Leigh Ann Farmer According to statistics provided by the community college, the last class admitted to the traditional associate degree nursing program had 684 applicants, but only 50 were admitted. Davidson County Community College also had 130 applicants for the licensed practical nursing to associate degree nursing online option, but only 16 were admitted.

“We have a lot of students who may apply one year and not get in and try the next year,” Farmer said. “They keep on. Eventually they may get accepted here or it could be somewhere else.”

“I really just enjoy helping people,” Halpin said. “I think that is the biggest thing for me.”

As a working mother, Lexington’s Mitzi Hayden said location was key on why she chose to pursue a health care program at Davidson County Community College. Hayden, who is in the community college’s associate degree online program, works full time at Piedmont Crossing Retirement Community in Thomasville.

“It was convenient for me because I’m a working mom,” she said. “I work full time and I have

president of the High Point Market Authority. “I’ve got my hopes up that we’re going to see an even better market in October.”

The U.S. Census Bureau reported a 2.7 percent increase in retail and food sales for August, giving officials hope that the retail industry could be climbing out of its summer slump.

“The whole mood of the country is more optimistic than it has been for the last couple of markets,” said Lisa Shankle, market veteran and property manager for Hamilton Properties.

“There is a much more positive attitude with people and a lot less doom and gloom that everyone has been seeing at previous markets.”

Casey said it was too soon to predict attendance numbers for the event, but he said the authority had been hearing from many retailers who had not attended the furniture market several years who are “hungry for new products.”

The annual “Stars Under the Stars” event will kick off the fall market on Saturday night. A Centennial Celebration for the market will be held Sunday night, open to all marketgoers.

Gavin DeGraw will headline the event, and the North Carolina A&T State University Blue and Gold Marching Machine will march through the streets that evening.

“We all know how important this event is to the city,” Casey added. “Anything we can do to welcome market guests is good for all of us.”

It’s a good career path for many

BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

DAVIDSON COUNTY – The ability to help people, the pay and the likelihood of finding a job after graduation are top reasons among Davidson County Community College students on why they chose to pursue an education in health care.

“It’s the health industry,” said Jennifer Brown, a student in the community college’s pharmacy technology program. “With an aging population, there is always a demand. Pharmacy is a good career path for women. It’s one of

those things where we can make a good salary and there are a lot of women in an important leadership role.”

Students such as Brown have helped Davidson County Community College break a record enrollment this year. College officials attribute the growth to more students wanting to pursue jobs in health care.

Vanessa Halpin, a medical lab technology student at the community college, said she had always been interested in health care. She started in the phlebotomy program, but recently began in the program of medical lab technology.

The market will run Oct. 17-22.

DAVIDSON COUNTY – Davidson County Community College officials say layoffs in Davidson County have caused many people to turn their attention to a career in health care.

“There is definitely an increase in the number of students overall who want to pursue the field of health care, whether it’s nursing or pharmacy technology,” said Leigh Ann Farmer, director of nursing at Davidson County Community College. “I think a lot of people see health care as a ticket, so to speak, that will enable them to find a job somewhere – especially, with companies here having layoffs and even shutting down. That has prompted a lot of people to come back.”

College officials have attributed this year’s record enrollment of 3,903 degree-seeking students to more students wanting to go into health care.

In fact, Farmer said that it has became pretty competitive for those trying to get into health care programs.

officer, said Davidson County Community College continues to offer new courses in the health care field.

Starting Oct. 19, the college will offer for the first time a healthcare option for medics or paramedics who wish to become registered nurses.

Davidson County Community College is one of two colleges to receive a competitive federal grant from the U.S. Department of Labor’s Community-Based Job Training program. With free tuition, books and fees until funds are depleted, the grant will allow the college to offer a foursemseter nursing option to the paramedics The community college also offers new programs in histotechnology and cancer information management, Thompson said.

According to Thompson, the cancer information management program is one of only a few in the nation.

“Any person who has cancer has to be tracked from the date of diagnosis to the date of death,” Thompson said. “They study your treatment and what type of cancer you’ve got. You have to have tons of people hired who know about that and know how to work with hospitals and medical centers. It’s a growing field as, unfortunately, cancer grows. We have students from all over the state doing that.”

HIGH POINT – The bustling workers that carry cardboard boxes up and down Main Street and the moving trucks that line the sidewalks are a clear sign of only one thing: the beginning of the fall High Point Market.

Continuing its 100th anniversary celebration this year, the market will run Oct. 17-22, the second time in its history it has opened on a Saturday.

As showrooms begin to fill up with the latest furniture trends for the fall season, market officials are hoping that recent economic indicators signifying the end of a downturn will allow for a successful market.

“We ended up with a pretty decent market in April despite bad economic conditions,” said Brian Casey,

Todd Shore started this year at DCCC because he got laid off as a director at Baptist Children’s Home of North Carolina in Thomasville. He is enrolled in the community college’s massage therapy program, which will take a year to complete.

“It’s a field that I wanted something different to do with my life,” Shore said. “I had always been interested in athletics. I plan to work in sports and orthopedic massage.”

Terri Moore, who already has a bachelors’ degree in equine studies, decided to pursue an associate degree in nursing because the economy was impacting her farm in Reidsville. She hopes to get a job with High Point Regional or Thomasville Medical Center when she graduates.

The building was vacated last year when Linen ‘N Things went out of business.

“Whenever the economy went down like it did, people were worried about putting food on their table and they’re not worried about going to a horse show or buying or selling horses,” Moore said. “That hurt our business a lot. For financial reasons, I decided to go back to school.”

Misty Ahmad, who is enrolled in the license practical nurse program, is completing her studies mostly on the Internet. She said that helps because she had her second child within three weeks of the start of the semester.

Ahmad currently is working at High Point Regional.

“When you have the children and you have the family, you kind of learn to prioritize and put things on a schedule,” Ahmad said. “I’m like the rest of them. We don’t get much sleep between family, jobs and school.” dignasiak@hpe.com | 888-3657

New lottery millionaires seek easier life MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

STANTONSBURG – Regina and Ricky Whitaker wander into the Stantonsburg Friendly Mart every day to buy a lotto ticket hoping to get lucky.

Tuesday, they got more than lucky. They hit the jackpot.

Regina bought a ticket on the way home from Rocky Mount, where she works as a mail clerk for the U.S. Postal Service. When she got home, she scratched off the numbers one by one.

The last number brought feelings of anxiety. The last scratch revealed that she and her husband had won the $1 million prize in North Carolina’s new “$200 million Extravaganza.”

Tickets for the new game went on sale the same day.

“When I first scratched the ticket, I cried and fell on my knees and said, ’Oh, my God!’ I kept looking at the ticket and kept looking at the ticket and everybody

in the house got excited,” she said. “(Ricky) hasn’t been able to sleep since we scratched the ticket.”

The middle-age couple was greeted Friday morning by N.C. Education Lottery officials at the Stantonsburg Friendly Mart, where their names were revealed during a press conference. They were also presented with a ceremonial check, even though they received their first annual check of $34,000 Wednesday in Raleigh at the lottery headquarters, said Pam Walker, communications director for the N.C. Education Lottery.

The Whitakers will receive $50,000 each year for the next 20 years, after paying 25 percent in federal taxes and 7 percent in state taxes. Proceeds from the sale of lottery tickets statewide fund the More at Four program, school construction, class size reduction programs and a college scholarship fund for needy students, Walker said.

School to use grant for scholarships ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

HIGH POINT – The Piedmont School will use a $500,000 matching grant to establish the William R. Kenan Jr. Scholarship Endowment Fund, the school announced this week.

Founded in 1982, Piedmont School is a non-

profit organization providing essential service to children with learning disabilities and/or Attention Deficit (Hyperactivity) Disorder ADHD. The school will use the grant from the William R. Kenan, Jr. Charitable Trust to award annual scholarships to students with learning challenges.

Dorie Sturgill, school executive director, said more parents of special needs children are contacting the school each year.

Currently, the school has 49 students in grades 1 to 8.

“The establishment of this endowment will allow us to assist with the

tuition of many more children who otherwise wouldn’t be able to attend,” Sturgill said.

The Kenan Charitable Trust was established in 1964 by the native North Carolina businessman and philanthropist William Rand Kenan, Jr., to support various causes.

Kenan died in 1965.

The alleged scheme worked this way: Food stamp recipients would get cash from the store in exchange for swiping larger amounts off their electronic cards. The store would then be reimbursed by the U.S. Agriculture Department.

And in some transactions, the government says the store provided informants Viagra, liquor and porn in exchange for swiping about $2,000 off food stamp cards.

The government says fraud at the store topped $130,000 over 21⁄2 years.

The store is closed.

Justice who wrote gun decision is dealer RALEIGH (AP) – The North Carolina Supreme Court justice who wrote a recent decision supporting some convicted felons’ right to own a gun is a federally licensed gun dealer and maker, but legal experts say he did not violate any rules.

The News & Observer of Raleigh reported Saturday that Judge Edward Thomas Brady has earned money from gun sales since 2007. Brady wrote the 5-2 decision in August that a 2004 state law barring convicted felons from having a gun, even in their own home or business, is unconstitutional.

Gun control advocates say Brady should have

recused himself. “I don’t think gun dealers should be deciding the constitutionality of gun laws,” said Dennis Henigan, a vice president at the Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence in Washington.

And a law professor said it seems improper. Gene Nichol at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill said “it sure smells” when a “highly activist opinion is written by a gun dealer and manufacturer.”

But other North Carolina legal experts say there’s no conflict, since the decision applied only to felons whose rights were previously restored, then taken away by the 2004 law.

Former chief justices Burley Mitchell, a Democrat, and Beverly Lake, a Republican, said Brady did not have a financial interest or personal connection to the case, and that the narrow ruling means there won’t be a rush of felons buying guns.

“I’ve got a driver’s license, but I regularly ruled on cases involving automobiles and driver’s rights,” said Mitchell, chief judge from 1995 to 1999. “If a judge starts recusing over connections that remote, you’ll have a judiciary that can dodge every difficult case.”

Brady, who declined interviews, was elected in 2002 as a Republican to an

eight-year term. State judicial races now are nonpartisan.

In August, the high court ruled in the case of Barney Britt of Wake County that the General Assembly went too far when it toughened restrictions on felons owning guns as part of a broad anti-domestic-violence bill.

Britt was convicted of felony drug possession in 1979.

He completed his sentence in 1982, and his right to own a gun was restored five years later. Before 2004, Britt could keep any firearm at his home or business and have rifles and shotguns – but not handguns – elsewhere.

The lack of clean water and electricity have proven to be a leading issue in January’s national elections for Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki.

TEHRAN, Iran – Iran warned Saturday it will enrich uranium to a higher level needed to power a research reactor if talks with the U.N. nuclear watchdog and world powers fail.

Such a step would heighten tensions in the standoff over Iran’s nuclear program.

Obama says he will end ‘don’t ask, don’t tell’ policy WASHINGTON (AP) – President Barack Obama pledged to end the ban on homosexuals serving openly in the military in a speech Saturday, but acknowledged to a cheering crowd that the policy changes he promised on the campaign trail are not coming as quickly as they expected.

“I will end ‘don’t askdon’t tell,’ ” Obama said at the annual dinner of the Human Rights Campaign, a gay civil rights advo-

cacy group. He did not give a timetable for the repeal of the law passed

by Congress in 1993 and signed by President Bill Clinton, who also promised to repeal the ban on homosexuals in the military but was blunted by opposition in the military and Congress.

“We should not be punishing patriotic Americans who have stepped forward to serve the country,” the president said.

WASHINGTON (AP) – Rep. Barney Frank, an openly gay member of Congress, says he’d rather see gay rights supporters lobbying their elected officials than marching in Washington this weekend, calling the demonstration “a waste of time at best.”

Frank said in an interview with The Associated Press he considers such demonstrations to be “an emotional release” that

does little to pressure Congress.

“The only thing they’re going to be putting pressure on is Frank the grass,” the Massachusetts Democrat said Friday. Thousands of gay men and women are expected to gather for today’s National Equality March.

Prosecutors want Polanski appeal dismissed

Hillary Rodham Clinton sent a NEWARK, N.J. (AP) – The nation’s top diplomat has de- video message chiding O’Brien fused the facetious feud between that was featured on Thursday’s Conan O’Brien and the mayor of episode of “The Tonight Show.”

The quote-unquote “feud” beNewark.

LOS ANGELES (AP) – Los Angeles prosecutors have asked a judge to dismiss an appeal filed by Roman Polanski before his recent arrest in Switzerland, saying the issues he presented no longer apply.

Head Deputy District Attorney Polanski Irene Wakabayashi and Deputy District Attorney Phyllis C. Asayama argued in a letter to the California Second District Court of Appeal that the sole business before the court now was whether to hold a hearing without the presence of Polanski, who is challenging extradition to the United States.

They noted that Polanski’s lawyers asked the court to schedule expedited oral arguments on the issue of whether Polanski must be present in a California court for consideration of his appeal, in which he requests dismissal of a 32-year-old case where he pleaded guilty to having unlawful sex with a teenager.

tween the TV host and Mayor Cory Booker began last month when O’Brien joked that Booker’s new health care program consisted of a bus ticket out of

gritty Newark. Booker replied, tongue in cheek, by banning O’Brien from the busy Newark airport. Clinton told them to return to their core duties.

GCS enrollment drops

BY DAVID NIVENS ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

GUILFORD COUNTY – Enrollment in Guilford County Schools on the 20th day was down slightly from last year, district officials reported last week.

More high school students accounted for the growth. All four High Point area high schools gained students.

On Sept. 22, district officials counted 71,464 students. The district had projected a population of 71,079 students, just half of a percentage point off the actual enrollment. However, 385 more students enrolled than expected.

The district uses the

DIVERSITY

–

Students: Guilford County students represent 142 different countries and 150 different languages and dialects.

The top languages spoken in the district after English are Spanish, Vietnamese, Arabic, Urdu and Korean.

Majorities: District students are about 61 percent nonwhite and 39 percent white. The breakdown of the district is 40.4 percent black, 39.1 percent white, 9.2 percent Hispanic, 5.5 percent Asian, 5.3 percent multiracial and 0.5 percent Native American.

20th day attendance count to monitor yearly student enrollment and to begin adjusting staff allocations.

Among High Point-area schools, Union Hill Elementary, which opened in a new building, had 159 more students than last year to lead the gains, followed by

Northwood Elementary at 67 more than expected.

Among elementary schools with a drop in enrollment were Fairview Elementary, down 63 students more than expected; Montlieu Math and Science Academy, down 48; and Parkview Elementary, down 42.

Among middle schools, Ferndale added 32 students more than projected, and Jamestown Middle gained 16, while Southwest Middle lost 3 and Welborn 40.

Among area high schools, T.W. Andrews High gained 64 students more than expected, Central High School, 12, Ragsdale. 8, and Southwest 19.

Last year, 188 more district students were enrolled for a total of 71,652 on the 20th day. The changes mean some students may find their classrooms split into two, while others may go to combined sections, according to district officials.

At the high schools, some

students may experience schedule changes as teacher class loads are adjusted.

Earlier, district officials projected some additional teaching positions to accommodate increases in school enrollment.

School officials said that this year’s projection cannot be compared directly with past counts because of kindergarten changes.

Starting this year, children must turn 5 on or before Aug. 31 to enter kindergarten. Kindergarten enrollment was down by 464 students on the 20th day this year with 4,870 kindergarten students enrolled.

GUILFORD COUNTY – North Carolina has taken strong steps to reduce smoking in public places and the number of smokers, the former leader of a New York City health agency said this week.

Dr. Thomas R. Frieden, former New York City health commissioner, commended health officials attending the Healthy Carolinians Conference in Greensboro. Frieden became director of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on June 8. Health officials statewide are preparing for a smoking ban in restaurants and bars that takes effect Jan. 2.

“You all deserve a huge round of applause for doing that,” Frieden said. “Tobacco kills more than 400,000 people a year and around the world more than 5 million.”

County health departments will enforce the new ban through a complaint process. The law does not ban smoking in private places of employment. After a couple of warnings, a smoker could be fined $50 and a restaurant or bar owner $200 for an infraction. For the last few years, state law has prohibited smoking in most buildings owned or leased by state government, including those on college campuses. Since Sept. 1, it has been illegal to smoke in local government buildings.

State agencies also have used money from a legal settlement with tobacco companies for an anti-smoking campaign aimed at teens. Gov. Beverly Perdue has supported raising state cigarette taxes to reduce smoking.

“Raising the tax is the single most effective thing that can be done to reduce tobacco use,” Frieden said, “and most smokers want to quit.”

Since federal and local cigarette taxes were raised in New York City, the number of smoking adults has dropped from 22 percent to 19.2 percent, Frieden said. With cigarettes costing about $9 per pack, New York City has become one of the most expensive places to smoke.

“Banning smoking in the New York restaurants was very controversial,” Frieden said. “The first six to 12 months could be tough for you.”

Restaurant and bar owners should see guidelines for the state’s new smoking ban by December. The state is expected to open a telephone hotline to advise owners. dnivens@hpe.com | 888-3626

Pumped up Bodybuilders seek big win

BY DAVID NIVENS ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – Matt Leonard is looking for the big win he needs to break into the professional bodybuilding ranks.

Leonard, a 25-year-old Lexington police officer, came to High Point on Saturday to compete in the middle-weight ranks of the 18th annual International Natural Body Building and Fitness competition, the largest, fully drug-tested body building competition on the East Coast. The show was held in High Point for nine straight years but relocated to Winston-Salem last year.

A former high school wrestler, Leonard has been competing in bodybuilding competitions for several years.

“A win here would make me a pro-qualifier to compete for prizes,” Leonard said. “But I do this more for the fun of it and for the experience.”

The event attracted about 50 competitors from five states, including one from California, to High Point Theatre for two shows on Saturday.

SONNY HEDGECOCK | HPE

Lexington police Officer Matt Leonard strikes pose he hopes will win his division in the competition.

Bodybuilders in natural competitions must be drug free for seven years and undergo polygraph testing and urinalysis.

Leonard spends about 20 hours a week in the gym toning his muscles for competition. Having a strong body also is good for police work.

“Bodybuilding is hard work, and you want to get out of it what you put in,” Leonard said. “You should not get credit for anything else.”

The proper diet is also a part of competition conditioning, Leonard said.

“You have to eat the proper things at the proper times to adjust for when

the show will be,” Leonard said. “If I get the pro card, I’ll probably take a year off to work on putting on some size to prepare for larger competitions.”

Despite the training and the travel, Leonard wants to compete for many years.

Professional standing could help.

“I want to do this as long as I can,” he said.

Damian Fisher, partowner of Gold’s Gym at the Palladium Center in High Point, said the High Point show recognizes some of the top natural bodybuilders in the country. Fisher told competitors that participation was down this year.

“The results here have been excellent,” Fisher told competitors during a morning meeting. “I’ll brag about that.”

High Point has attracted two bodybuilding and fitness competitions for several years.

The city also hosts the North Carolina State Body Building, Fitness and Figure Championship, which draws about 1,000 people to the city in the spring.

The High Point Convention and Visitors Bureau estimates that each event can have an economic impact of $50,000, or more, on the city. dnivens@hpe.com | 888-3626

Noted blues musician Abu Talib dies LANCASTER, Calif. (AP) — Bluesman Abu Talib, who recorded and toured with Ray Charles and Little Walter under his given name, Freddy Robinson, has died. He was 70.

His daughter, Linda Chaplin, said Talib died of cancer Thursday at a hospital in Lancaster, about 70 miles north of Los Angeles.

Talib was born Fred Rob-

inson in Memphis, Tenn., and changed his name to Abu Talib in the 1970s when he converted to Islam.

Chaplin said her father first heard the blues when her grandfather took him along to a “juke joint.” He was too young to go in, but he’d watch the musicians through a window. That inspired him to build an instrument out of bailing

wire when he was 9. His former manager, Vernell Jennings, said Talib saved his money and ordered his second guitar from the Sears catalog at age 13.

Talib could play well by ear, and he was always in demand at clubs, Chaplin said. When he moved to Chicago, he had to go to school to learn how to read music.

He played with Ray Charles, Howlin’ Wolf and pianist Monk Higgins and recorded and wrote several songs including “Black Fox,” “At the DriveIn,” “Bluesology” and the blues instrumental, “After Hours.”

Recently, Talib recorded a jingle for Southwest Airlines, and dressed up in a funky suit for the commercial, she said.

“Some of them were Union, and some of them were Southern,” he said.

“And that late in the war a lot of the Southern buttons were Union buttons, because the Confederate buttons didn’t hold up as well.”

The coffin draped in Confederate and Union flags was transported from St. Paul’s Episcopal Church, which served as a barracks and hospital during the conflict, to Rest Haven Cemetery in a horse-drawn carriage accompanied by Civil War re-enactors.

Unknown Civil War soldier reburied in Tennessee FRANKLIN, Tenn.

(AP) – A Civil War soldier whose remains were found in a battlefield grave last spring was reburied Saturday by admirers who knew neither his name nor even what side he fought on.

Among the history buffs paying tribute to him were two old men whose fathers fought on opposing sides in the War Between the States.

“This soldier represents all of the soldiers, the thousands that were lost and are still buried across the South,” said Robin Hood, chairman of the Franklin Battlefield Task Force that organized the event.

It’s unknown which side the soldier fought on when he was among the nearly 2,000 killed in the 1864 Battle of Franklin. Construction workers happened upon the anonymous soldier’s shallow grave in May. Military buttons found with the remains were

columns,” Hood said. “So it’s fitting.” The services were attended by two elderly men whose fathers served in the Civil War. Harold Becker’s father fought for the Union in the Battle of Franklin.

“It was his first battle after he joined up in 1864,” said Becker, 91, of Rockford, Mich. “And after the battle, he developed measles and he spent 18 days in a hospital.”

Becker’s father, Charles Conrad Becker, served in the 128th Indiana Infantry, and later was part of Gen. William Tecumseh Sherman’s March to the Sea. James Brown, 97, vented some mock indignation upon hearing the firebrand general’s name.

“You mentioned about Sherman – I should shoot you!” joked Brown, whose father served in the 8th Georgia Infantry.

“Sherman was a thorn in the side of everybody in the South.”

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a breeze Man pieces together hand-held fans for seniors ROCKY MOUNT (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Cecil McClainâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s homemade fans are bringing smiles and cool breezes to seniors throughout Rocky Mount.

McClain, a 70-year-old disabled veteran who lives at Covenant Homes retirement community, decided one day to piece together a hand-held fan by gluing a paint stick into a cardboard box.

He said heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s had a lot of time to think lately, and the idea just popped in his mind. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had seven strokes and a malignant tumor taken out of my head in the last 11 years,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sitting down, little things come to mind.â&#x20AC;?

To make the fan, he opens the box and squirts lines of glue on the cardboard. He then lays down the paint stick and flattens the fan with a telephone book for several hours.

The Rocky Mount Telegram reported that he decided to give away his first batch of 25 fans to his neighbors at Covenant Homes.

He brought them to the front office for distribution.

Once residents knew they were free, the fans went fast. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I told (front office employees) the next day that if they would bring me boxes like this, I will make everybody out here one,â&#x20AC;? McClain said.

McClain hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t stopped since. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s made more than 500 fans and has been distributing them to senior-living centers throughout Rocky Mount, earning the moniker â&#x20AC;&#x153;the fan man.â&#x20AC;?

McClain said he feels joy seeing peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s faces light up when they use the fans. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I really enjoy doing it. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been working with my hands all my life,â&#x20AC;? said McClain, a

She said McClainâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s eyes watered up when he described the big smile he brought to one overheated seniorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s face after giving her a fan. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just a great man,â&#x20AC;?

Cutler said of McClain. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I could tell it was something he really loves to do. It was apparent.â&#x20AC;?

Frances Howell, a Covenant Homes resident who also is the membership chairman of the American Legion Aux-

iliary Post 58, said that organization recently honored McClain for his efforts with a $50 Food Lion gift certificate. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s doing something charitable even though he himself is disabled,â&#x20AC;? she said. Howell uses one of his fans. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I love it. It is sturdy.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s heavy enough to blow a breeze,â&#x20AC;? she said.

McClain recently distributed 50 fans to residents at Hunter Hill Senior Village.

Kawanna Cox, who

works for the center, said the employees and residents love the fans. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They give out good air,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had ours for about a month. They are still dependable.â&#x20AC;?

She said front-desk employees distributed McClainâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fans to residents. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have residents riding around every day who are still using them,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I must admit, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got

one. I love it. I like the colors.â&#x20AC;?

She praised McClain. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get many people whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll help out or give up their time like he has,â&#x20AC;? she said.

McClain, a veteran who has served tours of duty in Vietnam and Lebanon, said he has no plans to stop making the fans.

McClain said a senior recently asked him how much longer he planned to continue his work.

He replied: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Until we run out of old folks.â&#x20AC;?

Attorney found guilty of trying to hide money RALEIGH (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; A North Carolina attorney has been convicted of trying to hide money from the IRS by divvying up large cash deposits into amounts that avoided federal alerts.

Multiple media outlets report defense attorney Johnny Gaskins was found

guilty Friday of dividing $355,000 into deposits of less than $10,000 each, visiting multiple bank tellers at different branches.

Banks must report deposits greater than $10,000.

Gaskins is free until sentencing in February.

The jury decided Gas-

kins can keep the money, earned between 2001 and 2006, because he reported the payments on tax forms and paid taxes on them.

Gaskins said he kept cash in a safe in his home, but after clients were robbed and killed in 2005, he feared for his safety.

Nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pupils find few black men to call â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Misterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; CHEYNEY, Pa. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Lenny Macklin made it to 10th grade before having a teacher who looked like him â&#x20AC;&#x201C; an African-American male. Gregory Georges graduated from high school without ever being taught by a black man.

Only about 2 percent of teachers nationwide are African-American men. But experts say that needs to change if educators expect to reduce minority achievement gaps and dropout rates.

Macklin, now an 18year-old college student, said he understands the circle that keeps many of his peers out of the classroom professionally.

Macklin and Georges, both sophomores at historically black Cheyney University near Philadelphia, are trying to fulfill that need through the Call Me MISTER teaching program. MISTER is both an acronym â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Mentors Instructing Students Toward Effective Role Models â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and a reference to the 1967 film â&#x20AC;&#x153;In the Heat of the Night.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;If we can recruit linebackers, point guards and track stars, we can recruit third-grade teachers,â&#x20AC;? said Roy Jones, the programâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s national executive director.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is a matter of priority.â&#x20AC;?

Jones directs the program from Clemson University in South Carolina, where it began in 2000. About 50 program graduates are teaching in South Carolina schools, representing a 25 percent increase in the number of black male instructors statewide, Jones said.

Keith Wilkes, who works in a predominantly white school in Westminster, S.C., said he believes children of all races need male role models. Wilkes, 50, sees himself as an African-American giving back to the community where he grew up. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a noble cause,â&#x20AC;? Wilkes said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is not just something you do as a job. This is a lifestyle. You have to believe in what youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re doing.â&#x20AC;?

Hayward Jean, 27, has found teaching equally inspiring, though not without its challenges. Now in a lowincome district in Orangeburg, S.C., Jean said he was caught off guard by the initially chilly reception from boys in his class. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Actually, a lot of them were a little bit bitter toward me,â&#x20AC;? Jean AP said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been breaking those walls down, and Hayward Jean, 27, (center) works with his fourth-grade single gender students during a math lesson on patterns thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been helping them at Marshall Elementary School in Orangeburg, S.

Oil price depends on what the Saudi’s want Tim Boyles makes some very good points in his letter (Oct. 7, “Lower oil, gas prices will help economic recovery”). Lower gasoline prices would result in people having more money in their pockets to spend on other items.

Substantially lower heating costs predicted this winter may translate to a better season for retailers this holiday season as more folks will be able to shift some of their spending to other areas.

Boyles would like to see gasoline prices in the $1.50 per gallon range, as would you and I. But realistically, this is probably not going to happen. I’m not an economic expert by far, but I don’t believe the ordinary market forces that usually drive the prices of goods and services, such as supply and demand, apply to the oil market. I will explain my conclusion.

Earlier this year, in response to a drop in demand, the price of oil dropped into the $50 per barrel range with a corresponding drop in gasoline. Gasoline prices dropped into the $1.70 per gallon range, close to the prices in 2000.

Then, in response to this drop, the Saudi oil minister made the statement that “to be fair to oil producers and consumers, a barrel of oil should cost $70.” Shortly afterward, the price of oil per barrel began steadily rising until it reached the $70 range. None of the economic indicators I’ve seen over that same time frame supported a $20 increase in the price

of oil per barrel. And for the past several months, the price of oil has fluctuated between $65 to $75 per barrel, always staying close to the suggested Saudi goal.

Nuclear power gets a booster

W

hen Graham Edwards, new head of ElectriCities, the regional organization of public power providers such as the city of High Point, visited here Wednesday, he pledged that ElectriCities would continue providing affordable, reliable energy to its municipal customers.

And he sees that being accomplished in a “green energy” sort of way. But don’t look for Edwards to be pushing ElectriCities toward investing lots of cash anytime soon in alternative energy generation equipment such as wind-powered turbines.

While speaking during several gatherings, Edwards noted the poor performance of wind energy generators experienced at a previous organization he worked for in the Midwest. Wind turbines with a capacity of producing 3,000 megawatts of electricity generated only 23 megawatts in actuality, he said.

But Edwards aims for ElectriCities to keep lowering its carbon footprint, and he sees nuclear power as how to accomplish that in the future. In fact, cities with power systems in western North Carolina such as High Point already are doing that. The electricity city of High Point customers use is generated at Duke Energy’s Catawba nuclear plant (it’s carbon footprint free). Much of the electricity municipalities in eastern North Carolina sell is generated by coal burning power plants, so there’s work to be done there.

From these initial meetings, Edwards sounds like a big advocate of nuclear power – which is fine with us. He, as well as we, recognize the need for safe, secure disposal sites and procedures. And we understand there are some members of the public unalterably opposed to nuclear generation of electricity.

But nearly 9 percent of the world’s carbon emissions are attributed to non-nuclear electricity generating plants across the United States. Nuclear power is the best, most immediate method for producing “green energy” and lowering that percentage.

not working through no fault of their own, are not fully addressed in any health care reform bill.

If nothing is done to adjust the age rating and subsidies based on poverty level, I still will not be able to get health coverage.

I agree with AARP that the age rating should be limited to 2-1 and both higher premiums due to age and cost sharing up to 400 percent of poverty should be in any bill that is passed. It’d also be good to define a benefit package to cover the needs of this age group, while limiting out-of-pocket costs.

We’ve put in 30 to 50 years of hard work, saved our money, now have nothing to show for it while banks, automakers and others get extra money. Is this truly the American way?

CINDY DUNNE Walnut Cove

As an employee of a private, notfor-profit agency, I know the damage being done by the high cost of health care. I pay 25 percent of the premium for a very basic policy.

If I had a costly medical event, I would be on the street, unable to pay back the high cost of the copay for medical care. I feel that our system works better for insurance companies than it does for the American people.

I have several pre-existing conditions that would limit my ability to purchase competitive coverage. If I lose my job or my insurance, I truly would be at the mercy of “the system,” and I would lose.

Let’s get behind the comprehensive health care policy proposed

by President Obama. Let’s push for a government sponsored alternative to profit-minded, private health care.

Transformation in the news industry is ongoing

A

s you might suspect, given the state of the general economy and the situations in which the newspaper industry finds itself these days, I’ve been reading a variety of viewpoints on newspapers and Web sites.

I’m discovering that the people who make the “universe-altering” decisions in this industry finally are coming around to my way of thinking – what I began thinking about 15 years ago when the Internet began to grab more and more attention. The headline for an article published by American Press Institute in September read, “Most newspapers now actively considering paid access options for Web content” followed by a drop-head reading, “Wide variety of approaches being considered.”

It’s about time!

I hope it’s not too late. I’ve wondered ever since newspaper companies began uploading much if not all of the news (features, sports, etc.,) that they paid for their staffs of journalists to produce why they didn’t charge for it from Day 1. I’ve kept asking, “Why give away the store?” After 15 years, I still haven’t received a plausible answer.

The story said “ITZBelden, in conjunction with API” launched a survey in August, inviting 1,350 U.S. and 30 Canadian newspapers to participate. A cross-section of newspapers – “in large, mid-size, small and very small markets” were among early respondents, the story noted.

Among the findings: • 90 percent currently do not charge for content.

• Only 3 percent currently have a paid-only site.

• Nearly 25 percent expect to implement a paid strategy in the next six months.

Responses indicate the industry “is actively engaged in a conversation about many new directions” to monetize content and, when given 15 different options on which pay models to implement, respondents indicated they were seriously considering 11 of them.”

The report said “Companies are talking about paid content strategies as diverse as new partnerships with niche players, content delivery on new devices, packaging content for the greatest appeal to certain audiences, and creating new revenue platforms for which content is a key part.”

Just five days ago, Tom Curley, The Associated Press’ chief executive, told folks at the Hong Kong Foreign Correspondents’ Club that, according to a report by AP business writer Jeremiah Marquez, “the AP and the news industry hope to capitalize on the intensifying battle between Microsoft Corp.

and Google Inc. as those companies vie to expand their online audiences.” Marquez noted that AP’s contract with Google expires at the end of this year and with Microsoft next year.

Curley reportedly “echoed complaints of many news comOPINION panies that contend sites such as Google have reaped a fortune Tom off their articles, photos and Blount video without fairly compen■■■ sating news organizations that produce the material.”

Marquez’ report said AP “is considering whether to sell news stories to some online customers exclusively for a certain period, perhaps half an hour.” AP licenses its stories and photographs to many Internet search engines and “its work is used by hundreds of Web sites owned by newspapers and broadcasters,” who currently all get the material at the same time.

Because the AP is a cooperative, much of the news, features, sports, business, etc., news it produces and distributes every hour of every day is produced by its members. I’ll remind you that, even with bloggers running rampant, that the vast majority of the credible news that you find on the Internet comes from newspapers.

Most newspapers aren’t sitting still. Their staffs aren’t sulking because some folks are saying the industry is as dead as the dinosaurs.

Many of them see opportunities rather than insurmountable challenges and are transforming what not so long ago was a newspaper company into multimedia information source. And many of them are in the process of following advice given in 2004 by longtime online news consultant Vin Crosbie: 1. Use new technologies to match the newspapers existing cornucopia of content to satisfy each individual reader’s unique mix of interests.

2. Understand that neither newsprint nor the Web nor digital editions nor wireless is the answer. True convergence of all of those into a single unitary product is not only necessary but likely by 2014.

3. Focus less on the industry’s ability to produce content and more on its unique service of delivering a complete package of content, a change that requires newsrooms and corporations to go beyond traditional definitions of “news” or “syndicated sources.”

What an exciting future!

Small group makes big noise in Wake Fight to win, or I go home

I

was in the Navy during the lead-up to the first Gulf War. There was a lot of concern on my ship about Iraq’s “million man army.”

At the time, Iraq had the world’s 4th largest army, with the ability to mobilize somewhere around 2 million men.

That’s enough to get anyone’s attention, and it would’ve been foolish not to think that America was going to be in for a tough fight. But as we soon found out, it only took a few weeks for U.S. airpower to turn Saddam’s million man army into a group of starving individuals who were surrendering by the thousands.

Today we’re hearing people say that history proves Afghan militias can’t be beat on their own turf. It would be foolish to underestimate the enemy in Afghanistan, but we shouldn’t underestimate the capabilities of the U.S. military either.

America can win in Afghanistan, but only if we have a strong will to win.

I haven’t written much about OPINION the wars in Afghanistan or Mike Iraq since PresiHughes dent Obama has ■■■ been in office. I wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt, thinking that maybe he’d do the right thing, and until recently, it seemed like he was doing the right thing. He didn’t abandon Iraq and he seemed to be supporting the war in Afghanistan. But after recent news reports, I have to wonder if he’s even been paying attention.

Obama had only spoken once with Gen. Stanley McChrystal during the first 70 days of the general’s command in Afghanistan. When McChrystal openly requested more troops and said that we’d fail without them, Obama said it was time to review the strategy, but didn’t bother to tell anyone when he’d have an answer.

In March of this year, Obama said, “We are in Afghanistan to confront a common enemy that threatens the United States.” After McChrystal’s request, Obama said that his decision will not be shaped by politics, yet that’s exactly what has happened. Obama’s weakness has been exposed because his liberal base doesn’t want to send troops anywhere for any reason.

America beat the world’s 4th largest army in 1991 through the use of overwhelming force which was enabled by the world’s best training and technology. Saddam and many other dictators learned that it was foolish to place an army out in the middle of a desert. Wars are now fought in school yards, hospitals, places of worship and crowded city markets.

McChrystal knows that minimizing civilian casualties is key to winning in Afghanistan. Liberals should embrace this idea. McChrystal says he needs 40,000 more troops to do this effectively. I say Obama has two choices: send 40,000 more troops right now or get our forces out of Afghanistan.

Does Obama have the wisdom and courage to put our military ahead of liberal politics? American forces should not be wasted on a war that our president does not have the will to win. If we’re going to stay in Afghanistan, Obama needs to send a clear message, in words and especially in action, that we’re there to win.

As of this writing, Obama has failed to do so.

’ve been wondering what it was like the day after “the shot heard round the world.” Did the residents of Massachusetts know they had been witness to the start of a revolution that would change the power structure of a continent or did they just think it a singular event of violence?

Would it be too farfetched to then question whether the vote last week for the Wake County School Board was the beginning of a voter revolution in our state or simply the repudiation of current school policies and leaders?

The American Revolution was the result of a disgruntled people who banded together and, through their passion, changed history. Present day polling data indicates unprecedented levels of distrust and unhappiness within our state. It’s more than a lousy economy that has people disgruntled. They are tired of repeated corruption and ethics

violations, yo-yo cycles of government budget expansions and contractions and of leadership full of yesterday’s solutions to today’s MY SPIN problems.

Making matters Tom worse, taxes and Campbell other expenses ■■■ are increasing at the same time incomes are static, declining or have vanished. There is a growing unrest in this state.

What makes the election in Wake noteworthy is that school board members and administrators appear to have forgotten two essential concepts of our nation. Our founders wanted to guarantee we never again had a government that was unresponsive or unaccountable, so all public power was given subject to the “consent of the governed.”

When public officials aren’t

responsive, act arrogantly or don’t convince citizens of the rightness of their positions, the people withdraw their consent through their votes, and that was exactly what happened Tuesday.

North Carolina’s highest court has affirmed the purpose of public education the guarantee for every child to a “sound basic education.” The Wake election turned because a small, passionate group of citizens said the school board and administrators were more focused on socioeconomic diversity than on emphasizing quality education. Opponents of current policies said frequent student school reassignments and lengthy school bus rides were evidence that school leaders desired balance in each school more than the first mandate for quality education. Most accept the value of diversity, but emphasize that isn’t the No. 1 priority.

To be sure, the vote Tuesday

was small. About 10 percent of voters showed up, reflective of the turnout throughout the state. But this is exactly the point. A small group of disgruntled, passionate citizens got out their supporters and carried the election. We cannot help but wonder if this might be an indicator of what might occur in next year’s U.S. Senate and legislative races.

No doubt British leaders thought the skirmish in Concord was insignificant.

Perhaps leaders throughout North Carolina think the same about Tuesday’s Wake School Board election. Only time will tell whether this was a singular instance of a small group of disgruntled citizens or “the vote heard round the state.”

At the U.N. Obama’s ‘Hope Doctrine’ in foreign affairs risks America’s security

O

ver the past month, President Obama continued to naively put America’s security at grave risk. At the United Nations General Assembly meeting in September, Obama unintentionally announced his “Hope Doctrine” to promote world peace. In “our efforts to promote peace, the most powerful weapon in our arsenal is the hope of human beings,” he said.

This statement is the naïve keystone of his Opinion foreign policy of apology and Armstrong appeasement.

Williams It explains his implicit willingness to impose unilateral nuclear disarmament on the U.S., his ambivalence on deploying additional troops in Afghanistan, his dismantling the Eastern European missile defense shield and his toothless pursuit of nuclear containment in Iran without credible threats of sanctions or military action. What is more amazing is that his kitchen cabinet sits idly by and allows him to continue this march toward destroying the military supremacy of the lone superpower in the world.

At the U.N. meeting, President Obama continued his mission of apologizing to the world for America’s past foreign policy and replacing it with a policy of appeasement.

----

The president told the assembly how his administration is “responsibly” ending the war in Iraq. (Not winning the war!) He proudly trumped his administration’s pursuit of reductions in nuclear warheads with Russia. (Although the Russians have not indicated whether they will meaningfully participate.)

The next day, Obama, the first American president to chair a meeting of the U.N. Security Council, presided over the passage of a toothless nuclear nonproliferation resolution. The Iranian pursuit of nuclear weapons was the immediate target of this resolution. However, in order to get the resolution passed, Obama acknowledged that the U.S. was part of the nuclear proliferation problem and would have to limit its arsenal.

While the resolution does not have any teeth in it, Obama announced his willingness to substantially disarm the U.S.

without getting any specified concessions.

At the end of his U.N. speeches, Obama basked in the applause and adulation of those who can’t wait for him to weaken America’s military and foreign policy. Nations without nuclear arms or ambitions praised Obama’s role in the Security Council’s nonproliferation resolution and his implicit willingness to impose unilateral nuclear disarmament on the U.S. Not surprisingly, shortly after the applause stopped, Iran disclosed that it had a second secret nuclear facility and test-fired two missiles. Apparently, Obama knew about this secret facility for some time.

Incredibly, he chose to ignore its existence at the Security Council meeting so he could get a toothless resolution passed to the adulation of the U.N. diplomatic corp.

Israel, America’s closest ally in the Middle East, did

not even show up for the U.N. addresses. At an earlier session, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, told the General Assembly that “the most urgent challenge facing this body is to prevent the tyrants of Tehran from acquiring nuclear weapons. Are the member states of the United Nations up to that challenge?”

Clearly, Israel is. It has no choice if it wants to continue to exist. It is all but certain that Israel is preparing to take out Iran’s nuclear facilities on its own before Iran can develop nuclear weapons. The only question is how and when.

Israel does not buy into the “Hope Doctrine” because their very existence is at stake.

Unfortunately, Obama has forgotten, if he ever knew, that foreign policy is not charity policy. Our president is playing a vicious game of international relations in which the players don’t all play by the rules. It takes an incredibly savvy man to play in a game where smoke and mirrors dominate. In the end, the weak and unarmed man loses. The primary role of the President of the United States is to put America first and defend it against all enemies. The dismantling of our national security has no place in protecting the American people.

Eight months is not enough stimulus

BY GARY PARKER

T

here has been a lot of questioning about the impact of the stimulus (and remember, Bush began the “bailout” efforts with a $750 billion stimulus in 2008 prior to Obama). So, these efforts to save the economy from going over the cliff were truly bipartisan in the beginning.

But now in an effort to make political gains in the upcoming mid-term elections, some are saying the stimulus is a failure, and we’re headed toward financial disaster. Well, we were headed toward disaster before the stimulus saved us!

How soon we forget. Lehman Brothers failed; Bears/Stearns, Merrill/Lynch, AIG … all failed. Remember the Federal Reserve and treasury secretary running back and forth to Congress?

We didn’t get into this downfall of the economy overnight (it’s been several years of greed and neglectful oversight

GUEST COLUMN

---

since the ill-fated deregulation of the banking industry), and we’re not getting out of it overnight either. Any mammoth and complicated effort like this (and the Obama stimulus should have been larger than $800 billion so that it could have been more effective in bringing back the economy) will take time before we see its true effects, and we can decide if it was a success or failure.

What’s a reasonable time period? I don’t know for sure, but I’m fairly certain it’s a lot more than eight months.

There also has been much criticism of the amount of money adding to the national debt. But in terms of wise fiscal policy, that’s the way it should work. When there’s a major recession like now, or depression as there was in the 1930s, government must spend money to stimulate the

economy, creating budget deficits in the process.

Naturally, that adds to the debt and creates concern. But the fact is that it must be done or the economy will get worse, and to do very little stimulus or to do nothing at all would be grossly negligent.

The way national fiscal policy works in times of recession is that you spend until the economy improves even if it creates deficits, and then when the economy does get better you can pay off the debt that was created. Now granted, usually the economy doesn’t sink this far, but that just makes it all the more important to support it with aggressive government intervention.

With a strong American economy in the near-term years, that debt can be paid back much as Clinton paid off the national debt created

by Reagan and Bush (albeit with the help of the Dotcom revolution and the skyrocketing stock market), thereby not

leaving it to our children, especially if Congress has the courage to make future budgets on a pay as you go basis.

The alternative to the stimulus efforts of both parties was long-term depression like the 1930s. And paying back our growing debt can be done through a recovered and vibrant American economy that any optimistic-thinking economist should believe in.

We must have faith in our ability to learn from history (the Great Depression, and let’s please not repeat 1937’s pullback from those stimulus efforts) and in the recuperative powers of a re-directed American economy (green energy prospects are unlimited, automobile manufacturing of more competitive vehicles, and our seemingly endless great advances in technology) that can pay off national debt before our children would have to deal with it.

The North Carolina Coastal Reserve program held a hearing in Wilmington to hear from the public about how to pro-

Hope Sutton with the program says people have enjoyed walking, kayaking, surfing and sunbathing at the island, but in recent years, the number of visitors has increased dramatically.

Last chance Thursday is final, yes final, tax deadline NEW YORK (AP) — It may have seemed like you had all the time in the world to file your tax return after you got that six-month extension last April. But if you still haven’t sent it in, there’s no more stalling.

Thursday is the final deadline — and that does mean final — for filing in your 2008 return.

“This is it, do or die,”

said Bob Meighan, an accountant and vice president of Intuit Inc.’s TurboTax division. The only people who can skip the deadline are members of the military serving in combat zones and people affected by recent natural disasters.

The Internal Revenue Service said nearly 11 million people filed for extensions in the 2008 tax sea-

son. If you’re one of those, and you don’t file by Oct. 15, you’ll start racking up penalties with the IRS right away.

It’s a bigger mistake to skip filing than to file without paying money you owe, said Tom Ochsenschlager, vice president of tax at the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.

Sending in your return without payment will save you late filing penalties — which can be up to 25 percent. And to figure out how much you owe, the IRS will file a substitute return for you, without

claiming the deductions and credits you might be eligible for.

If you owe less than $25,000 and have no outstanding issues with the IRS, you may be able to pay in an installment plan. If you owe more, you’ll have to work out an agreement. You’ll still pay some penalties and interest, but the penalties are lower than those for not filing.

“The bottom line is file, even if you can’t pay,” Ochsenschlager said.

The rules for filing are the same as they are in

TAX TIPS

April. The same deductions and credits that were available to taxpayers then — including the earned income tax credit and the first time homebuyer credit— can be claimed on a late return.

You can mail in a paper return or you can file electronically. The IRS’s Free File program, which offers basic online tax preparation at no cost to people who earned $56,000 or less in 2008, is available until Thursday, and can be accessed through the agency’s Web site at www.irs. gov.

Gift shop lures market traffic

BY PAM HAYNES ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT - Amid the High Point Market’s hustle and bustle in the downtown area, a small business opens its doors each market to the international visitors walking the streets.

The store doesn’t sell items that are furniturerelated, but its owners say it offers specialized products that shoppers may not be able to find anywhere else.

Gifts Like Nothing Else opens several days before each High Point Market with an inventory of jewelry, handbags and pottery from North Carolinian artists, as well as a monogramming service.

If you haven’t sent in your return yet, here are some things to keep in mind: • Deductions.

Don’t take the standard deduction automatically, especially if you own a home or live in a state or city that collects income tax. You can get a quick idea if you are better off itemizing by adding up your mortgage interest, real estate taxes and the local taxes withheld listed on your W-2. If they come to more than the standard deduction, it’s worth itemizing.

• Tax credits. You might be able to claim tax credits you missed out on in the past if your income declined in 2008. Credits like the earned income tax credit, child care credit and the Hope and Lifetime Learning education credits are all income-based, so check to see if you’re eligible.

Unlike itemized deductions, credits are subtracted from any taxes you owe dollar for dollar.

• Homebuyer tax credit. First time homebuyers who bought since April 2008 may be able to claim a credit. For homes purchased before Dec. 31, 2008, buyers can claim 10 percent of the purchase price, up to $7,500. This credit must be repaid in 15 equal installments over 15 years, beginning with the 2010 tax year.

A larger credit, up to $8,000, can be claimed on your 2008 taxes for homes purchased this year, and that credit does not have to be repaid.

Both credits are reduced for highincome earners.

• Medical costs.

If you spent more than 7.5 percent of your adjusted gross income on medical care, that’s deductible. The costs didn’t have to come all at once, just add up to that threshold.

• Charitable deductions. You can’t claim donations to charity unless you have receipts to back up the claim — there’s no more estimating the cash you dropped in the collection plate.

You can’t claim political donations.

Sluggish economy stunts telecommunications growth GENEVA (AP) – The telecommunications industry has escaped the worst of the global economic downturn but a lack of funding is slowing the rollout of next-generation mobile networks, a recent U.N. report said.

Governments should consider investing some of their stimulus funds in cell phone networks, fiber-optic connections and broadband infrastructure

as part of an effort to boost the wider economy, the International Telecommunication Union said in a 90-page report.

The financial crisis has “cut directly across many operators’ investment plans to upgrade existing networks and roll out various nextgeneration networks,” the ITU said.

The report was published at the start of a

weeklong telecoms industry event, ITU World, hosted by the ITU in Geneva. Many of the world’s major telecoms companies – including Nortel, Ericsson and Siemens – are staying away from this year’s event amid tightened travel and exhibition budgets.

Telecoms companies are also struggling with the long-running problem of regulatory

uncertainty because governments are slow to approve technical innovations for widespread use. At a time of funding shortages, this means companies have become even more cautious about investing in new technology such as WiMax, the report said.

WiMax – a type of highspeed mobile broadband sometimes called 4G – is already available in North

America and parts of Asia, but competition for scarce radio bandwidth has so far kept it from being introduced widely in Europe.

European operators are also wary of allowing WiMax to eat into their growing revenues from data services before the considerable investments they made in the previous technology – 3G – have been recouped, said Sean

Serafin, a spokesman for chipmaker Intel, which is trying to push WiMax technology.

On the positive side, over two-thirds of governments have approved or tolerate the use of voiceover-IP technology, which allows calls to be made over the Internet and has drastically cut into the revenue streams of some state-owned monopolists, ITU said.

‘National Americans’ use altered work styles

BY MILDRED L. CULP WORKWISE FEATURES

This column was inspired by an MSNBC.com article about Janet Morgan, a 63-year-old woman born in California who raised her children in Nevada and moved to Ohio for a college degree. She job hunted extensively and systematically around the country before she found a job in an unexpected place – North Dakota.

“National Americans” blend the best of their workplaces in more than one part of the country. They stand out in organizations built almost exclusively on local talent. At a time when Americans have begun moving to new jobs again, it’s important to know how their new experiences will change them.

Susan Berg, founder of Choose on Purpose Network in Doylestown, Pa., has worked in change management for 20 years. Born in Cincinnati, she worked at Unisys on both coasts and in Texas as a teacher. Berg transfers her broad perspective to twentysomethings through the transitions required to launch and develop their careers. Her clients are Fortune 500 companies, the government, nonprofits and institutions of higher education.

Born in New Rochelle, N.Y., Terry Starr, co-founder of MyWorkButterfly L.L.C., a social network for mothers in West Parsippany, N.J., spent seven years in recruitment market-

SPECIAL | WORKWISE FEATURES

Doyleston, Pa.’s Susan Berg, founder of Choose on Purpose Network, speaks with Michael Ng about differences in work styles. He is founding partner of Microguard Health of New Hope, Pa. ing and employee communications in New York City before moving to Los Angeles for two years to increase the size of a newer operation.

Starr found herself at odds with people in Los Angeles: “Trying to get a decision made was nearly impossible, because the LA perspective is diametrically opposed to the East Coast work culture,” she says. “People would sit back, analyze and consider options before making decisions.” When she returned, she discovered that she’d changed to

“something in between that, taking a moment to consider that possibly the way we’ve been doing something isn’t necessarily perhaps the best way to do something... a huge learning lesson.” She also brought back an awareness and appreciation of work/life harmony, which was quite different from her previous drive to “get the job done and be productive.”

While working in California, Berg had another experience, becoming attuned to prejudices against areas of the country. Peo-

ple in that state are labeled “nutty,” she says, while East Coasters are considered “uptight and neurotic.” Because of the touch of a Texas twang in her accent, some people there assumed she was from Texas and asked about guns in the back of her truck. She kept hearing herself tell people that the basics of human nature are constant, wherever you live.

ductive. “Sometimes a contrarian point of view is more exciting and gives everyone a chance to talk about biases we have against or around the subcultures in our own country,” she notes. “It makes me better for my work. I don’t jump to a trite answer to what’s wrong or why we’re struggling. I look deeper.”

She considers herself more empathetic and less parochial because of her background.

Starr graduated from sticking out like a sore thumb in California to being teased, even ridiculed, in the East about her slower rate of speech. While Berg told people on the West Coast that people are people, Starr finds herself contradicting the notion that there’s only one way to do things – quickly, like in the East.

The fact that she’s more analytical has contributed to better decision-making, she maintains, halfway between rapidity and passivity. When she returned to the East, she was briefly at odds with her environment, feeling anxious after “living in an idyllic environment,” she observes.

Driving to work was very different from riding the subway and walking in crowds.

National Americans may find that they’re very different when they move to other regions. Then they bring the best of various work styles back.

Memorials A tribute to our Beautiful Sister

When God Called her Home, June 3, 2009

A Sister is one who reaches for your hand and touches your heart.

Sisters are for sharing laughter and memories.

We miss your witty ways and your nice compliments.

You are a beautiful person.

Not a day goes by you aren’t remembered.

God saw you getting tired, He knew you needed rest.

He put his arms around you and whispered “Come to Me.’’ His Garden must be beautiful, for he only takes the best.

It broke our hearts to lose you, but you did not go alone, For part of us went with you the day God called you home.

You’re in the Arms of an Angel now.

Love Your Sisters!

Panthers face Redskins CHARLOTTE (AP) – At this rate you’d expect the Redskins’ next opponent will be a directional school, or maybe even a Championship Subdivision team.

In a stretch that would make even cupcake-collecting college coaches blush, Washington (2-2) visits Carolina (0-3) today set to become the first NFL team in 55 years to play a winless teams in each of the first five weeks of the season.

Granted, the opener was a loss to the still unbeaten New York Giants. Since then the Redskins eked past struggling St. Louis, became the first team in 20 games to lose to Detroit and barely edged woeful Tampa Bay. According to STATS LLC, the last team to face five winless opponents in a row was the 1954 Giants. No team has faced six straight teams without a victory, and 0-4 Kansas City sparkles on the schedule next week like a homecoming opponent.

“Oh, wow,” Redskins running back and captain Rock Cartwright said when told of matching the 55-yearold mark. “I mean, if that’s the case, then we probably should be 4-0. But that’s not the case.”

Their offense is struggling so much against the weak competition that longtime assistant Sherman Lewis was brought in this week to be an “extra set of eyes.”

Team officials downplayed talk that’s a bad sign for embattled coach Jim Zorn, whose task is to keep desperate Carolina winless.

“The hardest teams to beat are the ones that are searching for a win right now,” Redskins quarterback Jason Campbell said. “The reason for it is because teams feel like they are back against a wall and they tend to play with a lot more urgency and a lot harder.”

The Panthers are in that position. They’ve gone from NFC South champions to disarray thanks to injuries, a disappointing defense and Jake Delhomme’s bushel of turnovers.

They had a bye last weekend and were forced to ponder the statistic that only three teams since 1990 have made the playoffs after starting 0-3.

Duke quarterback Thaddeus Lewis (9) and teammate Abraham Kromah (8) celebrate with Desmond Scott (center) following their 49-28 win over N.C. State in Raleigh on Saturday. It was the Blue Devils’ first road win in six years.

Duke snaps road jinx Lewis shreds Wolfpack defense for 459 yards, 5 TDs through air RALEIGH (AP) — Thad Lewis threw for career-highs of 459 yards and five touchdowns in a dazzling one-man show to help Duke beat North Carolina State 49-28 on Saturday.

Lewis also ran for a score for the Blue Devils (3-3, 1-1 Atlantic Coast Conference), who snapped an 11game losing streak to their instate rival and earned their first road league win in almost six years.

Donovan Varner added 154 yards receiving while Conner Vernon had 10 catches and was one of five different players to catch a TD pass from Lewis.

But on this day, everything started with Lewis, a senior quarterback who has until now almost always seen his big passing days go for naught.

He picked apart the Wolfpack’s defense, helping Duke roll to 502 total yards and convert 13 of 19 third downs to dominate the game in front of a stunned home crowd for

the Wolfpack (3-3, 0-2).

Lewis was sharp from the beginning, guiding the Blue Devils to touchdowns on their first three drives. And even though the Blue Devils had a few of those onlycan-happen-to-Duke mistakes that helped the Wolfpack hang around, Lewis just wouldn’t let the Blue Devils falter.

Duke earned its first ACC road win since beating North Carolina to close the 2003 regular season, ending a 20-game losing streak.

With the game tied at 28 midway through the third quarter, Lewis directed a 10-play drive that ended with his 8-yard scoring pass to Austin Kelly with 3:41 left. Then the Blue Devils caught a huge break when a Blue Devil punt bounced off blocker Justin Byers and Duke recovered at N.C. State’s 11-yard line.

Three plays later, Lewis connected with Vernon for a 5-yard touchdown that pushed the lead to 42-28 with 11:02 left. And when the Blue Dev-

ils’ defense — which hung in after a rough start against N.C. State quarterback Russell Wilson — stuffed Toney Baker on a fourth-and-1 with 6:05 left, the Blue Devils could feel that this game would be different from all those other league losses.

On the other sideline, things only got worse for the Wolfpack, which played the final 5 minutes or so in front of a virtually empty CarterFinley Stadium.

The low point — aside from a miserable defensive performance — came when the Wolfpack botched another punt return in the final minutes in the same fashion, this time with the ball bouncing off the leg of blocker Owen Spencer and rolling into the end zone, where Duke recovered for another touchdown with 3:07 left.

Wilson ran and threw for a touchdown for N.C. State, which never led.

Baker ran for 73 yards and a score and T.J. Graham added a 93-yard kickoff return for a score.

UNC finds offense, plucks Eagles CHAPEL HILL (AP) — North Carolina’s offense finally started scoring. So did the defense.

Quan Sturdivant returned a fumble 49 yards for a touchdown, Bruce Carter brought back an interception 41 yards for another score and the Tar Heels forced six turnovers Saturday during a 42-12 rout of Georgia Southern.

The defense also set up two quick scoring drives with takeaways for North Carolina (4-2).

them out of the national rankings and into last place in the ACC’s Coastal Division.

Turned out, a timely visit from another outmanned Football Championship Subdivision opponent was just what they needed, building a 42-7 halftime lead — their highest-scoring first half in nine years.

The game had no impact on North Carolina’s postseason eligibility because teams may count only one victory per season over an FCS team toward the six necessary to qualify for a bowl, and the Tar Heels routed Citadel 40-6 in the opener.

ust call this reason No. 425,359,871 why I love the NFL. Before the season, most folks would have circled tonight’s Indianapolis at Tennessee battle as the five-star AFC Game of the Week.

Wrong. The Colts enter with a 4-0 record and the defending AFC South champion Titans come in at 0-4.

But there are two surprising marquee AFC

matchups on tap today.

The undefeated Denver Broncos (4-0) play host to the 3-1 New England Patriots, while Cincinnati heads to Baltimore in a clash of 3-1 powers.

Broncos coach Josh McDaniels spent eight seasons as an assistant to Patriot boss Bill Belichick. That always makes for an intriguing storyline.

As for the Bengals, they are one miracle

tipped-pass-turned touchdown by the Broncos away from being unbeaten.

And the Ravens are much more than just a defensive juggernaut these days. Would you believe Baltimore ranks third overall in total offense entering today’s play.

So enjoy more great pro football action today, everybody!

Wake Forest tight end Andrew Parker scores after a catch against Maryland in Saturday’s game in Winston-Salem. The Deacons roared to a 35-10 halftime lead in a high-scoring shootout that ended after press time. Catch up with the Deacs throughout the week in the HPE.

BLACKSBURG, Va. – Virginia Tech settled a few scores with Boston College with one of its most complete games in years.

“We haven’t had one like this in a while,” coach Frank Beamer said after the fifth-ranked Hokies ended a three-game losing streak against the Eagles with a 48-14 victory Saturday.

Virginia Tech (5-1, 4-0 ACC) hounded Boston College 25year-old freshman quarterback David Shinskie all day and pounded the ball on offense with Ryan Williams and an improving passing game.

Tyrod Taylor threw for two early touchdowns, Williams ran for 159 yards and a touchdown and the Hokies gave defensive coordinator Bud Foster little to complain about for a change.

The Eagles (4-2, 2-2) had two first downs and 28 yards after three quarters.

“It’s good that finally all our hard work paid off because we’ve been down on ourselves,” linebacker Cody Grimm said.

Jevan Snead threw four interceptions for Ole Miss (3-2, 1-2 SEC), tying a career high, and the Crimson Tide (6-0, 40) scored after a blocked punt and a fumble recovery on a punt return.

Leigh Tiffin hit five short field goals, passing his father Van Tiffin on the Crimson Tide career list for third place in career scoring.

ARKANSAS 44, NO. 17 AUBURN 23 FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – Michael Smith rushed for 145 yards and a touchdown, and Arkansas held off a late rally to hand the Tigers their first loss.

Arkansas jumped out to a 34-3 lead before Auburn (5-1, 2-1 SEC) responded with a three-touchdown flurry toward the end of the third quarter. Dennis Johnson helped the Razorbacks (3-2, 1-2) regain momentum with a 70-yard kickoff return.

NO. 9 OHIO STATE 31, WISCONSIN 13 COLUMBUS, Ohio – Kurt Coleman and Jermale Hines returned interceptions for touchdowns and Ray Small brought a kickoff back 96 yards, dealing the self-destructive Badgers their first loss of the year.

BOONE – Devon Moore rushed for 124 yards and Appalachian State dominated in the running game to defeat N.C. Central 5521 on Saturday.

The Mountaineers (32) had 407 yards on the ground and six rushing touchdowns.

Former East Davidson and Glenn standout Matt Cline rushed three times for 25 yards and made eight catches for 107 yards.

Appalachian State trailed 14-7 late in the first quarter, but responded with 27 straight points.

Armanti Edwards put the Mountaineers ahead 34-14 on a 7-yard run with 3:15 left in the third quarter.

Edwards finished with 97 yards and two touchdowns on 10 carries, and was 17 of 29 for 237 yards and a touchdown against the Eagles (0-6).

held on over N.C. A&T. The Bears (4-1, 2-0 MEAC) are 4-1 for the first time in 30 years.

James scored with 24 seconds left in the first quarter. A&T (3-3, 1-2) missed two field goals and a penalty cost the mistake-plagued Aggies a touchdown on a kickoff return in the first half.

A&T scored on a 1-yard touchdown run by Tony Coles, but Fred Davis blocked Patrick Courtney’s extra-point attempt.

The Aggies’ Wallace Miles missed a 51-yard field goal as time expired.

some good games and having some plays that killed us. For it all to come together is awesome.”

Eagles coach Frank Spaziani said: “We had some manners laid on us.”

The game was no fun for Shinskie, the former minor league pitcher who said this week he was looking forward to playing in the raucous atmosphere of Lane Stadium.

That didn’t last long as the Hokies hit him hard for the first time on the second play.

He finished the half 0-for-9 with two interceptions, one of which Rashad Carmichael returned 22 yards for a TD, and his team trailing 34-0.

“I don’t know what I was seeing back there,” he said of Foster’s shifting defense. “They switch up their looks a lot. It just felt like they were swimming around the ball.”

The Eagles, coming off wins against Wake Forest and Florida State with Shinskie at quarterback, looked nothing like a team in the Atlantic Division race. Shinskie looked every bit like a freshman despite his age.

VIRGINIA 47, INDIANA 7 CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. – Mikell Simpson ran for four touchdowns and Virginia’s much-maligned offense erupted for its biggest output in five years.

Virginia (2-3) entered the game tied for 117th in the 120member Football Bowl Series in total offense, averaging 272 yards per game. The Cavaliers easily eclipsed that by halftime, with Jameel Sewell’s passing accounting for 248 yards of Virginia’s 337-yard total. Virginia finished with more than 500 yards (536) for the first time since 2004.

Simpson finished with 83 yards on 15 carries and 66 yards on four receptions.

Sewell was 20 of 30 for 308 yards in three quarters before turning the reins over to backup Marc Verica.

The Virginia defense did its share, too, in the only game this season between Big Ten and Atlantic Coast Conference teams.

Simpson’s first two TD runs came after big plays by corner Ras-I Dowling, who forced a fumble and had an interception.

Johnson holds everyone’s attention FONTANA, Calif. (AP) — Juan Pablo Montoya is well aware NASCAR veteran Mark Martin leads the Chase for the Sprint Cup Championship heading into Sunday’s 500-mile race at Auto Club Speedway.

It just doesn’t feel that way.

When Montoya looks at the standings, it’s not Martin’s name that jumps out but three-time defending champion Jimmie Johnson, who lurks just 18 points behind Martin — and 33 points ahead of Montoya — heading into a stretch the native Californian has turned into his own personal springboard to the title.

Johnson has won three times

at California, including a victory last fall that propelled him to his record-tying third consecutive championship. He’s even better at Charlotte and Martinsville, the next two stops, winning 11 times in 31 combined starts.

Johnson has been so dominant during this stretch that other drivers find themselves adjusting their expectations.

Montoya isn’t necessarily concerned about beating Johnson on Sunday — the two drivers will start alongside each other in the second row behind pole sitter Denny Hamlin and Greg Biffle — so much as staying within striking distance.

“I think last week (at Kansas), this week and probably Martinsville are the three tracks I look forward to trying not to lose as many points as I can against Jimmie,” Montoya said. “The way I see it is if you can go through those three races without getting yourself out of reach of Jimmie, you’ll be fine.”

Sticking close to Johnson isn’t easy, especially in California. He’s never finished worse than 16th at the 2-mile oval and hasn’t missed the Top 10 in three years.

Hamlin, who begins Sunday’s race sixth in the standings behind Martin, admitted there’s a bit of an ’uh-oh’ factor seeing Johnson’s name so close to the top.

Logano holds off Vickers in California FONTANA, Calif. (AP) — Joey Logano avoided a late-race collision and held off Brian Vickers to win the NASCAR Nationwide Copart 300 on Saturday at Auto Club Speedway for his fifth series victory of the season and second in two weeks.

The 19-year-old Logano started on the pole, but

fell well back after an incident with Greg Biffle early in the race. Logano steadily worked his way back to front and caught a break when Biffle and Denny Hamlin collided with less than 10 laps to go.

Logano took the lead following a caution with two laps to go, then

pulled away from Vickers. The win proved to be sweet vindication for Logano, who figured he had a top-20 car at best after a scrape with Biffle sent him into the wall.

Instead, Logano found himself in the perfect spot after Biffle, Hamlin and Brad Keselowski got mixed up running three-

wide out of Turn Four.

Logano moved up then pounced after another late caution set up a green-white-checker finish. He roared to the front after the restart and simply had too much for Vickers.

“You don’t want to get me mad,” Logano said. “I just race harder.”

Franchitti bags second IRL title HOMESTEAD, Fla. (AP) — Dario Franchitti’s return to IndyCar racing couldn’t have gone better. He’s the IRL champion once again.

Franchitti successfully emerged from one of the closest points races in series history Saturday, winning the season-ending Indy 300 at Homestead-Miami Speedway in the first caution-free IRL race ever.

The 2007 champion — who skipped 2008 to explore NASCAR — held off Target Chip Ganassi teammate Scott Dixon and Penske Racing’s Ryan Briscoe.

So on the 10th day of the 10th month of the year, Franchitti’s No. 10 car reigned supreme over the IRL. “I can’t believe it,” Franchitti said. “It all worked out.”

He sat back and saved fuel over much of the final 50 laps, and when his two fellow contenders pitted late, the title was his.

“Congrats to him,” Briscoe said. “It hurts.”

Franchitti’s wife, Ashley Judd, got a huge hug from Chip Ganassi as soon as the checkered flag fell, and Dixon was one of the first to slap Franchitti a high-five

as the new champion emerged from the track.

“We were sticking to our strategy,” Franchitti said. “Our car was really good at the end.”

Franchitti finished with 616 points, 11 ahead of Dixon and 12 ahead of Briscoe.

Tony Kanaan was fourth and Helio Castroneves fifth, but on this day, they were afterthoughts.

Tiger Woods reacts to his birdie putt on the 17th hole of his foursomes match at the Presidents Cup on Saturday in San Francisco. Woods and partner Steve Stricker went on to defeat International players Mike Weir and Tim Clark, 1-up.

Woods, Stricker go unbeaten SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Tiger Woods and Steve Stricker became the first partnership in the Presidents Cup to go 4-0, winning twice Saturday behind an improbable rally by Woods and the pure putting of Stricker.

On the verge of defeat in morning foursomes, Woods made a 25-foot birdie putt to square the match on the 17th, then drilled a 3-iron to 8 feet on the final hole for an eagle that was conceded in a 1-up victory over Mike Weir and Tim Clark.

In afternoon fourballs, Woods only had to watch Stricker make one long birdie putt after another in

a 4-and-2 victory over Y.E. Yang and 18-year-old Ryo Ishikawa, the first loss for the Asian duo.

Jim Furyk and Anthony Kim held on for a 2-up victory over Adam Scott and Angel Cabrera, assuring the Americans the lead going into the final day of 12 singles matches.

The International team picked up easy victories in fourballs from Weir and Ernie Els, who had a 5-and-3 win over Zach Johnson and Justin Leonard; and Geoff Ogilvy and Robert Allenby, winning 2-and-1 over Lucas Glover and Stewart Cink.

Edwards, the Pro Stock points leader, improved on his 6.606 from Friday with a 6.531 at 211.26 on Saturday, the second-quickest pass in NHRA Pro Stock history.

Work continues for Tigers, Cowboys HIGH POINT â&#x20AC;&#x201C; To win Friday nightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s showdown against unbeaten Ragsdale, Southwest Guilfordâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s defense was going to have to put up big numbers.

The Cowboys played well again defensively â&#x20AC;&#x201C; but not until the Tigers grabbed a 28-0 lead on the way to a 35-0 victory.

By scoring on four of their first five possessions, the Tigers sapped all the energy out of a rivalry that had produced a couple of classic contests the past few seasons. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We had to come out harder than last year,â&#x20AC;? said D-onovan Smith, who galloped for 157 yards on 27 carries. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This year we got movement up front, came out strong and we just ran.â&#x20AC;?

After opening the game in what appeared to be â&#x20AC;&#x153;name that scoreâ&#x20AC;?

mode, the Tigers dropped off considerably. Ragsdale punted three times in the second half and managed just six first downs.

Tigers coach Tommy Norwood credited the Southwest defense for that, while also blaming himself as Ragsdale fine-tunes for its run at a Piedmont Triad 4A championship. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I thought we played real good early, lost a little focus, and maybe I did some things that their defense didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t give us, but I wanted to see us do no matter what â&#x20AC;&#x201C; some stupidity on my part,â&#x20AC;? Norwood said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I just wanted us to execute a little better.

We need some guys to step up and make some plays.â&#x20AC;?

That happened for the Tiger defense, which recorded its third straight shutout. Southwest, meanwhile, only has a field goal â&#x20AC;&#x201C; after getting the ball at the 10-yard line in overtime last week â&#x20AC;&#x201C; in its past three games.

The Cowboys experimented with Airyn Willis at quarterback Friday, while Davis Inman still got 12 attempts through the air. Nothing worked against stingy Ragsdale, as the Cowboys finished with 23 yards rushing on 24 attempts, 37 yards through the air and three first downs.

Take away J.J. Garrisonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 43-yard breakaway late in the fourth quarter, and Southwest nears single digits for total yards. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is the same football team that won three games to start the season,â&#x20AC;?

Cowboys coach Scott Schwarzer said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve just got to find a way to win again, to pull together. We have four games left and we have to find a way to win two of them. I think we can win them all, but we have to find a way to win two of the last four (to qualify for the playoffs).â&#x20AC;? shanf@hpe.com | 888-3526

HIGH POINT â&#x20AC;&#x201C; After only three years, Atkins High School remains in the embryonic stage of development as a football program, but has far exceeded its years in terms of kindling a rivalry.

T. Wingate Andrews dispatched the Camels 19-0 Friday. Atkinsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; seventh loss of the season appeared to be taken personally. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There was a lot of trash talk,â&#x20AC;?

Raiders linebacker Daniel Pinnix said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We just tried to keep our composure, not come down to their level.

It feels good to get the shutout. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been working on that all week.â&#x20AC;?

In the midst of a dry spell on offense, with Andrews clinging to a 10-0 lead, the team was in search of a boost when the most unlikely of touchdowns gave the Raiders the quick lift they sought.

With Atkins buried at its 4-yard line following sacks by Pinnix and Desmond Alston, Andrews sent the house to block a punt, failed on the attempt but altered the trajectory of the kick. As it trickled to a stop around the 10-yard line, a swifthanded Mark Johnson scooped up the ball for the Raiders and cruised into the end zone for a 16-0 lead.

While Andrews coach Rodney McKoy was thrilled with the six points, he gave the play something

BY JASON QUEEN SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE

TRINITY â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Trinityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s triple-option offense is generally a slow, grind-it-out machine that looks like it was lifted from the 1960s.

The Bulldogs generally try to pound defenses into submission 5 yards at a time with fullback Angelo Dunn.

Randleman limited that option in the two teamsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; PAC 6 opener at Trinity on Friday, but the Tigers forgot about stopping the quarterback.

The Bulldogs made them pay dearly.

Starting quarterback Rhyne Kivett ran for 108 yards and a touchdowns â&#x20AC;&#x201C; on three carries â&#x20AC;&#x201C; before leaving the game late McInnis in the first quarter with an ankle sprain. Secondstringer Mario McInnis then gashed the Tigers for 183 yards and two scores on 14 carries. All told, the Bulldogs piled up 370 yards on the ground and broke 12 runs of 10 yards or more.

Trinity coach Alex Mebane said Kivett could have returned, but there was no need. While Mebaneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s teams normally thrive with the dive back, Friday the Bulldogs took what the defense was giving. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our plan was to do what we always do, which is run the triple option,â&#x20AC;?

Mebane said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve struggled some a little bit with it recently; not a whole lot, but a little bit. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So we emphasized it with our kids. And that starts up front. I know our offensive line did a good job of getting things moving for us and the backs did a good job of executing.â&#x20AC;?

When the Bulldogs went to the air, they were equally efficient. Kivett only threw one pass, but it went for a 49yard touchdown to Ryan Spencer.

Likewise, McInnSpencer is threw one time, and it went for a 62-yard touchdown to Spencer.

Trinity, now 1-0 in the conference and 4-3 overall, will be looking to keep the big plays going when it plays host to T. Wingate Andrews on Friday. The Red Raiders also stand 4-3, 1-0, making the contest an early battle for first place.

HPU notches first victory in Big South volleyball ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

BOILING SPRINGS High Point University’s volleyball team got its first Big South Conference win of the season at Gardner-Webb Saturday at the Paul Porter Arena. The Panthers swept the Bulldogs 3-0 (25-19, 25-16, 25-21).

GWU nearly made a comeback in the third set, tying the score as late as 21-21 but High Point remained in control..

“It feels good to get first win in conference and it feels even better to get the first road win,” said head coach Jason Oliver. “It was nice to see that we can still have focus and determination through adversity and get a good result.

“We need to continue this and perform well at home and defend our home court.”

Megan Smith led all attackers with 11 kills.

Megan Kaminskas, Anna Lott and Stephanie Wallin each contributed nine kills. Wallin also put up two solo blocks and one assisted block.

The Panthers took their first lead of the match at 9-8 in the first set on a service ace by Julie Hershkowitz.

HPU extended the lead to 12-8 with another ace

by Hershkowitz and a kill and a block by Megan Kaminskas.

The ulldogs kept High Point’s lead small until a huge cross court kill from Lott put HPU up 21-16 and gave the Pan-

thers control of the rest of the frame.

Kaminskas and Wallin put up a block on the final point to give HPU a 1-0 set advantage and the 25-19 set win.

Kaminskas, Lott and Smith each had four kills in the set.

The Panthers jumped out to a 17-13 lead on a kill by Smith made possible by a diving dig from Lyndsay Rowley.

High Point remained in control of the match working the lead to 2115 on a block by Courtney Johnk, forcing Gardner-Webb to use their final timeout.

Johnk kept up her aggressive play after the break, putting down two more kills to help HPU to the 25-16 set win.

Hershkowitz came up with 12 digs in the set and Wallin, Lott and Johnk all put up solo blocks.

Gardner-Webb came out with energy in the third set, taking a 10-6 lead after scoring five straight points.

With Wallin at the service line the Panthers down 11-15, HPU went on a 5-0 run to take a 16-15 lead.

The Bulldogs kept it close, tying the score as late as 21-21 but the Panthers kept their composure and took the set 2521 with Wallin putting down her ninth kill of the match for the 25th point.

High Point (11-11, 1-5 BSC) returns home after five games on the road Tuesday for a match with Liberty at 7 p.m. in the Millis Center.

Dodgers complete sweep

AP

Seats sit empty on the main concourse as snow covers the playing surface of Coors Field on Saturday, after Major League Baseball officials postponed Game 3 of the National League division series between the Philadelphia Phillies and Colorado Rockies.

Snow stops Phillies, Rockies DENVER (AP) — The snow in Colorado scrapped plans for Pedro Martinez’s first postseason start in five years.

Game 3 of the Philadelphia-Colorado playoff series was postponed a day because of weather Saturday better suited for cross-country skiing.

That prompted a pitching switch by the Phillies, with left-hander J.A. Happ going to the mound Sunday instead of the 37year-old Martinez. The Rockies are sticking with Jason Hammel.

The Phillies holed up in their hotel Saturday with no plans of working out at the ballpark. The Rockies summoned their players for a 90-minute workout inside Coors Field.

“We just want to keep ourselves on somewhat of a schedule,” manager Jim Tracy said.

Tracy suspected this might not be a night for baseball when even his dogs wanted to skip their morning walk. Major League Baseball agreed with Tracy’s beagles, pushing back Game 3 of

this NL division series to Sunday night and Game 4 to Monday.

The playoff is tied at one game each. Game 5, if necessary, will be played as scheduled Tuesday in Philadelphia, without a day off for travel.

“I think it’s a very wise decision,” Tracy told The Associated Press by phone. “You could have something happen in weather like this where you could lose a player for half a year in 2010. I don’t think that would be good for anybody.”

BoSox return home for must-win game BOSTON (AP) — The Boston Red Sox had history on their side going into their AL division series with the Los Angeles Angels.

Now they need hits.

The four the Red Sox managed in each of their two losses probably won’t be enough in Game 3 on

Sunday. And they’ll probably need more than one run — their total in those two games — to avoid a sweep.

The passionate fans at Fenway Park will shout for their players but can’t swing the bats for them.

The team with five 20home run hitters faces

two options: start hitting or start packing their bags.

“I don’t think the panic button or any more undue pressure is really going to be that beneficial,” said Jason Bay, who hit 36 homers this season but has just one hit in the postseason.

ST. LOUIS (AP) — Unemployed in August, Vicente Padilla kept the Los Angeles Dodgers going in October.

The second-chance pitcher shut down Albert Pujols and the St. Louis Cardinals, putting the Los Angeles Dodgers back in the National League championship series with a 5-1 victory on Saturday night.

Andre Ethier missed the cycle by a single, Manny Ramirez had three hits and two RBIs and the Dodgers didn’t need help from another Cardinals fielding blunder to sweep their division series opponent for a second straight season.

Pujols and Matt Holliday were a combined 2 for 8 with a late RBI for the Cardinals, who never recharged after becoming the first National League team to clinch a division title.

St. Louis was 1-9 after wrapping up the NL Central, and was swept for the first time in the division series or NLCS play and only for the third time overall in the postseason.

Padilla, designated for assignment by the Rangers in early August, was 4-0 the final month with the Dodgers before shutting down the Cardinals on four hits over seven innings in his first career postseason appearance.

Hayworth splits ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

SALISBURY – Hayworth Christian posted a firstround victory and second-round loss in the Mid-State Christian Conference tournament on Saturday at North Hills Christian.

Hayworth came back to defeat Cabarrus Home Educators 23-25, 25-17, 2514,25-16 then was swept 25-15, 25-16, 25-14 by North Hills to finish the season 6-8.

Leaders for Hayworth for the two games were Brittany Spencer (four kills, 12 digs, 5 aces), Brittany Farmer (11 kills, six digs, six aces), Brittany Snider ( four kills, six assists), Olivia Manning (six kills, 16 assists), Kaitlyn O’ Brien (seven digs) and Megan O’Brien (11 assists).

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Chris Paul scored 23 points and the New Orleans Hornets closed the game with a 13-0 run to beat the Oklahoma City Thunder 88-79 victory on Saturday.

Byron Mullens two free throws remaining with 5:05 left gave the Thunder (0-2) a 79-75 lead. But Paul, who came in with 3:45 remaining after sitting out much of the fourth quarter, scored five points down the stretch to give the Hornets their first win of the preseason.

Devin Brown added 13 points and was the only other Hornets player in double figures. Jeff Green scored 15 points and Nenad Krstic 14 for the Thunder. Serge Ibaka added 12 points.

Kevin Durant had 11 points but struggled from the field, making 2 of 11 attempts.

Colts look for more hits in Music City

BY BARRY WILNER AP FOOTBALL WRITER

ceiving crew, aside from Reggie Wayne and Dallas Clark, Manning has overseen a rapid maturation process for the likes of Pierre Garcon, Austin Collie and running back Donald Brown. In last week’s win over Seattle that boosted Indianapolis to 4-0, four receivers – Clark, Wayne, Collie and Joseph Addai – had at least six receptions.

Also today, it’s New England at Denver; Atlanta at San Francisco; Houston at Arizona; Indianapolis at Tennessee; Pittsburgh at Detroit; Minnesota at St. Louis; Dallas at Kansas City; Washington at Carolina; Tampa Bay at Philadelphia; Oakland at the New York Giants; Cleveland at Buffalo; and Jacksonville at Seattle.

The New York Jets visit Miami on Monday night.

With apologies to Brooks and Dunn, when Peyton Manning plays something country in Music City, Titans fans aren’t likely to enjoy the tune.

The way the three-time league MVP is performing – and the way the Titans are reeling – the matchup with the Colts could be a prime-time rout.

NBC must have pinpointed tonight’s meeting as one of the most attractive on its schedule. Then the Titans (0-4) went into such a serious dive that no matter how much spin the network puts on its telecast, viewers could be searching for something more entertaining by halftime.

Then again, they might stick around to see if Manning can continue his phenomenal passing pace. NEW ENGLAND (3-1) Instead of being saddled AT DENVER (4-0) by an inexperienced reThe mentor (Bill Belich-

ick) and the student (Josh McDaniels). Clearly, McDaniels learned plenty during his eight years under Belichick in New England. He’s done as good a job ignoring criticism about how he handled some situations – Jay Cutler, Brandon Marshall – with the Broncos as, well, Belichick always has done everywhere he’s coached.

CINCINNATI (3-1) AT BALTIMORE (3-1) The Bengals have gone down to the final seconds in all four games and are one fluky deflected TD pass away from 4-0. Just like the Broncos, though, they get their best test on Sunday against the tickedoff Ravens.

ATLANTA (2-1) AT SAN FRANCISCO (3-1) Another proving ground – for both sides.

The Niners are just as close as the Bengals to being spotless, falling only

N.C. rifleman wins national championship I

n the clear October air, a rifleman lies on a mat and loads another round in his rifle. At 1,000 yards, ten football fields, the four-foot diameter bullseye looks like the period at the end of this sentence. It takes a .308 Winchester bullet over two seconds to cover the distance and, in traveling that distance, the bullet drops about 34 feet. Failing to notice and correct for a two-mile per hour wind change will result in the bullet failing to connect with the six-foot square of paper the bull’s eye is printed on.

The shooter takes a breath, releases it and snuggles in behind the 22-pound rifle. Imperceptibly, his trigger finger moves, and the rifle fires – the muzzle rising slightly and settling back down. The tiny lookSPORTS ing target drops behind the distant berm as the Dick sound of the shot echoes Jones across the range. The ■■■ rifleman looks through the scope beside his left elbow and watches the target come back up with a white spotter disc marking the location of the shot, centered in the 5-inch X-ring in the center of the target.

This kind of precision shooting may sound impossible, but the scene was repeated countless times last week on Range 4 of the National Guard Training Site at Butner. Three days of close competition in the F-Class, Long-Range Rifle Championships, held by the North State Shooting Club, eventually sorted out who was the best among 147 of the best riflemen in the country.

Riflemen from all over the U.S. attended plus four from England.

To give some idea of how difficult it is to shoot a shot into a 10-inch circle at 1,000 yards, consider that most hunting rifles are capable of putting five shots in about 2 inches at 100 yards off a bench rest. Add to this the fact that these shooters were shooting 15 shots and that the wind is capable of blowing a bullet off course as much as 10 feet at that distance. To be competitive in this kind of shooting, you must have an excellent rifle, be a knowledgeable reloader to create ammunition that is capable of consistent performance, be capable of shooting really well, must be able to read the wind conditions and make sight adjustments to compensate.

The match was contested at both 600 and 1,000 yards with typical Camp Butner winds fishtailing from the south.

Fishtailing winds are so called because they switch back-and-forth, causing shooters to constantly change wind settings to stay in the 10 ring. Wind changes happen randomly, so the value of the wind can change as the shooter fires the shot.

Reading the wind is the most difficult of all these requirements. The most accurate information in reading the effect of the wind comes from watching the mirage created by heat that distorts the image in the shooter’s spotting scope. Experienced riflemen can monitor the frequency and amplitude of the mirage and estimate the wind’s effects to within a couple of inches of bullet de-

F CLASS LONG RANGE COMPETITION

---

Two classes of rifles are allowed in F Class competition. The big guns are the F Open class. These guns can be fired off a front and rear rest and may weigh as much as 22 pounds. Caliber choice up to .35 is allowed but at Camp Butner, due to the limited impact area of just over 3 miles, no guns over .30 are allowed. Typical calibers are .300 Winchester Magnum and 6.5/284. The super magnums are not popular because the normal course of fire is 15 to 20 shots and these calibers tend to heat up enough to cause unacceptable barrel wear. Normal barrel life on the more sedate magnum calibers is only about 1,000 rounds.

The F/TR class consists of guns chambered for military calibers of 7.62Nato (.308 Winchester) and 5.56 Nato (.223 Remington). These guns can weigh no more than 18 pounds and must be fired without a rear rest.

The North State Shooting Club holds about 12 F Class events a year including matches and practices. http://www. northstateshootingclub.com For more about Ballard’s rifle go to: www.precisionriflesales.com flection at 1,000 yards. Also, along the side of the range, there are flags that indicate the direction and speed of the wind. These are useful since they are easily seen while the shooter is getting ready to fire.

Danny Biggs, from Alabama, won the F/TR class with a 1,288-36x. But Charles Ballard, of Mebane, N.C., won the bigger F Open class with a 1,32862x. Ballard shot a total of 135 shots and only lost 22 points from a perfect score of 1,350. He put 108 shots in the tiny 10 ring and 62 of those were in the even smaller x ring. He shot three perfect 15-shot strings in the competition at 600 yards.

Ballard’s rifle is also from Mebane and was built by his boss, Ray Bowman. Charles works for Precision Rifle and Tool. The rifle was chambered for a .284 Winchester. Ballard was using Berger bullets and a Night Force scope. Ballard is no new comer to F Class, currently holding the F Class 1,000 yard record, a 200-13x. Ballard also won last year’s National Championship.

“F Class shooting is my love,” Ballard said. “I had a five-point lead going into the last day. On the next to the last relay, I was tied with Jim Murphy of Owensboro, Ky. In the middle of the relay, I shot two nines and an eight. I couldn’t figure out what caused them but I got right back into the 10 ring and stayed there for the rest of the relay. I finished my string before Murphy and watched him shoot a nine on his last shot. That put me one point ahead and I stayed there until the end.”

Cherishing life People come to Hospice Home at High Point to die, but you might be surprised to learn how much joy they find

BY JIMMY TOMLIN ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

VOLUNTEERS

IGH POINT – When Danielle Stuart accepted a nursing job at Hospice Home at High Point, she knew she would see people die – and she was OK with that.

“I’ve never had a fear of being with someone when they die,” says Stuart, who worked at a nursing home for eight years before joining Hospice Home when it opened three years ago.

“I just honestly did not realize the amount of death we would see here. I never thought we would see that many people pass here.”

As of Oct. 2 – the facility’s three-year anniversary – Hospice Home had cared for 855 patients, the majority of whom died at the home. (A small percentage of patients received temporary care, then returned to their own homes to die.) According to Hospice Home officials, the 14-bed facility averages about 35 patient admissions a month and about 35 deaths or discharges, mostly deaths.

That more or less equates to a death every day.

That’s what Stuart means when she says she wasn’t prepared for how much death she would see at Hospice Home. But it’s a safe bet she wasn’t prepared for how much life she would see there, either.

“It’s hard work, but it’s fun, too,” Stuart says. “I know that sounds terrible. How can it be fun working with people who are dying? But it is. Some people are able to talk to you, and they’re still walking, eating and enjoying life. They realize their life is ending, but they still want to make the best of their life.”

Consider, for example, the 40-

Hospice Home at High Point volunteer training will be held Oct. 22, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Volunteers are needed for light phone answering and greeting guests. The greatest need is for evenings and weekends. (This is different from training for patient/family volunteers, which requires 20 hours of training.)

Anyone interested should call Kim Kaufmann, volunteer coordinator, at 878-7226 by Friday.

SPECIAL | HPE

Laura Cammer, director of Hospice Home, holds cake commemorating the facility’s birthday. Celebrations are common there. something man who celebrated his final birthday while a patient at Hospice Home.

“All he wanted for his birthday was a pizza, a strawberry cake and some silk pajamas,” Stuart recalls. “His parents weren’t able to meet those needs for him, so we put our money together and got him those silk pajamas – red – and the cake and the pizza, and he had the best birthday party.

He was ecstatic. We sang to him, brought the cake in with candles, the whole shebang.”

The man died a couple of days later, with memories of those red

silk PJ’s still fresh in his mind.

Stuart also served as the maid of honor in a patient’s wedding last December.

“This gentleman wanted to remarry his wife before he passed away, and he wanted to be sure she knew how much he loved her,” Stuart says. “So they got married in the family room – in front of the Christmas tree – and it was the most beautiful display of love I have ever seen. There wasn’t a dry eye in the room – we were all crying.”

Such events are not uncommon at Hospice Home, according to

YOUR COMMUNITY. YOUR NEWSPAPER.

Laura Cammer, director of the facility.

“We do ‘joy of living’ here every day – weddings, birthday parties, things like that,” she says. “It sounds weird to say, but we really have fun here.”

Cammer says such events don’t take away from the home’s primary mission, but actually enhance it. The patient’s comfort is the ultimate goal, she says, whether that means pain medication, spiritual counseling, a hand to hold, a chocolate milkshake, or even a birthday party with pizza, strawberry cake and silk pajamas.

“I think everybody who works here is very giving, caring and gentle-natured, and is very much here in support of the patient and the family,” Cammer says of her 35-employee staff. “They’re very tuned in to what’s important for that person right now, recognizing that their time is very limited and knowing it’s important for us to listen closely to what things are

Positive action will bring good results. Your numbers are 6, 10, 18, 23, 27, 39, 43 ARIES (March 21-April 19): Hold off saying something derogatory and things will turn in your favor much faster. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s better to let others do as they please.

Talk of suicide threatens mom-to-be and baby D

ear Abby: A woman I work with is pregnant. While this may seem like exciting news, it is the opposite. She is already depressed and often talks about suicide.

My real concern is for her baby.

She often says how, if she has a girl, sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll drown it, suffocate it, etc. She says it openly. Everyone in the office has heard her make these statements.

The babyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s father is an alcoholic, and he is the one who wants the kid â&#x20AC;&#x201C; not her. She already has an older child she has nothing to do with.

I feel something should be done to keep her baby from being harmed, but what can I do? Can Child Protective Services be of any help when it comes to an unborn baby? Or should we co-workers speak up and ask her to seek help? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Worried in Illinois Dear Worried: Of course you should speak up! Hormones have a lot to do with the way people think and react â&#x20AC;&#x201C; as anyone knows who has had anything to do with women who suffer from PMS. Your co-worker should be urged to level with her OB/GYN about the feelings she is experiencing.

I discussed your letter with Child Protective Services and was informed that no interven-

tion can be done until a baby is actually born. However, when your coworker goes to the hospital to have her child, you should notify the hospital ADVICE officials because, if necessary, an Dear intervention can be Abby done, and CPS can â&#x2013; â&#x2013; â&#x2013; become involved when she delivers.

It goes without saying that when anyone talks about suicide, that person should be advised to discuss their feelings with a counselor at one of the suicide prevention hotlines. Both numbers are toll-free: (800) 784-2433 and (800) 273-8255.

Dear Abby: I am a 22-year-old woman, fairly mature, intelligent and stable. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m 5-foot-3 and wear a size 5 or 6.

I have this friend, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Tish,â&#x20AC;? who is stunningly gorgeous.

She looks like a model, stands about 5-foot-8 and wears a size 1 or 2. She dresses stylishly and has the figure to pull off many outfits that I never could. Tish is also a nice person who has never said anything to put me down. I feel no ill will toward her, just inferior when Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m around her.

I have had super-short hair most of my life, but have been growing it out for the past year to â&#x20AC;&#x153;reinventâ&#x20AC;? myself. When I saw Tish last week, she had donated her shoulder-length hair to Locks of Love and now sports an ultrachic haircut that makes her look better than I ever did. I cried for almost an hour after she left.

I know my feelings are stupid and childish. Not only do I feel ugly externally next to Tish, but also internally ugly for being so hung-up on appearance when she hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t done me any wrong. How can I get rid of these unwanted feelings? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Pale in Comparison Dear Pale: You say you feel inferior when youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re around Tish.

How do you feel when youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not around her? And why are you constantly comparing yourself to her?

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important for your future that you figure out whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s behind it, because unless you do, your feelings of inferiority will extend beyond this one individual.

New York launches program to market green lodgings ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The New York state Department of Environmental Conservation has launched a program to certify hotels as â&#x20AC;&#x153;greenâ&#x20AC;? for using environmentally sound and sustainable practices.

Forty-three hotels and inns across the state have signed on.

To be certified, hoteliers must save energy, reduce waste, conserve water and resources and prevent pollution. The Audubon GreenLeaf program will certify lodgings and award them one to five green leaves based on performance.

The certification program is

part of a larger state initiative to support and market sustainable tourism. The New York State Green Hospitality and Tourism Partnership, which includes state agencies and business and academic groups, launched a green restaurant program earlier this year.

Woman feels life is ending after losing driver’s license D

Let’s deal with polycythemia (POLee-sigh-THEME-ee-uh) first. It’s the condition where the bone marrow produces too many blood cells – red, white and platelets, the clotting cells. No one knows why it starts, but quite often, it

progresses slowly. Many have no symptoms for decades. It’s often discovered because a person happens to have a blood count done for some unrelated reason.

In time, the thick HEALTH blood brings on symptoms, such as dizziness, Dr. Paul ear noises, headaches, Donohue vision problems, in■■■ creased blood pressure and clots forming in veins. It can even lead to strokes. And what seems paradoxical is a tendency to bleed in spite of having an abundance of clot-forming cells. That’s because the platelets, the clotting cells, often are ineffective.

When polycythemia produces no

symptoms, people usually are not prescribed any treatment. If and when symptoms occur, then treatment consists of drawing blood to get the blood count to a normal level. That relieves symptoms. If your driver’s license was taken away because of polycythemia symptoms, treatment should alleviate the symptoms, and you could get your license back.

If your license was taken for other reasons, let me know what those reasons were. I understand how loss of a driver’s license makes a Dperson feel like his or her freedom is lost, especially if that person is living in a place with nonexistent public transportation. I need more details. Things are not hopeless.

Dear G.S: There are many reasons why dogs lick and chew at themselves like your poor old dog. A veterinary examination is advisable to help make your dog’s final years more enjoyable.

One flea on a dog can trigger this behavior, as can a thorn or other foreign body in the paw.

Sometimes, such self-mutilating dogs turn out to have an allergy to anything from grass to dust mites, floor cleaner or one or more food ingredients.

Further research on your part is needed because I can offer no simple home remedies. General discomfort, as with arthritis and boredom, can bring on this behavior that has elements of obsessive/ compulsiveness (OCD) and self-comforting behavior gone haywire. In many instances, a sedating dose of antihistamine helps, or a very short course of steroid therapy. The OCD may be effectively treated with a psychotropic medication like Prozac, but I would first rule out possible physical cause before considering this to be primarily a psychological problem. At least try distracting her with a clicker-dog training tool, and give her safe items to enjoy chewing on.

Dear Dr. Fox: I have read your book “Cat Body, Cat Mind” with great interest and would like your opinion.

You may already have heard about Oscar, a resident cat at a Rhode Island nursing home who has predicted the deaths of more than 25 human residents by going into their rooms and lying with them on their beds until they expire. Someone at the nursing home has commented that Oscar is not normally a friendly cat, so this snuggling up to terminal patients is quite unusual.

This story was written up by a doctor at the nursing home and first published in the New England Journal of Medicine in July 2007. I’ve enclosed a printout in case you aren’t familiar with it. What do

Dear M.McD.: I certainly ANIMAL would have included DOCTOR this remarkable account Dr. Michael of cat Oscar Fox in my lat■■■ est book, but, unfortunately, it was published before the story of Oscar came out.

The nursing-home staff came to rely on Oscar, a better observer of patients than they were it would seem. The question is: Why was Oscar so motivated? His acute senses can explain how he knew, but why he chose to be with someone in the transition into death is part of the great mystery that I discuss in my book; and toward which many cats evince considerable sensitivity and responsiveness.

It is through what I term the “empathosphere” that such heightened awareness is experienced, not only by cats but by other animals, including dogs and humans.

I would appreciate hearing from readers about changes observed in animals when someone is about to die or has just passed on.

Gettysburg of the West

Visitor walks past the Civil War exhibit at the Pecos National Historical Park visitors center in Pecos, N.M. The park dedicated a new trail through the nearby Glorieta Battlefield earlier this year.

New Mexico Civil War battlefield gets exposure

BY SUSAN MONTOYA BRYAN ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER

A

LBUQUERQUE, N.M. – The plan was to march up the Rio Grande, capture the city of Santa Fe and seize the thousands of rifles, dozens of cannons and other supplies at Fort Union for a campaign that would expand the Confederacy’s borders all the way to the California Coast.

But Union soldiers stood their ground at a pinch along the Santa Fe Trail known as Glorieta Pass, resulting in a battle that historians often refer to as “the Gettysburg of the West.”

Until recently, public access to the Civil War battlefield was limited.

But earlier this year, the National Park Service opened a new trail that allows visitors to explore the area.

The Glorieta Battlefield Trail – more than 2 miles through the wooded and rocky hills southeast of Santa Fe – has been in the planning stages for several years. It’s aimed at educating people about the decisive 1862 battle.

“In many ways the Civil War was a defining moment for this country but very few people know much about this campaign,” said Jim Houghton, a Civil War buff and president of the Glorieta Battlefield Coalition. “Had it been successful, the outcome of the war could have been significantly changed.”

Unlike states in the East, New Mexico isn’t known for its Civil War battlefields, of which there are less than a handful. Still, preservation of such sites is a priority for the Park Service, said Christine Beekman, chief of interpretation and visitor services at Pecos National Historical Park, which

IF YOU GO...

----

PECOS NATIONAL HISTORICAL PARK: Pecos, N.M.; www.nps. gov/peco/ or 505-7577200. Located about 25 miles from Santa Fe; $3 entrance fee.

To access the new 21⁄4mile Glorieta Battlefield Trail, stop at the park visitors center to obtain directions, a printed trail guide and other information. The trail is about

a 15-minute drive from the center. Winter hours for the visitors center are 8 a.m.-4:30 p.m. daily (closed Christmas and New Year’s Day).

Two-hour van tours of Civil War sites in the area are offered every Saturday at 1:30 p.m., departing from the visitors center, $2 per person, six people per tour.

oversees the Glorieta Battlefield.

The park acquired much of the land necessary for preserving the battlefield in 1990. But it wasn’t until it acquired a key piece of property at Pigeon’s Ranch – which was used during the battle as a hospital for both Union and Confederate troops – that planning for the trail began in earnest.

After two years of work by the park and several volunteer groups, the trail is lined with metal signs that recount what happened during those last few days of March 1862.

The Confederate soldiers, which had mobilized in Texas for the mission westward, were out for supplies, weapons, sympathetic recruits, gold and silver in Colorado and California’s blockade free ports.

By late March, they had already taken Fort Fillmore near Mesilla and Albuquerque and were camped at the west entrance to Glorieta Pass. On the other side was the Union.

After two days of exchanging volleys and another day of burying the dead, the Confederate troops took Sharpshooters Ridge, gained the upper hand and forced the Union colonel to order his troops to fall back.

With their attention turned to the battlefield, the Confederate troops had no idea that another group of Union forces had circled around and destroyed their supply train. With that, the Con-

federates had to retreat without food or supplies, ending their plans to take the West.

Houghton said the challenge at Glorieta has always been that a state highway bisects the battlefield.

“By placing this trail on the ridge, it gives visitors an opportunity to actually hike through parts of the battlefield in a safe manner and it also gives them a panoramic view where they can look down on portions of the battlefield,” he said.

The new trail was dedicated in June.

Beekman said it’s also important for visitors to see the topography and other obstacles at Glorieta Pass that would have hampered the troops during battle.

Glorieta has been listed in years past as one of the most endangered and at-risk Civil War sites in the nation by the Civil War Preservation Trust in Washington, D.C. Trust spokeswoman Mary Koik said preservation and interpretation of such sites is becoming more important as development increases.

“Every day about 30 acres of Civil War battlefield get paved over,” she said. “It’s certainly something that’s going at

an alarming rate.”

Part of the problem, she said, is people are unaware that such historic sites can exist in their communities.

“It’s sad but true,” she said. “Often folks will have this history quite literally in their backyard. You may drive by it every day but you’ll never really connect to what’s there. That’s why having these trails and signs, interpretation of the battlefield, is really important.”

important to them.”

Sometimes, it’s the little things that mean the most.

“We’ve got a lady here right now who wants us to call her Mama,” says Janice Cook, a nursing assistant who has worked at Hospice Home for about two years. “She just said, ‘Everybody calls me Mama,’ so that’s what I call her. To me, it’s an honor to call her Mama.”

For Cook, who cared for both of her aging parents in her home until their deaths, Hospice Home is not just a job – it’s a calling.

“I try to treat people here like I’d want to be treated,” Cook says. “If I was lying there in that bed, I’d want tender care.

I’d want a good bath from head to toe – and you’d better wash my hair really good and get all the soap out. And I try to be understanding with patients, and if they get angry, I let them be angry, because sometimes that’s part of the journey, too.”

The level of care is reflected in the gratitude expressed not only by patients, but even more so by their family members.

“We get a tremendous number of letters saying ‘Thank you so much’ or

‘We didn’t realize you were going to take care of our family member and us’ or ‘You treated my dad like he was your dad,’” Cammer says.

“And we get oodles of family members who come back to visit, and sometimes they’ll bring snacks for the family room, which we really appreciate.”

One man whose brother died at Hospice Home promised he would bring the staff a homemade pound cake on the third day of every month – his brother died on the third of the month – and he’s made good on his pledge for six months now.

“Every month, those pound cakes come,” Cammer says, “and they’re beyond delicious.”

They don’t do it for the pound cake, of course.

There’s a far greater mission.

“Hospice is a place where people can bring their loved ones to die with dignity – most of the time pain-free – and that’s such a blessing,” Cook says. “I think if any of us chose how we wanted our final days to be, it would be just that. I know this would be my place that I would want to come.” jtomlin@hpe.com | 888-3579

Naturally spooky Bats, spiders and catacombs can be loads of fun THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

H

aunted house attractions and ghost tours can be a lot of fun. But some things are naturally spooky, with no fake blood or recorded howls required.

If you relish the notion of getting your thrills and chills without Hollywood special effects, check out the world’s largest urban bat colony in Austin, Texas; immerse yourself in the webby world of spiders at the Museum of Natural History in Los Angeles; or take a trip to Palermo, Sicily, where the Capuchin Catacombs display skeletons and mummified corpses, some dressed in their Sunday best.

AUSTIN BAT COLONY: Fluttering over head then out to the darkening sky beyond, Mexican free-tail bats emerge in downtown Austin at dusk each night from late March until November.

They take flight en masse, a dark moving stream. It’s an eerie sight to some but a delight to scores of bat fans who gather at the Congress Avenue bridge to witness the movement of the 1.5 million mammals on their nightly journey to forage for food.

These bridge bats are considered to be the largest urban bat colony in North America, according to Bat Conservation International. They’re also a tourist attraction for Austin. Visitors and locals alike gather on the bridge, on the banks of Lady Bird Lake below, at nearby bars and restaurants and even on boats. Capital Cruises – www.capitalcruises. com – and Lonestar Riverboat – www.lonestarriverboat.com – offer bat-watching boat trips.

Far from a nuisance, the Austin bats are a prized attraction in this city that prides itself on being “weird.” There’s a bat festival one weekend in the summer to celebrate the colony. Bat observers can call a bat hot line throughout the season for information on the nightly flights, courtesy of the Austin American-Statesman (512) 416-5700, Ext. 3636.

Bat Conservation International educates the public about the bats, most of which migrate to Mexico for the winter. In Austin they make their home in the crevices beneath the bridge. When they go out to eat at night, they help with

pest control by devouring from 10,000 to 20,000 pounds of insects, according to the organization.

These city bats aren’t the only ones visitors come to see in the region, though they may be the most easily accessible for outof-towners. Several large bat colonies can be found in caves in the nearby Hill Country, like the privately owned Bracken Cave near San Antonio, with its concentration of more than 20 million bats.

Near Fredericksburg – a historic town 65 miles west of Austin – as many as 3 million bats emerge on summer evenings from an abandoned narrow railroad tunnel managed by the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department; details at http://tinyurl. com/49t24h.

CAPUCHIN CATACOMBS, PALERMO, SICILY: Rosalia Lombardo still looks like a 2-year-old baby taking a nap, her peaceful features framed by curly blonde hair and a cute yellow ribbon.

But the toddler nicknamed “sleeping beauty” by Italians has been dead for nearly a century, and is one of the best-preserved mummies among thousands lining the catacombs beneath the Capuchin convent in Palermo, Sicily.

Lombardo’s was the last body to be placed in the underground cemetery that was dug in the late 16th century, initially to house deceased monks and later opened to the general populace.

Some 8,000 mummies are openly exposed, stacked ceiling-high in the corridors of the catacombs, lying in open niches or propped up in a standing position, many still dressed in their original clothes.

Monks wearing dark frocks, priests in sacred vestments, aristocrats in their best Sunday dress and the poor in rags as well as young children resting in their cribs were all buried in the catacombs to await Judgment Day. While Lombardo’s body was embalmed by a doctor, most of the mummies were treated by the monks and preserved by the dry environment, leaving smartly dressed desiccated corpses that stare down with empty eyes at visitors walking through the vaulted corridors.

built the convent outside the city walls soon realized the tufa stone in the ground helped preserve the bodies of the dead. They enhanced the process by leaving the bodies to dry for months before treating them with vinegar, lime or arsenic.

The catacombs are located Piazza Cappuccini, 1, Palermo, and are open daily, 8:30 a.m.-1 p.m. and 2:30 p.m.-6 p.m. Entrance fee is about $4.40 (3 euros).

SPIDER PAVILION, NATURAL HISTORY MUSEUM OF LOS ANGELES COUNTY: Hundreds of free-roaming spiders are spinning their webs in this walk-through landscaped exhibit.

Visitors can watch spider feedings and learn about the webs’ intricate architecture and engineering. Fifteen local and exotic species are on display, including the large golden silk spiders of the Nephila genus and the golden orb weavers of the Argiope genus, which are known for their yellow and black markings. Each spins a unique web, some of which are several feet wide.

While some visitors may experience an involuntary shudder or a touch of arachnaphobia in the presence of all these eight-legged creatures, the museum says that the goal of the exhibit is to “convey how harmless and gentle these animals are and how important they are to our ecosystem.”

Several times a day, visitors get to watch the spiders being fed live crickets by museum staff. The spiders rapidly immobilize their prey inside sticky venomous silk before consuming them.

Outside the pavilion, other species like tarantulas are on display in terrariums, with museum entomologists on hand to answer questions.

The Spider Pavilion is open through Nov. 8, 10 a.m.-5:30 p.m.

Tickets are $3 for adults and $1 for children 5-12 in addition to the admission price for the museum, which is $9 for adults and $6.50 for children. Because spiders are most active in the dark, the museum is also hosting special Halloween-themed flashlight tours where visitors can watch them at night, on Oct. 10, 17 and 30, 6 p.m.-10 p.m. The museum is located at 900 Exposition Blvd., Los Angeles, www.nhm.org.

Dr. Dobson: Everyone is busy today. I don’t know any families that aren’t experiencing fatigue and time pressure.

None of us need new things to do, certainly, but I do believe it is our duty to reach out to those who are going through hard times. This is especially true of single parents because their vulnerable children are the ones who suffer.

Many years ago, my wife, Shirley, was working around the house one morning, when a knock came at the front door. When she opened it, there stood a young woman in her late teens, who called herself Sally.

“I’m selling brushes,” she said, “and I wonder if you’d like to buy any.”

Well, my wife told her she wasn’t interested in buying anything that day, and Sally said, “I know. No one else is, either.” And with that, she began to cry.

Shirley invited Sally to come in for a cup of coffee, and she asked her to share her story. She turned out to be an unmarried mother who was just struggling mightily to support her two-yearold son. That night, we went to her shabby little apartment above a garage to see how we could help this mother and her toddler. When we opened the cupboards, there was nothing there for them

to eat, and I mean nothing.

That night, they both had dined on a can of SpaghetFOCUS tiO’s. We took her to ON THE the marFAMILY ket, and we did what Dr. James we could Dobson to help get ■■■ her on her feet.

Sally is obviously not the only single mother out there who is desperately trying to survive in a very hostile world.

All of these mothers could use a little kindness – from baby-sitting to providing a meal to repairing the washing machine or even to just showing a little thoughtfulness.

Raising kids alone is like climbing a mountain a mile high. Can you find it in your heart to babysit for that single mother one afternoon a week? Or maybe you can fix extra food when you cook and take it over some evening. Imagine what that kindness will convey to a mom or dad who comes home exhausted and discovers that someone cares about his or her little family. Not only will it bring encouragement to the parent, but one or more children will bless you as well.

Migrating caribou run through field in the Porcupine River Tundra in the Yukon Territories, Canada. On the endlessly rolling and tussocky terrain of northwest Canada, where man has hunted caribou since the Stone Age, the vast antlered herds are fast growing thin.

Wildlife’s message Mighty caribou herds dwindle, warming trend blamed

BY CHARLES J. HANLEY AP SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT

ON THE PORCUPINE RIVER TUNDRA, Yukon Territory — Here on the endlessly rolling and tussocky terrain of northwest Canada, where man has hunted caribou since the Stone Age, the vast antlered herds are fast growing thin. And it’s not just here.

Across the tundra 1,500 kilometers (1,000 miles) to the east, Canada’s Beverly herd, numbering more than 200,000 a decade ago,

The decline of the caribou — called reindeer in the Eurasian Arctic — has biologists searching for clues in climate change. can barely be found today.

Halfway around the world in Siberia, the biggest aggregation of these migratory animals, of the dun-colored herds whose sweep across the Arctic’s white canvas is one of nature’s matchless wonders, has shrunk by hundreds of thousands in a few short years.

From wildlife spectacle to wildlife mystery, the decline of the caribou — called reindeer in the Eurasian Arctic — has biologists searching for clues, and finding them.

They believe the insidious impact of climate change, its tipping of natural balances and disruption of feeding habits, is decimating a species that has long numbered in the millions and supported human life in Earth’s most inhuman climate.

Many herds have lost more than half their number from the maximums of recent decades, a global survey finds. They “hover on the precipice of a major decline,” it says.

The “People of the Caribou,” the native Gwich’in of the Yukon and Alaska, were among the first to sense trouble, in the late 1990s, as their Porcupine herd dwindled. From 178,000 in 1989, the herd — named for the river crossing its range — is now estimated to number 100,000.

“They used to come through by the hundreds,” James Firth, 56, of the Gwich’in Renewable Resources Board said as he guided two Associated Press journalists across the tundra.

Off toward distant horizons this summer afternoon, only small groups of a dozen or fewer migrating caribou could be seen grazing southward across the spongy landscape, green with a layer of grasses, mosses and lichen over the Arctic permafrost.

“I’ve never seen it like this before,” Firth said of the sparse numbers.

More than 50 identifiable caribou herds migrate over huge wilderness tracts in a wide band circling the top of the world. They head north in the spring to ancient calving grounds, then back south through summer and fall to winter ranges closer to northern forests.

The Porcupine herd moves over a 250,000square-kilometer (100,000square-mile) range, calving in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, near Alaska’s north coast, where proposals for oil drilling have long stirred opposition from environmentalists seeking to protect the caribou.

The global survey by researchers at the University of Alberta, published in June in the peer-reviewed journal Global Change Biology, has deepened concerns about the caribou’s future.

Drawing on scores of other studies, government databases, wildlife management boards and other sources, the biologists found that 34 of 43 herds being monitored worldwide are in decline.

The average falloff in

A stuffed caribou displayed at the Western Arctic Regional Visitor Center in Inuvik in the Northwest Territories, Canada. numbers was 57 percent from earlier maximums, they said.

Siberia’s Taimyr herd has declined from 1 million in 2000 to an estimated 750,000, as reported in the 2008 “Arctic Report Card” of the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

The Taimyr is the world’s largest herd, but Canada and Alaska have more caribou, and the Alberta study reported that 22 of 34 North American herds are shrinking. Data were insufficient to make a judgment on seven others.

Liv Solveig Vors, the June report’s lead author, summarized what is believed behind the caribou crash: “Climate change is changing the way they’re interacting with their food, directly and indirectly.”

Global warming has boosted temperatures in the Arctic twice as much as elsewhere, and Canadian researchers say the natural balance is suffering: • Unusual freezing rains in autumn are locking lichen, the caribou’s winter forage, under impenetrable ice sheets. This was the documented cause in the late 1990s of the nearextinction of the 50,000-

strong Peary caribou subspecies on Canada’s High Arctic islands.

• Mosquitoes, flies and insect parasites have always tormented and weakened caribou, but warmer temperatures have aggravated this summertime problem, driving the animals on crazed, debilitating runs to escape, and keeping them from foraging and fattening up for winter.

• The springtime Arctic “green-up” is occurring two weeks or more earlier.

The great caribou migrations evolved over ages to catch the shrubs on the calving grounds at their freshest and most nutritious. But pregnant, migrating cows may now be arriving too late.

Vors said caribou are unlikely to adjust.

“Evolutionary changes tend to take place over longer time scales than the time scale of climate change at the moment,” she said. Climatologists foresee northern temperatures rising several degrees more this century unless global greenhouse gas emissions are sharply reduced soon.

Caribou herds have gone through boom-and-bust cycles historically, but were never known to de-

cline so uniformly worldwide. Leading Canadian specialist Don Russell, coordinator of a new global network formed to more closely monitor what’s happening to the herds, said experts are focusing on “what has changed between this decline and previous declines.”

“We’ve seen a number of areas where climate change is playing a big role, and we see some very dramatic trends,” he said in an interview in Whitehorse, the Yukon territorial capital.

In neighboring Northwest Territories, the territorial government on Sept. 24 reported results of its aerial survey of the Bathurst herd: Its population has dropped to about 32,000, from 128,000 in 2006.

“The numbers are not getting better. There’s no good news, no indication of recovery,” J. Michael Miltenberger, the environment and natural resources minister, said by telephone from Yellowknife, the capital.

He said “there’s a huge issue” with the Beverly herd, which numbered 276,000 in 1994, ranging over the Canadian tundra 1,500 kilometers (1,000 miles) due north of North Dakota.

President Barack Obama wants the federal government to set the example when it comes to global warming.

In an executive order signed earlier this month, Obama required all agencies to do what he wants companies operating power plants, running refineries and making automobiles to do: reduce heat-trapping gases.

Each federal agency will have to set the first targets for reducing climate-altering pollution from its buildings, fleets and workers’ commutes.

The agencies will have 90 days to tell the White House how they plan to measure and reduce greenhouse gases from buildings and vehicles by 2020. Targets for employees’ commutes and travel will be due June 2010.

“As the largest consumer of energy in the U.S. economy, the federal government can and should lead by example when it comes to creating innovative ways to reduce greenhouse gas emissions,” Obama said in a statement.

The government mandate comes as the Obama administration takes steps to require automakers and large industrial facilities to cut greenhouse gas emissions.

In this Jan. 31 file photo, the fuselage of the U.S. Airways jetliner that splashed down into the Hudson River is escorted by police on in Jersey City, N.J. A readersubmitted question about what happened to the plane after Capt. Chesley “Sully” Sullenberger famously landed his US Airways jet on the Hudson River on Jan. 15, is being answered as part of an Associated Press Q&A column called “Ask AP.”

Questions concern Sully’s jetliner, Somali pirates THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Capt. Chesley Sullenberger officially returned to the skies this week, eight months after he gained fame by guiding his crippled jetliner into the Hudson River in New York City without the loss of a single life.

But what about the damaged US Airways jet?

Has that been returned to service?

Curiosity about the pilot’s aircraft inspired one of the questions in this edition of “Ask AP,” a weekly Q&A column where AP journalists respond to readers’ questions about the news.

Piracy experts attribute the failure of those assaults to better vigilance aboard commercial ships as well as increased patrols and fast response times by international navies in the Gulf of Aden. The International Maritime Bureau, which monitors piracy, applauds the positive development but says navies are bracing for a “surge” in attacks in the gulf and off the east coast of Somalia.

Lincoln chief deputy ousted

BY JOE DEPRIEST AND FRANCO ORDONEZ MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE REGIONAL NEWS

LINCOLNTON – The second-ranking officer in the Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office was dismissed Monday, less than a week after being found guilty of misdemeanor obstruction of justice for helping an acquaintance get out of a drunk-driving charge.

Now a prosecutor says the district attorney is considering possible charges against the sheriff in connection with the case.

Lincoln County Manager George Wood confirmed Chief Deputy Barry Taylor’s dismissal.

Taylor has been at the center of a six-month controversy surrounding the Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office since local bloggers brought up allegations of cronyism and illegal activity at the sheriff’s office.

Sheriff Tim Daugherty came under fire when he initially pledged support of Taylor after his indictment for obstruction of justice in the 2007 traffic stop. Daugherty, facing public pressure, later sus-

pended his chief deputy with pay.

The majority of Lincoln County commissioners have since called for Daugherty to resign.

On Monday night, board chairman Alex Patton said commissioners are still waiting for an explanation.

Assistant District Attorney Gwynn Radeker said Monday night that the District Attorney’s office is looking at the possibility of filing charges against the sheriff stemming from Taylor’s case.

Radeker would not elaborate.

Yadkin board seeks hospital buyer MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE REGIONAL NEWS

YADKINVILLE – Yadkin County Commissioners moved closer to getting out of the hospital business Monday, unanimously passing a resolution seeking offers to buy Hoots Memorial Hospital.

The county will receive proposals from prospective buyers through Jan. 6.

County officials have identified 16 health-care groups that could potentially be in the market for a hospital the size of Hoots, including HMC/ CAH Consolidated Inc. HCM/CAH, based in Kansas City, took over management of the hospital April 1 after a contract with Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center expired.

Gordon Docking, chief

operating officer of Kansas-City-based HMC-CAH, said the company will put in a proposal for the hospital.

“We will pursue this process,” he said. “We think there’s good potential.”

Docking said the hospital fits in with the company’s business plan for critical-access hospitals, a federal designation for hospitals with up to 25

beds serving rural communities.

County commissioners will hold a public hearing on the resolution of intent to sell or lease the hospital at their Nov. 2 meeting.

Commission chairman Chad Wagoner said hearings are usually held before resolutions are voted upon, but in this case the county had to act according to state statutes on the sale of hospitals.

A well-spoken Jude Law charges through ‘Hamlet’

BY MICHAEL KUCHWARA AP DRAMA CRITIC

N

EW YORK – Jude Law’s Hamlet does not go quietly into the night.

He rants. He rails. He seizes Shakespeare’s most famous play by its well-known soliloquies and doesn’t let go. The actor’s turbocharged performance as the anguished Danish prince is not particularly subtle, but it’s wellspoken and clear. And eminently watchable.

Sort of like the rest of the stylish Donmar Warehouse production of “Hamlet,” which arrived last week

on Broadway after engagements in London and Denmark’s Elsinore Castle (the actual setting of the play).

That clarity of storytelling is an advantage in a production that runs more than three hours. But then director Michael Grandage has not loaded down the play with gimmicks that distract from the lengthy tale.

Text is all. First-timers will have no trouble following the plot.

Law’s Hamlet is a man outraged, a quality he lets no one else on stage forget – whether this hotheaded young man is admonishing Gertrude, his mother; spewing venom at Claudius, his usurping uncle; mock-

ing the befuddled royal confidant Polonius; or lasciviously attacking the benighted Ophelia, his true love.

That outrage rarely disappears, except perhaps when he is confronting the ghost of his murdered father (played by the vocally plummy Peter Eyre) or examining the skull of the long-departed Yorick, his father’s court jester.

Law’s performance is also very physical – and not just during his big showdown with Laertes, Ophelia’s avenging brother, at the end of the evening. He prowls the nearly empty stage of the Broadhurst Theatre as if he were a man possessed.

In this publicity image released by Sony/Legacy Records, musician Miles Davis is shown during a recording session in 1959 for “Kind of Blue.”

‘Kind of Blue’ at 50: Behind Davis’ masterpiece

BY CHARLES J.GANS ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER

N

EW YORK – Jimmy Cobb could hardly imagine he would be making history when he arrived at Columbia Records’ 30th Street Studio 50 years ago for the first of two recording sessions with Miles Davis.

“I was always enthusiastic about making records with Miles,” said Cobb, who got to the studio before the other musicians to set up his drum kit. “I wasn’t told anything about what the music was going to be.”

Cobb ended up being part of the all-star sextet, plus one, that recorded “Kind of Blue,” an album Quincy Jones and many others consider to be “one of the greatest records ever made.”

Since its August 1959 release, “Kind of Blue” has ranked as one of the most influential and popular jazz albums ever with more than 4 million copies sold in the U.S. alone, according to the Recording Industry Association of America – and has recently been reissued in deluxe box sets to mark its 50th anniversary.

But in 1959, Cobb – the last surviving musician in a group that included saxophonists John Coltrane and Julian “Cannonball” Adderley, pianists Bill Evans and Wynton Kelly, and bassist Paul Chambers – regarded it “as just another Miles Davis record date.”

“It was relaxed and the guys always had fun around each other,” said Cobb. “It had to be the talent, the music, the studio ... I don’t know how that magic happens but

it happened those two days.”

Jones, who as a young trumpeter in the ’50s was heavily influenced by his close friend Davis, considers “Kind of Blue” a culmination of a golden era in jazz that began in the late ’40s with the bebop revolution launched

by Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie. At the same time, the album foretold the new sounds that would emerge in the ’60s.

“It’s a record that sounds like it was made yesterday. It’s as hip as anything on the planet,” said Jones. “It’s the accumulation of everything that ... modern jazz is about.

“I have given away hundreds of copies to kids all over the world and said, ‘I want you to treat this like orange juice, listening to it every morning.’ ”

ASHINGTON (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; You canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see it, but thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a quiet cultural revolution under way at the White House.

The Obamas are decorating their private spaces with more modern and abstract artwork than has ever hung on the White House walls.

New pieces by contemporary African-American and Native American artists are on display.

Bold colors, odd shapes, squiggly lines have arrived. So, too, have some obscure artifacts, such as patent models for a gear cutter and a steamboat paddlewheel, that now sit in the Oval Office.

Works by big names from the modern art world â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Jasper Johns and Mark Rothko â&#x20AC;&#x201C; are rubbing shoulders with lesserknown artists such as Alma Thomas, an AfricanAmerican abstract painter of the 1960s and 1970s.

Thomasâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; â&#x20AC;&#x153;Watusi (Hard Edge)â&#x20AC;? now hangs in the East Wing, where Michelle Obama has her offices.

Levi Johnston to pose for Playgirl ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Levi Johnston is going for the ultimate exposure â&#x20AC;&#x201C; his bare body.

Posing nude for Playgirl is next for the 19-year-old father of Sarah Palinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s grandchild. Johnstonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s attorney, Rex Butler, said Wednesday that a formal agreement has

not been reached with the online magazine but adds itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a â&#x20AC;&#x153;foregone conclusionâ&#x20AC;? it will happen.

Johnston fathered a child with Bristol, the 18-year-old daughter of Sarah Palin, the former Republican vice presidential candidate and former Alaska governor.

Glenn Ligonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Black Like Me No. 2,â&#x20AC;? a Hirshhorn loan now hanging in the first familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s living quarters, is a â&#x20AC;&#x153;text paintingâ&#x20AC;? that reproduces words from the 1961 book â&#x20AC;&#x153;Black Like Me,â&#x20AC;? a nonfiction account by a white man who disguised himself as a black man and traveled through the South.

Ligon, a black artist from Brooklyn in New York, said in an interview the paintingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s theme fits with President Barack Obamaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s efforts to create a dialogue between the races. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a really important part of what heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about and symbolically what heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s done,â&#x20AC;?

Ligon said, adding that it was â&#x20AC;&#x153;intensely flatteringâ&#x20AC;? for the Obamas to want his painting to hang in their private spaces.

The Obamas got to work selecting new artwork for the White House even before the inauguration and had the first pieces installed on Day One. Other pieces have arrived only in recent weeks. And thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a Rothko piece â&#x20AC;&#x201C; â&#x20AC;&#x153;No. 17 (or) No. 15â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; in limbo; they havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t quite decided what to do with it.

Working with California decorator Michael Smith and White House curator William Allman, the Obamas have borrowed dozens of works from various Washington museums and galleries, being sure to use only items that werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t already on display. Other recent first families hung a few modern pieces in their living quarters, but none approached the scope of the Obamas, Allman said.

Smith ferried lists back and forth between the White House and the galleries and museums as the Obamas narrowed down their choices. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The first lady had clear ideas about what they were aiming for,â&#x20AC;?

Allman said.

Annual fundraiser benefits education in Carolinas SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE

CHARLOTTE – Allen Tate Company (www.allentate.com), the Carolinas’ leading real estate company, has raised more than $1 million for public education organizations through its annual FUNDay event.

To outsiders, Allen Tate FUNDay might seem like a bunch of Realtors getting together to socialize, dance, and play golf, tennis and bridge. But to thousands of students enrolled in public

schools across the Carolinas, FUNDay means programs, activities, field trips, computers, school supplies and more.

On Sept. 21, more than 500 Allen Tate Realtors from the Charlotte, Triad, Triangle and Upstate regions gathered at The Point Lake & Golf Club on Lake Norman for the company’s 12th Annual FUNDay public education fundraiser.

The “day of play,” where participants pay an entry fee to participate in individual ac-

tivities, resulted in more than $97,000 in proceeds. Silent, live and online auctions brought in additional funds.

“We’re so pleased to announce that the money raised from this year’s FUNDay has put us over the $1 million mark. We’ve raised more than $1,034,000 since we began FUNDay 12 years ago. And that money is returned directly to public education organizations in the communities where our Realtors live and work,” said

Pat Riley, president, Allen Tate Company.

“Allen Tate Company is passionate about public education and understands its critical importance to quality of life and economic development in our communities. I’m always humbled by the generosity of our Realtors when it comes to supporting this very worthy cause, but especially this year, with the current economy,” added Riley.

As members of the community and as real estate profes-

sionals, Allen Tate Realtors are keenly aware of the importance of solid, successful public school systems. Consumers seek information from their Realtor about local schools, perhaps more than any other criteria, when making home-buying and relocation decisions.

FUNDay gives everyone at Allen Tate a chance to directly impact the local school system and organizations committed to quality education in the areas the Allen Tate Company serves.

First-time Homebuyer Tax Credit proves successful

T

he High Point Regional Association Realtors Presidential Advisory Group, (PAG), recently surveyed its real estate company members and found that the $8,000 First-time Homebuyer Tax Credit has been extremely successful in stimulating our local housing market.

This PAG reported that the tax credit was the single-largest factor motivating 42 percent of sales from January to May 2009. The average price of these transactions was $122,500. While the tax credit has helped stimulate our market, the PAG report found that real estate agent members feel more support is needed and that the market will decline if the tax credit is allowed to expire on Nov. 30, 2009.

The PAG report concluded extending and/or expanding the credit are very important in the ongoing recovery effort. The housing REAL ESTATE stimulus is having its desired effect on Jeannene first-time homebuyPoarch ers, but more needs ■■■ to be done to lure “trade-up” buyers back to the market. Boosting sales among existing owners as opposed to just first time buyers will spur more sales because each transaction will involve two home sales.

It is providing a stimulus to our economy in general and housing in

particular. Direct beneficiaries are Realtors and the many employers and employees of ancillary service vendors that directly benefit from real estate sales, such as furniture, painters, plumbers, electricians, roofers, general contractors, landscape services, painting, movers, etc.

Will you join your local Realtors in supporting bill HR 2801 before the House Ways and Means committee now called the Home Ownership Moves the Economy (HOMES) Act? Contact your local U.S. representatives to let them know you support extending and increasing the tax credit to all homebuyers. This call to action is vital to stabilizing the national economy.

T

he insurance company manager had lived in a four-bedroom ranch house just a couple of years before he got the itch to buy a bigger, fancier place. So when he spotted a stately Federal-style house he liked, he grabbed it, negotiating a 10 percent discount off its appraised value. It was his third move in less than a decade.

“Some people just have a strong wanderlust. They possess an urge to move often. This is all the more tempting now because many homes are priced so reasonably,” says Sid Davis, author of “A Survival Guide for Buying a Home,” and the real estate broker who represented the buyer.

Davis says the motivation to move often is typically driven by “status seeking.”

“People who are doing well in their careers often seek more luxurious quarters,” he says.

Tom Early, a broker and former president of the National Association of Exclusive Buyer Agents (www.naeba. org), estimates that 10 to 20 percent of the population would like to make a housing move every five years or so if they could afford to do so. But not all of what he calls “itchers” can move that often.

“Right now lots of folks just don’t have the equity to sell and trade up,” Early says. “Also, fears about job security are restraining other people.”

Obviously, a stable financial situation is a necessary prerequisite for any move-up housing plan. You’ll want to know you can meet the monthly hurdle of higher housing payments if you choose to trade houses. Here are pointers for those who can afford to make such a move: • Ask yourself why you want to change homes.

Many people have practical reasons for seeking to move after a short tenure in their present home. For instance, young families often need an extra bedroom when they have another child. Or older couples may wish to move near their elderly parents.

But others, known in real estate circles as “serial homebuyers,” are driven solely by the thrill of finding a better space.

“These repeat homebuyers get the same excitement from buying a different house that other people get from buying a new car – just because it’s bright, shiny and smells good,” Early says.

But his years as a veteran real estate broker have taught Early that “the grass isn’t always greener on the far side of the hill,” and some people are disappointed when a housing move doesn’t yield the satisfaction they’d expected.

• Make sure your spouse or partner

also wants to move soon.

Those sharing a household aren’t always in sync on their housing plans.

One person may resist making another move, particularly if the couple has lived in their current REAL ESTATE home for a relatively short period.

“It happens quite often Ellen that the wife is gung ho Martin to move and the man just ■■■ drags his feet. Or vice versa,” Early says.

Unfortunately, pressuring an unwilling partner to move before he or she is ready can create serious strife for a couple.

“It’s not worth putting your relationship in jeopardy over a house,” Early says.

• Determine the true worth of your present home before deciding to move.

A segment of the population owns their homes “free and clear,” meaning they have no mortgage. But others, including many who move often, have little or no equity, which makes it tough for them to move.

If you’re unclear how much you could obtain in proceeds from the sale of your present property, Early encourages you to garner the opinions of three local real estate agents in your area. Then study their estimates before making a final determination on whether to attempt a move.

He also advocates that most trade-up buyers, except those with sufficient cash to buy another home without first selling their current one, sell first before putting an offer on another place.

“You lose a lot of bargaining power if you make your sales contract for your next house conditional on selling your current one. That’s because sellers don’t like conditional contracts. They want a bird in the hand,” Early says.

• Take your dreams into account when charting your housing plans.

On one level, it’s critically important that you approach a trade-up move as a business transaction. Clearly, it’s unwise to put yourself in a financial position that could one day force you to surrender your home through foreclosure.

Yet on another level, housing decisions should also be grounded in the subjective because obviously there’s no point to buying any house you don’t like, Early says.

“When you walk into the right house, you should get those warm, fuzzy feelings of recognition all over. If you don’t feel those emotions, just keep looking until you do,” he says.

Real estate auction set for Greensboro SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE

GREENSBORO – Commercial real estate users and investors who have been searching for bargain acquisition opportunities in North Carolina may have their chance Oct. 28 in Greensboro.

At least 12 Triad Area office/warehouse units will be offered at absolute auction, without reserve and regardless of price.

The sale will be conducted by Chartwell Auctions, Gordon J. Greene, Broker and Auctioneer in cooperation with locally operated Brown Investment Properties. Rather than sell these assets slowly over a period of months, multiple ownerships have decided on this onetime only sale, passing substantial savings to the successful bidder at auction.

Properties to be included in the Oct. 28th Greensboro real estate auction will include: • Guilford Jamestown Business Park, located at 616-624 Guilford College Rd. in Greensboro. The business park is situated at the intersection of Guilford College Rd. and I-40 at Exit 213, just three miles from Piedmont Triad International Airport and eight miles from Downtown Greensboro. 24 office/warehouse units ranging from 751 square feet to 6002 square feet will be offered individually at the auction – 13 of the 24 units are income producing with scheduled annual rents up to $68,356.

Most units offer a combination of both office and warehouse space with ceiling heights from 8 to 18 feet. Seven of the commercial units include drive-in or dock-high doors.

The properties are zoned Light Industrial, offering an array of potential office, warehousing, manufacturing and retail uses.

At least 12 of the 24 commercial units will be offered Absolute, without reserve and regardless of price.

Suggested opening bids start at $15,000 for select condominiums. Seller financing will be available to all purchasers at Guilford Jamestown Business Park with a 30 percent down payment at 6 percent interest.

• Glenwood Point Apartments are located in northwest Charlotte, just off I-85, exit 35, approximately 2.5 miles from downtown Charlotte.

The Glenwood Point Apartments feature 98 units that are currently 86 percent occupied with scheduled rents up to $700/month. The apartments are offered subject to a published reserve price of only $1,295,000. Family relocation forces this immediate sale.

Jason Dolph, Manager of the Chartwell Auctions Charlotte office, stated, “This may be a once in a lifetime opportunity to purchase quality office/warehouse space in Greensboro through an absolute real estate auction that allows the market to completely determine the price for property. I expect we are going to see many substantial bargains at this auction on Oct. 28th in Greensboro.”

The auction begins at 1 p.m. at the Clarion Hotel Greensboro Airport, 415 Swing Rd. For a free color brochure with terms of sale for all properties, call Jason Dolph with Chartwell Auctions at 704831-8983.
