Commissioners hope to woo Caterpillar into adding 322 jobs locally By BILLY BALL bball@sanfordherald.com

SANFORD — Lee County commissioners approved a handful of incentive agreements Monday, chief among them a $900,000 county grant intended to woo construction

HELEN THOMAS RESIGNS AFTER ISRAEL COMMENTS

Helen Thomas, the opinionated White House correspondent who used her seat in the front row of history to grill 10 presidents and often exasperate them, lost her storied perch Monday in a flap over calling on Israelis to get “out of Palestine”

machinery giant Caterpillar Inc. into a multi-million dollar expansion that could include 322 new local jobs. Caterpillar has yet to decide the location of a targeted $31 million expansion, but Lee officials agreed to front $900,000

to the company if it chooses to make the investment at its already existing facility in the county. The multi-component expansion, which Board of Commissioners Chairman Richard Hayes described as a “biggie”

for Lee County, would also be contingent on the company’s ability to pave a new access road to its Industrial Park plant and begin a local training program that would prep workers

LOGANO’S FEUD WITH HARVICK HEATS UP Joey Logano, the scrawny new kid on the playground, finally stood up to one of the neighborhood bullies by essentially telling Kevin Harvick he was done playing nice. If the confrontation following Sunday’s race wasn’t enough to make his point, Logano followed up with three pointed shots at the veteran driver in a live television interview.

SANFORD — No more pencils, no more books is the way the Cove Kids at J.R. Ingram Elementary School prefer it. Kim Collazo’s fourth-grade students at the school have been piloting Lee County’s first 1:1 laptop initiative at the elementary level this year, and got a chance Monday evening to show off their skills at Ingram’s first Technology Showcase. Collazo said her students couldn’t be more enthusiastic about the initiative.

SANFORD — The key to making more money by going green is spending less and selling more, the guest speaker at the Sanford Chamber of Commerce’s June public policy luncheon told attendees Monday. Jon Parsons, executive director of Sustainable Sandhills, spoke to 40 people at Chef Paul’s Cafe and Catering about how increasing sustainability efforts can benefit local businesses. “It’s hard to find somebody who’s against going green,” Parsons said. “I think you’re out of touch if you’re not embracing it.” Sustainable Sandhills is a nonprofit organization dedicated to raising sustainability awareness in the eight-county region surrounding Fort Bragg. The organization has assisted small and large businesses with sustainability efforts. Parsons used the 1,200 square foot Sustainable Sandhills office as an example of how to put his spend less-sell more model into practice. “We had a $120 electric bill at first, but we beat it down to the 50s,” Parsons said. “We did most of it with heating and air.” The Sustainable Sandhills office also contains signs reminding people to turn off lights and

Today is Tuesday, June 8, the 159th day of 2010. There are 206 days left in the year. This day in history: On June 8, 1967, during the Six-Day War, 34 U.S. servicemen were killed when Israeli fighter jets and torpedo boats attacked the USS Liberty, a Navy intelligence-gathering ship stationed in the Mediterranean. (Israel later said the Liberty had been mistaken for an Egyptian vessel.) In A.D. 632, the prophet Muhammad died in Medina. In 1845, Andrew Jackson, seventh president of the United States, died in Nashville, Tenn. In 1864, Abraham Lincoln was nominated for another term as president during the National Union (Republican) Party’s convention in Baltimore. In 1905, President Theodore Roosevelt offered to act as a mediator in the RussoJapanese War. In 1915, Secretary of State William Jennings Bryan resigned in a disagreement with President Woodrow Wilson over U.S. handling of the sinking of the Lusitania. In 1948, the “Texaco Star Theater” made its debut on NBC-TV with Milton Berle guesthosting the first program. (Berle was later named the show’s permanent host.) In 1966, a merger was announced between the National and American Football Leagues, to take effect in 1970. In 1978, a jury in Clark County, Nev., ruled the so-called “Mormon will,” purportedly written by the late billionaire Howard Hughes, was a forgery.

Board to consider hike in occupancy tax this month

PITTSBOROâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; As part of the countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s budget process, the Chatham County Managerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Office proposed an increase in the room occupancy tax from 3 to 6 percent, a number which will be considered by the board of commissioners this month. A public hearing on the proposed increase is slated for 6 p.m. on June 21, in the Agriculture Building Auditorium in Pittsboro. The room occupancy tax is paid on overnight lodging, such as hotels and inns, with all revenues required to be spent on attracting more visitors. The funds are managed by the Pittsboro-Siler City Convention and Visitors Bureau, which promotes tourism countywide. Officials say an increase in tourism will boost other dollars spent on lodging, restaurants, attractions, retail stores and other places. An annual study commissioned by the N.C. Division of Tourism, Film and Sports Development and conducted by the Travel Industry Association has found that tourismâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s economic impact in the county increased 32.7 percent from 2004 to 2008, with the 2009 results slated for release in late August. The latest report (2008) showed that the overall economic impact of tourism in the county was $25.35 million. It also showed that tourism generated 170 jobs in the county, $3.27 million in payroll and $1.45 million in tax revenues, a tax savings of $31.86 per resident. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are considering this increase in the occupancy tax because we need to be more aggressive in promoting tourism with overnight visitors to increase the overnight stays in local facilities,â&#x20AC;? said Commissioner Chair Sally Kost. As of the current budget year, 42 counties and towns with occupancy taxes had set their occupancy tax rates at 6 percent and many others were above 3 percent.

reduced adoption fee of $25, a quarter the cost for a kitten ($100). â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are hoping that the lower adoption fee will give our adult cats that have been patiently waiting for new homes an advantage over the easier to adopt kittens,â&#x20AC;?

MOORE COUNTY

Two teens accused of robbing Carthage restaurant CARTHAGE â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Two teenagers have been charged with robbing a Seven Lakes restaurant at gunpoint in May, according to a Moore County Sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Office release. Jaron Lamar Baldwin, 19, of the 3600 block of N.C. 211 in West End, and a 15year-old boy were arrested Wednesday after investigators received an anonymous tip identifying them as the robbers, the release said. The robbery happened May 10 at the Peking Wok restaurant on Lakeway Drive about 9:30 p.m., the release said. The business owner, Aiyou Jiang, and an employee had closed the restaurant and were preparing to leave when two people approached them, Capt. Richard Talbert of the Sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Office said. One of the robbers was carrying a shotgun, he said. They demanded money from the business and from Jiang and the employee, Talbert said. Investigators received a tip Wednesday saying Baldwin and the juvenile were responsible for the robbery, the release said. When officers searched Baldwinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s residence, they found marijuana plants and drug paraphernalia, the release said. Investigators also found marijuana plants growing behind the home of the juvenile, who lives near Baldwin, Talbert said. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Fayetteville Observer

No one is immune to foot-in-mouth disease Our View Issue: Pioneering female journalist Helen Thomas resigns about gaffe on Israel

Our stance: Despite her abhorrent remarks, her long and trailblazing career is to be commended

Nobody is immune to the foot-in-mouth disease. Not even the best of us. Consider the comments from Helen Thomas, a well-known and respected 89-year-old journalist, dean of the White House press corps and woman who broke more than a few glass ceilings on her way to the front row of the presidential press room. Thomas abruptly retired and ended her stellar career this week after a May 27 video surfaced in which she tells a hand-held video camera that Israelis should “get the hell out of Palestine” and go to Germany, Poland or the U.S. The nation

“Let’s not let Thomas’ statement overshadow her trailblazing career. If anything, let’s use this as a lesson that all of us should think before we speak. In the very least, be mindful that cameras may likely be rolling.” of Israel has been under fire worldwide because of last week’s deadly raid on a Turkish ship in the Gaza Strip. The country has held a blockade of the strip for three years, much to the chagrin of Western governments. Thomas apologized for the video, but her retirement Tuesday was a more definitive statement. The woman who had taken presidents to task for their

words for decades slipped in a way that the current administration couldn’t defend. Her apology was brief, as it would take pages to make up for her long history of statements against Israel. Despite the misstep and despite an impressive career full of aggressive questions and, at times, condescending tones toward commanders in chief, we’re saddened to see her go ...

especially when it’s not on her own terms. Far be it for a journalist to have an opinion ... even if it’s a controversial one. And we could make the “generational” argument, the one that forgives seniors — especially those nearing 90 — when their “foot-in-mouth” filter begins to deteriorate, but she’s not asking for excuses. Let’s not let Thomas’ statement overshadow her trailblazing career. If anything, let’s use this as a lesson that all of us should think before we speak. In the very least, be mindful that cameras may likely be rolling.

Medicaid fright

hen they arrived in the state capital a few weeks ago, state legislators plowed into the business of putting together a $20 billion state budget like it was a shrimp buffet at a lobbyist-sponsored reception. State senators whacked and hacked, angering public school officials and in-home health care service providers. Within a week, they had passed their plan. House budget writers had different ideas. They took out the state’s financial strains on the public universities, becoming the champions of K-12 education. Two weeks later, they had their spending bill ready to go. For the Democrats in charge, the plan was to get in and get out. No need to fool around in uncertain, troubled times, not with an ornery electorate ready to march to the polls in a few months. Now, House and Senate negotiators only need to work out their differences, put their compromises to paper, have the two chambers vote and then go home. Well, that appeared to be the case until Congress didn’t do what every one said they were going to do. State governments across the country, North Carolina included, expected Congress to extend extra Medicaid benefits for another six months, at a cost of $24 billion. The budget plans put together by Gov. Beverly Perdue, the Senate and House all counted on the yet-to-be-approved money, with each using around $490 million to balance the state budget. Then, the U.S. House dropped the money from a spending bill. The hand-wringing began immediately. Legislative Republicans talked about Democrats passing an unbalanced budget. Legislative Democrats talked about an irresponsible Congress. There’s good reason to believe that words don’t mean much, and that the move by the U.S. House is just as meaningless. North Carolina isn’t alone in budgeting the money. Thirty legislatures around the country have either passed state budgets or are well into the process of passing budgets that rely on six more months of additional federal Medicaid help. Those legislatures aren’t controlled by one political party. Some have Democratic majorities; some have Republican majorities. The governors of those states also come in both political persuasions. They’ll all be calling their congressmen to plead their case about the money. And there’s extra incentive right now for members of Congress to listen. Next year, legislatures will be drawing new district lines for U.S. House members. Typically, state legislators look out for incumbent members of Congress, trying to keep their districts at roughly the same party registration proportions and trying not to draw them out of their districts. Most members of Congress wouldn’t want to see that little tradition change.

BP’s Mr. Sunshine H

ow is it possible that BP chief executive Tony Hayward hasn’t been fired? At this point, how can anyone believe a word the man says? If he told me my mother loves me, I’d want a second source. Hayward has apologized for his one lapse of candor — the now-famous whine last Sunday that “I’d like my life back.” It must be a nice life indeed: According to Forbes, Hayward’s total compensation from BP in 2009 was about $4.6 million. The Louisiana fishermen who’ve been put out of work by the oil spill are accustomed to getting by on considerably less. In a Facebook posting, Hayward said his callous words “don’t represent how I feel about this tragedy, and certainly don’t represent the hearts of the people of BP.” Within hours, though, Hayward’s foot was firmly lodged in his mouth yet again. The effort to contain the oil and keep it away from the Gulf Coast has been “very successful,” he told the Financial Times. “Considering how big this has been, very little has got away from us.” This sunny assessment came as television networks broadcast images of oil-soaked Louisiana marshes, where hazmat-suited workers — who said they were under orders from BP not to talk to the media, on pain of getting fired — were trying to sop up the mess with what looked like rags, as if this were a gargantuan kitchen mishap. Meanwhile, mousse-like clumps of “weathered” oil were being washed onto beaches in Alabama, and authorities in Florida were watching the approach of a menacing, oily sheen. Scientists have not even begun to assess the potential longterm effects of the oil spill on human health, marine life and coastal ecology. Carol Browner, the president’s chief adviser on energy and the environment, said that the Deepwater Horizon incident is already the worst environmental disaster in United States history. Give yourself another pat on the back, Tony. Adm. Thad Allen, who is directing the response effort, is a nice guy — in terms of his public handling of BP, too nice. On Thursday, as BP proceeded with its latest attempt to cap the flow, Allen praised the company for providing several different camera views of the action on the sea floor. But for weeks, BP refused to make public any television images of the oil leak, and relented only under pressure from U.S. officials. Hayward’s statements about the effort to plug the well have been consistently unreliable, and it hardly matters whether he’s being deliberately misleading or just overly optimistic. The giant containment dome was going to work; it didn’t. The second, much smaller containment dome would do the job; it was never even deployed. The “top kill” procedure was

surely going to stop the flow, and early indications, according to Hayward, showed it was succeeding. Yet oil industry veterans such as T. Boone Pickens said the top kill was a long shot at best, and they were right. And as for those giant underwater oil plumes that scientists and journalists keep discovering? Hayward denies they exist. His position is that of a philanderer caught in the act by an irate spouse: “Who are you going to believe, me or your lying eyes?” Since the explosion and fire on the Deepwater Horizon rig six weeks ago, BP’s stock has lost more than a third of its value. Two ratings firms, Fitch and Moody’s, have downgraded the company’s long-term debt, and estimates of what it will finally cost BP to stop the leak and clean up its mess range from $3 billion to $30 billion. All this happened on Hayward’s watch. Somebody, please, give the man his life back. But once that’s done, let’s turn our ire on the real villains. This exercise will require a mirror. An accident like the Deepwater Horizon blowout was bound to happen sooner or later. There are nearly 4,000 oil rigs off the Gulf Coast, and those pumping most of the crude are in deep waters — where, as we now know, state-of-the-art safety procedures are inadequate. President Obama’s moratorium on deep-water drilling will last only long enough for some sort of technological band-aid to be devised. Then we’ll crank up the drills once again. We know that our dependence on oil is ultimately ruinous, yet we refuse to take measures — a meaningful carbon tax, for example — to ease it. Long after Tony Hayward answers for his sins, we’ll be paying for our own.

Today’s Prayer And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead. (Romans 1:4) PRAYER: Thank You, Father, for sending Your Son, Jesus Christ, into the world, so if we believe in Him, we will be with You someday. Amen.

I am writing in response to a letter by Mrs. Sheila Barber which appeared in the June 6 Herald. Regarding the tax to fund the Lee County High School renovations, I fully supported the right of the voters to support or oppose a sales tax increase and to voice their feelings on the matter through referendum. As we all know, the referendum passed by a 2-1 margin, a badge of honor proudly displayed by the good ol’ boys. The truth of the matter is, though, we cannot be sure that the voters chose to support the tax because they believed it was the right thing to do or because they felt that a .25-cent sales tax was more desirable than a property tax increase. When the commissioners indicated that the LCHS project was to be funded regardless of the referendum’s outcome, that body removed the impetus from the people and replaced what should have been a matter of free and informed choice with coercion. Yes, the sales tax passed, but given that its passage was achieved through shamefully extortive means, the success of the tax must be worn as a scarlet letter by those involved in forcing it through. Their “victory” is demonstrative of the tendency of these folks to ignore or manipulate the people in order to achieve their intended goals. On another note, I would also like to address Mrs. Barber’s reference to the comments made by the GOP BOE member. The way in which she presented those comments is out of context of the full discussion and is thus misleading. The BOE member in question was asking those in attendance for their opinions regarding the use of grant funding. He offered as an example the funding of the 1-to-1 laptop initiative. While he did state, as she mentioned, that the money did not come from our local budget, he did recognize that the grant was ultimately still taxpayer funded. Further, he explained that had we not accepted the funding, it is not as though it would have been refunded to the taxpayers, it would just have gone to the next county over and their students would have gotten the laptops. The most important part of the entire conversation and the part that her letter is missing is that this elected official was explaining his thinking and asking us for our opinions on the matter. Perhaps if Mrs. Barber had been willing to engage in a meaningful and productive dialog, then she would have understood his intentions in broaching the subject and would not have spent several minutes attacking one of the few elected officials in this county who actually recognizes his obligation to the people and is genuinely interested in knowing how the people feel on the issues. For the record, I would also like to note that I very often agree with Mrs. Barber on matters of principle. I believe that we must demand from our local leaders the same adherence to the core principles upon which this nation was founded that we expect from those at the state and national levels and we must stop allowing the “good ol’ boys” to use us as pawns in the furtherance of their personal agendas.

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve cut some very large checks in the tens of thousands of dollars back to these companies as rebates for improving their sustainability.â&#x20AC;? Progress Energy also offers a discount compact fluorescent light bulb program that lowers the cost of CFL bulbs to a price comparable to that of standard bulbs. Parsons said that a business improving its sustainability efforts will help not only the environment but the business itself. If green consumers perceive the business as trying to make a difference, he said, they will be more likely to support it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;(Green consumers) want to make a difference and get the sense that the brand or product (they buy) is making a difference as well,â&#x20AC;?

The Sanford Herald / Tuesday, June 8, 2010 / 7A

Red Cross Continued from Page 1A

The Herald: Q: Why was the majority of the local disaster reimbursement money cut from the National Red Cross? When the local chapter could no longer operate independently and gave up its charter in 2007, the need for local services for people in need of disaster relief assistance continued. In Lee County, as across America, the No. 1 disaster response for the American Red Cross is single family fires, some 63,000 times a year on average. With this change in our structure from a chapter meant that a time to restructure and reorganize to support services locally would be needed. We, as all locations similar to ours, could ask for reimbursement from the National Disaster Relief Fund (which helps pay for major disasters such as tornadoes, flooding and hurricane disasters) when we could not raise funds to support the costs of disasters locally. This resource is only meant to be temporarily made available to communities, during the transition and reorganization of Red Cross, to assure there is not a drop in meeting the needs of families impacted by disaster. If all areas of the country simply drew funds from the National Disaster Fund, instead of raising funds

locally, the Disaster Fund would not be available for large major events. Due to the downturn in the economy, local and national donations have been down considerably in the past 18 months. This has impacted the funds available for reimbursement to community such as ours for single family fires. Therefore, to keep the Disaster Fund solvent, our reimbursement rate will be only about 45 percent of the funds we received last year.

recovery efforts.

Q: How much disaster reimbursement funding had the local Red Cross been receiving from the National Red Cross?

Q: How much local disaster reimbursement funding do you believe the local Red Cross needs each year?

The reimbursement has covered 100 percent of all direct disaster assistance to pay for groceries, new clothing, shoes, outer wear, temporary lodging, essential medicines, first monthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rent and deposit assistance and other needed items to help a family relocate to a new residence.

As stated for the upcoming fiscal year is around $22,000 but will grow to over $40,000 (on average) in the near future. About 30-35 families find themselves suddenly homeless, standing near a fire truck, watching their home, belongings and memories going up in flame, smoke and ashes. Our volunteers respond to the their side 24/7 after being notified and our goal is to be with the family within 2 hours of the onset of their fire. Unfortunately, in the past two years, we have also responded alongside the fire departments to fires that also claimed lives.

Q: What have we been spending in that regard? Disaster number are difficult to predict and can fluctuate based on weather conditions and the type of fire such as a duplex or apartment complex. Since our office supports disaster response in Lee and Chatham counties, over the past two years we have given families on average annually a total of $44,000 to buy necessary items to support their

Q: How much has been cut? The impact for our assistance in Lee and Chatham counties is estimated at between $20,000 and $22,000 in the new fiscal year. And the assistance from the Fund will be lowered in future years to zero reimbursement except for large disaster such as tornadoes, flooding and other larger scale events that could impact our residents.

Q: How much is generally spent per disaster? The total given to a family depends on many

factors. The most important contributing factors are the severity damage to the home, the number of residents in the home, as well as what could be salvaged from the home and other resources the family may have such as insurance. As an example for a family four, based on assessed needs and losses, our assistance for essentials could be as high as $3,400 or more. Q: How important do you see a local Red Cross fundraising committee? I feel this is extremely important for our community. We are a nonprofit agency that the community relies on for a variety of services and programs beyond disaster response. Not only do we provide disaster services, we provide health and safety classes such as CPR and First Aid, we collect life-saving blood and we provide emergency services to military personnel and their families each day. Q: How many members are you seeking? I would love to see 12-15 people on our fundraising committee. I am looking for a group of adventurous, creative and hardworking citizens who believe in what we do here at the American Red Cross. They can reach me at our office at (919) 7746857 or e-mail me at camerona@leecountyarc. org.

HELP THE COVE KIDS Kim Collazoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fourth grade class is a finalist in Windstreamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Classroom Connections Spirit Awards. Out of the 30 schools that are Sprit Award finalists, the 10 with the most votes will receive $5,000. If the Cove Kids win, the money will go toward expanding the 1:1 laptop program. To vote for Collazoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s class, visit www.lifetimetour.com/topvideos.php. Voting is open through Aug. 17.

Continued from Page 1A

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really knocked the walls of our classroom down,â&#x20AC;? Collazo said. At the showcase, students were stationed throughout the media center with their laptops and showed off their technology knowledge to parents and other guests who circulated throughout the room. The students shared all of the programs that have aided their studies this year, from their class blog to Tutpup, a site that allowed the Cove Kids to compete with students from around the world to solve math problems. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s way better than a textbook,â&#x20AC;? student Cameron Mashburn said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to pay attention to your opponentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s answer, and when theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re beating you, it makes you want to do better.â&#x20AC;? The 1:1 laptop initiative granted every student in the class a laptop to enhance their learning experience. At the end of fall semester, all of the children received HP mini laptops, and midway through spring semester, a contract was legalized allowing the students to take the laptops home. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They work on them at night, charge them at night, then bring them to school to work on them throughout the day,â&#x20AC;? Collazo said. Collazo has spent the past five years researching the 1:1 initiative, and she said she has been passionate about introducing it at elementary schools. The laptops have allowed the students to explore Web 2.0 tools in the classroom, including the videoconferencing site Skype. Student Amy McPherson said programs she uses on her laptop have helped her with her arithmetic skills. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Doing math was really cool,â&#x20AC;? McPherson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We got to play games with it.

We all like it a lot.â&#x20AC;? Student Jalycia Perry said she prefers Puzzlemaker, a site where she creates her own word searches. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I use it for all my spelling words so I know how to ace the test,â&#x20AC;? Perry said. The class has also been exploring e-books rather than traditional textbooks. Collazo said when she surveyed the class about the laptop program, 71 percent of the students said they prefer reading on a computer screen. She said the students are also passionate about blogging. They each have personal blogs where they can write about any subject they want, and a class blog where Collazo posts a prompt and the students post their responses. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think (writing) is where weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve seen the biggest growth with their literacy skills because theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been interacting with the written world all day,â&#x20AC;? Collazo said. Collazo will teach the same students again next year. She said she hopes to help each student create a digital portfolio, and she hopes to use Skype to allow the students to talk with authors and other speakers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It still takes good teaching and reading and math, but I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a necessary tool now,â&#x20AC;? Collazo said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to give our students an edge as they prepare for the future.â&#x20AC;?

STATE BRIEFS White powder found in envelope at Capitol

As expected, Senate rejects House’s budget

RALEIGH (AP) — An envelope containing a white powder has been taken to a state laboratory after it was removed from North Carolina’s old Capitol building, where Gov. Beverly Perdue works. Perdue’s office said an administrative assistant to Chief of Staff Britt Cobb opened the envelope shortly before 3 p.m. Monday, leading to an evacuation. Perdue spokeswoman Chrissy Pearson said authorities may know what the powder is Tuesday morning.

RALEIGH (AP) — The Senate — as expected — has rejected the House’s version of North Carolina’s state government budget for next year, setting up negotiations to find a compromise for competing plans. The Senate voted unanimously Monday night against the $18.9 billion spending plan the House approved late last week. The Senate approved its own $19 billion plan three weeks ago. The formal vote means the two chambers will negotiate differences and create a final plan and get it to Gov. Beverly Perdue to sign before July 1. Senate and House Democrats differ greatly on how to fund the University of North Carolina system next year.

Treasurer picks new chief investment officer

RALEIGH (AP) — The chief investment officer for Indiana’s public employee pension fund is taking a similar job in North Carolina. North Carolina state Treasurer Janet Cowell announced Monday that Shawn Wischmeier (WISH’my-er) has been hired as chief investment officer of North Carolina’s retirement systems. He succeeds Patricia Gerrick, who was fired in August after five years on the job. Wischmeier will make a base salary of $320,000. The post is one of the highest paid in state government. He previously worked for Eli Lilly and Co. before going to work on Indiana’s state pension fund. North Carolina’s $68 billion retirement plan covers more than 820,000 people. Cowell wouldn’t disclose why she fired Gerrick, who used to work at Indiana’s pension fund, too.

Gov signs hearing-aid bill as kids watch RALEIGH (AP) — Gov. Beverly Perdue says a new law requiring North Carolina health insurers to cover hearing aids for young people is proof one person — a 9-year-old boy who lobbied for the bill — can make a difference. Third-grader Collin Tastet (TASS’-tet) of Greensboro and other children stood next to Perdue as she signed the bill into law Monday in the old House chambers in Raleigh. The Legislature gave final approval May 26 to a bill mandating insurers pay up to $2,500 per ear for hearing aids every three years for children up to age 21. Collin spoke for the bill in committees last year.

for operations at the high-tech facility, officials said. The company is known as the largest worldwide manufacturer of construction equipment like bulldozers, although employees in the expanded facility would be building skid steer loaders, a more compact machine for moving heavy loads. Caterpillar doesn’t release the number of employees at individual employees, but the company is regarded as one of the largest employers in Lee County, despite hundreds of layoff and furloughs at its Sanford and Clayton facilities since the economic recession began. Commissioners also gave the OK Monday to three additional deals for possible expansion and settlement with pharmaceutical labelmaker Challenge Printing Company, Dutch manufacturer Axxor and Gastonia-based Parkdale America. Lee County Economic Development Corporation Director Bob Heuts, who helped negotiate the agreements, said Challenge Printing, which already has an Industrial Park facility, would receive $63,075 in tax breaks over five years in exchange for a $4 million expansion and new jobs. Meanwhile, Axxor, which creates a “honeycomb”-type, lightweight paper material used to strengthen furniture and other items, would receive $70,669 in tax

Reives said he was unaware of meeting When a county commissioner misses a board meeting because of scheduling conflicts, it’s one thing. When a commissioner misses a meeting because they didn’t know it was happening, that’s another, according to Lee County Commissioner Robert Reives. That was Reives’ reasoning for not attending a vital workshop Thursday as commissioners hashed out the details of a $60.6 million budget for the 2010-2011 fiscal year. Commissioners on Thursday managed to pass Reives’ calls for a 2 percent cost-of-living adjustment for county employees, but he missed out on detailed talks regarding funding for some of Lee County’s struggling nonprofit agencies. “I can find no reason that I couldn’t have been told and shouldn’t have been told,” he said. Reives said Monday that he was not aware of last Thursday’s workshop until he spotted a fax notification at his home that evening. He said he doesn’t know how long the notification sat at his fax machine. Reives said he recalled talks of scheduling a workshop for that day, but was not aware of finalized plans by commissioners. “I don’t think that’s called for,” he said. “I think we have enough staff to pick up the phone and call.” Following Reives’ complaints, commissioners approved a policy that will require staff to remind board members over the phone 48 hours prior to a special meeting. Board of Commissioners Chairman Richard Hayes said members did not intend to leave Reives out of budget talks. “There was no slight,” Hayes said. Commissioners have yet to finish the details of the budget package, but are expected to pass a final plan in their regularly scheduled June 21 meeting. — Billy Ball

incentives over five years for a $5 million expansion with between 23 and 35 new positions. Parkdale, the spinning company that largely ceased Sanford operations in early 2009 and relaunched this year, would get $59,018 in tax breaks over five years in exchange for a $4.3 million investment with approximately 25 new positions. Sanford city officials already approved similar deals last week for $50,882 and $42,493 in tax breaks to attract Axxor and Parkdale, respectively. Critics of economic incentive argue the high-stakes deals allow large companies to bait local government agencies into giving away tax breaks with no assurance that the company would not have settled there

anyway. But proponents say it’s a necessary tool for competing with other locales that recoups much more in tax dollars and jobs than governments give away. Monday’s Caterpillar grant differs from the typical economic agreements inked by the county in that it would be the first to speed an upfront payment from Lee County to the company in exchange for its expansion. Most incentives are dispersed through tax breaks over several years once a company makes its investment. County Manager John Crumpton said Lee commissioners have never signed off on an upfront payment as part of an economic incentive deal. Hayes said the county

is facing stiff competition from leaders in Florence, S.C., to bring the hefty expansion home. “I think we’re dealing with something that is quite large for Lee County,” Hayes said. “... South Carolina would love to have this operation, and we must deny it to them, with all due respect.” Heuts said none of the deals passed Monday confirm that the companies will expand or settle in Lee County. It would also mean that locals, in order to lure Caterpillar, would have to seek grant funding to pave the secondary access road and begin a training program, likely at Central Carolina Community College, Heuts said. Commissioner Linda Shook, an avowed opponent of incentive agreements, was the only board member to vote against all four deals Monday. The Caterpillar deal “piqued my interest more than others,” Shook said. “But it also scared the heck out of me with the upfront money.” Shook added that commissioners should consider how Monday’s vote for Caterpillar will affect future negotiations with companies. “I think we’re setting a terrible precedent here,” she said. Commissioner Jamie Kelly said he typically wouldn’t back such an agreement because of the immediate cost, but he said officials must weigh the possible benefits of the project on the tax rolls and in bringing more businesses to Lee County through the training program. “It’s worth the risk,” Kelly said. Commissioners called on other local government agencies like the city of Sanford and town of Broadway to chip in to bait Caterpillar, even though the facility would be located outside of their respective municipal lines and would not be considered on their tax rolls. Board members said surrounding municipalities often benefit in sales and residents when large-scale manufacturers settle nearby. During Monday’s public hearings for the agreements, commissioners also got an earful from local man Russell Noel of Sanford, who warned board members about backing incentives for large companies that “hold us hostage.” Noel said the tax breaks are better funneled to small, local businesses that are sure to remain in Lee County.

AMID UPROAR OVER COMMENTS ON ISRAEL

NATION BRIEFS

Thomas ends White House career

WASHINGTON (AP) — Helen Thomas, the opinionated White House correspondent who used her seat in the front row of history to grill 10 presidents and often exasperate them, lost her storied perch Monday in a flap over calling on Israelis to get “out of Palestine.” Thomas, 89, who made her name as a bulldog for United Press International and was a pioneer for women in journalism, abruptly retired as a columnist for Hearst News Service. The announcement, in a terse statement by Hearst, came after videotaped remarks she made to an independent filmmaker spread virally through the Internet. She apologized, but White House spokesman Robert Gibbs denounced her comments as “offensive and reprehensible.” Her press corps colleagues with the White House Correspondents Association issued a rare admonishment calling them “indefensible.” Thomas joined UPI in 1943 and began covering the White House for the wire service in 1960. Fiercely competitive, she became the first female White House bureau chief for a wire service when UPI named her to the position in 1974. She

Veteran White House journalist Helen abruptly retired Monday as a columnist for Hearst News Service following remarks she made about Israel that were denounced by the White House and her press corps colleagues. was also the first female officer at the National Press Club, where women had once been barred as members. “Helen was just a vacuum cleaner about information,” said author Kay Mills, who took dictation from Thomas as a young UPI staffer and wrote “A Place in the News: From the Women’s Pages to the Front Page.” “She made sure she had everything,” Mills said. “She may have been covering Jackie Kennedy and a birthday party for one of the children, but I’ll tell you, the desk had every bit of information it ever needed.” When the Watergate scandal began consuming Nixon’s presidency, Martha Mitchell, the

notoriously unguarded wife of the attorney general, would call Thomas late at night to unload her frustrations at what she saw as the betrayal of her husband, John, by the president’s men. She retained her place on the front row of the White House briefing room after joining Hearst in 2000 and remained persistent to the point of badgering. A daughter of Lebanese immigrants, she did little to hide her pro-Arab views. During George W. Bush’s presidency, her questions to both the president and his press secretaries were almost exclusively about the war in Iraq. She sharply questioned President Barack

Obama two weeks ago. “Mr. President, when are you going to get out of Afghanistan? Why are you continuing to kill and die there? What is the real excuse? And don’t give us this Bushism, ’If we don’t go there, they’ll all come here,”’ she said. Former Bush spokesman Ari Fleischer said journalists had privately expressed discomfort over Thomas’ role with what they perceived as her advocacy from a plum spot in the White House press room. “Helen had a special stature that she earned,” he said. “That’s what’s so sad, in that she diminished what she earned.” Her retirement was set in motion by a website, rabbilive.com, that relaunched only last week after having previously existed to beam religious services to military personnel in Iraq and Afghanistan. Rabbi David Nesenoff, an independent filmmaker from Long Island who runs the website, said he approached Thomas outside the White House after being there for Jewish Heritage Day on May 27. He said he was there with his teenage son and a friend, who were both wearing yarmulkes, and approached Thomas to talk.

3 dead after natural gas line explodes in rural north Texas CLEBURNE, Texas (AP) — Officials say three people have been killed and several others injured after a natural gas line exploded in rural north Texas. Officials say workers apparently hit the underground line south of Dallas while digging on Monday. Johnson County Emergency Management Coordinator Jack Snow says about six people were transported by air or ground ambulance to hospitals. Laura Harlin is a resident of nearby Granbury and she says the explosion made a “huge rumbling” and sounded like a tornado even from eight miles away. The explosion caused a massive fire that sent orange flames and black smoke streaming into the air.

Prosecutor: Intent of NJ terrorists was clear NEWARK, N.J. (AP) — Two New Jersey men accused of trying to join a terrorist group in Somalia intended to commit acts of violence even though their plans appeared haphazard, a federal prosecutor said Monday. “Sophistication is not a measure of danger,” U.S. Attorney Paul Fishman said. “Their intentions were described pretty clearly. They were watching certain videos and interested in what certain people were saying and advocating.” Mohamed Mahmood Alessa and Carlos Eduardo

Almonte made their first court appearance Monday in Newark. Alessa, 20, and Almonte, 24, were arrested Saturday night at New York’s Kennedy Airport as they prepared to fly to Egypt and then to Somalia, authorities said. They are charged with conspiring to kill, maim and kidnap persons outside the United States by joining alShabab, a group designated by the U.S. in 2008 as a terrorist organization.

Progressive leaders upset with White House, Democrats WASHINGTON (AP) — Progressive activists who helped elect Barack Obama president complained on Monday that the administration and congressional Democrats have been too timid and too willing to compromise. Even though Obama’s major first-term achievement — an overhaul of the nation’s health care system — passed without a single Republican vote, progressive leaders who gathered in Washington criticized the president for failing to create a government-run insurance option to compete with private industry. They faulted Obama for the ongoing wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, the slow pace in repealing the ban on gays serving in the military and last year’s economic stimulus package, which they described as inadequate at $787 billion. They also criticized his handling of the Gulf oil spill. “The White House has been an uncertain trumpet,” said Robert Borosage, a co-director of the Campaign for America’s Future, a progressive organization. “The administration’s reforms were too often too timid from the start and too readily compromised along the way.”

US military detains soldier linked to leaked video WASHINGTON (AP) — The Army has detained a 22year-old soldier in Baghdad in connection with the leak of a military video that shows Apache helicopters gunning down unarmed men in Iraq, including two journalists, defense officials said Monday. Army Spc. Bradley Manning of Potomac, Md., now being held in Kuwait pending the results of an investigation, was the third suspected leaker known to have been apprehended under the Obama administration. A convicted computer hacker from California claimed he alerted authorities about Manning after meeting him online, calling the young military analyst “a good kid who got a little mixed up.”

Well cap captures oil; outlookâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gloomy

NEW ORLEANS (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The cap on the blownout well in the Gulf is capturing a half-million gallons a day, or anywhere from one-third to threequarters of the oil spewing from the bottom of the sea, officials said Monday. But the hopeful report was offset by a warning that the farflung slick has broken up into hundreds and even thousands of patches of oil that may inflict damage that could persist for years. Coast Guard Adm. Thad Allen, the governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s point man for the crisis, said the breakup has complicated the cleanup. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dealing with the oil spill on the surface is going to go on for a couple of months,â&#x20AC;? he said at a briefing in Washington. But â&#x20AC;&#x153;long-term issues of restoring the environment and the habitats and stuff will be years.â&#x20AC;? Allen said the containment cap that was installed late last week is now collecting about 460,000 gallons of oil a day out of the approximately 600,000 to 1.2 million gallons believed to be spewing from the well a mile underwater. The amount of oil captured is being slowly ramped up as more vents on the cap are closed. Crews are moving carefully to avoid a dangerous pressure buildup and to prevent the formation of the icy crystals that thwarted a previous effort to contain

Marine reef ecologist Scott Porter holds barnacle samples he removed from an oil rig in waters, Monday in the Gulf of Mexico south of Venice, La. the leak. The captured oil is being pumped to a ship on the surface. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going fairly well,â&#x20AC;? Allen said. BP said it plans to replace the cap â&#x20AC;&#x201D; perhaps later this month or early next month â&#x20AC;&#x201D; with a slightly bigger one that will provide a tighter fit and thus collect more oil. It will also be designed to allow the company to suspend the cleanup and then resume it quickly if a hurricane threatens the Gulf later this season. The new cap is still being designed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It gives us much better containment than weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve gotâ&#x20AC;? with the existing cap, said BP senior vice president Kent Wells. BP and government officials acknowledged it is difficult to say exactly how much oil is spewing from the well, and thus

how much is still flowing into the water. BP spokesman Robert Wine said the figures being discussed are estimates, some of which have been provided by the government. Ed Overton, a Louisiana State University professor of environmental sciences, suggested it is too early for anyone to claim victory. The spill, estimated at anywhere from 23 million gallons to 50 million, is already the biggest in U.S. history, dwarfing the 1989 Exxon Valdez disaster in Alaska. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re hopeful the thing is going to work, but hoping and actually working are two different things,â&#x20AC;? Overton said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They may have turned the corner, they may not have. We just donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know right now.â&#x20AC;? He said he doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t believe BP will have turned

Dan S. Smith

the corner until it sees a significant flow from the well stopped. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And it is not entirely obvious to me that that is happening,â&#x20AC;? Overton said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I do worry we are not removing as much oil as we ought to be getting,â&#x20AC;? he added. The â&#x20AC;&#x153;spillcamâ&#x20AC;? video of the leak continued to show a big brown billowing cloud of oil and gas 5,000 feet below the surface. In Washington, President Barack Obama sought to reassure Americans that â&#x20AC;&#x153;we will get through this crisis.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;This will be contained,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It may take some time, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to take a whole lot of effort. There is going to be damage done to the Gulf Coast, and there is going to be economic damages that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to make sure BP is responsible for and compensates people for.â&#x20AC;? But in a forecast that was by turns hopeful and gloomy, Allen indicated that cleaning up the mess could prove to be more complex than previously thought. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Because whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s happened over the last several weeks, this spill has disaggregated itself,â&#x20AC;?

Jobs: next iPhone will have clearer screen, high-def SAN FRANCISCO (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The next iPhone comes out June 24 and will have a higher-resolution screen, longer battery life and thinner design. CEO Steve Jobs opened Apple Inc.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s annual conference for software developers Monday by demonstrating the iPhone 4, which will cost $199 or $299 in the U.S. with a two-year AT&T contract, depending on the capacity. The iPhone 3GS, which debuted last year, will still be available, for $99. Some of the mystery surrounding Appleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s latest creation had been punctured in April, when the tech blog Gizmodo bought a lost iPhone prototype for $5,000 and posted pictures of the unit. Apple demanded it back, and authorities have been investigating whether a Gizmodo editor broke any laws.

Police said 38-year-old Gerardo Regalado bypassed at least two men when he fired at the women inside.

Three women were hospitalized in critical condition, Hialeah police Detective Eddie Rodriguez said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He went straight for the women,â&#x20AC;? Rodriguez said. Regalado is the half brother of former baseball star Orlando â&#x20AC;&#x153;El Duqueâ&#x20AC;? Hernandez.

Conclusion coming for Cavs? School Board meeting for first time since Eric Puryear resigned as head coach By ALEX PODLOGAR alexp@sanfordherald.com

MSU AD SAYS CAVS HAVE NOT OFFERED DEAL TO IZZO (AP) — Tom Izzo has another suitor. Michigan State athletic director Mark Hollis told The Associated Press on Monday the Cleveland Cavaliers are interested in Izzo, but haven’t given him the chance to replace fired coach Mike Brown. Yet. “There is not a contract offer on the table,” Hollis said in a telephone interview with the AP. “Last week, there was talk that Chicago and New Jersey were interested. If I was anywhere but at Michigan State, I would be interested in Tom, too, because he’s the best coach in college basketball.” The News-Herald of Willoughby, Ohio, reported Sunday the Cavs have made Izzo an offer to be their coach, citing an unidentified league source. Cavs owner Dan Gilbert reiterated in an e-mail to the AP the team’s policy not to comment on “any rumor about potential new hires, trades, free agent signing, etc.” Complicating his search for a coach is the uncertainty about LeBron James, who is expected to listen to offers from several teams when free agency opens July 1. James said in an interview last week that Cleveland has “an edge” in re-signing him.

GOLF ROMO WITHDRAWS FROM OPEN QUALIFYING

THE WOODLANDS, Texas (AP) — Tony Romo has withdrawn from a U.S. Open sectional qualifier after it was delayed for the second time due to bad weather. The Dallas Cowboys quarterback, one of 36 players vying for two spots in a 36-hole sectional qualifier at The Club at Carlton Woods, just north of Houston, was four shots behind leader Casey Clendenon midway through the event. He started his second round with a quadruple bogey and had played three holes when air horns signaled the day’s second weather delay. Players were going to resume their unfinished second rounds on Tuesday, but Romo withdrew because the Cowboys return to practice then, and he says his first obligation is to his team.

SANFORD — The Lee County Board of Education meets tonight. Might it bring a conclusion to the Southern Lee head football coaching vacancy? Since the departure of oneyear coach Eric Puryear, who resigned on May 18, the Board will

hold its regular meeting for the first time since Puryear stepped down and relinquished the title as head coach. Lee County Schools Spokeswoman Sharon Spence said that any hires would be made public at the meeting, but did not say whether a decision would be made on a coach Tuesday night. “All personnel decisions are

approved by the Board of Education,” she said. “That’s when they become final and that’s when decisions are made public.” Lee County Schools Superintendent Jeff Moss told The Herald on May 25 that a hiring freeze would be placed for all positions, including for the football coach. “That doesn’t mean folks can’t apply,” Moss said then. “But

pending the outcome of the budget, we’re not going to make any recommendations or hires.” A message left for Moss on his cell phone was not returned Monday night. Tom Paris, most recently the defensive coordinator at Hoke County, said when reached

Joey Logano, rear, and Kevin Harvick drives out of Turn 2 late in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series auto race Sunday in Long Pond, Pa. A few laps later, Harvick nudged Logano into the wall while the drivers were battling for fourth with less than two laps to go.

Time for Tom Logano to let Joey fight own battles By JENNA FRYER AP Auto Racing Writer

oey Logano made it clear on pit road at Pocono that he’s sick and tired of being pushed around. It’s about time. Logano, the scrawny new kid on the playground, finally stood up to one of the neighborhood bullies by essentially telling Kevin Harvick he was done playing nice. If the confrontation following Sunday’s race wasn’t enough to make his point, Logano followed up with three pointed shots at the veteran driver in a live television interview. One of them was about Harvick’s wife! Who knew the kid had it in him?

After all, it was long overdue display of backbone for Logano, who likely earned a fair share of respect for finally standing up for himself after a season-and-a-half of being polite. Problem is, his newfound moxie has been somewhat overshadowed by the presence of Daddy. Ah, yes, Tom Logano. Back in the center of the storm. The elder Logano learned a hard lesson last year, when NASCAR pulled his credential for entering pit road to confront Greg Biffle following the Nationwide Series race at California. He was angry at how Biffle had raced his son, who only two weeks earlier had rolled his car seven times in a spectacular accident at Dover.

Young Joey was clearly shaken following that wreck, and his post-accident demeanor raised questions about his mettle. It didn’t help that TV cameras caught Tom Logano making a panicked sprint to the care center, painting a picture of a scared little boy in need of his father. It was probably an unfair characterization, but big-time pro sports can be cutthroat and Joey Logano endured a decent dose of whispering about the back-to-back incidents and the role of his father, the overzealous protector. Yet there he was again on Sunday at

NBA FINALS — ABC, 9 P.M.

Series shifts back to Boston tied By BRIAN MAHONEY AP Basketball Writer

BOSTON — Chin resting in his hand, mouth barely moving as he spoke, Kobe Bryant had the look of someone who would have rather been anywhere but Staples Center. The next few nights might make him long to be back home. The NBA’s best rivalry is returning to its East Coast headquarters, site of perhaps the most miserable moment of Bryant’s career last time he and the Los Angeles Lakers were here for the finals. And the Boston Celtics and their green-clad fans can’t wait to welcome him back.

“I feel good going back to the jungle,” Celtics forward Kevin Garnett said Sunday. Those familiar “Beat L.A! Beat L.A!” chants that have echoed through the Garden during so many springtimes will be booming again, and the Celtics can lock up an 18th NBA title if they can do just that three times. Game 2 is Tuesday night, followed by games Thursday and Sunday in Boston. The Celtics evened the series at a game apiece with their 103-94 victory in Game 2, with guards Rajon Rondo and Ray Allen taking turns

HEADACHES Within a matter of several weeks, the treatment my son received at Ammons Chiropractic ended his severe headaches. All through childhood, my son experienced occasional headaches, usually occurring suddenly, and sometimes severe enough that sleep provided the only relief. At age 15, he began to have headaches more frequently, sometimes several times in a day, and three to four times a week. Conventional medical blood tests revealed no clues, an eye exam and an MRI showed nothing abnormal, but the headaches continued. My son could feel a difference seconds after the ďŹ rst treatment, and within two weeks experienced no more of the debilitating head pain. He also has peace of mind instead of fear of a headache striking at any time. After seeing the beneďŹ ts to my son, I also received orthogonal treatment for neck pain and tightness, a sensation of â&#x20AC;&#x153;crimpingâ&#x20AC;? that I never seemed able to stretch out, and which had plagued me for probably 25 years. One treatment was all it took to relieve the neck tightness â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and after a year, my neck remains comfortable and correctly aligned. Ammons Chiropractic personnel are consummate professionals, careful, methodical, gentle and absolutely committed to seeking solutions.

FRENCH OPEN

A man on the move, Nadal keeps improving By HOWARD FENDRICH AP Tennis Writer

PARIS â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Rafael Nadal is a man on the move. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the way he plays tennis, scampering all over the court with endless energy, and the way he approaches his career. As of Monday, he once again has risen to No. 1 in the rankings, overtaking Roger Federer. Nadal is the first man to win five French Open championships in six years. He owns seven Grand Slam titles overall. And, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t forget, he is less than a week past his 24th birthday. So how did Nadal plan to mark the occasion? A champagne-fueled party? An afternoon spent touring the City of Light? A few well-deserved days off? Not quite. No, here was what Nadalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s schedule called for Monday: the obligatory photo op with his latest trophy from Roland Garros, followed by a Eurostar train trip through

NASCAR Continued from Page 1B

Pocono, where he was the second to reach Joeyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s car after he was spun by Harvick in the closing laps. The first was a Joe Gibbs Racing crewman, who made an honest effort to keep the driver from wading into the sea of yellow-clad team members who had formed a barrier around Harvick. The guy might have succeeded, too, if Tom Logano â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a tall, fit, hot-tempered Italian â&#x20AC;&#x201D; had not pried him away from his son. What happened next is up for interpretation, but multiple replays seemed to show the father encouraging his son to confront Harvick with both a gesture and what appeared to be a shout of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Go Ahead!â&#x20AC;? Joey Logano never got that close to Harvick, but he was red-faced and shouting, behavior never before seen in NASCAR from the polite 20-year-old. At some point in all the commotion, Tom Logano apparently shoved a television reporter out of his way, an action that earned the father his own trip to the NASCAR hauler. Just like that, NASCAR had its very own Little League dad. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not to say Tom Logano wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t already categorized that way. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been hands-on for Joeyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s entire career, which took off after he sold the familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s waste management company in Connecticut and used the funds to help his two children pursue their dreams. It was ice skating for older sister Danielle, and her passion took the family to Georgia. There, they could take advantage of liberal restrictions on young racers, and Joey was driving quarter midgets by the time he was 6 years old. Joey Logano won in everything â&#x20AC;&#x201D; many said because his father could afford to buy him the best equipment â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t long before heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d caught the attention of several NASCAR owners. The hype surrounding Logano began long before he reached the minimum age requirement of 18, and when he made his debut in 2008 for JGR, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d already been dubbed â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sliced Breadâ&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; as in, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the greatest thing since ... â&#x20AC;&#x153; So it was only natural that as Joey navigated his way through NASCAR, his parents tagged along. Why not? What appears to be

the Channel Tunnel to London, followed by an evening practice session Nadal on a grass court. He already is moving on and moving ahead â&#x20AC;&#x201D; thinking about Wimbledon, which begins June 21, and thinking about how he can get better. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are still a lot of things missing. I must continue to improve. To really be satisfied, I have to become the best tennis player of all time. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be really great,â&#x20AC;? Nadal said Sunday evening, a few hours after completely dominating Robin Soderling to win the French Open final 6-4, 6-2, 6-4. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why I try to progress every day. I try to improve my serve, my forehand, my backhand, even my volley,â&#x20AC;? the Spaniard said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That makes me

happy.â&#x20AC;? Put simply, Nadal and his uncle, Toni, his coach since Rafael was 4, are never satisfied, no matter how good the guyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s game appears to be. To that end, Uncle Toni scours YouTube, looking for videos of top players in action, and then he makes his nephew watch and try to copy certain skills. One recent project involved studying the serve of Andy Murray, a two-time Grand Slam runner-up currently ranked No. 4. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Murray,â&#x20AC;? Toni Nadal explained, â&#x20AC;&#x153;has a very easy, good serve.â&#x20AC;? The older Nadal likes Murrayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wrist action and wanted the lefty-playing Rafael to mimic it. But away from a tennis court, Rafael is right-handed â&#x20AC;&#x201D; watch him sign autographs after a match, for example â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and when he attempted to snap his left wrist, racket in hand, the new, Murray-like movement did not come naturally.

Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve examined pieces of other players, too, including the footwork of 16-time Grand Slam champion Federer. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We can look and watch his legs,â&#x20AC;? Toni Nadal said. All the work the Nadals put in, on and off the court, is part of the evolution of an elite player. There are obvious changes, such as standing closer to the baseline than Nadal used to, and more subtle ones, such as to his serve, which is much more of an asset now than it once was. On Sunday, Nadal saved all eight break points he faced and delivered the same number of aces, seven, as the taller, harder-hitting Soderling. â&#x20AC;&#x153;His offensive capabilities have improved tenfold, and his serve has improved exponentially, and his court position. So heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gotten way better than he was five years ago, in my mind,â&#x20AC;? Brad Gilbert, who used to coach Andre Agassi and Andy Roddick, said after Sundayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s final.

a lifestyle of glamour can actually be rather overwhelming with a weekly on-track education, sponsor commitments, time on the road and newfound wealth â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the kind of stuff parents can help a young son manage. And when Loganoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s career was fast-tracked by JGR, which moved him up to the Cup Series at least a year earlier than originally planned, the whole family settled in for the wild ride. But there comes a point when itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time for the family to step back, and Tom Loganoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s constant presence became a topic of gossip early in last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rookie season. It was ratcheted up after the October incident with Biffle, and is front and center again after Sunday. Has Tom Logano crossed the line? Absolutely. Only this isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a case of an overzealous father liv-

ing vicariously through his son. Pro sports are littered with over-the-top, micromanaging parents and, despite the reputation heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s built for himself, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not Tom Logano. His actions are well-intentioned, albeit inappropriate, responses for a proud and supportive father. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s earned the right to celebrate his sonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s success and enjoy the ride so long as Joey allows him to ride shotgun. However, Tom Logano has to figure out his role

in his sonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s career. He got him all the way to the top at a very young age, and he should entrust both the leadership at JGR and crew chief Greg Zippadelli to manage it from here. Instead, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lurked backstage and intervened whenever his boy has been in a pinch. If Joey Logano is truly going to be credited with taking a stand Sunday, then Tom Logano needs to give him the space to celebrate his newfound growth.

Standing room only for Strasburgâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s debut WASHINGTON (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The anticipation is nearly over. The 21-yearold with the fastball that approaches 100 mph and the curve that freezes batters is about to take the mound in the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s capital. Stephen Strasburg is set to make his Washington Nationals debut Tuesday night. Standing room only tickets went on sale Monday, all part of a rare Nationals Park sellout. The Internet is humming with offers for good seats. More than 200 requests for media credentials have been submitted, forcing officials to turn a dining area into a work space to accommodate all those reporters with laptops. For the Nationals, Strasburgâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s major league debut is best summed up in one word. Finally. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m looking forward to that first outing or two

Paris spent the last two seasons at Hoke County. Before that, he worked for seven years at Scotland County as a defensive assistant, including time as the defensive coordinator. Paris also has head coaching experience. After six seasons in the 1990s as an assistant with perennial state championship contender Richmond County, Paris spent four years as the head coach at 2-A Whiteville. As a member of the Waccamaw

Conference, Parisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Wolfpack reached the state playoffs twice â&#x20AC;&#x201D; before the N.C. High School Athletic Association went to the split-class tournament format. In 1998, Whiteville fell in the first round to eventual state champion Clinton. A year later, Paris and the Wolfpack were defeated in the first round by 1999 state runnerup Southwest Onslow. Paris left Whiteville after the 2000 season.

awaited first NBA title, the humiliated Lakers sat trapped in their team bus as Boston fans taunted them from the street. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Obviously thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s feelings involved and thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s memories that are in there, which should help us, should help us to push through and to battle even harder,â&#x20AC;? Lakers forward Pau Gasol said of that night. Both teams were off Monday following the cross-country flight from Los Angeles. The 2-3-2 format in the NBA finals was instituted in the mid-1980s, when LakersCeltics matchups were as common in June as graduation parties, to limit the amount of coast to coast trips. But a return to California wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be needed if either team can win three straight. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We took home court, so weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got a chance to play three games (at home),â&#x20AC;? Celtics forward Paul Pierce said Sunday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But I told you all yesterday that doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t guarantee weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to win the games because weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re at home. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to go out

there and play the game. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to be coming into our house and we canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t assume anything. We canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take it for granted.â&#x20AC;? The Celtics turned things around following their 102-89 loss in their opener by toughening up their defense, limiting the Lakers to 41 percent shooting. Rondo tracked down the long rebounds of many missed shots to ignite Bostonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fast break, and Allen capitalized on the open looks that created by making an NBA finals-record eight 3-pointers while scoring 32 points. The Lakers were frustrated by the foul trouble for Bryant and top reserve Lamar Odom, who has been ineffective in both games. Bryant was more annoyed with his teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s defense against Bostonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s guards, wasting strong efforts from Gasol and center Andrew Bynum. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It has nothing to do with scoring. Nothing. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all defensively,â&#x20AC;? Bryant said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We gave them too many easy baskets and blew too many defensive assignments. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s it.â&#x20AC;?

DEAR ABBY

BRIDGE HAND

Mom must work to overcome contempt she has for daughter

HOROSCOPES Universal Press Syndicate

Happy Birthday: Getting involved in causes you believe in will lead to a change in lifestyle and an awakening regarding life and happiness. You are undergoing changes that will enable you to revisit past mistakes and turn any wrongs into rights. The key is understanding and owning up to whatever has come and gone, so you can move forward with a clean slate and an open mind. The future is simple once you’ve cleared a pathway. Your numbers are 2, 11, 17, 22, 30, 33, 42 ARIES (March 21-April 19): Set the record straight if you haven’t been specific about the way you feel. A personal problem will develop due to a misunderstanding. Now is not the time to overreact or overindulge. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Dealing with personal issues will be emotional but gratifying. It will be a relief to have your position out in the open. You can expect someone to be jealous of you or what you are doing. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Putting money, time and energy into what you already own or have to sell will lead to an opportunity. Be forceful when trying to find out information that can help you with legal matters or a claim you need to make. CANCER (June 21-July 22): Possessiveness in love will work against you. Instead, take on a positive attitude and you will find options that fit into your plans. Avoid making a promise that you don’t really want to honor. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Prepare to take advantage of every opportunity that comes your way. Getting involved in activities or events that you would usually walk away from will spark your imagination and help you make a decision. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Put a little thought into how you can raise the value of your home

WORD JUMBLE

or downsize to meet your financial situation. Money can be obtained by collecting old debts or through gifts, winnings or a new contract you are competing for. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Give and take should be your answer to a problem you face at work. You can establish good relationships both professionally and personally if you compromise. A fast move on your part will produce a financial increase. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): It will be difficult to keep things mellow if you engage in talks with a partner who doesn’t always agree with you. Honesty will be important if you don’t want to experience repercussions or an alteration to your current mode of living. Uncertainty will be your weakness. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Take hold of whatever situation you face and make your point clear and your ideas heard. You may be teetering in your personal life but, before you decide to move in one direction or another, strategize carefully. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22Jan. 19): A chance to make money on property or another asset is likely if you act fast when you see an opportunity arise. You’ll be surprised how well things will go if you refuse to let a friend or relative interfere in your business. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Complete honesty is a must if you want to get your plans off the ground and reach your goals. Don’t count on others being upfront when it comes to money matters. Don’t let your emotions lead you down a path of no return. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Don’t make the same promise to too many people you meet. A partnership can be a solution to a business venture. Someone with a good accounting background can take over responsibilities you don’t have time for.

DEAR ABBY: “Anonymous in Washington State” (March 25) can’t stand her 10-year-old daughter but adores her two sons. I have worked for more than 20 years for a nonprofit organization whose mission is to improve parenting and prevent child abuse. “Anonymous” can access more information from the Washington State Department of Social and Health Services online (www.dshs. wa.gov) or via telephone at (360) 902-8400 to find out about free or low-cost mental health/counseling services in her area. Parent Trust for Washington Children may be able to provide information on support groups and other services. The phone number is (206) 2330156. Finally, there is Childhelp USA ((800) 422-4453) if she wants to speak to a counselor who can direct her to local services. — SUZANNA IN MILWAUKEE DEAR SUZANNA: Thank you for sharing some valuable resources. That letter struck a nerve with many readers who reached out to offer help as well as share similar experiences. Read on: DEAR ABBY: As a teacher, I would occasionally have a student I didn’t like. I gave myself the “Ten Rule.” I’d make 10 positive comments about the student before I allowed myself to make a negative one. The process worked miracles. I don’t know if I changed because I made the effort to find good

DEAR ABBY: Children mimic what they see. “Anonymous” has two sons who are watching and learning how to treat people, especially women. — READER IN MILES CITY, MONT.

qualities, or if the child changed because of the positive input. Before long, I found myself liking and enjoying that student as much as I did the others. — NANCY IN BROUSSARD, LA. DEAR ABBY: I suffered physical and verbal abuse from my mother, who told me often I was her “ugly” child. The day I checked out of the hospital for depression she told me she had never bonded with me as an infant and that I annoyed her. I suffered from low self-esteem for as far back as I can remember. I’m almost 40 now, and after thousands of hours of therapy and hard work, I choose to believe that I am worthy and loving. I’m in a healthy marriage and have a 2-year-old daughter. The thought of repeating the pattern of abuse makes me ill. I hope “Anonymous” will do whatever she can to change her attitude toward her daughter. — J.H., LONG BEACH, CALIF.

DEAR ABBY: My mother was physically and mentally abusive to me while she doted on my three brothers. I used to pray for someone to rescue me. I vowed never to have children because I feared there was a defect my mother had passed on to me, and I never wanted anyone to feel the way she made me feel. Ironically, my three brothers never even call my mother, and after tons of therapy, I am now her loving caregiver. — BEEN THERE IN CALIFORNIA DEAR ABBY: I am 52 and my heart still aches when I think of how unloved I felt as an awkward 10-year-old. My mother was repulsed by me — an overweight, bucktoothed, loud and unladylike girl. After I left home I went on to become a highly successful, beautiful and engaging woman, despite the flawed vision of myself that had been created by my self-absorbed and verbally abusive mother. Little girls grow up, and what this mother ruins today may haunt her tomorrow. — GROWN UP IN NEW ENGLAND

NY couple weds in shark tank, wearing wet suits

Calif. freeway closed after bear wanders in lanes

RIVERHEAD, N.Y. (AP) — A New York couple has taken the plunge inside a shark tank. April Pignataro and Michael Curry were lowered in a steel cage into the tank to exchange their wedding vows at Atlantis Marine World in Riverhead, N.Y, on Sunday. She wore a white wet suit; he wore a black one. The experienced divers spoke their vows into radio headgear transmitted to a minister outside the tank. About 75 guests watched from behind glass. The tank is part of the Lost City of Atlantis shark exhibit.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — A Southern California freeway was briefly shut down while state wildlife officials tried to remove a bear that wandered into lanes. Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Lt. Kerry Carter says the adult black bear was spotted just after midnight Sunday on surface streets near the Foothill Freeway in Duarte. The animal later walked onto the freeway, which was closed for about a half hour. Fish and Game Department workers were eventually able to corner the bear in a flood control channel, where they tranquilized it with a dart gun. The bear, estimated at 250 pounds, was taken to a remote forest area for release. Duarte is about 20 miles northeast of downtown Los Angeles in the San Gabriel Valley.

Speed camera foe buys Tenn. city’s police website BLUFF CITY, Tenn. (AP) — After a Tennessee police department let its website expire, the site was snatched up by a new owner — a man who uses it to gripe about traffic cameras that issue speeding tickets. Computer network designer Brian McCrary says he discovered the Bluff City Police Department site was up for grabs, so he paid domain provider Go Daddy for the rights to http://www.bluffcitypd.com. McCrary, who says he received a $90 speeding citation earlier this year, took over the site May 22. His site now shows a smiling cartoon police badge clutching green currency. It also posts gripes from others who’ve been cited. Police Chief David Nelson said the officer who managed the site had been on medical leave and the expiration slipped up on the department.

Bikini coffee shop sparks boycott in Colo. AURORA, Colo. (AP) — A suburban Denver city councilwoman is urging people to boycott businesses near a coffee shop that sends bikini-clad women onto nearby city streets to advertise. Councilwoman Molly Markert sent a letter of complaint, signed by about 30 Aurora residents, to the manager of the property where Perky Cups operates. Markert suggested in the May 20 letter that the women promoting the coffee shop were in danger of being “raped and murdered.” She wrote that the petition signers have pledged to not buy anything at the shopping center until the women stop advertising in the streets. Perky Cups owner Jason Bernal says his 10 employees aren’t at risk and that Markert’s letter went overboard.

Don’t let peer pressure keep you from God Q: Like lots of people I left God behind when I went to college, but almost 20 years have gone by and I’m beginning to wonder if I made the right decision. But none of my friends have any interest in God, and I’m afraid they’ll drop me if I start going to church. Can you see my problem? -- S.J. A: Yes, I understand your fear, but I deeply hope you won’t let it keep you from renewing your faith in God. The Bible warns, “If you are afraid of people, it will trap you” (Proverbs 29:25, NIRV). After all, friends may come and go -- but God never does. His love for us is unchanging, and so is His promise to be with us and bring us to Himself once this life is over if we know Christ. Don’t let the pressures of the crowd keep you from Him. After all, a hundred years from now, which will be more important: a few fleeting friendships now, or the eternal friendship of Christ? The Bible says, “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever” (Hebrews 13:8). The most important truth I can tell you is that God loves you and yearns for you to come to Him and become part of His family. How do I know this? I know it because He sent His only Son into the world to give His life for you. The Bible says, “For Christ died for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God” (1 Peter 3:18). By faith turn to Christ today, confessing your sins and asking Him to come into your life. Then seek out a church where you can grow in your faith -- and where you’ll also find new friends.
