ELECTION 2010
Cole to remain in county raceCommission District 4 candidate will accept job as Coats town managerBy BILLY [email protected]
SANFORD — The Democrat-ic candidate for this November’s Lee County Board of Commis-sioners District 4 seat says he’s still seeking the offi ce despite learning this week that he will
soon become the full-time town manager for Coats.
Kenneth C. Cole, who will face Republican Jim Womack for the seat to replace outgoing Commissioner Jamie Kelly, told The Herald Friday that he does not feel holding both positions — if elected — won’t be a con-
fl ict of interest. “The general statutes allow
you to serve dual roles,” Cole said. “One would be an elected position and one an appointed position. It might be viewed

Man shoots two, killing one, during drug deal gone awryBy BILLY [email protected]
LILLINGTON — A Spring Lake man is accused of shooting two men, killing one, in an apparent drug transaction that went awry late Tuesday near Lillington, Har-nett County investigators say.
Deputies say 29-year-old Glen Shonta Elliott, of Fuquay-Varina, was killed and his brother, 23-year-
old Anthony Ryan Elliott of Lilling-ton, was injured in the altercation.
Major Gary McNeill with the Harnett County Sheriff’s Offi ce said information in the case led to the arrest of 37-year-old Daniel Wayne Dority of Spring Lake.
Dority is charged with fi rst-de-gree murder and attempted fi rst-degree murder, the Sheriff’s Offi ce
RETRACING HISTORY
Local explorers relive Lewis & Clark’s journey through westBy CHELSEA [email protected]
SANFORD—To the left, a herd of buffalo thundered across the hillside. Across the river, elk lunched on the underbrush.
Ahead was hunger, hardship and uncertainty, but explorer William Clark recorded every detail of the scene, on orders
from then-president Thomas Jefferson.
Two hundred years later, former Sanford resident Robert Cline stood in the same spot along the Yellowstone River, reading from Clark’s journal and looking around in awe.
“Just sitting here thinking about it starts to put my hair on end—I was exactly where those
men stood 200 years ago,” Cline said. “Aside from going to the moon, that was probably the most exciting adventure anyone has ever been on.”
Clark and colleague Meri-wether Lewis were the leaders of the “Corps of Discovery” — now better known as the Lewis and Clark expedition — ordered by then-president Thomas Jef-
ferson to explore the uncharted West in search of the Northwest Passage in 1803. After a danger-ous three years and many nar-row escapes, the explorers made it to the Pacifi c Ocean with the help of Shoshone translator and guide Sacagawea, returning to St. Louis, Missouri, in 1806.

SANFORD — Need a haircut?
Local organizers for Sanford’s St. Baldrick’s event, scheduled for next weekend, are looking for a few good heads to shave to raise money for child-hood cancer research and show support for child
cancer patients who have lost their hair to chemo-therapy.
“Children are our most vulnerable victims,” event organizer Tony Chilton said. “They don’t under-stand why they’re sick, why they’re not ‘normal.’ I don’t want any parent to ever have to hear that

CHATHAM COUNTY
Series brings together farm, food and music
-PITTSBORO — It’s being called the Taproot Music Series, a sustainable blend of Sunday farm-fresh din-ners and Tar Heel music that will pulsate throughout the summer on a meadow stage set in a farm.
The Taproot series is the successor to the former Transmissions Festival, hailed at the time as a leading experimental music festival in North America, but which was last heard al-most 10 years ago. Slightly more than four years after returning to North Carolina from Chicago, Keenan Mc-Donald is resurrecting the latest iteration of the event.
The series will be held on Duck Run Farm in Pittsboro, at the end of Johnny Burke Road right past the oak trees and just above the duck ponds. It will offer the farm’s meats and veggies, while musicians and bands from across North Carolina will get together at the outdoor meadow stage for monthly Sunday evening concerts.
The musical series has a diverse schedule of North Carolina bands. The Taproot Music Series takes place right on the farm, and is put together by Duck Run & Friends. This farm, run by McDonald, is a project that is approaching the permaculture idea in a
unique fashion. Duck Run has found a new location, on land owned by Mark and Carol Hewitt.
McDonald and a team of workers operate the farm to provide organic produce, eggs and meat through markets and CSA, but will also offer a wood-fi red bakery and canning opera-tion. The process becomes a multi-faceted local food, art and business project that shows a fresh side to sustainability.
The series begins from 6 to 10 p.m. June 27 with music from Pittsboro resident Tom Maxwell and his band, with Sarah Shook opening. This dinner will be prepared by Posh Nosh Catering of Raleigh and the event is co-sponsored by Carolina Farm Stewardship Association and Country Farm & Home.

FORT BRAGG
Work begins on care center for wounded soldiers
FORT BRAGG (MCT) — Sick and wounded Fort Bragg soldiers will soon have a place to call their own.
Army offi cials broke ground Thursday on the Warrior in Transition Com-plex, an $88 million facility that will put almost all the needs of wounded warriors under one roof.
The facility will be one of only two such complexes in the nation; the other is at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington.
Lt. Col. Terrence Mc-Dowell, commander of the Warrior Transition Battalion, said the 250,000-square-foot complex will help coor-dinate medical care for the soldiers and consolidate administrative operations in one location.
McDowell said operations now are spread across post in nine locations.
The complex, which is expected to be completed by Dec. 31, 2012, will be at Normandy Drive and Reilly Street near Womack Army Medical Center. The sol-diers will get most of their health care at Womack.
The barracks building is expected to be completed sooner -- in March 2012 -- so wounded soldiers will have central housing near the hospital. The fi rst phase of construction is expected to begin in the fi rst week of July.

CHATHAM COUNTY
In partnership with Chatham County Sheriff Richard Webster’s community outreach efforts, the Jordan-Matthews High School Art Club designed and painted a mural for the Chatham County Sheriff’s Offi ce that will hang in the main entry area of the Pittsboro offi ce. An area high school art department creates a mural each year. Over a span of several meetings, the students created artwork on individual canvases that refl ected their appreciation for the work of the Sheriff’s Offi ce. Webster (middle) is seen here with art club members Shari Mason, Desmi Contreras, Cobey Mauldin, Jazmin Bacilio, Karen Bacilio, and Guile Contreras. Each member chose his or her own design that represented aspects of law enforcement. Some of the images included were the word “justice“ and a Sheriff’s badge. With the assistance of June Arthurs, art teacher and art club sponsor, the students were able to design and complete this mural. Arthurs noted the art club created this work in order to acknowledge the job well done by the Sheriff’s Offi ce staff who protect of all Chatham County’s citizens.
JOHN EDWARDS SCANDAL
Young fi les reviewed for perjuryBy BETH VELLIQUETTEDurham Herald-Sun
PITTSBORO (MCT) — The Orange-Chatham District Attorney’s Offi ce is reviewing testimony and fi les to determine whether Andrew Young or his wife, Cheri Young, committed perjury dur-ing contempt of court hearings held last winter after the Youngs refused a court order to turn over a videotape and pho-tographs to an Orange County Sheriff’s Offi ce deputy.
Assistant District At-torney Kayley Tabor, who works in the Pittsboro offi ce of District Attorney Jim Woodall, is reviewing the fi le. However, Woodall
emphasized the case is not one of his top priori-ties.
“This case has not been a priority mat-ter and is not a priority matter for this offi ce,” Woodall said.
Nevertheless, Tabor has started working on the case to determine whether either or both of the Youngs committed perjury.
“We’ve worked on it some,” Woodall said. “We’ve talked about it, but we’re not at the point where we’re making a decision.”
One of Hunter’s attor-neys prepared a thick fi le for the District Attorney’s Offi ce to review that con-tained the transcripts and
examples of alleged per-jury that occurred during a number of hearings that were held in Orange and Chatham counties last winter.
One of the claims of alleged perjury came from testimony and from affi davits when Andrew Young told the court that the videotape, showing former U.S. Sen. John Ed-wards engaged in sexual activities, was in a safe deposit box in Atlanta, when in fact the tape was in his Orange County home.
The notebooks con-taining the testimony and examples of alleged perjury were in the Cha-tham County Courthouse when it was gutted by fi re
in March.A person helping to
clean up after the fi re re-covered the notebooks in the burnt and wet rubble and brought them out of the courthouse, but they had been severely damaged, Woodall said. It didn’t really matter be-cause the attorney later provided Woodall with another set of the docu-ments.
But the fi re did destroy or damage many impor-tant criminal fi les, and the District Attorney’s Of-fi ce has focused its time and energy on recovering and rebuilding those fi les and preparing for the criminal cases they are prosecuting.
As the primary runoff campaign for the Democratic U.S. Senate nomi-nation draws to a close, it is fair to
ask what has been the hardest challenge for the two candidates.
I will tell you my answer in a minute. But first I am going to give you the name of a useful book that every statewide political candidate should carry in the front seat of the car.
Here is the book: The North Carolina Gazetteer, Second Edition: A Dictionary of Tar Heel Places and Their History. The new book is an update of the 1968 classic that was compiled by North Carolina history hero William Powell. Michael Hill from the N.C. Office of Archives and History updated Powell’s almost 20,000 entries and added about 1800 new cities, towns, crossroads, waterways, islands, mountains, coun-ties, and other geographical and historical points of interest.
Now, what is the challenge for political candidates and how would this book help? Consider the experience of one U.S. Sen-ate campaign in which the candidate was invited to give a speech at “the courthouse in Rockingham.” On the appointed date, the candidate arrived at the courthouse in Rockingham in Richmond County near the South Carolina border. Finding the court-house doors locked, he wondered why not a single supporter had shown up to greet him.
Meanwhile, at the Rockingham County Courthouse in Wentworth, not far from the Virginia border, the small group that had gathered to greet the candidate gradu-ally dispersed, wondering why he had not shown up.
With a quick look at page 448 of the Gazetteer, the candidate would have noted the two Rockinghams and their different locations. Also, he could have gotten a little interesting history to add to his speech — noting, perhaps, that Rockingham (both city and county) and Wentworth were named for the same man, Charles Watson-Wentworth, Marquis of Rockingham and a British Prime Minister who had been friendly to the American colonies.
Travelers in North Carolina, as well as candidates, get confused because so many county seats carry the names of coun-ties other than their own. For instance, Asheboro is the county seat of Randolph County and Asheville is the county seat of Buncombe County. The county seat of Ashe County is West Jefferson.
The county seat of Washington County is Plymouth, not Washington (“Little Wash-ington), which is the county seat of Beau-fort County. Beaufort is the county seat of Carteret County.
The Greene county seat is Snow Hill, not Greensboro (county seat of Guilford) or Greenville (country seat of Pitt). Pittsboro, meanwhile, is county seat of Chatham
County.Jackson County’s seat is Sylva, not
Jackson (county seat of Northampton) or Jacksonville (county seat of Onslow).
There are more. Columbus is county seat of Polk; Lenoir of Caldwell; Graham of Alamance; Franklin of Macon; Waynesville of Haywood; Yanceyville of Caswell; and Henderson of Vance (although Henderson-ville is, appropriately, the county seat of Henderson County.)
The Gazetteer takes care of this confu-sion about counties and county seats and other things that create problems for state-wide political candidates, who sometimes mispronounce the names of the places where they campaign, places like Robeson County (ROB-uh-son, according to the Gaz-etteer), Rowan County (ROW-an), Tyrrell County (Tir-ehl) and Beaufort (BOE-furt). I hope future editions will tell candidates and young public radio reporters how we pronounce Salisbury and Concord.
Also thanks to the Gazetteer, our U.S. Senate candidate could develop his or her foreign policy resume by visiting places like Warsaw, Belgrade, Dublin, Lisbon, Bolivia, and Arabia, without ever leaving North Carolina.
If you are looking for a gift for your fa-vorite political candidate or any other “seri-ous North Carolinian,” the Gazetteer might be the answer to your challenge.

June 13Winston-Salem Journal
Even repugnant ideas can have value. Look at the state House
idea to cap University of North Carolina student growth at 1 percent next academic year.
Our initial reaction is to de-clare that the American Dream is dead. A cap could deny thou-sands of students their chance at the most important creden-tial on a 21st-century resume.
Considering how clumsy the General Assembly can be, such a cap probably would be harm-ful to many people.
There is another way of look-
ing at a cap, however, and the key word would be “effi ciency.” Were the state’s education hierarchy — the State Board of Education, the State Board of Community Colleges and the UNC Board of Governors — to expand some things they are already doing, then a restraint on UNC student growth could be a winning proposition for all involved.
We are not endorsing a hard cap. A fl exible policy seeking to restrain some growth would be better. And such a policy could actually lead to more students earning their university de-grees.
The best way to restrain
expensive growth on the UNC campuses is to educate more freshmen and sophomores elsewhere. We can start in the high schools.
It costs a fraction of the price to teach Advanced Placement statistics or American history to a high-school junior than the same 100-level courses to a col-lege freshman. The facilities are less expensive and the teachers often are, too. When students do well enough in an AP course, they gain college credit. Thus, many of the best students show up for their fi rst years already owning credits toward their degrees.
The same can be said for
the community colleges. Many students have discovered that they can take core courses at the local two-year institution for much less than in Boone or Chapel Hill. They can live at home, too, then transfer to a four-year institution and gradu-ate with a lot less debt than other students. ...
There’s one hitch. The Legislature needs to give the public schools and the commu-nity colleges the resources to do their share of these efforts. And right now the Legislature is looking only to cut spending, not become more effi cient and effective.
County seat confusion
Enrollment cap could mean ‘effi ciency’

Are we in trouble?
From DR. MIKE WALDENN.C. Cooperative Extension
From my experience traveling around the state, constantly reading
numerous publications and just talking to people, I’ve reached one defi nite conclusion: there’s widespread belief the economy is in trouble. The concern is focused on two areas, jobs and debt. ...
First and foremost are jobs. Since December 2007 — the offi cial beginning of the reces-sion — the nation has lost over 8 million jobs, and North Carolina has shed more than 250,000 jobs. The big question is, when will those jobs begin to come back? The good news is, they already are. Since the beginning of this year for the nation — and the end of last year for North Carolina — the number of jobs has been increasing. So far, the gains have been a trickle, but at least the direction is up rather than down.
Economists are divided (as usual) on whether job openings will accelerate. Some say yes. They say employers overcom-pensated in cutting jobs when there was talk of a second Great Depression. As it becomes more evident that a second depression won’t occur, these economists see the job picture brightening considerably in coming months.
Other economists are less op-timistic. They see the overhang of debt keeping consumers from spending the way they did prior to the recession. Since consumer spending accounts for 70 per-cent of all economic activity, any slowdown in consumer spend-ing will result in slower sales for businesses and less job creation.
There’s one other major jobs issue. As jobs do come back, what kinds of jobs will they be? Will they be the same jobs that were lost, or will they be new types of jobs?
There’s overwhelming evi-dence the mix of jobs will be dif-ferent. Even without a recession, jobs change over time. ...
Now let me turn to today’s second major economic worry — debt. It seems like everywhere we look, there’s debt. Households have high debts. The federal government has high debt. And now, we read about the high debts of some foreign govern-ments, causing concerns about default and another recession. Is it just a matter of time before our entire economy collapses under the weight of debt?
My assessment is there isn’t an imminent possibility of such a collapse, but there is reason for long-run worries. Household debt did rise during the last three decades, mainly because the tremendous increase in the value of household investments (stocks, homes) allowed folks to borrow more. Now, with the recession reducing those invest-ment values, households are being forced to curtail their debt. Indeed, total household debt has fallen in the last three years. Many economists expect this trend to continue.
Federal government debt typically rises during recessions as increased government spend-ing is used to replace lower con-sumer spending, and the recent recession is no exception. ...
Many experts think the debt challenge won’t come from the borrowing that was done to fi ght the recession, but will come from another more fundamental source. The so’called “big three” government spending programs — Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid — are projected to grow at increasing rates and consume ever bigger shares of the federal budget and national income. This is not a new issue ...
What can be done? Although there are many possible solu-tions, I think compromise will force a two-pronged approach. Taxes will be increased, and benefi ts will be curtailed by mak-ing the big three programs less generous.
Borrowing from my meteoro-logical friends, I would call our economic future partly cloudy with the possibility of sunshine if the correct conditions prevail.
Make Louisiana aU.S. protectorate
A modest proposal: The federal government should take over Louisiana. Might as well, at
this point. “We will do whatever is necessary to
help the Gulf Coast and its people recov-er from this tragedy,” President Obama said this week from the Oval Offi ce.
Louisiana has had more than its share of tragedies in recent years, and some, such as Hurricane Katrina, could be deemed acts of nature. ... A protec-torate could provide the structure of governance its people need.
It’s hardly news that Louisiana’s political class is not all it could be. But there comes a time when the U.S. tax-payer can no longer write blank checks to cover its dysfunction.
Louisiana should be a rich state. It has the climate, location, waterfront and all-around beauty that any director of economic development would die for. But Louisiana doesn’t seem able to move beyond its dependence on oil.
Texas did it. Today, it is a major force in high-tech research, medical services, trade and manufacturing. Even its en-ergy business is modernized. The West Texas plains are home to an enormous wind power corridor, as entrepreneurs seek clever ways to make natural gas and wind work together. Thus, the Texas economy is one-sixth as sensitive to changes in the oil price as it was 30 years ago.
But in Louisiana, it’s oil all the time. ...
Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal appears fairly competent and smart. But look at the self-contradicting ideology he’s tangled in.
A year ago, Jindal provided the Republican response to Obama’s fi scal stimulus plan. “Democratic leaders in Washington,” he said, “they place their hope in the federal government.” (Never mind that as a congressman, Jindal ranked 14th in requests for federal pork.)
Jindal wants over 100 miles of sand berms to supposedly protect his coast-line. But the sand piles probably won’t work and could actually make matters worse, according to The Wall Street Journal. Most of the oil would hit shore, anyway. The dredging could cause more erosion and kill fi sh by changing the water’s salt content.
Though probably ineffective, the project is big and expensive. Jindal, meanwhile, is asking Obama to end the moratorium on the kind of new deep-water drilling that caused all this pain.
Much of southern Louisiana is under sea level and periodically fl oods. No sane person would build in these low-lying areas were it not for the federal taxpayer, who subsidizes fl ood cover-age where private insurers would never tread.
The Mississippi Delta wetlands used to provide a buffer against storms. They’ve been largely destroyed by river-moving projects, levees and canals cut by oil companies. ...
Louisiana need not remain a perma-nent ward of the federal government. As in the case of General Motors, Washing-ton could help change management, then set Louisiana free to run its own affairs. But something must be done.

said.McNeill said deputies
were called to Anthony Elliott’s residence on N.C. 27 shortly after midnight early Wednesday.
Anthony Elliott, who had suffered one gunshot wound to the arm, had driven there after the
shooting, McNeill said. His brother was found dead in the car with multiple gunshots to the upper torso.
Investigators say the brothers were in the midst of a drug transaction in the parking lot of a small country store at the in-tersection of N.C. 27 West and Spring Hill Church Road about eight miles west of Lillington when the shooting started.
Cocaine and marijuana were found at the scene of the shooting and at An-thony Elliott’s residence, McNeill said.
The Sheriff’s Offi ce said Anthony Elliott was taken to Betsy Johnson Re-gional Hospital in Dunn, where he was treated and released.
McNeill said he does not know what started the dispute.
Dority is being held
in Harnett County Jail. McNeill could not say if charges are pending for Anthony Elliott related to the drugs.
Dority’s arrest history includes charges of felony breaking and entering, possession of drug para-phernalia and breaking and entering vehicles dating back to 1991, ac-cording to the N.C. De-partment of Corrections online database.
their child has cancer ever again.”
The free event will take place at Cafe 121 on Cha-tham Street at 4 p.m. next Saturday, June 26.
So far, 42 people have signed up to have their heads shaved, but at least 100 more are needed to help raise the event goal of $25,000, Chilton said. Just show up the day of the event—cash, checks or credit card are accept-ed for donations—or sign up in advance on the St.
Baldrick’s website at www.stbaldricks.org/events.
About 160,000 children are diagnosed with cancer every year, Chilton said, and about 32,000 of them die of the disease.
Chilton has a personal connection to the event. He was diagnosed with ewing sarcoma at the age of 14, and lost his hair three times during his three years of chemo-therapy. An event like St. Baldrick’s would have been a comfort, he said.
“When you’re that age, you are concerned about how you look and really vulnerable to things people say,” Chilton said.
“I would have felt like part of a larger group, rather than feeling singled out.”
Chilton has dialed down the donation goal from past years because of the poor economy, but still hopes to surpass it as the event has in past
years.For those who aren’t
ready to go bald, Chilton encourages them to come support the shavees.
“It’s a very lively, festive event. Everybody’s yelling, everybody’s celebrating,” Chilton said.
Cline, who recently moved to Burlington after 45 years in Sanford, has traveled two-thirds of the explorers’ westward jour-ney, along with current Lee County resident John Lipscomb. As dedicated members of the award-winning Carolina Chapter of the Lewis and Clark Trail Heritage Foundation, the two men travel west as often as possible to retrace the journey that opened up the American West.
The men travel by foot, horseback, car or canoe. Along the way, they stop at each of the explorers’ camp sites to read from the journals and scope out the surviving land-marks, from Indian camps along the Knife River in
North Dakota, to the rock in Billings, Montana, where Lewis carved his name.
Of course, the trail has undergone some changes in the past 200 years.
“A lot of the rest of the trail has been developed,” Cline said. “They put a big Air Force base in one spot—that disturbs a little bit of the pristine element of it, to be looking along the trail and suddenly see this mile and a half of asphalt runway.”
Still, long stretches of the route are still clear and beautiful, and both men are eager to return.
On Thursday, Lip-scomb’s living room was cluttered with Lewis and Clark books, maps and memorobilia. He leaves today with his wife and daughter to walk a few more miles in the explor-
ers’ footsteps, sharing the experience with his family for the fi rst time.
Lipscomb, a retired junior high school history teacher, credits his fasci-nation with the journey to the explorers’ pioneer spirit and the dream of travel into an uncharted land ripe with adventure.
“Nobody knew what was west of the Missis-sippi River,” Lipscomb said. “It was incredibly exciting.”
Lipscomb’s journey started fi ve years ago, heading to Montana to travel a portion of the route. At the time, Lipscomb hadn’t camped since he was 13 years old. He didn’t know how to set up a tent, and he was terrifi ed of rattlesnakes. But the expedition had captured his imagination, and the chance to relive a
portion of it in person was irresistible — even if it meant “being in the back-woods, 150 miles from the nearest outhouse.”
“It’s humbling, and it makes you a better person — you appreciate what a hard life they had,” Lipscomb said. “You can’t help but be more spiritual when you’re out there in the middle of the wilder-ness.”
Lipscomb eyes light up when he is asked about the expedition. He can rattle off names and events, dates and loca-tions.
He hasn’t traveled as much of the trail as Cline, but his enthusiasm is contagious. His 15-year-old daughter, Johanna Lipscomb, has begun attending chapter meet-ings in full costume as Sacagawea.

as unethical were I to become a county man-ager, but a municipality is totally different than county government.”
According to the Dunn Daily Record, Cole will begin full-time in Coats on July 1 and is scheduled to make $58,000 a year beginning then. Cole’s hiring was unanimously approved by the Coats Town Board recently.
As he must be a county resident to run for offi ce, Cole said he will continue to live in Sanford and will commute the 30-mile dis-tance. He said Friday that despite the new position in another county, he is “100 percent dedicated” to public service in Lee County.
“I told (Coats offi cials) I was committed to Lee County, and the new job didn’t require me to move,” Cole said. “This is no different than being hired for another job in Raleigh and making that
commute.”Cole said he sees the
town manager position as a “win-win” should he be elected in November.
“I can take my experi-ence from the municipal government and use that and share my views with the commissioner if elected,” he said. “There’s no confl ict involved. When I’m in Coats, I’m the town manager, and when I’m in Lee County, I’d be a commissioner.”
Cole, who holds a civil engineering degree from North Carolina State Uni-versity, has most recently served as a consultant reviewing Animal Control procedures for the Lee County Board of Health. He served as Lee County’s assistant county manager in 2005.

GENERAL ASSEMBLY
Annexation bill shelvedRALEIGH (MCT)
— Legislation is being shelved that would have imposed new restrictions on how North Carolina municipalities annex people against their will, a state senator said Wednesday.
Involuntary annexa-tion has riled up many North Carolinians, including people in Fay-etteville. They complain they have to pay heavy taxes and get few and unwanted services in exchange.
Cities and towns can take in land without permission from the landowners. The policy drew a lot of attention in the mid-2000s, when Fay-etteville annexed 46,000 people at once.
Anti-annexation activ-
ists visited the capital Wednesday to pressure lawmakers to make it tougher for cities to an-nex. They estimated at least 150 people, most dressed in a “uniform” of red T-shirts, staked out lawmakers at their offi ces and legislative commit-tee meetings to tell them their thoughts.
Meanwhile, mayors, city councilmen and other offi cials from cities and towns across North Carolina visited the Gen-eral Assembly for their annual lobbying day. The cities want annexation power so they can control growth in their vicinities. Critics say the cities fre-quently use annexation power to increase their tax revenue.
The state House last
year approved and sent to the Senate numerous changes to the annexa-tion law, including an opportunity for residents of an area under consid-eration for annexation to vote on whether to join the city.
Sen. David Hoyle of Gaston County said he put a hold on the pro-posed annexation revi-sions. As chairman of the Senate Rules Committee, he can push or block legislation.
“It needs more work, and we don’t have time to do it,” Hoyle said.
He said neither the cities, which want no annexation changes, nor annexation foes like the bill that came out of the House.

RALEIGH
State businessman says he also donated through kidsBy GARY D. ROBERTSONAssociated Press Writer
RALEIGH — A busi-nessman responsible for $176,000 in illegal dona-tions to the campaigns of Gov. Beverly Perdue and two state senators has acknowledged fun-neling nearly double that to state and federal candidates since 1999, according to an affidavit released Friday.
In a sworn state-ment a week before his May 4 plea in state court, Atlan-tic Corp. owner Rusty Carter said no one ever instructed him to get around state campaign finance laws by funnel-ing money to his work-ers to make political contributions.
But the affidavit said his company gave $266,900 to federal and state candidates by pay-ing bonuses to workers with the understanding that a portion would go toward a politi-cal contribution or by reimbursing employees for donations. State law caps individual cam-paign contributions at $4,000 and businesses cannot contribute di-rectly or indirectly to a candidate.
In addition, he also said his three children gave $73,000 to candi-
dates, the Democratic Party and the Republi-can National Committee after he put personal funds in their checking accounts and directed them to dole it out.
“I have been told that with respect to making contributions to North Carolina political com-mittees, your wife, kids, dogs and cats can all make contributions,” he wrote in the signed affi-davit. But state law bars someone from giving a political contribution in another person’s name.
State elections direc-tor Gary Bartlett said the affidavit was released by elections board Chair-man Larry Leake after New Hanover County District Attorney Ben David gave him permis-sion.
Carter entered an Alford plea to three mis-demeanor campaign do-nation laws last month, and a judge fined him $5,000, gave him unsu-pervised probation and barred him from making political donations for two years. An Alford plea allows a defendant to acknowledge the state’s evidence could result in a conviction without a defendant having to admit any guilt.
Attorneys said in May that $64,000 in unlaw-ful donations went to Perdue’s campaign; $84,000 to the cam-paign of Senate leader Marc Basnight, D-Dare; and $28,000 went to the campaign of Sen. Julia Boseman, D-New
Hanover. The campaigns were not aware of the violations when they accepted the contribu-tions, according to the assistant prosecutor handling the case.
The affidavit also said Carter used corporate money to give $27,000 to former Gov. Mike Ea-sley’s campaign; $30,000 to Erskine Bowles’ unsuccessful 2002 and 2004 U.S. Senate bids; and $33,900 to President Bush’s 2004 re-election campaign.
It wasn’t immediately clear whether informa-tion about donations to federal races were forwarded to federal regulators. Tom Old, the assistant prosecu-tor, wasn’t in the office Friday and didn’t return a phone call.
Carter’s attorney, David Long, said in an e-mail statement that Carter and his lawyers “have cooperated fully in this investigation at every step along the way.”
Bob Hall with the campaign finance reform group Democ-racy North Carolina said most of the earlier dona-tions probably couldn’t be prosecuted because the statute of limitations have run out on them. He said the State Board of Elections should still assess civil fines against Carter for illegal dona-tions that are up to five years old to send a mes-sage that such activities won’t be tolerated.

Longtime legislator Bertha ‘B’ Holt dies
BURLINGTON (AP) — A longtime legislator known for her work to get North Carolina to repeal a law that said husbands could not rape their wives has died at the age of 93.
Bertha “B” Holt died Friday morning at her home. Jefferson Holt of Chapel Hill says his mother had suffered a stroke Sunday.
The Burlington lawmaker was in the state House of Representatives from 1975 to 1994. She led the effort to change the state’s marital rape law, which had said that husbands couldn’t be charged with raping their wives. The law was amended in the 1987-88 session and was taken off the books in 1993.
Other survivors include a daughter, Harriet Whitley of Burlington, and another son, Merrill, of San Fran-cisco. Her husband, Clary Holt, died in 2003.

The Fayetteville Observer reported Hope Mills Lake drained Thursday after offi cials began investigat-ing why it had turbid water, which was cloudy and may have soil in it.
The town had gotten permission last year to put water in the lake again after an 80-year-old earthen dam had collapsed in 2003. The town built a new dam and spillway before collecting water in the lake again.
Inspectors had released water Wednesday to inves-tigate the turbid water. The water picked up speed and the lake disappeared. Two holes were visible on the lake side of the dam.
Fence built to protect historic home
DANBURY (AP) — A 7-foot-high fence has been built around a historic home in North Carolina county in the hopes of protecting it from further vandalism.
The Winston-Salem Journal reported that the Stokes County Historical Society is paying for the fence to protect what’s known as the Rock House, which has survived more than 200 years of storms, fi res and neglect. More recently, vandals have sprayed graffi ti on the steps.
The house belonged to Col. John Martin, a militia leader during the Revolu-tionary War. He began build-ing the house in 1770.
The house sits in the foothills of the Sauratown Mountains and already is in a precarious state.
The roof and one wall are gone, and the inside is gutted.
The historical society took ownership of the house in 1975.
Camp Lejeune commander to retire at end of June
CAMP LEJEUNE (AP) — The commander of Camp Lejeune is retiring and will turn over command at the end of June.
Col. Richard P. Flatau Jr. will meet with reporters Friday for the last time to discuss his tenure as com-manding offi cer of the mas-sive Marine Corps base on the North Carolina coast.
Flatau will end his almost 30 year career June 25 when Col. Daniel J. Lecce takes command of Camp Lejeune. Lecce is the Staff Judge Advocate for the 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing.
Flatau joined the Marine Corps in 1983. He took command of Camp Lejeune in January 2008.
STATE BRIEFS
Jobless rate drops for third monthBy EMERY P. DALESIOAP Business Writer
RALEIGH (AP) — North Carolina’s unem-ployment rate improved in May for the third straight month, this time to 10.3 percent, but the boost came mostly from a gain in government hiring, the state Employ-ment Security Commis-sion said Friday.
The unemployment rate fell from 10.8 percent in April. The national unemployment rate also had fallen, from 9.9 percent in April to 9.7 percent in May.
North Carolina’s unemployment rate
had been as bad as 11.2 percent in February, the worst since the cur-rent calculation method started in 1976.
The number of people working increased by 14,722 and the number on the unemployment rolls decreased by almost 20,800 workers.
Though the jobless rate has been falling, gov-ernment was responsible for much of the improve-ment, adding 16,100 workers, while manufac-turing lost 2,900 jobs and leisure and hospitality services shed 2,700 posi-tions.
John Connaughton, an economic forecaster
at the University of North Carolina at Char-lotte, said the fact that government hiring was responsible for the state’s improved unemployment rate means the fi gure could readily rise again in a few months.
The lower unemploy-ment rate was “a result of the census workers being hired and they’ll be gone in three months,” Connaughton said. “The rest of the private-sector economy is negative and that’s very worrisome.”
Since the recession began in December 2007, North Carolina has lost 251,900 nonfarm jobs, with manufacturing los-
ing 103,400 of them.The state data showed
manufacturers are push-ing their employees to work longer hours. That increases the pressure for factories to speed hiring. But Connaughton said companies have learned to do more with fewer workers, so he doesn’t expect a broad increase in hiring soon.
“They’re not going to go through the painful process of adding work-ers with the prospect of laying them off in six months or a year,” he said. “They’re still not convinced that we’ve made a big turnaround yet.”
CHARLOTTE
16 topless dancers in face exposure chargesCHARLOTTE (AP)
— Authorities have ar-rested six women and were searching for 10 others as part of an in-vestigation of indecent exposure at strip clubs that one club owner said was a waste of law en-forcement resources.
The Charlotte Ob-server reported Friday that Alcohol Beverage Control officials said the topless dancers are charged with violating a state law that prohibits them from performing nude.
The arrests are part of a six-month undercover investigation into eight adult-entertainment
clubs in Charlotte. Most of the clubs involved are operated by M.A.L. entertainment, a com-pany owned by Char-lotte businessman David “Slim” Baucom.
“They know that they’re not allowed to expose themselves and they did,” said Michael Crowley of Mecklen-burg’s ABC commission. “You’re not allowed to remove your bottom.”
Crowley said the women removed all of their clothes during ta-ble dances on the main floor and in semi-private areas, roped off for cus-tomers who pay extra for special dances.
Agents said Baucom cooperated with au-thorities and provided the real names of some of his dancers.
Chris Fall, owner of the Paper Doll Lounge, said the investigation is a waste of taxpayer money, particularly in tight financial times. Authorities said an ABC agent and a Pineville police officer conducted the investigation.
“The government, they’re bad on money and they’re coming after us,” Fall said. “Paying (agents) to go to strip clubs ... and have a good time.”
The clubs could face
disciplinary action by the state ABC commis-sion, which controls licensing for businesses that sell alcohol.
Crowley compared the operation to other ABC stings, in which the commission sends minors into gas stations and grocery stores to try and buy alcohol and cigarettes.
“We want to make sure that these adult entertainment estab-lishments are following the law,” Crowley said. “That’s our job.”

Kagan’s e-mailsto go public as hearings approach
WASHINGTON (AP) — Ever wish you could comb through a public fi gure’s e-mail? Su-preme Court nominee Elena Kagan’s e-mails are about to go public as part of the Senate Judiciary Committee’s preparations for her confi rma-tion hearings in a little more than a week.
The William J. Clinton Presi-dential Library in Little Rock, Ark., is set Friday to release approximately 80,000 pages of e-mails — about 11,000 of them written by Kagan. It’s the fi nal installment of docu-ments related to her service as a domestic policy aide and White House counsel to former President Bill Clinton.
It’s the third week in a row the fi les will be made public on a Friday afternoon — the customary time in offi cial Washington for dribbling out unfavorable information or disclosures one hopes won’t draw too much attention.
Another roughly 80,000 pages of paper fi les already have been released, reveal-ing Kagan’s role in managing the scandals of the Clinton administration, her pragmatic streak dealing with complex issues such as tobacco regulation and her political in-stincts weighing in on issues such as abortion, gun control and drug sentencing.
Sen. Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., the minority leader, said Friday the papers that have emerged so far make it hard to believe that Kagan could be an impartial justice.
The Judiciary panel is scheduled to begin confi rma-tion hearings on Kagan on June 28.
Hartford mayor convicted of corruption resigns
HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) — A one-time gang leader who es-caped an impoverished child-hood to become Hartford’s fi rst Latino mayor announced Friday that he would step down after being convicted of fi ve corruption charges, including taking a bribe and attempted extortion.
“I have decided that it is not in the best interests of the city and my family for me to continue my duties as mayor during the appeal of my case,” he said in a written statement.
Perez, who had insisted on his innocence and vowed to clear his name, faces up to 60 years in prison, with each of the fi ve counts carrying a minimum of one year in jail. The six-person Hartford Superior Court jury acquitted him of one count of tamper-ing with evidence. Sentencing is scheduled for Sept. 10.
Calls for Perez’s resigna-tion came shortly after he was convicted of receiving a bribe, attempted fi rst-degree larceny by extortion, acces-sory to evidence tampering and two conspiracy counts — all felonies. The jury delivered the verdicts after a six-week trial.
Mass. man arraigned in 4 relatives’ slayings
WOBURN, Mass. (AP) — A man accused of killing his wife, two children and mother-in-law in their subur-ban Boston home pleaded not guilty Friday as his lawyer said he may use an insanity
defense.Thomas Mortimer IV, who
was brought him into Woburn District Court wearing a bul-letproof vest, was ordered held without bail.
Not-guilty pleas to four charges of fi rst-degree murder were entered for Mor-timer during his arraignment Friday morning.
Prosecutors released no new details during the brief proceeding.
Ex-offi cer used intimidation before train shooting
LOS ANGELES (AP) — A former Bay Area transit police offi cer testifi ed Friday he used intimidation and profan-ity to try and corral a group of young men, one of whom was shot and killed by a fellow of-fi cer last year on an Oakland train platform.
Tony Pirone said that when he responded to a call about a fi ght at a Bay Area Rapid Transit station on New Year’s Day 2009 he had pulled out his Taser stun gun as he detained three of the men against a concrete wall while two oth-ers ran back on a crowded train.
“Why did you do that?” asked Deputy District Attor-ney Dave Stein.
“Intimidation,” said Pirone, who was described by some witnesses as being aggres-sive and hostile toward the group prior to the shooting.
“To get compliance.”Because his actions were
captured on videos taken by bystanders, Pirone will likely be the most polarizing wit-ness at the trial of Johannes Mehserle, who pleaded not guilty to murder for the shooting death of Oscar Grant, 22.

Obama tells G-20 nations to seal economic recovery
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama is appealing to the world’s major econo-mies not to waver in their efforts to support a sustained rebound from the near collapse of the global economic system in the fall of 2008.
“We must act together to strengthen the recov-ery,” Obama said in his letter to other leaders of the Group of 20 major industrial countries, writ-ten in advance of next week’s summit meeting in Toronto.
But Obama’s appeal for unity underscored a number of divisions that have developed between the major powers. Many European nations, rattled by the debt crisis that had engulfed Greece, have started to trim their own budget defi cits while China has rejected calls by the United States to allow its currency to rise in value as a way to boost sales of American and other foreign products in China.
Obama referred in an oblique way to those disagreements in the let-ter, avoiding mentioning other countries by name.
“Our highest priority in Toronto must be to safeguard and strengthen the recovery,” he said in the letter, which the White House released on Friday. “We worked exceptionally hard to restore growth; we can-not let it falter or lose strength now.”
Obama called on the other nations to “reaffi rm our unity of purpose to provide the policy sup-port necessary to keep economic growth strong.”
The president noted that “signifi cant weak-nesses” linger among the major and developing economic powers. He
told his summit partners “it is essential that we have a self-sustaining recovery that creates the good jobs that our people need.” The White House released a copy of the let-ter on Friday.
In the letter, Obama said that the June 25-27 summit should also focus on efforts to stabilize public defi cits in the “me-dium term,” a reference to the administration’s position that govern-ments need to run huge defi cits currently to pro-vide the stimulus needed to ensure a sustained recovery but then move in future years to defi cit reduction efforts.
But several European nations including Ger-many, France and Britain are already moving to attack high defi cits in an effort to calm global fi nancial markets which have stumbled in recent weeks over concerns that Greece or other highly indebted nations could default on their loans.
Obama is having a tough time making the argument for increased defi cit spending at home as well. The Senate has blocked a scaled-down jobs bill with critics com-plaining that the $120 billion pricetag is still too
high.In his letter to the
G-20, Obama said: “I am committed to the resto-ration of fi scal sustain-ability in the United States and believe that all G-20 countries should put in place credible and growth-friendly plans to restore sustainable public fi nances.”
“But it is critical that the timing and pace of consolidation in each economy suit the needs of the global economy, the momentum of private sector demand and na-tional circumstances.”
The recovery from recession in the United States has been erratic and uneven.
In his letter, Obama also called on his G-20 partners to promote “bal-anced global demand” and said he remained concerned about the “continued heavy reli-ance on exports by some countries with already large external surpluses.”
While not mention-ing China by name, that comment was an obvious reference China’s trade surpluses and contin-ued resistance to U.S. demands that it allow its currency, called the renminbi, to rise in value against the dollar.

Ted Koppel’s son died from combo of drugs, alcohol
NEW YORK (AP) — The son of former ABC News anchor Ted Koppel, who was found dead in a stranger’s apartment after a day of bar-hopping, died from a lethal combination of drugs and alcohol, the medical examiner’s offi ce said Friday.
Andrew Koppel’s May 31 death was ruled an ac-cident. He died from acute intoxication due to the combined effects of alco-hol; heroin; cocaine; diaz-epam, the generic form of the painkiller Valium; and Levamisole, a drug used to cut other drugs, said Ellen Borakove, a spokes-woman for the city medical examiner’s offi ce.
The 40-year-old Koppel had been out most of May 30 drinking with Russell Wimberly, a man he met at a Manhattan bar that day. He was eventually taken up to an apartment to sleep it off, said Belinda Caban, who lives in the apartment and said she didn’t know Koppel.
Caban told The Associ-ated Press earlier this month that she and Wim-berly spent the next few hours talking, and he went in to check on Koppel and said he was snoring. After six hours, she told Wimberly it was time to go and for him to take Koppel home. She said when they went to the bedroom to rouse Koppel, he wasn’t moving, so they called 911. She said paramed-ics estimated Koppel had been dead about four hours.
Company, estate to help cover LA Jackson memorial
LOS ANGELES (AP) — The estate of Michael Jackson and entertain-ment company AEG agreed to contribute $1.3 million to help cover public costs related to the pop star’s memorial service last year at Staples Center, offi cials said.
AEG President Timothy J. Leiweke and Mayor Anto-nio Villaraigosa said Friday in a joint statement that $1 million will be provided to the city’s general fund, and the rest of the money will go to the Los Ange-les Police Foundation for crime-fi ghting equipment.
“It was important to us that all parties agreed that this was not an obligation but a choice we believed was important to make at a time when thousands of city employees are being reduced,” Leiweke said in the release.
Jim Bates, who handles media inquiries for the Jackson estate, said he would not comment beyond the release from AEG.
Critics took aim at the city for spending $3.2 million to support the memorial service last July 7 at AEG’s Nokia Theater and Staples Center. Police overtime alone amounted to $2 million after they set up an elaborate security zone around the memorial site.
Sarah McLachlan returns with new CD, Lilith Tour
LOS ANGELES (AP) — At long last, there’s an all-new studio album from Sarah McLachlan. “Laws of Illusion” — her fi rst in seven years — was released this month.
What took so long?“I luxuriously get to
pick and choose how much I want to work and how much I want to be mom,” McLachlan said. “I just don’t want to miss any of it. So, I made a choice to just kind of put my career, not on hold, but just pick and choose what I do and be a mom for the most part. I really love having that time with them.”
The album’s fi rst single is an upbeat pop confec-tion, “Loving You is Easy.”
“It’s light and fun and sort of a departure for me from a lot of my older ma-terial,” McLachlan noted. “I really wanted to show that there was growth and change in me.”
In that seven-year period, McLachlan, 42, gave birth to a second daughter, Taja Summer (joining older sis-ter India Ann Sushil), and divorced husband Ashwin Sood — life changes that helped shape the new album’s content.

Five gaming trends from E3 showBy DERRIK J. LANGAP Entertainment Writer
LOS ANGELES (AP) — With a new 3-D gadget, motion controllers and a buffet of never-before-seen gaming goodness, this week’s Electronic Entertainment Expo was a feast for the eyes — and hands — of 45,600 folks from the video game industry. Here are the trends that emerged from the 2010 show.
POETRY IN MOTIONBy the end of the year,
every major console is slated to have some from of gesture recognition. The PlayStation Move system, which employs a wand-shaped controller and camera to precisely detect players’ movements, will give the PlayStation 3 the ability to be more like Nintendo’s Wii — except with high-defi nition graphics and a more mature library of games.
Microsoft is further pushing (and bending, twisting and jumping over) the envelope with the Xbox 360’s controller-free Kinect system. The gizmo detects gamers’ bodies, including their skeletal systems, to do such things as teach choreography in “Dance Central,” administer workouts in “Your Shape: Fitness Evolved” and deploy adorable virtual pets in “Kinectimals.”
GOING FORWARDThe future is here, judging by
the plethora of hereafter-set fi rst-and-third-person shooters showcased at E3. “Fallout: New Vegas” and “Rage” took decidedly post-apocalyptic routes while “Red Faction: Armageddon” and “Dead Space 2” shot for interstel-lar territories. “Homefront,” however, imagines a not-too-distant future in which North Korea invades the U.S.
In one of the show’s most surprising moments, space combat was introduced for intergalactic prequel “Halo: Reach,” which also includes invisibility.
OLD IS NEW AGAINSeveral beloved franchises
were awakened from a deep slumber at E3. Sony’s press conference reached a climax when a creepy ice cream truck driven by freaky clowns omi-nously drove onto the stage at
the Shrine Auditorium to unveil that a new installment of the popular car-combat series “Twisted Metal” was coming to the PlayStation 3 platform for the fi rst time.
Nintendo pushed the nostalgia factor higher by digging deep into its catalog for the return of many classic characters ready for the 21st century: “Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword” enhanced for Wii MotionPlus, “Kirby’s Epic Yarn” stitched with a new art style, “Donkey Kong Country Returns” injected with new en-ergy and “Kid Icarus: Uprising” presented fully in 3-D.
GROUP DYNAMICSDevelopers showed off in-
novative ways to battle online with new multiplayer modes. The most monstrously enthralling was the new beast mode for “Gears of War 3,” which tasks players to take down human forces for the
fi rst time as various bad-dies from the Locust Horde, including explosive Tickers, behemoth Berserkers and something resembling a giant centipede.
Other notable multiplayer modes showcased at E3 included the kill-or-be-killed wanted mode from stealthy sequel “Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood,” breakneck faction mode from car crusher “Twisted Metal” and sur-realistic trail blazer mode from “Driver: San Francisco,” which allows racers to use the game’s new shift ability to leap from vehicle to vehicle.
UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL
Sony’s plans for 3-D came into sharper focus as the electronics empire displayed PlayStation 3 titles, such as “Eye Pet,” “Killzone 3,” “Gran Turismo 5” and “Motor Storm: Apocalypse,” in stereoscopic 3-D. The effect — sometimes as impressive as “Avatar,” other times as underwhelm-ing as “Clash of the Titans” — required a 3-D television and spectacles.
Nintendo, on the other hand, dominated this year’s E3 with the unveiling of the 3DS, the 3-D handheld console that doesn’t require glasses. At-tendees waited in a line that snaked all around Nintendo’s booth to get their eyes on the surprisingly crisp effect in demonstrations of such games as “Nintendogs and Cats” and “Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater 3D.”

GULF OIL SPILL
Son kills father who translated for US in Iraq
BAGHDAD (AP) — An al-Qaida-linked insurgent shot and killed his own father as he slept in his bed Friday for refusing to quit his job as an Iraqi interpreter for the U.S. military, police said, a rare deadly attack on a close family member over allegations of collaborating with the enemy.
The attack happened on a particularly bloody day in Iraq, with at least 27 people killed nationwide in bombings and ambushes largely targeting the houses of government offi cials, Iraqi security forces and those seen as allied with them.
Hameed al-Daraji, 50, worked as a contractor and translator for the U.S. mili-tary for seven years since shortly after the U.S.-led invasion that toppled Sad-dam Hussein in 2003.
He was shot in the chest about 3 a.m. while sleeping in his house in Samarra, a former insurgent stronghold 60 miles (95 kilometers) north of Baghdad, police Lt. Emad Muhsin said.
Authorities arrested the son and his cousin, saying the young men apparently were trying to prove their loyalty after rejoining the insurgency. Police were also looking for another son who allegedly took part in the attack.
Ethnic Uzbeks in squalid camps fear returning home
VLKSM, Kyrgyzstan (AP) — Ethnic Uzbeks shelter-ing in squalid tent camps say they don’t have enough food or clean water but are terrifi ed of going back to live alongside those they hold responsible for days of shootings, arson and sexual assaults.
That air of suspicion was rife Friday among the hun-dreds of refugees crowded into gray canvas tents on a patch of arid scrub in this Kyrgyz village near the border with Uzbekistan.
“Where can we go now? Our belief in the future is dead,” said Mamlyakat Akramova, who lived in the center of Osh, Kyrgyzstan’s second-largest city and the epicenter of the violence that broke out last week.
Entire Uzbek neighbor-hoods of southern Kyrgyz-stan have been reduced to scorched ruins by rampag-ing mobs of ethnic Kyrgyz who forced nearly half of the region’s roughly 800,000 Uzbeks to fl ee for their lives.
The U.N. says as many as 1 million people will need aid, and Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon issued an ap-peal Friday for $71 million.
Little hope for trapped Colombian miners
AMAGA, Colombia (AP) — Authorities held out little hope Friday for the dozens of workers trapped under-ground after an explosion ripped through a coal mine, killing at least 18 during a shift change.
At least 50 workers remained unaccounted for a day and a half after the explosion and rescue efforts were moving slowly, impeded by the presence of dangerous gases, offi cials said.
Rescue workers also lacked oxygen tanks.
Authorities believe a meth-ane gas buildup caused Wednesday night’s explo-sion.
More than 3,000 resi-dents of Amaga, about half the town, attended a funeral service at a local church Friday for nine of the 18 whose bodies were pulled from the San Fernando mine.
WORLD BRIEFS
BP CEO removed from oversightBy RAY HENRYAssociated Press Writers
NEW ORLEANS — BP removed Chief Executive Tony Hayward from day-to-day oversight of the Gulf oil spill crisis a day after he was pummeled by lawmak-ers in an appearance on Capitol Hill, the company’s chairman said Friday.
Carl-Henric Svanberg told Britain’s Sky News television that Hayward “is now handing over the operations, the daily operations to (BP Manag-ing Director) Bob Dudley,” overshadowing news that after many setbacks BP was fi nally making real progress in siponing and burning off oil from the underwater gusher.
Coast Guard Adm. Thad Allen announced earlier Friday that a newly expanded containment system is capturing or in-cinerating more than 1 mil-lion gallons of oil daily, the fi rst time it has approached its peak capacity. And the system will soon grow. By late June, the oil giant hopes it can keep nearly 90 percent of the fl ow from hitting the ocean.
Allen also said the Coast Guard is ramping up efforts to capture the crude closer to shore with the help of private boats. As of Friday morning, between 65 million and 121.6 million gallons of oil have gushed into the Gulf of Mexico, based on federal daily fl ow rate estimates.
The optimistic news about the containment plan was tempered by Hayward’s removal, which follows a June 4 an-nouncement by BP that Dudley, and American oil executive, would lead the long-term response to the
oil spill once the leak had been stopped. Svanberg’s statement appeared to accelerate that timeline, as millions of gallons of crude continue to gush into the Gulf.
A BP spokesman in Houston, Tristan Vanhe-gan, says the “board still has confi dence in Tony.”
The company also continues to struggle to compensate Gulf Coast residents and business owners who have been economically devastated by the spill. On Friday, the House Judiciary Commit-tee said data it has collect-ed shows that BP has paid less than 12 percent of the claims submitted, by dollar value. BP, however, said the number was higher.
The committee said in a statement that data it collected showed only $71 million out of an esti-mated $600 million had been paid as of Tuesday. In addition, the panel said that BP didn’t make any payments in the fi rst two weeks following the April
20 explosion and oil spill, and that it hasn’t made a single payment for bodily injury or diminished home property value.
BP spokesman Scott Dean said in an e-mail that the company had paid out $95 million as of Friday, and it had written about 30,000 checks to settle about half of the 63,000 claims it has received.
Dean said it was stream-lining its process for deal-ing with large commercial claims.
Michigan Democratic Rep. John Conyers said he’s concerned that BP “is stiff-ing too many victims and shortchanging others.”
The chief of the new independent offi ce to pay claims said a plan to handle the remaining dam-age claims will be in place in 30 to 45 days. Kenneth Feinberg, who’s overseeing the Independent Claims Facility, said he also hopes to have a program going forward that would provide payment within 30 to 60 days of someone submit-
ting a new claim.“The challenge here
is going to be to evaluate quickly, eligible claims, legitimate claims and get them paid,” said Feinberg, who was chosen by Presi-dent Barack Obama and BP for the role.
Feinberg, who was in Mississippi Friday to meet with Gov. Haley Barbour, reiterated that his of-fi ce isn’t a government program. The lawyer, who oversaw payouts to victims of the Sept. 11 at-tacks, said he will be paid by BP but didn’t say how much.
Connie Bartenbach, owner of Rental Resources in Ocean Springs, Miss., said Friday that she’s been unable to get her claims processed with BP. Her cancellation rates last month were six times higher than normal, and business is getting worse.
“They have somehow lost me in their system. I fi led with them on May 18,” she said. “I should have gotten a call back long before now.”
Earlier in the day, the Coast Guard signaled a shift in strategy to fi ght the oil, saying it was ramping up efforts to capture the crude closer to shore.
The Coast Guard’s Allen said an estimated 2,000 private boats in the so-called “vessels of opportu-nity” program will be more closely linked through a tighter command and control structure to direct them to locations less than 50 miles offshore to skim the oil. Allen, the point man for the federal response to the spill, previ-ously had said surface con-tainment efforts would be concentrated much farther offshore.

SERBIA BEATS 10-MAN GERMANY IN GROUP D
PORT ELIZABETH, South Africa (AP) — Milan Jovanovic scored one minute after Germany strik-er Miroslav Klose was ejected Friday, giving Serbia a 1-0 upset win over the three-time World Cup champions.
Serbia goalkeeper Vladi-mir Stojkovic stopped Lukas Podolski’s penalty kick for Ger-many in the 60th minute, after Nemanja Vidic got a yellow card for a hand ball.
Spanish referee Alberto Undiano handed out nine yellow cards, the most so far in any game at this year’s tournament.
Germany played a man down from the 37th minute, when Klose was ejected for getting a second yellow card. Jovanovic scored a minute later to give Serbia its first World Cup win as an independent nation.
Both teams now have three points after two games in Group D.
ALGERIA HOLDS ENGLAND TO A 0-0 DRAW
CAPE TOWN, South Africa (AP) — Algeria held England to a 0-0 draw at the World Cup on Friday, leaving Group C wide open headed into the final game of first-round play.
With Wayne Rooney held without a goal for the seventh straight match, England lacked a scoring touch against an oppo-nent fighting to avoid becoming the first nation eliminated from the tournament.
England hasn’t scored since the fourth minute of its opening match against the United States, also a draw. Algeria hasn’t scored at all.
After Friday’s games, Slovenia had four points to lead Group C, while England and the United States both had two. Algeria had one.

MANAGER: IVERSON WANTS TO PLAY AGAIN
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Allen Iverson plans to return to the NBA next season.
Gary Moore, Iverson’s per-sonal manager, says Iverson is working out and “absolutely” will try and play next season. Iverson returned to the Phila-delphia 76ers in December and took a leave of absence in March because of family issues.
Moore says Iverson’s ill daughter is now “doing very well.”
Iverson also is filming a documentary on his life called “Deconstructing Allen Iverson.”
Iverson was the No. 1 overall pick in the 1996 draft and spent his first 10 seasons in Philadelphia. He won the MVP in 2001 when he led the Sixers to the finals.
Walker inducted into Hall of FameBy RYAN [email protected]
SANFORD — John Walker has seen everything there is to see in wrestling.
He’s been a wrestling coach, a wres-tling official, a booking agent
Now he can add something else to his impressive 40-plus year resume in the sport of wrestling.
Hall of Famer. Walker was recently inducted into
the North Carolina Chapter of the National Wrestling Hall of Fame in Chapel Hill and received the Lifetime of Service to Wrestling award for his dedication and commitment to the sport.
“When you start something like I did, you kind of have no idea where the road will take you,” said Walker, who coached the Sanford Central and Lee County Yellow Jackets from 1967-79. “My name’s been submitted
for the last three years and this year they finally decided to let me go in. It’s quite an honor and I’m very pleased to have even been nominated.”
And at 74 years old, he’s still going strong.
Walker is still actively involved in wrestling working as a booking agent for the past 13 years. As a booking agent, Walker is in charge of assigning officials to 28 different high schools, 21 middle schools and one college in Lee, Cumberland and Harnett Counties.
After a brief two-year stint as the head wrestling coach at Hoke County, Walker moved to Sanford in 1967 to be the new wrestling coach of the Yellow Jackets and to work as an assistant un-der legendary football coach Paul Gay.

Team USA rallies from two goals down to tie with SloveniaBy RONALD BLUMAP Sports Writer
JOHANNESBURG — Maurice Edu kicked the ball into the net. American players jumped around wildly, thinking they had capped a historic comeback, turning a two-goal, first-half deficit into a 3-2 victory over Slovenia in the World Cup.
“Then I heard the whistle,” Edu saidReferee Koman Coulibaly of Mali had
called it off.Over and over, American players
asked, “Why?”In English. Then in French.“He just ignored us,” Landon Dono-
van said. “Or he didn’t understand.”Perhaps Coulibaly, working his first
World Cup game, will never explain himself. By the rules, he doesn’t have to speak to the media on game days, and his next availability isn’t until Monday. Perhaps it will remain one of those unsolved soccer mysteries.
What’s known for now is this: Dono-van and Michael Bradley scored second-half goals that did count, and U.S. hopes to reach the second round remained alive with a 2-2 tie Friday night.
And for one moment, Edu felt “pure excitement.”

Mickelson figures out Pebble and moves into 2nd placeBy EDDIE PELLSAP National Writer
PEBBLE BEACH, Calif. — The beachgoers spelled it out on the sand below: “Go Phil!”
And did he ever.In search of the second leg of the
2010 Grand Slam, Phil Mickelson shot a 4-under 31 on the front nine at Pebble Beach on Friday to move within two shots of the lead in the second round of the U.S. Open.
The putter that confounded him during a first-round 75 came alive in this one. He strung together birdies on five of seven holes on the front,
capping it with a 15-footer on 8, before giving one stroke back with a bogey on No. 9.
He added another birdie on No. 11, saved par from the rough on 15, and on a day when nobody was taking charge, the run vaulted Mickelson up the leaderboard, tied for second behind leader Graeme McDowell with two holes left.
The U.S. Open record for nine holes is 29, last shot by Vijay Singh in 2003. Mickelson had 30 in reach but couldn’t save par after a drive into the rough on No. 9. Still, his front nine put him on pace to shoot the best score of the tournament
so far.McDowell and Ernie Els each
shot 68 in morning action Friday. Els, in search of his third U.S. Open title, ended up at 1-under 141, two shots out of the lead and tied with Dustin Johnson and Ryo Ishikawa.
Trying to break through after a record five second-place finishes at the U.S. Open, Mickelson attacked the easiest holes on the course on a day that was made for scoring, even if very few could take advantage.
Mickelson showed what a special shotmaker he can be on a front

Woods in middle of pack at Pebble
PEBBLE BEACH, Calif. (AP) — Tiger Woods is talking a better game than he’s playing.
In what might be the softest conditions the U.S. Open will get all week — nine players broke par from the early starters — Woods man-aged a 1-over 72.
It only took him two holes to make his first birdie of the U.S. Open. He made only two more the rest of the round and wound up seven shots behind Graeme McDow-ell.
He made it sound much closer.
“I’m right there,” Woods said. “As we know, the U.S. Open is only go-ing to get tougher as the weekend goes.”
Trouble is, it’s playing plenty tough already for the world’s No. 1 player.

Hendrick has no news on Kahne’s futureSONOMA, Calif. (AP)
— Rick Hendrick dismissed a report that Kasey Kahne will drive for Phoenix Rac-ing next season, the gap year before he moves into Hendrick Motorsports’ No. 5 car.
But where Hendrick plans to put Kahne isn’t figured out, either.
“No new news there,” Hendrick said Friday at Infineon Raceway.
Kahne signed with Hen-drick Motorsports in April to drive the No. 5 Chevrolet in 2012, after current driver Mark Martin’s contract expires. The deal called for Hendrick to find a place for Kahne next season while he
waits for his seat to open.SI.com reported last
week that Hendrick was working on a deal with James Finch to put Kahne in the No. 09 car for 2011. Finch’s Phoenix Racing leans on Hendrick Motor-sports for equipment, and last year used Brad Kesel-owski in several races when
Keselowski was a Hendrick developmental driver.
But Hendrick said he’s got nothing in the works with Finch.
“I don’t know where that came from,” Hendrick said. “James Finch is a good friend and a good customer of our engine shop and I don’t know how that got started.
“I’ve had a lot more options than I thought I would and a lot of it is just waiting for the right time and the right deal and ... I haven’t been in a hurry.”

Lakers to pay $2 million for NBA victory parade
LOS ANGELES (AP) — The Los Angeles Lakers say they’ll pay for Monday’s NBA championship victory celebration, a more modest event than in past years.
Lakers spokesman John Black said Friday the team anticipates spending around $2 million, including police overtime and other city services.
The Lakers plan to cel-ebrate Thursday’s victory over the Boston Celtics with a parade from Staples Center to the University of Southern California campus. The team estimates that 500,000 to 2 million people may line the two-mile route.
Panel decides against reopening McNair case
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — A grand jury says there should not be a new inves-tigation into the murder-sui-cide of ex-NFL player Steve McNair and his girlfriend.
The 36-year-old quarter-back who spent most of his career with the Ten-nessee Titans was shot to death July 4, 2009, by his mistress, 20-year-old Sahel Kazemi, who then killed herself.
Vincent Hill, a former
Nashville police officer, has said there should be a new investigation and requested that a three-member team from the Davidson County grand jury review his com-plaint.
Obama sees Strasburg set strikeout record
WASHINGTON (AP) — With President Barack Obama watching, Washington Na-tionals sensation Stephen Strasburg has set a record for most strikeouts by a pitcher in his first three major league starts.
The 21-year-old right-hander had nine strikeouts through five innings Friday night against the Chicago White Sox.
That gave Strasburg 31 strikeouts, beating the record of 29 set by the Houston Astros’ J.R. Rich-ard in his first three starts in 1971.
The 30th strikeout came on a 92 mph changeup to Alexei Ramirez. Then Stras-burg got Gordon Beckham — also on a 92 mph chan-geup. Both batters went down swinging.
Strasburg allowed a run in the first inning, but had retired 15 batters in a row through five innings.
Strasburg went 2-0 with 22 strikeouts in his first two starts.
SPORTS BRIEFS
nine that will be remem-bered for a long time if he wins his fifth major this weekend.
Playing from a fairway bunker on No. 3, Mickel-son hit the green and made the ball spin backward to 6 feet, then made the putt for a birdie. On Nos. 4, 6 and 8, he hit shots that left him with uphill putts and made them all. With two holes remaining, he needed one more birdie to match the 65 that Woods carded in the first round of his record-setting 2000 U.S. Open — the best score ever at a U.S. Open at Pebble Beach.
Early cloud cover on the Monterey Peninsula gave way to partly cloudy skies with light winds and temperatures in the high 50s. Greens that Tiger Woods called “awful” after a sunny, dry round on Thursday, appeared to be running more true.
Not that it helped Woods much.
Opening on the back nine, he chipped in on No. 11 for his first birdie of the tournament, but if things were looking up, it was only for a moment. He bogeyed both the par-3s on the back, missed an 8-foot putt for birdie on No. 18, blocked a tee shot into a bunker on No. 2 and hooked one into the fescue on No. 3.
It added up to a 1-over 72 and a slide down the leaderboard — seven shots behind McDowell. Woods, of course, feels he’s still got a chance.
“I just need to keep progressing and keep mov-ing my way up the board,” he said. “It’s a long haul. The U.S. Open is not going to get easier as the week goes on, especially on the weekend.”
Anything is possible with Woods, but clearly this is not the same player who won here by a record 15 shots in 2000. Back then, it was his name, not Mickelson’s, carved into the sand down below. He and Mickelson came into this U.S. Open as co-favor-ites, and in the first round, neither managed a birdie.
Both broke that streak Friday, but where Mick-elson kept gathering momentum, Woods kept struggling.
After opening the tournament by hitting 10 straight greens in regula-tion, he got wild. Since that start, he has gone 13 for 26, and though the greens
were better during a morn-ing round Friday than they were Thursday afternoon, he missed a series of mak-able putts, including the one on 18 and a 12-footer on 6 that slid by.
Els tied for second in 2000 — the ‘B’ flight at the U.S. Open — but hasn’t fin-ished any higher than fifth
at the Open since then. He’s playing some of his best golf in years in 2010, though, winning twice and now in serious contention at Pebble, which he said resembled “links golf on steroids.”
Jackson’s decision weighs on Lakers’ 3-peat hopes
LOS ANGELES (AP) — The two-time NBA champion Los Angeles Lakers’ most important free agent this summer is a 64-year-old former forward with two bad knees, two artificial hips and two more cham-pionships than any coach in NBA history.
When Phil Jackson reveals his plans for the future next week, pre-sumably some time after the Lakers’ parade down Figueroa Street on Monday, the 16-time champions can get to work on the smaller details of their upcoming run at a threepeat.
Amid the confetti and cacophony of their 83-79 victory over the Boston Celtics in Game 7 of the NBA finals on Thursday night, many Lakers took a moment to consider their charmed lives. They all seem to real-ize they’re lucky to come together around Kobe Bryant, whose sublime talent is at the center of their back-to-back titles.
“It’s just like I’m living in a differ-ent dimension,” said Pau Gasol, who labored in mediocrity in Memphis until a 2008 trade to Los Angeles led him to three straight NBA finals and two titles. “If I could get a genie and ask for a wish, this would be my wish, as far as my basketball life and career. ... It’s pretty unbelievable, the contrast from some situations. That’s why you’ve got to be so appreciative of life and the present.”
The Lakers’ 16th championship was sweeter for its difficulty. Bryant called it the toughest playoff stretch of his career, with the Celtics stretch-ing Los Angeles to the limit in a ferocious, defense-dominated series.
And even before he had changed out of his uniform after laboring through a 6-for-24 shooting perfor-mance in the finale, Bryant made it clear he wants Jackson to stay for at least another year.
“I’ve been openly blunt about how much I want him back,” Bryant said.
While he knows some roster turnover is inevitable, Bryant also believes the Lakers have a core capable of contending for another
title, even if some combination of LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, Chris Bosh, Joe Johnson and other free agents gets together to form that long-anticipated, Justice League-style superteam.
Los Angeles has its own collection of heroes who realize they’ve got a good thing going at home.
“This is a great team dynamic we have here,” Bryant said. “We believe in each other, and we trust each other, and Phil is a big part of that.”

started in this area because they wanted something for their football players to do during the winter,” said Walker. “How we did it was, it would be our center ver-sus your center, our guard versus your guard and our linebacker versus your linebacker.
“That worked well until we went to Aberdeen (now Pinecrest) and they told us to weigh-in. They asked if we had a 98 pounder and we didn’t and they got five points. The sport got bigger and took off from there.”
As the wrestling coach of the Yellow Jackets, Walker led the Yellow Jackets to several conference cham-pionships and won the regional three times.
In 13 seasons as a head coach, Walker had just two losing seasons, one of which came at Hoke County, and compiled a
record of 117-50. During his time with the Yellow Jack-ets, Walker coached James Speed, who finished second in the state in individual wrestling.
Walker says he remem-bers all of his Yellow Jacket teams for their competi-tiveness.
“We didn’t wrestle as much as they do now,” said Walker. “Back then, we wrestled maybe 28-29 times a year. I remember all of our teams being very competitive every year. We were very competitive.”
Since 1962, Walker has also served as an ath-letic official. He’s worked as a baseball and softball umpire. He still does fast-pitch softball and still works some middle school baseball.
Walker, who also served as a football official for about 20 years, really en-joyed his time as a wres-tling referee, which he also started doing in 1962.
As a wrestling official, Walker has worked about
12 state championships, three dual team champi-onships, the 1979 NAIA national championship and five NCAA Division-II championships in Omaha, South Dakota, North Da-kota, Northern Colorado and Pennsylvania.
“I’ve done a lot high school stuff and a lot of college stuff,” said Walker. “I’ve also worked some ACC stuff and officiated matches at schools like Appalachian State and The Citadel. It’s been a fun experience.”
Walker says he has no intentions of retiring from wrestling just yet. As long as he is healthy, he plans on continuing to do whatever he can in the sport.
“As long as my health is fine and I am still thinking straight, I plan to keep do-ing it,” said Walker. “I plan on continuing to do book-ing and holding wrestling clinics in the area. I still feel like I have something to contribute to the sport and until I don’t, I’m going to continue doing it.”

It did not last.Now it comes down
to Wednesday’s match against Algeria.
“My guess is there’s not many teams in this tournament that could have done what we did and arguably won the game. And that is what the American spirit is about,” Donovan said. “And I’m sure people back home are proud of that.”
Slovenia (1-0-1) leads Group C with four points and would have quali-fied for the second round with a win. The U.S. and
England (both 0-0-2) are tied for second with two points each following England’s 0-0 draw with Algeria (0-0-1).
The top two teams in the group advance, so the U.S. would make the second round with a victory against Algeria, The Americans also could advance if they tie the Algerians while England draws Slovenia, provided the U.S. maintains its advantage in goals scored over the English, currently 3-1.
“We can still get through,” goalkeeper Tim Howard said. “Being down 2-0 in a game, I’ve played long enough to feel very lucky and fortunate to
come out of it still in the World Cup.”
It was the second time in a month that an official’s call had thwarted American sports his-tory. Just a few weeks ago umpire Jim Joyce’s deci-sion cost Detroit pitcher Armando Galarraga a perfect game. Different sports, yes, but enormous consequences in both cases.
This would have meant so much more than one World Cup match, more than the largest country in the tournament with 300 million people tying the smallest with 2 million.
“I’m a little gutted to be honest,” Donovan said. “I don’t know how they stole

DEAR ABBY: My father is a successful attorney. He appears to be the ideal father because he’s charming, has a sense of humor and is intelligent.
He’s a different person in private. Since I was 12, he has verbally and emotionally abused me, sometimes hitting me, throw-ing me down, threatening to evict or kill me. Abby, I was not a bad child. I never experimented with drugs or alcohol and spent little time with friends. I’m currently in college and maintain a 4.0 GPA.
My family and I think my fa-ther is mentally ill. He’s extremely unstable and has a family history of these issues, including suicide. He has started stockpiling his de-ceased father’s belongings, speaks to the dog as if it were a human be-ing, and obsessively checks things in the house like locks, etc. He has extreme anger issues and other bizarre behaviors.
It’s clear Dad has a problem, but because it has not affected him at work he sees no reason to get help. The one time I brought it up it only enraged him. He believes he is the ruler of the house, in control of everything, but it’s obvious he’s losing control.
We know we can’t force him to get help, but what can I do to get Dad to see a psychiatrist or to improve the situation? Mom has given up, and I’m afraid for my little sister. She’s in high school and still lives at home.
— BIG SIS IN NEW MEXICO
DEAR BIG SIS: Your mother should have insisted your father get help when he started abusing you. Because she didn’t, you should have told a teacher or counselor at school because they are mandated to report it. If your father abuses your sister, that’s what she must do.
While many people mistakenly think that domestic abuse hap-pens only in low-income families, family violence occurs among people on all social and economic levels. Because you fear for your sister’s safety, contact the National Domestic Violence Hotline at (800) 799-7233. The people there can suggest help for your mother and sister, but your father cannot be “helped” unless he’s willing to fi nally admit he needs it.

DEAR ABBY: I just returned from a “Manicure/Pedicure Party” for a friend who is being married. The invitation I received stated, “Please join us for a mani-cure and pedicure in honor of the bride-to-be.”
I was home about 10 minutes when I received a phone call from one of my hostesses. She told me that I had left without paying for my manicure and pedicure! I was fl oored. I told her I had forgotten, but the fact is, I had assumed since the invitation
stated “Please join us” that the hostesses were paying.
Did I misinterpret the invita-tion? Or do people now “host” par-ties where they expect the guests to pay their own way? I am em-barrassed and confused. Should I have asked the salon worker or the hostesses who was paying the bill?
— CONFUSED IN COWTOWN
DEAR CONFUSED: Obviously you did misinterpret the invita-tion, which should have clearly mentioned that the event was “no host” and the guests would be required to pay for their own “salon services.” I see no reason why you should have assumed that you’d be asked to pay, and your confusion is understandable. But please don’t feel embarrassed. The folks who should feel embarrassed are the “hostesses.”

Happy Birthday: You may be surprised by the changes around you this year. The only way to be a part of future trends is to embrace them and stay in the game. Your willing-ness to take part will be the determining factor in how far you can go and how many opportunities you will be able to take advantage of. Don’t be a fence sitter. Your numbers are 6, 12, 16, 27, 30, 33, 46
ARIES (March 21-April 19): Don’t make an impul-sive remark or decision when the crux of the mat-ter is more complex. Look past the obvious and you will find the right answers. Love is in the stars.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Your mind may be on your future and the chang-es ahead of you, but take a moment to enjoy the company of friends and family. A patient approach to life, love and happi-ness will position you nicely for advancement.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Add extra effort to whatever you pursue and you will be successful. Allow time to develop hob-bies and skills you enjoy the most. An emotional matter will disrupt your plans.
CANCER (June 21-July 22): Speaking of some-thing you know little about will be frowned upon. A personal matter that involved you and some-one you love will develop into a full-fledged dispute if you refuse to compro-mise. Pay your way and your way only.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Trust your instincts and your judgment when deal-ing with friends, relatives or neighbors. Don’t get upset before you know the facts. Put your trou-bles on hold and enjoy time spent with someone you care for.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): A little will go a long way if you are energetic and do what needs to be done without hiring help. Share your plans with
someone knowledgeable and experienced and you will come up with some-thing unique and detailed to your liking.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Don’t let your emo-tions get the better of you. Accept whatever change is heading your way. There is so much to look forward to once you get moving. You will be pleasantly surprised if you are patient.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): An interesting money-making plan will be tempt-ing but, just because it works for someone else, doesn’t ensure it will work for you. Expect someone to make a costly, last-min-ute change. How swiftly you adjust is what will count.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You can offer your skills, knowledge or experience and get something equally good in return. Making changes at home will be beneficial emotionally, mentally and financially. Love is looking good if you make plans for two.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You will have plenty to consider and even more to get done. Don’t let someone who doesn’t agree with what you are doing slow you down. An emotional mat-ter will be costly if you don’t honor a contract or promise.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Do whatever is required to make your life more efficient. Changes to your home or a move should reflect your pres-ent stage in life. Prepare to spend on items that will ease your stress or bring you greater comfort. Don’t let someone who cares about you let you down.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Focus on what’s best for everyone before you proceed or you can expect to face a power struggle. You will be judged by what you have already done and how successful you have been, so do not leave anything to chance.

Ask God for help with being a dad
Q: We’re about to have our fi rst child, and the thought of being a parent has me scared stiff. I want to be a good father to him, but I don’t have any idea what to do. My own father left when I was three, and I never had any example to follow. Any suggestions? -- Z.N.
A: Tomorrow, our nation celebrates Father’s Day, a special time when we honor our fathers and the infl uence they’ve had in our lives. Even if they were absent or imperfect, they still gave us life, and we should thank God for them.
And I hope you’ll take time this Father’s Day to thank God for the privilege He is giving you of being a father. Yes, you may feel inad-equate and scared. But God is still entrusting this child into your hands -- because He believes you’ll be able to rise to the challenge (with His help). See your son as a gift from God, and ask Him to help you be the best father you can be. The Bible says, “Sons are a heritage from the Lord, children a reward from him” (Psalm 127:3).
How can you be a good father? First, love your son -- and let him know you love him. Just as our heavenly Father repeatedly shows us His love, so we earthly fathers repeatedly need to show our children our love. That doesn’t mean we don’t correct them when they do wrong -- but even then, our goal is to help them do what is right, because we love them.
Then teach your son about God as he grows, and about Christ’s love for him. Most of all, make Christ the founda-tion of your life and your home.

Colo. bikini coffee shop closes following boycott
AURORA, Colo. (AP) — A suburban Den-ver coffee shop whose bikini-clad baristas prompted a boycott has closed its doors.
Perky Cups was evicted from its home in an Aurora shopping center for failing to pay rent and for violating terms of the lease, including operating outside the shop’s premises.
Owner Jason Bernal sent women wear-ing bikinis onto city streets to advertise the shop. That prompted City Councilwoman Molly Markert and at least 30 other people to sign a petition last month calling for a boycott of the shop and other businesses in the same shopping center.
Bernal says he’s relieved the shop has closed because of problems he’s had with the landlord. He plans to open a new location in the coming weeks.
Landlord Greg Coleman wouldn’t say how much money Bernal owed because their dis-pute is now in court.
Identical twins in Washington differ on politics
PORT ORCHARD, Wash. (AP) — Identical twins Patrick and Nathan Griffi n-Hall like the same food, the same movies, the same books.
But the 27-year-old brothers who live together in Port Orchard, Wash., split when it comes to politics.
Patrick is a Republican and Nathan is a Dem-ocrat, and both have registered as candidates for precinct committee offi cer in their respec-tive parties. Both are running unopposed.
Patrick will be serving his third term, Nathan his fi rst.
From an early age, Patrick sensed he was dif-ferent from the rest of his large blended family.
He says, “They’re all hippie liberals. I’m the lone conservative.”
Maine man fi nds lost class ring 27 years later
HALLOWELL, Maine (AP) — A Maine man who lost his high school class ring 27 years ago while swimming in a quarry found it right where he thought it was all along.
The owner of the Granite Hill quarry in Hal-lowell is draining it to restart mining.
When Jason Cottle saw a picture in the Ken-nebec Journal in Augusta of the draining, he decided to go look for his ring.
The 45-year-old carpenter from Gardiner found it Thursday on a ledge that would have been 35 feet under the waterline — right where he and his friends used to swim.
He also found other jewelry, clothing, keys, four pairs of glasses, unexploded blasting caps, $3 in change and a safe with a hole cut in the side.
Cottle says he also found the diving mask he lost when he went looking for the ring back in 1983.
Tons of bushmeat smuggled into Paris, study fi nds
PARIS (AP) — The traders sell an array of bushmeat: monkey carcasses, smoked ant-eater, even preserved porcupine.
But this isn’t a roadside market in Africa - it’s the heart of Paris, where a new study has found more than fi ve tons of bushmeat slips through the city’s main airport each week.
Experts suspect similar amounts are arriving in other European hubs as well - an illegal trade that is raising concerns about diseases ranging from monkeypox to Ebola, and is another twist in the continent’s struggle to integrate a growing African immigrant population.
The research, the fi rst time experts have documented how much bushmeat is smuggled into any European city, was published Friday in the journal Conservation Letters.
