Garbage fees still up in air BY PAT KIMBROUGH ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

Inside...

HIGH POINT – The revenue at stake may not be all that significant in the great scheme of things, but a proposed city fee has generated plenty of discussion. At issue is how to implement a monthly charge for businesses, churches, nonprofits and other non-residential city garbage customers. The City Council’s Public Services Committee is weighing options that include $6 monthly charges for some customers and fees of up to $25 per cart for others. Some council members said

----

City still trying to decide how to collect fee. 1B they would like to take action on the fees soon. The council’s initial goal was to include them in the city’s 2010-11 budget, which took effect July 1, but the decision was delayed because of confusion about how the fees should be applied. “We’ve kind of beaten this horse to death,” said Councilwoman Bernita Sims. “We’re already behind the eight ball on this. It

should have happened in July. I don’t think we need to push it out to another budget cycle.” The city considered imposing a $6 monthly residential garbage collection fee in the budget, but officials eliminated the idea after hearing feedback that it would impose a burden on financially strapped residents. “How badly do we need the garbage-fee-collection revenue to supplement the existing budget? I guess that’s the bottom line,” Councilman Latimer Alexander said. Projections are that the fees would raise about $60,000, a relatively small amount considering

that the city budget totals well over $300 million. Downtown businesses that have their garbage picked up four days per week would see the biggest impact. One option the committee is considering would hit them with a monthly fee of $25 per cart, although that doesn’t appear to be the most favored approach. Officials said the city’s ultimate goal is to end the four-day-a-week pickups, which have traditionally been offered at no additional charge for downtown customers that are in and around the High Point Market district.

HIGH POINT – It’s hard to find a feature in the rugs sold at Zaki Oriental Rugs that isn’t unique. Crafted by weavers in places like India and Pakistan, the rugs are hand-knotted and contain anywhere from hundreds to thousands of knots per square inch. From their patterns to their colors and craftsmanship, they’re of the uppermost quality, said store owner Zaki Khalifa. But a batch of rugs that Khalifa ordered in the spring is proving to be particularly special. A native of Pakistan, Khalifa travels about four times a year to countries famous for producing Oriental rugs to select new product for his showroom. He visited Pakistan in April, when he said purchased “an unusually large number of rugs” because the production of high quality rugs has diminished in recent years. “I wasn’t going on a buying spree, but I selected more rugs than usual because of this,” he said about the shortage. “No one was anticipating the floods that were coming.” Khalifa made arrangements for about 3,000 rugs to be shipped to his High

Point store, and they arrived in increments in May and June – just before major floods ravaged Pakistan in July and August. The floods destroyed more than 20 million homes, the United Nations estimates, in areas where Khalifa regularly made purchases from weavers. Not only did the floods worsen the shortage of high quality rugs, it also devastated numerous weavers, who often work six days a week for low to moderate wages that are paid by a group of commissioning entrepreneurs, Khalifa said. “There were many looms that had rugs partially finished that were washed away by the floods,” he said. “These rugs can take years to make. Many families have been affected.” He said he was devastated to hear about the flood damage in his homeland, but he’s glad he purchased the collection of rugs from Pakistan to have in his store. They may be the last batch of high-quality rugs to come out of the country for quite a while, he said. Now Khalifa, who donated the store’s former building to the High Point Chamber of Commerce, said he’ll use his philanthropic spirit to help those

HIGH POINT – A north High Point transportation project on the drawing board for several years is about to turn a corner. City officials initially hoped to start construction about a year ago on the extension of W. Hartley Drive, which currently ends at the Hartley Drive Family YMCA, to Westover Drive at its intersection with Shadow Valley Road in Davidson County. A lengthy environmental permitting process and other factors have delayed the project, but the city is almost ready to solicit con-

struction bids. The city has nearly acquired the last permit needed – for erosion control measures during construction – and is close to acquiring the necessary rights of way and easements. Once this is wrapped up and contractors bid on the project, the City Council will be asked to give final approval. “We’re so close. It’s one of those light-at-the-end-of-the-tunnel moments,” said Keith Pugh, the city’s director of Engineering Services. City officials said the extension, which will total a little more than a mile, is needed to complete a key piece of High Point’s trans-

portation network. It should take some traffic pressure off Westover Drive, one of the main routes from northeast Davidson County and its many residential developments. Westover Drive is essentially a residential street that isn’t designed for through traffic, which the new W. Hartley Drive will be able to accommodate because it will be four lanes in most spots, Pugh said. It’s also designed to facilitate better access to east and south High Point by tying in with the College Drive corridor, linking traffic from Hartley at N. Main Street to S. Main Street at W. Market Center Drive.

YOUR COMMUNITY. YOUR NEWSPAPER.

The extension, which has an estimated construction cost of around $8.5 million, was one of six major road projects approved by city voters in a 2004 bond referendum. Money for construction is available through the bond proceeds. Engineering design work for the project started in 2006. The project will entail construction of a bridge from just west of the YMCA through a wooded, low-lying area that includes a creek. The route will cross Ingleside Drive before connecting with Westover Drive. Construction should take around 18 months. pkimbrough@hpe.com | 888-3531

Thomasville business leaders seek public input

Gov. Perdue: Flood damage similar to Floyd

65th class reunion

ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

THOMASVILLE – The Thomasville Area Chamber of Commerce is leading the effort to engage all residents and businesses of Thomasville for the creation of a new Community Vision and Strategic Program. According to the chamber, many residents have expressed a desire to see the Thomasville community grow and prosper. Community leadership has responded by coordinating an effort to develop a clear vision for the future of the Thomasville area. The chamber is seeking help in this process by asking residents to log onto www.thomasvillechamber.net by Oct. 24 and select the “Take the Thomasville Community Survey” link. Residents also can attend one of two community engagement sessions to share their vision for community issues. Those sessions will be at 7 p.m. Nov. 30 at the Ball Park Road Community Center, 7003 Ball Park Road or 10 a.m. Dec. 1 at Jarrett Hall/Memorial United Methodist Church, 101 Randolph St. Drawings for $250 cash will be held at each of the community engagement sessions and among survey participants.

As North Carolina Gov. Beverly Perdue toured the state’s flood damaged coastal areas Sunday, she said they were a stark reminder of 1999’s Hurricane Floyd. Some of the places that were inundated then were flooded again this time around. “You see people’s houses and their cars, and everything they own probably, nearly or totally devastated,” she said in a telephone interview from Vanceboro, where a light rain fell Sunday. She said she had been in Windsor about a month ago to see the progress made on rebuilding that downtown in the past decade. “They were so pleased and so excited about the fact that their businesses had bounced back after Floyd,” she said. “And now about half of them have been devastated again.” The Carolinas were drenched last week by a storm that crept up the East Coast, dropping record amounts of precipitation in some places and being blamed for multiple deaths in traffic accidents on rain-slick roads.

Ferndale Middle among Guilford schools gaining enrollment BY DAVID NIVENS ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

GUILFORD COUNTY – Ferndale Middle School was one of several county district schools gaining enrollment this fall, according to the latest count. The High Point school was a growth leader with about 100 more students attending on the twentieth day. Overall, school district leaders were not far off their estimates for 2010-11 enrollment. Guilford County Schools enrollment on Sept. 22 was up 389 students from last year, and 88 more students enrolled than expected. On Sept. 22, 71,853 students were enrolled while the district had projected a population of 71,765 students. The count is important because

it is the first estimate used to distribute school resources, including additional teachers. The projection, which district staff finalized in February, was within one-thousandth of the actual number on the 20th day, or 0.12 percent of 1 percent of the actual enrollment. The state’s acceptable standard for enrollment projections is 0.5 percent of 1 percent. Last year, a total of 71,464 students were enrolled on the 20th day. State funding is based on the 40th-day school membership. The district gained 206 students between the 10th and 20th day of school.

homes in Windsor were damaged, Perdue said. “Some of the small business owners were there today and were saying, ‘Well this is the second time’ and they actually didn’t know if they were going to stay,” she said. Roy Stocks, a 76-yearold service station owner, says he likely will rebuild, just like he did after the nearby Cashie River flooded his place in 1999. “We’ve done it once before, we’ll do it again,” he said. His previous cleanup cost him more than $70,000 because he didn’t have flood insurance‚ and he still doesn’t. This time, he estimated the water was about three feet deep at its peak inside his convenience store at Roy’s Service Center, but it was hard to tell. “It didn’t leave a mark like it did last time, but I guess it didn’t stay around as long,” he said. The water was no longer in his store Sunday, but it remained in his car repair shop. Perdue said she hopes those who do rebuild will take this opportunity to try to elevate their homes and businesses so they won’t face similar destruction in the future.

Here’s what the Democrats have ‘accomplished’ This is in answer to the Sept. 27 letter (Bob Kollar, “Democratic accomplishments are many”) on Democratic accomplishments. Obama promised change. This is what we have gotten: • Tremendous debt. Red ink up to the taxpayers’ eyeballs. • More welfare – one in every six people gets government assistance. This number will increase drastically with Obamacare. • More regulations on almost everything. • More taxes for businesses, us, our children and grandchildren. • More wasteful spending on non-essentials. • More government and government intervention into our lives. • More corruption. Pelosi’s draining the swamp will never happen.. • More money to unions with the ruse of saving jobs. They need more taxpayer money to pay promised pensions. They now have $400 billion in unfunded pensions. They also have a bigger Ponzi scheme than Social Security and it will soon collapse under its own weight. Now the federal government has sent Guilford County $23 million in taxpayer money for bonuses, while many people are unemployed. Why is this a priority? We need to tighten our belts and do with what we have! Obama’s Trojan horse has arrived – while Americans slept. Movements like ACORN have mobilized people “en masse” to make demands on the government that cannot be financially met, thus it will collapse the whole system. This will provide conditions for more radical change and the American dream of getting ahead or owning your own business will be a thing of the past. To know where Obama is coming from – read Forbes Magazine issue for Sept. 27 or Dinesh D’Souza’s book, “The Roots of Obama’s Rage,” soon to be released. Pray for our Republic.

Westchester Country Day to host on campus the 14th annual fall food drive (originally called CANstruction) to benefit the Open Door Ministries of High Point. This is the event that uses food cans and boxes like building blocks to create images of vehicles, furniture, planes, buildings, etc. The images are briefly exhibited, and then the food is donated to the food bank. Supported by a generous check from the Greek organizations and several contributions from Rotarians, the students picked out a wide range of quality food items based on size, color, cost and value for their images. Other HPU students brought donation items of their own that were included into the images, and the art department of Westchester Country Day brought in an additional 650 pounds of food for their entry. Our best estimate is that more than two tons of food was collected for this year’s project. That is quite an achievement for their first try. Thanks HPU for your support! JOHN K. ANDERSON High Point

many years and known him to be a hardworking and fair individual who is always aware of his responsibility. He never shirks it. With Barnes it’s never about politics. As he says, he “works for everybody.” I have been to dinner with him and his wife and watched as he took the time to help citizens who came to the table to ask him a question. I asked him once if that bothered him or if he resented the interruption, and he responded, “No, that’s my job. I would me more upset if I couldn’t help them.” I have been on vacation with him and watched him keep in touch with the office by phone and computer. Knowing that he has good people working for him, he still wanted to make sure that everything was all right. Barnes is not only my friend, but a friend to everyone in Guilford County. He cares about the citizens, he cares about the prisoners in our jail, and he loves

his job. He is the kind of sheriff that’s making a difference. Let’s keep him in office. NANCY B. HOWARD Greensboro

Fighting breast cancer: If not now, when?

I

am trudging through a drizzling rain when I come across this wooden footbridge I’ve never seen before. Well, that’s not exactly true. I’ve driven this stretch of road a thousand times to the doctor’s office, the mall. So surely I’ve seen this bridge a thousand times, too. But obviously, I saw it in the way you sometimes see things when you’re driving past at 45 miles an hour, which is to say, not really. Your focus is the destination, not the journey. But walking is different, slower. And this early morning, deep into an 18-mile hike, I find myself noticing things I’ve never really noticed before. A lake not quite visible from the road. A sidewalk curving gracefully beneath an overhang of trees. And this wooden footbridge over a small, shrub-filled hollow. It is your fault I am out here on a miserable Saturday morning when even the sun is sleeping in. Back in April, I used this space to announce my participation in the Washington, D.C., leg of the annual Susan G. Komen 3-Day For The Cure, a 60-mile, threeday walk to raise money against breast cancer. I don’t do bake

sales, so I’d hoped a few of you would sponsor me and I figured I’d contribute whatever more was necessary to reach the mandatory $2,300 minimum. Six months and almost 500 donations later, my tally stands north of $27,000. You guys

are amazing. And motivating. When I first started this, I was spurred by a fear that, come the big day, I would end up bent double after the first couple of miles, gasping and wheezing while some 82-yearold lady with a walker stumped by, yelling, “Quit hoggin’ the road, sonny!” Now my greatest fear is of returning to this space to tell people who donated 27 large in my name that I couldn’t close the deal. Which is why, every spare moment, I’m training like Rocky. The walk will be Oct. 8-10. As it happens, the day after is my 53rd birthday. That doesn’t qualify me for the senior discount at IHOP, but it does mean I am of an age

to contemplate some of the grand sweep of this life. Lately, I have this theory that we live in three great arcs. The first 25 years are for coming of age, figuring out who you are, getting an education, starting a career. The next 25 are for rat racing, raising your kids, paying a mortgage, building a life. But from 50 until ... that’s for having some fun, for trying something new, for being of service, and for doing some of those things you always said you’d do, someday. As I said, it’s a theory. But sometimes life is like driving a car. You are so focused on the destination that you keep getting to places without realizing how you got there. When did my youngest child become a woman? How is it that high school will soon be 40 years past? And what happened to those things I said I’d do, someday? I always said someday I’d walk to raise money against breast cancer in honor of my mom, who died of the disease in 1988. That’s an easy thing to say. Not so easy to do. Each year, I found perfectly logical, rational reasons to talk

myself out of it, not least of which is the fact that I am more sedentary than your average boulder. I’d have to be crazy to think of walking 60 miles. And the truth is, I probably never would have done it, except that one day, I just did: I snuck up on myself, signed up without giving myself a chance to talk me out of it. Now myself is wondering if I’ve lost my mind. Myself keeps reminding me that we don’t do things like this. But you know, you get tired of getting places and wondering how you did. Life is an act of will. Life is conscious decisions, including the decision that maybe “someday” has waited long enough. And life is an understanding: We’re all going to the same destination. The only difference is in what you choose to see along the way. LEONARD PITTS JR., winner of the 2004 Pulitzer Prize for commentary, is a columnist for the Miami Herald.

NATO supply route hit again in Pakistan

AP

Pakistani firefighters struggle to extinguish burning oil tankers after militants attacked a terminal in Rawalpindi, Pakistan, early today. Police say suspected militants have attacked and set on fire at least 20 oil tankers in Pakistan that were en route to NATO and U.S. troops in Afghanistan.

CAIRO (AP) – Egypt backed the Palestinians’ refusal to negotiate with Israel as long as it continues to build West Bank settlements, even as officials urged Sunday for continued diplomacy to salvage the month-old talks. Washington’s Mideast envoy met with Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak to discuss the impasse ahead of an Arab League meeting this week at which the Palestinians are expected to deliver a final decision on whether to continue with talks following Israel’s decision a

week ago to allow a curb on settlement building to expire. George Mitchell then traveled to Jordan where he is expected to meet with King Abdullah II. Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas says there is no point negotiating as long as settlements are eating up the land the Palestinians want for a future state. On Saturday, senior Palestinian officials backed Abbas’s refusal and said they are now considering alternatives to the direct negotiations if Israel doesn’t budge.

Police officer Umer Hayat said three people were killed and blamed today’s attack on “terrorists.� The attackers opened fire on trucks that were parked at a poorly guarded terminal before setting them afire, he and other officers said. They were waiting to travel to the Torkham border crossing along the fabled Khyber Pass.

Sunni: Iraq facing ‘last chance’ for democracy

MOSUL, Iraq – An Iraqi governor and leading Sunni politician said Sunday that the nation’s “last chance for democracy� could be derailed if the Shiite prime minister keeps his job despite losing to a Sunni-backed coalition in elections seven months ago. Ninevah provincial Gov. Atheel al-Nujaifi’s warnings show the serious challenges to U.S.-led efforts at bringing Iraq’s rival groups together in a unity government.

Green: Core budget cuts near BY DAVID NIVENS ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – After years of budget cuts, mostly what remains now for Guilford County school district leaders is a core of services that could be threatened by even larger cuts, Superintendent Mo Green warned school district officials Saturday. The 2011 school district budget took a $38.4 million cut. But there are fears that the next round of state cuts for 2012 could be as high as 15 percent, or $55 million. “When you get to these

numbers, you are looking at core cuts,” Green told Board of Education members attending a retreat. “It becomes difficult now to limit the impact on personnel.” Nationwide, federal stimulus money has reduced the blow to local budgets. Most of the school district’s first round of federal stimulus money will be spent next year. The $68 million in stimulus funds will save 750 full-time equivalent positions. The next round of $14.2 million from the Education Jobs Fund will go into the 2012 budget.

BUDGET

–

Cuts: The Guilford County Board of Education approved a $652 million 2011 budget that included $20.7 million in state cuts absorbed in 2009-10 and an additional $17.7 million.

“We may have to cut staff and benefits,” said board member Garth Hebert of High Point. “There is nothing else left. If you are looking at a 10 percent cut ($37 million), nothing should be sacred.”

“This is tough,” Green said. “You seem to be willing to put some different things on the table.” During summer budget negotiations, the board held back on imposing furloughs and salary cuts. The board also pays $15 million in annual salary supplements. “We control the supplement,” said board member Nancy Routh. “A cut would spread the impact. We are at a point now that nothing we do will be popular.” Green said the board may have to review mag-

net school and busing spending for savings. “We should be thoughtful about this,” said Board Chairman Alan Duncan. “We don’t know where the funding will end up.” Board member Jeff Belton suggested sponsoring a public forum to let taxpayers know how deeper cuts could impact the 2012 budget. “The public needs time to get the idea of this,” Belton said. “This is an unprecedented amount of money.” dnivens@hpe.com | 888-3626

vying against two nearby, larger competitors – Raleigh-Durham International Airport and Charlotte/ Douglas International Airport. “We need more service to more locations and cheaper fares,” Baker said. “It’s difficult, but I believe this market will support a low-cost carrier. The battle that we are in is being able to provide enough low-cost service to keep the people here.” He said the specific goals that he sets will be formed in collaboration with airport staff and Piedmont Triad Airport Authority. But he adds, “I just see an awful lot of potential for this airport and this region.”

HIGH POINT – City Council members are choosing how to implement non-residential solid waste fees from a list of options. The City Council’s Public Services Committee appeared to be leaning toward an option that would impose a $25 fee for customers that get enhanced garbage collection services in the downtown district and a $6 monthly fee for non-residential customers. The city would pick up no more than two garbage carts per address under this option. The city also could pick up additional carts in the downtown area for an extra charge. Once the committee issues a recommendation, the full council will consider action to adopt the fees. Most of the approximately 4,000 non-residential addresses in the city pay for solid waste collection through private haulers. One reason the city is considering the new fees is to make the cost of collection more equitable between city garbage customers, who have historically faced no extra fee for the service, and those that pay for the service. All but about 40 downtown customers have indicated they want to maintain their enhanced garbage service. Many of these are small businesses and churches that don’t need a Dumpster. Council members said some downtown customers that have multiple garbage toters have limited options because they don’t have room for a Dumpster on their property. City Manager Strib Boynton has suggested the council make the fees effective Jan. 1 or April 1. “If we tell a business they’ve got 90 days to go to a Dumpster, are we going to require that it have a pad and that it be screened?” said Councilman Latimer Alexander. The new fees are coming about as the Public Services department institutes several changes designed to streamline solid waste collection and save money, including the use of automated trash pickups, which requires a fraction of the personnel previously employed. “We’ve made pretty substantial cuts and cut 24 jobs there,” Boynton said.

New airport chief wants to address flights, fares BY PAUL B. JOHNSON ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

GREENSBORO – If Kevin Baker had stronger eyesight when he was younger, he probably wouldn’t have become the new top executive at Piedmont Triad International Airport. Baker, 44, grew up in Pittsburgh admiring his older brother, Norm, who served as an Air Force pilot. But Baker’s eyesight wasn’t good enough when he was teenager to qualify him as a pilot or even a navigator. So Baker took his love of aviation and channeled it in a different direction. First he became an aviation consultant, then an airport administrator. “I’ve been a plane junkie all my life,” Baker said while seated in a small conference room at the PTIA administrative office. He didn’t fully realize it at the time, but the trajectory of his life changed 12 years ago. That’s when Baker came to the Triad to serve as a consultant for the FedEx Corp. cargo hub and related airport expansion. Three years ago, he took the job of assistant airport director, having become fond of his work at PTIA and life in the Triad. On Friday, Baker officially succeeded Ted Johnson as executive director. Johnson, 70, announced in late August that he would retire after 42 years of service at PTIA, in-

Donald Paul Carroll

Mary Clodfelter

MADISON – Donald Paul Carroll, age 70, died unexpectedly Saturday, October 2nd, at his home. A native of Guilford County, Mr. Carroll was born August 31, 1940 in High Point.

GOP fundraiser under investigation ASHEVILLE (AP) – A North Carolina elections official says she is investigating whether a Sept. 11 Republican fundraiser in Asheville broke the law. Deputy director of campaign finance Kim Strach told The Asheville Citizen-Times for a story Sunday that Buncombe County GOP Chairman Chad Nesbitt asked for an opinion on the event that raised $300. The event was held at the Swannanoa Fire Department on the anniversary of the 2001 terrorist attacks and drew criticism for being at a public facility and for saying the money would be used to fight “socialistic terrorism.� Strach says campaign finance law doesn’t prohibit holding events at public places as long as the party is charged the same rent other organizations would be charged. The fire chief says they don’t charge rent for use of the facility.

Senate candidates find common ground RALEIGH (AP) – The candidates for U.S. Senate in North Carolina don’t agree on much, but in interviews with The Associated Press, they concur that with persistent high unemployment and lingering uncertainty about the economy, voters haven’t stopped worrying and struggling. “It’s the American people that feel it day in and day out,� Republican U.S. Sen. Richard Burr said. “You can’t judge it on whether Wall Street’s up or Wall Street’s down.� “People just see the American dream slipping through their fingers,� said the Democratic challenger, North Carolina Secretary of State Elaine Marshall. Added Libertarian Michael Beitler: “We’ve got to do something to get people hiring again.� The three differ, however, on prescriptions to restore consumer and business confidence and spur an economic recovery. Burr said it will take stable or even lower federal tax rates and less government spending to get businesses growing again. Marshall favors targeted incentives such as the small business package approved this fall, ending incentives to create jobs overseas and letting tax cuts expire on the highest wager earners. Beitler mostly sides with Burr on taxes but suggests replacing the income tax with a national sales tax.

Wife of Singapore founder dies at 89 SINGAPORE (AP) – Kwa Geok Choo, the wife of Singapore’s founding father, Lee Kuan Yew, who described her as his “tower of strength,� and mother of the citystate’s current prime minister, died Saturday. She was 89. Kwa suffered a stroke and brain hemorrhage in 2008 and had been bedridden and unable to speak since then. Kwa “passed away peacefully at home,� the Prime Minister’s Office said in a state-

ment. It did not specify the cause of death. Lee Kuan Yew, who is 87, stepped down as prime minister in 1990 but continues to wield influence in his son’s Cabinet under the title of minister mentor. He is also in frail health and was hospitalized Wednesday with a chest infection.

Collision with ambulance leaves 2 dead NEWBERRY, S.C. (AP) – Two women have died and five people were injured after their car collided with an ambulance in Newberry County. Highway Patrol Lance Cpl. Bryan McDougald

told The State newspaper of Columbia that the women died Friday night. They were 22 and 23 years old and had addresses in Germany. Their names were withheld until family

members could be notified. McDougald says three people in the car and the ambulance’s two medical workers were injured in the crash and taken to a local hospital. The ambulance was

Woman swims around Charleston CHARLESTON, S.C. (AP) – She swam the English Channel and crossed the Strait of Gibraltar from Spain to Morocco. Now 47-year-old endurance swimmer Kathleen Wilson of James Island has completed a 16.2-mile swim around Charleston. The Post and Courier

of Charleston reported that Wilson made the swim Saturday in six hours, 58 minutes. She went in just before daybreak at the James B. Edwards Bridge over the Wando River, swam through Charleston Harbor and up the Ashley River to the Gen. William B. Westmoreland Bridge.

Three friends in kayaks guided her around the Charleston peninsula as she defied wind, choppy waters and an uncooperative tide. Yet Wilson finished an hour earlier than she expected on her trek, which she hopes can bring attention to the city as a location for distance swimming competitions.

Woman worries because her man avoids her family

ear Abby: I have been with my fiance, “Joe,� for seven years. My problem is that he refuses invitations from my family to events and leaves me to go solo. Before the end of the year, there will be a baptism in which I am the godmother, as well as three weddings. Joe says he won’t attend any of them. He claims he’s not interested in the baptism of our niece because he’s not religious. He’s declining the wedding invitations because he doesn’t know the people well. He uses work as an excuse. Although he is required to work on weekends, it still infuriates me. It’s humiliating going to these family events alone, while people ask why Joe isn’t there. I could give the “work� excuse, but I’m sure they’ll find it hard to swallow that he can never get off. I’m worried that when we’re married my family won’t show up because he pulls this. I have told him if he doesn’t change I will need to reconsider our relationship. Giving me a few days out of the year shouldn’t be a big deal. Am I right to be angry? – Socially Obligated in Pennsylvania Dear Socially Obligated: After tolerating

this for seven years, you are only now getting upset about it? Your fianADVICE ce may feel awkward Dear in social Abby situations, ■■■which is why he avoids them. If the reason for your anger is you’re afraid your family won’t attend your special events, stop worrying. Because you are attending theirs, they will reciprocate. However, because your fiance is as socially withdrawn as he appears to be, they will never get to know him. What a shame. Dear Abby: A young family member, “Missy,� age 18, has been doing nude centerfolds for almost a year. Her mother signed the approval paperwork for her because Missy was still 17 at the time of the first photo shoot. Since then, there have been many more photos and nude videos. Missy’s grandparents practically raised her and don’t know about what she’s doing. The rest of the family is aware of it. Her mother says it’s Missy’s responsibility to tell her

grandparents. The rest of the family would prefer the mother tell them. We all realize we have been part of this conspiracy. When our parents find out and realize that everyone else knew, they will feel betrayed. I’m afraid this will tear the family apart. Missy has shared all this with her high school friends and others, so it may just be a matter of time before the grandparents hear about it. Is there a way to keep the family from falling apart over this? – Covered Up in The Deep South Dear Covered Up: Once more than one person knows a secret, it’s no longer a secret. When the inevitable happens, keep the hysteria to a minimum. While her grandparents may have preferred that Missy get ahead by using her brains, this doesn’t have to be the end of the world. Look at it this way: One person who posed for a nude centerfold is now a U.S. senator. And that’s a fact.

his year’s theme for fire prevention week is “Smoke Alarms, A Sound You Can Live With.� It focuses on the importance of smoke detectors as well as the importance of maintaining detectors. It is important to realize that without early detection, chances of escape decrease regardless of the time spent practicing home escape plans. Detectors are reasonably priced so it makes sense to have them FIREHOUSE in homes. CHAT Not having smoke deLee tectors in Knight your home ■■■endangers you and your family. Properly installed smoke detectors are the first line of defense against fire. Smoke detectors should be installed on every level of your home, including the basement. They should be mounted outside every sleeping area. New homes are required to have smoke detectors in every sleeping area, with all detectors interconnected so they will activate when anyone of the detectors goes into alarm. Detectors should be mounted on the ceiling or high on walls because smoke rises. Detectors mounted on the ceiling should be 4 inches from the wall, and wall-mounted detectors should be mounted 4-12 inches from the ceiling. Never paint smoke detectors or put other decorations around them. This could keep the detector from working. It’s also important to maintain the smoke detectors after installation. Detectors should be tested every month to assure they’re in working order. Replace batteries when you reset your clocks in the spring and fall or when the alarm chirps, warning that the battery is low. Resist the temptation to take the battery out of a detector to install somewhere else. It’s easy to forget to replace batteries, and your detector is useless if it doesn’t operate. It’s important to remember that smoke detectors do not last forever. It’s recommended that smoke detectors be replaced at least every 10 years. Since the use of smoke detectors became commonplace, fire deaths in this country have dropped in half. They are the single most important thing you can have to protect your family. Make sure you have adequate smoke detectors in your home and make sure they work. Your life depends on it. 24/7/365: You call; we respond.

Friend: Grandfather killed in fire told son to save kids first ATLANTA (AP) – A friend says an 80-year-old grandfather has died in a DeKalb County blaze after he urged his son to save his grandchildren first. Assistant Fire Chief Norman Augustin told WSB-TV that the fire began Sunday around 8:10 a.m. in a home where a large family lived. He said the victim was trapped in the burning home and died.

Traffic moves down a street as a billboard showing Bishop Eddie Long is seen in Atlanta. The billboard near an Atlanta highway reads, “Love Like Him, Live Like Him, Lead Like Him.� The motto refers to Jesus Christ, but the smiling face next to it is that of Bishop Eddie Long.

Pastor says he won’t be pulled into ‘street fight’ LITHONIA, Ga. (AP) – A megachurch pastor accused of luring four young men into sexual relationships said Sunday that he won’t be pulled into a street fight over the allegations and vowed that his faith has been strengthened. Bishop Eddie Long did not directly mention the accusations to thousands of cheering supporters during services at New Birth Missionary Baptist Church. But his remarks seemed directly addressed to his accusers. “In times of challenge, there are several things that come out. Your faith will be strengthened or weakened,� he said, to growing applause. “My faith is being strengthened.�

Long told supporters at the church that he is “not going to be pulled into a street fight� and that he doesn’t hate anyone. But he directed his listeners to turn to a passage in the Book of Job that read: “Those who hate you will be clothed with shame, and the tent of the wicked will be no more.� As his devoted flock cheered, Long joked that he accidentally led them to the wrong page. “That was the Holy Ghost,� he said, flashing a smile as the sanctuary echoed with laughter. Long’s more than hour-long sermon was greeted with thunderous applause and adoration. Several thousand parishioners flocked to the sub-

Australian collector Clinton Kempnich returned the tag after finding it among a box full of items from a friend who had been a diver in the South Pacific.

RICHMOND, Va. (AP) – The U.S. Geological Survey says a minor earthquake has hit Virginia. Dale Grant, a geophysicist with the USGS, said the magnitude 3.0 earthquake happened at 4:17 p.m. Saturday. He said there were no reports of injuries or damages. The USGS said on its website the quake was felt in Virginia cities including Richmond and Charlottesville and as far as 339 miles away in Canton in western North Carolina.

Family friend Arthur Cooper said that when the fire started, the victim’s son tried to whisk the 80-year-old to safety. Instead, the grandfather pushed his son out of the room and told his son to save his grandchildren. When the son returned, flames had overtaken the room and he was forced to jump from a window. The victim’s name was not immediately released.

Sudden muscle weakness is often not a stroke

ear Dr. Donohue: My problem at 80 years of age is Bell’s palsy on the left side of my face. I cannot blink. My cheek and the corner of my mouth on the left side droop. What caused this? Will I get control of my face back? – D.S.

BLONDIE

Most people who develop Bell’s palsy assume that they have had a stroke. The facial muscles on one side suddenly go limp. The eyelid on the affected side cannot close. The corner of the mouth droops so greatly that saliva and chewed food dribble out of it. Taste on the front part of the tongue is lost. From beneath the forehead, the involved side of the face smoothes out. The nerve that controls facial muscles has been short-circuited. The culprit is a virus – the same virus that causes cold sores, although no cold sore breaks out with Bell’s palsy. At one time, antiviral medicines were prescribed for this condition. They have been shown not to be all that effective, so they are not much used these days. Cortisone medicines given in the early phases can shorten the course of this infection. You should regain control of your facial muscles. Nearly 70 percent of those affected

do, and the recovery takes around one month. In a few more weeks or HEALTH months, another Dr. Paul 15 percent Donohue have full ■■■ use of their facial muscles. For a few, the time to recovery is longer. For a very few, persistent weakness of the muscles remains. For the present, you have to protect your eye, especially at night. During the day, frequent, even hourly, application of artificial tears is necessary to keep the eye from drying out. Wearing wrap-around glasses also helps. At night, an ointment should be used in the eye, and the eye should be covered with an eye patch. For completeness’ sake (this doesn’t apply to you, D.S.), Bell’s palsy is sometimes the consequence of another illness, like Lyme disease, shingles or a tumor. Dear Dr. Donohue: I am worried about my grandson. He drinks too much. Is someone who drinks every day an alcoholic? He is 35, divorced and without children. He lives with me. Every day after work, he consumes at least three drinks. It’s

the same on weekends. – W.G. Alcoholism often is defined by the degree to which drinking interferes with the way one leads a productive life. When drinking causes people to fail to perform their job; when drinking is hazardous to health, like being a threat to the liver; when it leads to social problems (divorce) or legal problems (drunk driving), then such people are alcoholics. One drink a day is safe for women, and two for men. One drink is 12 ounces of beer, 5 ounces of wine or 1.5 ounces of 80-proof liquor. The four CAGE questions identify alcoholism. They are: 1. Do you feel a need to Cut down on your alcohol intake? 2. Are you Annoyed by people criticizing your drinking? 3. Do you feel Guilty about your drinking? 4. Do you need an Eye-opener, a drink first thing in the morning to steady your nerves and face the day? A yes answer to two or more of these questions indicates alcoholism. DR. DONOHUE regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but he will incorporate them in his column whenever possible.

Christmas in October High Point Country Club raises holiday spirit early, hosts program by Charles Dickens scholar Elliot Engel BY JIMMY TOMLIN ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

H

IGH POINT – Christmas in October? Bah, humbug! Unless, that is, you’re a fan of Charles Dickens, in which case the High Point Country Club is the place to be Wednesday, when delightfully entertaining Dickens scholar Elliot Engel will present a Dickens of a Christmas program about the famous author. “I’m going to put them in the Christmas spirit in early October,” says Engel, a former English professor who lives in Raleigh. “Dickens is my first love, and I’m going to show them that since Dickens wrote ‘A Christmas Carol’ in 1843, we have changed how we celebrate Christmas because of him.” Engel’s presentation, titled “Dickens and Christmas,” is open only to members of the Lit-

Following the presentation, however, he will have a public signing of his book, “A Christmas Carol Keepsake,” which includes Dickens’ own abbreviated reading version of his classic Christmas tale. “During the last years of his life, Dickens was very interested in making money,” Engel says, explaining that the author had 10 children and a mistress that he wanted to provide for financially after his death. “...He decided he couldn’t write fast enough, so he began doing dramatic readings of his works, and the one they wanted more than any other was, of course, ‘A Christmas Carol.’ So he got all dressed up and took it onstage, and it was a disaster, because it takes you four hours to read ‘A Christmas Carol.’ People were fainting in the aisles, going down the fire escape – it was awful.” As a result, Dickens trimmed his epic work down to a 50-minute dramatic reading. “He did a brilliant job of cutting it – so brilliant, in fact, that people couldn’t even tell what he’d cut out. He got rid of all the fat.” That abbreviated version of

SPECIAL | HPE

Charles Dickens scholar Elliot Engel will present “Dickens and Christmas” at High Point Country Club Wednesday. “A Christmas Carol” remained in the Dickens family until 10 years ago, when the author’s great-grandson, Cedric Dickens, gave Engel the rights to publish it. The only stipulation, Engel says, is that he is required to give profits to the Great Ormond Street Children’s Hospital in London, which Dickens had helped found in 1852. In addition to the reading, “A Christmas Carol Keepsake” includes an introductory essay by Engel – one of the nation’s foremost Dickens scholars – as well as a treasury of Victorian Christmas recipes, drinks, decorating tips and games, many of them handed down from Dickens’ family. During his presentation, Engel tries to be informative and humorous at the same time. “I try to teach them something they didn’t know about Dickens, and maybe even make them want to dust off their old volumes to read,” he says. For example, he continues,

most people don’t know about the connection between Dickens and the greeting card industry. According to Engel, the first Christmas card was invented in 1843 – a mere 10 days after ‘A Christmas Carol’ was published – and evidence indicates the man who sent the card had just read Dickens’ book and was influenced by it. “That was also the first greeting card of all time,” Engel contends, “so we have (Dickens) to thank – I mean, we have him to blame – for the entire greeting card industry.” Engel, who also gives presentations about numerous other authors – including the likes of Shakespeare, Poe and Twain – does about 180 literary and historical programs a year all over the country. He admits, though, that Dickens is still his favorite – in fact, he’s the president of the Dickens Fellowship of North Carolina – and he’s particularly partial to “A Christmas Carol.”

Elliot Engel will sign copies of his book, “A Christmas Carol Keepsake,” beginning at 1 p.m. Wednesday at the High Point Country Club, 800 Country Club Drive. The signing will follow Engel’s presentation to the Literary League of High Point, which is open to Literary League members and their guests only. For more information about Engel, visit his website at www. authorsink.com.

“It’s hard to find another work of literature that adapts so beautifully into a play,” he says of its popularity. “And we think it’s Scrooge who’s being converted by the ghosts, but it’s not – it’s us.” jtomlin@hpe.com | 888-3579

HEART PITCH After 10 tricks, South had the king of diamonds and two hearts; dummy had a spade and the K-J of hearts. When South led his high diamond, West had to pitch a heart to keep a high spade. Dummy threw the spade. South then led a heart at Trick 12, and West played low. South knew West’s last card was the queen of spades, so he put up the king of hearts to drop East’s queen and make the slam. Expert declarers know when to try for a “showup squeeze.”

DAILY QUESTION You hold: S A 10 9 4 H A K J 8 6 D Q C 8 4 3. You open one heart, your partner bids two clubs, you rebid two hearts and he tries three diamonds. What do you say? ANSWER: No doubt you can make 3NT, and many players would bid it. In my opinion, the hand has too much slam potential to sign off at 3NT. Your partner would pass with a hand such as 5, 4 3, K J 10 7, A K Q 10 6 2. Bid four clubs. To show support for your partner is a bidding principle. South dealer Neither side vulnerable

Your numbers are 1, 8, 13, 20, 24, 29, 36 ARIES (March 21-April 19): Express your ideas or you may not be considered for an important position or included in an activity someone is planning. Proactive, productive and progressive should be the way you approach everything. Take charge. ★★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Show your strengths, learn something new or do whatever it takes to improve your lifestyle. Now is the time to make changes to your personal life that can alter the way you approach both your professional and personal relationships. ★★★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Don’t let your emotions get the better of you, especially when dealing with family matters. Taking a responsible attitude will build up your confidence because of the favorable reaction you get from others. Improve your home environment. ★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): Go out of your way to keep the peace at home. Concentrate on spending time with people you find inspiring or fun. Love is in the picture, so plan a romantic evening or socialize with other singles. ★★★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Take care of your responsibilities quickly. A change of plans will leave you juggling a multitude of requests, placing you in a vulnerable position. Focus more on what’s going on outside your home base. Being prepared will be the key to your success. ★★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Keep what you find out a secret until you are ready to reveal your next move. Change is apparent but you must gauge the best time and way to follow through with your plans. Relationships must be handled with kid gloves. ★★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Don’t get all worked up over nothing.

Ask questions when in doubt. ★★★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Don’t believe everything you hear, especially from the people you are closest to or live with. Someone may be withholding information in order to spare your feelings. Make changes that help you eliminate the stressful situations you are facing. ★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Showing others how serious you are about what needs to be done will be half the battle. Map out your plans and expect to be challenged. The information you gather will help you achieve your goals and allow you to show how valuable you can be. ★★★★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Don’t spend needlessly. Do your homework and don’t sign any documents unless you are 100 percent sure. Put time aside for someone who can offer you valuable information. ★★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Tie up loose ends. Take care of pending problems. There is plenty you can do to satisfy yourself and the ones you love without going into debt. A long distance romance is likely to cause you sorrow. ★★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): You may have difficulty deciphering what someone expects of you at work or at a financial, legal or governmental institution. Don’t make a promise unless you are sure you can deliver and you understand exactly what’s expected of you. Romance is in a high cycle. ★★★

BRIDGE

No free cocktail service in today’s deal – but you can place your bet: Will an expert declarer make six clubs when West leads the king of spades? All depends on whether declarer picks up the hearts. Since he has eight hearts, a losing finesse to East’s queen seems normal. The actual declarer took the ace of spades, ruffed a spade and led a diamond. East won and led a trump, and South took the A-K of trumps, ruffed his low diamond in dummy, cashed the ace of hearts and ruffed a spade. He then ran his trumps.

HOROSCOPE

of distribution, said it has a good shot at becoming a $100 million hit. The weekend’s other new wide releases had weak starts. Paramount’s horror flick “Case 39,” starring Renee Zellweger, opened at No. 7 with $5.35 million, while Overture Film’s vampire tale “Let Me In,” debuted at No. 8 with $5.3 million.

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.

Carney, Saints kick Panthers NEW ORLEANS (AP) – It’s been only a week since 46-year-old John Carney was chasing his kids, coaching flag football, attending school events with his daughter and doing “all the fun stuff you get to do when you’re home.” “But it doesn’t pay very well,” he added. He’s getting paid now, and earning every cent so far. Only days after joining the Saints for his 23rd season as an NFL kicker, Carney drilled three crucial field goals to help New Orleans edge the Carolina Panthers 16-14 on Sunday. The Saints signed Carney last Tuesday, two days after Garrett Hartley missed a 29yard field goal in overtime in a 27-24 loss to Atlanta. While the Saints were able to manage only one touchdown on a screen pass to Lance Moore, Carney hit twice from 32 yards and again from 25 with 3:55 to go to put New Orleans (3-1) ahead to stay. “He’s just a pro. That’s all you can say,” Saints quarterback Drew Brees said. “It’s just ingrained in him. He’s one of these very focused, very regimented guys.” Wearing a knee brace in a game for the first time since high school, Brees was 33 of 48 for 275 yards passing and the TD to Moore. Brees’ knee had bothered him since he was hit by Falcons defensive end John Abraham last week, but the quarterback said the brace had nothing to do with low point production in an otherwise solid performance that produced 383 yards and 38:22 in time of possession. Rather, fumbles by Moore and rookie running back Chris Ivory – both deep in Carolina territory – along

with several dropped passes and missed blocks, slowed the Saints. “This was a 30-point day Carney we turned into 16 points with turnovers and a lack of execution,” Brees said. Carolina rookie Jimmy Clausen completed 11 of 20 passes for 146 yards, highlighted by his 55-yard scoring strike to Jonathan Stewart. DeAngelo Williams’ 39-yard TD run gave Carolina (0-4) a 14-10 lead in the third quarter before Carney made his last two field goals. Clausen came close to pulling off what would have been his first game-winning drive as a pro. He converted a fourth-and-4 play on a rollout pass to David Gettis along the sideline at the New Orleans 38 with 1:46 to go. “For Clausen to make that fourth-down play late in the game, that speaks volumes for what I think is inside of him,” offensive tackle Jordan Gross said. A few more yards could have gotten Carolina in range for a field goal to win it, but after Williams gained 2 yards on the next play, he was dropped by Usama Young for a 4-yard loss. Malcolm Jenkins then sacked Clausen. On fourth down from the New Orleans 44, Clausen tried to hit Dwyane Jarrett along the sideline, but cornerback Jabari Greer broke up the play with 8 seconds left, allowing the Saints to avoid an upset by a winless team that came in as a 13point underdog. Carolina WR Steve Smith left in the second half with a left ankle injury. His status for next week is uncertain.

Carolina linebacker Dan Connor (55) and safety Charles Godfrey break up a pass intended for New Orleans tight end David Thomas (85) in the second half of their game at the Louisiana Superdome in New Orleans on Sunday. The Saints needed a late field goal from John Carney to post a 16-14 victory and keep the Panthers winless on the season.

eryone besides Johnson and Denny Hamlin: Only once in Chase history has the eventual champion been ranked lower than second after Kansas. Who was that? Johnson, who rallied from eighth in points after Kansas in 2006 to win the first of his four consecutive titles. And here is again, rallying from as low as 21st midway through the race Sunday to finish second behind Biffle. He now has

an eight-point lead over Hamlin headed into next weekend’s race at California, where four of his five career victories have come in the last six visits there. Still, Johnson said winning a fifth consecutive championship isn’t in the bag. “It’s early. I’m not worried about who is leading the championship right now,” he said. It’s not Hamlin, who had his first off race of the Chase.

Like Johnson, he struggled mightily early in the race. But his adjustments were good enough for only a 12th-place finish, and Hamlin’s 35-point lead before the race began turned into an eightpoint deficit heading to California. “I knew right away we were going to have a long day,” Hamlin said. “You’ve got to make the most of your bad days and, if this is a bad day for us, then we’re going to rebound next weekend.” So will Kyle Busch, Hamlin’s teammate at Joe Gibbs Racing. Busch had early contact with David Reutimann that caused Reutimann to spin, and when they crossed paths later on the track, Reutimann appeared to intentionally knock him into the wall. Busch was running seventh at the time of the accident, fell to 22nd and demanded over his radio that NASCAR take action against Reutimann. Busch’s 21st-place finish was lowest of the Chase contenders. Busch dropped from third to seventh in the standings and is 80 points behind Johnson.

Greg Biffle celebrates in victory lane after winning Sunday’s NASCAR Sprint Cup event at Kansas Speedway.

he New England Patriots have dominated the AFC East in recent years, winning six of the last seven division titles. That has not translated into much success in Miami. The Patriots visit the Dolphins tonight (8:30 p.m., ESPN) in a crucial early-season AFC East showdown. Miami and New England enter with 2-1 records. The Patriots know history suggests it will be hard to improve to 3-1. Miami owns an imposing 33-12 home record against New England.

WHO’S NEWS

Biffle wins; Johnson takes Chase lead KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP) – Greg Biffle is back in the title hunt, and Jimmie Johnson has resumed his normal spot atop the NASCAR leaderboard. Kansas Speedway once again played a major role in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship, which got a whole lot tighter after a fast-paced Sunday race dominated by the title contenders. Biffle was the first of seven in the Chase to cross the finish line, pulling himself out of a deep hole with seven races remaining to determine the championship. “Everybody asked us if we’re out of the Chase, have we given up?” the Roush-Fenway Racing driver said. “The 16 team will never give up. A win here propelled us up there. Maybe we’ll go do the same next week.” That had to be the widespread thinking as nine drivers left Kansas separated by 101 points. It’s the closest the Chase field has been after three races since NASCAR switched to the format in 2004. But there’s another telling stat that could mean trouble for ev-

TOP SCORES

Since becoming head coach of the Pats in 2000, Bill Belichick sports a 4-6 road record against the Dolphins. Tom Brady is just 3-5 against the Dolphins in Florida. Between 1970 and 1986, New England lost 16 straight road games to the Dolphins, snapping the skid with a 33-14 playoff victory in January of 1986. Miami leads the overall series 50-39. I’ve always contended the Dolphins enjoy the most pronounced weather-related homefield advantage. If you’ve experienced the heat and humidity

of south Florida, you know how quickly it can drain you. Folks in Massachusetts (and most other NFL locales for that matter) simply can’t prepare for the 90-degree heat and 100-percent humidity. Even at night, the weather in Miami can be brutal. That’s not to say I’m picking the Dolphins to win this game. It’s just the Dolphins are much more at home in the heat of the Miami night.

Dario Franchitti signed a contract to return to IndyCar on a napkin. He’s spent the last two years etching his legacy in stone. Franchitti captured his third IndyCar title on Saturday night at Homestead, dominating when he had to then expertly avoiding trouble after points leader Will Power faltered, eventually finishing eighth behind Target Chip Ganassi Racing teammate Scott Dixon to edge Power by five points. “It’s a pretty good haul, isn’t it?” Franchitti said. The two-time Indy 500 winner gave Ganassi his fourth championship in the last eight years with the kind of flawless performance that has become the 37-year-old Scot’s hallmark. Franchitti started from the pole and with Dixon serving as a bodyguard, led a race-high 128 laps to pick up two valuable bonus points and increase the pressure on Power as the sun dipped behind the 1.5mile oval. Dixon beat Danica Patrick and Tony Kanaan to the checkered flag. Patrick used a “gust of wind” to edge Kanaan by inches and post her second runnerup finish of the season.

After running away from Stanford, Oregon jumped over Boise State and into No. 3 in The Associated Press college football poll on Sunday. Meanwhile, for the first time in 10 years, Texas fell out of the Top 25. Two more traditional powers tumbled from the rankings, too, with Penn State and Southern California joining the Longhorns in the others receiving votes. The top two spots in the rankings remained unchanged. Alabama is No. 1 and Ohio State is No. 2, just the way it’s been since the preseason. No. 4 Boise State spent the entire first month of the season ranked third, but the Broncos couldn’t hold off the Ducks this week. Oregon fell behind 21-3 in the first quarter against Stanford on Saturday night at home, but Darron Thomas and LaMichael James brought the Ducks zooming back for a 52-31 victory. Stanford came into the game ranked No. 9, but fell seven spots this week. Ohio State received one first-place vote and Boise State received the other. Oregon had 1,379 points and Boise State got 1,341. TCU was No. 5 in the latest poll. No. 6 Oklahoma, Nebraska, Auburn, Arizona and Utah round out the top 10. N.C. State also fell out of the rankings after one week, following a 41-30 loss to Virginia Tech.

N.C. State set to rebound BY GREER SMITH ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER

RALEIGH – Virginia Tech burst N.C. State’s undefeated bubble Saturday night. Now, coach Tom O’Brien must guard against the 41-30 loss and the squandering of a 17-point lead wrecking a season that stands at 4-1 overall and 1-1 in the ACC as he tries to avoid the program’s fifth losing season in six years. “It’s a tough loss, but it’s a loss and we’ll find out about our character now to get back on track,” O’Brien said. “We’ve got a lot of time to go and a lot of season left. We can still have a great year. Our goal now is to meet these guys again.” To do that, the teams would have to play in the ACC Championship game. The Hokies are on top in the Atlantic Division at 2-0. Sitting third at 1-1 in the Coastal Division behind Florida State (2-0) and Maryland (1-0), State has work to do starting Saturday when it plays host to Boston College for a noon kickoff. “We’ve had a good season starting off,” said Owen Spencer, who led the Pack with six catches for 45 yards. “We’ve done good so far, but we got tested today and now we have to pin our ears back and finish the conference right.” State failed the test Saturday after John Czajkowski converted a 42-yard field goal to provide a 30-28 lead with 4:42 to play. Unlike the previous week at Georgia Tech, the Pack failed to come up with a defensive stop as the Hokies marched 76 yards in seven

plays. They scored with 1:27 left on a 39-yard pass from Tyrod Taylor to Jarrett Boykin – who broke a couple of tackles along the way. “There is no excuse for us not to finish,” O’Brien said. “That’s where you want to be, up by three with four minutes left in the game.” State couldn’t finish after going up 17-0 just 49 seconds into the second quarter. Quarterback Russell Wilson completed six of 12 passes up to that point, but went just 15 of 37 and was intercepted three times against a blitzing Tech defense the rest of the way. Noting the program’s lack of recent success, Spencer bristled at the notion that the Pack became complacent after building the 17-point lead so quickly. “We’re not a complacent team,” Spencer said. “We’ve been through the tough days, so we’re not satisfied with anything. We’ve got to stay hungry and keep the ball moving.” Otherwise, more bubbles will burst.

WOLFPACK NOTES With three point-after-touchdown conversions against the Hokies, Czajkowski moved into a tie with Mike Coker and Damon Hartman for most in school history at 97. ... With three passing touchdowns on Saturday, Wilson moved into second-place in school history with 62, far behind the record 95 thrown by Philip Rivers from 2000-2003. ... State launched a web site, RussellWilson16. com, on Saturday to help promote Wilson in a longshot Heisman Trophy bid. gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3556

Nesbitt, Georgia Tech foil Wake late WINSTON-SALEM (AP) – For three quarters, Joshua Nesbitt and Georgia Tech’s unique offense hardly looked complicated or potent, and the Yellow Jackets looked far from the team that was once ranked 15th. Then Nesbitt finally broke free for a 50-yard run, sparking a remarkable rally to keep Georgia Tech in contention in the Atlantic Coast Conference. Nesbitt shook a rough start with three finalquarter scoring drives, capped by his 9-yard touchdown pass to Correy Earls with 15 seconds left in Georgia

Tech’s 24-20 comeback win over Wake Forest on Saturday night. Nesbitt had 6 yards rushing on 19 carries entering the fourth quarter, then was unstoppable for the Yellow Jackets (3-2, 2-1), who avoided losing consecutive games under Johnson for the first time. “We felt like we weren’t executing the offense,” said Nesbitt, who rushed for 72 yards and threw for 130. “Don’t take me wrong, they played a great game. But we felt like we kept hurting ourselves.” Wake Forest’s third straight loss was a heartbreaker. Josh Adams

rushed for 101 yards and a touchdown and Brandon Pendergrass added a rushing TD for the Demon Deacons (2-3, 12), who nearly won with fourth-string quarterback Skylar Jones. Ted Stachitas and Brendan Cross were injured early in the game with starter Tanner Price already sidelined. Jones, too, got hurt, but played through a foot injury and completed 9 of 20 passes for 105 yards. “I don’t know what it’s going to take to find somebody who is durable enough to make it through a football game right now,” coach Jim Grobe said.

Europe leaves U.S. blue THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEWPORT, Wales – Bolstered by the sight of blue on every leaderboard, the Europeans won five matches and halved the last one when Francesco Molinari knocked in a 3-foot birdie putt on Sunday, giving them a 9½-6½ lead over the United States in the Ryder Cup. Europe needs to win only five of the 12 singles matches today to reclaim the gold trophy. Lee Westwood teamed with Luke Donald to demoralize Tiger Woods and Steve Stricker, who had never lost in six previous matches. Europe was 4 up when matches resumed, and Westwood promptly knocked in a 30-foot birdie putt to win the hole. His team went on to a 6-and-5 victory. Stewart Cink and Matt Kuchar were the only Americans to lead in a match. They were 1 up playing the 18th until Francesco Molinari stuffed his wedge into 3 feet for a halfpoint that left Kuchar and his teammates sagging their shoulders as they trudged off the course. Dustin Johnson, who joined Mickelson as the only American without a point, and Jim Furyk were on the cusp of a big rally until Johnson three-putted for bogey on the 14th to fall 2-down. They never caught up against Padraig Harrington and Ross Fisher.

HAAS TAKES VIKING CLASSIC MADISON, Miss. – Bill Haas overcame five bogeys in the final round to finish 15 under and win the Viking Classic by three strokes, his second victory of the year.

Braves capture NL wild card THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ATLANTA – Bobby Cox was drenched with beer and champagne and hoisted onto the shoulders of his players after the Atlanta Braves gave their manager a final trip to the playoffs. Atlanta reached the postseason as the NL wild-card team, a first for Cox, as Tim Hudson and the Braves took a six-run lead, then held on for an 8-7 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies on Sunday. “This being Bobby’s last year, losing today was not an option,� Hudson said. After the win, the Braves watched on TV as San Francisco beat San Diego 3-0, giving the Braves the NL wild card by one game over the Padres. “We fought and we fought and we fought,� Hudson said of the 91-win season that included a nine-game losing streak in April and season-ending injuries to Chipper Jones, Martin Prado and Kris Medlen. Atlanta will start the playoffs Thursday at NL West champion San Fran-

cisco in the opener of a best-of-five series. The Braves won 14 straight division titles with Cox but had missed the playoffs since 2005. Cox’s final regular-season record was 2,504-2,001. He ranks fourth in wins, trailing only Connie Mack (3,776), John McGraw (2,840) and Tony La Russa (2,638). This is Cox’s 15th season with 90 or more wins, second to only McGraw. Cox also had 158 regular-season ejections, easily surpassing McGraw (117) for the most among managers.

Seasonal hiring looks merrier NEW YORK (AP) – The holiday hiring picture looks a bit merrier this year. Macy’s, Toys R Us, Pier 1, American Eagle Outfitters and Borders all plan to hire more temporary holiday workers this year than last, emboldened by several months of sales gains and a slowly improving economy. The jobs probably won’t be enough to be a dent in the nation’s nearly 10 percent unemployment rate, but for Americans desperate for some work, they’re far more than an early Christmas present. “I’m trying to do anything at this point,” said Nancy Hoagland, who was laid off from her marketing job in May and has been working part-time as a cashier at a golf club near her home in Littleton, Colo., to pay the bills. On hearing that stores might add more jobs this holiday season, she said she might stop by Kohl’s department store on the way home to see if she could fill out an application.

Belk retools image

AP

A Bed Bath & Beyond store advertises for employment in San Mateo, Calif. Retailers including Toys R Us, Pier 1 and Borders plan to hire more temporary holiday workers this season than last year, emboldened by several months of sales gains and a slowly improving economy. “My husband and I could be facing foreclosure if we don’t get (steady employment) secured in the next couple of months. I’ve never faced anything like that in my life,” she said.

Retailers will add between 550,000 and 650,000 jobs this holiday season, according to an updated forecast from the national outsourcing firm Challenger, Gray and Christmas, said spokesman

James Pedderson. That’s significantly more than the 501,400 added last year. But it’s still well below the 720,800 added in 2007, just before the recession began. The holidays are

crucial to retailers, accounting for 40 percent of annual sales in some cases. Retailers have seen modest sales gains in recent months, easing fears of a double-dip recession.

RALEIGH (AP) – Charlotte-based Belk is looking to update its 122-yearold image. The News & Observer of Raleigh reported Sunday that the iconic Southern department store chain will spend about $70 million to change its logo to a more modern look and rebrand itself. Belk last changed its script logo 43 years ago. The new logo will be all lowercase letters. The first wave of about 60 stores to get the new signs will be in larger cities of Atlanta, Birmingham, Charlotte and Raleigh. The rest of the company’s 300 stores get the signs over the next year. Belk opened its first store in Monroe in 1888 and has since spread beyond its Carolinas base and the traditional South to Michigan, Ohio, Missouri and Indiana.

Target pins holiday sales hopes on iPad THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

versions of both the Wi-Fi and Wi-Fi + 3G models. They are available in-store only and start at $499. Minneapolis-based Target Corp. is now the largest retail chain to carry the iPad.

Best Buy Co. has carried the iPad since the device’s April launch. The weak economy hasn’t seemed to dim demand for the tablet computer. Apple Inc. sold about 3.3 million iPads in the gadget’s first three months on the market and some analysts have estimated that it sold over 5 million iPads during the quarter ended in September. Customers mostly browsed the selection Sunday at Target’s Cupertino, Calif., store, peppering electronics team member Chetna Parikh with questions about pricing and which wireless carrier they’d have to sign up with if they bought the device (answer: AT&T Inc.). “We hope to sell a lot more later this week, once people are more aware that we carry it,” Parikh said in a phone interview with The Associated Press.

BofA delays foreclosures WASHINGTON (AP) – Bank of America is delaying foreclosures in 23 states as it examines whether it rushed the foreclosure process for thousands of homeowners without reading the documents. The move adds the nation’s largest bank to a growing list of mortgage companies whose employees signed documents in foreclosure cases without verifying the information in them. Bank of America isn’t

DILBERT

able to estimate how many homeowners’ cases will be affected, Dan Frahm, a spokesman for the Charlotte, N.C.-based bank, said Friday. He said the bank plans to resubmit corrected documents within several weeks. Two other companies, Ally Financial Inc.’s GMAC Mortgage unit and JPMorgan Chase, have halted tens of thousands of foreclosure cases after similar problems became public. The document problems

could cause thousands of homeowners to contest foreclosures that are in the works or have been completed. If the problems turn up at other lenders, a foreclosure crisis that’s already likely to drag on for several more years could persist even longer. State attorneys general, who enforce foreclosure laws, are stepping up pressure on the industry. On Friday, Connecticut Attorney General Richard Blumenthal asked a state

court to freeze all home foreclosures for 60 days to “stop a foreclosure steamroller based on defective documents,” he said. In Florida, the state attorney general is investigating four law firms, two with ties to GMAC, for allegedly providing fraudulent documents in foreclosure cases. Mark Paustenbach, a Treasury Department spokesman, said the Treasury has asked federal regulators “to look into these troubling developments.”

Coca-Cola closes $3.4 billion deal for bottler ATLANTA (AP) – CocaCola Co. has completed its $3.4 billion buyout of the North American operations of its largest bottler, part of the company’s plans to control more of its distribution to better react to changing customer tastes. The world’s largest soft

drink maker closed the deal on Sunday for the domestic unit of CocaCola Enterprises Inc. The bottler’s shareholders approved the deal on Friday. Earlier in the week regulators approved the sale with certain conditions, namely

that Coca-Cola restrict its access to business information from rival Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc. Some of Dr Pepper’s drinks are bottled by Coca-Cola Enterprises under a deal made when it was an independent bottler.

High Point honors deserving heroes I

n classical mythology, a hero was described as “being of godlike prowess (extraordinary skill or distinguished bravery) and beneficence (doing good as in performing acts of kindness and charity).” That primeval definition still holds true today and more specifically pertains to the High Pointers who have recently been bestowed as “High Point Heroes.” Before I go any farther it is my duty to tell you that High Point’s first honored hero was John Coltrane the internationally acclaimed American saxophonABOUT ist and TOWN composer Mary who grew Bogest up in High Point. An 8-foot tall bronze statue by renown sculptor Jay Warren, located at Commerce Avenue and Hamilton Street, was dedicated in 2006, and an interactive kiosk was added in 2008. More High Point honors will be coming forth for the “Trane,” and I will tell you about that in another column. The eight recently named heros each have been honored with a bronze plaque located within the downtown area. As I mention each one, the location of their plaque will be given in parentheses. It was a very hot, sunny day as community leaders, interested citizens and relatives of the newly named “heroes” were to be honored. Each hero relative wore a name tag and I was amazed at just how many relatives of these deceased heroes, many who traveled far distances, came to honor their ancestors. As I looked up to the stage at Mendenhall Station and saw the dignitaries and the inductee presenters ascend the dais, it seemed to me that I was looking at future hero inductees. The reason why I use the term “future” is simply that High Point Heroes must be deceased! Before the ceremony began, I chatted with some of the relatives. I was first drawn to a man with a long white beard. He was Chris Williamson from Atlanta and the son of High Point’s first Olympian Harry Williamson (Kivett & Main) who participated in the 1936 Olympic Games that were held in Germany during the reign of Adolph Hitler. Chris came to High Point bear■■■

Myrtle. I love this story! Joseph was a minister in New York and among his parishioners was Eleanor Roosevelt. Joseph and Marianne thought it would be a special treat for his mother to meet Mrs. Roosevelt and invited them both to a brunch on the Friday after Thanksgiving. Myrtle was a staunch Republican and, when she found out that it was Mrs. Roosevelt that she would be meeting, she would have nothing to do with the Democrat even if she was the former first lady! Hero Perley Albert Thomas (Main & Commerce) had the most relatives in attendance. Named after its founder, Thomas Car Works built many of the streetcars used in the first half of the 20th century. The transportation tradition of Thomas has continued with Thomas Built Buses. He was introduced by David King, former deputy secretary of the N.C. Department of Transportation. Some of the original streetcars still are being used in New Orleans! “Be all you can be” was coined by Gen. Maxwell Reid Thurman (Main & High) as the slogan for the Army. It

also was his personal slogan. Thurman never married, so finding his relatives was one of the more challenging searches that Aaron Clinard, architect of the High Point Heroes, faced. An Internet search led him to the Thurman-Zumwalt Foundation, named for Thurman and Admiral Elmo Zumwalt. Executive director Philip Carter knew of a goddaughter of Thurman’s. She drove from Washington, D.C., to attend. Clinard also discovered that his good friend Robert Jordan, former lieutenant governor of North Carolina, was Thurman’s college roommate. Jordan spoke of the last time he saw Thurman, who led the Panama invasion overthrowing Noriega, “We were walking around the Lincoln Memorial and he said to me, ‘I don’t have long to live.’ Max was a true patriot and a great human being.” HPU baseball coach Craig Cozart spoke of Chicago White Sox Hall of Fame player Lucius Appling (Elm & Commerce), who was known as “Old Aches and Pains” by his teammates for all of his injuries but he always managed to

play the next day. Clinard went to the Internet to find Appling’s two daughters who traveled to the dedication from Georgia. He began his career selling milk, fish and goats before he got into toys and wearing his notable $15 red suit. How befitting that a park (Gibson Park) be named for James Emory Gibson (English & Main), the inventor of the “Fli-Back.” If you are too young or just need a reminder, the “Fli-Back” was a paddle with a ball attached by an elastic band. In the 1950s and ’60s, these were all the craze as youngsters rhythmically bounced the ball off of the paddle. Attorney Ken McAllister introduced Louis Fisher (Commerce near Wrenn). Fisher was a founding member of the Fisher, Clinard and Cornwell law firm, but it was his work on the U.S. Olympic Committee that helped to catapult him to High Point Hero. Fisher spent 29 years on the Olympic Committee serving with Princess Grace’s brother Jack Kelly and through his travels met Khruhschev, Tito and MacArthur. The Louis Fisher Award is given annually to an amateur athlete. Last but certainly not least is Willis Slane (Wrenn at Showplace), founder of Hatteras Yacht. Dave Phillips, former ambassador to Estonia and destined to be a High Point Hero himself said, “Willis Slane was one of the most unique personalities in the world. Hatteras started right behind you in a filling station.” The story goes something like this … Slane (brother of Jack) was on a fishing expedition at Hatteras when nature’s wrath produced waters too treacherous to navigate. It was Slane’s notion to build a boat with a fiberglass hull bottom that could endure the fabled “Graveyard of the Atlantic.” His first boat, “Knit Wits” began the Hatteras legacy known throughout the world.

17 stuck on Ferris wheel rescued safely RACINE, Wis. (AP) โ Emergency crews in Wisconsin used a ladder truck to rescue 17 people trapped on a Ferris wheel. The ride was one of the attractions at Party on the Pavement in Racine. Officials say emergency crews were called about 1 p.m. Saturday after it appeared the ride fell out of alignment and got stuck. No one was hurt, but it took about two hours to stabilize the wheel before the rescues began. Nicole Wagenaar, 7, said she cried a bit, but firefighters got her down safely. Police Chief Kurt Wahlen says an expert will do an inspection to determine why it failed.
