TRIAD – The little ghosts, goblins and witches trick-or-treating for Halloween deserve some special attention this year. Halloween falls on Sunday this year, and High Point, Thomasville, Archdale and Trinity officials have said they will not ask residents to observe Halloween on Saturday, though they certainly have that option. The last time Halloween fell on a Sunday night, in 2004, the High Point
‘The major dangers are not from witches or spirits, but rather from falls and pedestrian/car crashes.’ David Grice Davidson County sheriff City Council adopted a resolution to observe Halloween on Saturday, reasoning that Oct. 31 was a school night and a time of church observances for many. “As far as we know, Sunday is the night,” said Capt. Steve Myers of the High Point Police Department. Police and sheriffs urge parents and especially motorists to be watchful and safe. “Children should wear reflective clothing and carry flashlights,” Myers said. “And motorists should drive slowly.” Police urge motorists to watch for children darting out from between
parked cars and for children walking on roadways, medians and curbs. “Halloween is a fun time,” said Davidson County Sheriff David Grice, “The major dangers are not from witches or spirits, but rather from falls and pedestrian/car crashes.” An adult or an older responsible youth should supervise the Halloween outing for children under age 12, police say. Older kids should walk in groups. Children should travel only in familiar areas and along an established route to stop at houses or apartment buildings that are well-lit. They should stay away from strangers’ homes. All children need to know their home telephone number and how to call 911 in case of an emergency. For small children, pin a slip of paper with the child’s name, address and phone number inside a pocket. Tell your youngsters not to eat any treats until they return home. Meanwhile, for the older “trick-ortreaters,” the statewide Halloween Booze It & Lose It campaign begins Friday and ends Sunday. Local and state authorities will conduct stepped-up patrols and checkpoints statewide cracking down on impaired drivers. “There isn’t a Halloween costume clever enough to hide an impaired driver who has made the poor decision to get behind the wheel,” said David Weinstein, Governors Highway Safety Program director. “Even if you think you are OK to drive, if you’ve been drinking hand over your keys. It’s just not worth the risk.” Drivers who see a drunk driver should contact police, Weinstein said. dnivens@hpe.com | 888-3626

Sheetz store going up in Wallburg BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
WALLBURG – A Sheetz convenience store is under construction at the intersection of Gumtree Road and N.C. 109, bringing the issue of the Wallburg’s ban of alcohol sales to the surface. Stedman-based Spell Construction started on the 16-week project last month, with plans to have the store ready for Sheetz to open in February, said Don Martin, the construction company’s superintendent for the project. Officials with Sheetz could not be reached for comment. Wallburg Mayor Allen Todd said Sheetz officials had not contacted him on their plans to open the store in Wallburg. Todd said he was contacted by a Realtor about a year ago

Land is cleared for the new Sheetz store at the corner of N.C. 109 and Gumtree Road in Wallburg. who was trying to entice Sheetz to locate to Wallburg. The mayor said the real estate agent asked Todd if there was any possibility for the store to sell alcohol, but the Realtor never approached the Wallburg Town Council about the issue. Wallburg – just like Davidson County – is dry,
prohibiting the sale of alcohol. Todd said he told the Realtor the only way alcohol could be sold would be by referendum supported by Wallburg residents. Todd said he told the real estate agent that he would be surprised if that would happen in the near future in Wallburg. “When the agent con-
tacted me, I said, ‘We would welcome Sheetz here, and certainly welcome lower gas prices, and they would have to rely on gas and food sales to make it there,’” Todd said. “I felt like they probably would be able to make it there without having the other (alcohol) involved.” Todd said the Town Council would have to hear from a large group of its residents before they considered the alcohol issue. The town does have the ability to put a referendum on a ballot for the sale of beer and alcohol, said Wallburg Town Attorney Jay Wagner. “It can happen two ways,” Wagner said. “The Town Council can vote to put it on the ballot, or if the citizens got enough signatures on the petition, (residents) could pe-
tition to have it placed on the ballot.” While the issue of the Sheetz opening in the town ignites the alcohol issue, Todd said the new convenience store will be a plus for Wallburg. Construction of the store comes on the heels of Timco’s announcement that it will bring 500 jobs to Wallburg, moving into the former Tyco Electronics building on Gumtree Road. The new Sheetz convenience store will be located directly across the street from Timco, which plans to begin operations during the first quarter of 2011. “It’s revenue,” Todd said. “Sheetz pays a lot of sales tax right there, and it’ll come right back to the community as a positive form.” dignasiak@hpe.com | 888-3657

Jack Hambrick stands inside his destroyed home in Vale after powerful thunderstorms moved through the area. At least 11 people were hurt and eight homes damaged when a possible tornado touched down in Lincoln County in western North Carolina Tuesday evening, emergency officials said.
Storm leaves one dead, massive destruction VALE (AP) – People from the Dakotas to North Carolina were dealing with the aftermath of a massive storm that roared across the country, unleashing dozens of tornadoes, rain, flooding and eventually snow to some places, leaving behind plenty of destruction and one death in Michigan. Heavy snow and strong winds battered the Dakotas for a second day Wednesday, with visibility reduced by blowing snow and roadways covered by ice, snow and slush. “It’s not good to be out here for anybody,” Highway Patrol Capt. Eric Pederson said. “It’s just tough going anywhere.”
Conditions were improving early Thursday and fall-like weather was expected to return later this week, as the front that brought the wild ride makes its way off the East Coast. In central Michigan, where storms knocked out power to thousands, Kent County Sheriff officials said a contracted utility worker clearing fallen trees was killed Wednesday night in Boyne Township after he touched a live wire. In North Carolina, Yolanda Corona prayed she wouldn’t die when winds from the massive storm blew through her neighborhood.
She was watching television with 10 relatives when the windows blew out of the living room. The chimney caved in. A tree plunged through the roof. The family huddled in a back bedroom, whispering prayers, crying and holding each other. Somehow, they survived. “We thought we were going to die. We were just so scared. We didn’t have time to do anything. We all just listened and prayed for our lives,” Jessica Vargas, Corona’s 18-year-old granddaughter, recalled Wednesday, looking at the family’s possessions, which had been strewn around their muddy yard the night before.

Charter Schools chain. Several board members strongly supported the program and several others had doubts. Several board members have visited the similar KIPP School in Charlotte. “There is a need for this model,” said board member Carlvena Foster of High Point. “I like that we are looking at High Point for this.” “This is a wonderful model, but how does it benefit other teachers and students,” said board member Jeff Belton. “The costs will be considerable. Why do we have to build one of these?” Board members Paul Daniels, Nancy Routh
and Darlene Garrett voted against the plan after citing money and other obstacles. Superintendent Mo Green has said students and parents would want to be a part of the program because it has produced great academic success where it has been installed. The school could become a teaching model for other schools, Green said. It has not been decided yet whether the district would use a lottery to fill the school. “But we have to be careful with this,” said board vice chairman AmosQuick. “Some of these schools have closed. I’m not a big fan of experi-

menting.” The school would cost $3.1 million by the fourth year, starting at $9,700 per student in the first year and dropping to $7,758 in the fourth. The Action Greensboro Foundation has offered assistance to get the school started. There could also be state and federal grant funds available for the project to cover the $1.6 million the district would need in the first year. “We know these schools work,” said John Ellison of the foundation. “There is broad support in the community and business leaders see a way to raise test scores and attract
business to the community.” “This appears to be an effective model and we can afford it,” said board member Garth Hebert of High Point. “But I do not want to cut out the rest of our students.” A 2008 school bond project, Allen Jay is scheduled for renovations for use as a small middle school. The project currently has a $12.1 million budget. “These are challenging times,” said Sharon Ozment, district financial officer. “But it is worth looking for the funds for this.” dnivens@hpe.com|888-3626

‘Moss Man’ calls arrest Halloween mix-up in court Tuesday facing burglary and criminal mischief charges from his Oct. 14 arrest outside the Rice Northwest Museum of Rocks and Minerals. Police say the 36-yearold Portland man cut a hole in the wall. Officers found a bike and a back-
pack, but they didn’t find the suspect until a police dog bit what appeared to be the ground. It was Liascos in the camo outfit. He says it was a Halloween costume his kids had given him. He says he was just waiting for the police to pass by when he was bitten.
RALEIGH (AP) – A North Carolina State Bar panel approved language Thursday designed to encourage the more than 20,000 lawyers they regulate to keep personal biases out of their practices, including in their dealings with gays and transgender people. The Bar’s Ethics Committee voted 19-9 in favor of changes to the preamble of their rules of professional conduct to add language stating lawyers shouldn’t discriminate while working. The provision contains “sexual orientation” and “gender identity” in a list of eight characteristics that shouldn’t lead to biased conduct. The change, which could receive final Bar approval by Friday, is a standard attorneys should aim for and cannot be used to punish a lawyer, according to proponents of the change that initially came to the Bar a year ago. Attorneys and outside groups have written scores of letters to the Bar on the topic. “We don’t want to see people discriminated against based on whatever

your classification is,” law professor and committee member Phyliss CraigTaylor said during a nearly hour-long debate. “This is not about condoning behavior.” Opponents argue the change discourages them from refusing to represent gays and lesbians on moral or religious grounds — such as when a same-sex couple wants to adopt a child — or by forcing them to accept clients of which they would have a hard time representing vigorously. “This is perceived by many members of the Bar as a limitation on (their) inherent right to determine who their clients are going to be, and what cases they’re going to take,” said board member Robert Detwiler of Jacksonville. “That’s what we say to young lawyers: ‘Don’t take cases you don’t believe in.’ ” The language also doesn’t eliminate Bar rules that allow lawyers to refuse to represent a client that takes action the lawyer considers “repugnant, imprudent or contrary to the advice and judgment of the lawyer.”

Missing 10-year-old NC girl’s father out of jail NEWTON (AP) – The father of a missing North Carolina girl is free after posting bond on charges unrelated to his daughter’s disappearance. Adam Baker, 33, arranged for a bondsman to post his $7,000 bail, Catawba County Sheriff Chief Deputy Coy Reid said Thursday. Baker was arrested Monday on charges of assault with a deadly weapon, failure to return rental property, writing worthless checks and other charges. Hours before Baker’s release Wednesday evening, police announced that searchers found a prosthetic leg they think could be the one worn by 10-year-old cancer survivor Zahra Baker. She was fitted with an artificial leg after losing hers to bone cancer. Authorities say the one they

Adam and Elisa Baker told police they had last seen Zahra in her bed at their home in Hickory, about 50 miles northwest of Charlotte. But police don’t believe them. Investigators said Zahra may have been alive when the family moved to a new home in North Carolina in mid-September, but they’ve had trouble finding anyone else who has seen her in recent months. Elisa Baker, 42, has been charged with obstruction of justice. Police said she acknowledged writing a bogus ransom note found at the scene of a fire in the family’s back yard on the day her stepdaughter was reported missing.

Clyde Deal said. The prosthetic leg was discovered Tuesday afternoon near some brush in Caldwell County near the home. Deal said the family lived at several locations in the county and that he wasn’t sure how long ago they occupied that house. Authorities on Tuesday took Elisa Baker to a home where she once lived and Deal said she was cooperating after being jailed since the weekend her stepdaughter was reported missing. Deal also said a mattress found by

Iraqi opposition asks about abuse claims
RAMALLAH, West Bank (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; U.S. efforts to restart peace talks between Israel and the Palestinians have not produced results so far, the Egyptian foreign minister said Thursday, less than two weeks before a key Arab decision on whether to halt the negotiations.
BAGHDAD â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The Iraqi prime ministerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s political opponents demanded Thursday that parliament hold a special session to investigate claims that prisoners have been tortured by his government.

France: Bin Laden tape probably real PARIS (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; A newly released audio tape of al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden threatening France appears to be authentic, the French Foreign Ministry said Thursday. The voice on the au-

KARACHI, Pakistan (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Gunmen on a motorcycle opened fire on a Japanese consular vehicle in Pakistanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s largest city Thursday, wounding two local employees and underscoring the fragile security in the country. Islamist militants have targeted foreigners in Pakistan before, but police said the attack may have been an attempted robbery.

US: Foes endanger Lebanonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s stability UNITED NATIONS â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The United States on Thursday accused the militant group Hezbollah and its allies Iran and Syria of attempting to endanger Lebanonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s stability and undermine its independence. U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice warned that the Mideast is at â&#x20AC;&#x153;an extremely critical juncture.â&#x20AC;?
The peace talks, launched last month at the White House, have stalled over Israeli settlement construction in the West Bank, and Israeli and Palestinian leaders traded barbed remarks Thursday about their future. Israeli Prime Minister
and Muslim extremists is common. Elsewhere in the country, an American missile strike killed seven suspected militants close to the Afghan border, the latest in a surge of such attacks over the last two months. The shooting in Karachi happened soon after the three Pakistanis in the car had stopped by a bank to get cash, police official Javed Akbar Riaz said. The two wounded men were in stable condition, he said.

KRISTINE KAISER: The delegitimizing of our government makes it prey. TOMORROW
Opinion Page Editor: Vince Wheeler vwheeler@hpe.com (336) 888-3517

Mayor, City Council races stimulate letter writers Moore is concerned about government’s direction We are proud to support Britt W. Moore in his campaign for election to High Point City Council at large. We have known Moore for most of our lives and attended church with him for many years. Moore is a very hardworking, honest and conscientious individual. He is a person of integrity whose values and concern for his community are reflected in everything he does. He is a devoted husband, father, son and friend, and he is well-loved for his great compassion and concern for others. He is known for always being there when someone is in need and for being willing to give his time and care to others, beyond what most expect. Moore is deeply concerned about the future of our city and our country, and he exemplifies the values that we need most right now in our elected officials. This November’s elections may well be the most crucial in our lifetime. With the growing concern about the direction our government is taking and about the burdens that will be imposed on our children and future generations, there are opportunities to elect committed, caring people who are there to do the right things for their constituents. Britt W. Moore is one of these people. Please support him in his candidacy. At no time in the history of our city and our country has it been more important. JOHN & PAULA LABBAN High Point
Henley will be an asset on High Point City Council How refreshing and encouraging when an understated, but effective, business executive like A.B. Henley is willing and enthusiastic to serve on the High Point City Council. Probably not since The Great Depression has our area been more economically challenged. Unfortunately, the recovery may be slower than some pundits prophesy, which makes it crucial that each step be taken cautiously and courageously. Henley will bring to the Council his business achievements at an age Grace and he are growing their family, a time when he naturally has a keen interest in the well-being of the total community.

The Enterprise reminds you that early voting ends Saturday at most early voting sites. However, early voting will end today at the Guilford Board of Elections Office in High Point, which will be closed on Saturday. The county’s regular voting polls will open Tuesday at 6:30 a.m.
True, residing in the county, I cannot vote, but my business office is located in downtown High Point. My last “letter to the editor” was written over 50 years ago encouraging the election of Jess Washburn for mayor, and he made a remarkable difference. My feeling is that on the City Council level, Henley is an asset High Point should claim. TOM HAGGAI Jamestown
Shull, Pugh, Wagner will listen to your concerns I would like to say I have voted always for the person I thought would do the best job and the right thing. I have been involved with listening to the High Point Fire Department firemen that had wanted to talk about issues. I have bent some councilmen’s ears on this and that. Why I am writing this is to bring light to all of us as voters. The time is now to put people that will do what is right for us and not what is best for them. I can say that if you want a person who will listen to you, then you need to vote Geoff Shull and Mike Pugh and Jay Wagner. I feel that they will do what is right for us, the taxpayers, and those who are employed there to keep us all safe. Everyone will not be happy, I understand that. But I feel that these people will do the best for the taxpayers and they will talk with you. ROBERT NICHOLS JR. High Point
Wagner aims to improve city’s quality of life It’s time. It’s time for High Pointers to expect a proactive city government and not a reactionary one. We have lost too many jobs and we have lost too many businesses. We need to have a city government that works to bring business to High Point and to improve the lives of our citizens.
It’s time to be proud, once again, to live in High Point. The center city and other areas need revitalization not procrastination. The families of High Point need a place to meet and spend time that is safe and interesting. I have recently visited the Virginia cities of Lynchburg, Abingdon, Winchester and Roanoke. All have a family friendly vibe and nice places to walk and meet. They are interesting and bring people together. High Point is competing with similar communities that have a good quality of life that brings businesses to town. Cities cannot chase business away as High Point does when they come to town with restrictions and an impression of a mere bedroom community; another market has just passed when the majority of visitors leave High Point at night to socialize. High Point needs to “mean business,” not be mean to business. It’s time for us to claim our place in regional organizations not to take what is left over. High Point’s character should not be diluted by the larger county municipality and the rest of the county. It’s time for a change to new ideas and leadership, not for the sake of change, but for the sake of our city and our future It’s time to vote for Jay Wagner for mayor of High Point: www. VoteJayWagner.com. J. KEITH MILLER High Point
Smothers has knowledge, experience to lead city The first time I met Becky Smothers 23 years ago, I helped assemble campaign letters for her bid for a seat on City Council. I had come to High Point from Chapel Hill with my new boyfriend to meet his parents. Fortunately, that initial meeting didn’t deter me from marrying Smothers’ son. High Point has now been my home for over 15 years. I am an in-law; so, I don’t have to say anything nice. But, I feel compelled to let my fellow High
Point citizens know what happens behind the scenes to be our city’s mayor. Concerns about economic development and core city revitalization are hot topics for this election and are of great importance. But do you know the issue Smothers receives a majority of calls? Garbage collection. It’s not a headline-grabbing topic but most us would be unhappy if our garbage wasn’t removed as scheduled. She doesn’t think it’s beneath her to check a citizen’s toter who has reported the sanitation workers weren’t emptying the toter when placed properly on the street. She is also the same person who can discuss water and sewer lines with city officials and later in the same day attend a meeting with furniture market executives. If an issue requires a call to Raleigh, she knows whom to call and they will call back because they know her. Smothers is an effective leader for High Point because she served several years as a Council member before being elected mayor. She didn’t have to learn the ropes of elected office while serving as mayor. After voters gave her a break in the past, community leaders encouraged her to run again because her experience and knowledge were greatly missed. Please join me in voting for Becky Smothers on Nov. 2. DEBBIE SMOTHERS High Point
Stick with an experienced mayor – Smothers I think the comparison of an experienced captain steering his ship relates to the job of mayor of High Point. It takes years of learning and leadership for a person to finally become a full-fledged ship captain. This person has learned how to inspire confidence because they have experienced all kinds of difficulties, overcome them, and learned how to correct and proceed. No one wants a captain at the helm of their ship to be inexperienced and learning while all the important decisions to be made depend on knowledge gained through past experience and working their way through the ranks. In my opinion, Becky Smothers has the experience and knowledge we need in High Point to be our captain. We’ve tried “Hope and Change” maybe we should stick with experience. She has my vote.

Davis for Senate 28; Brandon for House 60
I
n one of the most unusual N.C. Senate races we’ve ever seen, voters in District 28 will choose between three contenders – a Democrat, a Republican and an unaffiliated candidate. Interestingly, each of the three have realistic chances to win. And what’s more, either one of the three candidates is capable of representing this district well. In this race, Gladys A. Robinson of Pleasant Garden runs as a Democrat, Trudy Wade of Greensboro runs as a Republican and Bruce Davis of High Point, a Democratic member of the Guilford County Board of Commissioners, runs as unaffiliated. You may know the story behind Davis’ candidacy. He had intended to run in the Democratic primary if incumbent Katie Dorsett had not filed for re-election. Just barely before the filing deadline’s end, Dorsett withdrew from the race and Robinson filed, just beating the deadline. Rightfully incensed by the ap-
pearance of political skulduggery, Davis launched a successful petition drive that now has him on the ballot as an unaffiliated candidate. During his two terms on commissioners, including a stint as board chairman, Davis has compiled a fine record of service to his High Point constituents and Guilford County overall. He led efforts to bring a drug cost-savings plan to all Guilford residents at no cost to the taxpayers. He’s been involved in jobs and economic development efforts that have helped Guilford during these tough economic times, and he also understands the need for county government cost-cutting during these times. Davis would carry such experience and leadership skills to the Senate. Robinson, a member of the UNC Board of Governors, is well aware of needs for budget cost-cutting because of her board of governors post, so she understands the state’s need to cut costs. But she
also understands the need for the state to support efforts to bring jobs and support education. Wade, a member of Greensboro City Council, is a fiscal conservative who supports jobs efforts, but also advocates more decreases in state spending and more honesty and integrity in state government. In this heavily Democratic district, she normally would have little chance to win. But with the possibility of Robinson and Davis splitting Democrats’ votes, she has the best chance for winning that a Republican may ever have. Davis is our choice in the Senate 28 race, not the least of reasons being his High Point address. Make no mistake, Davis is still a Democrat and will side on some issues with the party when we’d rather he not (and we will tell him so). But Davis can be the strong voice from High Point that has not echoed across the floor of the state Senate in nearly 20 years. In the House 60 race, two High Pointers face off, courtesy of Mar-

cus Brandon’s surprising Democratic primary upset of long-time incumbent Earl Jones. Brandon has worked in several national election campaigns, and after returning to his home county, he decided to run his own. He faces Republican Lonnie Wilson, a retired landscaper. In this race in another Democratic majority district, Wilson raises valid points that North Carolina’s tax burden (gas tax and corporate tax, for examples) is too great and that excessive regulations hurt business development and jobs creation. But Brandon has demonstrated energy and enthusiasm and a command for the issues that makes him the better choice. Additionally, Brandon pledges to be a strong supporter of state funding that is important in making the High Point Market successful. In contrast, Wilson questions that funding and says the market should stand on its on with no state assistance.

President Obama didn’t cause the mess we’re in What has happened to America? I promised that I wouldn’t write another letter, but I am fed up with this racism, hatemongering and character assassination that is being spewed forth by wacko wannabe politicians, radio and TV hosts and so-called leaders in Congress. What happened to old-fashion politics when the issues were how to improve life in America? All you hear these days is where somebody was born or their religion. What is this doing to improve life in America? Nothing! I say again, President Obama didn’t cause this mess we are in. It took eight years of Bush and his cronies to send this country almost over the cliff. Obama can’t wave a magic wand and everything is going to change. He has done more in two years than Bush did in eight. It takes time for change. We have stooped to the lowest of low with these wackos running for office. They say what they want, and you know it’s nothing but lies. They want to rewrite the Constitution. It won’t happen in your lifetime, if ever. They are lining their pockets with your money telling these lies. They get rich, you get poorer. Wake up people! Save your money for grandma, your children and grandchildren. You will need it if these wackos get in Congress. They don’t tell you how they are going to create jobs, but they want to take away what you have now. They want to take away Medicare and Medicaid. So what happens when the family needs health care? Think people! I don’t know about others but I will be glad when this lying is over. It is not a political campaign, but a smear campaign.

Marshall will make an excellent U.S. senator for our state Having listened to the debates between Elaine Marshall and Richard Burr, I have made my decision to vote for Marshall. She has the common sense we are all seeking in our representatives, and I find in her integrity and character, coupled with compassion and understanding for the people she will be representing. She has been an excellent secretary of state and she will make an excellent senator. DONNA CROZIER Greensboro
Price is qualified, committed to serving on school board It is with great pleasure that I write to endorse my lifetime friend, Ed Price, as he runs for a position on the Guilford County Board of Education. I do not know and cannot imagine anyone in Guilford County more qualified, and committed to serving on this board. Price and I graduated from High Point Central High School in 1967, and I have had the pleasure of serving with him on various boards and committees throughout the years. But Price’s real passion is the children of High Point and Guilford County. He and I coached Little League Baseball together for many years, and he has coached many, many other youth teams involving children from High Point over the years. There is no one who has a bigger heart for the children of High Point than Price. Those who know Price, know that he is a very humble person who does not want credit for any of his many accomplishments, which are way too many to mention. But those of you who know him, also know that when he takes on a commitment, he does not quit until the job is done. Price has done little or no campaigning for this position on the

school board, and has not and will not say negative things about his opponent. That is just not the way Price operates! But I can assure you, if Price is elected to the Guilford County Board of Education, he will do an incredible job representing all of the children of High Point. Price loves this town, and is committed to helping make the Guilford County school system the very best that it can be. Therefore, I wholeheartedly encourage you to vote for Ed Price for the position on the Guilford County Board of Education! BILL MILLIS High Point
Price will build school coalitions and make things happen Surprising as it may seem (to some who know him) Ed Price can be quiet and effective. While others often want to take credit for something, you will always find Price working behind the scenes to get things done. He knows when to speak up and when to act! Price values others’ opinions, respects differences and when necessary has been known to move mountains to accomplish his task at hand. Visionary would be a term to aptly describe him. While some have used the word “quirky,” most of us know that this personality trait just shows his ingenious, out-of-the-box way of thinking and a partial reason he is so approachable by all. So no, he doesn’t appear to approach things the way so many of us might, but Price has a proven track record of building a coalition to make things happen. Whether this be a group of PTA parents, parents of special needs children, or everyday people who hear his voice as the plea for a cause and lastly business owners in and around our beloved neighborhoods. Bringing people together in this manner takes expansive knowledge and gutless talent. Let’s put him to work for us in an area so desperately in need of true accountability – our school system. Many of us know “where we have been” in the “whirlpool” of the Guilford County school system, but not everyone can lead with quiet resolution and regard, as well as true ability and character. Price’s door is always open and his cell phone always on. He will listen and act in the best interests of all. There is no politics in this ... it is a matter of community – your community. Ed Price can and will lead if you cast your vote for him on Nov. 2. ANGELA JOHNSON High Point

If voters are looking for a change, then Phil Wadsworth is definitely the change Guilford County needs. I have known Wadsworth for 35+ years and have always found him to be honest, hardworking and dependable. He is a person who does what he says, and one never has to worry if the job will be done right. Wadsworth was an outstanding leader on the Highway Patrol and worked oftentimes behind the scenes giving others the credit. It is true that he may not have the finances to get his name plastered on billboards, but he is known throughout the county as a person that is well-qualified to be the next sheriff of Guilford County. Thirty years in law enforcement, working with other departments and organizations not only in Guilford County, but throughout the state, has helped to give him experience in leadership and keep him abreast of the current changes in law enforcement. My only regret is that I cannot personally give Wadsworth my vote, since I do not live in Guilford County. The citizens will be proud to say they have Phil Wadsworth as their new sheriff.

Nancy Routh for re-election to the Guilford County Board of Education. I first met Routh 40 years ago when we taught together at Hampton Elementary School. As a first-year teacher, I remember being in awe of Routh’s knowledge, professionalism and, most especially, her love for and dedication to her students. Later, our paths crossed again when she served as principal of Irving Park Elementary School, which my three children attended. The school thrived under her leadership and again her dedication to all the children at the school was most apparent. Routh was known for her fairness to each child and her desire to see that each pupil received the best education possible. Several years later, when I learned that Routh was running for the Guilford County Board of Education, I thought there certainly could not be a more qualified person to serve. I can honestly say that the person I have known all these years has always had the best interest of all children at heart. That is just the way she is! I am confident that Routh has, and will continue to, work toward making sure that all our children are given the best possible opportunities to learn and excel, and I sincerely hope that you will join me in enthusiastically voting to re-elect Nancy Routh to the Guilford County Board of Education on Nov. 2.

I have known and supervised Phil Wadsworth for his entire career with the North Carolina Highway Patrol. As a trooper, he was always a leader that other troopers looked up to for advice. As a sergeant, Wadsworth did outstanding work with the nine counties that he worked with. He was in charge of the Public Information Office for Troop D. He always conducted himself in a professional way and always worked hard for the Highway Patrol. He was the guy you went to to get things done. Wadsworth is honest, courteous, a hard worker and is people oriented. Wadsworth was and still is dedicated to all of the citizens of Guilford County and this state. I am going to vote for Phil Wadsworth for sheriff and ask everyone else to vote for him, too. GLENN CONRAD Greensboro

City’s review committee holds first meeting BY PAM HAYNES ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
HIGH POINT – Taking its first step toward analyzing the city’s incentive policies, the Economic Incentive Review Committee focused much of its meeting on Thursday on becoming familiar with existing policies. The review committee was formed in recent weeks at the request of the High Point City Council to get an unbiased, fresh perspective on the current incentives offered to attract businesses to the area. It will report its findings to the High Point Economic Development Corp.
and the City Project within three months. The City Council then will consider adopting any revisions. According to the EDC, the city has approved $13 million in economic incentives for 28 companies investing $409 million in the city’s tax base since 1993, but the city has only paid $9.4 million to date. Incentive checks are written over a three- to fiveyear period as companies reach certain benchmarks, said EDC President Loren Hill. The city’s economic incentives guidelines require existing High Point companies to invest at least $2 million in north High
Point or $1 million in south High Point to qualify for incentives. New companies must invest at least $17.5 million in north High Point or $4 million in south High Point to be eligible. Businesses considering areas targeted for improvement in High Point, however, such as Macedonia or Washington Street, have to invest at least $250,000 if it is an existing company or $500,000 if it is a new company. Councilman Chris Whitley, a member of the review committee, told committee members that while these policies were in place, the city isn’t obligated to offer incentives to companies
that meet the criteria. “Policy is just that,” Whitley said. “Council can go beyond it or under it with no obligation to entertain every company that applies for incentives.” When asked what the greatest challenges with incentives policies had been so far, Whitley said enhancing policies and including non-monetary incentives had been issues in the past. “This is what we’re here for,” Whitley told the committee. “Council wanted to get some new blood to look at concepts and make some changes.” phaynes@hpe.com | 888-3617

ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT
HIGH POINT – High Point commuters now have a new option for getting around in the Triad. The Piedmont Authority for Regional Transportation cut the ribbon on its new park-and-ride lot in north High Point on Thursday. Located at the intersection of Old N. Main Street and Plank Road, the lot gives residents of the area access to the PART Express regional bus system, which connects major cities and rural areas in the Piedmont. There are 14 PART Express routes offered during weekdays, with two routes running on weekends. The PART bus system connects 23 park-and-ride lots in the region. The lot, ringed by a white fence, is along Old Plank Road across from the Aldi grocery store. The entrance and exit to the lot are less than a block from the ramp for U.S. 311. PART encourages commuters to use the new lot, particularly those in carpools or vanpools. The lot also serves as a passenger pick-up point for High Point’s Hi tran bus system. The lot was built on property owned by N.C. Department of Transportation and has a total of 197 spaces. The $327,500 facility was built with public funds from the Federal Transit Administration, American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. The engineering firm that designed the facility was David-Martin-Powell and Associates Inc. of High Point. Environmental reviews were performed by the Forsyth County Environmental Affairs Department. Construction of the facility was managed by M&M Builders Inc. of High Point.

Former High Point developer dies BY PAM HAYNES ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
HIGH POINT – A man who left his architectural mark on High Point passed away earlier this week. Larry Gildea, 59, was a prominent real estate developer with Liberty Property Trust and was credited with developing significant portions of the Piedmont Centre in North High Point in the mid-1990s. He died at Carolinas Medical Center in Charlotte on Oct. 24 after a yearlong battle with lung cancer. His funeral was held in Charlotte on Thursday.
Do you know anyone who deserves some extra attention? You can submit names and photographs of people who could be profiled in the daily “Who’s News” column in The High Point Enterprise. Send information to: Who’s News, The High Point Enterprise, P.O. Box 1009, High Point, NC 27261. E-mail versions with an attached color photograph can be sent to whosnews@hpe.com.
Gildea, a Pennsylvania native, spent part of his 26-year career with Liberty Property Trust in High Point from 1988-2008 before relocating to Charlotte. He played a large role in developing the Mendenhall section at Piedmont Centre, as well as Federal Ridge and the nearby Green Point Business Park. Gildea spent the last years of his career living and working in Charlotte, but he remained connected to the area. He was an active member of the High Point Urban Design Task Force. In the past, he served as chairman of the site selection committee of the Greensboro Chapter of Habi-
tat for Humanity and chairman of the Board of Education of Our Lady of Grace Catholic School in Greensboro. He received a key to the city of High Point for his service and commitment to the city. Strib Boynton, High Point city manager, who met Gildea when he was hired by the city in 1998, said Gildea’s development efforts led to the creation of numerous jobs. “He was an incredible person to work with,” Boynton said. “The legacy that he left is found in 11,000 to 12,000 jobs in north High Point. It’s a testimony to his vision and his capacity to build a community.”
YOUR COMMUNITY. YOUR NEWSPAPER.
“The Piedmont Centre is a standard by itself,” added Mayor Becky Smothers, who also worked with Gildea. “Larry had exceptional sensitivity to the history of the area and was concerned that the land be developed in a manner that was quality. And it definitely is.” John Brandon, a vice president at Liberty Property Trust who joined the High Point branch in 1996, said Gildea was admired by friends, community leaders and work colleagues. “He was a man of high integrity, and he will be sorely missed,” he said. phaynes@hpe.com | 888-3617

Dear Blocked Writer: What an amazing gift those journals will be. However, allow me to caution you against giving them to your son when his child is born. There will be a lot going on at that time, and you do not want to distract from that momentous occasion. My advice is to wait until his next milestone birthday and present them to him when heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 25. And because you enjoy journaling, consider starting one about your own life then. Dear Abby: I have

Nelson Bryner, an investigator with the National Institute of Standards and Technology, discusses the findings of a study into the 2007 Sofa Super Store fire that killed nine firefighters.
Feds: Sprinklers wouldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve contained fatal SC fire CHARLESTON, S.C. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Sprinklers in the loading dock of a Charleston furniture store would have contained a fire that killed nine firefighters more than three years ago, a new federal study concluded Thursday. The Commerce Departmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s National Institute of Standards and Technology also found the large open display space and large quantities of flammable furniture increased the spread of the flames at the Sofa Super Store in July 2007. The long-awaited draft report also suggested that firefighters breaking front windows about 40 minutes after the blaze was reported let the flames spread quickly through the showroom. However Nelson Bryner, who led the study,
said by the time that was done â&#x20AC;&#x201C; four minutes after a firefighter inside radioed a Mayday â&#x20AC;&#x201C; conditions inside the building were already untenable for the firefighters. The institute conducted complex computer modeling to determine why the fire spread so quickly, why the building collapsed and whether sprinklers could have saved firefighters. The modeling did find the fire, which broke out in trash on a loading dock at the furniture store, would have been contained in that area had there been sprinklers. The model showed â&#x20AC;&#x153;the sprinklers activate within 50 to 75 seconds and the fire does not spread beyond the loading dock,â&#x20AC;? Bryner said. Mayor Joseph P. Riley
Journal of sonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life is gift worthy of special occasion ear Abby: I have been keeping a journal for my son since he was born 22 years ago. I have never missed a single day. I write about him regardless of whether I see him or not. Sometimes Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll jot down a verse I remembered, or something happening in his world or an item of newsworthy information. I have also written my thoughts about his life and decisions. My dilemma is when I should give these writings to him. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to keep them indefinitely because they are meant for him. He is married and has a son on the way. My inclination is to give him the writings of his life on the occasion of his sonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s birth. He has no idea Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been doing this, so it will be a complete surprise. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d appreciate your input. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Blocked Writer in Oklahoma
Since
always enjoyed Halloween. I like seeing the children in their costumes and, ADVICE for most of the little Dear ones, it is Abby a fun and â&#x2013; â&#x2013; â&#x2013; magical time. In our neighborhood, a group of 15 to 20 parents escort their trick-ortreating children from door to door. Sometimes there are 25 to 30 kids. When they approach a house for their treats, the parents remain on the sidewalk, apparently oblivious to whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going on when the door opens. We have a small front porch that rises about 8 inches above the sidewalk. The kids push and shove, jockeying for position to get their â&#x20AC;&#x153;loot.â&#x20AC;? Last year, a 5-year-old fell off our porch. Fortunately, she was not hurt. The parents did not issue any directions to their children to take turns accepting our candy because they were too busy chatting among themselves. Because of the inherent danger to unsupervised children (and the possibility of a lawsuit if there should be an accident), I will not be turning on my porch light this year â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the signal in our area that alerts kids that the home is participating in trick-or-treat. I hope my letter will remind parents to practice
Looking for bargains? Check out the sales today in
mindfulness and make this Sunday a Happy Halloween! â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Lights Out in Harrisburg Dear Lights Out: So do I, and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m printing your letter, which arrived just in time for me to include it in todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s column. Last year your neighbors were lucky the child who fell didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t break a wrist or an ankle. Parents, when escorting your little ghosts, goblins and vampires, please remain vigilant. Common sense must prevail.
Jr. said the report gives new weight to the effort to require sprinklers in homes and older businesses. â&#x20AC;&#x153;An important legacy of the Sofa Super Store fire nationally will give strength to the movement ... for states to more agressively adopt building codes that have automatic sprinkler standards,â&#x20AC;? he said. The study was a scientific one, and did not focus on the actions of the firefighters or their leaders, Bryner said. Attorney Richard Rosen, who represents the owners of the store in wrongful death suits, released a statement saying the store was inspected by the city a little more than a year before the fire.

Dear Abby: Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m in love with my best friend. It seems so simple when I say it, but when it comes to telling him, the words never come out right.

Ear noise can drive one crazy
D
ear Dr. Donohue: I have tinnitus. It’s driving me crazy. My doctor says there is no cure for it. Today a friend gave me a bottle of eardrops that are supposed to bring relief. I have enclosed the ingredients in it. Does it sound suspicious to you? – W.J.
BLONDIE
HEALTH Dr. Paul Donohue ■■■
It sounds suspicious to me. The only eardrops I know that lessen tinnitus are drops that soften impacted earwax prior to its removal. Earwax is sometimes a cause of tinnitus. And then there is a very rare inflammatory condition that responds to cortisone eardrops. For most, however, drops don’t do a thing for tinnitus, including the kind you sent me information on. Or so it seems to me. Tinnitus is a ringing, buzzing, hissing or roaring noise heard in one or both ears. Treatable causes of tinnitus include a tumor of the hearing nerve and Meniere’s disease. Meniere’s disease features three symptoms: tinnitus, hearing loss and dizziness. The three come in attacks. The time between attacks shortens until symptoms are present more or less constantly. One of the major causes of tinnitus is hearing loss. People with normal hearing, if put in a soundproof room, will begin to experience tinnitus. That’s because they’re no longer exposed to background noise, which suppresses tinnitus. People who are hard of hearing never

hear that background noise, and tinnitus becomes pronounced. If hearing loss causes your tinnitus, a hearing aid will greatly
help you. Tinnitus maskers are devices similar to a hearing aid. They transmit a constant input of nondistracting sound that quiets tinnitus. You can achieve the same effect at night by tuning a bedside radio to soothing music or dialing to a spot that produces only static. Tinnitus retraining therapy is a technique that accustoms people to their tinnitus so that it becomes an unobtrusive sound that doesn’t enter their consciousness. The training takes one or two years and is offered only in a few places. An ear, nose and throat doctor will tell you if there is a nearby facility that teaches this method of tinnitus control. I checked all your medicines. None is responsible for your tinnitus. Contact the American Tinnitus Association on the Internet at www.ata. org. You’ll find it provides you with a wealth of information. If you don’t have a computer, a friend, a relative or the local library will help you make contact. Dear Dr. Donohue: My doctor showed me
my X-rays. My neck bones, he said, are reversed, and my spine bones look like an accordion. He wants to give me three treatments a week, which will amount to $3,000 in a year. He also says I have the symptoms of multiple sclerosis. I am 66. I manage to do things, but it is painful. Will this condition grow worse without treatment, and will I end up in a wheelchair? Could I simply remain the same as now? – G.L. I don’t know what the doctor means when he says your neck bones are reversed and your spine looks like an accordion. I wouldn’t consider three weekly treatments that amount to a yearly output of $3,000 without seeking a second opinion. If you want a specialist, see a rheumatologist or an orthopedic surgeon. I suspect you have osteoarthritis of the spine, a condition that happens to many, many people with age. It hardly ever progresses to the point that a patient requires a wheelchair. You’re more likely to remain just as you are. Osteoarthritis progresses slowly for most people. Incidentally, MS usually starts at much younger ages. 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

Stewart knows Talladega draft game T
ony Stewart knows how to play the restrictor-plate drafting game at Talladega Superspeedway. Stewart owns one victory and six seconds in 23 Cup starts at the 2.66-mile track. He has been known to use the strategy of running near the back of the pack for the better part of races as a way to prevent getting caught in the big crashes that are the result of the entire field running together. The two-time series champ says running in the back is possible because the draft allows a charge to the front in the last 10 laps. Everything before that in Sunday’s 500-mile race is just window dressing for those not interested in getting in a hurry until the end. They will start preparing for the finish in practice today. Qualifying is scheduled Saturday. “The hard thing is that it’s a 188-lap race, but the last 10 laps are what really matter and set the tone for what’s going to happen on the last lap,” Stewart said this week during a teleconference. “You basically in those 178 laps are trying to take care of yourself. “Racers are still racers. There will be guys in a hurry at the beginning of the race, there are guys that appear to be in a hurry, but they’re trying to see what they have carwise. There will be guys that drop to the back, not because they have a problem, but because they’re trying to take care of themselves, not get into a position they can’t get out of. A lot of times it’s selfpreservation. You have to let the guys that are impatient, in a hurry, you have to let them do their thing and you have to stick to your plan. It’s hard to anticipate what everybody’s individual race plans are going to be.” For those who choose to ride in the back, not losing time and the draft as a result of green-flag pit stops is a key. “A lot of times when you’re coming in, there are guys finishing two-tire stops or took fuel and are on their way out,” Stewart said. “That’s one of the more challenging parts to take it easy and be careful. I think guys have an idea of how they want to run their race and I think guys are comfortable with the strategy that they use. “There’s a lot of guys in the field that are still fight-
ing for jobs. Those guys don’t really have that flexibility to ride around. They’re trying to SPORTS impress car owners. Greer Those guys Smith are fighting ■■■ all day long to stay up as high as they can, and there’s guys that have done this a long time that have a more methodical approach to it. The great thing about Talladega is you can’t count anybody out. Those last 10 laps is when everything is going to happen and guys are going to play different strategies at times, especially with Chase guys.” Another important part of playing the game is not hanging out drivers in the draft early because they might be needed for a push to the front at the end. “You can hang that guy out to dry, but it can come back and cost you later on in the day when you need that guy’s help,” Stewart said. “You learn to think about what’s important during the race. Part of the strategy isn’t necessarily what you’re doing, but it’s also about how you’re running with guys around you and working with those guys to where later in the race, they’re behind you, you feel like you have their support that you took care of them early in the race and they’re going to take care of you at the end.”

Freddy Sanchez atoned for getting doubled up by hitting more doubles. Sanchez became the first player ever to double in his first three World Series at-bats, driving in three runs to help the San Francisco Giants beat the Texas Rangers 117 in Game 1 late Wednesday night. Sanchez became the 10th batter in World Series history with three doubles in one game and the first since Jacoby Ellsbury did it for Boston in Game 3 in 2007 against Colorado.

Duke’s Nolan Smith (2) and Mason Plumlee (rear), shown celebrating a 90-70 victory over Wake Forest in this Jan. 17, 2010 file photo, look to flex their muscles for the top-ranked Blue Devils again this season. Duke was a runaway choice for No. 1 in the Associated Press preseason poll.
Duke tops AP preseason poll BY JIM O’CONNELL AP BASKETBALL WRITER
Inside...
Defending national champion Duke was a runaway No. 1 in The Associated Press preseason Top 25 men’s basketball poll. At the other end of the Top 25 there was big news Thursday with San Diego State entering the rankings for the first time ever. Duke, on top for a seventh time, has two starters returning to a roster featuring highly touted freshman Kyrie Irving and transfer Seth Curry, Stephen’s little brother. Hall of Fame coach Mike Krzyzewski doesn’t think it’s fair to say a team is trying to repeat when there have been so many changes since the Blue Devils beat Butler for their fourth national championship. “To repeat is a bad word (to use),” said Krzyzewski, who spent the summer leading the U.S. national team to the gold medal at the world championship. “What you want to do is have the same result, of winning the national championship, but figure out what journey you’re going to be on along the way. And so pursue is a good word for me, and develop. We’re going to be a developing team throughout.” They’re also a team that garnered 55 first-place votes from the 65-member na-

Complete AP Top 25 poll. 2C tional media panel, easily outdistancing Michigan State, which had eight No. 1 votes. Kansas State was third, followed by Ohio State and Pittsburgh. Kansas State, which matched its highest ranking since 1962, got the other two first-place votes. Pittsburgh, Villanova, Kansas, North Carolina, Florida and Syracuse round out the top 10. Since the preseason poll began in the 1961-62 season, Duke’s seven No. 1 nods are tied with North Carolina and one behind all-time leader UCLA. The six previous preseason No. 1 rankings turned into one national championship (repeating in 1991-92), one national runner-up (1998-99), one other Final Four appearance (1988-89), two regional semifinal losses (2001-02, 2005-06) and one second-round exit (1978-79). Kentucky, which had five underclassmen taken in the first round of the NBA draft, was 11th followed by Gonzaga, Illinois, Purdue, Missouri, Baylor, Butler, Washington, Memphis and Georgetown. The last five ranked teams were Virginia Tech, Temple, Tennessee, BYU and San Diego State.

T
he high school football regular season features just two more weeks of action. Before we focus on those regular-season finales, we’re treated to several pre-Halloween goodies tonight. T.W. Andrews visits Carver in a game that should decide the PAC6 2A regular-season championship. In the Central Carolina 2A Conference, Thomasville heads to Salisbury knowing that a win puts the Bulldogs a giant step closer to the league crown. The Bulldogs close the regular season with a home game against long-time rival Lexington, so the Bulldogs will need to
avoid getting caught looking ahead. Other matchups may not carry as much title weight, but they’re intriguing nonetheless. High Point Central plays at much-improved Southwest Guilford in the final installment of this year’s High Point public school pigskin round robin. The Bison and Cowboys are playing for postseason seeding as well as city pride, so look for a spirited battle. Ledford travels to Southern Guilford for a Mid-Piedmont 3A clash. The Panthers have endured a tough season so far, but an upset of the Storm
would do wonders for their morale. East meets West, meanwhile, when the Golden Eagles invade Tyro to take on the Green Dragons. Neither squad has set the Central Carolina 2A Conference on fire. Still, county rivalries usually make for intense action. Toss in Ragsdale at Glenn, Randleman at Wheatmore, Trinity at Atkins, West Stokes at Bishop McGuinness and Hickory Grove at High Point Christian Academy, and you’ve got another great prep football Friday night. Enjoy!

EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. (AP) — The signs of progress are small but noticeable for Brett Favre and his injured left ankle. Favre missed his second straight day of practice for the Minnesota Vikings on Thursday, but walked around the facility without the oversized boot which had been protecting an injury that is putting his league-record 291straight starts streak in jeopardy. The 41-year-old quarterback limped through the locker room with a heavy wrap on his ankle, which was injured in the loss to Green Bay on Sunday night. Asked if he thought he could play against New England, Favre said, “I wouldn’t put anything past me, to be honest with you.” Favre has a stress fracture in the ankle as well as an avulsion fracture in the heel bone, where a fragment has been torn away by a tendon or ligament. He consulted with the doctors who performed surgery on his ankle this summer to get him ready for a 20th NFL season, and was told that the injury would not get any worse by playing on it. “He’s been a little better every day,” coach Brad Childress said Thursday. “Whether it’s good enough to play in an NFL football game remains to be seen. Just have to take it a day at a time.” He was still in pain as he hobbled around Thursday, which is nothing new for the NFL’s version of Iron Man. Favre has played in 315 straight games including the playoffs, by far the longest streak in league history. Vikings offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell, who was Favre’s quarterbacks coach in Green Bay, said he would be surprised if Favre’s streak ended Sunday. “Surprising would probably be a good word,” Bevell said. “He’s never not been out there, so it would probably be a surprise.”

Boston’s Wakefield gets Clemente Award SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Boston Red Sox pitcher Tim Wakefield is the recipient of the 2010 Roberto Clemente Award, given annually to a major league player who gives back through community service and also excels on the field. Wakefield was presented the award by commissioner Bud Selig and Vera Clemente, Roberto’s widow, before Game 2 of the World Series on Thursday night at AT&T Park. Since 2004, Wakefield has been actively involved with the nonprofit “Pitching in for Kids,” which provides grants to improve the lives of children across the New England region and encourages kids to participate in special events to learn important life skills and the spirit of helping others in a community. Fundraisers co-hosted by Wakefield have helped raise nearly $1 million. The 44-year-old Wakefield, who went 4-10 with a 5.34 ERA this year in his 18th major league season, also supports the Space Coast Early Intervention Center in his hometown of Melbourne, Fla. New York Yankees captain Derek Jeter won last year’s award. Other Roberto Clemente Award winners include 13 Hall of Famers — with Tony Gwynn, Cal Ripken Jr. and Ozzie Smith among that group. St. Louis slugger Albert Pujols won in 2008.

GTCC women ranked 11th in preseason Div. II poll SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE
JAMESTOWN – Having his GTCC Lady Titans ranked No. 11 in the nation in the preseason poll of Division II teams in the National Junior College Athletic Association doesn’t impress Coach Bobby Allison. “A poll is just an opinion. We have to go on the court and prove that we deserve to be ranked,” he said. “I don’t know how good we are going to be early in the season but we should be pretty good by the end of the season,” Allison said. GTCC is the only nationally ranked women’s team in Region 10 of the NJCAA. Allison’s team opens the season with a non-conference game at 6 p.m. on Wednesday against the JV team from Mount Olive College at Ragsdale YMCA Gym. The team will be in a tournament at Louisburg next Friday and Saturday (Nov. 5-6). Allison is entering his second year at GTCC after leading the Titans to a 293 record last season, and running his record to 244-22. He was an award-winning coach with national contending teams at Mohawk Valley Community College in Utica, N.Y., before coming to GTCC. Allison gave cameo descriptions of several of several of his players. •Tracie Collins, a freshman point guard from New Bern, scored almost 2,000 points in high school. •Daquondra Cuthbertson, a secondyear player from Salisbury, who is “in better shape this year. She worked hard during the summer and is much improved.” The six-footer is a versatile player. •Tori Hardy, a prize-recruit from R.J. Reynolds High in Winston-Salem, is 5-10 who “can post up inside or shoot from the outside.” •Jessica Hill of Thomasville, a second-year player who was named “most improved’ on last year’s team. “By the

end of the season she understood how to play in our system.” •Jeanette Oxner of Monroe is a point guard transfer from Pfeiffer University. “She is super quick and a good outside scorer.” •Taryn Spicer of Ontario, a 6-2 center who is “strong around the basket and has a good shooting touch.” •Makee Suggs of Greenville, returns for her second season after going down with a broken wrist after playing eight games last season. “We really missed her; she was the No. 2 shot blocker in the nation when she went down with the injury. She is a jet; probably the fastest player I’ve ever had on a team.” •Dragana Tomic of Belgrade, a second year player, who “really worked hard over the summer on her outside shot and is much improved. She also is a good defender.” •Jessica Watkins of Lynchburg is a transfer student from High Point University, who is coming off an ACL injury. “A super player; she fits our system well. She is strong and quick and she can shoot the three.” •Asia Wheeler of Brooklyn is a sixfoot forward, who is “very similar to Watkins in the way she plays. She is a big-time shot-blocker; and can shoot inside or outside.” •Bria Wilkins of Greenville, NC, returns for her second season and is “playing very well. She has improved her jump shot.” •Erin Naylor of Winston-Salem, another RJR player, is “one of our better shooters. She is a zone buster.” •Shaunese Crawford of The Bronx is a freshman guard who is very quick and good on the press. •Pearl Henriques of New York City, a freshman, is a great perimeter shooter. •Willette Oxner of Monroe also is a quick guard who is a “great ball defender.” •Brittany Wilkins of Greenville is a good defender and good rebounding guard.
RCR, KHI merge Nationwide efforts ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT
KERNERSVILLE – Kevin Harvick Inc. and Richard Childress Racing officially confirmed Thursday that they will combine their Nationwide Series efforts next season, with KHI fielding the cars out of its shops here and RCR supplying engines, chassis and technical support. RCR owner Richard Childress said the move will allow his team to focus on two Truck Series teams for his grandson Austin Dillon and a driver to be names as its driver development program. RCR’s Nationwide effort has shrank from as many as three fulltime teams in 2006 and 2007 down to one part-time team this season because of lack of sponsorship. RCR began this season with driver John Wes Townley and sponsorship from his family’s Zaxby’s restaurants but RCR dropped Townley after a series of crashes early in the season. “(Kevin and I) have talked about having a joint endeavor for several years and, looking at 2011, the timing couldn’t be more right,” Childress said in a statement. “With RCR fielding at least two Truck Series teams next year, the trade-off is for us to help KHI with its Nationwide Series efforts. It’s a positive step for both companies.” Harvick, who drives for Childress in the Cup Series, has fielded Nationwide cars since 2005 – winning nine races and 12 poles. “We thought, at this point, both programs would really benefit from this new structure since the Nationwide Series new cars will be so similar to our Sprint Cup cars,” Harvick said. KHI will continue to field two teams in the NASCAR Truck Series.
Savvy sophs set to lead GTCC men SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE
JAMESTOWN – GTCC men’s basketball team, coming off one of the best records since the sport was introduced at the college five years ago, will be depending on a few savvy sophomore players and key freshmen recruits for success in the upcoming season. The Titans open the season at 6 p.m. Monday in a home contest against Southside Community College at Ragsdale YMCA. Not a single player returns from GTCC’s Carolinas-Virginia Conference championship team of a year ago. The Titans reeled off a 17-1 conference record and a 28-4 overall mark. GTCC finished last season as the No. 4 ranked team in Division II of the National Junior College Athletic Association. Preseason rankings have the Titans rated No. 14 team in the country. Among five sophomores on the roster are three who played for GTCC in the past and two who have played at other colleges. Several of the nine freshmen players will be expected to play key roles, according to Coach Phil Gaffney. “I am cautiously optimistic about the upcoming season. We have good depth at the guard position, and we have quite a few guys who should fit very well into our system,” Gaffney said. “We will be very young, so we hope to mature as quickly as possible because our first few games will be against tough competition. By the end of the year we expect to be competitive and in a position to win a Region X tournament championship.” One of the top sophomores is Donald Anderson of Concord, who played at GTCC three years ago. He averaged
4.1 points per game that season, and is rated by Gaffney as the best defensive player on the team. Jerrell Dawson of Statesville and Darius Perry of Raleigh played for GTCC two seasons ago. Dawson is a good perimeter shooter for a power forward and will compete for a starting position. Perry is a 6-8 forward who will play a backup role. Transfer players Marcus Brown of WinstonSalem and Stephen Gillette of Burlington are the other two sophomores, and Gaffney rates both as good shooters. Brown was a starter for Surry Community College two years ago before that school dropped its basketball program. Brown was an all-conference player at Parkland High School. Gillette was a starter at Guilford College right out of high school after putting up some big numbers as an all-state player at Alamance Christian School. “He is an excellent shooter and rebounder and will have a great shot at starting at one of the forward spots,” Gaffney said. The good crop of freshmen provides some immediate help for the Titans and some who figure to contribute more as they gain experience. RaSean Brewington of Goldsboro, who led his high school to the 1A state championship and was named the Wayne County player of the year, is a strong candidate for a starting spot at small forward. Duane Brown, a 6-0 point guard from Charlotte, could give the Titans a starting guard tandem of Brown and Brown. “Duane is an exceptionally quick point guard with a solid midrange shooting game,” Gaffney said. Another bright spot is freshman Ethan Joyce of
Faith Christian School in Ramseur, who was selected for first team all-state honors, after compiling 18.6 points per game and 10.2 rebounds per game. The other freshmen are: Tyson Jones, a 6-1 guard from Cummings High in Burlington, who will play a reserve role. Dennis Mesidor, a 65 forward from Silver Spring, Md., who is “a very athletic forward” competing for a starting position. Jerrell Milliner, an allleague forward at Eastern Randolph High, who “may be the best pure shooter on the team.” Lance Rhoden, of Orange, N.J., was a “high scoring guard (16.6 points per game) as a senior playing in a very tough league. He should be an offensive spark off the bench this season,” Gaffney said. Omar Nuboer from Surnam offers some size at 64 as a backup guard. Andre Batte of Harrisburg, Pa., is “a strong shooting guard who will definitely see some playing time off the bench.”

Mavericks spoil Bobcats’ opener DALLAS (AP) – Dallas coach Rick Carlisle’s top priorities entering the season are to improve defensively and defend home court better. The Mavericks did both, plus got a big night from Dirk Nowitzki. Nowitzki had 28 points and 13 rebounds, Jason Kidd added 12 points and 18 assists, and Dallas beat the Charlotte Bobcats 101-86 on Wednesday night in the opener for both teams. Dallas was 15th in the league in field goal defense and won 28 home games in 2009-10. This season Carlisle wants his team among the NBA’s top 10 defensive teams with 30-plus home wins.

The Mavericks limited the Bobcats to 39.7 percent from the field. Dallas forced 21 turnovers, leading to 28 points, and finished with 12 steals and five blocked shots. “Our good offense put us in position to guard better,” said Carlisle, who turned 51 on Wednesday. “We are one game in, but our defensive numbers are better than they have been. It’s the foundation for success.” Jason Terry added 22 points and Caron Butler scored 13 for Dallas. Tyrus Thomas scored 22 points and Gerald Wallace had 16 for the Bobcats, who’ve never beaten the Mavericks in 13 meetings. 10463 N.

Larazabal leads in Andalucia; Kaymer struggles THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SOTOGRANDE, Spain – Spain’s Pablo Larazabal shot a 5-under 66 to take the first-round lead Thursday in the Andalucia Masters, while Germany’s Martin Kaymer struggled in his attempt to overtake Tiger Woods in the world rankings. Kaymer needs to win or finish in a second-place tie with no more than one other player to supplant Woods at No. 1. Kaymer shot a first-round 72, leaving him six shots off the pace and tied for 28th at Valderrama. The 27-year-old Larazabal broke two shots clear of the field with birdies at the 16th and 17th holes during his a bogey-
free round. Northern Ireland’s Graeme McDowell shot 68 to share second with Ireland’s Damien McGrane. Kaymer said before the tournament that his priority was winning the second Race to Dubai as the top moneywinner on the European Tour, but that could be in jeopardy after McDowell’s strong opening round. The Northern Irishman is second in earnings behind Kaymer, and if the U.S. Open champion wins Sunday he would close the gap with four lucrative events remaining. McDowell was Kaymer’s playing partner Thursday when the German missed a putt from 18 inches on No. 11, drove into a bunker at the next and then drove into trees at the 13th.
McDowell, whose 68 included three birdies and no bogeys, said afterward that it was too early to write off Kaymer’s chances of winning his fourth straight stroke-play tournament. “Martin is never very far away from playing well,” he said. “And although he hit a few loose shots he generally hung in pretty well.” McDowell isn’t the only Irish golfer to present a threat to Kaymer over the remaining three rounds in Andalucia. Gareth Maybin of Northern Ireland is also in the top six, as are Ireland’s McGrane and Michael Hoey. And although none is in the same bighitting class as Kaymer, their controlled games are ideally suited to the narrow
tree-lined fairways at Valderrama.
BARNES SHOOTS 63 FOR LEAD SELANGOR, Malaysia – Ricky Barnes shot an 8-under 63 Thursday to take the lead after the first round of the inaugural Asia Pacific Classic, the first PGA Tour-sanctioned event in Southeast Asia. The 29-year-old American, seeking his first professional victory, had what he called a “stress-free” round sprinkled with eight birdies. Ryan Moore (64) trails by one stroke, while Canadian Open winner Carl Pettersson (65) was two back along with Brian Davis and Charlie Wi. Ernie Els and Luke Donald shot 67.

Officemax shares surge on results NAPERVILLE, Ill. (AP) – Shares of Officemax Inc. soared Thursday after the office supply provider said cost cutting helped nearly triple its third-quarter net income. The performance handily beat Wall Street expectations and the company’s stock surged $2.13, or 14.3 percent, to $16.98 in midday trading. For the three months ended Sept. 25, the company reported net income of $20 million, or 23 cents per share, up from $5.7 million, or 7 cents per share, in the year ago period. On average, analysts polled by Thomson Reuters expected a profit of 12 cents per share.
Forecast dims for 2011 WASHINGTON (AP) – The job market and the economy will improve only slightly next year, according to an Associated Press survey of leading economists whose outlook for 2011 has dimmed over the past three months. The latest quarterly AP Economy Survey shows economists are pushing back their estimates of when key barometers of economic health — hiring, spending, expansion — will signal strength. In their view, shoppers and employers will stay cautious. Households will keep saving. Inflation will remain tame. And unemployment will
dip only a bit from the current 9.6 percent rate to a still-high 9 percent at the end of 2011. In the previous survey in July, the economists predicted unemployment of 8.7 percent at the end of next year. In the survey before that, they foresaw 8.4 percent. Some now think unemployment won’t drop to a historically normal 5.5 percent to 6 percent until at least 2018 — several years later than envisioned earlier. It adds up to a grim picture for the new Congress that begins in January. Voter frustration over unemployment is threatening to cost Democrats their control of the House,
and maybe the Senate, in the midterm elections Tuesday. The new Congress appears unlikely to approve more spending to try to invigorate the economy and the job market. And the Federal Reserve is running out of options. Yet the economists the AP surveyed still expect the economy to sidestep some threats that had raised concerns in recent months. They dismiss the likelihood of a second recession, for instance, and they think the risk of deflation is remote. Deflation is a prolonged drop in prices and wages that can make people unwilling to spend.
The economists are sharply split on whether the Fed should buy Treasury bonds to try to further lower loan rates. . And they overwhelmingly oppose another round of government stimulus spending. The AP survey collected the views of 43 leading private, corporate and academic economists on a range of indicators, including employment, consumer spending and inflation. Among their forecasts: • The economy will expand just 2.7 percent next year, scarcely more than the tepid growth predicted for all of 2010. Under an economic rule

Eastman Kodak posts narrower loss ROCHESTER, N.Y. (AP) – Vigorous inkjet printer sales, lower costs and a licensing gain from a rich array of digital-imaging inventions narrowed Eastman Kodak Co.’s third-quarter loss to $43 million. Kodak’s adjusted earnings handily beat Wall Street expectations Thursday, and its stock surged more than 12 percent.
Berkshire unit buys 2nd liquor distributor OMAHA, Neb. (AP) – A subsidiary of Warren Buffett’s company is buying a second liquor distribution company to expand into the Tennessee market. Terms of the McLane Co.’s purchase of Empire Distributors weren’t disclosed when the deal was announced Wednesday. McLane is a unit of Buffett’s Omaha-based Berkshire Hathaway Inc. McLane is based in Temple, Texas, and distributes groceries, tobacco and other items to convenience stores and other retailers. Earlier this year, McLane entered the liquor distribution business by buying Empire Distributors, which serves Georgia and North Carolina.
3M calls growth ‘uninspiring’ NEW YORK (AP) – 3M Co. said Thursday that growth in the U.S. and Western Europe is “uninspiring,” and it continues to shift more of its business to faster moving emerging markets. 3M also said it doesn’t see signs of a broad double-dip recession. “More than a year ago we forecast economic growth would slow in 2010 in some of our markets,” CEO George Buckley said.

• Shoppers will boost their spending 2.5 percent in 2011, slightly better than the increase that economists envision for this year. But spending would have to rise roughly twice that fast to deliver enough economic punch to lower unemployment. • Inflation will equal just 1.7 percent next year, about the minimum level of inflation the Fed thinks a healthy economy needs. • Americans will keep rebuilding their savings, leaving less money for spending. They’re expected to save 5.4 percent of disposable income next year.

A driverless vehicle, equipped with laser scanners and cameras to detect and help avoid obstacles, travels on the Shanghai Expo site in Shanghai, China, on Thursday.
Driverless vehicles trek from Italy to China SHANGHAI (AP) – Across Eastern Europe, Russia, Kazakhstan and the Gobi Desert — it certainly was a long way to go without getting lost. Four driverless electric vans successfully ended an 8,000-mile (13,000-kilometer) test drive from Italy to China — a modern-day version of Marco Polo’s journey around the world — with their arrival at the Shanghai Expo on Thursday. The vehicles, equipped with four solar-powered
laser scanners and seven video cameras that work together to detect and avoid obstacles, are part of an experiment aimed at improving road safety and advancing automotive technology. The technology will be used to study ways to complement drivers’ abilities. It also could have applications in farming, mining and construction, the researchers said. The sensors on the vehicles enabled them to navigate through wide ex-
tremes in road, traffic and weather conditions, while collecting data to be analyzed for further research, in a study sponsored by the European Research Council. “We didn’t know the route, I mean what the roads would have been and if we would have found nice roads, traffic, lots of traffic, medium traffic, crazy drivers or regular drivers, so we encountered the lot,” said Isabella Fredriga, a research engineer for the
project. Though the vans were driverless and mapless, they did carry researchers as passengers just in case of emergencies. The experimenters did have to intervene a few times — when the vehicles got snarled in a Moscow traffic jam and to handle toll stations. The project used no maps, often traveling through remote regions of Siberia and China. At one point, a van stopped to give a hitchhiker a lift.
Unifi continues to bounce back MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE
WINSTON-SALEM – Unifi Inc.’s remarkable comeback received two more financial boosts this week. Unifi, based in Greensboro but with its largest operations in Yadkinville, reported a fourfold increase in its net income to $10.2 million for
its first quarter of 2011, which ended Sept. 27. Sales were up 22 percent to $174 million. For perspective, Unifi made $10.7 million for all of fiscal 2010 -- its first profitable year since 2000. The company also gained shareholder approval for a one-for-three reverse stock split set to take effect Wednesday.
“We are pleased to begin our 2011 fiscal year with a profitable quarter, driven by the strong results of our underlying business,” said Bill Jasper, the president and chief executive of Unifi. “Although uncertainty remains around consumer demand amid rising raw-material prices, we are prepared to react quickly and are con-
fident in our ability to recoup raw-material cost increases we are experiencing. Michael Lord, an associate professor of management at Wake Forest University, said he is impressed that Unifi’s improved performance “is not just from cost-cutting, but from growth in sales that is particularly good given that the economy continues to be tough.”
WASHINGTON (AP) – Fewer people applied for unemployment benefits last week, the second drop in a row and a hopeful sign the job market could be improving. Still, economists cautioned that the trend would have to continue for several more weeks before a solid conclusion could be drawn that hiring is picking up. Applications for jobless benefits dropped by 21,000 to a seasonally adjusted 434,000 in the week that ended Oct. 23, the Labor Department said Thursday. It was the second-lowest number for firsttime claims this year. The only time it was lower was during the July 10 week, and that week was affected by the Independence Day holiday when state unemployment offices were closed.
Exxon income jumps NEW YORK (AP) – Exxon Mobil Corp. said Thursday that income jumped 55 percent in the third quarter on higher oil prices and increased production. The world’s largest publicly traded oil company reported earnings of $7.35 billion, or $1.44 per share, for the third quarter. That compares with $4.73 billion, or 98 cents per share, in the year-ago period. Revenue increased 15.8 percent to $95.3 billion.
Avon earnings rise 7 percent NEW YORK (AP) – Beauty-products seller Avon Products Inc.’s net income rose 7 percent in its third quarter, but earnings missed expectations as the company spent more on advertising and revenue from China sank.
Shares fell nearly 11 percent in morning trading. Weakness in Brazil and Russia drove down results, CEO Andrea Jung said. She said the company had weaker than expected results in both skin care and color cos-
metics categories. “(There were) technical challenges in Brazil and Russia that tempered sales during the quarter,” Jung said. “Despite this we maintained our commitment to strategic investment in our key geographies.”

Motorola posts sales jump NEW YORK (AP) – Motorola Inc. on Thursday posted its first year-over-year quarterly sales rise since 2006, when its Razr phone was still cutting-edge technology. The company’s phone division reported an operating profit for the first time in three years. It hadn’t expected that to happen until next quarter. The division is pulling out of a deep dive by betting on smart phones like the Droid X. Revenue rose 6 percent to $5.8 billion in the July to September period. The Schaumburg, Ill., company reported net income of $109 million, or 5 cents per share.
gust-September period, Goodyear earned $72 million, or 30 cents per share. Excluding write-offs and other charges, the company said it would have earned 13 cents a share. Analysts expected a 10-cent a share profit, excluding charges. Revenue rose 13 percent to $5 billion, and the number of tires sold rose 6 percent. The bright sales picture was blunted by raw material costs, up $381 million for the quarter. Goodyear said natural
rubber costs have skyrocketed threefold since early 2009. About half its rubber supply is natural, and half synthetic. Goodyear shares dropped 93 cents, or 8 percent, to $10.68 in morning trading. Richard J. Kramer, chairman and CEO, said improving sales pointed to continued industry recovery from the recession. Kramer said in a conference call with analysts that the company is benefiting from a global economic recovery.
Hanesbrands continues with strong earnings MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE
WINSTON-SALEM – Hanesbrands Inc. continues to make good on its bullish forecast for 2010, posting this week its third consecutive strong earnings performance. It also raised its sales and earnings guidance for the full year. Hanesbrands cited gains in shelf space and back-to-school sales for its profit soaring 49 percent to $61.3 million compared with a year ago. Sales were up nearly 11 percent to $1.17 billion, led by double-digit increases in outerwear and international sales. The company also reported having no restructuring charges during the third quarter compared with taking $15.1 million in charges a year ago. Richard Noll, the com-
pany’s chairman and chief executive, said in February that Hanesbrands was poised for strong growth in 2010 and beyond because of the popularity of its brands, its low-cost global supply chain, and strong cash flow. At that time, it projected 2010 sales growth of between 5 percent and 8 percent. Counting a projected $30 million in fourthquarter revenue from its Gear For Sports purchase -- a deal set to close Monday -- Hanesbrands has raised its full-year sales guidance to $4.3 billion. That’s up 10 percent from 2009 and just above 2008 sales of $4.26 billion. The company narrowed its 2010 earnings guidance to a range of $2.27 to $2.32 a share compared with $2.25 to $2.35. By comparison, its 2009 earnings were 54 cents.
Dow Chemical profit falls NEW YORK (AP) – The Dow Chemical Co. said its third-quarter financial performance improved as it sold more products on stronger demand, particularly in Europe, the Middle East and Africa. The chemical manufacturing giant, which produces basic ingredients for everything from toys to food additives, said revenue rose 7 percent and it recorded a 9 percent increase in overall prices from the year-ago quarter.
The nation’s largest chemical manufacturer by revenue said the results give it “confidence that a sustained global economic recovery, led by emerging economies, is firming despite headwinds.” For the July-September quarter, Dow Chemical reported a 28 percent decline in net income to $512 million, or 45 cents per share, which included some one-time items. Excluding those, Dow Chemical said it had earnings of 54 cents a share.

Stocks give up early gains NEW YORK (AP) – Stocks turned lower Thursday as investors dug through a raft of earnings reports that painted a mixed picture about the economy. The Dow Jones industrial average fell more than 30 points in midday trading. The market rose steadily in the opening moments of trading following a surprise drop in first-time claims for unemployment benefits. There was encouraging news in results from Eastman Kodak Co., which got a lift as more customers turned to home and office printers, an area the company is ramping up to replace its faltering photographic film business. Motorola Inc.’s phone division was profitable for the first time in three years as the company bets consumers will snap up more smart phones like the Droid X. But strong results at those companies were offset by disappointments at 3M Co. and Avon Products Inc. 3M’s grim view about the U.S. and European economies was a sobering reminder that growth in many developed nations remains weak. The maker of everything from Post-It notes to Scotch Tape called growth in those regions “uninspiring.” In a reversal of recent global growth trends, it was emerging markets that disappointed Avon investors. The beauty products seller said weakness in Brazil and Russia hurt quarterly profits. Many companies have relied heavily on expansion in developing countries to offset lagging sales in the U.S.

China lays claim to fastest supercomputer title BEIJING (AP) – A leading Chinese research center has built the world’s fastest supercomputer, an industry announcement said Thursday, underscoring the country’s rise as a science and technology powerhouse. The Tianhe-1 machine housed at the National Center for Supercomputing in the northern port city of Tianjin is capable of sustained computing of
2.507 petaflops, the equivalent of 2,507 trillion calculations, per second. The announcement was posted Thursday on Chinese computer research websites. An official listing of the world’s fastest supercomputers, the semiannual TOP500, is due to be issued Friday. If verified, Tianhe-1 would be significantly faster than the current
title holder, the U.S. Department of Energy’s Cray XT5 Jaguar in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, which topped the list issued in June at 1.75 petaflops per second. “This new speed achieved by China means we may replace the U.S. to hold the new world record,” Tianhe-1 Project Director Li Nan told state broadcaster CCTV in an interview.

College tuition costs climbing THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
College tuition costs shot up again this fall, and students and their families are leaning more on the federal government to make higher education more affordable in tough economic times, according to two reports issued Thursday. At public four-year schools, many of them ravaged by state budget cuts, average in-state tuition and fees this fall
rose 7.9 percent, or $555, to $7,605, according to the College Board’s “Trends in College Pricing.” The average sticker price at private nonprofit colleges increased 4.5 percent, or $1,164, to $27,293. Massive government subsidies and aid from schools helped keep in check the actual price many students pay. But experts caution that federal aid can only do so much and that even higher tuition is likely unless

Nissan recalls 2 million vehicles TOKYO – Nissan is recalling 2.14 million vehicles worldwide including the popular March and Mycra subcompacts for an ignition problem that may stall the engine – its thirdlargest recall ever. The recall affects cars in the the United States, Europe and Japan. A problem was found in an ignition-system part called the relay for vehicles produced from August 2003 through July 2006.

state appropriations rebound or colleges drastically cut costs. “Just when Americans need college the most, many are finding it increasingly difficult to afford,” said Molly Corbett Broad, president of the American Council on Education. When adjusted for inflation, the tuition increases this fall amount to 6.6 percent at public four-year colleges and 3.2 percent at private ones.

Thomasville man takes aim at marathon in Greece BY JIMMY TOMLIN ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
T
HOMASVILLE – From Grandfather Mountain to the granddaddy of ’em all, Thomasville attorney Ed Lewis has chalked up quite an impressive list of marathons. This weekend, the 65-year-old Lewis – an avid runner who has completed more than three dozen marathons – finds himself in Greece, preparing to run in Sunday’s Athens Classic Marathon, which commemorates the original marathon of Greek history and is thus considered the granddaddy of all marathons. “It’s supposed to be the hardest major marathon in the world,” Lewis says, explaining that the course from Marathon to Athens requires runners to traverse a steep mountain around the 17- or 18mile mark. “After that, it’s kind of downhill, but you have to get there first, and there are some very steep sections of it. It’s not an easy marathon.” Not that there is such thing as an easy marathon, as Lewis well knows. “Marathons are a great experience,” he says, “but it’s like that saying, ‘Let me see me bleed so I’ll know that I’m alive.’ You definitely know you’re alive when you run a marathon. You’re not sure you’re gonna stay alive till the end, but you know you’re alive because you feel the pain.” Lewis has added incentive for this marathon, though: He’s running to raise money for Family Services of Davidson County, on whose board he serves. “Family Services provides a lot of benefits to the community and to the people with whom I work (as an attorney),” Lewis says. “They provide substance abuse counseling, a homeless shelter, crisis counseling, crisis assistance. ... But their budget has been cut like everything else, so I’m taking donations.”

Thomasville attorney Ed Lewis, 65, will run in Sunday’s Athens Classic Marathon to raise money for Family Services of Davidson County. He’s even given his fundraising efforts an appropriately Greek theme, with fundraising levels such as the Order of Athena ($100), the Order of Apollo ($50), and so on. After he returns from Greece, Lewis plans to give presentations about his trip to civic clubs and other groups to raise additional money for Family Services. Lewis says he began saving loose change 10 years ago to save money for this marathon. It’s significant, he says, because this year marks the 2,500th anniversary of the Battle of Marathon, a battle that became the inspiration for the first marathon. According to legend, the Athens Classic Marathon commemorates the run of the soldier Pheidippides, who ran from a battlefield in Marathon to Athens – an approximately 25-mile run – to deliver the message of Greek victory. After delivering the message, he reportedly collapsed and died. Although this will be Lewis’ first time running the Athens Classic Marathon, it will be his third trip to Greece, which he describes as “absolutely spectacular.” jtomlin@hpe.com | 888-3579

Local woman writes one, knits, too BY JIMMY TOMLIN ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

IGH POINT – When Mandy Powers borrowed a knitting book and began knitting in 2003, she never dreamed she’d one day be writing her own knitting book. But seven years later, here she is, debuting “The Red Collection: 12 Original Designs for Handknitters” this weekend. Powers, of High Point, will sign copies of the self-published book – which she also designed and did the photography for – from 1 to 3 p.m. Saturday at Common Threads Yarn Shop, located at 1415 Welborn St., Suite 102. “Even though I had never knitted before, once I learned the stitches it felt very natural to me,” Powers said. “Knitting soon became a way for me to express myself creatively.” Experienced knitters have been

YOUR COMMUNITY. YOUR NEWSPAPER.
Specifically, Debbie Stoller – author of “Stitch ’n Bitch: The Knitter’s Handbook,” the very book Powers learned to knit from as a stay-at-home mom – found one of Powers’ patterns online and asked to use it in one of her books. “It was a starstruck moment for me,” Powers said. Now comes Powers’ own book, “The Red Collection,” a book of knitting patterns for hats, mittens, mitts and wristers. “The color palate is red, black, white and gray, and the patterns are fashion-forward and suitable for all levels of knitters,” Powers said. The book sells for $20. For more information, call Common Threads at 889-8650, e-mail Powers at mandy@myzig zagstitch.com or visit her blog at www.myzigzagstitch.com. jtomlin@hpe.com | 888-3579

“My partner said I deserved a ’charge’ for going down at four hearts,” a club player told me, “but I gave myself all kinds of chances.” West cashed two spades and shifted to the jack of trumps, and South drew trumps and led a club to dummy’s queen. East took the king and returned the nine, and South took the ace and jack. When East discarded, South tried a diamond finesse with the jack, but East had the queen. Down one.
“I think the person to blame was West,” South grumbled. “If he were a gentleman, he’d hold the queen of diamonds, or the king of clubs or any three clubs.” Does South get a charge? South should lead a club to dummy’s ace at Trick Four, then draw trumps and lead a club toward the queen. South gets a fourth chance: When East takes the king, he is endplayed; he must lead a diamond from his queen or concede a ruff-sluff. If West had the king of clubs, South might lose an overtrick but could still get three club tricks and 10 tricks in all.

If you push your ideas and present what you have to offer with a little flair, you will attract the kind of attention required to reach your goals.

Your desire to please may even counteract some of the negativity going on in your life. ★★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Don’t stop believing in yourself and what you can do. Ask the one you love or the people with whom you spend most of your time to help you complete a project you are excited about. The contributions will lead to your success. ★★★★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Not everything you are told will be factual. Get a second opinion from someone with experience.

ANSWER: Some players would cringe at the idea of suppressing the five-card major, but oneheart openers will face an awkward second bid if partner responds one spade. To rebid two hearts would suggest a weaker hand and longer hearts; 1NT would be an underbid. Many experts would open 1NT. The problem has no “correct” answer. North dealer Both sides vulnerable

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.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say. But first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight, Remember that I am with you every morning noon and night. That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through. God picked me up and hugged me and He siad "I welcome you" "It's good to have you back again, you were missed while you were gone. As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on, There is so much that we can do to help our mortal man". God gave me a list of thinks, that he wished for me to do, and foremost on that list, was to watch and care for you. So when you lie in bed at night the days chores put to flight, God and I are closest to you in the middle of the night. When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years, because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears. But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain. I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned. If I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand. One thing is for certain though my life on earth is through, I'm closer to you now than ever and oh I do love you! There are rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb, but together we can do it by taking one day at a time. When you are walking down the street and you've got me on your mind; I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind. So when it is your time to go from that body to be free, remember you're not going you're coming here to me. Love, MOM Linda Brooks.
