Talk of Social Security on hold ‘scaring a lot of older folks’ BY MARK WINEKA mwineka@salisburypost.com

SALISBURY — As he finished his spaghetti at the “Lunch and More” meal site Friday at John Calvin Presbyterian Church, 76-year-old Philip Kepley griped that leaders in Washington sometimes operate with a third-grade mentality. “Plain old politics,” he said. “... It’s a problem they created and one they can fix. They made a mess, and I think they’ll straighten it out — to

some degree.” Kepley doesn’t buy into President Obama’s warning earlier this week that come Aug. 3, without an increase in the country’s debt ceiling, KEPLEY Social Security recipients may not be getting their monthly benefits. It’s a matter of priorities, Kepley said, and if push comes to shove,

making sure Social Security recipients are covered no matter what happens to the debt ceiling will be a top priority. In that way, Obama’s using Social Security as a scare tactic, he says. “It’s not an August issue for me,” Kepley added, “but I’d hate to lose that part (of his retirement income). ... Social Security will have to have modifications over the long term.” Seniors’ reactions to the Obama statement that Social Security checks may not go out next month

range from outright fear to disgust that older citizens — and children — are again being used for political leverage. More than 52.5 million Americans receive Social Security benefits as retired workers, disabled workers, widows, widowers, spouses and children. Within 13 Rowan County zip codes, there were almost 24,000 beneficiaries at the end of 2009, translating to $25.4 million a month coming to citizens through Social Security (see chart on Page 2A).

Those numbers are low because they do not include Rowan Countians who live, for example, in Kannapolis and Mooresville zip codes. “There are many people (for whom) it would mean disaster, even to miss a check or for it to be two weeks late,” said Jo Kearns, president of the local AARP chapter and senior move manager for Smart Choice Senior Transitions. “It’s scaring a lot of older folks

Hair stylists give up tips if people bring in food for Rowan Helping Ministries BY EMILY FORD

Jeannie Yost has challenged other beauty salons to accept donations for Rowan Helping Ministries.

eford@salisburypost.com

ALISBURY — Stylists at a local hair salon are giving up their tips this month and asking clients to donate food for Rowan Helping Ministries instead. Four stylists at Just Hair on Arlington Street, formerly Loflin’s, have issued a friendly challenge to all Rowan County beauty salons to do the same. “Just think, if all the hair dressers do this and every client they have, they’ll never be out of food in the summertime,” Carol Arnold said. Arnold came up with the idea of accepting soup and pasta in lieu of tips last week when she heard the food pantry was down to a one-day supply of many staples. July is the slowest month for food donations at the pantry, which provides food to 85 families a day. Arnold said she worried kids who are already going without the breakfast and lunch they usually eat at school also are finding bare cupboards at home. In less than a week, clients at Just Hair donated a large pile of green beans, peanut

butter and macaroni and cheese, as well as fresh produce. “Our clients are very generous,” Arnold said. Stylist Jeannie Yost decided Just Hair should challenge other salons to forgo tips and collect food donations. Yost called the Post to issue the challenge. “If even one other salon does it, they will get twice as much food,” she said. Challenges are a great way to encourage donations because they make giving fun, said Kyna Foster, executive director for Rowan Helping Ministries. “I think it’s a terrific idea,” Foster said. “I am always amazed at how creative our

Every day at Rowan Helping Ministries: • 85 families take home food from the pantry • 150 to 180 people eat lunch at the soup kitchen • 40 to 45 people sleep in the overnight shelter, up from 29 people last summer • 1 child (at least) sleeps in the overnight shelter. The shelter has not had a night without children since July 2010.

community is in trying to figure out ways to help others.” The community has responded to RHM’s plea for more food, and the pantry shelves are once again full, Foster said. But with nagging unemployment and foreclosures on the rise, it won’t take long for the agency to use up that surplus. “This is the time of year when demand

Where are the hottest jobs? Look to community colleges to see which courses are filling up the fastest to supply employers’ needs RALEIGH (AP) — Tracking computer crime is gaining traction in Winston-Salem. Learning to develop video games is peaking in Goldsboro. And workers ready to handle high-voltage electrical equipment are needed most everywhere. North Carolina’s community college system is one indicator of which jobs right now are hot, and which are not. The 58-campus system is constantly developing courses that provide the skills that local employers want, from nursing to pastry arts, and dropping others where job prospects are wanting. On Friday, the board of the country’s third-largest community college system approved 10 associate degree programs that feasibility studies found have jobs waiting for graduates. “We have the ability to start up programs and close programs based on our workforce needs,” chief academic officer Sharon Morrissey said. Colleges get permission to “start the program knowing that there will be jobs for people who graduate.” About half of the community college system’s more than 850,000 students are starting a track that will let them complete an associate degree and then go on to a university. About 300,000 students are looking for a certificate or degree that will prove they’re prepared for a particular job. Associate degrees in health care have long been hot, along with law enforcement training. But demands of local economies mean other programs come and go. About two dozen degree programs were cut last year, according to a report prepared for state lawmakers. So when the real estate market in the Asheville area collapsed, so did the local community college’s offering of a real estate appraisal degree. More than 50 programs were started last year, including the first for training bilingual interpreters who work around doctors and hospitals. Students in a cybercrime technology program at Forsyth Technical Community College will have about two dozen private security jobs available when they graduate.

SALISBURY — A Salisbury man was arrested Thursday after being tased three times by police. According to the Salisbury Police report, Nathaniel Lemuel Setzer, 27, assaulted his wife, broke into a nearby home and resisted arrest from officers. The report said Setzer arrived at the 100 block of East 11th Street in a black SUV. Setzer was angered when he dropped his cellphone while getting out of his car. He punched the driver of the SUV in the face. Setzer then walked to a vehicle parked behind the SUV, and punched a passenger in that car before going to another nearby vehicle, where he started hitting and vandalizing the car’s hood. The report said Setzer appeared to be in a drug-related state. According to the report, the assaulted passengers then beat Setzer with a chain on East 11th Street. Those passengers were not at the scene when officers arrived. Angela Michele Goodman, Setzer’s wife, 129 E. 11th St., initially reported Setzer to police for assaulting her. When Salisbury Police arrived, Goodman and Setzer’s sister, Bonnie Rice, approached police and said Setzer was acting “out of his mind.” As authorities spoke to the relatives, they heard glass breaking from a nearby abandoned home. According to the report, Setzer jumped through a window, at 117 East 11th St., while fleeing police. Three Salisbury Police officers caught up with Setzer and used a Taser on him. Setzer rolled over, pulled the electric probes from his chest and began fighting the officers. He was tased again by police, but Setzer again pulled the barbs from his chest. Authorities then tased Setzer a final time and were able to handcuff him. Setzer was taken to Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center for injuries from the assault by bystanders. Salisbury Police said Setzer is expected to be charged with assault, resisting, obstructing and delaying an officer and attempted burglary.

and, I think, unnecessarily.” Carolyn Osian, 70, receives her Social Security benefits every second Wednesday of the month. She planned to visit her credit union Friday to warn them that some automatic drafts (mostly for insurance) won’t be covered if she doesn’t receive her Social Security in August. “It does frighten me,” Osian said, and she doesn’t want to be a burden on her children, who are trying to support their own families. “It’s the only income I have,” Osian said, “and I don’t want to fall back on them.” She has been watching much of the debt-ceiling debate in Washington over her C-Span channels. Eileen Hanson-Kelly and her husband have two Social Security checks coming to their household. “In our experience — and it’s true around the country — we spend every bit of that money every month,” Hanson-Kelly said. She described Republican lawmakers as playing Russian roulette with seniors — “and when they do that, they run a big risk.” “I think it’s very risky to put seniors’ livelihoods in jeopardy,” she added. “I’m worried about them playing around with the debt ceiling as if it can be fixed in one stroke.” The debt crisis is a longterm thing and the notion that the country faces a deadline now reflects how inflexible Republican lawmakers are, Hanson-Kelly said. A longterm fix, she added, has to address loopholes and subsidies that allow major corporations such as General Electric and wealthy Americans not to pay taxes, or their fair share of taxes. “I’m very worried about this because if they don’t come to an agreement soon, it will have a disastrous effect on the whole economy, not just seniors,” Hanson-Kelly said. “The fragile recovery we’re in will come apart.” Jerry Shelby, 69, said if the country had allowed the Bush tax cuts to expire and had not tried to fund two wars without a tax increase, “we wouldn’t be in this problem.” “I hope Obama doesn’t

cave, but I think he will,” Shelby said. Shelby contends Social Security can be fixed. “What the Congress needs to do is show leadership and say, ‘Our retirement is strictly going to be Social Security,’ ” Shelby said. “Most of them are millionaires who don’t need Social Security.” He also called for the income of people taxed for Social Security to be raised to whatever the president is making. Pat Beck complained that Obama’s statement Tuesday about Social Security was a scare tactic, pure and simple. He hopes that fearful seniors will call their representatives and put pressure on them to raise the debt ceiling, Beck said. “And I think our representatives got us into this mess,” she said. Many seniors who spoke to the Post for this story noted that as a demographic group, they are more educated and more likely to vote and make their voices heard. Beck, 77, has been a widow for 25 years and is an active AARP member. She attended a Seniors Without Partners meeting Thursday and, looking over the crowd, realized that everybody was dependent on Social Security, “and I don’t see how they could live without it.” “Naturally, I depend on mine,” Beck added. “It’s important to me.” It’s funny, Beck said, how you never hear anything about congressmen not getting their paychecks. Several people answered a Facebook question posed by the Post about President Obama’s Social Security warning. “I, too, think it’s a scare tactic that will frighten many elderly people that depend on this money,” Lynn Bernhardt said. “I also think it’s a shot below the belt to target Social Security recipients.” Mary Jo Simpson also called it a “political scare tactic” with an election on the horizon. “The government spends in so many areas, but when they want more, they threaten cutbacks in four: Social Security, Medicare/Medicaid, military and education,” Simpson said. Elizabeth Turneabe asked if the Social Security checks don’t go out, how many other things don’t get paid?

Several businesses and volunteers came together this week to paint, landscape and do other projects to beautify the Terrie Hess House Child Advocacy Center.

Child advocacy center gets face-lift Lowe’s Home Improvement store, volunteers show community support with project BY SHAVONNE POTTS spotts@salisburypost.com

SALISBURY — The Terrie Hess House Child Advocacy Center has recently undergone a facelift of sorts courtesy of more than two dozen volunteers. The center, a program of Prevent Child Abuse Rowan, is a haven for victims of abuse to receive counseling and for families to receive referral services and court advocacy. Staff looked at updating the building in December and even had volunteers on board to do the work, but something changed all that. A letter was sent to the local Lowe’s Home Improvement store, an inquiry just to see if they could help out with some paint, and it yielded much more. Store Manager Tim Howard knew the store could possibly do more so he called his corporate office to check. The next day he contacted volunteer coordinator Lori Arntz to inform her they would supply the paint and the painters. This week, the building was power-washed, primed and painted and shutters were added. Arntz said they wanted the building to look like a home to show the care people receive on the inside. “Each year, each store can do a project called Lowe’s Heroes. It’s a community-based project where each associate can come out and participate in a real worthy cause,” Howard said. It’s nice to have a chance to give back, he said. “We wanted something we could do that would have positive impact,” Howard said. There were a total of 10 people from Lowe’s who donated their time on days off to work at the center. Once the project is complete, volunteers will have spent about 120 hours working on the building, he said. Valspar, the main paint supplier for Lowe’s, also sent volunteers to paint.

Employees with the local Lowe’s Home Improvement volunteered their time to paint the outside of the Terrie Hess House Child Advocacy Center. Others volunteered to landscape the property and make repairs. “It’s great. It shows a lot of community involvement. It’s something we enjoy doing,” said Andy Dickson, a Valspar employee. Rip Kersey, who is on the child advocacy center board, said one of the aspects of the center is that it be child-friendly and inviting.

SALISBURY — Seventeen candidates filed at the Rowan County Board of Elections Friday — enough to fill the slate in every municipality except Faith. Faith’s filing deadline has been extended to Wednesday in hopes that at least one more candidate will file for that town board. Noon Friday was the original filing deadline for the 10 municipalities in Rowan. The most crowded field is in Salisbury, with nine people running for five seats, but that’s modest compared to the 13 who ran in 2009. Here’s the breakdown, town by town: • China Grove: Mayor Don Bringle is unopposed in his bid for re-election, but six people have filed for the two alderman slots up for election — including some former aldermen who want to get back on the board. Incumbents Lee Withers and Ronald Overcash are in a race with Donnie Herring and former board members Butch Bivens, Steve Stroud and Allen Welter. • Cleveland: Leonard West filed Friday for the Cleveland Board of Commissioners, joining Richard Taylor and incumbents Mary Frank FlemingAdkins and John Bradford in the race for two seats. Mayor John Steele is running for re-election without opposition. • East Spencer: Part of the news in this race is what did not happen. Mayor John Cowan is not seeking re-election. Robert Smith and Barbara Mallett are the candidates in that race. Three more people filed for election as alderman, doubling the size of that field. Candidates for the three seats up this year are the incumbents — Carlton Ellis, Theodore Gladden and John Noble — challenged by Curtis Cowan, former alderman Titus King and former mayor and alderman John L. Rustin. • Faith: Four of the five incumbents have filed for re-election — Mayor Keith Deal, Mayor Pro Tem Todd Peeler and aldermen Bill Johnson Jr. and Gary Gardner. That leaves one more seat to fill, the one now held by Mark Shores. • Granite Quarry: Two more people filed for this town board, bringing the field to eight. The three seats up for

Pennsylvania Yankee finds a permanent home in Salisbury ALISBURY — During my first week as a young reporter in North Carolina, I was interviewing the head of the Cabarrus County Rescue Squad when he stopped me in mid sentence. My Northern accent led him to pose a question. MARK He told me WINEKA — and all Southerners know this — that plain ol’ Yankees come to visit and go back home where they belong. Damn Yankees come and stay. “Which one are you?” the rescue squad chief asked. I can answer with confidence now, after 33 years, that I’m a damn Yankee.

So is Joe Riley. Back in 1941, Riley’s high school principal in Roaring Spring, Pa., told Joe he might be college material. Riley was, as he likes to say, “flabbergasted.” He considered himself a weak student at best. But he was 17 years old and wanted to avoid a future of working in the town’s paper mill, where his father was an accountant. Riley knew other athleticminded boys in the Roaring Spring-Altoona area who were going south to a little college in Salisbury, N.C., called Catawba. Riley thought it was worth a shot. He sat down at the dining room table and, after crumpling up several drafts, composed a letter to Catawba that spoke of his prowess in football, basketball, baseball and track‚ in case any scholarships were

Riley and his father, Dick Sr., figured he had enough money to get through one year. After that, the paper mill loomed big in his future. “Because of that letter, here I am,” Riley, now 87, says from the living room of his Salisbury home.

Kirkland hated track and wouldn’t even award letters to students who participated in the sport. So there weren’t going to be any track scholarships, either.

Barrier is the brother of a Terrie Hess House volunteer. He began cutting away overgrown bushes in April. “He comes twice a month to maintain the garden. He recently donated a beautiful clay flowerpot with plants in there. It really dressed up our front door area,” Arntz said. Later, Novant Health, which owns the building, will add railing to the entrance of the building. Arntz said everyone at the child advocacy center is appreciative of the efforts of all those who took the time to help beautify the building and grounds. “We are just so incredibly grateful,” Arntz said.

NC town has election, but no one bothers to run TAR HEEL (AP) — You could say the town elections in Tar Heel this year are wide open. No one in this rural town of about 117 registered as candidates for any of its four elected positions, and now the deadline to do so has expired, Bladen County Board of Elections Director Cynthia Shaw said Friday. “The filing period for Tar Heel was the same as it was for everyone else, and no one stepped up to the plate,” Shaw said. The county elections board declined to extend the deadline for candidate filings, meaning ballots will be printed with blank spaces allowing voters to write in their preference, as first reported by WECT-TV. It’s a unique situation among the seven Bladen

County towns that hold municipal elections, Shaw said. “We’ve had single offices without candidates before, but this is the first time I can remember a whole town not filing for any of the offices,” she said. Tar Heel, about 25 miles south of Fayetteville, is home to a giant pork plant operated by the Smithfield Packing Company and about 87 registered voters. The town’s government consists of a mayor and three commission members, all of whom are parttime. “Nobody in our community does the job as a politician,” said Mayor Ricky Martin, who’s moving away and is therefore ineligible to run again. “It’s your friends, your relatives and your neighbors.” Martin said he’s not sur-

prised that no one wants his job, or any other elected job in Tar Heel. Many residents spend much of their time working at jobs outside the town, while others are wary of the demands elected office could put on their time. And, of course, there’s the economy. “When you have to tell your friends and your family and your neighbors that you’re going to raise their taxes, that’s not a good thing,” he said, although the current town leadership has managed to avoid tax increases during their time in office. No one’s sure exactly what will happen next. If there are no clear winners after the write-in ballots are tallied, Martin says he and the current commissioners may be unable to leave office, at least

DARTS AND LAURELS

Hart’s appeal is no mystery A ‘Fast and Furious’ fiasco Laurels to author John Hart and his loyal fans here. About 400 people showed up at the Literary Bookpost this week to see the Salisbury author, who was signing copies of his fourth novel, “Iron House.” Hart, a former attorney, tells the story of asking his wife several years ago to read a draft of his first novel. Quit practicing law and start writing more, she said. Since the publication of that first book, “King of Lies,” there’s been no looking back for Hart. It was good Wednesday to see SalisburiJohn Hart pulled in a packed house for his ans showing their loyalty and appreciaWednesday booktion for Hart — and signing at the Literary being received Bookpost. warmly by him. Hart’s fans will get another chance to see him Sept. 29 when the Seventh Annual Summer Reading Challenge presents An Evening with John Hart at Trinity Oaks. Mark your calendar. • • • Laurels to the N.C. Department of Transportation grant to Salisbury that will fund improvements in the North Lee Street area targeted for redevelopment. You might not think of wide, smooth sidewalks as an economic selling point, but a city’s sidewalks have a significant impact on its overall appeal, for better or worse. Just as the “broken windows” theory links urban decay to higher crime rates and reduced opportunities for economic development, narrow, crumbling sidewalks can have a similar impact. Thanks to the $290,000 grant, the North Lee redevelopment district should soon have streetscape improvements that will enhance North Lee and greatly improve the walkability of the Rail Walk district. • • • ... But dart to the misuse of funds that has cost East Spencer a significant grant that was to help finance anti-gang efforts. Although there’s no indication anyone sought personal gain from the funds, the state auditor’s finding revealed several instances in which town officials either didn’t fully understand the grant guidelines or deliberately ignored them. Either way, it’s damaging for East Spencer as well as for local efforts to counteract gangs and prevent young children from falling under their influence.

Common sense

(Or uncommon wisdom, as the case may be)

All the world’s a stage and most of us are desperately unrehearsed. — Sean O’Casey

Moderately confused

t’s one of those things — there are lots of them these days — that make me wonder: What on Earth would my grandmothers have to say about this? Yesterday, thanks to Natalie, my wonderful daughter-inlaw’s wonderful sister, we set up on my computer something called iChat, a wondrous bit of emagic that lets me “video conference” with anyone I choose — namely, my SHARON 10-month-old RANDALL grandson. It wasn’t easy to set up, but it was so worth it. It didn’t help, of course, that I had messed it up royally trying to do it myself without asking for help. Some people get less stubborn with age; most of us just get older. Natalie, bless her, “talked” me through it over the phone. “OK,” she said finally, “click on the little green icon.” I held my breath and clicked. Suddenly there was Randy in all his red-haired glory, staring at his parents’ computer, wondering how and why his nana had climbed inside that little box. When I shrieked, he blinked really fast the way he does when he splashes himself in the tub. “You can hang up the phone now,” Natalie said. “We hear you through the computer.” So I hung up, but couldn’t hear a thing. “Can you hear me?” My daughter-in-law nodded. “But I can’t hear you!” I said. She smiled and raised a finger to say wait. Seconds later, my son held up a handwritten note that read: “Turn up the volume on your computer.” I turned it up and heard their laughter and saw their sweet faces crowded together shining at me from a computer, of all things. And I shined, too. When I was 4 years old, my mother remarried against my advice and took me from my grandmother’s house, the only home I knew, to live 10 miles away with her new husband. Ten miles may not seem like much to you. But to a 4-year-old on a tricycle, it’s forever. “Here,” said my grandmother, slipping me a scrap of paper, “learn this by heart.” So I memorized her phone number and called her every day. Sometimes twice. It wasn’t the same as being together, but it was the best we could do. And somehow, it was enough. That was my mother’s mother. My dad’s mother lived in the mountains far away — 30 miles as the crow flies, said my dad. I went to visit her every time my mother allowed it, weekends and summer vacations. I was 10 when she got her first telephone — a “party line” shared with a few neighbors. You’d be amazed at what you can learn about people sharing a party line. I also learned her number by heart, and called her every day until the phone bill arrived and my mother explained in terms I would not soon forget the meaning of “long distance.” When I grew up and moved 3,000 miles away, I took my grandmothers’ numbers with me. I didn’t call often — not as often as I should — but I never forgot them. You don’t forget things you learn by heart. I remember the sound of their voices, how happy they always were to hear from me. It wasn’t the same as being together, but it was the best we could do. And somehow it was enough. I can’t imagine their reactions to an iChat — if they could have seen my children’s faces and watched their eyes light up in recognition when they called. Tonight, from 500 miles away, I watched my grandson smile at me from a computer and take a few first steps on his own. I wish you could’ve seen him. I wonder. Years from now, how will he stay connected to his grandchildren? As my grandmothers used to say, it’s worth waking up each day just to see what will happen next. • • • Contact Sharon Randall at www.sharonrandall.com.

EXICO CITY — Mexico’s presidential election, coming up a year from now, could easily have the U.S. gun policy known as “Fast and Furious” at the center of public debate. Revelations about how the policy was implemented and its consequences are still developing, but the bullhorn of new disclosures tends to show it was crazy from the start. “Fast and Furious,” as it now seems, was one phase of a plan managed out of Phoenix involving arms purchases destined for Mexican drug cartel members. The buys were known to U.S. government officials who were attempting to identify higher-ups in the cartels. More than 2,000 guns were sold, including those linked to the ambush killings of U.S Border Patrol agent Brian JOSE Terry and Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent DE LE ISLA Jaime Zapata. ABC News reported in early July that Fast and Furious weapons were used in several crimes committed in Arizona. But the “higher-ups,” who authorities were attempting to identify through the operation, were already known to other investigative agencies and may have been paid informants. Kenneth Melson, acting director of the federal agency Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, said the others included the FBI and Drug Enforcement Agency, which kept his agency in the dark and he would not be the fall guy now that disclosures show what a deadly fiasco they were all engaged in. Had he known, Melson claimed, the ATF could have had a material impact on the Fast and Furious investigation as far back as late 2009 or early 2010. The arms were allowed to slip by AFT agents into presumed organized-crime hands. One disgruntled agent was said to have reported that only 20 arms traffickers were detected during 14 months of the operation and no cartel was dismantled because of it. On July 3, Mexican authorities captured Jesus Enrique Rejon Aguilar, known as Z-7, one of the original 14 principle leaders of the extremely violent Zetas drug cartel. He dis-

closed his belief that the U.S. government was involved in facilitating arms to a rival criminal gang, the Gulf cartel. According Mexico City’s daily Excelsior, he stated to federal police that for a time buyers for the rival gang said even the U.S. government was selling arms and facilitating transport of them and there seemed to be some kind of agreement with the authorities. Fast and Furious may not have been an isolated matter. According to Excelsior, 115 of the arms confiscated from cartel members were found to have originated from Texas. The lawyer for gun dealers in Houston, Dick Deguerin, told Excelsior that his clients reported suspicious purchases of assault rifles, 9mm revolvers, and AK-47s. One chain store was told by ATF to continue providing them with information about suspicious sales and to continue selling arms to Hispanic purchasers of high-powered weapons who paid in cash. ATF took the information, said Deguerin, but his client never heard from the agency. The Houston operation may have been called “Gunwalker.” A third staging, in Tampa, Florida, was called “Castaway”. It apparently let arms flow to Honduras that later showed up at crime scenes in Mexico, according to Excelsior. Novelist Larry Correia blogged, “If I were to write a thriller in which a federal law enforcement agency knowingly allowed and even encouraged thousands of American guns to cross the border to arm Mexican drug cartels, in an effort to pad their stats to push for more gun control laws, even though innocent Mexican citizens and a U.S. Border Patrol agent were killed in the process and afterward there would be a huge cover-up that went all the way to the President,... some reviewers would say that my plot was silly.” Not silly. Deadly, deliberately crazy. U.S. policy insanity is already severely criticized in Mexican civic society. Some Mexican senators have called for the extradition of responsible agents to answer for arms trafficking. That does not sound so crazy anymore. • • • Jose de la Isla writes commentary for Hispanic Link News Service.

Young volunteers provide an extra lift on moving day Unexpectedly and amazingly, the east Rowan community rallied to support Connie and me again. Going back to September 2010, East Rowan YMCA folks and high school teachers organized a productive fundraiser/barbecue. This helped offset my chemotherapy costs. Now, I’m blessed with another supportive surge of love. This time from baby boomers: parents, Mark and Ashley Huneycutt; also coaches at East Rowan cross country, Rick Roseman and Billy Mills. Special thanks to family owned Salisbury Moving and Storage employees, Darrell, Dean and Walker. This family donated use of a large moving truck and their personal labor of love, alongside the efforts of friend and columnist David Freeze. But now the extraordinary part of the story. East Rowan’s team did the majority of the work on a 92-degree day. Probably 30 boys and girls, including some recruits from Erwin Middle, were instrumental in this project. These are 15-year-old children who volunteered a care-free summer day to help Connie and me move from Woodleaf. The toughness and character exhibited under Coach Roseman’s supervision has shown me a side of youth I wasn’t looking for. The manners and compassion I experienced in watching these girls and guys lifting heavy furniture up stairways, smiling all the time, was something just short of tremendous. In conclusion, thanks again, guys! I and other parents probably need to refrain from giving the next generation such an undeserving “bad rap” and get involved. I guess you find what you’re looking for. I found how proud and blessed we parents should be of those “darn kids.” When you look deeply in their hearts of gold, they’re often very impressive. — Joe and Connie Endres Salisbury

Waiting for a higher response I thought it rather amusing that city officials made getting a permit so complicated for those who wanted to protest the recent gay-lesbian event. If anybody wants to protest this despicable parade of depraved human activity, I would advise you to protest Mayor Susan Kluttz who gave her blessing and any other pertinent government officer responsible for allowing this to happen. They are the ones who will be held accountable to an even greater degree at the judgment bar of God. Evidently, none of these elected officials knows anything about world history. Every past civilization was corrupted and destroyed by this very activity. In every society, it is those who have the power to govern people and enforce laws who will be held to a higher standard of accountability when the hearts of men and women will be judged by almighty God one day. The sentence he renders will be final. It doesn’t matter if people believe that or not. Nobody believed in Noah’s day, either, and look what happened to them. The fool hath said in his heart there is no God. People make their own choices. It’s evident that none of thes city officials realize the danger and trouble they have placed upon Salisbury and this area. God is not mocked. He still rules in the affairs of mankind, and he will have the last say in this matter as well. I wonder what kind of response God is going to send for his “protest.” — Larry Beaver Faith

The report said Evans seemed nervous after being stopped by police and continued fumbling with his waistband. Authorities reported that because Evans was not wearing a belt, his pants fell to the ground as they searched him, revealing a

Evans, 603 E. Lafayette St., was arrested and charged with possession of marijuana, possession of drug paraphernalia, carrying a concealed weapon and resisting arrest. He was given a $5,000 bond.

Clarke, Glover lead British BY DOUG FERGUSON Associated Press

ASSOCIATEd PRESS

Clemson grad Lucas Glover is in the hunt for a British Open championship.

SANDWICH, England — Darren Clarke marched along bumpy fairways on a wild ride at Royal St. George’s that was filled with blunders and brilliance, and one final birdie that brought the kind of ovation he had not heard in a decade at the British Open. Right behind him was Lucas Glover, far more steady in closing his solid round with eight straight pars. When a sun-baked and wind-blown second round finally ended Friday, they shared the lead in a major that is living up to its proper name. The Open Championship is every bit of that. Before anyone could get excited about the prospects of Clarke deliv-

ering yet another major to Northern Ireland, all it took was one look down the leaderboard — all the way to the bottom — to realize this championship was just getting started. Only seven shots separated first from worst going into the weekend. “There’s still two days of tough golf and tough weather ahead of us,” Clarke said. Clarke, a forgotten figure as Graeme McDowell and Rory McIlroy captured the U.S. Open the last two years, bounced back from a double bogey to make a 90-foot eagle putt and survived a few more hiccups on his way to another 2-under 68. Glover, playing the kind of golf that won him a U.S. Open two years ago in New York, has made only three ASSOCIATEd PRESS

ROWAN AMATEUR

Brutal with his honesty BY STEPHEN SMITH Scripps Howard News

It’s doubtful that the recently-retired Shaquille O’Neal and Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker James Harrison have ever appeared in the same sentence together before now, so consider this a historic moment — kind of. The fact is, they just don’t have a lot in common other than the fact that they’re professional athletes. HARRISON O’Neal was the NBA’s dominant force in the paint and a Hall of Fame jokester who’ll be on the TNT desk with Charles, Ernie and Kenny this fall (if there’s an NBA season). Harrison is the living embodiment of the heavyhitting defense he plays for and he’s all business all the time. Conversely, he has no place on television and might want to reconsider doing any more interviews as well. The August issue of Men’s Journal hasn’t even hit the shelves yet (I checked already), but the firestorm surrounding the article, “Confessions of a Hit Man” is already at gale force. Some are already saying that Harrison’s days in Pittsburgh are numbered, others say they should end now based on his comments and the general tone of the article. To both parties, I can only emphatically say, “Get a grip.” Team brass will be angry and probably put Harrison on some sort of double-secret probation, but he’s staying put. Sure, referring to NFL

Ronnie Eidson watches his tee shot during the first round of the Rowan Amateur on Friday at Corbin Hills.

Eidson going for another title BY RYAN BISESI rbisesi@salisburypost.com

SALISBURY — Ronnie Eidson knew it would be a good day when he escaped what he called “death valley” at Corbin Hills Golf Course on Friday, the first day of the 33rd Annual Horace Billings Rowan Amateur. “Holes 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5,” said the defending champion. “If you can come out of that even par, you’ve done

well.” Eidson, going for his third Amateur championship, made out OK and then some as he hit birdies on holes 5, 6, 7 and 10 and stayed bogey-free to get off to a solid start on the first day of the tournament. He was 4-under after 10 holes of match play to take his first-day match by a 10 & 8 margin. “I can remember when I was really nervous playing this,” Eidson said.

“Now, I just look at it as a round of golf.” Edison won his first tournament in 2008 before winning again last year. The top-seeded Edison, a 1972 graduate of Salisbury High, and the rest of the 32-man field enjoyed an unseasonably mild day with temperatures in the 70’s thanks to an overcast sky that blocked the usually harsh July sun. “I thought playing conditions were

fantastic today,” Eidson said. Eidson, who’s battled heart issues and is a diabetic, hopes his health won’t hinder his efforts in seeking another crown. He sat out the Rowan Masters last month as a precaution. “There’s days I go out and I can’t make 18 holes,” Eidson said. “I hope I can make it tomorrow. If I can’t, I’ll just withdraw.”

Newman on New Hampshire pole BY DAN GELSTON Associated Press

LOUDON, N.H. — Stewart-Haas Racing finally gets top billing. Ryan Newman won his 47th career pole, turning a track-record lap of 135.232 mph Friday at New Hampshire Motor Speedway and Tony Stewart was second to give SHR its first front-row sweep. Stewart was right behind his employee and teammate at 135.064. They were the only drivers to top 135 mph. “Awesome for the organization,”

Stewart said. Newman won his first pole of the season in the No. 39 Chevrolet, a far cry from the 20 combined poles he earned in 2003-04. Those pole positions early in his career helped boost his total and he’s now 10th on the career poles list, including a record five poles at New Hampshire. “It works,” he said. “It’s like making good macaroni and cheese. Sometimes, it just tastes good. I don’t know what the entire chemistry is, but I like it.” It’s the sixth pole for Stewart-Haas Racing, but the first time both SHR Chevrolets will start side-by-side at the

front of the field. “I felt really confident in practice today that we would have a shot at the pole today just based on the way the car felt,” Newman said. Newman hopes the strong start will translate into his first victory of the season. Newman enters Sunday’s Sprint Cup race ninth in the points standings. “Without a doubt I have higher expectations; when you have the fastest race car you have no excuse,” Newman said. “It’s just a matter of making it the fastest ASSOCIATEd PRESS

Rowan home tonight From staff reports High Point’s Legion team beat Randolph County 8-4 to win the A Bracket of the Area III playoffs on Friday and clinch a spot in the state tournament. High Point went 5-1 in bracket play, with its only loss a 9-8 decision against South Rowan in the second round. The third seed from the Northern Division, High Point (19-8) starts a best-of-three series with Southern Division No. 1 seed Rowan County (23-6) tonight at Newman Park and will play host to Rowan at historic Finch Field on Sunday. If a third game is needed, it will be at Newman Park on Monday. The teams will be playing for pride, a championship and seeding in the upcoming state tournament.

Ortiz appeals suspension ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) — Red Sox slugger David Ortiz is appealing the four-game suspension he received for his part in Boston’s bench-clearing melee with the Baltimore Orioles last week. He was in the lineup against the Tampa Bay Rays on Friday night as the designated hitter. Ortiz was suspended Thursday, along with Orioles pitchers Kevin Gregg and Mike Gonzalez and Baltimore manager Buck Showalter. He declined to specifically address his suspension. “After I go through the whole thing (I can address it),” Ortiz said. “I can’t really talk about it now. But at one point I will. I’ll tell you what I was thinking. I’ll tell you what I thought was right.” Ortiz has not been told when the appeal will heard. “Hopefully soon,” Ortiz said. “We’ll see.” Gregg and Gonzalez said Thursday they would appeal their suspensions that followed the fight on July 8. The Red Sox didn’t play Thursday, and Boston manager Terry Francona said Ortiz was excused from the team’s workout in Florida to give him an extra day to recover from the AllStar game. The skirmish started when Gregg threw two inside pitches to Ortiz. The DH started toward the mound after the second, and players from both

benches and bullpens trotted onto the field, but nothing further developed. Gregg then got Ortiz to pop out and shouted something to the Boston slugger, who charged and met Gregg about halfway between the mound and first base line. Umpire Mike Estabrook ejected Gregg and Ortiz. Gregg said he was merely protecting himself and questioned the decision to suspend him for the same number of games as Ortiz. Ortiz apologized the next day, but in the series finale on July 10 Gonzalez threw a pitch behind Ortiz. Gonzalez and Showalter immediately were ejected. “It’s the kind of situation that you don’t want to be involved with,” Ortiz said. “It’s not what the fans come to watch. Definitely, you feel embarrassed.” The Red Sox and Orioles open a three-game series Monday night in Baltimore, and Ortiz is hopeful there will be no carryover. “Not from my side, you know what I’m saying?” Ortiz said. “This all happened already. “Major League Baseball is always doing the right thing to make sure we don’t get into that too much. There’s going to be some suspensions, some fines, and hopefully everybody turns the page.” “There’s one thing that I can control ... David Ortiz,” he added. “Can’t control anything else.”

SPORTS DIGEST

How to make the All-Star game relevant again innings. Yet five AL All-Stars did not play, including three pitchers (they only used five). Hall of Famer Jim “Catfish” Hunter threw five innings of relief and took the loss. In 1984, the National League beat the American League 3-1. The NL used only five pitchers. Ryne Sandberg, Ozzie Smith and Dale Murphy played the entire game at second, short and center field, respectively. Six NL players had three at-bats or more. Only 22 of the 29 NL All-Stars played in the game. Tuesday night, the NL won 5-1. Only one player from either team (immortal NL second baseman Rickie Weeks) played the entire game. The National League used

10 pitchers and all 21 position players who were healthy enough to play. Prince Fielder hit the gamewinning home run in the fourth inning off the illustrious C.J. Wilson. In 1984, if someone like Prince Fielder were coming up in the fourth inning he would have had to hit that three-run homer off one Jack Morris. You know, a legitimate All-Star pitcher. Not a journeyman lefty who has been pretty good lately. To further the cause, play the game on Wednesday so every pitcher can pitch. The American League had Justin Verlander, CC Sabathia and James Shields — only three of the four best pitchers in the league so far this year — unavailable to them.

Former stars ready Associated Press

Bert Blyleven is still finetuning his Hall of Fame speech. So is Roberto Alomar, and he might have the more difficult task when the two former major league stars enter baseball’s hallowed ground. “It’s not going to be an easy one. I’m going to start in Spanish,” Alomar said Friday on a conference call, nine days before both will be inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame. “After that, I’m going to finish in English. “I think your nerves are always going to take over,” Alomar said. “Your heart is going to be pumping, your knees shaking. It’s like Lou Gehrig said — I’m going to be the happiest man that day.” Alomar’s signature moment figured to come a year earlier, but the switch-hitting

second baseman who hit 210 home runs, drove in 1,134 runs, and batted .300 was bypassed in his first year of eligibility for the Hall of Fame. This year he was named on 90 percent of ballots cast, becoming just the 26th player to garner at least 90 percent in any election, and he was listed on 523 ballots, the third-highest total of all time. For Blyleven, induction will cap a most memorable eight-day stretch. The Minnesota Twins, whom he helped to the 1987 World Series title in his second stint with the club, are retiring his No. 28 in a ceremony on Saturday. “It’s kind of a nice steppingstone to the following weekend in Cooperstown. The honors are coming my way and it’s very, very nice,” Blyleven said.

Lawsuit filed over Duke basketball tickets RALEIGH — A family squabble over season tickets to Duke men's basketball games has resulted in a legal fight. A woman filed a lawsuit Friday against her sister, her sister's husband and Duke University regarding the transfer of two tickets that once belonged to her father for games at Cameron Indoor Stadium. Katina Dorton is seeking unspecified damages and asking the court to invalidate the "fraudulent transfer" to Gordon and Sophia Caudle that occurred without the knowledge or consent of her father or other family members, according to the complaint. "This is important and it's valuable," said Randall M. Roden, an attorney for Dorton. "She's a graduate. She genuinely wants to support the Blue Devils and go to the games. But she was shocked by the way Duke handled this." Michael J. Schoenfeld, Duke's vice president for public affairs and government relations, declined to comment on the lawsuit filed in Wake County Superior Court. John Dorton, a Duke graduate and dentist who treated athletes and coaches over the years, bought tickets through longtime contributions to the Iron Dukes — the fundraising arm of the school's athletic department. He was "ill and unable to act for himself" when the transfer occurred in July 2008, according to the complaint, and died in January 2010 at

age 81. The Iron Dukes allow members to pass on tickets to family members willing to meet financial obligations, according to the complaint. In this case, that meant a $50,000 transfer donation and a $6,000 annual contribution. The lawsuit seeks to void the Caudles' arrangement while allowing Katina Dorton to assume the transferred ticket rights. "Sophia and Gordon Caudle regret that this private family matter has been made public," said John N. Hutson Jr., an attorney for the Caudles.

GOLF MADISON, Miss. — For nearly four hours, Troy Matteson tried to figure out ways to kill time in the clubhouse as thunderstorms rolled across Annandale Golf Club. He watched a little television. Swapped stories with other golfers. Counted the minutes as they slowly ticked off the clock. Turns out it was worth the wait. Matteson birdied his final three holes of the day after the lengthy delay, taking advantage of Annandale's forgiving fairways and greens to share the Viking Classic lead with George McNeill. • STATELINE, Nev. — Self-described "pip-squeak" actor Jack Wagner made seven birdies Friday to jump out to the first-round lead at the American Century Celebrity Golf Championship at Lake Tahoe. Former NHL All-Star Jeremy Roenick and ex-quarterback Chris Chandler were

tied for second at Edgewood Tahoe Golf Course. Others in the hunt included hockey's Mike Modano and Brett Hull, Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo and former pitcher Rick Rhoden, who has won the event a record eight times.

same underlying issue; that is, the league’s expenses far outpace our revenues.” “The roughly 11 percent reduction is part of larger cost-cutting measures to reduce our costs by $50 million across all areas of our business,” Bass said.

NBA

LOURDES, France — The most grueling stage yet of the Tour de France looms in the Pyrenees in what promises to be the race's first major turning point. "It's going to be one of the key days," two-time runnerup Cadel Evans said. "There'll be fireworks, don't worry." The test comes Saturday, a day after after Norway's Thor Hushovd won the 13th stage and France's Thomas Voeckler kept the yellow jersey.

NEW YORK — The NBA laid off about 114 people over the last two days, planned cost-cutting moves that a league spokesman said Thursday are “not a direct result of the lockout.” The laid off employees represent about 11 percent of the league office workforce in New York, New Jersey and internationally. Spokesman Mike Bass said the layoffs are “not a direct result of the lockout but rather a response to the

The baseball notebook ... ST. LOUIS — Tony La Russa is a big rock fan, having hosted members of the Eagles and Journey among others in his office as manager of the St. Louis Cardinals. He’s a bit lukewarm on U2, though. “I think they’re all right,” La Russa said. “They’re not top 10, but they’re good. They put on a good show.” La Russa and his team will be in Cincinnati this weekend, meaning he won’t have a chance to catch Sunday’s U2 concert at Busch Stadium. Organizers anticipate a crowd of 52,000, which would be a record for the 6-year-old stadium. Crews began tearing out sod hours after the Cardinals beat the Arizona Diamondbacks last Sunday, clearing the way for a massive revolving stage that features claw-like legs and a huge video screen behind the band. The home and visitor’s dugouts will serve as firstaid stations. The visitor’s clubhouse will be the dressing room for U2; the Cardinals’ clubhouse will be the only area off-limits to the band. Vicki Bryant, vice presi-

dent of event services and merchandising at the stadium, said workers began hauling in 110 semi-truck loads of equipment on Tuesday. It will take two days to clear the stadium after the show, giving the grounds crew a week to lay new sod in preparation for the Cardinals’ next home game on July 25. “It’s a tremendous undertaking,” Martin said. “Everything’s magnified by the sheer size of the event.” Last year, the Eagles and Dixie Chicks drew a crowd of about 36,000 at Busch and crews had to re-plant sod only in the outfield, working 40 consecutive hours to ready the stadium. BRAVES ATLANTA — The Braves have signed lefthander Sean Gilmartin, the team's first-round pick from Florida State, for a bonus of $1,134,000. Braves director of scouting Tony DeMacio said Friday Gilmartin is expected to "move fast through our system" after reporting to the team's minor league complex in Orlando. Gilmartin was 12-1 with a 1.83 ERA in 2011. He had 122 strikeouts and was ranked by Baseball America as the 16th-best college pitcher in the draft.

WASHINGTON — One minute Roger Clemens was on trial for his freedom. Then, on just the second day of testimony, it was suddenly all over and the former baseball star was outside signing autographs for fans. Almost as soon as it began, Clemens’ perjury trial ended Thursday — in a mistrial the judge blamed on prosecutors and said a “firstyear law student” would have known to avoid. U.S. District Judge Reggie Walton left the question of a new trial up in the air. But he called a halt to the trial under way after prosecutors showed jurors evidence that he had ruled out — videotaped revelations that a teammate had said he’d told his wife Clemens confessed to using a drug. Walton scolded prosecutors and said he couldn’t let the former All-Star pitcher face prison if convicted on such “extremely prejudicial” evidence. “Mr. Clemens has to get a fair trial,” Walton said. “In my view, he can’t get it now.” Defense attorney Rusty Hardin, who had asked for the mistrial declaration, patted an unsmiling Clemens on the back as the judge announced his decision. As he left the courthouse, Clemens did not comment but accepted hugs from a couple of court workers, shook hands with the security guards and autographed baseballs for fans waiting outside. The quick end on only the

second day of testimony was the second mistrial involving a former star player accused in baseball’s steroids scandal. Home run king Barry Bonds was convicted three months ago of obstruction of justice, but a mistrial was called on three more serious false-statements charges after jurors couldn’t agree on a verdict. Walton said he would hold a hearing Sept. 2 to decide whether Clemens should face another trial. Hardin told reporters, “I wouldn’t even hazard a guess” about what Walton will decide. Walton could end the prosecution by declaring that a new trial would run afoul of double jeopardy — the right not to be brought to trial twice on the same charges for the same offense. But experts said it was unlikely that he would go that far, especially since the trial was just under way. “Generally speaking, mistrial does not bar a trial of the defendant when the defendant requested the mistrial,” said Harry Sandick, a former prosecutor who now defends white-collar cases. He said a judge may make an exception for misconduct on the part of prosecutors, but this appears to have been a simple yet devastating mistake. “How could the government not have reviewed each piece of evidence after the court’s pretrial rulings?” he said. “This is crucially important, and prosecutors have to do this all the time.”

Finally, unless you are on the disabled list, if you are picked for the All-Star Game, then you must attend. Ultimately you can dress this sucker up as much as you want. But once MLB decided to institute interleague play, the All-Star Game lost its major selling point, that this was the only time all year that the two leagues faced each other before the World Series. Throw in that every game is now televised, and there is no mystery associated with the “other league.” There is no way they can make it what it was. But MLB can make it better. They could make it an All-Star Game again.

Major League Baseball needs to stop making the All-Star Game “count.” The gimmick was put in place a few years ago to try and halt sagging ratings and interest in the game. In turn, ratings and interest have gone down to recordlow levels and participation from the players has as well. Larry Bowa was recently a guest on our radio show and he suggested to go back to when they just alternated years as to which league had home-field advantage in the World Series. My suggestion has always been the team with the better record gets home-field advantage. Making the game “count”

has failed. MLB would be smart to move on. Now if MLB wants to change the All-Star Game, make the game more interesting. How? By having the better players play more. In recent years, rosters have been expanded. So we see less of the great players and more of the good ones. Instead, limit the rosters. The fans vote in the starters, and the managers make sure one guy from every team is represented (which from a marketing standpoint is needed). After that, very few spots are left, and they would be filled in with the best of the remaining best. The game has evolved badly. In 1967, the National League beat the American League 2-1 in 15

Dorsett, the 2007 champion and China Grove native, was quite at home in his native course, winning 6 & 5. “I’ve played here since I was two or three years old,” Dorsett said. “It’’s a little tighter and the greens are smaller here. You’ve got to be accurate.” Dorsett planted birdies on holes 1, 6, 8, 11 and 12 before finishing off his opponent. “I looked at it as I’m com-

ing out here and try to make as many birdies as I can and if I win, I win, If I don’t, I don’t.” Randy Bingham won 1-up on Jason Bernhardt. Eric Mulkey was an upper bracket winner, beating Michael Snoody, Jr. by a 5 & 4 margin. Other upper bracket winners included Michael Dorsett (3 & 2), Chuck Stockford (5 & 4), Brett Adams (2 up). In the lower bracket, former South Rowan star Andrew Morgan was a 3 & 1 winner against Clark Corriher and Shane Benfield won 3 & 2 versus Ken Crouch. Other lower bracket winners included Brian Jones (2 & 1), Chris Sifford (6 & 5), Mallory McDaniel (5 & 4) and Derek Corpening (6 & 5).

Schwartzel was feeling better about his chances after a 67 in the second round. He’s not sure he hit the ball any better than Thursdays, but the bounces seemed to go his way. And yes, there are a lot of bounces. “Yesterday I felt I was playing well. I was hitting good shots and I was getting penalized for it,” Schwartzel said. “I was hitting tee shots on the lines I was aiming for — and you’re talking one yard either way and you’re absolutely perfect — and you end up in bunkers and chipping out sideways, and now all of a sudden grinding for bogeys. “After a while,” he said, “that starts getting frustrating.” Then again, the South African realizes that everyone is playing the same course. Everyone will be getting the odd bounce during a round. “That’s what you sort of comfort yourself on,” he said. “You hope someone else is getting these sort of breaks.” Schwartzel did get some good fortune of his own in the second round. His 3wood into the par-5 14th was headed for trouble to the left when it struck a spectator in the head and bounced back toward a bunker. He wound up making par. “It was actually a good break,” he said. “I felt sorry for the guy, but it’s one of those things.” • STRICKER STRIKES AGAIN: Steve Stricker has a chance at a feat achieved only once, and that was 40 years ago — winning a tour event, then winning the British Open the next week. Lee Trevino did that in 1971 with the Canadian and

British Open. Only nine other players have won the week before winning a major, the most recent being Tiger Woods at the Bridgestone Invitational and the PGA Championship in 2007. Oddly enough, Stricker couldn’t crack the top 50 the last two years that he won the John Deere Classic. On Friday, Stricker had a bogey on the easy par-5 seventh, but made enough birdies for a 71 and was only four shots out of the lead. • BACK HOME: Perhaps one reason Darren Clarke is having his best British Open in a decade is his move back home to Northern Ireland, mainly for his two sons and their schooling. “The right time for Tyrone, my first born, to be with everybody else,” said Clarke, whose wife died of cancer in 2006. “It’s a lot easier to play better whenever family life and stuff at home is much better, much more stable again.” The other perk? Returning to Royal Portrush, the only links course outside Britain to host the Open Championship. It’s where Clarke grew up, learning to cope with strong wind and harsh weather. That’s what players generally face at the Open, and what they likely will get on the weekend. “I’ve been doing a lot of practicing in bad weather because that’s usually what we get at Portrush,” he said. “It’s not always that bad. But it’s certainly been tough conditions practicing, not quite as easy as it was when I was living in London. It’s a case of getting used to playing in bad weather on links again, and that’s what I’ve been doing all over the winter and stuff at home. Hope-

Put the 52-year-old on a links course that measures 7,211 yards and plays to a par 70, and he looks like a kid again. Tom Watson is 61, nearly won the British Open two years ago, and will be playing on the weekend at Royal St. George’s. Lehman is not surprised. “Not being able to carry the ball as far actually benefits you in some ways on a lot of these tee shots,” said

Lehman, who won the 1996 Open at Royal Lytham & St. Annes. “The balls that travel so much further in the air tend to land in sports which are a lot more bouncy, a lot more humps and bumps, and balls that fly shorter — like mine — tend to land on more flat spots.” Lehman said that’s true at some links, but especially here. “That’s one reason the older guys, or the more experienced guys, are able to do OK,” he said. “Length isn’t required. It’s more about accuracy and the line you take and hitting it where you’re aiming.”

Rory Mcilroy acknowledges the crowd after putting on the 18th green during the second day of the British Open.

BRITISH FROM 1B bogeys in the opening two rounds. He had a 70 to join Clarke in the lead at 4under 136. “Unlike often when you’re in contention in a championship where it may be between six, seven, eight of you, now it’s between the whole field,” Thomas Bjorn said. “You’ve just got to go out there and knuckle down and see where it gets you to on Sunday afternoon.” Bjorn (72) was one shot behind along with PGA champion Martin Kaymer (69), Chad Campbell (68) and Miguel Angel Jimenez (71). The 29 players within four shots of the lead included U.S. Open champion Rory McIlroy, who met his goal of getting to even par for the tournament with a spectacular save from a buried lie in the pot bunker in front of the 18th green. McIlroy will play Saturday for the third straight time with Rickie Fowler, a fellow 22-year-old who fought his way to a 70 and then summed up the state of this British Open going into the weekend. “It’s basically a new tournament starting tomorrow,” Fowler said. That won’t be the case for Luke Donald, who became the second No. 1 player this year to miss the cut in a major. His hopes ended when his ball plugged so badly in a bunker on the 17th that he had to play back toward the fairway, only to see it roll back into the sand. Donald at least was in good

company. Lee Westwood at No. 2 also missed the cut and refused to speak to reporters. Even with a beloved figure like Clarke in the lead, nothing is drawing more attention than the weather. The forecast is strong wind and increasing rain late in the morning, followed by heavy rain and even stronger gusts in the afternoon. Depending on the weather, it could be a repeat of 10 years ago at Royal Lytham & St. Annes, when David Duval started the third round seven shots out of the lead and wound up with a share of the lead by the end of the day. “There’s an awful long way to go yet, and I believe the forecast for the weekend is very, very poor, which I quite look forward to,” Clarke said. “But the course is going to play very, very tough. If that’s the case, then the tournament is still wide open for an awful lot of players.” So many players, in fact, that it was easy to overlook Phil Mickelson, who has never fared well at the British Open and suddenly finds himself within three shots of the lead going into the weekend. “I’m looking forward to that challenge, and I’m hoping I’ve got the shots now to be effective in it,” Mickelson said. The eclectic mix of contenders still includes 20-year-old amateur Tom Lewis, who shared the lead after the first round with a 65 and held it together until the end of his round when he three-putted the 17th and was fortunate to make bogey on the final hole. His shot

from the rough went over the green and was headed out of bounds until the ball hit the stake. He shot 74, and was still only three shots behind. On the other end of the spectrum was 61-year-old Tom Watson, who put on another memorable show with a hole-inone on the sixth hole, hitting a pure 4iron from 160 yards into the wind that took one hop and banged off the pin before dropping into the cup. “They’re all lucky when they go in,” Watson said. “But that’s what I was aiming at.” The group at 2-under 138 included a former Ryder Cup captain in Tom Lehman (67) and the current captain in Davis Love III (68). They were joined by Masters champion Charl Schwartzel, who has experience with a crowded leaderboard. He was among eight players who had a share of the lead on the final day at Augusta National until he birdied the last four holes to win by two. McIlroy was the favorite going into the British Open, and it’s hard to rule him out at only four shots behind. At times the kid looked as though he was ready to make a move, only to miss a key putt for find a bunker that led to bogey. Even so, he was right where he needed to be. “I think you’ll see a lot of chopping and changing at the top of the leaderboard,” he said. “It’s the most open Open I’ve seen in a long time. Yeah, I think it’ll be excited to be a part of, and it’ll be excited to watch over the next two days.”

PRO/COLLEGE FOOTBALL

Players: Progress being made NEW YORK — Noting that “progress has been made,” NFL owners and players wrapped up a round of intensive talks Friday without a full agreement to end the league’s four-month lockout, but determined to keep pushing over the weekend. NFL Players Association head DeMaurice Smith expects to speak with NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell in the next couple of days, possibly in person, while the two sides’ legal and financial teams continue working. After about eight hours of negotiations in New York on Friday — tacked onto more than 25 hours across Wednesday and Thursday — the league and players issued a joint statement, saying: “The discussions this week have been constructive and progress has been made on a wide range of issues.” They did not reveal any details, citing a gag order imposed by the court-appointed mediator, U.S. Magistrate Judge Arthur Boylan. “I wouldn’t dare speculate on where we are,” said Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, one of six members of the owners’ labor committee participating Friday. But people familiar with the discussions told The Associated Press that Fri-

day’s talks moved beyond economic issues to cover other remaining areas where gaps need to be bridged to finish off a deal. That included player health and safety matters, such as offseason workout rules. The aim was to build upon the significant steps made Thursday, when the framework for a rookie salary system was established, including that firstround draft picks will sign four-year contracts with a club option for a fifth year. On another financial matter, the per-team cap figure for 2011 will be in the range of $120 million in salaries plus about $20 million or so in benefits, according to people with knowledge of the talks. The people spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because the negotiations aimed at breaking the impasse are supposed to be confidential. One person also told the AP that owners first learned Thursday that the NFLPA set up $200,000 in “lockout insurance” for each player if the 2011 season were lost entirely, a policy that cost at least $10 million and was taken out nearly a year ago. That policy was first reported by SI.com. The NFL’s first work stoppage since 1987 began in March, when owners

HARRISON FroM 1B Commissioner Roger Goodell as a “crook” and a “devil” wasn’t the thing to do. OK, calling out two teammates — quarterback Ben Roethlisberger and running back Rashard Mendenhall — for their performance in Super Bowl XLV isn’t good for team unity. And, of course, remarks about Texans linebacker Brian Cushing’s positive test for performance-enhancing drugs, saying “he was juiced out of his mind,” and other comments on the New England Patriots provided unnecessary bulletin-board material. Apparently, when it comes to brutal honesty, Harrison dishes it by the ton. But, the problem may not really lie with what he said, but rather how he chose phrase it. Let’s keep it real on two points:

AssociAted press

JAMES HARRISON

— 1. Goddell has been inconsistent when it comes to dishing out punishment. Players’ feet get held to fire routinely for off-field misbehavior as should happen. But when the Patriots’ Bill Belichick’s cheating ways came to light, his feet and those of his organization were only lukewarm at best while the evidence disappeared and the three Lombardi trophies stayed put.

locked out players after negotiations broke down and the old collective bargaining agreement expired. Now the preseason is just a few weeks away. The Hall of Fame game that opens the exhibition season is scheduled for Aug. 7 between the St. Louis Rams and Chicago Bears, who hope to be in training camp by next weekend. Yet camps won’t start before a new CBA is in place. Boylan, who has been on vacation, ordered both sides to meet with him in Minneapolis early next week, and the owners have a special meeting set for next Thursday in Atlanta, where they potentially could ratify a new deal — if one is reached by then. Any agreement also must be voted on by groups of players, including the named plaintiffs in a class-action antitrust lawsuit pending in federal court and the NFLPA’s 32 team representatives. “We made some progress; we continue to have a lot of work to do,” Smith said as he left Friday’s session at a Manhattan law firm. “I know everybody is frustrated, and they want a definitive answer. I hate to disappoint you; you’re not going to get one right now. We’re going to conAssociAted press tinue to work, and I think that’s a posipanthers owner Jerry richardson leaves the meeting. tive sign.”

— 2. Roethlisberger and Mendenhall’s mistakes turned momentum in the Super Bowl. On a first-half play, Roethlisberger re-aggravated a foot injury originally disclosed in Week 11. So, instead of turning losses into short gains and big plays as he did in Super Bowl XLIII, Big Ben was limited to the pocket. And that’s not his game. And while Harrison’s portrayal of Mendenhall as a “fumbling machine” was inaccurate, his miscue to open the fourth quarter got the Packers off the ropes. As for the rest, plop down your own $6 or so in a couple of weeks and make up your own mind — ravings of madman or brutal, unapologetic truth? Finally, there was a connection of sorts between O’Neal and Harrison found in an old quote: “I started out as a football player. I liked to inflict pain,” O’Neal said. “In basketball, it was the same thing.”

Brothers, Dean & Ned had a problem. For 15 months they'd been trying, unsuccessfully, to sell a home they'd inherited on Polo Rd. First, they tried to sell it themselves, and then, for a year, they used a well known real estate firm. Finally, they gave us a call. We met and suggested a number of things they should do to increase the probability of their home selling in this tough market. They did everything we suggested and then, we developed a customized marketing plan for their home--not the typical cookie cutter plan--and placed it on the market. Soon we had it under contract for 95% of the asking price. Shortly before the sale was to close, the buyer purchased a new car. Unfortunately, this changed her credit ratios causing her loan to fall through. So, we had to put the home back on the market. Again we were successful in finding a buyer. This time, the sale went through as scheduled. We're pleased we could help Dean and Ned sell their home. Perhaps you know someone who is thinking about buying or selling a home and might benefit from our advice. If so, have them give us a call so we can help them, too. Why take a chance with anyone else?

A vow to fix the traffic by NASCAR

NFL receiver takes shots at NASCAR star Johnson BY DAN GELSTON Associated Press

BY DAN GELSTON Associated Press

LOUDON, N.H. — Bruton Smith boasted about the largest crowd to attend a NASCAR race this season: More than 100,000 fans filled Kentucky Speedway in its inaugural Sprint Cup Series event. Unfortunately for NASCAR, it was the fans who couldn’t get there that got the headlines. The lasting memory of the race is not Kyle Busch taking the checkered flag, but the gridlocked cars filled with fans who were, in NASCAR terms, red-flagged and forced SMITH to sit on I-71 with no shot at making the big pass and arriving to the track in time for the start — or even the halfway point — of the race. Smith, the track owner, and NASCAR officials want answers to why fans were stuck in traffic for hours as they tried to get to Saturday night’s race at the track in Sparta, Ky. Smith said he will meet next week with Kentucky governor Steve Beshear to start finding some solutions. Smith absorbed some of the blame, but stopped well short of saying there was more the track could have done to avoid the problem. He blamed everyone from the company running parking (“they did a lousy job”), to I71 (“a lousy piece of interstate”), to the fans who were warned about the trouble ahead but still left late. “When I tell you we will fix it, I hope that you believe me,” Smith said Friday at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. NASCAR President Mike Helton called the traffic a “very serious issue” that must be corrected, adding that NASCAR “won’t rest” until it figures out what went wrong and how to correct it. Many fans say once they got to the gate, they were turned away by police because the track had run out of parking. “We’re sorry for the fans that were touched by that unfortunate episode,” Helton said. “We will not let this fall to the wayside until we get resolution to it.” Helton said there were numerous meetings with track officials and other organizations, and he was confident a proper plan was in

Mike Helton is concerned about the traffic at Kentucky speedway. place. Kentucky Speedway had held Truck Series and Nationwide Series races in the past without the massive congestion on I-71. The state spent millions of dollars over the last decade to improve the infrastructure around the venue in hopes of one day getting a Cup date. Yet widening the interstate to three lanes for a couple of miles heading north to Cincinnati did little to expedite traffic. “Ten lanes wide, everybody would have been in there,” Smith said. Helton has not talked to any Kentucky government officials since Saturday afternoon. “What I think we have an interest in is finding out exactly what happened Saturday night. Did all those changes contribute to that and did it really maybe compound the situation,” Helton said. “Was there overconfidence from the fact they had raced there for 10 years and not taken in full consideration of the physical changes that were taking place. Those are the kind of questions we’ll have to get to the bottom of to figure out the solution.” Kentucky Speedway on Monday offered a ticket exchange to fans who missed the race because of the traffic. Speedway Motorsports Inc. president Marcus Smith said fans can swap their unused Kentucky tickets for entry into events at any 2011 race at an SMI track. The tickets also can be swapped for entry into the 2012 race at Kentucky. “I know that we all work on a common goal of making the experience for race fans” appealing, Helton said. “Along the way, we have hiccups.”

LOUDON, N.H. — Jimmie Johnson has a pair of titles he’s especially proud to have linked to his name. NASCAR champion. AP Male Athlete of the Year. Yes, that’s right. The five-time champion driver is an athlete, too. Johnson was swept into a brief Twitter feud this week because of his inclusion as a nominee for male athlete of the year at the ESPY Awards. Seattle Seahawks receiver Golden Tate posted on his account, @ShowtimeTate, “Jimmy johnson up for best athlete???? Um nooo .. Driving a car does not show athleticism.” He continued to tweak Johnson, angering NASCAR fans. Tate later posted, “12th man get these rednecks off me.” Johnson mostly laughed off the barbs Friday at New Hampshire Motor Speedway and invited Tate to the track to learn more about NASCAR. “I think it’s easy to make a comment when you don’t know,” Johnson said. “In a lot of situations, people haven’t been to a race or been close enough to our sport to understand what takes place here.” Johnson often mentions his 2009 AP award, because he’s proud, and because it ran down some stereotypes that drivers shouldn’t be considered athletes. He received a handwritten letter from the grandson of NASCAR founder Bill France that told him how important it was that drivers were considered athletes. “It’s something we have fought for a long time,” Johnson said. Tate believed men in firesuits aren’t qualified to be called athletes like men in shoulder pads. Some of his posts: —”I’ve driven a car on unknown roads at night at 90mph no big deal. No sign of athletism.” —”Guarantee he couldn’t in million year play any SPORT.” —”give me 6 months of training and I bet I could compete.” NASCAR defenders quickly typed in defense of their champion and their slams got Tate’s attention. “Apologies for my offensive comment to NASCAR fans. I actually read up on it and NO I couldn’t race a car 150 mph.” Johnson found humor in the posts, joking that, “I was impersonating an athlete at the ESPYS.”

AssociAted press

NAscAr fans are rallying behind Jimmie Johnson after reading Golden tate’s tweets. Drivers have always defended their spot as true athletes. Detractors claim it’s not that hard to sit and turn left for a few hours. But when other athletes get a taste of NASCAR, they’re often hooked — and give credit that drivers are no less a real athlete than a baseball or football player. “There is just an education process that has to take place across a lot of mediums,” Johnson said. “Through sports, I’m excited to see top athletes come in and see what we do and also go for rides in cars and be around. And when they do, they are our best advocates. They are out there telling the story.”

Rachel Gray, a physician assistant with Salisbury Pediatrics, examines a boy in Haiti while volunteering with Bless Back Worldwide.

Medical mission team travels to Haiti with Bless Back Worldwide BY JOANIE MORRIS For The Salisbury Post

efore planning a mission trip to Haiti with Bless Back Worldwide, Tom Loeblein was content in his life. Beautiful wife, beautiful kids. Amazing job and wonderful church. Then he went to Haiti. “I had never known what nothing was,” said Tom, who called the trip life-changing. “I had never seen nothing before.” Tom, his wife Leigh Ann and one of his daughters, 17year-old Joy, went on the mission trip in May as representatives of Bless Back Worldwide, a group that sends mostly doctors, physician assistants and others in the medical field to places around the world to offer medical expertise and procedures. With the Loebleins went Physician assistant Kelly Carroll meets with a patient.

Loss and grief:

When the landscape changes A

s age creeps up on me, I find myself recalling where things once stood. When I return to my hometown of Hickory to visit family, I habitually tell my sons, “Look! That empty lot is where my elementary school was. I played baseball on this field, before it was weeds and kudzu. That was once a playground with dangerous slides and wobbly monkey bars. Look! This used car lot was a Dairy Queen where I worked as a teenager. I hiked and rode bikes with my friends in these woods before it was a housing development.” Yes, I am quite predictable in recalling where things once stood. I can’t help it. Am I sentimental? No, but I do have bright and colorful memories of my youth KEN and it’s hard not to REED point out what once was: the old HarrisTeeter store where Dad worked when I was born (now a fitness center), the old horse barn (now a dirt pile), the old bowling alley where Mom would send me for chili dogs (now a tire store), and the hospital where I was born. (I’m not really sure what that is now, but it hasn’t been a hospital since the Nixon administration.) When things change around us, changes happen within us. These places are not life-altering for me and do not necessarily make me sentimental. However, they fondly remind me of what once was. As a pastor, I serve congregation members who are very gracious to invite me into the sacred space of their families during times of grief, loss and change. These moments are often filled with trauma and shock or peace and relief (and sometimes all of the above). I consider it an honor and a humbling task to enter a situation with prayer, a reading from the Bible, healing conversation and even silence. Amid the tension there is always a story to tell, and it begins in the past. When have you experienced something like this before? What helped you the most? How did you respond? How did you experience the presence of Christ? When we begin to recall past events, places and people, we have an opportunity recall God’s active presence within the significant parts of our lives. This is more than pointing out the former locations of a school, a baseball field or other childhood stomping ground. But when I seriously ponder those life moments that seem heavy and unholy, I find the holy. Or, more honestly, the holy finds me. At the recent death of an older member, the loving memories of my own grandparents filled my heart. Speaking to grieving grandchildren I shared with them something they already knew: “You will always remember their words, what they looked like, where they stood, and what they did. Treasure those visual reminders and continue to tell those stories. Just as your grandparents were a gift from God, your spoken and unspoken memories of them are a gift of healing from God.” When grief hovers over us or even seems to consume us, the Old Testament Psalms repeatedly call us to remember, remember, remember. Psalm 77, verses 11-13: “I will remember the deeds of the Lord; yes, I will remember your miracles from long ago. I will meditate on all your works and consider all your mighty deeds. Your ways, O God, are holy. What god is so great as our God?” The changing landscape of a new school, job or relationship, retirement, a family move, or even a newly emptied nest can create a strong sense of grief and loss often associated with death. Recalling our experiences and stories presents a needed step for healing. Recalling God’s holy presence in our lives presents a living reminder that God is the source of all life and hope and healing. Truly, that is a great story to tell. • • • The Rev.

But make sure that you don’t get so absorbed and exhausted in taking care of all your day-by-day obligations that you lose track of the time and doze off, oblivious to God. The night is about over, dawn is about to break. Be up and awake to what God is doing! God is putting the finishing touches on the salvation work he began when we first believed. We can’t afford to waste a minute, must not squander these precious daylight hours in frivolity and indulgence, in sleeping around and dissipation, in bickering and grabbing everything in sight. Get out of bed and get dressed! Don’t loiter and linger, waiting until the very last minute. Dress yourselves in Christ, and be up and about! ROMANS 13:11-14 THE MESSAGE

In addition, they attended church services, prayed with the Haitians and “loved on a bunch of children.” While he struggled with the cost at first, Tom said it won’t make him hesitate in the future. “We have a responsibility,” he said. “We’ve been given so much.

“I have just fully realized how much we truly have,” he added. “It changed my whole perspective on life as to what truly is important and what you can live — and what other people do live — without.” To participate in mission trips, Tom recommends starting at home — talk to your church pastor and pray about the decision. If you are unable to go on a trip, consider donating for others to go. “Whether they give $10 or $100 or more, they are making a huge difference in a child’s life over there,” he said. “(They are) sending somebody that’s going to take care of them.” Learn more about Bless Back Worldwide by visiting www.blessbackworldwide.org Contact Joanie Morris at 704-797-4248 or news@salisburypost.com.

Isolated systolic hypertension is common Dear Dr. Gott: I am a 68year-old woman from Africa. My systolic blood pressure is constantly high, but never above 170 or so. With carvedilol/indapamide, it comes down to about 148-150. My diastolic blood pressure, even without medication, never goes above 70 and is usually in the 60s. I am intrigued by why this is so. Apart from this, my generDR. PETER al health is very good to GOTT excellent. I am 5-foot-1 and weigh 130 pounds. I do aerobic/strength/weight exercises for one hour three times a week. My HDL is about 60, my LDL is about 210, and my C-reactive protein is almost nil. My glucose level is usually 100 or below. I do not use salt, rarely eat out, snack on fruits and vegetables (mostly), do not smoke and do not drink excessively (maybe two glasses of wine per week). I do not use a lot of caffeine. I usually drink four cups of tea, half a cup of coffee and 32 ounces of water a day. I still work, and my job as an educational consultant is not that stressful. A long time ago I was told that my heart was larger on the right side, and I’ve wondered if this will have an effect on my blood pressure. My mother had hypertension and diabetes, both of which she controlled with diet for most of her life. She passed away at age 75.

On the other hand, my father was very healthy except for kidney stones and passed away peacefully at the age of 96. Dear Reader: You have a type of hypertension known as isolated systolic hypertension, common in older individuals because artery elasticity is reduced. Systolic pressure is the force blood exerts against arterial walls during contractions of the heart. Diastolic is the pressure exerted between beats. So essentially what is happening is that when your heart contracts, the artery wall doesn’t stretch as much, thus increasing pressure, whereas between contractions, pressure returns to normal. The bottom line? You still have hypertension. You state that your LDL “bad” cholesterol is 210. This is extremely high, since a normal level is 100-129 or lower. I hope that this is simply a mistake and you wrote your total cholesterol level rather than your LDL. If not, I urge you to speak to your physician about possible treatment options, such as niacin, omega-3 fish oil, flaxseed oil, or prescription cholesterol-lowering drugs, statin and non-statin alike. Combined with your hypertension, high cholesterol further increases your risk of heart attack and stroke. Also remember that a diet high in fats such as certain meats, cheeses and other dairy items, snack foods, butter, luncheon meats and more, will raise the LDL level. These food items should be reduced or removed from

your diet. You may benefit from reducing your tea intake. The caffeine in it is quite variable and can raise both systolic and diastolic values. Now about your rightsided heart enlargement: I think you need to be seen by a cardiologist to have this further investigated. While you have had this a “long time,” seemingly without symptoms, it could be an indication of a problem such as pulmonary hypertension. How long is a “long time”? Years? Decades? How long have you had the hypertension? Did the two findings coincide? Without knowing more about your health history, it is impossible for me to say whether your right-sided enlarged heart is to blame — in full or in part — for your hypertension. My feeling is that it isn’t, but I cannot say this with any certainty. Make an appointment with your cardiologist to discuss your concerns. He or she is your best source for answers. Readers who are interested in learning more can order my Health Reports “Understanding Cholesterol,” “Coronary Artery Disease” and “Hypertension” by sending a self-addressed, stamped No. 10 envelope and a $2 U.S. check or money order for each report to Dr. Peter Gott, P.O.

Certain knowledge you’ve acquired through some tough past experiences will be utilized to your advantage more than once in the year ahead. Although the lessons might have been brutal, you’ll be glad you went through them. CANCER (June 21-July 22) — Don’t take on a situation that has caused you concern and aggravation unless you have both the tenacity and patience to finish what you start. You can do it if you have a strong mindset. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — Judgment calls based on carefully evaluated elements will turn out to be right on target, while impulsive decision are likely to turn out to be counterproductive. The choice is yours, and it’s an easy one. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — If you don’t think you must have everything, and only take on material obligations that you know you can handle, your financial affairs will remain in good working order. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — No matter how hard you wish someone else would pitch in and help, don’t hesitate to assume more responsibilities in an important situation that involve others as well as yourself. It’ll pay off. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — Finish what you already began before taking on any new assignments. If you attempt more than you can handle, you could botch up the entire works and have nothing to show for it. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — Be smart and don’t get involved with anyone who has a habit of talking about others in a negative fashion. Be above it all and go your own way if that’s what it takes. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Objectives of a material nature could be gratified as long as you don’t get greedy and try to grab more than your share. To succeed, you must be fair as well as smart. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — When in the company of persons whose intelligence you respect and admire, be a good listener instead of a talker. You already know what you know, so stay mum and learn more. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) — As long as your expectations do not exceed what you deserve, certain commercial arrangements could produce some good benefits. Don’t be grabby or greedy. ARIES (March 21-April 19) — When in a partnership arrangement, trust your counterpart and don’t try to do everything yourself. The situation will blossom when you show you have faith in your colleague. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — As long as you don’t get wild with your ideas, you should be able to gratify more than a few of your ambitions. Keep things within reason, and you’ll experience success. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — If a project requires some kind of patchwork repairs, make the adjustments without going wild on new ideas. Be disciplined and stay within the boundaries, and you’ll do well. UNITED FEATURE SYNDICATE

A defense to test almost anyone tricks, West must have the jack. Also, speed is of the essence. If, for example, East cashes the spade ace at trick two, South will discard dummy's diamond six on his spade jack. After a diamond to the jack and queen, declarer will draw trumps and play a spade. But East wins with his ace and shifts to the club seven (high to deny an honor). West takes his ace and returns a diamond to get those five tricks for the defense. Note finally that if West leads the spade three, East will assume his partner has the jack and — fatally — take his king and ace.

Computers play bridge poorly because there is unknown information — the hidden cards. In this deal, for example, a computer program would struggle to defeat three hearts. But, to be fair, so would many humans. What should West lead? How should East plan the defense? North was right to make a takeout double over two spades. And neither East nor West had any reason to bid a second time. (Even two spades could be defeated.) It would be abnormal for West not to start with a spade. However, since he raised spades, he should choose the seven, top of nothing, to warn East that he does not have a spade honor. East, after taking the

City Atlanta Atlantic City Baltimore Billings Boston Chicago Cleveland Dallas Denver Detroit Fairbanks Indianapolis

Wet weather continues in the Northern US, while high heat returns to the Plains and Midwest on Saturday. A low pressure system moving through Canada will continue pushing a trough of low pressure through the Northern US. The system will bring more showers and thunderstorms to the Northern Plains and Upper Midwest, with a chance of severe storms developing over the Dakotas and Nebraska. At the same time, a ridge of high pressure will build into the Plains from the South. This ridge will stretch northward over the Southern and Central Plains, and advance eastward towards the Mississippi River Valley. Clockwise flow around this system will push warm air into the Central US from the deserts of the Southwest and northern Mexico, bringing another hot day to the region. Heat advisories will remain in effect as high temperatures will reach into the 90s across the Northern Plains, and into the 100s in the Southern and Central Plains, as well as the Mid-Mississippi River Valley. Heat indicies will range from 100 to 110 degrees for the center of the nation, thus, heat advisories remain in effect. In the Southeast, a persistent frontal boundary continues to hover over the Gulf Coast. The warm and moist air from the Gulf will continue feeding energy into this front, which will trigger more scattered showers and thunderstorms from eastern Texas to the Mid-Atlantic States. Temperatures will cool slightly with highs in the 80s and 90s expected for the Gulf states. Meanwhile out West, a trough of low pressure hovers just of the West Coast, and brings seasonably cool day to the Western US. The system will push moisture onshore, creating coastal clouds down the entire West Coast, with a few rain showers in the Pacific Northwest.

Create an oasis for warm weather entertaining

The key is planning ahead so the landscaping, patios and porches are ready for any backyard bash - then just a few quick touches will create the party atmosphere. Here are some easy tips you can use on your grass, gardens, balconies and patios this summer to help get them ready for entertaining: * Pruning - Dead branches on trees and bushes can be removed at any time of year. Early in the season, take some time to remove any dead materials, which will not only enhance the look of your landscaping, but also give trees and bushes a chance to grow and fill in around the removed branches. Be careful, and do not prune branches on flowering shrubs. * Planting - Visit a local greenhouse or nursery and select several colorful flower varieties. Many annual flowering plants like pansies, marigolds and impatiens require minimal care and add a beautiful pop of color to the scenery. Outline the fence of an outdoor space with flowerbeds or try hanging flowering boxes off the side of fences and

rails. Adorn the porch or walkway with pots overflowing with color. Even if the only outdoor area is a stoop, balcony or patio, think of the area as a mini-entertainment space: Try adding hanging baskets, table top gardens or grouping a few containers together to create mini gardens in a sunny corner. Don’t forget - all plants need to be fed to thrive. Make feeding part of the routine by using Miracle-Gro LiquaFeed. Attach the LiquaFeed Feeder to your garden hose, insert the refill bottle, and spray to instantly feed while you water. Feed every seven to 14 days. This will ensure plants stay looking their best all season long.

* Mulching - For a nice, finished look, layer your flowerbeds and container gardens with Nature Scapes Advanced Mulch. A 3-inch layer naturally prevents weeds by blocking growth and access to sunlight. Nature Scapes also has a one-year color guarantee, helps prevent water run-off and channels the water evenly to the roots of the plants. Mulch can save time and energy by preventing weeds from growing in your flowerbeds. * Feed the grass - No matter how beautiful your trees, bushes and flowerbeds are, if your grass isn’t thick, green and comfortable for bare feet, your outdoor space could use a touch more help. Feed your lawn with Scotts Green Max Lawn Fertilizer which combines iron with fertilizer to give your grass good nutrients and greening power. And it’s guaranteed to not burn your lawn. Apply a couple of weeks early to ensure you have the perfect grass suitable for bare feet dashing through a sprinkler at

a birthday party or for a blanket picnic on Fourth of July weekend.

* Furniture - As you’re planning your party, determine what kind of backyard furniture you may need for your guests. Do you have enough patio and lawn furniture, or will you need to rent chairs? You can also ask your neighbors or friends if they have decorative benches you can borrow and mix into your flowerbeds to keep the beauty of your landscaping intact for the party. Your old furniture can be refreshed and repurposed too. A nice coat of paint can perk up the old and make it feel new again. New pillows can add a splash of color to the party scene while increasing the comfort level as well. * Light the way - Never underestimate lighting. No need to spend a lot of money to achieve a well-lit entertaining space either. A great party atmosphere can be easily accomplished by the use of a few candles in jars placed on the tables, some decorative solar lights staked into flower pots or a string of twinkle lights woven into the branches of trees. Lighting sets the mood and can accent your beautiful lawn, garden or balcony with minimal effort creating a memorable experience for guests. With just a little effort, you can have the backyard your friends and neighbors envy, and your parties will be relished for many years to come.

(ARA) - The warmer months provide numerous opportunities for hosting outdoor events: birthday parties, Father’s Day barbecues, graduation celebrations, backyard campouts, weddings or a gathering for watching fireworks on the Fourth of July - the list is endless. Even when just hosting a fun neighborhood picnic or ice cream social, it’s important to get the outdoor living space looking its best for the big day.

For 15 months they'd been trying, unsuccessfully, to sell a home they'd inherited on Polo Rd. First, they tried to sell it themselves, and then, for a year, they used a well known real estate firm. Finally, they gave us a call. We met and suggested a number of things they should do to increase the probability of their home selling in this tough market. They did everything we suggested and then, we developed a customized marketing plan for their home--not the typical cookie cutter plan--and placed it on the market. Soon we had it under contract for 95% of the asking price. Shortly before the sale was to close, the buyer purchased a new car. Unfortunately, this changed her credit ratios causing her loan to fall through. So, we had to put the home back on the market. Again we were successful in finding a buyer. This time, the sale went through as scheduled. We're pleased we could help Dean and Ned sell their home. Perhaps you know someone who is thinking about buying or selling a home and might benefit from our advice. If so, have them give us a call so we can help them, too. Why take a chance with anyone else?

BUSINESS HIGHLIGHTS Rupert Murdoch accepted the resignation of The Wall Street Journal’s publisher and the chief of his British operations on Friday as the once-defiant media mogul struggled to control an escalating phone hacking scandal with apologies to the public and the family of a murdered schoolgirl. The scandal has knocked billions off the value of Murdoch’s News Corp., scuttled his ambitions to take control of lucrative British Sky Broadcasting, withered his political power in Britain — and is threatening to destabilize his globe-spanning business. Les Hinton, chief executive of the Murdoch-owned Dow Jones & Co. and publisher of the Wall Street Journal, announced he was resigning, effective immediately. Murdoch’s British lieutenant, Rebekah Brooks, also stepped down. Horror stories are flying about the damage that might be wreaked should Congress and President Barack Obama fail to cut a deal by the Aug. 2 deadline to increase America’s borrowing limit. Nearly every American is in harm’s way. The government would find itself tight on cash and unable to borrow — and

have to start deciding which of the 80 million bills due in August it should pay and which it should put off. A late rally Friday prevented the stock market from having its worst week in nearly a year. Investors seemed to largely ignore the ongoing debate in Washington over raising the country’s borrowing limit. The Dow Jones industrial average added 42.61, or 0.3 percent, to 12,479.73. The Nasdaq composite rose 27.13, or 1 percent, to 2,789.80. The Standard and Poor’s 500 stock index finished with a gain of 7.27, or 0.6 percent, to 1,316.14. Carl Icahn made an unusual offer to buy Clorox Co. this week, presenting himself almost as a disinterested bidder and encouraging the company to try to find a better offer. The billionaire hedge fund manager sent a letter to Clorox CEO Don Knauss offering to pay $76.50 per share in cash, according to a regulatory filing Friday. That’s a 12 percent premium to Thursday’s closing price. Clorox shares leapt Friday on the news. However, Icahn seemed more interested in drumming up another buyer.

HOUSTON — Jeff Karstens pitched a five-hitter and Andrew McCutchen tripled and drove in two runs as surging Pittsburgh opened the second half of the season with a 4-0 victory over Houston on Friday night. Karstens (8-4) needed just 83 pitches to become the first Pirate to win five straight decisions in a season since Matt Capps in 2006. He has an ERA of 2.34 this year, and had gone 3-0 with an 0.41 ERA against the Astros. Houston starter Brett Myers (3-10) allowed five hits and three runs while striking out a season-high 11 in six innings in his fourth consecutive loss. McCutchen’s two-run triple to center field came in the third inning and made it 3-0. McCutchen has 10 RBIs in his last five games. The Astros dropped their fifth straight and were shut out for the fifth time. Phillies 7, Mets 2 NEW YORK — John Mayberry Jr. drove in five runs to set another career best and Vance Worley pitched well enough for Philadelphia. Mayberry singled and doubled with the bases loaded. It marked the second straight game where he established a personal high in RBIs. Reds 6, Cardinals 5 CINCINNATI — Brandon Phillips hit a two-run homer off Fernando Salas with two outs in the ninth inning to rally Cincinnati in the NL Central rivalry. Phillips connected on the second pitch from Salas (5-3) for his second career game-ending homer. St. Louis went up 5-4 in the eighth on Al-

philadelphia’s raul ibanez makes a lunging catch on Friday night to rob New York’s ruben tejada of a base hit. bert Pujols’ two-run homer off Aroldis Chapman. Chris Heisey hit two solo homers for the Reds and robbed Pujols of one in the first inning, snatching his flyball from the top of the wall in center. Johnny Cueto protected the 2-0 lead into the seventh inning. Braves 11, Nationals 1 ATLANTA — Martin Prado had two hits, including a homer, in his return from five weeks on the disabled list and Atlanta earned the 10,000th win in franchise history.

He has won four straight decisions. Freddie Freeman drove in three runs with two hits, including a two-run double in the seventh.

Morrow stays tough on bump for Jays

Brewers rework K-Rod’s deal

TORONTO — Brandon Morrow won his fourth straight decision and Yunel Escobar had three hits as Toronto roughed up New York again for its fifth straight win, 7-1 on Friday night. Morrow (6-4) has not lost since June 11 against Boston, and is 4-0 with a 2.68 ERA in his past six starts. He allowed one run and four hits in 62⁄3 innings, walked two and struck out six. Jason Frasor, Toronto’s third reliever, pitched around three singles in the ninth as the Blue Jays evened their record at 4747. Frasor made his 452nd appearance for Toronto, tying Duane Ward for first on the franchise’s career list. Rays 9, Red Sox 6 ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — All-Star David Price pitched six solid innings and Ben Zobrist hit his fifth career grand slam as Tampa Bay snapped first-place Boston’s six-game winning streak. Price (9-7) allowed five hits — three solo homers — while striking out seven and walking one in his first outing since giving up Derek Jeter’s 3,000th hit at Yankee Stadium last week.

DENVER (AP) — The Milwaukee Brewers and newly acquired reliever Francisco Rodriguez have reworked his contract to alter the terms of a $17.5 million option for next year. The Brewers said Friday the sides agreed to change an option for next season from one that would have vested once Rodriguez finished 55 games to a straight mutual option. If both sides don’t agree to exercise the option then Rodriguez will get a $4 million buyout, an increase from $3.5 million. Rodriguez was acquired from the New York Mets following Tuesday’s All-Star game in exchange for cash and two players to be named. He already had finished 34 games with the Mets, leaving him 21 games shy of fulfilling the vesting requirement when he was dealt to Milwaukee. With the contract revision, Brewers manager Ron Roenicke said before Friday’s game at Colorado that he feels no limitations in how he can bring Rodriguez out of the bullpen. “From my point of view and that of the staff, it will be nicer on us,” he said. “These things, these contracts, most of the time a manager doesn’t know about them so you don’t have to worry about anything. But when it’s so public and I knew exactly all the numbers, it’s just not comfortable.” Also, Rodriguez, who wore No. 75 in his first game with Milwaukee on Thursday, switched his jersey number Friday to 57, which he wore as a member of the Angels. 

SAN DIEGO (AP) — The San Francisco Giants have hired former Washington Nationals manager Jim Riggleman as a special assignment scout. The move came less than a month after Riggleman abruptly resigned as Nationals manager.

The switch-hitting Zobrist homered from the right side off Andrew Miller (3-1) in the second, breaking the franchise record for grand slams he shared with Carlos Pena. Zobrist drove in a fifth run when he drew a bases-loaded walk from the left side of the plate against reliever Alfredo Aceves, making it 7-2 in the third. Indians 6, Orioles 5 BALTIMORE — Asdrubal Cabrera and Grady Sizemore homered and Lonnie Chisenhall singled in the tiebreaking run in the sixth inning, as Cleveland extended Baltimore’s losing streak to nine games — matching Buck Showalter’s longest skid as a major league manager. Michael Brantley had three hits for the Indians, who improved to 5-0 against Baltimore this season. Matt Wieters, Nolan Reimold and Adam Jones homered for the Orioles, who reached their season high for consecutive losses and dropped to 1-14 in their last 15 games. Baltimore’s Vlad Guerrero is out with a hand injury. The only other time Showalter lost nine straight during his 13-year career as a manager

was in 2003, with Texas. Cleveland went ahead for good in the sixth against Jim Johnson (5-3) when Matt LaPorta doubled and Chisenhall lined an RBI single to right. White Sox 8, Tigers 2 DETROIT — Chicago’s Gavin Floyd allowed six hits into the eighth inning to outpitch Justin Verlander. Carlos Quentin had three hits and three RBIs for the White Sox, who scored four runs off Verlander in the third inning — more than the Detroit ace had allowed in any start since May 24. Verlander (12-5) threw six innings, his shortest outing since that same date. Miguel Cabrera hit a two-run homer for Detroit in the fourth, and later added a single for his 1,500th career hit. Verlander allowed five runs — four earned — and seven hits. He walked two and struck out six. Royals 2, Twins 1 MINNEAPOLIS — Eric Hosmer hit a two-run homer in the top of the ninth inning for Kansas City, reliever Matt Capps’ seventh blown save this season to match the major league lead. Capps (2-5) was booed mild-

ly after Melky Cabrera’s leadoff four-pitch walk and loudly after Hosmer’s drive to straightaway center. Capps couldn’t hold the lead in a save situation for the seventh time in 22 tries, tying Carlos Marmol of the Chicago Cubs for most in the majors. Tim Collins (4-4) pitched a scoreless eighth for the win, the first by the Royals in their last six games against the Twins, and Joakim Soria escaped a jam in the ninth for his 16th save. Twins starter Nick Blackburn gave up four hits and two walks in seven shutout innings. Royals starter Luke Hochevar went seven innings and allowed three hits. Aardsma needs Tommy John SEATTLE — Mariners reliever David Aardsma is done for the 2011 season and likely longer after an MRI determined the closer needs Tommy John surgery on his right elbow. The Mariners announced Aardsma’s diagnosis on Friday night. He is scheduled for surgery late next week to be performed by Dr. Lewis Yocum. Aardsma has missed the entire 2011 season. He was first sidelined by offseason surgery on his left hip.
