Thomas Today’s forecast 54º/52º Rain likely and cloudy 1-year-old girl nearly drowns in bathtub BY SARAH CAMPBELL [email protected] F AITH — As students board bus 24 each morning en route to Faith Elementary School, bus driver Emily Snider greets them with a wide smile and a warm hello. When they pull up to the school, students trickle off the bus as Snider says “have a good day.” “Their day begins with me,” she said. “If they have a good day on the bus, hopefully they’ll have a good day in the classroom.” Snider has followed the same morning routine for more than 27 years, departing from the bus park- ing lot shortly after 7 a.m. each morning. When she began her career, her daughters, Raina Goble and Salem Dietz, rode the bus with her every day. Now, her grandson, Faith fourth-grader Jayten Snider, tags along. “He actually wants to ride the bus with her,” Goble said of Jayten. “They have a relationship like most children don’t have with their grandparents ... it’s very special.” Dietz said although her mother can retire in a couple of years, she struggles with the thought of not working at Faith when her grand- daughters Maclaine Dietz, 3, and Taybryn Dietz, 5 weeks, begin school. “I don’t know if she’ll ever re- tire,” she said. “I don’t think she’d be happy if she did.” Dietz said she still remembers the time her mother fractured her foot several years ago. “She could walk on it, but she couldn’t drive a bus for about 12 weeks,” she said. “She was just mis- erable, not because her foot was broken, but because she felt she didn’t have a purpose.” • • • Although Snider said she began driving a bus when her daughters started school, she sticks around because she loves all of “her chil- dren” as she affectionately dubs them. “Children are wonderful crea- tures,” she said. “They'll come up and give me a great big hug and I'm on top of the world.” And, Goble says, those hugs aren’t just doled out at school. “She runs into children she knows everywhere we go,” she said. “She’s seen them at Walmart in Salisbury and all the way on the Carolina Coast where she loves to go fishing,” she said. Dietz said during the summer when her mother comes out to watch Jayten play baseball the oth- er kids assume she’s there to cheer for them. “They are so excited to see her that she doesn’t tell them any dif- ferent,” she said “She’s there root- ing them on as well.” • • • During a recent morning ride to school, fourth-grader Kelly Frye proclaimed Snider the “best bus driver ever” and the students sur- rounding her cheered in agree- ment. Jon c. Lakey/SALISBURY POST Long-time Faith Elementary School bus driver and cafeteria worker Emily Snider warms up her bus on a cold morn- ing before heading out on her bus route. M y voice plays on the young side of my actual age. In fact, I could pull a 20- to 30- year-old age range, David Bour- geois told me. “You don’t sound as old as you’re telling me you are,” he said. I’m 54. Bour- geois was, of course, buttering me up. He knew I was writing an ad- vance story about a class coming up lat- er this month on “voice acting.” The Salisbury Parks and Recre- ation Department is sponsoring, in conjunction with Voice Coaches of Albany, N.Y., a one-night session March 24 called “Getting Paid to Talk.” It will lay out the opportuni- ties in voiceovers and voice acting, whether participants have the pipes for it and how to make money doing it. Bourgeois, president and cre- ative director of Voice Coaches, said the class will be “an upbeat, realis- tic introduction to the field.” It is aimed especially at people who have always been told they have a great voice. Bourgeois said the Salisbury class “will do a good job convincing people to follow through with it, or convince them not to.” But let’s go back to my golden voice. From our conversation on the telephone, Bourgeois judged I have a East Coast voice with shades of Southern mixed in. (I grew up in Pennsylvania but have lived in the South for 32 years.) But believe me, I have no future in voice acting. I stumble and mum- ble with words. In 28-plus years of marriage, I’ve only left the voice an- nouncement on our answering ma- chine once. My wife held back on any rave reviews. I also sound like a serial killer on the voice message I have left on my work telephone. I shun public- speaking requests. I mouth the words to songs at church as a pub- lic-service gesture, protecting the ears around me. Bourgeois and the other coaches on his staff train aspiring voice-over artists. He also produces music, au- dio and voice-over content for clients who have included Discov- ery Networks, the Learning Chan- nel, HGTV and the WE Network. When most of us consider voiceovers or voice acting, we think of commercials and the people with booming, radio announcer-type voices. But Bourgeois said commercial voiceovers make up only 10 percent “of the work out there,” and com- mercial opportunities are pretty flat. The growth field for voices ap- parently rests with “narrative voice opportunities,” demanding a much wider range of voices. Take, for example, the video gaming industry. Video games re- quire vocal sound effects such as screaming, grunts, yells “and vari- ous non-verbal styles of emoting,” Voice Coaches says on its website. While the average Hollywood movie has 2,000 lines of dialogue, a video game may have from 10,000 David Bourgeois has got me thinking outside the voice box MARK WINEKA See VOICE, 2A See DRIVER, 7A Snider makes a ‘pre-flight’ check of her bus before departing on her route. BY SHAVONNE POTTS [email protected] A local woman was awarded damages from a Sal- isbury apartment complex for health problems she says resulted from mold in her apartment. Kelly Hosch was awarded $5,750 following a Mon- day hearing in small claims court. The amount in- cludes attorney fees. Clancy Hills Apartments, which originally brought a claim against Hosch in February, cited damages to the apartment, 104-B, in the amount of $215.76 that included fire damage, replacement of a broken win- dow and replacement of keys. Hosch filed a counterclaim saying mold in the apartment made her two daughters and her infant son sick. Her child’s pediatrician, Dr. Christopher Magryta, wrote a letter in January saying he’d seen pictures taken by Hosch that proved to him “their living conditions are very poor and that this child has high exposure to mold and other allergens.” Magryta said the apartment in its “state of disre- pair” was detrimental to the family’s overall health, and he advised them to leave. When Hosch moved into the apartment in 2005, she said, everything was clean. About six months lat- er, her sink overflowed, causing water damage to the carpets. It continued to overflow every couple of months, Hosch said. “Over time, I saw mold.

voices include audio books,training and educationalvideos, cable television, mo-bile games and applications,voicemail systems, chil-dren’s toys, animation andInternet programming.“The field is expanding

exponentially, and the mainthrust is on the narrativeside,” Bourgeois said. “...Our field is very niche-ori-ented.”People interested in

voiceovers must discoverwhere their voices fit in. Noteveryone wants to yell aboutused cars, Bourgeois said.The emphasis today fo-

cuses on believability. Is thevoice genuine? Is it sincere?Is it conversational?And to have the greatest

success, Voice Coachessays, a person has to treatvoice acting as a small busi-ness. The company cites aCNN.com report that saidthe average voice actorearns $47,000 annually. Withadvances in technology,voice acting also has be-come a profession where theperson often can work athome yet deal with clientsaround the world.“It’s not uncommon for

voice actors in their 50s and60s to easily develop a 30-year voice age range,” theVoice Coaches website says.Maybe Bourgeois wasn’t

buttering me up as much asI thought. Around our house, we’ve

always talked about mywife’s having a voice for ra-dio and television. She’s a re-tired teacher whose voicecarries great distances

through a room, and usual-ly, beyond its walls.It’s good to know this an-

gelic voice could be earningextra bucks.Believe me, it’s sincere,

genuine and believablewhen she’s telling me to takeout the garbage.

Medical facility mayshare easement onschool system property

BY SARAH [email protected]

The Rowan-SalisburyBoard of Education recent-ly decided it’s willing toshare an easement the dis-trict purchased to create abus entrance to a futureschool in China Grove, butthere’s a catch.John Stone, the architect

for a new primary healthcare facility that is set to bebuilt on U.S. 29, made a caseto the board last week, ask-ing to use the easement tobuild a secondary entranceto the building.Without the secondary

entrance, northbound vehi-cles on U.S. 29 would haveto make a U-turn to reachthe medical facility, whichwill be directly acrossfrom the Stag N’ Doerestaurant.“Our proposal would be

to develop a stretch of roadfrom Bostian Road to a turnin point in the China Grovemedical center,” Stone said. The board unanimously

approved Stone’s request tobuild the joint road withstipulations requested byGene Miller, the district’sassistant superintendent foroperations, made during themeeting.

Stone approached Millerabout sharing the road lastmonth. Miller orignally told Stone

that sharing the easementwould interfere with theschool system’s plans andcompromise student safety,but the school board decidedto discuss the matter duringits February meeting. Miller told the board last

week that after talking withofficials from the N.C. Depart-ment of Transportation a com-promise is possible. “I spoke with DOT reps

myself this week and the com-ment there was that the roadprobably could be shared in afairly safe manner,” he said.Miller said DOT officials

suggested requesting thateach lane of the road the med-ical facility builds be 12 feetwide along with adding a thirdgravel lane. “There wouldn’t be a lot of

expense to do that,” he said.“And at the time that we buildour school then (DOT) actu-ally might have money tocome in and pave the bus roadfor us.“It looks like it could be a

pretty good situation for us.”Stone said he would take

the new proposal to his clients. Contact reporter Sarah

LANDIS — The Board of Aldermenintroduced new recreation director An-drew Morgan at its meeting Monday.He’s been with the town since last week.Morgan, of China Grove, has a degree

in parks and recreation. He’s been work-ing at the Pavillion along with the Pub-lic Works department spreading mulchand putting up a border. Morgan saidhe’s currently talking to contractorslooking at prices on repairs to the towntennis courts.“We are getting a lot done in a short

amount of time,” he said.Morgan also came up with an idea

that he hopes would draw interest toLake Corriher. The idea, which is in itsearly stages, is a fishing challengewhere participants will have an oppor-tunity to catch tagged fish for prizes.Morgan hopes the idea will coincidewith the South Rowan YMCA AdventureRun in September. Morgan still has todevelop this idea more, he told the

board.In other business:• The board declared March Brain

Injury Awareness Month. Brain injuryis a public health epidemic resulting inlong-term disability for 80,000 NorthCarolinians.• The board referred potential

amendments to the video arcade/elec-tronic gaming ordinance to the planningboard.In recent weeks there have been a

few inquiries from people who want toobtain business permits for businesscenters that would offer a place for peo-ple to check their e-mail or pay theirbills and use a number of computer ter-minals for multiple uses. The businessowner would charge the user time onthe machine via a card, similar to aphone card.The issue, Town Manager Reed Linn

said, is that there would be no way tomonitor if the patron were to play asweepstakes game.North Carolina banned video sweep-

stakes machines in December, but the

town’s own ordinance does not addressa business center with multiple termi-nals.• No one spoke during a public hear-

ing concerning initial zoning on threerecently annexed properties.The board first discussed annexing

the properties at its November meeting.All of the initial annexations requestswere made via petition by the propertyowners. All of the properties will bezoned single family residential.The first property is near the inter-

section of Highland Avenue and AirportRoad. The property owner asked in No-vember that all three parcels be includ-ed in the Landis town limits.The second property is at North Main

Street and North Central Avenue, whichthe town owns. The property was donat-ed a number of years ago.The third property sits at West Round

Street and South Valley Street and ispartially in Landis and Kannapolis.• The board will have its budget re-

treat Saturday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. atTown Hall, 312 S. Main St.

are used to determine levelsof disability and compensationdue to medical conditions as-sociated with military service.The goal is to complete theseexams within 30 days from thedate Veterans Health Admin-istration receives the exam re-quest.

“Our charge is service toveterans and we intend tomeet our commitment with allof the resources we have,”said VA Mid-Atlantic HealthCare Network DirectorDaniel F. Hoffmann.

“My intention is to contin-ue the effort until the numberof veterans waiting more than30 days for an exam is zero.”

Each medical center in thenetwork is ensuring that ex-

tra trained and certified staffwill be on hand to conduct theexaminations. Veteransawaiting compensation andpension exams are being con-tacted to schedule appoint-ments.

There are many contribut-ing factors for the backlog, in-cluding the recent approvalof the new presumptive con-ditions tied to Agent Orange.This ruling alone enabledmore than 200,000 veteransnationwide to open newclaims and required the VA toreadjudicate previously de-nied claims for ischemicheart disease, Parkinson’s dis-ease, hairy cell or other B-cellleukemias.

The Mid-Atlantic region,and North Carolina in partic-ular, has experienced sus-tained and dramatic veteranpopulation growth often tiedto the fact that this region is

home to some of America’slargest military installations.

Completed exams will beforwarded to the appropriateVeterans Benefits Adminis-tration regional office, wherespecialists will make determi-nations and mail notificationsto the veterans. Veterans Ben-efits Administration regionaloffices are in Roanoke, Va.,Winston-Salem and Hunting-ton, W.Va.

Veterans or family mem-bers with questions aboutclaims should call 1-800-827-1000, or log on to www.va.gov.

THE BRAINS BEHIND THE BEAUTY: This is the High-Tech computer board that controls the Fireless Flame technology developed by Asian engineers.

EASILY ROLLS ANYWHERE: This is the Heat Surge Roll-n-Glow® Fireplace that is so portable it easily rolls from bed-room to living room to keep you warm everywhere. No vents, no chimney and no tools. Just plug it in.

World famous Amish built fireplacemantles now being given away freeAfter about a million sold, nearly perfect Scratch-N-Dent models of the world famous Amish builtfireplace mantles are now being given away free to the first 6,144 readers who call to beat the orderdeadline for the miracle heaters that let you turn your furnace off earlier this year

How It Works: The HEAT SURGE mira-cle heater is a work of engineering gen-ius from the China Coast so advanced, you simply plug it into any standard out-let. Based upon the national average it uses only about 9¢ of electric an hour on the standard setting. Yet, it produces up to an amazing 4,606 BTU’s on the high set-ting. So watch out, a powerful on board Hi-Tech heat turbine silently forces hot air out into the room from the vent so you feel the bone soothing heat instantly. These nearly perfect Scratch-N-Dent fireplaces have each been professionally inspected and reconditioned, if needed, by our pro-fessional technicians and come with our standard limited full year replacement or money back warranty, less shipping plus a 30-Day Satisfaction Guarantee.

PICKY, PICKY: “If it’s not perfect, give them away free,” said the elder Amish craftsman. That’s why these nearly perfect genuine Amish built fireplace mantles made in Ohio are being given away free to the first 6,144 readers who call 1-888-414-3601 to beat the order deadline for the world famous Heat Surge Fireless Flame miracle heaters that can drastically slash your heat bills. The miracle invention rolls from room to room with no chimney, no vents, no wood, no mess and no smoke. Just plug it in and relax in front of the Fireless Flame.

(UMS) If you just got stung with another high heat bill you better hurry and get in on this free giveaway.

Today, for the first time ever beautiful Scratch-N-Dent models of the world famous Heat Surge® Miracle Fireplace mantles are actually being given away free to the gener-al public.

The only thing today’s readers need to do is call the Toll Free Hotline before the dead-line starting at precisely 8:00am this morn-ing to order the miracle heaters. Everyone who does will instantly be awarded the genu-ine handmade Amish Light Honey Oak Fire-place mantle absolutely free.

“This is all happening because the Amish craftsmen who have already built nearly a million of these mantles take great pride in their work so not all mantles make the final grade. Others can be nicked during handling after they leave the Amish workshops,” said Chris Gallo, Heat Surge spokesman.

“We think they are way too hard on them-selves, but that’s how we are able to set aside hundreds of these nearly perfect units to give away free,” Gallo said.

“These are the newest Heat Surge Fireless Flame∏ Fireplace models. Call them whatever you want, refurbished, reconditioned, nearly new, but chances are you will never find the flaw, it could be on the firebox or the mantle, but usually smaller than a thumb nail. Since the mantles also get labeled nearly perfect we are giving them away free,” Gallo said.

“It’s the buzz around town. Yes, the Amish craftsmen need to earn money like every-one else but they are willing to take less for their work so that everyone can get one. It shows we care. The overriding goal is to help as many people as possible to substantially cut their heat bills now and next fall by allow-ing everyone to turn down their thermostat,” Gallo said.

As we look forward to enjoying the sum-mer, there will be that monster lurking in the shadows: HIGH HEATING BILLS. They are again just a few short months away. So if your heat bills sting right now, just think how bad they could hurt next year.

“Giving these away now is about the best way to prepare everyone for what is com-ing. So if you thought you couldn’t afford the World Famous Heat Surge Fireplace, now is

the time to get in on this,” Gallo said.“Everyone wants them now because by

next fall, this free giveaway will be long gone,” he said.

Don’t let anyone talk you into anything else. Those others are just imitations. These are the Heat Surge Fireplaces with genuine Amish Mantles that actually roll from room to room to give you the huge savings with zone heating.

A special High-Tech on board computer controls what’s called the Fireless Flame that gives you the peaceful flicker of a real fire but without any flames, fumes, smells, ashes or mess. Everyone is getting them because they require no chimney and no vent. You just plug it in.

The patent-pending Fireless Flame looks so real it fools everybody but it has no real fire. The mantles are handmade in Ohio right in the heart of Amish country where they are beautifully hand-rubbed, stained and varnished.

Thousands of people from California and Florida even flock to get them because they may never have to turn on their furnace. And since the standard setting uses only 750 watts, about the same energy as a cof-fee maker the potential savings are absolute-ly incredible.

“That way, everyone who gets them now can immediately start saving on their heat bills. You’ll instantly feel bone soothing heat in any room. You will never have to be cold again,” he said.

“We’ll do everything we can so no one gets left out. But, if you miss out today, your last chance is tomorrow to get in on this free giveaway of the world famous Heat Surge Fireplace mantle, but you also get the Fire-less Flame miracle heater free of next year’s dealer mark up. After they are gone we have to turn everyone away,” confirms Gallo.

“So when lines are busy keep trying. We promise to get to every call. Then we will have a delivery truck out to your door right away with your beautiful Amish made Heat Surge Roll-n-Glow® Fireplace,” Gallo said.

Today’s readers need to call the Toll Free Hotline beginning at 8:00am today. If lines are busy keep trying, all calls will be answered.

All those who beat the order deadline to cover just the miracle heater firebox and shipping get them installed free in a free Amish built fireplace mantle.

There is a strict limit of two units per household only with a valid Free Claim Code.

This Free giveaway is for two days only. Today, 4,300 will be given away and only 1,844 will be given away tomorrow. When they are gone, they are gone.

SPENCER — When thetime came to discuss a refer-endum on staggered terms forthe Spencer Board of Alder-men, one member brought outa visual aid.

Alderman Jeff Morris heldup a tube of adhesive called“Power Grab.”

This is what I think the vot-ers are going to think we’redoing,” Morris said.

Right now, the entire Boardof Aldermen comes up forelection every two years.

If voters approved stag-gered terms, four currentmembers would get an addi-tional year or two added totheir terms so that the stag-gered terms could be imple-mented.

Morris said that voters hadrejected staggered terms be-fore.

When voters last had achance to decide, in 2004, op-

ponents of the measure wonout by just 64 votes.

Morris first moved to tablethe discussion, then changedhis motion.

“I move that we reject anyidea of extending our termsbeyond the current twoyears,” Morris said.

Alderman Reid Waltersseconded the motion.

“And I third it,” MayorPro Tem Scott Benfield said,drawing grins and laughs.

In the end, the vote was 5-to-0 against the idea of anoth-er staggered terms referen-dum.

Alderman Tracy Aitkenwas absent from the meeting.

Asked for his opinion dur-ing a recess, Mayor JodyEverhart said he was in favorof “doing what’s right for theboard.”

But, he said, having beenan alderman in the past, it

can take some time to get ad-justed to the new position.

Resident Bob Oswaldspoke in favor of staggeredterms during the public com-ment segment of the meet-ing.

And he made nearly thesame point.

“Having served on boardsbefore, I know it takes a fewmonths before you feel com-fortable speaking,” Oswaldsaid.

But comfortable or not,for the foreseeable future allsix of Spencer’s aldermenwill continue to be up for re-election at the same time.

And that, Walters said, ishow it ought to be.

“When you put yourselfout there publicly like this, itholds you accountable,” Wal-ters said.

In other business before theSpencer Board of Aldermen:

• Aldermen voted 5-to-0 to approve a$500 facade grant to John E. Palmer, own-er of the Green Goat Gallery at 526 S. Sal-isbury Ave.

The grant will be used to replace theawnings on the face of the building, whichhave become tattered with age and due to re-cent windstorms.

According to the grant application, thesame style of awnings will be re-installed.

• A vote to release a request for qualifi-cations for a facilities assessment study wastabled until April’s meeting.

Alderman Jeff Morris asked that the item

be removed until preliminary budget infor-mation had been received.

He said he feared the town would losecredibility if a request was sent out and thenwithdrawn.

Aldermen voted 5-to-0 to table the matter.• Alderman Reid Walters added a discus-

sion to the agenda of the Wil-Cox Bridge proj-ect.

He asked the board to consider asking theN.C. Department of Transportation to repaintnorthbound lanes to include a bicycle lane.

Doing so, he said, would allow them to bet-ter take advantage of a proposed greenwayleading down to the Wil-Cox Bridge, whichwill remain closed to vehicle traffic.

A consensus among board members fa-vored doing so; no vote was taken.

smell like mildew,” she said.Hosch said Clancy Hills

maintenance workers told hershe was responsible for clean-ing her carpets. She did notagree.Before long, what Hosch be-

lieved to be mold began grow-ing on the carpets including in-side her children’s closet. Themold also covered the ceilingand along the walls.There was also sewage

backup from her upstairsneighbor’s toilet.“When my upstairs neigh-

bor flushed her toilet, fecesand urine would drip down,”Hosch said.Hosch said in her counter-

claim she’d repeatedly com-plained to Clancy Hills aboutthe problems. Some of hercomplaints were addressed,but many were “ignored,”court documents allege. Hosch called the Rowan

County Health Departmentand says officials there toldher she needed to contact thecity of Salisbury’s minimumhousing inspections unit.According to a city report,

Salisbury Code Services Divi-sion Manager Chris Branhaminspected the apartment in

mid-January and found a num-ber of deficiencies, accordingto his report, including the ab-sence interior wall sheathingto prevent the spread of fire,standing water under thekitchen sink causing a mildewsmell and damp carpet in therear bedrooms, which alsosmelled of mildew.Branham said Tuesday he

was not a specialist in moldand could not conclude thesubstance found in Hosch’sapartment was definitelymold.“We look at the source. The

things that would aid in moldbeing inside the dwelling,”Branham said.

Her physician suggestedHosch buy a mold test kit froma home improvement store.She did and said the resultswere positive for mold.“Rather than fix the dam-

aged ceiling in the bathroom,plaintiff built a false drop ceil-ing to hide it,” her claim said.“The foam tiles in the dropceiling continued to collect wa-ter and grow mold.”The surface mold on the

carpets “apparently vacu-umed off, but the moldypadding and carpeting was notremoved and replaced,” thecourt document said.Since the mold appeared,

Hosch and her children havesuffered adverse health af-fects including skin rashes andrespiratory problems, accord-ing to the claim.Hosch said she and her

children suffered diarrhea and“excessive nose bleeds. Theyhad them two to three times aday.”She is awaiting test results

on whether the mold and oth-er allergens caused her son todevelop asthma.Clancy Hills “failed and re-

fused to put and keep thepremises in a fit and habitablecondition,” the claim said.Despite knowing the apart-

ment was not habitable, Clan-cy Hills continued to demandand collect full rent, the claimalleges. Hosch pays a portionof her rent while the U.S. De-partment of Housing and Ur-ban Development pays part.At the time of the filing of herclaim, she did not owe anyrent, the court document said.Hosch also said in her coun-

terclaim she had returned thekey to the complex as ClancyHills had asked.Branham said Clancy Hills

corrected problems he’d out-lined in a pre-hearing noticeissued to Hosch and ClancyHills. The notice was writtento inform the parties of theproblems and what would bediscussed at a Jan. 27 hearing.

He noted it was rare for acompany to repair a problembefore a hearing.Hosch said the problem was

not repaired but was merelypatched over. She took photosof the apartment before, dur-ing and after work was com-plete.“They just can come in and

build or paint over it. When youcame in, it looked like a brandnew apartment,” Hosch said.The small claims hearing

was held Monday and ClancyHills representatives did notshow up, said Hosch’s attorneyEd Sharp, a Greensboro lawyerwith Legal Aid of North Caroli-na.“A large part of this was

trying to motivate the landlordto effect proper repairs,”Sharp said. A Clancy Hills representa-

tive reached by telephone de-clined to comment.

goes out of her way to helpkids who are disadvan-taged. “I’ve seen her go find

coats and socks for kids be-fore,” she said. “She seemsto gravitate toward thosekids and know exactly whothey are.”Goble said her mother is

a “saint,” who is constantlysearching for ways to helpother people out.

“She has a halo and littlewings,” she said. “She hastaken care of so many kids,so many people.”Snider doesn’t just make

kids smile on the bus, she’salso a ray of sunshine dur-ing lunch, serving as a childnutrition specialist in theschool’s cafeteria. “She’s such a special per-

son,” Pearl Livengood, theschool’s child nutritionmanager, said. “She’s usual-ly very happy and upbeat ...she doesn’t mind coming towork and it shows.”Snider helps prepare and

serve hot meals to Faithstudents every day, takingthe time to learn each oftheir names as they passthrough making their selec-tions.

“She knows them all,”Livengood said. “She evenhas special nicknames forsome of them.”

Snider ever really wantedto be in life was a mother, agoal that has been fulfilled

in both her personal andprofessional life. “She is a good mother to

all her kids, whether theyare biologically hers ornot,” she said. “She is one ina million, they don’t makemany mommas like her.”Dietz said Snider has

served as an excellent rolemodel, battling breast can-cer with grace. She has nowbeen in remission for morethan three years. “She’s a trooper,” she

Last week, I provided abrief overview of the EatSmart Move More; Weigh

Less program. This week, I willexplain what ESMMWL is, out-line how the program works, itstools, and how to get started.

Eat Smart,Move More;Weigh Less is aprogram thatwill:

• Explore be-haviors that willhelp you achieveand maintain ahealthy weight.

• Identifystrategies to helpyou Eat Smart,

Move More and Weigh Less.• Help you learn how living

mindfully can help you achieveand maintain a healthy weight.

• Help you create new life-long habits of eating smart andmoving more to achieve andmaintain a healthy weight.

Eat Smart, Move More;Weigh Less is NOT:

• A prescriptive weight lossdiet.

• A diet with special foods.• A physical activity pre-

scription.• Something you will ever

finish.ESMMWL uses three basic

techniques that have beenproven to help with weight lossand weight maintenance: plan-ning, tracking and living mind-fully

The combination of the tech-niques and the strategies listedabove add up to perfect equa-tion to help you reach yourhealthy weight goals.

Participants plan meals,shopping, physical activity,snacks. They also plan for diffi-cult situations.

Participants track what theyeat, their physical activity andtheir weight.

Living mindfully means topay attention to the events, ac-tivities and thoughts that makeup your life.

Living mindfully means do-ing things purposefully, eatingwith awareness, eating withoutdistractions — no cell phone,television, work, computer ornewspaper.

It means not eating whiledriving or working at yourdesk.

It means eating slowly andenjoying every bite, and sittingdown while eating, eating slow-ly and enjoying every bite, witheach meal lasting at least 20minutes.

Living mindfully means be-ing aware of how you move andgetting enough sleep, at leastseven hours per night. Thathelps create a lifestyle that sup-ports a healthy weight.

Program ToolsThere are many tools that

are available for you to use asyou begin this process. The ES-MMWL program has designedgreat tools to assist you inevery stage of weight loss.

In stage 1, getting ready forweight loss, there is a readinessquiz to help you determine ifyou are ready to lose weight.

In stage 2, you gather mate-rials, including a meal plannerthat shows you how to planmeals for the week, a shoppingplanner that makes cookingmeals easy. You will also pre-pare a daily journal that allowsyou to track food, activity, aswell as feelings.

You will also use a weeklyreport card, which is a trackingform for weekly weight change.

There is also an activityplanner that allows for planningactivities and a “be active yourway” fact sheet that helps youplan for activities.

Once you have taken thereadiness quiz and reviewedmaterials, the final step is totake a few measurements. ES-MMWL is designed to be a pro-gram were you partner up withsomeone so you can encourageand keep each other on track.If you and a friend decide topartner up for the next 14weeks, the first thing you willneed to do is measure each oth-er.

ne size fits all” doesn’t workfor nutrition.

That was the message de-livered by Dr. MartinKohlmeier Tuesday, March1, at the David H. Murdock

Core Laboratory Building. The presen-tation was part of the Nutrition Re-search Institute’s Appetite for LifeAcademy, a series of four seminarspresenting the latest in nutrition sci-ence by leading experts.

Depending on a person’s geneticmakeup, overconsumption or under-consumption of certain things — evencoffee — can have a dramatic influ-ence on health.

“What excites me these days is howour genetics influence what we need,”Kohlmeier told an audience of close to100 people.

Individualized nutrition planningwill be increasingly feasible with ad-vances in genetics research, he be-lieves.

Kohlmeier, who works in the depart-ment of nutrition at the University ofNorth Carolina at Chapel Hill, as wellas the UNC Nutrition Research Insti-tute, has 30 years’ research experi-ence. He’s dedicated to translating re-search into practical nutrition advice.

He spoke of “The Goldilocks Princi-ple” — not getting too much or too littlebut just the right amount of somethingfor optimal health.

Kohlmeier reminded his audiencethat iron requirements vary accordingto age and sex, with females 19-50 re-quiring more of the mineral than anyother group.

He also noted that certain commonfactors affect our nutrition require-ments. Smokers and aspirin users needmore vitamin C in their diets; peoplewith diabetes need extra zinc and otherminerals.

But more is not always better, hecautioned. Too much iron is associatedwith deposits in the liver, heart andbrain, he said, and research has shownthat iron deposits in the brain are asso-ciated with a higher risk of dementia.

Everyone has somewhat different

nutrition needs, Kohlmeier said, andnot simply because of factors such asage, sex or physical condition. Ourgenes also play a role.

People have adapted historically tovery different environments,Kohlmeier explained. Mammals have atolerance for milk for a relatively shorttime during infancy. After weaning,the milk enzyme in the small intestinegoes away in animals like elephants,monkeys and mice.

Some humans, however, have devel-oped “lactase persistence” whichmeans that they can continue to toler-ate lactase after infancy — but onlyabout 30 percent of humans worldwidehave this ability.

In explaining how genes interactwith food and nutrients, Kohlmeier ex-plained that certain populations whocarry a particular gene (G6PDH) areresistant to malaria — a good thing.This same adaptation, however, alsocauses a food intolerance — sensitivityto broad beans.

That may not sound like a bad trade-off, but other genes have been identi-fied that can affect health in signifi-cant ways. For example, those with aparticular genetic variant would bewise to get extra folate (through non-fortified food), which is believed to re-duce cardiovascular risk more dramat-ically than statin use. However, forwomen with a particular genetic vari-ant, taking a multi-vitamin that con-tains folic acid increases the risk ofbreast cancer.

Things can get complicated whengenetic variants come into play. Whilefor most people, getting plenty of calci-um might reduce colorectal cancerrisk, for those of a certain genotype, in-creased calcium consumption can actu-ally increase the risk of that disease.

Genetic information can also assist

in weight loss efforts. In people with a particular genetic

variant, Kohlmeier said, consumptionof saturated fat makes them burn lessenergy, and a study suggests that theseindividuals will gain 12-14 pounds moreover an extended period of time if theyconsume the same amount of fat as aperson without that particular variant.

In one of the most dramatic exam-ples, Kohlmeier talked about a studylooking at how coffee consumption canincrease the risk of myocardial infarc-tion — or heart attack. Although somepeople can drink four cups with no ad-ditional risk, those with a particular ge-netic variant who drink a lot of coffee(or other sources of caffeine) can sig-nificantly decrease their risk by cut-ting consumption to only one cup.

In fact, cutting coffee consumptionin these individuals can decrease therisk by more than 33 percent. Comparethat to the effectiveness of prescrip-tion statins, which decrease risk byonly 10-15 percent.

Kohlmeier emphasized that geneticinformation must be used safely andsecurely, since it could have insuranceramifications for those whose geneticprofile puts them in groups that are athigher risk for serious health condi-tions.

• • •Kohlmeier is looking for people who

are interested in being part of his ge-netic research. Although those selectedto participate will not have access totheir personal results, they will be ableto use a computer program that doesfactor in their own personal geneticprofile to craft individualized mealplans.

In fact, cutting coffee consumption in these individuals can decrease the

Dear Amy: I have a co-worker who puts on a pot ofcoffee when she arrives atwork each morning.Normally, I love the aro-

ma of fresh-brewed coffee,but this person brews a par-ticularly sickening flavoredcoffee that literally makesme nauseated.

This co-worker is su-perior in rankto me and isvery sensitiveabout any-thing she per-ceives as per-sonal criti-cism (which,no doubt, ishow shewould take itif I were to ap-

proach her directly).Do you have any sugges-

tions about dealing with thischronic problem?

— Morning Sickness

Dear Morning: I’m sure oth-ers share your malady. Some-thing about the strong flavor-ing used in some of these spe-cialty coffees seems to maketheir fresh-brewed aroma ex-tra-pungent.I suggest you co-opt your

colleague by enlisting herhelp with your “problem.”Throw yourself on her mer-cy and act as if you need herpermission to make achange.Say, “I don’t know what’s

going on with me because Ilove the smell of coffee in themorning, but these flavoredcoffees are making me feelnauseated. What do you thinkthat’s about? If I contributedanother kind of coffee, doyou think people wouldmind? I’ll even get it readythe night before so you canjust switch it on to make thatfirst pot, if that would help.”Some of the flavoring in

the coffee can be supplantedby using flavored syrups orcreamers. You could con-tribute some to the office.

Dear Amy:My boyfriend offour years recently proposedto me. I am very excited. Ihave already chosen mybridesmaids. These brides-maids are all girls I feel veryclose to.However, I have two sis-

ters I am not close to at all. Ihave not included my sistersas bridesmaids (I was not in-cluded in their weddingswhen they got married).I am afraid that my father

is going to say he won’t helppay for the wedding if thesesisters are not included, butI don’t want someone I amnot close to in my wedding —sisters or not — taking theplace of girls that have al-ways been there for me.Am I wrong for not want-

ing my sisters as brides-maids?

— Blushing Bride

Dear Bridge:Were your sis-

ters wrong for not includingyou as a bridesmaid whenthey got married — and didyour father decide not tohelp pay for their weddingsbecause of this exclusion?Also, if your sisters had

included you as a brides-maid, might your relation-ship have improved?These are questions you

need to ponder.There is no rule stating

that sisters must be brides-maids. However, weddingsare supposed to be aboutjoining families, and thismeans that sometimes unde-serving or undesirable rela-tives are given honoraryroles, and sometimes rela-tionships improve as a re-sult.The problem with letting

someone else pay for yourparty is that the person hold-ing the purse strings hassome power. If you don’tagree with your father’s di-rectives, then you and yourfiance should finance yourown nuptials.

Chamberlin’s Law wouldhelp protect animals

I’m writing to encourage support forChamberlin’s Law, which was conceivedafter two dogs were abandoned and leftchained to a tree with no food, water orshelter for months in a High Point yard.Chamberlin was the “lucky” one. The oth-er dog had to be euthanized.

Although Chamberlin survived, he wasleft disfigured and unable to walk due toextreme malnourishment. He now moveswith the help of a special wheelchair and,after all he has been through, still man-ages to happily wag his tail.

This law requests modest, but desper-ately needed changes to the state animalwelfare statute to protect helpless ani-mals. It will change the language to“reckless abuse” of animals in lieu of“malicious or intentional abuse,” which isharder to prove. This revision will setminimum standards for shelter, orderconvicted abusers to seek a form of coun-seling at their expense and will allowjudges to prohibit abusers from everagain having custody of an animal. It willalso lead to more convictions of animalabusers in general.

Legislators suggest they have moreimportant issues to debate. Yes, timesare hard, but we cannot leave productivelegislation on the wayside while we worktoward solutions for more complex is-sues. Besides, what is there to debate?Passage of Chamberlin’s Law is simplythe right thing to do. We should providea safe environment for all inhabitants,whether on two legs or four! We need tostand together and stand firm that wewill not tolerate any violence in thiscountry, period.

Please urge your state legislators tosupport this bill. All animals are made ofbrain, nerve and beating heart, just likeus. Our furry friends love us, greet us atthe door, and are endlessly optimistic.They know our secrets and they are our

best friends. They are North Carolina’sanimals and they need us.

Gas price hikes are unfairWe just went to Winston-Salem and on

the way back got off Interstate 40 at U.S.601 in Mocksville. Gas at the interstatewas $3.19. Now, if a county so close to

Salisbury can sell gas at that price, whyare we in Rowan being charged so much?I thought the tax was the same in all ofNorth Carolina. There is no oil shortage.It is the government’s way of raisingprices. Also, how can the stations raisethe price on gas that is already in theirtanks in the ground? The gas that is in theground was bought at a lower price thanwhat they raise it to. This is unfair.

MAGNETIC BODY ‘PIERCINGS’

DangerousattractionAs if piercings weren’t enough of an

issue for parents and kids to wrestleover, now fake piercings are causing

trouble. In several instances across thecountry — including in Rowan — childrenhave accidentally swallowed magnets in-tended to look like a tongue or nose ringand wound up in the hospital. A Missouri case getting a lot of atten-

tion involved a 14-year-old. In Rowan theproblem surfaced among fourth-graders atWoodleaf Elementary School — proofagain that kids will do whatever they hearor see teenagers do. It works like this:They put two of the powerful magneticbeads on their tongues, top and bottom, toresemble piercing jewelry. They trust themagnetism to hold the beads in place. Butthe magnets don’t stay, and some havewound up in kids’ stomaches and intestines— where they continue to try to stick to-gether, even through tissue. The resultscould be fatal. Magnetic toys have been around a long

time, but puzzles comprised of hundredsof small magnets have become popular.One version was Rolling Stone’s 2009 Toyof the Year. Manufacturers put warningsin their literature, such as: “The NeoCubeor any of the spheres should never be putin the mouth, ears, nose, or any other bodi-ly orifice.” That alone is a strong clue thatthe puzzle should be kept away from chil-dren and other naive adventurers. Vigi-lance from parents and other adults maybe the best defense, along with strongwarnings to kids. Don’t mess with thesemagnets. The damage could be quick andpainful.

Moderately Confused

BY DR. MIKE WALDENNorth Carolina Cooperative Extension

It’s often said we need to know wherewe’ve been to know where we’re go-ing. This adage can certainly be ap-

plied to the economy. Old timers like me,who have been around North Carolina fordecades, know the state is a differentplace today than it was 30 or 40 years ago.

Textiles, tobacco and fur-niture are still here butare a much smaller part ofthe economy today thanthey were then. We’vechanged, but to what?

Many would say the “towhat” has not been good.There’s an image of low-paying service jobs re-placing well-compensatedfactory jobs. While some

of this has certainly occurred, the realityof economic change is more complicated.

A couple of years ago I wrote a bookabout North Carolina’s economy called“North Carolina in the Connected Age.” Init, I detailed the transformation of theNorth Carolina economy. At its peak, thestate’s legacy industries — the Big Threeof tobacco, textiles and furniture — ac-counted for almost one-fourth of all ofNorth Carolina’s economic activity. By thestart of the 21st century, the Big Three’sshare was down to less than 8 percent.

Fortunately for our state, we both im-ported and home-grew new industries. Weimported motor vehicle parts manufactur-ing from the midwest. We first importedand then expanded the technology andpharmaceutical sectors. Food processing

expanded along with the shift in agricul-ture from crops to livestock. And banking— headquartered in Charlotte — grew tobe the state’s largest single industrythrough mergers and acquisitionsthroughout the country.

Indeed, while the Big Three wereshrinking, these new industries of tech-nology, pharmaceuticals, banking, foodprocessing and motor vehicle parts — thenew Big Five as I call them — were grow-ing to account for over 15 percent of thestate’s economy by 2000.

But we’re now in 2011. What’s hap-pened over the past decade? Is whatmakes North Carolina tick still changing?

The answer is an unqualified “yes.”The Big Three’s share of the state econo-my is now down to 4 percent, while theBig Five’s proportion is up to 20 percent.So the transformation of North Carolina’seconomy from the traditional industriesto the new industries continues.

Yet this doesn’t mean there haven’tbeen shake-ups. Among the new Big Five,banking and pharmaceuticals had thesmallest gains, growing only slightlyfaster than the overall economy. Nextwere more rapid gains in food processingand motor vehicle parts.

The clear star in industry growth inNorth Carolina during the last decade wastechnology. Its production value in-creased at triple digit rates. Indeed, thevalue of all durable manufacturing in thestate soared by more than 40 percent, sur-passing the national growth rate indurable manufacturing by three to two.

Was this continuing shift in industriesin North Carolina good for the state?Change is always hard. Any time one set

of industries declines while others grow,some workers will benefit while otherslose. Workers from the old jobs don’t nec-essarily have the skills for positions in thenew industries. This is a continuing issuein North Carolina and the country.

But in the turbulent first decade of the21st century, we can say that North Car-olina outperformed the nation. From thestart of the decade’s economic expansionbeginning in late 2001 to its end in 2007,North Carolina’s job growth beat nationaljob growth 8 percent to 5.5 percent, andthe state’s value of economic productionoutpaced national production 18 percentto 16 percent. So we were able to growand change at the same time.

Will our state’s economic transforma-tion continue? Yes. Will the same indus-tries dominate the state’s economy adecade in the future? Likely not! There’salready evidence from the last decade ofnew economic upstarts, specifically infor-mation and the military, both of whichhad fast growth in the 2000s. To thesemay be added alternative energy, tourismand possibly auto assembly in the future.

One thing I’ve learned from studyingeconomics for almost 40 years is thatchange is the one constant. The NorthCarolina economy is an excellent exampleof this principle. The eternal question is,change to what? You decide!

U.S. should rethink weapon sales to Arab statesFor many years American policy has

been to sell modern weaponry toArab states. The reasons given are to

maintain the “balance of power” in the re-gion, but the unstated and most likely rea-son is to keep the oil flowing.

The Obama administration has ap-proved billions in arms sales and trans-fers to Arab states, including Egypt, Jor-

dan, Kuwait, Morocco, Sau-di Arabia and the UnitedArab Emirates. But publicattitudes about arms salesto Arab countries appear tobe changing, especially inlight of the current up-heaval in the region withsome dictators using“Made in USA” weaponsagainst their own people.

According to a recentstory in the Wall StreetJournal titled “U.S. reviews

arms sales amid turmoil,” even the govern-ment now “has launched a review of mili-tary assistance and prospective weaponssales to countries caught up in a wave ofpopular revolts, underlining growing un-certainty about how the turmoil sweepingthe Middle East will alter fundamentals ofU.S. policy in the region.” And the reviewis long in coming, given that Bloomberg re-ported way back in September 2010 thatthe U.S. Government Accountability Officefound that “the U.S. authorized as much as$37 billion of arms sales to Saudi Arabiaand other Persian Gulf nations over fiveyears without always documenting the po-

tential effect on foreign policy and nationalsecurity.”

A new Rasmussen Reports national tele-phone survey shows that “only 20 percentof American adults think the United Statesshould continue providing foreign aid toArab countries in the Middle East.” Alongparty lines, the survey also showed that 76percent of Republicans, 48 percent of De-mocrats and 50 percent of adults not affili-ated with either major party think thisway. On the question of continued aid to Is-rael, the poll found 61 percent of Republi-cans, 46 percent of Democrats and 34 per-cent of unaffiliateds in favor.

The idea of maintaining a balance ofpower in the region might make moresense if the Arab states had any real ene-mies. But their only declared enemy is Is-rael, which isn’t a threat, as long as it is notattacked again, as it has been many timesby Arab states since 1948. There also havebeen, and continue to be, numerous attacksby non-states, such as Hamas and Hezbol-lah, all with the intention of destroying theJewish state and eradicating the region ofJews. A “balance of power” policy againstsuch aggression is not in the interest of ourstrongest Middle East ally, nor is it inAmerica’s interest, as long as we still standfor freedom.

Two other arguments one hears mostfor maintaining the arms sales to Arabstates are: (1) If we don’t sell them arms,other countries will; and (2) such salesbring money back into this country. A na-tion that prides itself on doing the rightthing should abide by a higher standard

than that of other arms providers. For thehigh ideals we profess, but don’t always at-tain, consider the lyrics from “America theBeautiful,” which includes, “Till all suc-cess be nobleness and every gain divine!”

Foreign aid that produces results inAmerica’s interest is a good thing. Helpingto fight AIDS in Africa, for example, meetsboth American humanitarian and policygoals. Sending aid to Arab nations thatteach in their schools, broadcast in theirmedia and preach from their minbars thatAmerica and Israel are evil and must bedestroyed serves neither of these objec-tives. At the very least, U.S. aid to Arabstates should be tied to a change in ideolog-ical and theological behavior in those coun-tries.

Lack of aid isn’t the problem. The oil re-sources of many Arab states give themmore than enough to care for their ownpeople. Lack of modernity is the problem.So long as many Arab states continue intheir feudalistic mentality and suppres-sion of half their population (women),prosperity and the “blessings of liberty”will not wish to pay them a visit.

No matter how these numerous upris-ings turn out — and some could turn outvery badly for the people of those nationsand for U.S. policy — America’s policy ofarms sales to Arab states definitely needsto change.

ST. LOUIS (AP) — Adeputy federal marshalwho was shot in the headTuesday during a gun bat-tle with a man they weretrying to arrest died of hiswounds hours later, theU.S. Marshals Service said.John Perry, 48, died at

Saint Louis University Hos-pital at 7 p.m. — 12 hoursafter he and two other lawenforcement officers wereshot by the 35-year-old manwanted on drug possessionand assault charges. Thesuspect was also killed.Another deputy marshal

— 31-year-old TheodoreAbegg, a three-year veter-an — was shot in an ankle,while a bullet grazed anunidentified police officer’sface.Perry was in the mar-

shals service for nearly adecade. Relatives flockedto his side at the hospital ashe clung to life.“Our people and our

partners are well trainedand prepared, but it is im-possible to predict when awanted individual willmake a fateful choice thatresults in the loss of life orinjury,” Stacia Hylton, themarshals service’s direc-tor, said in a statement.“When that happens, andthe life lost is a law en-forcement officer or otherpublic servant, it is an im-measurable tragedy felt byall.”Perry was accompany-

ing police as they to arrestCarlos Boles at a home onthe city’s south side. Boleswas wanted on a Missouri

warrant charging him withassaulting a law enforce-ment officer and posses-sion of a controlled sub-stance.The police department

said it requested backupfrom the U.S. MarshalsService because of a tip thatBoles might be a threat.When the law enforce-

ment officers arrived atBoles’ home, they discov-ered there were children in-side, according a police ac-count of the incident. Afterthe children were escortedoutside, the officers enteredand began a floor-by-floorsearch for Boles. When theyspotted him on the secondfloor, Boles started shoot-ing, police said.

Sannita Vaughn, whoidentified herself as Boles’sister, told the St. LouisPost-Dispatch that herthree children — ages 8, 13and 15 — were staying withher brother and his girl-friend at the home.Vaughn was reluctant to

talk about the matter later,telling the Associated Pressas other relatives tried tokeep reporters away that“all we know is they killedhim.”Television footage

showed one marshal beingcarried down an alley byseveral officers and thenhustled into an ambulance.Boles’ criminal record in

St. Louis stretched back to1992, when he was charged

with first-degree assault atthe age of 16, according tocourt records and the Mar-shals Service. He pleadedguilty in early 1993 andserved four months of a 10-year prison sentence justafter his 17th birthday.Boles went to prison

again in 2005, serving fourmonths of a 10-year prisonsentence for felony chargesof marijuana possession.He was on probation until2008 in that case.In October, Boles was

walking down a street whenpolice officers began fol-lowing him, according to aprobable cause statement.They tried to arrest him af-ter seeing him throw a pillbottle. Boles resisted,punched an officer in theneck and threatened the po-lice, the statement said.The officers used a stungun to subdue him.The pill bottle contained

heroin, cocaine and an anti-anxiety medication calledalprazolam, the probablecause statement said.A warrant was issued for

Bole’s arrest Jan. 11.Dozens of spectators

gathered for hours afterthe shooting outside Boles’home, braving cold rain aspolice in tactical gearscoured the home and thencleared the way for FBIcrime-scene technicians.As police began to dis-

band, bystanders beganshouting obscenities atthem. Some officers usedpolice dogs to keep the an-gry spectators at a dis-tance.

Libya’s rebels hit wallas Gadhafi forcesstop march from east

TRIPOLI, Libya (AP) — Af-ter dramatic successes overthe past weeks, Libya’s rebelmovement appears to have hita wall of overwhelming pow-er from loyalists of MoammarGadhafi. Pro-regime forceshalted their drive on Tripoliwith a heavy barrage of rock-ets in the east and threatenedTuesday to recapture the clos-est rebel-held city to the capi-tal in the west.If Zawiya, on Tripoli’s

doorstep, is ultimately retak-en, the contours of a stalematewould emerge — with Libyadivided between a largely loy-alist west and a rebel east asthe world wrestles with thethorny question of how deeplyto intervene.President Barack Obama

and British Prime MinisterDavid Cameron agreed to planfor the “full spectrum of pos-sible responses” on Libya, in-cluding imposing a no-fly zoneto prevent Gadhafi’s war-planes from striking rebels.According to a White Housestatement, the two leadersspoke Tuesday and agreedthat the objective must be anend to violence and the depar-ture of Gadhafi “as quickly aspossible.”A spokesman for the oppo-

sition’s newly created InterimGoverning Council in Beng-hazi, meanwhile, said a manwho claimed to represent Gad-hafi made contact with thecouncil to discuss terms forthe leader of four decades tostep down. Mustafa Gherianitold The Associated Press thecouncil could not be certainwhether the man was actingon his own initiative or did infact represent Gadhafi.“But our position is clear:

No negotiations with the Gad-hafi regime,” said Gheriani,who declined to say when con-tact was made or reveal theidentity of the purported en-voy.

Gates sees solidprogress on tripto war zone

COMBAT OUTPOSTSABIT QADAM, Afghanistan(AP) — The Taliban are reel-ing. U.S. and Afghan troopsare clicking. The war is goingreally well. That’s what Penta-gon chief Robert Gates heardin two days with troops andcommanders. Much less clear:the hoped-for advances in theAfghan government’s abilityto provide basic services andextend its authority beyondKabul, just months before theAmerican troop drawdown be-gins.

Gates visit-ed some of themost hotlyc o n t e s t e dparts of thec o u n t r y ,where the ef-fects of Presi-dent BarackO b a m a ’ s30,000-troopsurge have

been most keenly felt, as theObama administration consid-ers where to begin withdraw-ing and thinning out U.S.forces. The defense secre-tary’s very presence in somefar-flung combat bases wasmeant to show the progressthe U.S.-led international mil-itary force claims.“The closer you are to the

fight, the better it looks,” hetold reporters Tuesday at aU.S. combat outpost to thewest of here, in Kandaharprovince.The view from near the

front lines may be improvingnearly 10 years into the war,but it can’t obscure the centralquestion of what comes next.The search for effectiveAfghan governing — for some-one to take over the territorythe military has secured —will be a central issue as Con-gress scrutinizes Obama’s warstrategy and his commitmentto begin winding down U.S.combat involvement. The topU.S. commander in Kabul,Army Gen. David Petraeus, isscheduled to testify on CapitolHill next week.The second-ranking U.S.

commander in Afghanistan,Army Lt. Gen. David Ro-driguez, said in an interviewwith reporters Tuesday thatone reason for optimism is thatthe Taliban’s former keystrongholds of Helmand andKandahar provinces are nolonger fully in their control.

Yemeni army fires atstudent protesters,wounding at least 98

SANAA, Yemen (AP) —The Yemeni government es-calated its efforts to stopmass protests calling for thepresident’s ouster on Tues-day, with soldiers firing rub-ber bullets and tear gas atstudents camped at a univer-sity in the capital in a raidthat left at least 98 peoplewounded, officials said.The army stormed the

Sanaa University campushours after thousands of in-mates rioted at the centralprison in the capital, takinga dozen guards hostage andcalling for President Ali Ab-dullah Saleh to step down. Atleast one prisoner was killedand 80 people were woundedas the guards fought to con-trol the situation, police said.Yemen has been rocked

by weeks of protests againstSaleh, inspired by recent up-risings in Egypt and Tunisiathat drove out those nations’leaders. Saleh, a key U.S. allyin the campaign against al-Qaida, has been in power 32years. In a sign that theprotests are gaining traction,graffiti calling for Saleh tostep down surfaced Tuesdayin his birthplace, village ofSanhan, for the first timesince the protests began.Students at Sanaa Univer-

sity have been sleeping oncampus since mid-February,shortly after the start of theprotests calling for the coun-try’s president to step down.Medical officials said

many of the 98 peoplewounded were in seriouscondition. The officialsspoke on condition ofanonymity because theyweren’t authorized to releasethe information. Witnessesreported seeing armored ve-hicles and personnel carri-ers headed to the area of theuniversity.

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — ThePhiladelphia archdiocese suspended 21Roman Catholic priests Tuesday whowere named as child molestation sus-pects in a scathing grand jury reportlast month, a move that comes morethan eight years after U.S. bishopspledged swift action to keep potentialabusers away from young people.The priests have been removed

from ministry while their cases are re-viewed, Cardinal Justin Rigali said. Thenames of the priests were not being re-leased, a spokesman for the archdio-cese said.“These have been difficult weeks

since the release of the grand jury re-port,” Rigali said in a statement. “Dif-ficult most of all for victims of sexualabuse but also for all Catholics and foreveryone in our community.”The two-year grand jury investiga-

tion into priest abuse in the Archdio-cese of Philadelphia resulted in chargesagainst two priests, a former priest anda Catholic school teacher who are ac-cused of raping young boys. And in anunprecedented move in the U.S., a for-mer high-ranking church official wasaccused of transferring problempriests to new parishes without warn-ing anyone of prior sex-abuse com-plaints.Since 2002, when the national abuse

crisis erupted in the Archdiocese ofBoston, American dioceses have barredhundreds of accused clergy from pub-lic church work or removed the menpermanently from the priesthood. Theallegations against the Pennsylvaniapriests stand out because they comeyears after the U.S. bishops reformedtheir national child protection policies,promising to keep potential abusersfrom children.The grand jury named 37 priests

who remained in active ministry de-spite credible allegations of sexualabuse. After the release of the report,the second such investigation in thecity in six years, Rigali vowed to takeits calls for further reforms seriously.In addition to the 21 priests placed

on leave Tuesday, three others namedby the grand jury were suspended aweek after the report’s release in Feb-ruary. There were five other priestswho would have been suspended: onewho was already on leave, two who are“incapacitated and have not been in ac-tive ministry,” and two who no longerare priests in the archdiocese but arenow members of another religious or-der that was not identified.“The archdiocese has notified the

superiors of their religious orders andthe bishops of the dioceses where theyare residing,” the cardinal said.The remaining eight priests of the

37 in the report were not being put onleave because the latest examinationof their cases “found no further inves-tigation is warranted,” Rigali said.“I know that for many people their

trust in the church has been shaken,”Rigali stated. “I pray that the effortsof the archdiocese to address these cas-es of concern and to re-evaluate ourway of handling allegations will helprebuild that trust.”

While the archdiocese formed a pan-el to handle abuse complaints after the2005 report, the 2011 grand jury foundit mostly worked to protect the church,not the victims. Rigali responded by re-taining former city child-abuse prose-cutor Gina Maisto Smith to re-examinecomplaints made against the active-duty priests that internal church inves-tigators previously said they could notsubstantiate.“Cardinal Rigali’s actions are as

commendable as they are unprecedent-ed, and they reflect his concern for thephysical and spiritual well-being ofthose in his care,” District AttorneySeth Williams said in a statement. “Weappreciate that the Archdiocese has ac-knowledged the value of the report, andseen fit to take some of the steps calledfor by the grand jury.”The suspensions came on the eve of

Lent, the Christian period for penanceleading up to Easter.Peter Isely of the Survivors Net-

work of those Abused by Priests saidRigali should have suspended thepriests much sooner.“There’s a simple reason that dozens

of credibly accused child molestershave recklessly been kept in unsuspect-ing parishes for years, instead of be-ing promptly suspended. It’s becauseRigali and his top aides want it thatway,” he said. “They have taken andstill take steps to protect, above all else,themselves, their secrets and theirstaff, instead of their flock. That’s whattwo separate Philadelphia grand juries,working with two prosecutors, aftertwo long investigations, found over thelast six years.”Rigali’s move to suspend the priests

“was forced on him by the Philadelphiagrand jury report, and is an act of des-peration, not transparency,” TerenceMcKiernan of BishopAccountability.org said.“In Philadelphia, a Catholic official

had to be indicted before the archdio-cese finally began to comply with itsown policies,” he said. “We have no rea-son to believe that Philadelphia is un-usual — in other U.S. dioceses, credi-bly accused priests are no doubt stillin ministry, and review boards are pro-tecting priests instead of protectingchildren.”

SILVER CITY, N.M. (AP)— Authorities in New Mex-ico began escorting resi-dents into their neighbor-hoods Tuesday evening tosurvey damage left by awildfire that raced acrossnearly 1,800 acres in arugged area of the state.The human-caused fire

destroyed 13 homes, dam-aged up to 47 smaller out-buildings and forced about100 people to temporarilyleave the area, StateForestry spokesman DanWare said. Residents whowere initially asked to leavewhen the fire broke outMonday south of Silver Citywere allowed to return totheir homes late Tuesday.Officials said up to 100

structures within the burnarea and another 100 struc-tures within a quarter-mileof the fire perimeter arestill considered threatened.The Quail Ridge fire was

listed as 50 percent con-tained by Tuesday night.Officials hoped to have itfully contained by Wednes-

day evening.Ware said crews on the

ground had assessed whatwas lost or damaged beforemeeting privately withhomeowners Tuesday after-noon.Darrell Britton told Al-

buquerque television sta-tion KOAT that he lost hishome in the fire.“I had to get out of here

because it was comingfast,” he said. “I didn’t evenlook back. I just got out ofhere.”Winds picked up a bit

Tuesday afternoon, but of-ficials said the weather wasnothing compared to theprevious day when gustswhipped the flames out ofcontrol. High winds had ini-tially prevented water-dropping helicopters orplanes from flying Monday.Fire crews dealt with hot

spots throughout Tuesdaywhen fire activity was light,and two air tankers droppedfire retardant on the flamesas they moved throughgrass, scrub oak and pinon

and juniper trees.About 120 personnel

were assigned to the fire,including firefighters fromas far away as Albu-querque. About a dozen en-gines and eight water ten-ders were also helping fightthe flames.“It was a wind-driven

event that put us in a defen-sive mode,” Grant Countyfire management officerGary Benavidez told the Sil-ver City Daily Press. “(Thefire) ran through that grasssavannah extremely fast. Itwent over Quail Ridge Roadlike it wasn’t even there.”Benavidez, who has had

a long career in fire man-agement, called the fire aworst-case scenario.“It’s the fire we’ve been

talking about for years thatcould happen,” he said.“This is what we’ve beentrying to prevent. We’ve gota lot of fuels (dry grass andother vegetation), and we’rein a drought.”The Federal Emergency

Management Agency early

Tuesday approved a grantthat will cover 75 percent ofthe cost of fighting the fire.

North carolina’s freshman point guard Kendall Marshall celebrates saturday’s win over duke.

Smith, UNC awarded Associated Press

GREENSBORO — Duke’sNolan Smith is the AtlanticCoast Conference player ofthe year, and three of theleague’s other individualawards belong to regular sea-son champion North Carolina.

Roy Williams is the coachof the year, Harrison Barnesis the league’s top freshmanand John Henson is its defen-sive player of the year.

The individual award win-ners were announced Tuesdayfollowing a vote of 75 mem-bers of the Atlantic CoastSports Media Association.

Smith, a unanimous all-ACC pick, received 73 votesfor the individual honor. Heleads the league with an aver-age of 21.6 points and is theACC-record 14th Blue Devil

to win the award and firstsince J.J. Redick in 2006.

Williams received 52votes to win the coachingaward for the second time inthe ACC.

He guided the Tar Heelsto the outright regular sea-son title and the No. 1 seed inthe ACC tournament, whichbegins Thursday in Greens-boro. After losing 17 gameslast season, North Carolinabecame the first team inleague history to win theACC’s regular-season titleoutright a year after finish-ing below .500 in league play.

CHAPEL HILL — KendallMarshall always seems toknow exactly where hisNorth Carolina teammatesare, how they want the passdelivered and when to pushthe ball in transition.

It’s the steady play ex-pected from an upperclass-man — but Marshall is afreshman.

After inheriting the start-ing point guard job during abumpy midseason stretch,Marshall has looked in com-plete control as the sixth-ranked Tar Heels carry aconfident edge into the At-

lantic Coast Conferencetournament.

“At the end of the day, it’sstill basketball,” Marshallsaid Tuesday. “There arefive players on each teamcompeting, and I just like togo out there and have fun.”

The Tar Heels (24-6) are12-1 since Marshall movedinto the starting lineup andavenged their only loss bybeating reigning nationalchampion Duke to win theregular-season title. Mar-shall was a third-team all-ACC pick after leading theleague with 5.6 assists pergame.

chad Parker has a mound meeting with his West rowan Falcons. Parker took over for david Wright, who resigned earlier in the week.

South beats Wright-less WestBY MIKE LONDON

[email protected]

LANDIS — David Wright re-signed as WestRowan’s headcoach on Monday.

Wright has beendealing with stress that includes thedeath of his father in January. FrankWright’s passing was unexpected,and he and his son were close.

“David made a hard decision, apersonal decision,” said Chad Park-er, who has been tabbed to replaceWright at the helm of the Falcons.

Parker is experi-enced. He was a headcoach in Virginiaeight seasons andspent four seasons asthe head coach of theStatesville Grey-hounds.

“I came over hereto help out David asan assistant,” Parker

said. “But it’s not my first rodeo.”Wright’s four full seasons at West

were 15-11, 15-11, 15-10 and 14-12 andwere characterized by agonizinglyslow starts and fast, furious finishes.

One of East Rowan’s two losses in2010 came late in the season to a surg-ing West squad.

West has made it a habit of beingbetter at the end than at the begin-ning, and Parker hopes that trend willcontinue. West is 0-4 overall and 0-1in the NPC after losing 6-2 at SouthRowan on Tuesday.

West didn’t play a bad game, but itdug a 6-0 hole and couldn’t get out.

“But the energy and the effortwere up,” Parker said. “Two or threemore pitches go our way or we getone more hit, and we’re right there.We’ve got great kids. We’ll be fine.”

Both teams used a right-handedpitcher named Matt Miller to add tothe unusual night.

South (2-1, 1-0) got strong pitchingfrom its version of Miller and PrestonPenninger. The right-handers com-bined for 11 strikeouts and limitedthe Falcons to five hits.

“West battled us hard, made usplay right down to the last pitch,”South coach Thad Chrismon said. “Wewon because our pitchers threw a lotof great pitches and we played a veryclean defensive game behind them.”

Ohio State suspends coach two games for NCAA violationBY RUSTY MILLER

Associated Press

COLUMBUS, Ohio — OhioState suspended football coachJim Tressel for two games andfined him $250,000 on Tuesday forviolating NCAA rules by failing tonotify the school about informa-tion he received involving twoplayers and questionable activi-ties involving the sale of memo-rabilia.

Sophomore lefty Justin Evans started on the mound for WestRowan in Tuesday’s loss to South Rowan.

West’s young southpaw starting pitcherJustin Evans worked out of a major messin the first — South had two on with noneout — and it was still scoreless heading tothe bottom of the third. That’s when Southput four on the board to take charge.Singles by Dylan Goodman and Tyler

Kowalczyk and a walk to Eric Tyler filledthe bases with one out. Jacob Dietz took ballfour — a little high — to force home thegame’s first run, and that brought Pen-ninger, a four-year varsity veteran who hasa penchant for clutch hits, to the plate.“He had two strikes on me, so I just tried

to keep my hands in and not swing toohard,” Penninger explained.Penninger whipped a solid double into

the left-field corner to score two. Dietzstopped at third on the hit and scored fromthere on a wild pitch.“We talk about making ’em pay when

we’ve got that chance for a big inning,”Chrismon said. “Huge hit by Preston.”South stretched its lead to 6-0 in the

fourth on a run-scoring single by Tyler anda run-scoring wild pitch, but West’s MattMiller shut the Raiders out the rest of theway and gave his team a chance to rally.West had its chance to make a charge in

the fifth when it produced three hits andtwo walks and South contributed two wildpitches, but the Falcons could only scoretwo runs. Ethan Wansley had an RBI sin-gle, and Penninger wild-pitched the otherrun home after he relieved Miller.But Penninger also got the biggest out

of the game, retiring West veteran Patrick

Hampton on a strikeout to escape the fifthwith runners at second and third.“I knew I had a base open and didn’t have

to give him a fastball,” Penninger said. “Igot the big strikeout on a backdoor break-ing ball.”Penninger shut out West in the sixth and

seventh. He earned the save. Miller, whofanned five of the first eight Falcons hefaced, picked up his first win of the year.“I was just throwing a lot of fastballs on

the outside corner or a few inches off it,”Miller said. “My catcher (Tyler) did a greatjob of keeping that target out there.”

But Marshall deflects credit for theTar Heels’ rise, even after his master-ful 15-point, 11-assist performanceagainst the Blue Devils that gave UNCthe top seed in this week’s tournamentin Greensboro.

Ask him when things started toclick, he’ll point to the aftermath of a20-point loss at Georgia Tech in Janu-ary. Point out that he took over thestarting job after that game, he’ll callit “a coincidence.”

“Maybe it did make our team bet-ter, me moving into the starting line-up,” Marshall said. “But at the sametime, we went out there and every-body bought into the fact that theywanted to win badly.”

North Carolina coach Roy Williamssaid he considered replacing LarryDrew II — who quit the team fourgames after losing his starting job —with Marshall earlier only to back offwhen Marshall had a brief dip. Butwhen Marshall regrouped, Williamsmade the move.

“Our team needed something,”Williams said. “I didn’t want to just sitthere and say, ‘OK, well, it’s going toget better.’ Well, it’s not going to getbetter sometimes. I’d rather be proac-

tive and try to do something.“He accepted that challenge and re-

ally took it upon himself to really ex-pect more out of himself, to try to domore and try to be more perfect. ...He’s done an amazing job. It’s one ofthe best step forwards I’ve seen afreshman take.”

Joe Wootten, his coach at BishopO’Connell High School in Arlington,Va., said Marshall’s recent play isreminiscent of how Marshall elevatedhis game to close his senior yearthere.

“The game seemed to slow down forhim and he just found that perfect fitof when to pass and when to shoot it,”Wootten said. “I watched the (Duke)game the other night and you could seethat same level of confidence in him.

“For all that he’s been praised now,at times when he was in high school,people would question how well did hescore or how quick he was. UltimatelyRoy Williams didn’t recruit him for allthose things. They recruited him forwhat he’s doing right now.”

Marshall isn’t blessed with blazingspeed or impressive athleticism, but hehas good size at 6-foot-3 and has acrafty first step while playing with apass-first mentality. He has terrifictouch on the ball, too, particularly onpitch aheads that are a perfect fit inWilliams’ fast-paced offense.

It took time for his teammates to

learn to be ready for his passes. Mar-shall chuckles when recalling a pick-and-roll pass he threw right by TylerZeller’s face in an offseason pickupgame, but he’s rarely missing now.

In his first game after Drew’s de-parture, Marshall had 16 assists andthree turnovers against one of theleague’s better defenses in a rout ofFlorida State. He showed a little ofeverything against Duke, from a per-fect downcourt heave to Leslie McDon-ald for a first-half layup following amade basket to a bullet from behindthe arc and through the Duke defenseto Zeller for a layup.

“Any time he’s driving, you neverknow when he’s going to throw a littlewraparound pass,” Zeller said. “But thenice part about his passes, when hedoes throw a very close pass, it’ll justdrop right there. It’s not hard, it’s easyto catch and usually you’re wide openso you just lay it up.”

If Marshall keeps rolling, the TarHeels believe it will be another goodMarch.

“It was fun playing the underdog forthe last two months, sneaking up onpeople and showing where we want tobe and fighting our way to the top,”Marshall said. “But now that we’re upthere, this will show more characterwe have. Are we able to go out thereand compete every single time whenall eyes are on us?”

Newton looks goodAssociated Press

AUBURN, Ala. — HeismanTrophy winner Cam Newtonwaited more than four hourswhile his Auburn teammateswent through their drills atpro day.

Then came the 48-minutegrand finale, where the quar-terback once again put hisarm and footwork on displaybefore dozens of NFL offi-cials. Newton felt he had plen-ty to prove after drawing less-than-rave reviews for histhrowing session at the com-bine.

“Every single day I feellike I have coaching pointers,”the 6-foot-5, 248-pounder said.“The combine was no differ-ent. I left there not happy withmy performance but came outtoday and wanted to focus onthe things I didn’t do well atthe combine.”

That means making pass-es on patterns like come-backs, posts and out routesand being more consistent inmaking the transition fromthe spread to prostyle offens-es. His performance drewsome nice reviews.

“It was way better than thecombine,” NFL Network ana-lyst Mike Mayock said. “I sawwhat I expected to see. He’s abig-armed kid. He’s workingreal hard on his footwork. Byno means is he a finishedproduct. Like any spreadquarterback, he’s got a longway to go with his footwork.

“His footwork hasn’tcaught up with his arm yet.He’s working hard. Thethrows I was most impressedwith were the ones I wantedto see, which were the deepins, the skinny posts, the deepcomebacks. Those are thethrows you don’t see a lot inthe spread offense.”

There were 125 NFL offi-cials, including five head

coaches, at the 51/2-hour proday, Auburn said. That in-cludes new Carolina coachRon Rivera, whose team hasthe first overall pick thatsome buzz has indicated mightgo to either Newton or Auburndefensive tackle Nick Fairley.

Rivera declined to com-ment on the afternoon, butpraised Newton at the com-bine.

Newton and Fairley bothparticipated only in the posi-tion drills and let their 40times and other performanc-es from the combine stand.

That meant a long wait forboth, who went back-to-backat the end. Newton chattedwith NFL types — includingRivera — and former team-mates, shagged field goals andbasically hung out until histime came.

Even with all the focus onhis throws, he offered bothwide smiles and banter to peo-ple on the sidelines.

Unofficially, he threw 53passes with receivers runningroutes and completed 42 ofthem with a few drops andseveral overthrows, includinga couple on deep sidelineroutes. He was 10 for 10 be-fore that.

His personal coach, GeorgeWhitfield Jr., called out achecklist of plays and thenasked if there were any morethat NFL officials wanted tosee.

“That was his routine to-day. Go through it. Attackeverything,” said Whitfield,who has been working withNewton in San Diego. “And Ithought he did that. He hadfun. He’s laughing, he’s play-ing. I kind of think playingback here at Jordan-Hare(Stadium) maybe added a lit-tle bit to his comfort level, andhey, he’s a very, very proudathlete and he’s a very com-petitive guy.”

Negotiations meander onAssociated Press

WASHINGTON — The NFL Players As-sociation retained an international invest-ment bank to help it decide whether theleague's offer to reveal more financial in-formation during negotiations will beenough to satisfy the union's call for fulldisclosure.

Zeroing in on the crux of the labor dis-pute — how to split $9 billion in revenues— one NFLPA executive committee mem-ber, Cleveland Browns linebacker ScottFujita, said in a telephone interview Tues-day with The Associated Press and NFLNetwork that what the NFL has turnedover to the union so far "hasn't been suffi-cient.

Another executive committee member,Indianapolis Colts center Jeff Saturday,said as he left Tuesday's 91⁄2-hour media-tion session that the bank would "helpjudge how helpful the material they wereoffering to give us" would be.

Aries (March 21-April 19) — Things willwork out far better for you if you don’t adver-tise your intentions to anybody. It behoovesyou to keep a low profile and walk softlythrough the crowds.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) — It’s to your ad-vantage to look ahead so that you can effec-tively begin to blend your present interestswith what you hope to accomplish sometimedown the line.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) — Be sure thatwhat you say and do leaves a favorable im-pression on your companions, because thereare indications that these impressions will dic-tate the kind of relationship you’ll have withothers.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) — Because yourmental processes are likely to be operating atfull speed, you could be bombarded with a pro-fusion of constructive thought. Write thingsdown so you’ll remember them for posterity.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Finding solutionscould be rather easy for you, because you’llhave a special aptitude for ferreting out theroot causes of vexing problems. Do what yourbrain dictates.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Keep an openmind when talking to your mate or specialsomeone. Chances are s/he will have sugges-tions to offer that will be extremely advanta-geous for you to consider.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — A frustrating prob-lem concerning your work or career that hasbeen plaguing you lately could suddenly makea major shift for the better. All you’ll have todo is hop on board.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — If you hang outwith certain people who act and think in pro-gressive terms, it will have a marvelous af-fect on your outlook and behavior. Let yourhair down a bit and have fun.

Sagittarius (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — There is noreason why you need to settle for the statusquo. If you have a different way of doing some-thing that you believe would be better, don’thesitate to give it a try.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Rely as muchon your mental abilities as you do your phys-ical ones, if you find yourself involved in somekind of competitive activity. Using your headgives you an edge.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — Although mostthings in general should turn out favorablyfor you, you’re likely to be luckiest in activi-ties that involve your material affairs. Makehay while the sun shines.

mentary on television recent-ly about mesothelioma. Thissounds simply awful andwould like to know more aboutthe topic. Can you fill in theblanks?

Dear Reader:Mesotheliomais a rare form of cancer that

lines a per-son’s organsand is the re-sult of leadpaint and as-bestos expo-sure and,rarely, radia-tion exposure.There arethree forms —plural, peri-cardial andpe r i t o n e a l .

The pleural form affects thechest cavity and makes upmore than 70 percent of all re-ported cases. The peritonealform affects the stomach cav-ity, and the pericardial formoccurs in the outside liningsof the heart.

W.R. Grace Company inLibby, Mont., processed ver-miculite from a mine that con-tained tremolite, a form of as-bestos. The EnvironmentalProtection Agency initiated amajor cleanup in 1999 becauseof contamination of soil andareas outside homes andbuildings. They are now con-centrating on smaller sourcesof the contaminant and aremeasuring the effectivenessof that cleanup. In 2005, sev-en W.R. Grace executives andmanagers were indicted on 10federal criminal counts ofknowingly endangering theresidents of the town and con-cealing information regardingthe health effects of the com-pany’s mining operations. Fur-

thermore, the defendants arealso accused of wire fraud andobstructing the government’scleanup efforts.

Asbestos exposure is not anew topic. By World War II,the shipbuilding industrycommonly used asbestos to in-sulate pipes and boilers. Therewere issues then. Since thattime, asbestos has been uti-lized in countless products.

In the mid-1920s, the as-bestos industry settled its firstclaim. In the 40 years that fol-lowed, the industry attemptedto conceal the dangers of as-bestos from the public andfrom the very people whoworked in their facilities. It isreported the industry didn’tfight any further claims incourt (likely because of mediaexposure). Instead, they choseto pay asbestos-related settle-ments under worker’s-compen-sation claims. By 1930, the in-dustry was completely awaretheir product was literallykilling a number of employees.Typical of big industry, as-bestos products continued to besold. There was good money tobe made, and those worker’s-compensation claims had to bepaid. Still, no one in the busi-ness admitted to wrongdoing.

It took until 1966, nearly 40years later, for an asbestos law-suit to be filed on behalf of aclient. This was followed in1974 by detailed information onhow asbestos manufacturersformed a conspiracy to devisemethods to deal with the haz-ards and keeping the informa-tion secret from their employ-ees and the general public. Thisnewfound information becamethe foundation upon which fu-ture cases were built.

When a person breathes inasbestos, the fibers settle in the

lungs. The lungs are unable torid themselves of the offend-ing minerals. While there arelow levels in the air we breathe,the levels are insignificant anddo not cause problems; howev-er, people working in industriessuch as shipbuilding, automo-bile manufacturing, firefight-ing, asbestos removal and oth-ers are at extremely high risk.

The condition can causechest pain, cough, hemoptysis,shortness of breath, weightloss, ascites (fluid buildup inthe abdomen), bowel obstruc-tion, anemia, fever, abdominalmasses, severe bleeding inbody organs, jaundice, pleuraleffusion, arterial blood clots inthe lungs, pleural tumors onone side of the lungs and more.

Testing with CT scans,MRIs or lung biopsy can deter-mine the extent of any lungdamage.

United FeatUre Syndicate

To take 13 tricks, find 13 winnersBY PHILLIP ALDER

United Feature Syndicate

Whenever you reach agrand slam, there is no pointcounting losers — you can’tafford any. Instead, find 13winners. Well, which 13catch your eye in this sev-en-spade contract?

I like North’s two-no-trump response because itdescribes a balanced handwith at least eight high-cardpoints. I know this is out offavor because if the finalcontract is in no-trump, thewrong hand might be play-ing it. However, suppose thebidding starts two clubs -two diamonds - three clubs.What would happen afterthat? A lot of confusion, itseems to me. Remember, ifNorth now bids three hearts,

that shows a five-card suit.You start with 12 top tricks:

four spades, one heart, two di-amonds and five clubs. Youcould try the diamond finesse,but there is a much better op-tion: a heart ruff in your hand.Win with dummy’s heart aceand trump a heart with yourspade three. Then, cash yourtop trumps, play a club todummy’s 10, draw East’s lastspade, discarding your dia-mond jack, and claim the lastsix tricks with your diamondsand clubs.

Phillip Alder is teachingduring the American ContractBridge League’s Sectional atSea from July 19 to 26 aboardCunard’s Queen Elizabeth.The cruise starts and ends inSouthampton, England, andgoes to the Norwegian fjordsand the North Cape. Detailsare at www.phillipalder-bridge.com.

Get the Whole Picture at wunderground.com—The Best Known Secret in Weather™

Tim RocheWundergroundMeteorologist

Strong thunderstorms will move eastward on Wednesday as low pressure trekking through the middle of the country pushes towards the Atlantic Ocean. The severe weather associated with this storm will be less intense than what blew through the region on Tuesday, but a few isolated areas of large hail, high winds, or even tornadoes are possible, especially along the Gulf Coast from Louisiana Westward. Heavy rain is also anticipated throughout the Southeast and into the Appalachians and Great Lakes. The Mid-Atlantic and Northeast will likely be spared much precipitation prior to nightfall, although clouds will begin to roll in late in the day. As the storm moves to the east, temperatures on its backside will drop substantially. Clear skies will accompany the cool temperatures behind the storm, with dry weather likely through to the southern California coast. The Northwest will see cloud cover and rain as a Pacific storm pushes ashore in southern Canada. This storm will send heavy precipitation to the Washington coast, with relatively warm temperatures keeping snow levels high.
