Laying it on the Line Small business owners face risks to survive BY ELIOT DUKE Staff Writer

Editor’s Note: The following is the first in a three-part series on the struggles of small business owners.

When Stamey Hardin got news that his General Motors dealership — one that had been part of the Thomasville community for more than half a century — was earmarked to “go away,” he had a difficult decision to make. Hardin could either fold up shop and move away from the Chair City or stick it out and make something work rather than leave another empty building in a community he cares about. Thanks to a partnership with NAPA and a new direction with Carolina Autocare, Hardin is staying in Thomasville and keeping the dozen employees he still has, but it wasn’t so easy.

On Thursday, Hardin joined several other local contemporaries at a meeting of the N.C. House Select Committee on Small Business, chaired by House majority leader Hugh Holliman and made up of a dozen representatives from around the state, to voice their opinions about what needs to be done in order to help those who are putting their own financial futures on the line to save jobs. “At one time we employed over 60 people and had $40 million in revenues,” Hardin told the committee. “It’s a long slide from where we were 15 years ago to today.” Once Hardin made the decision not to go forward without General Motors, he realized he needed capital. While his dealership possessed hundreds of thousands of dollars in assets, Hardin still needed more capital, even after partnering with NAPA. Despite years of financial security within

the community, acquiring loans proved difficult. Making matters even worse for Hardin was he didn’t know where to go for help, so he tried the Small Business Administration (SBA). “We didn’t know where to turn or what to do,” said Hardin. “I turned to the SBA and that’s an uphill battle as well. It sounds good that they’re there for you, but that didn’t quite work out for us.” Hardin’s next move was to ask local banks for help. Unfortunately, Hardin was told his business was a startup and banks were shying away from such ventures. Luckily for Hardin, a local bank did work with him, but it came at a price. “I was fortunate they were able to work with me in acquiring a small loan,” Hardin said. “I still had to personally sign off on it, so

Hannah Wyatt took the phrase “think big” seriously. What started out as a brainstorming session for a dorm hall project soon blossomed into a fullfledged food drive striving to break a record. But not just any record — the Guinness World Record for the largest food drive by a non-charitable organization in 24 hours at one location. North Carolina School

of Science and Mathematics will hold an on-site food drive on Saturday, March 20, from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. The virtual aspect of the food drive — which allowed people to donate food and money online — will continue until Thursday. “We had no idea that it would get this big,” said Wyatt, a senior at NCSSM, a resident of Thomasville and a former student at Ledford Senior High School. “It was cooked up in a dorm room.”

The food drive, which will benefit the Food Bank of Central & Eastern North Carolina, needs to collect more than 509,147 pounds of nonperishable food to beat the record, which is currently held by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints in partnership with the Calgary InterFaith Food Bank. So far, NCSSM has raised $28,800 from the online food drive and individual monetary donations. For every $1 the school raises, Food Bank of Cen-

HEALTH

Study: Aspirin lowers return of breast cancer LIFELONG HEALTH

DR. DAVID LIPSCHITZ Syndicated Columnist

A recent study published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology showed that women with breast cancer who were taking a low dose of aspirin had a 46 percent lower risk of recurrent disease than those who did not take the easily accessible, over-thecounter medication. Researchers from Harvard Medical School studied 4,164 nurses, ranging in age from 30 to 55 who developed breast cancer between 1976 and

2002. The participants were followed until 2006. Approximately half of the patients were taking aspirin to reduce their risk of heart disease. Although the dose taken was not documented, the majority took the equivalent of one baby aspirin (81 milligrams) daily. Researchers were surprised to find that not only did the women taking aspirin have a lower risk of recurrence, but the risk of death from breast cancer was decreased as well. Aspirin belongs to a class of drugs called nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs or NSAIDs. Motrin (ibuprofen), Aleve (naproxen) and Celebrex (celecoxib) are also NSAIDs. This type of drug is an analgesic used to relieve pain and to suppress the immune system -- an effect that is often employed to treat patients with inflammatory disease, such as rheumatoid arthritis. At

a low dose, aspirin also interferes with the ability of platelets to clump together, which has been shown to significantly reduce risk of heart attack and stroke. For patients at risk of heart disease, cholesterol deposits in arteries can increase the incidence of platelet clumping, an initial step in the development of a blood clot that can lead to heart attacks and stroke. Interestingly, the benefits of aspirin on heart attack and stroke risk are much better in men than women, where aspirin has been shown to have little effect in those under 65 and only reduces stroke risk in women over 65 years of age. Numerous studies have shown that NSAIDs appear to prevent the development of cancer. In the early 1970s, research revealed that taking NSAIDs suppressed the development of polyps in patients at high risk of colon cancer, and in

some cases even caused polyps to regress. In another study, patients who had been diagnosed with polyps took aspirin to reduce the risk of recurrence. It has also been suggested that NSAIDs may reduce the risk of cancer of the esophagus, stomach, breast, prostate and lung. However, NSAIDs have not been widely promoted as cancer-combating medications because the research has not been 100 percent positive. In 1996, a clinical trial called the Physicians’ Health Study found that taking aspirin did not reduce the risk of colorectal cancer. Nearly a decade later, a study published in Journal of the American Medical Association followed thousands of women participating in the Women’s Health Study. This study found that aspirin did not prevent the development of breast cancer. While the final word on NSAIDs is not in,

the evidence seems to indicate that aspirin may have a protective effect against cancer. Consequently, it is appropriate that, irrespective of age, anyone at high risk of or diagnosed with breast, colon, prostate or lung cancer should take 81 milligrams of aspirin daily. The other NSAIDs may also be effective in reducing cancer risk, but they should not be used as cancer prevention unless more compelling evidence is presented documenting significant value. Although NSAIDs are easily accessible and inexpensive, the drugs are not without side effects. Even at a low dose, aspirin can cause significant irritation of the stomach and increase risk of bleeding. Approximately 1.2 people per 1,000 taking aspirin will have a major stomach bleed annually, a risk that is much higher than the risk of dying of any can-

cer. Celebrex does have a lower risk of bleeding, but it may increase heart attack and stroke risk. All the NSAIDs can lead to high blood pressure and kidney disease. For men over the age of 50 and women over 65, the risk of heart attack and strokes is so high that the benefits of taking aspirin outweigh the risks. As always, it is important to discuss every element of preventive therapy with your primary care physician. Complementing healthy lifestyle changes with the appropriate medications can mean health and happiness for years to come.

TMC nurses present program on cancer Allen joins Thomasville Family Practice TIMES STAFF REPORT

Thomasville Medical Center’s Women and Children staff nurses, Marcy Shipwash, RN and Tracy Hicks, RN, recently presented a program on ovarian, breast and colon cancers in women to the Home Life Dept of the Thomasville Women’s Club. Some of the information they shared includes: • Colon cancers can be well advanced before they are detected. The most effective prevention of colon cancer is early

detection and removal of precancerous colon polyps before they turn cancerous. Even in cases where cancer has already developed, early detection still significantly improves the chances of a cure by surgically removing the cancer before the disease spreads to other organs. Diets high in vegetables and high-fiber foods such as whole-grain breads and cereals may rid the bowel of these carcinogens and help reduce the risk of cancer. • Breast cancer in the most common form of

cancer for women aside to skin cancer. It’s remarkable to think that one digital picture could save your life, but the instant detailed images help detect breast cancer at an earlier stage. It may be the most important picture a woman ever has taken. Mammography screening is still considered the gold standard for early detection.

FROM PAGE 1 From page 1 I’ve got skin in the game like we all do. It seems to me, there needs to another way to help small businesses and those who are trying to maintain jobs in the community. There needs to be other avenues available for us and we need to know where those avenues are. � Then there’s the matter of health care. With fewer employees, Hardin told the committee that health insurance “isn’t readily available� and it’s difficult to obtain group plans with only 12 employees. “When you’ve got 50 to 60 employees, there’s no problem, but when you go to 10 to 12, they look at you differently,� said Hardin. “Group insurance is out there, but it’s costly and you have to have 75 percent participation from the employees.� Helping people like Hardin is where Raleigh comes in and the House Select Committee on Small Business’ focus is finding those answers. “We just don’t do enough for small businesses,� Holliman said. “You always hear when counties are recruiting large businesses, but you never hear about anything being done for the mom and pop stores. The intent [of the meeting] was to hear the concerns from these businesses and we heard it loud and clear — there’s a lack of capital and a lack of access to capital and health care costs concerns. “It’s really difficult for small businesses. They really put their heart and soul into their business. They use credit lines like their homes, personal equity lines, credit cards, whatever they can to keep their business going. Small business are different from major corporations, it’s like a family working together. They know their employees, their families and when they lay off somebody they have to look that person in the eye and feel their pain. Every time they lay somebody off, that person goes on unemployment and costs

the state more money. It’s a spiral that we need to turn around.� In the state, there’s an estimated 200,000 small businesses, and Holliman feels that if each one could hire just one person it would be a huge boost for the economy. In order to do so, measures have to be taken to alleviate the stress on small businesses. One of those measures is a recently passed tax credit for small businesses who provide health insurance in the form of $250 per employee per year. The tax credit, however, isn’t much use to a company suffering losses. “If your small business isn’t making money, the tax credit is of no benefit,� said Holliman. “That’s part of what we’re looking at there.� Holliman added that the committee is considering subsidizing low income workers on small business payrolls who don’t have insurance. Any action there, however, is pending on what the federal government does with health care reform. “Someone making $80,000 a year should be able to afford insurance, but a lot of low income workers can’t afford it even if they have to pay 40 or 50 percent of a premium,� Holliman said. “We’re somewhat holding on that until we hear what happens on the federal level.� A key source for answers, Holliman said, is community colleges. Every community college in the state has a small business office, but small businesses don’t always use them. It didn’t appear that anyone involved in the meeting Thursday knew where to go for real help, and that’s where the problem starts.

LISA M. WALL Editor editor@tvilletimes.com • ZACH KEPLEY Sports Editor tvillesports@yahoo.com

The Democrats won’t talk about this provision BY MONA CHAREN Syndicated Columnist “You’ve heard about the controversies within the bill, the process about the bill, one or the other. But I don’t know if you have heard that it is legislation for the future ... We have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it, away from the fog of controversy.” — Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, March 9, 2010 Pity the Democrats. They just can’t get their message out. Not with a charismatic president (who has delivered 52 speeches on the subject), control of both houses of Congress, the gooey enthusiasm of 90 percent of the press, and more than a year of ceaseless agitation. Their efforts have been thwarted, so they imagine, by “misinformation,” “distortion” and the “special interests.” So influential are these dark forces that the leadership cannot shout over them. Speaker Pelosi must pass the grossly unpopular bill in order to get the peace and quiet she needs to explain its virtues. In fact, on the most important variable about this legislation — cost — Americans see through the optimistic projections. Asked by Rasmussen whether the health care plan will cost more than currently estimated, 81 percent of voters said yes and 66 percent said it was “very likely” to exceed projections. Doubtless the Democrats can explain that Americans believe this only because they’ve been duped by lies and clever ad campaigns, not because 60 years of recent history demonstrate conclusively that government programs, particularly open-ended entitlements, nearly always exceed projected costs. In 1966, Medicare cost taxpayers $3 billion. The House Ways and Means Committee estimated that by 1990, we might be spending as much as $12 billion. The actual 1990 figure? $107 billion. In 1987, Congress estimated that the Medicaid DSH (disproportionate share hospital) costs would be less than $1 billion in 1992. The actual cost? $17 billion. But since Pelosi is so eager for us to know the details, let’s indulge her. Among the specifications of the House bill that passed last November are several sections that mandate racial and ethnic quotas for medical schools and other federal contractors. As Allan Favish reported in The American Thinker, the bill specifies that the secretary of Health and Human Services, “In awarding grants or contracts under this section ... shall give preference to entities that have a demonstrated record of ... training individuals who are from underrep-

resented minority groups or disadvantaged backgrounds.” This, along with other provisions, is broad enough to cover every medical, nursing, dental school and teaching hospital in the country and guarantees the institutionalization of racial, sex, and ethnic quotas in perpetuity (though the use of the word “underrepresented” before “minority” ensures that the quotas will not apply to Asians or Jews). The rationale for quotas, insofar as there is one, is that African-Americans and Hispanics have, on average, poorer health than other groups. Liberals assume that these disparities are the result of discrimination or lack of access to health care rather than other factors like poverty, eating habits, heredity, and fitness. If medical and dental schools are required to admit more minority applicants, newly minted minority professionals will tend to those “underserved” populations. Of course, medical and dental schools have been practicing affirmative action for decades, but they’ve had trouble recruiting large numbers of minorities. Part of the problem is that African-Americans do not tend to gravitate to math and science (the solution to which is to be found in families and schools). Still, for the past few decades, less-qualified minorities have been offered spots in medical schools, with the result that: 1) Those minority professionals who would have qualified without affirmative action bear a stigma, and 2) less-qualified minorities fail licensing exams at much higher rates than their classmates. Is it a service to the African-American or Hispanic communities to provide physicians and dentists who are less capable than others? Will it improve health outcomes to be treated by less-qualified professionals? President Obama asked this week whether anyone could oppose “holding insurance companies accountable,” and “bringing down costs for everyone.” Funny, he doesn’t ask whether we object to this: a provision on “maintaining, collecting and presenting federal data on race and ethnicity,” in order to “facilitate and coordinate identification and monitoring ... of health disparities to inform program and policy efforts to reduce such disparities.” That’s an engraved invitation to social engineering. But then, even to mention it is probably contributing to the “fog of controversy.” To find out more about Mona Charen and read features by other Creators Syndicate columnists and cartoonists, visit www.creators.com.

A ‘Faith Free’ challenge to people of faith VIEWPOINT

D.G. MARTIN N.C. Columnist “Was Noah real?” one on my grandchildren, then in pre-school, asked. It should be an easy answer. Yes. His story is in the Bible. But, someday the grandchild will confront hard facts about the impossibility of stuffing two of every kind of animal into one boat—just as other mature believers have had to do. Not so quick with the easy answer. Maybe I should have given the classic “Santa Claus” answer, given by newspaperman Francis Church when asked if Santa Claus was real, “Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus [or Noah]. He exists as certainly as love and generosity and devotion exist ...” What did I do? I hedged a little, and said I thought Noah was real, but not with the same fervor that Church generated to affirm Santa’s existence. If it is hard for people of faith to answer children’s questions about God and God’s story, it can be even more challenging for “faithfree” adults to respond appropriately to those questions from their children.

That challenge was the motivation for North Carolina author Andrew Park’s new book, “Between a Church and a Hard Place: One FaithFree Father’s Struggle to Understand What it Means to be Religious (or Not).” The resulting book could be welcome help for any parents, whether believers or faith free, who want to share their values and beliefs with their children, if, in the end, they want their children to be prepared, responsible, and free to make their own decisions about faith. Park’s book begins, “My son was three years old the first time I heard him say ‘God.’ He didn’t get it from me.” Park describes his panic as he and his wife sat on the couch listening to their son bring up this unwelcome word. “I wanted to grab it out of the air and gently shove it back into his mouth for a few more years.” A little later, Park overhears his budding evangelist son talking to his one-year old sister, ‘Hey, did you know that God made us? ... And when we die, we go back to Him?...Isn’t that so cool?’” Park describes his reaction: “I lingered by the door a moment, expecting a return of the panic that had visited me on the couch. But it never showed. In its place, a different feeling arose, something vaguely happy, maybe even hopeful. For a moment, I felt his wonder at the idea of a benevolent creator just waiting to welcome us back into His loving, secure embrace. I understood his comfort at the notion of a grand plan

for our existence. When you put it that way, it is so cool. I’ve just never believed it.” His son’s encounter with God sent Park on an odyssey to find the origins and the underpinnings of his own lack of faith. He takes his readers with him to the tiny town of Falcon, near Fayetteville, where his great grandfather, Julius Culbreth, is still honored as one of the founders of the modern Pentecostal Holiness Church; to a serious discussion with his brother, whose teenage conversion to evangelical Christianity led his “faith free” parents to hire a deprogrammer to attempt to reverse the conversion; to participation in a small support and worship group that was part of the ministry of a modern conservative mega-church; and to thoughtful study and reflection about the role religion can play in enriching the lives of so many people. Nevertheless, Andrew Park remains “faith free.” But, whatever their religious views, those who read his book and take the journey with him will be challenged to examine their beliefs or lack thereof — and find the renewal that comes from an honest self-appraisal. Best of all, Park’s openness and humor make this very serious topic a rich reading pleasure. D.G. Martin will moderate a panel on Western North Carolina’s New Economy on March 29 from 7:15-8:45 at the AdvangeWest Economic Summit at Pack Place in downtown Asheville. Details at www.advantagewest.

Letters to the Editor To the Editor Just as the effects of a challenging economy are felt by families in every community, cancer, too, has a far-reaching impact. No matter how the stock market is performing or what the current unemployment rate may be, there are still many people battling a cancer diagnosis and many others who are lending support alongside loved ones every day. These realities make the dollars donated and volunteer hours devoted to the American Cancer Society — a part of Davidson County for many years — critically important. Local volunteers are a huge part of a nationwide effort to save lives from cancer, but additional people are needed

for the progress to continue. Plans are under way for the Society’s annual fundraiser, Relay For Life, which will be held at Thomasville High School in May. The money raised at Relay enables the American Cancer Society to deliver on its mission of helping people stay well, helping people get well, finding cures and fighting back against the disease. Relay provides the Society with money to support vital, cutting-edge cancer research, provides cancer patients with local services, publishes lifesaving literature on cancer prevention, detection and tobacco control; and develops a new generation of medicines that help those battling cancer.

BY ZACH KEPLEY Sports Editor In basketball, Taylor Hallman is known for hitting the 3-pointer. The three she put on the scoreboard Monday only counted as one, but it amounted for a lot more. Tied in the final minute, Hallman dribbled through two defenders and ripped a left-footed shot far post, scoring the winning goal in a 3-2 East Davidson win over visiting Randleman at the Brown Middle School soccer field. The victory was East’s first of the year as they improve to 1-2. “We just got lucky and got one in right before the final whistle,” said East coach Paul McIntyre. “She [Hallman] is one of my better players and has very good ball control. I wish I could get her to carry the ball more like that. That was with her left foot, too, so that makes it even more special.” Randleman made EDHS work for the win, scoring the first goal of the game two minutes in. That quickly left the young Golden Eagles in a very early hole. Though East controlled the game and kept the ball on its half of the field for much of the opening 40 minutes, they could not seem to tickle the twine in the back of the goal. Haley Grimsley helped them to finally break through in the 21st minute, breaking away from the Tiger defense and firing a shot far post to tie the game at 1-1. Randleman broke the tie with a goal just under two minutes left in the first half, grabbing a 2-1 lead. Kori Shadrick got the equalizer for the Golden Eagles in the second half, taking advantage of congestion in front of the goal. Hallman sent a free ball into the middle and Grimsley attacked the Randleman goalie. A collision ensued, and the

to finish eighth in the nation. Justin Glover had a game-high 21 points on his way to earning Alltournament honors. “I am proud of the way we competed,” said coach Matt Ridge. “We were just a few possessions away from winning all three of our games. We proved that we could compete with some of the best teams in the country.” DCCC finished the year 29-7. “This team has set a high standard for future teams to follow,” said Ridge.

For fans of Penske Racing, the March 7 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race at Atlanta Motor Speedway was, in the words of Charles Dickens, the best of times, and the worst of times. Kurt Busch was first across the start/finish line to win the race, mere moments after his teammate, Brad Keselowski, went airborne and hit the retaining wall after receiving a “nudge” from Carl Edwards. The tap came in retaliation for contact between the two drivers earlier in the race, which took Edwards out of contention. Clips of the incident have been replayed so many times that it’s starting to resemble the annual A Christmas Story marathon on TNT, complete with schoolyard rivalries, pragmatic authority figures and a protagonist who reached his breaking point in a most dramatic, and nationally-televised, manner. NASCAR has been riding the crest of a veritable tsunami of media attention since the race. Fingers are being pointed in so many different directions that we’re all basically spinning around in circles at this point trying to figure out where we are. It hardly seems possible that anyone could be unaware of what happened, but just in case, here’s a brief recap. At the Talladega race back in the spring of 2009, contact between the two drivers sent Edwards’ car sailing through the air into the catch fence. In Atlanta, the two cars touched again, sending Edwards to the garage and cost-

Duke fends off pesky Yellow Jackets, 65-61 BY BRYAN STRICKLAND Durham Herald Sun

GAME REPORT DEADLINES: Monday-Friday 9 p.m. tvillesports@yahoo.com

GREENSBORO — From the first minute of Sunday’s ACC Tournament championship game, it looked like it was only a matter of time before the Duke Blue Devils would win yet another title. Then suddenly, in the

final minute, what had seemed inevitable nearly slipped away. “In a game like this, the team that is winning is hoping the game will hurry up and end, and the team that’s losing gets loose and starts doing whatever it takes,” Duke junior Nolan Smith said. “Finally we said,

‘Let’s win this game.’ “ That’s exactly what Duke senior Jon Scheyer did, saving the title on a poor shooting day with a 3-pointer with 18 seconds left that allowed the Blue Devils to hold on for a 6561 triumph over Georgia Tech at Greensboro Coliseum. “To me, it was a little

bit of a storybook ending for the ACC for him to hit that shot,” said Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski, who earned his 12th ACC Tournament title and a record 18th title for the school. “There’s something about Scheyer that just produces wins.” The drama did fit the stuff of a storybook, with

the eventual hero struggling to find his way until the final chapter. When Duke gained possession with less than a minute left, Georgia Tech had trimmed a 10-point deficit down to 60-59 in less than three minutes, but Scheyer — 1-for-8

ACC teams prepare for NCAA/NIT tournaments BY BRIANA GORMAN Durham Herald Sun Duke, North Carolina and N.C. State live to play another day, though the latter two are seeded in the National Invitation Tournament. Duke was named the No. 1 seed in the South Region of the NCAA Tournament on Sunday night, but the Blue Devils will have to wait a few more days to find out who they will play Friday in the first round in Jacksonville, Fla. Duke will face the winner of Tuesday night’s play-in game between Arkansas-Pine Bluff (17-15) and Winthrop (19-13), which will be played in Dayton, Ohio. “We have to make sure our team is ready to go on to the next thing,� Duke senior Lance Thomas said moments after the ACC final. “This right here does not win you a national championship. We’ve got to refocus.� North Carolina, on the other hand, will miss the NCAA Tournament for the first time since the 2002-03 season and will be a No. 4 seed in the NIT. The Tar Heels host No. 5 William & Mary (22-10) on Tuesday (9:30 p.m., ESPN) in Carmichael Arena since the Smith Center is undergoing renovations. UNC (1616) is the second national champion in the past three seasons to miss out on the NCAA Tournament, as Florida went to the NIT in 2008. If the Tar Heels win Tuesday, they will face the win-

ner of the game between No. 1-seed Mississippi State and No. 8 Jackson State. Mississippi State (23-11) lost to Kentucky in overtime in the SEC Tournament title game Sunday. “I am pleased that the committee has invited us to play in the NIT,� UNC coach Roy Williams said. “Of course, we would have liked to have played better this year and be in the NCAA field, but we did not. But we are happy to still be playing basketball, and I hope we will play well in the NIT.� N.C. State, which has won five of its past six games including two wins in the ACC Tournament, earned a No. 6 seed in the NIT and will travel to No. 3 South Florida (20-12) on Tuesday (8 p.m., ESPNU). The Tar Heels and Wolfpack (19-15) are in the same bracket and could meet in the third round. The Blue Devils (29-5) were the third No. 1 seed named Sunday, which meant they ended up in the South region in Houston while Syracuse (28-4) got the No. 1 seed in the West region, which is in Salt Lake City. Kansas is the overall No. 1 seed in the Midwest, while Kentucky is the No. 1 seed in the East. Duke’s victory over Georgia Tech in the ACC Tournament championship game Sunday more than likely helped the Blue Devils get the closer region site over the higher nationally ranked Orange, who did not win a game in the Big East Tournament. If Duke wins its first-round matchup, it will face either No. 9 Louisville (20-12) or No. 8 California (23-

10). One of the Bears’ top players is Jamal Boykins (12 ppg, 6,7 rpg), who transferred from Duke after the 2005-06 season and helped Cal capture the PAC-10 regular-season championship. Further into the Blue Devils’ bracket is a possible meeting with Villanova for the second straight season. A year ago, the Wildcats knocked Duke out in the Sweet 16 by a score of 77-54, but this year the teams couldn’t meet until the Elite Eight, as Villanova is a No. 2 seed. Six ACC teams made the NCAA Tournament, with Virginia Tech the only surprise not to make the cut. Maryland (23-8) earned the No. 4 seed in the Midwest Region and will face No. 13 Houston (19-15), which earned an automatic bid after winning the Conference USA Tournament. No. 10 seed Georgia Tech (2212) will play No. 7 Oklahoma State (22-10) in the Midwest Region, while ninth-seeded Florida State (22-9) faces eighth-seeded Gonzaga (26-6) in the West. In the East Region, No. 9 seed Wake Forest (19-10) plays No. 8 seed Texas (24-9) and No. 7 Clemson (21-10) faces No. 10 Missouri (22-10). Virginia Tech (23-8) tied for third in the conference during the regular season and is the first team with 10 ACC wins not to make the NCAA Tournament since it expanded to 64 teams in 1985. Instead, the Hokies are a No. 1 seed in the NIT and host No. 8 Quinnipiac (23-9) on Wednesday (7 p.m.).

New Vehicles: Did you know that you can deduct the sales tax paid on up to $49,500 of the purchase price of a new vehicle bought in 2009? This is helpful particularly if you do not itemize and instead take the standard deduction on your tax return. In that case, remember you can add the sales tax to the standard deduction. In order to deduct the sales tax paid on the purchase of a new vehicle, the auto must have been purchased between Feb. 17, 2009 and Dec. 31, 2009.

SPORTS RACING From page 7 ing him over 150 laps. When he finally got back in the race, Edwards returned the “favor” by deliberately — I’m not judging him, Carl openly admitted it — putting Keselowski into the wall. The result was a weird case of rewind/replay as Brad’s car then went sailing through the air and into the catch fence. NASCAR put Edwards on probation for the next three races, the two drivers and their car owners, Jack Roush and Roger Penske, will be sitting down with NASCAR officials to discuss and settle the issue, and then I guess we will return to our regularlyscheduled racing. Except it isn’t quite that simple. For starters, almost nobody you talk to seems satisfied with NASCAR’s decision. Comments run the gamut, from “Edwards should have been parked for at least one race” to “Keselowski had it coming.” Next is NASCAR’s decision earlier this year to allow more contact between cars on the track, a policy a lot of people are referring to as “Have at it.” That’s all fine

DUKE From page 7 from 3-point range to that point — received a pass from Smith and drained a 3 from the right side to virtually seal it. “Kyle [Singler] and I crossed underneath, and I was able to get some distance from my man for about a second. Brian [Zoubek] set a really good screen, and I was open,” said Scheyer, who scored 16 points. “Even though I hadn’t been shooting the ball well, my coaches and teammates the whole game told me to keep shooting. “They all had confidence in me, and that’s a big reason I had confidence in that shot. It felt good when it left my hand.” Georgia Tech pulled within 63-61 at the other end, but then Singler — named the Everett Case Award winner after hitting 14 of 16 free throws on his way to 20 points — drained a pair with nine seconds left to erase any remaining doubt. “They didn’t lose the game; we won the game,” Krzyzewski said. “Kyle’s free throws, and Jon hit the biggest shot obviously. “We’re really proud, happy and tired, but a good tired happy.” The Blue Devils (295) now will rest and get geared up to start their run at an even bigger tournament title. Hours after adding the ACC’s tourney crown to their share of the regular season title, Duke learned it will open the NCAA Tournament on Friday as the No. 1 seed in the South Region. It will face the winner of Tuesday’s play-in game between Winthrop and ArkansasPine Bluff in Jacksonville, Fla. But for a couple of hours at least, they savored the conference crown. “We’re ecstatic,” Krzyzewski said. “I know a lot of people say the tournament maybe doesn’t mean as much,

and good when you’re jostling shoulders at a concert venue in order to get a better view, but when you’re using a 3,400 pound stock car to move your neighbor a couple inches to the right, things can get dicey. Also to be taken into consideration is the fact that these are two very different drivers. Edwards is experienced, monumentally talented and amiable by nature, while Keselowski, while also talented, is still a brash rookie trying to make a name for himself. So far, that has often meant deciding where he wants to be on the racetrack and refusing to give up even a fraction of an inch of space. But when exactly did determination become a bad thing? So we have controversy, excitement and a rivalry. I’m liking it. What I do not like so much is the “stock car as a weapon” scenario. Professional drivers are smart and they can do amazing things with those cars. To watch them strategize and maneuver around one another to improve their positions bit by bit, lap after lap, is one of the most fascinating things about racing. It’s so much fun to watch. But although many people love them, crash-

es are not so entertaining. They’re terrifying. Yes, the safety features of a Sprint Cup car are amazing. Week after week we see wrecks — some mild, others more dramatic like the ones at Atlanta and Talladega — and watch the drivers simply climb out of the window and walk away. I’m afraid we’re almost becoming conditioned to think that regardless of the severity of the accident, no one will ever get hurt. Even the drivers seem to feel that way. After the wreck at Atlanta, Keselowski said he wasn’t worried about himself, but about the fans. Whether NASCAR’s handling of Carl Edwards was right or wrong is not for me to judge. I have my opinion, but there’s one thing I know for sure. A race without Edwards in it is a less interesting race for an awful lot of people. That old line from the movie Days of Thunder — “Rubbin’, son, is racin’” has practically become the mantra of the sport. NASCAR’s decision to allow the drivers to mix it up during races was a good call. It did not cause this accident. Race car drivers are fierce and passionate. They worry and laugh, and they get

but it certainly meant a lot to the two teams that were playing today. “That was one of the best games we’ve played in this year, maybe the last couple of years. They played really well; our kids played really well. Defensively, both teams were outstanding.” Duke’s defense ruled the opening minutes, quickly giving the topseeded Blue Devils a lead they never relinquished. The seventh-seeded Yellow Jackets (22-12), trying to become the first team to win the tournament with four victories in four days, looked like a tired team early, failing to get a shot off for the first three minutes. While Georgia Tech’s first five possessions all produced turnovers, Smith — who finished with 16 points — made his mark with three early baskets to help Duke build an 8-0 lead that eventually grew to 17-5. “We played tremendous defense early. We really, really battled their offense,” Smith said. “I wanted to come out and assert myself early, just really be aggressive. Then after that I tried to get my teammates involved, penetrating and making passes.” Georgia Tech soon got a second wind and made a game of it behind freshman big man Derrick Favors, who finished with game highs in points (22) and rebounds (11). Duke, however, always did just enough to keep the Yellow Jackets at bay, never letting them get closer than four points until their final push. The Blue Devils simply couldn’t hit enough shot to finish Georgia Tech off: With less than four minutes left, Duke had hit just 5 of 19 field goals in the second half but still led 58-48 thanks to hitting 17 of 19 secondhalf free throws. At 60-50, Georgia Tech made its move. Iman Shumpert hit a 3, Favors hit a follow shot and Maurice Miller hit a couple of free throws. Finally, Favors got free for a dunk with 47.9 seconds

left to cut Duke’s lead to a single point. Smith worked the shot clock down, then he worked the ball to the senior member of Duke’s big three, who responded with a senior moment. “In a situation like that, I know Jon is going to be ready to catch and shoot,” Smith said. “Before I passed it, I knew it was going in.”

mad. It would be unnatural if they didn’t. They’re human. But I hope I speak for most people when I say that when friction occurs, the boys might consider taking a page out of the old Yarborough/Allison book and settling things the old-fashioned way, by finding a nice quiet place in which to slap one another upside the head. Now, THAT would be fun to watch.

ACC Tournament Legends honored BY BRIANA GORMAN Durham Herald Sun GREENSBORO — Jack Marin and Sam Perkins played in different eras of ACC basketball, yet there they both were Saturday at the Greensboro Coliseum during halftime of the Duke-Miami semifinal game. The former Duke and North Carolina stars were not there to play, of course. Both were among the 12 former players introduced as ACC Tournament Legends at halftime of the first semifinal game. “I guess they waited until I was old enough,” said Perkins, who was an All-American in 1982, ’83 and ’84. “It’s very humbling to be a part of a history that has preceded me and that is bigger than myself. I’m just glad to be part of it — the Carolina’s, the Clemson’s, the Duke’s, to be mentioned along with all the other recipients that are recognized today.” Marin, who played at Duke from 1964-66, helped lead the Blue Devils to three straight regular-season championships and ACC Tournament titles in 1964 and ’66 as well as Final Four appearances those years. He was named an All-American in 1966 and spent 11 years in the NBA. “It reminds you of a period of time in your life that was fairly special,” said Marin, who lives in Durham and has supported Duke as a seasonticket holder for years. “It was a enjoyable back then, and it’s great to be a part of Duke’s tradition. You get a sense of it just being [at the ACC Tournament], and we were part of building the tradition.” As he watched Duke beat Miami 77-74 on Saturday, Marin said he thinks the Blue Devils have the potential to

reach the Final Four this year. “I love what they do, and Mike [Krzyzewski] would’ve been a great coach to play for,” Marin said. “I played for the best in my time in Vic Bubus.” Marin said his favorite ACC Tournament memory was beating UNC 21-20 in the 1966 semifinal in Raleigh. The Blue Devils were ranked No. 3 in the country at the time but led just 7-5 at halftime. “Carolina wouldn’t play with us,” Marin said. “They would not play. I didn’t have to guard my guy the whole night. He didn’t go to the basket. He didn’t try to score. It was a strange game.” For Perkins, beating Maryland by one point in the 1981 ACC Tournament final and capturing the MVP trophy was the highlight of his experiences in the conference tourney. The Tar Heels won another ACC Tournament title and the 1982 national championship while he was in school. “[The 1981 ACC Tournament title] was the first one, and the first one is always the best one because you always remember it,” Perkins said. Rodney Monroe never won an ACC Tournament title during his time at N.C. State (198891), but he is the all-time leading scorer in school history with 2,551 points and was an All-American in 1991. Also honored were Boston College’s Terry Driscoll (1967-69), Clemson’s Dale Davis (198891), Florida State’s Otto Petty (1971-73), Georgia Tech’s Bruce Dalrymple (1984-87), Maryland’s Keith Booth (1994-97), Miami’s Will Allen (196971), Virginia’s Harold Deane (1994-97), Virginia Tech’s Chris Smith (195961) and Dave Wiedeman (1961-63).

drive to school and bring nonperishable items. We decided to use technology to our advantage.” Since hatching the idea, Wyatt has kept busy trying to attract sponsors — Food Lion is currently the lead sponsor — asking for donations from stores and searching for raffle items. People who donate food will automatically receive one raffle ticket and will get another ticket for every 10 pounds of food donated. Raffle items include gift cards and memorabilia signed by Duke and UNC basketball players as well as movie stars and American Idol winners. Other businesses partnering with the event are BB Graphic Designs, which designed banners for the drive on Saturday, and Digital Highpoint, which will print the banners. To help people who may not want to drive to the school but live in the area, Wyatt and other NCSSM students put Food Lion paper bags outside 200 houses in a nearby neighborhood. The residents can put canned food in the bags, and students will come pick it up on Saturday. “It’s been so crazy, getting prepared,” Wyatt said. Wyatt first pitched the world record idea to a group of hall leaders looking to come up with a theme for the hall. Another student suggested that the record they shoot for involve a food drive, and the group went with it. “I thought it was a really unique one,” said Sue Anne Lewis, the food drive events coordinator and Student Life Instructor on Wyatt’s hall. “I’ve been here for six years and I’ve never heard anything like that. I kind of ran with it.” Though they originally wanted to set the record for the largest gathering

A school bus crashed at Cotton Grove Road at 8 a.m. Monday, leaving students and drivers with minor injuries and another driver hospitalized. The school bus, carrying seven students from Stoner-Thomas School, was driving on Cotton Grove Road when it crossed left of center at the Oak Avenue intersection. It struck the driver’s side of a GMC Envoy, driven by Ulanda Johnson Matthews, 32, of Lexington. Matthews was pinned in her vehicle, and, once freed, was transported to Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center by AirCare. AirCare left for the hospital shortly after 9 a.m. The bus also struck a Mazda Protege, driven by Jeffrey White, 43, of Lexington. White was taken to Lexington Memorial Hospital with minor injuries. The children on the bus and the bus driver, Bobby Ray Jones, 60, of Thomasville, were taken to Lexington Memorial Hospital with minor injuries. The Lexington Police Department is still investigating the crash, and currently no charges have been brought.

of nerds and ask each nerd present to bring canned food, the group eventually nixed the nerd aspect and honed in on the food drive. “What’s the point of doing a huge thing, we just kind of wanted to add in helping people because it’s going to be a huge event,” Wyatt said. And the world record adds a bit of a spin on the classic idea of collecting non-perishable food. “Everybody can set a world record,” Wyatt said. “It doesn’t matTUESDAY EVENING CBS PBS FOX NBC ION CW ABC MNT WLXI

because it’s done so much for us,” Wyatt said. The state provides school meals and even senior scholarships. As the day approaches, Wyatt says her emotions have begun to swirl. “I’m really nervous for Saturday,” she said. “I hope it all goes according to plan.” In Thomasville, Wyatt’s parents, Ron and Amanda, have taken an active role in their daughter’s project. The two will drive to Durham on Friday to bring food items

collected from the Thomasville community to NCSSM, including about 175 items from Pleasant Grove United Methodist Church. “We’re real proud of her,” Ron Wyatt said. “Besides the rigors of the academics, she’s been really involved. It’s nice to see her get involved in this effort. It’s a nice humanitarian effort.”
