his pregnant wife, daughter and
son with a bush ax in Columbus, he
could face the death penalty in
Muscogee County where he now
sits in jail, district Attorney Julia

A chase on I-75 Wednesday night
that began north of Dalton and ended
above the Georgia-Tennessee line has
resulted in warrants being issued for
the driver.
John Patterson has been charged
with two counts of aggravated assault
by the Dalton Police Department
after he allegedly shot a woman with
an AK-47 assault rifle. The Dalton
Police Department did not release
Patterson’s address or age. The
female victim — whose name is
redacted from a Dalton Police report
— said the trouble began in
Chattanooga early in the day when
Patterson pulled the rifle on her on
Fourth Avenue, and later on I-24 as
she was driving.
The woman said Patterson threatened to injure her if she did not provide

Sgt. Derrick Hobbs speaks with kindergarten students at Northwest Elementary School
Wednesday. The Army chaplain is home on leave until June 3.

Home on leave from Iraq
BY MARK MILLICAN
[email protected]
In a typical day, Sgt. Derrick
Hobbs might look fellow soldiers
in the eye and try to answer their
spiritual questions before they
venture into the neighborhoods of
eastern Baghdad. But on
Wednesday in Murray County,
the assistant chaplain faced hundreds of cheering schoolchildren,
teachers, administrators and
guests.
This time, his response was
muted.
“I didn’t expect any of this,”
Hobbs said as Northwest
Elementary children rose to their
feet during his leave from Iraq.
“I’m kind of speechless — I don’t
know what to say.”
The 1996 graduate of Murray
County High has been “adopted”
by Tollis Bond’s kindergarten
class. When she learned Hobbs
would be in town briefly for his
brother Steven’s wedding, an
assembly at the school’s outdoor
amphitheater was quickly organized.
“The class has prayed for him
during our moment of silence
every morning,” Bond said.

Regular flu shots don’t
protect against H1N1 virus
BY LEE BOWMAN
Scripps Howard News
While long-ago swine flu
shots or exposures may offer
some immune advantage
against the new H1N1 flu
strain, scientists say a regular
flu shot in the past few years
provides no protection.
A study published by the
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention used blood samples
from 79 children and 280 adults
who had been vaccinated
against seasonal flu during one
of past two winters.
Pre-vaccine samples found
relatively high levels of an antibody that’s thought to represent
immune resistance to the new
flu strain among older adults —
people in their 60s and older —
but not among samples from
younger people.
There was no difference to
the immune system response
among younger people to the
new flu, after they’d gotten one
of the seasonal shots. However,
there were slightly higher levels
of the antibody in some of the
older patients who had gotten a
standard flu jab.
CDC officials stressed that
the lab findings represent just
one more clue in the mystery of
why the new H1N1 flu has
infected mostly younger people. Sixty five percent of more
than 5,700 confirmed or suspected cases are among people
between the ages of 5 and 24
years old. Only 1 percent of
new flu cases were found in
patients 65 and older.
“Normally, the elderly are
more at risk from seasonal flu
than younger people, but thus
far the new strain seems to
mostly have spared seniors,”
said Dr. Anne Schuchat,
deputy director for science
and public health programs
and a leading flu expert at the
CDC.
Boy hopes he sets snails-on-face record
SALT LAKE CITY (AP)
— Never mind the ick factor, a
Utah boy is trying to get into
the record books by covering
his face with live snails.
Eleven-year-old
Fin
Keheler, from Sandy, allowed
43 of the slimy mollusks to be
put on his face. He wants the
Guinness World Records to
verify his effort.
The Guinness Web site says
the record set in 2007 for snails
on the face for 10 seconds is
eight. The boy says he has
since learned the record was
36.
Fin made three attempts on
Saturday. Sitting back in a
reclining chair, snails gathered
from neighbors’ gardens were
carefully placed on his face.
Those that remained for at
least 10 seconds were counted.
His family is sending witness statements, video and
media coverage to Guinness
this week.

The April jobless rate was up 3.5 percentage points from 5.8 percent at this same time
last year. Georgia’s unemployment rate
remained above the national rate of 8.9 percent for the 18th consecutive month.
Currently there are 446,560 unemployed
Georgians are looking for work, an increase
of 60 percent from April of 2008. Of that
number, 167,981 (37.6 percent) are receiving unemployment insurance benefits.
The number of payroll jobs in April
decreased 197,100, or 4.8 percent, from
April of 2008. The over-the-year losses
came in manufacturing, professional and
business services, including temporary
employment agencies, along with trade,
transportation and warehousing, and the
construction industry.
Job gainers totaling 14,200 were recorded
in health care and educational services.

Safe Kids
receives grant
SUBMITTED
BY
A Senior Tradition
SAFE KIDS GEORGIA
UPS provided Safe Kids Dalton with a
$50,000 funding opportunity that will continue to prevent injury for the children of
Dalton. This grant will help Safe Kids
Dalton continue to provide educational
events to residents.
“It is truly an honor for Safe Kids Georgia
to infuse new funds in a distressed community in order to educate parents and children
on injury prevention,” said Beverly Losman,
director of Safe Kids. “It is also great that
our life-saving work has been recognized by
UPS, a company that prides itself on safety.”
In the past, funding opportunities similar
to the recent UPS grant have allowed Safe
Kids Dalton to hold a car seat check safety
event at the Kmart on Walnut Avenue. At this
event, certified passenger seat technicians
inspected 81 seats and 38 seats were
removed.
Rita Gavin has been a Safe Kids coordinator for five years and helped the organization give car seats to those who could not
afford them.
“This contribution will aid our organization in future endeavors,” said Gavin. “In
addition to UPS’ support, we rely on agencies such as American Red Cross, Dalton
Police Department, the Dalton and Whitfield
fire departments, Hamilton Medical Center
and the First Baptist Church Disaster Team.”

VIEWS
Lights out on
the car lots
Capitalism is said to be governed by cycles of
creative destruction, and last week the cycle rolled
over nearly 2,000 GM and Chrysler car dealers.
Chrysler informed 789 of its 3,181 dealers that it
was ending their franchise agreements and GM did
so to 1,100 of its 6,000 dealers. Even though the
GM dealers were informed through an ominous use
of the passive voice — “You have been identified
as an underperforming dealer” — the company
gave them a better break than Chrysler did to its
dealers. They have until October 2010 to wind
down their businesses; the Chrysler dealers basically have until June 9 to unload 44,000 unsold cars
and close their doors.
And there’s more to come. GM plans to further
reduce its 6,000 dealerships to fewer than 4,000 by
the end of 2010 and it plans to shed about 500
Saturn, Hummer and Saab dealers.
Whatever these closings do for the individual
companies, the effect on the auto industry as a
whole is likely to be muted. Neither company is the
big player it once was. GM had over half the U.S.
car market in the ‘60s; only 22 percent last year.
And the dealerships being shuttered represented
only 7 percent of its sales.
But the GM and Chrysler closures are likely to
hurt their communities, especially smaller and
medium-size towns, where the dealerships are usually the most visible locally owned retail business
and supporters of everything from the local Little
League through sponsorships to the local newspaper and broadcast stations through ads. The auto
dealers’ trade organization estimates that this convulsion will cost 100,000 jobs.
This isn’t the first cycle of destruction, creative
or otherwise, to hit the auto industry. Dozens of
makers failed to survive the Depression and others
failed to survive the postwar years. Once, every
city had “automobile rows” adjacent to the downtowns, but those are long gone in favor of much
larger, less constricted dealerships ever farther out
in the suburbs.
This contraction is necessary, perhaps inevitable,
but that doesn’t mean we have to like this loss of a
piece of Americana.
“We spent a fortune to
elect Barack Obama — $60.7
million to be exact — and
we’re proud of it,” boasted
Andy Stern, president of the
Service
Employees
International Union, to the
Las Vegas Sun this week. The
behemoth labor organization’s leadership is getting its
money’s worth.
The two-million-member
union, which represents both
government and private service employees, proudly
claimed that its workers
“knocked on 1.87 million
doors, made 4.4 million
phone calls, and sent more
than 2.5 million pieces of mail
in support of Obama.” It dispatched SEIU leaders to seven
states in the final weekend
before the election to get out
the vote for Obama and other
Democrats.
Through a series of local
chapter takeovers and bully
campaigns to destroy the reputation of executives who
refuse to submit to their will,
Stern and his scandal-plagued
lieutenants have consolidated
low-skill service workers to
create a 21st century labor
empire. The ubiquitous Stern
now enjoys a prominent seat
at the table of every major
policy discussion at the White
House, including economic
recovery and health care radicalization.
Obama champions the
SEIU’s top legislative priorities: expansive government
health care (paid for with
regressive sin taxes) and the
“Employee Free Choice Act”
to do away with private-ballot
union elections in the workplace. He has SEIU-blessed
bureaucrats installed in every
corner of his administration to
carry out the agenda.
The SEIU scored not one
but two Cabinet appointees:
Health and Human Services
Secretary Kathleen Sebelius
and Labor Secretary Hilda
Solis. The SEIU pitched in
with maximum donations
to
Solis’ first
congressional campaign and
lent
her
nearly 300
canvassers
and ground
Michelle troops. “I
wouldn’t
Malkin
be
here,
were it not
for
my
friends in the labor movement,” she gushed. Indeed,
over four terms in Congress,
Solis has pocketed more than
$900,000 in union campaign
contributions.
Former SEIU chief lobbyist Patrick Gaspard served as
the Obama campaign’s
national political director and
transition deputy director of
personnel. During the 2004
election cycle, he led the
George Soros-funded group
America Coming Together
(ACT) as national field director. Under Gaspard’s tenure at
ACT, the get-out-the-vote
group employed convicted
felons as canvassers and committed campaign finance violations that led to a $775,000
fine by the Federal Election
Commission. Gaspard was
appointed White House political director shortly after
Election Day 2008.
SEIU Secretary-Treasurer
Anna Burger was appointed
to the president’s Economic
Recovery Advisory Board to
provide advice on “boosting
the sagging U.S. economy”
(translation: imposing new
employment regulations on
companies and expanding
union membership rolls).
Within two weeks of moving into the White House,
Obama signed a series of
executive orders championed
by union bosses. The new
rules authorized sweeping
powers for the labor secretary
that essentially blackball
nonunion contractors targeted
by labor organizers and blacklist nonunion employees in
the private sector from working on taxpayer-funded projects.
Another measure immediately adopted by Obama
requires that when a government service contract runs out
and there’s a new contract to
perform the same services at
the same location, the new
contractor must retain the old
workers.
The payoffs keep coming.
Last week Obama slashed the
Labor Department’s funding
to investigate union corruption — a welcome move for
Stern, who has seen three of
his handpicked deputies
resign in 2008-2009 over
financial scandals.
California officials also
reported last week that the
Obama White House gave the
SEIU an unprecedented role
in negotiations over federal
stimulus funds. According to
the Los Angeles Times, the
union lobbied the feds to
withhold nearly $7 billion in
stimulus
money
from
California unless it revoked a
wage cut for unionized health
care workers — which had
already been approved by
Democratic lawmakers as part
of a budget deal forged in
February.
SEIU’s enforcers have set
aside $10 million to un-elect
any of its political beneficiaries who abandon their pledges
to do the union’s legislative
bidding. The campaign
money was raised by slapping
an extra $6-per-member fee
on top of regular dues payments — and funneled
straight to the union’s political
action committee.

“Our liberty depends on the freedom of the

being lost.”
— Thomas Jefferson
(1743-1826)
WORDS OF WISDOM
“Bible verse: “[Divisions in the Church] I appeal
to you, brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ,
that all of you agree with one another so that there
may be no divisions among you and that you may be
perfectly united in mind and thought.”

Thought for today: “It is often said that men are
ruled by their imaginations; but it would be truer to say
they are governed by the weakness of their imaginations.”
Walter Bagehot
English editor and economist 1826-1877
This is the column I always wanted to
write about the commencement speech
that radio talk-show yakker Neal Boortz
always wanted to give. You remember
Boortz, don’t you? He is the guy who
loves to jump on “pitiful government
schools.” Evidently, he has always wanted to rant and rave at a bunch of college
graduates and faculty, and just as evidently, no college or university gives a
roaring rip what he thinks about anything. I am sure he wants everyone to
assume he is “too hot to handle.” In fact,
he is a cartoon character, and cartoon
characters don’t make good commencement speakers. Not even Dilbert.
Since he can’t get invited to speak
even to a school of fish, a well-meaning
charity provided him a platform from
which to pontificate. I received a note
from a good friend touting the speech. I
had to tell my friend that I wouldn’t promote Neal Boortz if he was to referee a
pig fight even for a good cause. They
will have to find another flack.
As you might imagine, there is a little
background to my high dudgeon.
Several years ago, I heard him berating
“pitiful government schools” because
they don’t teach our children basic economics. He continues to beat on this
theme even today. The first time I heard
that comment, my oldest grandson,
Zack, then a junior at Chapel Hill High
School in Douglas County, happened to
mention that he was taking advanced
economics and began to talk to me about
supply-and-demand
and economic theories
and stuff I hadn’t heard
since my days in
BellSouth’s corporate
offices.
Clearly, we had a
disconnect between
what Boortz thought
was happening in public schools and what
Dick
kids like Zack were
Yarbrough actually
learning.
Being somewhat naïve
about how show business works, I thought it would be fun to
get “the Talkmaster” out of hiding from
behind his microphone, cutting off people who have the temerity to disagree
with him and let him debate Zack on
economics. To make it easy for Boortz, I
suggested the debate could be held anytime, anywhere, under any conditions,
and I would pay for the whole thing. We
would sell tickets, and the money would
go to charity. What a deal.
Alas, I failed in my quest. Over several years, I wrote a number of columns
imploring him to accept the challenge.
No response. When I finally corralled
him at a social function, he sniffed that
he was not interested. Although I wasn’t
surprised, I remain at a loss to see what
he had to lose. If public schools are as
pitiful as he says they are and are turning
out economic idiots as he says they are,
this would be a slam-dunk for him. Just
to make it as fair as I could, I would have
even counseled Zack not to bring up the
Laffer Curve, in case Boortz thought it
was something that measures the wit of
standup comics. I certainly wasn’t out to
embarrass the guy. You don’t do that to
the Talkmaster.
The debate is moot now. As many of
you know, Zack died suddenly last fall.
He was a junior at Georgia Tech, majoring in civil engineering and doing
exceedingly well there in spite of his
“pitiful government school” education.
At his memorial service, a stranger came
up to me and said he wished I could have
convinced Boortz to debate Zack,
because Zack would have whipped his
— well, something you don’t normally
say in a Baptist church. And he would
have, too.
I looked up Neal Boortz’s Web page
recently, and on his site he makes a big
deal out of being sure everybody knows
he doesn’t read his mail. God-types seldom do. So there is a good chance he
will never know about this column. Still,
I have my fingers crossed. Maybe I will
get lucky, and one of his minions or loyal
listeners will get word to him that I think
he is a self-promoting blowhard who
doesn’t have the guts to back up his
blather. About that, there is no debate.

think the reservists are sometimes not recognized enough for their part.”
Dalton’s Robert Rittenhouse said he
volunteered for the U.S. Navy during
World War II and was in Okinawa, Japan
when the war ended.
“There was a lot of excitement and celebration when we heard the news,” he
said.
He said holidays such as Memorial Day
are special to all veterans.
Chatsworth’s Bobby Dixon said he
served in three military branches.
“I enlisted in the Army and got thrown
out when they found out I was underage,”
Dixon said. “I came home to Dalton and
joined the Navy Reserve. They sent me to
Great Lakes (Naval Station in Illinois) for
training. I came back and put in for active
duty. They didn’t need a radio operator, so
I went down the street and joined the Air
Force in 1953 and stayed until 1974.”
Dixon said it’s important to take time
to honor veterans who gave their lives in
service to their country.
The ceremony also included the reading of patriotic poems and a performance
of “God Bless America.” The event concluded with participants placing small
American flags outside the senior center.

Curry was questioned for

hired a attorney Curry
refused to be questioned further. There are also questions
about whether Curry had

according to the LedgerEnquirer. A timeline on the
Web site (www.ledgerenquirer.com) gives his
whereabouts on Aug. 29,
1985, the day of the murder.
Most of the entries verify
Curry’s presence in work situations — he was a maintenance supervisor at a mental

who saw him during the day.
A co-worker “with whom
Curry had a three-week
extramarital affair,” according to the newspaper, saw
him four times during the

Other co-workers saw him at
5 p.m. before he left work. It
was around 5:30 p.m. when
Curry ran into a neighbor’s
home shouting about someone killing his wife and kids.
Curry will be arraigned in

Gas costs more, but don’t
expect a repeat of 2008
BY JOHN PORRETTO
AP Energy Writer
HOUSTON — As tens of
millions tank up and hit the
road for Memorial Day
weekend, gas prices are rising fast enough to revive
painful memories of the $4a-gallon summer of 2008.
Rest easy: The economic
slack created by the recession all but guarantees prices
won’t spike the way they did
last year, analysts say.
On Thursday, a gallon of
unleaded averaged $2.36.
That’s much cheaper than
the $3.80 it cost this time last
year, but prices are still up
about 30 cents a gallon this
month, enough to make drivers flinch.
“Uh-oh,” cab driver Jay
Biyani said while filling up
this week in Manhattan.
“That’s the first thing I say
when I pull into this gas station each day. Right now it’s
not that bad, but it’s a lot
worse than two weeks ago.”
Even so, the auto club
AAA estimates 32.4 million
people, or about one in 10
Americans, will travel over
the holiday, most of them
driving. That’s a slight 1.5
percent increase from 2008.
Vacations make a lot
more sense for many families than they did last year.
Airfares, hotels and tourist
attractions are all cheaper
this year because of the
relentless recession.
Gas is no exception. For
much of this year, there has
been a glut of gasoline in
storage around the country,
keeping prices low. And
demand has been light
because of the poor economy.
But gasoline has jumped
in May. Oil refineries, trying
to make money just like any
other business, are taking in
less oil because of the glut in
gas, and those cutbacks are
showing up at the pump.

State Patrol predicts
increase in fatalities
ATLANTA (AP) — The
State Patrol is predicting a 29
percent increase in fatal traffic
accidents in Georgia during
the Memorial Day holiday
weekend from 6 p.m. Friday
to midnight Monday.
Troopers estimate 18 people will die and another 875
will be injured in 2,725 crash-
At the same time, prices
are starting to rise for seasonal reasons. Americans
drive more in summer, and
federal and state laws require
different, more expensive
gasoline blends this time of
year.
The trading markets are at

the price of oil had fallen so
far — below $34 a barrel,
compared with a peak of
$147 last July — that large
investors couldn’t resist buying in.

feeds on itself, and government data suggests speculative trades are on the rise,
meaning people are buying

during the same holiday period.
The American Automobile

weekend.
it.
“There’s no lack of gasoline right now or the lack of
ability to produce it, and
anyone who says speculators
are not playing a role in this
run is delusional,” said Tom
Kloza, publisher and chief
oil analyst at the Oil Price
Information Service.
The same thing happened
last year, to a much greater
extent. Because when the
Wall Street crisis struck and
the economy tanked, oil
prices collapsed. Gas fell to
$1.61 by the end of the year.
Last May, U.S. motorists
were spending about $1.4
billion a day on gasoline,
Kloza says. These days, it’s
only about $874 million.

Diabetes drug lowers amputation risk
D i s c ov er You r D a n c i n g F ee t
LONDON (AP) — Doctors
who gave diabetics a drug originally intended to lower
patients’ cholesterol found it
reduced their risk of so-called
minor amputation by 36 percent, a new analysis of research
says.
Researchers in Australia,
Finland and New Zealand studied almost 10,000 patients aged
50 to 75 with type 2 diabetes,
the kind linked to obesity.
About half of the patients were
given fenofibrate, a drug available generically and sold as
Antara, Fenoglide, Lipofen and
others. The other half got fake
pills. After five years, 115
patients had at least one lower
limb amputation because of
diabetes.
Diabetes can damage nerves
and blood vessels. In severe
cases, this leads to amputation.
About one diabetes patient in
10 loses part of a leg.
The study, first published in
2005, aimed to see if fenofibrate prevented heart disease. It
didn’t.
But in this new analysis,
experts found patients on
fenofibrate had a 36 percent
lower risk of a first amputation
than those on placebo.
ple are traveling for
Memorial Day, IHS Global
Insight, which studies travel
habits for AAA, expects
Americans to take 20 million
fewer trips from April to
September than they did last
year.
Even the kind of cataclysmic event that sends gas
prices into a spike, like a hurricane in the oil-rich Gulf of
Mexico, probably won’t
push gas past $4 a gallon this
summer, analysts say.
Last year, Hurricanes
Gustav and Ike battered the
Gulf, and gas shot to $5 a
gallon in some parts of the
Southeast. But refineries
were churning out gas at a
much higher rate then.
This year, even if a hurricane knocked out refineries
along the northern Texas
coast, which account for
about 20 percent of U.S. gas
production, refineries in
Louisiana and elsewhere
could pick up the slack.
So how high
will gas go?
Darin Newsom, senior
energy analyst at DTN in
Omaha, Neb., said he
expects the average price for
regular unleaded to push
$2.80 a gallon this summer
— higher than many other
forecasts. Even if a devastating hurricane strikes, he
thinks prices will stay below
$3.10 a gallon.
“Not everyone is running
their refineries full blast,”
said Bill Day, a spokesman
for Valero Energy Corp.,
North America’s largest
refiner. “That will certainly
help cushion the blow if
there’s a hurricane this year.”
Still, even with average
pump prices nearly a buck
and half lower than they
were a year ago, the recent
increasing has some drivers
fearing a repeat of last summer and tucking away
money just in case.

she was accused of neglecting his health was found

Wednesday accuses 38-yearold Keele Maynor of falsely
claiming to have cancer to
get sick leave pay from the
city and donations of sick
leave from co-workers. The
federal charge involves interstate routing of a payroll
deposit in February 2006.
Maynor also faces state
charges and is free on
$50,000 bond in the state
case. Her initial court
appearance on the federal
charge was not immediately
set.
The charges stem from
what Maynor has described
as a “charade” that included
accepting cash, support services and purchases of groceries and meals by co-workers and donations from members of New Salem Baptist
Church.
Maynor acknowledged in
a Dec. 12 e-mail to her boss
that she has been cancer-free
since a scare in 2000. She
resigned her job as a
$24,000-a-year senior assis-
tant in the city’s land development office.
“I started fabricating this
story about cancer in 2003
and it has snowballed and
finally came to a head,” she
wrote.
She was arrested on state
charges of theft and forgery
in February in Union City,
Ga., where she had been living since her ruse unraveled.
Maynor sat alone in the
spectator section of a
Hamilton County courtroom
Thursday morning before a
judge set a June 10 hearing
on motions filed by her attorney, public defender Ardena
Garth. Maynor declined to
speak to reporters.
The motions seek city
personnel records and investigators’ notes.
Chattanooga Detective
Toby Hewitt has said the
sick leave totaled $79,400
and cancer support groups
and other victims of the
fraud are out more than
$100,000.
Maynor has two prior
felony convictions involving
food stamps and care for her
dependent children.
Maynor previously wrote
blogs referring to herself as
a struggling single mother
with cancer. She also forged
signatures on a counterfeit
“communication log of
Hospice of Chattanooga” on
Dec. 3, 2008, the indictment
shows.

Winery Officially Opens
Mom charged with killing
son on the playground
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M.
(AP) — A mother playing
with her children at a park
spotted a little black sneaker
sticking out of the sand
underneath the playground
equipment. Figuring a
youngster had lost his shoe,
she bent down to pick it up.
It was strangely heavy.
She had made a ghastly
discovery: a dead little boy,
buried in the sand.
For nearly a week, who
the toddler was, how he died,
and who put him there were
a chilling mystery until
Thursday, when a drawing of
the youngster circulated by
police led to the arrest of a
young mother on murder
charges.

Patti Blagojevich to join show husband couldn’t
SKOKIE, Ill. (AP) —
Ousted Illinois Gov. Rod
Blagojevich wasn’t allowed
to appear in a network TV
reality show in Costa Rica,
so his wife will appear
instead.
A federal judge barred
Blagojevich, who faces federal corruption charges, from
being on the NBC show “I’m
a Celebrity ... Get Me Out of
Here” because it would send
him out of the country. But
his wife Patti accepted an
offer from the network to
and went to Los Angeles earlier this week to film a promotional shoot, said Glenn
Selig, the Blagojevichs’ publicist.
“I didn’t seek this out.
And if it wasn’t for our
financial situation I probably
wouldn’t consider it. You do
what you have to do when
you’re, you know, a mother
of two,” Blagojevich told
The Associated Press in a
Thursday telephone interview. Both she and her husband are unemployed.
The couple appeared on
NBC’s “Today” show
Thursday to announce the
move. Patti Blagojevich
said she hopes her appearance on the reality series
7A
will help show that she isn’t
the profanity-spewing person portrayed on federal
wiretaps.
“What people say in their
own homes, when they
assume that no one’s listening, in a moment of anger is
not necessarily representative of who and what they
are,” Blagojevich told the
AP.

Toribio, as he slept on the
climbing gym — a crime so
cold-blooded that neighbors
struggled to comprehend it,
and even veteran officers
became choked up.
“For a mother to kill her
own child is unfathomable.
Most people can’t even
imagine how you could even
think about doing something
like that,” said Cmdr.
Michael Geier. “We’ll never
really understand why that
happened, but we now
understand the dynamics of
what led up to that.”
Toribio was homeless and
sleeping in the park, having
been kicked out of her mother’s home and a friend’s
apartment in the days before
her son’s death because she
was ignoring the boy and
withholding affection, investigators said.

Obama denounces
‘fear-mongering’
WASHINGTON —
President Barack Obama
fought Thursday to retake
command of the emotional
debate over closing
Guantanamo, denouncing
“fear-mongering” by political opponents and insisting
that maximum-security prisons in the U.S. can safely
house dangerous terror suspects transferred from Cuba.
In a unique bit of
Washington theater, Obama
made his case moments
before former Vice President
Dick Cheney delivered his
own address defending the
Bush administration’s creation of the prison camp as
vigorously as the new president denounced it. Obama,
appearing at the National
Archives with its immensely
symbolic backdrop of the
nation’s founding documents, said shutting down
Guantanamo would “enlist
our values” to make America
safer. Speaking a day after
an overwhelming congressional rebuke to his pledge
to close the prison, he forcefully declared the camp a
hindrance — not a help —
to preventing future terrorist
attacks. He contends that the
prison, which has held hundreds of detainees for years
without charges or trials,
motivates U.S. enemies
overseas.
50 Gitmo detainees
to be moved
WASHINGTON —
Forty-eight terror suspects
currently held at
Guantanamo Bay are waiting
to be released to other
nations, the Obama administration said Thursday. The
detainees are among 50
detainees whose cases
President Barack Obama
said Thursday have already
been reviewed. The
detainees would be the first
to be released to other
nations under the Obama
administration’s effort to
empty the Cuba-based prison
without bringing all its
inmates to the United States.
Two other detainees have
been released since January,
to Britain and France, officials said.
AIG chief Liddy
to step down
NEW YORK —
American International
Group Inc. on Thursday said
its chairman and chief executive plans to step down
when a search for replacements is complete. The company also said its board
agreed with a recommendation from Edward M. Liddy,
who took over the insurer in
September, to separate the
chairman and CEO roles.
AIG will start a search for
permanent leadership after
the company’s annual shareholder meeting June 30. At
that meeting, investors will
vote on a slate of six new
independent directors.
Shareholders will also vote
on a company proposal for a
reverse stock split of the
company’s outstanding common stock at a ratio of 1 for
20, according to a regulatory
filing.
Plotters done in by
FBI infiltration
NEWBURGH, N.Y. —
The four men were ex-convicts who envisioned themselves as holy warriors, ambitious enough to concoct a plot
to blow up synagogues and
military planes, authorities
said. But they were amateurs
every step of the way. They
had trouble finding guns and
bought cameras at Wal-Mart
to photograph their targets.
One was a convicted purse
snatcher, another smoked
marijuana the day the plot
was to be carried out.
Muslims fueled by hatred of
America and Jews, they spent
months scouting targets and
securing what they thought
was a surface-to-air missile
system and powerful explosives — all under the watch
of an FBI informant. The four
were arrested late Wednesday
outside a synagogue in the
Bronx, following a long line
of homegrown, headline-making terror plots since Sept. 11
that never came close to reality because the FBI inserted
itself in the earliest stages.

Japan, San Marino top life-expectancy list
GENEVA (AP) — A girl
born in Japan today will likely live to celebrate her 86th
birthday, the longest life
expectancy anywhere in the
world. Men fare best in the
tiny European nation of San
Marino, where the average
boy will live to 81, the World
Health Organization said
Thursday.
The West African country
of Sierra Leone has the
shortest life expectancy for
men — just 39 — while
Afghanistan fares badly for
both sexes, with men and
women living on average to
41 and 42 years respectively.
The figures in WHO’s
annual
World
Health
Statistics report are from
2007, the latest year available.
They show that some
countries have made remarkable progress in increasing
life expectancy since 1990
— partly by ending wars,
partly through successful
health initiatives.
Eritrea increased its average life expectancy by 33
years to 61 for men, and by
12 years to 65 for women. In
Liberia the figure for men
jumped 29 years to 54, and

Associated Press Writers
WASHINGTON
—
Stress over grades. Financial
worries. Trouble sleeping.
Feeling hopeless.
So much for those carefree college days.
The vast majority of college students are feeling
stressed these days, and significant numbers are at risk
of depression, according to
an Associated Press-mtvU
poll
Eighty-five percent of the
students reported feeling
stress in their daily lives in
recent months, with worries
about grades, school work,
money and relationships the
big culprits.
At the same time, 42 percent said they had felt down,
depressed or hopeless several days during the past two
weeks, and 13 percent
showed signs of being at risk
for at least mild depression,
based on the students’
answers to a series of questions that medical practitioners use to diagnose depressive illness.
These students complained of trouble sleeping,
having little energy or feeling down or hopeless — and
most hadn’t gotten professional help. Eleven percent
had had thoughts that they’d
be better off dead or about
hurting themselves.
That’s not just a case of
the blues to be shrugged off
by taking a break with
Facebook or going for a
workout.
Kristin Potts, who graduated from Penn State last
week with a 4.0 in chemistry
and will go on for a master’s,
says she’s seen warning
signs among fellow classmates.
“I had a couple friends
who didn’t come out of their
rooms very much,” she said.
“I tried my hardest not to be
like that, but I definitely saw
it.”
At the University of
Maryland in College Park,
students were sobered by
two suicides within two
weeks this past semester.
“It was pretty scary,” says
Aimee Mayer, a junior
studying psychology. She
says there’s lots of information and help available for
students with mental disorders, but “there’s still a stigma associated with mental
health issues and so a lot of
people don’t want to go to
those services. They feel like
they’re less cool or something like that if they go. It’s
like a sign of vulnerability.”
Mental health disorders
like depression typically
begin relatively early in life,
doctors say, and college is a
natural time for symptoms to
emerge.
The AP-mtvU poll surveyed students at 40 U.S.
colleges, exploring the students’ state of mind and the
pressures they face, including strains from the tough
economy. It found substantial numbers of students with
symptoms of depression,
many of them failing to
receive professional help.
Among the poll results:
■ Nine percent of students were at risk of moderate to severe depression.
That’s in line with a recent
medical study that found 7
percent of young people had
depression.
■ Almost a quarter of
those with a parent who had
lost a job during the school
year showed signs of at least
mild depression, more than
twice the percentage of those
who hadn’t had a parent lose
a job. More than twice as
many students whose parents
had lost a job said they had
seriously considered ending
their own life, 13 percent to 5
percent.
■ Among those who
reported serious symptoms
of moderate depression or
worse, just over a quarter had
ever been diagnosed with a
mental health condition.
■ More than half of those
who reported having seriously considered suicide at some
point in the previous year
had not received any treatment or counseling.

Men’s life expectancy in the

working conditions he calls
“intolerable.”
He says the deteriorating
WWII-era morgue is a perfect breeding ground for flies
and their offspring. It’s in
one of the hottest counties in
the state and lacks air conditioning.
Supervisor Judy Case
says she’s aware of the problems and pledges something
will be done. She says she
did not want to approve
finances before the state’s
special election Tuesday to
see what money Fresno has
available.
In the United States, the
life expectancy for men rose
to 76 from 72 years, and for
women to 81 from 79 years.
In Russia, the average life
expectancy for men dropped
to 60 from 64 years since the
time of the Soviet Union. For
women the drop was less
marked, to 73 from 74 years.
The figures are only one
of over 100 health indicators
that WHO tracks in its 193
member states.
Others include mother
and child mortality; prevalence of diseases such as
HIV, malaria and tuberculosis; access to doctors and
medical facilities; and health
expenditure per person.
Some of these indicators
form part of the U.N.’s socalled
’Millennium
Development Goals’ that are
to be achieved by 2015.
WHO said the trend for
deaths in young children was
promising overall, with a
global drop of 27 percent
since 1990.
Some 9 million children
under 5 years old died in
2007, compared to 12.5 million in 1990.
“The decline in the death
toll of children under five
illustrates what can be
achieved,” said WHO’s
director of statistics, Ties
Boerma.
The increased use of
insecticide-treated mosquito nets for malaria, oral
rehydration therapy for
diarrhea, better access to
vaccines and improved
water and sanitation in
developing countries are
proving particularly effective, he said.

‘Peter Pan’ to fly at Dawnville
BY RACHEL BROWN
[email protected]
om
Dawnville Elementary
School students are going to
Neverland this weekend, and
they want a big audience to
join them.
A group of about 30 students, mostly in fourth and
fifth grade, will stage a production of “Peter Pan”
tonight and Saturday night in
the school gymnasium.
They’ve been practicing
for several weeks and are
equipped with new lighting
and stage equipment through
a Grassroots Arts Program
grant and funding from
Whitfield County Schools.
This is the second year
Dawnville’s has staged a
play. Last year’s performance was “The Wizard of
Oz.”
Fourth-grader
Caleb
Reed, who plays “Peter Pan,”
said he wanted to be in the
play because he’s still relatively new to the community
and hoped to meet people.
“This is the first big production I’ve acted in,” he
said. “I just think it would be
fun for people to watch a
play where a boy takes these
people from a house to
Neverland.”
“Peter Pan” is the story of
a boy who lives in
Neverland, a place where
children encounter pirates,
Indians, fairies and mermaids and never have to
grow up.
Audience participation
will be a major part of the
production as they participate in raising Tinkerbell
from the dead and ending the
escapades of the evil Captain
Hook.
“In this play, the audience
actually becomes a cast
member as they help determine the outcome of the
story,” said director and
Alyssa Smith, left, who plays Wendy, helps McKayla
McHan, playing Tinkerbell, with her wings before
rehearsal.
Chuy Rodriguez, left, and Christian Center, playing Michael and John, play out
a sword fight during a rehearsal for “Peter Pan” at Dawnville Elementary
Thursday morning.
fourth-grade teacher Michael
Hall.
Several special effects are
in store. Hall said creators
will use a special ramp,
make-up techniques and
lighting effects to create the
appearance of children flying. A student dressed in
black will play Peter Pan’s
elusive shadow, and another
student will “swim” through
the water on a skateboard
while playing the ticking
crocodile.
“Peter Pan” is being produced this year in honor of
Randy Mashburn, a wellknown sports coach in the
Dawnville community who
died May 5. His daughter,
fifth-grader Rana Mashburn,
is student director.
Alyssa Smith plays one of
two “Wendy” characters in
the show. She said the most
difficult thing she’ll have to
do is remember to say her
lines at the correct times.
The fourth-grader also plays
sports and had to give up
softball games to be able to
practice for “Peter Pan,” she
said.
Hall has been involved in
various performing arts venues for more than 39 years in
the United States and
Canada. Several adults have
helped out including drama
coaches Mark Helton and
Jinny Marie Jagoditsch and
several other assistants and
volunteers.

PREP FOOTBALL: DALTON SPRING SCRIMMAGE
Southeast’s
Cranes have
plan in place
S
omeone with the last name “Crane”
is now in charge of one out of
every six sports teams at Southeast
High. The Lady Raiders’ softball and
girls basketball teams didn’t have to look
far for replacements this time around as
Elizabeth Crane, the wife of Raiders football coach David Crane, stepped into
both roles. She was named girls basketball coach this week after taking the softball job earlier in the spring.
So while the Cranes
seem to be a good fit
for Southeast athletics,
how do they make a
two-coach marriage —
their family also
includes 6-year-old
Bailey and 4-year-old
Matthew — work for
them?
Well for one thing,
they’ve had practice.
Marty
Married for seven years
Kirkland and a couple for the
past 10 — they grew
up in the same church,
too — both were coaches at the same
time in South Carolina before they came
to Dalton last year.
Plus, they know how to prioritize,
Elizabeth said, and that makes other people willing to work with them when they
need the support. Or a babysitter.
“(David) knows how supportive I am
of him,” she said. “And he is of me. You
just have to be really organized and make
sure you don’t lose sight of what matters
most to us, which is family and God. So
you have to put those things first.”
Elizabeth’s balancing act will also
include preparing the softball and basketball teams throughout a busy summer as
she tries to put her plans into place, but
she noted that one advantage she has is
that many of the same girls who take the
diamond for the Lady Raiders will also
take the court.
Another plus for Crane as she preps
for her first seasons in charge at
Southeast? Those girls who are making
the biggest contributions to Southeast
athletics right now are pretty good — and
they seem to have room and time to be
even better.
■ A week after one group of local
golfers came up short in their bid to
break through to the next round of qualifying for next month’s U.S. Open — it
returns to New York’s Bethpage Black,
the brutally tough site that became the
first public course to host the open in
2002, when Tiger Woods won —
Dalton’s Michael Clark and David Noll
Jr. were denied, too.
Playing in a local qualifier at the River
Club in Suwanee earlier this week on a
par-70, 7,079-yard layout, both claimed
top 20 results but were out of the running
for the eight spots who moved on to the
next phase.
Clark, who shot a course-record 58
last year at Dalton Golf and Country
Club, tied with four others for 12th place
with a 2-over 72 in Suwanee. Noll, a
four-time and defending Georgia State
Golf Association Player of the Year, as
well as the winner of the 2008 Tommy
Barnes Award, was one shot back in a
group of eight who shared 17th.
The U.S. Open has a reputation as a
grueling major where pars are lucky finds
and the winner is often the one who finds
a way to grind through to Sunday, and
it’s qualifying seems to hold a pretty
tough standard, too. Just take a look at
the frustration of some of the area’s best
golf talent in the push to make it to the
tourney, and that’s abundantly clear.
■ While Matt Hughes was one of
those from the area who missed out on
the Open opportunity a week earlier, he
and his University of Alabama teammates
didn’t miss out on a trip to the NCAA
Championship.
Hughes, a senior, tied for 19th among
individuals to claim his best finish this
season as the Crimson Tide won the
Northeast Regional Championship in
Galloway Township, N.J.
They’ll begin their quest for a bigger
title next Tuesday at Inverness Club in
Toledo, Ohio. It’s the team’s third consecutive trip to the national championship
tourney, and there’s no doubt Hughes
would love to end his career with an
NCAA crown.
The ending wasn’t quite as happy for
Seth Brandon, who spent part of his
youth in Dalton but played most of his
high school golf at Chattanooga’s Baylor
School. He and the Indiana Hoosiers
failed to advance from their Southeast

Crossing the line
Beck and Moore play both ways
INSIDE SPORTS
BY LARRY FLEMING
[email protected]
With the calendar plodding through May,
Dalton High running back Tre Beck looked
like he was in midseason form Thursday during the Catamounts’ spring football game at
Harmon Field. And fullback Shaquon Moore
didn’t look bad either.
But their play wasn’t limited to offense.
The two offensive standouts got in some
action with the defense as well.
In fact, Beck scored on a 14-yard run and
a 65-yard fumble return on the game’s final
play as the White defeated the Red, 27-7.
“I felt good out there,” Beck said. “The
jBulldogs win, but Jackets fall again 2B

offensive line was really blocking well and
that helped me a lot.”
Beck’s offensive touchdown tied the game
at 7 after Red quarterback Will Kiker, a junior, rambled 70 yards on the first play of the
scrimmage for a score.
In the fourth quarter, Beck switched to
defense and played cornerback, making his
presence known there, too.
Quarterback Stryker Brown, who will be a
senior in the fall, connected with junior
receiver Charlie Wilson on a 7-yard gain, but
Wilson was stripped of the ball going down.
Beck was there to scoop it up and made a
nice run, avoiding several tacklers along the
way, to the end zone as time ran out.
“I haven’t played defense since the eighth
grade when I played outside linebacker,” said
Brown, who is up to 160 pounds from his

PREP BASEBALL: CHRISTIAN HERITAGE
Hayes enjoys a second
chance at second base
BY MARTY KIRKLAND
[email protected]
It took Derrick Hayes a while to get
comfortable with baseball again, but
he’s been a big part of Christian
Heritage’s run to the state semifinals.
Like a lot of boys growing up, for the
longest time the baseball diamond was as
right a place as any for Derrick Hayes.
But when, as a seventh grader, he was cut
during tryouts at North Whitfield Middle, a
frustrated Hayes felt like baseball wasn’t
right for him anymore.
And so he gave it up.
“Something happened and I just didn’t
feel like playing anymore,” he said. “I just
got burnt out.”

Rockies return favor to Braves
BY CHARLES ODUM
ATLANTA — Aaron Cook kept throwing
sinkers, and his infielders kept making plays.
Cook pitched a four-hitter and Todd
Helton’s grand slam ended Colorado’s power
slump as the Rockies beat the Atlanta Braves
9-0 on Thursday night.
Cook (3-1) retired the final 16 batters for
his second career shutout. He had 20 groundouts and did not allow a baserunner to
advance past second.
W W W
.
“I didn’t need to show up today,” said
Rockies catcher Chris Iannetta of his easy
task of calling pitches for Cook. “The choice
was between a sinker and a sinker. ... It was
the best sinker I’ve seen this year.”
Jeff Francoeur singled with two outs in
the fourth and then Cook retired everyone
else. The only other hits that Cook gave up
were a single to Chipper Jones in the first and

Francoeur and Jordan
Schafer in the second.
“When he’s got that
sinker with that late movement, it’s every bit as good
as it gets in this game,”
said Braves catcher Brian
McCann. “He baited us
and made us swing at
tough pitches.”
Colorado second baseman Clint Barmes had 10
assists.
“I was cheering for the
guys making the plays,”
said Cook of his infielders.
“I was throwing strikes,
keeping the ball down. ... I
always take a lot of pride
in our defense.”
The Rockies had gone
four games — and 46
innings — with a homer
before Helton’s shot in the
fourth inning. Before that
mini-drought, the Rockies
had not had as many as
two straight games without
a homer this season.
The Rockies posted
only their second shutout
of the season. The only
other one was a 3-0 victory over Arizona in the second game of the season.
Helton had three hits
and drove in five runs as
the Rockies spoiled Kris
Medlen’s major league
debut.
Medlen (0-1) gave up
five runs in three innings.
He left after facing four
batters in the fourth.
The Rockies recovered
after
losing
games
Wednesday and Thursday
by the combined score of
20-5.
“We definitely needed
this one, no doubt about
that, especially after the
way we got beat last
night,” said Helton of the
Braves’ 12-4 win on
Wednesday night.
Helton, who opened the
series with his 2000th
career hit Tuesday night,
helped give the Rockies a
split of the four games
with another memorable
game. He enjoyed his 10th
career game with five
RBIs while hitting his fifth
career grand slam, his first
since Sept. 10, 2006
against Washington.
The 23-year-old Medlen
earned his promotion by
posting a 5-0 record with a
1.19 in eight games with
Triple-A Gwinnett near
Atlanta. His major league
debut included two wild
pitches, a hit batter, a balk
and five walks — all while
recording only nine outs.
“I can’t explain it but
whatever it was, it’s unacceptable,” Medlen said. “I
felt fine. I can’t explain
what happened. ... The
wheels fell off.”
After Medlen’s second
wild pitch far outside the
reach of McCann in the
fourth inning, manager
Bobby Cox and assistant
trainer Jim Lovell hurried
out to the mound. Cox said
he was concerned that a
drop in the velocity of
Medlen’s pitches was a
sign the right-hander was
injured.
Medlen remained in the
game, but he walked Clint
Barmes on four pitches to
load the bases with no
outs. Braves pitching
coach Roger McDowell
visited Medlen, who then
hit Cook’s left elbow with
a pitch, forcing in a run.
Cox returned to the
mound to pull Medlen.
Reliever James Parr
almost stranded the three
runners he inherited. After
recording outs on popups
by Dexter Fowler and Troy
Tulowitzki, Parr gave up
the grand slam to Helton
on a 3-2 fastball to give
Colorado a 6-0 lead.
playing weight of 145 during
the 2008 season. “I felt pretty comfortable out there.
Coach (Matt) Land is teaching me how to play in the
secondary and I really expect
to play some back there this
season.”
Brown was impressed
with Beck’s two-way performance.
“Tre ran the ball well,”
Brown said. “He’s got some
quick moves that can make
defenders look pretty silly. I
got a dose of that on the last
play when I tried to stop him
after the fumble.”
Beck finished with 80
yards on 13 carries.
“He can make you miss,”
Cats
coach
Adam
Winegarden said. “He’s got a
lot of talent, but I don’t think
the defense was tackling
very good today. We’ve got
to improve on that. Although
I’m pleased with the kids’
attitude,
and
they’ve
improved a lot from the start
of spring until today, I can’t
remember the last time I felt
good coming out of spring
practice. We’ve got a long
way to go.”
Moore, gearing up for his
senior season, started the
scrimmage slowly, he said,
but found another gear in the
second half to finish with 85
yards rushing on eight carries.
“I didn’t run very well in
the first half, but I was blocking pretty good,” Moore said.
“The second half was a lot
better.”
Like Beck, Moore hasn’t
played defense since the
eighth grade, but he’s looking forward to pulling double
duty as a linebacker at times.

“I think they’re going to
put me in over there on special occasions,” he said. “I’ve
been working hard to get
ready.”
Defensive end Jalen
Fields, who has committed
to the University of Georgia,
gave himself mixed reviews
on the scrimmage.
“I did pretty good,” he
said. “The defense didn’t
have everybody that should
be playing and that hurt us a
little bit. We probably did
some things right and I was
mentally into it and gave 100
percent. But it wasn’t a
game. It was a scrimmage.
We were playing against ourselves.”
Brown completed 10 of
18 passes for 112 yards and
two touchdowns. Receiver
Tevin Collins caught four
passes for 52 yards. Brown
connected with Wilson four
times for 47 yards, including
a 20-yard touchdown strike
in the third quarter that gave
the White a 14-7 lead.
Wilson made a leaping catch
between two defenders in the
end zone for the score.
Brown tossed an 8-yard
touchdown pass to Cody
Patterson, who juggled the
ball a couple of times before
gaining possession while
being tackled, early in the
fourth quarter to stretch the
White’s lead to 21-7.
“Things went all right,”
Brown said. “I think we
could have done better on
both sides of the ball, so
we’ve got a long way to go.
Spring has been difficult
because we’ve been going
against our defense for two
weeks. They know every
route we run, but I had a few
good throws and we made
some good catches. I’d give
us a B-minus or a C-plus
grade. We’ve got to work
hard this summer.”
Winegarden likes the
Brown-to-Collins combination.
“Tevin was good last year
and has improved greatly this
spring,” Winegarden said. “I
like the way he works. Stryker
had some good throws and
made some plays, too. I didn’t
especially like his ball security in the pocket.”
Sophomore Tre Bonds led
the Red’s rushing attack with
82 yards on 16 carries. Kiker
finished with 80 yards on four
shots at the White defense.
After the scrimmage and
before the team was treated
to a cookout, Winegarden
announced a new spring
practice award named in
honor of the late Danny
Dantzler. The award is called
“A Heart of a Catamount,”
and he presented it to Watts
Dantzler, Danny’s son.
The award will be presented on an annual basis at
the conclusion of spring
practice. Scholar athletes
were also lauded and given
T-shirts for their classroom
accomplishments.
Second: New school, new opportunity
the option of playing in a
recreation league after being
cut, but believes he was good
enough to make the middle
school squad — still followed the Atlanta Braves,
still liked baseball, but mostly put the sport out of his
mind as he tried to put it
behind him.
That was true even when
he was a freshman at
Northwest Whitfield High,
but when he transferred to
Christian Heritage School
prior to his sophomore year,
Hayes found an opportunity
to start again.
“They needed players
here,” he said.
At the smaller school,
Hayes had a chance to return
to the sport in a lower-pressure situation — or so one
would think.
Christian Heritage baseball coach Noah Stokes
found a place in the starting
lineup for Hayes as a sophomore and envisioned an even
bigger role for him the following season, when the
Lions began play in the
Georgia
Independent
Schools Association. Stokes
handed Hayes the ball on the
mound the day the Lions
christened their baseball
field, a game that would soon
turn into a rout in visiting
Heritage’s favor.
And that’s when Stokes
learned there was definitely
some pressure on Hayes,
whether or not anyone else
intended to put it on the player — maybe even a little fear
about what might go wrong.
“I went out there, he’s in
trouble the first inning,”
Stokes said. “They beat us, I
don’t know, 15-1 or something. I could see his heart
beating through his chest.
That’s when I realized I was
putting too much on him too
fast.”
Hayes was obviously talented enough to do a lot of
things for the Lions. In addition to pitching, he saw time in
the outfield and at third base.
But it wasn’t until a few
games into this season that
Stokes found a way to make
Hayes comfortable enough
to get the most out of him.
Handing the middle of the
infield over to seniors, Hayes
was shifted to second base,
where he joined classmate
Gray Hutchinson, a shortstop
who had already signed with
Division II program Valdosta
State prior to this season.
Although Hayes had
never played second in all of
his baseball days, the combination was an instant hit.
“We’ve turned more double plays this year than we
have in a long time,” junior
catcher Parmelee Ward said.
“He’s really helped us out at
second base.”
Hayes said he never got
comfortable at third with the
Lions, though Stokes knows
it wasn’t because the player
didn’t try.
“I just asked him, ‘You
don’t really like playing
third, do you?’” he recalled.
“He’s the kind of kid who’s
not going to come out and
say, ‘Move me.’
“He was willing to do
what he was asked to do, but
I could just sense he didn’t
want to stick his nose in
there. And at third, you either
like it or you don’t, because
the ball gets on you real
quick. He’s got a good
enough glove and a good
enough arm and we needed a
second baseman.”
It might have been the
first step in unlocking
Hayes’ confidence, which
soon began to show up in
bigger doses at the plate, too.
With help on shortening his
swing from Lions assistant
Matthew Thomas, the once
dead-pull righty became reliable enough to move up into
the No. 3 spot when
Hutchinson was moved to
leadoff to pick up more atbats.
Now, as the Lions prepare
for a best-of-three semifinal
series against top-ranked
Heritage in the GISA’s Class
2A state baseball playoffs —
they’ll start with a 1 and 4
p.m.
doubleheader
on
Saturday in Newnan, with
the “if necessary” game set
for 1 p.m. there on Monday
— Hayes is the guy Stokes
would love to have at the
plate in a game-changing situation.
Not to mention, he’s a
guy Stokes is just glad to
have on the team — and one
who’s glad to be there.
Asked to think about what
might have happened if he
had not transferred, if he
hadn’t given baseball a second chance — one might
argue the second chance was
actually given to Hayes —
the senior second baseman is
clearly glad it’s just a hypothetical.
“I would have been kicking myself I hadn’t have come
back out,” he said. “I love
baseball. I’ve always loved
baseball, I’ve always loved to
play it. When I first quit, it
was like who cares ... but I
missed it. I missed playing.”
While his path to playing
varsity baseball wasn’t
exactly conventional, it gave
Hayes an opportunity to
build confidence he might
not have had otherwise.
“That first year I was
here, it was just hard for me
to pick up the ball coming
out of the pitcher’s hand,”
Hayes said. “I just had to get
back into the swing of things
and pick up back where I
was when I quit.”
That pulse-racing, overwhelmed pitcher Stokes
found on the mound a year
ago? He’s done OK in the
long run.
When the team held its
banquet earlier this week,
Stokes reserved a special
coaches’ award just for
Hayes.
It was for courage.
Kirkland: Grass’ first lap of college fast
Regional in Sorrento, Fla.,
though Brandon — also a
senior — did close his collegiate career with a round
under par.
I had the chance to talk
with both Brandon and
Hughes last summer while
writing a story for dalton
magazine, and both struck
me as smart, collected, driven individuals who loved the
game and gave their all to
whatever it is they do, on
and off the course. Brandon
may not have made the final
tourney. Hughes and his
teammates might or might
not win a national championship.
Either way, I have a feeling both will be successful
as they enter “the real
world,” whether it includes
more golf or not.
■ Another area product
who’s doing well in college
athletics is Daniel Grass.
Michael Green, a volunteer coach with Dalton
High, wrote this week to let
me know the former
Catamounts distance running standout hasn’t wasted
any time getting his college
career going at Kennesaw
State.
At last weekend’s
Atlantic Sun Conference
Championships in
Jacksonville, Fla., Grass and
his Owls teammates finished
second to East Tennessee
State, which claimed an
indoor-outdoor sweep in the
A-Sun track and field seasons. And though he’s only
a freshman, Grass played
his part, too.
His time of 1:52.28 in the
800-meter run was just .10
seconds off winner and
teammate Gianni Catalano.
According to Green, Grass
has already cut five seconds
off his time from high
school — a year ago, Grass
turned in a school-record
time while finishing third in
the 800 at state — and his
performance at last week’s
meet qualified him for a
spot in the Junior Outdoor
Nationals this summer.
Grass was also part of the
Owls’ 4x400 relay team that
finished first at the A-Sun
meet.
We’ll try to catch up with
Grass more in depth this
summer, as we hope to do
with several area athletes
now competing in college. If
you know of a former local
prep standout who’s doing
big things on the next level,
just let us know.
■ Here’s another plug for
our local sports calendar,
which you’ll find in today’s
section on page 4B.
Parents, if your child is
an athlete (or just aspires to
be one), there are lots of
opportunities to hone his or
her skills this summer at a
multitude of sports camps.
Even beyond the typical
team sports that come to
mind, there are opportunities to learn more about the
craft in tennis, golf and
other pursuits, too.
And don’t forget — you
can always check out the
latest, most up-to-date edition of the calendar online at
daltoncitizen.com/Events.
It’s not just camps, either.

UGA sports plans
facility expansion
GREENSBORO —
The University of Georgia
Athletics Association
board has approved up to
$40 million to add 53,000
square feet of space to its
football facilities.
A new weight room,
coaches offices, new training facilities and a large
multi-purpose area will be
added to the Butts-Mehre
athletics building in
Athens under the plan
approved Thursday.
Athletics director
Damon Evans said about
half the money will come
from private donations
and the rest borrowed.
University President
Michael Adams said he
supports the project as
long as 50 percent of the
money is raised.
No progress for
suspended driver
CONCORD, N.C. —
Jeremy Mayfield might
have to take legal action
to get his NASCAR suspension lifted.
The driver and his
lawyer met with NASCAR
for more than an hour
Thursday. Attorney Bill
Diehl said the meeting
was cordial but did not get
them any closer to resolving the issue. Mayfield
was suspended May 9 for
failing a random drug test.
NASCAR has not
revealed what banned substance Mayfield used, and
Diehl refused to identify
the substance. Mayfield
has insisted a mix of prescription and over-the
counter drugs led to his
positive result.
Smoltz rehabs via
start in Augusta
AUGUSTA — John
Smoltz took a big step in
his return form shoulder
surgery, throwing three
scoreless innings in his first
rehabilitation outing.
Pitching for the Boston
Red Sox’s Class A affiliate
in Greenville, Smoltz
struck out two with no
walks and threw 29 pitches
in his first game action in
almost a year.
He said he was throwing
at about 85 percent. His
fastball was timed at 92
miles per hour. The 42year-old Smoltz opened the
season on the disabled list
following surgery last June
to repair a torn labrum in
his right shoulder.

F
rom listening to Tony
Stewart talk about winning Saturday’s Sprint
Cup All-Star Race at Lowe’s
Motor Speedway, it’s clear that
he’s operating according to a
philosophy that will serve him
well as a driver/owner.
The recurring theme of
Stewart’s comments was: “It’s
not all about me.”
Stewart seemed plenty sincere when he said that he was
more excited for his organization’s achievement than about
what he’d accomplished personally.
“This is just so good for our
guys,” he said. “For Gene
(Haas), who took a chance and
gave me ownership in his team
and believed in us, and Joe
Custer, who has worked really
hard in helping us get the
right people in the right positions. For all the people who
believed in us — the office people, the people with Office
Depot and Coca-Cola,
Chevrolet and to know that
they are behind us 100 percent.
For the guys on the team;
there were a bunch of these
guys who had never been in
Victory Lane before and that is
the coolest part to me.
“To get them there for the
first time means more than a
million dollars does to me.”
Thrilling finish
The All-Star Race, which actually paid him $1,000,000, had
several different elements.
For most of the first three
segments of the race, there
was basically one all-star, the
driver who started at the front
and had the aerodynamic advantage that comes with clean
air, followed by a bunch of
also-rans.
But as soon as the green flag
Jubilant Stewart

credit following
All-Star Race win
flew to start the final 10-lap
segment, the sparks started
flying — literally. The racing
for the lead was three-wide
and risky at times, with Jeff
Gordon, Kyle Busch and Ryan
Newman making bids for the
win only to see their hopes
dashed by body damage sustained in their bold moves.
But with two laps to go, it
was Stewart, with hardly a
scratch on his car, who passed
Matt Kenseth to score his first
victory as a driver/owner in
NASCAR.
Kenseth finished second
ahead of Kurt Busch, Denny
Hamlin and Carl Edwards.
“We were just too loose all
night,” Kenseth said. “For the
long run, we were really
good.”
But the race boiled down to
some short runs, and Stewart
just drove by him to get the
win.
“I just cannot believe he
gave me the bottom,” Stewart
said, giving much of the credit
for his ability to take the lead
to his crew chief Darian
Grubb. “He made some awesome calls there at the end to
get us where I could drive that
thing the way I could. Man, it
was fast.”
Hats off to Hass
Now that he’s second in Cup
points and an All-Star Race
winner, there’s much being
said about the chance Stewart
took in leaving a secure job
driving Joe Gibbs’ No. 20
Toyota. But Stewart said his
co-owner Haas is the one who
really went out on a limb.
“You really have got to give
him the credit for taking the
gamble and taking the risk
and having us come be a part
of this organization like that
and trusting us to make some
pretty big decisions and personnel changes,” Stewart said.
“That’s not something that a
lot of people in that position
are willing to do and give up
that kind of control to let a totally different group of guys
come in and all of a sudden
start changing things around,
but Gene was willing to do
that.”
Haas, recently released from
prison after serving time for
tax evasion, was back at the
track for the first time on
Saturday. Stewart said his
main goal going into the weekend was to make it special for
his partner.
“When Gene got here today,
we wanted him to be proud of
what we were doing and what
we’ve built,” Stewart said. “We
just wanted to have a good
night for him.”
Stewart said that when his
teammate Ryan Newman took
the lead at one point late in the
race, his first thought was that
Haas would get to go to Victory
Lane his first night back.
Haas did get the win, but
with Stewart, who drenched
him with champagne in
Victory Lane.
“We absolutely soaked him
with the giant champagne bottle, but he’ll get over it,”
Stewart said, strongly hinting
that it won’t be the last time
that happens. “He’ll get used
to it. [Joe] Gibbs did for 10
straight years; so he’ll get over
it, too.”

T
he suspension of Jeremy
Mayfield for failing a drug test
was the hot topic in most driver
interviews at Lowe’s Motor Speedway
last week.
Drivers expressed concern about
taking basic medicines, and seemed to
be seeking answers
to a growing list of
questions.
Mark Martin said
he’d like to know just
exactly what it was
that Mayfield is acMAYFIELD cused of taking.
“I do feel that we
would all feel a little bit better if we
knew, because when you pick up the
paper and you see NASCAR zero tolerance, what does that mean?” he
said. “If you’re taking something as
prescribed, what does zero tolerance
mean?
“So it’s just a little bit scary; it’s a
little uneasy. It’s our careers, man.
“I’m sure that we’re all overreacting a little bit, but certainly nobody
wants to be caught up in that.”
Most drivers seem to have determined that it’s best to contact Dr.
David Black, who administers the
testing program, if there’s any doubt
about what they can and can’t take.
Matt Kenseth said all drivers were
given Black’s cell-phone number during a meeting earlier this year and
were urged to call him with questions.
“I felt pretty comfortable … when
we got done with him,” Kenseth said.
Greg Biffle, after listening to
NASCAR Chairman Brian France
field questions about the issue, said
he believes most drivers will err on
the side of caution in the future.
“Anything you take is questionable,” Biffle said, adding the best
choice in the future may be to “just
tough it out” when he’s ailing.
The Mayfield saga took an unexpected turn on Saturday when
Mayfield showed up in the infield at
Lowe’s Motor Speedway.
He told several reporters that he
did not take illegal drugs and that he
believes what turned up positive in
his test was an over-the-counter medication.
Mayfield insisted that he has not
been told which drug it was for which
he tested positive.
In an e-mailed statement, NASCAR
spokesman Ramsey Poston said that
is not true.
“All NASCAR members who violate
the policy, including Jeremy, are notified of the substance that caused the
failure,” Poston said.
Mayfield’s suspension prevents
him from attending races. On
Saturday, he watched the event from
the top of a hauler in the infield. He
indicated he was there to watch his
No. 41 Toyota, driven by J.J. Yeley, run
the Sprint Showdown. Yeley finished
22nd after starting 33rd.
Poston said Mayfield should not
have been at that location. In recent
years, crew chiefs on suspension
began showing up at racetracks and
observing races from outside official
areas, and communicating with the
crews by cell phone. But NASCAR officials said then that suspended members cannot even be on the property.
Poston said Mayfield was informed
of the current policy and agreed to
comply.

amping World Truck Series
veteran Matt Crafton wasn’t
able to repeat as winner of
the truck series race at Lowe’s
Motor Speedway last Friday, even
though he did find himself out
front with just 30 laps to go.
Still, he finished third behind
winner Ron Hornaday Jr. and runner-up Kyle Busch. It was another
in a series of strong runs by
Crafton, who clearly has his eyes on
a Truck Series championship.
He’s now third in the standings,
89 points behind Hornaday, the
leader, and just five back of Mike
Skinner, who dropped to second
after a nasty crash in the North
Carolina Education Lottery 200.
Crafton said his truck, a new one,
just wasn’t capable of victory.
“The truck would just not go anywhere when I was out there by myself,” he said. “We were out there
leading the race, and I couldn’t get
out of my own way. ... I don’t think
we will bring this one back anytime
soon.”

sidered bad luck.
The fact that Camping World Truck
Series veteran Mike Skinner was able
to walk away from his demolished
truck at Lowe’s Motor Speedway is a
testament to the success of NASCAR’s
safety efforts, particularly the steel
and foam SAFER barriers.
Skinner damaged a section of the
barrier, forcing officials to halt the
race for 35 minutes while workers
welded on the steel portion of the wall
and replaced three sections of foam
backing.
“That was that impact that, just a
few years back, would have sent you
off in a helicopter with your head
taped to a board,” Skinner said. “The
safety equipment did a wonderful job.”
Skinner entered the N.C. Education
Lottery 200 with the series points lead,
but lost the top spot after apparent
contact with the No. 13 truck of
Johnny Sauter. Skinner spun around,
then was shoved into the wall by the
oncoming truck of T.J. Bell.
Skinner’s truck was knocked nosefirst into the wall, rolled over on its
side, slid down the track and tumbled
over onto what was left of its wheels.
Skinner dropped to second in the
standings, 84 points behind the new
leader, Ron Hornaday Jr., who won the
race.
Hornaday Jr. said that’s not the way
he likes to gain ground in the points
standings.
“I don’t like doing the points thing
that way,” he said. “I was more concerned about Mike’s safety. I hate him
on the racetrack, but I love him as a
brother outside.”
Hornish Jr. savors victory

in the month of May, even though it

1. Three spades. Game is likely, despite partner’s minimum rebid of one notrump. With your 11 high-card points
and reasonably good six-card suit, you should therefore
jump to three spades (forcing) to be sure of getting to game.
Partner should have either two or three spades — he is
unlikely to rebid one notrump with a singleton — so you
can feel fairly confident of at least some spade support. You
plan to pass if he bids either three notrump or four spades.
2. Two clubs. The most you can expect to make after
partner’s one-notrump rebid is a partscore. The two-club
bid (not forcing) is designed to find the best partscore contract. You should feel more secure about making two clubs
(if partner passes) or two spades (if he shows a preference
for spades) than one notrump. Hands with singletons usually don’t play well in notrump.
3. Two notrump. Obviously you can’t bid two clubs with
this hand, and also with the preceding hand, because partner wouldn’t know whether you were simply aiming for a
partscore or trying to get to game. You’re very close to the
game zone, but you don’t quite have the values to bid it unilaterally.
In such cases you invite partner to go on to game if he
has a little extra. Here, two notrump serves that purpose
ideally. It allows partner to pass if he has a bare minimum,
and to carry on to three notrump with a maximum for his
first two bids.
4. Three diamonds. Since you have an opening bid facing an opening bid, you must get to game, but since you
can’t be sure of the best contract at this point, you should
consult partner by making a forcing jump to three diamonds. You plan to pass three notrump if partner bids it; to
carry on to four spades if partner next bids three spades,
indicating three-card support; or to continue to five diamonds if partner bids four of that suit.
Tomorrow: Mission impossible?

Phantom limb pain torments Army veteran
DEAR DR. DONOHUE: Will you please discuss phantom limb pain? I
am a World War II veteran
and had to have a belowknee amputation due to
injury. As I age, the phantom
pain has become very severe.
The medication I take no
longer eases the pain.
As many combat veterans
have had amputations, I am
hoping that there have been
new treatments for phantom
pain that could help me. —
N.H.
ANSWER: A very large
number of amputees suffer
from phantom sensations or
phantom pain. Phantom sensations are the feeling that
the missing limb is still
there. Phantom pain is experiencing actual pain in the
missing limb. It’s the brain
where pain is appreciated.

are stimulated just as they
would be if the limb were
still present.
The military has the
greatest experience in and
knowledge of treating this
malady of any institution in
the world. If you’re being
treated at a Veterans Affairs
hospital, I don’t think I can
add anything to your care. If
you are not, I can make a few
suggestions.
Anti-seizure medicines
like Tegretol and Neurontin
might bring some relief.
Nerve blocks and spinalcord stimulation are two
other techniques that could
help.
A method employing a
large mirror to rewire brain
circuits is another approach.
The mirror is positioned in
such a way that the patient
sees he or she has two complete limbs again. The brain
becomes conscious of a
healthy limb where the
amputated limb was, and it
suppresses the pain signals it
had been generating.
You deserve the best
treatment available. You
made sacrifices for the rest
of us. We should see that you
are getting maximum care.
DEAR DR. DONOHUE:
Communication
between myself and my old-
est daughter leaves much to
be desired. She is 43. She
recently told me that her kidneys are working at only 44
percent of capacity. She says
it’s because of extreme stress
resulting from an ugly
divorce. What factors could
have precipitated her declining kidney function? Should
she be on a bland diet? —
M.T.
ANSWER:
Diabetes,

attack on the kidneys and
narrowing of kidney arteries
are some of the causes of
kidney failure. Stress isn’t

Does Adam Lambert’s ‘Idol’ loss matter?
BY JOCELYN NOVECK
AP National Writer
NEW YORK — Adam Lambert fans, take heart:
At least your guy doesn’t have to sing the hokey “No
Boundaries,” this year’s much mocked “American
Idol” ballad, ever, ever again.
That dubious honor will go to winner Kris Allen.
But there are other reasons Lambert lovers can
dry their tears. Given the glam-rocker’s unique persona, his strong fan base and the massive exposure
he’s gotten, he may be as likely as any “American
Idol” winner to achieve that elusive stardom the
show tries so hard to achieve.
Not to take anything from Allen, the fresh-faced,
soulful Arkansas crooner who surprised many —
and himself, to judge by his stunned expression —
by taking the crown. His victory showed he has both
the musical chops and the broad-based appeal to be
a star, too.
But not simply because he won. Industry insiders
say that once that “Idol” bubble breaks at the end of
the season, all bets are off.
“It doesn’t really matter if you win,” said Diane
Warren, the Grammy-winning songwriter who’s
written for Whitney Houston, Celine Dion, and
Mary J. Blige, not to mention “Idol” alums like
Carrie Underwood, Kelly Clarkson and Jennifer
Hudson. “It’s all about what you do after the show.”
For Lambert, who cut his teeth in musical theater
and drew outsized attention from
the start with commanding
vocals, a signature banshee wail,
flamboyant outfits and yes, the
eyeliner and black nail polish,
the future is particularly bright,
Warren said.
“He’s just a hands-down star,”
said Warren. “He’s different. He
shook things up.”
Lambert
And it may even help that he
came in second, she said,
because he’ll have more control over his career:
“There’s not as much of a committee plotting your
every move.”
It’s well known that an “Idol” victory does not a
star make. Kelly Clarkson, the first-season winner,
became a pop radio staple; Ruben Studdard, the next
year, did not. Fourth-season winner Carrie
Underwood is arguably the reigning high priestess
of country music; the next season’s winner, Taylor
Hicks, is set to play Teen Angel in the Broadway
production of “Grease.”
As for the also-rans, Clay Aiken, who lost to
Studdard, became a much bigger star. Chris
Daughtry, who came in fourth the year Hicks won,
sold more than 1 million copies of his self-titled
album after five weeks, the fastest-selling debut rock
album in history. And just ask Oscar, Golden Globe
and Grammy winner Jennifer Hudson, who came in
seventh in season 3, if there’s life after an “Idol”
loss.
For now, all that may be cold comfort to Lambert
fans, many of whom woke up Thursday morning
feeling bereft.
“I know Adam will have a great career, but I’m
upset on principle,” said Janet Metz, a stage actress
and singer. “Talent did not win out.”
Her husband, Michael Unger, is also a fan.
“Besides his charisma, Adam’s vocal range is amazing,” said Unger, who directs both theater and opera.
“He hits those notes without straining his voice. He
sang the high notes in that Queen song last night
with an ease that even Freddie Mercury would have
been proud of.”

GOLF ROUNDUP
Nitties, Duke share top spot in Nelson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
IRVING, Texas — PGA
Tour rookie James Nitties
finished with four consecutive birdies for a 5-under 65
and a share of the firstround lead with Ken Duke
on Thursday in the HP
Byron Nelson
Championship.
Nitties, was 1 under
through 14 holes and hopeful of getting one more
birdie in his round. He then
hit his approach at the 504yard 15th to 5 feet, and his
longest putt in the closing
stretch was 12 feet.
The 26-year-old
Australian who appeared on
the Golf Channel’s “Big
Break” series finished second at the PGA Tour qualifying tournament last fall.
Duke snapped a streak of
11 consecutive rounds in the
70s to share the first-round
lead for only the second time
in his 118 career starts. His
putt at No. 18 stopped 3 inches short of the hole, or he
would have had another birdie.
Mike Weir, Scott
McCarron, Charles Howell
and Brad Adamonis shot 66s.
Senior Championship
BEACHWOOD, Ohio
— Scott Hoch bogeyed the
final two holes for a 4-under
66 and share of the firstround lead with Tom Purtzer
in the 70th Senior PGA
Championship, the first
major of the year for the
over-50 set.
Their 66s matched the
lowest competitive score at
venerable Canterbury Golf
Club, which joined Oak Hill
in Rochester, N.Y., as the
only course to host all five
of the premier U.S. men’s
championships played at
rotating sites.
Germany’s Bernhard
Langer, a two-time winner
this year and the Champions
Tour’s top money-winner,
had a 68 and was alone in
third. Tom Kite, John
Morse, Mark James, Joey
Sindelar, Larry Mize, Dana
Quigley and Fred Gibson
were the only other players
under par, each with a 69.
Only 10 players broke par
and 12 others shot even-par
70 in warm and sunny
weather with blustery wind
at the 88-year-old layout in
suburban Cleveland.
France’s Karine Icher and
South Korea’s Hee Young
Park shot 8-under 64s to
share the first-round lead in
the LPGA Corning Classic.
Park had eight one-putt
birdies, only one from more
than 10 feet, and completed
her round on the forgiving
Corning Country Club
course with a 6-footer at
No. 18.
Icher tied her with an 8foot putt at No. 18.
Minea Blomqvist, Sandra
Gal, Sarah Lee, Soo-Yun
Kang, and Hee-Won Han
shot 65s, and Paula
Creamer, Morgan Pressel,
Nicole Castrale, Sarah
Kemp, Jimin Jeong and Na
Yeon Choi opened with 66s.

Q&A
Check the vitals on
your pet cat
1C
Study tracks trends
on which dogs bite
If you can’t feel your cat’s
pulse, talk to your veterinarian
about getting some weight off
him.
Q: We used to have dogs, but now
that we’re retired we don’t anymore.
We sadly lost our last German
shepherd five years ago, and that’s it
for us. But we were adopted by a stray
cat, and he’s a joy.
Since we had dogs for decades, we
knew a lot about their care and how to
know when they were ill. Can you
offer advice on how to know if our cat
is “off ”? — C.P., via e-mail
A: With a little practice, you can
easily learn to take your cat’s vital signs.
A cat’s heart normally beats between 140 and 220 times per minute,
with a relaxed cat on the lower end of
the scale. It’s not unusual for their
heartbeat to be high at the veterinarian’s, since cats don’t like being away
from home, and they certainly don’t
like being poked and prodded by
strangers.
To take your cat’s pulse at home,
you need a watch that clicks off the
seconds. Put your hand over your cat’s
left side, behind the front leg. You’ll
feel the heartbeat pulsing beneath
your fingers (if you can’t, you might
talk to your veterinarian about getting
some of the fat off your cat). Count the
beats while 15 seconds clicks off your
watch. Multiply by four to get the
BPM, or beats per minute.
While you’re at it, check out your
cat’s respiration rate. Step back and
watch your cat when he’s relaxed and
standing. Count the number of times
the abdomen and chest wall moves in
60 seconds. A normal cat takes 15 to 25
breaths per minute.
Normal feline body temperature is
between 100 and 102.5 degrees Fahrenheit,
read from a thermometer inserted
where the sun doesn’t shine.

A biting dog is likely to be
small — and known to the
victim.
Even the most skittish of kitties can learn to love being petted, if you build up
their tolerance over time.
Don’t-touch-me-now cats can be reformed,
with patience
By Dr. Marty Becker
and Gina Spadafori
Universal Press Syndicate
T
he Jekyll-Hyde turn
some cats make when
being petted has their
owners convinced they’re
crazy. But that’s not the case:
Some cats need to be taught to
accept the loving attention of
their owners.
The conversion takes time
and patience, but it’s worth it
for all.
Both genetics and social
factors contribute to how
likely a cat is to bite or claw
while being petted. Some cats
are born with short fuses;
others are made that way (or
made worse) through a lack of
early socialization or proper
training in their kittenhoods.
That’s why it’s important to
never let a kitten come to believe fingers are for chewing
on, even in play. Redirect your
kitten’s playful energy to toys
instead. And never hit a kitten
or cat for biting, since you’ll
make it more likely, not less,
that your pet will strike faster
in fear and self-defense the
next time.
Natural activity levels
also play a part in how much
petting a cat will tolerate. Cats
from large-breed backgrounds
(think Maine coon) are generally mellow in temperament,
willing to sit quietly while
being petted. So-called
Oriental breeds or mixes
(think Siamese or Burmese)
are usually more interested in
being on the go.
But no matter how hairtrigger the setting on your
cat’s attack mode, you can
work to increase your pet’s
tolerance for petting by paying close attention to his body
language as you slowly
increase the amount of time
during which he’ll calmly
accept your attention.
“Both genetics
and social
factors
contribute to
how likely a
cat is to bite or
claw while
being petted.”
You should also be aware
that some areas on a cat are
more sensitive than others.
For a highly reactive cat,
restrict your caresses at first
to behind the ears, under the
chin or the base of the tail. A
long stroke down the back is
too much for some kitties,
and you’re really taking

Cats, dogs need blood donors just as people do

commercial blood banks have
opened in response to this
need, and many veterinary
practices, schools and colleges
have developed their own
blood banks.
The donated blood is used in
the same way that blood is used
in human medical facilities: as
whole blood, plasma and
packed red cells. The blood is
collected in sterile plastic bags
and is handled and stored in
the same way as human blood.
Cats and dogs don’t get to

who do give are generally

that there is a growing shortage of canine
chances when you decide to
tickle your cat’s tummy. The
cats who enjoy it are outnumbered by the cats who’ll
seek to stop it with teeth and
claws.
Work to build up your cat’s
tolerance to touch over time.
When you pick up your cat
for a petting session, don’t
surprise him. Come up on
him slowly and pick him up
gently, making sure his whole
body is supported with a
hand under his chest and one
beneath his legs.
Pet him in less-reactive
areas on his body, watching
for the first sign of a tail
twitch. When you get that
early warning sign, stop petting and let your cat leave if
he wants to. The idea is to
work up to just short of the
point where your pet becomes
uncomfortable and then stop,
so you can gradually increase
his tolerance for petting. For
some cats, the addition of
treats during petting can also
help the reconditioning
process.
If you miss the signs and
end up in your cat’s nonaffectionate embrace, just
freeze. Providing no resistance will help calm your cat
so he’ll just let go, usually in a
few seconds. If you fight back
or physically punish your cat,
you are more likely to get
bitten or scratched in the
short run and damage your
relationship with your pet in
the long run.
Be patient, and be satisfied
with small improvements as
you go. As any cat lover will
tell you, teaching your cat to
tolerate petting is well worth
the effort — for both of you.

these days, canine popularity isn’t

• About 15.8 people per 1,000
are bitten by a dog every year,
with about 3.1 of the same
people needing medical
attention. In a study for the
journal “Injury Prevention,”
researchers conducted
telephone surveys and compared
the results from a decade ago.
People were most likely to be
bitten in their own homes by
known dogs. As the number of
dogs rose above one in the
household, the bite occurrence
also increased. The study found
that dog bites in children had
decreased in number, while older
adults showed an increased
number of bites. The increase in
older victims may be linked to
the popularity of smaller dogs,
more likely to be owned by
seniors and statistically more
likely to bite.
• Horses and donkeys burned
in Australia’s wildfires are getting
help from across the globe. The
University of Melbourne has
been treating the animals, but
has been getting much-needed
help from the University of
California, Davis, School of
Veterinary Medicine. UCD has
sent medications and has paired
up the Melbourne team with Dr.
John Madigan, a professor of
veterinary medicine and head of
UCD’s Veterinary Emergency
Response Team.
• The smallest dog on record
was a Yorkshire terrier, who was
2.5 inches tall at the shoulder,
3.75 inches long from the tip of
his nose to the base of the tail,
and weighed 4 ounces.
According to “The Book of
General Ignorance,” the dog died
in 1945. For the smallest dogs
living today, the current world
record is shared by a Yorkshire
terrier (shortest in height) and a
Chihuahua (shortest in length).
Whitney, the Yorkie, lives in
England and is 3 inches tall at
the shoulder. The Chihuahua,
called Danka Kordak Slovakia, is
7.4 inches long and lives in
Slovakia. Extremely tiny dogs are
known for their frail health, so we
hope others won’t be trying for
this dubious record.
— Dr. Marty Becker and Mikkel
Becker Shannon
THE SCOOP
For felines, up is
faster than down
The structure of a cat’s paw
and claws is one reason these
animals have such an easy time
going up a tree but such a difficult
time coming back down.
A cat’s paws have claws curved
for fast forward motion, which
makes rapid ascent easy for the
average cat — grab higher with
the front claws, kick higher with
the back, and repeat.
Not so easy coming back down,
which at best is an ungraceful
maneuver of (hopefully) short
falls, with a safe but embarrassed
landing at the end.
Most cats do find their way
back down in time, which is a
good thing these days. With
municipal budgets being what
they are, few fire departments are
allowed to respond to “cat stuck
in tree” calls anymore.

Charleston cedes
‘Most Mannerly’
title to Savannah
BY RUSS BYNUM
SAVANNAH— They’ve
been rival Southern cities for
276 years, but Savannah and
Charleston, S.C., aren’t going
to risk their courtly reputations by fighting over which
one is “America’s Most
Mannerly City.”
After a 12-year reign,
Charleston officials have
agreed with a survey’s organizer that it has held the “Most
Mannerly” title long enough,
opting to cede it to its

For more than a decade,
voters choosing the best-mannered city have agreed.
Grosso said Charleston finished first in the latest poll
with about 25 percent of
roughly 1,700 votes — most
cast via a link on her Web site.
Savannah was the runner-up
with 5 percent in the unscientific survey.
Johnson, the mayor since
2004, said the recognition is
well-deserved by Savannah,
which has long referred to
itself as the Hostess City of
the South.
“This is another acknowledgment that we have branded
ourselves correctly,” Johnson
said. “I hope we earn it outright next year.”
The “Most Mannerly City”
survey was started in 1977 by
etiquette expert Marjabelle
Young Stewart, who wrote
more than 20 books on proper
manners and tutored the
daughters of Presidents
Lyndon B. Johnson and
Richard Nixon in civility.
For 30 years, Stewart
awarded the title to cities from
her home in Kewanee, Ill.,
based on thousands of letters
she received from travelers
and etiquette students. After
she died in 2007, Stewart’s
husband asked Grosso to keep
the award going.
Johnson, a Savannah
native, says old-fashion manners literally pay off in helping Savannah attract more
than 6 million tourists a year.
Grosso has a theory on
why people would rank
Savannah and Charleston
among the nation’s most courteous cities: The sweltering
summer heat makes people
nicer.
“When it’s hot, you move a
little slower,” she said. “And
when you move a little slower,
you have time to hold the door
and time to say ’Good morning.”’
