Summer of 2010 one of hottest on record

Uptown Thomasville sets city on new path

BY ERIN WILTGEN

BY ELIOT DUKE

Staff Writer

Despite the slight reprieve in August, summer 2010 has certainly marked its name in the temperature history books. Piedmont Triad International Airport in Greensboro, the closest long-term weather observation in the area, has the weather since June 1, 2010, as the warmest on record. The next closest is the summer of 1925. “It’s been warmer than normal, much warmer than normal,” said Ryan Boyles, state climatologist and director of the State Climate Office of North Carolina. “For June and July, in many locations in the state, it’s been the warmest on record.” Measurements such as the warmest month or the warmest summer look at average temperatures. Boyles said the minimum temperatures have been extremely warm while the maximum temperatures measure only the sixth warmest. Across the country, Delaware and New Jersey also recorded the hottest June ever, but other areas saw cooler temperatures and nationwide June clocked in as the eighth warmest. The Tar Heel State’s heat wave came hard on the heels of one of the coldest winters on record. Summer and fall of 2009 averaged on the cooler side, and given the extreme winter weather, Boyles says he wouldn’t have expected such a quick turnaround. “North Carolina has one of the most variable and complex climates in the Eastern U.S.,” he said. “In some regard, it’s not unusual for us to go from cold to warm. That being said, to go from very cold to very warm so quickly,

53,000 farms recover from the recession. Under the program, five state and federal programs have come together to offer grant money focused on lowering energy costs, launching renewable energy projects, implementing value-added production and developing other sources of farm income.

A local non-profit organization is hoping a new logo and a fresh approach towards opening lines of communication within the city will be just what downtown Thomasville needs. It all starts with a name change. Uptown Thomasville, Inc. is a locally-funded organization comprised of residents, professionals and property and business owners committed to developing partnerships and implementing plans that encourages revitalization, community involvement and business growth. The purpose is to re-establish the Uptown Business District into a thriving, diverse and economically vibrant city center, according to the organization’s mission statement. “This is not strictly for Thomasville businesses,” Joe Hedgpeth, co-chairman of Uptown Thomasville, Inc. and owner of Best in Show on Salem Street, said. “This is for anybody who wants to join and be part of what we’re trying to do. We want this to be a new change so everyone will recognize it. We don’t want people thinking this is just the same old thing. We’re doing this to bring a positive slant to uptown Thomasville. It’s time for us, as a community, to step up. I think we’re

Program to assist N.C. farmers BY ERIN WILTGEN

‘They had a bad couple years of the drought. They finally started to get their feet under them ... and then here we go right into the recession. It’s been a tough last five years for farmers.’

Staff Writer The difficulty of farm life is nothing new to Diane Koontz. Residing on a small, family-run farm in Midway with a splattering of extended family, Koontz is well-accustomed to the ups and downs of a life dependent on the forces of nature. After all, the drought of 2007-08 didn’t exactly make growing crops easy. But the recent downturn of the economy has dug farmers in an even deeper hole. “When we try to sell things, we don’t make as much off of it,” said Koontz, whose farm grows hay, feed corn and garden vegetables. “It costs more to plant, and then when you go to sell, you

‘Bluegrass and BBQ’ to collect school supplies for students BY ELIOT DUKE Staff Writer With school starting in less than a week, parents and students are making final preparations to get ready for classes. For some families, the new school year is a financial burden that often leads to students going to class without everything they need. Communities In School of Thomasville is holding a fundraiser this weekend in an effort to ensure no Chair City student goes without a bookbag, colored pencil or notebook. “Back to School, Bluegrass & BBQ” will be held this Saturday from 5-8 p.m. at Pace Park off Memorial Park Drive where all proceeds will go toward providing students with needed school supplies. Tickets cost $15 and people are asked to bring school supply items as donations. “We’re trying to provide the chil-

dren with whatever they need to be successful,” Judy Younts, director of CIS of Thomasville, said. “The children are coming in next Wednesday and we want to make sure they have what they need for the job. We’re all about making taxpayers and not tax-takers. It all starts when they enter first grade or that first kindergarten class.” This is the first year CIS of Thomasville has held such an event. Cook’s Barbeque is sponsoring the food and local musicians Mitch Snow, Scott Huffman and Robert Sprye will be providing the entertainment. The Thomasville High School marching band also will be performing its latest halftime show. “This is a combination of a fundraiser and an opportunity for us to do a back-to-school supplies drive so we can have supplies available when kids come back,” said Mary Jane Akerman, Thomasville City

FOCUS

Newly discovered: The 29th Book of Acts MUSICALLY SPEAKING

JOSEF WALKER Guest Columnist

Recently, while cleaning the cellar at my house, (my close friends are doubting this story already), I discovered a very old copy of the Bible. It obviously must have belonged to one of my ancestors. Since I enjoy the writings of Saint Paul, I decided to look at the Book of Acts and was surprised to find, for the very first time the 29th chapter. I wanted to share it with you. May you find it a Blessing, as I did.

ACTS XXIX

And it came to pass, when Paul was at Corinth, he and certain disciples came upon a mob that was stoning an organist. 2. And Paul said unto them, “What then hath he done unto thee that his head should be bruised?” 3. And the people cried with one voice, “He hath played too loud. 4. Yea, in the singing of psalms, he maketh our heads to ring as if they were beaten with hammers. 5. Behold, he sitteth up high in the loft, and mighty are the pipes and mighty is noise thereof, and though there be few of us below, he nonetheless playeth with all the stops, the Assyrian trumpet stop and the stop of the ram’s horn and the stop that soundeth like the sawing of stone,

and we cannot hear the words that cometh out of our own mouths. 6. He always tosseth in variations that confuse us mightily and he playeth loud and discordant and always in a militant tempo, so that we have not time to breathe as we sing. 7. Lo, he is a plague upon the faith and should be chastised. 8. Paul, hearing this, had himself, picked up a stone, and was about to cast it, but he set it down and bade the organist come forward. 9. He was a narrow man, pale of complexion, dry, flaking, thin of hair. 10. And Paul said unto him, “Why hath thou so abused thy brethren?” 1. And the organist replied, “I could not hear them singing from where I sat, and therefore played the louder so as to encourage them.” 12. And Paul turned round to the mob and said loudly, “Let him who has never played an organ cast the first stone.” 13. And they cast stones for a while until their arms were tired from the throwing and Paul bade the organist repent and he did. 14. And Paul said unto him, “Thou shalt take up the flute and play it for 30 days, to cleanse thy spirit,” and afterwards they returned to Corinth and sang psalms unaccompanied and then had coffee and were refreshed in the faith. I need to hasten at this point to assure you that I am very well treated and so this is no reflection whatsoever, of my situation. I am very well treated and quite happy in my current position. Many of my colleagues are not so fortunate. While this was intended to be humorous, I have never know of a guild organist who was not

accused of playing too loudly, it just seems to come with the territory. This “find” in my cellar may have been a very good thing. I would guess that some readers go searching for their misplaced Bible to look for the 29th Chapter of Acts. Once you find your missing Bible, you can refer to it more often. When you read the part about “be ye kind one to another,” remember that also applies to the staff of your church. If you have a good organist, you are very blessed indeed. Keep him or her. Very few students are studying organ now and even fewer are seeking a career as church musicians. All churches are aware of this crucial shortage of qualified organists. Due to deaths of Guild organists and lack of students graduating in organ, the American Guild of Organists (AGO) is loosing membership every year, although through seminars and workshops at colleges and universities, we seek to draw more talented young music majors into the field of organ performance in sacred music. Increasingly Choir Directors, Ministers of Music and Choirmasters who play the organ find themselves being pressed into service with dual roles. There, now wasn’t that was enlightening? I trust having read that lost chapter from the Book of Acts really was refreshing for you. Kind of puts a song in your heart. Right? Josef Walker is Choirmaster/Organist of Heidelberg United Church of Christ and serves on the executive board of the American Guild of Organists.

Students gain leadership experience while giving back to community TIMES STAFF REPORT Across the state, rising high school seniors are graduating this week from an eight-week internship program designed to give them work and leadership experience in the nonprofit world. The elite group includes Delfina Membreno, Shuntaria Wood and Talesha Green, all from Thomasville High School. The internships, part of the Summer Youth Community Development Leadership Program, are supported and coordinated by the North Carolina Community Development Initiative. The program gives students experience at host nonprofit organizations in their own communities and provides them with leadership training and life skills. Lexington Housing Community Development Corporation hosted Membreno and Wood. Unity Builders, Inc. of High Point hosted Green. In exchange for the work they did, students received a stipend from the Initiative. The students were encouraged to save half the money for furthering their education beyond high school. During the program, the Initiative brought all the interns together for four Leadership Academy sessions in Raleigh during which they developed and practiced leadership skills, learned about financial literacy and shared experiences from the field. “I learned skills that I will carry with me for the rest on my life,” said Green, “especially on how to network with people who are different from you.” For Membreno, Wood and Green, the program offered exposure to inspirational community and business leaders; a chance to learn about nonprofits and community develop-

ment as potential career options; and a first-hand look at the programs and services available to help members of their own community. “ T h i s has been one of the most rew a r d i n g Membreno jobs anyone could ask for,” Wood said. “The sessions were beneficial throughout my Wood s u m m e r, and I am certain that I can carry them with me in the future. I have had the privilege of working on Green a job that increases faith, broadens my focus and motivates me to continue to give back to my community.” Unity Builders, Inc. of High Point works to create wealth and build assets for communities. Green’s work for Unity Builders involved assisting with projects and learning about the management of a nonprofit business. Lexington Housing CDC offers services to educate homebuyers, develop new affordable housing and improve existing housing. During

the summer, Membreno and Wood developed a marketing strategy for Lexington Housing CDC, including preparing brochures and newsletters, marketing the services of the organization and evaluating the results. “Working in the nonprofit sector has been an amazing and beneficial experience for me,” said Membreno. “During these past weeks, I have learned how to put on the new personality of a leader. Instead of going with the flow and taking life as it is, leaders take action and make positive changes to the world.” The Raleigh-based Initiative is a nonprofit intermediary, providing funding and services to community development corporations throughout the state. “One of the goals of the Youth Community Development Leadership Program is to spark an interest in community economic development among new generations of leaders,” said Shereé Ramirez, Chief Grants Officer for the Initiative. “We hope some of the interns will become future leaders within the nonprofit sector, but more than that, we hope that they will all learn something during the course of the program that will enable them to be the best possible leader that they can be in their chosen field.” This was the third year of the program. The 2010 class of 39 students reflected vast growth from the initial class of 14.

When is it ‘bigoted’ to criticize religion? VIEWPOINT

DAVID HARSANYI Syndicated Columnist When it comes to the proposed Islamic center near ground zero, I subscribe to President Barack Obama’s position: “Muslims have the same right to practice their religion as anyone else in this country.” But that’s old news. Today the debate is the debate. And this debate is far more consequential. There are those who continue to make the facile claim that any protest over Park51 is a display in un-American intolerance and contempt for the Constitution. This position treats criticism of faith — religious institutions and symbols included — as tantamount to “bigotry.” Given that there remains overwhelming opposition to the ground zero mosque, this viewpoint would mean that 70 percent of Americans are impulsively hostile to freedom of religion and irrationally narrow-minded. Could be. Or maybe a few of these folks believe the First Amendment features more than one clause. Even a newfound reverence for religious liberty on the left does not negate our right to protest and criticize the philosophical disposition of others. And applying public pressure in an effort to shut down a project is as American as protesting the arrival of a new Walmart. Religious institutions, as far as I can tell, are not exempted from these disputes. In 2008, thousands of gay rights activists protested the Mormon temple in Westwood, Calif., for its role in passing Proposition 8 — the ban on same-sex marriage. This grew into a national protest to undermine the influence of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints — even though not every Mormon was involved. I don’t recall anti-Mormon protesters being referred to as bigots for targeting religion; it appeared to be just the opposite, in fact. And if I am offended by aspects

of Mormon theology, why not voice those concerns? Put it this way: If Mormons proposed the erection of a 13-story community center in West Hollywood or the West Village, I would be happy to join the outcry of protest. Though only a fraction of Catholic priests are pedophiles, the entire Roman Catholic Church is routinely broad-brushed as corrupt and depraved. I’ve not heard those who make generalizations about Catholicism referred to as bigots in Time magazine. Nor have I heard those who regularly disparage evangelicals called intolerant. These groups inject themselves into political and cultural disputes of the day — as they have every right to do — so they become fair game. And by building the Islamic center near ground zero, the backers of Park51 insert themselves in a broader political conversation. As a person with a libertarian political temperament, I would loathe to see government shut down religious expression. As an atheist, I am distrustful of religion’s influence on that freedom. But in the end, one is a discussion about the role of government in society and the other is a discussion about civilization. Few people in this debate make that distinction. As we know, only a fraction of Muslims are radicalized to violence. Most Muslims are peaceful — free to practice their religion unencumbered. All of this is indisputable. Prospectively speaking, unlike many other faiths, ideological Islam has a poor track record of compatibility with liberal ideals. Surely, that’s worth a discussion in a free society. Or is it a case of intolerance to bring it up? I’ve read numerous columns claiming that “allowing” a mosque to be built near ground zero is proof of our tolerant goodness. To be certain. But surely our ability to conduct a peaceful debate over the meaning of institutions, including religious ones, is also a reflection of that greatness.

Religious freedom VIEWPOINT

MARTHA R. CARR Syndicated Columnist Last week President Obama supported the idea of a mosque being built near ground zero in New York City where 2,800 innocent people were murdered. The mosque would be built on private land and used as a religious gathering place. There is a lot of hurt feelings and controversy surrounding the site and no wonder. It will sit near the largest mass murder in American history. The human beings who lost their lives on September 11th, 2001, including the 125 people who died in the Pentagon and the 41 people who died in Pennsylvania, were not casualties of war but victims of a massive crime formulated by a psychopath, Osama Bin Laden. Bin Laden is a wealthy sociopath who was cut out of the family fortune, grew bitter and resentful and started devising a plan for revenge. He is also a coward who chose to manipulate the minds of men who grew up with far less than he did and directed them to do his dirty work. He built up an enemy for them, the US that stood

for all that they lacked. Bin Laden used their isolation and poverty to spin the story that would finally get 19 men to turn themselves into terrorists and fly planes into buildings and the ground of Pennsylvania without regard for human life, including their own. You have to wonder how he got around the part when he was making his pitch about growing up in excessive wealth. There is nothing to admire about Bin Laden, or even pity, and there is still hope that someday he will face an international jury and finally be shown as that pathetic figure and pay for what were his crimes. Until then, we need to remember that Bin Laden used religion, specifically the Muslim religion, and twisted the edicts into something dark and violent in order to satisfy a personal and petty vendetta. That’s nothing new. Small men, and a few women, with clever minds and no backbone have been using the same ploy for about two thousand years. However, what’s really marked past atrocities in the long run has never been the act of the mad man but the response of humanity. We didn’t kick out all of the Germans after we found out about the Holocaust. We brought Hitler’s henchmen to trial. Even when we got it wrong and placed thousands of Japanese-Americans in internment camps we later realized we had been wrong and apologized. The same is true of 9/11. A group of men lead by Bin Laden commit-

ted murder and should be brought to justice. That does not include everyone who practices the Muslim faith. If we fail to see the difference then we begin to help Bin Laden accomplish one of his main goals, which is to divide by fear and then conquer the ideal of democracy. Tyranny wins on that day. The presence of a mosque so close to the site in lower Manhattan may be a painful reminder but frankly so is the empty space. We can use that reminder though in a way that Bin Laden apparently couldn’t imagine. We can look at the mosque and remember, yet again, that we built this country on the idea that all men are created equal and can be free from religious persecution of any kind. We can be reminded that our belief in each other is stronger than the act of 19 terrorists. We can honor all of those who perished by allowing those who own the land to use it to build a mosque and rise above the small and petty definition Bin Laden had for us. This is the best antidote we have to turn the impressionable minds of any other isolated and impoverished young men that Bin Laden and others like him are targeting now. It’s also the best example we can set for the impressionable minds right around us who are wondering how to love their neighbors as themselves.

We’re just asking people to come because all the money goes to helping children in Thomasville get school supplies. It’s kind of sad to see a child come to school with their supplies in a plastic grocery bag. We’ve already received a lot of calls from parents who can’t get what their child needs for school.” TCS start the new year next Wednesday and Younts said there is still a big need for basic school supplies like backpacks, bookbags, pencils, paper, hand sanitizer, crayons, safety scissors, rulers and markers. “These are all tools children need to do their jobs,” Younts said. “This is all about the children. Every child in the classroom needs these tools and needs to have what their neighbors have. We’re excited to be using PACE Park and it will be a great evening for families.” Tickets can purchased at 400 Turner St. or at the event Saturday.

SUMMER From page 1

and in the same year — we can’t say the cause of the quick variation, but it certainly is unusual and unprecedented.” Unlike weather patterns that afflicted winter 2009-10 — namely El Nino and the arctic oscillation — summer weather is a bit more difficult to predict, Boyles says. “El Nino and the arctic oscillation, when they come into phase together, they amplify each other,” he said. “We don’t really know for the summer. We have had a lot of high pressure in place, which allows plenty of warm air to stay over us.” The oceans also have been warmer, transferring heat into the southeastern U.S. Whatever the cause, the heat is here and already has made its mark. “We are seeing drought conditions already in part of the state,” Boyles said. “The Yadkin River Basin has been fairly wet over the last several weeks and even months.” Davidson County so far seems to be in the clear, but according to the North Carolina Drought Management Council, 37 counties — including Guilford and Forsyth — have been labeled abnormally dry, 37 are in moderate drought and four have reached severe drought. All of the counties suffering from severe drought cluster in the northwestern part of the state. While extreme heat doesn’t always mean lack of water, especially since thunderstorms often roll in after the heat of the day, high temperatures don’t help already low rainfall. “Very warm temperatures can exacerbate dry conditions and increase

ON THE RECORD The highest temperature ever recorded in North Carolina was 110 degrees Fahrenheit in Fayetteville on Aug. 21, 1983. Nationwide, the highest temperature ever recorded was 134 degrees Fahrenheit in Greenland Ranch, Calif., on July 10, 1913.

the stress on our water supply,” Boyles said. “The real key is to be aware of where your water comes from and take status of it and make sure that you’re not having any problems.” Other problems caused by the heat have been loss of crops, particularly corn, an increased fire risk and a few fish deaths from abnormally warm water. Water management systems and water supplies, on the other hand, seem to be in good shape because of a wet winter and fall. “Our water resources at the start of this year were very good,” Boyles said. “We were able to recharge, and it’s helping us with the short-term problems we’ve had this summer.” And while the problems may remain shortterm for the time-being, Boyles added that if the dry spell continues into the fall and early winter, it could mean trouble for next summer. “We look to the winter time for recovery, to recharge our ground water and resources,” Boyles said. “If we have dry periods extending into the winter, we won’t have a recharge, and that will affect us going into the next summer.”

If there was an award handed out for the boldest scheduling move in 2009, the Cox Mill Chargers would be a unanimous pick. Playing its first football game in school history, the Chargers opened up against powerhouse Thomasville. As many predicted, the Bulldogs won easily by a 31-0 score,

but Thomasville assistant coach Stan Baranowski believes the opposition will be much better this time around. “We looked at the scrimmage tape and they looked to be much improved,” said Baranowski. “They are a well-coached team.” Thomasville has great coaching as well, and early signs from the scrimmage last week show the

50-yard line, and that is a tribute to our defense and some of the guys who return from last year.

Bud to sponsor Harvick Budweiser has a rich NASCAR tradition, sponsoring some of the sport’s most celebrated drivers, including Bobby Labonte, Darrell Waltrip, Bill Elliott, Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Kasey Kahne. Tuesday, Budweiser announced Richard Childress Racing driver Kevin Harvick will become the next star to take the wheel of the iconic Budweiser car when the 2011 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series season begins in February. “Budweiser’s involvement in NASCAR dates back more than three decades, and we’re excited to have as successful a driver as Kevin Harvick to usher in a new era for Budweiser,” said Mark Wright, vice president of media, sports & entertainment marketing, Anheuser-Busch. “Kevin also benefits from having the support of a highly respected owner in Richard Childress and the great people of Richard Childress Racing, who will help put the No. 29 Budweiser Chevrolet in a position to challenge for Sprint Cup championships.” Under the terms of the deal, Budweiser will serve as primary sponsor of the No. 29 Chevrolet for 20 points races, two non-points races during Speedweeks and co-primary sponsor of

WEEK 1 SCHEDULE

Yoh Football Center Tuesday, Duke coach David Cutcliffe said Wesley Oglesby, who was No. 1 on the depth chart at right defensive end entering fall camp, is out with an ankle injury while reserve left defensive end Sydney Sarmiento has a knee injury. “Our defensive line is beat up a bit,” Cutcliffe said. “Not much you can do about that. I could go on and on about the numbers there.” In Monday night’s first scrimmage of the new season, redshirt senior

Patrick Egboh and redshirt sophomore Kenny Anunike played end positions while Charlie Hatcher, a redshirt junior, manned nose guard. Duke defensive coordinator Marion Hobby praised those three for their leadership on Tuesday. Hobby singled out Anunike, a converted tight end, for his improvement. “He’s added a lot to the pass rush,” Hobby said. “He’s a high-strung, hyper-active guy that I like to see play because he

When East Davidson takes the field Friday night at home against Randleman, their new flexbone offense may look ugly at times, and that is somet h i n g h e a d coach Bryan Ling erfelt fully Lingerfelt expects. “Last Monday, when we got to hit and it was for real, to the scrimmage on Friday, I was pleased with our progression,” he said. “We are not close to where we need to be, but the kids are trying to get it right. We are going to make a lot of mistakes, but we can learn from them. It is just going to take some time.” East edged past the Tigers for the win on a late touchdown last year, but a lot has changed for the Golden Eagles since then. Leading rusher Dylan Gallimore is likely our for the year, and of course, this new offense is being installed. There will also be a lot on the shoulders of the East defense. Randleman has some good skill players, so keeping the Tigers out of the end zone will be a big concern as well. And with the offense being so new, the Golden Eagles may not score many points themselves. “For us to have success, we need to be able to have long, sustained drives and do not turn the ball over,” Lingerfelt said. “We also need to create some turnovers against them like we did last year. We intercepted them three times, so we have to be able to do that again.”

brings quite a bit of flair to a defense. He’s a little wild but that’s what good pass rushers are.” Despite that, Hobby and Cutcliffe will face some uncomfortable situations unless Oglesby and Sarmiento can get back on the field soon. It appears likely that Duke will have to play some true freshmen when they open the season Sept. 4 against Elon at Wallace Wade Stadium. “We have a lot of young football players and, unfortunately, we have to get them ready before they are ready to

Like East, the Ledford Panthers will have something ‘new’ in their arsenal this season — head coach Chris Adams. Previously an assistant for the Panthers before taking an administrative position at Central Davidson, Adams returns as the head man to guide Ledford during the 2010 campaign. Implementing his style of play has taken some time, but he is satisfied with the progress. “The kids have done well and I am pleased with what we are doing so far,” said Adams.

BY BRIANA GORMAN Durham Herald Sun CHAPEL HILL â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A home-and-home football series between North Carolina and Tennessee slated for 2011 and â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;12 appears to be canceled after the Vols requested to back out of the agreement, which was made five years ago. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Through verbal communication, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m anticipating that that will be the case but we have not formally done that,â&#x20AC;? Tennessee athletic director Mike Hamilton said. Hamilton said UT talked about moving the series to later in the decade or organizing a neutral site game, but neither option worked for the Tar Heels. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in discussions as far as the series â&#x20AC;&#x201D; should we play it, should it be postponed, should it just be canceled and if it is canceled, what are the ramifications in doing so,â&#x20AC;? UNC senior associate athletic director Larry Gallo said. The Vols â&#x20AC;&#x201D; who are heading into their first season under Coach Derek Dooley â&#x20AC;&#x201D; were to visit Chapel Hill in 2011,

DEFENSE From page 7 be ready,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Cutcliffe said. Duke already was in the middle of making changes to its defensive formations, moving from a straight 4-3 alignment to multiple fronts. Part of the reason was lack of depth along the defensive front. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to give them different looks,â&#x20AC;? Hobby said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to be a little unpredictable.â&#x20AC;? During Mondayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s scrimmage, linebacker Damien Thornton often lined up at defensive end in order to help put more pressure on the quarterback. He produced three tackles for loss, including one quarterback sack. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to frustrate the quarterback â&#x20AC;&#x201D; sack him, hit him, flush him, knock balls down,â&#x20AC;? Hobby said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to do a lot to of things to frustrate him.â&#x20AC;? Those are things the Blue Devils didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do

and the Tar Heels were scheduled to travel to Knoxville in 2012. Hamilton said he wanted to break up the Volsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; 2011 schedule, which includes a stretch of games against Cincinnati, Florida, North Carolina, Georgia, LSU and Alabama. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have made a conscious decision, just with the number of players that we have in our program right now, we probably should only play one non-conference BCS opponent,â&#x20AC;? Hamilton said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re very hopeful we might get a chance to play them somewhere else down the road, but it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t look like next year will work out.â&#x20AC;? Tennessee will have to pay a contract buyout if the school exercises the liquidated damages clause to vacate the series. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We understand what theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re trying to do, and they have to do whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best for them,â&#x20AC;? Gallo said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you were to ask me, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Is it disappointing that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not going to be playing them, possibly,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; then I would say it is dis-

much of while going 5-7 last season. While Duke ranked No. 9 in the 12-team ACC in total defense, allowing 368.6 yards per game, the Blue Devils were 11th in sacks with 18. Only Wake Forest and N.C. State had fewer than the 18 turnovers Duke forced last season. And Dukeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s opponents converted third downs into first downs 45 percent of the time, worst in the ACC. With three seniors playing linebacker plus senior cornerback Chris Rwabukamba and hard-hitting junior Matt Daniels anchoring the secondary, Duke has strength there.

From page 7 LHS will make the short drive over to Trinity High School opening night, playing a Bulldog squad that defeated them 16-7 last season. Adams has known THS coach Alex Mebane for a long time, and is aware of just how difficult his offensive operation is to defend. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This option attack they run is a whole different animal, so the defense is going to need to be disciplined and pay attention to their assignments,â&#x20AC;? said Adams. Ledford will rely on sophomore Duke Boger to be the general under center, who has thoroughly impressed his

â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Chris Adams Ledford head coach coach early on. Junior Dee Greene will line up in the backfield with him, giving the Panthers an experienced leader to help guide him. There is still much for the entire offense to learn, and Adams hopes by conference time they will have it all figured out. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Offensively, we are still trying to get the kids lined up right and trying to figure out what we can do to give our kids the best chance to be successful,â&#x20AC;? he said.

talented student-athletes, and Ty was a very good two-sport prospect in football and baseball. He had an opportunity at Carolina to pursue his education while playing both sports. He was making significant progress in training camp, and I believe he had a bright football future. â&#x20AC;&#x153;After meeting with Arizona over the last few days, Ty and his family felt it was in his best interest to pursue a professional baseball career. We wish him the best of luck.â&#x20AC;? Linton hit .448 with 10 home runs as a senior at Charlotte Christian and also was an all-state linebacker, recording 12 sacks.

UNC lost a linebacker Monday when freshman Ty Linton received a $1.25 million signing bonus for accepting a deal with the Arizona Diamondbacks. Linton, a 6-2, 210 right-handed outfielder from Charlotte, was selected in the 14th round (No. 421 overall) in the Major League draft in June. He was expected to play both football and baseball for the Tar Heels and had spent the past two weeks practicing with the football team. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our football program is disappointed to lose Ty Linton to the Arizona Diamondbacks,â&#x20AC;? UNC coach Butch Davis said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are always going to recruit

The 2011 season will mark Harvickâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tenth full year in NASCARâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top series. In 2001, he earned two victories en route to a ninth-place finish and Rookie of the Year honors. Harvick has 14 Sprint Cup Series wins, 72 top-five and 145 top10 finishes, with major points victories coming in the 2003 Brickyard 400 and 2007 Daytona 500. Since the introduction of the season-ending â&#x20AC;&#x153;Chase for the Sprint Cupâ&#x20AC;? format in 2004, Harvick has made the Chase three times and on two occasions finished a career-high fourth in the final point standings. He is also the two-time and defending champion of the Budweiser Shootout (2009-2010). Harvick currently sits atop the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series standings with three wins, 11 topfive and 16 top-10 finishes, and became the first driver to clinch a spot in the Chase for the Sprint Cup his fourth appearance in five years - following his win at the Carfax 400 at Michigan International Speedway. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Throughout his career, Kevin has shown he can win at any level in NASCAR,â&#x20AC;? said Richard Childress, owner of Richard Childress Racing. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Combining his talent with Budweiserâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s NASCAR lineage and proven track record of innovative sponsorship activations makes this an exciting pairing for fans everywhere.

According to Baranowski, Cox Mill likes to bring some heat on the defensive side, and have a defensive end that could cause them some problems. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They like to play a loose, defensive end that lines up way outside and he is hard to block,â&#x20AC;? said Baranowski. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The way we run, we expect him to come on a lot of plays and we need to be able to block the edges, especially in pass protection.â&#x20AC;?

SPORTS

Keeping body and golf game on par AAOS Golf can be played competitively or just for leisure, and for professional players on the 2010 PGA Tour, the game is probably a combination of both. The game demands skill and physical discipline because improper technique can lead to discomfort, minor injury, or even joint replacement. Whether on the golf course or at the driving range, your swing and technique can make or break a game, and in many cases, help avoid or cause pain. The American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS) recommends that golfers maintain proper form and take it slow when playing golf to avoid injury and to stay on par. • According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), more than 115,000 Americans were treated for golf-related injuries in 2009. • Golfers most often suffer from hand tenderness or numbness; shoulder, back and knee pain; golfer’s elbow; and wrist injuries, such as tendonitis or carpal tunnel syndrome. • Over 360,000 men and women, ages 45 to 64 had a total hip replacement or total knee replacement in 2008, according to the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ). “Golfers — especially beginners, who haven’t learned proper techniques yet — are more susceptible to injuries from overuse and poor mechanics,” said orthopaedic surgeon Alexander Raskin, MD. “It’s important

for golfers to regularly participate in a muscle conditioning program to reduce the risk of common golf injuries.” In an effort to reduce golf injuries, many of which are treated by orthopaedic surgeons, the AAOS recommends the following golf injury-prevention tips: • Dress for comfort and make sure to wear the appropriate golf shoes; short cleats are best on the course. • Do not hunch your neck or shoulders over the ball; it may predispose you to neck strain and rotator cuff tendonitis. • To avoid golfer’s elbow, caused by a strain of the muscles in the inside of the forearm — perform wrist and forearm stretching exercises and try not to overemphasize your wrists when swinging. • To avoid lower back pain caused by a poor swing — try rowing and/ or pull down exercises to improve flexibility and muscle strength. Those who are recovering from a joint replacement should take additional precautions as they transition back into their golf game. “As an orthopaedic surgeon and an avid golfer who underwent a knee replacement three years ago, I have a realistic grasp on the recovery process,” said orthopaedic surgeon Francis Burns Kelly, MD. “People who are trying to get back on the course after a joint replacement must listen to their body if they are experiencing any pain or discomfort. It’s so important for them to ease into the game until they are

back to full strength.” To return to golf after hip or knee replacement, the AAOS suggests the following safety guidelines below: • Always warm up and stretch well before playing, but avoid undue strain on your replaced joint. • Get back into the game slowly. Begin with chipping and putting before hitting irons and then woods. Also, it is best to play just nine holes initially; once this can be done comfortably you can try a full 18. • Use a riding cart initially. Those who like to walk while playing should wait until they can play comfortably with a cart and then try walking. It’s best to use a pull cart rather than carrying your bag. • Be aware of weather conditions; wet weather can predispose you to falls, especially when the legs are still weak. • Use “soft spikes” (required by most courses now) or even tennis shoes (if ground is not wet). This will reduce torque on the hip and knee. • Don’t get frustrated when you resume playing. You may not hit the ball as far as you did prior to surgery because the leg will be weak; this will get better as strength returns. • Be careful about squatting down to line up a putt. This can put too much pressure on the knee and could possibly cause a dislocation of a hip prosthesis. • Continue a regular exercise program to maintain as much strength in the leg as possible.

These Horses Are Wild!

The first horses Millions of years ago, a small fourlegged animal called Hyracotherium (HY-rak-ah-THEER-ee-um) lived in North America. It grew only about 8 inches high, and it had four toes on its front feet, each with its own hoof.

Hyracotherium, the first horse, became extinct about 45 million years ago.

Other types of horses evolved with changing predators and climate. The ancestor of the horses we know, Equus (EHK-wuhs), lived on our continent about 5 million years ago.

This newborn foal and a yearling foal stay close to their Nokota mother. They live in the Theodore Roosevelt National Park in North Dakota. The â&#x20AC;&#x153;wildâ&#x20AC;? horses found in the western states are really feral horses. People sometimes use either word to mean the same type of horse. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re also called mustangs.

Have you ever ridden or petted a horse? The friendly, helpful animals we use to pull wagons and march in parades are called domesticated horses. Along with their cousins, feral (FAIR-uhl) horses, they have a long history in the Americas. This week, The Mini Page talked with experts to learn more about wild horses.

from The Mini Page ÂŠ 2010 Universal Uclick

Thank the Spaniards Experts think Equus may have moved to Asia and Europe by crossing a land bridge in the Bering Strait*. For a long while, there were no horses at all in North America. Just about 500 years ago, Spanish explorers brought horses back to the Americas. These horses had been domesticated, but some escaped and began to live in the wild. They were the ancestors of todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s feral horses. *The Bering Strait is a small sea passage between Alaska and Russia. Archaeologists believe the two continents were connected before the last Ice Age.

Most of the feral horses in the West are found in Nevada. These are the horses we call mustangs. In the East, Chincoteague ponies live on Assateague Island off the COAST OF 6IRGINIA AND -ARYLAND Banker horses live on the Outer Banks of North Carolina. Because these horses are surrounded by salt water, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll sometimes dig holes to reach fresh water for drinking.

Some of the feral horse herds are privately owned, such as the Chincoteague ponies. Others are protected by the National Park Service or state government agencies where they live.

These mustangs run on rangeland in Utah. Wild horses have very few natural predators, or animals that hunt them. 'ATHERING and removing some of the horses is a way for officials to control their effect on the land.

FROM PAGE 1 PATH From page 1 moving along in the right direction.” One of the key elements to reviving uptown, Hedgpeth said, is improving the lines of communication when it comes to community events. Thomasville Tourism, the Chamber of Commerce and the city often hold events in the downtown area, but just when and where sometimes gets lost in the shuffle. Uptown Thomasville, Inc. plans on getting event organizers on the same page with local businesses and store owners so more people are aware when there is something to do around Main Street. “Tourism, the city and the chamber all plan events, but we haven’t gotten around to where everyone is knowing what’s going on,” said Hedgpeth. “Some stores may want to be open for some of these events, especially the ones at night. There was one event happening recently that I didn’t find out about until that day so I couldn’t plan on being open. We want to change that.” Hedgpeth feels an important piece to reviving the area is bringing in WiFi Internet access, and the orgainzation is working with City Hall to make it a reality. “It’s amazing how many people come to a downtown that has WiFi,” Hedgpeth said. “It doubles the amount of people.” Nancy Higgins-Horne, secretary-treasurer for Uptown Thomasville, Inc., said recent improvements like the “Move More” walking trail and the new amphitheater at PACE Park are great ways to

bring people to the area, but more can still be done to showcase local businesses. Higgins-Horne said local real estate agents are receiving inquires regarding vacant store buildings and City Hall is putting forth an effort to freshen up old store fronts. “One of things that is beneficial to Thomasville is that the city is so great to work with as far as people coming into town,” Higgins-Horne said. “We’re located on Highway 109 and we’re right in the center of Interstate 85 and Business 85. It has the potential to get a lot of visitors through the area, we just have to market ourselves to be able to show what we have to offer everyone. One of our missions is to communicate with everyone about what’s going on.” Some of the organization’s plans include a “Showcase of Uptown Businesses” section to run in local newspapers and a “Walk of Chairs” where stores will purchase a chair to place on Main Street. Decorative chairs will be permanently positioned in several locations around the uptown business district and a map will be provided to visitors who wish to see the area. “Our goal is to get people to walk through downtown and see what businesses are here,” said Higgins-Horne. “There are great places to shop around here. There have been so many issues affecting Thomasville, from furniture issues to economic issues, that we want to have a positive outlook.” For more information on Uptown Thomasville, Inc., call Higgins-Horne at 476-7211.

PROGRAM From page 1

Over the next year, the program intends to provide grants for up to 1,500 farm projects and offer energy efficiency training for 2,400 farmers. The goal — to keep farmers in production, increase profits and decrease input costs. “This was an effort to reach out to farmers,” said Billy Guillet, director of the Agricultural Advancement Consortium (AAC). “A lot of farmers are being hit sideways, just like any other business.” Family Farm Innovation Fund combines USDA’s Office of Rural Development, the North Carolina Farm Bureau, the Rural Advancement Foundation International-USA and N.C. MarketReady, a project of the N.C. Cooperative Extension Service. The state appropriation, totaling $1 million, is administered through the Rural Center’s AAC. N.C. Tobacco Trust Fund Commission matched that $1 million, and the USDA contributed $14 million. The remaining funds come from additional money available in existing programs. “Everybody just did everything they could to draw every dollar from different places,” Guillet said. Each branch of the program approaches farmers’ plight a little differently. Two grants focus on energy efficiency. Guillet says that projects such as installing an electric irrigation pump as opposed

to a diesel would qualify. “This is with the idea of one being good stewards and being kind of green,” he said. “The main twist in it is if we can put more energy efficient practices on the farm, that cuts the input costs for the farmer which will put more money in his pocket.” Another grant seeks to encourage farmers to develop methods to increase the market value of various products. For example, a farmer that sells potatoes could slice and peel a few or make potato fries to sell for more money. The final two grants look at other market and revenue options. “Our Agricultural Advancement Consortium is constantly looking for ways to improve profitability of farms in North Carolina,” said Garnet Bass, communications director for the N.C. Rural Economic Development Center. “Statewide, we’re looking to improve the economy and increase jobs. These were programs that were already on the ground, and with a little bit of money we could really push through.” And many farmers certainly need the help. While Dr. Blake Brown, an agricultural economic specialist with MarketReady, says that the sector hardest hit by the recession is landscape and horticultural plant farmers that are tied to the tumbling housing industry, local small-scale farmers have seen dips in sales. “Sales were lower than last year,” said Vera Parker who owns Parker Farms in Thomasville

with her husband. “The one thing that hurt us more than anything this year is Piedmont Triad Farmers Market went up on the space rent, on top of the recession and the drought. We’ve had to pass that on to our customers.” And most farmers haven’t had much respite from the past drought, especially given this summer’s extreme heat. According to North Carolina Drought Management Council, North Carolina was in a constant state of drought from May 2007 to December 2008, with extreme drought status from September 2007 to March 2008. “They’ve got hit sideways, a double-whammy,” Guillet said. “They had a bad couple years of the drought. They finally started to get their feet under them and come out of that, and then here we go right into the recession. It’s been a tough last five years for farmers.” Irrigation gets some farmers by for a time, but not all participate in the practice, and even those who do can’t replace natural precipitation. “We irrigate, but even when you irrigate it doesn’t work as well as rain,” said Joan Wright of Flower House Farm in Thomasville. Though Wright said she hasn’t been terribly affected by the recession herself, given the small size of her flower cutting business, she added but others may still benefit from the grants. “Hopefully that will be a lead that we can use,” Wright said. “Not so much for me, but for others.”

NORTH CAROLINA DAVIDSON COUNTY

A Thomasville teen-ager was charged with common law robbery Tuesday for allegedly shoving a 79-year-old woman into bushes and taking her wallet. According to a Thomasville Police Department press release, Zachary Lee Rhodes, 19, of 45237 Valley Circle, was charged with common law robbery and assault on a female for allegedly shoving a 79-year-old woman into some bushes and taking her wallet as she was leaving the Public Library at 14 Randolph

St. Tuesday afternoon at 3:39 p.m. The victim was treated at the scene by EMS workers for minor injuries. TPD Patrol Division set up a perimeter at the scene and conducted a track with a K-9 officer that ended approximately 10 yards from 20 Cramer St. Detectives gathered evidence from the residence and obtained information from witnesses that led to Rhodes’ arrest. He was taken to the Davidson County Jail and issued a $25,000 secured bond. Rhodes is scheduled to appear in court on Oct. 1.

MARILYN TAYLOR Business Columnist

Oh Yeah — it’s close alright. Just travel a few miles down I-85 and head toward Friendly Shopping Center in Greensboro. You can spot it from Wendover Avenue. The Proximity is in very close proximity to Davidson County — yet as you get closer — you feel miles away. It’s that cool, sophisticated, and GREEN. This series features the work of Hollender and Breen as they lead the charge to new levels of social responsibility through Seventh Generation and The Responsibility Revolution. We’ve included a blueprint for businesses to consider, which offers points like: The mission matters Dare to wear the see-through Bring consumers inside Those can be translated to be who you say you are, be transparent, and be open. All of these points are wrapped around the central message that business needs to start asking different questions. As Hollender posits: If we ask, “What can we do to build market share?” We will get a very different answer and a different future than if we asked “What can we do to build a more sustainable economy?” Dennis Quaintance, CEO of the Proximity Hotel in Greensboro, NC clearly asked the latter. A proponent of sustainable practices, Quaintance put his money where his dreams were as his hotel and restaurant came into being. In 1997, The Proximity Hotel earned the first platinum certification given by LEEDS (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design), and is considered one of the greenest hotels in America. Their website hosts a variety of articles, video clips and interviews revealing company philosophy and practices. Check out their story at www.proximityhotel.com On the consumer side, it has been my pleasure to experience the hotel on several occasions and failed to suffer any deficiencies. Quite the contrary. We enjoyed the gorgeous surroundings, amazing art (thanks, Chip!), improbable amenities, and impeccable taste. Did I mention comfort? Water and room temperatures suited us to a tee and the furnishings were as comfortable as they were tasteful. In short, we were sold.
