2018 saw more flooding and more rebuilding An angry crowd in Pender County met Gov. Roy Cooper on Dec. 13 when he came to tour damage from the hurricane two months ago By Donna King North State Journal WASHINGTON — In September of 2018, Hurricane Florence made history as it came ashore in Wilmington, cutting off the port city for weeks and leading to frustration,

food lines and fear. But the damage from the historic storm went beyond the well-known city of Wilmington, hitting small towns across the eastern part of the state. Now, more than two months later, Gov. Roy Cooper visited one of those towns on Dec. 13 and was met by an angry crowd who said that the state and FEMA seemed to have forgotten about them once the television crews were gone after the storm. “It’s good the governor is here in the Whitestocking community in Pender County,” Pender County NAACP President Dante Murphy

told WWAY-TV. “But at the end of the day, a whole lot of romance without finance. I just don’t get it.” Cooper reportedly tried to reassure the crowd that help was still on the way, but for some who’ve been homeless since the storm, promises aren’t opening the doors. Danielle Rees of Washington, said floodwaters rose about 15 inches into her home when Florence drenched the tidewater city on the Pamlico River and overwhelmed a local creek and marshland. The first floor was a sopping mess of gritty, swampy water in three bedrooms, a bathroom and a laundry room. “It’s part of living close to the river, and Washington is really low land,” said Rees, a graphic designer who grew up in the city. But she anticipates her See FLOODING, page A2

Last Salute: Nation bids goodbye to President George H.W. Bush in 2018 High praise, cannons and humor honor the late 41st President of the United States By Calvin Woodward, Laurie Kellman, and Ashraf Khalil The Associated Press WASHINGTON, D.C. — Toward the end of 2018, the nation bid goodbye to former President George H.W. Bush with high praise, cannon salutes and gentle humor, celebrating the life of the Texan who embraced a lifetime of service in Washington and was the last president to fight for the U.S. in wartime. Three former presidents looked on at Washington National Cathedral as a fourth — George W. Bush — eulogized his dad as “the bright-

est of a thousand points of light.” After three days of remembrance in the capital city, the Air Force plane with Bush’s casket left for a final service in Houston and burial at his family plot on the presidential library grounds at Texas A&M University in College Station. His final resting place is alongside Barbara Bush, his wife of 73 years, and Robin Bush, the daughter who died of leukemia at age 3. In Texas, a motorcade carried Bush’s remains to the family church, St. Martin’s Episcopal, along a closed interstate, where hundreds of people in stopped cars on the other side of the road took pictures and shot cell phone video. One driver of a tanker truck climbed atop the hulking vehicle for a better view, and at least 15 firefighters scaled a pair of stopped firetrucks to salute. Upon its arrival at the church,

Bush’s casket was met by a military band and Houston Democratic Mayor Sylvester Turner. The national funeral service at the cathedral was a tribute to a president, a patriarch and a faded political era that prized military service and public responsibility. It was laced with indirect comparisons to President Donald Trump but was not consumed by them, as speakers focused on Bush’s public life and character — with plenty of cracks about his goofy side, too. “He was a man of such great humility,” said Alan Simpson, a former Republican senator from Wyoming. Those who travel “the high road of humility in Washington, D.C.,” he added pointedly, “are not bothered by heavy traffic.” Trump sat with his wife, a See BUSH, page A2

What does it take to build a gingerbread Biltmore replica? These amazing creations are on display for the 26th Annual National Gingerbread House Competition at The Omni Grove Park Inn through January 4, 2019 By Bruce Steele Asheville Citizen-Times via the Associated Press ASHEVILLE, N.C. — Here’s what you’ll need to make a gingerbread model of Biltmore House: gingerbread, of course. Royal icing. Homemade vanilla wafers. Silver luster. Modeling chocolate. Gold dust. And a little vodka. The biggest challenge? Not surprisingly, the roof, says Deerpark pastry chef Julie Scheibel, who led her 10-person team on the sixweek project to create the gingerbread house now on display in the Biltmore House kitchen. “The roof took about a week, solid, with at least one person working on it eight hours a day,” Scheibel said. It’s a laborious process that begins with baking hand-crafted vanilla wafers. The cooled cookies are then sliced in half with a serrated knife before being adhered, one by one, to the roof with a sugary mortar mixture. Oh, and each tasty tile is hand-dusted with silver luster, a fine-grained culinary powder used to add pizzazz to baked goods. Or gingerbread houses. Unlike the creations at the Grove Park Inn, which have to be edible through and through, the Biltmore gingerbread is so large

it needs a wooden skeleton. So a reusable framework was created some years ago by the estate’s engineering team, precisely scaling down the dimensions of the actual building. The skeleton is affixed to a wooden platform. Once the inner frame is cleaned up and ready to go, the construction order isn’t that different from building a real house: walls first, then roof (starting at the bottom and moving upward), lights, decorations. The walls are all actual gingerbread, minus the leavening, baked a little longer than you would your cookies. “I just try to make sure it’s super sturdy,” Scheibel says, “since it’s going to be here for about two months.” Most of the roof was constructed by Scheibel and pastry cook Deron Noel. “He did the majority of the work this year,” Scheibel says. “The two of us did the roof together. He installed the little LED lights that you see. And he did most of the decorations.” Some of Noel’s work on the house involved sitting at a computer, printing photos of Biltmore House to determine how to shape and where to place the doors and windows, and looking up other confectionary creations for ideas See BILTMORE, page A2

“The whole state. The whole story.” RICHARD NIXON FOUNDATION LIBRARY

On this day, the North Carolina General Assembly enacted the law that created what is now the State Library of North Carolina, to be administered by the Secretary of State. The law called for the collection and safe keeping of books, documents, laws, acts and journals for the use of General Assembly members, state agency heads and Supreme Court justices. In 1831, most of the collection was destroyed in the State Capitol Fire. The new State Library, which included a copy of John Lawson’s History of Carolina donated by former President James Madison, moved into the new State Capitol in 1840 and had a full-time librarian by 1843. In time, it became a lending library for the entire state and participated in national and international book exchanges to enlarge the collection. State Librarian Carrie Broughton was the first female head of a state agency in North Carolina. She expanded the collection, including the genealogy section, now recognized as one of the richest in the Southeast. Still vital after 200 years, the State Library is the official repository for North Carolina government publications; provides information about North Carolina history, culture and demographics; and is a nationally recognized leader in digital initiatives.

BUSH from page A1 trio of ex-presidents and their wives, several of the group sharp critics of his presidency and one of them, Hillary Clinton, his 2016 Democratic foe. Apart from courteous nods and some handshakes, there was little interaction between Trump and the others. George W. Bush broke down briefly at the end of his eulogy while invoking the daughter his parents lost in 1953 and his mother, who died in April. He said he took comfort in knowing “Dad is hugging Robin and holding Mom’s hand again.” The family occupied the White House for a dozen years — the 41st president defeated after one term, the 43rd serving two. Jeb Bush stepped up to try to extend that run but fell short when Trump won the 2016 Republican primaries. The elder Bush was “the last great-soldier statesman,” historian Jon Meacham said in his eulogy, “our shield” in dangerous times. But he took a lighter tone, too, noting that Bush, campaigning in a crowd in a department store, once shook hands with a mannequin. Rather than flushing in embarrassment, he simply quipped, “Never know. Gotta ask.” Meacham recounted how comedian Dana Carvey once said the key to doing an impersonation of Bush was “Mr. Rogers trying to be John Wayne.” None of that would be a sur-

BILTMORE from page A1 on the swirls, dots and dashes of royal icing that are the finishing touches — “to see what looks the nicest,” he said. He would discuss his design ideas with Scheibel and then start piping the house’s white highlights directly onto the walls. The details change year after year, depending on the chefs working on it, so the pastry team would appreciate it if Biltmore visitors could pause a moment in the kitchen to admire all the particulars. Those two lions flanking the front door, for example: That’s where the vodka comes in. Schiebel hand-sculpted the lions from modeling chocolate. “It’s just chocolate and corn syrup,” she says. “You melt down your chocolate and add corn syrup and it makes it like modeling clay” when it cools. “And then it dries hard.” Once hardened, the lions were painted with gold — the real stuff. “It’s gold dust mixed with vodka,” she notes.

prise to Bush. Meacham had read his eulogy to him, said Bush spokesman Jim McGrath, and Bush responded to it with the crack: “That’s a lot about me, Jon.” The congregation at the cathedral, filled with foreign leaders and diplomats, Americans of high office and others touched by Bush’s life, rose for the arrival of the casket, accompanied by clergy of faiths from around the world. In their row together, Trump and former Presidents Barack Obama, Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton stood with their spouses and all placed their hands over their hearts. Simpson regaled the congregation with stories from his years as Bush’s friend in Washington. More seriously, he recalled that when he went through a rough patch in the political game, Bush conspicuously stood by him against the advice of aides. “You would have wanted him on your side,” he said. Simpson said Bush “loved a good joke — the richer the better. And he threw his head back and gave that great laugh, but he never, ever could remember a punchline. And I mean never.” George W. Bush turned the humor back on the acerbic ex-senator, saying of the late president: “He placed great value on a good joke, so he chose Simpson to speak.” Meacham praised Bush’s call to volunteerism, placing his “1,000 points of light” alongside Abraham Lincoln’s call to honor “the better angels of our nature” in the

While this is Noel’s second time on the team, it’s Schiebel’s first year as team leader, having joined Biltmore more recently. It’s far from her first gingerbread house, however. At her previous gig, at Georgia’s Sea Island resort, she worked on elaborate creations every Christmas, inspired by fantasies that included “Alice in Wonderland,” ‘’Frozen” and Whoville from “How the Grinch Stole Christmas.” Her advice for home cooks determined to make a gingerbread construction, at least one that favors endurance over edibility: Overcook your gingerbread (and leave out the leavening). “And make sure when you’re making your royal icing that it’s really thick. If you don’t start with a really thick product, like paste, then it will never stick fully when you’re gluing your pieces together.” As for transporting the house: It helps if it’s fastened to a solid wooden platform (hidden in its final location with a layer of cotton snow). A team of four drove

American rhetorical canon. Meacham called those lines “companion verses in America’s national hymn.” Trump had mocked “1,000 points of light” last summer at a rally, saying: “What the hell is that? Has anyone ever figured that one out? And it was put out by a Republican, wasn’t it?” Former Canadian Prime Minister Brian Mulroney praised Bush as a strong world leader who helped oversee the end of the Cold War and the collapse of the Soviet Union and helped bring about the North American Free Trade Agreement with Canada and Mexico, signed into law by his successor, Clinton. With Trump, a bitter NAFTA critic, seated in the front row, Mulroney hailed the “largest and richest free trade area in the history of the world.” The three countries have agreed on a revised trade agreement pushed by Trump. Earlier, a military band played “Hail to the Chief” as Bush’s casket was carried down the steps of the U.S. Capitol, where he had lain in state. Family members looked on as servicemen fired off a cannon salute. His hearse was then driven in a motorcade to the cathedral ceremony, slowing in front of the White House, the route lined with people much of the way, bundled in winter hats and taking photos. Bush’s death makes Carter, also 94 but more than 100 days younger, the oldest living ex-president.

the house from Deerpark before dawn the morning after the tree raising in the Banquet Hall, then wheeled it carefully through Biltmore House’s basement to the kitchen, precariously sitting atop the cooks’ equivalent of a library cart. Along with Scheibel and Noel for the delivery were pastry demi chef Megan Moorhead and pastry cook Kayla Breedlove, and they had the house set up and surrounded by snow within just 20 minutes of their arrival. They were assisted by members of Biltmore’s floral team and supervised by Lizzie Borchers, Biltmore’s floral manager, the person in charge of all the estate’s decorations. “I love it,” Borchers says of this year’s gingerbread house. She’s especially happy with Schiebel’s addition of tiny LED lights along the roof line, since illumination “is something we’ve been oomphing up this year” throughout the estate. The gingerbread house provides a touch of Christmas in the kitchen, where the addition

FLOODING from page A1 $2,000-a-year policy through the taxpayer-subsidized National Flood Insurance Program will help her rebuild the home about a quarter-mile from the river, just as it did in 2011 after Hurricane Irene — and as it did, under previous ownership, after floods in 1996, 1998 and 1999, according to her property history provided by the Federal Emergency Management Agency. The program has done something similar, over and over, for others. Records at FEMA, which operates the program, show that nearly 37,000 properties from the Carolinas to California have repeatedly flooded and been rebuilt — some dozens of times — with help from a federal insurance program that is, itself, financially underwater. About 18,000 of those are currently covered by policies, and 15,000 of those haven’t taken voluntary steps to reduce the risk of future damage to their property, FEMA said recently. The National Flood Insurance Program was $20 billion in the red before the start of the current hurricane season, even after Congress last year wrote off an additional $16 billion. The program must be reauthorized by Congress this month. The repeatedly flooded properties cost nearly $7.4 billion in claims before the start of the current hurricane season. Rees’ home isn’t included on the official “severe repetitive loss” list

of other Christmas decorations wouldn’t make much sense. “We’re not going to put a tree down here or deck it out,” Borchers says. “The style and what fits down here and in the servants’ rooms, the servants’ dining room, should be different from what you see upstairs. It should reflect the space.” Within the home’s historical context, as it would have appeared at Christmas when occupied by the Vanderbilt family, Borchers imagines the gingerbread house sits in the kitchen “being worked on by the staff before it goes up to the Banquet Hall, maybe for a party.” Borchers says this year’s gingerbread house is “different from anything we’ve done before. It’s kind of great to see how many different ways we can make a gingerbread house out of Biltmore.” Don’t believe her? Lead decorator Noel has simple advice for those passing through the kitchen and encountering his work. Pause long enough to make sure you “don’t miss a thing.”

because the 1996 and 1998 hurricanes didn’t cause damage exceeding $5,000. It takes at least four of those $5,000-plus occurrences to put properties on the list. With more than 5 million policies, the nation’s main source of flood insurance generated $4.3 billion in annual premiums in 2016 and paid claims of at least $3.7 billion, the Congressional Budget Office reported last year. The median cost of a year of residential coverage was $520 that year. With more than 3.8 million households altogether, N.C. has only about 134,000 flood insurance policies. The state has 1,132 structures from Carolina Beach to Charlotte on the “severe repetitive loss” list. Eighty-two percent of the flooded properties that have been bailed out repeatedly are single-family homes. Those homes were worth an average of $115,000 but have incurred $150,000 in damage claims, he said. “Many people that find themselves in a situation of living in a repeatedly flooded house would like nothing more than to never file another flood insurance damage claim ever again. But the only assistance that’s readily available to them after a flood is to rebuild if they have flood insurance. So, they’re kind of trapped,” said Rob Moore, water and climate director at the Natural Resources Defense Council. The Associated Press contributed to this report.

NC named Forbes “Best State for Business” again Approved Logos

RALEIGH – A last bit of cheer to close out the year: for the second year in a row, North Carolina holds the No. 1 spot on Forbes magazine’s Best States for Business ranking. North Carolina has been the only state to consistently place among the top five states for 13 straight years since Forbes began issuing the annual Best States for Business list. In an article announcing the 2018 list, Forbes says North Carolina’s labor, energy and tax costs are all well below the national average and rank as the second lowest in the U.S. overall. And North Carolina’s 3 percent corporate tax rate, scheduled to drop to 2.5 percent in 2019, is the lowest in the nation. The state also has a highly educated labor supply, graduating from 53 colleges and universities including Tier 1 research universities Duke, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and North Carolina State. Also citing the Tarheel state’s verynear deals with both Amazon and Apple this year, Forbes is bullish about more opportunities ahead. The state’s economic outlook is strong, Forbes says, noting that growth in both jobs and gross state product is expected to be among the strongest in the country over the next five years. In addition, North Carolina’s population is growing at twice the U.S. average.

Make these 2 tax moves in time to cut your tax bill By Tim Orem NerdWallet SAVING FOR RETIREMENT is a good idea, of course, but if you time things right and do your homework, some of your nest egg could also do double duty as a tax shield. Here are two simple savings maneuvers that tax pros say could also lower your tax bill — if you make them in time. Maneuver 1: Dump money into a 401(K) If your employer offers a 401(k) plan and you’re not enrolled or not contributing much, you could be paying more than you have to in taxes. Why? The IRS doesn’t make you pay income tax now on earnings that go directly from your paycheck to a traditional 401(k) plan (typically you pay the taxes when you withdraw the money). In 2018, the contribution limit for a traditional 401(k) is $18,500 ($24,500 if you’re 50 or older), meaning you could potentially shield that much of your pay from income taxes this year. If your employer matches your contributions, you might also get some free money. When to make your move Get that money into your 401(k) plan by Dec. 31, says Angela Freyman, a tax preparer at Freyman CPA in St. Johns, Florida. Visit your 401(k) administrator’s website, or contact your company’s payroll or HR department, to increase your contributions for the end of the year if you can. “Some employers might move slower, so I would always say do it as early as you can. Don’t wait until the last minute, because you might ask them to set it up, but they won’t do it in time,” she says.

Freelancers with no employees might think about contributing to what’s called a solo 401(k), which could allow them to save for retirement and shield as much as $55,000 from income taxes (with an additional $6,000 catch-up contribution if 50 or older). There may be more time, too — if you put money into the account by the 2019 filing deadline, you might still get a tax break for 2018. Just be sure the account is open by Dec. 31, Freyman notes. Talk with a qualified tax pro about the details. Beware Make sure your traditional 401(k) contributions don’t exceed that $18,500 limit for 2018 ($24,500 if you’re 50 or older), cautions Chad Parks, who runs Ubiquity Retirement & Savings in San Francisco. Your pay stub should indicate what’s been withheld to date for the year. People who contributed to more than one 401(k) plan in 2018 (this might happen if you changed jobs during the year) need to keep a special eye on this, because the sum of their contributions to both plans can’t exceed the annual limit, Parks warns. “Don’t think you can double dip,” he says. Maneuver 2: Transfer money into an IRA Moving money into a traditional individual retirement account could keep the IRS’s hands off of up to another $5,500 of your money this year ($6,500 for people 50 and older). That’s because contributions to traditional IRAs can be tax-deductible . The size of your deduction will depend on your filing status, whether you or your spouse is covered by a retirement plan at work and what your

“Some employers might move slower, so I would always say do it as early as you can. Don’t wait until the last minute, because you might ask them to set it up, but they won’t do it in time.” Angela Freeman, tax preparer on when to transfer funds to a 401(k) plan

adjusted gross income is. When to make your move If you want to turn your savings into a tax break for 2018, make sure your money is in the account no later than April 15, 2019, Freyman says. Opening an IRA shouldn’t take long, she adds. “We have people do it in a couple of days, at most,” she says. Beware If you want a tax deduction for 2018 but you’re not actually putting the money in your traditional IRA until after Dec. 31, be sure to instruct the IRA administrator to apply your contribution to 2018. And remember to take the tax deduction for 2018. “It’s easy to accidentally apply it to the wrong year,” Freyman notes. Another note: Traditional IRAs are great, but a Roth IRA may be a better choice if you’re in a lower tax bracket now than you think you’ll be in the future. You may not get a tax break now with a Roth IRA, but your withdrawals later should be tax-free. Talk with a qualified tax pro if you’re not sure.

State Economic Tiers

Eight years of Republican supermajority brought major changes to NC After lacking significant power in the state since 1800s, GOP used opportunity to remake state By David Larson North State Journal

Since 2007 North Carolina has used a three-tier system for designating economic development status. The N.C. Department of Commerce annually ranks the state’s 100 counties based on economic well-being and assigns each a tier designation. The designations, which are mandated by state law, are incorporated into certain state programs to encourage economic activity. Tier 1 counties are the most distressed and Tier 3 is the least distressed. The Department of Commerce recently released new tier designations and twenty-eight counties will change tiers in 2019

A5

from their 2018 rankings. Counties moving to a less distressed tier ranking include Alleghany, Ashe, Camden, Cherokee, Clay, Jackson, Macon, McDowell, Montgomery, Person, Yadkin, and Yancey (from Tier 1 to Tier 2); and Currituck and Davie (from Tier 2 to Tier 3). Counties moving to a more distressed tier ranking include Beaufort, Cleveland, Cumberland, Duplin, Hoke, Nash, Rockingham, Rutherford, Sampson, Surry, Wayne, and Wilson (from Tier 2 to Tier 1); and Carteret and Granville (from Tier 3 to Tier 2).

New legislators join the N.C. General Assembly in 2019 In the 2018 elections, North Carolina voters cast nearly four million ballots with a voter turnout of 52 percent. Voters returned Republicans to the majority in the North Carolina legislature but this time without their veto-proof majority. Republicans in the Senate were one seat shy of retaining that veto-proof majority with 29 Republicans and 21 Democrats. In the House, the new split is 65 Republicans to 55 Democrats. Voters also passed four amendments to the state constitution and rejected two others. The amendments passed provided extra protections for victims of violent crime, created a cap on the state income tax, codified the right to hunt and fish, and passed a measure requiring voters be required to show an ID when casting a ballot. When the legislature passed bi-partisan legislation detailing how that mandate (passed with 55 percent voter support) would be implemented, Gov. Roy Cooper, a Democrat, vetoed it. “Requiring photo IDs for in-person voting is a solution in search of a problem,” Cooper said in a veto statement. “We are disappointed that Gov. Cooper chose to ignore the will of the people and reject a commonsense election integrity measure that is common in most states, but the North Carolina House will override his veto as soon as possible,” House Speaker Tim Moore said. Moore has already been elected to serve again at the helm of the N.C. House. Turnover, whether by retirement or defeat, was more common in the Piedmont and eastern part of the state, with western North Carolina retaining more of its representation. The new members to be sworn into the North Carolina General Assembly on Jan. 1, 2019 include:

RALEIGH — The North Carolina Republican Party, despite retaining majorities in both chambers of the state legislature, have lost their supermajorities after 2018’s elections. Before 2010’s sweep by the N.C. GOP, the party had not controlled both chambers since Reconstruction. This eight-year period, from 2011 when the Republican supermajorities were sworn in to 2019 when the next class of legislators will take their seats, was marked by major changes in how the state was run — changes that Republicans are proud of and that Democrats view as an extreme departure from the way they led the state for the previous century. When Republicans took control in 2011, North Carolina, like the entire country, was dealing with the aftermath of the financial crisis and resulting Great Recession. North Carolina was hit especially hard, with double-digit unemployment rates through all of 2010. The state government had frozen teacher pay, accumulated $2.7 billion in debt on unemployment insurance to the federal government, had state budget deficits over $2.5 billion, allowed Medicaid shortfalls of more than $2 billion, and created tax rates for both individuals and corporations that Republicans believe were driving away business and stifling growth. “It was amazing, the way we found it and the condition of the state economically,” said former Rep. Mike Hager (R-Rutherford) to the North State Journal. Hager was elected in 2010 when the GOP took over and later became House majority leader. “Opening the books on what the Democrats had been up to for the last century was a whole lot worse than I think anyone could have imagined.” Because the Republicans had not had a chance to control the state since the 1800s, there were elements of virtually every area of governance that party leaders wanted to remake. Hager said it was an exciting time to be present as these discussions were taking place on how to reform North Carolina’s government. “It was like starting from a clean sheet of paper in a lot of areas, creating something that was uniquely ours,” Hager told the NSJ. “It was very entrepreneurial, like starting a new business. And I have to brag on now-Sen. (Thom) Tillis — as our House speaker at that time, he was a fantastic leader.” On the other side of the aisle though, Democrats were seeing much of what they had fought for over the past century being undone.

After losing the Executive Mansion in the 2012 elections, the left was feeling even more locked out of the halls of power, and in April of 2013, a large protest movement — called Moral Mondays — was formed to channel much of this frustration. As Republicans reformed tax rates, made budgets that cut funding for Democratic priorities and applied their conservative principles to hotbutton cultural issues, the protests grew and arrests were common at the state legislative complex. Among the largest controversies during this period was House Bill 2, a 2016 House bill that largely intended to undo a sexual orientation and gender identity-focused ordinance passed by the Charlotte City Council. Proponents asserted that as a “Dillon’s Rule” state, municipalities were only permitted to regulate things that the state government had given them jurisdiction over, and responsibility over discrimination law had not been transferred from the state to the local authorities. A nationwide boycott was then organized by LGBT groups, and major companies and figures began to announce their opposition to the bill and their unwillingness to do business in North Carolina until it was repealed. The controversy was largely pacified after a compromise bill was passed in 2017 that was sold as returning the state to the precontroversy status quo. Republicans look at this period from the beginning of 2011 to the end of 2018 as a time when major positive changes were made that set the state on a path toward economic growth and fiscal stability. A recent series of press releases by legislative leadership, titled “N.C. Success Story,” contains a long list of what they point to as proof of their positive impact. The list includes individual income tax rates going from 7.75 percent to 5.25 percent; corporate income tax rates dropping from 6.9 percent to 2.5 percent; billions in budget deficits that have been turned to a $400 million budget surplus; teachers having received five straight pay raises adding up to 19 percent on average; North Carolina’s place at or near the top of lists of economic growth, opportunity and fiscal health; the Medicaid shortfall being turned into a surplus of more than $2 billion; and the unemployment insurance debt having been paid back in full with a $3.1 billion reserve now in its place. Democrats frame these years differently, saying, for example, that the teacher raises were not nearly what they should have been. They also argue the budget cuts and tax decreases have not come without harm to the state’s most needy. The new N.C. legislature, still containing a Republican majority in both chambers despite the loss of their supermajorities, will be sworn in January of 2019.

Pulling young Americans back from the brink

A recent study showed that 1 out of 5 Americans under the age of 37 do not think Americans should be proud of their history.

DURING THE 2016 campaign, Hillary Clinton often delivered the line: “America is great, because she is good.” It was a feel-good line, deployed then as code for “America is too good to elect Donald Trump.” Notwithstanding the thick irony of Clinton claiming to be the virtuous alternative, her statement on its own terms made sense: If a nation would be great, it must be morally upright — and America, despite all its flaws, is fundamentally good. This view puts Clinton increasingly on the fringes within her own movement. In 2018, the prophets of wokeness are calling progressives to “wake up” to the reality that America, at its core, is racist, misogynistic, homophobic, transphobic and economically unjust. The system, they say, is “rigged.” And today’s young adults are heeding those voices and increasingly embracing their viewpoint. A recent study showed that 20 percent Americans under the age of 37 do not think Americans should be proud of their history. One out of five millennial Americans see the flag as a sign of intolerance and hatred, and two-fifths said it’s OK to burn the flag. Clinton’s generation, the baby boomers, were most likely to say America has been, is, and will continue to be great, with 70 percent saying so. But only half of Americans under the age of 37 agreed, and a full 14 percent of millennials said America was never a great country to begin with, and never will be. The survey, which was conducted by the polling firm YouGov and commissioned by the Foundation for Liberty and American Greatness, a nonprofit devoted to restoring civics, showed that it’s not just younger Americans who have a dim view of our nation. Fifty percent of respondents across all age groups said America is sexist, and 49 percent said it is racist. The survey does give some reason for hope. Americans across the board remain patriotic in a general sense, and that includes millennials and Generation Z. But the data do show a clear fault line: Young people are more likely to be skeptical and critical of America than their parents and grandparents. This is a growing divide not just between the left and the right, but between the old left and new left. In a recent op-ed, New York Times columnist David Brooks put it this way: “The older liberals are appalled by President Trump, alarmed by global warming, disgusted by widening income inequality, and so on, but are more likely to believe the structures of society are basically sound. You can make change by voting for the right candidates and passing the right laws. You can change individual minds through education and debate. “The militants are more likely to believe that the system itself is rotten and needs to be torn down. We live in a rape culture, with systemic racism and systems of oppression inextricably tied to our institutions. We live in a capitalist society, a neoliberal system of exploitation. A person’s ideology is determined by his or her status in the power structure.” This divide within the left is real, and it will inevitably impact the nation as a whole if things don’t change.

Clinton is 71 years old. Her views, though certainly liberal, reflect a strong confidence in the goodness of America and our system of government that is common among her generation. Younger Americans increasingly part with that view — and we shouldn’t be surprised given what is increasingly taught in schools. Students are taught to “see through” inherited institutions and ways of doing things, and to view society in terms of an ongoing struggle between oppressor and oppressed. This oppressor-oppressed lens doesn’t make much room for the way we’ve traditionally conceived of America. In a world where there are only oppressors and oppressed, there can be no free men and women, no genuine liberty, no real self-government and no common good. There are only people seeking raw power according to their self-interest. Such a one-dimensional outlook would leave anyone cynical about America, even life itself. And it has done just that. Many students have become disillusioned about our society and our system of government, even pushed to despair. And despair turns them into revolutionaries ready to dismantle the system. Of course, there is much to reject about “the system,” if by system we mean everything coming from Washington, D.C. Conservatives are quick to decry crony capitalism, the growth of the sprawling administrative state, and the misuse of power by life-appointed judges. But these are corruptions that have grown up around the system, not integral defects within the Founders’ design. Our actual system of representative government, codified by the Constitution, remains fundamentally good. It is a testament to our forebears who slowly wrung liberty from the hands of autocratic rulers — a process dating all the way back to Magna Carta in 1215. What younger Americans on the left need to appreciate is that our Constitution and political traditions are essential for achieving even their own liberal vision of justice. This system has secured a host of gains that liberals often take for granted, from the abolition of slavery to the enfranchisement of women and the civil rights movement. Each of these hard-won advances was achieved through our system of representative government, and to this day they are preserved by the rule of law. By design, our system makes it very difficult to change the law, but equally difficult to undo changes from the past. It turns out “the system” is actually your friend if you care about preserving past achievements. This means every American who seeks to change policy — whether liberal or conservative — must take on the mindset of a reformer, not a radical. Before we even enter the policy arena, we must settle it in our minds that the system we are partaking in — the exquisite structure of republican government handed down from centuries past — is not up for debate. This American project is an achievement of human civilization, and though it may fall short at times, it’s the best shot at justice we have. We tear it down at our own peril.

GUEST OPINION | MICHAEL BARONE

American fertility headed to all-time low

Welfare states assume an expanding population, and America’s potential parents don’t seem to be providing one anymore.

IN 1957, 4.3 million babies were born in the United States. In 2017, 60 years later, the number was 3,853,472. That’s an 11 percent decline in a nation whose population has nearly doubled over those six decades. And though there are a few days left in 2018, the number for this year is sure to be lower. That’s the dominant finding from the thorough — and alarming — report “Declining Fertility in America” by Lyman Stone of the American Enterprise Institute and the Institute for Family Studies. In recent years, demographic journalists have focused on slivers of the population — the increasing percentages of Hispanics and Asians, the decline in births to teenage mothers, low birth rates in high-cost coastal metropolitan areas. Stone looks at the larger picture, that of total population, and finds that “the specter of low fertility, and ultimately of declining population, has come to America.” That’s a different picture from that of a decade ago. Then American birthrates hovered around, and sometimes just over, replacement level. That was a vivid contrast with substantially belowreplacement-level birthrates in most of Europe and Japan. Those birthrates were buoyed upward by immigrant mothers, after a quarter century of mass migration from Latin America, especially Mexico. But Mexican migration fell toward zero in the 2007-09 recession, and births to immigrants in the U.S. sharply declined, too. Some Americans, including many Donald Trump fans, find that good news. It suggests that a lower percentage of babies are born to mothers in disadvantaged households. And just about everyone, as Stone notes, takes the continuing sharp decline in births to teenage mothers as good news, too, considering that such children have tended to suffer negative outcomes. But the negative outcomes of increasing infertility and eventual population decline have even greater implications. To put it bluntly: Who is going to pay for Social Security and Medicare when there are fewer working-age adults paying taxes for every oldster receiving benefits? Welfare states assume an expanding population, and America’s potential parents don’t seem to be providing one anymore. Why? Stone rules out one cause: Surveys show that women want more children than they’re having. That was probably not the case, or less so, when American’s fertility rate dropped this low in the middle 1970s. The culprit this time is something that scarcely existed then: college student loans. The top

A7

item on Stone’s list of five causes is “increased young adult debt service costs due to student loans.” Number two is “decreasing young adult homeownership” due to higher prices and — here it is again — “student loans.” Number three is “increasing years spent actively enrolled in educational institutions, which tends to reduce birth rates dramatically.” Government efforts to encourage higher education have backfired for many intended beneficiaries. Nongraduates still have debt. Graduates with politically correct degrees can’t find jobs. College costs have been inflated by administrative bloat and country club campuses. “(T)he entire educational complex is presently structured in such a way as to discourage family formation for young adults,” Stone says. The result is “delayed marriage.” This “changed marital composition explains the vast majority of changes in American fertility over the past 10 or 20 years,” Stone writes. And though he doesn’t mention it, the increasing number of non-college whites who never marry surely explains some of the rest. What are policymakers doing to respond to this abrupt demographic challenge? Approximately nothing. Stone notes that the Congressional Budget Office, the Social Security Administration and Medicare’s actuaries have not “even published stress-test scenarios of long-term fertility at 1.5 or 1.6” — just below the current 1.7 — “an incredible collective failure of foresight by almost all the economic bodies whose job it is to anticipate this kind of problem.” House Speaker Paul Ryan, the one politician who has worked strenuously to address such problems and at one point got all his Republican colleagues to go along with entitlement reform, has just delivered his farewell speech. House Republicans will be in the minority next month, and with no appetite for taking up the issue again, especially since President Donald Trump has promised to leave entitlements entirely in place and no significant number of Democratic officeholders seeks to give up what they consider one of their party’s chief political advantages. It’s quite a contrast with the late 1990s, when American fertility was higher and Bill Clinton and Newt Gingrich were working on entitlement reform until the Monica Lewinsky scandal broke. Just another reminder that history is not always a story of progress.

Migrant girl dies, media pounce ONE OF THE REASONS people decry the “fakeness” of the news is the selectivity of which heart-rending anecdotes are “news” and which are not — unless they can be blamed on undesirable politicians. On Dec. 13, The Washington Post published an online story headlined “7-year-old migrant girl taken into Border Patrol custody dies of dehydration, exhaustion.” The reader’s immediate assumption: She died at the hands of the Border Patrol. Reporters Nick Miroff and Robert Moore quickly declared, “The child’s death is likely to intensify scrutiny of detention conditions at Border Patrol stations and CBP” — Customs and Border Protection — “facilities that are increasingly overwhelmed by large numbers of families seeking asylum in the United States.” The reader’s assumption only increases. In this case, it was a group of 163 migrants, 50 of them unaccompanied minors. The Post also jumped to quote the American Civil Liberties Union, which decried a “lack of accountability, and a culture of cruelty within CBP.” MSNBC then used “Culture of Cruelty” as a tag for its “news” programming. Time magazine — which earlier this year published a wildly misleading cover image of an immigrant child who the magazine implied was separated from her mother (“fake news”) — went back to the well with the headline “A 7-year-old immigrant girl died after she was detained by border patrol.” What reader won’t wish damnation for the Border Patrol people at this point? There’s more. Rolling Stone’s Jamil Smith tweeted: “She had been detained for about eight hours when she began having seizures. Revived from a cardiac arrest, then died about 24 hours later. Elections have consequences.” Shaun King of The Intercept added, “Shame on our country and shame on Donald Trump.” “Comedian” Wanda Sykes spewed about race, tweeting: “Evil. I wonder how many 7-year-olds from Europe, Russia, UK ... have died while in Border Patrol custody.” Fake News Time.

Anything goes in the continuing assault against President Trump and his policies, most especially where the left’s top-shelf issues, immigration and abortion, are concerned.

COLUMN | BEN SHAPIRO

The left’s war on parenting

If you choose to send your child to a nonapproved yeshiva, you must be policed and your child threatened with truancy

LAST MONTH, the New York State Education Department made a crucial decision: Commissioner MaryEllen Elia handed authority to local school boards to veto the right for private schools to operate. Those school boards must now determine whether private schools provide an education “substantially equivalent to that received in district public schools.” According to Jewish educators Elya Brudny and Yisroel Reisman, “The state government now requires private schools to offer a specific set of classes more comprehensive than what students in public schools must learn.” This isn’t a problem for Jewish schools alone — Catholic schools in New York have bucked the legislation, with James Cultrara, executive secretary of the New York Council of Catholic School Superintendents, explaining, “We simply cannot accept a competing school having authority over whether our schools can operate.” Now there’s a case to be made that the state has an interest in children learning basic secular studies, and to that end, Cultrara has called for an objective standard for evaluating whether or not schools are properly educating their students. That case is far stronger in a welfare state, in which insufficient education often ends with the public bearing the brunt of such failures. But there’s also a case to be made that parents are the best sources for judging which educational standards their children should obtain — and that attempting to force-feed education to unwilling students and parents at threat of legal peril is a massive imposition on freedom. It’s also unlikely that a broadly applied standard of education will succeed in raising standards across the board. The public school system hasn’t been able to achieve that even absent religious conflicts. More fascinating than this debate, however, is the

generalized attitude toward parenting expressed by the social left. If you choose to send your child to a nonapproved yeshiva, you must be policed and your child threatened with truancy. If, however, you are a parent who decides to expose your 11-year-old son to risk of sexual perversion, then you’re open-minded and noble. What else are we to take from the story of Desmond Napoles? Napoles is an 11-year-old boy who dresses in drag for national press, and who was squired — presumably by his parents — to a gay bar in Brooklyn, N.Y., called 3 Dollar Bill, where grown men proceeded to hand dollar bills to him. As writer Matt Walsh has pointed out, were Desmond a girl being paraded by her parents before the leering stares of grown men, child protective services would be called. But since Desmond is a celebrity who has been exploited by his parents, this is all worth celebrating. Which is, perhaps, one of the reasons so many religious parents don’t want the state of New York determining what they should and should not be allowed to teach their children. Religious parents may look at the world created by the social left and say that they want to inculcate in their children an alternative set of values. There may be costs to that. Perhaps there are ways to mitigate those costs. But overall, only one set of parents is being punished for making “educational” decisions by the state of New York — and it’s not the set of parents cross-dressing their pre-pubescent children for fun and cash.

NUMBER OF THE DAY | SCOTT RASMUSSEN

0.4% of America’s workers are paid the federal minimum wage

OF THE NATION’S 137.9 million workers, 80.4 million are paid on an hourly basis. The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) reports that just over half a million of these hourly workers earn just the federal minimum wage. That works out to 0.4 percent of the workforce — one out of every 263 workers. And it’s even lower among full-time workers. Fewer than one out of every 500 Americans with a full-time job are paid the minimum wage. It’s just as rare among workers 25 and older. However, Americans overwhelmingly believe the number is much larger. Eighty-nine percent of

American adults think that more than one out of every 10 workers are paid at the minimum. In reality, a majority of minimum wage workers are 24 and under. Scott Rasmussen’s Number of the Day explores interesting and newsworthy topics at the intersection of culture, politics, and technology and is published by Ballotpedia, the nonprofit, nonpartisan Encyclopedia of American Politics. He addresses these and related issues in his latest book, “The Sun Is Still Rising: Politics Has Failed But America Will Not.”

There’s all this ignored — deliberately ignored — context: The child, Jakelin Caal Maquin, was traveling with her father and reportedly had not had food or water for days. Her father didn’t report her as ill when they were taken into custody. He signed a form saying she was well. He initially told officials in their native Guatemala he was grateful for the medical attention given by the Border Patrol. The truth simply doesn’t matter. Fakery is the shameless order of business in this industry today. Anything goes in the continuing assault against President Trump and his policies, most especially where the left’s top-shelf issues, immigration and abortion, are concerned. The government counted at least 281 people who have died in 2018 while attempting to cross the border, often under harsh desert conditions. The vast majority doesn’t make the news, because there is a better anecdote when the victim is 7 and she was in federal custody. And it is that which must be discussed. To our liberal media, every illegal immigrant is assumed to be a virtuous person and more virtuous than the Border Patrol. The media routinely ignore anecdotal stories of illegal immigrants who kill people, until they can’t ignore them. In the summer of 2015, an illegal immigrant who’d been deported five times shot 32-year-old Kate Steinle in San Francisco. Then-candidate Donald Trump (and Fox News) made that death an issue, which everyone else resisted. The same Washington Post that put this 7-year-old migrant girl in the paper as Democrats made her an issue ignored Steinle in the print edition for months. It’s a safe bet that if Trump hadn’t made an issue of Steinle, the issue would have died with her. The networks covered the story for a few days, but when then-President Barack Obama’s press secretary, Josh Earnest, actually blamed Steinle’s death on Republican obstruction, the networks ignored it. All of this illustrates that “news” from the Old Media is very carefully massaged and managed to achieve maximum political effectiveness for the left. “Don’t Believe the Liberal Media” has long been the conservatives’ tag line. This is yet another reason why. L. Brent Bozell III is the president of the Media Research Center.

Former Tar Heels star Cone lone candidate for USSF vice president Chicago Cindy Parlow Cone, a four-time All-American and two-time Hermann Trophy winner as women’s soccer’s top collegiate player at North Carolina before going on to play for the U.S. Women’s National Team, is the only candidate running to become vice president of the U.S. Soccer Federation. The election takes place Feb. 16 in Scottsdale, Ariz., during the U.S. Soccer Federation’s annual general meeting. The USSF said Thursday she was the only person to complete the nomination process. The position became vacant when Carlos Cordeiro was elevated to president in February, and Cone will serve a one-year term. A full four-year term will be decided in 2020. Cone, 40, won three national titles with the Tar Heels and scored 75 goals in 158 international appearances from 1995-2006, winning two Olympic gold medals and the 1999 Women’s World Cup. She was inducted this year into the U.S. National Soccer Hall of Fame.

Charlotte’s superstar guard has gone from the trade rumor mill to irreplaceable By Shawn Krest North State Journal NINE MINUTES were enough to provide a microcosm of the Charlotte Hornets’ season. Ninety seconds into the second half of a November game, Kemba Walker rolls toward the basket, runs baseline and takes a bounce pass from Cody Zeller, laying it into the basket. Now with the ball, Walker starts at the top of the key, crosses over Landry Shamet and takes one step to his right. Zeller arrives with a screen to prevent Shamet from recovering, and Walker knocks down a 3-pointer. When Jimmy Butler takes his turn guarding him, Walker drives from the right side. By the time the double team arrives, he’s already switched hands and flicked it in off the backboard.

LYNNE SLADKY | AP PHOTOS

Charlotte Hornets guard Kemba Walker has become one of the NBA’s top scorers and the team’s driving force.

Now driving from the left, Walker crosses over, pulls up just inside the free-throw line and fades away, rattling in a jumper. Dribbling around a Zeller

screen, Walker suddenly stops a foot behind the free-throw line and makes an exaggerated shot fake, his arms extending up like Plastic Man. Markelle Fultz falls

for it wholeheartedly, and, as he descends back to earth, embarrassed, Walker drains a floater. Tony Parker corrals a long defensive rebound and heads up court. Walker is already there, accepts the long outlet pass and drains a transition three. There’s a little over a minute and a half left in the third quarter. The Hornets started the stretch trailing by five points. Walkers last shot, his 16th point of the quarter and 39th of the game, put Charlotte up by one. Walker would finish the game with 60 points, most by anyone in the NBA this season, but, in a reminder of the ways things have gone the previous seven seasons, the Hornets would fall just short, losing to the 76ers by three in overtime. All season long, Walker has carried the Hornets, pushing them into Eastern Conference playoff contention by sheer force of will. It’s been a pattern all eight years See KEMBA, page B3

NSJ COLLEGE TEAM OF THE YEAR

Wake Forest dominates men’s tennis The Demon Deacons started and finished the season as the nation’s top team By Brett Friedlander North State Journal IT WASN’T EXACTLY the Grand Slam. But when it comes to men’s college tennis, Wake Forest

won everything worth winning in 2018. The Deacons started the season ranked No. 1 in the nation and finished it the same way, winning the national championship on their own home courts by beating Ohio State 4-2 on May 23. A week later, junior Petros Chrysochos won the school’s first individual title by beating teammate Borna Gojo in the national final. Chrysochos then capped off a dominant year on Nov. 11 by earning a straight-set victory against Southern Cal’s Daniel Cukierman to win the Oracle ITA fall national championships singles title. Those performances are the reason Wake tennis has been chosen as the College Team of the

Year in North Carolina by the staff of the North State Journal. “It feels amazing,” Deacons coach Tony Bresky told Gold Rush magazine after the team competition. “A lot of time, sacrifice and hard work goes into something like this. It is a special group of guys we have. They care so much.” Backed by a standing room only crowd at the Wake Forest Tennis Center, the Deacons (31-2) got off to a strong start in the national championship match against Ohio State with doubles victories from the teams of Gojo and Skander Mansouri, and Chrysochos and Botzer to earn the opening point. The Deacons and Buckeyes split the first four singles matches

completed, with Chrysochos beating Ohio State’s J.J. Wolf 6-1, 6-3 at No. 2 and Mansouri downing John McNally 6-2, 6-2 at No. 3 for the two Wake wins, leaving the outcome hinging on the final two pairings. As Gojo prepared for a tiebreaker looking to extend his match against the Buckeyes’ Mikael Torpegaard at No. 1 to a decisive third set, freshman Bar Botzer — a native of Israel — rallied from 5-2 down in his second set at No. 4 singles to clinch the title.

Harvick and Busch led the series in wins with eight apiece and finished in the top 5 in 23 and 22 of the 36 races, respectively. Truex, the defending champion, had four wins and 20 top-5’s of his own. Furthermore, all three had won titles before. So it was understandable that Team Penske’s Joey Logano was overlooked much of the playoffs, even heading into Homestead as the fourth wheel on what many considered a three-car showdown. But in the end it was Logano hoisting the 68-pound trophy for Mooresville-based Penske — one of several accomplishments that made Team Penske North State Journal’s Pro Team of the Year for 2018. It was a big year at Penske. On May 23, it was announced Roger Penske, the 81-year-old architect of the racing empire, had been elected to be inducted into the NASCAR Hall of Fame in 2019. It was the latest honor for the legendary owner who 20 years earlier was inducted into the International Motorsports Hall of Fame and had won four

IndyCar Series titles and a NASCAR Cup championship in 2012. The team captured its 17th Indianapolis 500 four days later when Will Power won his first race there, becoming the 12th different driver to pilot a Penske car to Victory Lane at the Brickyard. “I’m just so thrilled, 17 wins,” Penske said following the win. “Now I have to worry about 18. I’m not going to look back, I’ll look forward. We have to be back next year.” It turns out Penske had more to accomplish at Indy in 2018. For all the success Team Penske had at Indianapolis, it had never won Cup racing’s Brickyard 400 in 24 tries since the track started hosting the series in 1994. Brad Keselowski — who won Penske its other Cup title back in 2012 — snapped the drought in September by winning at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. That was the 499th for Team Penske, and No. 500 wasn’t far behind. Fifty-two years after the team won the first race it ever entered — the 1966 24 Hours of Daytona — Keselowski got the team’s 500th with his Cup win at Las Vegas. “Reaching 500 wins is really more proof of what racing means to Roger and everyone in the organization,” said Rick Mears, who won four Indianapolis 500’s driving for Penske. “It shows their continued dedication to the sport and how much Roger loves it and it’s still so important to him.” Then came Logano’s upset at Homestead — one few saw coming but the 28-year-old expected. “Honestly, the last six or seven weeks we’ve led a lot more laps, we’ve won a lot of stages, won a race, was fast at Kansas, was fast

at Texas, you know what, I think we’re the favorite now to win,” Logano said ahead of the winner-take-all race, drawing raised eyebrows from his competition and race fans. That race win was at Martinsville, where Logano bumped Truex out of the way on the final lap to clinch a spot in the final four at Homestead — a move the defending champion didn’t appreciate. “He won the battle, but he’s not going to win the damn war,” a heated Truex said following the Martinsville race. “I’m just not going to let him win [the championship]. I’m going to win it.” But at Homestead it was Logano taking the checkered flag to win his first title and Truex finishing second. The win also gave Team Penske its first victory at Homestead. Team Penske has now won at all of the Cup series’ active tracks. The team then capped its season with a Supercars championship by New Zealand’s Scott McLaughlin — Penske’s first title in the series since it took majority control of the former Dick Johnson Racing in 2014. McLaughlin is just the latest driver to become part of the Penske legacy, one that includes Bobby Allison, Rusty Wallace, Ryan Newman, Ryan Blaney, Mario Andretti, three members of the Unser family, Emerson Fittipaldi, Paul Tracy, Helio Castroneves, Sam Hornish and countless others drivers plus all the people behind the scenes. “This is probably the most successful season we’ve had in 52 years, if you can believe it,” Penske said at the NASCAR Cup Series award ceremony in late November. “I’ve been around a long time.” Also Considered: North Carolina Courage

SIXTY-THREE YARDS. One hundred eighty-nine feet. On Oct. 7, Cam Newton found Christian McCaffrey for an 18-yard touchdown early in the fourth quarter that seemed to put away a win over the visiting Giants. New York rallied, however, wiping out the Panthers’ 11-point lead — it had been as much as 14 in the first half — and took a one-point lead with 1:08 left to play. Carolina’s last-minute drive didn’t even make it to midfield, thanks to some odd play-calling. Newton completed two passes in the middle of the field, eating up valuable time and forcing the team to use its final timeout. Then the team called a run play to get a first down and spiked the ball with six seconds left. It appeared the team would have to try a desperation throw as time expired. The Hail Mary would come not from Newton’s arm, however, but from the leg of a 31-year-old 202-pounder from Florida State. Kicker Graham Gano took the field and calmly knocked down a 63-yard game winning field goal with room to spare. Sixty-three yards. A 28th of a mile. He became the sixth kicker to connect from that far out and set the record for longest boot to win a game. Gano topped his previous career best by four yards, kicked the longest field goal in the NFL in nearly five years and tied for the second-longest field goal of all time. Sixty-three yards. For 15 years at the start of the 20th century, the Independence Building — generally considered Charlotte’s first skyscraper — was the tallest building in the city. It’s height? Sixty-two yards. The kick set off a wild on-field celebration as Gano was mobbed by teammates. “I just tried to run away from everybody so I didn’t get jumped on,” Gano said. “That was madness. That’s the only word I can use to explain it. … I was going nuts.” Quarterback Cam Newton, who always makes sure to tap his kicker’s helmet after a successful field goal or point after, couldn’t reach Gano in the throng. “I tried,” he said, “but a melee broke out.” Sixty-three yards. Nearly 19 stories. In addition to be the NSJ Play of the Year, Gano’s kick was a high point for the Carolina Panthers’ season. The team saw a 6-2 start to the year disintegrate with a long losing streak and injuries to Newton and, yes Gano, who was put on injured reserve after missing several kicks during the losing streak. But for one day in October, he was the hero. The moment will keep him in the record books for years to come. “A wise man once told me, a quarterback is only as good as his kicker,” Newton said. Sixty-three yards. It would take Usain Bolt more than 5½ seconds to run that far, Michael Phelps more than 33 seconds to swim it. Gano kicked from the left hash, and the ball hooked, passing through the goal posts just inside the right upright. According to Pythagoras, that means the ball actually traveled longer than 63 yards, by about 11 inches. It took 2¾ seconds to cover the distance, for a speed of just over 58 mph. That’s 2 mph faster than Cam Newton’s fastest throw, as timed by ESPN’s Sports Science back when he was in college. “Graham put the whole team on his back today,” Newton said. “Well, on his toe.” Also Considered: Wake Forest backup quarterback Jamie Newman’s game-winning touchdown with 30 seconds left for an upset win at NC State; NC State wrestler Michael Macciavello two-point takedown with 14 seconds left to erase a one-point deficit and win the NCAA title at 197 pounds.

NSJ NEWCOMER OF THE YEAR

Marvin Bagley was both the ACC Player and Freshman of the Year in his one season with the Blue Devils.

Bagley fulfilled his promise at Duke The one-and-done Duke superstar was NSJ’s expected newcomer of the year, and he lived up to title By Shawn Krest North State Journal AT THE END of last year, we predicted that Marvin Bagley III would be the 2018 Newcomer of the Year. Now, looking at the prediction, the first reaction is, “Really? That seems so long ago!” Bagley hasn’t played around these parts since early March, but he packed enough performance into those first three months that we’re willing to stand by our prediction and name Bagley the North State Journal’s 2018 Newcomer of the Year. The Duke big man had a head start on the title when the calendar flipped to 2018. He was already 14 games into his freshman season and averaging 21.9 points and 11.6 rebounds. Bagley’s production didn’t slow much once he started playing the

ACC schedule. He finished his freshman campaign with 21.0 and 11.1 averages. He also set the conference record for most 30-point, 10-rebound games. In addition to that, Bagley set the Duke single-season record for dunks and the freshman marks for points, rebounds and just about every other significant statistical category. Many of the records shattered the previous mark. His 98 dunks were 34 more than the previous record. His 22 doubledoubles broke the old mark by eight, and his 22 games with 10 rebounds were seven more than the old record. Bagley did all that while missing four games with an injury. Bagley won the ACC rookie and player of the year and was a consensus first-team All American. The numbers barely scratched the surface when discussing Bagley’s dominance, however. He was an overwhelming presence on the offensive end of the floor and a must-watch presence for even casual fans. As predicted from the day

he announced he was headed to Duke, Bagley went one-anddone, declaring for the NBA Draft following the season. He was selected second overall by Sacramento. His impact in the pros wasn’t as immediate and dominating as his splash into college, mostly because Sacramento insisted on bringing him along slowly, doling out playing time sparingly and letting him find his legs. But he’s rounding into shape. “The game is starting to slow down very well for me. I’m starting to see a lot more things that I didn’t see the first couple games,” Bagley told CBSSports.com, “just by being more patient and just waiting for things to happen and looking around and seeing the

floor. I think I was rushing a lot of things in the beginning of the season. … I was anxious. When I just started calming down a little bit and just playing basketball, I think that’s when it started slowing down. And it’s slowing down every game I’m out there.” Bagley has had four doubledoubles since mid-November, including a 20-point, 17-rebound outing against Golden State. “He’s doing great things, with the ball and without,” Kings coach Dave Joerger said. “He continues to grow, and I’m certainly comfortable having him on the floor at the end.” Bagley is averaging 12.7 points, 6.1 rebounds and 1.0 blocks per game while shooting 53.6 percent from the field and 34.6 percent

from three. “He does what he does. He’s active,” Joerger said. “He wants to learn and he wants to do well and he wants to win. Those are fun guys to coach.” Paired with second-year Kings guard De’Aaron Fox, Bagley has Joerger thinking of Kevin Durant, to go with Fox’s Russell Westbrook, as the Kings are playing over .500 one year after going 27-55 to “earn” the chance to select Bagley. His progress will have to wait until after the new year, however. Bagley suffered a bone bruise in his knee two weekends ago and will miss about two weeks. Also Considered: Duke forward Wendell Carter Jr.; NC State coach Kevin Keatts; and Panthers wide receiver D.J. Moore.


North State Journal for Wednesday, December 26, 2018 NSJ COACH OF THE YEAR

Satterfield parlays App State success into Louisville job After four seasons of unprecedented FBS success, the Mountaineers’ coach left for the ACC By Brett Friedlander North State Journal APPALACHIAN STATE was the preseason favorite to win the Sun Belt Conference’s East Division and play in the league’s first-ever postseason championship game. So in that respect, the Mountaineers lived up to their expectations in 2018. But as Duke basketball coach Mike Krzyzewski likes to say, a season isn’t about the destination, it’s all about the journey. And oh, what a journey it was for App State on the way to its third straight league title. The Mountaineers started the season by taking Penn State to overtime. Then, with a new quarterback playing in place of a record-setting four-year starter, App State ascended into the national polls for the first time in school history. They overcame a season-ending injury to their leading rusher, rebounded from a disheartening

nationally televised loss in which quarterback Zac Thomas suffered a concussion and still ended up winning 10 games and the division. It’s a performance that not only helped coach Scott Satterfield get a new, higher-profile job — he was hired by Louisville shortly after the Mountaineers beat Louisiana-Lafayette in the first Sun Belt Championship Game — but also earned him recognition from the staff of the North State Journal as the state’s Coach of the Year. “We faced adversity just like another good football team does throughout a season, but these guys just continued to rally each and every week,” Satterfield said following the Louisiana-Lafayette game. “It’s hard to win. It’s hard to win championships. These guys right here, they fight each and every day to try to make it happen. “That’s why that we’ve been able to have so much success over the last four seasons. It’s hard to beat a team that plays for each other like we do.” Satterfield learned that philosophy from his own former App State coach Jerry Moore, for whom he played quarterback from 1989-91. As a senior, he led the Mountaineers to an undefeated regular sea-

son and the quarterfinals of what is now known as the FCS playoffs. The 45-year-old Hillsborough native then cut his coaching teeth as an assistant to Moore during his alma mater’s run of three straight FCS national championships before taking over the program upon his mentor’s retirement in 2013. Satterfield proved to be the right man at the right time when the Mountaineers made the transition to FBS status. Their 41 wins in the

four years since — including four straight bowl victories — are the most victories of any Group of Five program during that stretch. And yet despite all that, Satterfield is reluctant to take credit for his program’s success. “It’s a reflection of our players and staff. That’s the bottom line,” he said. “I’m not one to want to be in the spotlight. I don’t like that. I want all our players to get recognized and our coaches.

B3 “This is a team sport and we have 115 guys in our locker room, and if we all work as one, a lot of guys are going to get recognized. We’ve been one of the most consistent programs in the country over the last four years, and it speaks volumes to this senior class and what they’ve been able to do for our program.” As much as he tried to downplay it, Satterfield’s contribution to that success didn’t go unnoticed by schools with more prominent programs. His name was mentioned in connection with job openings at North Carolina and Georgia Tech this year before he finally took the job at Louisville and a contract that pays him $3.69 million over the next three seasons. “It’s what dreams are made of for me,” Satterfield said at his introductory press conference “It proves the point that if you work your tail off and have a great attitude every single day, your dreams can be met and they will come true, because I’m living those dreams at the University of Louisville.” Also Considered: NC State football coach Dave Doeren; UNC baseball coach Mike Fox and women’s soccer coach Anson Dorrance; coach Paul Riley of the NWSL champion N.C. Courage; and Murphy High School football coach David Gentry.

Looking Back Wake Forest football coach Dave Clawson was the NSJ staff’s prediction for 2018 Coach of the Year, but injuries ravaged the Demon Deacons. Still, Clawson’s team scrapped to win two of its last three games to become bowl eligible for the third straight year.

NSJ COMEBACK OF THE YEAR

Brown comes home to fix Tar Heels football Twenty-one years after he left UNC for Texas, the coach is back in Chapel Hill to rebuild North Carolina By Brett Friedlander North State Journal BACK IN 1997, Mack Brown helped design the new coach’s office at North Carolina’s Kenan Football Center. He provided all the personal touches, including a fish tank provided by his wife, Sally. By the time it was ready to be occupied, Brown had left Chapel Hill for Texas. The fish tank is gone now, having been relocated long ago to the Ronald McDonald House in another part of campus. But after nearly two decades away from Chapel Hill, Brown is finally getting the opportunity to move into his office. The 67-year-old Hall of Famer made a triumphant return to UNC on Nov. 27 when he was hired to replace Larry Fedora less than a week after the Tar Heels stumbled to their second straight nine-loss season. It was a surprise move that has earned Brown recognition from the North State Journal staff as the Comeback of the Year in North

Carolina for 2018. “This is the only place that we would have gotten back into coaching to do, because the place is so special to us,” Brown said of himself and his wife. “We love challenges and with this opportunity that the trustees, and the chancellor, and (athletic director Bubba Cunningham) have given us, it gives us an opportunity to fix things, and we love to fix things.” Brown’s motivation to return to coaching in general — he’s been an ESPN analyst for the past five years — and Chapel Hill in particular is more than just professional. It’s also personal. Not only was he not-so-gently nudged out the door at Texas, where his results had begun to fall off after leading the Longhorns to the national championship in 2005, but he still has regrets about the way his first tenure at UNC ended. Brown had just completed his second straight 10-win season and had the Tar Heels ranked among the nation’s top 10 when he abruptly boarded a plane and headed for Texas — just one day after telling a recruit and the media that he planned to be at UNC for the long haul. “I owe this place a whole lot,” he

said. “That’s why I want to come back and do my part.” Brown is off to a rousing start. On Wednesday, after just three weeks on the job, the once and future Tar Heels coach managed to sign an 18-man recruiting class that includes quarterback Sam Howell, who originally committed to Florida State. Eleven of those players decided to come to UNC after the coaching change. “Mack has a charisma, an attitude and a great reputation,” Cunningham said. “He’s turned programs around, been successful everywhere he’s been, and I think he’ll be great. He’s coming in unencumbered, and he’s really excited to get going. ... Mack is the most positive, enthusiastic coach I’ve met.” His charm was on full display at an introductory press conference that felt more like a pep rally and class reunion than the start of a new era/old era of Tar Heel football. He professed his love for UNC and Chapel Hill, told tales of glory from long, long ago, schmoozed with former players in the audience and generally became a one-man hype machine. At one point during the festivities, Brown called out to one of his

first Tar Heels, linebacker Dwight Hollier, and asked him if he remembered the inspirational speech he gave the team when he was first hired in 1988. Hollier replied that he did and that “it was really cool.” “Well, you’ll need to tell me,” Brown replied, “because I want this to be cool again.” It’s going to take more than just a good speech to make UNC football “cool again,” especially since history has not been kind to coaches returning to the scene of their past success. Johnny Majors won a national championship by going 12-0 at Pittsburgh before leaving for the greener pastures of Tennessee. Sixteen years later, after being pushed into “retirement” by the Vols, he made a triumphant return to Pitt — only to win just 12 games over the next four years combined. John Robinson also claimed a national title the first time he was at Southern Cal in 1978 before heading to the NFL’s Los Angeles Rams, only to finish at or barely above .500 in the final two seasons of his return to the Trojans a decade later. Despite those and other examples, Cunningham decided to buck history and go Mack to the future.

hockey in 2002, ’03 and ’04, and men’s soccer in 2007. “This means everything to me,” senior team member Christian Seraphim told Gold Rush. “The beauty of it is that it’s college tennis. It’s a team effort. We share it. Every point matters out there. We have some great guys that always deliver.” Wake continued to deliver into the individual phase of the NCAA championships with both Chrysochos and Gojo advancing through the bracket to become only the fourth teammates — and first since 1998 — to be matched against one another in the men’s singles final. Chrysochos and Gojo are just the second and third players in program history to reach the finals of the singles championship, joining Noah Rubin who did so in 2015. Chrysochos took an early advantage against his fellow Deacon, jumping out to a 2-0 lead. It would be a lead the native of Larnaca, Cyprus, would not relinquish en route to a 6-3 victory in the opening set. Midway through the second set, Chrysochos broke Gojo, who’s from Croatia, before picking a second break later in the match. The junior served out the 6-3 second-set victory before the two embraced at the net. “You saw at the end I didn’t celebrate,” Chrysochos said. “I

of his career, but this season, unlike the others, his will might just be strong enough to finish the job. Walker is scoring 24.9 points per game, the highest of his career, as are his 4.5 rebounds. More critical to Charlotte’s success, his 6.3 assists per night are also a career high. While Walker has moments of heroism as he takes the final step into NBA superstardom, he’s also involving his teammates. In a December win over Detroit, he scored a game-high 31, but it was his pass to Jeremy Lamb — his game-high ninth assist — that provided the game-winner. “He’s doing it more and more,” coach James Borrego said. “The ball is moving. He sees two guys, he’s kicking it. He trusts his teammates. That’s when we’re at our best. … Kemba understands that. He’s growing in that area.” Walker’s breakthrough season comes one year after he was rumored to be on the trading block. With the team in transition, cases were being made that dealing the franchise’s all-time scoring leader might be the fastest way to get pieces for a rebuild. Instead, the Hornets have doubled down on their best player. “He wants to build a winner here,” Borrego said in a TV interview. Kemba Walker might be the most important building block in that process, which makes him

didn’t need to because the biggest accomplishment was walking on that court with my teammate, my friend. I didn’t care which one of us won. It was a team effort that got us both there. “Most of the time, when you make it to a final, it is an individual accomplishment, but I felt like Borna helped me get to this point. It was a huge advantage to play this tournament at home and we made the best of it.” Also Considered: UNC baseball; UNC field hockey; Appalachian State football; and the NC State swim team.

Looking Back Last year’s prediction of Duke basketball as the NSJ’s 2018 Team of the Year fell a little short. The Blue Devils, led by one-and-done freshman Marvin Bagley, came close to fulfilling their promise by advancing to the NCAA tournament’s Elite Eight. But Grayson Allen’s potential game-winner against Kansas rimmed out at the end of regulation and the Jayhawks went on to win in overtime, denying Duke a trip to the Final Four and a shot at the national championship.

Mack Brown came out of retirement to return to Chapel Hill, calling the Tar Heels job the only one he would have taken.

His reasoning was that “Mack is unique and the University of North Carolina is unique.” Brown also referred to “the fit” while asserting that he has “made it everywhere we’ve been,” saying that “we know how to win, how to make it work.” Also Considered: Wake Forest wide receiver Greg Dortch

Looking Back Brown is in a position to be the Comeback of the Year only because the NSJ’s prediction of the entire UNC football team for the award in 2018 came up way short.

Instead, Hines decided to enter the NFL Draft, where he was selected in the fourth round by the Indianapolis Colts. As a rookie, he’s shown the same versatility that made him such a game-breaking threat with the Pack. He’s gained more than 300 yards each rushing and receiving.

A journey through 2018’s top pop culture moments By Jocelyn Noveck The Associated Press

March

IF YOU WANTED A BREAK from the wall-to-wall politics that dominated 2018, there was a royal wedding with something for everyone, some groundbreaking movies, the return of Mary Poppins and Harry Potter, a goodbye to some favorite celebrities, a tale of two coats that were more than just coats, and more. Join us on a highly selective chronological journey through a year in pop culture.

Speaking of Oscar, it’s that time, and we’re still talking about #MeToo, not to mention “Time’s Up!” Appearing on stage to mark the moment is a powerful trio of Harvey Weinstein’s accusers: Ashley Judd, Annabella Sciorra, and Salma Hayek. And when Frances McDormand says she has “some things to say,” people listen: The best actress winner asks all the women nominees in the room to stand, and instructs Hollywood to tell their stories.

January

April

The first awards shows reflect a changed Hollywood, only a few months after the #MeToo movement engulfed the industry. At the Golden Globes, the red carpet becomes a sea of glittering black gowns in solidarity with victims of sexual misconduct, and Oprah Winfrey gives a barn-burner of a speech, looking to a day “when nobody ever has to say ‘Me Too’ again!” At the Grammys, stars don white roses, and singer Kesha dedicates a tearful performance of “Praying” to the #MeToo movement.

Times are changing at the Pulitzers, too, where rapper Kendrick Lamar wins the music prize for “DAMN.” He’s the first rapper to win the prestigious laurel and the first winner who’s not a classical or jazz musician. In film, director John Krasinski energizes the horror genre with the creepy, silent “A Quiet Place,” also starring wife Emily Blunt. On Broadway, the enduring magic of Harry Potter is conjured with the hit London transplant, “Harry Potter and the Cursed Child.”

February Welcome to Wakanda. The latest Marvel hero to jump off the page into his own movie is the “Black Panther,” and Ryan Coogler’s film is universally acclaimed. “Show them who we are,” goes a line from the film, an appropriate pre-Oscar chant for Coogler and a starry cast including Chadwick Boseman, Michael B. Jordan, Lupita Nyong’o and a slew of others. Ten months later the film will be nominated for a Golden Globe, beginning its awards journey.

May Let’s say “Do Svidaniya” to our favorite Soviet spy couple as “The Americans” ends its six-season run on FX with an elegant, surprising and moving series finale. At the annual glittery Met Gala, the theme is “Fashion and the Catholic Imagination ,” and imaginations are running rampant — we’re talking about you, Katy Perry and your giant angel wings! But perhaps the most memorable fashion statement comes when the very American Meghan Markle weds the very British Prince Harry in a refresh-

ingly unadorned white gown. A gospel choir sings “Stand By Me,” and an American bishop, Michael Curry, almost steals the show with a spirited improvisational sermon before saying: “We gotta get y’all married!” Also this month, “This Is America” by Childish Gambino, aka multi-talented Donald Glover (also having a big year with “Atlanta”) opens at No. 1 on the Billboard chart, accompanied by a viral video of nonstop dancing punctuated by shocking scenes of shootings. And goodbye, “Roseanne” — the show’s reboot is canceled following her racist tweet. June What was she thinking? Melania Trump doesn’t say, but the writing on her Zara jacket has everyone talking. “I don’t really care. Do U ?” reads the garment worn by the first lady on parts of her trip to visit detained migrant children in Texas. Four months later she’ll explain it was “for the people and for the leftwing media who are criticizing me.” In music, Jay-Z and Beyonce continue to exert their unique influence with a surprise joint album, “Everything is Love.” On a sad note, two admired celebrities are mourned after taking their own lives: global culinary chronicler Anthony Bourdain and colorful it-bag designer Kate Spade.

CBS says it has grounds to fire him for cause, concluding he violated company policy and was uncooperative with an investigation — a claim Moonves’ attorney denies. August Farewell to the Queen of Soul: Aretha Franklin’s death sparks worldwide mourning, and the singer is hailed not only for her talent — the greatest of a generation — but her lifelong demand for “Respect,” as a woman and an African-American. She is eulogized in an epic eight-hour funeral. Another longtime great, Paul McCartney, does carpool karaoke with James Corden, and their visit to McCartney’s hometown of Liverpool that has many fans crying sweet tears of nostalgia. September “Believe in something, even if it means sacrificing everything,” says a new Nike ad that makes waves because of the man speaking the lines: Colin Kaepernick, the former San Francisco quarterback who began a wave of protests among NFL players against police brutality and racial inequality. At the Emmys, the awards themselves are upstaged by a surprise marriage proposal. And happy birthday, Harry Potter! Wow, you’re 20 years old.

October

Last year, it was Weinstein. This year, it’s Les Moonves, one of the most powerful men in television. Reporter Ronan Farrow breaks the explosive story of sexual misconduct on the part of the CBS chief executive; in September, with accusations escalating, Moonves will step down. And at year’s end he’ll lose his $120 million severance when

Usually Donald Trump has the spotlight in the Oval Office, but apparently not when Kanye West visits. The rapper, ostensibly there to discuss prison reform, delivers a 10-minute speech about the president, politics and, of course, himself. “You are tasting a fine wine,” he says, referring to, er, his truly. “It has multiple notes to it.” Onscreen,

the ultimate chameleon, Lady Gaga, reinvents herself yet again with a stunning turn in Bradley Cooper’s acclaimed “A Star Is Born. “ And some fine-art news: The elusive Banksy pulls a stunt for the ages with his self-shredding painting at a Sotheby’s auction. But was that him in the audience? Maybe. November Three broken ribs might sideline a football player, but Ruth Bader Ginsburg? Nah. Days after her injury from a fall, the 85-year-old Supreme Court justice is back on the job, capping a year in which she’s emerged as a true pop culture heroine. Already in the spotlight for “RBG,” the documentary in which she’s shown doing push-ups among other things, she’s also the subject of a popular SNL rap video, and by year’s end a new feature film, “On the Basis of Sex.” Oh, and she’s back at the gym, too. December Wanna be the new Oscar host? They’re hiring! (Unless you’d prefer to be Trump’s chief of staff.) Kevin Hart is forced to step down — two days after being named — when past homophobic tweets are aired. And remember all the talk over the first lady’s Zara coat? Now it’s Nancy Pelosi’s Max Mara coat we’re discussing, a fiery orange-red number that she wears — with Armani shades — emerging from a tense showdown with the president. The fashion label immediately reissues the discontinued “Fire Coat.” And speaking of hot (or cool) overcoats: A stylish new Mary Poppins is on the block, thanks to Blunt, who proves a worthy successor to Julie Andrews in the Disney sequel. At the end of a tough year, it feels nice to indulge with just a spoonful of sugar.
