Small businesses seeking incentive grants BY ERIN WILTGEN Staff Writer
In part because of new economic development guidelines catered to smaller companies, the Davidson County Economic Development Commission has noticed an increase in the number of small business endeavors approaching for incentive grants.
EDC Executive Director Steve Googe spoke on behalf of one of those companies, dubbed Project M, at the Davidson County Board of Commissioners meetings on July 1. “I think we have for a long time put our eggs in a few baskets,” Googe said. “And the idea that our leadership has pursued is the approach that we would much prefer to

gested the commissioners approve an incentive grant of .0027 times the company’s investment in real property each year for five years as well as a second grant of .0054 times the company’s investment in plant and machinery. The total of the two grants would not exceed $6,000 a year. Commissioners set a
public hearing for Aug. 10 to discuss the incentive grant. The drive to encourage small businesses to invest in Davidson County began about six months ago, spearheaded by Commissioner Sam Watford, Googe said. The county’s municipalities endorsed some new guidelines that

Thomasville City Council will discuss at its meeting Monday the possible acquisition of a used fire truck to replace an existing one that has broken down. The Chair City’s fire department currently has a 1982 Mack fire truck with a broken water pump. Preliminary reports estimate the repair at $2025,000. “We feel that’s more than the truck is worth,” Fire Chief Martin Dailey told the council at the briefing Monday night. “We desperately need your help. We have a very sick fire truck.” Dailey requested the council consider the purchase of a 2000 KME custom pumper from Bluffton, S.C. The KME — which, like Thomasville’s trucks, holds 750 gallons of water and can pump 1,500 gallons per minute — moved out of Bluffton’s service in October 2009. “My understanding is they’re expanding their fleet, and they’re expanding their service area,”

When I first met Cheryl McCarthy last month, she was still cleaning up from the tornadoes that struck parts of Davidson County in March. Our first encounter proved interesting to say the least, as she thought I worked with the Census, meaning a conversation about the storms was as likely as her running me off with a broom. Once we broke the ice, she told me her story of surviving the tornadoes in Valley Mobile Home Park just outside Thomasville and the clean-up that followed. My reason for being there that day centered around the storm’s aftermath and how those who were affected began rebuilding. It was a hot day and I found Cheryl working outside her home hanging up what appeared to be tarps, tied together with thick strings to form a hand-made awning, stretching the length of her trailer. I couldn’t help but ask and Cheryl said her creation was intended to keep people out of the rain when they came by to eat. With such humbling surroundings, I figured Cheryl meant her family came by on Sundays for lunch after church
or something of that nature, not thinking it was much more than that. Leading up to the tornadoes, Cheryl said every six weeks or so, she cooked food for anybody that wanted or needed a meal free of charge. She worked with local businesses on deals for buying large bulks of chicken or potato salad to feed as many people as possible, expecting nothing in return. The more Cheryl explained why she did it, the more I kept asking myself “why is she trying to do this now?” Surely something like this could wait for another time when normalcy returns and life is a bit more stable. By the time I left, Cheryl and I had developed a tiny friendship, and we departed with an invitation to come back the next time she offered her free meals. I never expected to hear from her again, after all, she nearly chased me away at the very thought I worked for the Census. Last week, Cheryl called the office and extended the invitation, saying she was doing her free meals on Saturday, less than four months after a tornado picked her trailer up off the ground. Despite an already busy weekend

Lexington officer involved in shooting BY ELIOT DUKE Staff Writer
A Lexington police officer was involved in a shooting early Monday morning following an armed robbery, but authorities are not saying whether the two incidences are related. According to the North Carolina Department of Justice, officer J.W. Wolfe II shot Gerardo Granados Ayala, 21, of 148 Northeast Drive in Lexington, following a scuffle
Monday morning at approximately 1:50 a.m. Wolfe approached Ayala on foot at the intersection of Spring Drive and Virginia Drive, about a tenth of a mile from where an armed robbery was reported less than 30 minutes earlier. A press release from the Lexington Police Department states that a scuffle over the weapon ensued, resulting in Wolfe shooting Ayala. The suspect was transported to Baptist Hospital in Winston-Salem for non-life threatening injuries

and Wolfe was not injured during the altercation. LPD contacted the State Bureau of Investigation to assist with the investigation. “I can confirm that SBI agents are investigating this shooting at the request of the Lexington police,” Noelle Talley, public information officer with the N.C.

Simulator to help improve road safety for driving professionals TIMES STAFF REPORT
A new, high-tech driving simulator at Davidson County Community College will soon result in enhanced road safety for students and professionals in the fields of law enforcement, firefighting, rescue and first response, and truck driving. The computerized simulator allows drivers to practice and learn emergency driving skills when encountering hazardous road conditions. They become proficient at safety maneuvers and practices they can’t learn behind the wheels of actual vehicles. The instructional tool, valued at $320,000, was purchased through a grant from the Golden LEAF Foundation as well as state funds. It is among only a few on the campuses of North Carolina’s 58 community colleges. It simulates hundreds of critical experiences in which drivers practice averting or avoiding unexpected road threats caused by ice, snow, tire blow-outs, brake failures, collisions and other road conditions. Each scenario is programmed or controlled by the instructor, and no matter how many mistakes the driver makes, no one gets hurt and no vehicles are damaged. “The benefits of this technology can be lifesaving,” said Randy Ledford, associate dean of the DCCC School of Business, Engineering and Technical Studies. “If simulator drivers make a mistake, it can be studied, corrected and mastered; the real world environment is not as flexible and forgiving,” he added. Businesses, industry and public service organizations within the Piedmont Triad region have expressed interest in using the simulator for training purposes, according to Ledford. Simulator
drivers feel as if they are behind the wheel of an actual vehicle. They grip the steering wheel, turn the ignition switch, and press the gas and brake pedals to get moving. They view their journey through three, high-resolution computer screens, and they must be ready for anything that pops up from a weather emergency to a deer darting out in the roadway. What happens on their drive is controlled by the click of a computer mouse operated by their instructor behind them. Instructors can change the scenario from day to night, make it snow or rain, or lay down sheets of dangerous black ice. Drivers see lifelike images of oncoming traffic among other realistic animations. Their views are ever-changing, from city streets with pedestrians strolling by or long dark stretches of highway with only occasional traffic. It is what the drivers may not notice or see coming that provides the teachable moments, such as an unexpected patch of ice or someone in dark clothing walking alongside or crossing the road. The simulated training experience prepares drivers for scenarios they may never or rarely encounter in the real world, and it allows them to practice avoidance techniques. The simulations are videotaped so that students and instructors can play them back to study what went right and what went wrong. “Road driving can’t prepare students for the scenarios that they may encounter on the job,” said Ledford. “The simulator helps them develop and apply risk awareness and management skills as well as crash avoidance maneuvers.” Tractor trailer drivers can learn to maneuver in and out of narrow city
streets where it can be difficult to back their trailers precisely into loading docks or to make tight turns without bumping their wheels over the curbs. “It taught me to think and look ahead and make plans for anything unexpected that can happen; I learned to be ready to shift, brake, or somehow avoid the obstacle,” said Jim Camp, a truck driving instructor who was trained to instruct his students using the simulator. “This is a great opportunity to develop skills and do things you can’t normally do on the street. .” High risk situations such as police chases can be practiced, and fire and rescue drivers can learn policies such as whether to stop or slow down at certain intersections. Actual road accidents can be recreated to teach students how to safely avoid similar situations. The simulator is mounted in a 30-foot trailer that can be pulled to all DCCC campuses and education centers as well as schools and public events. For more information, call Randy Ledford at 336.249.8186, extension 6357, or email him at rledford@davidsonccc.edu
Syndicated Columnist Dear Mary: We have a large family, and we plan to take a road trip this summer because it’s significantly cheaper than flying. We often are tempted to spend a lot on eating out when we take road trips, as we cannot bring the kitchen with us. What suggestions do you have for families going on short or extended road trips to keep the food budget down? — Robert S., California Dear Robert: You can’t bring the kitchen, but a nice big cooler will be a must. First, set a budget for how much you will spend on food per day. Then stick to it. Visit groceries along the way to fill the cooler with snacks, beverages and lunch for the day. It won’t be as cheap as eating at home, but it will be cheaper than eating all of your meals out. Then book your overnight stays in hotels, such as Homewood Suites, where hot break-
fast is included in the price of the room every day of the week and a hot dinner is served Monday through Thursday. Other hotels, such as Country Inns & Suites, include kitchenettes, enabling you to prepare meals in your room. This strategy will require planning and a little work. But if everyone pitches in to prepare and eat breakfast and lunch on the cheap, you’ll be able to eat out for one meal a day while sticking to your budget. Dear Mary: My husband made really good money. Then BAM! He got sick last fall. Since then, he’s brought in only $500. We are almost four months late with our mortgage. We have been in contact with our lender, and I need to write a hardship letter to explain our situation. Do you have any suggestions on how to write a successful letter? — Cathy K., Montana Dear Cathy: Stick carefully to the facts. Keep your letter to one page. Be to the point and nonemotional. Make sure you have job titles correct and names spelled correctly. Once you’ve written the letter once, rewrite it, removing all unnecessary words. Make sure your grammar and spelling are impeccable. Once you have it perfect, print it, sign it and send it off. Good luck.

A while back, I thought about the sorry state of our finances and tried to analyze what we did wrong. I came up with a question: What’s the difference between ambition and greed? I wanted the best schools for my kids, the bigger house, the better neighborhood, etc. It’s a no-win game because you never are satisfied. I found that I wasn’t ambitious; I was greedy. That ranks as one of the deadly sins!

HEATH
Male menopause not just the stuff of myth VIEWPOINT
XXXX Syndicated Columnist
Around age 50, women go through menopause. From hot flashes and depression to mood swings, headaches and loss of libido, the symptoms of menopause are well known and can prove quite frustrating to those who experience them. As millions of women cope with the challenges of menopause, it is easy to see the unfair burden placed on them. What about men? Is there a male menopause? In a recent study published in the New England Journal of Medicine, researchers showed that male menopause -- while rare -- is not just a myth.
For women, menopause and its symptoms result from a dramatic drop in production of the female hormones, estrogen and progesterone. Men can experience a similar condition called “lateonset hypogonadism,� in which testosterone levels drop precipitously. This rare condition is, in fact, male menopause. Researchers from the University of Manchester in England followed 3,369 healthy men -- ranging in age from 40 to 79 -- to detect and define the symptoms of male menopause. All participants had no evidence of any illness that could affect testosterone levels. Encouragingly, only 2 percent of the men developed male menopause, in which low testosterone levels presented with erectile dysfunction, decreased libido and a decrease in the prevalence of early morning erections. These men also had a number of nonsexual symptoms that included a reduced ability to
exercise rigorously or to walk 1 kilometer as well as difficulty stooping or bending. Psychologically, they complained of low energy, fatigue and feeling glum or depressed. These symptoms are very nonspecific and can be caused by other medical conditions, making an accurate diagnosis of the male menopause difficult. Within the entire group of men, the prevalence of low testosterone levels did increase with age. Between 40 and 49 years, only 0.1 percent had low testosterone, which increased to 0.6 percent in the 50-59 age group. And 3.2 percent of men between ages 60 and 69 had low testosterone levels, as did 5.1 percent of those between the ages of 70 and 79 years. Although low testosterone levels are rare in very healthy men, measurements from the entire population indicate that deficiencies are more prevalent than expected. The prestigious Institute of Medicine reported in
2003 that hypogonadism was under-diagnosed. They projected that as many as 2.9 million men ages 49-60 had low testosterone levels and that 13 million American men had hypogonadism. There are many reasons why testosterone levels decrease, including viral infections, such as mumps, chronic vascular disease, diabetes, obesity, an array of chronic illnesses and even some medications. Low testosterone is associated with a number of serious medical problems, including loss of muscle with weakness and frailty, bone loss leading to osteoporosis and, on occasion, significant declines in memory. It is reasonable to recommend measuring testosterone levels in men with sexual dysfunction, in those with severe fatigue and frailty, or when osteoporosis has been diagnosed. Much research has shown that when testosterone levels are clearly deficient, replacement can lead to increased
energy, improvements in memory, and improved gait, balance and strength when combined with exercise and physical therapy. The benefits of correcting the hormone deficiency to improve sexual function are less clear. While libido may be minimally improved, the ability to have erections is frequently unaffected, particularly in older men with other medical problems such as vascular disease and diabetes. Treatment for testosterone replacement can be relatively easy. Patients can use a patch or a cream containing testosterone to reduce hormone deficiency. Alternately, men can opt for an intramuscular injection given every two weeks, which is a much more cost-effective option. Most patients can be taught to inject themselves without any significant problems. Before replacing testosterone, it is important to screen for prostate cancer. The hormone may stimulate tumor growth,
and most, but not all, experts recommend that it not be given to men with the disease or those with increased PSA levels. When frank deficiency does exist, testosterone replacement can be highly effective in improving quality of life.

Children’s vision should be checked regularly to prevent any problems with learning and comprehension.
Vision problems can affect learning
MS — Vision problems are more than just a nuisance for children. Impacted vision can have serious effects on a child’s ability to learn in the classroom. Imagine trying to read a textbook or see the chalkboard with words dancing around or vision doubled. What if the words were blurred or even backward? These are the problems thousands of students face. Poor grades or an inability to pay attention in class may be incorrectly attributed to other learning or behavioral issues when really they could stem from poor vision. Most vision screenings at school do not check for tracking, focusing, eye teaming, or perceptual skills. They simply check for visual acuity. Therefore, students with certain vision impairments may be sent on their way with a 20/20 bill of health. An optometrist or opthalmologist will be able to diagnose vision problems that are not apparent in school exams. Without proper diagnosis, children can experience low self-esteem and feelings of inadequacy in school. With repeated admonishments from educators and parents, children may view themselves as “stupid� or unable to learn. This could impact them throughout
their entire lives. Corrective treatments can improve a child’s ability to see and learn. A study published in the Archives of Ophthalmology indicated that test scores of preschool-aged children who had hyperopia and astigmatism were lower than those who did not. Within 6 weeks of wearing corrective glasses, the children’s test scores improved significantly. The American Optometric Association rec-

Children are not alone in vision problems. Adults can also be impacted by any number of vision ailments. Doctors recommend annual eye exams for adults as well.

CHAPEL HILL -- A team of researchers from the UNC Institute for Global Health & Infectious Diseases has received a $1.7 million grant from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to study novel HIV testing methods to detect acute HIV infection and target sexual networks to curb the spread of HIV in North Carolina. The four-year study will assess the performance and cost-effectiveness of a new, 4th generation test to diagnose acute HIV infection (AHI). AHI is the period between infection and detection of HIV antibodies and lasts up to 12 weeks. During this brief window of time, the virus replicates rapidly, and the probability of transmission is very high. “We believe that a significant proportion of HIV transmission by the sexual route is driven by AHI,� said Peter Leone, MD, MPH, professor of medicine in the UNC
School of Medicine and adjunct professor of epidemiology in the Gillings School of Global Public Health and co-principal investigator of the study. “Identifying individuals with AHI could have a significant positive impact on the spread of the virus.� Study investigators say the findings will likely have critical implications for the use of 4th generation HIV testing methods. “If these methods are shown to be accurate and cost-effective, their use would allow more widespread screening for acute infection and help with prevention,� said co-principle investigator Cynthia Gay, MD, MPH, an assistant professor of medicine at UNC. The Screening Targeted Populations to Interrupt Ongoing Chains of Transmission with Enhanced Partner Notification, or STOP, study will use the AHI diagnosis to identify sexual networks

Human sacrifice sometimes a distasteful necessity VIEWPOINT
D.G. MARTIN N.C. Columnist Are the days of human sacrifice long gone? Remember that story of Abraham’s near sacrifice of his son Isaac and how God put an end to that sort of thing? But the tradition continued in a way, according to the Bible, as kings of Israel and Judah regularly executed their rivals and their rivals’ children. Just before the fall of Judah and the beginning of the exile, King Josiah, having found copies of God’s laws that had been lost and ignored by the idol-worshiping prior kings, set out to clean house. He wanted to demonstrate to God and the people that the reforms were real. So according to II Kings 23:5 he “… put down the idolatrous priests, whom the kings of Judah had ordained to burn incense in the high places in the cities of Judah, and in the places round about Jerusalem; them also that burned incense unto Baal, to the sun, and to the moon, and to the planets, and to all the host of heaven.” “Put down” probably means executed — sacrificed to dramatically show Josiah’s attempt to restore his country’s standing in the eyes of God. Thank goodness we don’t do it that way anymore. But the necessity of sacrificing professional lives on the altar of the greater good continues in the realm of politics and government. It is an ugly, painful, unfair necessity. But the public leader who fails to change the leadership of a tainted department has usually made a mistake. Here is what happens. In a department or agency reporting to the president, governor, or mayor, a scandal or some other smelly situation develops and gains public attention and concern. Maybe the leader of the agency, by his or her own swift and decisive action, solves the problem and dismisses the responsible people. Otherwise, the taint
is on that agency leader. In such cases, the president, or governor, or mayor has to sacrifice the agency leader. Otherwise, the taint attaches to the one at the top. When this taint attaches, the top leader is compromised. Replacing an agency head is always a disruptive and usually a painful exercise for a governmental leader. The situation is more troublesome when the agency head has otherwise done a good job. It is even more trying when the agency head is a trusted friend or supporter of the president, governor or mayor. Sacrificing a good friend to preserve the position and strength of the top leader may be the most difficult of all the difficult tasks that the top leader has to face. Our governor, Beverly Perdue, faces this kind of situation today. The state’s Highway Patrol, beloved and respected by most North Carolinians, is caught in a vortex of trouble, probably caused by only a few officers who have put the enjoyment of personal pleasures ahead of their professional duties. The current commander of the patrol probably has no direct responsibility for any of the specific personnel problems that have embarrassed his organization. But symbolically, at least, he is responsible for the culture in which the trouble festered. Even though there may be legal challenges that make it difficult to install new leadership, Gov. Perdue must find a way. Unless she takes a decisive step to bring new leadership that is charged and authorized to bring the culture in line with the high expectations of North Carolina’s citizens, the mess at the patrol belongs to her. Sacrificing a loyal friend and subordinate may be just about as distasteful as the human sacrifice of earlier times. Most people have no stomach for it. But presidents, governors, and mayors who want to succeed have to come to terms with the necessity to act when the occasion demands it.
Show us the money VIEWPOINT
JOE CONASON Syndicated Columnist So often are the certitudes and pronouncements of the chattering class simply mistaken that they must always be treated with deep skepticism. That is especially true when anything important is at stake — from the arguments for invading Iraq several years ago to today’s economic stagnation. Whatever the conventional wisdom tells you must be true is almost certainly false. The choral complaint emanating from every mainstream-media outlet — and the mouth of nearly every mainstream pundit — is that the federal government is spending too much and that the public will not stand for it anymore. “We must bring deficits under control!” they tell us. “The American people distrust government because spending is out of control!” they cry. Rick Santelli, the loudest mouth on the CNBC business cable channel and a revered figure in the tea party movement, put it most succinctly the other day when he screamed, “Stop spending!” Cutting spending is not just bad economics; it’s bad politics, too. Demands for the government to stop spending usually come with an asterisk and a footnote: stop spending on everyone except me. A self-styled conservative in Congress who supposedly hates spending will
vote against extending unemployment benefits, then turn around and protect federal subsidies to wealthy corporate farmers. Other conservatives will fight against increased spending on mass transit, new schools or infrastructure, while promoting bloated weapons programs that the Pentagon doesn’t even want — because the contractor has donated to their campaign or operates a manufacturing plant in their districts. Cut spending, but don’t cut spending on my priorities, no matter how wasteful. Even if hypocrisy were not so rampant, however, the demands to slash government spending at this stage in the economic recovery are profoundly in error. While one pundit after another warns of the risks of growing deficits, none of those potential risks is imminent. Instead, the nation and the world face the risk of a renewed recession, worse than the last — just as the country sank into recession again in 1937, following the first signs of growth after the Great Depression. Corporate investment and consumer confidence aren’t nearly strong enough to provide the number of new jobs needed — and only when employment begins to move sharply upward will revenues begin to grow and deficits start to shrink. Cutting spending is not just bad economics; it’s bad politics, too. The Obama administration’s stimulus spending last year was just enough to prevent the Great Recession from deepening into another depression, but not nearly enough to lift the country toward a broad and full recovery. Lacking the courage of their traditional convictions, the president and his Democratic majorities in Congress tried too hard to please the Republicans, the conservatives and the Wash-
ington press corps. Trimming the stimulus too much and refusing to push hard for a second round this year has made the Democrats look weak — and left too many working families in distress. The noisy Santelli and the publicity surrounding the tea party movement have fostered the misleading notion that most Americans oppose spending to put the country back to work. In fact, as Michael Lind pointed out recently in Salon.com, the latest USA Today/Gallup Poll shows that a substantial majority favor more spending rather than less. Published last month, that survey reported 60 percent support “additional government spending to create jobs and stimulate the economy,” with fewer than 40 percent opposed. For Democrats hoping to stem their expected midterm losses in November, that poll contained an important message. Fully 83 percent of Democratic voters and 52 percent of independents said that they support a second round of stimulus spending — while 61 percent of Republicans were opposed. The Republicans who favor more spending, nearly 40 percent, are most likely to be white working-class males who have lost their jobs or fear losing them. Why are Democrats in Congress and the White House missing the opportunity to motivate their own base, while appealing to independents and disaffected Republican workers? They are listening too closely to the conventional wisdom, that’s why — and as always, it is leading them in the wrong direction. Joe Conason writes for the New York Observer (www. observer.com).

FROM PAGE 1 GRANTS From page 1 addressed smaller projects and startups. “This has caused us to have an influx of people that ordinarily would probably have never touched base with us before they started doing some sort of project,” Googe said. “I think this is just representative of that new set of guidelines to encourage smaller businesses.” Googe says an increased emphasis on micro companies could help the county’s economy. “If you read all of the information about economic development and growth, they’ll tell you that the bulk of the new jobs are going to come from small companies, and most of the Fortune 500 companies are actually downsizing,” he said. While the county hasn’t turned its back on big businesses, commissioners and EDC staff have seen merits in opening up opportunities for smaller companies. “We’ve given incentives to larger companies,” said Commissioner Chairman Max Walser. “But when things get as bad as they’ve been, we perhaps should not draw the line on larger companies. That’s why we’ve created these new
TIMES From page 1 schedule, I made time to drive over there with my two children. We arrived as Cheryl, with the help of a neighbor, finished up laying out all this food. She had two types of chicken, rolls, baked beans, green beans, meatballs, macaroni and cheese, stuffing, salad, tea and soda, and there was enough to feed a hundred people. We stayed about an hour and all ate a little something. I waited, hoping to see this caravan of vehicles coming down the driveway for this complete act of kindness and goodwill. I wanted a picture of someone who needed it taking advantage of a free meal, thanking someone who wasn’t out for any pub-
guidelines. Anyone who wants to create jobs and spend $2 million on infrastructure we’re willing to support.” Though 15 jobs may not sound like many by itself, the small number of jobs over a handful of small businesses eventually adds up. “Any job creation we can have in Davidson County is important because of all the losses we’ve had,” Walser said. “If we can create 15 jobs, that’s well and good for our people because we have so many people out of work.” Googe says that the company’s investment in the county will increase tax revenue as well as stimulate the economy. And eventually, Googe added, 15 jobs may turn into more. “If you look at what we’ve been able to accomplish by dealing with these smaller companies, over a period of time the multiplier of those companies ends up creating thousands of jobs,” he said. And on some level, any number of jobs will be a good thing for the people and the families who get them. “I think we’ve made great progress,” Walser said. “We’re doing a good job of attracting industry and creating jobs. We’re not there yet, but I think real progress has been made.” Staff Writer Erin Wiltgen can be reached at 888-3576 or at newsdesk@tvilletimes.com.
licity or notoriety. The journalistic side of me wanted a heart-touching story to share with our readers, a gesture that would inspire others to help out a fellow citizen. Only two people showed up while I was there, but Cheryl called me later that evening and said dozens more came once the day cooled off. She called it a “great day.” My kids talked about Cheryl the rest of the day and how nice she was to them. Maybe children don’t see enough of this type of random kindness and sharing. A feeling of pride stayed with me the rest of the weekend, a sense that I showed my kids how good people can be when they really want to. For the most part, people generally do the right thing when someone else is watching, but I find the real
TRUCK From page 1 Dailey said. “They have quite a bit of money, and they just decided to replace their whole fleet.” Dailey said a committee from the fire department, complete with a city mechanic, traveled to South Carolina to look at the truck. The committee looked at maintenance records, did a maintenance check, drove the truck and pumped it. “Everything worked out really well with it,” Dailey said. “We were happy with what we saw. The truck did pump really well. We didn’t see any problems there, and that’s the main thing, that’s the main operation.” To purchase the used truck would cost $80,000, a lowered price from the original $100,000. Dailey said that the Bluffton fire department put it out for bids but for whatever reason didn’t get any offers and so lowered the price when Thomasville began negotiations. Tony Jarrett, Thomasville finance director, said that the purchase is within the budget, approved July 1. The budget allows for $91,500 worth of equipment for the fire department, and the department will forego the two items that money was set aside for in favor of the truck. “This has forced me to prioritize,”
acts of kindness occur when nobody is looking. Cheryl McCarthy didn’t invite me over to her house so I could write a story about her and tell everyone how great she is. Remember, she nearly never gave me the time of day. This is a story I wanted to share with others, an example of what someone who cares can do if they put their mind to it. Thanks for lunch, Cheryl. Thanks for treating my kids so well and for showing them something I hope will stay with them forever. What you showed me is that there really is goodness in the world, and there are times when we all need to be reminded of that in one way or another. Staff Writer Eliot Duke can be reached at 888-3578, or duke@tvilletimes.com.
Dailey said. “With this truck being out of service, we have no reserve fire trucks. If any of the trucks in our fleet go down, we have no trucks to replace it with. That’s the dilemma we’re in.” Because the city must pay for the truck in cash, Jarrett suggested financing a few items for the police department approved in the budget to be paid with cash. That would still leave the city 25,000 short to pay outright, but Jarrett said that money could be made up easily through a possible vacancy in the fire department and by selling the truck. “We’d like to sell the old truck and see how much we can get for it,” Jarrett said. “I’ve been called a dreamer, but I still think we can get $10,000 for it.” The Bluffton Fire Department asked for a $4,500 non-refundable deposit to be made on the truck by today. The deposit would hold the truck at the $80,000 price. City Manager Kelly Craver chose to pay the deposit because if the city had waited, Bluffton would have handed the truck over to another company to sell it for them, increasing the price.

Reutimann gets true victory BY REID SPENCER NASCARMedia.com JOLIET, Ill. — David Reutimann held off Carl Edwards in a green-flag run after the final round of pit stops Saturday night and picked up his second career NASCAR Sprint Cup victory in the LifeLock.com 400 at Chicagoland Speedway. Reutimann, who is expected to re-sign with Michael Waltrip Racing, won for the first time since May 2009, when he went to Victory Lane in the rain-shortened CocaCola 600 at Charlotte. Edwards ran second in an encouraging performance for the beleaguered No. 99 Roush Fenway Ford team. Jeff Gordon finished third, followed by Clint Bowyer and polesitter Jamie McMurray. Kasey Kahne, Jeff Burton, Denny Hamlin, Tony Stewart and Paul Menard completed the top 10 in the 19th series race of the season. What was an excellent night for Reutimann, Edwards and Gordon was a disaster for Cup leader Kevin Harvick and fourtime defending series champion Jimmie Johnson. Harvick fought trouble all race long, at one point bringing his No. 29 Chevrolet to the garage

BY BRIANNA GORMAN There’s another Plumlee headed to Duke. Marshall Plumlee, younger brother of current Blue Devils Miles and Mason, committed to Duke on Saturday night his father, Perky, confirmed Sunday. Marshall, who stands at 7-0, 215 pounds, is a four-star recruit and is ranked the fifth best center in the class of 2011 according to Scout.com. The rising senior at Christ School in Arden was recruited by schools like Purdue, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Florida, N.C. State, but in the end his decision came down to two other ACC schools. “When it got down to the final, final stages he was torn between Duke and Virginia,” Perky said. Perky said Marshall agonized over the decision, but he ultimately felt the most comfortable and natural at Duke. “It just took a little time for Marshall to satisfy himself that [Duke] was the best fit for him and presented the best opportunity,” Perky said. “He had other good schools that recruited him and they would be good choices as well, but ultimately he felt like this would be a great opportunity for him.” Of course the chance to play with his brothers didn’t hurt. Perky said throughout Marshall’s recruiting process they tried not to focus on the brothers aspect and instead questioned what would be the best decision if Marshall were an only child. But now that Marshall has decided to join Miles and Mason, their parents are thrilled. “That’s an added bonus,” Perky said. “I think it’s just kind of sinking in for us. You can’t even really fantasize about that -— at least three years ago we couldn’t. ... Now that he’s made his decision, having his brothers there is icing on the cake. They are all very close and it makes us happy as parents.”

The turbulent season goes on for the HiToms, who have lost three in a row after winning a pair and thinking the season may just turn itself around. On Friday, the Tommies suffered a 9-4 loss to the Asheboro Copperheads, a team they beat in the bottom of the ninth one night before. Asheboro built a 5-0 lead for a second straight night, this time holding on to their advantage. Tanner Mathis and Alex Yarbrough had three hits each in the game. Cody Penny took the loss lasting only four innings. On Saturday, the HiToms dropped another
two-run game, this time to the Martinsville Mustangs by a 4-2 score. Yarbrough was again the highlight for the HiToms, delivering three hits and driving in both runs. Parker Thomas allowed three runs and struck out four in the loss. Sunday, the Gastonia Grizzlies unleashed on the HiToms at Finch Field, blanking them 7-0. Michael Hamann lasted just one inning in the loss. Tyler Frederick was the only HiToms with multiple hits. With a 12-26 record, the chances of the HiToms making the playoffs are slim. They will try their luck on Wednesday when they host the Copperheads at 7 p.m.

Brown gets back to winning ways on wild night at BG BG REPORT Reigning Champion Tim Brown shook the monkey off his back on Saturday, taking the checkered in the Great Clips 100 at Bowman Gray Stadium and hopefully breaking his recent string of bad luck and mediocre performances. Brown had his work cut out for him in one of the wildest races of the season for the Bill Plem-

BROWN From page 7 Christopher’s first time racing at Bowman Gray Stadium, the veteran racer is a respected competitor with several accomplishments under his belt, including national championships. Many were looking forward to seeing how Christopher would fare at “the Madhouse.” When the green flag fell, Christopher was able to hold his line and defend the lead from Jonathan Brown of Winston-Salem , who started on the outside front row. Christopher continued to battle with Jonathan Brown when early cautions brought about double-file restarts. During another double-file restart on lap 25, Christopher spun his tires and allowed Jonathan Brown to power past him to claim the lead. The next 50 laps saw several more double-file restarts and a riveting cat and mouse game between Jonathan Brown, Christopher, and Tim Brown. As Christopher and Jonathan Brown tangled during a restart, Tim Brown took advantage of the situation to grab the lead from the outside. The No. 83 of Tim Brown sailed ahead at the front of the field until the final double-file restart gave Brian Loftin of Lexington a chance to challenge from the outside. Loftin slipped by Brown to take over the lead, until a quick tap to the rear from Brown sent Loftin to the outside just seconds later. Brown reclaimed the lead and went on to take the checkered. “With all the cautions
and double-file restarts, it had to be a good show for the fans, because it sure was a lot of fun from the driver’s seat,” said Tim Brown, who was relieved to break his recent streak of bad luck. “We’ve struggled over the last couple weeks here and we hadn’t been to Victory Lane in a few weeks,” said Brown. “It just hasn’t been the year that we expect to have. But tonight we posted our sixth pole of the year and our third win. Out of 10 races, that’s pretty stout. It definitely helps when you can put a ‘W’ on the board.” Meanwhile, Christopher tangled with Stadium veteran Junior Miller of Danbury as Miller darted to the inside and made a move to pass. Miller and Christopher banged as they battled side-by-side, and a shot from Christopher sent Miller spinning into the infield and into the wall. The impact sent Christopher spinning as well and dropped him back to the rear. The win was Tim Brown’s third of the season and 53rd of his career. Brian Loftin fin-

Yarbrough garners top hitter award for July 5-11 TIMES STAFF REPORT The Coastal Plain League has announced that Alex Yarbrough of the HiToms was named the Rawlings Hitter of the Week, while Gastonia’s Robert Jeroszko was named Rawlings Pitcher of the Week for week six of action (July 5-11). Yarbrough, a freshman at Mississippi, started in all seven games for the HiToms. In those games, he batted .464 with 13 hits, four RBIs and four runs scored. Of his 13 hits, seven went for extra bases, including four doubles, two triples and one home run. He tallied a league-high 24 total bases, while also maintaining a .857 slugging percentage and .464 onbase percentage.
On the mound, Jeroszko a junior from College of Charleston, was masterful in his only the start of the week. The 6-3, 200-pound right-hander threw seven scoreless innings and earned the victory against the HiToms on July 11 while posting a perfect 0.00 ERA. In his seven innings of work, he scattered six hits, struck out eight and did not allow a walk before allowing his bullpen to finish the game for a combined shutout.

HOOPS From page 7 Perky said Marshall has always been tall for his age, so unlike his brothers he always has been an interior player. He said Marshall feels the most comfortable around the basket and is not the type of big man who will take a lot of perimeter shots. Still, Perky said his youngest son knows he has a lot of work to do before stepping on Duke’s campus. “Marshall is a work in progress,” Perky said. “He realizes he’s going to have to get a lot stronger and more physical before he makes much of a contribution. But ultimately he has a pretty athletic body and he runs the floor well. He has good motor, and he plays hard. I think one of the things he’ll bring is he’s very coachable and he will execute and do what coaches will ask him to do. Plumlee is the third player to commit to Duke for 2011, joining center Tyler Adams and small forward Michael Gbinije.
TRUE From page 7 to change the fuel pump and fuel pump cable. He lost 16 laps in the process and finished 34th, 16 laps down. Johnson may have had the fastest car — having led the first 92 laps — but he hurt his own cause twice before the race was 150 laps old. On the way to a green-flag stop on Lap 93, Johnson missed the entrance to pit road, and lost the lead to McMurray. He spent the next 40 laps running down the driver of the No. 1 Chevy. Less than two laps after a restart on Lap 136, Johnson spun on the backstretch while running in close quarters with the No. 56 Toyota of Martin Truex Jr. It was impossible to tell, even after multiple replays, whether Truex’s car made slight contact with Johnson’s Chevy or whether Truex simply took the air off Johnson’s spoiler and caused him to lose control. Whatever the case, Johnson restarted 24th on Lap 14, and matters got worse. On Lap 169, Johnson radioed, “Right front flat — I scrubbed the wall a little bit,” and brought his car to pit road for four new tires. He came out of the pits two laps down and ultimately finished 25th, one lap down.
