BY PAUL B. JOHNSON ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

LEXINGTON – No felon has been elected a sheriff in North Carolina in the modern era, and a group of law enforcement officials are campaigning this fall to make sure it never will happen. Sheriffs from across Grice the Piedmont gathered at the Davidson County Governmental Center Tuesday to proclaim their support for a state constitutional amendment referendum issue that would prohibit a felon from serving as a sheriff. Voters will decide the issue in the Nov. 2 general election. “History will be made Nov. 2 when the voters approve this. The bottom line is if you’re a felon, you shouldn’t be a sher-

Several sheriffs from the Piedmont attend press conference backing the no felon for sheriff constitutional amendment referendum issue.

REFERENDUM VOTE

–

Voters will decide on a state constitutional amendment referendum issue in the Nov. 2 general election that would prohibit felons from being elected or serving as a county sheriff in North Carolina. The issue must be put before the voters because the office of sheriff was established through the North Carolina Constitution and requires an amendment to change the requirements for service.

COURTESY WXII

State Sen. Stan Bingham, R-Davidson, (left) accepts resolution of appreciation for sponsoring the no felon as sheriff legislation from Rockingham Sheriff Sam Page (right) and Davidson County Sheriff David Grice.

If approved by the voters, the referendum issue would change Article VII, Section 2, of the state Constitution. The amendment would add language stating that anyone convicted of a felony would be ineligible to serve as sheriff whether or not his or her citizenship rights were restored.

GUILFORD COUNTY – School district officials decided Tuesday to take a few more weeks to decide whether to build a new autism facility on the shared property of Falkener Elementary and Hairston Middle schools in Greensboro. The Board of Education also will have to decide how to handle a projected $1.4 million construction shortfall. By consensus, the board

decided to table Chairman Alan Duncan’s motion to accept the site and to reconfigure project budgets to build the school. The board voted last December to cut the number of autism wings that would be built onto schools from the three approved by voters in the 2008 bond referendum to two. The school board decided to continue with plans to build one $14 million wing at Ragsdale High School and to consider other locations for the second wing. The suggested site off

Board delays decision on autism facility BY DAVID NIVENS ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

THAT’S A WRAP: Pre-Market comes to an end. 1B

Franklin Boulevard in Greensboro was selected over sites considered at Dudley High School and the McIver special education school in Greensboro, which serves 130 students. “There are a lot of opportunities for a safe and secure area at the chosen site,” said Andy LaRowe, the school district’s interim chief of operations. The two wings could serve up to 204 students. The programs serve children who have communication, cognitive and behavioral needs requiring costly supplies and equipment.

The district serves approximately 97 percent of students with disabilities, including 95 percent of students with autism, in traditional schools. Board members briefly debated whether the inflation margins included in the project costs would cover the potential shortfall of $1.4 million. “Moving money makes me nervous,” said board member Garth Hebert of High Point. “I have visions that we may not fund all the bond projects.”

Effort to curb hunger earns volunteer honors BY PAT KIMBROUGH ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – Gerald Payne’s humanitarian efforts have won him legions of admirers in High Point and his fair share of awards. Tonight, he’ll receive another accolade. Payne will be honored with a hunger-fighter award for his volunteer efforts raising money for the CROP Hunger Walk from Church World Service, the national sponsor of the walk. Payne has raised more than $30,000 for the walk over the past 15 years. “Gerald does not ask you to sponsor him; he tells you,” joked Steve Key, director of Open Door Ministries, which receives a portion of the money Payne raises and provides meals with it. “Typically, if we have somebody who raises $50 or $100, we think we’re doing pretty good. But he’ll raise about

Award was given to Payne by Open Door Ministries. $2,000 by himself each year. He’s just an inspiration to all of the people who do this.” Payne can’t read, write or drive a car, and his disabilities have left him without the use of his left arm and limited use of his left leg. Despite this, he spends weeks every year hitting the pavement seeking donations for the walk from anywhere and everywhere. “He has networks on top of networks of people who

know him and are familiar with the causes he works for and are regular givers,” said Doug Clark, a former Enterprise associate editor and longtime friend of Payne’s. “He also will just get on the bus and ask riders to give or go to the library and ask people or visit shops up and down Main Street.” Payne, 54, credits fellow members of First Presbyterian Church with turning him on to the Crop Walk. He said he sees the need for hungerrelief in the community all the time, especially through his volunteer efforts at Open Door Ministries’ shelter. “I just thought I would help out the best I could,” Payne said. “Some people give me $20. Some give me $50.” His efforts extend to the actual day of the walk itself, which this year will offer 1.5and 3-mile walks Oct. 10 at High Point University. “I try to walk all the way,” he said.

Gerald Payne holds award from the Rotary Club. The walk is aimed at mitigating hunger locally and globally, with a portion of the money raised going to Church World Service, which works with partners to eradicate hunger and poverty and to promote peace and justice around the world. Payne’s community service has brought him awards from the likes of Rotary International

and Open Door Ministries. “He’s got a real warm, outgoing personality, and he understands really well where all the money goes after it’s raised,” Clark said. “For all the tough times he’s had, I’ve never heard him speak ill about anybody or get mad at anybody.”

Quit Smart classes resume in October

FUGITIVE WATCH

----

ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

Medley GUILFORD COUNTY – The free Quit Smart smoking cessation series resumes in October in both Greensboro and High Point. The series consists of one 90-minute class per week for four weeks at County Public Health Department offices. The classes are open to any Guilford County adult resident. Class size is limited to 12 participants. “Tobacco use is the No. 1 preventable cause of death in our state and in our nation,” said Health Director Merle Green. “It creates health risks for smokers as well as those around them.” There is no known safe level of exposure to secondhand smoke. For women, smoking creates some unique health risks. For example, women over age 35 who smoke and use birth control pills have a higher risk of heart attack, stroke, and blood clots of the legs. Smoking is a risk factor for having a low birth-weight baby and low birth-weight babies are more likely to die or to have learning and physical problems. In High Point, the evening series will be Oct. 627 each Wednesday. The sessions will begin at 5:30 p.m. The daytime series will run each Wednesday Oct. 6-27 and begin at noon. Both series will be held at the 501 E. Green Drive location. In Greensboro, the evening series will be held on Wednesdays Oct. 27- Nov. 17, at 6 p.m. The daytime series runs Oct. 19-Nov. 9, each Tuesday. The sessions will begin at noon. Both series will be held at the 1100 E. Wendover Ave. offices. The Office of Minority Health and Health Disparities, North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services is supporting the series. Quit Smart utilizes techniques that have proven to be more effective than other stop-smoking programs.

‘White space’ issues In this 2008 photo, Wilmington Mayor Bill Saffo (left) and Kevin Martin, then chairman of the Federal Communications Commission, flip a symbolic switch during a news event heralding the switch from analog to digital television signals in Wilmington. Wilmington was the nation’s test market for the transition to digital. Nearly two years ago, the FCC voted to open up unused portions of television airwaves called “white spaces” to deliver wireless broadband connections that function like WiFi networks on steroids. Now the FCC is set to resolve those issues with a vote scheduled for Sept. 23 that will set the rules of the road for using white spaces.

WASHINGTON (AP) – Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia has temporarily blocked a state court order requiring tobacco companies to pay $270 million for a smoking cessation program in Louisiana. Scalia granted a re-

quest from the companies on Tuesday, but said he would reconsider his order later this month after hearing from Louisiana plaintiffs who won a class-action lawsuit against the cigarette makers. The companies lost

their bid in state court to throw out the award or at least delay the payment. They want the high court to throw out the judgment against them and relieve them of having to pay out the money while the case is being appealed.

iff,” said Rockingham County Sheriff Sam Page, president of the North Carolina Sheriffs’ Association. The N.C. General Assembly approved presenting the referendum issue to the voters during the legislative session earlier this year. Sen. Stan Bingham, RDavidson, was primary sponsor of the bill. The campaign over the constitutional change takes place against the backdrop of former Davidson County Sheriff Gerald Hege’s unsuccessful bid earlier this year to regain the office. Hege pleaded guilty six

years ago to felony obstruction of justice as he resigned as sheriff. The sheriffs from the Piedmont said Tuesday Hege wasn’t the only inspiration for the constitutional amendment proposal, since other felons with a lower public profile than Hege have run for sheriff in other parts of the state. Supporters of the referendum issue don’t know of any organized opposition to the proposal, said Eddie Caldwell, executive vice president of the Raleigh-based Sheriffs’ Association. “It’s a nonpartisan

issue,” Caldwell said, adding that sheriffs of both parties back the constitutional change. Federal law prohibits a felon from possessing a firearm, meaning a felon serving as a sheriff in North Carolina couldn’t carry a gun. “We want our fellow citizens to know that many hardships will result if a convicted felon is allowed to serve as the chief law enforcement officer in the county responsible for protecting and serving you and other citizens in your county,” Page said. pjohnson@hpe.com | 888-3528

JOPLIN, Mo. (AP) – A southwest Missouri teenager dressed as a machete-wielding madman to promote a Halloween store was the one who ended up getting a scare. The Joplin Globe reports a police officer pointed a gun at the costumed teenager and or-

dered him to the ground Saturday after getting a report that a disturbed person was brandishing a weapon on a city street. The teen, whose name was not released, wore a mask and swung what later proved to be a plastic machete while waving to cars outside

the Spirit of Halloween store. Other officers arrived and quickly determined the boy posed no threat. Rick Henderson, consignment owner of the store, says the boy was not acting strangely. He says a large banner advertised that it was a Halloween store.

Eiffel Tower bomb threat was false alarm PARIS â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Parisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Eiffel Tower and its immediate surroundings were evacuated Tuesday evening after an anonymous caller phoned in a bomb threat, but a police search turned up nothing suspicious, French media reported. Officials evacuated about 2,000 people and combed through the 324-meter (1,063-foot) tower, a Paris police spokesman said. By midnight, people were walking around and riding bikes underneath Franceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most popular tourist spot again.

family put up the money for the bail and they thanked U.S. ally Oman, which they said had played a critical, behindthe-scenes role in securing Shourdâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s release. However, the case that has deepened strains between the U.S. and Iran was still far from resolved. Shortly after announcing Shourdâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s release, Iranian authorities said they are not considering the immediate release of the two Americans arrested with Shourd.

Document charts path to Cubaâ&#x20AC;&#x2DC;s reform HAVANA â&#x20AC;&#x201C; An internal Communist Party document envisions a radically revamped Cuban economy, with a new tax code, freshly legalized private cooperatives and a state payroll no longer shackled by the need to support at least a half-million idle or unproductive workers. The document â&#x20AC;&#x201C; obtained Tuesday by The Associated Press â&#x20AC;&#x201C; also offers a cold dose of reality for those who think reforming one of the last bastions of Soviet-style communism will be easy: It warns that many of the new businesses will be shuttered within a year. The 26-page document fleshes out some of the details of sweeping layoffs of 500,000 workers by March 2011 that Cuba announced Monday in the most dramatic reform instituted since President Raul Castro took over from his ailing brother, Fidel, in 2008.

Thirty-four others on board survived. The French-built ATR 42 went down about six miles (10 kilometers) from its destination, the airport in the eastern city of Puerto Ordaz. Workers at the state-run Sidor steel foundry pulled people from the smoking wreckage.

Israel accused of not investigating deaths JERUSALEM â&#x20AC;&#x201C; An Israeli human rights group charged in a report released Tuesday that Israelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s military has failed to adequately investigate cases in which Palestinian civilians have been killed by soldiers. The Bâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Tselem report said that in the past four years, soldiers have killed 1,510 Palestinians, including 617 civilians, but no soldiers have been indicted. The figure does not include civilians killed during the Israeli military offensive in the Gaza Strip in 2008-09.

No progress seen on Israeli settlements SHARM EL-SHEIKH, Egypt â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Under pressure to compromise, Israeli and Palestinian leaders on Tuesday dug into the central issues blocking a peace deal but the latest talks produced no visible progress on the divisive issue of Jewish settlements. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas held an extra, unscheduled session with U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, but there was no word on signs of a breakthrough.

French pass ban on full Muslim veils PARIS â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The French Senate on Tuesday overwhelmingly passed a bill banning the burqa-style Islamic veil on public streets and other places, a measure that affects less than 2,000 women but that has been widely seen as a symbolic defense of French values. The Senate voted 246 to 1 in favor of the bill in a final step toward making the ban a law â&#x20AC;&#x201C; though it now must pass muster with Franceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s constitutional watchdog.

30 insurgents killed in Afghanistan KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Up to 30 insurgents have been killed in fighting ahead of this weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s parliamentary elections in Afghanistan which the Taliban want to undermine, NATO and Afghan officials said Tuesday. The military alliance said that up to 23 militants were killed in action in southern Helmand province Monday and three in eastern Wardak province Tuesday. An Afghan official said four Taliban were killed Tuesday in southeastern Zabul province. There were no reports of casualties among joint NATO-Afghan forces. Attacks and clashes are rising amid an allied

offensive aimed at suppressing the continuing Taliban insurgency. Meanwhile, tensions were rising ahead of Saturdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s parliamentary elections. The Taliban has vowed to target polling stations and warned Afghans not to participate in what it calls a sham vote. NATO said the coalition forces killed three â&#x20AC;&#x153;known manufacturersâ&#x20AC;? of improvised explosive devices in Wardak, just west of capital Kabul. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The removal of these criminals effectively removed a potential threat to the people of Afghanistan,â&#x20AC;?

It’s time to review special tax status for churches Consider the following: Fred “Thank God for Dead Soldiers” Phelps, a Vatican that shelters child-abusing priests while telling Africans that condoms will give them AIDS, Scientology, Jeremiah Wright, the FLDS Church (think Proposition 8), and the so-called “Ground Zero Mosque” inside Park 51. These are all beneficiaries of federal and state laws exempting churches from taxation. More than that, they’re all encouraged by profit to some degree. The laws were crafted with good intentions. Legislators didn’t like the idea of the IRS having influence over religion, and churches were assumed to be serving the community as charitable institutions. A charity is not automatically religious (consider Goodwill and the Red Cross) and a church is not automatically a charity. Most do good works, and it can be argued that the parts of them related to charities should be exempted. These laws were intended to prevent the entanglement

of church and state, but they haven’t worked out that way. There needs to be a provable community benefit for all tax-exempt dollars. Otherwise, why are we paying for their fair share of road use, governmental overhead or defense? Even if you agree with one group – even if, for some reason, you think it’s okay for the FLDS Church to be tax exempt while using its resources to try to force Californians to live by its rules – consider other examples, like Fred Phelps being effectively given your money to help him picket military funerals. I don’t care for the prayer space in Park 51 for the same reason I don’t care for any similar project being given special status. It’s not only their money that’s better spent elsewhere. It’s ours. CHARLES L. HONEYCUTT Thomasville clhoneyc@gmail.com

President, Congress should all just get out of town May I say a few words, my words? The only way out of the mess that this great country is currently experiencing, is for our president and all of Congress take a six months sabbatical – with pay! They cannot get paid if they stay in Washington. The National Guard will have to verify that all have left the city of Washington. If all will repeat after me – President Bush is not president; President Bush is not president. I have heard this lame excuse for the economy being Bush’s fault; I could throw up! Cut the rise of taxes. Small business will not hire when they will lose money by high taxes. Nancy Pelosi got all steamed up over people that objected to

the mosque being built close to ground zero. She wants an investigation. Will she include Sen. Reid in this debacle, for he is against the mosque being built there? Duh! The Washington group that is now in power – both parties – had best remember: We did not just fall off a turnip truck. We are mad as h... that you pay us no attention when we tell you to stop spending money we do not have. May God bless this great country and help us survive this wave of craziness!

Media bean-counters strike again with the race card

No one says it is racism that explains why blacks are over-represented and whites under-represented in basketball. Bean-counters only make a fuss when there is a disparity that fits their vision or their agenda. OPINION Years ago, a study was made of the ethnic make-up Thomas of military forces in countries Sowell around the world. Nowhere ■■■ was the ethnic make-up of the military the same as the ethnic make-up of the population, or even close to the same. In countries around the world, all sorts of groups differ from each other in all sorts of ways, from rates of alcoholism to infant mortality, education and virtually everything that can be measured, as well as in some things that cannot be quantified. If black and white Americans were the same, they would be the only two groups on this planet who are the same. One of the things that got us started on heavy-handed government regulation of the housing market were statistics showing that blacks were turned down for mortgage loans more often than whites. The bean-counters in the media went ballistic. It had to be racism, to hear them tell it. What they didn’t tell you was that whites were turned down more often than Asians. What they also didn’t tell you was that black-owned banks also turned down blacks more often than whites. Nor did they tell you that credit scores differed from group to group. Instead, the media, the politicians and the regulators grabbed some statistics and ran with them. The bean-counters are everywhere, pushing the idea that differences show injustices committed by society. As long as we keep buying it, they will keep selling it – and the polarization they create will sell this country down the river.

he bean-counters have struck again – this time in the sports pages. Two New York Times sport writers have discovered that baseball coaches from minority groups are found more often coaching at first base than at third base. Moreover, third-base coaches become managers more often than first-base coaches. This may seem to be just another passing piece of silliness. But it is part of a more general bean-counting mentality that turns statistical differences into grievances. The time is long overdue to throw this race card out of the deck and start seeing it for the gross fallacy that it is. At the heart of such statistics is the implicit assumption that different races, sexes and other subdivisions of the human species would be proportionately represented in institutions, occupations and income brackets if there was not something strange or sinister going on. Although this notion has been repeated by all sorts of people, from local loudmouths on the street to the august chambers of the Supreme Court of the United States, there is not one speck of evidence behind it and a mountain of evidence against it. Ask the bean-counters where in this wide world have different groups been proportionally represented. They can’t tell you. In other words, something that nobody can demonstrate is taken as a norm, and any deviation from that norm is somebody’s fault! Anyone who has watched football over the years has probably seen at least a hundred black players score touchdowns – and not one black player kick the extra point. Is this because of some twisted racist who doesn’t mind black players scoring touchdowns but hates to see them kicking the extra points? At our leading engineering schools – M.I.T., CalTech, etc. – whites are underrepresented and Asians over-represented. Is this anti-white racism or pro-Asian racism? Or are different groups just different? As for baseball, I have long noticed that there are more blacks playing centerfield than third-base. Since the same people hire centerfielders and third-basemen, it is hard to argue that racism explains the difference.

YOUR VIEW POLL

OUR VIEW

he United Way of Greater High Point has through the years been known to set ambitious goals for its annual fundraising campaigns to help support area human service agencies and other projects. In 2008 and 2009, United Way leaders again followed that tendency, setting goals of $4.6 million in 2008 and $4.5 million in 2009. But against the backdrop of what became the nation’s worst economic climate in decades, some might now, in hindsight, call those optimistic goals a bit unrealistic. In 2008, the drive fell short of its goal, but raised a respectable $4.52 million. In 2009, the drive again fell short, but the $4.33 million total still was a better drive than most United Ways in North Carolina experienced. Unfortunately, the national economic climate remains a question, so the United Way board of directors has set what many would call a more realistic goal in view of the economic picture. On Monday, Randy Brodd, this year’s United Way campaign chairman, and other leaders of the drive announced a 2010 campaign goal of $4.25 million, down $250,000 from last year’s goal, and about $80,000 less than actually raised last year. In speaking with the Enterprise, Bobby Smith, president of United Way of Greater High Point, put this year’s campaign goal in perspective when he noted that at the kickoff of last year’s campaign, he already was aware of $250,000 in contributions from the 2008 campaign that would not be coming in 2009. “This year, I know of $80,000 to $100,000 more,” Smith said. “We wanted to set a more realistic goal given the economic conditions everyone is coping with.” On Monday, United Way staff and volunteers went right to work trying to help folks cope. The “CAN-paign” kickoff unfolded a bit differently than campaign kickoffs have in the past. Brodd and Smith used a 28-foot truck to visit 25 local businesses where volunteers had led food collection efforts to mark the campaign’s beginning. An estimated 10,000 canned and nonperishable food items were collected to be distributed to help restock about 10, maybe more, of the area’s overtaxed food pantries. It was an appropriate way to kick off a $4.25million fundraising drive to aid United Way partner agencies who attempt to fight hunger and improve lives in our communities. Maybe in a few months, we’ll look back and in hindsight call this year’s $4.25 million goal perhaps unrealistic, too. Maybe, through a committed community fundraising effort, we’ll be labeling this goal ... broken.

Just what does that word â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;liberalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; mean?

THREE VIEWS

---

ou hear the word â&#x20AC;&#x153;liberalâ&#x20AC;? thrown around a lot today. The Democrats, Barack Obama and MSNBC are all called â&#x20AC;&#x153;liberalâ&#x20AC;? in their political views. But what does â&#x20AC;&#x153;liberalâ&#x20AC;? mean? Well, if you break the word down, it derives from the Latin word â&#x20AC;&#x153;liber,â&#x20AC;? which means â&#x20AC;&#x153;freeâ&#x20AC;? (as in speech). It is where we get our modern word â&#x20AC;&#x153;liberty.â&#x20AC;? And that is exactly what the word meant when it was originally used. Liberalism was based on the belief that people have natural rights no other person should take away (the traditional trio is life, liberty and property), and that government should exist to protect the rights of the people when they conflict. That particular liberal tradition is responsible for our modern ideas of limited government and the separation of powers, as well as the free market, and you can see its influence in the Declaration of Independence. However, the ideas being disseminated by people frequently called liberal today donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem to match up with this original portrait of liberalism. So what happened? There was a major split among liberals, between classical liberals and social liberals. The difference can be summed up in how the two groups view rights. The concept of a â&#x20AC;&#x153;negative libertyâ&#x20AC;? states that if you have a right to something, no one can use force to interfere with that right. If you are trying to speak in public, and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not attempting to coerce people (which infringes on their rights), no one can use force to stop you. The concept of a â&#x20AC;&#x153;positive liberty,â&#x20AC;? on the other hand, states that if you have a right to something, people must provide you with it if you cannot provide it yourself. If you have the right to an education and cannot provide it yourself, someone else has to help you get one. Classical liberals generally restrict the governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s role to protecting negative liberty. They believe that if the government tries to provide positive liberties like

Attention City Council candidates The Enterprise is offering to candidates for High Point City Council and the mayorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s post the chance to write one guest column about their candidacies to be published prior to city elections, which will be held Nov. 2.

education or health care, it is overexerting its role and may violate peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s economic negative liberties. On the contrary, social liberals believe that the governTEEN VIEW ment just protecting negative liberty isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t Matthew enough. They believe Frazier that the government â&#x2013; â&#x2013; â&#x2013; should also provide some of these positive liberties since private entities canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t guarantee them. (And just so weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re clear: classical liberals arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t against things like education and health care; they just believe that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not the governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s role to provide them.) In America, the two viewpoints have shifted farther apart and received new names since the split. Classical liberalism has been adopted by libertarianism, which has the same basic principle: government has a limited role, that being to protect the personal and economic rights of its citizens. The name â&#x20AC;&#x153;libertarianismâ&#x20AC;? was chosen because â&#x20AC;&#x153;liberalâ&#x20AC;? was already associated with social liberals in America at the time. And social liberalism eventually transformed into progressivism, as exemplified by Teddy Roosevelt. It was known for increasing direct democracy, regulating large corporations, and providing services for the poor. Somewhere down the line, progressive views were absorbed by modern left-wingers, and the Democratic Party is known as â&#x20AC;&#x153;liberalâ&#x20AC;? because of their social-liberal origins. So that is where liberals came from. Interesting, isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t it? Politics has changed a lot, and if you want to better understand what you believe, you should research the history of your party and your political views. What you find may surprise you.

Democrats wary of leaving out rich from tax cuts

Tea party favorite Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Donnell wins in Delaware primary WASHINGTON (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Virtually unknown a month ago, Christine Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Donnell of Delaware rode a surge of support from tea party activists to victory in the Republican Senate primary Tuesday night, dealing another setback to the GOP establishment in a campaign season full of them. A second upstart led for the GOP nomination in New Hampshire. Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Donnell defeated Rep. Mike Castle, a fixture in Delaware politics for a generation who campaigned with the strong backing of party officials in his state and in Washington. In New Hampshire, lawyer Ovide Lamontagne led former Attorney General Kelly Ayotte, 45 percent to 35 percent, with votes counted from 18 percent of the precincts.

Senate candidate Christine Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Donnell talks to voters in Wilmington, Del., on Tuesday. A former chairman of the state Board of Education, Lamontagne campaigned with the support of tea party activists, while Ayotte had a coalition of establishment Republicans, former Alaska Gov.

WASHINGTON (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Congressional Democrats on Tuesday wrestled over whether to abandon President Barack Obamaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tax cut plan, with some House moderates joining Republicans in calling for an extension of Bush-era breaks for the wealthy as well as middle-income earners. But Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi remained solidly behind Obamaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s proposal to allow tax cuts for upper-income people to expire as scheduled at the end of the year. The divisions among Democrats contrasted with strong unity among Republicans in supporting a full renewal of all tax cuts, regardless of income. Still, House Republican leader John Boehner said over the weekend he would vote to extend the relief for only middle-income Americans if that were the only option available.

Some exhibitors say increase in traffic made fall Pre-Market worthwhile BY PAM HAYNES ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – Gaining a handful of new customers made opening for Pre-Market worth the effort, according to officials in the Lee Furniture Company showroom on Tuesday. “We saw five new customers this time,” said Keely Rhodes, president of sales for the company. “If we see anyone we wouldn’t normally see, then we’re happy.”

The two-day Pre-Market ended Tuesday with some exhibitors reporting an increase in traffic. The biannual event, which usually precedes the High Point Market by about a month, offers an exclusive preview of products to major buyers before it is shown at the furniture market. The High Point Market Authority touted a longerthan-ever list of exhibitors and buyers for the fall show.

“There’s definitely an uptick of buyers,” Rhodes said. “We’re absolutely satisfied with what we saw.” Officials in the U.S. Furniture Inc. showroom at the corner of S. Main Street and Greene Drive said traffic was flat compared to the spring show, but buyers seemed to have regained some confidence. “Our traffic is not really up, but the buyers who have come in have had a positive attitude,” said

Wayne Harris, vice president for the Eastern Sales Division. “But anyone who is here looking is looking for a deal.” Harris said he has noticed that consumers’ wallets still are strained, and they continue to cut back. In turn, retailers are looking for inexpensive items to put on their floors. “Apparently these consumers do not want to pay more than $1,000 for any piece of furniture,” Harris

said. “If you’re offering a good deal here (at Pre-Market), then you’re probably doing some business. But you have to have a smoking hot deal. They are really looking for promotionally priced merchandise.” Furniture lines shown at Pre-Market that were not exclusively purchased by retailers will appear at the fall furniture market, scheduled for Oct. 16-12.

Stamey Hardin stands in front his former GM dealership in Thomasville. Although he still operates his Carolina AutoCare repair center on the site, he’s searching for a new tenant to occupy the showroom and sales center.

Owner of Thomasville dealership site seeks to fill vacancy BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

THOMASVILLE – The owner of the former Thomasville Chevrolet Buick Pontiac on National Highway is searching for a new tenant after his most recent tenant consolidated in High Point. Stamey Hardin, owner of Carolina AutoCare, said the owner of Carolina AutoMart, operated by Carolina Kia in High Point, recently decided to consolidate with his dealership in High Point. Carolina AutoCare and Carolina AutoMart have been operating at 1025 National Highway since February. The car lot had carried the General Motors trademark for several years before Hardin and

Chevrolet parted ways earlier this year. “What we had was the fact that Carolina Kia and Carolina Hyundai had several car locations and they were trying to diversify,” Hardin said of Carolina AutoMart’s consolidation. “It was nothing against Thomasville. It was the fact that it just cost them so much to maintain so many different locations. They just decided to consolidate it into one location.” David McNeill, owner of Carolina Kia, said the two issues that caused the consolidation were personnel and a lack of inventory. He said he believes car sales at 1025 National Highway could do well. “Actually, I think it’s a really good opportunity,” McNeill said.

“I’d like to go back, but in our case, it’s a personnel and inventory issue. We can’t find the used cars, much less for two. I do think it’s an opportunity over there. As tough as things are, I still think somebody could do really well there.” Hardin said his Carolina AutoCare, which operates with the NAPA brand, remains open at 1025 National Highway and is doing well. He said his mechanics can do everything it previously did as Thomasville Chevrolet Buick Pontiac with the exception of warranty repairs. “The folks have been supportive of us,” he said. “They appreciate the fact that we are trying to maintain a business in Thomasville. A lot of people are closing

up and that sort of thing and they have been extremely supportive. A lot of our customers are continuing to utilize us.” Hardin, meanwhile, continues to look for a new tenant for the dealership. “We are open to a good professional company to come in here, preferably somebody in the car business,” he said. General Motors offered Hardin a chance to reapply, but he said that wasn’t in the “cards” for him as he had already changed directions and gone with the NAPA franchise. “It’s sort of hard to put the toothpaste back in the tube,” he said.

Veteran character actor Harold Gould dies at 86 MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

LOS ANGELES – Harold Gould, a veteran character actor who played con man Kid Twist in the 1973 movie “The Sting,” Valerie Harper’s father on TV’s “Rhoda” and Betty White’s boyfriend on “The Golden Girls,” has died. He was 86. Gould, who also was known for his stage work, died Saturday at the Motion Picture & Television Fund retirement community in Los Angeles of prostate cancer, said Leah Gould, his daughter-in-law. A former university drama teacher who launched his career in front of the camera in the early ’60s, Gould appeared in movies such as “Harper,” the 1974 remake of “The Front Page,” “Love and Death,” “Silent Movie,” “Freaky Friday” and

“Patch Adams.” Over the past five decades, he made scores of Gould guest appearances on TV shows such as “Route 66,” “Perry Mason,” “Dr. Kildare,” “The Jack Benny Program,” “The Big Valley,” “Soap,” “Spencer” and, most recently, “Nip/ Tuck.” On television, Gould may be best remembered for playing Martin Morgenstern on the 1974-78 situation comedy “Rhoda” and Miles Webber on the 1985-92 sitcom “The Golden Girls.” “He was such a fine actor and such a lovely man,” White said in a statement to the Los Angeles Times on Monday. “He will be sorely missed.”

In his role as her “long-suffering, adoring dad” on “Rhoda,” Harper said Monday, “Harold brought an extraordinary humor, class, grace and a twinkle to create the character of Martin Morgenstern,” which began on “The Mary Tyler Moore Show.” Describing Gould as “a friend as well as a co-worker,” Harper told the Times that “he was one of the loveliest gentlemen – and so funny and so good at what he did.” Gould was nominated for five primetime Emmys: In 1975 for an episode of “Police Story,” in 1978 for an episode of “Rhoda,” in 1980 for “The Scarlett O’Hara War,” in 1986 for “Mrs. Delafield Wants to Marry” (opposite Katharine Hepburn) and in 1990 for an episode of “The Ray Bradbury Theater.”

NC Zoo giraffe found dead ASHEBORO (AP) – The North Carolina Zoo says one of its bestknown residents has died. Julie, the zoo’s 33year-old female giraffe and the second oldest giraffe in captivity, was found dead when workers arrived Tuesday morning. Zoo Senior Veterinarian Dr. Ryan DeVoe said a necropsy, or animal autopsy, showed Julie had suffered a ruptured aorta caused by pressure from cancerous growths at the base of the heart. Records from the Association of Zoos & Aquariums shows Julie was the second oldest giraffe in captivity behind Clara, a female giraffe at the Bronx Zoo in New York who is 35. Giraffes normally live 20 to 25 years. The N.C. Zoo’s other giraffes, three males and a female ranging in age from 21⁄2 to 3 years, remain on exhibit and in good health.

Landfill law upheld RALEIGH (AP) – A judge has upheld a 2007 law restricting the size and location of North Carolina landfills by ruling in a lawsuit over a multistate dump essentially derailed by the legislation. Wake County Superior Court Judge Henry Hight ruled this week in favor of the state and advocacy groups, writing that mandatory buffers between environmentally sensitive areas and maximum landfill sizes were enacted for a legitimate governmental purpose. Waste Industries USA and its Black Bear Disposal subsidiary sued in late 2007 because they said the law was aimed at the Camden County landfill.

Kannapolis cancels Christmas parade MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

Author speaks at Wake Forest about wrongful convictions WINSTON-SALEM (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Bestselling author John Grisham lauded a commission in North Carolina that evaluates prisoners claims of innocence, and said Tuesday that it would be duplicated across the country. Grisham, known for his courtroom thrillers, has lended his celebrity and skills as a lawyer to national efforts to re-examine convictions where doubt exists. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so far-sighted and progressive, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s almost a dream,â&#x20AC;? Grisham said of North Carolinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Innocence Commission. The commission earlier this year held hearings that led to the release of Greg Taylor, who spent 17 years in prison for a murder he didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t commit. Grisham, 55, has been involved in what he called the innocence movement ever since researching and writing a nonfiction book, â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Innocent Man,â&#x20AC;? about an Oklahoma man wrongly sentenced to

death row. Even as a former public defender in Mississippi, Grisham said he wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t fully aware of how widespread wrongful convictions are until he began his research. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I realized there are a lot of innocent people in prison, and most Americans donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t believe that, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s true,â&#x20AC;? he told reporters before addressing nearly 2,000 people at Wake Forest University. Grisham, invited as part of the university law schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Innocence and Justice Clinic, also touched on recent revelations brought to light by the Taylor case. During Taylorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hearings in February, a State Bureau of Investigation agent testified that analysts did not always include the complete results of blood tests on lab reports that were submitted to court. The testimony led to a review of the labâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s blood unit by two former federal law enforcement agents. The scathing report found that eight analysts omitted, overstated

or falsely reported blood evidence in dozens of cases, including three that ended in executions and another where two men were imprisoned for killing Michael Jordanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s father. The report did not conclude that any innocent people were convicted. In some cases, there was additional evidence or admissions of guilt. But the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s attorney general has ordered prosecutors and defense lawyers to check whether tainted lab reports helped lead to confessions or guilty pleas. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s got people scared to death,â&#x20AC;? Grisham said, particularly the possibility that innocent people may have been executed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to wake up one day with the clear knowledge, clear proof, that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve executed the wrong person,â&#x20AC;? he said. Taylor attended the talk and said he hopes Grishamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s message sticks with the law students.

Drunken indiscretion threatens relationship

ear Abby I have gotten myself into a â&#x20AC;&#x153;pickleâ&#x20AC;? and I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know how to get out of it. I rent a house with two roommates (both males) and have always followed a strict rule of not dating roommates or co-workers. One night, I came home after having a few drinks with friends. One of my roommates was up and we started talking. Then he started kissing me. I wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t thinking clearly, and didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t object when he trotted me off to my room. I do like him, but only as a friend. There are no sparks for me as there are for him. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want this to happen again, but I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to hurt him either. In an ideal world, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to remain friends and roommates, not lovers. Do you have any suggestions? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t Believe I Broke My Rule in Florida Dear Canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t Believe: Yes, I do. You need to quit drinking or institute another â&#x20AC;&#x153;ruleâ&#x20AC;? that youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll stop at two. Inform your amorous roommate that in the cold sober light of day you regret what happened and donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to repeat it. It wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t â&#x20AC;&#x153;hurtâ&#x20AC;? him; it will let him know where things stand, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important that he get that message. If you do remain roommates,

ADVICE Dear Abby

maintain some distance â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t come home â&#x20AC;&#x153;pickledâ&#x20AC;? again because you know what could happen if you do.

â&#x2013; â&#x2013; â&#x2013;

Dear Abby I am a girl in high school and have a friend, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Joey,â&#x20AC;? who is gay. Joey saw another guy, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Eric,â&#x20AC;? who he thought was cute, and he made me go over and ask Ericâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s friend if Eric is gay. His friend told me he is straight. Eric lives in my neighborhood and we became good friends. He has asked me out and I would say yes, except that Joey said he likes him. Joey has never spoken to Eric and only likes him in an â&#x20AC;&#x153;appreciatingâ&#x20AC;? sense. And of course, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the fact that Eric isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t gay. What should I do? Does the â&#x20AC;&#x153;girl codeâ&#x20AC;? apply to your gay friends, too? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Conflicted in the South Dear Conflicted: With the â&#x20AC;&#x153;girl code,â&#x20AC;? girls agree not to date men another girl has her sights set on â&#x20AC;&#x201C; theoretically, because there is the possibility that he can be snagged if thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no interference. But in a case like this, where a gay person â&#x20AC;&#x153;appreci-

atesâ&#x20AC;? someone who is straight, the chance is remote to nonexistent. Out of consideration for Joeyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s feelings, talk with him about this. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sure he will appreciate your concern for his feelings â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and give you his OK. Dear Abby My cousin â&#x20AC;&#x153;Cecilyâ&#x20AC;? has been married for 30 years to a man the entire family thinks is wonderful. So did I, until I spotted him in a restaurant a few weeks ago kissing a woman half his age â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and who was certainly not Cecily. I feel awful with this knowledge, but feel worse about ruining their marriage. Do I have a responsibility to share this information with Cecily because she is family? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Related To The Kissinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Cousin in New Mexico Dear Related: How would you feel if Cecily spotted your husband of 30 years canoodling with a young woman in a restaurant? Would you want to be warned? If the answer is yes, then have a word with your cousin. It may not ruin their marriage; it might help to save it.

Headhunters rate UNC-CH, NCSU among top 25 places MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

RALEIGH â&#x20AC;&#x201C; N.C. State University and UNC-Chapel Hill are in the top 25 of at least one poll this autumn. The Wall Street Journal said its survey of corporate recruiters ranked the two schools among the best places to find job candidates. N.C. State ranked 19th and UNC 25th in the poll, published Monday by the Journal. The top-ranked school was Penn State, followed by Texas A&M.

Thousands of NC workers split $8 million in raises RALEIGH (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; North Carolina legislators keeping an eye on spending in lean times are learning of $8 million in pay raises this spring to state employees who took on extra work or got promotions. State Senate leader Marc Basnight said Tuesday at his family-owned Outer Banks restaurant he and his cooks and waiters are working harder for less money because of the recession. The Dare

County Democrat says state employees should only get raises if they have a high-value job and are being lured away. A new report produced for legislators found that more than 2,300 workers collected $8.23 million in pay raises between April and June, mostly due to promotions. The raises donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean state government is spending more since agencies each have a budget to live within.

Author John Grisham answers a question from Wake Forest University law student Jessica Hollenbach (right) during an appearance at the university on Tuesday.

KANNAPOLIS â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Kannapolis City Council voted unanimously to cancel its Christmas parade for 2010 in lieu of a Winter Festival it will have on Dec. 4. The Winter Festival will be at the Village Park. The change from a parade to a festival was a response to downtown merchants who said the Christmas parade was bad for business when it was held on Saturday afternoon last year. The parade hinders parking and traffic downtown. Council member Tom Kincaid said he thought the city should do everything it can to encourage and help downtown merchants, who have struggled in recent years. City Manager Mike Legg said the Christmas parade has been held at different times over the years in an attempt to accommodate the communityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s needs. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been held at night during the week. It has been help on a Saturday afternoon.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Having your parade on a Saturday anytime is problematic,â&#x20AC;? Legg said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Downtown businesses say the parade hurts business when it happens on a Saturday.â&#x20AC;? Retailers rely heavily on the last quarter of the year before Christmas to break even or make a profit. Having a Christmas parade discourages some shoppers from coming out. In 2009, the parade began at 4 p.m. at Main and West D streets, and then proceeded down Main Street in front of the David H. Murdock Core Lab on the North Carolina Research Campus before turning left and moving briefly up Laureate Way. The parade was followed by a tree lighting ceremony in Village Park. â&#x20AC;&#x153;After spirited feedback from the community the Kannapolis City Council has decided to launch a new event at Village Park in lieu of the annual Christmas parade,â&#x20AC;? Mayor Bob Misenheimer said in a letter to parade participants regarding the decision.

Damaged tree can do much to heal itself Q

uestion: I lost large limbs on my crab apple tree in a recent storm. The bark ripped off from the central trunk. Can I apply some sort of healing paint to the area?

get sun most of the day and are planted in soil with a layer of sand under the bed. I fertilize the lilies only in June, usually every 10 days. Any ideas on what is causing this?

Answer: First remove damaged limbs, leaving clean cuts. Watch and wait this growing season to see how the crown and roots respond to the damage. Wound dressings, such as tar or paint, can interfere with the natural process of woundwood, the protective response that a tree makes in response to injury. They are not recommended. Question: My Asiatic lilies look beautiful each spring, but the leaves turn yellow, then brown just as the blooms are opening. The stem of the flower appears to be fine. They

Answer: The lilies are probably suffering from botrytis or some other fungal leaf disease. Although wet weather is conducive to the development of fungal diseases, many factors affect the extent and severity of infection from year to year. Good air circulation helps limit infection, so allowing plenty of space between plants is recommended. There are fungicides that can be used to control this fungal disease. They should be applied before the disease is advanced, and frequent applications will be needed during rainy weather. Thorough

remove them so they wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t grow back?

GARDENING 101

â&#x20AC;&#x201C;

cleanup and disposal of infected stalks are also advised. The fungicide daconil can be used to keep the disease from getting worse, as well as can some of the copper based fungicides like Kocide. Fungicides, however, do not get rid of a disease once it is present they just reduce the spread until the growing conditions favoring the diseases change. Remember to practice good sanitation and remove and dispose of the infected leaves not only now but at the end of the growing season as well to reduce the chances of having this problem again next year. Question: What type of roots do grapevines have, and what is the best method to

Answer: Grapes have a deep taproot system. It will be most difficult to get enough removed to ensure that they will not re-sprout. Control of the sprouting by purely mechanical means will not be easy, but simply cutting them with a shovel below the ground line each time they come up will eventually exhaust the food reserves in the root system. Another way to kill the vine is to spray it with 2,4-D herbicide before the leaves have been killed by frost. Grapes are highly susceptible to 2,4-D herbicide, and treatment in the fall when the vines are storing food reserves in the root system has an excellent likelihood of killing the entire plant (root system and all). However, be extremely cautious with this

herbicide as it can damage nearby plants that may not be an intended target. You may already have had a killing frost in your location or you may have insufficient time from application before frost kills the leaves for movement of the herbicide into the root system. In that event, you may simply have to plan to treat (or cut off) the grape suckers next season as they come up. As with all lawn and garden chemicals, consult and obey the product label recommendations regarding application. MASTER GARDENERS will answer questions on horticultural topics. Karen C. Neill, an urban horticulture extension agent, can be contacted at the N.C.

How best to dispose of unused medicines D

ear Dr. Donohue: I want to get rid of a lot of expired medicines. I have heard that flushing them down the toilet or putting them in the garbage will make them end up in our drinking water. What is the proper solution? – M.S.

BLONDIE

Different government agencies have different recommendations for medicine disposal. Congress is trying to resolve those differences. First, check with your drugstore to see if it has a program to dispose of medicines; many do. Also check with your town, county or state to see if it has “take-back” programs. Many do. If you can’t find a facility that accepts old medicines, mix them with coffee grounds, sawdust, kitty litter or similar materials (making them less appealing for children or pets to eat), seal them in a plastic bag and put them in your trash. A few drugs ought to be flushed down the toilet or the sink. These drugs are mostly powerful painkillers, like morphine, fentanyl, oxycodone and Demerol. They pose a danger to children, pets and even adults if accidentally ingested. This advice comes from the Food and Drug Administration. You can find the complete list at www.fda. gov.

Dear Dr. Donohue: I am writing to you, hoping you can enlighten me conHEALTH cerning a cancer Dr. Paul called Donohue mycosis ■■■ fungoides. I know it is a rare cancer that consists of lots of itching, skin sores and skin discoloration. I would like to know its origin and prognosis. My oldest daughter, 43, has it. She was being treated for atopic dermatitis. – V.B. Mycosis fungoides is rare. In a population of a million people, you’d find only about six cases of it. It’s a cancer of T-cells, one kind of white blood cell called lymphocytes. What turns these cells into cancer is something that hasn’t been discovered. Early on, the skin is scaly, itchy and has red patches. Your daughter’s story is typical. The early stages often are mistaken for atopic dermatitis, also known as eczema. The skin patches become raised above the skin’s surface. They may ulcerate. In time, the process can spread to internal organs, such as lymph nodes, lungs, spleen and liver.

Initial treatment is medicine applied directly to the skin that slows the progression of this illness and relieves symptoms, including itching. At more advanced stages, chemotherapy is prescribed. The outlook depends on how much skin is involved and whether internal organs have been infiltrated by it. Dear Dr. Donohue: I have a suggestion for the person who feared public speaking, and it doesn’t involve any medicine. That suggestion is Toastmasters International. Toastmaster club members support each other and share their fears and anxieties about public speaking. They learn from each other and grow at their own pace. People can contact Toastmasters at www. toastmasters.org or at Toastmasters International, P.O. Box 9052, Mission Viejo, CA 92690. My suggestion was the medicine called Inderal. I like your suggestion better. It involves no medicine. 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

Obama urges students to be tolerant PHILADELPHIA (AP) – President Barack Obama, in a message Tuesday to America’s students, urged them to ignore bullies and treat each other with kindness and respect, saying part of the beauty of life “lies in its diversity.” Obama acknowledged that school is tough and that it can be made even tougher by the presence of classroom bullies who make fun of students and try to make those who are different from them feel bad. He said students should ignore the bulliers and celebrate

the differences among them. “What I want all of you, if you do take away one thing from my speech, I want you to take away the notion that life is precious, and part of what makes it so wonderful is its diversity,” Obama said from a Philadelphia school during his second backto-school address. “We shouldn’t be embarrassed by the things that make us different. We should be proud of them,” he said. “Because it’s the things that make us different that make us who we are,

TOONE, Tenn. (AP) – A fire was still burning Thursday afternoon after an explosion injured six workers at a manufacturing plant in southwestern Tennessee that makes flares for the military. Hardeman County Sheriff John Doolen said firefighters at Kilgore Flares Co. in Toone were staying back and letting the fire burn itself out because of the danger there could be another explosion. “There’s a lot of material in that building,” he said Tuesday. “I just think there’s a possibility of another explosion.” Smoke continued to rise from the plant about 75 miles northeast of Memphis long after the explosion happened shortly before noon Tuesday.

YOU CAN DO IT Debbie Rosenquist, a registered dietician with Cornerstone Health Care, displays some gluten-free products. Many of Rosenquist’s newly diagnosed patients don’t think they’re going to be able to make a diet change. “It’s totally doable. It’s not always easy, but it’s doable,” she says.

Cornerstone dietician helps coordinate gluten-free support group BY JIMMY TOMLIN ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

IGH POINT – Last January, as one of Rusty Morris’ friends described the difficulties of having to eat a glutenfree diet, Morris shook his head in disbelief. “I remember thinking, ‘That has got to be a nightmare – I don’t know if I could ever live like that,’ ” Morris recalls. A week later, the 35-year-old High Point man found himself in the office of a registered dietitian who was recommending he go on – you guessed it – a gluten-free diet. His first thought: “There is no way I can do this.” The dietitian, Debbie Rosenquist of Cornerstone Health Care, gets that reaction a lot. “People come in my office and they’re so upset, thinking ‘What am I gonna do?’ ” she says. “I just tell them, ‘You can handle this – you Rusty Morris just eat different.’ ” Gluten-free dieter Rosenquist, who is helping to coordinate a new gluten-free support group for High Point, knows what she’s talking about. Not only is she a registered dietitian who counsels newly diagnosed patients who require a gluten-free diet, she’s also the wife of a man who’s been gluten-free for 22 years. “It’s totally doable,” she says. “It’s not always easy, but it’s doable.” The support group’s inaugural meeting will be held at 5:30 p.m. Monday at Grateful Bread. Cornerstone pharmacist Tiffany Merritt – who has been gluten-free since she was an infant – will be the featured speaker, and a gluten-free meal will be served. Pre-registration is required.

“This support group will offer a comprehensive knowledge base of gluten-free products and products with hidden gluten in them,” Rosenquist says. “For example, you wouldn’t think of soy sauce having gluten in it, but it does. There are products out there that have gluten in them, but the labels don’t say they have gluten.” Gluten is a protein found primarily in wheat, rye and barley, but also in a few everyday products such as medicines, vitamins and lip balms. People who cannot tolerate gluten are diagnosed with Celiac disease, a digestive disorder that damages the small intestine and interferes with absorption of nutrients from food. “For those people, it’s no wheat, no rye, no barley, or anything with those items in it, like barley malt is a big one they have to avoid,” Rosenquist says. “It’s the protein gluten that’s the problem. Anything with that protein erodes the villi in their intestine and gives them diarrhea.” Rosenquist points out that while some people have a full-blown wheat allergy, others experience just a wheat sensitivity and are not as affected by gluten products. “They’re not quite as allergic, but they might have bad sinuses or headaches or an itchy rash on their upper arm or some other part of the body,” she says. “When they avoid the wheat items, their sinuses clear up, they don’t have any more headaches, and the rash goes away.” That was the case for Rusty Morris. Though he hasn’t officially been diagnosed with Celiac disease, he definitely has a gluten in-

The Gluten-Free Support Group of High Point will hold its inaugural meeting at 5:30 p.m. Monday at Grateful Bread, 1506 N. Main St. The featured speaker will be Tiffany Merritt, who has been gluten-free for most of her life. A gluten-free meal will be available for purchase for approximately $15. Pre-registration is required so organizers will know how much food to prepare. To sign up or for more information, call Debbie Rosenquist at 869-5958.

tolerance. “(Rosenquist) started naming these different symptoms” – upset stomach after eating, rash on the upper arms, decreased energy level and other allergy symptoms such as nasal congestion – “and I had about every single one of them,” he recalls. “She said, ‘I think we need to try a glutenfree diet for you.’ So I started the diet, and within a week I started feeling better and started noticing the symptoms going away.” According to Morris, sticking to a glutenfree diet has its challenges, because not all restaurants understand the gluten-free concept, and not all grocery items are appropriately labeled. But the payoff, he says, has been tremendous. “I feel 100 percent better,” he says. “This diet change has forced me to eat healthier and pay attention to what I’m eating, and I feel better because of that.” jtomlin@hpe.com | 888-3579

CROSSWORD

Wednesday, Sept. 15, 2010 CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Prince Harry, 26; Robin Thicke, 33; Tommy Lee Jones, 64; Oliver Stone, 64 HAPPY BIRTHDAY: Focus on making your life better. Decisions you must make may be difficult at first but will actually help you leave the negative in your life behind, with a bright future to look forward to. This is a great year for change and to rid yourself of any denial you’ve been harboring the past few years. Stand up and be counted. Your numbers are 2, 4, 12, 22, 26, 37, 46 ARIES (March 21-April 19): Refuse to let anyone bully you into doing something you don’t care to do. A problem with an agency, institution or regulation will stand in your way. Limit your travel and keep your thoughts to yourself. ★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Talks will lead to research, short trips or a study course. The more information you gather, the better your chances regarding a job or hobby you want to take part in. A romantic encounter is apparent. ★★★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Skip over whatever doesn’t make sense and focus on what you know you can accomplish. Changes at home or with your finances are looking favorable and should be dealt with swiftly. Talk over your concerns and plans with someone who has experience and know-how. ★★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): Think about the interests or skills you want to pursue or offer to others. You have the potential to turn one of your attributes into a moneymaking endeavor. Romance is in the stars and socializing will lead to a passionate encounter. ★★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You may think you have everything under control but the truth is that there is trouble brewing at home or with friends and can blow up if you don’t accommodate some of the requests being made of you. Greater understanding and compromise are required. ★★★★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Love is in the stars and formulating an intimate agreement with someone will lead to a fun evening and a greater understanding of the possibilities that lie ahead. Show your emotions instead of hiding how you feel. ★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Someone will try to stand in your way or lead you in the wrong direction. Do your own research. You cannot leave anything to chance, especially when there are people waiting to sabotage your every move. ★★★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Someone who has something to contribute to your plans, ideas or a project should be contacted. A partnership may not start off well but it has the potential to turn into a profitable working relationship. ★★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Trust in your own judgment and knowledge, not what someone tells you. If you are the one making the changes, you won’t feel displaced. However, if you allow someone else to shift things around, you will be at a disadvantage. Discipline will be necessary. ★★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Don’t let anyone tell you that you cannot do something when you know you are fully capable of the task. You have to show your wisdom, leadership, strength and courage if you want to surpass the expectations of others. ★★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Problems will arise if you are too giving or attainable. A problem will arise if you don’t limit your spending or are too willing to give to others. Take care of your needs and those of your family first. ★★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Your ability to deal will bring a contract or proposal, helping you get your ideas up and running. A partnership will lead to personal changes, making your life easier and offering the assistance you need to reach your goals and ease your stress. ★★★★

BRIDGE In a major tournament a few years ago, West’s jump-overcall of three diamonds was weak and preemptive, as per his partnership agreement. As it happened, the preempt inconvenienced everybody: North, who had to bid his clubs at an uncomfortable level; East, who never got to mention his spades; and South, who faced a horrible rebid problem. East-West lost nothing in theory by missing their 10-card spade fit: Four spades would be down one while four hearts would have failed if West had led a spade or the ace of diamonds. But West led his singleton club, and South, Kerri Sanborn, found a way home.

HOROSCOPE

DAILY QUESTION You hold: S 9 5 4 2 H J 8 D A Q J 10 9 4 C 6. You are the dealer, neither side vulnerable. What do you say? ANSWER: This is a matter of style and temperament. Many players would open two diamonds (weak), preempting the opponents and offering partner a general description of the hand. I remain a purist. I’d pass, avoiding a weak two-bid with a hand so attractive for play at spades. But the modern expert philosophy is, “When in doubt, bid.” East 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.

Wake hopes Stanford pays Price BY GREER SMITH ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER

WINSTON-SALEM – The leadership that Wake Forest freshman quarterback Tanner Price displayed on Saturday came as a pleasant surprise to senior center Russell Nenon. “Tanner came in and it was almost like he was a fifth-year senior and he had been here a long time,” Nenon said Tuesday. “He was laughing and having a good time and encouraging people in the huddle, That was reassuring as an offensive linemen. You know he is maturing. He was nervous when he first got here. When a guy matures that quickly, it shows the kind of player he is.” Able to be cool beyond his years after replacing injured started Ted Stachitas, Price led the Demon Deacons to three second-half touch-

down drives as they outscored Duke 54-48. The performance was good enough for coach Jim Grobe to keep Price at the top of the depth chart heading into Saturday night’s game at 19th-ranked Stanford while the severity of Stachitas’ hand injury is being monitored. “I think Tanner deserves the opportunity to start,” Grobe said. “He played really, really well. We’re trying to not put too much pressure on him, but he deserves the opportunity. It’s not like we had one guy play terrible and the other beat him out. We had two kids who played well. Tanner with his performance in the second half deserves to start at Stanford.” Grobe said Stachitas will play if his hand injury does not limit what he can do as an option quarterback. In the event Stachitas is unable to go, Brendan Cross will become Price’s backup.

Wake has scored more than 50 points in each of its first two games, but faces a stiff challenge in making it three in a row against Stanford. The Cardinal defense has given up just 17 points and 400 total yards in two victories. “They’ve got a physical approach to the game,” Grobe said. “They start with knocking you down and then go on to everything else, on both sides of the ball.” Adding to the degree of difficulty is a kickoff at 11:30 p.m. Eastern time, which means a finish around 2:30 a.m. Grobe said the Deacons will fly to California on Thursday night after ending practice about 5:30 p.m. “Teams that we talked to that left on Friday weren’t happy with the way things turned out,” Grobe said. He thinks the late start will be more of a problem for coaches

than for the players. “I don’t think it will bother the kids because they don’t get started until 11:15, but the coaches will be the ones out there sleep walking,” Grobe said. “(For the players), what we want to do is err on the side of not having too much activity. As coaches we like for them to grind it, grind it, grind it and then they wind up not having enough legs to fly around and make a play. So we’ll try to get out there early enough to get the trip out of our system and then go kick it off.” Stanford’s offense is led by quarterback Andrew Luck, who has thrown for 467 yards and two touchdowns. Grobe said he saw improvement in Wake’s defense as it held Duke to two field goals for the first 17 minutes of the second half after giving up 35 points in the first half. gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3556

Challenges grow for Duke’s defense DURHAM (AP) — Duke gave up 400 yards to an FCS team and 50 points to Wake Forest. Now here comes No. 1 Alabama this week, perhaps with a Heisman Trophy winner back in the lineup. But the Blue Devils say things aren’t as bad as they appear. That’s why Duke’s coaches aren’t scrapping the defense that through two games has given up lots of yards and points. The Blue Devils say the problems look more severe to observers than they actually are. “It’s not really anything deep. With football, you never want to recreate the game or do anything too different,” linebacker Abraham Kromah said Tuesday. “From the outside looking in, it’s really hard to see really specific things that go on. But ... it may be little, really nitpicky things that lead to a touchdown. One person can be out of position, and those types of things can lead to a touchdown or a big play.” They’ve certainly added up for Duke (1-1),

which ranks 105th nationally in total defense and 114th in scoring defense, giving up averages of 453 yards and 401⁄2 points. In both categories, they’re last in what appears to be a weak Atlantic Coast Conference. Those aren’t encouraging numbers entering a matchup against the defending national champion Crimson Tide (2-0), who hope regain running back Mark Ingram. The 2009 Heisman winner has been sidelined so far this season with a knee injury, but they’ve still averaged 500 total yards without him. Whether Ingram plays or not, Alabama quarterback Greg McElroy doesn’t expect the same Duke defense that allowed the Demon Deacons to gain 500 total yards and match a school record with four touchdowns in one quarter. “One week you can go out and have a great week and (as a defense) allow very few points, and you go out another week and lay an egg and allow a whole bunch of points and a whole bunch of yards,” McElroy said.

Pirates brace for voyage to Va. Tech GREENVILLE (AP) — East Carolina has beaten two Conference USA opponents and put up 100 points in doing so. Now comes an even bigger test for the Pirates (2-0): Their first road trip under Ruffin McNeill takes them to face a reeling Virginia Tech team that’s coming off one of the most humiliating losses in school history.

McNeill said Monday that he’s trying to keep his unbeaten team level-headed as it prepares to face the winless Hokies (0-2). He doesn’t want them to be too timid or too overconfident. Virginia Tech’s national championship aspirations seemingly went up in smoke with losses to No. 3 Boise State and FCS mem-

ber James Madison in a sixday span. The Pirates opened the McNeill era with consecutive wins over Tulsa and Memphis in which they scored 51 and 49 points, respectively. But they expect Lane Stadium in Blacksburg, Va., to be even more inhospitable with the Hokies having lost consecutive games. “The momentum is

there,” McNeill said Monday. “I think the biggest thing is you like to have an even keel if at all possible, where each play you’re competing at the highest level, playing the best you possibly can on that particular play.” McNeill hopes his team has received a dose of confidence from its back-to-back wins — one of which came

on a heave on the final play of the Tulsa game. “Those guys have had a taste of victory,” McNeill said. “The first game was down to the wire and last week we had to fight through some things in the game, some lulls that are going to happen during the year. That helps us grow, and to be able to win the football game.”

HIT AND RUN

---

e’re less than three weeks away from the start of the Major League Baseball playoffs. But we’re still nowhere near the end of the regular-season drama. Today’s midweek MLB menu features three tasty televised games with serious postseason implications. Shortly after noon, the Nationals complete a three-game series at the Braves. SportSouth provides the coverage. Washington would like nothing better than

to play the role of spoiler. Atlanta, meanwhile, desperately needs a win to bolster its hopes for either the NL East flag or the wild card. At 7 p.m., the top dogs in the American League East clash in St. Pete as the Yankees tangle with the Rays. ESPN televises the action. New York and Tampa are locked in a furious division race. Whichever team doesn’t take the flag likely will secure the American League wild card,

but that should not lessen the intensity one iota. Finally, the Dodgers visit San Francisco to take on the arch-rival Giants at 10 p.m. ESPN has the coverage. While the Dodgers have fallen out of the playoff hunt, they’d like nothing better than to deliver a serious body blow to the NL West and NL wild-card contending Giants. What a terrific tripleheader. Enjoy!

WHO’S NEWS

---

Reggie Bush says he is forfeiting his Heisman Trophy. The New Orleans Saints’ running back released a statement Tuesday saying he would give back the award that he won in 2005 while he was at Southern California. It’s the first time college football’s top award was returned by a recipient. “While this decision is heart-breaking, I find solace in knowing that the award was made possible by the support and love of so many,” Bush said. “Those are gifts that can never be taken away.” USC was hit with heavy sanctions by the NCAA this summer after it determined Bush had received improper benefits. The NCAA ruled that Bush was ineligible for the 2005 season, which opened the possibility that the Heisman Trophy Trust would take back the award. One of the few guidelines given to Heisman Trophy voters is that a player must be in compliance with NCAA rules to be eligible for the trophy. The eightmember Heisman Trophy Trust, based in New York, had said it would have to consider what to do about Bush, who won in a landslide vote over Texas quarterback Vince Young. There was no immediate word from the Heisman Trust if the award would be vacated or given to Young.

Southwest Guilford’s Larry Edwards (10) bulls his way through the Eastern Guilford earlier this fall. The Cowboys are idle this week. soccer goalie last year. This season, he’s back to doing both. Karson Redfern has punted and handled the kickoffs – jobs his brother is handling as a true freshman this fall for the Terriers. Norwood said the only “bad part” of Ragsdale’s special teams has been kickoff coverage. But plenty of good was on display Friday. “It’s got to be kind of in the stars when you’re down 35-21 with a few minutes left in the game,” Norwood said. Defensively you’ve got to come up with some big stops and offensively you’ve got to score pretty quick. The kids just kept making big play after big play. “It was about as happy as I’ve ever seen a group be,” the coach added of the postgame atmosphere. “Hopefully what it’s done is made a pretty close team a lot closer, made a team that needed little bit of confidence get more confident. But we’ve still got a long way to go.”

THOMASVILLE HOMECOMING The fall weather certainly will arrive any time now, and with it those crisp autumn nights when school’s celebrating their Homecoming football games.

SPECIAL NIGHT AT RAGSDALE The Tigers’ special teams were supposed to take a hit this year considering star kicker Kasey Redfern traded in his Ragsdale jersey for Wofford gear. Page would beg to differ after the Tigers’ 38-35 victory Friday night. Ragsdale trailed 35-21 with 2:55 to play in the fourth quarter before the special rally unfolded. Following Luke Heavner’s 15-yard touchdown pass to Erik Romer, Karson Redfern – Kasey’s brother – delivered a perfect onsides kick that was recovered by Trey Grimes. Only a minute later, the game was tied at 35-all on Anthony Stevens’ TD catch and Brad Davis’ PAT. Page wasn’t content to play for overtime, and didn’t get the chance to after Duncan Sparks’ late interception. Following Sparks’ grab at midfield, the Ragsdale offense moved the ball just inside the 20, setting up a 35-yard field-goal try for Davis with one second to play. The Tigers even called a timeout to stop the clock after getting the ball positioned on the left hash mark with a QB draw. “I didn’t even say a word to him,” Tigers coach Tommy Norwood said. “He went out and put it right down the middle.” Davis kicked for the Ragsdale JV as a freshman, but stepped back from football when he became the varsity

This week, however, marks an unofficial homecoming. After four long weeks on the road, Thomasville finally gets to showcase its 4-0 squad at Cushwa Stadium. “It’s been a tough four weeks, a challenging four weeks, but it’s been a good four weeks,” said Bulldogs assistant coach Dickie Cline. “We are very much looking forward to playing at home for the first time this year. “At the same time, it’s been very exciting to play at places that have great tradition, a lot of great atmosphere,” Cline added. “It’s something that we’re very proud to have accomplished so far, but there’s a lot of work ahead of us.” After a routine 49-13 debut against second-year school Cox Mill, Thomasville pulled out a 21-14 thriller at Mount Airy, a 20-7 decision at A.L. Brown in Kannapolis, and a 20-13 victory at old 1A rival Albemarle. Granted, the schedule doesn’t get easier just yet. This week, Thomasville faces 4A foe Davie County in the first of three straight home games wrapped around the Oct. 1 bye week. shanf@hpe.com | 888-3526

Retail sales hit 5-month high WASHINGTON (AP) – Retail sales rose in August by the largest amount in five months, adding to evidence that a late spring economic swoon was temporary and not the start of another recession. Retail sales increased 0.4 percent last month, the Commerce Department said Tuesday. It was the second straight monthly increase and the biggest gain since March. Excluding a decline in autos, retail sales increased 0.6 percent. That followed two relatively flat months and a sharp drop in May. A separate Commerce report said inventories held by businesses jumped in July by the larg-

Cisco says it will pay dividend by summer NEW YORK – Cisco, the world’s largest maker of computernetworking gear, says it plans to start paying a dividend before the end of its current fiscal year, in July. Like several other big technology companies, Cisco has a large cash balance, and analysts have speculated that it would use it for a dividend. Cisco didn’t say how big the dividend would be.

est amount in two years while sales rebounded after two months of declines. The rebound in sales was an encouraging sign that consumer demand is rising after two weak months. Businesses build up their stocks when they anticipate stronger retail demand in the months ahead. The strength in August retail sales came in a number of areas from department stores to clothing stores and sporting goods outlets. However, bigger-ticket items such as furniture and electronics fell last month. Best Buy said Tuesday that its fiscal secondquarter net income rose 60 percent. The retailer’s standalone mobile stores

helped to boost profits. Shoppers bought cell phones, appliances and tablet computers. Still, sales of televisions, video game consoles, video games, music and movies all fell. Retail sales rose a revised 0.3 percent in July after posting back-toback declines in May and June. Those decreases had raised concerns that the economic recovery was losing strength and that a second recession was possible. Consumer spending accounts for 70 percent of total economic activity. Even with the sales rebound in July and August, economists expect 2 percent growth in the second half of this year.

Small business measure clears hurdle WASHINGTON (AP) – In a win for President Barack Obama and his political allies, Senate Democrats on Tuesday won a crucial vote to clear the way for a bill to create a $30 billion government fund to help open up lending for credit-starved small businesses. Democrats cracked a GOP filibuster of the bill with the help of two Republicans: Sens. George Voinovich of Ohio and George LeMieux of Florida. The 61-37 tally sets the stage for a final vote later this week to return the measure to the House, which is likely to approve it for Obama’s signature. The bill is probably the last piece of Democrats’ ambitious jobs agenda that would become law before midterm elections, which will determine whether Democrats keep their majorities in the House and Senate. Democrats started the year with ambitious plans for a series

of bills designed to boost the economy and job creation but have relatively little to show for it. The nationwide unemployment rate ticked up to 9.6 percent last month. The new fund would be available to community banks with less than $10 billion in assets to encourage lending to small businesses. The bill would combine the fund with about $12 billion in tax breaks aimed at both large and small businesses over the coming decade. Democrats say banks should be able to use the lending fund to leverage up to $300 billion in loans, helping to loosen tight credit markets. Some Republicans, however, have likened it to the unpopular bailout of the financial industry. Democrats say the measure is needed to help small businesses cope with a credit crunch that worsened dramatically after the financial crisis two years ago.

Kroger net income, revenue rise CINCINNATI (AP) – Kroger Co.’s net income and revenue rose in its second quarter, as costcutting and efforts to build customer loyalty against tough competition boosted results at the nation’s largest traditional grocer. The company report Tuesday that net income was $261.6 million, or 41 cents a share. That’s up 2.8 percent from $254.4

million, or 39 cents a year ago. Sales were up 6 percent to $18.8 billion, after $17.7 billion last year, and total sales were up 3.3 percent excluding fuel sales. Analysts surveyed by Thomson Reuters expected 36 cents a share and $18.7 billion in revenue. Sales at stores open at least 15 months, a key retail measure, rose 2.7 percent excluding fuel sales.

NEW YORK (AP) – A September rally faltered on the stock market Tuesday as worries returned about Europe’s economy. The Dow Jones industrial average and the Standard & Poor’s 500 index both closed with slight losses, breaking a four-day winning streak. Stocks are still up strongly this September, a historically weak month for the market. Stocks had edged higher for much of the day following positive reports on U.S. retail sales and business inventories, but retreated in the final 10 minutes of trading as investors’ enthusiasm waned. Disappointing news from overseas hung over the market all day. European markets struggled to end barely higher after reports that German investor confidence fell sharply in September and industrial production unexpectedly stagnated during July in the countries that use the euro. Stocks in Tokyo also fell after the yen touched another 15-year high against the dollar, which is bad news for Japanese exporters. In other signs that investors remain cautious, gold climbed to another record and Treasury prices rose, sending interest rates lower. The losses Tuesday for the Dow and S&P 500 were only the second so far this month.

Best Buy income jumps

flat-screen TVs continued to be weak. But that was offset by strength at Best Buy Mobile, which Best Buy has aggressively expanding. Best Buy Mobile is “the single biggest driver of

profit growth for us this year,” said Dunn. As smart phone sales increase, customers have been buying more accessories, services and protection plans, the company said.

OPEC chief: Oil prices ‘comfortable’ VIENNA (AP) – OPEC is “comfortable” with current oil prices and does not want to “rock the boat” as the world recovers from its worst recession in decades, the group’s secretary general said Tuesday, while acknowledging that the group faces abundant challenges in a rapidly changing market. The assurance by Abdalla El-Badri reflects the sense of caution that the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries as it looks to balance an oil market still feeling the effects of the global economic meltdown. But they take on a new twist as the 12-nation group marked its 50th anniversa-

NEW YORK (AP) – Growth in Best Buy Co.’s expanding cell phone business helped the electronics retailer’s secondquarter net income jump 60 percent, the company said Tuesday. Best Buy sounded an optimistic note about the holiday season and raised its guidance for the year. Its shares rose 7 percent during midday trading. CEO Brian Dunn said shoppers are still “highly selective” in their spending. “We believe, however, that this will change in our favor over the back half of the year,” he said. “Customers traditionally rotate their spending to our categories during the holiday shopping season and a strong lineup of

ry – offering signs that the producer bloc is weighing more factors than merely the spot price of crude. One such factor is the health of the broader global economy, which could be hurt by sudden rises in oil prices. Oil stayed above $77 a barrel Tuesday on improving retail sales data and forecasts of shrinking crude supplies. Benchmark crude for October delivery rose 63 cents to $77.82 a barrel at midday on the New York Mercantile Exchange. The contract added 74 cents to settle at $77.19 on Monday. “At this time, we see the world recovery is ... not really clear yet,” El-Badri

said at a news conference marking the birthday. “We don’t want to see a doubledip recession which ... would affect, negatively, almost everybody.” El-Badri also told reporters that a change both in prices and quotas this year depends on “circumstances.” But he declined to comment directly on what OPEC members would do at their meeting a month from now. The group has left its output quotas unchanged since December 2008. His remarks were the latest indication that the group, which supplies about 35 percent of the world’s crude oil, was clear-

ly focused on more than just ways to maximize revenues from oil sales. It’s a shift that, analysts say, points to OPEC’s maturing since five nations decided on Sept. 14, 1960, to work together to protect and capitalize on their chief resource: oil. For a group that was for years used to a market driven by supply and demand, the game has also changed. The use of oil futures as a financial instrument has undercut the old supply-demand mechanism, meaning that OPEC’s ability to control prices through production has, at the very least, been affected in ways that weren’t present a decade earlier.

MIAMI (AP) – Powerful Hurricane Igor is moving west-northwest across the Atlantic on a track that could take the Category 4 storm toward Bermuda. The National Hurricane Center in Miami says swells from Igor were expected to begin affecting the Leeward Islands on Tuesday and reach into Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands Tuesday night and today. The swells could cause life-threatening surf and rip currents. Igor’s maximum sustained winds are near 135 mph (215 kph) and the storm is expected to remain a dangerous hurricane through Thursday.

Colorado fire commander calls next 36 hours pivotal LOVELAND, Colo. (AP) – Firefighters were trying to gain ground Tuesday on a wildfire in the northern Colorado foothills ahead of strong winds expected to move in, potentially spreading the flames. The fire, the second major blaze to break out on the Front Range in a week, has burned nearly 1,000 acres, or about 112⁄ square miles, of tinderdry grass and trees in steep terrain just west of Loveland.

The fire, which has destroyed two homes, was 20 percent contained. Incident team manager Jim Thomas said the fire didn’t move much Monday and that the next 36 hours are pivotal for crews to make headway. Thomas said the fire wasn’t moving toward populated areas. “We’re going to go out and pound on it,” said Thomas, who also led the fight against a wildfire near Boulder that destroyed at least 166 homes.
