HIGH POINT – “Wow, double wow. Wow squared.� That’s what Mayor Becky Smothers and scores of other High Point University guests had on their minds Friday as they toured the new $70 million University Center. The 277,000-square-foot complex houses two residence halls, a full-floor research commons, and restaurants. In many places, the walls and floors gleam, and high technology is everywhere, from TV screens to a video theater and computers. Smothers spoke before a ribbon-cutting just inside the main entrance. HPU President Nido Qubein has a director of “Wow,� Roger Clodfelter, who monitored center construction for months. “It is beyond wow,� Smothers said. “We are fortunate to be able to celebrate something like this.� The ultra-modern complex is supported by a hidden service system. “It is designed just like Disney World,� Qubein said. “You’ll never see a staffer carrying food through the building. Everything comes in through the back of the building to service elevators and then underground. There are hallways just for service from the $4 million to $5 million kitchen that prepares all the food.� The luxury of the center is meant to enhance education, Qubein said. The spacious Research and Learning Commons is open 24 hours to complement Smith Library. “We care about academics,� Qubein said.

Duke Energy signs solar deal with Chinese firm MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

AP

Manly Porter is shown at the Davidson Correctional Center in Lexington on Thursday. Porter is one of 20 violent offenders scheduled to be released from North Carolina prisons.

N.C. lifers cope after freedom delayed RALEIGH (AP) – When prisoner Cecil Morrison heard that North Carolina’s governor would block his release from a life sentence after nearly 32 years behind bars, he said he felt so sick he had to lie down on his bunk and ask God for help. “When I heard the news yesterday I got a little weak in the stomach, a little dizzy, a little tears,” 49-year-old Morrison told the Associated Press in a phone interview from the Randolph Correctional Center in Asheboro. Just last week prison officials told Morrison he would unexpectedly be set free. “I was looking forward to the day of my release,” he said. The Department of Correction said it has been closely monitoring Morrison and 19 other inmates since

Gov. Beverly Perdue said Thursday she would halt their releases. “We’re obviously concerned about the emotional ride these inmates have been on for the past week as well as the victims,” said department spokesman Keith Acree. “We’re watching that group very carefully to make sure there’s no rash behavior.” Acree said mental health staff and chaplains were available for the 20. Perdue said Thursday that she was “appalled” by the North Carolina Supreme Court’s ruling that officials believed would lead to the release of convicted killer Bobby Bowden early from his life sentence. Bowden argued that a state law from the 1970s defined a life sentence as 80 years. The good behavior credit system in

the 1980s allowed some like Bowden to get day-for-a-day credits for good behavior. Twenty inmates, including Morrison, qualified for release under this ruling. More were to follow in later months. James Lewis, the assistant superintendent at Davidson Correctional Center, said facility inmate Manley Porter was disheartened by the decision. “He was disappointed as any of us would be,” Lewis said. “Now he’s just waiting to see what happens. He knows that things can go up and down.” Porter, 61, said in an interview earlier this week that he was excited to return to the outside world, planning on eating a first meal at International House of Pancakes.

Thomasville man charged with abusing child ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

THOMASVILLE – A Thomasville man allegedly abused an 11-monthold baby Wednesday to the point that the child sustained head injuries, according to police. Capt. James Mills of the Thomasville Police Department said on Thursday the baby is listed

in critical condition at Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center. The incident happened at 209-E Arthur Drive. Jeremy Brent Jordan, of 209-E Arthur Drive, has been charged with assault with a deadly weapon inflicting serious injury and felonious child abuse, as well as being served with outstanding

warrants from the High Point Police Department on an unrelated incident. “He came in and talked to the detectives,” Mills said. “He has been under a lot of stress. He has been out of work. I think the child was crying and wouldn’t be quiet for him. I think out of a frustration he lost his temper. He let his frustration

get the better of him.” The mother of the child was not at home when the incident occurred, police said. Jordan was the boyfriend of the mother, according to police. Jordan was placed in the Davidson County Jail under a $500,000 secured bond. His first court date is Nov. 20 in Thomasville District Court.

CHARLOTTE – Duke Energy will team with a Chinese company to develop solar-power projects in the United States, the companies said in signing an agreement Friday in China. Duke Energy Generation Services, its commercial business unit, will team with China-based ENN Group to build and operate large-scale solar farms and “distributed generation” systems that produce power close to where the electricity is used. The two companies signed a memorandum of understanding on developing clean-energy technologies at last month’s Clinton Global Initiative meeting in New York. Former President Bill Clinton formed the initiative in 2005 to address worldwide problems. Duke Energy CEO Jim Rogers said China is in-

vesting heavily in green energy. With the agreement, he said, the two companies “seek to not only accelerate the development of solar power in the United States, but help achieve economies of scale and drive down the cost of renewable energy.” In August, Duke signed an agreement in Beijing with China’s largest power company, China Huaneng Group, in what was believed to be the first technology-exchange pact between electric utilities of the two countries. Duke said then that it expected to sign more such agreements with Chinese companies. Duke Energy Generation Services owns 630 megawatts of U.S. wind power projects, none in the Carolinas. It also is working on developing power plants fueled by wood wastes through a company if formed last year with French-based Areva.

64 counties had double-digit unemployment last month FROM PAGE 1

counties from August to September. However, last month, 64 counties recorded double-digit rates of unemployment, and 28 had unemployment rates of at least 12 percent, according to the economic research firm South by North Strategies Ltd. out of Chapel Hill. “Last month, employers eliminated 600 more positions than they created. Since the recession’s onset, North Carolina has lost, on net, 248,300 payroll jobs – an amount equivalent to 6 percent of all the jobs that existed in December 2007,”

reports South by North Strategies. A portion of the decline in unemployment is a reduction of the labor force as people drop off rolls statistically because they’ve given up looking for work, said John Quinterno, a principal at South by North Strategies. “Absent the federal recovery package, local job markets would be in much worse shape. Longterm recovery, however, will not occur without robust job growth, particularly private-sector growth,” Quinterno said. pjohnson@hpe.com | 888-3528

Ex-governor back Bratton says election change in spotlight with hearing means continuity

object to the referendum issue to shift from two- to four-year municipal government terms and why? I support the referendum to give the citizens of Thomasville the power to make decisions regarding the way in which their leaders are elected. Likewise, if voters select two- or four-year terms, I feel it would be beneficial if these terms were staggered in order to have more continuity in government. For example, if such terms aren’t staggered, it is possible for all council members to be changed during any one election. This, in my opinion, wouldn’t be beneficial to the citizens of the city of Thomasville.

Thomasville residents have many ways to voice opinions This letter is in response to a letter by Terry Hill published in Your View on Oct. 17 (“Thomasville residents need voice in mayor’s office”). If Hill thinks we

are not offering a voice to our citizens, why hasn’t he told us that at any of the five town hall meetings we have conducted in the past two years? I believe that this City Council is more open than previous councils. Citizens can search the city Web site for meeting agendas and minutes of previous meetings. In City Hall there are hard copies of agendas, minutes and progress charts on council-initiated projects. Citizens have several means to communicate with council and mayor: e-mail, phone, attend a committee meeting, attend a town hall meeting, sign up for the public forum or submit a request to address the council if more time is needed. The easiest way to get a back and forth discussion with the council is to attend a committee meeting or town hall meeting. My phone lines are always open to the citizens of Thomasville, and any

message with a phone number is returned. The most qualified candidate for mayor of Thomasville is Joe Bennett. The mayor serves as an ambassador to our city, and Mayor Bennett promotes Thomasville everywhere he goes. He will stop to talk to you in the grocery store or out on the street, but most of the time you can find him in City Hall. Just go on in; the door is open.

News that outgoing Bank of America chief Ken Lewis will get docked his pay for 2009 isn’t likely to elicit many tears of sympathy from the public. Exorbitantly paid CEOs are the poster children for the business excesses, greed and poor judgment that helped bring the nation’s financial system to the brink of collapse. Their actions, among others, fueled the economic crisis that has left many Americans jobless and homeless. Some won’t agree with the decision of the Obama administration’s pay czar that Lewis deserves not a dime of salary. After all, BofA’s troubles were the result of bad decisions of many, including pressure from the federal government to proceed with the troubled Merrill Lynch deal when Lewis wanted to back out. But when you head a company, you are in charge. BofA’s problems, and the financial fallout, rest squarely on Lewis’ shoulders. The last quarter alone, BofA lost $2.2 billion, the bank announced recently. Ken Feinberg, appointed this summer to examine the compensation of executives at companies receiving federal bailout money, suggested Lewis get no pay. Lewis is retiring, and Feinberg said his retirement package and vested stock worth at least $69.3 million was enough. The bank said the pay master didn’t have the legal authority to “claw back” all the expected pay of $1.5 million. But Lewis and the bank agreed anyway. Amid regulatory battles over bonuses paid to Merrill employees and lack of disclosure of Merrill losses before BofA’s acquisition, one more fight with the feds over Lewis’ pay likely would have been unwise. This claw back should be a wake-up call to all companies that give their CEOs and other executives huge salaries, bonuses or golden parachutes when they leave – even as the companies flounder and fail. The other companies that received “exceptional assistance” – bailouts – from the government should especially take note. Feinberg already has AIG firmly in his sights, and rightly so. The company got billions in bailout dollars. A few months later, it doled out millions in bonuses to employees involved in the same kind of risk-taking that were a cause of some of the nation’s financial woes. And it gave the bonuses as the company faced further losses and was asking for more aid. Treasury officials said Feinberg’s actions should signal to companies that they need to strike the right balance “to discourage excessive risk taking and reward performance for their top executives.” That balance is sorely needed. His actions also are, as one university expert noted, a “signal to boardrooms” that boards are culpable and accountable when CEOs are paid exorbitantly even as their companies perform badly. They are. The days of wine and roses for executives who get big pay while their companies hit the skids must end. We don’t begrudge executives pay that rewards them for performance. But too many got rewarded for irresponsible risk-taking, and we taxpayers are underwriting the cleanup for their messes. Some claw back of that money is warranted.

Fuel storage blast rocks Puerto Rico capital SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico – An explosion at a fuel storage facility sent earthquake-force shock waves across Puerto Rico’s capital on Friday and created a tower of inky black smoke that forced airliners to alter flight paths. Seemingly miraculously, no one was reported killed. The early morning blast shook islanders out of bed across metropolitan San Juan and shattered windows across the bay in colonial Old San Juan, one of many neighborhoods where onlookers gaped at the thick smoke.

Iran to respond to U.N. nuclear proposal TEHRAN, Iran – Iran put off until next week a formal response to a U.N.-backed plan to ship much of its uranium to Russia for enrichment, the country’s nuclear envoy said Friday. The West sees the proposal as a way to curb Tehran’s alleged efforts to make nuclear weapons. Ali Asghar Soltanieh, Iran’s representative to the International Atomic Energy Agency, said Tehran is still studying the proposal and would inform the U.N. nuclear watchdog “next week.

U.S. drones protecting ships off Somalia NAIROBI, Kenya – For the first time, sophisticated U.S. military surveillance drones capable of carrying missiles have begun patrolling waters off Somalia in hopes of stemming rising piracy. Three ships have been seized in a week off Africa’s lawless eastern coast and Vice Adm. Robert Moeller, the deputy commander for the U.S. Africa Command, said pirates continue to pose a significant challenge.

Rights groups say no to Guantanamo visit SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico – Three human rights groups said Friday they will spurn an invitation to tour the Guantanamo Bay prison next month because it doesn’t include an opportunity to speak with prisoners. Amnesty International USA, the American Civil Liberties Union and Human Rights Watch all said the recent Defense Department invitation falls short of the full access to the prison at the U.S. base in Cuba that they jointly requested.

ISLAMABAD (AP) – A suicide bomber on a bicycle attacked a major Pakistani air base on Friday, killing seven people in an escalating campaign that strikes at the heart of this nuclear-armed nation’s security forces. The strike was one of three bombings in northwest Pakistan that killed 24 people and wounded at least 28 as the army pushed a seven-day offensive deeper into al-Qaida and Taliban territory close to the Afghan border. About 200 people have been killed this month in a string of militant attacks on military, police and civilian targets nationwide. The onslaught is undermining confidence in the U.S-backed government and risks sapping public support.

RAMALLAH, West Bank – The Palestinian president signed a decree on Friday calling for presidential and parliamentary elections on Jan. 24, a move likely to deepen the rift with the rival militant Hamas movement that rules the Gaza Strip. Mahmoud Abbas’ decree was expected after reconciliation talks between his Fatah movement and rival Hamas failed this week. A deal would have postponed the vote until June.

Attorney says 10 Commandments displays in Kentucky are legal

R. Crumb zaps the Book of Genesis in latest work LOS ANGELES (AP) – His religious upbringing might well be as unorthodox as the psychedelic-inspired comic-strip characters that have made R. Crumb the most famous underground artist of his time. Which, come to think of it, may have made Crumb the perfect artist for his latest project, an illustrated, comic-book version of “The Book of Genesis,� the work that comprises the first 50 chapters of the Bible. Raised in a secular household that was headed by a rigidly strict, exMarine father who was actually a closeted atheist, Crumb was sent off to Catholic school at age 6 because his father had always admired the discipline Catholic nuns were famous for instilling in their students. “We never got a lot of religion at home,� Crumb says of himself and his siblings. “But we certainly got the whole indoctri-

nation and brainwashing in school.� Sixty years later, the creator of comic book characters like the R-rated Fritz the Cat and the bizarre Mr. Natural has finally put that religious training to good use. “The Book of Genesis Illustrated by R. Crumb� was published last month, and on Oct. 24 the stunningly detailed, beautifully crafted blackand-white drawings that comprise its 201 pages will go on display at Los Angeles’ Hammer Museum. After the exhibition closes in February it will move on to other cities, including New York and Portland, Ore., a circumstance that has the normally circumspect Crumb shaking his head in disbelief. “The Bible! Jesus! Incredible,� Crumb says in a voice filled with awe as he reflects on the project that has consumed the last five years of his life. Indeed, the project

and who by his own admission owes much of his artistic inspiration to his extensive use of LSD in the 1960s, take on the Bible? “It’s kind of complicated,� Crumb guffaws during a phone interview from his home in the south of France.

CINCINNATI (AP) – Attorneys for two southern Kentucky counties contend that their planned courthouse display of the Ten Commandments is for educational and historical purposes. Their new argument in the 10-year dispute follows a 2005 U.S. Supreme Court decision that McCreary and Pulaski counties had a predominantly religious purpose for the display. However, the court has also ruled that religious materials could be allowed as part of an educational or historical display. The counties’ lawyer told a three-judge panel of the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of

Appeals in conference call arguments that the revised display the counties want to use satisfies the high court’s requirement. “They have done everything possible to wipe away the past,� said attorney Mathew Staver. “They have indicated their purpose is completely and wholly secular.� The display titled “Foundations of American Law and Government,� also has the Declaration of Independence, the Star-Spangled Banner, the Bill of Rights and other historical documents. Staver said rulings in courts since 2005 have upheld the same display elsewhere.

Watchman Nee puts definition to ideas S

ometimes Christians use words and phrases which they only kinda-sorta understand. Fortunately, a Chinese Christian named Watchman Nee has given a very good description of two of these phrases/words: the Blood of Christ and the Cross. So first an introduction to the fascinating Watchman Nee; then his definition of these ideas which might help you understand them better; and finally, a concise way to remember mercy and grace. Watchman Nee (1903-1972), whose Chinese name was Nee Shu-tsu, was born in China to Christian parents. Nee became a Christian at the age of 17 (in 1920), and changed his first name to To-sheng, which in Chinese means “watchman’s rattle”; he explained that he considered himself God’s watchman in the night. He began writing Christian literature that same year. He founded a number of churches plus began a Christian publishing house and

a Christian magazine. Eventually he wrote 154 books, according to the Web site www.watchmannee.org. In addition, his personal library ran to a total of 3000 Christian books. STUDYING In 1952, Nee was arTHE CHURCH rested as a Christian and for being a leader in churches and the comMark munity during the rise of Nickens the Communist Cultural ■■■ Revolution under Mao Tse-Tung. He was sentenced in 1956 to 15 years imprisonment, although he remained in prison until his death 16 years later. His best known word is called The Normal Christian Life. It is not really a book but a collection of sermons he gave. The following is an excerpt, which includes a good brief definition of the Blood of Jesus and the Cross:

“In the first part of Romans 1 to 8, we twice have reference to the Blood of the Lord Jesus, in 3:25 and in 5:9. In the second [part of Romans 1 to 8], a new idea is introduced in 6:6, where we are said to have been “crucified” with Christ. The argument of the first part gathers around that aspect of the work of the Lord Jesus which is represented by “the Blood” shed for our justification through “the remission of sins.” This terminology is, however, not carried on into the second section, where the argument centers now in the aspect of his work represented by “the Cross,” that is to say, by our union with Christ in his death, burial, and resurrection. This distinction is a valuable one. We shall see [in later chapters] that the Blood deals with what we have done, whereas the Cross deals with what we are. The Blood disposes of our sins, while the Cross strikes at the root of our capacity for sin.” To expand on this idea, Nee states that by Jesus’ death he performed two

actions. The blood he shed was in response to one’s actual sins and satisfied the demand for blood sacrifice when one sinned, found in the Old Testament. The death on the cross, burial, and resurrection was in response to the separation humans have from God; this is healed in Christ. Therefore, Nee believes that humanity had two deficits before God: individual sins committed in disobedience and separation from God; Christ satisfied both. Now about mercy and grace. I did not come up with these definitions but heard them at seminary while working on my master of divinity degree. Mercy is not receiving what you deserve; Grace is receiving what you don’t deserve. So, we receive mercy from God in that we are forgiven our sins, and we receive grace in that God cares for us in spite of our disobedience to Him. QUESTIONS/COMMENTS contact Mark at www. drnickens.com; other summaries available there.

Reading brightens the autumn and winter months T

hose of us who live in the Northern Hemisphere are beginning to see a change in the number of daylight hours. Some days in some areas we cannot do much outside, but it is a perfect time to sit with good books and read. Reading books, whatever your choices, could be a wise investment of your time. Here are a few possibilities. In June, I listened to a handsome young man Patrick Nachtigall speak, and I talked personally with him and his beautiful wife Jamie. Nachtigall traveled to over 40 countries listening, asking questions, recording observations and making assessments as to what is going on in a world that, at times, seems to be terribly confused and on the brink of self-destruction. You will enjoy his book “Passport

of Faith,” which describes a Christian’s encounter with world religions. Look for it in your local bookstore or call Warner Press at SHARING 1 (877) 346-3974. It is an eye-opening THE SPIRIT book. Jeffrey A. JohnBill son has written Ellis one of the most interesting and unusual books I have ever read. Even the front cover gets your attention. The title is “Got Style? Personalitybased Evangelism.” If you are interested in what the church is doing or not doing, you will discover this book to be filled with practical information and you will wonder how you ever got along without it. A Judson Press publication available

wherever books are sold. Biographies always capture my attention. S. Truett Cathy and I met at the dedication of the Billy Graham Library in Charlotte. His book, “Eat Mor Chikin: Inspire More People,” is the story of a significant part of his highly successful life as a businessman and founder of Chick-fil-A. Looking Glass Books, Decatur, Ga., published this enjoyable and challenging read. I always keep it close by. It’s as filling, satisfying and delicious as his popular chicken. Jonathan Falwell is one of the outstanding young preachers of our day. He is the son of Jerry and Macel Falwell, two of the best-known religious leaders of the past 50 years. Chuck Colson says, “You will meet in these pages one of the young Christian leaders who I think has a great future.” A

publication of Howard Books, a division of Simon & Schuster. Frank Coppenbarger, traveling secretary of the Phillies, and J. Thomas McNamara, sports editor of The Decatur Tribune, Decatur, Ill., together wrote “From Fans Field to Philadelphia . . . With a Few Stops Along the Way.” It is the story of Coppenbarger’s 40-year trip from minor league bat boy to prominence with the National League Champions. Books are our windows to the world. They let the sunshine and fresh air into our minds and hearts. I’d like to know what you are reading. Never complain during the winter months when it may be cold, snow piled high and you are shut in. Pick up a book, something hot to drink, put on a sweater or wrap up in a blanket and take an unforgettable trip into the land of reading.

You’ll be much wiser and more informed by doing so. The last book of the Bible offers this advice and promise. “Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of this prophecy ... ”(1:3) For the most thrilling and life-changing read of your life begin with Genesis (1:1) and thoughtfully read it all through to Revelation (22:21) and you’ll learn more than you would ever learn in four years at any college or university. That is a promise, but you’ll never know until you read it all. The best and least expensive place to purchase Bibles in quantity for churches, schools and businesses is from BibleSurplus.com and they pay the shipping. BILL ELLIS, P. O. Box 345, Scott Depot, WV 25560 | (304) 757-6089

The God of my rock; in him will I trust: he is my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower, and my refuge, my saviour; thou savest me from violence.

Joy Joy is the second grace mentioned by St. Paul as a fruit of the Spirit. Joy is a translation of the Greek word “chara,” which can be rendered as joy, gladness, or delight. The Greek verb “charein” means “to rejoice.” Throughout the Bible, there are many and varied occurrences of joy and rejoicing. For instance, we are told repeatedly in the Psalms to “Rejoice in the Lord.” (Cf. Psalms 33, 35, and 97) And Jesus tells us that He has come to bring joy: “These things I have spoken to you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full.” (John 15:11) We are repeatedly told that following God’s commandments and having faith that God will save us, brings joy. Indeed, it is joyful to know that we are doing God’s will, that our sins are truly forgiven, and that salvation awaits us. This is the real joy which abides in us despite the ups and downs of our external circumstances or even our momentary mood swings. And although we may not always feel the elation of being on top of the mountain, if we keep our faith and trust in the Lord, we will always have the bedrock of joy to sustain us. May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope.

AT A GLANCE

–

HIGH POINT – Several local human service groups have banded together in an effort aimed at coordinating assistance for people in need. The Community Resource Network officially got off the ground Sept. 1. The initiative is billed as the first attempt that outreach agencies have made in High Point to cover the entire city with an emergency delivery system network. “We don’t have all the funds that we need. We don’t have all the bugs worked out, but that’s the direction we’re heading – trying to do a better job of serving our community by coordinating our efforts,” said Wanda Dellinger, coordinator for the network. “It came about because clients were having to go from place to place to

a problem, what are the reasons for it?” she said. “If they have a high electric bill this month, is there some work that needs to be done on their house to try to make it more energy efficient? In other words, develop relationships and dig beyond just the surface.” The network distributes pooled funds to where needs are most urgent. Those involved with the network say they realize not all of the sites will be able to do all things for all clients and will therefore provide referrals when appropriate. “Hopefully, the idea is this becomes a win-win situation – agencies use their resources more effectively and efficiently, and clients would be able to develop relationships and be served better,” Dellinger said. pkimbrough@hpe.com | 888-3531

Low and slow Lexington is not the only place cooking barbecue this weekend. Roger Ozment turns one of the 15 shoulders that were served along with 400 hot dogs Friday night at the Trinity-Wheatmore football game. The Wheatmore Athletic Boosters club cooked the food, and part of the proceeds will be donated to COAT.

Members of Faith Baptist Church in Archdale today will be distributing bags and flyers for Halloween food collection. Canned food will be collected Oct. 31 by youth and college-age members of the church. All food collected will be given to C.O.A.T. (Community Outreach Archdale-Trinity), and church officials hope other churches will join them in collecting canned goods for C.O.A.T. Anyone wishing to donate canned goods to the cause can bring them to the home of Tommy and Trisha Poland, 5017 Westhaven Lane, Trinity, between 6 p.m. and midnight on Oct. 31.

Library lends books to Oak Ridge students ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

HIGH POINT – First and second grade students from Oak Ridge Elementary School have 370 children’s books from the High Point Public Library to enjoy for the next few weeks. The library agreed to lend the books to the children a few weeks ago, said Kem Ellis, library director, after Guilford County Board of Education member Darlene Garrett and former board member Dot Kearns contacted him. The children are attending Oak Ridge Military Academy while their school is under renovations to address environmental concerns. “These

300 students do not have access to age-appropriate books while their classrooms are relocated at the academy, so we were asked to help,” Ellis said. Jim Zola, head of the library’s children’s services, and Ann Kraft, principal of Oak Ridge Elementary School, crafted a plan to make collections of books available in each of the first and second grade classes. Each classroom teacher will receive a box of books with a list of enclosed titles which can be used to “check out” books to the students to read at school or take home and then return. The teachers have been encouraged to trade their boxes of books

YOUR COMMUNITY. YOUR NEWSPAPER.

among themselves so their students get a new set of books every few weeks. The students probably will use the books until their Christmas break in December, after which they expect to be able to return to Oak Ridge Elementary. The boxes of books were delivered to Oak Ridge Military Academy last week. “I had to weigh the possibility that some books would not make it back to our library,” Ellis said. “I finally decided that, although I want to be a good steward of the library’s resources, it is more important to be a good steward of our children.”

In this Nov. 17, 1966 file photo, Soupy Sales rehearses for his Broadway debut in “Come Live With Me” in New York.

Comedian Soupy Sales dies at 83 DETROIT (AP) – Soupy Sales, the rubber-faced comedian whose anything-fora-chuckle career was built on 20,000 pies to the face and 5,000 live TV appearances across a half-century of laughs, has died. He was 83. Sales died Thursday night at Calvary Hospice in the Bronx, New York, said his former manager and longtime friend, Dave Usher. Sales had many health problems and entered the hospice last week, Usher said. At the peak of his fame in the 1950s and ’60s, Sales was one of the best-known faces in the nation, Usher said. “He was just good to people,” said Usher, a former jazz music producer who managed Sales in the 1950s and now owns Detroit-based Marine Pollution Control. Sales began his TV career in Cincinnati and Cleveland, then moved to Detroit, where he drew a large audience on WXYZ-TV. He moved to Los Angeles in 1961. The comic’s piethrowing schtick became his trademark, and celebrities lined up to take one on the chin alongside Sales. Sales was born Milton Supman on Jan. 8, 1926, in Franklinton, N.C., where his was the only Jewish family in town. His parents, owners of a dry-goods store, sold sheets to the Ku Klux Klan. The family later moved to Huntington, W.Va.

‘Too Kill a Mockingbird’ actress dies HIGHLANDS (AP) – Actress Collin WilcoxPaxton, who portrayed the false accuser in the movie classic “To Kill a Mockingbird,” died Oct. 14. She was 74. Wilcox-Paxton, who had brain cancer, died in Highlands in the southwest part of North Carolina, her husband, Scott Paxton, confirmed Thursday. She was diagnosed Aug. 11 with three brain tumors, he said. The actress played Mayella Ewell in the movie based on Harper Lee’s Pulitzer-winning novel. Her role as the young white woman who accuses a black man of beating and raping her in her home was brief but memorable.

ear Abby: I was raised from an early age that if you play a game, you have to play fair and obey the rules. Those rules were never bent regardless of what the game was or who we played with. Over the years I have played games with many people, and while I realize it’s possible for people to play the same game slightly differently, the rules still applied. What I don’t understand is cheating. A couple I know allow their children to play games with adults and let them cheat. What they’re doing is obvious, and their parents even joke about it. I no longer enjoy playing with this family, but I don’t know what to do or say. I have tried to subtly discourage and stop the deceptions, but I don’t want to seem like a sore loser. Any suggestions? – Plays By the Rules, Urbana, Ohio Dear Plays By the Rules: Yes. Do not play games with the family if the children are involved. It’s not about being a sore loser; it’s about not being a chump. By allowing their children to ignore the “rules,” these parents are sending the message that rules don’t apply to them. Because the children cheat when they play with you, it’s safe to assume that they think it’s acceptable to do it with other kids. And when their contemporaries realize what’s going on, who do you think won’t be allowed to join their games – or anything else? Look at it this way: From little cheaters, big cheaters grow.

ter-in-law has just informed me that she doesn’t think it is as important for her ADVICE daughters to attend Dear college as it Abby is her sons. ■■■ My mother-inlaw recently made a crack about my finances because she knows I’m paying off my student loans for two degrees. My father-in-law can’t understand what “all the fuss is about” now that my oldest daughter is preparing for college. Abby, I have friends in their 30s and 40s who, for one reason or another, are single women supporting themselves. Even some who have degrees are struggling, but they are able to own their own homes because they are able to earn decent salaries. What should I say when my mother-in-law and sister-in-law put me down for higher learning? Neither of them went to college or has ever worked. They would be on welfare if they didn’t have their husbands’ income. By the way, I’m not having any problem paying back my student loans, and my husband is proud of my accomplishments. – Educated in Tennessee Dear Educated: Your mother-in-law and sisterin-law are misguided. They do not understand

the financial realities that exist for women today because they have never been exposed to them. Nothing that you can say to them will change their mind-set.

So rather than respond to their naive comments, take every opportunity to encourage your nieces to pursue their educations so they can live independent lives.

Blood glucose, triglyceride, fatty acid, cholesterol and liver fat levels also were lower. Another researcher, Dr. Lydia A. Bazzano of Tulane University in New Orleans, suggests that to lower cholesterol, we should consume at least three cups of dry beans and peas, or legumes, a week to help to lower cholesterol levels. In her study, total cholesterol in those who ate a legume-rich diet for at least three weeks dropped by an average of 14 points compared to those on placebo. LDL cholesterol dropped by an average of 11 points more in the group eating lots of beans. The moral of these research studies may be to eat a bowl of beans sprinkled with curcumin and sip a pot of hibiscus tea throughout the winter.

DEARBORN, Mich. (AP) – A Lego-inspired exhibit has opened at the Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn. “Lego Castle Adventure” runs through Jan. 3. The family-focused exhibit includes a suit of armor, a dragon and models of castles made out of Lego blocks. Activities include jousting using foam-rubber lances and, of course, Lego building. Lego colored plastic building blocks have

Curcumin is a bioactive component in curry and turmeric that has been consumed daily in Asian countries for centuries without reported toxic effects. The study was led by nutritionist Mohsen Meydani at the Jean Mayer USDA Human Nutrition Research Center on Aging (HNRCA) at Tufts. Meydani is director of the HNRCA’s Vascular Biology Laboratory. According to the news release, eighteen mice were assigned to three groups of six mice each. For 12 weeks, the mice were fed special diets. A “control” group’s mix contained 4 percent fat, a “high fat” group’s mix contained 22 percent fat, and another group was fed the same “high fat” diet supplemented with curcumin. A mouse typically eats about 3,000 to 3,500 milligrams (the weight of about six or seven paper clips) daily, so the curcumin-supplemented mice would have consumed about 1.5 to 1.75 milligrams of curcumin daily – a relatively small amount. The curcumin-treated group also had less blood vessel growth in fat tissue.

s cooler weather approaches and most of us become less physically active without hot weather outdoor activities to stimulate us, gaining some extra body weight can often be a fact of life. We also know that with weight gain, blood pressure as well as unhealthy cholesterol can rise in our bodies. Recent research suggests maybe a good bowl of pinto beans and some hot tea will counteract it all. In a new study, drinking three cups of herbal tea containing hibiscus each day lowered blood pressure. “Most of the commercial herbal tea blends in the United States contain hibiscus,” says Diane L. McKay, Ph.D., of Tufts University in Boston. Overall, drinking blends of hibiscus tea lowered systolic blood pressure – the top number in the blood pressure reading – by an average of 7 points. The study was sponsored by the ARS which is the main research agency for the U.S. Department of Agriculture. In a clinical trial, McKay tested 65 volunteers, ages 30 to 70, whose systolic blood pressure was 120 to 150 and whose diastolic blood pressure was 95 or less at the start of the study. Blood

TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES

This week’s deals have treated waiting to draw trumps – which, for one reason or another, may be anywhere from advisable to mandatory. Cover the East-West cards and decide on your play at four spades after West leads the jack of hearts, won by your king. Before you attack the trumps or do anything else, count your losers and plan your play. You have three unavoidable losers: the ace of trumps, ace of clubs and a diamond. You also have a heart loser but may be able to establish a second club winner for a heart discard.

SECOND TRICK If you lead a trump at the second trick, the defenders can win and continue hearts, setting up their heart trick before you’ve seen to your discard. Therefore, lead a club to dummy’s queen at Trick Two. East takes the ace and returns a heart, and you win, go to the ace of diamonds and try a club to your ten. You risk a second undertrick, but when the ten wins, you discard dummy’s last heart on the king. You can then start the trumps safely.

DAILY QUESTION You hold: S Q 9 8 4 H 7 4 3 D A 5 3 2 C Q 5. Dealer, at your left, opens one heart. Your partner doubles, you bid one spade and he raises to two spades. What do you say? ANSWER: If your hand were any stronger -- make your queen of clubs the king – you’d have been worth a game invitation and would have jumped to two spades at your first turn. Your actual response promised no values, but partner raised, showing at least 17 points. Bid four spades. South dealer Neither side vulnerable

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

D

ear Dr. Donohue: I played highschool football in the late 1940s. One of my teammates died during a game. The memory has never left me. It was said he had a heart attack, but that sounds preposterous to me. He was only 16. My two grandsons are playing now. What kind of physical exams are required? In my day it was a check for a hernia and that was all. – B.G.

BLONDIE

Sudden death in a high-school or college athlete, the healthiest of the healthy, is shocking and tragic. It happens about 115 times every year in the U.S. to those between the ages of 12 and 23. Most of these athletes died from an inherited heart disorder called cardiomyopathy. That’s an enlarged heart whose muscle fibers are arranged in such a helter-skelter manner that they generate abnormal heartbeats. The beats can be so erratic that they stop heart pumping. Your teammate more than likely had such a condition, rather than a heart attack. Medical exams are required for all school athletics. The extent of the exam varies from state to state and province to province. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy gives rise to a heart murmur, which should be detected in an exam but might be ignored or not heard. A pre-participation exam must be thorough. The doctor has to learn

of the athlete’s and his family’s medical history. Relatives who died HEALTH at an age younger Dr. Paul than 50 Donohue raise the ■■■ suspicion of inherited heart problems. The youngsters should be questioned about a family history of seizures, drowning or near drowning – another tip for heart problems. They should be asked if they ever had chest pain when they’re active or if they fainted or came close to fainting during activity. The doctor needs to know if they become out of breath before their teammates. Whether an EKG should be part of the exam is a question that is unsettled. The American Heart Association says no, but the European Society of Cardiology says yes. Dear Dr. Donohue: Many athletes undergo a procedure known as Tommy John surgery. Will you expound on it? What’s the underlying problem? How about symptoms? What’s the cause? How necessary and extensive is postop rehabilitation? – S.G. Tommy John was a pitcher for the Los Angeles Dodgers. In 1974, his career was coming

to an end because he had torn an important elbow ligament, the ulnar collateral ligament. It’s a fairly common throwing injury, happening mostly to pitchers but not exclusively. The ligament keeps the elbow stable. It’s subject to a great deal of force in the throwing motion. Many professional and amateur pitchers have torn this ligament. The symptoms are pain on movement and a loss of throwing power. The cause is the number of pitches thrown. Less important but contributing is the type of pitches thrown. Dr. Frank Jobe, a famous orthopedic surgeon, devised the operation that saved Tommy John’s career. He transplanted a tendon from another site to the elbow. The tendon replaced the torn ligament. The operation has been repeated on many athletes ever since, and it has a success rate of about 90 percent. A full year is given to rehabilitation, which is almost as important as the surgery. Many pitchers find that their throwing speed has increased after the operation and rehabilitation.

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.

PREP FOOTBALL TRINITY 76 WHEATMORE 0

BY STEVE HANF ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER

HIGH POINT – First, T. Wingate Andrews scored after a bad punt. Then the Red Raiders scored after a bad turnover ... and again after a bad decision ... and again on what would play out as the nicest drive of an ugly night for both teams. In the end, Andrews walked out of Simeon Stadium on Friday with a 54-3 romp over Randleman that did little to excite players, coaches or fans entering Thursday’s firstplace showdown at Simeon against Carver. “We’re just ready to get on to the main event, go 100 percent there,” said Vashon Dawkins, who finished with 70 yards on 15 carries in three quarters of limited action. “We looked at this as a practice, really.” Which is not to say the Raiders (6-3, 3-0 PAC-6 2A) didn’t play at 100 percent Friday. Andrews followed a 15-yard punt by the Tigers with a nine-play, 39-yard drive capped by a Marquez Swinton QB keeper from 4 yards out at the 7:02 mark of the first quarter. Sidney Hayes stepped in front of a Kyle Farlow pass moments later and returned it 41 yards for a TD. After the defense got a fourth-down stop at the Randleman 27, Andrews scored three plays later on Brandon Mack’s 1-yard plunge set up by a 24yard pass from Swinton to Astute Evans. Tack on three Quan Stevenson PATs and it was 21-0 after the first. “The defense focused on setting the tone all week and that’s what happened in the first half,” said Hayes, whose night also included a fumble recovery. “We talked about shutout all week and that’s what we got.” So that field goal doesn’t really count? “Nah,” Hayes replied with a smile. The Tigers (1-8, 0-3) got their 36yard boot from Jacob Bishop early in the second quarter, but could do nothing to stop the Raiders. Andrews managed that enough on its own, committing 10 penalties for 85 yards in the second quarter alone. Then again, perhaps the penalties helped keep the score a little more on the respectable side. Xavier Quick scored from 15 yards out after Darrell Tucker’s 56-yard dash got Andrews close on its first drive of the third quarter. Dawkins made it 41-3 midway through the third with a 2-yard plunge. Final scores in a second-half filled with turnovers, more penalties and lengthy discussions from the officiating crew – including the ejection of Tigers coach Shane Handy at the 3:33 mark of the third quarter – came from Antonio Watts (6yard run) and Jared Taborn (1-yard plunge after a 52-yard dash). Randleman finished with six turnovers and eight first downs. shanf@hpe.com | 888-3526

What nearly became a thrilling rally quickly turned sour, however, and as Drew Adams’ final pass of the night fell short on 4th-and-19 from the Bobcat 29, so to did an inspired Bison effort in a grueling 14-7 Bobcats victory. “We moved the ball well, we just didn’t make plays when we needed to,” Central coach Wayne Jones said. “You’ve got to execute. That’s not to take anything away from (the Bobcats). They did a great job.” The Bison came up inches short on a key 4thand-1 with the game tied 7-7 and 6:27 remaining in the fourth quarter, turning the ball over to the Glenn offense at midfield. It took the Bobcats just one play to break the stalemate. Tailback Josh Hawkins took the first handoff of the ensuing possession 50 yards to give Glenn the 14-7 advantage. “That was it,” Bobcats coach Dickie Cline said of the game-changing play. “We’re not a

flashy team. Our strategy is to control the ball. We’re not going to gamble until we have to gamble.” Neither team had to gamble early, as the first half was dominated by defense. Central logged just 88 yards of total offense and the Bobcats countered with only 130. The lone offensive bright spots came on a pair of impressive touchdown drives sandwiched between three-and-outs. Following a meticulous nine-play, 59-yard drive from Glenn in the second quarter, the Bison quickly answered with a touchdown of their own. Adams set up Central’s first score with a 45-yard run that brought the Bison inside the Glenn 30 before Al-daquan Teasley closed the drive with a 4-yard run to tie the score 7-7 just before the half. There will be no rest for the weary, however, as Glenn’s victory simply sets up yet another matchup of unbeatens. This time, the Bobcats (8-1, 4-0 PTC) must leave the friendly confines of Winston-Salem and travel to Ragsdale on Friday in what will likely determine the Piedmont Triad 4A Conference champion.

Mistakes doom Cowboys in 47-28 loss BY JASON QUEEN SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE

HIGH POINT – Southwest Guilford was hoping to gun its way into playoff contention in a key Piedmont Triad 4A Conference tilt with East Forsyth on Friday. Instead, the Cowboys kept shooting themselves in the foot. Darrell Anderson returned a tipped ball interception 40 yards for a touchdown with three seconds left in the first half, typifying the Cowboys’ night in a 47-28 loss to the Eagles. East Forsyth put it away with three unanswered TDs in the third quarter, the final nail coming on Ray McCloud’s 41-yard run on a fake punt. “Take nothing away from East Forsyth,” Southwest coach Scott Schwarzer said. “But we gave them 20 points. It’s frustrating. We just can’t seem to

get over the hump. We make too many mistakes.” Southwest fell to 0-4 in the league and 3-6 overall with its sixth straight loss. East moved to 2-2, 4-5. Eagles workhorse B.J. McKeever scored from a yard out on fourth down to make it 7-0 midway through the first quarter. McKeever’s touchdown capped a 13-play, 74-yard drive for East that took nearly six minutes off the clock. On their next possession, the Eagles got a controversial touchdown to take a 13-0 advantage. On fourth-and-12 from Southwest’s 33 yard line, quarterback Erick Smith lofted a jump ball to the front of the end zone for Jacob Watts. But in a scrum, Southwest’s Greg Bridges came up from the pile with the ball and held it high in the air, only to have the officials be-

hind him signaling touchdown. “I thought our guy had it,” Schwarzer said. “It was on the far side of the field, but I thought he came down with it.” Southwest got on the board with a 26-yard TD pass from Davis Inman to Bridges, cutting the deficit to 13-7. After Southwest forced East to punt on its next possession, the Cowboys went to work with 20 seconds left in the half. Hoping for a miracle, disaster struck instead. Inman’s short pass in the middle of the field fell right in Anderson’s hands, and he outran everybody to the end zone to deflate the Cowboys. E. Forsyth SW Guilford

C. DAVIDSON EAST DAVIDSON

es, Virginia, there is a clear path to the ACC Coastal Division championship. In a loaded division in which Georgia Tech, Virginia Tech, Miami and North Carolina grabbed most of the early-season headlines, the Cavaliers lead the way with a 2-0 conference mark. To rule the Coastal roost, all the Cavs (3-3, 2-0) have to do is close the regular season with six straight ACC victories. Easier said than done. Virginia opens that ACC gauntlet today at home against Georgia Tech (6-1, 4-1). The Yellow Jackets established themselves as the

latest Coastal team to beat with Saturday’s impressive 28-23 victory over Virginia Tech (5-2, 3-1), the previous popular Coastal pick to click. Miami (5-1, 2-1) also figures in the mix, and it’s not impossible to see a road to the Coastal crown for Duke (3-3, 1-1) or even UNC (4-3, 0-3). But Virginia owns the most direct line to the top. The Cavs play host to Georgia Tech, then entertain Duke, go to Miami, play host to Boston College, visit Clemson and close at home against Virginia Tech. That’s a tough row to hoe.

But keep in mind that Virginia has defeated Georgia Tech eight straight times in Charlottesville and five of the last six overall. Take that one and follow with a victory over Duke and the Cavs carry a five-game winning streak to Miami. Win there and the Cavs finish with two of their last three at home. Whatever happens the rest of the way, Virginia’s 0-3 start – including a 26-14 loss to FCS member William & Mary to open the season – seems a distant memory now.

Spartans clip East BY ELIOT DUKE THOMASVILLE TIMES

LEXINGTON – A sparring match between East Davidson and Central Davidson at Spartan Community Stadium turned into a slugfest Friday night. The Spartans landed the knockout in a 21-14 Central Carolina Conference victory. “We were just sparring with each other in the first half to get a feel for what each other was doing,” EDHS coach Bryan Lingerfelt said. “They were able to make some adjustments and we hurt ourselves a bit with some turnovers. It was a pretty good football game.” Central improved to 4-5, 1-2 in the Central Carolina 2A Conference. East fell to 4-5, 1-2. Central’s Tyler Lequire scored from 13 yards out with 7:15 to go, breaking a 14-14 tie in a game where the lead changed three times. Lequire’s run capped a pivotal Spartans drive that answered East’s biggest play of the night. Tied at seven, CDHS, after a poor snap on a punt led to good field position, needed just three plays to snap the deadlock. Kirk Brown hit Brett Woodard on a quick slant from 26 yards out for a 14-7 Spartan lead. “I think the big thing that hurt us was our kicking game and giving up field position,” said Lingerfelt. “We did not field their punts and they were able to keep us pinned back. That made it extremely difficult and their defense was able to really come after us. They’re a good defensive team.”

The Golden Eagles had an answer. On the first play of the fourth quarter, Taylor Warren found Blake Dodd on a bootleg-pass down the right sideline for a 51-yard touchdown, squaring the contest again. “Give credit to them, they were able to rise up and meet our score,” Lingerfelt said. “You hate for anyone to lose a game like that.” East took its opening possession 57 yards to the end zone, throwing just three passes during the 11-play march. Gallimore carried the ball seven times for 25 yards, including a 2-yard touchdown that put the Golden Eagles ahead midway through the opening quarter. East’s offense all but vanished after that, however, as the Golden Eagles failed to pick up another first down in the first half. “We didn’t have an answer for them defensively,” Lingerfelt said. “They draw you in and when you get of position they hurt you. That’s part it.” Central had equal success running the ball and the Spartans finally finished a drive off late in the second quarter. After seeing two drives into East territory stall, Central knotted the game on Kirk Brown’s 1-yard quarterback keeper and ensuing extra point kick with 2:11 left before the half.

Trinity topples Wheatmore ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORTS

Thomasville shreds West Davidson BY ZACH ZEPLEY THOMASVILLE TIMES

TYRO – The beat goes on for the Thomasville defense. The Bulldogs pitched their fourth straight shutout while pounding West Davidson 42-0 Friday night at Glosson Stadium. It was not a blowout of the prettiest proportions, but was certainly one that THS will take. In a game highlighted by big plays and an incredible amount of penalties, Thomasville pushed its record to 5-4 on the year and remains undefeated in the Central Carolina Conference at 3-0. West dips to 2-7, 0-3. “The difference between these two clubs is not as much as it looked on the scoreboard,” said coach Allen Brown. “West Davidson is much more competitive. It just kind of snowballed for them.” Thomasville was pinned at its own 2yard line to start its opening drive, but had little trouble getting field position. Thomasville used its run-first offense to march the ball down the field behind Kesean Green and a key third-down pass play from Sam Nelson to Donovan Merchant. Facing third-and-4 to earn a fresh set of downs, Quin Riley got 65. He took the pitch left from Nelson and

bounced outside, racing down the far sideline as he outran the defense. Lawson Hodges kicked the point after for a 7-0 advantage with 4:29 to play in the first quarter. Following a Bulldog fumble, Davonte Gordon-Hunter picked off a James McCandies pass at the 41 and returned it to the Green Dragon 6. Two plays later, Green pushed the ball in from the 2, extending the lead to 14-0. A Robert Davis sack on fourth down took care of any hopes of the Dragons scoring on their next drive, and Nelson then hit Brandon Lucas on an 86yard strike. When the next West drive stalled at the 19, West tried to get points with a field goal, but it resulted in more points for the Bulldogs. James Boyd broke through the line and got a paw on the ball, and Tevin Davis scooped it up to rush 80 yards to paydirt, making it 28-0 at the half. “It was a big-play game,” said Brown. “We got a lot of big plays to go our way.” Lucas added a rushing touchdown, and Nelson connected with Vince Gobble to close out the THS scoring in the second half. Thomasville entertains Salisbury next Friday in a game that will decide the CCC championship.

Panthers rally past Comets BY TONY BOLICK SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE

ASHEBORO – Ledford coach Chuck Henderson felt his team was not ready to play after pre-game warmups, and the Panthers showed it Friday, trailing by two scores at the half to Asheboro. But the second half belonged to the Panthers, who rallied on three Jonathan Shelton touchdowns and shut down the Blue Comets with only 64 yards total offense – including two turnovers and two fourth-down stops – to rally for a 21-13 victory at Lee J. Stone Stadium. “We didn’t answer the bell,” Henderson said. “Halftime, we didn’t do a lot of fussing. The kids believed the second half in what we were doing and it took making some plays on offense to get everybody going.” Senior running back Dmitri Faglier, who finished with 153 of AHS’ 165 yard on the ground, had a an opportunity to give his team a chance to tie. At the AHS 44, Faglier took the handoff and spun out of a pile of players into open space with two blockers and only one

Panther defender between him and open field. But Faglier had lost his helmet in the scrum and state rules call the play dead when a ball carrier does not have a helmet. Instead, he only got a 1-yard gain, and a holding penalty would eventually force AHS to punt it away with 3 minutes to play. Ledford then ran the clock down to less than 20 seconds. “That’s huge,” Henderson said. “Sometimes those breaks get you and sometimes you’re a victim of it.” Ledford took the third-quarter kickoff and marched 81 yards on 12 plays with Shelton carrying it in from the 3 for their first score. After AHS fumbled on its third play, Shelton scored three plays later when he took the swing pass from Steven Fuquay and slipped down the sideline for the 34-yard touchdown. The extra point put Ledford ahead for good.

Newman slows Johnson express BY GREER SMITH ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER

MARTINSVILLE, Va. – For an afternoon, the Jimmie Johnson freight train detoured onto a side spur. Johnson, the hottest thing on the Cup circuit with three wins in five races to hold the points lead by 90 coming to a track where he has won five of the past six races, wasn’t a factor as the lineup was set for Sunday’s 500-lapper at Martinsville Speedway. He qualified a surprising 15th, while the guy who set the pace wasn’t a surprise and two of Johnson’s Hendrick Motorsports teammates and Chase pursuers were also near the top. Ryan Newman, who earned the named “Rocket Man� for his qualifying prowess, displayed he still has the talent by charging to a lap of 96.765 to edge Jeff Gordon by little more than five-hundreths of a second. Newman said he drove the car that he

steered in March when he got his first top-10 finish as a driver for Tony Stewart’s team and that the car has been sitting in the team’s shop since. “It was nice to get it back out,� Newman said. “The crew shines it up a little bit and bottom line it was a really good lap.� Gordon got the second spot by just two-thousandths of a second over Martin Truex Jr., who beat Mark Martin by onethousandth of a second for third. All four drove Chevrolets. “It helped a bit to go out later and see how Jeff and Mark ran, to see how the track was, and to see where I might make some gains on them,� Newman said. Newman, Gordon and Martin were the only Chase drivers in the top 12. Stewart was next in 13th. Johnson, who leads Martin by 90 points with Gordon another 45 back, is 15th. Johnson shrugged off his qualifying troubles.

Angels fly to Bronx with ALCS comeback in mind ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) – Chone Figgins and the Los Angeles Angels know they’re heading straight into more than one kind of storm, and they can’t wait to get wet. Heavy showers in today’s New York forecast are threatening to wash out Game 6 of the AL championship series, yet that’s a minor drizzle compared to the highpressure system the Angels created for both themselves and the Yankees by extending the ALCS to the weekend.

Rejuvenated by a ramshackle 7-6 win in Game 5 that cut the Yankees’ series lead to 3-2, the Angels still face long odds to make the seldom-seen comeback from a 3-1 series deficit against their star-studded opponents. Yet Figgins still senses a team-wide confidence that the Angels can rain on the Yankees’ 27th championship parade. “It doesn’t get any better than this, especially going into that ballpark,� said Figgins, the Angels’ leadoff hitter.

HPU volleyball falls in five SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE

ROCK HILL, S.C. – High Point dropped a five-set battle at Winthrop on Friday, falling 25-21, 2514, 21-25, 22-25, 15-12. HPU took a 2-0 set lead but the Eagles rallied in front of their home crowd

for the win. Freshman Courtney Johnk continued her hot play, leading the Panthers with 12 kills. She also put up six blocks and four digs. The Panthers 13-12 (3-6 BSC) head to Conway, S.C. today for a 2 p.m. match with Coastal Carolina.

Fowler make quick impression SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (AP) – Rickie Fowler is making his presence felt in a hurry as a professional golfer. The 20-year-old former Oklahoma State standout, in his second tournament since turning pro, shared the lead with Englishman Greg Owen halfway through the Frys.com Open on Friday. Both shot 6-under 64s in the second round in ideal conditions on the Raptor Course at Grayhawk Golf Club to reach 11-under 129. Justin Leonard also shot a 64 and was one behind at 10 under. First-round leader Nick O’Hern (68) and Patrick Moore (65) were 9 under in the third stop of the PGA Tour’s Fall Series.

Ryan Newman reacts to winning the pole for Sunday’s Tums 500 Sprint Cup race at Martinsville Speedway on Friday. Gordon and Martin will have the advantage of pit spaces that will make it easier for them to leave. Drivers get to pick their space on pit road in the ordered they qualified. That gives Newman the space closest to the end of pit road, and Gordon the opportunity to choose a space that doesn’t have a space in front of it because it is an access opening in the pit road wall.

“I think the thing that was disappointing was that I thought I had run a run a pretty good lap and it turned out to be slow,� Johnson said. “This will hurt us on pit road. But considering how well I work traffic here, it shouldn’t be a problem.� Gordon didn’t show much sympathy for Johnson. “Any time that we can put a gap between us as

well as the pit selection, that’s a step in the right direction for us,� Gordon said. “We’re going to take anything good that comes our way and try to take advantage of it. But, we’ve seen these guys be strong and run well on Sunday no matter where they start and I think they will be.� Mike Skinner won the pole for this afternoon’s 200-lap NASCAR truck

race. He sped to a lap of 95.733 miles per hour in a Toyota to edge points leader Ron Hornaday. Kevin Harvick, Hornaday’s truck owner, was third with Denny Hamlin fourth and Brian Scott fifth. Burt Myers wound up 17th to get the better of fellow Bowman Gray Stadium regular Tim Brown, who was 26th. gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3519

Labonte battles bug, bags elk B

obby Labonte felt a bit under the weather on Friday while trying to get over what he thought was a flu bug. Labonte said he started feeling sick after he left last Sunday on a hunting trip to New Mexico and felt that he had gotten past the low point. “I guess I have what’s been going around,� Labonte said. “Thursday was the worst day.� Labonte bagged an elk during his hunting session, which he said was “out in the middle of nowhere� a couple of hours southwest of Albuquerque. “That was my fun time,� Labonte said. Labonte is driving the No. 96 that Yates Racing fields for Hall of Fame Racing. Since September, Yates has booted Labonte out of the No. 96 at races where Hall of Fame doesn’t have sponsorship. Labonte is driving the No. 71 of TRG Racing at races where he isn’t in the No. 96. Labonte declined to say much about his situation for next season. “I can’t say if I have something or I don’t,� Labonte said. “Let’s just say I’ve got my feet in the water. If the sharks don’t get me, I’ll be good.� Labonte qualified eighth.

NOT SO OPTIMISTIC While drivers such as Jimmie Johnson, Jeff Gordon and Tony Stewart look forward to Martinsville, Kurt Busch wasn’t enthusiastic to the point that he tried to downplay his one victory here. “Everybody must have called in sick that day,� said Busch, who is fifth in points. Busch said he ran about 1,000 laps on Rockingham Speedway’s copy of Martinsville to try to find an answer for his struggles. In 18 Martinsville starts, he has four top-five finishes. “When you are struggling like that, you hope the light will come on,� Busch said. �I’ve been 18 times and it seems like the more I come here and the more I think

SPORTS Greer Smith â– â– â–

about it, the worse we’ve gotten.� Busch and his Penske Racing teammate got off to a rough start in Friday’s rain-delayed opening practice session. Sam Hornish Jr. and David Stremme wrecked while Busch was 23rd on the speed chart.

STRAIGHT-FORWARD ANSWER Tony Stewart did away with the what ifs and gave a pragmatic response when asked what it would take for him to overtake Jimmie Johnson and win the Cup championship. “We have to score 156 points more than him in the next five races,� Stewart said. “It all comes down to math. But there is no formula on how we do that. You know, we could do it if we finish 20th and he finishes 40th.�

FOND MEMORIES Now that Brian Vickers is living in Florida instead of North Carolina, Martinsville Speedway and Lowe’s (soon to be Charlotte) Motor Speedway aren’t quite as special to him. But he still possesses warm memories of coming to Martinsville as a spectator while growing up in Trinity. “I remember standing on top of a van inside on the turns watching the race with Adam and Austin Petty,� Vickers said. “It’s just good memories of watching races here. Coming here with Terry Labonte. I went to school with Adam and Austin and Terry’s kids Kristin and Justin. I went to a lot of races at Charlotte and Martinsville. “Does that make this track or Charlotte better for me? I don’t think so. Our best track is Michigan and I don’t know if I ever went to Detroit before I started racing in NASCAR.�

much-awaited debut of its new generation Cup engine is set for next weekend at Talladega. The engine will be tried in the cars of Matt Kenseth and David Ragan, two Roush-Fenway Racing drivers who did not qualify for the Chase for the Championship. The new engine does not contain any of the components used in the current engine. “This puts us on a level playing field with the rest of the competition and it’s something we’re excited about working on,� said engine builder Doug Yates, who has been involved with the project since it began three years ago. “Right out of the box the engine is really impressive power-wise. “We feel like it’s going to give us some advantages aerodynamically where, perhaps, we can tape the cars up more and run the engines hotter. The oiling system is designed for a racing engine and, to this day, the current engine has done a great job for many years. But we’ve got to remember when I started 20 years ago the block was already in existence. So a lot of things have changed,� Yates added. Ford driver Greg Biffle said he believes that it will be the second half of next year before the engine will be used full-time by all the Ford teams because of the number of engines that will have to be replaced.

SPEED BUMPS Tony Stewart confirmed Friday that he is a collector of racing helmets and has about 75, some obtained through helmet trading. One of Stewart’s latest acquisitions came in a swap with NHRA champ Tony Schumacher. ... Derrike Cope withdrew his No. 75 to drive the No. 64 owned by Larry Gunsleman so that he could make the race according to the rule book in case qualifying was rained out. ...

Randolph leads Grizzlies past Bobcats, 95-92 CHARLOTTE (AP) – Zach Randolph had 16 points and eight rebounds for Memphis and the Grizzlies held off the Charlotte Bobcats for a 95-92 victory on Friday in the final exhibition game for both teams.

DeMarre Carroll had the tiebreaking layup with 13 seconds left, and Sam Young added 13 points. The Grizzlies (3-5) lost point guard Mike Conley to a sprained right ankle in the first quarter in the game, which

began at 10:30 a.m. and was played in front of more than 16,000, highpitched middle school students. The Bobcats (2-6) got 15 points from Raymond Felton and 14 from Boris Diaw.

Navy, Wake collide ANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP) – Experience will not be on Navy’s side when the Midshipmen host Wake Forest today. Wake Forest’s spread offense is led by Riley Skinner, a four-year starter and the school’s all-time passing leader. Navy’s run-oriented triple-option attack will be directed by Kriss Proctor, a sophomore making his first career start. Proctor is replacing Rickey Dobbs. An MRI this week revealed that the Douglasville, Ga., has a cracked bone in his right knee. Dobbs, who has a team-high 579 rushing yards, leads the nation with 16 rushing touchdowns. Proctor played the final 24 minutes in Navy’s 63-14 win against Rice on Oct. 10. He rushed for 82 yards and three touchdowns on 14 carries. The 6-foot-1, 190pound California native displayed a good grasp of the triple-option. “I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t nervous, but I can’t let that affect the way I play,” Proctor said. “I have confidence in everybody around me and I think they have confidence in me as well.” There is history between Wake Forest (4-3) and Navy (5-2), which is looking forward to hosting an Atlantic Coast Conference on Homecoming in Annapolis. Wake Forest routed Navy 44-24 on its Homecoming in 2007. “This is one of those games you circle on the calendar before the season,” Proctor said. “They beat us in the bowl game last year and we want to get redemption. It’s a huge game and we have a good scheme so we feel like we can get the win.” Dobbs did not practice at all this week and was wearing an immobilizer brace on his right leg. Proctor took all the practice repetitions with the first team and performed well, according to Navy coach Ken Niumatalolo.

Irish, Eagles meet again SOUTH BEND, Ind. (AP) – Notre Dame and Boston College have an odd relationship. Notre Dame has the history, the lore and eight national championships. The Eagles have a 41-39 victory over Notre Dame in 1993 that cost the Fighting Irish another title, still a sore spot among many fans. BC also has beaten the Irish six straight times, evening the all-time series between the two Catholic schools at nine wins each. It is described by some as a rivalry game, although the Irish (4-2) have longer running series with seven teams on this year’s schedule. The ND-BC series ends next year. Notre Dame players say they have nothing but respect for Boston College (5-2). “We might be the only schools, us and BC, that play each other that are so similar schools, so similar traditions, so similar everything,” linebacker Brian Smith said.

Duke looks to ground Maryland THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MARYLAND AT DUKE

---

Who: Maryland (2-5, 1-2 ACC) at Duke (3-3, 1-1) When: 1:30 p.m. Line: Duke by 5. Series record: Maryland leads 30-18. Last meeting: 2004, Maryland 55-21. What’s at stake: Duke’s momentum. The Blue Devils hope a weekend off didn’t cost them any steam they generated after their three-touchdown win at North Carolina State – their first ACC road win in almost three years. The Terrapins, losers of four of five, hope to reverse their slide and generate something positive without injured RB Da’Rel Scott (broken wrist). Key matchup: Duke WRs Conner Vernon and Austin Kelly vs. Maryland’s pass defense. The Blue Devils clearly want to pass, with Vernon and Kelly leading the ACC in catches per game, so Maryland will need to get some pressure on QB Thaddeus Lewis or else the league’s most generous defense (33.7 points allowed per game) could give up some more big numbers. Players to watch: Maryland: WR Torrey Smith leads the NCAA in all-purpose yards, ranks among the league leaders with averages of 4.8 catches and 79 yards, and will look to shake free against a Duke defense that hasn’t allowed a non-ranked team to crack 200 yards passing. Duke: Lewis is coming off the best game of his career, a 40-for-50, 459-yard, five-touchdown performance against N.C. State. What could he do for an encore? Facts & figures: No player on either team has played against the other. ... Duke hasn’t beaten the Terps since 1999, and hasn’t defeated them in Durham since 1994 – its last winning season. ... Maryland defense leads the ACC with 20 sacks.

CLEMSON AT MIAMI

---

Who: Clemson (3-3, 2-2 ACC) at No. 8 Miami (5-1, 2-1) When: 3:30 p.m. (ABC, WXLV, Ch. 45) Line: Miami by 41⁄2. Series record: Miami leads 5-2. Last meeting: 2005, Miami 36-30, 3 OT. What’s at stake: This is a huge game for both teams, since another loss could doom either in the quest of winning the Atlantic Coast Conference. Clemson is coming off its most complete game of the year, a five-touchdown romp past

Wake Forest, while Miami is looking to stay in the thick of the Coastal Division race alongside Virginia, Virginia Tech and Georgia Tech. Key matchup: Clemson WR Jacoby Ford against Miami’s secondary. Ford has 26 catches for 358 yards, and might be the fastest straight-ahead runner among all ACC receivers. Miami’s cornerbacks and safeties won’t be able to gamble against Ford, a friend of Hurricanes safety Randy Phillips. Players to watch: Clemson: RB/KR C.J. Spiller. He’s the guy who makes the Tigers go. Spiller has 466 yards rushing and averages 5.0, and has taken both kickoffs and punts back for touchdowns this season. Half of his eight career receiving touchdowns have gone for at least 63 yards. Miami: TE Jimmy Graham. Emerging as a reliable receiver option for QB Jacory Harris, the basketball player-turned-football player had two critical catches last week against Central Florida. Against Clemson’s strong defensive front, he could figure prominently in the game. Facts & figures: The teams have only played twice since Miami joined the ACC, splitting those games, both of which went to overtime. ... Clemson is one of only two ACC teams that entered the weekend having allowed less than 100 points.

GEORGIA TECH AT VIRGINIA

---

Who: No. 11 Georgia Tech (6-1, 4-1 ACC) at Virginia (3-3, 2-0) When: Noon (Raycom, WXLV, Ch. 45 locally) Line: Georgia Tech by 51⁄2. Series record: Virginia leads 16-14-1. Last meeting: 2008, Virginia 24-17. What’s at stake: Fast-rising Georgia Tech is coming off an impressive victory over Virginia Tech that gave it an advantage over the Hokies in the Coastal Division, and could do the same thing by handing the Cavaliers their first loss in conference play. Virginia has won three in a row after starting 0-3 and gets its first real chance to prove it’s a contender. Key matchup: Georgia Tech QB Josh Nesbitt against the Virginia defense. Nesbitt has become perhaps the best player in the ACC by combining a heavy dose of relentless running with an occasional long pass once the defense forgets he can do that, too. The Cavaliers have allowed one touchdown and 19 points during their winning streak, but haven’t faced an offense like this.

Players to watch: Georgia Tech RB Jonathan Dwyer: The emergence of Nesbitt as a running threat has made Dwyer perhaps the most decorated decoy in the ACC. He’s the reigning ACC offensive player of the year and will surely get a chance to show why once teams key too much on Nesbitt. Virginia WR-QB-S Vic Hall. With Jameel Sewell’s status uncertain at quarterback, Hall could return to the position. He started the opener there before getting hurt, and has since emerged as a reliable target despite being just 5foot-9 as a receiver. Facts & figures: The Yellow Jackets have lost eight straight in Scott Stadium, last winning there in 1990 when Virginia was No. 1.

TENNESSEE AT ALABAMA

---

Who: No. 1 Alabama (70, 4-0 SEC) vs. Tennessee (3-3, 1-2) When: 3:30 p.m. (CBS, WFMY, Ch. 2 locally) Line: Alabama by 161⁄2. Series record: Alabama leads 48-36-7. Last meeting: 2008, Alabama 29-9. What’s at stake: Alabama wants to avoid stumbling after claiming the No. 1 ranking and is seeking its first three-year winning streak over the Volunteers since winning seven in a row from 1986-92. Lane Kiffin and Tennessee could make a big statement with an upset.

MISSISSIPPI STATE AT FLORIDA

---

Who: No. 2 Florida (60, 4-0 SEC) vs. Mississippi State (3-4, 1-2) When: 7:30 p.m. (ESPN) Line: Florida by 23. Series record: Florida leads 32-18-2. Last meeting: 2005, Florida 35-9. Key matchup: Mississippi State LB Jamar Chaney vs. Florida QB Tim Tebow. Ultimately it will be up to Chaney to stop Tebow. He has his team’s best football IQ and with an assist from Mullen, Tebow’s former offensive coordinator, he might have enough to sort out what Tebow’s doing.

Florida State’s Greg Reid (5) hurdles North Carolina’s Kennedy Tinsley (36) during the first half of Thursday night’s game in Chapel Hill. The Seminoles rallied from an 18-point deficit to stun the Tar Heels 30-27.

Seminoles rally, stun Tar Heels BY BRIANA GORMAN ENTERPRISE DURHAM BUREAU

CHAPEL HILL – In the days leading up to Thursday night’s nationally televised matchup with Florida State, the North Carolina players talked about how a win over the Seminoles could be a turning point in their season. The Tar Heels entered the game 0-2 in ACC play and had scored just 10 points in those contests, but they were coming off a bye and boasted the top defense in the conference. Instead, the Tar Heels allowed the Seminoles to rally from an 18-point, third quarter deficit and put up 438 yards of offense to escape Chapel Hill with a 30-27 victory late Thursday night. The loss dropped UNC to 4-3, 0-3. “It’s just a bad feeling,” UNC freshman linebacker Kevin Reddick said. “I guess we got too happy when we were up 24-6. We’ve just got to stay humble.” It was the most points (30) and yards (438) the Tar Heels have given up this season, but most of it didn’t come until the second half.

After holding the Seminoles to two field goals in the first half, Christian Ponder picked apart the Tar Heels’ secondary in the final two quarters. He completed his final 16 passes to finish the game 33-of-40 for 395 yards and tossed all three of FSU’s touchdowns. “Obviously, it’s a little bit of a wakeup call for the defense,” UNC coach Butch Davis said. The play that hurt the Tar Heels the most was a 98-yard touchdown pass from Ponder to Rod Owens (9 catches, 199 yards) that cut UNC’s lead to 2420 in the third quarter. On first-and-11, Ponder found Owens at the 34, who then avoided being tripped up by defensive back Charles Brown at midfield and ran untouched the rest of the way into the end zone. “There’s no doubt where (the game) turned,” FSU coach Bobby Bowden said. “That’s a killer.” UNC tailback Shaun Draughn finished the game with a season-best 126 yards on 23 carries, and three UNC receivers combined for another 109 yards on the ground.

GM board to meet, discuss Opel sale FRANKFURT – A General Motors Co. executive said Friday that the company’s board will meet Nov. 3 and discuss concerns about the sale of European unit Adam Opel GmbH, but gave no details on when the transaction might be completed. In a blog posting Friday, John Smith, GM’s chief negotiator for the sale of Opel and sister brand Vauxhall, says the board would consider a letter sent by the German government regarding concerns raised by the European Union on the sale.

House probe targets big mortgage lenders WASHINGTON (AP) – A House panel is investigating the role of mortgage lenders in the financial crisis and is seeking information from some of the biggest U.S. companies to determine if they used deceptive practices to lure borrowers into the housing boom. Rep. Edolphus Towns, D-N.Y., chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, said Friday the panel also is issuing a subpoena to Countrywide Financial Corp. – now owned by Bank of America Corp. – for records related to its so-called “VIP”

program that provided mortgages to several senators and other officials with preferential terms. Documents provided in response to the subpoena will go to the House ethics committee. Lawrence Di Rita, a spokesman for Charlotte, N.C.-based Bank of America, declined comment Friday afternoon because the bank hadn’t yet received the subpoena. A wave of defaults starting in 2007 on high-risk subprime mortgages for borrowers with blemished credit histories touched off the financial crisis that engulfed Wall Street and

the global economy, and plunged the U.S. into the Great Recession. Consumer advocates and lawmakers have denounced what they said were predatory practices by mortgage lenders to woo unsophisticated borrowers who couldn’t keep up payments after the housing slide began. Towns said the probe is exploring “whether mortgage companies employed deceptive and predatory lending practices or improper tactics to thwart regulation, and the impact of those activities on the current crisis.”

Subprime mortgages, some adjustable-rate loans and so-called option-ARM mortgages, which allow borrowers to choose from multiple payment options, are among the types of loans cited by Towns as possibly predatory. Towns sent letters seeking information on their mortgage programs from 2000-2008 to Bank of America, Citigroup Inc., Wells Fargo, JPMorgan Chase & Co., Residential Capital (owned by GMAC) and U.S. Bank Home Mortgage. He set a Nov. 13 deadline to receive the records.

He declined to elaborate on the site but appeared to rule out a California facility where Toyota plans to halt production in March 2010.

Volcker: Markets need more supervision KANSAS CITY, Mo. – While massive government intervention has contained the nation’s economic crisis, structural reform and increased oversight of financial markets are necessary to avoid a repeat of the “Great Recession,” former Federal Reserve Chairman Paul Volcker said Friday. Volcker, President Barack Obama’s top economic adviser, told business leaders in Kansas City that a strong and independent central bank is critical for monetary policy and financial supervision.

Dollar stronger, but euro holds above $1.50 NEW YORK – The dollar recovered from a fresh 14-month low against the euro on Friday after a pullback in U.S. equity markets spurred some greenback buying.

The dollar rose to 91.87 Japanese yen from 91.29 yen. The British pound tumbled to $1.6347 from $1.6624. after the government said the U.K. economy shrank 0.4 percent in the third quarter.

Real estate agent Deborah Arends (left) talks with agent Cathy Goodrich as Goodrich tours an open house Arends was hosting in Seattle. Home resales rose far more than expected last month to the highest level in more than two years.

Home sales jump 9.4% in September WASHINGTON (AP) – Racing to complete their purchases before a tax credit for first-time owners expires, homebuyers pushed sales up last month by the largest amount in more than 26 years. After jumping 9.4 percent in September, home resales are up nearly 24 percent from the bottom in January, the National Association of Realtors said Friday. But the housing market’s momentum could easily peter out if Congress doesn’t extend the credit of up to $8,000 for first-time buyers beyond its current Nov. 30 deadline. John Kindschi, a 33-year-old aircraft mechanic who lives north of Seattle, didn’t want to miss out.

After a yearlong search, he and his family bought a three-bedroom house for $206,000, completing the purchase last week. “It was getting down to crunch time,” he said. “We had no idea if the credit was going to be extended.” Nationwide sales rose to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 5.57 million last month, from a downwardly revised pace of 5.1 million in August. It was the strongest month two years and beat economists’ forecast of 5.35 million, according to Thomson Reuters. Sales, however, are still down 23 percent from their peak four years ago.

In another positive sign, the inventory of unsold homes on the market fell almost 8 percent to 3.6 million. That’s less than an eightmonth supply at the current sales pace, and the lowest level since March 2007. The competition for low-priced foreclosures has become fierce in places like Las Vegas and Southern California. Aldo Martin, 28 of Covina, Calif., had to put offers on 16 houses before having one accepted this week. “We’d go look at eight houses and if we liked five of them, make offers,” said Martin, a sales supervisor. “Your odds are better. We got aggressive.”

Bernanke: Act now on banking reform WASHINGTON (AP) – Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke prodded Congress Friday to enact legislation overhauling the nation’s financial regulatory system to prevent a repeat of the banking and credit debacles that had thrust the country into crisis. “With the financial turmoil abating, now is the time for policymakers to take action to reduce the probability and severity of any future crises,” Bernanke said in remarks to a Fed conference in Chatham, Mass. For its part, the Fed

has been taking steps to strengthen oversight of banks, sharpen consumer protections and on Thursday unveiled a sweeping proposal to police banks’ pay policies to make sure they don’t encourage top executives and other employees to take reckless gambles. But Congress needs to step in and close regulatory gaps and make other changes that only lawmakers have the power to do, Bernanke said. At the top of his list: Congress must set up a

mechanism – along the lines of what the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. does with troubled banks – to safely wind down big financial firms whose failure could endanger the entire system. And the costs for such a mechanism should be paid through an assessment on the financial industry, not by taxpayers, Bernanke said. Moreover, Congress needs to set up better systems for regulators to monitor risks lurking in the financial system, he said.

The Obama administration has proposed such action as part of its overhaul of financial rules. Its plan would expand the Fed’s powers over big financial institutions but reduce it over consumers. Congress, however, is leery of expanding the Fed’s reach because it and other regulators failed to crack down on problems that led to the crisis. The House is expected to pass legislation by the end of the year, but the Senate is unlikely to consider the bill until early next year.

HIGH POINT – The owner of J. Butler’s earlier this month closed its restaurant and bar in north High Point as part of a Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing. The J. Butler’s that closed was in the Wendover Landing complex off of Eastchester Drive near Wendover Avenue. The company still operates its south High Point location along S. Main Street and three other locations in the Piedmont. The closing of the north High Point J. Butler’s eliminated approximately 30 jobs. The owner of J. Butler’s, Greensboro-based Charbuck Inc., filed for bankruptcy protection to reorganize through the court and remain in business.

WTO investigates EU import charges GENEVA (AP) – The World Trade Organization opened an investigation Friday into whether European Union charges on imports of Chinese steel fasteners comply with international commerce rules. Beijing argues that the EU is illegally taxing steel fasteners needed for products from furniture to cars, but the 27-nation bloc says Chinese manufacturers are breaking trade rules by selling a flood of screws at 30 percent to 50 percent below European prices. The screw dispute between the EU and China is highly sensitive. The two parties held negotiations in Geneva last month that failed to break the deadlock, and heavy lobbying by Chinese screwmakers earlier this year also had little effect.

Number of active oil rigs increases by 8 HOUSTON (AP) – The number of rigs actively exploring for oil and natural gas in the U.S. this week has risen by eight this week to 1,048. Houston-based Baker Hughes Inc. said Friday that 725 rigs were explor-

ing for natural gas and 312 for oil. Eleven were listed as miscellaneous. A year ago this week, the rig count had been 1,964. Of the major oil- and gas-producing states, Texas gained four rigs, Louisiana gained three,

Wyoming gained two, and California gained one. North Dakota lost two rigs, while Alaska, New Mexico and Oklahoma lost one each. The numbers of rigs in Arkansas and Colorado were unchanged.

NEW YORK (AP) – Investors dumped stocks and locked in profits Friday after the glow of a week full of strong earnings reports faded. The retreat came as cautious forecasts from railroads caused unease about the economy and a rising dollar pushed prices of commodities lower, which hurt materials and energy stocks. The Dow Jones industrial average fell 109 points to end the week with a modest loss. Traders appeared eager to collect gains after earnings reports for the July-September quarter came in far stronger than forecast, which had pushed stock indexes up more than 6 percent in the three weeks leading into Friday. “We’ve had such a

The day’s drop came despite some pieces of good news. The National Association of Realtors reported that existing home sales posted their biggest increase in 26 years in September, while shares of Amazon.com rode to a new high after the Internet retailer’s earnings and forecasts came in much stronger than expected. The Dow fell 109.13, or 1.1 percent, to 9,972.18. The S&P 500 index fell 13.31, or 1.2 percent, to 1,079.60. The Nasdaq fell 10.82, or 0.5 percent, to 2,154.47.

Packages of Microsoft’s newly released operating system, Windows 7, are lined up for purchase inside the company’s first retail store grand opening Thursday in Scottsdale, Ariz. September period. But shoppers tended to buy inexpensive laptops and even smaller, cheaper netbooks, which have older and less profitable versions of Windows installed. Many consumers also passed on buying Microsoft’s Office, the package that includes Word, Excel and Outlook, which contributed to a 14 percent total decline in revenue in the quarter. Businesses watched

their spending even more closely. That dragged down Windows results because business-level versions of the operating system are more expensive. And companies that have cut workers are ordering fewer copies of Office and other Microsoft software commonly used at work. Revenue and profit in the group that makes Office sank even as businesses spent more on newer soft-

Microsoft sales fall; cost cuts please investors SEATTLE (AP) – Consumers may be shopping for computers again, but Microsoft Corp. still needs businesses to start doing the same. Microsoft said Friday its revenue kept falling and its net income dropped 18 percent in the last quarter, partly because of the hesitation of businesses, which are more profitable for Microsoft than consumers are. Big cost cuts at Microsoft made a difference, though, helping the company deliver earnings well above analysts’ expectations. Its stock surged $1.29, nearly 5 percent, to $27.88 in afternoon trading. Earlier in the day, the stock reached a 52-week high of $29.35. But while the quarterly results looked good to Wall Street, they also showed how much Microsoft is still wrestling with a PC industry that remains much weaker than a year ago. In the past year the software maker resorted to its first wide-scale layoffs, and in July it said its annual revenue had fallen for the first time since the company went public in 1986. After skidding for six months, computer shipments rose in the July-

ware such as Sharepoint. Chris Liddell, Microsoft’s chief financial officer, said in a conference call that businesses could start replacing aging PCs and servers starting in 2010, “although it could be gradual and occur over a couple of years.” Other companies, especially Intel Corp., have indicated they expect things to improve faster, in the current quarter.

Bank failures top 100 WASHINGTON (AP) – The cascade of bank failures this year surpassed 100 on Friday, the most in nearly two decades. And the trouble in the banking system from bad loans and the recession goes even deeper than the number suggests. Dozens, perhaps hundreds, of other banks remain open even though they are as weak as many that have been shuttered. Regulators are seizing banks slowly and selectively – partly to avoid inciting panic and partly because buyers for bad banks are hard to find. Going slow buys time. An economic recovery could save some banks that would otherwise go under. But if the recovery is slow and smaller banks’ finances get even worse, it could wind up costing even more. The bank failures, 103 in all, are the most in any year since 120 collapsed in 1992, at the end of the savings-and-loan

crisis. Regulators took over Partners Bank and Hillcrest Bank Florida, both of Naples, American United Bank of Lawrenceville, Ga., and Flagship National Bank in Bradenton, Fla., on Friday afternoon. When a bank fails, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. swoops in, usually on a Friday afternoon. It tries to sell off the bank’s assets to buyers and cover its liabilities, primarily customer deposits. It taps the insurance fund to cover the rest. Bank failures have cost the FDIC’s fund that insures deposits an estimated $25 billion this year and are expected to cost $100 billion through 2013. To replenish the fund, the agency wants banks to pay in advance $45 billion in premiums that would have been due over the next three years. The FDIC won’t say how deep a hole its deposit insurance fund is in.

United States swine flu deaths top 1,000

AP

Area residents in Culver City, Calif., wait in line to receive their H1N1 swine flu vaccination Friday.

DENVER (AP) – Colorado authorities say the mother of the 6-year-old boy once feared missing inside a runaway helium balloon admitted the whole saga was a hoax. Court records released Friday say Mayumi Heene told sheriff’s deputies she and her husband Richard knew their son was at their Fort Collins home. She allegedly told investigators the incident was a hoax meant to make them more marketable to the media. Investigators say they will recommend criminal charges against the parents.

side say they’ve compromised as far as they can to address the anti-abortion lawmakers’ concerns by specifying that people receiving government subsidies to buy health insurance couldn’t use that money for abortions.

Meanwhile, swine flu is more widespread now than it’s ever been, and has resulted in more than 1,000 U.S. deaths so far. Flu illnesses are as widespread now as they are at the winter peak of normal flu seasons, said CDC Director Dr. Thomas Frieden.

486929ŠHPE

ATLANTA (AP) – More Americans have been vaccinated against seasonal flu this fall than ever before by this time of year, federal health officials said Friday. Sixty million people have gotten the winter flu vaccine – probably because they’re paying more attention to flu warnings in general, thanks to swine flu. It’s an unprecedented number of seasonal flu shots for October; most usually aren’t given until later in the fall. Part of it is due to supply: There are already 85 million doses of seasonal flu vaccine available, a

Best-selling Lexus still refined, quiet BY ANN M. JOB THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NUTS & BOLTS

The best-selling vehicle at Lexus just got better for 2010, and it did so subtly. The third-generation Lexus RX crossover sport utility vehicle – a crossover because its based on a car platform – is a bit bigger and heavier than its predecessor, quieter, a tad more fuel efficient and has more features. But the things people see first, such as exterior and interior styling, stay true to the popular, previous-generation model. The refined ride is still there, too, and the 2010 RX 350 continues to garner the top, 5-out-of-5 stars rating from the federal government in frontal and side crash tests. Its also worth noting that Lexus, the luxury brand of Toyota, cut the starting manufacturers suggested retail price, including destination charge, for the RX by $900. A front-wheel drive RX 350 starts at $37,675 for 2010, compared with $38,575 for a 2009 model. The starting retail price for a 2010 RX 350 with all-wheel drive is $39,075 compared with $39,975 for a 2009 model. These prices put the RX in the middle of competing models in the luxury SUV segment. For example, the 2010 In-

A front-wheel drive RX 350 starts at $37,675 for 2010, compared with $38,575 for a 2009 model. finiti FX35 has a starting MSRP, including destination charge of $43,015. But its 3.5 inches longer and has a more powerful V-6 than the Lexus RX. Meantime, Infinitis 2010 EX35 starts at $34,665 and is a bit shorter in length but still has more horsepower than the RX. Introduced in 1998, the RX quickly became the best seller at Lexus as American families looked to move out of minivans

and into more trendy vehicles. RX sales last year in the United States totaled 84,181 as the economy declined, but they averaged more than 100,000 in previous years. Based on the Camry platform, the RX offered what it does today – a higher-thana-car seat height above the road and good views out, a smooth ride, quiet, comfortable interior and a luxury badge and amenities. In recent years, Lex-

us also began selling a gasoline-electric hybrid version of RX with noteworthy fuel mileage. For 2010, the hybrid model is renamed the RX 450h, has fuel economy ratings of 32 miles per gallon in city driving and 28 mpg on the highway and carries a starting MSRP, including destination charge, of $42,535. And yes, its true the hybrids city mileage is higher than highway mileage, because stop-and-go

city traffic provides more opportunities for electric power propulsion. All 2010 RXes have an added inch in the wheelbase, which helps make the back seat even more comfortable for adults. Theres 37.1 inches of legroom back there. Seats front and back in the test RX 350 looked and were supportive, and four adults rode without fatigue on a two-hour road trip, making conversa-
