TINKERING ON A TRIKE
Spencer to revisit staggered terms Voters may get second chance to approve board term limits B Y E MILY F ORD eford@salisburypost.com
SPENCER — Spencer aldermen will consider giving voters another chance to approve staggered terms for members of the town board. The Board of Aldermen will hold its regular monthly meeting at 7 p.m. Tuesday in Town Hall. Voters rejected staggered terms in 2004, the last time the measure appeared on the ballot. The referendum lost by 64 votes with 1,252 ballots cast. Currently, every Spencer town board seat comes open every two years. Maintaining this structure gives residents the chance to vote out every member at once if they are unhappy with the board. Staggered terms would ensure continuity on the board. Advocates say this offers more stability in town government. Board members at their January retreat asked staff to prepare a summary of a proposed referendum, cost and timeline. The referendum would cost nothing if it runs with a municipal election. During an offyear election, printing special ballots for the referendum would cost about $750. Also Tuesday night, the board will: • Discuss the expected 8 percent decrease in tax base, as estimated by the Rowan County Tax Assessor’s Office. According to the county, Spencer’s tax base will fall from $211 million to $194 million in the next fiscal year, which begins July 1. Town staff are preparing a proposed budget for fiscal year 2011-12.

Garvie White built his 2008 model trike out of a 1973 VW Beetle rear end and a motorcycle front end.

anyway,” he says. White recently took three years to build a custom-made, threewheeled motorcycle. The back half is a 1973 Volkswagen Beetle; the front half, mostly a Yamaha 750. Last summer, White sometimes drove the “trike” through his Salisbury neighborhood at The Crescent. He also steered it into town on occasion, but the last time he operated the motorcycle it started missing and MARK blew out oil. WINEKA So White, a retired pipe-fitter, built a trailer for the motorcycle so he can haul it up to a Volkswagen repair shop in Arcadia. He anticipates that the shop will have to rebuild the VW motor. Next on White’s agenda is to shorten the bed of a 1986 Nissan truck and make it a convertible. Once he moves the motorcycle and trailer out of the garage, he’ll have room to ease the Nissan truck in. But overall White needs more space. The home he shares at The Crescent with Jo Barth, whom he met dancing about five years ago, comes with a lot of neighborhood re-

strictions. He would like to move into the country, where his number of vehicles would not be limited and he could have more room for a shop than one corner of a garage. “He likes to be doing something all the time,” Barth says. White’s daddy was a bootlegger in the N.C. foothills, so his family had to keep moving a lot, finally ending up in Maryland. White joined the National Guard in 1939, was shipped to England in 1942 during World War II and stormed Omaha Beach on D-Day. After the war, he worked for more than 30 years as a pipe-fitter in Delaware. When he retired, White moved back to his native North Carolina and settled in Davidson County. About five years ago, he met Barth at some country dancing
spots, and a romance and friendship blossomed. “She loved to dance, still does,” White says. Sometimes Barth rides with him on the VW motorcycle. “I’ve rode one all my life,” White says. As he aged, White lost some of the balance he needed to ride twowheelers, so a trike made sense. “This one here is no problem,” he says, walking around his creation in the garage. “And this was the cheapest way to go, to build one.” White figures he has $3,000 to $4,000 invested in the vehicle. He first considered building a sidecar for Barth but changed his plans after spotting a similar trike to what he eventually created. “There are a lot of these on the

The Salisbury Police Department granted Officer Ian’s biggest wish Wednesday as Ian and his family met Salisbury Police Chief Rory Collins and other officers and were given a tour of the department. Sunday night Ian was in the intensive care unit at Duke University Medical Center, with one partially collapsed lung and one fully collapsed lung and is in a lot of pain, his mother Angela said. “He’s okay, he’s just tired,” Angela said. “His little body has been through so much. “They said this type of surgery is just about the most painful you can ever have.” Friday’s surgery was to replace hardware in Ian’s spine, which is twisting and growing to the side.

Rowan-Cabarrus Community College finishes strategic plan for 2011-2014 BY SARAH CAMPBELL scampbell@salisburypost.com
Several months of meetings between Rowan-Cabarrus Community College officials and leaders from local businesses, municipalities and a variety of community groups has culminated in the college’s 2011-14 strategic plan. Board of trustees member Clyde Higgs said the plan, which focuses on preparing HIGGS students for 21st century careers and cultivating a strong community partnership, is very forward thinking. “They are obviously not just look-

ing at their status today, but how they can be effective three years from now,” he said. “Sometimes I think organizations tend to focus on what’s ailing them right now as opposed to how to position themselves for success in the future.” RCCC President Carol Spalding touts the plan’s goal to increase completion rates as a key component as the college prepares for the future. “The college will use many resources SPALDING to help students finish their education in preparation for the workforce or transfer,” she said. Higgs said the initiative to get more students to earn degrees, diplo-

mas and certifications caught his attention. “I was intrigued by it because there are so many people across the nation who have started college and didn’t finish,” he said. “This is a new concept of the community college being a place to help piece those courses together.” Spalding said the plan also focuses on “sustainable futures” by enhancing current programs and developing new ones to prepare stu- KING dents for both existing and emerging careers.

as the effects of health care reform unfold within the industry she’s glad to know the hospital has a strong ally in the college. “Dr. Spalding has been very proactive in partnering with us to understand what we’re going to need in moving forward in the next couple of years,” said. Higgs, vice president of business development for the N.C. Research Campus, said the plan’s goal to serve as a catalyst for community advancement was also appealing. “(The college) is a community asset,” he said. “And the idea of positioning it as a preferred partner for business and industry really resonated with me.” Contact reporter Sarah Campbell at 704-797-7683.

YESTERDAY: Hollywood comes to town Veteran character actor Jason Robards, left, spoke with British director Mike Hodges during this break in filming outside the Salisbury depot in December 1988. Robards was playing the alcoholic father of actress Rosanna Arquette in “Black Rainbow,” a thriller about a psychic (Arquette) who could communicate with the dead. Robards was in town for a day. Most of the shooting for “Black Rainbow” took place in Charlotte. The $6 million movie skipped American theaters and went straight to video stores in 1992. Several local people were cast as extras, but many of them did not make the final cut. Familiar Salisbury landmarks shown in “Black Rainbow” included St. John’s Lutheran Church and the depot, before it was restored. Robards won Academy Awards for his work in “All the President’s Men” and “Julia.” He died Dec. 26, 2000, at the age of 78. This photo is from the Post’s files.

One thing we know for sure is that everyone has stress in their life. And if you are trying to eliminate it, you are for sure going to be stressed to the max! Of course, most of you have heard that exercise helps you deal with stress. It releases endorphins, it helps to lower your blood pressure and cholesterol. It can make you feel less anxious. Tests have shown that exercise causes a decrease in electrical activity of tensed muscles. People have been less hyper and tense after an exercise session (and I can definitely vouch for that!) • Exercise can relax you. About an ESTER hour of exercise MARSH can give you 90 to 120 minutes of relaxation response. Part of the reason is the endorphins and part, the neurotransmitters. What we know is that they make you feel good after exercise, improving your mood and leaving you feeling relaxed. • Exercise can also make you feel better about yourself. Even when you don’t want to exercise because you feel tired or had a stressful day at work, if you do exercise, you will feel great afterwards. If you have not tried it, take a chance and see how you feel. • Exercise can also help you eat better. Many studies have shown that people who exercise make better choices when eating. And, of course, a nutritious diet will help you feel better and help you manage your stress better. Aerobic activity, yoga-type exer-
cises and recreational sports are things which can get you started to help you feel better. Personally, I am really good about exercising, eating a balanced high fiber diet and I manage my stress pretty well. Lately, it has been very busy with all kinds of wonderful things such as the Spina-thon, preparing for the Buck Hurley Triathlon (which is on May 1), lots of new classes, sports programs, etc. One thing that I am not good about is drinking water. I get busy and, due to hypoglycemia (low blood sugar), my body tells me when to eat, but I don’t have (or can ignore) signs of dehydration. Last week, I had a night to remember. I thought my insides were ready to explode and was in fear of appendicitis. By 2 a.m., the tremendous pain subsided. This was the third time this happened in six months and I asked my gynecologist and dear friend, Dr. Jesse Blumenthal, for advice. She had me in the next morning and made sure my female reproductive system was not causing this. She knows I can deal with pain very well and was worried that it could be something serious. A CAT scan was ordered. It showed I was full of it (I know, most of you know that already). Severe constipation … what? OK, I didn’t “go” for two days, but constipation? Can it cause that much pain and agony? I was diagnosed with spastic colon a long time ago, but those “flare-ups” were not even close to what I have been experiencing. I didn’t realize that spastic colon and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) are the same. IBS sufferers say it can be so severe that it actually lands them in the hospital sometimes.
Well, I exercise, eat pretty well and can manage my stress, but I found I miss one very important asset: hydration. I don’t hydrate nearly enough. I can go forever without drinking anything. I try to be decent about it (found out that my “good days” are not even close to being good). But the busier I am, the less I think about it. That’s disaster for an irritable bowel! My goal to deal with stress is to hydrate. Eight 8-ounce glasses of water are recommended. My good day has 20 ounces of water and 20 ounces of coffee ... at least. So I need to triple my “good day” water intake and decrease the coffee (boo hoo). I am going to try! Hopefully, it will help me manage my
stress better and I can stay away from having my colon cramp so bad I thought I was in labor. So don’t forget to hydrate, and next week I will get more into the importance of hydration. I want to commend our Rowan Regional Hospital. From Dr. Jesse’s office down to registration, volunteers, CAT scan staff and Dr. Dula, I was very impressed how all of the staff were going out of their way to make everyone feel very welcome and at ease. Thank you for that. So, to all, cardio, yoga, play basketball and racquetball, eat a balanced healthy diet ... and hydrate. Ester H Marsh, ACSM Cpt

Breast cancer survivor is ready to ‘fight like a girl’ for a cure BY JOANIE MORRIS For the Salisbury Post
JON C. LAKEY/SALISBURY POST
A ‘flock’ of cranes (see photos below) are being used by workmen to hoist large beams that will be used to assemble the temporary bridge out into the Yadkin River. The Flatiron Lane Construction Company is the general contractor for the work on the 1-85 widening and bridge over the Yadkin River.
Yadkin River bridge: A work in progress he Yadkin River Bridge, which has been named among the state’s most substandard bridges by AAA Carolinas will be replaced by the new bridge that is under construction. The bridge connects two of the biggest metropolitan regions in North Carolina, with about 60,000 cars and trucks on the route between Charlotte and Greensboro using it every day. The U.S. Department of Transportation gave the go-ahead in July 2010 to begin construction on the Interstate-85/Yadkin River Crossing project. Completion of the first phase of the project is set for January 2013. The project will relieve congestion by reducing a significant interstate bottleneck and improving travel for area residents and businesses located in Rowan and Davidson counties.

Since Partners in Learning opened 15 years ago, there has been one figure consistent in the lives of all the children — Cindy Webb. Webb started out at the early childhood center as a 3-year-old class lead teacher when the center first opened. Since that time, she’s worked her way up to becoming the early intervention director of children with special needs. Now, Webb has a special need of her on. On Wednesday, she underwent a bilateral mastectomy at Rowan Regional Medical Center. After close to eight hours of surgery, she was doing well and even asked for a cup of coffee when she came out of anesthesia. She spent two days in the hospital and is now resting at home. Her breast cancer was discovered after her primary care physician, Dr. Kim Myers at Rowan Family Physicians, sent her WEBB for a yearly mammogram. That mammogram came back “abnormal,” Webb said, causing Myers to send her back for another one. After seeing something on that one, doctors decided to do a stereotactic biopsy in which a needle was inserted into her left breast and tissue was pulled out and sent to pathology. “Originally, after the stereotactic biopsy, I was just going to do a lumpectomy on my left breast,” said Webb. After talking with the internal medicine doctor, Dr. Jonathan Storey, it was decided Webb should have a breast MRI to make sure they were just dealing with the left breast. “It came back and showed there were more areas in the left breast and some showing up in the right breast.” That is when Webb, with the help of her doctors, decided to simply have a bi-lateral mastectomy — the complete removal of both breasts and associated tissue. In addition, a lymph node was also taken for testing. Prior to her surgery, Webb said she wasn’t really scared of what would happen in the future. At first, she admitted, she was overwhelmed with her diagnosis of breast cancer. Then, it sank in and she handled it like she handles everything — one day at a time. “I’m probably not as bad as some women would be because I went through it with my mother,” says Webb. “Usually what causes people to be fearful is fear of the unknown, but this is not unknown for me.” Webb says it was because of her family history of breast cancer there is no fear factor there. “It’s familiar to me,” she says. “I’ve come to accept this (bilateral mastectomy) was my decision. It just takes care of a lot of future concerns.” Webb says her mother had the mastectomy done 15 years ago, and in that time, a lot of medical advances have been made and many other things have changed. For example, Webb had part of her reconstructive surgery done immediately after her bi-lateral mastectomy. Breast tissue expanders were inserted to help make complete reconstruction easier. Her mother was 53 when her first breast was removed and 55 when she had the second removed due to breast cancer. Webb is 50. “My sister is kind of concerned for herself and I’m kind of worried for my daughter down the road,” says Webb. That’s the fear of the unknown, but Webb says knowing your family history, as her daughter does now, will save her a lot of fear later. Another thing that keeps her grounded is faith. Webb says prayer has helped her through many tough times in her life, and this is simply one more tough time that prayer will help her through. She let all of her friends on Facebook, and in life, know about her breast cancer so they could pray for her.
Partners for a Cure Since finding out that she had breast cancer in early February, Webb said her co-workers have known. When she first told them, “they all thought I was lying to them,” Webb said, laughing. Then, almost immediately, “they were all really concerned.” “I said I was going to have to get one of those Relay for Life shirts that says, ‘Fight like a girl’ and April (Kluttz) said, ‘We’ll start our own team,’ ” Webb said.

AREA/OBITUARIES
he other day, I was driving back toward Danville on U.S. 86 after taking care of some business in Yanceyville. My first memories of being in a car are “passenger” memories, when I was a child, with my father at the wheel. He knew when he could take liberties with the speed limit and when he couldn’t, MACK never displayWILLIAMS ing the sort of impatience which could endanger himself or others. One of his driving traits, which didn’t really have anything to do with driving, was a bit of percussion which he performed on the car’s steering wheel. This was sometimes to the beat of the music being played on one of the local Salisbury AM radio stations. There were cracks in the plastic of his steering wheel and he would make “clicking “ sounds with his thumbnails in those cracks. Instead of being played like a drum or piano, those summer-induced hot-car cracks were sort of plucked like a harp. I don’t seem to recall
T
much in the way of bad behavior on the part of my father or other drivers back then. A driver’s personal space seemed to extend for a good distance in sort of a “halo” around his car, which didn’t seem to be very often intruded upon by horn honking, light flashing or bumper riding. Of course, one reason for my not noticing other drivers’ bad behaviors as a very young child was that the level of my vision had not yet reached over the car’s dashboard. When driving, one often sees a lot of rudeness displayed on the road. The particular behavior which bothers me the most is when a driver immediately behind me at a stoplight starts honking his horn, wanting me to take that “right turn on red”even if there is an obstruction to my vision on the left. Another troublesome individual is the driver who comes up behind me, usually too close, and flashes his lights. If he wants to become a first responder or EMT, he should do so, and thereby add legitimacy to his light flashing. One day, as I was walking on a sidewalk, I saw a driver become overly impatient with the slow-moving
car in front of him, gunning his engine angrily and passing the other car with great speed, spewing his foulsmelling exhaust into the air. After this brief litany of some of the bad behavior which I have observed on the highway, let me recount an example of the best, seen by me that day just outside of Yanceyville. As I headed north, around the curve ahead and facing me in the opposite lane, came a Caswell County deputy’s car, moving slowly, with lights flashing, leading a funeral procession. I hit my right turn signal and pulled off onto the shoulder, waiting for the procession to pass. After the mourners and the subject of their mourning had gone by, I glanced into my rear-view mirror, as one normally would before pulling back onto the highway. Lined up on that grasscovered shoulder was an assemblage of all makes and models of vehicles, some old and some fresh from the factory, extending as far behind me as I could see. It was enough to almost justify the North Carolina Highway Department’s paving of an additional lane for their accommodation.

SURVIVOR FROM 3A That’s when Kluttz set up a Facebook page titled “Cindy Webb: Partners for a Cure.” In addition, a Relay for Life team was also created at Partners in Learning. Kluttz, the family support specialist at Partners in Learning, decided to take her role seriously. “Partners in Learning is like a huge family,” said Kluttz. This goes for the students, their families and the staff. “When one of the staff members goes through something, it affects all of us. When we all found out Cindy was going through this, we were devastated. We just all wanted to do something in her honor and support her — that she was going to get thru this and we are all here for her.” That’s when Kluttz and the rest of the Partners in Learning family decided to start the team and help raise money for the American Cancer Society. “We’re encouraging all the
family members and staff that are not on a team already to participate and help support Relay for Life,” said Kluttz. The evening of the event, Kluttz said the team hopes to have a set-up of karaoke. People would pay to sing a song and the money would, in turn, go to Relay for Life and the American Cancer Society. Partners for a Cure “just kind of blew up over a thought,” said Kluttz. Since that time, it’s gone viral. Partners in Learning started a Facebook page, “Cindy Webb: Partners for a Cure.” In addition, they’ve been collecting money at the center and selling brown T-shirts with the words “Fight Like a Girl” on the front in hot pink, and “Cindy Webb: Partners for a Cure” on the back. The shirts are selling for $12 each and are available at the Partners in Learning Center located on the campus of Catawba College. The online portion of the team’s page, connected through the Relay for Life page, has raised $700 as of Friday, and the team has sold
lia. After an investigation and numerous calls from neighbors, the sheriff’s office raided the Enochville home Feb. 25, and found black tar heroin and marijuana packaged for sale, illegal prescription pain pills, new and used syringes, bags, scales and smoking pipes. Authorities believe the Mosses allowed people to not only come to their home for purchases, but also for use.
3-time shuttle crew member dies at age 64 HOUSTON (AP) — Threetime space shuttle crew member John Lounge, who was part of the first shuttle mission after the 1986 shuttle Challenger disaster, has died at age 64. NASA said in a statement that Lounge died in Houston on Tuesday. A cause of death wasn’t released. The Navy veteran joined the U.S. astronaut corps in 1980 and flew his first mission aboard the shuttle Discovery in 1985. His second mission came in 1988, when he was part of a shuttle Discovery mission that was the first flight after Challenger blew up during launch. The Denver native’s last flight came aboard Columbia in 1990. In all, Lounge logged 20 days in space before resigning from the astronaut corps to become director of space shuttle and space station program development for Boeing-NASA Systems.
about $900 worth of the “Fight Like a Girl” tees as of last Monday. Partners in Learning will be raising money until the day of Relay for Life and even that evening at the event. One thing Kluttz said they would be doing is putting 20ounce soda bottles in each of the center’s 10 classrooms. One 20-ounce soda bottle will hold $100 worth of dimes, so if all the bottles are filled with dimes by Relay for Life, that’s an additional $1,000 the center will have raised. “We also have an events committee that’s working on different classroom fundraisers as well,” said Kluttz. She didn’t want to hazard a guess on how much money the team will actually raise before the Relay for Life, which will be in Rowan County on May 13 at the Rowan County Fairgrounds. Anyone who would like to support the Partners for a Cure team can stop by the school during the week to make a donation, or call the school at 704-638-9020 for more information about donating online. Shirts are also still available for $12 each.

Davidson basketball coach Lefty Driesell is still my hero ne day this past week, I ran into Rick Houston at Food Lion. Rick was a good basketball player and is still a great golfer. His son Nick just finished a stellar season for the Carson basketball team. As usual when I see Rick, the conversation turns soon to sports. I mentioned to him that I had just been to Davidson College for a basketball game on the previous Saturday. The team didn’t have as good of a season as DAVID they usually do, but FREEZE the highlight of that particular day was a return to the campus by Lefty Driesell and about 40 of his players from the decade of the ’60s. Driesell coached at Davidson from 19601969. Rick mentioned that as a youngster, he and Gary Morton attended a basketball camp that was a great memory for him. Morton owns the Stag and Doe between Landis and China Grove. At the same basketball camp, instructors included Driesell, UCLA Coach John Wooden, plus Press Maravich and his son Pete. Wooden still owns the title for the longest undefeated streak, and Pete Maravich owns the career scoring record, both unlikely to be ap-
O
proached again. Maravich did this without the aid of the 3 point shot. But Rick remembered Coach Driesell and named many of his best players. Lefty Driesell was a very colorful coach who gained national prominence at Davidson, one of the smallest Division 1 schools in the nation. Driesell was hired from the high school coaching ranks to take over what he called “the worst college basketball team in America.” When hired, Driesell had a very small budget for recruiting. He stretched his allowable funds by sleeping in his car and eating at fast food places. Driesell was famous for the “stomp.” He had large feet, and when upset by a referee’s call or player’s effort, Driesell would often make a big show of stomping, and sometimes smashing a chair with his feet. Driesell won his first game at Davidson, upsetting highly favored Wake Forest. Four times his teams were ranked in the top 10, including one preseason No. 1 ranking. Eleven of his players went on to play in the NBA or ABA. All-Americans during his tenure included Bill Jarman, who graduated in 1963; Terry Holland in 1964, Fred Hetzel in 1965, Dick Snider in 1966; and Jerry Kroll, who finished after Driesell departed in 1970. Hetzel was the first player taken in the 1965 NBA

Former Davidson basketball coach Lefty Driesell watches action on the court. draft. Holland was Driesell’s first recruit at Davidson. Also honored on that particular day in Davidson was another special player that Driesell recruited. His name was Mike Maloy, a threetime All American. Driesell called Maloy “the best player that I ever coached.” Maloy broke the color barrier at Davidson by becoming the first African-American varsity player. He was the only Davidson player to be featured on the cover
of Sports Illustrated. Terry Holland, who followed Driesell as coach at Davidson, called Maloy ‘the most enjoyable player he had ever seen.” Maloy did everything with a large smile, and genuinely enjoyed life. He didn’t graduate from Davidson, but went on to sign with the ABA, eventually played in Europe and settled there. He died unexpectedly this past year, still living and teaching in Europe. Maloy’s family was on hand during the
ceremony to honor him. Driesell’s Davidson teams lost twice in the Elite 8 to the University of North Carolina by a total of 6 points, once on a last shot by Charlie Scott. Scott was highly recruited by Driesell also, and he was disappointed at not landing another potential star. Driesell went on to coach at the University of Maryland, James Madison University and Georgia State University. He is given credit for starting Midnight Madness, initiating practice at midnight as soon as the NCAA rules allow. Driesell took his Maryland team out on the track, lined it with cars to light the way and made his basketball players run a mile. He got thousands of students to come out and see it, too. On this particular day, Driesell brought back memories of his glory days at Davidson. He went on to take four different colleges to the NCAA playoffs, which is still a record. Lefty walked with a cane, but couldn’t stay seated. He kept standing up to wave to the crowd. Driesell joined John Kilgo on Wildcats’ radio for about 10 minutes of the second half. When he arose to leave, the crowd cheered him again. Born on Christmas Day in 1931, Driesell is nearing 80. He still has his famous smile and looks just plain fun to have around. Rick Houston and I thought the same thing years ago.

Officials have not released the name of the officer who shot Hutcherson. The officer is on administrative leave while state police investigate the shooting.

Troxler hopes to boost NC exports to China RALEIGH (AP) — Agriculture Commissioner Steve Troxler is headed to China in hopes of boosting North Carolina exports to the world’s second-largest economy.
Troxler and a group of agriculture industry representatives will be in Beijing starting Sunday to promote North Carolina crops like cotton, tobacco and peanuts. China is rapidly becoming the largest single foreign market for North Carolina agricultural products. In 2010, the country imported more than $542 million worth of products, up from $271 million in 2008. As part of the mission, an official North Carolina trade office will be opened in Beijing. A visit by Troxler to the country in 2009 helped land a contract with the main Chinese tobacco-buying group to purchase more than 50 million pounds of North Carolina tobacco.

Workshop promotes use of public transportation
Cost benefits The cost benefits are considerable. Americans travel more than 40 billion miles on transit each year, reducing traffic congestion. In fact, without public transportation, congestion costs would be $13.7 billion higher, according to the American Public Transportation Association. In addition, “Americans
Health benefits Not only is riding the bus 170 times safer than auto travel, riding public transit lessens air pollution, which affects health. Air pollution causes 70,000 deaths in the United States each year — twice the number caused by traffic accidents. It is associated with multiple respiratory ailments, like asthma, chronic bronchitis and even lung cancer. It also has been linked to heart problems and Hodgkin’s disease. Armstrong told the group that during the 1996 Atlanta Olympic Games, expanded transportation services reduced morning peak auto use by 22.5 percent and therefore reduced vehicle emissions. The result was a 44 percent reduction in asthma-related medical visits among HMO enrollees. In the Charlotte-GastoniaSalisbury metropolitan area, which has a total population of over 2.3 million, nearly 190,000 children and adults suffer from asthma.
Environmental benefits Individuals who ride public transit have a bigger impact on air pollution than they might think. “For each vehicle we take off the road for just one day, we can decrease our air pollution by approxi-

Compared with private vehicles, public transportation produces, on average, per passenger mile: 95 percent less carbon monoxide, 92 percent fewer volatile organic compounds, 45 percent less carbon dioxide and 48 percent less nitrogen oxide. Larry Copf, manager of service development in the Charlotte Area Transit System, said the meeting helped to connect the multiple transit providers in the area. “When most of us in the business think of transportation, we’re concentrating on our own county or own city,” he said, “but citizens don’t live their lives based on the borders. We all go across the borders into other counties and different cities all the time. “So seeing who some of the other providers are and determining how we might be able to cooperate to help people get across some of these boundaries is important,” Copf said. “I think there could be some practical applications that we might be able to come up with that will help people get around better.”

Nearly 20 transportation directors and other transit professionals recently discussed ways to offer more services at the Transportation Workshop: “Breaking down Barriers to Collaboration in Public Transportation” at the Center for the Environment facility on the Catawba College campus. They also learned more about the economic development, health, environmental and cost benefits of public transportation. Center Executive Director John Wear facilitated the meeting, which was spearheaded by directors of the CK RIDER and Cabarrus County transit systems. “It is our great pleasure to assist the transit systems in the area as they determine better ways to communicate and collaborate to address our regional transit needs,” Wear said. “We will continue to work with them to facilitate this process.” The directors discussed the need for a regional marketing program and a regional mobility manager, both of which would enhance area public transit. Shelia Armstrong, the center’s air quality outreach coordinator, told the group that an estimated 50,000 vehicles a day commute from Cabarrus County into the Charlotte metropolitan area. Emissions from cars and trucks are the primary source of groundlevel ozone, and ozone is the predominant cause of air pollution in this area. Public transportation has multiple benefits, Armstrong said: It saves money, reduces fuel consumption, provides economic opportunities, reduces air pollution and lessens our carbon footprint.
living in areas served by public transportation save 646 million hours in travel time and 398 million gallons of fuel each year in congestion reduction alone,” Armstrong said. This amounts to a savings of about $1.2 billion. Riding public transportation saves individuals on average $9,600 a year. “The average household spends 18 cents of every dollar on transportation,” she said. “A total of 94 percent of this goes to buying, maintaining and operating cars, the single largest expenditure after housing.” Armstrong noted that public transportation in North Carolina is a $250 million industry, employing more than 5,000 people, according to the N.C. Public Transportation Association.

Pa. man accused of stabbing parents, twin to death KING OF PRUSSIA, Pa. (AP) — A 23-year-old man was charged with first-degree murder in the weekend stabbing deaths of his parents and twin brother, said police, who found a Samurai-style sword covered in blood at the scene and said the suspect referred to the deaths as “extermination.” Police in Upper Merion Township, outside Philadelphia, found the bodies of Joseph McAndrew, 70, Susan McAndrew, 64, and James McAndrew, 23, in the kitchen of their home Saturday night, the Times Herald of Norristown reported. All three had multiple cuts and lacerations, and authorities recovered several knives and the sword from the home, police said. The officers, who were responding to a report of a domestic disturbance, found Joseph McAndrew
Jr., 23, in the driveway with his shoes and pants “covered in blood,” authorities said in an affidavit of probable cause. Talking to detectives later, McAndrew described what happened as an “extermination,” police said in the affidavit. McAndrew Jr. was charged with three counts of first-degree murder and possessing instruments of crime. District Justice William Marusczak ordered him held without bail Sunday pending a March 15 preliminary hearing, the report said. It was unclear whether he had an attorney. Neighbor Joe Clark told KYW radio that James McAndrew had recently moved back home after graduating from Penn State, and he described the twins’ parents as devoted. “They did everything, gave them everything they needed,” Clark said.

road,” he says. The trike has a fourspeed stick shift in the middle, as you find in the old VW Beetles. He depends on a truck lever for his turn signals. It lies underneath the front saddle seat. The clutch is a foot pedal on the floor to the left. He accelerates from the left handlebar. The right handlebar has a front brake, in addition to a rear brake down on the right floorboard. A console in front of the driver includes an oil pressure gauge and a switch for the headlight. White bought the two car tires in back from Walmart, and they are a bit wider than a Beetle would have had. The 36-horsepower motor gets about 35 miles per gallon. It’s a comfortable ride and not too noisy, White reports. The motor “was running good” when he extracted it from the old 1973 Beetle. “They’re a tough little car,” White says. “I owned two or three.” White has affixed a Confederate flag license plate
on the back of his trike that says, “Dern tooten’ I’m a Rebel.” It also carries the name “Texas Hold ‘Em.” White relied on “no patterns, no nothing” in putting his three-wheeled motorcycle together. “I wanted to build one to ride, and I put it together as I went,” he says. He had a cutting wheel to help in the fashioning of all the sheet metal, and some welding was involved. In his younger days, White says, he did a lot of custom work on cars. After his trike was built, White obtained the necessary paperwork and arranged for a highway patrolman to come to his house and inspect it, so he would be able to obtain his license tags and registration. It is considered a 2008 model. Once the trike is repaired and running again, White and Barth plan to haul it on the new trailer to a Florida vacation, where they will have fun taking it to different places. “We’re not going to ride it on the interstate,” Barth says.

FROM 1a spine. In order to replace things, the doctor had to break one of Ian’s ribs and collapse his left lung. But the lung was supposed to inflate quickly, and hasn’t, Angela said. Saturday the lung was starting to inflate a bit, but on Sunday morning doctors discovered Ian’s right lung had collapsed. Ian was taken off of a ventilator Saturday, and is using an oxygen mask. If he’s put back on the ventilator, Angela fears Ian could face pneumonia. “We’re still kind of on rocky ground now,” Angela said. Doctors continue to give Ian pain medication every hour, but “it’s not even
touching him,” his mother said. The physical therapy is helping a little, though, she said, and doctors will check on his lungs again this morning. “To make it through a sixand-a-half hour surgery, he did well.” Angela said. “They anticipated eight hours.” Another surgery success, she said, is that Ian will not have to wear a brace once he gets out of the hospital. But the lung problems still worry Ian’s family and doctors. “I think he’ll be fine,” Angela said. “We do want people to pray for him.” Angela said prayers and God got Ian through his first two surgeries, and sheknows God is there with them again this time. “We do believe in miracles,” she said.

Dear Cranky: If you wanted to be dominated and socially isolated, you could just go back to high school (though a boss of mine once described the average workplace as “high school, minus the Clearasil”). The toxic situation in your
office is interfering with your ability to do your work, and this should be your primary concern when you bring the issue to your supervisor. Your co-worker’s refusal to communicate with you, even about work projects, means that she is being extremely unprofessional in a way that is sure to affect your productivity. If she won’t play nice, then you should do what you can to regain a foothold in your own workplace by angling to take charge of projects — doing all the work yourself, if necessary. Send her polite and professional e-mails asking detailed questions on matters you need to know about. If she won’t reply or if she supplies you with misleading or inaccurate information, you’ll have a paper trail leading back to her. At the same time, you should look for opportunities within your company to join a different team. Your focus should be on your determination to get the job done. Dear Amy: Can you do this public service announcement for your readers? As my father began to age, we thought we had everything in place. Power of attorney documents were updated and executed. Children’s names were added to bank accounts to make check writing easier.
When my father began a sudden decline into memory loss and dementia, I was glad that we’d taken care of everything. Except personal identification numbers. My dad was very active on the computer and actually kept track of his PINs. Except when he changed them. He also was a sucker for signing up for things with recurring charges, whether or not he needed them. Now instead of being able to take care of things quickly and easily, I have to spend my days going to the bank, spending time on the phone with customer service reps, etc. I’d advise anyone who may become a caregiver to have a talk with your loved one about recurring charges, PINs, etc. You never know when it’s going to be too late to have the conversation and it’s a lot easier to untangle earlier rather than later. — Busy Caregiver Dear Caregiver: Great advice. Caregivers learn one of the biggest challenges is to help the loved one give up control, with dignity. This is best done gradually and with total honesty and transparency — earlier rather than later. Dear Amy: I am responding to the issue of marrying cou-
ples asking for “no boxed gifts” for wedding presents. I’m a 27-year-old man and I’m attending more and more weddings. For me, the request of no boxed gifts, or even cash only, seems reasonable. Maybe when people were married right out of high school it made sense to buy lots of gifts to help the couple set up a household. In this day and age, couples have been living or working on their own for years. The only things they might not have are big-ticket items like homes, cars, weddings and honeymoons. Maybe people should put those items on their wedding registries? Or should married couples expect to receive gifts they already own? — Matt

Dear Amy: I have had 20 years’ experience with my company. I moved into a new area within my company two years ago. My co-worker, who has equal professional status, has been with the company for three years but only has experience in one rather specialized field. She moved into this office three weeks before I did and has become the “queen bee,” so to speak. We’re supposed to share responASK sibilities but AMY she takes over everything, and although the boss assures me that he’ll address the issue, he doesn’t. She’s also decided not to speak to me, which doesn’t help. I’ve been looking for another job but haven’t been successful. This makes for a very stressful environment. What can I do? — Cranky Colleague

SALISBURY POST
Mary says to give the kids flying lessons “Giving” is money your child gives to charity or church. “Long-Term Savings” is for college or something far in the future. “Short-Term Savings” is for something significant, such as a new bike or a special toy. “Spend Now” is money your child can spend right away. Using the four-container system, you might decide on a 10-30-30-30 plan or 10-30-4020. Whatever it is, make it nonnegotiable, and then help your child develop a habit of managing his/her money before he/she spends it. Start your child early. Tracking his/her spending (date, how much and what for) will become an excellent lifetime habit. The goal of parenting is to help children grow wings to eventually fly away. Building financial confidence early in your children’s lives is one important way you can prepare them for the flight. You may believe that you will not have to deal with the lettinggo part of parenting for many years. But let me tell you from experience: It will be here sooner than you think, and it will be a lot easier if you start now. Mary Hunt is the founder of www.DebtProofLiving.com and author of 18 books, including her best-selling clas-
Colander uses that won’t strain your brain Colanders last a long time. But through heavy use, they get chipped, dented, partially rusted or melted. Eventually, you’ll need to replace your old colander with a new one. Don’t throw the old one away. There are multiple creative ways to use it even if SARA it’s not in perNOEL fect condition. If your colander is still in great shape, I’ve included a few ways to make it multitask. One reader, Polly from Pennsylvania, shares: “Reevaluating what you already own can save you tons of money while giving a fresh new look to a space. Perhaps the pictures in your dining room would look great in your bedroom. Maybe those tea towels would look great thrown over your kitchen curtain rods. Those old vintage hankies that have been taking up space in your drawer might make a lovely wall grouping hung in frames on your bedroom wall. Your old beat-up colander just might look great spray-painted copper, with a potted plant in it, or maybe that chest of drawers in your bedroom would be perfect for storing tablecloths and extra things, like the gravy boat you
pull out twice a year.” Do you have any handy household ways to use a colander? Here are some more ideas: • Produce container: It can hold fruit or vegetables. Place on your kitchen counter as a practical and pretty display bowl, or use it in the refrigerator for food such as grapes or berries. • Food cover: Use a colander to cover food at a backyard BBQ. It will protect your food from insects. Or use it indoors to cover a plate of hot food such as waffles or pancakes. It will help keep them warm until it’s time to serve them. • Play time: A colander can help corral bathtub toys. The holes let the toys breathe and drip dry, too. Kids will enjoy using one at the beach or in a sandbox as a sifting toy. Don’t have young kids? Use it to hold a loofah, washcloth, soaps, etc., in your bathroom. • Crafts: Use a drill and a clock kit and make a whimsical clock. Or make a creative hanging lamp by adding a lamp cord. Visit www.instructables.com/id/HangingColander-Lamp-Shade for a tutorial. • Gift container: Use as a nowaste gift container. Fill it with homemade goodies, an Italian gift “basket” or kitchen items. • Plants: A colander can
make a fun container for plants. The bowl shape lends itself well to being made into a hanging planter. Plant herbs or seeds for a beautiful mini container garden. Use one to grow sprouts, too. Visit www.youtube.com/user/LivingApartment for a how-to video. • Steamer: A metal colander can be used as a makeshift steamer basket. Place vegetables in the colander and place the colander inside a large pan (that allows the colander to balance on the edges and not be immersed) of water to steam vegetables. • Yogurt cream cheese: Make a homemade substitute for cream cheese. Another reader, Patty A., from Utah, shares a recipe: “You’ll need one tub of low-fat plain yogurt, cheesecloth, a colander and mixing bowl. Place the colander over the mixing bowl. Wet the cheesecloth and line the colander with it. Dump the yogurt onto the cheesecloth so the yogurt can drain through the cloth. Let drain for an hour. Tie the corners and leave to drain overnight in the fridge. The next day put the cheese in a storage container. Discard the liquid left in the mixing bowl. You can eat it straight (like cream cheese), or you can mix spinach and other flavors into it for a great dip or spread.” United FeatUre Syndicate

perts say absolutely, that allowance should be the payment children receive for doing their chores and assigned jobs. No work? No pay. Other experts feel that citizens of the “family community” should share in its rewards, income and responsibilities. Allowances should be the child’s share of the family income. They say an allowance should not be the payment for chores and assigned jobs, that with privilege comes responsibility. Citizens must do chores and jobs because they are part of the community. That’s what good citizens do. A third alternative is to give your child a base allowance that is low, assigning him/her regular chores that are separate from the allowance. Then post a list of optional jobs that are available for additional pay. Children can count on a portion of the community income; they are responsible to work for the community; and they have an incentive to earn more money when one of those posted jobs looks interesting. A simple way to teach your child basic money management is to get four jars and label them: Giving, LongTerm Savings, Short-Term Savings and Spend Now.

Kids of elementary school age are becoming aware of the real world around them. They are eager to learn, and they still believe everything adults tell them. And they want their own money. For all of those reasons, I suggest that now is the perfect time to start a simple allowance system. This will create wonderful opportunities MARY for you to HUNT pass on your values as you closely guide your young children through simple lessons on giving, needs versus wants, and delaying gratification. • How much? So, how much allowance should a young child receive? The amount depends on your financial situation. Some families set an allowance according to age, say, one dollar for each year of age. This eliminates questions about when and how much to increase. • How often? At this age, children do better with close supervision and short time frames, so giving their allowance weekly is best. • Tied to chores? Many ex-

NationalBriefs Mine association questions when to call off dangerous rescues
MONDAY, MARCH 7, 2011 • 11A
SALISBURY POST
RENO, Nev. (AP) — A worker plunges deep into an abandoned mine shaft. Nearly 200 feet down, video images show he is injured but still breathing, trapped by debris. The century-old shaft, though, is extremely unstable, its walls crumbling. As one rescuer tries to descend to reach the man, he is hit by a large rock, which splits his hard-hat. Other efforts yield more falling rocks and clear evidence: This is going to be a dangerous mission — maybe too dangerous. The scenario unfolded underneath Nevada last week, when rescue teams were told to stand down in their bid to reach Devin Westenskow, a 28-year-old father of five, even as they had evidence he was still alive. But the ethical quesWESTENSKOW tions are more universal: How do you balance the desire to save a human being in peril with the equally important priority of keeping emergency workers safe and alive to rescue another day? “You’re playing God in a sense” said Rob McGee, secretary-treasurer of the United States Mine Rescue Association.
Farewells for crews and Discovery on shuttle’s last flight CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) — The space shuttle and space station crews hugged goodbye Sunday after more than a week together, but saved their most heartfelt farewell for Discovery. On its final voyage after nearly three decades, Discovery, the most traveled rocketship ever, will be retired following this week’s return to Earth. The hatches between Discovery and the International Space Station were sealed Sunday afternoon, setting the stage for the shuttle’s departure first thing Monday. “We’re going to miss you,” the space station’s commander, Scott Kelly, told the six shuttle astronauts. “But most of all we’re going to miss Discovery. “Discovery has been a great ship and has really supported the International Space Station more so, I think, than any other space shuttle. We wish her fair winds and

Investors wonder about a bubble in bull market Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke fielded the usual questions about inflation, tax cuts and government debt during a trip to Congress last week. Then a new question popped up: Is the Fed creating another bubble in stock prices? Bernanke told the Senate Banking Committee he saw “little evidence” that was happening. But he cautioned: “Of course, nobody can know for sure.” That’s the problem with bubbles. You only know you’re in one when it pops. This week is the second anniversary of the bull market that followed the financial meltdown. The Standard & Poor’s 500-stock index is in its fastest climb since 1955, doubling since the market bottomed on March 9, 2009. In January and February alone, it’s up 5.5 percent, the best start to a year since 1998. Stock bubbles are famously hard to define. In 1999, for instance, investors thought it was perfectly rational to pay 62 times a company’s earnings per share for a technology stock because it seemed dot-com companies couldn’t lose. They only realized their error when many of those companies turned out to be nothing more than slick marketing ploys.
White House jabs GOP diplomat who may run in 2012 WASHINGTON (AP) — The White House is praising a departing U.S. ambassador for supporting the administration and working closely with President Barack Obama. Not much news there. Except the diplomat — former Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman — is a potential GOP opponent for Obama in 2012. And his ties to a Democratic president might not go over too well with Republican activists who play a large role in selecting the party’s nominee. Huntsman is set to resign at ambassador to China in April. Obama’s chief of staff, William Daley, tells NBC’s “Meet the Press” that Huntsman has done an excellent job as ambassador. Daley says Huntsman’s closeness in working with Obama is appreciated. Daley got in a little jab by adding, in his words, “I’m sure he’ll talk about that in the primaries.”
Twister victims look to cleanup and caring for left-behind pets
Romney: I can beat Obama on economy
RAYNE, La. (AP) — As the storm roared over Pauline Patton’s apartment, she peered out the window and saw something she wasn’t ready for: a funnel cloud. Suddenly, the power went out. Rainwater poured through the ceiling. And as everything went black, she heard what sounded like a bomb exploding overhead. Still, residents said the tornado that killed a woman the day before and displaced hundreds could have been much worse. Many have turned their attention to taking care of pets and retrieving essentials left behind while evacuating. Patton, 64, and her husband, Howard, were having lunch Sunday at a fire stationturned-shelter, courtesy of the Red Cross. They weren’t sure when — or if — they’d be able to return to their apartment. About two dozen people were also at the shelter, with
BARTLETT, N.H. (AP) — This time, Mitt Romney has a clear pitch: I’m the strongest Republican to challenge President Barack Obama on the country’s single biggest issue — the economy. “He created a deeper recession, and delayed the recovery,” Romney said Saturday, previewing his campaign ROMNEY message before Republicans in this influential early nominating state. “The consequence is soaring numbers of Americans enduring unemployment, foreclosures and bankruptcies. This is the Obama Misery Index, and it is at a record high.” “It’s going to take more than new rhetoric to put
nowhere else to go. “It just happened so fast,” she said. “You couldn’t hardly see nothing. Everything was dark.” Some 1,500 people were unable to return to their homes in this community about 70 miles west of Baton Rouge, said Rayne Police Chief Carroll Stelly. About 150 homes had been damaged or destroyed as winds topped out at 135 mph, leaving at least 12 with injuries that were not life-threatening. Others could not return to their homes because workers were still surveying damage and trying to get utilities running again.
Johnny Depp’s ‘Rango’ corrals $38M on opening weekend LOS ANGELES (AP) — “Rango” has lassoed the top spot at the box office. The animated Paramount film featuring Johnny Depp as the voice of a Wild West chameleon sheriff rode into town with a $38 million debut, according to studio estimates released Sunday. “Rango,” which was directed by “Pirates of the Caribbean” film franchise maestro Gore Verbinski, is the first animated feature from Industrial Light and Magic, the special effects studio founded by George Lucas in 1975. “The draw for audiences was certainly Johnny Depp and Gore Verbinski, but when you look at the reviews, it was 88 percent positive on Rotten Tomatoes, which is a level that Pixar operates at,” said Don Harris, Paramount’s executive vice president for distribution. “This is a film that has a shot at being nominated for Academy Awards this time next year.” Universal’s mind-bending thriller “The Adjustment Bu-
reau,” starring Matt Damon and Emily Blunt, debuted in the No. 2 spot with $20.9 million. CBS Films’ fantasy tale “Beastly” with Alex Pettyfer and Vanessa Hudgens opened at No. 3 with $10.1 million, rounding out the weekend’s top three films. It was another down weekend for Hollywood, with grosses coming in less than the corresponding weekend last year.
NJ man accused of stabbing ex-wife 84 times MORRISTOWN, N.J. (AP) — Authorities say a northern New Jersey man fatally stabbed his ex-wife 84 times last summer and covered her face with a Halloween pig mask. Anthony Novellino of Denville has been indicted on murder and weapons charges. He also faces a charge of tampering with physical evidence in the indictment handed up Friday by a Morris County grand jury. The 63-year-old could face life in prison without parole if convicted. Prosecutors say Novellino attacked his wife, Judith, in their home in June. They had recently finalized their divorce and Judith Novellino, a high school English teacher, was packing items to take to her apartment when he sneaked into the home and stabbed her. Their adult daughter found her body the next day. Novellino was captured days later in Washington state.
Survey: Gas price in US jumps 33 cents in 2 weeks CAMARILLO, Calif. (AP) — A new survey says the av-
erage price of regular gasoline in the United States has jumped 33 cents per gallon in the last two weeks. The Lundberg Survey of fuel prices released Sunday says it’s the second biggest price increase over a twoweek span on record. Analyst Trilby Lundberg found in the survey completed Friday that the average national price of a gallon of regular is $3.51. The average price for midgrade is $3.64, and premium was at $3.75. Diesel is up 29 cents, to $3.88 a gallon. Billings, Mont., had the lowest average price among cities surveyed at $3.15 a gallon for regular. San Diego was the highest among surveyed areas at $3.87. Fresno had California’s lowest gas prices, at $3.70 for a regular gallon.
Woman knocks bottles from shelf at NY liquor store NYACK, N.Y. (AP) — Police say a woman at a suburban New York liquor store swept her arm through a shelf of high-priced booze, smashing $1,600 worth onto the floor because she felt a clerk was taking too long to wait on her. Surveillance video from the Rite-Buy Wines & Liquors in Nyack shows the woman sticking out her right arm as she strides out of the store Feb. 23. She knocks dozens of bottles from a waist-high shelf, breaking many of them. The owner’s son, Chris Giacopelli, says the damage included bottles of pricey Johnnie Walker Blue Label scotch. Clarkstown Sgt. Harry Baumann said Friday that the woman has turned herself in. She is due in court March 16 but has not been charged.

“The truth shall make you free”
My Turn: Dennis Lemly
The Great Migration a turning point in N.C. “H
e had to walk a thin line between being a man and acting a slave. Step too far on one side, and he couldn’t live with himself. Step too far on the other, and he might not live at all.” Isabel Wilkerson is describing the all too common dilemma of blacks in the South during the early and middle part of the last century. Her book “The Warmth of Other Suns” is a compelling chronicle of the exodus of Southern blacks to D.G. Northern cities beMARTIN tween 1915 and 1970. During this “Great Migration,” 6 million African Americans moved away from the South. In 1915, 90 percent of American blacks lived in the South. By 1970, 47 percent lived outside the region. The impact on American life, culture and politics, Wilkerson asserts, was and is monumental. She gives the facts and figures to show the importance of the Migration. But the power and appeal of her book are its stories —like the “thin line” that the Mississippi sharecropper husband of Ida Mae Gladney had to walk when he quietly and respectfully “registered his discontent” to “Mr. Edd,” his landlord and boss. Mr. Edd and a group of men had barged into the Gladney shack one night. One of the men had threatened and terrified Ida Mae. Then the group severely beat a man they had mistakenly accused of stealing turkeys. Ida Mae and her husband were convinced that they could be the next to suffer a beating, if they stepped the least bit out of line. “This is the last crop we making,” he told Ida Mae. Getting out of Mississippi — or any Southern state — in 1937 was not as easy as I would have thought. Sharecroppers were usually in debt to the landlord. That debt effectively attached them to the land as if they were serfs. The out migration of blacks created a labor shortage for farm owners in the South. When their workers tried to leave, they did everything they could to persuade them or intimidate them to stay. Ida Mae and her family successfully slipped out of Mississippi and made their way to Chicago, where they faced another set of racially based discrimination in housing and workplace opportunities. But it was nothing like what they had had to fear back home. In Mississippi, Ida Mae had not thought of voting. In Chicago, she quickly became a voter and a political worker. Late in her life, a young state senator visited her local organization. She paid him little attention, not knowing that he would someday be President of the United States. Wilkerson shares the stories of two other migrants. George Starling grew up working in the Florida orange groves. When his plans for continuing his college education were disrupted, he went back to picking fruit. When he stirred up trouble by demanding more pay, he became a target of the local sheriff, an unapologetic. Fearing a lynching, he hid and snuck away to New York City. George became a railroad porter and took care of passengers who, like him, were fleeing the South. Professional people, like Dr. Robert Foster, a surgeon, left because the doors to the operating rooms in Southern hospitals were not open for use by black doctors. In Los Angeles, Foster found another set of closed professional doors. Over time he knocked down most of them. When he saved the injured hand of musician Ray Charles, he became famous and wealthy. Ida Mae, George, Robert, and six million others left the South. But when they left, they took the South with them. They brought their food, their music, their religion, and their ways of speaking to the North. And the North would never be the same. • • • D.G. Martin hosts UNC-TV’s “North Carolina Bookwatch.”
Salisbury Post State may be liable for PCBs in Badin Lake Y
SHIFTING SANDS ALONG N.C. COAST
Homes aren’t all that’s at risk Salisbury resident and Ocean Isle Beach property owner Michael S. Young comments on a legislative proposal that would allow construction of terminal groins on N.C. ocean shorelines next to inlets under certain conditions. N.C. Senate Bill 110 deals with groins built at ocean inlets. It does not permit jetties or groins in front of private property owners’ homes. When a lot of unknowing people talk about coastal erosion issues, they context their remarks with contempt for the rich beach property owners and call beach maintenance (beach dredging of the Intracoastal Waterway and inlets and placement of sand on the beach) welfare for the rich. They talk about allowing the houses to fall into the ocean because it is inevitable. N.C. beach tourism is the third largest industry in the state, generating billions of YOUNG dollars from out of state tourists annually. This industry supports and creates hundreds of thousands of jobs. We need to frame this discussion in terms of jobs and wealth creation for North Carolina. Beach maintenance is the necessary underbelly of that industry, and it requires reinvestment from time to time. The cost of maintaining our beaches pales in comparison to the jobs created, the wealth created and tax revenue generated by beach tourism. The people who have lost their homes on Ocean Isle Beach to the ocean were not rich. By far, most are middle to upper income. Some inherited properties, some bought as investments instead of mutual funds or 401ks, some are full-time residents who have lived on the island all of their lives. Many of those homeowners who had mortgages or were fulltime residents lost everything. Some are in bankruptcy. What makes these losses truly tragic is that it was avoidable, had the town of Ocean Isle Beach been permitted to build a

Current costal policy does not allow groins at inlets dredged for navigation and commerce. Like Interstate 85, the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway is manmade, built as a water highway for boats and shipping commerce. Both the waterway and our inlets are not natural. The beaches are not natural. They benefit from the dredged sand. The erosion on the east end of Ocean Isle Beach is partially a manmade problem caused from dredging for navigation and commerce. It is not fair to take the sand out of the inlets and not mitigate the erosion that the dredging causes. It does not make sense to spend millions of dollars to pump hundreds of millions of cubic feet of sand out of the waterway and inlets annually, only to let it wash back into the channels. It is avoidable because cost-saving groins can slow or stop the erosion process and sand loss without damaging the environment. Independent coastal scientists, geologist and engineers concur and have recommended to the Coastal Resources Commission that groins be permitted under certain conditions at our states 17 navigable inlets. Many (environmentalists and non-coastal citizens) would say, just stop dredging, and that will fix the problem. But to stop dredging and throw in the towel on a billion-dollar industry isn’t a realistic option. It is hard to have a honest discussion with people who don’t understand the enormous economic engine that the beach economy is to our entire state. Vacation is serious business. Protecting the environment, business and jobs are not mutually exclusive. SB 110 is a good bill and should be adopted.
Tide may be turning in Raleigh RALEIGH — Once again, the North Carolina legislature is debating the building of jetties along the coast. Oh wait, the experts say they are “terminal groins.” Whatever. As I’ve said before, Capt. Robert E. Lee didn’t design any terminal groins at Fort Macon. He called them jetties. For 150 years, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers called them jetties. Enough on the language. For the past few decades, the state has mostly banned the construction of long strings of big rocks running out into the ocean. SCOTT MOONEYHAM The reason for the ban is because geologists agree that those jetties do exactly what they’re intended to do — they change the migration patterns of sand. If you live on the northern end of Figure Eight Island, changing that migration pattern could be a good thing. The northern portion of the island has been eroding away at a fairly fast clip for the last several years. Some folks with homes on the northern portion of the island have been among the most vocal supporters of repealing the ban on hardened structures. They might finally get their way. The Senate approved a repeal a couple of years ago. But over in the House, former Speaker Joe Hackney wasn’t much of a fan of the legislation. It died there. These days, Hackney is in the minority party. That gives supporters of the repeal hope that new legislation will pass both legislative chambers this year.
But what if you own one of those homes further down Figure Eight Island, or somewhere else downwind of an inlet where a jetty might be placed? Remember, jetties don’t invent sand. They just help alter its natural movement from one place to another. There may be places where moving that sand won’t harm anyone, where it will just mean that sand which would have migrated to uninhabited islands will instead show up along beaches with homes. Elsewhere, legislators are endorsing a proposal that could, literally, rob some Peter to pay some Paul. Of course, when Paul’s home is about to fall in the ocean, and Peter’s looks fine today, it’s easy to dismiss that logic. The policy argument becomes about saving homes and property tax bases today. The numbers aren’t small. In the town of Emerald Isle alone, the municipal tax base is $4.2 billion. A state study of jetties estimated that $320 million in property on Bald Head Island will be at risk of erosion over the next 30 years. Still, supporters of overturning the ban don’t want to acknowledge that, on a long-term basis, building jetties may do nothing to alleviate that risk. It may just change the winners and losers. Of course, once the state begins permitting and endorsing these projects, the losers may not be confined to the homeowners on the second mile of the barrier island. After all, when their sand starts disappearing, they can now blame the state. And who will then be the robbed Peter? Surely not the taxpayers asked to pay to pump sand on the beach. • • • Scott Mooneyham writes about state issues for Capitol Press Association.
adkin Riverkeeper (YRK) has issued a letter of intent to sue Alcoa for its PCB pollution of Badin Lake and associated violation of the federal Clean Water Act (CWA). On the surface, the complaint seems to expose a straightforward case of industry breaking water quality laws. However, a closer examination of Alcoa’s Badin Works operations over the past 40 years and North Carolina’s regulatory activities during that time reveals another aspect of the problem. The Alcoa PCB pollution issue is an example of the failure of the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES), a joint federal-state regulatory program that was established as part of the CWA in 1972. NPDES is the primary tool that states use to control toxic industrial waste by issuing permits that limit the amount of harmful chemicals released into surface waters. In 1975, EPA transferred authority and responsibility for permit writing to the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (DWQ). The following year EPA issued its “Red Book” of federal water quality guidelines, which informed DWQ about the environmental and public Dennis Lemly is health hazard of PCBs a research associ(including their accuate professor of biol- mulation in fish and diogy at Wake Forest etary threat to huUniversity. E-mail: mans), their use in lemlyad@wfu.edu. electric transformers such as those at Alcoa’s Badin Works and the need to recognize them as a high priority pollutant. The Red Book specifically stated that “every reasonable effort should be made to minimize human exposure.” Several other prominent federal reports were issued during 1972-1975, alerting the state’s environmental and public health departments to the sources, hazard and need for regulatory control of PCBs. Thus, by 1976 the knowledge and administrative process necessary for North Carolina to identify, evaluate and regulate PCB discharges to Badin Lake was in place. Yet, Alcoa’s Badin Works was not identified as a PCB concern until 1990, and then only because of a federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) investigation of cyanide and fluoride discharges in seepage from solid waste management units (SWMUs), not because there was a suspected PCB issue. Subsequent RCRA intervention led to corrective actions that included excavation of PCB-contaminated soil and capping of SWMUs to reduce discharges of PCBs and other contaminants to Badin Lake. Evidence suggests that DWQ was sufficiently informed and knowledgeable about the sources and risks of PCBs to trigger an investigation of Alcoa’s Badin Works and take regulatory steps much earlier, but chose not to act. For example, it did not issue a NPDES permit for surface water discharges at Badin Works until 1981. That initial permit and all of the revised and updated permits issued since then recognized storm water runoff as a source of pollution (contaminated storm water runoff in Alcoa’s NPDESpermitted outfalls was the source of PCB transport into Badin Lake, according to a 2001 RCRA report and a 2010 EPA report) but they had no limits for PCBs. In fact, the words “polychlorinated biphenyl” or the acronym “PCB” do not appear in any of Alcoa’s NPDES permits despite the fact that there have been applicable water quality standards and guidelines for PCBs since 1976. The requirements set forth by DWQ were for “visual or olfactory assessment” of stormwater discharge characteristics that included color, odor, clarity, floating solids, suspended solids, foam, oil sheen and “other obvious indicators of storm water pollution.” Without specific monitoring/reporting requirements and effluent concentration limits for PCBs, the permits were meaningless and ineffective at controlling PCB discharges to Badin Lake. State intervention through NPDES could have reasonably been expected to take place as early as 1976, which would have greatly accelerated the identification, removal and safe disposal of PCB-contaminated soil. A 1970s action by DWQ would have prevented or minimized erosion and storm water runoff of PCB-laden soil into Badin Lake for two decades preceding the RCRA corrective measures that took place in the 1990s. This would have substantially curtailed PCB loading to Badin Lake and reduced the amount that is now in nearby lake sediments, perhaps by 80 percent or more. I agree with YRK that PCB pollution of Badin Lake should never have happened, but in answering the question of who was responsible, one has to take a hard look at the state in addition to Alcoa. If YRK is going to sue Alcoa, I think it should also consider taking action against the state for inadequate regulatory control of PCB discharges. “My Turn” columns should be between 500 and 700 words.

Crowd in NYC rallies against hearing on US Muslims NEW YORK (AP) — Some 300 people gathered in Times Square on Sunday to speak out against a planned congressional hearing on Muslim terrorism, criticizing it as xenophobic and saying that singling out Muslims, rather than extremists, is unfair. Hip-hop mogul Russell Simmons and the imam who had led an effort to build an Islamic center near the World Trade Center site were among those who addressed the crowd. “Our real enemy is not Islam or Muslims,” said the imam, Feisal Abdul Rauf. “The enemy is extremism and radicalism and radical ideology.” The chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, Rep. Peter King, has said that affiliates of al-Qaida are radicalizing some American Muslims. He’s planned hearings starting Thursday on the threat he says they pose. King, a Republican from New York’s Long Island, told CNN’s “State of the Union” on Sunday that he sees an international movement with elements in the United States of Muslims becoming more radical and identifying with terrorists. Speakers at the cold and drizzly Times Square rally said King was targeting Muslims unfairly. “American Muslims are as fully American as any other faith community,” said Rabbi Marc Schneier, founder of The Foundation for Ethnic Understanding. Singling out Muslim Americans “as the source of homegrown terrorism” is an injustice, he said.
Democratic Congressman Andre Carson of Indiana, one of two Muslims in Congress, said he wanted to say “to the Peter Kings of the world: We will not take your xenophobic behavior.” Imam Shamsi Ali, the leader of the Islamic Cultural Center on Manhattan’s Upper East Side, said, “We are here today because we love this country. We are here today because we want to see America remain the most powerful and the most beautiful country in the world.” Simmons promised “to make sure that this rally is taken to the next generation and to a new age” by enlisting entertainers and sports figures to tweet about it, including Kim Kardashian, who tweeted Sunday that she stood with Simmons in “promoting love and compassion.” A smaller group rallied a few blocks away in support of King’s hearings. Beth Gilinsky of the Jewish Action Alliance heaped scorn on ASSocIAteD preSS the Times Square rally’s slogan, “Today I am a Muslim too,” and Iman Mohammed Magid, executive director, All referenced Rauf, who was given Dulles Area Muslim Society, addresses an ina reduced role in the Islamic cen- terfaith forum at the ADAM mosque in Sterling, ter project this year because he Va. had other commitments. “I want to tell Imam Rauf and Imam Shamsi Ali and all of the rest of lim. I’m not going to be a Muslim for them up there that I am not a Muslim even 24 hours, Imam Rauf, and I’m not today,” Gilinsky said. “Yesterday I going to be a Muslim tomorrow. You wasn’t a Muslim. Today I’m not a Mus- will not convert me.”
Lava spews 65 feet high after crater collapse VOLCANO, Hawaii (AP) — A new vent has opened at one of the world’s most active volcanoes, sending lava shooting up to 65 feet high, scientists at Kilauea volcano said Sunday. The Hawaiian Volcano Observatory said the fissure eruption was spotted shortly after the floor at the Pu’u O’o crater collapsed around 5 p.m. Saturday. It occurred along the middle of Kilauea’s east rift zone, about 2 miles west of Pu’u O’o. “As a volcanologist, this is what we do. These are the moments we wait for,” volcanologist Janet Babb told
KHON2. “It is exciting to see an eruption begin particularly if you can see it from the very start.” Kilauea has been in constant eruption since Jan. 3, 1983. At the summit, lava receded rapidly late Saturday but seemed to slow Sunday. There were also about 150 small earthquakes were recorded within Kilauea in the past 24 hours. Scientists said areas near the vent could erupt or collapse without warning, posing a threat to visitors or hikers to the area. Also potentially lethal concentrations of sulfur dioxide gas
could be present within about a halfmile downwind of vent areas. Because of the latest activity, the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park has closed Chain of Craters Road and all east rift zone and coastal trails. Kulanaokuaiki campground was also closed until further notice. Babb told the Hawaii Tribune-Herald that the fissure has expanded to about 535 yards long and that scientists were hiking into the remote area to observe the fissure and take readings. No homes are under threat.

6 killed, 3 injured in Texas mobile home fire GRANBURY, Texas (AP) — A fire raced through a lakefront home in North Texas early Sunday, killing six people and injuring three others, authorities said. The fire broke out at about 5:30 a.m. Sunday in a doublewide mobile home in Lake Granbury, about 65 miles southwest of Dallas, Hood County Fire Marshal Brian Fine told the Associated Press. The fire happened after a birthday party that had largely broken up for the night, Fine said. The dead ranged in age from 18 to 30 years old and included three men and three women who had lingered after the party, he said. Two of the injured were airlifted to Parkland Memorial Hospital in Dallas, where they were treated for smoke inhalation and minor cuts and discharged, Fine said. The third was admitted for observation at John Peter Smith Hospital in Fort Worth, Fine said. The identities of the dead and injured were being withheld until their families could be notified, Fine said. None were from Hood County, however, making family con-
tacts difficult, he said. No cause has been determined for the fire, which was fought by multiple departments around the county, Fine said. The Port Ridglea East development, where the fire took place, is made up mostly of retirees and weekenders. Shirley Culberhouse, who lives about seven houses down the street from the home that burned, told the AP that it “was a group of boys who had moved in, and they were having a party.” Another neighbor, auto mechanic Michael Brennan, said the party woke him up. “About 2:15 (a.m.), the noise woke me up. There was an argument going on. Then, there were cars pulling out, and I was sort of waiting for the sheriff to show up when the fire happened,” he said. The house was occupied full time, Brennan said.

Libyan helicopter gunships try to stop rapid rebel advance toward capital BIN JAWWAD, Libya (AP) — Forces loyal to Moammar Gadhafi, some in helicopter gunships, pounded opposition fighters with artillery, rockets and gunfire Sunday, dramatically escalating their counteroffensive to halt the rebels’ rapid advance toward the capital. They also battled to loosen the grip of rebels on two cities close to Tripoli. But in at least one case, their tactics appeared to

smaller than in the past. Others said the city had no busy holding the celebration at all. “People are living in tents, people are in misery,” 24year-old Gerda Delcy said as he waited for his daughter to pass in the parade. “It’s not really a good time for Carnival.” Even some of the marchers shared that view. “The country is not ready for it,” said 59-year-old Nerne Karinar, who was marching in a long flowing dress, and lamenting the small size of the parade. The January 2010 earthquake killed an estimated 300,000 people and left much of the capital in ruins. The United Nations says about 800,000 people are still living
in temporary settlement camps around the capital. Herve Saint-Preux, Carnival coordinator for the city of Port-au-Prince, said organizers had a budget that was only about 20 percent of what they spent in recent years, explaining why the event was so much smaller than in the past. Despite the problems facing Haiti, local officials felt it was important to carry on with the annual celebration, he said. “People want the Carnival and if we didn’t sponsor it they would do it on their own,” Saint-Preux said.

PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti (AP) — Raucous crowds danced in the streets of the Haitian capital Sunday as the city celebrated its first Carnival since last year’s devastating earthquake forced the cancellation of the annual festivities. The parade filed past the ruined facades of downtown shops, and the normally busy boulevard outside the collapsed National Palace was turned into a pedestrian zone for three days of revelry. Organizers erected a plywood wall to separate the Carnival zone from the huge Champ de Mars plaza, now a camp for tens of thousands of people made homeless by the quake. Many spectators grumbled that Carnival was much

But the rebels are in control of the city.” As fighting across Libya grew more fierce, the international community appeared to be struggling to put military muscle behind its demands for Gadhafi to give up power.

Search is on for missing US student in Spain MADRID (AP) — Police, family and friends have stepped up a search for a San Diego State University exchange student who went missing after visiting a nightclub in Madrid more than a week ago. Friends said 22-year-old Austin Bice was last seen outside Riviera concert venue and discotheque in the early hours of Feb. 26. The family he was staying with laid a plate for him at lunch later in the day and raised the alarm when they realized he was not in his bedroom. Friend Maria Garcia said Bice and his friends had been drinking at an apartment before going out to the club. A doorman suggested he rest a while before going in because he looked unwell. A friend stayed outside with him until Bice said he was going home. “He had left his credit cards and passport in his
room, and had not taken a winter coat, so we’re concerned because it was very cold that night,” said Garcia. Larry Bice, the student’s father, from Carlsbad, California, told the Associated Press he had flown to Madrid to help search for his son and that “the police are doing a great job, they have been very active.” Posters with recent photographs of Bice have been placed around the city seeking information. Bice’s father said his son was physically fit, tall — sixfoot-four (195 centimeters) — and had recently climbed Mt. Whitney with his father. Garcia said Bice had only been in Madrid for a month and a half, so was not yet fully acquainted with the area. She said that police and later friends had carefully combed the area around the club and found no trace of Bice.
Egypt’s new prime minister nominates Cabinet to chart country’s future CAIRO (AP) — Egypt’s prime minister-designate named a caretaker Cabinet on Sunday to help lead the country through reforms and toward free elections after the uprising that ousted President Hosni Mubarak. The changes include new faces in the key foreign, interior and justice ministries — a decision expected to be met with the approval of the proreform groups that led an 18day uprising that force Mubarak to step down on Feb. 11. Meanwhile, hundreds of protesters staging a rally outside the Interior Ministry in Cairo, which houses offices the hated State Security agency, was violently broken up. Protesters have over the past two days rallied outside
some dozen state security offices across the nation. In many cases, protesters stormed the buildings, including the main State Security headquarters in the Cairo suburb of Nasr City. The protests followed reports that agents were burning and shredding documents to destroy evidence that would incriminate them in possible cases of human rights abuses. On Sunday, army soldiers fired in the air and used stun guns to disperse a crowd that wanted to storm the State security offices inside the Interior Ministry in downtown Cairo. The protesters said they wanted to see for themselves whether the building had secret cells and to stop officers from destroying documents.

LAS VEGAS — Carl Edwards is off to the best start of his career, and credits “a gift” from Tony Stewart for his first win of the season. Stewart had the dominant car Sunday at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, but had to shuffle his strategy when a penalty on pit road crippled his chances. Edwards’ crew chief Bob Osborne took note of what Stewart was doing, then used it to get his own driver into Victory Lane. “That car was spectacular. He did a really good job driving it, too,” Edwards said of
Stewart. “That was really a gift for us for him to have that penalty. It may have been the difference in the race there.” Stewart was the leader when he was penalized for leaving his pit stall with the air hose still attached to his Chevrolet. Crew chief Darian Grubb had to call for a twotire stop to get Stewart back into the lead, the entire field saw it work, and Stewart was backed into a corner. He had to take four tires on his final stop, most everyone else took two, and the longer time spent on pit road shuffled him too far back to make it

Now the Seminoles are heading into the Atlantic Coast Conference tournament with a high seed and hopes that Chris Singleton could be close to returning from a broken right foot. Kitchen had 17 points and matched a career high with 13 rebounds to help Florida State beat North Carolina State 7262 on Sunday night in the fiRALEIGH

nal game of the ACC schedule. Bernard James added 14 points for the Seminoles (21-9, 11-5 ACC), who have won three of five with Singleton out. It marked only the third time in program history that Florida State has won 11 ACC games in a season and the first since winning 12 in 1993. “It’s not any time to start taking any bows,” FSU coach Leonard Hamilton said. “We feel like this particular team has a lot more room for improvement. We’re still basically an inexperienced team for the most part ... I’m hoping they’ll keep working and we’ll continue to keep improving.” The Seminoles were already locked into the No. 3

CAV HYSTERIA
Miller upsets Tiger BY GWEN KNAPP San Francisco Examiner
Tiger Woods should be very unhappy that Johnny Miller recently compared him to Mike Tyson. Buster Douglas should be absolutely miserable about it. Miller equated Douglas' shocking 1990 upset of Tyson to Woods' career-hobbling marital infidelities. Whatever his shortcomings as a boxer, Douglas did hold the heavyweight crown for eight months. He deserves better than to be equated with Woods' libido and the assorted strippers who blabbed about him. The only rational explanation for the analogy is that Miller watched "The Hangover" recently and couldn't get the scenes about Tyson's tiger out of his mind. Otherwise, the connection seems unaccountable. Or the NBC analyst thinks that a serially unfaithful spouse who periodically swears and spits on the golf course has something in common with a guy who did three years in prison for rape and chewed off part of an opponent's ear in the ring. That confusion would suggest another kind of hangover. To be fair, Miller also referenced Humpty Dumpty when discussing how Woods' career has crashed over the past 15 months. "It's a little bit like a Mike Tyson story, to be honest with you," Miller said on a special show presented by the Golf Channel. "Sort of invincible, scared everybody, performed quickly under pressure. Until a Buster Douglas came along ... his life crumbled." Actually, Tyson already was divorced when he lost to Douglas, not long after wife Robin Givens had accused him of abusing her. The two sat down for an interview with Barbara Walters, and Givens described the marriage as "pure hell" while Tyson sat beside her, a blank look on his face. Miller had a finer, professional point wrong. In the ring, Tyson was not feared in the same way that Woods unnerved his fellow golfers. Woods had every tool needed for greatness, and his focus, honed by his father, didn't waver for the first 12 years of his career. Tyson had raw power so overwhelming that elementary footwork and strategy would have sufficed. Stylistically, he has a lot more in common with John Daly than Woods. His fatherless childhood created personal chaos, which he duplicated in the ring.

Andrew Mitchell, third from left, and his coaching staff get into the action Saturday during the cavaliers’ 92-85 victory over Winston-Salem Prep.
Celebration of 1986 inspired North REENSBORO — It was Friday, Feb. 4 when we realized North Rowan had a boys basketball team that could go all the way to the state championship game. The Cavs’ 90-40 pummeling of East Montgomery that night was just part of a Cavalier celebration. At halftime, some famous names from 1986 entered the gym to be honored for their state title: guys named RONNIE Kitley and Kesler the GALLAGHER most noticeable faces. The old guys got to sit in the bleachers and watch new guys like 6-foot-7 sophomore Malik Ford score 18 points and throw down three consecutive whambam-jam slams. The new guys looked just as confident as the old guys used to. The feel in that gym was electric. Should’ve been in Fleming Gym on Saturday.

Fields, McCullough shine overseas BY MIKE LONDON mlondon@salisburypost.com
Area athletes update ... Shayla Fields (Salisbury, N.C. State) has scored 98 points in her last three outings in Iceland’s women’s pro basketball league. Fields scored 31 in her most recent outing. She’s averaging 24.4 points a game, fourth-best in the league. Bryan McCullough (North Rowan) may have been inspired by North’s Western Regional win against Winston-Salem Prep on Saturday. McCullough scored 32 points for his pro team in Romania the same day. He shot a Sam Starks-like 4-for-5 on 3s. Former West Rowan stars Donte Minter (Appalachian State) and Junior Hairston (Towson) teamed for 27 points to help their team win in The Netherlands on Saturday. Donald Rutherford (Catawba) continues to star in Denmark, where he’s averaging 14.4 points and 6.8 rebounds. Rutherford had 25 points and 12 boards in a win on Saturday. Carlos Dixon (South Rowan, Virginia Tech) is representing Rowan County well in Asia. Dixon had a 22point, eight-rebound effort on Saturday in Okinawa. Like McCullough, he went 4-for-5 from behind the arc. PRO GOLF Elliot Gealy (Salisbury) shot 72-70

when I came in,” said Mitchell, who coached Salisbury’s girls the previous two seasons. • While the big men were getting a lot of attention, Mitchell knows his guard play may have won this game. Jerran Foster came out hot, scorching North’s zone so Mitchell switched to man-toman. He put fresh Cav after fresh Cav on Foster, who scored 22 points, but missed a couple of big buckets late, including a layup after a steal. “We knew he could shoot,” Mitchell said. “We kept running five or six bodies at him so in the fourth quarter, he wouldn’t have the legs to make those shots. We felt comfortable that at some point, he’d wear down.” • Speaking of those guards, Mitchell said, “We have six of the best, to me, guards in the state.” Actually, it’s seven. When Sam Starks, Jordan Kimber, Pierre Givens, T.J. Bates, Amani Bates, Michael Connor and Michael Bowman attack, they leave defenders scratching their heads. “They don’t want to give up inside stuff to (Hargrave), who, in my opinion, could possibly be player of the year in the state.” • Speaking of Amani Bates, he only played seven minutes, but came up with one of the biggest steals of the game in the second overtime. “He begged to get in the game so he could make a difference,” Mitchell smiled. “He went in and produced. I love players who actually do something when they get in there.”
• The player of the game was sophomore T.J. Bates, who scored 22 points and created havoc on defense. “You just have to let T.J. go,” Mitchell said. “He’ll make one or two mistakes that makes you want to kill him. But he’ll come back and do four or five good things that makes you want to give him a hug.” • After Saturday’s win, Mitchell was already talking about everyone else. “Hopefully, we’ll share the paper with the Salisbury girls, the Livingstone men in the CIAA championship game and Catawba (his alma mater) in the semifinals of (the SAC) tournament,” he said. “What a great day for Rowan County.” The county went 2-2 with the high schools winning and colleges losing close decisions. • Mitchell was asked about preparation for Pender County. He said he’ll give the Cavaliers today off, then go to the weight room on Tuesday. On Wednesday, they’ll start preparing for Patriots. • The Cavs get to play in Reynolds Coliseum, the house that David Thompson built. Ford is bubbling with excitement. “I can’t even imagine how its going to feel FORD when we step onto the court,” he said. Imagine it, Malik.

Kenseth sure he’s not to blame Associated Press
RACE FROM 1B back to the front. Edwards, in a Roush Fenway Racing Ford, pulled away for the win, while Stewart, who dropped to 22nd after the four-tire stop, was unable to chase him down and finished second. “We had the fastest thing on the planet today and we just gave it away,” Stewart said. “It kills me to throw away a race like that.” That’s how Edwards felt the last two weeks. Edwards believed he should have won the first two races of the season, and had a hard time shaking the disappointment of not getting to Victory Lane before he arrived at Las Vegas. He was second in the season-opening Daytona 500 — he called winner Trevor Bayne to ask what he could have done differently on the last lap — then was certain he had the race-winning car last week at Phoenix before he was wrecked by Kyle Busch. The win on Sunday, his second victory at Las Vegas and the 19th of his career, now has many thinking Edwards is a solid championship contender. He closed last season with wins in the final two races, and is now third in the Sprint Cup Series standings, three points out of the lead. “This is the best start to a season that I’ve ever had,” he said. “You know, Daytona could have gone any way. But Phoenix, that was a very strong performance from everyone. They had a little bit of bad luck there.
Today, I felt like we had a solid top three car all day. That’s three different types of racetracks with success on all three, so I’m really excited.” Stewart wasn’t thinking about the big picture Sunday after finishing second to Edwards despite leading a race-high 163 laps. Stewart was in second place on the final restart of the Daytona 500, but faded to a 13th-place finish. He then led 59 laps last week in Phoenix, only to finish seventh. Although Sunday’s run moved him into the lead of the Sprint Cup Series standings, he was unable to take much solace in knowing he had cars capable of winning the first three races of the season. “That’s not in my makeup,” said Stewart, who was trying to cross Las Vegas off the list of only two active tracks where he’s yet to win a Cup race. “This was a big deal today, and when you lead that many laps and have a car that’s that fast and you lose it — I’m sure tomorrow when the emotion dies down we’ll look back and say it was a great weekend, but just, man, it does not sit good right now.” Juan Pablo Montoya finished third and was followed by Marcos Ambrose, Ryan Newman and Martin Truex Jr. Denny Hamlin was seventh, while Dale Earnhardt Jr., Kurt Busch and Brian Vickers rounded out the top 10. It was a rough day for most of the contenders, starting with pole-sitter Matt Kenseth’s flat tire early in the race. Las Vegas native Kyle Busch also had an early tire problem while running second to Stewart, and an engine failure ended his race and sent him to a 38th-place finish.

But then people come up to you and congratulate you. It was pretty cool. And the whole week was like that.” It had been almost two years since he’d won a race. Gordon said the reaction in the grandstands in Phoenix may have been the best of his 83 career victories. “It sent chills up my spine,” he said. “That was unbelievable. I don’t quite understand it to be honest with you — maybe a little bit of a sympathy vote.” • THE OTHER GORDON: — NASCAR placed Robby Gordon on probation Saturday for an incident involving Kevin Conway in the garage at Las Vegas. NASCAR officials didn't witness the run-in between the drivers, which was brought to NASCAR's attention by Conway, according to vice president of competition Robin Pemberton. He said the period of Gordon's probation has yet to be determined, and referred all questions to the two drivers. Conway declined to dis-

cuss the matter, but said he filed a police report Friday evening. • MORE INSPECTION: NASCAR has started inspecting cars during practice sessions as an answer to a new rule that links practice performance to qualifying. NASCAR this year is setting the qualifying order based on the lap times set in practice. So NASCAR called several teams in during Friday’s practice to be measured. In the past, the cars passed through the height sticks before qualifying. “We set that early on because it does set the lineup, the order in which you qualify, that we would spot-check cars,” said Robin Pemberton, NASCAR vice president of competition. “We did it last week and we’ll continue to do that just to make sure that everything is on the upand-up.” • TRUCK TEAM FOLDS: A lack of sponsorship has forced Brent Raymer Racing to suspend its Trucks Series team.

Kyle Busch’s car leaves the track in Las Vegas.
The NASCAR roundup ... LAS VEGAS — Matt Kenseth was confused when he learned Brian Vickers blamed him for last week’s wreck at Phoenix. After watching a replay of the 14car accident, he wasn’t any clearer on what Vickers was upset about. “I felt bad on the way home because I heard he was mad at me because somebody said he thought I caused the wreck and honestly I didn’t think I did,” Kenseth said. Kenseth said he sent Vickers a text message to discuss the accident, and never heard back. “I figured after I went home and watched the clip that I would get an apology,” he said. “But I never did. That’s OK. I don’t feel like I did anything wrong there.” The two cars may have slight contact, but replays showed Vickers lost control of his Toyota and triggered the chain-reaction accident. Vickers blamed Kenseth and aggressive driving for the carnage. “I felt like it was unnecessary and I’m sure it will come back to him,” he said after the accident. Kenseth wasn’t worried about it at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, where he started on the pole for Sunday’s race. It’s just the fifth pole of Kenseth’s 12-year career. • STILL CELEBRATING: Jeff Gordon had already planned a trip to the “The Tonight Show” before he won last weekend’s race at Phoenix. But when he did the pre-interview for the show, he was in the worst slump of his career. “They’re like, ‘What’s a funny story? What’s been going on? We know you haven’t won. Boy, it would be great if you could win before you get here,’” Gordon said. He did that Sunday in Phoenix, ending his 66-race winless streak then jetting off to California to attend post-Oscar parties with

Freshman Brielle Blaire was impressive in the regional.
GREENSBORO — Western Regional MVP Ashia Holmes, a senior guard, is headed to her third straight 2A state championship game, but that special feeling in your heart and stomach never changes. “Oh, yeah,” she said, “it’s still very, very exciting. The goal is always to win, and we’ve been successful.” The Hornets (26-1), for all their talent, don’t have it easy. If they win, well, they were supposed to. If they lose, people are shocked and wonder who’s not getting along. They play with a bull’s-eye on their jerseys every single night. It’s the only program in the state where anything less than a state championship is considered a disappointment. Somehow they keep their focus, keep pushing, keep getting better. First-year coach Chris McNeil has done a masterful job, and this team is right up there with the undefeated teams the Hornets had in 2004 and 2010. This may be the best of all — it’s the only one that’s had Brielle Blaire. One game to go — the titlegame rematch with East Bladen that’s been anticipated for months. EB (30-1) routed Graham in the Eastern Regional final 71-37 and still has the same stars — Courtney Melvin and Jazzmine Kemp. Salisbury’s Jessica Heilig fights for the basketball in heavy traffic.

Roddick lifts United States past Chile in Davis Cup action Assoociated Press
SANTIAGO, Chile — Andy Roddick defeated Paul Capdeville 3-6, 7-6 (2), 6-3, 6-3 Sunday, giving the United States an insurmountable 31 lead in the Davis Cup first-round tie against Chile. Roddick is 12-0 in matches that can clinch a Davis Cup tie for the United States. The Americans will play Spain in the quarterfinal round in July in the U.S. The Spaniards beat Belgium this weekend. The No. 165 Capdeville was behind a break in the first set when he broke serve in the sixth and
eighth games to go ahead 5-3 and serve out the set in the ninth game. The No. 8-ranked Roddick patiently waited for his opportunity to pull away from Capdeville in the second set tiebreaker, taking a 5-0 lead. Capdeville had little to give in the third set, but put up a fight in the fourth.
nFl laBoR NEW YORK — With five more days and nights — at least — to come to an agreement, the NFL and the players’ union might find money off the top is not the bottom line.
The owners’ request that about $2 billion of total revenues be deducted before they split the rest with the players has been a sticking point ever since 2008. That’s when the owners opted out of the current collective bargaining agreement, which would have expired last Thursday if not for two extensions. The deadline now is at the end of Friday, and a compromise on that figure — the owners already deduct about $1 billion for operating expenses from the $9 billion overall take — might be easier than reaching accord on expanding the regular season to 18 games or
several other issues. • MILWAUKEE — Mike McCarthy embraced Green Bay’s culture from the first day he arrived as coach of the Packers. After his first Super Bowl championship, he’ll stay in the NFL’s smallest market for years to come. McCarthy signed a new multiyear contract less than a month after the Packers beat the Pittsburgh Steelers 31-25 for the NFL title.

Wake Forest loses to Boston College Associated Press
BOSTON —Boston College coasted to a victory 84 over Wake Forest BC 68 on Sunday and Wake quickly put the game behind to focus on its upcoming opponent in the Atlantic Coast Conference tournament: Wake Forest, again. “The games are going to be totally different,” BC coach Steve Donahue said after the Eagles beat Wake Forest 84-68 in the regular-season fi-
nale. “Don’t expect it to be as easy.” Corey Raji scored 21 points and Biko Paris had 19 as the Eagles tried to bolster their case for an NCAA tournament berth. BC (19-11, 9-7 Atlantic Coast Conference) finished fifth in the ACC, earning a firstround matchup with the Demon Deacons (8-23, 1-15) in Greensboro, N.C. on Thursday. “It kind of reminds me of the NBA when we were in playoffs,” said Wake Forest coach Jeff Bzdelik, who was head coach of the Denver Nuggets for 21/2 seasons. “Listen: I

duke coach Joanne Mccallie cuts down a net after the Blue devils beat UNc. tournament champion since North Carolina won the event four straight years beginning in 2005. The Blue Devils, who won the tournament for the seventh time, enter their 17th straight NCAA tournament on a six-game winning streak. “What we did this weekend was just another step,” center Krystal Thomas said. “Now we have more steps to come with the NCAA tournament.” McCallie led Duke to its fourth ACC title game in four seasons at the school, with Jasmine Thomas her point guard all four years. This time, the Blue Devils ran away with it down the stretch against a North Carolina team that appeared gassed. The sixth-seeded Tar Heels, who were trying to become the first ACC team to win four tournament games in four days, were outrebounded 38-27 and allowed Duke to shoot 46 percent. UNC didn’t allow any of its other three tournament opponents to shoot better than 36 percent. “It’s hard to play four days in a row like that, but we put ourselves in that position,” coach Sylvia Hatchell said. “If we were maybe a little fresher, we might have been able to pull it out.”
The college basketball roundup ... ST. LOUIS — Aaron Carter scored 15 points and Indiana State held top seed Missouri State to 30.5 percent shooting in a 60-56 victory in the Missouri Valley Conference tournament final on Sunday. Jake Kelly hit two clinching free throws with 1.4 seconds to go for the third-seeded Sycamores (20-13), who shot 50 percent and earned their first NCAA tournament berth since 2001. Indiana State has won five in a row and knocked off second seed Wichita State in the semifinals. Kyle Weems, the conference player of the year, was held to 11 points on 3for-16 shooting and got his last basket came with 11:12 to go in the first half. Jerome Mallett had 17 points and eight rebounds but was the only starter shooting above 50 percent for Missouri State (25-8), which shot below 40 percent in all three tournament games. College of Charleston 63, Furman 58 CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. — Andrew Goudelock scored 31 points to lead the College of Charleston to a win over Furman on Sunday night in the Southern Conference tournament semifinals. Antwaine Wiggins added 10 points,
N.C. STATE FROM 1B seed for this week’s tournament in Greensboro, so there wasn’t a lot at stake for them in this game. Florida State led for the first 30 minutes, scoring the first seven points and leading by 13 in the first half before taking a 34-25 halftime lead. Then, after the Wolfpack (15-15, 511) made a push to take a one-point lead with about 8 minutes left, Kitchen scored a pair of baskets to put the Seminoles ahead for good. “I feel like we have done pretty good without our best player,” Kitchen said. “(If Singleton returns) I hope he can bring what he (brought) all year long. Hopefully he can pick up where he left
Paul suffers concussion in victory over Cavaliers Associated Press
The NBA roundup ... CLEVELAND — Chris Paul left the court on a stretcher and suffered a concussion in the New Orleans Hornets’ 96-81 victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers on Sunday night. The four-time All-Star lost the ball in the third quarter driving into the lane as he was defended by Ramon Sessions and Samardo Samuels. As Paul tried to retrieve the ball, he hit his forehead on Sessions’ right shoulder and immediately fell to the court. Paul stayed on the floor as trainers from both teams attended to him. Paul, who was moving his legs and feet, was placed on a flat board and a brace was put on his neck. Players from both teams surrounded him. He was wheeled to the locker room and gave a thumbs up to the crowd as he left the court. He was taken to Cleveland Clinic for precautionary tests, then rejoined the team for its flight to Chicago. He will miss Monday’s game. David West scored 23 points, and Paul had 13 points and 11 assists in 26 minutes. Lakers 99, Spurs 83 SAN ANTONIO — Kobe Bryant scored 26 points, Pau Gasol had 21 and Los Angeles embarrassed NBA-best San Antonio for its seventh consecutive victory. What was billed as a potential Western Conference finals preview was a blowout from
ent mood than last year, when BC had no chance for an at-large berth in the NCAAs and thought: “If you don’t win the (conference) tournament, what exactly are you playing for?” Travis McKie scored 21 points and Gary Clark added 14 for Wake Forest, which lost its last 10 games — all but one of them by at least 14 points — to finish 12th in the 12-team conference. “It’s definitely been a tough year,” Clark said. “Nobody expects to be last. It’s definitely been a try-
ing year.” Wake led 21-15 with 14 minutes left in the first half before Boston College scored 18 of the next 20 points to take a 10-point lead. It was 44-33 after Wake’s Carson Desrosiers made a three-point play to open the second half, then the Eagles scored 17 of the next 19 points. BC returned to a winning record in the first season under former Cornell coach Steve Donahue. He replaced Al Skinner, who was fired after the Eagles missed the NCAA tournament.

GREENSBORO — Duke c o a c h Duke 81 Joanne P. UNC 66 M c C a l l i e keeps her team hungry in an unconventional way: by winning more championships. Her eighth-ranked Blue Devils claimed their second straight Atlantic Coast Conference tournament title Sunday, pulling away late to defeat No. 19 North Carolina 8166 behind 21 points from tournament MVP Jasmine Thomas. “A lot of people think these types of things get teams complacent. I think totally the opposite,” McCallie said. “When teams like this start cutting down nets and having fun and seeing balloons and enjoying their teammates, I think they want it more. I think it really builds the hunger.” Freshman Haley Peters added 14 points and Karima Christmas had 13 for the topseeded Blue Devils (29-3), who held the rival Tar Heels (25-8) scoreless for a critical span of 61⁄2 minutes down the stretch. Jessica Breland scored 27 points for North Carolina, and her free throw put the Tar Heels up 54-53 with 9:28 left. Duke then reeled off 15 straight points as part of a 202 run to take command and beat its top Tobacco Road rival for the second time in eight days. Allison Vernerey finished with 10 points for Duke, the first team to repeat as ACC
expect to win. Every time you take the court, I expect to win. If you think that (I don’t), you’re disrespecting me.” Joe Trapani scored 17 and Reggie Jackson had 14 points for BC, which won its last three games and could reach the 20-win mark with a win in the first round of the conference tournament. “We believe we have a chance — everybody in the locker room — to win it. And we have a chance to make the NCAA tournament,” said Jackson, who acknowledged it is a differ-
the start. And the Lakers likely relished this rout after losing twice to the Spurs, including on Antonio McDyess’ memorable buzzer tip-in last month. Tony Parker led the Spurs with 14 points. He was their only starter in double figures. Bulls 87, Heat 86 MIAMI — Derrick Rose scored 27 points, Luol Deng capped an 18-point effort with two free throws that put Chicago ahead for good, and the Bulls handed Miami its fourth straight loss. Carlos Boozer scored 12 and Joakim Noah added 11 for the Bulls, who moved a game ahead of Miami into outright possession of second place in the Eastern Conference and beat the Heat for the third time this season. LeBron James scored 26 points, Chris Bosh added 23 and Dwyane Wade had 20 for the Heat. James and Wade both missed shots that would have won it for Miami in the final 8 seconds. Grizzlies 104, Mavericks 103 DALLAS — Zach Randolph made a high-arching 17-footer with 0.3 seconds left, lifting Memphis over Dallas. The Grizzlies erased an 18point deficit shortly before halftime, then polished off the comeback with a wild finish. Memphis went ahead with 14.3 seconds left when Shane Battier caught a blocked shot under the basket and flicked in a reverse layup. Then Dallas — which had won eight straight and 18 of 19 — went
and Trent Wiedeman had 10 points and 12 rebounds for the Cougars (24-9), who will face defending champion Wofford in the championship on Monday. Wofford 86 W. Carolina 72 CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. — Noah Dahlman scored 18 points, and Cameron Rundles and Jamar Diggs added 17 apiece as Wofford defeated Western Carolinaon Sunday night in the Southern Conference tournament’s first semifinal. Western Carolina (18-15) scored the first four points of the second half to pull within five, 45-40, but the Terriers answered with a 7-0 run that culminated with a Rundles 3-pointer at the 15:35 mark. Georgia Tech 66, Miami 57 ATLANTA — Iman Shumpert had 19 points, Lance Storrs led Georgia Tech’s 3-point assault and the Yellow Jackets beat Miami on Sunday in the final game at Alexander Memorial Coliseum. Storrs had five 3-pointers for 15 points and Shumpert and Jason Morris, who had 11 points, each added three long-range shots as Georgia Tech overcame a 10-point deficit in the second half. The Yellow Jackets had 12 3-pointers, one shy of their season high. Georgia Tech (13-17 overall, 5-11 At-
lantic Coast Conference) finished a disappointing regular season under coach Paul Hewitt with its first two-game winning streak since January. Adrian Thomas had 14 points and Durand Scott had 13 for Miami (18-13, 610 ACC), which was hurt by 21 turnovers. Ohio State 93, Wisconsin 65 COLUMBUS, Ohio — Jon Diebler lived up to his “3-bler” nickname by hitting 7 of 8 shots behind the arc while scoring 27 points, leading top-ranked Ohio State to an emotion-laden 93-65 victory over No. 10 Wisconsin on Sunday. Freshman Jared Sullinger added 22 points, William Buford had 18 and David Lighty 13 for the Buckeyes (29-2, 16-2 Big Ten), who got back at the Badgers (23-7, 13-5) for a painful loss a month ago. Bradley fires Les Jim Les was fired Sunday as Bradley's basketball coach, ending a nine-year run that featured a stunning upset of Kansas in the first round of the 2006 NCAA tournament. The Braves were only 12-20 this season, including 4-14 in the Missouri Valley Conference. Les played at Bradley and for seven seasons in the NBA before moving into coaching. He was 154-140 overall with a 74-88 mark in the Missouri Valley.
off. If not, we’re not focusing on that too much. We’re focusing on what we have right now.” Hamilton said he didn’t know if Singleton would be ready for the ACC tournament, though he said the 6-foot-9 junior hasn’t had any setbacks while doing some noncontact work since he was hurt on Feb. 12 against Virginia. He said Singleton wouldn’t return unless he’s “completely healed.” “We’re being extremely careful,” Hamilton said, “but it looks like it’s getting a lot closer than I thought it would be at this stage.” As for N.C. State, the question was whether this was the final home game for fifth-year Wolfpack coach Sidney Lowe. Picked to finish fourth in the ACC, N.C. State closed with four losses in five games to fall to the No. 10 seed
in Greensboro. Lowe entered with an 86-76 overall record while going just 25-54 in ACC play. Worse, he hasn’t made the NCAA tournament after inheriting a program coming off five straight NCAA trips. There have been a handful of exciting moments, from an upset of highly ranked rival North Carolina and a surprise run to the ACC tournament championship in his first season to an upset of eventual national champion Duke last year. Yet those moments proved fleeting. And as fans saw their preseason optimism fade into that all-too-familiar sinking feeling as this season wore on, there were entire sections of empty red seats in the upper end zones of the RBC Center while the vibe in the building dulled from excitement to resignation.

Vince Carter led Phoenix with 29 points but missed two of three free throws with the chance to put the Suns ahead with 17.4 seconds left. Steve Nash missed a potential tying 3-pointer after that.
The NHL roundup ... NEW YORK — Ryan Callahan scored a career-high four goals and five points and the New York Rangers finally found some success at home in a dominating 7-0 victory over the sliding Philadelphia Flyers on Sunday. Callahan, who had nine previous two-goal games and two four-points outbursts in the NHL, scored twice in the first period when New York built a 2-0 lead, added another in the second when the edge grew to 4-0, and netted his 20th of the season in the third with a goal off his skate. New York got top-line forward Marian Gaborik back in the lineup for the first time in seven games following a concussion. He didn’t get on the score sheet, and it didn’t matter. Mats Zuccarello added two goals and Artem Anisimov also scored for the Rangers, who snapped a four-game losing streak at home while wearing their road

Blake Comeau tied it for New York with 3:42 left in regulation, firing a loose puck from the low slot past Martin Brodeur for his 18th goal this season.
Sabbatini holds on in Honda Classic Associated Press
The golf roundup ... PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. — Rory Sabbatini began the day with a big lead, turned back a challenge on the back nine and shot an even-par 70 Sunday for a one-stroke victory in the Honda Classic. Sabbatini sank a 2-foot par putt on No. 18 to finish at 9-under 271. He earned his first PGA Tour title since the 2009 Byron Nelson Championship and sixth overall. Y.E. Yang birdied the final hole for a closing 66 to finish 8 under. Jerry Kelly, who played with Sabbatini and Yang in the final threesome, shot a 67 and took third at 7 under. Sabbatini started the final round ahead by five shots, and was still in front by five when he finished No. 8. But Yang was with-
in one stroke seven holes later, thanks to birdies on Nos. 12 and 14 and two bogeys by Sabbatini. Nationwide BOGOTA — Brenden Pappas won the Bogota Open on Sunday when lightning wiped out the third round, reducing the Nationwide Tour event to 36 holes. The 40-year-old South African had rounds of 67 and 66 to finish at 9 under at Bogota Country Club. He earned $108,000 in official money, but is credited with an unofficial victory because the players failed to complete 54 holes in the scheduled 72-hole tournament.

Readers want review of home remedies Dear Dr. Gott: In a recent column, you referred to two possible cures for toenail fungus other than menthol salve. One was an over-the-counter product, and the other was a soaking agent. Could you please relate what these two potential cures are? Dear Reader: The article DR. PETER to which you GOTT are probably referring can be found on my website at www.AskDrGottMD.com/nail -fungus-home-remedies. There are many home remedies for nail fungus, some more successful (based on reader input) than others. I believe one of the products you are referring to is Miranel, which is available overthe-counter at Walgreens. It is applied directly to the toenail and surrounding skin daily using the applicator brush provided. Another product that has been successful is decolorized iodine, also known as white iodine. This product may also improve weak, brittle nails. As for soaking agents, I have received several letters regarding white vinegar. Some people soak a cotton ball and then apply it to the affected nail several times a day, while others simply dilute the vinegar with warm water and soak the whole foot. This may also help with athlete’s foot. Others have chosen to use diluted bleach in a similar
manner. Many years ago, I recommended a foot soak using Pau d’Arco tea. The feet have to be soaked several times a day. I have since stopped recommending it because the above remedies appear to be readily available, easier, less expensive and provide better results. Dear Dr. Gott: Can you please reprint your colon cocktail and grape arthritis drink recipes? I clipped them out but seem to have misplaced them when I moved. Thank you. Dear Reader: My colon cocktail is simply equal portions of applesauce, bran and prune juice. Take 1 or 2 tablespoons each morning to prevent and/or remedy constipation. Be sure to store any extra in the refrigerator. It is best to prepare it in small batches because it lasts only up to three or four days once mixed. The arthritis drink is 8 ounces of purple grape juice mixed with 1 tablespoon of liquid pectin. This can be used up to three times a day until symptoms are under control, and then most users continue with a maintenance dose of one glass per day. Some readers have used apple or light grape juice. Another popular remedy for arthritis is a castor-oil rub. The oil is massaged onto the affected joint once or twice a day. For those who prefer a warming or cooling effect, Castiva may be preferable because it is made with a castor-oil base and warming capsaicin. Dear Dr. Gott: Some time ago, you mentioned a specific shampoo that seemed to
have hair-restorative properties. I forgot to write down the name of that shampoo and would like to know if you remember it. Thanks. Dear Reader: You are likely referring to Tresemme Silk Protein Healthy Volume Shampoo and Tresemme Vitamin E Conditioner. Other readers have also had success with other types of Tresemme shampoos and conditioners that contain biotin and B vitamins. Other remedies include supplemental biotin, folic acid and/or B complex (which contains all the B vitamins). Over-the-counter Rogaine may also be beneficial but is relatively expensive, and any results achieved will reverse if the product is stopped. Readers who are interested in learning more about home remedies can order my Health Reports “Dr. Gott’s Compelling Home Remedies” and “More Compelling Home Remedies” by sending a selfaddressed stamped No. 10 envelope and a $2 check or money order per report made payable to Newsletter and mailed to Newsletter, P.O. Box 167, Wickliffe, OH 440920167. Be sure to mention the title(s) or print an order form off my website at www.AskDrGottMD.com. Dr. Peter H. Gott is a retired physician and the author of several books, including “Live Longer, Live Better,” “Dr. Gott’s No Flour, No Sugar Diet” and “Dr. Gott’s No Flour, No Sugar Cookbook,” which are available at most bookstores or online.

Monday, March 7 You’re the type of person who always wants to get along well with everyone, yet in the coming year you might let yourself be less careful about how you handle tough people. In some cases you’ll win, in others you won’t. Pisces (Feb. 20-March 20) — If you’re honest with yourself, you’ll realize that self-discipline is always essential in the management of your funds. The minute you let your guard down, wasteful spending is likely. Aries (March 21-April 19) — Regardless of how right you think you are, be cooperative instead of insistent upon others doing things your way. If you’re correct, events will have people coming around to your view. Taurus (April 20-May 20) — It isn’t likely you’ll have much luck in getting others to do things your way, so if there is something important at stake, handle it on your own. It’s the only sure shot to getting what you want. Gemini (May 21-June 20) — There is a good chance you’ll be asked to take on some additional responsibilities, but don’t think you have to do so just because it’s requested of you. Have your excuses ready. Cancer (June 21-July 22) — If you hope to fulfill an ambitious objective, be prepared to be more tenacious than a hungry terrier. Be prepared for the worst, and it won’t seem so tough. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Should your position or opinion be challenged or opposed, you’re not apt to yield your ground too easily, even though you might know in your heart that you could be wrong. Try to be more flexible. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Don’t allow your desires for instant gratification to cause you embark on a spending spree. Do so only when your wallet is bulging and you have money to burn. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — It’s your basic nature to be a rather optimistic person, yet you could have a tendency to be nothing but negative when assessing matters at hand, if you do so in a sour frame of mind. Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — Instead of pushing yourself to the end of your tether, get help when you find the workload getting heavier than you’re capable of handling on your own. Sagittarius (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — You’re not likely to find yourself being too popular if you can’t resist trying to remake friends in your own image. Accept your pals, warts and all, and they’ll do the same with you. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — If you fail to honor a promise you made to a friend just because you simply don’t feel like doing it, it’ll prey on your mind all day long. For your own peace of conscience, stand by your word. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — Be careful which friend you go to for an honest evaluation of something important, because a negative person is likely to see only the down side and could steer you accordingly.

Which discard do you take first? BY PHILLIP ALDER United Feature Syndicate
Emo Phillips said, “At my lemonade stand I used to give the first glass away free and charge five dollars for the second glass. The refill contained the antidote.” If you bet five dollars that you can make this sixspade contract, you had better know which side suit to play on first. West leads the heart queen. You win with your ace and cash the two top spades, East discarding a club. How would you continue? Partner’s three hearts was a transfer, promising five-plus spades and zeroplus points. You control-bid
(cue-bid) four clubs to show a maximum with four-card spade support and the club ace. When partner expressed slam interest by control-bidding in return, you bid what
you hoped you could make. A grand slam was unlikely facing a passed partner. You have to discard your heart losers before West can ruff in. It looks obvious to cash your clubs first, but that is wrong. You must find West with at least three diamonds, so you should play off dummy’s top diamonds. When West shows up with four diamonds, cross to your hand in clubs, discard one heart on the diamond jack, then take the clubs, shaking the last heart as West ruffs in too late. Phillip Alder is teaching during the American Contract Bridge League’s Sectional at Sea from July 19 to 26 aboard Cunard’s Queen Elizabeth. The cruise starts and ends in Southampton, England, and goes to the Norwegian fjords and the North Cape. Details are at www.phillipalderbridge.com.
Sheen files: A crazy week for NBC’s Jeff Rossen NEW YORK (AP) — Here’s something for Jeff Rossen to ponder after a crazy week: Is being called a “rock star” by Charlie Sheen good or bad for his career in television journalism? Rossen, an NBC News correspondent who works chiefly for the “Today” show, played a prominent role in the actor’s bizarre media tour to bash his bosses for suspending “Two and a Half Men,” and explain a lifestyle of drugs and “goddesses.” Andrea Canning of ABC News, CNN’s Piers Morgan and radio star Howard Stern also spent extensive time with Sheen.
It was Rossen, however, whom Sheen later described as a “rock star” whose interview was “pure gold.” Sheen told Morgan live on CNN that Rossen was awesome and should be a guest on his show. “I think what he meant by calling me a rock star is that I kept my word to him,” said Rossen, who joined NBC News in 2008 after working for seven years at ABC’s New York City station. Rossen had been trying to get Sheen to come on the “Today” show since shortly after the actor trashed a room in New York’s Plaza Hotel last fall. He said he spoke frequently with Sheen’s management team and met the actor
on the “Two and a Half Men” set in November. Sheen subsequently spoke to Rossen for background on other stories, but didn’t go on camera until last weekend. Besides taped interviews that appeared on “Today” Monday and Tuesday of last week, Rossen convinced the actor to get up — or stay up — for a 4:30 a.m. PT live interview the morning after he lost custody of his twins. Rossen didn’t pull punches. He asked Sheen about his drug use and whether he provided a healthy home environment for his children and his role in making the future of television’s most popular sitcom shaky.

Salisburry y Today: Tuesday: Wednesday: -
Much of the Eastern Seaboard will start to see drier weather conditions Monday as the storm system over the area exits. The cold front extending from the Mid-Atlantic through the Southeast will move into the western Atlantic as associated low pressure climbs northeastward up the New England coast. Ample moisture over the area will combine with this low pressure system to fuel more light to moderate rain with periods of heavy rainfall and thunderstorms in the Northeast and New England areas. Mild temperatures and significant rainfall may promote rapid snow melt with sharp rises on area rivers and streams. Thus, expect areas from southern New England through the Central Appalachians to remain under various Flood Watches and Warnings into Monday morning. In addition to rain, bands of snow showers and heavy, wet snow will develop from Maine through the Lower Great Lakes. The interior of Maine will see the worst of these conditions with snow mixed with sleet and freezing rain at times. Snow and sleet accumulations in the area from Sunday afternoon through Monday afternoon are expected to reach between 14 to 20 inches. This area may also see up to a quarter inch of ice accumulations. Elsewhere in the East, waves of energy in the Upper Midwest will bring light to moderate snowfall to the Upper Mississippi Valley and light rain to the Mid-Mississippi Valley. A more significant snow event may occur in the Upper Mississippi Valley on Tuesday. In the West, a developing trough of low pressure will fuel more low elevation rain and high elevation snow in northern and central California and the southern Pacific Northwest. Meanwhile, a Pacific cold front will move through the Great Basin with rain, snow, and strong winds. Snow is expected to be significant over parts of northern and central Nevada. Heavy mountain snow is also expected across much of Utah, with rain changing over to snow across the western and central valleys.
