We quickly got on to the topic o

whether to join the technology revo-

revealed that 42 percent o seniors use

Uneven economic recovery for VirgiBy Bill McMorrisOld Dominion Watchdog

Virginias unemployment rate isamong the lowest in the nationand revenue jumped nearly 20percent in May, but economic re-covery is not coming to all Virgin-ians, leaving Gov. Bob McDonnellskeptical that a rising tide can litall boats.In April, the state experienced

growth o o 0.7 percent; how-ever, most Virginians did notexperience this growth. Te statesgood ortune is really the north-ern regions good ortune, as thesouth o the state continues tolag. Northern Virginia carried thestate, growing 1.1 percent in the

month. Tis oset the decline inHampton Roads and Richmond-Petersburg, which ell 0.2 and 1.0percent respectively.McDonnell is disturbed by the

trend.Im o the belie that the rising

tide does not lit all boats andthats why weve tried to ocuson some o the mega trends ineconomic development and thentry and direct as many projectsas we can to the south side andsouthwest where theyve hadchronic double-digit unemploy-ment, he said. Northern Virginia

continues to drive a lot o the

economic activity and sales tax.And locally its about the onlyarea in the country where real es-tate values have actually startedto go up again.Northern Virginia has proved

one o the luckiest areas in thecountry during the recessionand has bucked most economictrends, thanks to a surge in ed-eral spending and job opportuni-ties with government agencies,contractors and deense groups.Its home prices have done theimpossible, steadily rising evenas the real estate market coun-

trywide continues to ree all.Te south and southwest areas

o the state have not been aslucky. Tese areas have reeled ineconomic decline or more thandecade, as textile, tobacco andurniture makers have closed upshop, sending tens o thousandso blue collar workers into theunemployment line.Some places are growing, some

are not, state Secretary o FinanceRic Brown said. Go to a placelike Danville, a place thats gothigh unemployment; you willnd that its traditional economicbase textiles, urniture letin recession and hasnt come backand it isnt coming back.Te state is channeling projects

and directing business to thepoorer areas o the state. he$3 billion transportation spend-ing pushed by McDonnell, orexample, is expected to improveVirginias inrastructure and roads but it will go a long way in get-ting unemployed textile actoryworkers back in the job market.Economic development, accord-ing to Brown, is even more im-portant than state projects.Leaders in Richmond courted

businesses and money makersrom across the world to set upshop in some o Virginias mostdistressed areas, and the state is

shelling out millions in tax breaksin some cases to hammer a dealthrough. he governors oice,or example, plans on shelling out$4.6 million to Steven Spielbergthis year to help him produce hisAbraham Lincoln biopic block-buster.

By Jonathan LucciFrederick County Report

he raise on citizens waterand sewage rates in Win-chester was made ocial by CityCouncil during its July 12 meeting,with some modications.Te original plan had called or

a 20-year loan to pay or the costsassociated with the renovationprojects being planned to the sys-tem. Te loan would be paid downby raising the rates 15 percent in2012 and another 15 percent in2013, with smaller increases in theyears to ollow.

Councilman Willingham pro-posed modiying the plan by

changing the payment period onthe loan to thirty years, instead otwenty. He raised concerns aboutpaying a larger amount o moneyin a shorter time rame, pointingout that there may be other proj-ects required in that time periodthat would be harder to pay orbecause o the loan payments.Tat could put stress on the cash

low or existing inrastructureprojects, said Willingham whendiscussing the 20-year loan. Tere was some disagreement amongcouncil members, with CouncilPresident Buettner indicating hebelieved the change was unneces-

sary. However, council voted toamend the ordinance and applyor a 30-year loan.Te change in the plan will ben-

et consumers slightly. Te jumpin water and sewage rates will be14% in 2012 and again in 2013, asopposed to 15 percent.Council also ocially approved

an ordinance exempting disabled veterans rom paying propertytaxes. Te ordinance itsel is away o implementing a require-ment under state law to exemptthese veterans and to clariy whois eligible. Council believes that

the language in the state law isunclear as to whom is eligibleor the exemption and the ordi-nance is meant to assure that nodisabled veteran is excluded romthe exemption because o unclearlanguageIt is the belie o Common

Council that the legislative intentis served by allowing those veter-ans whose entitlement to exemp-tion may be precluded due to thelegislative ambiguity to receive theexemption, states the ordinance.o be eligible a veteran must have

a disability that was service-con-nected and is permanent.he report given to Council

stated that the nancial impact

on the city would remain unclearbecause it is tied to how manyveterans would apply and be ap-proved.Council also approved an ordi-

nance that redistricted some othe voting wards in the city andcreated a second polling place inthe Fourth Ward.

Wincnester City Council

members met in regularsession on Tuesday. They

approved water/sewer

rate increases for 2012and 2013 in order to help

offset costs associat-

ed with the renovations

needed for the plant.

Dont Let Down YourFinancial Guard

Depending on which pundit you lis-ten to, the news on the economic frontstill isnt good. Purchases of homes arestill down. There was a small upwardblip in advance of the tax credit forhomebuyers coming to an end, butthen the figures and prices fell again.Consumer confidence is still down,and not too many people are expectingto buy big-ticket items soon.

Still, if you know where to look andare willing to take small changes asindications of a recovering economy,its possible to find hope:

More shipping containers are being

processed in ports. More truckingcompanies are hiring drivers. Storeswouldnt be ordering merchandiseunless there was an indication thatconsumers will buy.

Small local banks in many parts ofthe country are posting profits again,no longer barely hanging on.

In a survey by Advantage magazineof small business owners comparing2010 with 2011, fewer owners thinkwere still in a recession, a highernumber expect revenue to be as goodas last year, the majority plan to keepstaff and approximately one-quartereven plan to hire.

Parity Is Buzzword o

2011 Season

In 2010, 13 drivers won

Sprint Cup races. David Ra-

gan became 2011s 12th. Te

Coke Zero 400 was the 17th

race o the season, one shy o

the halway point.

Tey are Kevin Harvick

(3), Kyle Busch (2), Matt

Kenseth (2), Je Gordon (2),

Carl Edwards, Kurt Busch,

Jimmie Johnson, Denny

Hamlin, Ragan, Brad Kes-

elowski, Regan Smith and

revor Bayne.

Just as surprising are

some o the drivers who stillhavent won races: among

them Dale Earnhardt Jr.,

Clint Bowyer, Ryan New-

man, ony Stewart, Greg

Bife, Juan Pablo Montoya,

Mark Martin, Kasey Kahne,

Je Burton and Jamie Mc-

Murray.

o cite one example,

Stewart has won at least

once in every season o his

career, dating all the way

back to 1999.

As such, it appears possi-

ble that NASCARs all-time

record or winning drivers

within a single season will be

exceeded. Nineteen drivers

visited victory lane in 2001,

1961, 1958 and 1956.

Earnhardt, while congrat-

ulating Ragan, also said o

Daytona, I dont know. Its

weird racing.

What kind o move can

you make? ... Tere aint no

move you can make. You just

hold it on the mat and trynot to wreck into each other.

You see how good we are at

that.

Sure, both Daytona victo-

ries this year, by Bayne and

Ragan, were monumental

upsets, but the trend goes

deeper than just restrictor-

plate tracks.

In Harvicks three vic-

tories, he led a combined

total o nine laps. Victo-

ries by drivers who actually

dominated races have been

ew and ar between, most

notably Kurt Buschs In-

neon Raceway triumph and

Kenseths win at exas Mo-

tor Speedway.

rack position has be-

come exceedingly important

at most tracks. Fuel mileage

seems at least as crucial as

speed. Te ranks o adept

road racers has thickened.

Te past ve Sonoma (In-

neon) races have been won

by drivers who had neverpreviously won on road

courses.

A ew weeks back, it

seemed as i the season was

developing a pattern and

that amiliar stars were tak-

ing control. Perhaps that

was the impression that was

eeting.
