The man who shot the dog was arrested on Wednesday after a warrant was issued. Darius Rashaad Baker, 21, of 818 Shugart Road, Apt. B-6, Dalton, was charged by the Whitfield County Sheriff’s Office with cruelty to animals — a felony — for shooting the dog of Mark Baker. Baker “The dog was chained in the cousin’s back yard on Sam Love Road,” said Maj. John Gibson with the sheriff’s office. “The cousin, Mark Baker, had threatened to kill (Darius Baker’s) dog first, then later (Darius Baker) called his cousin to say he had shot his dog.

He said his son’s dog was a pit bull. “Mark called the pound and told them to come get it,” he said. “Darius found out how much it would cost to get it out since it wasn’t chained up, but before he could get down there the dog jumped on another dog at the pound and the price went up.” Tony Baker said he figured the dog was put down after so many days. He said his son has “some anger issues,” but he warned him not to do anything. “He’s a grown man,” he said, “and I told him what might happen if he got upset and did INSIDE Whitfield County Board of Commissioners member Mike Cowan says he wants to be Georgia’s next 9th District member of the U.S. House of Representatives.

Future DSC grad enjoys ‘the language of business’ BY RACHEL BROWN rachelbrown@daltoncitizen.com Dean McKinney knew Dalton State College would be just a short 20-minute drive from his home, but he was skeptical about getting his accounting degree there because the program was so new. Now that he’s set to graduate tonight with the first class to earn a bachelor’s degree in accounting, he’s glad he chose DSC. McKinney transferred twice during his college career, first from Valdosta State College in the area where he grew up, then from Kennesaw State University after he moved to North Georgia so he and his wife Alana could be near her family. The two married in May 2007 while McKinney was a junior. ➣ Please see GRADUATION, 2A Babb: Property tax assessments law may be misunderstood BY CHARLES OLIVER charlesoliver@daltoncitizen.com Whitfield County Board of Commissioners chairman Mike Babb admits he’s not happy about a law signed Wednesday by Gov. Sonny Perdue that keeps property tax assessments from rising until 2011. Well, it keeps some assessments from rising, and that’s one of the things Babb says bothers him. “The freeze applies to the county millage rate, and the school millage rate, but it doesn’t apply to the quarter mill that the state puts on your taxes,” Babb told an audience at the Dalton-Whitfield County Chamber of Commerce’s Good Morning Dalton breakfast Thursday. Babb says the law may cause homeowners to think their property taxes are not going up. That’s not the case. ➣ Please see CHAMBER, 8A 1 OFF 75 OFF $ 00 OR New 1325 W.

Women like Halle Berry and Michelle Obama are just as beautiful as women of other races.” “Why have the responses to the remark about Confederate soldiers being compared to Nazis been printed?” Editor: We only received two responses on that subject and printed both. “Warren Buffett came out for Obama before the election. He knows better now, but is trying to justify his previous position.” Obama, facing criticism over huge budget deficits, will propose shaving $17 billion from a 2010 budget. About half of the proposed cuts would come from the defense budget. Just invite the terrorists to come on over.” “Do cops not write tickets anymore for driving in the rain without your headlights?” “McManus finds the jury verdict of homicide “meaningless?” We’ve had enough of this good old boy network.

They are rude and disrespectful.” “Government needs to help grandparents who raise grandkids. The government helps foster parents.” “I heard that President Obama uses a teleprompter to whisper sweet nothings in his wife’s ear.” “There are plenty of casinos operating in Whitfield County now. They are disguised amusement centers and convenience stores. Seek and ye shall find. Chitwood must be blind.” “You are right, it doesn’t say anything in the Bible about putting a Bible verse in the newspaper. But it does say God should some first and it’s more important than anything else in the newspaper. Duh!” Editor: Duh is right. It’s a newspaper not a Sunday school book. The newspaper is for Christians and non-Christians. “Jimmy Espy — duh! That caller didn’t say there was a verse in the Bible that said to put the verse on the front page. The caller said to put God first. There’s a bunch of us who can give you plenty of verses to back that up. Editor: Double duh to you. The caller specifically demanded the verse be put on the front page. “The person who keeps calling in about the Bible verse on the front page needs to buy a Bible and sit down and read it.” “Mr. Espy, a lot of the things you said you don’t put in the forum you DO put in the forum — ignorant, rambling and pointless remarks. If that was the short list I’d like to see the long one.” Publisher “There days teachers don’t get respect automatically like they once did. They have to earn it more. Most do.

Most of McKinney’s accounting classes had only about 10 students, he said, and they became close friends. “I can’t say enough about that group of students,” he said. “They just accepted me in as part of the group even though they had been together since they were freshmen.” McKinney said accounting drew his interest when he took a class in high school and placed second in a state accounting competition. “I enjoy working with numbers and how they come together,” he said, describing accounting as “the language of business.” He has worked part time for CPA B.

(706) 226-2722 THE DAILY CITIZEN Friday, May 8, 2009 Southeast FFA, Kroger ‘can’ do SUBMITTED BY WHITFIELD COUNTY SCHOOLS FFA officers of the Southeast Whitfield FFA Chapter arrived at the Kroger grocery store on Cleveland Highway recently to pick up packaged foods. The chapter was collecting food for the homeless as part of the Can Hunger-Million Can Challenge of the Georgia State FFA Convention. The FFA chapter that brings in the most cans to the convention receives a Washington Leadership Conference scholarship worth $550. Participation was encouraged at the school by offering a pizza party to the classroom that brought in the most canned food. The project is designed to give students hands-on community service experience and show the value of leadership and teamwork. The Southeast chapter placed second in the challenge at the convention. Although the food drive ended on April 24, chapter officials continue to encourage community involvement with the chapter’s members. On the first row are Southeast Whitfield FFA chapter president Tanner Phipps, chapter sentinel Lacie Roberson, chapter treasurer Kelly Stocks, Kroger customer service representative Carolyn Smith and chapter vice president Hallie Cline; second row, Kroger manager Mike Piatt, assistant store manager Mark Norris and dairy manager Mike Douglas. Chapter treasurer Kelly Stocks met with local Kroger manager Mike Piatt and discussed their community participation. Piatt agreed to allow the chapter to set up a collection barrel for the students, customers and Kroger employees to place food in. This community service project was a huge success. Chapter members thank everyone who participated and especially Kroger for its generous donations. Dalton residents appealing address changes should act quickly BY CHARLES OLIVER charlesoliver@daltoncitizen.com Some Dalton residents have started getting letters alerting them that the streets their homes and businesses are on are being renamed. Those who object to the new name have an appeals process they can go through, but they’ve got to act quickly, say city officials. “We have sent out almost one thousand letters, and there may be more going out. We are still trying to determine how many addresses will be changed,” said fire code enforcement officer Eddie Hughes. The renaming is part of an effort across the county to remove duplicate addresses or change street names that might confuse emergency responders. In the city of Dalton, some 130 streets and private drives will be renamed or given names if they don’t already have one. Those on affected streets will be notified by mail. If they have any objections, residents have 10 days after receiving the letter to file an appeal. Appeal forms can be picked up at City Hall at the city clerk’s office. The form allows the person to suggest an alternative name. “Some people don’t object to the street being renamed. They just don’t like that particular name,” said city clerk Bernadette Chattam. Within 30 days of the appeal being filed, an appeals board consisting of the police chief, fire chief and public works director will consider the appeal, and the person who made the appeal will be allowed to present arguments. In turn, that board will issue a decision within 30 days of the hearing. If the person appealing still isn’t satisfied, he or she can take the matter to Superior Court. Chattam says at least three appeals have already been filed. If an appeal is filed, that street will not be renamed until the appeals process is complete. 3A AREA ARRESTS • Bobby O.

LETTERS Beaulieu needs to show mercy To the editor: I trust this letter will be received as a plea for justice and equity in a rare and distinct decision made recently in our courts. In the Percy-Smith case, Beaulieu’s attorney adamantly opposed house confinement (arrest) for a critically ill defendant. He demanded incarceration, citing house confinement was not enough punishment. Judge Harold Murphy, however, in the spirit of compassion for a dying man, recommended house confinement. The attorney for Beaulieu vehemently objected and won. The defendant’s affliction is so severe that epidural anesthesia is often the only method to relieve pain. He has a regiment of 18 meds daily and has endured unsuccessful surgeries. This only in part conveys the pain and suffering of this man. Guilty though he may be, guilt is not the significance of this particular equation. The obvious respecter of persons by class and wealth is. This case alone compared to the Beaulieu case of 2007 is another blot on our justice system. What a difference two years made in the expectations of this plaintiff attorney. When representing Beaulieu as the defense his sweet deals in plea arrangements are unprecedented. His clients — after having defrauded our government of a confirmed $33.38 million — paid restitution and were given a mere five years probation. They walked away with their charmed lifestyles intact. In fact, when their probation ends in 2012, in all probability the man they have shown no mercy will be dead. On the other side of this coin of justice, two guilty as was Beaulieu have been charged with an unconfirmed $2.5 million and more than $289,000 paid in kickbacks. Theft is theft, whatever one’s station in life. I suppose, in fact, the million dollar question would be: where was the defense for a dying man? How could a man in these dire circumstances of health be so neglected by counsel? When Beaulieu of America came to Dalton in the late 1970s, they were embraced as royalty. The CEO of the company took civic roles by storm, even to dominate the Georgia Olympics. He — not one of Dalton’s outstanding citizens — had the honor of carrying the torch through out city. Although corporate U.S. citizenship had been acknowledged, the citizenship of its owners has always been somewhat covert. Why? Dalton and our country have served the Bouckaert family and its corporation well. Let them now return a portion of this good will to one of our own, who although wrong, is deserving of mercy. The former CEO of Beaulieu has the means and power to have his attorney reverse a ruling that never should have been. Let them count their U.S. blessings for all they were spared in the name of law. Let them intervene to make certain one as guilty as were they be given sentencing comparable to theirs two years ago. Let them not forget that their criminal charges were waived in our courts. Let the limited comfort of this defendant’s remaining time on earth be in the confines of his home with access to his doctors and with the love of his life, his wife of 37 years. An 18th century writer, Oliver Goldsmith, once wrote: “Laws grind the poor and rich men rule the law.” Now in the 21st century these words resonate a truth.

The entire world has seen news and amateur photos and videos of the incident, but if President Obama has his way, taxpayers won’t be able to see the flyover photos. This will make for an interesting response to my Freedom of Information Act requests. After the bizarre mission caused distress and panic among countless New York City residents who were intentionally left in the dark about the photo-op stunt, I filed public records requests with the Office of the Secretary of Defense and the Joint Staff FOIA Requester Service Center. The first one requests any and all communication — including e-mail and other public records and including any and all correspondence between the White House Military Office, Department of Defense and other agencies — related to the planned federal aerial mission over New York City. Specifically, I requested all public records related to and including the flight manifests and related to the origin of the request for the mission. The second filing requests any and all photos taken during the planned federal aerial mission approved by the White House Military Office. What rationale could they possibly use to stifle public disclosure? National security? These were glamour shots to enhance the Air Force One photo portfolio. That’s no secret. Withholding the photos serves only one purpose: protecting the backsides of those involved in this botched PR mission. From Day One, Obama has demonstrated a rather self- serving selectivity when it comes to transparency. The Obama W h i t e H o u s e rushed to reverse an Michelle 18-year ban photoMalkin graphing the flagdraped coffins of troops arriving back on American soil. And at the behest of the American Civil Liberties Union, his administration is set to release at least 21 classified photographs by May 28 showing detainee abuse in prisons in Iraq and Afghanistan. Openness in government is fine if it hurts America’s reputation, but not if it harms Obama’s. Moreover, hostility to transparency is a running thread through Obama’s cabinet: ■ Secretary of State Hillary Clinton for years fought disclosure of massive donations from foreign governments and corporations that filled her husband’s library and foundation coffers. ■ Top Obama adviser David Axelrod ran fear-mongering campaigns in support of a huge utility rate hike — and failed to disclose that the ads were funded for Commonwealth Edison. ■ Labor Secretary Hilda Solis failed to disclose that she was director and treasurer of a union-promoting lobbying group pushing legislation that she was co-sponsoring. ■ Attorney General Eric Holder overruled his own lawyers on the issue of D.C. voting rights (which he and Obama support) and refused to make public the staffers’ opinion that a House bill on the matter was unconstitutional. ■ And as I reported last month, Obama’s nominee for the No. 2 official at the Department of Housing and Urban Development, former King County, Wash., executive Ron Sims, has the distinction of being the most fined government official in his state’s history for suppressing public records from taxpayers. Obama set the tone, breaking his transparency pledge with the very first bill he signed into law. On January 29, the White House announced that the Lily Ledbetter Fair Pay Act had been posted online for review. One problem: Obama had already signed it — in violation of his “sunlight before signing” pledge. Obama broke the pledge again with the mad rush to pass his trillion-dollar porkstuffed stimulus package full of earmarks he denied existed. Jim Harper of the Cato Institute reported in April 2009: “Of the eleven bills President Obama has signed, only six have been posted on Whitehouse.gov. None have been posted for a full five days after presentment from Congress.” It’s this utter disregard for taxpayer accountability that prompted hundreds of thousands of citizens to take to the streets on Tax Day for Tea Party protests. The trampling of transparency inspired signs that read: “No legislation without deliberation” and “READ THE BILL FIRST.” Obama’s response was first to claim that he hadn’t even heard of the Tea Party movement, and then, on his 100-day celebration, to deride all those Americans he is supposed to represent for “playing games.” ■ Michelle Malkin is author of “Unhinged: Exposing Liberals Gone Wild.” Her e-mail address is malkinblog@gmail.com. THE DAILY CITIZEN TODAY IN HISTORY Today is Friday, May 8, the 128th day of 2009. There are 237 days left in the year. On this date: In 1541, Spanish explorer Hernando de Soto reached the Mississippi River. In 1794, Antoine Lavoisier, the father of modern chemistry, was executed on the guillotine. In 1846, the first major battle of the MexicanAmerican War was fought at Palo Alto, Texas; U.S. forces led by Gen. Zachary Taylor were able to beat back the Mexican forces. In 1958, Vice President Richard Nixon was shoved, stoned, booed and spat upon by antiAmerican protesters in Lima, Peru. In 1970, anti-war protests took place across the United States and around the world; in New York, construction workers broke up a demonstration on Wall Street. In 1973, militant American Indians who’d held the South Dakota hamlet of Wounded Knee for 10 weeks surrendered. In 1978, David R. Berkowitz pleaded guilty in a Brooklyn courtroom to murder, attempted murder and assault in connection with the “Son of Sam” shootings that had terrified New Yorkers. In 1984, the Soviet Union announced it would boycott the upcoming Summer Olympic Games in Los Angeles. Ten years ago: NATO expressed regret for a mistaken attack on the Chinese Embassy in Belgrade, but pledged to pursue the bombing campaign. One year ago: Sen. Barack Obama got a frontrunner’s welcome back at the U.S. Capitol, where he was surrounded by wellwishers calling him “Mr. President” and reaching out to pat him on the back or shake his hand. Silvio Berlusconi was sworn in as Italy’s premier. Today’s Birthdays: Comedian Don Rickles is 83. Naturalist Sir David Attenborough is 83. Singer Toni Tennille is 69. Actor James Mitchum is 68. Jazz musician Keith Jarrett is 64. Singer Philip Bailey (Earth, Wind and Fire) is 58. Rockabilly singer Billy Burnette is 56. Drummer Alex Van Halen is 56. Actor David Keith is 55. Actor Stephen Furst is 55. Actress Melissa Gilbert is 45. Rock musician Dave Rowntree (Blur) is 45. Singer Enrique Iglesias is 34. A future I’m happy to embrace After too long an absence, I finally returned to sacred ground at the University of Georgia. For all my babbling about my love for UGA, I have not felt welcomed there for several years. President Michael Adams seems to view me as just short of radioactive, and a journalism professor acted like a petulant 2-year-old in front of my wife because I had written something he didn’t like. I decided at that point that I could live without the university, since it was quite apparent they could live without me. Therefore, it was with trepidation that I appeared on campus at the Grady College of Journalism at UGA at the invitation of Dean Cully Clark and his staff to view my new portrait being hung there. The event no doubt disappointed many of my detractors who had assumed I was the one being hanged, not my likeness. Sorry about that. It was a spectacular day in Athens, and I told someone that when I kick the bucket if I didn’t qualify for heaven — which seems likely despite the best efforts of Dr. Gil Watson, the World’s Greatest Preacher — I would take Athens in the springtime as my second choice. The unveiling was made even more special by being able to spend time with a very impressive group of students. Dean Clark says today’s college students are bright as a new penny (thanks in large part to Zell Miller and the HOPE scholarships that have kept many of our best students in state). They are focused on their future, but they care also about the world in which they live and a lot of things my generation didn’t give much thought to: the environment, poverty and whether we will live in peace or blow ourselves to bits. After my conversation with these young people, I decided I had Dick been away too long Yarbrough and that the Grady College deserves more of my time and tithes. Shame on me for letting a few people spoil my love affair with my alma mater. I will be back. I followed my visit to Athens with a trip to Gainesville to speak at a luncheon celebrating the third year of the Hall County Honors Mentorship Program. This program pairs honor students in the county’s six high schools with local professionals — doctors, ministers, artists, writers, attorneys, businesspeople — six hours a week for 12 to 14 weeks. Any school system in Georgia that does not have such a program like the one in Hall County ought to get busy putting one together. And that do-nothing bunch in the Legislature ought to be encouraging these kinds of efforts instead of running around trying to furlough teachers and micromanage everything they do. Like many counties in Georgia, Hall County and its school system are going through tough economic times, but that has not stopped educators and a forwardthinking business community from investing in the best and brightest students in the county and giving them realworld experience. Before I spoke, Chase Staub, a senior at North Hall High School, and Nidia Bland, a junior at Flowery Branch High School, talked about their own experiences in the program without a single “uh” or “you know” or “like.” By the time they got through wowing the crowd, I could have read the Clermont phone book and nobody would have cared. Sadly, the druggies and the dropouts and the “pitiful” public schools will continue to get most of the public’s attention, but trust me — there are a lot of good kids all over this state like the ones I saw in Athens and Gainesville, and a lot of hard-working schoolteachers busting their tails every day to give them the best education possible. In addition, our colleges, universities and technical schools — which are among the best in the nation — are turning out some outstanding young men and women well prepared to take over from us and run the show, probably better than we did. Wring your hands if you wish, but I have glimpsed Georgia’s future and I like what I see. ■ You can reach Dick Yarbrough at yarb2400@bellsouth.net, P.O.

THE DAILY CITIZEN Friday, May 8, 2009 5A Importance of prayer reminded on National Day of Prayer BY RACHEL BROWN rachelbrown@daltoncitizen.c om Along with a return to the Bible, praying is the best way to change a community for the better, said Dean McNeese, a Baptist evangelist who participated in a National Day of Prayer ceremony Thursday in Whitfield County. More than 250 people attended the 21st annual local event on the lawn of the courthouse. Leaders from several local churches led themed prayers with each person petitioning with a specific message. They prayed for the military, government leaders, public servants like firefighters and police officers, churches, the community, youth and for a revival. This marks the first time in eight years that the White House hasn’t held a public ceremony for the National Day of Prayer. President Obama did sign a proclamation calling upon Americans “to pray in thanksgiving for our freedoms and blessings ...” President Harry Truman first established the National Day of Prayer in 1952, and President Ronald Reagan in 1988 decreed that the observance would fall on the first Thursday in May. Lenard Whaley, a member of Grove Level Baptist Church and a former Whitfield County administrator, led the prayer for government leaders. “Give them wisdom, give them courage, give them compassion, and give them faith,” Whaley said. Dalton Mayor David Pennington read a proclamation declaring the city’s observance of the day. “We are all God’s handiwork, and it is appropriate for us as individuals and as a nation to come to God in prayer,” he said. McNeese, an evangelist who attends Nellie Head Memorial Baptist Church, prayed the Lord would “send a revival of repentance in our churches” and that Americans would “stop MATT HAMILTON/The Daily Citizen Pastor Roy Gentry leads the prayer for revival Thursday at the Whitfield County Courthouse. killing babies and promoting sodomites.” One prayer leader acknowledged the declining economy but added that God is “bigger than any problems that we’re going through.” Dalton resident Marion Duckett said he attended the ceremony for the first time this year out of a desire to pray for the nation. He has been unemployed for three weeks and attends Olivia Baptist Church. “Lord knows our country needs a lot of prayer,” he said. Home school student Victoria Whitt, 14, said her family attended as a way to participate in a community event. She attends Faith Baptist Church in Ringgold. Pastor Mark Seay of Swamp Creek Baptist Church said in his prayer that America is “far from where we need to be today, but we pray that you would turn us around.” It begins with individuals, not government leaders, he added. “Before revival can happen in the courthouse (or the White House or state house) ... revival has to happen in the church house and in my house,” he said. Linda Hicks of Nellie Head Memorial Baptist sang two solos, and a choir of female students from Dogwood Christian Academy also performed. Murray County residents observed the 56th annual National Day of Prayer Thursday evening in the Murray County High School auditorium. Area residents pray Thursday on the National Day of Prayer at the courthouse. It was the 21st annual local event. Students from Dogwood Christian Academy perform during the National Day of Prayer Thursday at the Whitfield County Courthouse. Traffic light cameras gone 61st Anniversary As of Monday, all traffic light cameras in Dalton have been taken down as directed by the mayor and City Council, police department officials say. The department has asked the Public Works Department to take down the traffic signs in the area of these intersections as soon as possible.

The rustic lodge is accessible only by wilderness trail. Take a trip to Len Foote Hike-Inn SUBMITTED BY DALTON STATE COLLEGE DSC Destinations will celebrate the beauty of Georgia’s springtime with a Memorial Day weekend hike and overnight stay at Amicalola’s Len Foote HikeInn, a rustic retreat accessible only by wilderness trail. According to Carol Burton, DSC Destinations coordinator and Hike-Inn veteran, the Len Foote is perfect for those who enjoy wilderness hiking but prefer a comfy bed, hot showers and great food instead of camping. “Southern Living described the Len Foote Hike-Inn at Amicalola as ‘a wilderness experience without actually roughing it,’” said Burton, who will be escorting a DSC Destinations group to the Len Foote for the third time. “It is one of the newer, unique and more popular of Georgia’s state park facilities. It was built primarily as a stopover for through hikers on the Appalachian Trail and has become a popular inn for those wishing an overnight excursion.” “We’ll leave as a group from the college to drive to Amicalola,” Burton said. “The inn is accessible only by foot over a moderate fivemile hiking trail which originates at the top of Amicalola Falls. Although much of the way is an easy walk, there are some climbs of moderate difficulty.” After arriving at the HikeInn, guests are invited to settle in and begin their explorations with a guided tour of the award-winning facility. Beverages are available in the dining room where adventurers can pull up a chair and chat with fellow hikers who have come from all areas of the country to enjoy the colorful beauty of springtime in the North Georgia mountains. Dinner and breakfast are served family style. Following dinner, hikers will enjoy a program outlining the history of the famous Appalachian Trail which begins at Springer Mountain, just eight miles from the state park and the inn. The trail covers approximately 2,175 miles through 14 states, ending at Mount Katahdin, Maine. Hikers are invited to take advantage of front row seats to a mountaintop sunrise the next morning from the Sunrise Room before gathering for breakfast. Box lunches will be provided for the hike out. GOODBYE A free information session on the trip will be held at Dalton State at the James E. Brown Center on Tuesday, May 19, at 7 p.m. Cost for the overnight adventure is $195 per couple and includes transportation to and from Amicalola Falls State Park, dinner, breakfast and box lunch. Price is $155 for a single. The group will hike in Saturday, May 23, and out Sunday, May 24. “You must be physically able to hike in and out, five miles each way, to participate in this activity,” Burton said. “It’s physical, but it’s a spectacular way to enjoy all that our beautiful North Georgia mountains have to offer.” To learn more, visit DSC Destinations at www.daltonstate.edu/cce/travel, call Burton at (706) 272-4454 or e-mail travel@dalton state.edu. The first Peacock Party will take place this Saturday from 1 to 4 p.m. at the barn at historic Prater’s Mill near Dalton. “Join us as we celebrate the legacy of the ‘Mothers of our Industry’ and learn about ‘The Genius of Girls and the Women Who Changed Our World,’” said artist Jane Galay. Activities for the day are: ■ Tea and refreshments by Peacock Alley Antique Gallery and Specialty Shop and the Women of the Church of God of the Union Assembly ■ Chenille and textile family heirlooms at the Goodner-Smith Farm Collection ■ “Show Us Your Genius” at the Peacock Powered Artworks for Kids ■ Draw a peacock ■ Paint a glass window ■ Wear a peacock tattoo ■ Peacocks on Parade, Denise Newton-Arnold’s clothesline display of vintage peacock chenille bedspreads ■ The Peacock Project, Newton-Arnold’s ongoing documentation, dating and identifying of chenille spread designers, workers and manufacturers. ■ Faux chenille painting by Sherry Sexton ■ Bring your vintage chenille for identification by Waymon Kile, whose family owned Coahulla Chenille once located at Prater’s Mill, and Jeannette Cocker, who grew up on Peacock Alley, U.S. Highway 41. ■ At 2 p.m., witness the unveiling of the Peacock Barn Design by artist Jane Galay.

Magazine names J&J large business of the year FROM STAFF REPORTS Dalton’s J&J Industries has been named by Georgia Trend magazine as the large business of the year in the magazine’s 2009 Family Business Awards. “We are clearly flattered and humbled,” said J&J CEO Jim Bethel. The recipients are selected by the Cox Family Business Center at Kennesaw State University. The article in the May issue notes that is it rare for a company to survive for more than 50 years and multiple generations as J&J has. “For any business that’s family owned to transcend a generation and go to the next you need two very important things. One, you need a family member that’s interested in the business and willing to carry it on to the next generation. That’s not always the case,” Bethel said. “And second, that individual has to have the skills needed to run a business, and we’ve been fortu- nate to have that. We think the next generation is in place and has the leadership, and we think it will go on from there.” The article notes the company has placed a strong emphasis on being environmentally friendly by reducing the water and raw materials used in the manufacture of carpet and by recycling carpet samples. Bethel said that focus on the environment is one of the company’s top priorities. 7A Introduction to Belly Dance, one of the most wellreceived winter session classes, is back on the Dalton State College Center for Continuing Education schedule for spring and summer. Popular instructor and professional dancer Lauryn Peterson returns to teach Introduction to Belly Dance and Introduction to Belly Dance Level II for those who’ve already taken the first course or who have prior belly dance experience. “Wow, was this class a hit,” said Kelly Snyder, personal enrichment program director for continuing education. “The class was full with a waiting list during winter session. The women lucky enough to get in the class had a marvelous time and received outstanding instruction from Lauryn. She is professionally trained and has a lot of performance experience, including dancing currently with two professional dance troupes. Her warm personality infuses great positive energy into her classes. Continuing Education hit the jackpot with this talented, kind instructor.” Belly dance is a beautiful dance art form that truly is for all women, said Peterson. “All women look beautiful belly dancing,” she said. “It is truly something that surpasses body type, age and size. I personally found belly dance at a time when I was going through somewhat of a personal struggle. I had bounced between being overweight and underweight. Professional dancer and instructor Lauryn Peterson returns to the James E. Brown Center to teach belly dance classes. When I began belly dance, I found a skill that I could work with and have fun with, all while giving myself healthy exercise. Belly dance truly provides physical, emotional and mental health benefits to the dancer.” Physically, belly dance usually includes a yogic warm-up and then provides a great low-impact core workout. As dancers increase their skill level, belly dance may also provide cardiovascular benefits through the dance movements. “Mental benefits of belly dance include a workout for your mind as you remember different steps and combinations while counting beats and learning rhythms of new music,” said Peterson. “Also, belly dance requires the dancer to layer arm move- ments on top of hip and feet work. It’s like having to rub your head and pat your belly at the same time — an odd skill that belly dancers pick up quickly.” Women also benefit emotionally from belly dance by spending time with other women, experiencing stress relief from dancing, and boosted self-image and body image. “With belly dance, women learn the amazing, feminine things their bodies are capable of doing,” Peterson said. “You are participating in an art form that has been practiced since ancient times. It’s amazing and wonderful when you think about it.” Peterson describes her teaching style as fun and diverse. She caters to multiple learning styles by breaking down the movements in more than one way. “I am very open to questions,” Peterson said. “I like to keep things upbeat, use a sense of humor, and am gentle in making any corrections. Belly dance is fun. The dance itself is fun, the costuming is fun — and we’ll talk more about that on the first night of class — and the camaraderie is fun. Treat yourself and register for one of these classes. I really want to see my veteran students return to the college.” Introduction to Belly Dance and Introduction to Belly Dance Level II begin Monday, May 11, in the James E. Brown Center for Continuing Education. For more information or to register, log on to www.daltonstate.edu/cce or call (706) 272-4489. Mother’s Day Special!

Hamilton Medical installs new magnet SUBMITTED BY HAMILTON HEALTH CARE SYSTEM Last week Hamilton Medical Center received a very large package — a new MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) unit. The 1.5 Tesla Open MRI magnet weighs approximately 13,000 pounds, so large that it had to be lifted and set in place by a large crane through an opening made by temporarily removing two wall panels. Installation of the magnet is now under way and the unit should be fully operational by June 1. A major advantage of the new open magnet is that it is able to accommodate very heavy patients. The open design also makes it easier for patients who are claustrophobic. According to radiology director Stan Casteel, many people experience claustrophobic anxiety in a traditional magnet. “An open MRI scanner is ideal for people who experience anxiety in enclosed spaces,” Casteel said. “Instead of lying in a narrow tunnel, there is more space around the body so that the person being tested is not completely surrounded by the magnet.” He added, “Most MRI procedures can be performed with the patient’s head outside the unit, which also greatly SUBMITTED BY NORTH GEORGIA COMMUNITY ACTION INC.

Pennington A n d whether you are local government, state government, the federal government or private businesses, you’ll need to restructure,” he said. Pennington said the county government is the logical place for this restructuring locally. “Government in this community needs to be organized around the county level,” he said. Pennington said much of the city of Dalton’s recent drive to combine and consolidate government services flows from this idea. “It’s a whole lot easier to get a collective vision together when you have one organizing force,” he said. Tunnel Hill Mayor Kenny Gowin updated the audience on several projects the city is working on. He said he is excited the county is helping Dalton Utilities to extend sewerage to Tunnel Hill. The Board of Commissioners agreed in March to pay $1 million to help extend sewer from the Mill Creek wastewater treatment plant near Crow Valley Road north along Highway 41 to Tunnel Hill. “This is going to be good for the whole county, not just Tunnel Hill,” Gowin said. Varnell Mayor Dan Peeples spoke about several projects that city is working on. He said the city renovated several of its recreational facilities, with new scoreboards at the ball fields and new roofs over the dugouts and new sod on the fields. -fil-A 15 $ per Person (Riders) SHOWS!

The reserves at the beginning of 2009 was $24 million. The state recommends we keep three months worth of reserves for cash flow and emergencies, which is about $12 million. So we’ve got another $12 million to help us get through the next few years.” Babb said the county has already cut spending $5 million, to about $45.6 million, from 2008. But the county will still have a $4 million deficit this year. He said the county is looking at other ways to reduce spending, including putting its ambulance service out for bids. The county currently owns the ambulances but pays about $600,000 annually to Hamilton Medical System to run the system. “They are delivering a good service, but we’ve still got to look at the costs,” he said. “We have decided we’ll run out the rest of the year with the current ambulance service, unless something drastic happens.” Hamilton has operated the ambulance service since 1986. Whitfield Emergency Medical Service currently has seven ambulances on call and two in reserve and 57 employees. It answered some 13,000 calls in 2008. Babb said this won’t be a decision the board takes lightly. “We all remember when we had private ambulance service in Whitfield County, and one day they all just disappeared,” he said. Hamilton Health Care System president and CEO John Bowling said after the breakfast that Hamilton would bid on the ambulance service if the county puts it up for bids. “Our citizens want and deserve excellence in emergency services, and we have a record of delivering on the promise to extend exceptional care and personal service at a reasonable cost,” he said.

But at the same time, the Legislature did away with the homestead t a x exemption grant,” he s a i d . “ T h a t means that even if the millage rate doesn’t go up, the taxes Babb you pay, the check you write, will go up because the grants from the state are no longer there.” The homestead tax exemption grant compensates local governments for exempting part of the property value of homeowners from property taxes. The state hasn’t ended the grants but has set up a formula for funding them that Babb says guarantees they won’t be funded for at least the next couple of years, making local governments and school systems less likely to provide the homestead exemption. Whitfield County tax commissioner Danny Sane said after the breakfast that the state’s action could add $150 to $250 to the average homeowners’ property tax bill, “The fact that they are not going to fund that, there’s nothing we can do about that,” Sane said. “And the unfortunate thing is it couldn’t come at a worse time.” Babb says he doesn’t expect the county to increase its property tax rate but he also doesn’t expect it to be cut this year, as it has in years past. He said the county already expects to have to dip into its reserves to fund its operating budget. “We spent more than we took in in 2008. We are going to spend more than we take in in 2009.

Tedeschi Universal Media Syndicate (UMS) – Over 10 million doses have been shipped to dieters so far, and sales continue to climb every day for the diet supplement called Apatrim®. “We knew we had a great product, but it’s even exceeded our expectations,” said Ken Geis, Manager of Call Center Operations for PatentHEALTH the company that developed the clinically tested weight loss supplement. “People just keep placing orders, it’s been pretty amazing,” he said. But a closer look at this weight loss sensation suggests that maybe the company shouldn’t have been caught off guard by its success. There are some very good reasons for Apatrim’s surging popularity. To begin with, the clinical test results were very impressive. Participants taking Apatrim’s active ingredient lost an average of 400% more weight than those taking a placebo during the 4-week U.S. clinical study. These remarkable results were achieved without additional exercise or diets.1* Apatrim comes from a natural edible plant source. It’s safe, as well as easy to use. This weight loss supplement can actually begin working the very first day. And since researchers believe Apatrim works to suppress appetite, most people can eat what they want and still lose weight.* “By suppressing their appetite, most people will consume fewer calories which can lead to weight loss,” said Dr. Joseph Dietz, Director of Health Science, Research & Development for PatentHEALTH. “Consumers should always keep in mind that there is no substitute for proper diet and exercise when it comes to losing weight.”* Impressive clinical results Apatrim’s active ingredient has a known ability to help control hunger pangs. This allows people to eat the foods they want and always seem to be craving because they’ll just want to eat less.* The U.S. clinical study was conducted in Los Angeles. The study included healthy, overweight individuals between the ages of 31 and 73. The caloric intake and level of exercise was not disclosed. The participants were instructed not to change the food they were eating and not to add any exercise. Specifically, no changes to their daily routine; just take the recommended dosage 30-minutes before lunch and dinner. A remarkable 100% of the participants taking Apatrim as directed ■ POPULAR PILL: Allison Garwood (front) and Renee Pellegrini pick up a bottle of the breakthrough weight loss supplement called Apatrim® at the pharmacy.

Those losing weight lost an average of 5 times more than study participants who were taking the placebo pills.* Some participants experienced fabulous results, losing as much as 8 lbs and up to 3 inches off their waistline. These amazing results were achieved without changes in lifestyle. All they did was take the pills as instructed.2* Professional support Industry trends along with professional’s support in the weight loss and fitness industries indicate that Apatrim is the real thing. This amazing pill is being recommended to companies and clients across the country. Mark Loy, a personal trainer has had some of his clients use Apatrim with great success.3 “When I’m working with my clients I can control what they’re eating,” said Loy. “But when they leave they’re on their own and that’s when the tendency to cheat comes into play,” he continued. “I heard about Apatrim so I checked out the facts then decided to try it as a part of my training program,” Loy said. “It’s really helped some of my clients to control their eating. I’ve watched people get some amazing results while taking Apatrim,” said Loy. “Sign me up, I’m a believer.”2 Dr. Joseph Dietz was impressed with the quality of the clinical trials as well as the U.S. patent (#7,060,308). This patent protects the proprietary method of extracting the active ingredient. This process is what the developing scientists believe is the key to the active ingredient’s effectiveness. “When I read the clinical results, the U.S. patent and all of the other scientific support I immediately knew we needed to use this weight loss compound,” said Dietz. “The results are real; Apatrim is a great product that’s been shown to help people lose weight.”* Where to get it All of the national retail pharmacies including Walmart, CVS/pharmacy and Walgreens have placed orders for Apatrim. There have been some reports of out-of-stocks, so to make it easier for people to get it right away a Regional Health Hotline has been put in place for the next 48 hours. Starting at 8:00am today, all consumers have to do is call 1-866-964-2349 and ask for Dept.

Drug stores load up with powerful joint pill Sales skyrocketing; news of its amazing results spread across the U.S. By G.W. Napier Universal Media Syndicate UMS - Consumers can’t seem to get enough of it and drug stores are selling it as fast as they can get it. “Unbelievable, that’s all I can say,” said Darla Miller, Operations Manager for PatentHEALTH the company that developed the breakthrough joint supplement. Miller was referring to the fact that in just one day a drug store chain sold 2,000 bottles of the powerful joint health supplement called Trigosamine®. “We’ve already shipped over 500,000 bottles of Trigosamine and sales just keep growing, it’s been crazy,” said Miller. Scientists have developed this amazing oral tablet that doesn’t require a prescription and is taken only once a day. It’s so impressive that one key ingredient has the ability to retain fluid up to 1000 times its own weight; this helps increase lubrication for the joints allowing them to move with ease.* Trigosamine’s key ingredient is Hyaluronate also called HA-13 which is the building block of “natural joint fluid,” medically known as synovial fluid. This joint fluid reduces friction in the joints allowing for effortless motion. It not only lubricates the joints, but it also acts as a comfortable shock absorber. “As we age, the body’s natural production of this fluid declines and this can force the bones in our joints to grind together which can result in nagging discomfort,” said Dr. Joseph Dietz.1 “Using Trigosamine is like taking a can of oil and applying it directly to your joints,” said Dr. Dietz.* Trigosamine combines HA-13 with the essential blend of glucosamine and chondroitin which have been clinically shown to help build healthy cartilage in the joints allowing for increased flexibility and range of motion.* A clinical study conducted by the United States govern- ment found that glucosamine and chondroitin, similar to those found in Trigosamine, had a 79.2% effective rate for those with moderate to severe joint discomfort.2* But it’s the results that make this joint supplement so impressive. “We get messages from consumers all the time telling us how great Trigosamine works for them,” said Miller. “Everybody wants it,” added Miller. “CVS/pharmacy was one of the first ones to order Trigosamine and they’ve loaded up their shelves. We’ve received reports that showtheyhavesome inventory left,” said Miller. “And to make it easier for people who can’t find Trigosamine or don’t want to go to the store, we’ve set up a National Order Hotline so they can have it delivered directly to their home,” said Miller. “We’ll be offering a direct delivery discount for the next 72 hours, and consumers should know they can’t get this discount at drug stores,” she added.

The Federal Reserve’s findings show the financial system, like the overall economy, is healing but not yet healed. Some of the largest banks are stable, the tests found. But others need billions more in capital — a signal by regulators that the industry is vulnerable but viable. Government officials have said a stronger banking system is needed for an economic rebound. DPD launches ‘E-Policing’ Web site SUBMITTED BY THE DALTON POLICE DEPARTMENT The Dalton Police Department has started a new Web site hosted by “E-Policing” designed to give citizens more access to information about crime in the community and improve communication between citizens and the police department. The site, dpdonline.org, is now online. It can be accessed directly, or through a link at the Dalton Police blog at daltonpdblog.org. The site features an interactive map of Dalton that displays the locations and types of crimes reported in the city. Users can center the map on any address and search for crime reports in radiuses of up to 2.5 miles from the location. Users can also sort the crime reports by date, in spans of as many as 28 days from any date in the last two years. Users can also specify the specific types of crime they are interested in searching for from a menu on the screen. When clicked, each “push-pin” signifying a crime report displays the type of event, when it occurred, a report number, and the name and e-mail address of the officer who took the report. The Web site is part of the Dalton Police Department’s neighborhood policing effort, which was announced earlier this year. Each officer in the department has been assigned a neighborhood beat approximately six city blocks in size. Officers are spending part of their daily shifts patrolling in these areas, and also conducting foot patrol in the area and meeting with citizens to exchange contact information. The idea is to establish communication with residents outside of emergency situations. Citizens will be encouraged to share information about anything out of the ordinary in their neighborhood, even if it’s not a crime in progress or an emergency. The officer assigned to a neighborhood beat will be the contact person within the department for any questions or concerns. As part of this effort, citizens can sign up for e-mail alerts at the new Web site. The information on the site can be used to send e-mails to residents of specific neighborhood beats if needed. “The new Web site is an integral part of our Neighborhood Policing Program,” said Chief Jason Parker. “Putting together this Web site, along with assigning officers to very small sections of the city, we hope will add a personal touch that will be a complement to a very modern police department.” Currently, the crime information at dpdonline.org is updated approximately twice a week. Later this summer, it will be updated daily. Poetry Winners Equipment lags troops’ arrival CAMP LEATHERNECK, Afghanistan — Thousands of U.S. troops are being rushed to Afghanistan without the equipment they will need to fight an emboldened Taliban, U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates and military officials said Thursday. The equipment delay is “a considerable concern,” Gates said as he toured a dusty forward base in south Afghanistan where some 200 newly deployed Marines and sailors are arriving each day as part of the buildup of 21,000 new U.S. troops. Marines who arrived in southern Afghanistan this week mark the vanguard of the expansion Obama has ordered to reverse a war his commanders say they are not winning. The initial Marine units are small advance parties, to be followed by much larger waves of forces in the coming weeks. Demjanjuk loses bid on deportation CLEVELAND — Alleged Nazi death camp guard John Demjanjuk lost his bid Thursday to get the U.S. Supreme Court to stop his deportation to Germany, where an arrest warrant accuses him of 29,000 counts of accessory to murder during World War II. Justice John Paul Stevens denied, without comment, Demjanjuk’s plea to step into his case. The 89-yearold retired autoworker lives in suburban Cleveland, and he, his family and his lawyers say he’s in poor health and too frail to be sent overseas. Demjanjuk maintains he was held by the Germans as a Soviet prisoner of war and was never a camp guard. Students warned to stay indoors MIDDLETOWN, Conn. — Wesleyan University students were told to stay in their dorms and the city’s only synagogue closed Thursday as police warned that the man wanted in the shooting death of a woman at a bookstore may be bent on killing other students and Jews. Apparently applying the lessons of Virginia Tech, police and administrators locked down the 3,000-student campus and stepped up patrols as authorities hunted for the killer. Johanna Justin-Jinich, a 21year-old Wesleyan student, was shot several times Wednesday inside a bookstore cafe just off campus by a gunman wearing a wig. Two years ago, she complained to police in New York that the suspect, 29-year-old Stephen P. Morgan, had stalked and threatened her. Sen. Specter’s seniority ignored WASHINGTON — Republican-turnedDemocratic Sen. Arlen Specter gained a Judiciary subcommittee chairmanship but also a potential primary challenger Thursday, the latest twists in a turbulent episode of party switching. The good news-bad news day for Specter didn’t stop there. Former Pa. Gov. Tom Ridge announced he would not challenge Specter next year. Ridge had been running about even against Specter in a hypothetical general election race.

Flu overhyped? ARMED FORCES DAY May 16, 2009 MEMORIAL DAY Some say officials ‘cried swine’ CHICAGO (AP) — Did government health officials “cry swine” when they sounded the alarm on what looked like a threatening new flu? The so-far mild swine flu outbreak has many people saying all the talk about a devastating global epidemic was just fear-mongering hype. But that’s not how public health officials see it, calling complacency the thing that keeps them up at night. The World Health Organization added a scarysounding warning Thursday, predicting up to 2 billion people could catch the new flu if the outbreak turns into a global epidemic. Many blame such alarms and the breathless media coverage for creating an overreaction that disrupted many people’s lives. Schools shut down, idling even healthy kids and forcing parents to stay home from work; colleges scaled back or even canceled graduation ceremonies; a big Cinco de Mayo celebration in Chicago was canned; face masks and hand sanitizers sold out — all because of an outbreak that seems no worse than a mild flu season. “I don’t know anyone who has it. I haven’t met anyone who knows anyone who contracted it,” said Carl Shepherd, a suburban Four Paws Pet Resort 1737 Sane Road 706-428-9937 www.4pawsresort.net Chicago video producer and father of two. “It’s really frightening more people than it should have. It’s like crying wolf.” Two weeks after news broke about the new flu strain, there have been 46 deaths — 44 in Mexico and two in the United States. More than 2,300 are sick in 26 countries, including about 900 U.S. cases. Those are much lower numbers than were feared at the start based on early reports of an aggressive and deadly flu in Mexico. Miranda Smith, whose graduation ceremony at Cisco Junior College in central Texas was canceled to avoid spreading the flu, blames the media. “It’s been totally overblown,” she said Thursday. “Everyone seems to know it’s not going to kill you and it’s not as deadly as they think,” she said. “Everybody needs to just calm down and chill out.” Craig Heyl of Decatur, Ga., said the government overreacted. “Swine flu is just another strain of flu. People get the $15 Off Grooming New Customers Only Not good with other offers. Expires 5/31/09 flu. I guess you have to call it a pandemic when it’s a widespread virus, but I don’t think the severity of it is all that concerning,” said Heyl, 43. Public health authorities acknowledge their worst fears about the new virus have not materialized. But no one’s officially saying it’s time to relax. And experts worry that people will become too complacent and tune out the warnings if the virus returns in a more dangerous form in the fall. “People are taking a sigh of relief too soon,” said Dr. Richard Besser, acting director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. In an interview Wednesday with The Associated Press, Besser said the outbreak in the United States appears to be less severe than was first feared. But the virus is still spreading and its future potential as a killer is not clearly understood. May 26, 2009 FREEDOM IS NOT AND NEVER HAS BEEN FREE!

Frank Baum called Munchkin Country in his 1900 book “The Wonderful Wizard of Oz.” Carroll said in a 2007 interview that the Munchkins made only $125 a week while filming the movie that would become a classic. “The Wizard of Oz” was Carroll’s only movie. When it appeared on television, he NWGA Home Health & Oxygen Oxygen & Hospital Equipment (706) 226-0520 412 North Park Drive Dalton found a new career at charitable events, retail events and Oz-related events. But it was his role as one of the “Oz” Munchkins that defined him. Carroll played the part of the Munchkinland “Town Crier,” marched as a “Munchkin Soldier” and was the candy-striped “Fiddler” who escorted the movie’s wide-eyed orphan, Dorothy Gale, played by Judy Garland, down the yellow brick road toward Emerald City.

The Catamounts, who won sub-region and region titles on their way to the Class 4A state playoffs, hope to continue their success today as the Winder-Barrow Bulldoggs come to town for a best-of-three series. All together now Northwest Whitfield has become a factory for pole vault champions, and Bruins senior Jake Bridges is the latest off the assembly line. Bridges vaulted 14 feet on Thursday at the Class 4A state track and field meet at Jefferson’s Memorial Stadium to win the school’s Bridges third state vault title in four years. Nate Woodason won titles in 2006 — his sophomore season — and 2008, when he set a state meet record at 14-9 3/4. He placed second during an injury-plagued junior season. Now, Bridges finds himself in the title spotlight after finishing second to Woodason last spring. “I was real happy,” Bridges said in a telephone interview from Jefferson. “I felt like a lot of hard work really paid off.” But Bridges wasn’t alone on the medal stand. Fellow Bruins senior A.J. Meyer claimed a state championship by running 4:27.2 in the 1,600 meters, the opening day’s final event. McIntosh led the Class 4A BY LARRY FLEMING With the 2009 baseball season down to the win-or-go-home phase, Dalton’s fifth-ranked Catamounts will host Winder-Barrow in a doubleheader today to start a best-ofthree series in the first round of the Class 4A state tournament. Game 1 is scheduled to start at 5:30 p.m. with the nightcap slated for 8 p.m. Dalton is the Region 74A champion with a 21-4 record and is riding an 18-game winning streak. The visiting Bulldoggs, the No. 4 seed from Region 8-4A, are 17-8 and have won seven of their past nine. The opening-round matchup pits Dalton’s powerhouse offense and stingy pitching against the Bulldoggs’ solid pitching and a more than adequate offense. The Cats — whose 2008 season ended when they dropped a secondround state tournament series to Heritage-Rockdale, also a member of 8-4A — clinched the Region 74A title with a two-game sweep of South Paulding a week ago. Dalton is getting clutch contributions from just about everyone on the roster and that’s likely its biggest advantage at this point in the season — that and a guarantee of playing the first two rounds of the state tournament at home. “They don’t care who does it for us,” said Dalton coach Bobby ➣ Please see CATS, 2B PRO BASEBALL Manny must sit out 50 BY RONALD BLUM Associated Press Writer NEW YORK — Manny Ramirez joined a growing lineup of All-Stars linked to drugs Thursday, with the dreadlocked slugger banished for 50 games by a sport that cannot shake free from scandal.

Bridges and Caleb Ebbetts of Lee County came in as the premeet favorites in the pole vault event. Both had cleared 13 feet during the season. However, Ebbetts went out at 12 feet, leaving the door wide open for Bridges. “I basically won at 13,” Bridges said. “The other guy went out at 13 and he wound up finishing seventh. He was pretty much the only one I had to worry about.” Going into the meet, Bridges felt he would have to clear 14 feet or higher to come out a champion. He got his 14 and then took off after Woodason’s record. “I really wanted the state record, which didn’t happen,” Bridges said. “My personal best is a 14-9 1/4 which I did in the Jimmy Carnes Invitational at the University of Florida during in indoor meet. I missed at 14-10.” ➣ Please see AREA, 2B Northwest Whitfield senior Jake Bridges, shown while competing in the pole vault at last week’s Region 7-4A meet, vaulted 14 feet in the Class 4A state meet on Thursday in Jefferson to win the state title.

MATT HAMILTON The Daily Citizen PREP SOFTBALL: NORTHWEST WHITFIELD Outspoken Beard inks college grant Kimber Beard, right, looks through a scrapbook with former Northwest Whitfield softball coach Tammy Lambert on Thursday at the school during a signing party for Beard, who will play for Reinhardt College. BY MARTY KIRKLAND martykirkland@daltoncitizen.com It’s fairly obvious any position player bound for college softball is expected to have a solid bat and glove. But Reinhardt College might be getting an unexpected bonus from Northwest Whitfield’s Kimber Beard, who adds a strong voice to that mix. After spending her junior year as a varsity substitute for the Lady Bruins, when Beard stepped into a starter’s spot at first base this past season, she had no trouble filling a needed leadership role right away, too. MATT HAMILTON The Daily Citizen For the Lady Bruins, that was a good thing. “She’s just a natural leader,” said former Northwest softball coach Tammy Lambert, who recently handed the program’s reins over to assistant Shane Lambert after five seasons in charge. “She’s vocal and she was always up. If we were behind in a ballgame, she would be the one in the dugout trying to get everybody up and saying, ‘It’s not over.’ ... I’m really excited about this opportunity for her.” ➣ Please see BEARD, 2B PRO BASEBALL: ATLANTA BRAVES Thanks, guys: Jurrjens turns run support into victory BY STEVEN WINE Associated Press Writer MIAMI — Jair Jurrjens enjoyed the rare luxury of pitching with a lead. And it turns out he’s good at it. Saddled with poor run support in previous starts, Jurrjens benefited from two home runs by his Atlanta Braves teammates and pitched seven innings Thursday to beat the slumping Florida Marlins 4-2. “To have the lead was awesome,” Jurrjens said. W W W . “Every time my team scored, I was able to shut them out the next inning.” Casey Kotchman homered and hit an RBI double for the Braves, who scored four runs in Jurrjens’ previous four outings. David Ross hit a two-run homer to help Atlanta complete a twogame sweep.

Joining her for the signing were, from left, cousins Ellison Beard, Connor Beard, Kevin Beard and Clayton Beard, Reinhardt coach Glen Crawford, grandmother Frances Beard, sister Erica Beard, father Darryl Beard, mother Susan Beard, travel coach Dan Orton, grandmother Edna Ware and grandfather Dill Ware. Beard: Reach helped at first ➣ Continued from page 1B Beard, who signed an athletic scholarship with Reinhardt on Thursday, said she won’t shy away from being vocal when she joins the Lady Eagles. “If you’re not vocal, if you don’t talk to your players, they’re not going to know what to do, where to throw it or anything,” she said. “I’m going to be vocal no matter where I’m at. If I’m on a team where I don’t know one single girl, I’m going to be vocal. It doesn’t matter to me.” Beard was part of Northwest softball for four seasons, the final two as a varsity player, and also pitched and played in the outfield during her time with the Lady Bruins. But that all came after a key moment in Beard’s softball career. She was cut from North Whitfield Middle’s softball team as a seventh grader, but rather than give up, dedicated herself by attending offseason camps to work on her quickness and other skills. As a senior, Beard was a part of a Lady Bruins team that shook off a 2-11-1 start to finish second in Region 74A and earn the program’s third consecutive invitation to the Class 4A state tournament. And it wasn’t just by speaking up that Beard helped. By consistently putting the ball in play at the plate and using her 5-foot10-inch frame to hold down first base solidly, Beard played a key role in the turnaround, Lambert said. “I don’t know how many times this season she did the splits trying to get that runner out at first base,” Lambert said. “She’s tall and lanky, so that was real helpful to us. And if we had somebody throw it a little high, she’s got a great vertical jump and she was able to get it and either tag the runner or still get on the base. I don’t know how many times she did that for us.” Being part of the team’s surprising finish after the rocky beginning gave a nice ending to Beard’s career. Now she’ll try to make good memories in college. “I think what I have to do is motivate myself even more to practice more,” Beard said. “I have to continue with what I do, because practice makes perfect.” An NAIA school, Reinhardt — which is located in Waleska, less than an hour north of Atlanta — went 29-22 this season and saw its year end last weekend with a 1-2 run in the Southern States Athletic Conference tournament. Lady Eagles coach Glen Crawford, who took over in 2008, said Beard will have to make the transition that any student-athlete does to college by learning to balance sports, studies and a social life. But he likes Beard’s prospects for success in making that jump and believes her potential for leadership could also be an asset eventually. In a workout with the team, Crawford said, Beard fit right in. “A big thing for me is a person can have talent, but if they don’t mesh with the team, you can have a clash,” he said. “That can tear a team apart. But the girls all seemed to like her and get along with her.” Lambert said Beard became the 14th Northwest player in her five years as coach to go on to play in college. Lambert added that Beard may not be the last, with a couple other players possibly joining that group in the near future. Beard’s importance to the Lady Bruins was never missed by Lambert. She believes the Lady Eagles can expect a similar effort. “I think she knows what hard work is and what it takes,” Lambert said. “ ... She’s going to continue working hard and getting better as a ballplayer. She’ll be ready to step in whenever it is they need her.” Area: Bruins in second place ➣ Continued from page 1B Bridges said he hadn’t had a chance to call Woodason, who is attending the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, Md., and competing in the decathlon. But he will. Woodason has the Northwest school record with a vault of 15-0 that came in the 2008 Region 74A meet. His older brother, Ben, previously held the record of 14-6, set in 2003. Bridges said he plans to remain in the Jefferson area and get in some weekend fishing with his brother Nick, a Northwest assistant football coach. “We have some family friends down here,” said Bridges, who has signed with Kennesaw State. “I just hope the fish are biting.” Northwest boys track coach Jason Jackson said Bridges earned the down time. “Jake did a great job,” Jackson said. “He went from 13 to 14 and then tried 1410, but by that time he just didn’t have enough in him. “But he sure was gunning for that record. He was feeling good, so why not? There’s nothing wrong with that and I’m proud of him.” The state titles by Bridges and Meyer made three for the school this week. The Lady Bruins’ golf team captured the Class 4A crown on Monday at Dalton Golf and Country Club, shooting a 152 to win by 14 shots over runner-up Starr’s Mill. Senior Lauren Giambastiani fired a 2-over par 74 and missed winning an individual title by two shots. Also on Thursday, Northwest’s Dean Haynes finished eighth in the triple jump (44-11) and fellow senior Zac Baker was ninth in the shot put (46-5). Haynes, a North Carolina State football signee, was favored to win the meet on the strength of his season best jump of 47-1, tops of any competitor in the field. “He just didn’t have it today,” Jackson said. “He wasn’t on. It just wasn’t his day.” Jackson was stunned by Meyer’s championship run. “I didn’t expect it,” Jackson said. “He didn’t expect it. Nobody in the world expected it. It was a close race. He probably beat the No. 1-seeded guy by 2 meters.” McIntosh’s Vince Brown came in as the pre-meet favorite with a time of 4:27.93 and Meyer came in with a personal-best 4:32.57. When it counted the most, Meyer, a senior, knocked five seconds off his time with a Herculean effort of 4:27.21. Brown ran a 4:27.30. “That’s my best time ever,” said Meyer, who didn’t run track at Northwest until this year. “It has a lot to do with the way I run. I always stay around second and then kick near the end to pass guys at the last second. I’ve only lost one race this year.” Dalton High’s two athletes competing on Thursday also had off days. Josh Burgess threw 42-11 and finished 11th in the shot put and Dre Toliver went 19-11 in the long jump and finished 15th, Cats coach Scott Thompson said. “It wasn’t a good day for either one of them,” Thompson said. “But finishing in the top 15 in the state of Georgia isn’t bad.” Haynes will compete in the 400 and 200 qualifying heats today, while Dalton’s Ahmed Farag will do the same in the 300 hurdles.

Sanchez underwent surgery on the shoulder in June 2007 and returned last July. “He was in pain,” manager Fredi Gonzalez said. “You always think worse-case scenario, but I don’t know.” Sanchez was to undergo X-rays and an MRI exam. Florida extended a clubrecord streak of 20 consecutive games without a win by a starting pitcher. During that span the starters are 010, and the last starter to win was Sanchez against Atlanta on April 16. Lack of offense has been part of the problem. Emilio Bonifacio led off the first inning with a single, but the only other hits Jurrjens allowed were a pair of homers by Hanley Ramirez. “He hit two great pitches,” Jurrjens said. “I tip my hat to him and say, ‘You beat me this time.’ He’s one of the best.” Jurrjens (3-2) struck out four and walked two. His ERA climbed from 1.89 to 2.01. “He has been putting a bunch of zeros up,” Kotchman said. “Eventually we’ve got to get Ws out of guys who are sporting sub2.00 ERAs.” The Marlins lost their third consecutive game to finish a 1-3 homestand, during which they fell out of the lead in the NL East for the first time this season. They’re 4-13 since an 11-1 start. Florida begins a sixgame trip with Dan Uggla batting .190, Cameron Maybin at .202 and Cody Ross at .221. “You’ve got nine guys in the lineup,” Ramirez said. “You need them all. One or two guys can’t do it all. We need to get going.” For the Braves, the sweep came at the start of an eight-game trip. They were swept at home by Florida for the first time ever April 14-16. Atlanta took a 2-1 lead in the second when Kelly Johnson led off with a single and Ross hit his third homer. Kotchman hit his first homer in the third, and hit Sanchez’s final pitch for a two-out RBI double in the fifth. Rafael Soriano struck out Ramirez with two on to end the eighth inning, and Mike Gonzalez completed the four-hitter with a perfect ninth for his fifth save in six chances. “Just a real well-played game,” Cox said.

Cats: No. 1 seed ➣ Continued from page 1B Brotherton, who has guided the Cats to state tournament appearances in each of his first two seasons. “Each game it seems like it’s two or three different people. Sometimes they’re all hot and that’s when we can score a bunch of runs. “What I like about this team is that it has really come together. They set goals before the season and we’re coming closer to attaining them. Plus, we’ve got the old Dalton swagger back.” In 25 games this season, the Cats have scored 239 runs while the pitching staff has relinquished 88. Nine Dalton players with at least 26 at-bats are hitting better than .300, led by catcher Garren Palmer’s .467 average. The Cats have slugged 92 extra-base hits and five different players have at least 22 RBIs. Again, Palmer leads that category with 35 and third baseman Carter Crutchfield has 34. Will Kiker leads the team with 19 stolen bases while Stryker Brown and Toombs Norman each have 11. That’s a lot of pressure the Cats can apply to opposing pitchers and defenses. Dalton’s frontline pitchers — Alex Roberts, Colton Kinnamon, John Erwin and Nick Ray — are a combined 21-2 and their ERAs range from Roberts’ 1.63 to Kinnamon’s 3.50. Dalton can also call on the experience of reaching last year’s second round. “Being in that situation should help us a lot,” Erwin said. Winder-Barrow, which lost twice to Region 8-4A regular season champion Loganville by scores of 5-4 and 3-2, has the pitching to keep the Bulldoggs in most every game, coach Brian Smith said. Rockdale County beat Winder-Barrow 9-0 on April 8 as the Bulldoggs sur- rendered their season high for runs in a game. “Dustin Dunagan has 100-plus strikeouts with eight complete games,” Smith said. “Clint Spratlin has five complete games and Taylor Keinat has really come along and has a couple of complete-game shutouts. Josh Ellerbee has done a good job as our reliever. Consistency throughout the pitching staff has been key for us. We’ve been able to keep teams close and got some timely hits.” Dunagan and Keinat, a left-hander, will likely pitch for the Bulldogs in today’s doubleheader, while Brotherton is expected to use Kinnamon (8-2) and Roberts (5-0). Kinnamon started Game 1 last week against South Paulding. Roberts saved the opener and then fired a two-hit shutout with 11 strikeouts in Game 2. “I kind of liked that,” said Roberts, a sophomore who was used primarily as a reliever in 2008. “It was cool relieving and starting.” The Bulldoggs lost their best pitcher (Trace McDaniel) in the second week of the season to a broken rib, Smith said, and less than a month later saw their starting shortstop (Dylan Ivey) go down with a stress fracture. “We had to shuffle some guys around after that,” said Smith, who has been at Winder-Barrow for two seasons. “But we pulled together and I’m real proud of the guys for that.” In Ivey’s absence, Jeremy Donaldson moved from third base to shortstop and the switch hasn’t bothered him at all. He leads the team with eight home runs and set a school record with 13 doubles. A third game between Dalton and Winder-Barrow, if necessary, will be played Saturday at 2 p.m. The series winner will advance to face the winner of Starr’s Mill and Chamblee in the second round. PHOENIX — A person familiar with the decision says Arizona Diamondbacks manager Bob Melvin has been fired. The person told The Associated Press of the decision on condition of anonymity because it had yet to be announced. Melvin’s firing comes after a disappointing start by the Diamondbacks, who entered Thursday 8 1/2 games behind the Los Angeles Dodgers in the NL West. He had one year left on his contract. Arizona lost 4-3 in 10 innings at San Diego on Thursday afternoon. Manny ➣ Continued from page 1B Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the banned substance wasn’t announced. HCG is popular among steroid users because it can mitigate the side effects of ending a cycle of the drugs. Ramirez’s suspension was based not on a spring training urine test result but rather evidence obtained afterward, a second person familiar with the suspension said, speaking on condition of anonymity because those details were not released. MLB had concluded the spring test was positive, but the person said the players’ association would have challenged the result because of “testing issues.” Ranked 17th on the career home run list with 533, Ramirez became the most prominent baseball player to be penalized for drugs. His ban came three months after Alex Rodriguez admitted using steroids. Barry Bonds is under federal indictment and Roger Clemens is being investigated by a federal grand jury to determine whether he lied when he told Congress he never used steroids. In every case, players once believed to be locks for the Hall of Fame may now be locked out. “You can’t have arguably the greatest pitcher of our era, arguably the two greatest players of our era and now another very, very good player be under this cloud of suspicion and not feel like it has ruined it for everybody,” Atlanta’s Chipper Jones said.

PRO BASKETBALL: NBA PLAYOFFS Cavs clobber Hawks for a 2-0 series lead BY TOM WITHERS Associated Press Writer CLEVELAND — While the rest of the NBA exchanges elbows, flagrant fouls and menacing stares in the playoffs, the Cleveland Cavaliers are looking for a fight. So far, they can’t find one. LeBron James scored 27 points, ending the first and second quarters with last-second baskets, and Mo Williams added 15 points as the untested Cavs overpowered the Atlanta Hawks 105-85 on Thursday night to open a 2-0 lead in their Eastern Conference semifinal. Now a perfect 6-0 in the postseason, the Cavaliers tied a league record by winning their sixth consecutive playoff game by double digits. The only other team to do it was the 2004 Indiana Pacers. Maurice Evans scored 16 points and Mike Bibby had 11 for the Hawks, who were missing center Al Horford and forward Marvin Williams because of injuries. If that wasn’t bad enough, leading scorer Joe Johnson rolled his right ankle in the third quarter and did not return. X-rays were negative and the Hawks said Johnson is doubtful for Game 3 on Saturday in Atlanta. Just like Game 1, this one was easy for the Cavs. Too easy. In his second game since being named MVP, James dropped a long 3-pointer in the final second of the first half as the Cavaliers opened a 24-point lead that swelled to 36 in the third. James and the Cavaliers starters spent the entire fourth quarter lounging on the bench as Atlanta’s reserves outplayed the Cavs’ backups in 12 minutes of garbage time to make the score respectable. “Defense,” James said when asked how the Cavs dominated. “That has been us throughout the whole series and the whole playoffs. When we get D stops it’s easy to execute on offense. “We had great defense ... and then we got some great looks on the other end.” The best-of-seven series switches to Atlanta’s Philips Arena, where the Hawks went 31-10 during the regular season and beat Cleveland once. That was back on Dec. 13, when the Cavaliers were just finding out how good they were and the Hawks were at full strength. Nearly five months later, things have changed. The Cavs are 43-2 at home, 32-5 since the All-Star break, and playing their best ball. “We are a confident ballclub, we believe we can win on the road as well as at home,” James said. “It will be a hostile environ- NBA Playoffs Conference Semifinals (Best-of-7) Wednesday Boston 112, Orlando 94, series tied 1-1 ment, but we know we can handle that.” Cleveland has been the league’s most dominant team in the postseason. The Cavs blew through Detroit in four games and have barely broken a sweat against the overmatched Hawks, who haven’t figured out to slow James — or any of his teammates — and have struggled to score. Atlanta was hurting before the game got under way. Horford (sprained ankle) and Williams (sprained wrist) didn’t dress and Johnson was taken to Atlanta’s locker room in a wheelchair. It’s not known if any of the three will be available for the remainder of the series. It may not matter. On the 20th anniversary of Michael Jordan’s jumper — known around here as “The Shot” — over Craig Ehlo that beat the Cavaliers in the 1989 playoffs, James gave Cleveland fans a shot to remember. Taking an inbounds pass with 5.4 seconds left in the first half, James quickly dribbled into the frontcourt, pulled up on Hawks guard Mario West and drilled a 36footer to make it 59-35. The Cavs wasted no time putting the Hawks away in the third. James hit a 3pointer to push Cleveland’s lead to 30 and fed Zydrunas Ilgauskas for a basket that made it 83-47. Ex-Phillies skipper dies at 85 THE ASSOCIATED PRESS PHILADELPHIA — Former Phillies manager Danny Ozark, who led Philadelphia to three consecutive National League East titles but fell PRO short of the World Series BASEBALL each time, died Thursday. He was 85. Ozark, whose streak of three consecutive NL East titles in the late 1970s is unmatched in team history, died at his home in Vero Beach, Fla., team officials said. Ozark twice led the Phillies to more than 100 wins, tallying back-to-back 101-61 records in 1976 and 1977. The Phillies went 90-72 under him in 1978 for their third straight NL East title, but lost in the National League Championship series each time.

The Hawks lost, 105-85 and fell into a difficult 0-2 hole in the series. “Danny was a great human being,” said Phillies chairman Bill Giles. “He was first class and a fine gentleman who really cared deeply about his players and his friends.” Ozark was fired late in the 1979 season as the Phillies stood at 65-67. They went on to finish 84-78 and rebounded under Dallas Green in 1980 to win the World Series. “His patience with some of the Phillies’ young players in 1973-75, particularly with Mike Schmidt, really paid off as the Phillies got to the postseason in 1976, 1977, and 1978 and eventually won the World Series in 1980 after he left,” Giles said. Schmidt, the Hall of Fame third baseman who reached the majors under Ozark’s watch, said he was saddened by the death of the manager and friend who fostered his development early in his career. 3B L.A.

Crane in Players lead by 1 ASSOCIATED PRESS PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. — Ben Crane should have known what was coming when he rolled in a 30-foot birdie putt on the first hole of the day. He kept right on pouring them in until he had a 7-under 65 and a one-shot lead in The Players Championship. Crane made four birdie putts longer than 20 feet, kept his ball on land throughout another wild opening round Thursday on the TPC Sawgrass and wound up atop a leaderboard devoid of the biggest stars. Tiger Woods couldn’t make a putt outside 4 feet. Phil Mickelson ran off three straight birdies early in his round, then couldn’t keep the ball in play. Defending champion Sergio Garcia opened with a 71 and already was looking forward to going home to Spain. Crane couldn’t relate. He had a one-shot lead over John Mallinger, Alex Cejka and Richard S. Johnson, with a large group at 67 that included Retief Goosen, David Toms, Camilo Villegas and Scott Verplank, who had two eagles — one of them from 150 yards out on the 15th fairway, another with a putt that seemed about that long on the par-5 second. Woods opened his round with four straight birdie chances inside 12 feet and missed them all. He wound up with a 71, keeping alive his streak of never breaking 70 in the opening round at this elite event. Mickelson hit iron off the 18th tee but it worked out beautifully with an approach to 5 feet for birdie to salvage a 73. Michelob Open WILLIAMSBURG, Va. — Lorena Ochoa shot a 7-under 64 to take a one-shot lead over Lindsey Wright after the first round of the Michelob Ultra Open at Kingsmill. The top-ranked Ochoa had eight birdies and a bogey on the soggy 6,315-yard River Course at Kingsmill. Wright, a non-winner in five seasons, hadn’t played since finishing fourth in the Kraft Nabisco, the season’s first major in the first week in April. Hee-Won Han, Sarah Lee and Minea Blomqvist shot 66s, Seon Hwa Lee, Na Yeon Choi and Amy Yang had 67s, and 2007 champion Suzann Pettersen was among seven at 68. Italian Open TURIN, Italy — Northern Ireland’s Gareth Maybin shot a courserecord 7-under 64 to take a three-shot lead after the first round of the Italian Open. Christian Cevaer, Raphael Jacquelin, Richie Ramsay and Marcus Higley opened with 67s.

Nowitzki having ‘tough time’ THE ASSOCIATED PRESS DALLAS — Mavericks All-Star Dirk Nowitzki offered no explanation Thursday about the arrest of a woman at his home, saying only that he is having personal troubles now. When asked about his relationship with 37-year-old Cristal Taylor, who was arrested on a probation violation and theft of services warrants Wednesday, Nowitzki declined comment. “It’s pretty obvious that I’m going through a tough time in my personal life right now, but like I always have, I want to kind of keep my private life private,” he said. “I’m not at the stage where I can talk about it yet and feel comfortable talking about it.” The Mavericks trail Denver 2-0 in the Western Conference semifinals entering Game 3 on Saturday. “I’ll be ready,” said Nowitzki, who returned with his team from Denver on Wednesday afternoon. Dallas police said Taylor was taken into custody Wednesday morning at Nowitzki’s home. She remained in Dallas County Jail on Thursday on $20,000 bond. A jail official said there was no record of an attorney for Taylor. A 2006 indictment alleging theft of service in Jefferson County in southeast Texas listed eight aliases for Taylor, who was accused of not paying for dental services in the range of $1,500 to $20,000. The probation violation originated in St. Charles County, Mo., and stemmed from Taylor pleading guilty in 1999 to two counts of forgery and two counts of felony stealing, county prosecutor Jack Banas said.

In between, he ran up front at Talladega only to be swept up in a crash. “I like the short tracks more all the time,” Hornish Jr. said. “I wouldn’t have thought my first two top-10s HORNISH JR. would come on short tracks. We’ve had some real good runs and been real strong this year. I feel like I’m learning all the time. The team is growing and getting stronger. “Penske Racing as a whole is also getting stronger. We ran well [at Talladega] and had a top-five car and didn’t end up being around for the finish.” Hornish Jr.’s crew chief, Travis Geisler, a former Nationwide Series driver, said there are plenty of people who have pitched in to make the team better. “Sam put together an awesome race,” he said. “Everyone on this Mobil 1 team is really stepping it up, and we appreciate Dodge’s support and everything they’ve done for us. “This new engine package, everything put together has made a special program for us this season. I think we can see it with all the Penske cars.” Take a bow! Kyle Busch performs his customary bow after winning Saturday night’s race at Richmond International Raceway. Kyle Busch adds two to his career victories, while winning over fans I t’s rare for a 24-yearold race driver to have his name used in the same sentences with legends like Cale Yarborough and Richard Petty, but it’s happening with Kyle Busch. Then again, Busch is no ordinary 24-year-old, and he’s anything but an ordinary race driver. He swept both the Nationwide and Sprint Cup races at Richmond International Raceway last week, and his win on Saturday night made him just the second driver to win on his birthday. Cale Yarborough, an 83time winner in Cup, is the only other driver to win on his birthday, March 27. He did it twice, at Atlanta in 1983 and at North Wilkesboro in 1977. Busch’s wins ran his career total in all three of NASCAR’s elite series (Cup, Nationwide and trucks) to 50, which has folks wondering how close he can come to Richard Petty’s leagueleading 200 in Cup alone. Busch has said he’d like to win 200 races among the three divisions before he retires, and he says that’s possible. “It could [happen] if I can keep this pace up,” he said in his winner’s interview at Richmond on Saturday night. “But I know the older I get, I’ll start slowing down some way. Hopefully I can achieve that goal. It sure would be nice to get that. “I know it’s not 200 Cup victories like Richard Petty has; it will still be a phenomenal mark for me.” Busch already has eight wins this year, three apiece in Cup and Nationwide and two more in trucks, and that’s despite a monthlong slump heading into Richmond. But he said his poor results didn’t accurately reflect his and his team’s performance on the racetrack. “At Texas, we didn’t start the race that great,” he said. “I made a dumb call, got into it with the 34 car, cut my own tire, then had to fight for two laps NASCAR SPRINT CUP STANDINGS 1.

I finally got them back at the end of the race, too late to make anything out of it. “[At] Phoenix, we ran really well, probably could have won that race, but I sped off pit road [too fast]. That was just a killer. “Talladega is a crapshoot anyway. You never know what’s going to happen. I’m just glad I wasn’t the one in the guardrail.” Interestingly, as Busch continues to put on impressive driving performances, the boos he’s heard in the past seem to be slowly shifting to cheers, signaling that race fans, despite their ongoing allegiances elsewhere, appreciate a good performance when they see one. Fox broadcaster Darrell Waltrip, in his closing remarks after Saturday’s race, said that he felt fortunate to get to see Busch in his prime. Busch, who has indicated in the past that he relished the villain role he often found himself in, particularly after run-ins with fan favorite Dale Earnhardt Jr., said he also enjoys hearing the cheers. “I’m here to be myself, man,” he said. “I am who I am. Everybody is who they are, for whatever reason. ... “For me, it’s fun to come out here and I guess play the villain role sometimes and yet be liked other times. It’s always cool to have that aspect in this sport. “Even if I wasn’t in this sport, if I was doing something else, you’ve got to be happy with the way you’re living life and doing what you’re doing; otherwise it’s not worth living or not worth doing what you’re doing.” Gordon’s got ‘information’ on back pain One of the continuing stories in NASCAR this year involves Jeff Gordon’s nagging back problems, which he says have affected him at times in his race car. He said last week that he had another MRI, but he’s not ready to divulge just what he learned. “I’ve got some information that I’m just not ready to re- 5B lease yet or admit to,” he said. “I don’t believe it’s anything serious. It’s just something that’s causing the pain. There’s a little bit of arthritis, which is not totally unnatural, but there’s also some other things that come from … trauma or a crash or maybe just years of beating it up.” NASCAR Denny Hamlin, from nearby Chesterfield, Va., led a race-high 148 laps at Richmond, but finished 14th after having troubles on pit road. For Hamlin, home is where the heart(break) is D enny Hamlin’s home track, Richmond International Raceway, is becoming his personal school of hard knocks. Problems on pit road in his first-ever Cup race there robbed him of what looked like a sure win. Last year, he led 381 of 400 laps before a deflating tire ruined his night. On Saturday, he was again in position to win, having led a race-high 148 laps, before his bad luck visited him again. His team owner Joe Gibbs blamed errors on pit road for a 14th-place finish when a win seemed likely. “We had a horrible pit stop,” Gibbs said. “We dropped two lug nuts, I think, and it really cost us there, shuffling in the back. “Then I think on a restart, when everybody kind of accordioned up there, I think he hit the front pretty good. Car started running a little bit hot. I think we also got the left fender in it.” Hamlin’s crew chief, Mike Ford, said there’s not much of a bright side to the events of Saturday night. “We’ve been in contention to win this race every time we’ve been here,” he said. “You don’t take anything out of it other than frustration.” And it takes time to put a race like that in the past. “As a competitor, you can’t let it go,” he said. “You try and dig in and work a little harder next week. You can say you put it behind, but you never put it behind.” BY THE NUMBERS 3,253 The number of laps completed in Sprint Cup races this season by Kurt Busch, the most of any driver. 614 222 Laps led in Sprint Cup this season by Kyle Busch, tops among all drivers. Laps led by Toyota drivers in the Sprint Cup race at Richmond International Raceway on Saturday (Denny Hamlin, 148; Kyle Busch, 53; and Brian Vickers, 21).

Making a living as a driver is very, very hard. Year to year, one year’s good, one’s bad. You’re always fighting to keep your seat.” Still, there’s a part of him that would like to be driving the cars instead of preparing them. “There’s nothing like the thrill of driving,” he said. I’ll always have that desire to do that. But I’m happy crew-chiefing now.” He said that at times he gets as excited as he once did driving a car to its limits. “It’s not the same as when I was driving, but when I’m directing people, making changes to the race car and seeing the performance improve on the racetrack, I definitely get an adrenaline rush, especially when we’re leading or coming down to checkers,” he said. In many races in recent years, the No. 32 has been driven by moonlighting Sprint Cup drivers, which Owens says has helped him grow in his job. “Having Cup drivers is a tremendous help on performance and helping my ability,” he said. “They’re so confident when they try to explain what’s going on with the race car and what can be done to help it. It helps me learn the right direction to go with the changes.” That Cup driver input also helps him make better decisions during races. “They lead me in a better direction,” he said. “There’s a reason they race at the Cup level: Not only are they good drivers, but they can get their cars better than the other guys.” Naturally, Owens would like to get his car in Victory Lane this weekend at the track just 10 miles from his boyhood home. “I have lots of friends and family still there,” he said. Contributed photo Driver Brian Vickers (left) talks about the No. 32 Toyota with crew chief Trent Owens. “My wife’s family is still there. There’s an extra incentive, plus the history of Darlington makes it that much more special.” Last year he came close to scoring a hometown win. “We had a great car with Kyle Busch driving,” he said. “We led a lot of laps and got in a mid-race accident.” He said that fast car was no fluke. “I put a lot of extra effort in for Darlington,” he said. “I make sure everything is right. I really want to win it bad.” This year, he’ll have another Cup driver, Brian Vickers, behind the wheel. Vickers said he’s confident Owens can give him a winning car. “He’s a great crew chief,” Vickers said. “I like him a lot.” 6B THE DAILY CITIZEN Friday, May 8, 2009 CROSSWORD BRIDGE HOROSCOPE Test your play Happy Birthday: You LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. have to remain in the game 22): Talking matters through even if things aren’t running and changing any preconsmoothly.

Win the heart lead with the ace, draw trumps and play a low d i a m o n d t o w a r d dummy’s J-4! This gives you about a 75 p e r c e n t chance for the contract, which is much better than the 50 percent chance you’d have if you started the diamonds by leading one from dummy. The low diamond toward the jack makes the contract whenever North was dealt the queen, which happens 50 percent of the time. He has no choice but to take the queen, and after you later force out the ace of diamonds by playing the jack, you will be able to discard a club from dummy on the king of diamonds. Your only losers in that case would be a heart and two diamonds. Even if South has the queen of diamonds and wins dummy’s jack with it, you are still in contention. You have plenty of time later on to lead a diamond toward your K-7, and if South has the ace, you make the contract that way. The suggested method of play fails only when South has the queen and North the ace — about a one-in-four chance — but in that case any other method of play is also virtually certain to fail. 2. Here you’ve got a sure thing. Cash the A-K of hearts, cross to the ace of clubs, then play the queen of hearts and discard a spade. If North turns up with either four or five hearts, play another one and let him cash his heart trick (or tricks), discarding one or two diamonds from your hand. North must then hand you trick No. 9, whether he returns a spade, a diamond or a club. If North started with only one or two hearts — unlikely, but possible — you still have him on the hook. After cashing dummy’s queen of hearts, you next lead a diamond to the nine (or queen, if South plays the ten or jack). North wins but is forced to give you your ninth trick whether he returns a spade, a diamond or a club. Tomorrow: Fancy footwork. CRYPTOQUIP Obama touts $17B ‘lot of money’ budget cuts BY TOM RAUM AND ANDREW TAYLOR Associated Press Writers WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama sent Congress a detailed budget Thursday boasting of cutting or killing 121 federal programs in a belt-tightening he likened to that of most Americans in difficult times. But the trims amounted to a tiny fraction of the new spending he wants, and some have already been nixed by allies on Capitol Hill. Obama said his cuts would amount to $17 billion — in a budget totaling well over $3 trillion for the fiscal year that begins in October. He’s estimating the government’s red ink will still be about $1.2 trillion, down only slightly from this year’s all-time record. Republicans scoffed that Obama’s cuts were not nearly enough. “They appear to be a diversionary tactic — an effort to change the subject away from the unprecedented debt this budget heaps on future generations,” said House Republican Leader John Boehner of Ohio. On the other hand, some of Obama’s proposed trims are recycled from George W. Bush’s hit list and won’t be popular with some Democrats. For instance, he proposed ending a $400 million-a-year program that pays states and counties for keeping illegal immigrants in their jails — a Bush idea rejected previously by the Democratic-controlled Congress. The president defended proposed cuts that he portrayed as a mix of some “more painful than others.” “In Washington, I guess that’s considered trivial. Outside of Washington, that’s still considered a lot of money,” he said. “But these savings, large and small, add up.” If there was a theme to Obama’s cuts and spending initiatives, it was to continue to provide generous increases to domestic programs that had been squeezed during the eight years of the Bush administration while reviving oft-rejected Bush-era propos- %&$&/*& 0,"&* (- +(!" .$ +('#&) The $3.4 trillion budget in fiscal 2010 calls for the Department of Commerce to receive the largest percent increase from 2009.

But the Obama administration says the reimbursements also can be used for bonuses, consultants and buying vehicles. Sen.

Obama proposed: ■ Ending $26 billion in oil President ends well-liked program for border security WASHINGTON (AP) — Members of Congress quickly denounced an Obama administration plan to end federal payments to states and communities for jailing illegal immigrants. President Barack Obama asked Congress in his budget Thursday to end the State Alien Criminal Assistance Program. Instead, the $400 million it received for the 2009 fiscal year could be used for border security and immigration enforcement, the administration said. The SCAAP program reimburses states and counties BUDGET, in billions $13.8 112.9 53.9 12.0 43.7 42.7 25.7 13.4 533.8 13.3 46.7 73.3 26.4 78.4 24.0 our immigration policies, especially during this time of economic uncertainty,” Feinstein said. State and local officials vehemently protested several attempts by former President George W. Bush to end the program. Congress regularly funded the program. Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano was among state officials — when she was Arizona’s governor — who petitioned Bush to continue paying the jailing costs. Arizona state corrections received $12.8 million in reimbursements last year.

Both the House and Senate last week approved a $3.4 trillion budget blueprint reflecting most of Obama’s priorities and clearing the way for new spending on health care, energy and education. More details are due from the White House next week. On the spending side, KFC offers rain checks on coupon Oprah promoted LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — KFC has learned not to underestimate the power of Oprah Winfrey. A free grilled-chicken meal promotion touted by the talk show host has caused such a frenzy that some stores ran out and the Louisville-based chicken chain is asking customers to take a rain check for the new product. KFC President Roger Eaton said Thursday the company will mail coupons to customers in stages so people can enjoy their meal in a more relaxed setting. It will throw in a free soft drink to sweeten the new deal. Downloadable coupons for a free meal were available on Oprah.com for 24 hours beginning Tuesday after Winfrey announced the promotion on her show. Each coupon promised two pieces of grilled chicken, two individual side orders and a biscuit. Obama’s new details emphasized substantial increases for his domestic priorities. He proposed: ■ Plowing $2 billion more into merit-based teacher pay to help failing schools turn around. He would spend $370 million on a successor to the Reading First literacy program, a key element of Bush’s No Child Left Behind law. ■ Spending an additional $584 million for pandemic flu efforts, on top of the $1.5 billion in emergency money for 2009 that he asked Congress for in the wake of the swine flu outbreak. ■ Increasing child nutrition programs by $1 billion, partly to pay for a 20 percent increase in the number of food inspectors. ■ Setting up a $1 billion program to develop or rehabilitate housing for the poor. Obama proposed more money for the Labor Department to hire about 1,000 new employees, including 670 new investigators and other staffers to enforce safety, health, minimum wage, overtime and other laws.

He jumps on top of his car, and the boos get even louder. If Kyle Busch had a thin skin, the 24-year-old would probably spend much of his down time hiding in his hauler, sniffling as tears well up in his eyes. That’s not the case. In Scott fact, Busch Adamson seems to enjoy wearing the proverbial black hat. If he were involved in rasslin’, he’d be the ultimate heel — the guy everyone loves to hate. Instead he’s the guy NASCAR fans love to hate. And he really doesn’t seem to care one way or another. “I don’t pay attention to a lot of what goes on during the weekend,” Busch said. “I don’t pay a lot of attention to what goes on with other people, with other racers, with fans and that kind of stuff. People always think that I might be a jerk or I might be not so social or personable because I’m trying to keep in the zone and stay focused on what I’m doing and what’s coming up next. I’m always thinking ahead and trying to keep a step ahead.” He’s right — a lot of people do think he’s a jerk. And there’s no doubt he can be petulant — a 24-year-old going on 12 if he doesn’t get his way and when things don’t go as planned on the racetrack. AP PHOTO Kyle Busch has 50 wins on three NASCAR circuits — and little concern for what spectators think. Thing is, most things do go his way. This guy has won a staggering 50 races in NASCAR’s three top touring series, and this season alone he leads the sanctioning body with eight checkered flags — three in Sprint Cup, three in Nationwide and two in the Camping World truck circuit. Darrell Waltrip recently wrote in an article for NASCAR.com that Busch is already worthy of being mentioned in the same breath as some of the sport’s all-time greats. “Well, I’m all right when people say anything, really,” Busch said. “Nothing seems to get to me a whole lot. But it’s cool about what Darrell wrote. I haven’t seen it, I haven’t read it. So I don’t know what the fine print is. But those are some great drivers that he has in there. Richard Petty, David Pearson, Cale Yarborough, and all those guys, you know. “It’s been a dream for me just to get to the Sprint Cup series. Now to be racing here has been awesome. And to be as successful as I’ve been, I owe a lot of that to all the people that have gotten me here, and to all the people that have worked on my cars and stuff.” If he stays healthy and continues to possess the passion that currently consumes him, Busch will certainly go down as one of the best this sport has ever seen. And although fans of the late Dale Earnhardt hate the comparison — and Busch doesn’t really care for it, either — the two are cut from the same mold. I remember a time when “The Intimidator” had plenty of enemies on the track and many, many more in the grandstands. He was thought to be dangerous and arrogant. Then the wins started piling up, and NASCAR Nation embraced him. Earnhardt had a certain charm that Busch doesn’t exude, so winning the hearts of fans might prove difficult. Still, he is a winner. And if he keeps winning, I’m guessing over time he’ll win over some of the people who currently jeer him when he takes his post-race curtain call. Scott Adamson writes for the Anderson IndependentMail in Anderson, S.C. Distributed by Scripps Howard News Service. Jeff Gordon won 15 times at Darlington, S.C., between 1995 and 2002 and a win in this weekend’s Southern 500 would be a record-setting sixth in the event. AP PHOTO Darlington has been a good place for Gordon BY PETE IACOBELLI Associated Press Writer DARLINGTON, S.C. — Jeff Gordon can make history this weekend at Darlington Raceway. A victory in the re-christened Southern 500 this Saturday night would be Gordon’s 83rd career win, matching NASCAR great Cale Yarborough for fifth all-time list. It would also be Gordon’s record-setting sixth Southern 500, surpassing Yarborough’s mark on his home track that’s celebrating its 60th season of racing this week. “It’s cool to be mentioned in the same sentence as guys like Cale,” Gordon said. “It’s something I’ll look back on at the end of my career. But we arrive at the race track each weekend focused on trying to win, not catching or passing people on a list.” Gordon certainly knows about winning at Darlington. He took the checkered flag six times in 15 races at “The Lady In Black” between 1995 and 2002, a stretch that encompassed his four Sprint Cup titles. The track’s vastly different from when Gordon first rode it as a rising rookie in 1993. The start-finish line was switched in the mid-1990s and the track’s tire-chewing surface has been repaved twice, the latest before last spring’s race when Gordon and others at a Goodyear Tire test session flirted with speeds of 200 mph — unheard of at a narrow track where any pass usually puts a drivers’ heart in his throat. Lights were installed in 2004. And when the track had its two races cut to one on Mother’s Day weekend for the 2005 season and dropped its Southern 500 name, things didn’t look great for NASCAR’s oldest superspeedway. Four sellouts later, Darlington’s still going strong, as is the 37-year-old Gordon, NASCAR’s points leader entering this week. Darlington’s champions are a “who’s who” of NASCAR greats, another mountaintop Gordon could ascend with a victory. He’s currently third all-time in track wins behind David Person (10) and the late Dale Earnhardt (9). Don’t expect any fence-flying wrecks this weekend. There’s only one fast lane around the track, so the jostling and side-by-side racing seen at other speedways doesn’t work at Darlington. “You have to be very patient and you have to work your lapped traffic,” said Gordon’s crew chief, Steve Letarte. That’s how Gordon picked up his last Darlington victory in 2007, Letarte urging him to stay out during a caution 23 laps from the end that kept him in front despite an overheating engine.

THE DAILY CITIZEN Friday, May 8, 2009 Heat wave PET BUY Kits make artists out of your pets 1C Prospects better for pets with cancer The family pug needed some encouragement to get into the act. We’re now looking for gallery space for a pair of Pugcassos, otherwise known as our two pugs, Willy and Bruce, who recently completed three paintings using the Pup-Casso kit. Pup-Casso’s no-mess and non-toxic paint kit gave me a keepsake of my pugs’ artistic skills that I can forever hang on my walls, and also provided bonding time for my husband and me to share with our pugs as we all four worked together to create the perfect painting. The kit was extremely easy to use and came with a paint set of five colors, three art papers, three paw protectors (plastic sheets to sit over the top of the painting for the dog to walk across), a picture frame, and a small present for your dog (a yellow Frisbee with the Pup-Casso logo on it). New therapies offer more hope for pets with cancer. It’s never safe to leave a dog in a car, not even on a day that’s “just a little warm,” not even with the windows down. Keep spring’s warming trend from endangering your pet By Dr. Marty Becker and Gina Spadafori Universal Press Syndicate These kits offer almost everything you need to get your pet painting. To begin, paint colors are dotted and swirled around the paper by the dog owner, and then covered over by a clear plastic sheet, which is taped down to keep it from sliding. Treats are an important coaxing tool in the process because your dog is then guided back and forth across the plastic sheet over the paper to swirl and step into the paint, thus creating his own unique creation. Two of our paintings were done in “Picasso” style with random swirls of color. But my husband, wanting to unleash his never-before-discovered “talent,” decided to paint a picture of a dog on the grass with a sun on the top and had the dogs step over the top of it, with the final result looking much like a cheery preschool art project. The kit’s ease of use was exceptional. The directions were simple and easy to follow, there was very little cleanup needed, and we now have three keepsake paintings to always remember our time together as a family (our snorting pugs included, or course). The only downside was the lack of a paintbrush, which made writing our signatures extremely difficult, as fingers to sign were too thick to be legible. In the end, we made due with the end of a pen as a makeshift paintbrush to memorialize all four of our names on our work of art. The paint kit also comes in a Cat-Casso variety, for all of the catty artists hoping to gain fame as well. Pup-Casso and Cat-Casso ($20 for either) are available from pet-supply retailers or from Art-Casso.com. — Mikkel Becker Shannon O ur dogs love spring and summer — longer days, less inclement weather — but they always seem a little disappointed when they realize they’re not going to be getting as many rides in the car. That’s because in the winter there’s not much risk to letting a well-mannered dog wait in the car during a quick pop inside the bank, drugstore or any number of local businesses that make up a morning’s errand run. But when the days get warmer, it’s no longer acceptable to leave a dog in the car, even for a few minutes, even with the windows down. That’s because the heat can build up quickly, even on a day that’s just pleasantly warm, putting any pet in the car at grave risk for heatstroke. Car rides and errands aren’t the only risks to pets in warmer weather. Take care of your pets by watching out for these fair-weather hazards: • Heat risks. Cats have enough sense to nap on warm afternoons, but dogs do not. If you let them, they’ll go where you do, even if it’s too hot. Dogs are not good at keeping themselves cool, and they rely on us to keep them out of trouble. Limit exercise to the coolest part of the day, no matter how happy your dog is to participate when it’s warm. Even in the coolest part of the day, watch for signs of trouble: Glassy eyes and frantic panting indicate a dog who needs immediate veterinary help. Remember that older, obese or short-nosed dogs are less heat-tolerant and that all dogs need constant access to shade and an endless supply of cool, clean water. • Gardening risks. Protect your pets from poisonous plants, troublesome garden materials or yard chemicals. Check with the ASPCA’s Animal Poison Control Center (www.aspca.org/apcc) to be sure your plants are pet-safe, and put any ones that aren’t safe on the other side of a fence from your animals. “Car rides and errands aren’t the only risks to pets in warmer weather.” Be sure to use any pesticides or fertilizers according to label directions, and let lawn chemicals dry before allowing your pet access to the yard. Snail and rodent bait can kill pets, so do not use it in areas where animals have access. • Other outdoor problems. If you hike through open fields or wooded areas, be sure to check your dog afterward for foxtails and burrs.

They don’t work. — Dr. Marty Becker and Gina Spadafori Instead, choose a direct method: Either use a grasses, a foxtail, will burrow deep into the ears or flesh of an animal, and it will need to be removed by a veterinarian if it gets in a place your pet can’t reach or is left to fester. Depending on where it ends up, it can even be fatal. Warmer weather also means mosquitoes, and that means heartworms. Heartworms are transmitted by mosquitoes, which pick up the microscopic heartworm larvae called microfilaria when they draw blood from an infected animal. They share the parasites when they bite another animal. Once in a new host, the larvae make their way to the heart, where they grow to be 9 to 14 inches long, blocking the flow of blood and causing severe damage and possibly death. Most infested pets are brought to the veterinarian after their owners notice them coughing at night, coughing after exercise, or experiencing a general decline in their physical condition. By the time the symptoms are noticed, however, a great deal of damage has usually been done, not only to the heart, but also to other organs such as the kidneys, which rely on a steady flow of blood to operate. Because of the risk and expense of treating a heartworm infestation, preventive care remains an essential part of a pet’s well-being. Monthly heartworm prevention has been shown to be safe and effective for most pets. Don’t ignore this essential protection: Talk to your veterinarian about heartworm preventives for dogs and cats.

These include two new therapies that target canine mast cell tumors at the molecular level (from Pfizer and AB Science USA) and immunotherapy for melanoma (Merial). “Rather than use chemicals to kill the cancer or radiation to fry it, we can use our knowledge of cancer to outsmart it,” notes cancer specialist Dr. Greg Ogilvie, director of the Angel Care Cancer Center at California Veterinary Specialties in Carlsbad, Calif. • This year marks the 125th anniversary of the University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine in Philadelphia. Among the school’s most well-known patients: the Kentucky Derby winner Barbaro, who ultimately lost his battle for life after shattering a leg in the Preakness Stakes, the second leg of racing’s storied Triple Crown. The work to save Barbaro at UPenn has led to better safety on racetracks and better care for all horses. • Kitten season is no myth, and proof lies in the writhing bundles of kittens in animal shelters this time of year. The feline reproductive season runs from Dec. 21 (winter solstice) to Sept. 22 (autumnal equinox). Like Mother Nature’s light-switch, the amount of daylight turns the cat’s reproductive cycles on and off. That means in December, unspayed females are stimulated to come into heat, and usually they will be by the middle of January. A 60-day pregnancy means that cats will give birth around March 15 or so. The first wave of kitty litters will come to shelters shortly thereafter. — Dr. Marty Becker and Mikkel Becker Shannon About Pet Connection Pet Connection is produced by a team of pet-care experts headed by “Good Morning America” veternarian Dr. Marty Becker and awardwinning journalist Gina Spadafori.

PET TIP Yes, cats can be hurt falling from windows Cats are equipped with the amazing ability to right themselves in midair if they fall while hunting, rotating their bodies from the head back like a coil to align themselves for a perfect four-paw landing. But what works for a supple small animal falling from a tree branch doesn’t cut it in the modern world, where a cat’s more likely to fall from a window than a tree. Cats can be badly hurt or even killed falling from the window of a two-story home, or from the balcony of a third-story apartment. Many cat lovers assume their pets would be smart enough to be careful when up high enough for injuries, but it’s just not in an animal’s ability to make that kind of judgment call. Cats are comfortable in high places, and they cannot understand the difference in risk between a onestory fall and a six-story fall. Protect them with secure screens and closed windows. — Gina Spadafori 2C THE DAILY CITIZEN Friday, May 8, 2009 ANNOUNCEMENTS 104 Lost Missing female cat. from Dug Gap area, Oakmont Dr. Answers to “Jello”, calico with white face. 706-270-5967 FINANCIAL 254 Money to Lend Low Rates, Affordable Payments.
