORN, Mich. (AP) – Ford Motor Co. posted a strong secondquarter profit Friday but trimmed its U.S. sales forecast and predicted weaker results in the second half as the economy slowly recovers. The automaker surprised Wall Street, making $2.6 billion in the quarter as it continued to grab sales from rivals. Ford’s U.S. sales rose 28 percent in the first six months of this year. That’s almost double the pace of industrywide sales. “Overall, our performance this year gives us great confidence going forward,” Ford President and Chief Executive Officer Alan Mulal-

DILBERT

ly said in a conference call with analysts and media. It was Ford’s fifth straight quarterly profit, and the No. 2 U.S. automaker predicted a strong 2010 and even better 2011. But it said it will make less money in the second half of this year because of seasonal plant shutdowns, costs for new product launches and rising prices for raw materials like aluminum. The automaker said U.S. sales, which hit a 30-year low in 2009, remain weak, with many shoppers not yet confident enough about the economy to buy new cars. Ford cut its forecast for total U.S. auto sales to a range of 11.5 million to 12 million.

The company had predicted sales of 11.5 million to 12.5 million cars and trucks. Ford held its third-quarter production forecast steady at 1.27 million cars and trucks worldwide. Mulally said the company is making money in the challenging environment because of strong new products and a leaner, global structure in which more vehicles around the world share parts. While the company lost some sales in western Europe, he said, it made up for it with increased sales in India, China, Brazil and the U.S. “The global business environment remains challenging, but we expect global growth to continue,” Mulally said.

NEW YORK (AP) – Verizon Communications Inc. on Friday said it lost $198 million in the second quarter due to a buyout for 11,000 workers. Excluding the severance costs and other items, earnings beat Wall Street expectations while revenue was slightly lower than analysts had expected. CFO John Killian projected earnings for the rest of year that would be roughly in line with analyst expectations. Its shares rose $1.09, or 4 percent, to $28.09 in morning trading Friday. The nation’s second biggest phone company said it lost the equivalent of 7 cents per share in the April to June period. That compares with net income of $1.48 billion, or 52 cents per share, in the same period last year. Excluding various charges, mainly for the buyouts, earnings would have been about 58 cents per share in the latest quarter. That is 2 cents more than analysts surveyed by Thomson Reuters had expected, on average. Verizon said its revenue slipped 0.3 percent to $26.8 billion from $26.9 billion a year ago, though that was in part because of the one-time effect of a change in accounting for wireless data plans. Without that change, revenue would have grown 0.7 percent, still short of analyst expectations at $27.1 billion. The New York-based company has been laying off workers quickly in the shrinking traditional phone business.

Some insurers stop writing new coverage for kids WASHINGTON (AP) – Some major health insurance companies have stopped issuing certain types of policies for children, an unintended consequence of President Barack Obama’s health care overhaul law, state officials said Friday. Florida Insurance Commissioner Kevin McCarty said in his state UnitedHealthcare and Blue Cross Blue Shield have stopped issuing new policies that cover children individually. Oklahoma Insurance Commissioner Kim Holland said a couple of local insurers in her state have done likewise. The administration reacted sharply to the insurance pullback. “We’re disappointed that a small number of insurance

Bonnie weakens to tropical depression over Gulf MIAMI (AP) – Bonnie has weakened to a tropical depression with winds near 35 mph (55 kph) after crossing Florida. Forecasters with the U.S. National Hurricane Center said the storm was over the Gulf just off Naples, Fla. late Friday. Forecasters said the center of Bonnie came ashore Friday midday near Cutler Bay, about 20 miles south of Miami. Bonnie is expected to strengthen as it moves over the Gulf. The storm is moving west-northwest near 18 mph (30 kph). Meanwhile, ships relaying the sights and sounds from BP’s broken oil well stood fast Friday as the leftovers of Tropical Storm Bonnie blew straight for the spill

Brush fire threatens structures SANTA CLARITA, Calif. – A brush fire that erupted in the hilly Santa Clarita area north of Los Angeles has shut down part of Interstate 5 and is threatening homes. Los Angeles County Fire Department Inspector Sam Padilla said Friday’s fire has burned about 15 acres and is threatening about 30 homes. No evacuations have been ordered. The entire northbound side of I-5 was briefly shut down, but two lanes have been reopened. About 200 firefighters and six waterdropping helicopters are on the scene in Santa Clarita, a city of 177,000 between I-5 and State Route 14.

site, threatening to force a full evacuation that would leave engineers clueless about whether a makeshift cap on the gusher was holding. Vessels connected to deep-sea robots equipped with cameras and seismic devices would be among the last to flee and would ride out the rough weather if possible, retired Coast Guard Adm. Thad Allen said. “If conditions allow, they will remain through the passage of the storm,” Allen said in New Orleans. In a related matter, an alarm system was partially shut down the day the ill-fated oil rig Deepwater Horizon exploded in the Gulf of Mexico, killing 11 workers

and setting off the massive spill, an electronics technician who was aboard told an investigative panel on Friday. Later in Washington, the House Energy and Commerce Committee, which is investigating the spill, asked Transocean Ltd. for documents concerning safety and the condition of equipment on the rig. Technician Mike Williams told the panel that the alarm system was turned on to monitor for fire, explosive gas and toxic gas but that its sound and light alarms had been disabled. Transocean owned the rig, which was being leased by BP PLC. BP is responsible for cleaning up the millions of gallons of oil that have seeped into the Gulf.

White House predicts $1.47 trillion deficit

Mass. Sen. Kerry docks yacht in RI, saving $500,000 BOSTON (AP) – Massachusetts Sen. John Kerry is docking his family’s new $7 million yacht in neighboring Rhode Island, allowing him to avoid paying roughly $500,000 in taxes to his cash-strapped home state. If the Isabel were kept at the 2004 Democratic presidential nominee’s summer vacation home on Nantucket or in Boston Harbor near his city residence, he would be liable for $437,500 in onetime sales tax. He would also have to pay $70,000 in annual excise taxes. Rhode Island repealed those taxes in 1993. That has made the state something of a nautical tax haven. Kerry spokesman David Wade said Friday the boat is being kept at Newport Shipyard not to evade taxes, but “for long-term

friends of the dead woman were holding a car wash to pay for her funeral. “It’s unbelievable,” said Pontiac police Chief Valard S.

WASHINGTON (AP) – New estimates from the White House on Friday predict the budget deficit will reach a record $1.47 trillion this year. The government is borrowing 41 cents of every dollar it spends. That’s actually a little better than the administration predicted in February. The new estimates paint a grim unemployment picture as the economy experiences a relatively jobless recovery. The unemployment rate, presently averaging 9.5 percent, would average 9

percent next year under the new estimates. The Office of Management and Budget report has ominous news for President Barack Obama should he seek re-election in 2012 – a still-high unemployment rate of 8.1 percent. That would be well above normal, which is closer to a rate of 5.5 percent to 6 percent. Private economists don’t think the unemployment rate will drop to those levels until well into this decade. “The U.S. economy still faces strong headwinds,” the OMB report said.

”Isabel,” the 76-foot yacht owned by Democratic Sen. John Kerry of Massachusetts, is undergoing repairs at the Hinckley shipyard in Portsmouth, R.I. maintenance, upkeep and charter purposes.” Wade noted the vessel was designed by Rhode Island boat designer Ted Fontaine and purchased in the state. It was built in New Zealand by Friendship Yachts. A Department of Revenue spokesman said

Kerry would be liable for Massachusetts taxes if he berthed the boat in the Bay State within six months of its purchase. If the Isabel were brought to Massachusetts after that period, the state would have to decide if it wanted to pursue the taxes.

Woman charged in Facebook-feud crash PONTIAC, Mich. (AP) – A Facebook feud between two women who claimed to love the same prison inmate led to a high-speed chase and a crash that critically injured one of the rivals, killed her friend and left the second rival facing murder charges. Torrie Emery was arraigned Friday in Pontiac’s 50th District Court on multiple felonies, as

companies are taking this unwarranted and unnecessary step,” said Jessica Santillo, a spokeswoman for the Health and Human Services department. Starting later this year, the health care overhaul law requires insurers to accept children regardless of medical problems – a major early benefit of the complex legislation. Insurers are worried that parents will wait until kids get sick to sign them up, saddling the companies with unpredictable costs. The major types of coverage for children – employer plans and government programs – are not affected by the disruption. But a subset of policies – those that cover children as individuals – may run into problems.

ing to an earlier police complaint. According to Emery’s family, the dispute was over a 23-yearold man now serving time in a Michigan prison. On Wednesday, Emery was driving when she saw Booth in the passenger seat of a car driven by Alesha Abernathy and started chasing her, Gross said. Emery had her 3-year-old daughter in the car with her.

Police Det. Paul McDougal, who was in an unmarked squad car, saw both vehicles rush by at speeds approaching 100 mph, Gross said. Before McDougal could reach them – and while a panicked Booth was on the phone with a police dispatcher – Abernathy ran a red light and plowed into a dump truck, knocking it onto its side but not injuring the truck’s driver.

Small plane crashes in Lake Michigan; pilot rescued AP

A fire rustling from a natural gas well explosion burns in Cheswick, Pa., northeast of Pittsburgh on Friday. Police reported two persons were killed.

2 killed in gas well blast near Pittsburgh the fire, which was still burning late Friday afternoon. A three-man crew, employed by a maintenance contractor, were working on oil tanks at the well in Indiana Township when the blast happened at 9:50 a.m., rocketing one of the tanks more than 70 yards into the woods, said Allegheny County Emergency Director Robert Full. Two of the workers were killed.

The exact cause has not been detailed in full, but state officials believe “people were welding at the site and there was an explosion and the well caught fire,� said Helen Humphries, a spokeswoman for the state Department of Environmental Protection. The resulting fire spewed thick, black smoke and scorched the workers’ truck, melting the tires.

Palin fiance Levi Johnston to make music video debut LOS ANGELES (AP) – Levi Johnston will make his music video debut as a lover whose romance is thwarted by his girlfriend’s disapproving mother, according to a Universal Music Group record label and Johnston’s attorney. Johnston, 20, who is Bristol Palin’s fiance, has agreed to appear in the video with singer-songwriter Brittani Senser next month in Los Angeles. The project is based on the song “After Love� by Senser, 26, a sultry-looking R&B and pop performer from Minneapolis. “He’s looking forward to doing it,� Rex Butler, Johnston’s attorney in Anchorage, Alaska, said Friday. “It will give him an opportunity to act a little bit in front of a camera.� Asked if there might be concerns about Sarah Palin’s reaction to the project, But-

Gabor, 93, initially appeared to be recovering after the hip surgery Monday at Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center.

Officer Nathaniel Parks said the plane went down shortly after 10 a.m. a few miles off the shore of Ludington, a resort town on Michigan’s west coast. The pilot was pulled from the water by the boater about two hours later and was taken to a local hospital where he is in good condition. Water temperatures and conditions will have a lot to do with whether other survivors are found, Ludington Coast Guard Station Chief James Hendricks said. Waves in the area of the crash were 2 to 4 feet high, and the wind speed was about 18 mph. Hendricks said the temperatures likely were in the 70s.

CHESWICK, Pa. (AP) – An oil storage tank at a natural gas well exploded Friday morning, killing two workers, leaving a third man remarkably uninjured and sparking a smoky well fire that smoldered into the late afternoon.

LUDINGTON, Mich. (AP) – The pilot of a small plane on its way to the Mayo Clinic with four others on board was rescued by a boater in Lake Michigan on Friday hours after the plane lost power and crashed just a few miles from shore, authorities said. A search for the four passengers was under way. The pilot, who was not identified, told the boater who pulled him from the water that the others – three men and one woman – were still in the water, Mason County Undersheriff Tom Trenner told reporters. Authorities will search for the four “as long as we can,� Trenner said. U.S. Coast Guard Petty

BY THE CAREY BROTHERS ON THE HOUSE

W

ith temperatures rising and staying high, it’s time to consider some cost-effective ways to beat the heat. Begin preparing now for next year so you don’t have to go through again what you have endured this summer. The least obvious way to cool off involves help from Mother Nature. Large shade trees have a profound affect on the interior temperature of your home. Make a simple sketch of your home showing its location on your lot. It is important to include a north arrow or at least where the sun rises in relation to your home. Show the plan to someone at your local nursery or to a landscape professional. They can recommend a size and type of tree, and optimal planting locations. Be careful not to overplant. Too much shade can block out the sun during the cooler months and result in mold and mildew in and around the house especially on walls that face north. Decorative window awnings constructed of aluminum or canvas are another way to ward off the sun. A negative with awnings, as with trees, is they can make the interior of the home dark and uninviting. A retractable awning, that can be raised when not needed, makes most sense. Insulation is a must for every home. Floor, wall and ceiling insulation are excellent ways to combat heat. During the winter, the insulation will hold the heat in. Insulation can be added quite economically, especially if you install it yourself. Many local utility companies offer rebates or low interest loans as incentives to install insulation because it improves the energy efficiency of the home. While insulation R-Values will vary regionally, a median guideline would be R-19 below floors, R-13 in exterior walls and R-30 to 38 in attic space. Many older homes either contain no insulation or an amount far below the current recommended value. Frequently, the existing insulation can remain and be added to, as in an attic, for example. Exterior walls can easily be retrofitted with insulation which is blown in through small penetrations made in the homes exterior at each stud bay. Along with adding insulation, all exterior cracks, penetrations and gaps between windows, doors and other openings should be caulked or sealed with expanding foam. Use an exterior grade paintable latex caulk with

COOL

silicone. Large penetrations can be filled with expanding spray foam. As an added measure, all exterior doors and windows should also be weather-stripped. Homes constructed with flat roofs where no attic exists can have rigid foam insulation applied above the roof decking and below the roof cover. This work can be done when it becomes necessary to replace the roof cover. Reflective paints can also be applied to many flat roofs. A more expensive alternative, but one which will pay big dividends, is replacement windows. Upgrading from traditional single-pane windows to windows with insulated glass will make a huge difference on the amount of heat allowed to enter the home. Options such as low-E glass, tinting and reflective

Insulation, weather-stripping, windows ventilation are keys. film will add to its efficiency. Again, check with your local utility company for cost incentives. If window replacement is not in the budget, reflective window film is a less expensive alternative. Polyester sheets available in varying shades are applied to the glass. Due to better adhesives and superior material, today’s reflective window films are finer than those of yesteryear which often left a homeowner with a wrinkled or scratched mess. Many of the problems associated with this product are cosmetic and can be linked to faulty installation by the do-it-yourselfer. For this reason, much of this type of product has been pulled from home improvement centers, and manufacturers are recommending professional installation. Film can reduce inside temperatures up to ten degrees or more and will even help to

protect window coverings, furniture and floor coverings from fading. And, unlike shade trees and awnings, the reflective window film will not darken the home. Window screens consisting of dense vinyl fabric are an excellent way to reduce heat. These are similar to traditional window screens, but the screening is installed over the entire window, rather than just over the operable section. This is an excellent alternative, but in some cases can take away from the appearance of the home since the screen material hides any decorative window features like grids. Ventilating the attic can do wonders to reduce the hot-box effect. The interior of an attic can reach temperatures well over one-hundred degrees, which can negatively impact the living spaces below. Ceiling insulation will help, but can be aided considerably by exhausting the hot air to the exterior. Attic ventilation can be achieved in a number of ways. The most common is the passive type where vents are installed at the eaves and the ridge of the roof. This is the type of ventilation that is required by most building codes and is minimal. With a ridge vent, the roofing material is removed at the roof’s ridge and approximately two inches of roof sheathing is removed on either side of the ridge along its entire length. Ridge vent material constructed of fabric, plastic or metal is then placed over the new opening and roofing material is replaced. This method is most effective when ventilation exists at the eaves (overhangs). Other ventilation at midpoints, such as gable vents, should be blocked when a ridge vent is installed. Wind-driven turbines are another means of passive ventilation. Active types of attic ventilation, using thermostatically controlled electric attic fans, are very effective. The thermostat can be set to turn the fan on when the attic reaches a certain temperature and will continue to operate until the attic has reached the desired temperature. More than one attic fan may be required depending upon the size and configuration of the roof. An advantage of the passive systems is that they operate without a power source. However, an electric attic fan uses only a fraction of the energy that an air conditioning system requires and will supplement the air conditioner, allowing it to labor less and save energy.

Buy or lease: Use a Realtor M

ost people are aware of how important it is to use a Realtor when they are buying or selling a property, but did you know that it is just as important to use a Realtor when you are looking to lease a property? All Realtors must uphold a strict code of ethics and must deal fairly with all parties involved in a transaction. If a Realtor is involved in showing you a property for lease, you can be reasonably sure that the property you are considering is actually for rent. You may wonder why a property would be advertised for rent when it is actually not a rental property. Let me explain how this can happen. I recently had a call from someone saying they had seen a house being advertised as rental property that we have advertised for sale on the Internet.

I knew that this house was not available for rent and informed the caller of this. The next day, I received a call the owner of REAL ESTATE from this property that Ken cleared up exactly Wall what was happen■■■ ing. He explained to me that while checking his mail, someone drove up in front of his house and said they had been trying to rent the property. They went on to tell him that they had been emailing back and forth with someone who had been offering to rent them this property for several days. Apparently this potential renter was told that the house was for rent because the owner had to leave the house

Debbie Ayscue, Gail Hayworth join Allen Tate Company SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE

HIGH POINT – Allen Tate Realtors (www.allentate. com), the Carolinas’ leading real estate company, is proud to announce that Debbie Ayscue and Gail Hayworth have joined the High Point office. “We are delighted to have agents of such high caliber as Debbie and Gail. Debbie and Gail exemplify professionalism in every aspect of the real estate transaction. We are proud to attract such talented professionals and know that our cli-

ents will be served well,” said Jeannene Poarch, branch manager of Allen Tate Realtors High Point office. Hayworth and Ayscue joins a staff of 24 licensed Realtors in the High Point office and a large network of licensed Realtors throughout the Carolinas. Since 1957, Allen Tate Realtors has focused on the needs of consumers by providing one-stop shopping with choices in branches located in communities throughout the Carolinas.

vacant due to being deployed. He was told that they were willing to lease the house for a very low amount because their main concern was having someone in the home to take care of it. They were also told that they would need to wire a deposit into his bank account to hold the property because they had several other people who were interested – and whoever was the first to get the deposit to him would be the ones to rent the house. The potential renter decided to make a drive by the house before sending the deposit and happened to run into the real owner. The owner then proceeded to call me and tell me what was happening. The potential renter forwarded to the actual owner the emails between themselves and the scammer; the real owner forwarded them on to me.

This potential renter came very close to losing a large amount of money to a scammer. Had he been dealing with a Realtor when looking for a property to rent, he would not have wasted a lot of time and effort on something that, in fact, turned out to be too good to be true. If you are looking for a property to rent, there are many Realtors in the greater High Point area who specialize in helping people find suitable homes. Call one today. KEN WALL is president of the High Point Regional Association of Realtors, one of more than 1,800 local boards and associations nationwide that comprise the National Association of Realtors (NAR). The Association is an advocate for property rights and the “Voice of Real Estate” in the Triad area of North Carolina. HPRAR represents more than 700 members in all aspects of the residential and commercial real estate industry.

Off the charts Mortgage rates remain at lowest level in decades WASHINGTON (AP) – Mortgage rates were unchanged last week at the lowest point in decades, but it hasn’t been enough to jump-start the housing market. Government-sponsored mortgage buyer Freddie Mac said last week the average rate for 30-year fixed loans this week was 4.57 percent. That’s the same as a week earlier and the lowest since Freddie Mac began tracking rates in 1971. The last time home loan rates were lower was the 1950s, when most mortgages lasted just 20 or 25 years.

Rates have fallen since the spring. Investors, concerned with the European debt crisis, have poured money into the safety of Treasury bonds. Treasury yields have fallen and so have mortgage rates, which tend to track yields on U.S. debt. However, low rates have yet to fuel home sales and have sparked only a modest increase in refinancing activity. The housing market has slowed since federal tax credits for homebuyers expired at the end of April. And the latest de-

cline in mortgage rates is unlikely to boost the market. Mortgage rates have hovered near record lows for some time, so most people who can afford to buy homes or qualify to refinance their loans have already done so in the past 18 months. Doing so again wouldn’t be worth the cost for most. Meanwhile, millions of Americans are unable to take advantage of the low rates. Many have seen the value of their homes plummet and have little or no equity.

Make the most of an involuntary home sale T

hey were a dual-income family who lived in a majestic colonial in an affluent suburb. But when the husband lost his executive job – and they had to rely solely on the wife’s salary – their financial picture changed dramatically. A sharp-penciled analysis of their family budget made one thing clear: They’d have to sell their 4,000-square-foot house and move to a smaller place. Their story illustrates the sober reality that many now face in an economy with high unemployment. When a job is lost, downsizing is often necessary. And those who cope best are usually people who move forward quickly toward a sale, rather than waiting until mortgage payments are late and foreclosure looms. “At the end of the day, proactive people fare much better than those who go into denial after a financial setback. If you must sell your house, it’s obviously better to do so before your problems deepen,” says Eric Tyson, a personal finance expert and co-author of “House Selling for Dummies.” Clearly, most people view the need to sell a large family home as a disappointing requirement. But there are sometimes advantages for those who must downsize to a smaller place in a more modest community. This was one of the surprising discoveries made by the family – Tyson’s former neighbors – who had to sell their colonial house. Though they had to trade down from

SMART MOVES Ellen Martin ■■■

their spacious place to a house half the size, the family found that the schools in their new neighborhood were a better fit for their three children. Buying the smaller house also liberated the family from some of the financial stresses they faced in the large colonial and reduced the demands on them for house up-

keep. Of course, there are always drawbacks to involuntary downsizing. Smaller quarters mean you must adjust to less elbow room. And any teenagers in your family are likely to complain about leaving the school their friends attend. Whatever the pros and cons in your case, you’re likely to fare better if you take a strategic approach. Here are pointers: • Take control of your own destiny. Sid Davis, a real estate broker and author of “A Survival Guide to Selling a Home,” says many people who project that they’ll be unable to meet their mortgage payments wait too long to make the tough decision to sell. Several government and privatesector programs are now available to assist homeowners trying to hang onto their homes in the wake of a financial setback. But assuming you’ve explored

these programs and know you’re ineligible, Davis suggests you hire a reputable real estate agent to list your property and try to sell it as promptly as possible. “Those who wait to get their house on the market often fall back on their payments to the point that they can no longer dig out. One of the big risks is that your credit will be ruined,” he says. • Explore your alternatives for the future. One strategy to help smooth the pain of your transition through an involuntary home sale is to start checking into other neighborhoods where you might live. The goal here is to select the best community you can afford. (A trustworthy mortgage lender can help you to determine how big a mortgage payment you can afford. But the lender’s opinion is no substitute for an in-depth analysis of your household expenses.) The main advantage to exploring neighborhoods early is that “it’s always better to envision what’s ahead,” Davis says. “You might be pleasantly surprised by some of the attributes in the new area.” However, he urges you to resist the temptation to tour specific homes until you have a sales contract in hand for your old place. Still, by choosing your target community early in the process, you’ll be ready to scout for a specific property when the time is right.

“You’ll know which neighborhoods feel comfortable and which don’t,” Davis says. • Become engaged with activities in the neighborhood of your choice. Even before you’ve sold your present home, you may wish to start meeting people in your target neighborhood. As Tyson says, developing a few fledgling friendships can help smooth your transition. “One good way for you or your children to meet people is to join a sports league or so some volunteer work in the new area,” he says. • Create some happy farewell memories. Davis says one way to generate happy memories is to have a farewell party, inviting those closest to you from your neighborhood, family or friendship base. What about posing the partygoers in some of your favorite settings around your home, like your patio or family room, and then taking their pictures? When later you review these photos, you’ll probably realize that the people most important to you have no less affection for you just because you’ve moved to a less-affluent neighborhood. “Yes, moving from an area where you’ve lived a lot of years can be traumatic. But it can also help you reorder your priorities,” Davis says. TO CONTACT Ellen James Martin, e-mail her at ellenjamesmartin gmail.com.

Don’t just chase rates, find the right mortgage NEW YORK (AP) – For those who can qualify, it’s one of the best times to get a mortgage. Last week, rates for 30-year fixed-rate loans dropped to 4.57 percent, the lowest level on records dating back to 1971, Freddie Mac said. And for some who missed out on the government’s homebuying tax credit, the rates may more than make up for that lost $8,000. “A tax credit is immediate

gratification,” said Leonard Baron, a professor of finance at San Diego State University, “but long-term, with rates this low, you can get much more value.” But which loan is right for you? The mortgage game has changed since the housing bust and more rules have been and are being added. One factor is for sure now: Your credit score should be at least 620 or you’ll

have a hard time finding a loan. What varies is how much you have for a downpayment. Buyer No. 1: You have a 20 percent downpayment and expect to retire in the house. • Take out a 30-year fixed-rate loan, the most popular type of mortgage. The interest rate stays the same over the life of the loan, and right now that rate is at historical lows. “This loan is for someone

interested in stability and security,” said John Stearns, mortgage banker at American Fidelity Mortgage Services Inc. in Mequon, Wis. Buyer No. 2: You have a 20 percent downpayment, but plan to move into another home down the road. • Consider a five-, seven- or 10-year adjustable rate loan, which has a fixed rate for a set period and then adjusts higher

after that time. These loans carry a lower initial interest rate than the 30-year fixed-rate, so you save money over the fixedrate period. After the fixed-rate period ends, borrowers typically refinance into another loan to avoid the adjustable rate. Rates on five-year adjustablerate mortgages averaged 3.75 percent last week. That was the lowest on Freddie Mac’s records.
