MEET, GREET, EAT Taste of the Town feeds community while helping hospice care BY VICKI KNOPFLER ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

DON DAVIS JR. | HPE

Crowd at Tuesday’s Taste of the Town jam the lobby of Showplace.

HIGH POINT – It takes a lot of people to fill an entire floor of Showplace and a lot of cars to overflow surrounding parking areas. It also takes a special organization to draw such crowds, said many who attended Taste of the Town Tuesday night. For the event, restaurants donate food and their service, and patrons pay to sample a huge variety of food and drink. Groups and individuals also donate items for auction. All proceeds go toward patient care provided by Hospice of the Piedmont. High Point City Manager Strib Boynton

HPU moves up in college rankings BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – High Point University ranked third among comprehensive colleges in the South in a report released Tuesday by U.S. News & World Report. HPU was named No. 3 among comprehensive colleges in the South in “America’s Best Colleges” 2011 edition. Last year, High Point was listed at No. 5 in the same report, and four years ago, HPU occupied the No. 15 spot. “We are delighted to see High Point University skyrocketing in its rankings and be counted among other top colleges and universities in the nation,” HPU President Nido Qubein said. “Appearing on a list such as ‘America’s Best Colleges’ proves that we are truly doing extraordinary things on our campus – including growth in academics, student life and more.”

The U.S. News & World Report list, which is the most closely watched of a growing number of college rankings, is both credited for helping students and families sort through a dizzying college selection process and criticized by those who say it’s too arbitrary and pressures colleges to boost scores at the expense of improving teaching. A change in how rankings are determined led to some shifts in the magazine’s “Best Colleges” rankings, which examines more than 1,400 accredited four-year schools based on 16 factors. The rankings take into account factors such as SAT scores, selectivity, graduation and retention rates, alumni giving and peer reputation. This year, high school guidance counselors’ opinions were added to the mix. In the “Regional Colleges” category, HPU placed above all other schools in North Carolina and above all but two of the 96 colleges ranked

every single family,” he said. “It’s one of the most essential services to help people in times of need, and obviously this turnout is an indication of how much it’s valued.” Tony Griffey, a vocalist who performs internationally, was at his first Taste of the Town and was impressed with its magnitude. “I keep saying what an amazing event this is. It brings the community together,” he said. Griffey was reminded of the value of hospice care when he attended the funeral earlier in the day of Laura Morrow, a longtime nurse who herself became a hospice patient. “It’s such a wonderful and caring service they provide,” Griffey said. Crissie Harmon likely undertook one of the more difficult volunteer jobs at Taste of the Town. She was one of the co-chairwomen of the restaurant committee that’s in charge of all 63 restaurants and vendors – a record – that participated this

year. She also made and donated knitted items and jewelry for the auction. No matter how hectic and tiring her duties are, the effort is worth it, Harmon said. She learned the value of hospice care when her husband, Garry, died in 2003 and afterward, when she attended grief support group sessions. Harmon has volunteered for Hospice since 2004. “I listened to a nurse in the hospital who was a former hospice nurse who did more to prepare me for bringing him home before he passed away, and I realized how incredible valuable it was having those hospice nurses coming into your home, what an invaluable experience it is for the patient and the family. “And I know the proceeds for this event go directly for patient care.” Last year’s Taste of the Town attracted nearly 5,000 people and raised more than $130,000 for hospice care. vknopfler@hpe.com | 888-3601

Two zebras wander streets CARMICHAEL, Calif. (AP) – Two zebras are safe after a wild fivehour romp through the streets of a Northern California suburb over the weekend. The zebras were being loaded onto a truck Saturday evening in Carmichael, east of Sacramento, when they were spooked by dogs and went running in op-

posite directions. Confused residents reported zebra sightings throughout the downtown area until sheriff’s deputies were able to round them up. Bystanders helped corral one after it was hit by a car, suffering only a superficial cut. The second was found in an apartment complex’s pool.

Expert: Blood on crowbar from pregnant Marine GOLDSBORO (AP) – A North Carolina crime scene investigator testified Tuesday that she found no DNA evidence from a former Marine on a crowbar prosecutors say was used to kill his pregnant colleague. Special Agent Sharon R. Hinton, an expert in DNA analysis, testified Tuesday afternoon that a sample taken from a blood stain on the crowbar came from the victim, 20-year-old Lance Cpl. Maria Lauterbach of Vandalia, Ohio. But Hinton testified that she did not find DNA from suspect Cesar Laurean, 23, on the crowbar. She also tested it for DNA from Laurean’s wife, Christina Laurean, but could not determine if that was part of the mixture. District Attorney Dew-

ey Hudson told jurors last week an autopsy showed Lauterbach died from a blow to the head. During cross-examination, defense attorney Dick McNeil focused on the mixture of DNA samples on the handle of the crowbar, emphasizing through Hinton’s testimony that Cesar Laurean’s DNA was not present but his wife’s might have been. North Carolina law bars prosecutors from forcing Christina Laurean, also a Camp Lejeune Marine, to testify against her husband. Jurors were allowed to examine the crowbar. Cesar Laurean is charged with killing Lauterbach and burning her body in a firepit in the backyard of his home in December 2007.

Palestinian who attacked Turkish Embassy captured

Flood victims mob relief trucks SHIKARPUR, Pakistan (AP) – Victims of Pakistan’s deadly floods mobbed relief trucks carrying food Tuesday and authorities in the northwest warned of famine unless the region’s farmers got immediate help with planting new crops. The floods began three weeks ago, but there is little sign conditions are improving for some 20 million people – or one in nine Pakistanis – who are affected. Tens of thousands of villages remain under water, and officials feared that more flooding could be on the way.

TEL AVIV, Israel (AP) – A Palestinian who broke into the Turkish Embassy in Israel trying to take hostages and demanding asylum was turned over to Israeli authorities Tuesday, ending a tense standoff.

Seven hours after he forced his way into the embassy, the attacker was escorted out and put into an Israeli ambulance. Officials identified the attacker as Nadim Injaz from the West Bank town of Ramallah.

Girl in coma worst injured in Colombia crash BOGOTA, Colombia – An 11-year-old girl was in critical condition with a brain hemorrhage Tuesday, the worst injured survivor as investigators sought clues to why a jet carrying 131 people crashed while landing in a thunderstorm. Only one of those aboard died, while at least 20 people remained hospitalized from the accident Monday on the Colombian resort island of San Andres.

Kerry: Karzai must fight graft or lose support KABUL, Afghanistan – U.S. Sen. John Kerry told the president of Afghanistan on Tuesday that his efforts to battle corruption were crucial if he wants to retain the support of U.S. taxpayers at a time when more American troops are dying in the war. Kerry’s two meetings with President Hamid Karzai came at a time when U.S. lawmakers are increasingly doubtful the military effort can succeed without a serious campaign against bribery and graft that have eroded the Afghan people’s trust in their government.

Aid groups again denied Darfur camp access UNITED NATIONS – Sudanese authorities on Tuesday again prevented aid workers from entering a camp for 80,000 displaced people in South Darfur, a day after allowing a small group in for the first time in two weeks to deliver medicine and fuel to operate water pumps. United Nations deputy spokesman Farhan Haq said representatives of U.N. agencies and humanitarian organizations wanted to return to Kalma Camp to further assess conditions and additional humanitarian needs but were denied access.

The hottest summer since records began 130 years ago has sparked thousands of fires in Russia.

Mexico City mayor demands cardinal apologize MEXICO CITY – Mexico City’s leftist mayor said Tuesday he will take legal action if a Roman Catholic cardinal doesn’t apologize for suggesting he bribed the Supreme Court to uphold a city law allowing adoptions by same-sex couples.

UN gets ’evidence’ on Israel-Hariri link BEIRUT – Lebanon gave a U.N. tribunal on Tuesday material provided by Hezbollah to press its claim that Israel was linked to the 2005 assassination of former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Hariri. Israel has dismissed Iranian-backed Hezbollah’s repeated claims as “ridiculous.” U.N. investigators have been probing Hariri’s killing for years but have never pointed to possible Israeli involvement – which Hezbollah says is a sign of bias.

Bomber kills 61 Iraqi recruits BAGHDAD (AP) – Young men from some of Iraq’s poorest areas waited all night outside an army recruitment center, only to become easy prey Tuesday for a suicide bomber who killed 61 in the crowd. Desperate for jobs, dazed survivors rushed to get back in line after the attack. Officials quickly blamed al-Qaida for the deadliest single act of violence in the capital in months. Police said 125 people were wounded. Bodies of bloodied young men, some still clutching job applications in their hands, were scattered on the ground outside the headquarters’ gate. Soldiers collected bits of flesh and stray hands and legs as frantic Iraqis showed up to search for relatives.

Decree bans security firms in Afghanistan KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) – Afghan President Hamid Karzai issued a decree Tuesday ordering private security companies to disband by the end of the year, drawing a warning from the United States that the move could delay reconstruction and development assistance programs. The U.S. and its international partners rely heavily on private security contractors – both Afghan and foreign – to guard supply convoys and protect key installations and personnel.

Grain ban showcases Egypt’s love of bread CAIRO – Russia’s temporary ban on grain exports is stirring both political and economic anxiety in Egypt, the world’s largest wheat importer where half of the 80 million residents rely on subsidized bread to survive. Russia, which supplies more than 50 percent of Egypt’s wheat imports, had announced a temporary ban on grain exports earlier this month because of a drought. In addition, Ukraine on Tuesday said it plans to halve grain exports for the rest of the year.

Make the effort to rescue stray animals I seldom write to the editor of our local paper even though I read the Enterprise from “stem to stern” every morning. I will fight to the death anyone’s right to express his/her opinion, but the recent letter from the woman complaining about the High Point police officer’s statements in front of children over a stray puppy and the department’s response compel my response. First, the officer was correct in his/her statement that the puppy would be killed if sent to the animal shelter. Unless I’m mistaken, both Randolph and Guilford counties lack a no-kill, countyfunded animal shelter. Second, as I recall from the writer’s letter, there were several adults present when the officer was pleading his/her case for this hapless puppy. In front of children, I may add. Why did not one of the adults step up and offer to rescue the puppy, even if it meant taking it with the intention of finding it a good home? My husband and I have always had at least one animal in our home. Every animal has been either a stray or a rescue. We care for them deeply and responsibly. On the day that the police officer answered the call regarding the lost puppy, someone in that group missed an opportunity to adopt a sweet and loving animal. More importantly, they missed an opportunity presented to them by God to show not only compassion for the animal but also to show compassion and love for all creatures to their children. Don’t blame the police or the moon’s phase or the sun in the sky or any other external element

make it so,” and “I’ll fight to my death to defend this mosque.” That’s what would trouble her, and concern me. Could she defend the Constitution of the United States if things turned out a bit different? So when folks want to clean house, to “Bringback High Point” or “save America,” think about it. Do they really have an idea of what they are obligated to do, to run these governments? Anger and an inability to comprehend responsibilities, does not constitute leadership. Pray for peace.

What happens if the anti-incumbent wins seat? In a Your View letter on Aug. 9, Cathy Brewer Hinson showed her true soul.

Forsyth companies get chance

S

ome folks in Forsyth County are a bit perturbed, according to the Winston-Salem Journal, because Caterpillar Inc. compiled a short list of companies that are in the running to be chosen as the general contractor for its planned $426 million manufacturing plant, and none is based in Forsyth County. While Caterpillar won’t identify any of the companies or even reveal how many are on the short list, several companies – BE&K Building Group of Charlotte, Gray Construction of Lexington, Ky., and Walbridge (which has a branch in Charlotte) of Detroit confirmed they are competing for the general contract position, the Journal reported. Others listed as competing include Graycor Construction Co. of Chicago, Gilbane Building Co. of Rhode Island, JESCO Inc. of Mississippi and the tandem of Samet Corp. of Greensboro and Barton Malow of Michigan. There was some good news for locals in the Journal’s report: Companies based in Forsyth County will be considered for subcontractor work on the Caterpillar plant, including grading, utilities, electrical work, masonry, heating and ventilation. Forsyth countians shouldn’t complain too long or too loudly. Just as it is for those at the kids’ table when visiting with the rest of the extended family at grandmother’s for Thanksgiving, especially considering current economic conditions, a fairly good-sized piece of the pie is better than none.

On that day, she would publicly state “I, Cathy Brewer Hinson, do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies.” That would be a day to remember, not because of her newfound stature in this world, but another reason. She would find herself conflicted. Conflicted between the lifelong beliefs expressed in the letter, and her new found responsibilities to “defend the Constitution.” As a defender of that document, Hinson would have to come home and inform us constituents that the mosque has every right to be there in New York City, or anywhere else in this country.

the name of meeting “the needs of the times” – as they choose to define those needs. The first open attack on the Constitution by a president of the United States was made by our only president with a Ph.D., Woodrow Wilson. Virtually all OPINION the arguments as to why judges should not take the ConstituThomas tion as meaning what its words Sowell plainly say, but “interpret” it to ■■■ mean whatever it ought to mean, in order to meet “the needs of the times,” were made by Woodrow Wilson. It’s no coincidence those who imagine themselves much wiser and nobler than the rest of us should be in the forefront of those who seek to erode constitutional restrictions on arbitrary powers of government. How can our betters impose their superior wisdom and virtue on us, when the Constitution gets in the way at every turn, with all its provisions to safeguard a system based on a self-governing people? To get their way, the elites must erode or dismantle the Constitution, bit by bit, in one way or another. What that means is that they must dismantle America. This has been going on piecemeal over the years but now we have an administration in Washington that circumvents the Constitution wholesale, with its laws passed so fast that the public cannot know what is in them, its appointment of “czars” wielding greater power than Cabinet members, without having to be exposed to pubic scrutiny by going through the confirmation process prescribed by the Constitution for Cabinet members. Now there is leaked news of plans to change the immigration laws by administrative fiat, rather than congressional legislation, presumably because Congress might be unduly influenced by those pesky voters – with their constitutional rights – who have shown clearly that they do not want amnesty and open borders, despite however much our betters do. If the Obama administration gets away with this, and can add a few million illegals to the voting rolls in time for the 2012 elections, that can mean re-election, and with it a continuing and accelerating dismantling of America.

YOUR VIEW POLLS

America’s dismantling begins with Constitution’s erosion e the people” are the familiar opening words of the Constitution of the United States – the framework for a self-governing people, free from the arbitrary edicts of rulers. It was the blueprint for America, and the success of America made that blueprint something that other nations sought to follow. At the time when it was written, however, the Constitution was a radical departure from the autocratic governments of the 18th century. Since it was something so new and different, the reasons for the Constitution’s provisions were spelled out in “The Federalist,” a book written by three of the writers of the Constitution, as a sort of instruction guide to a new product. The Constitution was not only a challenge to the despotic governments of its time, it has been a continuing challenge – to this day – to all those who think that ordinary people should be ruled by their betters, whether an elite of blood, or of books or of whatever else gives people a puffed-up sense of importance. While the kings of old have faded into the mists of history, the principle of the divine rights of kings to impose whatever they wish on the masses lives on today in the rampaging presumptions of those who consider themselves anointed to impose their notions on others. The Constitution of the United States is the biggest single obstacle to the carrying out of such rampaging presumptions, so it is not surprising that those with such presumptions have led the way in denigrating, undermining and evading the Constitution. While various political leaders have, over the centuries, done things that violated either the spirit or the letter of the Constitution, few dared to openly say that the Constitution was wrong and that what they wanted was right. It was the Progressives of a hundred years ago who began saying that the Constitution needed to be subordinated to whatever they chose to call “the needs of the times.” Nor were they content to say that the Constitution needed more amendments, for that would have meant that the much disdained masses would have something to say about whether, or what kind, of amendments were needed. The agenda then, as now, has been for our betters to decide among themselves which Constitutional safeguards against arbitrary government power should be disregarded, in

s I chauffeured two 4-year-olds I was baby-sitting last week, I eavesdropped on several minutes of this whimsical car-seat humor. The two of them got me thinking as only children can. Strangely enough, they reminded me of my parents. It wasn’t the content of their jokes which evoked this comparison, but the reaction which infallibly followed the “punch-line:� a hearty, genuine laugh. The dozens of non sequiturs which the toddlers swapped made absolutely no sense to me. To them, however, these pearls of humor were worthy of being continued for days. The reason these exchanges reminded me of my parents was that I doubt the response would have been the same had a stranger told the jokes. They found the jokes amusing simply because they were so happy to be in each other’s presence. Unquestionably, my dad has a sense of humor sufficient enough to keep a stranger laughing for hours, maybe even weeks. But he’s been making my mom laugh for much longer than that – longer even than I’ve been alive. In fact, today is their 26th wedding anniversary. There are many things a lasting couple might attribute their longevity to. In my family, there is an unspoken adhesion which has always been the foundation for my parents’ relationship, as well as any household relationship: appreciation. Appreciation keeps my mother laughing at my father’s unending puns. Appreciation bestows upon my dad knowledge of all my mom’s favorites, from flowers to champagne, which he uses to unfailingly find the perfect present. Appreciation enables my siblings and me to take an interest in each other’s lives. Appreciation makes my household’s atmosphere more than

ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) – Gov.

Pooling resources City, banks may pony up funds to spark downtown business development BY PAT KIMBROUGH ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – The city has put together a public-private partnership aimed at spurring small business development in key revitalization areas. Next month, the City Council will consider final approval of a $9.7 million small business loan pool that will be comprised of federal funds and money from area banks. If approved, the pool would provide loans in the $50,000 to $300,000 range for start-up or expansion projects in City Project areas. “We will need solid business or developer prospects for the effort to succeed, and I’m optimistic that will happen,” City Manager Strib Boynton told council members Monday. “I’m just happy

we’ve got four to six banking partners who are willing to sign on the dotted line. Otherwise, we would not even be talking about this.” Access to credit has been a critical problem for prospective investors in the 11-square-mile City Project area targeted for revitalization. While the loan pool could mitigate this, officials tamped down expectations about the scale of the program. “It’s fairly limited. It’s not going to cure all the ills,” said Mike McNair, director of community development and housing for the city. City Project Executive Director Wendy Fuscoe said the program could be a boon to prospective businesses, including a bakery and dress shop, considering locating in the Uptowne area of N. Main

AT A GLANCE

Under the proposed small business loan pool, the city would commit $3.9 million in federal money to the program, while area banks would contribute $5.8 million. City officials said they plan to announce the participating banks when the City Council considers the loan pool at its meeting scheduled for Sept. 9. According to a draft summary of the loan pool, its purpose is to attract investment that will facilitate job growth and improve City Project areas. Permitted uses for the loans include acquisition, construction, enlargement, repair, reconstruction, reconditioning or rehabilitation of a qualifying property. Existing businesses could access the loan pool to improve their property, as well as new or relocating businesses. A committee of bank and city representatives will determine eligibility for the loans. Street, which has seen signs of an uptick in retail and restaurant development in recent months. Other cities have utilized similar initiatives with mixed results.

“Greensboro has this, and I think they did 10 (projects) with it in five or six years,” Fuscoe said. “So if we do three in two years, I think that would

be considered a success.” Council members questioned whether the loan pool would be geared toward property owners who wanted to improve their facilities as opposed to new or relocating businesses, which often are tenants. Other concerns had to do with the portion of the loan pool the city is putting forth, which it is borrowing from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. Fifty-thousand dollars “is a lot to hand somebody who has a concept, an idea. Not only is it the bank’s money, it’s our money,” said Councilwoman Bernita Sims. “If this is the route we’re going to go down, we need to have something in it (to protect the city from loan losses).”

The Blockbuster store at 209 Eastchester Drive is holding a sale prior to closing due to the chain’s financial woes. The store will close in September.

Blockbuster on Eastchester to close BY PAM HAYNES ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – A High Point Blockbuster store that dodged several rounds of store closings earlier this year is now included in the string of nationwide closures. The Blockbuster at 209 Eastchester Drive is holding a going-out-of-business sale and will close around the

middle of September, according to an employee at the store. Any customer service requests or questions about rentals will be handled at the Blockbuster at 1589 Skeet Club Road, which is not slated to close at this time. Blockbuster’s media relations said in April that the company had no plans to close either of the High Point stores, but the movie-rental chain was

continuing to evaluate its portfolio and would close about 900 stores in the remainder of the year. Winston-Salem, Thomasville and Lexington each saw a Blockbuster close at the beginning of the year. The company closed 374 stores across the country in 2009. Michelle Metzger, spokesperson for Blockbuster, told The High Point Enterprise

in April that each store is closed for different reasons. She couldn’t be reached for comment Tuesday. Blockbuster stores across the country have struggled to compete with online movie services like Netflix and movie rental kiosks such as Redbox. The company also announced earlier this year that it plans to have 10,000 of its own kiosks in place

by the end of the year. Yet it isn’t the only movierental chain that has struggled in the Triad. Movie Gallery stores in Archdale and Tyro closed about three months ago, and a Hollywood Video on N. Main Street in High Point closed in 2007 as a result of its parent company’s consolidation of store operations. phaynes@hpe.com | 888-3617

Local businesses join Groupon movement BY PAM HAYNES ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

TRIAD – Local businesses are catching the wave of a national coupon website that offers deals on local goods and services. The website, www.Groupon. com, splits profits with business owners who sell coupons, or “Groupons,” for one day on the site. For example, Emerywood Fine Foods on Lexington Avenue offered a $25 Groupon for $50 worth of food in June. Members of Groupon, who receive e-mail alerts from the company, purchase the deal online, print the Groupon and use it at the business. Owner Steve Shellberg said it

has brought in some extra traffic to the restaurant. “We were the first restaurant in High Point to use the site, so it was hard to tell what the outcome would be,” Shellberg said. “I don’t think many people were aware of it then, but we did have some response.” The website requires that the business sell a large quantity or group of the coupons, hence the name “Groupon.” According to Groupon.com, 35 people purchased Emerywood Fine Food’s deal. The Groupon also must be used in one visit. Groupons first became popular in larger cities but are spreading to smaller metropolitan areas like the Triad, according to a spokes-

person for the company. Deals at businesses such as spas in Winston-Salem and bowling alleys in Greensboro have popped up on the website this summer. Steak Street on Sedgebrook Street in High Point offered $40 worth of food for $20 earlier this month. Assistant general manager Chad Fields said Groupon.com contacted him about using the website, and its large member base – nearly 100,000 people in the Triad – made it seem like a good opportunity. “We sold 205 Groupons and have had 30 to 40 of the people who bought come in already,” Fields said. “If you can get 205 extra people in your doors, it’s definitely worth it.” Those in other parts of the

Triad, such as Greensboro Downtown Market owner Mike Causey, also say they’ve seen significant boosts in customer traffic when using the website. Causey offered $15 for $33 worth of food at his private farmer’s market on Aug. 13. He said representatives from the company told him that 250 Groupons were purchased within one hour of being posted to the website. “My only fear was what if all these people come here in at once?” he said. “But we’ve had steady traffic from it. Our sales increased about 40 percent over the last few days because of it.” phaynes@hpe.com | 888-3617

She used her anointed voice to minister at her home church, as well as at state and international conferences and churches throughout the community. She was recently featured as a soloist on the debut CD by contemporary gospel group, ChoZen.

Lynne Albright WINSTON-SALEM – Lynne Easter Albright, 68, passed away Monday, August 16, 2010, after a twomonth battle from a debilitating stroke. She was born September 30, 1941, in Trinity, NC to John C. and Louise Collett Easter. She graduated from Trinity High School and Appalachian State University. Lynne loved her family and her friends and never met a dog she didn’t like. She was at home whether canoeing the Okefenokee or polishing an English silver platter. She had the vision to see potential where others might not, whether in people like a curious 5-year old or in an antique linen or sideboard. Lynne began teaching kindergarten in Winston-Salem at First Baptist Church and then at Centenary Methodist Church. After that, she taught kindergarten for many years at Clemmons Elementary School where many students may remember her as the “Butterfly Lady.� She also served as president of the NC Kindergarten Association in the early seventies. After retiring from a career in teaching, she started Albright’s Antiques. She enjoyed the people and the

shows as much as treasure hunting and restoration. Surviving are her devoted husband, James (Jim) C. Albright, Sr., son Jim Albright, Jr., wife Robin Yontz and their two sons, Jacob and Blake; Son, Steve Albright and wife Joy Dai. She also leaves a sister Jan McDuffie (Dale) and nephew Damon McAdams and John C. Easter, Jr. (Mary, deceased) and nephew Jeffrey Easter. The family would like to invite Lynne’s friends and students for a celebration of her life at HayworthMiller Funeral Home on Silas Creek Parkway this Friday evening from 6:00 to 9:00 p.m. The Albright family would like to extend their sincerest gratitude to Forsyth Hospital’s neurological team as well as the doctors and nurses of the Select Specialty Hospital on the sixth floor. The compassion shown Lynne went well beyond care into love. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to the Forsyth Humane Society of WinstonSalem, 61 Miller Street, W-S, NC 27104.

Driver in fatal wreck dies BY PAT KIMBROUGH ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – A second person died from injuries suffered in a traffic accident in the city last week, police announced Tuesday. Andrew Wade Smith, 25, of Player Drive, High Point, died Tuesday morning at Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center, according to High Point police. Smith was driving a 1996 Dodge Ram pickup truck on Aug. 10 that ran off N. College Drive near High Point University and struck a utility pole and fence, police said. The truck’s passenger and only other occupant, Steven Zachary Rogers, was killed in the accident. Rogers, 17, of Guilford College Road, Jamestown, was a rising senior at Southwest Guilford High School. Police said they suspected that speed and alcohol were factors in the crash, but no charges will be filed. The truck was going an estimated 90 mph on N. College Drive

Accreditation agency reviews Wake County School system RALEIGH (AP) – An agency that accredits high schools in a North Carolina county is sending a special review team to assess recent changes in the school system. AdvanceED said in a letter to the Wake County school district that it wants to determine whether the changes are

negatively impacting the ability of schools to meet standards. The agency is asking for details about the district’s controversial proposal to move away from a diversity policy toward neighborhood schools. The review comes in response to a complaint filed earlier this year

by the North Carolina chapter of the NAACP. The NAACP has accused the school board of harboring “racist attitudes,� something board members vehemently deny. Schools spokesman Michael Evans said the district is compiling documentation for AdvanceED.

Adult daughter’s bedroom antics displease her mom

D

ear Abby: My adult daughter, “Suzie,� spent the weekend at our home, bringing along her boyfriend of six months. This was “Liam’s� first visit. I allowed them to share Suzie’s old bedroom, which we have converted into a family office. We keep a large futon in there for my daughter when she comes to visit. I didn’t make a big deal out of where Liam and Suzie should sleep because I didn’t want to embarrass them, and I was sure there would be no “hanky-panky� because our bedroom is right across the hall. Well, I was wrong. In the middle of the night I was awakened by Suzie’s squeals and moans. Fortunately, my husband is a sound sleeper. The next morning, while my husband was out on his daily run, I let the kids have it – to the point of slapping Liam around a little. I told Suzie her actions were disrespectful and I was highly disappointed in her. Suzie and I are no longer speaking and I am miserable. Do you think I overreacted? Did I silently give permission for such behavior by allowing them to share the same futon? And did Liam really think it would be OK to have sex in my home? – Miserable Mom in Wisconsin

Dear Miserable Mom: I will respond to your questions in reverse ADVICE order. The answers Dear are yes, yes Abby and yes. ■■■And all of you owe each other an apology. Dear Abby: “Dave� is 49, well-educated, gainfully employed and still lives with his parents. He has never been married and has no children. His dating history is “sketchy� – he claims never to have had a serious relationship with a woman. When I asked him why he has never lived on his own, he told me he feels comfortable living with his parents. Dave and I have enjoyed a strictly platonic relationship for nearly a year. He recently told me he’s in love with me and wants us to be exclusive, with marriage as the ultimate outcome. I have been divorced for 20 years. My children are independent, thriving adults. Marrying again is not a priority in my life. Dave is kind, sensitive and thoughtful. I care for him deeply, yet I am skeptical about becoming seriously involved with a man who seems to be “hiding� something. Am I being overly critical, or is there something

– where the speed limit is 45 mph – when it went out of control and crossed a raised concrete median and both southbound lanes of travel before running off the left side of the road, according to the police department’s report on the accident. The truck left tire impressions for 388 feet as it slowed to an estimated 50 mph before it hit a utility pole, overturned and then struck the wrought iron fence with brick columns that surrounds High Point University just south of the main entrance to the campus, the report stated. The impact of the crash left a hole in the fence. Smith was not wearing a seat belt and was ejected, police said. Rogers, who was

wearing a seat belt, was trapped inside the truck. After he was freed, he was taken to Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center, where he died from his

injuries a few hours later, police said. No other vehicles were involved and no one else was injured in the accident. pkimbrough@hpe.com | 888-3531

wrong with this picture? – Jaded in Jersey Dear Jaded: The situation you have described is unusual, but it doesn’t necessarily indicate that Dave is “hiding� anything. He could be a simple man who enjoys the living arrangement he has with his folks – and the lowest sex drive in New Jersey. Before making any hard and fast decisions, you and Dave need to have some frank, serious and ongoing conversations. You also need to determine how his parents will feel about “losing� their son after 49 years of togetherness. Dear Abby: I have three daughters who seem to be incapable of functioning as adults. None of them is employed or in school. My oldest is a single parent of two kids she doesn’t want. I love my grandkids and I know I should take them, but I raised my daughters and feel I’m too old to be Dad to toddlers again. Am I being selfish? – Dad Of Three Daughters in Nebraska Dear Dad: No, you are being realistic.

Potassium is important body mineral

D

ear Dr. Donohue: A recent blood check showed that my potassium was high. I was told to stop eating bananas and drinking orange juice. I also was told to return to the doctor’s office the next week. I did. They took another blood sample. They told me nothing more. What happens when potassium is high? – F.H.

BLONDIE

Potassium has many important jobs. It keeps the body’s electrical charges balanced. It’s involved in transmitting nerve signals. It’s needed to keep the heart beating and muscles contracting. It takes part in keeping the body neither too acid nor too alkaline. High blood potassium raises blood sugar, weakens muscles, causes nausea and vomiting, and triggers erratic and dangerous heartbeats. When the level is very high, potassium paralysis and death occur. Your potassium must not have been all that high. You had no symptoms. The causes of a high blood level include kidney illnesses, nonworking adrenal glands, a lack of insulin, sudden death of body cells, overuse of potassium supplements and medicines like beta blockers. The blood level of potassium can be read erroneously as high when the patient, during blood collection, keeps clenching and unclenching arm

muscles. It rises when blood cells break apart in their journey from a patient’s HEALTH arm to the laboratory. Dr. Paul It could Donohue be your ■■■ reading was high because of either of these situations. It’s hard to come up with an explanation that indicts an illness with raising potassium on one occasion and not keeping it raised for a short while. Dear Dr. Donohue: Some days ago, a patient inquired about a pill for tinnitus. I am enclosing an ad for such a pill. I know nothing about this treatment, but I believe it must be too good to be true. – R.P., M.D. Thank you, Doctor. The ad is for Quietus. Now that you made me aware of it, I see it advertised everywhere. This medicine idea comes from a professional drummer who suffered from tinnitus. Tinnitus is ear noises, ringing, buzzing, whooshing or clanging. It never lets up and intensifies at nighttime. The ingredients in Quietus are kept secret. It’s described as a homeopathic remedy. Homeopathy sprang up in the 19th century as

a way to cure illnesses by giving to patients natural products that provoked symptoms similar to those of the sick person. The teaching of homeopathy is summed up in: “like cures like.” The dose of homeopathic medicine is diluted many, many times over, so it doesn’t make people sick. Homeopathy doesn’t enjoy as large a following as it once did. I agree with the doctor. I am skeptical. I have no proof of its benefits. The ads feature many personal testimonials. Dear Dr. Donohue: I was delighted to find a recent report from university scientists that states that “beer is a rich source of dietary silicon, which is a key to increasing bone density.” It is apparently effective in preventing osteoporosis. What is the minimum daily requirement of silicon? – D.R. The latest edition of Dietary Reference Intakes, the standard for vitamin and mineral requirements, has no suggestion for the daily intake or the safe upper limit of silicon. All it reports is an average daily intake of 40 mg for men and 19 for women. As far as I know there is no universal recommendation to take silicon for prevention of osteoporosis. Maybe such a recommendation will be announced eventually.

Mazdas recalled for steering problems WASHINGTON – Mazda Motor Corp. is recalling more than 300,000 Mazda3 and Mazda5 vehicles in North America to fix problems with the power-steering system that could lead to a crash, a problem the automaker addressed in Japan a year ago. The Japanese automaker told the government the recall involved model year 2007-2009 Mazda3 and Mazda5 vehicles built from April 2007 through November 2008.

Judge throws out piracy charges RICHMOND, Va. – A judge on Tuesday dismissed charges against six Somali men accused of attacking a Navy ship off the coast of Africa, concluding the U.S. government failed to make the case their alleged actions amounted to piracy. The dismissal of the piracy count by U.S. District Judge Raymond A. Jackson tosses the most serious charge against the men, but leaves intact seven charges related to the alleged April 10 attack on the USS Ashland in the Gulf of Aden.

Sheriff: Mom killed kids, dumped car in river ORANGEBURG, S.C. (AP) – Investigators didn’t buy it when a woman said her two young sons drowned after her car plunged into a river. She ultimately confessed to killing the toddlers, they say – not by dumping them in the water but by suffocating them earlier with her own hands. Broke, jobless and berated by her mother for her failings, Shaquan Duley killed the boys, ages 2 years and 18 months, then strapped their bodies into their

car seats before rolling the vehicle into the North Edisto Duley River in a desperate cover-up attempt, authorities said Tuesday. “She truly felt, ‘If I don’t have these toddlers, I can be free,’ � Orangeburg County Sheriff Larry Williams said at a news conference. Duley, 29, was charged with murder and was to be arraigned today.

Try steak and peas – summer style

RIDE FOR ANGELS

---

BY J.M. HIRSCH AP FOOD EDITOR

S

teak and peas go so nicely together, but who wants to chase peas around their plate with a fork? I decided to tinker a bit and see if I could find a better way to marry these fine summer foods. The result was this grillfriendly open-face sandwich that seasons sirloin with a peppery garlic-lime marinade, then serves it over toasted sourdough slathered with a mildly spicy hummus made from peas. The combination is fresh and jammed with flavor. If peas aren’t your thing, you could substitute guacamole for the hummus, or even a more traditional chickpea hummus (purchased or otherwise). While the pea hummus is best prepared just before serving, the steak can be marinated for about 8 hours.

Grilled Steak with Pea Hummus Start to finish: 30 minutes Servings: 4 For the steak: 2 tablespoons cider vinegar 2 tablespoons lime juice 1/4 cup olive oil 4 cloves garlic Pinch red pepper flakes 1 teaspoon kosher salt 1 teaspoon whole black peppercorns 1 1/4 pounds tri-tip or sirloin steak, trimmed of fat and cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices For the pea hummus: 8-ounce bag fresh or frozen peas (thawed and drained, if frozen) 4 cloves garlic 1 teaspoon lime juice 4 Peppadew peppers (or other mildly sweet and spicy peppers) Salt and ground black pepper, to taste 4 thick slices sourdough bread 2 tablespoons butter In a blender, combine the vinegar, lime juice, oil, garlic, red pepper flakes, salt and peppercorns. Blend until mostly smooth, then pour into a medium stainless-steel or other non-reactive bowl. Add the steak, turn to coat evenly, then refrigerate for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare the pea hummus. Fill a medium bowl with ice and cold water. In a small saucepan, bring about 1/2 inch of water to a boil. Add the peas and steam for 3 minutes. Drain and transfer the peas to the ice water. When the peas are cooled, drain again and transfer to a food processor. Add the garlic, lime juice and Peppadews. Pulse until chunky smooth, then season with salt and pepper. Set aside. Heat a grill to high. Spread 1/2 tablespoon of butter over each slice of bread, then grill briefly to toast. Set aside. Grill the steak for 2 to 3 minutes, or until desired doneness. To serve, slather pea hummus over each slice of bread, then top with steak.

This Pepper-Crusted Chicken Salad with Roasted Garlic Caesar Dressing keeps the whole salad both healthy and delicious.

Grilled chicken Caesar salad The one you’ve been eating might not be all that healthy BY JIM ROMANOFF FOR THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

I

f your idea of a virtuous dinner out is ordering the grilled chicken Caesar salad, you should prepare yourself for some disappointment. These salads may sound light, but they can pack some serious fat and calories. At one national chain restaurant, for example, the grilled chicken Caesar salad serves up more than 1,000 calories and 64 grams of fat. These salads sound healthy because the basic components are – greens and boneless, skinless chicken breast. It’s when you dump on buttery croutons, shredded cheese, fatty dressings and crumbled bacon that the trouble starts. But at home you can make a dinner-sized salad to feel good about. This grilled chicken salad is tossed with a low-fat dressing made with the richly flavored pulp of roasted garlic (an excellent stand-in for fat). For this dressing, which can be made up to two days in advance and stored, covered, in the refrigerator, the roasted garlic is pureed with creamy nonfat yogurt and just a few tablespoons of extra-virgin olive oil. The dressing gets an added burst of flavor from a small amount of Parmesan cheese, as well as a few anchovy fillets, which are traditional Caesar ingredients. And don’t fear the anchovies. They add an irreplaceable flavor and texture to the dressing without adding any noticeable fishiness.

Pepper-Crusted Chicken Salad with Roasted Garlic Caesar Dressing Start to finish: 1 hour 20 minutes (35 minutes active) Servings: 4 For the dressing: 1 large head garlic 1/4 cup nonfat plain yogurt 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil 1 tablespoon lemon juice 1/2 tablespoon white wine vinegar 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard 2 anchovy fillets, rinsed Salt and ground black pepper, to taste For the salad: 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts trimmed of fat 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil 1/4 teaspoon salt, or to taste Ground black pepper, to taste 8 cups washed, dried and torn romaine lettuce 1 cup fat-free croutons Shredded Parmesan cheese, for garnish (optional) Lemon wedges Heat the oven to 400 degrees. To make the dressing, on a cutting board, using a sharp

YOUR COMMUNITY. YOUR NEWSPAPER.

knife, slice about 1/2-inch off the top of each head of garlic, exposing the individual cloves. Set each head on a square of foil and sprinkle with a tablespoon of water. Pinch together the edges of the foil to create a packet. Roast for 45 minutes. Unwrap and let cool slightly before squeezing the pulp from the cloves. In the bowl of a food processor or blender, combine the roasted garlic pulp, yogurt, cheese, oil, lemon juice, vinegar, mustard and anchovies. Process until smooth. Season with salt and pepper, then cover and refrigerate until ready to use. To make the salad, heat a gas grill to medium-high or light a charcoal fire. Rub the chicken with oil and season with salt. Coat the outsides heavily with pepper. Grill the chicken until browned and a thermometer reads 165 degrees at the center. In a large bowl, combine the lettuce and croutons. Toss with 1/2 cup of the dressing, then divide among 4 plates. Cut the chicken into 1/2-inch slices and arrange over the salad. Garnish with shredded Parmesan cheese, if desired. Serve immediately, with lemon wedges.

Hospice of Davidson County’s annual “Ride for Angels” motorcycle benefit raised more than $10,000 for county residents facing terminal illness. More than 240 motorcycles participated in the ride on July 17. Initially a local event, the escorted ride has grown to include riders from Virginia and South Carolina. This year more than 300 riders, 50 volunteers and two dozen area businesses donated their time and resources to raise funds and awareness for quality care at end of life. The event was held at Denton FarmPark and marked the third year that the agency partnered with Lexington Style Wings, a local chapter representing the Gold Wing Road Riders Association, to host the event. Hospice of Davidson County is a nonprofit agency providing medical, psychosocial, spiritual and bereavement services for the terminally ill. For the past 25 years, Hospice of DC has been the primary provider of endof-life care for Davidson County residents. For more information regarding Hospice of DC programs or opportunities for involvement, contact Laura Owen, director of communications and development, at (336) 474-2078.

Wednesday, August 18, 2010 CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Andy Samberg, 32; Edward Norton, 41; Denis Leary, 53; Robert Redford, 74 HAPPY BIRTHDAY: Pick up the knowledge or experience required to reach your goals. Love and romance are highlighted, so take the time to nurture and build any relationship important to you. If someone wants more than what you have to offer, you are probably spending time with the wrong person. Your numbers are 5, 12, 18, 25, 29, 36, 47 ARIES (March 21-April 19): Impulsive decisions based on emotions will not bode well. You have to give yourself a chance to digest what’s going on around you. There is no reason to feel pressured. The worst that can happen is that you have to wait for another opportunity. ★★★★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Just because someone asks you to do something doesn’t mean you have to or should. Question whether it is an imposition and will compromise fulfilling your responsibilities. Apply a bit of pressure if you are having trouble getting your way. ★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Make time for precious moments with children, your lover or a close friend. You must take care of your own needs. Socializing will bring you in contact with someone who can make your life much easier. Be proactive. ★★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): Avoid anyone looking for a fight. Make sure you do what’s required of you. Allowing someone to involve you in something you aren’t familiar with will cause anxiety. Prepare to say no. ★★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): It’s simple when you play by the rules and you give your all. You will attract attention as well as love and affection. This is a perfect time to take a pleasure trip or to let someone pamper you. You can turn any negative you face into a positive. ★★★★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Bypass any emotional madness going on around you. Concentrate on what will get you ahead, not what will hold you back. Timing is everything and, if you let your intuition lead you, it will not let you down. ★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Your discipline and intelligence, coupled with an extra strong intuition, will help you find your way to the top. Don’t let emotions overwhelm you. Focus on getting the job done. ★★★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You’ll be asked to help someone you’ve assisted in the past. If you don’t get any sort of payback, you may want to reconsider what you do for this person in the future. Don’t be fooled by a sob story. ★★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You may have all the angles covered but watch out for the one person who is watching your every move. Cover every aspect of what needs to be done. Leave no room for mistakes. Be prepared for lastminute changes. ★★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Avoid anyone with the potential or a reason to twist your words. An emotional matter will arise around a money deal or debt. Find a way to make it possible for everyone to feel comfortable with the decision. ★★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): A relationship that allows you to work together to obtain personal, financial and emotional growth is apparent. Don’t shy away from someone who wants to spend more time with you. Equality can be achieved if you work alongside someone with similar goals. ★★★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Your unpredictable ways will unnerve some people and attract others. A partnership may start on shaky ground but, once you iron out the wrinkles, you will realize how much you complement one another. It’s time to put your ideas and talent on the line. ★★

TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES

Wendy, my club’s feminist, says some women get excited over nothing – and marry him. “Haven’t you ever met a man who would’ve made a good husband?” I asked. “Yes,” Wendy replied grimly. “He did.” Wendy has trouble finding (and keeping) good partners. She was West, and at four spades South ruffed the third club, drew trumps – East threw a heart – and led a heart. Wendy ducked, and the king won. South conceded a diamond and claimed. “Thanks, partner,” Wendy bit out. “The man had to hold a singleton somewhere on that bidding,” East roared. “You ducked the setting trick.”

ACE OF DIAMONDS South’s bidding suggested an unbalanced hand, but Wendy didn’t know East had the ace of diamonds. If South had A K Q J 7 3, 7 6, A Q 9, 5 2, to give him a guess in hearts would have been the defenders’ only chance. On the third trump, East can discard the queen of hearts to prevent Wendy from going wrong. That play might

lose if South had A K Q J 7 3, A 7, K 9 2, 5 2, but then he’d have passed 3NT.

DAILY QUESTION You hold: S 8 4 H Q 10 8 6 2 D A 8 C A Q 9 8. Your partner opens one spade, you bid two hearts and he rebids two spades. What do you say? ANSWER: First, you must judge whether to commit to game. If your partner is apt to open light, shapely hands, bid only 2NT to invite. If instead he always has soundish values to open, force with a new-suit bid of three clubs or jump to 3NT. South dealer Both sides 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.

WHO’S NEWS

BY GREER SMITH ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER

WELCOME – Richard Childress still needs to do a bit of work when it comes to sponsorship of his lead pony. With employees filling out the gallery in the banquet hall at Richard Childress Racing, Anheuser-Busch officially announced Tuesday that Childress’ No. 29 driven by Kevin Harvick came out the winner in the battle for sponsorship from its Budweiser brand beginning next season. The company started looking for a new home next season after Kasey Kahne decided to Childress leave Richard Petty Motorsports at the end of the year. “There is a certain amount of fighter in me and you’ve got to fight to survive,” Childress said. “I want to win another championship for this organization and it drives me.” Childress needed to wade into the Budweiser derby because he needed a replacement for Shell-Pennzoil, which is going to Penske Racing. But, Budweiser will serve as primary sponsor in just 20 of the 36 points races, plus the 150-mile qualifying race and Budweiser-sponsored Shootout during Speedweeks. It will be a co-primary sponsor at the All-Star race and secondary sponsor for the other 16 points races. The deal is for three years. “To have a three-year commitment in this economy from a company like Budweiser is huge,” Childress said. “We made a presentation just like several other teams did, and for them to choose us is an honor.” Childress is hopeful to have announcements about other sponsors in the near future. Mark Wright, vice president of entertainment, sports and media marketing for Anheuser-Busch, said the company might have stayed with Kahne if his status for 2011 was not up in the air when he left RPM. Kahne departed RPM as part of a deal to drive for Hendrick Motorsports in 2012 that included Hendrick finding Kahne a ride for 2011. That happened just two weeks ago. “His uncertainty was a factor in our decision that we should go out and get the best driver possible,” Wright said. The decision to choose Harvick and Childress was easy, Wright said. The announcement comes two days after Harvick scored his third victory of the season and clinched the spot in the Chase for the Championship as the points leader. “Kevin was clearly the lead horse out there,” Wright said as one of his company’s signature Clydesdale horses stood nearby. “He’s the guy sitting on top of the points. He’s a proven winner. He’s got a great team owner. ... There wasn’t anyone comparable.” Wright indicated his company will spend the same amount on its NASCAR program, but is reducing the amount that goes into car sponsorship so that it put more into areas such as television, digital marketing, sweepstakes and themed areas at tracks. gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3556

Duke coach David Cutcliffe makes a statement to reporters during media day in Durham on Tuesday. The Blue Devils hope to cast a long shadow in the ACC this season.

Duke ready to get defensive BY STEVE WISEMAN ENTERPRISE DURHAM BUREAU

DURHAM – While deep and experienced aptly describe Duke’s linebackers and defensive secondary, it’s the defensive line that’s facing challenges as the Blue Devils prepare to open the season in a little more than two weeks. Already tasked with replacing departed seniors Ayanga Okpokowuruk and Vince Oghobaase, Duke is dealing with injuries that have further weakened an already thin group. Meeting with reporters on Media Day at the Yoh Football Center Tuesday, Duke coach David Cutcliffe said Wesley Oglesby, who was No. 1 on the depth chart at right defensive end entering fall camp, is out with an ankle injury while reserve left defensive end Sydney Sarmiento has a knee injury.

“Our defensive line is beat up a bit,” Cutcliffe said. “Not much you can do about that. I could go on and on about the numbers there.” In Monday night’s first scrimmage of the new season, redshirt senior Patrick Egboh and redshirt sophomore Kenny Anunike played end positions while Charlie Hatcher, a redshirt junior, manned nose guard. Duke defensive coordinator Marion Hobby praised those three for their leadership on Tuesday. Hobby singled out Anunike, a converted tight end, for his improvement. Despite that, Hobby and Cutcliffe will face some uncomfortable situations unless Oglesby and Sarmiento can get back on the field soon. It appears likely that Duke will have to play some true freshmen when they open the season Sept. 4 against Elon at Wallace Wade Stadium.

Wyndham extends its sponsorship WYNDHAM NOTEBOOK:

C

ount on the Wyndham name remaining on Sedgefield’s PGA Tour stop for the next two years. Tournament officials announced Tuesday that Wydnham Worldwide exercised an option to extend its sponsorship through 2012 for a total of six years. Tournament director Mark Brazil said the negotiations went on “for a long time, We felt confident about it. It was more than a sponsorship. It was a friendship we have with Wyndham. It wasn’t a done deal until it was signed and it was signed in the last three or four days.” Terms of the deal were not announced but Brazil said the renewal did include a purse increase of $100,000 to $5.2 million for the next two years. The event will also continue as the final event of the Tour’s regular season. Wyndham Worldwide chairman and chief executive officer Stephen Holmes indicated a key reason for the renewal was an opportunity to carry out the company’s emphasis on helping charities. The Hole in the Wall Gang Camp, of which Victory Junction Gang Camp is a part, is one of three main charities supported by Wyndham. Victory Junction Camp is the official charity of the tournament through the Piedmont Triad Charitable

Foundation. “It was an important aspect,” Holmes said. “The best charity event are where everyone wins. We SPORTS win when we get customers Greer down here, they Smith spend time with ■■■ us and enjoy the Triad area. Raising some money for charity is a big, big plus. We would not do it if there was not an aspect of charity involved. “The main charity is Victory Junction. One of the attractions to sponsoring this tournament is that it is a strong charity that was local and serving the community.” PGA Tour chief operating officer Rick George said that tournament has raised $10 million for charity in recent years. He said it was the 16th renewal by a sponsor since the start of the 2009 season. “It is special when you have a shared vision for what you are trying to accomplish and this is what we have here,” Holmes said. “It has been a wonderful experience for us and we look forward to the next two years.”

TEE TIMES Drew Weaver is booked for an early start in Thursday’s first round, embarking from

the No. 10 tee at 8:50 a.m. with Jarrod Lyle of Australia and Cameron Tringale of California. They will go at 1:50 p.m. from the No. 1 tee on Friday. One of the most notable groups for the first two rounds is the threesome of Anthony Kim, Justin Leonard and Fred Couples. They start from No. 10 tee at 7:50 a.m. on Thursday and from No. 1 tee at 12:50 p.m. on Friday. Former N.C. State star and Wyndham winner Carl Pettersson, defending tournament champ Ryan Moore and former UNC player Davis Love 111 are set to go from No. 1 tee at 12:40 p.m. on Thursday. They will be followed 10 minutes later by 2009 U.S. Open champ Lucas Glover, Boo Weekley and David Toms.

COMPANY MAN Golfer most exited over Wyndham’s sponsorship renewal is Brent Snedeker, who is sponsored by Wyndham and scored his only PGA win in Greensboro three years ago. “This is a special place for me since I got my only win here,” Snedeker said. “I’m glad they were able to sign on for a couple more years and keep the tournament here and help the charities here. Hopefully I can win it for a second time.” gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3556

HIT AND RUN

A

re you ready for some college football, Simeon Stadium style? If you are, then you’re in luck. The Furniture City Classic pitting WinstonSalem State against Virginia Union is set to kick off around 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, August 28. This contest pits CIAA members against one another in a regular-season opener. The Rams, who finished 1-10 last season, are returning to NCAA Division II competition.

The Panthers, meanwhile, posted a solid 6-4 record a year ago. Both teams showcase some local talent. The Rams’ roster features three players with local ties. Redshirt junior defensive back Daniel Degraffenreid, who starred at Ragsdale High, figures to see plenty of action this season. WSSU also boasts a pair of true freshmen from T. Wingate Andrews High in linebacker Dymaan Flores and tight end Winston Hill, Jr. For the Panthers, true freshman running

back Richard Keitt hails from T.W. Andrews. The game was moved from Bowman Gray Stadium due a conflict with the Stadium’s race schedule. Both reserved seat and general admission ticket packages are on sale through the WSSU Ticket Office. Call (336) 750-3220 for more details. It should be a great season-opening show. Enjoy!

A bloodied Eli Manning was in some discomfort a day after receiving 12 stitches for a head wound. Manning’s status for the New York Giants’ game against the Pittsburgh Steelers this weekend is uncertain. While the Giants said Tuesday that Manning showed no signs of a concussion after suffering a three-inch gash to his head in a 3116 win over the Jets on Monday night, the 29year-old quarterback was undergoing a battery of tests to make sure he did not suffer a more serious head injury. His helmet knocked off and he was hit in the head. Coach Tom Coughlin was told Tuesday morning that Manning was experiencing the normal amount of discomfort a player goes through when he has stitches. Coughlin refused to speculate whether Manning will play Saturday night in the Giants’ preseason home opener at the New Meadowlands Stadium. “We’ll wait and hear what the doctors have to say,” Coughlin said.

CHAPEL HILL – A homeand-home football series between North Carolina and Tennessee slated for 2011 and ’12 appears to be canceled after the Vols requested to back out of the agreement, which was made five years ago. “Through verbal communication, I’m anticipating that that will be the case but we have not formally done that,� Tennessee athletic director Mike Hamilton said. Hamilton said UT talked about moving the series to later in the decade or organizing a neutral

NEW YORK (AP) – We’ve heard the frenzied call forever, echoing through baseball lore. “The Giants win the pennant! The Giants win the pennant!� Bobby Thomson, the man immortalized with his “Shot Heard ’Round the World� in 1951, died Monday night at his home in Savannah, Ga.

He was 86 and had been in failing health for several years. He was a good player, not a Hall of Famer. Yet on that October afternoon, with one swing, Thomson transformed a pennant race for one season into a baseball moment for the ages. He hit perhaps the sport’s most famous

home run, connecting off Ralph Branca for a three-run drive in the bottom of the ninth inning that sent the New York Giants over the Brooklyn Dodgers in the decisive Game 3 of their National League playoff. The drive into the leftfield stands at the Polo Grounds and Russ Hodges’ call are legendary.

site game, but neither option worked for the Tar Heels. “We’re in discussions as far as the series – should we play it, should it be postponed, should it just be canceled and if it is canceled, what are the ramifications in doing so,� UNC senior associate athletic director Larry Gallo said. The Vols were to visit Chapel Hill in 2011, and the Tar Heels were scheduled to travel to Knoxville in 2012. Hamilton said he wanted to break up the Vols’ 2011 schedule, which includes a stretch of games against Cincinnati, Flori-

da, North Carolina, Georgia, LSU and Alabama. Tennessee will have to pay a contract buyout if the school exercises the liquidated damages clause to vacate the series.

BASEBALL OVER FOOTBALL UNC lost a linebacker Monday when freshman Ty Linton received a $1.25 million signing bonus for accepting a deal with the Arizona Diamondbacks.

Favre is back in Minnesota CASH vre’s closest friends on the team – Jared Allen, Ryan Longwell and Steve Hutchinson – to Hattiesburg to bring him back for one more shot at a Super Bowl. Presumably, Favre did not make the trip just to tell the Vikings he was retiring, but the team issued no formal confirmation that the star quarterback was taking back his starting job. The Vikings instead issued a media schedule for today, announcing that coach Brad Childress will hold his regular news conference following practice.

ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – International Speedway Corporation isn’t immune to the recession. The company that owns 13 tracks that host Cup races announced Tuesday the implementation of organizational and structural changes that will create a leaner organization. The changes include the departure of chief operating officer Roger VanDerSnick and no plans to fill his position. The primary responsibilities of this role will fall to ISC’s President, John Saunders. As the economic recovery expected earlier in 2010 has not materialized, ISC initiate additional organizational and structural changes through the remainder of its fiscal year.

These changes will include streamlining of corporate services, optimization of event and ancillary business models, and process improvements that will result in a reduction of workforce and operational costs. ISC anticipates these initiatives will lower its direct operating expenses, beginning in 2011, by $20 million to $30 million in sustainable reductions. These changes will result in the Company recording a pre-tax charge to earnings of between $1.5 million and $1.9 million, or approximately $0.02 and $0.03 per diluted share, in its fiscal 2010 results. Additional non-material cash and non-cash charges will be incurred in 2011 and 2012, depending on the timing of other business changes.

Banks say stimulus needed WASHINGTON (AP) – The Obama administration invited banking executives Tuesday to offer advice on changing the government’s role in the mortgage market. Their response: stay big. While the executives disagreed on the exact level of support needed, the group overwhelmingly advocated the government should maintain a large role propping up the nearly $11 trillion market. Bill Gross, managing director of bond giant Pimco, said the economic recovery required more government stimulus, particularly in the housing market. He suggested the administration push for the automatic

Reynolds to buy Hefty bag maker LAKE FOREST, Ill. – Reynolds Group, part of the global packaging business owned by New Zealand’s richest man, said Tuesday it will pay about $4.4 billion for Hefty bag maker Pactiv. Including debt, the acquisition is valued at around $6 billion.

Wal-Mart reports increase in income NEW YORK – WalMart Stores Inc. reported a 3.6 percent increase in secondquarter net income and raised its earnings guidance for the full year as it benefits from cost-cutting and robust global growth in China, Brazil and Mexico. But a closely watched measure of revenue fell more than expected, dragged down by its U.S. Walmart division, as its main customers have felt the biggest impact of the economy’s woes.

Home Depot profit rises in 2nd quarter NEW YORK – Hot weather kept gardeners indoors and economic uncertainty still had professional builders holding back during the second quarter, Home Depot said Tuesday. But a modest revenue increase helped the nation’s largest homeimprovement retailer’s net income to rise 7 percent.

refinancing of millions homes backed by mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Fannie Mac. Refinancing those homes at the lowest mortgage rates in decades would give Americans more money each month. That would boost consumer spending by $50 billion to $60 billion and lift housing prices by as much as 10 percent, he said. Without such stimulus in the next six months, Gross said, the economy will move at a “snails pace.� Treasury officials have said they have no plans to enact such a plan, which has been the subject of intense rumors on Wall Street in recent weeks. Tuesday’s conference

at the Treasury Department is the administration’s first of many steps toward restructuring the troubled industry. So far, rescuing Fannie and Freddie has cost the government more than $148 billion. That number is expected to grow. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner pledged “fundamental change� to the structure of Fannie and Freddie. The mortgage giants profited tremendously during good times but burdened taxpayers with losses when the housing market went bust. He said the two companies weren’t the only cause of the financial crisis, but made it worse.

Factories help bumpy recovery WASHINGTON (AP) – New government data offered a mixed picture of the economic recovery Tuesday, as U.S. manufacturing activity grew in July at the fastest pace in nearly a year while the outlook for the housing market remained dim. Auto plants stayed open when they normally close for summer renovations and businesses replaced worn-out equipment. That helped boost factory output 1.1 percent – the biggest increase since August 2009. Overall output at the nation’s factories, mines and utilities rose 1.0 percent last month, the Federal Reserve reported. That followed a decline of 0.1 percent in June, the first drop in more than a year. Construction of new homes and apartments rose 1.7 percent last month, the Commerce Department said. But the gains were driven by a 32.6 percent surge in apartment and condo-

minium construction, a small fraction of the market. Single-family home construction, which represented nearly 80 percent of the market, fell 4.2 percent. And requests for building permits, considered a good sign of future activity, slid 3.1 percent. Separately, the Labor Department said wholesale prices rose last month on higher costs of food, cars and light trucks. Excluding volatile food and energy costs, so-called “core� producer prices rose 0.3 percent in July, the ninth straight increase. Core prices have risen 1.5 percent in the past year, a sign that inflation remains tame. The recovery has weakened in recent months. Consumers are spending less and saving more. Businesses are hiring fewer workers. The unemployment rate for July was 9.5 percent and economists expect that to stay at that level for the rest of the year.

Earnings give boost to stocks NEW YORK (AP) – Investors regained some enthusiasm for stocks Tuesday, sending prices sharply higher after reports showed a slight improvement in the housing market and a big jump in industrial production. Investors were also encouraged by earnings from Home Depot Inc. and Wal-Mart Stores Inc. that were better than expected. It’s too early to say whether stocks have recovered from a recent slump that sent the Dow falling almost 400 points over four days or whether Tuesday’s advance was an upward blip. But Tuesday’s reports provided a slice of optimism and some reassurance that the economy continues to expand, although at a slower pace than early this year. “The data and earnings should ease people’s concerns about a double-dip� recession, said Peter Bible, a partner at EisnerAmper. “We’re anemic; we’re slow; we’re crawling, but we’re not going backward.� About four stocks rose for one that fell on the New York Stock Exchange where volume came to a light 980 million shares. Investors also had some good news from the latest inflation reading. Prices at the wholesale level rose 0.2 percent last month, the Labor Department said.
