School board considers delaying stimulus spending BY DAVID NIVENS ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
GUILFORD COUNTY – School district officials could decide as early as Thursday if they want to spend $14.2 million in federal stimulus money this year. Superintendent Mo Green told the Guilford County Board of Education earlier this month that he prefers spending most or all of the money next year when the schools will face an even harder budget crunch. “We have heard that even more cuts are possible from the state,” Green said. “I don’t know what will happen. We have cut millions out of the budget in the last two years. We may not see much improvement, and there is a funding cliff ahead.” The board will meet at 5:30 p.m. Thursday in the district administrative offices in Greensboro. The district will receive about $68 million in stimulus funds over two years to save 750 full-time equivalent positions, but that allocation is scheduled to run out next year. Green said the new allocation can “replace other federal dollars and continue another year.” Green suggested spending $1 million this year to hire teachers and to work with literacy programs. “We could hire teachers to manage classroom sizes and make quality additions to the staff, if it would be beneficial,” he said. Following a decision, Green said that district leaders may have to negotiate with commissioners to spend the money and for a full county allocation of $175 million, or more. “Commissioners should be aware of what we are attempting to do,” Green said. “We need a level of dialog. It will not do any good to reduce our (county) amount any further. That would dramatically impact the level of education we can provide our children.” Board member Garth Hebert of High Point estimated that the district may have to cut as many as 1,400 employees if the district uses the allocation this year and the federal government does not provide more stimulus funds during the next two years. “This is reason enough not to spend the money now,” Hebert said. dnivens@hpe.com | 888-3626

Pest controllers see a rise in cases, calls BY PAM HAYNES ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
TRIAD – Don’t let the bed bugs bite. It’s a phrase that some have come to take literally in light of recent studies that have documented a growing presence of the blood-sucking insects in major U.S. cities. While no such reports exist for the Triad, local pest management companies say the hype about bed bugs, often created by part fear and part fact, is causing their bed bug business to grow. “We’ve seen a tremendous increase,” said Chase Hazelwood, president of High Pointbased Go-Forth Pest Management, about its bed bug sector. “It really started about two years ago. Now we have people calling all the time telling us that they think they have the bugs.” Customers will call or, on some occasions, stop by the Go-Forth office with an insect inside of a plastic bag, concerned that it is a bed bug. And sometimes, it is. Based on
recent inspections, Go-Forth and other pest management companies have seen a growing presence of the critters in High Point. “I don’t think the problem is of the epic proportions it’s sometimes made out to be, but I think that it could be,” he said. “Bed bugs are a growing problem, not just a new business avenue.” Operators of Edwards Pest Control Inc. also have dealt with bed bug infestations at local apartment complexes and some hotels. “We’ve had several apartment complexes in south High Point to have a problem with them,” said Phillip Edwards, vice president of the Trinity business. “We’ve seen an increase in cases even though we don’t advertise that we handle bed bugs.” Edwards, Hazelwood and other experts will sometimes attribute bed bug infestations to several factors. First, they’re becoming more resistant to chemical treatments. Companies that produce insecticides, including Syngen-
ta in Greensboro, always are researching new chemicals that will kill the bugs. “Bedbug testing is incorporated into the development for all new products Syngenta researchers are working on for the professional pest control market, and we are continually looking for new ways to address this problem,” company officials said in an e-mail. Global travel and imports are another factor, said Edwards. “With so many things arriving from overseas, especially furniture and clothes, there’s a risk that it’s going to become more of a problem,” he said. Regardless, calls about bed bugs are booming at the two offices. Go-Forth created positions for two bed bug specialists in the last two years, and Hazelwood said it could become a new wing of the business if the problem progresses. “There is no magic treatment or silver bullet to kill them,” he said. “But the good news is that we can get rid of them.” phaynes@hpe.com | 888-3617

Newspaper: Officials OK’d tax policy change
Investigators: Woman found dead in fiery van set blaze MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE
RALEIGH (AP) – A new policy making it harder for North Carolina residents to get refunds after inadvertently overpaying their taxes had the approval of lawyers for Gov. Beverly Perdue and Attorney General Roy Cooper, The News & Observer of Raleigh reported Sunday. A newly released document shows Perdue’s attorney and Cooper’s office approved the change in how the state handles overpayments, according to the newspaper. Cooper, Perdue’s chief legal counsel Eddie Speas and Revenue Department chief Kenneth Lay say they didn’t discuss the change with the governor. Typically, the state’s computer system flags overpayments within the three-year statute of limitations. Now the department says overpayments are not “discovered” until an employee reviews those returns. Taxpayers could be out of luck if that review doesn’t happen within three years. About 100 taxpayers have received refunds totaling $32,000 since the Revenue Department began an effort to reduce its backlog of 150,000 flagged returns, Lay said.

7-year-old hosts party for Cleveland County homeless MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE
SHELBY – The table’s surface was covered in brightly wrapped packages with festive bows. Nearby sat a chocolate cake and ice cream. What appeared to be a birthday party was actually a celebration for those of the county’s less fortunate. Seven-year-old Erin White recently used the money she won from a Cleveland County Schools poster contest to host a party Saturday for the men who stay at the homeless shelter. When the community heard of Erin’s desire to help the men, donations started coming in. Susan, Erin’s mom, said through gifts and money donations, they collected around $500 worth of items.
ACCURACY
Rayven Sicks said in his two years at the shelter, he has never experienced an effort like the one Saturday. He said it demonstrated people still care. “They do feel for us,” he said. “I feel I’m blessed that somebody would think about us like that. I told her it was God.” When the gifts had been handed out and opened, the men broke into cheers and clapping. God bless you rang out around the room. “It feels immaculate to know somebody her age has compassion,” said Eric Naman. Susan said that in each package was a plastic container with socks, toothpaste, shampoo, deodorant, a flashlight, soap, toothbrushes, floss and a $5 gift card to Sonic.

Saturday, the whole White family was at the shelter, serving ice cream and cake and chatting with the group. “Something like that, what she’s done, it’s a real blessing,” said Chris George, who has been living at the shelter for about three years. “We know that somebody does care for us.” Although Erin could have spent the $125 she won on herself, she didn’t. “I just felt God speaking to me,” Erin said earnestly, sitting at the table with the men, eating cake and chatting. “I felt He was telling me to do what I know I’m supposed to do.” Initially, she said that she resisted, “No, no, no don’t do it,” was how she described her feelings.
Georgia leader: Boring names will stop sign theft DARIEN, Ga. (AP) – A rural Georgia county is losing about 550 street signs a years to thieves and a commissioner says he has a solution: Make the names boring. McIntosh County Commissioner Mark Douglas serves a rural county about 60 miles south of Savannah. He
says signs marking Green Acres, Boone’s Farm and Mary Jane Lane are frequently stolen. He suspects that the thieves are targeting those signs because they share names with a popular TV series, a low-cost wine or, in the third case, a slang
term for marijuana. Then there’s the stolen signs for Harmony Hill. Douglas figures the thieves just like the alliteration. It’s become a costly problem. County Manager Luther Smart says the area is paying $17,000 a year to replace the signs.

It was just a shell.” Barber told a 911 operator the dogs woke him up and he “couldn’t even get the door open, then it started ...windows started popping and blasting.” Barber said he last saw Self the night before, when the couple went to bed. “We have interviewed the boyfriend several times,” Gordon said. “He has been very cooperative during the investigation.” The incident report stated Self was disabled. Deputies received assistance from the State Bureau of Investigation, Cleveland County Fire Marshal’s Office and Shelby Fire Marshal’s Office. Detectives spent nine hours that day investigating the scene. Self’s remains were sent to the medical examiner’s office in Charlotte. Detectives are waiting to review a complete autopsy report.

LA GRANGE – The apparent explosion of a La Grange meth lab late Saturday night sent four people in their 20s to one of the top burn care clinics in the state with second and third degree burns. Lenoir County deputies and N.C. Highway Patrol troopers discovered the four with 20 to 50 percent second- and third-degree burns at the site of a two-vehicle wreck near the intersection of Kennedy Home Road and U.S. 70 East. Capt. Jim Oldenburg said deputies responded to the collision while en route to receiving a 911 call of an explosion in La Grange. Authorities found the four, believed to have fled the explosion, in one vehicle “suffering from some type of burns unrelated to a wreck,� Oldenburg said. Oldenburg said the victims remain in serious condition.

Democratic Congress accomplishments are many President Obama has withstood negativity and personal attacks to usher proposals benefiting those in need through Congress. A question we should all ask is this: Does the government help us where we live? The accomplishments of the current Congress led by the Democratic majority include the following: • Extended unemployment insurance to those who have lost their jobs through no fault of their own. • Added health coverage to some 32 million Americans, including 11 million children who had none previously. A key feature to the new health care law: Most people with health problems will be helped. • Instituted significant tax breaks to small business owners and provided funds to lend to these small businesses. The Small Business Jobs Relief Act of 2010 is estimated to create 500,000 jobs. • Saved the jobs of 200,000 police, firefighters and other public employees plus 100,000 teaching jobs. • Expanded Medicaid. • Ensured that Medicare will be solvent into the future. In addition, the leadership of the Democratic Party over time has provided the American people with Social Security, Medicare, unemployment insurance, food and drug protection, aid to dependent children, medicaid, child labor safeguards, voting rights, the Civil Rights Act and the GI Bill – just to name a few. This present and past track record should be reason enough to maintain a Democratic majority in Congress in the November elections. BOB KOLLAR Greensboro

How can Thomas union even consider strike just now? I see the union at Thomas Built Buses will be voting, or maybe already has voted, to strike or not. I can’t understand how they can be even thinking about a strike. The employees there are overpaid compared to other companies that build school buses. Great insurance, sick time, vacations. They have benefits that most people dream of. There is no way that a strike makes sense. There are a lot of people out of work who would love to have a job at Thomas. I worked there, and we all had pride to tell people who we worked for then. Thomas is and always will be the best place to work, they have always taken care of their employees. So to vote on a strike is just crazy! BILL HARRIS Trinity
High Point University keeps making positive moves I was very pleased but not surprised to see that High Point University and President Nido
Qubein are not resting on their laurels with plans to grow and expand once again. I really appreciate what the university has done for community pride and the Triad’s economy. It is so nice the pick up the newspaper and read about real progress being made instead of finger-pointing divisiveness. Thanks to all the HPU staff and all those who endowed this wonderful work in progress. When the university expanded their resident campus to include the apartments on the west side of N. Centennial Street, it brought with it a lot of pedestrian traffic along that block. It would be nice if the city of High Point could lend a hand and build sidewalks along N. Centennial Street and even a walking tunnel under N. Centennial Street at College Drive. As Bob Dylan said “Your old road is rapidly aging. Please get out of the new one if you can’t lend a hand.” JIM KELLY High Point
Nonprofits should act to protest their tax status We at the Internal Revenue Service are concerned because as many as 10,900 small communitybased nonprofits in the Carolinas are in jeopardy of losing their tax-exempt status. The loss of this status could greatly impact the organizations’ charitable work and their donors’ potential tax deductions. Among the organizations that could lose their tax-exempt status are local sports associations and community support groups,
volunteer fire and ambulance associations and their auxiliaries, social clubs, educational societies, veterans groups, church-affiliated groups, groups designed to assist those with special needs and a variety of others. The organizations that are at risk failed to file the required returns for 2007, 2008 and 2009, according to IRS records. The requirement to file is the result of a tax law change that occurred in 2006. For many of these small organizations, complying with the new law may be as simple as completing a 10-minute form online. They can preserve their exempt status under a one-time relief program the IRS announced in July, but only if they file by Oct. 15. The IRS has made numerous attempts to alert these organizations, but we are concerned that many may not have gotten the word. A list of the organizations that were atrisk as of the end of July is posted at IRS.gov along with instructions on how to comply with the new law. We encourage everyone who is connected with a small nonprofit community group to make sure that their organization is aware of the law change and is in compliance before the Oct. 15 deadline. MARK W. HANSON Greensboro The writer is a spokesperson for the Internal Revenue Service office in Greensboro.

OUR MISSION
Time to move the fringes off center stage
P
erhaps now, the rest of us will have our say. If there is an overriding hope for the Oct. 30 “Rally to Restore Sanity” that “Daily Show” host Jon Stewart is holding in Washington, surely that’s it: a simple prayer that maybe the rest of us will finally be able to get a word in edgewise. The comedian’s rally – a “call to reasonableness” it says on the “Daily Show” website – promises a welcome antidote to the tide of craziness now engulfing this country. My colleague, cartoonist Jim Morin, did this great animation on The Miami Herald’s website (www.miamiherald.com/opinion). Guy sits down with the family dog to watch a little television. Out of the box spews a loud cross-talk of invective, accusation, venom, tirade and diatribe. Dog starts barking at the hateful box. A moment passes. Guy starts barking, too. It is as succinct a description as you will see of what now passes for political discourse in America. The situation has been vexing for years, but the last two summers, with their birthers and Ground Zero mosques and
death panels and town hall shouting matches and guns at rallies and rocks through windows and threats of Quran bonfires and charges of socialOPINION ism, Nazism, terrorism, and general Leonard sense of end-times Pitts bacchanal, have ■■■ been especially disheartening. Watching cable TV news – often a bad idea – one cannot escape a sense that everybody in America is yelling at everybody else. But what about the rest of us? People frame all this as a debate between political extremes, a mud fight between conservatives and liberals. I submit that it is more than that. I submit that because they are louder, more colorful, crazier, angrier, and thus, more entertaining, the fringe elements of American political thought – right, and, increasingly, left – have made themselves irresistible to the 24-hour cable and Internet megaplex which, like a shark, is always swimming in search of
its next meal. In response, that megaplex has ceded those denizens of the fringe the center stage and given them a megaphone. The result has been less a clash between ideologies than a clash between reason and its opposite, between those who are willing and able to talk a thing through, think it through, even argue it through, and those who are unwilling and unable to do so. We’re talking about people who believe what they believe “because” they believe. Their ignorance is bellicose, determined, an act of sheer will, and there is not enough reason in all the world to budge them from it. So, for example, a large minority of Americans continues to believe the president to be a Kenyan-born Muslim, despite the fact that there is not a shred of evidence to support that dumbbell theory. And they don’t care. When have the fringes ever needed evidence? That’s why they are the fringes. But what about the rest of us? What about those of us who are busy raising our kids, paying our bills, living our lives, those of us who have concerns about the future, questions about the econo-

my, maybe even disappointment with the president, but who are able to express those things logically, without reflexively screaming, invoking socialism or calling anyone Hitler? What about those of us who feel living in a civil society requires the ability to talk, compromise and reason, and that those who insist on behaving instead like a classroom full of 5-year-olds deprived of nap time whenever they don’t get their way do not deserve center stage – deserve nothing, in fact, other than a chair facing the corner. What about the rest of us? It is Jon Stewart’s contribution to rational national discourse to remember and remind us that we exist. And, that for all the media megaplex has done to confer importance upon the fringes, a large minority is still a minority. We, the rest of us, are the majority. And maybe it’s time we started acting like it. LEONARD PITTS JR., winner of the 2004 Pulitzer Prize for commentary, is a columnist for the Miami Herald. E-mail him at lpitts@miamiherald.com.

The gathering in Iraq’s mostly peaceful northern Kurdish region was far from the sites of the roadside bombings or battlefields that accounted for the vast majority of the more than 4,400 U.S. military deaths since the 2003 invasion, but it was still a powerful experience for some mothers to even step foot in Iraq.

The British aid worker and three Afghan colleagues were ambushed as they traveled in two vehicles in northeastern Kunar province.

TEHRAN, Iran (AP) – Iranian forces crossed into neighboring Iraq and killed 30 fighters from a group it says was involved in last week’s bombing of a military parade, state TV reported Sunday. Gen. Abdolrasoul Mahmoudabadi of the elite Revolutionary Guards said the “terrorists� were killed on Saturday in a clash “beyond the border� and that his forces were still in pursuit of two men who escaped the ambush. While Iran has said in the past it would target armed groups on Iraqi soil this is a rare case of it actually admitting to an attack.

The fundraising golf tournament will be held at Holly Ridge Golf Links in Archdale from 1:30 p.m. to 6 p.m. on Oct. 9. “It’s the biggest fundraiser we’ve had so far this year,” said Jade Tolles, Wheatmore High band director. “We’ve sold some stuff, but with the economy the way it is, it’s difficult to sell the traditional things that you sell.

Last year, the school
marched with Trinity’s band. “This year, we are borrowing uniforms, borrowing flags, trailers and uniforms.” said Vanlandingham, noting items have been borrowed from Trinity, East Davidson and West Davidson high schools. “Everything we can borrow, we are borrowing. At some point in time, these people are going to need their stuff, and we are going to have to give it back.” The cost to play in the tournament is $50 per person or $175 for a four-person team. The scoring and prizes will be based on captains’ choice. Other games that will be included are closest to the pin, as well as the best and worst team.

Tax agency still wading through returns RALEIGH (AP) – North Carolina’s tax agency says only a small percentage of overpayments it has discovered have actually been refunded.

FUQUAY-VARINA – Wendy and Robby Haun had to sell their home near Cary to make way for a state highway project, but the comfortable ranch house did not go to waste. It went to Builders of Hope, a pioneering Raleigh nonprofit that has found new life and new families for more than 60 discarded dwellings in the past four years. Since 1999 the Hauns had lived in the house on Green Level Road West, next door to Wendy’s childhood home. The N.C. Turnpike Authority bought both houses for the 18-mile Triangle Expressway, under construction in western Wake. After they moved in November into a bigger place
on a smaller lot a few miles away in Apex, the Hauns yearned to see their old house put to good use. “We got frustrated trying to donate things from our old house to Habitat for Humanity,” said Robby Haun, 34. “We opened the doors and told people to take anything out. They got ceiling fans and some solid wood doors. Somebody took the carpet. They got a toilet.” Builders of Hope is moved by that same recycling impulse, but the group works on a larger plane. The organization stripped the Hauns’ house – which was donated by the state – and reduced it to little more than studs and subfloor. The remainder was trucked to FuquayVarina and replanted in Consolidated Pines, a new
overpaid by almost $1 million. Lay says about 100 taxpayers whose overpayments were found within the three-year statute of limitations will get immediate refunds totaling $32,000. The department is setting aside the remaining $917,000 that are outside that three-year window to see whether legislators will change the law governing those refunds.

The gifts were $75,000 to the All American Strategic Response Force charity, benefiting scholarships for children of the 82nd Airborne Division; $75,000 to the Unit Scholarship Fund charity benefiting scholarships for children of Army special operations; $50,000 to the Airborne Scholarship

The changes come after Mecklenburg Judge Tim Smith asked for an attorney general’s opinion on the legality of court clerks entering special judgments for drivers who complete the four-hour class. Smith also asked whether it is a conflict of interest for officers to refer people to the school and to teach the classes. Smith would not discuss his concerns with the newspaper, saying he wants to wait for the opinion.
subdivision that will be filled in the next couple of years with 18 affordable “green” homes for firsttime buyers. Over the summer, the house was radically overhauled with super-efficient HVAC system and windows, foam insulation and low-flow plumbing, Energy Star appliances, air-tight siding and roofing, and a big porch and front door where the side door used to be. Builders of Hope sold the 1,350-square-foot house at cost to Shaun Cross, pastor of a small Angier church, and his wife, Melissa. Builders of Hope’s radically rehabbed homes vary in size and sell for an average of $130,000, less than half the $270,000 average price of a new home in Wake County.
Association charity benefiting scholarships for children of the 18th Airborne Corps; and $50,000 to the American Gold Star Mothers charity benefiting scholarships for children of the Fort Bragg Warrior Transition Battalion. Actual gift amounts may be larger once the funds are distributed in December. Chuck Deleot, foundation president, said he hopes to give a total of $300,000. The 2010 Patriot Honoree was John McHugh, secretary of the Army.

WITNESS TO WAR Aging vets tell tales for online generation
M
OUNT PLEASANT, S.C. (AP) – Harold Syfrett enlisted in the Navy after Pearl Harbor, later surviving a kamikaze attack and riding out a typhoon aboard the USS Yorktown. Now, almost 70 years later, he will share his story with the online generation. Syfrett, now 86, joins a dwindling number of World War II Yorktown vets on the aircraft carrier this week for a reunion. Volunteers from Witness to War, a nonprofit Web site that collects and puts combat stories of World War II vets online, will be joining the group to gather their tales. The project was started eight years ago by Atlanta businessman Tom Beaty, who got the idea visiting a graveyard. He noted the graves of vets, just listing their branch of service and the years of births and deaths. What, he wondered, did they experience? While not a veteran, Beaty, whose ancestors fought in the Civil War and the American Revolution, has long been interested in military history. “I don’t know anything about their perspective,� he said. “I’ve often thought if I had a time machine and could go back in time, it would be wonderful. One hundred years from now people will be saying the same thing about World War II if we don’t capture their stories.�

World War II Navy veteran Harold Syfrett, 86, looks out to Charleston Harbor from the deck of the aircraft carrier USS Yorktown in Mount Pleasant, S.C., Thursday. While there are other efforts to capture veterans’ stories, Witness to War focuses on combat and works to engage younger people online, Beaty said. The interviews are edited down to concise, short clips. “It’s all about how do you plug into the online generation,� Beaty said. “Our stories are all about combat. That’s kind of my interest and we think it’s going to hook in the interested young folks.� Interviews are also catalogued by category. Visitors to the Web site can click on everything from D-Day experiences, to those of prisoners of war to surviving kamikaze attacks. For Syfrett, who now lives in Ladson, S.C., the bomb from the kamikaze was one of his most harrowing experiences. It penetrated the flight deck and exploded in a fireball on

When Japan turned to suicide planes late in the war “the first question we had was, ‘When would it be our turn?’ � Syfrett recalled. “All the other ships we were operating with had been hit.� Just as memorable was riding out the typhoon during the war, the only time sailors on the Yorktown could not sit down to eat, he said. Now, when a storm threatens the South Carolina coast, Syfrett isn’t much concerned. “We’ve seen a typhoon, so

Built in just over 16 months at Newport News, Va., the Yorktown was commissioned in April 1943 and decommissioned and placed in reserve in 1970, according to the museum web site. Beaty said a World War II vet dies about every 90 seconds and by 2014 only about 1 million of the 16 million American vets will be alive. “Every time one of these guys passes away, it’s like the African proverb – a library burns,� he said.
what’s the big deal?� he laughed. Beaty said Witness to War has collected more than a thousand hours of interviews from 350 World War II vets and the program is redoubling efforts to collect interviews as more vets pass away. At the last Yorktown reunion there were only 25 World War II vets from the carrier that saw service through Vietnam. The vessel, at the Patriots Point Naval and Maritime Museum on Charleston Harbor since 1975, is the second carrier to carry
Rescuers find body of man who drowned at NC lake MOUNT HOLLY (AP) – Searchers have found the body of a man who drowned while swimming on a lake near Charlotte. The Charlotte Observer reported that the body of Samuel Do Nascimento was found Saturday. Friends
say Do Nascimento had developed a cramp while swimming in Mountain Island Lake on Friday. Rescuers searched for 10 hours before finding his body in 46 feet of water. Friends who had been on the lake with Do Nascimento said
he was from Brazil, but had lived and worked in Charlotte for about three years. Lucia-Riverbend Fire & Rescue Chief David Toomey said the primary cause of the drowning seems to have been fatigue.

Flu shots recommended for everyone this year
P.S. Dr. Wexler tells me that if you miss being vaccinated this fall, you can still get vaccinated in January or later because flu season often doesn’t peak until February. But dear readers, for my sake, PLEASE do it sooner rather than later so I won’t worry about you! Dear Abby: I’m pregnant with my first child. This will be my parents’ first grandchild and my
fiance’s parents’ fourth. My mother lives in another state and won’t be able to attend the birth, and my fiance and his father are not close. My problem is my future mother-in-law. When she asked to be present during the birth, I told her no. She became extremely upset when she found out my father will be in the room. I have nothing against my future mother-inlaw; it’s just that she’s a drama queen, and I’m not comfortable sharing such an emotional event with her. Am I wrong for allowing only one grandparent and not the other? – Mom-To-Be in Mesa, Ariz.
RICHLANDS (AP) – One firefighter has been hospitalized and three others treated for dehydration while battling a blaze in Jones County. Multiple media outlets reported that the fire had been contained Saturday. Hargett’s Crossroads fire chief Jim Pike says the area needs a good soaking rain to prevent further flare ups. The fire burned acres of land and threatened some homes. The only structure burned was a small shed.
Is your hearing current?
Dear Mom-To-Be: The birth of a first baby, while a happy event, can also be scary, challenging and traumatic. It is important that you be as relaxed and comfortable as possible. If you prefer that only your fiance and father be present, then that’s how it should be. Any witnesses should be at the invitation of the person doing the delivering, and frankly, for your future mother-in-law to have asked to be present, rather than waiting to be invited, was presumptuous.

Dear Dr. Wexler: I’m pleased to know that this year’s flu vaccine is available early, and that there is enough for everyone. Readers, because influenza is contagious one to two days before symp-
toms appear, it can be spread to others before we even know we’re infected. ADVICE That’s why it’s imporDear tant that Abby everyone ■■■be vaccinated not only for our own protection, but also for the protection of family, friends and others in the community who are vulnerable to the serious and sometimes deadly complications of influenza. The good news is, this year there is no need for a separate H1N1 shot because H1N1 protection is included in this year’s vaccine. For more information, contact your health care provider, visit the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) website at www.cdc.gov/ flu, or call the CDC Info Center at (800) 232-4636.

ear Abby: Now is the time of year your readers should get vaccinated against influenza to protect themselves and their loved ones throughout the 2010-11 flu season. This year, our nation has a new and very simple recommendation to keep our population safe: Everyone 6 months of age and older should get vaccinated! Doing it now will protect you throughout the entire flu season, which can run into the spring months. The influenza vaccine is safe – you cannot get influenza from it. In addition to getting vaccinations in doctors’ offices, people can receive them in pharmacies, supermarkets, senior centers and schools. Parents should be aware that children younger than 9 years old may need two doses. Although prevention actions like washing your hands and covering your cough help to prevent transmission of the flu virus, the BEST way to avoid spreading it to others is to be vaccinated every year. – Deborah L.

his year, Oct. 3-9 is set aside as National Fire Prevention Week to encourage us to learn about fire safety and prevention. It was established in remembrance of the great Chicago fire that occurred in 1871. More than 250 people were killed; 100,000 were left homeless, and more than 17,000 FIREHOUSE structures CHAT were destroyed. Lee The fire Knight began on ■■■Oct. 8 but did most of its damage on Oct. 9, which is why Fire Prevention Week always occurs the week including Oct. 9. Woodrow Wilson established the first Fire Prevention Day in 1922, which makes it the longest running public health and safety observance on record. As October rolls around, I will write articles on the fire prevention theme, but today I wanted to talk about practicing fire safety every day. Unfortunately it seems great tragedies are often required to alter the way people live their lives. The great Chicago fire is just one example of a devastating fire that was used to encourage people to learn about fire safety and prevention. Hopefully we can learn from our mistakes and reduce the number of fire deaths that occur every year. I believe the observance of Fire Prevention Week is important, but what would happen if everyone made fire safety a priority in our lives every day? How many lives would be saved if every home was protected by working smoke detectors? How many lives would be saved if every family had a fire escape plan and actually practiced it? In the United States approximately 2,600 people die in fires each year, with four out of five deaths occurring in the home. This doesn’t include the 100-plus firefighters who die each year fighting these fires. What if each of us made every day Fire Prevention Day? Would we really make a noticeable difference? I personally believe the answer is a resounding “yes.� Think about the possibilities. The life you save may be a family member or your own. During October, we’ll talk about the many important issues associated with Fire Prevention Week. More importantly, I hope everyone realizes the importance of fire safety and makes it a priority every day. 24/7/365: You call; we respond.

Post-shingles period painful
D
ear Dr. Donohue: I’ve been trying to deal with shingles pain for six months. At times it’s so bad that I can’t sleep. I have tried Tylenol, Aleve and Advil, and some herbals that my wife bought. Nothing works. Can you tell me what will? How did I get it? Will the shingles vaccine take away the pain? – R.M.
BLONDIE
Shingles comes from the awakened chickenpox virus that has been hibernating in nerve cells ever since the childhood infection. Even if you can’t remember having had chickenpox, odds are you did. More than 90 percent of adults – in fact, close to 99 percent – have evidence of a prior chickenpox infection in their blood. Once the shingles rash goes, pain continues to remain in a significant number of people. That’s not shingles. It’s called postherpetic neuralgia. When the chickenpox virus crept down nerves to your skin, it injured the nerves. That’s what causes lingering pain long after the shingles rash has disappeared. Plenty of medicines can quiet that pain. You have to experiment to find which works for you. Lyrica is a somewhat newer addition to these medicines. You need a prescription for it. Capsaicin cream, gel or lotion is found on the shelves of all drugstores. You apply it directly to the painful skin. Qutenza

is a new preparation of capsaicin. It’s applied by your doctor or a health HEALTH professional in a Dr. Paul one-hour Donohue treatment, ■■■ and is touted to provide three months of pain relief. The lidocaine patch is another skinapplied treatment that quiets pain. Amitriptyline and Cymbalta, both antidepressants, are oral medicines that can dull postherpetic pain. Opioids like tramadol and oxycodone can be turned to when others fail. And this is just an abbreviated inventory of treatments. The shingles vaccine doesn’t do a thing for postherpetic neuralgia; it cuts the chances of developing shingles in half. And if a vaccinated person does develop shingles, it lessens the chances of postherpetic neuralgia. It’s recommended for everyone 60 and older. Dear Dr. Donohue: Will you discuss the eating of canned tuna? I enjoy a tuna-salad sandwich once in a while. But I read that the mercury in tuna is harmful, especially to expectant mothers and small children, and to adults in general. I also read that light tuna is less toxic than white albacore tuna. Will you clarify this? – D.R.
Shark, swordfish, king mackerel and tilefish are the fish with the highest mercury concentrations. Seafood that is low in mercury and quite safe includes shrimp, canned light tuna, salmon and catfish. Albacore (white) tuna has more mercury than canned light tuna, but it’s OK to eat 6 ounces of it once a week. Eating a tuna-salad sandwich, whichever the source of tuna, once in a while (once a week) isn’t going to cause any health problems. Dear Dr. Donohue: I have weak kidneys due to type 1 diabetes. My doctor has me eating three fruits a day and four vegetables. He limited my meat to 6 ounces daily. Does this limitation of meat benefit my kidneys? – E.L. Many times, when the kidneys aren’t working up to par (weak kidneys), doctors put their patients on a reducedprotein diet. It slows the decline of kidney function. That’s why your doctor limited your meat (protein) intake. Dear Dr. Donohue: Is Prozac addicting? Can you take it for life? – D.L. Prozac isn’t addicting, but the drug should be stopped gradually rather than abruptly. People with recurring bouts of depression can take it for extended periods of time.

Local doctor says most patients off diabetes drug before FDA ruling BY JIMMY TOMLIN ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
H
IGH POINT – Avandia may have made national headlines last week, but the news likely won’t have any impact on local patients who take the controversial diabetes drug. “Almost everybody has already been taken off of Avandia anyway,” said Dr. Roger Smith of Cornerstone Endocrinology. “We might have maybe five or 10 patients in my whole practice who are still on it.” And those patients take Avandia by choice, despite concerns raised about the drug increasing their risk of serious heart problems, including heart attack and stroke. On Thursday, the Food and Drug Administration – citing studies that suggest the increased risk – restricted Avandia’s use to patients with Smith type 2 diabetes who are unable to control their illness with other medications. “If someone needs it because they can’t tolerate other medications, it’s still available for those patients,” Smith explained. Smith said most of his patients control their blood-sugar levels with Actos, a drug similar to Avandia that has not been shown to increase patients’ risk of heart disease. “Both of them (Avandia and Actos) were popular drugs, because they worked fairly well at lowering blood sugar with no real

The FDA ruled that patients taking Avandia must acknowledge they have been told of its risks.
side effects that we knew of,” Smith said. That changed in 2007, though, with the publication of a Cleveland Clinic study that showed a 43-percent increase in heart attacks for patients taking Avandia. Subsequent studies have produced similar results, according to Smith, which ultimately led to the FDA’s decision last week. FDA Commissioner Margaret Hamburg said the agency took the action “to protect patients, after a careful effort to weigh benefits and risks. We are seeking to strike the right balance to support clinical care.”
The approximately 600,000 Americans taking Avandia can continue to take it, the FDA ruled, but they must acknowledge they have been told and understand the risks involved. “The patients in our practice (who still take Avandia) have already been counseled,” Smith said. According to Smith, those patients decided the benefits of Avandia outweighed the risks. “They either have known side effects to the other treatments available, or the other treatment options don’t sound appealing to the patient, or the other treatments just
don’t work for them,” he said. According to Smith, some of his patients taking Avandia prior to the controversy suffered heart attacks, but he doesn’t necessarily attribute that to Avandia. “The problem is that people with diabetes are inherently at risk for heart attacks anyway, so how would you know?” he said. “I’ve had patients that had heart attacks in the last 10 years, but whether their risk increased because they took Avandia or not, who knows?” jtomlin@hpe.com | 888-3579
Know proper steps to lessen risk of SIDS
I
have a very sad job sometimes. As a nurse for the Guilford County Department of Public Health, one of my roles is that of Lead SIDS Counselor. When I see an obituary or learn that an infant has died suddenly and unexpectedly, I call doctors, medical examiners and detectives to find out how the baby may have died. If the cause of death is not detected by autopsy, we suspect that SIDS may have struck again. SIDS, formally known as Sudden Infant Death Syndrome and sometimes called crib death, is the sudden and unexpected death of an infant under 12 months of age, which can’t be explained by medical history, autopsy or investigation. It can happen at any time with any baby but is more prevalent in the winter months and more common in boys, premature infants and the African-American population.
North Carolina, like most states, has a SIDS program to address the needs and grief of families who have suffered a possible SIDS FOR THE death. Once I think a baby may have HEALTH died from SIDS, OF IT I notify our state office. A letter of Betsy sympathy and a Wilcox packet of SIDS ■■■ information are sent to the parents. Then I, or one of my SIDS counselor co-workers, make arrangements to visit the family. One thing all SIDS families have in common is that they have been blind-sided by the unexpected death of an infant who seemed healthy, happy and very much alive just the day before. As I listen to parents and grandparents talk about their infants,
I am drawn into the family circle of grief. I might admire photos, share some of the SIDS information, cry a little, pray a little, but mostly I just listen. Families ask me, “Why?” and I don’t know why; no one does. Researchers are learning more about SIDS every year, and each sad death contributes a little more information. But we still don’t know exactly why SIDS occurs. While SIDS doesn’t seem to be totally “preventable,” there are some easy things that can be done to reduce the risk of SIDS occurring. Since October is fast approaching and is SIDS Awareness Month, it seems like a good time to remind people of the following guidelines: • Always place a baby on his back to sleep in his own bed. Remember, “Stomach to play, back to sleep.” • Keep the crib or bassinet free of stuffed animals, pillows, bumper pads and wedges. Use a
YOUR COMMUNITY. YOUR NEWSPAPER.
firm mattress with a tight-fitting sheet, never a sofa or waterbed. • Don’t overheat the baby. Keep the bedroom temperature between 68 and 72 degrees. A wearable blanket sleeper is safer than a blanket or quilt. • Never smoke around any baby, EVER. • Breastfeeding as well as pacifier use can reduce the risk of SIDS. Luckily I have not had to wear my SIDS counselor hat too often this year. But any family that has lost a baby to SIDS can tell you that if we lose even one baby, it’s one too many.

Randolph Hospital will again host QuitSmart, the smoking cessation program, to area residents who wish to stop using cigarettes and tobacco products. This three-part series will be held on Oct. 5, 19 and 26 at 6:30 p.m. at Randolph Hospital. The classes will be held in the conference room of the Home Health Building at 341 N. Fayetteville St., Asheboro (across from the main hospital campus). During the classes, participants will learn several proven techniques to ease off nicotine, as well as decide if they need medication and ultimately break the habit of smoking. While many smokers try to quit cold turkey, using willpower alone to stop, the QuitSmart system has smokers quit “warm chicken.” Nicotine addiction is reduced gradually by switching each week to cigarettes at 40 to 50 percent less nicotine. After two weeks, with much of the nicotine out of the body, the smoker will be able to quit much easier. To overcome psychological dependence on cigarettes, QuitSmart teaches positive thinking (similar to reinforcement strategies used by successful athletes), decision-firming techniques and hypnosis. The classes are free and funded through a grant from the Randolph Hospital Community Health Foundation. For more information or to register, call (336) 629-8836.

But he covered the queen of trumps with his king.” Cy took the ace, cashed two high spades and, with nothing better to do, led a fourth spade. When dummy followed, Ed scored his ten of trumps for the setting trick.

CROSSWORD
Monday, Sept. 27, 2010 CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Avril Lavigne, 26; Gwyneth Paltrow, 38; Tamara Taylor, 40; Meat Loaf, 63 HAPPY BIRTHDAY: Don’t dwell on the negative when positive input will bring the best results. Be creative and insightful when working with others and they will help you to reach your goals. Look past any little pitfalls and strive for perfection. Discipline will pay off. Your numbers are 7, 18, 22, 27, 31, 36, 40 ARIES (March 21-April 19): Give everything you’ve got to how you earn and spend your money. The financial goals you set now will make the difference in how you live in the future. Look at longterm investments, not fast cash deals. ★★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You stand a much better chance of getting what you want if you take people by surprise. Love, partnerships and traveling to meet with people in your life who count will all lead to getting ahead personally or professionally. ★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Don’t get trapped in someone else’s dilemma. Put your hard work and dedication into something that will benefit you and help you reach your goals. Watch out for emotional manipulation. ★★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): If you waste time telling everyone what your plans are, you will not reach your goals. Criticism can be expected from someone older or dependent on you. Do not put up with negativity. Love is in a high cycle. ★★★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Before you give in to someone’s demands, consider alternatives that will ensure you put an end to such occurrences. Talks about travel or learning will give you a greater sense of what you are capable of doing and how to go about it. Problems with a partner are apparent. ★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): There is nothing too difficult if you are willing to take the steps necessary. Success is within reach but not if you don’t put forth an effort. Plan each move you make with precision, dedication and loyalty and it will pay off. ★★★★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You may feel at odds about what you should be doing and what you can do. Rethink your strategy. The changes you make at home will have the greatest impact, even if you face opposition initially. Change is long overdue. ★★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Don’t dismiss what’s being offered or an opportunity to network and take part in industry events. You have more to contribute than you realize. Once you get started, the outcome will alter your future in a positive and creative way. ★★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Focus on what you do best and offer what you can to those in need. A change at home may be upsetting at first but it will be to your benefit to accept the alterations being made. Turn a new beginning into an adventure. ★★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Recognize and support the people you love and care for the most. It’s your strong belief in your own abilities that can help you encourage others to give an optimum performance. You have the drive and determination to increase others’ enthusiasm. ★★★★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Take a good look at your current situation and you will come up with a plan that will help you budget your finances better and make your life a little easier. Don’t spend money trying to impress someone you want to get to know better. ★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Love is in the stars and getting together with someone you care for will lead to a greater understanding and a much better future. Making changes to your home to accommodate a new lifestyle is important. Combining several elements into one will bring you the highest reward. ★★★★

BRIDGE “What do you get,” Cy the Cynic asked me, “when you cross a pair of rabbits with a lollipop?” I said I wouldn’t hazard a guess. “Why, a sucker born every minute,” the Cynic chortled. Cy was exultant after watching Ed, my club’s best player, hornswoggle a good declarer out of a vulnerable game. (Ed was East; Cy was West and would have been less happy had he been South.) Against four hearts, Cy led the king of spades, and South took the ace, ruffed his queen of clubs in dummy and led a trump. Ed knew that South had no minor-suit losers; the defense needed two spades and two trumps. So Ed played the queen!
HOROSCOPE
Douglas and Stone’s 1987 hit “Wall Street” did not quite set off a bull market at the box office. The Warner Bros. animated adventure “Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga’Hoole” was No. 2 with a soft opening of $16.3 million. It finished barely ahead of the $16 million haul for Warner’s “The Town,” the Ben Affleck heist drama.
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.

Stumblin’, bumblin’, fumblin’ BY GREER SMITH ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER
CHARLOTTE – Maintaining a couple of averages, the Carolina Panthers remained below par again Sunday. Not getting the spark that coach John Fox desired with the switch to rookie Jimmy Clausen as starting quarterback, the Panthers again scored one touchdown and hit their 2010 average of four turnovers in falling to Cincinnati 20-7 before a rain-soaked crowd at half-full Bank of America Stadium. The bright spot came in the third quarter. Clausen directed a 75-yard drive that ended in a 1-yard touchdown plunge by Jonathan Stewart that pulled the Panthers within 10-7 and actually gave them a chance. But Clausen squandered two scoring opportunities in the first quarter with a fumbled snap from center and an interception on the way to a 0 passer rating at the break. The Panthers lost two more fumbles, one on a bad handoff late in the second quarter and the other a drop by Stewart at the Carolina 42 early in the fourth quarter. Cincinnati scored an insurance touchdown on a 7yard pass from Carson Palmer to Cedric Benson two plays later, accounting for what proved to be the final margin as the Panthers dropped to 0-3 and the Bengals improved to 2-1. The continued offensive woes left coach John Fox saying it was too early to say if Clausen will start next week at New Orleans. “We have a lot of work to do on that side of the ball, not just the quarterback position,” Fox said. Carolina managed just 50 yards in the first half but went more to the pass in the second half and finished with 267. Clausen wound up 16 of 33 with the interception for 188 yards and a passer rating of 53.6, while the Panthers got just 87 yards out of their rushing game. “When we made this change, I did mention that it wasn’t one guy,” Fox said. “I’m not sure that I think any differently today.” After the Bengals’ final score, Clausen failed to convert on fourth down at the Cincinnati 40 on one drive and at the 17 on another. “At the end of the day, a loss is a

Carolina endured rough handling conditions against Cincinnati on Sunday. In top photo, quarterback Jimmy Clausen (2) loses the ball after a poor exchange from center in the first quarter. The Bengals recovered. In bottom photo, Panthers’ running back Jonathan Stewart (28) fumbles after a hit by the Bengals’ Dhani Jones. Cincinnati also recovered that miscue, one of four Carolina turnovers in a sloppy 20-7 loss.
loss,” Clausen said of his performance. “We have to go back and watch the tape, see the things that we did right and correct the things we did wrong.” Clausen said a wet ball contributed to his first fumbled snap, which came a play after DeAngelo Williams sprinted 26 yards to the Bengals 25. He took responsibility for the interception that killed another scoring opportunity when he threw behind Steve
Smith at the Cincy 21, a play after Charles Godfey picked Carson Palmer and returned it 38 yards. “There were probably some positives that we will see when we watch the game tape,” Clausen said. “It’s hard to say there were positives because we lost.” The Panthers intercepted Palmer twice, but also dropped four prime opportunities for picks. Palmer finished 19-of 37 for 195 yards as the Panthers limited the
effectiveness of receivers Chad Ochocinco and Terrell Owens. Both had four catches, none for more than 17 yards. “When you have opportunities, you have to make plays,” Fox said. We made a couple of plays and missed some opportunities. We’re not in the position of being able to score 28 points, so we have to take advantage of the opportunities.” gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3556
the series trophy and celebrating another championship after the finale. “Yes, today was a big victory and hopefully a step toward the championship,” Johnson said, “but it’s not the prize we want.” Johnson has owned Dover the last two years, winning for the third time in four races on the mile concrete oval. He shook off a rare poor finish in last week’s Chase opener at New Hampshire to turn the fastest qualifying lap, cruise to the checkered flag and shoot to second in the points standings. Johnson has few better tracks to jump-start his championship
run than Dover with six career wins and 12 top-10 finishes in 18 races. He was sensational in the No. 48 Chevrolet here in May until a rare pit road mistake put him in 16th place. Chase drivers filled five of the top-six spots. Jeff Burton was second, Kurt Busch was fourth, Carl Edwards fifth and Kyle Busch sixth. Joey Logano spoiled the sweep with a second-place finish. Burton said no one should ever count out Johnson. Danny Hamlin kept his points lead with a ninth-place finish. He holds a 35-point advantage over Johnson heading into next week’s race at Kansas Speedway.
The points leader after Dover has never gone on to win the championship since the Chase’s inception in 2004. Hamlin’s points lead is the largest for any driver after the second Chase race. Chase drivers were scattered throughout the results. Jeff Gordon was 11th, and Harvick 15th. Matt Kenseth battled a cut tire to finish 18th and Greg Biffle was 19th. Stewart was 21st. Title hopes are grim for Stewart (10th place, 162 points out) and Kenseth (11th place, 165 points out). Johnson led a race-high 191 laps and was greeted by smiling owner Rick Hendrick in Victory Lane.
ead coach John Fox didn’t see any improvement in his Carolina Panthers on Sunday. The offense was absolutely dreadful behind rookie quarterback Jimmy Clausen in the first half, but showed a little life in the second. “It was like we were just slow in the first half,” rookie receiver Brandon LaFell said. “We played a little faster and adjusted to the speed of the game in the second half.” The poor showing came against a Bengals team that did not look playoff caliber and was ripe for the picking, literally, as quarterback Carson Palmer had trouble all day hitting his receivers. “We aren’t as good as we want to be, or as

High Point University student Austin Dillon raced to his second NASCAR Trucks Series victory of the year, leading the final 35 laps late Saturday night at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. Dillon, the 20year-old grandson of longtime NASCAR owner Richard Childress, led 93 of 146 laps on the 1.5-mile tri-oval. Dillon regained the lead from James Buescher on the 112th lap and finished 5.588 seconds ahead of defending race champion Johnny Sauter. Buescher was third, followed by series leader Todd Bodine, Matt Crafton, Aric Almirola, Brian Ickler, Justin Lofton, Ricky Carmichael and Ken Schrader. Bodine increased his lead over Almirola to 262 points with five races left. Dillon became the youngest winner in all three national NASCAR series at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. The victory also helped him in the Rookie of the Year race, which he is currently leading. “This one was cool because I never saw the track before,” Dillon said.

Johnson maintains Dover dominance DOVER, Del. (AP) – Jimmie Johnson had it all. He won the pole, dominated again to win at Dover International Speedway, and even held his baby daughter in his arms in Victory Lane for the first time. He called it a dream weekend. Yet, it wasn’t enough for the four-time Cup champion. Not even close. Johnson let the field know his bid for a fifth straight title is alive and thriving by winning the second race of the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship on Sunday for his sixth victory of the season. He won’t be truly happy with the result until he’s hoisting

we will be, but we are working at it,” Bengals coach Marvin Lewis said. The Panthers have a lot of work to do as they go with two quarterbacks with a total of eight starts and try to find a No. 2 receiver to complement Steve Smith. Clausen looked as if he were still at Notre Dame in the first half as he was unable to find receivers at an NFL pace. Helped by the Panthers opening up their offense, he got more into the flow in the second half, engineering one touchdown drive and getting the Panthers into Bengal territory twice more. He was unable to get the ball to Smith until the fourth quarter. Smith, at times showing his frustration at not getting the ball, wound
up with three catches for 22 yards. “I’m just going to run my routes,” Smith said. “They tell me to run a dig and I’m going to run a dig. That’s what I’m going to do,” Smith did not put all of the offensive woes on Clausen, however. “I don’t think it’s fair to blame Jimmy or (former starting QB) Matt Moore,” Smith said. “I don’t think it’s fair to blame me or David Gettis (another receiver). There are a lot of people involved in this thing.” If the Panthers don’t come up with a lot of improvement in the next week. the woes could stretch to an 0-4 record with a trip to New Orleans slated next Sunday.

NEW ORLEANS â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Matt Bryant did what Garrett Hartley could not, drilling a 46-yard field goal with 1:55 left in overtime to lift the Atlanta Falcons to a 27-24 victory over the New Orleans Saints on Sunday. The Saints appeared to have a thrilling victory in hand when Drew Brees drove New Orleans deep into Falcons territory to set up a 29yard field goal in overtime. Instead, Hartley hooked the kick to the left for his third miss this season.
Wolf Pack, Wolfpack crack AP Top 25 NEW YORK (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The only previous time Nevada was ranked in the AP Top 25, the Wolf Pack ended the season playing in the Harbor Bowl in San Diego. That was 1948. It took 62 years, but Nevada is back in The Associated Press poll. The Wolf Pack were No. 25 in the poll released Sunday and are off to a 4-0 start for the first time since 1991, the year before they jumped from I-AA to I-A. The first month of the season closed with the preseason top three in the rankings unchanged: Alabama is No. 1, followed by Ohio State and Boise State. No. 23 N.C. State (4-0), off to its best start since 2002, was the other Wolfpack to move into the poll this week. N.C. State is ranked for the first time since 2003.

Cain flirts with Giant no-hitter DENVER (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Matt Cain carried a no-hitter into the eighth inning, pitching the San Francisco Giants past the fading Colorado Rockies 4-2 on Sunday and back into first place in the NL West. San Francisco moved a half-game ahead of San Diego,1 which lost 12-2 to Cincinnati. The Rockies fell 4 â &#x201E;2 games behind the Giants and four back of the Padres in the wild-card race.

The twotime defending NL champions came in needing a win and a loss by Atlanta to secure the division crown. The Braves lost 4-2 to Washington, dropping Philadelphiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s magic number to one.

Expert: Computer worm targets ‘high-value’ sites WASHINGTON (AP) – A powerful computer code attacking industrial facilities around the world, but mainly in Iran, probably was created by experts working for a country or a well-funded private group, according to an analysis by a leading computer security company. The malicious code, called Stuxnet, was designed to go after several “high-value targets,” said Liam O Murchu, manager of security response operations at Symantec Corp. But both O Murchu and U.S. government experts say there’s no proof it was developed to target nuclear plants in
Siemens AG, which designed the systems targeted by the worm, said it has infected 15 of the targeted industrial plants, which include water filtration, oil delivery, electrical and nuclear plants. Iran, despite recent speculation from some researchers. Creating the malicious code required a team of as many as five to 10 highly educated and well-funded hackers. Government experts and outside analysts say they haven’t been able
to determine who developed it or why. The malware has infected as many as 45,000 computer systems around the world. Siemens AG, the company that designed the system targeted by the worm, said it has infected 15 of the in-
dustrial control plants it was apparently intended to infiltrate. It’s not clear what sites were infected, but they could include water filtration, oil delivery, electrical and nuclear plants. None of those infections has adversely affected the industrial systems, according to Siemens. U.S. officials said last month that the Stuxnet was the first malicious computer code specifically created to take over systems that control the inner workings of industrial plants. The Energy Department has warned that a successful attack against critical control systems
“may result in catastrophic physical or property damage and loss.” Symantec’s analysis of the code, O Murchu said, shows that nearly 60 percent of the computers infected with Stuxnet are in Iran. An additional 18 percent are in Indonesia. Less than 2 percent are in the U.S. “This would not be easy for a normal group to put together,” said O Murchu. He said “it was either a well-funded private entity” or it “was a government agency or state sponsored project” created by people familiar with industrial control systems.

Hyundai has voluntarily recalled the 2011 Sonata sedan, seen here at the Los Angeles Auto Show in Los Angeles, due to problems with the steering system.
Hyundai recalls more than 100,000 Sonatas sedans in US WASHINGTON (AP) – Hyundai Motor Co. said it is voluntarily recalling 139,500 Sonata sedans in the U.S. because of a manufacturing defect that could cause drivers to lose steering control. The recall affects 2011 models built between Dec. 11, 2009 and Sept. 10, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration noted on its website Sunday. Some of the cars have steering column shafts with connections that
may not have been tightened enough or were improperly assembled. As a result, the steering wheel could become separated from the column or a driver could lose the ability to properly steer the car. The U.S. government had opened an investigation into possible steering problems in the vehicle in August. Hyundai, South Korea’s top automaker, has said there have been no related injuries or crashes reported.
Owners of affected vehicles can go to their dealers for inspection. Dealers also will update power steering software. Owners may also call NHTSA at 888-327-4236 for more information. The recall comes as automakers ramp up their focus on safety and quality control in the wake of Toyota Motor Corp.’s massive global recall last year over gas pedal and floor mat problems. In February, Hyundai an-
nounced a recall of about 47,000 Sonata midsize sedans, mostly sold in South Korea, to replace front door latches following a handful of customer complaints. The company said it had discovered a mechanical problem with the latches which, in rare instances, would not close properly. Earlier this month, Hyundai affiliate Kia Motors said Chung Sungeun resigned as vice chairman following a
global recall of more than 100,000 vehicles due to defective wiring. Of that total, 35,185 vehicles were recalled in the United States. Together, Kia and Hyundai form the world’s fifth-largest automotive group. So far this year, U.S. sales are up 17 percent for Hyundai Motor America, though August sales fell 11 percent from a yearearlier record sparked by federal Cash for Clunkers rebates.
MOSCOW (AP) – Lukoil, Russia’s secondlargest oil company, and investors led by UniCredit SpA have spent nearly $2.4 billion to buy 5 percent of Lukoil shares from U.S. oil company ConocoPhillips – half the amount allowed in an option that expired Saturday. Lukoil bought 42.5 million, or 5 percent, of its own American Depository Receipts as part of a strategy to raise shareholder returns through a share buyback from the market, the Moscow- based company said in a statement on Sunday. Lukoil’s president, Leonid Fedun, said in the statement that the buyback “allows us to support our share prices, since the transaction is funded by the group’s internal resources, without increasing the company’s total debt.” Houston-based ConocoPhillips said in July that the option, which allowed for the purchase of 98.7 million shares (11.6 percent), was valued at $56 a share. The U.S. company is selling Lukoil shares to raise cash to pay back debts and buy back its own shares.
Crosland has found ‘relative stabilization,’ CEO says MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE
What does an executive do when a large chunk of his or her company’s cash flow suddenly shrinks by two-thirds? That’s what Crosland’s new CEO, Stephen Mauldin, has spent the past 16 months figuring out. The real estate company relies on what it calls a “recycling of capital,” where it develops projects and then sells a portion of its assets. But when the financial markets crashed in 2008, financing and buyers dried up. Since then, the company has put
DILBERT
two projects into bankruptcy protection to avoid foreclosure, sold a Raleigh apartment complex at a premium and announced a change in leadership. In an interview with the Observer, Mauldin and his predecessor, former CEO Todd Mansfield, talked about how the company coped during one of the deepest real estate recessions on record. Mansfield, who led the company for 11 years, announced his resignation Friday. Mansfield was the first outsider tapped to head the family-run company, started by John Crosland Sr. in 1937. During the past two years, Charlotte-based Crosland went from
generating a reliable $50 million to $80 million annually in free cash flow in the mid-2000s to between $10 million and $30 million. Mauldin said he believes history will show 2009 to be one of the worst for developers. “I couldn’t have estimated the depth of this,” Mansfield said. “It caught me a bit flat-footed, and at times it felt like death by a thousand cuts.” Crosland has reached “a spot of relative stabilization,” Mauldin said. The real estate company has 29 lenders, two to three of which provide about 70 percent of Crosland’s debt.
Lawmakers target China with currency bill WASHINGTON (AP) – A bill that would give the U.S. government the power to impose economic sanctions on China and other countries found to be manipulating their currencies to gain trade advantages has won approval from a key House committee.
The Ways and Means Committee approved the legislation Friday and Democratic leaders said the measure would be taken up by the full House next week. Supporters say the bill would protect U.S. jobs
against unfair trade competition at a time of high unemployment. The measure was expected to win easy House passage, although trade analysts said it was unlikely to be taken up in the Senate this year.

Bishop Eddie Long (right) embraces a friend at New Birth Missionary Baptist Church on Sunday in Atlanta. Long, the pastor accused of luring young men into sexual relationships, has told his congregation of thousands that all people must face painful and distasteful situations.
Jacksonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wife: â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;My heart will healâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; after affair were sleepless nights and I started losing hair and I told him I would only consider staying if we got into therapy.â&#x20AC;? She said she immediately questioned herself and whether it was her fault, but she never wanted details. When word of the affair became public last week, she said it was like opening the wound again. She said there are people who have had far worse situations. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Mine is a matter of the heart,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For many itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a matter of survival. My heart will heal.â&#x20AC;?
LITHONIA, Ga. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The famed pastor of a Georgia megachurch said Sunday that he will fight allegations that he lured young men into sexual relationships, stressing that heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be back to lead the church the next week. Addressing a New Birth Missionary Baptist Church sanctuary packed with thousands, Bishop Eddie Long neither discussed specifics of the lawsuits filed against him nor flatly denied the accusations. But he drew thunderous applause when he addressed his flock publicly for the first time since the first lawsuits were filed several days ago. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There have been allegations and attacks made on me. I have never in my life portrayed myself as a perfect man. But I am not
the man thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s being portrayed on the television. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not me. That is not me,â&#x20AC;? he said as applause interrupted him during the first of two services Sunday morning. Four young men have filed lawsuits in the past week â&#x20AC;&#x201C; three who live in Georgia and one from Charlotte, who attended one of Longâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s satellite churches there. Two claim they were members of the churchâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s LongFellows Youth Academy, a program that taught teens about sexual and financial discipline, when Long gave them gifts and took them on trips to seduce them. Long has been named as a defendant in the lawsuits, which claim the pastor abused his â&#x20AC;&#x153;spiritual authority.â&#x20AC;?
