HIGH POINT – Rain and gray skies greeted marketgoers who began their business on Thursday morning, two days before the fall High Point Market officially kicks off. Major showrooms began to open and furniture industry professionals flooded into the city’s downtown streets Thursday.

Becky Matamoros opened Carolina Rivers of Art LLC, an unconventional showroom at Hamilton Square that displays paintings, pottery and sculptures created by North Carolina artists. “A lot of people have lived here all of their lives and don’t understand how to show at the market.

There is nothing coming from China that is more beautiful than these pieces,” she said about the artwork. To celebrate the High Point Market’s 100th birthday, Mayor Becky Smothers and members of the High Point City Council unveiled an anniversary marker in front of the Best Western High Point, the site of the first formal Southern Furniture Market in 1909. Buyers and exhibitors say they expect business to continue to increase today and tomorrow when the market officially opens.

HIGH POINT – High Point University will not accept ownership of the Wesleyan Homes apartments until all of the 80 residents have been relocated, a top campus official said Thursday. The university bought from Providence Place the government-subsidized apartment complex, located at 900 Eastchester Drive, last week for an undisclosed price, along with the neighboring Wesleyan Arms assisted-living facility. HPU wants to renovate the properties for as many as 250 student residences. The Wesleyan Homes apartments had been targeted for renovation and student occupation by next fall. “Prior to the sale of the property, the university was not aware of all of the issues that these residents would have to confront. High Point University cares deeply about these individuals, and we want to ensure that their needs will be met satisfactorily. We want to be as cooperative as possible with these residents and their families,” said Don Scarborough, HPU vice president for community relations. Several elderly residents and some of their children complained that they were not given enough time to find new places to live. “I have started looking for my mother and other friends I have there, but there is not that much available,” Tina Hilliard said this week. “Someone needs to step in. They need more time.” Tom Higgins, Providence Place CEO, said last week that Providence Place will do as much as possible to help Wesleyan Homes resi-

WINSTON-SALEM – Since Dell Inc. announced last week it will close its Triad desktop computer manufacturing plant and put 905 people out of paychecks, observers have asked if there were options to keep the operation going. Could the Texas-based computer conglomerate have shifted production to laptops, a more popular consumer item? Could Dell have taken advantage of its record state and local incentives package to weather the recession a little longer until desktop orders picked up? Perhaps an answer to the puzzle can be found in two sentences in

a petition filed this week with the U.S. Department of Labor. The Trade Adjustment Assistance Act petition would permit Dell’s Winston-Salem workers to receive additional unemployment benefits because their jobs were lost to foreign competition. The petition states: “Our (Dell’s) work volume is being transferred to a global manufacturing network. The work will be given to thirdparty providers who operate in Mexico and other countries around the globe.” Mexican labor costs basically are 10 percent of U.S. costs, according to information through the American Manufacturing Trade Action Coalition (AMTAC)

in Washington. Labor costs in China, where most major furniture manufacturers have relocated from the Triad this decade, can be 5 percent to 8 percent of American labor costs, AMTAC reports. Five years ago when Dell committed to North Carolina, state officials and business leaders expressed hope that a high-tech company would weather offshoring pressures better than furniture and textile operators, which eliminated tens of thousands of manufacturing jobs in the Piedmont by shifting overseas. Dell serves as a sobering example that no type of manufacturing is immune to offshoring pressures. “The closings of hundreds of textile and furniture factories were

Some exhibitors opened early in order to “get to the buyers first,” according to Don Cox, sales manager with Temple Furniture. “We want to be ready to secure buyers before others,” he said. “We’re very optimistic.” Showers dampened the skies for most of the day, which doesn’t help the overall mood of the market, Cox added. “It’s hard to get a feel for market this early, especially with the rain outside,” he said. Several exhibitors in Center Point also opened to give an early welcome to buyers. “If (buyers) are going to be coming in early, we will absolutely

State, Winston-Salem and Forsyth County officials were concerned about competition from other states when recruiting the Dell plant earlier this decade, said Greg LeRoy, executive director for the group Good Jobs First in Washington. But all along, the greatest threat was from overseas, said LeRoy, who’s written about the Dell experience in North Carolina. “For manufacturing of all kinds, the issue for the state today is globalization,” LeRoy said. pjohnson@hpe.com | 888-3528

Officials: Dow Jones performance could benefit market

Board hires county attorney BY DAVID NIVENS ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

GUILFORD COUNTY – After months of wrangling and searching, commissioners hired a county attorney Thursday. Commissioners will pay former Johnston County Attorney Mark Payne $145,000 a year to lead the county’s legal department. Payne eventually will replace a Greensboro law firm that had handled county legal affairs for the past few months. The Board of Commissioners voted 9-0 to hire Payne who also has worked on the state attorney general’s staff. He has expertise in civil rights

Commissioners wrangled for months over whether to use a law firm or an individual county attorney. Nexsen Pruet lawyers Steve Coles and Steve Hedges took most of the county’s work for as much as $275 per hour. Later commissioners hired the Asheville-based search firm Young & Associates to seek out candidates to fill the county’s attorney position. “I think we have somebody now to take us to the next level,” said Democratic Commissioner Kirk Perkins, chairman of the county attorney search committee.

Business starts early. 1A BY PAM HAYNES ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – Declining furniture and retail sales may have indicated a dreary outlook for the fall High Point Market, but a barrier broken by the Dow Jones Industrial this week could lift some spirits, officials said. The Dow closed above 10,000 for the first time in nearly a year on Wednesday, breaking a number that many consider to be a psychological marker. “Some values of the Dow are psychologically more important than others, and 10,000 is seen as a turning point,” said Mike McCully, associate professor of economics at High Point University. The Dow closed at 10,062.94 on Thursday, up 47.08 points from Wednesday. The stock market victory comes days before the official opening of the fall High Point Mar-

Trinity candidates discuss city’s future BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

TRINITY – Questions on Trinity’s future highlighted a candidates forum Thursday night hosted by the Archdale-Trinity Chamber of Commerce. Held at Trinity City Hall and moderated by the League of Women Voters of the Piedmont Triad, about 50 Trinity residents watched candidates for Trinity’s mayoral and City Council discuss their vision for the future. Mayoral candidates Fran Andrews, Carlton Boyles and Kelly Grooms attended the forum. City Council candidates Kristen Varner, Barry Lambeth, Karen Bridges, Mike Robertson and Robin Russell also were present. Thomas Johnson and Debra Frazier, both running for City Council, were not present On Trinity’s future, Andrews, the city’s mayor seeking re-election, said she would like to see a hotel, grocery store and business offices along N.C. 62. Andrews said she would like for the city to have a park and more rec-

reation in five years. As long-term goals, Andrews said she supports having sewer for all residents, a permanent city hall and a Trinity police department. Grooms, a Ward 1 councilman who has launched a write-in campaign, said he would like the city to support existing businesses and have partnerships with Thomasville and Archdale. Grooms also would like to see a distribution center at the Turnpike Industrial Park locate in Trinity in 10 years. Andrews and Grooms agreed that the city needs trash and recycling curbside service. Carlton Boyles, a candidate for mayor who previously served on City Council, said he would like residents to guide the future of the city as opposed to the City Council making all the decisions. Varner, who is running for Ward 1, said she would like to see Trinity have a farmer’s market. Russell, a Ward 3 candidate, pointed to where the City Council had placed restrictions on residents, such as banning the parking of trac-

tor-trailers in residential areas. Russell said the restrictions were put on truckers improperly because the city did not give proper notification on the tractor-trailer ordinance. “This council needs to take responsibility for how they vote,” Russell said. “The citizens need to know their stance. “ Robertson, a Ward 3 candidate, said she would like to protect Trinity’s small town atmosphere. Bridges, an incumbent who serves Ward 3, echoed those remarks by saying she would like to preserve the natural landscape of Trinity. She also would like the city to have a waste treatment plant. Lambeth, an incumbent who serves Ward 2, said the city needs to plan for development. He also believes the city shouldn’t place restrictions so tightly that people don’t want to come to Trinity. Lambeth also agreed that Trinity should work with neighboring municipalities.

ARCHDALE – The city of Archdale reported a sewer spill of 40,000 gallons Thursday that entered into a tributary of Muddy Creek near N.C. 62. Jerry Yarborough, Archdale’s city manager, said roots grew into a sewer line, causing wastewater to enter into the Green Oak tributary of Muddy Creek on Wednesday. According to Yarborough, roots have a tendency to grow into lines, forming a big ball and blocking the line completely – just as the case with Archdale’s sewer spill. City officials found out about the spill from an Archdale resident who complained of an odor. “The call came into one of our staff members,” Yarbor-

Trinity’s ‘Vision Plan’ is backward thinking

I have just received a fall issue of the Trinity Connection newsletter. This issue shows a proposed “Vision Plan” featuring a walkable main street and shopping. The article includes a drawing to show what the 21st century vision for Old Town in Trinity should look like. The drawing shows a row of nondescript, “low-scale buildings that could be a mix of one- or two-story with a variety of facades and roof forms.” The article says that this “new village center can be created that would be the envy of the surrounding communities with its ambiance and character.” The location will be N.C. 62 from Trinity College Road toward Meadowbrook Road. To me, this “Vision” drawing looks almost identical to almost any other small town in North Carolina. I do not see what is to be envied if we are talking about something for the future. At the current time, we have already created a lot of traffic on N.C. 62 through Trinity. The next priority should be to widen N.C. 62 and design plans that will speed traffic through this corridor and alleviate traffic problems that will be caused by more develop-

ment in the Old Town area. This plan will slow down traffic and be a bottleneck. Designs for any city of the future should plan for much, much higher speed and efficiency of traffic and newer, more advanced modes of vehicular traffic.

YOUR VIEW POLL

OUR VIEW

uring the coming week in High Point, there will be plenty of looking back and looking forward. That’s because the world’s largest home furnishings show will continue celebrating its 100th anniversary during this fall 2009 edition of the High Point Market. The looking back will produce a sense of pride and accomplishment in how far the market has come in its first 100 years. The looking forward – still strongly impacted by the national and world economic downturn – will spawn cautiousness, but also a real sense of optimism because of improvement in some economic indicators. On Thursday, officials of the city and the High Point Market Authority, along with others, marked the market’s past as they unveiled a historical marker on S. Main Street commemorating the first formal market held here in March 1909. Sunday night, the High Point Market Authority is sponsoring a Centennial Celebration open to marketgoers. As for looking to the future with a sense of optimism, Market Authority President Brian Casey has noted that a number of retailers who had skipped recent markets here are returning this fall. And others in the business, such as Lisa Shankle of Hamilton Properties, are reporting more positive outlooks and less doom and gloom among those in the industry compared to recent markets. Additionally, we can only be happy about two ventures opening for this market – Arts on Main, a jazz club, and 100 High, a light dining and entertainment spot for marketgoers in the former location of the J. Basul Noble restaurant that closed last summer. Arts on Main is a fundraising project of the High Point Area Arts Council, but arts council members’ eyes are set on the jazz club becoming a permanent fixture downtown year-round. That is exactly the kind of entertainment venue needed downtown to serve marketgoers, but also to bring High Point area folks downtown all year long. The concept behind 100 High also is solid. Its prime purpose, as a temporary operation, is to serve market visitors. More such venues are needed downtown during market. More also are needed in a revitalized downtown area to stimulate business and tourism traffic during off market times. ... But that’s a topic for another day. For the next week, the High Point Market gets everyone’s focus. We’re glad you’re all here.

Political ‘magic numbers’ figure in health care debate

I

t is understandable that many people do not pay nearly as much attention to political issues as they do to practical decisions that they have to make in their own lives. For one thing, they have only one vote among millions, so their influence on what policies the government will follow is in no way comparable to the weight of their decisions in their own personal affairs. One consequence is that politicians can get away with half-baked arguments that people would never accept in their personal lives, where they apply a lot more scrutiny. People who would never let some highpressure salesman rush them into signing a contract to buy a car, before they have a chance to read the contract, may see nothing wrong with a president of the United States trying to rush Congress into passing a thousand-page bill before anybody has a chance to read it all. Numbers, as well as words, get more scrutiny in private life than in political issues. Politicians love to cite magic numbers that are supposed to tell us whether some policy is a “good thing” or not. By sheer repetition, it is claimed that bigger numbers mean better results, whether the number is the percentage of families that own their own homes or the miles per gallon that automobiles get. One of the magic numbers popular in politics is the average miles per gallon of gas that cars are supposed to get, in order to meet standards set by the government. No matter how big this number gets, it can always get bigger, so there is no logical stopping place – which means a never-ending political crusade to increase that magic number. The open-endedness of magic numbers is not their only problem. The more fundamental problem is that the costs entailed by a magic number are often either ignored or downplayed. More miles per gallon, for example, are usually achieved by having lighter cars – and lighter cars mean less protection from the consequences of automobile accidents. Bluntly, it means more severe injuries and death.

The magic number du jour is the number of Americans without health insurance. Apparently getting more people insured is another “good thing” – which is to say, it is something whose costs are not to be weighed against the OPINION benefits, or whose costs are to be finessed aside with optimisThomas tic projections or a claim that Sowell these costs can be covered by ■■■ eliminating “waste, fraud and abuse.” In real life, people weigh one thing against another. But in politics one declares one thing to be imperative, so the issue then becomes how we do it. In real life, all sorts of desirable things are not done, either because of other desirable things that would have to be sacrificed to do it or because of the dangers incurred in achieving the desired objective are worse than the problem we want to solve. Almost never are the dangers of having uninsured people weighed against the dangers of having government bureaucrats over-ruling doctors and deciding whether money would be better spent saving the life of an elderly person or paying for an abortion for some teenager. The crowning irony is that the problems caused by insurance companies refusing to pay for certain medications or treatment are to be solved by giving government bureaucrats that same power, along with the power to prevent patients from using their own money to pay for those same medications or treatments. More than two centuries ago, Edmund Burke said, “Nothing is good but in proportion” – that is, when weighed as a trade-off. But a prudent weighing of trade-offs does not produce the political melodrama of pursuing a “good thing” measured by some magic number.

Quick accord sought on Iran’s uranium export

PARIS – World powers want Iran to agree quickly to the export of low-enriched uranium to Russia for further enrichment as it would reduce the risk of the material going for nuclear weapons, France’s Foreign Ministry said Thursday. Talks are to be at the heart of discussions during a meeting in Vienna on Monday between the United States, Russia, France, Iran and experts from the U.N. nuclear watchdog.

Turkey: 33 suspected of attacks detained

ANKARA, Turkey – Turkish police detained Thursday more than 30 suspects allegedly linked to the al-Qaida terror network, saying they were planning to stage attacks on NATO facilities as well as U.S. and Israeli missions in the country. Anti-terrorism police detained the suspects in simultaneous raids in the cities of Van, Erzurum, Konya, Batman and Istanbul.

N. Korea: Naval actions could spark clash

SEOUL, South Korea – North Korea warned South Korea on Thursday that a spate of incursions along their disputed sea border could spark a naval clash, in what analysts said was a threat to reinflame tensions if it doesn’t get what it wants from recent conciliatory gestures. After months of provocations including nuclear and missile tests, North Korea has recently reached out to Seoul and Washington.

Israel chides Turkey over TV series

JERUSALEM – An Israeli foreign ministry official rebuked Turkey’s acting ambassador Thursday over a TV series Israel says depicts Israeli soldiers murdering children. Naor Gilon, deputy director for the Western Europe desk, says he told Turkish envoy Ceylan Ozen the series was “incitement� and could spark attacks against Jews visiting Turkey.

RALEIGH (AP) – A cadre of murderers and rapists, several of whom victimized young girls, will be set free from North Carolina prisons this month after state courts agreed that a decades-old law defined life sentences as only 80 years long. Dozens more inmates could be released in the coming months unless the state can figure out a legal recourse to keep them behind bars, officials said Thursday. Gov. Beverly Perdue called them “dangerous criminals� who have repeatedly been denied parole. “I’m appalled that the state of North Carolina is being forced to release prisoners who have committed the most heinous of crimes, without any review of their cases,� Perdue said in a statement. One of the 20 inmates set for release, Bobby Bowden, had argued that a law adopted in 1974 clearly defined life sentences as just 80 years. The convicted murder believed that the statute, combined with good conduct credits, means his life sentence is now complete. The Court of Appeals sided with Bowden last year. North Carolina’s Supreme Court rejected an appeal from the state earlier this month after a lawyer from the attorney general’s office had argued that the 80-year figure was ambiguous and likely meant to determine when somebody would be eligible for parole. Justices on the high court balked at that argument, and an attorney for Bowden called it “legal gymnastics.�

Amphitheater debuts New structure dedicated in Thomasville BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

THOMASVILLE – Sue Hunter remembers the day in 1967 when she and her late husband Dr. Jim Hunter decided to move to the Chair City. On a tour of the city by Dr. George Highsmith, the two were then told Thomasville is a “very ugly town, but the people are nice.” Wanting to do their part to clean up the town, the two decided to move to Thomasville. “Jim and I talked it over and we decided that we might not be able to change the people, so we would go with nice people but we could change the looks,” Hunter said. Five years after Dr. Jim Hunter passed, his wife recently found a way to honor her husband by donating funds to build Thomasville’s new amphitheater. During a dedication of the Hunter Family Amphitheater Thursday, Hunter said her husband, a Chair City physician of 37 years and former Thomasville councilman, would be “proud to have his name” on the amphitheater. “I hope this will be a real asset for everyone in every walk of life to enjoy in some way,” Hunter said. Members of People Achieving Community Enhancement, a city committee, have been planning since April to build the amphitheater and a park in the former Belk parking lot near Memorial Park in downtown Thomasville. The group recently

School vaccine clinics ruled out BY DAVID NIVENS ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

GUILFORD COUNTY – There won’t be enough H1N1 vaccine available in the next few weeks to offer shot clinics at public schools, health officials said Thursday. Health officials had considered offering the clinics as the number of swine flu cases increased, but federal officials have not shipped enough at one time to offer “mass” clinics, said Guilford County Medical Director Dr. Ward Robinson. “We would have to stockpile thousands of vaccines for that,” Robinson said. “We want to distribute it to pregnant women and children as fast as we can. We should not sit on it.” So far, the agency has offered 2,100 nasal-mist vaccines only to children. Robinson said he expected to see shipments of injectable vaccines arrive in the next week. Many children require two vaccine doses, a few weeks apart. “When the second shot time comes, we hope to have the second dose,” Robinson said. “But we want everyone covered with one first.” Health experts say eventually there will be enough swine flu vaccine available for everyone. Robinson said he expects future shipments to be mostly injectable vaccines. Meanwhile, the number of swine flu cases continues to rise. Moses Cone Memorial Hospital reported 206 cases this week, up from 174 last week. The number of flu cases has tripled to more than 1,600 in the Guilford County Schools,

The health department and many other agencies have exhausted supplies of seasonal flu vaccines for adults. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends an annual seasonal flu vaccination for all children from 6 months through 18 years of age. In addition to getting a seasonal flu shot, health experts recommend that people wash their hands frequently, cover their sneezes and stay home when sick. dnivens@hpe.com | 888-3626

HIGH POINT – A college student killed during a confrontation with Archdale police over the summer was shot four times after officers thought he was reaching for a gun, according to reports released Thursday by the North Carolina Office of the Chief Medical Examiner. An autopsy report noted gunshot wounds to Courtland Benjamin Smith’s abdomen, back, thigh and arm that proved fatal for the 21-year-old UNC Chapel Hill junior and Delta Kappa Epsilon fraternity president after an Aug. 23 traffic stop on Interstate 85 in Randolph County. Two Archdale officers stopped Smith’s 2004 Toyota SUV after he called 911 asking for police assistance and telling a dispatcher he was suicidal, armed with a 9 mm pistol and driving drunk at speeds of up to 110 mph. Smith “got out of the car and made a suggestive move toward his pocket which the police interpreted as a move to get a gun,” according to a medical examiner’s report released with the autopsy findings. Officer Jeremy Paul Flinchum then fired on

A recording of Smith’s 911 call ends with an officer yelling for him to stay in his car before Smith tells police he had to “pull something out.” It remains unclear from the tape as well as police radio traffic recordings whether Smith displayed a weapon to officers. Authorities have not said whether he was armed and the reports released Thursday do not say whether Smith had a gun. A recording of the traffic stop from dashboard video cameras in two police cars has been sealed by a judge pending the completion of a N.C. State Bureau of Investigation probe into the shooting. Smith, who was from Houston, “had commented to friends (on the day he died) and before about possible suicidal ideas,” the medical examiner’s report stated. Toxicology tests revealed that the alcohol content of his blood was .22 percent, confirming that he was intoxicated at the time of his death, according to the autopsy report. pkimbrough@hpe.com | 888-3531

Eleanor Chittum is shown at a retirement home in Winston-Salem. She has spent a year-and-a-half in court fighting a debt she says she doesn’t owe.

States raise limits on creditors as debtors squirm WINSTON-SALEM (AP) – With many Americans in dire financial straits, states are cracking down to make sure aggressive debt collectors target only people who legitimately owe them money. National consumer credit laws already prohibit collection agencies from harassing, deceptive, or unfair practices like telling neighbors or family about what is owed, or calling before 8 a.m. or late at night. Since the recession started, at least a half-dozen states have adopted additional limits, like imposing statutes of limitation on collections and adding opportunities to punish abusive practices in court. Other states may follow suit. Lawmakers are increasingly focusing on outfits that buy bad debt from credit card companies and other lenders for pennies on the dollar and profit when they collect more than they paid. A North Carolina law that took effect this month requires debt buyers filing collection lawsuits to produce documents proving they’re the ones owed the money. Trying to collect on a debt that a company should reasonably know is invalid could lead to lawsuits and civil penalties of up to $4,000 per violation. North Carolina At-

GOP wants formal probe of Perdue campaign RALEIGH (AP) – State Republicans are asking the North Carolina State Board of Elections to investigate Gov. Beverly Perdue’s campaign and why it reported some campaign flights only recently. Republican Party chairman Tom Fetzer said Thursday he has written elections board leaders seeking a formal investigation into Perdue’s committee and the state Democratic Party. Fetzer said he wanted to make sure elections officials looked closely at 17 private flights.

torneNorth Carolina’s law came too late to help Eleanor Chittum, 63, who now lives in a Winston-Salem convalescent home. Her records showed she owed $1,439 to Direct Merchants Credit Card Bank on a Visa card, but paid off that account by transferring it to another card. She was stunned when a collection company contacted her to say she owed $1,800. “Then they sent me a bill for that amount, and I said, ‘Why do I owe that? I paid it off,”’ Chittum said. “I was shocked to see this bill come in like that.” A North Carolina company called Brock and Scott Holdings Inc. filed a lawsuit in late 2007 saying Chittum owed them the original amount plus interest. The company’s lawyer said it wasn’t required to prove from the outset that Chittum owed the debt, just that its records were kept properly. Under the new state law, it would have had to document that she owed the money. “If she owes the debt, she’ll pay it. We’ve tried for a year and a half to get them to prove that she owes the debt,” said Charles F. Hall IV, a Legal Aid attorney representing Chittum. Neither Brock and Scott Holding executives nor an attorney pursuing Chittum’s debt responded to requests for comment.

So far, not one of them has stepped up to the plate. I am so frustrated I felt like crying as I was preparing a care package with his favorite cookies. Abby, why do people make promises they can’t keep? – Brokenhearted Military Mom

Dear Military Mom: The promises are often made with the best intentions – and then the promiser becomes distracted, diverted, forgetful. In most cases, no one means to be hurtful. Because these forgetful folks are family members, my advice is to remind them of what a morale booster it would be for your son to hear from them. Suggest items he might need, and offer to send them along with YOUR next care package.

DAVIDSON COUNTY – Two people face theft and drug-related charges after an investigation by Davidson County sheriff’s deputies. Officers received a report on Tuesday of a stolen laptop computer from a Lovette Road residence off of Noahtown Road south of Thomasville. The victim reported that her son stole the laptop from her home. A few hours after deputies took the report, they responded to a Briar Creek Court residence near the scene of the theft in reference to a larceny of an X-Box video game system. While en route, deputies observed a fight on the side of Mt. Zion Church Road involving the suspect, according to the sheriff’s office. Deputies observed the stolen X-Box in plain view of the suspect’s vehicle. Brian Keith Cruthis, 27, of Lovette Road, Thomasville, and James Arthur Jones III, 17, of E. State Avenue, High Point, were both arrested in connection with the theft of the laptop and the X-Box, deputies said. During an inventory of

the vehicle, deputies located a small amount of marijuana and drug paraphernalia inside. During the arrest, officers received information from the Thomasville Police Department that the car Cruthis and Jones had in their possession had been reported stolen, according to the sheriff’s office. Cruthis was charged with two counts of misdemeanor larceny, one count of felony possession of a stolen vehicle, possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia and jailed under a $7,500 bond, deputies said. Jones was charged with two counts of misdemeanor larceny, possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia and was released on an unsecured bond.

Giving can change your life

O

n Feb. 15, 1993, the cover of Sports Illustrated featured a full-page photograph of Arthur Ashe, America’s iconic tennis champion, who transcended his enormous success in the sport of tennis through his courageous activism for both civil rights and HIV/ AIDS movements. Ashe GIVING was one 101 of the first Paul internaLessard tional ■■■sports stars who embraced philanthropy and used his status to encourage others to give. I framed that picture of Ashe, and it still hangs in my office. Beneath the photo is this quote: “I know I could never forgive myself if I elected to live without humane purpose; without trying to help the poor and unfortunate; without recognizing that perhaps the purest joy in life comes with trying to help others.� Philanthropy is a gift that we really give to ourselves and our families, for it plumbs the depths of our spirit, heart and priorities. We live in a narcissistic culture that focuses so much on the care and nurturing of the almighty self, and yet there is so much more to life. In my philanthropic career, I can tell you without hesitation that I have never seen people more fulfilled, satisfied and happy than when they are giving of themselves to others. Giving – not just money, but sharing talents, leadership and vision – is what makes us more complete human beings, for it exercises not only our intellect, but also our heart and soul. I have seen families completely transformed for the better through giving, I have watched angry, aimless children suddenly have humane purpose, and I have known people who have ruined their lives by worrying constantly about the preservation and growth of money absolutely set free. So before you spend a fortune on therapy, cosmetic surgery, rejuvenating vacations, expensive memberships at the Hair Club for Men or trips to upscale juvenile boot camps, consider the simple act of giving to someone or something that needs your help. It will change your life.

You don’t need a book for DASH diet details

D

ear Dr. Donohue: I need to obtain a copy of the DASH diet you spoke of. Where can I get it? – L.K. I can give it to you here. You don’t need a book. You don’t even need a formal printout. DASH is “dietary approaches to stop hypertension.” It’s a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains and low-fat dairy products. “Whole grains” are grains --wheat, barley, rye, oats, etc. -- that haven’t been refined. They still have their outer coat, bran. Low-fat dairy products are skim milk and other milk products with reduced fat. Red meats, salt and sweets are restricted. The diet calls for seven or eight whole-grain servings a day. Examples of a serving are one slice of bread, 1 ounce of dry cereal or half a cup of brown rice. Four to five servings of vegetables are on the diet. Here one serving means 1 cup of leafy green vegetables or half a cup of cooked vegetables. Another serving example is 6 ounces of vegetable juice. Four to five servings of fruit is a requirement, with a fruit serving being the equivalent of one medium-sized fruit, a quarter-cup of dried fruit or half a cup of fresh, frozen or canned fruit. Two to three low-fat dairy servings a day is another DASH item, with a serving being 8 ounces of skim milk, 1 cup of lowfat yogurt or 1 1/2 ounces of low-fat cheese. Two servings of meat, poultry

and fish a day are allowed. A serving is 3 ounces. Fats and oils should be kept HEALTH to two or three servDr. Paul ings a day Donohue with a serv■■■ ing defined as 2 tablespoons of light salad dressing, 1 teaspoon of margarine or 1 teaspoon of vegetable oil. Weekly, five servings of nuts are allowed, with a serving being 1/3 cup or 1 1/2 ounces. Combine the above with some daily exercise and a careful restriction of salt, and you can expect your blood pressure to drop. Here’s a doable way to lower pressure, and it might be lowered without having to resort to medicines. Dear Dr. Donohue: Is it safe to take several medications at one time? Do multiple meds taken at the same time nullify their absorption or effectiveness? For example, I take my multivitamin with milk each morning because I was told that taking the vitamin with milk would have a strengthening effect on bones. I also take UltraSlim and an acai pill. Nothing in milk or UltraSlim interferes with the absorption or effectiveness of vitamins. I wonder about the proof behind the thinking that taking a vitamin with

milk strengthens bone. It strikes me as being a bit farfetched. I can’t find out what natural products are in acai. I’ve already spent too much time looking for that information. Why not take this pill at some other time and spare me more fruitless search time? If it’s truly important that a person gets every last milligram, microgram or international unit (I.U.) out of every vitamin in a multivitamin, then the best time to take it is after the day’s largest meal that has some fat in it. Fat enhances the absorption of vitamins A, D, E and K. For 99.99 percent of vitamin takers, this isn’t of such importance. We all get plenty of vitamins in a balanced diet. The multivitamin provides a little insurance that we are meeting daily requirements, but for many, it’s not needed. We certainly don’t need every last atom of every vitamin included in the multi pill. Other medicines can be taken together, so long as no one has told you otherwise. If anyone is in doubt about that, they can speak with their pharmacist to see if one medicine is incompatible with another.

DR. DONOHUE regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but he will incorporate them in his column whenever possible. Readers may write him or request an order form of available health newsletters at P.O. Box 536475, Orlando, FL 32853-6475

Garth Brooks says he’s coming out of retirement

AP

A poster of the U.S. postage stamp honoring Mississippi author Tennessee Williams hangs on the wall of the sitting room in the Clarksdale, Miss., home of Panny Mayfield. The house used to belong the family of Williams’ childhood friend, Phil Clark.

Stellaaahhh!!! Festival honors Williams in Williams’ award-winning stories. The name Stella in “A Streetcar Named Desire� belonged to a friend of Williams’ mother in Clarksdale. Brick, the alcoholic athlete played by Paul Newman in the 1958 film, “Cat on a Hot Tin Roof,� was the name of a local boy who bullied Williams while he was a

student at Oakhurst Elementary. The Tennessee Williams Festival, produced by Coahoma Community College, begins today and features a Stella shouting contest, acting competitions, porch plays and panel discussions about Williams and his life in Mississippi. A BBC documentary will be aired.

HPU’s Cherry knows Big South I

f Scott Cherry turns the High Point University men’s basketball team into a Big South power, several of his colleagues will have no one to blame but themselves. The youngest head coach in the Big South was younger still when he began searching for that elusive first coaching gig. The first SPORTS person to turn him down? Steve None other Hanf than Gardner■■■ Webb head coach Rick Scruggs. “It came down to him and a former player, and I felt obligated to hire the former player – looking back on it, I wish I would have hired Scott,” Scruggs said with a laugh during Tuesday’s conference gathering. “I hate to see him in the league. He’s going to do a great job of getting that program where it ought to be.” Media day in Charlotte gave Cherry his first chance to interact with the other nine Big South coaches in the same setting, but he knew almost everyone thanks to his 10 years as an assistant in the closeknit coaching fraternity. For instance, Cherry said he goes back a ways with Winthrop head coach Randy Peele – who also had a chance to hire one of Dean Smith’s top pupils at North Carolina. “When I was at UNC Greensboro as a head coach, Coach Smith called me to recommend him for a job,” Peele recalled. “I had a guy who worked for me for free the year before, and I told Coach, ‘I know if you were in my situation, you’d give it to him.’ He was very understanding.’ ” Then pausing as he returned from that late ’90s flashback, Peele added: “It could have been different, no question about that.” Things didn’t turn out too badly for Cherry following those rejections. Six seasons after helping the Tar Heels win the 1993 NCAA Championship, Cherry joined George Mason University and legendary head coach Jim Larranaga. In seven seasons with the Patriots, Cherry was on the bench for a team that regularly reached the NCAA Tournament and stunned the college basketball world with its run to the 2006 Final Four. In 2007, it was on to Western Kentucky as an assistant to Darrin Horn. They guided the Hilltoppers to the Sweet 16 and jumped to South Carolina last year, at which point Cherry became Horn’s top assistant.

WHO’S NEWS

---

The Gamecocks won 21 games. Following Bart Lundy’s dismissal last March, Cherry was tabbed Cherry less than three weeks later to resurrect the Panthers in the wake of their 9-21 campaign. “If you look at his basketball tree – the tree that I come from is not a big, famous tree,” began Peele. “Scott played for Dean Smith at North Carolina, he worked for Jim Larranaga at George Mason, he was with Darrin Horn – he’s been around some people that are outstanding in this business. “Wouldn’t you love to be in all those practices and build your resume based on the knowledge you picked up from those three men?” marveled Peele. “That’s incredible.” For Cherry, the really incredible aspect of his sevenmonth whirlwind at High Point is that practice opens today. “When I first got the job it seemed like practice was a million miles away,” Cherry said. “I’m interested in getting started and seeing if I can get these guys to figure out what we’re trying to do.” Cherry plans on implementing an energetic style on the offensive and defensive sides that will have the fans cheering and the opponents – the Panthers hope – cringing. If it works, and especially if it works fast, the 38-year-old will begin earning even more respect from the league’s coaches because of what he’s doing with his own program. “It’s something I’ve always dreamed of doing,” Cherry said of his first head-coaching position. “I’m just glad to be here and be part of something like this. There’s a great bunch of coaches in this league, guys you have a lot of respect for because of the number of years they’ve been coaching, the amount of success they’ve had. I feel honored and lucky to be a part of that fraternity.” It’s a party he tried to crash before – before those rejections led him down a different path. Might he have a chance one day to return the favor? “I thought the world of Scott, and I hope we get a chance one day to maybe work together again,” Scruggs said before laughing at a grand plan forming in his mind. “Maybe he’ll get the North Carolina job after Roy (Williams) retires and hire me. That’d be nice.” shanf@hpe.com | 888-3526

Stretch at the net Ciara Jackson of Ragsdale forces over a shot that Jennifer Lindh of High Point Central is unable to block in the final Piedmont Triad 4A match of the season for both teams Thursday. Jackson produced 13 kills and four blocks as the Tigers swept the BIson. See details 3C.

Drew gets shot at point CHAPEL HILL (AP) — Larry Drew II never had to show off much of a jumpshot or take ownership of North Carolina’s high-powered offense as a freshman playing behind future pro Ty Lawson. Those pressure-free days are over. Now Lawson is in the NBA and the unproven Drew looks likely to inherit the starting point guard job for the defending national champion Tar Heels. It’s one of the biggest question marks facing North Carolina

as it begins preseason practice with a loaded frontcourt and a lot of inexperience along the perimeter. “Me and Ty are two different players completely,” Drew said Thursday during the team’s annual media day. “Coach (Roy Williams) knows that. He told me he didn’t want me to be a good player, he needed me to be a good player. When I hear that, all that means to me is just go out and try not to worry about distractions

or anything else. I just need to focus on the task at hand.” One thing is certain: The Tar Heels will look a lot different. Four-year star Tyler Hansbrough and Danny Green graduated and Lawson and Wayne Ellington left early for the NBA. And Drew could be the face of that change as the player charged with directing the fast-paced transition offense that has helped the Tar Heels win two NCAA titles in five seasons.

Duke hopes bigger is better DURHAM (AP) — Jon Scheyer and Nolan Smith weren’t about to let the loneliness affect them in Duke’s backcourt. Not even when one former teammate left early for the NBA, another transferred to Memphis and a third is playing football. “Nolan and I were ready for it to be just us two,” Scheyer said Thursday. Heading into Mike Krzyzewski’s 30th season in Durham, the

Blue Devils appear so uncharacteristically thin at guard that the Hall of Fame coach has tinkered with his systems to take advantage of what he calls “our biggest team since I’ve been here.” Scheyer and Smith are the only two returning guards who came to campus on scholarship, and that has placed the proud program annually dominated by its guards — from Bobby

Hurley to J.J. Redick — in an unfamiliar position. For now, anyway, Krzyzewski says his starting lineup probably would include Scheyer, Smith and 6foot-8 Kyle Singler on the perimeter with 610 brothers Miles and Mason Plumlee in the post and gritty 6-8 forward Lance Thomas as his sixth man. “I think we can be the best rebounding team I’ve had here,” Krzyzewski said.

HIT AND RUN

T

wo of the NFC’s undefeated juggernauts collide on Sunday in New Orleans. After the smoke clears, we should have a much clearer idea about where the Giants and Saints stack up in the NFC pecking order. Whoever wins, these teams figure to remain in the mix for conference superiority for the long haul. The Giants (5-0) have outscored their opponents 151-71, while the Saints (4-0) blitzed their foes 144-66. Keep in mind both teams faced a soft schedule thus far. The Giants’ victims

– the Redskins, Cowboys, Bucs, Chiefs and Raiders – own a combined 6-19 record. The Saints have conquered the Lions, Donovan McNabb-less Eagles, Bills and Jets. Their combined mark? Try 8-11. Both teams showcase big-name quarterbacks (Eli Manning and Drew Brees) and explosive offenses. The Giants rank second in total offense at 417 yards per game, with the Saints third at 414. But I’m still not sold on the New Orleans defense. The Giants lead the NFL in total defense

(210 yards per game) and pass defense (104.8 ypg). The Saints rank a solid seventh in total defense (295.2 ypg) and rushing defense (83.2 ypg), but they’ve yet to face an offense the caliber of New York’s. Until the Saints “D” shuts down an elite team, I’ll resist the urge to serenade them as Super Bowl contenders. Stuffing the Giants for a victory on Sunday would change that tune dramatically. We’ll see how it all unfolds.

Washington forward Antawn Jamison will miss the rest of the team’s exhibition games with a right shoulder injury. Jamison will be re-evaluated next week, after the swelling goes down. He had an MRI exam Thursday, a day after getting hurt while trying to block a shot by Zydrunas Ilgauskas in Washington’s 109-104 preseason victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers. The Wizards have preseason games left against Atlanta, Philadelphia and Chicago. They open the regular season Oct. 27 at Dallas. Jamison is a two-time All-Star who led the Wizards in scoring average last season at 22.2 points.

AT SALEM ACADEMY SW GUILFORD 1, RAGSDALE 0

WINSTON-SALEM – Westchester Country Day endured poor conditions and a long course of some 3.2 miles Thursday at Salem Academy in a tri-meet with Salem and the Forsyth Home Educators. Despite missing their No. 1 runner, the Wildcat girls dominated with four finishers in the top five for 17 points. Salem had 43 and FHE did not field a full team.

Thursday’s game-winner came with just six minutes to play. Danny Gillespie made three saves in goal for Southwest.

PREPS, FOOTBALL 4C www.hpe.com FRIDAY, OCTOBER 16, 2009 THE HIGH POINT ENTERPRISE

East, Thomasville set for conference clash schedule that still includes league frontrunners Andrews and Trinity, plus a game at more experienced Randleman, means the Warriors are looking at their last realistic shot at a win. There’s no shame in a new school struggling out of the gate, and it’s important for Wheatmore and its fans to keep that in mind. Atkins formed just five years ago and didn’t beat anybody other than fellow newcomer Reagan in the first 21 games. After picking up six victories in 2007, the Camels slumped again last year and currently find themselves in the midst of a 13-game losing streak. That’s seventh-worst in the state, according to the folks at NCpreps.com. East Chapel Hill and Green Hope rank first with 24 losses each after Andrews – the “other” one in the mountains – beat Rosman last week to snap its 24-game slide. The Camels have been within one touchdown of a single opponent this year (North Forsyth) while being outscored 215-27. Wheatmore, meanwhile, has allowed 316 points and scored 32 with its roster of inexperienced juniors, sophomores and freshmen.

EAST DAVIDSON AT THOMASVILLE

T.W. ANDREWS AT TRINITY

Records: East 4-3, 1-0 Central Carolina 2A; Thomasville 3-4, 1-0 Last year: Did not play Last week: East beat Lexington 17-7; Thomasville topped Central Davidson 21-0 Next week: East visits Central; Thomasville travels to West Davidson This week: With East, Thomasville and Salisbury each winning last Friday’s CCC openers, that leaves this week’s game as a key matchup on the road to the league championship. Of course, the fact that East and Thomasville are playing at all is fairly special. While the proximity of the schools would make for a natural rivalry, East and Thomasville actually haven’t played each other in football since 1996. In the schools’ 12 meetings between 1985 and 1996, the Bulldogs never lost. “We hope we can play with them,” said Golden Eagles coach Bryan Lingerfelt, whose teamed was buoyed by the win against the athletic Yellow Jackets. “They’re a really good football team – athletic, well-coached. It will be a big challenge for us, and we’ll be able to see where we measure up.” Win or lose against Thomasville, East certainly is on the right track after last year’s disappointing 2-9 campaign. And considering players such as Dylan Gallimore – the area’s No. 2 rusher at 134.1 yards per game – and steady QB Taylor Warren are just juniors, the future appears bright as well. “The last couple weeks we seem like we’re getting closer as a team,” Lingerfelt praised of the young group. “That’s what’s real important for us, and what athletics are all about.” Thomasville, meanwhile, continues to build after its brutal nonconference schedule. Asheboro and Central couldn’t touch the Bulldogs after Thomasville’s four close losses to some of the state’s biggest and best teams.

Records: Andrews 4-3, 1-0 PAC 6 2A; Trinity 4-1, 1-0 Last year: Did not play Last week: Andrews beat Atkins 19-0; Trinity romped 43-14 over Randleman Next week: Andrews welcomes Randleman; Trinity visits Wheatmore This week: What a time for the first meeting between the Red Raiders and Bulldogs since 2000! This new conference proved itself to be a three-horse race almost from the start, and tonight’s winner likely only needs a win over Carver to sew up a championship. Of course, if tonight’s winner falters against Carver, sharpen those pencils to get ready for the tie-breaker scenarios... Andrews and Trinity played each other throughout the 1990s, most recently as foes in the Tri-County 3A Conference. The early ’90s were not kind to Trinity, but the games grew much closer midway through the decade leading up to the Bulldogs’ 14-0 triumph in 1997: According to Enterprise records from that game, it was the Bulldogs’ first-ever win in the series. To get No. 2 tonight, Trinity’s option offense will have to be at top speed against an aggressive and big Raider defense.

PARKLAND AT HIGH POINT CENTRAL

Records: Parkland 1-7, 0-3 Piedmont Triad 4A; Central 6-1, 2-0 Last year: Did not play Last week: Parkland lost 28-20 to East Forsyth; Central edged Northwest Guilford 7-6 Next week: Parkland visits Northwest; Central travels to Glenn This week: This one has “trap game” written all over it for the Bison, who end the season with potential first-place showdowns against Glenn and Ragsdale with a game against crosstown rival Southwest Guilford sandwiched in between. No problem getting up for those, right? But what about the Mustangs, whose 1-7 record looks dismal – until you see the athletes on the field, and the onepoint loss to Glenn, and the eight-point loss to East. “We can’t overlook Parkland,” stressed Bison coach Wayne Jones. “They are very athletic, big, fast – we can’t overlook them. This is not an automatic win for us.” As long as Central’s players buy into that mindset, they should be all right against a team the Bison haven’t faced since 1996. Parkland owns a one-game winning streak in the series thanks to that 37-29 decision, but Central got the previous three meetings against its former North Piedmont 3A Conference foe – an affiliation for the two teams that only lasted from 1993-96.

SOUTHERN GUILFORD AT NE GUILFORD

Records: Southern 4-3, 1-0 Mid-Piedmont 3A; Northeast 4-3, 1-0 Last year: Did not play Last week: Southern slammed Southwestern Randolph 34-0; Northeast edged Asheboro 21-14 Next week: Southern welcomes North Forsyth; Northeast travels to Southwestern This week: The Rams and Storm/Indians haven’t played each other since 1992, when Southern pulled out a 14-10 decision in Week 2 of a 4-6 campaign. Now, they square off – with three games remaining in the regular season after tonight – in what figures to be the firstplace showdown in the MPC. While the teams own identical records, you’ve got to like Northeast’s chances to retain its spot atop the standings after most coaches picked the Rams as the preseason favorite. Northeast’s losses came against once-beaten Northern Guilford (26-20), once-beaten Page (31-28) and – most impressively – undefeated Reidsville, which broke a sweat for the only time all season in a 28-16 decision against Northeast. For all that, though, the Rams still struggled to beat an average Asheboro squad last week, and Southern is playing its best football of the season with three straight dominating wins. Two of the Storm losses came by a combined four points, and the other was against unbeaten Ragsdale.

SURRY CENTRAL AT BISHOP MCGUINNESS

Records: Surry 0-7, 0-3 Northwest 1A/2A; Bishop 6-1, 2-1 Last year: Did not play Last week: Surry lost 46-21 to West Stokes; Bishop fell 9-7 to East Surry Next week: Surry plays host to North Surry; Bishop visits Mount Airy This week: After playing the rest of Surry County in the NWC the past four years, the Villains now get to tangle with Central along with East and North. Tonight’s game should be another stat-booster for Bishop against another winless team. The Eagles – one of the 2A teams in the split conference – have been competitive in a few games this fall, but not many. Bishop’s offense was handcuffed last week against East, but the close loss still proved that the Villains are a team to be reckoned with in the NWC. The key for tonight’s game will be working out any last-minute kinks and staying healthy heading into next week’s showdown at powerhouse Mount Airy.

SOUTH DAVIDSON AT CHATHAM CENTRAL

Records: South 2-5, 1-2 Yadkin Valley 1A; Chatham 1-6, 0-3 Last year: South 12-6 Last week: South lost 42-6 to Albemarle; Chatham fell 48-0 to West Montgomery Next week: South welcomes West; Chatham visits North Rowan This week: The Wildcats own two straight wins over the Bears. Making it three in a row would do wonders for South’s postseason fate, as a finish higher than fifth place in the conference standings would be very difficult with a loss tonight: South ends the regular season against upper-tier squads West, South Stanly and North Rowan. Chatham’s lone win this season came against Wake Christian Academy – which got its only win of the season on opening night thanks to a forfeit.

Beason admits error in blasting Peppers

CHARLOTTE (AP) — Jon Beason apologized Thursday for calling out Carolina teammate Julius Peppers for his lack of production last week, even after the Panthers responded with their first win. “After what happened, I realized I was wrong,” Beason said on radio station WFNZ. “There are certain things you shouldn’t say in public, certain things that should remain in-house. That’s where I made my mistake.” After avoiding report-

ers in the locker room for nearly a week, the Pro Bowl linebacker said in his paid radio appearance that he never talked to Peppers after saying on the same station last week that “I’m going to have a conversation with that guy.” Peppers, a four-time Pro Bowl choice making an NFL-high $16.7 million salary this season, had just one sack and 10 tackles in Carolina’s 0-3 start. Beason last week said a teammate called him after

Minnesota’s Jared Allen got 41⁄2 sacks in a Monday night game, and Beason vowed to tell Peppers that “I need everything you’ve got.” The Panthers then beat Washington 20-17 Sunday for their first victory of the season. Peppers had two sacks and made a key play to force a safety. Beason added a team-high 10 tackles, but the team’s best defensive effort of the season apparently wasn’t the result of any conversation.

ST. LOUIS (AP) – Conservative radio personality Rush Limbaugh lashed out at NFL union leader DeMaurice Smith, Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson and the media a day after being dropped from a group trying to buy the St. Louis Rams. On his syndicated show Thursday, Limbaugh

said he was approached by St. Louis Blues chairman Dave Checketts earlier this year about participating in a Rams bid. Checketts assured him his involvement as a minority investor had been vetted by the NFL, he said. “I said to him at this meeting, ‘Are you aware

of the firestorm?’ He said ‘We wouldn’t have approached you if we hadn’t taken care of that,”’ said Limbaugh, a conservative favorite who is reviled by many liberals. Limbaugh added that Checketts had told him his involvement had been cleared at the “highest levels of the NFL.”

NEW YORK (AP) – A late-day surge left stocks with modest advances Thursday as a jump in the price of oil lifted energy companies and offset weakness in bank shares. The gains came a day after strong profit reports from JPMorgan Chase & Co. and Intel Corp. vaulted the Dow Jones industrials above the 10,000 level for the first time in a year. The Dow tacked on another 47 points. Stocks spent most of the day lower but rallied in the final 15 minutes of trading ahead of quarterly reports from Google Inc., IBM Corp. and chip maker Advanced Micro Devices that arrived after the closing bell. All three topped expectations and could help the market extend its gains if re-

ports due early Friday from General Electric Co. and Bank of America Corp. aren’t spoilers. Analysts say the market’s late bounce signals investors are still looking to get into the market. “People are trying to buy on the dips,” said Andrew Neale, partner and portfolio manager at Fogel Neale Partners in New York. “There is so much money waiting on the sidelines.” A rise in oil prices to their highest level in nearly a year lifted energy stocks and, in turn, the overall market. Gains in companies like refiner Tesoro Corp. and Chevron Corp. helped offset losses in financial stocks after earnings from Goldman Sachs Group Inc. and Citigroup Inc. disappointed investors.

prices as Americans slowly regain their appetite to shop despite rising unemployment and tight credit conditions. The Labor Department said Thursday that firsttime claims for jobless benefits dropped to a seasonally-adjusted 514,000 from an upwardly revised 524,000 the previous week. The fifth decline in six weeks was below Wall Street economists’ forecasts, according to Thomson Reuters. In a separate report, the

Labor Department said consumer prices rose 0.2 percent last month, matching analysts’ expectations. Prices excluding the volatile energy and food categories also rose 0.2 percent, slightly higher than the 0.1 percent increase analysts had forecast. The four-week average, which smooths fluctuations, fell for the sixth straight time to 531,500. That’s the lowest since January and about 125,000 below the peak reached in

early April. Over the past 12 months, consumer prices fell 1.3 percent, reflecting a severe recession that has kept a lid on inflation across a wide range of products and services. Excluding food and energy, prices rose 1.5 percent. Food costs slipped 0.1 percent in September, reflecting lower prices for meat and fresh vegetables. Clothing prices rose only 0.1 percent, and housing costs were flat compared with August.

Failed loans hurt Citigroup percent stake in the bank. Including those items, the New York-based bank reported a $3.24 billion loss. Citigroup, one of the hardest hit during the credit crisis and recession, said loan losses during the quarter came to $8 billion, down $386 million from nearly $8.4 billion in the second quarter, but a sign that many consumers continue to be overwhelmed. Citigroup’s results are

a measure not only of its health after the company lost nearly $19 in 2008 and needed a $45 billion government bailout, but also the economy’s, since the bank caters to consumers. Banks including Citigroup had warned when second-quarter earnings were released that loan losses would continue into next year. Investors nonetheless reacted negatively to the bank’s report of con-

CHARLOTTE (AP) — Citigroup provided a sobering reminder Thursday that the economy is still struggling, reporting that its third-quarter results were weighed down by billions of dollars in failed loans.

WASHINGTON (AP) — New jobless claims dropped to the lowest level since January and the prices of many household goods stayed low last month, positive signs of stability for the fledgling U.S. economic recovery. The decline in jobless claims shows companies are cutting fewer workers, though the drop isn’t yet steep enough to signal new hiring, economists said. And the low level of inflation is holding down

Other financial company stocks fell sharply in what was overall a modestly lower stock market. “The bank is not making money, they are losing money in credit cards and mortgages, and it’s dragging down the entire bank,” said Bart Narter, senior vice president at consulting firm Celent.

Pfizer closes acquisition of Wyeth TRENTON, N.J. (AP) — Pfizer Inc. and Wyeth have tied the knot in the drug industry’s most expensive marriage this year. Nine months after Pfizer announced an agreement to buy Wyeth for $68 billion, the deal closed Thursday, a day after the companies got final approval from the Federal Trade Commission and the Canadian Competition Bureau. It’s a smart — and necessary — move for Pfizer, changing it overnight from a marketing machine with some popular pills facing patent expirations into a diversified health care giant. That’s because Wyeth is a major maker of biotech drugs, vaccines and animal and consumer products, as well as traditional pills such as blockbuster antidepressant Effexor.

Charles Schwab profit falls 34 percent NEW YORK (AP) — Charles Schwab Corp. said Thursday it was able to attract new accounts and client assets during the third quarter, but its profit fell 34 percent as low interest rates and waivers on certain fees ate into revenue. Shares of the San Francisco-based brokerage dropped 82 cents, or 4.3 percent, to $18.46 in midday trading.

Calpers reviews fees paid to former insider NEW YORK (AP) — The nation’s largest pension fund, the California Public Employees’ Retirement System, says it is investigating fees paid to an outside manager that directed the fund’s investments. Calpers said late Wednesday it is reviewing payments of $50 million over a five-year period to Arvco Financial Ventures, which is headed by former Calpers board member Al Villalobos.

No Democrat on the panel opposed the measure. One Republican, North Carolina Rep. Walter Jones, sided with them to approve it. Next week, the panel is expected to approve another big piece of Obama regulatory plan that would create a federal agency dedicated solely to protecting financial consumers. Both measures would still face scrutiny by the full House, as well as in the Senate where business-minded Republicans are likely to wield more influence. But for now, the administration is hailing Thursday’s vote as a critical step toward throwing sunlight on an opaque and growing $600 trillion global market. The bill “is absolutely essential to preserving a strong marketplace, pre-

serving transparency (and) getting incentives right in the system,” said Michael Barr, Treasury’s assistant secretary for financial institutions. “We don’t want to allow any firm like an AIG to be able to engage in derivatives transactions without requiring those transactions be reported and to be traded on an exchange,” he said. In the case of AIG, the company sold a form of derivatives, called creditdefault swaps, to investors who were looking to protect themselves against losses in the housing market. When home defaults rose, AIG didn’t have enough resources to make good on all of its promises and required a hefty government bailout to avoid folding.

WASHINGTON (AP) – A U.S. House of Representatives’ panel voted Thursday to regulate for the first time privately traded derivatives, the kind of exotic financial instruments that helped bring down Lehman Brothers and nearly toppled American International Group. The 43-26 vote by the House Financial Services Committee, was a first major step for President Barack Obama’s plans to overhaul federal regulations governing the nation’s financial institutions. The mostly party line vote showed that Democrats were prepared to band together to override objections by Republicans and the financial lobby and demand increased oversight of Wall Street.

A cultural approach Hospital launches ambassador program to aid non-English-speaking patients BY JIMMY TOMLIN ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

H

IGH POINT – High Point Regional Health System opened the door to nonEnglish-speaking patients a long time ago, but now the hospital is rolling out the welcome mat. The health system’s new cultural ambassador program, implemented last month, aims to eliminate barriers between hospital staff and patients who speak another language. “We’ve had the language translation and interpreter services for many years,” explains Janice Wakefield, “but we wanted to take things a step further to enhance the communication even more between non-English patients and our health-care team, to work on being more welcoming.” Wakefield, a clinical chaplain in the hospital’s department of spiritual care, ethics and diversity – which oversees the cultural ambassador program – says the program will benefit not only non-English-speaking patients, but also hospital staff. “This program will help our non-English patients understand better how to navigate the health-care system and empower them by putting communication tools in their hands,” she says. “But it will also help our staff have a chance to get to know folks from other cultures and increase their skills in providing care to patients.”

SPECIAL | HPE

Spanish-speaking patients at High Point Regional will be given cards to help them communicate with hospital staff. The cultural ambassador program serves a growing population of patients – both inpatients and in the emergency department – at High Point Regional. Between Oct. 1, 2008 and Oct. 1, 2009, the hospital admitted 372 non-English-speaking patients and saw another 1,212 in the emergency department, according to statistics provided by health system officials. The vast majority of those patients spoke Spanish, but they also included patients who spoke Vietnamese, Russian, Swahili and several other languages. For Spanish-speaking patients, the hospital has an on-site interpreter weekdays, who has also translated a number of hospital

documents into Spanish. For days when the interpreter is not available, and for patients who speak other languages, the hospital contracts with an interpreting service available by telephone. The cultural ambassador program goes beyond mere interpreting service, though. Each Spanish-speaking patient will be visited by a “cultural ambassador” – a hospital staff member – who will give the patient language materials including: • A welcome packet with information on interpretation services, suggestions for talking with doctors, and information about visiting hours and parking; • Spanish menus and instructions on how to order food;

YOUR COMMUNITY. YOUR NEWSPAPER.

• Bilingual signs and picture cards to help with routine communication. The ambassador will also set up a speaker phone in the patient’s room for easy access to the telephone interpretation services, as well as place a language alert form on the patient’s chart and a sign in the patient’s room so staff will know what language the patient speaks. “The cultural ambassador program is really an expansion of what we’ve been doing,” Wakefield says. “It’s a pilot program right now, focusing on Spanish patients, but we hope to expand that to other languages, too.” jtomlin@hpe.com | 888-3579

“Why is Minnie playing in the money game?” I asked a kibitzer. On Fridays, my club runs team matches. The stakes are $10 on the match, $1 per IMP. “She won the morning duplicate. She said she feels lucky today.” Minnie Bottoms, our senior member, has old bifocals that make her mix up kings and jacks, often to her opponents’ dismay. In today’s deal both Souths played 3NT. At one table West led a heart, and South won with the ten, finessed in spades and made an overtrick.

DAILY QUESTION

Minnie was East in the replay, where West led a diamond. When dummy played low, Minnie played the jack! South took the queen and, “knowing” West had the king, saw nine tricks if the jack of hearts fell. But if South lost a spade finesse, the defense might cash four clubs. So South tried the top hearts. When Minnie showed out, South led a diamond to the ten – not best. He was stunned when Minnie won and led a club. West took the Q-A, cashed the jack of hearts and led a club to Minnie’s king. Down one!

CROSSWORD

Friday, October 16, 2009 CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Kellie Martin, 34; Flea, 47; Tim Robbins, 51; Suzanne Somers, 63 HAPPY BIRTHDAY: You have a strong sense of what will and what won’t work, so act on your instincts and have confidence in who you are and what you can do. Big talkers may make you feel inadequate but in the end you have way more to offer and less to lose if you just go for it. This is a year of progress so be willing to put yourself on the line. Your numbers are 7, 9, 14, 23, 26, 32, 48 ARIES (March 21-April 19): Take precautions. Don’t put yourself in a vulnerable position. Greater involvement in activities that challenge you will help to eliminate the stress that others are causing in your life. ★★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): If you let someone interfere in your life, you will have regrets. A proposal you make must be foolproof before you offer it to anyone of importance. Don’t neglect your health. If you are feeling tired, take time to relax. ★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You have so much to gain by focusing on what’s really important and letting everything else sit for the time being. Someone younger will have a positive influence on you. ★★★★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): Don’t worry if things aren’t running smoothly at home. Sit back until you see an opportunity to take charge and do what needs to be done. You will find a way to turn negatives into positives. ★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Don’t waste time when there is so much to be accomplished. A partnership that will bring more value to a project you are working on can be developed and the guidelines set so you both contribute equal amounts. Financial gains can be expected. ★★★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Think about your plans – past, present and future – and you’ll have a better idea what direction will benefit you the most. Rely on knowledge and skills to bring you lucrative returns. ★★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Don’t get confused because of what everyone else is doing or telling you to do. You have to make up your own mind. Deception is likely to throw you off-course. Someone is likely to take advantage of you if you allow it. ★★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Don’t make a decision because things are moving so fast that you feel pressured. Time is on your side even if you are being told otherwise. Take more of an interest in people who can use your expertise and help. ★★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You may want to be an adventurer or a crusader or just challenge yourself but, before jumping in with both feet, consider what you are really up against. Size down or take on less to make your task more feasible. ★★★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Your authoritative manner will not bode well with the people you are trying to get to help you. Don’t push too hard; implementing a little fun into the mix will ensure your success. ★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Your goals will be met and your demands honored. Have some fun by socializing with friends or attending an event that will bring you in touch with new acquaintances. Someone’s unique lifestyle will capture your imagination. ★★★★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): A change of plans may unnerve you but, if you show your distress, you will put yourself at a disadvantage. You can take on a burden but only if you strike a deal to be reimbursed. ★★★

You hold: S A 2 H A Q 10 6 D Q 8 2 C J 5 4 2. Your partner opens one spade, and the next player passes. What do you say? ANSWER: Your most descriptive call would be 2NT, promising a balanced 13 to 15 points with stoppers in the unbid suits. Most players now use “limit” major-suit raises and treat a 2NT response as a conventional forcing raise. If that is your partnership style, respond two clubs. A response of two hearts would suggest a longer suit. South dealer N-S vulnerable

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

GOP fails to stop Gitmo transfers

WASHINGTON – House Democrats on Thursday repelled a Republican effort to block transfer of the Guantanamo Bay detainees to the U.S., handing President Barack Obama a partial victory in his effort to close the prison. Instead, by a 224-193 vote, the House stood by a Democratic plan to allow suspected enemy combatants held at the controversial facility in Cuba to be shipped to U.S. soil – but only to be prosecuted for their suspected crimes.

Feds arrest hundreds in 6-month gang probe

WASHINGTON – Immigration officials say a sixmonth, 89-city operation focused on gangs led to the arrests of more than 1,700 people. The 1,785 arrests are of people suspected of gang and criminal activity or immigration violations. Immigration and Customs Enforcement says 35 percent have violent criminal histories, 16 are gang leaders and more than 1,400 are suspected gang members. About 905 people face criminal charges. The operation targeted gangs with largely foreign-born members involved in many types of smuggling.

Senate panel OKs bill to make radio pay fees

WASHINGTON – Legislation to make radio stations pay royalties to performers when they broadcast their music won the Senate Judiciary Committee’s approval Thursday. Satellite radio, Internet radio and cable TV music channels already pay fees to performers and musicians, along with songwriter royalties. AM and FM radio stations just pay songwriters, not performers. Judiciary Committee Chairman Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., said the bill corrects a glaring inequity. ENTERPRISE NEWS SERVICE REPORTS

Sheriff probes sweat lodge deaths as homicides PRESCOTT, Ariz. (AP) – The deaths of two people during a sweat lodge ceremony led by self-help expert James Arthur Ray are being investigated as homicides, authorities said Thursday. Yavapai County Sheriff Steve Waugh said the deaths of Kirby Brown, 38, of Westtown N.Y. and James Shore, 40, of Milwaukee were not accidental. “A combination of cir-

cumstances led to the deaths,� Waugh told reporters. “Whether or not we can prove a criminal case, that has yet to be determined.� Waugh said investigators are looking at the way the sweat lodge was built, the fact that people had fallen ill at previous sweat ceremonies led by Ray, and questionable medical care on site. Ray is the primary focus of the probe but others also

are being investigated, the sheriff said. A call to Ray’s spokesman wasn’t immediately returned after the sheriff’s announcement. Ray led more than 50 people into a makeshift sweat lodge at a retreat outside Sedona, Ariz. on Oct. 8. After about two hours, Brown and Shore were pulled out of the sweat lodge. Nineteen other people were taken to hospitals, and one remains in critical condition.

County to sick workers: Stay home or risk firing PHOENIX (AP) – Employees of an Arizona county who have flu symptoms or a temperature of at least 100.4 degrees must stay home from work or risk being disciplined or fired under a new policy, officials said Thursday. The requirement is aimed at lessening the spread of swine or seasonal flu illnesses among the county’s nearly 7,000 employees and among people who visit government buildings, Pima County Board of Supervisors chairman Richard Elias said. Employees with flu symptoms would be required to stay home until at least 24 hours after the fever ends. A sick

employee who ignores a manager’s order to go home faces disciplinary action or firing. “It seems like we are being a bit draconian,� Elias said. “But in consideration of our employees and their families and

people who come in to do business in county buildings, we want people to fee free to call in sick.� Pima County, Arizona’s second largest county, has a population of 1 million and includes Tucson.

FORT COLLINS, Colo. (AP) – The father of a 6year-old boy feared floating away aboard a homemade balloon held his son in his arms as he spoke to reporters after the child was found hiding in the garage. Richard Heene says they were working to launch the balloon Thursday morning, and he yelled at 6-year-old Falcon for playing in it. The boy says he hid in the rafters of the family’s garage because he was scared when his dad yelled. The father says Falcon’s brother saw his sibling inside the compartment, and the family thought he was aboard when the balloon launched. It was not immediately clear if the launch was accidental. The family has appeared on the ABC reality show “Wife Swap.� Richard Heene bristled when asked whether the incident was a publicity stunt, calling it “horrible after the crap we just went through.� Sheriff Jim Alderden

turned to reporters during a news conference and gave a thumbs up and said, “He’s at the house. Apparently he’s been there the whole time,� Alderden said. Investigators had searched the house twice, and interviewed one of Falcon Heene’s older brothers

‘He’s at the house. Apparently he’s been there the whole time.’ Jim Alderden Sheriff

several times, he said. The discovery marked a bizarre end to a saga that started when the giant silvery balloon floated away from the family’s yard Thursday morning, sparking a frantic rescue operation that involved military helicopters and briefly shut down Denver International Airport.

No Social Security COLA could spur stimulus check WASHINGTON (AP) – Social Security recipients won’t get a costof-living increase next year for the first time in more than a third of a century, and that could boost President Barack Obama’s plan to send seniors another round of $250 payments before the congressional elections. Democratic leaders in Congress have signed onto the plan, greatly improving its chances, even as some budget hawks say the payments are unwarranted and could add to the federal budget deficit. Republican leaders said they, too, favor the payments but don’t want

to increase the deficit to pay for them. More than 50 million Social Security recipients will see no increase in their monthly payments next year, the government said Thursday, the first year without an increase since automatic adjustments were adopted in 1975. Blame it on falling consumer prices. By law, cost-of-living adjustments are pegged to inflation, which is negative this year because of lower energy costs. Social Security payments do not go down, even when prices drop.

WASHINGTON – Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who had cancer surgery earlier this year, was kept at a hospital overnight after she became drowsy and fell from her seat aboard an airplane. Court officials blamed a reaction to medicine. It was the second time Ginsburg, 76, has been hospitalized in the last month. She was taken to a hospital on Sept. 24 after falling ill at her Supreme Court office. Ginsburg was taken to Washington Hospital Center around 11:15 p.m. Wednesday.
