CAMPUS EXPANSION High Point University sets sights on basketball arena

BY DAVID NIVENS ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – The next big thing at High Point University could be a $60 million, 5,500-seat basketball arena.

President Nido R. Qubein added the project to the campus expansion list Wednesday at a meeting attended by university and community leaders.

The list also includes a building for a new $50 million health science program, a $30 million library and other upgrades as enrollment grows to 5,000 students by 2017.

It could take as long as four years to find a site and to build the arena, Qubein said, because of other priorities.

“We will build a state-ofthe-art, NBA-type athletic arena,” Qubein said. “We have to build the science school first and take care of the residency needs.”

The arena also would be used for other large gatherings, including graduations.

“When it rains at graduation, we just give out ponchos,” Qubein said.

“We have to do something else.”

The next phase of growth and improvements will boost the campus program to $2.1 billion over 10 years.

State restores funding to shelter

BY PAT KIMBROUGH ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – A local program for victims of domestic violence that faced a major funding cut has gotten a reprieve.

Family Service of the Piedmont representatives were recently notified by state officials that a key grant for Carpenter House in High Point, which provides emergency housing for women and children fleeing domestic violence, has been restored. The N.C. Council for Women, which distributes funds allocated by the N.C. General Assembly for domestic violence programs

across the state, initially declared it would give Family Service money for only one shelter instead of the two it operates – one in Greensboro and one in High Point.

After Family Service representatives contacted state lawmakers, the Council for Women agreed to distribute about $93,000 for both shelters retroactive to July 1. In a letter to Family Service, the agency acknowledged it had not given adequate notice for the change.

“We’re very excited about this,” said Family Service President and CEO Tom Campbell. “I appreciate everybody’s support, particularly the legislators. They really stepped

up to make sure we can continue to provide services to victims of domestic violence.”

A letter to Campbell from Jill Dinwiddie, the Council for Women’s executive director, stated the agency will get only a single allocation for the 2011-12 fiscal year unless state law governing the grants is changed.

“The council maintains that allocation of one grant per county continues to be the appropriate administration of the grant funds,” Dinwiddie wrote.

Campbell said he and others plan to continue lobbying the Joint Legislative Committee on Domestic

Violence to take into account the population of areas where shelters are located when allocating funding.

Guilford County is unusual, since it has shelters in two cities, both of which are seeing heavy demand. In addition to emergency shelter, both provide counseling and transitional housing services.

“What we’ll be doing is working with the legislators to make sure the wording for the general statute around funding is clear,” Campbell said. “It gives us time to do some work on that front.” pkimbrough@hpe.com | 888-3531

World Market Center defaults on loans

BY TIM O’REILEY LAS VEGAS BUSINESS PRESS

LAS VEGAS – Plagued by declining occupancy and lower rents from tenants who stay, the World Market Center has defaulted on the mortgages covering two of its three massive towers.

The Las Vegas furniture market debuted five years ago as the main rival to the 100-year-old High Point Market, which remains the world’s largest home furnishings trade show. The Las Vegas trade show is housed in the World Market Center complex.

A year ago, World Market Center informed the servicing agents for the two loans, totaling $564.7 million, that its declining cash flow would force it to skip payments within months. The default occurred in April, although it was only recently disclosed

The exterior of the World Market Center near downtown Las Vegas in 2005. by outside companies that track commercial loan defaults.

In a July newsletter, credit rating agency Moody’s Investors Service listed the two buildings, A and B, as being in foreclosure proceedings.

But in a report last month,

research service Realpoint said that lenders had extended a forbearance agreement, through which they voluntarily held off on any repossession actions, through Aug. 31.

In a statement Tuesday, World Market Center man-

agement denied foreclosure proceedings were under way.

“Certain parties have been misrepresenting this fact for months despite our notice to them,” the statement said.

Building C, the other component of the World Market Center, opened in July 2008, after the recession had set in and financial markets had largely dried up. As a result, World Market Center could not find a long-term mortgage to replace the $488 million construction loan secured in December 2006.

Typically, construction loans come due in full after five years. But World Market Center declined to comment on the loan or other aspects of its financial condition.

A Realpoint report said that several debt-restructuring proposals had been traded between World Market Center, controlled by developer Jack Kashani and the New York-

based Related Cos., and the agent representing the lenders, but no deals had been reached.

During the past couple of years, distressed real estate has become common in Las Vegas in both the residential and commercial sectors. At $2.9 billion, the Las Vegas valley has the nation’s secondhighest value of delinquencies after New York for loans includedinfinancingvehicles called commercial mortgagebacked securities, according to a Realpoint tally.

But problems for the World Market Center would be a particularly sharp sting because community leaders often held it up as an example of the economic diversification the valley’s economy badly needs.

Guilford SAT scores decline slightly ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

AP

U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan poses with principal Nancy Guzman (left) and teacher Jean Konzelmann along with Konzelmann’s fourth-grade students at Sterling Elementary School in Charlotte on Wednesday.

US Education Secretary: Poor economy forces tough choices CHARLOTTE (AP) – U.S. Education Secretary Arne Duncan warned Wednesday that tough times will continue for school districts across the nation, but praised one North Carolina school system for taking innovative steps to improve education.

Duncan said in Charlotte that many school districts are trying to decide whether to lay off teachers to balance budgets because of the poor economy.

“There’s no simple answer,” Duncan said after a round-table discussion in Sterling Elementary on how to turn around low-performing schools. “Districts are going to have to do more with less. We’re in a tough spot. ... That is reality and

it’s not going to change anytime soon.”

The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools, which has about 133,000 pupils, faces a projected $15 million shortfall this year. He said districts districts should do some creative planning to deal with the issue.

Duncan said the Charlotte system has created programs to turn around low-performing schools like Sterling, where tests scores have improved. He called the district’s Strategic Planning Program a role model for the rest of the nation.

The program, which began in 2008, places the right principals at the right schools and sets measurable achievement standards, Duncan said. Principals make a three-year

commitment to their new schools and receive a 10 percent merit pay supplement and a bonus if their school shows high growth in the second year. Teachers also receive money for making a commitment to those schools.

About 89 percent of Sterling Elementary’s 525 students are black or Latino, and nearly 91 percent qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

Duncan said the program has helped attract talented principals and teachers to low-performing Charlotte public schools.

Superintendent Peter Gorman told the forum of about 50 invited guests – mostly teachers and local officials – that Sterling was an example of the success of the program,

Judge sends dispute over Alcoa permit to trial RALEIGH (AP) – A North Carolina judge says there’s too many issues to resolve to issue a quick decision on a dispute over a state water permit Alcoa Inc. needs for a new federal license

to operate hydropower dams.

State Administrative Law Judge Joe Webster said Wednesday he’ll need a trial later this month before he can decide the issues in dispute over a

certificate issued last year by the Division of Water Quality. Webster rejected a bid to issue a summary judgment for either side in the case. A subsidiary of Pittsburgh-based Alcoa is fighting to renew an

expired license to operate Yadkin River dams built decades ago to supply electricity to an aluminum smelting plant. The Stanly County plant once employed hundreds but is now shuttered.

HPU

School has invested $468 million in major projects

GUILFORD COUNTY – More students are taking the SAT reasoning tests and scores are stable, according to a report released this week.

The district’s mean score on the combined critical reading, math and writing sections of the SAT decreased four points from 1465 in 2009 to 1461 in 2010.

“The SAT and AP (Advanced Placement) results show us that we have more work to do to make sure our students are college-ready,” said Superintendent Mo Green. “We need to push our high achievers as far and as fast as they can go.”

The mean critical reading score for GCS increased one point to 489 while the mean math score decreased by one point to 499. The mean writing score decreased by four points to 473.

The district’s Strategic Plan calls for the participation and performance on both the SAT and Advanced Placement exams to increase by 2012. It sets the goals of increasing AP and SAT participation by 6 percentage points each, increasing the AP passing rate by 6 points and increasing the SAT total mean score by 29 points.

Here are the SAT combined scores for High Point area schools: T.W. Andrews, 1238; High Point Central, 1442; Ragsdale High, 1486 and Southwest High 1427.

SAT performance at several schools was exceptional. Eight schools – Penn-Griffin School for the Arts, Grimsley High, The Early College at Guilford, The Middle College at GTCC-Jamestown, Northern High, Northwest High, Page High and Weaver Academy – had total scores of 1524 or more,

So far, HPU has invested $468 million for major improvements, including 28 new buildings, classrooms, learning centers and more than 100 campus innovations.

Despite the size of the plan, HPU can expand without adding to the $150 million construction debt portfolio, Qubein said.

Attack on SC prison guard renews phone-jam debate COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) – South Carolina authorities who have helped push for permission to block cell phone signals inside prisons say an officer in charge of keeping out contraband was nearly killed at his home – in an attack planned with a smuggled phone.

Corrections Department Capt.

Robert Johnson was getting ready to go to work at Lee Correctional Institution about 50 miles east of Columbia one day last March.

Around 5:30 a.m., a man broke down the front door of Johnson’s mobile home, shooting the 15-year prison veteran six times in the chest and stomach.

“I heard a yell, ‘Police!’” said Johnson, 57, who believes the in-

truder may have been impersonating an officer. “I came out the bathroom door, and there was this person there. I really don’t remember the rest. From the trauma, my mind just went blank.”

Six months into his recovery, Johnson and his bosses want Congress to change a 1934 law that says the Federal Communications Commission can grant permission to jam the public airwaves only to federal agencies, not state or local ones.

The cell phone industry says the jamming methods some states want can interfere with emergency communications and legitimate cell phone use in the area.

They advocate other, potentially

more expensive technology that they say can be more precise but has seen only limited use.

While authorities say Johnson is the first corrections officer in the U.S. harmed by a hit ordered from inmate’s cell phone, other people have been targets. In 2005, a New Jersey inmate serving time for shooting at two police officers used a smuggled phone to order a fatal attack on his girlfriend, who had given authorities information leading to his arrest.

Two years later, a drug dealer in Baltimore’s city jail used a cell phone to successfully plan the killing of a witness who had identified him as the gunman in a previous killing.

Some Allstate customers in NC get refunds RALEIGH (AP) – State officials say more than 1,800 policy holders of Allstate Insurance Co. in North Carolina will receive refunds because the company charged too much for some insurance policies.

State Insurance Commissioner Wayne Goodwin said Wednesday the policy holders will receive refunds totaling more than $680,000.

Goodwin says the company shouldn’t have in-

cluded rental car costs when calculating property damage totals. The mistake occurred from July 2005 to July 2008.

Insurance Department officials say they became aware of the overcharges when researching a consumer complaint, which led to a review of Allstate’s practices. They say Allstate fixed the problem as soon as it became aware of the overcharging.

Troops advance in Taliban stronghold KANDAHAR, Afghanistan – U.S. and Afghan forces began advancing Wednesday through the insurgentfilled district in southern Afghanistan that gave birth to the Taliban movement, treading ground where guerrilla fighters have operated freely for years, the British general in charge of NATO troops here said.

Maj. Gen. Nick Carter said the latest push in Zhari district is part of a crucial strategy aimed at reducing violence in the provincial capital Kandahar by stemming the flow of fighters and weapons there and connecting civilians estranged from their government.

Americans drawn into deadly fighting in Iraq BAGHDAD – For the second time in less than a week, U.S. forces were drawn into deadly fighting against insurgents – a reminder of the ongoing dangers American forces face well after President Barack Obama declared a formal end to combat.

Stabilizing Iraq before all American forces leave still seems a distant dream. Wednesday’s raid, in which at least six people were killed, was in the former insurgent stronghold of Fallujah.

Cars pass by an old oil well next to one of the main highways in Muscat, Oman, Wednesday. The role of royal leaders as middlemen and maybe money men to free American Sarah Shourd from Iran has thrust Oman into a rare spot at center stage.

US accuses Iran of intimidating inspectors VIENNA – A U.S. envoy accused Iran on Wednesday of intimidating U.N. nuclear inspectors in an effort to influence their findings – a move he said may lead to “appropriate action,” from the International Atomic Energy Agency.

Britain, France and Germany also criticized Iran for its decision to ban several inspectors in a toughly worded statement also critical of Tehran for ignoring U.N. Security Council demands.

BP’s Hayward defends record to lawmakers LONDON – Outgoing BP CEO Tony Hayward said Wednesday that he understood anger directed at the energy giant in the wake of the Gulf of Mexico oil spill, but insisted his company had a strong safety record and was not solely to blame for the disaster.

Testifying before a British parliamentary committee, Hayward acknowledged BP had failed both to stop the spill and to plan adequately to respond to an accident of that scale.

Oman in rare spotlight after US hiker’s release MUSCAT, Oman (AP) – Oman’s royal leaders have long preferred the understated approach: No high-rises like their Gulf neighbors and policies that quietly balance close ties with both Washington and Tehran.

Now their role as middlemen – and maybe even money men – to free American Sarah Shourd from Iranian custody has drawn rare attention to the sultanate and its role as low-key diplomat.

Officials have offered few details since spiriting Shourd from Tehran to a royal airfield aboard a private jet.

The 32-year-old was scheduled for a medical exam Wednesday, her first

full day of freedom in more than 13 months, but has given no indication of her plans beyond Muscat. Her mother says her daughter has serious medical problems, including a breast lump and precancerous cervical cells.

Shroud has told family members of two others still being held that she had a chance to say goodbye and they were thrilled for her release.

Sarah Shourd spoke on a conference call from Oman with relatives of her fiance Shane Bauer and friend Josh Fattal. Bauer’s mother Cindy Hickey told The Associated Press about the call Wednesday afternoon.

JERUSALEM (AP) – A mortar attack by Palestinian militants and airstrikes by Israel formed the grim b a c k drop as Mideast leaders ended t h e i r l a t e s t Netanyahu round of peace talks Wednesday, still divided on major issues. There was no word on when they would meet again.

The inconclusive U.S.-brokered talks between Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas left in doubt the prospects for their new effort to end generations of hostilities in the region and create a sovereign Palestine alongside a secure Israel.

U.S. envoy George Mitchell emerged from an evening session to say the talks had been encouraging but had fallen short of agreement.

Mexico wants violence-free 200th birthday MEXICO CITY – Just one day without massacres, beheadings or shootouts.

On its 200th birthday, Mexico wants its citizens – and the world – to forget its vicious drug war and remember the country’s epic history, music, whimsical folk art and continuing crusade for wider prosperity and democracy. All that was on display Wednesday with a $40 million fiesta, two years in the making. The celebrations continue today with a military parade through the capital.

Officials probe 16 baby deaths at hospital SANTO DOMINGO, Dominican Republic – Health officials are investigating the recent deaths of 16 newborns in the capital’s largest maternity hospital, hinting that unhygienic conditions are to blame.

A panel probing the deaths found that certain hospital areas were “very contaminated,” Senen Caba, president of the Dominican Medical Association, told The Associated Press on Wednesday.

Cuba criticizes Obama for keeping embargo HAVANA – Cuba’s foreign minister said Wednesday President Barack Obama has missed a golden opportunity to improve relations, lamenting that nearly two years after he offered an olive branch to Cuba, the U.S. leader has “not lived up to expectations.”

In a speech on the cost of America’s 48-year trade embargo, which Cuba refers to as a “blockade,” Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez said Obama had actually increased enforcement of the embargo since taking over from President George W. Bush.

NASSAU, Bahamas – A boater who disappeared off Jaws Beach – on an island where one of the “Jaws” movies was filmed – is likely the person whose remains were found in the belly of a shark, police say.

Authorities used fingerprints to identify Judson Newton, 43, although they are still waiting for DNA test results, Assistant Police Commissioner Hulan Hanna said late Tuesday.

More House Democrats call for tax cuts for all

Blown-out Gulf well to be sealed

by Sunday KENNER, La. (AP) – The U.S. government’s point man on the Gulf of Mexico oil spill said Wednesday that BP’s blown-out well is expected to be permanently sealed and declared dead

by Sunday, nearly five months after a rig explosion set off the disaster.

National Incident Commander Thad Allen told reporters gathered at a seafood distributor in Kenner, La., that a relief well is expected to intersect with the blown-out well within 24 hours. He said mud and cement will then be pumped in, which is expected to seal the blown-out well within four days. “We are within a 96hour window of killing the well,� Allen said.

The April 20 explosion killed 11 workers and led to 206 million gallons of oil spewing from the undersea well.

No fresh oil has spewed into the Gulf since a temporary cap was successfully fitted to the top of the well in mid-July.

Jackson’s mother sues concert promoter LOS ANGELES (AP) – Michael Jackson’s mother has sued the promoter of what were intended to be the pop star’s comeback concerts for fraud and other claims related to the singer’s death.

The complaint filed in Los Angeles on Wednesday accused AEG Live of failing to honor its agreement to provide the doctor charged in the singer’s death with lifesaving equipment.

The suit says AEG Live is liable for the actions of Dr. Conrad Murray, who has pleaded not guilty to involuntary manslaughter in Jackson’s death.

Katherine Jackson, who is the guardian of the singer’s three children, also sued on their behalf.

AEG spokesman Michael Roth says the company has not seen the lawsuit and had no immediate comment.

Katherine Jackson filed her lawsuit in Los Angeles Superior Court and is seeking unspecified damages.

“Doesn’t it make sense for us to move forward with the tax cuts that we all agree on?� Obama added. “We should be able to extend, right now, middleclass tax relief on the first $250,000 of income.�

Nervous Democrats are among those with concerns about the president’s plan. “We should not be raising taxes in the middle of a recession,� Rep. Jim Marshall, D-Ga., who’s facing tough odds in his bid for a fourth term, wrote in a terse letter to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

“It is essential that we keep things as they are in the short term,� said Rep. Travis W. Childers, D-Miss., another conservative incumbent in a tight race, whose district, like Marshall’s, voted for Republican John McCain in the 2008 presidential race.

For this pair, one press release announcing their opposition to Obama’s plan was not enough.

They were two of 31 jittery Democrats who signed a letter urging Pelosi, D-Calif., and Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, D-Md., to

abandon the Obama plan and extend to everyone the Bush-era tax cuts due to expire at the end of the year, according to one of its authors, Rep. Jim Matheson, D-Utah.

DOT seeks tougher pipeline oversight WASHINGTON (AP) – The Obama administration called for tighter federal oversight of oil and gas pipelines Wednesday in the wake of a deadly California gas explosion that raised alarms about the safety of the nation’s aging infrastructure.

In the meantime, the head of the National Transportation Safety Board said the federal agency responsible for the regulation is too accepting of assurances from industry that its equipment and practices are safe.

Deborah Hersman’s comments echoed what safety advocates have long called for – a pipeline agency that needs to be less cozy with industry and staffed with more inspectors to enforce stricter regulations.

City administration knows how to spend money The ability of High Point’s administration to spend money never ceases to amaze.

According to required financial statements filed with the N.C. Treasurer’s Office [http://www. nctreasurer.com/lgc/units/ D_180.htm], during the latest year listed, which was 2009, High Point spent $9,301,838 more than it received in revenue.

While acknowledging that the city has different budget pots of money, and that there is a sizable potential amount in the water and sewer bond pot which could be spent if more bond debt is incurred, it still is questionable to spend an undetermined amount of taxpayer’s money on tree removal and confiscation of three sand removal sites on Rich Fork Creek deep in Davidson County. Four miles of stream and 80 landowners are involved.

The idea is to improve the level of dissolved oxygen in the water between N.C. 109 and Midway School Road.

In the past, one of the causes for the creek to be declared impaired was the low level of dissolved oxygen. However, the N.C. Division of Water Quality’s latest study no longer lists that to be a reason for impairment. There are fish in the part of the stream under question. The problem already has been resolved.

The city spent $75,000 on the study that recommended the course of action now being pursued with regards to Rich Fork Creek and then spent $8,500 for the study’s authors to present two PowerPoint presentations of findings. One presentation recently left the Davidson County Board of Commissioners appearing to be less than convinced.

Vote Clapp for Guilford County school board at large As Nov. 2 Election Day approaches, we would like to encourage voters to give careful consideration to whom they elect for Guilford County school board at large. Our future depends on the education of our youth. No child can learn until he or she

has a safe learning environment, academic achievement is a top priority and the school board is accountable for the money it spends and how it chooses to spend it.

Lisa Ingle Clapp is focused on safety and discipline in our schools, high academic achievement and spending money where it will make the biggest impact on the success of our students.

Clapp is a devoted working mother of two school-age children. She is involved in the community through volunteer work, coaching and church activities.

She is dedicated to putting an end to violence in our schools, poor academic achievement and wasteful spending.

Our students and teachers deserve this kind of support and dedication from the school board.

On Nov. 2, vote Lisa Ingle Clapp for Guilford County school board at large.

Yes, it would have caused trouble if the Quran had been burned.

Why? Because of the change people fell for is playing itself out.

I tried to warn people that when the Muslims rejoiced as Obama was voted in, that this religious practice would grow. It has a leader now and a sneaky one at that. Those who chose to use common sense saw through this man as I did.

He uses his authority to offset anything that doesn’t fit in his plans. He couldn’t sway the governor of Arizona, so he went another route. Now the drug wars are here from Mexico. He has bought himself out of so much, there is nothing left to buy with.

As we grow older, we may not grow wiser, but we sure learn from experience.

The November election will be the beginning of taking back our country as our ancestors built it.

It’s going from a superpower to a shambles. It will crumble just as sure as the twin towers did at the rate we are going.

Vote!

What do Michael Moore, Newt Make the Gingrich have in common? recycling plan bigger winner A

B

ack in June 2009, our headline on an editorial about the then-proposed city recycling plan said, “Recycling proposal is a winner.”

We liked the idea that the proposed plan would save the city a half million dollars a year. And we thought it was workable for the city to collect recyclables every two weeks instead of weekly because new, much larger recycling cans were being provided to replace the 18-gallon bins in use at the time.

Well, we still think the city’s recycling plan is a winner ... except the part about elimination of pickup service for apartment, townhome and condominium complexes.

Under the new automated recycling collection system installed last year, the city made no provisions for collecting recyclables at the 162 multi-resident complexes in the city. It wasn’t practical to service each apartment as single-family residences were serviced. The big trucks and mechanical arms that grab and dump the large plastic cans just can’t work in the close confines of an apartment complex.

So, for about the past year or so, residents of those complexes have been on their own to figure out how to recycle materials that can and should be recovered for reuse. We really couldn’t blame people in those circumstances if they decided recycling just wasn’t worth it because of the situation.

Since receiving complaints from residents in multi-family complexes, the city has begun contacting operators of those complexes to figure out how residents can be provided more convenient recyclables collection services.

That is only fair. Those folks pay monthly for recycling services, too. The city can make this recycling plan an even bigger winner.

s if things were not crazy enough already, here comes Michael Moore.

In a posting on his website and an interview Monday on CNN, the liberal filmmaker upped the emotional ante on the controversy over construction of a mosque and cultural center in lower Manhattan.

Don’t build it near ground zero, he argued.

Build it ON ground zero.

Moore framed his argument as a response to the furor the proposed mosque has ignited and what he calls the “bullying” of American Muslims. I think he is disingenuous. Not that I doubt his anger at the treatment Muslims have endured, but does anyone really believe Moore’s suggestion addresses, or is even meant to address, that treatment? Does anyone really believe persuasion is his goal?

No. As was the case with Newt Gingrich when he equated the erection of a mosque near ground zero with the placing of a Nazi sign near the Holocaust Museum in Washington, it seems obvious that furthering the discussion was not Moore’s aim. Provocation was. Indeed, can’t you just picture the smoke billowing from the ears of those who oppose the mosque when they heard what he had said?

Moore and Gingrich thus become liberal and conservative bookends, an illustration of the degree to which bomb throwers, people willing to say the simplistic, outrageous thing, because it is the simplistic, outrageous thing, have infiltrated American political discourse.

For the record, I agree with Moore about the shameful bullying of American Muslims. It is un-American and silly to boot, given that there is already a mosque in that neighborhood and has been for 40 years.

Also for the record, I DISAGREE with him about putting a mosque directly on ground zero. Whatever rises there should be nondenominational and should memorialize all those whose lives were vaporized in the Sept. 11 attacks.

Neither the agreement not the disagreement, however, is what occasions these words. Rather, I find myself drawn to a speech given on Monday by Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf, the would-be spiritual leader

of the proposed mosque.

Rauf, the Kuwait-born son of Egyptian parents who came to this country in 1965, placed his story in the context of the classic immigrant tale.

“I’m a devout Muslim,” he said in his measured voice. “I OPINION pray five times a day, sometimes more, if I can, and I obLeonard serve the rituals required by Pitts my faith. And I’m also a proud ■■■ American citizen. Let no one forget that. I vote in elections.

I pay taxes. I pledge allegiance to the flag.

And I’m a Giants fan.”

For all the effort that has gone into framing the War on Terror as a clash of cultures, as Christian us versus Muslim them, said Rauf, “the real battle that we must wage together today, is not between Muslims and non-Muslims. It is between moderates of all the faith traditions against the extremists of all the faith traditions. We must not let the extremists, whatever their faith, whatever their political persuasion, hijack the discourse ...”

But that’s already happened, hasn’t it?

On radio, on television, online, thoughtful people, idealistic people, are routinely drowned out by the sounds of explosions – verbal bombs tossed haphazardly into the marketplace of ideas. For those who do this and those who admire them, this is straight talk, unfiltered and bracingly free of moderation or caveat. Words as weapons of war.

For the rest of us, it is disheartening. And it is proof Rauf was right when he spoke of the need for moderate people to band together in coalitions of reason. Otherwise, we cede the future to those who cannot see beyond us and them. And that is incompatible with the veneration of American ideals, the ongoing work of building a more perfect union.

After all, bombs don’t build.

Who will unite High Point’s competing districts?

F

Media fueled pastor’s threat N

ot since Joe the Plumber has one American been seemingly picked from obscurity because of something he has said or done. Most recently that distinction had fallen to Terry Jones – a Florida pastor who claimed he would host a Quran-burning last weekend in defiance of a New York plan to construct a Muslim cultural center/mosque near the site of ground zero.

We all know the story, but what’s disheartening about this is that, once again, the mainstream media has extrapolated the actions of one into “what’s next?� hysteria.

God-inspired or not, what Terry Jones was promising to do is simply un-American.

We don’t burn our own flags. We don’t like it when others do. And we sure don’t burn the symbols of other cultures and religions simply because we have that right. I respect the constitutional rights of any American ... every American for that matter. But there’s

casionally condemned for it. They threatened more terrorist attacks on American soil if the pastor had carried out his plans. Their doublestandards and treachery are as wide as the Atlantic Ocean.

After all, this is the same faith that went radioactive after a Dutch newspaper printed humorless cartoons a few years ago. I can only imagine what would have unfolded if Jones had gone ahead with his Quran burning.

I wish I could say there was some valuable lesson to be learned from all of this, but I doubt there is.

This episode strikes me as a case of how the enormous power of the media can drive an international incident to near-dangerous proportions. Either way, this shouldn’t be allowed to happen in America.

something inherently wrong with what Jones threatened to do.

Most of OPINION Americans are Armstrong frustrated Williams with the proposed mosque in New York City, but this “eye for an eye� threat was just that, and poorly conceived to begin with.

Once Defense Secretary Robert Gates phoned Jones, this half-baked idea started to unravel in the pastor’s head. I don’t know that to be the case, but I would lay good odds in Vegas that’s what happened.

Jones didn’t want to harm anyone. He merely wanted to send a message. What he was told would happen instead would be the potential loss of American lives overseas.

The Islamist/Muslim extremists and their sympathizers are pathetic hypocrites. They burn Bibles in their countries and are oc-

or those who didn’t get the memo, Uptowne is the new downtown, so stop trying to revitalize downtown High Point – it’s not going to happen. So says Tom Terrell, immediate past chairman of Core City High Point, now the City Project, in his Sept. 5, guest column in The High Point Enterprise, “We will not redevelop ‘downtown.’ �

Terrell should be credited for his boldness, forthrightness and willingness to take action. However, if revitalization efforts are to cease downtown, we may fairly ask, “What will replace downtown?�

Proponents such as Terrell envision an eight-block, bustling, pedestrian- friendly, shopping district called Uptowne from State Avenue to Ray Avenue along the N. Main Street corridor. Efforts are already under way with revised sign ordinances to allow Uptowne sidewalk business signage, increased state and local grant funding, efforts to lower Main Street’s speed limit to 25 mph and a proposal to construct a nicely landscaped roundabout at the center of Main and Lexington. Uptowne clearly has tremendous energy, great shops and represents the “low hanging fruit� of Main Street. In this column, I also have advocated a northward shift of focus in Uptowne’s direction.

There is one problem, however. If all our focus is to be on Uptowne, what are we to do with the other unrevitalized parts of our core city area, particularly along Main Street, north and south of Uptowne? According to Terrell, we should strive to create a place at the center of our city where “economic, cultural, educational and civic components thrive, each feeding and promoting the other.� Yet by Terrell’s own definition, Uptowne cannot fill the downtown mantle.

If you want to see a play, attend a concert, visit an arts and culture center, take advanced learning classes, catch a train or enjoy other amenities typically associated with a downtown, you have to go outside Uptowne to S. Main Street, the Market District or the “Downtown Mixed Use District,� also advocated in the Core City Plan.

The Core City Plan, the City Council and the City Project haven’t put for-

ward a coherent plan that incorporates the key elements of a downtown and unifies key players in a common effort along each section of Main Street, what the Core City Plan rightly calls “the OPINION backbone� of the core city area. Instead, the Elijah Core City Plan effectively Lovejoy Balkanizes, and there■■■fore weakens, High Point into competing districts.

There is no core to the core city.

In a Dec. 10, 2009, column headlined, “Dr. Sapp creates a ‘place to gather’ �

I put forward a plan that would unify High Point’s core city along a “Main Street Downtown Corridor� with distinct complimentary anchor-based sub-districts, one of which includes Uptowne.

This plan provides a framework for key players such as GTCC, High Point Theatre, Mendenhall Station, the High Point Chamber of Commerce, High Point Arts Council, High Point Regional Health System, the market district, High Point Library, The Depot and others to labor together on their distinct anchor-based sub-district. The plan honors the over-300-year history of Main Street, prior civic planning for a strong Main Street corridor and the millions of dollars spent to widen each section of Main Street. Last, the plan recognizes Main Street for the figurative river that it is (carrying a captive audience of 25,000 cars per day), with possible bays (i.e. side streets – think: State Street Shops in Greensboro), instead of seeing Main Street as an inconvenience and trying to put a figurative pond in the middle of it.

Uptowne is a very important subdistrict along High Point’s Main Street corridor, but its shoulders are not broad enough to fill the downtown mantle.

More will be accomplished if High Point’s core city area is united along a mutually complimentary “Main Street Downtown Corridor.� Who will unify High Point?

Wife in NY hotel killing seeks free lawyer

AP

Kelly Ayotte sits in a hotel room with her husband Joe Daley after learning she won the Republican nomination for U.S. Senate in Concord, N.H., Wednesday.

NH Senate primary winner says she’ll stress fiscal responsibility 1,600 votes. Lamontagne conceded the race Wednesday after a long night of vote-counting.

Ayotte had the backing of former vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin, while Lamontagne had the backing of local tea party activists.

She’ll face Democratic Rep.

Paul Hodes in the race to replace retiring Republican Sen. Judd Gregg.

Ayotte told supporters at her campaign headquarters that she wants “to finish what Sen. Gregg has started” by advocating lower spending and personal responsibility.

CA sues leaders of troubled city

AP

California Attorney General Jerry Brown announces lawsuits being filed against officials of the city of Bell, at a news conference in Los Angeles Wednesday.

LOS ANGELES (AP) – The California attorney general’s office sued eight current and former officials of the scandal-ridden city of Bell on Wednesday, accusing them of defrauding taxpayers by granting themselves salaries so high they were illegal and a disgrace to public service.

The suit demands the officials, including former City Manager Robert Rizzo, return hundreds of thousands of dollars they were paid to run the small, working-class city

where one in six people live in poverty.

It also demands the reduction of bloated pension benefits.

The salary scandal sparked nationwide outrage and calls for cities of all sizes to publicly disclose what employees are paid.

“You can’t just take the public’s money and give it to yourself or give it to your friendly employees or members of the city council just because you want to,” said Attorney General Jerry Brown, a candidate for governor.

A panel of Food and Drug Administration advisers voted 8-8 on whether to allow continued marketing of the drug by drugmaker Abbott Laboratories. Earlier this year, European regulators banned the drug after the safety issues were raised.

Novack was beaten to death at the Hilton in Rye Brook, N.Y., where his company had organized an Amway convention.

WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. (AP) – A Florida woman accused of having her husband killed to get at his millions said Wednesday that she can’t afford her Manhattan lawyer and wants the government to pay his fees.

The lawyer said he’s willing to work for publicly paid fees, which would be well below his normal rates, “because I care about my client and I want to see that justice is done.”

“I’m looking forward to trying this case,” said attorney Howard Tanner. “I think there are a lot of circumstances the government ... will have a hard time explaining.”

Tanner spoke after his client, Narcy Novack, 53, of Fort Lauderdale, told a federal judge she cannot afford to pay a lawyer because her assets have been seized by the government.

Arts Council provides for groups at same level as last year

BY VICKI KNOPFLER ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – High Point Area Arts Council will fund its five affiliate groups at the same level as last year, even though it raised less in its annual fund drive.

Board members voted Wednesday to distribute $78,400 for 2010-11.

The fund drive raised about $160,000 for 201011, compared to $167,885 for 2009-10 and $226,000

for 2008-09. Allocations dropped considerably between 2008-09 and 2009-10 because the North Carolina Shakespeare Festival ended its affiliate status last summer in a dispute over funding.

“There’s no secret that we’re in some pretty challenging economic times, and the Arts Council is obviously not immune from that,” said Tim Smyth, allocations chairman and a banker at High Point Bank & Trust. “We

tried to put the affiliates first here, and in this economic environment, maintaining funding is in some ways a victory.”

In addition to raising less in this year’s fund drive, the Arts Council received 33 percent less from Guilford County.

The Arts Council will compensate for reduced income by making cuts in its own budget, said both Smyth and Executive Director Debbie Lumpkins.

Two charged after neglected dogs found at former home

BY PAT KIMBROUGH ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – Two people face animal cruelty charges after neglected dogs were found at their former home.

High Point police animal control officers responded to 844 Willow Place on Sept. 2 after getting a call about two dogs that had been left in the backyard by the home’s previous occupants.

Officers found a black pit bull mix lying on its side “in near death condition,” police said.

High Point police animal control officers responded to 844 Willow Place after getting a call about two dogs that had been left in the backyard by the home’s previous occupants.

The dog was not chained or tethered, but the other animal in the yard was.

The second dog, a black and brown pit bull mix, was tethered to a stake in the ground, police said. It also showed signs of prolonged neglect but was able to move around. Both animals were taken to the Guilford County Animal Shelter.

The black pit bull mix was given medical treatment and has survived, police said. The second dog was in such poor condition that it had to be put down.

Investigators identified two suspects in the case – Wilbert Morrison Jr. and Nellie A. Brock, both 55 – and charged them with two counts each of misdemeanor animal cruelty, according to police. Morrison is the owner of the residence and Brock is a former tenant and the owner of the dogs, police said.

Both suspects turned themselves in Tuesday and were released on written promises to appear for Oct. 29 court dates.

The case is the latest of several suspected animal abuse incidents to get attention. A new law inspired by a Greensboro case in which a dog was beaten and burned that will take effect in December will increase penalties for some types of cruelty cases, giving judges more discretion to impose jail time against offenders.

The issue of tethering dogs also has been in the public eye, with animal-rights activists lobbying local governments, including the City Council, for an ordinance that would limit the amount of time an animal could be tied up on the grounds that excessive tethering can breed aggressive behavior. To date, the council has not taken action to develop any drafts of new ordinances that would address this issue. pkimbrough@hpe.com | 888-3531

between money raised in the fund drive and money allocated goes into the Arts Council’s budget, which includes its own operations and programs.

High Point Community Theatre in April eliminated its sole paid position, citing financial difficulties. Leaders later confirmed the group is in debt.

“Community Theatre received exactly what they requested this year,”

Smyth said. “I think they were frankly being realistic about the fund drive and the economy in general, and we applaud them for being realistic and understanding this wasn’t the year to make a request for a larger number.”

No restrictions were placed on how Community Theatre may use its $36,000 allocation, Lumpkins said. vknopfler@hpe.com | 888-3601

“When we looked at events we could do, it came down to this one that could attract a lot of people.”

Key said as many as 300 riders could complete the circuit from High Point to Albemarle. Riders can join the ride at any of the cities, Key said.

“Some of these cities don’t have a lot of resources to help the hungry and the homeless, and this helps them too,” Key said.

The programs serve the community in assisting those who are homeless, hungry, and in need of assistance with food in their homes.

They help with electricity bills, rental and housing assistance, provide shelter for the homeless, treatment for those suffering from addiction, and provide housing for those who have mental illness.

Proceeds will be used to support Father’s Table, Food Pantry, Housing First Program, Emergency Assistance, Housing Stabilization Program, Arthur Cassell Transitional Housing and the Men’s Emergency Shelter.

“We’d like to see an event like this continue for this partnership,” Key said.

AG Cooper: Keep closer tabs on drug abusers MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

CHARLOTTE â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Attorney General Roy Cooper supports expanding access to state computer records identifying people with prescriptions for certain drugs.

During a Wednesday afternoon speech in Charlotte, Cooper called prescription-drug abuse the biggest drug threat today.

He made his remarks at a meeting with law enforcement leaders from North Carolina and 25 other states to discuss better ways to fight illegal drugs.

He said more young people are abusing prescription medications than any other drug except marijuana.

Deaths in North Carolina associated with prescrip-

tion-drug abuse rose from 798 in 2008 to 826 in 2009, he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That tells us we have a problem and we need to deal with it,â&#x20AC;? he said.

The possibility of granting more access to the prescription drug records has generated some recent controversy over privacy.

The state sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s association called for access to the electronic records earlier this month at a legislative health care committee meeting.

Groups such as the ACLU and the American Pain Foundation said law enforcement shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be poking around peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s medicine cabinets.

The ACLU opposed a bill in 2007 that would have opened the list to law enforcement officials. The

organization would likely object to the new proposal, officials said.

Cooper said 20 state bureau of investigation agents currently have access to prescription-drug records.

He said he could support opening the system to more law enforcement officials, such as designated sheriff deputies or police. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Obviously there needs to be balance with privacy.

This is very private information about peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s prescription drugs,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;On the other hand, we know the deaths that these drugs can cause and the abuse of them. And being able to have a system in place that can show us who is abusing prescription drugs and who is getting them illegally can be helpful.â&#x20AC;?

Mother-in-law with keys makes herself at home

D

ear Abby My husband, son and I live next door to my in-laws. My motherin-law, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hazel,â&#x20AC;? has a set of keys to our house for emergency purposes. For some time she has been using the key to come and go as she pleases, â&#x20AC;&#x153;borrowingâ&#x20AC;? food, dishes and toiletries when weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not home. When we discover the items missing, she usually confesses.

I am really irritated about it and have frequent fights with my husband over this and other privacy issues. How can I talk to Hazel in a way that wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t hurt her feelings? She is very sensitive, and I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know how to confront her since my husband refuses to do so. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Missing My Privacy in San Jose, Calif.

Dear Missing: Try this: Take your motherin-law to lunch and over a nice, leisurely meal say (SLOWLY AND QUIETLY), â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hazel, honey, I have a problem I need your help with.

(Breathe.) When you come into the house and take things without asking, it makes me feel violated. (Pause.) Do you think you could please refrain from doing that anymore? (Smile.) Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d really appreciate it.â&#x20AC;?

And if any more items turn up missing, quietly change the locks.

Dear Abby I am being married soon and my fa-

ther will be providing the alcohol for our reception.

We plan to serve beer, wine and ADVICE champagne for Dear the toast.

Abby Because â&#x2013; â&#x2013; â&#x2013; I will be wearing an ivory gown, I am opting to drink only champagne. I have a favorite brand, but because of our modest budget, Dad cannot provide it for everyone to drink.

I was going to buy a couple of bottles to have at our table for my wedding party, but Dad feels it would be in poor taste and thinks our guests may feel slighted in some way. My feeling is that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s our special day and people will understand.

Am I wrong for wanting a nicer champagne than we can provide for our guests? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Bubbly Bride in Pismo Beach, Calif.

Dear Bubbly: Let me put it this way â&#x20AC;&#x201C; if there is a chance that your guests would feel slighted if you get caught, then drink what theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re drinking at the reception. Afterward, have a bottle of your preferred brand waiting in an ice bucket by your â&#x20AC;&#x153;wedding bedâ&#x20AC;? so you can enjoy a special toast with your new husband.

Bedbug problem closes Catawba College dorms MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

SALISBURY â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Officials at Catawba College in Salisbury closed more than half their dormitory buildings Wednesday so exterminators could deal with a growing problem of bedbugs.

Students living in Abernethy Village, on the west end of the schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s campus, were told to

leave their dormitory rooms and take all their clothing and bedding to be washed. About 120 of the schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 1,000 students were affected.

Meanwhile, officials at Wake Forest University in Winston-Salem announced steppedup efforts to deal with bedbugs, which are becoming a major problems across the United States.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are trying to be proactive,â&#x20AC;? said Tonia Black-Gold, spokeswoman for Catawba College. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We initially had four complaints, but the number has grown this week.â&#x20AC;?

In recent weeks, the bedbug problem has become a national story, as a pest that once was eradicated nearly to the point of extinction has made a comeback.

Feds turn attention to NC mental health agency CHARLOTTE (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Problems revealed by a federal review of a western North Carolina mental health provider could result in 500 mentally ill clients being left in the lurch.

The Charlotte Observer reports that Mecklenburg County officials plan to end all contracts with the nonprofit provider Mecklenburg Open Door by Nov. 30.

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development says the group failed to keep adequate documentation of its work. The federal agency also faulted the county for failing to hold the group accountable.

grew up attending schools operated by Jesuits, an order of Catholic priests known as the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Marinesâ&#x20AC;? of the church.

They were the missionaries who went all over the world with the gospel and faced unspeakable hardships for the faith. They also became known as extremely strict and demanding scholars, who, over the years, have GIVING 101 become famous for their Paul academic Lessard rigor and â&#x2013; â&#x2013; â&#x2013; discipline.

My father, being the wise officer and gentleman that he always was, placed me in Jesuit schools when he went overseas because he knew they would keep me in line. My enduring memory of these years is their commitment to building the complete man in body, mind and spirit.

Like so many of our effective moral conventions, this holistic approach to education has waned as political correctness has overtaken the academic world.

One bold exception is an innovative educational approach that has been embraced at High Point University.

As in all universities, the body and mind are being well taken care of. What is unique is the requirement that every student must now serve a stipulated amount of community service hours to graduate.

In short, they are being taught to think beyond themselves and become involved in a philanthropic journey that is indeed the most important education of all.

High Point University students are everywhere these days, whether itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the baseball team working with Miracle Field, fraternities and sororities doing service projects in the inner city or the soccer and basketball teams doing free clinics. This is what a true, real world educational experience should be about. I salute the university leadership for recognizing that leaders must first be servants figuratively and, yes, literally.

These young men and women reaching into our community will one day be running companies, and the philanthropic mindset they learned at HPU will color every decision they make.

Imagine a world in which corporate leadership sought first to serve, not just their shareholders, but the community at large.

It might just change the world.

Kidney stones, weak bones: challenging combination

D

ear Dr. Donohue: After a consultation with my doctor for the results of my removed kidney stone and 24-hour urine collection, I was told my calcium is high. Currently I take calcium citrate, vitamin D and Fosamax because of my past bone-density testing. My doctor, as a result of the new tests, has me on a low-sodium, low-calcium diet. He hasn’t consulted my primary physician.

How does the decrease in calcium affect my bone density? – S.G.

BLONDIE

B.C.

Your question is similar to one I answered last week. One difference is the 24-hour urine test you had. Often, blood calcium is measured at the same time. If both your blood and urine calcium are high, you have a problem that the previous writer did not have. A search has to be made for the cause of your high blood calcium.

In such a case, limiting dietary calcium is helpful only if you were eating a diet very high in calcium. A high blood calcium raises questions of an excess of parathyroid hormone, an overactive thyroid gland, an excess of vitamin D, medicines like thiazide water pills and an illness called sarcoidosis.

If only your urine was high in calcium, a lowcalcium diet doesn’t usually help. That sounds paradoxical, but it isn’t.

A low calcium intake in such a case actually promotes kidney stone forHEALTH mation.

The low Dr. Paul calcium inDonohue take could ■■■ worsen your bone density – the basis of osteoporosis. Each of your doctors – the kidney stone doctor and the one who is treating you for osteoporosis (Fosamax is an osteoporosis medicine) – must know what the other is doing.

Stones can be prevented by drinking lots of fluid.

You should drink enough so that your urine is pale yellow or colorless. The low-sodium diet is a good idea. Sodium increases the urine concentration of calcium and favors stone formation.

Dry eyes do cause eye watering. Every case of watering eyes, however, isn’t due to dry eyes.

Even if it is, an eye doctor has to be consulted to determine what’s causing the dryness.

I’m happy that your wife found an answer for her problem. Systane eyedrops are an eye lubricant. They aren’t the answer to every case of dry eyes.

Dear Dr. Donohue: I am responding to the item you wrote about dry eyes causing excessive tears.

My wife suffered for a couple of years with such watery eyes that it made her life miserable. She underwent a number of tests and tried a number of remedies, but her watery eyes failed to clear up.

The cure appeared in the form of Systane, which, as you know, is sold over the counter. As soon as she started taking Systane, her watery-eye problem resolved. – S.R.

I agree with you, Doctor. Guidelines for holding swim meets advise cancelling the meet if the water temperature is below 57 F (14 C). I wouldn’t think of putting my big toe in water that cold.

Dear Dr. Donohue: I feel that the information about swimming in cold water could be misleading. Having boated in Northwest waters for many years, I am aware that the temperature in Canadian waters is frequently in the 50 degree range. If a person swims in water of this temperature and is unable to get out because of being too far from shore, drowning is a grave danger. – D.T., MD

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

WASHINGTON (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Michaele Salahi, who gained notoriety with her husband by crashing a glitzy White House state dinner, says in a new book that she suffers from multiple sclerosis, a potentially debilitating disease that she says she has kept secret for years.

Salahi says a bad spell the night

Magic of ‘The Tempest’ blossoms with larger budget

VOGUE COVER

----

BY VICKI KNOPFLER ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

H

IGH POINT – Certainly William Shakespeare’s “The Tempest” is a tale worth the telling in nearly any form, whether simple or lavish.

An influx of money specifically for the production that opens Saturday allows the North Carolina Shakespeare Festival luxuries that director Steve Umberger believes will convey the classic tale vividly and to the delight of audiences.

High Pointer Jim Millis and his wife, Debbie, gave the Shakespeare Festival $250,000.

The money is being used for a larger production staff and enhanced costumes, sets, sound and lighting; to hire a cast with a larger than usual percentage of professional Equity union actors; to cast a seasoned actor, Jack Wetherall, in the lead role of Prospero; and to market the play and the festival more heavily and widely.

“The Tempest” was selected – before the donation – for the third single-play main season because, as the last of Shakespeare’s plays, it is thought to be his most mature and fully realized and as such, can stand alone. It explores creativity and leadership, issues still relevant.

“The Tempest” takes place on a magical island and in a spirit world where many of the characters are not human. Productions

Actors in Shakespeare Festival’s production of “The Tempest” include (from left) Warren Jackson as Ariel, Jack Wetherall as Prospero and Nikki Coble as Miranda. often are bare-bones because portraying such a world is too tricky to figure out and too expensive to carry out, Umberger said. Those simply staged pieces often are effective, but ...

“We’ll be able to do it with more options, and it will translate to people as bigger and better,” he said. “The goal is to re-create the world of the island.

Prospero has accessed the highest power of the island, and you want to access that for the audience. It’s great to experiment and refine all those elements.”

Umberger will use projections – something he’s long wanted to try – to depict many of the fantasy elements. Lavish costumes and lighting will add to the illusions, and the set will be on two levels and with a turntable.

Umberger predicts that the most visually stunning scene will involve a harpy and 32-foot metal wings, but he won’t reveal details of what’s behind the fantasy.

“The option to create magic on stage is wonderful,” Umberger said.

Choreographer Ron Chisholm had the luxury of three to four extra weeks of rehearsal with the actors portraying the spirit

ensemble, and costumes and set design supplement their magic.

“I’m able to portray the movements of spirits to make them independent of humans,” Chisholm said. “I keep harping on them that they are different from human beings. I keep telling them they’re the visualized energy of the island.

“It’s a creative process that takes it out of the element I normally have to deal with. You get to dream it.”

IGH POINT – This year, as for the past two years, only one play will be presented during the North Carolina Shakespeare Festival’s main season.

“A Christmas Carol” will be performed at the holidays.

The donation of money from Jim and Debbie Millis was earmarked specifically for “The

Tempest” and will not affect either the number of plays in the season or the number of performances, said Pedro Silva, managing director.

“The Tempest” will be performed 10 times for traditional shows and eight times for SchoolFest morning performances for students. The same number of performances was offered last year.

“The strategy this year is to do all we can to grow audiences

in the schedule we have,” Silva said. “I would love to see that change. We won’t add performances for any other reason than attendance.”

The Shakespeare Festival also recently changed its informal name from “NCSF” to “NCShakes.” The professional theater company’s website has been www.ncshakes.org since it was developed. vknopfler@hpe.com / 888-3601

AMESTOWN – Day in the Park will be held for the 40th time Saturday with family events much in keeping with past festivals.

The traditional Day in the Park activities that will return this year include: arts activities in the Children’s Adventure Island area led by Theatre Art Galleries and the YWCA; rides on the train and carousel at City Lake Park; miniature golf, inflatable games and a rock climbing wall;

entertainment on two stages; artists and crafters displaying and selling their works at Marketplace Bazaar; and festival food such as funnel cakes, roasted corn, Polish sausages, pizza, kettle corn and burgers.

The day will begin with a bagpiper performing throughout the park, and local groups will stage historical re-enactments and demonstrate folk life skills.

Community groups and nonprofits will provide information on services they provide.

NEW YORK (AP) – Yeah, she’s got an Oscar, but Halle Berry says that being on the cover of the allimportant September issue of a fashion magazine is another big honor.

Berry is on the cover of this month’s Vogue, and she turned out Friday night at Fashion’s Night Out at the Ralph Lauren store on Madison Avenue to sign copies for fans. She also posed for photographers with David Lauren and Vogue Editor-in-Chief Anna Wintour, the architect of this now-national shopping event.

“I know how important the night is for fashion, our industry and the economy, and there’s so much going to charity,” Berry said. “It’s a win-win-win.”

The NYC AIDS Fund has been tapped as a beneficiary of Fashion’s Night Out. On this night, Berry wore a black jacket and beaded, sheer top by Lauren – skinny black pants were by Rag & Bone. She also wore a Lauren gown at her cover shoot.

“I don’t get to pick anything (for photo shoots). I think Anna does,” she said. “I tried on lots of different things, and if you’re not comfortable, you can’t present your best self, so everyone made sure I was comfortable in what I was wearing.”

She did have the benefit of seeing the issue early, several days before it hit stands – and she was happy with it.

Her fans must have been happy, too: Scores of them lined up for her autograph.

Wintour’s advice to Berry was to use a Sharpie marker. “It’s the only thing that works,” said Wintour.

SUCCEEDS I can appreciate a careful analyst, but it’s better to analyze before you play. South got derailed when she took the queen of trumps; she should start the trumps with the ace.

Even when East discards, South will succeed since she can ruff two spades with the Q-J of trumps and still pick up West’s 10-6-2. South would also be safe if East had three trumps – unless East’s hand were also extremely distributional, which was unlikely.

CROSSWORD

Thursday, Sept. 16, 2010 CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Nick Jonas, 18; Alexis Bledel, 29; Amy Poehler, 39; Marc Anthony, 42 HAPPY BIRTHDAY: Your ability to delegate will come into play and aid you as you work toward balance in your life this year. Discuss, formulate and plan effectively and efficiently and you will control the situations you encounter and be the engine behind any advancements made.

Your numbers are 6, 14, 18, 28, 32, 36, 40 ARIES (March 21-April 19): Your willingness to work behind the scenes taking care of details will pay off. You will excel and impress someone who can help you get ahead at a later date. Initiate a positive mindset and make some overdue changes. ★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Nothing will stand in your way as long as you do not mix business with pleasure. Keep a friendly distance from your colleagues and you will be able to pursue your dreams, hopes and wishes. Travel, meetings and conventions will all lead to your success. ★★★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Don’t initiate change but be willing to accept the inevitable.

Compromise will be necessary and, if given without hesitation, will bring about unexpected perks.

By allowing others freedom, you will set the stage for the same set of rules in return. ★★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): Love is on the rise and getting involved in activities that enhance your current relationship or promote meeting someone (if you are single), should be attended.

Don’t let someone force you to take on responsibilities that don’t belong to you. ★★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Time spent on professional or educational gains will be advantageous.

Taking charge of a group or project that interests you will allow you to show your leadership ability. Be careful not to neglect your personal responsibilities. ★★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Collect old debts and avoid lending, borrowing or getting involved in joint ventures. Trust in your own ability and focus on what you do best. Love is on the rise, so get out with friends, neighbors or relatives and socialize. ★★★★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Problems will escalate if you are stubborn or you procrastinate.

Change is apparent whether you want it or not, so you might as well contribute your thoughts, ideas and plans. Avoid getting involved with someone from your past. ★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Stop talking about your plans and start to put them into action. You have so much to gain if you take the initiative.

Don’t be afraid of failure. The chance to make a difference is within reach. Use your knowledge, wisdom and experience. ★★★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You may feel the urge to make changes before you have everything in place. Back up and watch to see what everyone else does first. If you move too quickly, you will end up paying for something you didn’t want. There is no room for a mistake. ★★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): There is interest gathering with options and profits to be made.

Your clear-cut and precise presentation, along with your belief in your ability, will be all it will take to reach a long-time goal. A celebratory outing should be planned with someone you love. ★★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Don’t believe what’s being said or offered. You have to look past the obvious in order to see what is required of you and how you can control the situation so that you aren’t left in a vulnerable position. ★★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Your creative ability is on the rise and your intuition will not lead you astray. Put a plan for your future in motion. Once you make your intentions clear, you will get a favorable response. ★★★★

BRIDGE

A reader writes that her partner is a thoughtful player, but her train of thought doesn’t seem to have a caboose.

“She went down at this slam,” my fan says, “and after she spent 15 minutes analyzing, she concluded she’d been unlucky.”

South won the first diamond with the king and took the queen of clubs, expecting to claim if trumps broke 2-1. When instead East showed out.

South led the ace and a low spade, and West took the king and led a second diamond. Declarer won and ruffed a spade, but West overruffed with the ten for down one.

HOROSCOPE

DAILY QUESTION You hold: S A 5 H A 8 4 D K 8 6 5 C Q J 9 8. Your partner opens one heart, and the next player passes. What do you say?

ANSWER: A bid of 2NT was once correct, but now players use “limit” double raises and treat a 2NT response as an artificial forcing raise. Although you have heart support, any forcing raise would promise four-card support. Temporize with a response of two clubs.

If partner rebids two hearts, you’ll raise to four hearts.

South dealer Neither side vulnerable

ONE STAR: It’s best to avoid conflicts; work behind the scenes or read a good book. Two stars: You can accomplish but don’t rely on others for help. Three stars: If you focus, you will reach your goals. Four stars: You can pretty much do as you please, a good time to start new projects. Five stars: Nothing can stop you now. Go for the gold.

DVD is time capsule for Beatles’ fans DAVID BAUDER AP TELEVISION WRITER

N

EW YORK – A new DVD about the Beatles’ initial appearances on “The Ed Sullivan Show” is like cracking open a time capsule.

Almost as interesting as the band making its musical introduction to America in 1964 is the context in which it is placed. The DVD presents the programs exactly as they appeared that night – complete with hapless magicians or comedians, commercials that would shame “Mad Men” and illustrations of how the pace of television has changed.

The first night, Feb. 9, 1964, is a landmark in television. An estimated 73 million Americans tuned in, the largest ever for a TV show at the time, or three times the amount of people who watched the latest “American Idol” finale, according to the Nielsen Co. A generation of musicians can trace

their career choices to that night. One was Dennis DeYoung, former Styx lead singer, who told the Montreal Gazette that he watched it while at a high school dance.

“I looked at that and I went, ‘Oh, my God! What is that? And how do I apply for that job?’ ” he recalled. “That was it. There was never any doubt in my mind what I wanted in my life.”

Film clips of the Beatles on Sullivan have been available, but never the whole event until the recent release of “The 4 Complete Ed Sullivan Shows Starring the Beatles.” SOFA Entertainment, which owns the archive of Sullivan shows (a staple on CBS’ Sunday night schedule from 1948 to 1971), is putting it out after getting the OK from the Beatles’ Apple Corps Ltd. Sullivan, the competitive old newspaper columnist, clearly knew the high stakes involved that night and gave the Beatles two showcases on the first show.

HiToms name Steele as new coach

BY GRRER SMITH ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER

THOMASVILLE -- Before this year’s Coastal Plain League began, Jeff Steele knew that his sixth season as head coach would be his last.

“I felt I needed a new experience, new surroundings,” Steele said.

The new experience for Steele, an assistant coach at NAIA power Lubbock Christian Univeristy in Texas, will be as head coach of the HiToms next season. He replaces Tom Dorzweiler, who was not retained after a 17-37 season two years removed

from the last of the team’s three straight CPL championships.

Steele’s Steele resume easily contains one key component that HiToms owner Greg Suire wanted, experience as a head coach in the CPL or another collegiate wooden bat league.

He went 186-146 in Wilson, qualified for the CPL playoffs each year and made it to the CPL championship round three times.

“The only thing he

didn’t do was win a CPL championship,” HiToms president Greg Suire said.

“The record that he was able to manufacture with the talent he had certainly made him intriguing.

Wilson has a high-profile program that is similar to the HiToms. The only difference is they have not won a championship.”

The HiToms were not the only team that Steele considered.

“I looked at some teams in a couple of other leagues as well as the CPL,” Steele said. “I visited with Greg. We talked about the direction he wanted to go and what he

wanted to accomplish and I thought it was a good fit for me.

“Obviously, their past success was intriguing.

I did my homework and looked at them over the past 5-6 years and the caliber of players that have brought in and what they have done. I’ve enjoyed playing there and they have a great atmosphere at Finch Field. One thing their favor is that they are in the West division, and I didn’t want to go into the North or South divisions after playing in them with Wilson.”

In four seasons as the pitching coach at Lub-

bock Christian, Steele has been a key figure in the Chaparrals rise to national prominence, which included winning the 2009 NAIA World Series. He helped guide the Chaps pitching staff to a 3.90 earned run average and an average of 8.3 strikeouts per game.

“The chemistry here just didn’t click last season,” Suire said. “Judging from his pedigree over the past six seasons, I believe he will bring a new culture to our clubhouse and will help build a resurgent franchise.” gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3556

For the birds: Quayle looks to bounce back

BY SAN QUENTIN QUAYLE BACK TO BASICS

Talk about a crash course in humility.

After three solid weeks to open the season, yours truly hit the wall, missed the boat, dropped the ball and sunk into the moat with a dismal, abysmal PICKING 6-5 record.

That 54.5 winTHE ning percentage WINNERS doesn’t pass muster. Forget about San Quentin the Grey Poupon.

Quayle The ol’ bird took ■■■ a bath.

But tomorrow is another day, so I’ll take my licking and keep on picking.

Several great rivalries share

the spotlight this week, so let the winning begin!

Here are this week’s picks:

T.W. ANDREWS AT HP CENTRAL Red Raiders vs. Bison. It doesn’t get any bigger than this. Look for Simeon Stadium to become Victory Central after another classic. ... High Point Central 28, T.W. Andrews 26.

TRINITY AT ASHEBORO The Blue Comets cage the Bulldogs in Zoo City. ... Asheboro 29, Trinity 17.

HPCA AT FIRST ASSEMBLY The Cougars’ upset hopes nearly take flight in Concord. ... First Assembly 21, High Point Christian Academy 20.

Guilford 23, Western Guilford 21.

EAST DAVIDSON AT WHEATMORE

BISHOP AT SOUTH STOKES

The Golden Eagles can’t conquer these home Warriors. ...

Wheatmore 22, East Davidson 16.

Bad pun alert!!! The Villains “Saur-a” gonna win. Sorry...

Bishop McGuinness 28, South Stokes 16.

DAVIE COUNTY AT THOMASVILLE After four straight wins on the road, the Bulldogs prove there’s no place like home to go 5-0. ...

Thomasville 27, Davie County 20.

PERSON COUNTY AT RAGSDALE No need to file a missing Person’s report in the end zone. The Tigers keep that destination for themselves. ... Ragsdale 28, Person County 9.

W. GUILFORD AT S. GUILFORD WEST DAVIDSON AT LEDFORD The Panthers star as Green

The Hornets endure a frustrating Storm watch. ... Southern

GLENN AT REAGAN This one is too close to call, so I’ll use the old “1984 Presidential Campaign” test. John Glenn’s ‘84 campaign never got off the ground, while Ronald Reagan carried 49 states and was re-elected.

Make it. ... Reagan 24, Glenn 21.

L

ook for a spirited ACC/Big East confrontation when N.C. State battles Cincinnati tonight at Carter-Finley Stadium.

The game kicks off shortly after 7:30 p.m. and will be televised by ESPN. The Wolfpack may be playing the Bearcats at an opportune time.

Cincinnati is coming off back-to-back Big East Conference championships and BSC bowl appearances.

But this year, the Bearcats feature a new head coach (Butch Jones replaced Brian Kelly, who took the Notre Dame job) as well as five new starters on offense and six on defense.

Under Kelly, Cincy posted a 34-6 record and made BCS appearances in the Orange Bowl and Sugar Bowl his final two seasons.

Under Jones, the Bearcats opened with a 28-14 loss at Fresno State and followed with a 40-7 romp past Indiana State.

Last year’s Bearcats showcased the recordsetting duo of quarterback Tony Pike, currently a member of the Carolina Panthers, and receiver Marty Gilyard, also in the NFL now.

Junior Zach Collaros saw action in four games at quarterback last season in place of the injured Pike, but the Bearcats have several inexperienced players manning key

roles on both sides of the ball.

State, 2-0 after victories over Western Carolina and Central Florida, counters with veteran quarterback Russell Wilson leading a potent attack. Despite forcing five turnovers in the win over Central Florida, questions remain with the Wolfpack defense. A solid effort against the Bearcats could help ease some of those concerns.

We’ll learn much about both programs after tonight’s game.

And that’s just what an early-season nonconference showdown should do.

YOUR COMMUNITY. YOUR NEWSPAPER.

WHO’S NEWS

---

North Carolina has hired former Buffalo Bills assistant Charlie Coiner to replace John Blake, the Tar Heels’ associate head coach who resigned amid an ongoing NCAA investigation.

Coach Butch Davis said Wednesday that Coiner will work with the defensive line and special teams, though fellow assistant Art Kaufman and defensive coordinator will continue to work with the ends and tackles until Coiner settles in fully.

Davis says Coiner started work Tuesday as the Tar Heels prepare for Georgia Tech in this weekend’s home opener.

Blake resigned Sept. 5, saying his presence had become a distraction. The NCAA probe into agent-related benefits and possible academic misconduct had also reviewed Blake’s longtime friendship with California-based agent Gary Wichard.

Coiner coached the tight ends in Buffalo and assisted on special teams. He joined the Bills after spending 200105 as a member of the Chicago Bears coaching staff.

MOTORSPORTS, FOOTBALL 4D www.hpe.com THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 16, 2010 THE HIGH POINT ENTERPRISE

Busch, Hamlin gloss over differences NEW YORK (AP) — The first sign of a lingering discord between Denny Hamlin and Kyle Busch came after their 1-2 finish at Richmond, when Busch made sure to point out how clean he raced his teammate with the win on the line.

A second verbal volley was lobbed during an episode of Busch’s ESPN weeklong reality special, when he made mention of how difficult it is to have a discussion with Hamlin. Fans for sure noticed the back-to-back jabs, and speculation mounted that Joe Gibbs Racing’s two championship contenders were at odds.

Turns out, it’s much ado about nothing.

“I was just making a point,” Busch said Wednesday during NASCAR’s annual visit to New York to promote the upcoming Chase for the Sprint Cup championship.

“There was an opportunity for me to get in there and get dirty, knock him out of the way, but I thought better of it. We all want momentum going into the Chase, not another something to be fighting about.”

The relationship between the two JGR stars will be critical to manage over the next 10 weeks.

The teams rely on each other for information and advice during at-track debriefs, and Busch’s crew gleaned an important tip from Hamlin’s crew right before Saturday night’s race at Richmond that contributed to the 1-2 finish.

Managing and maintaining that information

AP

The 12 drivers who qualified for NASCAR’s playoff chase pose for a photo after the Air Guard 400 that ended the regular season Saturday at Richmond International Raceway. Drivers left to right on top row are Denny Hamlin, Matt Kenseth, Carl Edwards, Greg Biffle, Kurt Busch, Tony Stewart, Kyle Busch, and Jeff Gordon; with Kevin Harvick, Jeff Burton, Jimmie Johnson, Clint Bowyer on the bottom row. flow will be the best shot either JGR driver has at dethroning four-time defending NASCAR champion Jimmie Johnson.

But there’s no denying the relationship has had its swings, most notably earlier this season after a wreck between the two in the All-Star race and Busch vented over his radio “I swear to God, I am going to kill (him).”

It led to an immediate post-race closed-door meeting with owner Joe Gibbs, and the issue seemed to be settled. Then Hamlin fanned the flames a week later in one of the more entertaining press conferences in years.

“Each year I think Kyle’s going to grow up and he just doesn’t,” Ham-

lin said that day. “Until he puts it all together, that’s when he’ll become a champion, and right now he just doesn’t have himself all together.”

Gibbs helicoptered into the track to be present for qualifying later that day, and the teammates have been fairly quiet off the track since.

During a visit Wednesday to The Associated Press headquarters, Hamlin said there’s no issues between the two.

“I think Kyle just has different ways of expressing the way he feels about things,” Hamlin said.

“We have personalities that can be difficult to get through to at times, and a lot of it is just you are afraid to go up to your

teammate or another driver and talk about (racing issues). Me and Kyle have never really had that talk, but I feel like except for the All-Star race, our on-track relationship has been good. Never been any altercations, never really raced each other that hard. And I think what he was doing was just trying to prove a point and show that he’s a clean teammate.”

Busch and Hamlin have been two of the best drivers all season.

Hamlin heads into the Chase opener Sunday at New Hampshire as the top-seed. Busch, a threetime winner this season, is 30 points behind Hamlin. Racing for the win Saturday night at Hamlin’s

home track, Busch could have moved his teammate in an effort to win the race and grab the final 10 bonus points.

But he stayed in line, settled for second, and talked about it after the race.

Would that change with the championship on the line?

“If it does, it’s going to be no-holds barred,” he said. “If it comes down to me having to win the race in order to win the championship or if he wins the race he wins the championship, it’s going to be whatever happens.”

In the same breath, though, Busch revealed a clear understanding of the big picture.

“If it comes down to

where he wins the race and I finish second, it’s going to be an awfully disappointing night for (my) team, but yet a very exciting one for (his).”

Both are quick to credit each other for where they are right now, and it will be interesting to see how it plays out over the next 10 weeks. The communication has never been better, and Busch credits Hamlin for helping him improve his short track program.

Where it goes with a title on the line, and how the information flow continues, remains to be seen.

“You would certainly hope the information would continue to be traded back and forth,” Busch said.

No winner of Heisman for 2005

Moore practices, status in doubt

NEW YORK (AP) — And the Heisman Trophy winner for 2005 is — no one.

Rather than replace Reggie Bush, who returned his trophy after a scandal erupted, the officials who administer the award decided it would remain vacant for that year.

There was some initial talk that the trophy might go to former Texas quarterback Vince Young, who finished a distant second to Bush in the voting.

However, Heisman Trust President William Dockery told The Associated Press in a telephone interview Wednesday that the eight trustees never decided to take the trophy away from Bush nor did they receive any advance notice of Bush’s decision.

“We’re certainly not upset Reggie resolved the issue,” he said.

The Heisman board held its regular monthly meeting Tuesday, but Dockery said there were no plans to make a final decision about Bush and the 2005 Heisman at that time.

Turns out they didn’t have to.

Before the meeting started, Bush announced he would make the unprecedented move of forfeiting the Heisman he won while starring at running back for Southern California.

In June, after a fouryear investigation, the NCAA ruled Bush was ineligible for the 2005 season for receiving improper benefits.

CHARLOTTE, (AP) — Just three days after getting knocked out of Carolina’s season opening loss with a concussion, Panthers quarterback Matt Moore practiced and expressed confidence he’ll play Sunday against Tampa Bay. If Moore passes additional cognitive tests and is cleared by doctors later this week, coach John Fox will give Moore a chance to atone for a poor season debut and delay rookie Jimmy Clausen’s first NFL start.

“I felt good today,” said Moore, who was listed as being limited in Carolina’s workout Wednesday. “We’ll wait and see what the doctors say or whatever, but I felt really good.”

It was a big improvement from Sunday, when Moore acknowledged it took a second jarring hit to realize he

North Carolina State quarterback Russell Wilson (16) prepares to throw during the second half of the Wolfpack’s victory over Central Florida on Saturday.

Wolfpack, Bearcats offer similarities RALEIGH (AP) — North Carolina State coach Tom O’Brien grew up in Cincinnati, still roots for the Reds and continues to look for recruits in southwestern Ohio.

So, yes, he’s noticed what his hometown Bearcats have done in the Big East since he left that conference and they joined it.

“When you win 33 games like they have (from 2007-09) ... it just shows how far that program has come, and how good they really are,” O’Brien said.

The Big East’s twotime BCS representatives are still trying to prove they haven’t taken a step back with the departure of coach Brian Kelly to Notre Dame, starting Thursday night when Cincinnati (1-1) visits the Wolfpack (2-0).

It marks the latest test of a critical four-game swing for the Bearcats, who lost a tricky opener at Fresno State and play

host to No. 7 Oklahoma next week.

“I thought it was a great challenge but also a great opportunity,” new coach Butch Jones said of that stretch. “You tell me another team in the country that has three games in 12 days and has to go on the West Coast, play in a difficult environment, play in one of the best ACC environments in N.C. State, then get done with that, turn around and go play Oklahoma.

“It is a great challenge, especially when you are playing so many young players.”

There will be plenty of new faces on the field for both teams when Cincinnati’s defense matches up against the Wolfpack offense.

The Bearcats don’t start any seniors on defense, while three of N.C. State’s starting offensive linemen had never started a game before this season and both of the Wolfpack’s two tailbacks on the depth

chart are freshmen.

The centerpieces of both offenses are dual-threat quarterbacks with differing levels of experience.

N.C. State’s Russell Wilson is in his third season as the starter but is still trying to rediscover his football form after spending the summer playing baseball in the Colorado Rockies’ organization.

Wilson, who was 10 of 30 for 105 yards in the Central Florida win, is “still feeling his way and getting back into the swing of things,” O’Brien said.

“You can’t give football up in November and pick a ball up in August and think that you’re going to be on top of your game,” he said.

Zach Collaros inherited the starting job at Cincinnati on a full-time basis this season after making four starts in 2009 when Tony Pike was injured.

The junior brings more mobility to the Bearcats’ spread offense than Pike did.

had suffered a concussion on the previous drive when his head banged against the turf.

Moore, who threw three end zone interceptions and lost a fumble, was helped off the field after Osi Umenyiora sacked him late in the fourth quarter of the New York Giants’ 31-18 win.

“I think the hit from behind really triggered something or made me realize something is not right,” Moore said.

Then came the nausea followed by an ambulance trip to the hospital for evaluation. But when asked if it would be accurate to describe it as a “mild” concussion, Moore replied that it was “nothing crazy.”

Just being allowed on the field proved Moore — and reserve receiver Charly Martin, who also returned to practice after a concussion Sunday — showed progress.

Bad ankle slows Delhomme BEREA, Ohio (AP) — As his teammates busily dressed for practice, Jake Delhomme hobbled across the hallway from Cleveland’s training room to the locker room.

Wearing a protective boot on his injured right ankle, Delhomme felt out of place.

“It’s embarrassing,” the quarterback said.

Injured during the first half of his debut with the Browns, Delhomme did not practice on Wednesday and his playing status for Sunday’s home opener against Kansas City will depend on how quickly

he recovers from the first ankle injury of his 12-year NFL career.

Delhomme, who got hurt while throwing a costly interception in Sunday’s 17-14 loss at Tampa Bay, underwent an MRI Tuesday.

He refused to reveal the results or any specifics other than to say “I have an ankle that’s bothering me, and I’ll just kind of leave it at that.

“I’m a big believer in what’s said in the training room stays in the training room.”

If Delhomme can’t play, the Browns will start Seneca Wallace.

Official: Banks should share bailout costs WASHINGTON (AP) — The nation’s largest banks have an obligation to pay some of the cost for bailing out mortgage buyers Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac because they sold them bad mortgages, a government regulator told lawmakers Wednesday.

Edward DeMarco, the acting director for the Federal Housing Finance Agency, said the banks this summer have refused to take back $11 billion in bad loans sold to the two government-controlled companies, in written testimony submitted for a House subcommittee hearing Wednesday. A third of those requests have been outstanding for at least three months.

DeMarco said the banks have a legal obligation to

MasterCard predicts 20 percent profit NEW YORK (AP) — MasterCard Inc. expects its net income to rise at least 20 percent this year, helped by a small boost from foreign exchange and a modest decline in expenses.

The company also on Wednesday said it does not expect a serious impact on revenue from a new law limiting merchant fees on debit card use, and late Tuesday announced a new share buyback program.

Oil drops on economic news NEW YORK (AP) — Oil prices fell below $76 a barrel Wednesday as the latest economic data showed the economy was still in low gear and demand for oil and gas was likely to remain weak. Benchmark crude for October delivery lost $1.10 at $75.70 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange.

France claims Boeing ruling as victory GENEVA (AP) — The French government says a preliminary ruling by the world’s top trade court on aid to U.S. aircraft maker Boeing is a victory for European jobs.

France’s transport and environment ministers say the confidential World Trade Organization ruling delivered to U.S. and EU officials Wednesday condemns “massive subsidies” to Boeing.

Details of the ruling weren’t immediately available and a final judgment isn’t expected to be released for several months.

buy back the loans and called the delays “a significant concern.” He said the government may take new steps to force those buybacks if “discussions do not yield reasonable outcomes soon.”

The two mortgage giants nearly collapsed two years ago when the housing market went bust. The government stepped in to rescue them and it has cost taxpayers about $148 billion so far. The rescue is on track to be the most expensive piece of stabilizing the financial system.

Investors who buy loans from banks have the right to force lenders to repurchase them if they later discover fraudulent statements on loan applications.

The leading Democrat on

the House Financial Services Committee subcommittee indicated the banks bear some responsibility.

“We must begin to think about approaches for recouping taxpayers’ money in the long run,” said Rep. Paul Kanjorski, D Pa. “We found a way to pay for the savings and loan crisis, and we can survey find a way to recover the costs associated with this crisis.”

Wall Street has worried that the costs of bailing out Fannie and Freddie could get pushed back on big banks. Fitch Ratings said in a report last month that the four largest U.S. banks could book losses of up to $42 billion if Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac force them to take back troubled mortgages they made.

Industrial production rises 0.2 percent WASHINGTON (AP) — Production at U.S. factories grew in August for the 12th time in 14 months, but at a slower rate than earlier this year as consumers spent cautiously.

Overall output at the nation’s factories, mines and utilities edged up 0.2 percent last month, the Federal Reserve reported Wednesday. It rose 0.6 percent in July.

Production gains at factories, the largest single element of industrial production, slowed to 0.2 percent after rising 0.7 percent in July. Much of the softness came from a decline in auto production, which spiked in July. Excluding autos, manufacturing output rose 0.5 percent.

Production rose for ba-

sic consumer goods such as food, clothing and paper by more than 1.0 percent. Factories produced 0.7 percent more business equipment in August.

Manufacturing has helped drive economic expansion over the past year. Companies built up their stockpiles in the first half of the year after slashing them during the recession. But factory output has slowed in recent months. Businesses are no longer rebuilding their inventories. At the same time, demand for goods remains weak because consumers are saving more and spending with caution.

“Consumers have failed to take up the baton,” said Paul Ashworth, senior U.S. economist at Capital Economics in Toronto.

China rejects US trade complaint BEIJING (AP) — China rejected a U.S. union’s trade complaint over Beijing’s support for clean energy industries and said Wednesday such criticism is hypocritical at a time when China is under pressure to cut greenhouse gas emissions.

The Sept. 9 complaint by the United Steelworkers said Chinese producers of wind and solar equipment receive improper subsidies in violation of Beijing’s free-trade com-

mitments. The Obama administration has 45 days to decide whether to launch an investigation that could lead to cases being filed against China before the WTO. “The policies issued

by China fit World Trade Organization rules,” said Commerce Ministry spokesman Yao Jian.

“We hope the U.S. government will reject this request and protect the good economic and trade relationship of the two sides,” Yao said.

Stocks keep rally alive NEW YORK (AP) — Stocks overcame an early slide Wednesday and closed higher as investors tried to keep a September rally alive.

Major indexes had opened lower after a poor reading on factory activity in New York, but turned higher around midday after getting better news on U.S. industrial production.

That report showed the national industrial sector grew for the 12th time 14 months.

Better news on manufacturing was the main trigger behind the rally that began in early September and has now propelled stocks higher on nine out of the past 11 days. The Dow Jones industrial average, which gained 46 points Wednesday, is up 5.6 percent over that time.

In corporate news, MasterCard Inc. rose sharply after saying it expects its income to rise at least 20 percent this year. Shares rose $10.43, or 5.2 percent, to $210.18.

Kraft Foods Inc., known for brands like Nabisco and Maxwell House, rose after saying its earnings would jump between 9 percent and 11 percent over the next three years thanks to growth in developing markets. Shares rose 53 cents to $31.58 and earlier hit a new high for the year.

The Dow Jones industrial average rose 46.24, or 0.4 percent, to close at 10,572.73. It was the index’s highest close since Aug. 10. The Standard & Poor’s 500 index gained 3.97, or 0.4 percent, to 1,125.07.

Tropical Storm Karl hits Mexico’s Yucatan

EU proposes tougher rules

AP

European Commissioner for Internal Market and Services Michel Barnier gestures while speaking during a media conference at EU headquarters in Brussels on Wednesday. in line with restrictions the U.S. Congress passed over the summer to get a better grip on banks and Wall Street.

“We have to limit the risks of this hyper speculation by shedding light, by forcing people to be transparent. We have to know on all of these markets, with the Americans

and the other regions, who is doing what,” Barnier said.

“No player, no market, no territory, must remain outside this supervision,” he said.

“No financial market can afford to remain a Wild West territory,” Barnier said, arguing that lack of controls on

specialized financial products compounded the global financial crisis.

He said such specialized markets had been working too long as an entity unto themselves, without control or scrutiny. He said his proposals would increase transparency and make the markets safer.

BRUSSELS (AP) – The European Union’s executive on Wednesday proposed tougher curbs on financial market practices seen to have contributed to the global market crisis that drove the world’s largest economies into recession.

EU Services Commissioner Michel Barnier said Wednesday he wants to rein in the market for derivatives – financial instruments based on the value of other assets – and insisted regulators should have powers to restrict, and even ban, short selling.

Barnier said the measures on the derivatives market would kick in in 2012 and bring Europe

NEW YORK (AP) – Toys R Us plans to open 10 FAO Schwarz pop-up stores for the holidays, giving new life to a brand it recently acquired that was down to just two locations.

The move is latest piece of the toy retailer’s aggressive plan to gain market share in a weak economy.

Toys R Us is also opening 600 Toys R Us pop-up stores and increasing the selection of its exclusive toys and its own “R” label toys.

“In a difficult economy, the smart thing to do is push forward,” CEO Jerry Storch said in a meeting with the media on Wednesday.

Toys R Us, which bought the assets of the high-end retailer FAO Schwarz after it filed for bankruptcy protection in 2009, already has a separate area in all of its stores for FAO Schwarzbranded toys, including a smaller version of the piano featured in the movie “Big” for $79.99.

CANCUN, Mexico (AP) – A strong Tropical Storm Karl made landfall on Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula on Wednesday, hitting a sparsely populated stretch of Caribbean coast, while two Category 4 hurricanes roared further out in the Atlantic.

Karl made landfall up the coast from the Quintana Roo state capital of Chetumal, with winds of about 65 mph (100 kph), according to the U.S. National Hurricane Center in Miami.

The storm hit about midway between the

cruise ship port of Majahual and the coastal town of Xcalak.

Violeta Pineda, who has operated thatch-roof bungalows known as the Hotel Kabah Na for 13 years, said waves were rolling about 25 yards (meters) onto the beach and eating away at a stretch of road that runs along the coast.

Electricity went out briefly around Majahual.

Karl’s center passed close to the state capital, where there were reports of heavy rain and wind, downed trees and power outages.

Colorado fire forecast improves; residents may return home LOVELAND, Colo.

(AP) – Residents forced out of their homes by a northern Colorado wildfire may be allowed to return after a meteorologist said the winds won’t be as bad as expected.

Firefighters had been told to expect winds of 20 to 25 mph Wednesday, but a revised forecast predicted only occasional gusts of that strength, with weaker winds overall.

“We always like to hear less wind when we’re dealing with fire,” said Terry Krasko, a spokesman for the fire management team.

If the winds do kick up, firefighters have

“a small air force” of tankers and helicopters ready to drop fire retardant and water, Krasko said. The aircraft were brought to Colorado last week to fight a 10-square-mile fire that destroyed at least 166 homes west of Boulder.

The northern Colorado fire, in the foothills west of Loveland, has blackened 710 acres and destroyed two homes and an unknown number of vehicles.

Firefighters thought the burned area was as big as 925 acres, or about 11⁄2 square miles, but they revised that downward after better mapping.
