A pedestrian makes her way along the drive leading to High Point Regional Hospital as ominous clouds hover overhead. A series of fast-moving storms moved across the Triad Tuesday, prompting the National Weather Service to issue tornado, severe thunderstorm and flashflood warnings for many surrounding counties. Power outages were reported in the Samet Drive and Westfield Street areas in the city. See today’s forecast on 6D.

GUILFORD COUNTY – Most district schools saw positive gains on state 2010 tests, according to preliminary results released Tuesday.

Overall, students made positive gains in all end-of-grade subjects.

The overall test composite results grew by 1.8 percentage points to 72.7, reading grew by 1.9 percentage points to 67.5, math increased by 1.1 percentage points to 81.2, and science scores made the biggest gains, increasing 3.3 percentage points to 63.

Local home sales dip

BY PAM HAYNES ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – The hype of the homebuyer’s tax credit is beginning to wear off monthly home sales, leaving the housing market to stand – or fall – on its own this summer.

According to the Triad Multiple Listings Service, home sales in High Point were down 3 percent in June, with 118 units sold, from the same time last year and down 20 percent from May. The opportunity to qualify for the tax credit ended in April, and local real estate agents had anticipated sales, which rose sharply since February, to begin to cool off this summer. Pend-

ing home sales did see an 11 percent increase, however.

Ed Terry, executive Poarch vice president of the High Point Regional Association of Realtors, said pending sales are an important factor that paint a broader picture of the local housing market.

“Pending sales are those under contract, but not yet closed,” Terry said.

“As such, they are a very accurate indicator of actual market activity. This increase in market activity bodes extremely well for the remainder of the summer.”

Housing statistics for the second quarter, released last week, continued to echo the increased sales derived from the tax credit. Sales in the second quarter were up 14.7 percent from the same time last year and up 3.7 percent from the first quarter.

The 3 percent year-toyear drop is a mild one, but the housing market continues to face the same challenges that it saw last year, said Jeannene Poarch, a broker with Allen Tate Realtors.

“We still have a lot of distressed sells,” Poarch said about foreclosures and short sells. “It isn’t all good, and it isn’t all bad, but we’re still taking a hit.”

Terry said the local housing market has remained grounded without the credit thus far.

“Whereas the trend for housing nationally is stagnant at best, the

Archdale OKs updates to pedestrian plan

BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

ARCHDALE – Updates to Archdale’s Pedestrian Network Plan have been given the initial OK by the city’s Planning and Zoning Board.

The Archdale Planning and Zoning Board on Monday night voted unanimously to approve updates to the plan. The plan, which includes updates for planned sidewalks and greenways in the city, will be considered by the City Council on July 27.

Jeff Wells, the city’s

planning and zoning director, said the city’s comprehensive plan states every few years the plan will be evaluated and updated to ensure the plan remains current based on conditions that may have changed over the years.

The current pedestrian network map plans for 26 miles of sidewalk and 13 miles of greenway trail.

Wells said staff worked with the planning board in work sessions on several minor updates to the plan.

A total of 8 miles of sidewalk and one-half of a mile of greenway is pro-

posed to be added to the city’s plan.

At the Planning and Zoning Board meeting Monday night, Larry Thomas, the board’s chairman, questioned Wells on how the additional sidewalks and greenways would be funded.

“There’s some opportunities out there,” Wells said. “We are always looking for grants. Along with development activity and grants we can get our hands on, we will continue to add to it.”

The updates to the plan include continuing installing sidewalks along

U.S. 311 from Suits Road to the extent of the city’s extra-territorial jurisdiction, as well as sidewalks along School Road to Trinity Road to provide connectivity to Trinity’s greenway planned for the Braxton Craven Road area.

A sidewalk also is proposed for Aldridge Road between S. Main Street and Rand Boulevard for connectivity to the city’s Piedmont Authority for Regional Transportation lot. Updates to the plan also propose additional connectivity for the Goodman Street/Luck Drive

sidewalk between Main Street and Archdale Road and Gregg Street/Lane Drive sidewalk between Main Street, Archdale Road and Tom Hill Road.

Wells said a Park Drive sidewalk is proposed to provide a safe walking path along Park Drive between the city’s recreation center and senior center.

According to the proposal, a greenway is planned to connect the Forest Hills subdivision with multi-family uses along N.C. 62.

Guilford hopes to get schools off low-performance list

BY DAVID NIVENS ENTERPRISE STAFF WRTIER

HIGH POINT – School district leaders are hoping that improved state test scores will mean that 10 schools will come off the list of low performers.

All 10 of last year’s low-performing schools made significant progress on end-of-grade tests, according results released Tuesday. Montlieu Elementary saw a 17.2 point jump and Oak Hill Elementary grew by 16.1 points.

Fairview Elementary, Parkview Elementary and T. W. Andrews High School also are on the list.

“Moving the schools off that list will not happen by coincidence,”

Beth Folger, chief academic officer, told the Board of Education. “We should celebrate, but we should not lose sight of what we need to do.”

In the Enrichment Region, all nine schools made positive gains on composite scores, and four of those grew by more than 10 points. Montlieu, Andrews High and Welborn Academy of Science and Technology are in the region where teachers focus on improving academic achievement.

A leading district goal is to have no low-performing schools by 2012 and for 81 percent of students to be proficient on EOG reading tests and 88 percent of students to be proficient on EOG math tests.

“We will have to accelerate at tre-

Furniture pioneer who played role in city, market dies

mendous speed to get this done,” Folger said.

School will begin Aug. 11 at Oak Hill Elementary with a new schedule, a new principal and some new teachers. The changes will be financed by a federal grant. Oak Hill Elementary has been one of the eight lowest performing schools in the state. The school board approved a turnaround plan. Improved scores show that a change may have already started, said board member Jeff Belton.

“There was some teaching and learning at the school,” Belton said.

“The staff did a good job and it was unfair how they were treated.” dnivens@hpe.com | 888-3626

Superintendent Mo Green. “Our district staff and students have shown an increased commitment to educational excellence, and their hard work is to be commended and celebrated.”

EOGs are given at the end of the year in grades three through eight in reading, math and science. End-of-course tests are given in eight subject areas for middle and high school students, with five of the eight tests counting as part of the new graduation standards set by the state.

The state education department will release official scores next month

TESTS

Results: 88 of 113 schools made positive gains on overall proficiency in end-of-grade testing, and 39 schools exceeded a five-percentage point gain.

Retest: This is the second year that EOG retest scores are included in the results and the first year an EOC retest score was included. to become a part of the Adequate Yearly Progress pass-fail report.

“We believe the official scores will be close to these,” Gongshu Zhang, district chief research and accountability officer, told the Board of Education.

The number of schools with high composite

scores – those with a total composite more than 90 – increased to 14 from 10 last year. Those with composites between 80 and 90 also increased to 22 schools from 16 in 2009. Also, the number of schools with low composite scores – those less than 50 – dropped from 15 last year to six in 2010.

On EOC tests, students produced gains in all eight subjects in 2010.

Each of the district’s 25 high schools had composite scores higher than 50. Five high schools had composites higher than 90, and six high schools had composites between 80 and 90. Two high schools, the Middle College at Bennett and High Point Central Academy, had gains of 20 points.

“That is almost a miracle,” Zhang said.

Seven high schools, including Ragsdale and Southwest, gained 5 to 10 points.

THOMASVILLE – Thomasville City Schools failed to make Adequate Yearly Progress at all four of the system’s schools for the 2009-10 school year, but made improvements on end-of-course and endof-grade exams when compared to the previous year, according to preliminary results released by the system Tuesday night.

James Carmichael, the system’s associate superintendent, released the preliminary data during the Thomasville Board of Education’s regular monthly meeting Tuesday. The N.C. Department of Public Instruction is expected to make the results official later this month.

“I feel good about how we did this year,” Carmichael said. “...

of physical science had a 30.9 decrease because the class had a new teacher, Carmichael said.

Algebra I, English I, biology and U.S. history made expected growth.

Carmichael said that all of the system’s school made growth or high growth status.

“Where we are not quite as happy is with AYP,” he said. “AYP doesn’t measure growth. AYP measures what percentage of your kids are proficient and there are standards for each of those.”

Keith Tobin, superintendent of Thomasville City Schools, said he couldn’t remember a time when all of the system’s schools made growth.

“I’m very proud of where we stand,” Tobin said.

HIGH POINT – A wellknown furniture leader with strong ties to the High Point Market and the city has died.

J. Clyde Hooker Jr., leader of Virginia-based Hooker Furniture from 1960 until 2000, died July 12. He was 89 years old.

The company describes its late leader as “one of the only remaining leaders from America’s golden industrial age,” noting that he was the son of Hooker Furniture founder J. Clyde Hooker Sr. At the age of four, Hooker Jr. blew the steam whistle to signal the first work day for the company in January 1925.

The company once operated two factories in North Carolina, including one in Pleasant Garden, but Hooker Jr.’s name can be found in High Point in several places. He has a block on the Walk of Fame at the High Point Market.

A space in High Point University’s Norton Hall – the J. Clyde Hooker Jr. Upper Level Atrium – also bears his name and was “given in his honor by friends whose lives he has touched,” according to a plaque in the building. The university also

offers the J. Clyde Hooker Jr. Scholarship.

“He was a furniture pioneer Hooker who loved HPU and was generous in his support for scholarships and academic programs,” said Nido Qubein, university president. “We will miss his leadership and his influence.”

Within the furniture industry, Hooker served as president of the Southern Furniture Manufacturers Association, now the High Pointbased American Home Furnishings Alliance.

Hooker Furniture has a permanent showroom in the International Home Furnishings Center.

Brian Casey, president of the High Point Market Authority, said Hooker Jr. was “an impressive individual.”

“He emulated all of the characteristics any good business leader shows,” Casey said. “He was the kind of individual who, even as he got older, never forgot a name.”

“Hooker Furniture has been a strong component to the High Point Market for many, many years,” Casey added.

Let’s rebuild downtown in its historical heart From Acts: “Your young men will see visions; your old men will dream dreams.”

As I decided to take a short drive to Greensboro on Saturday, I drove downtown and was amazed to see what the leaders there have done to their downtown. It was wonderful to see so many people actually walking from store to store, eating at the small cafes on the sidewalks, people at the downtown park talking just sitting and having a great time.

It is a community that has come together as one (“Your young men will see visions”). I drove back to my city High Point with, sadly to say, great disappointment downtown – no one talking on the sidewalks, no one able to stop at a little cafe with friends to talk to share a cool breeze under a small umbrella. Downtown was nothing but furniture showrooms – lights out, doors locked, empty sidewalks. Nothing. Almost a ghost town, except for a few cars zipping through.

I know that at one time the furniture market was a bigger event, but I have noticed not as many visitors as in the past. There are some who will disagree with me (“Your old men will dream dreams”). I say to High Point, wake up. Let’s get some of the old ideas and put them where they belong in the past. Let’s restore downtown High Point. Let’s elect young visionaries with fresh ideas and stand behind those ideas.

I truly believe that what was touted as a great event (the High Point Market) has had its day, or better put, its twice-a-year event.

Let’s move on. It can be done.

Population rise in city continues

Y

ou may have read where U.S. Census Bureau estimates show that High Point has grown faster during the last decade than any other municipality in North Carolina’s Piedmont Triad.

High Point (103,396 in 2009) now ranks eighth in total population between Cary (129,545) and Wilmington (100,192). High Point has shown 19.4 per cent growth for the decade.

If you have faith in the various estimates for the next 10 years, expect growth to 114,207 by 2015 and 125,544 by 2020 – figures reached by averaging the estimates of four major forecasters. On the high end, estimates climbed to 107,790 by the time the 2010 census is completed, 122,676 by 2015 and 137,442 by 2020 but, frankly, they seem to be stretching it a bit.

You may be interested in some other numbers: Males make up roughly 48 percent of High Point’s population, females 52 percent. Roughly 59 percent of the city’s population is white, 32 percent black and 4.9 percent (slightly more than 5,000) Hispanic. Median age for High Pointers is 34.4 years.

The growth rate during the last decade and population estimates the last couple of years bode well for High Point’s continued growth. At the same time, such rapid growth provides challenges/opportunities for government, schools, businesses, churches and a variety of other institutions. It also will bring about considerable cultural change, but worry not – that often is a positive in development of a community.

We’re well-positioned for the coming of the second decade of the 21st century.

What President Clinton said at Byrd’s funeral (about Byrd’s Klan membership) was, “He was a country boy from the hills and hollers of West Virginia, he was trying to get elected. And maybe he did something he shouldn’t have done, and he spent the rest of his life making it up. And that’s what a good person does.”

I have absolutely no use for bigots, but Byrd did quit at 35, and President Clinton was right, trying to make up for mistakes is a something a good person does. Also, Moschetti wrote (for comparison of media coverage) that Strom Thurmond was “also a segregationist in his early years, but never joined or recruited for the Klan.” Thurmond lived to be 100 (god rest), so Thurmond’s 60s and 70s “could” be considered his “early years.” Although Thurmond never did renounce his segregationist views (as Byrd had), Thurmond did vote at the

Maybe this page will change economic mind-set of some

S

ometimes you can read a book that will change your mind on some fundamental issue. Rarely, however, is there just one page that can undermine or destroy a widelyheld belief. But there is such a page – page 77 of the book “Out of Work” by Richard Vedder and Lowell Gallaway.

The widespread belief is that government intervention is the key to getting the country out of a serious economic downturn. The example often cited is President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s intervention, after the stock market crash of 1929 was followed by the Great Depression of the 1930s, with its massive and long-lasting unemployment.

This is more than just a question about history. Right here and right now there is a widespread belief that the unregulated market is what got us into our present economic predicament, and that the government must “do something” to get the economy moving again.

FDR’s intervention in the 1930s has often been cited by those who think this way.

What is on that one page in “Out of Work” that could change people’s minds? Just a simple table, giving unemployment rates for every month during the entire decade of the 1930s.

Those who think the stock market crash in October 1929 caused the huge unemployment rates of the 1930s will have a hard time reconciling that belief with the data in that table.

Although the big stock market crash occurred in October 1929, unemployment never reached double digits in any of the next 12 months after that crash. Unemployment peaked at 9 percent, two months after the stock market crashed – and then began drifting generally downward over the next six months, falling to 6.3 percent by June 1930.

This was what happened in the market, before the federal government decided to “do something.” What the government decided to do in June 1930 – against the advice of literally a thousand economists, who took out newspaper ads warning against it – was impose higher tariffs, in order to save American jobs by reducing imported goods.

This was the first massive federal intervention to rescue the economy, under President Herbert Hoover, who took pride in being the first president of the United States to intervene to try to get the economy out of an economic downturn.

Within six months after this government

intervention, unemployment shot up into double digits – and stayed in double digits in every month throughout the entire remainder of the decade of the 1930s, as the Roosevelt administration expanded federal intervention far beyond what Hoover OPINION had started.

If more government regulation Thomas of business is the magic answer Sowell that so many seem to think it is, ■■■ the whole history of the 1930s would have been different. An economic study in 2004 concluded that New Deal policies prolonged the Great Depression.

But the same story can be found on one page in “Out of Work.”

While the market produced a peak unemployment rate of 9 percent – briefly – after the stock market crash of 1929, unemployment shot up after massive federal interventions in the economy. It rose above 20 percent in 1932 and stayed above 20 percent for 23 consecutive months, beginning in the Hoover administration and continuing during the Roosevelt administration. .Those who are convinced that the government has to “do something” when the economy has a problem almost never bother to find out what actually happens when the government intervenes.

The very fact that we still remember the stock market crash of 1929 is remarkable, since there was a similar stock market crash in 1987 that most people have long since forgotten.

What was the difference between these two stock market crashes? The 1929 stock market crash was followed by the most catastrophic depression in American history, with as many as one-fourth of all American workers being unemployed. The 1987 stock market crash was followed by two decades of economic growth with low unemployment.

But that was only one difference. The other big difference was that the Reagan administration did not intervene in the economy after the 1987 stock market crash – despite many outcries in the media that the government should “do something.”

It was a World Cup ‘win’ for South Africa S

ports has a unique way of bringing out the best in humans. Beyond the sheer sense of competition, merit and sportsmanship, major events on the world stage seem to bring nations together in some ritualistic bond of community. A common language is shared, no matter the winner. The 2010 FIFA World Cup tournament was no different.

Only six other teams have tasted World Cup victory. Sunday marked the seventh, as Spain secured a hard-fought victory over the Netherlands to win its first title. And while only 86,000 fans watched the tournament in person in South Africa, over 700 million individuals across the globe tuned in for this final game.

All told, tournament hosts predict that some 38 billion will have watched some or all of the games from the first to final rounds. Those numbers alone should give you a sense of that community I mentioned above, and to have it all play out on the stage of a country, a continent, that is mired in poverty and economic blight is all the better.

While many football (“soccer� for you nonfans out there) connoisseurs were disappointed in the sloppy play during Sunday’s finale of Spain versus the Netherlands, kudos should be given to the host country for its flawless execution of the World Cup games.

Not only does the tourney put South Africa on the map, the economic impact will be

To put that into perspective, the Super Bowl that year netted only $183 million. Consider that 80 percent of all sponsorships OPINION in Africa are sports related, and one begins to understand that Armstrong South Africa, and Williams the larger continent, will see a nice economic shot in the arm.

You can bet that Spain wasn’t the only nation celebrating Sunday night. South Africa and its people should be proud of the tournament they hosted. In one of sport’s grandest events, the nation clearly stepped up and delivered.

takes awhile to fall in love, or more appropriately, get to know someone enough to know you are in love with them.

TEEN VIEW It’s not just the “Twilight�

Hailey saga that Hendrix spreads around â– â– â– the idea of being head-overheels in love in 30 seconds. Many books and movies nowadays involve a fast-paced love affair. Whether or not this has anything to do with the time limitations put on movies, I have no idea.

But what I do know is that when we read books about life-altering, time-stopping relationships, we tend to long for something we can’t have because most of the time it’s pretty unreachable. Not necessarily because love like that is impossible but because an author (or movie director) can describe it in a way that makes it sound better or look better than certain things are in reality.

I won’t pretend to be the expert in love because I’m not, but I think I can fairly assume that everything in love isn’t always smooth sailing. It can be hard, and sometimes it won’t be pretty like it is often displayed. Love must mean you see someone past their flaws and not just loving someone because they are flawless unlike as many people are described in love stories.

he movie “Twilight: Eclipse� was a huge success at the box office. For women, the main attraction may not be the movie itself or even the intrigue that comes with glittery vampires and beefed up werewolves. For a lot of people, the very idea of love can send them running to the movie theater or even flipping pages in a far-fetched book.

To help those who haven’t been sucked into the “Twilight� phenomenon, you should know that it mostly focuses on a love triangle where two mythical creatures (who just happen to be portrayed by two very good-looking actors) are so in love with one human girl they would gladly throw themselves in front of a speeding bus for her. But is such exaggerated affection a good thing to be broadcasting?

Love in general is a great thing. We don’t seem to have enough of it in our world today, unless you count the overwhelming amount that’s poured into literature and films. However, when you read love stories where they describe this impossible, can’t-live-without-them kind of love, you begin to believe that it’s the norm. Anything less than that becomes something you have to settle for when really it’s real life and not something that can be typed into a script in five minutes flat.

So have they succeeded in warping an idea of love and making anything that’s not devastatingly romantic seem inadequate? I’m not denying the possibility of love at first sight, but in everyday life, it

BP begins slowly choking off oil geyser NEW ORLEANS (AP) – In a potentially pivotal moment in the Gulf crisis, BP began closing valves Tuesday in a slow and methodical process that could finally choke off the geyser of crude at the bottom of the sea after three gloomy months and up to 180 million gallons spilled.

A new, tighter-fitting cap was lowered over the blown-out well Monday night. The next phase was to shut the openings in the 75-ton metal stack of pipes and valves gradually, one at a time, while watching pressure gauges to see if the cap would hold or any new leaks erupted.

The operation could last anywhere from six to 48 hours.

Federal budget gap tops $1 trillion WASHINGTON – The federal deficit has topped $1 trillion with three months still to go in the budget year, showing the lasting impact of the recession on the government’s finances.

In its monthly budget report, the Treasury Department said Tuesday that through the first nine months of this budget year, the deficit totals $1 trillion. That’s down 7.6 percent from the $1.09 trillion deficit run up during the same period a year ago.

Ex-NFL star enters plea in NY rape case NEW CITY, N.Y. – Hall of Fame linebacker Lawrence Taylor pleaded not guilty on Tuesday to an indictment that alleges he had sex with a 16-year-old girl in a New York hotel room.

The former NFL star allegedly paid $300 to the girl, a Bronx runaway, for their encounter in May. Taylor pleaded not guilty through his lawyer to third-degree rape, patronizing a prostitute, sexual abuse and endangering a child.

Official: 12th person detained in spy probe WASHINGTON – The U.S. has detained a 12th person in the Russian spy ring investigation, but doesn’t have enough evidence to charge him with a crime, four federal law enforcement officials said Tuesday.

The officials said the man, a Russian citizen, is being detained on immigration violations and is expected to be deported from the U.S.

Prosecution rests in Blagojevich trial CHICAGO – Federal prosecutors have rested their case in the corruption trial of ousted Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich.

But the former governor’s defense attorneys won’t start their case until Monday. U.S. District Judge James Zagel said Tuesday that he’d delay the trial to allow the defense time to prepare witnesses.

Obama HIV/AIDS plan calls for reducing infections

AP

A work boat (left) operates near the Q4000 drilling rig (right) in the area of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill on the Gulf of Mexico Tuesday. BP officials have placed a containment cap over the leak in hopes that the flow of oil will be diminished. offshore oil spill in U.S. history and one of the nation’s worst environmental disasters – stressed there were no guarantees, and they urged patience from Gulf residents.

Meanwhile, the White

House says President Barack Obama plans to visit the Gulf region again soon as efforts to contain a devastating oil spill continue.

Obama’s press secretary, Robert Gibbs, said

Obama will make the trip “in the not too distant future.” The president has made four visits to Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Florida since the oil disaster began in April.

WASHINGTON (AP) – The Obama administration unveiled a new national HIV and AIDS strategy Tuesday that officials said reflects a nation at a turning point in its fight against the epidemic.

While medical breakthroughs have greatly improved quality of life for the 1.1 million Americans living with HIV, the U.S. has struggled to lower the rate of new infections. The new strategy sets a goal of reducing new infections by 25 percent over the next five years.

About 56,000 people in the U.S. become infected each year, a rate that has held steady for about a decade.

“We’ve been keeping pace when we should be gaining ground,” said

Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius during a White House event announcing the strategy.

President Barack Obama was to discuss the new plan at a reception honoring the work of the HIV and AIDS community Tuesday evening.

The plan also calls for a renewed focus on increasing access to care, with the goal of getting treatment for 85 percent of patients within three months of their diagnosis; concentrating HIV prevention efforts at the highest-risk populations, which include gay and bisexual men as well as black Americans; and increasing education about the virus, even in communities with low rates of infection.

Students show off creative skills

BY DIANNA BELL ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – The artistic talents of Guilford County student will take center stage this week.

Guilford County Schools’ Summer Art Institute at Penn-Griffin School for the Arts will feature students’ artwork, dance, original orchestra pieces, music, and theater on Thursday at 6:30 p.m. for the Summer Showcase, which is free of charge.

Rising fifth- to ninthgraders were nominated by teachers and then selected to participate in a week-long arts immersion program outlined

by Superintendent Maurice Green in the GCS Strategic Plan 2012.

Nathan Street, GCS arts curriculum specialist, was put in charge of designing the program, which started Monday.

“There will be a gallery walkthrough to display the artwork of the students along with performances in the auditorium from the band, orchestra, chorus, dancers, and theatre participants,” Street said.

All performances and art pieces are based on the theme of this year’s Summer Art Institute: Around the World.

Each day, students were involved in all aspects of art from 9 a.m. until 1 p.m. working towards the public showcase. Instructors also had students writing and documenting throughout the week about what they had been learning.

The program is also taking place at Grimsley High School in Greensboro. This program was opened to students of all ages, parents and staff who had to audition to be cast in “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.”

Participants began rehearsing at the end of May to put on the show in conjunction with the Community Theatre of Greensboro.

The play will be held at the Grimsley High School auditorium July 16, 17, 22 and 24 at 7 p.m. as well as July 17, 18, 24 and 25 at 2 p.m. Tickets are $8 for students, $12 for adults, and $20 for Gold Circle, which insure a front and center seat, and can be purchased online at www. ctgso.org or by phone at (336) 333-7469.

DENTON – Motorcyclists will be revving their engines and hitting the road on Saturday at Denton FarmPark for the Hospice of Davidson County’s “Ride for Angels.”

The event typically sees around 200 riders, supporting Hospice’s mission to care for patients, and their families, who are confronted with a terminal illness.

The United Way agency provides care and services to these individuals, whether or not they have the ability to pay.

Because of this, Hospice relies heavily on the community’s support.

“Several years ago, we had a number of patients and their families who shared with their Hospice caregivers about missing the feeling they got from riding their motorcycles,” said Laura Owen, director of communications and development for Hospice of Davidson County. “They asked us if we’d ever thought of doing a ride as a fundraiser and it grew from there.”

Bikers of all ages come out to ride in memory of a loved one and support Hospice’s cause.

“Ride for Angels” is in its third year. Last year, the event raised $8,000, which is the equivalent of 58 days of home care or two weeks of care in the Hospice House. The goal for this year’s ride is to hopefully exceed $10,000.

Vendors will also be on hand, providing jewelry, leather goods and biker apparel for purchase. Southern Breeze, a country band, will provide the crowd with music from the ‘70s and ‘80s along with hits from the Top 40 list. “The public is invited to come join the event to check out the vendors, bikes, and music,” Owen said.

The 11⁄2-hour ride begins at 10:30. Pre-registration is $15 and includes a hot dog lunch. The form can be found online at Hospice of Davidson County’s website, www. hospiceofdavidson.org, under the ‘News and Events’ link. The gates open at 8:30 for day-of registration, which is $20.

YMCA changes national moniker to Y

BY JORDAN HOWSE ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – The YMCA has shortened its name and is now know only as “the Y.” Locations in more than 10,000 communities across the country, including High Point have changed their name and logo for the first branding change in 43 years.

The Chicago-based U.S. nonprofit announced the change Monday.

The switch comes after more than two years of research indicating than many people don’t understand what the group does and it wants to increase their impact nationwide.

The group’s mission is to strengthen communities by focusing on youth development, healthy living and social responsibility.

The new name applies to the group nationally, but individual locations and branches will still be referred to as YMCAs such as YMCA of Greater High Point.

George Crooker, the executive director of the Hartley Drive Family YMCA in High Point, said the ideology and mission of the Y have

not changed, just the logo.

This is the sixth logo since the organization’s inception. Officials with the Y say they hope the new logo will be more inviting. The refreshed logo has multiple color options and a new, contemporary look. It reflects the vibrancy of the Y and the diversity of the communities it serves. The new logo’s bold, active and welcoming shape symbolizes the Y’s commitment to personal and social progress.

Carlvena Foster, executive director of the Carl Chavis Memorial Branch YMCA in High Point said the new logo represents diversity.

“The color options represent how diverse each YMCA is,” Foster said. “The bend bar means moving forward, and we are definitely moving forward.”

The logo change does not affect the YWCA because they are two separate organizations.

Crooker said he didn’t notice how many logos were all over his location but the transition is already under way and should be completed within five years.

Forsyth OKs bid for 400-worker Caterpillar plant WINSTON-SALEM (AP) – North Carolina officials are assembling a package of tax breaks and other incentives worth up to $75 million to lure a new Caterpillar Inc. factory that would employ nearly 400 workers.

At stake is a proposed $426 million factory where Caterpillar would manufacture and test earth-moving and agricultural equipment.

The plant would employ about 390 as well as about 120 contract workers, the WinstonSalem Journal reported Tuesday.

Forsyth County’s board of commissioners voted unanimously Monday to offer Caterpillar $10.2 million in incentives.

The state Commerce Department would not confirm any discussions business recruiters were having with any particular company.

“The kinds of companies that we’re competing for are very good

employers that create quality jobs and restore tax breaks in our communities,” Deputy Commerce Secretary Dale Carroll told The Associated Press.

Winston-Salem is competing with Montgomery, Ala., and Spartanburg, S.C., for the plant the heavy-equipment maker would build on 100 acres beside the illfated Dell Inc. computer-assembly plant, the newspaper reported.

Dell chose the site in 2004, lured by more than $300 million in incentives in exchange for a pledge to create at least 1,500 jobs. Four years after opening, Dell announced it would close the plant, putting 900 people out of work. Most state incentives were never paid, and Dell refunded local governments their $26 million in upfront payments.

Since then, Dell has postponed the plant’s closing date four times, pushing it into next year.

CAROLINAS, ABBY THE HIGH POINT ENTERPRISE WEDNESDAY, JULY 14, 2010 www.hpe.com

Mayoral candidate says he was encouraged to run by businesspeople HIGH POINT – For the first time in five years, High Point will have a contested mayor’s race this fall.

Local attorney Jay Wagner last week became the second of two residents to challenge Mayor Becky Smothers when he announced his intention to run for the city’s top elected post. Wagner, 42, said he was approached last summer by a group comprised of a cross section of local businesspeople who share his concerns about the city and his vision for its future. Wagner said he had never thought about running and was reluctant to do so, but the group persisted. “The biggest thing I think facing the city right now is that we have a lack of focus on our long-term economic development policy,� he said.

Wagner argues that a more “comprehensive� approach to economic development is needed that focuses on bringing employment to areas of the city that need it,

AT A GLANCE...

----

Jay Wagner, a partner with the High Point law firm Fisher, Clinard & Cornwell, PLLC, joins Sunnybrook Street resident Dwayne Hemingway-El as challengers to incumbent Mayor Becky Smothers, who was unopposed two years ago. Smothers first became mayor 18 years ago after several terms as a council member. She’s been elected mayor six times since 1992.

Wagner’s community service includes The City Project, for which he serves as vice chairman; the Core City Plan Steering Committee; High Point’s Planning & Zoning Commission from 2003-2010 (Chairman, 2006-2007, 2008-2009); chairman of the Uptowne Association and a member of the city’s Development Ordinance Advisory Committee. supporting existing businesses and enlisting the help of the private sector.

The current approach has been too focused on simply trying to increase the city’s tax base by recruiting new industries, in his view.

Along with this, more needs to be done to encourage employees of companies the city recruits to become involved in the community, which he argues is not happening enough. “To me, that’s sort of a symptom of a city that is

not economically healthy, because it’s those peple who support your charities and arts scene and things that are vital to the overall quality of life.

I think we’re seeing that a lot of those things are hurting in High Point,� he said.

Wagner was also prompted to run by a couple of issues that illustrate the need for the city’s leaders to “do a better job protecting the taxpayers’ money,� he said. “I think the City Council in the last decade has

made some head-scratching decisions.�

One was the purchase of the former Piedmont Natural Gas property on Northpoint Avenue to house city offices for what he termed was more than the property’s appraised value.

The other was the city’s red-light camera program, which was shut down after courts ruled that fines and penalties collected through the system must go to Guilford County Schools. The ruling determined that the city owed the district $1.45 million.

Wagner listed lobbying state lawmakers for a N.C. Senate district that takes in all High Point as another priority. He said the city must have its voice heard when the state legislature takes up the redistricting process following this year’s census. “The city basically has been gerrymandered to benefit the areas around us,� he said. “We need to have the courage to go to Raleigh and beat on some doors to make sure this changes.� pkimbrough@hpe.com | 888-3531

Report: ABC system manager took gifts from distributors MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

RALEIGH – The General Manager of Greensboro’s ABC system took meals, travel, golf outings, tickets to football games and bottles of spirits from liquor distributors with whom the board does business, according to a report by state ALE investigators.

The report is 103 pages, more with exhibits, and details actions by Katie Alley, who runs

the city’s ABC system. It mainly relies on e-mails and interviews with employees and liquor industry representatives about incidents over the past three years.

Investigators say Alley took more than 70 meals from liquor industry representatives and included quotes in their report from employees who said they were afraid Alley would retaliate if they gave information about her actions to law enforce-

ment. “Alley willingly accepted and, at time, overtly solicited benefits and gratuities while demanding her subordinates not request or accept anything of value from liquor vendor representatives,� the report said.

Officials with the state ABC Commission, which oversees the local board and commissioned the investigation, did not have a comment Tuesday.

Bi-sexual past overshadows relationship

D

ear Abby: My girlfriend, “Donna,� and I have shared a wonderful relationship for nearly three years. During her college days she had a sexual encounter with her best female friend. (They had been friends since high school.)

Although they graduated from college five years ago, they continue to see each other. Donna tells me that nothing sexual goes on between them.

Personally, I don’t trust her friend. Please help me get over this. – Tony in Whittier Dear Tony: Forget about not trusting Donna’s longtime friend.

Do you trust Donna?

You have been together nearly three years and obviously, you talk about everything. Ask her if, after experimenting with her friend, she still has hankerings in that direction. If the answer is no, believe her.

Dear Abby: I have been in a relationship with a lady for the past few months. How do I tell her that I want out without hurting her badly?

I have tried a couple of times to end things, but she gets hysterical, starts crying and accuses me of wanting someone else, which is not true. Please give me some advice. – In A Fix, Pascagoula, Miss.

Dear In A Fix: If you

want out, prepare yourself for her emotional reaction.

As you can see, she ADVICE does not take this Dear kind of Abby news well. ■■■Tell her again that you want to end the relationship. When she starts crying and accusing you of wanting someone else, hand her a tissue and tell her you think she’s “great,� but you’re not ready to settle down with anyone right now.

Dear Abby: My husband doesn’t like to go to funerals. In the 25 years we have been together, I think he has only been to three – and that was only because he had been asked to be a pallbearer.

Fortunately, we haven’t had to deal with many losses on either side of the family.

We were talking recently and he shared that he would not go to his own mother’s funeral!

They have a very close relationship, and he explained that he only wants to remember her in life, not in a coffin. I feel he should set aside his own uncomfortable feelings and be there for the rest of the family – especially his brothers and sisters. What do you think? – Pam In Springfield, Ohio

Dear Pam: Your husband’s feelings may change when the inevitable happens. However, whatever he decides – and I cannot stress this strongly enough – you should back him up, be there for him and not judge him.

Dear Abby: I recently completed my first year of college. During the year, I met my current boyfriend. My goal this summer is to have him meet my parents. Because we live six hours apart, I thought it would be best if he stayed over at my parents’ house – in the guest room, of course.

My father objected to it, but said that if it were deemed acceptable by you, he would reconsider. What do you say, Abby? Is there really a problem with having one’s boyfriend sleep over at one’s parents’ house? – Curious Co- Ed Dear Curious Co-ed: If the sleeping accommodations are as you have described – and as long as there isn’t any hankypanky going on in the wee hours of the morning – I see no problem with it.

Police called to home 2 hours before woman fatally stabbed MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

GREENSBORO – Police say officers were dispatched twice Tuesday morning to the home where a woman was fatally stabbed and were there less than two hours before she was assaulted.

Gwendolyn Morrison, 55, died at Moses Cone Hospital after being stabbed at a home at 1 Carpenter Court around 2:30 a.m.

Her nephew, 21-yearold Daniel Wayne Morrison, has been arrested and charged with firstdegree murder in her death.

According to Capt. Janice Rogers with Greensboro police, officers were called twice to the home early Tuesday for incidents related to Daniel Morrison.

The first call came about 12:45 a.m. when officers responded to reports of someone beating on the front door of the residence, which is owned by Daniel Morrison’s grandmother. “Officers responded and talked to the grandmother, and she said he could come in and go to bed,� Rogers said. “They left and got another call around 2ish.

Once the nephew had gotten inside the residence he got in an altercation with Gwendolyn Morrison.�

Rogers said at some point Daniel Morrison grabbed a knife and

stabbed his aunt once near the kitchen.

He was arrested without incident once police arrived.

He received minor injuries from the altercation and was treated at the hospital and released before being taken to the Guilford County jail.

He faces charges of first-degree murder and is being held without bond. No further charges are anticipated.

It is unclear what prompted the stabbing or arguments, though police believe alcohol was involved.

Rogers said Gwendolyn Morrison’s husband and the suspect’s grandmother were home and awake at the time of the stabbing, though she wouldn’t comment on what they may have witnessed.

A man who answered the door at the home Tuesday afternoon said the family has no comment.

Daniel Morrison’s criminal history shows previous convictions on charges of assault on a female, breaking and entering, larceny and drug possession dating back to 2006 in Guilford and Randolph counties.

Each conviction resulted in him being sentenced to probation.

Since August 2009, police were dispatched to the home a total of four times prior to Tuesday, twice each for domestic disputes and vandalism.

MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

RALEIGH – Raleigh is preparing for the arrival of plug-in electric cars by making it easier for homeowners to get a city permit for rechargers.

A city permit would have required at least three days, so the city has created a streamlined procedure that will take just one hour, said Frank Olafson, permits office administrator for Raleigh.

Recharging an electric car puts a heavy demand on a home’s electrical wiring and could require modifications and upgrades to accommodate a 220-volt outlet.

The Wall Street Journal reported Monday that Nissan, which is introducing the all-electric Leaf automobile this year, lobbied Raleigh officials to make the change. Nissan’s goal is to become the first massmarketer of electric cars, but that goal depends on hassle-free permits for recharging stations.

Using a 220-volt outlet as opposed to a standard 120-volt outlet reduces recharging time from 20 hours to 8 hours. But outfitting garages with more powerful outlets -the kind used by electric dryers and other heavyduty appliances -- raises safety concerns for building inspectors and code enforcement officers.

orothy Jenkins Simpson grew up in Ahoskie, where her family raised tobacco, corn, cotton and peanuts.

Her parents also raised 11 children who blossomed into responsible, self-sacrificing adults. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We were not allowed to be selfish.

We had to share everything,â&#x20AC;?

Simpson said.

So when Simpsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s younger ABOVE sister, Jean, AND participated BEYOND in a special event at Patty Jo school and Sawvel wanted to â&#x2013; â&#x2013; â&#x2013; swap her tattered footwear for Simpsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new shoes, Simpson traded. It took years for Simpson to appreciate fully the value of saving her sisterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dignity. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was a hard lesson, but we learned to put more value on people than on possessions,â&#x20AC;? Simpson said.

The adults in this farming community lived by the same rule. Women fed their neighborsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; families when newborns arrived, and men sacrificed valuable time and energy to help with chores when a farmer was sick or injured.

In a good year, Simpson was thrilled to receive two new dresses and one pair of shoes. In a bad year, the family hunkered down and subsisted on dried beans, black-eyed peas and corned (salted) herring. Here too, a lesson was learned.

Simpsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s parents never blamed the economy or the government. Instead, they offered thanks. â&#x20AC;&#x153;No matter how little we had, my mom got down on her knees and thanked God for giving us the necessities of life,â&#x20AC;? Simpson said.

Farm life was hard but fun. Simpson loved the excitement of the harvest and bottle-feeding the baby animals. The thing she disliked most about farming was the dirt. So at a young age, Simpson made a career choice. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I went to the doctorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office and saw the nurses in their crisp white dresses and bright white shoes, and I knew that I wanted to be a nurse,â&#x20AC;? Simpson said.

She became a certified nursing assistant to help her husband rear the children. As a CNA, Simpson found herself helping those in poor health. And, oddly, these people responded to lifeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s simple blessings in the same way as people who are financially poor. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I would ask them simple things, like, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;What color do you want to wear today?â&#x20AC;&#x2122; and give them back as much control in their lives as possible. And, they were so thankful for this,â&#x20AC;?

Simpson said.

In fact, the key to her happiness in her 30-year career was simple. Simpson asked herself: How would I want to be treated if I were in their shoes? â&#x20AC;&#x153;My work was so fulfilling that it was the only work that I wanted to do,â&#x20AC;?

Simpson said.

Celiac disease comes in many disguises

D

ear Dr. Donohue: I am a 32-year-old woman, married with two children. For this entire year, I have not been myself. I have had loose stools at least twice a day and have lost 20 pounds without trying. Finally, my husband insisted I see a doctor.

I did, and that doctor sent me to a gastroenterologist, who diagnosed celiac disease. No one in my family has had it, and no one has heard of it. I have just started a gluten-free diet. Can you tell me more about it?

– K.M.

BLONDIE

B.C.

When celiac disease was discussed in medical school, my reaction was: Here comes another illness I’ll never see. I was very wrong. Celiac disease is quite common.

Estimates say that one in 113 people has it. In a population of more than 300 million, that amounts to a lot of people.

It’s an illness brought on by the immune system, whose attack on the small intestine makes gluten trigger diarrhea, weight loss and many other conditions brought about because of poor absorption of things like iron and calcium. The presenting problem with some celiac patients is not digestive symptoms, but is osteoporosis because of calcium deficiency or anemia because of iron

deficiency.

The celiac diagnosis is made by finding special antibodies in the blood HEALTH and by a biopsy of Dr. Paul the small Donohue intestine.

■■■ Strict avoidance of gluten – a protein found in wheat, barley and rye – usually reverses all the signs and symptoms of this illness. For some, oats can be a problem too.

Once a celiac patient is free of gluten exposure, symptoms usually remit in weeks to months.

You need help mastering the gluten-free diet.

A dietitian can instruct you on what you can and cannot eat and can tell you hidden sources of gluten. Corn, rice, legumes, nuts, potatoes, soy and tapioca are substitutes for the banned grains. Meats are not a problem. It sounds simple in these few sentences. It is not so simple. The Celiac Disease Foundation is an ally that can help you understand all aspects of this illness. The foundation’s website is www.celiac.org, and the phone number is 818-9902354.

Dear Dr. Donohue: I

was recently hospitalized for swelling and redness of my legs, with an itchy rash and painful joints. I was taking two diuretics at that time, Bumex and Zaroxolyn. The doctors took me off all medicines. They were going to start a small dose of Bumex again when the doctor in charge asked if I am allergic to sulfa drugs. I said, “Yes.” He said, “Maybe we have found the cause.” Many diuretics are related to sulfa. I stayed off the medicines, and my symptoms started to clear.

Why wasn’t I told of this possible allergy? I think everyone who takes diuretics should know about this. – F.H. Bumex (bumetanide) and Zaroxolyn (metolazone) have a chemical structure similar to sulfa. Many other diuretics have the same structure.

They can, therefore, cause an allergic reaction for people who have a sulfa allergy. They also can cause a similar reaction in people without a sulfa allergy.

I’m glad your problem was discovered.

DR. DONOHUE regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, 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

Beef and Potato Salad with Smoky Chipotle, found within Rick Bayless’ new cookbook, can be an appetizer, main course or even taco filling.

Rick Bayless throws a party with new cookbook

BY MICHELE KAYAL FOR THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

R

ick Bayless has spent three decades teasing out the secrets of Mexican cooking, from street stall grub to high-end restaurant fare. Now the Chicago restaurateur captures the essence of a grand Mexican party in “Fiesta at Rick’s (W.W. Norton, 2010).”

This sixth cookbook by Bayless turns classics upside down while actually enhancing their authenticity, with more than 150 recipes that will guide you from a pre-dinner drinks party to a pa-

ella extravaganza for the whole neighborhood.

Thought you knew guacamole?

Think again. Bayless serves up a half-dozen recipes for the iconic dip that incorporate items such as smoky bacon, toasted pumpkin seeds or subtly sweet mango puree.

Margaritas are freshened with blood orange or cucumber, and gussied up with Champagne for the perfect brunch cocktail.

Little tips – for instance, skip the salted rim and shake your sodium directly into the drink – make you look like a fiesta master. And soft drinks made from puckery tamarind, fresh

watermelon, or rice and almonds bring Mexico to your backyard.

In chapters arranged by type of dish – for instance, “nibbles” or tapas, or street food – Bayless takes home cooks from basic lime-and-onion ceviche to red chili tuna tartare, from butterflied whole fish marinated in chilies, garlic and soy sauce to a tequila-spiked paella for 30.

And who knew that potato salad – that staple of the American summer picnic – could be reinvented with beef, avocado and smoky chipotles?

Bayless espouses fresh ingredients and painstaking techniques, but aspiring chefs with more

dreams than time will appreciate his concession to daily realities with substitutions like frozen tamarind for fresh, and recipes such as “easy” mole, made in the slow-cooker.

Full-blown fiesta menus end each chapter, offering step-bystep plans for a party, including the luxury guacamole bar that helped Bayless win the first season of “Top Chef Masters.” There’s even a playlist, that unfortunate development in cookbook publishing that requires chefs to divulge what music they (or their public relations people) think goes best with their food.

Beef and Potato Salad with Smoky Chipotle This meaty potato salad from central Mexico is traditionally served as an appetizer, main course or taco filling, says Rick Bayless. He says the salad can be prepared a day or two ahead, then refrigerated. Let stand at room temperature for an hour before serving. Also, if making ahead, add the avocado only just before serving.

Start to Finish: 1 hour Servings: 8

Rick Bayless has spent three decades learning the secrets of Mexican cooking.

12 ounces stewing beef, cut into 1-inch cubes 2 cloves garlic, chopped Kosher salt, to taste 3 medium boiling potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces 3 tablespoons cider vinegar 2 to 3 canned chipotle chilies in adobo, stemmed, seeded and thinly sliced 1 small red onion, cut into 1/4-inch dice 3 tablespoons olive oil 1 medium avocado, peeled, pitted and cut into 1/4-inch dice

In a medium saucepan over high, bring 1 quart of water to a boil. Add the beef, garlic and 1 teaspoon of salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low. Skim off any foam that rises during the first few minutes of simmering. Partially cover and simmer until the meat is tender enough to fall apart.

With a slotted spoon, remove the meat to a plate to cool, reserving the liquid in the pan.

Add the potatoes to the pan, if necessary adding additional water to ensure the ensure the potatoes are covered covered. Simmer over medium heat until tender, about 15 minutes. With a slotted spoon, scoop the potatoes into a medium bowl and sprinkle with the vinegar.

Break up the meat and stir it into the potatoes, along with the chipotles, onion and olive oil. Allow it to cool completely.

Season with salt. Cover and refrigerate until about 1 hour before serving.

Just before serving, stir in the avocado.

I found Cy the Cynic in the club lounge, writing his monthly alimony check.

“How come you got divorced?” I asked.

“Irreconcilable differences,” the Cynic said tersely. “She was melting down her wedding band to make a bullet.”

Today’s deal did Cy’s bank balance no good.

Against Cy’s 3NT, West led the four of spades. Cy played low from dummy, and East took the queen and returned a spade. Cy next led the ace and a low club, and West won and ran his spades for down one.

SUFFERING “When I split with my ex-wife,” Cy told me, “the judge wiped her tears with my checkbook. My checkbook has been suffering ever since.”

Cy should have been plus 630 points. Assuming he can play the clubs for one loser, he is at risk only if West has five spades. But if West had K-Q-J-4-2, he would have led the king. In case East has a doubleton honor or two honors, Cy should play dummy’s ace at Trick One. As the cards lie, the defenders’ spade tricks are blocked, and

HOROSCOPE

CROSSWORD

Wednesday, July 14, 2010 CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Matthew Fox, 44; Jackie Earle Haley, 49; Jane Lynch, 50; Polly Bergen, 80 HAPPY BIRTHDAY: It is a good year to reassess your situation, financially, professionally and economically. You have to be smart about the future. Look at getting the most for the least and you will end up being a leader, instead of a follower. Recognize what you can do yourself and what you need help doing. Your numbers are 4, 11, 16, 21, 27, 38, 41 ARIES (March 21-April 19): An emotional matter that concerns one of your peers can upset matters at work and at home. Strive for perfection in all that you do to avoid criticism. Don’t limit your options because you don’t think you have enough experience. ★★★★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Matters pertaining to children or social acquaintances will raise some doubt. Be direct. Work responsibilities may get to you but your ability to deal with matters efficiently will lead to a better position and greater income. ★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Expand your interests, turning something you enjoy doing into a profitable endeavor. Don’t make an impulsive decision about someone. This person is likely to have something to offer you that you will value in the future. ★★★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): You need to be on your toes and ready to make changes if called for. Love is on the rise, so alterations at home that accommodate your personal needs should be put into play. Don’t let uncertainty confuse you. ★★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You cannot let someone else redirect you for his or her own purposes. Take control of your financial situation as well as your prospects for the future. Emotional issues will be costly if you lend cash or possessions. ★★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You can form an alliance with someone who shares your issues of concern. A personal matter can be taken care of with a little bit of a push on your part. Once you know what you want, don’t be afraid to ask. ★★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Be smart about the way you do things, especially if it will affect people you are close to. Taking matters into your own hands without getting the approval of others will have its repercussions. A partnership may be in jeopardy if you overreact or are indulgent. ★★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You have something to offer that you’ve been sitting on because you don’t think it’s ready. You are losing valuable time while others pass you by. Get on with whatever you’ve been working toward and present and promote. ★★★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): There is the chance you’ll meet with opposition, emotional deception, added burdens and anguish if you don’t pull your weight. Find a way to turn an investment into a valuable commodity. Consider real estate or projects that can make money from home. ★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You cannot lose as long as you don’t hesitate. You have plenty of passion, lots of interest and certainly the opportunity to bring people together and to turn something small into something large. Money is in the picture and a loving partnership is apparent. ★★★★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You have more to offer than you realize. Let your experience speak for itself. You will be offered favors for your knowledge and will impress someone who interests you as a partner. ★★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): There is work to be done but with it comes satisfaction, recognition and advancement. You have what it takes to step into a leadership position. The time to make both professional and personal change is now. ★★★

Cy makes an overtrick.

DAILY QUESTION You hold: S K J 8 4 2 H 6 3 2 D 9 5 2 C K 7. Your partner opens one heart.

The next player passes.

What do you say?

ANSWER: To respond one spade would be shortsighted. If partner next bid two clubs, your return to two hearts would show a weak hand with only a tolerance for hearts, not three-card support. Raise directly to two hearts, confirming a trump suit.

Your raise will also prevent an opponent from overcalling in a minor suit at the level of two.

South dealer N-S vulnerable

ONE STAR: It’s best to avoid conflicts; 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.

Yanks lose The Boss NEW YORK (AP) — George Steinbrenner, whose big wallet and win-at-all-cost attitude whipped the New York Yankees into a billiondollar sports empire, died Tuesday. He had just celebrated his 80th birthday July 4.

Steinbrenner had a heart attack, was taken to St. Joseph’s Hospital in Tampa, Fla., and died at about 6:30 a.m, a person close to the owner told The Associated Press. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the team had not disclosed those details.

“George was ’The Boss,’ make no mistake,” Hall of Famer Yogi Berra said.

“He built the Yankees into champions, and that’s something nobody can ever deny. He was a very generous, caring, passionate man. George and I had our differences, but who didn’t? We became great friends over the last decade and I will miss him very much.”

In 37-plus seasons as owner, Steinbrenner led the Yankees to seven World Series championships, 11 American League pennants and 16 AL East titles.

“He was and always will

be as much of a New York Yankee as Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Joe DiMaggio, Mickey Mantle, Yogi Berra, Whitey Ford and all of the other Yankee legends,” baseball commissioner Bud Selig said.

“Although we would have disagreements over the years, they never interfered with our friendship and commitment to each other. Our friendship was built on loyalty and trust and it never wavered.”

New York was 11 years removed from its last championship when Steinbrenner headed a group that bought the team from CBS Inc. on Jan. 3, 1973, for about $10 million.

He ruled with obsessive dedication to detail, overseeing everything from trades to the airblowers that kept his ballparks spotless. He admittedly was overbearing, screaming at all from commissioners to managers to secretaries.

His reign was interrupted for suspensions, including a 15-month ban in 1974 after his guilty plea to conspiring to make illegal contributions to President Richard Nixon’s re-election campaign. He was pardoned 15 years later by President Ronald Reagan.

AP

A groundskeeper is dwarfed by a giant video display in memoriam for New York Yankees principal owner George M. Steinbrenner in center field at Yankee Stadium, after Steinbrenner died Tuesday.

Let’s take stock at midseason C

hicagoland Speedway is gaining a reputation for producing feel-good stories.

Last season, it was the scene of 50something Mark Martin giving the older set something to cheer when he posted his fourth of five 2009 wins.

Saturday night, the 1.5-mile track 60 miles from the Windy City was the setting for one of the high points of the season when David Reutimann notched what many would consider his first legitimate Cup win, even though he prevailed SPORTS in the rain-shortened edition of the Coca-Cola 600 last Greer season.

Smith The victory is just the sort of ■■■ thing that might help reconnect NASCAR with its blue-collar, average Joe fan base. Reutimann is that type of guy, an unpretentious 40-year-old who slogged his way from racing on the dirt tracks of his native Florida in the shadow of his father, dirt-track racing legend Buzzie Reutimann and now enjoys building cars for his dad in his spare time.

He’s more proof that guys who came up racing on the small ovals in the South and Midwest, guys like late-model refugee Denny Hamlin and Kansas dirt-tracker Clint Bowyer, can still come through the ranks and make their mark in the big time.

The victory wasn’t unexpected given Reutimann flirted with making the Chase for the Championship last season and had a number of strong runs this season ruined by mechanical failures or wrecks. It provided another twist as the tour heads into its mid-

AP

David Reutimann celebrates with his crew members in Victory Lane after scoring a popular victory Saturday at Chicagoland Speedway. season open date, which gives us the opportunity to review the action to date.

Best move goes to NASCAR trying to correct some of the missteps of recent seasons with its decisions to replace the wing on the new generation car with the traditional blade spoiler, introduction of more stocklooking body styles on the new Nationwide car and announcing the “have at it boys” policy, which returns the sport to the way things were handled for most of its history.

Comeback team of the year: Most certainly goes to Richard Childress Racing – which transformed from a nonfactor for most of 2009 into a team that can boast the points leader and two-time winner Kevin Harvick and Chase contenders Jeff Burton (who has let at least three wins slip through his fingers) and Bowyer.

Best team: Hard to choose from among Hendrick Motorsports, Joe Gibbs Racing

and RCR. All five of Hendrick’s victories belong to Jimmie Johnson, while Gibbs has seven (five by Hamlin, two by Kyle Busch).

Hendrick can also boast of having the second and third place drivers in points with Jeff Gordon and Johnson, but Gordon is winless and Johnson has been in something of a slump for most of the past two months. And Mark Martin and Dale Earnhardt Jr. have been nonfactors.

Biggest disappointment: Roush-Fenway Racing, still winless and not competitive on a number of occasions. Runner-up: Stewart-Haas Racing. Got an overtime win from Ryan Newman but Tony Stewart hasn’t been much of a contender this year after four wins last season.

Hanging in there: Kurt Busch, with two victories and almost certain to make the Chase as the only Penske Racing driver and Dodge driver that is a consistent front runner.

Worst judgment: Carl Edwards, for returning to the track more than 100 laps down and sending Brad Keselowski flying into the wall at Atlanta Motor Speedway in a retaliatory move.

Daddy’s boy: Joey Logano, trying to get in Kevin Harvick’s face after a late spin at Pocono while being egged on by his father.

Totally unexpected: Brian Vickers being sidelined for the rest of the season by blood clots in May. Red Bull Racing’s No. 83 hasn’t been the same with replacement drivers, indicating Vickers might be a lot better than he was given credit for being.

Bob McKillop spent his 60th birthday in Austria on Tuesday, where one of his Davidson players had his Israeli teammates sing happy birthday to him in Yiddish.

On Wednesday, McKillop will sit in the stands at the European under-20 championships as Jake Cohen and Israel face future Davidson player Chris Czerapowicz and Sweden.

Later that night, he’ll watch another incoming Davidson freshman, Ali Mackay, lead Great Britain against Denmark.

McKillop’s best season at Davidson may have come from the sensational play of Stephen Curry from nearby Charlotte, but the coach’s longterm, steady success at the school is due in large part by his overseas recruiting.

“My first exposure to Europe was in 1981 when I was invited to run a camp in Italy,” McKillop said in a phone interview Tuesday. “After I ran a camp I was invited to run a clinic in Italy and it just mushroomed. You’re talking close to 30 years I’ve been involved. It’s been an eye-opening experience for me, a great experience for me.”

This trip is a little more special, with three of his players competing in the same tournament. The 6-foot-6 Czerapowicz, the MVP of last year’s under18 European championships, leads Davidson’s incoming recruiting class.

Mackay, a 6-10 big man, is also expected to contribute as Davidson looks to rebound.

That’s a who’s who of golf legends.

I expect lots of fun and laughter, plus a ton of great shotmaking, in this special event.

Enjoy golf fans, because we’re unlikely to see a collection of links stars like this again.

REACTION TO GEORGE STEINBRENNERâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S DEATH

â&#x20AC;&#x201C;

BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Quotes on New York Yankees owner George Steinbrenner, who died Tuesday at age 80: â&#x20AC;&#x153;George was a giant of the game and his devotion to baseball was surpassed only by his devotion to his family and his beloved New York Yankees. He was and always will be as much of a New York Yankee as Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Joe DiMaggio, Mickey Mantle, Yogi Berra, Whitey Ford and all of the other Yankee legends. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have known George ever since he entered the game in 1972. He was my dear friend for nearly four decades. Although we would have disagreements over the years, they never interfered with our friendship and commitment to each other. Our friendship was built on loyalty and trust and it never wavered.

We were allies and friends in the truest sense of the words.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; baseball commissioner Bud Selig. â&#x20AC;&#x153;George was â&#x20AC;&#x2122;The Boss,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; make no mistake. He built the Yankees into champions and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something nobody can ever deny. He was a very generous, caring, passionate man. George and I had our differences, but who didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t? We became great friends over the last decade and I will miss him very much.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Hall of Fame catcher Yogi Berra. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I will always remember George Steinbrenner as a passionate man, a tough boss, a true visionary, a great humanitarian, and a dear friend. I will be forever grateful that he trusted me with his Yankees for 12 years.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Los Angeles Dodgers manager Joe Torre. â&#x20AC;&#x153;George was like a father figure to me. He treated me well, he treated me fair and he gave me a wonderful opportunity to play and manage the game we all love.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Chicago Cubs manager Lou Piniella. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He was a champion who made New York a better place, and who always gave back to the city he loved. He has left an indelible legacy on the Yankees, on baseball, and on our city, and he leaves us in the only way that would be appropriate: as a reigning world champion.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I remember a man driven to succeed. He was the owner, â&#x20AC;&#x2122;The Bossâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and number one fan of the Yankees.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Dodgers hitting coach and former Yankees star Don Mattingly. â&#x20AC;&#x153;His impact on the game is impossible to measure.

If you were a Yankee fan there was no better owner because he would do anything at any cost to put the best team on the field.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Rays advisor Don Zimmer. â&#x20AC;&#x153;George Steinbrennerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s passion for the game of baseball helped revive one of the gameâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most storied franchises, and in the process ushered in the modern era of baseball business operations. Mr. Steinbrenner understood and embraced the power of the players, and he put this knowledge to good use in establishing the Yankees as one of the sports worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most iconic brands.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Michael Weiner, the executive director of the Major League Baseball Players Association.

Yarbrough gains CPL award ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

Alex Yarbrough of Thomasville was named the Coastal Plain Leagueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hitter of the week for the week ending July 4. Gastoniaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Robert Jeroszko was named pitcher of the week.

Yarbrough, who just finished his freshman year at Mississippi, started in all seven games for the HiTons during that stretch. In those games, he batted .464 with 13 hits, four RBIs and four runs scored. Of his 13 hits, seven went for extra bases,

including four doubles, two triples and one home run. He tallied a leaguehigh 24 total bases, while also maintaining an .857 slugging percentage and .464 on-base percentage.

Thomasville also played a part in Jeroszkoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s award. The junior from College of Charleston threw seven scoreless innings and earned the victory against Thomasville on July 11. He scattered six hits, struck out eight and did not allow a walk before allowing his bullpen to finish the game for a combined shutout.

Coastal athletes take Big South awards CONWAY, S.C. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Two Coastal Carolina athletes have been named the Big South Conference scholar-athletes of the year.

Chanticleers volleyball player Jill Nyhof won the womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s award, while baseballâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Austin Fleet won the menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s honor. The awards were announced on Tuesday by the league office.

Winners were determined by a vote of the Big South sports information directors after each

sports selects its scholarathlete winner.

Nyhof is from Alpharetta, Ga., and finished her senior season with a league-best 158 blocks.

She graduated from Coastal Carolina with a 4.0 grade-point average.

Fleet is from Edmond, Okla. He helped the Chanticleers to the Big South championship and a national seed in the NCAA tournament. He had a 3.78 GPA and graduated in spring 2009.

Henson looks to add bulk CHAPEL HILL (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; John Henson is battling his weight.

The lean 6-foot-10 North Carolina forward is desperately trying to bulk up. As one of only two returning Tar Heel big men, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll need to be able to throw his weight around next season â&#x20AC;&#x201D; instead of being thrown around like he was at times last year.

So, Henson tries to eat six to seven meals a day and spends four days a week in the weight room with team strength and conditioning coach Jonas Sahratian.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s working. Henson is up to about 210 pounds after arriving at Chapel Hill weighing 183. But itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a fight every step of the way. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been the one guy Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve prob-

ably sat up the most at night, pulling my hair out and probably giving me more gray hair, going, â&#x20AC;&#x2122;OK, What do I have to do with him?â&#x20AC;?â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Sahratian said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Because, he is, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s kind of like a wet noodle. ...

Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s got the most minuscule joints youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve ever seen. His waist is like a waspâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s waist. Most girls would kill for it.â&#x20AC;?

Woods eyes history ST. ANDREWS, Scotland (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; From the middle of the ninth fairway, just to the right of a pot bunker that he managed to avoid, Tiger Woods considered two options from 85 yards into a gentle breeze and executed both of them perfectly.

He gave a hard rap with his new putter and sent the ball bouncing along the links of St. Andrews until it rolled onto the green and settled 12 feet left of the flag. Then with a sand wedge, Woods sent the ball into the air with just the right trajectory. It never left the flag and stopped about 6 feet away.

The sand wedge was

Lee Trevino (left) and Tiger Woods talk on Tuesday.

They are among the British Opens former champions who have accepted an invitation to play four holes at St. Andrew today as a preliminary to the start of the tournament on Thursday. the safer shot, and the right one for this day. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But it depends on the wind,â&#x20AC;? Woods said later during his practice round at the British Open. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If the wind is blowing hard, you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t hit it in the air. You have to putt it.â&#x20AC;?

For Woods, the key to the British Open always has been about control.

This year, that holds true on and off the golf course.

His biggest test Tuesday came not from the gorse bushes and pot bunkers that dot the

landscape on the Old Course, but from a full house of reporters who wanted to know as much about his personal life as how he plans to play the Road Hole.

Unlike his last big press conference at a major, he didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t lose his cool.

He did reveal details of a breakup â&#x20AC;&#x201D; with his putter. Woods is changing the flat stick for the first time in 12 years, going to a Nike model that he says will allow him to cope with greens that are on the slow side.

Schleck takes over yellow jersey SAINT-JEAN-DEMAURIENNE, France (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Andy Schleck of Luxembourg captured the overall lead at the Tour de France at the end of a mountainous ninth stage won

by French rider Sandy Casar on Tuesday.

Schleck took the yellow jersey from Australiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Cadel Evans, who wore it for only one day, after finishing seventh

in the stage, two seconds behind Casar and alongside two-time Tour winner Alberto Contador.

Evans was dropped on the fabled Madeleine pass and lost more than 8 minutes on Schleck and Contador. Team doctor Max Testa said Evans was riding with a â&#x20AC;&#x153;small but very painfulâ&#x20AC;? fracture on his elbow after crashing in the eighth stage on Sunday.

Seven-time champion Lance Armstrong fared relatively well as many other riders dropped off the title contenders on the Madeleine â&#x20AC;&#x201D; one of the toughest climbs in cycling. The Texan finished 18th, 2:50 behind Casar.

Armstrong rose in the standings to 31st, from 39th, but lost time in the overall title chase. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 15:54 behind Schleck.

Report: Tomlin signs contract extension PITTSBURGH (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The Pittsburgh PostGazette is reporting that the Steelers have given coach Mike Tomlin a three-year contract extension.

The newspaper says Steelers president Art Rooney negotiated the deal. Terms were not available.

The Steelers had no comment Tuesday.

Tomlin was hired by the Steelers in 2007. He had one year and an option left on his 5-year deal, which was worth about $2.5 million annually.

CHARLOTTE (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The Charlotte Bobcats completed a wild 24 hours of trade discussions with a deal on Tuesday that does include center Tyson Chandler after all.

Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just not heading to the team he thought a day earlier.

After a potential trade with Toronto fell apart, the Bobcats sent Chandler and fellow center Alexis Ajinca to the Dallas Mavericks for center Erick Dampier, forward Eduardo Najera, shooting guard Matt Carroll and cash considerations.

The 7-foot-1 Chandler, acquired from New Orleans for Emeka Okafor last season, spent one injury-riddled season in Charlotte. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We could not be more excited to add Tyson Chandler,â&#x20AC;? said Mavericks general manager Donnie Nelson. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He is one of the most versatile big men in the league today. He gives our front line a defensive, shotblocking, athletic punch we havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t had here in awhile. Alexis Ajinca is a fine young center with significant upside.â&#x20AC;?

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s possible the trade is simply a salary dump for Charlotte. Dampierâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s $13 million salary for next season is not guaranteed and he could be waived.

Chandler is due $12.7 million next season.

The Bobcats were only about $3 million shy of the reaching the luxury tax threshold, a payroll figure owner Michael Jordan said they wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t exceed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our main goal this offseason was finding a way to reshape this roster and continue the momentum we have established,â&#x20AC;?

Bobcats general manager Rod Higgins said.

Federal deficit tops $1 trillion through June WASHINGTON (AP) – The federal deficit has topped $1 trillion with three months still to go in the budget year, showing the lasting impact of the recession on the government’s finances.

In its monthly budget report, the Treasury Department said Tuesday that through the first nine months of this budget year, the deficit totals $1 trillion.

That’s down 7.6 percent from the $1.09 trillion deficit run up during the same period a year ago.

Worries about the size of the deficit have created political problems for the Obama administration.

BRIEFS

---

GM, Chrysler dealers to know fate soon DETROIT – All of the General Motors and Chrysler dealers threatened with closure as part of the companies’ bankruptcy proceedings will soon know their fate.

Federally appointed arbitrators are down to just 35 cases out of nearly 1,600 dealers who appealed the closures, according to India Johnson, senior vice president of the American Arbitration Association, the dispute resolution service that handled the cases.

Hearings are set to wrap up today.

Court denies appeal of landing fees WASHINGTON – A federal appeals court has turned aside a challenge to peak-time airport pricing that raises some landing fees, saying the Transportation Department has a legal mandate to address airport congestion.

The Air Transport Association of U.S. airlines called the higher fees unreasonable and discriminatory. In denying the group’s petition for review, a three-judge panel ruled unanimously Tuesday that the Transportation Department had provided a reasoned analysis and given airports sufficient guidance.

Oil prices climb on positive forecast Oil prices rose Tuesday as the global recovery got a boost on two fronts.

Benchmark crude rose about 3 percent in midday trading, a day after the quarterly company earnings season got off to a better-than-expected start. In addition, a new global forecast called for a slight improvement in oil demand next year.

Benchmark crude for August delivery gained $2.20 to settle at $77.15.

Congressional Republicans and moderate Democrats have blocked more spending on job creation and other efforts. Republicans also have held up legislation to extend unemployment benefits for the long-term jobless because of its effect on the deficit.

Another failed effort would have provided cash-starved states with money to help avoid layoff of public employees and finance the Medicaid program for the poor and disabled.

The June deficit totaled $68.4 billion, the second highest June deficit on record, but down from

the all-time high of $94.3 billion in June 2009, a month when the government was spending heavily to stabilize the financial system and jumpstart economic growth.

June is normally a surplus month as the government collects tax payments from corporations and individuals who make quarterly payments. Only seven years in the past 56 have seen deficits in June.

Many private economists are forecasting that the deficit for the entire budget year, which ends on Sept. 30, will come in around $1.3 trillion.

Market slump expected to dent bank profits NEW YORK (AP) – The bank industry’s earnings winning streak may be over.

A terrible spring in the financial markets is expected to leave the nation’s big banks with second-quarter earnings that fall short of their stellar results from the first three months of the year. That’s bad news for companies that relied on trading profits to mask a still-miserable banking climate with high losses from failed loans and low demand for credit.

Banks begin their second-quarter reports Thursday, when JPMorgan Chase & Co. issues its results. But there may be problems in the coming quarters as well.

A number of unknowns are weighing on full-year earning projections and the stocks of big names like JPMorgan, Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley. Among the biggest wild cards: how banks will be affected by the financial regulatory overhaul that’s awaiting congressional approval.

Fears of a “double dip” recession and Europe’s debt crisis have added to the gloomy outlook.

The news isn’t all bad, though. Smaller banks that don’t bet heavily in the financial markets, including State Street Corp. and Fifth Third Bancorp, are expected to post good-to-strong results for the AprilJune period.

Job openings drop in May WASHINGTON (AP) – Job openings dropped in May from the previous month and layoffs edged up, fresh evidence that employers are reluctant to add workers.

The decline in job openings comes after a sharp rise the previous two months, driven by temporary government hiring for the 2010 census and more openings in the private sector. As a result, the number of available jobs has rebounded since the depths of the recession but remains well below pre-recession levels.

The Labor Department said Tuesday that job openings fell to 3.2 million in May from 3.3 million in the previous

month. April’s upwardly revised figure was the highest in 18 months.

The department’s report, known as the Job Openings and Labor Turnover survey, illustrates how competitive the job market is. There were about 4.7 unemployed people, on average, for each job opening in May. That’s down from the peak of 6.3 last November, but is much higher than the 1.8 unemployed per opening when the recession began in December 2007.

May’s job openings are 37 percent above the low point of 2.3 million openings in July 2009.

But the figure is still far below pre-recession levels of about 4.5 million.

Stocks surge on Alcoa, CSX reports NEW YORK (AP) – The stock market got a shot of confidence from the start of second-quarter earnings season.

Investors sent stocks sharply higher Tuesday after better-thanexpected profits from aluminum maker Alcoa Inc. and railroad operator CSX Corp. The Dow Jones industrial average rose more than 145 points for its sixth straight gain, and the major indexes were up well over 1 percent.

There was more good news from Intel Corp. after the close of trading. The chip maker reported earnings and revenue that beat analysts’ expectations, and it also raised its forecast for the year. Its stock shot up more than 5 percent in after-hours trades.

The companies, among the first to report second-quarter earnings, also issued upbeat forecasts for the rest of the year. That was heartening news for investors who have been concerned that the recovery was stalling, or that the economy might even fall back into recession.

“When we go back to earnings and fundamentals, companies are delivering,” said Tom Karsten, senior managing partner at Karsten Financial in Fort Worth, Texas. Alcoa’s earnings reports are closely watched because its varied customer base provides a snapshot of a broad range of other industries.
