City investigates club owner’s complaint BY PAT KIMBROUGH ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – City officials will investigate a discrimination complaint from a local nightclub owner who brought her grievances to the City Council earlier this week. City Manager Strib Boynton on Tuesday asked City Attorney Fred Baggett and Human Relations Commission Director Al Heggins to review Gloria AlejoJones’ allegations that the Cristal Nite Club was unfairly targeted by police, who successfully petitioned the state to summarily suspend the facility’s alcohol permits in August on the grounds that it posed a threat to public safety because of the amount of

crime associated with it. AlejoJones told the council she felt discriminated against because she is Hispanic and asked for an investigation. “I fully agree that any complaints involving alleged discrimination by city representatives needs to be independently reviewed without external influence,” Boynton wrote in a memo to Mayor Becky Smothers and council members. “That has been our clear and consistent practice for the past 13 years that I have been city manager.” Boynton said he asked Baggett and Heggins to interview AlejoJones, police ABC detectives and others they think may be appropriate during their investigation, which they expect to take

about 60 days. Boynton said “any facts, findings and/or recommendations that each of them may have” will be made public.

Police received 147 calls for service at the 509 Ennis St. site of the club from August 2007 to July 2010. According to authorities, police received 147 calls for service at the 509 Ennis St. site of the club from August 2007 to July 2010, some of which involved

shootings, robberies, fights and drugs. Police asked the N.C. Alcoholic Beverage Commission to immediately suspend the club’s liquor license on the grounds that allowing the establishment to serve alcohol was requiring police to devote a disproportionate amount of resources to respond to calls there. Alejo-Jones told the council the club is her only source of income, that she is trying to get her license reinstated and hopes to open a restaurant on the site. Others spoke on her behalf, telling the council that the presence of the club was a benefit to the surrounding neighborhood.

Trinity vineyard hosts Wrangler photo shoot

Local candidates to meet public at upcoming forums.

TRINITY – Norman Zimmerman couldn’t help but be excited Wednesday as his Trinity winery hosted a photo shoot for Wrangler. “It’s a privilege to think that someone might consider our site a pretty enough setting and a backdrop for what Wrangler wants to advertise,” said Zimmerman, who co-owns Zimmerman Vineyards along with his wife Leslie. “It’s

It just continues to spread because it is a pretty place.” Zimmerman Vineyards is located outside of Trinity on Tabernacle Church Road. The Zimmermans grow about 5 acres of grapes, with an additional 20 acres of potential vineyard. Zimmerman Vineyards also will host the final day of the photo shoot today. Greensboro photographer Daniel Ray shot the event for Wrangler. He said four male models from New York will participate in the photo shoot over the two days. Ray said the photos will end up on Wrangler hang tags, the company’s website and in stores. “I think for this, (Wrangler)

This looks like it could be anywhere in America.” Larry Clapp, the creative director for Wrangler’s photo shoot, said the vineyard provides an opportunity for a variety of pictures. He said the vineyard’s rocks and fences allow photographers to do many shots in one spot. Zimmerman Vineyards opened its doors on June 1, 2007, as Randolph County’s first commercial vineyard. Norman Zimmerman said his business is doing well. “It’s basically all sold here,” he said. “We can’t keep up with the demand.

Cooler temperatures to continue this week BY PAT KIMBROUGH ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

Convention and Visitor’s Bureau reports increased sales again BY PAM HAYNES ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

Randy Russell pulls a generator up to his restaurant, Bunn’s Barbecue, as receding floodwaters leak over makeshift sand barriers in Windsor.

Officials assess damage in flooded areas about two days before the town knows for sure how many homes and businesses were damaged. But officials there know that roughly 26 homes, including 14 mobile homes from a park on the outskirts of town, are total losses already. The Red Cross was still operating shelters Tuesday in Washington, Windsor and New Bern, said regional director Lynwood Roberson, although he didn’t have a tally of overnight occupants. The area Red Cross has served 632 meals and more than 3,500 snacks to people displaced by the flooding, but say demand is beginning to drop off. “The waters are receding a little bit now, thank the good Lord,” Roberson said. The falling waters are allowing state and federal teams to begin

RALEIGH (AP) – Officials were assessing damage from rain and floods this week in eastern North Carolina, even as some areas continued to face high water unlikely to recede before the weekend. Concerns ranged from lost homes and wrecked businesses to potentially harmful effects on farmers’ crops. With damage spread across 19 counties, the full scope won’t be known until the end of the week at the earliest. “After ‘99, nobody thought it would happen again in their lifetime, and now 11 years later we’re reliving the same thing,” said Vanceboro Mayor Chad Braxton, referring to Hurricane Floyd in 1999. Waters in Vanceboro were still high, and Braxton said it will be

estimating how much damage has been done since last week, when more than 20 inches of rain fell across most of the eastern part of the state. In some places, the water has barely receded, leaving residents still vulnerable to high water. State officials expect the Northeast Cape Fear River at Burgaw, the Neuse River at Kinston and the Lumber River at Lumberton to remain at flood stage until Friday or Saturday, said Julia Jarema, spokeswoman for the state Division of Emergency Management. “The river crested yesterday, but it’s only receded half a foot since then,” said Tommy Batson, a deputy fire marshal with the Pender County Department of Emergency Management in Burgaw. “There’s still a lot of stuff that’s just inundated.”

Smartphone snatcher prompts manhunt PALO ALTO, Calif. (AP) – Silicon Valley takes its technology seriously, to say the least. Palo Alto police enlisted officers from two neighboring cities and a sheriff’s helicopter to hunt down a smartphone snatcher Tuesday evening. And the suspect still managed to get away on

HIGH POINT – The weather may be getting cooler, but tourism sales in High Point are heating up as summer is coming to an end. The High Point Convention and Visitor’s Bureau reported increased sales for the third consecutive month in its fiscal year. The HPCVB collected $109,198 from the hotel room tax in July, up 2 percent from last year, and $98,710 in June, up 11 percent from last year. The hotel room tax is its primary source of revenue. “This is a number we can be proud of,” said treasurer Chris Greene about July sales, the organization’s latest financial data. “It’s so good to talk about the fact that we are ahead of last year. Last year wasn’t such a good year, but this year is turning out to be good.” Year-to-date sales are up 5 percent from the same time last year. Sales manager Marva Wells said tourism busi-

ness is returning after a long period of declining sales. “It’s beginning to come back to us,” she said. “Groups are coming in slow, but they’re moving up. I can’t name all of the 0things that are going on in High Point right now... We’re in a positive groove, and it’s looking good.” Jim Morgan, chairman of the board of directors, cited heavier traffic at the fall Pre-Market, which boasted more registered attendees than ever this year, and High Point University as major traffic generators. The board also approved $172,300 to be allocated between 25 organizations in its annual Arts and Tourism Grants. Morgan said the High Point City Council recently approved the HPCVB to renew its lease for up to three more years in its current location at 300 S. Main St. The High Point Doll and Miniature Museum also is located in the same space.

Cooper probes 5 lenders over foreclosures vestigation began in late September amid questions about Ally Financial Inc.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s GMAC Mortgage policies. That company halted certain evictions and sales of foreclosed homes in 23 states to review those cases after finding procedural errors in some foreclosure affidavits.

In a Sept. 15, 2010 file photo, Ariana Iacono, 14, poses for a photograph in Clayton. The American Civil Liberties Union filed a lawsuit in federal court in Raleigh on Wednesday on behalf of Iacono.

ACLU sues NC school over studentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nose piercing RALEIGH (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The American Civil Liberties Union claims in a lawsuit filed Wednesday that a North Carolina school violated the constitutional rights of a 14-yearold student by suspending her for wearing a nose piercing. The lawsuit from the state chapter of the ACLU seeks a court order allowing Ariana Iacono to return immediately to Clayton High School, which has kept her on suspension for four weeks since classes started. The complaint hinges on Iaconoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s claim that her nose piercing isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just a matter of fashion, but an article of faith. She and her mother, Nikki, belong to a small religious group called the Church of Body Modification, which sees tattoos, piercings and the like as channels to the divine. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a case about a familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s right to send a 14-year-old honor student to public school without her being forced to renounce her familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s religious beliefs,â&#x20AC;? wrote lawyers from the ACLU and the Raleigh firm Ellis & Winters in a brief supporting the lawsuit.

The Johnston County school system has a dress code banning facial piercings, along with short skirts, sagging pants, â&#x20AC;&#x153;abnormal hair colorâ&#x20AC;? and other items deemed distracting or disruptive. But the dress code also allows for exemptions based on â&#x20AC;&#x153;sincerely held religious belief,â&#x20AC;? and says, â&#x20AC;&#x153;the principal or designees shall not attempt to determine whether the religious beliefs are valid, but only whether they are central to religious doctrine and sincerely held.â&#x20AC;? Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s where the school stepped over the line, the lawsuit alleges, saying officials repeatedly dismissed explanations of the Iaconosâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; faith by the family and their Raleigh minister. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We followed all the rules, so I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t understand why the school is being so unreasonable,â&#x20AC;? Nikki Iacono said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The dress code policy allows for a religious exemption, and I explained to the principal and various school officials how my daughterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nose stud is essential to the expression of our familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s religious values.â&#x20AC;?

Terri Sessoms, spokeswoman for Johnston County schools, said the district had received notice of the lawsuit, but officials canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t comment on disciplinary actions involving individual students. Ariana Iacono has been suspended four times since fall classes started, missing 19 out of 28 school days so far. On Monday, the school system denied an appeal of her most recent suspension, and told her sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d have to attend South Campus Community School, an alternative facility for students with disciplinary and other problems. She still wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be allowed to wear the nose piercing in the other school. Nikki Iacono, 32, joined the Church of Body Modification in 2009, and her daughter followed a year later. Their minister, Richard Ivey, thinks school officials are dismissing a little-known belief system simply because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unfamiliar. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m shocked that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gone this far, but I guess Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not surprised theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be so quick to stick with their first judgment and not hear anyone elseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s reasoning,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Israeli premier weighs new settlement curbs RAMALLAH, West Bank â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Israelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s prime minister has been sounding out key Cabinet members on extending a freeze on new construction in West Bank settlements in hopes of keeping peace talks with the Palestinians alive, but he is encountering stiff resistance, Israeli officials said Wednesday. In Ramallah, key members of the Palestinian leadership â&#x20AC;&#x201C; in an increasingly tense waiting mode â&#x20AC;&#x201C; expressed optimism that an extension nonetheless was imminent.

US apologizes for attack on Pakistani soldiers ISLAMABAD â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The U.S. apologized Wednesday for a recent helicopter attack that killed two Pakistani soldiers at an outpost near the Afghan border, saying American pilots mistook the soldiers for insurgents they were pursuing. The apology could pave the way for Pakistan to reopen a key border crossing that NATO uses to ship goods into landlocked Afghanistan.

Envoy: American firms cannot wait on Iraq BAGHDAD â&#x20AC;&#x201C; American companies cannot afford to wait to go after business deals in Iraq until there is â&#x20AC;&#x153;nice, neat order,â&#x20AC;? a senior U.S. trade official said Wednesday, warning they could lose ground to bolder international competitors. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We believe that American companies can compete with anyone in the world, but we do have to show up,â&#x20AC;? said Francisco Sanchez, the U.S. undersecretary of commerce for international trade.

War enters 10th year KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s make-or-break time in Afghanistan. The war enters its 10th year today, and this is no ordinary anniversary. With extra American troops now in place, this is the critical juncture to determine if President Barack Obamaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s revised war stategy will work and reverse Taliban momentum. Key players are hedging their bets, uncertain whether the Obama ad-

ministration is prepared to stay for the long haul, move quickly to exit an increasingly unpopular conflict, or something in between. Fearing that his Western allies may in the end abandon him, Afghan President Hamid Karzai has started to prepare his nation for a withdrawal of international forces by shoring up relations with neighboring Pakistan and reaching out to insurgents interested in reconciliation.

SEOUL, South Korea (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The threat posed by North Koreaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nuclear program has reached an â&#x20AC;&#x153;extremely dangerous level,â&#x20AC;? an adviser to South Koreaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s president said in comments published Wednesday. It was not clear whether the comments by Kim Tae-hyo, President Lee Myung-bakâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s deputy national security adviser, were based on new intelligence. They followed a report released last week by the Washington-based Institute for Science and International Security that satellite images from Sept. 29 showed new construction activity in the area surrounding North Koreaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nuclear reactor. Kimâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s comments were reported Wednesday in the JoongAng Ilbo newspaper.

Forecasters say the storm could strengthen in the next two days as it turns eastward and heads farther out to sea.

France warns of high terrorism risk in Britain PARIS (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Franceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Foreign Ministry is warning French travelers of a high terrorism risk in Britain, asking them to be watchful in public transport and busy tourist areas across the English Channel. A message posted on the ministryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Web site late Tuesday said British authorities have warned that â&#x20AC;&#x153;the level of terrorist threat is very high in the United Kingdom, and the risk of an attack is very likely.â&#x20AC;? The ministry said France wanted to pass those concerns on to French citizens, many of whom live in Britain or travel there frequently. France has not issued any recent warnings for other countries in Europe, though officials have repeatedly insisted that the threat is high in

Green Beret killed in Afghan war gets Medal of Honor WASHINGTON (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; In a ceremony that mixed pain, pride and determination, President Barack Obama on Wednesday awarded the Medal of Honor to a young Army Green Beret who saved his patrol by holding off a Taliban ambush in a snowy Afghan valley two winters ago. He told the parents of Army Staff Sgt. Robert J. Miller, â&#x20AC;&#x153;You gave your oldest son to America, and America is forever in your debt.â&#x20AC;? Miller was killed in the ambush. The presentation in a hushed East Room came on the eve of the warâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ninth anniversary â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and 13 months after Obama gave the same award for gallantry to another set of parents whose son was cut down on another Afghan battlefield. Miller, 24, was a Pashtospeaking Special Forces

Poll shows working-class whites moving toward GOP WASHINGTON (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Working-class whites are favoring Republicans in numbers that parallel the GOP tide of 1994 when the party grabbed control of the House after four decades. The increased GOP tilt by these voters, a major hurdle for Democrats struggling to keep control of Congress in next monthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s elections, reflects a mix of two factors, an Associated Press-GfK poll suggests: unhappiness with the Democratsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; stewardship of an ailing economy that has hit this group particularly hard, and a persistent discomfort with President Barack Obama. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re pushing the country toward a larger government, toward too many social programs,â&#x20AC;? said Wayne Hollis, 38, of Villa Rica, Ga., who works at a home supply store. The AP-GfK poll shows whites without fouryear college degrees preferring GOP House contenders 58 percent to 36 percent. That 22-point bulge is double the edge these voters gave Republican congressional candidates in 2006 and 2008, when Democrats won House control and then padded their majority.

WASHINGTON (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The Obama administration blocked efforts by government scientists to tell the public just how bad the Gulf oil spill could become and committed other missteps that raised questions about its competence and candor during the crisis, according to a commission appointed by the president to investigate the disaster. In documents released Wednesday, the national oil spill commissionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s staff describes â&#x20AC;&#x153;not an incidental public relations problemâ&#x20AC;? by the White House in the wake of the April 20 accident. Among other things, the report says, the administration made erroneous early estimates of the spillâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s size, and President Barack Obamaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s senior energy adviser went on national TV and mischaracterized a government analysis by saying it showed most of the oil was â&#x20AC;&#x153;gone.â&#x20AC;?

State law should prohibit smoking on the job I would like to talk about something most people ignore. But this is very serious when you are a nonsmoker. I think North Carolina should have a law against smoking on the job. Smokers don’t only take their two breaks and lunch break, they also take many more breaks a day. While the other employees are working, the smokers are outside smoking and talking because they get nervous if they don’t smoke. Two friends of mine did a test at their job site, checking their watch every time a nervous smoker had to go outside. They actually worked three hours in the whole day. So employers are paying for eight hours of work for employees who only work three hours. That is so unfair to the other employees. It’s like getting money for free. DAMARIS GALVEZ Archdale

We must always stand to defend free speech BY CHARLES HONEYCUTT

olly Norris no longer exists. A Seattle area cartoonist and reporter, she wasn’t wellknown until last April.

not found in the Quran). Norris responded by posting a political cartoon advocating “Everybody Draw Mohammed Day.” This unofficial holiday was both a joke and a serious statement, sponsored by a fake group called Citizens Against Citizens Against Humor and containing the directive, “Do your part to both water down the pool of targets and, oh yeah, defend a little something our country is famous for.” She also noted that Comedy Central caved in to threats and censored the show even after the South Park team put their own lives at risk to defend that “little something.” Writers took up the call to arms to celebrate Everybody Draw Mohammed Day. Facebook groups and bloggers erupted with enthusiasm for the idea that respect cannot be forced and that we will not rein in our words out of fear – rather, that we will speak more loudly.

Brown’s comments concern us

owls of protest and calls for an apology from Rep. Larry Brown, R-Forsyth, the former mayor of Kernersville, have arisen since word has spread about an e-mail authored by Brown that contained slurs of homosexuals. Last week, Brown, whose district is made up of parts of Davidson and Forsyth counties, replied to an e-mail noting that N.C. House Speaker Joe Hackney, D-Orange, was to receive an award from a gay rights organization. Brown’s e-mail said: “I hope all the queers are thrilled to see him. I am sure there will be a couple legislative fruitloops there in the audience.” The executive director of the gay rights group, Equality North Carolina, has called for an apology by Brown. But we really don’t care whether he chooses to apologize to anyone about his remarks. That will be his decision. But what we are concerned about now is his ability to make rational decisions on any legislation that in any way is related to homosexuality. Numerous bills that are major issues related to homosexuality, such as gay and lesbian rights proposals, gay adoption legislation or defense of marriage acts, for examples, have or probably will sometime soon come before the Legislature. And then there is legislation that includes provisions which are in some way – maybe even a small way – related to homosexuality, such as anti-bullying and antiharassment laws that simply list homosexuals in a long list of protected classes. Brown’s use of homosexual slurs in this e-mail indicates a bias and a bigotry that says his votes on legislation in these matters could be impacted more by his bias and bigotry than the laws and constitutions that govern our state and nation. Certainly, legislators who debate these issues when they are proposals before the General Assembly are free to oppose them if they wish. But that opposition should be argued from a rational standpoint, not a position based in bigotry, which Brown’s comments seem to indicate.

righteous flags, and congratulations were posted. And then everyone forgot about Norris. In July, a radical Islamic cleric put out a call to murder Norris for the offense of not feeling bound by the rules of someone else’s religion. In September, on the advice of the FBI, she moved, stopped writing and changed her name. And barely anyone who had celebrated “her” holiday seemed to notice. After all, the job was done. Everyone had had their feeling of accomplishment. The back-pattings were history. Norris had been left to fend for herself as the only name worth knowing for those looking to instill a little obedience through fear. On Oct. 3, it happened again. Wiley Miller’s comic strip “Non Sequitur” contained the word “Mohammed” and was rejected by dozens of newspapers for fear that the Islamic prophet might be hidden somewhere in the art and provoke offense and threats. We

ought to be better than this. Despite disliking Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf’s Park 51 project, I supported him for several reasons, among which is that respect cannot be forced through offense or anger. I didn’t care for Pastor Terry Jones’ plan to burn Qurans on 9/11, but when people rioted over the issue, I had to support him. I didn’t appreciate being forced to the side of a man so ignorant as to equate a billion people with 19 terrorists, but even if he didn’t understand what he was doing, his opponents put him in the right. Again, respect cannot be forced. As Stone and Parker said through a South Park character, “Either it’s all OK, or none of it is.” I was thinking of skipping this topic until a friend asked me to choose another one for fear that “They” might do something. The thought of deliberately staying quiet after what Molly Norris went through made me ill, so here it is. This should all be about her, but it’s also about regret for taking her for granted. Though it hardly matters, I’m sorry, Molly. On EDM Day, I participated in a tiny way on the Enterprise online forums, promoting the “holiday” and labeling an emoticon as “Mohammed.” I forgot to sign in, making it an anonymous post. For what insignificant amount it is worth beside the contributions of Norris, Parker, Stone and Miller, I’m signing it now: @:-) > “Mohammed, Sideways” by Charles L. Honeycutt. CHARLES L.

This ‘citizen journalism’ fad is not journalism

do not believe in “citizen journalism.” Yes, I know that’s heresy. Yes, I know the old model has changed: the monologue is now a dialogue. Yes, I know ordinary people with cellphone cameras now “report” newsworthy events and bloggers are indispensable to the national dialogue. Yet I remain convinced that, with exceptions, citizen journalism is to journalism as pornography is to a Martin Scorsese film; while they may employ similar tools – i.e., camera, lighting – they aspire to different results. So I’ve had it up to here with people calling James O’Keefe III a journalist. Last year, you may recall, O’Keefe was lauded by political conservatives for “investigative journalism” that helped bring down ACORN, the financially troubled group whose sinister works included advocating for poor and middle-income people. O’Keefe, in a hidden camera sting, posed as a pimp and filmed some of the organization’s employees advising him on how to facilitate his supposed illicit business. It made him the toast of the blogosphere and earned him the admiration of Fox News. A resolution honoring him was even introduced in the House of Representatives. The resolution, which failed, praised O’Keefe and his conspirator, Hannah Giles, for “exemplary actions as government watchdogs and young journalists ...” A year later, the “young journalist’s” star is, putting it mildly, fading. Earlier this year, prosecutors declined to prosecute ACORN employees amid reports that the videos were selectively and misleadingly edited. Meanwhile, O’Keefe and three others were arrested for trying to tamper with telephones in the office of Louisiana Sen. Mary Landrieu. Now comes last week’s report of a bizarre plot to embarrass CNN correspondent Abbie Boudreau, who was seeking an interview. O’Keefe had apparently planned to lure her aboard a boat filled with sex toys and secretly record their meeting; thankfully, one of his henchwomen warned Boudreau off. THIS is journalism? No. Journalism is hours on the phone nail-

ing down the facts or pleading for the interview. Journalism is obsessing over nit-picky questions of fairness and context. Journalism is trying to get the story and get it right. “Citizen journalism,” we OPINION are told, is supposed to democratize all that, the tools Leonard of new technology making Pitts each of us a journalist unto ■■■ him or herself. It is a mark of the low regard in which journalism is held that that load of bull pucky ever passed as wisdom. If some guy had a wrench, would that make him a citizen mechanic? If some woman flashed a toy badge, would you call her a citizen police officer? Would you trust your health to a citizen doctor just because he produced a syringe? Of course not. But every Tom, Dick and Harriet with a blog is a “citizen journalist.” Worse, they are spreading like the common cold. Ask Shirley Sherrod if you don’t believe me. Sometimes it feels as if there are more “citizen journalists” than citizens. It is hard to know how to feel about that. After all, it used to be that you couldn’t enjoy freedom of the press unless you could afford to own a press. The Internet has opened the public square to more voices, and you can’t complain about that. But I don’t believe in citizen journalism because journalism – like any profession worthy of the name – has standards and ethics, and if you don’t sign on to those, I can no more trust you than I can a doctor who refused the Hippocratic oath or a lawyer who failed the bar exam. You cannot be a journalist – citizen or otherwise – if credibility matters less to you than ideology. So please, let’s find something else to call James O’Keefe III. If you want, I have a few ideas.

citizens of High Point would describe my abilities for service on the City Council. High Pointâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s needs and issues donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just stop at the city limit line. High Point needs elected officials to not only know what is going on within the city but far beyond its boundaries and how that affects the lives and futures of our citizens. Trustworthy, cooperative, and willing to learn and work collaboratively to solve problems are the traits that I hope the city administration and employees of the city of High Point would describe my service for the last eight years. City Council is a policymaking body and it is vital for Council members to work with the manager and the entire staff to reach longterm affordable solutions. Honest, passionate, well prepared and collaborative, are the traits that I hope my fellow Council members would use to describe my service over the last eight years. Working together in a collegial way to find solutions that best prepares High Point for the future is the job of every Council member. I have

worked hard to do just that for the past eight years. What does the future hold for High Point? You can count on the continued need to maintain and improve our infrastructure. We have hundreds of miles of streets, water, sewer and electric lines that all require constant maintenance, replacement and repair. Our police, fire and 911 systems constantly need more training and more modern equipment to meet the ever changing world. Quality of life areas like our library, theater and parks all need more investment to improve and provide the wide variety our citizens desire. In todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s government, you can count on the unexpected and we need Council members that are able to work together with the citizens, staff and each other to find creative solutions. I hope when you go to the polls in this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s election that you will remember and vote for Latimer Alexander for City Council at large. LATIMER ALEXANDER seeks one of two at-large seats.

here are some days in a personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life that always remain unforgettable â&#x20AC;&#x201C; days that are forever impressed on your mind and heart no matter how old you get. Today is one such day for me ... 32 years ago today, that is. On Oct. 7, 1978, Gralyn and I became husband and wife. Some had their doubts about us; after all, we only dated two months before we became engaged. After our 32 years together, however, there is no doubt at all in my mind that I did the right thing in marrying Gralyn Williams, and I will never forget that day. We were married by the Rev. Woodrow W. Robbins at Lexington Ave. Baptist Church surrounded by friends and family. My lifelong friend, Pat Corns Gabriel, played the organ, and our dear friend, Perry Holleman, was our soloist. My Dad walked me down the aisle, my sister was my maid of honor, and Gralynâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s brother was his best man. I smiled and Gralynâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s knees shook throughout the entire ceremony. The kindergarten class I was teaching that year all attended, and I have played the organ for the weddings of several of them since that day. I find myself surprised when someone remarks that 32 years is a long time to be married. When I think about it, though, that means pretty much all my adulthood has been spent sharing life and all that comes along with this one special man. So what have the two of us learned along the way? First, we have learned together that being married to the one God intended for you is wonderful. To be loved unconditionally by someone who knows you â&#x20AC;&#x153;warts and allâ&#x20AC;? on a daily basis through thick and thin is amazing and precious and one of lifeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s

its very best. Second, we have learned that a wonderful marriage is hard work! There is much lemonademaking to be done during 32 years with all the â&#x20AC;&#x153;lemonsâ&#x20AC;? that life deals you, but you do it and grow and are better and closer for it. In fact, we have learned that trials have given us a chance to see the faithfulness of God in all its beauty, and that truly has been an amazing thing! Finally, we have learned that marriage is so worth it. Sharing my life with Gralyn has been one of the easiest and the hardest and the most rewarding and the most exhausting and the most fabulous experiences of my life, and our children and grandchildren have been equally rewarding and exhausting and joyous! Whether the good Lord sees fit to give us five more years together or 25 more years, I am the grateful recipient of a treasure that will be forever a part of who I am. And today, on our 32nd wedding anniversary, I will pull out those wedding pictures, relive that unforgettable day in my mind once again, and thank God for my wonderful husband.

3 tornadoes tear across Arizona, damage homes BELLEMONT, Ariz. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Two tornadoes touched down in northern Arizona early Wednesday, derailing 28 cars of a parked freight train, blowing semis off the highway and smashing out the windows of dozens of homes. A third touched down later, but there were no immediate reports of damage or injuries. The first tornado hit Bellemont â&#x20AC;&#x201C; west of Flagstaff â&#x20AC;&#x201C; around 5:30 a.m. Wednesday and the second touched down east of the small community a short time later. The third was reported along Interstate 17 just south of Flagstaff around noon. Fifteen homes in Bellemont were so badly damaged that they were uninhabitable and the estimated 30 people who

Court considers fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pain vs. free speech WASHINGTON (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Supreme Court justices, in a rare public display of sympathy, strongly suggested Wednesday they would like to rule for a dead Marineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s father against fundamentalist church members who picketed his sonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s funeral â&#x20AC;&#x201C; but arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sure they can. Left unresolved after an hourlong argument that explored the limits of the First Amendment: Does the fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s emotional pain trump the protestersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; free speech rights? The difficulty of the constitutional issue was palpable in the courtroom as the justices weighed the case of Albert Snyder. His son died in Iraq in 2006, and members of a family-dominated church in Topeka, Kan., protested at the funeral to express their view that U.S.

lived in them were evacuated. Authorities were setting up a shelter at midmorning Wednesday, said Coconino County Sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Office spokesman Gerry Blair. About 30 RVs were damaged at a business in Bellemont that sells the vehicles and runs a campground for RVs. No serious injuries or deaths were reported. Two crew members were on the train when it was cast off the tracks around 6:30 a.m. PDT, said Burlington Northern-Santa Fe spokeswoman Lena Kent, but neither was hurt. The train was hauling cargo from ports in Los Angeles to the east and contained no hazardous materials. Severe weather is expected through today.

Margie Phelps, arguing the case for her familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Westboro Baptist Church, said the message of the protests at military funerals and elsewhere is, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Nation, hear this little church. If you want them to stop dying, stop sinning.â&#x20AC;? Phelpsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; argument did not endear her to the justices, who asked repeatedly whether Snyder had any recourse. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a case about exploiting a private familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s grief,â&#x20AC;? said Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

Ohio woman pretended to be boy to date teen girl CINCINNATI (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; A 31-year-old woman who posed as a teenage boy, cutting her hair and using male aliases so she could date teenage girls, pleaded guilty Wednesday and was sentenced to six months in jail. Patricia Dye, of Franklin, also was ordered to undergo a mental health evaluation and follow any recommended treatment. Prosecutors have said Dye tricked at least two teenage girls into dating her, although charges were filed in connection with only one, a 16-year-old. She was arrested in June after the girl ran away from home for a few days and stayed

with Dye for at least part of that time, authorities said. Dye pleaded guilty Wednesday Dye to three misdemeanor charges: sexual imposition, attempted sexual imposition and contributing to the delinquency of a minor. Warren County Juvenile Court Judge Mike Powell sentenced Dye to jail and put her on probation for two years. He also ordered Dye not to have contact with the victim or the victimâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s family and classified her as a sex offender.

Texas governor seeks Mexico presidentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s help in probe AUSTIN, Texas (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Texas Gov. Rick Perry said Wednesday he has asked Mexico President Felipe Calderon to call him in the next 48 hours to discuss search efforts for the body of an American reportedly shot to death on a border lake. Perry said he hopes the body has been retrieved by the time he gets the call. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If not, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not looking hard enough,â&#x20AC;? he told The Associated Press. Tiffany Hartley, of Colorado, says her husband, David, was shot by Mexican pirates on Falcon Lake last week as they were returning to the United States on Jet Skis. Falcon Lake is a

dammed section of the Rio Grande that has been plagued by pirates who rob boaters Calderon and fisherman who wander into Mexican waters. Hartleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s death would be the first killing on the lake. The Mexican Foreign Relations Ministry responded Wednesday with a statement that noted Mexicoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;condemnation of any act that endangers the lives of innocent citizens,â&#x20AC;? saying that the country â&#x20AC;&#x153;is committed to the investigation of those acts.â&#x20AC;?

Board to review breeder code BY DAVID NIVENS ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

GUILFORD COUNTY – Commissioners will consider tonight an animal breeder code that has divided the advisory committee which offered it. Commissioners listened Tuesday as dog breeders spoke against the upgrades while others representing animal protection groups urged passage. The Board of Commissioners will meet at 5:30 p.m. in the Old Courthouse in Greensboro. There was no way to reach perfection, said County Attorney Mark Payne who guided committee efforts. “Universal consensus is

not possible here,” Payne told commissioners and committee members attending a work session. The division remained unchanged from a public hearing last month in which breeders said they did not like the proposals which would require dog owners who have seven female dogs capable of breeding, to be inspected once a year. Breeder Danny Honeycutt said the proposed requirements, such as paying an inspection fee for any group of seven female dogs, would stop hobby breeders. He also claimed the committee was balanced against breeders. “The law is overreaching and is aimed at pure breed-

BREEDER CODE

----

Coverage: Guilford County’s animal control code, which covers Greensboro and unincorporated portions of the county, has not been revised since 1995. The City of High Point operates a separate animal control agency. Proposals: Dog breeders or others who sell at least 50 puppies a year would be inspected once a year. Owners of exotic pets also would be required to pay a fee. Penalties could range from educating breeders to fines and seizing dogs. ers and no one else,” Honeycutt said. Honeycutt also claimed the committee was balanced against breeders. As first proposed, the code would have exempted AKC registered breeder. The 18member advisory group lat-

er dropped the exemption. “We are not trying to hurt AKC or the other breeders,” said Marsha Williams, executive director of the Guilford County Animal Shelter. “Our goal was to provide tools to help county animal

control do a better job. We want to educate those who are not doing it right.” There are only seven AKC registered breeders in Guilford County, but there could be hundreds more who breed for show or sale. Republican Commissioner Billy Yow called the proposal unrealistic because the county could not collect enough fees to pay for the increased number of inspections. “We need to be a little more careful with this,” Yow said. “An ordinance has a place, but this one is overbearing on peoples’ lives.” dnivens@hpe.com|888-3626

Cashion boosts crisis center project BY DAVID NIVENS ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – Battered women deserve better treatment than most receive, and a Guilford County family crisis center would go a long way toward making things better, Guilford County Commissioner Kay Cashion told a gathering Wednesday at the YWCA. The Guilford County Board of Commissioners has endorsed the idea for development. “The center would provide a single portal for women with domestic violence issues,” Cashion told a luncheon gathering. “It could also help with child abuse and substance abuse problems.” The proposed agency could help a wide range of women. More than 13 percent of high school students report experiencing physical violence by a boyfriend or girlfriend. Among teens and women ages 15 to 44, domestic violence is the leading cause of violence among women. Earlier, many members of the luncheon group walked from the High Point Regional Hospital Emergency Room to the YWCA for their annual Walking Out on Domestic Violence observance.

Advocates and survivors use the program to discuss domestic violence. The program was sponsored in part by The Guilford County Coalition on Infant Mortality, a nonprofit organization formed to ensure that babies are born healthy and thrive beyond their first year of life. “We have to think about what women can do,” Cashion said. “Most of the population is women. We have the votes. But most women are just sitting around. We should ask for stronger laws and ask the candidates where they stand.” But there are other challenges too. More than 92 percent of abused women do not discuss their problems easily, Cashion said. “Women should not stand by and take abuse in any way,” Cashion said. Cooperation could go a long way toward supporting violence victims, said Commissioner John Parks of High Point. “We do need to work together and support each other through the health department and the Department of Social Services,” Parks said.

Suspect in death of chiefâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s daughter in NC court CHARLOTTE (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The man accused of killing the daughter of Concordâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s police chief was ordered held without bond Wednesday after an initial appearance in a North Carolina court. Michael Neal Harvey, 34, is charged with murder in the death of 23-yearold Valerie Hamilton, the daughter of Concord police chief Merl Hamilton. Dressed in an orange jail-issued jumpsuit, Harvey showed no emotion during a brief hearing in a Mecklenburg County court. Police returned Harvey to Charlotte on Tuesday. He was being held in New York after his arrest in Niagara Falls on Sept. 20, a day after Hamiltonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s body was found stuffed in a storage locker. Harvey has denied he killed Hamilton, saying she died in her sleep from

a drug overdose. During the hearing, Assistant District Attorney Beth Harvey Greene said attorney Joe Vonkalist had been appointed to represent Harvey. A telephone message left for Vonkalist was not immediately returned Wednesday afternoon. Greene also said Harvey was facing additional charges, including larceny of a motor vehicle, failure to register as a sex offender and a probation violation. Harvey mostly stared at his feet during the proceedings and made little eye contact with the district attorney or Judge Hugh Lewis, who set an Oct. 18 bond hearing. No one from the victimâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s family attended the hearing.

State building council may reconsider energy rules RALEIGH (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Efforts to require more energy-efficient homes in North Carolina sooner rather than later are alive after environmental groups and Gov.

Reward doubles in NC search for red wolf killer MANTEO (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Two animal advocacy groups are doubling a reward for information leading to the capture of whoever killed an endangered red wolf in Dare County. The Humane Society and the Humane Society Wildlife Land Trust said Wednesday theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re offering $2,500 for information leading to the arrest of whoever killed the animal. The federal Fish and

Wildlife Service is offering the same amount. Wildlife officials say the animal was found on Monday. In April, two other red wolves were killed nearby in Hyde County. The two groups also have a standing reward for information in those killings. Officials havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t said how the animals died, but they believe humans deliberately killed them.

A shadow resembling a bear is shown behind Whiteside Mountain in southern Jackson County near Cashiers. The â&#x20AC;&#x153;Shadow of the Bearâ&#x20AC;? shows up from mid-October through early November as the sun sets behind Whiteside Mountain. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best seen on clear days around 5:30 p.m., with the show lasting for about a half-hour.

RALEIGH (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The Wake County school board, which voted to ditch a student assignment plan meant to replace one based on diversity, will still move toward community-based schools, says the board member who split from the coalition supporting the new plan. But the boardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s plan must abide by a policy that guarantees, among other things, a base school assignment within proximity to a studentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s home, said Debra Goldman, the boardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vice chair and one of the Republicans who voted earlier to drop an assignment plan based on diversity. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are going to get one chance as a board to get this right â&#x20AC;&#x201D; one chance to do this plan,â&#x20AC;? Goldman said Wednesday, the morning after

a contentious meeting that revealed a fracture in the previous GOP majority. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Any time you start moving children, it just creates turmoil. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not like you move them and then say, you know what, letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s move them back. So I would question why you wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want feedback from the public and other board members.â&#x20AC;? The Wake County board has nine members â&#x20AC;&#x201D; four Democrats, four Republicans and a GOP chairman who votes if thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a tie. The board voted 5-3 Tuesday night to reject a 16zone assignment plan after Goldman decided to vote with the Democrats. Chairman Ron Margiotta didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t vote since there was no chance of a tie. Goldman had said in recent days that she believed her concerns about the zone assignment plan werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t

being heard by the school assignment committee, headed by member John Tedesco. At the meeting Tuesday, her concerns came to a head. The board approved a motion, made by Goldman, that said: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Any and all efforts to create a zone-based assignment model will cease effective immediately.â&#x20AC;? She reiterated her support for community-based schools but said the board must adhere to its own policy on assignments and must listen to parents, students and all board members, not just those on the committee. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Yes, I absolutely believe in community-based schools, but I do not believe we need to totally tear down the system and create a different plan,â&#x20AC;? she said Wednesday.

Conâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s story could change after release from prison

ear Abby: I am a parole officer, and while I agree with and support your response to â&#x20AC;&#x153;Smitten in New Yorkâ&#x20AC;? (Aug. 6), I would like to offer an additional comment. People can and do change their lives while incarcerated. However, when they are in a controlled environment, their changed lives on the outside are still in their imaginations. Many inmates who make very positive plans for their future when theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re released, discover life â&#x20AC;&#x153;on the outsâ&#x20AC;? doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t unfold the way they imagined it would. Some of them deal with substance abuse issues, mental illness, brain injuries and a lack of education and life skills. I would caution â&#x20AC;&#x153;Smittenâ&#x20AC;? not to become too involved with her pen pal after his release until he has proven his ability to be the partner she believes and hopes he will be. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Kelly in Washington State Dear Kelly: Thank you for your comments. I received many letters from former pen pals of inmates, all advising â&#x20AC;&#x201C; pleading with â&#x20AC;&#x201C; â&#x20AC;&#x153;Smittenâ&#x20AC;? to run as fast as she can from this man. Today, however, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll print some from those in the know from the â&#x20AC;&#x153;inside.â&#x20AC;? Read on: Dear Abby: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Smittenâ&#x20AC;? and countless other women (and men) who write and visit inmates do not fully understand the situation theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re potentially putting them-

selves in. Any one inmate receives numerous letters, graphic photos and ADVICE visitors, and not Dear all from Abby the same â&#x2013; â&#x2013; â&#x2013; â&#x20AC;&#x153;potential special person.â&#x20AC;? Inmates live and breathe a 24/7 confined life, with nothing to do but find ways to entertain or protect themselves. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not far-fetched that an inmate may be under the control of a gang affiliation and need to do certain things to gain a â&#x20AC;&#x153;repâ&#x20AC;? inside the walls. They have plenty of time to consider the who, how, what and wheres of surviving in jail. Sure, some inmates have taken a different road, but is â&#x20AC;&#x153;Smittenâ&#x20AC;? ready to bring a con into her family in the hopes that heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s telling the truth? I work in a maximum security prison in New York. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Smitten,â&#x20AC;? I strongly urge you to reconsider communicating with this inmate. And I hope youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re NOT sending him money or letting him know your financial situation. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Seen From The Inside Dear Abby: I am a retired corrections officer from the state of Florida, and this woman has fallen for the most common game played by inmates. One person writes the letter and the others pay him for it

with cigarettes or other items they can buy in the canteen. Inmates will come up with amazing fictions to make people feel sorry for them, or send them money to be put in their inmate trust fund. I can guarantee â&#x20AC;&#x153;Smittenâ&#x20AC;? that this inmate has absolutely no feelings for her and is only using her. If sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s that gullible â&#x20AC;&#x201C; or stupid â&#x20AC;&#x201C; she deserves to be used. If sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s that lonely, she should get a dog! â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Chris in Florida Dear Abby: Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m a paralegal who has worked for a criminal defense attorney in Florida for many years. Florida has a comprehensive Web site and its offender information search posts not only photos, but also lists prior incarcerations and case information about the crime for which inmates are presently serving. To find the state prison site, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Smittenâ&#x20AC;? should input â&#x20AC;&#x153;Florida Department of Correctionsâ&#x20AC;? and look for the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Offenderâ&#x20AC;? information search. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Smittenâ&#x20AC;? is playing with fire, Abby, and if she gets burned it will be because sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d rather believe the fantasy and ignore the reality. She needs to do her homework before accepting this manâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s declarations as truth. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Formerly Burned in Florida DEAR ABBY is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.

GARDENING 101

uestion: Help, last weekend I had these awful brown bugs that had congregated around my windows, and a few even got inside. What are they and how can I get rid of them? Answer: I can sympathize with you, as I had the same problem. These are brown marmorated stink bugs. The first reported occurrence of the brown marmorated stink bug in the United States came at Allentown, Pa., in 2001, but they are suspected as having been there earlier. Since that time they have moved into most states on the East Coast and many states westward across the country. his Asian stink bug feeds on a variety of hosts in the landscape including butterfly bush (Buddleia), pawlonia, hibiscus, zinnia and sunflower, to name a few. They also attack fruit trees (ornamental or otherwise). They have potential to do damage to commercial apple, peach, soybean, cotton and other crops. Perhaps the biggest problem for homeowners is the overwintering behavior where the bugs may collect seeking shelter in homes and structures, similar to the multicolored Asian lady beetle. They donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t harm people, but can give off an unpleasant odor when crushed or vacuumed. Appearance in houses begins about late SeptemberOctober. As for control, the best thing is exclusion. Seal and caulk all areas that may give access to the wall or house. If this is not completely successful and stink bugs are entering the living quarters, seal or caulk around baseboards, window sills, and any points at which you may detect them coming into the structure. Aerosol foggers (flea bombs) are not generally suggested. They may kill

some exposed bugs, but will not kill bugs in the wall, and the danger of fire hazard when using these products adds to the risk of their use. A handheld aerosol spray can product may be somewhat effective in spots where they routinely collect, but vacuuming is a pesticide-free alternative, though it may be a little more work. It may be best to use a piece of ladiesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; hose over the hose end and discard them soon after so the vacuum cleaner does not hold the stink long after the bugs are gone. Some people use a dedicated shop vacuum so as not to impart the odor to their household vacuum cleaner. Currently, feeding and mating attractants are being tested. Here are suggestions for keeping them out: â&#x20AC;˘ Adjust or install tight-fitting sweeps or thresholds at the bottom of exterior doors. â&#x20AC;˘ Install weather stripping around other parts of the door frame. â&#x20AC;˘ Seal utility openings where air conditioner pipes, phone, cable TV and other wires enter the foundation and siding. Holes can be plugged with caulk, cement, urethane foam, or copper mesh. â&#x20AC;˘ Caulk around windows, doors, siding and fascia boards. â&#x20AC;˘ Keep window screens in good condition and install insect screening behind attic gable vents.

Strep infections have new complication

ear Dr. Donohue: My question concerns PANDAS, pediatric autoimmune neuropsychiatric disorders associated with streptococcal infection. Nineteen years ago, when my son was 12, he had a mild case of scarlet fever. Shortly after, he exhibited signs of obsessive-compulsive disorder. I read about the relationship of OCD with strep infection. I took him to doctors, neurologists and psychiatrists. They gave me a blank look when I brought this up. My now-31-yearold son is still on OCD medicines, but they do not help. Is it possible that the strep still lurks in him? – R.H.

BLONDIE

B.C.

The existence and diagnosis of PANDAS is fraught with controversy. The theory is that in a few susceptible individuals, a strep infection gives rise to or worsens obsessive-compulsive disorder or tics. With obsessive-compulsive disorder, people block the conscious intrusion of a disturbing thought by performing repetitive rituals like constant hand-washing, repeatedly checking the stove to be sure it’s turned off or forever straightening the fringes of a carpet. Tics are involuntary movements, such as facial grimacing or windmilllike twirling of the arms or other such purposeless actions. The basis of

SNUFFY SMITH

the theory is that antibodies induced by the strep germ affect parts of the HEALTH brain that trigger Dr. Paul OCD or Donohue tics. The ■■■ theory hasn’t been accepted by all authorities. PANDAS happens between the ages of 3 and puberty. How long it lasts isn’t known. The condition has been mostly studied in children. Whether it persists into adulthood is questionable. As for treatment, current recommendations are to treat the strep infection, when present, as strep infections would be treated (with penicillin) and to treat the OCD or tics with medicines specifically designed for them. Your son wouldn’t benefit from strep treatment at his age unless, of course, he has a current infection. The strep germ doesn’t lurk in the body after the acute infection. Antibodies to the strep germ, however, can be present for long periods. The PANDAS story is still unfolding. Dear Dr. Donohue: I am an 85-year-old man who was recently put on Coumadin by my cardiologist. I am an avid veg-

etable eater. I have been told I cannot eat greens, such as spinach, broccoli and Brussels sprouts, and must stay away from cranberries. Will you clarify this situation for me? – G.G. Coumadin prevents unwanted clots from forming in blood vessels. Popularly it’s called a blood thinner, even though the blood doesn’t become thin. It’s an anticoagulant. It achieves this goal by limiting the action of vitamin K in producing effective blood-clotting proteins by the liver. If a person on Coumadin eats large quantities of vitamin K-containing foods, that person could block Coumadin’s blood thinning. Collard greens, spinach, salad greens, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage and Bibb lettuce are rich sources of vitamin K. So long as you are consistent in the amounts eaten of these vegetables and so long as your blood tests show that you are getting enough Coumadin, you can continue as you have done throughout your life. I don’t understand the cranberry ban. DR. DONOHUE regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but he will incorporate them in his column whenever possible. Readers may write him or request an order form of available health newsletters at P.O. Box 536475, Orlando, FL 32853-6475

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Gleeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; cast beats out Beatles for Billboard record NEW YORK (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The â&#x20AC;&#x153;Gleeâ&#x20AC;? cast has surpassed the Beatles for the most appearances on the Billboard Hot 100 chart by a non-solo act. The cast of the Fox television musical series about a high school glee club has six debuts on the chart this week. That gives it a total of 75 songs on the chart to the Beatlesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; 71. The showâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s soundtrack got a boost after this

weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s episode featuring the music of Britney Spears. Elvis Presley still leads overall with 108 songs to chart on the Hot 100. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s followed by James Brown with 91, then â&#x20AC;&#x153;Glee.â&#x20AC;? The Beatles are sixth, behind Ray Charles and Aretha Franklin. Lil Wayne, Stevie Wonder and Jay-Z round out the Top 10. Nielsen SoundScan says the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Gleeâ&#x20AC;? cast has sold 2.8 million albums.

ESPN producer charged with public indecency FARMINGTON, Conn. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; An ESPN producer has been arrested on a public indecency charge after a peeping Tom complaint in a Connecticut apartment complex. Police Lt. Marshall Porter tells the Hartford Courant newspaper that

Neil Goldberg, 52, turned himself in Tuesday to face charges including public indecency, trespass, disorderly conduct and breach of peace. Goldberg is the coordinating producer of motorsports coverage for Bristol-based ESPN.

Police say Goldberg admitted watching through a window last month as a neighbor got dressed at an apartment in Farmington, a wealthy suburb of Hartford. A woman walking her dog had reported seeing

a man outside on a stool peering through the window and masturbating. He has been released from police custody after posting a $1,000 bond.

NEW YORK (AP) – A new project aims to introduce Bob Dylan’s music to young people by having buzz-worthy indie artists cover one of his best-known albums in a digitalonly format. “Subterranean Homesick Blues: A Tribute to Bob Dylan’s ‘Bringing It All Back Home’” went on sale at iTunes on Tuesday and features artists like J. Tillman of Fleet Foxes; the Morning Blenders; Peter Moren of Peter, Bjorn and John; and Mirah tackling songs from Dylan’s 1965 “going electric” album. Its producer is Jim Sampas, who has done similar tributes to Bruce Springsteen’s “Nebraska” album and the Beatles’ “Rubber Soul.” Dylan’s album, a mixture of acoustic and electric tunes, included songs like “Maggie’s Farm,” ‘’Mr. Tambourine Man,” ‘’It’s Alright, Ma (I’m Only Bleeding)” and “Subterranean Homesick Blues.” “My desire was to show the brilliance of his songwriting and bring it to a younger audience that might not be aware of his work,” Sampas said. “A lot of younger musicians embrace Dylan’s work, but the overall population doesn’t have as much knowledge.” The project has a mix of fairly faithful covers and some interesting interpretations.

HEART SHIFT South misplayed the hand and performed an encore in the postmortem. He must set up the diamonds but doesn’t want West to get in for a heart shift. South must cover the first spade with dummy’s king and discard a diamond – a loser-on-loser. South ruffs the next spade, takes the ace of diamonds, ruffs a diamond, leads a trump to dummy and ruffs a diamond. He can return with a trump to pitch two hearts on the good diamonds.

CROSSWORD

Thursday, October 7, 2010 CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Shawn Ashmore, 31; Rachel McAdams, 34; Toni Braxton, 44; Yo-Yo Ma, 55 HAPPY BIRTHDAY: Opportunities are abundant, so choices will be hard to make. Obstacles will prevail if you lack motivation. The choice to sink or swim will be yours. You are in control, whether you know it or not, so don’t hesitate when action and response are required to get what you want and when. Your numbers are 4, 9, 15, 26, 37, 40, 44 ARIES (March 21-April 19): Don’t make snap judgments. A relationship may need some work, especially if you haven’t been communicating well. You can’t let anyone bully you, but be patient and try to understand both sides of any issue that arises. ★★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Get your work done and out of the way quickly so you can do something with someone you like. A peer may try to make you look bad. Don’t get involved in a war of words with someone who can affect your future. ★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Socializing, entertaining or networking will all bring about positive change. Offer valid information and well-thoughtout strategy and you will avoid someone trying to strong-arm you into taking less or giving up too much. ★★★★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): Don’t make promises you cannot keep. You can expect to face adversity and opposition from someone you live with or who has jurisdiction over what you can and cannot do. Deal with the demands being put on you quickly, leaving time for fun with a friend or lover. ★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Getting together with a good friend will help you deal with any troubles you are facing at home. Personal conflicts can lead to physical exhaustion if you don’t take a break and rethink your next move. ★★★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You can learn a lot about human nature from someone you feel akin to. Share your thoughts and experience and you will feel much better about your past, present and future. Expand your interests and your friendships. ★★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Don’t let your emotions get the better of you. If someone pushes your buttons or makes you anxious, back away calmly until you have better control. Impulsive moves on your part will not solve anything. ★★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): There will be underlying facts that you must face up to. If you haven’t pulled your weight or done your share, now is a good time to offer something thoughtful and meaningful. Love will be enhanced if you speak from the heart. ★★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Don’t let old goals, ideas or hobbies keep you from excelling in the present. Once you know where your talent lies, you will have no trouble moving forward and incorporating your old plans with your new. ★★★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): It isn’t a bad thing to make a change, nor will it hurt your reputation to admit you might have made a mistake. It’s what you do to correct anything you’ve done wrong that will count. The follow-up can be just as rewarding in the end. ★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Don’t let love cloud your vision. Know in your heart what you must do and follow through. You will know how much you are loved by the support and acceptance you receive from the people to whom you are closest. ★★★★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): You have to look at the big picture and decide what is the best scenario for you. Love and romance are on the rise. Wisdom regarding partnerships is the key. Recognize who is on your side and who isn’t. ★★★

BRIDGE

Mistakes are inevitable, and to make one is OK. (If you’re lucky, you may get away with it.) Just don’t try for an encore. In today’s deal, South played low from dummy on the first spade, ruffed in his hand and started to set up dummy’s diamonds. When he led to the ace, West followed with the jack, and East saw what was coming and unblocked his queen. West won the next diamond and shifted to a heart, and the defense got two hearts. “My opponents always do the right thing,” South grumbled. “The contract was unmakable against that defense.”

HOROSCOPE

DAILY QUESTION You hold: S A 10 8 6 5 2 H A J 6 D K Q 9 C 8. Your partner opens one diamond, you respond one spade, he bids two clubs and you temporize with two hearts. Partner next bids three diamonds. What do you say? ANSWER: Partner has six diamonds, four clubs and extra strength. With minimum values, he’d have limited his strength by rebidding two diamonds. Your prospects are uncertain, but slam must have a chance. Bid 4NT (Blackwood) or six diamonds. East dealer Both sides vulnerable

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

Capsule reviews of films now showing at area theaters “Buried” – Ryan Reynolds has been cast as a sardine. He’s packed tightly in an underground coffin, a setting from which the film never strays. It’s a 94-minute exercise in minimalism, the sort of filmmaking puzzle Hitchcock reveled in. “Buried” and its Spanish director, Rodrigo Cortes, don’t deserve the comparison, but the film – written by Chris Sparling – succeeds as an intriguing if absurd B-movie. Its biggest surprise is that it’s not pure torture. Paul is a contract truck driver in Iraq whose convoy was ambushed and he’s being held hostage for ransom. He has a phone that still miraculously gets service, and he uses it to try to summon help. The film’s politics are

fuzzy; it works better in representing the frustration of hold music and disinterested receptionists. Whatever the reasons that draw us to the movies, spending an hour-and-a-half trapped in a box with Ryan Reynolds isn’t one of them. Two and a half stars out of four. – Jake Coyle, AP Entertainment Writer “Freakonomics” – Baby names, sumo wrestlers, crack prices and high school grades all collide here with mixed results. Acclaimed, award-winning documentarians Morgan Spurlock, Alex Gibney, Eugene Jarecki, Rachel Grady and Heidi Ewing, and Seth Gordon take on various sections of the New York Times

best-seller, which forced readers to reconsider how the world works by looking at it from new perspectives and asking different questions. University of Chicago economics professor Steven D. Levitt and journalist Stephen J. Dubner, who wrote “Freakonomics: A Rogue Economist Explores the Hidden Side of Everything,” appear throughout to explain their theories and bounce off each other with the wellhoned patter of a veteran comedy team. The film as a whole, though, isn’t as reliable. It has its high points, including Spurlock’s lead-off segment on whether your name dictates your destiny. Meanwhile, Jarecki’s section on whether abortion has helped lower

America’s crime rate is sure to stir debate. But the problem is, any of these topics could have been expanded into its own film and been more fully engaging. Trying to tackle each of them in about 20 minutes or so often feels too cursory. Two stars out of four. – Christy Lemire, AP Movie Critic “Let Me In” – When the Swedish horror film “Let the Right One In” debuted a couple of years ago, it was deservedly hailed as one of the most original vampire tales to come along in a while. Now, it’s been remade as an American thriller, but rest assured, much of what made the first film so special remains intact. Aside from making a few structural

tweaks, writer-director Matt Reeves (“Cloverfield”) has stayed extremely faithful in his adaptation, right down to chunks of dialogue, details like the Rubik’s Cube the kids play with, and the jungle gym in their courtyard – even some camera angles. Reeves also smartly recreated the sense of tension that built in the original film’s stillness, and similarly, the quiet moments that allowed the two young characters to forge their bond. On the surface, both films are about a bullied boy and the 12-year-old vampire girl who comes to his rescue. But really, they’re about a couple of lonely misfits who are drawn together – the sweetness in the way they strengthen each

other, and the sadness of the realization that their friendship can’t last – and Reeves gets that right, too. “Let Me In” is also gory, startling and intense, as you’d expect from any worthwhile vampire story, although Reeves makes the violence more explicit, which wasn’t terribly necessary. Still, the relationship at the film’s core always works, with excellent casting choices in Kodi Smit-McPhee and Chloe Grace Moretz. Three stars out of four. – Christy Lemire, AP Movie Critic

Any successful bidder shall be required to tender the remaining balance of the successful bid amount in cash or certified funds at the time the Substitute Trustee tenders to such bidder, or attempts to deliver to such bidder, a deed for the Property. Should such successful bidder fail to pay the full balance of the successful bid at that time, that bidder shall remain liable on the bid as provided by North Carolina General Statutes Section 45-21.30.

The Property is being sold subject to all prior and superior deeds of trust, liens, unpaid taxes, restrictions, easements, assessments, leases, and other matters, if any, which, as a matter of law, survive the foreclosure of the Deed of Trust, provided that the inclusion of this clause in this Notice of Substitute Trusteeʼs Sale of Real Estate shall not be deemed to validate or otherwise give effect to any such matter or other right which, as a matter of law, does not survive the foreclosure of the Deed of Trust.

Playoff near-perfection PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Talk about a postseason debut. Roy Halladay threw the second no-hitter in postseason history, leading the Philadelphia Phillies over the Cincinnati Reds 4-0 in Game 1 of the NL division series on Wednesday. Don Larsen is the only other pitcher to throw a postseason nohitter. He threw a perfect game for the New York Yankees in the 1956 World Series against Brooklyn. The 54th anniversary of Larsen’s gem is this Friday. “It’s surreal, it really is,” Halladay said. “I just wanted to pitch here, to pitch in the postseason. To go out and have a game like that, it’s a dream come true.” Halladay took the Year of the Pitcher into the postseason. The excitement spread beyond Citizens Bank Park — the last two outs were shown on the video board at Target Field, where the Twins were preparing to play the Yankees, and Minnesota fans cheered. The All-Star right-hander, who tossed a perfect game at Florida on May 29, dominated the Reds with a sharp fastball and a devastating slow curve in his first playoff start. The overmatched Reds never came close to a hit. Halladay allowed only runner, walking Jay Bruce on a full count with two outs in the fifth, and struck out eight. Halladay spent 12 seasons with

Philadelphia Phillies pitcher Roy Halladay (left) celebrates with catcher Carlos Ruiz (51) after no-hitting the Cincinnati Reds 4-0 during Game 1 of a National League Division Series on Wednesday. Toronto, far from the postseason. A trade last offseason brought him to the defending two-time NL champions, and gave him this chance. “This is what you come here for,” Halladay said. “It’s a good team, they know how to win. ... It’s been a great year, a fun year,

we obviously have a ways to go.” With a sellout crowd standing in the ninth and chanting “Let’s Go, Doc!” Halladay got a loud ovation when he jogged to the mound to start the inning. Ramon Hernandez popped out to second baseman Chase Utley for the first out. Pinch-hitter

Miguel Cairo then fouled out to third baseman Wilson Valdez. Halladay then retired Brandon Phillips on a tapper in front of the plate to end it. Catcher Carlos Ruiz pounced on the ball, getting down on his knee as the ball rolled near Phillips’ bat, and made a strong throw for the final out.

six career postseason starts. He went 4-0 with a 1.56 ERA in five starts for the Philadelphia Phillies in 2009, including 2-0 with a 2.81 ERA against the New York Yankees in the World Series. The Rangers ace lost to the Rays three times during the regular sea-

son, however the AL East champions were no match for the 2008 AL Cy Young Award winner this time. The Rangers, in the playoffs for the first time in 11 years, stopped a ninegame postseason losing streak that began in 1996. Nelson Cruz and Bengie Molina homered for

the AL West champions. Darren O’Day and Darren Oliver pitched the eighth, and rookie Neftali Feliz worked out of a ninth-inning jam by striking out the final two batters. Price, a 19-game winner, allowed five runs and nine hits in 62⁄3 innings. He struck eight.

games start around noon on VERSUS. I understand the NHL is an international game. There were 32 Finnish-born players on NHL rosters at the start of the week, including three each for the Hurricanes and Wild. The NHL showcases great Russians, Swedes, Czechs, Slovaks, Germans, Frenchmen, Poles, Austrians and Norwegians just to name a few of the other countries represented on league rosters. But that doesn’t mean the league should stage season openers outside of Canada and the United States. Opening day/night ranks as one of the

most special times of the year, be it baseball, basketball, football or hockey. Fans in the various home markets deserve the chance to see their first games in person instead of on TV feeds from thousands of miles away. There are plenty of other regular-season dates for special European, Asian, Australian or African NHL showcases. I think it’s a terrific idea to expand the NHL into those markets – just not on opening day.

YOUR COMMUNITY. YOUR NEWSPAPER.

– MARK MCKINNEY ENTERPRISE SPORTS EDITOR

When Randy Moss first came to Minnesota 12 years ago, he electrified a stagnant franchise and immediately turned the Vikings into Super Bowl contenders. Now the Vikings need him to do it again. The New England Patriots traded the seven-time Pro Bowl receiver on Wednesday, sending him back to the Vikings.

BASKETBALL Bobcats fall

FAYETTEVILLE, N.C. (AP) — Jeff Green scored 13 of his 25 points in the third quarter and Oklahoma City beat the Charlotte Bobcats 97-93 on Wednesday night in the Thunder’s preseason opener. James Harden had 16 points, Serge Ibaka had 12 points and 11 rebounds and NBA scoring champion Kevin Durant added 12 for the Thunder. They never trailed in the fourth quarter and held the Bobcats without a field goal during the final seven minutes. With owner Michael Jordan looking on from a courtside seat, Tyrus Thomas scored 16 points and Gerald Wallace and Boris Diaw added 14 apiece for the Bobcats (0-2). The Bobcats closed within one when Derrick Brown’s 3-pointer made it 89-88 with 7:07 remaining. But they managed just five points — on four free throws by Brown and one by Matt Rogers — the rest of the way. A night earlier, Charlotte managed just 25 points in the second half of an 87-72 loss at Cleveland. At least this time, things clicked in the third quarter before the offense vanished in the fourth. The Bobcats used a 20-3 run shortly after halftime to erase a 12-point deficit. The Bobcats held Oklahoma City to one field goal in a 6 1/2-minute span and took advantage of some assertive play at the other end of the court from point guard D.J. Augustin, who lofted a pretty fast-break alley-oop to Wallace two possessions before his 3-pointer made it 71-68 — the Bobcats’ first lead since midway through the first quarter. Brown finished with 12 points and Augustin scored 10 for Charlotte, which is adjusting to life without Raymond Felton — who left via free agency this offseason — and once again played without Augustin’s backup. Shaun Livingston missed his second straight game with soreness in his left knee.

HYDER, WOOD BROTHERS PART WAYS

â&#x20AC;&#x201C;-

ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

TRINITY- The tenure of Trinity resident David Hyder as crew chief of the Wood Brothersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; No. 21 Fords in the Cup series is over. The team released a statement Wednesday announcing that it and Hyder were parting ways effective immediately. Hyder had been crew chief for the team since Aug. 2008 and helped it back to respectability after going through a period when it struggled to qualify for races. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It took somebody like David to get us back on track, and he did it almost single-handedly,â&#x20AC;? team co-owner Eddie Wood said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Len and I and the entire Wood Brothers organization are eternally grateful to him for his contributions to this race team. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a shame we werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t able to stay together and finish what we started.â&#x20AC;? Wood expects to name an interim crew chief later this week. Although the team showed signs of improvement, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only top-10 finish since 2006 was posted by Marcos Ambrose at Watkins Glen in Aug. 2008. Elliottâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best finishes in 22 starts since the beginning of last season have been 16th on four occasions.

Peppers holds no love for Panthers moneyâ&#x20AC;? as part of a roster overhaul thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s produced the NFLâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s youngest team. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a business decision. I can understand and respect that,â&#x20AC;? the 30-year-old Peppers said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The problem that I had was they tried to turn the tables and make it look like I wanted out no matter what. Really, I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have the option to stay. It was never offered to stay.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;So when I say it ended a little sour, I felt like it could have been a little more respectful. At least a phone call to say, â&#x20AC;&#x2122;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s

CHARLOTTE (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Julius Peppers described his offseason departure from Carolina as â&#x20AC;&#x153;a little sourâ&#x20AC;? on Wednesday, claiming the Panthers tried to paint him in a bad light after deciding to let him leave in free agency. In a conference call with reporters ahead of Peppersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; return to Charlotte on Sunday with the Chicago Bears, the fivetime Pro Bowl defensive end said he was under the impression the Panthers decided to â&#x20AC;&#x153;do away with anybody who is making a significant amount of

been good. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going in a different direction. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to let you go.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; They couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even give me that.â&#x20AC;? Peppers also disputed Panthers general manager Marty Hurneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s earlier claims that they twice tried to make him the NFLâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s highest-paid defensive player. Peppers said that happened only once, after the 2007 season, a deal he rejected. Hurney didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t return a message seeking comment, releasing only a short statement that didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t address Peppersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; criticism.

Cutler returns to practice LAKE FOREST, Ill. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler was back practicing Wednesday after leaving last weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s game against the New York Giants be-

cause of a concussion. Cutler was in uniform and participating in passing drills in the early portion of practice that was open to reporters after taking a brutal pounding

in Sundayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 17-3 loss. Cutlerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s status for this weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s game at Carolina was unclear.He did not address the media as he usually does before practices on Wednesday.

Carolina Hurricanes captain Eric Staal skates during practice Tuesday in Helsinki, Finland, ahead of todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s NHL opener against the Minnesota Wild.

Hurricanes count on youth RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The Carolina Hurricanes didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make any flashy free-agent signings this offseason. Didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t lock up any aging holdovers with long-term contracts, either. The focus in the Hurricanesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; front office instead seemed to be on getting younger. One of the NHLâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s oldest teams in recent seasons suddenly qualifies as one of its youngest. With only four players who will be in their 30s this season,

Carolina is hoping its influx of younger players â&#x20AC;&#x201D; including some in leadership roles â&#x20AC;&#x201D; will provide enough of a spark to carry them through the grind of an 82-game season, starting Thursday in the opener against Minnesota in Helsinki, Finland. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I know we have a young group, and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something we have to look at and concentrate on growing each game,â&#x20AC;? defenseman Tim Gleason said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;

The dressing room canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t help but skew younger, with the departures of two alternate captains and elder statesmen: 40-year-old center Rod Brindâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Amour, who retired, and 38-year-old wing Ray Whitney, who left via free agency. With them gone, the team awarded the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Aâ&#x20AC;? to 21-year-old forward Brandon Sutter and the 27year-old Gleason. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll join 25-year-old captain Eric Staal to form one of the youngest leadership

IMF sees improving global economy WASHINGTON (AP) — China and other emerging powers are offsetting weakness in the United States and Europe and will likely lift the global economy this year and next. That’s the latest outlook of the International Monetary Fund, which predicts the world economy will expand 4.8 percent this year and 4.2 percent next year. That would far surpass last year’s 0.6 percent decline, the worst since World War II. The IMF’s forecast for worldwide growth this year is 0.2 percentage point more than its previous estimate in July. The international lending agency predicts the U.S. economy will grow 2.6 percent this year, below its previous estimate

BRIEFS

Dollar tumbles on Fed expectations NEW YORK (AP) — The euro moved above $1.39 Wednesday for the first time since February, while the yen struck a 15-year high. The dollar is sliding broadly because investors expect that the Federal Reserve will increase its support for the U.S. economy, driving down interest rates and dinging the currency’s appeal for investors. The International Monetary Fund forecast Wednesday that the U.S. economy will grow just 2.6 percent this year, below its previous estimate of 3.3 percent, and that growth will slow to 2.3 percent in 2011.

Oil prices rise with falling dollar NEW YORK (AP) — Oil prices rose Wednesday as the dollar continued to weaken and stocks held their ground after Tuesday’s big rally. Benchmark crude rose $1.07 to $83.89 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange.

Yum CEO: No ‘quick fix’ for KFC in US LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — The top executive at restaurant company Yum Brands Inc. says there’s no “quick fix” as it tries to turn around its struggling KFC operations in the United States. KFC’s sales were a drag on Yum’s overall U.S. operations in the third quarter, offsetting sales growth at Pizza Hut and Taco Bell. KFC on Tuesday reported an 8 percent drop in sales at restaurants open at least a year in the most recent quarter.

DILBERT

of 3.3 percent, and 2.3 percent next year. The IMF’s forecast, released Wednesday, points to lingering weakness in the United States and Europe after the worst recession since the Great Depression. The agency says the global economy will require a balancing act: Countries with huge trade and budget deficits such as the United States will need to boost exports. And countries with big trade surpluses such as China must reduce their dependency on exports and boost domestic demand. The IMF forecast was prepared for the annual fall meetings of the 187nation IMF and its sister lending organization, the World Bank. Finance of-

ficials from the Group of 20, representing the world’s richest nations and fast-growing developing countries, are scheduled to hold talks Friday. Obama administration officials said they planned to press other G-20 countries such as China to honor commitments they’ve made to reduce their huge trade surpluses, which come at the expense of other countries. Such trade imbalances contributed to the global downturn. The prediction of 2.6 percent growth for the United States this year is historically weak coming after a recession. But it marks a sharp reversal from the 2.6 percent decline in U.S. activity last year.

Geithner presses China on currency reform WASHINGTON (AP) — Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner stepped up pressure on China to make more progress in moving toward flexible exchange rates. Geithner said Wednesday that it is particularly important to see appreciation in countries where the currency is signifiGeithner cantly undervalued. Geithner never mentioned China, but the speech was clearly aimed at the world’s second-largest economy. U.S. manufacturers contend that the Chinese yuan is undervalued by as much as 40 percent, giving Chinese companies a significant competitive advantage. Geithner’s comments came in advance of upcoming global finance meetings. Geithner said the problem was that when large economies kept their currency undervalued, it encouraged other nations to

do the same. “The collective impact of this behavior risks either causing inflation and asset bubbles in emerging economies or else depressing consumption growth,” Geithner said. Geithner’s remarks came in a speech at the Brookings Institution where he previewed the U.S. goals for upcoming meetings of the 187-nation International Monetary Fund and its sister lending institution, the World Bank. In addition to those talks, which begin Friday, finance officials of the Group of 20 major economies are scheduled to meet on the sidelines. The G-20 nations includes the world’s richest nations plus major emerging countries such as China and Brazil. U.S. officials said they will push the G-20 nations to honor commitments made a year ago in Pittsburgh to work to rebalance the global economy. Doing so would promote more sustainable growth and avoid a repeat of the severe recession.

Retail sales rise NEW YORK (AP) — Americans kept spending carefully last month, buying electronics and backto-school clothes but holding back on luxuries. Erratic weather and tepid economic news dampened sales, according to data released Wednesday by MasterCard Advisors’ SpendingPulse, which includes transactions in all

forms including cash. But pockets of growth during the five weeks between Aug. 29 and Oct. 2 point to a modestly more robust holiday season this year than last. Clothing sales rose 3.8 percent, driven by children’s and family clothing, which includes teen retailers, as stores offered backto-school discounts.

Stocks take hit on jobs data NEW YORK (AP) — Stocks dipped Wednesday after a disappointing report on the jobs market renewed concern about the economy. Treasury yields sank to new lows as investors sought safety and anticipated more stimulus measures from the Federal Reserve. Payroll company ADP said private employers cut jobs in September for the first time in seven months. Investors are seeing a silver lining in the news, however, hoping that it could help push the Federal Reserve to take more action to get the U.S. economy going next month, including stepping up its purchases of bonds. Gold reached another high and the dollar slumped further against other currencies on anticipation that U.S. interest rates could head even lower if the Fed moves aggressively to buy bonds and take other measures to encourage borrowing. The Dow Jones industrial average rose 23 points but broader indexes dropped and falling stocks outpaced those that climbed. The yield on the two-year Treasury note touched a record low 0.38 percent, and the yield on the 10-year note fell to 2.39 percent. The 10-year yield touched its lowest level since January 2009 when the country was mired in a recession. The Dow Jones industrial average rose 22.93, or 0.2 percent, to close at 10,967.65. Broader indexes fell. The Standard & Poor’s 500 fell 0.78.

Johnson & Johnson to buy Crucell TRENTON, N.J. (AP) – Johnson & Johnson said Wednesday it is buying Holland’s Crucell NV for about $2.41 billion, marking the American health care giant’s latest effort to gain a big foothold in the coveted vaccine business. The agreement had been expected since September, when the companies said they were in advanced talks. Johnson & Johnson had bought a 17.9 percent stake in the Dutch biotechnology company in the third quarter of 2009, saying it would help J&J boost its focus on preventive

medicine and infectious diseases. The current offer for the remaining shares is worth 1.75 billion euros, or 24.75 euros per share, or $34.40, in cash. That marks a 58 percent premium to Crucell’s closing price on Sept. 16, the day before the companies announced a potential deal. J&J, which is based in New Brunswick, N.J., will have a subsidiary initiate a recommended public offer under Dutch law for all the outstanding shares. The companies said the deal is expected to close in the first quarter of 2011.

General Electric to acquire Dresser NEW YORK (AP) – General Electric Co. on Wednesday signed a deal to buy the private energy equipment maker Dresser Inc. for about $3 billion in an effort to capitalize on expanding uses of natural gas following discoveries of huge new resources in the U.S. and abroad. “One thing that happens with low natural gas prices is that people will use more,” said John Krenicki, vice chairman of GE and chief executive of GE’s energy unit. “And that’s not necessarily a bad thing.” Dresser’s products include small gas engines, control and relief valves, measurement, regulation and control systems used in gas pipelines, liquid natural gas facilities and

power plants. GE builds natural gasfired turbines for power generation and provides services like water treatment and recycling for oil and gas drilling operations. Last week GE announced a mobile version of its water treatment technology designed to reach remote gas drilling locations. Recent discoveries of huge, cheaply accessible reservoirs of natural gas found deep underground in shale formations in the U.S. and abroad are leading analysts to predict relatively low and stable natural gas prices for years to come. That is inspiring utilities, chemicals producers and other industrial companies to expand their reliance on natural gas.

IMF sees higher deflation risk

Penske taps Nissan to build Smart car BLOOMFIELD HILLS, Michigan (AP) – Car dealership chain Penske Automotive Group Inc. has signed a deal for Nissan Motor Co. to build a new four-door version of its Smart line of small cars, as it aims to boost sales of the suffering brand. The new car, set to go on sale in the fourth quarter of 2011, would expand Smart’s lineup to include a larger fiveseat passenger car in addition to the fortwo minicar, Penske said. Penske began selling Smart cars in the U.S. in 2008. They initially drew praise for their fuel-efficiency and pintsized appearance, but

sales have been disappointing, with fortwo sales down 62 percent this year. The broader auto industry has seen sales jump 10 percent during the same period. Penske, which distributes Smart cars in the U.S. for Germany’s Daimler AG, is hoping a larger vehicle will help revive the brand. “The new vehicle will expand Smart USA’s product lineup, offering five-seat capacity while maintaining the core principles of efficiency and conservation,” Smart USA President Jill Lajdziak said in a statement. Nissan spokesman David Reuter said the new model will be built at a

Nissan factory in North America but declined to say which one. Nissan has two factories in the U.S. and two in Mexico. Penske’s tie-up with an outside car manufacturer is similar to the plans it had for the Saturn brand, which it sought to buy from General Motors Co. last year. Penske wanted to save Saturn by recruiting other automakers to build its funky lineup of cars, but owner Roger Penske failed to get a manufacturer on board. GM wound up shuttering the brand. Shares of Penske fell 11 cents to $13.24 in midday trading Wednesday.

WASHINGTON – The risk of a destabilizing bout of deflation has grown as the United States and other countries struggle with weak economic recoveries and lingering financial problems. That assessment, contained in a new International Monetary Fund report, comes as the Federal Reserve gears up to pump more money into the U.S. economy to strengthen the recovery and nip any deflationary forces from taking hold. Japan flooded its stagnant economy with money Tuesday in a bid to fight deflation. Deflation is a widespread drop in prices of goods and services, in the value of homes and stocks, and in wages. It crimps spending by people and businesses and makes it harder for them to pay down debts.

Citi selling retail credit card assets NEW YORK – Citigroup is selling $1.6 billion in retail credit card assets to GE Capital as the bank continues to shed smaller businesses to focus on its core consumer banking operations. The New York-based bank is restructuring operations as it recovers from the recession and credit crisis. Citi recently said it was exiting the private student loan business and sold its Japanese brokerage. ENTERPRISE NEWS SERVICE REPORTS
