From Russia with artTatyana Shurtz paints murals, portraits, dreams

BY SARAH [email protected]

Tatyana Shurtz traded her pencils for paintbrush-es nearly four years ago.

The 43-year-old Spencer resident ditched sketchingfor painting after receiving a set of oil paints, brushesand canvasses from her husband, Vern, as a Christ-mas present in 2006.“Since then I’ve been passionately in love with oils

and have never looked back,” Shurtz said. “Painting ismy way to express my love of life.”A self-taught traditional artist, Shurtz has no for-

mal art training. She grew up in Saint Petersburg,Russia, where her mother and grandmother encour-aged her to tap into her creativity at an early age.“Sketching was my hobby,” she said. “It totally

channeled a different world.”Shurtz went on to receive training in technical engi-

neering, but she never pursued a job in the field. In-stead, she has become a jill-of-all-trades when itcomes to freelancing. Not only does she do commis-sioned oil paintings, she also works as a graphic de-signer, face painter and muralist.Last year, Shurtz teamed up with fellow artist Ma-

rina Bare to create Mural Miracle, a company thatspecializes in murals.“Between the two of us, we can paint just about

anything anybody would want,”Shurtz said.The pair lend their talents

providing face painting duringNights Out in downtown Salis-bury.“It’s still art,” Shurtz said.

“Faces are just a different canvas.”Shurtz also partnered with her husband to create

an application that can be purchased through Apple’sApp Store. The couple spent about three months work-ing on the children’s game “Adventures of Oboltus.”On a typical day, you might find Shurtz sanding,

spackling and painting the walls of her century-oldhistoric house in Spencer, writing a blog in her nativetongue of Russian or painting a scene from herdreams.She has already completed renovations to several

rooms at her home, but admits there is still a lot ofwork to be done.“We basically gutted it,” Shurtz said. “It’s a mess

right now, but it’s really going to be beautiful whenit’s finished.”Shurtz is doing the majority of the renovations by

herself, while her husband works full time inCharleston, S.C.“I’m doing it myself partly because it’s cheaper and

partly because it’s therapeutic,” she said. “I love it.”When it’s time to sit down to work on a painting,

Shurtz escapes to a room at the front of her home. Thespace is a painter’s paradise, with sunlight cascadingthrough gigantic windows and no furniture in sight ex-cept a chair and an easel.Shurtz prefers to paint portraits and fantasy se-

quences, but is always looking for a challenge.When commissioned to do portraits, she uses her

Nikon camera to take about 300 pictures of the sub-ject.“It’s better for me to paint from my own pictures,”

she said. “That way I get to know the person I’m paint-ing.”While most people view sleep as a monotonous rou-

tine, a good night’s slumber oftentimes inspiresShurtz’s painting. “I have vivid dreams,” Shurtz said. “Many of my

paintings are from those dreams.”• • •

RALEIGH (AP) — North Carolina’s Leg-islature was among the last in the countryin 2007 to create its own watchdog team toscrutinize state programs and determinewhether they’re running efficiently.The Program Evaluation Division is al-

ready making its mark. During this year’seight-week session alone, the General As-sembly approved and Gov. Beverly Perduesigned into law significant pieces of legis-lation on four topics examined by the divi-sion, including ABC reform, education, sell-ing state aircraft and retooling state con-tract rules.“That’s a really good batting average,”

Phil Leone, director of Virginia’s Joint Leg-islative Audit and Review Commission, oneof the 45 similar entities in other states.“When you have four areas like that, that’squite an accomplishment.”North Carolina’s division has led a recent

effort within the General Assembly tocounter complaints there’s not enough dig-ging in the budget and state government todecide whether the “way it’s always beendone” still works.“I think we are gaining credibility and

gaining some momentum,” said John Tur-cotte, the division’s director, who ran sim-ilar operations in Mississippi and Floridabefore coming to Raleigh.The 10-employee division is separate

from the Legislature’s regular and largernonpartisan staff whose main job is to helpdraft bills and perform research for poten-tial legislation. The new division examineswhether current government services arebeing delivered effectively and lawfully.The Legislature or the division’s 18-mem-ber bipartisan oversight committee decideswhat the division will examine.The division’s creation grew from a 2006

effort by lawmakers to begin the first stategovernment performance audit in 15 years,but the project evolved into the approval ofa permanent team that already has issued24 reports on topics from mental healthspending to underground fuel storage tanks.“There are no sacred cows here and let

the chips fall where they may,” said Sen.Dan Clodfelter, D-Mecklenburg, an over-sight panel co-chairman who likened the di-vision to the U.S. Government Accountabil-ity Office.Some reports have generated no buzz,

but a December 2008 evaluation of thestate’s Alcoholic Beverage Control systemlaid the groundwork for one of this year’ssuccesses. The report came out months be-fore negative stories about salaries and din-ners involving local ABC boards helpedbuild support for ethics and operational re-forms.State contract and purchasing rules also

were retooled following examinations byboth the division and State Auditor BethWood’s office. The Legislature also agreedall high school seniors wouldn’t be requiredto complete special projects to graduate af-ter a division report determined there wasno evidence their benefits were worth theprojected $6.6 million cost to implement.Turcotte attributed this year’s effective-

ness to an experienced staff, committedoversight committee leaders and bipartisansupport of the committee’s work.“I’m very pleased that they’re there and

hope they will come up with much more and

Salisbury Post, predicts a high temperatureof 99 degrees today under mostly sunnyskies, while the National Weather Serviceforecasts a high of only 93.The two services agree, however, the

mercury will push 100 the rest of the week. According to the National Weather Serv-

ice, the heat coupled with humidty willmake it feel as hot as 105 outside.And as of Sunday, neither service was

Q: How did Andrew get ready forthe Nationals and how was he ableto handle the pressure?

A: I tell you this, when morethan 11,000 athletes from all overthe USA come together in oneplace, it is quite impressive. Justfor our 17 Salisbury Speedstersto qualify for the Nationals is ahuge accomplishment.The AAU Track and Field or-

ganization had the Nationals or-ganized down tothe tee. Eventsstarted exactly atthe time plannedand not a minutesooner or later. Anexample, they did200 heats of 100meters in twohours.Andrew just

turned 10 yearsold July 3 and isquite the athlete

and I am very proud of him. Butit does not come for free. As a re-tired top athlete, I know that yourathlete, young or old, needs to“want it” to be able to compete onhigh levels. It does not matterhow much talent they have, whenyou get to the top of the country,everyone has talent. At this levelyou need talent, dedication, hardwork and sacrifices. Lots of sac-rifices. And of course support ofyour parents, coaches and teammembers.This is Andrew’s second year

running and he has made an im-pression on this year’s Nationalsin Norfolk, Va.He has an amazing talent for

running but also a great love fortrack and field. When you are incompetitive track and field, yoursummer is completely taken upby track meets every weekend,and three to four workouts aweek. Each lasts one hour to anhour and a half.My husband Kevin is the mid-

dle distance coach for SalisburySpeedsters. Tim Dunlap is thehead coach.Kevin was a cross country run-

ner and 800 meters runner whenhe was in high school. He wasgood at it. Around 16 minutes onthe 5K cross country and twominutes on the 800 meters (again,this was a long, long time ago). Hehas a true love for running and ithas nurtured Andrew’s love andpassion for running.Andrew is all boy. You can ask

his teachers from kindergartenthrough fourth grade. He is smartand loves to try new things (notalways the best choice!). But thisyear, his second year running,Kevin sat down with him in thebeginning of the season (middleof March we start our practices)and set physical goals — whattimes we were shooting for — butalso mental goals. What he wantsin the future, what is he willingto do for it, etc.Now, I believe a child needs to

be able to be a child, but I also be-lieve that if they want to reachcertain goals, sacrifices have tobe made. I don’t want to be theparent (or coach) who has to begand/or bribe their child to run (ordo any sport they participate in).It has to come from within: thepassion, love and drive. It has to

be there because practices aretough, and lots of time and mon-ey has to be dedicated to yoursport. Any parent of a competi-tive, traveling sport understandsthis statement.Andrew’s longtime goal is to

make it to the Olympics. Mybrother has been to two Olympicsalready as a field hockey coach,and I have a niece who is prep-ping for the London olympics indiving. So why not make it a fam-ily event.Now, it is a long road ahead,

and if he stays healthy and makesit through puberty, we will behalfway there.This year’s goal was qualify-

ing for the AAU Nationals and toplace in the top three in bothevents. His goal for the 1500 me-ters was to go five minutes or be-low, and for the 800 meters, hisgoal was 2.15 or less (nationalrecord is 2.19 but these were hisgoals!). Through the summer, wewere at track meets most week-ends and through the week, hewas able to go swim and evenmade it to Carowinds a couple oftimes. The closer we got to the Na-

tionals, the more intense theworkouts became and the greaterthe sacrifices. An example: Heasked if he could go to Carowindsthe Wednesday before a hugecompetition at Duke Universityand a week and a couple of daysaway from the Nationals. Insteadof telling him no, I asked him,“What is your goal for Duke, andwhat is your goal for Nationals?”He wanted to win both at Dukeand place top three at Nationals.

I asked, “Can you do that if yougo swim and play at Carowindsall day?” He replied, “No.” “Well, it is your choice if you

want to go,” I said. He decided hewanted to keep his energy for theworkouts (his words and yes aproud parent moment!) and de-cided not to go.He worked out very hard and

my husband did a great job get-ting him ready for Nationals!He was seeded third in the

1500 meters and he was seededeighth in the 800 meters when theperformance list came out.Ranked in the top eight puts quitea bit of pressure on an athlete.But fortunately, like his mother,he performs well under pressure— something which is hard to“train” in an athlete.He placed second in the 1500

meters with a 4.59.06. His person-al best before this day was a 5.04(too fast for his mother!) The nextday was the 800 meters. He gotfourth with a personal best of2.29.46. Mind you that third placewas 2.29.40.Talent, hard work, sacrifices,

“blood, sweat and tears” and agreat coach (thank you Kevin) gothim second- and fourth-place inthe nation, two huge medals, newfriends and lots of great memo-ries. The 2011 AAU Nationals arein New Orleans, La. Kevin, An-drew and I can’t wait for the nextseason to start. OK, after a smallbreak.

As North Carolina’s salestax holiday wound down thisweekend, local shopperswere still taking advantageof the lower cost.

Back-to-school itemsringing up without state orlocal taxes this weekend in-cluded clothing, shoes,school supplies, instruction-al materials, sports equip-ment, computers and com-puter supplies.

Mark and Christie Rus-sell, of Mocksville, went toOffice Depot in Salisbury tolook for a desktop computerfor their daughter, Mollie.

“We’re looking for some-thing simple that meets theneeds of an 8-year-old,”Christie said. “She can playon that one and it will freeup a computer for us.”

Christie said they hadbeen looking at options for awhile and decided to finallybuy Sunday when the bigpurchase would be tax-free.

Amy Lowe, of Salisbury,said she has shopped forclothes and school suppliesall weekend.

“We’ve been shoppingsince Friday at Walmart,

Target, J.C. Penney, Belk andKmart,” Lowe said. “I thinkwe’ve got everything.”

She said the only thing leftto shop for was a bookbag forher 8-year-old son, Spencer.

“He was looking for a par-ticular one, and Target adver-tised it, but they didn’t haveit,” Lowe said.

Spencer did find the Nin-tendo-themed bookbag atKmart, but he reconsideredafter seeing the colorful rowsof other options.

“I think I’ll look at some ofthese, too,” he said.

Salisbury resident KellyAustin also took her son shop-ping for school supplies Sun-

day.At the Office Depot,

she and 9-year-oldWilliam piled composi-tion books, markers,sharpeners and a flashdrive in a shopping bas-ket.

“We’ll use some left-overs from last year,too,” Austin said.

Even though she did-n’t buy much this week-end, she said she still ap-preciates the tax break.

“It’s nice; it does help,” shesaid.

The state sales tax is 5.75percent, and the overallsales tax rate in Rowan

County is 8 percent. This in-cludes a quarter-cent salestax passed by voters last No-vember to pay for a new jailannex and a federally man-dated telecommnications

Co-workersoothes hurtof injustice

This recollection comesfrom the workplace —not my established long-

term workplaces, but fromthose short-term ones at thebeginnings of my “work histo-

ry.”It was the

summer of1973, and Iwas hired as acashier at theRoses store atthe old RowanMall. ThatRoses storewas touted asone of thelargest, if not

the largest, stores of the Ros-es chain.

I was put on a single regis-ter at the very front entranceof the store. I don’t recall thereason for that register’s sin-gular placement, perhaps tocatch some of the overflowfrom the other registers fromdeeper within the store. Iwould also assist at the count-er that dealt with jewelry andwatches, preferring watches,since I knew a little bit moreabout them.

The gentleman who wasmy supervisor ( by using theword “gentleman,” I’m beinga nice old man) had the lastname “Williams.” His person-ality was such that if I hadn’talready been a Williams , Iwould have wanted to give upthe name. But I figured hewas from a different set ofWilliamses who evidentlyweren’t as well taught bytheir mother as my brotherand I had been taught by ours.

I was working the frontregister one evening whenMr. Williams told me to go im-mediately to the jewelrycounter. I left immediatelyand headed in that direction,but he called me back, sayingthat I had not locked the cashdrawer of my register, and soI was now “fired!”

I confided this to an olderlady by the name of “Ruth”who worked there and whom Ihad befriended. She was incharge of the departmentwhich dealt with sheets, cur-tains, etc., and had workedthere for some time. She setup a meeting with the manag-er, my supervisor, herself andme. Mr. Williams had hired agood friend of his on the fol-lowing day, revealing the truereason for my sudden dis-missal with no warning.

The manager said thatwhat Mr. Williams did wasnot right, but that the newworker could not be let go tobe replaced by me. He saidthey could give me a job inshipping, so I told them Iwould let them know. Not be-ing very muscular (I remem-bered my old days during re-cess at Granite QuarrySchool), I had my doubts.

Ruth said, “I wouldn’t evenfool with them; they can dobetter than that !” So I didn’t“fool with them.” I told them“Thanks, but no!” I went toKemp, my former manager atRay’s Kingburger, who had al-ways dealt fairly with me. Hesaid they needed me and that Ihad always been reliable.

Looking back, Ruth likeddifferent kinds of music, asdid I. She liked those old “101Strings” records and liked tolisten to Bill Gaither albums.She especially enjoyed arecording of the Germancomposer Max Bruch’s FirstViolin Concerto in G Minor,which she had found at a yardsale. She let me borrow it torun off a copy onto a cassettetape.

I was surprised when I sawit because it was recorded on45 rpm records. But since itwas not a very long piece, theentire recording necessitatedonly a couple of 45s. This wasthe first time I had seen clas-sical music on 45s. I alwaysremember Ruth saying that itwas “the most beautiful musicthat I ever heard.”

There were some peoplewho made fun of Ruth, sayingshe was “simple-minded.” Itwas more of an emotionalsimplicity than an intellectualone. She was “simply” moti-vated by goodness to alwaysdo what she could to bringjustice for a hurt.

CHINA GROVE— Abouttwo dozen quilts of allshapes, sizes and colorslined the walls of a room atthe China Grove Roller MillMuseum Sunday afternoon.

The Historical Society ofSouth Rowan, which oper-ates the museum, sponsoredan open house featuringhomemade quilts frommembers of Salisbury-Rowan Quilters Guild.

Historical Society Char-ter Member Carole Brooke,of China Grove, said shefirst invited the guild for adisplay about two years ago.

“We had such great atten-dance that we wanted to doit again,” Brooke said.

Barbara Bruce, presidentof the Salisbury Rowan Quil-ters Guild, said the displayhelps draw interest to quilt-ing.

“Residents look and wan-der in, and then people startmaking phone calls,” saidBruce, a Granite Quarry res-ident.

She spoke to visitorsabout different types of quiltpatterns and their distinctnames. She also shared a lit-tle of the history of quilting.

“It started as an art of re-cycling,” Bruce said. “Peo-ple would use feed sacks,flour sacks, parts of clothesthat had worn out and left-over fabric from making theclothes.”

People still recycle fab-ric today, she said, but it’smore common for them togo to fabric stores and buywhat they need for a quilt.

There were about 30 vis-tors to the museum Sunday,Brooke said. One of themtraveled all the way fromNorway.

Tor Strengehagen wasvisiting his fiancee, Salis-bury resident Giny Wilson,who invited him to the mu-seum. Wilson works withthe Historical Society, soshe has seen it many times.

“I had to show him themill, because he hears aboutit all the time from me,” Wil-son said.

Strengehagen said heliked finally seeing the mu-seum’s historic collection.The mill was in operationfrom 1895 to 1995, process-ing wheat and corn into flourand corn meal. It now dis-plays various historic equip-ment, photographs andmemorabilia from ChinaGrove.

“It’s very nice,” he said.“It’s interesting that theytake care of these oldthings.”

They both said the quiltdisplay was beautiful.

“I love quilts,” Wilsonsaid. “My grandmother

quilted a lot, and I have sev-eral pieces from her origi-nals. It’s almost a lost art in alot of ways, and I would loveto know how to do it well.” All

of the quilts on display exceptfor one — an antique — weremade by members of theQuilters Guild.

During the open house,

Salisbury resident LindaBryant demonstrated hand-quilting. Judy Firth, also ofSalisbury, worked on needle-turn applique.

Firth explained that ap-plique is the process of lay-ering fabric shapes to createa design. In some cases, therough edges of the shapes aresimply sewn to the fabric un-derneath.

“But this way, you use theneedle to turn it under (be-fore sewing), so there are noraw edges,” she said.

Catalyst for Louisiana Superdome dies at 87NEW ORLEANS (AP) —

Businessman Dave Dixon,who fought to bring an NFLteam to New Orleans and wasthe catalyst behind construc-tion of the Louisiana Super-dome, died on Sunday. Hewas 87.Dixon had been ill since

January, said his son, FrankDixon, who confirmed hisdeath.“He was always coming

up with new thoughts andideas. Until his dying day, hewas thinking,” Frank Dixonsaid.Dixon persuaded New Or-

leans officials to pursue afootball franchise ratherthan baseball in the 1960s. Inhis autobiography, “TheSaints, The Superdome andthe Scandal,” Dixon wrotethere were strong reasonsfor the NFL to consider NewOrleans, including its mildwinter weather, a great foot-ball tradition and 80,000-seatTulane Stadium. Dixon was aTulane University graduate.Dixon, whose supporters

for a team included Gov.John McKeithen and cityrestaurant owners, staged anNFL double header at TulaneStadium, which drew a crowdthat nearly filled the place.New Orleans was award-

ed the Saints on All-SaintsDay 1966. Frank Dixon saidhis father recently told himhow the timing of the an-nouncement came about.He said NFL Commission-

er Pete Rozelle called his fa-ther the week before aboutthe deal and his dad suggest-ed they wait a week to an-nounce it on that day.“Both Pete Roselle and my

father were great mar-keters,” Frank Dixon said. “Iwonder where New Orleanswould be today if it didn’thave the Saints and Super-

dome. I don’t think that everwould have happened if myfather wouldn’t have beenhere.”Dixon started thinking

about the stadium shortly af-ter the city got the team.“I think as soon as Tulane

agreed to let us use their sta-dium for an NFL team I start-ed planning the Superdome,”he told The Associated Pressin 2002. “I knew having80,000 people in those neigh-borhoods 10 times a year wasnot going to work for long.”The Superdome opened on

Aug. 3, 1975. But it wasn’t un-til last season that the Saints,a perennial loser, broughthome a Super Bowl victoryto the city that is still recov-ering from 2005’s HurricaneKatrina.Dixon was elated at the

team’s 31-28 overtime victo-ry over the MinnesotaVikings that sent the Saintsto the Super Bowl. He wasforced to watch the game onTV because of his health.“Oh, man,” he told AP the

Monday after the win. “I feellike I’m in heaven. Just won-

derful. I had a little heartproblem. But I feel much bet-ter. I’m very exhilaratedover the Saints’ great victo-ry.”New Orleans Saints own-

er Tom Benson said in astatement that Dixon “was adistinguished civic leaderwith a unique vision and hewas widely admired aroundour region as a leader whowas dedicated to the devel-opment of the Louisiana Su-perdome.”Katrina ripped off part of

the Superdome’s roof. It alsofailed miserably as a shelterof last resort when the dev-astating storm flooded thecity. Thousands of peoplewho had nowhere else to goflocked to the stadium. With-in days, the building was tat-tered, filthy inside frommold, debris and raw sewage.Over the next year, the Su-

perdome was rebuilt, andslowly, New Orleans hastried to get back to what itonce was. The Saints’ successhas played a role in helpingthe city by giving it some-thing to celebrate.Dixon worked with

Kansas City Chiefs ownerLamar Hunt to found WorldChampionship Tennis, FrankDixon said.In 1965, Dave Dixon con-

ceived the idea for the Unit-ed States Football League,which operated from 1982 to1985 before folding, his sonsaid.“He believed in the broth-

erhood of man. He loved peo-ple and people loved himback,” Frank Dixon said Sun-day.Dave Dixon is survived by

his wife; his three sons,David Frank Dixon, JohnShea Dixon and Martin Stu-art Dixon and four grandchil-dren.

Forced to retire, some take Social Security earlyMIAMI (AP) — Paul Skid-

more’s office is shuttered, hisjob gone, his 18-month jobsearch fruitless and his unem-ployment benefits exhausted. Soat 63, he plans to file this weekfor Social Security benefits,three years earlier than planned.“All I want to do is work,”

said Skidmore, of Finksburg,Md., who was an insuranceclaims adjuster for 37 years be-fore his company downsized andclosed his office last year. “Andnobody will hire me.”It is one of the most striking

fallouts from the bad economy:Social Security is facing a rareshortfall this year as a wave ofpeople like Skidmore opt to col-lect payments before their fullretirement age. Adding to thestrain on the trust are reducedtax collections sapped by thecountry’s historic unemploy-ment — still at 9.5 percent.More people filed for Social

Security in 2009 — 2.74 million— than any year in history, andthere was a marked increase inthe number receiving reducedbenefits because they filedahead of their full retirementage. The increase came as thefull Social Security retirementage rose last year from 65 to 66.Nearly 72 percent of men

who filed opted for early bene-fits in 2009, up from 58 percentthe previous year. More womenalso filed — 74.7 percent in 2009compared with 64.2 percent theprevious year.Jason Fichtner, an associate

commissioner at the Social Se-curity Administration, said theweak economy has led morepeople who lost their jobs to re-tire early. However, it also hasforced some people hard-hit bythe recession and in need of abigger paycheck to push backretirement and stay in the workforce longer.“But we’re seeing more peo-

ple taking early benefits thanstaying in the workforcelonger,” Fichtner said.Like Skidmore, 63-year-old

Jan Gissel of Tustin, Calif., alsowas forced into retirement ear-ly. She turned to unemploymentbenefits when her technical sup-port business failed and filed forSocial Security last September.Together, the checks are keep-ing her afloat.“I knew I had to have an in-

come from somewhere, and mybusiness wasn’t giving it to me,”she said. “I just went online and,boom, three weeks later I hadthe check.”Gissel wants to continue

working but still hasn’t found ajob. Although she didn’t expectto be cashing Social Securitychecks so soon, she’s gratefulfor the support it has provided.“I needed it way earlier than

I thought,” she said.In the annual report of the So-

cial Security program released

Thursday, the trustees said thatpension and disability paymentswill exceed revenues for thisyear and 2011, reflecting thedeep recession.The report forecast that the

program would return to theblack in 2012through 2014,but that benefitpayments willagain exceedtax collectionsin 2015. Forevery year af-ter 2015, the re-port projectsthat Social Se-curity will bepaying outmore than it re-ceives in taxcollections as78 million babyboomers begin retiring.The trustees did not focus

on the growth of early retireesin their report, as they don’t ex-pect the early retirees to sig-nificantly drain funds over thelong term. Early opt-ins receivesmaller monthly checks so thatthey aren’t projected to receiveany more money over a life-time than they would if theyhad waited to collect Social Se-curity until their full retire-ment age.People entitled to full bene-

fits at 66 would receive 75 per-cent of their check if they be-gan collecting four years ear-ly. Conversely, if they waiteduntil they turned 70, collectingfour years late, they wouldearn 32 percent more.They would receive the de-

creased — or increased — per-centages for the rest of theirlife.“From the trustees’ perspec-

tive it’s a wash, because theycalculate you’ll get the same to-tal benefit,” said Maria Freese,director of government rela-tions and policy at the Nation-al Committee to Preserve So-

cial Security and Medicare.Freese added, though, that

beneficiaries generally onlyopt in early because they haveto.“When you retire early, you

are taking a hit in your month-ly check, andmost peopledon’t do thatvoluntarily,”she said.“They eitherdo that be-cause theyaren’t healthyenough tokeep workingor becausethey lost theirjob.”N o r a

Lopez, 62, ofHialeah, Fla.,

retired from her job as an el-ementary school teacher lastyear and began collecting So-cial Security. She did so, inpart, because of health prob-lems. When her school districtoffered teachers the option ofkeeping their health insur-ance coverage until they qual-ified for Medicare at 65, shedecided she could get by onher pension and Social Secu-rity.“I wanted to work as long as

I could,” she said. “But it washard for me to do that.”For some, it’s simply a mat-

He decided to doit after his wife figured outthey’d be able to get by evenwith the reduced Social Secu-rity benefit.“Why should I go out there

Is Your Hypothyroid Medicine Really Working?

For A Surprising Number Of People… The answer is NO!

Doctor reveals potentially helpful testing process and natural treatments that may help some people with an underactive thyroid stop suffering needlessly from low energy, chronic fatigue,

weight gain and more… then tells how to find out if you are one of them

Kannapolis, NC – If you’re one of the millions of Americans who have been diagnosed with an underactive thyroid (hypothyroidism), there’s a chance that conventional treatment may not be helping you.

That’s because conventional treatments only look at ONE component of hypo-thyroidism (more on that below). So despite the fact that many patients are following doctor’s orders by eating better, exercising, trying to lose weight and taking their pills as prescribed… they still aren’t getting any better. In fact, some actually feel worse.

They feel worse because despite all their hard work and diligence, their problem is still progressing.

How is that possible? It’s possible because there are several components to testing for hypothyroidism but more often than not, only ONE component of the testing is done.

The Trouble With Diagnosing Hypothyroidism

You see, the most common test typically

measures the amount of thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) in your bloodstream. TSH is like a “light switch” that triggers your thyroid to make the hormones your body needs to regulate your metabolism. If your thyroid isn’t working, TSH in your bloodstream is like turning on a light switch when the bulb is burned out.

So commonly when doctors see that you have a high TSH level, the common prescription is thyroid hormones like Synthroid (or the generic Levothyroxine) to replace what your thyroid isn’t producing. Once these build up in your system, your TSH levels go down, and your blood work goes back “normal”.

But this approach sometimes doesn’t help people feel better…

And yet, because the hormones lower the amount of TSH in your bloodstream, some patients are considered “treated.”

Unfortunately The Question… WHY Is The Thyroid

Underactive? Often Goes Unanswered

As a result, some common underlying

imbalances that may make the problem worse are overlooked. It could be other factors like adrenals, or sometimes the problem, isn’t a hormone imbalance. It can be an autoimmune condition called Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis (Chronic Lymphocytic Thyroiditis). Patients who have Hashimoto’s develop low thyroid because their immune system attacks the thyroid and destroys its ability to function.

So IF your low thyroid is caused by Hashimoto’s (and there’s a chance that it is) you may not get the results you need from thyroid hormone replacement you’re hoping for. But if you stop your own body from attacking your thyroid, you may finally get better.

That’s why it’s absolutely critical to know…

Symptoms often include depression, fatigue, weight gain, and even anxiety, insomnia, hair loss, muscle/joint aches and pains, among others.

How to Tell If Your Thyroid Treatment Is Working

If your thyroid treatment is working, you’ll feel better after a few weeks of treatment. You’ll have more energy. You’ll feel happier, and more optimistic. You’ll probably feel like you did 10 years ago!

But if you don’t experience these results… even after your tests come back “normal”…even after your doctor raises your medication dose… then your treatment may not be working or may need some “extra” help..

What to Expect If Your Treatment Isn’t Working

Long time Kannapolis area health advocate Dr. Andrew R. Matthews, DC is talking about what patients can expect if their treatment isn’t working… “If you don’t treat the underlying nutritional deficiencies and imbalances – the patients can continue to get worse.” Do some patients NEED medications? Yes. Can many patients do things that could reduce or eliminate their medications and radically improve their quality of life? ABSOLUTELY. Which one are you? You’ll need a proper consultation and evaluation with an EXPERIENCED doctor to find that out. The point here is NOT to say that medications are not needed or inappropriate. The point is to say that there are simple strategies virtually every patient can utilize to radically improve their function and help their recovery.

So if you’re tired of being rushed through your doctor appointments… if you’re tired of being told you’re fine because your tests are “normal”… and if you’re tired of treatments that aren’t making you feel better, … then it’s time to take your health into your own hands. If you don’t…

You won’t lose any weight despite low calorie diets and intense exercise. You may pack on even more pounds as your disease progresses unchecked…

Your immune system will grow weaker. You can catch colds, flu and “bugs” that go

around much more easily and you’ll take longer to recover…

And you’ll continue to feel run down and fatigued. Some patients feel like life is passing them by and become depressed.

Here’s the good news: If you qualify you may not have to suffer any longer. Instead, you just might be able to…

Regain All The Energy You’ve Lost… Shed All The Weight

You’ve Gained… And Finally Reclaim Your Life

Your first step is to determine once and for all if your condition can be further helped. Understand that this is not an approach to take you off your medications or give you more, that’s your doctor’s job. Our job is to help you get your body healthier, be more vibrant, and improve quality of life. As part of this wellness series, we’ve arranged for you to have a FREE Thyroid Health & Wellness Consultation.

The evaluation/consultations normally cost $247 and are available on a first-come, first-serve basis. Schedule your evaluation consultation now, before all appointments are booked. Call and ask for the consultation and don’t let your condition steal one more minute of your life.

If Not Now… When?

Since you’ve read this far, you must want to return to the vibrant, energetic, happy person you were before your thyroid problems. Having read this far, you finally know why your treatment hasn’t been working. And you know there’s hope for a solution. Why wouldn’t you schedule an evaluation consultation?

If you don’t make the positive decision to finally do this one thing for yourself right now… when will you?

SALISBURY POST MONDAY, AUGUST 9, 2010 • 5A

Now and then, I get thiskind of question: “I have$1,000 to invest. Which stocksor mutual funds are risk-freewith a guaranteed rate of re-

turn?”That makes

me laugh be-cause not onlyis there nosuch thing butalso someonethinks I am aninvestment ad-viser. I am notqualified to ad-vise anyone onthe stock mar-

ket. My investment advice ismore unconventional.

Why do we have such a de-sire to invest? So we can readprospectuses and attendshareholder meetings? No. Wewant our money to grow. Wewant to build wealth. We wantto increase our personal networth.

There are two ways youcan do that. You can increaseyour assets or decrease yourliabilities. Either will boostyour net worth, dollar for dol-lar. There may be an easierway to grow your net worththan to plunge yourself intothe stock market, where therisk could exceed your com-fort level.

Let’s say you receive a$1,000 bonus. With it you buyshares in a highly rated mutu-al fund. Your net worth in-creases by $1,000. Nextmonth, when that hot invest-ment takes a nose dive anddrops by 50 percent (couldhappen), your net worth de-creases by $500.

But you have anotherchoice. You can use that bonusto repay $1,000 of debt. Yournet worth still increases by$1,000 because you reducedyour liabilities without anyrisk. It’s a done deal. There isno chance this “investment”

will reverse itself. But wait.There’s more.

Investing in your debt paysyou interest equal to theamount of interest you werepaying on the debt. Really!

Go back to the $1,000 debtyou paid off in the previousexample. If it was a creditcard balance at 18 percent andyou were making minimumpayments, you were paying$15 in interest each month, or$180 annually. Once the debtis paid off, you no longer willpay that $180 in interest. Youget to keep it. That is your 18percent return on the $1,000you invested in your debt. Doyou know of any other invest-ment that guarantees an 18percent return?

There are no minimum re-quirements to invest in yourdebt as there are to invest inother ways. If you have an ex-tra dollar, you can apply it di-rectly to your debt, increasingyour net worth by $1.

It makes so much sense toinvest in your unsecured debtuntil it is paid completely.Then what? I suggest youstart investing in your se-cured debts. Every benefit ofinvesting in your unsecureddebt holds true for your se-cured debt. Your “return oninvestment” will be less be-cause mortgage interest istypically lower than interestcharged on credit cards, butit is still an investment ap-proach.

Every dollar you invest inyour mortgage puts you thatmuch closer to owning yourhome free and clear. Oncepaid, it’s yours. No one canforeclose on it or take it fromyou, regardless of what hap-pens to the economy or thestock market.

Damage to home also damages friendshipDear Amy:My husband and

I bought a vacation home inanother part of the country.

A local couple very gener-ously offered to visit thehouse periodically (they live

a mile away)and let usknow if any-thing needs tobe fixed.

We paid thegentleman fornecessary re-pairs. He’svery good athis craft.

We gavethem permis-

sion to hang out at the houseto enjoy the view, and at onetime we let them have theirson stay there with his fami-ly overnight.

It turns out that they havehad at least one large partythere. They set off lots of fire-works on our property.

The man painted our foun-tain a color of his choice, eventhough it didn’t need to bepainted and we didn’t approvethe color.

Throughout the past year,they invited additional fami-ly members to stay at ourhome without asking us, andsome minor damage was in-curred.

We requested that theyclear it with us first if theywanted to have anyone staythere in the future.

We like this couple andwant to keep them as friends,regardless of their actions.

However, they say thatsince we don’t trust them,they’ve returned the keys tothe house.

They haven’t responded toa friendly message.

What is the appropriate ac-tion to take at this point?

— NM Bound

Dear Bound: After youchange the locks and hiresomeone to serve as a care-taker of the property, and af-ter you repaint the item younever wanted painted in thefirst place and repair thedamage these people inflict-ed in your absence, youshould sit down and examinethe statement they made toyou about trust.

You don’t trust them be-cause they haven’t been trust-worthy.

Your neighbors left youwide open to theft, damageand the liability you mightface if someone was injuredon your property. This is anextreme violation of theagreement you made withthem.

Chalk this up to an error injudgment on both your parts.

If they are able to acknowl-edge their violation, then youmight be able to move on. Oth-erwise, unlike the materialdamage to your property, thedamage to your relationshipmight be irreparable.

Dear Amy: I live in a high-rise apartment building, andon a couple of occasions femaleneighbors have suggested weexchange phone numbers.

I didn’t want to pursue any-thing more than a casual“Hello” when we run intoeach other, but I was afraid Iwould hurt their feelings.

It is easy to decline thisoverture when it is a man ask-ing because I can say I havea boyfriend, but I just don’tknow what to do in these cas-es. I gave them my numberand am hoping they won’t call.

Is there a polite and gentleway to decline when someoneasks to exchange phone num-bers and I don’t want to?

What do you think I should

do? — Anxious Apartment

DwellerDear Anxious: You could

say, “I appreciate it but I’m apretty private person. I don’tlike to give my number out,but thank you for offeringyours.”

Dear Amy: I received an in-vitation in the mail for a babyshower.

I don’t know the guest ofhonor; I’ve never even heardher name.

One of the individuals host-ing the shower is my cousin’swife. I don’t keep in touchwith these cousins. I’m not sosure she would even recog-nize me if I passed her in thegrocery store.

I feel the only reason I wasinvited to this shower is be-cause I’m on the family treesomewhere and they want agift.

Unlike a wedding (where adistant relative might be in-vited), I feel bridal and babyshowers should be reservedfor close family and friends.

I didn’t even know how toRSVP that I wasn’t coming tothe shower.

What do you think?— Family Tree

Dear Family: Your RSVPshould say a version of,“Thank you for the invitation,but I will be unable to attend.”

The Star Search judges fellin love with all the folks inMayberry. Even with all the distrac-

tions — Ernest T. Bass pro-claiming his love for CharleneDarlin’, Mrs. Campbell bail-ing Otis out of jail (for thegreater punishment of “housearrest”) and Barney losing,then finding, his harmonica —they couldn’t wait to get back.“Star Search Comes to

Mayberry” will be back for areturn engagement on Satur-day, Aug. 14, at 7 p.m. in theFellowship Hall of First Bap-tist Church, Salisbury.“The Star Search judges

loved the pork chop sand-wiches, but never made it to

the homemade ice-cream con-test. When they heard May-berry was having its annualhomemade ice-cream contest,nothing could stop them fromcoming back and judging thatcontest,” says, Joyce Curl,writer and director of the “tal-ent show within a play.” “They just used that as an

excuse to get to come backand enjoy all the folks in May-berry because in some way —from pranks, rock throwing,pickin’ and grinnin’, fast fel-lowship and even boozing —each citizen in Mayberry is awinner.” The play kicked off a se-

ries of Wednesday eveningBible studies titled “Mayber-ry Revisited: The Gospel Ac-cording to Andy.” Selected episodes of the

popular television show were

used as parables to teach Bib-lical truths. The final sessionwill use the famous“Kerosene Pickles” episode todiscuss the challenge of“telling the truth in love.”The plot of the play re-

volves around a Hollywoodtalent scouting team comingto Mayberry to find local acts.Church members and somecommunity friends star in theroles of the favorite Mayber-ry characters. First Baptist’schairman of deacons, TimCooper and wife, Judy, willhost the show as Andy Taylorand Helen Crump. Local at-torney and guitarist GrahamCarlton will be joined by Rod-ney Burns, Rick McGraw,Mark Parchment and SharonDoby as the Darlin’ family.Lloyd Pace will resurrect hisrole as Ernest T. Bass.

Marie Waller will return as“the local girl who madegood.” Retired coach CharlesHellard returns as “Gary Gos-sip.” Pete and Katie Bogle willadd more laughs as Barneyand Thelma Lou. New acts being added in-

clude soloist Patrick Hunterand Glory Bound, a gospelgroup featuring Dean Orbish,Josh Orbish, Justin Hall andAlex Yost.The church had calls from

as far away as Scottsdale,Ariz., wanting to know aboutthe play and information onthe Bible studies. Several oth-er churches in Rowan Countyand the surrounding countiesare considering similar stud-ies in the fall. Much of the attention is be-

cause of the 50th anniversaryof the Andy Griffith Show

that premiered in October1960.Tickets are $7 for adults

and $3 for children under 10for the play and ice cream.Some of the proceeds will

go to purchase school sup-plies for “Communities In

Schools.” Those attendingare also encouraged to bringnew school supplies for thedrive. Call the church at 704-633-

0431 for information and tick-et reservations. A limitednumber are still available.

Report: Agent promoted despite dubious confessionRALEIGH (AP) — A news-

paper’s investigation of ques-tionable work by North Car-olina police and the statecrime lab shows that agentswere rewarded despite mak-ing mistakes and doing slip-shod work.The News & Observer of

Raleigh reported Sunday inthe first of a planned series onthe State Bureau of Investiga-tion that agent Mark Isley hadrisen through the agency’sranks the past 12 years de-spite his participation in thedubious confession of a men-tally disabled man in a mur-der case.The paper said Isley super-

vises a team of more than adozen agents investigatingMedicaid fraud.Isley would not talk with

the newspaper for its article,but his boss Robin Pender-graft said she has no evidenceIsley acted improperly in theinvestigation of Floyd Brownthat began in 1993 and ended14 years later with charges be-ing dismissed. Brown is suingIsley and the state over his ar-rest.Pendergraft was Isley’s

boss when she was director ofthe SBI and now is again asshe was recently named tohead the Medicaid fraud in-vestigations.

Pendergraft’s change ofjob was announced last monthas an outside investigationinto the SBI continues. The in-vestigation was sparked bytestimony from an agent thatthe SBI’s lab reports preparedfor court didn’t always includeinformation on follow-up teststhat conflicted with earlier re-sults.The testimony came in a

hearing for Greg Taylor, aNorth Carolina man whoserved almost 17 years inprison for murder before be-ing found innocent earlier thisyear. Concerns about the lab’swork led state Attorney Gen-eral Roy Cooper to suspend itsbloodstain work until issuescan be resolved.In the Brown case, Isley

maintained that the man gavea confession detailing the ele-ments of the crime. ButBrown spent years in a treat-ment facility for the mentallydisabled and was never certi-fied as competent to stand tri-al. His attorney said there wasno way he dictated the elabo-rate narrative Isley present-ed.“The confession is a work

of fiction,” said Mike Klinko-sum, a Raleigh attorney whorepresented Brown until hisrelease in 2007. “It’s that sim-ple.”

A message left by the As-sociated Press at a numberlisted for a Mark Isley in SnowCamp was not immediately re-turned.In its report, the News &

Observer also cited question-able work of another agent atthe SBI, Dwight Ransome,who retired earlier this yearwith full benefits despite slip-shod work that led to a recordwrong-conviction settlement.He had been moved out of in-vestigations following the $3.9million settlement with a for-mer death row inmate whowas acquitted after a secondtrial in 2004.Cooper said the agency

learned from Ransome’s mis-takes in the case of Alan Gell,whose acquittal also led to areprimand of prosecutors inthe case.“It took (litigation) for peo-

ple in the bureau to recognizesome of the mistakes thatwere made by this particularagent,” Cooper said.Another case Ransome in-

vestigated is the subject of alawsuit, but neither the SBInor Ransome are named in it.The family of Stacey Pol-

lard of Greenville is suing Pol-lard’s ex-wife in a wrongfuldeath lawsuit. Ransome con-ducted the investigation intoPollard’s death and never

questioned Michelle Pollard’schanging statements aboutthe day her husband died inthe family’s swimming pool orabout her assertion that thecouple had a perfect mar-riage.In that case, Ransome nev-

er visited the crime scene,never examined the wife’sphone records and waited 18months to talk to the couple’sneighbors, the newspaper re-ported.David Sutton, the Pollard

family’s lawyer, quizzed Ran-some about that during thecivil lawsuit against MichellePollard: “Now, given that herhusband had just been pulleddead from the pool a few min-utes earlier, and she told youthey had a perfect marriage,did this statement in any waycause you any concern orpause to think?”“No,” Ransome replied.“Why not?” Pollard asked.“Why would it?” Ransome

said.The investigation was

closed in January 2009 with nocharges. The civil lawsuitagainst Michelle Pollard iscontinuing.Cooper declined to com-

ment on the Pollard case.No phone listing could be

found for Ransome to obtaincomment.

NC schools to begin new sex ed programs this fallASHEVILLE (AP) — North

Carolina teachers are prepar-ing for new sex educationclasses that will give studentsmore information about con-traceptives than in previousyears.The Asheville Citizen-

Times reported Sunday thatthe 2009 Healthy Youth Actrequires schools to give stu-dents access to more informa-tion on sexually transmitteddiseases and sexual assault aspart of a revised sex-educa-tion program.The law marks a change

from an abstinence-only poli-cy previously used to guideschools’ sex ed classes.State Rep. Susan Fisher

helped push through the leg-islation. The Buncombe De-mocrat says students will stillbe taught that abstinence isthe best defense against sex-ually transmitted diseases,but they also will be taughthow to protect themselves.The goal is to reduce teen

pregnancy and boost gradua-tion rates.

MURFREESBORO, Tenn.(AP) — Muslims trying tobuild houses of worship in thenation’s heartland, far fromthe heated fight in New Yorkover plans for a mosque nearground zero, are running intoopponents even more hostileand aggressive.Foes of proposed mosques

have deployed dogs to intimi-date Muslims holding prayerservices and spray painted“Not Welcome” on a construc-tion sign, then later ripped itapart.The 13-story, $100 million

Islamic center that could soonrise two blocks from the siteof the Sept. 11 attacks woulddwarf the proposals else-where, yet the smaller proj-ects in local communities arestoking a sharper kind of fearand anger than has showed upin New York.In the Nashville suburb of

Murfreesboro, opponents of anew Islamic center say theybelieve the mosque will bemore than a place of prayer.They are afraid the 15-acresite that was once farmlandwill be turned into a terroristtraining ground for Muslimmilitants bent on overthrow-ing the U.S. government.“They are not a religion.

They are a political, militaris-tic group,” said Bob Shelton,a 76-year-old retiree who livesin the area.Shelton was among sever-

al hundred demonstrators re-cently who wore “Vote for Je-sus” T-shirts and carried signsthat said: “No Sharia law forUSA!,” referring to the Islam-ic code of law. Others tooktheir opposition further, spraypainting the sign announcingthe “Future site of the Islam-ic Center of Murfreesboro”and tearing it up.In Temecula, Calif., oppo-

nents brought dogs to protesta proposed 25,000-square-footmosque that would sit on fouracres next to a Baptist church.Opponents worry it will turnthe town into a haven for Is-lamic extremists, but mosqueleaders say they are peacefuland just need more room toserve members.Islam is a growing faith in

the U.S., though Muslims rep-resent less than 1 percent ofthe country’s population. Tenyears ago, there were about1,200 mosques nationwide.Now there are roughly 1,900,according to Ihsan Bagby,professor of Islamic Studiesat the University of Kentuckyand a researcher on surveysof American mosques.The growth involves Islam-

ic centers expanding to ac-commodate more Muslims —as is the case in New York,California and Tennessee —as well as mosques croppingup in smaller, more isolatedcommunities, Bagby said.A 2007 survey of Muslim

Americans by the Pew Re-search Center found that 39percent of adult Muslims liv-ing in the United States wereimmigrants who had comehere since 1990.“In every religious com-

munity, one of the things thathas happened over the courseof immigration is that peopleget settled and eventuallybuild something that says,‘We’re here! We’re not justcamping,’ ” said Diana Eck, aprofessor of Comparative Re-ligion at the Harvard Univer-sity. “In part, that’s becausethose communities have putdown roots in America andmade this their home.”Before the demonstration

in Murfreesboro, a fundrais-er was held for the new com-munity center. Children be-hind a folding table sold home-made wooden plaques, doorhangers and small servingtrays decorated with glitterand messages like, “Peace,” “I

love being a Muslim” and“Freedom of Religion.”Mosque leader Essam

Fathy, who helped plan thenew building in Murfreesboro,has lived there for 30 years.“I didn’t think people would

try that hard to oppose some-thing that’s in the Constitu-tion,” he said. “The Islamiccenter has been here since theearly ’80s, 12 years in this lo-

cation. There’s nothing differ-ent now except it’s going to bea little bigger.”Bagby said that hasn’t

stopped foes from becomingmore virulent. “It was therebefore, but it didn’t have asmuch traction. The largerpublic never embraced it,” hesaid. “The level of anger, thelevel of hostility is much high-er in the last few years.”

bigger-ticket items,” HouseMinority Leader Paul Stam, R-Wake.In April, the division rec-

ommended eliminating 25 ofthe state’s 72 aircraft andclosing five hangars, pointingout half the planes flew lessthan 100 hours a year. Law-makers ordered at least 10aircraft be sold and leases ontwo hangars ended, saving$1.5 million up front and$800,000 annually. But that’sstill millions less than whatthe division said could havebeen saved.Then-State Bureau of In-

vestigation Director RobinPendergraft told the oversightcommittee the agency neededits twin-engine airplane to

transport prisoners and sendagents out to crime scenes.The division issued a follow-up report with data showingthe plane didn’t fly 84 percentof the time and was used twiceas often for conference, train-ing and meeting transporta-tion as it was for escortingprisoners. Still, the SBI planewasn’t eliminated in thisyear’s final budget.Criticism of the group’s

work has largely come fromthose being scrutinized.“They’ll say whatever is

necessary to get the parties tobelieve something, but wehave to have evidence,” Tur-cotte said.Sen. Joe Sam Queen is the

division’s strongest critic. Hewas first spurred by a 2008 re-port on agricultural researchstations that recommendedclosing one in his hometownof Waynesville. He said the di-

vision’s reports have only ledto more confusion among law-makers. The Legislaturewould be better served evalu-ating agencies by using out-side consultants, he said.“I think the division’s an

embarrassment to the Gener-al Assembly,” said Queen, D-Haywood, who offered a budg-et amendment last year to doaway with the division. “Ihaven’t found a report that’sworth the paper it’s printedon.”Leone, from the division’s

Virginia counterpart, said thework requires division lead-ers to have thick skin. The keyto long-term success, he said,is to be fair and work with in-tegrity: “The first two or threeyears of an organization, youhave to build up trust with theLegislature that you can pro-vide good results and sav-ings.”

Thanks for support,well-wishes for future

“Thank you” isn’t nearly enough to ex-press my appreciation for the loyalty andsupport that my patients, and the medicalcommunity of Rowan County, have shown meduring my 30 years of practice in Salisbury.We were attracted by the wonderful people,the beautiful and dynamic community, andespecially by my partners at Salisbury Clinicfor Women, Doctors Green, Goodwin, Paradaand Thurston. Six years ago I stopped deliv-ering babies, and concentrated on practicinggynecology, developing advanced surgicaltechniques, and I have enjoyed working withan excellent medical family.

Recently, Novant Medical Group down-sized the practice, now known as CarolinaWomen’s Health Associates. Dr. Scott Stahleand I will no longer be able to serve our pa-tients there, effective immediately. We sin-cerely regret the hardship and distress thishas placed on so many of our patients.

I deeply appreciate the support, friend-ship and loyalty that my patients and the en-tire medical community have shown me. Theoutpouring of love and well-wishes has beenoverwhelming, and, with the help of greatmedical friends, I am making every effort toresume my gynecology practice in a new set-ting, caring for my very special patients andfriends. I look forward to serving you againvery soon.

Thank you all for everything.— Dr. B. David Hall

What should ‘no kill’philosophy mean?’

There is only one legitimate definition of a“no kill” animal shelter or community.

It’s a community where: Healthy dogs andcats are saved; treatable dogs and cats aresaved; and, healthy and treatable feral catsare saved.

Some shelters call themselves no kill ifthey save all healthy dogs and cats. Saving allhealthy dogs and cats is the first step towardachieving a no kill community, not the endgoal. Can a shelter or community really justi-fy killing animals with treatable conditions ifit takes the title “no kill community”? It can-

not.Others claim that no kill is achieved when

healthy, as well as sick and injured but treat-able dogs and cats are saved. The definitionis out of touch with the sentiment of millionsof cat lovers who feed alley cats in their com-munities. If healthy feral cats are still beingkilled en masse, a No Kill community is notachieved.

In short, neither of these positions is ethi-cally defensible. The no kill movement’sbreak with traditional sheltering is less aboutsaving “pet” dogs and cats and more aboutfocusing on the individual animal. No kill ispremised on — in fact demands — fundamen-tal fairness to individual animals.

Implicit within the No Kill philosophy isthe understanding that some animals, such asthose who are irremediably suffering orhopelessly ill, will be killed for reasons ofmercy. That much we can all accept. We canalso accept that dogs who are aggressivewith a poor prognosis for rehabilitation are apublic safety risk who cannot be adopted.

But that is all we can accept.The only animals dying in a no kill com-

munity are dogs and cats who are irremedia-bly suffering, are sick or injured with a pooror grave prognosis for rehabilitation and vi-cious dogs with a poor prognosis.

Nothing short of that is acceptable. Andnothing less will do.

“The truth shall make you free”OPINION

L E T T E R S T O T H E E D I T O R

The World Cup explosions arrived not solong after a date of withdrawal was setfor the war in the Middle East. Just as

the problem seemed almost done with, wewere once again reminded that terrorism has-n’t been completely solved by years of bomb-ing and military occupation alone. And now,documents revealing our supposed “failures”are making some wonder: Is Congress reallymaking a good decision in sending even moremoney into a seemingly irresolvable war?

Death, fighting, and terrorists are all weseem to hear of Afghanistan. But is violenceall there is in that beleaguered nation? In theyears in which we put the area in our backseat, positive changes have actually takenplace practically under our noses. Accordingto author Greg Mortenson, head of the non-profit Central Asia Institute and builder ofschools in Pakistan and Afghanistan, in 2000,only 800,000 of Afghanistan’s impoverished

children were in school;by 2009, 8.4 million werein attendance, roughlyone-fourth of them girls.The country has also es-tablished a road-buildingproject that was in 2009about 60 percent com-plete. If that’s what can beaccomplished by a combi-nation of local individuals,some private non-Afghanisupport, and the country’sgovernment in a timewhen the country receivedlittle nonmilitary atten-tion, what would we

achieve with just a little deliberate, concen-trated effort?

Perhaps we now need to think less aboutwaging war and more about helping civilians.Service was our goal, after all — freeing inno-cent people from terror and oppression.Afghanistan is not made up of terrorists; it ismostly poor, village-dwelling or nomadic peo-ple who want nothing more than to give theirchildren a better future. The real problem isn’tmilitancy or fundamentalism; it’s lack of op-portunity, combined with a history of conflictwith other, more powerful countries. Whenpeople have little access to education or de-cent living conditions, and little knowledge ofthe outside world beyond destructive waves oftanks and bombs destroying their land, homesand families, they are much more likely to tol-erate, if not endorse, fellow countrymen whotell them they must either fight or resignthemselves and their children to living in sup-pression.

Part of the problem of terrorism — the partwe can do something about — is pretty simple:not all parts of the world are equal in terms ofgeography and natural resources. When we re-alize this, we are better able to understandwhy tensions so easily develop between a rich,influential nation like the United States andpoorer nations like Afghanistan — and whatwe can do to ease those tensions. Before we letthe region’s associations with terrorism colorour attitudes, and discouragement or indiffer-ence mark our actions, let’s consider that driv-ing out terrorists is only part of the war on ter-ror. If we want lasting security, we need toleave a legacy of peace and hope, not destruc-tion. The region needs rescuing, but fromhelplessness and hopelessness, not just terror.If we help ensure that its people do not need tolive without hope for a future, and if we buildrelationships with them to accomplish thatgoal, we will bring both parties more satisfac-tion than if we dropped a million bombs.

You may point out that we can never solveboth another nation’s problems and ours, butthat isn’t the point. We don’t have to — givenresources, they are willing and able to dothings themselves. As individuals and a nation,we have the power to give them opportunityby offering assistance. We can’t stop themfrom hating us or transform their mountainsand deserts into valleys, but we can treat themwith respect, honor our promises to rebuildwhat we have destroyed, and ask input fromthe region’s true leaders — its common people.We can give humanitarian aid through mis-sions and charities and honor Jesus’ commandto “Love one another as I have loved you”(John 15:22) by showing compassion and con-cern through actions.

We are called to act responsibly, doing whatwe can to promote peace and equality. Moreimportant than our perceptions of others is theimage we give of ourselves.

That doesn’t mean we have to abandon ourmilitary efforts. According to AssociatedPress reporter Kathy Gannon, the people ofKabul danced in the streets after we drove theTaliban from the city. However, we need toconsider the common people — those whowatch the bombs being dropped and whoselives will be left unchanged, if not worse — ifwe don’t do something more than simply fightterrorists and leave. We need to recognizeour true enemy as apathy and ignorance, notsome individual like Osama bin Laden. In do-ing so we can gain the respect, trust, andeven friendship of people we once thoughtwere our enemies.

Waging peacein Afghanistan

Puttingpressureon the TVARALEIGH — Not too long

ago, a writer for the conser-vative John Locke Founda-

tion wrote that state AttorneyGeneral Roy Cooper had invested$7.7 million in a legal fight againstthe Tennessee Valley Authority“without much to show for it.”

That conclusionfollowed a ruling bythe 4th U.S.CircuitCourt of Appealsthat reversed a low-er court decisionrequiring the TVAto speed up the in-stallation of pollu-tion control devicesat four TVA coal-fired power plants.

The lower courtjudge decided that

TVA’s pollution-belching powerplants posed a public nuisance asthat air drifts eastward into NorthCarolina. The case included testi-mony by a medical expert who es-timated that 100 fewer prematurerespiratory and heart-disease re-lated deaths a year would result ifpollution controls were put inplace.

A three-member panel of theappeals court wasn’t swayed. Itruled that a patchwork of clean airstandards would prevail if the low-er court decision stood.

“In fact, emissions have beenextensively regulated nationwideby the Clear Air Act for fourdecades,” Judge Harvey Wilkin-son III wrote for the court.

The conclusion that Cooper andthe state of North Carolina havelittle to show for the legal fight ig-nores one basic fact — the fat ladyhasn’t sung. Despite the unani-mous opinion from the most con-servative federal appellate courtin the country, Cooper could ap-peal; the U.S. Supreme Court couldhear the case.

The state may yet win.Wilkinson and his colleagues

on the 4th Circuit ignored that apatchwork of standards alreadyprevails when it comes to theTVA.

Last year, a group called theEnvironmental Integrity Projectreleased a report concluding thatTVA dodges standards met by oth-er utilities by using its status as aspecial federal corporation.

The report said that TVA hasinvoked federal sovereign immu-nity to avoid environmentalpenalties and hasn’t faced thesame pressure as other utilities toreduce pollution.

Robert Dreher of Defendersof Wildlife wrote that TVA“should not be able to underminethe integrity of the legal processby claiming immunity to the en-forcement of environmental laws.No corporation or agency shouldbe above the law, especially at theexpense of the environmentalwell-being of our citizens, wildlifeand waters.”

It’s not just environmentalistswho have criticized the disparatetreatment.

Over a decade ago, the conser-vative Heritage Foundation wrotethat TVA should be “subject tothe same federal laws and over-sight that (has) covered privateutilities for decades.”

Interestingly enough, TVA an-nounced that it wouldn’t fight arecent $11.5 million fine imposedby the state of Tennessee for itsmassive Kingston coal-sludgespill. Publicity is a funny thing,isn’t it?

But maybe North Carolinadoes lose its court fight.

If so, TVA and the executiveswho run it are still under morescrutiny and face more publicpressure that ever to clean uptheir act.

If the lawsuit has helped cre-ate some of that public pressure,it’s still a win.

THERIOT, La. (AP) —Docked boats were bedeckedwith fluttering red, white andblue streamers and rainbowsof balloons in a bayou-coun-try, pre-shrimp season tradi-tion known as the “Blessing ofthe Boats.”On the menu? Heaping

trays of barbecued chicken,smoked sausage and potatosalad — but no crabs orshrimp.Blame the BP oil spill. The

company has plugged the leakand announced Sunday thatcement sealing the busted oilwell in the Gulf of Mexico hadhardened, clearing the pathfor the final phase of drillinga relief well.The future isn’t so clear for

fishermen and their familiesseeking blessings for a boun-tiful harvest and divine pro-tection from the water’s dan-gers. They are wondering ifthe waters will ever be thesame again.“I’ve had ice chests of

shrimp in my freezer all mylife,” said Dita Dehart, 70, alifelong area resident who wasworking on desserts in a backroom of St. Andrew’s Episco-pal Church, which has hostedthe blessing on Bayou Dularge

for more than 50 years. “Ihave none now.”Fishermen have suffered

through the ever-changingscenario of on-again, off-againclosures and a murky futureever since the DeepwaterHorizon rig exploded April 20,killing 11 workers. BP saidSunday it may soon begindrilling the final 100 feet of arelief well.

Once the relief well inter-sects the broken well, moremud and cement will bepumped in for the “bottomkill” meant to seal the well forgood.However, the plugging of

the well hasn’t ended the un-certainty: Yes, the state tech-nically set next Monday, Aug.16 as the opening for a fallshrimp season along the coast,

but some waters will likely re-main closed as federal author-ities test the safety of theseafood.“I got a boat that’s ready,”

said Ravin Lacoste, 57. “Butwe don’t know what’s going toopen up.”“It’s open, it’s closed, it’s

open it’s closed,” said CharlesLovell Jr., before he clam-bered aboard his shrimp boatto ferry the Rev. Jervis Burnsup and down the bayou.Burns first conducted a

service for about 50 fisher-men, their families and otherparishioners of St. Andrews.The congregation gatheredaround him on the banks orwatched from about a dozenshrimp and oyster boats, sher-iff’s patrol boats and othervessels that sat across a two-lane road from the church —a long, pitch-roofed white met-al building nestled betweentwo sprawling oaks, drapedwith Spanish moss.Then he climbed aboard

Lovell’s shrimp boat to lead awater parade, during which hewould bless other vesselsdocked along the bayou andthen toss out a wreath memo-rializing fishermen who havedied on the waters.

KABUL, Afghanistan (AP)— One gave up a lucrativepractice to give free dentalcare to children who had nev-er seen a toothbrush. Othershad devoted whole decades oftheir lives to helping theAfghan people through warand deprivation.The years of service end-

ed in a hail of bullets in a re-mote valley of a land thatmembers of the medical teamhad learned to love.The bodies of the 10 slain

volunteers — six Americans,two Afghans, a German and aBriton — were flown Sundayback to Kabul by helicopter,even as friends and family bit-terly rejected Taliban claimsthe group had tried to convertAfghans to Christianity.Also flown to the capital

was the lone survivor of theattack, an Afghan driver whosaid he was spared becausehe was a Muslim and recitedIslamic holy verses as hebegged for his life. The Inter-national Assistance Mission,which organized the trip, saidthe driver had been a trustedemployee with four years ofservice.Police said they don’t know

if he is a witness or an accom-plice in the killings, claimedby the Taliban.

Friends: Doctorsweren’t proselytizingDENVER (AP) — Mem-

bers of a medical teamgunned down in Afghanistanbrought some of the firsttoothbrushes and eyeglassesvillagers had ever seen andspent no time talking aboutreligion as they providedmedical care, friends and aidorganizations said Sunday.Dr. Thomas Grams, 51,

quit his dental practice in Du-rango, Colo., four years agoto work full-time giving im-poverished children free den-tal care in Nepal andAfghanistan, said Katy Shawof Global Dental Relief, aDenver-based group thatsends teams of dentistsaround the globe. He waskilled Thursday, Shaw said,along with five other Ameri-cans, two Afghans, one Ger-man and a Briton.“The kids had never seen

toothbrushes, and Tombrought thousands of them,”said Khris Nedam, head ofthe Kids 4 Afghan Kids inLivonia, Mich., which buildsschools and wells inAfghanistan. “He trainedthem how to brush theirteeth, and you should’ve seenthe way they smiled afterthey learned to brush theirteeth.”The team was attacked af-

ter a two-week mission in theremote Parun valley of Nuris-tan province, about 160 miles(260 kilometers) north ofKabul. Their bullet-riddledbodies were found Friday,and were returned to KabulSunday aboard helicopters.The families of the six

Americans were formally no-

tified of their deaths afterU.S. officials confirmed theiridentities, said Caitlin Hay-den, a spokeswoman for theembassy.

Former HP CEO Hurdsettles with sexualharassment accuserSAN FRANCISCO (AP) —

Ousted Hewlett-Packard Co.CEO Mark Hurd has settledallegations of sexual harass-ment lodged against him by afemale contract worker forHP, a person with knowledgeof the case told The Associat-ed Press.The harassment accusa-

tion set off a chain of eventsthat led to the discovery of al-legedly falsified expense re-ports for dinners Hurd hadwith the woman and culmi-nated in Hurd’s forced resig-nation Friday from theworld’s largest technologycompany.The person familiar with

the case told the AP late Sat-uday that Hurd agreed to paythe woman but would not re-veal the size of the payment.The deal was reached Thurs-day, a day before Hurd’s res-ignation. The settlement wasbetween Hurd and his accus-er and did not involve a pay-ment from HP, this personsaid.This person, who spoke on

a condition of anonymity, wasnot authorized to speak pub-licly about the issue.The nature of the harass-

ment complaint wasn’t clear.Hurd and a lawyer represent-ing the woman said the rela-tionship was not sexual.

2 escapees from Ariz.prison, accomplicemay be in Yellowstone ALBUQUERQUE, N.M.

(AP) — The search for twomen who escaped from a pri-vate Arizona prison and theirsuspected accomplice hasturned to the vast Yellow-stone National Park area af-ter one of the inmates waslinked to a double homicidein New Mexico and efforts tofind them intensified.The U.S. Marshals Service

said Sunday information de-veloped within the past twodays indicates TracyProvince, John McCluskeyand Casslyn Welch may behiding in portions of the parkthat span Montana andWyoming. The agency alsosaid investigators believeProvince has separated fromMcCluskey and Welch.It doesn’t appear any of

the three are expert campersor have wilderness survivalskills, said Thomas Henman,supervisory deputy with theU.S. Marshals Service inPhoenix.“From the start, we be-

lieved these individualswould be staying at camp-grounds and truck stops andother places like that. This

keeps to that pattern,” Hen-man said. He added authori-ties believe the three mightbe sticking to back roads andsmaller state highways.Federal investigators in

Montana and Wyoming andlaw enforcement authoritieswith the National Park Serv-ice are working with investi-gators from Arizona to followleads in the Yellowstonearea.

The buzz about Tebow

WATKINS GLEN, N.Y. — Juan PabloMontoya finally had a race without a mis-take, and he proved invincible.The hard-driving Colombian erased

113 races of futility Sunday, winning aduel with Marcos Ambrose and theSprint Cup race at Watkins Glen Inter-national.“It’s about time,” Montoya said after

celebrating with his crew in VictoryLane. “We’ve lost a lot of them, gaveaway a lot of them. It gets frustrating,everybody fighting. There’s so manythings I have to learn. I still make a lotof mistakes. It’s experience. We’ve justgot to learn from it.”Frustration mounted when crew chief

Brian Pattie’s pit strategy backfired atthe previous two races. A late four-tirecall likely cost Montoya a win at theBrickyard 400, and he finished 16th aweek ago at Pocono after starting sec-ond, another questionable pit call the cul-prit that led to harsh words over the ra-dio.A prerace talk at Watkins Glen with

team co-owner Chip Ganassi helped clearthe air. Montoya went out, withstood re-peated stalking and challenges from Am-brose and won going away.Montoya led 74 of 90 laps and beat

Kurt Busch to the line by nearly 5 sec-onds for his second career victory, theother coming on NASCAR’s other roadcourse at Sonoma in 2007, 113 races ago.Montoya gave Earnhardt Ganassi racingjust its third victory of the season.

Ambrose was third, his third straighttop-three finish at Watkins Glen, fol-lowed by AJ Allmendinger and pole-sit-ter Carl Edwards. Jamie McMurray,Tony Stewart, Kyle Busch, Jeff Burtonand Jeff Gordon rounded out the top 10.It was the first career victory for Pat-

tie, who fought back tears after watch-ing the No. 42 take the checkered flag.“It’s huge,” Pattie said. “I still want to

win on an oval. He wants to prove hispoint. The Brickyard was my fault. Hopethis makes up for it. Trophies mean a lot.It’s pretty cool.”Montoya made the Chase for the

Sprint Cup last year, made a strong runearly in the 10-race postseason, and fin-ished eighth in points. His chances of

George C. Knox hobbled gingerly tothe podium, but once he reached hisdestination the World War II veteran’svoice was firm, his words profound.Knox’s athletic peak came in the

late 1940s, nearly a half-century be-fore the glory days of former NorthRowan superstars Shannon Myers andStephanie Cross, but he joins them aspart of the Salisbury-Rowan SportsHall of Fame Class of 2010.Also inducted in the 10th annual cer-

emonies held at the Civic Center onSunday were coaching greats CharlesHellard, Dr. Frank “Dutch” Meyer andDr. Fred Ponder. Knox is well-known as a black pio-

neer in Rowan education and politics,

but his baseball deeds came in an erawithout statistics and standings.Knox fashioned his own crude bats

and balls as a youth and made his firstathletic splash as a 14-year-old. Play-ing with Landis’ “big boys” for the firsttime, he hit a curveball for a ninth-in-ning grand slam at Cooleemee. “I was running hard until they told

me to slow down,” Knox said. “I lookedup and the ball’s going over the wall.”It not only went over the wall, it

cleared a road and landed on a rooftop.Knox was expected to attend Living-

stone after he graduated from AggreyMemorial in Landis, but all Blue Bearswere required to own a blue suit. Whilehe was saving for that wardrobe addi-tion, Pearl Harbor was bombed and theU.S. entered World War II.Knox was the “roughest man” in his

service unit. That meant he got toguard Jackie Robinson in basketball.Knox served with the 614th Tank

Destroyer Battalion in numerous fire-fights in Europe. Most of his friendsdidn’t survive, but Knox returned tobecome a cleanup hitter for North Car-olina A&T teams that won CIAAcrowns in 1947 and 1948. Knox played against Willie Mays

and Henry Aaron and was offered procontracts. Instead, he began his teach-ing career at Kannapolis’ Carver High.Knox has accepted dozens of hu-

manitarian awards, but Sunday’s en-shrinement was the first acknowl-edgement of his athletic prowess sincehe entered the N.C. A&T Sports Hallof Fame in 1986.

DENVER — Tim Tebow was all the buzzSaturday night at the Denver Broncos’ prac-tice.The rookie quarterback stood out not only

for his play at practice but for his shavedlocks, the top of his head completely shearedto leave a ring of hair that made him look likea monk.The pranks the veterans will play.Tebow and the other rookies had their

heads decorated with wacky haircuts beforethe workout and they had to show them offduring warm-ups when they couldn’t hide un-derneath their helmets.“I think all the rookies had a good time with

it,” Tebow said. “It was something to giveeverybody a laugh, something also to build

chemistry.”Tebow wasn’t the only one to get a bad hair-

cut. Receiver Eric Decker was outfitted withlines carved into his ’do and left guard ZaneBeadles sported a reverse Mohawk.Offensive lineman Eric Olsen was able to

save his long, flowing dirty blond locks in theback, but he’s now bald on top, and tight endNathan Overbay had half a haircut, his leftside sheared and his right side left alone.Tebow’s new look was hard to miss, espe-

cially with his thick facial hair. When his im-age was shown on the big screen at InvescoField before practice, the crowd broke intolaughter.He said linebacker Wesley Woodyard was

the barber responsible for his cut, taking outsome of his college frustrations with the ra-

ATLANTA — David Rossmade themost of arare startSunday.

Ross hit a two-run homerand Derek Lowe pitched intothe sixth inning before leav-ing with an injury, leadingthe Atlanta Braves to a 6-3victory over the San Francis-co Giants.The Braves have All-Star

catcher Brian McCann, soRoss doesn’t play much. Buthe is hitting .284 with 20 RBIsin 37 games, 24 starts, thisseason. He also walked andscored Atlanta’s final run onMelky Cabrera’s single in theeighth.“I finally ran into one,”

Ross said of his first homerof the season, a drive to leftduring Atlanta’s three-runsecond. “Guys were givingme a (hard time) so I got thatoff my chest, finally. Ithought I was getting too old,that I didn’t have any popanymore.”Lowe (11-9) was bothered

by cramping in his ham-string. The right-hander al-lowed two runs and five hitsin 51⁄3 innings.Lowe said he also had

some cramps in his right armin the fourth inning but hewould not miss his next start.“The whole right leg was

cramping,” he said.Four relievers combined

to finish up, with TakashiSaito tossing a scorelessninth for his first save of theseason.Omar Infante hit a solo

homer for Atlanta, which wonthree of four in the series andhas won four of five overall.The NL East-leading Bravesalso improved their majorleague-best home record to39-15 and maintained a two-game lead over Philadelphia,which beat the New YorkMets 6-5.Jonathan Sanchez (8-7)

pitched four innings for theGiants, yielding four runsand five hits. The left-handerwas coming off a strong per-formance against Colorado,when he threw six effectiveinnings in a 10-0 victory.The full-count pitch to

Ross “was a sinker away,”Sanchez said. “He killed it.That’s baseball. You can’t ex-pect to win all the games.”Infante made it 4-1 with a

drive to left in the fourth forhis third homer.Alex Gonzalez also drove

in a run with a sacrifice flyand Melky Cabrera had anRBI single for Atlanta, whichfinished with 12 hits. Cabrerawent 3 for 5.Juan Uribe hit an RBI dou-

ble for the Giants, and TravisIshikawa hit a homer.

CANTON, Ohio — TerrellOwens chat-ted amiablywith his for-mer Cow-boys team-

mates. Chad Ochocinco woregold shoes for his few plays.Otherwise, the Cincinnati

Bengals barely were notice-able Sunday night as Dallaswon 16-7 in the Hall of Famegame.In a game that might have

made Class of 2010 inducteesEmmitt Smith and Jerry Ricewince, the offenses generallysputtered and there wereeight sacks. Neither teamcould get going with the ballin a sloppy affair. Clearly,none of the aura of the NFL’scareer leaders in rushing andreceiving rubbed off.At least some of Saturday’s

other inductees — the oneswho played defense, DickLeBeau, John Randle andRickey Jackson — could ap-preciate the lack of scoringand the takeaways. Dallaspicked off three passes and re-covered a fumble; Cincinnatialso recovered a fumble.Nobody could be im-

pressed by the slew of penal-ties, 16 overall, 12 by Cincin-nati for 90 yards. Then again,it was the preseason opener.The Cowboys hope this is

the opening step, small as itwas, toward becoming thefirst team to play in a SuperBowl in its home stadium.That goal will take months be-fore it can be achieved, ofcourse, and the most memo-rable item this weekend forthem will remain Smith’s en-try into the Hall of Fame.“Having Emmitt inducted

into the Hall of Fame is spe-cial,” All-Pro linebacker De-Marcus Ware said.

NEWPORT, Wales — Europe cap-tain Colin Montgomerie is consider-ing handing a Ryder Cup wild card toBernhard Langer, even though theGerman is now on the ChampionsTour.The 53-year-old Langer played the

last of his 10 Ryder Cups at The Bel-fry in 2002.In the last three weeks he has won

both the Senior British Open and theU.S. Senior Open. Montgomerie be-lieves his vast Cup experience couldbe invaluable to a Europe team thatmight include at least four rookies.“I would not rule out picking Bern-

hard,” Montgomerie said. “I’m notruling out anybody, especially some-one who has performed to that degreeand is in the form of his life.”Langer said Sunday at the 3M

Championship in suburban Minneapo-lis: “If he wants me on the team Iwould definitely consider it, yes.”Montgomerie said to win the Sen-

ior British at Carnoustie, then traveleight time zones and beat local fa-vorite Fred Couples at the U.S. Sen-ior in Seattle was no mean feat.“He (Langer) said afterward that

he used everything he had learned in

the Ryder Cup to overcome a very vo-cal home support, and I think itwouldn’t be such a dramatic move tohave someone of that age and that ex-perience in the team,” he said.“It wouldn’t be such an out-of-the-

blue pick. I think he’s playing as wellas he ever has and he’s said he is. AndI know through having played withBernhard Langer that he is as good apartner as anyone could ever have.”Montgomerie has another month

before he has to pick his team to playthe United States in Wales on Oct. 1-3, and he may have an experience gapthat could be filled by Langer.Langer used the same logic when

he added Montgomerie to the 2004squad he captained.“He was borderline,” Langer said,

“but I felt he brought a lot of experi-ence and the right spirit into the teamroom, and he played well.”Montgomerie might not have the

services of European No. 1 and worldNo. 3 Lee Westwood, who pulled outof the Bridgestone Invitational aftertwo rounds Friday with a calf injury.The Englishman said he will need atleast six weeks of rest and treatmentbefore he can return to golf.

Langer considered for Ryder Cup

AKRON, Ohio — Hunter Mahantook a big step toward joining the elitein golf on Sunday, winning his firstWorld Golf Championship title to lockup a spot on the U.S. Ryder Cup team.Four shots behind to start the final

round at Firestone, Mahan ran offfive birdies on the front nine to takethe lead, then had three clutch parsaves down the stretch to finish off a6-under 64 and a two-shot victoryover Ryan Palmer.It was the second victory this year

for Mahan, and the $1.4 million heearned moved him to No. 2 in the Ry-der Cup standings with only the PGAChampionship remaining before thetop eight Americans qualifying.The battle for No. 1 was far less in-

spiring.Tiger Woods will remain atop the

world ranking for the 270th consecu-tive week, despite the worst tourna-ment of his career. Woods closed witha 77 to finish at 18-over 298 — hishighest score on the PGA Tour as apro or an amateur — and finished onespot out of last place.That cleared the way for Phil

Mickelson to replace him at No. 1,provided Lefty finished in fourthplace alone. But Mickelson was evenworse. He shot 41 on the front nine,including a three-putt from 4 feet, andshot 78 to tie for 46th.

PGA TourVERONA, N.Y. — Bill Lunde ral-

lied with a 6-under 66 to finish at 17-under 271, holding off J.J. Henry byone stroke to win the Turning StoneResort Championship.The win is the first for Lunde in

his second full season on the PGATour. He vaulted into the lead withsix birdies on the front nine andplayed even par for the last nineholes.Lunde earned a spot in next week’s

PGA Championship at WhistlingStraits with the victory. He also won$720,000 and picked up 250 FedExCup points.

Champions TourBLAINE, Minn. — David Frost

jumped out fast Sunday with a bril-liant front nine and finished with an11-under 61 to earn a record-settingvictory at the 3M Championship.It was the first career Champions

Tour win for Frost, whose 25-under191 was two shots better than the pre-vious tournament scoring record setby R.W. Eaks in 2008. His final-roundscore beat by one the tournament’sprevious lowest round set by DanaQuigley in 2008.Frost also tied the tour record of

25-under for a 54-hole tournamentpreviously set by Loren Roberts atthe 2006 MasterCard Championshipat Hualalai and equaled by BernhardLanger at the 2007 Administaff SmallBusiness Classic. Mark Calcavecchia, tied with Frost

for the lead after 36 holes, shot a 4-under 68, and finished second.

“It’s a blessing,” Knoxsaid. “My mother (MoenaSherrill Knox) would be ex-tremely proud. She went toevery game I ever played in.”It was his mother who

drove him to that breakoutgame in Cooleemee. Knoxnever looked back.Cross was a 2,000-point

scorer at North and one of thebest female basketball play-ers in county history. The 1994graduate still owns four of thetop eight scoring games inNorth annals, including arecord 43. Her senior year sheaveraged 29.2 points a game. Cross scored 1,349 points

for Maryland, leading theTerps in scoring and rebound-ing three times before head-ing to Europe for pro ball.Noting the presence of

Cross and 2008 inductee Tra-cy Connor-Riddick, selectioncommittee chairman and mas-ter of ceremonies WilsonCherry quipped, “The basket-ball ladies we’ve inducted sofar could beat the men.”At Boyden High in the

1950s, Hellard was the kickerfor great Bill Ludwig-coachedfootball teams. As a head coach, he went

144-92 at Salisbury and WestRowan, records that he cred-its to assistants such as BillLee and Ralph Ellis. Before he was a head

coach, Hellard assisted ongreat football and basketballteams. He was equally contentin the background, out of thelimelight. Cherry credited Hellard as

the inspiration for him goingto college. As a youth, Cherryspent a summer working forHellard on SHS athletic fields. “I knew I never wanted to

work that hard ever again,”

Cherry said with a laugh.The last paddling of Cher-

ry’s life came from Ponder,who was inducted as the Ho-race Billings LifetimeAchievement Award recipient.Ponder was a fine college

football player — team cap-tain at N.C. Central — beforemaking his mark in coachingand administration as a mold-er of young men. He coached all sports but

had his greatest success withLivingstone tennis. His teamswon seven division champi-onships and ended Hampton’snine-year winning streak.Zelda Ponder, the late

coach’s wife, accepted thehonor on his behalf.“Sports were a vital part of

Fred’s life,” she said. “Sportswere an avenue that openeddoors not just to provide forhis family but to touch lives.”Meyer died two years ago,

but the “Running Man” whochaired Catawba’s athleticsdepartment from 1969-2005will be long remembered.Meyer coached Catawba

wrestling to prominence,while also starting a programat Livingstone. He also pio-neered the Rowan Regionalcardiac rehab program.“My dad always tried to

take part,” said Wendy Mey-er-Goodwin, who accepted hisplaque. “He loved to coach. Heloved to play. We had a funrun on the day he died, andthat was very appropriate.”Myers won Player of the

Year honors for both footballand baseball his senior year atNorth (1990-91) and was All-SAC in both sports at Lenoir-Rhyne.“My first hero was a broth-

er who was 8 years older, andI grew up playing games withhim and his friends,” Myerssaid. “That made me grow upa little faster and tougher.”Myers had the honor of

hearing coach Don Shula’svoice welcoming him to Mia-mi after he was drafted by theNFL Dolphins in the seventhround in 1995, but a laceratedkidney suffered when he fellon a football jeopardized hiscareer — and his life.He lost 30 percent of that

kidney but came back to shineas a receiver in the CanadianFootball League.Myers is now a tire-chang-

er on Martin Truex Jr.’s crew,but he was allowed to attendyesterday’s induction ratherthan travel to Watkins Glen. After all, you don’t become

The NBA notebook ...UNCASVILLE, Conn. —

Ray Allen says there is roomin Boston for the Big Dieseland the Big Three.The Celtics guard, speak-

ing Saturday before a chari-ty basketball game in Con-necticut, said he believesShaquille O’Neal is a good fitin Boston’s quest to repeatas Eastern Conferencechampion.The 7-foot-1, 325-pound

center signed a two-yearcontract worth about $3 mil-lion on Wednesday.“It’s definitely interesting

to me, because I think he canhelp us,” Allen said. “One ofour bad traits this past yearwas offensive reboundingand rebounding in general,and he’s a guy that takes upa lot of space, so I definitelythink he can help us.”Allen said he’s looking

forward to the battles withLeBron James and Miami,and likes being in the under-dog role, rather than theteam with the bulls-eye onits back.“It was hard in ’08 when

everyone gave us the trophyevery corner that weturned,” he said.

MORE SHAQBill Reynolds of the Provi-

dence Journal writes ...The good news is that

Shaquille O’Neal is headedto the Boston Celtics.The bad news is that it’s

Shaq on fumes, Shaq at theend of the trail, the Shaqwho can’t move, can’t guardanyone, and is only a faintreminder of the dominant,Hall of Fame-to-be player heonce was.The better news?The Celtics aren’t looking

for him to be what he oncewas.They are looking for him

to be (1) an insurance policyuntil Kendrick Perkinscomes back from knee sur-

gery, and (2) a very bigbody off the bench.He is 38 now, and his glo-

ry days are clearly in thepast. Last year for the Cava-liers, he was still effectivein the low block, where hisimmense size could stilloverpower people, but hewas painfully slow and plod-ding, and when he got theball everything seemed tostop. He also remains a lia-bility from the free-throwline.So it’s all about lowered

expectations now. But forall his oversized personalityand presence, all the the-ater that seems to followhim around like an after-noon shadow, O’Neal is nofool. He knows he’s notcoming to the Celtics to bethe man. He’s coming to bea part, albeit a very highprofile one.But he wants to play for

a winner, and the Celticsare a perfect fit, an agingteam that wants one moretitle before it’s all blown upand sent along its way. Hewill arrive with the forcefield that always surroundshim. Shaq is many things,but low profile isn’t one ofthem.The other day he was

quoted as saying, “Worstcomes to worst, I’ll be adoctor, and do speaking en-gagements and talk to chil-dren and run for sheriff inthis town or the next townover.”Say what?No matter.He will help the Celtics.All the theater that

comes with him is extra.

TORONTO — The Blue Jays’ BrandonMorrow lost a no-hit bid with two outs inthe ninth inning on a single by Evan Longo-ria, then stuck out his 17th batter of thegame to finish off a 1-0 victory over theTampa Bay Rays on Sunday.The three-game sweep was crippling for

the Rays, who have lost a season-high fivestraight after briefly moving ahead of theNew York Yankees in the AL East earlierin the week.Vernon Wells drove in the only run be-

fore leaving with a dislocated toe, whichhappened when he made a leaping catchagainst the wall in the sixth inning to pre-serve Morrow’s no-hit bid.The Rays came close to being involved

in their fourth no-hitter of the season, whichwould be a record for the modern era. MattGarza threw the first no-hitter in Rays his-tory against Detroit on July 26, and TampaBay was on the short end against Arizona’sEdwin Jackson on June 26 and Oakland’sDallas Braden on May 9, when he finishedoff a perfect game.Dave Stieb threw the only no-hitter for

the Blue Jays on Sept. 2, 1990, at Cleveland.The club record for strikeouts in a game is18, set by Roger Clemens on Aug. 25, 1998.

Yankees 7, Red Sox 2 NEW YORK — Derek Jeter passed Babe

coming the fourth player to hit at least 25in each of his first eight big league seasons,and Lance Berkman won over Yankees fanswith two doubles — and not hitting Alex Ro-driguez again. Rodriguez was back in thelineup a day after he was struck on his leftleg by Berkman’s BP grounder.

Dodgers dump veteran LOS ANGELES (AP) — Outfielder Garret Anderson was

designated for assignment on Sunday by the Los AngelesDodgers, who purchased the contract of outfielder-firstbaseman Jay Gibbons from Triple-A Albuquerque.

Anderson, who turned 38 years old on June 30, bat-ted .181 in 80 games with two homers and 12 RBIs aftersigning with the club as a free agent in March. The three-time All-Star, who was used primarily as a backup outfield-er and left-handed pinch-hitter, was in his 17th big leagueseason. He spent last season with Atlanta after the An-gels chose not to re-sign him.

Anderson played his first 2,013 games with the Angelsand holds their franchise records in every major offensivecategory except home runs. He had the biggest hit in An-gels history, a tiebreaking three-run double in game 7 ofthe 2002 World Series against San Francisco, and wasthe MVP of the 2003 All-Star game as well as the HomeRun Derby champ that year.

“Gibbons probably all year long has been this guy pro-ducing down there, and Garret has been inconsistent here,”manager Joe Torre said. “As tough as this was to do forme, because of how I respect this guy’s career and re-spect him as a person, we just felt we wanted to try some-thing different. He took it obviously with a great deal ofclass. He said: ’Thanks for the opportunity.’ ”

Sudoku/United Feature Syndicate

10B • MONDAY, AUGUST 9, 2010 C O M I C S SALISBURY POST

BY PHILLIP ALDERUnited Feature Syndicate

When you play in a suitcontract with a side suitthat needs to be establishedand cashed, it is usuallyright to play on the side suitbefore drawing all or any ofthe missing trumps. Thatwas true in today’s deal.In a team-of-four match,

both Souths were in fourspades. The Wests led the club

queen. After winning with his

ace, how should each de-clarer have continued?If you were North, do not

even think about rebiddingtwo clubs (or two dia-monds) with that hand.With a minimum and a

singleton, raise partner’smajor.South for the losing team

immediately played a spadeto the king.

Yes, the 5-0 trump breakwas very unlucky, but it wasstill the wrong play becauseit burnt up a dummy entry fartoo soon.

Double-dummy, declarercould have survived, but heturned to diamonds.

However, West won withhis ace and gave his partnera diamond ruff. When East exited accu-

rately with the spade nine,the contract was unmakable.If South had won the first

trump trick in his hand andplayed on diamonds, he couldhave survived. If the defenders took a di-

amond ruff, declarer couldplay a spade to dummy’s kingand lead winning diamondsthrough East. When he ruffed, declarer

would overruff, return todummy with a trump, and en-joy the remaining diamondwinners.However, the second

South made the best play: Heled the diamond jack at tricktwo. West won (ducking isn’t

better) and gave East theruff. But declarer then used the

diamonds as just described.

SALISBURY POST T V / H O R O S C O P E MONDAY, AUGUST 9, 2010 • 11B

Monday, Aug. 9The probabilities for success look strong for you in the yearahead, in two areas you consider to be extremely important.The first is your work or career and the second involvesyour social affairs. You’ll be enriched in both of them.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Unless you are a self-made million-aire, don’t try to tell others how to mange their resources.You might mean well, but what you’re advising them couldlead to a losing experience.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — It’ll be important to rememberthat giving and taking is a two-way street. Be just as enthu-siastic about lending what you can as you are about receiv-ing loans from others.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — If someone hires you for a specif-ic job, make sure the terms are clearly laid out and under-stood by all parties involved. If either you or they don’t un-derstand what’s expected, unfairness could be claimed.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — Don’t put too much stock in thepromises of braggarts or hotshots. What they have to offermight merely be something they only wish they had or couldproduce.

Sagittarius (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — It’s going to take a lot morethen your charm and good looks to get you by the challengesof others, especially in career situations. Be able to producewhat you claim you can.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Nothing you say is likely to getpast listeners without scrutiny. If you want your views tobe accepted, have the facts ready to back up everything youclaim.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — Be extremely careful in yourbookkeeping, so that mistakes aren’t able to sneak in andwreak havoc with your affairs. Later, when it matters, yourbooks might show a deficit instead of a profit.

Pisces (Feb. 20-March 20) — You’re likely to be all on yourown, so be prepared. People who usually are there for youmight not be in a position to help, just when you need themthe most.

Aries (March 21-April 19) — Get involved if you believe it tobe necessary, but make sure you are doing so for the rightreasons, such as helping someone who is getting picked onjust because s/he is the underdog.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) — Practice moderations in all things,and you won’t get in trouble. Indulging in excesses for anyreason will result in problems, if not now, then down theline.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) — There’s a good chance you’llmake things harder on yourself by thinking everyone butyou is getting all breaks. If you knew their problems, youwouldn’t want to switch places.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) — Braggarts are the type of peo-ple you find to be extremely unappealing, yet you could be-come one of them if you’re not careful. Be humble in thetelling of your exploits.

Finding alternatives to statinsDear Dr. Gott: I would ap-

preciate your advice. I am a72-year-old Caucasian femalewith treated high blood pres-sure and high cholesterol(362)/triglycerides (403). Us-

ing a statindrug, I amable to getthem down to231 and 288,respectively.My problem isthat I reactpoorly tostatins. Mylegs have be-come weak, Ihave a night-

mare of leg cramps, my mus-cles hurt, and I cope with nau-sea and gas. The cramps havespread to my hands and chestmuscles.I formerly was walking

two miles a day; now I canbarely walk a half-mile, andthat is with stops. I have triedniacin and red yeast rice. I amcurrently taking omega-3 andflaxseed-oil capsules.I am 5 feet 2 inches tall and

weigh 168 pounds. I am care-ful about my diet. I feel goodand energetic when not tak-ing a statin; however, I’mlethargic when taking thedrug. I’m afraid to quit but amtruly miserable, so which isthe lesser evil? I truly do notknow what to do.

Dear Reader: Statin drugswork well, but for some peo-ple, the price is high. This pos-es the question of whether thebenefits outweigh the risks.No one wants to suffer a heartattack or stroke, nor do theywant unpleasant side effectssuch as those you have expe-rienced. The answer shouldbe a decision between a pa-

tient and his or her physician.That said, there might be al-ternatives. First, however,let’s hit some possibilities.You can lower the dose of

your medication. This may re-duce or eliminate the legcramps and fatigue but mayalso reduce the effectivenessof the statin. You can changeto another label; however, thismight not be successful. Youhave already cut back on yourexercise routine, so I can’t en-dorse a further reduction.While some researchers ques-tion its effectiveness, youmight consider ezetimibe, aprescription cholesterol-ab-sorption inhibitor, or youmight try an over-the-count-er with natural plant stanolsand sterols. You don’t indicateif the niacin was at all effec-tive. Did you give it a try fora satisfactory length of time?If you smoke, discontinue

the habit. Eliminate friedfoods, the skin on chicken andthe fat on steak. Broil meats,and be sure to cut off any ex-cess fat prior to cooking. Con-tinue to exercise and modifyyour diet. Eat more fruits,vegetables, whole grains, fishand chicken. Limit theamount of cheese and eggsyou consume, and switch tofat-free milk.Ask your physician if he or

she would consider an appro-priate length of time so youcan initiate a new diet and ex-ercise plan. Perhaps a refer-ral to a nutritionist and thephysical-therapy departmentof your local hospital will beappropriate. Consider an OTCthat doesn’t contain a statincomponent.Ask your physician or spe-

cialist for advice on treating

your leg cramps. If an under-lying cause, such as iron de-ficiency or peripheral neu-ropathy, enters the equation,obtain appropriate treatment.Then consider ibuprofen,meditation, yoga and warm orcold packs. Avoid caffeineand alcohol. Place a bar ofsoap under your bed sheet toalleviate cramping. Exercise,but don’t overdo it, becausefatigue will make your symp-toms worse.To provide related infor-

mation, I am sending you acopy of my Health Report“Understanding Cholesterol.”Other readers who would likea copy should send a self-ad-dressed stamped No. 10 enve-lope and a $2 check or moneyorder to Newsletter, P.O.
