SANFORD: Council drops 'second offense' from proposed firearms bill
City officials requested a new draft of a proposed state bill requiring mandatory sentencing for felonies committed with a firearm Wednesday afternoon.
Sanford City Council reviewed a draft bill requiring an additional 10-year active sentence for all persons convicted of a felony involving a firearm for a second offense during the Law and Finance Committee meeting Wednesday. However, council members requested the bill be redrafted to strike reference to second-time offenders and apply the additional sentencing for the first time someone is convicted of a felony with a firearm.
"We shouldn't give a person a second chance to kill someone," said Council member Poly Cohen. "It ought to be for first offenders."
Sanford Attorney Susan Patterson, who drafted the bill, said the second offense was included at the request of Council member Charles Taylor because of the various types of felonies a person could commit. An example Taylor used, Patterson said, was that stealing pine straw is considered a felony. Taylor was not present at the meeting and could not be reached for additional comment.
The bill was drafted after a discussion during a December City Council meeting on recent gun violence in the city. Sanford Police Chief Ronnie Yarborough said in December stricter state laws would need to be addressed to include mandatory sentencing because of the number of repeat offenders law enforcement officers encounter.
Taylor previously said he was working with several North Carolina legislators for a potential bill concerning gun violence, but would not elaborate.
Patterson said Wednesday there is no tracking system in place now to see if a person previously committed a crime with a firearm.
Council member James Williams asked if this legislation has been reviewed by the N.C. League of Municipalities. Patterson said Taylor had indicated he wanted to keep the bill low profile.
All of the present council members, including Sanford Mayor Cornelia Olive, said they wanted a new draft of the bill to include the sentencing for first offenders.
"I have a real problem with this being the second offense," Olive said. "It seems to me we are giving another opportunity to kill someone, and we need to leave it at the first offense."
Patterson said she'll have a new draft for the council to review during its meeting Tuesday.
In other matters, council heard:
* Council member Rebecca Wyhof's request for the city to form an environmental affairs board. The Lee County Board of Commissioners voted to create a nine-person Environmental Review and Advisory Committee — a group mandated to review technical documentation and advise the county on testing matters impacting the environment — to replace the now disbanded Environmental Affairs Board. With the impending natural gas drilling in the area, there are concerns for the city that the council members should be advised on by experts, Wyhof said.
* Central Carolina Hospital's request for the city to refund the late listing penalty in the amount of $4591.53 from the years 2008 to 2011. According to a CCH letter in the council's agenda, the late listing penalty resulted in the discovery of personal property which should have been listed, but wasn't. The Lee County Board of Commissioners denied the request from CCH to refund the county amount of $6,377.13.
* A presentation from Utility Service Partners Inc., a company that provides water and sewer line insurance, on partnering with the city to offer warranty coverage for utility service repairs. According to Michael Madden, regional account manager for Utility Service Partners, residents could opt into water and sewer line insurance for a monthly fee.

Newtown, Conn., parents ask for police in schools
NEWTOWN, Conn. (AP) - Some parents in Newtown, Conn., are urging local education officials to consider stationing police at all town schools as they put together their budget proposal.
Three parents called for school resource officers at all Newtown schools at a school board meeting Tuesday night. They say the town should do all it can to prevent another tragedy like the one last month at Sandy Hook Elementary School, where a gunman killed 20 first-graders, six educators and himself after fatally shooting his mother at home.
Superintendent of Schools Janet Robinson's proposed $73 million education budget for 2013-2014 includes $165,200 for an extra eight security guards. She says safety became officials' top concern after the shootings.
Newtown has a high school, middle school, intermediate school and four elementary schools.

COLUMBIA Lawmakers who want to overhaul state government and give South Carolinas governor more control of bureaucratic functions will try again in the legislative session that starts today.
But many legislators say the hacking last fall of millions of taxpayers personal information from an agency Gov. Nikki Haley controls hurts arguments to give her office more responsibilities. Other lawmakers argue that the debacle at the Department of Revenue strengthens arguments for the additional oversight called for in the bill.
Proposals to abolish the Budget and Control Board and transfer many of its duties to a newly created Department of Administration died repeatedly under former Gov. Mark Sanford, whose contentious relationship with legislators made a deal difficult.
Haley then made it her administrations signature issue. A law enabling Haley to claim victory came close to passing in June but died in the Senate as the session ended without a vote.
I still believe its highly improbable to transfer a lot of additional responsibilities and duties to the governors office, no matter whos the governor, said House Minority Leader Harry Ott, D-St. Matthews. I see no reason why I or any other member of the General Assembly would rush to give the governor any new power when they havent demonstrated a good use of the power they already have.
A hacker exposed millions of residents and businesses to identity theft in September largely because the Revenue Department did not encrypt personal data including Social Security and bank account numbers and failed to block access to them with layers of security. It took notification weeks later from the U.S. Secret Service for state officials to even realize taxpayers data had been compromised.
Even supporters of government restructuring say that effort has been hurt by the nations largest hacking of a state agency.
The problems weve had with agencies have been with Cabinet agencies, said Senate President Pro Tem John Courson, R-Columbia. Ive been in favor of the chief executive having more powers in state government. I still support it, but what transpired hurt it.
Senate Majority Leader Harvey Peeler said the hacking debacle will likely come up in government restructuring debates, but it should not affect the outcome. The executive functions of government should be under the governor, period, said Peeler, R-Gaffney.
Advocates want to break up the little-understood Budget and Control Board and bring an end to the powerful, five-member board of politicians that oversees the agency. Bureaucratic duties such as property and fleet management, janitorial services, and computer technology would be in the new Cabinet agency.
Haley spokesman Rob Godfrey said the Republican governor looks forward to working with reform-minded legislators to finally make a Department of Administration a reality and give residents the kind of efficient and accountable government they want and deserve.
The proposal must start anew this year. The effort is being led in the Senate by Democratic Sen. Vincent Sheheen whos sponsored the idea for a decade and Republican Sen. Shane Massey. Their bill is set for debate Thursday in a judiciary subcommittee that Massey chairs.
Arguably the most important part of the bill, say Sheheen and Massey, is that it requires the legislature to have more oversight of state agencies, by requiring hearings and periodic reviews.
Most of the time, we dont know whats going on in a lot of government, said Massey, R-Edgefield. Usually, when we do oversight, its in response to a scandal or natural disaster.
Massey was among senators railing against Cabinet agencies that blew through their budgets under Sanford and were bailed out by the Budget and Control Board, which the governor chairs. When Haley took office in January 2011, three Cabinet agencies were projecting deficits totaling $265 million.
I realized we didnt have a clue what was going on in those agencies, Massey said. It will require much more work in requiring more oversight. It probably will require more staff, but its vital for legislators to know whats going on to provide checks and balances.

Evening of desserts, donors helps programs for learning disabled
- What: Dessert Gala and Benefit for Grace Christian School's Individualized Learning Center
- When: 7-8:30 p.m. Saturday
- Where: Grace Chapel Church Sanctuary; 2605 Jefferson Davis Highway, Sanford
- Who: Desserts from Mrs. Lacy's, Sandra's Bakery, Sweet Frog and Dandalia Bakery.
- Costs: $25 for one raffle ticket (for a Ford Explorer giveaway); $100 for five tickets.
A fund-raiser this Saturday will give money to programs for children with learning disabilities, and one lucky donor will win an SUV in return for his or her charity.
Grace Christian School is having a dessert gala from 7-8:30 Saturday night to benefit the school's Individualized Learning Center, which helps students at the school with learning disabilities. There will be desserts from several local businesses and individuals, as well as a drawing for a 2005 Ford Explorer. Tickets for the raffle are $25 apiece, or $100 for five, and are available at the school's office.
The Individualized Leaning Center has been up and running since 1995, during which time it has served 178 students. The school has since added services and programs from the Creative Education Institute, the National Institute of Learning Development and Switched-on Schoolhouse, all aimed at helping students with issues ranging from dyslexia to ADHD and other afflictions that keep them from catching up to their classmates.
"Our students all have an average or high IQ, but in the classroom, they're identified as a slow learner," said Lynn Kruger, who heads up the school's series of specialized programs.
She said as many as one in five students nationwide has some form of dyslexia and that there's a higher percentage in Christian schools, which she said is largely due to parents being drawn to the smaller class sizes and different programs private schools offer. But she said the school can only help those students if it's able to fund the programs they need.
Headmaster Bill Carver said he's strongly supportive of the specialized instruction because of how he's seen students improve.
"They have a vision of where they want to be but have this hurdle in their way," Carver said. "What this does is give them a vehicle to get over that hurdle."
Diane Kannarr said her son Evan, a junior at the school, has been diagnosed with the most severe form of dyslexia and would never have been as successful academically as he is now without these programs. She said that in addition to academic help for his dyslexia — a condition that can't be cured but can be controlled — her son also received general guidance, like being encouraged to speak up for himself more and to deal with his issues in a proactive manner.
"Now I know if he goes out to college and I'm not there to mother him, he'll know where and how to ask for help if he needs it," she said.
Kannarr said that as a business and marketing professor at Central Carolina Community College, she sees a lot of students who likely have learning disabilities but never got help — or at least proper help — and she said she thinks her own son might have been in the same position if he hadn't gone to Grace Christian.
Carver said that because the school gives its students a religious grounding as well as the opportunity for all students to play sports, they get a well-rounded perspective of what it takes to be successful and to overcome difficulties. Kruger added that generally, students with these types of disabilities excel in non-academic fields like art, sports or music. So with the knowledge that they can indeed push themselves above and beyond, she said, the trick is to start where they're comfortable and gradually give them challenges that get them up to speed.
"Some of our students will come in and say, 'I have ADHD,' and I say, 'Good, you know what you have. Let's work from there,'" Kruger said. "They want to use it as a crutch, but we turn it into a step."
According to a study of 8,488 students in the Creative Education Institute — with results that Kruger said were approximate to what she sees at Grace Christian — the average student in the program improves his or her reading comprehension by 1.82 grade levels in one year of instruction. About a third improves by one grade level, a third improves by two or more grade levels and a third improves by less than one grade level.
The school provided a statement that it's expecting increased enrollment next year because of a drop in the price of tuition, and that it's holding the fund-raiser in part to expand on the services it already offers in anticipation of that increase.

Excelling with runners in scoring position, Burgess recorded 16 RBIs on his 12 hits. Burgess also stole two bases and scored nine runs on the week. In 2013, Burgess leads No. 6 Crowder with a .467 batting average and 26 RBIs.
The Blue Wave defeated Lake-Sumter State (Fla.) 3-0 last week behind de Montluzin's no-hitter. The freshman delivered nine near-perfect innings for Florida State-Jacksonville, striking out seven and giving up only one walk in the performance.

RED JACKET – The Tug Valley lost one of its legendary coaches when Joe Clusky lost his bout with cancer over the weekend.
His stellar coaching career started back in 1962 and ended many years later. Clusky coached many a youth at Red Jacket Junior High, Magnolia (Matewan) High School, and after retirement, he returned to help his son Tony coach at Williamson High School.
Born June 1, 1934, at Majestic, Kentucky, Joe was the son of Dominick Clusky and Rosa Hurley Clusky, who was of Italian ancestry.
While coaching the Tigers at Matewan, Clusky coached his sons JoJo, David and Tony in basketball. At times he was also an assistant football coach and he also coached baseball for the Tigers.
Over the last few years, he enjoyed watching his grandsons play at various high schools in the area, including Phelps, Logan and Matewan.
Clusky guided two basketball teams to the West Virginia State Tournament. Back in 1972 he led the Tigers to the Class AA state championship game. Unfortunately they lost to Mullens in the finals. That squad was led by Mike Collins and Bill Roberson. His son JoJo was the point guard for that team. He took another Tiger's squad to Charleston back in 1981.
His late 1960s teams' were some of the best, led by players like the Joplin brothers, David Hatfield and many others.
Clusky's dedication to teaching began in 1960 at Red Jacket Junior High School (RJJH) in Red Jacket, West Virginia.
In 1962, Clusky began an illustrious coaching career, initiating the football program at Red Jacket and winning four consecutive Mingo County basketball championships (1964-1967).
Under Clusky's leadership, the 1967 RJJH football team captured the county junior high school football championship.
In 1968, Joe accepted a teaching/coaching position at Matewan (Magnolia) High School, where he was a teacher, coach, and mentor until his retirement in 1989.
In recognition of his leadership and dedication, Joe Clusky received Coach of the Year honors numerous times.
He coached many players through his tenure and several all-state selections and Williamson Daily News All-Area members.
Clusky was also a standout athlete during his younger years. As a student at Matewan High School, Joe lettered in all three major sports and received a football scholarship to New Mexico State in Las Cruces, New Mexico, where he was a stellar quarterback. While at Morris Harvey College (now the University of Charleston), from which he graduated, he was a member of the baseball team.
Joe was widely known as a beloved father, teacher, coach, and mentor. After serving in the 82nd Airborne division of the United States Army in Fort Bragg, North Carolina, he returned to Red Jacket, where he established his lifelong career as teacher and coach.
Joe Clusky will be sadly missed on the local sports scene. He was a fixture on the sidelines or in the stands for more than 50 years.

On Palm Sunday, Christians around the world remembered how Jesus rode on a donkey into Jerusalem.
Crowds lined the roadway and gave him their version of the "red carpet treatment." They laid garments and tree branches on the road in front of him. They cheered him on. They declared he was the one sent to free them from the domination of Rome.
What a fantastic day it was.
Coming in peace
However, there was a little confusion. Jesus was riding a donkey, not a horse.
Why would that be confusing? Because of the symbolism.
In that day, whenever a king rode into someone else's territory on a horse — in this case, Jesus was entering Roman-dominated territory — it meant the king was coming to engage in war to overthrow current ruling powers.
If a king rode into someone else's territory on a donkey, it symbolized the king was arriving in peace. There was no intention to engage in hostilities.
On that day, Jesus rode into Jerusalem on a donkey, declaring he was arriving in peace, not with the intent to engage in war.
Still, many people expected him to rally everyone and overthrow Rome. Their expectations were high — and incorrect.
Your expectations
What expectations do you have of Jesus that actually don't measure up to who he is and what he is attempting to do in your life?
Do you find yourself asking questions like:
●Why didn't he let my team win?
●Why didn't he heal so-and-so like I asked?
●Why doesn't he end world hunger and eradicate diseases?
It can be difficult to remember that Jesus came into this world to do God's will, not yours or mine.
Just a few days after Jesus rode into Jerusalem on a donkey, people realized that Jesus was not going to do for them what they expected and even demanded. He was going to do his Father's will.
How did they respond?
In anger. They nailed him to a cross and watched him die.
How many different ways do we still crucify Jesus today? One is by turning away from him. Pouting when we don't get our way. Ignoring him six out of seven days a week. Claiming to belong to him but do nothing to show it.
Celebrating the 'prince of peace'
On Palm Sunday, Christians rejoiceed at how Jesus arrived in Jerusalem on a donkey to proclaim God's peace.
On Thursday, we remembered how a just, holy man was condemned to death by people he loved, but who were threatened by his diligence in obeying God's, not humanity's, desires.
Between Palm Sunday and Easter Sunday, get to the foot of the cross on which Jesus was nailed, so you will truly understand what it means when Jesus is declared King of kings and Lord of lords.
The Rev. Mark Broadhead is Laurel Hill Presbyterian Church and First Presbyterian Church of Crestview's pastor.

Q:If I were to use this every day, how long would it last me? Is there enough liquid in the bottle so that I wouldn't run out for months?Asked on 5/4/2013 by karleegirl from San Francisco, CA

A:If the Independent is used daily, one pot will last a couple of months. This product goes on smoothly and is quite pigmented, so a little goes a long way.Answered on 9/24/2013 by Kendra M from LUSH Direct

1 answer
A:Independent has a gel base to it, therefore, it is great at staying put. If you are concerned, or want to ensure it doesn't move, the Emotional Brilliance powder works wonderfully as a base to help the liner from smudging.Answered on 9/19/2012 by Melissa S from LUSH Direct

Man held in jail on theft chargesApril 06,2013Man held in jail
on theft charges
BENNINGTON An Arlington man is being held in jail after being accused of taking two cartons of cigarettes from a Manchester store March 27 and some miscellaneous items from an Arlington doctors office March 9.
Benjamin S. Payne, 32, was arraigned in Bennington criminal court this week on a felony charge of burglary and two misdemeanor charges of petty larceny.
Payne pleaded innocent Monday but at a hearing Tuesday, defense attorney Lucy McCarthy said her client would not object to being held in prison because the Department of Corrections revoked his furlough.
Police said Payne took some tourniquets and needles from Arlington Family Practice on March 9. The combined value of the items was about $1.50, police said
Payne was also accused of taking two cartons of cigarettes and going through an employees handbag at Maplefields store in Manchester on March 27. He was charged with burglary because police said he entered an area of the store not open to the public.
Police said the incident at Maplefields was recorded by the stores video surveillance system.
Payne was charged Friday as a habitual offender, which allows a judge to sentence him to up to life in prison if hes convicted. Payne has previous felony convictions for escaping from furlough, burglary and identity theft.MORE IN This Just InThe family of a Connecticut man who was killed in a car accident on Route 4 last Friday night is...

During Saturday's World Series of Fighting 5 telecast on NBCSports, reporter Joey Varner made a startling announcement. A new Jersey Athletic Commission staffer reportedly saw a cornerman give middleweight Elvis Mutapcic a medication from a bottle containing several different prescription pills, as they were readying to walk down the aisle for the main card fight with Jesse Taylor. Not knowing what was in them, and with no record of a waiver or other form of approval, NJSAC counsel Nick Lembo cancelled the contest.
"There were some prescriptions that weren't given to our doctors during the physicals and that weren't approved by us, the commission," said Lembo. "So since we don't know what they are and what they do, we cancelled the fight.
"We can't take that chance to have that fight go off, so those things need to be looked at, and they need to be talked about. We just feel that we're not going to have a fight in New Jersey when we don't know what someone is taking."
Mutapcic said the entire thing was a case of mistaken identity.
"I really don't know what happened, what she saw," said the Bosnian American. "She might have been taking some medication, herself. I put in a good 10-week training camp. I worked my ass off. I know Taylor's ready. I'm not sure if she misstated me for my manager, who has a heart prescription. He was the one that had it. We're all dressed the same - same T-shirt, same hat. I mean, there's four of us, and she's pointing me out, that I took it. I say I'll take a blood test. I'll give a hair sample if they need it. I've got nothing in my system. I'm completely clean."
WSoF president Ray Sefo said the bottle contained six or more different pills, and blamed the corner for incometence.
"It is sad to see this happen," sadi Sefo. "I've been in martial arts for 25 years and have never seen anything like this. Elvis has been training for this fight for 10 weeks. But the commission has made its decision and we have to live with it. Because this was an issue with the fighters manager, both fighters will receive their show money."

This is such a wearable colour. I like how it evens out the colour of my lids so that anything else I apply with it looks better. This looks great on its own on the lid or with a subtle brown (Omega, Wedge, UD Naked) to give a bit of crease definition. Makes for a really nice work look – looks like you're not wearing eye makeup but are just blessed with great good looks. Bonus with this is there is little fallout and any that might occur is basically invisible (at least on fairer toned skin).
Naked is described as a "flesh beige with pearl." It's a pale, peachy-beige with a soft, champagne shimmer-sheen. Apply dry, it's a very sheer wash of color with some sheen, and then when applied with a damp brush, it's opaque, warmer, and darker. It wore well for seven and a half hours before showing some signs of fading and very, very faint creasing. This shade is part of the permanent range. NARS Jezebel (P) is similar, MAC Phresh Out #3 (LE) is more frosted. Too Faced Cheers! (LE) is similar. Kat Von D Precious (LE) is also similar. NARS Nepal (P, $24.00) is a touch darker. See comparison swatches.

White praises Robbie Lawler and 'hungry' Strikeforce crew after UFC 157 | News
"The people were booing at the beginning of that fight," White said. "None of us like the up-against-the-fence bulls---. But those dudes were working. If you know wrestling and you know this sport, that was a war. That was a wrestling war between those two. That was fun. I liked that fight, and I liked that fight going into this fight."
Of particular note to the UFC president was how much better Lawler looked as a welterweight. The longtime middleweight made his return to 170 pounds, and after the fight said he felt better than ever.
White seemed to agree.
"He looks good at 170 pounds way better than he did at 185," White said. "He looked slow and lethargic and out of shape. He looked like he didn't give a s--- at 185. He looked like the old Robbie Lawler at 170 pounds."
The old Robbie Lawler is regarded as one of the most feared strikers in MMA, and the new one at welterweight will be, too.
What Lawler did was not easy. Koscheck's never had a losing streak, but he does now thanks to Lawler's big right hands with him up against the fence. Though arguments could be made that the fight was stopped just a little too soon and they were made right away on social media White said he believes Koscheck was out and the stoppage was a good one.
It was a key win for Lawler, not just as a statement in his return to the UFC, but to keep him from a really rough stretch that would've meant four losses in five fights, otherwise.
That may be part of an overall sense of Strikeforce urgency that White continues to see happening since the UFC absorbed most of the fighters after that promotion closed its doors this past month.
Joining Lawler as former Strikeforce fighters in the win column at UFC 157 was Nah-Shon Burrell (9-2 MMA, 1-0 UFC), who picked up a win over Yuri Villefort (6-2 MMA, 0-1 UFC) yes, another Strikeforce guy.
"Strikeforce had hungry fighters," White said. "These f---ing guys are hungry. Most of them haven't fought in a year. They didn't know what was going on with their career. Couldn't pay their bills. All this s---. Now they're in here and they know what it was like to be (over there). They're hungry, man. I love it.
"The Strikeforce kids, they're going to raise the bar on all these other guys."
