Five schools meet tougher standards None in Kannapolis reach Adequate Yearly Progress goals BY SARAH CAMPBELL scampbell@salisburypost.com
SALISBURY — Five of the Rowan-Salisbury School System’s 35 schools met Adequate Yearly Progress, the reading and mathematics accountability standard required
under the federal No Child Left Behind Act. That’s down from 18 schools that met the standard last year, but district officials say the results can’t be compared because tougher performance standards put in place this year led to fewer schools meeting the goals. “This is a transitional year and therefore, the AYP results cannot be compared with results from previous years,” Rowan-Salisbury Superintendent Dr. Judy Grissom said in a press release.

DO DOLLAR COINS MAKE SENSE? ALISBURY — Food Lion co-founder Ralph Ketner grew a company partly on building efficiencies into the culture and cutting out waste. So you can imagine Ketner’s jaw dropping to the floor recently when he heard the Federal Reserve wants to spend $650,000 for a new vault in Dallas, so it has room for the presidential $1 coins that no MARK one seems to be WINEKA using. Not only that, shipping all the extra $1 coins to the new facility would cost an additional $3 million. If the U.S. Mint continues to make the $1 coins, as it is scheduled to do for the next five years, the Federal Reserve will have $2 billion in excess dollar coins, according to a government report. Ketner’s solution is pretty simple: Kill the program and stop minting the nearly 2 million presidential coins daily. He has dashed off a letter to U.S. Rep. Howard Coble, RN.C., asking him to support a bill aimed at halting the program, which began issuing the presidential $1 coins in 2007. “How stupid can we be to mint millions of these coins that citizens refuse to accept, and yet Congress refuses to ‘stop the presses,’ ” Ketner told Coble. “... PLEASE DO SOMETHING!!!” Ketner resorted to those capitalized words and exclamation points for emphasis. Coin collectors have known for a long time about the oversupply of presidential dollar coins, created by the 2005 law, the Presidential $1 Coin Act. (Apparently, there is an oversupply of $1 Native American coins, too.) The Federal Reserve’s Board of Governors in June released a report saying that few people want or use the coins, making the demand for them quite low. Duh.
are Title I schools. China Grove, Granite Quarry, Hurley, Knollwood, Mt. Ulla and North Rowan elementary schools along with Kannapolis’ Forest Park Elementary will enter School Improvement. The schools will have to offer special tutoring services and school choice, which allows students to transfer to another school. School choice will not be offered in Kannapolis because no other schools made AYP.

Chief won’t detail what violations led to action BY NATHAN HARDIN nhardin@salisburypost.com

Presidential dollars, which are slightly larger then a quarter, have not been quite as popular as backers in the federal government had hoped.
“How stupid can we be to mint millions of these coins that citizens refuse to accept, and yet Congress refuses to ‘stop the presses.’ ” RALPH KETNER in a letter to Rep. Howard Coble, R-N.C.
“To this day, cashiers at some retail stores still do not realize the coins are legal tender,” Louis Golino wrote Monday for the CoinWeek website, “and because businesses have the right not to accept certain forms of payments, such as bags of pennies, some do not even accept the coins.” Golino added that many vending machines and parking meters have not been upgraded to accept dollar coins, and when most people receive them as change — which doesn’t happen often — they tend to save them.
On Facebook, Jerrie Neale Peeler told me, “I don’t use them, but I collect them. I am behind in my collection right now.” Elizabeth Turneabe said she loves the $1 coins, “but everyone saves them!” Some $1.25 billion in coins are sitting in Federal Reserve vaults right now. From the 2005 legislation, banks are required to order new series of the coins during an introductory period. (Four new presidential $1 coins come out every year.) Because no one
seems to like or use them, banks end up redepositing about 40 percent of the coins after the mandatory period. Golino, the CoinWeek writer, says before people go screaming about the waste of taxpayer dollars, they should remember that no taxpayer money is used to fund the U.S. Mint, which is set up as a public enterprise fund receiving no annual appropriations. As I do with most topics connected to money, I turned to my family for answers. They are expert spenders. “It’s too much like a quarter,” my wife explained of the $1 coin’s failure to catch on. And there’s a lot of truth in that, except that the presidential coins are gold not silver. Still, they are only slightly bigger than a quarter, and we apparently would rather fold bills
SALISBURY — A Salisbury Police Department evidence custodian has been fired after an investigation found “procedural and policy violations,” Chief Rory Collins said in a press release Thursday. Jeffrey Emerson was placed on leave May 27 during an investigation into “allegations of cash accounting irregularities within the department’s evidence storage area,” the press release said. Collins has previously declined to discuss the amount of money missing. The release states that an internal audit and investigation took place after Emerson was placed on leave. The review, conducted by authorities from outside the Salisbury Police Department, uncovered the violations. “As a result of these findings, Mr. Emerson’s employment with the Salisbury Police Department has been terminated,” Collins wrote. An SBI investigation to determine whether there was any criminal wrongdoing in the case is ongoing, Collins said. That investigation was requested by Collins and Rowan County District Attorney Brandy Cook. Emerson had been a civilian employee at the department since 1997. He was appointed to an evidence custodian position in 2006. Collins said Thursday he would not comment further on the matter at this time. Cook also declined to comment, citing the ongoing SBI investigation. Emerson could not be reached for comment Thursday. Contact reporter Nathan Hardin at 704-7974246.

Heat advisory issued as temperatures, humidity rise SALISBURY — With temperatures expected to approach 100 degrees today, the National Weather Service has issued a heat advisory that begins at noon today and lasts through 8 p.m. The high temperature will combine with humidity to make it feel as hot as 105, the weather service said. That could mean danger for people who work outside and people who don’t have air conditioning. High temperatures will also be in the upper 90s Saturday and Sunday. The agency advises people to take extra precautions if they work or spend time outside. When possible, reschedule strenuous activities to the early morning or evening.

Wear lightweight and loose-fitting clothing when possible and drink plenty of water. To reduce risk during outdoor work, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration recommends scheduling frequent rest breaks in shaded or air-conditioned areas. Anyone overcome by heat should be moved to a cool and shaded location. If someone suffers heat exhaustion or heat stroke, call 911. To help older residents who don’t have air conditioning, Rufty-Holmes Senior Center is continuing its summer fan giveaway program. The program, which began in June and runs through the end of August, has given out more than 230 box fans so far and has

To be eligible for a free fan, recipients must be: Rowan County residents; over the age of 60; have a specific need for a fan, such as having no air conditioning or in need of supplemental air movement for health reasons.

SALISBURY — A Knollwood Elementary School teacher’s assistant has been found guilty of misdemeanor assault on a handicapped person stemming from an incident involving a student in the program for exceptional children. In April, Janet Pence, 42, of 190 Morning Glory Lane, Cleveland, was arrested after a child, Mary Bolton, then 8, went home with bruises on her leg, police reports said. Mary is autistic and nonverbal, but the marks confirmed to her parents, Teresa and Shane, that something had happened to her. Mary was lying on the floor of the classroom when she was grabbed by her leg and “yanked across the floor,” court documents said. Pence pleaded no contest to the charges and was found guilty last week in Rowan County Superior Court. She was given 12 months of su-

The percentage of students in each subgroup that must pass end-of-grade and end-ofcourse tests for the school to make AYP has increased. (See the box above for a detailed description of the changes.) Kannapolis Superintendent Dr. Pam Cain said she’s pleased with the higher standards. “We have set the bar high for ourselves in Kannapolis City Schools,” she said. “One of our strategic goals is to have at least 90 percent of our students at grade level by 2015; that’s even higher than these new AYP targets.” The tougher standards are part of the move toward 100 percent proficiency in reading and math by 2013-14. “This all or nothing structure of the federal law guarantees that we will see an increasing number of schools missing the elusive met AYP designation,” State Superintendent June Atkinson said in a press release. “I continue to believe that this method of labeling schools is unfair and unrealistic because there is no recognition of schools that are making significant progress and performing well with nearly all of their students.” Dr. Janet Jenkins, director of student assessment for Kannapolis schools, agrees. “When it gets to 100 percent, it’s almost irrational,” she said. “When schools miss their goals by just one, they are deemed to be unsuccessful and that’s just not true.” Jenkins compared AYP goals to that of a business.
from 1a Knox Middle and North Rowan High are the only schools in the Rowan-Salisbury district to miss AYP every year since measuring began in 2003. Faith Elementary has met AYP every year. This is the first year Kannapolis’ Fred L. Wilson Elementary did not meet AYP. Bostian, Isenberg and Mt. Ulla elementary schools missed AYP by a single goal this year. Cleveland Elementary, Shive Elementary, West Rowan Middle, West Rowan High and Henderson Independent missed AYP by two goals.

AYP is often referred to as the “all or nothing” measure because it requires 100 percent of a school’s subgroups to reach required performance goals in reading and math. Subgroups include the school as a whole, racial categories, economically disadvantaged students, students with limited English proficiency and children with disabilities. Schools with diverse populations have more subgroups and therefore must meet a higher number of AYP goals. School officials said fewer schools met AYP this year as the result of stricter performance standards.
Not many schools across state make the grade under new standards RALEIGH (AP) — North Carolina parents digging into the latest data about their child’s school may have found a disquieting surprise Thursday — many of the state’s 2,500 public schools failed to meet the grade for adequate yearly progress. The state’s 115 local school districts released information required by the decade-old federal No Child Left Behind law to measure the reading and mathematics abilities of students every year. Statewide totals won’t be available for two weeks, but the preliminary schoolhouse data show fewer than three of 10 Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools met the targets set for them in the academic year that concluded in June. Fewer than one in seven Wake County schools met their mark. More than half of the state’s 99 charter schools missed targets, double the number that failed to meet them last year. The reasons behind the failing grades have generated

For a school to make AYP in 2010-11, 71.6 percent of students in each subgroup in grades 3-8 must be proficient in reading and 88.6 percent must be proficient in mathematics. For 10th graders, 69.3 percent of each subgroup must be proficient in reading and 84.2 percent must be proficient in mathematics. In comparison, in 2009-10, the AYP targets for elementary and middle school (grades 3-8) were 43.2 percent in reading and 77.2 percent proficient in mathematics. For 10th graders, the targets were 38.5 percent proficient in reading and 68.4 percent proficient in mathematics.

“If a business sets 29 goals for themselves in one year and they make all those goals except one, they would be ecstatic.” Jenkins said she hopes the negative connotation associated with missing AYP will not affect how people view schools. “AYP focuses more on the negative than the positive,” she said. “Educators have known that we would reach this point that basically the bar was so high that it would look as if we weren’t doing our jobs when in reality we are.”
Improving test scores Both districts said they will keep working to make sure students are proficient in reading and math. “Our district continues to struggle, along with most other school systems, in meeting targets for certain subgroups,” Grissom said. “In spite of these challenges, the Rowan-Salisbury School System is committed to doing whatever it takes to make sure our students perform to

But Cain said adequate resources are needed to ensure student success. “Cutting budgets at the same time standards are being raised is not a good combination and we hope legislators will find a way to increase funding for public education very soon,” she said.

New book illustrates Spencer Shops’ history SPENCER — A new pictorial history features more than 200 vintage images of Southern Railway’s Spencer Shops, from its beginning to the final days in the 1970s. Once Southern Railway’s largest repair facility between Washington and Atlanta, Spencer Shops has been transformed today into the N.C. Transportation History Museum. The book will be available Aug. 8 at local bookstores, independent retailers, online retailers and through its publisher, Arcadia Publishing. Retail price is $21.99. Larry K. Neal Jr., chief of museum operations and education at Spencer Shops, authored the publication, which also includes a foreword by Jim Wrinn, editor of “Trains” magazine. According to a press release from Arcadia, “Southern Railway’s Historic Spencer Shops” covers through images the creation of Spencer Shops and the town of Spencer, steam and diesel locomotive repair and operation, the people of Spencer Shops and the operation’s final years. “This book tells the story of how Spencer Shops came to be, its role in transportation and its continued use today as a N.C. historic site,” Arcadia says in the press release. “The trains that the shop prepared were hauling everyday freight — Appalachian lumber, Piedmont textiles and perishables — or were famous passenger trains like the Crescent, the Peach Queen and many more. Others were more notable, such as the locomotive in the folk ballad ‘The Wreck of the Old 97’ or President Roosevelt’s funeral train in 1945.” Spencer Shops operated for roughly 80 years, from the late 1800s to its closure in 1979. For much of that period, it was Rowan County’s largest employer. The shop complex and its accompanying yards, transfer sheds and stockyards comprised a major economic engine for the region. Photographs for this book come from numerous sources, including the N.C. Division of Archives and History, Rowan Museum Inc., J. Marvin Black, Marvin Rogers, Vernon Lane, Patsy McBride, Bill Rabon and June Pryor. Photographers who shot many of the images include David P. Driscoll, C.K. Marsh and David Patton. “Southern Railway’s Historic Spencer Shops” is part of Arcadia’s “Images of America” series, which since its launch in 1993 has aimed at preserving and sharing histories of hundreds of communities in the country. The series has expanded through the years to include regional historical topics, examining things such as transportation, industry, architecture and ethnic groups. “Southern Railway’s Historic Spencer Shops,” $21.99, Arcadia Publishing.

Privacy case against hospital reopened BY EMILY FORD eford@salisburypost.com
“southern railway’s historic spencer shops” will be available Aug. 8 for $21.99.
SALISBURY — The federal government has reopened an investigation into the violation of patient privacy rights at Rowan Regional Medical Center. This marks the third time the case has been investigated within two years. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office for Civil Rights closed the original investigation Jan. 3 after the hospital agreed to undergo voluntary corrective action. The case was reopened a few weeks later. After an investigation, the Office for Civil Rights closed the case with a finding of “insufficient evidence/no violation,” according to Rachel Seeger, spokeswoman for the federal office. Recently, the case was reopened once again. Seeger said investigators are interviewing additional witnesses but gave no other details. The Office for Civil Rights is unable to discuss specifics of an open investigation, she said. She expects the investigation to close soon, Seeger said. “I think it was a case of more evidence coming forward,” attorney Richard Rutledge Jr. of WinstonSalem said. Rutledge represents Jennifer Alexander, a former Rowan Regional patient who filed a HIPAA Privacy Rule complaint in August 2010 against the hospital. HIPAA is the federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act. Alexander alleged that Rowan Regional inappropriately used and disclosed her protected health information and a hospital employee harassed her and her family. After the original investigation, the Office for Civil Rights found no violation of patient privacy rights. But due to evidence gathered during the investigation, Rowan Regional employees in the departments implicated in the complaint underwent training on safeguarding medical records and confidentiality. The Office for Civil Rights did not disclose what evidence led to the hospital’s voluntary corrective action or what departments were implicated. In response to the new investigation, hospital President Dari Caldwell said Thursday Rowan Regional is looking into the allegations. “We are addressing the complaint internally with our privacy office,” she said. In addition to the HIPAA Privacy Rule complaint, Alexander also filed a civil lawsuit in 2010 against the hospital, Novant Health and two hospital employees for negligence, defamation, slander and invasion of privacy. The lawsuit is in the discovery phase, which is expected to continue for several months, Rutledge said. The case has been held open into next year. Contact reporter Emily Ford at 704-797-4264.
A photo in the book shows that replacing a locomotive drive tire was a hot process. First, the old tire was heating using a fire ring until it was red hot. the old tire was removed, and the new tire, also preheated, was pressed into place. once cooled, the new tire would be locked into place due to the metal tightening around the rim.

Lutheran Services for the Aging
SALISBURY — In 1991, Bob Evans began having difficulty using his left arm. Now, after 20 years and a diagnosis of Parkinson’s disease, Bob’s wife, Katharina, is his full time caregiver. “People just don’t realize the strain,” said 76year-old Katharina Evans. “Some days you’re tired, you don’t feel well, but you go on. I haven’t felt this kind of stress since Bob was in Vietnam. He did two tours and I was alone caring for our three boys. This is just as stressful. It is like being a parent again except you are so much older. I praise the Lord for giving me the strength and the help we have received from the program.” That’s the Family Caregiver Support Program, which has provided in-home respite for the Evans family as well as caregiver education for Katharina. It was through the program that Katharina first heard about Abundant Living Adult Day Services and learned that group respite was available to her and to Bob through the Veterans Administration. Lutheran Services for the Aging is now the Rowan County agency administering the N.C. Family Caregiver Support Program, which is funded by the National Family Caregiver Support Program. Established in 2000, the program provides states with grant monies to help caregivers care for their loved ones at home for as long as possible. “Taking care of someone can bring great joy and satisfaction,” said Mary Ann Johnson, Lutheran Services’ director of community relations. “But it can also be difficult. The FCSP supports families and informal caregivers who are trying their best, but need a little help.” That help comes in the form of a wide-range of services for eligible family caregivers avail-

Police: Woman solicits prostitution for gas money BY NATHAN HARDIN nhardin@salisburypost.com
SALISBURY — Two people were cited early Tuesday after police say a woman solicited prostitution for gas money. According to the Rowan County Sheriff’s Office, William Boger, 31, dropped his girlfriend Christopher May Riddle, 33, off at a Wilco-Hess service station just off exit 71 on Interstate 85. The report said police responded to calls about the solicitation. Authorities stopped Boger near the service station. RIDDLE According to deputies, Boger said the couple spent the week looking for work in Charlotte. He told police they were robbed and their money and credit cards were taken. Boger told police, according to the report, that Riddle told him to drop her off and she would “get some money.” He said he didn’t know how. Riddle was later found by deputies under the I85 overpass at Peeler Road. According to the report, she told deputies she and Boger were low on gas. The report said Riddle planned to get the money for fuel “in exchange for a sexual favor.” Riddle told police she was meeting a “trucker named John,” who was a friend. She told police he had previously given her gas money. Riddle was cited for loitering with the purpose of engaging in prostitution. Boger was cited for misdemeanor aiding and abetting.

SALISBURY — A car caught on fire on East Innes Street Thursday morning. Amber Shue, the car’s driver, was on her way to work when she said another driver got her attention and told her the burgundy Mazda CX-7 was on fire. Firefighters “used the fire extinguisher, but that didn’t work. They had to pry the hood open,” Shue said. Shue said Thursday was her first day driving the vehicle since getting it back from a Cabarrus County garage. Shue declined to give the name of the garage. “I just got the fuel line fixed that ran to the engine,” she said.

Fort Bragg soldier gives birth to 2 boys, 2 girls at base FORT BRAGG (AP) — A Cumberland County woman has given birth to quadruplets, the first set of four babies to be born at Fort Bragg’s Womack Army Medical Center. WRAL-TV reported that two girls, Lilly Ann and Emma Lynn, and two boys, Ethan and Nick Jr., were born last Friday to Sgt. Athena Rose and her husband, Sgt. 1st Class Nick Rose, both active duty soldiers at Fort Bragg.

Katharina Evans provides assistance to her husband, Bob. Evans family. When first told about Abundant Living, Katharina didn’t even consider it. “I was sure Bob would never go,” she said. “But they encouraged us to try it and I was shocked! From that first day he loved it! He likes them, they like him, and I know he is well cared for there.” While Bob is at Abundant Living, Katharina rests, cleans house, “piddles” in her flower garden, schedules her own doctor appointments or spends time with friends. Like other caregivers, she has one goal: to keep her 82year-old husband at home as long as possible. “There’s so little he can do for himself. Sometimes I feel I become sharp and aggravated with him. I don’t want to ever do that. The program is a godsend. I don’t even want to think about what life would be like without it.” Barbara Garwood, director of Lutheran Services’ Abundant Living Adult Day Services, is leading the program.

able at little or no cost, and includes everything from information and referral services to in-home and group respite. The Family Caregiver Support Program also offers services to grandparents caring for grandchildren. According to Johnson, studies consistently show that such support services can alleviate caregiver stress, depression, and anxiety, enabling caregivers to provide care at home longer. “The FCSP cares for the caregiver. That little bit of extra support can often help families postpone or prevent assisted living or nursing home placement,” she said. Until 2009, when Lutheran Services for the Aging launched its geriatric care management services, the organization’s focus had been on residential services such as those offered at Trinity Oaks and Lutheran Home at Trinity Oaks, and on adult day care at Abundant Living Adult Day Services. The organization calls this program another step in its efforts to respond to the community’s needs. “We want area citizens to age happily and safely in whatever place they call home,” Johnson said. “We are very excited to have the opportunity to help make that happen.” The Family Caregiver Support Program was previously administered by the now-defunct Rowan Senior Services. Rufty-Holmes Senior Services and Rowan County Social Services supported Lutheran Services for the Aging in its efforts to administer the program. “For decades, Lutheran Services for the Aging has been helping seniors live a more abundant life,” Rowan County Social Services Director Sandra Wilkes said. “Lutheran Services for the Aging is well-positioned to become the lead agency for the Family Caregiver Support Program. The program complements other services that have long been provided very successfully by LSA.” It’s been a godsend for the

From farm to table
Cooperative Extension program shows how agriculture affects daily life ach summer, the N.C. Cooperative Extension offers a variety of classes, workshops and tours through the 4-H Summer Fun Program. Youth in third through sixth grades learned how agriculture impacts their daily life through the Farm to Table day camp. Farm to Table was held June 27 through July 1. Each day brought a different experience. On Monday, particiSARA pants created DRAKE a pizza garden with tomato, basil and oregano plants in a container garden to take home. We discussed how each part of the pizza comes from a different agricultural product. In the afternoon, Family and Consumer Science Agent Toi Degree helped them make their own pizza using the fresh herbs from our garden. Youth made homegrown play dough and played play dough pictionary to wrap up the day. Tuesday was designated as our “Grower’s Day,” where youth visited local farms to see vegetables in production. We visited Pat-

County Extension Director Darrell Blackwelder shared his knowledge with the group while we toured the fields. The “Market Day” began with a visit to the Salisbury Farmers Market where youth visited with the vendors and made some purchases of their own. They also worked in teams to complete a farmers market scavenger hunt. We then traveled to a Pinetop Farm, a local blueberry and Christmas tree farm, to pick blueberries. After picking the blueberries, we returned to the extension office to make blueberry muffins
with Toi Degree. That afternoon, the group was able to tour Harris Teeter. While there, youth learned more about the produce, meat and bakery departments. Thursday was spent at N.C. Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services Piedmont Research Station. While there, youth were able to watch the dairy cows being milked and tour the fields of corn, other small grains and horticulture crops. Brad Johnson, livestock and dairy agent, and Scott Tilley, field crop agent, led the tour. Following the tour, youth were able to taste test various dairy products ranging

Upon returning to the office, we were able to make ice cream in a bag. The final day, youth competed in an Agriculture Olympics and made their own Farm to Table lunch, completed with grilled hamburgers, grilled corn on the cob, grilled vegetables, fruit
and yogurt parfaits and zucchini strudel for dessert. During the afternoon, we made our own butter and whipped cream, had a taste test of lamb and different cuts of beef and tried our hand at dairy quiz bowl, buzzing in to answer dairyrelated questions. For more information con-

Shuttle era comes to an end
WASHINGTON (AP) — House Speaker John Boehner predicted Thursday that a majority of House Republicans will end up supporting some kind of compromise to avoid a government default. Democrats insisted that higher tax revenue be part of a deal. White House budget chief Jacob Lew told reporters that “I’m unaware of a deal” between President Barack Obama and congressional Republicans and he repeated that “we’ve made clear revenues have to be included.” Some reports had Obama and Boehner, ROhio, near an agreement on a grand bargain trading $3 trillion or so in spending cuts and a promise of $1 trillion in tax revenues through a later overhaul of the tax code.

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) — The space shuttle passed into history Thursday, the words “wheels stop” crackling over the cockpit radio for the very last time. In an almost anticlimactic end to the 30year-old program, Atlantis and its four astronauts glided to a ghostly landing in near-darkness after one last visit to the International Space Station, completing the 135th and final shuttle flight. It was a moment of both triumph and melancholy. “I saw grown men and grown women crying today — tears of joy to be sure,” said launch director Mike Leinbach. “Human emotions came out on the runway today, and you couldn’t suppress them.” Now the spaceship and the two other surviving shuttles will become museum pieces, like the Mercury, Gemini and Apollo capsules and the Wright brothers’ flying machine before them. NASA astronauts, a dwindling breed, will have to hitch rides to the space station aboard Russian Soyuz capsules for at least three to five years. And thousands more shuttle workers will lose their jobs, beginning with a round of layoffs today.

Gasoline guillotine
The lyme disease threat Better education and reporting needed BY DAVE TIERNEY For the Salisbury Post
orget jobs. Forget the debt limit. What’s hurting this country right now is the unabated assault on consumers’ wallets by the oil companies. The U.S. economy is not going to improve substantially until the price of gasoline stabilizes at a reasonable level. The past week has been another nightmare at the pumps. After reaching a “low” of about $3.38 a gallon in June, gas prices have jumped back up. Crude oil has increased by 18-19 cents per gallon, according to the American Petroleum Institute, and gasoline followed. Yet we find ourselves paying 30 cents more per galjon c. lakey/salisbury POst ancient history: 2005 lon, not 19 cents. The gas prices seemed bad national retail average for gasoline is at the time. now $3.689 per gallon, according to AAA, Wright Express and Oil Price Information Service. This is not the jobless recovery; it is the oil company recovery. World petroleum prices may be beyond the companies’ control, and speculators play a role, but it’s hard to think of oil companies as victims when Exxon Mobil reports first-quarter earnings that are 69 percent higher than a year ago. Companies in other industries may have even better results — Apple, for example, saw second-quarter profits increase 95 percent — but they don’t sell a commodity that people have to have, either directly or indirectly. You don’t need an iPod to drive yourself to work. The city bus doesn’t need an iPad to carry you to your doctor’s appointment. Politicians talk about energy independence and point the finger at OPEC. There’s even been some rationalizing about all the pension funds and retirement accounts that oil company earnings boost — as if to suggest high gasoline prices are good for us. All we know is the more we have to pay for gas, the less we have to spend for food and other necessities. Gasoline is a necessity. You’d think the oil companies would recognize the anger they are fomenting and back off. They believe we unsophisticated consumers don’t understand the pricing dynamics. They might as well say, “Let them eat cake.” We understand all too well. The oil company board members and executives are out of touch. They need to understand that the American public is not in a passive mood. Voters may eventually push lawmakers to step in — not an ideal solution. But brace yourself for more of the same. The Energy Information Administration expects higher costs for crude oil to push gasoline prices up an average of 82 cents per gallon this year, compared to last, and another 7 cents in 2012. That’s no way to fuel a recovery.

Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak … courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen — Sir Winston Churchill
hen my husband and I moved into our house beside the railroad tracks on Bear Poplar Road, we were sometimes teased we lived on the wrong side of the tracks. I must tell you now, we are not on the wrong side because our property is on both sides. Living here for 27 years has been interesting, as we have witnessed many unusual events. The first event happened about 25 years ago and was kind of funny. One summer afternoon I heard a knock at my front door. When I DICY looked out the MCCULLOUGH window, I saw a car parked at the edge of the yard. I opened the door, and a man said, “Ma’am, do you mind if I get my boat back?” I looked at him thinking he was a little confused. I didn’t have his boat, or know anything about his boat. He then explained, “You see, ma’am, when I came across the railroad tracks my boat came loose from the hitch and went across your yard.” Little did I know, at the time, the boat barely missed the corner of my house. The man pointed to the side of the house, so I went around the corner to take a look. There sat his boat in my backyard under the apple tree. I couldn’t help but laugh. Of course, the poor guy wasn’t laughing. I felt sorry for him, so I let him have his boat back. Another event happened a few years after the boat incident. It was a Saturday morning, and I noticed a train had stopped at the crossing. About 10 minutes after that, I heard a knock at the door. I knew it was probably something relating to the train, and sure enough, the engineer asked to use my telephone. I thought to myself, “There’s something wrong with this picture.” I know what you must be thinking. I’m going to let a stranger in my house? What else was I going to do? This was before cell phones, and I couldn’t let the train sit on the tracks forever. So, I let the engineer use the phone. He thanked me, and then he went to wait in his train until help arrived. Unfortunately, people have been killed at this crossing, but I’m happy to say that’s not happened since the lights and arms were put in place. Before they were installed, there was one close call I remember like yesterday. My two daughters were playing outside, and I was in the den reading the newspaper. I could see out the window and noticed the train had stopped. Kristin and Kelly came running in the house yelling, “We almost had hamburger in our yard.” My neighbor later told me the rest of the story. A truck was coming down the road at the same time the train was blowing its whistle, but the driver didn’t hear. A neighbor, Darcy Myers Ward, was walking down the road and saw the truck wasn’t slowing down, so she began waving her arms, screaming, “Train! Train!” The truck driver slammed on the brakes, coming to a stop about two inches from the train. The engineer stopped, too, because he thought he had hit the truck. Darcy saved not only the truck driver’s life, but also the cows he was pulling. The man thanked Darcy for saving his life and took her family out for a meal. The railroad has been an important part of our nation’s past, and it seems will be an important part of the future. Even though most trains passing by my door are freight trains, it’s still kind of a romantic notion to think about where they have been and where they are going. Occasionally, there are passenger trains, and for a shared moment as they pass by, there’s a connection, and then they’ re on their way. Perhaps living beside a railroad track is not something you envision for your family, but for us it’s just right. Someday, I may actually buy a ticket and take a train ride. I hear the ride to the mountains in the fall is beautiful. • • • Dicy McCullough, a writer and poet, lives in Rowan County. Contact her at 704-278-4377 or at dicymcculloughbooks.com.

yme disease is now fully acknowledged by the North Carolina Public Health Department to occur throughout our state. Inaccuracies in media stories that claim to use factual data are frequent when reporting on this disease. One reason may be that many health officials in the TIERNEY past have downplayed Lyme disease in North Carolina. The article “Tick bites pose summer hazard,” published in the July 13 Salisbury Post, had several errors I would like to correct. In addition, I present additional Lyme disease information valid for North Carolina. • Until late 2008, N.C. health officials stated that Lyme disease is rare in the state and that the EM (erythema migrans) rash normally associated with Lyme disease was actually from a lookalike disease called STARI (Southern Tick Associated Rash Illness). • The article stated that the last breakdown for North Carolina counties in a fiveyear period reported only 20 cases of Lyme disease. But the actual number of Lyme disease cases reported to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) for 2006-2010 from North Carolina was 321 cases (N.C. Health and Human Services submissions), with a grand total of 1,573 for the state from 1990-2010. • The last reported case of Lyme disease in Rowan County was not in 2003, as stated in the article, but in 2008, when one case was confirmed, two cases were listed as “proba-
L
ble” and two additional cases were listed as “suspect.” (Both confirmed and “probable” cases are reported to the CDC.) • In 2007, the U.S. Navy published a report stating that Marines and sailors from Camp Lejeune Marine Base had 51 reported cases of Lyme disease from 1996-2006. This was the highest number from any Navy or Marine base used in the study and covering all of their military bases within the United States. • The state’s official guidance on Lyme disease, sent out to physicians in 2011 from the chief epidemiologist for North Carolina, instructs doctors to look for Lyme disease in patients presenting with tick exposure history and compatible symptoms. Current references in the guidance are under revision, as they may cause confusion by referring to a document that tells physicians a positive laboratory test result is most likely a false positive and recommending that no testing take place under some circumstances. This reference is outdated, causes under-diagnosis and under-reporting, especially in a state that has recently reversed its position on Lyme disease occurrence, says it encourages Lyme disease awareness and already has one county classified as “endemic” for Lyme (Wake County). (Note: Phone contact with Dr. Megan Davies, the state epidemiologist, indicates this reference is under consideration for modification as of July 20.) According to Dr. Maricia Herman-Giddens, the president of a non-profit organization called Tick-borne Infections Council of North Carolina, “Lyme disease is the most frequently reported tickborne disease in the U.S., not RMSF (Rocky Mountain spotted fever). Cases meeting re-
porting (surveillance) requirements are generally the tip of the iceberg as far as representing the actual number of cases. Surveillance requirements meet a high standard and do not represent the actual number of cases. In addition, though certain tickborne infections are supposed to be reported by law, many medical providers do not always do this.” All of this means that Lyme disease is both underreported and under-recognized by both physicians and residents. Publications that cite reported numbers do not reflect the true risk or occurrences in residents who are actually treated for a tick disease, notably Lyme. Proper reporting will improve if officials adapt a pro-active awareness message directed to both residents and physicians alike. Our health care officials, the media and local governments can do a better job of educating physicians and residents and on providing uniform guidance on Lyme disease. North Carolina should have one standard Lyme disease message statement that encourages tick-borne disease awareness, education and facilitates for the proper diagnosis. Using a reference document that tells physicians a “positive test result is most likely a false positive” is viewed by this author as sending the wrong message to physicians and all North Carolina residents. • • • Lt. Col. Dave Tierney (USMC-retired) lives in Cary. He is a pilot with Delta Air Lines who was misdiagnosed with multiple sclerosis before being treated for late-stage Lyme disease in 2007. He is a patient advocate for increasing lyme disease awareness and education.
‘Repeal and replace’ retreated Scripps Howard News Service
hen Republicans took over the House in January, it seemed all you heard was the chant, “Repeal and replace.” It was a surefire applause getter at Republican gatherings. But, as Jennifer Haberkorn reported in Politico, “Six months later, they hardly talk publicly about those plans at all. And they’re nowhere close to ‘replacing’ the law.” After repeated attempts earlier in the year, in the last seven weeks House Republicans haven’t held a floor vote on a bill or amendment trying to “repeal, defund or even nick the law,” she writes. And the legislative year is more than half over. In fact, the only change to the law was repeal of tax reporting requirement for business that both sides and the White House agreed was too onerous. Why in July has the steam almost completely gone out of an issue that was so boiling hot at the start of the year? One reason may be the passage of time. President Barack Obama signed the Affordable Health Care Act — notice that its critics are less and less calling it “Obamacare” — and the sky hasn’t fallen. To the fury of the more zealous GOP backbenchers, the House leadership is less and less inclined to waste time and energy on health care revisions that face certain death in the Senate.
W
The White House bet heavily that as people became familiar with the law they would embrace some of its provisions and to some extent they have — companies must offer the same premium to all applicants, they cannot deny coverage because of pre-existing conditions or place caps on lifetime coverage. Repeal of these measures, along with an improved prescription drug benefit, would not be at all popular. The House Republicans’ proposed budget showed what they would replace the health care act — a slow phase out of Medicare in favor of vouchers to buy insurance on the private market. That proved to be unpopular, so unpopular that the people who disliked it most, those over 55, wouldn’t have been affected by the change. Republican state attorneys general and conservative lean-
ing groups have challenged the bill in court with indifferent results. Perhaps a telling indication of the fate of the challenge in the Supreme Court was a 2-1 decision upholding the law’s constitutionality by an appeals court in Cincinnati where the deciding vote was cast, accompanied by a strong concurring opinion, by Judge Jeffrey Sutton, a George W. Bush appointee, former clerk to Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia and member of the Federalist Society. Finally, all the oxygen in the House and Senate chamber has been sucked up by the battle over the debt ceiling and spending cuts. “Repeal and replace” now seems so far away, more like an echo than a battle cry.

into our wallets than have dollar coins jangling in our pants pockets. If I’m not mistaken, Canada went to $1 coins a long time ago, and euros come in $1 and $2 coin denominations. My oldest son, Sam, traveled extensively through Europe, like many college kids do. “While it has been a few years,� said Sam, now 25, “I do remember thinking while I was over there that coins made much more sense. Once you’re acclimated to using them it’s much easier.� He said he also noticed that European men’s wallets often include a small pouch for coins. Sam suggested that might be a reason U.S. men have been slow to adapt. “(We) certainly don’t want to appear unmanly with our change purses,� he said. Sam now works in Washington, D.C., where the Metro kiosks will give you change in the $1 coins. “I personally avoid them because they can add up to a big, jangling pocket,� he said, “but if I do end up with some, I just try and spend them as soon as possible. I guess they don’t particularly bother me, but I prefer bills.� I conducted a mini-experiment of my own Thursday morning. I walked into the downtown Wachovia and F&M banks and asked tellers at each location for $5 worth of presidential $1 coins. They quickly met my request, and even tried to give me as many different dead presidents as they could. (A president has to be dead to be commemorated on the $1 coins). I now have 10 fairly shiny $1 coins on my desk, and I’m wondering what to do with
pervised probation. Mary’s mother, Teresa, said the family is glad the ordeal is over. “We’re happy that it’s been resolved and that this won’t happen again. We hope she gets the help she needs,� she said. Bolton also said she feels the school needs to provide better training for assistants. She also suggested that schools consider using cameras in the classroom. The court file includes a picture of Mary’s legs with

obvious bruising, scratches and other red marks. Bolton said in a letter addressed to District Attorney Brandy Cook sent via Sheriff’s Detective Clint Mauldin that her daughter has been severely traumatized from this ordeal. A copy of the letter, which was written in May, was contained in the court file and includes a request from the parents that Pence not receive a lighter sentence through a plea bargain. Since the incident, Mary, now 9, has “difficulty trusting others,� the letter said. Mary’s doctor said the abuse or intimidation had been ongoing for an extended
period, the letter said. “Mary has been so affected that she does not want to spend time with anyone outside of our home, including her grandmother, whom she normally adores,� the letter said. The child wakes up in the middle of the night and runs for comfort in her parents’ bed. The Boltons said Pence was supposed to be in a classroom with the door open, but when the others returned, the door was closed and Mary was crying. “This did not have to occur,� the couple said. The file also contained various letters from friends, co-
workers, Scout leaders and ministers sharing kind words about Pence. Pence resigned from the position after being arrested. She was arrested two days after the offense was alleged to have happened. Judge Brent Cloninger also ordered Pence to have a psychiatric evaluation, abide by and pay for anger management assessment, have no contact with Mary, and complete 24 hours of community service. Pence also has to pay court costs, fines and fees which total $432. Pence did not return a phone call from the Post. Contact reporter Shavonne Potts at 704-797-4253.

them. I noticed that our softdrink vending machine on the third-floor break room says “Deposit nickels, dimes and quarters.� No mention of $1 coins. If it’s any consolation to Ketner, the $1 coins were actually meant to save money. Dollar coins last longer — 30 years or more, as compared to dollar bills, which wear out in an average of 21 months. Even if they cost more to produce, the $1 coins make that up several times over, just through longevity. Past government studies determined that replacing dollar bills with dollar coins would save the government $500 million to $1 billion a year. But for Americans to accept $1 coins and begin using them will take a decision no one in Washington has the guts to make: Stop printing dollar bills. You’d be surprised how quickly we would adapt to spending $1 coins. Meanwhile, I have 10 dead presidents staring at me. Contact Mark Wineka at 704-797-4263, or mwineka@ salisburypost.com.

SEC football New coach Will Muschamp takes over at Florida/3B
DURHAM — North Carolina coach Butch Davis plans to release his personal cell phone records to media outlets covering the NCAA investigation of the school’s football program. The school had previously released records in June showing only few calls from Davis’ office and university-issued cell phone in 2009 and 2010. That prompted reporters to request records for any personal devices used for school business. Speaking after the Pigskin Preview preseason luncheon with area coaches, Davis said the university had already reviewed records for a cell phone he’s had for about 10 years and that he intended to release them with the
numbers for personal calls redacted. “Anything that has absolutely anything to do with UNC and business, those will certainly be completely open for public record,” Davis said. Davis didn’t specify exactly when he’d release the records and said he didn’t know if the NCAA had reviewed them. Thursday’s comments marked the first time Davis had spoken with reporters since the NCAA sent the school a notice last month alleging numerous major violations, though none directly linked to Davis himself. The coach found himself in an almost identical situation at last year’s Pigskin Preview, where he publicly answered questions for the first time after the NCAA began an investigation into improper benefits.

Rowan wants morning glory Staff report
AssociAted press
Butch davis will have to release his personal cell phone records to media outlets.
The Rowan County Legion baseball team is in a familiar setting: the state tournament. Whether Jim Gantt’s team has some morning glory left will decided quickly as Rowan (23-8) opens the tournament in Morehead City today at 10 a.m. Its foe is Wayne County (25-5), the same team Rowan battled in 2002, 2007 and 2008. Rowan comes in on a two-game losing streak, falling in the Area III championship series to High Point. It will be up to Thomas Allen to bring Rowan back. He has the best record on the team (6-0) and the second-best ERA (2.72). If Rowan wins this morning, it will face the Hickory-Wilmington winner at 4:30 p.m. on Saturday. If Rowan loses, it will have another 10 a.m. start. The tournament is scheduled to end on Tuesday. If Rowan advances, it would go the Southeast Regional in Sumter, S.C. Aug. 4-8.
NFL LOCKOUT
Still locked NFL owners approve CBA, players yet to vote on new deal BY PAUL NEWBERRY Associated Press
COLLEGE PARK, Ga. — NFL owners overwhelmingly approved a tentative agreement Thursday that would end the lockout, provided that players re-establish their union and sign off on the proposal. But the players didn’t vote, leaving the country’s most popular sport in limbo for at least another day. Owners and players failed to see eye-to-eye on much of anything for months, so perhaps the way Thursday’s events unfolded shouldn’t have come as a surprise. At about 7 p.m., owners voted 31-0 — the Oakland Raiders abstained — to OK the deal, pending players’ approval. Soon after, the league issued a press release announcing: “NFL clubs approved today the terms of a comprehensive settlement of litigation and a new 10-year collective bargaining agreement with the NFL Players Association.” Less than an hour later, NFLPA head DeMaurice Smith sent an email to team reps saying: “Issues that need to be collectively bargained remain open; other issues, such as workers’ compensation, economic issues and end of deal terms, remain unresolved. There is no agreement between the NFL and the players at this time.” And then the players held a conference call and decided not to take a vote, saying they had not seen the full proposal approved by owners. Commissioner Roger Goodell spoke on the phone several times Thursday with Smith, including filling him in on the results of the vote before it was announced. “Hopefully, we can all work quickly, expeditiously, to get this agreement done,” Goodell said AssociAted press

That’s what everybody here wants to do.” But several players took to Twitter, expressing opposition to the proposal. Pittsburgh Steelers safety Ryan Clark wrote: “The owners want u to believe that they have been extremely fair everywhere and this is their ‘olive branch’ to finalize it.” The four-month lockout is the NFL’s first work stoppage since 1987. As a result of it, the exhibition opener was canceled — the Aug. 7 Hall of Fame game between Chicago and St. Louis in Canton, Ohio. “The time was just too short,” Goodell said. “Unfortunately, we’re not going to be able to play the game this year.” Providing players eventually approve the agreement, team facilities would open Saturday, and the new league year would begin Wednesday.

He was taken to for an MRI. It’s the same wrist on which he sustained a deep bone bruise after running into the center-field wall on July 3. He missed eight games. “He obviously felt something,” Rockies manager Jim Tracy said. “He took a swing and started coming over towards us in a hurry. I have no idea what were dealing with other than the fact that it’s the wrist that we just rehabbed.” Rockies starter Jhoulys Chacin struggled for the second straight game, allowing five runs on four hits and walking seven in 4 2-3 innings.

Will Muschamp is entering his first year at Florida.
Muschamp to mix old, new at Florida Associated Press
HOOVER, Ala. — The typical formula for a new college football coach is simple: Break down the program, implement new philosophies and then hope those changes turn into newfound success. For Will Muschamp, there’s one problem with that blueprint: He didn’t take over the typical college football program. The 39-year-old firsttime head coach grabbed one of the sport’s plum jobs when he was hired to lead Florida. Though the Gators finished with a 8-5 record last season, they won two out of the past six national championships under Urban Meyer, and still have plenty of talent on the roster. “If it’s not broke, don’t fix it,” Muschamp said at SEC Media Days on Wednesday. “Urban did a phenomenal job, he and his staff. They did some great things that we’re going to continue to do. Why change ‘em if they’re working?” While Muschamp had plenty of praise for Meyer, he brings his own philosophy. The former defensive coordinator is making that side of the ball his own, tweaking the things he sees necessary. He’s also hired former Notre Dame coach and NFL coordinator Charlie Weis to oversee the offense. Muschamp spent most of the past decade as defen-
sive coordinator at LSU, Auburn and Texas, and intends to keep most of his focus on stopping the other team. His intensity and demonstrative nature on the sidelines has been well documented — with television cameras sometimes showing him chest-bumping players after a particularly big play. “The worst thing you can do in a leadership position is be something you’re not...” Muschamp said. “I hired Charlie to run the offense. I’ve got great confidence in what he’s going to do and what we want to be offensively.” Muschamp was quick to say that senior John Brantley would be the team’s quarterback. Brantley’s junior season was mixed — at best — in an offense that never seemed to fit him comfortably. He completed 60.8 percent of his passes for 2,061 yards, nine touchdowns and 10 interceptions, but Meyer’s lack of confidence was obvious as Brantley’s playing time diminished toward the end of the season. Muschamp and Weis don’t seem to have the same issues. “With the new coaching staff, everyone’s got a clean slate,” Brantley said. “Personally, it’s been good for me.” Weis specializes in running a pro-style offense, having success as offensive coordinator of the New England Patriots and later the Kansas City Chiefs.

Friday, July 22 Conditions tend to look more hopeful for you in the year ahead than they have for quite some time. In fact, you could start to enjoy some victories and advancement in the very areas where you previously experienced disappointment. Cancer (June 21-July 22) — Something material that starts out to be rather small could quickly transform itself into being enormous. This might involve a purchase or an investment of some kind that you make. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Something over which you have no control could turn out to be much better than you dared hope. Do what you can to make the most of it, the moment you hear about it. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Lady Luck must like you, because she’s arranging for you to take part in something that is pretty special. It’s an arrangement that is already producing positive results. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — Don’t hesitate to join any type of collective endeavor, whether it’s just getting involved with friends for an outing or investing in a joint undertaking. You’ll be fortunate in such activities. Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — Act immediately on any bright ideas you get regarding ways to further your ambitions and aspirations. Your perceptions will be worthy of prompt and pervasive action. Sagittarius (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — Regardless of what the odds are, think “win” on your participation in a competitive involvement. It doesn’t matter if what you are doing is a sport, a romance or a business deal. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Don’t hesitate to move things around a bit if you think it would help better your lot in life. Any changes you make at this time could have excellent, far-reaching results. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — Because your thoughts are likely to be focused on what you can do to please others, companions will find you a most delightful person to be around and do things with. Pisces (Feb. 20-March 20) — It pays to be observant about economic and/or career opportunities. Something quite substantial could come out of a participation in one or both of these areas. Aries (March 21-April 19) — Don’t hesitate to speak up and suggest something fun to do over the weekend. Chances are your ideas will be better than most, and will be ones that everyone would enjoy doing. Taurus (April 20-May 20) — Normally most financial tips you get aren’t that spectacular, but someone might share some information with you that few are privy to. At the least, it’s worthy of investigation. Gemini (May 21-June 20) — It isn’t unusual for you to sometimes enjoy involvements that are more verbal than physical, so getting together with friends for a long-winded chat could be just the ticket.

Itchy ear canals respond to doctor’s recommended home treatment
Which suit should you play first? BY PHILLIP ALDER United Feature Syndicate
Friedrich Nietzsche said, “The advantage of a bad memory is that one enjoys several times the same good things for the first time.” The disadvantage of a bad memory is that one makes the same mistake again and thinks it was for the first time. Some players would make a mistake in this deal and perhaps not realize they had erred. How do those players declare in three no-trump and what should they have done? The first trick goes heart seven, two, jack, queen. With a low doubleton and just enough points for game, use Stayman. If North-South had a 4-4 spade fit, four spades
would often be a better contract than three no-trump. South starts with five top tricks: two spades, two hearts (given trick one) and one diamond. And looking at those lovely diamonds, many players would immediately take a diamond finesse. However, when the finesse loses and a heart comes back, suddenly the contract has no chance. With only eight winners, declarer must play a club, but West takes the trick and cashes one heart winner too many. Yes, it is unlucky that hearts are 5-3, the diamond finesse loses, and West has the club ace, but South erred. At trick two, he should have played a club. Suppose West takes the trick and leads a heart. Declar-

ter from the parent of a mentally ill adult daughter who wrote to you. The daughter was hospitalized but refused to allow the parent to be involved in her care. Your response was good, but there was one bit of information you might have suggested that could be enormously helpful to the parent and daughter. Although the daughter’s caregivers cannot legally provide information to the parent, they are not prevented from hearing background information provided by the parent. When family members to whom I could not give information called me, I explained that I could not even confirm or deny that I was seeing the patient, but if they had something they wanted to tell me, I would certainly listen. It was always useful to hear how things appeared from the family’s standpoint. The young woman in question may have compelling reasons for not wanting her par-

tempt to keep them clean. There’s a well-known expression that a person should not put anything into an ear smaller than an elbow! You will likely do more harm than good. Instead, I recommend you pour a small amount of the alcohol/vinegar mixture directly into your ear, let it sit for a few seconds, then drain the liquid. I have received several letters and emails recommending various combinations of rubbing alcohol and white vinegar. The most common mixture ratio is 50/50. My only concern is that overuse may dry the ear canals and cause increased itching, so I’d suggest limiting use to no more than twice a day during treatment. Dear Dr. Gott: I read the let-

the problem most of the time. Dear Reader: Cotton swabs shouldn’t be used to clean the ear canals. They can push wax further into the ear, damaging the eardrum. I believe millions of people currently use cotton swabs to clean their ears, despite package warnings that they shouldn’t be used that way. All it takes is one slip of the hand for potentially serious or permanent damage to be done. Even if that doesn’t occur, wax that is pushed further into the ear can build up over time and cause pain, reduced hearing or hearing loss, or lead to infection — all of which require a doctor’s appointment. The ears are designed to drain wax out naturally; don’t mess with them by shoving in small, fluffy things, in an at-

Dear Dr. Gott: You heard from a reader with extreme itching of the ear canals. I, too, had this problem and tried anything to relieve it. My doctor suggested taking a new bottle of rubbing alcohol, removing two tablespoons of it and replacing with two taDR. PETER itblespoons of GOTT white vinegar. I apply it with a cotton swab that I use to clean my ears and haven’t had the itching since. I used it with itching in my bellybutton, and it cleared that up as well.

The Eastern US will remain hot and humid on Friday, while multiple areas of active weather pop up over most of the country. A ridge of high pressure will continue to move slowly eastward bringing hot and humid conditions throughout the eastern half of the country. Temperatures will reach over 100 degrees, with heat indices between 105 and 115 degrees. Meanwhile, a cold front will move through the Ohio Valley and Mid-Atlantic, in combination with the high humidity, triggering scattered showers and thunderstorms. In the South, the rotation of a high pressure system will push warm, moist air onshore triggering showers through the South and Southeast. These showers will remain moderate to light throughout the day, with the strongest storms expected over southern Florida. A trough of low pressure will move off the Rockies into the Northern Plains and push a frontal boundary through the region and the Upper Midwest. This boundary will trigger heavy showers and possible severe thunderstorms. Heavy downpours and strong winds will be associated with these storms with possible flash flooding over North Dakota and Minnesota. To the west, monsoon moisture will persist across the Southwest, bringing scattered showers and thunderstorms to the Four Corners region, Central Rockies, and into the Central High Plains. Meanwhile, the West Coast will continue to stay cooler than normal with sunny and dry conditions. Low clouds and patchy fog is expected on the California coastline during the morning hours.

From staff reports
Salisbury’s Kevin Lentz shot a torrid 62 at McCanless on Wednesday, one shot off the course record. Lentz had eight birdies and 10 pars on a very tidy scorecard. His previous best round was 66, which he’s shot three times. Lentz was playing with Shane Benfield (who shot a 66) and Chris Shackleford. Salisbury’s Troy Beaver shot 70 (32 on the back nine) at Sapona Country Club on Thursday and qualified for the Carolinas Junior Championship. Beaver tied for second place, two shots off the pace. A round of 76 was needed to advance. China Grove’s Davis Richards shot 79. Elliot Gealy (Salisbury) shot 75 in Thursday’s first round of the $800,000 Nationwide Children’s Hospital Invitational being played in Columbus, Ohio.

Youth baseball The Rowan 9-10 all-stars fell 11-8 to Durham in six innings on Tuesday at Brevard despite out-hitting their opponents 14 to 8. Rowan bounced back Wednesday to beat Greenville 12-8 in the doubleelimination event. Rowan advanced to the championship game but needed to beat Durham twice to win the state title. The East Rowan 11U all-stars finished second in the state with an 11-6 record. East finished the Invitational Tournament in Statesville with a 2-1 record, the District Tournament in Randolph County with a 3-2 record and the state tournament in Yadkin County with a 6-3 record. East was the National League champion, while Yadkin County was the American League champion. East fell to Yadkin County in the championship game on Wednesday. The team played nine games in five days in the state tournament. There were 12 teams in the tournament. East Rowan finished third in the state in 2010, playing the most games with 18, and played the most games
HALL OF FAME FROM 1B won the league’s Sixth Man of the Year Award. Brown, who died in 2007, was a brilliant high school guard for dominant Price and Boyden basketball teams in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Playing for coach Fred Evans, Brown averaged 11.7 points as a Price sophomore. After that, he was a star for two seasons at Boyden, which became known as Salisbury High in 1971. Brown averaged a modest 9.0 points per game during his junior and senior years at Boyden, but his generalship and floor play brought out the best in Hall of Famers such as Charles Lynn and Kenny Holt, and those two teams went 50-2 under coach Bob Pharr. Boyden’s 1969-70 team went undefeated, and Brown closed his prep career with 33 straight victories. Reunited with Lynn at Catawba, Brown scored 1, 350 points for the Indians, played on two 20-game winners for coach Sam Moir and PHARR earned all-conference honors in 1974. Brown’s coaching career included stops at Davidson and Florida. He was inducted into the Catawba Hall of Fame in 2005. Pharr competed in basketball and volleyball at North Rowan, but she found her niche in track and field. She may be the most distinguished performer the county has ever produced in that sport. She represented the USA in meets in Norway and Chile. Twice the Rowan County Athlete of the Year, Pharr led North to an impressive string of track state championships. She was MVP of the 2A girls outdoor track meet every season from 1998-2001 as well as the 2000 state indoor meet for all classifica-
this year with 17. Team members are Matthew Kimrey, Matthew Messina, Colby Myrick, Paiton File, Sean Perry, Brycen Holshouser, Trey Dry, William Peeler, John Owen, Chase Earnhardt, Logan Ridenhour and Jake Kepley. Coaches were Lane Kepley, Travis Ridenhour, David Earnhardt, David Owen and Rob Dry. Supporters included Genesis Health Care-Salisbury Center, Fiberon Decking, Curt’s Boat and Ski Club, Dr. Norman Nakaji, Castaways and Hendrix BBQ.
Minor leagues The Seattle Mariners sent Kyle Seager (NW Cabarrus) back to Triple A Tacoma on Thursday. Seager went 3-for-22 in seven games with the Mariners. Hudson Valley’s Craige Lyerly (East Rowan, Catawba) hit his first homer of the season on Thursday in an 8-7 loss to Staten Island. Lyerly homered leading off the second inning. It was the third homer of his two-year pro career. Albuquerque’s Jerry Sands (Catawba) homered in his first at-bat in Thurs- LYERLY day’s game against Oklahoma City. It was a blast to center field and was his 15th homer in 49 Triple A games this season. Kannapolis whacked seven doubles but still lost to Asheville 8-4 on Thursday. Dan Black and Kenneth Gilbert collected two doubles apiece. Bristol’s Keegan Linza (North Rowan) allowed two runs, both unearned — throwing errors were made on two potential double-play balls — in an 8-2 loss to Greeneville on Thursday. Linza struck out one in his inning of work. Linza (0.90 ERA) hasn’t walked a batter yet, and he’s struck out 13 Appy League hitters. Whit Merrifield (Davie) belted his 21st double of the season for Wilmington on Thursday in a 7-5 loss to Myrtle Beach. Wade Moore (West Rowan, Catawba) doubled home a run in Hagerstown’s 3-0 win against Augusta. It was the ninth double for Moore. He has 25 RBIs.
Independent leagues Fargo-Moorhead’s Zach Ward (A.L. Brown) struggled on the mound on Wednesday (six earned runs), but he still got a win in a 15-8 victory against Lincoln. Ward lasted five innings and bumped his record to 4-5. David Thomas (Catawba) hit his fifth triple for Grand Prairie on Wednesday. Thomas is batting .273 with six homers, 51 runs scored, 14 steals and 37 RBIs in 60 games.
tions. Coached by Robert Steele and Bryan Mills, Pharr racked up 12 individual state titles in the 100 hurdles, 300 hurdles, triple jump and long jump. She went on to a fine career at Alabama in the hurdles and jumps and qualified for the nationals. Shatterly was a teacher, coach and athletics director for 33 years in Rowan County. Shatterly was a fixture at North Rowan for two decades and also made a major impact at West Rowan. His wrestling teams won conference championships in four different decades — the 1960s, 1970s, 1980s and 1990s. Shatterly’s 1968 North team went undefeated and won the WNCHSAA championship. He racked up more than 200 victories at North and added another 100-plus wins at West before retiring in 1995. Last May, he was inducted into the National Wrestling Hall of Fame, North Carolina Chapter. Watson coached East Rowan’s girls basketball team from 1969-70 to 1987-88, and his teams won nearly 70 percent of the time. Watson had as much to do with the rise in popularity of girls basketball in the county as anyone. His 324-147 lifetime record ranks him No. 1 alltime — girls or boys — in Rowan prep basketball victories. Watson’s teams won six regularseason conference championships, seven conference tournaments, four Christmas tournaments and the 1974 WNCHSAA championship. A Salisbury native, the late Miller played basketball at Catawba in the 1950s for coach Earl Ruth. He was well-known as a college and high school basketball referee and one of the last to wear high-tops. Miller also was a noted youth baseball coach at the Little League and Pony League levels and performed numerous good works on the board of the Catawba Chiefs. Miller fought a courageous battle against cancer, and his family has established an endowed scholarship at Catawba in his name.
