Davidson County unemployment decreased by .2 percent in May, according to Friday’s statistics released by the Employment Security Commission of North Carolina, joining 86 of North Carolina’s counties in continuing the trend of dropping unemployment.

Still above the statewide 9.9 percent, Davidson County’s May unemployment sits at 11.9 percent, just slightly lower than April’s 12.1 percent.

“It’s always good news when unemployment decreases,” said Andy James, ESC’s director of public information. “The unfortunate thing is it’s a fairly slight decrease.

We’re optimis‘This is news tic that things may be getting that show a little better. that the This is news that shows that economy in the economy in North CaroNorth Carolina is pretty much lina is pretty stable, it’s not much stable.’ really going rapidly in any way or the other.”

— Andy James Employed North workers across Carolina the state inESC creased by 6,498 workers, up to 4,096,660.

The number of people unemployed decreased by 9,079.

“A majority of North Carolina’s counties experienced a decline in their unemployment rates,” said ESC Chairman Lynn R. Holmes. “Some counties benefited from seasonal hiring, which is typical this time of year.”

Some of the seasonal employment is jobs with the census.

“Those people are happy to get hired,” James said. “But they are relatively temporary jobs, so people getting hired in full time retail and construction jobs, we’re happy about those.”

One of the reason for the decrease is that jobs that were announced a few months ago were finally filled in May. “Gov. Beverly Perdue and her economic engine have been announc-

LEXINGTON — Davidson County Community College has taken both its community and environmental involvement to a whole new level.

On May 24, right after graduation, staff and students began planting the school’s first community garden to not only teach students and community volunteers the benefits of environmentally friendly gardening and provide hands-on lessons but also to provide needy families in Davidson and Davie counties with fresh vegetables.

“Our goal is for this to be kind of like a learning lab,” said Holly Weir, biology instructor and sustainability programs admin across campus. “We at least want people to come out and learn how to garden in an environmentally friendly way.”

The garden — which contains corn, beans, five different kinds of tomatoes, okra, zucchini, squash, cucumber, cantaloupe and pepper — is located behind the Gee building parking lot on the DCCC campus. Even only five weeks in, Weir said they’ve discovered they need an improved watering system.

“This is one of the hottest summers,” she said. “We’ve learned that we’re going to need a large cistern. We’re learning as we go along.”

In fact, moisture has proven to be

TRIAD – A leader in the state House of Representatives said he expects quick passage of a bill that would allow voters to decide this fall whether to bar felons from serving as a county sheriff in North Carolina.

Rep. Hugh Holliman, D-Davidson and House majority leader, said the bill that passed in the state Senate Wednesday was assigned Thursday for consideration by a House committee.

“I think it will pass and move quick-

If the House approves the Bingham legislation Holliman as passed by the Senate, the constitutional amendment referendum issue would be set for the Nov. 2 general election ballot.

7 ways to build a garden on a shoestring ADVICE

MARY HUNT Syndicated Columnist

It’s easy to spend a lot of money at the garden center this time of year, but it’s not necessary.

In fact, if you get clever, you’ll be able to keep your yard and garden looking beautiful on a shoestring! Here are a few ideas to develop your inner frugal gardener: — Bye-bye, aphids.

Plant four or five peeled cloves of garlic near the bases of your rosebushes. In a few days, all the aphids will disappear.

This nontoxic treatment is natural and remains effective for a long time.

— Share yard tools. It’s unlikely that any one family will use all of its yard and garden tools all the time. That’s why it makes sense to share the cost and the use of expensive equipment.

You’ll need to decide who services the shared lawn mower or stores the rakes and leaf blower.

If you are flexible, it’s a great way to reduce the cost of homeownership.

— Hummingbirds, no bees. If you apply Vaseline to the feeding spouts of your hummingbird feeder, the bees will not bother it. The Vaseline makes the bees get stuck, which they don’t like.

Meanwhile, the hummingbirds are unharmed by this sticky situation.

— Perfect pool filter.

Position a piece of nylon hosiery or a knee-high over the end of a garden hose, tying it securely.

While you fill your swimming pool, this will act as a fine filter to catch all of the sediment from the pipes that you do not want clogging up your pool filter.

— Dirt-cheap.

Next time you are at the home improvement center or garden store, ask about “ripped bags” containing dirt or mulch. Typically when the bags become torn, contents are re-bagged and sold for half-price.

— Sheer coverage. Stop buying flimsy, expensive row covers to protect garden veggies from hail, cabbage butterflies, leaf miners and other airborne menaces. Instead, purchase old sheer nylon curtains at garage sales and thrift shops. These are usually cheap (or even free from family and friends, if they know you’ll take them off their hands) and will last for many years. Sheers repel hail and hot sun, yet they let in plenty of light, air and rain. After har-

vest, shake out the dirt, launder in hot water and store for next season.

— Almost-free landscaping. You can get shrubs and other plants for your yard and garden for free (or just the cost of transporting and transplanting) if you know where to look.

Many nurseries have “boneyards,” where they toss plants they deem unworthy of sale.

Neighbors and strangers alike will often give you cuttings, seeds or divisions of plants you admire. If you know anyone who is part of the grounds crew of a large college or university, ask him or her to pass along any goodies he or she removes at work.

OPINION

Thomasville Times MICHAEL B. STARN Publisher mstarn@hpe.com • LYNN WAGNER Advertising Director lwagner@hpe.com

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

The meaning of Orszag President Obama’s budget director Peter Orszag, who supposedly made “nerdy sexy,” is skedaddling from Washington before the huge budgetary Potemkin facades he erected come crashing down.

Orszag was the numberscrunching guru who supplied the economic myths, er, rationale for Obamacare.

The 2000-page, trillion-dollar program would actually “bend the cost curve” down over the next decade, Orszag argued, without sacrificing quality and while serving 30 million new recipients. Uh-huh. It has only been three months since this Byzantine, but in any case unread, behemoth was passed; yet already, the Congressional Budget Office has acknowledged that the legislation will cost $200 billion more than was projected at the time of passage.

The other economic assumptions undergirding Obamanomics — such as the idea that every dollar of stimulus spending would yield $1.50 in economic expansion — have been similarly short-lived. But as the budget director makes for the exits in advance of the sheriff, we should not let him go without reflecting on his peculiar social significance.

Orszag was hardly the first prominent Washingtonian to lead a complicated personal life — but he may have been the first to achieve celebrity because of it. In January, Orszag made the gossip columns twice. The first accomplishment — the divorced father of two had just become a father again with ex-girlfriend Claire Milonas. Just weeks later, the father of three announced his engagement to ABC news correspondent Bianna Golodryga.

The Washington Post gossip column gushed: “Peter Orszag! What is it about that guy, and how did he become the Tom Brady of D.C.? ... The romantic drama heightens the mystique surrounding President Obama’s youngest Cabinet-level appointee, who, in a city full of wonks, enjoyed a brief unlikely reign as Washington’s most eligible bachelor before his engagement. Something about those Harold Ramis-in’Ghostbusters’ looks, on a 6-2 marathoner’s frame, inspired Internet fan pages like Orszagasm.com. ‘He made nerdy sexy,’ Rahm Emanuel told the New York Times last year.”

Cultural bellwether Jon Stewart — albeit with sarcasm and nonchalant polymorphous sexuality — joined in the adulation of the foxy policy guy.

Orszag and his ex, the mother of his new daughter, released a statement perfectly capturing the sexual morality

that prevails in 21st century America. “We were in a committed relationship until the spring of 2009. In November, Claire gave birth to a beautiful baby girl. Although we are no longer together, we are both thrilled she is happy and healthy, and we would hope that everyone will respect her privacy.” A “committed” relationship lasts only as long as both parties continue to feel committed.

If Orszag were a nevermarried single man dating prominent Washington women while being swooned over by a peculiar subset of women we can call policy groupies, that would be one thing. Perhaps not a very interesting thing, but there it is.

But he is divorced and the father of three. Just as a thought experiment, consider how a similarly situated woman would be covered: If a 41-year-old divorced mother of two young children were to have another child with a boyfriend and then announce her engagement to a third man, would she be considered a “hot” celebrity? The Obama administration’s “unlikely sex god” (Washington Post)?

Would she escape censure if she maintained no relationship with the new baby?

Observing this double standard in years past, feminists strove to have women judged by the same standards as men. They didn’t succeed (even if they tell themselves they did). But isn’t it odd that they never attempted the opposite? What’s really needed is for men like Orszag to be judged as a woman, a mother, would be judged in identical circumstances. She would not be celebrated for jumping from bed to bed. She would be disgraced for abandoning a newborn. And so should he be.

This panting admiration for a guy who behaves like a cad displays caveman morality.

Oh, look how virile the skinny intellectual is! What a gorgeous gal he’s squiring today!

Yes, it’s understood that there are basic differences between the sexes and women are characteristically less given to abandoning their infant children than men are. But that’s irrelevant to the moral argument. A sensible society will stigmatize behavior that harms children. If women find it a little easier to comply, good for them. And by the way, for all the inarguable inequalities in treatment of men and women in pre-sexual revolution days, Orszag’s behavior would have been unthinkable for a respectable man.

Still should be.

Obama missteps on McChrystal VIEWPOINT

STEVE CHAPMAN Syndicated Columnist In making and tolerating disparaging comments about his civilian superiors in front of a reporter, Gen. Stanley McChrystal failed a test of leadership, judgment and respect for his role in a democratic government. But most obviously, he failed an IQ test.

Popping off about people in the Obama administration in the presence of a journalist can be characterized by many adjectives.

“Smart” is not one of them.

By any reasonable standard, President Obama had ample cause to sack him.

But if he thought McChrystal was the right person to lead the U.S. effort in Afghanistan before the latest issue of Rolling Stone came out, he should have stuck with that judgment.

The strategy Obama has embraced, after all, is the one devised by McChrystal. As the president noted in firing him, they were in complete accord on how to prosecute the war.

Gen. David Petraeus, who conceived and oversaw the surge in Iraq, is obviously competent to replace him.

But putting him in command in Afghanistan deprives the president of his services as head of Central Command, a more important job.

So he and members of his staff think the people they have to work with and answer to are morons? Guess what: Millions of Americans feel the same way about

their bosses and co-workers.

(Some soldiers feel the same way about McChrystal.)

As a rule, that doesn’t keep them from doing their jobs.

I suspect Rahm Emanuel has said worse about Obama when he gets home from a hard day at work. But unless McChrystal or Emanuel is impossibly at odds with the president on his basic policies, such expressions of frustration don’t keep them from serving him well.

The bigger problem is that the general let his discontent become public. It is a grave offense in a constitutional republic for generals to undermine their commanderin-chief. Even many conservative critics of Obama agree that McChrystal committed a “firing offense.”

But just because he deserved dismissal doesn’t mean the president should have given it to him. The embarrassment McChrystal brought on himself was enough to remind everyone that generals serve presidents, not the other way around.

It turns out Obama is not as much like Lincoln as he aspires to be.

The 16th president, who had his own war to run, had many opportunities to take umbrage at disrespectful conduct by his highest Army officers. And he repeatedly put the nation’s needs first.

Once, when Lincoln paid an evening visit to his top commander, George McClellan, the famously arrogant general came home and went to bed without so much as acknowledging the president. Lincoln shrugged it off, saying he would hold McClellan’s horse if it would produce a victory.

Eventually, he replaced the battle-shy McClellan with Joseph Hooker, who had said the country needed a dictator. Lincoln wrote Hooker, “Only those generals who gain successes, can set up dictators. What I now ask

of you is military success, and I will risk the dictatorship.” He was not about to let pride or other non-essential concerns get in the way of defeating the enemy.

Obama should have followed that example. He put McChrystal in command because he saw him as the best person to implement the strategy he sees as our best hope in Afghanistan.

McChrystal’s disdain for Joe Biden doesn’t make him any less suitable for the role.

It is tempting for a boss to fire an underling who has been caught in an act of insubordination. But what underling is less likely to commit insubordination than one who has undergone public humiliation for it?

None of this is to excuse the general’s abysmal decision to vent so freely. What was said of Napoleon’s execution of a prominent duke — “It was worse than a crime; it was a blunder” — applies here.

A general may be forgiven for an insult to civilian rule.

But McChrystal did far worse: He let down the men and women whose lives are on the line in Afghanistan.

He allowed himself to create a major distraction from the task at hand, doing a favor to the Taliban and al-Qaida. He impeded the prosecution of a war we are not winning.

But firing him is not likely to help. Here’s what Obama should have told McChrystal: “General, you screwed up big-time, and your conduct is inexcusable.

Here is your punishment: You have the most impossible job in the world, and you will keep doing it.”

A6 – Thomasville Times – Saturday, June 26, 2010

FROM PAGE A1 TREND From page A1 the not-so-little garden’s biggest issue so far. And Weir, along with the other students, staff and volunteers working on the garden, has attempted to address the issue in an environmentally friendly way. The group uses rain barrels to collect water for the plants and put straw over the seedlings to retain moisture.

“We’re trying to work on moisture retention,” Weir said. “The sun takes the moisture in the soil, especially when the humidity is really high. The straw has really helped a lot.”

Other environmentally friendly tactics come through pest prevention and fertilizers. Strips of caution tape hanging from the rope bordering the garden work to scare away any animals looking to loot for food. Deer especially pose a threat given the wooded areas on the campus.

“The wind can shake those banners and it kind of scares them away,” Weir said.

All of the fertilizers used on the plants are natural and organic — no pesticides or chemicals. When maintenance staff tilled the earth back in November, they incorporated composted leaves into the soil.

“So it’s a rich bed but a natural garden,” said Myra Thompson, DCCC public information officer.

By emphasizing methods to grow an environmentally friendly garden, Weir said she hopes to instill sustainable and green practices in the community.

“We’re trying to encourage kids in our community to do more environmentally

RIDE From page A1 ley Davidson.

Registration begins at 9 a.m., and free lunch, speakers, music and activities will be held upon return to Greensboro until 2:30 p.m. The DAV’s National Mobile Claims unit also will be on site to help with military disability claims and questions.

Transportation in the ride will be provided to those without a motorcycle on a first come first serve basis by the DAV Chapter 20 van fleet, which will follow behind the North Carolina Highway Patrol in the procession. Both veterans and civilians are invited to the event, and Chapter 20 Commander Wanda Autrey said she hopes for a good turnout.

“This is for anybody who wants to contribute back to veterans,” said Autrey, herself a retired Navy vet. “Freedom is not free. They’re disabled because they serve their community. That’s what makes this unique. Because of veterans, people have rights that they take for granted.”

friendly things,” she said, mentioning the recent oil spill as an example of how things can hurt the environment.

The garden itself serves as a living and growing classroom, teaching a range of things from sustainable gardening to the Environmental Science summer school students to how to grow a tomato to the 4 and 5-year-olds in DCCC’s Child Development Center.

“We want them to learn what it takes to grow a garden,” Weir said of DCCC students. “We want them to know that the food that you eat can be grown locally, and a garden is one of those ways.”

Weir said one lesson she tried to emphasize to her students was that locally grown food is fresh whereas imported food often is picked right before it ripens so it can ripen while its shipped.

“If we can educate them in sustainable practices, when they go into the workforce, they’ll incorporate those practices,” Weir said.

Though the younger kids don’t always assist with the physical labor, they still get a lot out of just observing the garden, learning about nutrition, plant biology and the growing cycle.

“It’s good for them, they ask a lot of questions,” Weir said. “The kids love watching the plants grow. They measure themselves on the corn.”

The larger community also benefits from the garden, not only through the fresh produce that will be donated to community agencies or given away through a farmers market, but also from the opportunity to participate in the gardening.

“If they’ve always wanted to grow a garden, they can come out and get their hands wet,” Weir said. “It’s therapeutic for a lot of people.”

Once the procession reaches the Vietnam Veterans Memorial, a short ceremony will take place, complete with a color guard performance and an official salute with 21 guns by the honor guard.

“That’s the military way,” Spencer said.

“That’s standard to give honor to the veterans who have lost their lives, to give honor to the veterans that are disabled and to give honor to the veterans because we are at war right now.”

DAV chose the Memorial as a stop on the ride not only because it’s one of the most prestigious war memorials in the area but also because of its significance to the socalled forgotten soldiers.

“That’s one of the historical sites in this community, and that’s what we want to highlight,” Autrey said. “We lost more veterans in Vietnam than any war. The Vietnam veterans were the only ones that weren’t thanked when they got back from the war. It’s a way to thank them again and to give them recognition for the service they rendered to this country.”

Money earned from the

BILL From page A1 Sen. Stan Bingham, R-Davidson and primary sponsor of Senate version of the legislation, originally introduced the bill during last year’s session. But it failed to pass the General Assembly in 2009.

A primary motive for Bingham is to prevent former Davison County Sheriff Gerald Hege, who pleaded guilty to felony obstruction of justice counts six years ago, from becoming Davidson County sheriff again.

Hege made a comeback bid during the spring primary, but was beaten soundly for the Republican Party nomination by Sheriff David Grice May 4. Hege said following the primary defeat that he was retiring from politics.

Hege was among a handful of convicted felons running for sheriff seats throughout the state this year. All were defeated in the primaries.

If the constitutional amendment is approved by voters this fall, it would preclude Hege from ever running again for sheriff in North Carolina.

Bingham said he’s asked sheriffs of both parties to contact their representatives in Raleigh to encourage a speedy House concurrence of the bill.

motorcycle ride will go to DAV, which serves disabled veterans by transporting them to and from hospitals and working with those that have become homeless.

But aside from the monetary gains, DAV’s motorcycle ride also serves to highlight and honor disabled veterans, specifically.

“These are men that went and fought for our freedom, which isn’t free, and they were hurt,” Spencer said. “Some of them came back with lost limbs, some of them came back with post traumatic stress disorders.”

Spencer said that disabled veterans not only gave up part of their lives during their time in the military, but continue to live with those sacrifices.

“Disabled veterans are people who have given their life,” Autrey said.

“If they had not gone in the war, they probably would have made more money, wouldn’t have gotten disabled. But they signed their name on the dotted line to defend this nation. It’s a great sacrifice that we take.”

Erin Wiltgen can be reached at 888-3576.

HOUSE BILL 1307 House Bill 1307 would give North Carolina voters the chance to decide in the Nov. 2 general election whether to amend the North Carolina Constitution to provide that no person convicted of a felony is eligible to be elected a county sheriff.

A Senate version of the legislation passed this week. The bill now awaits what’s known as concurrence by the House.

If a majority of votes cast in the general election are in favor of the proposal, the State Board of Elections would certify the amendment to the N.C. Secretary of State. The constitutional amendment is effective upon certification.

“I hope the House acts quickly. A lot of the legislators on the House side are going to be getting calls from their sheriffs to indicate their feelings about the importance of this,” Bingham said Thursday.

OBITUARIES Index Thomasville Emma Hanner, 81 Helen Pierce, 80 Lexington Kimberly D. Parker, 41 Other areas Karla Wilhoit, 72

Emma Hanner Emma Hall Manley Hanner of Thomasville was a pilot, a mother and a friend.

She loved f l y i n g more than anything except her children, and sometimes even that was Haner a close call. If she wasn’t above the Earth in her little Grumman airplane, she was reading a flying magazine or thumbing through TradeA-Plane just in case there was some great deal on another airplane that might make her give up her Grummy for another.

She never did.

She gave up her airplane at the age of 79, and it may have been the biggest loss of her life, right up there with her divorce from Dr. Lee Hanner, the handsome, black-haired optometrist who asked her to marry him when they were both 23.

Emma died Friday, June 25, 2010, at age 81, not really from the Alzheimer’s that robbed her ability to do the things she enjoyed, but more from a weary spirit. She just didn’t want to be here anymore, and her family can say with smiles on their faces and no trace of disrespect that they are happy that Emma has gone to that great airport in the sky.

She was too smart and too independent to suffer the indignities of this creeping, cruel disease.

Emma spent only six months at The Stratford at Flatirons, a wonderful assisted-living facility in Broomfield, Colorado, where she was treated with great love and kindness. But her body with-

DECREASE From page A1 ing jobs over the last year and a half almost every week,” James said. “It could take a long time from when jobs are announced to when they come to fruition. You had some of that — you had people hired to some of these jobs that were announced months ago.”

Another possibility stems from pure mathematics — a drop in the number of people looking for jobs can make it seem like a county’s unemployment fell.

“Some people stopped looking for a job because they haven’t been able to find them for months and months,” James said, adding that the mixture of a decreased population looking for work and the spattering of jobs most counties have seen totals to the unemployment rate. “The combination of all of those things goes into the mathematical formula.”

In Davidson County, the workforce totaled 76,462, down from 77,571 in April.

ered, her appetite disappeared and she became so frail that a bout of pneumonia did her in.

But Emma said she had no regrets. She said she’d done the things she wanted to do.

Emma grew up in Summerville, S.C., and Asheville and went off to Duke University, where she earned a degree in mathematics.

She raised her three children in Thomasville, giving them everything they could want from a mother.

When her son took flying lessons at age 15 and went off to the Air Force Academy, she decided she could chase her lifelong dream of learning to fly.

She logged more than 3,700 hours in the air.

She was a direct descendant of John and Abigail Adams, and she wasn’t afraid of anything.

Emma made her friends and children laugh. She gave money to every charity that asked for it. She once found a woman crying outside a bank after fleeing from an abusive husband. Emma paid for her motel room and groceries and got her to a women’s shelter.

Emma was loved, and we will miss her.

She is survived by her son and daughter-in-law, Lt. Col. Dale R. and Bonita Hanner of Ft. Leavenworth, Kansas.; her daughter and son-in-law, Caroline L. Hanner and Dave Monfore of Clemmons; her daughter and son-in-law, Rebecca and Fred Oliva of Westminster, Colo., her sister, Mary Louise Rhodes of Greensboro, her niece, Julie Rhodes Myrick of Greensboro,, her nephew, Chip Rhodes of Littleton, Colo., and her grandchildren, Andrea Hanner of Thomasville, Traci Hanner of Denver, and Lauren, Ryan and Matthew Oliva of Westminster, Colo.

Emma was cremated, according to her wishes.

Her family will hold a memorial service at 8:30 a.m July 16 at Memorial Methodist Church in Thomasville.

Employment changed by only 41 people, decreasing from April to May, but unemployment also decreased from 10,131 in April to 9,063 in May. Randolph and Guilford County held an unemployment rate of 10.1 percent and 10.4 percent, respectively, while Rowan had 11.8 percent. Curri-

Summer’s arrival a time to refocus spiritually KEEPING THE FAITH

DOUG CREAMER Syndicated Columnist

Summer has finally arrived and so has the much anticipated rest from school. It has been a long year for some reason and I am already beginning to enjoy the different pace that summer allows. It always amazes me that I can go from such an exhausted mental state to one of feeling refreshed and ready to meet the challenges of a new school year in a few short weeks. For the moment, I am ready to escape into a good book.

Summer affords some great opportunities. I always look forward to catching up with family and friends. It’s good to hear what is going on in other people’s lives and to share what is going on in my own. It’s hard to keep up with your friends through email and I am definitely not into all the social networking stuff. I prefer talking over a cold glass of sweet tea or even sharing a meal and some good fellowship.

Summer always means the arrival of fresh fruits and vegetables. We are just now beginning to get a few things in from the garden, but we are anxiously waiting for those first tomatoes. My mouth starts to water even at the thought of a BLT sandwich. Summer gardening always means weeding, not one of my favorite summer activities.

Summer always brings a major project. This

summer the project looks like it will be an office makeover. I am afraid this one will be quite a bit more challenging than our guest room last summer. There is much more stuff to move out of this room before I can even start the makeover process.

But I look forward with great anticipation to the end result of my work.

Summer also brings with it some unpleasantness, like mosquitoes, weeds, poison ivy, hot and humid days, and hurricanes. With the good often comes challenges to keep us on our toes. It all depends upon our focus and our attitude. We can look for and appreciate the good or allow the negative to ruin what could be a good time.

Summer always affords me the opportunity to reflect on my life and to restore balance.

Toward the end of the school year I am pushing

myself and putting off some things that need to be done. The beginning of summer is often catch-up time. Summer allows me to refocus my spiritual life, reset some priorities, and to become reinvigorated so I can return to my classroom in August excited and ready for the new school year.

I don’t understand why people only look at their goals and priorities around New Year’s Eve. It’s easy to become distracted from priorities. The daily pressures of life squeeze our time. Keeping schedules, getting kids to activities, and just the basic routines of life can mess up our goals. It’s a struggle to maintain priorities and to keep what is really important the focus of our lives.

So what is really important? Spiritual growth has to be a priority. If we aren’t growing and maturing spiritually then we are sliding

backwards. Maintaining our spiritual lives should include prayer, quiet meditation, worship, and reading God’s word. I have written about these things over and over because they are that important to every person’s spiritual well being.

Maintaining your relationships with your family and friends has to be a top priority. God never intended for us to live our lives alone or to separate ourselves from the world. By maintaining relationships, especially with non-believers, we can maintain an open door to share the gospel. Parents need to spend time connecting with their kids. There are so many difficult choices kids have to make growing up in the world today and parents have the unique opportunity to help guide their kids through them. Married couples need to invest time into maintaining the love

that brought the two of you together in the fist place. It requires time and personal sacrifice to keep a marriage alive.

I want to encourage you to reconsider what is really important in your life and to work on resetting your priorities.

I know that there are so many priorities that I haven’t even touched on, like taking care of your health, but you know what your priorities are and where you need to work. I believe that God has to be our first priority and our families must be second.

If those two are set correctly, most of life’s other priorities will get in line.

So start your summer off right with God! Doug Creamer teaches Marketing at East Davidson High School. His website is located at www. dougcreamer.com Contact him at PO Box 777, Faith, NC 28041 or email doug@dougcreamer.com.

Safety first in a crucial conversation TaylorMade

MARILYN TAYLOR Business Columnist

You’re there. You are in a conversation that meets the three conditions laid out by Kerry Paterson, Joseph Grenny, Ron McMillan, and Al Switzler in Crucial Conversations: Stakes are high Opinions vary Emotions run strong As you look both ways, you see that the other guy is talking faster and louder. The rising aggression shows you that he is not feeling safe at the moment, although the false bravado suggests just the opposite.

Luckily, you’ve learned a skill that can come in very handy about now.

Called “Make it Safe,” it’s the third tool for talking for when stakes are high.

Maybe you said something that unintentionally pushed the other guy’s buttons. Perhaps you pointed out sub-par performance that the other person was embarrassed by or took exception to. Maybe the topic itself was touchy. But when you tried to speak honestly, what you got in return was dripping sarcasm. The words matter less here than the behavior. Sarcasm is a form of masking, used when people don’t feel safe enough to use real dialogue. To get things back on track you’ve got to step back.

Here’s the Crucial Conversations formula: Step out. (Notice which condition is at risk): Mutual Purpose Mutual Respect Make it safe.

Step back in.

Stepping out can be done verbally as well as physically. Frame it with “OK, let’s just step back for a minute here” or “Can we change gears for a minute?” The idea is to step away from the content of the conversation to restore safety.

Done with respect and concern for the other guy, a “stepping out statement” is often met by the other party with relief.

You both know the path you’re on isn’t taking you where you want to go.

Once you step out, determine where the safety violation took place. Is

it with mutual purpose?

If malicious intent is in question, every word you utter will be suspect.

These questions will help determine whether mutual purpose is a factor: Do others believe I care about their goals in this conversation?

Do they trust my motives?

Establishing sound mutual purpose allows both parties to see it is worthwhile to continue the conversation. If the other person perceives that we are working toward a common outcome in the conversation — that we care about their goals, interests and values — they can more easily invest in ours.

Then, to stay in conversation, we must maintain mutual respect. Speaking in respectful tones, treating others with dignity and using good manners helps to keep things moving forward.

You know that mutual respect is suffering if people get loud, pout, or make threats. Not being respected carries an emotional charge.

Ask: Do others believe I respect them?

How do you “make it safe?” Step out first and determine whether mutual purpose or mutual respect is the main issue.

Restore safety by demonstrating that you do care about the interests and welfare of the other party. And don’t forget about that time-honored way to get back in the game — it’s called the apology.

We’ll add tool No. 4 next time. Let’s move on to mastering crucial conversations with “Master My Stories.”

PPG Lexington employees obtain grants for local charities TIMES STAFF REPORT LEXINGTON — Employees at PPG Industries’ (NYSE:PPG) fiber glass manufacturing plant in Lexington helped to obtain $13,500 in grants through the PPG Industries Foundation for local organizations where they volunteered in 2009 and to date in 2010.

The employee-requested grants were obtained through a foundation program called Grant Incentives for Volunteerism by PPG Employees and Retirees (GIVE), which recognizes employee and retiree volunteer efforts with annual grants of $500 for an ongoing volunteer relationship or $1,000 for serving on an organization’s board of directors.

In 2009 and to date in 2010, 15 PPG Lexington employees obtained 21 grants for eligible local organizations where they volunteer. Recipient organizations include: • Boy Scouts of America Old North State Council • Central Davidson High School

• Communities in Schools of Lexington • Crisis Ministry of Davidson County • Pastor’s Pantry • Path of Hope • Salvation Army, Davidson County • United Way of Davidson County “PPG is strongly committed to supporting the communities where its employees work and live,” said Todd Douthit, plant manager for the Lexington manufacturing facility, and United Way of Davidson County board member. “We are proud that our employees actively assist local nonprofit organizations and participate in the PPG Industries Foundation’s employee programs to help provide financial support where they have an interest.

“It’s a great opportunity for us to give back to the Cleveland community in ways that are personally significant to employees.”

Established in 1951, the PPG In-

dustries Foundation demonstrates the values of PPG Industries by enhancing the quality of life in communities where the company has a presence. Interests of the foundation, in order of priority, are education, human services, culture and arts, and civic and community affairs. PPG also supports charitable causes by encouraging employee volunteerism and executives’ involvement with nonprofit organizations.

Hagan introduces AMERICA Works Act TIMES STAFF REPORT WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Senator Kay R. Hagan (D-NC) Thursday introduced the AMERICA Works Act, which will create a commonsense system to help displaced workers find jobs.

“There are nearly 15 million Americans out of work, including 475,000 North Carolinians,” Hagan said. “My number one priority is jobs, jobs, jobs, and we need to ensure that job training programs in this country actually prepare people to enter the workforce.

The problem now is the disconnect that often exists between job-training programs and the needs of local employers. This legislation will ensure job training programs prepare workers to quickly find jobs, which will strengthen our economy.”

The AMERICA Works Act will encourage national industries – such as

‘In this tough economy, the need for educational institutions, local employers and workforce boards to work together has become increasingly clear in North Carolina and across the country.’

— Sen. Kay Hagan construction, automotive and aerospace – to come together and agree upon the skill sets necessary for employees. When the industries have agreed upon standards, curriculums will be developed for training programs that will offer industry-recognized credentials. When workers have earned an industry-recognized credential, they will be qualified for employment in any state. This credential does not require the cost or time commitment of a two-year degree program; however, the training will count toward a degree.

This no-cost legislation,

which is supported by the National Association of Manufacturers, incentivizes existing federal job training programs to implement the new, industry-recognized credential system. These existing programs are included under the Workforce Investment Act, the Perkins Vocation-Technical Education Act, and Trade Adjustment Assistance.

“I will be working with my colleagues this year to advance this jobs bill in Congress,” Hagan said. “In this tough economy, the need for educational institutions, local employers and workforce

boards to work together has become increasingly clear in North Carolina and across the country.”

North Carolina’s Forsyth Technical Community College is one of four colleges in the country that was selected by the Manufacturing Institute, a manufacturing organization, to implement a job-training program that issues nationally recognized credentials.

This is the model for the AMERICA Works Act. North Carolina has spent years refining a career-ready certificate program, and had issued 53,000 certificates. Of the state’s 58 community colleges, 57 offer these certificates. The AMERICA Works bill will nationalize this type of NC program so workers can be job-ready anywhere in the United States.

The bill will be referred to the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee, on which Hagan sits.

FOCUS UNCLE BILL’S CORNER

BILL HILL Guest Columnist

A little boy and his best friend

A farmer had some puppies he needed to sell. He painted a sign advertising the four pups and set about nailing it to post on the edge of his yard. As he was driving the last nail into the post, he felt a tug on his overalls. He looked down into the eyes of a little boy.

“Mister,” he said.

“I want to buy one of your puppies.”

“Well,” said the farmer, as he rubbed the sweat off the back of his neck. “These puppies come from fine parents and cost a good deal of money.”

The boy dropped his head for a moment. Then reaching deep into his pocket, he pulled out a handful of change and held it up to the farmer.

“I’ve got 39 cents. Is that enough to take a look?”

“Sure,” said the farmer. And with that he let out with a whistle.

“Here, Dolly!” he called.

Out from the doghouse and down the ramp ran Dolly followed by four balls of fur. The little boy pressed his face against the chain link fence. His eyes danced with delight.

As the dogs made their way to the fence, the little boy noticed something else stirring inside the doghouse.

Slowly another little ball of fur appeared, this one noticeably smaller.

Down the ramp it slid.

Then, in a somewhat awkward manner, the little pup began hobbling toward the others, doing it’s best to catch up.

“I want that one,” the little boy said, pointing to the runt.

The farmer knelt down at the little boys side and said, “Son you don’t want that puppy. He will never be able to run and play with you like these other dogs would.”

With that the little boy stepped back from the fence and reached down, and began rolling up one leg of his trousers.

In doing so revealed a steel brace running down both sides of his leg attaching itself to a specially made shoe.

Looking back up at the farmer, he said, “You see sir, I don’t run too well myself, and he will need someone who understands.”

With tears in his eyes, the farmer reached down and picked up the little pup. Holding it carefully he handed it to the little boy.

“How much?” asked the little boy.

“No charge,” answered the farmer, “There’s no charge for love.”

The world if full of people who need someone who understands.

May God bless each of you with friends.

Until next time, take care, my friend.

Post 87 has trouble on offense

BY ZACH KEPLEY Sports Editor Somewhere between late Wednesday evening and Thursday, the Post 87 Junior HiToms lost their offense and never found it.

Twenty-four hours after clobbering Surry County 26-4, the Post 87 offense disappeared, as they fell in disappointing fashion to Randolph County, 11-3 in a Area III Northern Division game

‘We just could not get anything going offensively.’

Transfers shocked Williams

BY BRIANA GORMAN Durham Herald Sun CHAPEL HILL — Before this May, North Carolina’s Roy Williams had had just three players transfer from his programs at Kansas and UNC in 21 seasons as a head coach.

It was a track record Williams said he was proud of, so it’s no won-

der he admitted during his summer press conference Thursday he’s still trying to come to grips with the transfers of freshmen big men David and Travis Wear.

“I have not spoken to them and I haven’t dealt with it very well,” Williams said. “It was a hard thing. It was a surprise.

But you have to move on.

They have to move on and

we do too.”

The brothers stunned Williams on May 5 when their father called asking for a release from their scholarships. David and Travis had both averaged roughly 10 minutes a game in 2009-10 and were expected to see a larger role this season with the loss of forwards Ed Da-

Let freedom roar It seems a dichotomy of sorts that one of the professional sporting events most closely associated with the Fourth of July — Independence Day — is the Coke Zero 400 Powered

by Coca Cola NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race at Daytona International Speedway. On the day set aside to celebrate independence, the sport of NASCAR seems to celebrate anything but.

Or does it?

It has been a hot summer so far, and I’m not talking about the thermometer. Between the Stanley Cup and the World Cup, temperatures and passions have run high.

Being a Southerner, I’m still not completely sure where all these hockey and soccer fans suddenly came from, but being an American, my only comment on the subject is “go, team!”

One sport I do follow pretty closely is tennis. What a thrill it was to watch what will surely go down in history as the greatest match ever played, when American John Isner beat France’s Nicholas Mahut in a contest at Wimbledon lasting 11 hours, 5 minutes with a final score of 6-4, 3-6, 6-7 (9-7), 7-6 (7-3), 70-68,

CATHY ELLIOTT NASCAR Columnist played on June 22. And June 23. And June 24.

Tennis. Now, that’s a solitary sport consisting of one player and one racquet on either side of one net, with one ball between the two of them. That’s it.

If a guy misses a shot or seems a half step slower than his opponent, there is no team poised to spring into action and correct the problem. The coach can’t even sit on the sidelines.

The player’s only solution is to play better, to run faster. Literally, it is an “every man for himself ” kind of game.

I have never watched a soccer match in my life, and most folks had probably never heard of John Isner before June 22. And

The best things in life are worth crying for OFF THE PORCH

DICK JONES Outdoor Columnist The very best things in life are intangible.

Things we own bring us short term happiness but really don’t mean anything in our lives.

Money is only something we can spend on things.

It’s true that we can give money away but giving the money doesn’t bring us joy, the willingness to give it away is the source of the pleasure. It’s relationships that make our brief stint here on Earth worth the trouble.

My oldest grandson, Phoenix, has been one of my best friends from the beginning. Our relationship has sometimes been a source of frustration especially during the “terrible twos”. I resolved not to spoil my grandchildren and I haven’t. We do things together, but I don’t let them get away with bad behavior. Phoenix was the first, and I learned a lot from him.

When Phoenix was three, he was riding in a kid seat on the back of

my bicycle on the New River Trail. The New River Trail is a 54-mile long bike and walking trail that begins in Galax, Va. and ends in Fries, Va. Phoenix and I had covered about 10 miles out and were a couple of miles into the return trip to the truck.

He was tired and began to complain. As is often the case with three-yearolds, he began to cry.

I patiently tried to explain that crying wouldn’t do any good.

All we could do was peddle back to the truck and his complaining and crying wouldn’t help us get there faster. All who’ve spent time with a three year old know how that didn’t work. I then explained that, since he felt crying would help, I would join him and I began to cry. It wasn’t real crying, it was the fake crying kids learn to use when they want something. I had more experience, though, and I cried louder than him with a pitiful snubbing inhale.

Within a minute, he asked me to stop crying.

I slowly cut the crying off and went back to the business of peddling us back the remaining seven or eight miles.

Occasionally, he would begin to whimper and I would start crying. He would stop whimpering and ask me to not cry.

I learned a lesson that day. When my grandkids cry over something they want, I cry with them.

To have a relationship with your kids and grandkids, you have to spend one on one time with them. Phoenix and I have fished, shot, kayaked, hunted, camped, traveled, snorkeled, mined gems, and biked together. In the process, I learned things about him and he learned about me. On a “School is Out Celebration” trip a few years ago, he began the trip by using his knowledge of me to push my buttons. I’m not going to tell you what this entails, because you might decide to use the information against me later, but he began the trip by pushing my buttons. It was clear he intended to use his new found power for the duration of the trip.

You can’t punish a child for pushing your buttons provided they know how hard to push and Phoenix was doing a pretty good job of knowing the limit. I devised a plan and worked it. I explained that I knew he was pushing my buttons; he innocently proclaimed he had no idea what I was talking about.

I explained that, since I was the driver, I would get to chose where we would eat but if he could manage to not push my buttons between meals, he could choose.

He chose the restaurant for every meal of the whole three-day trip. You couldn’t ask for a better kid. Since

that time, this is our standard traveling procedure. If I especially want to eat at a specific restaurant, I ask and my gracious grandson almost always yields.

When Phoenix was eight, I got him a shotgun and he started shooting; he showed real promise. At some point, he shot a gun that was too big and the recoil hurt him. He stopped shooting the shotgun.

I backed off and didn’t push. It took three years to get him back on the gun. It was hard not to push too hard, but I knew he had to want to shoot to enjoy it and if he didn’t enjoy it, he’d never be a good shooter. Eventually, he asked to shoot again and he’s doing fine now.

What I’m saying here isn’t that I’m a great grandparent or that I can tell you how to deal with your kids and grandkids.

What I’m saying is they benefit from you being consistent, patient, and fair with them and they will most likely make the right decision if you set a good example. If I’d rushed Phoenix when he quit shooting shotgun, I might have turned him off it for good. It had to be something he wanted.

This week, a tree fell across the driveway and Phoenix helped me clear up the mess.

He volunteered to help and he worked hard in

From page B2 unmerciful heat. He worked steady, not loafing around, but responsibly. It was a wonderful thing to see. This last year has been a turning point for my soon to be 14-year-old grandson. He likes to spend time at my house, he volunteers to do things to help around the place, and he tries to be a good influence on the younger grandkids. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s becoming a man. Watching it happen is as good a feeling as Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve ever had in my life.

I know weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re heading for tough times; being a teenager is hard on parents, grandparents, and teenagers but I know Phoenix will handle it well.

Having taken as many as 16 teenage boys to The National Matches as their boss and guardian, I know I can handle it. Phoenix and I will have trials and tough times for sure but weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll work through it. There will be challenges Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sure but weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll work through them.

Jeffreys nibbles away at points lead held by Myers BG REPORT It looked, at first, like Lee Jeffreys was set to possibly take the points lead at Bowman Gray Stadium.

Starting position for Saturdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Renegade 100 for the Bill Plemmons RV World Modified Series was determined by random draw. And as luck would have it, championship hopeful Lee Jeffreys of Wallburg drew the pole with points leader Burt Myers of Walnut Cove drawing 24th as his starting spot. With two points being awarded per position, Jeffreys needed to finish only six positions ahead of Myers to take over the points lead.

Thankfully for Myers, the Double-File â&#x20AC;&#x153;Choiceâ&#x20AC;?

Restart Rule was in effect as well, giving Myers one more tool to utilize in an attempt to work his way to the front. Seven cautions meant seven double-file restarts, and Myers made wise decisions each time on whether to take the inside or outside lane.

Myers steered clear of the incidents that took out some other competitors, and the No. 1 car of Myers steadily made its

way through the field.

By the mid-point in the race, Myers had already climbed up to eighth place.

Meanwhile, Jeffreys battled with Burt Myersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; brother, Jason Myers, for the lead. Jeffreys was able to beat Jason Myers on the first few attempts, but a minor slip on a double-file restart was all that it took for Jeffreys to drop back to second.

Jeffreys chose to play it conservative and consistently choose the inside row, feeling that his car performed better in the inner groove. Jeffreys fell back to fifth. Burt Myers moved up to sixth and was seeking to pass by Jeffreys, but the No. 77 car of Jeffreys was able to hold strong.

When the checkered flag waved, Jason Myers came away with the win.

Brother Burt finished sixth, and Lee Jeffreys finished right in front of him in fifth. Burt maintains his points lead, although Jeffreys whittles another two points away from the gap that separates him from Myers.

er good night for Billy Gregg of Winston-Salem. He finished second in the 20-lapper for the 104.1 WTQR Street Stock Series, keeping him second in the points. Gregg continues to attack the points lead held by Matt Cotner of Rural Hall.

Cotner finished seventh, reducing his points from 48 to 38.

Reggie Doub of Germanton jumps up to third in the points after a third place finish on Saturday.

John McNeal of Winston-Salem drops down to fourth in the points standings.

In the Time Warner Cable Stadium Stock Series, Jimmy Absher of Rural Hall barely slips into the points lead, as Wayne Hill of Kernersville drops down to second. Dale Barneycastle

moves up to third in the points. Brian Loftin of Lexington holds onto the fourth place ranking. Jason Myersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; win boosts him up to the fifth spot on the points ladder.

In the Webb Heating & A/C Co. Sportsman Series, Ryan Robertson of Winston-Salem claims second in the first race and sixth in the second race, moving him back into the points lead. Robbie Brewer of WinstonSalem drops down to second in the points after a collision in the second race moved him from the front of the field to a 22nd place finish.

Kyle Edwards of King maintains his third place standing, and Taylor Branch, who won on Saturday, moves up to fourth in the points.

Davis taken 13th by Raptors

BY BRIANA GORMAN Durham Herald Sun Ed Davis became North Carolina’s 40th firstround draft pick when the Toronto Raptors took him 13th overall, while the 2010 national champions, Duke, had no players selected during Thursday’s NBA Draft.

Davis, a 6-10, 225-pound forward, averaged 9.2 points and 7.7 rebounds in two seasons in Chapel Hill. He was the Tar Heels’ leading rebounder (9.6 per game) and second leading scorer (13.4 per game) last year, despite missing the final 13 games with a broken bone in his left wrist.

Davis, who was the 97th Tar Heel to be drafted, is known primarily for his defense and shot blocking skills as he finished his collegiate career with 129 blocked shots.

Davis was in Madison Square Garden in New York for the NBA Draft and was all smiles when NBA commissioner David Stern called his name.

“My favorite player, Chris Bosh, went [to Toronto] so they’re a young

TROUBLE From page B1 rose to occasion, as the crafty left-hander struck out the next three he would face to escape further damage.

Baughman would give up one more home run to Fultz in the eighth, but other than the two mistakes, he was dazzling striking out nine and giving up five hits.

“He is their ace and

ROAR From page B1 June 23. And June 24.

Still, it’s safe to say that most of us felt some sense of outrage at the poor officiating we have seen in the World Cup, then that swell of patriotism when the U.S. team came back and won anyway, and when a tennis match that broke every imaginable record was won by a guy from Greensboro, N.C. And just to add a little more icing to an already tasty cake, Lord Stanley’s Cup is currently living in Chicago rather than somewhere in Canada.

Still, when you think of all-American sports, it’s hard to find a better example than NASCAR. Former President of the United States Lyndon Johnson once described the state of the union as “free and restless, growing and full of hope.”

When you think about it, it isn’t too much of a stretch to apply these same phrases to race teams. There is a certain degree of restlessness inherent in any NASCAR garage, where the search for that extra thousandth of a second, that additional quarter inch of distance, never ceases.

The sport is constantly growing, geographically and technologically, as well as in popularity.

That perpetual restlessness and growth,

team, they play fast ... so I think it’s a good fit,” he told ESPN Davis after being drafted.

Davis’ father, Terry, who spent 10 seasons in the NBA, also was in New York and told ESPN he needed to update his passport so he could go see his son play.

“Like I told him, just enjoy your moment, work hard and God will take care of the rest,” Terry said.

Two other ACC players were drafted before Davis, as Georgia Tech’s Derrick Favors was selected No. 3 overall by the New Jersey Nets, and Wake Forest’s Al-Farouq Aminu was taken by the Los Angeles Clippers with the eighth pick.

The Portland Trail Blazers took former Duke player Elliot Williams, who transferred to Memphis after the 2008-09 season to be closer to his ill mother, with the No. 22 pick.

Clemson’s Trevor Booker was the first senior drafted — it was the latest a senior has ever gone — when the Minnesota Timberwolves took him 23rd overall. The Wolves

then traded the rights to Booker to the Wizards for Washington’s 30th and 35th picks.

ACC player of the year Greivis Vasquez saw his decision to return to Maryland for the 2009-10 season after testing the NBA waters a year ago pay off as he was the fifth and final ACC player taken in the first round when the Memphis Grizzlies took him with the 28th pick.

“This is a great opportunity for me, and Memphis will be great for me,” Vasquez told ESPN after giving Stern a big hug after his name was announced. “I just can’t wait to get to training camp and work hard.”

Just three ACC players were taken in the second round. Georgia Tech’s Gani Lawal was taken 46th overall by the Phoenix Suns, and the Dallas Mavericks took Florida State’s Solomon Alabi with the 50th pick. Alabi was later traded to the Raptors, where he will join Davis. The Indiana Pacers took the Seminoles’ Ryan Reid with the 57th selection.

I knew we were gonna have to make big adjustments from last night to tonight,” said Shore. “He threw a lot of off-speed stuff and hit his spots.”

Post 45 had scored four more in the eighth to blow the game wide open. In the ninth, Post 87 grabbed a run on the Randolph bullpen, but had no significant push in them to climb back.

The Junior HiToms have a huge game at Burlington-Graham today, a team that is in a virtual

tie with Post 87 at 9-4 in the league. A win in that game could still give High Point the league title with 3-10 WinstonSalem the only other team remaining on the schedule.

“It (league) is still in our hands — we just need to go win on Saturday,” Shore said. “We have never won a regular season title before, and that is very important to me as a coach and I hope that is important to them.”

combined with the freedom to experiment (within certain limits, of course!) and the final ingredient — hope — paints a pretty representative picture of a NASCAR team.

Like the place of its birth, NASCAR is an upstart, a rough-and-tumble contest made up of equal parts determination, talent and pure grit.

Mechanics, sponsors, crew members, equipment and a lone driver are melded together into a large group that somehow functions efficiently, and sometimes even brilliantly, as a single unit.

Oh, they’ll fight and bicker and publicly snipe at one another, but let Jeff Gordon need help — real help — and all those guys he basically ran over at Infineon Raceway on June 20 will queue up right along with everybody else to offer their assistance.

NASCAR’s individual states may have their little border skirmishes from time to time, but don’t even think for a second they aren’t united, because they are.

Where this is unity, there is always victory, and in the sports arena, stock car racing continues to be a proven winner, in every category you can think of.

In NASCAR’s case, freedom not only rings — it roars.

CRIME BRIEFS Larceny suspect arrested in Myrtle Beach

A Thomasville man was arrested for felony larceny of a motor vehicle after Myrtle Beach Police stopped him for possession of a stolen car.

According to Davidson County Sheriff ’s Office, on June 1, 2010, a victim reported that her vehicle had been stolen during the night from in front of her residence. During the course of the investigation, DCSO B&E Task Force officers determined that their suspect, Charles Alan Richard, 19, of 2367 Noahtown Road in Thomasville, had been stopped by the Myrtle Beach Police Department and arrested for possession of the stolen motor vehicle from Colleen Drive in Davidson County.

A warrant was obtained on Richard for felony larceny of a motor vehicle.

On Thursday, deputies with the B&E Task Force traveled to Conway, S.C. and arrested Mr. Richard at the Horry County Jail.

Richard gave a full confession to the larceny.

He was placed in the Davidson County Jail under a $3,000 secure bond.

His court date is set for July 12.10.

Traffic stop nets stolen merchandise

A routine traffic stop led police to arrest a Durham man for possesion of stolen property.

Cristian Briceno Gustavo, 22, of Durham, was charged with no operator’s license, giving fictitious information to an Officer, and possession of stolen property when police found a bag with sensor-tagged merchandise from numerous retail stores.

On Wednesday, at approximately 10:30 p.m. the Davidson County Sheriff ’s Office Interstate Criminal Enforcement Unit stopped a 2003 Nissan Altima on I-85 Southbound at mile marker 91 in Lexington for a traffic violation (improper equipment/burned out tag light). The vehicle displayed North Carolina registration and was occupied by the Gustavo.

During the course of the traffic stop, officer’s conducted a probable cause search of the vehicle, which revealed a lead-lined bag along with two large duffle bags containing in excess of $5,000 worth of clothing that still had the store sensor tags attached.

The clothing appeared to have been taken from the stores of Express, New York & Company, Aeropostale, Chico’s and the Children’s Place.

Gustavo could not provide a valid identification and gave officer’s three different names during the investigation. He was arrested and placed in the Davidson County Jail under a $125,000 secured bond. He is scheduled to appear in Lexington District Court on July 27.

Man charged with stealing vehicle, eluding police
