Sounds of Summer Arts United concert series returns to downtown BY LISA WALL Editor
Musicians from across the state will help ready residents for weekends in July as the Sunset Sounds concert series returns to the bandstand in downtown Thomasville. Bring a blanket or chairs and a picnic basket as Arts United for Davidson County kicks off its annual series on July 1 with the Tom Holladay Orchestra. Each Thurs-
day in the month, bands representing different genres of music will entertain crowds from 7 to 9 p.m. as trains roll through scenic downtown. In the event of rain, the concert will move to Central Recreation Center on East Main Street. “I think it’s a wonderful opportunity for folks to come out and listen to the different types of music,” said Doris Brown, executive director of Arts United of Davidson County. “We’ll have an orchestra, a
gospel group, country music, bluegrass and a brass band. It’s a great opportunity for everyone to hear the different types of music we have in our culture today.” On July 8, New Wine gospel band will take the stage, followed by the Scott Huffman Band on July 15, Giannini Brass Band on July 22 and Ken McIver Davis and Steve Lindsley on July 29. Brown says Sunset Sounds was

State compliance brings sigh of relief BY ERIN WILTGEN Staff Writer
Davidson County commissioners sure found something to celebrate at their Tuesday night meeting. Only half-joking, the board discussed a few celebratory antics amidst a roar of laughter after commissioners unanimously approved a contract to attach the last county school to the sewer system and meet DENR guidelines. “We started more than 20 years ago, getting our schools in compliance,” said Chairman Dr. Max Walser. “So, it is a significant thing.” The $1.25 million contract to Triangle Grading and Paving in Burlington — the lowest bidder — will complete sewer improve-

Elaine Marshall sealed her nomination as the Democratic Party candidate for U.S. Senate in the runoff election Tuesday, defeating Cal Cunningham in a resounding victory. Cunningham conceded just after 9 p.m. with 38 precincts reporting when Marshall had 62 percent of the votes. Marshall ended up garnering 60 percent of the votes to Cunningham’s 40, winning her second attempt at a U.S. primary. “We’re excited to have Elaine Marshall as our nominee,” said North Carolina Democratic Party Chair David Young. “We also congratulate the runner-up, Cal Cunningham, a rising star in our party who ran an impressive campaign.” Marshall, who has served as North Carolina’s Secretary of State for more than a decade, failed to get the 40 percent of votes in the May 4 primary needed to win an election outright, taking 36 percent to Cunning-
much money as we’ve spent in compliance with the state, I think we need a little celebration.” Walser added that if Kepley provided the outhouse, he would provide the match. Laura Vanhoy, Utility Systems administrator, told the board that the bid matched expectations and came within the county’s budget. “Bids actually came in very close to what we had anticipated and very close together,” Vanhoy said. “We expect it to go very well. We’re well within our budget for this project.” The next lowest bidder was D.H. Griffin Infrastructure, LLC, of Greensboro at $1.33 million. Triangle Grading and Paving is prepared to start work immediately.

ham’s 27 percent. Finally emerging victorious, the Secretary of State will face Republican Sen. Richard Burr in November. “She’s been fighting for people in North Carolina for a long time, before she was an elected official,” said Thomas Mills with the Marshall campaign. “She got into politics as a way to get things done.” About 200,000 votes were cast in the runoff Tuesday, a number which includes votes for a few congressional runoff races, as well. A little more than 158,000 people voted in the Senate runoff, compared to the 425,000 votes cast for the Senate race in May. Only 2,248 Davidson County residents showed at the polls for the runoff

REPUBLICAN RUNOFF Greg Dority won the Republican primary runoff Tuesday for the U.S. House 12th District seat, beating opponent Scott Cumbie. Resident of Washington, N.C., Dority garnered 51.7 percent of the votes, defeating Cumbie’s 48.3 percent even though he lost the vote count in five of the district’s six counties. Cumbie won the May 4 primary with 39.49 percent of the votes, just short of the 40 percent needed to win outright. Dority captured 34.4 percent for second place, and William “Doc” Gillenwater came in third. Dority will face Democratic incumbent and Charlotte resident U.S. Rep. Mel Watt, as well as Lon Cecil, a Libertarian candidate from High Point, in the November election.

Choir proďŹ ciency test MUSICALLY SPEAKING
JOSEF WALKER Guest Columnist
A few years ago, I had the good fortune to attend a national conference of Presbyterian Association of Musicians held at Westminster College. It was a wonderful week filled with study, concerts, lectures, master classes in organ and workshops in choral conducting. It was there that I met John Ferguson of Saint Olaf College who conducted the workshops in choral conducting. Mornings and early afternoons were filled with study and workshops. Late afternoon and evenings were filled with concerts and performances of the choral music we had worked on during the day. The attendees were conductors, choirmasters and organists from across the United States. When you have 200-300 professional church musicians assembled in one place you can bet the music is on a grand scale and beautifully performed; the kind of singing that would give you goose bumps. Where and whenever musicians gather, there is not only good music but also a great number of musicians gifted with a great sense of humor. One of my colleagues who attended the conference, was Choirmaster of a large church in Pittsburgh, Pa. After the evening services each night, a group of us would gather in my room to laugh and make jokes. The idea for this test belonged to the guy from Pittsburg, but each evening we would come up with more “stuff � to add to the test. The following is the collaborative effort of all of us and I hope you enjoy it.
Choir Proficiency Test
In order to measure your level of proficiency as a choir member, the following test has been carefully developed by experts. Read and reflect on each situation and then select the option that will enhance the quality of the performance: 1. You are enter-

ing the choir loft on Sunday morning and suddenly trip and fall down. You should: a. Assume a kneeling position and break into fervent prayer. b. Pretend that you’ve had a heart attack. c. Crawl into the nearest chair. d. Begin speaking in tongues. 2. You are a soprano and count incorrectly. As a result you boom out a high “C� one measure too soon. You should: a. Slide into an inspired “O For a Thousand Tongues to Sing!� b. Look triumphant and hold on to the note. c. Stop abruptly in mid squawk but keep you lips moving. d. Sink to the floor in shame. 3. After all those long, hard rehearsals, you show up 20 minutes late for the Christmas Cantata. You should: a. Climb into the back row of the choir from the baptistry. b. Enter pretending to be a soundman checking cables and then suddenly slip yourself into one of the seats in the choir. c. Turn the lights out in the church and slip into the choir during the blackout. d. Read M. Stephen’s pamphlet “Techniques for Tardy Appearances.� 4. While singing, you discover you only have one page of a two-page hymn. You should: a. Hum for your life. b. Sing “watermelon, watermelon, watermelon.� c. Try to get another hymnal out of the choir rack with your feet. d. Sing the first page over again. 5. Inevitably that dreaded big sneeze occurs toward the end of the choir’s anthem. You should: a. As you sneeze, come down hard on your neighbor’s foot to create a diversion.
b. Try to make it harmonize. c. Sneeze into the hair of the choir member in front of you to muffle the noise. d. Sink to the floor in shame. Count the number of each letter you checked and find your proficiency rating below: Four or more A’s: there is nothing more you need to know to be a first-rate choir member. Four or more B’s: your church choir reflexes are fully developed and you should do well in choir. Four or more C’s: your church choral experience is spotty but your team spirit is on target. (You will be an asset to most any choir) Four or more D’s: it is recommended you take up soccer or group therapy counseling. Singing in the church choir is a good opportunity to grow. The music may be challenging but the rewards of accomplishment you realize from it are something long-lasting that will increase your appreciation of music and of the effort necessary to make it “good music.� It’s not all work, actually its a lot of fun, too. I know of choir members who come to rehearsals at the point of exhaustion and leave jubilant and inspired. The big plus is this: the learning experience and the laughter and fellowship of friends makes it easy to keep a song in your heart!

as opposed to the 4,581 people who voted in the Democratic Senate primary alone on May 4. Cunningham, a Lexington attorney, was quick to endorse Marshall after her victory, keeping a strong and united front for the Democratic ticket going into the General Election. “I commend her for running an extremely impressive campaign, one that has shown tenacity and grit,� the Davidson County native said. “She has overcome some tremendous odds to show North Carolinians the type of character that we would expect of our next U.S. Senator.� Cunningham called on Democrats to come together to focus on the party’s true opponent — Sen. Burr. “Any differences she and I might have had in this campaign pale in comparison to our differences with Richard Burr,� Cunningham said. Burr himself extended his congratulations to Marshall and acknowledged the differences between him and the Democratic candidate. “The Democrat’s primary has shown that North Carolina voters will have a clear choice in November between two vastly different directions for our country,� Burr said. “I am proud of
GRACIOUS IN DEFEAT After a hard-fought campaign, Davidson County native Cal Cunningham conceded to opponent Elaine Marshall, who won the Democratic primary runoff election for U.S. Senate with 60 percent of the votes. After endorsing his former opponent, Cunningham turned to thank his supporters for their help in the long journey. “Thank you, thank you, thank you for all the incredible work we’ve done together,� he said. “Thank you to the voters of North Carolina. Thank you for the opportunity to come in front of you, to offer up this choice.� A family man to the end, Cunningham also acknowledged the sacrifices — and the support — of his wife and children. The Lexington family has traveled together throughout the state during the campaign. “This has been a family endeavor, this has been something we’ve done together,� Cunningham said. “From my family to yours, thank you, thank you, thank you.� my record of less spending and smaller federal government, and I trust the voters of North Carolina to pick a Senator that reflects their vision for our state and nation.� Leaders of the North Carolina Democratic Party also highlighted how Marshall differs from Burr and feel confident that their candidate is the better one, calling Burr one of the more vulnerable Republican candidates in the country. “Elaine Marshall is not afraid to stand up to powerful special interests,� Young said. “As North Carolina’s first female Secretary of State, she cracked down on fraud and abuse and held Wall Street banks accountable

The trouble with world opinion BY MONA CHAREN Syndicated Columnist Do we care what the world thinks of us? Should we? A new survey of global opinion is getting the usual respectful attention. The Pew Global Attitudes Project surveyed people in 57 countries and found that President Obama’s approval ratings have slipped a bit among Europeans, Latin Americans, and Asians — though he remains quite a bit more popular than George W. Bush was in his final year in office. (Obama is far better liked abroad than he is at home.) Liberals tend to care a great deal about the way America is perceived globally and will doubtless be gratified that their pin-up continues to score well in Brussels and Timbuktu. They remind us that Thomas Jefferson himself bowed to a “decent respect for the opinions of mankind” when drafting the Declaration of Independence. Jefferson had never attended a session of the United Nations Human Rights Council. On June 18, the council voted by acclamation to select Miguel D’Escoto Brockmann to serve on its Advisory Committee. D’Escoto, a defrocked priest who served as foreign minister for Nicaragua’s communist Sandinista government in the 1980s, was fully implicated in that regime’s multiple and grievous human rights abuses. This is not D’Escoto’s first high-level posting at the U.N. He served as president of the General Assembly from 2008 to 2009, during which time he warmly embraced Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and described the U.S. invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq as “atrocities that must be condemned and repudiated by all who believe in the rule of law in international relations.” He branded Ronald Reagan as an “international outlaw” and suggested that Israel is “crucifying our Palestinian brothers and sisters.” Well, perhaps the U.N. Human Rights Council isn’t the best measure of world opinion. Even stipulating that the U.N. represents only the twisted posturing of a largely unelected, corrupt, and cynical collection of thugs, are global opinion polls useful guides to anything? Did you know that 63 percent of Turks, according to one recent survey, approve of polygamy? Americans, one suspects, pay far more attention to these global popularity contests than other nations. Can you imagine Vladimir Putin or Hu Jintao poring over these results? Ah, 50 percent of Germans have a favorable view of Russia compared with only 38 percent of Brazilians! Fifty-eight percent of Indonesians like the
Chinese, but only 39 percent of Mexicans feel the same! Summon our image-makers! President Obama’s most concerted effort since taking office has been to improve America’s image in the Muslim world. The president’s first interview was granted to Al Arabiya. He traveled to Cairo to sprinkle the fairy dust, and filmed a fawning New Year’s message to the gangsters who rule in Tehran. He has sent multiple envoys, most notably Sen. John Kerry, to woo Syria’s brutal Bashar al-Assad. With what result? As this survey indicates, Obama has achieved very little in terms of popularity in Muslim lands. After a short spike following the inauguration, approval of America has fallen fast. The number of Egyptians expressing confidence in Obama fell from 41 to 31 percent, and in Turkey from 33 percent to 23 percent. The Pew report notes that “Last year only 13 percent of Pakistani Muslims expressed confidence in Obama, but this year even fewer (8 percent) hold this view.” Who knows why so many respondents in Muslim countries are disappointed in Obama? It’s possible, based on the way rumors and conspiracy theories metastasize in that part of the world, that many believed our president was actually a Muslim Manchurian candidate and have been disappointed in the reality. It’s possible they expected a complete repudiation of Israel, rather than the icy disdain this administration has shown. It’s hard enough to interpret the views of our own voters — South Carolina Democratic primary anyone? —he motives of foreigners are even more mysterious. OK, popularity is slipping, but perhaps the apology tour/charm offensive has yielded dividends in policy support? Not so much. Syria has clutched Iran even closer to her bosom than before and has recently transferred Scud missiles to Hezbollah in Lebanon — all while the U.S. continues to grovel to al-Assad. Iran is racing toward nuclear status while essentially dropping the fig leaf of “peaceful” energy. Turkey, the Muslim nation with the warmest ties to the West, has accelerated its turn toward jihadism. Brazil has spurned the U.S. by embracing Iran and Turkey. Machiavelli provides ballast for Jefferson: “And that prince who bases his power entirely on ... words, finding himself completely without other preparations, comes to ruin.”
Obama, lord of the rigs VIEWPOINT
DAVID HARSANYI Syndicated Columnist Your moral bearings obviously have been corrupted by high concentrations of carbon dioxide. You’ve gotten past that scandalous word — “oil” — for a moment and begun to wonder who gave the administration the authority to shut down a vital regional industry without a shred of scientific evidence or tangible safety concern. Perhaps it’s just that unshakable affection you have for BP (Exxon is also dreamy), but you wonder aloud how the administration has the power to extract $20 billion from a corporate partner — without congressional or independent oversight or even an executive order — and then name a political appointee to head up the fund and allow him to mete out the money any way he sees fit. You’re pretty sure, judging from the administration’s track record — from “stimulus” to the health care legislation to fiscal reform and so on — that it would be patently absurd to trust it could divvy out billions without attaching political considerations. Then again, you’re a coallovin’ shill. No, it doesn’t matter that Barack Obama
was the top recipient of BP’s political action committee and individual bucks over the past 20 years. It is irrelevant that BP was a founding member of the U.S. Climate Action Partnership and lobbies for cap-and-trade schemes. According to The Wall Street Journal, in fact, the administration’s compensation fund has a little something for BP, as well. “In the end,” the piece states, “one aim of the fund — and a prime reason BP agreed to it — will be to minimize lawsuits against the company.” To minimize lawsuits against the company is the function of Kenneth Feinberg — with imperial experience as auto bailout “compensation czar” — who went on to say that he “will have to make an offer — ‘You take this amount in full satisfaction of your claim, but only if you waive your right to future litigation.’” If BP had independently begun to offer similar ultimatums to Gulf-area citizens, rest assured Interior Secretary Ken Salazar would have unleashed one of his boot-tothe-throat smackdowns as he faced off against imaginary enemies near and far. Salazar was the one who told Congress that experts backed his plan for a blanket moratorium on further deep-water drilling, when experts had said nearly the opposite. (Salazar later apologized.) Many engineers, in fact, warn that shutting down wells and then restarting drilling — with the migration of drill rigs, technology and human capital — would only increase risk in the long run. And on Tuesday, some nitrous oxide-loving fed-
eral judge in New Orleans blocked the executive overreach, saying the administration “simply cannot justify the immeasurable effect on the plaintiffs, the local economy, the Gulf region, and the critical present-day aspect of the availability of domestic energy in this country.” Nor can the administration justify the escrow fund. BP already had pledged to waive the $75 million liability cap Congress had bequeathed the company. It had written 31,000 checks totaling more than $100 million before the compensation fund was established. There were very few complaints — other than political ones aimed at Barack Obama. Surely The American Trial Lawyers Association could enlighten the White House to the benefit and fairness of class action suits. If the arrangement is broken or too slow, shouldn’t we have some tort reformed? Is it really “mediation” when the administration and an oil company collude to decide what’s best for the victims? As many on the left have argued for years, simply because we have an emergency or threat — the war on terror, for example — is no excuse to abuse executive power or ignore our excellent legal system. Or does all that change because oil is involved? David Harsanyi is a columnist at The Denver Post and the author of “Nanny State.” Visit his website at www.DavidHarsanyi.com.

Woman arrested for assault, theft from mother TIMES STAFF REPORT On June 18, 2010, Davidson County Sheriff Deputies responded to 1318 North NC Hwy 109, located just north of Thomasville, in regards to a possible domestic situation. When deputies arrived, they spoke to the homeowner, who advised that their daughter, who had not been living at that residence for sometime, had returned to pick up some of her belongings. At that time, the daughter, Alexis Nichole Grimm, 18, stole two rings. When the mother confronted her about the rings, Grimm assaulted her.
Grimm was arrested and charged with felony larceny and assault and battery. Liea Troi Hobson, 20, of Winston-Salem, was also present at the residence with Grimm at the time of the incident. Davidson County Sheriff Deputies were able to get information that Hobson was wanted out of Forsyth County for felony child abuse. Hobson was arrested at the scene. Both subjects were taken to the magistrate, where Grimm received a $1,500 secured bond and Hobson was given a $5,000 secured bond. Both were placed in the Davidson County Jail.
Two charged in breaking and entering, larceny TIMES STAFF REPORT On June 19, 2010, Davidson County Sheriff Deputies responded to 586 Handy Road, located near Denton, in regards to a person who went into an outbuilding without the owners consent and attempted to take a radiator. The homeowner confronted the suspect in the outbuilding. At that time, the suspect dropped the radiator, got back into the passenger seat of the car he was traveling in and left the scene. The homeowner managed to get the license plate number as the vehicle sped off. The homeowner called 911 and Davidson County Sheriff Deputies responded within minutes to the area. Due to the speedy response time, Davidson County Sheriff Deputies were able to locate the vehicle leaving the area and made a traffic stop on it. Tony Ray Garner Jr., 30, of Asheboro, and Harold Bryce Kinley, 24, of Asheboro, were positively identified and were
arrested for breaking and entering and larceny. Both were presented to the magistrate and received a $6,000 secure bond. Both were placed in the Davidson County Jail. Both suspects have a court date of July 12, 2010.

In stark contrast to their last contest, the Post 87 HiToms won their 11th game of the season Tuesday by hanging onto an early lead en route to a 9-7 decision over the Proehlific Power in an abbreviated seveninning game. The Power requested the change as the team was set to leave town on its scheduled trip to Omaha for a tournament in the Midwest. Three days after falling behind early, taking the lead and falling short late, the HiToms dropped the hammer from the early innings of the game. The Power did score a pair of runs in the second off starter Tyler Southcott, but failed to produce any more until Post 87 had already sprinted to a 7-2 lead at the close of the fourth. Southcott left the field having pitched those four successful innings, scattering four hits and the two runs which came in the second. “That was a team win,” Post 87 coach Rob Shore said with a certain level of excitement. “Every-

Race to Chase begins this weekend NASCARMEDIA.COM DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. — Securing a spot in the Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup means doing the math: 10 tracks plus 10 weeks equals intense competition. The “Race to the Chase” — the 10-week stretch that begins Sunday at New Hampshire Motor Speedway and ends Saturday, Sept. 11 at
Tar Heels wait to hear names called in draft
Richmond International Raceway — determines the lineup for the Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup. After race No. 26 at Richmond, the top 12 drivers in the standings compete for the NASCAR Sprint Cup title during the final 10 events. They lock down those spots during the Race to the Chase, a summer gauntlet that includes
many highlights, notably the traditional Fourth of July weekend race at Daytona International Speedway and the Brickyard 400 at historic Indianapolis Motor Speedway. The demands begin immediately. Sunday’s LENOX Industrial Tools 301 at 1.058-mile New Hampshire takes place on a flat track distinguished by its deceptively difficult turns and tight radiuses.
The July 3 event at Daytona features 2.5-miles of high-banked, high-speed action — with all the accompanying holiday fireworks. The July 11 event at Chicagoland Speedway, a 1.5-mile tri-oval, is a growing tradition — Saturday-night action for a third consecutive year. Following an off week,

The team of (L-R) Stacy Dillon, Scott Isley, Jerry Kilcrease and Doug Hill finished in second place at the Thomasville Rotary Golf Tournament held at Winding Creek on Wednesday. The first-place team left before all scores were in.
CHAPEL HILL — When former North Carolina player Marcus Ginyard sits down today at his brother’s house in Maryland to watch the NBA draft (7 p.m., ESPN), he knows that his will not be one of the 60 names called out. But Ginyard, who earned the reputation as a defensive specialist after five seasons in Chapel Hill, still plans on watching the draft in support of his former teammates, Ed Davis and Deon Thompson. Davis is likely to be UNC’s fourth top-10 pick since 2005 — multiple mock drafts have him going to the Detroit Pistons at No. 7. Thompson, who is not listed on any mock drafts, has an outside shot of getting drafted late in the second round. But Ginyard also has personal motives for watching the broadcast. Even though he knows his name won’t be called, he’ll be keeping an eye on what moves each team makes in hopes of landing on a summer league squad. “I’ll definitely be watching the draft,” Ginyard said. “It’s still a big thing to figure out what teams are going to be doing with the rosters and where I might fit in on one of them.” Ginyard had just one workout — with the Charlotte Bobcats on Friday — before the draft and is realistic about what the future holds for him. His dream is to play in the NBA, but he also knows he might have to take an indirect route to get there. “I’m definitely not to worried about the draft,” Ginyard said. “Again, a lot of people, they get caught up in the whole draft process, but there’s a lot of opportunities outside of the draft to still make a roster in the NBA. So that’s not the end all, be all for me.” For now, Ginyard is focused on making a summer league team but said that playing overseas also is an option. He said he has sent tapes to some European clubs, but now he’s just waiting to see what happens. “I think that the biggest focus for me is just continuing to stay determined and continuing to stay focused, to be ready for any opportunity that does come up,” said Ginyard, who spent the week helping out at UNC’s basketball camp. “Not to get my head down, being worried about going here or there, but just be ready to perform when I do get a chance to go somewhere.” Thompson’s name may not appear on any mock

Castles and More
Building With Sand Have you ever been to a beach? Playing in the sand is always a favorite activity while visiting the shore. Kids usually build castles, cities or other structures out of sand. But did you know that adults are sand sculptors too? In honor of summer (which officially begins June 21), The Mini Page talked with experts in sand sculpting to find out more about this unusual art.
Top to bottom After the sand is pounded, the sculptor removes the form and is ready to carve it away to create an artwork. He or she begins at the top and works down. Artists might use garden tools such as shovels or trowels to begin removing the sand. For creating details, they use palette knives, brushes and shapes, such as cones and funnels.
All about sand
This dragon was just part of a project that used 60 tons of sand. This sand sculpture of a boy sleeping next to a castle was built in 2006 at the Opryland Hotel in Nashville, Tenn. The sculptor started with eight tons of sand.
Getting started For large projects, sculptors build a frame and fill it with tons of wet sand. A box 6 feet by 8 feet and 2 feet high will hold about 15 tons of sand. Then the artist begins compacting it — pounding it with a special machine to make it solid and strong.

How does sand hold together for artists to make shapes out of it? It’s all about water — lots of water. Water acts like a suction cup between two grains of sand. Grains of sand from the ocean are “older� and have been rolled smooth by the tides over time. Sculptor Ted Siebert told us that silt from the banks of rivers makes a good sand for sculpting. This sand is “newer� and still has sharp edges, which allows water to get caught between the grains. Water’s ability to grab onto the grains is called surface tension.

Natural materials Sand sculpting is an environmentally friendly art, Ted Siebert told us. “Everything is reusable; there’s nothing toxic,� he said. Indoor sculptures can last for weeks. Rain and wind will eventually “melt� outdoor sand castles. “You enjoy the beauty in the moment,� he said. “It’s nice to be able to say, ‘I built that.’�

Supersport: Ndamukong Suh Height: 6-4 Birthdate: 1-6-1987 Weight: 300 Hometown: Portland, Ore.
Ndamukong Suh is about the last guy opposing quarterbacks and running backs want to seeing coming at them. But NFL backs will have to brace for the impact. Suh is coming soon as a member of the Detroit Lions, the team that picked him second overall in the pro football draft in April. Pronounced “En-dom-ah-ken Sue,� the hard-hitting former Nebraska defensive tackle was the Associated Press College Player of the Year in 2009. Big, strong and fast, he made 82 tackles and won virtually every major award given to a college lineman. Suh, who didn’t play football until his sophomore year in high school, will soon sign a huge contract. Generous as well as tough, he plans to donate $2 million to the University of Nebraska’s Strength and Conditioning Program and $600,000 to assist students in the College of Engineering. In the fall, keep an eye on this guy. You can be sure opposing NFL teams will.

Sifting Through the Sand
All the following jokes have something in common. Can you guess the common theme or category?
Working on the beach
Sam: Where does the sandman live when he’s not putting children to sleep? Sally: A sand castle!
Would you like a job where you could play in the sand all day? Many sand sculptors work for companies, cities, organizations or individual people. They travel the world to create special pieces of art for weddings, company anniversaries and meetings, and other events. Sandy Feet has been sand SCULPTING FOR ABOUT YEARS 4ODAY along with competing and doing professional sand sculptures, she gives lessons on the beach near her home in South Padre Island, Texas. This former high school English teacher said students of all ages enjoy learning how to make sand art.

These kids are competing in Kids ’N Kastles, part of the U.S. Open Sandcastle Competition in Imperial Beach, Calif. This year the contest takes place the weekend of Aug. 7-8.
This sculpture, called “Sun Salutation,� was created by professional Sandy Feet (also known as Lucinda Wierenga) in Playas del Coco, Costa Rica, in 2006.
The Mini Page thanks sand sculptor Ted Siebert of The Sand Sculpture Co., sculptor and teacher Lucinda Wierenga, and Bonnie Vieira with the U.S. Open Sandcastle Competition for help with this issue.
Eyes on the prize
Becoming a sculptor
For some sand artists, sculpting is a competitive sport. Sand castle competitions can be found in many areas of the United States, mostly near the coasts. But there are inland competitions, too. Contests may include several divisions, with competition for professional and amateur adults and children.
Many sand sculptors have a background in art. Some are architects, or people who are trained to design buildings. Their skills help them when constructing sand art, too.
A little sand history On the beach in Atlantic City, N.J., sand artists in the late 1800s hoped their creations would inspire passersby to throw money. But sand sculpting didn’t become popular as an artform until about 40 years ago. Today there are about 100 professional sand sculptors in North America. Next week, The Mini Page celebrates the Fourth of July with a story about marching bands.

DRAFT From page 7 drafts, but the Tar Heels’ leading scorer (13.7 ppg) said anything can happen on draft night. Thompson said he has worked out with nine or 10 teams — including the Charlotte Bobcats, Milwaukee Bucks, Houston Rockets and Detroit Pistons — and has felt confident about all his workouts. “I get a feeling that most teams like me, but you just never really truly know until the day,” said Thompson, who remained in Chapel Hill after school ended to train with the UNC coaching

Also at the meeting, commissioners held a public hearing to amend the county’s Economic Development agreement with McIntyre Metals Inc., signed in April 2007. The agreement required the company to invest $1.3 million in total improvements in the new plant, equipment and machinery and the creation of 20 full-time jobs with a minimum hourly wage of $12.75. In return, the county agreed to grant an incentive package of .0027 times the total investment not to exceed $3,500 each year for five years. However, McIntyre Metals — a manufacturer of wire metal displays — has been unable to fulfill its promise on job creation and in fact has had to layoff some employees. “They have met requirements for investment, but, due to the economy, their job numbers have not measured up to what the contract called for,” said Steve Googe, executive director of the Davidson County Economic Development Commission. Googe, on behalf of the EDC, appealed to the board to amend the policy to allow the company to receive a portion of the incentive grant even if it didn’t meet the job requirement as long as the county unemployment rate reached 10 percent or higher for at least one of the six preceding months. The county’s unemployment sat at 12.1 percent for May, but has been declining steadily. “This is a request that goes back to some guideline revisions that you approved back in the early summer of last year,” Googe said. “We’re asking you to set it up on a sliding scale, that if they do half the jobs that they agreed to do, we pay them half of what we agreed to pay them for that year.”

staff. “I feel good about what I’ve done up until this point.” Thompson, who stands at 6-9 and 245 pounds, said he thinks he has the size and ability to play in the NBA. Like Ginyard, Thompson said he will try to get on a summer league roster if he doesn’t hear his name tonight. “It’s all about finding that right fit, the right team, that right situation,” said Thompson, who plans on watching the draft with his family back home in Torrance, Calif. But even though

From page 7 body played. When we had some trouble, we had somebody to come right in and pick them up. That’s what team baseball is all about.” The trouble came in the fifth, when the Power loaded the bases with consecutive walks for Craig Erskine, who came through with a two-run double. He later came around to score the fourth run in the frame and made the score 7-6. An uneventful top half of the sixth left the HiToms clinging to a one-run lead until Brock Hudgens added the exclamation point in the bottom of the inning with a two-run blast to put the game out of reach at 9-6.
“It was a 2-2 count. Being a pitcher and all, I throw a curveball and changeup (typically late in the count), so I was looking for a change-up, got a hold of it and hit the home run,” Hudgens said. “It’s a team thing. We wouldn’t have gotten all those runs because of me. It all works out as we come along.” Several of the runs came courtesy of DeSean Anderson, who returned from having fractured bones in his hand and went 2-for-3 with a walk, a run scored and two RBI. Ben Fultz also tripled and scored a pair of runs for Post 87 (11-4). “We hit the ball well,” added Shore. “We’ve got everybody back now, which really helped with our hitting. We also played well defensively. Last time, we made some bad errors. This time, we made the routine defensive plays.”

Thompson admitted he doesn’t know what to expect tonight, he said he’s going to try to say positive. “Whatever happens, you just can’t get too high, you can’t get too low — it’s something Coach [Roy] Williams told me,” Thompson said. “I expect good things to happen, so I’m not going to put my expectations too high. “If I do get drafted, of course, that will be a blessing. But if not, there’s still other ways, other doors that can lead to where I eventually want to be.”
