Astronomy club works on night moves at ‘star parties’ BY JAMES CARLI II

For the Salisbury Post

ou don’t have to be Carl Sagan or Mr. Spock to appreciate the vastness of outer space. It’s big. Mindblowingly big. And right here in Rowan County is a group of astronomy enthusiasts who enjoy exploring these vast reaches with zeal rivaling that of any Ivy League scientist or Starfleet officer. The Astronomical Society of Rowan County was founded in the summer of 1981 by retired teacher Ellen Trexler, chemist Grady Withers and photographer Jim Torrence. This club, which today has about 50 members, originally met at the Margaret Woodson Planetarium at the Horizons Unlimited science museum on Parkview Circle in Salisbury. It now holds regular meetings the last Saturday of every month at the home of sibling members Alice and Ralph Deal, on Deal Road between Enochville and Mooresville. Members come from all walks of life. Some are teachers, others are students, one is a nuclear engineer and some are retired. The thing that brings all these people together is a love for watching the planets and the stars. At their most recent meeting, members of the Astronomical Society met at the Deal residence for socializing, to talk about recent astronomical events like the discovery by the Hubble Space Telescope of the oldest object in space ever observed (a galaxy nearly 13 billion years old), and to stargaze. At this “star party,” as such events are called, member Roger Overcash exclaimed, “Betelgeuse is about to go supernova!” eliciting an animated response from several members. The star, which is pronounced Beetlejuice, is in the Orion constellation and can be seen in the eastern night sky just after sunset. Before setting up outside, the group discussed important issues facing astronomy and stargazing today, such as light pollution, the leaking of ambient light from populated areas into the night sky. Alice Deal showed off her sack of meteorites, and members Danny Hepler and Barbara Barrier held up a large map of the surface of the moon. As the sun set, these amateur astronomers set up a number of telescopes and astronomical binoculars in the front yard, and the group of space enthusiasts mingled and wandered from scope to scope, each pointed at different objects in the night sky. The group’s largest telescope, a 15-inchdiameter lens reflector scope similar to

Athletic padding and mat manufacturer Promats Athletics is moving to a new facility this month, ensuring the company will stay in Salisbury, its parent company said in a press release. Delhi, N.Y.-based Sportsfield Specialties Inc., paid $625,000 for a 60,000square-foot plant on 10 acres at 1455 Harrison Road, according to a document on file with the Rowan County Register of Deeds. Promats will move from its current location on South Main Street, where the company has done business since 2001. Sports equipment manufacturer Sportsfield bought Promats in 2007, prompting speculation the Salisbury company’s operations would be moved to New York. This move solidifies Promats’ place in Salisbury and upgrades its facilities, the company said. “We’ve known for some time that we needed an upgraded facility with the and space layout that be would more effiand cient w o r k e r friendly” said Wayne Oliver, president of Sportsfield Specialties. “Our new location will also provide WAYNE OLIVER more convenpresident of Sportsfield ient access Specialties, parent compafor truck de- ny of Promats since 2007 liveries and pickups and thus eliminate many of the local traffic issues we faced at the old facility on South Main Street.” The new Promats plant is near the Food Lion Customer Support Center. It provides more design and manufacturing space than the 50,000-square-foot facility on South Main Street, as well as more offices and restrooms for around 35 year-round employees. Oliver said the company should complete its move and be up and running in its new facility by mid-February. Promats had been at the South Main Street location, a former Cone Mills warehouse, since moving there a decade ago from a 10,000-square-foot leased facility as its business took off. The company had headquarters and another facility in Fort Collins, Colo., but consolidated operations in Salisbury several years ago. Promats makes protective athletic padding and mats, and its products have been used in professional venues such as Yankee Stadium and New Meadowlands Stadium and college fields including those at Wake Forest and Duke universities.

Historic Salisbury Foundation sold four properties in 2010, a remarkable accomplishment considering the economy, the real estate director said. The foundation had to contend not only with a terrible housing market, but also a niche market for buyers interested in historic properties sold with protective covenants, said Gwen Matthews, director of historic properties. Matthews updated the Andrew Jackson Society last week during an event where Anne Lyles and her family were honored for their preservation work in the Brooklyn-South Square Historic District.

tate agents to stop deterring people from buying homes in historic districts. “We have wonderful people living right here and putting time and effort and money and love into these properties,” said Lyles, who has served on the city’s Historic Preservation Commission for seven years. The four family members have done nearly all the work in their properties themselves. “It is an example of do-ityourself, grassroots historic preservation like few others in the entire state of North Carolina,” said Greg Shields, a board member for Historic Salisbury Foundation who presented the award. “Anne, Preston, Karl and Ken, if you can put your paint brush and hammer down long enough to take your award, we honor you with the 2010 Clement Cup.” The family’s historic preservation efforts began in 1990, when Preston Sale and Weaver purchased 425 E. Bank St. from Historic Salisbury Foundation and rehabilitated it. In 1991, Lyles purchased the Huff-Wells House at 409 E. Bank St., built in 1892 by prosperous grocer W.H. Huff. The house retains original floors, wainscoting, beaded board walls, mantels, half-barrel ceiling in hallway and decorative spandrel and is said to be haunted by a ghost that speaks softly and opens and shuts doors. In 1997, Karl Sale purchased and rehabilitated 313 S. Shaver St. in an area suffering from neglect. The house nearly had been destroyed by fire. In 2000, Lyles and Karl Sale rescued a Victorian cottage and one-time crack house at 429 E. Fisher St. from the bulldozer. A year later, Preston Sale and Weaver worked to clean up and enhance the lot and buildings at 208 S. Shaver St., built by Charles Rufty. They also purchased a duplex at 204 S. Shaver St. and transformed the former trouble spot into an attractive, livable property. In 2002, Preston Sale and Weaver purchased the pivotal

Jennifer Carter said her daughter, Kate, was torn when she found out the event was scheduled on the same day she was supposed to meet U.S. Rep. Howard Coble, R-6th. “We had to come straight back to school,” Jennifer Carter said. “She even told Congressman Coble about it.” Kate said it was definitely worth it to be there. “Mrs. Clark was a hideous mess and she made herself a mohawk,” she said.

Local legislators target employers who hire illegal immigrants Two state legislators representing Rowan County are sponsoring a bill prohibiting state and local government contracts with businesses that employ illegal immigrants. N.C. Reps. Harry Warren and Fred Steen are backing the bill, which would require contractors to verify and certify their employees’ legal status or work authorization. In the N.C. Senate, Andrew Brock is sponsoring a bill called the Castle Doctrine, which clarifies when a person may use defensive force against an unlawful intruder. State law currently states that this force is allowed if the occupant reasonably thinks the intruder will kill someone, inflict serious bodily harm or commit a felony in the home. The Senate bill would add more definitions and specifications to the law, and it would protect a person using force under this law from civil prosecution as well as criminal action. Brock also is a sponsor of a bill to place a moratorium on involuntary annexation, which mirrors one filed in the House last week. The moratorium would prohibit municipalities from conducting involuntary annexations through June 30, 2012.

Two 20-year-olds charged with vandalizing multiple vehicles and mailboxes with baseball bats in a neighborhood just south of Salisbury last year were found guilty Friday. Corey Levi Duran and William Nathaniel York were charged in June with 13 counts of injury to personal property. York was also charged with possession of marijuana and possession of drug DURAN paraphernalia. District Court Judge Bill Kluttz found Duran and York guilty after a trial without a jury. Both men gave notice of appeal, requesting a jury trial in Superior Court. Both men were YORK sentenced to 18 months of supervised probation and were ordered to pay restitution to the victims, many of whom testified this week. The victims all live within about two miles of each other and told the court of the various damages to their vehicles or mailboxes. Julie Pyle of Miller Chapel Road testified Friday about the $2,000 it cost to repair her 2007 Chrysler Pacifica. Pyle said she was awakened along with her husband, James, about 2:30 a.m. to what she believed to be gunshots or a vehicle collision. When the couple ran to the door they saw the windows to their car were shattered and the rear door was damaged. The Pyles called 911 and waited outside nearly two hours for a response.

Driver hurt when cars hits pole BY SARAH CAMPBELL scampbell@salisburypost.com

One man was hospitalized Friday after his car veered off the road and hit a utility pole on St. Paul’s Church Road, near Glover Road in southern Rowan County. Emergency responders had to call Duke Energy crews to assist with downed power-lines before rescuing the driver. “When we got here we used a hot stick to determine that the lines were still energized,” Bobby Burleyson, deputy chief of the South Salisbury Fire Department said. “Once Duke secured the power, rescue crews were able to extricate the victim.” The name of the driver was un-

available Friday. Crews worked for about 30 minutes to free the man from the vehicle, removing the right passenger door to free him. The driver was taken to Rowan Regional Medical Center. Burleyson said when he arrived on the scene the man was “conscious, alert and oriented.” Rowan County EMS, Rowan County Rescue, N.C. State Highway Patrol and South Rowan Fire Department responded to the scene. “It was a good operation,” Burleyson said. “Everybody worked together really well to get the man out the vehicle.” Contact reporter Sarah Campbell at 704-797-7683.

HINA GROVE — Principal Lisa Sigmon and media-assistant Jeanette Clark are willing to do almost anything to get students at Bostian Elementary School excited about school. That includes allowing students to pour chocolate syrup, caramel, whipped cream and walnuts on them before adding a cherry to the top of their heads. “I’m pretty much willing to do whatever the kids come up with,” Sigmon said. “I’ve spent the day on the roof before and let them tape me to the wall.” Amy Monday’s second-grade class and Julia Caudle’s thirdgraders turned the women into human ice-cream sundaes as a reward for bringing in the most Box Tops for Education, Labels for Education and Coke Rewards points.

The 911 dispatcher told Julie Pyle authorities were responding to similar calls that night, which caused the slow response time. Donna Larose noticed damage to her 1987 Oldsmobile at her Shue Road home when she got home from work about 3:30 or 4 a.m., she testified. Windows were broken and there were dents in a side mirror. The repairs would cost her about $420, according to an estimate. She has not repaired the car yet. Rafael Hernandez who also lives on Miller Chapel Road said three vehicles were damaged.

STATES FROM 3a Angeles think tank which has written models of legislation that states-rights lawmakers could introduce. Other model legislation claims state supremacy in environmental regulation and drug control. Rep. Paul Luebke, a senior Democrat and author of the book “Tar Heel Politics 2000,” isn’t concerned about the expression of state sovereignty. “I see this as a stronger dose of traditionalism against any active role of the federal government in the economy,” said Luebke, D-Durham. The proposals add North Carolina to a national movement trying to limit federal authority through action in state capitals. Most of the tug between federal and state authority is coming from conser-

The officers caught Sellers after he SELLERS broke into the basement of a house on North Franklin Street, police said. Sellers was served with outstanding warrants from Cabarrus County on a larceny charge and Iredell County on charges of breaking and entering, trespassing and resisting arrest. China Grove police also charged Sellers with resisting a public officer and he faces another charge in connection with breaking into the Franklin Street home, police said. Sellers, 30, of 5811 Sherrills Ford Road, remained in the Rowan County jail Friday under a $7,000 bond. China Grove Police Chief Eddie Kluttz noted that officers verified the active warrants for Sellers on NCAWARE, a database that went online in Rowan in September and allows officers statewide to see all warrants, magistrate orders, criminal summonses and orders for arrest. Since then, China Grove has used that information to make 24 arrests and serve 52 warrants.

When Jeffrey Vail saw two men tampering with machinery on his property on Crowder Dixon Road on Wednesday, he immediately called police. When Deputy Randy Johnson and Detective Adam Loflin arrived on the scene they found Michael Lynn Beck, 25, of Salisbury cutting wire from an old washer and dryer unit, said Capt. John Sifford. The second man, Michael Dickert Osborne, 23, was found near a truck that had copper wiring in the bed, along with a washing machine motor. After searching the men, the officers also found Beck,

A traffic stop near the corner of Horah and Partee streets yielded a handgun that Salisbury Police said was reported stolen by a deputy with the Davie County Sheriff’s Office. Salisbury Police Chief Rory Collins said officers W.S. Gibson and Mark Hunter pulled over Ignacio Borja after noticing a burned-out headlight on a car about 7:15 p.m. Thursday. The officers searched the vehicle after smelling marijuana. No drugs were found, Collins said, but officers found a stolen .380caliber pistol. Borja, 21, of 164 Mahaley Ave., was charged with possession of stolen goods. was He placed in the Rowan Coun- BORJA ty Detention Center under a $500 secured bond. The passenger, Claymore Christopher Jones Jr., 22, of 705 E. Council St., Apt. B, was JONES charged with possession of stolen goods and possession of a firearm by a felon. He was placed in the detention center under a $10,000 bond.

Toyota Tercel — have not yet been repaired. Deborah McBride of Meadow Lane testified of the damage to her mailbox. She replaced the box which cost $63. McBride also found her neighbor’s broken mailbox in the ditch. Anita Yost testified that two of her family’s vehicles — a 2007 Honda Accord and a 2004 Ford Expedition both had broken windows. It also appeared someone walked on the hood of the Honda. Yost said she and her husband were without their vehicles for three weeks. She and her husband had to pay more than $2,000 to repair the Expedition and an insurance deductible of $1,000 for the Honda. She estimated the damage occurred between 3:30 a.m. and 4 a.m. because her dog barked and she heard a noise. She assumed it was her neighbor who typically left for work around that time.

Both Duran and York testified that they were at a friend’s house on Bramblewood Drive much of the night, leaving about 3:30 a.m. Assistant District Attorney Rosalee Hart-Morrison asked the two how they were sure of the time. Duran said he had looked at his phone about a half-hour before to leaving the home of Andrew Reed. Duran said asked York to take him home after a gathering with friends at Reed’s home. Others in the group including York’s girlfriend, Ashton Honbarger, and Reed’s exgirlfriend, Jessica Peters. All testified both Duran and York where with them all night. They all insisted the gathering was not a party. York’s attorney, Todd Paris, and Duran’s attorney, Zack Snyder, both asked that the case be dismissed for lack of evidence, citing a lack of surveillance video or a clear description of the vehicle sup-

posedly seen in the area. Snyder said there was no paint on the aluminum baseball bat found in York’s car, nor was any broken glass found. Hart-Morrison questioned why York had a baseball bat in his car that he hadn’t used since he played ball when he was 11. Some of the friends who testified said they were not entirely certain what time Duran and York left, though they recalled going outside to look for York’s lost vehicle keys, which were found inside Reed’s home. They said the keys were found about 30 minutes after Duran said he was ready to leave. Deputy Mike Dixon, who stopped York’s vehicle, said York seemed nervous that night. York acknowledged he was nervous because there was marijuana in his car. Contact reporter Shavonne Potts at 704-797-4253.

vatives, though more than a dozen states, most of them liberal-leaning, now allow the use of marijuana for medical purposes, even though it is prohibited under federal law. Measures in Texas and New Hampshire would exempt locally made guns and ammunition made in those states from federal regulation. Virginia’s House of Delegates approved a measure to exempt any goods made and sold within the state from federal law and federal oversight. Utah legislators last year passed a law allowing the state to claim federal lands through eminent domain. A new proposal would void any federal land designation made without the Legislature’s approval. More than 70 percent of the state’s territory is managed by the federal government. Republican lawmakers in

nearly a dozen states from Idaho to Alabama are fighting President Obama’s health care overhaul law by introducing measures that hinge the theory that states are entitled to “nullify” federal authority. While a fundamentally conservative and rural state, North Carolina has a tradition dating to the mid-20th Century of being more liberal than its Southern neighbors on race relations, education policy and industrial development, said Gibbs Knotts, who co-edited the book “The New Politics of North Carolina.” The state was one of the few in the South to favor Barack Obama for president, but reaction against his administration and bad economic conditions swept Republicans into control in the General Assembly for the first time in more than a century. “In 2011, North Carolina is a highly competitive two-par-

ty state. There are definitely some progressive elements, but traditionalism is still important in the state. There are still a lot of conservative voters that are very leery of big government and not supportive of expanding the size of government at this time,” said Knotts, the head of Western Carolina University’s political science and public affairs department. “It can be an uphill battle to overturn federal law, but it doesn’t mean that some people aren’t trying,” he said. House Speaker Thom Tillis, R-Mecklenburg, said he wasn’t familiar with Cleveland and Bradley’s proposals, but said they would be vetted within GOP ranks to see whether they conform with broader Republican goals. “This election cycle has produced a lot of diversity of thought. That is very healthy,” he said.

Lejeune victims of tainted water may get help RALEIGH (AP) — North Carolina’s U.S. senators are backing legislation to care for people whose health problems may be linked to tainted water at Camp Lejeune. Sen. Richard Burr introduced a bill Thursday that would require the Department of Veterans Affairs to provide health care for veterans and family members with problems stemming from contaminated water at the Marine Corps base. Sen. Kay Hagan says she’ll co-sponsor the bill. Wells at Camp Lejeune were contaminated by fuel leaks and other sources from the 1950s to the 1980s. Health officials think as many as 1 million people may have been exposed.

Stolen iPhone located in Texas A Catawba college student’s iPhone took an early spring-break trip to Baybrook, Texas, and got a facelift upon arrival. Salisbury Police Chief Rory Collins said Rebecca Lucille Scott reported the phone stolen Thursday after receiving an e-mail from an Apple store confirming the screen had be repaired. Scott told police the phone has been missing since Saturday, after she was at a friend’s room in Fuller Hall getting ready for a winter formal. She had been looking for the phone all week, then she got the e-mail. Collins said Scott called the store to find out who brought the phone in for repairs, but the store could not disclose that information and suggested she contact police. The case is still under investigation. It was unclear whether Scott would get her phone back.

A Concord woman who forgot to turn on her headlights ended up behind bars early Friday morning. Salisbury Police Chief Rory Collins said Officer K.H. Boehm noticed a car without its headlights on in the left-turn lane on Mahaley Avenue, preparing to head east on Innes Street about 2:45 a.m. Collins said Boehm flashed his lights at the vehicle to let the driver know her lights were off, but she continued on without turning them on. Boehm then stopped the car and found the driver, Emily Lauren Jones, was drunk, Collins said. “He also detected the odor of marijuana JONES coming from the vehicle,” Collins said. Boehm called a police dog to the scene to search the vehicle. Inside the center console Boehm found two glass jars, one with marijuana and the other with a marijuana stem and a smoking pipe. Jones, 26, has been charged with driving while impaired, possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia.

Burned-out taillight catches police attention A burned-out taillight led Salisbury Police to a sex offender who was wanted on a charge of failing to register his new address. Officer W.A. Lane noticed the right-rear taillight was out on a 2004 Kia Optima leaving the Economy Inn on Bendix Drive about 9 a.m. Thursday, police said. Salisbury Police Chief Rory Collins said that after Donnie Donnell Fleming, 34, of 500 E. Cemetery St. was pulled over, he admitted he did not have a driver’s license. Collins said Lane recognized one of the passengers from a previous drug activity and requested consent to search the car. During the search, Lane found three pipes in the glove compartment that were used to smoke crack cocaine, the report said. A plas- FLEMING tic bag containing cocaine was also found. Fleming was charged with possession of a controlled substance, possession of drug paraphernalia, driving without a license and failing to register as a sex offender. He was in the Rowan County Detention Center under a $30,500 bond.

State’s top court rejects Google lawsuit RALEIGH (AP) — North Carolina’s Supreme Court rejected a lawsuit Friday filed by a few taxpayers who challenged tens of millions of dollars in tax breaks used to lure Google Inc. to Caldwell County. Justices did not explain their decision that allows a lower ruling to stand. The state Court of Appeals ruled last year that three taxpayers were not adversely affected by the tax breaks, so they could not sue. “I’m disappointed that the court isn’t going to decide the case,” said Bob Orr, executive director of the North Carolina Institute for Constitutional Law, which argued the case on behalf of the taxpayers. By Orr’s reading of the court of appeals ruling, the

only people who would even qualify to challenge tax breaks are people who actually receive the tax breaks. Orr has argued that the tax breaks are unfair because it forces other taxpayers to pay more. Lawyers for Google and the state have argued that the taxpayers failed to show they were discriminated against. An attorney for Google contended that the incentives are no different than a variety of tax breaks given around the state to farmers, manufacturers and others. In order to lure Google to build an Internet data center in Lenoir, state lawmakers approved exemptions from the state’s retail sales and use tax that could be worth an estimated $90 million over 30 years.

DARTS AND LAURELS

Riding the DNC wave Laurels to local officials and businesses who’ve quickly seized on the potential for Rowan County to get an economic boost from the 2012 Democratic National Convention in Charlotte. Salisbury and environs may be in an ideal position — close enough for its hotels, restaurants and tourist attractions to enjoy the ride but distant enough to avoid the logistical complexities of running the show for at least 35,000 visitors (the estimated number who descended on Denver for the 2008 DNC). Along with wooing delegates and other conventioneers, here’s something else to consider. The DNC will bring a mob of media types to Charlotte. The Denver convention attracted about 15,000 media personnel — representing all corners of the globe — and that was before the explosion in social media that has since occurred. Weeks and even months before the event itself, they’ll be scouting the Charlotte region, looking for interesting stories to tell — stories that capture the flavor of the Piedmont, as well as the tenor of election-year politics. What are Salisbury and Rowan’s best stories — the ones that are unique to this community? • • • Dart to aviation’s latest worry — people who point handheld lasers at pilots of aircraft as they take off and land. Unfortunately, we’re not simply talking about a handful of harmless pranks. When the FAA records almost 3,000 such incidents in a single year, it’s a serious issue — one that can leave pilots temporarily impaired or, worse, with permanent vision damage. While lasers haven’t been cited yet in a serious crash, it may just be a matter of time. A proposal to make this a federal crime with a five-year prison term won’t deter terrorists or others with malicious intent, but it might help some foolish pranksters see the light. • • • Laurels to the teens who got a sobering taste of the dangers of texting while driving this week at Salisbury High School. Freshman Taylor Rodenhuis organized the golf-cart demonstration, with an assist from state troopers, for an Eagle Scout project. But teen drivers aren’t the only ones who should take this lesson to heart. As a chart accompanying reporter Sarah Campbell’s Thursday article showed, hundreds of those ticketed for driving while texting are well beyond the novice driver years. In fact, the average age of those ticketed under the 2009 law is 28, according to the Associated Press, with some older than 60. Distractions are just as deadly for older drivers as for the young.

Common sense

(Or uncommon wisdom, as the case may be) For fast-acting relief, try slowing down. —Lily Tomlin

Moderately Confused

he wind is howling 40 miles per hour. If I had a goat, I’d go out and tie it down. I didn’t expect wind four years ago when I moved to the desert outside Las Vegas. Heat? Yes. I knew it was hot. Hotter, my grandmother would say, than the hinges on the gates of hell and drier than lizard spit on a rock. But tie-down-yourgoat windy? Who knew? I’ve been watching the birds at our feeder. Finches, I think, but don’t hold me to it. Small, grayish brown, your average birds. Until the sunlight catches them at an angle, just so, SHARON and you see their RANDALL true colors in their faces and on their breasts, a beautiful blush of red. I never get my fill of seeing that. The feeder hangs in a pepper tree by the window. My husband filled it before he left for work. Between the birds and the wind, it’s nearly empty. But the birds keep coming back, clinging and swinging and spinning, occasionally getting flung into the wind. Long ago, when I was in third grade, our school playground featured a metal death trap known as a merry-go-round. While it did go round, there was nothing merry about it, only terror and trepidation and the looming threat of a grisly and embarrassing demise. Lord, how we loved it. Like those birds at the feeder, we kept coming back, day after day, recess after recess, clinging for dear life, risking life and limb in the hope of ... what? I don’t know. The best I can say, in all honesty? Somehow, we thought it was ... fun. Amazing, isn’t it that children can survive to adulthood? It worked like this. Every day at lunch recess, some of the big boys would take positions around the merry-go-round like plow mules hitched in a circle. Then the rest of us fools would climb on board, wrapping all our appendages, shoelaces and belts, around its metal bars. A hush would fall as the mules began to push, faster, faster, until we became a screaming tornado of arms and legs and hair ribbons and lunch buckets. I will never forget my last ride. We had neared Mach speed without losing anybody, when suddenly my best friend — let’s call her Nancy — lost her grip and would surely have rocketed across the state had she not locked her hands on my throat. Frantically, I tried to pull her to safety, or at least, loosen her grip. But she was big for her age and flying straight out like a June bug tied to a string. Also, she was cutting off my oxygen and I feared passing out only to wake up and find us both dead. There comes a moment in life when we see our true colors, like the birds at the feeder. Are we mousy brown or blushing red? When we ask have we done all we can, given it our best shot? When we make a choice, take a stand or go down in flames? This for me was that moment. I bit her. Hard. On the nose. Estimates of how far she flew varied widely. Suffice it to say, she went far. Happily, she did not suffer permanent injury. Sadly, I cannot say the same for our friendship. What I learned that day is this: Colors look different, depending on the light. Sometimes you’re the hero; other times you’re the goat. Some days you can help a friend; other days you just have to cut her loose and let her fly. Even if you have to spend the rest of your life regretting it. We are all a little bit like the birds at my feeder, trying to hang on, getting tossed by the storm, sinners saved by grace. It’s good to have friends you can count on to show their true colors when you need them. But when you’re flying in the wind and need someone to cling to, try to remember: It’s best to grab the hand, not the throat. • • • Contact Sharon Randall at www.sharonrandall.com.

The 40th president at 100 n the centenary of Ronald Reagan's birth, I pause for another historic event: agreement with President Obama, who says of his predecessor in USA Today, “Ronald Wilson Reagan was a believer ... he recognized that each of us has the power — as individuals and as a nation — to shape our own destiny. He had faith in the American promise; in the importance of reaffirming values like hard work and personal responsibility; and in his own unique ability to inspire others to greatness.” Precisely! I suspect Reagan would be CAL embarrassed by the attempts THOMAS to elevate him to political sainthood. Even conservatives who now long for another Reagan were sometimes critical of him during his presidency and of those around him they believed were holding him back. “Let Reagan be Reagan” they cried, as if he wasn’t who he was. What made Reagan a great president was that he understood America and his countrymen better than any politician of his time, or perhaps any time. He saw that the greatness of the country is not found in Washington, no matter which party or personality is in power. Rather, it is to be found in the people. Reagan awakened that dormant truth from hibernation. Ronald Reagan didn’t need to be president to complete himself as a man. He knew who he was before seeking the job. Self-awareness is an essential quality in a leader if he or she is to avoid the siren call of narcissism and the temptations that go with the preoccupation about “legacy.” Reagan awakened in many Americans the belief that no matter what the challenge, Americans can meet it. His opponents mocked him for what they regarded as an “old-fashioned” concept. In a time of growing dependency on government, based on the fallacy that we can’t do much on our own (and if we do we must be punished with higher taxes and more regulation), such a notion was offensive to the dominant political culture. Reagan tapped into a principle that is as much a part of our DNA as motherhood and the American flag. Reagan’s “vision for America” mirrored

LETTERS

our vision of ourselves: strong internationally, economically sound at home. He restored our self-confidence at a time when his predecessor, Jimmy Carter, was suggesting America had seen its best days and we should trim our expectations and become “realists.” Reagan, the eternal optimist, even after discovering he had Alzheimer’s disease, was always thinking about the future. Bill Clinton made the future his theme when he adopted Fleetwood Mac’s “Don't Stop (Thinking About Tomorrow)” as his 1992 campaign song. After reading a book about Reagan, President Obama tried to channel him in his State of the Union address. It fell flat. Trying to be Reagan without the substance didn’t fully succeed with Clinton either because of his self-absorption, manifested in the sex scandals. It is even less likely to succeed with Obama beREAGAN cause his big government philosophy is the antithesis of Reaganism. A theme must have more than a melody. It must be in harmony with America. Reagan’s was. Obama sings his off-key. A Google search for Reaganisms finds scores of little phrases that touched principles handed down by previous generations of Americans. These aphorisms were born of Reagan’s own experiences with FDR Democrats and the notion that the bigger government gets, the fewer liberties we enjoy. Here are just three: “We have a deficit, not because the government taxes too little, but because it spends too much”; “Above all, we must realize that no arsenal, or no weapon in the arsenals of the world, is so formidable as the will and moral courage of free men and women. It is a weapon our adversaries in today’s world do not have”; “... there are great advantages to being elected president. The day after I was elected, I had my high school grades classified Top Secret.” Self-deprecation and humility rested comfortably on Reagan’s broad shoulders. Reagan didn’t promise to do great things for us. He showed us that great things came from within us. Modern Republicans would do well to remind themselves that America’s greatness doesn’t lie within politicians, but within each of its citizens. That is Reagan’s legacy.

How can we value buildings above classroom teachers? As I walk across the University of North Carolina at Greensboro Campus, I see the new construction taking place in the form of two new buildings. I am proud of my school, and I think that the growth is wonderful. These buildings are a wonderful addition to the campus, and the N.C. Educational Lottery has helped to put those buildings in place. However, in the current economic climate, we are forced to address one major issue; will the staffing be in place to support these beautiful new buildings? Around campus and the community, everyone is talking about the budget and cutbacks that are going to take place. Instead of building new facilities statewide, why are we not putting that money into the current teaching and support staff positions to run the existing facilities? The same is true for the local public schools as well. Our teachers have not been given a raise in the past three years, and yet they are pulling more money out of their own pockets to support their classroom needs. We hear rumors about layoffs and salary decreases, creating more fear among the teach-

ers and support staff. More specifically, insurance premiums have increased, coverage has decreased. Additionally, class sizes have increased, but the teachers’ take-home home pay has decreased. Revamping the N.C. Educational Lottery needs to be looked at, to use the revenue it generates for salaries in order to keep the education of our children moving forward in this state. The buildings are nice, but who will teach in them? Cutting the teaching and support staff positions will inevitably cause our children to be left behind. — Kristine Wiles Winston-Salem

Search for Earth-like planets takes a quantum leap Scripps Howard News Service

Even as long as mankind has been studying the heavens, it wasn’t until 1995 that the first exoplanet — a planet outside our solar system — was discovered. Soon there were more, but they tended to be gas giants orbiting close to their stars. Within seven years, 100 planets had been found. Until Wednesday, the number stood at 519 confirmed. The astronomers looked for Earth-size planets orbiting their stars in what came to be called the “Goldilocks zone,” not too cold, not too hot. Last month, astronomers found an Earth-size rocky planet but it was far too hot to sustain liquid water, essential for life.

Then this week the search for planets took a quantum leap when the NASA team operating the Kepler space telescope reported that the planet-hunting satellite had identified 1,235 additional possible planets. Of these, 68 are one and a quarter the size of Earth or smaller and 54 are in the Goldilocks zone. Six are in a solar system remarkably like our own, with concentric orbits in a relatively flat plane. For now, Kepler's discoveries are considered only candidates but astronomers believe that ultimately 90 percent of them will be confirmed as planets. The pace of discovery suggests that sooner rather than later astronomers will discover Earth clones, some of them supporting life even if it’s only mold.

Lawmakerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s husband to fly on April shuttle mission HOUSTON (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The astronaut husband of wounded Rep.

Space shuttle commander Mark Kelly wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t go into details about her condition, and he deflected questions about how he knows she supports his choice to fly. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I know her very well and she would be very comfortable with the decision that I made,â&#x20AC;? he said. Kelly took a leave from training after Giffords was gunned down in Tucson, Ariz., on Jan. 8.

Snake missing for month found on Boston subway BOSTON (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Transit officials say a 3-foot-long boa constrictor that slithered away from its owner on a Boston subway car a month ago has been found in an adjoining car. A commuter spotted Penelope the snake on Thursday and alerted a train attendant. Transit authority officials took the train out of service and train attendant Sharon Lynch â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a snake owner herself â&#x20AC;&#x201D; caught it. Penelopeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s owner, 30-yearold Melissa Moorhouse of Allston, had traveled around with the snake around her neck and lost it between two stations Jan. 6. Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s thrilled to have her pet back and says sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll pay more attention the next time she takes Penelope out in public.

ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Sarah Palin is attempting to trademark her name ahead of a possible 2012 presidential run. The former Alaska governor and 2008 Republican vice presidential candidate filed paperwork with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office in November to register the trademark. The federal office is seeking more information and examples of usage. The office is also seeking additional details for the application submitted in September by Palinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s daughter, Bristol, a contestant on ABCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dancing with the Starsâ&#x20AC;? last year. Palinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s attorney, John J. Tiemessen, said Friday that he has six months to provide the information. He said he couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t disclose the reasons why both applied for trademarks because of attorneyclient privilege. But Seattle lawyer Marshall J. Nelson, with the firm Davis Wright Tremaine LLP, says itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not that unusual for entertainers to copyright their names. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everybodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s name is sort of their brand, and once it gets associated with goods or services, then it functions as a trademark,â&#x20AC;? Nelson said. Once a name is trademarked, he said, it gives the holder additional remedies to recover profits and damages if someone uses it inappropriately.

CAIRO (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A new rally Friday by nearly 100,000 protesters in Cairo and behind-thescenes diplomacy from the Obama administration piled more pressure on President Hosni Mubarak to make a swift exit and allow a temporary government to embark on an immediate path toward democracy. Two days of wild clashes between protesters and regime supporters that killed 11 people this week seemed to have pushed the United States to the conclusion that an Egypt with Mubarak at the helm is potentially more unstable than one without him. For the first time in the 11-day wave of protests, varying scenarios were being put forward by two opposing camps in Egypt and by the United States on how to usher the country into a post-Mubarak era after nearly 30 years of his authoritarian rule. President Barack Obama said that discussions have begun in Egypt on a turnover of the government and he called for â&#x20AC;&#x153;a transition period that begins now.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;We want to see this moment of turmoil turned into a moment of opportunity,â&#x20AC;? Obama said in Washington. He did not explicitly call for Mubarak to step down immediately. Under one U.S. proposal, the 82-year-old Mubarak would hand power to a militarybacked temporary government headed by his newly appointed vice president and then prepare for elections later this year.

Alaska lawmakers may ditch planned natural gas pipeline JUNEAU, Alaska (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Alaska lawmakers introduced legislation Friday to abandon a centerpiece of former Gov. Sarah Palinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s administration: a state-sanctioned effort to advance a major natural gas pipeline. The measure sponsored by at least five Republican representatives underscored the impatience and skepticism that many lawmakers have expressed about the current

process and a belief the state is no closer than it was several years ago to realizing the long-hoped-for line. It sets up a potential political battle with House Democrats and Palinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s successor, Republican Gov. Sean Parnell. Both have expressed support for seeing the process now under way through. If the legislation succeeds, it was not clear how Alaska would commercialize its

prodigious North Slope gas. The pipeline had been seen as a way to help shore up revenue amid declining oil production, create jobs and provide more reliable, affordable energy to Alaskans. The measure Friday was the first such introduced by the Legislature. It was not immediately clear how lawmakers would vote. Under the Alaska Gasline Inducement Act, championed

by the Republican Palin, the state promised Canada-based TransCanada Corp. up to $500 million to advance a line. TransCanada won the exclusive license in 2008. Alaska has reported that reimbursements to TransCanada so far have topped $36 million. More than $100 million remains set aside, and Parnell has requested $160 million more for next fiscal year. TransCanada, which is

working with Exxon Mobil Corp. on the project, has estimated the cost at $20 billion to $41 billion, depending on the route and the size of the line. The company missed a self-imposed target for reaching precedent agreements with shippers at the end of last year but has cautioned against reading too much into that, noting that negotiations are complex but continuing.

Some lawmakers, though, are losing patience â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and faith â&#x20AC;&#x201D; that a line will ever be built. Legislation proposed Friday would presume the project is uneconomic â&#x20AC;&#x201D; for purposes of triggering an abandonment clause in the law â&#x20AC;&#x201D; if TransCanada cannot show proof to Parnellâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s administration before July 15 that it has received firm shipping commitments.

Members of the astronomical Society of Rowan County use powerful binoculars to look at the stars during a meeting at Ralph Dealâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s home on Deal Road.

STARS FROM 1a those used in observatories, was pointed at Jupiter much of the night, and peering through the lens, the astronomers could clearly see four of Jupiterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s moons in orbit around the gas giant. Coming up in June is the clubâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 30th anniversary, but Alice Deal said they have yet to firm up any celebratory plans. However member Roger Overcash noted one special event. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Saturn has been coming up in the mornings,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But Saturn should be coming up in the evening sky by that time. â&#x20AC;Ś Oh, it is totally unreal.â&#x20AC;? The Society also holds frequent outreach and educational activities. In 2010, the Astronomical Society of Rowan County was one of only five such clubs in the country to be awarded a replica of Galileoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s original telescope by the Night Sky Network, a NASA-organized association of amateur astronomy clubs, for their extraordinary outreach efforts. Frequently, the Astronomical Society works with local Cub Scout and Boy Scout organizations, visits Carolina Mall in Concord for its â&#x20AC;&#x153;Moon over the Mallâ&#x20AC;? events, and sets up with school groups to show kids and adults alike the interesting things that can be seen simply by looking through a telescope.

On the evening of March 3, the Astronomical Society will be setting up at Patriots Elementary School in Concord for just such an event. Society members hope to spark the same fascination that has drawn Ralph Deal, who serves as the clubâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s public relations officer, to the stars since he was a child. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I get so much enjoyment out of thinking about what the universe holds,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I saw Sputnik, and it helped me get my mind off my epilepsy.â&#x20AC;? He said nearly every member of the Astronomical Society owns a telescope, but that is not a prerequisite for joining the club or participating in club activities. The club has six telescopes to share, including one large homemade 15-inch-lens reflector telescope similar to those found in observatories. And through those telescopes, society member Steve Romanek said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;You always see different stuff. (Looking at) the moon, a plane flies in front. A black spot on Jupiter and you know a moon is traversing.â&#x20AC;? He added that space is full of wonder, that it is only the next frontier, not the last. Membership dues for the Astronomical Society of Rowan County are $15 per person, or $25 for a family. For more information about the organization, visit www. astrowan.org.

‘freedom from suffering’ In what was once a Presbyterian church, the Tinh Tam Buddhist Meditation Temple celebrates a year in Kannapolis

A woman fingers prayer beads during the service.

A large golden Buddha is the first thing one notices at the Tinh Tam Buddhist Meditation Temple in Kannapolis. Starting in March, the temple will offer meditation classes on Thursday evenings. BY KATIE SCARVEY kscarvey@salisburypost.com

ANNAPOLIS — From the outside, the building at 1602 Lane St. looks very much like the Protestant church it used to be. Walking in, after leaving your shoes outside, you’ll notice that the pews have been replaced by long cushions. The first thing to draw your eye, however, is an immense golden statue of Buddha. Flanked by two umbrellas, it indicates unequivocally that the modest Calvary Presbyterian Church has been transformed into something rather exotic for these parts — a Buddhist temple. The Tinh Tam Buddhist Meditation Temple primarily serves Vietnamese Buddhists but welcomes anyone who wants to attend. Buddha taught that the world is suffering, and the religion of Buddhism teaches freedom or liberation from suffering. Sunday, Jan. 23, is a special celebration of the day when Buddha found enlightenment

When the temple opened about a year ago, even the Vietnamese in the Kannapolis area were surprised... under the Bodhi tree — as well as the yearly ancestor memorial service and the temple’s first birthday celebration. Outside of the church is an altar with piles of fruit and other offerings. After leaving my shoes outside the door, I enter the temple, happy to be wearing wool socks on a chilly day. My informal guide to the service is Judith Felson, a member of the Tinh Tam congregation who grew up in Salisbury but who now lives in Mint Hill. As nearly as I can tell, she, photographer Sean Meyers and I are the only non-Vietnamese people attending — which isn’t surprising since services are conducted in Vietnamese. Judith has been a Buddhist since the 1970s, she says. She attends the Kannapolis temple regularly and has taken her Refuge Vows, promising to ad-

here to the Five Precepts: to refrain from harming living creatures, stealing, false speech, sexual misconduct and intoxicants. Those like Judith who have taken the vows wear gray robes designed to fade — “as we fade our egos and diminish ourselves when we are in the temple,” she explains. She knows I’m nervous but sets my mind at ease. The people here, she assures me, are non-judgmental, “close-knit, warm, giving and loving.” I’ve already met the abbot, Bhikku Thich Tam Khanh. A “Bhikku” is a fully ordained Buddhist monastic, committed to living a simple, meditative life. Master Tam Khanh, who was ordained at age 10, cannot marry and receives no pay. He lives on the first floor of the church in spartan quarters. His special assistant is Dieu Le-Thi Thi Tu, who came from

A man closes his eyes as he focuses during the service. Connecticut, as Master Tam Khanh did, in order to start the church. When the temple opened about a year ago, even the Vietnamese in the Kannapolis area were surprised, Thi Thi says. She believes there are only about 10 Buddhist temples in the whole state, with most of them in Charlotte. Originally from Vietnam, Thi Thi lived in New York for 30 years. A home health care nurse in her regular job, she is devoted to helping Master Tam Khanh organize the Kannapolis church. Since Thi Thi has been in this country longer than the abbot, she helps him communicate and takes care of some of the day-today issues involved in running a temple. Master Tam Khanh, also originally from Vietnam — which is about 60-70 percent Buddhist, Thi Thi estimates — studied in Taiwan and later moved to Connecticut to work with a Bridge-

port temple Thi Thi was involved with. Interested in moving to a warmer climate, he chose Kannapolis instead of Charlotte because he felt he could be of more service there. Special guests of this service include three nuns, or bhikkuni, who are wearing yellow robes. They sit up front, easily recognizable by their shaved heads. I can’t help looking at them periodically throughout the service because they are so astoundingly still. “Have you seen those nuns breathe?” Judith whispers. “No,” I say. The beginning of the 10 a.m. service is announced by the strike of a gong from the back of the church. Worshipers sit cross-legged on the cushions; more continue to filter in after the service is under way. The usual meeting time is 11 a.m., and apparently some people

Instead he woke up in the hospital and began asking if there was anything more to life. He says that God answered “Yes.” Determined to use his second gift of life to bring others ‘back to life,’ he pursued his education, earning a communications degree from UNC and a Master’s from Liberty Seminary. After serving in Africa, India, Cuba, Canada and the UK, Alley was led back to his roots to plant a new life-transformation church in the Concord/Kannapolis area called Mission 217, to connect people who are disconnected from God back to Jesus.

TEMPLE FROM 1B didn’t get the memo. The national anthem of the United States is played, as well as the Vietnamese national anthem and the international Buddhist anthem. The special guest speaks for a good little while. Later, I get a summary of his message. He’s talked about eight ways to build goodness. Doing good things is like making deposits into a savings account; you can build up a store of goodness. Good things will ultimately return to you. Take care of your parents; help the sick. In you, you have good and evil, but you can control them. You can increase the goodness, and the evil will subside in response. “Does that makes sense?” I’m asked. Yes, perfectly. The congregation joins in the singing and chanting. I’m relieved that I can follow the words most of the time, though I have no idea what they mean. I enjoy the chanting, though. After a short break, a flower offering dance is performed by Buddhist youth from High Point. The female dancers hold vases of yellow flowers and move gracefully to recorded music, with the gong sounding in the background. Later, there is more chanting, to the beat of a drum. At times, it is reminiscent of Native American chanting; it also feels vaguely Celtic at times. The smell of incense wafts through the air. Some people simply listen, without vocalizing, hands pressed together in prayer. Near the end of the ceremony, around 2 p.m., the cake is cut, although it won’t be eaten until later. Some more words are said, which basically translate to the following: Wherever the people are, the Buddhist teaching will be there. If you practice daily, you will one day achieve enlightenment like him. Then, we sing Happy Birthday. It’s in English, and I am happy to be able to participate energetically. After the service, everyone goes to the social hall, where a meal has been prepared, a weekly custom. The Tinh Tam Buddhist Meditation Temple hosted a special one-year-anniversary service on Jan. 23. There is more talking, more rituals before the meal. I am reminded of what Judith has whispered to me during the service, that after three hours of listening to a service in a language I don’t understand, sitting in traffic next week won’t bother me nearly so much. Judith and I go through the line together, and everyone seems to want us to try everything. Even when we sit down with loaded plates, Thi Thi comes bearing more food. “Try this.” It is all wonderful, and although I would swear I’m eating meat in some of the dishes, I’m not — it’s the magic of vegetarian cooking. I sit near some youth who appear to be high school age, and I can picture them sitting in calculus class and going to basketball games. I somehow feel both out of place and comfortable at the same time. • • • The temple holds services every Sunday, from 11 a.m.3 p.m. Services include Sutra chanting and meditation, as well as a message from the abbot. “Everyone can come here to meditate and pray to Buddha,” Thi Thi says. “Everyone has the chance to be enlightened.”

At center, with praying hands, is Bhikku Thich Tam Khanh, the abbot of Tinh Tam Buddhist Meditation Temple. He will be leading meditation classes for English speakers on Thursday evenings, starting in March.

Meditation class In March, those who are interested in meditation practice are invited to a weekly class conducted in English. It will begin on March 3 and will be ongoing, meeting Thursdays from 7-8 p.m. at the Tinh Tam Buddhist Meditation Temple, 1602 Lane St. The class will be taught by Master Tam Khanh. “To meditate is to try to understand the nature of the mind and to use it effectively in daily lives,” Thi Thi says. “The mind is the key to happiness and also the key to suffering.” There is no fee for the class, but donations are gladly accepted. For more information, call 203-524-5527.

First UMC choir to sing in NYC The chancel choir of First United Methodist Church, 217 South Church St., has been invited to sing this summer in St. Thomas Church on Fifth Avenue in New York City.

The invitation came recently from John Scott, organist and master of the choristers of the New York church. Located at the corner of Fifth Avenue and West 53rd Street in the heart of Manhattan, St. Thomas Church’s music program has the only church-affiliated residential choir school for boys in the United States. The church’s worldrenowned choir of men and boys take leave during the summer months. During this time, choirs from across the world are invited to sing as visiting choirs.

Is medication to blame for insomnia?

Saturday, Feb. 5 The year ahead could be an especially good one for putting your artistic, literary or musical talents to constructive uses. That market for your expression of the gifts you possess may be able to be found. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — That nose of your for sniffing out a bargain for something you want is apt to be much sharper than usual today. If there is a high-ticketed item you need, now may be the time to go shopping for it. Pisces (Feb. 20-March 20) — For reasons known only to you, it will be important for you to operate as freely and independently as you possible can. Avoid getting involved with anything that could restrict your mobility. Aries (March 21-April 19) — Those compassionate urges of yours will be easily aroused today by most anybody who needs help. That includes everybody you know and even some strangers. Taurus (April 20-May 20) — You might not be easy to read at first, but when you open up it is easy for others to feel the warm and gracious vibes you give out. Once the world sees you as a pal, friendship is offered. Gemini (May 21-June 20) — Something that proved to be too much to handle yesterday is apt to be a piece of cake. What you previously saw as obstacles and impediments will now look like stepping-stones. Cancer (June 21-July 22) — Anything that allows you to use your artistic and creative faculties will be what you’ll thoroughly enjoy engaging in today. Use your talents and gifts to help make your day. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Pay heed to your intuitive instincts, even in business matters and with things your logic dictates you to do otherwise. Your hunches could be much smarter than your brain. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Someone who is near and dear to you might not be able to be reached through pragmatic means, but approaching this person with tenderness might work. Use emotions, not logic. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — Because you’ll take such pride in whatever it is you are doing today, it won’t be necessary for anybody to look over your shoulder to keep tabs on your work. You’ll do a great job. Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — There is nothing wrong with being in love with love, so if that is how you feel, let it out. There are a lot of empty spaces in this world that can be utilized by a romanticist. Sagittarius (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — Even if there are plenty of other work related or fun interests vying for your attention, give family matters top priority. There is nothing more important than those close to your heart. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — You seem to be on everybody’s minds today. Both your computer and/or cell phone could be extremely busy with so many of your friends and family trying to reach you. Trying to patch up a broken romance? The Astro-Graph Matchmaker can help you understand what to do to make the relationship work. Send for your Matchmaker set by mailing $3 to Astro-Graph, P.O. Box 167, Wickliffe, OH 44092-0167.

You already qualify for a number of the causes. Beyond that, you may be unaware that you have sleep apnea or restless-legs syndrome, which can interfere with sleep patterns. Testing to rule out these conditions can be performed at a sleep center if necessary. Dry mouth is often a side effect of medication, specifically blood-pressure reducers, muscle relaxants, antidepressants, antihistamines and anti-anxiety drugs. The use of tobacco can also cause or contribute to the problem. Use a fluoride rinse or brush a fluoride gel onto your teeth before bedtime. Don’t use alcohol-containing mouthwashes. Avoid foods that are high in acid or sugar. Limit your intake of caffeine, and try an over-the-counter saliva substitute. You say you are using Biotene but don’t mention which type (mouthwash, toothpaste, gum, balancing gel, etc.). This product can cause excess gas. Night sweats can be caused by hormone therapy, antidepressants, leukemia, hyperthyroidism, nonHodgkin’s lymphoma, damage to the autonomic nerves and a number of other conditions. Muscle discomfort of the upper extremities may result from nerve impingement, a correctable problem. Constipation may be due to an excess of calcium and vitamin D. I question your morphine pain pump because it is usually for temporary use; therefore, it could be the cause of a great deal of your problems. Gas can be caused by foods high in fiber, such as whole grains, legumes, Dear Reader: Let’s start at the begin- and fruits and vegetables. Beyond that, ning. Insomnia can be the result of a we swallow air every time we eat or

drink, eat too fast, or drink through a straw. Most lower-intestinal gas is produced when bacteria in the colon ferments carbohydrates that fail to be digested in the small intestine. Gas can also be caused by the use of laxatives, diverticulitis, Crohn’s disease, constipation and food additives. Try drinking peppermint tea, eating slowly, and chewing your food thoroughly. Experiment with “grazing”: eating five or six smaller meals throughout the day instead of a few larger ones. Discontinue eating when you awaken in the middle of the night. Eliminate fried foods, reduce dairy products, and keep meticulous records of what triggers attacks. Stop napping during the day if you currently do so. Make your sleeping area conducive to sleep by being quiet and dark. Then seek the assistance of your prescribing physician(s) to determine whether you can successfully discontinue or reduce the dosage of any of drugs.

After two passes, you sensibly jumped to five clubs. Remember, when you come into the auction after an opponent opens with a high-level preempt, assume partner has 6 or 7 high-card points. And here, if he has a stronger hand than that, he can contemplate bidding six clubs. (Yes, a three-no-trump overcall would have worked well, but not many would have been willing to take that gamble.) You have 11 top tricks: two spades, one heart, one diamond and seven clubs. Can anything go wrong? Yes, if East has no hearts. And the bidding tells you that he is void. West announced seven, dummy has five, and you hold a singleton. If you call for dummy’s heart ace, you know that East will ruff and your 11th trick will evaporate. What is the solution? Just play low from the

dummy at trick one. West will presumably continue with the heart queen. Play low from the dummy again and ruff in your hand, draw trumps, and take those 11 winners. Don’t be deaf to the auction or blind to the possibilities.

Dear Dr. Gott: I not only read but have scrapbooks full of your articles. For more than a year now, I have had insomnia nightly for two or more hours; dry mouth (for which I use Biotene, which helps a little); night sweats that cause me to change my bedclothes every night and sometimes twice; muscle discomfort from my elbow to my shoulder when my arms are out or above my head; gas (for which I use Beano, which only DR. PETER prevents gas when taken just before eating); GOTT and constipation, missing a day or two of evacuation on occasion. For my dry mouth, my doctor thought Allegra could be the cause. I stopped taking the Allegra, but it didn’t help. I have osteoarthritis, RA, diverticulitis, a hiatal hernia, GERD, gastritis and microvascular ischemic disease. My medications include prednisone, methotrexate, Synthroid, Prilosec, Lipitor, folic acid, senna S, Viactin and calcium with vitamins D and K2. I have a morphine pain pump and still have 10 Ambien left from a 2009 prescription. I’m allergic to niacin and cortisone and cannot take aspirin or aspirin products because of the methotrexate. All medications except the morphine have been taken for years, and during periods of insomnia, I have something to eat. My primary doctor does extensive fasting lab work every six months. My rheumatologist orders lab testing every eight weeks, and my pain consultant says the morphine can be causing the gas but doesn’t believe it has anything to do with my other problems. All lab work has always come back normal. Please help!

WEATHER UNDERGROUND’S NATIONAL WEATHER Yet another storm will move through the East Saturday, renewing wintry weather for many areas that have already seen their share of it this Winter. The heaviest morning precipitation will fall as rain along the Southeast Coast, but snow will increase from the Ohio Valley through the Northeast. This storm will not be nearly as intense as the blizzard that occurred earlier this week, but many areas will receive a few inches of new snow. Some areas in southern New England and along the Mid-Atlantic coast will be warm enough to experience areas of sleet or freezing rain. In the West, a large trough of low pressure will move into the Northern Rockies and Northern Plains, prolonging snow that will be fairly widespread from Idaho through Minnesota and south through Colorado. This area will also experience gusty winds that may make driving difficult. Some precipitation is likely in Washington, but California will be under a high pressure system that will keep the region and adjacent areas of the Southwest dry. The Northeast will rise into the 20s and 30s, while the Southeast will see temperatures in the 30s, and 40s aside from Florida which will rise into the 70s. The Northwest will rise into the 30s, 40s, and 50s, while California will see temperatures in the 50s, 60s, and even some 70s.

South looks Sharpe Raiders win the big rivalry game at home BY PAUL HERSHEY sports@salisburypost.com

LANDIS — It has been a season full of close losses for S. Rowan 86 South Rowan's boys. The Raiders Carson 70 weren't about to let another happen — not in their own gym against rival Carson. Getting key plays from more than a handful of players, South answered Carson's second-half challenges and pulled away to an emotional 86-70 win Friday night. "I told them going into the game that I don't have to motivate you for anything," South coach John Davis said. "'You know what's at risk, you know who's here. You've got a gym full of people in there, there's going to be a lot of screaming and hollering on both sides. Let's go out there, play some basketball and have DAVIS some fun tonight.'" The Raiders (5-14, 2-7) indeed had plenty of fun in this one, taking control in the first quarter and then holding Carson at arms length the rest of the way. Johnathan Gaddy scored a gamehigh 24 points for South, while Brandon Sharpe played a huge part with 18 points off the bench. The senior scored 13 of his points in the final period, helping to thwart Carson's comeback bid. "You look at the progress the kids are making," Davis said. "You look at Johnathan Gaddy from where he was last year and what he's doing for us this year. Brandon Sharpe we know he's had that in him all year long and for him to come out and play like he played tonight was good to see." Plagued by the foul trouble of Nick Houston and an early — and all too familiar scoring drought — Carson (8-12, 5-6) fought uphill the whole way. Trailing by 13 at halftime, the Cougars crept within 53-46 heading to the fourth and seemed poised to get even closer at several points in a heated final period that featured a shoving match between Carson's Rik Heggins and South's Nathan Lambert. Shortly after that a wild exchange of steals and a spectacular block by HegJon c. lakey/sALisBUrY post

south rowan’s Brandon sharpe (33), who scored 13 of his 18 points in the fourth quarter, makes a move on Carson’s dontae Gilbert.

Super ads worth the high price

BY AARON BEARD Associated Press

Associated Press

LOS ANGELES — Advertisers are rolling out celebrities, animals galore and old favorites to capture the attention of more than 100 million people expected to tune in for Super Bowl XLV on Sunday. GoDaddy.com was almost unheard of six years ago. Then it ran the most talked-about ad of Super Bowl XXXIX — a spoof of Janet Jackson's "wardrobe malfunction" in which a busty woman appears before a censorship board and a strap breaks on her skimpy top. The spot was so racy that Fox yanked a second airing scheduled for later in the game. The other fallout? The Super Bowl ad rolled out each year by GoDaddy, which registers Internet domain names, is now almost as eagerly awaited as the halftime show. Fox is charging about $3

"It's not a bet," GoDaddy founder Bob Parsons says, "if you know the outcome." After Super Bowl XXXIX, it added race car driver Danica Patrick as a "GoDaddy girl," and last year signed "The Biggest Loser" trainer Jillian Michaels. It's already encouraging customers to check out this year's Super Bowl for "our hottest ads yet." Since the Jackson spoof in 2005, GoDaddy has gone from single digits to nearly

CHAPEL HILL — Larry Drew II stunned North Carolina coach Roy Williams and his Tar Heels teammates with his abrupt departure from the program. In a statement issued Friday by the school, the junior point guard said he was leaving because “it’s in my best interest to continue my education and basketball career elsewhere.” The announcement came just four games after Drew lost his starting job to freshman Kendall Marshall. And it caught the No. 23 Tar Heels by surprise just before a tough

stretch of games that includes next week’s game at reigning national champion Duke. Williams said Drew’s father — Atlanta Hawks head coach Larry Drew — informed him of his son’s decision to leave in a phone call Friday morning. Williams said he was “shocked” by the news. “Basically there was no arbitrating, there was not trying to see if we could rectify anything,” Williams said during a news conference Friday afternoon. “That was the decision that was made and he thought it was in Larry’s best interest.” AssoCiAted press

‘Injured’ Wade leads Heat past Bobcats Associated Press

CHARLOTTE — A night after LeBron James scored 51 Heat 109 points, it was Dwyane Bobcats 97 Wade’s turn to dazzle with his first tripledouble in more than five years. Look out, the Miami Heat are clicking again. Wade had 22 points, 12 rebounds and 10 assists, shaking off the effects of a sore back, and the Heat closed out an impressive two-day stretch by beating the Charlotte Bobcats 109-97 on Friday night for their fifth consecutive victory. Wade wasn’t sure he’d play up until

about an hour before tip-off after getting hurt a night earlier in Orlando, but he logged 40 minutes and led an efficient offense that shot 55 percent from the field. It was Wade’s fourth career tripledouble, but his first since Jan. 13, 2006, at Seattle. “I kind of stopped caring about getting triple-doubles. I used to try and I wasn’t succeeding,” Wade said. “I’ve got to be leading the league in close-to-tripledoubles. It feels good to finally get one after five years off.” As Wade spoke, James kidded him that he shoots too much to collect tripledoubles. James has three of them this

season, and nearly collected a fourth with 19 points, eight rebounds and nine assists against the Bobcats. Yes, after losing five of six amid injuries and inconsistent play, the Heat are getting healthy, putting up gaudy numbers and collecting victories again with their biggest stars leading the way. “Just the fact that they’re sharing and scoring and rebounding and playing defense all at the same time, it shows how versatile they are,” said Miami’s Chris Bosh, who had 14 points. The Heat even showed some depth. Former Bobcats guard Eddie House

Panthers bring back Settle Associated Press

The NFL notebook ... CHARLOTTE — The Carolina Panthers have hired former NFL running back and Wisconsin assistant John Settle as running backs coach. Friday's move is a homecoming of sorts for the Reidsville native and former Appalachian State star and fills one of the last openings on Ron Rivera's staff. Settle replaces Jim Skipper. Settle played for the Mountaineers in the 1980s before becoming the first undrafted player in NFL history to rush for 1,000 yards with Atlanta in 1988. He was part of Washington's Super Bowl winning team three years later. Settle has worked as an assistant in Cleveland, Baltimore and Fresno State before spending the past four years with the Badgers. HALL OF FAME DALLAS — Deion Sanders, Marshall Faulk and Curtis Martin are among the

Also finalists are Tim Brown, Cris Carter, Dermontti Dawson, Richard Dent, Chris Doleman, Charles Haley, Chris Hanburger, Cortez Kennedy, Andre Reed, Les Richter, Ed Sabol and Shannon Sharpe. TITANS COACH NASHVILLE, Tenn. — The Tennessee Titans have interviewed their first candidates outside of their own building in the search for a new head coach, talking to Atlanta offensive coordinator Mike Mularkey and New York Giants defensive coordinator Perry Fewell. Mularkey is the first candidate interviewed by Tennessee who has been a head coach. By interviewing Fewell, the Titans satisfied the Rooney rule by talking with a minority candidate.

UNC football player charged Associated Press

BURLINGTON — A sophomore running back at the University of North Carolina faces charges of driving while impaired after a police stop. UNC football spokesman Kevin Best says A.J.

Police say Blue’s blood alcohol level at the time was .12 percent. The legal limit in North Carolina is .08 percent. Blue was released from Alamance County Jail on a $500 bond and is scheduled to appear in court on March 7. Best says that discipline will be handled internally. • GRAMBLING, La. — Grambling State linebackers coach Andre Robinson has been named interim head football coach.

Team spokesman Matt Plizga said Friday the cast was removed earlier in the day. But he added that there remains no timetable for Irving’s rehab and the point guard is still out indefinitely with the injury to his big right toe. Irving tweeted Friday afternoon that the “Cast retired...now walking boot and rehab!!!

I did speak to coach Williams,” Larry Drew said. “I thought it was important we did it in a very tasteful manner and we did that. My son issued the statement and it came from him. He clearly stated that his family has his support.” In his statement, Drew said: “It is unfortunate my career didn’t meet expectations in Chapel Hill. However I do look forward to continuing my collegiate and athletic career in the near future.” On Drew’s Twitter feed, an entry was posted Friday morning that read, “they say don’t ask permission just ask forgiveness, you know?.. so.. forgive me.” The post was later deleted.

However, he seemed to handle his recent demotion from the starting lineup well — even playing some of the best basketball of his UNC career. He had 19 assists with four turnovers in the four games while drawing praise from Williams for his perimeter defense. Williams had played Drew alongside Marshall in stretches for the Tar Heels (16-5, 6-1 Atlantic Coast Conference). North Carolina has climbed back near the top of the league with the Blue Devils (20-2, 71) by winning nine of 10 games — including all four since Marshall became the starter.

His father said the decision was not made spur of the moment. “This was a decision that was made long before actually this season even started, to be perfectly honest,” Larry Drew said. “We’ve been contemplating this for a while and sometimes things comes to a point where a decision has to be made and we felt it got to that point.” Williams said he had conversations with the Drews after last season. Publicly, the relationship seemed fine. In May, Drew even stressed he wasn’t looking to leave North Carolina. Drew — who started 36 games last year and was second in the ACC at about six assists per game — issued a statement to “again confirm that I am not transferring anywhere.” His teammates said he gave no recent indications of being unhappy.

He called team video coordinator Eric Hoots, who told him Drew was in fact leaving. Zeller said he wasn’t angry, but said Drew “left us kind of a little stranded.”

“It’s disturbing and we’re probably a little disappointed in him, but it’s definitely not like we’re mad at him or anything like that,” Zeller said. “It’s his decision and we’re fine with it.” Williams said it was a "major blow" to lose Drew, who was averaging 4.4 points and 3.9 assists as a junior.

"You guys have heard me and I have said on record that he was unfairly maligned or criticized for last year," Williams said. "I've said many times he didn't have Tyler Hansbrough, Wayne Ellington and Danny Green to throw the ball to like Ty did, and I believe that and I'll say that to the day I go down."

Lexington’s Tracey Jackson (34) drapes his arm around Salisbury center Alex Weant as he Jarrett Rivens (44) continued his good play inside with a double-double. Here, Rivens takes tries to get to Hornet Darien Rankin. a jumper over Lexington’s Jarrett McCowen.

SALISBURY BOYS FROM 8C C.J. Woodberry caught him late in the downcourt sprint, just in time to reach in and get called for a hack. Knox completed the three-point play, providing a 51-34 lead and sending about a fourth of the overflow crowd to the parking lot. “Alex (Weant) tipped it to me, I found a lane and just finished it,” Knox explained. “I think that took the life out of them. Then they just gave up.” Losing coach Robert Hairston thought the Yellow Jackets simply

had an off-night. They made only six baskets against Salisbury’s 2-3 zone in the first half — five layups and then Al Challenger’s short jumper that tied the score 15-15 midway through the second quarter. But it was the avalanche of missed layups that kept the guests pinned in their corner. “We missed a lot of chippies all night,” Hairston said. “It’s tough to say why. I don’t think they were really into it. Until they decide they want it, this is what happens sometimes.” Salisbury managed to bulldoze its way through every early crisis. Weant’s late layup gave it a 21-16 halftime lead and after Woodber-

ry’s gimme made it 25-22 in the third quarter, the Hornets rallied to take a 10-point lead. Again Lexington fought back, inching with 34-29 on a pair of Challenger free throws just seconds into the fourth, only to be repelled by Knox, Rankin and 6foot-5 junior space-eater Jarrett Givens — who was an absolute beast in the paint. “It was a big night because last year these guys beat us twice,” he said after contributing 11 points and 18 rebounds. “It was also important for Coach (Justin) Morgan. He knew they were a running team, a team that could hang in there with us. But he kept us in that zone, which made it harder for them to penetrate. And

when they did shoot from the outside they couldn’t hit.” Morgan was most impressed with Salisbury’s air-tight defense and fourth-quarter fortitude. “We always talk about finishing games,” he said after Lexington converted only two baskets in the final stanza. “Especially against teams like this that are capable of going on a run and climbing back into it. But I think we smelled a win and got after it.” It’s a win that moved them closer to a regular-season championship that eluded them last winter. “We all came to play tonight,” Knox said. “We executed and everything went our way.”

• NOTES: Lexington led only once — when Challenger hit a putback to open the scoring. ... Rankin, who netted 33 points in a double-overtime win at Lexington last month, finished with 14. ...

SAL. GIRLS FROM 8C LHS (9-10, 3-4) suffered its second blowout loss to Salisbury. “Our strategy was to play slow-down, force them to throw a lot of passes and give them just one attempt at the basket. If you limit their shots you may have a chance.” That plan — which included a zone defense — worked for about three minutes. By then Salisbury had bolted to a 7-2 lead and was off and running. “We work to play the game on our level, with our intensity,” senior forward Olivia Rankin said recording 13 points and five rebounds. “Other teams come at us with great effort, but we always play our game.” They played it flawlessly in the first half. Holmes scored 12 of her game-best 18 points in the first quarter as Salisbury built a 20-9 advantage. It defense took over in the second period, yielding no field goals as the lead mushroomed to 41-10 at the half. “It was just get-it-and-go, mostly layups,” Holmes said. “Those are the easy shots you tyler buckwell/SALISBURY POST have to knock down. That’s the strategy I’ve been taught Salisbury’s Brielle Blaire gerts hacked by Lexington’s Jasmine — attack the gaps and dish Carter as she goes to the hoop. off to the bigs.” Rankin, Jessica Heilig (12 points) and freshman Brielle Blaire (10 points, 5 rebounds) did the grunt work. Holmes added seven steals and four assists. Her twin, Ayanna Holmes, was held scoreless but contributed seven assists. “These ladies are all unselfish,” said McNeil. “They share the ball, they work hard in practice and tonight they were successful.” • NOTES: Rankin and Ayanna Holmes were recognized as McDonald’s All-American nominees in a pre-game ceremony.

Trying to take the game over, Houston drove for a pair of layups, but each time Mark McDaniel followed with one of his own, speeding past the taller Heggins on both occasions. Dylan Eagle's putback made it 65-57, but the Raiders scored the next nine points to put it away. It started with a putback by Josh Medlin his only basket since early in the first quarter. Sharpe then scored the next seven by himself, hitting a 3-pointer, a free throw and then converting a steal - caused by a deflection by Neal - into a three-point play that pushed the lead to 17 with 2:40 left. "We knew at halftime Brian was going to get on them and they were going to put a run on us," Davis said. "You've just got to weather the storm and then just keep doing what you're doing and we answered everything they did to us. "We kept our composure. We lost a close one at West Iredell the other night with just crazy bounces of the basketball. But the basketball bounced our way tonight." Led by Sharpe's outburst and 11 points from Eric Tyler that included three 3-pointers, South got 38 points off the bench.

The Cougars didn't score again until a buzzer-beater at the end of the quarter by Tre Williams. In between, South ran off 15 straight to seize control. "I thought South Rowan played a really good game. They pressed us and put us back on our heels in the first half. We never really did adjust well to the press. "It's frustrating when one of your best players is on the bench and you want him on the floor," Carson coach Brian Perry said. "But those other guys have got to understand that we've got confidence in them too, and they've got to go out there and get the job done. They may not be able to hit 3's like Nick, but they can defend, they can hustle and get second-shots." Houston then picked up his third foul early in the second quarter and sat for the rest of the half. Without him, Carson committed 17 first-half turnovers, many of which turned into easy layups for the Raiders. "I thought South Rowan played a really good game," Perry said. "They pressed us and put us back on our heels in the first half."

LANDIS — Carson's girls h a d Carson 77 nowhere to S. Rowan 43 go but down after their first-quarter performance Friday night. That doesn't sound like a good thing, but it really is. The Cougars were just about flawless in the opening eight minutes against rival South Rowan, putting 32 points on the board en route to a 77-43 rout. "Probably so," Carson coach Brooke Misenheimer said when asked if it was the best quarter her team has played this season. "We really stressed before we went out to play that we wanted to get off to a good start. We did not have a good first half

(Thursday) night and so we wanted to come out and make a statement early on. We wanted to create things with our defensive pressure and make shots, and we did." Did they ever. Starting with Kelly Dulkowski's 3-pointer, Carson made its first four shots, three of them from behind the arc. Chloe Monroe and Sarrah Holman had the others. When the Cougars finally missed, Tyesha Phillips was there for the putback. That gave the Cougars five baskets - each by a different starter. By the end of the period, each of the five had at least four points. They all finished in double figures, led by 23 from Allison Blackwell. Dulkowski and Holman each had 13 and Phillips and Monroe both scored 10.

unselfish with it, they're looking for other people. It's nice when you can go out and everybody can have a piece of it." Carson (15-5, 9-2) went on to shoot a blistering 10 for 14 (71 percent) from the field in the opening quarter. They actually shot worse at the freethrow line in the period, though 8 of 12 isn't exactly bad. South coach Jarrod Smith gave credit to the Cougars for making shots, but was also disappointed in his team's defense. "Their hot-shooting was because we didn't get into the shooter's face liked we worked on in practice," Smith said. "We didn't do our job. Granted they have to knock the shot down and they do a great job of it, but we didn't do our job defen-

sively." The Raiders made just 3 of 10 shots in the first quarter and struggled with Carson's full-court pressure, committing eight turnovers on their way to 31 for the game. A seven-point run to close the quarter made it 32-11. "It's always nice to give yourself a margin early on," Misenheimer said. South (7-11, 4-5) played fairly even the next two quarters, but then fell apart again in the fourth. Nicole Barringer scored 11 points and Sam Goins had 10 for the Raiders.

North girls defeat East Montgomery BY MIKE LONDON mlondon@salisburypost.com

SPENCER — Every time East Montgomery N. Rowan 57 fouled Tiffany E. Mont. 49 Brown, North Rowan girls coach Tony Hillian’s smile grew wider. Brown got 13 of her season-high 16 points on free throws, nine in the fourth quarter, and the Cavaliers surprised the visiting Eagles 57-49. East Montgomery (9-9, 9-4) has

been one of the YVC’s hottest teams and has one of the league’s best players in guard Brandy Rush, but North (7-13, 6-7) grabbed a big win. “We’re all excited about trying to make the playoffs, and I had a feeling we were going to win this one,” said North junior Ronesha Bradley, who pulled down all the BRADLEY key rebounds in the fourth quarter. BROWN North lost 68-53 when the teams met in Biscoe, but East Mont- 12-5 after a quarter and stretched gomery kept firing — and missing that edge to 29-20 at halftime. — 3s early, and the quicker Cavs led “This was the game we’ve been

waiting for, and I’ll say it was our best team effort of the year,” Hillian said. “Everyone was moving their feet and playing defense.” Track star Tinka Bush sets the tone defensively for the Cavs, and she battled Rush furiously. Rush scored 24, but none were easy. Rush led a charge by EM in the third quarter for a 33-32 lead, but Teaunna Cuthbertson (15 points) hit a momentum-changing 3 for North. With the score tied at 37, the Cavs had a decisive 8-0 run that

bridged the third and fourth quarters. Taylor Sells hit a runner, JoJo Carby made two layups, Bradley blocked a shot by Rush, and Brown knocked down two free throws. “We finally played as hard as we could for four quarters,” Bush said. EAST MONTGOMERY (49) — Rush 24, Watts 9, Smith 8, Crisco 7, Hinson 1, Bennett, M. Hassell. NORTH ROWAN (57) — Brown 16, Cuthbertson 15, Carby 11, Bradley 6, Sells 4, Rincon 3, Godfrey 2, Lingle, Miller, Vann, Bush, Dickerson. E. Mont. 5 15 N. Rowan 12 17

North Rowan big man Javon Hargrave powers his way to the basket against East Montgomery.

North Rowan’s Malik Ford gives East Montgomery’s Cameron Little (21) a facial on this second-quarter slam.

NORTH BOYS FROM 8C flexing a little,” Mitchell said with a smile. “He’s starting to feel good about himself. He pushes himself hard. People forget sometimes this kid has only been playing ball for three years. Believe me, he wants it. He wants to be good.” North (16-4, 12-1) won with ease against East Montgomery (7-9, 5-8) to stay in first place. The Eagles beat a good South Davidson team on Thursday, but coach Buggy Greene’s flu-ridden squad had nothing left in the tank for the Cavaliers. Greene could dress only seven. “We were missing two with the flu and it was a very tough situation for our kids against a team as athletic as North Rowan is,” Greene said. “But you still have to play and do the best you can.” The Cavaliers didn’t get off to an impressive start and trailed 4-2 after three minutes, but Mitchell turned to his second five, and freshmen Michael Connor and Michael Bowman got the ball rolling along with Jarvis Witherspoon, Terrese Barber and Amani Bates. “We started out too relaxed,” Mitchell said. “We were reaching, lunging, being way too offensive-minded. Our bench went out there with defending as their only concern and did the job. It was a supreme team effort.” The Cavaliers were up 19-13 when the second unit yielded the floor to the starters to begin the second quarter. “That group got us pumped,” said sophomore starter T.J. Bates. “It all started with defense.” On their second try, the starters ruled, especially Ford, who had a monstrous dunk for a three-point play, and North led 41-23 by halftime.

North’s Pierre Givens splits the East Montgomery defense on this drive.

WEST BOYS FROM 8C dropping, but hey, that happens. The one thing you can always guarantee or hope for is to play good defense and that’s probably the difference in the game.” West led 26-18 at halftime and pushed ahead with the first baskets of the second half, a jumper from B.J. Sherrill and a steal and layup by Keshun Sherrill to keep rolling. Ledbetter’s displeasure with a jump ball call in the third quarter led to a technical foul that ignited a 7-0 run that included two free throws from Keshun Sherrill, a basket by Maurice Warren and a 3 from Parks to give West a 39-22 lead midway through the third quarter. All of a sudden, a seemingly plausible 10-point hill turned into a 17-point mountain. West never led by less than 12 after that. “I thought we were getting bullied around as soon as we

came out after halftime,” Ledbetter said. “They’re a strong team. They’re a football team playing basketball.” A v e r y B.J. SHERRILL Rogers tried to get the East machine cranking with a threepoint play and a pair of free throws on consecutive possessions to cut it 42-30. Keshun Sherrill tipped in a basket in the final minute for a 44-30 advantage at the end of the third quarter. “Every time we felt like we were making a little distance from them, we’d have a defensive breakdown or they’d have a good three-point shot,” Gurley said. Both teams matched each other with a 10-point fourth quarter to keep the margin the same. “We were moving with the ball,” said Gurley of the first quarter. “We were trying to take the 3 away, but didn’t get beat

off the dribble. When you’ve got leaders like B.J. Sherrill, Dominique Noble and Keshun Sherill...if these guys can jump on board with them, we can do SHEPHERD a lot of good things.” Jordan Shepherd scored nine points for East with Rogers adding in eight. Both squads emptied their bench in the final quarter. “I think the shots didn’t fall the way we wanted them to, but we picked our feet up and played nice defense,” Parks said. “Coming off the loss to Statesville, it felt really good.” WEST ROWAN (54) — K. Sherrill 14, Parks 14, B. Sherill 11, Warren 6, Kraft 4, Noble 3, Morgan 2, Martin, Edwards, Broderick, Laster, Turner, Phifer, Cuthberson.

“We concentrated on defense,” Ford said. “Coach preached defense before the game, at halftime and when he was on the sideline.” North honored its 1986 2A state championship team with T-shirts and gold medals and there was some special energy radiating all over the gym with legends such as coach Bob Hundley, and players Antione Sifford, Jimmy Kesler and Ralph Kitley in the house. That strong vibe, combined with North’s zeal to rebound from an ugly 74-54 loss at West Montgomery on Wednesday — its first loss in the YVC — led to an overwhelming second half in which the Cavs buried the weary Eagles 49-17. North benefited from another breakout in the second half by another talented soph. Always ferocious defensively, T.J. Bates provided offense. He drilled two 3s and finished two power drives for a 10-point third quarter. “I’m always intense on the court, and I was focused starting with warmups — just very motivated after our loss,” Bates said. Mitchell believes Bates will be a star. “T.J. brings a toughness to the floor, and he was really on his game,” he said. “T.J. is a jewel. When he’s knocking down shots on top of his defense, he’s one of the best in the league.” T.J. Bates and Connor scored 11 each, while Barber had 10. Bowman blocked three shots. The Cavs won’t get to enjoy the romp long. A trip to second-place Albemarle looms Monday. EAST MONTGOMERY (40) — Wall 11, C. Little 9, D. Little 8, Cozart 6, Cagle 6, Stephens, Dumas.

EAST GIRLS FROM 8C Mustangs held off a 21-point fourth quarter from West and beat their county rival for the first time in two years. Olivia Sabo led East (6-12, 4-6 NPC) with 18 points. “We all visited Mallory in the hospital before the game and they definitely played this game for her,” East coach Danielle Porter said. “She’s got a huge fight, a huge spirit, and this is the kind of game she’d love to be a part of.” On a night where Ayana Avery’s 26 points broke a school record for points in a career, her attempt to win the game on the final possession was off as time expired. Avery now sits at 1,821 points, elapsing Hillary Hampton, a 2004 West graduate who had 1,814 for her career. Avery picked up the slack for three outof-action teammates, Nycieko Dixon, Kym Caldwell and Allison Parker, who were suspended. West (14-7, 6-4 NPC) remained in third place in the 3A North Piedmont Conference with a date at powerhouse North Iredell looming. “We’re still searching for chem-

Avery drew a foul with 18.3 seconds remain- SABO ing and drained both freebies to tie the score for the first time all half. Without a timeout, East inbounded the ball as Poole got a pass from Steffi Sides near midcourt and dribbled it the rest of the way and scored on a right-handed AVERY scoop. “I thought about passing it to (Olivia) Sabo first, but I thought I could have made a bad pass,” Poole said. “So I just took it to the basket.” WEST ROWAN (58) — Avery 26, Steele 9, Barber 9, Ball 4, Saratoka 4, Dutton 4, Watson 2, Miller, Harrington.

West boys clinch second BY RYAN BISESI rbisesi@salisburypost.com

GRANITE QUARRY — Parks and Sherrill, two W. Rowan 54 of the more E. Rowan 40 prominent names in West Rowan athletic history, were at it again on Friday. Keshun Sherrill and Devin Parks each scored 14 points and never let the Falcons fall behind in a 54-40 triumph at East Rowan. West clamped down on defense by only allowing

three points in the first quarter and never trailed in the North Piedmont Conference clash. The win gave the Falcons second place in the league and softened the blow from Tuesday’s loss to Statesville where they blew a 14-point lead. “We had to play hard and forget about the last game,” Parks said. “We had to move on to the next play like coach (Mike) Gurley tells us.” Although the Mustangs cut it to 19-14 after some sharp shooting from behind the arc, Sherrill’s quickness at the point and West’s

PARKS

athleticism in the paint left them playing from behind all night. Sherrill, who didn’t play in the first meeting between the two teams due

to a hip injury, reminded East of his talents in case any of them forgot. “We knew they’d be a different team,” East coach Trey Ledbetter said. “Once again, we didn’t get off to a blazing start.” Cole Honeycutt, the lone East scorer in double figures in scoring with 10 points, drained a 3 to end a scoring drought that lasted over seven minutes to start the game. “Their defense was pretty stout to begin the game,” Ledbetter said. “We got a little flustered and it took us a while to get into it.”

Leading 10-3 after eight minutes, B.J. Sherrill converted a three-point play to start the second-quarter scoring for West (10-10, 8-2 NPC). East’s Jared Hough nailed back-toback treys to get the momentum going back towards the home team. After cutting its deficit to four, East (1-17, 1-9 NPC) saw its guests go on an 11-3 run into the second half. “Overall, I think we attempted to play really good defense,” West’s Gurley said. “Our shots weren’t

BY DAVID SHAW SPENCER — There’s no heavier N. Rowan 90 b u r d e n E. Mont. 40 than unlimited potential, but North Rowan’s 6foot-7 sophomore Malik Ford is starting to assert himself. Ford scored a career-high 18 points as the Cavaliers overwhelmed East Montgomery 90-40 on Friday. Ford put together stretches of dominance, including five blocks in the second quarter and t h r e e straight slam dunks in the third FORD quarter that had the big crowd at North chanting his first name. “Is it a breakout?” Ford wonderered. “I hope so. I really do. I want to play like this every night.” North coach Andrew Mitchell said Ford’s growth as a player can be attributed to his work in the weight room. With more strength has come confidence. “Malik is walking around in tank tops now and even

GRANITE QUARRY — On a night where lots of familar faces for E. Rowan 60 both teams were absent, W. Rowan 58 East Rowan’s Sydney Poole mind was elsewhere. But in a good way. Just hours after visiting teammate Mallory Drew, who broke her leg in a car accident earlier in the week, Poole made a play that would have made her comrade estatic by sinking a go-ahead layup with eight seconds left in East’s 60-58 win against West Rowan at POOLE home Friday night. “We decided before the game we had to play ‘Mallory Drew basketball,’ ” said Poole after sinking the first game-winning shot of her career. “Mallory’s real scrappy and we knew we had to play like her tonight to be able to win.” Poole had a season-best 15 points as the

When ordinary wouldn’t do, the SalSalisbury 61 isbury boys Lexington 40 basketball team became extraordinary Friday night. The Hornets showed a packed gymnasium how to administer a knockout punch — dropping visiting Lexington to the canvas in the fourth quarter and earning an important 61-40 CCC victory. “It’s this competitiveness we bring out in each other,” senior Darien Rankin said after SHS (15-4, 8-0) clinched at least a tie for the conference title. “We played great defense. We had great intensity. And now we’re motivated to win it outright next week.” Credit Rankin for making a number of decisive plays. It was still a close game late in the third quarter when he scored on an industrialstrength dunk that turned the crowd into a human trampoline. Later, with five minutes remaining, Rankin skipped a no-look, back-door pass to Corey Murphy at the right baseline. Murphy parlayed the feed into an uncontested layup and a 38-29 SHS lead. “He produced big plays

Top 10 Home Decor Trends for 2011 (ARA) - Something old, something new. Something borrowed, something blue. While typically the refrain for most brides, this adage holds equally true for the top home decorating trends for the coming year.

Underfoot‚ but not underrated M. Grace Sielaff of M. Grace Designs, Inc. envisions rich-looking herringbone-patterned hardwood floors in an ebony oak finish - paying attention to board thickness and giving special consideration to products that meet industry LEED requirements. For a green touch, Frederick suggests hardwood flooring from reclaimed wood or sustainably grown and harvested sources. To add warmth, Marta Cullen of Dream Interiors suggests round rugs - the bigger, the better.

What’s old is new again Whether they’re genuine period pieces being repurposed or home furnishings reproduced from popular items from the ‘50s, ‘60s or ‘70s, vintage will be hot next year, according to Kenneth Ludwig of Kenneth Ludwig Home Furnishings, Ltd. Examples include chair frames redone in new upholstery, traditional lighting fixtures in newer brass or pewter finishes, or products imported from Russia, Poland and the Czech Republic such as chairs done in old grain sacks, or old carts from factories used for end tables or coffee tables. A spectrum of colors Color trends will carry over from 2010 to 2011 with the soothing aqua and green hues that draw their inspiration from the verdigris deposits found on weathered copper statues, predicts design expert, TV host/spokesperson and best-selling author Kathy Peterson. For outdoor furniture and accessories, she sees sassy colors like lime green, bold orange and Caribbean blue, along with more subdued hues such as sage green, barn red and mocha brown. The mad, mad world of furniture Taking a nod from the award-winning AMC series “Mad Men,” Linda Fougerousse of Interior Transformation, Inc. also sees furniture styles returning to the ‘50s and ‘60s with round tapered legs on angles, geometric accents and seating with curved backs. Jase Frederick of Jase Frederick Sustainable Interiors adds that classic wood pieces made from sentimental stock like fallen trees or scrap wood from ancestral or historic structures will become heirlooms to ig pass from dw Lu h et nn g expert Ke Home decoratin urposing old furniture, as one gener. recommends rep ation to are in for 2011 vintage items the next.

Things are definitely looking up According to Janet Davidsen of Details in Design, Inc., homeowners are casting their eyes upward. The ceiling will be embellished and noticed more as the “fifth wall,” and may be painted or architecturally enhanced to play more of a focal point in a space. Sielaff also suggests homeowners consider a painted metallic ceiling with a large, eye-catching chandelier.

Murals by manufacturers like Murals Your Way allow for versitle decorating.

A trend that will stick around A small change in a room can make a huge difference - and wall coverings make a dramatic, yet cost-effective statement. With their innovative new SmartStick repositionable wall murals, Murals Your Way has made it easy for homeowners, renters and even college students to add a fresh new look to indoor and outdoor walls, floors, doors and windows. “Easily replied and removed, SmartStick murals boast a high quality, lightly textured finish and can be reused and reinstalled hundreds of times,” says Todd Imholte, president of Murals Your Way. “It’s a perfect temporary or long-term - decorating solution for consumers.” Illuminating insights As living green becomes more ingrained in our lives, LED lighting will continue to light the way, according to Jeff Dross, senior product manager of Kichler Lighting, who will introduce several new under-cabinet systems and landscape products with an ultra-efficient technology next year. For a casual, contemporary twist, Dross also suggests hanging chandeliers in new areas such as bathrooms, bedrooms and closets, and embracing today’s art glass applications, which are much more chic and casual than the Tiffany lamps of the past.

There’s nothing bland about neutrals In a recent video posted on her website, Michelle Lamb - co-founder and chairman of Minneapolis-based Marketing Directions, Inc. and editorial director of The Trend Curve spoke about a resurgence in neutrals in 2011. These more complex “chameleon” neutrals will have more color, and will shift and change based on the light and whatever’s around them. Lamb claims that these neutrals will be “the likes of which we haven’t seen in 20 years or more.”

Green continues to be keen According to Kathy Hoffman of Susan Fredman Design Group, products and materials such as bronze, copper, clay, cotton, linen and hemp - which are environmentally friendly, contribute to healthy indoor air quality, and can be repurposed or recycled at the end of their lifespan - will be in high demand. Vollf adds that using such natural textures as hemp, jute, organic cotton, recycled polyester, bamboo fiber, organic wool and linen, and soy silk will help keep it simple but still green. For more information on top trends, go to www.muralsyourway.com.

You’ve gotta have heart The kitchen remains the “heart of the home,” according to Andrea Vollf of Andrea Vollf Interiors. Consumers interested in remodeling their kitchens should consider a well-designed, open, airy layout that integrates the kitchen into the rest of their homes. Dross also suggests new countertop materials in lieu of granite, such as quartz stone or binding crushed recyclable glass underneath a solid, smooth surface for Kichler Lighting LED those seeking green alter- for your bathroom. arrangements provide stylish and envir onmently friend ly options natives.

Dale Boardman is not responsible for any credit card debts incurred by Patsy Boardman as of February 2, 2011. Hi! My name is Dale Boardman. I was wondering if there was somebody out there that can help me. After 9 years of marriage, my wife flipped her lid. She ran off & hasn't come back. Now she is dragging me through court, trying to get me for everything I got. More than I make a month plys my acre lot that I've had for 28 years. My credit cards are maxed out trying to fight this. If anybody can help me financially, I would really appreciate it. God will bless you for it. Dale Boardman, PO Box 275, Cleveland, NC 27013

Any post-crisis government will face major challenges in rebuilding the country’s image and dealing with a range of fundamental economic problems. Shares of Aetna Inc. shot up 11

percent after the health insurer announced a significantly higher dividend payment for shareholders and predicted its 2011 profit will be much bigger than what Wall Street expects. The Hartford, Conn., company also said its fourth-quarter net income rose 30 percent due in part to better pricing and a slowdown in health care use that also has helped its competitors in the last few months of 2010. Verizon Wireless said its first day of taking online orders for the iPhone produced record sales, and it’s stopped taking orders until Wednesday. The company didn’t specify how many iPhones had been ordered. It’s only taking orders from current Verizon subscribers. The phone will be available in stores for the general public next Thursday, but supplies are likely to be tight. Tyson Foods’ net income jumped 86 percent jump its fiscal first quarter, helped by improving chicken sales and rising prices for beef and pork, the meat producer said. The improvement is a strong signal the meat producer has recovered from an industry downturn.
