MCLARTY MOVES HIGH POINT – An institution in downtown High Point has a new home, not much farther from its former location where McLarty Drug Co. did business for more than 50 years. McLarty recently relocated from its longtime Church Avenue location to the shopping center at Main Street and Sunset Drive near Montlieu Avenue. The family-owned, local pharmacy has served High Pointers since 1938, and had been on Church Avenue since 1956. McLarty moved to 819 N. Main St. in the Main Street Square Center to enlarge the space of the store, said co-proprietor Brad Beavers. “The move was meant to give us much-needed space to show our full line of products, as well as to provide easier access for our customers. The site is much more visible than our previous location, and we have received a lot of positive feedback,” Beavers said. The new location will feature the quaint touches of McLarty’s former home. The business relocated its original soda fountain from the old store, complete with marble counters and antique fixtures that are

The four finalists were drawn from that list and interviewed by the board. Davis said the heaviest concentration of candidates was from South Carolina, Georgia and other parts of the Southeast. The search has been national in scope and handled by the authority without the use of an outside firm to “save us some money,” Davis said. “We had some good candidates, had good responses,” Davis said. “We had responses from as far away as Los Angeles.” Kenner’s replacement will take over an agency with an $18.1 million

One of his successor’s first orders of business will be guiding the Clara Cox Homes redevelopment project to completion. Last month, the authority secured financing for the project. Work has started on the site, which is across from the authority’s offices on E. Russell Avenue. A groundbreaking ceremony is planned for later this month for the mixed-income community, which will be located on the site of a former housing project and is seen as a key in the planned revitalization of the area, which is near the Macedonia neighborhood. pkimbrough@hpe.com | 888-3531

Business as usual resumes along NC coast KILL DEVIL HILLS (AP) – In the annals of North Carolina hurricanes, Earl will be lucky to merit so much as a footnote. Hours after the storm made its way north, vacationers and residents along the North Carolina coast were preparing to celebrate the last long weekend of summer. Plywood sheets were taken down from homes, restaurants and shops throughout the Outer Banks, streets that were deserted 24 hours earlier were jammed with cars bearing out-of-state plates and officials breathed a sigh of relief at having missed the worst of the hurricane. “We dodged a bullet. Purely and simply, North Carolina dodged a bullet,” Gov. Beverly Perdue said Friday. For some residents in the Outer Banks, though, the storm kicked up enough water and sand to close off sections of Highway 12, the main artery through the area, effec-
tively stranding people until Saturday, when state road crews were expected to have the thoroughfare open. But for many, Earl was little more than a minor annoyance at the start of Labor Day weekend. “We evacuated, we came back, everything’s still here,” said Jeannie Sudimak of Youngstown, Ohio. “Perfect.” Sudimak and her husband, Rod, spent Thursday night in Rocky Mount, about 140 miles inland from Nags Head, but were ready for the beach by Friday afternoon. “I’m not going to do anything all weekend except lie in the sun,” Rod Sudimak said. Tens of thousands of residents and tourists were urged to leave the Outer Banks ahead of the storm, which hit North Carolina with sustained winds of up to 59 miles an hour, gusting in places up to 82 mph. Some minor damage and brief power outages were reported,

People return to the beach in Nags Head on Friday after Hurricane Earl dumped heavy rain and wind on North Carolina’s Outer Banks. ster spent days anxiously watching weather reports from their Linkwood, Md., home, wondering if it would scratch their plans of meeting friends in Nags Head for the holiday weekend. On Friday morning, with television footage still showing heavy winds and pelting rain, they decided to take a gamble. “We put the dog in the kennel, put the car on the road and said, ’Let’s just chance it, man,”’ Greg Webster said. “We got lucky.” By the time the Websters arrived on the Outer Banks, the rain had stopped and a line of blue sky was advancing from the west.
but there were no reports of injuries or deaths related to the storm. About 5,000 electric customers in Hyde County awakened without power, but most had been restored by the afternoon, said Kristie Aldridge, spokeswoman for North Carolina Electric Cooperatives. Service was also restored for Dare County customers who lost power during the storm.

Perdue seeks options for budget RALEIGH (AP) – Gov. Beverly Perdue said Friday she plans to develop a budget proposal for the next two years that doesn’t extend a temporary 1-cent sales tax increase approved a year ago to help close a deep fiscal hole. But her aim to let the extra penny expire could come at a steep price to state government programs and services. Her administration directed agencies this week to offer ways to cut spending by up to 15 percent in the fiscal year starting next July 1. With the sales tax and other temporary taxes about to end, the loss of federal stimulus funds and the continuing weak state economy, the Legislature might be forced to close a budget gap of at least $3.3 billion, according to the Office of State Management and Budget. “We know that we have a tremendous budget dilemma, and we’ve known that

for two years,” Perdue told reporters after a Hurricane Earl briefing. “Nobody likes to shed jobs, nobody likes to shed services, but in times of economic conflict you’ve got to do that and North Carolina will continue to do that until the economy fully recovers.” The 1-cent sales tax increase raised the base rate in all 100 counties on most nonfood purchases from 6.75 percent to 7.75 percent starting a year ago this week, and is expected to generate more than $1 billion alone this year. It was part of a tax package approved by Democrats in August 2009 to close what they calculated as a $4.6 billion gap between revenues and expenditures after tax collections fell nearly 11 percent – the worst decrease in at least 40 years. Federal funds and spending cuts helped eliminate the rest of the gap.

HIGH POINT – Police on Friday were investigating a minor traffic accident involving a child that occurred Thursday evening.

No charges had been filed as of Friday, but officers were still investigating the driver, as well as the child’s mother and her boyfriend for possible negligence issues because they allegedly were not in a crosswalk when they were going across N. Centennial Street, police said.

To the northwest in Pakistan’s restive tribal regions, two suspected U.S. missile strikes killed at least seven people in an area controlled by one of the main groups battling Americans in neighboring Afghanistan, Pakistani intelligence officials said. Two other militant bombings left at least two people dead and several wounded on a day convulsed by the violence that threatens the stability of Pakistan’s weak civilian government.

All those zeros give different economic perspective Almost every news story about our national economic woes is full of numbers. The problem is that as we get accustomed to numerical terms they lose their impact. Our deficit spending for July 2010 was reported in print at $165 billion. Actually, that figure was $165,040,000,000. Looks worse doesn’t it? Just the interest on our national debt for July (we do have to pay it) was $19,900,000,000. By 2015, the total national debt is projected to be $20,000,000,000,0000. Then the interest will be $800,000,000,000.00 per year. How do these numbers look to you? Don’t you think it’s time we started demanding that our representatives begin reducing these numbers rather than pushing us closer to the inevitable economic precipice? CHARLES E. BAKER Trinity

As a child I am sure, you knew this doctor as well. He rhymed to amuse, his name you can deduce, was the writer known as Dr. Seuss.

Terminate the deadly mistakes
School board chairman and members representing the greater High Point area: Chairman Alan W. Duncan, District 4, 3103 Saint Regis Road, Greensboro, NC 27408; 378-5315
The News & Observer of Raleigh, Aug. 26 Even a committed believer in capital punishment – when the punishment fits the crime, of course – must recoil at the notion of putting an innocent person to death. It turns out that the cases of three executed men are among those in which the State Bureau of Investigation failed to be fully forthcoming about blood evidence. So is it possible that someone was executed who was not a killer? That does not appear to be an issue. Still, most homicides don’t result in a death penalty. Any defendant is entitled to thorough, accurate reporting of the evidence, so that prosecutors, juries, even his own counsel can make well-informed decisions. Otherwise, the process is tainted – even when the defendant’s guilt is indisputable, as it was for Desmond Carter, Joseph T. Keel and John H. Rose. The SBI’s crime lab – where dereliction of duty among blood analysts seems to have been sickeningly common – often is called to assess evidence in murder cases. With the agency’s scientific credibility shaken to the core, it’s no wonder advocates for death row inmates are saying enough is enough. Because of other legal entanglements involving challenges to the use of lethal injection, as well as growing public doubts about an irrevocable punishment in a flawed justice system, North Carolina has not executed anyone for four years. A coalition of death penalty opponents now wants Gov. Beverly Perdue to commute the sentences of the 159 condemned inmates to life without parole. They also are mindful that 147 of those inmates recently filed for relief under the state’s Racial Justice Act, which entitles them to challenge their sentences on grounds of racial bias. Perdue obviously should order a thorough review of evidence-handling in all these cases. A blanket commutation would be a brave step indeed. But what’s certain is that the death penalty in North Carolina lies under an even darker cloud than ever. It would save the state’s court system a massive amount of time and effort, while eliminating the possibility of some hideous miscarriage of justice, to decide that life without parole would suffice as this state’s ultimate punishment.

America’s 9/11 extremists will be our face to the world
I
n case you missed some of the lowlights of the 20th century, one charismatic pastor from Florida is trying to bring them back. Yes, Pastor Terry Jones of Gainesville is planning a Quran burning for the ninth anniversary of 9/11. His church, the ironically named Dove World Outreach Center, plans to show their contempt for the Islamic holy book, a tome the pastor admits he’s never read, by using it as fuel for a bonfire. While the debate about books by those who read had been centered on the iPad versus the Kindle – Dove World’s debate is the Bible versus the kindling. Which makes bloodletting suddenly seem forward thinking. If you thought the Twilight series cornered the market when it came to a lack of literary subtlety – think again. Here we are in 2010 talking about burning books. So what if a small religious group is on a quest to quash copies of other religious books? Why is that such a big deal? This biblio-barbeque will be covered by the international press because it’s a train wreck of a bad idea; therefore, Pastor Jones will be our face to the world. Mine, yours – Americans in general. Yes, a preacher to a flock of nearly 50 will be the guy who Muslims, Christians, Jews, Buddhists, Hindus and Atheists from all over the world will identify with America. Everything about our country is about to be boiled down to a picture of a heap of Qurans smoldering. Shock and awww. It’ll be, “Americans burned the Quran.” And it’ll be true. Never mind that we have soldiers on the ground in two Muslim countries. Remember in 2005, the first scandal of Guantanamo Bay involved the alleged desecration of detainees’ Qurans by guards. That caused outrage across the globe. Way to support the troops, buddy. Other than a pointless, smoke-filled flip off to the second largest faith in the world, does the torching of media these days do what its purveyors want it to do? The Ancient Library of Alexandria was burned by Julius Caesar in 48 B.C.E. The loss of its contents arguably set back technology and culture for millennia. The conquistadors destroyed Mayan codices of their history and religion, obscuring the ancient Mayan culture indefinitely. The Mongol invaders massacred the Library of Baghdad, resulting in the death of a massive “house of wisdom.” These events forever altered history, mainly because they
took place before the printing press. After the printing press and the creation of multi-copied media, book burning become just a showy homage to the brutes of the past. Libricide is an act of overt hosOPINION tility. While Pastor Jones told the New York Times that he hopes Tina this event won’t lead to violence, Dupuy he’s planning a violent act. Author and professor Rebecca Knuth studied book burnings in Germany, Bosnia, Kuwait, China and Tibet. She concludes libricide often precedes genocide. Needless to say, this is not an act of “furthering the dialog.” You don’t exactly make the case for how your religion is the one of peace while you’re lighting things on fire. Maybe Dove World has tapped into the conventional wisdom that you can never go wrong blaming the media – a literal shooting of the messenger. A book is a symbol. So the tactic preferred by the Nazis and Conquistadors alike is still alive as a tone-deaf attempt at cultural criticism. John Lennon said his band was more popular than Jesus, so Beatles representations were treated like 17th century witches and burned at the stake. In the 1980s, metal albums were thought to bring 1980s teenagers to Satan so they also were torched. Harry Potter books have met a similar fate. Did this eradicate the subjects? No. Do public displays of pitchforks and torches make them any less popular? No. On the contrary, since the creation of copies and more recently the Internet, Dewey Decimal Demolitions and Album Atom Rearrangers seem to make the subject more popular and maligned the source of the spark. So as all Muslims are apparently judged by their extremists who on 9/11 crashed planes into buildings – all Americans will be judged by our extremists who on 9/11 burned Qurans into ashes. Muslim-Americans are in an awkward position. But most notably it means the Muslim world and Americans are about to have more in common than they thought.

Bible teachings not set by polls Scriptures more faithfully,” according to Patrick Condon of The Associated Press. In months SHARING and years to come, there THE SPIRIT will be more church splits, Bill the dividing of Ellis old mainline ■■■ churches, as church leaders substitute their opinions for the Word of God. The divisions always will come when “Thus saith my mind is substituted for thus saith the Lord God.” When it comes to such matters as abortion, gluttony, idolatry, drunkenness, foulmouthed revilers, robbers, greediness, sensualists and sexual immorality of all kinds, pagan thinking and ungodly actions will never settle the issues. God will have the ultimate and defining word on all these issues. These sins and utter disregard of God’s eternal Word led to the collapse and total destruction of the early and
powerful empires of Greece and Rome and all the other nations that have forgotten God. America is living on the deceptive edge of the decaying precipice of final judgment. We have become too much like other great civilizations just before their final collapse. Whatever judgment God sends upon this country will be deserved. Individuals and nations cannot mock God and go unpunished forever. Ancient Israel had disobeyed God and sinned grievously against Him, had been soused in idolatry and would not accept correction and so God through His prophet Amos, gave one last warning after He reminded the people of all the wake-up calls sent their way and finally declared, “Yet you have not returned to Me, Therefore thus will I do to you, O Israel; Because I will do this to you, Prepare to meet your God, O Israel” (Amos 4:11-12). Many believe God is giving us one more opportunity and our final week of choice with the coming November national election. Our elected officials and politicians cannot
solve our problems. They are responsible for many of them. In recent days and years, we have legislated and governed immorally. These are the people who like to say, “You cannot legislate morality, but they do a continuous business of legislating immorality.” It is time our nation woke up and turned to God. Read carefully: “Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God” (I Corinthians 6:9-10 NKJV). There is hope healing and forgiveness for those who “humble themselves … pray … seek … turn from wicked ways” for God says, “I will hear … forgive … and heal their land” (2 Chronicles 7:14). God has the final word on morality, not public opinion polls. Only a fool would believe otherwise. BILL ELLIS, P. O. Box 345, Scott Depot, WV 25560 | (304) 757-6089
US court: Security trumps facial hair rights CONCORD, N.H. (AP) – A federal judge has ruled that inmates have no First Amendment rights to grow a beard, rejecting the claim of an orthodox Jew who said a prison limit on facial hair violated his constitutional rights. U.S. District Court Chief Judge Steven McAuliffe ruled in the suit brought by Albert Kuperman that prison officials’ concerns about hygiene and security trump inmates’ free expression and religious rights. McAuliffe acknowledged that Kuperman’s religion “requires men to refrain from trimming their beards.” But, he ruled, prison officials have valid reasons for requiring that beards be kept to a maximum length of a quarter-inch. “That length allows correctional officers to identify inmates easily, prevents inmates from hiding contraband and weapons in beards and minimizes the risk that an escaped inmate could quickly change his appearance after an escape,” McAuliffe wrote in his ruling last Friday.

Jealousy The eighth of the works of the flesh mentioned by Paul in his epistle to the Galatians is jealousy, which is a translation of the Greek word "zelos." The word "zelos" can be translated as jealousy, envy, or zeal, and can have both a good and a bad sense. In a good sense, we can be zealous for God and all things holy, but in a bad sense, we can envy the success of others or be jealous about our loved ones spending time with others. In Exodus 20:4-5 we are told to avoid making graven images or bowing down to anything other than God "for I the Lord your God am a jealous God." As human beings, the only proper zeal we should have is for God and goodness. Jealousy and zeal which leads to bitterness and divisiveness is obviously the bad type of jealousy, or misplaced zeal. The original meaning of the word "zelos" was "to boil." Indeed, jealousy has a way of "making our blood boil," and making us "boil over." When this zeal is holy and properly directed that is a good thing; when it is focused on our own selfish needs and desires it is not. We should reflect on what we are zealous about and try to focus our zeal on God and God alone.
Hatred Stirs Up Dissension, but Love Covers All Wrongs. Proverbs 10:12

ogcatchers, clerks, delegates, representatives, senators, governors, would-be-presidents and presidents are inclined to live and die by polls. Every office seems to be run by opinions, not facts or truth. Elections are often decided, from the lowest to the highest office, by who can buy the most votes. Thursday, Aug. 26, 2010, The Charleston Gazette, (Charleston, WV), had a front-page story headlined “Church’s painful split.” Pictured was the Rev. Richard Mahan, the distinguished pastor of St. Timothy Lutheran Church in Charleston, who has spent 42 years of ministry in the Evangelical Lutheran Church of America. In Minneapolis, last summer, the denomination voted to allow non-celibate homosexuals and lesbians to serve as pastors. Pastor Mahan, a man I have appreciated and admired for many years, was among 18 former ELCA pastors who joined with 1,000 Lutherans last Friday to form the North American Lutheran Church.

Trinity: The idea was there, the word came later
D
ifferent Christian groups and denominations have many ideas and phrases which are common. For instance, the idea that Jesus was born of the Virgin Mary is a commonly accepted idea among Christians. The Trinity is another common idea among Christians. The Trinity is the idea that God is Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. I explain this to my classes in this way: I am one person, Mark Nickens, but I am a father, husband, and son. I have three different roles but I am the same person. But the idea of the Trinity is different than that of the Virgin Mary in that the story of the Virgin Mary is in the New Testament but the word “Trinity� is not. To be sure, the idea is there, probably stated most prominently by Jesus in Matthew 28: “Therefore go and make

disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.� (NIV) Yet the word “Trinity� itself is not in the
Bible. So from were did it come? Two sources, actually: Theophilus (lived in the 100s) headed toward the word, but it is in Tertullian’s (160225) writing that we see the word for the first time. They both wrote apologies, which is a term used in Christianity to describe a written defense of Christianity. Theophilus wrote an apology in three books (long letters) to his friend Autolycus. Theophilus states in
his second book, “When we had formerly some conversation, my very good friend Autolycus, and when you inquired who was my God, and for a little paid attention to my discourse, I made some explanations to you concerning my religion . . . As you then afterwards urged me to do, I am desirous [to write this book].� In this second book, in the fifteenth chapter, Theophilus explained how God created the world. Once he gets to the fourth day [when God created the sun, moon, and stars], Theophilus compares the first three days to God. He states: “In like manner also the three days which were before the luminaries (sun, moon, and stars in the fourth day), are types of the Trinity, of God, and His Word, and His Wisdom.� So, here we have the word Trinity used to describe God/
Son/Holy Spirit. But the word translated “Trinity� is from the Greek word “trias� which is the idea of a triad, of three parts. So, Theophilus did not come up with the word “Trinity,� but was headed in the right direction. Tertullian eventually coined the word. In his book “On Modesty� he mentions the word in chapter 21. Toward the end of that chapter he describes the church and then makes this statement: “For the very Church itself is, properly and principally, the Spirit Himself, in whom is the Trinity of the One Divinity-Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.� Tertullian wrote this book in Latin and the word he used is “Trinitas,� which is “Trinity� in English. So there you have it. The word “Trinity� is not in the Bible, but the idea is; the word came later as the
early Christians tried to explain the concept of 3 in 1. This notion of an idea coming before its unique phrasing occurs from time-to-time. For instance, the idea of the separation of church and state is one which most Americans would embrace (although different interpretations are possible). But did you know that the phrase “separation of church and state� is not in the United States Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, nor in any Amendment? It comes from a letter Thomas Jefferson wrote in 1801 in response to questions about the religious liberty. So, this is another example of the popular word (or phrase) coming after the idea was accepted. QUESTIONS/COMMENTS contact Mark Nickens at drnickens@triad.rr.com.
Farrakhan supports planned mosque near ground zero WASHINGTON (AP) – Nation of Islam Minister Louis Farrakhan said Thursday an Islamic community center and mosque planned near ground zero should be built because Muslims were among those of many faiths who died in the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. “Why then should a mosque, a cultural center, not be constructed a few blocks away?� Farrakhan asked at a news conference in Washington, where he was joined by a coalition of AfricanAmerican Muslims. Farrakhan and other Muslim leaders said the controversy over the
building points to a rise in racism toward minorities and an anti-Islamic atmosphere. The proposed $100 million project has been denounced by many critics as insensitive to the families of people killed at the World Trade Center. They say it is disrespectful to build an Islamic institution so close to the spot where nearly 2,800 people died at the hands of Muslim extremists. “When that building was destroyed, the whole world felt it,� Farrakhan said, adding that many Muslims had offered their condolences to the country in the wake of the attacks. He said the
area is also hallowed ground to blacks who are Muslims. “Muslims are here. We are not terrorists,� Farrakhan said. “We will not allow anyone on our watch to do some silly act to deprive an innocent human being of their life. And if we see it, we’ll stop it.� Early plans for the Islamic center in lower Manhattan call for a swimming pool, a Sept. 11 memorial open to the public and a prayer space. Farrakhan also com-
mented on the rumors that President Barack Obama is a Muslim. Obama is a Christian. “Respect his choice,� Farrakhan said. “He chose to be a Christian, but he has deep respect for Islam. Take him as he is.� Obama has said Muslims have the right to practice their religion and build the Islamic center in lower Manhattan. He later said he wasn’t commenting on the wisdom of building it there. In a poll released last month by the nonparti-
san Pew Research Center, 18 percent of people said they believe Obama is Muslim. That was up from 11 percent who said so in March 2009.
John Walker Lindh seeks ruling on prison prayer INDIANAPOLIS (AP) – American-born Taliban fighter John Walker Lindh and another Muslim inmate have asked a judge to order a federal prison to allow them and other Muslims in their highly restricted cell block to pray as a group, in accordance with their beliefs. The American Civil Liberties Union last week filed a motion in U.S. District Court in Indianapolis for summary judgment on behalf of Lindh, 29, and Enaam Arnaout, 47, who claim that the prison’s policy restricting group prayer in the Communications Management Unit violates their religious rights. The ACLU contends there are no disputes over the facts of the case and that the law is on the inmates’ side, and asks the judge to rule in their favor. Lindh, who is serving a 20-year sentence at the Terre Haute prison for aiding Afghanistan’s nowdefunct Taliban government, wrote in a legal declaration that his religion requires him to pray five times a day, preferably in a group. “This is one of the primary obligations of Islam,� he wrote.

HIGH POINT – New furniture orders in June rose 9 percent compared to the same time last year, according to the latest Furniture Insights monthly report. The increase, derived from a survey of residential furniture manufacturers and distributors, compares to a 16 percent decline in June 2009 when compared with June 2008. Year-todate, new orders remain
‘While we still have a ways to go to get back to 2008 numbers, at least the increases continue to come.’ Ken Smith CPA, Smith Leonard Accountants and Consultants 10 percent higher than the first half of 2009, when they were 20 percent below the first half of 2008. The report is created by Ken Smith, a certified public accountant at High Point-based Smith Leonard Accountants and Consultants. Smith has documented year-to-year increases for new furniture orders since November, when a long streak of declining orders came to an end. “The June results continued to show improvement compared to 2009 results,” Smith said in the report. “While we still have a ways to go to get back to 2008 numbers, at least the increases continue to come. Not to be negative, but we do need to remember 2008 results were also off for the most part in the double digit range, especially in the last half of the year.” Smith also said while the numbers still show improvement, talk of another bout of recession and high unemployment rates “continues to keep consumers from feeling good.” “We just need the economy to show some strength, but most seem to feel that it might be a while,” he said.

High Point considers incentives to attract new employers. 1A
BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
ARCHDALE – Archdale officials are hopeful the city’s largest privately-owned building will soon be put back to use. The Archdale City Council on Friday agreed to apply for a Building Reuse and Restoration Grant from the N.C. Rural Economic Development Center for Project Darr. If the city of Archdale is a recipient of the grant, an unnamed company would relocate to the former Rose Furniture distribution center at 3803 Comanche Road in Archdale. Rose Furniture closed the 285,000 square-foot facility, which employed about 65, in June 2007 before the company went bankrupt, said Bonnie Renfro, president of the Randolph County Economic Development Corp. Project Darr would create 25 new jobs and relocate 46 existing jobs to Archdale. “It brings new jobs,” Renfro
said of the project. “It brings some new tax base. It takes the largest, highest-profile building (in Archdale) and puts it back in use. It’s really a win-win.” Renfro said the company, which is in manufacturing and
‘It brings new jobs. It brings some new tax base. It takes the largest, highestprofile building (in Archdale) and puts it back in use. It’s really a win-win.’ Bonnie Renfro President, Randolph County EDC distribution, has asked to not be identified because its employees have not been told of the possible move. The company’s relocation to Archdale is contingent on the grant, according to Renfro. On behalf of Project Darr, the city of Archdale will request $195,722 in the grant application. Archdale and Randolph County
would contribute $10,000 each for a grant match. The city of Archdale will not know if Project Darr is a recipient of the grant until Nov. 4. According to Renfro, the jobs must be created within 18 months of the grant award and retained for six months. The company would invest between $700,000 and $800,000 in new equipment and $1.7 million in relocated equipment. The city of Archdale would receive $5,800 annually, and Randolph County $11,720 each year in property taxes from the company. J.L. Darr & Associates, an Archdale-based real estate development company, would lease the former Rose Furniture building to the company, Renfro said. “Darr is one of the largest taxpayers in the city,” Councilman Eddie Causey said. “The city would get this money back in less than two years and at least 25 jobs. With being able to add that many jobs in our community and getting that quick of a payback, I believe the finance committee saw no reason not to move this along as quickly as possible.” dignasiak@hpe.com | 888-3657
Guilford minority graduation rate improves ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT
GUILFORD COUNTY – While the graduation rate for black male students continues to improve in the county school district, a significant gap with white students still exists, according to a national study and state figures. At 48 percent, the county school district had one of the 10 best graduation rates for black males among large school districts in 2008, according to a Schott Foundation for Public Education report. The rate was above the national average
of 47 percent and the North Carolina average of 46 percent. The graduation rate for black males continued to improve in the district last school year, according to district officials. State data for 2007-08 shows that the district graduation rate was 65.6 percent for black males. In the 2009-10 school year, the graduation rate for black males increased to 68.9 percent. The graduation rate for all students in 2009-10 was 80.7 percent, creating a gap of 31 percent gap between black male and white male students. N.C. Department
of Public Instruction data shows a 19.1 percent gap in 2007-08 and a narrower 17.7 gap in 2009-10. The state graduation formula accounts for students who move in and out of the district during high school, but the foundation does not. The district Strategic Plan establishes the goal of an overall graduation rate of 90 percent by 2012. To boost graduation rates, district leaders have provided a variety of high school options to students, including the Twilight School, which provides classes on a non-traditional schedule
for students with circumstances that make regular school attendance difficult. Middle college programs are also available to students as alternatives to traditional high schools. Within traditional high schools, graduation coaches, social workers and counselors work with students individually to make sure they are on track to graduate. They monitor students’ progress and provide support for struggling students who may need to participate in additional tutoring or course recovery.

Peter Polk (second from left), the USS North Carolina’s secretary and assistant public relations officer during her commission in World War II, returned recently to Wilmington with his son, grandson and great-grandson from California to walk her decks and share old memories.
Man who served on USS North Carolina returns for tour WILMINGTON (AP) – Among the hundreds of people visiting the Battleship North Carolina recently were four men who traveled from California on a special mission: to tour a vessel that played a key role in their family’s history. Born in 1924, Peter Polk wasn’t much older than his great-grandson Mackenzie, 16, when he reported aboard the USS North Carolina (BB55) as an ensign in 1944. “The experience changed me from a boy to a man,” Peter Polk said as he toured the ship with Mackenzie, his son Chris and his grandson Adam. With the help of volunteer tour guides, as well as curator of collections Mary Ames Booker, Peter showed his relatives where he lived and served from Oct. 12, 1944, to February 1946. “It’s amazing. I can’t believe I’m standing where he was in World War II,” said Mackenzie, who lives in Los Angeles. Peter began planning the journey in May.
“This is a very nostalgic trip for me,” said Peter, who lives in Dana Point, Calif., and hasn’t seen the battleship since he and his wife, Carol, visited 12 years ago. “It’s a once-ina-lifetime opportunity.” In 1944, Peter was promoted from ensign to lieutenant junior grade and assigned to the 2nd division. He served many roles on the ship, including aiming the 5-inch guns on the ship’s port side. During World War II, the ship participated in every major naval offensive in the Pacific and earned 15 battle stars. “We spent most of our time fueling destroyers and protecting carriers,” Peter said. He was on board during several major operations, including the assault on Iwo Jima. One of his scariest experiences, he said, was when the ship faced Typhoon Cobra in December 1944, one of two Pacific Ocean typhoons the North Carolina survived during the war. Adm. William Halsey had sailed Task
Education board may require juniors to take ACT RALEIGH (AP) – North Carolina educators may be ready to make high school students take a college entrance exam to determine whether they’re ready for college work and how well schools are preparing them. The News & Observer of Raleigh reported Friday the State Board
of Education could vote next month on a plan requiring most 11th graders to take the ACT exam. Students also would take pretests in eighth and 10th grades. The state would pay registration fees. Board Chairman Bill Harrison said the panel chose the ACT because
NC attorney general’s office ends probe of alleged property scam RALEIGH (AP) – North Carolina Attorney General Roy Cooper’s office said Friday it was ending its civil investigation of a scam involving the sale of overpriced mountain lots to buyers who were told they could profit without investing their own money. One of the largest fraud cases in North Carolina’s history came to light in 2007 when Cooper shuttered the Village of Penland real estate project, citing fraudulent business practices. He acted after a BB&T Corp. investigator contacted the FBI. Florida developer Michael Yeomans agreed in state court to a series of conditions including that he can’t sell real estate that involves the seller making down payments or mortgage payments, Cooper’s office said. This development effectively ended the lawsuit brought by Cooper’s consumer protection division. Yeomans previously pleaded guilty
to a federal mortgage fraud charge. Yeomans agreed as part of a plea agreement to pay $400,000 in restitution to the court-appointed receiver in the case. Details of his sentencing on Wednesday were sealed by court order. Appraiser A. Greg Anderson’s license was suspended and he can never conduct appraisals on property where the seller is offering incentives of more than $100. Alleged mastermind Anthony Porter was sentenced in July to three years in prison for fraud, money laundering conspiracy and making a false statement on a tax return. Authorities said the bogus development began in 2002 when Porter recruited brothers who owned a Florida manufacturing business as partners for what was envisioned to be a sprawling complex with luxury homes, wide streets with shops and boutiques set in the Blue Ridge mountains.
it’s viewed as a good predictor of student success in college. Students who do poorly on the exam would be encouraged to get extra help during the summer before their senior year. It would cost $3 million annually for about 86,000 juniors to take the exam.

Another and better memory for Peter was how his wedding day came about, a story shared on the Battleship North Carolina’s website, www.battleshipnc.com. He met his wife, Carol, on a blind date while attending Stanford University. When Peter left Stanford to continue his studies in Colorado and then Columbia University, he and Carol kept in touch. After Peter returned to Stanford in 1943, he asked Carol to marry him. She agreed that whenever and wherever the North Carolina landed in the United States, she would meet him for their wedding day. The landing site turned out to be Boston, and on Oct. 20, 1945, Carol and Peter were married, with several of the ship’s other officers attending the event.

Time arrives for cool season gardens After the heat of the summer season, working outdoors at summerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s end and in cool fall weather is again a pleasure. Even ECOLOGY cleaning up the old garden beGwyn comes a welcome Riddick activity since it â&#x2013; â&#x2013; â&#x2013; means getting the new one started. Cool mornings and evenings are great for seed germination of these crops after a warm sunny day. The Home Garden Seed Association outlines three cool weather tasks to have a cool autumn veggie garden and a blooming colorful spring garden:
Collect, spread and incorporate soil amendments, especially compost and manure to enrich the soil. Sow seeds for vegetables including beets, bok choy, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, carrots, cauliflower, celery, chard, chervil, chives, collards, garlic, kale, kohlrabi, leeks, lettuce, green onions, short-day bulb onions (such as Grano, Granex, and Walla Walla), parsley (the flat-leaf type is more winter hardy than the curly one), peas, radishes, spinach, and turnips. Sow flower seeds for winter and spring blooms. Flower seeds to sow now for fall and winter bloom include alyssum, candytuft, calendula, lobelia, stock and sweet pea. Sow seeds of cool-season annuals such as
annual poppies, clarkia, calendula, larkspur, California poppies and nigella right now to sprout and grow the following spring for the earliest flowers. I love a fresh mixed lettuce salad with each meal. But I like to add mandarin orange slices, apple chunks and maybe even some dried fruit such as blueberries, cranberries and cherries. Lightly toasted pecans, walnuts or sunflower seeds are my favorite toppings to get healthy nut oils into my diet. Butterhead-type lettuce varieties withstand the cold weather better than other types of lettuce. Two good butterhead varieties to grow are North Pole and Arctic King. Some romaine lettuces can tolerate cold weather, too. Rouge dâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Hiver is a French heirloom

Dear Abby: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Traceyâ&#x20AC;? is beautiful, caring and fun to spend time with. I fell hard for her and knew I could love her forever. When she broke up with me to â&#x20AC;&#x153;be on her own,â&#x20AC;? I was very hurt. My best friend, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Henry,â&#x20AC;? says he started sleeping with Tracey right after our breakup. I was his best man when he married â&#x20AC;&#x153;Jill.â&#x20AC;? Now Henry has left Jill for Tracey, and I am left with a sick stomach. How do I heal my wounds while supporting Jill, which keeps them painfully open? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Heartsick in Ohio Dear Heartsick: One
way would be to remind yourself that as â&#x20AC;&#x153;caring and funâ&#x20AC;? as Tracey was to be with, she had no reluctance about dating a married man. Another would be to level with Jill, explain that spending time with her is a painful reminder of the way you were dumped, and take a break from it until you have healed. Dear Abby: I became fast friends with one of my husbandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s co-workers after meeting her at a happy hour. We had fun going out, usually to dance clubs. One night when my husband tagged along, I overheard her tell him, â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t married, I could be with you.â&#x20AC;? When I confronted her about it the next night, she apologized, saying she had been feeling no pain and canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t believe she said it. My husband chalks it up to her being stupid drunk, but I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t let it go. Now when I see her at work functions, I am cordial and she acts like nothing ever happened. We could have been great friends if she hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t said what she did, but each time I think I can bury the hatchet, I get angry and upset all over again. Should I just get over it? Or am I justified in feeling I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be friends with someone I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t trust? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Distrustful in Illinois

This designated driver needs a refresher course ear Abby: A few weeks ago, I met a group of friends at a local pub. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Charlieâ&#x20AC;? was the designated driver. As the evening progressed, I noticed Charlie was drinking beer. When I mentioned it, he said heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d had only three. Then he insisted he was fine and â&#x20AC;&#x153;it was only beer.â&#x20AC;? I tried to explain the danger of driving while â&#x20AC;&#x153;buzzedâ&#x20AC;? and told him Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d walk home. Charlie then became insulted that I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t trust him to know his limits. He said I should relax and quit being so uptight. A few days later, some of my friends told me I had caused â&#x20AC;&#x153;unnecessary dramaâ&#x20AC;? that night and that my standards for the designated driver were â&#x20AC;&#x153;unrealistic.â&#x20AC;? They also said that Charlie wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t drunk and was totally capable of driving. But the fact remains, our designated driver wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sober, and I wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t comfortable getting into a car with him. I voiced my opinion; now Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m being punished for it. Did I judge Charlie too harshly? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Values My Safety, Davis, Calif.

CROSSWORD
Saturday, Sept. 4, 2010 CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Beyonce Knowles, 29; Ione Skye, 40; Mike Piazza, 42; Dr. Drew Pinsky, 52 HAPPY BIRTHDAY: Don’t give in to emotional tactics that will set you back. A strong sense of responsibility will guide you in the right direction. Don’t let the uncertainties of people around you cloud your vision. You know what must be done and have an intuitive edge when it comes to money, work and making choices conducive to a better future. Your numbers are 3, 11, 16, 23, 26, 31, 40 ARIES (March 21-April 19): Don’t overreact to situations that can alter a relationship you value. A loving, affectionate response to anyone you love or whose friendship you respect will help to keep the peace and lead to a better understanding. ★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Don’t sit there complaining about being bored or unhappy. If you don’t like what is going on, take responsibility and drum up your own entertainment. You will learn a lot from people who know how to have fun. ★★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Take a break. The more relaxed you are, the better you will feel. Avoid letting someone or something at work play on your mind. Now is the time to enjoy more and do less. ★★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): You’ll be difficult to get along with if things don’t go your way. Take a back seat before you harm a relationship that means something to you. There is only room for generosity and kindness if you want to avoid trouble. ★★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Keep your thoughts to yourself and your plans a mystery. A surprise you have for someone special will turn out well. Don’t let an opportunity slip away because you don’t have the time, when all you have to do is reschedule your plans. ★★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You can offer suggestions and set up reforms that will help a group you want to join. Networking will lead to new connections. It’s the overall outlook and interaction you have with others that will make a difference. ★★★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Take a back seat for the moment and observe. It’s not your turn; if you try to take it now, you will be faced with questions you may not be able to answer. Too much too soon will lead to mishaps. ★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You can’t avoid what needs doing by hiding or not making a move. Face whatever comes your way and you will gain respect as well as confidence. A trip or move will lead to bigger and better things. ★★★★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Don’t overspend, overdo or overindulge. It is likely to cost you an important friendship as well as an opportunity to get your ideas heard. Make changes to your home that stabilize your position and bring you additional recognition. ★★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Take care of personal business. The more time spent looking after something that can alter your life in the future, the better you will feel. Don’t let an emotional encounter with someone lead to a change of plans. Complete what you set out to do. ★★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Forget about work and colleagues and concentrate on your personal efforts to make your life better. Love and romance are in the stars. An opportunity to join forces with someone you care about will reduce your overhead and personal debt. ★★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Your creative ideas can pan out nicely as long as you don’t overspend getting them off the ground. Talks will lead to options you haven’t considered in the past. Don’t let your emotions or feelings stand in the way of progress. ★★★★★

Against four hearts, West led the queen of clubs, and East took the ace and led the jack – his highest club as a suitpreference signal. West ruffed declarer’s king and obediently led a spade. South captured East’s queen and took the A-K of trumps. When West discarded, South tried to run the diamonds to pitch his two losing spades, but East ruffed the third diamond, leaving South with a spade loser. He went down one, and Grapefruit announced that South should sue his brain for non-support. What did South do wrong?
HOROSCOPE
DAILY QUESTION You hold: S Q H Q 9 8 D 3 2 C A J 10 9 7 4 3. Your partner opens 1NT, and the next player passes. What do you say? ANSWER: I wouldn’t quarrel with a bid of three clubs (if it’s forcing; some pairs would treat it as weak or invitational). But even when your hand is so distributional, the nine-trick notrump game is more likely to succeed than an 11-trick game. The major-suit queens may be useful at notrump. I’d raise to 3NT and wish partner well. West dealer N-S vulnerable
ONE STAR: It’s best to avoid conflicts; work behind the scenes or read a good book. Two stars: You can accomplish but don’t rely on others for help. Three stars: If you focus, you will reach your goals. Four stars: You can pretty much do as you please, a good time to start new projects. Five stars: Nothing can stop you now. Go for the gold.

Injury prevention might be as simple as a stretch
D
ear Dr. Donohue: I am 57 and play softball twice a week and racquetball two to three times a week. My job requires an extreme amount of physical exertion. I am able to do this in spite of my earlier years of partying with no regard for exercise. When I turned 50, I stopped all the negative activities and became health-conscious. When and how are the best ways of getting ready to play sports to avoid injuries? Will stretching and warming up do it? – R.Z.
BLONDIE
B.C.
Stretching increases flexibility. Flexible joints are able to move through a greater range of motion than stiff joints. A flexible ankle, for example, ought to be less likely to suffer a sprain. Sprains are torn joint ligaments. I have to admit, however, that proof that stretching and increased flexibility lessen injuries is not all that great. Some experts feel that stretching does nothing at all as far as injury prevention. Many sports, however, require great flexibility: gymnastics, diving, pitching, racquet sports and golf. In these sports, flexible joints improve a person’s performance. The best way to stretch is to move a joint as far as possible without pain and hold that position for 20 to 30 seconds. Relax and repeat the stretch five to 10 times. A shoulder stretch

is done with the arms held out to the sides at shoulder level and with palms HEALTH facing up. Bring the Dr. Paul arms backDonohue ward as if ■■■ you were trying to touch your hands. Hold that position. Repeat. For back and hamstring (the back of the thigh muscles) stretches, stand with feet shoulder width apart and head and arms dangling downward. Bend farther until you feel a stretch in the back and in the back of the thighs. Hold. Repeat. Calf stretches are easily done on a stair. Let your heels project off the back of the stair. Rise on your toes and then lower yourself until your heels are beneath stair level, and hold that position. Warm-ups do decrease the injury potential. A simple warm-up is jogging in place. It gets blood circulating to muscles, ligaments and joints, and limbers them. Dear Dr. Donohue: I am a female and a runner. I have been running since high school. I am now 32. I have developed a burning pain in the middle of my pelvis, and it has forced me to stop running. What do you think this is? – S.J.
It could be osteitis pubis. The pelvis is shaped like a bowl. In front, the two sides of the bowl form a seam. When a person runs, shifting weight from one leg to the other irritates that middle seam and inflames it – osteitis pubis. It has a poor blood supply, so healing takes a long time. In addition to rest, an anti-inflammatory drug like Aleve or Advil might help. You can stay in shape by swimming. I’d feel better about this if you’d have your doctor examine you to verify this presumed diagnosis. Other things cause similar pain. Dear Dr. Donohue: You answered a question by stating that heartbeat and pulse counting is an assurance of quality exercise. I have been using yoga, and I have become aware that complete stretching increases strength and balance along with teaching proper breathing. Please don’t overlook these aspects of body health. – J.M. You’re right. There are aspects of good health other than aerobic training. Yoga, tai chi and other exercise techniques don’t get the attention they merit. Balance training, one of the benefits of these exercises, is something we all need. Our sense of balance deteriorates with age.

Tar Heels take major hit BY BRIANA GORMAN ENTERPRISE DURHAM BUREAU
CHAPEL HILL – North Carolina’s most promising season in years took a major hit early Friday when the school announced that 15 players would not travel with the team to Atlanta for today’s season opener against No. 21 LSU in the Chick-fil-A Kickoff game. But Friday night, the school announced that linebackers Quan Sturdivant and Bruce Carter had been cleared by the NCAA to participate and will fly to Atlanta today. However, the NCAA requested more information regarding safety Deunta Williams, and he will not make the trip, according to UNC spokesperson Kevin Best.

State, TBA Nov. 27 at Duke, TBA There are 13 players who have been ruled out – six are ineligible and seven are being withheld while investigations into improper benefits and academic
misconduct continue. UNC initially did not identify Sturdivant, Carter and Williams, though they were not among the players who boarded four buses to leave campus Friday morning. Additionally, the Associated Press reported Friday that investigators from the office of N.C. Secretary of State Elaine Marshall have subpoenaed senior defensive tackle Marvin Austin. Marshall’s office launched an investigation focusing on sports agents and whether state laws were broken. The Tar Heels, ranked No. 18, will not have three offensive starters, including their top wide receiver and top two running backs, and likely will be without six defensive starters from a unit that ranked
sixth in the country in 2009. Cornerbacks Charles Brown and Kendric Burney, wide receiver Greg Little and defensive ends Michael McAdoo and Robert Quinn are ineligible for the game for violating school or NCAA rules, while Austin was suspended indefinitely Wednesday for violating team rules. Tailbacks Shaun Draughn and Ryan Houston, defensive end Linwan Euwell and safeties Brian Gupton, Da’Norris Searcy and Jonathan Smith also will not play vs. LSU. The NCAA began an investigation in mid-July focusing on players possibly having improper contact with agents or receiving extra benefits, which led to the revelation of possible academic misconduct a week ago.

Raiders make short work of Whirlies BY STEVE HANF ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER
HIGH POINT – The Red Raiders made short work of their seasonlong offensive struggles Friday night. T. Wingate Andrews scored three touchdowns on short fields and romped past Grimsley 37-3 for its first win of the year. A oncestagnant offense didn’t exactly explode against the Whirlies. Andrews’ first scoring “drives” only covered 31 and 24 yards. “That short field allowed us to score, and once the kids relaxed we got some confidence, started playing better,” coach Rodney McKoy said. “We’ve still got a young team and it shows sometimes. But it was good to get that taste in our mouths. We
just have to continue to relax.” Every phase of the Raiders’ attack seemed energized after two previous lackluster nights at Simeon Stadium. Key special teams plays led to 16 points. The defense forced Grimsley to go three-and-out six times while notching a safety and holding the Whirlies to minus-18 yards in the third quarter. And as the night wore on, the longer Grimsley’s defense played, the better the Raiders became on offense. It was 13-3 at the half before a burst of three touchdowns in eight minutes over the third and fourth quarters. “We had to establish our running game because that’s key to helping us play good defense,” said senior Xavier Quick, who finished with 86 yards on 17 carries
and was complemented late in the contest by Derrick Graham’s 12 rushes for 80 yards. “Me and Derrick Graham, we call each other the two-headed monster. You don’t know who to stop. I give it all to my offensive line and the coaches for good play-calling.” Quarterback Marquez Swinton’s two short scoring runs gave Andrews the halftime lead. In the third quarter, Kenova Childress pinned Grimsley at the 2-yard line when his punt was downed there by Jamarii Milliken. On the next play, Grimsley’s Tuquise Turner was stopped in the end zone by Antonio Jackson for a safety. Andrews (1-2) scored after the free kick when Swinton lofted a 15-yard pass to the end zone for Mark Johnson, who snagged the TD over a short defensive back.
Then came a Swinton-to-Roderick Campbell 10-yard connection over the middle for another score. Finally, Darrin Miller’s 43yard punt return set up Antonio Watts’ 2-yard plunge with 7:04 to go, with Chidress’ third PAT making it 37-3. “Our last two games we got off to a slow start,” Quick said. “Us coming out and hitting them hard, it set up our momentum.” shanf@hpe.com | 888-3526

fter a few days of preliminaries, the main event has arrived. It’s the first full Saturday of college football season. I’ll admit it. I’m psyched. In addition to the usual Top 25 contenders, the in-state schedule delivers plenty of knockout action. Close to home, we find Greensboro at Guilford for the 14th annual Gate City Soup Bowl. Kickoff at Guilford is set for 7 p.m. and folks are encouraged to bring canned food goods to the game to help area charities. It’s a great rivalry and a worthy cause. Staying in Greensboro, Winston-Salem State
visits N.C. A&T for a 6 p.m. start at Aggie Stadium. The Rams crushed Virginia Union 47-13 in their opener at Simeon Stadium. The Aggies figure to provide a much stiffer test. Heading east, UNC Pembroke plays host to Fayetteville State in the Two Rivers Classic. Kickoff is set for 6 p.m. In a matchup that stirs memories of great basketball, Georgetown invades Davidson for a 6 p.m. clash. It could make for some good football, too. Other openers of note include Appalachian State at Chattanooga at 3 p.m. (SportSouth); Western Carolina at N.C. State at 6; Campbell
at Virginia-Wise at 6; Elon at Duke at 7; St. Augustine’s at Catawba at 7; and LSU vs. UNC in Atlanta at 8 (ABC, WXLV, Ch. 45 locally). The Big South hopes to make some major noise when Coastal Carolina heads to West Virginia for a 3:30 p.m. battle. But the fun doesn’t stop today. Pirate Nation will be out in full force when East Carolina plays host to Tulane on Sunday at 2 p.m. ESPN2 provides the TV coverage. What a lineup!

Wolfpack eager to open against Western Carolina RALEIGH (AP)â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Tom Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brien figures the best way to keep his N.C. State players focused on their opener is to remind them that theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re playing â&#x20AC;&#x153;Carolina.â&#x20AC;? That itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Western Carolina â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and not higher-profile North, South or East â&#x20AC;&#x201C; doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t matter to the Wolfpack coach. â&#x20AC;&#x153;One thing about them, they have Carolina in their name,â&#x20AC;? Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brien said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s always a big game for anybody here at State. This (N.C. State) team, I think, has a little chip on their shoulder. They have a lot to prove.â&#x20AC;? So does Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brien, who begins his fourth season in Raleigh on Saturday night with a visit from the Catamounts of the Championship Subdivision. The accomplished former Boston College coach is still looking for his first winning season with N.C. State. Still, he hopes that a lineup that includes one of the Atlantic Coast Conferenceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top quarterbacks, a surprise starter at tailback and a finally healthy top linebacker will be enough to push the Wolfpack over the hump and propel them to success. At running back, former defensive
back Dean Haynes unexpectedly was anointed as the Packâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s starter ahead of freshman Mustafa Greene. The Wolfpack figure they know what theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re getting with Russell Wilson, one of the top dual-threat quarterbacks in the ACC whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s back after a summer playing baseball in the Colorado Rockiesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; organization, though Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brien said talented backup Mike Glennon also will play. N.C. State is eager to see if linebacker Nate Irving, who missed all of 2009 with injuries he suffered in a car accident, can rediscover the form that made him the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top tackler in â&#x20AC;&#x2122;08. If nothing else, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll at least have a chance to see how he stacks up in a game situation against a Western Carolina team that went 2-9 last season and finished last in the Southern Conference. The Catamounts, who have never beaten a team from the Bowl Subdivision, will be without two key players â&#x20AC;&#x201C; leading returning receiver Marquel Pittman and defensive end Trey Selby â&#x20AC;&#x201C; who were suspended for the opener for violating undisclosed team rules.
Renfreeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time is at hand for Duke DURHAM (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Sean Renfree has the strong arm and understanding of the offense that Duke coach David Cutcliffe wants to see from his quarterback. All he needs now is to calm the jitters before his first career start against Elon today at 6 p.m. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I get a little nervous at times thinking about it,â&#x20AC;? Renfree said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s exciting nervousness, like Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m ready to go and ready to start playing.â&#x20AC;? The sophomore spent most of last year on the sideline, both to watch
Thad Lewis â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a four-year starter who left as the schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all-time leading passer â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and to recover from a seasonending knee injury that came late in the season. But Lewis is gone and Renfree is the new passer for a coach who was Peyton Manningâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s offensive coordinator at Tennessee and Eli Manningâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s head coach at Mississippi. Elon has a proven passer in Scott Riddle, who is trying to become the first player in Southern Conference history to lead the league in passing yards for four straight years.
Johnson, Day share early lead at Deutsche THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NORTON, Mass. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Zach Johnson and Jason Day beat up on the course and beat the weather at the Deutsche Bank Championship. For Tiger Woods, it was the other way around. Johnson strengthened his Ryder Cup case Friday by rolling in putts from everywhere in easy scoring conditions ahead of Hurricane Earl, giving him an 8-under 63 and a share of the first-round lead with Day. Woods had two bogeys in four holes
when the first patch of rain arrived, and it didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get much better. He had two more bogeys and was in last place until he fought back for a 72, leaving him three shots below the projected cut. If he doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make the cut today, Woods will not advance to defend his title next week outside Chicago. Scoring was so ideal that Johnson and Day had a 63 and still only had a one-shot lead â&#x20AC;&#x201C; over eight players. That group included Ryder Cup hopeful Ryan Palmer, Rory McIlroy and Geoff Ogilvy, who had the best score of anyone in the afternoon.
Isner, Querrey reach third round of U.S. Open NEW YORK (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; â&#x20AC;&#x153;Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s go, Ryan!â&#x20AC;? Clapclap-clap-clap-clap. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s go, Ryan!â&#x20AC;? Clapclap-clap-clap-clap. On his way to victory at Louis Armstrong Stadium on Friday, the highest-seeded American man left in the U.S. Open, No. 18 John Isner, could hear the wild cheering and chanting
going on at the adjacent Grandstand in support of another American man, Ryan Harrison, a qualifier who was the lowest-ranked (220) and youngest (18) player still in the tournament. Isner, striving to be known for more than winning the longest tennis match in history, reached the third round
by beating Marco Chiudinelli of Switzerland 63, 3-6, 7-6 (7), 6-4. Harrison, striving to show he belongs at this level, came as close as possible to winning without doing so, wasting three match points in the fifth-set tiebreaker and losing 6-3, 5-7, 3-6, 6-3, 7-6 (6) to Sergiy Stakhovsky of Ukraine.

Carolina wide receiver Armanti Edwards (10) tries to break away from Steelersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; linebacker Stevenson Sylvester after making a catch in the second half of their preseason game in Pittsburgh. The Steelers won 19-3. Edwards expects to play a variety of offensive roles for the Panthers this season.
Panthers show diverse plans for rookie Edwards CHARLOTTE (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Carolina Panthers rookie Armanti Edwards looked completely out of place trying to returning kicks for much of the preseason. He appeared awkward and uncomfortable catching passes, too. Edwards behind center in the shotgun? Now thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something that comes natural, and perhaps could be the needed wrinkle to jump-start the Panthersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; punchless offense. Enter Carolinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s version of the wildcat: the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Mountaineer.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Brought back old times,â&#x20AC;? the former Appalachian State Mountaineers quarterback said after running six plays in the formation in Thursdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 19-3 loss to Pittsburgh in the preseason finale. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They put in a couple plays this week for me.â&#x20AC;? The formation, which Carolina first practiced on Monday, produced modest results. It couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t prevent the Panthers from becoming the first NFL team in at least 14 years to not score an offensive touchdown in the preseason, according to STATS LLC. But Thursdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s brief stint in the wildcat was a glimpse as to why the Panthers gave up so much to get the speedy and athletic Edwards, the only player in NCAA Division I history to throw for over 10,000 yards and rush for more than 4,000. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something we wanted to take a look at,â&#x20AC;? coach John Fox said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an area that heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s
done before in the past and we wanted to take a peek at a few plays we put in this past week.â&#x20AC;? Eyebrows were raised when the Panthers traded next yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s second-round pick to New England so they could take the slight, undersized Edwards with the Patriotsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; third-round pick. The criticism grew when Edwards, who had never returned kicks in his life, had trouble just catching the ball in practices and lost a fumble in the preseason opener. And he didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t win many people over with his uneven performance as a receiver, a position he hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t played since his junior year in high school. The Panthers have used a version of the wildcat in the past with running back DeAngelo Williams and receiver Steve Smith, but have not thrown a pass out of the formation in a regularseason game. According to STATS, the Panthers are the first NFL team not to score an offensive touchdown in the preseason since at least 1997, when its records begin. Only Tampa Bay failed to score a rushing TD this preseason, while every team other than Carolina had at least one passing TD. ... The Panthers must cut 22 players today to get to 53 for the regular season. ... Fox said G Duke Robinson (knee), LB Jordan Senn (ankle) and TE Jamie Petrowski (head) were injured against the Steelers.
NEW YORK â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Ben Roethlisberger is getting time off for good behavior. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be back on the field for the Pittsburgh Steelers two games earlier than expected after convincing NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell he is turning his life around. The star quarterback, accompanied by team president Art Rooney, met with Goodell early Friday and was told he could return on Oct. 17 against Cleveland after missing four games. He was suspended in April for six games for violating the leagueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s personal conduct policy, but Goodell said at the time he would review the playerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s behavior over the next few months. Goodell was satisfied that Roethlisberger has followed the leagueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s guidelines and stayed out of trouble.

Unbeaten Cowboys crush Panthers BY DANIEL KENNEDY SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE
WALLBURG – The opening minute of Friday night’s game against Southwest Guilford set a bad precedent for the Ledford Panthers. Braxton Daye foreshadowed the Panthers’ misfortune with a 50-yard return of the game’s initial kickoff to begin Southwest’s first drive deep in Ledford territory. A fumble by quarterback Airyn Willis inside the 5-yard line temporarily stalled the Cowboys’ promising drive, but on the following play, Panthers running back De Greene could not get out of the end zone and was tak-
en down for a safety. Raymond Bridges fielded the ensuing free kick and rushed 70 yards down the sideline and into the end zone to give Southwest an 8-0 lead with 11:32 remaining in the first. The disastrous first series for Ledford gave the Cowboys the only points they would need, as they rolled to a decisive 36-3 victory and advanced to a 3-0 start. “I’m proud of the effort tonight of our kids,” Cowboys coach Scott Schwarzer said. “Defensively, offensively, what we were able to put together out there, I’m tickled to death. We share the wealth in this offense. With six guys carrying the football tonight, that says a lot about our offense.” Daye resumed his scoring duties in
the second quarter when he took his second handoff of the game and motored 57 yards for a touchdown with 7:40 left until halftime. Aaron Fletcher’s 16-yard dash to pay dirt four minutes later gave Southwest a 22-3 edge at the break. “We’re a lot better football team than we showed tonight,” Ledford coach Chris Adams said. “We can come up with all the excuses in the world, but we’re not going to make them. I’ve got to do a better job as coach, we’ve got to do a better job as a staff and our kids are going to come out and work hard Tuesday of next week.” The size and speed of the Cowboys’ defense made life miserable for Led-
ford (1-2) as it tried to crawl back into the contest. Greene and the rest of the Panthers’ talented runners were kept at bay throughout. Daye and Willis tacked on a pair of short touchdown runs in the second half to widen the margin. The Cowboys shoot for a 4-0 start next week at home against Andrews.

HP CHRISTIAN 52, VILLAGE 0 HIGH POINT – Matt Haas rushed for 152 yards and two touchdowns on three carries, while Andrew Shoemaker and Rick Mack returned interceptions for touchdowns as High Point Christian Academy stormed to the first varsity football victory in school history. “The kids have been working hard and I think it was a great relief after the game,” coach Steve Lechner said after HPCA (1-2) rolled past Village Christian for a 52-0 win at the High Point Athletic Complex. “I know we have a lot of work to do going forward, but getting the first one as a varsity program is big for us.” Shawn Millsap completed 5 of 10 passes for 103 yards and two touchdowns for the Cougars.

Jobless rate rises despite more hirings WASHINGTON (AP) – Private employers hired more workers over the past three months than first thought, a glimmer of hope for the weak economy ahead of the Labor Day weekend. But the unemployment rate rose because not enough jobs were created to absorb the growing number of people looking for work. Companies added a net total of 67,000 new jobs last month and both July and June’s private-sector job figures were upwardly revised, the Labor Department said Friday. Stocks surged after the

Campbell reports profit increase HADDONFIELD, N.J. – Summer is rarely a hot sales season for Campbell Soup Co., and this year’s sweltering June and July made that even more true, but the company said Friday that cost-cutting and strong drink sales helped its net income climb. Campbell’s outlook spooked many investors, and its shares slid more than 3 percent Friday. The Camden company reported that its fourthquarter net income rose 63 percent from the same period last year to $113 million, or 33 cents per share.

report’s release. The Dow Jones industrial average rose more than 100 points in afternoon trading and broader indexes were all up. While the report hardly suggests the economy is out of danger, it’s a reassuring sign after weeks of troubling data and comes after some encouraging economic figures in the past week. Scott Brown, an economist at Raymond James, said he sees no sign of the country slipping back into recession. “You’re still seeing broad-based job gains. It’s not strong, but it’s positive,” Brown said.
Overall, the economy lost 54,000 jobs as 114,000 temporary census positions came to an end. For the first time this year, the manufacturing sector lost jobs – down a net total of 27,000 for the month. The auto industry accounted for 22,000 of those lost jobs, the department said. But those losses were largely due to a shift in the timing of the industry’s summer shutdowns. State and local governments shed 10,000 positions and have had net jobs losses in every month but one this year.
Obama: New economic package in the works WASHINGTON (AP) – Eager to jumpstart the economy ahead of crucial midterm elections, President Barack Obama said Friday he intends to unveil a new package of proposals, likely including tax cuts and targeted spending, to spark job growth. Obama spoke in the Rose Garden after the August jobs report came out better than expected, showing the private sector adding 67,000 new jobs last month and revising upward the numbers from June and July. But unemployment ticked upward to 9.6 percent as more people entered the job market, and the president said it wasn’t good enough. “That’s why we need to take further steps to create jobs and keep the economy growing,
including extending tax cuts for the middle class and investing in the areas of our economy where the potential for job growth is greatest,” Obama said. “We are confident that we are moving in the right direction, but we want to keep this recovery moving stronger and accelerate the job growth that’s needed so desperately.” Administration officials say a big new stimulus bill like last year’s $814 billion measure is not in the offing. Nervous lawmakers looking to November’s balloting would not be expected to approve an expensive new measure. But Obama said he’d be proposing a new set of ideas next week. He’s likely to detail them during a speech on the economy Wednesday in Cleveland.
Expect lower gas prices at next fill-up DENVER (AP) – Gasoline prices have been falling for weeks, and they could go even lower as autumn’s leaves begin to drop. The national average for a gallon of unleaded regular was $2.681 on Friday, according to AAA, Wright Express and Oil Price Information Service. That’s 6.6 cents lower than a month ago and 8.5 cents higher than a year ago. The national average has stayed below $3 a gallon for nearly two years, and most analysts think it won’t return to that level anytime soon. “We’ve got gasoline
supplies moving higher rather than lower so until we get unemployment down, you’re just not going to see much of an increase in gasoline demand,” said Jim Ritterbusch, president of energy consultancy Ritterbusch and Associates. The last time the retail gas price was at or above $3 a gallon for most U.S. drivers was in October 2008 after a busy summer season when prices topped $4 a gallon. Experts predicted pump prices would top $3 by Memorial Day. But the price peaked at $2.92 a gallon in early May as fears about the pace of the economic recovery intensified.

NEW YORK (AP) – The stock market had its first winning week in a month thanks to better news on the economy. The Dow Jones industrial average jumped 128 points Friday, its fourth straight day of gains. The strong start to September marked a turnaround from a dismal performance in August. A better-than-expected report on employment Friday was the latest piece of improving news on the economy. Stocks also gained earlier this week following signs that manufacturing was gaining in the U.S. and China. Even after its fourday run, which added 438 points to the Dow, the index is still 6.8 percent below the 2010 high it reached on April 26. Stocks had eased slightly after a report showed that the services sector didn’t grow as fast as hoped in August. The Labor Department said private employers added 67,000 jobs in August, more than analysts polled by Thomson Reuters had forecast. But that’s still a far cry from what economists say is a healthy level for the economy. “We need to get that number over 100,000 to feel comfortably that we won’t slip back into recession,” said Bill Hampel, chief economist for the Credit Union National Association.

Woman in acid attack recounts agonizing pain
EARL DOWNGRADED
AP
Cars are seen on a flooded street in Atlantic City, N.J., as Hurricane Earl moves up the East Coast, Friday.
Hurricane takes aim at New England ATHAM, Mass. (AP) – A weakening but still dangerous Hurricane Earl steamed toward the gray-shingled cottages and fishing villages of Cape Cod on Friday, disrupting people’s vacations on the unofficial final weekend of the short New England summer. Packing winds of just 80 mph, the storm swirled up the Eastern Seaboard after sideswiping North Carolina’s Outer Banks, where it caused flooding but no injuries and little damage. For the most part, it was expected to swing wide of New York City and Long Island, and much of the rest of the mid-Atlantic region, but pass close by Cape Cod, Nantucket Island and Mar-
tha’s Vineyard late Friday night, bringing rain and high winds. Vacationers pulled their boats from the water and canceled Labor Day weekend reservations on Nantucket, the well-to-do resort island and old-time whaling port expected to get the worst of the storm. Shopkeepers boarded up their windows. Swimmers in New England were warned to stay out of the water – or off the beach altogether – because of the danger of getting swept away by high waves. Airlines canceled dozens of flights into New England, and Amtrak suspended train service between New York and Boston. As of Friday afternoon, no large-
scale evacuations were ordered for the Cape Cod area, where fishermen and other hardy year-round residents have been dealing with gusty nor’easters for generations. “We kind of roll with the punches out here. It’s not a huge deal for us,” said Scott Thomas, president of the Nantucket Chamber of Commerce. Nantucket Police Chief William Pittman warned island residents against complacency, saying Earl was still a dangerous storm with severe winds. By midday Friday, Earl had dropped to a Category 1 storm – down from a fearsome Category 4 with 145 mph winds a day earlier.
Storm still causing havoc for holiday travelers NEWARK, N.J. (AP) – Hurricane Earl played havoc with travelers’ Labor Day weekend plans even as it weakened Friday on its path up the East Coast toward New England. Train service was suspended in the Northeast, flights were delayed or canceled up and down the Eastern seaboard and coastal roads
Clinton: Time is now for Mideast peace WASHINGTON (AP) – Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton sought to inject urgency into IsraeliPalestinian peace talks Friday, warning the negotiations may be “the last chance for a very long time” to reach an agreement. In an unusual joint interview with Israeli and Palestinian television broadcasters a day after she presided over the launch of the first direct talks in two years, Clinton said the rise of Iranianbacked extremist ideology in the Middle East is a major reason why time is short. Iran’s suspected nuclear ambitions have surfaced as a new motivating factor for a Mideast resolution. There have been growing Israeli warnings that the nation might take military steps to blunt Iran’s nuclear program, and even some of Israel’s Arab neighbors have shown concerns. The administration believes that a successful Mideast peace deal would limit Iran’s ability to use Mideast tensions to justify its behavior.
washed out. Even Interstate 95, the most heavily traveled highway in the East and a gateway to the beaches of Cape Cod and Maine, was expected to flood in Rhode Island. Amtrak suspended service between New York and Boston until this morning after a tree fell across electrical lines in New London,
Conn., at about 12:30 p.m. The rail carrier already had planned to stop service by 4:30 p.m. due to the storm. Continental Airlines had canceled about 60 flights by Friday afternoon, and some regional carriers had done the same, though other major carriers reported few or no cancellations.
PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) – Bethany Storro had just bought a pair of sunglasses and was celebrating a new job when a woman walked up to her with a cup and said: “Hey pretty girl, do you want to drink this?” The woman then splashed acid in the cup on Storro, who stumbled in pain and fell to the ground screaming. She felt agonizing pain as the skin on her face bubbled and sizzled and portions of her blouse disintegrated. “It was the most painful thing ever,” Storro, 28, said Thursday. “My heart stopped. It ripped through my clothing the instant it touched my shirt; I could feel it burning through my second layer of skin.” Police are seeking a black woman with a ponytail in the Monday attack as Storro, with her head wrapped in white bandages, told a news conference how only days before, she had been celebrating a new job and a recent move to Vancouver, Wash., from Idaho. But she insisted that she would not let the attack in Vancouver wreck her life, and laughingly marveled how her eyesight was spared just minutes after she bought those sunglasses. Doctors

Bethany Storro was attacked Monday night by a woman who threw acid in her face. at Legacy Emanuel Hospital in Portland performed surgery on Storro’s face Wednesday night, removing dead skin from the areas that were most deeply injured. Her mother said Storro was getting something out of her car before heading into a Starbucks when the woman approached her with the cup. Storro said the woman was wearing a green top and khaki pants. “I have never, ever seen this girl in my entire life,” Storro said. “When I first saw her, she had this weirdness about her – like jealousy, rage.”
Man wins big at casino before fatal robbery SANTA ANA, Calif. (AP) – Police are searching for two robbers who ran over and killed a man after he won several thousand dollars at a Southern California casino. Police say the 55-yearold victim and a female friend were followed from the Hawaiian Gardens Casino by two men whose car cut them off Friday in Santa Ana.
Santa Ana police Cpl. Anthony Bertagna says one assailant chased the fleeing victim and fought with him over a cashfilled envelope. He says the suspect ran back to his car after knocking down the victim, who was run over by the fleeing vehicle. A knife and dozens of $20 bills were scattered near the body.
Poll: New Yorkers conflicted about mosque
FILE | AP
Pedestrians walk past the 19th century building on Park Place in Manhattan where Muslims plan to build a mosque and cultural center in New York.
NEW YORK (AP) – A new poll finds New Yorkers are conflicted about the construction of a mosque near the World Trade Center site, with half of respondents opposed to the project and a majority saying people have the right to build an Islamic center near ground zero. The New York Times survey released Friday found 50 percent of respondents opposed to the project, 35 percent in favor and 15 percent undecided. In a separate question, 62 percent said people
have the right to build an Islamic center and mosque near ground zero, while 28 percent said they don’t. The project is planned for a site two blocks from ground zero. Opponents have said it is too close to the place where Islamic extremists killed more than 2,700 people in 2001, but supporters say it is a matter of religious freedom and argue the center could bridge interfaith understanding. Muslims have been worshipping at the building since last year.
Ground beef outbreak puts focus on meat oversight ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) – The first known U.S. outbreak linked to a rare strain of E. coli in ground beef is prompting a fresh look at tougher regulations to protect the nation’s meat supply. Three people in Maine and New York became ill this summer after eating ground beef traced back to a Cargill plant in Wyalusing, Pa. Cargill Meat Solutions, a subsidiary of Minneapolis-based Cargill Inc., recalled about 8,500 pounds of ground beef today, and
regulators warned consumers to throw out frozen meat purchased at BJ’s Wholesale Clubs in eight eastern states. The ground beef had a use-by-or-freeze-by date of July 1. Dr. Elisabeth Hagen, who was appointed undersecretary of food safety at the U.S. Department of Agriculture nine days before the recall, has signaled interest in expanding federal oversight of meat beyond the most prevalent strain of E. coli. “In order to best prevent illnesses and
deaths from dangerous E. coli in beef, our policies need to evolve to address a broader range of these pathogens,” Hagen said in a statement. The New York Times first reported the USDA interest in federal oversight of other strains of E. coli following the Cargill recall. The federal government currently requires meat plants to test for the most virulent strain of E. coli, O157:H7, which causes an estimated 70,000 illnesses a year.

Plane hits Oregon home; pilot, homeowner survive PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; A small plane stalled and nose-dived into the roof of a house south of Portland on Friday, but the 70-year-old pilot and the homeowner survived.

Got pool? Some choose to remove it rather than fix it BY CAROLE FELDMAN ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER
M
ike Eckman’s backyard swimming pool was “a good friend” for years, but with his children now grown it was hardly being used. And it needed costly repairs. So he and his family decided to have it removed, instead. “The pool served its life,” said Eckman, of Bridgewater, N.J. He hired All Pool Demolition in Midland Park, N.J., to do the job. Owner John Panariello says people often cite the same reasons as Eckman in choosing to get rid of pools. “They have to fix them and they’re very expensive,” he said. Having a backyard pool is one of those luxuries a lot of people dream of. But a growing business exists in removing them. Besides the cost of repairs and maintenance, people sometimes remove a pool out of concern that it might be a turnoff to homebuyers. Some parents with young children worry about safety. Other homeowners want to reclaim their backyards. All told, there are about 5 million in-ground residential pools in the United States, according to Kirstin Pires, spokeswoman for the Association of Pool and Spa Professionals. As the housing market has declined, so has the installation of new residential pools, by 58 percent last year and nearly 12 percent in 2008, Pires said. There are no such statistics on pool removal, she said, but anecdotally “it’s pretty unusual.” Nevertheless, Panariello has found
demand increasing for his pool removal services. He estimates that his company has removed between 900 and 1,100 pools since the 1980s. The process takes about three working days over a three-week period. Permits have to be obtained, utilities disconnected and water pumped out. The liner must be removed and the deck broken down. “There’s nothing left except for the concrete and maybe a big hole,” Panariello said. The concrete is broken up and either carted away or buried, depending on local laws and regulations. Most of the other materials are recycled, he said. After an inspection, the hole is backfilled with clean dirt and the area is graded. Two weeks later, the company covers the area with top soil and seeds it. Pool removal costs $5,000 to $8,000, Panariello said. That sum can be recouped within one to three years, he said, if you consider the cost of maintaining a pool. Barbara Rowan of Emerson, N.J., paid All Pool Demolition about $8,000 to remove her pool last year. She said a broken pipe had caused erosion damage, leading to structural concerns. It would have cost about $30,000 to rebuild the pool, she said. Instead, she had it filled in, and put in a new patio and hot tub. Rowan and her husband hope to retire in a couple of years. “A pool isn’t always a selling feature in our area,” she said, even though it was important in their decision to buy the house in the first place. “It was an expensive toy,” she said. “We do miss it.” The impact of pools on real estate

No more dog in the water. values depends on where you live. “There are some areas where you pretty much have to have a pool if you want to sell your house,” Pires said. “In other places, it’s not seen as an advantage.” Home buyers have fairly firm ideas about whether they want a home with a pool, said Ann Pettijohn, vice president of the National Association of Realtors for the region that includes California and Hawaii. Often, the type of pool can matter too. “In Southern California, you can’t just have a square pool,” she said. Buyers want a waterfall, a spa, “all the good things.” In New England, where the outdoor swimming season is much shorter,
“you want to put a pool in for your enjoyment, not investment potential,” said Ron Phipps of Phipps Realty in Warwick, R.I. He recalled one case in which it became clear that an in-ground pool was restricting the number of potential buyers. “Some people don’t want the maintenance of a swimming pool. Other people are not swimmers. They’d rather have lawn grass or something else.” He said some with young children shy away, but “in the advent of invisible fencing and pool alarms, that’s still relevant but it’s not a big problem.” The owners in the case he cited decided to remove the pool to sell the house.
