Super Blood Wolf Moon over the Old North State In this photo made with a 12-1/2 inch telescope and provided by Johnny Horne, the totally eclipsed moon glows with a reddish color against the background stars over Stedman, N.C., Monday, Jan. 21, 2019. It was also the year’s first supermoon, when a full moon appears a little bigger and brighter thanks to its slightly closer position. During totality, the moon will look red because of sunlight scattering off Earth’s atmosphere. That’s why an eclipsed moon is sometimes known as a blood moon. In January, the full moon is also sometimes known as the wolf moon or great spirit moon.

NEWS BRIEFING
North Carolina revenues up again at halfway point North Carolina tax collections keep outpacing expectations. The top economist on the General Assembly’s nonpartisan staff, Barry Boardman, says state revenues for the first half of the fiscal year through December are $189 million ahead of projections lawmakers used when assembling the current budget. That’s 1.7 percent ahead. Boardman cautions the second half of the year is more volatile but says the solid economy means there’s minimal risk for the state in meeting revenue projections. North Carolina has registered revenue surpluses the past four years. Any surplus will aid budget-writers assembling the next two-year spending plan.
Trump moving ahead with State of the Union speech next week The White House is moving forward with plans for President Donald Trump to deliver his State of the Union speech next week in front of a joint session of Congress — despite a letter from House Speaker Nancy Pelosi requesting he delay it. The White House sent an email to the House Sergeant-at-Arms on Tuesday asking to schedule a walk-through for the speech in anticipation of a Jan. 29 delivery. At the same time, the White House is continuing to work on contingency plans and has been considering potential alternatives, including a rally, as a back-up venue.
Supreme Court rejects coach’s appeal over prayer, for now The Supreme Court is rejecting an appeal from a former Seattle-area football coach who lost his job because he refused to stop praying on the field. But four conservative justices said Tuesday they are interested in former Bremerton High School Coach Joe Kennedy’s case and the legal issues it raises. Justice Samuel Alito says the high court is right to reject the appeal for now, but says he is troubled by lower courts’ handling of the case. Justices Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh and Clarence Thomas joined with Alito.

Sophomore legislators begin to leave their footprint on GA Returning members given larger leadership and committee roles as 2019-20 session begins By David Larson North State Journal RALEIGH — On Jan. 30, legislators will gather in Raleigh for their first day of official business. Those who are representing North Carolina districts for the first time often get a lot of questions about transitioning into their new positions, but those in their second term are really beginning to distinguish themselves and the direction their role within the Gen-
eral Assembly will take. Many of the freshman class from last session did not return, with some retiring and others losing their re-election bids. In the House, these single-term legislators include Beverly Boswell (R-Davie); Mike Clampitt (R-Swain), who lost to Joe Sam Queen, the incumbent he defeated in the prior election; and Andy Dulin (R-Mecklenburg), who lost a close election after a DUI charge in Ohio came to light. In the Senate, legislators that were one-anddone include Dan Barrett (R-Davie), who lost his seat; and Cathy Dunn (R-Davidson), who retired. Among last session’s freshman
Local smoking ordinances creating controversy Republicans unveil
State law allows locals to implement smoking bans more restrictive than the statewide ban By David Larson North State Journal
RALEIGH — Several local governments are moving to increase their regulation of tobacco use, causing pushback from N.C. citizens and municipalities. North Carolina implemented statewide smoking laws in 2010 that required enclosed areas of almost all restaurants and bars to be smoke-free effective Jan. 2, 2010. House Bill 2 in 2009 also banned smoking in enclosed areas of hotels, motels and inns if food and drink are prepared there. That law built on a prior bill, House Bill 24 in 2007, which allowed local governments to restrict smoking in public places. The 2007 law allows local governments to adopt and enforce ordinances, rules and policies restricting or prohibiting smoking that are more restrictive than state law. The law also allows those restrictions to apply in local government buildings, on local government grounds, in local vehicles or in public places. On Jan. 15, the Elon Board of Alderman voted to prohibit “any person to smoke or use e-cigarettes on town sidewalks and streets in the Downtown Business District.” The town had previously
banned smoking in town-owned or leased municipal buildings and the surrounding grounds and in municipal vehicles. The new ordinance added town sidewalks and streets in the town’s downtown area. College students from Elon University spoke to WGHP-TV after the town vote, calling the ban unfair, especially as the ordinance relates to vaping. “I don’t really get why the public is concerned about it,” Sam Moreland said. “I don’t know why it bothers people. It’s not like cigarettes, it doesn’t smell bad really.” Moreland said he believes the fines associated with the ban are not enough to get people to drop their habit and that the move has motive. “I think it’s because they don’t want kids Juuling, which, I mean, makes sense; I get it. But people are going to do it anyway,” Moreland said to WGHP. Richard White, Elon town manager, told WGHP that the move was meant to lead to a healthier community. “It’s one more step the town can take to be proactive to encourage our community to be a healthy community and develop healthy habits,” he said.

fundraising tool to rival Democrats’ ActBlue By Zeke Miller The Associated Press WASHINGTON, D.C. — The Republican Party believes it finally has its answer to the Democratic fundraising behemoth ActBlue. GOP groups are lending their support to a new donor platform called Patriot Pass, which they say will help the party match and even surpass the organization that sent more than $700 million to Democratic campaigns in 2018. After the Republican Party’s midterm losses, party officials said they needed to find a way to match the small-dollar fundraising power of ActBlue. The Republican platform is a joint effort of GOP payment processing firm Revv and the party’s data clearinghouse, DataTrust. Revv founder Gerrit Lansing, who briefly worked as White House chief digital officer, said that combination will help the GOP pass Democrats. Democrats are playing a game of catch-up of their own, struggling to create a hub for their data to rival DataTrust. Patriot Pass is meant to allow the GOP to unite its donor and political databases, helping the party to improve its small-dollar fundraising and understanding of the electorate.
The GOP platform will allow one-click donations, like ActBlue does, to candidates and committees on the political right, leading to more streamlined donations to Republican causes. “Reducing the friction increases donations,” said Lansing, who See GOP, page A2

North Carolina will be using the $26.6 million received over five years to increase the number of educationally disadvantaged students in our charter schools.
North State Journal (USPS 20451) (ISSN 2471-1365)
LOOKING BACK on the 2017-2018 school year, we made great strides in strengthening academic outcomes for charter school students. Now, we have the opportunity to keep moving and making progress in 2019. The Annual Charter School Report released last week shows charter schools have great results to celebrate. Charter schools are giving students the personalized education they need and helping students achieve strong academic outcomes — 56.7 percent of students at charters have grade level proficiency, compared to only 44.3 percent at non-charters. Additionally, more than 40 percent of charter schools earned a School Performance Grade (SPG) of A or B compared to 34 percent of noncharters. And the number and percentage of charter schools earning Ds and Fs decreased for the fifth consecutive year. This is strong progress, but we know we still have work to do. Luckily, we’re starting off the year on the right foot and are on track to expand charter school opportunities for all students with a new grant that will help NC charter schools provide high-quality education to disadvantaged students. Last year, North Carolina was selected as one of the eight states to receive the Charter School Program (CSP) Grant, a competitive federal grant issued each year by the U.S. Department of Education to help new and existing charter schools better meet the needs of traditionallyunderserved students. North Carolina will be using the $26.6 million received over five years to increase the number of educationallydisadvantaged students in our charter schools. The focus is on working to increase the diversity of our student bodies to better reflect our communities and to ensure that more students have an opportunity to receive the
education and academic outcomes they deserve. The majority of CSP funds will be allocated to competitive subgrants available for charter schools to help fund brand new schools, schools within their first three years, and high-quality schools who want to replicate. The grant requires recipient schools to conduct weighted lotteries and provide transportation and lunch. Additionally, school leaders from the schools who receive a grant will participate in ACCESS, a year-long fellowship program for immersive leadership training to give teachers the support and technical assistance they need to develop, expand, and replicate their schools. By the end of the five years, the program will have created a community of 100 charter school leaders skilled in serving educationally-disadvantaged students. Now that the sub-grant application process is open, we at the NC Association for Public Charter Schools are hitting the ground running. We are hosting a grantwriting workshop this month to help schools write winning grant proposals to apply for the school-level grants. By helping school leaders learn grant-writing skills, we know they will be able to advance the work of their charter schools and expand opportunities to even more students. We are thrilled to see the progress charter schools made in 2018. We’re ready to keep the momentum going in 2019 with the CSP grant to increase access to high-quality charter schools to more students, ensure our classrooms reflect our communities and equip our school leaders with skills to give students the individualized attention they deserve. Rhonda Dillingham is the Executive Director of the NC Association for Public Charter Schools.

NCGA from page A1 class, those who remain standing are now filling a number of key roles throughout the General Assembly. In the House, some of these second-term legislators even hold leadership roles. On the Republican side, Rep. Brenden Jones (R-Columbus) holds the highest position, as House deputy majority leader. This puts him as the fourth most powerful member in that chamber and allows him to confer with the speaker, Rules chair and majority leader behind the scenes on major decisions. “It’s been busy,” Jones told the North State Journal. “Getting moved into my new office, getting prepared for my new role and everything else. Hopefully, this position will pay dividends for my constituents in eastern North Carolina. We are not only still waiting for relief from Florence but also from Hurricane Matthew still. We’re getting desperate.” Jones said being at the table with top leaders could make a big difference. Being the deputy majority leader, Jones will be an ex-officio member of every House committee and will even be able to vote in any of them when he feels necessary. Rep. Kevin Corbin (R-Macon) is another with a key position. As House deputy majority whip, he will help to corral votes on important bills. Democrats have also advanced some sophomore members in their ranks. Reps. Cynthia Ball (D-Wake) and Amos Quick (D-Guilford) were both named House Democratic whip. Rep. Deb Butler (D-New Hanover), who is still considered a fresh-

In the Senate, the leadership roles are held by more long-standing members, like Sens. Phil Berger (R-Rockingham) and Dan Blue (D-Wake), but committee chairmanships were given to multiple sophomores. With many former members being defeated or retiring, space opened up at the helm of numerous committees. Sen. Dan Bishop (R-Mecklenburg), who also spent time in the House, was placed as the co-chair of three major Senate committees. Bishop will co-chair the Redistricting and Elections Committee, the Health Committee and the Health Appropriations Committee. Sen. Rick Horner (R-Wilson) will also co-chair three Senate committees: Education; State and Local Government; and General Government and Information Technology Appropriations. Chairing two Senate committees are Sen. Chuck Edwards (R-Henderson), who will co-chair Commerce and Insurance, and Agriculture, Natural and Environmental Resources Appropriations; and Sen. Danny Britt (R-Robeson) who will cochair Justice and Public Safety Appropriations, and Judiciary. Sen. Paul Newton (R-Cabarrus), a former Duke Energy executive, was assigned a prominent place as co-chair of the Senate Finance Committee, which determines tax policy for the chamber.

SMOKING from page A1 county’s board of commissioners is considering this ban on the use of all tobacco products — including chewing tobacco and other smokeless products. That board, which is comprised of a 5-0 Republican majority, voted 3-2 at their January meeting to ban the use of all tobacco products on all local government property, including in government-owned vehicles and on government-owned parking lots. That vote was to approve a rule enacted by the county’s health board and required a unanimous vote to pass at the first reading of the ordinance. At the meeting, the county’s health director, Susan Hayes, said the ordinance would preclude a person from smoking in a private vehicle if the person’s car was in the courthouse parking lot. After the Randolph County vote, the towns of Archdale and Randleman voiced opposition to the ordinance. “The city already has rules that govern our employees on city-owned property and vehicles,” said Zach Hewett, Randleman’s city manager. While Hewett said his council did not vote on a resolution opposing the county’s proposal, the consensus from his council was that the city did not need additional regulations from the county on smoking and tobacco use. In Archdale, the city manager wrote the Randolph County Commissioners a letter opposing the county-wide tobacco rule. In his letter, Archdale City Manager Zeb Holden said that the council “wishes to respectfully, yet firmly, express its unani-
ed a fundraising advantage over their Republican rivals. The North Carolina Democratic Party said it spent over $16 million during the past two-year election cycle — millions more than its Republican counterpart — on the way to picking up more General Assembly and statewide court seats. The state Republican Party reported expenditures of nearly $10 million.
mous opposition to the Prohibition of Tobacco Products language currently being considered by the Randolph County Board of Commissioners. While clearly well-intended, this Health Department Rule fails to take into account the resulting impacts on the County’s municipalities.” Holden went on to cite several concerns with the ordinance being considered, including that enforcement of the ordinance “would be nearly impossible in many circumstances,” and that the council believes the county lacks the statutory authority to enact the tobacco ban within the town’s jurisdiction. Holden closed his letter by stating the city of Archdale’s support for “creative measures to improve the health of all Randolph County citizens.” But, he said, “the language and the methods in the currently proposed rule create unenforceable circumstances and undue burden on the municipalities of Randolph County. If cities wish to enforce such regulations, they can adopt a resolution stating as much as permitted by NCGS 153A-122(b).” North Carolina is the leading tobacco-producing state in the U.S., with more than 330 million pounds produced in 2017. In 2018, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration indicated it would revisit a ban on menthol cigarettes nationwide in an effort to reduce smoking. Efforts in Elon and Randolph County follow other local government bans including Nags Head, Orange County and Waynesville. The Randolph County Board of Commissioners will hold another — potentially final — hearing on the proposed ban on tobacco use on Feb. 4.

N.C. companies honored for export sales, job creation Six North Carolina companies received 2018 Governor’s Export Awards last week in a ceremony highlighting their success in increasing overseas sales, as well as the significant role exporting plays in the state’s economy. North Carolina’s export of goods and services supports more than 400,000 jobs in the state, according to the Brookings Institution in Washington, D.C. The Governor’s Office developed the export award program in collaboration with the Economic Development Partnership of North Carolina (EDPNC), which helps North Carolina companies achieve their export objectives, and the North Carolina Department of Commerce. The companies who received 2018 Governor’s Export Awards in a ceremony at the North Carolina Executive Mansion include: Unifi, Inc. (Guilford, Yadkin and Rockingham counties), Advanced Detection Technology (Iredell County), Bernhardt Furniture Co. (Caldwell County), National Wiper Alliance (Buncombe County), P2P Rescue (New Hanover County), and ImmunoReagents Inc. (Wake County). “The EDPNC’s international trade team has helped each of these companies in a variety of ways,” said John Loyack, EDPNC vice president for global business services. “We provide export-education workshops, market research, market-entry strategies and more. We accompany North Carolina businesses to trade shows around the world, administering funds that can reimburse their trade show travel costs. We also help companies find new international distributors at trade events.” “Smaller companies with limited resources particularly benefit,” Loyack added, “because our help comes at no charge.”
Blue Cross NC unveils “transformative” plan New health insurance model is built on partnership with practice management provider focused on data analytics and integrated physician support By Emily Roberson North State Journal
Approved Logos
DURHAM — Blue Cross NC has announced that “Blue Premier” is its flagship program within a “value-based care” initiative announced last month. Senior Vice President and Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Rahul Rajkumar, said Blue Premier will be the “signature statewide program for transforming health care in North Carolina…and a model of healthcare transformation for the nation” as it seeks to address three critical areas plaguing today’s health care system: changing how consumers pay for care, putting primary care first and better integration of mental and behavioral health. Within the new Blue Premier plan, “health care providers guarantee care standards and collaborate to take a closer look at a patient’s overall health, spending more time with patients who need it the most. With value-based care, doctors and hospitals earn more payments for services when they deliver high-quality care for our members,” Rajkumar said. “But what truly sets Blue Premier apart is that participating systems will share in cost savings if they meet patient health benchmarks – and share in the losses if they fall short” within a newly adopted Accountable Care Organization (ACO) model, he said. In December, the company launched its partnership with Aledade, a practice management organization specializing in data analytics, practice workflow, and payment systems. Together they announced a new ini-
tiative to support hundreds of independently owned and operated primary care physician clinics across North Carolina, with a focus on physician-led ACOs tailored specifically for primary care physicians and the communities they serve. This care model seeks to enable doctors and providers to work as a team to improve the quality of care for their patients, better manage chronic diseases, and ultimately reduce health care costs. Blue Cross NC says the partnership will work together to provide more resources and encourage data sharing with practices in order to better manage care while improving patient health outcomes. Physicians joining these ACOs can also earn enhanced reimbursement rates and share in a portion of health care cost savings generated from improved quality of care. Officials from both companies have emphasized a commitment to creating opportunities for primary care practices to remain financially independent. “With health care becoming unaffordable for too many North Carolinians, we must change the way we pay for care to focus on paying for healthier outcomes, not simply for the volume of tests and procedures. Primary care physicians influence a vast majority of health care spending, and their role in this transformation is critical,” said Dr. Patrick Conway, CEO of Blue Cross NC. “We want to provide primary care physicians across North Carolina the tools they need to be best-in-class and succeed in a remodeled health care system built on the foundation of value-based, patient-centered care.” Through these ACO arrangements, Blue Cross NC will collaborate with Aledade to provide physicians with technology and data analytics tools that are designed to help make positive changes to a patient’s health care experience. After joining these ACOs, prac-

Dr. Patrick Conway, CEO of Blue Cross NC tices ideally gain a more comprehensive view of their patients’ total cost of care, gaps in quality of care, and experiences throughout the entire health care system. For example, physicians will receive notice when their patients visit the hospital or emergency room so they can work with the patient to better manage ongoing health issues. Blue Cross NC points to Aledade’s ACOs around the country which have “proven to improve access to primary care and reduce preventable hospital stays, emergency room visits, and unnecessary services for Medicare beneficiaries as well as commercially insured members.” The Aledade and Blue Cross NC ACO model is designed to become the preferred value-based care arrangement for independent primary care providers who care for Blue Cross NC’s commercially insured and Medicare Advantage members. Primary care practices under a specialty of internal medicine, family medicine, or general practice for adult care will be eligible to join the ACO model in 2019. Rajkumar said that Blue Cross NC is committed to ensuring 50 percent of members will have a primary care provider accountable for their care by 2020, and within five years, they hope to have all customers covered under Blue Premier’s value-based care contracts. So far, five major N.C. healthcare providers have committed to participate in Blue Premier: Cone Health, Duke University Health System, UNC Health Care, Wake Forest Baptist Health, and WakeMed Health & Hospitals.

Blood Donation Across NC
Trump won’t be heading to Raleigh for SOTU NSJ Staff RALEIGH — North Carolina House Speaker Tim Moore (R-Cleveland) last week invited President Donald Trump to the state’s legislature to deliver the State of the Union address. On Monday, Moore received a phone call from Trump who thanked him for the invite but said he was making other arrangements to deliver the annual address. “He was sincerely appreciative of the invitation,” said Moore in a phone interview with the North State Journal. “He mentioned that N.C. was doing well and said we were doing a great job.” Moore wrote to the president on Friday, inviting Trump to deliver the address in the House chamber of the North Carolina General Assembly. Moore was inspired to extend the invitation after U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) suggested in a letter to the president that the annual address be delayed or given in writing due to the partial government shutdown. In his letter, Moore said it is “essential” that Americans hear from their president on the effort to reopen the federal government.
January is National Blood Donor Month. While the month is intended to celebrate volunteer donors and raise awareness for the need for blood donations, it also comes during a time of need for blood banks. The American Red Cross issued calls for additional blood and platelet donations to mitigate a blood shortage. With holiday scheduling keeping donors busy, the Red Cross collected about 27,000 fewer blood and platelet donations during the weeks of Christmas and New Year’s than needed. According to the Red Cross, type O blood is the greatest need. To locate a donor location, visit RedCrossBlood.org or call 1-800-RED CROSS.

On Friday, Moore told the North State Journal that he extended the invitation after hearing about Pelosi’s letter. “It disappointed me that Speaker Pelosi would not honor protocol and refused to invite the president to give the State of the Union address,” said Moore during a phone interview Friday. “After thinking about it for a couple of days, I wanted to offer to do something as speaker of our state House to show respect for the office of the president.” The legal basis for the State of the Union address comes from the U.S. Constitution. Article II, Section 3(1) of the Constitution says the president “shall from time to time give to the Congress Information of the State of the Union, and recommend to their Consideration such measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient.” The Constitution does not mandate the location of the speech. Including Trump’s 2018 message, the State of the Union has been directly delivered to Congress 95 times. Woodrow Wilson revived the practice of presenting the message to Congress in person in 1913 when it became a platform for the president to rally support for his agenda.

Fixing Congress requires common sense
The ongoing government shutdown is further proof that term limits are urgently needed.
SINCE THE GOVERNMENT shutdown began, we’ve seen plenty of posturing and finger-pointing — but not much common sense. Sadly, this is the new normal in American politics. At the heart of the problem is the growing number of career politicians enmeshed in D.C.’s thriving political class. Unfortunately, many career politicians prioritize the wishes of the well-connected D.C. establishment over the best interests of the people they were elected to serve. Their desire to stay in power also discourages bipartisan cooperation, increasing gridlock and dysfunction. Thankfully, I believe there is a solution: term limits. Term limits will help end the cycle of complacency, dysfunction and cowardice plaguing Congress. They will get rid of career politicians and help restore a true citizenlegislature. Elected officials will be empowered to do what’s best for their constituents, instead of catering to the establishment and special interests. The ongoing government shutdown is further proof that term limits are urgently needed. That is one reason why I have introduced a Constitutional amendment imposing term limits on members of Congress and senators. The truth is the American people have lost faith in their government. And rightly so. It is well past time to end the status quo in D.C. and turn the ship around. Term limits will do just that. They are a common-sense solution that will break the gridlock, end Washington politics-as-usual, and help restore a citizen legislature. It’s time for elected officials to start making a difference, not a career. Rep. George Holding represents North Carolina’s 2nd Congressional District in the U.S. House of Representatives.

Democracy is God’s government
The end of all good government is to cultivate humanity and promote the happiness of all and the good of every man in all his rights, his life, liberty, estate, honor…
“YOU SEE, the Founding Fathers were really influenced by the Bible. “The whole concept of the ‘imago dei,’ as it is expressed in Latin, the ‘image of God,’ is the idea that all men have something within them that God injected. “Not that they have substantial unity with God, but that every man has a capacity to have fellowship with God. And this gives him a uniqueness, it gives him worth, it gives him dignity. “And we must never forget this as a nation: there are no gradations in the image of God. “Every man from a treble white to a bass black is significant on God’s keyboard, precisely because every man is made in the image of God. “One day we will learn that. “We will know one day that God made us to live together as brothers and to respect the dignity and worth of every man.” — Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. “American Dream” sermon, Ebenezer Baptist Church, Atlanta, July 4, 1965. In 1710, the Rev. John Wise, a Congregationalist minister in Massachusetts, preached from the pulpit: “Every man must be acknowledged to be equal to every man. … The end of all good government is to cultivate humanity and promote the happiness of all and the good of every man in all his rights, his life, liberty, estate, honor...” The Rev. Wise would preach to the American colonists that democracy is God’s chosen form of government for both the church and the state because it relies on the natural state of man being made free by God in the first place over civil government having dominion over them. It was certainly preferable over rule by a single fallible, fallen creature monarch, the King of England at that time. He was not advocating the establishment of America as a theocracy to be ruled by church leaders. He was talking about every citizen having been given the equal natural right by God to pursue their happiness and not live under a dictator or tyrant who demanded they pay taxes to support their rule first over pursuing their own personal dreams and ambitions. The same ideals John Wise preached were the same ideals MLK preached 250 years later for everyone, including African-Americans and women who were excluded before at the time of the Rev. Wise’s preaching. Equality, liberty, popular sovereignty and individual rights
were the same ideals people hoped for in the 18th century as they were in the 20th and now in the 21st century. In a speech commemorating the 150th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, President Calvin Coolidge expounded on the sermons of the Rev. Wise and said: “Governments do not make ideals, but ideals make government.” Any law or regulation that restricts entry or competition in a marketplace of ideas, products or services is less than “ideal.” It contradicts the natural law freedom of that person to pursue their happiness and provide for themselves and their family. We cannot unwind the mistakes of the past. We can set a course for the future to “live together as brothers” and “respect the dignity and worth of every man” as the Rev. King wished for in his “American Dream” sermon by encouraging more freedom, not less, in every aspect of American life. America was not perfect at the beginning. We certainly are not perfect now. The only way we can make this a “more perfect Union,” and we have to keep trying, is through our currently existing democratic republic form of representative democracy. Not through an experiment with “free-for-all” (except the taxpayers) democratic socialism. You will never hear anyone talk about “republican socialism.” It would antithetical to the principles of natural law individual freedom expressed by both the Revs. John Wise and Martin Luther King Jr. 250 years apart. Forced involuntary socialism is not God’s government. Democratic republicanism is. Let’s keep it that way.

GUEST OPINION | GARLAND S. TUCKER III
Where’s the backbone?
The GOP needs no more boneless wonders.
JUST TWO MONTHS after last November’s midterm elections, Democratic presidential hopefuls are already lining up. And the new darling of the left, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, is blithely explaining her party’s outright embrace of oldfashioned socialism with the self-assured assertion that the left is “morally right.” Do conservatives have the backbone to offer an effective alternative? The recent past is disturbing. While the nation continues to drown in deficit spending, Washington Republicans muffed many recent opportunities to reverse course. Here are just three: In 2018, President Trump and his secretary of Education, Betsy DeVos, recommended a $9 billion reduction in appropriations for the Education Department. How did the Republican Congress respond? It went in the opposite direction, giving the department a $2.6 billion increase in appropriations over the prior year — an $11.6 billion increase over the administration’s request! Similarly, the Trump administration proposed steep reductions in foreign aid and state department funding which would have reduced spending levels back to those under George W. Bush. The Republican Congress responded by spending $11 billion more than President Trump requested. In March 2018, Congress passed a gargantuan $1.3 trillion spending bill over the futile protest of a handful of conservative Republicans. In an effort to exert some semblance of fiscal responsibility, the administration then proposed a rescission bill which would have clawed back some $15 billion of the $1.3 trillion spending bill. The House approved the rescission package. The Senate defeated it. These three missed opportunities illustrate how we got in this mess. Our national debt now stands at well over $20 trillion, and the annual deficit is projected at over $1 trillion. And that’s in a year when the economy is robust and growing — just imagine what the deficit will be whenever we enter the next recession. Even with a Republican president and a Republican Congress, there has been no real appetite for cutting spending and moving toward a balanced budget. Meantime, as liberals boast about “being morally right,” Republicans have failed to make the moral argument against more deficit spending. Is it moral to spend the nation into bankruptcy? Government has spent trillions of taxpayers’ hard-earned dollars on welfare programs to end poverty since the 1960s
but the poverty rate hasn’t declined. Was that spending moral? Was it moral to create a huge class of Americans who are permanently dependent on the government? The answer is no. It is immoral, and it is dangerous. In economic terms, we are perched atop a time bomb. Deep down, we Americans agree with Ben Stein: “If something can’t go on forever, it will stop.” Yet Congress has refused to reduce spending. Why? Because the American voters have too often elected representatives who ran as conservatives but lacked the backbone to vote as they had promised. Former Sen. Tom Coburn has written, “Big government’s false promise of easy living and smug security has wreaked havoc not only in the nation’s finances, but also in the American ideals of selfreliance and human dignity.” Arthur Brooks concludes, “The fact that we have hardly moved the needle on earned success after spending trillions of dollars is not merely a failure of public policy. It is the greatest moral scandal of our time.” J.D. Vance, in his blockbuster best-selling book, “Hillbilly Elegy,” poignantly portrays the devastating effects of well-intentioned entitlement programs. Millions of “Rust Belt Americans” have been shorn of their natural resilience and productivity and become trapped in lives of pessimism, hopelessness and despair. Winston Churchill once recalled that, as a young boy, his parents took him to Barnum’s Circus where the sideshow advertised “The World-Famous Boneless Wonder.” It was a giant slab of a man with no backbone. Although his parents determined it was too revolting for his young eyes, Churchill was haunted by this image for years, only to be confronted by it 50 years later as he gazed on the politicians of his day. The GOP needs no more boneless wonders. As we look to 2020, the left is mounting their campaign for more of the same old failed policies. The conservative arguments — both fiscal and moral — against continuing down this road are clear. The only missing ingredient is a Congress willing to have the backbone to say NO — and to reverse course. Garland S.

NUMBER OF THE DAY | SCOTT RASMUSSEN
$610B The United States spends $610 billion annually on national defense.
THAT’S MORE than the total spent by the next seven biggest military spending nations combined. China, Russia, Saudi Arabia, India, France, the United Kingdom, and Japan spend a combined total of $578 billion annually. There is little public recognition of this spending comparison. In fact, just 45% of American voters recognize that the United States spends more on its military than any other individual country in the world. Only 22% recognize that America
spends more than Russia and China combined. Scott Rasmussen’s Number of the Day explores interesting and newsworthy topics at the intersection of culture, politics, and technology and is published by Ballotpedia, the nonprofit, nonpartisan Encyclopedia of American Politics. He addresses these and related issues in his latest book, “The Sun Is Still Rising: Politics Has Failed But America Will Not.”
WALTER E. WILLIAMS
Who benefits from Democratic control? IN 1976, Gerald Ford won 15 percent of the black vote. That’s the most of any recent Republican presidential candidate. In most elections, blacks give Democrats more than 90 percent of their votes. It’s not unreasonable to ask what have blacks gained from such unquestioning loyalty to the Democratic Party. After all, the absolute worst public safety conditions and other urban amenities for blacks are in cities that have been controlled by Democrats for decades. Let’s look at it. What cities are the deadliest for blacks? The Trace, an independent nonprofit news organization, answers that question. Using 2017 data from the FBI’s Uniform Crime Reporting program, The Trace listed the 20 major U.S. cities with the highest homicide rates — factoring in both the number of people murdered in cities and their populations. Chicago, with 589 murders in 2018 — one murder every 15 hours — is often called the nation’s murder capital. But that’s dead wrong.
“Black people are finally starting to wake up and unplug themselves from the Liberal Matrix that has ruled their reality for over a half a century.”
In 2017, St. Louis had the nation’s highest murder rate, at 66.1 homicides per 100,000 residents. Baltimore came in second, with 55.8 murders per 100,000 people. Detroit was third, with 39.8 murders per 100,000 people. Other cities with high murder rates included New Orleans; Kansas City, Mo.; Cleveland; Memphis, Tenn.; and Newark, N.J. With 24.1 murders per 100,000 residents, Chicago ranked ninth in the nation. It was followed by Cincinnati and Philadelphia, and Washington, D.C., was 17th. Now here’s the kicker. Of the 20 most dangerous major cities, all but one had a Democratic mayor. In many of these cities, the Democratic Party has ruled for a halfcentury or more. Only Tulsa, Okla., with 17.3 murders per 100,000 residents, had a Republican mayor. Who knows what conclusion can be drawn from the finding that the most murderous cities have been controlled by Democrats — and often black Democrats? I am not suggesting that Democratic control causes murder and mayhem. What I am saying is that murder, mayhem and other violent crime are not reduced by the election of black or white Democrats to run our cities. That means one cannot dismiss out of hand a question then-candidate Donald Trump asked black Americans in a 2016 campaign speech in Michigan: “What do you have to lose by trying something new like Trump? ... What the hell do you have to lose?” Violent crime is not the only problem for blacks in our major cities. Because of high crime, poor schools and a less pleasant environment, cities are losing their economic base and their most productive people in droves. When World War II ended, Washington, D.C.’s population was about 900,000; today it’s about 694,000. In 1950, Baltimore’s population was almost 950,000; today it’s around 612,000. Detroit’s 1950 population was close to 1.85 million; today it’s down to 673,000. In 1950, the population of Camden, N.J., was nearly 125,000; today it has fallen to 75,000. St. Louis’ 1950 population was more than 856,000; today it’s less than 309,000. A similar story of population decline can be found in most of our formerly large and prosperous cities. In some cities, the population decline since 1950 is well over 50 percent. In addition to Detroit and St. Louis, those would include Cleveland and Pittsburgh. During the 1960s and ’70s, academic liberals, civil rights advocates and others blamed the exodus on racism — “white flight” to the suburbs to avoid blacks. However, since the ’70s, blacks have been fleeing some cities at higher rates than whites. The five cities whose suburbs have the fastest-growing black populations are Miami, Dallas, Washington, Houston and Atlanta. It turns out — and reasonably so — that blacks, like whites, want better and safer schools for their kids and don’t like to be mugged or have their property vandalized. And just like the case with white people, if they have the means, black people can’t wait to leave troubled cities. Bobby Hesley — a Catholic speaker, writer and conservative political commentator — writes, “Black people are finally starting to wake up and unplug themselves from the Liberal Matrix that has ruled their reality for over a half a century.” I say good! It’s unwise to be a one-party people in a two-party system. Walter E. Williams is a professor of economics at George Mason University.

China’s 2018 economic growth sinks to 3-decade low By Joe McDonald The Associated Press BEIJING — China’s economic growth hit a three-decade low in 2018, adding to pressure on Beijing to beef up stimulus measures and settle a tariff war with Washington. Growth slowed to 6.6 percent from 2017’s 6.9 percent as both the world’s appetite for China’s exports and domestic consumer spending weakened, official data showed Monday. Forecasters said they expect Beijing to try to shore up growth by making credit cheaper, raising government spending and adopting measures to encourage sales of autos and consumer goods. Communist leaders want to steer China toward slower, more self-sustaining growth driven by consumer spending instead of trade and investment. But the slowdown has been sharper than expected, prompting Beijing to boost spending on construction of roads and bridges and to order banks to lend more, especially to the entrepreneurs who generate most of China’s new jobs and wealth. “Downward pressure on the economy is increasing,” the commissioner of the National Bureau of Statistics, Ning Jizhe, said at a

China’s 2018 economic growth fell to a three-decade low as activity cooled amid a tariff war with Washington. news conference. He cited import controls, volatile financial markets and declining investment spending as factors. Still, Ning insisted China can resist shocks, saying “the long-term trend of stability will not change.” Economic growth in 2018 was the lowest since 1990’s 3.9 percent following the violent crackdown on
pro-democracy protests centered on Beijing’s Tiananmen Square. Growth in the last quarter of 2018 dipped to 6.4 percent — the lowest quarterly level since the 2008 global crisis — from the previous quarter’s 6.5 percent. “The government is expected to implement more fiscal and monetary stimulus measures to support
economic growth,” Yanjun Lin of IHS Markit said in a report. Growth in investment, retail spending and factory activity all declined, though analysts pointed to a flicker of improvement in manufacturing in December. It grew by 5.7 percent over a year earlier, up 0.3 percentage points from November. Production of plastics, metals and specialized industrial machinery accelerated, “suggesting warming expectations for a pick-up in investment,” Chaoping Zhu of J.P. Morgan Asset Management said in a report. The trade dispute with the U.S. is proving costly. Exports held up through most of 2018 despite President Donald Trump’s tariff hikes on Chinese imports in a fight over Beijing’s technology ambitions. But they contracted in December as the penalties began to depress U.S. demand. The two sides have imposed tariff hikes of up to 25 percent on tens of billions of dollars of each other’s goods in the fight over U.S. complaints that Beijing steals or pressures companies to hand over technology. Washington wants China to roll back plans for state-led industry development that its trading partners say violate its market-opening obligations. The trade dispute, and reports of job losses and tumbling sales of autos and real estate, have unnerved Chinese consumers that Beijing is counting on to drive growth. As pocketbooks snap shut, the downturn could worsen. China’s top trade envoy, Vice Pre-
mier Liu He, is due to visit Washington for talks Jan. 30-31. Business groups and economists said a decision by Liu and his American counterpart, Robert Lighthizer, to get directly involved would suggest earlier talks by lower-level officials made progress. Trump said Saturday that trade relations with China were “going very well” and “a deal could very well happen.” Forecasters expect Chinese growth to bottom out this year as Beijing’s stimulus efforts gain traction. However, they have pushed back the time frame for that due to weakening exports. Public works spending “is shaping up to be the engine for 2019,” Iris Pang of ING said in a report. “However, non-infrastructure business activities will be dismal this year. And debt will grow.” A meeting of Communist Party leaders in December promised tax cuts, better access to bank lending for entrepreneurs and other steps to help the private sector. Chinese leaders have been warning that any recovery would be “L-shaped,” meaning that companies and investors shouldn’t expect growth to rebound to the previous decade’s double-digit levels. Forecasters expect growth to decline further this year to 6.3 percent or lower. “China’s economy is likely to weaken further before growth stabilizes in the second half of the year on the back of expanded policy stimulus,” Julian Evans-Pritchard of Capital Economics said in a report.
Supreme Court returns to gun rights for first time in 9 years By Mark Sherman The Associated Press

In this Jan. 7, 2019 photo, The Supreme Court is seen in Washington,. The Supreme Court is allowing the Trump administration to go ahead with its plan to restrict military service by transgender men and women while court challenges continue. The high court on Tuesday reversed lower-court orders preventing the Pentagon from implementing its plans. The high court for now declined to take up cases about the plan. The cases will continue to move through lower courts.
High court lets military implement transgender restrictions By Jessica Gresko The Associated Press WASHINGTON, D.C. — The Supreme Court decided Tuesday the Trump administration can restrict military service by men and women who identify as a sex other their biological sex. The high court split 5-4 in allowing the plan to take effect, with the court’s five conservatives greenlighting it and its four liberal members saying they would not have. The order from the court was brief and procedural, with no elaboration from the justices. The Trump administration’s policy generally bars transgender people from the armed forces unless they serve “in their biological sex” and do not seek to undergo a gender transition. President Barack Obama’s administration had allowed transgender troops to undergo gender transitions while continuing to serve. The Trump administration had urged the justices to take up cases about the plan directly, but the court declined for now. Those cases will continue to move through lower courts and could eventually reach the Supreme Court again. The fact that five justices were willing to allow the policy to take effect for now, however, makes it more likely the policy will ulti-
mately be upheld. In a statement released after the court’s decision, the Pentagon said that it is critical the department be allowed to “implement personnel policies that it determines are necessary to ensure the most lethal and combat effective fighting force in the world.” Groups that sued over the Trump administration’s policy said they ultimately hoped to win their lawsuits against the policy. “The Trump administration’s cruel obsession with ridding our military of dedicated and capable service members because they happen to be transgender defies reason and cannot survive legal review,” Jennifer Levi, director of GLAD Transgender Rights, said in a statement. Until a few years ago service members could be discharged from the military for being transgender. That changed under the Obama administration. The military announced in 2016 that transgender people already serving in the military would be allowed to serve openly. And the military set July 1, 2017, as the date when transgender individuals would be allowed to enlist. But after President Donald Trump took office, the administration delayed the enlistment date, saying the issue needed fur-
ther study. And in late July 2017, the president tweeted that the government would not allow “Transgender individuals to serve in any capacity in the U.S. Military.” He later directed the military to return to its policy before the Obama administration changes. Groups representing transgender individuals sued, and the Trump administration lost early rounds in those cases, with courts issuing nationwide injunctions barring the administration from altering course. It was those injunctions that the Supreme Court put on hold Tuesday, allowing the Trump administration’s policy to take effect. The Trump administration’s revised policy on transgender troops dates to March 2018. The policy generally bars transgender people from serving unless they do so “in their biological sex” and do not seek to undergo a gender transition. But it has an exception for transgender troops who relied on the Obama-era rules to begin the process of changing their gender. Those individuals, who have been diagnosed with “gender dysphoria,” a discomfort with their birth gender, can continue to serve after transitioning. The military has said that more than 900 men and women had received that diagnosis.
WASHINGTON, D.C. — The Supreme Court said Tuesday it will take up its first gun rights case in nine years — a challenge to New York City’s prohibition on carrying a licensed, locked and unloaded handgun outside the city limits. The court’s decision to hear the appeal filed by three New York residents and New York’s National Rifle Association affiliate could signal a revived interest in gun rights by a more conservative court. The case won’t be argued until October. The challengers are represented by prominent lawyer Paul Clement, who has been urging the justices to elaborate on the extent of constitutional gun rights the Supreme Court declared in decisions in 2008 and 2010. The court had previously rejected several appeals. The court may be more willing to take on a gun rights case now that Justice Anthony Kennedy has retired and been replaced by Justice Brett Kavanaugh, who was President Donald Trump’s second high-court nominee to be
confirmed. Clement says the case “is a perfect vehicle to reaffirm that those decisions and the constitutional text have consequences.” Joining in support of gun rights, 17 states said the court should break its years-long silence and use the case to define the scope of gun rights under the Constitution and the level of scrutiny, or skepticism, judges should apply to gun laws. New York’s ordinance allows people licensed to have handguns to carry them outside the home to gun ranges in the city. The guns must be locked and unloaded. The city residents who filed suit want to practice shooting at target ranges outside the city or take their guns to second homes elsewhere in New York state. Lower courts had rejected the challenge. The city’s top lawyer, Zachary Carter, urged the court to reject the case, arguing that the restrictions allowed New York police to reduce the number of guns carried in public. There are seven shooting ranges in the city and at least one in each of the city’s five boroughs, Carter said.

Point guard injuries slow Duke, NC State The Blue Devils and Wolfpack are looking for ways to survive while without the injured Tre Jones and Markell Johnson By Brett Friedlander North State Journal DUKE WAS OFF and running in its game against Syracuse on Jan. 14, up 14-6 and looking every bit the part of the nation’s best team when point guard Tre Jones collided with the Orange’s Frank Howard while diving for a loose ball. Jones injured his shoulder on the play and missed the rest of the game at Cameron Indoor Stadium. Instead of running their ACC rival out of the gym, the Blue Devils struggled on both ends of the court in Jones’ absence. Even with a lineup that still included Zion Williamson and RJ Barrett, potentially the top two picks in this year’s NBA Draft, Duke eventually lost 95-91 in overtime. The result and the circumstances that led to it were a reminder that the most important player on a team isn’t always that team’s best player. And that player is usually the point guard. It’s a notion Blue Devils coach Mike Krzyzewski acknowledged in his comments after the Syracuse loss. “We’re a different team (without Jones),” Krzyzewski said. “Obviously, we’re a different team.” Duke isn’t the only state ACC
squad whose identity has been altered because of the recent loss of one key player. Without junior Markell Johnson, who injured his hip in a fall the previous game against Pittsburgh, NC State suffered a stunning loss at league bottom feeder Wake Forest last Tuesday. It was a game in which the Wolfpack fell behind by as many as 22 points after settling for too many 3-pointers over the Deacons’ zone defense. State eventually battled back to tie the score. But with the game on the line, Johnson’s absence became a factor again when its offense stagnated — a breakdown that might not have happened had the team’s starting point guard been on the floor. “He’s the one guy that can create for himself and others,” Wolfpack coach Kevin Keatts said. “Braxton (Beverly) can certainly shoot the ball, Devon Daniels and C.J. Bryce are both great at getting to the hole, but Markell gives you both of them. “He can get to the rack and also spray to shooters. Remember, he led the ACC in assists last year, but he can also go get you a basket. That’s tough.” Johnson is officially listed as day-to-day. The negative impact of his absence is hardly a surprise to Keatts. The Wolfpack was only 4-3 in the seven games the 6-foot-1 Cleveland native missed last season while dealing with a legal issue back home. It went 17-9 in games Johnson played.

By Shawn Krest North State Journal THE CHARLOTTE HORNETS faced a midseason test this week, and they passed with flying colors. It was the end of a tough West Coast road swing, and the Hornets were a disappointing 1-4 with losses at the Nuggets, Clippers, Blazers and Kings. Behind 33 points and five assists from Kemba Walker, however, the Hornets finished the trip on a positive note, beating the Spurs by 15 in San Antonio. Charlotte then returned home and knocked off the Kings in a rematch, winning by 19. Prior to the next home game, two days later, head coach James Borrego threw down the gauntlet for his team. “On that six-game road trip, the goal was to come out of that trip better as a team and as a unit, bonded together,” he said. “We did that. We validated that in San Antonio with a win on the road. We validated that in our
last game, against Sacramento. The challenge for this group now is can we do it a third time, or will we be complacent? Will we be OK with two wins and just relax tonight? We haven’t put together three, four, five wins consistently.” The Hornets responded, knocking off the Suns, 135115, recording a season-high in points. It continued what has been an encouraging start to the year for a Hornets team looking to return to the postseason for the first time since 2015-16. The Hornets currently cling to the eighth spot, with a two-game edge over the Pistons and Wizards. Charlotte is two games out of the sixth spot. Much like the winning streak, Borrego is happy with the team’s first-half performance but far from satisfied. “As a coach, you can’t really deal in the outside world — what are people thinking? That’s just not my focus,” he said. “My focus is this team. I know this team. I know where we want to go. Do we wish we had more wins than we have right now? Yes.” The Hornets are led by point guard Waker, the North State Journal’s 2018 Athlete of the Year. Already a two-time all-star See HORNETS, page B2

Jonathan Stewart: The former Carolina Panthers running back has purchased a popular local media platform in Charlotte. Charlotte Lately announced Wednesday that Stewart and his wife, Natalie, have purchased the company. Charlotte Lately started as an Instagram handle in 2015, and has grown to include a print publication and events. Stewart was drafted by the Panthers in the first round of the 2008 draft and played with Carolina until he was cut last February. Eddie Faulkner: The NC State assistant is headed to the NFL, joining the Steelers as their new running backs coach, the team announced last Thursday. Faulkner replaces James Saxon, whose contract was not renewed after the Steelers finished 9-6-1 and missed the playoffs. Faulkner spent the last six years as the Wolfpack’s tight ends/running backs coach and special teams coordinator, and he worked closely with Pittsburgh rookie running back Jaylen Samuels at NC State. Jim Hostler: The Panthers named the former Green Bay Packers assistant as their new receivers coach, the team announced Friday. Hostler was the Green Bay’s passing game coordinator this season but was allowed to seek other opportunities by new coach Matt LaFleur, who replaced longtime coach Mike McCarthy. Next year will be Hostler’s 19th season as an NFL assistant with eight teams. He was on the 49ers’ staff with current Panthers offensive coordinator Norv Turner in 2006.

Walker leads the team in scoring with a career-high 25.0 points per game, good for 12th in the league. He’s also the team leader in assists at 5.6 per game, steals at 1.2 and 3-pointers, with a career-best 3.2. His 149 long-range shots on the year rank fifth in the NBA, and he is among the league leaders in minutes played, steals and free throws. In his seventh season, Jeremy Lamb has blossomed into a reliable second option for Charlotte. Lamb has hiked his scoring average by more than two points per game, to a career-high 15.1, to go with a career-best rebounding average of 5.6. Flanking Walker and Lamb are a strong group of veterans showing they still have plenty left in the tank. Offseason pickup Tony Parker, age 36, and former Tar Heel Marvin Williams, 32, have both improved their scoring after dropoffs last season. Thirty-year-old Nicholas Batum is also contributing 8.9 points, 3.4 assists and 5.2 boards a night.

Hopefully, we’re a couple weeks away — no setbacks, in great shape. When he comes back we’ll be an even better team.” While the starting lineup has impressed, the strength of the Hornets may be the team’s bench, led by Parker. “We trust our bench,” Borrego said. “We’re very deep. We like our depth. When Cody gets back, we’ll even become a deeper team.” In his second season, Malik Monk has taken a step forward, improving his scoring average by 3½ points, to 10.2, and improving his shooting percentage, which still needs work, by 36 points. He’s the team’s third-leading scorer. Michael Kidd-Gilchrist (7.9 points, 4.6 rebounds), Willy Hernandez (7.7 and 5.7) also pace Charlotte’s second unit. The Hornets have gotten themselves into position to make the postseason, but they still have work to do. “If the playoffs started today, would we be in? Yes,” Borrego said. “This team is getting better, though. That’s my challenge right now. That’s all I focus on, day-today. Are we getting better? Are we growing?”

Wake Forest golf phenom ready to turn pro at 17 Akshay Bhatia plans to skip college and play on tour next January
“It’s really different from when guys were growing up and doing it back in 2000, 2005.”
By Shawn Krest North State Journal “GOLF’S NOT EASY.” Anyone that’s tried to play the sport at any level knows that Akshay Bhatia speaks the truth. That’s not stopping the 16-year-old Wake Forest golfing phenom from embarking on a bold plan. Despite interest from colleges around the country, including Oklahoma State and USC, Bhatia has announced that he plans to skip college and go pro. “I guess I know what I want to do,” Bhatia said. “I know I have some great people around me. I kind of know the right way. I’ve gotten better every single year. This past year was really unbelievable and put me in position mentally to say that I’m ready to do it.” While leagues like the NBA and NFL have rules preventing high school players from making the leap to the pros, the PGA has no barriers to Bhatia. The current timeline has Bhatia turning pro in January of 2020. “I’ll go to Q School (the tournament where aspiring pros compete to earn their “tour card”) at the end of this year,” he said. “Hopefully I’ll get some starts sometime soon.” That plan is subject to change, but not in the way most people would expect. Bhatia isn’t worried about a slump or injury slowing his march to the pros. “U.S. Amateurs,” Bhatia said. “If I win that or get into the finals, I’ll probably hold off on turning pro in January. Possibly, if I win U.S. Juniors, getting the exemption to the U.S. Open, I might hold off as well. Other than that, nothing else.” Clearly, Bhatia isn’t lacking for confidence — with good reason. He finished the season as the topranked junior player and won the AJGA Rolex Boys Player of the Year. His season included a victory at the Junior Invitational at Sage Valley, then knocked down an im-

Akshay Bhatia, a 16-year-old golfer from Wake Forest, plans to turn pro next January, forgoing a college career. pressive 45-yard putt to win the Junior PGA. Bhatia is also training like a pro. A recent Whistle docuseries on YouTube titled “No Days Off” followed him for a typical day’s practice and workout regimen. “I don’t think I’ll need to change anything,” he said of his current training plan. “Just getting stronger, maybe get just a little more specific on what I’m going to practice and stuff. I’ve talked to my coaches about it, for sure. You try to outwork everyone else. In any
sport or anything you’re trying to do, whether it’s working for a company or working at a sport, you try to outwork everyone else. I’m definitely on the right track.” There are some cautionary tales for Bhatia in recent history. Most notably, perhaps, is Raleigh’s Ty Tryon, who turned pro in 2001 at age 16 but struggled with health problems and inconsistency, going seven years without making a PGA cut at one point. Bhatia isn’t worried about repeating the past, however.
“No concerns,” he said. “Everyone had their own way to do it. They (past players) probably made a hiccup in the road or something. But I have everything I need to be one of the best players in the world. It’s really different from when guys were growing up and doing it back in 2000, 2005. It’s a very different era, for sure.” Plus, Bhatia pointed out, there are also plenty of success stories. Australia’s Geoff Ogilvy, Spain’s Sergio Garcia, South Africa’s Trevor Immelman and Justin Rose,
and Sweden’s Henrik Stenson are among the players to turn pro young without playing in college. “A lot of international players have done it,” Bhatia said. “It’s definitely not anything new. It’s just new to American golfers.” Bhatia said that the professional golfers he’s spoken to seem to approve of his plan. “People have their opinions, but at the end of the day, people support my decision,” he said. “I hang out with a couple of Web.com Tour (golf’s equivalent of a minor league to the PGA Tour) guys. They’ve helped me a lot to mentally grow. They’ve taught me a lot of secrets that will help a lot when first playing on the tour.” Still, there’s a difference between playing with Web.com guys and matching up against the world’s best. “The biggest adjustment will be just getting used to playing with guys like Dustin Johnson, Justin Thomas and Tiger,” he said. “That’s going to be the hardest thing. Other than that, it’s just going out there trying to win. Everyone has the same mindset, just at a different level.” Bhatia realizes that a year or two at college might help him to have the proverbial fallback plan, should the golf tour not work out for whatever reason. But he’s not about to hedge his bet. “I really don’t have anything,” he said of his own fallback options. “In my opinion, if you’re already thinking about having a backup plan, you’re planning yourself for failure. I’m trying to be the best in the world. That’s the mindset I have. I’m not thinking about a backup plan at all.”
Glen Wood, longtime NASCAR team owner, dies at 93 The Wood Brothers, Glen and Leonard, were a mainstay in Cup racing By Jenna Fryer The Associated Press Glen Wood, the courtly and innovative patriarch of the famed Wood Brothers Racing team who had been the oldest living member of the NASCAR Hall of Fame, died Friday. He was 93. He died on Friday in Stuart, Va., after a long illness. Wood Brothers announced the death of its team founder on social media. The team thanked “family, friends, friends, our smalltown Virginia community of Patrick County, as well as everyone in the NASCAR community for their unwavering support.” Wood, alongside younger brother Leonard, co-founded the Wood Brothers Racing team in 1953, and won four races over an 11-year racing career. Glen Wood in 1998 was named one of NASCAR’s 50 Greatest Drivers — a list that included 20 drivers who had once raced a Wood Brothers car. Wood is also a member of Virginia Sports Hall of Fame and in 2011 was elected to the NASCAR Hall of Fame. “This is a difficult day for all of us at Ford Motor Company,” said Edsel B. Ford II, a member of Ford’s board of directors. “The Wood Brothers race team, by any measure, has been one of the most successful racing operations in the history of NASCAR. Most importantly for our company, Glen and his family have remained loyal to Ford throughout their 69year history. “Glen was an innovator who, along with his family, changed the sport itself. But, more importantly, he was a true Southern gentleman who was quick with a smile and a handshake and he was a man of his word. I will cherish the memories of our chats in the NASCAR garage, at their race shop in Mooresville or the racing museum in Stuart.” The Wood Brothers came from humble beginnings but built a race team ahead of its time that still competes at NASCAR’s top level. The Wood Brothers won 99 races in more than 1,500 starts in NASCAR’s elite division and

Glen Wood, right, shows off his induction ring as his brother, Leonard Wood, left, looks on during the NASCAR Hall of Fame induction ceremony at the 2012 NASCAR Hall of Fame in Charlotte. Glen Wood, patriarch of the famed Wood Brothers Racing team and the oldest living member of the NASCAR Hall of Fame, died after a long illness, in Stuart, Va. He was 93. they did it with an array of manufacturers and multiple star drivers. Wood was the primary driver when the team was launched and won four times. “We started racing in 1950 with a car we bought for $50,” Wood told The Associated Press as the team readied for its 1,000th start in 2000. “We put No. 50 on the side of the car because it just seemed like the right thing to do. Now here we are 50 years later.” The car number was eventually changed to No. 21, which is now one of the most iconic numbers in NASCAR. Among those who have driven for the team were David Pearson, Cale Yarborough, Curtis Turner and A.J. Foyt. Pearson waged most of his battles with rival Richard Petty while driving
for the Wood Brothers. Wood drove in the inaugural 1959 Daytona 500 and won the race five times as team owner. He attended every Speedweeks in Daytona since 1947 until his deteriorating health and fear of widespread flu kept him home for the first time last season. “He made up his own mind, we didn’t ask him anything. We were just like, if he wants to go, he’ll say so, and he just made the decision himself that he just didn’t want to risk getting sick,” son Eddie Wood said last February. The Wood Brothers have won at least one NASCAR race in each of the last six decades. The team was formed in 1950 and won the Daytona 500 in 1963 (Tiny Lund), 1968 (Yarborough), 1972 (Foyt),
1976 (Pearson) and 2011 (Trevor Bayne). Wood was nicknamed “The Woodchopper” because he first worked in a sawmill and, legend has it, he initially adorned “The Woodchopper” on cars he entered at Bowman Gray Stadium. Along with younger brother Leonard, the team used innovation to create new designs in the search for speed and reliability. Wood was first hooked on racing when he made a trip to Daytona Beach, Florida, to watch cars on the beach-road course in 1947. His driving days ended in 1964, but he and brother Leonard carried on the team. The Wood Brothers entered the Indianapolis 500 in 1965 as the pit crew for Jim Clark. Four Wood
brothers — Glen, Leonard, Delano and Ray Lee — serviced Colin Chapman’s famed Lotus Powered-by-Ford driven by Clark, the most glamorous Formula One driver of the day. Clark won the race. Trevor Bayne won the Daytona 500 in 2011 driving for the Wood Brothers, the team’s first win in more than a decade. Roger Penske and Ford Motor Co. strengthened its alignment with the Wood Brothers in 2016 and Ryan Blaney won his first Cup race the next season. Blaney now drives inhouse for Team Penske, but Penske-affiliated driver Paul Menard pilots the No. 21 for the Wood Brothers with personnel and technological support from the Penske organization.

Hurricanes forward Teuvo Teravainen signed a five-year, $27 million extension to remain in Carolina.
Don’t overlook Teravainen’s new deal with Hurricanes In giving the 24-year-old winger a five-year deal worth $27 million, the Hurricanes have locked up a key player By Cory Lavalette North State Journal RALEIGH — In a way, the announcement that the Carolina Hurricanes had re-signed forward Teuvo Teravainen to a fiveyear, $27 million contract extension seemed like a footnote to other ongoing negotiations. “It’s great news,” coach Rod Brind’Amour said Monday before himself moving on to other pressing matters. “We’ve got a few guys we’ve got to lock up and obviously figure that out. it’s one step in that process. The management group here has done a nice job assembling the group, and now we’ve got to, obviously, keep it together or continue to add.” First off, there’s Sebastian Aho — the team’s best player and, like Teravainen was, a pending restricted free agent at season’s end. As the 2018-19 season continues, Aho’s contribution — and likely his asking price — has grown. Entering Tuesday’s game in Calgary, Aho was tied for 18th in the NHL in scoring with 54 points (21 goals, 33 assists) in 48 games in his first season as a full-time center. That’s on par with Buffalo’s Jack Eichel, who is a year older and in the first season of an eight-year, $80 million extension, and Edmonton’s Leon Draisaitl, who’s in the second year of an eight-year, $68 million deal. Simply put, Aho is going to get his money. Then there’s Micheal Ferland, the intimidating power forward who will be an unrestricted free agent at season’s end. Ferland, acquired this offsea-
son in the trade that also brought defenseman Dougie Hamilton and prospect Adam Fox to Carolina in exchange for Noah Hanifin and Elias Lindholm, has fit perfectly on a line with Aho and Teravainen. The Swan River, Manitoba, native, however, is primed for a life-altering deal that could see him earning more annually on a long-term deal than he’s made total in the first six years of his career. With an asking price that sources have said rivals San Jose winger Evander Kane’s seven-year, $49 million contract, Carolina will likely deal Ferland ahead of the trade deadline rather than losing him for nothing on July 1. Which brings us back to Teravainen. With the noise around the Aho and Ferland negotiations and fervor over the team’s two first-year pros — Andrei Svechnikov and Martin Necas — it’s easy for the 24-year-old to get lost in the mix. But that doesn’t change the fact he’s a proven commodity alongside Aho and on pace for a second consecutive 60-point season. Aho is already close to reaching 60 points at the All-Star break, and Teravainen would need 21 points in the season’s final 34 games — a .62 point-per-game pace that is about three-quarters of what he’s produced thus far this season (0.81) — to do it for a second straight year. Only 33 times since the franchise relocated to North Carolina in 1997 has a player recorded 60 or more points in a season. It’s a list of 14 players that shows what kind of company Teravainen is in. It includes: Eric Staal (8 times), Jeff O’Neill (4), Ron Francis (3), Ray Whitney (3), Rod Brind’Amour (2), Sami Kapanen (2), Keith Primeau (2), Jeff Skinner (2), Justin Williams (2), Aho (1), Erik Cole (1), Jussi Jokinen (1), Cory Stillman (1) and
“I love this team, I love my teammates here and all the organization. ... I feel like we’re going in the right direction — a lot of great young players. So I really want to be part of the future and get better with them.” Teuvo Teravainen Teravainen (1). It’s also worth noting that in the last full eight seasons, only seven times has a Hurricanes player cracked 60 points, and three were by Staal. In the last four full seasons, there were 83 instances of a forward putting up 20-goal, 40-assist seasons, and you’re hardpressed to find many flukes on the list. There are a couple of career year guys — Alexander Steen’s 64-point campaign in 2014-15 was his best season — and some who later received inflated contracts they’ve been unable to live up to, such as Kyle Okposo, who actually did it twice with the Islanders (201314, 2015-16) and was then overpaid by Buffalo. Teravainen may not find his face on billboards and the subject of extensive marketing campaigns, but he’s an under-the-radar difference-maker for the Hurricanes — and at $5.4 million annually through 2024, he could prove to be a bargain. “I love this team, I love my teammates here and all the organization,” Teravainen said after signing his new contract. “I feel like we’re going in the right direction — a lot of great young players. So I really want to be part of the future and get better with them.”
Recently retired NASCAR superstar Dale Earnhardt Jr., champion golfer Davis Love III and former NC A&T and NC Central football coach Rod Broadway lead a class of 12 new members named to the North Carolina Sports Hall of Fame on Tuesday. The group is a diverse collection of athletes and coaches — along with a conservationist and an artist — representing eight different sports. Joining Earnhardt, Love and Broadway in this year’s class are former NFL player and sports artist Ernie Barnes, Durham Hillside and North Carolina College football coach Willie Bradshaw, former state game and fish committee chairman Eddie Bridges, former ACC commissioner Gene Corrigan, wrestling coach Steve Gabriel, women’s basketball referee Dee Kantner, former UNC quarterback Paul Miller, sports promoter and state tennis Hall of Famer Neill McGeachy, and multisport coach Thell Overman. The new Hall of Famers were officially be inducted into the state shrine in a ceremony on May 3 at the Raleigh Convention Center. Earnhardt is by far the highest-profile member of the incoming class. The Kannapolis native earned his spot in the Hall alongside his late father by winning 26 Cup races, including a pair of Daytona 500s, on his way to becoming the most popular driver on the NASCAR circuit. Love is also nationally known through his success on the golf course during a career that began as an All-American at UNC. As a professional, the Charlotte native won 21 tournaments, including the 1997 PGA Championship. Broadway completed a 39-year career as a college football coach in 2017 by leading NC A&T to an undefeated season and the Historically Black Colleges and Universities national championship. In doing so, he became the only coach to win HBCU titles at three different schools. The Oakboro native, who started his football career as a standout defensive lineman at

POINT GUARDS from page B1 To its credit, State quickly adjusted to the absence of its floor leader by bouncing back to beat Notre Dame on the road Saturday. But for the Wolfpack to be at its best, it needs Johnson back on the floor sooner rather than later. No one on the team knows that better than his replacement Beverly. Although Beverly is a capable enough ballhander, he is a much better shooter when he’s playing off the ball. The numbers from the Wake Forest and Notre Dame games bear that out. A 39-percent 3-point shooter for the season, he’s just 4 for 16 from beyond the arc and 4 for 20 overall without Johnson in the lineup. “With Markell out it puts so much pressure on Braxton Beverly, because he has to dribble the ball, shoot the ball and pass the ball,” Keatts said. “He’s a guy who really struggles more than anybody with Markell out of the game.” Like Johnson, Duke’s Jones has the ability to make those around him better. His injury against Syracuse had more of an immediate effect because in addition to already being without shooting guard Cam Reddish, who missed the game with an illness, the Blue Devils were forced

With Barrett running the point, they were either unable or unwilling to get the ball inside the Syracuse zone to the nearly unstoppable Williamson, opting instead to hoist up 43 3-pointers — missing
34 of them. Jones’ absence was even more noticeable on defense, where he is considered one of the best in the country. With him on the floor, the Orange was barely able to get into its offense. He had four steals in five minutes before he got hurt. With-
UNC, finished his career with a 125-45 record. A native of Durham, Barnes played football at what was then known as North Carolina College (now NC Central). After five seasons in the NFL, he became an internationally acclaimed artist known as “America’s Best Painter of Sports.” He did work for the NFL, NBA, the Pro Football Hall of Fame and the 1984 Los Angeles Olympic Organizing Committee before his death from leukemia in 2009. Bradshaw coached football for 15 years at Durham’s Hillside High School before moving on to North Carolina College, where he also served as athletic director. Bridges has been a leader in the promotion of hunting and fishing in North Carolina, along with a national leader in conservation. Through his work with the state Wildlife Resources commission, he developed the idea of lifetime hunting and fishing licenses, a program that has raised more than $110 million to date. Corrigan served as ACC commissioner from 1987-97 and is recognized as one of the most respected and influential administrators in college sports. Gabriel, a long-time resident of Boone and former football player at Appalachian State, founded the wrestling program at Appalachian High, where his teams went 140-0 over an amazing 13-year stretch. Kantner, from Charlotte, has been selected to work every NCAA Tournament since 1992 and has officiated in 22 women’s Final Fours, including 14 national championship games. Miller was a three-sport star at Ayden High School, leading both his football and basketball teams to undefeated seasons before moving on to UNC, where he led the ACC in total offense as a quarterback in 1971. McGeachy excelled as an athlete at Statesville High School and Lenoir-Rhyne University, earning induction into the NC Tennis Hall of Fame. He went on to become a successful sports promoter and later, the athletic director at his college alma mater.

out him, Syracuse’s Tyus Battle was able to go off for 32 points and lead his team to the upset victory. “When you lose a player as important as him, as talented as him, it’s going to affect you a little bit,” Duke forward Javin DeLaurier said. “We just let it affect us for too long. You hate to see a guy who’s so
important to your team go down, but at the same time, the game goes on and life goes on, and you’ve got to be ready to step up.” The Blue Devils did just that in their next game, regrouping to knock Virginia from the ranks of the unbeaten behind a combined 57 points from Barrett and Williamson. Although they were able to prevail in the battle of ACC frontrunners, Krzyzewski — like Keatts — will feel a lot better about his team’s chances moving forward once its most important player is able to come back. “I knew he’d be good, (but) there’s no way I’d think that he’d be this good because I had not coached him,” Krzyzewski said of Jones, whose brother Tyus helped the Blue Devils win their most recent national championship in 2015. “Once I started coaching him, I said, ‘This kid is really outstanding on the ball. He has the discipline, athleticism and the will to do it.’ He’s done a fantastic job on the ball on defense and with the ball on offense.” Although there’s still no timetable for Jones’ return, the injury isn’t as serious as originally feared. “He’s making really good progress, which is good,” Krzyzewski said, “because it looked like he might be out for most of the season.”

NC products head to Super Bowl Players, coaches, front office from the Tarheel State will be represented in New Orleans By Shawn Krest North State Journal Todd Gurley was thrilled that the Rams made it to the Super Bowl. In addition to getting to play in the biggest game in all of sports, the Rams running back will get another chance to have an impact on his team’s run for a championship. Gurley, the team’s leading rusher since the team drafted him in 2015, had only four carries for 10 yards in the NFC championship game win over the Saints, although he did have a touchdown that helped Los Angeles come back from an early 13-0 deficit. Gurley denied reports that he was injured, saying he was just “sorry as hell” during the game. “That’s why I was so emotional,” he said. “Just to get another opportunity. I’m so grateful to be playing on the biggest stage ever.” The Tarboro alumnus also returns his high school to the spotlight. Gurley will attempt to be the second Tarboro player to win
a Super Bowl ring, joining Kelvin Bryant, who won one with the Redskins in 1987. Gurley is far from the only member of the Rams or Patriots with connections to the Old North State, although he’s probably the most important North Carolina product who will be on the field in two Sundays. Gurley suffered a minor knee injury late in the regular season, and, as an insurance policy, the Rams signed C.J. Anderson, who started the year on the Panthers roster. He was released in mid-November after rushing for 104 yards in nine games with the Panthers. Anderson rushed for 123 yards and two touchdowns in a playoff win over Dallas, then added 44 in the win over New Orleans. It was the first time in four games as a Ram that Anderson didn’t score or top 100 yards. The Rams also have plenty of North Carolina connections who won’t be on the field for the Super Bowl. Former Tar Heel receiver Austin Proehl is a member of the team’s practice squad. The Charlotte native has spent time with the Buffalo, Tennessee and L.A. practice squads in his first year as a pro. Former Duke safety Matt Dan-
iels is an assistant special teams coach for the Rams. He spent his first two of his four NFL seasons with the Rams before moving on to coaching. Bill Nayes is a member of the Rams operations staff with the title of assistant to the head coach. He spent two years in a similar role at NC State as Dave Doeren’s director of football operations from 2013-14. Former Wolfpack defensive lineman and Winston-Salem native Ray Agnew is the Rams’ director of pro personnel. The Patriots have four players with N.C. connections, led by Joe Thuney, who should set an NFL record. In his third year out of NC State, the offensive lineman is scheduled to start his third straight Super Bowl joining a handful of 1990s Bills and 1970s Dolphins to start the big game in each of their first three seasons. Only 10 other players matched Thuney with Super Bowl starts in their first two seasons. Thuney will also become just the second Wolfpack player to play in as many as three straight Super Bowls. Jim Richter was in four straight with the Buffalo Bills in the early 1990s. The only other Wolfpack players to even reach two Super Bowls in their career are San Francisco kicker Mike Cofer, Pats/Titans defensive end Mike Jones, Giants corner Perry Williams and three Seahawks — kicker Steven Hauschka, quarterback Russell Wilson and lineman J.R. Sweezy. With the Seahawks reaching the Super Bowl in 2014 and 2015, the Panthers, with receiver Jer-

That’s the second-longest stretch in history, behind a nine-year run from 1989 to 1997. The Pats also feature tight end Dwayne Allen. The seven-year pro is a Fayetteville native and alumnus of Terry Sanford High. He’s headed to his second straight Super Bowl with the Pats after getting three catches in 13 regular season games. He appeared in both of this year’s playoff games,

The Garysburg-born Crossen graduated from Gaston’s Northampton County High. The final Patriot North Carolinian is defensive end Derek Rivers, who graduated from Kinston High. After missing all of his 2017 rookie year with a torn ACL, Rivers has appeared in just six games and one playoff contest this year.
Patriots-Rams set for a meeting of past and future Despite the NFC champions’ move from St. Louis to L.A., Super Bowl LIII will be a rematch from 2002 By Eddie Pells The Associated Press IT BEGAN in 2002, back when the Rams were in St. Louis and the Patriots were a plucky underdog standing in the way of a potential dynasty. So much has changed. This hasn’t: Bill Belichick and Tom Brady. The duo, every bit as formidable now as when they won that first title, face the Rams, now back in Los Angeles, in a Super Bowl rematch of sorts that pits the NFL’s past against its future. At 32, Sean McVay is the youngest Super Bowl coach. At 66, Bill Belichick has an NFL-record 30 playoff wins. At 24, Jared Goff is the youngest quarterback to win the NFC championship. At 41, Brady will be the oldest quarterback to start a Super Bowl. The Rams (15-3) are back in the Super Bowl for the first time since that meeting against the Patriots — and for the first time as the “Los Angeles Rams” since 1980, when they fell to the Steelers. The Patriots (13-5) are back for the third straight time — they lost to Philly last year — the fourth in five sea-

Patriots quarterback Tom Brady celebrates with his teammates after winning Sunday’s AFC championship game in Kansas City, Mo. sons and the ninth since Belichick got the New England dynasty on track in the 2002 win over St. Louis. The Rams duo of McVay and Goff has spent the past two seasons heralding the coming of a new age of football — one in which McVay’s reimagined offense has dealt a blow to the old, increasingly dated adage that teams ultimately must win championships with defense. The Rams have cracked 30 points in 13 of their 18 games this season. A generation ago, that
would’ve been novel; now, it’s normal. But to officially usher the NFL into a new era, the Rams will have to get past New England, which is a 1-point favorite for the game in Atlanta, set for Feb. 3 — exactly 17 years to the date of the last Super Bowl showdown, and a bit more than three months since the Boston Red Sox topped the Los Angeles Dodgers for the World Series. (Who will Magic and Bird cheer for? Stay tuned.) Is Brady up to it?
Well, on Sunday, he drove the Patriots down the field for three straight touchdowns — two in the fourth quarter and once in overtime — for a 37-31 victory over the Chiefs, the only team that gained more yards than Los Angeles this season. It put an end to the dream of a rematch between two teams of the future — Rams vs. Chiefs — who delivered a wildly entertaining, defense-optional touchdown-fest in a 54-51 Rams victory in November. Instead, we get a “rematch” of that 2002 Super Bowl, won by the Patriots 20-17. The Rams came into that game as a franchise on the edge of a dynasty. They were one season removed from their first Super Bowl win, led by quarterback Kurt Warner and known as “The Greatest Show on Turf” for the fake grass they burned up at their sevenyear-old home in St. Louis. They had amassed what was then unheard of — 500-plus points in three straight seasons — and were a two-touchdown favorite against Belichick and Brady, who was in his second year and best known as the sixth-round draft pick Belichick stuck with after Drew Bledsoe got injured. New England used ball control, defense and a last-second field goal to topple Warner and the Rams. On the surface, the task figures to not be all that different this time around, though Brady is showing
he’s perfectly capable of matching opponents touchdown-for-touchdown. Sunday’s win adds to a Week 6 victory over Kansas City by the score of 43-40. The Patriots ranked fifth in overall offense this season, only 28 yards a game behind the Rams. Theirs is an offense built around Brady, his mastery of diagnosing defenses at the line of scrimmage and his ability to use interchangeable parts on his offense over the years. (Receiver Julian Edelman and tight end Rob Gronkowski have stood out most recently.) And stability. Offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels has interviewed for jobs virtually every year since returning to Foxborough after short stints in Denver and St. Louis. He was out the door for Indy last year but changed his mind and returned once again to call plays for Belichick. As for the Rams, they improved from 10th last year in offense to second this season, as McVay and Goff found their footing. But maybe the most telling sign of their success is that McVay’s offensive assistants are, as a group, the most sought-after sideline talent in the league. Two left after last season. Two more, quarterbacks coach Zac Taylor and tight ends coach Shane Waldron, are drawing attention this season. Now, the ultimate question: If they leave, will they do so with a Super Bowl ring?
Always Dry. Always Comfortable.

ATSUSHI NISHIJIMA | FOX SEARCHLIGHT FILMS VIA AP
This image released by Fox Searchlight Films shows Olivia Colman in a scene from the film “The Favourite.” On Tuesday, Jan. 22, 2019, the film was nominated for an Oscar for best picture. The 91st Academy Awards will be held on Feb. 24, 2019.
‘Roma,’ ‘The Favourite’ lead Oscar nomination with 10 nods By Jake Coyle The Associated Press NEW YORK — Oscar voters on Tuesday showered Alfonso Cuaron’s “Roma” and Yorgos Lanthimos’ “The Favourite” with a leading 10 nominations for the 91st Academy Awards, while two dominant but contentious Hollywood forces — Netflix and Marvel — each scored their first best picture nomination. Though many expected “A Star Is Born,” Bradley Cooper’s tear-inducing revival of one of Hollywood’s most oft-remade show-business myths, to top the nominations, Cooper was surprisingly overlooked as director and the academy instead put its fullest support behind a pair of indies by international directors. With the black-and-white, Spanish-language “Roma,” Netflix scored its first best picture nomination, a prize the streaming giant has dearly sought. Marvel, too, joined the club with Ryan Coogler’s “Black Panther,” the first superhero movie ever nominated for best picture. Cuaron tied the record for most decorated Oscar nominee ever for one film with four individual nods for “Roma,” his deeply personal exhumation of his Mexico City childhood. Cuaron was nominated for direction, cinematography, original screenplay and best picture. Only Orson Welles (“Citizen Kane”) and Warren Beatty (who did it twice with “Reds” and “Heaven Can Wait”) have matched the four-nod feat. Just as rewarded Tuesday was Lanthimos’ period romp, which resounded most in the acting categories thanks to its trio of actresses: Olivia Colman in the best actress category, and Rachel Weisz and Emma Stone in supporting. Along with “Roma” and “The Favourite,” the eight nominees for best picture were: Peter Farrelly’s interracial road trip tale “Green Book,” Ryan Coogler’s superhero sensation “Black Panther,” Spike Lee’s white supremacist evisceration “BlacKkKlansman,” the Freddie Mercury biopic “Bohemian Rhapsody,” Adam McKay’s highly critical Dick Cheney biopic “Vice” and “A Star Is Born,” which still landed eight nominations, including best actress for Lady Gaga and best supporting actor for Sam Elliott. “Black Panther,” the year’s biggest domestic box-office hit and a bona fide cultural event, finally cracked the category long kryp-

This image released by Twentieth Century Fox shows Rami Malek in a scene from “Bohemian Rhapsody.” On Tuesday, Jan. 22, 2019, Malek was nominated for an Oscar for best actor for his role in the film. The 91st Academy Awards will be held on Feb. 24. tonite to superheroes. Despite the overwhelming popularity of comic book movies, they had previously been shunned from Hollywood’s top honor to the consternation of some industry insiders. After “The Dark Knight” was snubbed in 2009, the academy expanded the best picture category from five to up to 10 nominees. The lush, big-budget craft of “Black Panther” was rewarded with seven total nominations, including Hannah Beachler and Jay Hart’s production design, Terence Blanchard’s score, Ruth Carter’s costume design and Kendrick
Lamar and SZA’s “All the Stars.” Beachler became the first African-American nominated for production design. There has likewise been resistance among some academy members to awarding Netflix films since the company typically bypasses movie theaters. Steven Spielberg has said Netflix films are more like TV movies and deserve an Emmy, not an Oscar. Netflix altered its policy for “Roma” and the Coen brothers’ “The Ballad of Buster Scruggs” (which earned three unexpected nods), premiering them first in theaters before
debuting them on Netflix. In turn, it was rewarded with 13 nominations overall, second only to Fox Searchlight’s 15. Thirty years after landing a writing nod for 1989’s Do the Right Thing,” Spike Lee was nominated for his first directing Oscar for his “BlacKkKlansman.” The other directing nominees were Lanthimos, Cuaron, Pawel Pawlikowski (“Cold War”) and McKay (“Vice”) — a field that, a year after continued focus on gender inequality in Hollywood, included no female directors. Some had campaigned for Debra Granik (“Leave No Trace”) or Chloe Zhao (“The Rider”) to become the sixth woman ever nominated for best director. The nominations, announced by Kumail Nanjiani and Tracee Ellis Ross from the Samuel Goldwyn Theatre in Beverly Hills, California, included plenty of surprises. In a banner year for documentaries, the Fred Rogers documentary “Won’t You Be My Neighbor” was snubbed despite more than $22 million in ticket sales (a huge sum for a doc). Instead the nominees were “Free Solo,” ‘’Hale County This Morning, This Evening,” ‘’Minding the Gap,” ‘’Of Fathers and Sons” and the Ruth Bader Ginsberg portrait “RBG.” The acting categories played out largely as expected with a few notable differences. Along with Lady Gaga and Colman, the best actress nominees are Yalitza Aparicio (“Roma”), Glenn Close (“The Wife”) and Melissa McCarthy (“Can You Ever Forgive Me?”). In best actor, the expected front runner Christian Bale was nominated for his transformation into Cheney in “Vice” (his fourth Oscar nod), along with Cooper, Willem Dafoe (“At Eternity’s Gate”), Rami Malek (“Bohemian Rhapsody”) and Viggo Mortensen (“Green Book”). Notably left out were Ethan Hawke (“First Reformed”) and John David Washington (“BlacKkKlansman”). The nominees for best supporting actress were Amy Adams (“Vice”), Marina De Tavira (“Roma”), Regina King (“If Beale Street Could Talk”), along with Stone and Weisz. Tavira was something a surprise, likely unseating Claire Foy of “First Man.” But perhaps the biggest acting snub came in best supporting actor, where Timothee Chalamet, who broke through last year with “Call Me By Your Name,” was left out for his drug addict turn in “Beautiful Boy.” Nominated were previous winner Mahershala Ali (“Green Book”), Adam Driver (“BlacKkKlansman”), Richard E. Grant (“Can You Ever Forgive Me?”) and Sam Rockwell (“Vice”), who won the trophy last year. Some Oscar regulars were honored again. Joel and Ethan Coen notched their seventh screenwriting nomination. Close, never a
winner, landed her seventh acting nod. But the nominees were crowded with first-timers, including new performers (Aparicio) and veteran ones (Grant, Colman, Driver, King). Paul Schrader, the 72-year-old “Taxi Driver” scribe, was nominated for his first Oscar for the script to his religious thriller “First Reformed.” The lead-up to Tuesday’s nominations was rocky for both the film academy and some of the contending movies. Shortly after being announced as host, comedian Kevin Hart was forced to withdraw over years-old homophobic tweets that the comedian eventually apologized for. That has left the Oscars, one month before the Feb. 24 ceremony, without an emcee, and likely to stay that way. Some film contenders, like “Green Book” and the Freddie Mercury biopic “Bohemian Rhapsody,” have suffered waves upon waves of backlash, even as their awards tallies have mounted. Before landing five nominations Tuesday, “Green Book” — which has been criticized for relying on racial tropes — won the top award from the Producers Guild, an honor that has been a reliable Oscar barometer. In the 10 years since the Oscars expanded its best-picture ballot, the PGA winner has gone on to win best picture eight times. The season’s steadiest contender — Cooper’s “A Star Is Born” — looked potentially unbeatable until it got beat. Despite an enviable string of awards and more than $400 million in worldwide box office, Cooper’s lauded remake was almost totally ignored at the Golden Globes. Still, “A Star Is Born” was the sole film to land top nominations from virtually every guild group. Potentially benefiting this year’s broadcast will be a number of popular nominees. “Black Panther,” ‘’Bohemian Rhapsody” and “A Star Is Born” have all done enormous box office. Just how many people have seen “Roma,” though, remains a mystery. Netflix doesn’t release box office receipts or streaming viewership. It’s also an usually international crop of nominees. It’s only the second time directors from two foreign language films were nominated for best director (Cuaron and Poland’s Pawlikowski). “Roma” is aiming to be the first foreign language film to ever win best picture. Some of that could be attributed to changing academy, which has greatly expanded its ranks in recent years to diversify its membership, including more overseas members. Up for best foreign language film are “Roma,” ‘’Cold War” (Poland), “Capernaum” (Lebanon), “Never Look Away” (Germany) and the Palme d’Or winner, “Shoplifters” (Japan).
