A DIFFERENT KIND OF ALBATROSS Oil spill leaves suppliers, restaurants reeling
BY ELIOT DUKE Staff Writer
North Carolina’s May unemployment rate fell to its lowest number since the beginning of 2009. According to statistics released by the North Carolina Employment Security Commission Friday, the state unemployment rate dropped a half a percent last month to 10.3 percent, marking the third consecutive month in which there was a decline. Job growth pushed May’s rate to its lowest mark since January 2009, when unemployment in North Carolina stood at 9.7 percent. “Our state’s economy continues to experience a measure of improvement based on the May data,” ESC Chairman Lynn Holmes said. “While there has been an increase of almost 30,000 jobs over the last three months, we continue to experience variation in the growth among job sectors. We are committed to continuing to provide assistance to those North Carolinians who are eligible for benefits and who are searching for jobs.”

When it comes to seafood, Jimmy Todd is Thomasville’s authority. Todd’s Seafood Inc. at 624 National Highway has been a retail store and wholesaler in the Chair City for more than 50 years, having withstood hurricanes and an economic recession. But, nothing could have prepared Todd for what happened in the Gulf of Mexico on April 20 when a British Petroleum (BP) oil rig explosion triggered a massive crude spill that has threatened his way of life. “People talk about how bad [the spill] is on the fishermen in the area, but that’s Todd’s Seafood’s livelihood as well,” Todd said. “I depend on their product and it has affected our business tremendously.” As the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico continues to grow, the availability of shrimp and oysters declines. With supply down, prices inevitably go up, and no one is feeling that basic law of economics harder than Todd, a third generation seafood retailer. With two shrimp seasons already lost and no end to the spill in sight, Todd is literally driving to the Gulf Coast and pulling

Jimmy Todd, owner of Todd’s Seafood, looks over some of the Gulf shrimp he has available in the store. Shrimp is now a rare commodity due to the oil spill in the Gulf. strings developed from decades in the business to secure whatever product he can get his hands on. Unplanned trips to destinations farther and farther away have taken its toll on Todd financially, a burden at this point that can’t be passed on. “There’s no way to pass
the cost on to make up the difference for us having to run our trucks farther to get product, it’s that much,” said Todd. “We’ve had to run further, run harder and look longer, and it is not getting better. It’s getting harder for us to find our domestic product. I’m concerned
with what it’s going to be next week, next month, next year, and what it’s going to do the industry.” Timing of the spill couldn’t have been much worse for people like Todd, as shrimp season started April 15. Throw
Cal Cunningham and Elaine Marshall, candidates for the Democratic U.S. Senate seat, will face off in the Tuesday, June 22, runoff election. The showdown will determine which Democratic candidate will run against Republican Sen. Richard Burr in November. In the almost seven weeks since the May 4 primary, both Cunningham and Marshall have been busy, touring the state, garnering support from fellow Democrats and engaging in debates. “The runoff has given both candidates a chance to meet more voters,” said Mark Giangreco, spokesperson for the North Carolina Democratic Party. “Whoever emerges will be stronger for it. We’ll be running a strong, coordinated operation.” And in that month-and-a-half, both candidates

Originally from Indiana, the couple moved to Thomasville in 2007 to work at BCH. Assigned to Alumni Cottage, Don and Laurie spend two weeks out of each month living with 10 boys ages 12 to 16. “We try to keep it as close to family as possible,” Don said. “We’re not here to replace anybody’s family, but it’s relationship building. There’s going to be some good days and there’s going to be some days where we try again tomorrow.”

Look both ways in a crucial conversation TaylorMade
MARILYN TAYLOR Syndicated Columnist
Holding a successful Crucial Conversation (as written by Kerry Paterson, Joseph Grenny, Ron McMillan, Al Switzler) requires that we “Start with Heart.� Becoming aware of our own drivers, triggers and biases is critical. Next, we are taught to consider what we really want and act on that goal – rather than reacting to the moment. Skill No. 2 is called “Learn to Look� and invites the use of our senses to assist us. This second skill doesn’t require us to say certain things or drive to a specific outcome. It simply asks us to look – at both our conversation partner and ourselves. Let’s begin with the other guy. Is he sending signals that he is engaged and communicating openly, or are opposing signals coming your way? “Learn to
Look� insists that we pay attention to what is going on around us while we are also involved in the conversation. This can be tricky, and requires the use of perception, rather than judgment. No conclusions here – observations are key. Specifically, we are looking for signs that the other party is not feeling safe in the psychological sense. When we feel safe in a conversation, we are free to express misgivings, ask questions and speak truth. When we don’t feel safe, people exhibit behavioral clues such as verbal aggression, or withdrawing and becoming silent. One more thing. “Learn to Look� includes looking at our own behavior through a similar lens. Are we exhibiting signs that safety is in question or has been violated? Clues include arguing just to win, interrupting to be sure we are heard, and refusing to communicate honestly. Familiarity with your style under stress (available online at www. vitalsmarts.com) lets you know what to watch for and avoid. Try it! What do you need to do when caught in the middle of a crucial conversation? Here’s a summary of the tips covered in this second skill:
Learn to look at content and conditions. Look for when things become crucial. Learn for watch for safety problems. Look to see if others are moving toward silence or violence. Look for outbreaks of your style under stress. We’ll add Skill #3 next week. With “Make it Safe’ we’ll keep the conversation moving under a yellow flag‌.

My dad’s hands UNCLE BILL’S CORNER
BILL HILL Guest Columnist
My Dad, some 90-plus years he would have been now, sat feebly on the front porch in his rocking chair. As he rocked back and forth, where he just sat with his head down staring at his hands, I remember sitting down beside him. He didn’t acknowledge my presence and the longer I sat, I wondered if he was ok. Finally, not really wanting to disturb him but wanting to check on him at the same time, I asked if he was okay. He raised his head and looked at me and said in a clear, loud voice, “Yes, I’m fine. Thank you for asking.” “I just wanted to see if you were okay and did not want to disturb you. You were just sitting there staring at your hands.” “Have you ever looked at your hands?” he asked. “I mean really looked at your hands.” I slowly opened my hands and started looking at the palms up and down and then the back of my hand I looked at closely. “No. I don’t think that I have Dad.” He smiled and related this story. “Stop and think for a moment about the hands you have — how
RATE From page 1
Non-farm industry employment increased by 12,900 jobs, with the largest growth coming in government, thanks primarily to Census workers. Manufacturing jobs, however, continued to struggle, losing 2,900 jobs. The total number of people employed in North Carolina rose by 14,722 workers as the number of unemployed fell by 20,749. Since last May, when the unemployment rate was 10.9 percent, the number of employed workers is up by more than 35,000. ESC spokesperson Larry Parker said the unemployment rate tends to rise during summer months as more people, mostly students looking for seasonal work, enter the labor force. While
they have served you well through your years. These hands, though wrinkled, shriveled and weak, have been the tools I have used all my life to reach out and grab and embrace life. “They braced and caught my fall when I was a child, they put food in my family’s mouths, and clothes on their backs and a roof over their heads. They taught my children to pray, they dried the tears away both then and now. These hands trembled and dried the tears away when your Mother died. They have been dirty, bent, broken, scraped, swollen, raw and worked hard all of their life. They have shook the hands of friends and strangers, alike. They have clinched with anger and stress. They covered my face and combed my hair and put clothes on me. These hands hold me up and lay me down. These hands are the marks of the ruggedness of my life. “But, most importantly, it will be these hands that God will reach and take when He leads me home.” After that day, I never looked at my hands the same way. But, I remember over a decade ago, God reached out and took my Dad’s hands and lead him home. When my hands are hurt or sore or when I stroke the face of someone I love, I remember my Dad. What a man he was. Tell your Father thank you today for all the blessings he gave you! Happy Father’s Day Guest Columnist Bill Hill can be reached at billyunclebill@aol.com.
Census jobs are temporary and account for a large part of the job gains, Parker said there are other encouraging signs that the economy is slowly recovering. “We still had some continued growth in professional and business and retail,” said Parker. “We’re not just seeing it in one place. We’ve seen some gains in temporary workers being hired and when folks start using temp agencies to hire people, some get hired for full-time jobs eventually. Regardless, it’s a sign that employers are hiring again.” Parker added that North Carolina is still down more than 250,000 jobs since the start of the national recession in December, 2007.

CELEBRATE From page A5 And though the Pensworths see their roles in the children’s lives more as extended family than anything else, they still try to fashion their lifestyle in the cottage as close to typical familial life they can. Don said he and his wife do their best to cultivate each child as any parent would, helping them with studies and encouraging them in other activities. “Every one of our guys has an opportunity to do something better,” Don said. “We tell our guys, pick a dream and we’ll back you up on it. We have some guys that want to go into the military, and we support them 100 percent.” Other children want to be NBA stars, others aren’t sure. But the groundwork of support remains the same. “The thing is, the cottage has to be a safe place,” Don said. “We’re there. We’re there for them.” Aside from their mentoring role for the 10
children at BCH, the Pensworths are also raising their own children. While the oldest girl, Heather, prepares to graduate from college in December, the couple’s younger son, Dustin, age 4, still accompanies his parents to BCH. And he fits right into the little family. “They’re brothers, they’re all brothers to him,” Laurie said. “He loves that. Some of the younger ones that are 10, 11, 12 are very playful, they’ll play with him, and the older ones tend to be protective. We’ll go wake them up on Saturday morning — he’ll have to go with us.” And Boomy, as Dustin is affectionately called, sometimes acts like he works at the cottage, too. If a boy seems to be having a bad day, Laurie said Dustin picks up on it. The boy will go over to the older child and ask what’s wrong. “The guys respond to him in ways they won’t to us because he’s younger,” Laurie said. Though having their young son with them while working at the cottage isn’t always a walk
in the park, Don said that seeing the way a nuclear family functions can give the boys a model. “That’s just another opportunity for us to show how to do things differently than maybe they’re used to when it comes to disciplining him or encouraging him,” Don said. “It opens up for a good conversation about being a dad — and waiting.” But just as the Pensworths have become a part of the boys’ lives at BCH, those kids have become a part of theirs. Cottage parents at BCH spend two weeks living in the cottage and two weeks living in their own home. Don and Laurie say that if Alumni Cottage’s beach trip to the BCH cottage near Morehead City falls on their off weeks, the Thomasville family will go down anyway. “It’s just a good place to go to relax and have some fun,” Don said. “These guys and the other staff are getting memories, and we want to be a part of that, that way the whole cottage is sharing.” Two weeks on and two weeks off can be a trying lifestyle, but the family
does their best to make it an easy transition. “It is kind of like we have two lives,” she said. “We just try to leave as much as we can at each place so we don’t have to transfer.” But the difficulty is worth it. Don and Laurie said they have grown connected to the almost 50 kids they have served in the past three years, and some of those kids even stay in contact. “We’ve had a couple of calls at 3 in the morning — ‘Hey Mr. Don, how are you doing?’ ‘I’m sleeping, how are you?’” Laurie said laughing. But all joking aside, the Pensworths say they are touched by those moments, and they encourage all of the children to stay in contact as they move on. “We keep that door open,” Laurie said. “There’s been a couple that I’ve cried when they left. I know they’re leaving and going back home, but I’ll miss them.”

TAX-FREE INCOME FOR YOUR RETIREMENT Tax-free income is the best gift you can give yourself at retirement. Converting to a Roth IRA from a traditional IRA allows for tax-free accumulation as well as tax-free withdrawals in retirement – which means you don’t have to worry as much about what income tax rates will be in the future. There are tax considerations and other factors that determine whether converting to a Roth IRA is right for you. And changes set for 2010 will eliminate the $100,000 modified adjusted gross income (MAGI) limit, which means anyone can convert to a Roth IRA. Call today to schedule an appointment to learn more. We’ll discuss your retirement goals to help determine if a Roth IRA makes sense for you. Edward Jones, its employees and financial advisors do not provide tax or legal advice.

Father’s Day takes on new meaning VIEWPOINT
ZACH KEPLEY Sports Editor Sunday marks a special holiday in my life I will get to experience from another perspective for the first time — Father’s Day. For years, I honored my father Johnny, with that special gift or time spent with him on this day. But since he died back in 1999, I have not gotten to truly celebrate, except for honoring my father-in-law, Peter, who is a fine dad himself. I have always wondered what it would be like becoming a father. Through 26 years of my life, I held the titles of son and husband, but had not reached the point where I would be referred to as dad. That is until last June, when my wife Michelle broke the news to me that she was pregnant. It was a feeling I will never forget. Fast forward to present day, and I am about to enjoy my first Father’s Day with my four-month-old daughter Riley. Though years from now she will not remember the day, my hope for now is that she looks up at me and realizes how much she is truly loved. As for me, my hope is I can become just as good of a father as my dad was to me. There are plenty of responsibilities that come with being a father, but equally as important is the love and support we must show them. I had one of the best in the business raising me, not just because he taught me the ropes of life and how I must conduct myself, but because he devoted his time to showing me that he supported me in everything I did. Whether it would be a school play, a baseball game or piano recital, when I looked out into the audience or crowd, there he would be. Now understandably, a lot of fathers are working and may not be able to make these particular functions, but many times I have seen where they could have attended, but chose to do something else. I want to be one of those ac-
tive and involved parents that make it any time they can, even if it means passing up on something I might enjoy more. Just this past Thursday, I participated in a golf tournament and left Riley for the day. It amazed me at how much I could miss someone that does not even walk or talk yet, but there I was thinking about her. That alone tells me I am on the right track to becoming a hero to my daughter like my dad was to me. Without a doubt the most important value my father and mother instilled in me was religion. From a young age, they taught me about the love of Jesus Christ and how I should live my life in his eyes. That we are on this earth for a short time, and there is a place prepared for us in heaven if we commit ourselves to serving him. My every intention is to share those same values with Riley, and that I not only teach her what is right and wrong, but that I show her through the way I live my life. I already find myself questioning what I watch on television that her young eyes and ears may see or hear. What may seem like a harmless television show to us, is actually teaching our little ones bad things. I am not perfect, my wife is not perfect, my mother is not perfect and my father was not perfect, but we have done and our doing the best we possibly can to raise our children to be quality individuals that show respect, and in turn will be respected. That is my hope. To be a shining light, first for God, then to my children. I want the best for my kids and the only way they can have the best is for me to do my part and show them the way. Does setting a good example and living an exemplary life mean they will turn out just like you? Absolutely not. But at least you did your part, caring for them as any loving parent would do. This Father’s Day, I will be grinning from ear to ear. Not only because I’ll have a precious little one smiling and giggling at my every move, but because she is going to receive the very love and attention I was given. Now, if I could only get her to drop a hint to mommy that daddy would like a new pitching wedge. Sports Editor Zach Kepley can be reached at 888-3631, or at kepley@tvilletimes.com.

A historic production THIS-N-THATS
LARRY MURDOCK Guest Columnist It’s still a little early, but I hope you have the dates of Nov. 13 and 14 on your calendars for the “Evening of Music” sponsored by the Thomasville Medical Center Foundation. The event will be held again at Finch Auditorium on the campus of Thomasville Senior High School on Unity Street. You don’t want to miss this year’s presentation with a theme based around the ‘40s and WWII. It will be another quality production with local talent. Linda Hunt, Director of the Foundation, is in need of several “props” for use in the production. So, if you have any of the items listed here and are willing to loan them to the Foundation, contact Linda at the Thomasville Medical Center Foundation by e-mail at lhunt@novanthealth.org or give her a call at 476-2881. List of items needed: Old magazines; old newspapers; old radio; old 48-star flag; anything affiliated with the USO; your stories about the USO (from someone who has been to a USO) and other items from that era. Buy a ticket and give a ticket. Would you consider buying a ticket for you and buying a ticket to the Evening of Music to give to a WWII veteran or to someone who would not attend what promises to be another outstanding entertainment event? ••• Ridiculous! Gayle called my attention to a recent letter to “Dear Abby.” It spoke about a gentleman, Wayne, and his wife, inviting another couple out for dinner.
Wayne offered the friend, Elaine, a piece of gum. When she returned the box of gum, she admitted that she took two pieces. Wayne told her that he only offered her one piece of gum and it wasn’t right for her to take two pieces. Elaine responded that he had no right to dictate her serving size. Wayne wanted to know if Elaine was right in “chewing him out” for taking two pieces of gum. How stupid is this guy and Elaine to criticize each other over a piece of gum? That’s why I don’t read Dear Abby and similar columns. Don’t these two people have more to worry about? It looks like there are more important issues like the crude oil crisis in the Gulf, unemployment and other similar news stories. I could care less about a piece of gum. I hope you feel likewise. ••• I am obsessed with the GPS (Global Positioning System). Gayle and I attended a social event in Greensboro on Tuesday night. We borrowed my son Jerry’s GPS to make finding our destination much simpler. It worked! Gayle made a couple of wrong turns and the lady’s voice immediately announced; “Recalculating,” meaning that we probably made a wrong turn or failed to make a turn. The GPS was going to give us new directions. The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a space-based global navigation satellite system that provides reliable location and time information in all weather and at all times and anywhere on or near the earth there is an unobstructed line of sight to four or more GPS satellites. It is maintained by the United States government and is freely accessible by anyone with a GPS receiver. There are 24 to 32 satellites in the earth’s orbit that control the GPS device. These satellites will pick up a body of water, showing it as blue; a golf course is shown as green. Even if we know where we are going, we use it just to see the roads and other land-
marks that are illuminated. •••
The Restaurant A group of 40-year-old girlfriends discussed where they should meet for dinner. Finally, it was agreed upon that they should meet at the Ocean View restaurant because the waiters there had tight pants and nice buns. Ten years later at 50 years of age, the group once again discussed where they should meet for dinner. Finally, it was agreed that they should meet at the Ocean View restaurant because the food there was very good and the wine selection was good also. Ten years later, at 60 years of age, the group once again discussed where they should meet for dinner. Finally, it was agreed that they should meet at the Ocean View restaurant because they could eat there in peace and quiet and the restaurant had a beautiful view of the ocean. Ten years later, at 70 years of age, the group once again discussed where they should meet for dinner. Finally, it was agreed that they should meet at the Ocean View restaurant because the restaurant was wheel chair accessible and they even had an elevator. Ten years later, at 80 years of age, the group once again discussed where they should meet for dinner. Finally, it was agreed that they should meet at the Ocean View restaurant because they had never been there before. ••• Tomorrow is Father’s Day, her are a few quotes: A father carries pictures where his money used to be. — Author Unknown It is not flesh and blood but the heart which makes us fathers and sons. — Johann Blessed indeed is the man who hears many gentle voices call him father! — Lydia M. Child The greatest gift I ever had Came from God; I call him Dad! — Author Unknown Happy Father’s Day!

Letters to the Editor To the Editor I couldn’t believe my eyes when I read the Thursday, July 17 issue of the High Point Enterprise that our local Country Legends (98.3) radio station has been acquired by a Hispanic multimedia company and may be converted to a Mexican format next month! The article stated that the Triad has a 7 percent Hispanic population. Well, who else lives in the rest of the Triad? How are we going to hear the Oldies — Tammy, Johnny, Waylon, George and Willie, just to mention a few? I remember about 10 years ago when WIST-FM played our everyday classics
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR All letters should include name, address and daytime phone number. Anonymous letters will not be printed. Letters should be no more than 400 words, unless otherwise approved by editor. Limited to one letter every 30 days. All letters are subject to editing.
and then changed to “country.” I missed the “Oldies,” but got used to the Country Legends. Now, they’re going too! Our furniture industry has gone to China, Vietnam, etc.; our clothing and home goods to Mexico, etc. Now, we’re losing our Country Legends station. The article states that the switch is being made because there is a niche to fill in the Hispanic radio market and for “economic” reasons. I guess they really mean MONEY reasons!

SPILL From page 1 in the fact that another shrimp season due to start on May 15 never materialized, and it’s easy to see why Todd is losing some sleep these days. “It has caused a lot of headaches and heartache,” Todd said. “This is a mishap that I don’t have an answer for. It has already hurt the industry, especially in the area where the spill is at. It’s just getting worse. Shrimp goes in several different sizes, from popcorn to jumbo. You catch different shrimp in different stages. It has tremendously hurt our popcorn shrimp at this time. That’s the first crop is the small shrimp.” Todd remembers Hurricane Katrina in 2005 and the devastation the storm caused to the Gulf coast, but the oil spill is different. When a hurricane passes through, once it’s over, clean up can begin. Todd feels the oil spill is the worst disaster the industry and the people involved has ever seen. Making matters worse is the way BP has handled the whole process, Todd said. “To begin with, [BP] should’ve had a plan in place before they started drilling,” said Todd. “If they had a plan, they could’ve gone ahead and taken care of it. There wasn’t a plan in place for if there was a mishap.” Gary Hill, owner of T’ville Diner at 132 W. Main St., is paying 90 cents more per pound for shrimp and has yet to raise his prices. If the trend continues, however, Hill said he will have no choice but pass on some of the price spike to his customers. Like Todd, Hill
feels the situation in the Gulf of Mexico has not been handled properly and that factors other than incompetence may be involved. “BP should stand for Bunglers Petroleum not British Petroleum,” Hill said. “Forty years ago, we could put a man on the moon yet we can’t stop a pipe leaking, even if it’s 5,000 feet below the ocean? With the technology we have, there’s something wrong. I think this is a wag-the-dog situation where they’re deliberately bungling this to help [President Barack] Obama push his energy legislation. They could’ve stopped this leak a long time ago if they really wanted to.” Jim Davis, owner of Rosa Mae’s restaurant on National Highway, is worried that the oil spill will cause uncertainty in the seafood market for the foreseeable future, as 80 percent of the country’s shrimp and oysters come from the Gulf of Mexico. Having to compete with larger seafood houses is putting Davis in a difficult situation. “For seafood houses, this is their livelihood and they’re trying to buy up all they can,” said Davis. “It’s not going to be a quick fix and will probably go on through the end of the year, and demand will drive the prices up. It will go widespread.” With each passing day, millions of gallons of oil continue to gush out into the Gulf of Mexico. Time is running out on this year’s season for shrimp and oysters, leaving prices nowhere to go but up. Staff Writer Eliot Duke can be reached at 888-3578, or duke@tvilletimes.com.
FACE OFF From page 1 feel they’ve made significant strides. “I feel pretty confident about where we are,” said Thomas Mills, a representative with Marshall’s campaign. “We’ve gotten great feedback. We’ve put together a very, very strong effort going into the final days.” One of the giant issues facing the Senate hopefuls remains the poor economy. “Right now, getting the economy working for people again has got to be one of the prime issues facing North Carolinians,” Mills said. “But again it gets back to are we going to have a Congress that’s working for folks or are they going to be doing the bidding of special interests?” For Cunningham, the unemployment has taken a personal note. A Davidson County native, Cunningham lives a few blocks from the empty furniture factories where his friends’ parents used to work. “Those to me are very personal,” Cunningham said. “I will take that to Washington not because we can turn back the clock and do textiles and furniture again but because we’ve got to look to the future and manufacture something new.” Education also looms large on the political scene, especially given the budget cuts many states have made in school funding. Cunningham said one way to combat the issue was to support a bill pending in Congress to protect teacher jobs despite the economic downturn. While the bill has passed the House, it hinges on a few votes in the Senate. Another avenue in supporting education is for the federal government to help states by picking up the slack in funding. “One thing that the federal government can do right now is give states the assistance they need so they don’t have to be laying off teachers,” Mills said. “That’s a travesty, when you’re having to balance the budget on the backs of your schools. Give people the
Cunningham skills to create jobs, to build businesses — that’s the future.” But economy and education — though large issues — aren’t the only ones the two candidates hope to focus on in Congress. Cunningham hopes to strengthen social security for the future by not putting money in risky privatization games and not raising the retirement age, which Burr and Marshall, respectively, have proposed. Cunningham will also be the first Iraq War Veteran in the Senate, a set of personal experiences that the candidate intends to take to Washington. “Taking care of veterans and military families isn’t going to be an ‘issue’ for me,” he said. “This is going to be a passion. These are people I served with.” Marshall, for her part, has worked to put together an organization that helps businesses survive, strives to return money to investors and pension funds, lock up scam artists who prey on seniors
Marshall
and oversee lobbying reform. “The over-arching issue is putting Washington back on the right track and getting folks that are paying more attention to the needs of special interests,” Mills said. “In reality, these are the same issues that we’re facing in Washington today. These are the same players.” Whatever the outcome on Tuesday, Giangreco said the emerging Democratic candidate will be in a great position to take on Burr. “Sen. Burr has spent the past nearly two decades in Washington standing with the special interests on a host of issues,” Giangreco said. “Cal Cunningham and Elaine Marshall are proven fighters and will understand the problems that North Carolinians are facing and bring that to Washington. What voters are looking for is someone who’s going to stand up for North Carolina.”

Adkins scrambles to find players BY ZACH KEPLEY Sports Editor
CALENDAR TODAY CPL
HiToms @ Asheboro 7:05 p.m.
It has been a whirlwind week for Heather Adkins, who recently took over the Davidson County Community College volleyball program after Kevin Hammond resigned. Adkins would normally be taking it easy at her job at North Davidson, finalizing end of school work and getting ready for a nice summer break. Instead, she is trying to recruit players at a break-neck pace, as time is running out on the recruiting process. “My week has been busy,” said Adkins. “I have been trying to close out my year
at North Davidson and get started with this.” She does have two quality players coming back in front row hitters Lauren Leonard and Katie Watkins, but that is all that remains from a squad that made it to the NJCAA Division III National Tournament last season, finAdkins ishing eighth in the nation. Adkins caught a huge break as four players that were recruited by Hammond have decided they will stick with their decision and play for the Storm next
season. “I have talked to them and all four have confirmed they are going to come play,” said Adkins. That leaves the team with only six players, which is just enough to field a team. Ideally, Adkins would like to have around 12 on a team, but with such little time to recruit, she is hoping they can at least have eight bodies. “I have sent out an e-mail to the Davidson County coaches and I am going to talk to some of the surrounding county coaches

To be a successful NASCAR driver, you have to be more than simply fast. Winning involves good vision and reflexes, physical strength and endurance, and patience. A driver needs to have a certain amount of fearlessness and yes, a little bit of luck now and again. There’s another thing, too. You have to be able to remain alert, even when things get dull. Sometimes valuable lessons can sneak up you unexpectedly. While driving through Georgia on the way to Florida recently on a beautiful, sunny day, my car’s windshield wipers came on — of their own volition — and they stayed on. I soldiered on for a while, pretending I was washing my windshield until the fluid well ran dry. Then it got embarrassing; people were staring. It’s bad enough having to drive through Georgia — the “Road Construction State” — in June, but to do it with those rubber wipers repeatedly dragging themselves across a dry windshield is excruciating. The sound they produce is kind of a cross between a Yoko Ono concert and a cat fight. With real cats. I tried everything I could think of to make them stop. I fiddled with the controls. I pulled my car off the Interstate and shut the motor off. I talked to them in the threatening mom voice — “You windshield wipers stop that RIGHT NOW, or else.” Nothing worked.

tvillesports@yahoo.com
CONCORD — Thomasville driver Adam Burton, 14, will participate in the largest grassroots race in history, the Legends Million July 15 -17 at Charlotte Motor Speedway, driving the Burton Builders Inc. car. The Legends Million is a one-of-a-kind Legend Car race featuring a total purse of $1 million with the A-Main winner guaranteed to take home an unprecedented $250,000, while the final spot in the feature is assured $10,000.
The star-studded event — to be televised live on the SPEED Channel -— will feature U.S. Legends Series regulars, upand-coming drivers and the sport’s top stars in a 100-lap dash for the cash. The only other domestic auto racing series that compete for a $1 million purse are the NASCAR Sprint Cup, NASCAR Nationwide and IndyCar Series. “If I win the Legends Million,” Burton says, “the first thing I would do is spin donuts in the infield! Then I would use some of the money to buy
a late model car.” Burton caught the racing bug in 2000 when he was racing over a dozen dirt bikes. His first race car was a Prowler Quarter Midget and from the first time he strapped into a race car he was hooked. “My sponsor, mechanic and coach — My Dad has been the biggest influence on my racing career.” Burton said. “We love to race!” In 2008, Burton qualified for Loretta Lynn’s Amateur Nationals and finished second in Carolina Fall Nationals for-

SPORTS Shotgun games for learning OFF THE PORCH
DICK JONES Outdoor Columnist Last week at Beaver Pond Sporting Club, I had a lesson with a young lady who was just getting started shooting. She, like a growing number of women, had experienced a shooting/hunting outing and wanted to learn more about traditional outdoor sports. Since the event, she’d gotten a dog and started hunting with her husband but wanted to sharpen her shotgun skills. We worked through the usual issues of gun mount, dominant eye, shooting stance, and follow through and she showed promise, by the end of the lesson, she was breaking almost all of the rather easy targets we were shooting at. Since she lived in another state and was only here for a few weeks, she asked how to best continue her development as a shotgunner once she was back home. We came up with a couple of ideas together based on my advice, mainly that she find a local instructor and that she shoot as often as possible, at least until she developed the muscle memory that makes good shotgunning possible. Learning to shoot a shotgun well is different from almost any other kind of shooting since you’re almost always required to move the gun with the target and fire the shot during that movement. Almost every other kind of shooting requires that you be as still as possible when you fire the shot, no matter what happens just before and just after the shot. Since these wingshooting shots occur at all kinds of random angles and relative target speeds, the successful shooter must learn how to deal with all these conditions. In normal hunting and target shooting, the shotgunner experiences rising and falling shots, straight and curving shots, incoming and departing shots and a myriad of angles for each. Each requires a different lead and angle. Good shotgunners develop a repertoire of methods to deal with all this different situations and compensate in their minds for the subtle differences. You could never learn to be a complete shotgunner shooting only incoming shots, nor could you ever learn if you only did crossing shots. You have to experience and learn how to deal with everything. Once you have the repertoire, your mind will automatically adjust for speeds, ranges, and angles. My student, Cassandra, and I started working on an incoming shot that approached from straight out and paused briefly before falling back and down. The idea was for this to be a confidence shot for her
since the target paused and all she had to do was point at it and shoot when it reached its peak. Our next shot was a straightaway shot launched from just in front, requiring her to acquire the target and break it before it began to fall away and down. In a two hour lesson, she mastered the two shots, learning how to accomplish two very different things. If we categorized all the basic different shots a successful shotgunner has to master, it would probably be about ten basic shots and variations or combinations of them. Cassandra’s goal was to learn skills that would make her an acceptable hunter, not a competitive shotgunner. It’s possible she may decide she wants to learn the more sophisticated skills competitive shooters need, but for hunting, she needs basic skills relating mostly to rising and departing birds with the ability to handle an incoming bird situation from time to time. One of the oldest shooting games is Skeet and it might just be the best game for a new shooter to use to develop that repertoire of shots. In Skeet, there are two traps throwing a simple straight target at a moderate angle. There are eight stations and the shooters move in a semi circle, offering everything from incoming and outgoing shots to pure crossers. The targets are predictable, eliminating the issue of the new shooter being unsure of where the target is coming from. This predictability is a good thing for a new shooter since there are so many other things to think about without worrying where the shot is coming from. Another really good

SPORTS GAMES From page 8 training game is wobble trap. In wobble trap, the shooter shoots at a target that always comes from the same location but varies in both vertical and horizontal angle. At the center of the five stations, the target normally comes from directly in front of the shooter, offering a simple point and shoot situation. From the other positions, the target will be quartering away both to the left and right in various angles from almost straightaway to a target that’s almost a crosser. Both these games are good for beginning shooters because they eliminate the worry about where the target’s coming from and, in Skeet, what its exact
TIME From page 7 Back and forth, back and forth they went. It was inexorable, a sort of metronome effect. Then the car next to me decided very suddenly to make a lane change, and I snapped out of it. It was a relatively close call. The windshield wipers, doing the same thing over and over for almost 200 miles, had lulled me into a zombie-like trance, and frankly, I simply wasn’t paying attention. When my heart rate got back to normal, I had a thought. I had let my mind wander after a relatively brief stretch of repetition. What must it be like inside a stock car during a race? At any given moment during a NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race, hundreds or even thousands of things are going on at once. To fans watching from the grandstands or the infield or on television, it seems to be an unceasing flurry of activity, and it is. Crew chiefs and spotters are communicating with their drivers.

be shooting crossers. Learning to shoot a shotgun and hit flying targets is fun and a great confidence builder whether you wish to hunt or not. With the right gun and shells anyone with reasonable dexterity can learn it. Clay games like Skeet, Wobble trap or just hand launched targets can get you going in a short time. A little instruction just speeds up the process.

While it’s important to learn the repertoire of shots offered in hunting and recreational shooting, a new shooter needs simple, repetitive targets to develop the muscle memory that makes a successful wingshooter. Of course, a person can learn to shoot with
only one trap in a fixed position with the shooter moving around the trap. Beginning directly at the trap, learn how to break a simple going away target, take a couple of steps to the right or left and begin to see how lead works. Keep working away from the trap and eventually, you’ll
Teams are getting ready for the next pit stop. The ebb and flow of a race is like the tide; it is constantly in motion. Back and forth; back and forth. Cars are jockeying for position or strategizing on how to get more speed, or avoid the trouble spots. It starts out busy, and it stays that way. Inside the cockpit of the car, things are a little different. Obviously I’m not too well-versed on the intricacies of cars — I can’t even turn off my own windshield wipers, after all — but it seems to me to be a “boy in the bubble” type of situation. The driver is strapped in and, barring any on-track incidents, he stays there. His only contact with the outside world comes via an earpiece, literally a voice inside his own head. NASCAR is never boring, but there are stretches of cautionfree green flag racing where it can be somewhat uneventful. The driver grabs the wheel. The race begins. For hundreds of miles, the landscape never changes. Turn 2 is exactly the same on Lap 305 as it was on Lap 5. It can resemble a stuck wind-
shield wiper experience, for up to 500 miles. Who knows when, in the midst of all that back and forth, back and forth, a golden opportunity will present itself ? There’s no place for metronomic zombies here. The things that seem so small can sometimes present the biggest obstacles. What a testament to the skill of the drivers in the Cup Series, that ability to maintain such focus not only where the action is, but where it isn’t. Until I get back to South Carolina and find someone who can figure this thing out and fix it for me (i.e., change a fuse or something), I’m employing a strategy rarely used in racing. I’m praying for rain, because in life, as in NASCAR, timing is everything.

RELIGION
A progressive view on an controversial topic MINISTER’S CORNER
DR. MARQUIS RAMSEY Syndicated Columnist
It has been, without a doubt, one of the most divisive and contretemps debates of the 20th and 21st centuries. This argument of whether or not lesbians, gays, bisexuals or transgendered persons (LGBT) will be integrated into the Christian Church has reached silly proportions. Its disputatious voices are heard from affront The White House to distant shores far off. From lobbyists on Capitol Hill to the notepads of ministers’ preparing sermons. This has become a nefarious affair. So often, many within the Christian community will aim their loaded arguments directly at the hearts of the LGBT community and pull the trigger of so-called scriptural wisdom, inciting often the most archaic arguments possible. They say that God is appalled at their behavior and habits. They scream that God’s consternation leaves Him in disapproval of such behavior and thinking. Others, on the other hand, argue that homosexuality is not a sin. Some say that people are born with lesbian and gay tendencies. They contend that genetic and neurological cross-firing takes place within certain persons during the fetal stages of development that bring about these sexual orientations. There is argumentative exchange, for sure. However, while all of that is clear and no secret, as a progressive Baptist pastor and theologian living in the City of Thomasville, what say I of the matter? I say this. First, I say that the methods, lessons, life and principles of Christ far exceed many of our oblivious understandings and futile ideas of what it really means to love, to include, and to be genuinely neighborly. Second, I say so often we find it easy to use the holy scriptures as a tool to condemn, disapprove, and umpire, as opposed to find means with which to advocate, become altruists, and acquit. A great deal of the Church’s condemnation of others, particularly the LGBT community, is as a result of some scripturally disillusioned, yet heartfelt belief that the world is all about “them” and “us,” “saved” and “sinner.” Many will say that “they” [LGBTs] need to
be “saved” and cleansed from their sins and be reborn in Christ Jesus! Many so quickly adjudicate the remedy to end with hell for all of those that are living outside of their own personally held beliefs, as well as, the Church’s beliefs. Christians often believe in their structured theological doctrines and patterns of liturgy, so much that they become marionettes of a malnourished structure of critical thinking. This kind of believing — this shallow religious insight into the thorax of human existence — leaves persons limited of affectionate and empathetic feeling towards the realities of people and the world in which they live. Remember, “As a man thinks in his heart, so is he.” On the other hand, the ability to “free think” enables us to genuinely touch, experience, and feel the world and its people around us, all without feeling bastardized from the Church and its deeper principles and directives. One of the most remarkable patterns of unorthodoxy that Christ introduced was counterstructured thinking. The Nazarene so often illustrates to us the vital necessity for continued illumination on any subject matter. Christ, in Matthew 5 states, “It has been said by those of old … but I say unto you …” Christ addressed His culture with a mind engineered towards a constantly changing cultural and moral demographic. James A. Forbes Jr. states that “The beauty of the Bible is its pattern of addressing changing circumstances out of evolving wisdom rooted and grounded in fundamental truth.” So I say, regardless if a person is gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgendered, or “queer,” really is of no concern, nor should it really matter. If we were to pause and think about what so called transgressions we who are heterosexual Christians harbor, both male and female, how can we possibly judge anyone else’s “way.” I personally, am not perfect, nor do I feign to be so. With that knowledge of myself I dare not speak ill of others, nor do I consider anyone’s disposition of life to be paramount over my own. It, in my opinion, is uncivilized. I have many friends who are members of the LGBT community and love them equally as do I my heterosexual colleagues and friends. Am I wrong about my beliefs and acceptance of the LGBT community? No. Do I seem to advocate, accept, and affirm their presence, importance, and equality in both the world and the Church? Yes. Why? Because I have come to know what it means to look beyond the literal letter of Scripture
and have come to see the intent of the Divine as played out through Divine love. I understand that no time or season is able to perceive the full scope of divine intention. So, without knowing all that God intends for his Church, His people, His creation, or His universe, I dismiss judgment or condemnation of anyone, particularly the LGBT community. I only accept and advocate. Here are several case briefs in point. Bear in mind that these particular points were endorsed and support by many within the Christian Church at some point in societal history. Think back with me to a time when it was wrong for Negroes to go to school with Whites, to look a White man in the face, or for Black men to speak to a White woman. That changed. Think back with me to a time when it was wrong for women to think openly, be heard publicly and do anything constructive for the betterment of our society. That changed. Think back with me to a time when gay and lesbian clergy were not permitted to preach, become ordained, or pastor churches in many of our mainline denominations. That too has changed. I am a Progressive Christian. And happy to be so. You could even go as far to say that I am very liberal in certain respects and ideologies. I live and move forward with intrepid love for all people regardless of their differences. As should, in my opinion, the rest of the Christian Church. Why? Because change has happened again, and dogmatic Christian fundamentalism only divides humanity’s beautiful variety, as opposed to aiding its social betterment and survival. The Church has a tenacious tendency to demonize change and often ravenously attempts to deconstruct the inevitable changes and progression of society. Consider the fact that many from the LGBT community contribute; even lead, in both the Church and our society greatly. What many perceive as an ancient, putrid and sinister evil among the Church (LGBT’s), should be rethought because the face of the post-modern Christian has changed. James R. Lowell is quoted as saying, “Time makes ancient good uncouth.” And Jesus said, “It has been said by those of old … but I say unto you …” Dr. T. Marquis Ramsey is Senior Pastor of St. Stephen Progressive Baptist Church in Thomasville, NC. He is also the Distinguished Minnie R. Smith Professor of Theology and Divinity at The Institute for Divinity Research.
