Hurricane relief: Local company produces, prepares buses for crisis situations
Storm weakens, remains powerful
BY PAM HAYNES ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

ARCHDALE – When Hurricane Katrina hit the Gulf Coast five years ago, Ed Sartin saw there were no emergency vehicles being produced that were capable of treating patients on-site in the middle of a mass crisis. Now, when a storm like Hurricane Earl threatens coastal towns, vehicles produced in Sartin’s own facility in Archdale rush to the scene. Five medical ambulance and evacuation buses, as Sartin they’re formally called, rolled into Sartin Services on Old Mendenhall Road on Thursday for routine checks and preparations as Hurricane Earl approached the North Carolina coast. Sartin, owner and founder of the company, began producing the buses in 2006. He refers to them as “emergency

Buses from state EMS services are prepped at Sartin Services before heading to the coast during hurricane season. rooms on wheels,” and he said they’ve filled a void in the bus industry. “It’s a real niche market,” he said. “We’ve seen a huge increase in demand for them. We just had an order from Chicago (Wednesday) for six of the buses.” To create the vehicles, the company, a manufacturer and installer of specialty vehicle products, renovates school buses to resemble the inside of a medical facility. Stretchers that attach to the walls like bunk beds line the interior, which also is equipped with a huge stock of
medical supplies and a germand virus-resistant floor. Oxygen tanks and a generator capable of powering the bus for days at a time are stored in the cargo area. “If this thing is in a disaster site, we could run it and power up four other things at the same time,” he said about the capability of the generators. “It’s really helpful to (emergency services personnel).” Sartin said he became passionate about making the vehicles after reading about a group of nursing home residents on the Gulf Coast who died during Hurricane Katrina because
they weren’t evacuated before the storm hit. “I said to myself, ‘We can figure out a way to get those people out on time if it happens again,’” he said. Buses from Guilford County, Wake County, Mecklenberg County and New Hampshire were among the ones serviced Thursday as their medical teams prepared to deploy to areas at risk of being hit by Hurricane Earl. The company performs the routine service checks at the beginning of every hurricane season. “If any of those storms hit land, the government or FEMA could call them up,” he said about the buses. phaynes@hpe.com | 888-3617
BUXTON – The last ferry left for the mainland and coastal residents hunkered down at home as Hurricane Earl closed in with 110 mph winds Thursday on North Carolina’s dangerously exposed Outer Banks, the first and potentially most destructive stop on the storm’s projected journey up the Eastern Seaboard. The first bands of heavy rain hit the long ribbon of barrier islands Thursday night. The downpours started in several bursts as the storm’s rain shield whirled into the southeasternmost tip of the Outer Banks. Hurricane Earl’s winds were slowing, from 140 mph early Thursday to 110 mph, Category 2 strength, by 8 p.m. But forecasters warned
DAVIDSON COUNTY – Davidson County commissioners will apply for additional federal stimulus funds to build a new middle school in the northern part of the county. Commissioners voted unanimously to apply for the low-interest Qualified School Construction Bonds that were authorized by the federal government through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. With $50 million remaining in QSCB, the county had between Sept. 1 and Sept. 8 to apply. Davidson County could be eli-
gible for up to $10 million in federal stimulus bond funds, according to Assistant County Manager Zeb Hanner Jr. “They are interest-free bonds,” Hanner told commissioners Thursday. Commissioner Billy Joe Kepley called the potential of the county receiving additional bond money a “godsend.” If the county receives the bond money, the deadline for bond issuance was originally set for Dec. 31, 2010. Hanner said the he learned through the N.C. Department of Public Instruction that under extenuating circumstances, the county could get an extension.
“I think it gives us another option for funding,” Commissioner Fred McClure said. “I don’t have a problem with it.” According to Hanner, Davidson County already has been appropriated $3 million in QSCB for construction of the middle school. Estimates have the cost of a new middle school between $16 million to $24 million. Hanner said staff will be reviewing how the entire project could be financed, either through the general fund or borrowing money, before a proposal is submitted to commissioners. “I am personally committed to building that school because we
are very overcrowded up there,” said Max Walser, chairman of the Davidson County Board of Commissioners. “I think everybody is.” Serving the Ledford/North school districts, the 137,000-squarefoot school is proposed to be located on Midway School Road near the Hoy Long Road intersection. Commissioners agreed to buy 133 acres in April at a price of $2.35 million for a new middle and high school. The Davidson County Board of Education last month approved a preliminary design and floor plans for the new middle school. dignasiak@hpe.com | 888-3657
City to inspect fire stations for mold BY PAT KIMBROUGH ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
HIGH POINT – All city fire stations will be checked after what officials termed minor mold problems were recently discovered at one facility. Fire Station 12 at 4538 Barrow Road was closed Aug. 27 after two forms of mold were confirmed on the dormitory side of the building, according to the city. The station’s personnel have been assigned to other locations while crews clean the facility and prepare it to re-open, possibly in the coming days. Mold growth in buildings can occur in areas where heat and high hu-

Mold can pose health hazards, such as upper respiratory congestion, coughing and headaches. Two other fire stations were checked in response to complaints about possible mold there, but nothing was found. The remaining 11 stations will also be evaluated for the presence of mold.
“I asked (city officials) to investigate each of our other fire stations for possible mold problems, just to be sure,” said City Manager Strib Boynton. “A third party came in and also looked at it. Sometimes a different set of eyes might be helpful. They advised us we’re doing everything we could do.” Contractors began cleaning up the Barrow Road station last weekend, and have replaced flexible air ducts and acoustic ceiling tiles. Surface cleaning of the entire area was performed and air scrubbers were used to treat the air in that part of the station. The results of air and surface samples could be known today, and

if they are negative, the station could then be re-opened. One of the station’s ladder trucks was taken out of service after the closing last weekend. It was put back in service at station 10 on Whites Mill Road on Monday. The other facilities checked so far include station 13 at 2414 Ambassador Court, where stained ceiling tile was reported. Crews found rusted air vents in a shower, which will be replaced with a different kind of vent for that space. Air samples have been taken but no evidence of mold had been reported as of Thursday. pkimbrough@hpe.com | 888-3531

Their stilted home nearby was boarded up for protection, but Lopez didn’t want to take any chances at the house and didn’t want to make the long drive away from the barrier islands when home could be accessible early Friday. “With the kids, it’s just safer to be over here,” she said.

BUXTON (AP) – A two-story Comfort Inn has become a makeshift hurricane hostel on North Carolina’s Outer Banks for those who want to stay close to their homes but know they need better shelter from the outslaught of Earl. Billy Parker, 55, chose to stay so he could keep an eye on his treasured property, but wasn’t taking any chances with his family.

Hurricane could snarl travelers’ holiday plans FROM PAGE 1
that it remained powerful, with hurricaneforce winds of 74 mph or more extending 70 miles from its center and tropical storm-force winds of at least 35 mph reaching more than 200 miles out. National Weather Service meteorologist Hal Austin said the eye of the hurricane was expected to get as close as 55 miles east of the Outer Banks about 2 a.m. Friday. The coast is expected to be lashed by hurricane-
force winds for a couple of hours. Earl’s arrival could mark the start of at least 24 hours of stormy, windy weather along the East Coast. During its march up the Atlantic, it could snarl travelers’ Labor Day weekend plans and strike a second forceful blow to the vacation homes and cottages on Long Island, Nantucket Island and Cape Cod. It was unclear exactly how close Earl’s center and its strongest winds
would get to land. But Federal Emergency Management Agency Administrator Craig Fugate said people shouldn’t wait for the next forecast to act. “This is a day of action. Conditions are going to deteriorate rapidly,” he said. Shelters were open in inland North Carolina, and officials on Nantucket Island, Mass., planned to set up a shelter at a high school on Friday. North Carolina shut
down ferry service between the Outer Banks and the mainland. Boats were being pulled from the water in the Northeast, and lobstermen in Maine set their traps out in deeper water to protect them. Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick and Rhode Island Gov. Donald Carcieri declared a state of emergency. Similar declarations have also made in North Carolina, Virginia and Maryland.

ON THE SCENE
FRANKLINVILLE – Fire gutted a large portion of a historic mill Thursday morning, leaving preservationists wondering what their next step will be. It’s believed the fire was the result of arson. Franklinville Fire Chief Kyle Dixon, asked if it was set, responded, “Arson? Oh yeah. There’s no power to the building. Investigators are here. Hopefully, they’ll find out what happened.” Dixon said the call came in from the 911 Call Center in Asheboro at about 4 a.m. Thursday. “It was totally involved except for the section (planned as a museum) with about $30,000 worth of equipment. We’re trying to save that. ”It was a pretty impressive fire,“ Dixon said.

One problem firefighters faced was finding enough water to throw on the blaze. Dixon said they drained the town’s water sytem of approximately 300,000 gallons within the first hour and a half. Then they depended on tanker trucks from all over the county to bring in water from Asheboro. ”I wouldn’t be surprised if we use 800,000 or 900,000 gallons,“ he said. Crews and trucks were at the site from Eastside, Climax, Ulah, Staley, Seagrove, Westside, Tabernacle and Liberty. Asheboro sent water to the scene. Cindy Wilkins, a volunteer with the Conservancy, said plans are to develop a ”living museum with functioning equipment. It’s southern textile history. There’s so much history here. So many people worked here.“

NYC mosque controversy isn’t about TV ratings Charles Honeycutt (Your View, Aug. 30 “Fox keeps mosque controversy brewing for ratings”) is wrong about the New York City mosque controversy! The GOP and Fox News have nothing to do about opposition to the site of the mosque near the World Trade Center site, and Honeycutt’s assertion that they do is both shallow and silly. Opponents’ relationship to the WTC site is as President Lincoln said of the Gettysburg battlefield, “We cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate, we can not hallow this ground. The brave men ... who struggled here, have consecrated it far above our poor power to add or detract.” Obviously Honeycutt doesn’t, but many folks around the world recognize that certain symbols would detract from hallowed grounds. For example: (1) U.S. citizens presently oppose construction of a casino near the Gettysburg battlefield, (2) Pope Benedict recently stopped construction of a Catholic facility near Auschwitz concentration camps, (3) The French would not allow

Washington hosted vastly different events Saturday Last Saturday gave us two similar, yet very different events in Washington. There was Glenn Beck’s “Restore Honor” event and Al Sharpton’s “more of the same” event. Joining Beck was the Rev. Martin Luther King’s niece Alveda, who gave a wonderfully inspiring speech. One of his three honorees was a Houston minister who was with King 47 years ago. The entire day was upbeat, spiritual and 99.9 percent free of political rhetoric. Even NBC, the Obama Network, estimated the crowd at 300,000.
Later, we had the race hustler Sharpton talking about “us” and “them,” not “we” as with the Beck rally. Sharpton came off as petty, jealous and divisive, traits he likes to assign to, well, Beck! Alveda King even staunchly defended the Beck event against Sharpton’s pettiness when both later appeared with Geraldo. The media gave us their obligatory “It was mostly a white crowd.” The last time I checked, we were a mostly white country! The fact that it was mostly a white crowd says more about the black community than it says about Beck’s uplifting event. Perhaps they should stop listening to race hustlers who have become wealthy with their politics of racial division while their followers have seen little if any improvement in their lives. I later saw videos of Sharpton’s much smaller event and noticed that most attendees were black, even though blacks comprise only about 13 percent of the country! Perhaps Sharpton rally
attendees should have joined Alveda King and the numerous other members of the black clergy that graced Beck’s event! They could have joined in to sing our national anthem and God Bless America, helped celebrate the bravery and sacrifice of our troops and seen that the event raised $5.5 million to send to college the children of our special ops personnel who died in service to this country!

Eight plaques placed strategically in the downtown area will help you comprehend the lasting legacies of these High Point Heroes. As expected, there was a strong turnout among families of the honorees and presenters as well as a cross section of High Pointers for what was a first-class presentation ceremony at Mendenhall Station Monday, the result of a small army of volunteers and funding from the High Point Convention & Visitors Bureau. One other name that you should remember is Aaron Clinard, chairman of the High Point Downtown Improvement Committee and The City Project. Monday’s dedication ceremony and the placing of the plaques throughout the center city High Point Market district have been Clinard’s dream for more than a decade and his passion for much of the last four years. It is because of Clinard’s persistence that this community has its first class of High Point Heroes. What an outstanding idea for an easy-teach, different type of history lesson! It still is to be determined how often deceased persons who have “made a positive name outside of the city, at the state, national or international level” will be inducted into High Point Heroes. Regardless, the project is off to a wonderful start!
What an outstanding idea for an easy-teach, different type of history lesson!

When will Obama take border security seriously?
T
he shocking discovery of 72 murdered Hispanic migrants on a ranch just south of the U.S. border should be a wakeup call to all Americans that the security of our beloved nation begins at home. Here in Arizona, we have seen firsthand the bloody consequences of the crime and violence being imported by criminal aliens across our borders. Peaceful Phoenix has been transformed into the kidnapping capital of America. A cadre of dedicated state and local officials has attempted to quell the violence. The result has been to watch these local leaders be sued, investigated and harassed by the police powers of the Obama administration. When will this insanity end? The migration of farm workers in the 1950s and 1960s was transformed into a migration of construction workers, maids and restaurant workers in the 1970s and 1980s. But the character of the immigration has changed again, and we ignore these changes at our peril. Criminal gangs now control the border. Drugs, human trafficking, robbery, extortion and smuggling are profitable motivators escalating violence on both sides of the border. Until the borderlands of the American Southwest are policed and under the control of authorities, these inexplicably brutal conditions will persist. The drug cartels must be destroyed, and the only way to accomplish this is with serious intervention, manpower and high-tech weaponry. Obama and his minions ignore the brutality, the pain, the suffering and the long-term consequences of allowing these gangs safe haven in the hopes of scoring political points with immigrant voters. This issue isn’t about the civil rights of migrants – this issue is about keeping all Americans safe regardless of nation of origin. This massacre only came to light because a wounded Ecuadorean escaped. With a bullet wound in his neck he struggled to a nearby highway to find a Mexican military roadblock. He told authorities that the migrants’ abductors identified themselves as Zetas. Zetas are a drug gang whose control of parts of Mexico is so bru-
tal even many Mexicans avoid traveling on public highways near their territory. Amnesty International has called the plight of the migrants crossing from Mexico to the U.S. a major world crisis. Their report called our border “one of the most danOPINION gerous in the world,” and said every year an untold number Mary Beth Brown of migrants disappear without Floyd Brown a trace. ■■■ Mass unmarked graves near the border hold the key to a complete accounting of these horrors. Now, Mexican authorities are trying to determine whether the 72 victims in Tamaulipas were killed at the same time – and why. We may never know. The future is becoming clear. If the United States doesn’t reverse course and begin to take border security seriously, then these gangs will slowly increase their power in the U.S. They are already said to control several U.S. prisons, and neighborhoods in Phoenix and Los Angeles. The Obama administration’s harassment of local and state officials attempting to secure the border must end immediately. Instead, the Justice Department and the Department of Homeland Security should be assisting these duly-elected local officials in the difficult task. Everyone must work together. Violence must be met with the swift hand of justice. If we use fences, armed drones and patrols to secure the border of Iraq, we need to use that same technology and knowhow on our own border. The primary objective of the United States government is to protect our citizens from foreign enemies. These criminal gangs are foreign enemies is every sense.

Hopeful sign: More talks for Israel, Palestinians
AP
From left, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, and Special Mideast peace envoy George Mitchell arrive for the opening session of face-to-face peace talks hosted by the U.S. Thursday at the State Department in Washington. 14 and 15 in the Middle East, probably at the Egyptian Red Sea resort of Sharm el-Sheik, with Clinton and Mitchell attending. The two also agreed to meet roughly every two weeks after that – sometimes with U.S. officials present, other times not. Mitchell offered no timeline for agreeing on the initial framework, which he said was to be “less than a full-fledged treaty� but more detailed
than a statement of principles. A major obstacle is looming: Israel’s moratorium on Jewish settlement construction in the disputed West Bank is due to expire Sept. 26. The Palestinians have said that unless the freeze is extended, the fledgling peace talks will collapse in short order. In his public remarks Thursday, Netanyahu made no reference to an extension; Abbas called

Relatives: 9/11 groups should put political issues aside NEW YORK (AP) – Both supporters and opponents of a proposed Islamic cultural center should stand against rallies planned for the anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks, groups representing some relatives of attack victims said Thursday. Protests on that day would be “disrespectful to all who see 9/11 as a day outside of politics, when we desire to remain united in honoring the lives and the courage of our many friends and loved ones,� the groups said in letters sent to developers of the Islamic center and to those planning to protest it. The messages were signed by representatives of the Tribute WTC Visitor Center, the September 11th Families Association, MyGoodDeed and others. Two rallies are planned for the day: one against the center and one against anti-Islamic bigotry. Organizers of both say they will be respectful.

Montgomery County Fire Chief Richard Bowers said Thursday that officials took the devices from a home. They were in addition to four devices that hostage-taker James J. Lee had brought with him during the hostage ordeal on Wednesday in Silver Spring, just outside the nation’s capital.

WASHINGTON (AP) – In an early sign of promise, Israeli and Palestinian leaders pledged Thursday in a cordial first round of talks to keep meeting at regular intervals, aiming to nail down a framework for overcoming deep disputes and achieving lasting peace within a year. As their facilitator-inchief, Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton urged Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas to rise above the suspicion and skepticism that has blocked peace efforts for decades. “By being here today, you each have taken an important step toward freeing your peoples from the shackles of a history we cannot change,� she said. The eventual aim is the creation of a sovereign Palestinian state beside a secure Israel. Thursday’s results, in the first face-to-face peace talks between Israelis and Palestinians in nearly two years, were modest – and acknowledged as such by all sides. There was no detailed negotiation on any substantive issue, according to George Mitchell, the administration’s special envoy for Mideast peace, who held months of preparatory talks and was a participant in most of the day’s discussions. Netanyahu and Abbas will meet again on Sept.

THOMASVILLE – Davidson County and Thomasville officials provided updates on their respective governments during the annual Thomasville Area Chamber of Commerce’s State of the City and County on Thursday. In front of other government officials, community and business leaders at Colonial Country Club, Thomasville City Manager Kelly Craver and Davidson County Board of Commissioners Chairman Max Walser delivered remarks at the annual event sponsored by Time Warner Cable. Speaking on city government finances, Craver said the city’s general fund has vastly improved over the last five years. “This was accomplished by a balance of revenues, as well as expenditure cuts,” the city manager said. “Over 20 employees have been cut in the prior five years. However, different from other cities, our services have remained stable. We have not cut back any services. We have reorganized. We worked smarter, and we have outsourced some

Officials dispute complaints about mold neglect BY PAT KIMBROUGH ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
HIGH POINT – City officials on Thursday disputed the notion that complaints about possible mold in fire stations were disregarded. City Manager Strib Boynton said a minor problem at the Barrow Road station similar to the mold found there last week was reported in July involving a different part of the building. Boynton said it was false to claim that Chief David Taylor did not address the problem earlier this summer. “The problem was promptly corrected then, even though the blogs and e-mails will lead one to think it was not corrected when reported. The problem was corrected when identified, and the problems we learned about last week were also promptly addressed,” Boynton said. The inspections of the Barrow Road station, as well as two other stations thought to have possible mold issues, were initiated by firefighter complaints. “If some of the firemen are all upset at the chief,

that’s too bad. I think the chief has dealt with this in a fairly quick and responsive way,” he said. “We care about the welfare of our employees, and when the mold problem was mentioned, we quickly got on it.” In addition to stations on Barrow Road and Ambassador Court, crews have evaluated Station 4, a new facility at 930 Old Winston Road. After a heavy rain, ceiling stains were reported in the building. The roof was repaired by the building contractor and the ceiling tile was replaced, according to the city. A condensation leak in the bathroom area of the station was found as the source of some stained ceiling tiles. To correct the problem, the contractor will install additional insulation to the ductwork, which is expected to be completed by the end of the week. No mold was discovered at the station, according to the city. pkimbrough@hpe.com | 888-3531
Agriculture for the sewer improvements. Walser said Davidson County is in good financial shape in “a lot of ways.” He said the recession was supposed to be over in the fourth quarter of 2009, but many residents in the county are still feeling the impact of it. “I don’t think a lot of people feel like it was over because we have 11.7 per-
cent unemployment as I speak as of today,” Walser said. “... I don’t think we have felt that as hard as we are going to feel because many of those people are on unemployment and that’s going to run out eventually and then we are going to have some issues in this county.” Noting the county hasn’t had to lay off employees and cut services
like other counties, he said Davidson County is moving forward. He said commissioners meet in closed session during almost all of their meetings to discuss giving incentives to companies. “It’s working,” he said. “You can argue all day about incentives, but that is part of the ball game.” dignasiak@hpe.com | 888-3657
Agency leader says mergers can work BY DAVID NIVENS ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
GUILFORD COUNTY – Any new way of providing services for the county’s most needy people will work if county officials work hard enough to make it happen, a top county administrator told a new task force Thursday. Department of Social Services Director Robert Williams said consolidated human service agencies can work as well as standalone departments. Williams came to Guilford County in 2007 following administrative stints in Texas and Florida. In Florida, he was a district administrator for the Department of Health and Rehabilitative Services and directed health and social services in five counties while supervising a tuberculosis hospital. “We should do no harm to the taxpayers and the people we serve,” Williams told the group. “Whatever the structure, the bottom line is that things will work if the players want it to work.” The Guilford County Board of Commissioners formed the task

The state mandates many services through the agencies and provides compensation. Guilford Center, the county’s mental health administrative agency, could take on more clients outside the county because of state-mandated consolidations. The agency provides some basic services directly and contracts for most others. “We cover fewer than 70,000 people, and the state may want us to

Commissioners formed the task force around the existing efficiency committee, chaired by Democratic Commissioner Carolyn Coleman. Republican Commissioner Steve Arnold of High Point also attended the session. The group will meet weekly at least through November, when commissioners want at least a preliminary report. dnivens@hpe.com | 888-3626

Former officer convicted of stealing from Salvation Army MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE
STATESVILLE – A former Statesville police officer said he will fight his conviction for stealing a weight bench from outside of the Salvation Army Thrift Store. Iredell County District Court Judge Deborah Brown convicted Brian Joyner of misdemeanor larceny Wednesday morning. “We will appeal,” Joyner said as he left the courtroom. Brown sentenced Joyner, who has no previous criminal record, to 45 days and suspended that for 12 months and ordered Joyner to perform 24 hours community service at the Salvation Army. Joyner admitted taking the weight bench
from outside the Salvation Army on July 18 while he was on-duty and placing it in the trunk of his patrol car. He then took it to his home. Two women, walking by the Salvation Army Thrift Store, witnessed Joyner place the weight bench in his car, and one called the SPD and spoke to the on-duty supervisor, Sgt. Tommy Chipman . Chipman took the stand Tuesday and testified that, in response to the call, he called Joyner and asked about the weight bench. “He told me, yes he had it,” Chipman said. Chipman instructed him to bring it to the police department. Joyner, Chipman said, indicated the weight bench was near a Dumpster and he believed it to be trash.

Man pleads guilty to killing 2nd child HILLSBOROUGH (AP) – A North Carolina man who would have been eligible for parole in November after serving a life sentence for killing a girl has pleaded guilty to raping and killing another girl. Multiple media outlets reported that 61-year-old George Richard Fisher pleaded guilty Wednesday in Orange County court in Hillsborough to first-degree murder
in the death of 7-yearold Carrie Wilkerson of Carrboro in 1984. He also pleaded guilty to first-degree rape and first-degree arson. Fisher was serving a life sentence for sexually assaulting and killing 8-year-old Jean Fewel of Chapel Hill in 1985. District Attorney Jim Woodall says Fisher would have been eligible for parole soon if not for the new convictions.

Families seek infant death answers housing units on Fort Bragg since January 2007. On Tuesday, military officials announced that all 10 deaths are being reviewed to determine if they might be connected. So far, though, officials said the investigation has turned up no common thread – other than location – linking the cases in any way. Outlaw said she finds that hard to believe. She choked back tears Wednesday as she described over the phone the shock of finding her daughter dead. “I didn’t know what to do,� Outlaw said. “I was frantic. That’s something I’m always going to live with for the rest of my life.� The baby died during an extended visit with Melissa Pollard, Gray’s daughter, and her soldier husband in the Ardennes neighborhood on post, Outlaw said. Cody Frey, Ka’Mya’s father and Outlaw’s fiancee, is Melissa Pollard’s brother. It was only months after the Pol-
lards’ son, Jay’Vair, died suddenly, but Outlaw never thought her child might be at risk. The baby never even had a cold before visiting Fort Bragg, Outlaw said. The Pollards only found out several weeks later, after speaking with neighbors, that a third baby whose family had been living in the same housing unit died unexpectedly two years earlier while at an off-post baby-sitting service. “When we learned that, that’s when we knew there had to be something going on in that house,� Outlaw said. “My daughter was healthy before we went up there. It can’t just be a coincidence.� Jamie Hernan, the lawyer representing Outlaw, Frey and the Pollards, has been pressing Fort Bragg officials and Picerne Military Housing representatives to release the results of environmental tests conducted at the house, but they have refused, he said.
Lighthearted courtship becomes wedded drudgery
D
ear Abby: I have been married to my second husband, “Greg,� for 31⠄2 years. Before we married, Greg took me out on dates, we had wonderful conversations and a satisfying sex life. Now I spend every weekend cleaning, and when I clean the upstairs, Greg goes downstairs. If I clean downstairs, he goes upstairs. He says he loves me, but it seems we have become more like roommates than husband and wife. Greg buys big-ticket items (big-screen TV and a computer, for example) without telling me. In fact, he never discusses anything with me. Do you think he married me only to cook and clean for him? Before you suggest counseling, let me point out one more thing: Greg is a psychologist. – Searching For Normal in Pennsylvania Dear Searching: It appears you married a man who was terrific at sales and poor on follow-through. Because someone is a psychologist does not automatically make that person a good spouse, or parent – or even a particularly effective therapist. You two have a serious communication problem. You need to tell him how you feel, and he needs to tell you why he’s avoiding you and won’t allow you to have a voice in “big� decisions. And I AM suggesting counsel-

Dear Dear Abby: I Abby have been ■■■going out with an older man for a year and a half. He is very nice and makes me laugh. He has a lot of faults, but I can tolerate them except for one – he cheated on both of his ex-wives. He has had affairs with his friends’ wives, his employees and his customers. He even told me he slept with another woman the night before his wedding to his second wife. He likes to flirt, and women like him because he has a great sense of humor. I love his company and we get along well – most of the time. He says he’s sorry for his past behavior, but I’m not convinced he really is. I’m afraid he will do the same with me if he has the chance. I have spoken to him about my concerns. He says he is “different� now. I have been hurt by men before, and I really don’t want to have another emotional disaster. What can he do to gain my trust? – Hesitant in San Francisco Dear Hesitant: Probably nothing. Face it

The baby died that morning while sleeping in his motherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s arms at their home on Fort Bragg. The boyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s grandmother, Lori Gray, said she had never cried so hard in her life. That was until three months later, when another of her grandchildren, 7-month-old Kaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Mya Frey, died while taking a nap in the same home on the military post. The infant was standing in her crib and smiling just hours before her mother, Bianca Outlaw, found the baby cold and lifeless lying face-up on the mattress. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That was it for me,â&#x20AC;? Gray said Wednesday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I fell completely apart after that.

Bowling with an aneurysm shouldn’t pose danger; but ask your doctor
D
ear Dr. Donohue: I am a 73-year-old woman. I have an abdominal aortic aneurysm. I have sonograms regularly. I am in a bowling league. I bowl each week. My bowling ball weighs 10 pounds. Should I bowl? My last ultrasound shows that the aneurysm is 3.8 cm. – F.S.
BLONDIE
Your doctor is the only one who can answer your question with authority. He or she knows all the circumstances of your health. However, I can tell you that most people with an aneurysm of your size are encouraged to be active. Lifting heavy weights is discouraged. A 10-pound bowling ball isn’t considered a heavy weight. The size of an aneurysm determines its risk of breaking apart and bleeding profusely. Aneurysms smaller than 4 cm are not in danger of suddenly rupturing. When an aneurysm reaches 5 to 5.5 cm, then surgical repair is recommended. You are quite a distance away from the danger zone. For readers: Aneurysms are bulges of an artery wall, and are weak spots.

followed their instructions. I have taken medicines that ease the pain. HEALTH My back isn’t as Dr. Paul sore as it Donohue once was, ■■■ but it still bothers me. Acupuncture has been suggested. What are your views on it? – M.L. I have no misgivings about trying acupuncture for pain relief. The Chinese have used it for centuries. Any treatment that lasts that long must have some value. Fine needles are inserted into the skin at specific points and are left in place for 15 to 30 minutes. From time to time, the acupuncturist stimulates the needles. The American College of Physicians and the American Pain Society endorse acupuncture. A recent review article in the New England Journal of Medicine, a premier medical journal, also endorsed it. Who am I not to follow suit? Dear Dr. Donohue: How do I get a doctor to correct or change his written report? Twice in my 77 years I have pointed out incorrect statements in their records.
Each time I was told they could not change anything once it appears in their written report. There must be a way to correct an error, especially before sending the report to other doctors. Do you have any suggestions? – G.J. I do have a suggestion. The doctors are afraid of changing information because such changes can be damaging to them if the records are required in any legal proceedings. However, they can make a current note in the chart, explaining how previous information in the record was not correct. That’s not going to get them into any trouble. It seems to me that not doing so would get them into trouble. If the doctors balk at this, ask them to talk to a lawyer. Tell them you are preparing a document that states what the correction should be and that you will send it to any doctor to whom your current doctor sends your records. That should motivate your doctor to act. DR. DONOHUE regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but he will incorporate them in his column whenever possible. Readers may write him or request an order form of available health newsletters at P.O. Box 536475, Orlando, FL 32853-6475

T.I.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s comeback could be derailed by arrest THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
After finishing a sentence for weapons charges earlier this year, T.I. was poised to have the comeback of the fall. The multiplatinum rapper starred in the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s No. 1 movie, recently married his longtime girlfriend, taped a music special for VH1 and was wrapping up a new album. But after an arrest Wednesday in California, there are questions about whether heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s returning to the music charts or prison. The Grammy-winning hitmaker, who is on three years of probation, was taken into custody with
wife Tameka â&#x20AC;&#x153;Tinyâ&#x20AC;? Cottle on suspicion of possessing methamphetamines T.I. after police pulled over their vehicle in West Hollywood. They were released on $10,000 bail early Thursday. While charges have yet to be filed, the case has the potential to put one of musicâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top names behind bars yet again. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Known as the â&#x20AC;&#x153;King of the South,â&#x20AC;? T.I is a top name in hip-hop, and pop. Born as Clifford Harris, he sold millions of albums since his debut.
Appeals court sets hearing in Jackson estate case LOS ANGELES (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; A California appeals court has scheduled a hearing for Michael Jacksonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s father to argue he deserves a role in his sonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s estate. The Second District Court of Appeal on Thursday set an Oct. 6 date for Joe Jacksonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s attorneys to argue his case. Michael Jacksonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 2002 will omitted his father.
A ruling after the 2009 death of the pop star placed his attorney John Branca and family friend John McClain in charge of his affairs. Joe Jackson appealed the ruling in November. Michael Jacksonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s estate has earned tens of millions of dollars since the singerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s death at age 50.

This time, the Coast Guard said there was no leak, and no one was killed. The Coast Guard initially reported that an oil sheen a mile long and 100 feet wide had begun to spread from the site of the blast, about 200 miles west of the source of BPâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s massive spill. But hours later, Coast Guard Cmdr. Cheri Ben-Iesau said crews were unable to find any spill. The company that owns the platform, Houstonbased Mariner Energy, did not know what caused the explosion.

Good and faithful servant Former High Pointer Pat Hunt retires as chaplain at Virginia’s Mary Baldwin College BY JIMMY TOMLIN ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
W
hen Sara Hunt’s daughter, Pat – at the time a schoolteacher – told Sara she wanted to go to seminary, her motherly instincts kicked in. “I said, ‘Pat, I don’t think there’s going to be much of a market for women ministers,’” Sara recalls with a chuckle. “And she said, ‘I don’t want to be a minister, but I want to go to the seminary if Daddy will send me.’” This was the early 1970s – when the idea of women being ordained was relatively new – but Pat’s father, the late Dr. Jack Hunt of High Point, agreed to send his daughter to Union Theological Seminary in Richmond, Va. Nearly four decades later – including her recently concluded 25-year stint as chaplain of Mary Baldwin College in Staunton, Va. – Pat, an ordained Presbyterian minister, believes she made the right decision. “I think I ended up where I needed to be,” she says during a telephone interview from her home in Staunton. Pat, who grew up in High Point before enrolling in a prep program at Peace College and then getting her degree from Wake Forest University, was teaching school in Charlottesville, Va., when she felt called to go to seminary.
“I taught junior high school for three years,” she says, “and if that won’t drive you to your knees, nothing will.” Hunt graduated from seminary in 1976 and was working in new church development in Memphis, Tenn., when she learned of the opening for a chaplain at Mary Baldwin College in 1985. “I wasn’t sure I was interested in moving,” she says, “but I had worked part time at Rhodes
‘I taught junior high school for three years, and if that won’t drive you to your knees, nothing will.’ The Rev. Pat Hunt College in Memphis, and I liked being around students and being around people who liked reading books.” So Hunt applied for and landed the job, and she loved it. Eventually. “It took a while,” Hunt says. “You know, when you take a new job, you’re not always sure at first, but I liked it better and better as I went along. I knew more how to approach the job after the first two or three years.” Hunt came to enjoy the honest

discussions she had with students who were, as she puts it, “looking for clues as to how you get through this life.” During her quarter-century at Mary Baldwin, Hunt created the acclaimed Quest program of spiritual exploration, which encourages students to pursue spiritual meaning through religious growth, intellectual honesty and service to the community. “The Quest program brings together students from different religious backgrounds, and we just discuss life as it’s really lived and how that life is informed by our faith traditions,” she explains. “Life just doesn’t come with an instruction book, so we’re on an exploration of how to live this life well.” Hunt retired from her position at the end of June. At Mary Baldwin’s commencement ceremonies in May, Hunt was one of two individuals to receive the college’s prestigious Algernon Sydney Sullivan Award, which recognizes excellence of character and service to humanity. In addition to writing a weekly newspaper column for The News Virginian in Waynesboro, Va., Hunt has published a book of her sermons and prayers. She’s considering writing another book in her retirement, after first taking some time for herself.
Across the country, communities are preparing events for Active Aging Week, the annual health promotion event of the International Council on Active Aging (ICAA) that will be held Sept. 20-26. Joining an Active Aging Week celebration is a perfect way to get out of the house, learn new things, meet others and maybe even win a raffle prize. As the World Health Organization states, “active aging” means optimizing opportunities for health, participation and security in order to enhance quality of life as people age. That’s what Active Aging Week is all about: giving people 50 years and older a chance to experience this year’s theme, “Be active your way.” Hosts in the local community organize the events to make sure they are appealing and appropriate. You’ll find: • Workshops on health topics, from Alzheimer’s disease to lowfat cooking • Walks, strolls and rolls • Health fairs • Special demonstrations of exercise classes • Music and theater performances (and participation) • Games and challenges If you want to join an Active Aging Week event, find a list of host sites on the ICAA website – www.icaa. cc, click on the Consumer section, then Active Aging Week.

CROSSWORD
Friday, Sept. 3, 2010 CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Shaun White, 24; Garrett Hedlund, 26; Charlie Sheen, 45; Eileen Brennan, 78 HAPPY BIRTHDAY: Change is upon you and, like it or not, you must deal with whatever comes your way. Showing you have what it takes to deal with matters effectively will speak volumes about your character and what you have to offer. Emotions will be difficult to contain and should be handled with dignity. Don’t let past problems resurface. Your numbers are 2, 10, 19, 22, 25, 31, 42 ARIES (March 21-April 19): Be careful how you handle personal matters. Someone you are close to will have trouble relating to what you want. Stick to what you can do on your own to avoid disputes. Get away from home for the day. ★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Discuss any emotional matters that need addressing before you carry on with your plans. Dealing with friends, children or your lover will all lead to a greater understanding. Working alongside others will help you reach your goals. ★★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You don’t have to say a word. In fact, avoid talking and you will get much further ahead. Focus on developing some of your ideas that can turn a profit. Take a serious approach to whatever you do. ★★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): Travel, love, romance and seeking adventure should all be scheduled in. Relaxing or enjoying a little pampering will pay off. Don’t let someone else’s burden become your own when you should be taking care of your own interests. ★★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Redecorate or look at real estate or make a residential move. Change is good and will help you sort out some of the problems you have faced in the past. A unique idea will allow you to turn negative relationships into positive and prosperous connections. ★★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Discussing your plans with others will drum up interest in what you are trying to pursue and bring about possible customers or partnerships. You can move toward your goals quickly, but don’t give too much away. ★★★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Being limited emotionally by a set of circumstances you face will lead to anger, upset and disputes. Rethink your strategy. Follow through on your own if you feel strongly about what you want to do. ★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Give more thought to financial matters. It’s important to take care of business and help an older family member in order to obtain control of your financial future. By implementing new ways to take advantage of what the system offers, you will get ahead. ★★★★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): It’s what you do to help others that will count. Show compassion and offer your services. Don’t test the one you love or push your beliefs on others. If you cannot pursue something on your own, perhaps you aren’t ready to travel down that path. ★★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Don’t let someone from your past drag you into a situation you have faced before. Limitations will occur if you are trying to learn something new or while traveling to unfamiliar places. Don’t let your vulnerability or uncertainty cost you. ★★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Someone you owe emotionally, financially or personally will be ready to collect. Don’t try to avoid what needs to be taken care of. Once you clear the debt, you can move forward. ★★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Use your creative ideas to turn a profit. What you have to offer, along with a tempting presentation, has potential to position you for success. There is a lot to gain by handling fairly what needs doing. ★★★★★

Some people have climbed the ladder of success. Unlucky Louie walked under it. Today’s deal from a money match cost Louie $15 through no fault of his own. At one table North-South played at 3NT undoubled, and West led a normal diamond. South won with the ten, forced out the ace of clubs, and had three clubs, four hearts and two diamonds. Louie was South at the other table and had the misfortune to have Ed, our club’s best player, sitting East. When NorthSouth bid tentatively to 3NT, Ed doubled to suggest a spade opening lead. He had dummy’s spades tied up and knew from the auction that North-South had no extra strength.
HOROSCOPE
DAILY QUESTION
MINUS 500
You hold: S K J 9 8 H K 6 2 D 8 4 C K J 9 5. Your partner opens one diamond, you respond one spade, he raises to two spades and you try 2NT. Partner next bids three clubs. What do you say?
West duly led a spade: jack, queen. Ed shifted to a diamond: queen, king. A second spade went to the nine and ten, and Louie finessed with the ten on the next diamond, losing. Ed got the ace of spades and the ace of clubs, and Louie was minus 500. Combined with the other North-South’s plus 600, it was a 15-IMP loss – at a dollar an IMP.
ANSWER: Partner’s bidding suggests a weak, distributional hand with only three-card spade support. Since your king of hearts seems to be wasted opposite a singleton, rule out any chance for game. Pass. Partner may hold A 6 4, 4, A Q 7 6 3, Q 10 7 6. South dealer Both sides vulnerable
ONE STAR: It’s best to avoid conflicts; work behind the scenes or read a good book. Two stars: You can accomplish but don’t rely on others for help. Three stars: If you focus, you will reach your goals. Four stars: You can pretty much do as you please, a good time to start new projects. Five stars: Nothing can stop you now. Go for the gold.
Rare baby A black rhinoceros at the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo receives a gentle nuzzle from her daughter as she feeds at the zoo in Cleveland. The baby weighed nearly 65 pounds at birth and will gain 3 to 4 pounds a day until she is 6 months old. Black rhinos, native to Africa, are the most endangered of the five rhino species.

Deacs douse Presbyterian BY GREER SMITH ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER
WINSTON-SALEM – Any doubts about the outcome were settled early Thursday night. Doubts about how Wake Forest will fare against top-flight Division I competition still remain. Even with a rookie quarterback starting, the Demon Deacon quickly proved they were too much for Presbyterian – the second-year Football Championship Subdivision member from the Big South that went 0-11 last year. The Demon Deacons built a 21-point lead on their first two possessions behind starter Ted Stachitas and a turnover to remove any double about the outcome and cruised to a 53-13 victory over the Blue Hose in the season opener for both teams at half-full BB&T Field. The
53 points was the most for the Deacons in a home game since 1951. “We made some mental mistakes,” Grobe said. “We’ve got some smart guys. We’re trying some new things on offense and defense and we’ve got to do a better job making sure they learn everything.” But, questions remain about the Deacons quarterback situation after Demon Deacon coach Jim Grobe went to freshman Tanner Price in the third quarter even though Stachitas engineered four touchdown drives as they Deacons built a 35-7 halftime lead. Grobe went deeper on the bench to Skylar Jones and Brendan Cross in the closing minutes. “We had a comfortable lead and wanted to get Tanner some playing time because we didn’t want his first action to come against an ACC team (week from
Saturday against Duke),” Grobe said. After the Deacons went up 21-0 on a 34-yard scramble by Stachitas, a 14-yard sweep by Josh Adams and Alex Frye’s 44-yard interception return in the first eight minutes of the first quarter, Stachitas had his struggles until the closing minutes of the second quarter. He looked unsure at times when he went back to pass, overthrew receivers and lost a fumble. Thanks to the running of Tommy Bohanon, the Deacons got untracked and put together a drive that ended in Brandon Pendergrass’s 16-yard run. On the final possession of the half, Stachitas did come through with his best completion of the night, hitting Marshall Williams with a 23-yard strike that set up a 3-yard scoring run by Josh Harris. Grobe said that Stachitas’ play wasn’t the reason

HIGH POINT – It took Drew Adams and the High Point Central offense the first quarter to find any sort of rhythm. Once they did, the Bison exploited a weakness in Lexington’s secondary and enjoyed a field day through the air. Adams went 13-for20 passing, tallying 241 yards and a touchdown, to lead Central to a 24-15 victory over the Yellow Jackets on Thursday at Simeon Stadium The Bison were able to overcome 133 yards rushing from MarQuez Grayson and a pair of scoring strikes through the air from Lexington quarterback Al Challenger to get the win. Challenger had two prime opportunities to take the air from Central’s sails. The first came with a 6-0 lead and the ball inside the Bison 8-yard line, but the senior signal-caller fumbled the football over to Adams, who took full advantage. Adams completed three passes for 86 yards on
what was a game-changing drive for Central. A 56-yard bomb to Desmond Lee set up a beautiful 10yard fade route to Derek Grant in the corner of the end zone, with Austin Miller’s PAT giving the Bison their first lead at 7-6. Lexington then answered with a swift, fiveplay drive punctuated by a 60-yard TD from Challenger to Grayson. A disastrous drive ensued for Central and ended with a safety when the ball was snapped over punter Miller’s head and through the end zone, leaving the Jackets with a 15-7 advantage. The Bison defense clamped down on Challenger’s offense in the second half and did not allow Lexington to score again. The Yellow Jackets threatened with about eight minutes to play in the fourth quarter, but on fourth-and-goal from the 1-yard line, Challenger fumbled the snap and Central recovered. A big special teams play minutes earlier put the Bison ahead to stay. Aaron Leach blocked Tracey

Wake Forest running back Josh Adams dives over the goal line to score a 14-yard touchdown during the first quarter of Thursday night’s game against Presbyterian College in Winston-Salem. The Deacons cruised, 53-13. for playing but it could have been if Stachitas had not rebounded after the fumble. Stachitas threw for just 84 yards and ran for 79 as the Deacons rushed for 285 in the first half. They finished with 415 rushing and 95 passing. Price failed to direct a scoring possession in the third quarter, partially a victim of two dropped passes that would have
gotten first downs and Deacon running backs failing twice to pick up first downs in short yardage situations. The drought ended with 11 minutes left when Devon Brown bolted 85 yards, the fourth-longest TD run in Deacon history. Brown led the Deacs with 91 yards. Price completed just one of seven passes for seven yards and ran for 17.

Eric Gordon scored 21 points and the United States pulled away after a sluggish first half to beat Tunisia 92-57 Thursday in its final game of pool play at the world championship in Istanbul. With nothing to play for, the Americans sleepwalked through most of the early start, leading the winless team by only four points early in the third quarter before turning it into a rout over the final 15 minutes. The U.S. (5-0), seeded first in Group B, next plays on Monday against Angola, the No. 4 seed from Group A. Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook each scored 14 points for the United States.

High Point Central’s Desmond Lee (85) makes a catch for 56 yards over Lexington’s Clyde Boyd during Thursday night’s game at Simeon Stadium. Jackson’s punt inside the 5 and Johnathan White recovered the ball in the end zone to give the Bison a 1715 lead. Leach tacked on a late scoring run to ice the game.
Central (3-0) plays at Greensboro Smith next Friday, while the Yellow Jackets (1-2) travel to North Rowan.

igh Point Central and Lexington got a one-day jump on the rest of the area with their game last night at Simeon Stadium. But there’s still plenty of great prep football action on tap tonight. Southwest Guilford looks to go 3-0 for the second consecutive season with a win at Ledford. High Point Christian Academy, meanwhile, plays host to Village Christian at 7 p.m. in the first-ever varsity home game for the Cougars. No truth to the rumor that Village uses People as its nickname. I doubt they’ll stay at

the Y-M-C-A after the game. It’s not that far to Fayetteville. Speaking of trips, Thomasville hits the road for the third straight week with a game at A.L. Brown. The Bulldogs (2-0) should keep some extra gas money handy as they must go to Albemarle on Sept. 10 before taking the field at Cushwa Stadium for the first time in 2010 on Sept. 17 against Davie County. While Thomasville’s Bulldogs aim to remain king of the road, Trinity’s Bulldogs head to King to battle West Stokes. A pair of Davidson County schools clash in Welcome as East meets North.
You can throw the record book out the window when cross-county rivals collide, but please don’t, as you never know who or what you might conk on the noggin. And how’s this for a head-scratcher? Both T.W. Andrews and Grimsley look to avoid losing at Simeon Stadium for the second straight week when they line up tonight. The Red Raiders suffered a Thursday night home loss to Charlotte Country Day, while the Whirlies were walloped by High Point Central on Friday. Enjoy the action everybody!

Jackson was honored before Game 1 of Seattle’s best-of-3 Western Conference final against defending champion Phoenix. Also, the Storm’s Brian Agler was named the league’s coach of the year. Jackson, a 6-foot-5 forward from Australia, averaged 20.5 points and 8.3 rebounds while helping the Storm to a 28-6 record — tying the record for the most wins in a season. Jackson, selected by the Storm with the first overall pick in the 2001 draft, was previously league MVP in 2003 and 2007. She joins Sheryl Swoopes (2000, ’02, ’05) and Lisa Leslie (2001, ’04, ’06) as only three-time selections.

Woods looks to keep going in FedEx Cup NORTON, Mass. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; A chart of FedEx Cup standings at the Deutsche Bank Championship showed Tiger Woods at the top, not unusual considering he was won the cup and its $10 million prize every year he has played. This chart was different. It listed the 10 players who are on the bubble at the TPC Boston, starting with Woods at No. 65 through Josh Teater at No. 75. Only the top 70 after this week will advance to the third round of the playoffs at the BMW Championship, where Woods is defending champion. Woods might be showing signs of turning around. One tournament is not enough to declare Woodsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; game is back, although his tie for 12th at The Barclays was his best finish since June. Plus, it got him into the second round of the FedEx Cup playoffs. Matt Kuchar is No. 1 in the FedEx Cup standings on the strength of his victory last week to open the four-tournament playoffs. Steve Stricker is No. 2 and the defending champion at the TPC Boston.

Sabathia, Yankees baffle Aâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK â&#x20AC;&#x201C; CC Sabathia pitched one-hit ball for eight innings to earn his major leagueleading 19th win, fillin Curtis Granderson homered twice and New York beat Oakland 5-0 on Thursday for a four-game sweep. Sabathia (19-5) gave up Mark Ellisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; clean single leading off the second. Jonathan Albaladejo completed the combined one-hitter in the ninth. Sabathia has won 16 straight decisions at Yankee Stadium. Granderson hit a solo homer and a two-run shot as a replacement for Nick Swisher, who left after one inning because of a stiff left knee. Jorge Posada also homered a day after an animated ejection, propelling the Yankees to their sixth straight victory. Dallas Braden (9-10) left
in the sixth inning with heat-related cramps. He allowed two hits and slowly walked off trailing 1-0. He was coming off a four-hit shutout at Texas.

The Mets, who had dropped three straight, broke a 13-game stretch in which they scored three runs or less against the NL East-leading Braves. Tim Hudson (15-6) lost for the first time in nine starts after allowing eight hits and four runs â&#x20AC;&#x201C; three earned â&#x20AC;&#x201C; with one walk and four strikeouts in seven innings. Santana (11-9) left after five innings, his shortest outing in 23 starts.

NMPA Hall adding trio BY GREER SMITH ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER
MOTORSPORTS NOTES: Former Cup champion Dale Jarrett, famed crew chief and engine builder Waddell Wilson and renowned journalist Tom Higgins make up this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s National Motorsports Press Association Hall of Fame class. All three were selected on more than 65 percent of the ballots cast by NMPA members to earn induction into the Hall of Fame, which is located at Darlington Raceway. Induction ceremonies are scheduled in January. Wilson was selected on 70 percent of the ballots. Higgins was selected on 68 percent and Jarrett on 66 percent of the ballots. Those who received votes but did not reach the 65-percent mark for induction were Tiny Lund, Joe Gibbs, Hal Hamrick, Les Richter, L.D. Ottinger, Lloyd Moore, Donnie Allison, Len Wood, Jim Hunter and Louise Smith.
CARAWAY RACES STABLE The battle for Caraway Speedwayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s late model championship remained relatively unchanged as contenders Dan Moore, Travis Swaim and Jason York finished 1-2-3 in a 150-lap feature last Saturday. Swaim increased his lead over York to eight points, while third-place Moore moved within 18 of the lead. Mack Little III prevailed in the 30-lap Limited Late Model event, with Josh Lowder of Thomasville second and Junior Kendrick of Thomasville fourth. Kendrick is 44 points ahead of Noah Triplett.
Daniel Hemric won the Legends race, followed by Keven Wood and Luke and Hoyt Demis. Scottie York got his sixth Super Mini-Truck victory of the year and upped his lead over race runner-up Glenn Chriscoe Jr. to 24 points. Richard Jones finished fourth in a U-Car race and was left 32 points ahead of Andrew Schill, who finished third and gained two points. Zack Bralley won the event.
MODIFIED NUMBERS The NASCAR Southern Modified Tour makes its first visit to Langley Speedway in Hampton, Va., on Saturday night. L.W. Miller owns a seven-point lead over Andy Seuss after Seussâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; flag-to-flag victory at Caraway Speedway last Saturday night.
HOT PASS Ryan Blaney of High Point failed to get his third straight victory in the PASS South Series last Saturday night at South Boston Speedway. He still didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do too badly, coming away with a second-place finish and the lead in series standings. The PASS Tour visits North Wilkesboro Speedway on Saturday. The 200-lap event will mark the first long-distance race at the .625mile track since its close following its final Cup race in 1996. Races for Limited Late Model, Stadium stock and Allison Legacy cars are also scheduled. Bobby and Donnie Allison are to serve as grand marshals. Qualifying is to start at 11:30 a.m. Races begin at 2 p.m., with the PASS race scheduled last. gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3519
Wolfpackâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brien needs wins this year RALEIGH (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The first year had the typical bumps of a coaching transition. The second ended with a bowl loss that secured a losing season. The third was an injury-riddled mess. Coach Tom Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brien knows this season at N.C. State had better offer something more. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You have to win. That shows progress,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what we havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been able to do. ... Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to go on and have a winning season and go to a bowl game.â&#x20AC;? When Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brien arrived, it seemed the program that had offered plenty of bluster under Chuck Amato â&#x20AC;&#x201C; despite never finishing higher than fourth in the ACC â&#x20AC;&#x201C; was hiring the perfect substance-overstyle guy. Yet N.C. State has been mediocre, losing seven games in each of the past three seasons. N.C. State boasts a former all-ACC QB in Russell Wilson and has linebacker Nate Irving back after he missed all of last year
with injuries suffered in a car wreck. The offense has been good enough to win games, but the defense last year was a disaster. So far, the Wolfpackâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only real accomplishment under Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brien has been to win all three meetings with rival North Carolina and its coach, Butch Da-
vis, whose hiring about a month before Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brien in late 2006 generated a lot more buzz. Staying healthy would certainly help. Last year, 12 players went down to season-ending injuries. Wilson was first-team all-ACC as a freshman and threw 31 TD passes
last year to lead an offense that averaged 30 points per game. But Wilson missed spring drills while concentrating on baseball, allowing talented reserve Mike Glennon to get all the snaps. Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brien has said he expects Glennon to push to take Wilsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s starting job.

Bernanke: Shut down failing banks WASHINGTON (AP) — Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke told a panel investigating the financial crisis that regulators must be ready to shutter the largest institutions if they threaten to bring down the financial system. “If the crisis has a single lesson, it is that the toobig-to-fail problem must be solved,” Bernanke said Thursday while testifying before the Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission. Bernanke also said it was impossible for the Fed to rescue Lehman Brothers from bankruptcy in 2008 because the Wall Street firm lacked sufficient collateral to secure a loan. Lehman’s former chief executive told the panel a day earlier that the firm could have been saved, but regu-

AOL signs new pact with Google NEW YORK (AP) — Google Inc. will continue to provide the search results on AOL Inc.’s websites under a new, five-year deal the companies signed this week. The agreement largely reinforces an arrangement that has been in place since 2005. But the new contract, announced Thursday, also expands their cooperation onto AOL sites for cell phones and other gadgets. And it will put AOL video content on Google Inc.’s YouTube site for the first time.
Oil prices waiver on mixed news NEW YORK (AP) — Oil prices headed higher Thursday after an initial retreat as reports on jobs, manufacturing and home sales gave mixed signs about the economy. Benchmark oil for October delivery rose 30 cents to $74.21 a barrel in midday trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange. Prices dropped as low as $73.11 in early trading.
Productivity falls while costs increase WASHINGTON (AP) — American companies experienced the largest drop in workplace productivity this spring in nearly four years and a rise in labor costs, suggesting businesses may no longer be able to squeeze more work out leaner staffs. Productivity dropped at an annual rate of 1.8 percent in the April-toJune quarter, the Labor Department said Thursday.
DILBERT
lators refused to provide help. The Fed chief is presenting his analysis of the crisis and views on potential systemwide risks as the panel approaches the end of its yearlong investigation into the Wall Street meltdown. The financial overhaul law enacted this summer gives regulators the authority to shut down firms when their collapse poses a broader threat to the system. The process resembles the one used by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. to close failing banks. FDIC Chairman Sheila Bair told the panel “the stakes are high” for regulators to effectively exercise their new powers. If not, “we will have forfeited this historic chance
to put our financial system on a sounder and safer path in the future,” Bair said. Bernanke said that bailing out these institutions is not a healthy solution and great improvement will come from the new law. “Too-big-to-fail financial institutions were both a source ... of the crisis and among the primary impediments to policymakers’ efforts to contain it,” Bernanke said. “We should not imagine ... that it is possible to prevent all crises,” he said. “To achieve both sustained growth and stability, we need to provide a framework which promotes the appropriate mix of prudence, risk-taking and innovation in our financial system.”
Burger King agrees to buyout CHICAGO (AP) — Burger King Holdings Inc., the nation’s perennially No. 2 hamburger chain, said Thursday that it is selling itself to little-known private equity firm 3G Capital in a deal valued at $3.26 billion. Its shares soared to an 18month high. Thursday’s $24-per-share tender offer comes after a day of speculation about the deal that sent shares up more than 15 percent. The offer is a nearly 46 percent premium over the company’s stock price before rumors of a buyout began circulating. Under the terms of the deal with 3G, Burger King’s Chairman and CEO John Chidsey will become co-chairman of the board. 3G Managing Partner Alex Behring will be the other co-chairman. Burger King, with its 12,100 locations around the world, lags its far larger
competitor McDonald’s Corp., and has struggled to keep up with its rival during the economy’s rollercoaster of the past two years. Among the biggest problems: high unemployment among its most important, but notoriously fickle, group of customers: young men between 18 and 34. It’s more than the bad the economy that’s led to five consecutive quarters of declines in an important performance measure of sales at locations open at least a year. Burger King’s onceunique concept of flamebroiled burgers isn’t so rare any more, thanks to a boom in gourmet hamburgers from smaller competitors such as Five Guys, The Counter and In-N-Out Burger. And it’s hard for Burger King to make solid profits while competing with McDonald’s superlow prices.
Retailers enjoy gains in August NEW YORK (AP) — American shoppers, taking advantage of deep discounts and tax-free holidays, opened up their wallets a little more for back-to-school spending compared with last year, giving some retailers better-than expected gains for August. The results provided a sliver of hope for the recovery amid an unrelenting batch of bad news, from slumping home prices and high joblessnes, that have pointed
to a stalling economy and set up dire expectations for the back-to-school shopping season. Still, the retailers’ gains mask underlying weakness in consumer spending as they’re being compared with declines a year ago and worries still abound about the critical holiday season. Shoppers remain selective and are focusing on the necessities, a trend that is expected to continue through at least the holiday shopping season.

Reports send stocks higher NEW YORK (AP) — Stocks rose Thursday, extending their gains from the day before, after reports on housing, manufacturing and jobs all indicated that the economy continues to grow. The Dow Jones industrial average rose 50 points, having jumped 254 on Wednesday thanks to strong reports on manufacturing in the U.S. and China. Broader indexes also rose. Trading was somewhat muted ahead of the government’s closely watched monthly report on employment due out Friday. “We’re treading water,” said Dan Genter, CEO of RNC Genter Capital. Traders are waiting to see if Friday’s jobs data “provides more of a rescue or a shark attack.” The monthly report is likely to provide further evidence that the jobs market remains weak. Economists polled by Thomson Reuters predict the unemployment rate inched up to 9.6 percent last month from 9.5 percent in July as private employers hired just 41,000 workers last month. The Dow Jones industrial average rose 50.63, or 0.5 percent, to close at 10,320.10. Broader indexes also rose. The Standard & Poor’s 500 index rose 9.81, or 0.9 percent, to 1,090.10.

Positive reports lift stumbling economy WASHINGTON (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; A weak economy got a little lift Thursday with new data suggesting companies arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t pursuing mass layoffs and stores are a little busier. New applications for unemployment benefits declined for a second straight week after rising in the previous three. Retailers reported surprisingly strong sales in August. And more people signed contracts to buy homes. Economists were mildly encouraged by the news, which followed several
downbeat reports on housing and weaker economic growth last week. But few saw signs that the economy is gaining momentum. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s encouraging that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not seeing further deterioration as we have in recent months,â&#x20AC;? said Julia Coronado, U.S. economist at BNP Paribas. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not turning around and moving in the direction of stronger growth.â&#x20AC;? New claims for unemployment aid fell last week by 6,000 to a seasonally adjusted 472,000,
the Labor Department said Thursday. The fourweek average of claims, a less-volatile measure, fell by 2,500 to 485,500, its first decrease after four straight increases. Even with the declines, claims are still at much higher levels than they would be in a healthy economy. When economic output is growing rapidly and employers are hiring, claims generally drop below 400,000. It appears â&#x20AC;&#x153;that a wave of panicked layoffs has passed, as companies
have become a bit calmer in the face of the financial and economic disruptions of late spring and early summer,â&#x20AC;? Pierre Ellis, an economist at Decision Economics, wrote in a note to clients. In a separate report, the Labor Department said productivity fell in the spring by the largest amount in nearly four years while labor costs rose. That indicates companies may have reached the limits of their ability to squeeze more work out of their reduced work forces.
Dell concedes in 3Par bidding war SEATTLE (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Dell Inc. is walking away from a bidding contest with rival Hewlett-Packard Co. for data-storage maker 3Par Inc. Dell said Thursday it wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t match HPâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s offer to pay $33 per share for 3Par, or about $2.07 billion. Dellâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s decision came barely an hour after 3Par announced it had received Dellâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s revised offer of $32 per share and then the even stronger bid from HP. In a statement, 3Par said Dellâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s revised offer contained new terms that it found unacceptable, including a multiyear re-
seller agreement with Dell that would remain in effect even if 3Par were to be bought by another company. The board of 3Par deemed HPâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s offer superior. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 83 percent above Dellâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first offer and more than three times what 3Par stock was trading at then. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We took a measured approach throughout the process and have decided to end these discussions,â&#x20AC;? said Dave Johnson, Dellâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s senior vice president for corporate strategy. Shares of 3Par increased 74 cents, or 2.3 percent, to $32.82 in morning trading Thursday. Before Dell con-

ceded, 3Par shares were trading as high as $33.84 as investors expected Dell to match or beat HPâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s $33-pershare offer. Dell shares jumped 15 cents, or 1.3 percent, to $12.29, while shares of HP,
which is based in Palo Alto, Calif., increased 21 cents, or 0.5 percent, to $39.42. Dell, which is based in Round Rock, Texas, made the first offer for 3Par on Aug. 16, at $18 per share.

1 dead in plane crash near San Francisco Bay REDWOOD SHORES, Calif. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; A 40-year-old woman was found dead next to the wreckage of a small plane that crashed Thursday in a lagoon off San Francisco Bay, officials said. Divers were searching for two more people who may have been on board. Redwood City Fire Battalion Chief Dave Pucci says the twin-engine Beechcraft crashed at 11:53 a.m. Thursday in a lagoon in the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Redwood Shores neighbor-
hood, near the offices of Oracle Corp. The plane took off minutes earlier from San Carlos airport about a mile away. Pucci said divers who reached the wreckage found no one else in the plane and were searching the dark, murky waters for two other people who may have been on board. Federal Aviation Administration spokesman Lynn Lunsford said the agency was aware of the crash and sending investigators.
