HIGH POINT – A furniture manufacturer has opened a new distribution center in High Point, falling in line with the city’s vision to center High Point as the logistics center of the world. Andes International opened the distribution center at 1914 Alleghany St. It is operated by two employees and plans to hire additional employees in the future. The company, known for its hand finishing processes, had a previous distribution center in High Point, but closed the operation eight years ago and moved the center to California. “We realize now that High Point is where we need to be in order to easily and economically distribute our products across the eastern half of the U.S.,” said Fernando Urquiza, president of the company. The company has shown at the High Point Market for 21 years. Its current showroom is located in the International Home Furnishings Center. “It’s important for High Point to have companies that show during the furniture market to also have a presence here year-round,” said Loren Hill, president of the High Point Economic Development Corporation. “That helps to cement our market place if the rest of the furniture industry is cemented here as well.” The distribution center is a small addition to recent efforts made by city leaders to position the Triad as a logistics center that transports goods to the East Coast, including the opening of the FedEx hub in June and the announcement of the Center for Global Logistics on Guilford Technical Community College’s new campus, located by the Piedmont Triad International Airport. Andes International is a 21-year-old company that makes bedroom, home office, dining room and living room furniture at its factory in Chile.

Annual event to include performance by 2nd Marine Division Band BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

DAVIDSON COUNTY – High school marching bands in Davidson County won’t be competing for a trophy tonight, but the students’ skills will be center stage for the whole county to see. The bands will come together for the annual Davidson County Band Night, which begins at 5:45 p.m. at West Davidson High School. Each fall, Davidson County high school bands from Lexington City Schools, Thomasville City Schools and Davidson County Schools get together for Band Night. The showcase, which includes a special performance from the 2nd Marine Division Band from Camp Lejeune, allows the bands an opportunity to check out each other’s halftime or competition show in a non-competitive event. “Band Night is a way we can achieve our goal of making a col-

laborative effort in this county,” said Cathryn Cabaniss, South Davidson High band director. “It’s a good way for our students and our bands to come together and support each other and encourage each other. Davidson County has a very strong program with music.” One of the highlights of the night will be when the more than 500 band students come together at the beginning event to perform the “Star-Spangled Banner.” South Davidson High will perform its football-themed show called “NFL Showdown,” where the marching band acts as if it’s doing a play. South Davidson High seniors Kimberly Cook and Brandon Morgan are excited about Band Night. “I’m excited because last year we got a standing ovation for the band,” Cook said. “We are a small band, but we are loud and we are proud.” “It’s pretty fun,” Morgan added.

her risk of developing breast cancer goes up. Two out of three incidents of breast cancer occur in women over 55. A family history of breast cancer or a personal history of the disease also increases the risk. Seven to 10 percent of those who develop cancer have inherited a gene from a family member that causes the disease. Also, a woman who has cancer in one breast has a three- to four-fold increased risk of developing cancer in the other breast. Caucasian women also are slightly more likely to develop breast cancer.

Detection methods: Women are encouraged by physicians to perform self breast exams once a month. Women who are over the age of 40 should receive a mammogram every year. Finally, if a woman has a mother or grandmother who has had the disease, a genetic counselor may be able to perform a genetic test that determines if she has a gene that potentially can cause cancer. The same method applies to those who have men in their family that have developed breast cancer or even colon cancer.

CANCER

Positive test allows patients to prepare for future FROM PAGE 1

ics counselor at the cancer center, administers a genetic blood test that can predict if a person who has a history of cancer in their family also could develop cancer. “It has been discovered that there is a gene mutation that exposes women to breast cancer and ovarian cancer,” Baruch said. “If a woman is tested and that gene is found, then she’s going to need closer surveillance, such as a breast MRI.” About 7 to 10 percent of cancers are hereditary, Baruch said. To receive the test, patients have to meet certain criteria such as having a strong family history of cancer, and most insurance companies will pay for the test. A positive test can trigger sharp emotional reactions for some, she said, but it also can allow them to prepare for their future. Baruch has seen women who test positive for the gene go on to have full hysterectomies or double mastectomies in order to prevent cancer from developing. “A lot of women with cancer are really concerned about their daughters,” she said. “I try to tell them that if their daugh-

The board is gathering information on possible campaign violations by former Gov. Mike Easley and the state Democratic Party.

Campbell: Easley used campaign funds for repairs RALEIGH (AP) – Former Gov. Mike Easley’s political ally testified Monday that scores of campaign-related flights went unreported and he turned in false air travel invoices to get reimbursed by Easley’s campaign for repairs he arranged for the governor’s home. McQueen Campbell, the former trustee board chairman at North Carolina State University, told the State Board of Elections that Easley asked him in 2004 to take care of

some water damages and other repairs at the governor’s home in Raleigh, which he Easley rented to someone else while living in the Executive Mansion. Campbell, the first witness to the Board of Elections in its public hearing investigating The Mike Easley Committee and the state Democratic

Party, testified he paid for the repairs, valued at about $11,000. Easley suggested Campbell would be reimbursed with campaign funds and to use some unreported flights to pay them, Campbell testified. “He asked if there were unbilled flights,” Campbell told elections board Chairman Larry Leake, who questioned Campbell as to what he believed Easley wanted him to do. Campbell responded: “For me to bill the

campaign for unbilled flights to uncover those amounts.” Campbell said he filed two invoices through his aircraft company for undesignated flights, totaling a little more than $11,000. The campaign paid his company for them, according to campaign records. He also testified that he flew Easley around on his aircraft for eight years and listed the value of campaignrelated flights over five years at $87,895.

WINSTON-SALEM – Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center and Forsyth Medical Center separately announced medical telecommunications initiatives Monday designed to help stroke victims in rural communities receive care from specialists as quickly as possible. Wake Forest Baptist reports that its Comprehensive Stroke Center launched a “telestroke network” to help patients in rural communities receive stroke therapies. Lexington Hospital in Davidson County is among the first hospitals to participate in the telestroke network, said Donny Lambeth, president and chief operating officer of Wake Forest Baptist. Emergency room physicians in

local community hospitals will have access to five stroke neurologists through a telemedicine robotic system that allows a Wake Forest Baptist stroke expert to evaluate and consult with them. Meanwhile, Forsyth Medical Center unveiled the new “teleneurology medicine program” to provide a higher level of emergency stroke and critical neurology care to rural and small, suburban hospitals in North Carolina and Virginia. The program, coordinated through the Forsyth Stroke & Neurosciences Center, allows medical staff at the rural hospitals to quickly connect with neurologists using videoconferencing technology at a patient’s bedside.

A number of other hospitals will join the network in the future, Forsyth Medical Center reports. “We can now quickly bring worldclass emergency stroke and critical neurology care to hospitals that may lack 24/7 on-call neurologists or that want to strengthen their current primary stroke care services,” said Dr. Cheré Chase, medical director of stroke and neurocritical care at Forsyth Medical Center. “Because of the shortage of experienced, trained neurologists in smaller communities, many stroke victims bypass their local hospitals, causing delay in receiving treatment. Now, they can be treated locally, saving lives and improving the chances for a better recovery,” Forsyth Medical Center reports.

ters test positive for the gene, they shouldn’t feel like it’s their fault.” The test also can be used to find a gene that causes colon cancer in men. Some children in a family may have the gene and some may not, she said, but the point of the test is to allow patients to be aware so early prevention methods can be practiced. “This could really be life saving,” she said about the test. “If you test negative, then your risk of developing cancer goes back to that of the general public.” She also said a person could not be discriminated against as having a pre-existing condition if the test came back positive and cancer developed in the future. If detected, Dr. Bart Frizzell, an M.D. in the cancer center’s radiation department, said new methods can deliver radiation to a tumor more precisely than ever before. One of the latest methods involves the insertion of a balloon instrument into the breast. The balloon is expanded to the size of the area where radiation will be delivered, sparing the healthy breast tissue.

The circle motif above the ticket and concession areas at the new cinema required delicate touches.

University had a big shopping list for new facility BY DAVID NIVENS ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – What does $70 million buy in today’s construction market? In the case of the new University Center at High Point University, it buys thousands of cubic yards of concrete, 784,000 bricks and 965 tons of structural steel, according to general contractor Frank L. Blum Construction Co. of WinstonSalem. At 277,000 square feet, the new center is one of the largest projects in High Point, excluding the furniture showrooms. It includes residence halls for 540 students, a full-floor research commons, and restaurants. The five-story complex covers an entire city block at the center of the campus. HPU President Nido Qubein called the work, and especially the final finishings, “a miracle� Friday during a grand opening. “It took a village to make this come to be,� Qubein said of HPU staff contributions. Overall, the project, which contractors began May 6, 2008, took 630,000 man-hours to finish. The plumbing alone took 64,000 man-hours, the most hours de-

voted to a one-year job in Blum’s history. The interior stylings also required some fine detail work. The film strip decoration over the 200-seat movie theater entrance, the circle motif above ticket and concession areas, and the stanchions on the theater walls took 16 people more than 100 hours to create. Workers handled the pieces meticulously with cotton gloves throughout the manufacturing stages. The complex is the third major campus project to open this year. Campus leaders also have dedicated the Plato Wilson School of Commerce and Nido R. Qubein School of Communication as part of a $300 million campus upgrade and expansion. Overall, the projects have added one million square feet of space in 15 new academic buildings, residence halls, athletic facilities and student activity centers. All the older campus buildings have been renovated. “We have 2,500 students living on campus now, three times what we had just three years ago,� Qubein said. dnivens@hpe.com|888-3626

GOP hurts itself with vicious, hateful attacks I keep reading letters insisting that we must save the Constitution from President Obama; that we must “take back our country!” Gary Whitman’s letter (Oct. 17, “Bush the worst? Just give Obama some time”), in particular, reeks of raw, blind hatred. This isn’t about politics or policy. Some people just can’t accept that Obama is a Democrat, and, oh my gawd, he’s black! We have to take back our country! Where were these voices when President Bush was trampling on the Constitution, lying us into a war he hungered for, illegally spying on us, illegally torturing people, putting into writing, over 1,100 times, that he would not obey our laws if he didn’t want to, and pretty much declaring that the law was whatever he decided it was on a given day? Current polls show that only 20 percent of Americans identify themselves as Republicans. Those who do have nothing to offer but fear mongering and raw, vicious hatred. They cheer when we lose a chance to host the Olympics. They curse when Obama wins the Nobel Prize. They lie about death panels and forced euthanasia. They call Obama Hitler and every other evil name they can think of. I have said before and I say again; the Republican Party is no longer a political party. It has become a hate group.

e look and listen with optimism as, almost every day, someone hints, suggests or declares flat-out that the recession has bottomed and the economy is slowly but surely on its way to whatever the new normal is going to be. And, most of us feel pretty good about that. Then, we get another kick in the shins – nothing as swift and as hard as some 900 folks losing their jobs at Dell five miles up U.S. 311 and High Point Road in WinstonSalem – with economic conditions forcing Valspar to close a paint manufacturing operation at 1647 W. English Road by the end of November. About 30 Valspar employees will lose their jobs – in addition to the 30 workers who lost jobs when J. Butler’s at Wendover Landing closed earlier this month. That’s not a large number compared to some recent layoffs in the Triad, but mighty significant, just the same, to those 60 people. Fortunately, two other Valspar locations – at 2137 Brevard Road and 1717 W. English Road – will remain in operation. This is not a doom-and-gloom editorial. It is, however, a reminder that, while some of us may experience some of the improvement in conditions that economists and other seers are citing, others still are having difficulty coping. Last week’s announcement by Valspar should serve as one more example for giving as much as you can to this year’s United Way of Greater High Point fundraising campaign. The recession has helped increase demands on almost all nonprofits in the area and they need a steady flow of charitable funds, not only to enhance the services they provide for the community, but to maintain a constant level of service to those in need. Who knows? You may be the next person to require services from a United Way-affiliated agency.

Federal bailout is a bad deal for North Carolina

W

hen it comes to the political relationship between Washington and Raleigh, the old saying applies: he who gives can also take away. President Barack Obama’s Big Give to Gov. Beverly Perdue and other North Carolina politicians was a massive federal bailout. Faced with a big state budget deficit, Perdue and lawmakers were forbidden by the state constitution to issue public debt to paper it over. Their only legal options were to reduce spending or raise taxes. The Obama administration gave them a third option – let Washington issue the debt. Over the next two years, some $3 billion of North Carolina’s budget will be financed through this extra-constitutional borrowing. Now it’s time for the Big Take: ObamaCare. No matter what the final version of federal health care legislation looks like, it will rely heavily on a huge expansion of the Medicaid program. If passed, North Carolina’s Medicaid caseload would shoot up 44 percent – faster than the national average of 37 percent. That would wreak havoc on the state budget. Before you assume the flip side of the argument is true, that North Carolina’s uninsured population would drop by 44 percent, you have to remember that most of the people in that targeted income range are currently insured. Given a choice between buying a health plan at market prices or securing it for nothing from the government, rational individuals and employers will opt for the latter. It is hardly in the interests of taxpayers as a whole to shoulder the health care bills of the currently insured. Medicaid has been a major driver of North Carolina’s budget growth for decades. Those

who would have liked to see more infrastructure investment or tax relief since the late 1980s can blame Medicaid. If any version of ObamaCare passes, it will further constrain North Carolina’s fiscal choices. That’s why so many goverOPINION nors, Democratic and Republican, are up in arms about John the current legislation. They’d Hood dearly love another bailout – in ■■■ the form of the federal government picking up a higher share of current expenses for Medicaid and other state health programs. But what they’re likely to get is another big hole in their fiscal ships of state. The problem for North Carolina isn’t just another unfunded Medicaid liability. Because of the way the various health bills structure the subsidies for “private” insurance, states such as North Carolina with relatively low medical costs will end up subsidizing states with higher costs. There are better solutions in health care, solutions based on consumer choice, competition and personal responsibility. They wouldn’t turn the medical industry or state budgets upside down. They wouldn’t raise taxes or force people to buy insurance they don’t want. They wouldn’t give federal bureaucrats more power over the private lives and medical decisions of families. They are, in other words, a bit too sensible to be passed at the moment. Best wait for a better moment. JOHN HOOD is president of the John Locke Foundation and publisher of CarolinaJournal.com.

Karadzic boycotts opening of war crimes trial THE HAGUE, Netherlands – His chair was empty, his headphones lay idle on the desk. In Courtroom One at the Yugoslav war crimes tribunal, outraged survivors of Bosnia’s bloody war gasped in disbelief Monday as judges adjourned the opening day of Radovan Karadzic’s trial after just 15 minutes. The former Bosnian Serb leader boycotted his war crimes trial, claiming he did not have enough time to prepare his defense – even though he was indicted in 1995 and had known he would be tried since being captured in Belgrade over 15 months ago.

Three DEA agents among casualties in Afghanistan KABUL (AP) – Helicopter crashes killed 14 Americans on Monday, including three DEA agents after a firefight with suspected Taliban drug traffickers. It was the deadliest day for the U.S. in Afghanistan in more than four years. In the deadliest crash, a helicopter went down in the west of the country after leaving the scene of a firefight, killing 10 Americans – seven troops and the three DEA agents. Eleven American troops, one U.S. civilian and 14 Afghans were also injured. In a separate incident, two U.S. Marine helicopters – one UH-1 and an AH-1 Cobra – collided in flight before sunrise over the southern province of Helmand, killing four AP American troops and An Afghan riot police man places a tear gas canister into his rifle during a demonstra- wounding two more, Mation in Kabul, Afghanistan on Monday.

Cloning expert convicted in South Korea SEOUL, South Korea – A South Korean stem cell scientist once hailed as a hero for bringing hope to people with incurable diseases and creating the world’s first cloned dog was convicted Monday on criminal charges related to faked research, but avoided jail. The Seoul Central District Court sentenced Hwang Woo-suk to two years in prison for embezzling research funds and illegally buying human eggs. However, it suspended the penalty, allowing him to stay free if he breaks no laws for three years.

Dutch teenager postpones plan to sail the globe AMSTERDAM – A 14-year-old Dutch girl who hopes to become the youngest sailor to circumnavigate the globe solo said Monday she will wait until the school year ends before starting her attempt. Laura Dekker is awaiting a court’s decision on whether she can go ahead with her voyage or whether it would be too risky for a girl her age. The Utrecht court temporarily blocked her departure in August out of concern for her safety.

11 Iranians arrested in Pakistan QUETTA, Pakistan (AP) – Pakistan arrested 11 Iranians Monday near the countries’ border amid tensions over a deadly suicide attack in Iran that Tehran alleges has links to Pakistani intelligence officials. Authorities first said the 11 were members of Iran’s elite Revolutionary Guards, but then reversed course and identified them only as security officers. They were arrested after shooting out the tires of a car carrying smugglers, Pakistan authorities said. The arrests could add to the strain between the two volatile nations triggered by the Oct. 18 attack on the Iranian side of the border. They came a day after the Pakistani president met Iran’s interior minister and vowed to track down the perpetrators of the blast. Pakistan has been accused of supporting militant activities in two other neighboring countries, Afghanistan and India, greatly complicating relations with both of them.

Hospital gets injection of capital

WHO’S NEWS

----

BY PAM HAYNES ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – A capital campaign started two years ago by High Point Regional Health System has finished its first phase with success, hospital officials said. Created in 2007 to meet the primary needs of the non-profit organization, the campaign raised $13 million in its private phase where individual donors were contacted for contributions, according to hospital CEO Jeff Miller. “We had not had a capital campaign since the hospital was built in the 1980s,” Miller said. “Health care is very expensive to provide, so we decided it was time to tell our story to the community and get the help we needed to provide the finest health care.” The private campaign phase ended in August. A public phase in which the hospital called on the community for donations was set to begin afterwards to raise

‘We had not had a capital campaign since the hospital was built in the 1980s.’ Jeff Miller CEO, High Point Regional Health System an additional $7 million, bringing the total campaign goal to $20 million. In light of economic conditions, Miller said that phase had been post-poned until next year. “In the next six to 12 months, we’ll try to make the community more aware of our need,” he said. Frosty Culp, chairman of the campaign and a member of the board of trustees, said the collected funds were going to meet the hospital’s greatest needs, which included new information technology infrastructure. “We want to stay up to date with technology and offer the same services here in High Point at a private hospital that other, larger hospitals are offering,” he said. Several community figures made donations to the campaign including David Hayworth, who donated funds toward cancer research, and Jack and Marsha Slane donated funds to renovate the fourth floor of the critical care unit. Ron and Linda Jones also donated funds to the hospital’s nursing education and recognition program, which sends about 20 nurses each year to the Mayo Clinic in Arizona for continuing education. Culp said that support from the community was an integral part to the success of the hospital. “The hospital doesn’t turn anyone away,” he said. “If we can keep it strong and stay competitive, we can continue to have a great thing. But it’s going to take the whole community to get involved.” phaynes@hpe.com | 888-3617

Our wedding is two months away, and I couldn’t be more excited about starting my life with “Jeff.� Only one thing bothers me. When the two of us eat alone together, Jeff throws his manners out the window. He kind of eats like a pig. He opens his mouth as wide as it will go and takes as big a bite as he can. Then, as he’s chewing (even with his mouth closed) he makes noises. I can’t get past the noises! I know Jeff knows better because he doesn’t eat like this when we’re out with his parents or having dinner with friends. The first time he did it I thought he was joking. The second time, I thought he was just really hungry. Now I realize this is the way he eats. We have known each other two years, so we have had plenty of time to get acquainted. How do I tell him his eating behavior gets under my skin? I don’t want any children we have to learn these habits.

Service dog killed by hit-and-run driver MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

Rita Potts wanted Buddy, her service dog, to burn off some energy one afternoon last week so she let him off his leash. It wasn’t unusual for her to let the Labrador Retriever mix run along the fence at the back of Fayetteville Gardens, a housing complex off Purdue

Drive. Buddy, still a young dog, would return when Potts called for him. But Thursday, Buddy ignored her calls. He darted up Marlborough Road and onto a busy Raeford Road, in front of Tallywood Shopping Center. The driver of a black pickup hit Buddy, killing the dog instantly.

movement which the body needs in order to rest and replenish its strength. Typically, arousals are between 10 and 60 a night. A person with severe OSA may have 100 arousals. These arousals during the night won’t generally awaken the sleeper so he/she is unaware this is happening. Symptoms include loud snoring, morning headaches, dry mouth upon awakening, chest retraction during sleep in young children and hypertension. Obesity, irritability, change in personality, depression, difficulty concentrating and reduced libido can also be noted in a person with sleep apnea. During the period of apnea, there is often a significant drop in oxygen saturation. In severe sleep apnea oxygen saturation may drop from a normal range of 90-100 percent into the 50-60 percentile range. If you or a significant other notices these symptoms, notify your doctor.

TRIAD – Eighty-three churches in the Triad will join Hospice of the Piedmont Sunday in observing Hospice Sabbath. Hospice Sabbath is a day set aside to remember loved ones, especially those who died during the year. Hospice Sabbath marks the beginning of National Hospice and Palliative Care Month during November. Hospice of the Piedmont, which has served the four area counties since 1981, cared for more than 800 patients in the past year. Each church celebrates Hospice Sabbath during regular worship time. Some congregations place white roses that represent remembrance on the altar. Others recite names of the departed, read related scripture or sing special hymns. This year, Hospice of the Piedmont supplied participating churches with memorial bookmarks that include “29 Ways to Care for Someone Who is Grieving.”

leep apnea commonly affects more than 12 million people in the United States. People with sleep apnea stop breathing repeatedly during sleep, often for a minute or longer and as many as hundreds of times during a single night. Sleep apnea is caused by either complete airway obstruction or partial obstruction, called “obstructive hypopnea,” which is defined as “slow, shallow breathing.” The cause of obstructive sleep apnea isn’t clear. The site of obstruction in most patients is the soft palate, extending to the region at the base of the tongue. There are no rigid structures such as a cartilage or bone in this area to hold the airway open. During the day, muscles in the region keep the passages wide open. When the person with OSA falls asleep, these muscles relax to a point that the airway collapses and becomes obstructed. When the breathing stops the sleeper arouses enough to open the airway only for a few seconds but then falls back into the same pattern. These arousals disrupt continuous sleep and prevent the person from reaching the deep stages of sleep, such as rapid eye

Male breast enlargement is common in older ages

D

ear Dr. Donohue: I am a healthy, 67year-old man who has developed embarrassingly large breasts this past year. Why? They aren’t painful. I will not go swimming or do anything that requires taking off my shirt. I’m about 20 pounds overweight. – C.C.

BLONDIE

That’s called gynecomastia (GUY-nuh-coeMASS-tee-uh), and it frequently happens during three age periods. In infancy, some male children have visible breasts due to the estrogen that was transferred to them from their mother during fetal development. At puberty, almost all boys have a degree of breast enlargement, and some have quite conspicuous enlargement. It comes from an imbalance of male and female hormone production at this stage in life. Usually the imbalance and enlargement are transient. In older men, for a similar reason (hormone imbalance), breasts begin to grow. Male hormone production wanes without a concomitant drop in female hormone production. (It’s a revelation to men and women that men produce female hormones and women, male hormones.) Male breast growth requires distinguishing between fat and breast tissue. Sometimes fat deposition is mistaken for gynecomastia. Fat tissue is soft and squishy. Breast tissue is firmer. If you can’t tell the differ-

ence, your doctor can help you out. Weight loss is the solution for fat deposition, HEALTH and getting rid of your Dr. Paul extra 20 Donohue pounds will ■■■ help. M e d i cines are sometimes the cause of breast enlargement. The list is long and includes some common medicines. An overactive thyroid gland can stimulate breast growth. Liver and kidney diseases can be responsible for it. If your testosterone production is on the low side, replacement of that hormone is helpful. Raloxifene blocks the effects of estrogen and is another treatment. Surgical removal of the tissue is a definite cure and is not surgery that has a long recovery period. Dear Dr. Donohue: Do moles become cancer? I have a number of them, and I wonder if I face the prospects of cancer. How can you tell a mole from a cancer? – R.S. Melanoma, the most deadly form of skin cancer, is the skin cancer that has to be ruled out when evaluating any dark patch of skin. Moles are not cancer, and they rarely become cancer. All the same, pigmented areas of skin deserve respect and should prompt a doctor’s examination if

a person is unsure about their nature. Melanomas are larger than a pencil eraser, have irregular borders, often have strands of reds, blues and tans infiltrating the dark patch and are asymmetric. Asymmetry means if you fold the patch in half (in your imagination), the two halves don’t match. Any black skin spot that enlarges, changes shape or bleeds should bring you to your doctor. Dear Dr. Donohue: Now I can add licorice to the foods that are dangerous to eat. I hear it causes high blood pressure. Well, I’ve been eating it all my life, and my blood pressure is just fine. Is this just another piece of scare news that people love to spread? – H.J. Licorice made from the root of the licorice plant contains a substance called glycyrrhiza (glisuh-RISE-uh) which, when eaten in large amounts, can raise blood pressure and lower blood potassium. Most licorice produced locally does not contain glycyrrhiza and has no effect on blood pressure or potassium. Red licorice doesn’t contain this material. 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.

Miles for Smiles Special-needs kids find enjoyment in friendly 5K race BY JIMMY TOMLIN ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

T

he grin on 2-year-old David Lang’s face spoke volumes. It wasn’t that David had won the Cannonball 5K road race, because he hadn’t. Nor was it even that he had completed the sixth annual run, although getting that finisher’s medal placed around his neck was obviously pretty cool. But no, David’s smile stemmed from the fact that he was simply participating in the race – he was doing something normal, which is an opportunity specialneeds children such as David don’t often get. “We thought this would be a really great opportunity for David,” says his mom, Angie Lang of High Point. “We try to give him as many normal childhood experiences as we can.” That’s also the idea behind Miles for Smiles, the brainchild of Greensboro runner Janelle Robinson, who came up with the idea of matching runners with special-needs children, so the

’Our goal is to give David as normal a childhood as we can, regardless of his disability.’ Angie Lang David‘s mother kids could experience what it feels like to participate in a road race. The runners did the actual running – pushing the children in jogging strollers – and the kids did the smiling. The Cannonball 5K, held Oct. 17 in Greensboro, was the first Miles for Smiles event. David was pushed by his occupational therapist, Deanna Mayberry, and another runner, who alternated with Mayberry. “They said he had a great time,” Lang says. “They said he really enjoyed it, just ‘ooh-ing’ and ‘aah-ing’ and making all kinds of happy noises. And when

David Lang, who was born extremely prematurely, sits in his jogging stroller. they got to the finish line, he was smiling and I just got a big ol’ hug from him. It was obvious he was really happy to have been in the race – I think it was very exciting for him.” Lang points out that each Miles for Smiles child had his or her name on the side of the stroller, so as they were pushed along the route of the 5K race, spectators cheered for them by name – an added thrill for the kids. Robinson came up with the idea behind Miles for Smiles after seeing a video about Team Hoyt, a father-and-son duo who compete together in triathlons and other endurance competitions. Dick Hoyt competes with his grown son, Rick – a spastic quadriplegic with cerebral palsy

– pushing him in a special wheelchair when he runs, carrying him in a special seat when they bike and pulling him in a special boat when they swim. “I had heard of Team Hoyt, but I had never heard about anything like that around here,” Lang says, “so this was a great opportunity for David.” David, a student at Gateway Education Center, was born extremely prematurely – at 24 weeks gestation, instead of the usual 40 weeks – which resulted in developmental delays. “He had bleeding in his brain, which caused pretty significant brain damage,” his mother explains. “He has hydrocephalus (also known as ‘water on the brain’) and a shunt as a result of

that. He also has cerebral palsy, which is also associated with the bleeding, and he’s developmentally delayed in all areas.” He’s full of life, though – a true blessing for Lang and her husband, Andrew. “He is a wonderful child,” Lang says. “He’s extremely happy and just loves life. He fought hard to be here, so I think he’s decided he’s gonna get everything out of life that he can.” Miles for Smiles, then, was a perfect fit for David and his parents. “Our goal is to give David as normal a childhood as we can,” Lang says, “regardless of his disability.”

Did you know nearly one in five adults in America suffers from arthritis, or joint inflammation? And half of those with arthritis do not believe anything can be done to help them. There are more than 100 different forms of arthritis, but the most common is osteoarthritis, affecting approximately 21 million Americans. While there is no cure for arthritis, several tips and techniques are available for daily living. On Nov. 5, at 6:30 p.m., Randolph Hospital will offer a free, interactive seminar, “A Hand Up On Arthritis.” Therapists from Randolph Hospital’s Rehabilitation Services Department will share practical tips for daily living with arthritis. Rather than just coping with the aches and pains, you can learn valuable information to improve your quality of life. This seminar is one of Randolph Hospital’s community education events offered each month to promote health and wellness. For more information or to register, call Randolph Hospital at (336) 633-7788, or register online at www.randolph hospital.org.

Put your best foot forward and take action. A partnership can be developed that will help you professionally and personally. ★★★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): The importance of communication will be magnified.

Interact with groups that interest you. ★★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Don’t sit back if there is something you want. Negotiate your position and be firm. Money, love and contracts can all be put in place if you are upfront. Use our insight as a guideline and you will intuitively know what and who to ask for help. ★★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Not everything you need to know will be out in the open. You will have to ask questions and deal with each issue that arises. An incident regarding work will have to be handled firmly if you want to be taken seriously. ★★★

“I fought the rules, and the rules won,” a club player told me ruefully. “I should’ve beaten this contract but didn’t.” My friend was East, defending against four spades. West led her singleton diamond, East took her ace and South played the ten. “The rule told me to return partner’s lead,” East said, “but I was conflicted: A heart shift through dummy looked attractive. Finally, I obeyed the rule and returned a diamond. I figured if West had led a singleton, I’d better give her a ruff.”

DISCARD West ruffed and led a club, but South won in dummy and started the trumps. When East took her ace and led a heart, South grabbed the ace, drew trumps and ran the diamonds to discard his queen of hearts. Making four. “You’ll get it right next time,” I told East. “Since you have the ace of trumps, you can wait to give West a ruff. You must lead a heart at Trick Two.

‘Gun Club’ fires up Deacons ACC HOOPS NOTES:

C

ollege basketball coaches always find themselves under the gun to have their programs winning games and moving forward. At Wake Forest, a big part of that process this season means no more firing blanks from long range. The Demon Deacons sat 11th in 3-point field-goal percentage last winter, their 32-percent accuracy better only than Virginia’s 31.6 effort. Still, coach Dino Gaudio admitted being a little uneasy with how his staff went about trying to change those numbers. “We have this thing – and in hindsight I gave it a bad name – it’s called the ‘Gun Club,’ ” Gaudio began with a smile. The “gun” in this case is a practice tool that fires basketballs, not bullets, at players in a pre-programmed arc along the perimeter. Gaudio said every time one of the Deacs took 500 shots in a practice session, they passed along the news to an assistant coach, who in turn came up with velcro head shots of each player to stick on the “Gun Club” scoreboard. That chart, measuring some 20 feet, was divided into 500-shot increments out to 20,000. And, Gaudio added with a laugh, “They had to have either a teammate or a manager or a coach with them – to make sure their addition was good. We had several guys shoot between 10,000 and 15,000 shot attempts before school started.” The winner? Freshman C.J. Harris, the former Mount Tabor High School star.

Williams said his last recruiting class at UNC included Hubert Davis’ group, one year prior to Cherry entering the picture and Williams leaving for Kansas.

Denny Hamlin poses with the winner’s trophy after victory in the 501lap race Sunday at Martinsville Speedway. With his hopes of winning the Cup championship virtually gone, Hamlin wants to end the season on a high note by winning as many races as possible.

Hamlin settles for consolation prize BY GREER SMITH ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER

FOLLOW THE LEADER

After being picked to finish last in the ACC preseason poll, N.C. State will be looking for help this season from anywhere and everywhere. Can a sophomore with limited experience make it happen? In the case of C.J. Williams, coach Sidney Lowe hopes so. “I think C.J. knows the right things to say and the right things to do,” Lowe said of the 6-foot-6, 218-pound wing who played forward and shooting guard last winter in a year that included several starts – and several games never leaving the bench. “Will he emerge as a leader? I’m not sure,” explained Lowe, KEEPING HER DISTANCE point guard for N.C. State’s Alyssa Gaudio, who performed on state championship 1983 NCAA championship team. “It didn’t matter who basketball and cross country was here (during Lowe’s teams at Bishop McGuinness playing years): Hawkeye Catholic High School prior to (Whitney) was a senior, Clyde June’s graduation, decided to (Austin) was a senior, guys attend Wake Forest. But you won’t find her hang- were juniors. It didn’t matter – I was going to tell them what ing around the basketball to do. That’s the way I was offices. – and they turned around and “I think right now where listened, they would go with it. she is, she’s trying to get a “It’s something within that little separation from Dad,” person they have to have,” Gaudio said. “At first she Lowe continued. “The other didn’t want to come to Wake part of being a leader is you Forest, and I didn’t force have to do it every time. I can’t her. Of her own volition she tell you not to take that bad decided to come and I think shot if I’m taking a bad shot. she’s embracing it. “She’s a bright kid – smarter I can’t tell you to stop turning it over if I’m turning it over. than her dad – so she’s doing If you’re going to talk the talk, well,” Gaudio added with a you have to walk the walk.” laugh.

MARTINSVILLE, Va. – Realistic hopes of winning a championship dashed, Denny Hamlin now targets consolation prizes. The types of prizes Hamlin wants are the shiny ones drivers receive in victory lane after getting to the checkered flag first. Hamlin collected one Sunday at Martinsville Speedway, taking care of two items on his checklist. He scored a personal-best third victory of the season while easing the pain of an engine failure and a wreck that took him out of the prior two races after he charged to the front. Even after making good on those counts, Hamlin found the victory was not quite as sweet as it would have been if he were still in championship contention. “It was a feel-good win for us after two bad weeks, to be able to rebound and finally get the win after we felt we should have done it the past two weeks,” Hamlin said. “And getting over that onewin, two-win barrier was also satisfying. “But, you’ve got to be happy. A win is a win no matter where it is in the season. So we set our goals before this race and we are already on track.” Part of the satisfaction came from winning by outrunning points leader Jimmie Johnson. Hamlin led the last 139 laps, jumping ahead of Johnson on two double-file restarts in the last 15 laps. “It stinks to not have an opportunity to win the championship this year,” Hamlin said. “Hopefully we are setting up as one of the favorites in 2010. It’s kind of a fun position, to be racing around guys still racing for the championship and you have nothing to

lose and all you are doing is going for a race win. That part of it is fun because you can push harder and take more risks.” The part that is not fun is being 352 points (almost the maximum that can be won in two races) behind Johnson with four races to go. Hamlin did climb two spots in the standings to ninth. He is two points behind eighth-place Greg Biffle and 40 behind Ryan Newman. Hamlin would like to get back in the top five in points. Heading to Sunday’s race at Talladega Superspeedway, he is 152 points behind fifth-ranking Juan Pablo Montoya. Hamlin has more wins this season than every one other than Johnson, second-ranking Mark Martin, fourth-place Tony Stewart and Kyle Busch, who didn’t qualify for the Chase. “I told my crew chief before this race for us to get back to the top five in points, because it’s a shame for us to be in 11th as competitive as we are, especially since some of the guys in front of us haven’t won a race or haven’t been competitive,” Hamlin said. Competitive is what Hamlin fully believes he will be in the remaining races, which vary from the restrictor-plate at Talladega, to a flat mile track at Phoenix, to different 1.5-mile tracks at Texas and Homestead. Hamlin had won previously at Martinsville, where he had experience in late models before making it to Cup. He showed by leading last week at the 1.5-mile Lowe’s Motor Speedway that he can also be competitive on intermediate tracks. “It’s just great to have that feeling, be able to go to races and know that you can win no matter what type of track you are on.” gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3519

T

he Philadelphia Phillies seek their second straight World Series championship when the Fall Classic starts on Wednesday night. The Phils have never won back-to-back World Series titles. That got me to wondering. How many times have there been repeat World Series champions? The answer surprised me. The Yankees captured five straight titles from 1949-53, won four straight

from ‘36-39 and took three consecutive crowns from ‘98-2000. The Oakland Athletics won three straight World Series from 1972-74. As for the back-to-back champions, the Cubs won it all in 1907 and ‘08; the Philadelphia A’s ruled in ‘10 and ‘11; the Red Sox prevailed in ‘15 and ‘16; the New York Giants won in ‘21 and ‘22; the Yankees took two in ‘27 and ‘28; and the Philadelphia A’s doubled again in ‘29 and ‘30.

More recently, it was the Yankees in ‘61 and ‘62; the Reds in ‘75 and ‘76; the Yankees in ‘77 and ‘78; and the Toronto Blue Jays in ‘92 and ‘93. That’s 14 cases of teams winning two or more World Series titles in a row. I had no idea the World Series produced so many repeat champions. We’ll soon know if the Phillies will join that list.

YOUR COMMUNITY. YOUR NEWSPAPER.

Mark McGwire is back in baseball, reunited with Tony La Russa as the St. Louis Cardinals’ hitting coach. La Russa agreed to return for a 15th year as manager Monday with a one-year contract, the first time he hasn’t had a multiyear deal with the team. All of his coaches will return except for Hal McRae, who will be replaced by the former star. “Mark is passionate about the game, passionate about the Cardinals,” chairman Bill DeWitt Jr. said. “Tony thinks he’ll be a great coach, and I think he’s got a lot to offer.” McGwire was not at the news conference at Busch Stadium, but La Russa and general manager John Mozeliak said there will be no effort to shield McGwire from questions about steroids. The team anticipated a telephone news conference with McGwire. “By no means is he trying to hide, and by no means are we trying to hide him,” Mozeliak said. McGwire hit a then-record 70 home runs in 1998 and retired with 583 homers and a .263 career average in 2001. He famously refused to answer questions about steroids use during a March 2005 congressional hearing, saying he wasn’t there to talk about the past. He has received just under 25 percent support from voters in his three appearances on the Hall of Fame ballot.

Panthers unsure about Delhomme as starting QB CHARLOTTE (AP) — For the first time in seven years, Jake Delhomme is in jeopardy of losing his starting job. After another abysmal performance Sunday left Carolina 2-4 and Delhomme with an NFL-high 13 interceptions, Panthers coach John Fox acknowledged he’s contemplating benching Delhomme in favor of either Matt Moore or A.J. Feeley. “I still believe Jake is our best quarterback. I have no reason to believe otherwise, truth be told,” Fox said Monday. “But collectively we’ll do whatever it takes for us to improve. What that is I can’t honestly tell you at this second.” A day earlier, Delhomme threw three interceptions, two which were badly overthrown and directly led to 14 Buffalo points in the Bills’ 20-9 win. The 34-year-old Delhomme, who received a lucrative contract extension in the offseason, can’t seem to snap out of the worst stretch of his career. It began when Delhomme threw five interceptions and lost a fumble against Arizona in the playoffs. Counting two lost fumbles this season, Delhomme has committed 15 turnovers and thrown only four touchdowns. His passer rating of 56.5 ranks 32nd in the league and Carolina’s minus-14 turnover margin is by far the worst in the NFL. Sunday’s loss ended Carolina’s two-

UNC women lead ACC balloting GREENSBORO (AP) — North Carolina’s best player is a major question mark. The Tar Heels still have enough talent to win the Atlantic Coast Conference. For the second straight year, coach Sylvia Hatchell’s team is the preseason pick to win the ACC’s women’s basketball title, despite the uncertain status of Jessica Breland, who’s been out since she was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s lymphoma. Hatchell said Monday during the ACC’s Operation Basketball media day that “if I had to make a decision right this minute,” Breland probably would be redshirted this season. The senior forward has undergone five months of chemotherapy to treat the disease that the coach believes was responsible for her chronic breathing problems for the past few years. The panel of 45 media members and school representatives who voted on the preseason awards were convinced Breland would be back at full strength this season: She was one of five players picked to the all-league team. Joining her were Florida State forward Jacinta Monroe, Boston College center Carolyn Swords and guards Jasmine Thomas of Duke and Virginia guard Monica Wright, the preseason player of the year whom coach Debbie Ryan put on par with former Cavalier great Dawn Staley. North Carolina guard Tierra RuffinPratt is the top rookie. Her Tar Heels received 30 first-place votes and were followed by rival Duke, which was voted first on 10 ballots. Florida State — which shared last year’s regular-season title with Maryland — was picked third with two first-place votes. Virginia was fourth, followed by the defending ACC tournament champion Terrapins, Boston College, Georgia Tech, Miami, North Carolina State, Wake Forest, Clemson and Virginia Tech.

three times already today — I think it’s more frustration,” Delhomme said Monday. Delhomme stood in front of his locker with Arizona game tape under his arm vowing to prepare to start as always. He said he met earlier in the day with the

Fox, but declined to reveal details. “I think my confidence is high, but it’s easy to say it,” Delhomme said. “You’ve got to get it done. ... I’m not trying to play the victim. I’m the one pulling the trigger.” While Fox said he sees no difference in Delhomme’s arm strength or delivery, he hinted Delhomme’s psyche will play into his decision who starts in Sunday’s playoff rematch with the Cardinals. “We’ll do whatever it takes for us to start developing some confidence in that phase of the game,” Fox said. Trouble is, the Panthers have few good options behind Delhomme, who has been Carolina’s starter since Week 2 in 2003, when the relative unknown led the Panthers to a surprising trip to the Super Bowl. Moore started three games as an undrafted rookie in 2007 when Delhomme was recovering from reconstructive elbow surgery. Moore’s only appearance since was when he completed 6 of 11 passes for 63 yards and an interception after Delhomme was benched late in the season opener against Philadelphia. “I feel ready if needed,” Moore said. “But I think we’re 100 percent behind Jake.” The Panthers signed the journeyman Feeley on Sept. 15 after Josh McCown was placed on injured reserve with knee and ankle injuries.

Philadelphia Phillies fan Marquise Wood, 10, cheers during a rally for the team at City Hall in Philadelphia on Monday.

Phillies, Yankees boast star lineups NEW YORK (AP) — They boast All-Stars all over the diamond, highpriced players decorated with coveted awards. They come loaded with October experience and shiny rings, expecting to win another World Series. Impressive team ... these Philadelphia Phillies. Hardly a bunch of slouches on the other side, either. Derek Jeter, Mariano Rivera, Andy Pettitte and the New York Yankees are a model of postseason success, eager to include Alex Rodriguez in a championship celebration. A pair of franchises separated by a 90-minute ride

on the New Jersey Turnpike, with no real rivalry to speak of despite their century-long histories. That could change starting Wednesday night. Ryan Howard, Jimmy Rollins and the defending champ Phils are set to dig in against CC Sabathia in Game 1 at Yankee Stadium. “I think the fact that we’re playing the Yankees and it’s close to Philadelphia and how the fans and the media react to it and how both cities look forward to it, that puts more icing on the cake,” Phillies manager Charlie Manuel said Monday. “It does something for the game.”

ESPN fires woman in Phillips affair BRISTOL, Conn. (AP) — The ESPN production assistant whose affair with baseball analyst Steve Phillips led to his termination has also been fired from the sports network, a spokesman said Monday. Mike Soltys, a representative of ESPN, said Monday that 22-year-old Brooke Hundley had

been fired, but he did not say when or why. Phillips, a former general manager of the New York Mets, was fired Sunday after the network said his ability to represent ESPN effectively had been “significantly and irreparably damaged” by revelations about his affair with Hundley.

Andretti defends caution call CHARLOTTE (AP) — John Andretti defended NASCAR’s decision not to throw a caution when he couldn’t move his disabled car from the finish line at Martinsville Speedway on Sunday. Andretti crashed on the frontstretch during the next to lap of the race, and NASCAR apparently believed he could move his car out of the way in time for the field to race its way across the finish line. Because he couldn’t, the caution wasn’t called until the cars were coming out of the final turn

and quickly closing in on Andretti. “It wasn’t a bad call,” Andretti said in a statement on Monday. “To me, I wasn’t in a great position, but I wasn’t in an overly dangerous position. NASCAR focuses on the race itself, and they want to see the winner come across the finish line. “It’s probably the call I would’ve made. I would’ve gotten out of the way if I could’ve. But I had a couple of issues. The car was too damaged.”

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) — East Carolina has traded its familiar routine for national TV exposure. The Pirates visit Memphis tonight, then won’t play again until Nov. 5, when they host No. 5 Virginia Tech. Ten days later, it’s a Sunday night game at Tulsa on Nov. 15. East Carolina coach Skip Holtz says he loves

being the only game on TV, exposure a team can’t get playing Saturday. “I love the exposure,” East Carolina coach Skip Holtz said of being the only game on TV. “That’s an exposure that you can’t get on Saturday.” Memphis (2-5, 1-3 Conference USA) is coming off of a 36-16 loss to Southern Miss in which the Tigers had 11 penalties for

105 yards, allowed a punt return for a touchdown and a 78-yard kickoff return. The Pirates (5-3, 3-1) have won three straight in this series against Memphis. “I think East Carolina probably does the best job in the league of making you beat them,” Memphis coach Tommy West said.

Yates hears criticism of play CHAPEL HILL (AP) — T.J. Yates has long known every throw will be scrutinized, every read questioned and every mistake criticized simply because he’s the quarterback. But having something thrown at him as he walked off the field in his own stadium? That’s something new. Consider it the latest chapter in a frustrating season for Yates

and North Carolina, a team that’s gone from nationally ranked to flirting with a bowl-less season. The junior said Monday someone threw a coin or pin that hit him in the helmet after the Tar Heels blew an 18point second-half lead and lost to Florida State 30-27 in the first Thursday night home game in program history. That capped a night in which

Yates threw for just 64 yards and tossed a key interception. Yates understands fans are frustrated with the season-long struggles of the Tar Heels’ offense. Heck, he’s right there with them. But he won’t dwell on the criticism as he heads into this week’s trip to No. 14 Virginia Tech for a second straight nationally televised Thursday night game.

Time grows short for Wolfpack RALEIGH (AP) — The open date on the schedule has been good to North Carolina State the past two seasons. Coming out of their bye week, Wolfpack players and coaches are looking for another jolt. “We’re ready for almost

a new beginning, a second chance at the season,” center Ted Larsen said. N.C. State (3-4, 0-3 Atlantic Coast Conference) has lost three straight and is winless in October, finishing with blowout losses to Duke and Boston College

in which it allowed 101 points and 982 yards. But with this weekend’s trip to Florida State, the Wolfpack has another chance to put together the kind of lateseason surge that defined coach Tom O’Brien’s first two seasons in Raleigh.

Ragsdale fifth at 4A golf ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORTS

GOLF 4A STATE CHAMPIONSHIP FOXFIRE VILLAGE – Defending individual champion Allison Emrey has her Charlotte Ardrey Kell team atop the leaderboard after one day of play at the N.C. High School Athletic Association 4A girls championship at Foxfire Golf and Country Club’s West course. Emrey, a junior, shot a 2-under-par 71 for a oneshot lead over Clayton’s Lizzie Bundy and North Meck’s Katie Kirk on the par-73, 5,630-yard layout. Ardrey Kell’s three counting scores netted a 226 on the first day of the two-day event. Defending champ Raleigh Athens Drive sits second at 234, with no other teams appearing to be in striking distance. Reagan and Grimsley are tied at third at 252, while Ragsdale and Raleigh Wakefield carded 254s. Thirteen teams in all advanced from last week’s regional play.

Ragsdale was powered by sophomore Lily Crane, who currently sits tied for 10th place with three others following a 38-40–78. Other counting scores for the Tigers were Laura Chang (41-43–84) and Savanna Mackie (47-45–92).

Salisbury shot a 250 to top West Henderson by eight shots and Hampstead Topsail by 11. Scuipider shot a 3-overpar 74 to lead Pikeville Charles B. Aycock freshman Tara Simmons by

two shots on the par-71, 5,618-yard layout.

Freshman’s goal, senior’s saves lift HPU ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

HIGH POINT – Freshman Janay Whittaker scored her second goal of the year Monday night to lead the High Point University women’s soccer team to a 1-0 win over Radford in the final home game of the season. The victory gave the Panthers a 3-3-1 mark in the Big South and clinched a berth in the conference tournament. Whittaker’s game-win-

ner came in the 83rd minute when she blocked an attempted clearance inside the 18 and ripped a hard shot into the left side of the goal. The ball bounced off the post and into the goal. The attempted clear by Radford came after junior Sara Rager had a header off a corner saved and junior Jillie Johnston’s shot on the rebound was blocked. HPU senior goalkeeper Marisa Abbott made

three saves in the opening 45 to keep Radford off the scoreboard and she finished with her fifth shutout of the season, tying Abbott’s singleseason record she set in 2007 and tied last fall. The HPU defense has recorded four shutouts against Big South opponents and allowed just five goals in seven conference matches this season. The Panthers return to action at Presbyterian on Friday.

Celtics, Cavaliers open season INDEPENDENCE, Ohio (AP) — Shaquille O’Neal spent his final day of free time where any super hero would hang out. He went to Disney World. Now Superman is preparing for his Cleveland Cavaliers debut against the Boston Celtics tonight in one of the league’s most heated rivalries. The two teams that open the season in the East could also be the final two teams remaining in the conference finals — though defending East-

ern Conference champion Orlando may differ with that prediction. “You can’t win the championship winning the first game. You still have to play all 82 and go through the postseason,” O’Neal said. “But you always want to try and get off to a great start.” With a day off on Sunday, O’Neal took his family to Disney for one final day of fun. From now until the playoffs, his quest is to win the Cavaliers’ first champion-

ship in franchise history. Cleveland traded for O’Neal for games like this against Kevin Garnett and the Celtics, who eliminated the Cavs in the playoffs two years ago on their way to their first NBA championship in 12 seasons. That heated series launched a feud that boiled all last season. It bubbled up in last week’s preseason game in Columbus, when the Cavs’ Mo Williams was spun to the ground near the end of the first half.

ESPN suspends Griese for Montoya remark THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ESPN broadcaster Bob Griese has been suspended one week for a remark he made about NASCAR driver Juan Pablo Montoya. ESPN spokesman Josh Krulewitz says Griese will not be working a game this week.

Krulewitz says ESPN has spoken to Griese and “he understands the comment was inappropriate.” During ESPN’s broadcast of the MinnesotaOhio State game Saturday, a graphic was shown listing the top five drivers in NASCAR’s points race. Fellow analyst Chris Spielman asked where

was Montoya, who is Colombian. Griese replied he was “out having a taco.” He has twice apologized on air for the remark. Montoya is declining to comment on Griese’s suspension. He brushed off the remark Sunday, and said he’d never heard of Griese.

NEW YORK (AP) – A strengthening dollar and worries about an overheated market pounded stocks. Stock indexes started higher Monday but turned sharply lower at midmorning as a rebound in the value of the dollar stalled a rally in commodities. Early gains in prices for oil and other commodities had pushed up shares of energy and materials companies. The sharp swings in currency and commodities markets sent the Dow Jones industrial average whipsawing in a 200-point range, surrendering an early advance for a loss of 104 points. Stocks have fallen in four of the last five days. “This is the tug-of-war that’s been going on for a while now,” said Samuel Dedio, portfolio manager of the Artio U.S. Smallcap Fund in New York, referring to sparring between the dollar and stocks. Oil gave up early gains to settle down $1.82 at

$78.68 per barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. That hurt the shares of major oil companies such as ConocoPhillips. Changes in the dollar’s value against other currencies frequently send commodities prices up or down. Since most commodities are priced in dollars they become more attractive to investors outside the U.S. when the dollar is weak, and more expensive when the dollar is strong. The Dow fell 104.22, or 1.1 percent, to 9,867.96. The index fell 109 Friday. The slide is the first consecutive triple-digit loss for the Dow since June 15-16. The broader Standard & Poor’s 500 index fell 12.65, or 1.2 percent, to 1,066.95. The index, which is the basis for many mutual funds, is down 2.8 percent from its recent peak a week ago. The Nasdaq fell 12.62, or 0.6 percent, to 2,141.85. About three stocks fell for every one that rose.

Lorillard 3rd quarter profit dips partly on higher expenses RICHMOND, Va. (AP) – Lorillard Inc., the nation’s third-largest cigarette maker, saw less of a decline in cigarettes sold in the third quarter than its competitors as its value brands posted big gains. Lorillard, whose other brands include Kent, True and Maverick, faced declining volumes of about 6.1 percent during the period, compared with its estimate of a total industry decline of 12.6 percent. The company saw a 9.8 percent decline in volumes for its Newport brand, but a 51.9 percent increase in its value-priced Maverick brand. Some smokers have traded down to cheaper cigarette brands during the recession in an effort to cut spending. The Greensboro-based maker of Newport menthol cigarettes was the last of the country’s top tobacco companies to report its third-quarter results.

Results from the three tobacco makers, who account for about 90 percent of the U.S. cigarette market, show steep volume declines as

Some smokers have traded down to cheaper cigarette brands during the recession in an effort to cut spending. a new 62-cents-a-pack federal tax, smoking bans, health concerns and social stigma make the cigarette business tougher. CEO Martin Orlowsky said in a conference call with investors that while the company outperformed

the industry, he acknowledged lower retail inventories industrywide to keep stock in line with reduced demand. “It’s at a low level, certainly the lowest it’s been in a while,” Orlowsky said. Lorillard, the oldest continuously operating U.S. tobacco company, said Monday that its third-quarter profit dipped 1 percent, pinched by higher expenses and consumers tightening their spending. It earned $235 million for the three months ended Sept. 30, down from $237 million a year ago and missed analyst estimates. The company, which was spun off from Loews Corp. in June 2008, said revenue climbed 26 percent to $1.42 billion on higher prices, offset by selling fewer cigarettes and spending more on promotions.

Dodd wants immediate rate freeze on credit cards WASHINGTON (AP) – Senate Banking Committee Chairman Chris Dodd, who is fighting for his political survival, proposed Monday an immediate interest rate freeze on existing balances for the estimated 700 million credit cards in circulation. The legislation is unlikely to go anywhere in the Senate, where businessminded Democrats would join Republicans in casting the measure as draconian and unnecessary. Banks say that capping interest rates would cut their profits and force them to lend less money, which would reduce spending and worsen the economy. Dodd’s proposal seemed aimed at reconnecting the Connecticut Demo-

crat with voters, many of whom have questioned his close ties to big banks after he was tied to a sweetheart loan scandal. The Senate Ethics Committee cleared him of violating any rules, although his poll numbers remain shaky. Spokeswoman Kirstin Brost said the bill was not a political maneuver and only reinforced Dodd’s views that more consumer protections were needed. “At a time when families are struggling to make ends meet, jackedup rates can quickly create crushing debt,” Dodd said in a statement. “People need to be responsible with their money, but they shouldn’t be taken to the cleaners by outrageous rates.”

FDIC: Public’s view of bank failures wrong CHICAGO (AP) – With the number of bank closings above 100 this year for the first time since 1992, the head of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. says she’s frustrated at perceptions that U.S. taxpayers are on the hook for the costs of those failures. “We have not borrowed a penny from Treasury,” FDIC Chairman Sheila Bair reiterated Monday. “I hope we don’t have to. If we do, we’ll pay it back promptly.” In remarks to the American Bankers Association, Bair sought to dispel any false impression that the government is paying for the 106 banks that have been shut down so far this year. Taxpayers are not liable for the roughly $25 billion that this year’s bank failures have cost the FDIC’s federal deposit insurance fund. Bank failures are expected to cost the fund $100 billion through 2013. The FDIC has asked banks to pay in advance $45 billion in regular premiums that would have been due over the next three years, hoping to avoid or at least delay

UK policy maker says high inflation unlikely LONDON – There is no evidence that the policy of pumping money into the economy known as quantitative easing will trigger unacceptably high inflation, a member of the Bank of England’s monetary policy committee said Monday.

As the recent spate of bank failures drained the fund, the FDIC also imposed a special one-time fee on the banks earlier this year.

The FDIC also still has tens of billions in loss reserves apart from the insurance fund. The 106 bank failures so far this year, including seven announced Friday, are the most since

1992, when 181 failed at the end of the savings and loan crisis. Close to another 400 banks have been deemed at risk of failure. Comptroller of the Currency John Dugan, who also spoke to the ABA, warned that the pace of bank failures may have slowed but isn’t yet close to ending.
