Former Tyco plant in Wallburg now sits empty. County Economic Development Commission, said a new company, code-named
Project Plus, is considering expanding its operations to Wallburg. The company is
considering the site of the now-defunct Tyco Electronics at 5568 Gumtree Rd., according to county documents. Googe said 500 jobs would be the largest announcement in Davidson County in the last 20 years. He said he has been working with Project Plus for about 16 months. “We showed them a number of sites in Davidson County,” Googe said. “They found one that they thought would do a really nice job for them, so we’ve got a package that is competitive and a wise investment for the county.” Under the proposal, the
Wallburg Town Council and Davidson County Board of Commissioners would appropriate a combined $1.5 million for the purchase of the building at 5568 Gumtree Road. The company would lease the building back through Davidson County and Wallburg for $75,000 for 20 years. In return, Wallburg and Davidson County would combine for an economic development grant of $75,000 annually for 20 years, Googe said. If Wallburg joins in the effort to entice the company, it would be the first incentives

Trinity sets January goal for trash service BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
TRINITY – The Trinity City Council on Tuesday night agreed to take the next step toward implementing a mandatory trash and recycling service. Members of the city council voted unanimously to approve a resolution of intent to provide curbside service in January. The City Council would provide the service by con-
tracting with a corporation formed by three of the city’s haulers – Roadside Trash, Smith Disposal and Handy’s Garbage. The City Council approved the resolution after hearing from residents who expressed mixed views about the city implementing the mandatory service. Now, city staff will look to have a contract for the haulers for the City Council’s consideration in October. Officials say the city is considering
the service because City Hall currently gets about 20 calls a week from residents who don’t have a place to recycle since the N.C. General Assembly changed laws on recycling. If the city implements the service in January and contracts the new corporation, the city would have to pay displacement fees of $1,880 to the other haulers currently operating in Trinity, according to information reviewed by the City Council last month. If the city decided to
contract with anyone other than Roadside Trash, Smith Disposal and Handy’s Garbage, it would have to pay displacement fees of $180,000 to the three haulers. City officials have said they expect the fee for the service to be approximately $15 each month. Last year, the service was projected to cost $486,000 a year, with a monthly fee of $15. dignasiak@hpe.com | 888-3657
City, SHARE to renovate foreclosed homes BY PAM HAYNES ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
HIGH POINT – Eight foreclosed homes in the city will begin to receive makeovers in the next few days as a partnership between the city and SHARE of North Carolina Inc. gets under way. The city is using funds it received from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development for a Neighborhood Stabilization Program to pay for the venture. Its purpose is to repair foreclosed homes that otherwise would remain vacant and sell them to low- to moderate-income families who earn less than 50 percent of the area median income, said Mike McNair, director of community development
and housing. “Any time you take a vacant property and put it back in service, especially repairing it and bringing it up to code, you’re bettering the community,” McNair said. “It changes the dynamic in the neighborhood.” The homes are scattered throughout the city, with some located on roads like Montlieu Avenue, Hampstead Drive and Westgate Drive, and were selected by Greensboro-based SHARE according to certain criteria, such as how many repairs were needed. “It turns into a great deal for the families who buy them,” said Bill Waller, SHARE president. “The homes are selling at 50 or 60 percent tax value because

SHARE will renovate this house at 1009 Montlieu Ave. the banks want to get them off their books, and it isn’t costing us much to put them in like-new condition. The idea is that homebuyers are getting good deals by purchasing these properties.” Families that qualify can buy the homes or rent-tobuy. They also could receive
funds from the city’s down payment assistance program. “We’ll be using creative methods such as lease-toown to help these people transition,” McNair said. SHARE, or Self-Help and Rewarded Efforts, has renovated homes in other parts
of High Point. The Macedonia neighborhood is a prime example of the non-profit’s work, Waller said. It also assisted the city in revitalization efforts in the West End and East Central neighborhoods. “Since we began in 2000, our purpose has been to help low- to moderate-income people by helping them to clean up their credit, manage their money or own their home,” Waller said. “We like to say that we don’t just put people in houses – we build communities. Look at Macedonia now. It was a run-down neighborhood with high crime. Now it’s safe, healthy and a good place to raise children.”

State gives OK to Randleman lake water distribution BY PAUL B. JOHNSON ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
RANDOLPH COUNTY – State environmental officials made it official Tuesday – water can begin flowing from the Randleman Regional Reservoir to customers across Randolph and Guilford counties. After months of testing and review, the N.C. Department of Environment and Natural Resources approved the Piedmont Triad Re-
gional Water Authority to begin providing drinking water. Authority Executive Director John Kime said water is scheduled to begin flowing to customers the first of October as final details are worked out with Randolph County and municipal officials who have contracted to receive water supplies. The state approval culminates decades of planning and years of work to construct a
water treatment and pumping plant and supply pipelines from the lake. The $60 million to $70 million facility will provide water to Randolph County and High Point, Greensboro, Jamestown, Archdale and Randleman. Piedmont leaders have said the lake will provide a water source that will make the region less susceptible to the effects of droughts on water supplies. State environmental

for the program by raising the cap on how much income can be taxed. Burr rejected a proposal previously backed by Republicans to earmark a part of Social Security collections into private accounts, something a spokeswoman recently said he supported. Marshall said the idea of raising the retirement age was off the table, even though she previously said it should be considered. It’s a crucial issue for the two candidates to settle as they court retired North Carolina residents, typically a demographic that reliably turns out
pjohnson@hpe.com | 888-3528
to vote on Election Day. The state has more than 1 million residents age 65 and older. Burr’s position on Social Security was hard to pin down even back in 2005, when President George W. Bush began pushing a plan that would allow taxpayers to put a portion of their Social Security money toward a private account. Burr never seemed to expressly endorse the proposal but he embraced the debate and on multiple occasions said he envisioned the end result would allow people an option similar to a 401(k).

tween the Washington Redskins and Dallas Cowboys.”The cousins had been drinking when Michael Bynum “shoulder bumped” Reginald Bynum and challenged him to a fight, according to the police report. Witnesses said at some point, both men
“began stabbing and cutting each other.” Michael Bynum was transported to Wilson Medical Center where he received stitches to his neck. Reginald Bynum sought medical treatment on his own for blunt force trauma to his head.

Trinity man gets 33-year prison term for robberies HIGH POINT – A local man was sentenced last week to more than 33 years in federal prison for carrying out a string of armed robberies in Guilford, Davidson and Randolph counties in late 2008 and early 2009. Steven Craig Hopkins, 48, of Trinity, pleaded guilty in U.S. District Court in Greensboro to federal robbery and firearms charges in connection with convenience store robberies from Oct. 31, 2008, to Feb. 7, 2009. He is already serving a state prison sentence of up to 11 years and 7 months for the robberies. Hopkins and an accomplice, Christopher Lewis Cox, were linked to 12 store robberies in Archdale, High Point,
Trinity and Thomasville. They were caught after a Thomasville police officer entered the Fast Track on Randolph Street on Feb. 7, 2009, while Hopkins was robbing the store, according to court documents. He was taken into custody without incident and identified his accomplice as Cox, who was arrested later that day in Randolph County. Federal prosecutors said both defendants gave written statements detailing the businesses they robbed. Court documents described some of the robberies, including one at Sams Mart No. 3 on Meadowbrook Drive in Trinity on Nov. 12, 2008, in which a robber stole $282, warned the people inside the store not to use the phone and then fired one shot into the
wall behind the counter. Indictments charged the men with several robberies between Oct. 31, 2008, and Nov. 12, 2008, including at Wilco, 3030 N. Main St., High Point; Kangaroo, 11315
N. Main St., Archdale; Quick Stop, 5603 Finch Farm Road, Trinity; Main Way, 2010 S. Main St., High Point; and Moose Tracks Citgo, 1771 NC 62, Archdale, as well as another robbery
on Feb. 7, 2009 at Wilco Hess, 801 W. Fairfield Road, High Point. Court records show a federal jury convicted Cox on 15 of the 17 counts he faced following a trial in June. He hasn’t been
sentenced yet on those charges. Cox, 23, of Trinity, is serving a state prison term of up to 6 years and 11 months for the robberies. pkimbrough@hpe.com || 888-3531

9 NATO troops die in chopper crash in Afghanistan KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) – A helicopter carrying international troops crashed in a rugged section of southern Afghanistan on Tuesday, killing nine service members in the deadliest such incident in four years for coalition forces. A “large number” of Americans were among
the dead, according to a military official in Washington, who spoke on condition of anonymity because not all relatives had been notified. One other coalition service member, an Afghan National Army soldier and a U.S. civilian were wounded. The coalition would not disclose the helicopter’s
mission, and the cause of the crash was not immediately clear. NATO said there were no reports of enemy fire in the early morning hours in the Daychopan district of Zabul province, where the crash took place. Taliban spokesman Qari Yousef Ahmadi told The Associated Press by
telephone that insurgents shot down the helicopter. The Taliban sometimes take credit for accidents. “The Taliban are not involved in this crash at all,” said Mohammad Jan Rasoolyar, a spokesman for the provincial governor in Zabul.

Chileans optimistic for early October rescue SANTIAGO, Chile – Chilean rescuers are growing increasingly optimistic about pulling the 33 trapped miners out far sooner than originally estimated, and with drilling quickly advancing on three narrow escape chutes, they raced Tuesday to decide on a design for the capsule that will lift the men to safety. President Sebastian Pinera has staked his presidency on being able to show the world that his government has safely rescued the miners ahead of schedule. He promised the men after they were found to be alive Aug. 22 that they would be home by Christmas – a timeframe mining experts called far too conservative.

Medvedev was invited earlier this month.

Police seize $30 million from Vatican in probe VATICAN CITY – Italian authorities seized euro23 million ($30 million) from a Vatican bank account Tuesday and said they have begun investigating top officials of the Vatican bank in connection with a money-laundering probe. The Vatican said it was “perplexed and surprised” by the investigation. Italian financial police seized the money as a precaution and prosecutors placed the Vatican bank’s chairman and director general under investigation for alleged mistakes linked to violations of Italy’s anti-laundering laws, news reports said.

Mideast peacemakers cancel conference amid rancor UNITED NATIONS (AP) – The Quartet of Mideast peacemakers shepherding the newly started direct Israeli-Palestinian negotiations called on Israel to extend a settlement freeze, after abruptly canceling a planned news conference over a disagreement on who would appear on behalf of the group. Senior diplomats from the Quartet – the U.S., the European Union, the United Nations and Russia – met on the sidelines of the United Nations anti-poverty meeting to discuss a way for-
ward in the negotiations, which have made little visible progress since they resumed earlier this month and are at risk of collapsing. In a statement afterward, the Quartet said the “commendable Israeli settlement moratorium instituted last November has had a positive impact and urged its continuation.� It encouraged both sides to continue negotiating “in a constructive manner and urged the international community to support their efforts.� But on the key issue of whether Israel will extend
a partial ban on settlement building in the West Bank, territory the Palestinians want for a future state, Israeli Deputy Foreign Minister Danny Ayalon indicated that Israel disagrees with the view that construction is a major impediment to the talks. “Settlements have never been an issue, because once we agree on borders everything will be obvious, so let’s concentrate on the real issues and not just put the obstacle in the settlements,� he told reporters on the sidelines of the Quartet’s talks.

Body recovered as Texas rain eases CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas (AP) – Authorities have found the body of a driver swept away in floodwaters after storms dumped more than 10 inches of rain along the Texas coast. Corpus Christi police on Tuesday recovered the
body of a 36-year-old who had dialed 911 for help Monday after driving into Oso Creek. Three days of relentless rain swelled the waterway to nearly 31 feet, breaking the previous record set by Hurricane Alex in 1980.
Jackson Jr. denies report about Blagojevich funds CHICAGO (AP) – Congressman Jesse Jackson Jr. denied allegations Tuesday that he directed a businessman to offer former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich millions of dollars in exchange for being appointed to the U.S. Senate seat vacated by President Barack Obama. Jackson, who is weighing a run for Chicago mayor, has denied knowing about any offers made on his behalf ever since allegations
first surfaced following Blagojevich’s 2008 arrest on charges he schemed to sell or trade the Senate appointment. This time, however, the allegations include a contention by businessman Raghuveer Nayak to the FBI that Jackson himself told Nayak, a month before Obama’s election, to offer Blagojevich a total of $6 million in exchange for the Senate seat.

High Point has made necessary expenditures Last Thursday, you published a letter from a Davidson County resident critical of the city’s environmental improvements as well as expenditures (Mary Cridlebaugh, “City administration knows how to spend money”). The writer has had a long, passionate and respected desire to see needed improvements to the city’s Westside Wastewater Treatment Facility and related sewer lines. The city has committed a substantial $66.8 million to upgrade and expand the Westside Wastewater Treatment Facility as well as to replace the Kool Pool, Corbett and Kindergarden Outfall lines. The necessary wastewater improvements advocated by the writer are expensive as she knows. The improvements do cost money. Cleaning up Rick Fork Creek also costs money. The costs are paid by sewer rates. I am pleased that most of the investments in the Westside improvements are either complete, or are well into the process of being completed. The economy has been tough on the city just as it has been on families and businesses. Like many, we have both cut expenses as well as drawn on fund balances to maintain essential services during this very tough time. The writer was correct in saying we have drawn some from our fund balances in the last year. State forms are hard to read for many, and in all respect,

the writer was wrong in saying we have increased administrative salaries by $3.4 million. The writer’s letter omits the fact that city employees have gone without salary increases for two years; 51 positions have been eliminated; and expenses have been cut by $16 million. Significantly, at the same time we have also been able to maintain our valuable and critically important AAA bond rating. STRIB BOYNTON High Point The writer is city manager of High Point.

Oak Hallow Mall best in private hands
T
he Enterprise reported last week on two possible options for the future of Oak Hallow Mall – and one of those options far, far, far outweighs the other in value to the city. We’re pulling for report No. 1, which involves a business in Texas, over report No. 2, which has been called a contingency plan the city could put into action. In a story on Friday by staff writer Paul B. Johnson quoting three independent unnamed sources, the Enterprise reported that Provident Realty Advisors Inc. of Dallas is negotiating a possible sale with CBL & Associates Properties Inc. of Chattanooga, which built the mall 15 years ago. Based solely on information about Provident Realty Advisors gleaned from its website, the company sounds like it would be a good fit for Oak Hallow. Provident presents itself as a company experienced in revitalizing underperforming or distressed properties. Perhaps Provident might have the expertise needed to keep Oak Hallow a viable retail and office center. On Saturday, staff writer Pat Kimbrough reported that High Point City Council had asked City Manager Strib Boynton to prepare a contingency plan for the city to buy the mall and move some city operations there if a sale could not be made and the mall would eventually plan to close. Thank goodness, every member of City Council that Kimbrough spoke with for that story emphasized that this contingency plan is just a last-ditch effort kind of thing to keep the mall alive if necessary and not some idea that the city actually might be interested in pursuing today. We, of course, want to see the mall remain viable economically and under private ownership that wants to revitalize the complex and move it forward. And we doubt that even as a last-ditch effort this city contingency plan would be the way to go. City officials aren’t trained to run a retail facility. If the city bought the mall, if would be off the tax books, and making such a purchase would require significant borrowing or a huge, one-time influx of tax dollars. Perhaps, the city could cooperate with a new owner in relocating to the mall some city facilities – such as the senior center and the police station – that have needs. But let’s put that contingency plan far, far, far into the back of our minds.

283,000 jobs this summer. White House economic advisers are like the gang that couldn’t shoot straight. Economic advisers consist of Clinton retreads, tax cheats and academia. None has ever made a payroll or created one job. Fiscal experts are predicting that 10 percent unemployment could be around for 2011 and 2012. My business accounts see no turnaround in the near future and are very concerned. President Obama and the White House appear to be more clueless every day about how to fix the economy. Obama makes all these wimpy statements about the economy which do not give business any confidence to hire workers or Americans to spend money. Obamacare, new taxes and all the new regulations are all job killers plus all the attacks on Wall Street and the rich.
There are two examples of how much Obama really cares about Americans having jobs. One is closing down all offshore oil drilling in the Gulf for no good reason, resulting in 23,000 people out of work. The second was Obama telling Americans not once, but twice, not to visit Las Vegas. The governor of Nevada has stated that Obama’s dumb statements caused 400 business groups to cancel meetings resulting in a loss of $100 million and many jobs for the city. Our own Democrat Sen. Kay Hagan voted for a bill knowing it would cost 3,000 N.C. jobs. President Obama wants to transform the economy and may just end up destroying it first. Thank God many Democrats and the liberal media are finally parting ways with Obama over the failed economy and seeing his real radical agenda for what it is. So many Americans need a job and so little is being done to help them. Vote Nov. 2. REGIS KLINE Trinity

Our academic institutions are overwhelmingly dominated by liberals. They feature speech codes that punish politically incorrect statements. Even to apply to many colleges and universities, students OPINION must have spent time as “volunteers” for activiThomas ties arbitrarily defined by Sowell admissions committees as ■■■ “community service.” As for conservatism, it has no specific political meaning, because everything depends on what you are trying to conserve. In the last days of the Soviet Union, those who were trying to maintain the Communist system were widely – and correctly – described as “conservatives,” though they had nothing in common with such conservatives as William F. Buckley or Milton Friedman. Professor Friedman for years fought a losing battle against being labeled a conservative. He considered himself a liberal in the original sense of the word. But he is remembered today as one of the great conservatives of our time. Great, yes. But conservative? It depends on what you mean by conservative. Conservatism, in its original meaning, would require preserving the welfare state and widespread government intervention in the economy. Neither Milton Friedman nor most of the other people designated as conservatives today want that. Liberals often flatter themselves with having the generosity that the word implies. Many of them might be shocked to discover that Ronald Reagan donated a higher percentage of his income to charity than either Ted Kennedy or Franklin D. Roosevelt. Nor was this unusual. Conservatives in general donate more of their income and their time to charitable endeavors and donate far more blood. We are probably stuck with having to use words like liberal and conservative. But we can at least recognize them as nothing more than political flags of convenience. We need not accept these words literally, as the money of fools.

YOUR VIEW POLL
Instead of conservative, liberal call them X and Y mong the many words that don’t mean what they say, but which too many of us accept as if they did, are those staples of political discussion, “liberals” and “conservatives.” Most liberals are not liberal and most conservatives are not conservative. We might be better off just calling them X and Y, instead of imagining that we are really describing their philosophies. Moreover, like most confusion, it has consequences. The late liberal professor Tony Judt of New York University gave this definition of liberals: “A liberal is someone who opposes interference in the affairs of others: who is tolerant of dissenting attitudes and unconventional behavior.” According to Judt, liberals favor “keeping other people out of our lives, leaving individuals the maximum space in which to live and flourish as they choose.” That is certainly in keeping with the dictionary definition of liberalism and with most contemporary liberals’ vision of themselves. But, if we follow Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes’ admonition to “think things, not words” and look beyond the label to the tangible realities of the world, we find almost the exact opposite of what the word “liberal” is supposed to mean. Most of us would probably regard the current administration in Washington – both the White House and the Congress – as “liberal,” even though the word “progressive” may be more in vogue. Does the sweeping legislation empowering federal officials to tell doctors, patients, hospitals, and insurance companies what to do, when it comes to medical care, sound like leaving individuals the maximum space to live their lives as they choose? Communities that have had overwhelmingly liberal elected officials for decades abound in nanny state regulations, micro-managing everything from home-building to garbage collection. San Francisco is a classic example. Among its innumerable micro-managing laws is one recently passed requiring that gas stations must remove the little levers that allow motorists to pump gas into their cars without having to hold the nozzle. Liberals are usually willing to let people violate the traditional standards of the larger society but crack down on those who dare to violate liberals’ own notions and fetishes.

Teens can conquer peer pressures W
---
e teenagers face peer pressure. We want to fit in with the popular crowd instead of standing out alone. However, sometimes in order to fit it, we have to compromise ourselves and give into peer pressure. Some types of peer pressure are positive, but sadly, most of the ones we give into are negative and damage our character. There are many ways to fight peer pressure, and applying these ways to life can help one have a better self-image, better friends and a better mind-set. One way to fight peer pressure is to learn to identify negative pressures and resist them. Our society wants to mold us into a certain shape like the one modeled by the media. Sometimes that means losing 40 pounds, wearing a specific brand of makeup or clothes or having a certain kind of personality or charm. Although these can be positive pressures, many young people stumble and fall because the pressures are taken to extremes. If we want to win the battle against negative pressures, we must learn to avoid. We also need to learn to look for positive ones. Are we spending time with people that encourage us to be a better person or do we burden ourselves with those who discourage us from attaining sound character and principles? Often we have a mix of both, but we must discover how to say “no” to those who do not have our best interest in mind. Another form of peer pressure is not necessarily from our own peers but from the media. We often are told how to look, who to hang out with and how to act. Sorrowfully, this is an attempt to create universal uniformity and eliminate the diversity of our nation and world. Overcoming the “perfect image” advertised
by the media is difficult, but the more we learn to love ourselves for who we are, the more we will grow confident in everyday situations. TEEN VIEW When we have self-confidence, we Brittany are more likely to Farmer win victory over ■■■ negative influences and stand firm in who we know we are. Charles Stanley once said: “People who constantly, and fervently, seek the approval of others live with an identity crisis. They don’t know who they are, and they are defined by what others think of them.” In other words, who cares what other people think about you! We are unique, one-of-a-kind creations that have purposes no one else can accomplish. Look in the mirror. No one else in the entire world has had a face identical to yours. Does that not make you feel special? Not only does your physical appearance set you apart from the billions of people on Earth, but also your personality. Your kindness, joy, patience, and humility intertwine to make a unique individual with a beautiful heart. Peer pressure is everywhere and we all face it every day. However, there are ways we can fight it and become better individuals. We must take a stand for who we are, refuse to let anyone make us feel inferior, be an encouragement to those around you. Let us show friends, family and co-workers that they too can overcome the negative influences in this world and have a positive self-image.

Incentives request withdrawn BY PAT KIMBROUGH ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
HIGH POINT – A local company has decided to relocate without the help of economic incentives from the city – for now. The Phillips Collection, a furnishings product and design company, withdrew a request for up to $100,000 in cash incentives that the City Council had been scheduled to consider this week. In a letter to the city, President and CEO Mark
Phillips explained that the company is moving forward with plans to relocate from Kivett Drive to the former Rose Furniture building at 916 Finch Ave. but is temporarily putting off the development of a furniture and accessories design center incubator at the site. “I am pleased to announce that we are going forward with the purchase of the building,” Phillips wrote. “With the project being divided into sepa-
rate parts, incentives are not necessary for Phase 1 – our company’s move. We are eager to grow with the city in our new location and bring Phase 2 to fruition very soon.” The incentives proposal for the company drew criticism because it would have involved the use of public funds to facilitate a business moving from one part of the city to another. Those who took issue also pointed to the projections that it would have in-
volved the creation of five jobs – a relatively small number compared to typical cases when incentives are awarded. City officials indicated the company might come back with an incentives request depending on how its business develops. Phillips said the design center incubator remains a priority. Council members have expressed support for the idea of an incubator – which could offer space for design ventures in the
furniture industry – as something that is needed, particularly in south High Point, where unemployment is high and business investment is scarce. “I think it’s vitally important the city cooperate in an incubator,” said Councilman John Faircloth. “I think that’s a good spot for it down there, it just needs to not have the incentive stigma attached to it.” pkimbrough@hpe.com | 888-3531

ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT
GUILFORD COUNTY – The county health department has aimed a message at men who have concerns about their HIV/AIDS status. In 2006, in the United States, roughly three out of every four people living with HIV were male. Of these men approximately 64 percent of them contracted HIV through male-to-male sexual contact. The Guilford County Department of Public Health is joining the National Association of People With AIDS in highlighting the importance for all men, and especially gay and bisexual men, in knowing their HIV status. “It is crucial for everyone to know their HIV status,” said Merle Green, county health director. “Please take advantage of one of these many opportunities for free and confidential testing.” The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends routine annual testing for all persons ages 13 to 64. The health department also encourages health care providers to be attentive to the sexual health needs of all of their patients, especially men, and promoting STD testing. These local community based organizations offer free and confidential testing for HIV and syphilis: • Piedmont Health Services and Sickle Cell Agency in High Point, 401 Taylor St., first and third Thursdays, 1-7 p.m. • Triad Health Project, 801 Summit Ave., Greensboro; Mondays, 5-7 p.m. • Piedmont Health Services and Sickle Cell Agency, 1102 E. Market St., Greensboro; Tuesdays, 9 a.m.-noon; Thursdays, 1-4 p.m. • The HIVE hosted by NIA Community Action Center, 1412 Groove St., Greensboro; Wednesdays, 3-6 p.m.

ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT
HIGH POINT – Local businessman Dave Phillips is playing a key role in a visit to North Carolina next week by U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates. Phillips, a former U.S. ambassador to Estonia and former secretary of the N.C. Department of Commerce, helped arranged for Gates to speak at Duke University in Durham. The free lecture at 5 p.m. Sept. 29 is part of the Ambassador S. Davis Phillips Family International Lecture Series at Duke.

Carolinas get high marks on health emergency plans RALEIGH (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Improvements in nationwide readiness for emergencies like bioterrorism or pandemic flu praised by a new report may already be in jeopardy, thanks to dwindling budgets and shrinking staffs. A report released Tuesday by the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said the countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s overall preparedness for such emergencies has improved, including in both North and South Carolina, which got high marks in everything from laboratory capabilities to getting the word out to the public. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Much progress has been made to build and strengthen national public health preparedness and response ca-
pabilities,â&#x20AC;? the report says. But the report measures state activities between Oct. 1, 2007, and Sept. 30, 2008, before the worst effects of the Great Recession began to hit state and local budgets. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is not the state of preparedness as it exists in real time today,â&#x20AC;? said Jack Herrmann, senior advisor on public health preparedness for the National Association of County and City Health Officials. In some cases, preparedness has improved, thanks to new procedures devised to address the threat of the H1N1 flu last year, he said. But in many instances, reduced funding and shrunken public health staffs mean preparedness has likely taken a step backwards.
Man sues convenience stores over turban and beard DURHAM (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; A member of the Sikh religious faith says a Durham-based chain of convenience stores crossed a line by telling him to get a shave and a haircut. Surjit Singh Saund sued M.M. Fowler Inc., which owns the Family Fare chain of stores,
on Tuesday in federal court. Saundâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lawsuit says an M.M. Fowler hiring manager told him that he couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t wear a turban, have long hair or a beard. Sikh men refrain from cutting their hair or shaving. They also wear turbans as part
of their religious practice. Saundâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lawsuit seeks lost wages and benefits and other unspecified damages. Documents say he worked in other convenience stores since 2002. A call to M.M. Fowler was not immediately returned Tuesday.

Dear H.P.: Not everyone is born with the gift of gab. In fact, most people arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t. But a smile will tell others that youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re approachable. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the universal way of saying, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m friendly.â&#x20AC;? If you want to get to know someone, walk over and
say, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hi, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Halâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; â&#x20AC;&#x201C; whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s your name?â&#x20AC;? Introducing yourself isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t being ADVICE pushy. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s being Dear friendly. Abby As I â&#x2013; â&#x2013; â&#x2013; say in my booklet â&#x20AC;&#x153;How to Be Popular,â&#x20AC;? the surest cure for shyness is to forget yourself and concentrate on the other person. Everyone can be charming. Charm is putting the other person at ease, making him or her feel comfortable and important. Believe it or not, being a good listener will do more for you than being a good talker. Give people a chance to talk about themselves, and theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll think YOUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;RE a great conversationalist. But, when asking questions as a means to get the other person talking, take care that your questions are tactful, discreet and not too personal. Stay current on whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s

Michael Harvey is escorted after an appearance in Niagara County Court in Lockport, N.Y., Tuesday. had been homeless for a year and admitted using heroin several times since leaving drug rehab. In June 2009, he was convicted of felony breaking and entering â&#x20AC;&#x201C; for stealing golf clubs, power tools and other property the year before â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and received a suspended sentence. This year, he was indicted on three charges from the Charlotte metro area â&#x20AC;&#x201C; possession of a firearm by a felon, possession with intent to sell heroin and possession of drug paraphernalia, specifically needles and baggies.
Secret to good conversation is to show interest in others ear Abby: I am a 20-year-old male who finds it awkward talking to women my age. I do OK approaching older women for conversation, but become tongue-tied with someone under 25. I would like to meet someone special and develop a relationship with her, but at this rate itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not going to happen anytime soon. I am told by friends and family that Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m handsome, charming and have a good sense of humor. There will be holiday parties coming up soon, and my friends will be inviting some new people. How can I learn to strike up a conversation? Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m having a real problem here. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; H.P. in Miami Beach

going on in the world and in the headlines. The more informed you are, the better company you will be. But donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be a know-it-all. People who come off like theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re an authority on everything are about as welcome as a skunk at a garden party. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not to say it pays to be ignorant; rather that the knowit-alls make those of us who are just average feel insecure and uncomfortable. When talking to people, look them in the eye. And when youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re being spoken to, focus your attention on the person whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s addressing you. Nothing turns people off quicker than trying to carry on a conversation with someone whose eyes are constantly wandering â&#x20AC;&#x201C; to see who just came in or who else is in the room.

dited, but North Carolina authorities are already in New York. Police say Harvey killed 23-year-old Valerie Hamilton last week and dumped her body before fleeing to Niagara Falls, where he grew up. Four family members were with the 34-year-old Harvey in court, where his mother broke into tears. Neither his family nor his attorney, Michael White, spoke to reporters as they left the courtroom. A team of state, local and federal officers arrested Harvey on Monday at a Niagara Falls home. Niagara County District Attorney Michael Violante said authorities do not plan to press charges against anyone who knew Harvey was in town. Harvey had been wanted on a murder warrant after Hamiltonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s body was found Saturday. In 1996, he was convicted of first-degree sexual abuse in New York and was on probation in North Carolina after his 2006 conviction on charges that he failed to register as a sex offender. At the time of the 2008 pre-sentencing report, he

CONCORD (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The man accused of killing a police chiefâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s daughter and dumping her body in a self-storage unit is on his way back to North Carolina, where mourners gathered to reflect on a woman remembered as always smiling and joking. More than 500 people crammed into First Presbyterian Church in Concord, N.C., on Tuesday to pay tribute to 23-year-old Valerie Hamilton. When the church filled up, chairs were put on the lawn. Friends remember her as the person who liked to make everyone laugh. Co-workers at the swimming school where she worked say children were drawn to her and didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t cry when she was around. In New York, her accused killed, Michael Neal Harvey, said he would not fight his return to the Charlotte area. Harvey, wearing an orange jail jumpsuit and handcuffs, was sent to the Niagara County Jail to await transfer. It was not immediately known when he would be extra-

Cooke puts his energy into kids
S
teve Cooke did not bounce very well as a child. In fact, in the first 13 years of his life he broke 12 bones. His toys didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t fare much better. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was a very hyper child, and my little brother, David, and I were very destructive with our toys,â&#x20AC;? Cooke said. In eighth grade, ABOVE Cooke was AND persuaded BEYOND to play football, and Patty Jo he loved it. Sawvel In fact, he â&#x2013; â&#x2013; â&#x2013; played four years and ran track in high school. Even though sports redirected Cookeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s energy in a positive way, it did not remedy his reckless nature. After he destroyed his first two cars when he was 16, his dad told him if he ever wanted another vehicle, he would have to get it for himself. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was heartbroken. But now, I thank my dad for teaching me a valuable lesson: I had to work for what I wanted, and I had to learn to appreciate what I had,â&#x20AC;? Cooke said. A soon as Cooke graduated from high school he left home, without a car. He found a one-room apartment and worked at a local diner. Before long, he was working two jobs for a total of 75 hours a week. Cooke did this for the next five years. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I learned that I wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just working for a paycheck. I was working to improve position,â&#x20AC;? Cooke said. At age 25, Cooke married his love-at-first-sight sweetheart, Emily Comer of Kernersville, and accepted a job in office furniture installation. In 2007, while doing a routine repair to a 15-pound overhead storage unit, Cooke suffered a herniated disc. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t work for a year-and-a-half, and I worried that Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d never get to work again,â&#x20AC;? he said. This time, however, Cooke bounced. He bounced right into his favorite job as manager of Kernersville Bounce House. He discovered that his favorite part of the job is working with kids. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I understand rebellious kids, and so Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m able to earn their respect. And, I know how to use humor on the kids who get bogged down in self-pity. But my favorite child to help is the autistic child,â&#x20AC;? Cooke said. These kids are the least flexible, he said. They tend to repeat activities theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve mastered, rather than try new approaches, and they tend to shy from social interaction. Cooke loves the challenge of finding a portal to their world and connecting them to the people and activities around them. â&#x20AC;&#x153;All kids want to be shown how to bounce back from painful or embarrassing situations, but the children with autism are the most appreciative,â&#x20AC;? Cooke said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They become friends for life.â&#x20AC;? PATTY JO SAWVEL is a freelance writer from Kernersville.

Radiation demands respect
D
ear Dr. Donohue: I had a thoracic aortic aneurysm repaired in 2008. Since the surgery, I had several setbacks that brought me to different hospitals. They did CT scans, and, all in all, I have had about six scans in the past two years. I’m supposed to have another CT scan for my operated aneurysm. Should I have it? I wonder how long it takes to see the damage done by all that radiation. I am 63. – J.C.
BLONDIE
Everyone must respect CT scans and X-rays, since they are radiating the body. Radiation can give rise to cancer that doesn’t appear until years later. Doctors have to balance the value of the information gained from these procedures against the danger to their patients’ health. CT scans expose people to much more radiation than an ordinary chest X-ray. These scans furnish information not obtainable in any other way. After repair of a thoracic aortic aneurysm – a bulging weak spot on the aorta wall – a series of CT scans are done in the first year, and then annually thereafter. This is almost standard practice. All the same, tell your doctor you have had CT scans in addition to the ones for your aneurysm. You wonder about your exposure to so much radiation. Ask if it’s possible to obtain the same information from ultrasounds or MRI scans. Neither of these exposes you to any radiation. I

would let my doctor make the decision for me to have the CT scan after discussing it with him or her.
Dear Dr. Donohue: Recently I had what the hospital doctors called a panic attack. I would like to know what causes them and if there is a cure for them. Would lack of sleep or medication have anything to do with it? – W.B. ■■■
A panic attack is a period of extreme fear in a situation that doesn’t warrant such fear. It comes on suddenly, reaches a peak in 10 or fewer minutes and makes the person want to flee from the situation they find themselves in – shopping for groceries, driving a car or walking down a street. During an attack, some of the following are present: the heart beats fast; sweat breaks out; people become short of breath; they can feel like they are choking; they might have chest pain and believe they’re having a heart attack; they could be dizzy. The actual attack probably results from an outpouring of body chemicals, like adrenaline. What triggers the release of these chemicals usually is buried deeply in a person’s subconscious. Lack of sleep or medication could make a person
more susceptible to an attack. If you experience a panic attack only once, you don’t have a great concern. If the attacks recur, then you do have a problem that needs attention. Report them to your family doctor, who will get you started on treatment and refer you to a professional who can unearth hidden causes provoking these attacks. Dear Dr. Donohue: I have a grandson, 28 years old. He has HLA B-27. Is it arthritis? It supposedly affects his spine and eyes and is disabling. – N.D. “HLA” stands for “human leukocyte antigen,” genetically programmed markers on body cells very much like an address on a house. They tell the body that these cells belong to it. The “B27” is another part of the address. HLA B-27 often is found in people with a special kind of arthritis called ankylosing (ANKuh-LOW-sing) spondylitis (SPAWN-duh-LITEiss). It’s an arthritis of the back, and it’s more common in young men. Eye inflammation often is part of the condition. Most people who have the HLA B-27 marker never develop back arthritis or the eye inflammation. In North America, 7 percent of the population has it. That amounts to millions of people. Only a few of them ever develop ankylosing spondylitis. The odds are that your grandson will never develop it.

LOS ANGELES (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The mayor and ex-city manager of the Los Angeles suburb of Bell were among eight current and former city officials arrested Tuesday in a corruption scandal that authorities said cost the blue-collar city more than $5.5 million in excessive salaries and illegal personal loans.

Wake’s Grobe pulls no punches I
n most situations, Wake Forest head coach Jim Grobe can put a positive take on his team’s shortcomings. Not so on Tuesday as he looked back on the Demon Deacons’ 68-24 loss at Stanford late Saturday night. “We had play poor in every area. ... I guess the only positive thing for us is we got to play SPORTS a lot of people,” Grobe said. “I Greer wouldn’t say that’s Smith a shining light.” ■■■ The 68 points was the most surrendered since Grobe became coach in 2001. The 44-point margin of loss was the most for a Grobe team at Wake. The defense didn’t get all the blame as Grobe cited two offensive turnovers and breakdowns on two kick returns that gave Stanford short fields on four of its scoring possessions. “We have nine games to become a good football team.” Grobe said of his 2-1 squad.
“Right now, we are not a very good football team.” Wake’s defense offered no answers as the Cardinal scored on its first Grobe eight possessions, six of them in the first half. Starting quarterback Andrew Luck threw for 207 yards and four touchdowns and ran for another on a 52-yard scramble. Grobe said the onslaught prompted his defense to have “the deer in the headlights look.” One of the things that disappointed Grobe the most was the Deacons’ inability to put up a fight in the second half, after falling behind 41-10. “We didn’t see a lot of kids bow their necks and grit their teeth when things started going poorly,” Grobe said. “When the older guys don’t do it and the new guys don’t know how to do it, you don’t have a lot to hang your hat on. This team has a lot of growing up to do.” The leaky defense against
Stanford came a week after giving up 48 points to Duke. The Deacons are now nextto- last in the ACC inscoring defense, having given up 43 points per game. They are last in pass defense, (294 yards per game) and next to last in total defense (461.3 ypg) as they get ready for a trip to conference Florida State on Saturday. The Seminoles (2-1) rank third in total offense at 417.7 yards per game, behind Duke (443.7) and the Deacons (430.7 ypg). Grobe plans no personnel changes in the secondary other than the expected return of West Davidson product Josh Bush to the starting lineup after he was unavailable last weekend because of a hamstring injury. Bush’s return would move true freshman A.J. Marshall to second string on the depth chart at cornerback. Searching for ways to get better play, Grobe said he will do more instruction on the practice field and spend less time on chalkboard sessions. “We’re not getting a lot of some
of the things that we found successful with more veteran players,” Grobe said. “Sometimes kids don’t take the video and process that out on the field, and you can draw Xs and Os all you want but the kids don’t grasp that. We’re going to let them see it out on the field. We’ve got to teach them a little better.” The changes for this week will include a reduction in the number of schemes that the defense must learn. “Your dilemma becomes how much do you do,” Grobe said. “If you play one look all the time, you are probably not going to be very successful because you’ve got all your ducks on the pond. ... If you get so fancy that the kids are thinking too much, you aren’t playing very fast or you make too may mental mistakes. In the middle is where we need to be. We don’t want to take an unloaded gun, but we don’t want to take all the bullets because the gun would be a little too heavy.” gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3556

Redskins cut Johnson after two yards in two games ASHBURN, Va. (AP) – Larry Johnson was released by the Washington Redskins on Tuesday after gaining just 2 yards on five carries in two games with the team. Johnson was part of a trio of accomplished veteran running backs at the Redskins’ training camp, and two of those players are now gone. Willie Parker was cut at the end of preseason, while Clinton Portis has re-
mained the team’s No. 1 back. To replace Johnson, the Redskins agreed to terms with Chad Simpson, a third-year back who was cut by the Buffalo Bills at the end of preseason. Unlike Johnson, Simpson is known as a regular contributor on special teams. The moves came two days after Johnson lost 10 yards trying to reverse field on a first-down run in the fourth quarter of Washington’s 30-27 overtime loss to the
Houston Texans. It was a critical play that forced the Redskins into a passing situation when they would have been expected to milk the clock with a 10-point lead. The 30-year-old Johnson, a Maryland native, signed a threeyear, incentive-laden contract with Washington in March in hopes of reviving his career. “I’m very upset, didn’t see this coming,” Johnson said in a statement released through his agent.
“But most importantly this is where I wanted to end my career, a place where I was born and raised most of my life. ... So all my eggs were in this basket.” Johnson finished last season with the Cincinnati Bengals after being released by the Kansas City Chiefs in November. His time in Kansas City was marred by offthe-field problems, including two suspensions in his last 12 months with the team.

W
hen the PGA Tour Championship tees off Thursday at East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta, 30 players will vie for the victory in the FedEx Cup season finale. I’m struck almost as much by who won’t be there – Tiger Woods, Vijay Singh, Stewart Cink, David Toms and Anthony Kim are among the big-name guys who failed to qualify – as I am by the men in contention for the title. Based on the reset points for the Tour Championship, it’s a pretty good bet the Cup
champ will come from one of the top 10. With 2,500 points, Matt Kuchar leads Dustin Johnson by 250 points, with Charley Hoffman another 250 back. Steve Stricker (700 behind Kuchar), Paul Casey (900 back) and Jason Day (1,100 back) hold realistic hopes. Luke Donald, Ernie Els, Martin Laird and Phil Mickelson pretty much have to win the Tour Championship and get some help if they want to take the FedEx Cup. Interestingly, the Tour Championship will only have 25 of the top 50 players in the
world ranking, and six of the top 10. Stricker, Mickelson, Els, Jim Furyk and Hunter Mahan are the only players to reach the Tour Championship all four years of the FedEx Cup. I expect plenty of excitement as the FedEx Cup draws to a close. But make no mistake. The Tour Championship will not approach major drama. That’s more likely to come the first weekend of October in the Ryder Cup in Wales.

WHO’S NEWS

Denver Broncos coach Josh McDaniels said in a tearful news conference Tuesday that nobody in the organization saw any hint that wide receiver Kenny McKinley was suicidal before he took his life. “We’ve all seen him recently. He’s been the same person every time we see him. Liked junk food and chips and things like that,” McDaniels said. “He was in the cafeteria, or in the training room, when we were seeing him the last so many weeks here. Nothing that would alarm us to anything like this.” McKinley’s body was discovered by a female friend Monday afternoon when she returned to his Centennial home less than four miles from the team’s headquarters after running an errand with his young son, Keon. Arapahoe County Coroner Michael Dobersen said Tuesday that McKinley, 23, died of a gunshot wound to the head. He said a preliminary investigation “suggests the wound to be selfinflicted.” The team gathered Tuesday morning and met with grief counselors to help them deal with the death of their friend, who was on injured reserve after hurting his left knee in August and requiring surgery for the second time in eight months. The players decided to leave McKinley’s locker in place for the remainder of the season as a shrine to their teammate.

Bison offense passes tough test PREP FOOTBALL NOTES:
Q
uarterbacks, especially those who tend to throw first and run second, rarely end up with great rushing numbers. For every nice gain, after all, come a few sacks that eat into the positive gains. High Point Centralâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Drew Adams proved to be a perfect example of that Friday night. He SPORTS sparked the Bison Steve to a 16Hanf point first â&#x2013; â&#x2013; â&#x2013; quarter with impressive runs of 24 and 20 yards, but ended the game with just 40 yards in all after being credited with four carries of zero or minus yards. In the aftermath of Centralâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s surprisingly easy 33-0 romp past T. Wingate Andrews, both Adams and Bison coach Wayne Jones said all the credit for the early QB keepers went to the offensive line. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The line just did a good job blocking, opened up the holes for me,â&#x20AC;? Adams offered. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I just took what they gave me.â&#x20AC;? The spread offense allowed Adams plenty of options. On Centralâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first drive, he faked an inside handoff and darted around left end for the 24-yard gain that set up first-andgoal. A misfire into the end zone led to Austin Millerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s short field goal. Central jumped ahead 16-0 after Adams again used a great fake to his running back for a 20yard gain into the Andrews red zone. Three plays later, Adams was standing in the end zone on a 3-yard run after linemen Greg Aiken, Anderson Spencer, Jawan Hilton, Thomas Primus and Vince Carrono had plowed an open path. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He read the plays, knew what to do after looking at film,â&#x20AC;? Jones said of his quarterback. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He did a good job.â&#x20AC;? The big guys up front also provided plenty of time for Adams to throw. The senior QB hit on 12 straight completions during one stretch over the first and second quarters and ended the half 16for-22 for 193 yards. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It goes to the offensive line,â&#x20AC;? Jones said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They did a good job of picking up blitzes, keep-

ing him safe the last couple games. When he has time to throw the football, he does a better job than just about anybody here in the area.â&#x20AC;?
ONE MORE YARD Centralâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s biggest pass play of the night came on the first play of its second drive. From his own 26-yard line, Adams hit Derek Grant in stride just beyond midfield. The senior receiver cut toward the right sideline and got past two defenders before being tackled by Andrews speed-burner Mark Johnson at the 1-yard line. It was a fleeting moral victory for the Raiders, who saw Adams hit Justin Johnson for the 1-yard TD one play later. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It kind of got things going,â&#x20AC;? Grant said of the play. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We got a big catch and big run. I was a little down (about not scoring), but it was all right. We scored on the next play.â&#x20AC;?
TIGER MYSTERY MAN Ragsdaleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s running game was supposed to be strong this season with senior D-onovan Smith returning after a 1,400-yard season. And the Tigers have run the ball quite well â&#x20AC;&#x201C; just not with Smith these last few weeks. In Fridayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 52-7 romp over Person High, sophomore Marquez Eleazer stole the spotlight. He finished with 19 carries for 147 yards and three touchdowns. Not bad for someone who was supposed to be the starting JV tailback this year.

Tigers coach Tommy Norwood explained that Smith suffered a high ankle sprain against Dudley and hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t played since that Week 2 defeat. Barry Brown, a senior who ran well in reserve last year, stepped in nicely the two following weeks and is averaging 53 yards rushing per game. But against Person, Brown began to suffer cramping in the second quarter. Welcome, Mr. Eleazer. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It ended up being Marquez and he ended up having a big night,â&#x20AC;? Norwood said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not real big â&#x20AC;&#x201C; maybe 155 pounds â&#x20AC;&#x201C; but heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s got real good quickness and real good vision.â&#x20AC;? Norwood said Smith likely will return for this weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Piedmont Triad 4A Conference opener at home against Parkland. So does that mean Eleazer can expect a return to the JV squad? â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll end up playing with three running backs at this point in time, keep fresh legs,â&#x20AC;? Norwood said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t say much, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just a pretty steady, quiet kid,â&#x20AC;? Norwood added of the rising star. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He seems to be taking it just like he would if he
was making those yards on Thursday.â&#x20AC;?
CATCH â&#x20AC;&#x2122;EM IF YOU CAN Area football fans should do all they can to watch their favorite teams this Friday. Following this weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s regular slate of games, a scheduling quirk brings just seven games on Oct. 1 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and only two of those are at home. Bye weeks are on tap for High Point Central, High Point Christian, East Davidson, Thomasville, Trinity and Wheatmore. The only area teams with home games are Andrews (vs. Lexington) and Bishop McGuinness (vs. North Raleigh Christian). Southwest Guilford visits Northwest Guilford, Ragsdale travels to East Forsyth, and Glenn heads to Parkland in a full night for the Piedmont Triad 4A Conference, while two other neighborhood battles take place: Ledford at Central Davidson and Southern Guilford at Randleman. After Oct. 1, each Friday night will feature the regular slate of 10 or 11 games. shanf@hpe.com | 888-3526

Halladay wins 20th; Phils trip Braves THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
PHILADELPHIA â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Roy Halladay became Philadelphiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first 20-game winner in 28 years, Jayson Werth hit a three-run homer and the Phillies increased their lead in the NL East to five games with their ninth straight win, 5-3 over the Atlanta Braves on Tuesday night. Halladay (20-10) allowed three runs and seven hits in seven innings to reach 20 wins for the third time in his career. Hall of Famer Steve Carlton was the last to do it for the Phillies when he won 23 in 1982. Robin Roberts, another Hall of Famer, was the last right-hander to win 20 for Philadelphia, in 1955. The two-time defending NL champions are 43-15 since July 21, when they trailed the Braves by seven games. They

NASCAR warns RCR on Bowyerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Chase-clinching Richmond car CHARLOTTE (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; NASCAR warned Richard Childress Racing that Clint Bowyerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s car came close to failing inspection after his Chase-clinching drive at Richmond. NASCAR scheduled a Tuesday meeting with RCR officials to go over the No. 33 Chevrolet and determine if the team had not made a mistake in its own calculations. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They were in the box, but getting close to some of the tolerances and we asked them to come in to see if they arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t getting off on one of their build sheets,â&#x20AC;? NASCAR vice president of competition Robin Pemberton told The Associated Press. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have had their cars in quite a bit, and they were always spoton. This one just seemed to be different, and we felt we owed it to them to make sure they just arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t off in one area.â&#x20AC;? Bowyerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s car was chosen by NASCAR for random inspection following his sixth-place finish at the Sept. 11 race. The run gave him the 12th and final spot in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship, which began Sunday in New Hampshire.
Bowyer won the opener to vault from 12th in the standings to second, and heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in the thick of the championship hunt. But as his team celebrated the victory, rival teams began to gossip about a potential problem with Bowyerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s car from the week before. NASCAR on Tuesday confirmed that once the car got back to its North Carolina research and development center, it was discovered that the back end of the Chevrolet was very close to the mandated tolerance levels. NASCAR still has the car in its possession, and wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t give it back to RCR until the team meets with the sanctioning body. But Pemberton shot down speculation that RCR was given a pass because NASCAR didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to spoil the build up to the Chase opener. Even if Bowyerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s car had failed inspection, it wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have changed the Chase field. The penalty for failed inspections runs anywhere from 50-to-100 points, and Bowyer had a 142-point cushion over Ryan Newman at the end of the Richmond race.

in the NFL right now.â&#x20AC;? Kolb missed the last six quarters because of a concussion, and Vick played well in his absence. Kolb was cleared to practice and was expected to run the first-team offense today. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Kevin is fine. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not an injury-related issue,â&#x20AC;? Reid said. Vick threw for 175 yards and one touchdown and ran for 103 yards in a 27-20 season-opening loss to Green Bay. He had 284 yards passing and two TDs in a 35-32 win at Detroit on Sunday.
SAINTSâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; BUSH HAS BROKEN FIBULA
---
NEW ORLEANS (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Reggie Bush has a broken right fibula which is not expected to be season ending, though the injury could sideline him about six weeks, a person familiar with the injury said Tuesday. The Saints had Tuesday off after returning early in the morning from their 25-22 Monday night victory at San Francisco. Saints spokesman Greg Bensel said Tuesday there were no planned updates on Bushâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s injury from the team.
Texansâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Brown receives 4-game drug suspension HOUSTON (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Houston left tackle Duane Brown was suspended for four games Tuesday for violating the NFLâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s policy on performance enhancing drugs, joining
Texans linebacker Brian Cushing on the sideline for the same offense. Brown, the Texansâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; first-round draft choice in 2008, said he would not appeal the suspension.
Falconsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Norwood out for season with knee injury ATLANTA (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The Atlanta Falcons placed backup running back Jerious Norwood on seasonending injured reserve on Tuesday because of a knee injury, forcing the team to make two moves to add depth.

NEW YORK (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; New York Jets star wide receiver Braylon Edwards told a police officer heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d been partying and drinking before being pulled over in his luxury SUV, but he suggested letting him leave the car and go home, prosecutors said as he was arraigned Tuesday on drunken-driving charges. A solemn Edwards was released without bail in a case that could compound his legal troubles while heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s on probation after a fracas in Cleveland last year. He declined to discuss the drunken-driving arrest as he left a Manhattan courthouse, thronged by reporters. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There will be plenty of time to talk. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll address everybody,â&#x20AC;? said Edwards, wearing a black T-shirt and fashionably torn gray jeans. Defense lawyer Peter M. Frankel said Edwards was exhausted and focused on getting back to his team. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Obviously, this is very difficult for him,â&#x20AC;? Frankel said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Without question, absolutely, he
understands the seriousness of the situation, and he is committed to getting back on the football field and doing what he does best for the Jets.â&#x20AC;? A breath test showed Edwards had a bloodalcohol level twice the legal limit after he was stopped on Manhattanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s West Side around 5 a.m. Tuesday, prosecutors said. Chief police spokesman Paul Browne said officers on the lookout for such violations as overly tinted windows stopped Edwards because his Land Roverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s windows were too dark and then noticed a strong smell of alcohol. Authorities said there were four other people in the SUV, and the Jets confirmed Tuesday that starting left tackle Dâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brickashaw Ferguson and defensive end Vernon Gholston were among them. Neither of those players was charged. Edwards told an officer heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d had â&#x20AC;&#x153;a couple of drinks,â&#x20AC;? the last about an hour before, assistant district attorney Alyssa Gunther said.
Steelersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; QB Dixon needs knee surgery PITTSBURGH (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The Steelersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; starting quarterback Sunday at Tampa Bay will be a player who was cut last weekend or another who was all but ignored during training camp. No matter, coach Mike Tomlin said, either Byron Leftwich or Charlie Batch will be expected to play well enough to win until Ben Roethlisberger returns from his four-game suspension. The Steelersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; once quarterback-heavy roster thinned out even more Tuesday when Dennis Dixon was lost indefinitely with a torn meniscus in his left knee. Dixon is expected to have surgery Wednesday and could go on the injured reserve list, which would end his season after two starts
â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and two victories. Dixonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s injury turned out to be more serious than suspected on Sunday, when Tomlin said he could have re-entered a 19-11 victory at Tennessee to hand the ball off if necessary. Dixon was hurt while scrambling for 21 yards late in the first quarter. He stayed in for two more plays, including an 8-yard run, then was lifted on the next possession and didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t return. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He planted his leg in the ground and cut inside, and said it felt a little unstable at that point,â&#x20AC;? Tomlin said Tuesday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Adrenaline and things of that nature, particularly when itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a nonimpact injury, it takes a while before you realize that somethingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s amiss.â&#x20AC;?

Abbott deal brings 3,000 job cuts NEW YORK (AP) — Abbott Laboratories says it will eliminate 3,000 jobs and take almost $1.3 billion in charges over the next two years as it integrates its Solvay pharmaceuticals business. The North Chicago company says it expects $810 million to $970 million in restructuring costs and $310 million in integration costs. The charges include severance costs, write-down and depreciation costs, and expenses related to the end of some research and development programs and the transfer of other programs.
Passenger advocate drops Delta lawsuit
Home construction jumps WASHINGTON (AP) — Home construction increased last month and applications for building permits also grew. The gains were driven mainly by apartment and condominium construction, not the much larger single-family homes sector. Construction of new homes and apartments rose 10.5 percent in August from a month earlier to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 598,000, the Commerce Department said Tuesday. That’s the highest level since April. Pulling the figures up was a 32 percent monthly increase in the condominium and apartment market, a small portion of the market. Single-family
homes, which represented about 73 percent of the market in August, grew more than 4 percent. Housing starts are up 25 percent from their bottom in April 2009. But they remain 74 percent below their peak in January 2006. Single-family housing starts are up 11 percent from their low point in January 2009, but down 78 percent from their peak in January 2006. Builders are struggling with weak demand for new homes caused by high unemployment and a glut of foreclosed homes on the market. They benefited in the spring from federal tax credits, but those expired in April. Paul Dales, U.S. econo-
mist with Capital Economics, said the high number of vacant homes, mounting expectations of renewed price falls and economic constraints on households will continue to weigh on the industry. “Homebuilding activity remains at an astoundingly weak level,” Dales said, adding that construction has to be more than double current levels for the market to be considered healthy. Building permit applications, a sign of future activity, grew by nearly 2 percent to an annual rate of 569,000. Lennar Corp., a major builder based in Miami, said Monday the number of buyers signing

Oil prices drop on demand worries NEW YORK (AP) — Oil prices fell on Tuesday as traders worried whether demand for energy products will strengthen as the economy continues to struggle. Benchmark oil lost $1.34 to settle at $73.52 a barrel on the last trading day for the October contract on the New York Mercantile Exchange. Many traders moved to the November contract, where the price fell $1.22 to settle at $74.97 a barrel.
ConAgra income drops on rising costs PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — ConAgra Foods Inc. reported a disappointing first quarter on Tuesday, saying intense discounting and higher costs pushed the food maker’s net income down 12 percent. The maker of Banquet, Chef Boyardee, Peter Pan and other packaged foods reported that it earned $146.4 million, or 33 cents per share, for the quarter. That’s down from $165.9 million, or 37 cents per share, in the same quarter last year. ConAgra’s revenue fell 2 percent to $2.82 billion.

AutoZone profit rises 14 percent NEW YORK (AP) — Brisk sales of do-it-yourself repair parts lifted AutoZone Inc.’s profit almost 14 percent in its fiscal fourth quarter. AutoZone and other auto parts chains have thrived during the economic downturn as penny-pinching consumers keep their cars longer, boosting sales of maintenance parts. It was the fourth straight year of double-digit growth in AutoZone’s earnings per share. The Memphis, Tenn.,
company said it opened 80 new stores during the quarter, bringing its store count to 4,627. Revenue at stores open at least a year — a key measure of performance among retailers — rose 6.7 percent. Unusually warm summer weather was a key factor in the improved results, said Alan Rifkin, analyst with Bank of America Merrill Lynch. Harsh weather often increases demand for replacement parts.
Rifkin reiterated his “Buy” rating on the company’s shares. AutoZone also announced Jim Shea, executive vice president for marketing, merchandising and supply chain, will retire at the end of October. No replacement was named. The stock fell $1.95 to $218.19 in morning trading Tuesday. AutoZone said net income rose to $268.9 million, or $5.66 per share, for the 16 weeks ended
Aug. 28, up from $236.1 million, or $4.43 per share, a year ago. The increase in earnings per share reflected not only improved financial performance but a sizable reduction in the number of shares outstanding versus a year ago. The company said it bought back 2.8 million shares during the quarter for $565 million. It said it still has $185 million allotted to repurchase additional shares.
Payday lender aims to settle suit RALEIGH (AP) — A major payday lender wants to pay nearly $19 million to settle a North Carolina lawsuit accusing it of violating state consumer finance laws. Attorneys who filed the lawsuit said Tuesday the
deal would mean checks for about 144,000 consumers who got a payday loan at Advance America or National Cash Advance in North Carolina after March 2003. After attorney fees and other expenses are paid,
consumers would divide about $12 million, for about $83 per borrower. Spartanburg, S.C.based Advance America Cash Advance Centers Inc. isn’t admitting fault in the settlement that needs approval by
a New Hanover County judge. The lawsuit claims Advance America’s short-term loans carried annual percentage rates much higher than the state limit of 36 percent.
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Federal Reserve signaled Tuesday that it’s worried about the weakness of the recovery and is ready to take further steps to boost the economy if needed. Fed officials said they are also concerned that sluggish economic growth could prevent prices from rising at a healthy rate. But at the end of its meeting, the Fed announced no new steps to try to rejuvenate the economy and drive down unemployment. Instead, it hinted that it’s prepared to see if the economy can heal on its own. The meeting is the last for the Fed’s chief policymaking group before the Nov. 2 midterm elections. It comes as voters are focused on the economy and the jobs crisis. Polls show they are likely to punish Democrats in Washington for the sluggish economy. In its statement, the Fed used the same language it did in August to sketch a downbeat view of the economy. But the Fed delivered a stronger signal that it would take new steps to lift the economy. The Fed made clear that given the economy’s weakness, it’s more concerned about prices falling than rising. It didn’t use the word deflation. But some economists have raised fears about the country sliding into a deflationary spiral. That’s a widespread drop in wages, prices of goods and services and the value of stocks and homes.
MetroPCS unveils cutting-edge network NEW YORK (AP) — MetroPCS Communications Inc., a regional cell phone company that mainly caters to low-income customers, on Tuesday became the first U.S. carrier to use a new network technology that provides faster data access and is expected to become the
industry standard. MetroPCS, which has 7.6 million subscribers, turned on Long Term Evolution, or LTE, service in Las Vegas. It’s ahead of Verizon Wireless, which has 92 million subscribers and plans to bring LTE to 25 to 30 cities later this year.
MetroPCS CEO Roger Linquist said the company aims to turn on LTE across its entire network, which is concentrated in cities, by January. To take advantage of the network, Dallas-based MetroPCS is selling the first U.S. LTE phone, the Samsung Craft, for $299.

Clorox to sell auto care business OAKLAND, Calif. – Clorox Co. will sell the division that makes car-care brands such as Armor All and STP to a private equity firm for $780 million in cash. The company announced the deal Tuesday with Avista Capital Partners. The private equity firm will get the well-known brands, sold primarily in the U.S., Australia, Canada and Europe. Clorox announced in May it was exploring options for the business, which had $300 million in sales last year – about 5 percent of total revenue.

bond auctions in Spain and Greece, the sale offered markets reassurance for the moment that Ireland and other indebted countries were getting some relief from shortterm market pressures. But analysts cautioned that Ireland had to pay higher-than-expected interest rates compared to previous bond auctions, reflecting investors’ fear of an eventual Irish default. And the higher
rates could be an additional financial burden in coming years. “Serious challenges remain ahead, but in the short term we believe that public finances are not out of control,” said Sonia Pangusion, Irish market analyst for IHS Global Insight. She said Ireland’s government had secured enough borrowing to manage its finances through mid-2011.
CEO keeps Hatteras consolidation on track MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE
NEW BERN — Jim Meyer, president and CEO of Hatteras and Cabo yachts, sees that going forward, the two boat brands will be produced in smaller quantities but manufactured more efficiently. Meyer, a 49-year-old New Bern resident, is approaching two years as president and CEO of Hatteras, a division of the Lake Forest, Ill.-based parent company Brunswick Corp. He started working in November 2008 as president and CEO of Hatteras, having previously worked as vice president of product development, supply chain and business integration for the Brunswick Boat Group. Prior to that, he worked in the automotive industry with Ford Motor Co. and with Mazda Motor Corp. He spent the first 10 years of his career at Ford, he said, where he was hired after graduation from MIT, then in 1999 went to work for Mazda. Meyer went from the automotive industry to Brunswick, where one of his principal roles was to help reinvigorate the boat brand Sealine.
Dustan E. McCoy, CEO and president of Brunswick Corp., stated in a news release that Meyer was appointed to head Hatteras after working in a leadership role with Sealine in Europe as new models and markets for new dealers of the products were being developed. He also said in the release that Meyer made “significant contributions in working to integrate the company’s entire marine product portfolio to streamline its supply chain, and improve product quality.” At the time that Meyer was appointed president and CEO of the Hatteras Collection, it was composed of three brands, Hatteras, Cabo and Albemarle, and four factories, he said. The company has looked to narrow its focus and devote resources to the Hatteras and Cabo brands, he said. The company sold the Albemarle brand that was manufactured at a plant in Edenton, closed a plant in Swansboro, and is consolidating the manufacturing operations of the Hatteras and Cabo yacht brands at the New Bern plant. The Cabo plant in Adelanto, Calif., is expected to close by the end of the year.
SC unemployment jumps to 11 percent COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) — South Carolina’s unemployment rate was up in August, a stark contrast to news earlier this week that the Great Recession officially ended more than a year ago and a sign that the state’s jobs problem isn’t entirely based on the economy. The state Department of Employment and Workforce said Tuesday that
South Carolina’s unemployment rate was up 11 percent last month, up from a revised 10.7 percent in July. Department of Workforce executive director John Finan said there were almost 50,000 open jobs around the state as of Sept. 20. The problem, he said, is matching the skills of the unemployed with the available jobs.

Fed’s inaction disappoints investors NEW YORK (AP) – Stocks got a brief bump following word that the Federal Reserve is ready to do more to help the economy, but ended mostly lower Tuesday after the central bank disappointed some investors by not taking any bold new actions. Treasury prices rallied as investors saw the Fed’s announcement as a signal that more bond purchases were on the way. The Fed said it is concerned that inflation is below levels consistent with a healthy economy and indicated that it is ready to provide “additional accommodation” to support the recovery. That would mean more purchases of Treasurys or other kinds of debt, which would keep interest rates low and hopefully encourage borrowing. “They left themselves as much room as they possibly could,” said Bill Stone, chief investment strategist at PNC Wealth Management. “In the bond world, the coast is clear for buyers.” Treasurys rose sharply after the Fed’s announcement, sending interest rates lower. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note fell sharply to 2.58 percent from 2.70 percent the day before, while its price jumped $1.03 to $100.34. The yield is a common benchmark for setting interest rates on corporate debt and mortgages.

Top eBay exec steps down SAN FRANCISCO (AP) – One of eBay’s top executives is stepping down, leaving a void in the ecommerce company’s largest division, which includes the namesake auction website. Lorrie Norrington, the president of eBay Marketplaces, is leaving for personal reasons, eBay Inc. said Tuesday. EBay
said it will look outside the company for her replacement. Norrington, 50, spent two years at the helm of marketplaces, the division that includes eBay. com and numerous other e-commerce sites. She joined eBay Inc. in 2005 when eBay bought Shopping.com, a comparisonshopping company that
had just named her CEO, for $634 million. The announcement comes at a time when San Jose-based eBay is trying to improve its flagship website to lure and retain more shoppers. In recent years, the company has tried such things as changing its search system and lowering the upfront fees it charges sellers.

‘Cook It Raw’

Wild eats serve as event’s inspiration AMY SERAFIN FOR THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
L
EVI LAPLAND, Finland – Rene Redzepi was crouched and using a sharp knife to scrape lichen from rocks. The tiny green tubes usually feed reindeer in this land above the Arctic Circle. “If animals can eat it, we can,” said Redzepi, who was among 14 of the world’s most influential chefs at a gathering in
The event marked the third time these chefs have hunted, fished and foraged together then prepared a meal while leaving the smallest possible footprint on the environment. Lapland earlier this month. The goal was to dig their hands in the soil and make a meal from whatever they could find in one of the last untouched places on Earth. Called “Cook It Raw,” the event marked the third time in just over a year that these chefs have hunted, fished and foraged together – each time in a new location – then prepared a meal while leaving the smallest possible footprint on the environment. A pair of Italians, a restaurant consultant and a food writer, first organized Cook It Raw as a prelude to the U.N. Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen last year. At that gathering they asked the chefs to prepare
dishes using little or no conventional energy, leading to memorable creations such as Redzepi’s squirming live prawns, or Massimo Bottura’s “pollution” soup, illustrating a projected future in which the oceans contain only squid and jellyfish. The group then came together again in January in Friuli Venezia Giulia, Italy, where the ingredients they used included raw venison and rare Rosa di Gorizia radicchio. This time, they flew to Helsinki from as far afield as London, New York, Sao Paulo and Tokyo, took a 14-hour train ride north, then marveled at the bounty of a land where the northern lights shimmer like an electric green cloud and the indigenous people have 90 words for snow. But civilization is taking its toll here too, with global warming driving up temperatures and foreign companies mining for gold. As the planet transforms, an increasing number of chefs are stepping out into the wild and creating food defined by a specific time and place – a way of cooking that has become the next big movement after the science projects of molecular gastronomy. One of its pioneers, Redzepi, who is from Denmark, shot to first place on Restaurant Magazine’s list of the world’s 50 best restaurants this year with his Copenhagen restaurant, Noma. In Lapland, he saw a world of gastronomic possibilities in the fuzzy mosses and mushrooms of the forest floor. For the dinner, he covered carrots with pine needles and steamed them so their essential oils impregnated the vegetables. “We are showing others how to harvest in nature, because the things you find there taste better

A plate of smoked fish soup with beetroots, mushrooms, woodsorrel, berries, brown butter, broth of mushrooms and raw lichen was prepared by chefs Inaki Aizpitarte and Petter Nilsson during “Cook It Raw,” in Lapland, Finland. The event marked the third time in just over a year that this international group of chefs have hunted, fished and foraged together in a particular location, then prepared a meal while leaving the smallest possible footprint on the environment. than anything grown,” he said. “Try one of those blueberries, then a stupid one grown in a greenhouse. Your reference point for what a blueberry tastes like has changed forever.” Superstar chef David Chang of New York’s Momofuku restaurants also participated. He was struck by the abundance of edible shoots and leaves to be found at the top of the world. “To be able to forage everywhere, it’s crazy,” he exclaimed. He created a Lapland version of Japanese dashi soup, with spruce and reindeer milk. Bottura, the highly conceptual chef of Osteria Francescana in Modena, Italy, cooked reindeer tongues sous vide for 22 hours. And he did it in his bathroom so he could check their progress throughout the night. He purposely chose a body part other chefs might discard. “Our cuisine is no longer about liking or not liking something,” he explained. “It’s about trying to influence everyday life. If I put aesthetics and ethics together, that is

Inaki Aizpitarte of Le Chateaubriand in Paris fillets a fish during “Cook It Raw.” the future of cuisine.” Brazilian chef Alex Atala flew in from Sao Paulo, where his restaurant, D.O.M., features ingredients from the Amazon, another endangered region. Outraged that hunting is illegal in most of Brazil yet deforestation is not, he has acquired 57,000 acres of rainforest in an effort to protect it. He said, “Like Rene and Massimo, my ethical awakening came from my job as a chef, searching for products in nature.” Inaki Aizpitarte and Petter Nilsson, from the wildly popular Chateaubriand and La Gazzetta restaurants in Paris, teamed up to create a dish from beginning to end, waking at dawn and fishing, cutting woodchips to smoke their catch, mixing a broth from lichen and mushrooms they gathered, garnishing it

with berries and sorrel. “It had a taste of where we had put our feet,” said Nilsson. One morning the group witnessed a reindeer slaughter, and the blood inspired several chefs. Daniel Patterson from Coi in San Francisco roasted beets in the hearth until their skins were black, then served them with a sauce of beets, blueberries and blood, a simple dish that was sweetly intense and gamey. Then pastry chef Albert Adria, who made his name alongside his brother Ferran at the Spanish restaurant elBulli, created “snow” like freshly fallen powder next to a lingonberry cocktail that was warm like blood. “If you are lost for three weeks in the wilderness here, you will eat reindeer and drink snow,” he explained.
Scientists and inspectors at the federal agencies responsible for food safety say they face political and corporate interference with their work, according to a survey released recently by the Union of Concerned Scientists, a non-partisan advocate for unbiased science in government. The survey suggests a continuation of problems that government scientists had complained about during the George W. Bush administration, despite Obama administration pledges not to let politics intrude on scientific conclusions. And it comes more than a year after the administration promised to issue new rules to protect scientific integrity. More than 1,700 scientists and inspectors at the Food and Drug Administration and the U.S. Department of Agriculture responded to the survey, which was conducted by the Center for Survey Statistics and Methodology at Iowa State University and was aimed at employees whose duties were science-specific. The survey found only a slight improvement in perception of the agencies’ approach to science under the Obama administration. “What we found is that action is needed to curtail interference in science, both political and that driven by the private sector,” said Francesca Grifo, director of the Scientific Integrity Program at the Union of Concerned Scientists. “We have two very different agencies giving very identical responses, and this suggests the need for broad reform.” The Agriculture Department, while not commenting on the survey’s findings, acknowledged a need for improvement in its food safety program.

CROSSWORD
Wednesday, Sept. 22, 2010 CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Bonnie Hunt, 49; Scott Baio, 49; Andrea Bocelli, 52; Joan Jett, 52 HAPPY BIRTHDAY: Give way to your entrepreneurial side and develop and present what you have to offer. Creativity will be the big draw this year and will lead to the changes you want for your professional, personal and financial lives. Getting in touch with people from your past who can contribute to what you are trying to do now will make your life easier and your progress faster. Your numbers are 5, 11, 19, 23, 27, 35, 41 ARIES (March 21-April 19): There will be plenty of temptations. Jumping into something or getting involved with someone without a well thought out plan will cost you financially and use up valuable time. Instead, produce something that will utilize your skills and increase your income. ★★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): It’s your participation that will lead to greater opportunities and a challenge that will enhance what you can already do. What you achieve will be directly linked to your willingness to push for what you want. ★★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Don’t trust anyone with a job you promised to do yourself. You will be held responsible and it could cost you money and your reputation. Discipline and hard work will be the only way to maintain what you have worked so hard to achieve. ★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): Start making changes you’ve been considering. Thinking about it and doing it are not the same thing. Believe in your abilities. It’s time to get serious about what you have to offer. Love is in the stars and an evening of celebration is in order. ★★★★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Your emphasis should be on enhancing your surroundings as well as your relationships. By sharing your ideas and plans, you will find a suitable partner for an endeavor you want to get off the ground. ★★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Good fortune is coming to you through the people you meet and the opportunities offered. Pull together your knowledge and your talents. A relationship will add to your success personally or professionally. ★★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Someone trying to overpower you or control your choices will stifle you. It will be important to ensure you aren’t pushed in a direction that is not beneficial to your advancement. Stick to your own plans. ★★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You have more going for you than you realize, so utilize your knowledge and experience. It’s up to you to unveil what you’ve been working on for so long. Present and promote and you will get the response you need to advance. ★★★★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Keep a lid on your thoughts. Someone you live or work with will misinterpret what you are trying to say. Problems at home will surface if you try to force unreasonable changes. Offer your help to others. ★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): If you want something, go after it. Your hard work will bring you new respect and the help needed to finish what you start. You will be the one controlling who gets what, making you popular. ★★★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Recognize why things haven’t worked out in the past and you will spare yourself future grief and upset. Focus more on what you have to offer. Life is simple, so don’t waste time making it so complex. ★★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): You have some great plans that, when completed, will change the way you live your life. There is money to be made. A partnership will lead to serious accomplishments and greater income. ★★★

I found Unlucky Louie in the lounge, enmeshed in his end-of-the-month ritual: two out of three falls with a pile of credit card bills. “My wife has so many credit cards,” Louie growled, “her purse points north.” Trying to pay off his MasterCard bill, Louie bid a skinny heart game after North’s invitational raise. West led the king of spades, East signaled with the eight (not best) and West continued with the ten. East won and shifted to the ten of clubs. Louie played the queen, but when West’s king covered, Louie had to lose a diamond and a club. Down one.
HOROSCOPE
DAILY QUESTION
HIGH SPADE
You hold: S A 8 5 2 H 8 4 D Q J 5 C 10 9 8 4. Your partner opens one spade, you raise to two spades and he bids three diamonds. What do you say?
Louie should have taken the cash. He can place West with the king of clubs; East wouldn’t signal high in spades at Trick One if he had the king of clubs. Louie should play low on East’s club shift and take the ace. Louie then draws trumps, ruffs his last spade in dummy, cashes the AK of diamonds and exits with a club. For once, his luck is in: West must win and concede a ruff-sluff and the contract.
ANSWER: Partner’s three diamonds is a try for game and asks you to pay attention to your holding in his second suit if you have a close decision. Your point count is minimum, but you have four trumps and two diamond honors. Bid four spades. Partner will make it if he has no more than K Q 9 6 3, A J 6, K 10 7 6, 3. South dealer N-S vulnerable
ONE STAR: It’s best to avoid conflicts; work behind the scenes or read a good book. Two stars: You can accomplish but don’t rely on others for help. Three stars: If you focus, you will reach your goals. Four stars: You can pretty much do as you please, a good time to start new projects. Five stars: Nothing can stop you now. Go for the gold.
