Guilford County rate among highest in state BY PAM HAYNES ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

The sky’s the limit! Area high school football teams have high hopes as the 2010 season kicks off tonight. Get ready for all the action with today’s Fall Sports Guide, a full-color 48-page section featuring preview stories, photos and schedules of ALL the fall sports at our 15 area high schools.

GUILFORD COUNTY – Guilford County is in the top three counties in North Carolina that have seen the most foreclosures this year. According to court data, 2,542 homes have been foreclosed on in the county. It ranks behind just Mecklenburg County, with 6,726 foreclosures, and Wake County, with 3,246 foreclosures. The state is expected to reach a record number of foreclosures by the end of the year, according to a prediction made by the N.C. Justice Center, if current foreclosure rates persist. Last year, there were 63,289 foreclosures in the state. The state could see 70,000 this year, according to the department. Local real estate agents and lenders say they’ve adjusted to an environment where short-sell homes that they market turn into foreclosures before a buyer comes along. “It’s happened slowly,” said Ed Stafford, branch manager at Coldwell Banker Triad Realtors in High Point. “A lot of folks in short sells will call us to tell us their home has been foreclosed on while we’re

in the process of marketing the home. It’s become a big part of the business.” The increase has put more work on banks too, and extra paperwork can slow activity down in the housing market as well, Stafford said. “Sometimes we can’t get lenders to respond to calls or make a move,” he said. “We assume that’s because they are covered up with this stuff. Who knows how many more (foreclosures) they have in their portfolio that they haven’t released yet?” Last week, it was announced that North Carolina was one of 17 states that would snag an additional $121 million in federal aid to assist homeowners struggling to afford their mortgage payments. But it’s no surprise that Guilford County sits among the counties with the highest foreclosure rates considering numerous layoffs that have occurred in recent years. “I expect when we see new, permanent, full-time jobs, we’ll see some relief (in foreclosures),” Stafford said. “But with so many (foreclosures) in the pipeline, that may not happen for one to two years.”

Congressman mulls lessons from Iraq

TRAFFIC JAM: Accident at Yadkin bridge snarls I-85 traffic. 2A

BY PAUL B. JOHNSON ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

TRIAD – Rep. Howard Coble, R6th, comes to a sobering conclusion as he ponders the end of major combat operations in the Iraq war after more than seven years. Coble voted in the fall of 2002 for the congressional resolution that gave the administration of former Republican President George W. Bush the authority to invade. Now, as Coble surveys how Coble the war and post-invasion morass materialized, the congressman acknowledges that, if he knew then what he knows now, he probably wouldn’t have voted to support the invasion. “I assumed that we had formulated some sort of post-entry strategy. Alas, we had not. If I had known there was no post-entry strategy, I probably wouldn’t have voted to dispatch troops,” the 13term congressman said. Both houses of Congress voted overwhelmingly in the fall of 2002 to authorize the invasion, which began early in 2003. Major combat operations in Iraq officially ended early Thursday when American troops streamed across the border into Kuwait. The completion of the massive withdrawal, leaving 50,000 American forces, fulfilled a campaign pledge by Democratic President Barack Obama. Coble raised eyebrows in political circles here and across the nation four years ago when he became one of the first Republican congressman to publicly discuss the possibility of withdrawing troops from Iraq. Coble continues to maintain that U.S. forces did the world a favor by overthrowing former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein, who was executed by Iraqis in the aftermath of the in-

Testimony concludes in ex-Marine’s murder case

WXII

GOLDSBORO (AP) – The ex-Marine charged with killing a pregnant Camp Lejeune colleague in 2007 declined Thursday to take the stand in his own defense after the final witnesses in his trial cast doubt on the victim’s truthfulness. Speaking for the first time during the trial, Cesar Laurean, 23, of Las Vegas answered “Yes sir,” when Superior Court Judge W. Osmond Smith III asked whether it was Laurean’s decision to skip the opportunity to speak to the jury. Laurean could face life in prison if convicted of first-degree murder and other charges. He is accused of killing Lance Cpl. Maria Lauterbach, 20, of Vandalia,

Ohio, who served with Laurean in the same personnel unit and had accused him of rape. “All of the evidence in this case has been presented,” Smith said before dismissing jurors until Monday, when attorneys for both sides are expected to present closing arguments. Prosecutors contend that Laurean killed the pregnant Lauterbach with one blow of a crowbar after she came to his home on Dec. 14, 2007. Lauterbach had spent that afternoon withdrawing $700 from the bank, buying a bus ticket to El Paso, Texas, and leaving a note for her roommate that she was quitting the Marine Corps.

Nine cars and a tour bus were involved in an accident Thursday on Interstate 85 near the Davidson-Rowan county line. The accident backed up traffic for miles and left drivers idle for hours. No serious injuries were reported.

Bus wreck disrupts Yadkin River bridge traffic ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

DAVIDSON COUNTY – The N.C. State Highway Patrol said Thursday that rain was the cause of multiple-vehicle crash that blocked traffic on Interstate 85 in southern Davidson County, ac-

cording to WXII 12 News. The rain caused a minor accident just south of the Rowan County line when a tour bus could not stop in time, causing the larger crash at about 7:25 a.m. Thursday. Troopers said nine cars, in addition to the

tour bus, were involved in the wreck near the Yadkin River bridge. Five people were transported to the hospital with minor injuries, the television station reported. One person was sent to Lexington Memorial Hospital. The other four

went to Rowan Regional Medical Center. Troopers said one car was balancing on the guardrail when they arrived at the scene. The cars were removed by 10:30 a.m. Tuesday, and full traffic flow was restored around noon.

WXII

The tour bus involved in Thursday’s accident near the Yadkin River bridge is being hauled away by a tow truck.

State Auditor Beth Wood’s office on Thursday released its review of the program designed to reward workers who have strong government careers and to ensure fair pay raises. The review points to a

no connection between pay and performance because the General Assembly usually approves the same raises for everyone. Wood’s recommends lawmakers decide whether to revise or eliminate the system altogether.

Meeting fails to end church-strip club feud

WARSAW, Ohio (AP) – The leader of an Ohio church feuding with a nearby strip club says a meeting failed to bring a truce. Pastor Bill Dunfee of New Beginnings Ministries says he and Fox Hole club owner Tommy George found no common ground during their roughly two-hour

sit-down at a diner Wednesday night. Dunfee says he would have accepted nothing less from George than an offer to shut down his business. The pastor says church members will continue to gather outside the club on weekend nights, as they’ve done for years.

The committee is seeking community sponsors to raise the $300,000. “I’m optimistic,” Freeman said Thursday. “We don’t have any firm partners that have said we will do this, but we have had some conversations with people and they were optimistic as well. It’s a need. Not that what we have is unsafe, it’s just old. “It’s been good stuff. When this stuff was installed, it was the best there was and it’s stood the test of time. Time continues to march on, and so our plan is just to update these parks.” Parks that have been identified for needs are Doak Park, Carver Park,

Mistakes revive questions about Jordan murder

FILE |AP

In a Tuesday, Oct. 5, 1993 photo, Larry Demery (left) and Daniel Green, charged with murdering James Jordan, father of NBA star Michael Jordan, leave the courthouse in Lumberton.

RALEIGH (AP) – The man convicted of killing Michael Jordan’s father went to prison in part thanks to testimony that he pointed a gun through a car window and fired the fatal shot from just inches away. Given the gruesome portrayal, Daniel Andre Green’s defense attorneys repeatedly questioned why so little – if any – blood was actually found in that vehicle, and one of the lawyers once laughed in court when downplaying the physical evidence. Their arguments could be bolstered by an independent report this week that concluded the state’s crime lab mishandled his case and nearly 200 others over a 16-year period ending in 2003.

“It looks like it’s going to be something pretty significant,� Green’s current attorney, Scott Holmes, said of the report released Wednesday. The outside inquest has led state prosecutors to request a more detailed review of all the investigations, and even lawyers in cases unrelated to the audit hope the lab’s mistakes could help them win new trials. James Jordan’s 1993

murder offers a glimpse into how the State Bureau of Investigation’s errors could threaten years-old convictions. An SBI expert testified at trial that she found a small amount of blood in the passenger seat of Jordan’s car. But according to this week’s review, the SBI found only “indications� blood was present in an initial test, and four follow-up tests were inconclusive.

Green’s trial lawyers admitted that he helped dispose of Jordan’s body and drove Jordan’s car, but the lawyers denied that Green killed him and tried to cast doubt on key testimony by his codefendant. Angus Thompson, one of Green’s trial attorneys, said he was reviewing the details of the case but didn’t think the SBI ever disclosed the inconclusive follow-up tests.

Obama is making us one large, mediocre country The New York Post headline: “President Obama gives blessing to ground zero mosque.” “President Obama last night strongly backed the ground zero mosque while celebrating Ramadan with Muslim Americans.” Barack Hamas Obama continued, “Let me be clear. As a citizen (of the world), and as president, I believe that Muslims have the same right to practice their religion as everyone else in this country.” Again we see either the abject ignorance or blatant dishonesty of this fool. This has nothing to do with freedom of religion. There are more than 100 mosques littering the five boroughs. The governor said he would donate space at another site. His offer was refused by the “peace” loving Muslims. This is an “in your face” gesture. BHO may join them in celebrating their greatest victory in a 1,000 years, but most Americans strongly oppose this travesty, just as they oppose almost all of his horrible polices. That’s why his approval rating is in the low 40s among all but the most willfully blind among us. Discount the 88 percent approval of his loyal group-think Lemming-Americans for a more accurate picture. Recent polls have shown that, despite his “Summer of Recovery” Vaudeville tour, 86 percent believe we are headed in the wrong direction. Despite his mantra, “If you tell a big enough lie often enough, it … truth,” like how his Patronage (stimulus) Bill prevented a depression, only 29 percent are dumb enough to believe it. Many of them will be responding to this!

Circumvent the people by rushing legislation through

Company says no to shakedown ‘W ne would think, with all of the scandals and with all the publicity about higher ethics standards North Carolinians have endured over the past few years, that folks in government, and the people with whom they deal, would wise up. One would be hopelessly naive. According to a News & Observer of Raleigh report, the owner of North Carolina’s top ballot printer says he probably won’t give next time to an association of county elections directors that has asked for and received financial help with its social events. The N&O revealed that Printelect and Election Systems & Software paid $5,000 as a “gold sponsor” for an April 2009 party by the North Carolina Association of Directors of Elections. Such action is not illegal even though a state elections ethics code prohibits elections officials from soliciting or receiving anything of value from a vendor “in return for being influenced in the discharge” of officials duties, the N&O reported. But the code allows officials to receive meals or entertainment at “social activities available to all members” of an association. So what’s wrong with this picture, you ask? Simple: It’s a perceived if not explicit conflict of interest because Printelect is an agent for ES&S, which sells and maintains all the state’s voting machines, and Printelect prints ballots for 85 of North Carolina’s 100 counties. It’s been going on for years. Thankfully, Printelect owner Owen Andrews has seen the light. We hope other vendors who have been hit up by NCADE and other similar governmental organizations will follow Andrews’ advice. Common sense indicates they should. But, as Fred Thompson says at least once a day on his radio program, “Why do they call it common sense when it’s not so common?”

I went to a local barber shop on a recent morning. After entering the establishment and exchanging pleasantries, I took a seat on the sofa to wait my turn. I’m reading the paper while waiting and one of the barbers starts talking about “niggers.” I decide to just ignore him and continue reading. The ignorant barber says what he has to say, the subject of conversation gets changed and I thought that was the end of it. But no. The racist barber has to steer the conversation back to the topic, and this time the other barber chimes in and starts using that epithet also. Enough was enough. I put the paper back on the counter and walked out the door. Why do racist people assume that all white people think like them? Why do the same ignorant racist people who would never have the courage to call a black person that slur to their face get all lippy when they are in a room with only whites and start throwing the word around? Answer One, because they’re

e the people” are the central concern of the Constitution, as well as its opening words, since it is a Constitution for a self-governing nation. But “we the people” are treated as an obstacle to circumvent by the current administration in Washington. One way of circumventing the people is to rush legislation through Congress so fast that no one knows what is buried in it. Did you know that the so-called health care reform bill contained a provision creating a tax on people who buy and sell gold coins? You might debate whether that tax is a good or a bad idea. But the whole point of burying it in legislation about medical insurance is to make sure “we the people” don’t even know about it, much less have a chance to debate it, before it becomes law. Did you know that the huge financial reform bill that has been similarly rushed through Congress, too fast for anyone to read it, has a provision about “inclusion” of women and minorities? Pretty words like “inclusion” mean ugly realities like quotas. But that too is not something that “we the people” are to be allowed to debate, because it too was sneaked through. Not since the Norman conquerors of England published their laws in French, for an English-speaking nation, centuries ago, has there been such contempt for the people’s right to know what laws were being imposed on them. Yet another ploy is to pass laws worded in vague generalities, leaving it up to the federal bureaucracies to issue specific regulations based on those laws. “We the people” can’t vote on bureaucrats. And, since it takes time for all the bureaucratic rules to be formulated and then put into practice, we won’t know what either the rules or their effects are prior to this fall’s elections when we vote for (or against) those who passed these clever laws. The biggest circumvention of “we the people” was of course the so-called “health care reform” bill. This bill was passed with the proviso that it would not really take effect until after the 2012 presidential elections. Between now and then, the Obama administration can tell us in glowing words how wonderful this bill is, what good things it will do for us, and how it has rescued us

from the evil insurance companies, among its many other glories. But we won’t really know what the actual effects of this bill are until after the next presidential elections – which is to say, after it is too late. OPINION Quite simply, we are being played for fools. Thomas Much has been made of Sowell the fact that families making ■■■ less than $250,000 a year will not see their taxes raised. Of course they won’t see it, because what they see could affect how they vote. But when huge tax increases are put on electric utility companies, the public will see their electricity bills go up. When huge taxes are put on other businesses as well, they will see the prices of the things those businesses sell go up. If you are not in that “rich” category, you will not see your own taxes go up. But you will be paying someone else’s higher taxes, unless of course you can do without electricity and other products of heavily taxed businesses. If you don’t see this, so much the better for the Obama administration politically. This country has been changed in a more profound way by corrupting its fundamental values. The Obama administration has begun bribing people with the promise of getting their medical care and other benefits paid for by other people, so long as those other people can be called “the rich.” Incidentally, most of those who are called “the rich” are nowhere close to being rich. There was a time when most Americans would have resented the suggestion that they wanted someone else to pay their bills. But now, envy and resentment have been cultivated to the point where even people who contribute nothing to society feel that they have a right to a “fair share” of what others have produced. The most dangerous corruption is a corruption of a nation’s soul. That is what this administration is doing.

Yemen: Top al-Qaida member turns himself in

Soldiers celebrate Iraq exit KHABARI CROSSING, Kuwait (AP) – A line of heavily armored American military vehicles, their headlights twinkling in the predawn desert, lumbered past the barbed wire and metal gates marking the border between Iraq and Kuwait early Thursday and rolled into history. For the troops of the 4th Stryker Brigade, 2nd Infantry Division, it was a moment of relief fraught with symbolism but lightened by the whoops and cheers of soldiers one step closer to going home. Seven years and five months after the U.S.-led invasion, the last American combat brigade was leaving Iraq, well ahead of President Barack Obama’s Aug. 31 deadline for ending U.S. combat operations there.

The presence is far from over. Scatterings of troops still await departure, and some 50,000 will stay another year in what is designated as a noncombat role. They will carry weapons to defend themselves and accompany Iraqi troops on missions (but only if asked). Special forces will continue to help Iraqis hunt for terrorists. So the U.S. death toll – at least 4,415 by Pentagon count as of Wednesday – may not yet be final. The Stryker brigade’s departure left about 52,600 U.S. troops in Iraq as of Thursday, said Lt. Gen. Robert Cone. The U.S. military’s top spokesman in Iraq, Maj. Gen. Stephen Lanza, called Iraqi security forces ready to defend the country

despite “some violent acts that we’ve seen.” “Their capability continues to grow, which has enabled us to conduct our responsible drawdown,” Lanza said on CBS’s “The Early Show.” Based in Joint Base Lewis-McChord in Washington state and named for the vehicle that delivers troops into and out of battle, the Stryker brigade lost 34 troops in Iraq. It was at the forefront of many of the fiercest battles, including operations in eastern Baghdad and Diyala province, an epicenter of the insurgency, during “the surge” of 2007. It evacuated troops at the battle of Tarmiyah, an outpost where 28 out of 34 soldiers were wounded holding off insurgents.

Flood survivors negotiate a flooded road at Muzaffargarh, in central Pakistan on Thursday.

Pakistan leader says militants could exploit floods ISLAMABAD (AP) – Islamist terrorists may exploit the chaos and misery caused by the floods in Pakistan to gain new recruits, the country’s president warned Thursday – remarks echoed by a leading U.S. senator who said America would stand by its vital wartime ally during the crisis. The floods have affected 20 million people and about one-fifth of Pakistan’s territory, straining its civilian government as it also struggles against al-Qaida and Taliban violence. Aid groups and the United Nations have complained that foreign donors have not been quick or generous enough given the scale of the disaster. “All these catastrophes give strength to forces who do not want a state structure,” President Asif

Ali Zardari said during a press conference with John Kerry, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, after the two visited some of the country’s hardest-hit areas and a relief camp.

UN URGES WORLD TO AID PAKISTAN UNITED NATIONS – The United Nations is putting the spotlight on more than 20 million Pakistani flood victims and urging governments and people around the world to open their wallets to help. At a hurriedly called meeting of the U.N. General Assembly on Thursday, Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said donors have given half the $460 million the U.N. appealed for to provide food, shelter and clean water.

Lebanese ship WAREHOUSE SALE to sail for Gaza Sunday TRIPOLI, Lebanon (AP) – A Lebanese ship carrying aid and women activists hoping to break Israel’s Gaza blockade will set sail Sunday from Lebanon despite warnings that they will not be allowed to make it past Cyprus, organizers said Thursday. The ship cannot travel directly to Gaza from Lebanon because Beirut is still technically at war with Israel, forcing the vessel to pass through a third country – in this case, Cyprus.

SPECIAL | HPE

Lance Armstong won the Tour de France a record seven consecutive times and overcame testicular cancer.

HIGH POINT – International cycling star and Tour de France champion Lance Armstrong will serve as keynote speaker for High Point University’s commencement next spring. Armstrong will speak May 7, 2011, during commencement exercises on the HPU campus, the university announced Thursday. “Each year, we aim to set positive examples to our graduating seniors who are just beginning to step out into the real world and begin their careers,” said HPU President Nido Qubein. “Lance Armstrong is a shining example of hard work and dedication – and

what it really means to work toward a goal. He is a champion who stays Armstrong at the top of his game through his positive outlook and determination to make a difference; his message will surely inspire our 2011 graduates to go out and succeed.” Armstrong is best known for winning the Tour de France a record seven consecutive times and beating testicular cancer.

by cancer. In 2004, the foundation partnered with Nike and launched the LiveStrong campaign along with the “Wear Yellow” movement, which featured a yellow wristband that has become a worldwide phenomenon. Armstrong continues to promote his message globally, traveling worldwide to inspire leaders to support the fight against cancer. Past HPU commencement speakers include former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, Queen Noor of Jordan, Bill Cosby, U.S. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, astronaut Buzz Aldrin and Muhtar Kent, chief executive officer of the Coca-Cola Co.

DAVIDSON COUNTY – A Lexington business opened its doors two hours early Thursday just for Friendship Elementary teachers to shop for the upcoming school year. All About Education welcomed about 30 teachers into its business, which provided breakfast for the educators, at about 8 a.m. Teachers were notified of the shopping trip Wednesday by Principal Christa DiBonaventura. “These teachers are fantastic,” DiBonaventura said. “They work hard all year long. What they are here today to get are things that support our curriculum and our initiatives here in the county and the school.” For the shopping trip, the school used money that the system budgets for instructional purposes. Friendship Elementary teachers said the shopping trip was beneficial because the school’s PTO used money to buy laptops for teachers this school year. The PTO typically gives teachers $100 to spend on school supplies.

Friendship Elementary School teachers Liddy Matthews (rear) Libby Bradley shop for school supplies. “Some teachers were kind of sad a little bit that we weren’t going to have the cash to go ahead and spend, so (DiBonaventura) doing this is amazing,” said Liddy Matthews, a first-grade teacher. Matthews said she was using the shopping trip for individual whiteboards and paper. She said teachers got excited when they learned of the shopping trip Wednesday. Libby Bradley, a kindergarten teacher, said the store was “very kind” to open its doors for Friend-

ship Elementary. “A lot of these supplies we would have normally had to buy ourselves,” Bradley said. “It really helps us to have things up and going before school.” Toby Prince, co-owner of All About Education at 15 W. Second Ave., said it was the first time the store opened up exclusively for a school in the morning hours. “I think it helps raise morale,” he said. “I think it’s kind of a great kick off to the new year. It gets the teachers motivated.” dignasiak@hpe.com | 888-3657

Caretaker at kennel indicted MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

GREENSBORO – A grand jury has indicted the caretaker of a Pleasant Garden kennel where 97 puppies were seized earlier this year on animal cruelty charges. Robert Lee Landreth was indicted Monday on six counts of felony animal cruelty and five misdemeanor counts of animal cruelty in connection

with the raid of Rush Kennel in Pleasant Garden in early April. Sheila Marie Savage, 53, the owner of the kennel, was indicted on similar charges in early June. The grand jury also returned another indictment against her this week regarding obtaining property by false pretense. The investigation came as a result of 14 complaints from customers who said

puppies they bought suffered from a variety of illnesses and were infested with parasites. Officers in the undercover investigation bought a toy poodle puppy in late March and found it was sick, authorities said. The puppy died within two weeks, leading authorities to raid the kennel on April 7 and seize 97 dogs from what Sheriff BJ Barnes called “a puppy mill out of control.�

Ownership of the seized dogs was given to the Guilford County Animal Shelter in early May. The dogs have since been adopted or taken in by rescue groups. Savage was charged with obtaining property by false pretense in June regarding selling a toy poodle to a buyer, representing it as being a “pure-bred� when in fact it was a mixed-breed, the indictment states.

tomers would see rate decreases. Customers of its Blue Advantage and Blue Options HSA plans will be notified by letter in October what their specific rate increases will be in 2011, the company said. The latest rate hike request comes almost a month after Consumers Union criticized the Chapel Hill insurer and nine other Blue Cross health plans across the country for raising rates while sitting on big cash reserves. The company responded that it was meeting a state requirement that health insurers keep up to six months’ worth of costs in reserve. Blue Cross CEO Brad Wilson said last month Wilson said he expects to cut about $200 million from the company’s $1 billion annual budget by eliminating open positions, cutting jobs through attrition and early retirements, outsourcing and other streamlining efforts. The company employs about 4,400 workers.

CHAPEL HILL (AP) – North Carolina’s largest health insurer plans to raise prices next year on individuals paying for their own coverage by an average of about 7 percent, the smallest increase since 2007, the company said Thursday. Blue Cross and Blue Shield of North Carolina is asking state insurance regulators for permission to raise rates on about 300,000 of its 3.7 million customers who buy their own health insurance. This year, rates for individual coverage rose an average of 12 percent. Blue Cross is virtually the only health insurer in North Carolina offering policies for individuals. The company says rates for employers and other groups vary widely. The company said while some individuals will see double-digit premium increases, about 70 percent will see costs rise by less than 10 percent. Almost 28,000 cus-

“Every Bite’s a Delight�

Dad’s cheating strains her trust in boyfriend

D

ear Abby: My father is having an affair – another one. It is not the first time I have found evidence of it. I was using his computer to work on my grandmother’s memorial and an IM popped up from a woman telling him to meet her at a family event my mother was not supposed to attend. Her message to Dad was extremely sexual and very upsetting. The “other woman� is an old high school friend of my parents’ and a friend of the family. I have confronted my father in the past, even threatened to end my relationship with him if it didn’t stop. My heart breaks for Mama, but she loves Dad so much she will stand by him through anything. Somehow, I always manage to get stuck in the middle of their marital problems, and I was even blamed for their separation five years ago. This has affected my relationship with my boyfriend because I have extreme trust issues. I find myself hating my father more and more each day. Please help me before I lose my sanity. – Daughter Of A Cheater Dear Daughter: For your own emotional wellbeing you must remove yourself from the drama and dysfunction in your parents’ marriage. You cannot fix what’s wrong with it; your father doesn’t want to and your mother appears to have made peace – if you can call it that – with his infidelities. Not all men are like your father. Many men

respect women and are capable of having loving, monogamous marriages. ADVICE You need profesDear sional Abby help, and ■■■with good reason, and I urge you to get it. If you don’t, your hatred of your father may color the way you regard all men, and it will always be a problem. Dear Abby: We have some longtime friends, the “Gotrocks,� who frequently come over for dinner. When they do, they bring “house gifts� – commercially made cakes, Danish, etc. that are well past their expiration dates – then brag about how much they saved on the food. My wife and I limit our intake of sugar, high-fat and processed foods, and the Gotrocks are aware of it because we have told them, but they persist. I am offended that they would offer low-quality food that I wouldn’t serve an animal. What should I do? Accept the garbage gracefully, not serve it and deep-six it after they leave, or tell them to stop bringing it? Incidentally, money isn’t an issue here; they proudly admit they are cheap. – Offended in Pennsylvania Dear Offended: Having been put on notice that you and your wife do not consume sugary, high-fat and processed

foods, the Gotrocks already know they are bringing an inappropriate house gift. Here’s how I’d handle it: The next time they come, make a point of serving their gift to THEM for dessert – while you and your wife enjoy a healthy portion of fresh fruit. If they enjoy it – fine. If they look askance, you will have made your point. Waste not, want not. Dear Abby: How do you respond to an overweight person who says she’s fat? Or a short person who says she’s short? Or to anyone else who points out a true physical flaw that goes against today’s ridiculous standard of beauty? I am in a sorority and this happens all the time. Please don’t tell me to say that their personalities are beautiful – even if it’s true – because what these girls want to hear is that they are physically beautiful. – The Ugly Truth Fairy Dear Ugly Truth Fairy: Don’t lie. But if you’re socially adept, you’ll find something nice to say – unless you want to be as welcome as a skunk at a picnic. The girl with the weight problem may have beautiful skin or a fabulous head of hair. And the short girl may have such beautiful posture that people regard her as graceful. Get it?

Leadership is evident in community

O

ver the years I have been privileged to work alongside many outstanding leaders and have learned that there are distinct qualities of volunteer leadership that create successful nonprofits. These traits include leadership, advocacy, the ability to raise money and service. All can be taught through mentoring; anyone can learn them, and they are the keys to sustaining our nonprofit organizations. • Leadership may sound too obvious, but it is so essential and takes passion, discipline, endurance and a sense of humor. The two finest leadership examples I know are Jim Morgan and Judy Mendenhall. Both believe in establishing disciplined business plans; they are hands-on leaders, and they understand that success only comes through inspiring and mentoring. • Advocacy, the willingness to champion an organization, is a fine art, and no one does this better then Marsha Slane. Her ability to inspire through her speaking, her innate skill at gracefully building support and her genuine sense of passion is remarkable. She leads with a sense of warmth and effectiveness that creates confidence and makes you want to be on her team. • Fundraising is essential, but very few want to serve in this capacity,

as it takes a certain kind courage and nerve to ask for money. The two giants GIVING 101 in this community are Paul Bill HorLessard ney, who ■■■ has raised millions for several organizations, and High Point University’s Nido Qubein. Horney will gladly tell you he taught Qubein everything he knows. They never ask until they have given themselves. Their requests are always well thought out, and they never, ever give up. • Service is a trait that calls for a servant mindset and commitment. The most inspiring example I know is my friend Hilda Fountain, who has volunteered at High Point Regional Health System for more than 35 years. She is a very robust 101 years old, still volunteers every Friday and loves every minute of it. Leadership comes in many shapes and sizes, and it is as essential as the air we breathe. Its continued development will absolutely determine the future of our beloved community. PAUL LESSARD, a recipient of the Carnegie Hero Medal and a catalyst for the growth of community outreach programs, is president of the High Point Community Foundation, phone 882-3298.

An air boat carrying Interior Secretary Ken Salazar (right in blue cap) sits near plant life Thursday in an area that was open water two years ago before a wetlands restoration project took place in the Delta National Wildlife Refuge on the coast of Louisiana. Salazar and other federal officials led a tour to show areas of opportunity for wetlands restoration and growth in light of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill.

Study charts long-lasting oil plume in Gulf WASHINGTON (AP) – A 22-mile-long invisible mist of oil is meandering far below the surface of the Gulf of Mexico, where it will probably loiter for months or more, scientists reported Thursday in the first conclusive evidence of an underwater plume from the BP spill. The most worrisome part is the slow pace at which the oil is breaking down in the cold, 40-degree water, making it a long-lasting but unseen threat to vulnerable marine life, experts said. Earlier this month, top federal officials declared the oil in the spill was mostly “gone,� and it is gone in the sense you can’t see it. But the chemical ingredients of the oil

persist more than a halfmile beneath the surface, researchers found. And the oil is degrad-

The oil droplets are odorless and too small to be seen by the human eye. If you swam through the plume, you wouldn’t notice it. ing at one-tenth the pace at which it breaks down at the surface. That means “the plumes could stick around for

quite a while,� said study co-author Ben Van Mooy of the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in Massachusetts, which led the research published online in the journal Science. Monty Graham, a scientist at the Dauphin Island Sea Lab in Alabama who was not involved in the study, said: “We absolutely should be concerned that this material is drifting around for who knows how long. They say months in the (research) paper, but more likely we’ll be able to track this stuff for years.� The underwater oil was measured close to BP’s blown-out well, which is about 40 miles off the Louisiana coast.

WASHINGTON (AP) – The Obama administration said Thursday it is near to securing an agreement between Israel and the Palestinians to resume direct peace talks. Some U.S. officials said an announcement could be imminent. The State Department said an agreement was “very, very close� but that details were still being worked out. An announcement could come as early as today or Saturday, said administration officials familiar with the matter. They spoke on condition of anonymity due to the delicacy of the ongoing diplomacy. “We think we are very, very close to a decision by the parties to enter into direct negotiations,� State Department spokesman P.J. Crowley told reporters.

D

ear Dr. Donohue: Dairy products are a problem for me. For breakfast, 1 percent milk is fine and yogurt isn’t troublesome. Other dairy foods bother me. I am 61 and more intolerant of dairy foods now than when I was younger. Why? – Anon.

BLONDIE

Lactase is an enzyme found in the small intestine. It digests lactose, milk sugar. Infants of all animal species are born with a good supply of the lactase enzyme. They lose their supply of lactase at the time they are weaned from their mother’s milk. Most humans hold onto an adequate supply of lactase into adult life. Some, however, have so little that they find dairy products impossible to digest. Dairy products bloat these people, give them stomach cramps and can bring on diarrhea. That’s lactase deficiency or lactose intolerance. Both terms denote the same problem. The lactase deficiency is an ethnic trait. Blacks, Asian-Americans and Native Americans have less lactase in adulthood than do whites. Age causes the lactase supply to dwindle. That’s the reason you have more trouble at age 61 than you did years ago. Cheeses and yogurt are exceptions to the rule. Many lactase-deficient people tolerate them well. You can overcome the lactase deficiency problem by avoiding dairy products, by taking the lactase enzyme in

can begin reducing the sticks of gum chewed. Substitute sugarless gum for every other piece of nicotine gum you would put in your mouth. Every second or third day, increase the pieces of sugarless gum and reduce the number of pieces of nicotine gum until you are nicotine-gum-free.

■■■

The manufacturers of nicotine gum state that their product shouldn’t be used for more than three months. There’s no argument that chewing nicotine gum is far less devastating to health than is smoking cigarettes. Cigarettes contain not only nicotine but a raft of many other potentially dangerous compounds. And you are no longer assaulting your lungs – another health benefit. All the same, nicotine is not on the pyramid of things that promote better health. It constricts arteries and transiently raises blood pressure. It increases the resting heart rate, and that’s a stress the heart doesn’t need. It’s believed to encourage the buildup of plaque on artery walls. You can break your gum habit. If you can stop suddenly, do so. You might have headaches for a few days. Or you

Dear Dr. Donohue: I am a concerned grandma regarding my 21-year-old grandson. He doesn’t have any friends. He is tall and very slender. He has no ambitions. He hasn’t finished high school. I think he fears failure in anything he does. He stays in his bedroom. He appears to be on the level of a 13-yearold when it comes to social skills. When he was young, he was diagnosed with attention-deficit disorder, but refused to take any medication. He doesn’t do drugs or smoke. I think something is wrong with him medically. His upbringing was very stressful. I am not sure what kind of doctor to go to. He has no insurance. – C.P. The odds point more to psychological problems than physical problems. This young man needs help. I looked it up, and your county has a department of mental health. Start there. Explain the situation just as you explained it to me. Tell the people he has no money or insurance. You also can talk to the county medical society for any programs it might sponsor.

It’s vacation time for the president CHILMARK, Mass. (AP) – Martha’s Vineyard is barely an hour’s flight from Washington, but it felt worlds away as President Barack Obama and his family began their summer vacation Thursday amid the island’s beaches and quaint farmhouses. Instead of politicians and polls, the Obamas encountered pony farms and ponds. Instead of filibusters, the Vineyard offers fishing. And the only things getting hung out to dry were beach towels. Before escaping into all that, though, Obama had to dispatch one final duty at the White House. Underscoring the headaches he’s trying to escape, Thursday morning brought the latest batch of grim economic news – another rise in jobless claims.

Illnesses linked to eggs will likely grow WASHINGTON (AP) – A salmonella outbreak that sickened hundreds and led to the recall of hundreds of millions of eggs from one Iowa firm will likely grow, federal health officials said Thursday. That’s because illnesses occurring after mid-July may not be reported yet, said Dr. Christopher Braden,

an epidemiologist with the federal Centers for Disease Control. Almost 2,000 illnesses from the strain of salmonella linked to the eggs were reported between May and July, about 1,300 more than usual, he said. No deaths have been reported. The CDC is continuing to receive information from state

health departments as people report their illnesses. “I would anticipate that we will be seeing more illnesses reported likely as a result of this outbreak,� said Braden. The recall of 380 million eggs from Iowa’s Wright County Egg is one of the largest shell egg recalls in recent history.

WASHINGTON (AP) – This year’s federal deficit will surpass $1.3 trillion, a slight improvement over last year’s record red ink, Congress’ top budget analysts said Thursday. It gave no comfort to lawmakers struggling to balance conflicting election-season pressures to cut budget gaps, jolt the economy and reduce taxes.

With polls showing voters unhappy with growing deficits, the issue will confront legislators when they return from their summer recess in September, less than two months from elections that will determine which party controls Congress. Both partie s qu ickl y stake d ou t th e ir position s.

Walid Shoebat says he first read the Bible to discredit it but instead was converted by it.

From PLO to pulpit Former terrorist turns to Christianity BY JIMMY TOMLIN ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

J

AMESTOWN – Ask Walid Shoebat where he lives, and he cannot – no, he will not – give you an answer. “You can ask me anything you want to – millions of questions about anything – but the one thing I will not tell you is where I live,” Shoebat says during a telephone interview from his home in – well, somewhere in the United States. Such is the life of a former PLO terrorist, now living under an assumed name, in hiding from extremists who supposedly have placed a $10 million bounty on his head. Shoebat, who Shoebat will speak Sunday at Life Community Church in Jamestown, has become somewhat of a media lightning rod – in part because of his compelling testimony as a former terrorist who converted to Christianity. That will be the primary focus of Shoebat’s message Sunday morning. In addition, though, Shoebat – who has been interviewed by numerous mainstream media organizations – presents himself as an expert on Islam, a religion he denounces as evil. He has written books on the subject, including “God’s War On Terror:

Former terrorist Walid Shoebat will speak during the 9 and 10:30 a.m. worship services Sunday – and again at 6 p.m. – at Life Community Church, 4900 W. Wendover Ave., Jamestown. For more information about Shoebat, visit his website at www.shoebat.com. Islam, Prophecy and the Bible” and “Why We Want to Kill You: The Jihadist Mindset and How to Defeat It.” Despite Shoebat’s expert persona, he also has come under much scrutiny from skeptics who contend his claims of being a former terrorist are not true. According to Shoebat, he joined the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO) as a teenager and was trained to commit acts of terror and violence against Israel. “I wasn’t some big, head honcho,” he says, “but when I was a 16-year-old boy, I was recruited to deliver a bomb to a bank (in Bethlehem). I threw it on the roof and the bomb exploded, but no one was killed or injured.” He later came to the United States, where he says he was still affiliated with the PLO, helping raise money to fund the organization’s terrorist activities. In 1991, Shoebat’s opinion of the

PLO began to change. “I began to really question the motives of Palestinians,” he explains. “I saw the burning of Joseph’s tomb, the destruction of Joshua’s grave, the desecration of Jesus’ place of birth at the Nativity Church. I began to see that all of this cannot be from God – this has got to be from the pit of hell.” It was in 1993 that Shoebat became a Christian, after studying the Scriptures in an effort to debunk them, but determining instead that they are true. That’s when he says he completely turned his back on his past – not only his activities as a terrorist, but also in his relationships with others. “I was a very abusive husband,” he says. “But a few months later (after becoming a Christian), my wife said to me, ‘You’re not the husband I married – who are you?’ I said, ‘Do you want the old husband back?’ She said, ‘No, I love the new husband much better.’” Shoebat, while controversial as a media figure, says those who hear his presentations in person tend to come away with a new appreciation for Scripture. “They come out very interested in the Bible and realize how real the Bible is,” he says. “They have a different approach to reading the Bible and a different approach to life.” jtomlin@hpe.com | 888-3579

The YWCA of High Point will host a free women’s selfdefense course on Wednesday, from 1 to 3 p.m., and again on Sept. 13, from 6 to 8 p.m. The two-hour course will be taught by a High Point Police Department defensive tactics and pepper spray instructor and black belt in karate.

Cy the Cynic says that if you’re attacked by a circus troupe, go for the juggler. A similar principle applies to the defense of many contracts. In a team match, both Souths played at four hearts, and West led the ace of diamonds. East signaled with the ten. At one table, West led another diamond. South ruffed, drew trumps and led the ace and jack of clubs. West took his king and cashed the ace of spades, but South had the rest.

DAILY QUESTION At the second table, West defended well. He knew East had the king of diamonds, but if South had his three-heart bid, he probably had a singleton diamond plus solid hearts and the ace of clubs. If South had only one diamond loser, EastWest needed two spade tricks – before South drew trumps, set up the clubs and got to dummy with the king of spades. At Trick Two West went for the jugular – or the juggler – by cashing the ace of spades. When East played the jack, West led a second spade. South lost two spades, a club and a diamond.

CROSSWORD

Friday, August 20, 2010 CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Demi Lovato, 18; Amy Adams, 36; Joan Allen, 54; Al Roker, 56 HAPPY BIRTHDAY: Don’t push your luck, especially with emotional matters that can disrupt your whole life. You will walk a fine line this year and must think each matter through before taking action. There will not be a lot of second chances to fall back on. You must not let anyone take advantage of your desire to help. Your numbers are 3, 14, 21, 27, 31, 38, 49 ARIES (March 21-April 19): There is no point arguing or trying to get out of something that is expected of you. A partnership will take all the patience you can muster. Don’t look at uncertainty as a negative but rather as a long overdue – and necessary – change. ★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Take a leadership role and guide everyone you want to persuade down the road you want to travel. This is the perfect time to show what you have to offer. Be the driving force and you will reap the rewards. ★★★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): What you think is going on may not be the case. Do your homework and observe how others react. Flexibility will be required if you want to get things up and running and stay on schedule. Save your evening hours for romance. ★★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): You may be up against more opposition than you realize. Don’t overreact or you will give your position away, leaving you with little maneuverability. Your ability to give and take will help you achieve your goals. ★★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You really need a vacation or at least a change of scenery. Uncertainty regarding friends, neighbors and relatives may put you in an awkward position. Don’t take on a burden that doesn’t belong to you. ★★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You have the right to make a choice, regardless of the pressure being put on you by an old friend. To fight the inevitable is a waste of time. Your pragmatic attitude will carry you through any opposition. ★★★★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You’ll be subject to ridicule and added responsibilities. Before you take on too much, consider how it will influence you and the ones you love. A burden brought on by someone else will not help you move forward with your own plans. ★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Get rid of the people dragging you down. Look forward with optimism and clear the way for completion of a project that can make a difference to your financial future. Focus on your own pursuits, goals and happiness. ★★★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): There is money to be made and recognition to be gained. Don’t allow someone else to beat you to the finish line because you are tied up with personal matters. Don’t overspend or you may appear frivolous. ★★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You’ll encounter plenty of opposition if you try to push what you want onto others. Financial moves should be made in secret. Moderation will directly link to the degree of success you have. ★★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Do not trust others to take care of matters that need your undivided attention. The potential to make money or come into extra cash is apparent. Negotiate anything and you will get your way. ★★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): This is a day of give and take and gaining a better understanding of what’s required to reach your goals. Don’t give in to a partnership that isn’t offering equality. ★★★★

You hold: S A Q 5 4 H J 4 D A 8 6 3 C K 9 4. You open one diamond, your partner responds one heart, you bid one spade and he returns to two diamonds. The opponents pass. What do you say? ANSWER: Partner’s preference bid of two diamonds promises no more than nine points, hence game is impossible. A further bid by you, such as 2NT, would show game interest and might get you too high. Pass. If you bid 2NT, you’d suggest a hand such as A 10 5 4, J 4, A K Q 6 3, K 4. South dealer Neither side 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.

Panther women ready to kick season into gear BY GREER SMITH ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER

HIGH POINT – Getting ready to open the women’s soccer season by hosting Francis Marion tonight, the most notable returning players for High Point University are on defense while the offense features new players who are high on coach Marty Beall’s list. “The key is how we can bond together,” Beall said. The bonding is critical because of the 25 players on the roster, just three are seniors while 16 are freshman or sophomores. To help with the process, Beall had the team navigate a ropes course at the U.S. Whitewater Center in Charlotte. “We have a lot of young talent,” Beall said. “The key for us is overcoming our youth.” The Panthers gun for a play similar to their effort down the stretch last season in which they overcame a seventh-place finish in the Big South Conference regular season to win the conference tournament before losing to North Carolina 1-0 in the opening round of the NCAA playoffs. Defense was the key as HPU went 5-3-2 in the final 10 games on the strength of allowing five goals and fashioning six shutouts (including all three games in the conference tournament). The defense this time is led by Big South alltournament selections Danniel Rosado and Brielle Spencer plus All-Big South second team selection Janay Whittaker. Rosado and Rosado Spencer are penciled in as defenders but Beall said Whittaker will be used as needed on the backline or as a midfielder. Impressed by newcomers by freshmen forwards Kelli Joline and Sammy Vercellino, Beall believes that the defense will not have to carry the Panthers. Margaret Fanning, a junior transfer from Francis Marion, and another freshman Rebecca Hamby will also bolster the front line. Jones scored the only

goal for the Panthers in a 4-1 exhibition loss to UNC Greensboro last week. “Sam and Spencer Kelli are dynamic one-on-one attacking players,” Beall said. “They have the ability to beat any defender in the country.” They are so dynamic that Beall thinks offense will be the Panthers’ strong suit this season. That will be a definite change from last year, when HPU managed 10 goals in 26 games and Whittaker led the offense with three goals scored. “Our young players are talented,” Beall said. “Early I may have been worried about relying on them. But they have worked hard understanding our system.” The biggest concentration of experience will be in the midfield, where all three seniors are slotted. They include High Point Central product Rachel Parker plus Jillie Johnson and Sara Rager. Beall has moved Parker junior Katie Taber from forward to midfield to give here more attacking opportunities. Danielle Schepler, a sophomore, is the only wing with experience. Andrea Ritchie, a junior who saw considerable playing time as a freshman and became a reserve while battling a back injury last, is the starter in goal. Ritchie allowed an average of 1.04 goals per game in start two years ago. She gave up five goals in three appearances last year. “Preseason rankings don’t matter,” Beall said. “You are basing those rankings off what happened last year and trying to guess who brought in what recruits and who the returners are going to be. If I was outside the program, I would think three or four is where High Point should be. But, being inside the program, I think that we will be contending for the regular-season championship and a conference tournament championship.” gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3556

he Piedmont Triad region isn’t exactly Mayberry, but there’s still a sense of excitement when something big comes our way. Seeing a PGA Tour event return to Greensboro – no matter the golfers who may or may not show up – provides a thrill for sports fans and media alike. Those of us at The High Point Enterprise are not immune from that sense of excitement. Still, the arrival of the PGA Tour always will by tinged with sadness for us. The 2009 Wyndham Championship was the final event covered by Tom Berry before his death, which came a week prior to his 49th birthday. I couldn’t help but think of last year’s events when walking into the media center at Sedgefield Country Club this week. Given

David Toms hits from a sand trap on the 18th hole during the first round of the Wyndham Championship on Thursday. Toms trails leader Arjun Atwal by three strokes. See more tournament coverage on 4D.

Weaver has fun C

ameron Tringale signed his name on the visor as Drew Weaver stood nearby. “Would you like for me to sign that?” Weaver asked the young woman offering the souvenir filled with autographs just outside the scoring trailer. “No,” Tringale quickly interjected, smiling as he nevertheless handed the hat to Weaver. Weaver got the last laugh Thursday at the Wyndham Championship, shooting 3-under-par 67 compared to Tringale’s 1-under 69. But the former opponents in the Atlantic Coast Conference and teammates at the 2007 Walker Cup enjoyed a fun day together at Sedgefield Country Club. “It was great to play with Drew,” said Tringale, the former Georgia Tech star enjoying a solid rookie season on the PGA Tour. “I was excited just when I knew he was playing the tournament, and then we got paired together. It was pretty relaxed – just felt like another round.” Weaver, out of Virginia Tech, shared several light moments on the course with Tringale and played a relaxed round that included two birdies, a bogey and an eagle on the 7,117-yard layout. The duo reminisced about fun Walker Cup moments, shared some jokes and simply did some catching up: They hadn’t seen each other after Tringale headed to the PGA and Weaver worked his way through the eGolf mini-tour this summer. “It’s easy to get comfortable when you’re playing with someone you’re such good friends with,” Weaver said. “We haven’t played golf together since the Walker Cup. It’s nice to have somebody to talk to about things other than golf. You don’t want to be thinking about golf for five hours straight.” The 8:50 a.m. trio, which included Australian Jarrod Lyle, opened from the 10th hole in steady showers. Weaver missed a five-foot putt for birdie on his first hole, carded a bogey-5 at No. 11 – a hole Weaver said is “basically a par-5” given its nearly 500-yard length on a wet day – and bounced right back with a birdie on the par-3 12th. The highlight of Weaver’s round came at the 545-yard 15th hole. After reaching the green in two, he drained a 23-foot putt for an eagle. “That was the thing that got my round going,” Weaver said. “You’ve got to play the par-5s out here. They’re

birdie holes, so to get an extra one, that’s huge.” The round proved steady after that. The rain lessened and then stopped, replaced by thick clouds and impossibly humid conditions. Weaver finished his back SPORTS nine with pars, burned the lip with a birdie putt Steve on No. 2, tapped in at Hanf the third and fourth. On ■■■ the par-5 5th, Weaver hit a perfect drive, sent his second shot pin-high and left his 45-foot eagle putt a mere 15 inches away for a tap-in birdie. “Tap-in” was the operative word in the round, in fact. “My speed being good, I didn’t have many three-footers,” Weaver said. “Maybe one four-footer, on 18 for par, and everything else was pretty much tap-in, so I made it easier on myself than I have in the past.” The 2005 High Point Central product played in front of some two dozen friends and family members Thursday, and figures to draw an even larger gallery today. Weaver is holding a “Pink Out” today at the Wyndham in honor of his mother, Cathy, who recently completed treatments following a December breast cancer diagnosis. Weaver will wear a pink shirt in today’s round, which begins at 1:50 from the first tee, and has encouraged everyone in his gallery as well as other players and fans to wear pink in a show of breast cancer awareness. Tournament officials announced Thursday that they’ll pass out pink ribbons to tournament volunteers, staff, players and anyone else who wants to wear one. “It’s going to be incredible, to see all the support,” Weaver said. “I’m glad I’m playing well. It’ll be an added bonus to go out and make some birdies for such a great cause. I think it’s going to be a very, very powerful day.” If Weaver plays as well as he did Thursday, it’ll be a very, very good and very, very fun day once again. “It’s a good start. I certainly can build on it,” he said of his round of 3under that landed him six shots behind leader Arjun Atwal. “I’m hitting it well and I look forward to getting close to the lead tomorrow.” shanf@hpe.com | 888-3526

BASEBALL WASHINGTON ATLANTA

Tom’s 20-year career as columnist for the Enterprise, he was the point-man for our coverage of the event. I had only stopped by on the Wednesday before the tournament to pick up a credential and, as it turned out, enjoy a good lunch. Tom was working on one of his many stories that day, but took a break when I arrived. He’d already eaten, but joined me at the table for a bit. We chatted about the tournament, about how he was feeling – he was pleased that he’d gotten some of his strength and appetite back that morning after not feeling well recently. He was eager to cover the tournament and was looking forward to a doctor’s appointment Monday to pinpoint his lack of energy. We never spoke again. Tom covered the Wyndham on Thursday, Friday and Satur-

day. He arrived at the course Sunday feeling so poorly and looking so pale, from what other writers later told us, that he headed straight back home. On Monday, Tom checked into Duke Medical Center in Durham. Tuesday, it was learned that he had leukemia – a second bout with cancer in as many summers – and a bad infection to go with it. By late in the week he was on life support, and on Sunday, he was gone. The stunning turn of events occurred a week after his final story appeared in the Enterprise. Just as stunning is to realize it took place a year ago this week, a sad story forever linked to an exciting event.

Washington’s Nyjer Morgan (1) steals second base as Braves second baseman Omar Infante fields the late throw during the third inning of Thursday’s game in Atlanta. The Nationals won 6-2 to avoid a three-game sweep.

Lannan, Nats drop Braves THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

GIANTS 5, PHILLIES 2

ATLANTA – Back from the minors, John Lannan is racking up quality starts and trimming points from his ERA. Lannan pitched into the sixth inning and Nyjer Morgan had two hits in his return from the disabled list, helping the Washington Nationals beat the Atlanta Braves 6-2 on Thursday. Lannan (5-5) gave up two runs and seven hits in 51⠄3 innings, improving to 3-0 with a 3.09 ERA in four starts since he returned from a six-week stay at Double-A Harrisburg. His ERA is down to 5.13 for the season after standing at 5.76 when he was demoted. The NL East-leading Braves, who had won four straight, wrapped up a 5-2 homestand and will get a boost today when newly acquired first baseman Derrek Lee makes his first start for Atlanta in the opener of a weekend series in Chicago. Lee was acquired from the Cubs on Wednesday.

PHILADELPHIA – Jonathan Sanchez allowed just two hits while pitching into the ninth inning and Buster Posey lined a pair of RBI doubles, leading the San Francisco Giants over the Philadelphia Phillies 5-2 Thursday night. The Giants averted a sweep in a matchup of NL wild-card contenders. San Francisco stopped its three-game losing streak and ended the Phillies’ four-game winning string.

PADRES 5, CUBS 3 CHICAGO – Will Venable hit a two-run single in the seventh inning and the San Diego Padres rallied to beat the Cubs 5-3 Thursday, completing their first four-game sweep of Chicago in their 42-year history.

LEXINGTON – Davidson County Community College outlasted Guilford Technical Community College in a five-game volleyball exhibition on Thursday. The Storm won 20-25, 25-15, 25-18, 20-25, 15-10.

Leaders for the Storm included Katie Watkins (15 kills, five blocks), Lauren Leonard (12 kills, three blocks), Megan Everhart (11 kills, five blocks), Kesley Templeton (three kills), Heather Thompson (three kills) and Jackie Thompson (five kills).

Pittsburgh Pirates 4-2 on Thursday night.

YANKEES 11, TIGERS 5 NEW YORK – Robinson Cano hit a tiebreaking double and a tworun homer in New York’s nine-run sixth inning, sending Phil Hughes and the Yankees to an 11-5 victory over Detroit on Thursday.

ORIOLES 4, RANGERS 0 BALTIMORE – Rookie Brian Matusz pitched eight innings, and the Baltimore Orioles used a four-run seventh to defeat Colby Lewis and the skidding Texas Rangers 4-0 on Thursday night.

WASHINGTON (AP) – Roger Clemens was vehement: “Let me be clear. I have never taken steroids or HGH,� he told a House committee in 2008. Now, instead of the Hall of Fame, baseball’s seven-time Cy Young winner could go to prison after being indicted by a federal grand jury Thursday for allegedly lying to Congress. The case writes a new chapter in one of baseball’s worst scandals, the rampant use of performance-enhancing drugs in the 1990s and early 2000s, and leaves Clemens’ legacy in jeopardy. The six-count indictment alleges that Clemens obstructed a congressional inquiry with 15 different statements made under oath, including denials that he had ever used steroids or human growth hormone. Former Rep. Tom Davis of Virginia, the

top Republican on the House panel at the time of Clemens’ testimony, called it “a self-inflicted wound.� Clemens had been prominently mentioned in the Mitchell Report, Major League Baseball’s own accounting of its steroid problem, and he went to Capitol Hill on his own to clear his name. Clemens was sticking to his story Thursday. He insisted he was telling the truth, again denying any wrongdoing on or off the field. “I never took HGH or Steroids. And I did not lie to Congress,� Clemens said on Twitter. Clemens faces a combined maximum sentence of 30 years in prison and a $1.5 million fine, though under U.S. sentencing guidelines the recommended range of time is 15-21 months. His attorney, Rusty Hardin, had no immediate comment.

Manning, Sorgi out for Giants ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) – Eli Manning isn’t the only Giants quarterback who will miss New York’s preseason game against Pittsburgh. Scratch backup Jim Sorgi, too. Sorgi had an MRI on Thursday and was diagnosed with a torn capsule in his right shoulder that will sideline him two to three

weeks, said Matt Brei, his agent. The good news is that the injury does not involve Sorgi’s labrum, which was an issue last season. With Manning (12 stitches) and Sorgi sidelined, first-year pro Rhett Bomar is going to start and possibly play the entire game Saturday night.

BOSTON – Hideki Matsui hit a three-run homer, then drove in another run with a bases-loaded walk, and Ervin Santana took a two-hitter into the eighth inning on Thursday night to help the Los Angeles Angels snap a nine-game losing streak against Boston and beat the Red Sox 7-2.

Arjun Atwal of India hits from the ninth fairway during the first round of the Wyndham Championship at Sedgefield Country Club in Greensboro on Thursday. Atwal holds a two-stroke lead after his sizzling first-round score of 9-under-par 61.

Brandt Snedeker chips to the 18th hole during the first round of the Wyndham Championship in Greensboro on Thursday. Snedeker trails leader Arjun Atwal by two strokes after his first-round 63 at Sedgefield Country Club.

GREENSBORO (AP) – If Arjun Atwal keeps this up, he’ll have a new PGA Tour card in no time. Atwal tied a tournament record with a 61 Thursday and took a two-stroke lead at the Wyndham Championship. Matching Carl Pettersson’s 2-yearold mark at the par70 Sedgefield Country Club course, Atwal was 9 under through the first round of the PGA Tour’s final event before the playoffs. Brandt Snedeker shot a 63. John Rollins, Kevin Streelman, Lucas Glover, Boo Weekley, David Toms and Jeev Milkha Singh were at 64, and six players shot 65s during an occasionally wet day that left Sedgefield’s greens soft and its leaderboard crowded. There were a course-low 10 birdies and a course-high 54 bogeys on the freshly lengthened, 507-yard par 4 that wound up knocking several players down a peg.

Atwal, Snedeker save best for last BY STEVE HANF ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER

THE WYNDHAM NOTEBOOK: GREENSBORO – The Wyndham Championship saved its best for last Thursday, with a slew of low scores coming late in the day at Sedgefield Country Club. After players dodged raindrops in the morning, the afternoon pairings enjoyed soft, receptive greens that led to birdie binges. Arjun Atwal finished with nine birdies for a 9-under-par 61, while Brandt Snedeker birdied five straight on the back nine for second place at 7-under. “It was fun,� Atwal said. “All you had to do is hit it in the fairway and it was go from there.� Atwal, from India, tied the tournament record for lowest round set by Carl Pettersson in the second round of the 2008 event. Remarkably, he made the field only Monday after shooting a 67 in a qualifier for the final four spots at Forest Oaks Country Club. Despite having played 119 PGA tournaments and won more than $2.5 million in his PGA career, Atwal had to qualify after losing his Tour status following a shoulder injury last year. Because he’s no longer a regular member of the Tour, he can’t qualify for the FedEx Cup playoffs regardless of this week’s outcome. He only learned of that fact in the aftermath of Thursday’s round.

“I don’t really think about that anyway coming into this week,� Atwal said. “I just wanted to play well.� Snedeker, the 2007 Wyndham champion at Forest Oaks, knows from experience what kind of low numbers are needed to win this event. He shot 22-under for his two-shot victory three years ago. “I turned at 2-under-par figuring I was playing pretty good and was in 50th place,� Snedeker said of Thursday’s effort. “I realized it’s going to be a long week. Guy shooting 9-under is not going to do it for four straight rounds. It’s going to be kind of a ‘wait and get hot and take advantage of it.’ Luckily, I got hot on the back nine.�

FAST FRIENDS Jason Gore enjoyed a nice first round Thursday with a 5-under 65. He’s had a busy week at Sedgefield, including helping Kevin Harvick with Monday’s proam tournament. Gore and the NASCAR star struck up a friendship earlier this year at the Shell Houston Open, when the driver of the No. 29 Shell-Pennzoil Chevrolet was at a dinner for his sponsor. Gore asked Harvick for an autograph for his son and the duo got to chatting. They were playing golf at a charity event when Harvick invited Gore to the Phoenix race. About the time Gore was figuring out how to fly in for the race, Harvick piped up with, “I’ll send my plane out to pick

you and your family up to bring you out to Phoenix and come watch the race and we’ll turn around and take you home,� Gore said. “Good friend to have. He’s a great guy. I love to sit there and talk to him ... be watching the truck race (and) know what’s going on in a truck. I love it.�

SWINGIN’ IN THE RAIN While the threat of rain and thunderstorms was present all of Thursday – and will be around for all of the Wyndham Championship – the only golfers who battled rain were those who teed off Thursday morning. Craig Barlow, in a 7:10 a.m. grouping off the 10th tee, didn’t let the rain bother him. A consistent round that included two birdies and an eagle left him at 4under 66. “I’m soaked right now, so you were just trying to stay dry,� Barlow said. “It was the kind of rain that I don’t mind playing in because it was just a steady drizzle the whole time. Once you got wet, you just kind of rode the wave.� Jay Williamson, who posted a 5-under 65 out of his 7:20 a.m. grouping off the first tee, called it “more of a nuisance rain. At 7:40 we’re on the second tee back there, it was so dark it looked like it was 8 at night.�

Woods commits to first FedEx Cup playoff event PARAMUS, N.J. (AP) – Tiger Woods is playing the first FedEx Cup playoff event with hopes that it’s not his last. Woods on Thursday officially entered The Barclays, which starts Aug. 26. It’s the first of four playoff events that conclude with the Tour Championship and a $10 million prize to the winner of the yearlong FedEx Cup competition. Woods is No. 108 in the standings, and he is likely to go further down the list depending on what happens this week at the Wynd-

ham Championship. Only the top 125 players are eligible for The Barclays, which will be played at Ridgewood Country Club. Woods did not play Ridgewood the last time the tournament was held there in 2008. He missed the FedEx Cup playoffs that year while recovering from knee surgery, the only time he did not claim the $10 million prize since the series began in 2007. Now, the goal is simply to get to as many playoff events as he can. After The Barclays, only the top 100 are eligible for the second 10463 N.

Woods has said he wants to play, and Pavin said that Woods is “high on my list.� Players are grouped at The Barclays based on their FedEx Cup standings, and Pavin is currently at No. 107. However, he said last week he is unlikely to play Ridgewood because of a busy summer schedule.

ing in when it comes to making the top 125 and landing in the FedEx Cup playoffs, which begin next week at The Barclays. Mike Weir is among the biggest names in that list, sitting 126th. He got off to a nice start when it comes to earning some of the Wyndham’s FedEx Cup points with an opening 3-under. “I need to play well. This game is always about pressure, whether it’s getting into the playoffs, trying to get in the Tour Championship, trying to win the tournament,� said Weir, who has battled tendinitis in his elbow this season. “I want to keep playing. ...

Myers closes in on Bowman Gray title SHORT TRACK NOTEBOOK:

A

ll that Burt Myers needs to do to win his fourth Bowman Gray Stadium championship is stay out of trouble in Saturday night’s 150lap season finale. Myers holds a comfortable 56-point lead over Brian Loftin and is 71 ahead of Wallburg’s Lee Jeffreys and 83 in front of Tim Brown. On most nights, anything over a 50-point lead would be enough to assure Myers the title. But, the finale pays double points with a drop of four per position, requiring Myers to finish with 14 positions of Loftin, 17 of Jeffreys and 20 of Brown to win the title. The battles are much closer in the Sportsman and Stadium Stock divisions. In the Sportsman race, Kyle Edwards leads his older brother Barry by 34 points and Ryan Robertson by 39 with five other drivers mathematically eligible as Ronnie Clifton’s reign appears to be at an end. Clifton is in seventh place and 60 points (a difference of 15 spots) behind Kyle Edwards. Robbie Brewer, Taylor Branch, Derek Stoltz and Kevin

Neal are the other drivers with a shot. Six drivers are in the Stadium Stock mix, with Jason Keaton leading last year’s champ Dale Barneycastle by 22 points with Jimmy Absher SPORTS another six back. Keaton needs to finish no more Greer than five sports behind Smith Barneycastle, seven ■■■behind Basher, 11 behind Wayne Hill, 13 behind A.J. Sanders and 20 behind Gerald Robertson. David Sumner of Trinity won’t repeat as Street Stock champ, but did pick up his second win of the season last Saturday. Matt Cotner is almost assured of the crown, needing to finish within 18 places of Bill Gregg and 20 places of Zack Clifton.

BIG GAIN Most of Travis Swaim’s lead in Caraway Speedway’s Late Model Stock standings disappeared Saturday when he finished 12th, while Jason

York drove to his fourth victory of the season, The turn of events enabled York to slice Swaim’s advantage to just six points with three points races left. Dan Moore also remained in contention as he finished fifth to pull within 22 points of Swaim. Alex Yontz, Ryan Wilson and Robert Tyler finished second through fourth. Pete Stewart was 10th and Harrison Rhodes of High Point 13th. Rhodes did win the Legends Car race. Junior Kendrick of Thomasville finished fourth in the Limited Late Model race but lost just two points of his lead, which shrank to 42 over third-finishing Noah Triplett. Ross Dalton picked up his second victory of the season. Glenn Chriscoe Jr. gained just two points on Scottie York, leaving York with a 22-point advantage after he finished third with Chriscoe second behind winner Ray Chrsicoe. Richard Jones is 34 ahead of Andrew Schill is U-Car after Jones came in fourth and Schill sixth in a race won by Zack Bralley. Darrin Free won the Pure Stock race. Caraway is idle this week, but

returns to action on August 28 with a NASCAR Southern Modified Tour/ Late Model Stock doubleheader.

SPARK PLUGS Earl Pearson Jr. finished second with Brad Neat 12th last Saturday at Florence, Ky., in a successful debut for cars build in-house by Bobby Labonte’s dirt-track team in Archdale. Pearson, who has won seven times this season, lost the lead coming out of turn four on the next-to-last lap. He is third in Luca Oil series standings with 11 races left. ... Clint King finished fifth in the UARASTARS race won by Brennan Poole on Saturday at Kingsport. Tenn. King is eighth in points. ... NASCAR announced Keith Rocco, who races at three tracks in Connecticut, can’t lose its national short-track points championship even though races through Sept. 19 count. NASCAR said Rocco owns the title because he has accumulated the maximum 810 points in his best 18 finishes and was the first to score 45 points in all of the 18 wins counting toward standings. gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3556

Busch savors another Bristol Truck win BRISTOL, Tenn. (AP) – Kyle Busch won his third straight NASCAR Truck race at Bristol Motor Speedway on Wednesday night. Busch, who won the pole position for the O’Reilly 200, was relegated to a 35th at the start because of an engine change after qualifying. It took him only 91 laps to power his way from the back of the field to the race lead. The No. 18 Toyota driver then appeared to be cruising until a seventruck crash on lap 198, put the race into overtime and a green-white checkered restart. With his fuel level low, Busch was able to hold off Aric Almirola for his 19th Truck Series victory in 77 career starts. “It ran out of fuel on the second-to-last restart and it ran out on the last restart,� Busch said. “I was worried.� Behind the two Toyotas was Ron Hornaday Jr. in third in a Chevrolet and Mike Skinner fourth in a Toyota. Busch sliced his way through the field, pass-

By lap 56, he had moved to second place and 35 laps later, he inherited the lead from Skinner who made a pit stop. It was Busch’s seventh Bristol win overall with

three wins in the Sprint Cup Series and one win in the Nationwide Series. Points leader Todd Bodine, who came into Wednesday’s race looking for a third straight victory, finished fifth. Soon after Busch crossed the finish line,

Matt Crafton and Austin Dillon crashed at the exit of turn four, leading to a post-race confrontation between the two drivers’ crews. “They were upset,� said Crafton, who finished 10th. “I can understand why they’d be upset. The

last thing I wanted to do was to wreck him.� Dillon, who finished 17th, was still upset minutes after the accident. “Coming off the corner, he kept pushing me and pushing me. I couldn’t save it,� Dillon said. “There was no need to

tear up a bunch of trucks like that.� Sprint Cup Series star Ryan Newman passed seven-time Modified champion Mike Stefanik with 20 laps to go to win a 150-lap race for the NASCAR Modified Series earlier in the evening.

WINSTON-SALEM – The Wake Forest football team went through its second scrimmage of the preseason on Thursday afternoon at BB&T Field. The Demon Deacon offense took on the defense in the 90-minute session and ran 97 plays. “I thought we had great energy again today,� said head coach Jim Grobe. “The kids are playing real hard. At times, both sides did some good things. There were too many big plays given up by the defense. I don’t like to see the big plays given up. You want to make the offense earn everything. Then I thought the offense, at times, did some really good things both running and throwing the football. “A little give and take on both sides and not anything to be disappointed in on either side. As a head coach, you’re happy when both sides have a little success. If one side is stunning the other, then you’d be concerned.

But at times the offense looked good and at other times, the defense looked special. We still have some work to do. We’ve worked these guys really, really hard.� Brendan Cross led the Deacon quarterbacks, with 11 completions on 13 attempts for 104 yards. Cross also rushed for 61 yards and three touchdowns. The Deacons scored on three of Cross’ first four drives. Freshman Tanner Price went 9-of-16 passing for 116 yards and a touchdown. Skylar Jones completed 8-of-12 pass totaling 99 yards, and also ran the ball seven times, including a 65-yard touchdown run. Ted Stachitas rounded out the Wake quarterbacks with five completions for 107 yards and a touchdown. Grobe emphasized that the quarterback race is far from settled. Chris Givens had a big day with 5 carries for 93 yards, with a long of 58, and also had two receptions. Fullback Jordan Garside carried the ball seven times for 43 yards.

Leading indicators rise 0.1 percent NEW YORK (AP) – A private research group said its gauge of future economic activity edged up in July, suggesting growth will be sluggish for the rest of the year. The Conference Board said Thursday that its index of leading economic indicators rose 0.1 percent last month after dropping 0.3 percent in June. Economists polled by Thomson Reuters had expected a gain of 0.2 percent. Businesses aren’t building up their stocks as quickly as they did after the recession ended. Consumers are saving at higher rates and spending less.

Sears Holdings loss narrows by half

Jobless claims hit 9-month high WASHINGTON (AP) – Employers appear to be laying off workers again as the economic recovery weakens. The number of people applying for unemployment benefits reached the half-million mark last week for the first time since November. It was the third straight week that first-time jobless claims rose. The upward trend suggests the private sector may report a net loss of jobs in August for the first time this year. Initial claims rose by 12,000 last week to 500,000, the Labor Department said Thursday. Homebuilders and other construction firms are laying off more workers as the housing sector

slumps after the expiration of a popular homebuyers’ tax credit. State and local governments are also cutting jobs to close large budget gaps. “The rise in initial jobless claims over the past three weeks makes it difficult to maintain confidence in the recovery and suggests the labor market is backtracking more than we first expected,” Ryan Sweet, an economist at Moody’s Analytics, wrote in a note to clients. Stocks tumbled on the fear of more layoffs and weak job growth. The Dow Jones industrial average fell 150 points in morning trading. Broader indexes also declined. Jobless claims declined steadily last year from a

peak of 651,000 in March 2009 as the economy recovered from the worst downturn since the 1930s. After flattening out earlier this year claims have begun to grow again. “This is obviously a disappointing number that shows ongoing weakness in the job market,” said Robert Dye, senior economist at the PNC Financial Services Group. Dye said that claims showed a similar pattern in the last two recoveries, but eventually began to fall again. The current elevated level of claims is a sign employers are reluctant to hire until the rebound is well under way. That’s what happened in the recoveries following the 1991 and 2001 recessions,

which were dubbed “jobless recoveries.” The increase suggests the economy is creating even fewer jobs than in the first half of this year, when private employers added an average of about 100,000 jobs per month. That’s barely enough to keep the unemployment rate from rising. The jobless rate has been stuck at 9.5 percent for two months. The four-week average, a less volatile measure, rose by 8,000 to 482,500, the highest since December. The number of people continuing to receive benefits fell by 13,000 to 4.5 million, the department said. The continuing claims data lags initial claims by one week.

GM plans stock offering

CHICAGO (AP) — Sears Holdings Corp. cut its second-quarter loss by more than half as profit margins perked up at its Kmart chain, the retailer led by billionaire Edward Lampert said Thursday. Still, the company’s results fell short of expectations as competition increased and weak shopper spending amid a tough economy, especially on food, led to a decline in an important revenue measure.

Oil prices retreat on economic news NEW YORK (AP) – Oil prices slumped Thursday after a series of new reports reinforced signs of listless U.S. economic growth in the months ahead. Benchmark oil for October delivery fell 93 cents to $74.85 a barrel in morning trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange.

Greece intensifies tax crackdown ATHENS, Greece (AP) – Dodging the taxman could have been described as Greece’s national sport for years. But with the state desperate for income, the head of the country’s financial crimes squad says it’s time to blow the final whistle on the practice. Checks are intensifying on bars, clubs and restaurants, as well as for owners of yachts, luxury cars and expensive homes with swimming pools, Ioannis Kapeleris, head of the squad, known by its Greek acronym SDOE, told the AP Thursday. Tax evasion is one factor behind the Greece’s financial difficulties that have left the country suffering a massive budget deficit, leading it to seek rescue loans from the International Monetary Fund and European Union.

But that doesn’t include millions of people receiving extended unemployment insurance, paid for by the federal government. About 5.6 million unemployed workers were on the extended unemployment benefit rolls, as of the week ending July 31, the latest data available. That’s an increase of about 300,000 from the previous week. During the recession, Congress added up to 73 extra weeks of benefits on top of the 26 weeks customarily provided by the states. The number of people on the extended rolls has increased sharply in recent weeks after Congress renewed the extended program last month. It had expired in June.

Intel to buy McAfee SAN FRANCISCO (AP) – Intel Corp. is making the biggest acquisition in its history with the $7.68 billion takeover of computersecurity software maker McAfee Inc., an expensive example of Intel’s commitment to serve an increasing array of Internet-connected devices. The deal, announced Thursday before the market opened, will help Intel improve the security of its chips by sharpening the software that goes into them. It also opens a new revenue stream for Intel, which will sell security software alongside new chips it’s developing for devices such as mobile phones, televisions and

even cars. Intel is the No. 1 maker of microprocessors for personal computers and servers. The $48-per-share price represents a 60 percent premium over McAfee’s Wednesday close of $29.93. McAfee shares surged $17.17, or 57 percent, to $47.10 in midday trading Thursday. Intel shares slipped 63 cents, or 3.2 percent, to $18.96. Intel, which is based in Santa Clara, Calif., said security is now a fundamental component of online computing, but today’s approach to security isn’t adequate for the growing availability of Internet connections on mobile phones, medical devices, ATMs, auto-

mobiles and elsewhere. The industry needs a new approach that combines software, hardware and services to meet tomorrow’s needs, the company said. “With the rapid expansion of growth across a vast array of Internet-connected devices, more and more of the elements of our lives have moved online,” Intel CEO Paul Otellini said. “In the past, energy-efficient performance and connectivity have defined computing requirements. Looking forward, security will join those as a third pillar of what people demand from all computing experiences.”

Otellini said the idea to acquire McAfee grew out of a close collaboration that’s been going on for a year and a half, one that will result in unspecified products reaching the market next year. On a conference call with executives, UBS analyst Uche Orji questioned Intel’s rationale for the deal, wondering if it would get something out of owning McAfee that it couldn’t get through a collaboration. Otellini responded that owning McAfee meant Intel could plan for the longer term and combine the two companies’ technologies at a deeper level, adding substantial value.

DETROIT (AP) – Thirteen months ago, General Motors was fighting for its life in bankruptcy court. Now, the automaker is laying the groundwork to sell stock to the public once again with the eventual goal of ridding itself of government ownership. General Motors Co. filed the first batch of paperwork required to hold an initial public offering of stock late Wednesday. The 700-page document submitted to regulators laid out reasons, and risks, to investors considering buying GM stock. The filing, called an S1, was short on specifics. GM didn’t say how many shares would be sold or when, although experts say the IPO could come as early as October. It also didn’t say how many shares GM’s majority owner, the U.S. government, plans to unload. Such a sale would eventually lead to the government shrinking its big stake in the automaker, something GM is eager to see. The company’s outgoing CEO, Ed Whitacre, has said government ownership has hurt GM’s public image and sales. However, GM warned in its filing that the U.S. Treasury would continue to own a “substantial interest” in the automaker following the IPO. More details about the offering is likely to emerge with additional filings in the coming weeks and months.

Workplace deaths fall to 18-year low WASHINGTON (AP) – The number of workers who died on the job fell by 17 percent last year to the lowest level in nearly two decades, as workers logged fewer hours during the recession, the Labor Department said Thursday. The 4,340 workplace fa-

talities recorded in 2009 was the smallest total since the Bureau of Labor Statistics first began tracking the data in 1992. It’s the second straight year that fatal work injuries have reached a historic low, following a 10 percent drop in 2008.

High unemployment and layoffs in more dangerous industries like construction played a major role in the decrease, the agency said. The construction unemployment rate is 17.3 percent, nearly double the overall jobless rate of 9.5 percent.

and at Staples all we can do is focus on things we can control.� The nation’s biggest office supply chain said Tuesday that net income for the three months ended July 31 rose 40 percent to $129.8 million, or 18 cents per share, from $92.4 million, or 13 cents per share, last year. Net income was 20 cents per share excluding a restructuring charge. That matched analyst expectations, on average, according to a poll by Thomson Reuters. Revenue was nearly flat at $5.53 billion. That was shy of the $5.64 billion analysts predicted.

As consumers and businesses cut back on all but the most-needed office supplies, Staples has been trying to take customers from competitors in other areas. The company said its “facilities and break room� category, which provides things like toilet paper and snacks, mainly to its corporate clients, was doing well. At retail stores, revenue rose 2 percent to $2 billion. Software, copy and print and tech services had strong revenue, while sales of biggerticket items like business machines and furniture were weak.

Program aims to fill jobs MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

WINSTON-SALEM – U.S. Sen. Kay Hagan sees a job-certification program at Forsyth Technical Community College as a model for the entire country. “It’s all about jobs, jobs, jobs,� Hagan said. “We’ve got to turn this economy around.� She toured the campus this week to learn about the college’s welding and machining classes, which are part of a jobtraining program called the National Association of Manufacturing — Endorsed Skills Certification System. Forsyth Tech is one of four colleges in the country to participate in the program, which issues nationally recognized credentials. The college

offers program credentials in four curriculums: machining technology, mechanical-engineering technology, welding, and industrial-systems technology. Since November 2009, 107 Forsyth Tech students have been issued national certifications. John Golden, the coordinator of manufacturing programs at Forsyth Tech, said that the credentials provide an added level of credibility to the education process. “When you’re traveling through the streets of Winston-Salem and you cross a bridge, I think you would feel more comfortable knowing that the welding that was done to the structure of that bridge was done by a certified welder,� Golden said.

Broadband stimulus to help WinstonNet MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

WINSTON-SALEM – A nearly $1 million grant from the federal stimulus program may provide a kick-start to the WinstonNet broadband initiative. And for some residents of Davie and Yadkin counties, a $21.7 million award will give them faster Internet service and online-television programming options within three years. The grants were announced this week by the governor’s office as part of $115 million that North

Carolina received for five broadband projects from the second round of stimulus money. The state has received $255 million altogether in stimulus money for broadband projects. Along with $696,000 in matching contributions, the $926,537 grant is likely the largest for WinstonNet, which was begun in 2001 to help bridge the technology divide among lower-income residents by providing computer labs and tutoring. The grant would be used to upgrade workstations and provide equipment for 38 public computer centers.

NEW YORK (AP) – Stocks tumbled Thursday after two disappointing economic reports renewed investors’ concerns about the pace of the recovery. The Dow Jones industrial average fell 144 points. All the major stock indexes fell more than 1 percent. Interest rates also fell sharply as investors moved back into the safety of Treasury bonds. The Labor Department said initial claims for unemployment benefits rose unexpectedly last week and the Federal Reserve of Philadelphia said manufacturing activity in the mid-Atlantic region has dropped during August. “The Philly Fed number was just awful,� said Randy Frederick, director of trading and derivatives at Charles Schwab. “The jobs number was bad, but not as far off the mark as the Philly number.� The pair of economic reports followed news that Intel Corp. was acquiring McAfee Inc. The deal, valued at $7.68 billion, was not enough to offset the weaker economic readings. The reports are the latest in a months-long string of conflicting readings on the economy. The reports have shown the pace of a rebound is slowing and that companies are skittish about adding new workers.
