Bargain hunting for books 26 workers take city’s buyout offer BY EMILY FORD eford@salisburypost.com
SALISBURY — To help close a $2.7 million budget gap, city officials asked about 75 employees to consider retiring early, with an incentive. Twenty-six workers took the city up on the offer. Their departure will help save the city $2 million in the next fiscal year, which begins July 1. The city also has eliminated 47 full-time and part-time positions, most of which were vacant due to a rolling hiring freeze. Four city workers have been laid off. The city has spent almost

Literature lovers scour stacks at library’s book sale BY MARK WINEKA mwineka@salisburypost.com
ALISBURY — The large shopping bag at Sarah Hodges’ feet continued to get heavier as she filled it up with books Friday morning. Is this the norm, when she comes to the Rowan Public Library Book Sale? “Oh, yeah,” she said. “I can’t carry it. I’m usually dragging them out.” Voracious readers, collectors, book dealers, homeschoolers and bargain hunters filled the Stanback and Hurley rooms of the library Friday for hardback and paperback books, audiotapes and VHS tapes priced from 50 cents to $2. “I come here every time the books are on sale,” said Hodges, a China Grove resident. Hodges was looking paticularly for cookbooks and non-fiction works in general. Her own home is filled to the brim with books — old friends, she acknowledges, that she just can’t part with. “I’ve willed them to my grandchildren,” she said. “In our family, books are

important.” Rowan Public Library’s sale features books and other media that have been taken out of county circulation in favor of new stuff. Materials not sold are later donated to various agencies, such as the Salvation Army. (Friends of the Library has its annual sale in the fall.) Lynn Denison and Bev Gaston coordinate things for Rowan Public Library. Movers tote down the scores of boxes of books stored in a second-floor attic (the old History Room). “That really saves our backs,” Denison said of the help. The sale continues from 9 a.m.-4 p.m. today and 10 a.m.-2 p.m. Monday, when patrons can fill a plastic shopping bag for only $2. “There are really some great deals,” Denison said. Gaston added, “A good book is hard to find anywhere else at this price.” The Rev. Joseph LaFrage and his son, David, hit the mother lode Friday morning when they found bound sets of “National Ge-

$22,500 on early retirement severance packages, said John Sofley, the finance director who will become the city’s second assistant city manager. The incentives were paid from the current budget, Sofley said. The city offered two options to employees willing to retire early: • Severance pay equal to three months’salary. • Paid health insurance, with conditions. While the severance pay option was cut and dried, the health insurance incentive was more complicated.
SALISBURY — When Ray Franks was a kid, he didn’t like reading. Then somebody stuck a comic book in front of him. The heroes, the adventure, the artwork — they caught his imagination and showed him the written word didn’t have to be stodgy and cold. A lot of people who love to read say comics helped ignite that fire, and that’s what Free Comic Book Day is all about. As Franks, who owns the Comic Monstore, puts it, the event’s purpose is “to celebrate comic books and hopefully get some new readers interested in the American art form that is comic books.” Comic Monstore will host the local Free Comic Book Day today from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. The shop is at 813 S. Jake Alexander Blvd., in the Magic Mart shopping center. Free Comic Book Day started in 2002 as an effort to attract new readers into independent comic book shops. Each year, comics publishers offer free issues of top titles and special editions created specifically for this event. Comics publishers are providing 37 titles free this year, including special editions featuring Marvel’s “Thor” — a
movie version of which opened in theaters Friday — and D.C.’s “Green Lantern,” which hits the silver screen in June. Other offerings range from the cartoonish “Darkwing Duck” to the mystical “Elric” to Liquid Comics’ “Silver Scorpion,” which centers on a disabled superhero created by disabled students from America and Syria. Franks says every title being offered is kid friendly. He says, however, the medium is not just for children. He counts two local doctors among his regular customers along with an older man who has been collecting “Green Lantern” since he was a child. And while spandex-andcape comics have been around since Superman first leaped a tall building in the 1930s, today’s books — comics and graphic novels — represent a range of material and styles. “Modern comic books actually have very good stories,” Franks said. “There’s a lot of compelling writing in comics. ... Best-selling authors write comic books now.” Franks and other comic shop owners hope Free Comic Book Day attracts people who might not know everything they offer. In the Mon-

Al-Qaida vows revenge for Osama bin Laden’s death CAIRO (AP) — Al-Qaida vowed to keep fighting the United States and avenge the death of Osama bin Laden, which it acknowledged for the first time Friday in an Internet statement apparently designed to convince followers that it will remain vigorous and intact even after its founder’s demise. Al-Qaida’s plots are usually largescale and involve planning over months or even years. But Western intelligence officials say they are seeing increased chatter about cheap, small-scale attacks — perhaps by individuals or small extremist groups inspired to take revenge for the killing. “USA, you will pay!” chanted more than 100 participants in a pro-

bin Laden protest outside the U.S. Embassy in London on Friday. A Western intelligence official said no concrete threat has emerged so far that authorities considered credible. “There have been mentions of shootings, bombings and random violence, though it is not surprising, given bin Laden’s death,” the official said, speaking on condition of anonymity. Authorities in the U.S. and Europe chose not to elevate threat levels. Interpol has asked law enforcement agencies in 188 countries to be on alert for retaliatory attacks. Communities have been warned to report anything suspicious. Embassies and some American businesses have added new security measures.

Despite the Internet chatter, reaction in the Islamic world to bin Laden’s death has been relatively muted compared with the rage that he long inspired, raising questions about his relevance in the Middle East — a region that has been changed by a wave of pro-democracy uprisings. The al-Qaida statement, entitled “You lived as a good man, you died as a martyr,” did not name a successor to bin Laden. His deputy, Ayman al-Zawahri, is now the most prominent figure in the group and a likely contender to take his place. “The blood of the holy warrior sheik, Osama bin Laden, God bless him, is too precious to us and to all Muslims to go in vain,” the statement

said. “We will remain, God willing, a curse chasing the Americans and their agents, following them outside and inside their countries.” “Soon, God willing, their happiness will turn to sadness,” it said, “their blood will be mingled with their tears.” Although the statement’s authenticity could not be independently confirmed, it was considered to be authentic. It was posted on militant websites Friday by the al-Fajr Center, al-Qaida’s online media distribution network, and the writing style was typical for al-Qaida. The statement was issued in the name of the organization’s General Command

Driver escapes after high-speed chase portedly sped up, and the officer pursued. The chase continued on Fisher, Ellis and Caldwell streets and Lincolnton Road before reaching Jake Alexander Boulevard, where the Mustang turned onto Julian Road and headed south on I-85. It took the Lane Street exit in Kannapolis but then drove back onto the interstate. Traffic got more congested as the chase reached Concord city limits, and the officer reported losing sight of the car around 3:15 a.m. at I-85 exit 58. Police are investigating.

SALISBURY — A Salisbury man was arrested Wednesday after sheriff’s deputies say he was aggressive with emergency responders trying to help him. Rowan County EMS responded to a 911 call at 385 Mahaffey Drive in Salisbury where Terry Lee Kesler, 48, had a severe cut in his abdomen. According to the report from the Rowan County Sheriff’s office, he would not cooperate with EMS staff or comply with their requests. Deputies were called around 1:30 p.m. to assist. When they arrived, Kesler reportedly became aggressive toward the officers and medical responders. Kesler, of 820 Park Ave. in Salisbury,was arrested and charged with resisting, delaying or obstructing a public officer. He was treated in the emergency room of Rowan Regional Medical Center before being taken to the Rowan County Detention Center and given a $2,500 bond. In other Rowan County Sheriff’s Office reports for Wednesday: • Nathan Scott Wagner, 17, of 645 Joe Lynch Road, was arrested and charged with resisting, delaying or obstructing a public officer.

Kenyan student scores perfect 4.0 grade BY LAURIE D. WILLIS Livingstone College News Service
For some young adults, going to college out of state would be too difficult. Try out of continent. Winnie Chepchumba, 24, is from Kenya in East Africa. But for the past four years she didn’t let missing her family stop her from working hard to earn a bachelor’s degree in accounting. When she marches into Alumni Memorial Stadium this morning with fellow members of the Class of 2011, she’ll do so as salutatorian and with a perfect 4.0 GPA. “I feel great about being the salutatorian,” Chepchumba said. “I’m very proud of my accomplishments.” Chepchumba transferred to Livingstone College after one year at Central Connecticut State University. She left Central Connecticut because it was just too cold for her in New England. Even though Salisbury offered a much warmer climate, Chepchumba wasn’t sure Livingstone would be a good fit at first.
WINNIE CHEPCHUMBA “Initially it was too small for me, but then I liked the kind of close attention the teachers give students,” Chepchumba said. It also helped that she came to Livingstone on a cross country/track and field scholarship because participating in sports helped her make friends. Justin Davis, head cross country and track and field coach, said Chepchumba is the type of student-athlete coach-

es dream of. “Winnie is a very, very humble person,” Davis said. “She has been a tremendous blessing to coach, and very easy to coach. I don’t have to do a lot of work to get her where she needs to be. She has been All-CIAA for three, consecutive years in cross country. “She practices hard and anytime she misses practice it’s for something school-related,” Davis continued. “She makes me look good. She’s got the highest GPA among the men’s and women’s teams. She will most definitely be missed, on the academic side and on the athletic side.” Dr. R.D. Sharma, chairman for the division of business at Livingstone College, described Chepchumba as sincere and dedicated. “Winnie’s teachers and peers are very impressed with her self discipline, punctuality and hard work,” Sharma said. “She is known for her smiling face and dependability. She is also an outstanding athlete. I wish her well in her future endeavors.” Chepchumba said Sharma and Rao Jasti, an assistant professor of accounting, were among her favorite instructors. She hopes to earn an MBA at Iowa State University and ultimately work as a certified public accountant for a ma-

EAST SPENCER — Five people face drug charges after the Rowan County Sheriff’s Office raided three homes simultaneously Friday to break up what authorities called an “open-air market” for crack cocaine. Members of the department’s Criminal Investigations Division and Special Response Team served search warrants at 107, 109 and 115 West Pine Tree Drive, the Sheriff’s Office said in a press release. The searched culminated a month-long investigation sparked by numerous complaints from residents. “The area had become an open-air market for the purchase of ‘crack’ cocaine,” the press release said. During the operation, undercover investigators bought cocaine from suspects at the houses, according to the Sheriff’s Office. Friday morning, detectives and Special Response Team members went to the homes and conducted three raids at once. During a search of the houses, investigators seized about a third of an ounce of crack cocaine, a third of an ounce of marijuana, about $3,000 in cash, and two handguns, one of which had been reported stolen from Salisbury, the press release said. The following people were charged: • Samuel Lee Stallings, 48, 109 Pine Tree Drive, charged with possession with intent to sell and deliver cocaine; selling and delivering cocaine; maintaining a dwelling to keep, store and sell a controlled substance; and possession of a firearm by a felon. All the charges are felonies. He was jailed under $100,000 bond. • Damion Jermaine Morrow, 32, 115 W. Pine Tree Drive, charged with possession with intent to sell and deliver cocaine, maintaining a dwelling to keep, store and sell a controlled substance; and possession of a firearm by a felon; $100,000 bond. • Stevie Williams, 55, 511

New schools coalition forms to keep pressure for maintaining sales tax RALEIGH (AP) — Public school boosters and business groups announced Friday the formation of a new coalition supporters say will keep the pressure on the Legislature to keep an extra penny on the sales tax to prevent deep cuts and thousands of job losses in education. The 40 groups in the Quality Schools Coalition, which held a news conference in Raleigh, said the $1.1 billion generated by the additional cent set to expire June 30 is a
simple way to avoid grave damage to the public schools statewide. “The organizations that have come together basically don’t believe we ought to become world-class budget cutters,” Bill McNeal, executive director of the North Carolina Association of School Administrators, said outside the old Capitol building. “We don’t have to do this. This is a selfinflicted wound and has more to do with political promises than with the common good.”
The North Carolina Association of Educators, a coalition member, held a rally Tuesday with more than 2,000 teachers — including some from Rowan County — and other supporters across from the Legislative Building to urge legislators to keep the penny in place. Republicans who now control both the House and Senate are adamant about ending the extra cent this year. It was part of their fall campaign platform and the $19.3 billion
House budget approved this week that would cut funding for at least 11,750 public school positions, according to the Legislature’s fiscal staff. Democrats put the total at more than 18,000. It’s unclear how many people would actually lose their jobs because of vacancies and spending flexibility. The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools could lose more than 600 teaching positions next fall without additional revenues, board member Joe
White said. In the smaller Mooresville city schools, 35 to 50 teaching positions would have to go out of the current 400, superintendent Mark Edwards said. Martha Vick of the Wilson Education Partnership, a coalition member comprised of business and community organizations committed to improving Wilson County’s schools, said additional cuts would harm the county’s ability to attract industry by damaging the local school district.
The coalition said it would bring school and business leaders to the Legislative Building regularly over the next four weeks to lobby lawmakers to discuss what the lost revenue would mean for their local schools and how the penny could prevent drastic cuts after two previous years of cuts.

DARTS AND LAURELS
Get in tune for Train Day Laurels to “Wabash Cannonball,” “Train Whistle Blues,” “Wreck of the Old 97,” “Chattanooga Choo-Choo,” “Midnight Train to Georgia” and all the other great train songs. Heck, let’s even throw in Jethro Tull’s “Locomotive Breath.” Why are we off on this note? It’s National Train Day, with open-house festivities at the depots in Salisbury (8 a.m.-2:30 p.m.) and Kannapolis (8 a.m.-3 p.m.). It’s an occasion to pay tribute to railroading’s role in pop culture, as well as in hauling freight and passengers. This community has long had a special connection to trains by virtue of Spencer Shops and the N.C. Transportation Museum. In addition to the depot’s open house, the Transportation Museum has a full slate of family-oriented events scheduled today, including the “Just for Kids” Junior Conductor Jamboree. • • • Dart to Republican legislators who want to roll back some early-voting provisions that have made casting a ballot in North Carolina more convenient. The proposal in the N.C. General Assembly would shorten the early voting period by a week, prohibit it entirely on Sundays and obliterate sameday registration and voting. This proposal follows others that would require voters to produce photo IDs and ban dual-language balloting. Supporters argue the photo ID law is designed to prevent voter fraud — despite an overwhelming lack of evidence such fraud is occurring. While that argument has never been supported with clearcut evidence of significant voter fraud, the motivation behind these other proposals is even more questionable. Early voting has been a resounding success in North Carolina, with increasing numbers of citizens taking advantage of it in recent elections. Along with offering convenience, it also spreads out the workload for local election offices. Restricting it would serve only to lengthen voter lines and lessen turnout.

Some random observations about city budget, Fibrant What a delight to open my morning paper and see the multiple ways our city fathers plan to fund our fair city next year. Some random thoughts: 1. Don’t brag and tell me we have not had a tax increase in four years when raising the water/sewer charge every year is still taking more money out of my pocket! It is a tax increase but just spelled differently. 2. No merit or cost of living raises. Let’s carry this one more step to include no bonus whether it be big, small or in between. 3. If we are finding out now that we can operate with fewer employees, then perhaps we have had too many all along, which helped to create our present dilemma. For years it has been sickeningly amusing to see a street repair crew with one man digging and several others standing around “supervising.” 4. Wowee, no increase in Fibrant rates. This is poor consolation for a program that was ill conceived to start with, forced on taxpayers and will probably only survive if the $30-plus million is paid off by taxpayers who had no voice in whether we wanted or even needed the program. Incidentally, could we perhaps publish a list of all of the new businesses waiting in line to come to Salisbury just because of the availability of this space-age wonder? Further, how will the cost of expanding the system to other cities be funded? The fact that North Carolina law empowers a small group of city officials to obligate their citizens with a debt without a vote by the people may be legally correct but that does not make it morally correct. 5. Finally, I am amused by the frequent newspaper articles written by our mayor and others trying to convince the public and maybe even themselves what a wonderful panacea Fibrant will be for all of Salisbury’s financial woes. — Sam L. Hoffman Salisbury

brant has about 850 customers, or about 7 percent of the total residential market. If it continues to sign up an average of 200 new customers a month, the seven months remaining would result in 1,400 new customers or more than 2,000 for the first year, half way to the target of 4,000 customers by the fourth year of operations. Mr. Stone is wrong about other city employees having to bear some sort of burden until Fibrant breaks even financially. Initial losses are covered by the loan, something which is quite normal with startup businesses. No city jobs or departments are at risk due to Fibrant and claims to the contrary are simply untrue. In fact, by offering businesses a highspeed fiber optic system, the city should be able to attract new businesses with the associated increase in taxes and jobs. Of course the City Council wants regular updates. Any board or council would. Once again, I don’t understand Mr. Stone’s concerns, since he doesn’t want to live in the city. If Fibrant ever expands to his neighborhood he is free to stick with his current provider. For those of us who do live in the city, Fibrant has proved a success. — John P. Burke Salisbury
Sculpture Show a success On behalf of the board of directors of Downtown Salisbury, Inc., I’d like to thank the Salisbury Post for your April 3 coverage of the 2011 Salisbury Sculpture Show. This show offers a great opportunity for everyone in Rowan County to experience art in our own back yard. The layout printed in the Post and the description of the show was fantastic. Also, thanks to all those who donated time and money to make this possible. We want to especially thank our patrons, Edward and Susan Norvell; the Public Art Committee and Chairman Barbara Perry; the Waterworks Visual Arts Center and Executive Director Anne Scott Clement, who hosted the artists symposium; and our city staff coordinator, Lynn Raker, who works tirelessly on the details of the show. From abstract to whimsical, this year’s show offers a great opportunity to experience art from across the east coast here in Downtown Salisbury.

Common sense
I’m not sure what Robert Stone’s concern is about Fibrant (May 6 letter). He doesn’t live in Salisbury, and clearly doesn’t want to live here. If he doesn’t want to live in Salisbury, why does he care about Salisbury’s finances or its Fibrant network? Fibrant was discussed thoroughly by the City Council prior to any action being taken. City personnel were readily available for individuals and groups who had questions. The Certificate of Participation loan is secured by Fibrant’s property, not the city’s credit. More to the point, with the major capital investment already in place, commercial cable companies would be delighted to buy Fibrant in the unlikely event it became a problem. Actually, Fibrant is doing extremely well for a start-up business. As of the end of April, after five months in business Fi-

Moderately Confused
funny thing happened on ourway to having a second, and then a third, child. Our costs went up. When we pondered our increasing costs, our friends had different reactions. Some said, “Well, duh!! Of course.” Others said, “Just cut your costs.” How could we stretch our diapers and food for one child to cover two more children? An even greater challenge was how to make our college savings plan for our first child also cover the costs for the next two, especially with college expenses increasing more than inflation. What could we do? DAVID Not only were our POST costs up, but our income declined when my wife stopped working. Clearly, education was the most important investment we could make in our children, both to improve their lives and perhaps to assure our own futures. Borrowing to cover their educations was one option. Telling them to figure it out on their own was another option. Not educating them was another. This mentality has created a logjam in Congress. The new Congress surfed in on the “cut spending” wave. When many arrived, the most powerful budget person in the country, Grover Norquist (who?), pressured them to take a “no tax increase” pledge. The penalty for not signing? Find a new job in the next election cycle. A budget is composed of both income and expenses. How does any family or nation responsibly take a pledge to ignore the income side of that equation? As a nation, we know costs are going to rise. Not only is the population growing but 75 million baby boomers are on the verge of retirement and expecting Social Security and medical benefits. These numbers are staggering, and something is going to give whether we like it or not. Even so, many in Congress believe that rising obligations — if they are, in fact, obligations — should be covered with a static amount of revenue. Much to his credit, Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wisc.), chairman of the House Budget Committee, has addressed the inevitability of the demographics changes on the horizon. He’s no Robin Hood, since his idea is to take from the poor and give to the rich, but at least he began the debate. President Reagan — the Great Tax Cutter — cut individual income taxes from an average of 8.5 percent to 8.4 percent of GDP. (Of course, we need to sneak into these parentheses to recall that after his big tax cut led to increased deficits, he agreed to a dozen tax increases.) The Clinton tax increases raised individual taxes to 8.9 percent of GDP and generated four consecutive budget surpluses for the first time since the 1920s. President Bush cut individual taxes to 7.8 percent of GDP. With the economy mired in its deepest downturn since the Great Depression, individual taxes have declined to 6.2 percent. Grover Norquist wants even lower taxes. Most of Congress agrees. They want their jobs more than they want to make tough choices. Is the U.S. tax burden too high? The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development, an international organization committed to democracy and free markets, has no political agenda. It reports that the average tax burden of its countries is 34 percent of GDP. The U.S. total tax burden is 24 percent. More than 30 countries expect more from their citizens. And none of them carry the cost of defending the planet. Congress and the White House agree on two budget issues. First, tax cuts are easy, simply a question of who gets how much. Second, they have literally agreed to kick the can down the road for another two years until the next election. Democracy is messy. It’s messy now, and it’s going to be messy in two years. Our founding fathers gave us a wonderful gift, our Constitution, and with it, they gave us the best advice most parents ever give their children: Figure it out. Compromise. The political center will shift a little this way or that, but neither party is going to gain absolute control over both the White House and the Congress. Mrs. Dunham, my kindergarten teacher, could fix this mess. She’d go to Washington, sit Congress in a circle, tell them to drink their milk, read a story and say, “OK, boys and girls, let’s figure this out together.” Would she say, “This is too difficult. Another teacher can help you when you’re in the second grade.” Never. It’s funny how so many answers lie with our children. • • • David Post lives in Salisbury and is one of the owners of MedExpress Pharmacy and Salisbury Pharmacy.

The White House is wise to correct its version of how Osama bin Laden died as additional facts come in. And there have been a lot of corrections. On Monday, in briefings about the successful U.S. raid on the terrorist's hideout in Pakistan, the White House and the Pentagon came perilously close to spinning the narrative for propaganda purposes. Counterterrorism advisor John Brennan said bin Laden was “living in an area far removed from the front, hiding behind women who were put in front of him as a human shield. I think it really just speaks to just how false his narrative has been over the years.” But, by Tuesday the “fog of war” had begun to clear. It turns out bin Laden was not “engaged in a firefight,” as Brennan said, or in firing from behind his wife, as a Pentagon official said. In fact, it turns out bin Laden was unarmed on this occasion. But the U.S. commandos could be forgiven for assuming that the terrorist leader was armed because he was regularly photographed with an AK-47 and talked endlessly of jihad.
The question of whether he put up any resistance — and if so, how much — is still murky. At a briefing Tuesday, White House spokesman Jay Carney said cryptically, “I don’t think resistance requires a firearm,” and left it at that. Both Brennan and the Pentagon briefer said bin Laden was hiding behind women, including his wife. There was no human shield, although at least one of the women was undeniably protective. Carney said bin Laden’s wife was shot in the leg when she rushed one of the assaulters. The tactic of demeaning and discrediting a defeated opponent is not unknown in our own history. Secretary of War Edwin Stanton falsely stated that fugitive Confederate President Jefferson Davis had been arrested wearing a woman’s dress, shawl and bonnet. Carney attributed the conflicting versions to the “fog of war” and the White House attempt to put out “a great deal of information in great haste.” We can grant him that, as long as mistakes and misimpressions are quickly and honestly corrected. This story is exciting enough without embellishments. How much more loathsome does a person who killed 3,000 innocent people need to be?

‘Confused’ driver found asleep in his car SALISBURY — An “extremely confused” Salisbury man was charged with impaired driving Thursday night after officers found him asleep in his car while parked on the road. Salisbury Police officers said they could hear Billy Joseph Bush, 43, of 716 N. Fulton St., snoring in the driver’s seat when they opened the vehicle doors. They were responding to reports that a man was slumped over the wheel of his car near the railroad tracks. When Bush woke up, he reportedly told officers he was at the pool. The officers reported that Bush was extremely confused and had red, glassy eyes, slurred speech and a moderate odor of alcohol. After failing sobriety tests, police say, he was arrested at 11:45 p.m. and taken to the Salisbury Police Department, where breath tests registered a blood alcohol content of 0.15 percent. The legal driving limit is .08 percent in North Carolina. Bush was charged with impaired driving and was released into the custody of a
family member. In other Salisbury Police Department reports for Thursday: • James Michael Molitor reported the theft of three firearms valued at $750 on West Henderson Street between Sunday afternoon and Thursday morning. Molitor told police that the handguns stolen were a Kel Tec 9mm pistol, a Bersa Thunder 380 pistol and a Taurus .38 revolver. • Caleb Thomas Ford, of West 12th Street in Salisbury reported a burglary with unlawful entry between 3:45 p.m. and midnight Thursday. Ford told police that someone entered his home and stole a $300 IBM laptop computer, a $427 Sony PS-3 and $60 in cash. There was no sign of forced entry. • Sunshine Carwashes LLC reported a burglary with forcible entry at Sunshine Car Wash, 1624 Stokes Ferry Road, between Wednesday morning and Thursday night. There was $370 worth of damage to a door and a lock, but nothing was taken, including a visible tray of quarters.
• Benham Real Estate reported a burglary with unlawful entry at a vacant duplex on East 11th Street between March 1 and Thursday. There was $10,520 worth of damage to interior walls, windows and cabinets, but nothing was taken. • Victoria Kaye Messick reported the theft of $500 diamond earrings from her unlocked vehicle, along with damage to a center console lockbox, on Sunset Drive in Salisbury between Tuesday evening and Wednesday afternoon. • Barbara Casper Vogt reported that the front grill valued at $100 was stolen from her parked vehicle on Wiley Avenue overnight Wednesday evening and Thursday morning. • Elizabeth Marie Gascoigne reported that someone stole 67 alprazalam pills worth $300 from her unattended purse while at O’Charley’s, 123 N. Arlington St., between 3 and 8 p.m. Wednesday. • Thomas Izell McDaniel, of East Fisher Street, reported the theft of $1,000 from a lockbox in his home between April 26 and April 29.

rorist) activity and are highly vigilant on that matter for that reason.” Despite the new threats against the United States, the overall theme of the al-Qaida statement was that of continuity for the organization. Much of the 11-paragraph statement was dedicated to underlining that al-Qaida would live on, depicting him as another in a line of “martyrs” from the group. “Sheik Osama didn’t build an organization to die when he dies,” the statement read.
“The university of faith, Quran and jihad from which bin Laden graduated will not close its doors,” it added. “The soldiers of Islam will continue in groups and united, plotting and planning without getting bored, tired, with determination, without giving up until striking a blow,” the statement said. The acknowledgment by alQaida should remove doubt among all but the most diehard conspiracy theorists that bin Laden is in fact dead.

Pullium was among several people waiting in line before the doors opened Friday morning. “I love this book sale,” she said. Jan Bowen of Rockwell enjoys fiction, and the last book sale at the library allowed her to stock up on reading material for a threemonth stay in Florida. “I figured it would be less crowded (Friday) than tomorrow,” Bowen said. The children’s books are always a big draw. “He’s looking for Batman,” Christy Patterson of Gold Hill said, referring to her 5-year-old son, Joshua,

Patterson home-schools her son and finds a lot of reading material for them at the book sale. “We always try to come the first day because that’s the best selection,” she said. Amanda Eller had her arms full of books she was buying for her nieces, who are 10 and 7. Her criteria for the books she chose? “Anything that looks like I would have liked it when I was their age,” Eller said.

LIVINGSTONE FROM 3a jor firm like Deloitte & Touche or Price Waterhouse Coopers. Chepchumba’s interest in accounting dates to her days at St. Mary’s Girls High School in Nandi South, Kenya. “I like business, and I like working with account ledgers because I found it was easy for me to do,” she said. In early March, Chepchumba and other Livingstone students traveled to Atlanta to participate in the Walmart Better Living Business Plan Challenge, a competition that provided a forum for students to showcase their best ideas. Livingstone competed against students from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Duke University, Clark Atlanta University and other
schools. “At first they didn’t let us see other competitors so we didn’t get to learn from them, which was one of the main objectives in going down there,” Chepchumba said. “But we still had a good time. We stayed in a nice hotel and had good food.” At Livingstone, Chepchumba was a tutor through the college’s Empowering Scholars Program, a participant in VITA, or Voluntary Income Tax Assistance program, a member of SIFE, or Students in Free Enterprise, and last year she played on the women’s tennis team. Tanya E. Greene, program coordinator in Student Support Services at Livingstone, couldn’t say enough about Chepchumba. “There are so many wonderful qualities that I admire about Winnie,” Greene said. “She is the most pleasant and
respectable student that I’ve known since I’ve worked at Livingstone College. One of the qualities I admire most is that although she is from another continent, she did not allow her cultural difference to interfere with adjusting to life in the states. She seemed to remain true to who she is as a person, and her heritage. “It was always a pleasure to see Winnie adorned in her African garb when there was an event on campus,” Greene said. “Her presence always exuded such kindness and warmth. She is one of a kind and a definite role model to the younger generation and to women. She is inspirational because she took a chance in life and left her country to receive an education, which will afford her opportunities beyond her expectations.” Chepchumba knew it wouldn’t be easy to leave Kenya and come to the U.S.

siblings could see her walk across the stage today. “It feels sad because I wanted to see my parents at my graduation, but then I understand all the challenges they have to face to come over here,” she said. “It would be really expensive for them to come…” Chepchumba went home for Christmas break last year, her first time since arriving in the U.S., so she saw her parents not too long ago. And though being so far away has its emotional challenges, she said she’d definitely recommend it to others. “I would encourage other students from Africa to come to the states and experience the diversity of different cultures because America is a melting pot,” Chepchumba said. “I would also encourage them to come over here so they can explore their talents.”

Many counties have slightly higher rates. The base rate would fall 6.75 percent if it were allowed to expire. Democratic Gov. Beverly Perdue’s budget proposal would lower the base rate to 7.5 percent. Rep. Mitch Gillespie, RMcDowell, one of the primary
House budget writers, said Friday in an interview Republicans could be able to find hundreds of millions of dollars more if needed from pots of money in the chamber’s spending plan to address concerns raised by the Senate. GOP leaders have shown little signs of budging on ending the penny sales tax increase. “There are things that can be done to bridge that gap without raising taxes,” Gillespie said.

of hydrocodone and four doses of methadone. Bost was arrested and charged Wednesday with felony trafficking of hydrocodone and simple possession of methadone. He was taken to the Rowan County Detention Center and given a $10,000 bond.

Busch finally breaks through BY PETE IACOBELLI Associated Press
DARLINGTON, S.C. — Kyle Busch finally broke through to win a Nationwide Series race at Darlington Raceway after near misses the past two years. Busch moved past Elliott Sadler 23 laps from the end and stayed in front of Joe Gibbs Racing teammate Denny Hamlin to win the Royal Purple 200 on Friday night, his fifth Nationwide victory this season and 48th overall — one behind Mark Martin’s series record. But for all the success
Busch has had in the series, he had been snakebit by “The Lady in Black.” He led for 143 laps in 2009 before cutting a tire and finishing 16th, then was edged out by Hamlin a year ago with what he thought was the faster car. This time, Busch waited for his time as fellow Sprint Cup regulars Kasey Kahne and Carl Edwards took their turns at the top before falling back. “My car wasn’t the best on the short run, but it seemed to really come to life on the long runs. It was really good,” Busch said. Sadler was third, series
points leader Justin Allgaier fourth and Steve Wallace fifth. Busch led 49 laps, taking the lead for the fourth and final time on lap 124. He was helped by his decision to take on four fresh tires late in the race that kept him ahead of Hamlin, last week’s Nationwide winner at Richmond International Raceway. “Talking about running with the 18 and beating the 18 are two different things,” Sadler said. “We all know how good he is in a Nationwide car.” Soon, Busch — the Sprint Cup winner last week in Rich-
mond — might be the best ever. He’s won nearly a quarter of his starts — 48 of 211 — and the 26-year-old star is poised to pass Martin. “We’ll see when it happens, if it happens,” Busch said about catching Martin. “Maybe some of you say it’s inevitable, but we just keeping working our guts out and making sure we bring good cars to the racetrack.” Martin collected his 49 wins in 22 seasons in Nationwide. Busch has won 37 series races since 2008. Busch plans to run Nation-

East pulls out all the tricks BY MIKE LONDON mlondon@salisburypost.com

the defense was solid. We had a lot of people do a lot of good things for us today. That's what we like to see." Carson had hoped to make a statement and pull the upset, but was doomed by missed scoring chances early and shaky defense. The latter started right away when a fielding error allowed Nesbitt to reach lead-
ing off the bottom of the first. She went to second on wild pitch, advanced to third on a groundout and scored on the first of two sacrifice flys by White. "Normally we're pretty strong in the field and that's what hurt us," Carson coach Casey White said. "Anytime you make five or six errors against a team like that you
GRANITE QUARRY - Having already E. Rowan 8 wrapped up Carson 1 its fourth consecutive NPC softball title, there was a festive atmosphere for East Rowan's regular-season finale on Friday afternoon. And two of the Mustangs most instrumental to that run of success made sure the party wasn't going to get spoiled. Chelsea White and Ericka Nesbitt both celebrated Senior Day with big games in leading the way to an 8-1 victory over Carson. White scattered four hits and struck out nine on the mound and went 2 for 2 with three RBIs at the plate. Nesbitt hit a home run, a double, drove in two runs and scored three times as the Mustangs (19-1) ran the conference table for a second straight year. "A really good way to finish on Senior Day, 12-0 two years in a row in the NPC," East coach Mike Waddell said. "That's what we striving for all along. Getting ready to go into the playoffs you don't want to have any hiccups at this point in time. You want to keep everything moving in TYLER BUCKWELL/sALisBUrY post the right direction. "Chelsea pitched well. Er- east’s chelsea White struck out nine in the circle and claimed icka had a good day the plate, two hits at the plate.

can't be competitive. It's disappointing. When you play a better team you always want to play your best and obviously we didn't." The Mustangs then used three hits, a walk and another error to score four runs in the second and take command. Sydney Poole led off with a single, stole second, went to third on another wild pitch and slid in under a tag at the plate on a fielder's choice of the bat of Steffi Sides. After an RBI groundout by Jesse Rummage, Nesbitt followed with an RBI double to the fence in leftcenter. Carson thrid baseman Heather Yount then couldn't grab a soft liner that would've ended the inning and White's flyball to shallow center went off the glove of diving center fielder Marissa Sellers, bringing home Nesbitt to make it 5-0. "That was a nice little cushion right there," Waddell said. "It seemed like we kept ending up in split runners so we were able to keep taking advantage of things and it just fell into place for us that inning." The Cougars got one back in the third when Michaela White (3 for 4)

STATESVILLE — Accepting the award for the NPC base1 ball tourE. Rowan W. Iredell 0 n a m e n t championship was East Rowan coach Brian Hightower. Accepting the Oscar for best actor in a leading role was reliever Will Johnson, while center fielder Will Sapp and infielders Justin Morris and Ashton ROBBINS Fleming finished in a three-way tie in the voting for best supporting actor. Top-seeded East used the whole playbook to beat second-seeded West Iredell 1-0 in Friday’s tournament final on West Iredell’s field. Victory required a fifthinning triple play on a great individual effort by third baseman Avery Rogers, plus dramatic execution of the hidden-ball trick in the seventh. “It was important for us
to win this one,” said a drained Hightower, whose team was clocked at Staton Field 12-4 by West Iredell in an April 1 encounter that marked the low point in the Mustangs’ season. “You always like to prove you’re the best in your league, and this win lets us go into the playoffs on an up note.” East (18-7) scored the only run in the first when Nathan Fulbright was hit by a pitch the with bases loaded. Bradley Robbins pitched six superb innings to raise his record to 9-0, but Hightower turned FULBRIGHT to his southpaw closer Johnson — as always — for the seventh. “Bradley had only thrown 53 pitches through six, and that’s ridiculously low, but Sam Laws was leading off the seventh and he’d had good swings at Bradley all night,” Hightower explained. “And Garrett Bell was up third. He’s a good lefty hitter.” Laws crushed a pitch from Johnson to the fence and nar-

Hornets move on to CCC final BY DAVID SHAW dshaw@salisburypost.com
For four innings Friday night, Salisbury’s baseball t e a m Salisbury 11 l o o k e d W. Davidson 4 like a CCC l i g h t weight about to hit the canvas. The Hornets were four runs down to top-seeded West Davidson in the confernce semifinals and Dragons’ righthander Josh Andrews had found a groove, retiring 10 of the last 11 batters he had faced. “Pretty much, we were dead in the water,” coach Scott Maddox said after Salisbury stormed back for an 11-4 win. “For four innings I didn’t see that fifth inning coming. That’s when we jumped up and started hitting. That’s what I’ve been looking for all year.” Salisbury’s reward is a berth in Monday night’s championship game at Robertson Stadium and a shot at the CCC’s No. 2 seed in next week’s 2A state playoffs. West (15-6) — which had won 10 straight games and hadn’t lost since dropping a 4-0 decision to Salisbury in late March — has secured the conference’s top
seed. “Absolutely nothing went wrong for us for the last month-and-a-half,” said WD coach Jerry W a l s e r . “Maybe we were due for this kind of performance.” The Dragons were felled by five MEYERHOEFFER errors — atypical of a team that had committed only 15 before the first pitch. Six of Salisbury’s runs were unearned. But the fourthBAUK seeded Hornets, limited to one hit through four innings, scored seven runs on seven hits against Andrews in the top of the fifth. “His fastball had some tail,” said winning pitcher Brian Bauk. “Some late movement. It would break in on the righthanders and away from the lefties. It took a while, but

SALISBURY
Lonergan takes GW job Associated Press
Associated Press
DARLINGTON, S.C. — Kasey Kahne continued his strong showing this year at Darlington Raceway, following a Trucks victory in March with a record-setting qualifying lap Friday for the Southern 500. Kahne won his fourth career pole in nine starts at the track “Too Tough To Tame” with a lap of 181.254 mph, surpassing the mark of 180.370 mph set by Jamie McMurray a year ago. Kahne was the marquee name in the Camping World Trucks event at Darlington two months ago while NASCAR’s top two series had the weekend off. So how much did taking the checkered flag then help Kahne on Friday? “I don’t think that hurt us that all. We had a great truck that night, that whole day,” Kahne said. “Anytime you make laps on this track, it just builds on your confidence and builds on what you’re looking for in your car.” Kahne will be joined on the front row Saturday night by Ryan Newman, who also bettered the previous record at 180.429. Defending race champion Denny Hamlin was third, Sprint Cup points leader Carl Edwards fourth and seven-time Darlington winner Jeff Gordon fifth. It was the fourth consecutive race since Darlington was repaved after the 2007 event that the qualifying record was broken. Greg Biffle did it in 2008 and Matt Kenseth followed in 2009. The top qualifying speed has improved by nearly 8 mph over Ward Burton’s record-setting lap of 173.797 from 1996 that stood 12 years. Kahne’s previous qualifying success had come on Darlington’s old, abrasive, tirechewing surface with poles at the track’s 2004 spring race — the last year it held two Sprint Cup weekends — and in 2005 and 2006. His best finish came after his last pole, finishing third behind Biffle five years back. Kahne’s had his struggles since the repave, his best finish in the three races since a 20th last year. “I feel it’s take me a little bit of time,” he said. “The cars handle a little bit different but we just keep working on it.” Newman’s lap ended a turbulent day at Darlington when he and driver Juan Pablo Montoya talked with NASCAR about their spat at Richmond a week ago. NASCAR spokesman Kerry Tharp acknowledged the meeting didn’t go as well as the governing body hoped. Newman had wrecked Montoya early in the race and Montoya later retaliated. “That was a private meeting, that’s why we met in the hauler,” Newman said. “I’m past all that. We’ll work on tomorrow’s race and everything else. That’s behind us.” Hamlin swept the Nationwide and Sprint Cup races here in 2010 and hopes to keep the momentum he gained from a second-place last week at Richmond. Edwards strong lap continued a stellar week for the points leader. Wife, Kate, gave birth to the couple’s second child, Michael, this past Wednesday night. Edwards said and mother and child are healthy and resting a home. Gordon is seeking is eighth Darlington victory. Only upcoming Hall of Fame inductee David Pearson with 10 and the late Dale Earnhardt with nine have won more often here. Marcos Ambrose will start sixth, followed by AJ Allmendinger and Brian Vickers.
The college hoops notebook... WASHINGTON — Mike Lonergan is coming home, taking the men’s basketball coaching job at George Washington after six successful seasons in Vermont. Lonergan signed a fiveyear contract with George Washington on Friday to replace Karl Hobbs, who was fired last month. Lonergan, 45, had a 126-68 record with the Catamounts since 2005, LONERGAN leading them to the NCAA tournament in 2010 as America East conference champions and to the NIT in 2007 and 2011. This year’s team finished 23-9. The move returns Lonergan to the nation’s capital, where he won the NCAA Division III national title in 2001 with his alma mater, Catholic. Lonergan went 251-88 with the Cardinals from 1992-2004. During his last three seasons, he was coaching the men’s team while his wife, Maggie, was coaching the women’s team. Lonergan was also born and raised in the nearby Maryland suburbs and went to high school in Washington, D.C. He left Catholic in 2004 and spent one season as an assistant under Gary Williams at Maryland before moving to Vermont, where he succeeded Tom Brennan. “The opportunity to return to my roots in the
Washington, D.C., area and build a program at an exceptional school like George Washington was too good to pass up,” Lonergan said in a statement released by the school. Lonergan will be formally introduced at a news conference on Monday. The changes in the men’s basketball program mark the first major moves under incoming athletic director Patrick Nero, who was hired last month. Nero was already familiar with Lonergan, having served as America East commissioner since 2005. Lonergan takes over a program that struggled during the latter portion of Hobbs’ 10 seasons at the school. The Colonials went 52-64 overall and 25-39 in the Atlantic 10 over the last four seasons. • COLLEGE PARK, Md. — Maryland basketball coach Gary Williams stepped into retirement Friday with a fist pump, a few timely jokes and tears in his eyes. One day after he stunned the school by calling it quits, the 66-year-old coach formally bid farewell during an emotional ceremony at Comcast Center before family, friends, several of his former players and thousands of Terps fans. As Williams walked onto the floor, he treated the crowd to his trademark fist-pump. Minutes later, his eyes welled with tears as the crowd collectively stood and chanted “Gary! Gary!” Coaching in a frenzied style that became as much a part of his lore as the school-record 461 wins, Williams was a fixture at Maryland for more than two decades. He could have probably stayed until he was 80, but opted instead to walk away on his own terms.
FROM 1B everybody got used to it.” Bauk, who threw five wild pitches, trailed 2-0 when West’s Gary Ferguson punched a two-out, two-run double into the right-center gap in the bottom of the second. “I kept trying to throw my curveball, but it wasn’t working,” Bauk said. “Then I figured it out and started throwing cutters, which gave them two pitches to worry about.” West finished the game with four hits, but only one over the last five innings. And despite his control problems, B a u k
“I feel like I still could coach, but at the same time you realize there’s other things out there,” he said. “I started coaching at age 23. Each year you know your schedule, you know the recruiting period, everything is kind of programed into your life. This gives me a chance while I’m still relatively healthy to do some things, to see what’s out there.” Williams’ eyes became moist as he began to explain his decision, and he paused to collect himself. The crowd respectfully cheered during the silence, and he said, “You’d better hold that (applause). That may not be the last time that happens.” And it wasn’t. Williams coached for 33 years, the last 22 at Maryland, where he played as a guard from 1964-67. He guided the Terrapins to the national championship in 2002, built the program into a force within the Atlantic Coast Conference and sent several players to the NBA. • KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Tennessee freshman forward Tobias Harris will remain in the NBA draft after being projected as a firstround pick. “Want to thank all that supported me during my time at UT. Its truly been a blessing, the Lord has guided me in the greatest of ways,” Harris posted on Twitter on Friday afternoon shortly after the announcement that he would remain in the draft. Harris was second among Volunteers with 15.3 points and 7.3 rebounds per game last season. He started 33 of the 34 games he played as a freshman.

DARLINGTON FROM 1B
EAST FROM 1B rowly beat right fielder Wesley LeRoy’s strong throw to second for a double. Then, with Jordan Gamble batting, Johnson whirled and fired an imaginary baseball toward the second-base bag, and Hightower’s club, on cue, turned into a traveling troupe of thespians. Morris, the shortstop, went sailing through the air like Flipper in the Atlantic. Fleming, the second baseman, went sprawling. Sapp, out in center, darted madly after Johnson’s imaginary errant toss, and with the crowd screaming wildly and Mustangs sprinting in all directions to back up bases, Laws accepted the bait. He w a s halfway between second and third when JOHNSON the sly Johnson casually produced the baseball from his glove and flipped it to Rogers, who tagged Laws for the first out of the inning. After Gamble mashed a grounder that Morris gobbled up and Sapp chased down a wicked liner to leftcenter off Bell’s bat, the Mustangs had narrowly escaped. “They hit some balls really good,” sighed Johnson, a relieved reliever. “But we practice the hidden-ball trick a lot. It was a good time to use it.” Robbins allowed three straight singles in the first inning, but first baseman Andy Austin fired across the diamond to nail an overly aggressive runner to end the frame. Robbins, who only fanned one, then put up three straight, rapid 1-2-3 innings. “I’ll take groundballs over strikeouts any day,” Robbins said. “But then we
got to the fifth. That was the tough one.” That’s when West Iredell (13-9) loaded the bases on singles by Bell and Lance Clanton and Robbins’ only walk. With none out, WI coach Randy Martin sent up Brett Pope to pinch hit for his No. 9 man, and he was squeezing. “He’s a very good bunter, and the main thing we’re trying to do there is stay out of the double play because (leadoff man Travis) Fetter is up next,” Martin explained. “But then they get a triple play.” Pope’s bunt wasn’t bad. Ordinarily, it would have fallen. But Rogers was thinking squeeze, even if with none out, and he darted in and made a diving catch. The ball settled in his glove a half-inch above the grass. If you were behind Rogers, it was impossible to tell he caught it, and runners were HIGHTOWER moving. Fans drowned out the directions issued by coaches, and Rogers trotted to third and tagged the bag for the second out. Then he threw across to Austin for the third one, and Mustangs raced to the dugout. “It was big momentum,” Rogers said. “But that’s a play I’m supposed to make.”
Rogers was being modest. It was a fantastic play. East threatened all day against WI pitcher Sean Grant, but the Warriors twice turned double plays when the Mustangs had opportunities. “A few timely hits would’ve been nice,” Hightower said. “But Grant’s very good.” Martin took the loss calmly, but it was a tough one. Mostly, his heart went out to Laws, one of the NPC’s best. “Brian’s teams always have plays, and you’ve got to be careful,” he said. “But it’s like I told Sam, if he doesn’t hit that double, we have no chance. We’re wounded now, and the only way to soothe it is by winning in the playoffs.”
wide events at Dover and Charlotte later this month, “so those are two really good places for me,” he said. The race was a quick one, lasting less than two hours and involving only five cautions. The worst of the stoppages came on lap 95 with a multi-car accident that sent Brian Scott hard into the infield wall. The barrier had the SAFER walls to cushion Scott’s hit, something Richmond International Raceway did not when Jeff Gordon hit an inside wall in last week’s Sprint Cup race. Scott was not seriously hurt. The wreck also collected up Sprint Cup regulars Edwards, Kahne, Clint Bowyer and Brad Keselowski. All but Bowyer began in the top 10 after qualifying was

burst with a leadoff single to left on a 1-2 pitch. “That was a good at-bat,” he said. “I was was waiting for a good pitch and kept fouling off everything I didn’t like. Finally I got one.” Before the inning was over, Meyerhoeffer was back at the plate, the 10th of 12 SHS batters. This time he bounced a two-out, two-run single to center that gave the Hornets a 74 lead. Other key hits were delivered by John Knox, Clint Veal and Kyle Wolfe. “We didn’t capitalize on our lead,” Walser lamented afterward. “Salisbury is a wonderful offensive team. You can’t cruise with a lead against them.” Added Meyerhoeffer, “This is a good time for the pieces of he puzzle to come together for us.” • NOTES: Salisbury will meet East Davidson in Monday’s championship game.

rained out earlier Friday. Bowyer was scheduled to start second but was sent to the back of the field after missing roll call at the prerace drivers’ meeting. “I tried my hardest to miss that,” said Edwards, who led 20 laps. “But there was nothing we could do. We got lucky it wasn’t torn up worse.” Edwards, the Sprint Cup points leader, finished 20th. Busch got away from the accident mostly unscathed and waited for his chance to pass Sadler. Hamlin said his JGR teammate had the better car and fresher tires. “We didn’t have enough for him,” Hamlin said. James Hylton, 76, became the oldest driver to start a race in NASCAR’s top three series when he rolled out Friday night. However, Hylton, whose first Sprint Cup event came in 1964, lasted only two laps before heading to the garage.

Mavs go up 3-0, Bulls take control Associated Press
The NBA roundup... DALLAS — Dirk Nowitzki scored 32 points, Jason Terry had 23 and Peja Stojakovic scored 11 of his 15 in the fourth quarter, rallying the Dallas Mavericks to a 98-92 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers on Friday night that puts the two-time defending champions on the brink of elimination. Dallas trailed by seven points with 5:05 left and was getting shredded inside by a new-look Lakers lineup featuring three big men. The Mavs hadn’t led since late in the second quarter and a record crowd was turning silent. Then Nowitzki hit a 3-pointer and Stojakovic followed with another, bringing the team and AssociAted press the crowd to life. An 18-6 raldirk Nowitzki scored 32 points as dallas went up 3-0 against ly followed, turning around the game and possibly sealing the the Lakers.
series. The Mavericks lead 3-0, and no team in NBA history has ever lost after taking such a lead. Dallas will go for the sweep at home on Sunday. It’s hard to count out a group that includes Kobe Bryant and is coached by Phil Jackson, the winner of a record 11 titles, especially with Los Angeles having won the last two championships and with the added incentive of Jackson headed to retirement. Yet the Lakers have only themselves to blame. They blew a 16-point lead in the opener, got routed at home the next game and now have this flop at the finish. The meltdown included a play where Bryant threw a pass to Pau Gasol, but Gasol expected him to shoot and was looking at the rim. The ball hit him in the back, creating a
turnover plucked by Dallas. On the Lakers’ next possession, Bryant came up short on a long jumper to beat the shot clock, leading to a pair of free throws by Nowitzki that put the Mavericks ahead for the first time since the final minutes of the first half. Playing without the suspended Ron Artest, the Lakers started 6-foot-10 Lamar Odom at small forward. He and Andrew Bynum dominated inside, but Los Angeles was never able to pull away. Bynum had 21 points and 10 rebounds. Odom scored 18 and Bryant scored 17. He had only four points in the final quarter. Bulls 99, Hawks 82 ATLANTA — Derrick Rose shook off the sore ankle and that shocking loss at home. With his team scuffling through the playoffs, he decided it was time to take matters
in his own hands. The Atlanta Hawks never had a chance. Looking every bit like the MVP, Rose sliced up Atlanta for a career-high 44 points as the Bulls seized control of the Eastern Conference semifinals with their best performance of the postseason, romping to a 99-82 victory over the Hawks in Game 3 Friday night. “Derrick was in attack mode, obviously,” coach Tom Thibodeau said. “He was attacking from the start. We needed it to set the tone. When he’s not dancing with the ball and he’s attacking, he’s impossible to stop.” You’ll get no argument from the Hawks. “He’s tough to cover anyway,” said Jeff Teague, who had the futile task of trying to guard Rose much of the night. “But when his jump shot is falling, he’s the MVP.”
Bruins advance, Red Wings survive The NHL roundup... BOSTON — Milan Lucic scored twice, Johnny Boychuk got the go-ahead goal, and the Boston Bruins stopped any chance of another historic comeback by the Philadelphia Flyers with a 5-1 win Friday night that completed a sweep of the Eastern Conference semifinal series. In this round last year against Philadelphia, the Bruins became just the third NHL team to lose a series after winning the first three games. Boston even held a 3-0 lead at home in Game 7 before the Flyers rallied again for a 4-3 victory. Kris Versteeg lifted Philadelphia into a 1-1 tie on Friday at 13:22 of the second period after Lucic scored at 12:02 of the first. Boychuk put Boston ahead at 2:42 of the
third, Lucic connected again at 15:03, and Brad Marchand and Daniel Paille added empty-net goals. The Bruins are in the conference finals for the first time since 1992 and will have home-ice advantage against the Tampa Bay Lightning. Philadelphia was swept 4-0 for the first time since losing to Detroit in the 1997 Stanley Cup finals. Boston has won seven of eight games and is aiming for its first Stanley Cup title since 1972. Tampa Bay won it all in 2004. The Bruins began rolling after losing the first two games of their first-round series at home to Montreal. They won the next three games, lost Game 6, and advanced with an overtime win in Boston in Game 7. Their offense took off against the Flyers. The Bru-
ins won the opener 7-3, then took the second game 3-2 in overtime before returning home for a 5-1 win on Wednesday night. Red Wings 4, Sharks 3 DETROIT — Darren Helm scored with 1:27 left in the third period, lifting the Detroit Red Wings to an elimination-avoiding 4-3 win over the San Jose Sharks in Game 4 of the Western Conference semifinal series on Friday night. The Sharks will take their 3-1 series lead back home with a chance to advance on Sunday night to the NHL’s final four. Detroit is trying to become the fourth NHL team to win a series after trailing 3-0. Veteran defenseman Nicklas Lidstrom scored twice in the first period to help the Red Wings take a three-goal lead that they let slip away. Logan Couture had a goal
15 seconds after Lidstrom’s second, Dan Boyle scored midway through the middle period to pull San Jose within 3-2, and Dany Heatley tied it early in the third. Helm put Detroit back ahead for good, scoring from the left circle off a cross-ice pass from Patrick Eaves, who got the puck off a long rebound following Brian Rafalski’s shot. Jimmy Howard made 25 saves for the win. San Jose’s Antti Niemi stopped 26 shots. The second-round rematch has mirrored last year’s matchup between the teams. San Jose won the first three games by a goal each time, but couldn’t complete the sweep. Todd Bertuzzi scored first this time 6:22 in, just as he did last year in Game 4, when he gave Detroit a 1-0 lead at 5:40. The Red Wings went on to win that game 7-1 before getting eliminated in Game 5.

Perez rallies for two-shot lead Associated Press
The golf roundup... CHARLOTTE — Pat Perez went from watching a great round of golf to playing one himself. Perez was four shots behind playing partner Lucas Glover, then birdied five of the last six holes Friday in the Wells Fargo Championship for a 7-under 65 and a two-shot lead. Talking about his golf sure beats the questions Perez was getting earlier in the week. He was the third player in the group at New Orleans that featured a heated exchange between Rory Sabbatini and Sean O’Hair, and Perez spent most of this week dodging questions because it didn’t involve him. The golf certainly helped change the conversation. For two days at Quail Hollow, he has made 18 birdies and was at 12-under 132. Perez had a two-shot lead over Bill Haas (70) and Jonathan Byrd (68), with Glover (68) and Phil
Mickelson (66) another shot behind. Late morning storms forced a delay of nearly 90 minutes. REGIONS TRADITION BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — Mark Calcavecchia opened a three-stroke lead in the Regions Tradition, shooting a 7under 65 to run his bogey-free streak to 35 holes at Shoal Creek. Calcavecchia birdied Nos. 10-12 to pull ahead and added another birdie on the par-5 17th to reach 11 under. He had a chance to get to 12 under, but missed a birdie putt by a few inches on No. 18 The 13-time PGA Tour winner, seeking his first Champions Tour victory in the 50-andover circuit’s first major of the year, hasn’t made a bogey since opening the tournament with a double on the first hole. Kenny Perry was second, matching Calcavecchia with a 65. Jay Haas — whose son, Bill, was tied for second in the PGA Tour’s Wells Fargo
Championship — and Michael Allen were tied for third at 7 under. Haas had a 68, and Allen shot a 67. First-round leader Tom Lehman (71) and Tom Pernice Jr. (66) were 6 under. SPANISH OPEN TERRASSA, Spain — Thomas Aiken shot a 4-under 69 to take a one-stroke lead in the Spanish Open, overshadowed by news about Spanish great Seve Ballesteros’ worsening health. Aiken, from South Africa, had an 8-under 136 total. Spain’s Pablo Larrazabal (70) was second, and countryman Alvaro Velasco (70), Frenchman Romain Wattel (71), England’s Anthony Wall (70) and Scotland’s Scott Jamieson (71) were 6 under. The majority of players were on the El Prat course when news emerged that fivetime major champion Ballesteros’ condition has severely deteriorated, more than two years after the 54-year-old had surgery to remove a cancerous brain tumor.

Carson’s Sydney Grkman just misses a diving catch in the outfield.
SOFTBALL FROM 1B reached on an infield single and scored on a double by Sydney Grkman. However, White was dominant after that, Nesbitt homered to center in the fourth and East tacked on two more runs in the sixth. The Mustangs' leadoff hitter reached again in that frame, two more Carson errors helped runners move up or score and Chelsea White's second sac fly plated the final run. East's star hurler was quite comfortable by the end, but did have to dodge trouble early. After working around a leadoff single by the Cougars' White in the first, she put the first two batters on in the second with a walk and a hit batter. But she struck out the next two batters on six pitches and then got an inning-ending popout.
"Runners on first and second and no outs and you can't move them around," Casey White said. "Those opportunities don't come by a lot on somebody like Chelsea White and you have to take advantage of them and we didn't. It's very frustrating." Carson did get the one run in the third, but wasted a chance for more with runners on second and third and one out. White recorded a strikeout and a lineout to limit the damage, then faced just one over the minimum over the final four innings. When Michaela White was retired for the first time in the game on a tough one-hopper to Nesbitt at short for the final out, it was time to light the grill. "I think we've got a little cookout going on here," Waddell said. "All I had to do was show up they told me." Making sure to get the 'W' was probably a good thing, too.
"Basically we spell fun WI-N," Waddell said. "It's a little bit of a joke, but anytime we talk about having fun we come out to win. We were expected to win this year and we're 191 so far. Right now I think we're where we're supposed to be. There's a few more things that we could get clicking on all cylinders and if we can get that going I think we can be really tough." • NOTES: Poole also had two hits for the Mustangs, who totaled eight as a team against Carson pitcher Jessica Beach...East improved to 584 in NPC play over the last four seasons. "We were fortunate to have them all come in at the same time," Waddell said of seniors White, Nesbitt, Kayla Kirk, Megan Kluttz and Mallory Drew. "They all have played a major role for us... Carson will host a first-round game of the conference tournament on Monday. The opponent had yet to be determined. Steffi Sides hustles down the first base line.

evidence to find Cook guilty of the accusation. The verdict was first reported by the News & Advance of Lynchburg. VIKINGS STADIUM ST. PAUL, Minn. — Gov. Mark Dayton said Friday he met privately with Minnesota Vikings owners Zygi and Mark Wilf to discuss state funding of a new football stadium, and that he hoped a site would be picked soon as the list of possibilities narrowed to two. Dayton met with the Wilfs late Thursday. The team owners also met with officials in Ramsey County, where several county board members have been pushing the idea of putting the stadium on the site of a former Army ammunition plant in suburban Arden Hills, about 10 miles north of St. Paul. “We’re very close to a deal,” said County Commissioner Rafael Ortega, who along with colleagues has suggested a half-cent county sales tax increase to help pay for stadium construction. But Ortega’s colleague, Commissioner Tony Bennett, said that about $100 million in costs needed to upgrade the transportation infrastructure around that site seemed to be hanging up a final deal. The Wilfs also met Friday with elected officials in Minneapolis, where putting a stadium at or near the team’s current home — the Metrodome — is the other live option. Minneapolis City Council President Barbara Johnson did not return a call seeking comment Friday. Minneapolis leaders have said they’re unwilling to levy a city sales tax, but stadium supporters have said other local financing options are part of the discussion. “I said I hope that we could get this narrowed down to one site as soon as possible,” Dayton said of his meetings with the Wilfs. Vikings spokesman Lester Bagley said the Wilfs left the state late Friday afternoon but that negotiations were continuing. “We’re still at it, we’re still working,” Bagley said. He said the team was looking for “the best possible deal for our fans and the state of Minnesota.” APPLEWHITE DUI SAN DIEGO — Police say San Diego Chargers linebacker Antwan Applewhite was arrested for investigation of DUI on Friday morning. Lt. Andra Brown says an officer working a DUI patrol pulled over Applewhite shortly before 2:30 a.m. in Pacific Beach. He was booked into county jail and later posted $2,500 bail.
BASEBALL ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Tampa Bay Rays manager Joe Maddon thinks Major League Baseball should examine controversial calls this season to see whether expanded instant replay would have an impact on those situations. Maddon was tossed Wednesday night after the umpires got together and reversed Joe West’s safe call on a tag play by Blue Jays first baseman Adam Lind on Tampa Bay’s Sam Fuld. The call completed an inning-ending double play, and Maddon was ejected when he tried to argue. MLB is leaning toward expanding replay for the 2012 season to include trapped balls and fair-orfoul rulings down the lines. Only home run calls are currently reviewable.
BOXING
COLLEGE BASKETBALL COLLEGE PARK, Md. — After sweating through crisp white shirts and expensive suits for more than three decades, Maryland basketball coach Gary Williams is ready to take it easy. Williams announced his retirement, saying “it’s the right time” for him to end a career in which he led his alma mater to the 2002 national championship. Williams coached for 33 years, the last 22 at Maryland, where he played from 1964-67. His career record is 668380, including 461-252 at Maryland. Under his direction, the Terrapins went to the NCAA tournament 14 times, won or shared three Atlantic Coast Conference titles and reached the Final Four twice. VERNON, Conn. — Connecticut swingman Jamal Coombs-McDaniel, who was recently arrested on drug charges, plans to transfer from the national champions,
the school said. UConn coach Jim Calhoun made the announcement in a news release, hours after the sophomore from Boston’s Dorchester neighborhood had a court appearance on marijuana charges postponed. The 6-foot-7 forward was arrested April 21 on campus and charged with two misdemeanors, possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia. Police said he and two other people were found with 5.6 grams of marijuana, a marijuana grinder and a package of cigars used to smoke marijuana.
AUTO RACING INDIANAPOLIS — The Donald is giving up one race, perhaps so he can focus on another. Real estate mogul Donald Trump said he will not be the celebrity pace-car driver for the Indianapolis 500 on May 29, pulling out because it would be “inappropriate” given that “he may be announcing shortly his intention” to run for president. Trump, whose replacement driver could be fourtime Indy winner A.J. Foyt, also said his busy schedule

would make it impossible to fulfill the required practice sessions during race week. Trump’s decision shut down a brewing controversy that some race fans contended could distract from the 100-year anniversary of the first 500.
ATHLETES IN POLITICS HADDONFIELD, N.J.— Track and field legend Carl Lewis found a court willing to help him get into the race for the New Jersey state Senate. There’s a chance his run will be fleeting. A three-judge panel of the Philadelphia-based U.S. 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that Lewis’ name should be included when the ballots are printed for the 8th Legislative District Democratic state Senate primary. While the three-judge panel granted that emergency request, it didn’t make a final ruling on whether he’s eligible for office. Republicans contend that Lewis does not meet the state requirement that a candidate live in New Jersey for four years before seeking a seat in the state Senate.

BRETT FAVRE
Retired Patriots linebacker Tedy Bruschi, exTennessee Titans coach Jeff Fisher and former Philadelphia Eagles tight end Chad Lewis will take on Mount Kilimanjaro — Africa’s highest mountain — next week. They’ll be joined by four injured service members to raise awareness for the Wounded Warrior Project. Disappointed he couldn’t take part in an NFL USO tour to Afghanistan, Bruschi had told league officials to keep him in mind for future projects. When he got the call a few months ago, he said “it was just something I couldn’t pass up.” The group will also meet in New York on Monday to visit ground zero.
LAS VEGAS — Floyd Mayweather Jr. is facing new misdemeanor harassment charges accusing him of threatening two homeowner association security guards outside his Las Vegas home. The charges filed in Las Vegas stem from an October dispute over parking with guards in the gated community where the undefeated prizefighter lives. Mayweather already faces a September trial on a misdemeanor battery charge stemming from allegations that he poked a 21-year-old guard in the face during a separate argument over parking tickets in November. He also faces unrelated felony charges in a domestic argument with his ex-girlfriend and two of their children last year.

The NFL notebook... HATTIESBURG, Miss. — Brett Favre says he might become a coach or work as a television analyst in the future, though he has no plans to enter either field anytime soon. The 41-year-old Favre ended a 20-year playing career after an injury-plagued 2010 season with the Minnesota Vikings. The former Southern Mississippi star has famously wavered on retirement over the last few offseasons. But the three-time NFL Most Valuable Player has told WDAM-TV in Hattiesburg on Thursday that he was “starting a new career.” Favre gave the interview at a football camp at Oak Grove High School. He says he’s spent the last several months traveling and following Southern Miss baseball. He submitted his retirement paperwork to the NFL in January. MENDENHALL UPDATE PITTSBURGH — The Champion sports apparel company has ended its endorsement deal with Pittsburgh Steelers running back Rashard Mendenhall over Twitter remarks the player made criticizing people for celebrating the death of Osama bin Laden. The Pittsburgh TribuneReview reported Friday that Champion “strongly disagreed” with the tweets and ended a new four-year contract the player recently signed. Mendenhall has endorsed the company’s products since entering the league in 2008. Mendenhall on Monday questioned the public celebrations of bin Laden’s death, and whether the World Trade Center towers were really brought down on Sept. 11, 2001, only by crashing two hijacked airliners into the buildings. Mendenhall has since clarified his remarks by saying Americans were insulted when some people celebrated the terrorist attacks masterminded by bin Laden, and that others might view Americans celebrating bin Laden’s death the same way. COOK NOT GUILTY LYNCHBURG, Va. — Minnesota Vikings cornerback Chris Cook has been found not guilty of pulling a gun on a neighbor in Lynchburg. General District Court Judge Edwin Burnette issued the ruling Friday after a 2hour bench trial. Cook was accused of a misdemeanor count of brandishing a firearm. Court records show the neighbor, Omar D. Goode, accused Cook of brandishing a .40-caliber, chrome-plated handgun on March 12 near the home of Cook’s mother in Lynchburg. The prosecutor, Robert Dean, said several witnesses agreed that an argument had occurred between the two men, but Cook denied pulling a gun. Dean said the judge concluded there was insufficient

Say Hey Kid turns 80 Associated Press SAN FRANCISCO — The Say Hey Kid is as popular as ever. The San Francisco Giants honored Willie Mays on his 80th birthday Friday night with a ceremony befitting a baseball legend, complete with a celebratory letter from President Barack Obama and a video tribute that included everyone from Commissioner Bud Selig to singer Tony Bennett. Mays was driven on a golf cart from center field to the mound and received a roaring standing ovation from a sellout crowd of more than 42,000 at AT&T Park. At one point during the montage, Mays was wiping his face and pulling down his old Giants cap. “I’m just so happy,” said Mays, wearing a black coat over a sharp gray suit, white shirt and orange tie on a chilly night by the bay. “When you have people like you guys to come out and cheer for me, it’s just a wonderful, wonderful feeling.” The video shown on the center-field scoreboard before the game against the Colorado Rockies highlighted Mays’ career. It also included birthday wishes from Hank Aaron, Bill Cosby and former President Bill Clinton.
Streaking Braves overcome Lee Associated Press PHILADELPHIA — Derek Lowe took a no-hitter into the seventh inning and the Atlanta Braves won their sixth straight game, beating Philadelphia 5-0 on Friday night despite Cliff Lee’s 16 strikeouts for the Phillies. Shane Victorino singled to start the seventh for the first hit off Lowe, and Placido Polanco followed with a double. The righthander then came out of the game with an apparent leg or foot injury. Lowe (3-3) appeared to hurt himself in the top of the seventh after singling and going to second on Chipper Jones’ single. Brian McCann had a pair of doubles and an RBI, and Alex Gonzalez had three hits and an RBI for the Braves. Lee (2-3) set the major league high for strikeouts this season, coming within one of the franchise record. The big league mark for a nine-inning game is 20. Reds 5, Cubs 4 CHICAGO — Jay Bruce hit a three-run homer and Brandon Phillips made some key defensive plays at second base. Edinson Volquez (3-1) labored through numerous jams in five-plus innings. He allowed six hits and four runs, walked four and threw a pair of wild pitches. Matt Garza (1-4), the Cubs’ biggest offseason acquisition, still has one win in his first seven starts and none in four outings at Wrigley Field. Astros 3, Pirates 2 PITTSBURGH — Wandy Rodriguez (2-3) allowed two runs over seven innings to win his fourth consecutive start against Pittsburgh and Houston scored twice in the eighth to snap a two-game losing streak. Houston managed only five hits over seven innings against Paul Maholm, but the first three batters of the eighth reached against a Pittsburgh bullpen that entered with the second-best ERA (2.63) in the Na-

Mets 6, Dodgers 3 NEW YORK — Andre Ethier extended his hitting streak to 30 games, but Jason Pridie’s three-run homer in the sixth inning carried New York Mets past Los Angeles in the opener of a weekend series between baseball’s most financially troubled teams. Pridie, a 27-year-old with just four big league at-bats before this year, hit his first career home run April 24. Jose Reyes tripled twice in a game for the second time this season and then doubled in the ninth. Cardinals 6, Brewers 0 ST. LOUIS — Jaime Garcia carried a per-
fect game into the eighth inning and finished with a two-hitter, dominating punchless Milwaukee. Garcia (4-0) issued a four-pitch walk to Casey McGehee with one out in the eighth. On the next pitch, Yuniesky Betancourt grounded a solid single to left to end the nohit bid. Garcia threw a four-hit shutout to beat the Padres in his first start, but hadn’t gone longer than six innings in any of his next five outings. This was his third career shutout. Albert Pujols had a single, sacrifice fly and three RBIs for the Cardinals, who pounded a red-hot opposing pitcher.
Granderson cranks two into upper deck Associated Press ARLINGTON, Texas — Curtis Granderson homered twice into the upper deck, rookie Ivan Nova limited the Texas Rangers to two singles while pitching into the eighth inning, and the New York Yankees ended their season-worst three-game losing streak with a 4-1 victory Friday night. Even before Nova (3-2) threw his first pitch, Granderson put the Yankees ahead to stay. His 433-foot drive into the second level of seats high above the Rangers’ bullpen in rightcenter made it 2-0 in the first. He hit his AL-leading 10th homer in the seventh, a towering solo shot closer to the rightfield line but still in the upper deck. Nova struck out one, walked one and gave up an unearned run. Athletics 3, Royals 2 KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Gio Gonzalez pitched seven effective innings and the Oakland Athletics ruined Eric Hosmer’s much-anticipated major league debut. Gonzalez (4-2) settled down after allowing Alex Gordon’s
homer in the first, holding Kansas City to two runs and four hits. He lasted at least six innings for the sixth time in seven starts. Hosmer made his first start at first base for Kansas City after hitting .439 at Triple-A Omaha, the highest average of any minor league regular. He went 0-for-2 with two walks. Sean O’Sullivan (1-2) was almost as good as Gonzalez, but Oakland got to him for three runs in the fifth. The right-hander still managed a career-high eight innings, allowing five hits and one walk. Hosmer, the third overall selection in the 2008 draft, received a standing ovation before his first at-bat. Rays 6, Orioles 2 BALTIMORE — James Shields pitched three-hit ball into the eighth inning and Brandon Guyer homered in his first big league at-bat. Johnny Damon also connected for the Rays, who are 17-6 since a 1-8 start that included three straight losses to Baltimore to open the season. Shields (3-1) gave up one run, struck out five and walked three while improving to 3-0 with a
1.12 ERA in his last five starts. The most glaring flaw in his performance was a homer by Derrek Lee in the sixth. In his previous three games against the Orioles, Shields was 0-3 with a 6.48 ERA. Guyer became the only player in Rays history to homer during his first plate appearance in his major league debut. Recalled from Triple-A Durham earlier in the day, Guyer drove a 3-1 pitch from rookie Zach Britton (5-2) into the left-field seats with a runner on to make it 3-0 in the second inning. Twins 9, Red Sox 2 BOSTON — Trevor Plouffe hit his first homer of the season and Scott Baker pitched eight strong innings. Minnesota scored twice on balks and took advantage of a pair of errors by the Red Sox, who have allowed 21 runs in their last two games. Baker (2-2) allowed seven hits, struck out eight and walked one for the Twins, who have won three straight for just the second time this season. J.D. Drew homered in the second and Adrian Gonzalez went deep in the fourth, but that
was all the offense for Boston, which has lost three straight. Red Sox manager Terry Francona was ejected in the second inning after Tim Wakefield (0-1) was called for a balk. Wakefield allowed eight runs, six earned, and nine hits in 4 13 innings. Blue Jays 7, Tigers 4 TORONTO — Adam Lind homered and drove in two runs and Jesse Litsch struck out a career-high nine. Lind had an RBI single off Phil Coke (1-5) during a threerun first and added a solo drive to center in the eighth, his seventh of the season. Toronto’s first baseman extended his hitting streak to 11 games and is batting .477 (21 for 44) over that span. Lind, who came in tied with three other players for the AL RBI lead, went 2 for 5 as the Blue Jays collected a seasonhigh 15 hits. Lind has 27 RBIs. Litsch (3-2) won for the second time in three starts since being recalled from Triple-A Las Vegas on April 25. The right-hander allowed one run and four hits in 61⁄3 innings and walked three.

Frazier putting time to good use Associated Press
MINNEAPOLIS — As a first-time head coach with an almost completely new offensive staff, the NFL lockout couldn’t come at a worse time for Leslie Frazier. The new Minnesota Vikings coach would like as much time as possible to get his players and coaches together, to get everyone used to the changes as the franchise moves on from the Brad Childress era. Frazier and the rest of the staff are barred from meeting with players while the lockout is in place, not to mention holdFRAZIER ing the valuable organized practices that new coaches depend on to set their agenda for the upcoming season. For now, Frazier is trying to make the most of all the extra time on his hands. He hired five new coaches on the offensive side of the ball, including new coordinator Bill Musgrave. The new staff is taking this time to meet, look at film of the players on their roster and ensure they’re all on the same page whenever the lockout ends. “If there has been a positive, that’s probably been the positive that our coaches, and our new staff in some areas, have been able to get some work done where they may not have been able to otherwise,” Frazier said in a recent interview with The Associated Press. The Vikings haven’t spoken in much specifics about the new offense that Musgrave is bringing from Atlanta, but it is expected that there will be noticeable changes from the West Coast system Childress and former offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell ran for more than four seasons. Musgrave said he will tailor his offense to Pro Bowl running back Adrian Peterson and try to make the transition as seamless as possible for rookie quarterback Christian Ponder, the team’s first-round draft pick. “Offensively, there will be
more changes,” Frazier said. “But not to the point where a Percy Harvin or a Visanthe Shiancoe comes in and goes, ‘Man, we have to learn an entire new offense.’” Musgrave is meeting with new quarterbacks coach Craig Johnson, running backs coach James Saxon, offensive line coach Jeff Davidson and holdovers George Stewart (receivers) and Jimmie Johnson (tight ends) so they can hit the ground running. “For us, I think that’s a big deal because we’re a new staff in some areas,” Frazier said. “So the offensive coaches will get a chance to see how Bill would install our offense. They’ll get a chance to experience that now, in May or June, as opposed to August right before our first preseason game or third preseason game. So that’s the plus side of what we’re going through.” In addition to the meetings on the new offensive philosophy, Frazier said the coaching staff is trying to get a start on scouting their opponents for the upcoming season, assuming no games will be lost to the labor strife. The Vikings have already started film work on Week 1 opponent San Diego and are doing some extra work on division foes Green Bay, Chicago and Detroit. “We’re going to concentrate offensively and defensively a little bit harder — much sooner than we would if we were not in a lockout situation — on the San Diego Chargers, on our division,” he said. “So that’s the positive. It’ll allow us to get on some projects that wouldn’t have been able to get on until much later.” The Vikings are also at a disadvantage in a geographic sense. When the season ends, most of the players on the roster scatter to warmer climates. That means there aren’t the clusters of players hanging around to do informal workouts and practices like there are in Dallas, Miami, Houston and California. All the more reason that Frazier is hoping the labor fight gets resolved soon.
AssociAted press
Kobe Bryant and the Lakers have been the NBA’s most prominent team the past several seasons.
Lakers can save themsleves, not NBA Associated Press
Contrary to popular belief, the potential fall of the Lakers won’t topple NBA headquarters. Whether or not Los Angeles comes back from dropping the first two games at home to beat Dallas in the Western Conference semifinals, the league is already losing. Business is bad, Commissioner David Stern keeps reminding us, and that won’t change even if the NBA’s most popular team gets back to the championship round and faces a marquee opponent for a chance at a third straight title. — Los Angeles against LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Miami? That’s the sexiest matchup. — LA and Boston again? That story always sells. — Chicago, with the Lakers getting a chance to beat Phil Jackson’s old team in his last run? An easy hook. But what if none of those happen? What if Dallas finishes off the champs, then loses in the next round, leaving reporters everywhere scrambling to figure out the best flight schedules into Oklahoma City or Memphis? What if none of the East
powers survives and instead it’s the Atlanta Hawks, who struggle for attention in their own city? For the league, the answer is not much. Yes, a Hawks-Grizzlies final might be a ratings disaster, but that is ABC’s problem. The NBA already has a longterm contract with its national TV partners, so it’s getting paid whether anyone is watching or not. Lakers tickets do cost more than in Memphis or Oklahoma City, so there would be an obvious loss of gate revenue if the lights are turned off early at Staples Center. But the NBA is projecting leaguewide losses of $300 million this season, and those numbers were even higher the last two seasons, both of which ended with Stern handing the Larry O’Brien trophy to the Lakers. So even if everything goes perfectly from a ratings perspective, and Kobe Bryant is battling James and Wade in a seven-game championship series, Stern and deputy commissioner Adam Silver will quickly remind everyone that the players were guaranteed 57 percent of revenues, leaving the league too small a share to do business. In fact, another championship for the Lakers, or some
other big spender, could show why owners might shut the NBA down this summer until they can implement a new system that lets the little guys compete, too — precisely because the Lakers and Heat can’t save the NBA on their own. Stern refused three years ago to give reporters the answer they craved when he was repeatedly asked what it meant for the Lakers and Celtics, the league’s greatest rivals, to be meeting again in the finals, declining to put any added importance on the matchup. The reason was probably because he took so much heat a few years earlier, when he said his ideal finals matchup was “Lakers vs. the Lakers.” And while Lakers-Celtics attracts more casual fans, it won’t attract enough dollars this time around to turn a profit — and Stern insists it’s time that the NBA does that. “We’re not going to lose any money,” he said this week in Chicago. “I’m not going to be commissioner of a league that is comfortable (losing money). Because I don’t have a group of owners who find it acceptable for me to have that conversation with them. You don’t have $4 billion worth of revenue and pay out over $2 billion in salaries and benefits
to lose money. It’s something that we have sort of gotten used to as the revenues have gone up, et cetera, but the world has changed about the prospects for all franchises.” In the end, another Lakers title can only reinforce why the last game of the finals might be the last NBA basketball for a while. Stern says the new business model must allow for all teams to profit and compete, and the Lakers, with a payroll of more than $90 million, can certainly do both better than most clubs. The players argue good management trumps a bigger market, a case that’s helped if Oklahoma City, which owes its success to smart, patient building rather than spending, goes on to play for the title. If it does, the league and ABC will try to generate hype around the Thunder’s Kevin Durant, the league scoring leader the last two seasons. Yet Durant can’t match the notoriety of James, whose lone finals appearance in 2007 was the last involving smaller markets. San Antonio’s sweep of Cleveland went down as the lowest-rated ever. So maybe the league would prefer a team like the Lakers to win again, if only to avoid the embarrassment of a ratings debacle.

An iraqi man reads a newspaper with front page headlines reporting the killing of al-Qaida leader osama bin Laden in Baghdad, iraq. the news headline, in Arabic, reads: ‘the Killer is killed.’
Islamic world quiet as bin Laden age closes BY BRIAN MURPHY Associated Press
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — In life, Osama bin Laden was ingrained in the Muslim consciousness in countless ways: the lion of holy warriors, the untouchable nemesis of the West, the evil zealot who soiled their faith with blood and intolerance. In death, however, the voices across the Islamic world are now relatively muted in sharp counterpoint to the rage and shame — or hero-worship — that he long inspired. For some, the account of bin Laden’s death during a U.S. raid early Monday on his Pakistan compound is still too much to accept. One post on a militant website asks: “Has the sheik really died?” But a more complex explanation for the relative quiet on the Muslim streets lies, in fact, on those same streets. The pro-democracy uprisings across the Arab world suggest to many that al-Qaida’s clenchedfist ideology has little place for a new generation seeking Westernstyle political reforms and freedoms — even though al-Qaida offshoots still hold ground in places such as Yemen and Pakistan. “Bin Laden died in Egypt before he was killed in Pakistan,” said Abdulkhaleq Abdullah, a professor of political science at Emirates University. “The young people who successfully challenged the status quo with peaceful means proved change the bin Laden way — the violent way, the jihad way — did not come.” Lebanon’s caretaker Prime
“Any Arab or Muslim who believes that terrorism is destructive and harmful to Arabism and Islam, cannot but receive the news of the fate of Osama bin Laden with feelings of sympathy toward the family of thousands of victims who died in different areas of the world because of him or by his orders.” SAAD HARIRI Prime Minister of Lebanon
Minister Saad Hariri — who took office after his father Rafik Hariri was killed in a 2005 truck bombing in Beirut — said bin Laden's death serves as something of a moment of silence for those killed by al-Qaida or groups that borrowed their violence creed. “Any Arab or Muslim who believes that terrorism is destructive and harmful to Arabism and Islam, cannot but receive the news of the fate of Osama bin Laden with feelings of sympathy toward the family of thousands of victims who died in different areas of the world because of him or by his orders,” said a statement by Saad Hariri. Even in Iraq, there have been few public outpourings of happiness or grief in a country that has suffered years of relentless bombings and attacks by al-Qaida-linked groups targeting American forces or supporters of the U.S.-backed government. A Baghdad-based political analyst, Hadi Jalo, said it appears to reflect a shift in Sunni insurgent groups that once called for a medieval-style Islamic caliphate in Iraq. They now are increasingly plotting ways to influence Iraq's
political world with U.S. troops scheduled to leave by the end of the year. “Iraq today is different from Iraq in 2004, 2005 and 2006,” Jalo said. “If the death news came at that period, we would see mourning ceremonies in different areas where al-Qaida insurgents were active.” In neighboring Iran — which backed the Shiite militant foes of Iraq’s al-Qaida militants — bin Laden’s death brought little public reaction, but was used by the Islamic rulers to jab at Washington. A commentary Wednesday by Iran’s semiofficial Fars News Agency mocked the epic costs of the near decade-long hunt for America’s most-wanted figure and its wars in the region. “American lives are being lost. Innocent civilians are being killed. Several of the conflicts appear to be primed to go on for a long time,” said the agency, which is closely aligned with Iran's powerful Revolutionary Guard. The lack of major public outpourings or declarations from alQaida also add another layer of guesswork about its future. Most assume that bin Laden’s top aide,
Egyptian-born Ayman al-Zawahri, is the apparent al-Qaida heir. There have been only isolated calls for quick revenge against the United States from protesters or on jihadist websites. Just hours after bin Laden's death was announced, however, CIA director Leon Panetta warned that "terrorists almost certainly will attempt to avenge" the killing of the mastermind behind the Sept. 11 attacks. “Bin Laden is dead,” Panetta wrote in a memo to CIA staff. “Al-Qaida is not.” In Pakistan’s southern city of Karachi on Wednesday, about 1,000 mourners joined prayers for bin Laden arranged by a militant-linked charity. But there have been few other protests in the country that bin Laden may have used as his fugitive base for years. In bin Laden's pre-9/11 stronghold, Afghanistan, many people still refused to believe that he was dead despite Washington's assertions of positive DNA tests. On Wednesday, President Obama said the U.S. will not release the photo of bin Laden’s body that was taken after he was killed. “I don’t think he’s dead,” said
Salam Jan Rishtania, a 26-yearold student in Kandahar.”"I don’t trust the Americans because they are playing games over here. This may be part of their game.” Still, there were some acts of homage in other parts of the Muslim world. About 25 people in the Gaza Strip held pictures and posters of bin Laden on Tuesday. On the podcast channel of the pan-Arab broadcaster Al-Jazeera, some messages praised bin Laden among many others denouncing him. “You are the sheik of the mujahedeen (holy warriors). God may grant you heaven,” said one post. Another read: “You are in heaven, Sheik Osama.” Ismail Haniyeh, the prime minister of Hamas-controlled Gaza, portrayed bin Laden as the victim of a state-sponsored “terrorist act.” “We disagree with the vision of holy warrior Osama bin Laden, but we condemn this terrorist act,” Haniyeh told The Associated Press on Wednesday. “What the U.S. did is not a heroic action, but a targeted killing. ... To pursue and kill him in Pakistan, which is Muslim land, means for us a further intervention in the land of Islam.” But in Somalia, where a hardline Islamist group holds sway over large parts of the country, demonstrators marched defiantly through government-held parts of the capital, Mogadishu, and burned a flag they said represented al-Qaida. “Terror, terror go away,” they chanted. “Little kids want to play.|
Renowned preacher, author to speak at Hood commencement Dr. William H. Willimon, bishop of the North Alabama Conference of the United Methodist Church, will be the commencement speaker at Hood Theological Seminary on Saturday, May 14, at 10:30 a.m. “We are very fortunate to have Bishop Willimon as this WILLIMON year’s speaker,” said Dr. Albert Aymer, president of the seminary. “He is a highly respected, well-published theologian and has been recognized as one of the twelve most effective preachers in the English-speaking world by Bay-
lor University. The entire Hood Theological Seminary community is greatly honored to have a religious leader of his stature with us on this most important day in the lives of our graduands.” Willimon has been a bishop of The United Methodist Church since 2004. He leads the 157,000 Methodists and 792 pastors in North Alabama. For 20 years he was Dean of the Chapel and Professor of Christian Ministry at Duke University. He has been awarded honorary degrees from a dozen colleges and universities. In 1992, he was named as the first Distinguished Alumnus of Yale Divinity School. He also serves on the faculties of Birmingham-Southern College as Visiting Distinguished Professor and as Visit-
ing Research Professor at Duke University Divinity School. He is the author of 60 books. His “Worship as Pastoral Care” was selected as one of the 10 most useful books for pastors in 1979 by the Academy of Parish Clergy. Over a million copies of his books have been sold. In 1996, an international survey conducted by Baylor University named him one of the Twelve Most Effective Preachers in the English-speaking world. His articles have appeared in many publications and he is Editor-at-Large for “The Christian Century.” He has written curriculum materials and video for youth, young adults, and adults. His Pulpit Resource is used each week by more than 8,000 pastors in the USA, Canada, and Aus-
tralia. A 2005 study by the Pulpit and Pew Research Center found that Bishop Willimon is the second most widely read author by mainline Protestant pastors. Willimon has given lectures and taught courses at many pastors' schools and at colleges and universities in the United States, Canada, Europe and Asia. These include the Belden Lectures at Harvard. In 1998, he served on the theological faculty of the University of Bonn, Germany and in 1991, he was Distinguished Guest Professor at the University of Muenster, Germany. His books have been translated into eight languages. He has served as vice chairman of the board of trustees, Wofford College; chairperson of
the University Council Committee for the Institute of Sacred Music at Yale; and on the board of overseers for Memorial Church, Harvard University, and the boards of Emory, Birmingham-Southern, and Huntingdon Colleges. He serves on the editorial boards of “The Christian Century,” “The Christian Ministry,” “Preaching, The Wittenburg Door,” and “Leadership.” Hood Theological Seminary, located at 1810 Lutheran Synod Drive and sponsored by the AME Zion Church, is a graduate and professional school where intellectual discourse and ministerial preparation occur in tandem within the framework of a community of faith. Its student body currently comprises persons from 16 different denominations.

Patients have right to correct errors in records Dear Dr. Gott: Does a patient have the right to question his or her medical records without retribution? I questioned my records after finding errors in them with the doctor’s head nurse. She corrected some of them but said she would have the office manager contact me in regards to other errors. The office manager refused to call to discuss my concerns. For example, I got turned down twice for long-term-care insurance because my records were not up-to-date and accurate. As a matter of fact, the head nurse told me that my records had DR. PETER not been updated in three or GOTT four years. My records indicated at one time I had congestive heart failure, which I never did. They coded my wife’s blood work with my identity. These are only a few examples that I discovered. I am sure there were more that I was unaware of. I sent several emails and made a phone call to the doctor’s office to follow up with me to talk about correcting my records. No correspondence back, so I requested the doctor call me and even set up a oneon-one appointment to resolve the issues at hand. WOW! What did I do that was wrong? Was I not supposed to question my records and have then updated and accurate? Apparently not. I did finally receive an email from the office manager, stating, “It appears from your concerns and multiple emails that the patient-
provider relationship has been damaged and that an issue of distrust has now been established, and that this notice will serve as termination of our patient/doctor relationship for both you and your wife.” They will provide emergency medical care and prescription refills for 30 days. We need to find a new physician, and they will forward our records to them. I was content with the service the doctor provided my wife and me. I was not questioning his ability and knowledge, nor did I distrust him as a doctor. I was concerned that my medical records were not accurate and were outdated. I was not happy with his staff that my records were inaccurate. What is your expert opinion and advice on all of this? Dear Reader: To begin with, I am appalled. How on earth can records be outdated by three or four years? Was everything recorded on a machine and the staff simply hasn’t had sufficient time to transcribe the information? Did your doctor write notes every time you had an office visit, or was some other method of documentation instituted? From where did the congestive heart failure originate? Were your records mixed up with someone else’s who might share your name? Really, where can you honestly put the blame? Do you think you are the only person in his practice who has this problem, or are other charts lacking current information and full of errors as well? My guess is that you have opened a can of worms that truly requires immediate follow-up. If your doctor is relying on his staff to record vital infor-
mation, someone has fallen down on the job, and it’s critical he be advised; after all, the ultimate responsibility falls on him. Perhaps he is completely unaware of the situation and just gave his staff a big pay raise when a more appropriate course of action might have been to investigate and, if justified, fire the person responsible. Medical records are serious business. The only way to be prepared for an incoming patient is to review the record to determine why he or she was last in, what the situation was, what medications were prescribed and the reason for the present appointment. If a seemingly young man is reported as having a bad ticker without justification, steps must be taken to correct all misinformation. What if a cardiac medication was prescribed to you and you didn’t take the time to question it? Talk about scary! Perhaps somebody simply wrote notes in your chart that should have been included in someone else’s notes. Errors occur and accidents happen, but plain stupidity is unacceptable! For your own well-being, I would find a new physician immediately and have him or her (with your signature for documentation) request your records. Then write to the physician via certified mail, return receipt requesting his signature, that you found it necessary to leave a practice you enjoyed because of his inept staff. Then inform your state medical board in writing of the situation. Dr. Peter H. Gott is a retired physician and the author of several books. His website is www.AskDrGottMD.com.

Which card collects the most tricks? to spades, or to hearts? Given South’s initial response, a spade looks like the better bet. However, which spade should you lead? Since you expect partner to have only four spades (surely with 5-5 in spades and diamonds, he would have led a spade), you should lead the spade jack. You must both unblock the suit and be able to lead twice through declarer. Note what happens. South probably covers with his queen, but your partner wins with his ace and returns the spade four to your king. Now you lead the two through South’s eight-six into the jaws of West’s nine-seven. Pretty!

Doc Searls, a columnist and author, wrote in his blog, “We play the hands of cards life gives us. And the worst hands can make us the best players.” At the bridge table, the defenders usually have the worst hands, but sometimes those limited resources are sufficient to defeat the contract. Occasionally, though, a defender must know which of his cards to lead at the key moment. In this deal, you are East. Against three no-trump, your partner leads the diamond five, fourth highest from his longest and strongest. South takes your seven with his 10 and runs the club jack. When you duck, he continues with the club 10, your partner discards the diamond three, and you win with your king. What would you do now?

Be friendly to all new people you meet in the next year, because several folks whose thinking and morals closely parallel yours could become very valuable friends and could contribute greatly to your happiness. Taurus (April 20-May 20) — There are indications that you could quickly overreact to something a friend does that you find objectionable. Later when you calm down, you’ll realize you took it the wrong way. Gemini (May 21-June 20) — It’s always wise to take measures to safeguard your valuables, but you might need to be especially careful to do so currently. Don’t leave your house or car unlocked, even for a short time. Cancer (June 21-July 22) — This could turn out to be a very bad day for rehashing volatile issues with anybody, but especially your mate. Once you open Pandora’s box, you’re not likely to be able to close it again. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Regardless of the adverse conditions with which you may have to contend, do everything you can to maintain a positive attitude. Succumbing to a negative reaction could make matters worse. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Correct any misunderstanding you have with a friend immediately. If you allow it to fester, you could start thinking about evening the score somehow, which would only make matters worse. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — If you find yourself in a position of authority, don’t do anything to make others think you’re throwing your weight around. Heavy-handed tactics will boomerang on you. Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — Try to stay on the straight and narrow, because any broad mood swing will distort your judgment and throw you way off-course, making you either too pessimistic or unrealistic. Sagittarius (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — Don’t take on any new long-range financial obligations if you can help it. If things do not go the way you think, it would put you in a severe financial bind. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — If the very people who are usually quite supportive of your actions are opposed to what you want to do, take a second look at matters. They may see things you don’t. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — Be sure to take the time to maintain good relationships with co-workers by praising their accomplishments if they’ve done something special. Don’t let them feel taken for granted. Pisces (Feb. 20-March 20) — Taking a financial risk on a venture or enterprise that is considered chancy could knock the stuffing out of your wallet. Make sure you are in control of matters, not the other way around. Aries (March 21-April 19) — Regardless of how upset you might get over a remark or action of a loved one, don’t speak out on it in front of outsiders. Resolve all domestic rumbles within the confines of your home. Trying to patch up a broken romance? The Astro-Graph Matchmaker can help you understand what to do to make the relationship work. Send for your Matchmaker set by mailing $3 to Astro-Graph, P.O. Box 167, Wickliffe, OH 44092-0167.

One system pushes off the East Coast while another approaches from the Central US on Saturday. A low pressure system over the Pacific Northwest will continue pushing troughs of low pressure eastward and into the Plains. This system has little moisture associated with it, but will have sufficient energy to produce widespread scattered showers over the Midwest and Mid-Mississippi River Valley. By evening, the system will advance eastward and move up the Ohio River Valley. These rain showers will be significantly less intense than the heavy rains last week. However, flooding will remain of concern as water levels are already at record high levels. Behind this system, wet weather persists over the Pacific Northwest as a low pressure system in the Pacific Ocean continues pushing ample moisture onshore. This kicks up more widespread scattered showers across Oregon and Washington. As this moisture reaches well into the Northern Rockies, expect high elevation snow showers to develop. Snowfall accumulation will be light. To the south, a ridge of high pressure remains the dominating weather feature for the Southwest. This will allow for more warm, dry, and windy conditions. This ridge advances eastward into the Southern Plains and Southeast, bringing hot and dry conditions with it. The Southern and Central Plains will see highs in the 90s to near 100.

How to make your deck an outdoor living room (ARA) - Nothing beats relaxing in the shade or entertaining a group of guests on your own private deck. When you take the time to plan your deck for the way you live, the result can be a versatile living space and a value-boosting addition to your home. Trent Boozer, publisher of Extreme HowTo magazine, notes his readers have made it clear that decks are one of the top projects they love to design and build. The Internet is full of deck plans and planning tools - and with the range of decking products and accessories on the market, every deck can take on a personality of its own, he says. Personalization is what makes the deck an extension of the home, says Rick Preble of Deckorators, the leading deck accessory brand that embraces the concept of deck personalization. “The idea of an outdoor living room has really materialized as people have reattached to their existing homes,” says Preble. A cost-effective way to add square footage and upgrade your lifestyle without moving is with a deck. With all the deck products and accessories available today, homeowners can customize their outdoor rooms.” Deckorators has made the process of mixing and matching different deck accessories and building materials easy with a new, easy-to-use online design program: the Deckorators’ Deck Visualizer. The online tool is free and provides homeowners a way to visually discover the different design options they like best for
personalizing a deck. The Deck Visualizer allows the user to set the virtual deck environment to a lake or backyard view and then change the deck accessories for limitless combinations. Users can select the color or grain of composite or wood decking, select the style of metal or even glass balusters, add baluster infill centerpieces, change railing colors, and add post caps, lighting options and even stone. “This deck design program is fun for homeowners to use and is a great tool for deck planning,” says Preble. “We work with hundreds of deck builders, and they appreciate having this when working with clients. It allows both consumers and deck builders to visualize different options and choose deck products prior to constructing a deck.” The North American Deck and Railing Association website (nadra.org) is another good place for consumers to start when gathering information for a deck build. The organization has a large gallery of photographs of decks that have received national awards for design or construction. Michael Beaudry, executive vice president of NADRA, says consumers are definitely hungry for deck design ideas and information on new products. NADRA offers resources to help consumers with deck and rail design and deck safety. The organization’s website also provides access to more than 1,750 different building products companies.
Personalizing your deck has become possible thanks to constant product innovations, like Deckorators Postcover and Duo-Connector deck railing accessories.
Homeowners who want to build or who are renovating an existing deck will find new trends for 2011. One material making its move onto decks is stone. Deckorators cast stone Postcovers, which install over rail posts, are one new product in high demand. The postcovers provide the same look and feel as natural stone columns, but are designed to install over basic wood posts. Postcovers are hand-painted to look like cobblestone, fieldstone or stacked stone. The simulated product costs far less than real masonry work and makes it possible for do-it-yourselfers or contractors to add
simulated stone columns to a deck. “Stone or simulated stone on a deck has become possible with new products, and it’s another example of interior design trends and the mixing of various elements making their way to outdoor living areas,” Preble says. Experts agree that putting the time into planning your deck up front and knowing what your product options are is the best way to ensure you end up with a space your family will embrace as a true outdoor living room.

BUSINESS HIGHLIGHTS Businesses delivered a jolt of strength to the economy by creating 268,000 jobs in April, the biggest monthly total in more than five years. The gains were solid across an array of industries, even beleaguered construction. It was the third month in a row of at least 200,000 new jobs. The private sector has added jobs for 14 consecutive months. Even a slight rise in the unemployment rate to 9 percent appears to be a quirk. Oil prices fell 15 percent this week, the steepest decline in two and a half years, after hitting a two-year high of $114.83 in Monday trading. It closed Friday at $97.18. The plunge was part of a sharp sell-off across in commodities this week. Analysts say investors — demonized as “speculators” by some market watchers — got nervous that oil, metals and grains had risen over the past few months to unrealistic heights. Their rush to sell knocked silver prices down 28 percent, sugar down 13 percent and natural gas down 10 percent. Consumers used their credit cards more in March, marking
only the second increase in the more than two years since the height of the financial crisis. The Federal Reserve said consumers increased their total borrowing by $6 billion in March, the sixth consecutive monthly gain. Consumers borrowed more to finance car loans for the eighth straight month. And a category of borrowing that includes credit card use rose for only the second time since August 2008. More frequent credit card purchases could be a sign that consumers are feeling more confident about the economy. Mortgage buyer Fannie Mae reported a loss of $8.7 billion for the January-March quarter, and asked for an additional $8.5 billion in federal aid. The new request is more than three times the $2.6 billion in government aid it sought in the final three months of last year. The loss was caused by declining home prices around the country, Fannie Mae said. Prices declined on average 1.8 percent, leading more homeowners to default on loans. The government rescued Fannie Mae and sibling company Freddie Mac in September 2008.
