Triad cities see sluggish revenues BY PAT KIMBROUGH ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
HIGH POINT – It’s no secret that tax revenues for local governments have been falling during the recession, and a new report confirms the extent of the drop. Property tax revenue in U.S. cities fell 1.8 percent for the fiscal year that ended June 30, according to the National League of Cities, which based the figure on survey responses from 338 cities of all sizes. It was the first drop in the 25 years the survey has been done. It also found that overall tax revenue fell 3.2 percent, and cities cut spending by 2.3 percent. The report raised concerns that the effect of falling home prices is just beginning to be felt in local government coffers. Through September, High Point’s property tax revenue was running $1.1 million, or 3.1 percent, behind last year. The

Davidson, Randolph counties deal with shrinking tax base. 1B city budget projected this stream would remain flat for the year, and City Manager Strib Boynton said the latest figures are “not a great concern today. However, I will be concerned if the trend continues the next couple of months.” The city’s sales tax revenues were up slightly through July – $22,000, or 0.2 percent, compared to July 2009 – but no major change up or down in sales or property tax figures is expected at this point, Boynton said. For Guilford County, property tax collections were generally flat for fiscal 2010, according to Tax Director Ben Chavis. Property taxes are the county’s top revenue source.
“People are struggling,” Chavis said. “It’s more of a struggle for them to take care of their property tax obligation, and a lot of folks are paying later than they typically would. But we haven’t seen much of a decline in the revenue percentage.” Jamestown Town Manager Kathryn Billings said collections have been fairly flat, and town officials have been planning for the impact of the recession for a long time. “Usually, with local governments, when everybody else is immediately feeling something, it’s nine months or a year down the road before it sort of comes downhill to the smaller local governments,” Billings said. “We had warning that was going to happen, so we had already shifted employees where we could and cut back on capital expenditures where we could.” pkimbrough@hpe.com | 888-3531
Arnold considering new county post BY DAVID NIVENS ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
GUILFORD COUNTY – Commissioner Steve Arnold said Friday he is considering seeking a newly created administrative post in Guilford County government. The High Point Republican, who has served on the Guilford County Board of Commissioners for 20 years with stints as chairman and vice chairman, chose not to seek re-election this year. State law would allow Arnold, who holds a powerful leadership job as vice chairman, to take the job after his tenure ends later this year. The county has posted advertisements for the executive job that will oversee real estate development and planning, County Manager Brenda Jones-Fox told commissioners Thursday. Arnold ran his own de-
velopment company until 2007 when he and the company filed for bankruptcy. “I am conArnold sidering my options,” Arnold said. “I do find the possibilities of this job intriguing. But I can’t confirm or deny my actions regarding it. To do so would be a disservice.” Several commissioners questioned Jones-Fox about the position Thursday. She said the new director would take over planning director duties. The county has kept the position vacant since the death of Greg Niles in 2008, but with the failure of planning agency consolidation talks with Greensboro, the manager said she decided to create the new position. “This will keep us efficient,” she said. “We do
have a lot of projects. It is time to move on with this.” Arnold agreed. “This position is a good idea,” he said. “The planning position has been vacant for a long time.” During the Thursday board meeting, Republican Commissioner Billy Yow tried to pin down Jones-Fox on how much the job might pay. The manager would say only that the salary would depend on the qualifications of the applicants. Yow suggested between $100,000 and $190,000. “I think we could get someone for much cheaper than that,” Fox said. Niles earned $105,000 a year. Yow also wanted to know if the director would use one or two offices. Jones-Fox said two could be available, one in the Independence Center where the planning de-

Perdue requests disaster aid RALEIGH (AP) – Gov. Beverly Perdue wants federal disaster aid for six eastern North Carolina counties hit hard by torrential rains and flooding.

The state still doesn’t have a final damage estimate because high water remains in some areas. Eastern portions
of the state saw up to 24 inches of rain last week. Parts of some rivers could remain near flood stage into today.
Judge tells school to admit girl with piercing RALEIGH (AP) – A federal judge ordered a North Carolina school to admit a 14-year-old high school student suspended for wearing a nose piercing she says is part of her religion, and the teenager headed to science class Friday afternoon. U.S. District Judge Malcolm Howard on Friday ordered the Johnston County schools to suspend enforcement of their dress code for Ariana Iacono and allow her to return to school immediately. The judge ruled that the girl and her mother are likely to prevail in the lawsuit filed on their behalf by the American Civil Liberties Union. “We are thrilled that

Ariana Iacono, 14, poses for a photograph in Clayton. Ariana can return to her studies,” her mother, Nikki Iacono, said in a statement released by the ACLU. “Ariana was an honor roll student in middle school, and she is eager to get back to her classes and continue with her education as soon as possible.”
A call to Nikki Iacono by The Associated Press was not immediately returned. The lawsuit filed Wednesday claims school officials violated Iacono’s constitutional religious liberty rights. The freshman has been suspended repeatedly
since classes started four weeks ago. She and her mother, Nikki, claim the nose piercing is part of their faith, not a fashion statement. The Johnston County school system has a dress code banning facial piercings, but allows for exemptions based on religious beliefs. An attorney for the Johnston County school district, Neal Ramee, declined comment. Ariana will be able to attend Clayton High School with her nose stud at least until Nov. 3, when another hearing is scheduled, said her attorney, Jon Sasser. The Iaconos belong to a small religious group called the Church of Body Modification.
Warrant: NC terror suspects traveled, bought guns RALEIGH (AP) – An unsealed search warrant says some of the North Carolina men accused of planning to wage a terror campaign traveled overseas and trained with weapons before their arrest.
According to a copy of the warrant posted on the website of WRALTV, Daniel Patrick Boyd traveled to Jordan and Israel in 2006 and 2007 to meet with supporters of terrorism against the U.S. and its allies.
The warrant says the FBI had been investigating Boyd and others since 2005. Prosecutors have said that Boyd, who is a convert to Islam, hoped to attack military personnel in the U.S. and in other
countries. Seven men are currently awaiting trial on a range of charges, and an eighth suspect is believed to be in Pakistan. A ninth suspect was arrested this year in Kosovo.
HIGH POINT – A child who was the victim of the city’s first homicide of 2010 died from a shotgun blast, according to an autopsy report. Ali Wael Hafez – a 12year-old boy who was part of a gathering at an apartment complex basketball court on Aug. 2 – suffered a shotgun wound to the upper right chest area, according to the N.C. Office of the Chief Medical Examiner’s findings from his autopsy, which were released this week. The wound damaged the victim’s internal organs, including his lung and liver. A medical examiner recovered multiple partially deformed, small diameter “bird shot” pellets and two pieces of plastic wadding from Hafez’s body, according to the report. Authorities have termed the shooting accidental, but an arrest was made in the case. A teenager who was visiting a friend at the Glenstone Trail apartment complex in northwest High Point was handling a firearm when it accidentally
discharged, striking Hafez, who was apparently a bystander in the crowd, police have said. Authorities have not revealed the circumstances that led to the shooting. Officers responding to the scene found Hafez lying on pavement in front of the complex basketball court. He was later pronounced dead at High Point Regional Hospital. They identified a suspect at the scene and seized the weapon used in the shooting. The autopsy report did not specify the type of shotgun involved. Artez Terrell McRae, 19, of of Stony Point Drive, Greensboro, was charged with involuntary manslaughter and has been free on $10,000 bond since the day after the shooting. Records show he has an appearance scheduled for Nov. 3 in Guilford County District Court. According to authorities, McRae has no prior criminal record and was not acquainted with Hafez. The charge filed against him indicates authorities believe there was negligence or recklessness involved in the circumstances that led to the shooting. pkimbrough@hpe.com | 888-3531

Students mistakenly shown gay porn IRWIN, Pa.

North Huntingdon police Sgt. Jeffrey Bouldin says Westmoreland County prosecutors de-
termined the incident at the Norwin High School assembly didn’t amount to a crime. The worker was trying to project a presentation stored on his personal flash computer drive when the porn instead popped onto the screen. The Pittsburgh Tribune-Review says Central Blood Bank sent a letter explaining the
situation to parents and saying the worker violated policies by not having a supervisor review his presentation, and by using a personal computer storage device. Attorney Peter Payne says he still plans to sue the blood bank on behalf of upset parents in the town about 25 miles east of Pittsburgh.

Saudi Arabian Foreign Minister Saud al-Faisal (left) leaves the Arab foreign ministers meeting in Sirte, Libya, Friday. Libya hosts a 1-day Arab League summit where Israeli-Palestinian talks top the agenda.
US gets month to revive talks SIRTE, Libya (AP) – Arab ministers agreed Friday to give the United States another month to try to persuade Israel to renew curbs on West Bank settlement construction and keep Mideast peace talks from collapsing. The one-month grace period was proposed by Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, who sought Arab support for the idea. The Palestinians say they won’t return to the negotiating table unless Israel renews its moratorium on new construction in West Bank settlements, which expired last week after 10 months. Israel has refused to resinstate the mor-

But the ministers issued another statement agreeing to resume meetings in a month to study alternatives and decide on next steps, giving the United States some breathing room. There was no immediate comment from the Israeli government. Direct U.S.-backed negotiations between Israel and the Palestinians began on Sept. 2, following several months of indirect contacts.

HAMBURG, Germany (AP) – The Islamic militant whose disclosures under U.S. interrogation in Afghanistan triggered Europe’s terror alert is an old friend of a man convicted in the 9/11 attacks and, as the strikes were being planned, frequented the same mosque where the Hamburgbased plotters often met, officials say. Hamburg security officials in August shuttered the Taiba mosque, known until two years ago as alQuds, because of fears it was becoming a magnet for homegrown extremists who, unlike foreigners, could not be expelled from the country. Ahmad Wali Siddiqui, a 36-year-old German of Afghan descent arrested by the U.S. military in July in Afghanistan has emerged as the latest link between Germany and al-Qaida’s worldwide terror campaign.

It’s not that union workers are ‘overpaid’ I’ve worked many jobs with many different people, and one thing I can honestly say is I never heard anyone say; “I’m overpaid.” Yet there seems to be a consensus among people, primarily nonunion workers, that union workers are overpaid. Not paid well or making good money; overpaid. The term “overpaid” generally coincides with referencing the pay scales of CEOs, athletes and entertainers. This type of reaction is sort of puzzling considering union workers are mostly working-class people, just like their nonunion counterparts. The difference being union employees are involved in wage negotiations instead of being content with what the employer decides for them. Additionally, union companies are responsible for wage and benefit matching by competing nonunion competitors. After all, people tend to gravitate toward the higher wage and benefit paying companies. Another point to consider is perhaps union employees are not so much overpaid as nonunion

There seems to be a consensus among people, primarily nonunion workers, that union workers are overpaid. Scott Diener employees are underpaid. Think about it; just as people complain about Mexicans “taking” our jobs for lower wages, nonunion employees are essentially the “low bidders,” too. Let’s say Smith Built Bus builds a facility in High Point. In order to keep the union out, the new company matches the pay and benefits to those of Thomas Built Buses. Would I be safe to bet the union naysayers would have the integrity not to apply for the positions offered out of concern of being overpaid? Yeah, right. SCOTT DIENER High Point

Bladen Journal, Elizabethtown, Oct. 4 Bladen County voters hardly need another good reason to head for the polls on Nov. 2, but there certainly are a few. Along with the fact that this county will be electing a new sheriff after what has seemed like an endless list of primaries and candidates, important races line the ballot. Right behind the sheriff’s race between Prentis Benston and Billy Ward is probably the district attorney race between Jon David and Butch Pope. Both races will be putting new men in the position after Steve Bunn retired as sheriff and Rex Gore was defeated by Pope in the May district attorney primary. There are other races still be decided as well, including two for county commissioner, a state representative post and a state Senate post. But higher up on the government ladder is the race for U.S. congressman in the 7th District between incumbent Democrat Mike McIntyre from Lumberton and newcomer Ilario Pantano, a Republican from Wilmington. McIntyre has served his constituents in North Carolina well, especially in his home region, for several terms. But that fact alone could be his downfall, given the nation’s ill will toward incumbents as this mid-term election draws near. Pantano, much like McIntyre, is a Christian man who promises to bring those kinds of values and morals to Washington. He seems energetic and has a history of serving the people. His shortcoming – which is a lack of political experience – may also be his strength on Nov. 2 as voters seek out new faces. In nearly every poll imaginable, McIntyre and Pantano are in a dead heat with about a month of campaigning left. It’s an uncommon position for McIntyre, who has all but been swept back into office in previous years by wide margins. This is one of those races where two votes – yours and someone else’s – could very well make the difference. We urge all registered voters to weigh their choices carefully, then put your decision to good use by voting. Whether it’s through early voting or absentee voting or at the polls on Nov. 2, each of the races being contested – as well as Bladen County’s 0.25-percent sales tax hike request – deserves your attention. Please plan to vote.

Marshall forces can produce victory with hard work
C
andidates will surely put “their money” or somebody’s money to their political-media-mouths, as Election Day approaches. And if the amount spent reflected around their waist, candidates like Richard Burr would be fat as a pigs! Comparatively, Elaine Marshall would be, well let’s say lean. For some time, I’ve looked at a number of other sources like the FEC, Opensecrets.org and others to study the financial engines that drive candidates. Last reported June 30, Burr had raised $9,012,987 and had on hand $6,260,867. Thirtyone percent of those contributions were through his political PAC “Next Century Fund.” Some of the corporate drivers, I mean contributors, are UPS, Verizon, Sallie Mae, Piedmont Natural Gas, FedEx, Duke Energy, R.J. Reynolds, Koch Industries, Blue Cross/Blue Shield, Bank of America, Home Depot and Abbott Laboratories to name a few. During the same period, Elaine Marshall raised $1,110,619 and had on hand $187,585. Two percent, I repeat 2 percent, of those funds came from PAC contributors and 91 percent from individual contributions. If money alone were the measure of success, the Marshall campaign might raise the white flag and call it a day. In mid-September, Rasmussen Reports polled 500 “most likely voters in North Carolina” and showed Burr 54 percent, Marshall 38 percent and undecided 7 percent. Having an opponent with more than seven times the amount of money, I’d say those are pretty good polling numbers for the lean Democrat.
The question begs however, who is doing the polling and who are they talking to? I am yet to find among the consistently “likely voters” that I know, one who has gotten the much discussed and relied upon poll-call. So if one takes OPINION into account, the optimisticnever-been-counted-in- theSondra polls-always-votes voter, then Foy Marshall’s run for the U.S. ■■■ Senate seat looks even better. According to the same poll 71 percent of Marshall’s supporters are sure of whom they will vote, compared to 59 percent of Richard Burr’s. Now consider, the 4.5 percent margin of error. Elaine Marshall has a proven record in North Carolina. Among other things she has fought Wall Street to return money to N.C. investors, helped enact tough ethics laws and brought the first lobbyist charges in the state’s history (www. elainemarshall. com). For the next few weeks, those of us who support her need to work for her and for Democrats. Volunteer, donate, make telephone calls or put up a sign. Each one can reach one. Then on Election Day, do something. Spread the word, motivate someone to vote, VOTE, take someone to the polls to vote. Prove that working together for a common good cause is the real measure of success. SONDRA FOY lives in High Point and is the Christian mother of three sons.

‘Yoga not Christianity’ Southern Baptist Seminary President Albert Mohler asks for Christians to avoid practice LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) – A Southern Baptist leader who is calling for Christians to avoid yoga and its spiritual attachments is getting plenty of pushback from enthusiasts who defend the ancient practice. Southern Baptist Seminary President Albert Mohler says the stretching and meditative discipline derived from Eastern religions is not a Christian pathway to God. Mohler said he objects to “the idea that the body is a vehicle for reaching consciousness with the divine.� “That’s just not Christianity,� Mohler told The Associated Press.
Mohler said feedback has come through e-mail and comments on blogs and other websites since he wrote an essay to address questions about yoga he has heard for years. “I’m really surprised by the depth of the commitment to yoga found on the part of many who identify as Christians,� Mohler said. Yoga fans say their numbers have been growing in the U.S. A 2008 study by the Yoga Journal put the number at 15.8 million, or nearly 7 percent of adults. About 6.7 percent of American adults are Southern Baptists, according to a 2007 survey by the Pew Research
Center Forum on Religion & Public Life. Mohler argued in his online essay last month that Christians who practice yoga “must either deny the reality of what yoga represents or fail to see the contradictions between their Christian commitments and their embrace of yoga.� He said his view is “not an eccentric Christian position.� Other Christian leaders have said practicing yoga is incompatible with the teachings of Jesus. Pat Robertson has called the chanting and other spiritual components that go along with yoga “really spooky.�

In the universal language of facial expressions, a smile almost invariably expresses goodwill. A smile tells strangers that we are friendly and confirms to friends and family that they are in our good graces or that we are there to help. It costs nothing and yet confers benefits far beyond the small effort required to turn a frown into a smile. Smiles are contagious, spreading happiness like a beneficial virus. There is even evidence that smiles make their wearers happier, perhaps by supplying the brain with feedback from the face. How it works doesn’t matter; what does matter is that smiling makes us feel happy and makes those around us feel happy too. Call to mind all that you have to be happy about and let yourself smile accordingly. Even better, smile at someone and spread the good feeling. And, if you don’t have much to smile about at the moment, take heart and know that your problems are temporary and that God loves you.

Life-changing association began at age 9 M
y project was to make a door stop. It had one major purpose, to hold a door open. I enjoyed that so much that I made several during the next few months. Such a simple instrument was involved with a lifechanging experience for me. When I began my fourth-grade year in the Kanawha County Public School system at Decota, W.Va., near the head of Cabin Creek in the eastern part of the county, I was 9 years old. One of the most significant things I have ever done took place soon after the new school year got under way – I became a member of the 4-H Club. By the next summer, I was 10 years old and attended my first 4-H Camp. Mabel Vickers was our county 4-H Club agent and she had a way of encouraging many kids to attend camp. It was my first trip away from home by myself. Early one Monday morning, I boarded a big yellow school bus and headed for Fort Lee, a rustic looking fort-like camping area at Dunbar, W.Va. It was located next door to West Virginia State University, where my friend, Dr. Hazo Carter, serves as the university’s president.
It was an exciting week and I enjoyed meeting boys and girls from throughout the county. Many of us would meet during the year on sports teams and each succeeding summer for the next SHARING 4-H Camp. Two special friends were Dick THE SPIRIT Coble and the late Larry Wampler, both outstandBill ing athletes in high Ellis school and college. The swimming pool was the largest body of water I had ever seen. The waves carried me into water over my head. I remember going down and back up twice and then I lapsed into unconsciousness. When I woke up, I was in the arms of Phyllis Blackwood, a beautiful young 16-year-old lifeguard. I closed my eyes quickly and allowed her to carry me as long as she needed to. Her 17-year-old boyfriend was another young leader. When they grew older, Frank Gillespie and Phyllis Blackwood were married more than 67 years ago. This wonderful lady,
who pulled me out of the water after I had gone limp, lives 10 miles from my house. By the time I was 15, I was chief of the Delaware Tribe. My friends Coble
Today, through America’s 109 land-grant universities and its Cooperative Extension System, 4-H reaches every corner of our nation. and Wampler also became tribal chiefs the same year. We have just celebrated National 4-H Week, Oct. 3-9. My wife Kitty is from Springfield, Ohio, where A. B. Graham was the leader in founding the 4-H Club movement in 1914. Today, through America’s 109 landgrant universities and its Cooperative Extension System, 4-H reaches every corner of our nation – from urban neighborhoods to suburban schoolyards to rural farming communities.
With a network of more than 6 million youth, 540.000 volunteers, 3,500 professionals and more than 60 million alumni, 4-H helps shape youth to move our country and the world forward in ways that no other youth organization can. The 4-H Pledge has influenced my life in a profound way since I was 9. I still take it seriously. Here it is. “I pledge my head to clearer thinking; my heart to greater loyalty; my hands to larger service; and my health to better living; for my club, my community, my country and my world.� This pledge, especially as a child and teenager, always reminded me of words written about the boy Jesus. “And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men� (Luke 2:52). I hope you have had the privilege of being involved with the 4-H Clubs of America and that you will encourage boys and girls to be active participants in this monumental program. BILL ELLIS, P. O.

An important tunnel for Jerusalem T
he year is 701 BC, you are in Jerusalem, and you are in deep trouble. The Assyrian king wants to attack your city. This means they will first lay siege, surrounding the city and cutting off supplies and water. You are the king, Hezekiah, and you have to decide what to do. So you decide to build a tunnel. Read on to discover why. This story is told in II Chronicles 32:1-8: Sennacherib king of Assyria planned to attack Judah. Hezekiah had all the wells outside the city walls filled in, which would cut off the water supply if Sennacherib made it to Jerusalem. But that led to another problem: the area inside the city walls had no reliable spring. Hezekiah decided to build a tunnel through rock, I repeat,
through rock to a spring outside the city walls, thereby allowing water to STUDYING come into THE CHURCH the city without the enemy Mark knowing it. Nickens This feat is ■■■mentioned in two different places: II Chronicles 32:30: “It was Hezekiah who blocked the upper outlet of the Gihon spring and channeled the water down to the west side of the City of David� and II Kings 20:20: “As for the other events of Hezekiah’s reign, all his achievements and how he made the pool and the tunnel by which he brought water into the city, are they not written in the book
of the annals of the kings of Judah?� In order for the water to flow from the spring into the city, the ending point of the tunnel had to be lower than the spring. This meant that they had to start digging at a low point inside the city walls. The point from which they started was 1000 feet from the spring. Yet the tunnel does not travel in a straight line, instead winding left and right until it arrives at the spring. In actuality, then, the tunnel is 1750 feet long, with a height tall enough to walk through. In a couple of places builders realized they were gong in the wrong direction and so stopped and corrected themselves in a new direction. Therefore, as one walks along the tunnel, there
are a couple of “dead ends.� Why bring this seemingly unimportant biblical point to light? Because this tunnel can be visited today! It is another example of something mentioned in the Bible which archaeologists have discovered. A great website which shows pictures inside the tunnel is http://www. bibleplaces.com/heztunnel.htm . Plus, at the end which is inside the city walls, the builders left an inscription on the wall. It describes the act of the two sides breaking through to each other (part of it is missing): “[...when] (the tunnel) was driven through. And this was the way in which it was cut through: While [...] (were) still [...] axe(s), each man toward his
fellow, and while there were still three cubits to be cut through, [there was heard] the voice of a man calling to his fellows, for there was an overlap in the rock on the right [and on the left]. And when the tunnel was driven through, the quarrymen hewed (the rock), each man toward his fellow, axe against axe; and the water flowed from the spring toward the reservoir for 1200 cubits, and the height of the rock above the head(s) of the quarrymen was 100 cubits.� How excited they must have been once they broke through!

Randolph, Davidson face shrinking tax base

Being all they can be to the beat
BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
TRIAD – Drops in tax revenues have caused municipalities in Davidson and Randolph counties to tighten their belts. As a study on city fiscal conditions for 2010 was released this week by the National League of Cities, finance officers in Randolph and Davidson reported decreases in sales tax revenue for the fiscal year ending in 2010. As a result, city officials said salaries have been frozen and budgets have been cut for departments and education. Thomasville Finance Director Tony Jarrett said sales tax revenue decreased 2.5 percent for the 2009-10 fiscal year compared to the previous year. Jarrett said the city of Thomasville experienced a 16 percent decrease in the fiscal year ending in 2009 compared to the prior fiscal year. Property tax revenue experienced a very minimal gain of not even 1 percent in the fiscal year ending in 2010, Jarrett said. “It’s very challenging to balance a budget in an environment when one of your main sources of revenue has decreased,” he said. Archdale Finance Director Lori Nurse said her city’s sales tax revenue dropped 5 percent for the fiscal year ending in 2010 compared to the previous year. The city also experienced a 9 percent reduction in sales tax revenue for the fiscal year ending in 2009. Archdale’s property tax revenue decreased by 0.9 percent for the fiscal year ending in 2010. “People are spending less,” Nurse said. “There’s less sales tax being generated.” In its 2010-11 fiscal year budget, the city of Trinity budgeted 6 percent less than the previous budget for sales tax revenue. City officials expect that the change in the state’s method of distributing sales tax from one based on population to a point-of-sale basis will adversely affect the amount of sales tax the city receives. Counties in North Carolina experienced additional revenue loss for the fiscal year ending in 2010 because of the Medicaid swap with the state. The North Carolina Association of County Commissioners had made relieving counties of Medicaid expenses its top legislative goal for counties. County officials wanted a swap with the state because of escalating costs with Medicaid. Counties can make up the difference by raising their sales tax by a quarter-cent or levying a property transfer tax of about one-half percent. Will Massie, assistant county manager for Randolph, said his county experienced a 26.5 percent reduction in sales tax for the fiscal year ending 2010 compared to the previous year. Davidson County Assistant Manager Zeb Hanner Jr. said his county was down 27.5 percent in sales tax revenue for the fiscal year ending 2010 compared to the previous year. dignasiak@hpe.com | 888-3657

Triad students to play on national stage BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
TRIAD – Two of the Triad’s own have been selected to participate in the 2011 U.S. Army All-American Marching Band. Members of the U.S. Army AllAmerican Bowl Selection Tour teams on Friday visited Wheatmore High School to name senior trumpet player Alec Neal as part of the band. The selection tour on Tuesday will visit Ledford High School to select senior drum major Dewey Mullis to the band. The U.S. Army All-American Bowl, which will be nationally televised on Jan. 8 in the Alamodome in San Antonio, features the best high school football players in the nation and has helped launch the
careers of Adrian Peterson, Mark Sanchez, Tim Tebow and Michael Oher since its inception in 2001. Neal and Mullis are among 125 marching musicians who have been selected as part of the band. “It meant the world to me because I’ve always wanted to do something that would leave my mark here in Trinity because Trinity is a small town,” Neal said of the selection. “... This gave me the opportunity to be able to do something big that would leave my mark in this community.” Wheatmore Band Director Jade Tolles said Neal’s selection to the band is a “pretty big deal” for the school. “We are a new program, so we need recognition,” she said. “I’m excited for him.”
Neal and Mullis will perform with the band during the halftime show of the football game. While he is a drum major, Mullis will play the euphonium. According to Ledford Band Director Mike Howell, Mullis is the second student from Ledford and Davidson County to be selected to the band. “It is definitely an honor,” Mullis said. Mullis and Neal had to do audition videos to be considered for the selection to the band. “When I found out that I had actually made the band, I was just completely overwhelmed, excited and just grateful,” Mullis said. dignasiak@hpe.com | 888-3657
Coleman refuses to apologize for remark at meeting BY DAVID NIVENS ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
GUILFORD COUNTY – County Commissioner Carolyn Coleman lashed out Thursday against a conservative group claiming she insulted a member who immigrated from Romania. Isabella Adkins from Conservatives for Guilford County and several others supporting her with signs demanded Coleman apologize during time given to speakers from the floor for her remarks during a Sept. 16 discussion on a federal recovery bond vote. “Your comment to me was hurtful,” Adkins said. “Your disdain has caused me to question you even more. We are citizens. We are concerned about the attitude of this board.”
ISSUES
–
Taxes: Conservatives for Guilford County also has criticized commissioners for asking voters Nov. 2 to raise the sales tax by a quarter-cent to help pay off more than $500 million in school and jail constriction bonds voters approved in 2008. Coleman, a Pleasant Garden Democrat, later read a statement explaining her remarks and criticized the group as “irresponsible” for some of the claims it has made during board meetings. “This is an irresponsible group,” Coleman said. “You are off course.” Coleman recalled that Adkins suggested the new downtown Greens-
boro jail annex would be completed $21 million under budget and the surplus would be used to build new offices for Sheriff BJ Barnes. County officials rejected that as rumor. “I feel I owe no explanation or apology to citizens who are not familiar with what transpired in our last meeting,” Coleman said. During debate on approving the $26 million bond package for a $38 million, 10-story downtown Greensboro luxury Wyndham hotel, Coleman said she was in favor of the special taxfree bonds and that she was showing support for capitalism. When that comment drew boos and hisses, Coleman offered a comment that the group interpreted as: “I don’t know where you’re

from, but I am from America.” Adkins took offense claiming that as a naturalized American, the comment was directed at her and disrespectful. “This is capitalism. This is America,” Coleman recalled she said during the discussion. “I said I don’t know where you come from, but I’m from America.” Coleman denied that she was talking about Adkins. “That was strange because we had just given $89,000 in incentives to a companyheadquartered in Sweden and was moving American headquarters to High Point. Why do they think I was talking about their member? I could have been talking about somebody from Mars.” dnivens@hpe.com | 888-3626

Caladium are shady eye-catchers sun-resistant varieties are now in cultivation. Approximately 98 percent of all caladium bulbs are from Lake Placid, Fla., ECOLOGY in the United States. In recent Gwyn years many new Riddick varieties have â– â– â– become available through breeding by the University of Florida and plant breeder Robert Hartman Ph.D. The variety I grew was Aaron, which is a brilliant white leaf with dark green edges. Even though they are not hardy in our zone, corms are dried and stored for the winter when temperatures fall to 65 degrees, and stored moderately dry (not bone-dry) over the winter at temperatures between 56 and 65 degrees. Caladiums grow from corms and can be propagated by dividing the tubers.
Soil pH should be between 6.0 and 6.5. A 2- to 3-inch layer of pine bark mulch or compost should be incorporated into the soil to improve soil aeration, drainage and organic matter content. Root and foliage growth will be limited unless the soil is well aerated. Also, incorporate a complete fertilizer such as 8-8-8 at a rate of 1 to 2 lb per 100 square feet of bed area (2 Tbsp per square foot). Plant corms 8 inches apart for small tubers and 12 inches apart for large tubers. Both roots and shoots emerge from the top of the tuber; place the knobby side up. Fancy leaf standard varieties grow best in semi-shade locations, and with their full heart-shaped leaves are best suited for mass plantings because of their larger and striking appearance. Strap leaf varieties produce a smaller pointed leaf, are generally low growing, and do best as accent or border
plants and in patio planters. Most strap leaf caladiums are sun tolerant and look great in combination with annual flowers in any landscape. I planted my corms (bulbs) after the last frost in the spring when night temperatures were greater than 55 degrees. They will rot if the temperature is cooler. I planted them 1.5 to 2.5 inches deep in well drainedsoil. Caladiums are rarely damaged by insects or related pests. Occasionally worms can attack foliage. Dipel works well. Aphids occasionally appear near petiole bases and newly emerging leaves. Color combinations include various shades of red, pink, white, green and yellow-green, with prominently colored midribs and contrasting margins. Cranberry Star produces stunning leaves with bright white and purple to red spots with slender green veins and a narrow green border around
each leaf. Firecracker Red is taller than other varietiesand grows in full sun. Moonlight’ has bright white leaves and grows well in all pot sizes. Tricolor butterfly is a novel lance leafed variety. Its elongated leaves have thick dark green veins which cascade from the plant center like butterfly wings. It will do well in sun or shade. Caladiums do well in pots, hanging baskets or the landscape and are one of the best performers in hard-to-please shady spots for nine months of color.

He is a Fellow in the Natural Resources Leadership Institute and is vice president of agricultural biotechnology for the North Carolina Biotechnology Center.

Girl rebels when multitasking mom gets behind the wheel
D
ear Abby: My mother does other things while she’s driving, and it’s a big problem for me. I only just got legal to be in the front seat (I’m 13). I don’t want to be in the car with her. She does things like put on lip liner and lip gloss and texts while she drives. She also takes both hands off the wheel and drives with her knees. When I ask her to stop, she tells me not to be a backseat driver. I have even told my grandparents what she’s doing. What else can I do? – Getting Gray Hair At 13 Dear Getting Gray: If ever I heard of someone who NEEDS a backseat driver, it is your mother. It’s bad enough that someone alone in a car would do the dangerous things she is doing, but for a parent to do it with a child in the car is beyond the pale. It’s child endangerment. Clip this column, circle your letter and show it to your mother! Dear Abby: Our youngest daughter, “Camille,� has been married
for a year. During this time my husband and I have watched Camille berate her ADVICE husband, “Mike,� in Dear front of us Abby and others. ■■■When I ask her why she does it, her answer is invariably, “He does these annoying things to tick me off.� I can’t stand how humiliating it must be for Mike. Camille’s husband is quiet and passive. Watching my daughter turn him into a wimp is heartbreaking. My biggest concern is that they are expecting their first child and, when it comes to mood swings, Camille is in rare form. I can’t help but wonder how all this will play out. Will this drive Mike off, leaving Camille a single mother? I have tried talking to my daughter about how wives and husbands should respect one another, but she refuses to listen. Can you advise me in this sad situation before it is too late?
– Worried Grandma-ToBe Dear Grandma-ToBe: Yes, take a look at how Mike’s mother treats his father. It’s possible that Mike is passive and accepting of your daughter’s abuse because that’s what he was brought up to think is normal. However, if that’s not the case, warn your daughter again – and again – that if she continues her verbal abuse and he rediscovers his self- respect, she may eventually find herself raising their child alone. People who don’t value what they’ve got often wind up losing it. Dear Abby: My daughter is in a new relationship. One thing I have noticed that seems to drive guys away is her use of the cell phone. Before texting became popular, she would feel the need to call a guy during the day to wish him a good day at work. Then she’d try to call him at night to “see how the day went.� Now, with texting, she’ll text him “good morning,� do it again sometime during the day if he doesn’t

answer back, then text again in the evening. I have told her many times that guys get annoyed by this after a few days, but she doesn’t understand. She says it’s a gesture of caring. My daughter is 27, so I can’t take the phone away. How can I tell her to back off? – Trying To Help in Raytown, Mo. Dear Trying To Help: The next time your daughter tells you that what she’s doing is a “gesture of caring,� tell her it is also a gesture of STALKING. Remind her that most men like to at least think they are doing some of the chasing, and then tick off for her the names of the many (I’m sure) men she has chased off by doing what she’s doing. If that doesn’t help her to see the light, then accept it – she’s going to be single for a long, long time. DEAR ABBY is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

O
ne of the most successful ornamental plants I planted in my landscape this year for nine months of color was caladium. The two forms most widely cultivated are called “fancyleaved� and “lance-leaved.� The former is the more commonly seen and is the traditional caladium of cultivation; the leaves are more heartshaped. The latter has more lance-head-shaped leaves. Most Caladiums in cultivation grow to about 24 inches high and 24 inches wide, although dwarf varieties are now in cultivation. According to Wikipedia, the genus Caladium includes seven species, which are indigenous to Brazil and to neighboring areas of South America and Central America. They grow in open areas of the forest and on the banks of creeks and go dormant during the dry season. Most varieties prefer partial to full shade, although

Cy the Cynic says that some days it’s all you can do just to keep up with the losers. Cy was South in a duplicate game, and after North bid 3NT, Cy gave up on a grand slam and settled for six spades. He took the ace of clubs at Trick One, drew trumps, and led a diamond to the ace and a LOW diamond. East’s discard revealed the 4-1 break; West won and led another club. Cy ruffed, led a diamond to dummy and tried a heart to his queen, declining to try for a squeeze. Making six.
spades was a losing contract.
GOOD RESULT
DAILY QUESTION
“Wasn’t plus 1,430 a good result?” I asked. “At my table South carelessly ducked the first round of diamonds, and East won with the ten and led a heart. South had to guess whether to finesse in hearts or rely on a 3-2 diamond break or a squeeze, and he went wrong. As you played, you knew diamonds weren’t breaking.” “We scored below average,” the Cynic growled. “Some North-Souths bid 6NT. They were plus 1,440 when the heart finesse won.” Matchpoint duplicate can be a cruel game. Six
You hold: S 4 2 H 8 5 3 D A K 8 7 4 C Q 4 3. Your partner opens one club, you respond one diamond and he bids one heart. What do you say? ANSWER: Expert opinion would vary. A pass would be too timid -- game is possible – and neither a bid of 1NT with weak spades nor a raise to two hearts would be attractive. A rebid of two diamonds is possible though that action would suggest a longer suit. My choice would be a preference bid of two clubs. South dealer Both sides vulnerable
Saturday, October 9, 2010 CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Steve Burns, 37; Scott Bakula, 56; Tony Shalhoub, 57; Sharon Osbourne, 58 HAPPY BIRTHDAY: This is the year to complete whatever needs doing if you want to maintain your reputation. Opportunities will only be available to you if you have proven you can deliver the goods. Intensity, determination and passion will play a big role in what you accomplish. Now is the time to show your strengths and offer your innovative suggestions to people in a position to walk by your side. Your numbers are 3, 10, 18, 24, 30, 38, 43 ARIES (March 21-April 19): Don’t let responsibilities stifle your plans with loved ones. Voicing your opinion will greatly affect someone you deal with regularly. Before you say anything, think twice. Be diplomatic with your responses. ★★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Whether it’s business or personal, take part and show your interest in whatever is going on around you. The situation you face will be affected by what you contribute, not what you don’t want to do. Have a positive attitude. ★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Put work aside and focus on having fun. Younger and older people in your life can offer you insight into something you are overlooking. Change may not be welcome but it may be necessary. ★★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): You may have to rethink your strategy regarding home improvements or dealing with the burdens you take on. Plan something enjoyable for the evening hours. You deserve a break. ★★★★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Get out of the house and away from anyone who complains or projects dissatisfaction. Contracts will not be fulfilled or turn out as planned. You need a change, but not one that takes place at home. ★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Love and romance, coupled with favorable emotional interaction, will lead to an interesting outcome. Spend time experiencing something totally unique. Travel plans to an exotic destination will give you something to look forward to. ★★★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Look beyond any adversity you face. You are better, stronger and wiser and there is no need to argue a moot point. Bypass anyone who tries to change your plans or get in your way. Strength and courage, coupled with honesty, integrity and good character, will be your forte. ★★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Emotions will be hard to hide and sharing your thoughts and intentions is probably your best bet. With change will come greater opportunity but first you must let go of what’s not working for you. ★★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Know what you are talking about before you offer your opinion. Being blamed for exaggeration will not put you in a good position. Tell it like it is and have the facts and figures to back you up. ★★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Stick to the projects you promised you would complete. You will face criticism if you don’t do everything by the book. Focus on your attributes and offer the services you know you can do well. An added responsibility will entail a journey. ★★★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You’ll have lifealtering choices to make. There are positive possibilities but, if you choose to take shortcuts, you will wish you hadn’t. Look at the legal and financial aspects and calculate the risks involved. ★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Put all your emphasis on the here and now.

Most concussions occur without consciousness loss
D
ear Dr. Donohue: In his last football game, my son was hit hard. He didn’t lose consciousness, so I guess he didn’t have a concussion. He seemed a bit off it, and his coach wouldn’t let him play any more that day. What is the safe length of time to keep him from playing? The coach won’t let him in a game for a whole week. Are there guidelines for this? – N.D.
BLONDIE
Your son’s coach has his players’ best interests at heart. Head injuries have short- and long-term consequences and should be dealt with according to the most conservative directions. Let me clear up a misconception you have: Loss of consciousness isn’t a criterion for determining a concussion. Loss of consciousness elevates a head injury into a serious category, but a concussion is any head injury that produces even short-lived brain impairment. Confusion, temporary loss of memory, vacant staring, answering questions slowly and stumbling are a few of the signs that the brain has sustained a concussion. Yes, there are guidelines for judging the seriousness of a head injury and the time required for recuperation. The Cantu guidelines are widely used. They categorize concussions into three grades. Grade 1 is any of

the above signs I mentioned or the inability to retain new information. If HEALTH these symptoms Dr. Paul disapDonohue pear in a ■■■ half-hour, a player can resume playing in a week. A Grade 2 concussion is one where there is a brief loss of consciousness, less than one minute, or when the other symptoms listed above last longer than a half-hour but not longer than 24 hours. A player with a Grade 2 concussion ought not to play until two weeks have passed and unless all symptoms have been gone for a full week. A Grade 3 concussion is a longer loss of consciousness (more than a minute) or of concussion symptoms lasting for more than 24 hours. These players should not return to play for a full month. Dear Dr. Donohue: I have a problem. My thumb really hurts, especially when I bowl. I have been bowling since my early 20s, and now I am in my mid-70s. My hand doctor, who performed successful surgery for Dupuytren’s contracture, had multiple X-rays done, and the results were inconclusive. The report
said negligible arthritis might be present. The doctor said it could be bowler’s thumb. Just what is that? He recommended not using my thumb for a few months to see if it improves. Do you have any ideas? Are my bowling days over? – D.S. A bowler’s thumb is pain at the base of the thumb, usually with a lump of hard tissue. The hard tissue is scar tissue. It encases a nerve to the thumb and exerts pressure on that nerve. Pain results. Do exactly as your doctor says. Take a vacation from bowling. Then, when the pain goes, make some modifications in your bowling ball. The thumb hole should be enlarged and fitted to your thumb. The space between the thumb and the finger holes might have to be revised. You probably would benefit from using a lighter ball. Your bowling days aren’t over. A hand doctor is a superspecialist in matters like this. If he made the diagnosis of bowler’s thumb, I believe him. Other conditions can cause similar pain. DR. DONOHUE regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but he will incorporate them in his column whenever possible.

NWG takes thriller over Bison BY STEVE HANF SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE
HIGH POINT – A 20-second turn of events in the fourth quarter gave High Point Central a chance to win Friday’s game against Northwest Guilford. Just enough mistakes on defense throughout the night handed the chance back to the Vikings. “Mental errors,” Bison coach Wayne Jones lamented. “When you have mental errors and blown assignments, you’re going to give yourself an opportunity to lose.” Northwest took the chances and ran with them, scoring the go-ahead touchdown on Matthew Pawlowski’s 2-yard plunge with 24 seconds to play in a 24-21 victory. The win lifted the Vikings
(6-2, 3-0 Piedmont Triad 4A) into a first-place tie with Ragsdale atop the league standings. Central, which visits Parkland next week, fell to 5-2, 1-1. “They made some plays when they had some opportunities to make them,” Jones said. “You’ve got to give them credit.” Two huge plays will bother the Bison when they review this game tape. In the first half, Northwest was poised to punt from its own 43-yard line before a Central timeout with 1:37 to play. Northwest returned ready to run a play – but didn’t have to when the Bison jumped offsides. Nine plays later, Dalton Dillon darted in from 2 yards out for a score that made it 10-7 Northwest with 31 seconds left in the half. The back-breaker would come much later, again on fourth
down. The Vikings faced fourthand-8 from the Central 15 with a minute to play when Chris Eley caught a short pass. Still some 3 yards shy of the first-down marker, Eley slipped what appeared to be a sure tackle and lunged toward the stick to set up firstand-goal at the 6. Moments later, Pawlowski slipped over the goal line with the go-ahead score. “It was fourth-and-short and we had a chance to make a play,” Central defensive standout Johnathan White said. “We just didn’t. We gave them position.” The Bison ran only one offensive play in the fourth quarter prior to their last-gasp drive in the waning moments. After Northwest used an 18-play, 85yard drive that took 9:07 off the clock to go ahead 17-14, Central seemed poised to reclaim the
momentum. Lashuran Monk returned the ensuing kickoff 77 yards to set up the offense at the 20-yard line. Drew Adams, who had already hit Justin Johnson on a 10-yard scoring strike in addition to running in from 1 yard out, faked a handoff on first down. Rakeem Grimes raced untouched through the hole with Adams hot on his heels. The convoy reached the end zone with ease, and Austin Miller’s PAT made it 21-17 with 4:07 remaining.

Tigers tame Cowboys BY DANIEL KENNEDY SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE
JAMESTOWN – Luke Heavner completed 10 of 12 passes for 220 yards and three scores and Barry Brown added a four-yard touchdown run in a masterful first-half performance as Ragsdale recorded a 42-0 shutout of Southwest Guilford Friday night. Ragsdale tacked on two fourth-quarter touchdowns – including a fourth score from Heavner – but the Tigers had the game well in hand at halftime with a 28-0 advantage. “The receivers caught everything, even the bad balls that fell low and away,” Heavner said of his career night. The senior quarterback got things started on Ragsdale’s first possession when he threaded four of his first five attempts for completions and capped a 10-play, 57-yard drive with a 15yard TD to DeShawn Shouse. The Tigers second drive was far less lengthy. Following two unsuccessful running plays that left the Tigers backed up at their 8-yard line, Heavner threw a beautiful ball to Anthony Stewart, who caught it around midfield and sprinted the rest of the way for a 92-yard score. The Cowboys were unable to match Ragsdale’s offensive firepower and were without several key playmakers. The most recent name to make the

Ragsdale’s Winston Craig (53) closes in on Southwest Guilford’s DeMario Smith during Friday night’s Piedmont Triad 4A Conference showdown in Jamestown. list of players unable to suit up was quarterback Airyn Willis. Backup DeMario Smith went down temporarily with a minor injury in the third quarter, causing Cowboys coach Scott Schwarzer yet another anxious moment, before making his way back onto the field moments later. “We’re playing with third-string guys on both sides of the football,” Schwarzer said. “The team that you saw the first five weeks of the year isn’t here anymore.”
Ragsdale (7-1, 3-0 Piedmont Triad 4A) proceeded cautiously with its pivotal offensive weapons in the fourth quarter. Heavner departed after hooking up with Justin Briley for his final touchdown with 11:38 remaining. He finished 14-for-19 with 266 yards passing. “I was pleased with our kids. I thought they played hard,” Norwood said. “We were able to do some things we wanted to do throwing the football. We came out of it pretty
injury-free and ready to go.” The Tigers face a huge conference showdown at Northwest Guilford next week. Southwest (34, 0-2 PTC) will attempt to get well at home against Glenn.

North Forsyth cruises past Ledford for 42-0 win BY JASON QUEEN SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE
WALLBURG – Relying heavily on the running game, Ledford isn’t built to come back from large deficits. Friday’s Mid-Piedmont Conference opener with North Forsyth was the worst case scenario. The Vikings did essentially anything they wanted from the opening kickoff, and the Panthers couldn’t muster any offense
in a 42-0 loss in Wallburg. Ledford coach Chris Adams could only tip his hat to North Forsyth after the disappointing loss. “They’ve got a good package,” Adams conceded. “Their record’s very deceiving; they’ve played a heckuva schedule.” The Vikings marched 69 yards on seven plays on their first possession. Quentin Thompson capped the drive with a 2-yard plunge, and the rout was on. Quarterback Edward Valentine scored
on a 17-yard scamper through traffic, then finished the next drive with an 8-yard scoring run after a botched snap. Valentine found Kyle Onuma for a 20-yard touchdown pass on North’s next possession, and the Vikings finished the half at the Ledford 1 before time expired. As the two teams headed to the locker rooms, the game seemed even more one-sided than the scoreboard suggested. North piled up 327 yards of offense before the intermission,
while suffocating Ledford and limiting the Panthers to 18 yards. Ledford managed just two first downs, and one of those was the result of a roughing passer penalty on the visitors.

SMITH, MARTIN OUT FOR PANTHERS VS. BEARS

CHARLOTTE (AP) – The Carolina Panthers will be without top receiver Steve Smith and starting safety Sherrod Martin against Chicago because of injuries. Smith hasn’t practiced since spraining his left ankle in Sunday’s loss to New Orleans and has been in a protective boot this week. Martin has been sidelined since sustaining a concussion against the Saints. Linebacker Jamar Williams and right tackle Jeff Otah also won’t play Sunday against the Bears. Williams has a neck injury and Otah hasn’t played or practiced all season because of a knee problem. Running back DeAngelo Williams practiced for the second straight day Friday following an illness and is probable for Sunday.

Demon Deacons look to ground Navy BY GREER SMITH ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER
WINSTON-SALEM â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Getting his team ready to face a wishbone offense for the second straight week, Wake Forest coach Jim Grobe felt familiarity wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t necessarily breed success against visiting Navy today. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sure they saw what we did against Georgia Tech,â&#x20AC;? Grobe said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So it will probably be a wash.â&#x20AC;? What the Midshipman saw from the Demon Deacons against the Yellow Jackets was a switch to a 3-4 defense from a 4-3. Wake defended the wishbone option well enough to limit Tech to 209 rushing yards, lowering its average to 298.2 yards per game. But the Deacons
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ST. ANDREWS, Scotland â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Englandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s John Parry shot a 7-under 65 on the Old Course at St. Andrews on Friday to take a four-shot lead in the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship. Parry, coming off his first PGA European Tour victory two weeks ago in the Vivendi Cup in France, had a 12-under 132 total. Swedenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Martin Erlandsson was second after a 68 at Carnoustie.
TOMS LEADS BY ONE ST. SIMONS ISLAND, Ga. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; David Toms shot a 4-under 66 on Friday to take a one-stroke lead over Joe Durant in the McGladrey Classic, the second of the PGA Tourâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s five Fall Series events. The 43-year-old Toms, coming off a first-round 64, had a 10-under 130 total on the Sea Island Clubâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Seaside Course, hitting 16 of 18 greens in regulation in the second round. Durant followed his opening 65 with a 66 in perfect conditions. Heath Slocum (66) and Rich Barcelo (67) were 8 under, and Brian Gay (65) and Mathias Gronberg (67) followed at 7 under.
COCHRAN SETS PACE POTOMAC, Md. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Buoyed by birdies on the first five holes, Russ Cochran shot a course-record 6-under 64 to take a one-stroke lead in the Senior Players Championship. The 51-year-old lefthander, 6 under overall at TPC Potomac at Avenel Farm, and is seeking his third win in his last four events on the Champions Tour. Michael Allen (67) was second, and Mark Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Meara (68) followed at 4 under.
THREE SHARE LPGA LEAD PRATTVILLE, Ala. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Japanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Mika Miyazato shot a 9-under 63 for a share of the second-round lead in the Navistar LPGA Classic with Na Yeon Choi and Cristie Kerr. Choi birdied the final four holes for a 64, and Kerr shot a 67 to match Miyazato at 12 under.
HPU volleyball rolls SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE
HIGH POINT â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The Panthers picked up their second straight Big South win with a sweep of Gardner-Webb Friday at the Millis Center. Senior Stephanie Wallin had a match-high 13 kills and HPU was strong from the service line with eight aces in the match. The Panthers won 2521, 25-17, 25-16. The win lifts HPU to 9-10 (4-1 Big South). Freshman setter Maddie Simpson had 33 assists and senior libero Julie Hershkowitz had 25 digs.
SKINNER LEADS HURRICANES PAST WILD
---
HELSINKI (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Rookie Jeff Skinner scored the only goal of the shootout and Cam Ward was strong in goal, leading the Carolina Hurricanes past the Minnesota Wild 2-1 Friday for a sweep of the two season-opening games in Finland. Skinner, an 18-year-old forward, also set up Carolinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first goal from Tuomo Ruutu, which tied the game two minutes into the second period. The Wild opened the scoring 17 minutes into the first period on Andrew Brunetteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s goal. Ward made 41 saves for Carolina, stopping Mikko Koivu, Brent Burns and Antti Miettinen in the shootout to preserve the victory. The game was played before a sellout crowd of 13,465 and was more confrontational than Thursday nightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 4-3 victory by Carolina. There were two early fights and a nasty one between the Wildâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Eric Nystrom and Tom Kostopoulos of the Hurricanes.
McMurray captures Cup pole FONTANA, Calif. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Jamie McMurray has just missed the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship several times, including an oh-so-close 14th-place finish this season. On a fast-but-slick track in California, the Daytona 500 and Brickyard 400 champion was able to find more speed than any of the Chase drivers. McMurray earned his fourth pole of the season Friday, posting a fast lap of 185.285 mph around Auto Club Speedwayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s two-mile oval while many of the Chase drivers struggled. Elliott Sadler, another non-qualifier for the Chase, was just behind McMurray and will start on the front row Sunday in the 400-mile race. Matt Kenseth, 11th in the Chase standings, qualified third, and
Greg Biffle was seventh after entering eighth in the Chase. Points leader Jimmie Johnson was in solid position, too, qualifying eighth. Nine drivers enter the weekend within 101 points of the Chase lead, but that could change quickly if a few donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do a whole lot of passing in the wide lanes at Auto Club Speedway. Five of the top six spots for Sundayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s race will be non-Chase drivers. Carl Edwards, fourth in the Chase standings, qualified 20th. Kevin Harvick, whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just ahead of Edwards in the title race, was 21st. Tony Stewart, 10th in the Chase, was 22nd. Kurt Busch, 70 points behind Johnson in sixth, labored through qualifying and will start back near the ownerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s points qualifiers in 38th. Denny Hamlin qualified 34th.
Reds unravel, Phillies win 7-4 to take 2-0 lead PHILADELPHIA (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Reds right fielder Jay Bruce missed a line drive in the seventh inning, allowing two runs to score, and the Philadelphia Phillies took advantage of Cincinnatiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s shoddy defense to earn a 7-4 win Friday night for a 2-0 lead in the best-of-five NL division series.

After Roy Halladay threw the second no-hitter in postseason history in Philadelphiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 4-0 victory Wednesday, the Reds were determined to show their resilience. Brandon Phillips hit a leadoff homer on Roy Oswaltâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fourth pitch and the Reds built a 4-0 lead before their defense and bullpen unraveled.

over the past four seasons, each winning twice. The familiarity includes knowing the Midshipmanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s version of the wishbone is different from Techâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and that it relies more on keeping the ball on the ground. Navy did not attempt a pass on the way to defeating the Deacs 13-10 in a driving rainstorm last year in Annapolis, Md. This season, the Middies have gained 1,027 yards on the ground and 479 by passing while going 2-2. The Middiesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; least number of rushing attempts has been 43 and the most was 72. They have not thrown the ball more than 18 times in any contest. Fullback Vince Murray leads Navy with 269 yards, with quarterback Ricky Dobbs second with 217.
â&#x20AC;&#x153;(Navy) does run some different plays,â&#x20AC;? Haynes said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They are a different animal the way they play. They are fast and tenacious and go after your knees on every play. Even though it is the same animal, it will be a different feel.â&#x20AC;? True freshman Tanner Price, recovered from the concussion that kept him out of last weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s game, will start at quarterback as expected. Skylar Jones, who played most of the Georgia Tech game at QB after Ted Stachitas and Brendan Cross were injured, will be the main backup. Cross, who injured his non-throwing shoulder, is available if needed. Stachitas, who broke a small bone in his back, is not. gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3556
UNC ready for Williamsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; return vs. Clemson CHAPEL HILL (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The key players are trickling back for North Carolina. The Tar Heels hope the victories keep coming, too. Coach Butch Davisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; defense will welcome back safety Deunta Williams today when UNC plays host to Clemson. Williamsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; four-game suspension complete, and now North Carolina hopes his return will match the one made by fellow safety Daâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Norris Searcy â&#x20AC;&#x201C; who brought back an interception for a touchdown in last weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rout of East Carolina.
â&#x20AC;&#x153;I wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t say that (Williams is) rusty, because heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s obviously been practicing, and he knows the schemes, he knows the coverages and the checks and stuff,â&#x20AC;? Davis said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Each of the players that has subsequently come back, the one thing that theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve all commented is just getting into the pace, becaue the pace of practice is clearly not going to be the pace at which youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to play in the game.â&#x20AC;? Without question, the dominant issue in Chapel Hill this fall has been the ongoing, two-pronged
NCAA and school investigation, and the impact it has had on the program. For everyone who wears the Carolina blue, the challenge has been keeping things together despite a seemingly endless stream of distractions. North Carolina (2-2, 0-1 Atlantic Coast Conference) has won two straight since dropping its first two games. The Tigers (2-2, 0-1) will look to test the Heels with an offense that ranks third in the ACC, averaging 341â &#x201E;2 points, and is looking to bounce back from a 30-21 home loss to No. 13 Miami.
Wolfpack hopes to end skid vs. Boston College RALEIGH (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Since Tom Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brien took over at N.C. State, the Wolfpack just canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem to beat his former Boston College program. They get another shot at the Eagles today. Boston College has scored plenty of points and made life difficult on the coach who led the Eagles for 10 seasons. BC has won all three meetings since Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brien arrived here before the 2007 season, scoring at least 37 points each time â&#x20AC;&#x153;The last three years, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been pretty bad against BC,â&#x20AC;? Wolfpack receiver Darrell Davis said. Perhaps the most immediate challenge facing the Wolfpack (4-1, 1-1 Atlantic Coast Conference) will be to shake off the disappointment from last weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s loss to Virginia Tech. N.C. State held its first national ranking in seven years and a 17-0 lead, yet watched the Hokies rally in the second half to take a 41-30 win. The loss drained the buzz around a
program that had limped through injuries or slow starts during the previous three seasons. But Davis said the players are trying not to let the loss hang around very long. Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brien also pointed out the loss gave the Wolfpack a series of things to focus on for the week of practice. N.C. State had nine penalties against the Hokies, threw three interceptions and allowed a 92-yard kickoff return for a touchdown. The Eagles (2-2, 0-1) are preparing for their first road game, though theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve lost their past two games to Virginia Tech and Notre Dame by a combined score of 50-13. Boston Collegeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most obvious question is at quarterback, where coach Frank Spaziani recently benched Dave Shinskie and turned to true freshman Chase Rettig. But Rettig is hobbled by an ankle injury suffered last week, and Spaziani will start Shinskie over sophomore Mike Marscovetra against the Wolfpack.
ECU, USM meet in offensive showdown HATTIESBURG, Miss. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; In its most important game of the season to date, Southern Miss will be without leading rusher Desmond Johnson. The 5-foot-11, 195-pound sophomore was suspended on Thursday for a â&#x20AC;&#x153;violation of team rules,â&#x20AC;? leaving the Golden Eagles short-handed going into todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Conference USA showdown against East Carolina. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rushed for 296 yards and three
touchdowns this season. Though Johnsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s absence isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t good news, Southern Miss (4-1, 1-0 C-USA) has plenty of capable backs to make up the lost yardage, including V.J. Floyd, Kendrick Hardy and Tracy Lampley. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s good news, considering the Golden Eagles might need to put a bunch of crooked numbers on the scoreboard to top East Carolina (2-2, 2-0)
and its potent offense. East Carolina has won back-to-back Conference USA championships, but lost a huge senior class of 28 players to graduation after the 2009 season. So far, the results have been mixed. The Pirates, who won their consecutive championships largely because of terrific defense, are now scoring 36 points per game, but giving up nearly 42.

High Point native Miller pins lifetime achievement award
P
reparing to be honored for contributions in amateur wrestling, High Point native Johnny Miller pays homage to the man who started his career. Miller, who is 89 and lives in Cookeville, Tenn., is set to be receive a lifetime achievement award from the National Wrestling Hall of Fame in ceremonies at Knoxville, Tenn. He said nothing would have been possible if he had not been among those SPORTS who accepted an invitation from local YMCA Greer secretary Edgar Hartley Smith to play sports during the ■■■ Great Depression. “He would come around the playgrounds with some soccer balls and get us to play.” Miller said. “He got a wooden building down on South Main and put some mats in it and taught us wrestling and soccer and tumbling. He helped change my life. I
was running around with some pretty dangerous guys.” The change put Miller on a path that included getting a scholarship to wrestle at Appalachian Miller Teachers College, getting his masters degree at Emory University, getting his doctorate and coaching wrestling at Vanderbilt, coaching wrestling and golf at Emory, heading the Physical Education department at Indiana University in Pennsylvania and teaching physical education and coaching wrestling at Tennessee Tech in Cookeville from 1971 until he retired in 1992. Miller admits his award is more for his entire body of work than for his accomplishments on the mat competing for the local Y’s AAU team starting at age 12 at High Point High from 1934-39 at 121 pounds and Appalachian from 1940-42 at 136 pounds. In recent years, he helped fund the building of a wrestling facility in
Cookeville where high school wrestlers from the area are allowed to practice and has established a scholarship endowment. “I won a couple of Southern AAU championships,” Miller said. “We had some guys who were top 10 wrestlers but I wasn’t. I made a huge contribution toward to the building of a wrestling building at Tennessee Tech, where kids in the junior highs from the surrounding can come and practice.” Miller said that the Y teams could beat Duke and the University of North Carolina. “But we could never beat Appalachian, which was a power back then,” Miller said. “The Appalachian coach noticed me and I got a scholarship. I decided that was for me because in the summer during high school, I worked at Myrtle Desk, off-bearing the wood when it went through a table saw. The guy running the saw said if I did a good job, I might get to operate it in four or five years. I decided I wanted to wrestle.” His career on the mat came to an end
when he was called to active duty during World War II. “The guys on the wrestling team at Appalachian joined the Marine reserves when the war broke out,” Miller said. “And then we got called up.” He was assigned to the 29th regiment, 6th Division. He fought on Guadalcanal and led his rifle regiment on Okinawa. His outfit was on Guam, preparing for the invasion of Japan, when the war ended. “I lot of guys didn’t make it back,” Miller said. “I believed my wrestling skills help me make it through. Throughout his coaching and administrative career, which included coaching Bobby Jones’ son in golf at Emory, Miller said always relied on the guidance received from Hartley. “He was a firm believer in Y triangle of spirit, mind and body,” Miller said. “He believed that you needed to be physically fit and religious and have a good moral compass.” gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3556
Quick saves Raiders from slow start also starred from his inside linebacker spot against the Camels (0-6, 0-1). Andrews plays host to Trinity next Friday.
T.W. ANDREWS 28, ATKINS 0 WINSTON-SALEM – Xavier Quick rushed for 145 yards and three touchdowns Friday night to lead T. Wingate Andrews to a 28-0 victory over Atkins. The Red Raiders (4-3, 1-0 PAC-6 2A) struggled to a 7-0 halftime lead before exploding for three touchdowns in the third quarter. Quick opened the night with a 5-yard scoring run, then started the late burst with a 54-yard dash. Andrews extended the lead to 21-0 on Marquez Swinton’s 35-yard pass to Mark Johnson before Quick capped his big night with a 2yard score. Quick finished with 145 yards on 25 carries. Andrews was set to go ahead by an even larger margin before a penalty brought back one touchdown and a fumble at the 1-yard line killed another. Tiquan McClain paced the defensive effort with an interception and forced fumble. Jeremy Wright tallied a pair of quarterback sacks, and Mike McGill
KERNERSVILLE – Nick Sgroi bulled over the goal line from 1 yard out with a minute to play, lifting Bishop McGuinness past East Surry 28-25 on Friday night. The Villains scored a touchdown in each quarter and led 21-10 before the Cardinals put together two touchdowns in the fourth quarter to go up 25-21. Sgroi, who gained 110 yards on 12 carries, also scored on a 52-yard run and threw a 32-yard touchdown pass to Marty DeFrancesco. It was Sgroi’s only completion of the night in four attempts. Bishop (6-1, 2-1 Northwest 1A/2A) rushed for 277 yards on 37 attempts. Jared Pluciniczak gained 138 yards to lead the Villain attack. He opened the scoring with a 5-yard run.
Scoring summary
THOMASVILLE – Central Davidson was supposed to challenge Thomasville in the Bulldogs’ Central Carolina Conference opener at Cushwa Stadium Friday night. Thomasville’s players never got the memo. The Bulldogs made a resounding statement that the CCC title is theirs to lose following a 48-7 dismantling of a Spartan squad that some thought, on paper, had the talent to stay with Thomasville. Paper and the real thing proved to be polar opposites. The Bulldogs outplayed CDHS in virtually every facet of the game. “We heard they were talking junk at the JV game,” THS’ Quin Riley said after rushing for 128 yards and three touchdowns. “We decided to show them out on the field. They shouldn’t have judged us before we played them.” Plenty of early fireworks went off during a first quarter that featured three touchdowns. On Thomasville’s second possession, with CDHS spying in the backfield, Sam Nelson executed a perfect play-action fake and found Quindale Williams open down the middle of the field for a 51yard touchdown pass. The Spartans bounced back to knot the game at seven late in the opening quarter following a 6 play, 72yard drive. Saig Skeen got CDHS on the board with a bruising 37-yard scamper to the end zone, breaking several arm tackles along the way. “They are a very talent-
ed and tough team,” THS assistant coach Dickie Cline said of Central. “This was a great team effort. We had a good mixture offensively and the defense, again, played lights out.” Momentum wasn’t on the Spartans side very long. Riley made sure of that. The senior needed all of one play to put Thomasville back in front as he broke free down the near sideline on first down and simply outran Central defenders for a 66-yard score, surging the Bulldogs back in front to stay, 14-7. “I figured it would be close, but I had no idea we would blow them out,” linebacker Robert Davis said. Matters only worsened for the Spartans from there. Over the next 12 minutes and change, Kesean Green scored from four yards out following a Josh Wright fumble; Nelson connected with Sharaun Mouzone on a 6-yard touchdown; and Riley tacked on six more with a short run, as Thomasville went to locker room, 34-7. Nelson added his third touchdown pass and second to Mouzone early in the third quarter. Robert Davis scooped up a fumble and rumbled 39 yards for a score minutes later. Nelson completed all nine of his passes for 171 yards.

Yellow Jackets race past Golden Eagles, 56-14 BY ZACH KEPLEY THE THOMASVILLE TIMES
LEXINGTON – One answer was not nearly enough for the East Davidson against Lexington on Friday night at Philpott Memorial Stadium. East had a response to an early Lexington touchdown to tie the game in the first quarter, but it was all Yellow Jackets from that point on, as LHS danced its way to a 56-14 Central Carolina Conference win on Homecoming. MarQuez Grayson scored with only 46 seconds gone in the game, but the Eagles soon had the equalizer. Taking their time to march down the field, the Golden Eagles used nine plays to move the ball
to the Yellow Jacket 12. On third down, quarterback Taylor Warren lofted a pass to Josh Craven to the corner of the endzone, tying the score at 7-7. The speed of Lexington was simply too much for EDHS to handle. Starting at the East 38 after a big kickoff return by James Drummond, Lexington needed 1:30 and three plays to finish the job. Codie Boger was the recipient of the glory this time around, dicing his way for a 27-yard run and a 14-7 lead. “The first drive was great and we executed well, but we knew it was going to be a struggle for us defensively,” said East coach Bryan Lingerfelt. “They are just so explosive on offense.” A quick series by East put the potent Jacket offense back on the
field at their own 35 with 2:54 remaining in the first quarter. After losing seven yards, Grayson ran free again, slicing and dicing around the defenders to take it 72 yards for the score. Once again it was the East offense producing no first downs on their drive, giving it back to a Lexington team firing on all cylinders. It took the Jackets a little longer this time around, but the end result was yet another touchdown, putting an exclamation point on a game that continued to get out of hand. By halftime it was all Jackets as they held a 42-7 lead and a little over 300 yards of offense. “We have some guys dinged up on defense, but we have got to find some answers and something that will work,” Lingerfelt said.

Bank of America halts all foreclosures WASHINGTON (AP) – A mushrooming crisis over potential flaws in foreclosure documents is threatening to throw the real estate industry into chaos, as Bank of America on Friday became the first bank to stop taking back tens of thousands of foreclosed homes in all 50 states. The move, along with another decision on foreclosures by PNC Financial Services Inc., adds to growing concerns that mortgage lenders have been evicting homeowners using flawed court papers, without verifying the information in them. Charlotte, N.C.-based Bank of America Corp., the nation’s largest bank, said Friday it would no longer complete foreclosures in all 50 states as it reviews documents used to process fore-

Treasury rates fall for 5th straight day NEW YORK – Treasury rates are slipping for a fifth straight day after the government released another gloomy jobs report. Yields on notes ranging from two to seven years fell. The yield on the five-year note fell to 1.11 percent from 1.12 percent, while the twoyear note’s yield edged down to 0.35 percent from 0.36 percent. The yield on the 10-year note was flat at 2.38 percent.

closures. That applies to homes that the bank takes back itself and those that it transfers to investors such as mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. A week earlier, the company had said it would only do so in the 23 states where foreclosures must be approved by a judge. The bank did so in reaction to mounting pressure from public officials inquiring about the accuracy of foreclosure documents. A document obtained last week by the Associated Press showed a Bank of America official acknowledging in a legal proceeding that she signed thousands of foreclosure documents a month and typically didn’t read them. The official, Renee Hertzler, said in a February deposition that she
signed up to 8,000 such documents a month. A company spokesman, Dan Frahm, said the bank still believes its documents are correct but wants to satisfy officials’ concerns. “Our ongoing assessment shows the basis for our past foreclosure decisions is accurate,” he said. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., who had called for such a suspension, applauded the bank “for doing the right thing by suspending actions on foreclosures while this investigation runs its course.” Banking and housing analysts, meanwhile, fear the foreclosure document problems could prolong the housing bust, and hundreds of thousands of inevitable foreclosures will be pushed off into some legal limbo for years.
Public-sector cuts cost 95,000 jobs WASHINGTON (AP) – A wave of government layoffs in September outpaced weak hiring in the private sector, pushing down the nation’s payrolls by a net total of 95,000 jobs. The unemployment rate held at 9.6 percent last month, the Labor Department said Friday. The jobless rate has now topped 9.5 percent for 14 straight months, the longest stretch since the 1930s. The report is the final one before the November elections, which means members of Congress will face voters next month who are frustrated with an economy that is still struggling to create jobs. The figure that may matter most is 18,000 – the number of positions lost after subtracting the 77,000 temporary census jobs that ended in September. That marks the first loss for that grouping since last December, according to econo-
mists at Nomura Securities. Another troubling sign is a sharp rise in people working part time who would prefer full-time work. Their ranks have increased by nearly 1 million since July and total 9.5 million, the most on records dating from 1955. When adding that to the 14.8 million unemployed and the 2.5 million who have stopped looking for work, there are a startling 26.8 million Americans who are “underemployed.” That’s 17.1 percent of Americans who want to work. Government job losses led the declines in September. A net total of 159,000 public-sector jobs were eliminated. Local governments cut 76,000 jobs last month, most of them teachers. That’s the largest cut by local governments in 28 years. States cut 7,000 jobs. The rest were census jobs.
Treasury: 8.1 million hires qualify for tax credits WASHINGTON (AP) – Businesses have hired 8.1 million workers under a new program that provides tax breaks for hiring unemployed workers, the Treasury Department said Friday. The report, however, does not estimate how many of those jobs would have been added without the tax break. PresidentBarackObama signed a law in March that exempts businesses hiring people who have been unemployed for at least 60 days from paying the 6.2 percent Social Security
payroll tax through December. Employers get an additional $1,000 credit if new workers stay on the job a full year. Treasury released a report Friday estimating that from Feb. 10 to Aug. 10, businesses hired 8.1 million workers who qualify for the tax breaks. They added 1.2 million from July 10 to Aug. 10, the report said. Many employers have also cut jobs, but there has been a net increase of 613,000 jobs this year, according to the government’s business payroll survey.

NEW YORK (AP) – The Dow Jones industrial average closed above 11,000 for the first time in five months Friday as hopes built that the Federal Reserve will take more action to get the economy going again. A weaker jobs report added to a series of tepid economic indicators in recent weeks that have built expectations that the Fed will announce new steps to encourage borrowing when it meets in early November. Jason Pride, director of investment strategy at wealth management firm Glenmede, said that the weak report gives the Fed “the window of opportunity to take action.” The Fed’s goal, if it starts buying bonds again, would be to drive interest rates down further from their already low levels and spark borrowing and spending. In corporate news, Alcoa Inc. rose 5.7 percent after its earnings beat analysts’ expectations late Thursday. The aluminum maker also raised its forecast for global aluminum consumption. Many companies have said international operations will be the driving factor in improving profits in the coming quarters because U.S. growth is so slow. About three stocks rose for every two that fell.

Dollar loses ground Sanofi-Aventis to lay off 1,700 in US after jobs report NEW YORK (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The dollar lost more ground Friday after a disappointing U.S. jobs report boosted market expectations that the Federal Reserve is closer to taking more action to stimulate the economy. The prospect of more dollars flowing into the system helped push stock markets higher but piled pressure on the dollar, which has fallen to its lowest level in nine months against a broad basket of currencies. The dollar also sank 0.3 percent to a near 15-year low of 82.04 yen and below the level that forced the Bank of Japan to intervene last month to rein in the export-sapping appreciation of the yen. It remained flat against the euro. Traders resumed selling dollars after a report showed that overall nonfarm payrolls in the U.S.
fell 95,000 in September, despite a 64,000 increase in private sector jobs. Analysts had been expecting the private sector to add 75,000 jobs. Investors now think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s likely that the Fed will resume buying bonds to spur spending, a process known as quantitative easing. The most likely date is thought to be Nov. 3 at the conclusion of the Fedâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s next rate-setting meeting. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a soft jobs report, and the gain in private sector employment is still not strong enough to absorb entrants coming into the work force where you need jobs growth of at least 150,000 per month,â&#x20AC;? said Neil MacKinnon, global macro strategist at VTB Capital.
TRENTON, N.J. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Sanofi-Aventis SA, the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fourth-biggest drugmaker, said Friday it is eliminating 1,700 jobs in its U.S. pharmaceutical business in a restructuring triggered by growing generic competition and other factors. The news comes as Sanofiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s struggle to buy U.S. biotech firm Genzyme Corp. drags on. The layoffs amount to about 25 percent of the

workers in the companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s U.S. pharmaceutical business, and will primarily hit sales representatives around the country and administrative staff at Sanofiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s American headquarters in Bridgewater, N.J. About 1,400 sales staff will be laid off, as well as about 300 staff in various administrative jobs, Sanofi-Aventis spokesman Jack Cox said.

Officer arrested in shootings AP
President Barack Obama watches as outgoing National Security Adviser James Jones speaks in the Rose Garden of the White House in Washington.
National security adviser resigns WASHINGTON (AP) – Gen. James Jones, the gruff-talking military man President Barack Obama drafted as his national security adviser, announced Friday he was quitting after a tenure marked by ambitious foreign policy changes and undercurrents of corrosive turf battles. Jones will be replaced by his chief deputy, Tom Donilon, a former Democratic political operative and lobbyist who in many ways is already the day-to-day leader of the White House national security operation. The move deepens a season of White House turnover near the midpoint of Obama’s term, with White House chief of staff Rahm Emanuel departing last week, chief economic adviser Lawrence Summers leaving by year’s end and other changes expected before long. Obama described the transition from Jones to Donilon as expected and seamless, thanking both men in a sunny Rose Garden ceremony. The president put an emphasis on the patriotism of Jones, a Marine who served in Vietnam and retired as a four-star general after a career of more than 40 years.
2 workers rescued at Florida water tower HOLLYWOOD, Fla. (AP) – Two maintenance workers who were injured while working on a water tower in South Florida have been rescued. Hollywood city officials say the workers were sandblasting the inside of the Hollywood Water Tower Friday morning when the scaffolding somehow came loose. The men fell about 45 feet to the bottom of the empty water tower basin and were seriously injured. One man reportedly broke his leg but managed to grab his cell phone to call a supervisor. The supervisor then called 911. The other man who fell was reportedly knocked unconscious but later woke up.
LYNWOOD, Ill. (AP) – Authorities said Friday they arrested a smalltown police officer in a series of apparently random shootings along the Illinois-Indiana border that left one man dead and another two wounded. The case has unnerved residents in the rural towns since the shootings began earlier this week. Investigators said a disheveled Dorian man approached his victims with strange questions, asking about honeybees or construction material, before pulling out a gun. Brian Dorian, 37, was arrested on a murder warrant and held on $2.5 million bail, said Chuck Pelkie, a spokesman for the Will County state’s attorney’s office. Dorian was arrested at his home in northeastern Illinois and held at a jail in Joliet, said Kathy Hoffmeyer, a spokeswoman for the Will County sher-

Will County investigators talk outside the home at 32652 Stoney Island Ave. in rural Beecher, Ill. where two workers who were renovating the house were shot on Tuesday morning. Authorities arrested Brian Dorian, a small-town police officer, for the series of random shootings that occurred in rural Illinois and Indiana and left one man dead and another two wounded. iff’s department. Dorian, a police officer in Lynwood, has been on medical leave with an injured shoulder since October 2009, said Eugene Williams, mayor of the village of about 7,400 people on the Illinois-Indiana border. Lynwood is about
30 miles south of Chicago. Williams did not have any other details but said he was told last week that Dorian would not be returning to duty soon. He said he knows the officer casually and, until Friday morning, knew of no problems with or
concerns about him, other than his injured shoulder. “He seems like a regular guy to me,” Williams said. “It’s so disappointing to say that because you always wish you could have picked out something (but) he was always polite, just
like the rest of the guys.” Dorian’s neighbor in nearby Crete, Robin Schmitz, said Dorian never showed any signs of being “mentally unbalanced,” and even as recently as Thursday, “he didn’t seem freaked out at all” when she talked to him.
2 injured when gunman opens fire at school CARLSBAD, Calif. (AP) – Two students were injured Friday when a man fired several shots at an elementary school before he was tackled by bystanders, authorities said. The injuries were not lifethreatening, said Carlsbad police spokeswoman Fiona Everett, who did not know the nature of the wounds. The North County Times re-
ported the students were shot in the arm. Terry Lynn told KNSDTV he looked out his window to see a man park his van, jump over a fence at Kelly Elementary School, walk across a field, and fire a .357 Magnum revolver toward a crowd of children. “He was saying something about the president, he was ranting,” Lynn said. Lynn said he screamed, “No!

The school was placed on lockdown.
No!” and rushed to the scene. By the time he arrived, construction workers had tackled the suspect. He helped restrain the man until police arrived. “It was very chaotic,” he told the television station. Witnesses said the man appeared to be firing randomly and was holding something that looked like a gas tank. “I heard the first gunshot and

Hartley’s wife, Tiffany, says she and her husband were riding Jet Skis back from Mexico on Sept. 30 when they were attacked by Mexican pirates in speedboats who opened fire and shot David Hartley in the back of the head. Tiffany Hartley has said she tried to rescue him when he fell into Falcon Lake, but that she fled to U.S. waters as the pirates continued shooting.

Actress Juliette Lewis injured in hit-run crash

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Brett Favre is accused of sending racy messages and photos to a former sideline reporter while he played for the New York Jets.
NFL looking into Favre allegations FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) – The NFL said Friday it would review allegations involving the Vikings’ Brett Favre, who the website Deadspin said sent racy messages and photos to a former game hostess while he was the
Jets’ quarterback in 2008. The league action comes one day after the site posted a video that included below-the-waist photos, said to be of Favre. The Vikings will travel to New York to play the Jets on Monday night.
BURBANK, Calif. (AP) – Actress Juliette Lewis has been injured in a hit-andrun crash in Burbank, police said. Lewis was a passenger in the back seat of a Lincoln Town Car Wednesday night when a driver ran a stoplight, smashed into Lewis’ vehicle and kept going, Sgt. Sean Kelley said. The car was found a short distance away, but the driver had fled the scene. Lewis complained of pain in her head, back and neck and
s o m e bruising. She w a s taken to a hospital for Lewis evaluation but her injuries were not serious, Kelley said. The driver will be arrested on suspicion of felony hit and run when found, Kelley said. Lewis received a best supporting actress Oscar nomination for her role in the 1991 film “Cape Fear.”
WASHINGTON (AP) – Abbott Laboratories said Friday it will withdraw its diet pill Meridia in the U.S. and Canada, after coming under pressure from health regulators who say the drug increases the risk of heart attack and stroke in patients with a history of heart disease. Companies have struggled for decades to develop drugs that help people lose weight without dangerous side effects. The withdrawal of Meridia leaves just one prescription drugs on the market for long-term weight loss – Roche’s Xenical, which is not widely used. Several other generic drugs are approved for shortterm weight loss, including phentermine. Food and Drug Administration scientists said they requested the withdrawal because Meridia’s risks were not outweighed by “the very modest weight loss that people achieve on this drug.” On average, patients lost five pounds with the drug. “Physicians are advised to stop prescribing Meridia to their patients and patients should stop taking this medication,” Dr. John Jenkins, the FDA’s director for new drugs, said.

Museum showcases nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s early founders T
ime traveling â&#x20AC;&#x201C; taking a walk back in time. If you think about it, museums are a bona fide type of time machine as compared to the paradoxical quantum theoretical time machines portrayed in science fiction. What I am trying to say is, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s go to the Museum.â&#x20AC;? That is just what the High Point Museum Guild did as they organized a daylong bus trip to the North Carolina Museum of History in Raleigh. It had been a while since the Museum Guild planned a bus trip and, if they need encouragement for another one, they got it. The trip was quickly sold out ABOUT and even TOWN had a Mary waiting Bogest list. The master planners of the Raleigh trip were Pat Plaxico, Bill Phillips and Guild President Penn Wood. We left from the High Point Museum parking lot precisely at 8 a.m. The agenda included the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Discover the Real George Washington Exhibitâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;Behind the Veneer: Thomas Day, Master Cabinetmaker.â&#x20AC;? As the bus hummed down the interstate, Wood took advantage of his â&#x20AC;&#x153;captiveâ&#x20AC;? audience to talk about the upcoming programs that the Museum Guild offers the third Wednesday of each month. Its mission is to further the interests of the Museum and to work in concert with the High Point Historical Society. By the way, the High Point Museum is one of the best deals around â&#x20AC;&#x201C; it is free and takes you on a time travel of High Point including John Coltrane and the recently inaugurated High Point Heroes. Some of the upcoming programs of the Museum Guild include Walt Turner discussing High Point and the North Carolina Railroad, Anne Andrews addressing the early days of the Little Red Schoolhouse and ringing out of 2010 will feature the Holiday Open House at the Museum. Memberships are offered to belong to the Guild but everyone is welcomed at the monthly programs. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a great opportunity to both learn more about High Point and to socialize with others who share an interest in preserving High Pointâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s history. Wood also spoke of the very special evening program held a few days earlier celebrating the Treaty of Paris signing in 1783, which ended the Revolutionary War and gave America our freedom from England. How apropos that this historical celebration was made possible through a partnership of The Alexander Martin Chapter of the National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR), the High Point Historical Society and sponsored by the Museum Guild. DAR regent Susie Phipps introduced Travis Bowman, a sixth generation grandson of Peter Francisco. Bowman, in costume reenacted a historic the Revolutionary War Hero dialogue sometimes referred to as â&#x20AC;&#x153;American Hercules.â&#x20AC;? Patrons mingled enjoying hors dâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;oeuvres as a slide show of the Diplomatic Recepâ&#x2013; â&#x2013; â&#x2013;
tion Rooms of the U.S. Department of State was shown on a large screen. These incredible rooms were created by the Treaty of Paris Society. High Pointâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s own David Hayworth is a founding member of that society and was presented with a commemorative limited edition â&#x20AC;&#x153;Treasures of Stateâ&#x20AC;? book in appreciation of his generosity. Hayworth displayed the book (under glass) for the historical celebration. Conversation ceased as we approached the N.C. Museum of History and were graciously welcomed by Museum Executive Director Ken Howard. He whet our historical appetite as he talked a little about the exhibits that we would see. The N.C. Museum of History is the only Museum in the entire Southeast to host the Washington historical and history-making exhibit. Both exhibitions definitely had the WOW factor. The George Washington exhibit is totally mesmerizing and it is virtually impossible for anyone, whether history buff or not, not to become completely engrossed and develop a deeper admiration for our countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first president. The biggest WOW came from the life-size wax figure of Washington sitting on his horse. It was so lifelike and accurately portrayed that one believed that at any minute he was going to get off the horse and come over to shake our hands. I did expect it but it didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t happen. Also of note is the only surviving set of dentures worn by Washington. These were made of ivory, not of the noted wood but still to keep them in Washington held his mouth tightly giving an austere image. That austere image was immortalized in the famous portrait painted by Stuart. As we began out tour through the exhibit, I overheard an interesting conversation between former regent of High Pointâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Alexander Martin DAR Laine Ruehle and Director Howard. I â&#x20AC;&#x153;scooped snoopedâ&#x20AC;? closer and am glad I did. I found out that Ruehle is a descendant of George Washington and an active member of the National Society of Washington Family Descendants. Washington and Ruehle share a common great grandfather, Col. William Ball. Ruehle almost accidentally found out that she was related to Washington about four years ago, unfortunately after both of her parents had died so they would never know about this famous connection.

Special touches can create a beautiful bathroom MELISSA RAYWORTH FOR THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
F
ive years ago, the ideal master bathroom was supposed to be large and lavish, with a huge Jacuzzi tub and a mile-long marble vanity. Times have changed, of course, and so have budgets. “Everyone’s scaling down in every single room,” says Sabrina Soto, a real estate agent and host of HGTV’s “Real Estate Intervention” and “Get It Sold.” And yet, Soto says, people still want their bathroom to be something special. It’s where their day begins and ends, “so it’s really a destination for them within their homes.” How can you create a fabulous bathroom without overspending? Soto, decordemon.com founder Brian Patrick Flynn and Los Angeles-based interior designer Betsy Burnham weigh in on the best ways to create an extraordinary, truly personalized bathroom:
CUSTOM CREATIONS Burnham often makes medicine cabinets for clients. It’s surprisingly simple: “The contractor or builder creates a box for me, and I pick a wonderful frame at my framer and have a mirror made. We use a big hinge on the side that opens 180 degrees.” “In a bathroom, you want to use every bit of space you have for storage,” she says. “So it’s a great way to have an original piece over your sink” and also create ample shelf space. Rather than buying a complete sink and vanity, Flynn suggests choosing a cabinet or dresser at a flea market and then having a sink fitted into the top. Choose a cabinet with legs if you want the illusion of more floor space. You’ll just need a carpenter to cut holes in the top and back. Then a plumber can attach the sink and install the whole thing.
THE RIGHT MATERIALS Consider the overall design of your home as you
choose the permanent elements of the bathroom. “A more classic bath in a classic, traditional house really does ask for ceramic tile” in crisp white or a soft cream, Burnham says. “If you’ve got a more modern house, and you’re putting in metal windows, then I love stone” for floors, countertops and even walls. If the walls are a solid, neutral color, Burnham likes to go “a bit crazier on the floors, like a black and white pattern or a stone mosaic.” A wooden bathroom floor is also a possibility. The wood can be treated to resist moisture and can be painted any color. What about wallpaper? It’s hugely popular right now, though it’s more common in small powder rooms than in master baths. If you don’t want to commit to an entire room of wallpaper, Soto suggests papering one wall in a large, bold pattern.
CHOOSING HUES Like Burnham, Flynn favors baths done in all white or black and white. These choices “never get old,” he says, “and then any single color you mix in will go great.” You can bring in a bold accent color by painting one wall, or just through towels and accessories. In choosing accent colors, Soto says, pick something that works well with the decor of the master bedroom. Another color tip, this one from Soto: Use darker shades of grout, because they’re easier to keep looking clean.
SARAH DORIO | AP
Designer Brian Patrick Flynn updated this bathroom by painting hardwood floors white with porch and deck paint. Flynn shared that although he loved the kelly green painted walls, the tone was unflattering on skin tones. He now chooses bathroom paint colors which compliment client’s complexions.
POPULAR SPLURGES “Instead of a big Jacuzzi tub, people want a soaking tub. Or they’re getting rid of the tub altogether,” says Soto. “People would rather have a huge shower that maybe has two showerheads, or do the steam-room shower.” Rain and waterfall showerheads come in many styles, and some units have sprays that run head-to-toe. If you want a tub, consider a freestanding model. They are modern versions of old clawfoot tubs, but with a base that goes all the way to the floor. They feel more
like a distinctive piece of furniture than a built-in part of the bathroom. Heated floors are a splurge that some people consider well worth it. Heated towel racks, which are less expensive, offer some of the same luxury. And some of Burnham’s clients say they must have a TV in the bathrooom for watching news in the morning. One last fabulous touch? Flynn loves using a chandelier in place of a basic ceiling light.

Adjusting the ‘seasoning’ for selling T
here are three basic ingredients in the recipe for selling a home: location, condition and price. Sellers have the most control over that final ingredient, price. If a home isn’t selling after a couple of months, that element will likely need some adjustment. Generally, if your home isn’t selling in the average amount of time that others on the market are, overpricing is the probable culprit. Deciding how much to adjust your asking price will depend on a re-evaluation of your local market. Even if you’re confident that
you priced fairly and correctly from the beginning, you may find yourself overpriced if local conditions have declined or have not seen any REAL ESTATE recent improvement. Now may be Ken the time to consult Wall with your listing ■■■ Realtor and ask for a new CMA, or Comparative Market Analysis. The CMA will report the current asking prices, current selling prices, and prices for homes whose listings have expired.
Now may be the time to consult with your listing Realtor for a new CMA or Comparative Market Analysis. Forget about comparing asking prices, because the market has not yet shown if those will sell or not. Prices at which homes did sell are a good figure to heed, but you’ll learn the most from the
prices at which homes did not sell or expired. After your Realtor’s explanation of the CMA, make sure your new price reduction is in line with final sales prices and well below the expired listing prices.

Triad among more affordable markets SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE
WINSTON-SALEM – Coldwell Banker Real Estate LLC released its Home Listing Report, a snapshot survey of U.S. four-bedroom, two-bathroom home listings, which found a $1.7 million difference between America’s most expensive and most affordable housing markets. Newport Beach, Calif., led the list of most expensive real estate markets in America, with an average home listing price of approximately $1.83 million for property listings meeting the subject home criteria. By contrast, America’s most affordable housing market was Detroit, Mich., with an average home listing price of approximately $68,000. Home listing prices in Greensboro average
$204,383 and in WinstonSalem $207,874, making the Triad one of the more affordable markets in the nation. Triad listings compare to the average listing price of homes in Mankato, Minnesota ($203,245) and Ormond Beach, Florida ($207,380). The Coldwell Banker Home Listing Report (HLR) is the brand’s latest development designed to provide comprehensive information on real estate data from around the country for homebuyers and sellers. The HLR provides the average home listing price of more than 18,000 four-bedroom, twobathroom properties on HYPERLINK “http:// coldwellbanker.com/” \t “_blank” coldwellbanker. com that were listed between February and August 2010 from nearly 300
select U.S. markets where Coldwell Banker Real Estate has a presence. The U.S. average for the surveyed listings was approximately $353,000. Markets included in this report were required to have at least six properties fitting the above criteria within the relevant timeframe. Known for its sandy beaches and historic Balboa Pavilion (established in 1906), Newport Beach, the most expensive market, has been the backdrop to numerous television shows including “The O.C.” and “Arrested Development.” Detroit, the most affordable market, is the only major U.S. city that looks South to Canada. Residents of the Motor City take great pride in Red Wings hockey and ap-
preciate the city’s hardworking industrial and automotive history. “The HLR is a great way for people who are curious about home listing prices to get a glimpse of various markets,” says Beverly H. Godfrey, President/CEO, Coldwell Banker Triad, Realtors. “By reviewing the report data, people can truly recognize the local nature of real estate.” Coldwell Banker Real Estate has released national real estate market reports annually for many years to provide consumers with insight into local market conditions,” said Jim Gillespie, chief executive officer, Coldwell Banker Real Estate LLC. “Our study shows that homeownership in the United States is generally affordable, with nearly 30 percent of the studied mar-
kets averaging $200,000 or less for a four-bedroom, two-bathroom home – a size many buyers aspire to own. Today those who have the financial resources and a desire to move up to a larger home have a unique opportunity to take advantage of historically low mortgage interest rates coupled with comparatively lower prices and greater selection.” Godfrey also indicates that through the comprehensive HLR section on HYPERLINK “http://hlr. coldwellbanker.com” http://hlr.coldwellbanker.com, consumers can research home listing values in their area and others around the United States to gather preliminary intelligence about the affordability of homes from one market to another.

Selling a ‘premium property’ in the present market D
oes the home you plan to sell have such alluring features as 10-foot ceilings, a fireplace or a sunroom? With such visual enhancements, your place could rightfully go by the name real estate agents reserve for the best on the market: “a premium property.” No doubt you’re justifiably proud of your showplace. But that doesn’t mean you can fetch a price substantially higher than what the sellers of similar homes have obtained in your neighborhood recently, says Tom Early, a real estate broker and former president of the National Association of Exclusive Buyer Agents (www. naeba.com). “In most places, buyers still have a terrific amount of clout,” he says. Granted, the real estate market resembles a beauty contest in many respects; homes that show well and are in the best condition typically attract the most offers and sell sooner. Buyers are naturally drawn to homes that are well furnished and freshly painted. They also like properties with elegantly restored hardwood floors or brand-new carpet. But no seller can afford to be complacent so long as the U.S. economy continues to go through choppy waters. “In most areas, the pressure is still 100 percent on the sellers because
there’s a lot of property on the market, including foreclosures,” Early says. Still, there are several ways that the sellers of a showcase home can capitalize on its good looks. Here are a few tips: • Choose a listing SMART MOVES agent who understands Ellen how to create excellent Martin visuals. ■■■ “Anyone who owns a home in model condition should be doubly sure it looks good in all its advertising and marketing materials,” says Dorcas Helfant, a real estate broker and former president of the National Association of Realtors (www.realtor.org). Visuals include photos for print advertising and videos for online listings, such as virtual tours that have become an important marketing tool. As Helfant says, a growing number of agents have become skillful users of digital photography and can now produce the kinds of pictures that sellers need in order to appeal to prospects. • Price modestly despite your property’s appeal. Does the property you’re selling have a number of features that excite buyer interest, such as professional appliances in the kitchen and a master suite
with a large bathroom? If so, you may be tempted to raise your asking price over that which neighbors without such features are seeking. But Helfant warns against doing so, lest you scare away price-conscious home shoppers. “Your first step is to determine the current market value of homes with the same floor plan in your neighborhood. Then go no higher than the top of that price range,” she says. • Recommend a communitywide open house event. Many real estate agents downplay the value to sellers of open houses, saying they rarely attract serious buyers. Rather, they contend that most who attend open houses are curious neighbors or passersby looking for decorating tips. But Helfant says by encouraging other sellers in the neighborhood to hold open houses the same day, you may increase your potential draw, especially if you’re selling a premium property. She suggests you ask your listing agent to call the other agents representing all the available listings in your neighborhood and try to coordinate your open houses. “It’s a good strategy for everyone in the neighborhood to have open houses at the same time because we’re all
Foreclosure rates up slightly in July for High Point-Greensboro area SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE
Foreclosure rates in High Point-Greensboro have increased for the month of July over the same period last year, according to CoreLogic. According to newly released data from CoreLogic on foreclosures for the High PointGreensboro area, the rate of
foreclosures among outstanding mortgage loans is 1.56 percent for the month of July, an increase of 0.34 percentage points compared to July of 2009 when the rate was 1.22 percent. Foreclosure activity in High Point-Greensboro is lower than the national foreclosure rate which was 3.13 percent for July 2010, representing a 1.57 per-
centage point difference. Also in High Point-Greensboro, the mortgage delinquency rate has increased. According to CoreLogic data for July 2010, 5.81 percent of mortgage loans were 90 days or more delinquent compared to 4.94 percent for the same period last year, representing an increase of 0.87 percentage points.
advertising for traffic. And with more traffic, you have a better chance of drawing in serious buyers,” Helfant says. • Stay true to your selling plans. Understandably, the owners of homes in showcase condition often have mixed feelings about letting go of a property they’ve babied through the years of their tenure. This is especially likely during a buyer’s market. But before letting emotion cause you to back off from your selling plans, Early urges you to look at the big picture of your personal and financial plans to see if it would be in your interest to postpone your sale. “This is especially relevant for those making a job transfer or lifestyle change, like a cross-country move or a move to a larger or more luxurious family home,” he says. Sellers who plan to make a move-up purchase in this market may find it particularly advantageous to sell their current home now in order to buy a fancier one for an excellent price, according to Early. “Maybe you sell for less than you could have a few years ago. But you get an even more sizable discount on the place you’re buying,” he says. TO CONTACT Ellen James Martin, e-mail her at ellenjamesmartin gmail.com.
Mortgage applications rise 9.3% WASHINGTON (AP) – Applications for mortgages to buy homes rose last week to the highest level since May, while overall applications were down slightly. The Mortgage Bankers Association says overall applications fell 0.2 percent from a week earlier, driven by a 2.5 percent decline in applications to refinance home loans. Those taken out to purchase homes, however, rose 9.3 percent to the high-
est level since early May. Rates have been at or near the lowest level in decades since spring as investors have shifted money into safer Treasury bonds. That has lowered their yields, which mortgage rates tend to track. However the weak economy has kept demand for homes dormant. The average rate for a 30year fixed loan dipped to 4.25 percent from 4.38 percent a week earlier.
