Clunker hangover Sales of new cars decline, but local dealers say program worked BY PAM HAYNES ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – Local dealerships saw the government incentive Cash for Clunkers program serve as the engine to their success this summer. But now that the program has been shut off, can car sales survive without it? National automobile sales tumbled 41 percent from August to September, the month the program officially ended. Automakers that suffered a drop in sales included GM and Chrysler, while Hyundai’s sales increased 27 percent. The difference between the clunker months can be alarming, but dealers in High Point still say the program was well worth it. “When the clunker deal was going on, those people who weren’t necessarily looking for a car decided to go out and look for a car,” said Scott McNeill, general manager of Carolina Kia and Carolina Hyundai. “Car sales have been down a little since, and that’s the main difference in the traffic that we’re seeing now.” Buyers all but neglected the used-car inventory at Ilderton, Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep Inc. when the pro-

Since it ended, used car sales have risen. “Our used car market has come back, and it was suffering at that time (of Cash for Clunkers),” said Bobby Myers, sales man-

ager for the dealership. “The demand for new cars has decreased again.” The program has sustained criticism for its ability to permanently impact car sales in the U.S. since car sales have fallen again. McNeill and Myers agree the program couldn’t completely turn the industry around, but it served some good.

“It’s just a matter of the economy shifting back to where it was two years ago,” said McNeill about the auto industry’s recovery. “The program was very successful in the fact that we sold a lot of cars, and automakers created a lot of jobs for factory workers across the country.” Myers said it depleted

the dealership’s new-car inventory. “We haven’t had many new cars left in the last 60 days,” he said. “I think (the program) pulled the industry up to where it needed to be, and that’s the key thing.” The Associated Press contributed to this story.

Ruling backs judge in overturning murder verdict BY PAT KIMBROUGH ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – The North Carolina Court of Appeals has affirmed a judge’s ruling that dismissed charges against a High Point woman found guilty in the death of a 3-year-old child she was baby-sitting. In a unanimous opinion issued Tuesday, the court found that Guilford County Superior Court Judge John SPECIAL | HPE O. Craig III was correct in Hailey Rae Resch, 3, died setting aside verdicts of while in the care of her first-degree murder and felonious child abuse that a babysitter.

Appeals Court Judge Ann Marie Calabria ruled that the state’s evidence was insufficient to establish that Roach was responsible for inflicting the injuries that led to Hailey Rae Resch’s death on Nov. 9, 2005.

Decision may not bring an end to case. 1B concurred. In a case that was primarily circumstantial, the state contended that Hailey suffered injuries – such as bruising on her head and hemorrhages on her brain and in her eyes – after Roach attacked her in a fit of anger over the child’s misbehavior, slamming her head on a hard surface. The state’s

evidence “makes it impossible to determine the timing of the fatal injury,” Calabria wrote. “The State cannot circumstantially establish that the injuries were intentionally inflicted by (Roach) just because the child happened to be under the exclusive care of (Roach) when death occurred. The State must prove that the injuries causing death were sustained while the victim was in the exclusive care

Thomasville school officials to revise safety policies BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

THOMASVILLE – Revisions to two policies dealing with the safety of Chair City students were tabled Tuesday night by the Thomasville Board of Education. At the board’s monthly meeting Tuesday night, James Carmichael, Thomasville City Schools associate superintendent, requested the school board table a revision to the system’s restraint policy, as well as changes to the

harassment and bullying policy. The revisions will be considered once again next month. The revisions are needed because of legislation that has been passed by the N.C. General Assembly, Carmichael said. The revision to the restraint policy adds a paragraph that states “the board prohibits the use of seclusion or restraint by school personnel except as implemented consistent with G.S. 115C-391,” which says that school personnel can use seclusion and

physical restraint for situations such as responding to a person in control of a weapon and maintaining order and preventing or breaking up a fight. “We do train our staff yearly in proper uses of restraint,” said Karen Sylvester, the system’s exceptional children’s director. “... The law talks about mechanical restraints, which we are not suppose to use at all, either. It’s to protect the safety of our students and safety of our staff.” Carmichael said the revision of the harassment and

bullying policy was based on “adding groups” to the legislation. He said the revision states that “discrimination means any act or failure to act that unreasonably and unfavorably differentiates treatment of others based solely on their membership in a socially district group or category, such as race, ethnicity, sex, pregnancy, religion, age or disability.” “This particular policy is a recommendation from the State School Board Association,” Carmichael said. “It’s what they are

recommending for all school boards.” In other business, the school board approved its 2009-10 budget resolution. Thomasville City Schools Finance Director Tammy Stromko said the school system lost $540,000 from its budget. “It’s $540,000 out of about $13 million,” she said. “It can be a big punch, but the state has given us more flexibility in how we can use the funds. That has helped us with how we can manage.” dignasiak@hpe.com | 888-3657

$50 billion in high-speed rail applications submitted WASHINGTON (AP) – The Obama administration said Tuesday it has received applications from 24 states seeking $50 billion for high-speed rail projects, more than six times the money designated in the economic stimulus plan. A decision on which projects will receive funds will be made this winter, Joseph Szabo, head of the Federal Railroad Administration, said in a statement. “Our selections will be meritbased and will reflect President Obama’s vision to remake America’s transportation landscape,” Szabo said. In August, the agency received 214 applications from 34 states totaling $7 billion for corridor planning and smaller projects, which would include trains traveling

less then 110 miles per hour, the rate defined as high-speed in the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. Applications for high-speed projects were due Oct. 2. The $787 billion recovery act designated $8 billion for highspeed and other passenger rail projects. Interest in winning a share of the rail funds has been intense, not only by states, but by domestic and foreign rail, engineering and construction companies that want to build and operate the systems. The fierce competition means most applicants are likely to go away empty-handed. The $4.7 billion application from the California High-Speed Rail Authority alone totals more than half the available funds. California

A slew of Midwest states have rail projects that aim to link to a regional system centered in Chicago.

of the defendant, and ... it failed to do so.” Craig declined to comment about the ruling because the case is pending a possible further appeal by the state. Hailey, of Winston-Salem, was cared for by Roach at her High Point home for about three months prior to her death. She “appeared to be fine” when her parents left her

lectual property rights. At issue is a plan by ICANN to open a whole new world of generic top-level domains, or gTLDs, now personified by the likes of .com, .org or .edu. “It has come to our attention that the proposed limited expansion of gLTDs will likely result in serious negative consequences for U.S. businesses and consumers,” Coble wrote

along with Rep. Lamar Smith, the ranking Republican on the judiciary committee. “As new gTLDs are created, many businesses fear being forced to defensively register trademarks and variations of their marks to block cybersquatters from illegitimately trading on their goodwill and to protect consumers from increased incidences of fraud.”

BOTTOM LINE

--Alabama teen found riding in box on van; mom charged ALBERTVILLE, Ala. (AP) – An Alabama woman has been charged with endangering the welfare of a child after police say she let her daughter ride in a cardboard box on top of their van. Albertville Police spokesman Sgt. Jamie Smith said the 37-year-old

woman was arrested Sunday after police received a call about a minivan on a state highway with a child riding on top. Smith said the woman told police the box was too big to go inside the van, and that her daughter was inside the box to hold it down.

Smith said the mother told officers it was safe because she had the box secured to the van with a clothes hanger. The 13-year-old daughter wasn’t harmed and was turned over to a relative. A jail worker said the mother was out on bond Monday.

GREENSBORO – On first blush, Rep. Howard Coble doesn’t seem like the most likely character to be involved in a dispute over Internet domain names. The 78-year-old Greensboro Republican is more likely to get on the phone with an angry constituent than answer an angry e-mail in

kind. But a letter the longtime member of the House Judiciary Committee coauthored to ICANN – the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers – has gotten attention from folks who follow the Internet. ICANN is a nonprofit that rides herd over Internet domain names. Coble’s interest extends in large part from his work on intel-

Competing in the category of annual reports by organizations serving areas with populations between 50,000 and 200,000, HPEDC’s entry was a standout. The report, titled “High Point: Extraordinary Success in Extraordinary Times,” is a 20-page document highlighting the city’s economic development activities, achievements and attributes. The title plays on two meanings of that key word: the first “extraordinary” uses the definition of “remarkable, exceptional, or great;” the second “extraordinary” brings into play the definition of “unusual, odd or uncommon.” Thus, the annual report details High Point’s economic development successes and the accolades the city received in 2008, despite the national economic downturn.

Alcoa says N.C. claims on dams unique, irrelevant RALEIGH (AP) – North Carolina’s effort to deny Alcoa Inc. a new, decades-long license to operate four hydroelectric dams takes an unprecedented step of asking federal regulators to do the state’s bidding, the company said. A subsidiary of the largest U.S. aluminum producer, which wants to renew its expired 50-year license, also said in a filing with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission posted Tuesday that Gov. Beverly Perdue’s economic arguments are irrelevant under federal licensing rules and should be rejected. Perdue’s administration told the commission last month that the company’s profit motive could conflict with managing droughts and attracting new jobs. “Fundamentally, the governor is requesting that the commission recommend federal takeover solely for the benefit of a state interest,� the company said. But laws that give the federal government the power to regulate how navigable waterways are used

“were designed to allow for the federal government to take over a hydroelectric project for its own use, not for the use of a state government,� Alcoa said. “This appears to be the first time that a state has petitioned the commission to recommend federal takeover solely for the benefit of a state interest.� If North Carolina wanted to run the dams on the Yadkin River, it should have filed a competing license application several years ago, Alcoa said. Spokesmen for Perdue had no immediate comment. The energy commission has never decided against renewing a hydroelectric operating license, an agency spokesman said. If it did in the North Carolina case, Congress would have to decide whether a state or municipal body should take over operating the hydroelectric project after compensating Alcoa. Alcoa had North Carolina’s backing in 1958 when it won a federal license to operate the dams, which powered an aluminum smelter that

employed nearly 1,000 people. But the company closed the plant, its license expired, and state officials said they see no reason the corporation should keep the $44 million a year in electricity sales the dams generate. The state Commerce Department also argued last month that droughts in 2002 and 2008 show there could be a conflict between the need for power generation and the need to use the river’s water to support life. Greater state control of the river is more important now because Alcoa has severed its main economic relationship with North Carolina, making the company less responsive to the state’s concerns, officials said. Alcoa was scheduled to report third-quarter results on Wednesday. Analysts expected Alcoa to post a third-quarter loss of 11 cents per share on revenue of $4.5 billion, according to a poll by Thomson Reuters. Alcoa earned 33 cents per share in last year’s third quarter on revenue of $7.23 billion.

WILMINGTON (AP) – A North Carolina congressman is introducing a bill to give Department of Veterans Affairs health care to those exposed to contaminated water at the Marines’ Camp Lejeune. Rep. Brad Miller, a Democrat from North Carolina, plans to submit the legislation later this month, a companion bill to the “Caring for Camp Lejeune Veterans Act of 2009� introduced by Republican Sen. Richard Burr in July. Miller chairs the House Committee on Science and Technology’s Subcommittee on Investigations and Oversight and has held hearings on the issue. The proposed bills would grant care at a VA facility to any veteran or family member who was based at Camp Lejeune during the time the wa-

ter was contaminated and suffers from adverse health effects. The bills do not specify what kind of health problems, only that they are connected to exposure to contaminated water. Health officials say it is impossible to know how many people would qualify. They believe as many as 1 million people may have been exposed to the toxins trichloroethylene (TCE) or perchloroethylene (PCE) before the wells were closed 22 years ago. Miller’s office said it has been working closely with Burr’s staff and that the House version has a “few tweaks� but no major changes. One “tweak� is a clause that would update who is covered if new chemicals or health effects are discovered in future studies.

Iraqi police: Market blast kills 8 in Fallujah BAGHDAD – A car bomb tore through an open-air market west of Baghdad on Tuesday, killing at least eight people, an Iraqi police official said. It was the second consecutive day of attacks in the mostly Sunni Anbar province, raising questions about the ability of Iraqi security forces to keep the lid on violence. The blast came at sundown, when a parked car rigged with explosives went off in a popular open-air market in Fallujah, about 40 miles west of the capital, the official said. At least 20 people were wounded.

JERUSALEM (AP) – Israeli police mobilized reinforcements from across the country to secure volatile Jerusalem on Tuesday, deploying thousands of officers on city streets for fear that two days of minor clashes with Palestinian pro-

Remote Kamdesh, cut off from the rest of the region with no regular phone or radio contact and few roads, is where eight Americans and two Afghan security troopers died Saturday after hundreds of Taliban militants overwhelmed their thinly manned garrisons. The country also is nearing a resolution to August’s disputed presidential vote. Election workers began recounting suspect ballots Monday, and a ruling on whether President Hamid Karzai won or will face a runoff is likely next week.

Charles K. Kao, 75, was cited for discovering how to transmit light signals over long distances through glass fibers. Willard S. Boyle, 85, and George E.

Obama offers no firm signals on troop increases WASHINGTON (AP) – President Barack Obama on Tuesday ruled out shrinking the Afghanistan war to a counterterrorism campaign. Yet he did not signal whether he is prepared to send any more troops to the war zone – either the 40,000 his top commander wants or a smaller buildup, according to several officials. House and Senate leaders of

both parties emerged from a nearly 90-minute conversation with Obama with praise for his candor and interest in listening. But politically speaking, all sides appeared to exit where they entered, with Republicans pushing Obama to follow his military commanders and Democrats saying he should not be rushed. Obama is examining how to

proceed with a worsening war that has claimed nearly 800 U.S. lives and sapped American patience. Launched after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks to defeat the Taliban and rid al-Qaida of a home base, the war has lasted longer than ever envisioned – eight years on Wednesday. Obama said the war would not be reduced to a narrowly

defined counterterrorism effort, with the withdrawal of many U.S. forces and an emphasis on special operations forces that target terrorists in the dangerous border region of Afghanistan and Pakistan. Two senior administration officials say such a scenario has been inaccurately characterized and linked to Vice President Joe Biden, and that Obama wanted

to make clear he is considering no such plan. The president did not show his hand on troop increases. His top commander in Afghanistan, Gen. Stanley McChrystal, has bluntly warned that more troops are needed to right the war, perhaps up to 40,000 more. Obama has already added 21,000 troops this year, raising the total to 68,000.

Gen. Petraeus treated for prostate cancer WASHINGTON (AP) – Gen. David Petraeus, the top U.S. commander for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, was diagnosed with prostate cancer in February and has since undergone two months of radiation treatment.

Support for the war in Afghanistan has declined, the poll said Tuesday. And approval of Obama’s handling of it is holding steady – in contrast to his gains in other areas – as he considers a big troop increase there. Poll respondents narrowly oppose the increase. Overall, 39 percent said they disapproved of Obama’s performance in office, down from 49 percent last month. While a majority of those surveyed remain pessimistic about the direction of the country, that number has begun to improve, too. The poll found 41 percent now believe the U.S. is headed in the right direction, compared with 37 percent in September.

NEW YORK (AP) – President Barack Obama’s approval ratings are starting to rise after declining ever since his inauguration, new poll figures show as the country’s mood begins to brighten. But concerns about the economy, health care and war persist, and support for the war in Afghanistan is falling. An Associated PressGfK poll says 56 percent of those surveyed in the past week approve of Obama’s job performance, up from 50 percent in September. It’s the first time since he took office in January that his rating has gone up. People also feel better about his handling of the economy and his proposed health care overhaul. But not about the war.

Lower oil, gas prices will help economic recovery We are told that 70 percent of our economy is driven through consumer spending. If we want to right the economy, how can you not start with oil? The food you buy, clothes we wear, pretty much everything we consume (that’s why we’re called consumers) is moved, priced and sold with the cost of oil figured in. When gas prices rose after Katrina, the price of everything rose. Yet, we never discuss the everlasting influence that had on how our economy performs. The effect is still there as long as we keep paying well over $2 per gallon for gasoline. If gas was back to $1.25 to $1.50 per gallon, what do you think would happen to our economy? I know that there would be more money to spend in my budget! The price for heating oil has dropped so much that some people will spend $200 to $300 a month less this winter. Here’s a bold prediction on what’s going to happen with the economy this winter – it will improve! A lot of people will have more money to spend. Now, if we could add $1.25 per gallon of gas to that ... who knows! That’s economy 101. TIM BOYLES Sophia

“Astronomers have spotted the most distant and oldest star explosions yet in the universe … dating back nearly 11 billion years.” That’s 10,999,994,000 years before God created the stars! What this new technique has proven is the scientific accuracy of God’s word. The heavens are passing away (Isaiah 51:6) according to the Second Law of Thermodynamics, the law of increasing entropy, the very opposite of the evolutionary theory of increasing complexity. Evolutionist Jeremy Rifkin states, “The Entropy Law will preside as the ruling paradigm over the next period of history,” then quotes Albert Einstein that it is “the premier law of all science.” Sir Arthur Eddington touts it as “the supreme metaphysical law of the entire universe.” These great men of science verified what David, King of Israel, said over 3,000 years ago in Psalms 102: 25, 26: “They (heavens) shall perish.” All Bible prophecy will have

a literal fulfillment. The greatest prophet of all, the Son of the Living God, the Lord Jesus Christ said, “Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away” (Matthew 24:35). He also said He would create a new heaven and earth in Revelation 21:1. Christ Jesus fulfilled over 300 prophecies at His first advent, some dating back 4,000 years. There are more prophecies relating to His second coming than to His first. Among the next prophecies to be fulfilled is Christ’s coming for His church. “I will come again, and receive you (the church) unto myself, that where I am, there ye may be also” (John 14:3). I Thessalonians 4:13-17 tells the church shall be called up to meet the Lord in the air, and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Evolution or the Bible? Which will you believe? CLAYTON L. PROCTOR SR.

Those who think that sending their son or daughter to Afghanistan to “fight for democracy” should get out their history books and look up Vietnam. Indeed, look up Afghanistan! Nobody in history has ever “conquered” the tribal warlords in that remote area to unite the country into any singular form of government. After the deaths of many American soldiers and Afghan people, what possible goal is worth the cost? We have a covenant with our young men and women in uniform to send them into harm’s way only as a last resort to protect America from great harm. This covenant has often been overlooked in our recent history. Let’s treat our military as if they were as important as our own family. Speak to our representatives. J. RICHARD KIRKMAN Jamestown

Newspaper profi tability: Is High-speed it critical to our democracy? rail’s time has T arrived F or more than 20 years, North Carolina transportation officials have used state tax dollars to establish and improve high-speed rail passenger service here. In many other parts of the nation, officials have given the idea a low priority. But because these North Carolina officials stayed on track – often despite criticism from some ultra-fiscally conservative Tarheels – the state now stands in a favorable position to receive a large chunk of federal dollars that the Obama administration has earmarked for promoting development of a national high-speed rail network. Gov. Bev Perdue, every member of the North Carolina congressional delegation and a host of other elected and appointed state officials are making the case with leaders in Washington for why North Carolina should receive up to $5.3 billion in funding for boosting high-speed rail plans. And there’s one, simple overriding point – North Carolina is ready to move rapidly ahead with high-speed rail. With the requested influx of federal funding, state officials plan to have a high-speed rail route operational between Charlotte and Washington (via High Point, Lexington and Raleigh) by 2017 – less than eight years from now – serving a projected 1.8 million riders a year. That is an effective use of federal tax dollars. Establishing high-speed rail corridors and boosting passenger service will provide a viable alternative to the nation’s often crowded and disrupted and financially troubled air passenger services. Rail passenger service also will help reduce traffic on busy interstate highways and decrease air pollution caused by motor vehicles. Development of this plan also will create or sustain thousands of jobs. In recent years, the state has made improvements to the rail corridor between Charlotte and Raleigh to improve existing passenger service and to prepare for anxiously anticipated national high-speed rail service. Development of a national high-speed network and rail passenger service qualifies as a positive public purpose and is an appropriate use of tax dollars. So, with North Carolina in a position to move quickly, it’s time to get this high-speed rail network rolling.

oday, as you read this column in your favorite newspaper, I hope that you can appreciate the irony of where I am choosing to voice my opposition to President Obama’s expressed “happiness” to look at proposals to provide federal funding to help “rescue” the struggling print segment of the Fourth Estate. Just what we need … more of our tax dollars going to pick and choose segments of the public sector that the administration deems worthy of assistance. I do agree with President Obama when he states that good journalism is “critical to the health of our democracy.” While I think we can all agree that the media find maintaining neutrality and hiding biases difficult in many circumstances, one cannot discount their role in keeping this nation’s representatives in check and sometimes even holding them accountable for their actions. The essential nature of a free press was so recognized by our Founding Fathers that it was enshrined in the Bill of Rights. But these views on the importance of journalism in a free society does not mean I am willing to submit or subscribe to the theory that we can abandon the principles of a free market in order to pick and choose select private industries deemed worthy of receiving federal dollars to bolster their chances of surviving the ever-changing marketplace. Today, many of our nation’s longest standing print outlets are struggling to garner advertisers and subscribers. The impact of the challenging economy on advertising budgets and the ease and freshness of online news sources have put traditional newspapers in a challenging position. However, rather than arrogantly assuming government dollars may be the key to their continued viability, we should step back and take note of the countless periodicals that are withstanding these unfriendly challenges to their profitability by exploring new, creative ways to remain viable during times of economic hardship and increasing competition from the online community. We are not facing the end of the press, but a necessary and perhaps even desirable evolution in the particular form and style of our media sources. Journalism is diversifying, not dying. This is the

free market at work. But this administration and this Congress seem to think that government is the solution – the only answer. The answer to what? To help struggling financial institutions as well as the auto and newspaper industries gain an advantage? But what industry, what sector is next? Perhaps they should next look at helping revive the now-defunct Arena Foot-

ball League? As we look out over our nation as it attempts to climb out from the devastating economic morass of the last 18 months, we can still see so many Americans out of work and countless small businesses struggling to make ends meet. How can President Obama talk about continued bailouts – especially one directed toward the media – when we fail to address the concerns of the small businesses that make up a majority of the jobs in our country? How about targeted tax cuts/rebates for these small businesses instead? Sadly, it appears to be political. The president seems more concerned about the influence of blogs and other online informational resources on the political process than he does about helping the working families of our nation by being judicious and fair with their tax dollars. He claims that many of the online news options are simply carefree when it comes to the facts. Or perhaps he does not appreciate the online use of facts that is helping to shape our health care debate? But regardless of his reasoning or intentions, one thing is clear: the use of our tax dollars to bail out the newspaper industry is just one new example of a federal government that is intent on expanding its own power and reach – all the while trampling on America’s traditional notion of capitalism and free markets.

Return corporal punishment to schools

---

I

have a newfound respect for all the teachers out there today. Kids, high school students especially, no longer want to answer to authority, therefore, it’s the teachers they lash out at. Most teachers handle this with a sense of grace, but it’s impossible to stay completely composed when you’re being cursed out for the slightest of things from someone half your age! Teachers have low incomes and busy schedules. They go through all of this for us, the children. So why should they be forced to tolerate the blatant disrespect they receive in return? Obviously, the detention, write ups and suspensions that are being dished out aren’t working the way they are supposed to. I personally think that corporal punishment should be brought back into schools. Maybe this would, at the very least, slow the rapidly increasing rudeness of students to their superiors. When the only consequences to unethical actions are a break from school or staying a little longer in school, people are more prepared to step out of line and get into trouble for the sake of a laugh or their reputation. Maybe, if actual pain was the result of their showing off, they would be less willing to do it. Antagonizing teachers may be a “game� that is quickly growing in popularity, but is the solution to this problem as simple as bringing back a thing of the past and letting it stick? Paddling was an effective way of keeping children on the right path, and when they officially took that out of the school system, respect drained, frustration levels (of teachers and some students) increased and cocky attitudes went through the roof! If bringing back corporal punishment

is the answer, it seems only logical to reinforce it in school before it TEEN VIEW is too late and the Hailey kids are Hendrix impos■■■sible to rein in. I feel bad for those teachers who lose their tempers and hit students. Even though sometimes the teachers are to blame, in most cases they are being pushed by the kids and simply reach their breaking points in a less than appropriate fashion. Perhaps it would be a startling and radical change for us, but change is not always bad. Not to mention that, technically speaking, it would not be a new form of punishment. Those who object to this opinion have every right to disagree, even though I don’t feel

Perhaps it would be a startling and radical change for us, but change is not always bad. anyone can be totally against it until they have seen the inside of an utterly disrespectful classroom this day and age. The day would be so much easier, not only for staff but for all of the good kids at school that want to learn. So yes, I have a newfound respect for teachers, and if things continue in the direction they are headed now, my respect will continue to grow.

Prosecutor probes ACORN embezzlement

CDC: Spray vaccine arrives

NEW ORLEANS (AP) – Louisiana’s attorney general said Tuesday he has stepped up an investigation into embezzlement at ACORN nearly a decade ago, but the prosecutor and community activist group clashed over how much money was taken. Louisiana Attorney General Buddy Caldwell claimed the figure was $5 million, but ACORN said the sum hadn’t changed from slightly less than $1 million. ACORN said its chief executive officer estimated it could cost up to $5 million to “get

Swine flu shots come next week ATLANTA (AP) – The initial swine flu vaccine doses this week will be the nasal spray version, and arm injections will begin next week to help meet demand, health officials said Tuesday. About 2.2 million doses of nasal spray are available so far. However, the spray is not recommended for some people who are most in danger of complications from flu, including pregnant women and people with asthma. While some priority groups like health care workers and healthy children 2 or older can get vaccinated this week, pregnant women and others at risk should wait. The vaccine first became available in some states on Monday. So far, demand for it is outstripping supply, said Dr. Tom Frieden, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, at a Tuesday press conference. Swine flu is widespread across the country,

everything together” in the aftermath of the embezzlement, but the group’s leaders claim only $948,607 was stolen. The prosecutor’s new figure was reported in a subpoena filed last week.

Appeals court upholds judge’s decision to overturn murder verdict. 1A BY PAT KIMBROUGH ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – It’s unclear whether Tuesday’s court ruling brings an end to the Mary Elizabeth Roach case. The state could appeal to the North Carolina Supreme Court, but there is no guarantee the case will be heard. Since the North Carolina Court of Appeals ruling was unanimous, the state would have to file a petition to have the high court review the case. A North Carolina Attorney General’s Office spokeswoman said Tuesday that no decision has been made on whether to appeal, adding that the state has 35 days to decide and that appellate attorneys will take a close look at the appeals court decision and seek input from local prosecutors in deciding whether to proceed. “Mary Beth Roach and all who know and love her have gone through a long and terrible ordeal, but it now appears to be over after nearly four years,” Roach’s attorneys, Bob Boyan and Richard Tate, said in a statement. “On behalf of Mary Beth and her family, we are extremely grateful that the Court of Appeals unanimously affirmed Judge Craig’s decision to dismiss the state’s case for lack of evidence. ... From the beginning, we have believed in Mary Beth’s innocence.” Carol Resch, Hailey Resch’s mother, said she thought the court would have given more weight to the jury’s findings in the case. “It’s heartbreaking,” she said. “We’re just so surprised and disappointed.” Medical evidence was central to the case, according to the ruling. Defense experts could not determine precisely how Hailey died but argued that pre-existing injuries on the surface of her brain didn’t heal correctly and could have re-bled, causing seizures that led to her death. No time frame was established on when or how injuries to Hailey were inflicted and medical experts for the state and Roach agreed that she suffered a subdural hematoma sometime in the weeks preceding her death, the ruling pointed out. “The nature and severity of Hailey’s fatal injuries were not of the type that would necessarily have to be intentionally inflicted,” the ruling stated. The decision cited a 1984 case with similar circumstances in which the court dismissed charges against a father accused of killing his child where the evidence failed to establish the precise time the injury occurred. pkimbrough@hpe.com | 888-3531

Event puts good cause on the menu BY PAUL B. JOHNSON ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – Ellen Whitlock said she appreciates all the diners who parted with some of their hard-earned money Tuesday so her nonprofit agency and other ones can keep helping those in need during tough times. “In this economic climate, with so many people having experienced a loss of jobs or reduced work schedule, we are seeing more and more people look to United Way agencies for services and support,” said Whitlock, executive director with Senior Resources of Guilford. The annual Dine Out Day for the United Way of Greater High Point gave people having breakfast, lunch or dinner at nearly four dozen local restaurants a chance to contribute through their menu orders. United Way will receive an average of 10 percent of the daily sales from the participating restaurants. The proceeds will

–

The money raised from Tuesday’s Dining Out for the United Way of Greater High Point will go toward the nonprofit’s 2009 campaign goal of $4.5 million. Contributions will become part of the allocated dollars that fund the 70 programs at the local United Way’s 29 partner agencies. go toward this year’s United Way overall fundraising campaign to raise $4.5 million. “For those us of who can still continue to enjoy a meal out at one of the generous restaurants who are supporting this effort, it’s gratifying to know that those funds will be used to help families in our community improve their self-sufficiency,” Whitlock said. For example, the money raised through the Dine Out Day will filter down to allow

Senior Resources of Guilford to take care of homebound and frail, low-income older adults, Whitlock said. Tuesday was the fourth annual Dine Out Day. The fundraiser has grown in participation and donations because of the cooperation of city restaurants and generosity of diners, United Way reports. In 2006, 11 restaurants participated and raised $2,088. Last year, 24 restaurants generated $5,141, the United Way reports. Tuesday’s fundraiser involved 44 restaurants, and United Way should have a total for donations in the coming weeks. “Our partner agencies are reporting record needs. And we are doing everything that we can in this tight time to help them meet those needs,” said Paige Mone, vice president for marketing and communications with the local United Way. pjohnson@hpe.com | 888-3528

Commissioners have approved a grant not to exceed $6,200 a year for five years to the company, a total of $31,000. “It’s been a venture for the last few years,” Scronce said. “We were running out of space and needed more space to continue to grow and expand. It’s been a couple of years in the making, so we are very excited to be in our new space.” Scronce said his company continues to add employees as it grows. “I believe with the economy starting to slowly come out of the recovery, we will probably see an acceleration of hiring in the next two years because even through this economic downturn TelWorx has continued to grow at a pretty strong pace,” he said. dignasiak@hpe.com | 888-3657

Parachute manufacturer to create 375 jobs ROXBORO (AP) – A Person County parachute manufacturer said Tuesday it plans to expand operations in its home city as it meets the demands for a new military contract, a decision that Gov. Beverly Perdue said will generate 375 new jobs. Perdue announced North American Aerodynamics Inc. will increase employment in Person County while investing $900,000 toward renovations of two existing buildings near its current Roxboro operations and headquarters. The company received $300,000 from the One North Carolina Fund, which provides taxpayer-funded financial assistance to encourage industrial expansion. The firm has three years to create the jobs, according to the state Department of Commerce. The move gives a needed boost to Person County, which had an unemployment rate of 12.1 percent when a fund grant for the company was considered by the state. The company already has 45 employees at its headquarters.

ear Abby: During my visitations at my dad’s, I share a room with my stepsisters. They have made it clear they resent having to share their room with me, even though I have no choice about it. They play the choking game with some of their friends. When I refuse to participate, they put me down and call me chicken, but I’m not about to do something so dangerous. They have told me I’d better “mind my own business� and not say anything to their mom about it. I’m afraid if I do – and I get them into trouble – they’ll resent me more and make things even more difficult for me. On the other hand, I’d feel really guilty if I stay silent and something terrible happened to one or both of them. Should I tell their mom, even if it causes problems for me? – Seattle Stepsister Dear Stepsister: I think you should tell your mother, and let her tell your father and his wife. The “choking game� isn’t a game; it’s extremely dangerous. It destroys brain cells and has been known to kill people. The practice can also be addictive, and when people do it alone and lose consciousness for the last time, the deaths are sometimes mistaken as suicides. Dear Abby: My oldest sister has just married a very nice man. (It’s her second marriage.) My

only problem is that “Norman� is a taxidermist. Going to their home frightens ADVICE my daughter and Dear makes me Abby feel, frank■■■ly, a bit nauseous. I have avoided going there since the first time, but have been getting questions from family about why I keep turning down invitations. How do I answer these questions without hurting my sister’s feelings? She’s a great sister, and I really like Norman. But their house gives me and my animal-loving daughter nightmares. Please help. – Creeped Out In Arizona

Dear Creeped Out: Be honest, but be gentle. Tell your sister that you love her and think her new husband is terrific, but the stuffed animals (etc.) make you uncomfortable. Make sure she knows that when she’s having a barbecue or a swimming party (thank God you live in a state with a mild climate), you’d love to come over. But you’re not up to another trip through the gallery of the living dead because it gave your daughter nightmares. Dear Abby: I married a caring, thoughtful man who is also a loving father. My problem is my father-in-law, who constantly “reminds� me

that I’m the best thing that ever happened to his son and that there is no way my husband would be successful if it weren’t for my influence in his life. While I’m happy to have my father-in-law’s approval, it makes me uncomfortable, and it’s hurtful to my husband. My husband was not a wild child in his youth, so I don’t know why Dad feels my husband would be a failure if not for me. My husband is a wonderful man on his OWN merits, not mine, and the implication is insulting. How can I help my father- in-law see this? – Married To A Great Guy Dear Married: The next time your fatherin-law “compliments� you by insulting your husband, look him in the eye and nail him. One way to do that would be to say, “Exactly what do you mean by that, Dad, because I find the implication insulting.� I predict he will squirm. And when he’s done hemming and hawing, tell him his son is the ideal man for you, you feel lucky to have him, and you don’t appreciate it when someone who is supposed to love him doesn’t give him credit for all that he has accomplished.

hen Mabel Smith was 16 years old, she wanted to marry and have a family. But she didn’t want to marry just any man. She wanted to marry Orville “O.E.� Dillon. O.E. was only 18 years old. He came from a struggling family like her own, but he had a loving relationship with his mother. Mabel suspected that he would have a ABOVE similar relationAND ship with BEYOND his wife. And, O.E. Patty Jo gave the Sawvel correct ■■■answer to one important question. “I asked him, ‘Do you drink?’ He said, ‘No, I have never had a drink.’ I said, ‘If you did, I wouldn’t want you.’ And he never did,� she said. The couple’s wedding day was a bit unconventional by today’s standards, but common at the time. On May 17, 1941, O.E. arrived at the Smith home in a fine gray suit and collected Mabel, who was wearing a brand new blue dress. Instead of going on a date, O.E. drove them to York, S.C., where they were married. What happened next, though, is unusual by any standards. “He turned around and brought me home, and I slept in my bed, and he went home to his bed,� she said. Their wedded status remained a secret until July, when Mabel turned 17. Then she told her mother. However, she remained at home until August, when O.E. finally had enough money to rent a two-room apartment and pay off a bedroom suite the couple had selected. Only then did he honor his virgin bride by taking her over the threshold to unite as man and wife. Not long after this, O.E. gave his wife a special gift, an expensive watch. The purchase was a sacrifice, so Mabel worried about his reaction when it broke while she was fighting with her sister. “He said, ‘Don’t worry. We’ll get another one when we can.’ And, because he didn’t get angry, I knew then that I could tell him anything,� Mabel said. After that, Mabel and O.E. shared everything and became best friends. They reared a son, David, and enjoyed 56 years of marriage. Now Mabel Smith Dillon has a new goal. She wants to live to be 100. This 87-yearold is well on her way.

Tommy Martin walks through the remains of the abandoned Chiquola Mill recently in Honea Path, S.C. The mill was the location of a deadly shooting in 1934 where seven people died and more than 34 people injured over labor unions that the mill didn’t want. Today, the mill stands as a memory to what happened.

Site of bloody S.C. labor strike crumbles HONEA PATH, S.C. (AP) – All that remains of the abandoned South Carolina textile mill that was the site of the deadliest violence during a national labor strike 75 years ago are crumbling brick walls, creaky wood floors and whispers of the tragedy. The fate of Chiquola Mills is unknown. The site’s slated for auction in November after the owner failed to pay $5,000 in taxes and stopped demolition amid tough economic times. There are some who want the horrific memories to fade with the building. Others see an opportunity to preserve a historic site where seven mill workers were gunned down when the superintendent, who was also the town mayor and judge at the time, ordered armed guards, many of them fellow townspeople, to fire into the striking workers. On Sept. 6, 1934, workers mired in the midst of the Great Depression and angry over low wages and harsh working conditions took to the streets and descended upon the mill as other employees were headed into work. Dozens of people were injured in the shooting and melee in Honea Path, a rural town in northwest South Carolina about midway between Atlanta and Charlotte, N.C. “This could be so much – a monument to the people that lost their lives,� said

Tommy Martin, a 59-yearold former city councilman who is trying to rally the community to rescue the mill. “It can still be saved.� The shootings occurred amid a national labor strike that lasted about three weeks and saw widespread violent confrontations among workers trying to

The shootings occurred amid a national labor strike that lasted about three weeks and saw widespread, violent confrontations among workers. form unions and police and private security working to stop them. About a year later, Franklin Roosevelt signed the National Labor Relations Act of 1935, which recognized workers’ rights to collectively bargain. The only current marker memorializing the South Carolina tragedy is a plaque in a nearby park. For some, that’s not enough. “It’s just sad that here you have a landmark that was involved in changing the la-

bor laws just wiped away,� Martin said. “If it’s gone, when you ride by you’ll never have any indication that it ever existed.� Without the building, the history of the mill shooting could easily dissolve, said Frank Beacham, the grandson of the mayor and mill superintendent who ordered the shooting. He attended a dedication ceremony in 1995 for the small plaque and hopes more will be done. “I think they (workers) did what they thought was necessary,� said Beacham, who has expressed remorse in editorials over his grandfather’s actions. “And as a result of paying the ultimate price, a lot of good came from it.� The shooters were never charged or went to trial. “It was the saddest thing to ever happen to Honea Path,� said Jessie Mae Holder, an 84-yearold woman whose mother was wounded in the shooting. Holder’s mother died years later with a bullet still in her arm. James D. Cannon, a grandson of one of those killed, recalls stories about his grandmother’s struggle to feed and raise her children after her husband was shot to death. “He was just flat murdered. There’s no two ways about it,� said Cannon, 65, a retired state trooper.

Environmental concerns raised about TVA reactor SWEETWATER, Tenn. (AP) – Opponents raised environmental concerns Tuesday about the Tennessee Valley Authority’s plans to finish a second nuclear reactor at its Watts Bar site in Tennessee. The Sierra Club, the Tennessee Environmental Council and others told the Nuclear Regulatory Commission that they worry the only commercial reactor now under construction in the United States will harm the Tennessee River and endanger surrounding communities. They suggested TVA’s massive coal ash spill upriver at Kingston is a reflection of the federal utility’s management and that the 1960s-designed reactor will be out-of-date before it’s even finished. They worried about evacuation planning, feared additional spent nuclear fuel being stored at a Tennessee reactor and urged TVA to instead spend the money on renewable energy and conservation instead. NRC officials listened without comment during the public meeting, held as part of the agency’s

preparation of an environmental impact review required for an operating license for the Watts Bar Unit 2 reactor. “These are all being evaluated,� NRC spokesman Joey Ledford said of the public concerns. “And

TVA is spending $2.5 billion over five years to complete construction on the 1,200megawatt reactor by October 2012. any new issues that come to light will be researched and incorporated into the study.� The report is expected sometime next year. Additional public meetings will be held before a final decision is made. TVA, which has already concluded the reactor poses no threat to the environment, is spending $2.5 billion over five years to com-

plete construction on the 1,200-megawatt reactor by October 2012. The reactor could supply electricity to 650,000 homes, just like its twin — the Watts Bar Unit 1 reactor that came online in 1996. Watts Bar Unit 1 is the newest of 104 operating reactors in the United States. TVA nuclear executive Ashok Bhatnagar said Watts Bar Unit 1, which was completed after 20 years of delayed construction, “has operated very well� at nearly 90 percent capacity and expects Unit 2 to do the same. Both reactors were unfinished when idled in 1985 because of safety concerns and no commercial demand for their power. Bhatnager said the lessons learned in completing Unit 1, including in some cases redoing previous work, are being used at Unit 2. “We have gone through the historical review of all the documents, all the concerns, all the issues that were brought up ... and all those issues are being resolved right up front,� the TVA executive said, noting the project is on schedule.

Dear Dr. Donohue: I came down with shingles on my right shoulder and right breast Dec. 15, 2008. I still suffer from it. The pain is abominable.

BLONDIE

Neither of you has shingles. You have postherpetic neuralgia, pain that lasts for more than three months after the shingles rash has disappeared. Shingles is the rash and pain caused by the chickenpox virus that lives in the body’s nerve cells from the time of infection until death. The virus, most often at older ages, leaves the nerve cells and travels down the nerve to the skin, where it causes an outbreak of small blisters on red patches. The rash goes away in at least four weeks. The pain of postherpetic neuralgia, however, can last for a year or more. The pain comes from the damage the nerve suffered when the virus traveled down it to reach the skin. Many treatments exist for postherpetic neuralgia, but none works for all. One is the lidocaine skin patch. Lidocaine is related to the numbing agent Novocain. Capsaicin cream, gel or lotion

Antidepressant medicine, used for pain relief, is especially helpful at night, because it brings on sleep. Elavil is one example. Seizure control medicines also work. Your gabapentin (Neurontin) and Lyrica are two such medicines. I know you both have tried some of these. Have you tried combinations of them? The double punch can be effective. When pain lingers as long as yours has, it’s time to see a pain specialist. Your family doctor can refer you to one.

ma. How safe is Gatorade for children 5 and 7 years old? When my grandson got the flu, I took him to the doctor. He asked what I was giving him for liquids, and I answered Gatorade. That is the only thing my daughter will allow these children to drink. The doctor said no to Gatorade. He said it has too much sodium for little children. When I told my daughter, she snapped and said she was told differently. For three years that’s all they drink. Is this truly OK? – H.C. Gatorade is safe for children after they have been weaned, but I have never heard of anyone using it as the sole liquid for young children. It was designed to replace the sodium, potassium, chloride and sugar lost by people exercising hard and sweating profusely. The manufacturer states it is not a substitute for milk – and I am adding “or for water.” Its sodium content is higher than that found in the usual sodium-replacement fluids used for childhood diarrhea, but it’s not so high as to pose a health risk. Your daughter ought to abandon this practice. It sounds crazy to me. DR. DONOHUE regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but he will incorporate them in his column whenever possible.

Strip club worker held in death of ‘Housewives’ star’s ex-fiance

A television reporter prepares to report outside the Ed Sullivan Theater during a taping of the “Late Show with David Letterman� on Monday in New York. David Letterman apologized to his wife on Monday’s “Late Show,� saying she had been “horribly hurt by my behavior.� He vowed to repair his relationship with his wife, Regina Lasko.

Letterman apologies bring big ratings NEW YORK (AP) – David Letterman’s apologies to his wife and staff for having sex with co-workers meant another big night in the ratings for the late-night talk-show host. The Nielsen Co.’s overnight measurement of the nation’s 56 biggest markets netted Letterman’s “Late Show� on CBS a 4.2 rating – higher than anything rival NBC had in prime-time. Nielsen didn’t immediately have an estimate Tuesday of the size of Letterman’s audience. The overnight rating was slightly less than

A wonderful comfort food, Pulled Pork on Soft Polenta puts a multicultural twist to pulled pork.

Pulled Pork Italian Style Served over polenta, dish combines different cultures BY J.M. HIRSCH AP FOOD EDITOR

S

picy pulled pork over polenta only sounds like a culture clash. It oozes comfort and it makes more sense than you might think. Polenta, which is made from cornmeal, isn’t all that far removed from the corn tortillas and chips that partner so nicely with the Mexican flavors used to season the pulled pork, which, of course, is a Southern delicacy. To keep this dish convenient, the soft polenta is made from a purchased prepared variety sold in tubes. Chopped and simmered with milk, this polenta quickly softens. Alternatively, you could skip the simmering step and instead oil and grill slices of the polenta. The pork is seasoned with bottled barbecue sauce and drained salsa. If you want to infuse even more flavor, consider adding bay leaves, fennel seeds, garlic cloves and whole black peppercorns to the cooking water.

Pulled Pork on Soft Polenta Start to finish: 45 minutes (20 minutes active) Servings: 4 1-pound pork loin, cut into 3- to 4-inch sections 16-ounce tube prepared polenta 3 ⁄4 cup whole milk 3 ⁄4 cup grated manchego cheese 1 tablespoon minced jarred jalapeno pepper slices 1 cup spicy barbecue sauce 1 cup salsa, drained 1 ⁄2 cup lightly crushed tortilla chips (optional)

Bring a large saucepan of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the pork. Boil for 15 minutes, or until cooked through. Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan over medium, combine the polenta and milk. Heat, mashing and stirring the polenta, until smooth and creamy. Add additional milk if needed to reach a smooth consistency. Stir in the cheese and jalapeno peppers. Cover and set aside. When the pork is ready, remove it from the water. Discard the water and seasonings. Use forks or your fingers to pull the chunks

Nursing mothers can reduce their bone density loss through exercise, a finding that one day could help protect mothers from osteoporosis later in life, according to researchers at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. A team led by Cheryl Lovelady and Laurie Wideman found that lactating women who exercised during a 16-week span lost 4.8 percent of bone density in their lower spines, while women who didn’t exercise lost 7 percent. The results of the study are published in the October issue of Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, the journal of the American College of Sports Medicine. Mothers normally lose bone density during lactation, when they are transferring about 200 milligrams of calcium per day from their own stores to breast milk. They typically regain that density when breastfeeding ends. Lovelady and Wideman want to know whether mothers who reduce density loss through exercise still gain as much density after weaning their babies as women who don’t exercise. If so, exercise could offer a way for mothers to actually increase their bone density from predelivery levels and reduce their risk of osteoporosis after menopause. UNCG is enrolling women in a larger follow-up study.

Wednesday, October 7, 2009 CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Shawn Ashmore, 30; Thom Yorke, 41; Toni Braxton, 42; Simon Cowell, 50 HAPPY BIRTHDAY: You may have to do things behind others’ backs this year if you want to achieve your mission and avoid complaints and interference. Concentrate on what really counts and strive for the balance you need in your life in order to feel content. Protect your home and assets. Your numbers are 4, 13, 18, 20, 32, 35, 41 ARIES (March 21-April 19): You’ll be facing trouble for not pulling your weight around home. A change in the way someone wants something done will cause some concern. Don’t share secrets or let others in on your future plans. ★★★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): A job that can be done from home will get far more attention, bringing better results. An interesting conversation with someone who can influence your advancement will help you assess your situation and future. ★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Someone you thought you could count on will disappoint you. Focus on what you can do to get ahead professionally and put any personal matters aside until you are in a better position to act rationally. A change of plans may cause a rift. ★★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): Make some minor changes to your home. Adjustments to the way you do things both personally and professionally will stimulate the progress of your projects and enhance your results. ★★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Stick to your game plan and don’t be tempted to try to impress someone by promising the impossible. You may have to take a short trip or spend unexpected time in transit or doing research. Accuracy will be important if you want to protect your reputation. ★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Spark a conversation with someone you meet and common ground will lead to a new friendship. A romantic getaway should be among your plans. Visit someone you respect who will shed light on a situation you face. ★★★★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): There is more going on secretively than you realize. A chance to make some improvements to your residence or to purchase property will add to your assets. An idea you have will do better if you bring on board someone you have worked with successfully in the past. ★★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): The more actively you are involved in a cause or group you enjoy, the greater your chance of getting together with someone who adds value to one of your projects or your personal life. Any opportunity to travel or engage in different cultures will contribute to what you do and who you are. ★★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): The less conspicuous you are, the better. Keep things simple and to the point and don’t cut corners. Prepare to take the bad with the good when it comes to home and family. Not everyone will agree with your plans. ★★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Make sure you understand what everyone else wants and is trying to do. If you are diplomatic, thoughtful and helpful, you will make a friend instead of someone who will fight every suggestion you make. Productivity is the name of the game. ★★★★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Your emotions will trick you into doing something you probably shouldn’t. Hold off doing anything without a trusted friend’s opinion. A sudden change in your financial situation will help ease your stress. ★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): You’ll have far greater input and control if you are upfront and opinionated. Getting together with friends will inspire you to take another stab at a creative venue you have tried to launch in the past. Make sure your motives are reasonable. ★★★★

“My partner’s a jackrabbit,” a club player complained to me. “He seems to think he can win extra points for speed. When he played this 3NT, it took him two seconds to go down.” South played low from dummy on the first heart, accepting the free finesse, and won with the ten. He next took the A-K of diamonds. When West threw a club, South continued with the queen and another diamond, but when East won, he shifted accurately to the jack of spades. Whatever South did, the defense would take four spades, and the result was down one.

RABBITS “He’s as fast as the plane that left Los Angeles with two rabbits and arrived in New York – still with two rabbits,” grumbled North. South is safe unless East wins a diamond trick and finds a spade shift, so South should win the first heart in dummy and lead a diamond. When East plays low, South plays his nine. West wins, but South has plenty of winners established, and with West to lead, the defense can never take four spade tricks.

DAILY QUESTION You hold: S 8 4 H A Q 5 2 D K Q 7 6 4 2 C 9. You open one diamond, your partner bids two clubs, you rebid two diamonds and he tries two spades. You bid 2NT, and partner next bids three clubs. What do you say? ANSWER: Maybe you wish you hadn’t opened, but most players would have done so without a qualm. The auction hasn’t developed well, but partner’s sequence is forcing. Your two diamonds didn’t promise a six-card suit, hence bid three diamonds. South dealer Neither side vulnerable

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

Can best parent be best friend, too? W

e just returned from a boys’ trip to Las Vegas. By “boys,” I mean my sons, who are almost 16 and 13, and me, the oldest of the “boys” (according to my wife). I had to consider, yet again, the dilemma we confront as parents today, with the constant assault on our values and the non-stop sexual and violent imagery our kids face. We can’t fully shelter our kids, but what should be the limits? When my boys were very young, their mom (my ex-wife) showed them the R-rated movie, “Pretty Woman” on our VCR, because she thought it was OK for them to see it, as it was her favorite movie. She felt they wouldn’t understand that the Julia Roberts character was a prostitute. I didn’t object, and I think that was the first R-rated movie either of them saw. Now, on this trip to Vegas, I took David, my younger son, to see “The Hangover,” as Will had already seen it with friends (which begs the question, how did he get into an R-rated movie without an adult?) He had my permission, so that isn’t the issue. I thought seeing “The Hangover” in Vegas would be fun and sort of appropriate. And, truthfully, we laughed loud and hard throughout much of the silliness. I found it more heartfelt than many of the other raunchy R-rated movies of

late, but it still left me with a nagging feeling of innocence being lost too quickly. I’m still trying my best to preserve what little innocence I have left, as it’s clearly a lost cause with my boys. DAD’S Seriously, how often do I contribute to the POINT problem because it’s OF VIEW easy or convenient to rationalize a situation? Bruce My suspicion is: way too Sallan much. When Will was ■■■ in first grade, we began watching the non R-rated James Bond movies – the older ones with Sean Connery, which really seem tame by today’s standards. Shortly afterward, his teacher requested a parent conference and related that Will had begun a regular routine of acting out shooting other kids, mimicking James Bond from the movies we watched together. I was stunned at my own naïve contribution to this minor, but unhealthy, behavior. Stopping the movies quickly stopped the bloodshed. It was that easy. I attended a parenting lecture by Dennis Prager, when I first became a dad, and there was substantial wisdom handed out at that event. Prager compared and contrasted raising our

kids today vs. when his parents raised him in the ’50s. In a nutshell, he said that his parents did not have to worry about what he was taught at school, what he’d see in movie theaters, listen to on radio or records, or be concerned about pretty much anything he read. They knew their religious values would not be challenged at his public school. Their pride in America would be honored by not only the Pledge of Allegiance but history textbooks, as well as the values taught and encouraged by the majority of his teachers and the school board. He went on to say that his parents also didn’t worry about him walking to and from school, riding his bike around the neighborhood, or even be concerned when he’d go out all day to hang out with his friends, during the summer. What a contrast from what our children now face. The list today is truly endless of the challenges to our values in the public and school spheres, let alone the overprotectiveness that has crept into our everyday parenting choices out of fear that something might happen to our kids if left on their own. The technology, as Prager pointed out, makes our vigilance and the job of parenting much more complicated and requires much more attention to the details.

So, now I’m back in Vegas and we’re walking the streets, where every place we go is a vendor handing out cards with naked girls, while wearing T-shirts supporting their “escort” service. The buses pass by with similar billboards and all the digital screens and sounds in sight blast the same sexual message. It’s so much that it’s literally numbing. If we, as parents, are too vigilant or strict, we risk alienating our kids as so many of their friends are allowed even more than we might allow. Obviously, this requires a level of strength, confidence, and a willingness to face the derision of our own kids. If we value our values, we have to risk not being our kids’ best friend and choose, instead, to be their best parent. It isn’t as easy as it once was, and I certainly haven’t helped my efforts by choosing Vegas for our boys trip. Maybe I should switch to a river rafting or other outdoor adventure trip next year. But, those buffets in Vegas … BRUCE SALLAN gave up his showbiz career a decade ago to raise his two boys, now 12 and 15, fulltime.

Designer Carolina Herrera offers stylish perfection BY LISA ORKIN EMMANUEL ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER

B

AL HARBOUR, Fla. – At a party in an upscale mall, wealthy women and young girls in cocktail dresses cluster around the chicest of them all: Carolina Herrera. Herrera, dressed in one of her signature white shirts and full skirts with matching heels, poses for photographs like a pro for hours. She smiles and chats and does interviews with the media. “Darling, I have been doing this for 28 years, so I suppose that if they don’t know by now, after 28 years, then I have been doing something wrong,” she said. “If they don’t know about me, maybe I shouldn’t be here.” She is glamorous, of course. But to these women, she’s something more. “She’s attainable,” said Maria Tremols-Orbay. “She is a lady you can relate to.” The 70-year-old Herrera does have a warm, easy laugh, but her perfectionist reputation seems warranted too: You can see it in the way she fluffs the brown and cream striped pillows in her shop before cameras come in to film. Or in the ladylike crossing of her legs as she sits on a love seat, making sure her knees are covered. This isn’t something she does just for show; it’s how Herrera seems to live. Passers-by in front of her New York office building see her jetting in and out in her perfectly pressed shirts and never with a hair out of place.

life, every morning waking up and say I have to be perfect. What is this? Life is something else and I have to do some other things too,” she said. The Venezuelan-born Herrera had no formal fashion training. She started her business in 1980, when all her four children had grown up and a friend, then-Vogue editor Diana Vreeland, encouraged her to do a collection. “There is a time in the life of everyone I think ... that you want to try something in your life. And I thought I wanted to get involved in fashion,” she said. “I had never done anything professionally. And I thought that was the time to do it.” Her success lies in knowing exactly what women want or need in their wardrobe. That is in part due to her affluent childhood in Venezuela. “The reason why she’s

so successful is because she is the rich girl who actually made a real label,” said Juan Carlos Cajigas, a wardrobe stylist and personal shopper, as he nibbled on hors d’oeuvres at the opening party for her new Carolina Herrera New York boutique at the Bal Harbour Shops. Herrera, though, also gives credit to her team. One of them quickly reaches for the eyeglasses in her lap as she plays with a puppy. Another stresses the need not to crowd Mrs. Herrera. “You have to know how to delegate and know what you can do and what you cannot do. I cannot drape. I mean I cannot cut patterns. But I know exactly what I want and where the shoulder should be and where the seams should be,” she said. “And it’s the eye you have to have for the

colors, to mix colors, or proportions ... It was born in me. Because I didn’t go to fashion school.” Herrera said she didn’t grow up thinking about fashion. “I was thinking about my horses and my dogs and my tennis and all that.” “I have been brought up with a lot of discipline and I have three sisters and we were brought up in a very disciplined way ... and that helps,” she said. But her brand is now a part of her identity. And her advice for women who strive to be chic? “Well I would tell them to have a skirt. I love skirts more than trousers. And a white blouse, a sweater, a shawl. Don’t forget an evening gown, even if you hang it in your closet just to look at it. It’s beautiful,” she said with a laugh.

Gown designed by Carolina Herrera in a new Carolina Herrara New York boutique in Bal Harbour, Fla. When she received the Council of Fashion Designers of America lifetime achievement award last year, her friend Calvin Klein recalled a European vacation he took with Herrera and her husband, Ronaldo. No

matter what they were doing, he said, Herrera was always the best-dressed person in the room – and she has always run with a stylish crowd. But she says she doesn’t think about perfection. “You cannot base your

Deacs look for running room H

aving plugged gaping hole of concern, Wake Forest coach Jim Grobe now must unstop another. Getting ready to host Maryland on Saturday at BB&T Field, Grobe knows that he doesn’t want another case of running game gridlock as he experienced in last weekend’s 3024 victory against N.C. State. Wake (3-2, 1-1 ACC) gained a season-low 30 yards that was 96 below SPORTS its next worst effort and had so much Greer trouble moving on Smith the ground that ■■■ Grobe decided to go almost exclusively to the air, resulting in quarterback Riley Skinner throwing 45 times for 361 yards. “We did what we needed to do,” Grobe said. “We didn’t have a lot of success running. We thought if we were going to beat State we were going to have to hang it on AP Riley a little bit.” Wake Forest’s Josh Adams (27) is upended by N.C. State’s Justin Byers (28) and Bobby Floyd during the second Josh Adams led Wake with 36 half of the Demon Deacons’ 30-24 win in Winston-Salem on Saturday.

Twins work playoff magic MINNEAPOLIS (AP) – Alexi Casilla singled home the winning run with one out in the 12th inning and the Minnesota Twins rallied past Detroit 6-5 in the AL Central tiebreaker Tuesday night, completing a colossal collapse for the Tigers. The Tigers became the first team in major league history to blow a three-game lead with four games left. The Twins overcame a sevengame gap in the final month, went 17-4 to pull even on the final weekend and won their fifth division title in eight years. Baseball’s only real pennant race this season needed an extra game, and extra innings to finish off a thriller that got better with every pitch. Both team had their chances to end it earlier, and each club scored in the 10th. Casilla was thrown out at the plate to end that inning by left fielder Ryan Raburn after tagging up. Detroit thought it had taken the lead in the 12th. But with the bases loaded, plate umpire Randy Marsh ruled that Brandon Inge

up for Minnesota’s disappointment last October when it lost 1-0 in Chicago to the White Sox in an AL Central tiebreaker. Had the Twins lost, it would’ve been the final baseball game at the Metrodome. Instead, the Twins get the Yankees – New York was 7-0 against Minnesota this season.

HIT AND RUN

A

s the Major League playoffs open with three games today, let me come clean. I am a huge baseball purist/history buff and this year the postseason picture stirs memories of DiMaggio and Robinson, Mantle and Snider, Jackson and Garvey. I’m picking a Yankees-Dodgers World Series. For the first time since 1981, I see Pinstripes and Dodger Blue in the Fall Classic forecast. Sure, there are plenty of other compelling storylines. The Phillies look for their first

back-to-back world championships in franchise history, while the Red Sox, Angels and Cardinals have their sights sets on adding to World Series titles already won this decade. But for me, it’s past time for another Yankees-Dodgers showdown. These storied franchises have met in 11 World Series. The Yanks own an 8-3 lead, winning in 1941, ‘47, ‘49, ‘52, ‘53, ‘56, ‘77 and ‘78. The Dodgers prevailed in ‘55 in Brooklyn and added crowns in L.A. in ‘63 and ‘81. More than a sense of history makes a 2009

Yankees-Dodgers clash intriguing. Joe Torre, who managed the Yankees to six pennants and four World Series titles, now pilots the Dodgers. That’s a ready made point of interest. Plus, it’s been awhile since either proud club raised the World Series trophy. The Yanks last won it all in 2000, while the Dodgers haven’t been world champs since 1988. It’ll be fun to see how it all unfolds. Play ball!

Senior midfielder Matt Tuttle of the High Point University men’s soccer team was named the Big South Conference Player of the Week, the league announced Tuesday. Tuttle connected on two goals and dished one assist to lead the Panthers to a 2-0 record in Big South play last week. Tuttle got his week started with a goal and an assist in High Point’s 5-0 win over GardnerWebb on Sept. 30. Against Asheville on Oct. 3, he kicked in the game-tying goal on a 20-yard free kick under the wall into the lower right corner of the goal as the Panthers picked up the 2-1 win over the Bulldogs. Tuttle leads the Panthers with five assists this season. He is tied with freshman Fejiro Okiomah for the team lead in points with nine points on two goals and five assists. HPU returns to Vert Stadium today when the Panthers welcome defending Big South regular season and tournament champion Winthrop. Kickoff is scheduled for 7 p.m. The game is the beginning of a four-game homestand for High Point.

Cheek commits to play for Panthers BY GREER SMITH ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER

HIGH POINT – Three winters ago as a freshman, Justin Cheek made the starting lineup at Ardrey Kell High in Charlotte just out of necessity. “We were a new school,” Ardrey Kell coach Michael Craft said. “We were so thin in numbers that I had to start Justin. He’s really developed.” Developed to the point that the 6-foot-3 senior wing player earlier this week verbally committed to play at High Point University next season after drawing

interest from about 10 teams, according to Craft’s estimates. Cheek, who averaged 15 points and three rebounds last season, joined James Williams – a shooting guard from Deerfield Beach, Fla. – in High Point’s recruiting class. The younger brother of Duke women’s player Joy Cheek picked HPU over Appalachian State. “It was a lengthy process,” Craft said. “He decided Saturday to commit. I think he was impressed with the campus and all the building and improvements that have been done. I think he was im-

pressed with the opportunity for playing time and the coaches indicated that will build things around Justin. He wants the opportunity to come in and make them a contender. Craft said he also got feelers from UNC Greensboro, Wofford, Hampton, Western Carolina, N.C. A&T and Elon. “He‘s very athletic,” Craft said. “He can leap and dunk in traffic. He can take it to the hole. He has good footwork. Defensively, he very rarely gets beat off the dribble.” Craft said Cheek was the reason Ardrey Kell made it to the 4A Western Regionals where it lost to then-undefeated

At times, Cheek became a prolific scorer, striking for 32 points against Myers Park, and 28 against Charlotte Catholic, Charlotte Providence and South Mecklenburg. “He needs to be more consistent – that’s what we’ve told him that is what he needs to work on this season.” Craft said. “I think High Point got a steal. I think if he had waited to commit, he would have wound up a couple of rungs up the ladder at a mid-major.” gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3519

LeBron, Shaq slip past Bobcats CLEVELAND (AP) – The LeBron and Shaq Show is off and running. NBA icons, All-Stars and A-plus-list celebrities LeBron James and Shaquille O’Neal made their debut as Cleveland teammates on Tuesday night in the Cavaliers’ 92-87 preseason-opening victory over the Charlotte Bobcats. James, wearing a pink pair of his sig-

O’Neal, who said his goal is to “win a ring for the King” in Cleveland, scored six points and added three rebounds and a block. D.J. Augustin, whose third-year option was exercised before the game, scored 12 for the Bobcats.

Panther volleyball sweeps N.C. A&T SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE

GREENSBORO – The High Point University volleyball team swept N.C. A&T 2512, 25-17, 25-15 on Tuesday to improve to 10-10 on the season. HPU sophomore Breanna Holliday tallied a career-high four service aces and Megan Smith had a match-high 14 kills. Senior Megan Kaminskas contributed one solo block and four block assists in the match. “It is good to get back on the right track,” said head coach Jason Oliver. “We played focus the entire match which is something we haven’t been able to do lately. It is good to see some players get in there and execute our system and our identity.” The Panthers hit the road for two Big South contests this weekend, facing UNC Asheville Friday at 7 p.m. and GardnerWebb on Saturday at 4 p.m.

Pitching, not hitting, could decide Phillies-Rockies

AP

Minnesota quarterback Brett Favre was the one late Monday night against Green Bay. He completed 24 of 31 passes for 271 yards and three touchdowns in his first game against his former team as the Vikings posted a 30-23 victory. Favre and the Vikings improved to 4-0 on the season.

Favre adds to legend MINNEAPOLIS (AP) – Brett Favre was clearly uncomfortable this week with all the attention on this reunion, trying to downplay the significance of playing the Green Bay Packers and stumbling through denials that his main motivation to unretire last year was revenge. In the hours before kickoff, though, the game’s magnitude dawned on him and spawned nerves he hadn’t felt in a long time. On Monday night, Favre became the first quarterback in history to beat all 32 NFL teams – and the last one sure meant a lot. Favre’s first game against his former team was all fun for the Minnesota Vikings and all frustration for the Packers, as the graying quarterback kept his cool

and connected for three touchdown passes and 271 yards in a 30-23 victory. “I don’t know how to explain it. I felt right, but I guess I never thought I’d be in that situation,� Favre said. Favre went 24 for 31, without a turnover. The Vikings (4-0) sacked Favre’s replacement, Aaron Rodgers, eight times. Jared Allen was credited with 41⠄2 of them, a career high, including a safety in the fourth quarter that stretched the lead to 16. Rodgers had his first two turnovers of the season. “I definitely wanted to get this win for Brett,� teammate Adrian Peterson said. Rodgers has been sacked 20 times already this season. The Packers fell to 2-2 on the season.

NFL looks into alleged assault by Edwards CLEVELAND (AP) – The NFL is investigating whether Cleveland Browns wide receiver Braylon Edwards violated the league’s conduct policy following accusations he assaulted a man outside a nightclub. Edwards allegedly punched promoter Edward Givens, a friend of NBA star LeBron James, early Monday morning following an argument in downtown Cleveland. “We are looking into it,� league spokesman

Greg Aiello said Tuesday in an e-mail to The Associated Press. Although Edwards has not been charged with a crime, the league’s conduct policy states that discipline may be imposed for “the use or threat of violence.� Edwards may also face team discipline from first-year Browns coach Eric Mangini, who earlier this season fined a player $1,700 for not paying for a $3 bottle of water during a hotel stay.

Polamalu may play in Detroit PITTSBURGH (AP) – The Pittsburgh Steelers might not have to wonder any longer how much better they would be if they had star safety Troy Polamalu. Polamalu is expected to practice on a limited basis today for the first time since tearing the medial collateral ligament in his left knee Sept. 10 against Ten-

nessee – an injury that potentially could have sidelined him until midseason. Polamalu, a five-time Pro Bowl player, will wear a brace on the knee. He must show the Steelers’ medical staff that he can stop and start and change directions before he plays again, but he has not been ruled out of Sunday’s game at Detroit.

PHILADELPHIA (AP) – All those big boppers and two hitterfriendly ballparks sure make the Phillies-Rockies series look like a slugfest. Not so fast. When Colorado swept Philadelphia in the 2007 NL division series, the teams combined for only 24 runs in three games. Now, each club boasts even stronger pitching. The Phillies have two former Cy Young Award winners and last year’s World Series and NLCS MVP on their staff. The Rockies were the only team in the majors to have all five starters reach double-digit wins. “I look at our starting pitching as very good,� Phillies manager Charlie Manuel said. “I think it’s as good as any team in the National League, and I think that our starting pitching will play up big in this series.� The defending World Series champions are sending reigning AL Cy Young Award winner Cliff Lee (14-13, 3.22 ERA with Indians and Phillies) to the mound for Game 1 today. Ubaldo Jimenez (1512, 3.47) gets the start for Colorado. Both pitchers are quite aware the ball travels well at Citizens Bank Park, and they’re facing plenty of hitters who can drive them out. Neither Lee nor Jimenez will be intimidated. “I think it’s pretty well noted that it’s a hitter’s ballpark,� Lee said. “It still doesn’t mean you can’t throw right-handers in and

you can’t come in on lefties because you’re scared they’re going to hit a home run. Obviously, you get in certain situations where you might not want to come in on a guy. But for the most part, I’m going to pitch the way I pitch, regardless.� Lee has faced the Rockies only once in his career, beating them 3-1 on Aug. 6. He allowed one run and six hits, striking out nine in seven innings. Jimenez held the Phillies to one run in 61⠄3 innings in the clincher of the ’07 series, but is 0-1 with an 8.10 ERA in two regular-season starts against them. Cole Hamels, who was dominant during Philadelphia’s postseason run last October, faces Aaron Cook in Game 2. Jason Hammel got the nod over All-Star Jason Marquis to pitch Game 3 for Colorado while the Phillies haven’t decided. They can use three-time Cy Young Award winner Pedro Martinez, Joe Blanton or J.A. Happ. The Rockies have the bullpen edge because closer Huston Street was 35 for 37 in save chances. Brad Lidge had 11 blown saves for the Phillies after going 48 for 48 last year. Manuel hasn’t committed to using Lidge or Ryan Madson or even Blanton or Happ in the closer’s role. The Phillies led the NL with 820 runs and 224 homers. The Rockies were second in both categories with 804 runs and 190 homers.

Cards, Dodgers open tonight LOS ANGELES (AP) – Randy Wolf has seen a lot in his 11-year career, just never the playoffs. He’s finally getting a chance in the stadium where he watched the Los Angeles Dodgers as a kid. The 33-year-old left-hander proved to be the most consistent starter for the repeat NL West champions, although he quickly rejects the label of staff ace. “I almost despise that word,� Wolf said Tuesday. “A guy like Chris Carpenter, you could consider him an ace. He’s done it year in, year out. He’s the guy who is almost a perennial top-five Cy Young voting guy.� Carpenter will start for the NL Central champion St. Louis Cardinals in Game 1 tonight against Wolf. The 2005 Cy Young winner is a strong contender again this season, boasting a 17-4 record and a NL-best 2.24 ERA. Wolf describes himself in less lofty terms. “I’ve kept the team in the game,� he said. “With this staff, we could

have an ace on any given day. That’s why I don’t like to use that term. It’s just try to pitch as well as you can, that’s the key.� Wolf proved durable this season, setting career highs with 34 starts and 214 1-3 innings just two years after lasting half a season for the Dodgers because of injury. He ended the regular season strongly, going 6-1 in his final nine starts with a 2.51 ERA. Overall, he was 11-7 with a 3.23 ERA that was second on the staff to Clayton Kershaw’s 2.79. Kershaw will start Game 2 on Thursday, while Adam Wainwright goes for the Cardinals. The Dodgers open the series with two pitchers who lack playoff experience, between Wolf and Kershaw, a 21-year-old left-hander. Manager Joe Torre went with the two lefties because the Cardinals batted .234 against southpaws compared to .274 against right-handers. Carpenter missed nearly all the previous two seasons to injuries.

DURHAM (AP) – Thad Lewis certainly can’t complain about the opportunity. He’s a senior with 39 starts at quarterback for Duke and is playing for a coach who has built a reputation around throwing the football. And when he takes the field Saturday against North Carolina State, he’ll face a defense that allowed a bevy of yards through the air last week and will likely have overhauled its secondary. It seems to give the Blue Devils – the top passing offense in the Atlantic Coast Conference – an edge. They just have to take advantage. “Who knows how they’ll play on Saturday?� Lewis said Tuesday of the Wolfpack’s secondary. “They could correct the things they did wrong last week and come out and play their best game in the secondary this week. We just have to take what they give us on Saturday.� The Blue Devils (2-3, 0-1 ACC) are averaging a league-best 286 yards passing per game, while Lewis has thrown seven touchdown passes with just two interceptions. That includes a 359-yard day in a tough loss to Virginia Tech last weekend in which Lewis threw 40 times in coach David Cutcliffe’s offense. That sets up well to match up with the Wolfpack (3-2, 0-1), who allowed 361 passing yards and three scores in the 30-24 loss at Wake.

ECU enjoys view atop C-USA East GREENVILLE (AP) – East Carolina has gone from struggling to alone atop Conference USA’s East Division. The Pirates (3-2, 2-0 C-USA) have won two straight games after a 12 start and find themselves as the only unbeaten team in the division race heading into Saturday’s trip to SMU. It’s why coach Skip Holtz told his players they’re in a good news-bad news situation after their latest victory. “The bad news is, everywhere you go, not only are you the defending Conference USA Champion, but also the team currently in first place in the East Division,� Holtz said. “We know we’re going to get everybody’s best shot.� Holtz was annoyed, however, by the team’s 10 penalties against Marshall. “We’ve got to get those cleaned up,� Holtz said. “We still have too many of those for being this late in the season.�

Tebow back at practice, but not cleared to play GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) – Florida quarterback Tim Tebow has returned to practice on a limited basis, though he still has not been cleared to play in Saturday’s game against No. 4 LSU. Tebow was in full pads Tuesday and wearing a red non-contact jersey, which is normal for a quarterback. He was taking snaps with the first-team offense and throwing passes. The Heisman Trophy winner suffered a concussion in Florida’s last game against Kentucky on Sept. 26 when his head slammed into a teammates knee after he took a hard hit to the chest. He spent the night in a Lexington, Ky., hospital and has not practiced since. The Gators were off last week.

Rush for Rams? Limbaugh bids for NFL team ST. LOUIS (AP) – The lowly Rams have someone who loves them. Conservative talk radio host Rush Limbaugh said Tuesday he is teaming up with St. Louis Blues owner Dave Checketts in a bid to buy the Rams, owners of the NFL’s longest losing streak at 14 and just 5-31 since 2007. In a statement, Limbaugh declined to discuss details, citing a confidentiality agreement with Goldman Sachs, the investment firm hired by the family of former Rams owner Georgia Frontiere to review assets of her estate, including the NFL team.

Limbaugh declined to discuss other partners that might be involved in the bid, but said he and Checketts would operate the team. Forbes magazine has estimated the Rams franchise has a value of $929

million. Limbaugh is a native of Cape Girardeau, Mo., about 100 miles south of St. Louis. Limbaugh, who lives and works in Palm Beach, Fla., once worked for the Kansas City Royals.

Given how the Storm has played as of late, Southern could be one of the teams to beat in the new Mid-Piedmont 3A Conference.

None of that matters starting this week, though. “Everybody’s 0-0 right now,” Henderson said. “We feel comfortable going into it, but you can’t look past anybody.”

Ledford also has come on strong after an 0-3 start that saw the Panthers struggle finding their way on offense. But after scoring 26 points in their first three games, the Panthers put up 45 against West Davidson, 21 against East and 28 against Central Davidson. “Those first couple games we were kind of in a discovery process, figuring out how to get the right people the ball in the right places,” Henderson said. “And the kids have just been playing hard.

scene with four TDs against West. But Jonathan Shelton also has starred in the backfield and in passing patterns since returning from a knee injury earlier this season. Toss in QB Steven Fuquay being able to hit regular targets Dylan Smith and Michael Vogler, plus Justin Wilder finally returning from an August injury, and the Ledford offense seems all the way back.

BISON OFF THE BYE WEEK As the weather cools and the days grow shorter, practices seem to shift gears for veteran coaches such as Wayne Jones. “You get a little fall air going, most of the kids start to notice it’s football weather instead of the heat at the start of football season,” said the High Point Central leader. “Everybody knows it’s conference time, door-die time, and you’ve got to play your best ball.” With five straight wins, Central certainly is playing better than ever. Two years at 6-6 – with a 4-8 mark sandwiched in between – have the Bison seeking their best finish since 2005. “We feel a lot better that we did in previous years,” Jones said. “The kids are playing with more confidence. They know they can win as opposed to just hoping they can win.” shanf@hpe.com | 888-3526

PANTHERS ON THE PROWL MID-PIEDMONT MUDDLE

Yadkin Valley 1A Albemarle North Rowan South Stanly E. Montgomery W. Montgomery South Davidson Chatham Central North Moore

SUMNER – Thanks to 184 yards rushing last Friday against Randleman and a whopping 289 the week before vs. Trinity, Warren Scott became the first area runner to top the 1,000yard mark for the season. Most impressively, Southern Guilford only has played six games this year, meaning Scott’s bye week already is out of the way. But there’s plenty more behind the Storm’s success than the exploits of the 5-foot-7, 150pound senior. “Up front, our offensive line has gotten better every week,” Southern coach Darryl Brown said. “It’s a relatively inexperienced group, but they’ve gotten better and shown we have the ability to run the football.” Right guard Darius Pickett was the only returning starter in the group. The newcomers playing so well these past few weeks have been right tackle Michael Ambrose, center Logan Vestal, left guard Ryan Donnell and left tackle J’Lin Rose, who is just a sophomore. Southern opened with just a touchdown against unbeaten Ragsdale, then lost 13-10 in OT to Rockingham County. The following week, however, saw the Storm cruise 37-15 over Southeast Guilford. Only one loss has ensued, and that by a missed PAT against Western Guilford. Josh McDuffie has sparked the option offense with 100-yard games the past two weeks, and sophomore QB Jamie Cunningham continues running when possible while growing in the passing game. “We’re hoping that’s something we’ll be able to continue improving on,” Brown said. “People are really going to start ganging up on us up front.” Despite an offense now averaging 25 points per game, Brown said a defensive group led by Sterling Crosby, Nick Bell, Joe Patteson and McDuffie still leads the way. “The last two weeks they’ve been outstanding, put us in position to be able to score,” Brown said. “Coming into the year we expected a lot out of those guys, and they haven’t let us down.”

Canwest requests bankruptcy protection TORONTO – Canwest Global Communications Corp. said Tuesday it will file for bankruptcy protection under a deal with a key group of lenders as Canada’s biggest media company seeks court approval to restructure its debt after months of negotiations. Canwest has been struggling for months to deal with a $4 billion Canadian ($3.8 billion) debt load. The company hasn’t been able to make interest payments on it and has negotiated several extensions with creditors.

Consumers get heating break WASHINGTON (AP) – There’s good news for people worried about winter heating bills. People using natural gas this winter stand to save $105, compared with last year, and propane users will get even bigger savings, the government said. Households that use heating oil or electric heat also are expected to spend less during the heating season. The Energy Information Administration said in its annual winter outlook Tuesday that lower fuel costs across the board and

an expected milder winter will cut average heating costs for the upcoming season by 8 percent compared to last year – to about $960. Households are expected to pay an average of $783, nearly 12 percent less than last winter, for natural gas, and $1,821 for heating oil, about 2 percent lower. People using electric heat will pay $933, a decline of 2 percent and those using propane $1,667, or 14 percent less than last winter, the agency said. The report cautioned that the projections reflect average costs and that expendi-

tures for individual households will vary depending on local weather conditions, the size and energy efficiency of homes and the efficiency of heating equipment. About half of all households depend on natural gas for heating, especially in the Midwest where seven in 10 homes use the fuel. People in the Midwest also are expected to benefit from a milder winter, compared to last year, and see natural gas bills 15 percent lower than last year, the agency said. The report said natural

gas inventories approaching the heating season are expected to be at a record high of more than 3.8 trillion cubic feet. Wholesale prices are well below last winter and the EIA said prices are expected to remain low through October and then increase slightly as demand picks up. The nearly 8 million households that use heating oil, primarily in the Northeast, can expect to save an average $40 to $60 compared to last winter. The agency said residential heating oil prices in the Northeast is expected to average $2.64 a

Airlines improve on-time arrivals MINNEAPOLIS – Arriving on-time was just a little bit easier for airline passenger traveling in August. The Transportation Department says 79.7 percent of flights arrived on time in August. that’s up from 78.4 percent during August of last year, and 77.6 percent in July. Southwest was the most punctual of the large carriers, with an on-time arrival rate of 82.8 percent.

Trade officials probe Toyota patent claim NEW YORK – Trade regulators are launching an investigation into whether Toyota violated patents held by a Florida-based hybrid technology company. If the International Trade Commission sides with Paice LLC, the trade body could issue penalties including a possible ban the hybrids’ import. The ITC voted to launch a probe into the claim on Monday. The Bonita Springs, Fla., company claims that popular Toyota hybrids like the thirdgeneration Prius and the Lexus HS250h contain technology that on Paice patents related to hybrid propulsion.

Neiman Marcus offers nod to recession NEW YORK – Luxury retailer Neiman Marcus is unveiling its Christmas Book Tuesday with a nod to even affluent shoppers who are tightening their Gucci belts in the Great Recession. More than 40 percent of the gifts in the catalog’s 83rd edition cost less than $250, though they’re not necessarily for everyone. New items include $75 plaid stockings, $235 Italian wool scarves and $95 Nutcracker charms. ENTERPRISE NEWS SERVICE REPORTS

gallon this winter, 2 cents less than last winter, but a significant drop from the average $3.31 a gallon that consumers paid two winters ago. The biggest savings will be seen by users of propane where households are expected to save an average of $280 this winter, a decline of 14 percent. Propane users in the Midwest are expected to save as much as 21 percent compared to last winter because of a combination of lower fuel prices and milder weather, the agency said.

Group offers weak holiday forecast NEW YORK (AP) – After parents cut back on clothes and accessories for children this past fall, the retail industry suspects they won’t be any more generous by the holidays. The National Retail Federation, usually bullish about holiday sales, predicts a 1 percent decline in total sales to $437.6 billion for November and December combined. The projection from the world’s largest retail trade group comes amid forecasts that U.S. retailers saw a key measure of sales drop in

September for the 13th month in a row compared with a year earlier. The NRF is less optimistic this year than several other groups offering holiday sales forecasts. “We just don’t see a sharp turnaround in consumer sentiment and spending until employment and income look a lot better,” said Rosalind Wells, chief economist at the National Retail Federation. “Shoppers are going to remain very frugal.” NRF’s figures exclude sales from restaurants,

gasoline, autos and online business; they include low-price retailers, department stores, grocery stores and specialty stores. Last year, the Washington-based NRF issued a 2.2 percent growth forecast in mid-September just as the financial meltdown ballooned. The trade group decided not to offer a reduced estimate because the spending climate was deteriorating so quickly that forecasters couldn’t be accurate. The industry ended up having the weakest holiday season – when

compared with the previous year – since at least 1967, when the U.S. Commerce Department started collecting retail sales data. So far, holiday 2009 forecasts range from as weak as a 3.5 percent decline from Wells Fargo senior economist Mark Vitner to predictions at the top end from Deloitte Research and TNS Retail Forward that sales will be the same as last year. Meanwhile, shoppers continue to grapple with tight credit and dwindling net worth.

British Airways cuts 1,000 jobs LONDON (AP) – British Airways PLC says it is shedding 1,000 fulltime jobs and putting 3,000 more employees on part-time work and reducing size of cabin crews at Heathrow in an effort to get the troubled

airline’s finances back in order. BA spokesman Paul Marston said Tuesday the company was in “a very serious financial position” and was working hard to turn itself around with an aggres-

sive cost-reduction program. Marston says the job losses and part-time work will be accomplished voluntarily and would be equivalent to cutting 1,700 positions. He also announced a

companywide freeze on basic pay and said cabin crews operating out of London’s Heathrow Airport would be downsized. BA says in a statement that revenues are down.

GENEVA (AP) – More people are using cell phones and other portable devices for highspeed Web access than are signing up for fixed line subscriptions to the Net, according to U.N. figures published Tuesday. Mobile broadband subscriptions are expected to reach 600 million, leapfrogging the estimated 500 million fixed line subscriptions by the end of this year, the International Telecommunication Union said. “There was a 50 percent increase in mobile broadband subscriptions just over the past year,” said Susan Teltscher of ITU’s statistical bureau. The agency expects growth to continue at this rate for several years, she said.

NASA contractor lays off 550 SALT LAKE CITY (AP) – The company that makes booster rockets for the space shuttle is laying off 550 engineers, factory workers and others at three Utah locations. ATK Space Systems says Tuesday’s pink slips mark the phase-out of the space shuttle, as well as the end of production for the government’s Minuteman III ballistic missile program. ATK alerted workers to the reductions in July. More than 130 of the employees voluntarily accepted a layoff. Along with others, they will get a severance package of up to a half-year’s wages.

Michelin Man character to get makeover NEW YORK (AP) – Michelin says it’s launching a new global media campaign featuring its legendary Michelin Man character. The campaign announced Tuesday includes print, TV, Internet and social net-

working elements designed to get shoppers interested in the French company’s premium tires at time when consumer spending is still at a low. Company officials say the aggressive media campaign is needed for it

to preserve and increase its market share. While the new campaign doesn’t change the look of the Michelin Man much, he does get a new role as a hero. A new TV spot set to start airing Wednesday shows him battling a raging gas pump.

NEW YORK (AP) – Investors barreled into stocks for a second day, betting that corporate profits will surge as the global economy recovers. The Dow Jones industrial average rose 132 points, bringing its twoday advance to 244, as major stock indicators rose more than 1 percent. Investors’ show of confidence ahead of flood of corporate earnings reports came as Australia became the first major country to raise interest rates since the onset of the financial crisis last year. The move signals that policymakers see the country’s economy as strong enough to withstand higher borrowing costs. That touched off hopes that other economies may also be strengthening. The market’s climb comes as some investors ratchet up their

expectations for companies’ earnings for the July-September quarter. Yum Brands Inc., parent of the Taco Bell, KFC and Pizza Hut chains, reported results after the closing bell that topped expectations. Aluminum producer Alcoa Inc. reports on Wednesday. Phil Orlando, chief equity market strategist at Federated Investors in New York, said investors are raising their expectations for overall earnings because few companies have issued profit warnings since the quarter’s end. According to preliminary calculations, the Dow rose 131.50, or 1.4 percent, to 9,731.25 after rising 112 Monday. The Standard & Poor’s 500 index rose 14.26, or 1.4 percent, to 1,054.72, while the Nasdaq composite index rose 35.42, or 1.7 percent, to 2,103.57.

Financial reform splits lawmakers Obama administration’s proposals for investor protection and bringing hedge funds and other private pools of capital under government supervision. The legislation would give the Securities and Exchange Commission the authority to ban clauses in contracts that investors sign with their brokers that mandate arbitration to resolve disputes and exclude court action. That “could substantially increase dispute-resolution costs for investors and compliance costs for firms,” said Rep. Spencer Bachus of Ala-

bama, the panel’s senior Republican. In addition, Bachus said, the proposal doesn’t go far enough to restructure the SEC to prevent another breakdown like the agency’s failure to uncover Bernard Madoff’s massive fraud scheme over nearly two decades. But Denise Voigt Crawford, the president of the North American Association Securities Administrators Association – which represents state securities regulators – said the current arbitration process involving panels with industry rep-

resentatives shouldn’t be forced on investors. “I think that investors want choices,” she said. “They have no options.” Kanjorski’s proposal also would put stockbrokers and investment advisers providing services to retail investors under the same standards of conduct. “Billionaires on Wall Street have had their day, egged on by a culture of greed, deregulation and a survival-of-the-fittest attitude that ignored the harsh effects those things inflict upon larger society,” Kanjorski said.

Boeing to record $1 billion charge CHICAGO (AP) – Boeing said Tuesday it expects to record a charge of $1 billion in the third quarter due to higher costs in its 747-8 program and difficult market conditions. About $640 million of the charge reflects higher estimated costs to produce 747-8 airplanes at Boeing and its suppliers,

WASHINGTON (AP) – Regulators and investor advocates voiced support Tuesday for a proposal that addresses consumer protection and would bring investment funds under government supervision as part of Congress’ efforts to revamp the U.S. financial rule book. Republicans objected to key elements of the plan and said the Democrats crammed too many complex topics into one hearing of the House Financial Services Committee. The draft legislation by Rep. Paul Kanjorski, D-Pa., closely tracks the

Boeing said. Higher fixed expenses and penalties to suppliers are the main drivers of the additional costs, Boeing said. The company said that as major components were assembled for initial 747-8 Freighters in the third quarter, it became clear that later-than-expected engineering de-

signs “caused greater than expected rework and disruption in manufacturing.” “This is resulting in additional resources being applied on the program and higher supplier expenses, which are the primary cost drivers,” Boeing said. The company said the

remaining $360 million of the charge relates to “challenging market conditions” and its decision to maintain the 747-8 production rate at 1.5 airplanes per month nearly two years longer than previously planned. The company is delaying an increase in 747-8 production to two per month.

Australia raises rate to 3.25 percent SYDNEY – Australia’s central bank unexpectedly raised interest rates by a quarter point Tuesday, becoming the first major economy to increase the cost of borrowing amid signs its recovery from the global slump is gaining momentum. The Reserve Bank of Australia raised its cash rate to 3.25 percent from a 49-year low of 3 percent. Between September 2008 and April this year, the rate was slashed a total of four and a quarter percentage points as the financial crisis morphed into a global recession.

Recovery hopes boost world markets LONDON – World stock markets rallied strongly Tuesday as better than expected U.S. data and a surprise interest rate hike from Australia’s central bank reassured investors that the global economic recovery was continuing. In Europe, shares tracked Asian issues higher, with the FTSE 100 index of leading British shares closing up 113.65 points, or 2.3 percent, at 5,137.98. Germany’s DAX ended 148.79 points, or 2.7 percent, firmer at 5,657.64 while the CAC-40 in France rose 95.20 points, or 2.6 points, or 3,770.21.

Oil climbs on encouraging signs NEW YORK – Oil prices climbed Tuesday as the combination of a weaker dollar and stronger stock market outweighed concerns about weak demand and vast supplies of crude. Benchmark crude for November delivery rose $1.37 to $71.78 on the New York Mercantile Exchange. The contract gained 46 cents to settle at $70.41 on Monday. ENTERPRISE NEWS SERVICE REPORTS

Crane Valley hot shots hike in San Bernardino National Forest to take care of remnants of a fire that charred the San Gabriel Mountains and came close to homes on the eastern edge of Wrightwood, Calif., in the San Gabriel Mountains Monday.

Fire evacuations lifted for California town WRIGHTWOOD, Calif. (AP) – Thousands of people ordered to flee their homes because of a 7,000acre wildfire near a Southern California mountain town were allowed to return Tuesday as cool, calm weather aided fire crews, authorities said.

Evacuation orders for 2,000 homes and 4,000 to 6,000 people in and around Wrightwood northeast of Los Angeles were lifted at noon, although the order remained for a canyon where the fire burned one home over the weekend. Only a few homes were

in that area. Firebreaks constructed below Wrightwood were holding and the fire did not appear to be spreading, U.S. Forest Service fire information officer Norma Bailey said. “They have had a few flareups within the perimeter of the fire,” she said.
