City fixes water lines BY PAT KIMBROUGH ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – The city has finished repairs to about 40 waterline breaks that occurred during a recent cold spell. There also are plans in the works to rebuild filters at the Ward Water Treatment Plant that were damaged after prolonged freezing temperatures starting in mid-December made water drawn out of the city’s lakes more difficult to treat. “It’s not really unusual to have that many (breaks) in that short a time. I think the extreme cold this time did make it a little worse, but we do have lots of breaks every winter,” said Chris Thompson, public services director for the city. “The lines are repaired. We’re getting a little better treatment at the plant right now. We have contractors working as we speak to start the rebuild on the filters that were down.” Last year, the city unsuccessfully sought federal stimulus money to upgrade obsolete water lines in various neighborhoods. Officials said water lines typically last at least

50 years and that age doesn’t necessarily make them more susceptible to breaks during extended bouts of freezing and thawing. “I’m not sure how much relevance age has as much as the temperature changes and movement,” Thompson said. “I think obviously it’s going to hit the weaker parts of your system, which typically are your older lines, but I wouldn’t say there’s a specific time there.” Officials said upgrading water and sewer infrastructure continues to be a priority, although funding sources have been tight during the bad economy. “Obviously, with the economic times we’re in, we’re having to cut back on some of that right now, but it still is a priority for the council and the city,” said Assistant City Manager Pat Pate. One major infrastructure project moving forward is a $8.98 million upgrade for the Westside Wastewater Treatment Plant the council approved in October. pkimbrough@hpe.com | 888-3531

Judge: Video of shooting to stay sealed BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

RANDOLPH COUNTY – A Randolph County Superior Court judge has ruled in favor of the parents of a University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill student who were requesting Archdale police dash-cam videos surrounding the death of their son be permanently sealed. On Friday, Judge Brad Long sent notification to Hugh Stevens, an attorney representing The High Point Enterprise and several other media outlets, that the

videos would not be released. “This court has determined that the court is without the authority as a matter of law to order the release of the Smith video, therefore, the parents’ second argument that the video should not be released in the court’s discretion is not considered,” Long said. The video is not a public record as set out in general statutes, the judge also ruled. In Randolph County Superior

Court last month, Stevens argued dark and troubling” incident against Jonathan Megarian, an where Courtland Smith died “at Asheboro attorney who repre- the hands of a police officer” in the middle of the night. Megarian, meanwhile, argued that several cases set a precedent for the judge to permanently seal the videos. Smith, a UNC fraternity president, was stopped on Interstate 85 by two Archdale police officers on Aug. 23. Prior to being stopped, Smith had called 911 asking for police assistance and telling a dispatcher he was suicidal, driving sented Pharr and Susan Smith, drunk at speeds of up to 110 mph that the release of the videos would “shed some light on a very SHOOTING, 2A

GREENSBORO – A relief concert to benefit those affected by the Haitian earthquake is being organized for next week. The committee for the Band of Oz Haitian Relief Benefit is looking for a minimum of 300 verbal commitments by Sunday from those interested in attending a relief concert that would donate proceeds to the local offices of four national, non-profit organizations. Upon receiving the 300 commitments, the concert will be held 7-10:30 p.m. Wednesday at the Empire Room on S. Elm Street in Greensboro. Admission is $12 for

Tommy Lineberry, coordinator of special events for the Children’s Home Society of N.C. and one of the organizers of the event, said he and a group of friends organized a similar concert when the Indian Ocean tsunami struck in 2004. “It was just a group of private citizens that got together for that,”

use the funds for its specific relief efforts in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, where the earthquake hit Jan. 12. “All of this started about a week ago,” Lineberry said about preparations for the concert. “This is absolutely amazing that everybody has stepped up to the plate like this.” The committee has found restaurants and entertainment that will donate their services at a discounted price so the event can be held at a reasonable cost, including music provided by the Band of Oz beach band. That’s why the concert is contingent upon a minimum of 300 verbal commitments, though there is always room for more, Lineberry said. “We need to know how many people to prepare for, but we are confident we’ll get that number,” he said about the 300 RSVPs.

Yadkin River bridge decision may come next month BY PAUL B. JOHNSON ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

AT A GLANCE

–

DAVIDSON COUNTY – The administration of President Barack Obama may not make a decision until next month on a federal stimulus grant request by the state of North Carolina to replace the Interstate 85 bridge over the Yadkin River. Last summer, the White House accepted applications from the 50 states for big-ticket roadway and bridge projects that will be funded through a portion of the nearly $800 billion American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. Gov. Beverly Perdue’s office selected the replacement of the I85 bridge at the Davidson-Rowan County line as the lone submission for the state under the grant program, which will involve $1.5 billion for projects nationwide. The I-85 bridge replacement is expected to cost more than $300 million. The White House indicated last summer that an announcement on the projects could come in January. State officials learned recently that the White House announcement might not come until February, said Pat Ivey, a

If the administration of President Barack Obama approves federal stimulus funding for the replacement of the Interstate 85 bridge over the Yadkin River, work could begin early this year. A new bridge at the DavidsonRowan County line would be built to the southeast of the existing span, which opened in 1955. The more than $300 million project would upgrade 6.8 miles of I-85, including widening the highway from four to eight lanes and realigning the roadway to eliminate sharp curves. The existing bridge would serve motorists until the new one opens. The new bridge is expected to take three years to complete. Source: N.C. Department of Transportation

of Sen. Kay Hagan. “I-85 is one of the Eastern Seaboard’s most important economic corridors. Securing funding for the corridor is one of my highest priorities, and I expressed this directly to Transportation Secretary (Ray) LaHood during the competitive grant process,” Hagan told The High Point Enterprise. DOT officials have taken steps to be ready to launch the project if the White House approves the I-85 bridge replacement. Specifications on the project have been sent to construction companies that would want to bid on work. The first contracts could be let to construction and design companies as early as March, Ivey said Friday. The replacement of the bridge and related roadway work has the potential to “create or sustain” 7,000 jobs, the DOT reports. The section of I-85 at the bridge is one of the most heavily traveled highways in the state, with a daily traffic count of 70,000 vehicles. Daily traffic is projected to increase to 144,000 vehicles in 20 years, the DOT reports.

ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

HIGH POINT – A High Point resident who teaches in Davie County was arrested and is charged with two sexual offenses involving minors. Eric Jason Reeder, 34, of 201 Rankin Place was arrested Thursday by the Winston-Salem Police Department and on Friday by the High Point Police Department. According to WXII 12 News, the Thursday arrest in Winston-Salem was the result of an incident on Jan. 13 in which a juvenile reported that a male was peeping into the bathroom stall he was using at Barnes & Noble Booksellers at 1925 Hampton Inn Court. Reeder was arrested Thursday in relation to the incident, and he was charged with misdemeanor secret peeping.

On Friday, Reeder was arrested by High Point Police and charged with one count of taking indecent liberties with a child and one count of indecent exposure. The High Point arrest resulted from an incident that happened in June 2008. Police said only that the incident happened at a business on the north side of High Point. Reeder is being held at the Guilford County Jail in High Point under a $100,000 bond. Reeder teaches English at Davie County Early College High School in Mocksville, where he has taught since August 2007. He was suspended without pay pending the outcome of the investigation, according to a school official. Parents at the school were sent a memo advising them of the arrest.

Traffic stop leads to multiple charges BY PAT KIMBROUGH ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

DAVIDSON COUNTY – A Greensboro man faces drug, weapon and assault charges after a traffic stop by a Davidson County Sheriff’s Office unit devoted to interdiction efforts. The sheriff’s Interstate Criminal Enforcement division stopped a 1998 Plymouth Neon Tuesday on Interstate 85 South outside Thomasville for what authorities termed a sus-

pected traffic violation involving the vehicle’s tag lights. During the course of the traffic stop, officers smelled marijuana from inside the vehicle and conducted a probable cause search, deputies said. Officers located a 9 mm handgun on the driver’s side floorboard, partially under the driver’s seat. They also found about 1 gram of marijuana inside the car. Officers

attempted to place the driver, Andrew Myron Lawing, under arrest, but he struck and pushed two officers in the chest and ran from the scene, according to the sheriff’s office. Lawing, 30, of Vanstory Street, Greensboro, fled to a nearby wooded area along Old Highway 64 and I-85 but was captured by officers a short time later. Lawing was charged with misdemeanor possession of marijuana,

resisting, obstructing or delaying a public officer, carrying a concealed weapon, two counts of assault on a government official and possession of a firearm by a felon, according to the sheriff’s office. He was jailed on a $20,000 bond in advance of an appearance scheduled for Feb. 23 in Davidson County District Court. pkimbrough@hpe.com | 888-3531

Alleged car thief found playing ‘Grand Theft Auto’ ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) – Sheriff’s deputies in central Florida found a suspected car thief playing the “Grand Theft Auto” video game, and they later charged him with just that. Polk County deputies investigating the theft of

a 1998 Dodge Durango arrested 30-year-old Michael Ray Ekes on Thursday. They found the SUV outside a Haines City home. Ekes was inside in the house, playing the popular video game. Ekes was charged with grand theft auto, burglary

and drug possession. At the time of his arrest, he was out of jail on bond for another grand theft auto charge. According to Polk County jail records, Ekes remained in custody Friday. Bond had not been set and no attorney was listed.

In September, Long ruled that the release of the videos would hinder the case and jeopardize the right of potential defendants to receive a fair trial but said he would release the videos if no charges are filed against the officers. In December, Randolph County District Attorney Garland Yates cleared Officer Jeremy Paul Flinchum, who fatally shot Smith. The district attorney ruled the officer’s actions were justified

Afghanistan bans fertilizer chemical used in bombs KABUL â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The Afghan government banned a fertilizer chemical on Friday that was used in the devastating Oklahoma City bombing and in most of the homemade explosives that have killed and maimed hundreds of American soldiers here.

Washington fears the blacklist â&#x20AC;&#x201C; now more than 500 candidates and expected to grow â&#x20AC;&#x201C; could set back reconciliation efforts between the majority Shiites who gained power with Saddamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fall and the Sunnis.

British brothers sentenced for torture LONDON â&#x20AC;&#x201C; A pair of British children who lured two other youngsters to a secluded area and subjected them to a horrifying catalog of near-fatal abuse were sentenced to at least five years in custody Friday. The attackers, 10 and 11 at the time, were convicted of robbing, beating, and stabbing their victims with sticks and bricks. One child, 10, had a sink thrown onto his head, while his nephew, 9, was forced to eat nettles. The violence included sexual degradation, Justice Brian Keith said during the sentencing.

Relatives said they pulled an 84-year-old woman from the wreckage of her home on Friday, 10 days after the magnitude7.0 quake, but some teams were giving up the search and efforts focused on expanding aid for survivors.

Opinion Page Editor: Vince Wheeler vwheeler@hpe.com (336) 888-3517

Military exists to protect all Americans As a recent U.S. Army retiree, I feel that I must respond to a variety of letters to the editor over recent months. This is not meant to show disrespect for any one particular view, but is meant to clarify the purpose of the United States military. First, the U.S. military is not the “property” of any one particular religious belief or political party. It exists to protect all the American people. Each member, upon enlisting, swears an oath of allegiance specifically to “uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States,” and to the Uniform Code of Military Justice. They do not swear an oath to any particular commander-in-chief, but do swear to follow his orders. One of the first things taught in Army basic training is that there is no black, white or brown, not female or male, no Democrat or Republican in the Army; there is only Army green. The military exists as an impartial entity, tasked with specific missions that include protecting rights such as freedom of religion and freedom of speech. Both the Army and Navy were created long before the establishment of the Republican or Democrat parties. I was, however, particularly offended by Cathy Hinson’s letter concerning President Obama’s speech to cadets of West Point. As someone who worked in public relations for the Army, I can attest that all members of the military receive public relations training to include maintaining military bearing on camera. To assume that one can “interpret their thoughts” is nothing more than a transparent political ploy.

Leviticus 25 verse 45, God states “of the children of the strangers that do sojourn among you, of them shall ye buy, and of their families that are with you, which they begat in your land: and they shall be your possession.” And in Exodus 21, the Bible says it is acceptable for a father to sell his daughter into servitude. Clearly, then, Christian teachings are no friend to “equality and freedom.” While many leaders of the civil rights movement may have called themselves Christian, they fought for equality and freedom in spite of Christianity, rather than because of it. Had they, or any other Christian, truly followed scripture to the letter, the results would have been frightening. CODY Z. HALL High Point

Be careful; our world is full of evil Sir Edmund Burke said, “The only thing necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing.” I don’t need to tell you that the world is full of evil. Just watch the evening news. How else can you explain someone stealing from Toys For Tots? There are, though, still many things for which I am thankful: God has blessed me with a wonderful wife. Although I am disabled due to a stroke and not able to work for over a year and a half, even my doctors have commented about the excellent care she has given me at home. Beyond that, God also has blessed her with the ability to

find a bargain. In economically tough times, especially when you are unemployed and unable to work, that certainly is a special blessing. For example, she recently bought me a pair of Florsheim Comfortech shoes at a thrift store. Retail value? $98. She paid $5. They looked as if they never had been worn. If only everything were as simple as buying clothing from a thrift store. What about when you have car problems? After all, auto repair is something you need to know about personally or something you need to turn over to someone you can trust. Let me assure you all crimes do not make the evening news. Not all evil makes the evening news. For example, there is an auto repair business in the area that, despite what a business card or advertising says, never will earn my trust. You heard about the low life who stole the handicappedequipped van with the young girl’s wheelchair inside? Contact me at tommyguyer@live.com and I will tell you what this guy did to our van.

We need persons of vision on City Council After appearing to support the Core City plan to limit the area to an adequate area for furniture market development, the High Point City Council has caved in to

a few property owners outside of the Core City’s plan recommenced market overlay to limit the market development in downtown High Point. These people aren’t interested in our city, but in getting what they perceive as top dollar for their properties. Many of them don’t live in High Point and don’t have any interest in the city as a whole. A market overlay to limit showroom development in downtown High Point is paramount for our redevelopment in the downtown. The city must offer tax incentives to get businesses and restaurants back into the downtown area just as they did in north High Point. Market visitors are tired of having to drive halfway to Greensboro or to Winston-Salem for a good meal and a moment of relaxation after a hard day’s work. We all know what the market dollars mean to this area. If we don’t want to lose the market to Las Vegas, we need to take steps to improve our city. If you don’t believe that it can happen to us, just take a drive to Detroit and you will see the effect of losing an industry. Most all of the high rise buildings are empty. All of the shops and restaurants are gated and no longer in operation. They have lost their tax base, just as we will do if we don’t make some changes. Due to the City Council’s shortsightedness and not in a longrange plan for High Point, the Core City plans are in jeopardy. Hundreds of hours have been spent and many, many city dollars to create this plan for the betterment of downtown. If you have any love for our town, please get on your high horse and let the City Council know that you don’t condone their action. Next time we have an election, please remember how they gave in to pressure not advantageous for all of us. We need persons of vision on the Council to take High Point into this new century. It is my heartfelt hope that all of you will get behind the persons on the Core City group. They have worked so hard for High Point. They have given their time for all of us.

The other item that is giving the FBI headaches this week is the just-released report by the Justice Department’s Office of the Inspector General regarding the illegal collection of telephone records of American citizens during the Bush administration by the FBI. The report, A Review of the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s Use of Exigent Letters and Other Informal Requests for Telephone Records (http://www.justice.gov/oig/special/ s1001r.pdf), makes it clear that the FBI lied, broke the law of the United States, and took steps to cover up their own blatant abuse and violation of the law. Unlike the humor the photo fiasco might provide, when an organization such as the FBI, with all of the powers that are afforded it, intentionally breaks the very laws they are sworn to uphold themselves, we need to demand swift, immediate action against the lawbreakers. Otherwise, Osama wins. Now picture that. ROBERT HEALY is a veteran of the U.S. Army and graduate of the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. He lives in High Point.

Survey: More bias in US against Muslims than other faiths NEW YORK (AP) – Americans are more than twice as likely to express prejudice against Muslims than they are against Christians, Jews or Buddhists, a new survey found. Nearly two-thirds of Americans say they have little or no knowledge of Islam. Still, a majority dislike the faith. The analysis, for release Thursday, is from the Gallup World Religion Survey and is part of a project on finding ways to increase understanding between Americans and Muslims. President Barack Obama and his administration want to improve America’s image in the Muslim world. Many analysts who study extremism also say that U.S. Muslims who feel alienated from broader society resist integrating.

BIBLE QUIZ

---Yesterday’s

Bible question: Find Daniel’s description of Messiah in Daniel 10. Answer to yesterday’s question: “Then I lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a certain man clothed in linen, whose loins were girded with fine gold of Uphaz: His body also was like the beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as lamps of fire, and his arms and his feet like in colour to polished brass, and the voice of his words like the voice of a multitude.” (Daniel 10:5-6) Today’s Bible question: In Daniel 9, Daniel refers to the prophet Jeremiah. In Jeremiah, find the passages Daniel refers to.

New Testament: Jesus was physical O

ver the years, a number of different views of Jesus have developed. The basic Christian idea is that God decided to come to earth in the form of a human (known as the incarnation) called Jesus. Over time, many people accepted this and many have not. Some believe that Jesus was a wise teacher: Gandhi believed this. But basically, people either have believed that Jesus was God or that Jesus was a wise teacher (if one thinks of him at all). But early on, some people developed a third option of Jesus. And this idea developed so soon that it is even mentioned in the NT. So, to understand some verses in John, I John, and II John, and Jude better, read on. This alternative idea of Jesus is really the combination of Christianity and another belief. This other belief is called Gnosticism (do not pronounce the “G”). What happened was that some Gnostics liked the ideas and words of Jesus and so borrowed Jesus from Christianity and formed a new alternative idea called Docetism. So, Gnosticism plus Christianity equals Docetism.

First, Gnosticism. Gnostics basically believed in three things. First they believed in many gods. And these gods were not equal, so you really STUDYING had a range of gods THE CHURCH from the most powerful to the weakest. So think of this Mark as many layers of Nickens gods. Second they ■■■ believed that the highest god focused on spiritual truth. Down at the bottom, the lowest god decided to create everything physical, which would include the earth. Now, all the gods are spirits, but the lowest god did decide to create physical-ness. Third they believed that those people who wanted to understand truth and reality had to focus on and pray to the highest god. Praying to the lowest god would get them nothing since he was, after all, the lowest god. Next, Docetism. Some Gnostics took the idea of Jesus from Christianity, blended it with Gnostic beliefs, and came up with Docetism. The docetic idea has three parts. First, the

highest god decided to send a messenger to earth. Second, the messenger’s name was Jesus. Third, since Jesus came from the highest god, whose focus was spiritual truth, then Jesus was only a spirit. He seemed to be physical for the sake of all the humans but was 100 percent spirit. Thus the name “docetism” because, in Greek, it means “to seem.” So Docetics, or Gnostic Christians, believed that Jesus was only a spirit. They even used a Bible story to back up their claim. The Gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke all state that a guy named Simon carried the cross of Jesus. Docetics believed that Simon was actually crucified and not Jesus, and they used these verses as proof. Now to our Bible verses. John, I and II John were written later than Matthew, Mark, and Luke. Docetism had developed when they were written. That is why they talk against Docetism and not M, M, L, or even Paul’s letters (since he died prior to it being developed) did. I John 4:2 states: “This is how you can recognize the Spirit of God: Every spirit that acknowledges that Je-

sus Christ has come in the flesh is from God.” The first part of II John 7 states: “Many deceivers, who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh, have gone out into the world.” And finally John. In John 20:24-29 Thomas said that he would not believe Jesus had risen from the dead until he had touched Jesus. Jesus appeared to Thomas and told Thomas to touch him and Thomas believed. Now consider this: who cared if Thomas believed or not? The point of the story is for John to tell the Docetics that Jesus was really human, since he commanded Thomas to touch him. Further, John is the only Gospel which said that Jesus carried his own cross. The other Gospels only mention Simon; the Docetics picked up on it and said that a switch was made since Jesus, being spiritual, could not have carried the cross; and so John includes information which says that Jesus did carry the cross in order to refute the Docetics.

The LORD make his face shine upon you and be gracious to you. Numbers 6:25

Fear and anger are natural human emotions and it is perfectly appropriate to feel them in the appropriate circumstances. These emotions, which are closely allied with our bodies’ “fight or flight” reactions, are natural mechanisms for self-preservation. It is clearly a good thing to feel fear when in the presence of real danger or anger. Fear and anger are a bit like warning bells or alarms, telling us that we need to fight or flee, but sometimes the alarm is going off and there’s no real danger. Some politicians and certain media outlets are good at stroking fear and These things I have spoken unto anger, and seem bent on keeping us in a perpetual state of fear and anger. If a tornado you, that in me ye might have is heading your way, it’s probably appropriate to be fearful (and to get in the basement), peace. In the world ye shall have but should we really be angry or fearful about national or international politics? We should not be passively resigned in the face of politics. People should be informed and tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world. get involved in local, state and national politics, but we need not get overly disturbed John 16:33 about it. The real problem with all of the fear and anger generated these days is how unproductive and debilitating it is. It keeps the talking heads happy, but it leaves the rest of us fearful, angry, and powerless to do much about it. So, perhaps we should keep our heads calm and unruffled, and save the fear and anger for when we really need it. Virtue requires doing the right thing with no expectation of reward, and still doing it happily, but without becoming too proud of our good deeds. When we are raising our children, we often use punishment and reward to shape their behavior. But as they grow older, we want them to understand that some things are inherently good (or bad) and must be done (or avoided) regardless of whether one is rewarded (or punished) for doing them. If punishment and reward are overemphasized, we run the risk of raising children who are only good when they are being supervised. Likewise, we don’t want to be adults who are overly concerned with reward. The idea that we will be rewarded in heaven for our good deeds is often comforting when we are being punished for them here on earth. But, if that is the only reason we are doing good deeds, to be rewarded for them, then surely we’ve tainted the pure effect of those good deeds. Virtue is indeed its own reward, and we shouldn’t expect to be paid handsomely for doing what is right. We should do the right thing simply because it is the right thing to do. He who is slow to anger is better than the mighty, and he who rules his spirit than he who takes a city. R.S.V. Proverbs 16:32

>Wj[Z Ij_hi Kf :_ii[di_ed" Xkj Bel[ 9el[hi 7bb Mhed]i$

A venue for those commissions has not been decided yet, but the most likely place is a planned prison facility in Illinois to house terrorism-era detainees.

School officials review plan BY DAVID NIVENS ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

GUILFORD COUNTY – School district leaders will bring their Strategic Plan to center stage as they discuss the fine points today during a retreat and then take their message to High Point University on Tuesday. The plan will be one of several items the Guilford County Board of Education will discuss during the retreat session in Greensboro.

District leaders launched the five-year plan a year ago to guide the district in school reform efforts. The theme of the plan is excellence in all areas, including academics, character development and operations. The plan offers a 31⁄2-year road map with strategies designed to boost student achievement, increase family and community involvement, improve district service, increase the teacher retention rate and improve school safety and discipline.

All strategies are based on measurable goals. District leaders will host a “State of Our Schools” address at HPU to update the community on reform progress and initiatives. Business and community leaders, elected officials, parents, school volunteers, students and employees have been invited. During the address, Superintendent Mo Green will discuss upcoming initiatives scheduled to start by 2012 and will call on students to help tell the district’s story.

“Who better to tell the story of our schools, particularly our students, than those who are in our schools every day, those who we are trying to reach through this strategic plan,” Green said. “I am extremely proud of our students, and I am honored that some of them will be joining me on stage.” Green also has encouraged the community to take an active role in school reforms. dnivens@hpe.com | 888-3626

JAMESTOWN – Guilford Technical Community College police on Friday continued to investigate a reported sexual assault on the Jamestown campus earlier this week. GTCC officials said a female student reported she was attacked in the parking lot around 8 a.m. Wednesday. GTCC police believe the reported assault was not a random act and may have involved someone who is known to the alleged victim. “The campus police do say they are looking at a person or possible persons of interest,” said GTCC spokesman Bob Burchette. “They do think possibly they have a lead on a person, and it’s not just a random act. “We don’t want to create a fear that there is some sexual pervert roaming our campus attacking young ladies.” The alleged victim filed a report with campus police Wednesday and went to a local hospital, where police interviewed her. The college sent an e-mail to its nearly 14,000 students about the reported assault asking them to report any information about the incident to campus police, who are all sworn officers with full arrest and investigative powers. Burchette said some of the news coverage about the episode had misstated the nature of the allegation made by the student. “She didn’t say she was raped. She said she was sexually assaulted,” he said. “Some of the stories have been using the word ‘raped,’ and that hasn’t been in our vocabulary of what we’ve released.” In the aftermath of the incident, campus police stepped up patrols in parking lots and urged students to be cautious of their surroundings. Burchette said what little crime there is on GTCC’s four campuses is usually no more serious than vandalism to vending machines. “This is a rare thing for this campus or anywhere on Guilford Tech,” he said. pkimbrough@hpe.com | 888-3531

Student, mentor get rare invite BY DAVID NIVENS ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – How many people visit with the president at the White House and march through Washington, D.C., to remember the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. in the same week? Caleb Collins, a T.W. Andrews High School senior, experienced all of that this week as part of National Mentoring Month activities. With him was Michael Cook, an Andrews High teacher and coach and Collins’ mentor. Collins had visited the nation’s capital before with a Pen or Pencil group. “But I never thought I’d get inside the White House,” Collins said Friday. “I had wondered what it was like inside.” The Obamas spoke about challenges they faced in their youth and their solid commitment to the benefits of mentoring in a child’s life. “It was an overwhelming experience to hear his talk to us,” Collins said. “He had great words for what he had to say. Just the week before, I was thinking about what it

At-risk youth: The Pen or Pencil Movement of the National Alliance of Faith and Justice (NAFJ) is a social action and educational movement designed to influence the lives of youth at greatest risk of academic failure in grades 5 and higher. “Pen” is short for penitentiary, while “Pencil” refers to education. Curriculum: The program offers heightened awareness by cultivating resilience through a variety of exercises and approaches using eight of 10 thematic strands of the National Standards for the Social Studies.

meant to have a black president. It was so amazing.” Addie Richburg, president of the National Alliance of Faith and Justice and founder of Pen or Pencil, offered the invitation to Collins and his mentor to be the guests of the Obamas on the one year anniversary of the Obama administration. Collins has been involved with the group since 10th grade and was instrumen-

tal in starting the MOVE (Men of Valor Excelling) chapter at Andrews. The Pen or Pencil Initiative started in High Point in 2007 at Central High School by Communities in Schools High Point. Since then, hundreds of students from both Central and Andrews high schools have participated. Collins credited his football coach with helping him follow a more disciplined path. “He made me grow up,” Collins said, “and put me in a place where I had to make decisions. That had an impact on me. He told us we should be the best we can be.” Collins participated in the March on Washington for Mentors and No Violence to mark the beginning of the 2010 Pen or Pencil SNCC (Student Nonviolence Coordinating Committee) 50th Anniversary Semester of Service. Collins helped the group remember King’s historic “I Have A Dream,” speech. He read his poem “I Have A Dream Too.” “I got to stand where Dr. King gave his speech,” Collins said. dnivens@hpe.com | 888-3626

Peanuts taste good and are nutritional I

f you happen to be among the lucky ones not to have a peanut allergy, you know the delicious way that peanuts can augment your diet to provide another source of vitamins, minerals and protein. My three favorite ways to eat peanuts are roasted, boiled and as peanut butter. For a snack between meals, peanut butter spread on sliced bread with slices of a ripe banana placed directly on the peanut butter and covered with another slice of bread is mouth watering. I havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t yet mastered the famous Elvis fried peanut butter-banana sandwich though. Agricultural Research Service (ARS) scientists have shown that increasing roast color intensity steadily ramps up the antioxidant capacities of peanuts, peanut flour and peanut skins. The study was conducted by food technologist Jack P. Davis and his colleagues in the ARS Market Quality and Handling Research Unit in Raleigh. According to the recent news release, dark-roasting consistently increased water- and oilsoluble antioxidant capacities for both commercially available peanut flours and blanched peanuts. Peanut skins, cur-

rently considered a waste product of industrial peanut processing, had remarkably high antioxidant capacities across all roast condiECOLOGY tions. Vitamin E degradation Gwyn was most rapid Riddick in oil from lightly â&#x2013; â&#x2013; â&#x2013; roasted peanuts; however, oil from darker roasted peanuts had better vitamin E retention than that of lightly roasted or even raw peanuts. There are numerous varieties of peanuts grown in the United States. Some varieties are more suitable for green (boiled) peanuts, and others are best for dry peanut production (roasting or â&#x20AC;&#x153;parchingâ&#x20AC;?). The majority of peanuts are grown in a southeastern belt of the United States from Virginia to Texas. Deep, fine, sandy loam soils with good drainage are preferred for peanut production. Soil pH should be in the range of 5.8 to 6.2, and the soils should be easily tilled and should offer a moderately deep rooting zone for easy penetration by air, water and roots Virginia types â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Virginia

type peanuts are the best allaround choice for both boiling and roasting. These are the large podded â&#x20AC;&#x153;ballparkâ&#x20AC;? peanuts which are often sold in the shell. Virginia type peanuts have high yield and excellent flavor. This is the variety grown most in North Carolina and targeted primarily for the in-shell market. Valencia types â&#x20AC;&#x201C; For boiled peanuts, some consumers prefer the distinctive flavor, multi-kernel pod characteristics and red seed coat of Valencia type peanuts. These are the peanuts that often have 3 to 5 seeds per pod. In general, Valencia peanuts have a smaller kernel size and lower yield than Virginia types. To efficiently grow peanuts for a profitable crop, deep, fine, sandy loam soils with good drainage are preferred. Soil pH should be in the range of 5.8 to 6.2, and the soils should be easily tilled and should offer a moderately deep rooting zone for easy penetration by air, water, and roots. Here are some facts about peanut production from North Carolina State University: â&#x20AC;˘ North Carolina ranked fifth in the nation in peanut production in 2003. â&#x20AC;˘ North Carolina is the lead-

ing producer of Virginia-type peanuts. â&#x20AC;˘ North Carolina produced 7.7 percent of the total U. S. production in 2003. which amounted to 320 million pounds from 100,000 acres. â&#x20AC;˘ The average peanut yield in 2003 was 3,200 pounds per acre. â&#x20AC;˘ The value of the peanut crop in North Carolina in 2003 was $67,840,000. â&#x20AC;˘ Peanuts are grown in more than 22 North Carolina counties. â&#x20AC;˘ Most production occurs in nine counties in the northeastern part of the state, although significant production occurs in southeastern North Carolina. â&#x20AC;˘ According to the North Carolina Peanut Growers Association, peanut oil can be used in detergent, salves, metal polish, bleach, ink, axle grease, shaving cream, face creams, soap, linoleum, rubber, cosmetics, paint, explosives, shampoo and medicine. â&#x20AC;˘ Dr. George Washington Carver is often considered to be the primary scientist credited with development of new food and non-food uses for the peanut in the early 1900â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s. He discovered more than 300 new uses for the legume.

If he canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t put a stop to it, the next time his mother gives you a hard time, try this: Tell her you are stuffed and ask if you can please take home a doggie bag because her cooking is so delicious. Dear Abby: I was poking around your Web site recently, and while looking through the archives I read your columns featuring names for people in various professions like the urologist named Dr. Leake and the dentist named Dr. Payne.

PET OF THE WEEK

Chatty churchgoers disrupt sanctuaryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s air of reverence ear Abby: Last Sunday, I attended a church service, and the woman and her adult daughter seated behind me would not shut their mouths. All I could hear was the two of them catching up on the weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gossip. The 5-year-old granddaughter also talked the whole time. I scooted as far over in the pew as possible to avoid hearing the conversation. I go to church for peace, quiet and reflection, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s frustrating to hear constant chatter. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m glad they come to church, but I wish their idea of â&#x20AC;&#x153;fellowshipâ&#x20AC;? extended beyond visiting with each other. Would it be rude to turn around and ask these people to be quiet? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Praying For Silence, Mount Vernon, Ohio

According to the American Peanut Council, a non-profit organization created to promote peanuts as a source of nutrition, peanuts and peanut butter are among Americaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most popular foods. Americans consume more than 6 pounds of peanuts and peanut products each year. â&#x20AC;˘ No one knows why some Southerners started boiling peanuts before eating them, but people will tell you it is an acquired taste from Virginia to northern Florida. After boiling, the peanuts take on a fresh legume taste. Boiled Peanut Recipe: Fill a 6-quart pan 3â &#x201E;4 full with peanuts, cover with water, and add 1â &#x201E;4 cup of salt. Boil for 1Â˝ hrs. with occasional stirring. Let cool, drain and enjoy. The longer they cool in the water, the saltier they get.

TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES

At the 2009 World Championships, England played with heart to win the d’Orsi Senior Bowl, beating Poland in the final. A U.S. team (Lynch, Berkowitz, Gerstman, Lair, Passell, Sutherlin) had met the Poles in the semifinals. In today’s deal Poland’s NorthSouth played at 3NT by North. East led the queen of spades. East had doubled a spade bid by North but had not bid, so North placed East with long spades but few high cards. North took the ace, led a club to dummy’s ace, returned a heart to his king and forced out the king of clubs, making three.

DAMAGING LEAD In the replay the U.S. reached 3NT by South, and West led a damaging jack of diamonds. South won and led the ten of hearts: three, king. He then set up the clubs for nine tricks. But if West correctly grabs the first heart to continue diamonds, South fails. Poland won the match, 273 to 246. That may have dismayed Carolyn Lynch, the U.S. team’s playing sponsor. Her team had

---

been leading when she completed her play.

DAILY QUESTION You hold: S A K 3 H K Q 8 6 5 D 7 C J 8 4 3. You open one heart, and your partner bids one spade. What do you say? ANSWER: This hand is a minimum in high cards, worth only one more constructive bid. Raise to two spades. If you bid two clubs, and partner next bids 2NT or two hearts, you’ll lack the values for a third bid and may miss a good trump fit. With A K 3, K Q 8 6 5, 7, K 8 4 3 you could try two clubs, planning to support the spades next. East dealer N-S vulnerable

ONE STAR: It’s best to avoid conflicts; work behind the scenes or read a good book. Two stars: You can accomplish but don’t rely on others for help. Three stars: If you focus, you will reach your goals. Four stars: You can pretty much do as you please, a good time to start new projects. Five stars: Nothing can stop you now. Go for the gold.

If I stop for a few seconds, I can go on again. Please advise. – L.H. I need a clearer description of what you mean by “spasm.” I take it to mean calf pain. If that is the case, I suspect you have peripheral artery disease. It’s pain that comes with a predictable amount of exercise (your half a block) and leaves when you take a short rest. Not enough blood gets to your calf muscles to support the effort of walking. There’s a partial blockage in a main leg artery. See your doctor. The doctor can determine if there’s a blockage with a few simple office tests. DR.

HPCA girls top Westchester BY DANIEL KENNEDY SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE

HIGH POINT – For a team with just four upperclassmen, the girls at High Point Christian Academy showed a great deal of poise Friday night. Despite a furious rally by Westchester Country Day School in the third quarter, the Cougars were able to nurse a five-point lead into the fourth quarter and then put the Wildcats away to secure a 48-35 road victory. “We didn’t lose our cool,” Cougars coach Pattie Nance said. “When they came back, we did a great job (adjusting). I was very proud of them.” Westchester (4-10, 1-4 Triad Athletic) emerged from the locker room recharged after plodding through a sluggish first half. The sudden burst of energy resulted in a bevy of miscues from HPCA, which finished the game with 21 turnovers. Amber Hayes and Carson Thorn, who finished with 11 and nine points, respectively, powered the Wildcat offense to cut the

margin to two before the Cougars’ Courtney Callicutt drilled a 3-pointer in the closing minute of the third to give HPCA a 38-33 lead. Callicutt finished with a game-high 14 points. The Wildcats were largely effective in their half-court sets. Westchester’s troubles came not with running its offense, but with hanging onto the basketball long enough to execute. The team committed 27 turnovers in all, 17 of which came in the first two quarters. “We beat ourselves,” Wildcats coach Sherry Lawson Ingram said. “We kept throwing the ball away in transition. You’re never going to win throwing the ball away. It’s frustrating.” The Cougar frontcourt – spearheaded by Tara Moseley and Kathryn Cox – established a significant advantage on the offensive boards. Moseley had 10 points, while Cox pitched in four points, seven rebounds and four steals. “Our rebounding was really good for us,” Nance

Pack’s White sinks Deacons at the buzzer SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE

RALEIGH – Amber White admitted she didn’t even see the basket when she lofted a buzzer-beating jumper to lift N.C. State to a stunning 51-49 victory over Wake Forest Friday evening at Reynolds Coliseum. State (12-7, 2-2 ACC) came out of a timeout and tied the game 49-all when Nikitta Gartrell (10 points) drained a 3pointer against Wake with 15 seconds left. After a timeout by the Demon Deacons, Brooke Thomas rushed a jumper that was hauled in by Gartrell. That led to White driving towards the baseline and floated a “prayer” that was answered as time expired. The victory puts the Wolfpack in the thick of the ACC race a third of the way though the league with a five-way tie at 2-2. Former Thomasville High School star Secily Ray (20 points) put the Deacs up 49-46 with a layup at the 1:11 mark, but Gartrell answered with the three for the tie. Bonae Holston led State with 15 points, while Gartrell and White added 10 apiece.

SPORTS THE HIGH POINT ENTERPRISE SATURDAY, JANUARY 23, 2010 www.hpe.com

Panther women shift focus vs. Presbyterian HIGH POINT â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Tooey Loyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s team wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be worrying about Presbyterian this evening, but it has nothing to do with the Blue Hoseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 2-14 record. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The focus will be on ourselves,â&#x20AC;? said the High Point University womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s basketball coach. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t thought weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve played very good the last couple games. Our focus will be more that we play a really good basketball game and get back to doing what we need to do to be really good.â&#x20AC;? The Panthers (11-7, 4-1 Big South) own wins in seven of their last eight games, but Loy said his team hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been sharp offensively or defensively both in victory and in that one defeat at GardnerWebb 12 days ago. â&#x20AC;&#x153;With where weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re trying to get as a program and a team â&#x20AC;&#x201C; to be a championship team, that same team that beat Florida in their own tournament â&#x20AC;&#x201C; weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to be focused every night and for every minute, be as good we can be no matter who weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re playing,â&#x20AC;? Loy said. And that certainly includes Presbyterian, which has wins over South Carolina State and UNC Asheville this season after going 4-25 in last seasonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first of-

ficial run with the Big South. Center Mariah Pietrowski is the lone PC player scoring in double figures and has been named Big South Freshman of the Week three times already this year. For all the overwhelming stats pointing to a High Point win, Loy compared todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 5 p.m. contest with a game against Longwood a month ago. The Panthers dropped that one 76-68. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The thing a lot of people donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t understand about Division I is everybody gives full scholarships,â&#x20AC;? Loy explained. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If any coach is giving somebody a free education, they think that kid can play a little bit. Anybody in Division I is good enough to beat anybody else in Division I.â&#x20AC;? Loy said junior forward Mackenzie Maier enjoyed the best game of her HPU career last Saturday in a 69-60 win over Winthrop. Maier tallied 22 points, nine rebounds and seven blocks. Now averaging 2.7 blocks per game, the 6-foot-3 Maier ranks first in the Big South and 14th in the nation in that category. Following a trip Monday to Asheville, High Point entertains Liberty next Saturday at 4 p.m. in a game that figures to be for first place in the Big South. shanf@hpe.com | 888-3526

Duke, Clemson meet again BY BRYAN STRICKLAND ENTERPRISE DURHAM BUREAU

DURHAM â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t Duke and Clemson just play each other? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pretty odd,â&#x20AC;? said Duke senior Brian Zoubek, whose Blue Devils visit Littlejohn Coliseum tonight (9 p.m., ESPN), just 20 days after downing Clemson in the ACC opener for both teams. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tough. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be tough to beat them with so short of a turnaround, especially at their place. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But I think we have the motivation and the drive we need to beat them. Also, we know what we need to do gameplan-wise because we played them just a little while ago.â&#x20AC;?

The motivation for the No. 7 Blue Devils (15-3, 32 ACC) is obvious. In addition to wanting to stay near the top in the ACC race, Duke enters play with an 0-3 record in road games. Also, their most recent road trip to Clemson was memorable for all the wrong reasons â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a stunning 74-47 loss. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hard not to remember something like that,â&#x20AC;? Zoubek said. The Tigers (15-4, 3-2) will be plenty motivated as well, having fallen hard 74-53 at Duke on Jan. 3. Depending on what happens in the game between Virginia (3-0) and Wake Forest earlier in the day in Winston-Salem, tonightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s loser could find itself three

games back of the Cavaliers in the loss column. Then again, tonightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s winner could close within one game of first place in the loss column if the Cavs stumble. Believe it or not, there already has been one ACC rematch at this early juncture in the season, though the meetings between Boston College and Miami were spaced farther apart. The teams faced off in the first ACC game of the season on Dec. 6 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a full two weeks before the second ACC game â&#x20AC;&#x201C; then played again on Tuesday. Florida State and Georgia Tech will meet for the second time on Sunday, though their first meeting was more than a month ago as well, on Dec. 20.

The former pitcher agreed to a $3.25 million, one-year contract with the Royals on Friday, a person familiar with the negotiations told The Associated Press. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the deal, which is subject to a physical, had not yet been announced. Also Friday, right-hander Vicente Padilla decided to stay with the Los Angeles Dodgers after his outstanding perfor-

mance down the stretch last season. Catcher Bengie Molina and the Giants completed a $4.5 million, one-year contract that brings the veteran catcher back to San Francisco. Unable to find regular playing time for Gary Matthews Jr., the Los Angeles Angels traded the outfielder to the New York Mets on Friday and agreed to pay $21.5 million as part of the deal. Los Angeles received right-handed reliever Brian Stokes, a native Californian, in exchange for Matthews, who had slumped for three straight seasons since signing a $50 million, five-year contract.

Ruffin McNeill, new head football coach at East Carolina, pumps his fist as Chancellor Steve Ballard smiles during a news conference in Greenville on Friday.

McNeill takes over at alma mater GREENVILLE (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Ruffin McNeill didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t say a word. He just walked into the room filled with reporters and fans waiting to hear from East Carolinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new coach and repeatedly pumped his right fist in the air. He was home, back at his alma mater and in his native North Carolina. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is my destination job,â&#x20AC;? McNeill said Friday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s get that out front right now. This is not a stepping-stone hop for Ruff. This is where I want to be until you tow me away from here. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have to drag me away.â&#x20AC;? The school held a news conference for McNeill, who was hired this week after Skip Holtz left to take over at South Florida after five seasons here. The 51-year-old spent the past 10 seasons as an assistant at Texas Tech, where he served as defensive coordinator and took over as interim coach when Mike Leach was suspended then fired just before the Alamo Bowl. A formal contract hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been signed and wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be approved until the schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s trustees meet next month. Instead, the two sides are operating under an outline for a five-year deal that could pay him $1 million per season with benchmarks for season-ticket sales, fundraising and academics. There is also a $50,000 bonus if East Carolina reaches the Conference USA championship game, $100,000 if the Pirates win that game, and $50,000 if the Pirates win the bowl game following a league title. McNeill â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a Lumberton native with 24 seasons in college coaching, but none as a full-time head coach â&#x20AC;&#x201C; inherits a program that has been to four straight bowl games and has won consecutive

C-USA championships, a record of success that McNeill must maintain if he plans to stick around as long as he wants. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also a program with a unique set of challenges, from fighting for headlines in a state dominated by Atlantic Coast Conference programs like North Carolina and N.C. State to a perennially challenging nonconference schedule. In addition, East Carolina has broken ground on an expansion to DowdyFicklen Stadium, meaning McNeill will have to put a winning team on the field to maintain ticket demand. Not to mention hire a staff and maintain most of the programâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s recruiting commitments with less than two weeks left until national signing day. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a fun challenge,â&#x20AC;? McNeill said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nothing intimidating or hard about this.â&#x20AC;? Athletic director Terry Holland had said he preferred to hire someone with head-coaching experience. One of his top targets was Middle Tennesseeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Rick Stockstill, who announced earlier this week he was withdrawing his name from consideration due to the short time before national signing day next month. Holland said he spoke with seven candidates about the job and had four come to campus. But McNeillâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s experience as assistant head coach at Texas Tech was â&#x20AC;&#x153;very unique,â&#x20AC;? highlighted by his leading the Red Raiders to a win against Michigan State in the Alamo Bowl just days after Leach was fired. McNeill met with the players after the school announced his hiring Thursday night.

Watson swims ahead at Hope Classic THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LA QUINTA, Calif. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Long-hitting Bubba Watson is using the wet weather to his advantage in the Bob Hope Classic. Watson shot a 10-under 62 on Friday to take a two-stroke lead over Alex Prugh after the second round, which began and ended in driving rain. The storm wiped out play Thursday and threatened Friday in the fiveround, four-course event. There were just enough hours in between for an impressive day by Watson. First-round leader Steve Bertsch was three strokes back with three others at 13 under.

New Zealandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Anthony Doyle was in second after a 69 Friday.

THORPE SENTENCED TO 1-YEAR PRISON TERM

ORLANDO, Fla. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Professional golfer Jim Thorpe has been sentenced to a year in prison for failing to pay more than $2 million in income taxes.

Isner, Roddick only U.S. men left at Aussie Open land this month, the big-serving Isner defeated 12th-seeded Gael Monfils of France 6-1, 4-6, 7-6 (4), 7-6 (5). Until he defeated Roddick in the third round at the U.S. Open, Isner hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t gotten past the first round of his last five majors. But his strong performance at Melbourne Park doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t surprise him.

MELBOURNE, Australia (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; John Isner is one of two American men standing at the Australian Open. Greensboroâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Isner advanced to the fourth round along with Andy Roddick. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only the second time the 24-year-old player has gone that far at a Grand Slam.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve worked hard in the offseason, I put in the time,â&#x20AC;? said Isner, ranked 28th. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I kind of deserve to be where I am now.â&#x20AC;? Andy Murray, who faces Isner, said he may have the best serve on the tour. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 6-foot, 9-inches of headaches,â&#x20AC;? Murray said. Roddick advanced with a 6-7 (4), 6-4, 6-4, 7-6 (3) over Feliciano Lopez of Spain.

Whopper Bar to sell beer with BK burgers MIAMI BEACH, Fla. – Burger King is opening a restaurant in Miami Beach that will serve beer along with burgers and fries, the chain’s first U.S. location with alcohol. At the Whopper Bar South Beach, guests can pair a Whopper sandwich with Anheuser-Busch and MillerCoors brews. With fries, the combo will run $7.99. It’s scheduled to open mid-February.

Feds file antitrust suit against Dean Foods WASHINGTON – The Justice Department has filed an antitrust lawsuit against Dean Foods Co., saying a recent acquisition has spoiled a regional market for milk. The lawsuit says Dean’s 2009 acquisition of Foremost Farms USA’s Consumer Products Division eliminates substantial competition in the sale of milk to schools, groceries, and convenience stories in Illinois, Michigan, and Wisconsin.

Metals fall as China’s demand slows NEW YORK – Metals prices are tumbling again Friday as traders remain concerned about a potential drop in Chinese demand and uncertainty surrounding monetary policy in the U.S. The dollar is one of the primary drivers of commodities prices, especially gold.

ful recession. Overall revenue fell 10 percent in the quarter to $41 billion and orders totaled $22 billion. The big GE Capital finance unit – the source of most of GE’s problems in 2009 – squeezed out a modest profit in the fourth quarter. But it was still dogged by problems in its holdings and lending in commercial real estate. GE Capital’s $336 million in overall earnings dropped 67 percent from a year earlier. For the quarter, GE posted net income of $2.94 billion, or 28 cents per share. That compared with $3.65 billion, or 35 cents, a year earlier. Analysts expected 26 cents per share in earnings.

Obama urges Congress to pass jobs bill ELYRIA, Ohio (AP) – A combative President Barack Obama exhorted Congress Friday to pass a new job-creation bill, taking a populist appeal to America’s recessionracked Rust Belt in hopes of recapturing the energy of his campaign and moving his presidency beyond this week’s blows. Obama weaved angry us-against-them rhetoric throughout the day, telling a town hall audience that he “will never stop fighting” for an economy

that works for the hardworking, not just those already well off. “This isn’t about me. This is about you,” Obama shouted in a rousing defense of his presidency and not-so-subtle slaps at his critics. “I think that I win when you win. That’s how I think about it.” He said a jobs bill emerging in Congress must include tax breaks for small business hiring and for people trying to make their homes more energy efficient – two proposals he wasn’t able to get

into a bill the House passed last month. And he used the word “fight” or some variation of it well over a dozen times. The House-passed $174 billion stimulus package faces a stern test in the Senate, in part because it is financed with deficit spending. “Folks have seen jobs you thought would last forever disappear. You’ve seen plants close and businesses shut down,” Obama said. He promised to help. “I won’t stop fighting for you,” he said. “I’ll take my lumps.”

Bernanke faces more Senate opposition WASHINGTON (AP) – Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke faced mounting Senate opposition for another four-year term Friday, even as the White House described President Barack Obama as confident about his confirmation. Sen. Barbara Boxer of California announced she’ll vote against Bernanke, adding another Democrat to the ranks of those arrayed against Bernanke. “It is time for a change – it is time for Main Street to have a champion

DILBERT

at the Fed,” she said. D e m o cratic Sens. Russ Feingold of Wisconsin Bernanke and Bryon Dorgan of North Dakota also said they’ll oppose Bernanke on the Senate floor. Feingold faults Bernanke for missing a high-risk culture at financial companies that led to a near economic meltdown late last year. Dorgan also is

upset that the Fed has kept secret the identities of firms that drew emergency loans from the Fed. Deputy press secretary Bill Burton, talking to reporters as Obama headed to Ohio Friday, said the president has “a great deal of confidence” in the actions Bernanke already has taken and believes he’s “the best person for the job.” Burton said the White House still believes that Bernanke, 56, will get enough votes in the Senate to be reappointed to the post.

Gas prices down 7 straight days NEW YORK (AP) – Gasoline prices have declined every day for a week following a similar slide in crude prices this month. But with the national average at nearly $2.73 a gallon on Friday, pump prices are still more expensive than any day last year. They’ve ridden a 10-month rally in energy commodities that doubled oil prices to nearly $80 a barrel by the end of last year. Experts say they still expect gas prices to reach $3 a gallon sometime this

spring, though it may take longer than originally expected. Oil prices tumbled again Friday, as Wall Street dropped for a third consecutive session. Benchmark crude for March delivery lost $1.54 to settle at $74.54 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. The slide in oil prices this month has pulled down gas prices, as weekly government reports showed the country hasn’t regained its appetite for petroleum.

6-year-old swept away in flood presumed dead

BUSINESS

---

A real estate signs stands at Cook Auto, a former Chrysler Dodge Jeep dealer in Little Rock, Ark., Thursday. The American Arbitration Association says 21 percent of GM and Chrysler dealers being shut down have appealed the automakers’ decision to close them.

More than 900 car dealers try to get businesses back DETROIT (AP) – Michael Wolf is taking a big gamble that he can convince an arbitrator to give him back his Chrysler-Jeep dealership. He’s among more than 900 car dealers nationwide who have signed up to appeal decisions by General Motors Co. or Chrysler Group LLC to revoke their franchise agreements and shut them down. Wolf and his wife have owned Wolf Motor Car Co. for 22 years in Plymouth, Wis., halfway between Milwaukee and Green Bay. But inexplicably to him, his business was one of 789 nationwide that Chrysler forced to close last June while it was going through bankruptcy protection.

GM wants to close 2,000 dealers by October of this year, but 700 of those will remain open because the automaker allowed them to keep selling some of the company’s brands while taking away others. Both companies say the closed dealers weren’t performing well, and they need to make the cuts to keep the remaining ones healthy so they can invest in better showrooms and more advertising to boost sales. Many dealers were in locations away from where customers now shop, work or live. But the politically connected dealers said the companies unfairly took businesses that were in their families for genera-

tions, and they persuaded Congress to pass a law requiring binding arbitration. The American Arbitration Association, which will handle the hearings, says 32 percent of the closed dealers filed appeal paperwork by Friday afternoon. The rest have until midnight Monday to file. When Chrysler took Wolf’s franchises in June, his family kept the dealership open by selling used cars and with its repair service. They joined a group of Wisconsin dealers who took Chrysler to federal court, saying that state law protected them from being severed from the company. The appeal is pending in New York.

FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. (AP) – A 6-yearold boy who was swept away in floodwaters near the northern Arizona community of Mayer is presumed dead, as searchers tried to locate his body on Friday. David and Katrina Baudek loaded their two children, Jacob and Desiree, into a pickup truck late Thursday during a powerful winter storm, trying to get their sick son to a hospital, said Yavapai County Sheriff’s Office spokesman Dwight D’Evelyn. They left their home about 70 miles north of Phoenix and headed out on a dirt road that normally is passable. Tributaries of the nearby Agua Fria River had already flooded local roads, and when the Baudeks tried to cross one of them, their truck got stuck in the water and was swept off the road. Katrina Baudek escaped to higher ground as her husband moved the two

Crew rescues dog from river LOS ANGELES (AP) – A helicopter has hoisted a dog to safety after being stranded more than an hour in the Los Angeles River. A firefighter deployed on a harness grabbed the dog from the water and held tight Friday as the helicopter brought them to a nearby overpass. City fire spokesman Erik Scott says at least 50 firefighters responded to a report of a dog in the storm-swollen river at about 11:20 a.m. The dog tried to scramble up the steep concrete sides for more than an hour as crews dangled life vests and a float ring from above.

children into the truck’s bed for safety. A witness nearby heard the commotion and threw the father a rope while someone called for help, D’Evelyn said. As rescue crews arrived, the floodwaters rose and swept David Baudek and his children from the truck bed. The father managed to get to safety with his daughter, but the boy remained missing. D’Evelyn said the body could have been carried miles away and he is presumed dead. Two swift-water rescuers from the Central Yavapai Fire District had jumped in the water to search for the boy, said Assistant Chief Charlie Cook. Tied together, the rescuers swept back and forth across the rushing water but came up empty, he said. Rescuers battled severe wind gusts and sheets of horizontal rain, as the survivors looked on.

Mercedes-Benz E-Class coupe name returns ANN M. JOB THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NUTS & BOLTS

–

It’s a Mercedes-Benz tradition to use letter and number combinations for car names. But somewhere along the line there came to be too many models starting with the letter “C.” So, the Mercedes CLK coupe disappears for 2010 and is now the refined and comfortable E-Class Coupe, with new styling and features that tie it to the long-popular Mercedes E-Class sedans. Evidently, there’s no problem with expanding the number of cars using the letter “E.” With the same V-6 and V-8 engines that are in the E-Class sedans, the E-Class coupes are pretty looking models with a roomier back seat – sculpted for just two people – and more trunk space than you’d expect. Surprisingly, the 2010 coupes have slightly lower starting retail prices than their 2010 sedan counterparts and are lower in price than the 2009 CLK350 and CLK550 that they replace. But they’re still not bargains in the luxury coupe segment. Specifically, starting manufacturer’s suggested retail price, including des-

This is $550 less than the starting retail price for an E350 sedan with same 3.5-liter V-6 and same 268 horses. The new-for-2010, V-8powered E550 Coupe with 382 horsepower and an

automatic transmission starts at $55,525. This is $1,950 less than the E550 sedan with same powertrain. Note that the EClass sedans are available with all-wheel drive, but the 2010 coupes are not. Competitors include the 2010 Infiniti G37 coupe, which starts much lower, at $36,915 with auto-

$44,825. All-wheel drive is standard on the A5. Despite the name, the E coupes aren’t sized like the mid-size E-Class sedans. While exterior metal links the coupe styling to the E-Class four doors, the coupes use parts of the smaller C-Class cars, too. So, the E350 and E550 coupes have the same
