Rick Anicetti out at Food Lion parent company B Y S HELLEY S MITH
ssmith@salisburypost.com
Just months after being promoted, longtime Food Lion executive Rick Anicetti is out at parent company Delhaize America, according to a press release Friday. The press release said Anicetti “will leave the organization, effective May 21, 2010,” but it provided no other information about his exit from the company, and it did not give a reason for his departure. When asked for more information, Delhaize spokeswoman
Christy Phillips-Brown said, “Rick’s departure from the company follows a series of conversations with CEO Pierre-Olivier Beckers over a long period of time.” Beckers is president and CEO of BelgiumANICETTI based Delhaize Group and its subsidiary Delhaize America. Phillips-Brown said the changes
were effective immediately. In the press release, Becker said, “I want to thank Rick for his significant contributions to the company, both as CEO of Food Lion LLC and as CEO of Delhaize America Shared Services, where he helped to lay strong foundations for Delhaize America’s further development.” Anicetti had been promoted in a major restructuring of the company’s top management in February. Formerly CEO of Salisburybased Food Lion, he was, until Friday, executive vice president of
Delhaize Group and CEO of Delhaize America Shared Services, which also includes Bloom, Bottom Dollar and Hannaford stores. According to the press release, Carol Herndon, who had been serving as senior vice president of accounting and finance for Delhaize America, is now the company’s chief administrative officer, reporting to Beckers. Beckers said in the release that Herndon will bring a “wealth of experience and the strong leadership credentials she has earned during her long standing and suc-

cessful career with the company.” According to Delhaize Group’s website, Anicetti began his career with Hannaford Bros. Co. in 1980 in a retail management program, working his way up over the years. He joined Food Lion in August 2000 as chief operating officer and was promoted to president in September 2001. Anicetti could not be reached by telephone Friday. Delhaize shares fell $1.29, about 1.5 percent, Friday to $79.82. The stock has traded in a 52-week range of $63.91 to $85.42.
SBI gets Barber inquiry BY SCOTT JENKINS AND KATHY CHAFFIN news@salisburypost.com
Rowan County District Attorney Bill Kenerly has asked the State Bureau of Investigation to look into allegations that County Commissioner Jon Barber was drunk in his sixth-grade classroom at Southeast Middle School on Wednesday, the day before he resigned his teaching job. “I have talked to the SBI ... and I’ve asked them to kind of determine factually what happened two days ago and then get back to me with what the facts are, and then we’ll figure out where to go from there,” Kenerly said Friday. Barber resigned from the Rowan-Salisbury School System on Thursday. He told the Post he “just left early yesterday and told them I was pursuing other opportunities.” BARBER School system officials have said only that Barber resigned for personal reasons. Multiple sources told the Post, however, that Barber was removed from his classroom Wednesday morning by Southeast Principal Skip Kraft because of suspicion that he was intoxicated. Students at Southeast were taking end-of-grade tests that morning. Commissioners Chairman Carl Ford said

Organic farmer Colleen McDaniel is concerned that Monsanto has joined the N.C. Research Campus in Kannapolis.
But ag giant won’t use biotech in Kannapolis B Y E MILY F ORD
eford@salisburypost.com
KANNAPOLIS — Most people have never heard of Monsanto. But the company’s arrival at the N.C. Research Campus has alarmed some environmentalists and organic food proponents. The highest-profile tenant at the biotechnology complex in Kannapolis, Monsanto will build a 9,000-square-foot laboratory this summer in the Core Lab Building, the five-story campus centerpiece. Dole Food Co. chairman David Murdock owns the Research Campus, which includes branches of eight univer-
sities and more than a dozen private partners. One of the most controversial companies in the United States, St. Louis-based Monsanto is the world’s leading producer of genetically modified, or GM, seed and the herbicide Roundup. Monsanto has laboratories around the globe. In Kannapolis, the comMACISAAC pany will try to boost the nutritional content and taste of vegetables.
Documentary films accuse Monsanto of abuses ranging from forcing small farmers out of business to poisoning the environment. “I have concerns about Monsanto in general and the fact that they are coming to Kannapolis,” said organic farmer Colleen McDaniel, who leases a half-acre at the Cabarrus County incubator farm and serves as co-chair of the Kannapolis Environmental Stewardship Commission. “Their GM products are a risk to ancient seed stock that we’ve been using for hundreds and thousands of year,” she said. If the company grows genet-
ically modified crops in Cabarrus County, local farmers would have a difficult time earning organic certification for the same crops due to cross-pollination, McDaniel said. “It would be next to impossible for me to grow organic corn and soybeans,” she said. But Monsanto has no plans for growing fields in Cabarrus County and will not modify plant DNA at the Research Campus, said Dr. Susan MacIsaac, who will direct Monsanto’s work in Kannapolis. Instead, the company will use

Group claims Yadkin Riverkeeper illegally acting as lobbyist BY MARK WINEKA
mwineka@salisburypost.com
A loosely formed taxpayer group in Stanly County has filed a petition with the N.C. Secretary of State charging that Yadkin Riverkeeper Dean Naujoks is illegally acting as a lobbyist while also being an officer and employee of a nonprofit, charitable organization. Thomas M. NAUJOKS McCluskey, spokesman for the group, has asked Secretary of State Elaine Marshall to investigate Naujoks’ dual roles. “Charitable status does not al-

low an employee to be a registered lobbyist,” McCluskey said, emphasizing the word “registered.” Naujoks reportedly registered as a lobbyist April 1. The dual role “may seriously impact those contributing to a ‘charitable cause,’ when in reality the contribution would be supporting a paid lobbyist,” the group People Against Forced Takeover said in its press release. Naujoks was attending a National River Rally in Salt Lake City and issued a statement Friday afternoon. In it, he said several N.C. Riverkeepers and others with 501(c)(3) organizations have registered as lobbyists as a “precautionary measure.” “All of them retain their 501(c)(3) status and comply with

the N.C. Conservation Network, says, ‘If there’s any question about registering, the answer is register.’ ” Naujoks said. “It’s part of keeping our government process open and fair. “If you are lobbying and not registered, then that automatically will make you a bad lobbyist when it comes up and becomes public knowledge.”
EAST SPENCER — Ron Hines has resigned as chief of the East Spencer Police Department. Hines said he turned in his resignation around 4:45 p.m. Thursday. He had served as chief since October 2008. Town officials contacted by the Post said they didn’t know the resignation was coming. But Hines said simply, “It was time.” Hines, 44, joined the East Spencer Police Department full time in mid2008 after previously servHINES ing as a part-time officer. “I have enjoyed my time there and appreciate all the citizens and people that were helpful during my time,” he said. “I’d like to thank all the agen-

the law,” he said. “Considering Yadkin Riverkeeper has not spent any time in the Legislature this year engaged in direct lobbying, we clearly are complying with the law.” Naujoks said lobbyists are required to obtain a license from the N.C. Secretary of State if they spend up to 5 percent of their time within a 30-day period engaged in lobbying activity. “Dan Crawford, the lobbyist for

BARBER FROM 1A
Thursday he began receiving calls around 9 a.m. Wednesday from two parents of children in Barber’s classroom as well as a Southeast staff member. They told Ford the principal had removed Barber from the classroom because he appeared to be intoxicated. The parents who called Ford said their children sent them text messages describing the situation. According to the school system’s personnel policy, an employee can be required to submit to a bloodalcohol test when “reasonable suspicion” exists that the employee is violating policies prohibiting alcohol use at work. Foil said those tests are performed at a local clinic. Employees who violate the drug and alcohol policies can be disciplined or fired. Violations can also result in “referral for criminal prosecution” the policy says. “Reports are made to authorities if we feel there’s something criminal to report,” Foil said, “But if not, then no.” Sheriff Kevin Auten said Thursday his office wasn’t called by school officials. Ford passed along requests to look into the incident as a potential criminal matter to Auten. He turned it over to Kenerly because the Sheriff’s Office works closely with county commissioners. Kenerly said Friday he didn’t have a lot of information about the situation. “I haven’t personally interviewed any witness and, in fact, no citizen has called me with any information,” he said. “But I know ... that there is obvious public interest in what happened and whether there was any violation of law.” Kenerly said he doesn’t know whether Barber was required by school officials to take a blood-alcohol test. But if one exists, he “would certainly hope” the SBI obtains a copy of it for its inquiry. He expects to have a report from the SBI by the middle of next week, he said. Barber did not respond to messages from the Post seeking comment Friday. Other commissioners expressed support for Barber and for the SBI investigation. County Commissioner Raymond Coltrain, who was out of town when Barber resigned and was still out of town when he was interviewed Friday, called this week’s events unfortunate. Though Coltrain emphasized that he does not have the expertise to determine that Barber has an addiction to alcohol, he said, “If he has difficulty managing the substance of alcohol, then that’s where we have to stand behind him and be of help to him in that process.” Barber pleaded guilty to driving while impaired in June 2008 after being found in February of that year passed out in his car near the corner of Sherrills Ford and Long Branch roads. After being charged, he entered an alcohol treatment facility in Charlotte. Alcohol addiction is an illness, Coltrain said. “I know that society doesn’t seem to view it with as much empathy, if you will, as some oth-

er illnesses, but that’s what it is ... “I think we should not make any judgments or crucifixion at all. We should be in support of his efforts. Of course, it’s something only he can do, but we have to practice our Christian principles in this process by being in support of him.” As for Barber’s role as county commissioner, Coltrain said, “I hope he will continue to perform his responsibilities. I see no reason for him not being able to.” Commissioner Tina Hall said Friday she had not spoken with Barber or members of the Rowan-Salisbury Board of Education, but added, “If the allegations turn out to be true, it’s certainly disturbing on many levels.” As a retired school principal, Hall said, her foremost concern is for the students and their safety. “First of all, Jon is a teacher, and you wouldn’t expect a teacher to come to school intoxicated,” Hall said. “And if the students had to text-message parents, I wonder, were they afraid?” Hall said she hopes Barber can “get some help if this is true. ... I certainly wish him well and hope that he is able to get the kind of treatment that he needs to make himself whole again. Of course, our prayers go out for him, and we also hope that things are going well for the students at Southeast Middle School.” At this point, Hall said she is waiting for a report from the SBI. “Again, these are allegations,” she said. “I’m sure they’ll get to the source of it.” Hall said she did not know what the county board might do. The most it could do is censure Barber, according to Ford. “We’ll just have to wait to see what will transpire,” Hall said. Barber was the top votegetter in the Republican primary for county commissioner. Hall, who finished fourth in that race, will be in a runoff election June 22 with Vice Chairman Chad Mitchell, who came in third. When asked about the SBI investigation, Mitchell said, “The only thing that I’ve seen is that based on the comments of Kevin Auten yesterday, he didn’t see anything on the face of it that would be a chargeable offense. So I certainly respect the decision to turn that over to the SBI to look into.” Ford said Friday he had nothing new to say on the matter. He said Thursday he would “pray for Jon and hope for the best for him.” Barber, serving his first term as a county commissioner, told the Post Thursday he intends to remain on the board.

conventional plant breeding techniques to create bettertasting vegetables that pack a bigger nutritional punch. “There will be no biotech involved in the work that we’re doing at Kannapolis,” MacIsaac said. “We think that biotech has an important role, but we will not be doing that here.” Monsanto wants to improve the flavor of vegetables so people will eat more of them and receive health benefits, she said. Using state-of-the-art analytical tools at the Research Campus, the company can identify components of vegetables that contribute to flavor and then breed for those traits, she said. Until now, scientists have been limited in their ability to detect and measure these components, she said. “The tools have not been adequate,” she said. “That’s the benefit of being here on the campus.” Scientists have access to equipment they need to understand flavor and nutrition at the molecular level, she said. Monsanto uses biotechnology to give a plant a new trait, such as herbicide tolerance, said Riddhi Trivedi-St. Clair, public affairs manager. “We use biotechnology to confer a quality that a plant didn’t have,” she said. But work done at the Research Campus will focus on enhancing taste and nutrition, qualities already pres-

Naujoks called it a $200 expense for peace of mind, “and the forms are easy to fill out.” The petition to Secretary of State Marshall asks to bar Naujoks, an outspoken critic of Alcoa Power Generating Inc’s relicensing effort on the Yadkin River, from further lobbying or remove Yadkin Riverkeeper Inc. as a charitable organization with tax-exempt status. Interviewed Friday at his Richfield home, McCluskey said People Against Forced Takeover are citizens frustrated with Stanly County’s use of tax money toward confiscating Alcoa’s property — the dams and power-generating equipment that make up the federally licensed Yadkin Project. “There are probably about 20 of us altogether,” McCluskey estimated.

cies there that have helped us when we needed some assistance doing anything.” He said he was proud of re-establishing a mutual aid agreement with the Spencer Police Department, “which came in quite helpful a lot of times.” Hines, who lives in Winston-Salem, said he plans to “take me a big vacation right now,” then go back to work. “I’ve got other possibilities, other career opportunities ... nothing definite yet,” he said. “It was just time for me to move on.” When named chief of police in 2008, Hines became the fourth person to hold that title since 2005. He had previously worked for the High Point Police Department, the Davidson County Sheriff’s Office, the Thomasville Police Department and the Forsyth County Sheriff’s Office. In February, Hines received a Governor’s Award and a letter from Gov. Bev Perdue commending him for his service to East Spencer’s residents. At that time, Mayor John Cowan said he could not “think of one person who is more deserving of this award” and called Hines “a great asset to the police department and to the town of East Spencer.” Members of the town’s Board of Aldermen said they were surprised by the resignation. “This was a shock to me because I didn’t know anything,” said Aldermen John Noble, who is chairman of the town’s police committee. Noble said he learned of

ent in vegetables, Trivedi-St. Clair said. Monsanto can do that using traditional breeding methods, she said. Scientists will identify markers in plant DNA that are associated with traits of interest, MacIsaac said. They will use the markers to make selections during the breeding process. The company’s vegetable division in California will send plants to Kannapolis. While scientists at the Research Campus will do experiments and analysis, breeding and field testing will occur in California, MacIsaac said. The company could have an unlikely ally in Cabarrus County Manager John Day, an advocate for organic and locally-grown food. For decades, the food industry has bred crops for traits such as long shelf life and ease of mechanical harvesting, said Day, who serves on the N.C. Sustainable Local Food Advisory Council. “But as a result of that process, taste and nutritional value diminished,” he said. Developing better-tasting, healthier vegetables “can have a huge, positive economic impact” in Cabarrus County and North Carolina, he said. While Day acknowledged that he still has “deep concerns” about Monsanto’s genetically modified seeds and Roundup Ready crops, which are genetically engineered to tolerate weed-killing chemicals, he said he wants to collaborate with the company in Kannapolis. “If we can help them to
produce a better, more nutritious crop that respects the environment, then I’m happy to help,” he said. Others, however, are not convinced. The company’s announcement that it will not alter plant DNA in Kannapolis hasn’t swayed Bill Georgiou or Brad Hinckley. “This doesn’t justify the harm that they’ve done to this world,” said Georgiou, a local political activist. “This doesn’t change the fact that they created Agent Orange.” Murdock founded the Research Campus to help find a cure for cancer. Now the campus has welcomed a company that uses cancercausing chemicals, Georgiou said. “Where is the moral compass?” he said. Monsanto has a monopoly on seed and some crops, said Hinckley, an organic farmer. He was forced to use Roundup Ready corn when he raised cattle and hogs in Boone because there were no other varieties available, he said. Hinckley criticized the company’s liberal use of chemicals. “We don’t know what all these chemicals are doing to our children,” he said. Monsanto is not aware of opposition to the lab in Kannapolis, Trivedi-St. Clair said. “I’m not sure that we even have a good sense of that,” she said. No one from Kannapolis has complained to the company about Monsanto joining the Research Campus, she said. “If there is any opposition, it hasn’t come to us di-
rectly.” How to respond to public opposition would be a decision made at the corporate level, Trivedi-St. Clair said. But in general, Monsanto welcomes conversations with local people interested in agriculture, she said. “Monsanto is more than happy to engage with farmers every chance we get,” she said. When Monsanto joined the Research Campus last year, Dr. Steven Leath said he heard a few complaints. “A small but vocal part of the population is concerned about biotech enterprises,” said Leath, vice president for research for the UNC System. “But by and large, people are excited.” Leath worked with Monsanto at N.C. State University and helped recruit the company to Kannapolis. Monsanto has been “as good a corporate partner to the university as we could ask for,” he said. The company could collaborate with N.C. State in Kannapolis to develop super broccoli. Dr. Allan Brown’s team has produced a line of broccoli with higher levels of anti-carcinogen compounds. And he’s ready to compare notes with Monsanto. “We’re excited to have them on board and are looking forward to their expertise,” said Brown, whose office is next door to MacIsaac’s. Monsanto also has a fiveyear agreement with Dole, which will open a lab at the Research Campus, to investigate lettuce, broccoli, spinach and cauliflower.
The group has called into question the county’s spending $3.2 million to block Alcoa’s relicensing efforts. McCluskey says the amount represents 3.3 percent of the past year’s county budget, and it went toward public relations and advertising campaigns. “That’s a lot of money when they’re having to reduce the budget by 3 percent,” McCluskey said. “... All we are are people frustrated with commissioners and private development interests trying to steal Alcoa’s property.” McCluskey emphasized he personally had no connection to Alcoa. He said he is a retired accountant with IBM. “This thing is just sitting wrong with me,” he said. Some other members of the group are related to the original families who sold land to the company long ago for the reservoirs associated with the Yadkin Project, McCluskey said. “They’re upset the state could take land Alcoa bought,” he added. McCluskey, who said he
“stumbled across things” Naujoks was doing, said the riverkeeper should be independent and have no association with Stanly commissioners or development interests. McCluskey said his review of state and federal law suggests that Naujoks’ employment with a “religious and charitable” organization such as Yadkin Riverkeeper Inc. allows him to pursue only “insignificant lobbying” and prohibits lobbying for legislative actions. He said Naujoks has been lobbying the Legislature to pass Senate Bill 967, House
Bill 1455 and House Bill 1099 — all connected to establishment of a state trust to take over the Yadkin Project. Internal Revenue Service regulations stipulate that an organization with 501(c)(3) status may not attempt to influence legislation in any “substantial part of its activities,” the petition reads. Filed May 17, the petition also asks that Naujoks reveal what monies, if any, he has received for his lobbying efforts through the Water Rights Committee, Roger Dick of Uwharrie Capital Group and Stanly County.

the resignation Thursday night from Alderwoman Tammy Corpening. Corpening said she had no forewarning, either. “I’m personally heartbroken ... because the chief of police has resigned from East Spencer,” Corpening said. Noble and Corpening said no interim chief has been named by the board. Mayor John Cowan did not return a message from the Post seeking comment. Hines’ resignation comes as the town faces an audit of its use of grant funds received last year through the N.C. Governor’s Crime Commission. The Crime Commission began looking earlier this year into the town’s recordkeeping related to a nearly $540,000 grant for the East Spencer Gang Prevention Project. The state froze allocations to the town under the two-year grant while the inquiry went forward. Within the past couple of weeks, commission officials formally asked the State Auditor’s Office to perform an audit of the East Spencer program, said Craig Turner, assistant director of policy and planning with the Governor’s Crime Commission. “As far as I know, that’s in the process of being done,” Turner said.

Fisichella, who heads Vatican’s Pontifical Academy for Life, stressed there is no necessary clash between science and faith.
R124451
ROME (AP) — Catholic Church officials said Friday that the recently created first synthetic cell could be a positive development if correctly used, but warned scientists that only God can create life. Vatican and Italian church officials were mostly cautious in their first reaction to the announcement from the United States that researchers had produced a living cell containing manmade DNA. They warned scientists of the ethical responsibility of scientific progress and said that the manner in which the innovation is applied in the future will be crucial. “It’s a great scientific discovery. Now we have to understand how it will be implemented in the future,” Mon-

WASHINGTON (AP) — The White House’s leading candidate to replace Dennis Blair as national intelligence director is James R. Clapper, the Pentagon’s top intelligence official, current and former U.S. officials said Friday. Two current officials said another candidate is Mike Vickers, the Pentagon’s assistant secretary for special operations. But a Defense Department official said Vickers has not been contacted for an interview. All the officials spoke on condition of anonymity because a replacement for Blair has not been announced. Clapper currently is defense undersecretary for intelligence. President Barack Obama was already talking to candidates for national intelligence director’s job before Blair resigned Thursday under pressure from the White House. Obama spokesman Robert Gibbs said the president had spoken with a number of wellqualified candidates so he could have people ready in

Robertson Family Foundation approves $1.9M in grants Despite a volatile stock market, the Salisbury-based Blanche & Julian Robertson Family Foundation has completed the third largest series of grant approvals in its 13year history. More than $1.9 million in grants were approved in the foundation’s 2010 spring grant cycle with the Rowan-Salisbury Schools accounting for $685,874 of that total. The largest school grant was for $250,950, designated for an expansion of the 21st century model classroom project. These funds will raise the total of highly equipped classrooms from 25 to 36, providing “an engaging environment” where the students can gain “skills they will need to be successful in life,” said
Phil Hardin, the RSS system’s executive director of technology. Knox Middle School received the second largest educational grant — $150,000 — for developing its technological program to prepare sixth-grade students for the challenges that await them. Principal Rodney Burton stressed the goal of “closing the achievement gap with these technological resources.” The foundation received 120 grant applications, the largest number in its history. Members of the board of directors reviewed the requests and engaged in some long debates about how to allocate the dollars among the grants which were approved. Given the national economy, the
earning capacity of the foundation's assets and the nature of the requests, the decision-making was difficult, Executive Director Dave Setzer reported. Among the approved funds was the Continuing Support Grant Program, which includes six agencies receiving gifts on a rolling cycle of three years, followed by a board review and action of modification or renewal. Current members of the continuing grant program are the Community Care Clinic, $25,000; Communities In Schools, $50,000; Habitat for Humanity, $20,000; Meals on Wheels of Rowan, $35,000; Rowan County United Way Day of Caring program, $40,000; and Rowan Helping Ministries, $50,000.
The foundation was chartered in the fall of 1997 with an initial gift of $15 million by Salisbury native Julian H. Robertson Jr., now of New York City. He named the charitable foundation in memory of his parents, Blanche S. and Julian H. Robertson, Sr., longtime residents and civic leaders of Salisbury. Over the past 13 years, Robertson has increased his gifts to the foundation by an additional $21 million. The foundation has a current operating investment base of $18.2 million. In 13 years, the foundation has approved $23 million in grants, all of which have been given solely to agencies and organizations in Salisbury and Rowan County. The foundation board is chaired

Sheriff’s office clears Cabarrus animal control officer Internal investigation determines appropriate action taken in shooting of pit bull BY EMILY FORD
eford@salisburypost.com
CONCORD — The animal control officer who shot and killed a pit bull in a Concord neighborhood last month has been cleared of wrongdoing by the Cabarrus County Sheriff’s Office. An internal investigation “determined that the officer acted appropriately to protect the potential harm presented to the citizens by shooting the pit bull that could not be captured,” according to a press release from Sheriff Brad Riley. “This is a horrible situation,” Riley said. “No officer ever wants to be put in this situation, and no citizen ever wants their animal killed.” Cabarrus County Animal Control Officer Sean Austin acknowledges on a video posted online that the pit bull, a family pet named “Bella,” was not aggressive toward him and that he shot it because it was taking too

Mynatt keeps Chevy franchise CONCORD — Ben Mynatt Chevrolet Cadillac will stay in business after General Motors agreed to reinstate the franchise, the dealership said in a press release Friday. “We are thrilled to be back with General Motors,” Cyndie Mynatt, chief executive officer of Ben Mynatt Chevrolet Cadillac, said in the press release. “We are more determined than ever to serve our customers and continue a tradition that has lasted for more than 30 years,” Mynatt said. “We also want to thank all our supporters, who have been absolutely instrumental in the success of our campaign.” Ben Mynatt was among 2,000 dealerships nationwide that lost GM franchises last year as the company reorganized in an effort to return to profitability. But Congress passed a law requiring an appeals process for the dealers and many regained their franchises. Among them was Team Chevrolet in Salisbury, which learned in March it would keep its Cadillac franchise after initially being stripped of the brand by GM. Team was among 661 dealerships to have franchises reinstated by General Motors at that time, but Ben Mynatt wasn’t. Ben Mynatt and the community continued a campaign to save the Chevrolet Cadillac dealership, which included a petition, the website www.savebenmynattchevy. com and a Facebook page that attracted 600 fans. The company says hundreds of letters also poured into the dealership, including support from U.S. Sen. Richard Burr, U.S. Rep. Larry Kissell and N.C. Commerce Secretary Keith Crisco.

long to catch. But the sheriff’s report details six eyewitness accounts of the pit bull “displaying behavior and posture that lead those officers to believe the dog would bite someone if allowed to continue running at large,” the press release said. The sheriff’s office has reviewed the one and a half minute video of Austin arguing with dog owners Jessica Juba and Jeff Daniels, who recorded it using his phone and posted it on YouTube. “However, it is important to have the full 17-20 minute recording to make a fair assessment,” the sheriff’s office said. A lawyer has advised Juba and Daniels not to turn over the complete video and other information about the shooting, Juba said. The couple is considering filing a lawsuit. In the video, Austin’s comment “clearly shows he became frustrated,” the press release said. “Howev-
er, his comments are not reflective of the actions in the report, and those comments are being addressed.” Four law enforcement officers tried for one hour to contain the pit bull, the release said. Juba and Daniels say Austin tried for 20 minutes to capture their dog, who had escaped through a hole in the backyard fence while they were gone. “The four law enforcement officers on the scene decided that all means for containing the dog had been exhausted,” the release said. “The officers collectively decided that it was in the best interest of the public to shoot the unidentified, un-collared pit bull rather than allow it to continue running at large and potentially harming someone.” The family’s other pit bull, “Jaxson,” jumped willingly into an officer’s car and was not injured. The internal investigation includes eyewitness accounts from
Concord police officers, a Cabarrus County sheriff’s deputy, neighbors and victims. The victims are a woman and her 8-year-old neighbor who called 911. “They called out of fear of being bitten, as the two pit bulls had appeared in her backyard and placed them in a position where she felt she needed to put the 8-year-old behind her and back up against her neighbors’ fence,” the sheriff’s office said. According to the release, the woman told authorities, “I have no doubt in my mind that a few seconds longer would have spelled tragedy for (the child) and myself...Those dogs were closing in on us and there was nothing I could do.” Bella’s owners and others have criticized Austin for using deadly force instead of a tranquilizer gun. Austin was not certified to use a tranquilizer gun because no training

The pickup had not been damaged, and the electric motor was still in the back. The sheriff’s office brought in a dog to track down the suspect, but was unable to locate him. Deputies continued to patrol the area until later in the day, eventually spotting a man coming out of the woods and walking across Enochville Road. They apprehended the suspect, Chad Franklin Wall, and turned him over to the Cabarrus County Sheriff’s Department.

Jobless rate drops in April for 2nd month RALEIGH (AP) — North Carolina’s jobless are having more success looking for work as the unemployment rate dropped for the second straight month in April to 10.8 percent. The state’s Employment Security Commission reported Friday that the jobless rate fell from 11.1 percent in March and 11.2 percent in February, the worst since the current calculation method started in 1976. The improvement pushed North Carolina out of the top 10 states with the worst unemployment. Thirty-four states and the District of Columbia reported lower jobless rates in April, the U.S. Labor Department said Friday. There were 16,500 fewer people on North Carolina unemployment rolls in April than the previous month. The number of non-farm jobs increased by 7,500 in April. And evidence continued that people previously discouraged by the lack of work started looking for jobs again. The data also contained the good news that manufacturers added 700 jobs in the month and increase the hours worked by existing employees, a trend that could lead to more hiring.

courses have been available through Carolina Veterinary Consultants in Pittsboro since he joined the Animal Control Division, the release said. However, authorities apparently would not have used tranquilizers. Tranquilizing animals with heightened adrenaline levels can elevate their aggression, resulting in a higher risk of attack, the sheriff’s office said. “As an agency, we make every attempt to capture and contain an animal running loose,” Riley said in the statement. “However, human life and safety must always come first in our duty to protect the citizens of Cabarrus County.” Now, Cabarrus County Attorney Richard Koch is conducting his own review of the incident at the request of the county commissioners. Koch had planned to release his findings yesterday but extended the deadline “to allow sufficient time for independently verifying statements and claims that were presented by witnesses and by the sheriff office’s internal investigation,” according to a release from the county manager’s office. Koch is expected to complete his review by Thursday. He will schedule a news conference to release his findings and any recommendations. Koch will determine “if additional requirements or safeguards should be included in the Cabarrus County Animal Control Ordinance to better protect both pets and people,” the release said. According to County Manager John Day, Koch is reviewing the sheriff’s investigation as well as other documentation from witnesses. In Cabarrus County, the sheriff’s office is charged with enforcing the animal control ordinance set by the commissioners. While commissioners have no authority over the sheriff’s office, they do have authority to amend the ordinance. Juba, Bella’s owner, is the niece of former county commissioner Joni Juba.

DARTS AND LAURELS
Not so many regular Joes Laurels to the happy task of naming babies, something the Social Security Administration tracks. The news broke recently that the top names in the nation are Isabella and Jacob. While those names are high on the list in North Carolina, they are not the top names. Here, you’re more likely to meet Emma and William. (Other top newborn names in the state, in order of popularity, are Madison, Isabella, Ava and Abigail for girls; Jacob, Christopher, Noah and Joshua for boys.) Let’s hope they are with us for a long time. Judging by numbers from the North Carolina State Center for Health Statistics, today’s newborn Emmas and other female newborns have a life expectancy of about 77, while William and his cohorts’ life expectancy is 70. In that period of time, their names will have gone out of style and come back again. • • • Dart to the potential damage of what experts predict will be a worst-than-average hurricane season in the Atlantic basin. Forecasters predict 15 named storms between June 1 and Nov. 30, and it appears as many as eight could develop into full hurricanes — four with winds of 111 mph or better. That’s amazingly specific for something as unpredictable as weather, but meteorology has made big advances. The Institute for Business and Home Safety — a nonprofit organization supported by the property insurance industry — says a new, well-installed roof is one of the best forms of protection available. Other tips: Protect all exterior-wall openings (storm shutters, impact-resistant windows, bracing systems for garage doors); secure loose roof shingles; seal openings, cracks and holes; strengthen soffits and limit potential flying debris. For more specifics, go to www.disastersafety.org. • • • Laurels to the government agencies and private lenders that are helping distressed homeowners hang onto their houses. Attendees at this week’s Foreclosure Expo in Salisbury got some good information about potential aid and options from groups such as tthe North Carolina Housing Finance Agency, Legal Aid North Carolina, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and the North Carolina Housing Coalition. (The Salisbury Post was one of several co-sponsors of the event). Unfortunately, despite glimmers of improvement in the economy, many homeowners are still in danger of defaulting on their loans. A report earlier this week noted that the number of people behind on repaying mortgages hit a record high in the first quarter.
Common sense
(Or uncommon wisdom, as the case may be)
“If you want to walk on water, you have to get out of the boat” — John Ortberg
Moderately Confused
Deciding what change means T
he next time you hear a politician running for office demand “change” — which will probably be in about five minutes — ask yourself what he or she means. He or she will probably say Washington, meaning the federal government, must stop spending your hard-earned money and, beyond that, money the country does not have. He or she will undoubtedly insist that the federal government has gotten too big, too out of control and too intrusive into everyday life, (meaning government should only get involved in situations that don’t actually affect us very much). But the honest answer to what “change” means will be highly unpopular in many arenas. It means that the average age for retirement will have ANN be raised because Social MCFEATTERS to Security is taking more and more of the federal budget. We will each have to work longer (in lower paying jobs) and receive smaller benefits when retirement is finally on the horizon. Those of us who haven’t been able to save much will be far poorer than we expected. Changing the status quo will mean that Medicare will cover fewer health expenses and that those with means won’t get the benefits they expected. Doctors’ expenses paid by Medicare will be cut. If the Tea Partiers have their way, which is still an open question, the federal government won’t step into “social” issues such as gun ownership, abortion and what constitutes a good education. And the federal government won’t step into state immigration laws such as Arizona’s — which authorizes law enforcement to detain people who can’t immediately prove their citizenship - or local environmental problems, even where public hazards may exist. Tea Partiers say they do not want lawmakers to go to Washington to bring home money for local or state projects, no matter how necessary. Many Tea Partiers want corporations to pay less in taxes, don’t want Wall Street to face stiff new regulations and want capital gains taxes slashed. If the Tea Partiers have their way, there will be no new federal efforts to cut green-
LETTERS
house gas emissions to try to slow down climate change. (However, a new federal study by the respected National Research Council of the National Academy of Sciences said the debate is over: Climate change is real, driven mostly by the burning of fossil fuels and deforestation, and that Congress should act quickly.) Regulations will depend on state and local authorities, who may or may not be corrupt, as federal oversight diminishes and federal tax dollars disappear. Impoverished local jurisdictions will raise taxes or cut spending. Such services as street sweeping, street lights, leaf collection, trash pick-up and landscaping services, including mowing public areas, will be privatized and paid for by citizens or won’t exist at all. Children will pay for school buses and full-price lunches or walk and go hungry. If the Tea Partiers had had their way in recent years, there would be no health care law mandating coverage, more banks would have failed, the stimulus money, which is rebuilding roads and bridges around the nation, would not have been authorized and the country might not be recovering from recession. The Tea Party movement, which is basically the most conservative element of the Republican Party, is appealing in some ways and frightening in others. There is still no clear answer on what the partiers want to stand for and accomplish to make the country better, only what they oppose. Or, as Sarah Palin says, not just “the party of no, but the party of hell, no.” But then what? Rand Paul, the Tea party bastion that won the Republican primary for Senate in Kentucky, is honest about what to expect if the partiers take over. “In order to preserve our great nation, tough choices will have to occur. So many Republicans have been elected, and they say, ’We’ll cut your taxes, but then we’ll bring you home the pork.’ It’s coming to an end because we can’t manage the debt.” It’s going to be a fascinating election year, one that forces us to ask ourselves many difficult questions. • • • Scripps Howard columnist Ann McFeatters has covered the White House and national politics since 1986.

TO THE
Mexico’s president shows lack of respect for U.S. law In an AP story in the May 20, Salisbury Post there were quotes by the president of Mexico, Felipe Calderon, that were very disturbing. He warned that Mexico would reject any effort to criminalize migration. The key word here is migration. This word used instead of immigration implies that the free movement of Mexican citizens across the border between our countries is a right, not a priviledge. Understandably, immigration reform has been made a volitile subject in light of legislation passed by the state of Arizona. Regardless of personal opinions on the immigration debate, Felipe Calderon and the country he represents have no respect for the sovereignty of our nation or the laws that govern it. — Eric Upton China Grove
A special ceremony On Saturday, May 8, I had the privilege to be at the National Cemetery in Salisbury. The 88th Brigade New York Guard was there to pay special honor to Lorenzo Deming and all Union Soldiers who were buried there. Lorenzo Deming died at the Salisbury Prison on Feb. 8, 1865, of pneumonia at the age of 25. On Oct. 27, 1865, he was awarded the Medal of Honor. I was moved to tears by the Union Armies Burial Rights and the 88th Brigade’s professionalism and sincerity. Thank you for all that you do! To my friend, Rodney Cress, thank you for giving of your time, finances and energy the past 16 months to make this become a reality. Lastly, to the men and women who serve or have served this great nation, thank you. — Bill Godair Salisbury

Festival a savory success I wanted to publicly thank the Spencer Community Appearance Commission for making a special effort to make the downtown area look welcoming for the second annual Barbecue Festival last weekend. The flowers and hanging baskets are a great addition to our downtown. Thank you for all of the hard work and effort you put forward all year long. I am also so very happy that the Barbecue Festival was a success in Spencer! I was among the 2,000 people who had a great time and enjoyed the great food. Way to go, folks! Keep it up! — Richard Gazoo Spencer
Willing to forgive To whoever thought it was OK to steal religious items from my front yard the night before Mother’s Day, I am asking that you return them, with no questions asked. If you refuse to return them, I’ll forgive you and bless the mother who has them. My yard and porch don’t look the same, and to say I’m hurt would be an understatement. I’ll survive the loss because of my faith, and yes, I’ll forgive you for taking them. — Betty Martin China Grove
enerally, when waiting in a checkout line, I want the clerk to be friendly, but professional; engaging, but not overly chatty; and above all, I want the line to keep moving. Today, however, I didn’t mind waiting. When you see something that you have never seen — and you were pretty sure you had seen it all — you ought to pay attention. First, let me say this: Trader Joe’s is my favorite market, partly for the food, but mostSHARON ly for the kind of people who work RANDALL there. And if it weren’t my favorite store before, it would be after today. Here’s why. Today, two carts ahead of me at the checkout stand, a woman stopped rummaging through her purse and beamed at her daughter, a little girl of about 7 or 8, with long thick curls and smart brown eyes. The child was standing behind the counter with the clerk, a pleasant-looking man with glasses and gray hair, not very old, but old enough to understand that there are moments in life that shouldn’t be hurried, and that all customers are valuable, including the youngest ones who have no money. Apparently the little girl had asked a question about how he scanned the groceries, and instead of offering some quick dismissive answer, he invited her to help. Seconds later, after she mastered the fine art of scanning bar codes and began moving cans from the cart to the counter quicker than you could say, “Have a nice day,” he smiled, stepped back and watched. We all watched — the clerk, the child’s mother, those of us in line, even the other clerk who opened a new register to keep things moving. We smiled and nodded, exchanging knowing looks, as if to say, “Oh, would you look at that!” All of us, that is, except for the man directly in line behind me, who kept glancing at his watch. When the second clerk motioned for me to move to her register, I turned to the man. “Would you like to go ahead of me?” I asked. He hesitated, then smiled. “No,” he said. “It’s OK. I can wait.” Meanwhile, child labor was proceeding nicely on aisle seven, until the bananas gave her pause. There’s no bar code on bananas. She wrinkled her nose and looked up at the clerk. He leaned down and quickly demonstrated how to punch in the secret banana code. She thanked him and went back to work, zipping through yogurt, crackers, juice, whatever, item by item, until everything had been scanned, totaled and bagged. And she never had to stop and call for a price check. When my daughter was barely big enough to sit up in a grocery cart, her main ambition in life was to become a checker. For Christmas, when she was 3, we gave her a toy check stand made of cardboard, complete with an assortment of fake groceries, and a real adding machine I bought at a garage sale for a dollar. Lord, how she loved that adding machine. She slept with it under her pillow. Somehow she grew up to be a teacher, not a checker, but she still swears the adding machine was her best present ever. And yet she would have traded it in a heartbeat — and gladly have thrown in both of her brothers — for a chance to scan a few real groceries. I wish it had occurred to me to ask someone to let her try. I don’t know what that little girl at the checkout stand will want to be when she grows up. She’d make a fine checker, but I suspect she’d be good at most anything. Of this much I am certain: She may not long remember how to punch the secret banana code into a scanner. But she won’t soon forget that someone — a stranger, of all things — cared enough to take the time to let her try. We are all in the business of rearing children together, whether they fall asleep every night in our arms or under our bridges. It’s up to them to choose what they will make of their lives. It’s up to us to give them a chance to try. • • • Sharon Randall can be contacted at www.sharonrandall.com.

Wheaties unveils commemorative Earnhardt box
GENERAL MILLS
Friends and family of Dale Earnhardt unveil a Wheaties Box, celebrating the racing legend’s Hall of Fame induction, including Richard Childress, CEO of RCR Racing, daughter, Taylor Earnhardt, and son, Kerry Earnhardt. General Mills driver Clint Bowyer. “It’s great to see Wheaties pay tribute again to Dale Earnhardt by honoring him with a second commemorative box, especially since it takes place at the same time as his induction,“ said Richard Childress, president and CEO of Richard Childress Racing. “Dale was, and always will be, a champions’ champion who represents the best that motorsports offers to its millions of fans worldwide.“ “It’s really an honor for my family and me to see this
Wheaties box,“ said Taylor Earnhardt. “My dad was a true champion and this box helps celebrate his legacy.“ “The Wheaties box will have special meaning to so many of his fans and help carry on his legacy,“ said Kerry Earnhardt. “We’re very excited to see this special Wheaties box on store shelves.“ “Dale would be honored by this announcement today,“ said Teresa Earnhardt. “It’s great to see Wheaties continuing the legend with this special box.“ Earnhardt is joined in the
inaugural class by Bill France Sr., Bill France Jr., Richard Petty and Junior Johnson. Honorees will be inducted in a ceremony happening on Sunday, May 23. Race fans can help celebrate Earnhardt’s legacy next week at the Food Lion Speed Street 600 Race Festival in downtown Charlotte. The original Wheaties car driven by Earnhardt in the 1997 race will be showcased at the Wheaties display. The new commemorative box hits store shelves this summer. Born out of a fortunate mistake in 1924, original Wheaties was created when a health clinician accidentally spilled a wheat bran mixture onto a hot stove. The result was tasty, crispy wheat flakes that became known as Washburn’s Gold Medal Whole Wheat Flakes. A year later, the cumbersome name was shortened to Wheaties. Baseball legend Lou Gehrig was the first athlete featured on a Wheaties Box, when he appeared on the back cover in 1934. In 1958, American champion pole-vaulter Bob Richards was the first person to appear on the front of the package, jumpstarting the phenomenon of “being on the Wheaties box,“ which has since been graced by some of the greatest athletes of all time, including Bruce Jenner, Walter Payton, Mary Lou Retton, and many others.

Wheaties has unveiled a special-edition Dale Earnhardt commemorative box, honoring the legendary career of the Kannapolis driver and celebrating his induction into the NASCAR Hall of Fame. Earnhardt’s record-tying seven championships, 76 victories and fan popularity helped propel him into the “Breakfast of Champions“ honor. Earnhardt becomes the first stock car driver to be featured on the Wheaties box twice. He first appeared on a series of boxes in 1997 when he raced a Wheaties paint scheme in the All-Star event that same year. And, now Wheaties honors his competitive spirit and champion attitude in connection with his induction. “Dale Earnhardt signifies everything that makes a champion,“ said David Clark, vice president for Wheaties. “His record speaks for itself, but it was also his hard work and determination that made him an inspiration to so many. We’re honored to feature him again and to help celebrate his latest acknowledgements.� Among those at the unveiling of the new Wheaties Box on Friday morning at the Charlotte Motor Speedway were Taylor Earnhardt, the driver’s youngest daughter; Kerry Earnhardt, his oldest son; Richard Childress, founder and owner of Richard Childress Racing; Jeff Steiner, executive vice president and general manager of Dale Earnhardt Inc.; and current

RALEIGH (AP) — North Carolina Gov. Beverly Perdue granted a pardon Friday to a man absolved of a murder conviction in the first case of its kind in the country. Perdue pardoned Greg Taylor after learning the results of DNA tests done by Raleigh police on clothes Taylor had worn the night of the 1991 killing of Jacquetta Thomas, for which he spent almost 17 years in prison. “This should put the matter to rest,� Taylor told The Associated Press. “Now I hope the (Raleigh) Police Department puts this matter to rest and starts looking forward as to who actually committed this crime.� Taylor already had plans to celebrate his daughter’s 27th birthday Friday night. He hadn’t been able to celebrate her birthday in freedom since she was 9 years old. Taylor was exonerated of Thomas’ murder in February by three judges who heard the case as a result of the work of the North Carolina Innocence Inquiry Commission, the only panel of its kind in the country. Perdue had delayed issuing an official pardon, saying she wanted to see more evidence. On Friday morning, she learned the results of the DNA tests on Taylor’s clothing. “To make sure there was no doubt cast on her decision, she wanted to wait for the results,� Perdue spokeswoman Chrissy Pearson said. “It was the final piece she was waiting for.� Found innocent of the crime, Taylor is now eligible for $750,000 in compensation payments from the state Industrial Commission thanks to the pardon. Chris Mumma, an attorney for Taylor, said it was a big relief even though Taylor knew the DNA testing would come back with no connection to him. “He’s been having this hanging out there for a while,� Mumma said. “Hopefully this removes any doubt in anybody’s mind.�

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama directed the government Friday to set the first mileage

and greenhouse gas emission standards for commercial trucks and buses. Such vehicles are big polluters and fuel consumers even though they’re far outnumbered by passenger cars. The Union of Concerned Scientists, an environmental advocacy group, said large trucks represent about 4 percent of all vehicles on U.S. highways but devour more than 20 percent of fuel. According to the Environmental Protection Agency, commercial trucks account for 21 percent of greenhouse gas emissions in the transportation sector — compared with 33 percent for passenger cars and 29 percent for SUVs, pickups and minivans.

Obama seeks tougher mileage standards for cars, big trucks
and pollution limits for big trucks and to tighten rules for future cars and SUVs, setting the nation’s sights on vehicles that run on half the fuel they now use and give off half the pollution. “The nation that leads in the clean energy economy will lead the global economy. And I want America to be that nation,” Obama declared at the White House as he signed a presidential memorandum that would reshape the country’s driving habits long after he leaves office. With the catastrophic oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico underscoring the risks of America’s heavy reliance on fossil fuels, Obama gave federal agencies just over a year to come up with fuel efficiency

Japan, China and South Korea. The Chinese have the most leverage over the reclusive regime, and Beijing’s support for any international response to Pyongyang will be critical to its success. But China, North Korea’s main ally and a veto-wielding permanent member of the Security Council, has thus far remained neutral. While it was “premature” to discuss exact options or actions that will be taken, Clinton said it was “important to send a clear message to North Korea that provocative actions have consequences.”

RANITE QUARRY — If Brian Hatley had his way, you wouldn’t be reading this. You’d be reading about Preston Troutman and Will Sapp, the East Rowan table-setters who instead cleared the tables in FriDAVID day night’s SHAW third-round 4-2 win against Mount Pleasant. Or you’d be learning all about the 1-2 pitch Andy Austin drilled for a gametying, RBI double to the right-center gap with two away in the bottom of the fourth inning. But Hatley — the Mustangs’ revered, chessmaster of a pitching coach — can’t stop the news from happening. And he can’t stop you from reading about East’s lights-out bullpen and the hermetically sealed relief it has provided throughout this magical mystery tour of a season. But here you are. And here he is. “Right now the less people know about our pitching staff, the better,” he quipped with a sideways glance, suggesting just the two of you are in on the secret. “But it’s probably too late. I think quite a few people have heard about us by now.” • And rightly so. With a 26-2 record and 1.72 team ERA, it’s difficult to go undetected — particularly as

GRANITE QUARRY — Staton Field E. Rowan 4 was packed M. Pleasant 2 wall-to-wall and groundto-roof, and no one left early. East Rowan outlasted Mount Pleasant 4-2 in the third round of the 3A playoffs by doing something it rarely does — hitting it over the fence. East mashed 25 homers in 2008 when it reached the 3A championship series. It had just nine this season before it went deep twice on Friday. Back-to-back jacks by leadoff man Preston Troutman and Will Sapp in the sixth finally rescued East (26-2), but the Mustangs’ season hung by a slender thread for most of the damp evening. “That was a state-championship game,” said drained MP coach Bryan Tyson. “We went at it toe-to-toe with ’em.” Mount’s Grayson Atwood, a hard-throwing righty who fired the game of his life, was a hero for five innings. “Grayson has not pitched that much — he’s kind of a project — but he wanted that ball tonight and he showed he can be special if he’ll stay with it,” Tyson said. East won’t argue. “His fastball was good,” East first baseman Andy Austin said. “And his curveball had a great break on it.” East didn’t have a baserunner until the third and didn’t get a base hit until the fourth, but the Mustangs executed coach Brian Hightower’s grind-it-out gameplan. Everyone battled Atwood. Outs piled up, but few were easy. “We were patient at the JON C. LAKEY/SALISBURY POST

East softball rips Vikings BY JORDAN HONEYCUTT sports@salisburypost.com
GRANITE QUARRY —The East Rowan softball team E. Rowan 10 capitalized early and C. Cabarrus 3 often with key hits and patience against erratic Central Cabarrus pitcher Mellena Helms to earn a 10-3 victory Friday in the second round of the 3A playoffs. Chelsea White was strong yet again for East, holding the Vikings scoreless until the fourth inning and striking out eight batters. She allowed just four walks.
The bats of the Mustangs were sizzling early, giving White an early cushion after two innings. In the first, East’s first three batters were walked by Helms, then catcher Kayla Potts drove home two with a clutch, two-out single up the middle. Helms’ wildness was demonstrated again in the second as she hit Megan Klutz and walked Steffi Sides. Shortstop Ericka Nesbitt then sent a screamer into left field which went through the legs of Central left-fielder Ali Hartsell, allowing Nesbitt to motor all the way home to score and give East an early 5-0 lead.
“We really were able to capitalize on their control problems and we came up with big hits early,” said Mustang coach Mike Waddell. East kept the pressure on in the third by loading the bases with walks to Klutz and Nesbitt, along with a Sides single. Pinch-hitter Bobbi Thomas delivered with a rocket to center that scored two more East Rowan runs. The Vikings finally got to White in the fourth inning when Tori Cragan led off with a double, Helms singled, Lindsey
Busch on pole BY MIKE CRANSTON Associated Press
CONCORD — Denny Hamlin came to Charlotte Motor Speedway on Friday as one of NASCAR’s hottest drivers and guaranteed the first pit stall for the All-Star race. Then a blown engine and a band of showers changed the dynamics for the non-points event that pays $1 million to the winner. A few hours after a cloud of smoke trailed Hamlin’s car early in practice on Friday, the unique three-lap qualifying format with a mandatory four-tire pit stop
was rained out, giving Kurt Busch the pole for Saturday’s race simply because he was first in the qualifying draw. “It feels great. It puts us that much closer to a million dollars,” Busch said. “Sometimes it’s better to be lucky than good, and my boat put the best lap down today.” Joey Logano will start on the outside of the front row for the four-segment, 100-lap race. Brad Keselowski will start third, followed by Jamie McMurray, Kyle Busch and David Reutimann.

Magic won’t be intimidated BY JIMMY GOLEN Associated Press

Kyle Busch holds up his See RACE, 7B trophy after taking the pole.
WALTHAM, Mass. — The original Boston Garden is long gone, and so is the fear in opponents’ eyes when they play the Celtics on their home floor. So don’t expect the Orlando Magic to be too intimidated when they arrive for Games 3 and 4 of the best-of-seven Eastern Conference finals. “We’ve won there before, and there’s no reason we can’t do it again,” forward Rashard Lewis said Friday as the Magic prepared for Game 3. “Boston came to us and beat us twice on our home court, so it’s happened before. Why can’t we do it? Why can’t it happen again?” The Celtics took the first two games in Orlando, stealing the home-court advantage and earning a chance to advance with-
out having to leave town again. A victory at the new Boston Garden tonight would give them a chance to complete the sweep on Monday. But home-court advantage doesn’t mean what it used to for Boston. The Celtics were 24-17 at home this year — tied for the worst of all the playoff teams. It’s the first time the Celtics have had a better record on the road (26-15) than at home since 1974, and just the second time since 1955. Boston was one of just two NBA teams this season that was better on the road than at home. For coach Doc Rivers, it’s more reason to forget about a regular season in which, after beating Orlando on Christmas Day to improve to 23-5, the Celtics spent the next four months as a .500 team.

Bryan will play in State Games From staff reports
Salisbury’s Jenna Bryan, a Hornet soccer player, has been selected to play in the North Carolina State Games for the South squad. She is the first player from Salisbury to ever make the roster for these games. The games will be on June 26-27 at Queens College in Charlotte.
! Trojan baseball keeps rolling Once a struggling .500 team, Northwest Cabarrus continued its late surge with a dramatic 5-4 win against Charlotte Catholic in the third round of the 3A playoffs on Friday. Sophomore Corey Seager pounded a tworun homer in the first inning and blasted a walkoff double to right-center in the seventh. Lefty Rob Bain was the winning pitcher. “Catholic is really athletic and ran down three balls in the outfield that will usually fall,” Northwest coach Joe Hubbard said. “But we played a great game and were able to manufacture some runs when we had chances.” Northwest (21-9) will play East Rowan (262) at Staton Field in the fourth round — a state quarterfinal — in a battle of No. 1 seeds. The teams have already met twice. Northwest won 11-7 over East in an Easter tournament at Fieldcrest Cannon Stadium. East won the rematch 6-2 at Staton Field.
! South Legion postponed Friday night’s American Legion game between South Rowan and Kannapolis at Fieldcrest Cannon Stadium was postponed due to rain. The game was rescheduled for Tuesday, June 8 and will still be played at FCS. Tickets purchased Friday will be honored on June 8. South Rowan will try to open its season at High Point’s Finch Field today at 2 p.m. • The Rowan Legion (0-1) will open its home season tonight when it takes on Stanly County at 7 p.m. at Newman Park. • Mooresville defeated Statesville 11-4 in its season opener on Friday night. Lefty Scottie Williams got the win, working six innings. He gave up two runs on four hits and struck out nine. Catawba signee Chris Dula paced Mooresville’s offense, going 3-for-4 with three runs scored. He had a solo homer and three RBIs. Jake Beaver went 2-for-4 with three RBIs. Billy Nantz was 3-for-4 with two RBIs. Mooresville plays host to Kernersville on Sunday.
! Intimidators lose Despite a 4-0 lead in the fourth inning, the Kannapolis Intimidators allowed the Asheville Tourists to take a comeback 7-6 victory on Friday night. The Intimidators (22-20) jumped out to a 1-0 lead in the third inning as Kevin Dubler reached on an error and scored on a basesloaded hit by Kyle Colligan. But Ian Gac grounded into a double play to end the inning. In the fourth, Nick Ciolli reached on a bunt single and stole second before Jose Vargas hit an RBI-double. He scored on a single by Jesus Villegas, who scored on a double by Rafael Vera. The Intimidators were up 4-0 lead and Justin Collop had been working well, so things looked good for Kannapolis. However, in the bottom of the fourth, the Tourists (15-25) put up two runs on three hits off Collop (2-4) and they added five runs in the fifth for a 7-4 lead. The Intimidators came back with two twoout runs in the eighth, but went down quietly as Sheng-an Kuo worked his second save of the year. Chad Rose (2-2) pitched three scoreless to pick up the win. The Intimidators put up 10 hits for the second straight time, but failed to win for the third time in an attempt to go to four games above .500. They now trail the first-place Hickory Crawdads by four games.

Stoudemire shrugs off the blame
The NBA notebook ... CHICAGO — John Wall believes John Calipari will stay at Kentucky, even if he has a chance to coach LeBron James. At the NBA combine in Chicago, Wall said Friday that it was Calipari’s “dream” to coach Kentucky and “I feel strongly he’s going to stay.” Even if Calipari could coach King James? Wall says Calipari “would like to have another chance in the NBA,” just not this soon. Calipari went 72-112 in two-plus seasons with the New Jersey Nets in the late 1990s and has said he is staying at Kentucky. NBA COMBINE CHICAGO — DeMarcus Cousins understands there are questions about his maturity, his focus and whether he’s even a good teammate. The way he sees it, that’s “ridiculous.” The big center from Kentucky had something to prove at this week’s NBA combine in Chicago. While fellow Wildcat John Wall and Ohio State’s Evan Turner figure to go to Washington and Philadelphia with the top two picks on June 24, the next few spots appear to be up for grabs. The New Jersey Nets select third, and Cousins could be a candidate along with two forwards — Derrick Favors of Georgia Tech and Wesley Johnson from Syracuse. OOPS WASHINGTON — There it was on Facebook for all to see: the Washington Wizards telling the world they will draft John Wall with the No. 1 pick. Oops.

Phoenix. He can opt out of the final year of his contract with the Suns after this season and would like a maximum deal. He was one of the most dominant players in the NBA since the All-Star break, but two games against the Lakers have rekindled debate as to whether he is worth that much money. “I understand. That’s fine, that’s fine,” Stoudemire said. “Last year, this same team with Shaq, we didn’t make the playoffs. You get rid of Shaq and add me and we’re in the Western Conference finals. That alone should tell you what I bring to the team.” Phoenix coach Alvin Gentry said critics should lay off his All-Star forward. “I think you guys are making way, way too much of that,” Gentry said. “We had a lot of guys out of position on certain plays. If you’re telling me because of the statement he made everybody is looking at him more closely then OK, fine. But to say that he’s the guy that’s out of position is not an accurate statement. That’s not true at all.” Gentry was referring to Stoudemire’s statement that Lamar Odom had “a lucky game” with 19 points and 19 rebounds in the series opener. Odom, who had 17 points and 11 boards in Game 2, has caused matchup problems for the Suns.

PHOENIX — Amare Stoudemire is taking a lot of heat for his defense, or lack of it, thus far in the Western Conference finals. Then again, nobody ever confused him with Kevin Garnett as an NBA stopper — and he is playing against the Los Angeles Lakers. The teams returned to practice on Friday after a day off, with the Lakers up 2-0 as the series shifts to Phoenix for Game 3 on Sunday night. Stoudemire indicated defensive strategy, not his individual failings, were to blame for Phoenix’s interior defensive woes. “I’m doing everything the coaching staff is asking me to do, every single thing,” he said after the Suns’ workout, “from fronting the post, to doubling Kobe, to helping out. Those guys are big down there.” Phoenix is trying to become the first team in 47 tries to come back from an 0-2 deficit to win a sevengame series against a Phil Jackson-coached team. Those teams, of course, have been laden with talent, and these Lakers are no exceptions. Steve Nash said the only way for Phoenix to beat the defending NBA champions is with the effort and chemistry that made the Suns such a surprising success this season. “They’re a more talented team than we are,” Nash said. “They’re a more balanced team. It’s probably not a stretch in most people’s minds just to say they’re a better team than we are. So how do we overcome that? That’s just all spirit, fight and belief. We’ve got to rely heavily on those characteristics with this group.” Stoudemire might be playing his final games for

If you want a great deal on tickets ... email me.” The posting was soon taken down. Wizards spokesman Scott Hall says it was “simply the case of an overzealous member of our sales staff acting on his own.” YAO’S BABY HOUSTON — Houston Rockets star Yao Ming is now a father. The 7-foot-6 Yao and his wife, Ye Li, had a baby girl on Friday at a Houston hospital, team spokesman Nelson Luis said. The couple, who married in August 2007, did not announce the baby’s name. She weighed 7 pounds, 6 ounces. “I am very excited about the arrival of our daughter,” Yao said in a statement. “This is a very special moment in our lives and we thank everyone for their kindness and support.” PITTMAN AUSTIN, Texas — Former Texas center Dexter Pittman left the NBA draft combine Friday to be with his family a day after his half-brother was shot and killed in a Houston suburb.

“During the season,” he said before interrupting himself. “I don’t want to go back to that. I will go back to pre-Christmas.” Forward Paul Pierce would also like to forget the regular season, and the Celtics’ playoff run is making that easier. After earning the No. 4 seed in the East and quickly dispatching the Miami Heat in the first round, Boston eliminated LeBron James and the top-seeded Cleveland Cavaliers in the conference semis. Against secondseeded Orlando, the Celtics have twice opened big leads and held on to take a 2-0 advantage. Now they’re back home, where the Celtics are 5-1 so far in the playoffs. “I think our guys are getting comfortable playing at home again,” Rivers said. It doesn’t hurt that they’re playing better defense than they did during the long regular season, when the 2008 champions seemed uninterested. Veteran Rasheed Wallace has become a contributor off the bench. Point guard Rajon Rondo is blossoming into a star at both ends. And Kevin Garnett, who missed last year’s playoffs because of a knee injury, seems to be responding to his restful regular season with the strong play that was a key to the team’s 17th NBA title. To Pierce, that’s a sign that the regular-season struggles at home don’t mean much any more. “Yesterday already happened and tomorrow’s going to come,” he said. “We’ve turned a lot of things around, so hopefully it can continue in the playoffs.” Orlando was one of two teams — Atlanta was the other — to win twice in Boston this year. The Magic also remember coming to town in last year’s playoffs, when they beat Boston twice — including the Celtics’ first-ever loss at home in a seventh game — to advance to the conference finals.

Magic forward Rashard Lewis, left, goes up in front of Boston forward Rasheed Wallace. “Last year, Boston never lost a Game 7 on their home floor. We went in and beat them,” Lewis said. “It can happen.” This year’s problem: The Celtics have never blown a 2-0 lead in a best-of-seven series, and the Magic have never come back after losing the first two games. “Those are daunting numbers, and I think those numbers are maybe good for gamblers and oddsmakers,” Orlando coach Stan Van Gundy said. “But they don’t really mean anything to you. Unless it affects your game plan and how you’re going to play, what do you do with that? What is the implication in terms of how we would play? The answer is: nothing.” And it’s not like there haven’t been bigger comebacks. In the very same building. Just last week. The NHL’s Boston Bruins led Philadelphia 3-0 in their best-of-seven series before the Flyers came back to force a seventh game. Once there, they overcame a three-goal deficit to win 4-3 and advance to the Stanley Cup semifinals. “Those guys on the Flyers were counted out and look what they did,” said Magic guard Jameer Nelson, who’s from the Philadelphia suburbs and went to Saint Joseph’s. “The Flyers believed in themselves and we believe, too. You’ve got to believe.”

East Rowan coach Brian Hightower, right, gets excited as he sends Preston Troutman home after the Mustang senior belted a homer against Mount Pleasant.

the biggest at-bats of my life.” East was in hot water again when Mount put runners at second and third with one out in the sixth against Johnson. Hightower turned to his flamethrower — Bradley Robbins. He got East out of that jam. He got a strikeout. Then he gloved a hot shot to the box by Brandon Burris.
“Burris’ ball was really hit,” Hightower said. “Fortunately, Robbins is an athlete.” Then East’s lineup came around for the third time, and Troutman, a lefty hitter headed to Appalachian State, was ready to do some damage. Troutman’s natural stroke is to left-center. The book on him is to bust him inside.
As the Appalachian Statebound fireball walked to the plate to start the bottom of the sixth, Hightower reminded him Atwood would try to come inside under his hands. Atwood’s 1-2 pitch was a fastball inside, and Troutman launched it toward the distant scoreboard in right field. Troutman doesn’t hit homers, but this was a nodoubter. “Hey, all I’m trying to do is get on base,” Troutman said after his first blast of the season. “I did put a good swing on it, but if I hit one out, the pitcher’s providing the power.” Tyson said that’s exactly what happened. “Atwood’s got some real pop and was thumping it up there pretty quick,” he said. “Troutman just dropped the bat head on it, and it traveled.” Sapp was next. And as stunned as the young center fielder was by Troutman’s electrifying clout that whipped the old ballpark into a frenzy, he was even more shocked when he nailed a homer of his own. “Preston hit his homer and it’s going pretty crazy, so I’m just trying to calm down and get a base hit,” Sapp said. “But it went to 3-2, and then he left me a fastball up in the zone.” As the ball rocketed toward the trees and Sapp circled the bases, Hightower set a high-

Four East hurlers ered two innings of scoreless relief. It wasn’t without drama. He worked out of a second-inning jam, retired the side in order in the third and set down Mount Pleasant’s first two batters in the fourth. But after yielding a bloop single and a walk, his night was over. “I had to stay focused and trust my catcher,” said Bost, who also credited Troutman. “And the shortstop comes over a lot to calm me down. He makes frequent trips to the mound.” Next up on East’s dance card was lefty Will Johnson, who induced an inning-endJON C.

issued a rare base on balls, a bunt single and a sacrifice in the sixth. There were two runners in scoring position when Bradley Robbins took the wheel and brought the evening in for a safe landing, showing No. 9 hitter Chett Currie a called third strike and snaring Brandon Burris’ blistering grounder. “I came in and was ready to finish it off,” Robbins said. “Nothing that happens changes my mindset.” • It also lit the fuse for East’s sixth-inning heroics, when Troutman and Sapp did their yard work and Nathan Fulbright delivered a run-scoring double. “Everyone’s important,” Hatley said. “We can’t have just pitching or just defense or just timely hitting. Everyone has to do their part.” Including the pitching coach. “Hey,” said East coach Brian Hightower. “If you’re gonna coach a team, you need a guy like Hatley. He was the first one I called when I got the job. Every (pitching) decision we make, he’s my right-hand man. Plus, I don’t have many friends and he seems to like working with me.” At least that’s no secret.

plate, made Atwood work, made him throw a lot of pitches,” Hightower explained. “And our guys will make adjustments. By the third time through, we’ll usually be hitting some balls hard.” Mount Pleasant (17-11) struck first. East starter Thomas Allen has been out with a forearm strain and wasn’t sharp. The Tigers scored in the first on an RBI double by Anthony Allende. East was lucky it didn’t get buried. Allen got a big strikeout to strand runners at second and third in the first inning. Alex Bost relieved Allen in the second and escaped a first-and-third jam. “We were hoping the adrenaline would kick in and Allen would find it, but it just wasn’t there,” Hightower said. “If I had to put a percentage on him, he’s 75 or 80, but not anywhere close to 100.” No one questions the brilliance of East’s bullpen. Bost did his job and passed the baton to lefty Will Johnson, and East somehow survived long enough to get its bats going. Atwood’s no-hitter disappeared on a sizzling double to left-center by Noah Holmes with one out in the fourth.

Will Sapp pumps his fist after he hit the first homer of his season in the sixth inning. With Atwood one strike from getting out of the fourth, Austin delivered a huge hit. He got East even at 1-1 by driving a fastball to the fence in right-center. Pinch-runner Jamey Blalock scored. “He got two strikes on me quick, but then I had a pretty good swing at a fastball,” Austin said. “That was one of

They were fancy without being schmancy, more a group of laborers than craftsmen. “All I know,” said catcher Luke Thomas, “is they’re all phenomenal. “We’ve got so many options and we know we can depend on any of them in any situation.” • Allen lasted only into the second inning, partly be-
jump record, and the bleachers went crazy all over again. Sapp’s shot ended a heroic effort by Atwood, and Tyson turned to his bullpen. A single by Luke Thomas and a double by Nathan Fulbright tacked on an insurance run. The Tigers got one against Robbins in the seventh, but he ended it with three straight groundballs. Second baseman Justin Morris gobbled up the last one, and the Mustangs started thinking about Northwest Cabarrus. The Trojans will be at Staton on Tuesday.

Ericka Nesbitt (8) helped the Mustangs grab a 5-0 lead after two innings.
Mullis walked and Brittany Eudy drove a two run double to left-center. The final three innings turned into a pitcher’s duel as White reverted to her normal form, shutting down the Vikings. Central relief pitcher Chelsea Hartsell stymied East down the stretch, but the Mustangs’ lead was too much to overcome. A scene of jubilation was evident in the home dugout afterward while some tears flowed from the eyes of the visitors, realizing many of the Vikings had played the last softball game of their career. Central Cabarrus coach Doug Buckwell, obviously dejected after the game, said, “I really hate it and I’m sad for our seniors. The bright spot,

on a foul ball reminiscent of something often seen on SportsCenter’s Top 10 plays. She did a full layout and snagged a ball fouled off by Central first basemen Tori Cragan. “Their shortstop really stood out to me,” said Buckwell. “She is a terrific player and made a great play on that ball.” The Mustangs will play host to Marvin Ridge on Tuesday in the third round of the 3A state playoffs. With a few days off to focus on the Mavericks, and time for White to rest her arm, East looks poised to try and ride the winning momentum deeper into the playoffs. Marvin Ridge was victorious over Mount Pleasant on Thursday to earn the next shot at East. “All I know about them is that they will be the best team that we play that day,” said Waddell.

Bailey, Brown finish in fourth BY BRET STRELOW
bstrelow@salisburypost.com
Bailey finished 14th in the discus as a sophomore and second last year as a junior. “The last week of practice, I made a couple changes,” said Bailey, who emphasized using his legs more. “Then the adrenaline rush and the monkey on my back from coming here for the third time and never getting it. A lot of things piled on together.” Bailey’s best career throw before Friday was 177-9 in a regular-season meet at Mount Pleasant. He came up short of 170 feet at the regional but surpassed 175 on his first attempt at North Carolina A&T. His second throw went 1802, and he topped that on his next try. “As a thrower that’s what you want to do, but it usually doesn’t happen that way because I’ll scratch a lot,” Bailey said. “We had this massive gap between finals and preliminaries. I was peaking at the end of preliminaries, and that gap kind of threw me off.” Bailey’s best throw ranks 29th in the nation this year. The old state-meet record, regardless of classification, was 182-0 from Providence’s Ben Huff in 1993. The Wonders added 19 more points in events involving Lipscomb, who was part of a fourth-place 4x200 team with Damien Washington, Dillon Robinson and Teven Jones. Lipscomb finished third in the 110-meter hurdles (15.21 seconds) and second in the 300 hurdles (39.43). Forestview’s D. Breedlove (39.39) edged him at the line in that event.
GREENSBORO — Angelia Adams, A.L. Brown discus star Tavis Bailey’s young cousin, wandered away from her seat and ducked under a barricade while attempting to deliver a bucket hat to Bailey. A member of East Rowan thrower Nathan Robbins’ family corralled the enthusiastic child, and B a i l e y laughed when ROBBINS R o b b i n s handed him the hat. Bailey’s competition found it equally difficult to give chase Friday. Bailey set an all-classification, state-meet record by throwing the discus 185 feet, 1 inch at the 3A championships. That distance, which is tied for fifth in North Carolina history, edged the school-record effort of 183-9 established by DeMarcus Carter in 1991. “When the disc gets really heavy as you’re throwing it and it pulls you coming out, that’s when you know it’s a good one,” Bailey said. Bailey, who also claimed second in the shot put, joined Jerrod Lipscomb in leading A.L. Brown’s boys to a fourthplace finish with 40 points. Asheville won with 90, and Crest was the runner-up with 63. Bailey won the discus by more than 20 feet over South Brunswick’s Ryan Minor, who Rowan County’s state threw the shot 58-101⁄2 to beat Bailey by more than 6 feet. champions were East’s Evan

Mathews
needed three attempts to clear 6-4. Grant’s body went over cleanly on his last attempt at 6-8, but his foot grazed the bar and knocked it over as he landed. “I guess the tip of my foot tipped it on the way down,” said Grant, a senior who placed third last year. “I thought I was over until I looked back and saw it fall. “I was hoping I’d get 6-10 or 7 feet my last time jumping. I guess that’s just how it is.” West’s boys finished eighth overall, with Quinton Phifer (eighth, high jump) joining Barger as an individual scorer. East’s boys were 11th in the team race. Robbins placed fifth in the shot put and seventh in the discus. Andrew May came in 7th in the 300 hurdles.

Braves pitcher Tim Hudson throws in the seventh inning.
Braves win PITTSBURGH — No need to Braves 7 wait for Pirates 0 the ninth inning to win this one. With Tim Hudson giving up only three singles and Jason Heyward rattling PNC Park with line drives, the Atlanta Braves put the Pirates away early and easily. Heyward homered and drove in three runs to support Hudson’s eight dominant innings and the Braves coasted for a change, beating the Pirates 7-0 on Friday night for their fourth consecutive victory. The Braves had won three consecutive games in their final at-bat, including a 10-9 win over Cincinnati on Thursday in which they scored seven runs during the best ninth-inning comeback in franchise history. They have won nine of 11 overall. “There’s nothing better than winning like we did yesterday (Thursday), then winning again,” said manager Bobby Cox, who celebrated his 69th birthday. “It’s kind
of inspiring to win a game like we did (against Cincinnati). It gets you on rolls.” Hudson (5-1) was already on one as he won his fourth in a row this month, allowing a pair of singles by Bobby Crosby and another by Garrett Jones. Hudson hasn’t permitted more than one run in any victory during the streak. The right-hander also hasn’t surrendered an earned run in his last 22 innings in Pittsburgh. “My sinker feels really good, and for me that’s the key,” Hudson said. “Stay down in the zone with it, (get) good action, stay on top of it, (with) good downward tilt. It’s a fun day when I’m able to go out and do that.” Hudson was trying for his 12th career shutout and his first since May 2, 2008, against Cincinnati, or about four months before he had Tommy John elbow reconstructive surgery. Cox pulled him after he threw 109 pitches. “I didn’t think there was any reason to keep him going with that kind of lead,” Cox said. “If he’d had to, he could have gone another.”

Wittels tied Wichita State’s Phil Stephenson, who hit in 47 straight games in 1981. Oklahoma State’s Robin Ventura holds the NCAA record with a

He had lost 11 straight decisions since beating Oakland on Aug. 11, 2009, the second-longest dry spell in Orioles history behind Mike Boddicker’s 13-game skid (1987-88). Reds 7, Indians 4 CLEVELAND — Laynce Nix had three hits, including a tiebreaking double in the sixth inning, to lead Cincinnati. Jonny Gomes and Brandon Phillips also homered for the Reds. Bronson Arroyo (4-2) allowed four runs in 62⁄3 innings and won his third straight start. Rangers 2, Cubs 1 ARLINGTON, Texas — Colby Lewis labored through six innings for his first victory in five starts and Nelson Cruz drove in the tiebreaking run for Texas. The AL West-leading Rangers have a five-game winning streak, their longest of the season. Astros 2, Rays 1 HOUSTON — Brett Myers didn’t allow an earned run in seven innings and Houston snapped Tampa Bay’s six-game winning streak. The worst team in the National League beat the best in baseball, handing the Rays just their 12th loss in 42 games. Royals 9, Rockies 2 KANSAS CITY, Mo, — Jose Guillen hit two home runs and drove in three runs for Kansas City. Twins 15, Brewers 3 MINNEAPOLIS — Jason Kubel and Minnesota battered a frustrated Dave Bush for seven first-inning runs.
HOUSTON — Astros ace Roy Oswalt wants out of Houston. General manager Ed Wade said Oswalt’s agent, Bob Garber, contacted owner Drayton McLane earlier this week to make the request. When asked if it was a request or a demand, Wade said that distinction didn’t matter. “Roy’s contract has a notrade clause, not a trade-me clause,” Wade said. “There is no rule that allows a player in his contract status to demand a trade. So demand, request, hold your breath until you turn blue, it’s all the same. It’s acknowledged and noted.” The 32-year-old Oswalt recently said he would be willing to waive his no-trade clause. Wade said he wants to win with Oswalt on the Astros. Houston went into Friday night’s game against Tampa Bay with the worst record in the National League at 14-27. Oswalt has made nine straight quality starts to open the season but is 2-6 with a 2.66 ERA. He has gotten the lowest run support in the league.
INDIANAPOLIS — BCS executive director Bill Hancock wants higher education officials to make the decisions about college football without interference from the U.S. government. Hancock responded to questions posed by Sen. Max Baucus (D-Mont.) and Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) in March. They were seeking information about the BCS, its structure and governance and how television revenue is distributed among schools — particularly those schools not playing in BCS conferences. In a five-page letter and six pages of attachments, Hancock noted that BCS participation is voluntary — apparently in response to the senators’ statement that the BCS “apparently considers itself an ’arrangement”’ in which there is a “lack of transparency.” “While I appreciate your interest, I believe that decisions about college football should be made by university presidents, athletics directors, coaches and conference commissioners rather than by members of Congress,” Hancock wrote. He cited the example of Utah, a Mountain West school that played in the Sugar Bowl following the 2008 season. Without the BCS, Hancock wrote, the Utes likely would have been sent to the less glamorous — and lucrative — Las Vegas Bowl. He said the Las Vegas Bowl payout was $900,000 while the conference got $9 million for participating in the Sugar Bowl.

Lance Armstrong is lashing out at former teammate Floyd Landis for a second day. He calls the disgraced cyclist a liar and dismisses his allegations that the seven-time Tour de France champion is a drug cheat. Armstrong fired back Friday by posting detailed e-mails on his website from, among others, Landis and Tour of California officials. He accused Armstrong of doping, teaching other riders to cheat and paying off a top cycling official after allegedly testing positive in 2002.

PHILADELPHIA — Cole Hamels pitched seven innings, Ryan Howard and Jayson Werth homered, and Philadelphia beat Boston 5-1 on Friday night. The NL East-leading Phillies (26-15) are back to a season-high 11 games over .500. Hamels (5-2) outdueled John Lackey (4-3). Hamels allowed one run and three hits, striking out eight. J.C. Romero got the last two outs to earn his second save in three tries. Yankees 2, Mets 1 NEW YORK — Javier Vazquez pitched one-hit ball for six innings as the Yankees snapped a threegame losing streak.

GULF BREEZE, Fla. — Brett Favre posted a short statement on his website on Friday night confirming he had arthroscopic ankle surgery, possibly clearing the way for the quarterback to return to the Minnesota Vikings next season. Favre’s future has been up in the air since the Vikings lost to New Orleans in the NFC championship game. He had said he would need ankle surgery if he wanted to play in 2010, but there was no word Friday about his playing career. “This is to confirm that I did have a procedure to remove some scar tissue and bone spurs from my ankle which had been bothering me for a period of time,” Favre said on his website. “I appreciate your concerns.” ESPN.com reported Dr. James Andrews operated on Favre’s left ankle at the Andrews Institute in Gulf Breeze, Fla., on Friday morning. • ATLANTA — Atlanta Falcons president Rich McKay says the team wants a new stadium.

Vickers out for season Associated Press
ASSOCIATED PRESS
A crew member pushes tires through the rain in the garage area on Friday.
RACE FROM 1B
Hamlin has won three of the last seven Sprint Cup races and his team finished first in Wednesday’s Pit Crew Challenge to earn the choice of pit stalls. He will start 12th but will be required to go to the back of the field when the race starts because he has to change engines. At least he still gets the coveted first pit box. “This is probably one of the worst situations you could probably have,” Hamlin said. “We didn’t get to practice anything. We don’t have scuffed tires. A lot of guys will probably race scuffed tires because they’re a little bit faster. And we got to start in the back, so it’s like a double, triple, quadruple whammy of blowing the motor this early.” The rain hurt other drivers when qualifying was called. Since it features a smaller field, the starting order was based on the qualifying draw and not the points standings. Instead of starting first, points leader Kevin Harvick will start 13th. He’ll have to make up ground before the final segment, a 10-lap shootout. “The biggest thing is you want to try and be out front once everybody gets single file as soon as you can to try and take advantage of the aero side of it,” said Harvick, who captured this race in 2007. “The year we won, we won from fourth on the restart and passed everybody going through the middle of one and
two on the restart. “I think with 10 laps with as fast as everybody’s cars are going to be and as much grip as you are going to have, I think you are going to want to be leading.” Four-time defending points champion Jimmie Johnson will start seventh and Jeff Gordon eighth. Casey Mears will start ninth in his second straight race in the No. 83 Toyota with Brian Vickers sidelined for the rest of the season with blood clots. Defending champion Tony Stewart, who won last year after starting 15th, will begin from the 11th spot. Dale Earnhardt Jr., who was scheduled to qualify last, will start 18th. Qualifying was to include the 18 drivers who had already secured spots in the field by winning a race in the past year, or by being a past All-Star race winner (Earnhardt) or Cup champion (Bobby Labonte). The other 29 drivers, including Jeff Burton, Carl Edwards, Greg Biffle and Juan Pablo Montoya, will race in Saturday’s preliminary Sprint Showdown. The top two finishers in that 40-lap race get a spot in the All-Star race, and another slot will be determined through a fan vote. NASCAR officials Friday night were still hoping to complete qualifying for the Sprint Showdown. Montoya (188.055 mph) was the fastest and Burton was second after 25 of 29 drivers had completed their laps before the rain began. If they couldn’t finish qualifying, the starting order would

revert to the qualifying draw, giving David Ragan the pole. Ten years after Dale Earnhardt’s victory in the All-Star race and a day before he’s inducted in the first NASCAR Hall of Fame class, many of the drivers will mimic his aggressive style. With no points on the line and a big payday for the winner, drivers are willing to risk a wreck for a victory. There’s an added twist with a mandatory pit stop during the final 10 laps. “I don’t think it will change it that much,” Hamlin said. “I think you’ll basically see the same crazy race you usually come to see.”

who is vocal when he’s unhappy with the team’s performance, was trying to leave the team a year before his contract expired. TONY WILL BE THERE CONCORD— Two-time NASCAR champion Tony Stewart will attend the inaugural Hall of Fame induction ceremony on Sunday. Stewart was one of several active champions under fire for not planning to attend any of the Hall of Fame events. He was testing during the May 11 grand opening, and missed Thursday night’s gala because it was his birthday. Stewart traditionally spends Sunday at the Indianapolis 500 for “bump day. He has changed those plans, and will walk the red carpet before Sunday’s induction ceremony begins. “I’ll be there,” the Indiana native said Friday. “I’m excited about it from the standpoint that I didn’t grow up in the South. I didn’t grow up around NASCAR racing, originally. It’s important for me to be able to go there and learn about the history of our sport.”
CONCORD — It didn’t take Kyle Busch long to become an elite NASCAR driver. That success hasn’t carried over to life as a team owner. Busch’s first year owning two trucks in NASCAR’s third-tier series has included a lost primary sponsorship, a driver leaving for a better job, a growing list of unpaid creditors and a rapid amount of money disappearing from his wallet. “It’s a tough business to be involved with, and unfortunately I picked the perfect get-wrong time to do it,” Busch said Friday. The No. 18 truck Busch sometimes drives himself is without a primary sponsor, and the No. 56 Toyota driven by Tayler Malsam also is scrambling for money. With the costs for running in the Truck Series estimated at several million dollars apiece, much of the funding is coming from Busch himself. “I would say that majority is a fair word. I would say it’s far above majority. It’s pretty much everything,” Busch said. The 25-year-old Busch has already won 18 times in the Sprint Cup, 34 Nationwide races and 17 more in the Truck Series. Armed with money from his career winnings and just before he signed a new deal with Joe Gibbs Racing, Busch announced in December he was becoming an owner. He hoped to field three truck teams, but sponsorship

Brian Vickers talks to the media. may never know. “Sometimes the absence of data is the conclusion,” Limentani said. Limentani also shrugged off an Australian study that suggested drinking the energy drink Red Bull — the company both owns and sponsors Vickers’ team — could contribute to blood clots. Limentani said the report was not conclusive and did not pertain to Vickers’ situation. Vickers bristled at the suggestion that drinking Red Bull might have caused it. “I drink water, too, so if we’re going to speculate, that could be it, too,” Vickers said. Vickers is in his seventh full season in the Sprint Cup Series and coming off his first appearance in the Chase for the championship. He was replaced in the No. 83 Toyota last weekend by Casey Mears, who will also drive the car in Saturday night’s All-Star Race. Frye said the team was still deciding how it will proceed the rest of the season, but indicated Mears could stay in the seat with possible consideration to using a road course specialist at those two races. Vickers vowed to return in 2011. “I do expect to be back in the car next season, and to win the Daytona 500,” he said. “I’m dealing with two emotions: I want nothing more than to be back in the race car. At the same time, it’s not my personality to focus on the negative. It’s not who I am. It’s not who I’ve always been. I’m going to make the most out of this. “This is the cards I’ve been dealt and I can’t change that right now. I’m going to do everything I can to be positive through this.”
Former track owners drop lawsuit Associated Press
LOUISVILLE, Ky. — The former owners of Kentucky Speedway have dropped their antitrust lawsuit against NASCAR. Attorneys for the former ownership group decided not to appeal their case to the U.S. Supreme Court. Wednesday was the deadline to mail an appeal request to the court. Both the U.S. District Court and the U.S. Court of Appeals rejected claims by the former owners that NASCAR and International Speedway Corporation violated federal antitrust laws by working with other tracks to keep the 1.5-mile tri-oval in northern Kentucky from getting a coveted Sprint Cup race.

Harvick close to RCR deal The NASCAR notebook ... CHARLOTTE — Richard Childress Racing has scheduled a Saturday news conference amid reports Kevin Harvick has signed a contract extension to stay with the team. Harvick declined Friday to address a report in The Charlotte Observer, which citing sources, said Harvick has agreed to an extension. “I don’t have anything new to report today,” Harvick said. “As soon as we get something to report, we’ll go ahead and do that.” A team spokesman confirmed that RCR has blocked time Saturday at Charlotte Motor Speedway for a news conference. Harvick scolded the media last month for reporting on his contract situation with the aid of anonymous sources. “If you’re going to quote a source, quote their name,” he vented. “If they’re too chicken to give their name, don’t put it in the paper.” He and RCR have been fighting the issue for some time, and team owner Childress was forced several times last season to issue news releases that addressed sourced stories regarding their partnership. Childress angrily denied several times that Harvick,
All-Star lineup
CONCORD — Brian Vickers will miss the remainder of the NASCAR season because of blood clots in his lungs and left leg. Vickers was hospitalized two nights last week after feeling chest pains during a visit to Washington, D.C. Testing revealed the clots, and Vickers missed last weekend’s race at Dover. Vickers returned to North Carolina following his release from the hospital Friday night, but said a recurrence of chest pains sent him back to the hospital the next day. He spent another two nights hospitalized, and the decision to sit out the remainder of the season to receive treatment was made shortly after. “This is what I love to do, this is my life,” Vickers said Friday at Charlotte Motor Speedway, where he made his first public appearance since his ordeal began last Wednesday. “This is what I love to do, and I fully intend on doing it again.” The 26-year-old Vickers is being treated for a pulmonary embolism with the blood thinner Coumadin, and his physician couldn’t clear him to race because of the dangers of the driver being injured in a crash. “It is not advisable for him to race while he’s on blood thinners,” said Dr. Steven Limentani of Carolina Hematology Oncology. Vickers, seated between Limentani and Red Bull Racing general manager Jay Frye, then quickly lightened the mood. “I can actually race on blood thinners, I just can’t crash,” he smiled. “So I told them if I promise I won’t crash, will they let me race? “The answer was ’No.’ In my situation, let’s just say the minimum was three months and the recommended is six months — for me to come back with eight races left in the year and to run the risk of having this happen again just to cut it short at three months, I don’t think the reward really outweighs the risk. We’re going to go the full stay here and be committed to resolving the issue for the rest of my life.” Limentani, who treated NASCAR team owner Rick Hendrick when he battled leukemia, said the clots in Vickers’ lungs were “relatively small,” but gave the driver pains similar to being punched in the ribs every time he took a breath. The doctor said tests to determine what caused the clots will take a “number of weeks” to come back, and its possible they
issues limited him to two. Then just before the season opening race at Daytona, Miccosukee Resort and Gaming in Florida dropped out as primary sponsor of the No. 18 Toyota after the Indian tribe got a new leader. Busch has lined up some companies for single-race sponsorships and other smaller deals, but it hasn’t been nearly enough to cover the costs, even as Busch’s No. 18 team sits first in the owner’s standings. “Our trucks really run well, we’re fast,” Busch said. It just hasn’t paid the bills. The Charlotte Observer reported nearly a dozen companies involved in the construction of Busch’s race headquarters in Mooresville, have filed liens or intend to file liens because they are collectively owed about $1 million Earlier this week, Brian Ickler, who was driving the No. 18 truck when Busch could not due to Sprint Cup conflicts, took a job driving a car for Roush Fenway Racing in the Nationwide Series. Busch will use Johnny Benson, who he had hoped to drive the scrapped third car he had planned, in Ickler’s place in two weeks at Texas. “I have no reason to hold Brian Ickler back. It’s all for his best interest,” Busch said. “I feel like I’ve done what I’ve needed to do to help him move up, so hopefully he can make a name for himself and a place for himself over there at Roush and do a good job.”
Friday the matter was closed and he was optimistic that it opens the door for new owners Speedway Motorsports Inc. to finally bring a Cup race to the track. “If it means the end of that lawsuit, that’s great,” said Eddie Gossage, president of SMIowned Texas Motor Speedway. “I don’t know what that means for Kentucky, but I sure know that’s a great place where NASCAR should be racing.” SMI chairman Bruton Smith said last year he was prepared to move a race from one of his other facilities to Kentucky should the lawsuit be resolved. Now that he can move forward and petition NASCAR for a date at Kentucky, Gossage said his boss has not discussed his plans.

STATE CHAMPS!

East Rowan’s Evan Webb was the only pole-vault participant in the 3A track meet in Greensboro to clear 14 feet. He’s the first Mustang winner since Danny Misenheimer in 2000.
East’s Webb wins title in pole vault BY BRET STRELOW
bstrelow@salisburypost.com
GREENSBORO — East Rowan coach Rick Roseman received a text message last weekend from senior Evan Webb, who inquired about buying his track jersey once the season ended. Webb’s performance at the 3A state meet Friday created a different fate for the red top with blue and white lettering.
East retires the jerseys of state champions, and Webb joined the list by winning the pole vault at North Carolina A&T. He was the only competitor to clear 14 feet in a difficult headwind. “It’s really special, and I’m glad I could bring a state championship back to East Rowan,” Webb said. “I don’t get to keep my jersey, though, so I’m kind of mad about that, but it’s worth it.”
More track
Webb became the first East male to cap Bailey leads ture a state Wonders to track title fourth, 5B since 2000, when Danny Misenheimer won the shot put. Webb entered the state meet as the No. 6 seed after clearing 13-0 at the Midwest Regional. He missed on his
first two attempts at 13-6 on Friday. “I felt about this tall and I was scared,” Webb said while holding his index finger and thumb about an inch apart. “I lost every bit of confidence in myself until coach (Eric Morell) said, ‘Look, clear this and I’ve got a nice little carbon ESSX (pole) over here for you to jump on.” Webb cleared 13-6 to stay alive and then vaulted for the
first time with a carbon ESSX pole. He was a co-finalist along with Eastern Alamance’s Matt Cobb, and Webb succeeded on his first try at 140. Cobb missed on all three attempts. “This is what I’ve worked for since the first day of school, spending three hours a day in the weight room, doing workouts on the weekend by myself,” Webb said. “This
is the way I wanted to end it.” That ending limited Webb’s purchasing power, but a retired jersey in East’s trophy case isn’t a bad alternative. “To be honest, I want to cry right now,” Webb said. “It’s the last time I’m ever going to get to wear this uniform, and it’s tough. Coach Morell has helped me so much, and everybody up there (in the stands) has been really supportive.”

GREENSBORO — A fast start helped West Rowan’s Daishion Barger avoid pitfalls that have plagued him in previous state finals. Barger, in his third season as a title contender, collected the first championship of his prep career by winning the 110-meter hurdles at the 3A state meet Friday.

ayberry was abuzz with the news. The “Star Search” judges all the way from California had come to this sleepy little Carolina crossroads to look for the next Big Star on the Hollywood horizon.

ears ago, I ran across a piece written by Garrison Keillor describing Methodists. He wrote of everything from their devotion to God to their fondness for macaroni and cheese. In doing so, he reminded me of my own spiritual journey into the Methodist Church some 15 years ago. I had grown up in Faith in what is now Shiloh Reformed Church, KENT and remained BERNHARDT there well into my 30s. Marriage, family, and simple geography necessitated a change in my church affiliation, and I became a member of the United Methodist Church. In the ensuing 15 years, I have observed and learned much about Methodists, and I am happy to report that they are indeed a kind and devoted people, and that they really do possess a fondness for macaroni and cheese. I can honestly say that I feel welcome and challenged in the Methodist church, and I think I have a relatively good understanding of the basics of the Methodist beliefs. Here is a little of what I have learned: Methodists believe that no form of worship or church meeting should begin until coffee has been served. Fortunately, you usually don’t have to travel far in a Methodist Church to find a pot of coffee somewhere. Large Methodist gatherings must contain a covered dish dinner. It’s in the church bylaws. And large gatherings are a welcome event, mainly because Methodists are among the best cooks on the earth. Methodists believe that air conditioning is no longer a sin. They do believe, however, that you get into a gray area if it is turned on too early on a warm Sunday morning. One should never feel too comfortable. It’s part of the atonement for our sins. Methodists believe that polite applause is now an acceptable means of expressing approval of a pleasant musical performance during a church service, though simply smiling and nodding your head is still preferred by many members. Methodists believe that the spreading of church gossip is unacceptable and should be frowned upon as often as possible. Methodists believe that, during the passing of the peace, worshippers should venture no more than two rows from their assigned seats. Also, the passing of the peace is to end promptly on the organist's music cue. No exceptions. Methodists believe that the Bible is the total and complete word of God. Some of the more liberal Methodists, however, believe that early episodes of Star Trek offer subtle divine insight as well. Unlike Baptists, Methodists believe that dancing is acceptable under most circumstances. Unfortunately, most do not do it well. Methodist choirs believe in diligent practice on Wednesday nights, and group prayer just before entering the sanctuary on Sunday, just in case the diligent practice fails to do the job. If you are sick, Methodists will pray for you and shower your family with wonderful home cooked food, which your family will eat in front of you until you are well enough to throw away the leftovers and scrub and return the casserole dishes yourself. And finally, Methodists believe that every effort should be made to attend services regularly, and that there is no real reason to miss church on Sunday, even on the west coast where NFL games and NASCAR events start earlier. I believe these to be the basics of our faith, but remember, I’ve only been a Methodist for 15 years, so I’m still learning. Kent Bernhardt lives in Faith.

SALISBURY POST
Acts 2 The Holy Spirit Comes at Pentecost 1When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place. 2Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting. 3They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them. 4All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues[a] as the Spirit enabled them. 5Now there were staying in Jerusalem God-fearing Jews from every nation under heaven. 6When they heard this sound, a crowd came together in bewilderment, because each one heard them speaking in his own language. 7Utterly amazed, they asked: "Are not all these men who are speaking Galileans? 8Then how is it that each of us hears them in his own native language? 9Parthians, Medes and Elamites; residents of Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, 10Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya near Cyrene; visitors from Rome 11 (both Jews and converts to Judaism); Cretans and Arabs-we hear them declaring the wonders of God in our own tongues!" 12Amazed and perplexed, they asked one another, "What does this mean?" 13Some, however, made fun of them and said, "They have had too much wine.[b]" Peter Addresses the Crowd 14Then Peter stood up with the Eleven, raised his voice and addressed the crowd: "Fellow Jews and all of you who live in Jerusalem, let me explain this to you; listen carefully to what I say. 15These men are not drunk, as you suppose. It's only nine in the morning! 16No, this is what was spoken by the prophet Joel: 17" 'In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams. 18Even on my servants, both men and women, I will pour out my Spirit in those days, Acts 2 New International Version and they will prophesy. 19I will show wonders in the heaven above and signs on the earth below, blood and fire and billows of smoke. 20The sun will be turned to darkness and the moon to blood before the coming of the great and glorious day of the Lord. 21And everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.'[c] 22"Men of Israel, listen to this: Jesus of Nazareth was a man accredited by God to you by miracles, wonders and signs, which God did among you through him, as you yourselves know. 23This man was handed over to you by God's set purpose and foreknowledge; and you, with the help of wicked men,[d] put him to death by nailing him to the cross. 24But God raised him from the dead, freeing him from the agony of death, because it was impossible for death to keep its hold on him. 25David said about him: " 'I saw the Lord always before me. Because he is at my right hand, I will not be shaken. 26Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices; my body also will live in hope, 27because you will not abandon me to the grave, nor will you let your Holy One see decay. 28You have made known to me the paths of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence.'[e] 29"Brothers, I can tell you confidently that the patriarch David died and was buried, and his tomb is here to this day. 30But he was a prophet and knew that God had promised him on oath that he would place one of his descendants on his throne. 31Seeing what was ahead, he spoke of the resurrection of the Christ,[f] that he was not abandoned to the grave, nor did his body see decay. 32God has raised this Jesus to life, and we are all witnesses of the fact. 33Exalted to the right hand of God, he has

We still have some curriculum to squeeze into these students’ DOUG brains, CREAMER which are shutting down for the summer. It is really beginning to feel like crunch time. When I get to feeling this tired physically and emotionally, I have to admit that I feel drained spiritually too. I still read my Bible and pray, but the passion level has dropped. Thoughts of the beach, reading a good book, and catching up with good friends are the life preservers that help me make it to the end of the school year. Last Sunday I received a very unexpected life preserver. For various reasons I decided to visit a church I had heard good things about. I was curious about why I was hearing such good reports. I arrived with an open mind and heart and actually a little excited about having the opportunity to attend the service. When the music cranked

up, I began to sense the presence of the Lord. I pressed in because I was so hungry to be touched and refreshed by God. Sometime in the middle of the worship I felt the presence of the Lord in a profound way. I felt like we were standing on the edge of a lake with an open invitation to jump in. In my spirit I felt myself jump in and as I did, my soul was washed in his peace. I felt the joy of the Lord penetrating my heart and I felt refreshed in a way that I haven’t in quite a while. It was a beautiful gift from God. Why do we doubt God’s goodness? Some people believe that the God of the Old Testament is harsh. I think we need to read deeper and between the lines to understand God’s true character. Time and time again the people rebelled against God and worshiped idols. God didn’t give up on the people. He kept sending prophets or allowing foreign kings to oppress the people so they would return to the Lord in faith. When they repented, he was always there to rescue them. If you really think about it, God is very loving, compassionate, and long-suffering even in the Old Testament. God is good and blessed his people far beyond what they could imagine. He gave them the riches of Egypt and the Promised Land. The road of faith is never easy because God wants to challenge us to grow and mature, but that does not diminish his goodness and mercy. Jesus taught us about God’s love through parables, then laid
down his life to demonstrate his love.. I believe God wants us to experience his goodness, but we doubt his love and feel unworthy of his blessings. God wants to give us gifts but we won’t open the package and receive them. We need to understand that Jesus paid the price for all we have done and will do wrong, so we can be in God’s presence and receive his goodness and love. We serve a God who expects us to grow, mature, and raise the standards in our lives, but we also serve a God who loves us beyond what we can image and who desires to bless us with his goodness. I want to encourage you to believe that God loves you and that he is a good God. Some-
times when we are going through life’s struggles it is hard to believe that God is good, but those struggles can draw us closer to God. When you draw near to God we will experience His love and goodness. I believe that God wants to refresh us when we are tired or feeling overwhelmed. I believe God wants to meet us right where we are but we have to have open hearts and a hunger for His presence. I really want to encourage you to spend some time in his presence so you will be refreshed and you will experience the goodness of God. Doug Creamer’s website is www.dougcreamer.com.

BUSINESS HIGHLIGHTS The Dow Jones industrial average rose 125 points to 10,193.39 after falling below 10,000 in morning trading.. The volatility follows “correction” mode, a drop of more than 10 percent from 2010 highs set last month. European Union finance ministers backed tougher sanctions to prevent them running up too much debt in the hopes of winning back market confidence and getting a handle on the debt crisis that is threatening the euro. The European Union’s president Herman Van Rompuy said talks showed that “it was very clear that there was a broad consensus on the principle of having sanctions” — both financial and political. General Motors Co.’s European unit continued to struggle with high costs and a declining market. CEO Ed Whitacre got the last big piece of his plan to resurrect GM — a $1.25 billion restructuring deal with its European union, designed to stop Adam Opel GmbH from being a drain on GM profits. The cuts may not go deep enough for Opel to thrive in a competitive European market. Toyota Motor Corp. is recalling about 3,800 Lexus LS sedans in
the U.S. to fix a problem with the vehicle’s steering system following a similar recall in Japan. The company said the recall affects some 2009 and 2010 LS 460 and LS 600h sedans. Unemployment rates fell in a majority of states last month as improved economic conditions spurred hiring. The Labor Department said 34 states and the District of Columbia reported their jobless rates fell in April. Six states reported higher rates, while 10 saw unemployment hold steady. South Carolina’s rate fell to 11.6 percent in April, from 12.2 percent in March, marking the largest monthly drop of any state. Chrysler Group LLC gave a big boost to the battered Michigan economy when it announced plans to add about 1,100 workers to help build the new Jeep Grand Cherokee. The company made the announcement at a Detroit factory as it celebrated the start of Grand Cherokee production. Chrysler said it expects strong sales of the new sport utility vehicle, which is due in showrooms next month. Almost all the workers will be new hires.

Migraines controlled by smoking?
Do you recognize the risk? BY PHILLIP ALDER
United Feature Syndicate
When declarer does not recognize the danger to his contract, he will often fall to defeat. But when he sees the risk, he will usually find a solution -- if there is one. What is the danger in this four-heart contract after West leads the spade queen? How can declarer survive? West opened with a weak two-bid. North made a takeout double, then converted South's three-club advance to three diamonds. In this way, he kept hearts in the picture and showed extra values. South went from three diamonds to three hearts, and North raised, playing his partner for six or seven high-card points (the standard tactic for the intervenor after an opposing preemptive opening). Given that East has the spade ace (West would not lead a spade from the A-Q-J), South has three top losers: two spades and one club. So, he has to assume that West holds the heart king. That, though, is not the end of the story. Suppose declarer calls for the spade king at the first trick, wondering if West is being sneaky. East takes his ace, cashes the club ace, and returns his second spade. When West wins that trick and leads another spade, it promotes a trump trick for the defense. Either East overruffs the dummy or West scores his king. If South sees the danger, he will play low from the dummy
at trick one. Give West that trick, East the next spade and the top club, but West has no entry for the lethal third-spade play. Try to consider the various scenarios based on your play at trick one. Then the danger should become apparent.
James: No shirt, no regrets after ‘Idol’ run LOS ANGELES (AP) — Casey James wants to appeal to more than the opposite sex in his post-“American Idol” music career, despite what judge Kara DioGuardi (KEHR’-uh dee-oh-GWAR’dee) has to say. During a teleconference Friday, the tall, sweet-smiling Texan said he likes to think his appeal goes beyond what DioGuardi has described as his core demographic of women and girls. James says he doesn’t regret taking his shirt off at DioGuardi’s request during his first tryout with the judges.
Dear Dr. Gott: I am a 44year-old female with migraines. I am otherwise healthy with no other medical problems, but I’m about 30 pounds overweight. I was diagnosed with migraines at age 12 and was put on medication, but because of the side effects, my parents chose to take me off it, and until recently, I DR. PETER haven’t had any trouble. GOTT After smoking for 15 years, I finally quit when my mother passed away from lung cancer. Almost immediately after quitting smoking, my migraines came back and were so bad that I couldn’t function. With three active children, this was not an option for me, so I started smoking again, and the headaches went away. I am scared of what my future holds if I continue to smoke, and I truly want to quit. I went to my family doctor and a neurologist. I have tried several different medications, such as antidepressants, antiseizures and migraine-specific drugs, which didn’t work. I was on a blood-pressure medication briefly that worked well for the headaches, but after a while it caused my blood pressure to drop too much, and I ended up in the hospital being monitored. I don’t know what the connection is with smoking and
migraines, but I’m guessing it involves stress. Can you offer any suggestions on what to do so that my children don’t grow up without a mother? I don’t take any medicines except an occasional over-the-counter ibuprofen or naproxen for minor aches and pains. Dear Reader: I am not aware of any connection between smoking and migraines. However, in your instance, this is clearly the case. I cannot recommend you continue smoking in order to control the headaches. I can, however, try to offer you some advice and recommendations that you may not have tried. First, migraines are a type of headache that can be disabling when they occur. They typically cause severe one-sided head pain, may present with a visual aura and cause sensitivity to light and/or sound. Vomiting and nausea are also common symptoms. Each sufferer usually has specific triggers that, when a person is exposed to them, can result in a migraine. Triggers can include hunger, fatigue, hormonal changes, certain medications, stress, head trauma, changes in environment, sensory stimuli (such as bright lights or unusual smells) and certain foods, especially those with preservatives (nitrates), MSG or aged cheeses and wines. If possible, retreat to a quiet, comfortable place at the first sign of a migraine. Turn off the lights, apply heat or ice to your head and
neck, and gently massage the painful areas. For some, taking an aspirin or other OTC pain reliever with a caffeinated beverage such as a soda or coffee can boost the pain-relieving effects of the medication. Too much caffeine, however, may worsen the pain or lead to a withdrawal headache when the caffeine intake is stopped. Typical prescription medications include antidepressants, antiseizure drugs and migraine-specific medications such as those you have tried. For some people, certain blood-pressure medications and other cardiovascular drugs may also be beneficial. However, because you have tried this without success, I recommend one of the following alternative treatments. Be sure that you have physician approval first because not all these treatments may be appropriate for your case. Acupuncture may provide positive results, even though it is not routinely recommended because scientific studies have failed to show strong beneficial evidence. Because you have taken the conservative, modern-medicine route, now may be the time to try this ancient therapy. Biofeedback is a relaxation technique that utilizes special equipment to monitor and control certain physical responses. By understanding the body’s response to certain stimuli such as tension, a person may be able to learn how to control
and alter those responses. The herbs feverfew and butterbur have shown some positive results in preventing or reducing the severity of migraines. High doses of vitamin B2 may also act as a preventive. Still others have had success with coenzyme Q10. Finally, some migraine sufferers have had success with cervical manipulation; however, there is no scientific proof that chiropractic or spinal manipulation will help migraines. In the meantime, you should quit smoking. Substitute over-the-counter nicotine patches or gum to reduce the severity of your migraine symptoms during this stressful period. Dr. Peter H. Gott is a retired physician and the author of several books.

FOR THE RECORD HOMEOWNERSHIP
Throughout the housing downturn, the American dream of homeownership has remained. The most recent survey indicates 65 percent of Americans would still prefer to own a home rather than rent. Housing construction nationally rose to the highest level in 16 months in March. The increase was based largely on a surge in the South, where construction activity jumped 18 percent, the most significant increase in 10 months. After a record low in February, sales of new homes surged 27 percent in March, exceeding expectations as better weather and government incentives boosted sales. While the expired homebuyer tax credits did help 1.8 million people buy homes, 65 percent of survey respondents say the end of tax credits won’t reduce their personal interest in buying a home.
ECONOMY
The economy grew 3.2 percent in the first quarter, marking the third consecutive quarter of growth and confirm-
ing economists’ projections that the recession ended in the middle of 2009. Economists have long warned the service industry would have to catch up with the manufacturing sector for the economy to recover. In February, the service industry grew at its fastest pace in more than two years. Seven of North Carolina’s 11 economic sectors are forecast to see increases during 2010. Construction is
FOR THE RECORD
The Real Facts of N.C. Real Estate Issue 9, May/June 2010 expected to see the strongest growth, with a projected increase of 7.2 percent. Americans’ confidence in the economy rose in April to its highest level since the financial crisis escalated in September 2008.
FORECLOSURE FACTS
N.C. homeowners facing foreclosure will now be given more time, thanks to a new regulation that halts foreclosure actions once a homeowner asks for a loan modification. In addition, mortgage servicers are
now required to respond clearly and promptly when asked about mortgage assistance. North Carolina will receive $159 million as part of a federal aid package designed to fight foreclosures in states plagued by high unemployment. This allocation will go to the N.C. Housing Finance Agency, whose mission is to provide affordable housing options to residents. The share of homeowners
behind on their mortgages fell in the first quarter of 2010, the first drop in four years and a possible sign that the foreclosure crisis has peaked. The portion of mortgages that were
delinquent 30 days or more fell to 6.57 percent from 6.60 percent in the last three months of 2009. Though modest, it is the first decline in the delinquency rate since early 2006.

Rick Anicetti out at Food Lion parent company B Y S HELLEY S MITH
ssmith@salisburypost.com
Just months after being promoted, longtime Food Lion executive Rick Anicetti is out at parent company Delhaize America, according to a press release Friday. The press release said Anicetti “will leave the organization, effective May 21, 2010,” but it provided no other information about his exit from the company, and it did not give a reason for his departure. When asked for more information, Delhaize spokeswoman
Christy Phillips-Brown said, “Rick’s departure from the company follows a series of conversations with CEO Pierre-Olivier Beckers over a long period of time.” Beckers is president and CEO of BelgiumANICETTI based Delhaize Group and its subsidiary Delhaize America. Phillips-Brown said the changes
were effective immediately. In the press release, Becker said, “I want to thank Rick for his significant contributions to the company, both as CEO of Food Lion LLC and as CEO of Delhaize America Shared Services, where he helped to lay strong foundations for Delhaize America’s further development.” Anicetti had been promoted in a major restructuring of the company’s top management in February. Formerly CEO of Salisburybased Food Lion, he was, until Friday, executive vice president of
Delhaize Group and CEO of Delhaize America Shared Services, which also includes Bloom, Bottom Dollar and Hannaford stores. According to the press release, Carol Herndon, who had been serving as senior vice president of accounting and finance for Delhaize America, is now the company’s chief administrative officer, reporting to Beckers. Beckers said in the release that Herndon will bring a “wealth of experience and the strong leadership credentials she has earned during her long standing and suc-
Monsanto causes concern
cessful career with the company.” According to Delhaize Group’s website, Anicetti began his career with Hannaford Bros. Co. in 1980 in a retail management program, working his way up over the years. He joined Food Lion in August 2000 as chief operating officer and was promoted to president in September 2001. Anicetti could not be reached by telephone Friday. Delhaize shares fell $1.29, about 1.5 percent, Friday to $79.82. The stock has traded in a 52-week range of $63.91 to $85.42.
SBI gets Barber inquiry BY SCOTT JENKINS AND KATHY CHAFFIN news@salisburypost.com
Rowan County District Attorney Bill Kenerly has asked the State Bureau of Investigation to look into allegations that County Commissioner Jon Barber was drunk in his sixth-grade classroom at Southeast Middle School on Wednesday, the day before he resigned his teaching job. “I have talked to the SBI ... and I’ve asked them to kind of determine factually what happened two days ago and then get back to me with what the facts are, and then we’ll figure out where to go from there,” Kenerly said Friday. Barber resigned from the Rowan-Salisbury School System on Thursday. He told the Post he “just left early yesterday and told them I was pursuing other opportunities.” BARBER School system officials have said only that Barber resigned for personal reasons. Multiple sources told the Post, however, that Barber was removed from his classroom Wednesday morning by Southeast Principal Skip Kraft because of suspicion that he was intoxicated. Students at Southeast were taking end-of-grade tests that morning. Commissioners Chairman Carl Ford said

Organic farmer Colleen McDaniel is concerned that Monsanto has joined the N.C. Research Campus in Kannapolis.
But ag giant won’t use biotech in Kannapolis B Y E MILY F ORD
eford@salisburypost.com
KANNAPOLIS — Most people have never heard of Monsanto. But the company’s arrival at the N.C. Research Campus has alarmed some environmentalists and organic food proponents. The highest-profile tenant at the biotechnology complex in Kannapolis, Monsanto will build a 9,000-square-foot laboratory this summer in the Core Lab Building, the five-story campus centerpiece. Dole Food Co. chairman David Murdock owns the Research Campus, which includes branches of eight univer-
sities and more than a dozen private partners. One of the most controversial companies in the United States, St. Louis-based Monsanto is the world’s leading producer of genetically modified, or GM, seed and the herbicide Roundup. Monsanto has laboratories around the globe. In Kannapolis, the comMACISAAC pany will try to boost the nutritional content and taste of vegetables.
Documentary films accuse Monsanto of abuses ranging from forcing small farmers out of business to poisoning the environment. “I have concerns about Monsanto in general and the fact that they are coming to Kannapolis,” said organic farmer Colleen McDaniel, who leases a half-acre at the Cabarrus County incubator farm and serves as co-chair of the Kannapolis Environmental Stewardship Commission. “Their GM products are a risk to ancient seed stock that we’ve been using for hundreds and thousands of year,” she said. If the company grows genet-
ically modified crops in Cabarrus County, local farmers would have a difficult time earning organic certification for the same crops due to cross-pollination, McDaniel said. “It would be next to impossible for me to grow organic corn and soybeans,” she said. But Monsanto has no plans for growing fields in Cabarrus County and will not modify plant DNA at the Research Campus, said Dr. Susan MacIsaac, who will direct Monsanto’s work in Kannapolis. Instead, the company will use

Group claims Yadkin Riverkeeper illegally acting as lobbyist BY MARK WINEKA
mwineka@salisburypost.com
A loosely formed taxpayer group in Stanly County has filed a petition with the N.C. Secretary of State charging that Yadkin Riverkeeper Dean Naujoks is illegally acting as a lobbyist while also being an officer and employee of a nonprofit, charitable organization. Thomas M. NAUJOKS McCluskey, spokesman for the group, has asked Secretary of State Elaine Marshall to investigate Naujoks’ dual roles. “Charitable status does not al-

low an employee to be a registered lobbyist,” McCluskey said, emphasizing the word “registered.” Naujoks reportedly registered as a lobbyist April 1. The dual role “may seriously impact those contributing to a ‘charitable cause,’ when in reality the contribution would be supporting a paid lobbyist,” the group People Against Forced Takeover said in its press release. Naujoks was attending a National River Rally in Salt Lake City and issued a statement Friday afternoon. In it, he said several N.C. Riverkeepers and others with 501(c)(3) organizations have registered as lobbyists as a “precautionary measure.” “All of them retain their 501(c)(3) status and comply with

the N.C. Conservation Network, says, ‘If there’s any question about registering, the answer is register.’ ” Naujoks said. “It’s part of keeping our government process open and fair. “If you are lobbying and not registered, then that automatically will make you a bad lobbyist when it comes up and becomes public knowledge.”
EAST SPENCER — Ron Hines has resigned as chief of the East Spencer Police Department. Hines said he turned in his resignation around 4:45 p.m. Thursday. He had served as chief since October 2008. Town officials contacted by the Post said they didn’t know the resignation was coming. But Hines said simply, “It was time.” Hines, 44, joined the East Spencer Police Department full time in mid2008 after previously servHINES ing as a part-time officer. “I have enjoyed my time there and appreciate all the citizens and people that were helpful during my time,” he said. “I’d like to thank all the agen-

the law,” he said. “Considering Yadkin Riverkeeper has not spent any time in the Legislature this year engaged in direct lobbying, we clearly are complying with the law.” Naujoks said lobbyists are required to obtain a license from the N.C. Secretary of State if they spend up to 5 percent of their time within a 30-day period engaged in lobbying activity. “Dan Crawford, the lobbyist for

BARBER FROM 1A
Thursday he began receiving calls around 9 a.m. Wednesday from two parents of children in Barber’s classroom as well as a Southeast staff member. They told Ford the principal had removed Barber from the classroom because he appeared to be intoxicated. The parents who called Ford said their children sent them text messages describing the situation. According to the school system’s personnel policy, an employee can be required to submit to a bloodalcohol test when “reasonable suspicion” exists that the employee is violating policies prohibiting alcohol use at work. Foil said those tests are performed at a local clinic. Employees who violate the drug and alcohol policies can be disciplined or fired. Violations can also result in “referral for criminal prosecution” the policy says. “Reports are made to authorities if we feel there’s something criminal to report,” Foil said, “But if not, then no.” Sheriff Kevin Auten said Thursday his office wasn’t called by school officials. Ford passed along requests to look into the incident as a potential criminal matter to Auten. He turned it over to Kenerly because the Sheriff’s Office works closely with county commissioners. Kenerly said Friday he didn’t have a lot of information about the situation. “I haven’t personally interviewed any witness and, in fact, no citizen has called me with any information,” he said. “But I know ... that there is obvious public interest in what happened and whether there was any violation of law.” Kenerly said he doesn’t know whether Barber was required by school officials to take a blood-alcohol test. But if one exists, he “would certainly hope” the SBI obtains a copy of it for its inquiry. He expects to have a report from the SBI by the middle of next week, he said. Barber did not respond to messages from the Post seeking comment Friday. Other commissioners expressed support for Barber and for the SBI investigation. County Commissioner Raymond Coltrain, who was out of town when Barber resigned and was still out of town when he was interviewed Friday, called this week’s events unfortunate. Though Coltrain emphasized that he does not have the expertise to determine that Barber has an addiction to alcohol, he said, “If he has difficulty managing the substance of alcohol, then that’s where we have to stand behind him and be of help to him in that process.” Barber pleaded guilty to driving while impaired in June 2008 after being found in February of that year passed out in his car near the corner of Sherrills Ford and Long Branch roads. After being charged, he entered an alcohol treatment facility in Charlotte. Alcohol addiction is an illness, Coltrain said. “I know that society doesn’t seem to view it with as much empathy, if you will, as some oth-

er illnesses, but that’s what it is ... “I think we should not make any judgments or crucifixion at all. We should be in support of his efforts. Of course, it’s something only he can do, but we have to practice our Christian principles in this process by being in support of him.” As for Barber’s role as county commissioner, Coltrain said, “I hope he will continue to perform his responsibilities. I see no reason for him not being able to.” Commissioner Tina Hall said Friday she had not spoken with Barber or members of the Rowan-Salisbury Board of Education, but added, “If the allegations turn out to be true, it’s certainly disturbing on many levels.” As a retired school principal, Hall said, her foremost concern is for the students and their safety. “First of all, Jon is a teacher, and you wouldn’t expect a teacher to come to school intoxicated,” Hall said. “And if the students had to text-message parents, I wonder, were they afraid?” Hall said she hopes Barber can “get some help if this is true. ... I certainly wish him well and hope that he is able to get the kind of treatment that he needs to make himself whole again. Of course, our prayers go out for him, and we also hope that things are going well for the students at Southeast Middle School.” At this point, Hall said she is waiting for a report from the SBI. “Again, these are allegations,” she said. “I’m sure they’ll get to the source of it.” Hall said she did not know what the county board might do. The most it could do is censure Barber, according to Ford. “We’ll just have to wait to see what will transpire,” Hall said. Barber was the top votegetter in the Republican primary for county commissioner. Hall, who finished fourth in that race, will be in a runoff election June 22 with Vice Chairman Chad Mitchell, who came in third. When asked about the SBI investigation, Mitchell said, “The only thing that I’ve seen is that based on the comments of Kevin Auten yesterday, he didn’t see anything on the face of it that would be a chargeable offense. So I certainly respect the decision to turn that over to the SBI to look into.” Ford said Friday he had nothing new to say on the matter. He said Thursday he would “pray for Jon and hope for the best for him.” Barber, serving his first term as a county commissioner, told the Post Thursday he intends to remain on the board.

conventional plant breeding techniques to create bettertasting vegetables that pack a bigger nutritional punch. “There will be no biotech involved in the work that we’re doing at Kannapolis,” MacIsaac said. “We think that biotech has an important role, but we will not be doing that here.” Monsanto wants to improve the flavor of vegetables so people will eat more of them and receive health benefits, she said. Using state-of-the-art analytical tools at the Research Campus, the company can identify components of vegetables that contribute to flavor and then breed for those traits, she said. Until now, scientists have been limited in their ability to detect and measure these components, she said. “The tools have not been adequate,” she said. “That’s the benefit of being here on the campus.” Scientists have access to equipment they need to understand flavor and nutrition at the molecular level, she said. Monsanto uses biotechnology to give a plant a new trait, such as herbicide tolerance, said Riddhi Trivedi-St. Clair, public affairs manager. “We use biotechnology to confer a quality that a plant didn’t have,” she said. But work done at the Research Campus will focus on enhancing taste and nutrition, qualities already pres-

Naujoks called it a $200 expense for peace of mind, “and the forms are easy to fill out.” The petition to Secretary of State Marshall asks to bar Naujoks, an outspoken critic of Alcoa Power Generating Inc’s relicensing effort on the Yadkin River, from further lobbying or remove Yadkin Riverkeeper Inc. as a charitable organization with tax-exempt status. Interviewed Friday at his Richfield home, McCluskey said People Against Forced Takeover are citizens frustrated with Stanly County’s use of tax money toward confiscating Alcoa’s property — the dams and power-generating equipment that make up the federally licensed Yadkin Project. “There are probably about 20 of us altogether,” McCluskey estimated.

cies there that have helped us when we needed some assistance doing anything.” He said he was proud of re-establishing a mutual aid agreement with the Spencer Police Department, “which came in quite helpful a lot of times.” Hines, who lives in Winston-Salem, said he plans to “take me a big vacation right now,” then go back to work. “I’ve got other possibilities, other career opportunities ... nothing definite yet,” he said. “It was just time for me to move on.” When named chief of police in 2008, Hines became the fourth person to hold that title since 2005. He had previously worked for the High Point Police Department, the Davidson County Sheriff’s Office, the Thomasville Police Department and the Forsyth County Sheriff’s Office. In February, Hines received a Governor’s Award and a letter from Gov. Bev Perdue commending him for his service to East Spencer’s residents. At that time, Mayor John Cowan said he could not “think of one person who is more deserving of this award” and called Hines “a great asset to the police department and to the town of East Spencer.” Members of the town’s Board of Aldermen said they were surprised by the resignation. “This was a shock to me because I didn’t know anything,” said Aldermen John Noble, who is chairman of the town’s police committee. Noble said he learned of

ent in vegetables, Trivedi-St. Clair said. Monsanto can do that using traditional breeding methods, she said. Scientists will identify markers in plant DNA that are associated with traits of interest, MacIsaac said. They will use the markers to make selections during the breeding process. The company’s vegetable division in California will send plants to Kannapolis. While scientists at the Research Campus will do experiments and analysis, breeding and field testing will occur in California, MacIsaac said. The company could have an unlikely ally in Cabarrus County Manager John Day, an advocate for organic and locally-grown food. For decades, the food industry has bred crops for traits such as long shelf life and ease of mechanical harvesting, said Day, who serves on the N.C. Sustainable Local Food Advisory Council. “But as a result of that process, taste and nutritional value diminished,” he said. Developing better-tasting, healthier vegetables “can have a huge, positive economic impact” in Cabarrus County and North Carolina, he said. While Day acknowledged that he still has “deep concerns” about Monsanto’s genetically modified seeds and Roundup Ready crops, which are genetically engineered to tolerate weed-killing chemicals, he said he wants to collaborate with the company in Kannapolis. “If we can help them to
produce a better, more nutritious crop that respects the environment, then I’m happy to help,” he said. Others, however, are not convinced. The company’s announcement that it will not alter plant DNA in Kannapolis hasn’t swayed Bill Georgiou or Brad Hinckley. “This doesn’t justify the harm that they’ve done to this world,” said Georgiou, a local political activist. “This doesn’t change the fact that they created Agent Orange.” Murdock founded the Research Campus to help find a cure for cancer. Now the campus has welcomed a company that uses cancercausing chemicals, Georgiou said. “Where is the moral compass?” he said. Monsanto has a monopoly on seed and some crops, said Hinckley, an organic farmer. He was forced to use Roundup Ready corn when he raised cattle and hogs in Boone because there were no other varieties available, he said. Hinckley criticized the company’s liberal use of chemicals. “We don’t know what all these chemicals are doing to our children,” he said. Monsanto is not aware of opposition to the lab in Kannapolis, Trivedi-St. Clair said. “I’m not sure that we even have a good sense of that,” she said. No one from Kannapolis has complained to the company about Monsanto joining the Research Campus, she said. “If there is any opposition, it hasn’t come to us di-
rectly.” How to respond to public opposition would be a decision made at the corporate level, Trivedi-St. Clair said. But in general, Monsanto welcomes conversations with local people interested in agriculture, she said. “Monsanto is more than happy to engage with farmers every chance we get,” she said. When Monsanto joined the Research Campus last year, Dr. Steven Leath said he heard a few complaints. “A small but vocal part of the population is concerned about biotech enterprises,” said Leath, vice president for research for the UNC System. “But by and large, people are excited.” Leath worked with Monsanto at N.C. State University and helped recruit the company to Kannapolis. Monsanto has been “as good a corporate partner to the university as we could ask for,” he said. The company could collaborate with N.C. State in Kannapolis to develop super broccoli. Dr. Allan Brown’s team has produced a line of broccoli with higher levels of anti-carcinogen compounds. And he’s ready to compare notes with Monsanto. “We’re excited to have them on board and are looking forward to their expertise,” said Brown, whose office is next door to MacIsaac’s. Monsanto also has a fiveyear agreement with Dole, which will open a lab at the Research Campus, to investigate lettuce, broccoli, spinach and cauliflower.
The group has called into question the county’s spending $3.2 million to block Alcoa’s relicensing efforts. McCluskey says the amount represents 3.3 percent of the past year’s county budget, and it went toward public relations and advertising campaigns. “That’s a lot of money when they’re having to reduce the budget by 3 percent,” McCluskey said. “... All we are are people frustrated with commissioners and private development interests trying to steal Alcoa’s property.” McCluskey emphasized he personally had no connection to Alcoa. He said he is a retired accountant with IBM. “This thing is just sitting wrong with me,” he said. Some other members of the group are related to the original families who sold land to the company long ago for the reservoirs associated with the Yadkin Project, McCluskey said. “They’re upset the state could take land Alcoa bought,” he added. McCluskey, who said he
“stumbled across things” Naujoks was doing, said the riverkeeper should be independent and have no association with Stanly commissioners or development interests. McCluskey said his review of state and federal law suggests that Naujoks’ employment with a “religious and charitable” organization such as Yadkin Riverkeeper Inc. allows him to pursue only “insignificant lobbying” and prohibits lobbying for legislative actions. He said Naujoks has been lobbying the Legislature to pass Senate Bill 967, House
Bill 1455 and House Bill 1099 — all connected to establishment of a state trust to take over the Yadkin Project. Internal Revenue Service regulations stipulate that an organization with 501(c)(3) status may not attempt to influence legislation in any “substantial part of its activities,” the petition reads. Filed May 17, the petition also asks that Naujoks reveal what monies, if any, he has received for his lobbying efforts through the Water Rights Committee, Roger Dick of Uwharrie Capital Group and Stanly County.

the resignation Thursday night from Alderwoman Tammy Corpening. Corpening said she had no forewarning, either. “I’m personally heartbroken ... because the chief of police has resigned from East Spencer,” Corpening said. Noble and Corpening said no interim chief has been named by the board. Mayor John Cowan did not return a message from the Post seeking comment. Hines’ resignation comes as the town faces an audit of its use of grant funds received last year through the N.C. Governor’s Crime Commission. The Crime Commission began looking earlier this year into the town’s recordkeeping related to a nearly $540,000 grant for the East Spencer Gang Prevention Project. The state froze allocations to the town under the two-year grant while the inquiry went forward. Within the past couple of weeks, commission officials formally asked the State Auditor’s Office to perform an audit of the East Spencer program, said Craig Turner, assistant director of policy and planning with the Governor’s Crime Commission. “As far as I know, that’s in the process of being done,” Turner said.

Fisichella, who heads Vatican’s Pontifical Academy for Life, stressed there is no necessary clash between science and faith.
R124451
ROME (AP) — Catholic Church officials said Friday that the recently created first synthetic cell could be a positive development if correctly used, but warned scientists that only God can create life. Vatican and Italian church officials were mostly cautious in their first reaction to the announcement from the United States that researchers had produced a living cell containing manmade DNA. They warned scientists of the ethical responsibility of scientific progress and said that the manner in which the innovation is applied in the future will be crucial. “It’s a great scientific discovery. Now we have to understand how it will be implemented in the future,” Mon-

WASHINGTON (AP) — The White House’s leading candidate to replace Dennis Blair as national intelligence director is James R. Clapper, the Pentagon’s top intelligence official, current and former U.S. officials said Friday. Two current officials said another candidate is Mike Vickers, the Pentagon’s assistant secretary for special operations. But a Defense Department official said Vickers has not been contacted for an interview. All the officials spoke on condition of anonymity because a replacement for Blair has not been announced. Clapper currently is defense undersecretary for intelligence. President Barack Obama was already talking to candidates for national intelligence director’s job before Blair resigned Thursday under pressure from the White House. Obama spokesman Robert Gibbs said the president had spoken with a number of wellqualified candidates so he could have people ready in

Robertson Family Foundation approves $1.9M in grants Despite a volatile stock market, the Salisbury-based Blanche & Julian Robertson Family Foundation has completed the third largest series of grant approvals in its 13year history. More than $1.9 million in grants were approved in the foundation’s 2010 spring grant cycle with the Rowan-Salisbury Schools accounting for $685,874 of that total. The largest school grant was for $250,950, designated for an expansion of the 21st century model classroom project. These funds will raise the total of highly equipped classrooms from 25 to 36, providing “an engaging environment” where the students can gain “skills they will need to be successful in life,” said
Phil Hardin, the RSS system’s executive director of technology. Knox Middle School received the second largest educational grant — $150,000 — for developing its technological program to prepare sixth-grade students for the challenges that await them. Principal Rodney Burton stressed the goal of “closing the achievement gap with these technological resources.” The foundation received 120 grant applications, the largest number in its history. Members of the board of directors reviewed the requests and engaged in some long debates about how to allocate the dollars among the grants which were approved. Given the national economy, the
earning capacity of the foundation's assets and the nature of the requests, the decision-making was difficult, Executive Director Dave Setzer reported. Among the approved funds was the Continuing Support Grant Program, which includes six agencies receiving gifts on a rolling cycle of three years, followed by a board review and action of modification or renewal. Current members of the continuing grant program are the Community Care Clinic, $25,000; Communities In Schools, $50,000; Habitat for Humanity, $20,000; Meals on Wheels of Rowan, $35,000; Rowan County United Way Day of Caring program, $40,000; and Rowan Helping Ministries, $50,000.
The foundation was chartered in the fall of 1997 with an initial gift of $15 million by Salisbury native Julian H. Robertson Jr., now of New York City. He named the charitable foundation in memory of his parents, Blanche S. and Julian H. Robertson, Sr., longtime residents and civic leaders of Salisbury. Over the past 13 years, Robertson has increased his gifts to the foundation by an additional $21 million. The foundation has a current operating investment base of $18.2 million. In 13 years, the foundation has approved $23 million in grants, all of which have been given solely to agencies and organizations in Salisbury and Rowan County. The foundation board is chaired

Sheriff’s office clears Cabarrus animal control officer Internal investigation determines appropriate action taken in shooting of pit bull BY EMILY FORD
eford@salisburypost.com
CONCORD — The animal control officer who shot and killed a pit bull in a Concord neighborhood last month has been cleared of wrongdoing by the Cabarrus County Sheriff’s Office. An internal investigation “determined that the officer acted appropriately to protect the potential harm presented to the citizens by shooting the pit bull that could not be captured,” according to a press release from Sheriff Brad Riley. “This is a horrible situation,” Riley said. “No officer ever wants to be put in this situation, and no citizen ever wants their animal killed.” Cabarrus County Animal Control Officer Sean Austin acknowledges on a video posted online that the pit bull, a family pet named “Bella,” was not aggressive toward him and that he shot it because it was taking too

Mynatt keeps Chevy franchise CONCORD — Ben Mynatt Chevrolet Cadillac will stay in business after General Motors agreed to reinstate the franchise, the dealership said in a press release Friday. “We are thrilled to be back with General Motors,” Cyndie Mynatt, chief executive officer of Ben Mynatt Chevrolet Cadillac, said in the press release. “We are more determined than ever to serve our customers and continue a tradition that has lasted for more than 30 years,” Mynatt said. “We also want to thank all our supporters, who have been absolutely instrumental in the success of our campaign.” Ben Mynatt was among 2,000 dealerships nationwide that lost GM franchises last year as the company reorganized in an effort to return to profitability. But Congress passed a law requiring an appeals process for the dealers and many regained their franchises. Among them was Team Chevrolet in Salisbury, which learned in March it would keep its Cadillac franchise after initially being stripped of the brand by GM. Team was among 661 dealerships to have franchises reinstated by General Motors at that time, but Ben Mynatt wasn’t. Ben Mynatt and the community continued a campaign to save the Chevrolet Cadillac dealership, which included a petition, the website www.savebenmynattchevy. com and a Facebook page that attracted 600 fans. The company says hundreds of letters also poured into the dealership, including support from U.S. Sen. Richard Burr, U.S. Rep. Larry Kissell and N.C. Commerce Secretary Keith Crisco.

long to catch. But the sheriff’s report details six eyewitness accounts of the pit bull “displaying behavior and posture that lead those officers to believe the dog would bite someone if allowed to continue running at large,” the press release said. The sheriff’s office has reviewed the one and a half minute video of Austin arguing with dog owners Jessica Juba and Jeff Daniels, who recorded it using his phone and posted it on YouTube. “However, it is important to have the full 17-20 minute recording to make a fair assessment,” the sheriff’s office said. A lawyer has advised Juba and Daniels not to turn over the complete video and other information about the shooting, Juba said. The couple is considering filing a lawsuit. In the video, Austin’s comment “clearly shows he became frustrated,” the press release said. “Howev-
er, his comments are not reflective of the actions in the report, and those comments are being addressed.” Four law enforcement officers tried for one hour to contain the pit bull, the release said. Juba and Daniels say Austin tried for 20 minutes to capture their dog, who had escaped through a hole in the backyard fence while they were gone. “The four law enforcement officers on the scene decided that all means for containing the dog had been exhausted,” the release said. “The officers collectively decided that it was in the best interest of the public to shoot the unidentified, un-collared pit bull rather than allow it to continue running at large and potentially harming someone.” The family’s other pit bull, “Jaxson,” jumped willingly into an officer’s car and was not injured. The internal investigation includes eyewitness accounts from
Concord police officers, a Cabarrus County sheriff’s deputy, neighbors and victims. The victims are a woman and her 8-year-old neighbor who called 911. “They called out of fear of being bitten, as the two pit bulls had appeared in her backyard and placed them in a position where she felt she needed to put the 8-year-old behind her and back up against her neighbors’ fence,” the sheriff’s office said. According to the release, the woman told authorities, “I have no doubt in my mind that a few seconds longer would have spelled tragedy for (the child) and myself...Those dogs were closing in on us and there was nothing I could do.” Bella’s owners and others have criticized Austin for using deadly force instead of a tranquilizer gun. Austin was not certified to use a tranquilizer gun because no training

The pickup had not been damaged, and the electric motor was still in the back. The sheriff’s office brought in a dog to track down the suspect, but was unable to locate him. Deputies continued to patrol the area until later in the day, eventually spotting a man coming out of the woods and walking across Enochville Road. They apprehended the suspect, Chad Franklin Wall, and turned him over to the Cabarrus County Sheriff’s Department.

Jobless rate drops in April for 2nd month RALEIGH (AP) — North Carolina’s jobless are having more success looking for work as the unemployment rate dropped for the second straight month in April to 10.8 percent. The state’s Employment Security Commission reported Friday that the jobless rate fell from 11.1 percent in March and 11.2 percent in February, the worst since the current calculation method started in 1976. The improvement pushed North Carolina out of the top 10 states with the worst unemployment. Thirty-four states and the District of Columbia reported lower jobless rates in April, the U.S. Labor Department said Friday. There were 16,500 fewer people on North Carolina unemployment rolls in April than the previous month. The number of non-farm jobs increased by 7,500 in April. And evidence continued that people previously discouraged by the lack of work started looking for jobs again. The data also contained the good news that manufacturers added 700 jobs in the month and increase the hours worked by existing employees, a trend that could lead to more hiring.

Tranquilizing animals with heightened adrenaline levels can elevate their aggression, resulting in a higher risk of attack, the sheriff’s office said. “As an agency, we make every attempt to capture and contain an animal running loose,” Riley said in the statement. “However, human life and safety must always come first in our duty to protect the citizens of Cabarrus County.” Now, Cabarrus County Attorney Richard Koch is conducting his own review of the incident at the request of the county commissioners. Koch had planned to release his findings yesterday but extended the deadline “to allow sufficient time for independently verifying statements and claims that were presented by witnesses and by the sheriff office’s internal investigation,” according to a release from the county manager’s office. Koch is expected to complete his review by Thursday. He will schedule a news conference to release his findings and any recommendations. Koch will determine “if additional requirements or safeguards should be included in the Cabarrus County Animal Control Ordinance to better protect both pets and people,” the release said. According to County Manager John Day, Koch is reviewing the sheriff’s investigation as well as other documentation from witnesses. In Cabarrus County, the sheriff’s office is charged with enforcing the animal control ordinance set by the commissioners. While commissioners have no authority over the sheriff’s office, they do have authority to amend the ordinance. Juba, Bella’s owner, is the niece of former county commissioner Joni Juba.

DARTS AND LAURELS
Not so many regular Joes Laurels to the happy task of naming babies, something the Social Security Administration tracks. The news broke recently that the top names in the nation are Isabella and Jacob. While those names are high on the list in North Carolina, they are not the top names. Here, you’re more likely to meet Emma and William. (Other top newborn names in the state, in order of popularity, are Madison, Isabella, Ava and Abigail for girls; Jacob, Christopher, Noah and Joshua for boys.) Let’s hope they are with us for a long time. Judging by numbers from the North Carolina State Center for Health Statistics, today’s newborn Emmas and other female newborns have a life expectancy of about 77, while William and his cohorts’ life expectancy is 70. In that period of time, their names will have gone out of style and come back again. • • • Dart to the potential damage of what experts predict will be a worst-than-average hurricane season in the Atlantic basin. Forecasters predict 15 named storms between June 1 and Nov. 30, and it appears as many as eight could develop into full hurricanes — four with winds of 111 mph or better. That’s amazingly specific for something as unpredictable as weather, but meteorology has made big advances. The Institute for Business and Home Safety — a nonprofit organization supported by the property insurance industry — says a new, well-installed roof is one of the best forms of protection available. Other tips: Protect all exterior-wall openings (storm shutters, impact-resistant windows, bracing systems for garage doors); secure loose roof shingles; seal openings, cracks and holes; strengthen soffits and limit potential flying debris. For more specifics, go to www.disastersafety.org. • • • Laurels to the government agencies and private lenders that are helping distressed homeowners hang onto their houses. Attendees at this week’s Foreclosure Expo in Salisbury got some good information about potential aid and options from groups such as tthe North Carolina Housing Finance Agency, Legal Aid North Carolina, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and the North Carolina Housing Coalition. (The Salisbury Post was one of several co-sponsors of the event). Unfortunately, despite glimmers of improvement in the economy, many homeowners are still in danger of defaulting on their loans. A report earlier this week noted that the number of people behind on repaying mortgages hit a record high in the first quarter.
Common sense
(Or uncommon wisdom, as the case may be)
“If you want to walk on water, you have to get out of the boat” — John Ortberg
Moderately Confused
Deciding what change means T
he next time you hear a politician running for office demand “change” — which will probably be in about five minutes — ask yourself what he or she means. He or she will probably say Washington, meaning the federal government, must stop spending your hard-earned money and, beyond that, money the country does not have. He or she will undoubtedly insist that the federal government has gotten too big, too out of control and too intrusive into everyday life, (meaning government should only get involved in situations that don’t actually affect us very much). But the honest answer to what “change” means will be highly unpopular in many arenas. It means that the average age for retirement will have ANN be raised because Social MCFEATTERS to Security is taking more and more of the federal budget. We will each have to work longer (in lower paying jobs) and receive smaller benefits when retirement is finally on the horizon. Those of us who haven’t been able to save much will be far poorer than we expected. Changing the status quo will mean that Medicare will cover fewer health expenses and that those with means won’t get the benefits they expected. Doctors’ expenses paid by Medicare will be cut. If the Tea Partiers have their way, which is still an open question, the federal government won’t step into “social” issues such as gun ownership, abortion and what constitutes a good education. And the federal government won’t step into state immigration laws such as Arizona’s — which authorizes law enforcement to detain people who can’t immediately prove their citizenship - or local environmental problems, even where public hazards may exist. Tea Partiers say they do not want lawmakers to go to Washington to bring home money for local or state projects, no matter how necessary. Many Tea Partiers want corporations to pay less in taxes, don’t want Wall Street to face stiff new regulations and want capital gains taxes slashed. If the Tea Partiers have their way, there will be no new federal efforts to cut green-
LETTERS
house gas emissions to try to slow down climate change. (However, a new federal study by the respected National Research Council of the National Academy of Sciences said the debate is over: Climate change is real, driven mostly by the burning of fossil fuels and deforestation, and that Congress should act quickly.) Regulations will depend on state and local authorities, who may or may not be corrupt, as federal oversight diminishes and federal tax dollars disappear. Impoverished local jurisdictions will raise taxes or cut spending. Such services as street sweeping, street lights, leaf collection, trash pick-up and landscaping services, including mowing public areas, will be privatized and paid for by citizens or won’t exist at all. Children will pay for school buses and full-price lunches or walk and go hungry. If the Tea Partiers had had their way in recent years, there would be no health care law mandating coverage, more banks would have failed, the stimulus money, which is rebuilding roads and bridges around the nation, would not have been authorized and the country might not be recovering from recession. The Tea Party movement, which is basically the most conservative element of the Republican Party, is appealing in some ways and frightening in others. There is still no clear answer on what the partiers want to stand for and accomplish to make the country better, only what they oppose. Or, as Sarah Palin says, not just “the party of no, but the party of hell, no.” But then what? Rand Paul, the Tea party bastion that won the Republican primary for Senate in Kentucky, is honest about what to expect if the partiers take over. “In order to preserve our great nation, tough choices will have to occur. So many Republicans have been elected, and they say, ’We’ll cut your taxes, but then we’ll bring you home the pork.’ It’s coming to an end because we can’t manage the debt.” It’s going to be a fascinating election year, one that forces us to ask ourselves many difficult questions. • • • Scripps Howard columnist Ann McFeatters has covered the White House and national politics since 1986.

TO THE
Mexico’s president shows lack of respect for U.S. law In an AP story in the May 20, Salisbury Post there were quotes by the president of Mexico, Felipe Calderon, that were very disturbing. He warned that Mexico would reject any effort to criminalize migration. The key word here is migration. This word used instead of immigration implies that the free movement of Mexican citizens across the border between our countries is a right, not a priviledge. Understandably, immigration reform has been made a volitile subject in light of legislation passed by the state of Arizona. Regardless of personal opinions on the immigration debate, Felipe Calderon and the country he represents have no respect for the sovereignty of our nation or the laws that govern it. — Eric Upton China Grove
A special ceremony On Saturday, May 8, I had the privilege to be at the National Cemetery in Salisbury. The 88th Brigade New York Guard was there to pay special honor to Lorenzo Deming and all Union Soldiers who were buried there. Lorenzo Deming died at the Salisbury Prison on Feb. 8, 1865, of pneumonia at the age of 25. On Oct. 27, 1865, he was awarded the Medal of Honor. I was moved to tears by the Union Armies Burial Rights and the 88th Brigade’s professionalism and sincerity. Thank you for all that you do! To my friend, Rodney Cress, thank you for giving of your time, finances and energy the past 16 months to make this become a reality. Lastly, to the men and women who serve or have served this great nation, thank you. — Bill Godair Salisbury

The flowers and hanging baskets are a great addition to our downtown. Thank you for all of the hard work and effort you put forward all year long. I am also so very happy that the Barbecue Festival was a success in Spencer! I was among the 2,000 people who had a great time and enjoyed the great food. Way to go, folks!

Willing to forgive To whoever thought it was OK to steal religious items from my front yard the night before Mother’s Day, I am asking that you return them, with no questions asked. If you refuse to return them, I’ll forgive you and bless the mother who has them. My yard and porch don’t look the same, and to say I’m hurt would be an understatement. I’ll survive the loss because of my faith, and yes, I’ll forgive you for taking them. — Betty Martin China Grove
enerally, when waiting in a checkout line, I want the clerk to be friendly, but professional; engaging, but not overly chatty; and above all, I want the line to keep moving. Today, however, I didn’t mind waiting. When you see something that you have never seen — and you were pretty sure you had seen it all — you ought to pay attention. First, let me say this: Trader Joe’s is my favorite market, partly for the food, but mostSHARON ly for the kind of people who work RANDALL there. And if it weren’t my favorite store before, it would be after today. Here’s why. Today, two carts ahead of me at the checkout stand, a woman stopped rummaging through her purse and beamed at her daughter, a little girl of about 7 or 8, with long thick curls and smart brown eyes. The child was standing behind the counter with the clerk, a pleasant-looking man with glasses and gray hair, not very old, but old enough to understand that there are moments in life that shouldn’t be hurried, and that all customers are valuable, including the youngest ones who have no money. Apparently the little girl had asked a question about how he scanned the groceries, and instead of offering some quick dismissive answer, he invited her to help. Seconds later, after she mastered the fine art of scanning bar codes and began moving cans from the cart to the counter quicker than you could say, “Have a nice day,” he smiled, stepped back and watched. We all watched — the clerk, the child’s mother, those of us in line, even the other clerk who opened a new register to keep things moving. We smiled and nodded, exchanging knowing looks, as if to say, “Oh, would you look at that!” All of us, that is, except for the man directly in line behind me, who kept glancing at his watch. When the second clerk motioned for me to move to her register, I turned to the man. “Would you like to go ahead of me?” I asked. He hesitated, then smiled. “No,” he said. “It’s OK. I can wait.” Meanwhile, child labor was proceeding nicely on aisle seven, until the bananas gave her pause. There’s no bar code on bananas. She wrinkled her nose and looked up at the clerk. He leaned down and quickly demonstrated how to punch in the secret banana code. She thanked him and went back to work, zipping through yogurt, crackers, juice, whatever, item by item, until everything had been scanned, totaled and bagged. And she never had to stop and call for a price check. When my daughter was barely big enough to sit up in a grocery cart, her main ambition in life was to become a checker. For Christmas, when she was 3, we gave her a toy check stand made of cardboard, complete with an assortment of fake groceries, and a real adding machine I bought at a garage sale for a dollar. Lord, how she loved that adding machine. She slept with it under her pillow. Somehow she grew up to be a teacher, not a checker, but she still swears the adding machine was her best present ever. And yet she would have traded it in a heartbeat — and gladly have thrown in both of her brothers — for a chance to scan a few real groceries. I wish it had occurred to me to ask someone to let her try. I don’t know what that little girl at the checkout stand will want to be when she grows up. She’d make a fine checker, but I suspect she’d be good at most anything. Of this much I am certain: She may not long remember how to punch the secret banana code into a scanner. But she won’t soon forget that someone — a stranger, of all things — cared enough to take the time to let her try. We are all in the business of rearing children together, whether they fall asleep every night in our arms or under our bridges. It’s up to them to choose what they will make of their lives. It’s up to us to give them a chance to try. • • • Sharon Randall can be contacted at www.sharonrandall.com.

Wheaties unveils commemorative Earnhardt box
GENERAL MILLS
Friends and family of Dale Earnhardt unveil a Wheaties Box, celebrating the racing legend’s Hall of Fame induction, including Richard Childress, CEO of RCR Racing, daughter, Taylor Earnhardt, and son, Kerry Earnhardt. General Mills driver Clint Bowyer. “It’s great to see Wheaties pay tribute again to Dale Earnhardt by honoring him with a second commemorative box, especially since it takes place at the same time as his induction,“ said Richard Childress, president and CEO of Richard Childress Racing. “Dale was, and always will be, a champions’ champion who represents the best that motorsports offers to its millions of fans worldwide.“ “It’s really an honor for my family and me to see this
Wheaties box,“ said Taylor Earnhardt. “My dad was a true champion and this box helps celebrate his legacy.“ “The Wheaties box will have special meaning to so many of his fans and help carry on his legacy,“ said Kerry Earnhardt. “We’re very excited to see this special Wheaties box on store shelves.“ “Dale would be honored by this announcement today,“ said Teresa Earnhardt. “It’s great to see Wheaties continuing the legend with this special box.“ Earnhardt is joined in the
inaugural class by Bill France Sr., Bill France Jr., Richard Petty and Junior Johnson. Honorees will be inducted in a ceremony happening on Sunday, May 23. Race fans can help celebrate Earnhardt’s legacy next week at the Food Lion Speed Street 600 Race Festival in downtown Charlotte. The original Wheaties car driven by Earnhardt in the 1997 race will be showcased at the Wheaties display. The new commemorative box hits store shelves this summer. Born out of a fortunate mistake in 1924, original Wheaties was created when a health clinician accidentally spilled a wheat bran mixture onto a hot stove. The result was tasty, crispy wheat flakes that became known as Washburn’s Gold Medal Whole Wheat Flakes. A year later, the cumbersome name was shortened to Wheaties. Baseball legend Lou Gehrig was the first athlete featured on a Wheaties Box, when he appeared on the back cover in 1934. In 1958, American champion pole-vaulter Bob Richards was the first person to appear on the front of the package, jumpstarting the phenomenon of “being on the Wheaties box,“ which has since been graced by some of the greatest athletes of all time, including Bruce Jenner, Walter Payton, Mary Lou Retton, and many others.

Wheaties has unveiled a special-edition Dale Earnhardt commemorative box, honoring the legendary career of the Kannapolis driver and celebrating his induction into the NASCAR Hall of Fame. Earnhardt’s record-tying seven championships, 76 victories and fan popularity helped propel him into the “Breakfast of Champions“ honor. Earnhardt becomes the first stock car driver to be featured on the Wheaties box twice. He first appeared on a series of boxes in 1997 when he raced a Wheaties paint scheme in the All-Star event that same year. And, now Wheaties honors his competitive spirit and champion attitude in connection with his induction. “Dale Earnhardt signifies everything that makes a champion,“ said David Clark, vice president for Wheaties. “His record speaks for itself, but it was also his hard work and determination that made him an inspiration to so many. We’re honored to feature him again and to help celebrate his latest acknowledgements.� Among those at the unveiling of the new Wheaties Box on Friday morning at the Charlotte Motor Speedway were Taylor Earnhardt, the driver’s youngest daughter; Kerry Earnhardt, his oldest son; Richard Childress, founder and owner of Richard Childress Racing; Jeff Steiner, executive vice president and general manager of Dale Earnhardt Inc.; and current

RALEIGH (AP) — North Carolina Gov. Beverly Perdue granted a pardon Friday to a man absolved of a murder conviction in the first case of its kind in the country. Perdue pardoned Greg Taylor after learning the results of DNA tests done by Raleigh police on clothes Taylor had worn the night of the 1991 killing of Jacquetta Thomas, for which he spent almost 17 years in prison. “This should put the matter to rest,� Taylor told The Associated Press. “Now I hope the (Raleigh) Police Department puts this matter to rest and starts looking forward as to who actually committed this crime.� Taylor already had plans to celebrate his daughter’s 27th birthday Friday night. He hadn’t been able to celebrate her birthday in freedom since she was 9 years old. Taylor was exonerated of Thomas’ murder in February by three judges who heard the case as a result of the work of the North Carolina Innocence Inquiry Commission, the only panel of its kind in the country. Perdue had delayed issuing an official pardon, saying she wanted to see more evidence. On Friday morning, she learned the results of the DNA tests on Taylor’s clothing. “To make sure there was no doubt cast on her decision, she wanted to wait for the results,� Perdue spokeswoman Chrissy Pearson said. “It was the final piece she was waiting for.� Found innocent of the crime, Taylor is now eligible for $750,000 in compensation payments from the state Industrial Commission thanks to the pardon. Chris Mumma, an attorney for Taylor, said it was a big relief even though Taylor knew the DNA testing would come back with no connection to him. “He’s been having this hanging out there for a while,� Mumma said. “Hopefully this removes any doubt in anybody’s mind.�

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama directed the government Friday to set the first mileage

and greenhouse gas emission standards for commercial trucks and buses. Such vehicles are big polluters and fuel consumers even though they’re far outnumbered by passenger cars. The Union of Concerned Scientists, an environmental advocacy group, said large trucks represent about 4 percent of all vehicles on U.S. highways but devour more than 20 percent of fuel. According to the Environmental Protection Agency, commercial trucks account for 21 percent of greenhouse gas emissions in the transportation sector — compared with 33 percent for passenger cars and 29 percent for SUVs, pickups and minivans.

Obama seeks tougher mileage standards for cars, big trucks
and pollution limits for big trucks and to tighten rules for future cars and SUVs, setting the nation’s sights on vehicles that run on half the fuel they now use and give off half the pollution. “The nation that leads in the clean energy economy will lead the global economy. And I want America to be that nation,” Obama declared at the White House as he signed a presidential memorandum that would reshape the country’s driving habits long after he leaves office. With the catastrophic oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico underscoring the risks of America’s heavy reliance on fossil fuels, Obama gave federal agencies just over a year to come up with fuel efficiency

Japan, China and South Korea. The Chinese have the most leverage over the reclusive regime, and Beijing’s support for any international response to Pyongyang will be critical to its success. But China, North Korea’s main ally and a veto-wielding permanent member of the Security Council, has thus far remained neutral. While it was “premature” to discuss exact options or actions that will be taken, Clinton said it was “important to send a clear message to North Korea that provocative actions have consequences.”

SHANGHAI (AP) — Citing “overwhelming” evidence that North Korea sank a South Korean warship, U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton warned the communist state Friday of international consequences. After discussions in Tokyo, Clinton planned to consult with counterparts in Beijing and Seoul on appropriate measures to take after an international investigative team Thursday blamed North Korea for firing a torpedo that sank the South Korean ship in March, killing 46 sailors. “This will not be and cannot be business as usual. There must be an international — not just a regional, but an international — response,” she told a press conference in Tokyo, flanked by Japanese Foreign Minister Katsuya Okada.

Mustang mashers Pitchers deserve their due
Homers too much for Tigers BY MIKE LONDON
G
RANITE QUARRY — If Brian Hatley had his way, you wouldn’t be reading this. You’d be reading about Preston Troutman and Will Sapp, the East Rowan table-setters who instead cleared the tables in FriDAVID day night’s SHAW third-round 4-2 win against Mount Pleasant. Or you’d be learning all about the 1-2 pitch Andy Austin drilled for a gametying, RBI double to the right-center gap with two away in the bottom of the fourth inning. But Hatley — the Mustangs’ revered, chessmaster of a pitching coach — can’t stop the news from happening. And he can’t stop you from reading about East’s lights-out bullpen and the hermetically sealed relief it has provided throughout this magical mystery tour of a season. But here you are. And here he is. “Right now the less people know about our pitching staff, the better,” he quipped with a sideways glance, suggesting just the two of you are in on the secret. “But it’s probably too late. I think quite a few people have heard about us by now.” • And rightly so. With a 26-2 record and 1.72 team ERA, it’s difficult to go undetected — particularly as

GRANITE QUARRY — Staton Field E. Rowan 4 was packed M. Pleasant 2 wall-to-wall and groundto-roof, and no one left early. East Rowan outlasted Mount Pleasant 4-2 in the third round of the 3A playoffs by doing something it rarely does — hitting it over the fence. East mashed 25 homers in 2008 when it reached the 3A championship series. It had just nine this season before it went deep twice on Friday. Back-to-back jacks by leadoff man Preston Troutman and Will Sapp in the sixth finally rescued East (26-2), but the Mustangs’ season hung by a slender thread for most of the damp evening. “That was a state-championship game,” said drained MP coach Bryan Tyson. “We went at it toe-to-toe with ’em.” Mount’s Grayson Atwood, a hard-throwing righty who fired the game of his life, was a hero for five innings. “Grayson has not pitched that much — he’s kind of a project — but he wanted that ball tonight and he showed he can be special if he’ll stay with it,” Tyson said. East won’t argue. “His fastball was good,” East first baseman Andy Austin said. “And his curveball had a great break on it.” East didn’t have a baserunner until the third and didn’t get a base hit until the fourth, but the Mustangs executed coach Brian Hightower’s grind-it-out gameplan. Everyone battled Atwood. Outs piled up, but few were easy. “We were patient at the JON C. LAKEY/SALISBURY POST

East softball rips Vikings BY JORDAN HONEYCUTT sports@salisburypost.com
GRANITE QUARRY —The East Rowan softball team E. Rowan 10 capitalized early and C. Cabarrus 3 often with key hits and patience against erratic Central Cabarrus pitcher Mellena Helms to earn a 10-3 victory Friday in the second round of the 3A playoffs. Chelsea White was strong yet again for East, holding the Vikings scoreless until the fourth inning and striking out eight batters. She allowed just four walks.
The bats of the Mustangs were sizzling early, giving White an early cushion after two innings. In the first, East’s first three batters were walked by Helms, then catcher Kayla Potts drove home two with a clutch, two-out single up the middle. Helms’ wildness was demonstrated again in the second as she hit Megan Klutz and walked Steffi Sides. Shortstop Ericka Nesbitt then sent a screamer into left field which went through the legs of Central left-fielder Ali Hartsell, allowing Nesbitt to motor all the way home to score and give East an early 5-0 lead.
“We really were able to capitalize on their control problems and we came up with big hits early,” said Mustang coach Mike Waddell. East kept the pressure on in the third by loading the bases with walks to Klutz and Nesbitt, along with a Sides single. Pinch-hitter Bobbi Thomas delivered with a rocket to center that scored two more East Rowan runs. The Vikings finally got to White in the fourth inning when Tori Cragan led off with a double, Helms singled, Lindsey
Busch on pole BY MIKE CRANSTON Associated Press
CONCORD — Denny Hamlin came to Charlotte Motor Speedway on Friday as one of NASCAR’s hottest drivers and guaranteed the first pit stall for the All-Star race. Then a blown engine and a band of showers changed the dynamics for the non-points event that pays $1 million to the winner. A few hours after a cloud of smoke trailed Hamlin’s car early in practice on Friday, the unique three-lap qualifying format with a mandatory four-tire pit stop
was rained out, giving Kurt Busch the pole for Saturday’s race simply because he was first in the qualifying draw. “It feels great. It puts us that much closer to a million dollars,” Busch said. “Sometimes it’s better to be lucky than good, and my boat put the best lap down today.” Joey Logano will start on the outside of the front row for the four-segment, 100-lap race. Brad Keselowski will start third, followed by Jamie McMurray, Kyle Busch and David Reutimann.

Magic won’t be intimidated BY JIMMY GOLEN Associated Press
ASSOCIATED PRESS
Kyle Busch holds up his See RACE, 7B trophy after taking the pole.
WALTHAM, Mass. — The original Boston Garden is long gone, and so is the fear in opponents’ eyes when they play the Celtics on their home floor. So don’t expect the Orlando Magic to be too intimidated when they arrive for Games 3 and 4 of the best-of-seven Eastern Conference finals. “We’ve won there before, and there’s no reason we can’t do it again,” forward Rashard Lewis said Friday as the Magic prepared for Game 3. “Boston came to us and beat us twice on our home court, so it’s happened before. Why can’t we do it? Why can’t it happen again?” The Celtics took the first two games in Orlando, stealing the home-court advantage and earning a chance to advance with-
out having to leave town again. A victory at the new Boston Garden tonight would give them a chance to complete the sweep on Monday. But home-court advantage doesn’t mean what it used to for Boston. The Celtics were 24-17 at home this year — tied for the worst of all the playoff teams. It’s the first time the Celtics have had a better record on the road (26-15) than at home since 1974, and just the second time since 1955. Boston was one of just two NBA teams this season that was better on the road than at home. For coach Doc Rivers, it’s more reason to forget about a regular season in which, after beating Orlando on Christmas Day to improve to 23-5, the Celtics spent the next four months as a .500 team.

Bryan will play in State Games From staff reports
Salisbury’s Jenna Bryan, a Hornet soccer player, has been selected to play in the North Carolina State Games for the South squad. She is the first player from Salisbury to ever make the roster for these games. The games will be on June 26-27 at Queens College in Charlotte.
! Trojan baseball keeps rolling Once a struggling .500 team, Northwest Cabarrus continued its late surge with a dramatic 5-4 win against Charlotte Catholic in the third round of the 3A playoffs on Friday. Sophomore Corey Seager pounded a tworun homer in the first inning and blasted a walkoff double to right-center in the seventh. Lefty Rob Bain was the winning pitcher. “Catholic is really athletic and ran down three balls in the outfield that will usually fall,” Northwest coach Joe Hubbard said. “But we played a great game and were able to manufacture some runs when we had chances.” Northwest (21-9) will play East Rowan (262) at Staton Field in the fourth round — a state quarterfinal — in a battle of No. 1 seeds. The teams have already met twice. Northwest won 11-7 over East in an Easter tournament at Fieldcrest Cannon Stadium. East won the rematch 6-2 at Staton Field.
! South Legion postponed Friday night’s American Legion game between South Rowan and Kannapolis at Fieldcrest Cannon Stadium was postponed due to rain. The game was rescheduled for Tuesday, June 8 and will still be played at FCS. Tickets purchased Friday will be honored on June 8. South Rowan will try to open its season at High Point’s Finch Field today at 2 p.m. • The Rowan Legion (0-1) will open its home season tonight when it takes on Stanly County at 7 p.m. at Newman Park. • Mooresville defeated Statesville 11-4 in its season opener on Friday night. Lefty Scottie Williams got the win, working six innings. He gave up two runs on four hits and struck out nine. Catawba signee Chris Dula paced Mooresville’s offense, going 3-for-4 with three runs scored. He had a solo homer and three RBIs. Jake Beaver went 2-for-4 with three RBIs. Billy Nantz was 3-for-4 with two RBIs. Mooresville plays host to Kernersville on Sunday.
! Intimidators lose Despite a 4-0 lead in the fourth inning, the Kannapolis Intimidators allowed the Asheville Tourists to take a comeback 7-6 victory on Friday night. The Intimidators (22-20) jumped out to a 1-0 lead in the third inning as Kevin Dubler reached on an error and scored on a basesloaded hit by Kyle Colligan. But Ian Gac grounded into a double play to end the inning. In the fourth, Nick Ciolli reached on a bunt single and stole second before Jose Vargas hit an RBI-double. He scored on a single by Jesus Villegas, who scored on a double by Rafael Vera. The Intimidators were up 4-0 lead and Justin Collop had been working well, so things looked good for Kannapolis. However, in the bottom of the fourth, the Tourists (15-25) put up two runs on three hits off Collop (2-4) and they added five runs in the fifth for a 7-4 lead. The Intimidators came back with two twoout runs in the eighth, but went down quietly as Sheng-an Kuo worked his second save of the year. Chad Rose (2-2) pitched three scoreless to pick up the win. The Intimidators put up 10 hits for the second straight time, but failed to win for the third time in an attempt to go to four games above .500. They now trail the first-place Hickory Crawdads by four games.

Stoudemire shrugs off the blame
The NBA notebook ... CHICAGO — John Wall believes John Calipari will stay at Kentucky, even if he has a chance to coach LeBron James. At the NBA combine in Chicago, Wall said Friday that it was Calipari’s “dream” to coach Kentucky and “I feel strongly he’s going to stay.” Even if Calipari could coach King James? Wall says Calipari “would like to have another chance in the NBA,” just not this soon. Calipari went 72-112 in two-plus seasons with the New Jersey Nets in the late 1990s and has said he is staying at Kentucky. NBA COMBINE CHICAGO — DeMarcus Cousins understands there are questions about his maturity, his focus and whether he’s even a good teammate. The way he sees it, that’s “ridiculous.” The big center from Kentucky had something to prove at this week’s NBA combine in Chicago. While fellow Wildcat John Wall and Ohio State’s Evan Turner figure to go to Washington and Philadelphia with the top two picks on June 24, the next few spots appear to be up for grabs. The New Jersey Nets select third, and Cousins could be a candidate along with two forwards — Derrick Favors of Georgia Tech and Wesley Johnson from Syracuse. OOPS WASHINGTON — There it was on Facebook for all to see: the Washington Wizards telling the world they will draft John Wall with the No. 1 pick. Oops.

Phoenix. He can opt out of the final year of his contract with the Suns after this season and would like a maximum deal. He was one of the most dominant players in the NBA since the All-Star break, but two games against the Lakers have rekindled debate as to whether he is worth that much money. “I understand. That’s fine, that’s fine,” Stoudemire said. “Last year, this same team with Shaq, we didn’t make the playoffs. You get rid of Shaq and add me and we’re in the Western Conference finals. That alone should tell you what I bring to the team.” Phoenix coach Alvin Gentry said critics should lay off his All-Star forward. “I think you guys are making way, way too much of that,” Gentry said. “We had a lot of guys out of position on certain plays. If you’re telling me because of the statement he made everybody is looking at him more closely then OK, fine. But to say that he’s the guy that’s out of position is not an accurate statement. That’s not true at all.” Gentry was referring to Stoudemire’s statement that Lamar Odom had “a lucky game” with 19 points and 19 rebounds in the series opener. Odom, who had 17 points and 11 boards in Game 2, has caused matchup problems for the Suns.

PHOENIX — Amare Stoudemire is taking a lot of heat for his defense, or lack of it, thus far in the Western Conference finals. Then again, nobody ever confused him with Kevin Garnett as an NBA stopper — and he is playing against the Los Angeles Lakers. The teams returned to practice on Friday after a day off, with the Lakers up 2-0 as the series shifts to Phoenix for Game 3 on Sunday night. Stoudemire indicated defensive strategy, not his individual failings, were to blame for Phoenix’s interior defensive woes. “I’m doing everything the coaching staff is asking me to do, every single thing,” he said after the Suns’ workout, “from fronting the post, to doubling Kobe, to helping out. Those guys are big down there.” Phoenix is trying to become the first team in 47 tries to come back from an 0-2 deficit to win a sevengame series against a Phil Jackson-coached team. Those teams, of course, have been laden with talent, and these Lakers are no exceptions. Steve Nash said the only way for Phoenix to beat the defending NBA champions is with the effort and chemistry that made the Suns such a surprising success this season. “They’re a more talented team than we are,” Nash said. “They’re a more balanced team. It’s probably not a stretch in most people’s minds just to say they’re a better team than we are. So how do we overcome that? That’s just all spirit, fight and belief. We’ve got to rely heavily on those characteristics with this group.” Stoudemire might be playing his final games for

If you want a great deal on tickets ... email me.” The posting was soon taken down. Wizards spokesman Scott Hall says it was “simply the case of an overzealous member of our sales staff acting on his own.” YAO’S BABY HOUSTON — Houston Rockets star Yao Ming is now a father. The 7-foot-6 Yao and his wife, Ye Li, had a baby girl on Friday at a Houston hospital, team spokesman Nelson Luis said. The couple, who married in August 2007, did not announce the baby’s name. She weighed 7 pounds, 6 ounces. “I am very excited about the arrival of our daughter,” Yao said in a statement. “This is a very special moment in our lives and we thank everyone for their kindness and support.” PITTMAN AUSTIN, Texas — Former Texas center Dexter Pittman left the NBA draft combine Friday to be with his family a day after his half-brother was shot and killed in a Houston suburb.

“During the season,” he said before interrupting himself. “I don’t want to go back to that. I will go back to pre-Christmas.” Forward Paul Pierce would also like to forget the regular season, and the Celtics’ playoff run is making that easier. After earning the No. 4 seed in the East and quickly dispatching the Miami Heat in the first round, Boston eliminated LeBron James and the top-seeded Cleveland Cavaliers in the conference semis. Against secondseeded Orlando, the Celtics have twice opened big leads and held on to take a 2-0 advantage. Now they’re back home, where the Celtics are 5-1 so far in the playoffs. “I think our guys are getting comfortable playing at home again,” Rivers said. It doesn’t hurt that they’re playing better defense than they did during the long regular season, when the 2008 champions seemed uninterested. Veteran Rasheed Wallace has become a contributor off the bench. Point guard Rajon Rondo is blossoming into a star at both ends. And Kevin Garnett, who missed last year’s playoffs because of a knee injury, seems to be responding to his restful regular season with the strong play that was a key to the team’s 17th NBA title. To Pierce, that’s a sign that the regular-season struggles at home don’t mean much any more. “Yesterday already happened and tomorrow’s going to come,” he said. “We’ve turned a lot of things around, so hopefully it can continue in the playoffs.” Orlando was one of two teams — Atlanta was the other — to win twice in Boston this year. The Magic also remember coming to town in last year’s playoffs, when they beat Boston twice — including the Celtics’ first-ever loss at home in a seventh game — to advance to the conference finals.

Magic forward Rashard Lewis, left, goes up in front of Boston forward Rasheed Wallace. “Last year, Boston never lost a Game 7 on their home floor. We went in and beat them,” Lewis said. “It can happen.” This year’s problem: The Celtics have never blown a 2-0 lead in a best-of-seven series, and the Magic have never come back after losing the first two games. “Those are daunting numbers, and I think those numbers are maybe good for gamblers and oddsmakers,” Orlando coach Stan Van Gundy said. “But they don’t really mean anything to you. Unless it affects your game plan and how you’re going to play, what do you do with that? What is the implication in terms of how we would play? The answer is: nothing.” And it’s not like there haven’t been bigger comebacks. In the very same building. Just last week. The NHL’s Boston Bruins led Philadelphia 3-0 in their best-of-seven series before the Flyers came back to force a seventh game. Once there, they overcame a three-goal deficit to win 4-3 and advance to the Stanley Cup semifinals. “Those guys on the Flyers were counted out and look what they did,” said Magic guard Jameer Nelson, who’s from the Philadelphia suburbs and went to Saint Joseph’s. “The Flyers believed in themselves and we believe, too. You’ve got to believe.”

East Rowan coach Brian Hightower, right, gets excited as he sends Preston Troutman home after the Mustang senior belted a homer against Mount Pleasant.
EAST
the biggest at-bats of my life.” East was in hot water again when Mount put runners at second and third with one out in the sixth against Johnson. Hightower turned to his flamethrower — Bradley Robbins. He got East out of that jam. He got a strikeout. Then he gloved a hot shot to the box by Brandon Burris.
“Burris’ ball was really hit,” Hightower said. “Fortunately, Robbins is an athlete.” Then East’s lineup came around for the third time, and Troutman, a lefty hitter headed to Appalachian State, was ready to do some damage. Troutman’s natural stroke is to left-center. The book on him is to bust him inside.
As the Appalachian Statebound fireball walked to the plate to start the bottom of the sixth, Hightower reminded him Atwood would try to come inside under his hands. Atwood’s 1-2 pitch was a fastball inside, and Troutman launched it toward the distant scoreboard in right field. Troutman doesn’t hit homers, but this was a nodoubter. “Hey, all I’m trying to do is get on base,” Troutman said after his first blast of the season. “I did put a good swing on it, but if I hit one out, the pitcher’s providing the power.” Tyson said that’s exactly what happened. “Atwood’s got some real pop and was thumping it up there pretty quick,” he said. “Troutman just dropped the bat head on it, and it traveled.” Sapp was next. And as stunned as the young center fielder was by Troutman’s electrifying clout that whipped the old ballpark into a frenzy, he was even more shocked when he nailed a homer of his own. “Preston hit his homer and it’s going pretty crazy, so I’m just trying to calm down and get a base hit,” Sapp said. “But it went to 3-2, and then he left me a fastball up in the zone.” As the ball rocketed toward the trees and Sapp circled the bases, Hightower set a high-

Four East hurlers ered two innings of scoreless relief. It wasn’t without drama. He worked out of a second-inning jam, retired the side in order in the third and set down Mount Pleasant’s first two batters in the fourth. But after yielding a bloop single and a walk, his night was over. “I had to stay focused and trust my catcher,” said Bost, who also credited Troutman. “And the shortstop comes over a lot to calm me down. He makes frequent trips to the mound.” Next up on East’s dance card was lefty Will Johnson, who induced an inning-endJON C.

issued a rare base on balls, a bunt single and a sacrifice in the sixth. There were two runners in scoring position when Bradley Robbins took the wheel and brought the evening in for a safe landing, showing No. 9 hitter Chett Currie a called third strike and snaring Brandon Burris’ blistering grounder. “I came in and was ready to finish it off,” Robbins said. “Nothing that happens changes my mindset.” • It also lit the fuse for East’s sixth-inning heroics, when Troutman and Sapp did their yard work and Nathan Fulbright delivered a run-scoring double. “Everyone’s important,” Hatley said. “We can’t have just pitching or just defense or just timely hitting. Everyone has to do their part.” Including the pitching coach. “Hey,” said East coach Brian Hightower. “If you’re gonna coach a team, you need a guy like Hatley. He was the first one I called when I got the job. Every (pitching) decision we make, he’s my right-hand man. Plus, I don’t have many friends and he seems to like working with me.” At least that’s no secret.

plate, made Atwood work, made him throw a lot of pitches,” Hightower explained. “And our guys will make adjustments. By the third time through, we’ll usually be hitting some balls hard.” Mount Pleasant (17-11) struck first. East starter Thomas Allen has been out with a forearm strain and wasn’t sharp. The Tigers scored in the first on an RBI double by Anthony Allende. East was lucky it didn’t get buried. Allen got a big strikeout to strand runners at second and third in the first inning. Alex Bost relieved Allen in the second and escaped a first-and-third jam. “We were hoping the adrenaline would kick in and Allen would find it, but it just wasn’t there,” Hightower said. “If I had to put a percentage on him, he’s 75 or 80, but not anywhere close to 100.” No one questions the brilliance of East’s bullpen. Bost did his job and passed the baton to lefty Will Johnson, and East somehow survived long enough to get its bats going. Atwood’s no-hitter disappeared on a sizzling double to left-center by Noah Holmes with one out in the fourth.

Will Sapp pumps his fist after he hit the first homer of his season in the sixth inning. With Atwood one strike from getting out of the fourth, Austin delivered a huge hit. He got East even at 1-1 by driving a fastball to the fence in right-center. Pinch-runner Jamey Blalock scored. “He got two strikes on me quick, but then I had a pretty good swing at a fastball,” Austin said. “That was one of
took their turns at misty Staton Field — still-injured starter Thomas Allen and three pumped-up relievers. Each of them wandered in and out of trouble without harming the cause. They were fancy without being schmancy, more a group of laborers than craftsmen. “All I know,” said catcher Luke Thomas, “is they’re all phenomenal. “We’ve got so many options and we know we can depend on any of them in any situation.” • Allen lasted only into the second inning, partly be-
jump record, and the bleachers went crazy all over again. Sapp’s shot ended a heroic effort by Atwood, and Tyson turned to his bullpen. A single by Luke Thomas and a double by Nathan Fulbright tacked on an insurance run. The Tigers got one against Robbins in the seventh, but he ended it with three straight groundballs. Second baseman Justin Morris gobbled up the last one, and the Mustangs started thinking about Northwest Cabarrus. The Trojans will be at Staton on Tuesday.

Ericka Nesbitt (8) helped the Mustangs grab a 5-0 lead after two innings.
Mullis walked and Brittany Eudy drove a two run double to left-center. The final three innings turned into a pitcher’s duel as White reverted to her normal form, shutting down the Vikings. Central relief pitcher Chelsea Hartsell stymied East down the stretch, but the Mustangs’ lead was too much to overcome. A scene of jubilation was evident in the home dugout afterward while some tears flowed from the eyes of the visitors, realizing many of the Vikings had played the last softball game of their career. Central Cabarrus coach Doug Buckwell, obviously dejected after the game, said, “I really hate it and I’m sad for our seniors. The bright spot,

East coach Mike Waddell watches the action. though, is that we have a lot of good, young talent we look forward to bringing up.” As the rain began to fall in the seventh inning, East shortstop Nesbitt made a play
on a foul ball reminiscent of something often seen on SportsCenter’s Top 10 plays. She did a full layout and snagged a ball fouled off by Central first basemen Tori Cragan. “Their shortstop really stood out to me,” said Buckwell. “She is a terrific player and made a great play on that ball.” The Mustangs will play host to Marvin Ridge on Tuesday in the third round of the 3A state playoffs. With a few days off to focus on the Mavericks, and time for White to rest her arm, East looks poised to try and ride the winning momentum deeper into the playoffs. Marvin Ridge was victorious over Mount Pleasant on Thursday to earn the next shot at East. “All I know about them is that they will be the best team that we play that day,” said Waddell.

Bailey, Brown finish in fourth BY BRET STRELOW
bstrelow@salisburypost.com
Bailey finished 14th in the discus as a sophomore and second last year as a junior. “The last week of practice, I made a couple changes,” said Bailey, who emphasized using his legs more. “Then the adrenaline rush and the monkey on my back from coming here for the third time and never getting it. A lot of things piled on together.” Bailey’s best career throw before Friday was 177-9 in a regular-season meet at Mount Pleasant. He came up short of 170 feet at the regional but surpassed 175 on his first attempt at North Carolina A&T. His second throw went 1802, and he topped that on his next try. “As a thrower that’s what you want to do, but it usually doesn’t happen that way because I’ll scratch a lot,” Bailey said. “We had this massive gap between finals and preliminaries. I was peaking at the end of preliminaries, and that gap kind of threw me off.” Bailey’s best throw ranks 29th in the nation this year. The old state-meet record, regardless of classification, was 182-0 from Providence’s Ben Huff in 1993. The Wonders added 19 more points in events involving Lipscomb, who was part of a fourth-place 4x200 team with Damien Washington, Dillon Robinson and Teven Jones. Lipscomb finished third in the 110-meter hurdles (15.21 seconds) and second in the 300 hurdles (39.43). Forestview’s D. Breedlove (39.39) edged him at the line in that event.
GREENSBORO — Angelia Adams, A.L. Brown discus star Tavis Bailey’s young cousin, wandered away from her seat and ducked under a barricade while attempting to deliver a bucket hat to Bailey. A member of East Rowan thrower Nathan Robbins’ family corralled the enthusiastic child, and B a i l e y laughed when ROBBINS R o b b i n s handed him the hat. Bailey’s competition found it equally difficult to give chase Friday. Bailey set an all-classification, state-meet record by throwing the discus 185 feet, 1 inch at the 3A championships. That distance, which is tied for fifth in North Carolina history, edged the school-record effort of 183-9 established by DeMarcus Carter in 1991. “When the disc gets really heavy as you’re throwing it and it pulls you coming out, that’s when you know it’s a good one,” Bailey said. Bailey, who also claimed second in the shot put, joined Jerrod Lipscomb in leading A.L. Brown’s boys to a fourthplace finish with 40 points. Asheville won with 90, and Crest was the runner-up with 63. Bailey won the discus by more than 20 feet over South Brunswick’s Ryan Minor, who Rowan County’s state threw the shot 58-101⁄2 to beat Bailey by more than 6 feet. champions were East’s Evan

Grant cleared 6-6 on his second attempt in the high jump and was the runner-up to Western Harnett’s Joseph Mathews, who bolted off the mat after barely succeeding on his first try at the same height. Mathews
needed three attempts to clear 6-4. Grant’s body went over cleanly on his last attempt at 6-8, but his foot grazed the bar and knocked it over as he landed. “I guess the tip of my foot tipped it on the way down,” said Grant, a senior who placed third last year. “I thought I was over until I looked back and saw it fall. “I was hoping I’d get 6-10 or 7 feet my last time jumping. I guess that’s just how it is.” West’s boys finished eighth overall, with Quinton Phifer (eighth, high jump) joining Barger as an individual scorer. East’s boys were 11th in the team race. Robbins placed fifth in the shot put and seventh in the discus. Andrew May came in 7th in the 300 hurdles.

Braves pitcher Tim Hudson throws in the seventh inning.
Braves win PITTSBURGH — No need to Braves 7 wait for Pirates 0 the ninth inning to win this one. With Tim Hudson giving up only three singles and Jason Heyward rattling PNC Park with line drives, the Atlanta Braves put the Pirates away early and easily. Heyward homered and drove in three runs to support Hudson’s eight dominant innings and the Braves coasted for a change, beating the Pirates 7-0 on Friday night for their fourth consecutive victory. The Braves had won three consecutive games in their final at-bat, including a 10-9 win over Cincinnati on Thursday in which they scored seven runs during the best ninth-inning comeback in franchise history. They have won nine of 11 overall. “There’s nothing better than winning like we did yesterday (Thursday), then winning again,” said manager Bobby Cox, who celebrated his 69th birthday. “It’s kind
of inspiring to win a game like we did (against Cincinnati). It gets you on rolls.” Hudson (5-1) was already on one as he won his fourth in a row this month, allowing a pair of singles by Bobby Crosby and another by Garrett Jones. Hudson hasn’t permitted more than one run in any victory during the streak. The right-hander also hasn’t surrendered an earned run in his last 22 innings in Pittsburgh. “My sinker feels really good, and for me that’s the key,” Hudson said. “Stay down in the zone with it, (get) good action, stay on top of it, (with) good downward tilt. It’s a fun day when I’m able to go out and do that.” Hudson was trying for his 12th career shutout and his first since May 2, 2008, against Cincinnati, or about four months before he had Tommy John elbow reconstructive surgery. Cox pulled him after he threw 109 pitches. “I didn’t think there was any reason to keep him going with that kind of lead,” Cox said. “If he’d had to, he could have gone another.”

He had lost 11 straight decisions since beating Oakland on Aug. 11, 2009, the second-longest dry spell in Orioles history behind Mike Boddicker’s 13-game skid (1987-88). Reds 7, Indians 4 CLEVELAND — Laynce Nix had three hits, including a tiebreaking double in the sixth inning, to lead Cincinnati. Jonny Gomes and Brandon Phillips also homered for the Reds. Bronson Arroyo (4-2) allowed four runs in 62⁄3 innings and won his third straight start. Rangers 2, Cubs 1 ARLINGTON, Texas — Colby Lewis labored through six innings for his first victory in five starts and Nelson Cruz drove in the tiebreaking run for Texas. The AL West-leading Rangers have a five-game winning streak, their longest of the season. Astros 2, Rays 1 HOUSTON — Brett Myers didn’t allow an earned run in seven innings and Houston snapped Tampa Bay’s six-game winning streak. The worst team in the National League beat the best in baseball, handing the Rays just their 12th loss in 42 games. Royals 9, Rockies 2 KANSAS CITY, Mo, — Jose Guillen hit two home runs and drove in three runs for Kansas City. Twins 15, Brewers 3 MINNEAPOLIS — Jason Kubel and Minnesota battered a frustrated Dave Bush for seven first-inning runs.
HOUSTON — Astros ace Roy Oswalt wants out of Houston. General manager Ed Wade said Oswalt’s agent, Bob Garber, contacted owner Drayton McLane earlier this week to make the request. When asked if it was a request or a demand, Wade said that distinction didn’t matter. “Roy’s contract has a notrade clause, not a trade-me clause,” Wade said. “There is no rule that allows a player in his contract status to demand a trade. So demand, request, hold your breath until you turn blue, it’s all the same. It’s acknowledged and noted.” The 32-year-old Oswalt recently said he would be willing to waive his no-trade clause. Wade said he wants to win with Oswalt on the Astros. Houston went into Friday night’s game against Tampa Bay with the worst record in the National League at 14-27. Oswalt has made nine straight quality starts to open the season but is 2-6 with a 2.66 ERA. He has gotten the lowest run support in the league.
INDIANAPOLIS — BCS executive director Bill Hancock wants higher education officials to make the decisions about college football without interference from the U.S. government. Hancock responded to questions posed by Sen. Max Baucus (D-Mont.) and Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) in March. They were seeking information about the BCS, its structure and governance and how television revenue is distributed among schools — particularly those schools not playing in BCS conferences. In a five-page letter and six pages of attachments, Hancock noted that BCS participation is voluntary — apparently in response to the senators’ statement that the BCS “apparently considers itself an ’arrangement”’ in which there is a “lack of transparency.” “While I appreciate your interest, I believe that decisions about college football should be made by university presidents, athletics directors, coaches and conference commissioners rather than by members of Congress,” Hancock wrote. He cited the example of Utah, a Mountain West school that played in the Sugar Bowl following the 2008 season. Without the BCS, Hancock wrote, the Utes likely would have been sent to the less glamorous — and lucrative — Las Vegas Bowl. He said the Las Vegas Bowl payout was $900,000 while the conference got $9 million for participating in the Sugar Bowl.

GULF BREEZE, Fla. — Brett Favre posted a short statement on his website on Friday night confirming he had arthroscopic ankle surgery, possibly clearing the way for the quarterback to return to the Minnesota Vikings next season. Favre’s future has been up in the air since the Vikings lost to New Orleans in the NFC championship game. He had said he would need ankle surgery if he wanted to play in 2010, but there was no word Friday about his playing career. “This is to confirm that I did have a procedure to remove some scar tissue and bone spurs from my ankle which had been bothering me for a period of time,” Favre said on his website. “I appreciate your concerns.” ESPN.com reported Dr. James Andrews operated on Favre’s left ankle at the Andrews Institute in Gulf Breeze, Fla., on Friday morning. • ATLANTA — Atlanta Falcons president Rich McKay says the team wants a new stadium.

Vickers out for season Associated Press
ASSOCIATED PRESS
A crew member pushes tires through the rain in the garage area on Friday.
RACE FROM 1B
Hamlin has won three of the last seven Sprint Cup races and his team finished first in Wednesday’s Pit Crew Challenge to earn the choice of pit stalls. He will start 12th but will be required to go to the back of the field when the race starts because he has to change engines. At least he still gets the coveted first pit box. “This is probably one of the worst situations you could probably have,” Hamlin said. “We didn’t get to practice anything. We don’t have scuffed tires. A lot of guys will probably race scuffed tires because they’re a little bit faster. And we got to start in the back, so it’s like a double, triple, quadruple whammy of blowing the motor this early.” The rain hurt other drivers when qualifying was called. Since it features a smaller field, the starting order was based on the qualifying draw and not the points standings. Instead of starting first, points leader Kevin Harvick will start 13th. He’ll have to make up ground before the final segment, a 10-lap shootout. “The biggest thing is you want to try and be out front once everybody gets single file as soon as you can to try and take advantage of the aero side of it,” said Harvick, who captured this race in 2007. “The year we won, we won from fourth on the restart and passed everybody going through the middle of one and
two on the restart. “I think with 10 laps with as fast as everybody’s cars are going to be and as much grip as you are going to have, I think you are going to want to be leading.” Four-time defending points champion Jimmie Johnson will start seventh and Jeff Gordon eighth. Casey Mears will start ninth in his second straight race in the No. 83 Toyota with Brian Vickers sidelined for the rest of the season with blood clots. Defending champion Tony Stewart, who won last year after starting 15th, will begin from the 11th spot. Dale Earnhardt Jr., who was scheduled to qualify last, will start 18th. Qualifying was to include the 18 drivers who had already secured spots in the field by winning a race in the past year, or by being a past All-Star race winner (Earnhardt) or Cup champion (Bobby Labonte). The other 29 drivers, including Jeff Burton, Carl Edwards, Greg Biffle and Juan Pablo Montoya, will race in Saturday’s preliminary Sprint Showdown. The top two finishers in that 40-lap race get a spot in the All-Star race, and another slot will be determined through a fan vote. NASCAR officials Friday night were still hoping to complete qualifying for the Sprint Showdown. Montoya (188.055 mph) was the fastest and Burton was second after 25 of 29 drivers had completed their laps before the rain began. If they couldn’t finish qualifying, the starting order would

revert to the qualifying draw, giving David Ragan the pole. Ten years after Dale Earnhardt’s victory in the All-Star race and a day before he’s inducted in the first NASCAR Hall of Fame class, many of the drivers will mimic his aggressive style. With no points on the line and a big payday for the winner, drivers are willing to risk a wreck for a victory. There’s an added twist with a mandatory pit stop during the final 10 laps. “I don’t think it will change it that much,” Hamlin said. “I think you’ll basically see the same crazy race you usually come to see.”

who is vocal when he’s unhappy with the team’s performance, was trying to leave the team a year before his contract expired. TONY WILL BE THERE CONCORD— Two-time NASCAR champion Tony Stewart will attend the inaugural Hall of Fame induction ceremony on Sunday. Stewart was one of several active champions under fire for not planning to attend any of the Hall of Fame events. He was testing during the May 11 grand opening, and missed Thursday night’s gala because it was his birthday. Stewart traditionally spends Sunday at the Indianapolis 500 for “bump day. He has changed those plans, and will walk the red carpet before Sunday’s induction ceremony begins. “I’ll be there,” the Indiana native said Friday. “I’m excited about it from the standpoint that I didn’t grow up in the South. I didn’t grow up around NASCAR racing, originally. It’s important for me to be able to go there and learn about the history of our sport.”
CONCORD — It didn’t take Kyle Busch long to become an elite NASCAR driver. That success hasn’t carried over to life as a team owner. Busch’s first year owning two trucks in NASCAR’s third-tier series has included a lost primary sponsorship, a driver leaving for a better job, a growing list of unpaid creditors and a rapid amount of money disappearing from his wallet. “It’s a tough business to be involved with, and unfortunately I picked the perfect get-wrong time to do it,” Busch said Friday. The No. 18 truck Busch sometimes drives himself is without a primary sponsor, and the No. 56 Toyota driven by Tayler Malsam also is scrambling for money. With the costs for running in the Truck Series estimated at several million dollars apiece, much of the funding is coming from Busch himself. “I would say that majority is a fair word. I would say it’s far above majority. It’s pretty much everything,” Busch said. The 25-year-old Busch has already won 18 times in the Sprint Cup, 34 Nationwide races and 17 more in the Truck Series. Armed with money from his career winnings and just before he signed a new deal with Joe Gibbs Racing, Busch announced in December he was becoming an owner. He hoped to field three truck teams, but sponsorship

Limentani also shrugged off an Australian study that suggested drinking the energy drink Red Bull — the company both owns and sponsors Vickers’ team — could contribute to blood clots. Limentani said the report was not conclusive and did not pertain to Vickers’ situation. Vickers bristled at the suggestion that drinking Red Bull might have caused it. “I drink water, too, so if we’re going to speculate, that could be it, too,” Vickers said. Vickers is in his seventh full season in the Sprint Cup Series and coming off his first appearance in the Chase for the championship. He was replaced in the No. 83 Toyota last weekend by Casey Mears, who will also drive the car in Saturday night’s All-Star Race. Frye said the team was still deciding how it will proceed the rest of the season, but indicated Mears could stay in the seat with possible consideration to using a road course specialist at those two races. Vickers vowed to return in 2011. “I do expect to be back in the car next season, and to win the Daytona 500,” he said. “I’m dealing with two emotions: I want nothing more than to be back in the race car. At the same time, it’s not my personality to focus on the negative. It’s not who I am. It’s not who I’ve always been. I’m going to make the most out of this. “This is the cards I’ve been dealt and I can’t change that right now. I’m going to do everything I can to be positive through this.”

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — The former owners of Kentucky Speedway have dropped their antitrust lawsuit against NASCAR. Attorneys for the former ownership group decided not to appeal their case to the U.S. Supreme Court. Wednesday was the deadline to mail an appeal request to the court. Both the U.S. District Court and the U.S. Court of Appeals rejected claims by the former owners that NASCAR and International Speedway Corporation violated federal antitrust laws by working with other tracks to keep the 1.5-mile tri-oval in northern Kentucky from getting a coveted Sprint Cup race.

Harvick close to RCR deal The NASCAR notebook ... CHARLOTTE — Richard Childress Racing has scheduled a Saturday news conference amid reports Kevin Harvick has signed a contract extension to stay with the team. Harvick declined Friday to address a report in The Charlotte Observer, which citing sources, said Harvick has agreed to an extension. “I don’t have anything new to report today,” Harvick said. “As soon as we get something to report, we’ll go ahead and do that.” A team spokesman confirmed that RCR has blocked time Saturday at Charlotte Motor Speedway for a news conference. Harvick scolded the media last month for reporting on his contract situation with the aid of anonymous sources. “If you’re going to quote a source, quote their name,” he vented. “If they’re too chicken to give their name, don’t put it in the paper.” He and RCR have been fighting the issue for some time, and team owner Childress was forced several times last season to issue news releases that addressed sourced stories regarding their partnership. Childress angrily denied several times that Harvick,

CONCORD — Brian Vickers will miss the remainder of the NASCAR season because of blood clots in his lungs and left leg. Vickers was hospitalized two nights last week after feeling chest pains during a visit to Washington, D.C. Testing revealed the clots, and Vickers missed last weekend’s race at Dover. Vickers returned to North Carolina following his release from the hospital Friday night, but said a recurrence of chest pains sent him back to the hospital the next day. He spent another two nights hospitalized, and the decision to sit out the remainder of the season to receive treatment was made shortly after. “This is what I love to do, this is my life,” Vickers said Friday at Charlotte Motor Speedway, where he made his first public appearance since his ordeal began last Wednesday. “This is what I love to do, and I fully intend on doing it again.” The 26-year-old Vickers is being treated for a pulmonary embolism with the blood thinner Coumadin, and his physician couldn’t clear him to race because of the dangers of the driver being injured in a crash. “It is not advisable for him to race while he’s on blood thinners,” said Dr. Steven Limentani of Carolina Hematology Oncology. Vickers, seated between Limentani and Red Bull Racing general manager Jay Frye, then quickly lightened the mood. “I can actually race on blood thinners, I just can’t crash,” he smiled. “So I told them if I promise I won’t crash, will they let me race? “The answer was ’No.’ In my situation, let’s just say the minimum was three months and the recommended is six months — for me to come back with eight races left in the year and to run the risk of having this happen again just to cut it short at three months, I don’t think the reward really outweighs the risk. We’re going to go the full stay here and be committed to resolving the issue for the rest of my life.” Limentani, who treated NASCAR team owner Rick Hendrick when he battled leukemia, said the clots in Vickers’ lungs were “relatively small,” but gave the driver pains similar to being punched in the ribs every time he took a breath. The doctor said tests to determine what caused the clots will take a “number of weeks” to come back, and its possible they
issues limited him to two. Then just before the season opening race at Daytona, Miccosukee Resort and Gaming in Florida dropped out as primary sponsor of the No. 18 Toyota after the Indian tribe got a new leader. Busch has lined up some companies for single-race sponsorships and other smaller deals, but it hasn’t been nearly enough to cover the costs, even as Busch’s No. 18 team sits first in the owner’s standings. “Our trucks really run well, we’re fast,” Busch said. It just hasn’t paid the bills. The Charlotte Observer reported nearly a dozen companies involved in the construction of Busch’s race headquarters in Mooresville, have filed liens or intend to file liens because they are collectively owed about $1 million Earlier this week, Brian Ickler, who was driving the No. 18 truck when Busch could not due to Sprint Cup conflicts, took a job driving a car for Roush Fenway Racing in the Nationwide Series. Busch will use Johnny Benson, who he had hoped to drive the scrapped third car he had planned, in Ickler’s place in two weeks at Texas. “I have no reason to hold Brian Ickler back. It’s all for his best interest,” Busch said. “I feel like I’ve done what I’ve needed to do to help him move up, so hopefully he can make a name for himself and a place for himself over there at Roush and do a good job.”
Friday the matter was closed and he was optimistic that it opens the door for new owners Speedway Motorsports Inc. to finally bring a Cup race to the track. “If it means the end of that lawsuit, that’s great,” said Eddie Gossage, president of SMIowned Texas Motor Speedway. “I don’t know what that means for Kentucky, but I sure know that’s a great place where NASCAR should be racing.” SMI chairman Bruton Smith said last year he was prepared to move a race from one of his other facilities to Kentucky should the lawsuit be resolved. Now that he can move forward and petition NASCAR for a date at Kentucky, Gossage said his boss has not discussed his plans.

STATE CHAMPS!
BRET STRELOW/SALISBURY POST
East Rowan’s Evan Webb was the only pole-vault participant in the 3A track meet in Greensboro to clear 14 feet. He’s the first Mustang winner since Danny Misenheimer in 2000.
East’s Webb wins title in pole vault BY BRET STRELOW
bstrelow@salisburypost.com
GREENSBORO — East Rowan coach Rick Roseman received a text message last weekend from senior Evan Webb, who inquired about buying his track jersey once the season ended. Webb’s performance at the 3A state meet Friday created a different fate for the red top with blue and white lettering.
East retires the jerseys of state champions, and Webb joined the list by winning the pole vault at North Carolina A&T. He was the only competitor to clear 14 feet in a difficult headwind. “It’s really special, and I’m glad I could bring a state championship back to East Rowan,” Webb said. “I don’t get to keep my jersey, though, so I’m kind of mad about that, but it’s worth it.”
More track
Webb became the first East male to cap Bailey leads ture a state Wonders to track title fourth, 5B since 2000, when Danny Misenheimer won the shot put. Webb entered the state meet as the No. 6 seed after clearing 13-0 at the Midwest Regional. He missed on his
first two attempts at 13-6 on Friday. “I felt about this tall and I was scared,” Webb said while holding his index finger and thumb about an inch apart. “I lost every bit of confidence in myself until coach (Eric Morell) said, ‘Look, clear this and I’ve got a nice little carbon ESSX (pole) over here for you to jump on.” Webb cleared 13-6 to stay alive and then vaulted for the
first time with a carbon ESSX pole. He was a co-finalist along with Eastern Alamance’s Matt Cobb, and Webb succeeded on his first try at 140. Cobb missed on all three attempts. “This is what I’ve worked for since the first day of school, spending three hours a day in the weight room, doing workouts on the weekend by myself,” Webb said. “This
is the way I wanted to end it.” That ending limited Webb’s purchasing power, but a retired jersey in East’s trophy case isn’t a bad alternative. “To be honest, I want to cry right now,” Webb said. “It’s the last time I’m ever going to get to wear this uniform, and it’s tough. Coach Morell has helped me so much, and everybody up there (in the stands) has been really supportive.”

GREENSBORO — A fast start helped West Rowan’s Daishion Barger avoid pitfalls that have plagued him in previous state finals. Barger, in his third season as a title contender, collected the first championship of his prep career by winning the 110-meter hurdles at the 3A state meet Friday.
He finished in 14.39 seconds, 0.76 ahead of Tuscola’s Michael Stroupe. A.L. Brown’s Jerrod Lipscomb took third. “I felt relief, like, ‘Yeah, I got it,’ ” Barger said. “Basically what I was thinking about was that I finally got it and brought it all together.” Barger scored in four events. He was seventh in the 200 and part of a third-place 4x200 team with Brandon Ijames, Trey Mashore and Er-

She surged past Concord’s Juanita Leto just shy of the finish line and crossed with a time of 44.10 seconds. Leto was second at 44.72.
“I was pretty confident,” Holloway said. “If you have heart, you can do anything.

The Singled Out Ministry of First Baptist Church recently staged ‘Star Search Comes to Mayberry.’ Here, Pete Bogle as Barney Fife manhandles Ernest T. Bass while Andy Taylor (Tim Cooper) and the Darlings (Rodney Burns, Graham Carlton, Rick McGraw and Mark Parchment) look on. The show raised money for community hunger projects and helps kick off a study series based on ‘The Andy Griffith Show.’

ayberry was abuzz with the news. The “Star Search” judges all the way from California had come to this sleepy little Carolina crossroads to look for the next Big Star on the Hollywood horizon. The town band had polished its instruments. Gomer, Goober and Floyd had been deputized to give them a police escort into town. Mayor Pike gave them a key to the city. Everybody was ready but Barney Fife, who couldn’t find his harmonica. That was the premise behind “Star Search Comes to Mayberry,” a production of the Singled Out ministry of Salisbury’s First Baptist Church. This dinner theatre/talent show was presented Saturday, May 15, to a standing room only crowd. Starting with a supper straight from the menu at the Bluebird Diner, chef Ed Buckley from the Thomas Street Tavern in Charlotte and his helpers, Gerald Miller and Tom Green, served pork chop sandwiches and all the fixin’s including Aunt Bee’s Apple Pie as almost two dozen singles and some of their friends put on this rollickAunt Bee (Sarah Proctor) made an appearance at the program. ing homespun homily to downtown Dixie.

ears ago, I ran across a piece written by Garrison Keillor describing Methodists. He wrote of everything from their devotion to God to their fondness for macaroni and cheese. In doing so, he reminded me of my own spiritual journey into the Methodist Church some 15 years ago. I had grown up in Faith in what is now Shiloh Reformed Church, KENT and remained BERNHARDT there well into my 30s. Marriage, family, and simple geography necessitated a change in my church affiliation, and I became a member of the United Methodist Church. In the ensuing 15 years, I have observed and learned much about Methodists, and I am happy to report that they are indeed a kind and devoted people, and that they really do possess a fondness for macaroni and cheese. I can honestly say that I feel welcome and challenged in the Methodist church, and I think I have a relatively good understanding of the basics of the Methodist beliefs. Here is a little of what I have learned: Methodists believe that no form of worship or church meeting should begin until coffee has been served. Fortunately, you usually don’t have to travel far in a Methodist Church to find a pot of coffee somewhere. Large Methodist gatherings must contain a covered dish dinner. It’s in the church bylaws. And large gatherings are a welcome event, mainly because Methodists are among the best cooks on the earth. Methodists believe that air conditioning is no longer a sin. They do believe, however, that you get into a gray area if it is turned on too early on a warm Sunday morning. One should never feel too comfortable. It’s part of the atonement for our sins. Methodists believe that polite applause is now an acceptable means of expressing approval of a pleasant musical performance during a church service, though simply smiling and nodding your head is still preferred by many members. Methodists believe that the spreading of church gossip is unacceptable and should be frowned upon as often as possible. Methodists believe that, during the passing of the peace, worshippers should venture no more than two rows from their assigned seats. Also, the passing of the peace is to end promptly on the organist's music cue. No exceptions. Methodists believe that the Bible is the total and complete word of God. Some of the more liberal Methodists, however, believe that early episodes of Star Trek offer subtle divine insight as well. Unlike Baptists, Methodists believe that dancing is acceptable under most circumstances. Unfortunately, most do not do it well. Methodist choirs believe in diligent practice on Wednesday nights, and group prayer just before entering the sanctuary on Sunday, just in case the diligent practice fails to do the job. If you are sick, Methodists will pray for you and shower your family with wonderful home cooked food, which your family will eat in front of you until you are well enough to throw away the leftovers and scrub and return the casserole dishes yourself. And finally, Methodists believe that every effort should be made to attend services regularly, and that there is no real reason to miss church on Sunday, even on the west coast where NFL games and NASCAR events start earlier. I believe these to be the basics of our faith, but remember, I’ve only been a Methodist for 15 years, so I’m still learning. Kent Bernhardt lives in Faith.

Acts 2 The Holy Spirit Comes at Pentecost 1When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place. 2Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting. 3They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them. 4All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues[a] as the Spirit enabled them. 5Now there were staying in Jerusalem God-fearing Jews from every nation under heaven. 6When they heard this sound, a crowd came together in bewilderment, because each one heard them speaking in his own language. 7Utterly amazed, they asked: "Are not all these men who are speaking Galileans? 8Then how is it that each of us hears them in his own native language? 9Parthians, Medes and Elamites; residents of Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, 10Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya near Cyrene; visitors from Rome 11 (both Jews and converts to Judaism); Cretans and Arabs-we hear them declaring the wonders of God in our own tongues!" 12Amazed and perplexed, they asked one another, "What does this mean?" 13Some, however, made fun of them and said, "They have had too much wine.[b]" Peter Addresses the Crowd 14Then Peter stood up with the Eleven, raised his voice and addressed the crowd: "Fellow Jews and all of you who live in Jerusalem, let me explain this to you; listen carefully to what I say. 15These men are not drunk, as you suppose. It's only nine in the morning! 16No, this is what was spoken by the prophet Joel: 17" 'In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams. 18Even on my servants, both men and women, I will pour out my Spirit in those days, Acts 2 New International Version and they will prophesy. 19I will show wonders in the heaven above and signs on the earth below, blood and fire and billows of smoke. 20The sun will be turned to darkness and the moon to blood before the coming of the great and glorious day of the Lord. 21And everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.'[c] 22"Men of Israel, listen to this: Jesus of Nazareth was a man accredited by God to you by miracles, wonders and signs, which God did among you through him, as you yourselves know. 23This man was handed over to you by God's set purpose and foreknowledge; and you, with the help of wicked men,[d] put him to death by nailing him to the cross. 24But God raised him from the dead, freeing him from the agony of death, because it was impossible for death to keep its hold on him. 25David said about him: " 'I saw the Lord always before me. Because he is at my right hand, I will not be shaken. 26Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices; my body also will live in hope, 27because you will not abandon me to the grave, nor will you let your Holy One see decay. 28You have made known to me the paths of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence.'[e] 29"Brothers, I can tell you confidently that the patriarch David died and was buried, and his tomb is here to this day. 30But he was a prophet and knew that God had promised him on oath that he would place one of his descendants on his throne. 31Seeing what was ahead, he spoke of the resurrection of the Christ,[f] that he was not abandoned to the grave, nor did his body see decay. 32God has raised this Jesus to life, and we are all witnesses of the fact. 33Exalted to the right hand of God, he has

e are quickly approaching the end of the school year and I have to confess that I am tired and ready for it to end. I feel pressed to get papers graded. We still have some curriculum to squeeze into these students’ DOUG brains, CREAMER which are shutting down for the summer. It is really beginning to feel like crunch time. When I get to feeling this tired physically and emotionally, I have to admit that I feel drained spiritually too. I still read my Bible and pray, but the passion level has dropped. Thoughts of the beach, reading a good book, and catching up with good friends are the life preservers that help me make it to the end of the school year. Last Sunday I received a very unexpected life preserver. For various reasons I decided to visit a church I had heard good things about. I was curious about why I was hearing such good reports. I arrived with an open mind and heart and actually a little excited about having the opportunity to attend the service. When the music cranked

up, I began to sense the presence of the Lord. I pressed in because I was so hungry to be touched and refreshed by God. Sometime in the middle of the worship I felt the presence of the Lord in a profound way. I felt like we were standing on the edge of a lake with an open invitation to jump in. In my spirit I felt myself jump in and as I did, my soul was washed in his peace. I felt the joy of the Lord penetrating my heart and I felt refreshed in a way that I haven’t in quite a while. It was a beautiful gift from God. Why do we doubt God’s goodness? Some people believe that the God of the Old Testament is harsh. I think we need to read deeper and between the lines to understand God’s true character. Time and time again the people rebelled against God and worshiped idols. God didn’t give up on the people. He kept sending prophets or allowing foreign kings to oppress the people so they would return to the Lord in faith. When they repented, he was always there to rescue them. If you really think about it, God is very loving, compassionate, and long-suffering even in the Old Testament. God is good and blessed his people far beyond what they could imagine. He gave them the riches of Egypt and the Promised Land. The road of faith is never easy because God wants to challenge us to grow and mature, but that does not diminish his goodness and mercy. Jesus taught us about God’s love through parables, then laid
down his life to demonstrate his love.. I believe God wants us to experience his goodness, but we doubt his love and feel unworthy of his blessings. God wants to give us gifts but we won’t open the package and receive them. We need to understand that Jesus paid the price for all we have done and will do wrong, so we can be in God’s presence and receive his goodness and love. We serve a God who expects us to grow, mature, and raise the standards in our lives, but we also serve a God who loves us beyond what we can image and who desires to bless us with his goodness. I want to encourage you to believe that God loves you and that he is a good God. Some-
times when we are going through life’s struggles it is hard to believe that God is good, but those struggles can draw us closer to God. When you draw near to God we will experience His love and goodness. I believe that God wants to refresh us when we are tired or feeling overwhelmed. I believe God wants to meet us right where we are but we have to have open hearts and a hunger for His presence. I really want to encourage you to spend some time in his presence so you will be refreshed and you will experience the goodness of God. Doug Creamer’s website is www.dougcreamer.com.

BUSINESS HIGHLIGHTS The Dow Jones industrial average rose 125 points to 10,193.39 after falling below 10,000 in morning trading.. The volatility follows “correction” mode, a drop of more than 10 percent from 2010 highs set last month. European Union finance ministers backed tougher sanctions to prevent them running up too much debt in the hopes of winning back market confidence and getting a handle on the debt crisis that is threatening the euro. The European Union’s president Herman Van Rompuy said talks showed that “it was very clear that there was a broad consensus on the principle of having sanctions” — both financial and political. General Motors Co.’s European unit continued to struggle with high costs and a declining market. CEO Ed Whitacre got the last big piece of his plan to resurrect GM — a $1.25 billion restructuring deal with its European union, designed to stop Adam Opel GmbH from being a drain on GM profits. The cuts may not go deep enough for Opel to thrive in a competitive European market. Toyota Motor Corp. is recalling about 3,800 Lexus LS sedans in
the U.S. to fix a problem with the vehicle’s steering system following a similar recall in Japan. The company said the recall affects some 2009 and 2010 LS 460 and LS 600h sedans. Unemployment rates fell in a majority of states last month as improved economic conditions spurred hiring. The Labor Department said 34 states and the District of Columbia reported their jobless rates fell in April. Six states reported higher rates, while 10 saw unemployment hold steady. South Carolina’s rate fell to 11.6 percent in April, from 12.2 percent in March, marking the largest monthly drop of any state. Chrysler Group LLC gave a big boost to the battered Michigan economy when it announced plans to add about 1,100 workers to help build the new Jeep Grand Cherokee. The company made the announcement at a Detroit factory as it celebrated the start of Grand Cherokee production. Chrysler said it expects strong sales of the new sport utility vehicle, which is due in showrooms next month. Almost all the workers will be new hires.

Do you recognize the risk? BY PHILLIP ALDER
United Feature Syndicate
When declarer does not recognize the danger to his contract, he will often fall to defeat. But when he sees the risk, he will usually find a solution -- if there is one. What is the danger in this four-heart contract after West leads the spade queen? How can declarer survive? West opened with a weak two-bid. North made a takeout double, then converted South's three-club advance to three diamonds. In this way, he kept hearts in the picture and showed extra values. South went from three diamonds to three hearts, and North raised, playing his partner for six or seven high-card points (the standard tactic for the intervenor after an opposing preemptive opening). Given that East has the spade ace (West would not lead a spade from the A-Q-J), South has three top losers: two spades and one club. So, he has to assume that West holds the heart king. That, though, is not the end of the story. Suppose declarer calls for the spade king at the first trick, wondering if West is being sneaky. East takes his ace, cashes the club ace, and returns his second spade. When West wins that trick and leads another spade, it promotes a trump trick for the defense. Either East overruffs the dummy or West scores his king. If South sees the danger, he will play low from the dummy
at trick one. Give West that trick, East the next spade and the top club, but West has no entry for the lethal third-spade play. Try to consider the various scenarios based on your play at trick one. Then the danger should become apparent.
James: No shirt, no regrets after ‘Idol’ run LOS ANGELES (AP) — Casey James wants to appeal to more than the opposite sex in his post-“American Idol” music career, despite what judge Kara DioGuardi (KEHR’-uh dee-oh-GWAR’dee) has to say. During a teleconference Friday, the tall, sweet-smiling Texan said he likes to think his appeal goes beyond what DioGuardi has described as his core demographic of women and girls. James says he doesn’t regret taking his shirt off at DioGuardi’s request during his first tryout with the judges.
Dear Dr. Gott: I am a 44year-old female with migraines. I am otherwise healthy with no other medical problems, but I’m about 30 pounds overweight. I was diagnosed with migraines at age 12 and was put on medication, but because of the side effects, my parents chose to take me off it, and until recently, I DR. PETER haven’t had any trouble. GOTT After smoking for 15 years, I finally quit when my mother passed away from lung cancer. Almost immediately after quitting smoking, my migraines came back and were so bad that I couldn’t function. With three active children, this was not an option for me, so I started smoking again, and the headaches went away. I am scared of what my future holds if I continue to smoke, and I truly want to quit. I went to my family doctor and a neurologist. I have tried several different medications, such as antidepressants, antiseizures and migraine-specific drugs, which didn’t work. I was on a blood-pressure medication briefly that worked well for the headaches, but after a while it caused my blood pressure to drop too much, and I ended up in the hospital being monitored. I don’t know what the connection is with smoking and
migraines, but I’m guessing it involves stress. Can you offer any suggestions on what to do so that my children don’t grow up without a mother? I don’t take any medicines except an occasional over-the-counter ibuprofen or naproxen for minor aches and pains. Dear Reader: I am not aware of any connection between smoking and migraines. However, in your instance, this is clearly the case. I cannot recommend you continue smoking in order to control the headaches. I can, however, try to offer you some advice and recommendations that you may not have tried. First, migraines are a type of headache that can be disabling when they occur. They typically cause severe one-sided head pain, may present with a visual aura and cause sensitivity to light and/or sound. Vomiting and nausea are also common symptoms. Each sufferer usually has specific triggers that, when a person is exposed to them, can result in a migraine. Triggers can include hunger, fatigue, hormonal changes, certain medications, stress, head trauma, changes in environment, sensory stimuli (such as bright lights or unusual smells) and certain foods, especially those with preservatives (nitrates), MSG or aged cheeses and wines. If possible, retreat to a quiet, comfortable place at the first sign of a migraine. Turn off the lights, apply heat or ice to your head and
neck, and gently massage the painful areas. For some, taking an aspirin or other OTC pain reliever with a caffeinated beverage such as a soda or coffee can boost the pain-relieving effects of the medication. Too much caffeine, however, may worsen the pain or lead to a withdrawal headache when the caffeine intake is stopped. Typical prescription medications include antidepressants, antiseizure drugs and migraine-specific medications such as those you have tried. For some people, certain blood-pressure medications and other cardiovascular drugs may also be beneficial. However, because you have tried this without success, I recommend one of the following alternative treatments. Be sure that you have physician approval first because not all these treatments may be appropriate for your case. Acupuncture may provide positive results, even though it is not routinely recommended because scientific studies have failed to show strong beneficial evidence. Because you have taken the conservative, modern-medicine route, now may be the time to try this ancient therapy. Biofeedback is a relaxation technique that utilizes special equipment to monitor and control certain physical responses. By understanding the body’s response to certain stimuli such as tension, a person may be able to learn how to control
and alter those responses. The herbs feverfew and butterbur have shown some positive results in preventing or reducing the severity of migraines. High doses of vitamin B2 may also act as a preventive. Still others have had success with coenzyme Q10. Finally, some migraine sufferers have had success with cervical manipulation; however, there is no scientific proof that chiropractic or spinal manipulation will help migraines. In the meantime, you should quit smoking. Substitute over-the-counter nicotine patches or gum to reduce the severity of your migraine symptoms during this stressful period. Dr. Peter H. Gott is a retired physician and the author of several books.

FOR THE RECORD HOMEOWNERSHIP
Throughout the housing downturn, the American dream of homeownership has remained. The most recent survey indicates 65 percent of Americans would still prefer to own a home rather than rent. Housing construction nationally rose to the highest level in 16 months in March. The increase was based largely on a surge in the South, where construction activity jumped 18 percent, the most significant increase in 10 months. After a record low in February, sales of new homes surged 27 percent in March, exceeding expectations as better weather and government incentives boosted sales. While the expired homebuyer tax credits did help 1.8 million people buy homes, 65 percent of survey respondents say the end of tax credits won’t reduce their personal interest in buying a home.
ECONOMY
The economy grew 3.2 percent in the first quarter, marking the third consecutive quarter of growth and confirm-
ing economists’ projections that the recession ended in the middle of 2009. Economists have long warned the service industry would have to catch up with the manufacturing sector for the economy to recover. In February, the service industry grew at its fastest pace in more than two years. Seven of North Carolina’s 11 economic sectors are forecast to see increases during 2010. Construction is
FOR THE RECORD
The Real Facts of N.C. Real Estate Issue 9, May/June 2010 expected to see the strongest growth, with a projected increase of 7.2 percent. Americans’ confidence in the economy rose in April to its highest level since the financial crisis escalated in September 2008.
FORECLOSURE FACTS
N.C. homeowners facing foreclosure will now be given more time, thanks to a new regulation that halts foreclosure actions once a homeowner asks for a loan modification. In addition, mortgage servicers are
now required to respond clearly and promptly when asked about mortgage assistance. North Carolina will receive $159 million as part of a federal aid package designed to fight foreclosures in states plagued by high unemployment. This allocation will go to the N.C. Housing Finance Agency, whose mission is to provide affordable housing options to residents. The share of homeowners
behind on their mortgages fell in the first quarter of 2010, the first drop in four years and a possible sign that the foreclosure crisis has peaked. The portion of mortgages that were
delinquent 30 days or more fell to 6.57 percent from 6.60 percent in the last three months of 2009. Though modest, it is the first decline in the delinquency rate since early 2006.
