WINSTON-SALEM – Like an area emerging from a hard winter, the Pied-mont’s employment mar-ket may be beginning to thaw from a long, brutal period of job losses, state employment offi cials said Thursday.
That doesn’t mean the pain is any less for tens of thousands of people in the region who remain out of work because of the worst recession since the Great Depression. But recent in-dications refl ect employers are showings signs of hir-ing, giving some measure of hope for North Carolin-ians seeking a paycheck, N.C. Employment Securi-ty Commission staff mem-bers said.
The board of the ESC met Thursday at the West Campus of Forsyth Tech-nical Community College in Winston-Salem.
Robert Ware, manag-er of the ESC region for a 12-county area in the Piedmont Triad, said he’s more optimistic about job development than at any time since the onset of the recession in late 2007.
“More staffi ng agencies are coming to our offi ces testing the waters,” Ware said, referring to employ-ment agencies seeking ap-plicants for openings.
Another sign is that ESC offi ces in the Piedmont are
assisting more people ask-ing about job openings and placements than inquiring about applying for unem-ployment benefi ts, a shift from a year ago, said Ware, the former manager of the ESC offi ce in Asheboro.
The shift in prospects for the economy was refl ected in the area last week. On May 20, two employers an-nounced major initiatives that eventually will create 450 jobs.
Vitacost.com Inc., an on-line retailer of health and wellness products, will ex-pand its Davidson County
facility and create 300 jobs during the next fi ve years. American Express will build a new data center in Guilford County, leading to 150 new jobs.
The ESC recently con-tacted 12,000 employers across the state and re-ceived responses from 2,000, which led to 4,000 job orders. A year ago at this time, the ESC probably would have received little response from employers with openings.
Since December, the ESC has recorded job growth during three of
four months, for a net gain of 15,700 jobs during the four-month period, said Betty McGrath, labor mar-
ket information director for the ESC.

GUILFORD COUNTY – A state trooper’s patrol car involved in a fatal accident last weekend was traveling an estimated 95 mph when it collided with another ve-hicle, according to the N.C. State Highway Patrol’s preliminary re-port on the crash released Thurs-day.
Trooper J.D. Goodnight was pursuing a suspected speeder on Interstate 85 Business Loop just east of High Point at an estimated 120 mph when a Honda Accord driven by Sandra Allmond of Thomasville attempted to turn left onto River Road into the path of the trooper’s oncoming Dodge Charger about 11:45 a.m. Sunday, the report stated.
Witnesses said Goodnight
veered to the right to try to avoid a collision, but was unable to do so. Allmond, 55, was killed in the crash, as was 11-year-old Taylor Strange of Jamestown. Two other children in Allmond’s car – her grandson, 11-year-old Elijah Allmond, and 9-year-old Steven Strange – were injured and have been released from the hospital.
Goodnight, 40, a 10-year High-way Patrol veteran, initially was headed northbound when he clocked a blue Buick Skylark trav-eling south at 80 mph in a 55 mph zone. He crossed the highway me-dian to turn around and pursue the vehicle. Witnesses stated the car’s blue lights were activated but they did not hear a siren, the report stated.
Allmond’s car was in the Busi-ness 85 northbound left turn lane
waiting to turn onto River Road. The car failed to yield, entered the intersection and was struck by Goodnight’s vehicle, according to the report.
“He busts through an intersec-tion at 120 mph – that is gross negligence. That offi cer was out of control,” said Gerald Allmond of Jamestown, Sandra Allmond’s son and Elijah Allmond’s father. “He was not respectful of all the other vehicles around him. ... I keep hearing protocol, proto-col, he followed protocol. Well, if protocol is 120 mph to get some-body who is not running from you and blowing an intersection at 120 mph, protocol needs to be changed.”
Highway Patrol Col. Randy Glover at a Thursday news con-ference offered condolences to the families involved and pointed
out that troopers must sometimes drive at high speeds to enforce laws.
“We had a tragic event happen this past weekend,” Glover said. “(Troopers) train day in and day out and try their best to keep everybody safe, but sometimes things happen. We don’t want them to happen like this, but we try to rely on our training to en-sure that everybody’s safe.”
The Highway Patrol’s investi-gation is ongoing and is looking into whether Goodnight’s siren was activated, among other is-sues. A fi nal report on the crash is expected in six to eight weeks. In addition, offi cials said an outside investigation into the crash will be conducted through the N.C. At-torney General’s Offi ce.

ECONOMIC SHIFT
SONNY HEDGECOCK | HPE
Offi cials gathered for the groundbreaking ceremony at the new Vitacost addition in Lexington last week. The online retailer and direct marketer of health and wellness products will create 300 new jobs over the next fi ve years.
AT A GLANCE–N.C. Employment Security Commission offi cials say they are seeing signs of a positive turnaround in the job market. But the loss of jobs during the recession shows how far the state job market has to recover.
The state has endured a net loss of 267,500 jobs since December 2007. Employers would have to add 4,458 net jobs a month on average for the next 60 months to return to the state’s employment level in Decem-ber 2007, the ESC reports.

GUILFORD COUNTY – With a new set of state budget fi g-ures in hand, school district offi cials decided Thursday to wait at least a few weeks to see if they need to use fur-loughs or salary cuts to bal-ance the 2011 district budget.
The State Senate issued a set of numbers this week low-er than budget adjustments proposed by Gov. Beverly Perdue last month. While the
governor’s adjustments could cost the school district an ad-ditional $10.8 million, the Senate adjustments are half that at about $5.2 million.
The major difference is that the Senate plan offers no rais-es or restoration for earlier furloughs. Perdue proposed restoring a teacher longev-ity-based salary increase of about 1.8 percent. Teachers would get a one-time bonus to make up for a furlough last year that cost them 0.5 per-cent of their salaries.
Superintendent Mo Green has proposed a two-day fur-lough or pay reduction as part of additional cuts if the district has to cut more than the $29 million anticipated in his $651 million 2011 budget.
The Board of Education voted 6-0 to wait on better state budget fi gures before deciding on furloughs. State offi cials are expected to is-sue guidelines for furloughs, Green said. “The Senate and
Board delays decision on furloughs, salary cutsCUTS LIST----Level A: Eliminate 25 positions to save $1.8 million, but only one of those positions is now fi lled. Cut $4.2 million in projected requests for purchased services, supplies and materials, equipment purchases and
contracted transportation.
Level B: Eliminates an unspecifi ed number of employees to save an additional $2.6 million and adds another $1 million in non-personnel cuts to administrative expenses.

PITTSBURGH (AP) – A Pittsburgh thief turned out to be no match for a little nun with a commanding voice.
Sister Lynn Rettinger didn’t even have to break out a ruler for a man who reached into an opened car window and stole a wallet Tues-
day. She just needed the tone of voice she’s used for nearly 50 years in Catholic schools.
After a teacher saw the man swipe the wal-let, the 5-foot-3 prin-cipal of Sacred Heart Elementary School went outside and fi rm-ly told the man: “You need to give me what
you have.” The thief turned over the wallet, apologized and walked away.
Rettinger said she merely talked to him as she would to students when she knows they have something they shouldn’t.
Police are still look-ing for the man.

WASHINGTON (AP) – This is what you get for ever picking North Caro-lina, Mr. President.
President Barack Obama on Thursday heaped praise on the Duke men’s bas-ketball team for winning the NCAA championship last month– a Blue Devils squad that capped its run in one of the more exciting title games in recent mem-ory, a 61-59 contest against upstart Butler that came down to the fi nal shot.
But standing in the Rose Garden on a sticky day, Obama was still tak-ing heat for (correctly)
picking North Carolina, Duke’s rival, to win it all in 2009. Duke’s coach, Mike Krzyzewski, bristled a bit at Obama at the time and said the president should stick to fi xing the economy. The two have since made up.
“It was nothing per-sonal,” Obama joked on Thursday with the coach and team standing behind him. “Just trying to win some money.”
A smiling Krzyzewski returned the favor by giving Obama a framed copy of this year’s win-ning bracket – with
Duke right in the center. Obama lauded Duke for growing as a team and be-ing part of its community. After their moment at the White House, the players and coaches were headed to the Pentagon to thank members of the military and then to Arlington National Cemetery to pay respects.
The president com-mended the coach for his style, quoting Krzyzews-ki’s philosophy as say-ing a team is like a hand, which can attack with more force when it comes together like a fi st. “Very
subtle, coach,” Obama said.
The hoops-loving Obama spent time talking to the players and taking photos before the ceremo-ny. It came on a day when he also was announcing his latest steps on the Gulf Coast oil spill, holding a news conference, meet-ing privately with former President Bill Clinton and hosting Liberian President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf.
“For him to take the time out to greet us in such a way is just terrif-ic,” Krzyzewski said.
Obama lauds Duke, takes heat over 2009 basketball prediction
RALEIGH (AP) – More public school teachers would be protected from layoffs and the Univer-sity of North Carolina system would take a big-ger fi nancial hit under a House budget plan ap-proved Thursday by a key committee that diverges from a spending proposal offered by the Senate.
The education subcom-mittee, which proposes spending for more than half of the state’s budget, would use $90 million in North Carolina Educa-tion Lottery profi ts be-yond what the Senate recommended in the bud-get it approved last week to hire teachers to re-duce class sizes in early grades.
The lottery money,
most of which wouldcome from reserves and$73 million in higher-than-anticipated net rev-enues for the next fi scalyear, would prevent anadditional 1,635 teach-ing and teaching assis-tant positions from beingeliminated statewide,said Rep. Rick Glazier,D-Cumberland, the edu-cation subcommittee’sco-chairman.
The public schools“should be in a positionwhere there should notbe any additional class-room personnel that willlose their jobs” from anyadditional cuts, Glaziersaid. “We have strivedto reduce every potentialarea where instructionalpersonnel would have tobe cut.”

President Barack Obama poses with members of the NCAA basketball champion Duke Blue Devils in the Rose Garden of the White House in Washington Thursday.
RALEIGH (AP) – North Carolina districts would have more options to try to fi x repeatedly failing public schools in a bill given fi nal approval Thursday at the Legislature, a move that gives Gov. Beverly Perdue a last-minute boost for the state’s next fed-eral grant application.
The measure passed 21-19 and now heads to Perdue’s desk, where she intended to sign it into law Thursday evening so it could be inserted into the state’s Race to the Top application that’s due in Washington early next week, offi cials said. North Carolina wants to win up to $400 million.
The package lays out four options for local education leaders to use to improve more than 130 continu-ally low-performing schools – those where less than half of the state have failed on end-of-grade or end-of-course
test two of the past three years. The biggest change would allow districts to “restart” a typical school by giv-ing it the same fl exibility as a charter school without making it independent from the district. Charter schools are exempt from many rules of most pub-lic schools and can test innovative learning techniques or focus more on children at risk of failure.
“It will strengthen North Carolina’s goal for making all schools successful and making sure all students receive a quality education,” Perdue said in a statement.
But Republicans and a handful of Democrats were uncomfortable with the bill, which went through both chambers in a week – accelerated be-cause of the Race to the Top applica-tion. North Carolina was well out of the money during the fi rst round of
awards announced in March. Charter school proponents didn’t like that the bill failed to lift the state’s cap of 100 regular charter schools, which hasn’t changed in 14 years. Instead, it cre-ated what they called “charter-lite” schools that won’t help the state’s ap-plication.
“The purpose of this is mainly, quite frankly, to draw down federal dollars,” Senate Minority Leader Phil Berger, R-Rockingham. “Federal money is not just money that falls out of the sky.”
Other methods the State Board of Education could authorize local districts to use to help continually low-performing schools include in-creasing learning time and improv-ing teacher performance; removing the principal and many teachers; and simply closing the school.
State Legislature gives fi nal approval to school reforms
House are moving faster than expected and we may have a budget by July,” Green said. “That would be different than we are used to. Furloughs are low on the list for me, but we may have to elim-inate jobs if we do not do furloughs.”
The current state bud-get eliminates an ad-ditional $9 million in district funding for 2010-2011 to reach an estimat-ed $29 million state cut. The set of $10.8 million or $5.2 million adjustments would be added to that.
“Furloughs should be a last resort,” said board member Paul Daniels.
“We may be able to man-age without them.”
The board also has dis-cussed the possibility ofcutting the $15 millionlocal annual supplementto save money ratherthan using furloughsthat may not apply toall employees. Depend-ing on the salary levelschosen, furloughs couldsave an estimated $3.2 to$3.8 million, according tonew fi gures.
“This will be a painfuldecision no matter whenwe make it,” said Chair-man Alan Duncan.

RALEIGH (AP) – U.S. Senator Jesse Helms cur-ried favor with the FBI and director J. Edgar Hoover before starting his 30-year political life as a conservative icon, then occasionally called on the bureau for informa-tion and investigations, newly released records showed.
The FBI fi le on Helms, a polarizing fi gure who ac-tively fought against the civil rights movement, was comprised mostly of agents investigating death threats, according to more than 1,500 pages released to The Associ-ated Press under a Free-dom of Information Act request. Helms died July 4, 2008.
“All senators and con-gressmen get threats pe-riodically. Most of it’s not
s e r i o u s , ”said JesseHelms Cen-ter directorJohn Dodd,who beganworking asa politicalconsultant
for Helms in the early1980s. “It certainly wasn’tsomething he talked aboutmuch.”
The threats came fromgay rights activists, sup-porters of an indoorsmoking ban, and manyothers who expressed nocause. One man carried ahit list and a .357 Magnumhandgun into a 1991 Sen-ate hearing, though docu-ments indicated Helmswasn’t the primary targetof a man out to “penalize”lawmakers for the expul-sion of State Departmentpersonnel from Moscow.

Marine special operations students rush out of the brush after setting an ambush during a training exercise Thursday at Camp Lejeune. The Marines’ names could not be released because of security reasons.
CAMP LEJEUNE (AP) – Marine Corps special operations students set a hasty ambush and pre-pared for a raid as they completed the fi nal exer-cise in the second phase of a grueling training
course in North Caro-lina.
Reporters were invited on Thursday to observe the training near Camp Lejeune. It was the pub-lic’s fi rst look at Marine Corps Forces Special
Operations Command’s new nine-month training course. The physically and mentally challenging course is designed to pro-vide Marines with a basic foundation of special op-erations skills like raid-
ing and reconnaissence.The ambush and raid
were part of the second phase of the course. Oth-er phases of the course fo-cus on communications and unconventional war-fare.

Our so-called president has re-ally slapped the American people down.
Inviting Felipe Calderon to come to Washington, D.C., for a state dinner was inappropriate. He is telling us he doesn’t give a damn about us .
Gov. Perdue’s offi ce said Mexi-cans can’t get food stamps or Medic-aid; that is a bunch of bull. The Mexicans get more help than we do. What is going to happen when every American citizen has to have insur-ance or be fi ned? The Mexicans probably
will not be fi ned as they are not American citizens.
Just look around, they have our jobs while we are going to shel-ters or getting foreclosures. Go to any construction site, you have more Mexicans than Americans, they work for less money.
Go out to a restaurant, they have taken over, while we have to watch our dimes and nickels.
Look at the cars they drive, newer and better than most of ours.
Calderon wants them here be-cause look at all the money they send back.
If we went to Mexico and said the things he said, we would be put in jail.
They need to impeach Obama for letting illegals take over what is ours. He cares more for illegals than for us.
I wish Gov. Perdue had the guts to do what the governor of Arizona did but all she does is pussyfoot around and didn’t come here when the tornado struck. Make the Mexicans take their crime, drugs and violence back to Mexico.

Recent events are making
my hair stand out
May I say a few words – my words!
Does it make the hair on your legs stand out when you hear the
podium-pounding preacher ask-ing God to damn America? Note: He was our president’s pastor for 20 years! I ask God to forgive him for he knows not what he is saying!
Does it make the hair stand out on your legs to hear the president of Mexico trash the great state of Arizona for passing a law to curb the infl ux of illegal Mexicans into their state!
His nation has a much harsher law than what Arizona proposes. And to see our president agreeing with him saying this.
The Arizona law is much less harsh than the U.S. federal law.
Does it make the hair on your legs stand out when a big-time politician tries to explain why he said he served in Vietnam, when he never did serve there?
My hair stands out when I see our country going in the direc-tion of Third World countries. The country is doing this with the help of our Chicago mob that is in Washington.
May God bless this great, giv-ing, loving country, the USA.

• Palin is not presidential mate-rial. She has no international experience at all. Look at all the mistakes she made as vice presi-dential candidate. She would be an embarrassment to the USA.
• The successful governor of a large state most defi nitely qualifi es Palin to be president of the United States. Compare her experience to what we have now, an ACORN organizer!
• No. She allowed hunting of wolves from planes in Alaska. They scare the wolves into run-ning until they are exhausted, then shoot them from planes. She has no compassion.

Yes, Congressman-elect Djou gar-nered 39 percent of the vote in a three-way special election in which two Democrats essentially brought each other down with their bickering and failure to cede the stage. Conventional wisdom holds that, when Djou is forced to run against just one Democratic op-ponent in less than six months, all will be corrected in Hawaii and Democrats will once again assume control of the seat.
But conventional wisdom can’t seem to assign an empirical value to two key factors, and it’s these ingredients that may propel Republicans to the majority in the House of Representatives come November.
The fi rst is the candidate himself. A JAG lawyer and Honolulu city coun-cilman, Djou knows how to work a policymaking institution. He’s a solid, formidable legislator with an equally solid agenda – fi x Washington and save it from the Party of Debt, er... I mean, the Democrats.
Contrast that measured, “outsider” posture against a party long viewed to be out of touch with its constituents, and you have the makings for a Repub-lican to actually keep that seat, even if barely. Just ask Rahm Emmanuel about running the right candidates for tailored districts. There was no mold he tried to fi t when recruiting his Democratic team in 2005 and 2006. His motto was, “just win baby!” and he did.
Second, the Republican Party is taking full ad-vantage of what Univer-sity of Virginia professor Larry Sabato calls the “enthusiasm/frustra-tion gap.” Americans are no doubt frustrated with the policies of this president and his party with little relief in sight. Pair that palpable angst with a renewed enthu-siasm that Republicans are actually starting to
look like a party with bold ideas and a political backbone again, and you have a winning calculus that widens the gap between Obama voters who turned out in 2008 and those who won’t show in 2010.
There’s just little desire this cycle. National Republican Congressional Committee Chairman Pete Session (R-Texas) proved that over the weekend in Hawaii – turning out what little party faithful he had in the 1st District, yet also leveraging that frustration voters are feeling enough to pull Djou across the fi nish line.
As Hawaii goes so goes the House? It’s not that far-fetched of a claim. If Republicans can continue to recruit personable, professional candidates with a solid message of fi scal austerity that rides the tidal wave of frustra-tion voters are feeling, then President Obama may have to deal with a Speak-er Boehner come 2011.

T he economic downturn’s impact on school system budgets all across the United States has been felt here. As school systems looked for savings during
the past couple of years, many of them reduced funding for school bus purchases, and that has had a direct im-pact on High Point-based Thomas Built Buses.
As school systems reduced funds for replacing their school bus fl eets, they canceled or delayed plans for school bus purchases, and that includes the state of North Carolina. The impact at Thomas has been slowed production and layoffs of around 300 during the last sev-eral months.
But this week, there is good news about Thomas Bus-es. On Thursday, the Enterprise reported that 99 previ-ously laid-off workers have been recalled to the produc-tion lines because the company has won major orders for buses from two states. The work will keep the ad-ditional employees busy for several months, according to John Crawford, president of UAW Local 5287, which represents some employees at Thomas.
Of course, in this business climate, uncertainty rules, and we don’t know how long this boost in business might last. But it’s still a boost that gives 99 workers jobs for the next several months.
Certainly, the tough times aren’t over for businesses and for Thomas in particular, as evidenced by the N.C. Legislature’s ongoing efforts to reduce expenses to cover revenue shortfalls. A proposed budget in the Legislature cuts about $12 million from funds for replacing school buses, which could again impact Thomas and its em-ployee numbers.
While we understand the need for the state to cut back some of those funds in order to cover the budget short-fall, we urge legislators to remember that we also don’t want to see the future leaders of our state riding around in rickety school buses or school buses that are aging and could develop problems. As legislators make cuts, they should not sacrifi ce safety, especially that of our children who ride school buses.

munity ... and always will serve it by being an intensely local newspaper of excellent quality every day.
OUR VIEW---
A QUICK THOUGHT---
E ven though the actual start of summer still is al-most a month away, we’re glad city government is turning up the heat on those who own substandard
dwellings in a number of neighborhoods. City inspectors have found structural violations, inoperable heating equipment and other code violations in dwellings at var-ious locations mostly in the inner city and are enforcing ordinances that require owners either to bring them up to code or have them demolished. That’s the quickest, surest way to begin cleaning up the neighborhood.

KINGSTON, Jamaica (AP) – Jamaican security forces kicked down doors and arrested dozens of residents of a bullet-pocked slum on Thurs-day, and said the death toll from four days of fi ghting sparked by the search for a reputed drug lord has risen to 73.
The target of the man-hunt, Christopher “Du-dus” Coke, was nowhere to be found.
“We are still searching for Mr. Coke,” said Depu-ty Police Chief Glenmore
Hinds. “Certainly we can’t disclose where we are looking.”
Hinds said police and soldiers have found 73 bodies, three of which were killed in incidents not related to the raid.
“The 73 bodies we’re speaking about are all civilians,” Hinds said. “But civilians are some-times gunmen and gun-women.”
He said three police offi -cers were killed in the fi ght-ing and 28 were injured. Hinds denied claims by
residents that police were burning some bodies.
Security forces went door-to-door in Tivoli Gardens, the slum where Coke enjoys widespread support and is referred to as “president.” They let residents move about freely beginning Thurs-day afternoon.
Sporadic gunfi re could still be heard in the neighboring slum of Denham Town, where some streets remained barricaded by local gang members.

KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) – A Pakistani Taliban leader who spearheaded the takeover of Pakistan’s Swat Valley three years ago may have been killed in a fi erce battle with Af-ghan forces in remote eastern Afghanistan, offi -cials said Thursday.
Hundreds of militants have been trying since Sunday to seize control of the Barg-e-Matal district of Nuristan province along the Pakistani border, pro-vincial offi cials said.
Following a strong at-tack Wednesday night, villagers who took part in the fi ghting reported that they had killed the Taliban commander, Maulana Fazlullah, along with six of his
fi ghters, according toGen. Mohammad ZamanMamozai, commanderfor Afghan border police
in eastern Afghanistan.Nuristan police Chief
Mohammad Qasim saidauthorities were unableto confi rm the death of Fa-zlullah, who gained promi-nence in 2007 as the “RadioMullah” for his vehement-ly anti-Western sermonson local radio stations inthe Swat Valley.

SEOUL, South Korea (AP) – Military tension on the Korean peninsula rose Thursday after North Ko-rea threatened to attack any South Korean ships en-tering its waters and Seoul held anti-submarine drills in response to the March sinking of a navy vessel blamed on Pyongyang.
Separately, the chief U.S. military commander in South Korea criticized the North over the sinking of the South Korean warship Cheonan in which 46 sail-ors died, telling the com-munist country to stop its aggressive actions.
North Korean reaction was swift. The military declared
it would scrap accords with the South designed to pre-vent armed clashes at their maritime border, including the cutting of a military hot line, and warned of “prompt physical strikes” if any South Korean ships enter what the North says are its waters in a disputed area off the west coast of the peninsula.
A multinational team of investigators said May 20 that a North Korean torpedo sank the 1,200-ton ship. Seoul announced pu-nitive measures, includ-ing slashing trade and resuming anti-Pyongyang propaganda over radio and loudspeakers aimed at the North.

RIO DE JANEIRO – The U.N. secretary-general called Thursday for Ira-nian leaders to make it clear to the international community that their nuclear program is for peaceful purposes.

WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) – An earth-quake with a preliminary magnitude of 7.2 rattled the South Pacifi c island nation of Vanuatu early Friday, briefl y trigger-ing a tsunami watch for the region, offi cials said.
There were no immedi-ate reports of damage.
The U.S. Geological Survey said the quake struck just after 4 a.m. lo-cal time and was centered 300 miles (485 kilometers) northwest of the capital, Port Vila, at a depth of 22
miles (36 kilometers).The Pacifi c Tsunami
Warning Center in Ha-waii issued a tsunami warning for Vanuatu, Solomon Islands and New Caledonia, but can-celed the alert about an hour later.
RAMALLAH, West Bank (AP) – The Pales-tinian government in the West Bank plans a $50 million fund to help work-ers quit jobs in Israeli set-tlements by the end of the year, the labor minister said Thursday – a signifi -cant step in a widening campaign to cut ties with the Israeli enclaves built
on land the Palestinians want for their state.
Israel has denounced the campaign as harmful to re-newed U.S.-led peace efforts, and Israeli settler leaders called on their government to retaliate with economic sanctions. Even among many Palestinians, the ban on working in settlements will be a diffi cult sell.

WASHINGTON (AP) – Thrown on the defensive, President Barack Obama acknowledged that his ad-ministration could have done bet-ter in dealing with the biggest oil spill in the nation’s history and misjudged the industry’s ability to cope with a worst-case scenario. Obama will make his second tour of the battered Gulf Coast on Fri-day.
“I take responsibility. It is my job to make sure that everything is done to shut this down,” Obama declared in a lengthy news confer-ence at the White House on Thurs-day. As he spoke, well owner BP struggled anew to plug the blown well that exploded fi ve weeks ago, killing 11 workers and sending millions of gallons of polluting oil gushing out.
Obama’s words marked a clear shift of emphasis for an adminis-tration that previously had said it was generally “in charge” but there were limits to what it could do – and that oil giant BP was re-sponsible for stopping the fl ow and cleaning up the disastrous dam-age.
“Those who think we were either slow on the response or lacked ur-
gency, don’t know the facts,” said Obama at a White House news con-ference at which he also announced new restrictions on offshore drill-ing. Separately, Elizabeth Birn-baum, the head of the Minerals Management Service that oversees offshore drilling, resigned under pressure.
Meanwhile, as BP labored for a second day Thursday to choke off the leak at the bottom of the Gulf of Mexico, dire new government estimates showed the disaster has easily eclipsed the Exxon Valdez as the biggest oil spill in U.S. his-tory.
The company announced late in the day that it had suspended shooting heavy drilling mud into the blown-out well 5,000 feet under-water around midnight Wednes-day so it could bring in more ma-terials.
The procedure known as a top kill was expected to resume Thurs-day night, but it could be late today or the weekend before the company knows if it has cut off the oil that has been fl owing for fi ve weeks.
As the world waited, President Barack Obama announced major new restrictions on drilling proj-ects.

HOUSTON (AP) – An alert issued about a mem-ber of a Somali terrorist group trying to enter Texas from Mexico could impede efforts by innocent Soma-lis living in Latin America who are trying to gain asy-lum in the U.S., a Somali diplomat said Thursday.
U.S. Homeland Security has asked law enforce-ment in Houston to be on the lookout for a suspected member of the al-Shabaab group, an al-Qaida ally based in Somalia.
Omar Jamal, fi rst secre-tary of the Somali mission at the United Nations, said his nation “is in a constant battle with al-Shabaab” and urged American authorities “to be careful who is bad and good in this new alarm.”

ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT
TRIAD – If you’re traveling in North Carolina this holiday weekend, you likely won’t have problems with construction de-lays.
The N.C. Department of Transportation has suspended most road construction on ma-jor routes across the state in an effort to help motorists get to their holiday destinations more quickly while cutting down on fuel consumption and costs.
Most construction projects along interstates and state and federal highways routes will be suspended beginning at 4 p.m. today until 9 a.m. Tuesday.
There are some exceptions, however, including in the Tri-ad. Interstate 85 south in Guil-ford County will be reduced to two lanes at Exit 113 (N.C. 62) due to construction of the I-73/U.S. 311 Bypass
Also, both directions of Inter-state 40 in Greensboro will be reduced to two lanes between mile marker 213 and 214 due to construction of the Bridford Parkway Bridge
In other parts of the state, U.S. 17 in Windsor (Bertie County)
is reduced to one lane on the Cashie River Bridge due to con-struction. Traffi c is controlled by signals, but trucks are re-stricted on this route and detour signs are in place. All motorists are encouraged to use the U.S. 17 Bypass around Windsor to avoid possible delays.
Meanwhile, the DOT is of-fering some tips for navigat-ing the highways during busy holiday travel weekend and the rest of the summer:
• Leave early to get a head start on your drive. Travel at non-peak hours when pos-sible.
• Stay alert. Even if work is suspended, you may encoun-ter narrowed lanes and traffi c shifts in work zone areas.
• Be patient and obey the posted speed limit. The pen-alty for speeding through a marked work zone is $250.
• Use alternate routes, when possible, to avoid traffi c con-gestion.
Stay informed. Real-time travel information is avail-able over the phone by dialing 511, or online at www.ncdot.gov/travel. NCDOT also now offers Twitter updates for mo-
torists and ferry passengers (visit www.ncdot.gov/travel for more information).
To help reduce fuel consump-tion and save money:
• Don’t rush. “Jack-rabbit” starts and hard braking alone can increase fuel consumption by 40 percent, but reduce trav-el time by only 4 percent.
• Use cruise control. Using cruise control on 10,000 miles driven in a year could save you nearly $200 and save more than 60 gallons of fuel, accord-ing to the U.S. Department of Transportation.
• Remove unnecessary items. An extra 100 pounds in your vehicle can reduce your miles per gallon by up to 2 percent. Wind resistance also can re-duce mileage, so avoid using luggage racks, rooftop carri-ers and ski racks when they are not needed.
• Maintain your vehicle. Keeping your tires properly infl ated, changing your oil and replacing air fi lters can all help improve fuel economy.

GUILFORD COUNTY – While federal stimulus funds are expected to give a boost to the district school construction program, an-other infusion of $68 million has saved jobs.
For this school year, as many as 964 full-time and part-time jobs were pre-served and funded by stimu-lus dollars. The district will receive about $68 million over two years to save 750 full-time equivalent posi-tions.
District leaders antici-
pate the federal stimulus dollars will not be available after next fi scal year, Su-perintendent Mo Green has told county offi cials several times during budget work-shops.
Meanwhile, county offi -cials are working on appli-cations and fi nancial plans to use $16.8 million from the Qualifi ed School Construc-tion Bonds program, anoth-er federal stimulus package,
for school repairs. Last Au-gust, county commission-ers approved using the 2009 $17.1 million installment of low-interest bonds to help pay off school construction projects on the 2008 bond list and to save $6 million in bond interest payments for the $457 million construc-tion program.
The district received State Fiscal Stabilization Fund dollars from the N.C. Depart-ment of Public Instruction which funded 836 school-based custodian, treasurer, data manager and offi ce support positions.
GCS also received Title
I dollars through ARRA to pay for 30 positions. The schools chose to use their allocations in a variety of ways, including restoring cut positions and creating new positions. Schools also offered professional devel-opment opportunities for staff, increased tutoring and purchased additional tech-nological equipment.
The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act stimulus dollars helped the district preserve 98 posi-tions that serve children with special needs.

HIGH POINT – A local Memorial Day service is planned for this weekend to honor those who served their country.
American Legion Post 87 will sponsor the event – scheduled for 2 p.m. Sunday at Floral Gar-den Memorial Park – which will include a speaker, music, the reading of the names of local veterans who have died within the past year and more.
This will be the 62nd year for the service, which previously was sponsored by the Veterans of Foreign Wars and American Legion Post 619.
“A wreath will be placed in memory of veterans, there will be fl owers there and there will be a huge cross of fl ags in front of the fl agpole in the veteran’s section,” said Elizabeth Shufelt, who has helped organize the service for 20 years. “There will be a special section for Gold Star Mothers whose sons died in battle.”
The featured speaker will be Dick Jones, a local freelance writer whose work is featured in The High Point Enterprise. Shufelt said Jones has been involved with the Wounded Warrior Project, a nonprofi t or-ganization that assists U.S. ser-vicemen and women who have been severely injured in the line of duty.
“A lot of the veterans in that program have a hard time, and he has become involved with the program, and hopefully he will talk about that,” Shufelt said.
Music at the service will be provided by Shepherd’s Voice, a family vocal quartet.
The cemetery furnishes 100 chairs for the service. Shufelt recommended those in atten-dance bring lawn chairs to as-sure adequate seating.
The service is in addition to another service that will be held on Saturday in downtown High Point at the Veterans Memorial on High Street, across from the train depot. The Saturday ser-vice, which begins at 10 a.m., will feature speakers, a bagpiper and an honor guard presentation.
Also, the annual Thomasville Memorial Day Parade will be Monday at 11:15 a.m. in down-town Thomasville on Salem Street. The parade will be pre-ceded by a wreath-laying cer-emony at the Vietnam Veterans Memorial at the Interstate 85 rest stop in Davidson County, between Thomasville and Lex-ington, at 10 a.m.

SAN DIEGO (AP) – Re-tired Navy Lt. John Finn, the oldest Medal of Hon-or recipient from World War II, died Thursday at his Southern California ranch. He was 100.
Finn enlisted in the Navy just before his 17th birthday and went on to become the fi rst man to receive the nation’s highest military award for heroism during the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7, 1941, ac-cording to a Navy state-ment.
He was the oldest of 97 Medal of Honor recipi-ents still living.
Despite head wounds and other injuries, Finn, the chief of ordnance for an air squadron, continu-ously fi red a .50-caliber machine gun from an exposed position as bul-lets and bombs pounded the Naval Air Station at Kaneohe Bay in Oahu. He then supervised the rearming of returning American planes.
“Here they’re paying you for doing your duty, and that’s what I did,” Finn told The Associated Press before his 100th birthday. “I never in-tended to be a hero. But on Dec. 7, by God, we’re in a war.”
Finn received the Med-al of Honor on Sept. 15, 1942, from then-President Franklin D. Roosevelt.
He later served as a lim-ited duty offi cer specializ-ing in anti-aircraft guns in San Diego, Hawaii, Washington, Panama and aboard aircraft carri-ers, the Navy said.
He retired in 1956 after three decades of service, but he continued to help young sailors and stayed active in Navy organiza-tions, Lt. Aaron Kakiel said.

Michael H. Jordan, a skilled troubleshooter who held leadership roles at CBS, PepsiCo and Westinghouse, has died from complications related to cancer. He was 73.
Jordan was instru-mental in crafting the media conglomerate that became the CBS of today as its chairman and chief executive. As the top ex-ecutive at Westinghouse Electric Corp., he engi-neered the acquisition of CBS in 1995. He later shed Westinghouse’s in-dustrial businesses and kept the media business. Viacom Inc. bought CBS in 1999 but they parted ways seven years later.
CBS CEO Leslie Moonves says Jordan “took over Westinghouse when most thought its de-mise was inevitable and brought it back to life, transforming the old in-dustrial corporation into one completely focused in the media world.”

Woman hides fl aws by showing off her wealthD ear Abby: I work
with a woman who constantly tells
me how much she has – a condo in Florida, a timeshare in the Virgin Islands, her portfolio, the expensive ring her husband bought her and what she spends on wed-ding/holiday gifts. She even told me about how much she used to make at her previous job.
As a struggling single parent, I fi nd it insensi-tive. How do I deal with this? Is it about my own inadequacies? She is otherwise a seemingly nice lady. My boyfriend says I need to just “get over it.” What do you think? – “Penny Less” in Pennsylvania
Dear “Penny Less”: This woman’s constant need to talk about how much she has is less about your “inadequa-cies” than about her own. People who are happy, secure and socially sensi-tive don’t usually feel a compulsion to brag about what they have. Once you understand that fact, you may feel less inadequate around her. But if that isn’t the case, resolve to spend more of your time with people who talk about ideas and things you have in common, and less with her.
Dear Abby: My mother
was physically and ver-bally abusive to my sister and me when we were kids and teenagers. Mom had a short fuse. She’d slap us if we acciden-tally dropped a piece of spaghetti or scuffed our
shoes. If she thought we were talking back, she’d really lose it and things would get ugly.
My sister is a mother herself now, and
her kids are brats. I know it’s because she doesn’t want to be strict or abusive to them like our mother was to us.
I am engaged and thinking about a fam-ily of my own someday. I don’t know how to discipline children or how to correct their bad behavior without becom-ing abusive. How can I treat my children with kindness, but still have them behave well and be respectful? – Wants To End The Cycle
Dear Wants: Contrary to popular belief, not ev-eryone is born with the instinctive ability to be a good parent. Parenting is a skill, and like most skills, effective parent-ing has to be learned. Because you come from a dysfunctional home, a way to ensure that you won’t repeat the pattern of abuse would be to en-roll in parenting classes and learn about child development. Contact your state department of education, local junior college or hospital and ask if these courses are offered or if they know where you can fi nd them.
Dar Abby: Last year, when I was a freshman in college, my boyfriend, “Charles,” accidentally broke my laptop by clos-ing it on a little bouncy ball. I paid the $800 to have it repaired even though he was the one who broke it because I had the money and he had none. He said he’d pay me back, but it has been a year and I have yet to see any of that money.
As a German major, I am required to study in Germany next year and I am strapped for cash. I have reminded Charles about my laptop and he says he’ll repay me, but I know he’s still in a bad place fi nancially.
Am I wrong to ask for the entire $800 or should I ask for half the amount? Or should I just forget it since it was an accident? I could use some good ad-vice. – Fraught Fraulein
Dear Fraulein: You can ask for whatever amount you wish, but whether you’ll get a penny is up for grabs. It appears Charles is immature. He should have repaid you even if it meant taking a part-time job. You’re a smart girl. Chalk this up to tuition in the school of experi-ence, and recognize that your boyfriend can’t be counted on – for any-thing. DEAR ABBY is written by Abi-gail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at www.Dear-Abby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

CAROLINAS, ABBY
ASHEVILLE (AP) – A black bear took a 45-minute stroll through a western North Caro-lina city during a busy lunch hour.
The Asheville Citizen-Times reported that a young bear sauntered through downtown Asheville on Wednes-day. Police say the bear did not appear aggres-sive. Dozens of gawk-ers watched and took pictures as it wandered several city blocks be-fore disappearing be-hind a park.
Wildlife biologist Mike Carraway from N.C. Wildlife Resourc-es Commission says the relatively small animal likely was a yearling
recently banished from its home territory by its mother, which is nor-
mal this time of year. He says the bear should have plenty to eat in the
wild now so it probably wasn’t forced to look for food elsewhere.

A young black bear runs loose in downtown Asheville Wednesday. Police say the bear did not appear aggressive. Dozens of gawkers watched and took pictures as it wandered several city blocks before disappearing behind a park.
MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNENEWS SERVICE
GREENSBORO – Legis-lators fi led two bills in the General Assembly on Tues-day to bar the release of city-issued cell phone num-bers used by Greensboro police offi cers.
The proposed bills, aim to classify the phone num-bers as records that pertain to criminal investigations, which are exempt from public records laws.
Assistant City Manager Denise Turner said the proposals address con-cerns about calls to offi cers’ phones from the media at crime scenes.
“It was a challenge for them to deal with the re-quests (of the news media for information) and the work on the scene,” she said.
The News & Record made a public records request for the information in May 2009, after several incidents
where its staff had diffi cul-ty obtaining breaking newsinformation from the po-lice department in a timelymanner.
“Our job is to get readersinformation that may affectthem as quickly as possible,”said John Robinson, editorof the News & Record.
“Many times, that’s dif-fi cult because desk offi cersdon’t have the informationthe public needs. As a re-sult, to serve our readers,we must be able to reach of-fi cers with direct knowledgeof the incident. Without thatability, the information weoften get is incomplete,”Robinson said.
“The offi cers use cellphones provided by the city,and their cell phones arepublic information.”
The newspaper never re-ceived the cell phone num-bers from the city, althoughcity staff members said sev-eral times that the requestwas being reviewed by thecity’s legal department.

RALEIGH (AP) – The North Carolina Senate is willing to give additional tax breaks to attract a few businesses interested in building in the state, po-tentially creating more than 1,500 jobs.
The Senate gave tenta-tive approval Thursday to an incentives package that could cost $39 million through 2015 if companies build and apply for the re-ductions.
Sen. Dan Clodfelter of Charlotte said the bill is aimed at closing the deals
on persuading companiesto build two computerdata centers, an energyturbine manufacturerand a plant convertingwood pulp to paper. TheSenate hasn’t identifi edany of the companies byname.
The bill passed 39-4. Sen.Ellie Kinnaird opposedthe bill, saying qualityeducation and transporta-tion are among the thingsthat attract companiesmost.
A fi nal Senate vote is ex-pected next week.

New illness responsiblefor swallowing diffi cultiesD ear Dr. Donohue:
I hope you can shed some light on a
condition our 2-year-old grandson has – eosino-philic esophagitis. His eosinophil count is high. When he eats, even soft food gets stuck on the way down, causing him to gag or upchuck. Once his parents had to rush him to the emergency room because the Heim-lich maneuver couldn’t dislodge the ravioli he was eating.
We are told this is a food allergy, and he was tested and found to be allergic to eggs and nuts. The suggested treatment is to put him on steroids or to stop foods for six months, feed him through a tube and gradually introduce foods to see which ones trigger the problem. Please help us. – K.M.
Eosinophilic esopha-gitis is a newcomer to the catalog of illnesses. It’s something that hap-pens to both adults and children. The eosinophil is one of the white blood cells. In children, the normal eosinophil blood count is 50 to 250, or up to 6 percent of the total white blood cell count. Allergies are one cause of higher counts.
In this condition, eo-sinophils infi ltrate the esophagus, the swallow-ing tube. In children, stomach pain, trouble with food sticking on its
way down and vomit-ing are the principal symptoms. A biopsy of the esoph-agus show-ing that eosino-phils have attacked it is the ultimate
way to confi rm the diag-nosis.
Not all doctors agree to the choices given to this child’s parents. A less-stringent treatment plan involves eliminating the six most common food allergens – milk, soy, wheat, eggs, peanuts and seafood – to see if that will solve the problem. Prednisone treatment (one of the cortisone medicines) is another approach to treatment. Prednisone has seri-ous side effects, and I would like biopsy proof of the condition before I subjected my child to long-term prednisone therapy.
It might be wise for the child’s parents to take him to a large medical facility for confi rmation of the diagnosis and for alternative treatment suggestions.
Dear Dr. Donohue: My problem is a black, hairy tongue. No one has an answer on how to cure it. I have seen an internal medicine doctor,
a gynecologist, an oto-rhinolaryngologist (ear, nose and throat doctor) and an oral and maxillo-facial surgeon. The ENT doctor told me to use a soft brush and baking soda. The surgeon had me use peroxide with water. Is there any help? – E.K.
Black, hairy tongue looks scary but isn’t. The tongue is coated black because tongue papillae have grown long. Usually,they’re periodically shed. Here, they aren’t. Papil-lae are tiny projections from the surface of the tongue. The tongue looks like you are constantly chewing licorice. Black, hairy tongue is no threat to health.
Brushing with baking soda or diluted hydrogen peroxide, three times a day, almost always gets rid of the black color. Youalso should limit your tea and coffee drinking. Smokers have to stop smoking.
In resistant cases like yours, the yeast Can-dida could be involved. Fluconazole, a medicine that gets rid of this yeast, might be needed. It’s a prescription medicine.
DR. DONOHUE regrets that he is unable to answer individual let-ters, but he will incorporate them in his column whenever possible. Readers may write him or request an order form of available health newsletters at P.O. Box 536475, Orlando, FL 32853-6475

Author makes visit
to hometown
W . L. Jackson, longtime friend of former mayor
Roy Culler and his wife, Dot, was in town for a few days last weekend.
Born here in 1925 and a graduate of High Point High School, Jackson, now residing in Hous-ton, has written sev-eral books. They include
“Born in Carolina,” which contains tales of his “growing up” years in High Point and should be of interest not only to those of Jackson’s generation (recalling
“the good old days”) but also to those who moved here during the latter half of the 20th century and since 2000. Another book, “United States World Leader, Respect is Fear,” could serve as a textbook for Tea Party enthusiasts or anyone else concerned with the actions and practices of the Obama adminis-tration. “United States World Leader” is well worth the read regard-less of your political stripe.
Jackson served in World War II, got a degree from UNC-Chapel Hill, then worked in the steel, energy and wood chip industries, register-ing three patents with another dozen pending.

H IGH POINT – Second verse, same as the fi rst.
High-school choral stu-dents at Wesleyan Christian Acad-emy repeated last year’s perfor-mance as the grand-prize winners of the annual Harris Teeter “Sing My Jingle” contest, winning another $10,000 for the school this week. Harris Teeter offi cials presented the check Wednesday afternoon at the school.
In addition, Wesleyan’s win-ning video of the jingle – which was selected from more than 100 entries from high schools across the Southeast – aired on Fox during Wednesday’s night’s broadcast of the “American Idol” fi nale.
“It’s really, really awesome to know that a ton of people will be watching you on TV,” said Ashley Sacks, a 16-year-old rising junior from Oak Ridge.
Ashley was one of three soloists who sang in the video, along with Lindsay Barts and Ashley Lowry. They were backed by more than a
dozen members of Servant, a mixed choir at Wesleyan.
Participants in the fi fth annual jingle competition were given the melody and words to the Harris Teeter jingle, and the challenge was to videotape their own unique arrangement in a format that could air as a commercial for the super-market chain. Keven Spargo, a fi ne arts instructor at Wesleyan, created a catchy choral arrangement – simi-lar to what you might see on the hit TV show “Glee” – and the students embraced it and made it their own.
“We all knew that we wanted to do the ‘Glee’ style, so Mr. Spargo ar-ranged it for us, and we all loved it,” Ashley Sacks said. “There wasn’t anything we wanted to change about it.”
Harris Teeter sponsors the annual competition as part of its Together In Education program.
Offi cials of the grocery chain mar-veled at the school’s repeat perfor-mance as grand-prize winner.
“I did not think it was possible for you to create another video that was as good or better than last year’s,” said Scott Haines, director of the
chain’s Skeet Club Road store. “Imagine our excitement when we found out that our panel of judges from Harris Teeter chose Wesleyan Christian Academy as the winner of our fi fth annual ‘Sing My Jingle’ contest.”
In fact, two other jingles submit-ted by Wesleyan also earned high praise from the panel of judges.
“Our judges watched over a hun-dred video submissions, and your school’s entry was above and beyond anything else we watched,” Haines said. “If we could’ve awarded a fi rst-, second- and third-place winner, Wes-leyan Christian Academy would’ve swept the contest. Each of your three submissions was outstanding.”
On Wednesday afternoon, the stu-dents wore brightly colored T-shirts proclaiming the school’s accom-plishment: “Harris Teeter Sing My Jingle Champions: 2009, 2010.”
That night, the students cel-ebrated with a party, at which they watched their winning commercial aired during the “American Idol” fi nale.

Yesterday’s Puzzle SolvedFriday, May 28, 2010CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Carey
Mulligan, 25; Kylie Minogue, 42; Christa Miller, 46; Gladys Knight, 66
HAPPY BIRTHDAY: Plant your feet fi rmly on the ground and move in a positive direction that suits your needs. Whoever doesn’t come along for the ride isn’t likely to have anything to offer you in the future. Choose your friends and colleagues wisely and get rid of any dead weight or baggage. Honesty will keep you from getting into trouble per-sonally and professionally. Your numbers are 2, 5, 12, 26, 29, 34, 48
ARIES (March 21-April 19): You can get ahead if you are swift to make a move to free up your cash. Money is heading your way, so be smart about the way you invest it. A business trip will lead to an in-teresting opportunity. ★★★★★
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Don’t be fooled by an unrealistic offer. You are better off putting your cash in the bank than spending on something that doesn’t live up to its promises. An emotional squabble will be costly if you are reluctant to say no. ★★★
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): It will be diffi cult to make choices that tug at you emotionally. Be prag-matic or ask someone you know to help you make an important decision. Offer your time, not your cash, to a cause and you will avoid a stressful situation. ★★★
CANCER (June 21-July 22): An opportunity you have been feeling uncertain about will become clear. Don’t be afraid of added responsibility. It will allow you to direct the outcome of a situation you are interested in controlling. ★★★
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Get involved in activities or groups that stimulate you and you will feel alive and ready to conquer the world. Don’t let someone’s disdain for what you are doing stand in your way. Feeling good about who you are and what you can accomplish is what counts. ★★★★★
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): If you upset some-one unintentionally, it will be diffi cult to make the changes you have been planning. Think and respond rather than reacting harshly. Diplomacy will allow everyone to maintain dignity and have a graceful way out. ★★
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Don’t just dream about taking a trip or learning something different, do it. The people you meet, once you follow your heart and your dreams, will encourage you to follow through. Your intuition will guide you in the right direction. ★★★★
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Take advantage of any opportunity that presents itself. A new respon-sibility will help you realize your potential. Diver-sify and you will excel in ways you never thought possible. Don’t shun your responsibilities. ★★★
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Consider what you want and the possibilities you foresee and you can manipulate the situation to fi t your needs. Your ability to act impulsively may unnerve some-one but your sense of adventure will dominate. You can forge ahead and impress the people watching. ★★★
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): A simple ap-proach to a new project will make it more appealing. Mix business with pleasure and you will fi nd it eas-ier to seal a deal. A contract or settlement can bring you greater assets and a promising future. ★★★
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): The changes you make now with regard to the way you live and the things you do for money will have a positive effect on your future. Diversifying will lead to greater in-dependence and a serious partner with lots to offer. ★★★★
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): You will fi nd it dif-fi cult to control your emotions, leaving you in a vul-nerable position with a tendency to overreact, mak-ing matters worse. Instead, keep busy and focus on work. ★★
ONE STAR: It’s best to avoid confl icts; work behind the scenes or read a good book. Two stars: You can accomplish but don’t rely on others for help. Three stars: If you focus, you will reach your goals. Four stars: You can pretty much do as you please, a good time to start new projects. Five stars: Nothing can stop you now. Go for the gold.
TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES
After today’s South cue-bid four spades to show his ace, North could hard-ly exclude the possibility of slam. Alas, South’s play precluded any chance of making it.
When West led the king of hearts, South secluded himself for a moment, then ruffed in dummy and led a trump to his ace. When West discarded, South was in trouble. He ruffed a heart and led the king of diamonds, pitch-ing a spade.
West took the ace and led the ace of hearts, forc-ing dummy to ruff with the king. East’s jack of trumps had to score, and North watched the play conclude in sadness.
BAD BREAKSouth’s brain functions
were occluded. His plan failed to include handling a 3-0 trump break. South should lead the king of di-amonds at Trick Two and pitch a spade.
West wins and must lead the ace of hearts, else South will draw trumps ending in dummy and run the diamonds. South ruffs in dummy and takes the A-K of trumps. He cashes two diamonds to pitch a spade and a heart and wins the rest without diffi culty.
DAILY QUESTIONYou hold: S K 7 5 H A K
10 8 7 6 D A 7 5 2 C None. You open one heart, and your partner bids one spade. The opponents pass. What do you say?
ANSWER: This is a tough problem for “Stan-dard” bidders: No second bid can adequately con-vey the hand’s potential. You lack the high-card strength for a game-forc-ing jump to three dia-monds, nor can you jump to three spades with only three-card support. Bid two diamonds and hope the auction doesn’t die.

Davidson Coun-ty Community College’s men’s basketball team added another player for next season with the signing of Deon Boyce.
Boyce, a 6-foot-5 forward/center from Jacksonville High School, scored 17.1 points per game last season. The im-pressive athlete also pulled down 13.8 rebounds per game – sec-ond best in the entire state.
“He is a qual-ity person that seems to be very coachable,” Storm coach Matt Ridge said. “He is a re-bounding machine and he knows how to win.”

J oe Gibbs enjoys having the hottest two drivers on the Cup circuit in terms of winning.
He also might have the two who are hottest at each other, even though they tried to say everything would be fi ne between them go-ing forward.
Kyle Busch and Denny Hamlin said Thursday they are putting their incident in Saturday night’s All-Star race behind them so they won’t damage the effort to bring a fourth championship to JGR.
But, Hamlin got in a couple of zingers before making his declaration late in the afternoon after Busch earlier in the day said he still thought Hamlin was in the wrong to try to keep the lead by blocking, a move that resulted in Busch driving into the wall.
Busch later crashed out and drove straight to Hamlin’s hauler and waited for Hamlin with Gibbs. Becoming agitated over ques-
tions about the incident on Friday, Busch downplayed the meeting in which Gibbs said they needed to pull together.
Asked if he could work with Busch, Hamlin said: “I’m not going to put too much effort in it, to be honest with you. Kyle brings this stuff up himself and he gets mad at the media for asking him questions about his blow-ups and stuff, but he does it to himself. I don’t want to be part of it. ... That’s all I’m going to say and I’m going to be done with it. Each year I think Kyle’s going to grow out of it and he just doesn’t. Until he puts it all together, that’s when he’ll become a champion. Right now he just doesn’t have himself all together.”
Hamlin wasn’t done. Later, when asked when he felt the need to mature and be a team leader at JGR, Hamlin leveled another shot saying: “I think when Tony (Stewart) left. I didn’t say that I was going to take over this team or be the leader of this team, but
somebody’s got to be the leader – it ain’t go-ing to be Kyle (Busch).”
Ouch.Hamlin said he thought he was in the right as
the leader and Busch could have used his brake to avoid hitting the wall. He also said the All-Star race was a special circumstance with its $1 million fi rst prize and no points. If the same situation occurs in the middle of Sunday’s 600, Hamlin said he would get out of Busch’s way.
Hamlin later said Busch would use the in-cident as motivation and he would continue to try to help Busch’s team at the track.
“I’m still going to need him,” Hamlin said. “I can’t just cut him off and he can’t just cut me off starting right now. We’re going to need to still work together.”
It might now take some more mediation from Gibbs for that to happen.

HIT AND RUN---
DON DAVIS JR. | HPE
HiToms’ designated hitter David Roney (right) is welcomed back to the dugout after scoring the game’s fi rst run in the HiToms’ home opener against Forest City on Thursday night at Finch Field in Thomasville.
BY GREER SMITHENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER
CONCORD – Qualifying for the Coca-Cola 600 on Thursday night turned out to be as predictable as hot temperatures on Memorial Day weekend.
Ryan Newman set the pace once again at Charlotte Motor Speed-way and will start the 600 from the pole Sunday for the sixth time in the last nine years. Starting from the 600 from the pole ties the re-cord held by David Pearson, who won a CMS-record 14 poles. New-man, who took the 46th pole of his career, is second with nine.
Newman zipped to a lap of 187.546 mph in a Chevrolet to nip Saturday night’s All-Star winner Kurt Busch by two-tenths of a sec-
ond. Martin Truex Jr., two-time 600 winner Kasey Kah-ne and three-time 600 winner Jimmie Johnson completed the top fi ve.
The only thing different for New-
man this time was his line in the turns.
“I ran the high line which I’ve never done before,” Newman said. “That tells you how much the cars and tires have changed, and made me search for the correct line to get that speed.”
Newman said he chose the high line in the turns after watching Juan Pablo Montoya set the pace in practice. Montoya had trouble getting around turns three and
four in qualifying and wound up 20th.
“The way I ran in practice, I was two-tenth off Montoya,” Newman said. “He was showing us how to do it. I used his line. My crew chief (Tony Gibson) scared me when he said the top fi ve to that point had run the bottom. I decided to go to the top went for it all. When you think it’s right, it’s right.
“I’ve never run into a corner 200 miles an hour up next to the wall and make it stick and come out the other side. For me to have the cour-age to do that was something.”
The front row is the same as in 2007 when Newman and Busch were teammates at Penske Rac-ing. Busch was gunning to com-plete a Penske sweep of the poles here and at the Indianapolis 500.
Truex, the runnerup in the All-Star race was about three-quar-ters of a second off Newman’s speed, but went much earlier in the qualifying order when more sunlight bathed the track.
“I would have like to have had a better draw and won the pole,” Truex said. “But it was about 20 positions better than I usually have qualifi ed here.”
Dave Blaney was 17th as the fastest driver who needed to qualify on speed. Bobby Labonte starts 42nd.
Brad Keselowski hit the wall coming off turn four on his sec-ond lap and will start at the rear of the fi eld. Reed Sorenson, David Stremme Mike Bliss and Max Pa-pis failed to qualify.

BY JASON QUEENSPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE
THOMASVILLE – With the college season still in its fi nal stages, the HiToms only dressed 11 players for their home opener Thursday against defending Coastal Plain League champion Forest City.
No problem.Kyle Barbeck threw seven no-hit
innings and the Owls committed four errors and threw four wild pitches to help the HiToms roll to an 11-1 win. The HiToms applied constant pres-sure with 13 hits, roughing up three different Forest City pitchers.
All of that was more than enough with Barbeck on the mound. He es-caped a bases-loaded, one-out jam in the fi rst with a double play ground-er, then breezed through the next six frames with little trouble. HiToms
coach Tom Dorzweiler lifted him after seven innings, with Barbeck’s pitch count at 117. Wes Walker lined a one-out single in the ninth off re-liever Ben Grisz, who started the game in right fi eld, to break up the no-hit bid.
For Barbeck, it was just good to be on the mound. “It’s kind of a relief to face some live hitters, it’s been a while since I’ve done that,” the redshirt freshman from Ole Miss said. “I had to fi ght through some walks, but the defense, I can’t thank them enough.”
Dorzweiler certainly appreci-ated not having to make too many scratches on his lineup card. “I was hoping to get six (innings) out of Kyle, and he just started cruising,” he said. “I couldn’t ask any more out of him.”
Grisz put the Tommies on the board fi rst with an RBI double in
the bottom of the second. Trinity alum Matt Dillon made it 2-0 when he scored in the third, thanks to a strikeout wild pitch, an error and another wild pitch.
Michael Patman’s solo homer and Daniel Kassouf’s two-run sin-gle made it 5-0 after three, and the HiToms were rolling.
On the night, John Caroll Neese had three hits and Dillon, Kassouf, Rob Froio and Dave Roney added two hits apiece.
That approach certainly pleased Dorzweiler. “We struggled last night,” Dorzweiler said about the season-opening loss in Martinsville on Wednesday.
“They knew what work had to be done, so they were here at 10:30 in the morning taking BP. They knew what they did wrong, and they came ready to play.”
HiToms take home opener, 11-1
SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE
ROCK HILL, S.C. – Be-hind solid pitching from relievers Drew Dades and Kyle Wigmore as well as timely hitting, No. 4 seed High Point edged No. 2 Liberty 2-1 in Game 8 of the 2010 Big South Baseball Cham-pionship on Thursday night at The Winthrop Ballpark.
HPU improves to 31-27 and advances to play No. 1 seed Coastal Carolina today at 3 p.m. Liberty falls to 40-18 and will face No. 5 seed Winthrop in an elimination game this morning at 11.
Dades took over for injured starter Jaime Schultz in the fi fth in-ning, and proceeded to hold the Flames to just two hits and one un-earned run before giv-ing way to Wigmore in the ninth. Dades (2-0) retired nine consecu-tive hitters during his four offi cial innings on the mound.
With High Point cling-ing to a 2-1 lead in the bottom of the ninth, and with Liberty runners on second and third, Wigmore induced a line out and then struck out Trey Wimmer to end the game.
Murray White IV was hit by a pitch to force in Matt Gantner for the 1-0 lead in the sixth. Max Fulginiti went 4-for-4.

Colorado’S Seth Smith watches his two-run home run in the seventh inning against the Arizona Diamondbacks at Coors Field in Denver on Thursday. The Rockies fi nished with four homers in an 8-2 victory that capped a series sweep.
SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE
BIG SOUTH TOURNAMENT
(1) COASTAL 11, (3) RADFORD 9ROCK HILL, S.C. – No. 1 seed Coast-
al Carolina scored 10 runs in the second inning and withstood a fu-rious rally from No. 3 seed Radford in defeating the Highlanders 11-9 in Game 7 of the Big South Baseball Championship on Thursday at The Winthrop Ballpark on the campus of Winthrop University.
Coastal improves to 49-7 and will play the winner of No. 2 Liberty-No. 4 High Point game today at 3 p.m. Radford is eliminated with the loss and ends its season at 29-26.
Coastal batted around in the sec-ond inning and jumped ahead 10-0. Chance Gilmore opened the scor-ing with a two-run double, then Rico Noel had an RBI-double, Scott
Woodward had an RBI ground out, Jose Iglesias contributed an RBI-single and Tommy La Stella belted a two-run home run that sent Radford starter Eddie Butler to the showers. New pitcher Brad Wimmer gave up a two-run single to Gilmore, who eventually scored on a wild pitch for the 10th and fi nal run of the in-ning. Taylor Motter doubled twice in the inning and Gilmore had four RBIs in his two trips to the plate.
Gilmore and La Stella did the most damage for Coastal Carolina. Gilmore was 2-4 with four RBIs, while La Stella fi nished 3-4 with three RBIs. He increased his season home run total to 13 with his two blasts on the day.
Matt Rein earned the win in re-lief.
(5) WINTHROP 11, (6) VMI 6ROCK HILL, S.C. – Winthrop’s Chas
Crane belted two home runs and No. 5 seed Winthrop withstood a late rally to win 11-6 over No. 6 VMI in Game 6 of the Big South Baseball Championship on Thursday at The Winthrop Ballpark on the campus of Winthrop University.
The Eagles improve to 27-29 and advance to play today.
VMI is eliminated from the tour-nament and falls to 33-22 for the sea-son.
Crane fi nished 3-for-5 at the plate with fi ve RBIs, and has now hit three home runs in the tourna-ment.
Winthrop moves to 4-0 against VMI in the Big South Tournament. The Eagles were without head coach Joe Hudak Thursday, who was serving a one-game suspension following his second ejection of the season on Wednesday against Lib-erty.
Ten-run second inning sparks Coastal
C up points leader Kevin Harvick closed the door Thursday on any possibility he might attempt to
win the Nationwide Series champion-ship in addition to competing in all of the Cup races, even though he is third in Nationwide standings and 64 points behind leader Brad Keselowski.
Starting next week, the series are at different tracks for a three-week stretch that ends with a weekend in which the Cup Series is at Infi neon Raceway near San Francisco and the Nationwide Series is at Road America in rural Wisconsin.
Harvick, who drives Nationwide cars from his shop in Kernersville, said the schedule makes racing at Infi -neon and Road America diffi cult.
“They’ve made it impossible not to take away from both programs with the Road America race,” Harvick said. “If I can’t do all of them, there is no reason to do the whole summer stretch.”
Next week Cup is at Nashville and the Nationwide race is in Nashville. The next week fi nds Cup at Michigan and Nationwide. Harvick said Mike Bliss will be in the No. 33 for those events and a race in St. Louis in Octo-ber when the Cup series is at Martins-ville. Ron Hornaday Jr., who drives for Harvick in the Truck Series, will fi ll in at Road America and at India-napolis Raceway Park when the Cup Series is 10 miles away at the India-napolis Motor Speedway.
“I said from the beginning I had no intentions of doing them all,” Harvick said. “We’ve won a couple of Nation-wide championships, and we really want to win a Cup Championship.”
NO BROTHERLY LOVEKurt Busch said his brother Kyle
was at fault in the incident between Kyle and Denny Hamlin in the All-Star race. Kurt indicated Kyle should have lifted instead of staying in the gas when Hamlin blocked in the 10-lap fi nal segment. Kyle Busch ran into the wall. “He’s run a number of these All-Star races and he’s run all of them at 100 percent,” Kurt Busch said. “You don’t have to run at 100 percent.”
ANOTHER TRYSteve Park will try to qualify for his
fi rst Cup race since the end of 2003 season at the July race in Daytona.
Tommy Baldwin chose Park to drive his No. 36 Toyota in a tribute to Modifi ed legend Richie Evans that
will include an orange-and-black paint scheme similar to those on the cars that Evans drove to eight straight champion-ships from 1978 to 1985.
Baldwin was the son of a Modifi ed driver and Park raced Modifi eds before reaching NAS-CAR’s top series. Evans was killed in a crash in practice at Martinsville Speedway after he had
clinched the 1985 title.Park suffered a head injury in the
Nationwide race on Labor Day week-end 2001 at Darlington. He returned the next season but couldn’t fi nd a ride after 2003.
DIRT ACTIONNo cars are scheduled to take to the
1.5-mile track today as action shifts across the street as the World of Out-laws sprint car series is to compete on the CMS dirt track.
IN THE SPIRITAt least six cars will sport military-

NEW YORK (AP) – Desmond How-ard scored two of the most memorable touchdowns in the storied history of Michigan football and struck the pose that Heisman contenders have been mimicking since.
Barry Alvarez resurrected a Wisconsin program that looked hopeless on the fi eld and off and went on to become the only Big Ten coach to win consecutive Rose Bowls. The game-breaker and the pro-gram-builder are now Hall of Famers.
Howard, Alvarez and the late Pat Till-man were among the 14 newly elected members of the College Football Hall of Fame announced Thursday by the National Football Foundation at a news conference at the Nasdaq Stock Ex-change in Manhattan.
The others included defensive line-man Dennis Byrd of N.C. State; center Ronnie Caveness of Arkansas; defensive lineman Ray Childress of Texas A&M; guard Randy Cross of UCLA; running
back Sam Cunningham of Southern Cal-ifornia; quarterback Mark Herrmann of Purdue; receiver Clarkston Hines of Duke; defensive back Chet Moeller of Navy; halfback Jerry Stovall of LSU; and linebacker Alfred Williams of Colorado.
Gene Stallings, who led Alabama to a national title in 1992, was the other coach elected to the Hall of Fame.
Howard, who won the Heisman Tro-phy in 1991, found out from his mother he was elected. The speedy and diminu-
tive receiver dominated the Big Ten in1991 for the Wolverines, scoring a school-record 23 touchdowns and 138 points.
Tillman played linebacker for ArizonaState from 1994-97 and gave up an NFLcareer with the Arizona Cardinals to en-list in the Army in 2002. He was killedwhile serving in Afghanistan in 2004.
The newest class will be inducted inDecember in New York and enshrinedat the Hall of Fame in South Bend, Ind.,in the summer of 2011.
Byrd, Hines elected to College Football Hall of Fame
PARIS (AP) – Maybe this is progress for Andy Roddick on clay: He lost serve seven times Thurs-day and still won.
On a rainy, chilly day at Roland Garros, Roddick endured two delays and diffi cult conditions to de-feat Blaz Kavcic 6-3, 5-7, 6-4, 6-2.
The damp weather took some zip off Roddick’s biggest weapon, and for much of the match he was dueling from the base-line on his worst surface. But Roddick has become a more patient player in recent months, and he willingly settled into ral-lies that often lasted more than two dozen shots.
“It was brutal for me out there,” he said. “I couldn’t get my serve to go any-where, and the ball was just sitting up. It kind of takes away a lot of shots and it makes it just about hitting the ball and run-ning. ...
“I don’t know the last time I lost serve seven times and won. So, I mean, it’s bad, but there’s got to be something good in there somewhere, too.”
Roddick hadn’t played a match on clay this year when he arrived in Paris, but he’s now above .500 lifetime at Roland Garros – 9-8.
Ana Ivanovic hit anoth-er low in her slide since winning the French Open two years ago, losing in the second round to No. 28 Alisa Kleybanova 6-3, 6-0.
A former No. 1 player, Ivanovic was unseeded because she’s ranked only 42nd. The defeat marked her earliest exit in six trips to the French Open.
“It was a combination of a few things,” Ivanovic said. “I don’t think I played that bad, actually. For a while, I think she didn’t miss a ball at all.”
The match lasted barely an hour – brief enough to be completed between showers. Play was de-layed for 4 1⁄2 hours at the start, and there were two later interruptions.
In other women’s match-es, No. 4-seeded Jelena Jankovic, No. 5 Elena Dementieva and No. 11 Li Na won, while 39-year-old Kimiko Date Krumm lost to Jarmila Groth 6-0, 6-3.
Date Krumm became the oldest woman since 1985 to reach the second round when she upset for-mer No. 1 Dinara Safi na, the runner-up in 2008 and 2009.
Three seeded women lost: No. 8 Agnieszka Radwanska, No. 21 Vera Zvonareva and No. 32 Kat-eryna Bondarenko.
Roddick reaches third round at rainy Roland Garros
Radwanska was upset by Yaroslava Shvedova 7-5, 6-3. Zvonareva lost to Anastasia Rodionova 6-4, 6-4. Bondarenko was beaten by Aleksandra Wozniak 6-4, 6-1.
Also, No. 4 Andy Murray
beat Juan Ignacio Chela 6-2, 6-7 (5), 6-3, 6-2. Ameri-can John Isner, seeded 17th, hit 38 aces and beat Marco Chiudinelli 6-7 (3), 7-6 (3), 7-6 (7), 6-4. No. 13 Gael Monfi ls lost to Fabio Fognini 2-6, 4-6, 7-5, 6-4.
BOSTON (AP) – It’s a good thing for the Bos-ton Celtics that the NBA rescinded center Kend-rick Perkins’ technical foul and nixed his sus-pension.
He might be the only big man they have left.
Perkins was ejected from Boston’s 113-92 loss to Orlando in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference fi nals on Wednesday night after picking up two technicals in the fi rst half. The league re-scinded one on Thurs-day, clearing Perkins to play in Game 6 when Boston tries for the third time to eliminate the Magic and advance to the NBA fi nals.
“It’s another close-out game on their home court,” Magic forward Rashard Lewis said. “I think the game on Fri-day will most defi nitely be the hardest game of the playoffs that we’ve ever faced. They’re a vet-eran team. They’ll come out with a lot of energy and a lot of heart, and I’m sure they’re not go-ing to want to come back to Orlando.”
And, even with Per-kins, the Celtics will be shorthanded.
Backup Glen “Big
Baby” Davis was diag-nosed with a concussionand is likely to miss to-night’s game after black-ing out on the court froman inadvertent elbow tothe face in Game 5. Ra-sheed Wallace tweakedhis back in the game,and his availability forGame 6 was not immedi-ately known.
“We’re not a team that’sgoing to look and say,‘Woe is me,’ ” said Celticsswingman Paul Pierce.“Our goal is to win onemore game and end theseries regardless of whowe put out there. Thatjust means guys have gotto come together. Oneguys down, or two guysgo down, it’s got to comefrom everybody.”
The Celtics need a vic-tory tonight to avoid atrip back to Orlando fora seventh game, wherea Magic victory wouldmake them the fi rst teamin NBA history to comeback from a 3-0 defi cit ina best-of-seven playoffseries.
“I didn’t like being in a3-0 hole, but it’s still do-able. I don’t think we’vehad a lack of belief,” Or-lando coach Stan VanGundy said. “We can’tgo back and get thosefi rst three.”
Celtics hope to avoid Bruins’ fate, reach fi nals

6D www.hpe.com FRIDAY, MAY 28, 2010 THE HIGH POINT ENTERPRISE
It was a Silver Anniver-sary celebration. The invitations had a silver
glow with even the paper shimmering. Although the anniversary was silver … volunteers at High Point Regional Health System are pure gold! In the past 25 years, HPRHS volunteers have given over 1.5 million hours of service.
The presence of the vol-unteers manifest as soon as you enter HPRHS. Volun-teers welcome, direct, con-
sole, escort, bid adieu always with a cheerful smile. I won’t even begin to calculate the money that translates to but I can calculate the volunteers and their service as ... price-less! They
have come a long way, baby, since the volunteer program was conceived in 1985. That fi rst year, volun-teers served a total of 5,000 hours. Today, they donate 5,000 hours of service in just one month! A reason to celebrate ... indeed!
It was a Grand Ole Opry celebration and the vol-unteers, many who came directly from HPRHS still adorned in their maroon smocks, arrived at the Barn Dinner Theatre en masse for dinner (lunch, really) and a show, “Ring of Fire: The Music of Johnny Cash.” Although the marquee didn’t fl ash … this was defi nitely an SRO not-to-be-missed event for the dedicated volunteers. As we arrived, we were escorted to our assigned tables (of four). I was the fi rst to ar-rive at my table and noticed a beautiful corsage at the table setting next to me. The place card simply said, “Annie.” I was delighted and, yes, I knew which “Annie” would be sitting next to me. It was Annie Riddick, former director of Volunteer Services who retired a couple of years ago. Riddick is one of those people who you meet that you just like immediately (remember lunch, Annie)! I met her years before I even started writing my column when my husband was in the hospital for surgery. We immediately became friends.
After what I have told you, it probably wont surprise you that it was Riddick who founded Volunteer Services 25 years ago. Though sitting next to each other, we barely had a chance to speak since she was constantly surrounded by well wishers, hugs and kisses.
As the volunteers arrived among the constant din of
conversation among the volunteers … or probably more accurately said … the constant din among friends, I just felt that warm, fuzzy feeling watching the chatter, the laughter, the camaraderie amongst these volunteers.
Observing, I saw some-thing that has often been told to me and that is, “I receive more back from giving than receiving.” I saw that adage in motion and that was exemplifi ed by Bobbi Watkins, current di-rector of Volunteer Servic-es, who took the program that Riddick began and has followed in the loving ex-ample that Riddick started. Again as I write this, I think of warm and fuzzy. Watkins truly loves her volunteers and she thinks of each and every one of them as one of her family.
I would be remiss if I didn’t mention volunteer Hilda Fountain, who at 101 years young, is still going strong. She arrived with Kathleen Killebrew. Both started as a Red Cross volunteers. Killebrew has volunteered for 42 years and has an estimated 20,000 hours! That is an incred-ible amount but it is Anita Caswell who has logged the most volunteer hours at over 22,800! Both deserve a WOW. All volunteers deserve a WOW.
I had to ask Fountain about her garden as she is known for her love of gardening, especially veg-etables to the delight of her neighbors. She told me that she hadn’t had much time
to garden ... she had been too busy washing sheets for all of the company that she has entertained! That is Hilda!
Also of note is that the phenomenal volunteer Jim Eddins (third most hours at 10,500) recently celebrated his 95th birthday and still has a kiss for all of the girls! Lee Byrd had the second
most hours at 17,400.As everyone was seated,
Watkins told them, “I don’t think there is anyone more proud of you than I am. Each of you have touched one person at a time.” Rid-dick added, “You can never have a bad day around the volunteers. They thank you for giving them the oppor-tunity to help others.” They
were followed by Dr. Elliott Williams, chief of the medi-cal staff and Jeff Miller, president of HPRHS, “On behalf of the 130,000 people whose lives you touch last year. Thank you.”
Then it was “on with the show” as the lights dimmed and the stage descended from the ceiling to applause. The fast paced show roused the crowd. “Johnny” even went into the crowd and endearingly serenaded my friend Mary Jane Lindsay (1,200 hours)! It was special occasion for Lindsay. I was a special occasion for all of the volunteers but even more special is the love they give to our community.
I’m ending this segment with an adapted poem that the Volunteer Services staff dedicated to the volunteers: Thanks for all of the little things; the done and-then-for-gotten-things; the oh-it’s-sim-ply-nothing things that make our days much brighter!
A poem is the perfect seg-ue to say a few words about former City Councilman and public servant Ron Wilkins, who passed away last month at the age of 53. I did not know him well but he was a prolifi c poet and, at every momentous occa-sion that we both attended, he would share a deeply affecting poem he had writ-ten. Wilkins cared deeply for his fellow man and gave
of himself selfl essly even as his health worsened. His love of poetry was shared with his dear friend Ellie Shavitz. She told me that, atthe time of his death, he hadmoved to Winston-Salem to live with his twin brother.
That did not stop him from coming to his beloved High Point several times a week. It was while waiting at a bus to come to High Point that Wilkins suffered his fatal stroke. Now, in the words of Shavitz, I would like to share with you the fi rst and last stanzas of her poem which she read at his funeral. Her eloquent wordsleft an already quiet room mesmerized with many a teardrop gently falling in remembrance of this man:
“Ron, you have left a legacy of your own
“In helping the less fortunate and fi nding them a home
“Never did you think about yourself
“Only those who needed your help”
(Last stanza)“You are among the
angels reveling“in God’s loving grace“Passing on your legacy
in that“beautiful place....“Called Heaven.”

WASHINGTON (AP) — The number of newly laid off workers fi ling claims for unemployment benefi ts dropped last week but the level still remained higher than expected, indicating only modest improvements in the job market.
Applications for un-employment benefi ts fell by 14,000 to 460,000 last week, the Labor Depart-ment reported Thursday. Analysts had expected the level would fall further to 455,000.
Economists say they will feel confi dent about sus-tainable job creation once weekly fi rst-time claims dip below 425,000.
The latest decline came after claims had risen by a revised 28,000 in the previ-
ous week, the largest gain in three months.
The latest level of claims is slightly higher than it was at the start of the year, underscoring that the nation’s workers are still facing tough times even though the overall econo-my is growing again after enduring the worst reces-sion since the 1930s.
In a separate report, the Commerce Department said Thursday that the overall economy, as mea-sured by the gross domestic product, grew at an annual rate of 3 percent in the fi rst three months of the year, slightly slower than the 3.2 percent initially estimated.
Even though the economy has been growing since last summer, the pace of growth
has not been fast enough to make much of a dent in high unemployment.
The jobless rate hit a high of 10.1 percent last October. While it fell to 9.7 percent for three months, it rose again to 9.9 percent in April as disappointed workers be-gan returning to the labor market to search for jobs.
Jobless numbers at that level pose a risk to the recov-ery because they depress consumer spending, which accounts for 70 percent of total economic activity.
The four-week average for new jobless claims edged up to 456,500 last week.
The government said the number of people receiving benefi ts fell by 49,000 to 4.64 million for the week ending May 15.
Jobless claims drop less than forecast
WASHINGTON (AP) — The economic rebound last quarter turned out to be slower than fi rst thought, one of the rea-sons unemployment is likely to stay high this year.
The economy grew at a 3 percent annual rate from January to March, the Commerce Depart-ment said Thursday. That was slightly weaker than an initial estimate of 3.2 percent a month ago. The new reading, based on more complete infor-mation, also fell short of economists’ forecast for 3.4 percent growth.
The reasons for the small downgrade: con-sumers spent less than fi rst estimated. Same goes for business spending on equipment and software. And, the nation’s trade
defi cit was a bigger drag on economic activity.
“We’re out of recession, but the recovery is not go-ing to bring a whole lot of smiles,” said Joel Naroff, of Naroff Economic Ad-visors. “At this pace of economic growth, it will take a long time to bring the unemployment rate down to more reasonable levels.”
During normal times, growth in the 3 percent range would be consid-ered healthy for the U.S. economy. But the country is coming out the longest and deepest recession since the Great Depres-sion. So economic growth needs to be a lot stronger — two or three times the current pace— to make a big dent in the nation’s 9.9 percent unemployment rate.
Economic rebound loses

WASHINGTON (AP) — Johnson & Johnson learned of potential problems with its Motrin formula in 2008, but instead of issuing a re-call, hired an outside con-tractor which began buying up the products, according to congressional investiga-tors.
Colleen Goggins, J&J’s president for McNeil con-sumer products, will testify before House lawmakers Thursday about ongoing quality problems with its over-the-counter medica-tions.
Last month McNeil re-called more than 40 vari-
eties of children’s medi-cines after Food and Drug Administration inspec-tors discovered a slew of violations at a company plant.
Some of the medicines recalled contained tiny particles of metal, though federal health regulators say the risk of health risks is remote.
The recall is the latest in a series that threaten to tar-nish J&J brands like Tyle-nol and Benadryl.
Lawmakers will ques-tion Goggins about the lat-est problems as well as its handling of a 2009 recall.

BERLIN (AP) – The U.S. and Europe broadly agree on the need for reform of the fi nancial system, but global cooperation is needed, Treasury Secre-tary Timothy Geithner said Thursday.
He also said countries are working together to balance cutting back defi -cits with supporting eco-nomic growth.
Geithner met German Finance Minister Wolf-gang Schaeuble during a two-day visit to Europe that also took him to Brit-ain and to the European Central Bank in Frank-furt.
The trip comes amid ongoing market volatil-ity following European nations’ agreement this month on a €750 billion (nearly $1 trillion) loan
backstop for governments in danger of defaulting on debt – coupled with efforts to cut budget defi cits.
Germany, the euro-zone’s biggest econo-my, pushed that deal through parliament last week. Geithner wel-comed Berlin’s “lead-ership role” in putting together “this very strong framework,” as well as its speedy ac-tion to implement it.
He deflected worries that austerity mea-sures could lead to an economic setback. He underlined the need to reduce debt “to sus-tainable levels over the medium term” and add-ed that “we’re going to get there at somewhat different paces.”
“We are working very
closely together to try to make sure that we are strengthening and rein-forcing this global recov-ery,” he said.
Schaeuble noted that the rules governing the euro are titled the “stabil-ity and growth pact” and said countries would try to do justice to both ele-ments.
The eurozone rescue package – preceded by a rescue for Greece that remains unpopular in Germany – has been ac-companied by renewed European determina-tion to advance regula-tory reform of the finan-cial system.
Many on the continent contend that specula-tive market practices exacerbated the debt crisis.
Geithner: US, Europe agree on reform
WASHINGTON (AP) – An investment fi rm and its founder and chairman, Arthur Samberg, have agreed to pay a total of $28 million to settle regu-lators’ charges of insider trading in shares of Mi-crosoft Corp., in a long-running case that prompt-ed scrutiny by Congress.
The Securities and Ex-change Commission an-nounced the settlement Thursday with Pequot Capital Management Inc., whose core hedge fund was liquidated last
year, and with Samberg, a prominent fi gure in the fi nancial world.
They neither admitted nor denied wrongdoing in settling the SEC’s civil lawsuit fi led in federal court in Connecticut.
The SEC alleged that the hedge fund traded Micro-soft shares on confi dential information provided by a former employee of the technology giant whom it later hired.
That alleged tipster, Da-vid Zilkha, was hired by Pequot in April 2001. The
SEC alleges in a new ad-ministrative proceeding against him that Zilkha concealed from the agen-cy staff that he had got-ten inside information on Microsoft’s earnings and recommended to Sam-berg that he buy the stock based on the advance in-formation.
Zilkha, 41, left Pequot in November 2001. His attorney, Henry Putzel III, didn’t immediately return a telephone call seeking comment Thurs-day.

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) – Former child television star Gary Coleman is in critical condition near his Utah home, a hospi-tal spokeswoman said Thursday.
Utah Valley Regional Medical Center spokes-woman Janet Frank said Coleman, 42, was admit-ted to the Provo facility on Wednesday but she couldn’t release any oth-er details.
Coleman lives in San-taquin, which is 55 miles south of Salt Lake City.
The actor is best known for his stint on TV’s “Diff’rent Strokes,” which aired from 1978 to 1986.
In February, Coleman suffered a seizure on the set of “The Insider.”
Coleman has lived in Utah since 2005, when he came here to star in the movie “Church Ball,” a comedy based on basket-ball leagues formed by members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
He met his wife, Shan-
non Price, on the movieset and married her in2007.

MIAMI (AP) – The At-lantic hurricane season could be the busiest since 2005, when Katrina and Rita caused massive de-struction along the same part of the Gulf Coast now struggling with the larg-est offshore oil spill in U.S. history, government scientists said Thursday.
The 2010 season may spawn as many as 23 named tropical storms,
including up to seven ma-jor hurricanes, a number not likely to be affected by the spill, the National Oceanic and Atmospher-ic Administration pre-dicted.
Eight to 14 storms would strengthen into hurricanes, with top winds of 74 mph or high-er, the agency said. Three to seven of those could become major storms
that reach Category 3 orhigher – meaning theybring sustained winds ofat least 111 mph.
“This season could beone of the more active onrecord,” NOAA admin-istrator Jane Lubchencosaid in a news release.“The greater likelihoodof storms brings an in-creased risk of a landfall.In short, we urge every-one to be prepared.”
