Playground to benefit West End residents BY PAT KIMBROUGH ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – Volunteers, government and charitable grants, service organizations and other sources have helped produce something of a milestone for the West End neighborhood. West End Ministries on Wednesday will dedicate what is being billed as the only playground in the neighborhood. WEM enlisted a variety of assistance in the purchase and installation of equipment for the playground, which has been established on the ministry’s campus. It’s geared for children age 12 and younger and

should be widely used by the Boys and Girls Club, which meets on the ministry’s campus, as well as other neighborhood children. “The whole idea is that children need to be active, and we didn’t have anywhere, really, for them to get some exercise,” said Judy Mendenhall, WEM’s executive director. “The Boys and Girls Club, when they would go outside, they would either just run or play dodgeball or something like that.” The playground is being named in honor of former journalist Nick G. Maheras, who died in May and covered various aspects of the ministry during two decades with The High Point Enterprise.

Archdale City Council rezones site for facility expansion BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

ARCHDALE – The Archdale City Council last week approved a rezoning request for city-owned property. Jeff Wells, city planning director, said the rezoning was needed to make consistent zoning districts on the property of the city’s Public Works facilities, located on Old School Road. Earlier this

year, the city hired Asheborobased A&M Construction Services Inc. to renovate one of its buildings and add a equipment shelter on Old School Road. “We had our public works facility located within three separate zoning districts, and we didn’t really feel like that was necessary,” Wells said. “The property that we just acquired behind the existing facility that we anticipate using for future expansion was zoned

residential, and we had some split zoning on the rest of the property of heavy and light industrial.” The City Council voted to make all of the zoning districts light manufacturing. According to Wells, the rezoning is consistent with the city’s future land-use plan. City officials say the renovation of the Public Works facility will allow for additional space. City officials also say the building under renovation often had water leaks.

City employees also outgrew the building, Wells said. Lori Nurse, the city’s finance director, said the city of Archalde is paying A&M Construction $725,304 for the construction. City officials say the work will be completed by early 2010. “I think the contract goes into February, but I think they are looking to be finished sometime in February,” she said. dignasiak@hpe.com | 888-3657

Teens charged with brutal beating of 77-year-old KINGS MOUNTAIN – Police arrested two teens after the duo allegedly robbed a jewelry store and injured a 77-yearold man in what police describe as a brutal assault. On Thursday, police arrested Drayshawn Rayon Banner, 16, of Temple Street, in connection with the violent robbery that took place at Scott’s Jewelry in Kings Mountain Wednesday evening. He was booked in Cleveland County Jail under a $300,000 bond. A day later, police arrested Samuel Aleko Jenkins, 16, of the 100 block of Pat Court, Kings Mountain. As of Friday afternoon, his bond had not been determined, ac-

cording to Kings Mountain Police. Both were charged with felony robbery with a dangerous weapon and felony assault with a deadly weapon inflicting serious injury. Police said both teens entered the jewelry store on North Piedmont Avenue before 6 p.m. posing as customers. The duo then used a “blunt force” object from inside the store and struck the owner after items were stolen, said Kings Mountain Police Capt. Derek Johnson. “They had no weapons on them,” he said. “But they did use an available object at the jewelry store as a weapon.” The injured owner was taken to Kings Mountain Hospital and released the next day, police said. “When someone is not

showing any resistance, gives everything they have demanded and they use violence, it’s just brutality,” said Johnson. “It shows total disregard for the person.” Police said that a witness saw two teens leave the jewelry store and the information obtained helped identify them. “It went beyond the robbery,” Johnson said. “When you feel like you have to use violence after you have stolen the items, it’s brutality.” Police have seen an increase in crime involving teens. “It’s sad that we live in a world where the crimes that are being committed seem to involve younger and younger individuals,” he said. “Unfortunately, we see things like this all the time.”

Officials: 4 shot to death in Mount Airy MOUNT AIRY (AP) – Four people have been shot and killed in a North Carolina town near the Virginia border. Nursing supervisor Sue Coe at Northern Hospital of Surry County confirmed Sunday afternoon

that two people were shot and killed in Mount Airy. She said two more people were wounded and died at the hospital. Coe had no further details of the shooting, and police in Mount Airy were not immedi-

ately available for comment. WXII-TV in WinstonSalem reported that the shooting occurred around 2:30 p.m. in the town, which is about 100 miles north of Charlotte.

Authorities find gator that escaped at show and tell PANAMA CITY BEACH, Fla. (AP) – Officials believe they have found an alligator that escaped from a wildlife officer who brought the animal to his daughter’s school for show and tell. Stan Kirkland, a

spokesman for the Florida wildlife commission, says officials think the 5foot alligator is in a Panhandle pond. Authorities weren’t able to capture the gator Friday. Searchers scoured a wooded area surrounding

the school Friday afternoon after the alligator jumped out of the man’s vehicle with its mouth taped shut. Kirkland says alligators have “amazing” jumping ability and that allowed it to escape.

SUNDAY: New group expands options for children to learn theater

RALEIGH (AP) – As many as 30 farmers in southeastern North Carolina say they haven’t been paid for corn delivered to a large pork-producing company run by the daughter of former U.S. Sen. Lauch Faircloth. The News and Observer of Raleigh reported Sunday that Stewart Young, a Bladen County farmer, estimates he and his father are owed as much as $200,000 for corn they took to a Bladenboro-area buying facility that is owned by Coharie Hog Farms. “We’re not going to be able to collect,” Young said. “It’s sure going to hurt me.” Young and another farmer, Alexander Cain, said 13 farmers went to Coharie headquarters in Clinton last week to complain but they weren’t told when or whether they would be paid. Anne Faircloth, partner of Clinton-based Coharie Hog Farms, said the company is contending with two years of shrinking profits but she aims to work with the farmers. She asked them to be patient. “Like everyone else in the pork industry, Coharie has been faced with unprecedented losses,” Faircloth said in an interview Saturday.

Crews will temporarily close lanes to take pavement samples over the next two weeks from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. The state plans to start acquiring right of way in April 2010, and to start construction on the widening project in December 2011. The project is expected to take three years to complete. But the big question local residents have been asking is what the state will do about related

projects, including the realignment of Pitts School Road, which under the present design would bisect a sixth-generation farm called Barbee Farms. That is still under discussion, according to state officials. “No decisions have been made as of yet,” said Jamille Robbins, a human environment official with the N.C. Department of Transportation, in an email. “We have an internal meeting scheduled for Nov. 18 to discuss all comments received during the public hearing comment period.” State officials said Pitts School Road must be moved because it is too close to the proposed signalized interchange at Poplar Tent Road, Exit 52. The state will restrict access to Poplar Tent Road within 1,000 feet of the proposed interchange, engineers said.

The group, since its founding 33 years ago, has been devoted to providing free opportunities for local people – adult and children alike – to get on stage. An additional play each season that is exclusively for children would be financially impossible, Blevins said. In addition, to devote one of its three plays to children would reduce acting opportunities for adults, which would counter the group’s goal. “While children’s theater has an incredible place in arts education, Community Theatre is about allowing different generations to work to-

Does videotape of Smith shooting tell whole story? After reading the story on the autopsy of Courtland Smith, I wonder how does the N.C. Office of the Chief Medical Examiner know that Smith was making a suggestive move to his pocket to reach for a gun? We still don’t know whether Smith had a gun or not. I think that the truth behind this whole tragedy is on the police videotape. I wonder if the distance between Smith and the officer permitted a situation in which the officer could have Tazered Smith? I just wonder if the chief medical examiner or someone in his office has seen the video of the shooting? I am aware that the videotape has been sealed by a judge pending completion of the SBI investigation. I fully understand that law enforcement officers have to make split-second decisions when it comes to life or death circumstances. I really feel sorry for all who are involved in this tragedy. I want to say I have total respect for everyone involved in law enforcement. If anyone knows anything different about the chief medical examiner’s office procedures concerning police shootings, I would like to know if possible. STEVEN B. BLENNON High Point

Thomasville candidate wants to move city forward I want the job. As a candidate for Thomasville City Council I want to ask all of the citizens of Thomasville to think carefully before they cast their votes on Nov. 3. They should ask themselves if the candidates they are choosing to support have realistic plans for Thomasville’s future that will help us move forward. Will the new City Council focus on improving our local economy in the form of attracting new employers and thus creating jobs for our citizens? Whoever they choose they will have a two-year term to help us move forward and work to include all of our citizens in the process. I believe that by working together creatively, we can find ways to improve our local economy and make Thomasville a better place for others to envy. Imagine our city with a place for new businesses to get their start or a new children’s museum to attract visitors to our city. Imagine our own economic development

Free speech protects good and evil agendas “Practice what you preach” is a people’s terminology with technology results. “Racism” is the image of practicing what is preached as a fair and balanced commodity when it comes to liberals’, conservatives’, independents’, Christians’ and non-Christians’ true identities. This tool (racism) is the main instrument (utensil) used by people through the Bible (God’s word through Jesus) and constitution (Satan’s word through mankind) for purposely separating “Godly man” and Satan man. People of all nations continue to “practice what they preach” (unrighteousness), when we should only “preach what you practice” (righteousness). Fox News, conservative talk radio, can dish it out, but they can’t take it, they call “racism” a constitutional right (freedom of speech). Racism is not a colorblind policy, standard or principle, but it does come with an option by choice.

One of the smallest members and tools of the human body works through the mouth, out of the heart. This member has the power to practice and preach love, hate, death and life. Faith, favor, justice, honesty, freedom, war, peace, giving, stealing, healing, forgiving and unforgiving are all powers in freedom of speech. Free speech protects good and evil agendas, which at the worst part scrambles the egg (misinforms) that cannot be unscrambled; neither does a spring give both salty and fresh water at the same time. This weapon is used to save from sin as well as to damn in sin; it is the kindle for great fires, unrighteous existence, and is set on fire by Hades (hell). Every kind of beast, reptile, bird, creature of the sea can be tamed by mankind, but no man can tame this member, it is an unruly evil and full of deadly poison. Death and life are in the power of the “tongue!” Reality’s war; the terror of racism. JAMES R. RICKS JR. Trinity

Barbecue festival visit introduced area to tourists Thank you very much! I, along with five other friends recently drove down to the Triad for the Lexington Barbecue Festival. We got ready to go to the event and skies opened up and it started to rain. We drove around for a while and took in all the area had to offer. We found people friendly, courteous, polite and respectful. What a beautiful and welcome change from what we are accustomed to. We stopped at a place called the The Wet Whistle Co. in Archdale. Don’t ask me how we stumbled

upon it; it was a fluke. Once inside, we found the best coffee shop with the most exciting group of customers and staff. We sampled wines and purchased several. We sipped on hot chocolate and we each had a different cup of coffee. We were in heaven. The place is like no other. The sky cleared and we got the best directions to the festival. All of us enjoyed the day of shopping, people-watching, eating and being entertained. We had a wonderful time. However, in the end, we ended up back at the The Wet Whistle Co. and spent yet another hour and a half just chatting with the people from the area. It was reminiscent of the show “Friends.” When we left we felt like we just found the best vacation destination in the world. I just wanted to write to you and let you know that your area is just beautiful. Thank you for the gracious hospitality and for being such a wonderful destination for a vacation.

High Point Regional was there for market visitor On Oct. 19 while attending the furniture market in High Point, I experienced leg problems and contacted my family physician. He said to go, immediately, to the emergency room at the High Point hospital. Upon checking in at High Point Regional Hospital, I was looked after by no fewer than three nurses in three minutes, undressed and in a gown and on a bed with heated blankets. After blood and urine samples were taken and a Doppler exam of both legs and diagnosis of Baker’s cysts behind both knees, I was on my way! Kudos to both your wonderful hospital and staff. They are first class! How lucky we are to have this great hospital at market time. MICHAEL (M.J.) SOLDO Winter Haven, Fla

A man’s sense of self worth is seldom endangered by crow’s feet. On him people will say they convey “character.” On a woman, they convey wear. And if it’s different for women, it’s different and then some for women like you, saddled not just with the need to be beautiful, but also with 400 years of racial baggage, 400 years of ginormous Jemimahs, shrill Sapphires, ugly Aunt Esthers and angry Angelas seared into the public mind, 400 years which say you “cannot” be beautiful if your lips are too proud, or your skin too dark or you don’t take that nappy hair God gave you and make it look like the hair he gave somebody else. As you may have guessed, our subject is “Good Hair,” Chris Rock’s new documentary on the industry of African-American hair care. The comedian has called it the “blackest” movie he’s ever made. Truth is, it may

well be the blackest movie “anybody’s” ever made. That’s not to say other people would not get the jokes or the thesis: that in the search for “good OPINION hair” – i.e., hair that is straight and fine Leonard like white people’s Pitts – black women burn ■■■ their scalps with corrosive chemicals, buy thousand-dollar weaves on teachers’ salaries, and support, according to Rock, a $9 billion industry of which black folks own virtually nothing. But being black, having been inculcated with that sense of lowered worth they feed you right along with your strained peas, will enable you to nod knowingly when Rock recounts the moment one of his young daughters asked him why she doesn’t have “good hair.” It will allow you to laugh in recognition when women describe the elaborate rituals of protecting their hair once it has been straightened or weaved. It will require you to wince in pain when Rock tries to sell black hair at a weave shop (weaves are often

human hair from India) and is refused because “nobody” wants that kinky African stuff. The very notion of “good hair” springs from that same wellspring of self-denigration that offers the N-word as a fraternal greeting and once filled our newspapers with ads for skin-lightening creams. It suggests the difficulty of loving oneself when one uses as a yardstick of worth another culture’s physical standards. As in an old episode of “M-A-S-H” where a Korean boy wanted the doctors to fix his eyes and make them look “American.” But of course, there was nothing at all wrong with his eyes. And “good hair” – I preached this to my curly-haired son who grew up mystified that his hair fascinated so many people – is any hair that covers your head. Unfortunately, saying this is like shouting in a hurricane. A million media images tell us beauty looks like Paris Hilton – and “only” that. So go on, sister, do what you do. I ain’t mad at’cha. But neither am I fooled by your chemicals and weaves. I am your brother, your father, your husband and your son.

YOUR COMMUNITY. YOUR NEWSPAPER.

I’ve seen you in church with big hats on, giving children the evil eye. And at the jail on visiting day, shoring up that wayward man. And at the bus stop in the rain on your way to work. And at the dining table with pen and paper, working miracles of money. When I was a baby, you nursed me, when we were children, I chased you through the house; when we were dating, I missed half the movie, stealing sugar from you. I saw you born; I took you to your prom; I glowed with pride when you went off to school. I have married you and buried you. I love your smile. A million times, you took my breath away. You are the rock and salvation of our people, the faith that remains when all hope is gone. So if it’s about the need to be beautiful, maybe it’s time somebody told you: You already are. You always were. LEONARD PITTS JR., winner of the 2004 Pulitzer Prize for commentary, is a columnist for the Miami Herald. E-mail him at lpitts@ miamiherald.com.

Trinity seeks grant for park BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

RANDOLPH COUNTY – Trinity officials will seek funding to build a park on the city’s property. The Trinity City Council voted recently to apply for a $500,000 grant from the N.C. Parks and Recreation Trust Fund. If the city receives the grant, officials will match the grant, making the projected cost approximately $1 million. According to Adam Stumb, the city’s planning and zoning administrator, plans for the park are a part of the Trinity Center City Plan. The Center City

Trinity. City officials have worked with the Lawrence Group on plans for the park. “A lot of folks have

shown interest in having a park here at the property – walking trails, picnic tables, kind of passive recreation,” Stumb said. “It’s another service for the citizens of Trinity.” The park is proposed to be located on the site of Trinity City Hall’s property, which is nestled on about 30 acres off N.C. 62. The park would include an amphitheater, picnic shelters, a playground, trails and parking. The park also would preserve an old bathing rock. “There will be some nice facilities for folks,” Stumb said. As far as the chances of receiving a Parks and Rec-

reation Trust Fund grant, Stumb said the city’s chances are good because it has never applied for such a grant. “You get the most points for your first application,” Stumb said. “That doesn’t guarantee you, but you get a higher priority than say Archdale or Greensboro.” According to Stumb, the city is preparing the application for the grant and will submit it in January. Stumb said the city should know if it is an recipient of the grant by July 2010. The city would have three years to complete the project, he said.

BY DAVID NIVENS ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

GUILFORD COUNTY – Some county residents will have the opportunity next month to participate in a doorto-door neighborhood survey about rabies. The Guilford County Department of Public Health and North Carolina State University are collaborating on the project aimed at reducing animal rabies. N.C. State researchers have developed a survey to determine the public’s knowledge of rabies and the rabies pet vaccination status in Guilford County. Overall, there is a 60 percent chance that any pet can get rabies if exposed to a rabid animal because only 40 percent of pets are vaccinated, heath officials have said for years. The survey is expected to take about 15 minutes to complete and will help health officials design a low-cost animal rabies vaccination program. “If you are asked to complete the survey, please do so,” said Health Director Merle Green. “We want to design a program to meet the needs of our residents while protecting our cherished pets.” One program idea is pet licenses. Earlier this year, some county officials again looked at pet licenses as a way to increase revenues for lowcost spay and neutering programs, but no program has been endorsed. Owners would pay a fee when renewing pet rabies vaccines. The city of High Point requires licenses for dogs, as do several counties, including Pender and New Hanover. North Carolina law requires owners of dogs and cats 4 months of age and older to vaccinate their pets against rabies. dnivens@hpe.com | 888-3626

2006: Guilford County led the state with 37 confirmed cases of animal rabies. 2009: So far, nine confirmed cases have been reported. Survey information: Contact Maria B.

Conference marks anniversary of Klan-Nazi clash ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

GREENSBORO – A conference focusing on the 30th anniversary of the Klan-Nazi shootings in Greensboro is planned for this week. The Truth, Justice, and Healing Conference is scheduled to begin Wednesday and continue until Saturday at various sites in Greensboro. Tuesday marks the 30th anniversary of a deadly clash between the Ku Klux Klan, the American Nazi Party and members of the Communist Workers Party, which left five people dead and 10 injured. Klan and Nazi members opened fire on labor and community organizers and others gathering for a march and rally in Greensboro’s Morningside Homes neighborhood. Several Klan members were acquitted of murder charges, while a civil case found the

Klan, the American Nazi Party and the Greensboro Police Department jointly liable for the deaths of those killed. The conference is sponsored by The Beloved Community Center of Greensboro and is scheduled to begin at 1 p.m. Wednesday at New Light Baptist Church, 1105 Willow Road. The final session starts at 1:30 p.m. on Saturday in Pfeiffer Chapel on the campus of Bennett College, and features a keynote address by former Ambassador to South Africa, James Joseph. In between, plenary sessions and workshops will be held on issues of truth and healing; labor and community organizing; immigration and migrant worker conditions; black/ brown unity; youth organizing, including high school and college students and street groups and gangs; leveraging stimulus money for jobs, equity and

wealth in poor and minority communities; and the central role of religion and spirituality in the movement for social and economic justice. In addition to the workshops, the conference will explore the feasibility of a North Carolina Truth, Justice and Reconciliation Commission. A Greensboro Truth & Reconciliation Commission spent two years investigating the incident and held public hearings to take testimony from people present at the time. The conference will end with a two-hour tribute to the Greensboro Justice Fund for its 30 years of work upholding justice in Greensboro and engaging racism in the South.

Feds: Fayetteville VA hospital worst in job satisfaction MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

Workers and patients at the Fayetteville Veterans Affairs Medical Center rate the hospital lower than their counterparts at seven other VA hospitals in North Carolina and Virginia, according to two recent government surveys. Veteran advocates, employees and patients frustrated with the VA say the surveys reflect a larger issue: The hospital has overwhelming morale problems that require major reforms. The Fayetteville hospital director says the poor marks from employees and patients are frustrating, but satisfaction is not the same as quality. In Fayetteville, home to the Army’s largest installation, the VA provides high-quality health care, he said. In the two-state region, the Fayetteville VA employees reported the lowest marks in 12 out of 13 categories in a survey measuring job satisfaction. Scores in eight of those categories were deemed statistically meaningful and significantly lower than scores at the other VA hospitals. More than 87 percent of the 850 Fayetteville em-

Storytelling festival engages imaginations MCCLTACHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

Donna Washington had her audience right where she wanted them: Quiet and captivated. Not an easy accomplishment, considering some of those attending the first Storytelling Festival on Saturday at the Cumberland County Headquarters Library were tiny tots cradled in the arms of adults. But all eyes stayed fixed on the charismatic professional storyteller as she performed a tale from her children’s book, “The Big Spooky House.� “She was excellent,� said Anastasia Vann, 44, after one of Washington’s 30-minute performances. Vann also praised the festival. “It encourages children to read and listen and be creative,� she said.

ployees – from doctors to janitors – responded to the survey. The lowest scores came when employees were asked to rate promotion opportunities, senior management, work conditions and praise. In a separate government survey, patients were asked about their satisfaction with their care. In

Forty-five percent of inpatients and 41 percent of outpatients rated the service they received as very good or excellent. Fayetteville, 45 percent of inpatients and 41 percent of outpatients rated the service they received as very good or excellent. The average in the region for the same timeframe – July 2008 to February 2009 – was 60 percent for inpatients and 52 percent for outpatients.

Shooting death of 2nd son renews father’s grief MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

Nov. 1--James Hardrick Sr. was still grieving the loss of his 17-year-old son to a shooting last December, when he got a call early Sunday. It was his nephew -with more bad news. James Demarel Hardrick II, 19, James Sr.’s secondoldest of four sons, had been shot. Twenty minutes later, as James Sr. drove to the shooting scene, a McDonald’s restaurant on

Freedom Drive, his nephew called again. “He said my son was gone,” James Sr. said Sunday evening. “My mind just went blank.” James II had gotten into a dispute with another man about 1:30 a.m., and was found shot in his car. He was pronounced dead at the scene. CharlotteMecklenburg police ask that anyone with information call 704-432-TIPS to speak with a detective. Or call Crimestoppers at 704-334-1600.

Engineer warned of rock slides during construction of I-40 ASHEVILLE (AP) – An engineer involved in building Interstate 40 through a portion of western North Carolina said more than 40 years ago that workers had problems finishing the project because of rock slides. The Asheville Citizen Times reported Sunday that the engineer said in 1968 that workers could barely finish blasting and leveling some sections before there would be another slide. Prior to the dedication of that section of interstate in 1968, the newspaper also quoted engineers from both Tennessee and North Carolina as saying slides would

probably be a major problem for many years. The latest problem occurred one week ago, when a rock slide on I-40 near the North Carolina-Tennessee line shut down all four lanes. It’s expected to keep the interstate closed in Haywood County for at least four months. Despite rain, contractors worked on Saturday, hammering boulders at the base of the slide. When the road was initially proposed, leaders from Madison County and the Asheville area had pushed for another route, one that would have sent I-40 through the French Broad River Valley in Mad-

ison, close to where U.S. 25/70 runs now. Jody Kuhne, a state engineering geologist with the N.C. Department of Transportation, said the two routes, geologically speaking, really presented no good choices. “There was always an issue of rock falls there,” said Russell Glass, 69, who was the DOT’s area geologist for years before retiring in 2001. “We used to run a 24-hour patrol there to push rocks out of the way.” In 1997, a study found 49 places along I-40 near Tennessee that were potential slide problems.

Mom wants empty nest to herself D

Dear Craving: It’s possible that when you had the surgery your daughter was afraid she would lose you, and now she’s having separation anxieties of her own. It’s time for a frank talk with her. It’s unusual for a bride to have so much free time on her hands. She should be using at least some of it to build a life of her own. Could there be a problem in her marriage?

Her husband can’t be thrilled that she’s spending so much time at your place. Or ADVICE does she lack direcDear tion? Abby What’s ■■■ going on isn’t healthy for either of you. So speak up and establish some ground rules. If you prefer that she visit only once a week, say so. Your daughter needs to “get a life,” and you are entitled to one apart from her. Dear Abby: I had a bad cold a few weeks ago, and while waiting in my doctor’s office, I occupied myself by reading one of the many magazines he keeps there for patients. It occurred to me later that the magazine I had

been holding had also been handled by countless other sick patients during the weeks it had laid there. Couldn’t those magazines be carriers of innumerable germs that could infect visiting patients? Is it possible that providing reading material in hospitals or doctors’ waiting rooms could actually be an unhealthy practice? – Germ Theorist in Connecticut

Dear Germ Theorist: Yes, I think so. And the door handles, elevator buttons, chart clipboard and pens could also be loaded with germs. That’s why it’s a good idea to always carry disinfectant gel or wipes with you. P.S. If a valet takes your car or the keys – or hands you change ... oh, Lord, I’m beginning to sound like Howard Hughes.

Dear Abby: What is the proper title for your mother’s third husband? I have looked everywhere and can’t find an answer. I know that her second husband is my stepfather, but I am curious what the third one is called. – Name Dropper in Alabama

Dear Name Dropper: Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary defines the “stepfather” as “the husband of one’s mother when distinct from one’s natural or legal father.” He could also be referred to as your mother’s husband, or simply by his given name. DEAR ABBY is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

ear Abby: I have a 19-year-old daughter, “Caitlin,” whom I love very much. Despite a few rocky periods, we have a great relationship. Caitlin moved in with her fiance shortly after she turned 18, and they were married a few months ago. After she left, I went through an “empty nest” period because it was the first time I was alone in 18 years. When my daughter started coming to visit once a week, I was thrilled. It was sad when she had to leave, but I looked forward to “our days.” Then I had to have surgery, and Caitlin came to take care of me. I have since recovered, but now – two months later – she’s still visiting every day. She sits around watching TV and wants me to sit with her. I love spending time with my daughter, but frankly, I need a break! I have tried “hinting” that she has her own house, pets and husband, and it would be fine if she didn’t visit every day. It falls on deaf ears. I don’t want to hurt Caitlin’s feelings, but I got used to being alone, and I miss it sometimes. How can I get her to stop coming over so often without making her think I don’t want her? – Craving Some Solitude in Arkansas

ne of the many opportunities for firefighters to talk with people comes at the grocery store or at restaurants. People often stop and tell a joke or ask what station we’re from. There are a variety of questions about why we’re at the store instead of the station FIREHOUSE or who is answerCHAT ing calls while Lee we’re at Knight the store. ■■■These are legitimate questions. The best way to begin answering them is to talk about our work schedule. A firefighter’s schedule is very different from the typical job. When on duty, firefighters work a 24-hour shift. Our shift begins at 8 a.m. and ends at 8 a.m. the following day. Most people are surprised that we work 24-hour shifts. Each station is different, but most prepare two meals, which the firefighters are responsible for purchasing and cooking. They also have the option of eating at a restaurant that’s located in their first response area. Firefighters are allowed a trip to the grocery store during their shift to pick up necessary items for the day. They are required to stop at a grocery store in their first response area and be available to answer calls. That’s why you may see a firefighter drop a loaf of bread and leave the grocery cart in the aisle. Firefighters are responsible for answering calls while eating, whether in the station or at a restaurant. It’s not uncommon to receive a call just as you sit down to a meal and return later to something that only resembles food. We understand that eating a cold meal – or one reheated in the microwave – is part of the job. Firefighters appreciate the opportunity to shop for food or eat at a restaurant but also understand that service to our community is our most important responsibility. Be assured that firefighters are always ready to respond wherever we’re located. If you see the firefighters out, take a moment to say hi, and I’m sure they will be happy to answer any questions you have. 24/7/365: You call; we respond.

Is my sore throat a strep throat? Dear Dr. Donohue: What makes a strep throat something special? Is it more serious than other sore throats? How do you tell if it is strep throat? – L.W. Almost half of all sore throats are caused by viruses. Treating those sore throats with antibiotics does no good but plenty of harm. It wastes money and contributes to the rise of resistant bacteria. Viral sore throats don’t usually raise body temperature above 101 F (38 C). They make people feel bad, but not so bad that they cannot swallow. Reddened eyes point to a viral infection, and cough is common with such an infection. Simple treatments get a person through a viral sore throat: warm tea with honey to soothe the throat, and Tylenol for pain. Strep throat demands attention. Antibiotics cure strep throats, lessen the number of sick days, prevent spread and, most importantly, avert rheumatic fever. Strep throats have a sudden onset and make it quite difficult to swallow anything. Neck nodes enlarge and are tender. Fever usually is higher than it is with a viral sore throat. Headaches are common, but a cough is uncommon. Quick office tests often can detect a strep throat. If they can’t, the doctor sends a throat swab for culture of the strep germ. Penicillin is the treatment. Rheumatic fever deserves a few words. Although it isn’t seen as

often as it once was, it is still with us and it still causes great trouble. It’s a conseHEALTH quence of an untreatDr. Paul ed strep Donohue throat. It at■■■ tacks heart valves and leaves them permanently deformed. It also can cause temporary joint swelling and pain; a red rash; small, painless beneath-the-skin bumps called nodules; and uncontrollable movements of the arms and legs. All of these resolve. Admittedly, rheumatic fever happens only to a small percentage of untreated strep throat patients, but the heart consequences are so great that treatment is extremely important. Some people call every sore throat a strep throat; those people are wrong. Dear Dr. Donohue: With all the talk about hand-washing to avoid the flu, how about alcohol wipes? Do they do a better job than soap and water? I like them because of their convenience. You don’t have to run to a restroom for a sink. – J.K. Alcohol wipes are convenient. They do a great job of elimination germs that cling to the hands and fingers. The answer is: Definitely, use them. Soap and water also do an excellent job. The water used for cleaning the hands doesn’t have to be hot. Tepid water is just

as good, and prevents the hands from drying out from overheated water. The washing time should be 20 seconds or longer, the time it takes to sing the first verse of the “Happy Birthday” song twice. Dry the hands with a disposable towel, or let them air dry. Which of the two is better? That’s a tough call. You’ll get protection from either. Dear Dr. Donohue: I have always had 15 pounds of unwanted weight. My friend tells me that the reason I can’t lose it is the fact that I drink three to five Diet Cokes a day. I drink them to keep from gaining weight. I am very active and walk every day at a fast pace. The Cokes are always my first drink after the walk. Can they make you gain weight? – S.A. Diet drinks have no calories. It’s impossible to gain weight without taking in more calories than usual. However, one study has implicated diet drinks as a factor in weight gain. For me, the argument is less than persuasive. It says that although the drinks don’t add weight by themselves, they encourage the drinker to overindulge in other, calorie-dense foods. The sweet tastes of the artificially sweetened drinks make a person crave more calories. I find this hard to believe. Five diet drinks a day is a bit overboard. Because they are acidic, diet drinks can erode tooth enamel.

World War II veterans received heroes’ welcome Wednesday when they arrived at airport from Washington on Triad Flight of Honor.

A community says, ‘Thanks’ G

REENSBORO – He looked to be in his early 80s. I couldn’t tell you his name. I was too busy reading his face to read his name tag. Amid a sea of red, white and blue, star-spangled, American flag-waving well-wishers, he worked the crowd like a politician – smiling, shaking hands, accepting hugs, and speaking a kind word or two to every person lining the concourse at Piedmont Triad InterSLICES national Airport. OF LIFE As he approached our family, I stuck out my Jimmy hand, and he shook it Tomlin firmly. He looked me in ■■■ the eye and said, “Thank y’all for coming.” I assured him we were happy to come – I considered it our privilege to be there – and I shook my head in disbelief as he continued down the concourse, shaking more hands and expressing more gratitude. I mean, why thank us? We hadn’t done anything.

The next Triad Flight of Honor will take place April 17, and another flight is planned for May 22. For more information, visit www. wxii12.com/triadflightofhonor.

The occasion was Wednesday’s return of the Triad Flight of Honor, which had flown some 100 area World War II veterans to Washington, D.C., for the day to see the national World War II Memorial, most of them for the first time. Organizers had asked people to come to the airport Wednesday evening and honor the returning veterans with a hero’s welcome, so we obliged. Becky and I both have a heart for veterans, and we figured we could turn the evening into a valuable history lesson for our daughters. So sure, we went. “Thank y’all for coming,” he said. Yeah, well, all we did was drive to the airport – scarcely 10 minutes from our home – and wait about half an hour in

the concourse until the Flight of Honor landed. Then we spent the next hour or so cheering, waving flags and thanking the veterans for their service to our country as they came down the concourse. We returned to our car, paid two bucks for parking and went home. The girls got in bed 90 minutes later than usual. That’s what we did. Not much of a sacrifice, huh? Certainly not when you compare it to the sacrifices those veterans made more than six decades ago. I don’t know that kind man’s story – I wish I did – but I suspect it wasn’t all that different from the stories of so many World War II veterans. Some abandoned careers, while others put their education on hold. They all left behind their families. And for what? To fight for our freedom. That freedom came at a price, and these are the guys who paid it. And this man wants to thank me? “Thank y’all for coming,” he said. No, sir. I believe we’re the ones who should be telling you, “Thank y’all for going.” jtomlin@hpe.com | 888-3579

Researchers at Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center have received a $2.9 million federal grant to study smokeless tobacco use among college students and plan to follow them over three years of school. Mark Wolfson, Ph.D., and Dr. John Spangler were awarded the grant in September. The grant is funded by the National Cancer Institute of the National Institutes of Health. The goal of this study is to better understand smokeless tobacco use among college students and to measure their use over their college careers. The researchers will recruit a cohort of smokeless tobacco users and non-users from 10 colleges in North Carolina and follow this cohort using web-based surveys beginning in their freshman year. They will be looking at patterns of use of different products, including chewing tobacco, dry and moist snuff (including snus and other flavored products), and alternative tobacco products such as lozenges, strips, orbs and sticks. “This is pretty innovative and was quite competitive, as only five other smokeless tobacco grants were funded nationally,” Spangler said. “There’s just not a lot of data about smokeless tobacco use in college students. Most studies look at smoking. No one has followed college students over time to see how their smokeless tobacco use changes over time.”

“I know you won’t talk about your former occupation,” I said to Cy the Cynic, “but I bet you were a hard worker.” Cy won’t give a straight answer to questions about his job. “I always went the extra mile,” the Cynic said solemnly. “The problem was that my boss found me and brought me back.” Cy had to go an extra mile to make today’s game. East won the first spade with the queen and led a trump. Cy took the ace and could have conceded a spade, preparing a crossruff, but he led a diamond to dummy and a trump to his jack. West took the queen and led another spade, and East won and led a third trump. West threw a diamond.

TROUBLE Cy was in trouble – he had two losing spades and only one trump left in dummy – but he persevered by cashing two more diamonds. If West threw a club, Cy would take the A-K and ruff a club, making dummy’s last club good. When West threw a spade, Cy led a club to the ace and ruffed a spade in dummy to set up his fourth spade. Making four!

DAILY QUESTION You hold: S 7 5 H 10 9 8 3 D A K Q C K 8 5 4. You are the dealer with neither side vulnerable. What do you say? ANSWER: Most experts would open. A case exists for a pass since most of the honors are stuck in a short suit, and the hand lacks spade length. A hand such as A K Q 7 5, K 10 9 3, 6 5, 5 4 would be more attractive to open. Though the diamonds are chunky, one club is the proper opening bid. Length, not strength, usually determines the suit to open. North dealer Neither side vulnerable

‘This Is It’ tops charts LOS ANGELES (AP) – “Michael Jackson’s This Is It” pulled in $101 million worldwide in its first five days, and distributor Sony is extending the farewell performance film beyond its planned twoweek run. The film was the No. 1 Halloween thriller domestically with a $21.3 million opening weekend, according to studio estimates Sunday.

The previous weekend’s No. 1 movie, Paramount’s low-budget horror sensation “Paranormal Activity,” slipped to No. 2 with $16.5 million, lifting its total to $84.8 million. “This Is It” raised its domestic total to $32.5 million. The movie pulled in $68.5 million overseas, including $10.4 million in Japan.

Monday, Nov. 2, 2009 CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Nelly, 35; Reginald “Fieldy” Arvizu, 40; k.d.Lang, 48; Stefanie Powers, 67 HAPPY BIRTHDAY: It’s up to you to make your move and to do so without expecting anything from anyone. Taking responsibility by contributing solutions to whatever problems you face will speak volumes about who you are and what you have to offer. It’s time for new beginnings – rid yourself of the burdens you’ve been carrying around for so long. Your numbers are 5, 12, 17, 20, 24, 30, 42 ARIES (March 21-April 19): A challenge will strike an emotional chord. Chill out and let things come to you. Aggressive action will bring responses that are difficult to deal with and could compromise a partnership you are involved in. ★★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You will face ultimatums that can lead to relationship problems. Before getting upset or acting stubborn, consider the consequences. You may want to back down and compromise before you lose out altogether. ★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): A relationship that interests you will be heightened by an opportunity to work with this person. Don’t hold back; it’s your playful actions that will intrigue and entice someone to take part in your game plan. ★★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): Embrace change and take advantage of any opportunity that comes your way, even if you are shy or reluctant to venture down new avenues. There is a surprise that awaits you if you dare to try something new. Don’t let someone else’s responsibilities become your own. ★★★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Don’t get caught up in the moment and overreact to something that is taken out of context. You have to be less opinionated and more perceptive if you want to make the right choices and avoid emotional pitfalls. ★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Your communication skills will make an impression, opening up opportunities to experience different cultures, travel to distant lands or to organize a service for those less fortunate. Speak up and you will get what you are asking for. ★★★★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You can take care of personal business that will ensure greater security and financial benefits. People with similar interests will enable you to get something up and running that you’ve been wanting to do for some time. ★★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Don’t give in to emotional blackmail. You are likely to infuriate someone trying to take advantage of you. Set your rules and stick to them, no matter what. A partnership may have to be dissolved in order for you to move forward. ★★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): A little will go a long way, so don’t go overboard financially, emotionally or physically. You will be able to take advantage of an unusual, interesting scenario that brings together what you’ve learned with what you are currently experiencing. ★★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): A pending personal issue can now be put to rest. A financial change is apparent but only if you are willing to do things a little differently. Walk away from a partnership that isn’t working for you. ★★★★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): If someone is costing you too much, perhaps you should revisit your relationship. Emotions can lead you down the wrong path. If things aren’t equal, you may want to move on to someone willing to give as much as you. ★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): You can tie up loose ends and plant some seeds that will lead to a financial gain, contract or settlement. Don’t let a long time friend or partner hold you back because of a difference of opinion. Love is in the stars. Change is upon you. ★★★★ ONE STAR: It’s best to avoid conflicts; work behind the scenes or read a good book. Two stars: You can accomplish but don’t rely on others for help. Three stars: If you focus, you will reach your goals. Four stars: You can pretty much do as you please, a good time to start new projects. Five stars: Nothing can stop you now. Go for the gold.

McMurray takes wild Talladega BY GREER SMITH ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER

TALLADEGA, Ala. – Jimmie Johnson’s run of good luck in a quest for a fourth straight Cup title continued Sunday as usually snake-bitten Jamie McMurray finally found some. Thanks to a huge turn of events that included two spectacular wrecks and a number of cars running out of gas, Johnson overcame a failed strategy of running at the McMurray back of the lead draft to go from 21st to sixth in the last seven laps in another wacky finish at Talladega Speedway. Johnson padded his points lead to a full race while teammates and points challengers Jeff Gordon and Mark Martin ran into trouble. “From where we were with just a few laps to go, this feels like a win,” Johnson said. While Johnson was salvaging what for the longest time looked to be a disastrous day, McMurray kept his Ford in front over the last 11 laps as the race went into a three-lap overtime to taste victory for the third time in his 255race career and the first time in 87 races as he faces losing his ride with Roush Fenway Racing at the end of the season. Johnson ran around 30th nearly the whole way before trying to make a move toward the front just past the 170-lap mark of what turned into a 191-lap race. He was in 29th before the craziness started on lap 184 when Ryan Newman flipped on the backstretch, landed upside down onto Kevin Harvick’s hood, slid into the outside wall going into turn three, slid down the banking and turned over before coming to rest on the roof. Newman escaped unin-

fuel. Johnson advanced to 11th on the restart on lap 190 and that put him in position to narrowly escape more misfortune when Brad Keselowski spun Kurt Busch – triggering a 13-car wreck coming to the white flag in which Martin turned over and also collected Gordon. Gordon wound up 20th and Martin 28th, putting Johnson 184 points ahead of Martin and 192 in front of Gordon. “Our strategy to hold back was a disaster,” Johnson said. “When I decided I

needed to go, I just couldn’t go anywhere. Chad’s decision to pit saved us.” McMurray decided to ride for the first 100 laps before moving toward the front. Helped by pushes from teammate Matt Kenseth, he led 31 of the last 38 laps. When the caution waved for the last wreck, McMurray was guaranteed victory unless he ran out of fuel in the last lap. Car owner Jack Rush said he was so nervous that McMurray would run out of fuel that he looked “for a place to throw up.”

“Luckily, I had Matt behind me,” McMurray said. “I had a lot of faith that he wouldn’t hang me out until one or two to go. He had numerous times that he could have shot past me, and he elected to stay with me.” Kenseth wasn’t a factor in the overtime after running out of fuel coming to the last restart. Kasey Kahne finished second in a Dodge, with Joey Logano third, Greg Biffle fourth and Jeff Burton fifth. Bobby Labonte was 10th. gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3519

back DeAngelo Williams said. Arizona’s Kurt Warner was intercepted five times and fumbled the ball away once. Julius Peppers returned one of the picks 13 yards for a touchdown. Coincidentally, Delhomme was intercepted five times and fumbled once in the Panthers’ 33-13 home playoff loss to the Cardinals. He had a league-worst 13 picks this season entering Sunday. Delhomme played a series after he was hurt, then was taken to a hospital for tests. He said after returning to the stadium that nothing serious was discovered. He described the injury as a “chest contusion.”

After throwing three interceptions in last Sunday’s home loss to Buffalo, Delhomme had to wait until Wednesday to find out if he still was the starter. Delhomme was 7 of 14 for 90 yards, including the first scoring pass to a wide receiver for the Panthers this season. Williams rushed for 158 yards on 23 carries, including a 77-yarder to set up Stewart’s 10-yard touchdown run that put Carolina (3-4) up for good 14-7 on the first play of the second quarter. Stewart gained 87 yards in 17 attempts. Warner completed 27 of 46 passes for 242 yards and two touchdowns.

TOP SCORES

tarting today, workers will begin renovations on half of Talladega Superspeedway’s frontstretch grandstands that will include seats five inches wider and wider aisles. They also announced a decrease in some ticket prices for next year. Even with the decrease in number of seats, the track won’t be in danger of a sellout next spring if they move the same number of tickets as they did for Sunday’s AMP 500. Large stretches of the upper grandstand went empty, and the backstretch stand was no more than a quarter full. Given the product on the track, Sunday’s

patrons don’t have a burning reason to come back after what was not a red-letter event for NASCAR. First, NASCAR president Mike Helton, like an overbearing parent, told drivers not to push in the turns, cutting down on the ability to pass. Then came a disjointed race which included some tingling three-abreast racing, a lot of laps with drivers running single-file, the obligatory scary crashes with cars flipping and an anti-climatic finish. On top of that, Jimmie Johnson continued to make a laugher out of the Chase for the Championship, increasing his lead to

essentially a whole race – making it harder to sell tickets and draw viewers for the three remaining races. The action on the track was typically restrictor-plate, with drivers packed together so tight that wrecks are inevitable. Johnson offered the only solution. “The only way we avoid this, if anybody wants to avoid this type of racing, is to eliminate the restrictor plates. That means get the tractors out and knock down the banking,” Johnson said.

Serena Williams said she didn’t arrive at the Sony Ericsson Championships expecting to win. Plenty of other people did that for her. Williams bested big sister Venus again Sunday, winning 6-2, 7-6 (4) in the season-ending tournament for her third victory of the season. Williams also won Wimbledon and the Australian Open, and clinched the year-end No. 1 ranking earlier in the week. It was Serena’s fourth straight win over her sister. She also beat Venus in the round-robin stage of the Doha tournament, the Wimbledon final and the semifinals in Miami this year. She leads their headto-head record 13-10. The tournament featured the eight topranked women in the world divided into two groups, with the semifinalists decided by a round-robin stage.

easy victory over the Broncos (6-1).

GREEN BAY, Wis. – For the second time in less than a month, Brett Favre sliced up his former team and stuck it to the franchise that cast him aside as the Minnesota Vikings beat the Green Bay Packers 38-26 at Lambeau Field on Sunday. If walking out to waves of loud jeers from his former fans threw Favre off his game, it didn’t last long. Despite being jeered repeatedly by Packers fans who once cheered his every move, Favre completed 17 of 28 passes for 244 yards and four touchdowns. The Vikings (71) took a firm hold on the NFC North standings.

TITANS 30, JAGUARS 13 NASHVILLE, Tenn. – The Titans are no longer winless after a switch to Vince Young at quarterback. Chris Johnson set a franchise record by rushing for 228 yards for the Titans (1-6).

CHARGERS 24, RAIDERS 16 SAN DIEGO – LaDainian Tomlinson scored twice, the first in the wildcat, and the Chargers took their 13th straight victory against the Raiders. It’s the longest active NFL winning streak by one team over another.

Wake endures another tough finish WINSTON-SALEM – Saturday night’s 28-27 loss to No. 19 Miami provided a microcosm of Wake Forest’s season. The Demon Deacons weren’t able to come up with enough plays when it really counted and suffered their fourth loss of three points or less. This one was a little harder to take. Wake never trailed until the last 68 seconds. They outgained the Hurricanes 555-356 and built leads of 17-0 and 27-14. They also let Miami drive for a touchdown in 39 seconds to pull within 20-14 at the end of the second quarter. The Deacs muffed a punt that led to a Miami touchdown early in the fourth quarter that brought the Hurricanes within 27-21. At least three times in the fourth quarter, they were unable to hold on to what would have been interceptions that would have helped them run out the clock. Wake was whistled for a holding call with 2:40 to

go that wiped out a first down at the Miami 48 that would have put it in position to run out the clock. “The bottom line is we didn’t make enough plays down the stretch on both sides of the ball,� Wake coach Jim Grobe said. “We had opportunities to make a first down here and there. Defensively we had our hands on three or four balls going for interceptions and didn’t make them. “We’ve had seven late fourth quarter games and haven’t won our share, that’s the bottom line.� By not winning their share, the Deacs stand 4-5 and 2-3 in the ACC and are in danger of not becoming bowl eligible with Georgia

Tech, Duke and Florida State left on the schedule. Grobe expressed confidence that his squad can bounce back. “After some losses, you’ll hear some guys talking and stuff,� senior defensive end Jon Russell said. “But it wasn’t like that today because we knew that was our game to win. Miami made some great plays and we didn’t. “It’s disappointing to know that you have that ability there but you haven’t been able to do it for four quarters. I talk all the time about trying to keep guys positive. The only game we didn’t have a shot was Clemson (a 383 loss). If the ball bounced a few different ways,

we could be sitting here with a team that only has one loss. It is tough. But, we’ll try to get through it and win some games and make it to a bowl. We’re going to look back on the film and see what could have been. But we’ve got to move on.� gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3519

TV camera moved back slightly at World Series PHILADELPHIA (AP) – Alex Rodriguez can even cause cameras to be moved. A day after A-Rod’s drive to right field hit a TV camera overhanging the fence at Citizens Bank Park, Major League Baseball and the Fox network took a step to make sure it wouldn’t happen again. “As a precaution, we’ve moved the rightfield foul pole camera back slightly so that the edge of the lens is in completely line with the top of the wall,� Fox spokesman Lou D’Ermilio said Sunday before Game 4. Rodriguez originally was given a double in the fourth inning of Game 3, but after a video review was awarded a two-run homer. It was the first video review by umpires in World Series history. Umpires said after the game they had decided

in advance that balls hitting the camera would be home runs. “We tour the field during the Series whenever we go to a new ballpark and discuss specific ground rules and potential trouble areas, just like that,� crew chief Gerry Davis said. “Because we cannot control what the cameraman does with the camera, one of the specific ground rules is when the ball hits the camera: home run.� Baseball began using video review in August 2008, with the umpires consulting replays shown from a control center in New York. The reviews determine only whether possible home runs were fair or foul or cleared fences. In its first use, a home run by Rodriguez at Tampa Bay was upheld on Sept. 3, 2008. This was the first-use of technology in a postseason game.

Newman blasts NASCAR after wild Talladega ride BY GREER SMITH ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER

TALLADEGA, Ala. – Ryan Newman has implored NASCAR to find ways to keep cars on the ground ever since Carl Edwards’ car flew into the grandstand fence at the end of NASCAR’s visit to Talladega Superspeedway in May. Ironically, Newman received more impetus for his crusade when he wound up on his roof Sunday and escaped injury because his roll cage didn’t collapse in the latest edition of cars gone wild at the 2.66-mile track. He emerged from the wreckage only after his Chevrolet was righted and the roof peeled back. “It’s just a product of this racing and what NASCAR has put us into with these restrictor plates and these cars,� Newman said. “You know with the yellow (out-of-bounds) line, no bump drafting and no passing. Drivers used to be able to respect each other and race around each other. ... I guess they don’t think much of us anymore.� Newman’s tumble came after NASCAR gave drivers a stern warning about pushing or bump drafting in the turns. NASCAR promised penalties if they could not see distance between a driver’s front bumper and the car in front of it. Warnings were issued but no penalties given. “The more rules, the more NASCAR is telling us how to drive, the less we can

race and put on a show for the fans,� Newman said. “In the end there were big accidents, but we don’t need getting upside down like this. “It is a shame that not more is getting done,� Newman said. “I guess I expect NASCAR to call me. I do have an engineering degree. I would like a little respect.� For long stretches, cars ran single file before a hectic finish that included Newman’s crash and a big pileup on the next-to-last lap in which Mark Martin turned over. Newman suggested the boring stretches were a product of the no pushing edict. But, several drivers suggested that it was a product of not taking chances toward the end. “People know that they shouldn’t race yet,� Jimmie Johnson said. “They might as well ride and log some miles. I know it’s boring for everyone else, but we can breathe easier when we run single-file like that at the top. And we know that at the end we will bunch and race.� Newman also delivered a shot toward fans who might have liked Sunday’s race. “I wish NASCAR would do something,� Newman said. “It was boring for the fans. That’s not something that anybody wants to see. At least, I hope not. If they do, go home because you don’t belong here.� gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3519

Geithner: Growth is No. 1 priority

FILE | AP

Lender CIT Group Inc. filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy Sunday after bondholders wouldn’t agree to a debt-exchange offer and instead approved a restructuring strategy to reduce the company’s total debt.

CIT files for Chapter 11 protection WASHINGTON (AP) – Lender CIT Group has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, in an effort to restructure its debt while trying to keep loans flowing to the thousands of mid-sized and small businesses. CIT made the filing in New York bankruptcy court Sunday, after a debt-exchange offer to bondholders failed. CIT said in a statement that its bondholders have overwhelmingly approved a prepackaged reorganization plan which will reduce total debt by $10 billion while allowing the company to continue to do business. “The decision to proceed with our plan of reorganization will allow CIT to continue to provide funding to our small business and middle market customers, two sectors that remain vitally important to the U.S. economy,” said Jeffrey M. Peek, chairman and CEO. Peek has said he plans to step down at the end of the year.

CIT’s move will wipe out current holders of its common and preferred stock, likely meaning the U.S. government will lose the $2.3 billion it sunk into CIT last year to prop up the ailing company. The government could have lost billions more, however, had it not declined to hand over more aid to the company earlier this year. The Chapter 11 filing is one of the biggest in U.S. corporate history. CIT’s bankruptcy filing shows $71 billion in finance and leasing assets against total debt of $64.9 billion. Its collapse is the latest in a string of huge cases driven by the financial crisis over the past two years, as bailed out industry heavyweights like General Motors and Chrysler both entered bankruptcy court. CIT has been trying to fend off disaster for several months and narrowly avoided col-

lapse in July. It has struggled to find funding as sources it previously relied on, such as short-term debt, evaporated during the credit crisis. It received $4.5 billion in credit from its own lenders and bondholders last week, reportedly made a deal with Goldman Sachs to lower debt payments, and negotiated a $1 billion line of credit from billionaire investor and bondholder Carl Icahn. But the company failed to convince bondholders to support a debt-exchange offer, a step that would have trimmed at least $5.7 billion from its debt burden and given CIT more time to pay off what it owes. It is unclear what the filing will mean for the nation’s small businesses, many of which look to CIT for loans to cover expenses like buying materials at a time when other credit is hard to come by.

WASHINGTON (AP) – Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner acknowledges the federal budget deficit is too high, but that the priorities now are economic growth and job creation. Asked Warner repeatedly on NBC’s “Meet the Press” whether this means taxes will rise, Geithner avoided giving specifics. He did say President Barack Obama is committed to dealing with deficit in a way that will not add to the tax burden of people making less than $250,000 a year. The White House has not decided how to reduce the red ink, Geithner said in an interview broadcast Sunday. “Right now we’re focused on getting growth back on track,” he said. “And we’re not at the point yet where we have to decide exactly what it’s going to take.” He acknowledged that the economic recovery, while showing positive movement, has been shaky and uneven. “A lot of damage was caused by this crisis. It’s going to take some time for us to grow out of this. It could be a little choppy,” he said.

Manufacturing, unemployment data weigh in this week NEW YORK (AP) – After a forceful reminder that the third quarter is history, stock investors are now uneasy about the final months of the year. Stocks posted their biggest losses in four months Friday as traders worried that consumers won’t be able to help lift the economy. Only a day earlier, investors celebrated news that the economy grew at the fastest pace in two years in the July-September period. The Dow Jones industrial average rose 200 points Thursday only to tumble 250 on Friday.

The market’s volatility adds urgency to a flood of data this week that could help signal whether investors have been prescient or premature in the bets they’ve been placing on a rebound in the economy. Much of this week’s data on employment, manufacturing, services and home sales will provide investors with more up-to-date snapshots of the economy than last week’s numbers on the third quarter. The Federal Reserve also will weigh in after it wraps up a two-day meeting on interest rate policy. The Institute for Supply Management’s Octo-

ber index on manufacturing is expected today. Analysts will be paying particular attention to its new orders index, which is an indicator of future activity. The ISM’s index on service industries is due Wednesday. The biggest report of the week is expected to be the Labor Department’s October employment report. Unemployment stands at a 26-year high of 9.8 percent. Analysts predict unemployment will have risen for October and that it will top 10 percent by next year. Even though unemployment doesn’t tend to fall un-

til well after economic recoveries have begun, some investors are worried that layoffs and the threat of layoffs will prove so severe that they will undermine the economy’s ability to recover by keeping consumers away from stores. Jill Evans, portfolio manager of the Alpine Dynamic Dividend Fund in Purchase, N.Y., said that even as consumers hold back, some businesses like manufacturers are doing better as overseas economies recover faster. “The consumer is expected, in our opinion, to be the last thing to turn here,” she said.

As jobs vanish, factory towns slow to see stimulus WASHINGTON (AP) – Many communities hit hardest by job losses, those built around dying factories and mills, have been slowest to see relief from President Barack Obama’s stimulus plan, underscoring how hard it is for Washington policymakers to create lasting work in areas that need it most. The manufacturing industry

DILBERT

has shed hundreds of thousands of jobs during the recession as plants have closed or scaled back. Places such as the southwest Missouri city of Lamar have seen the cornerstones of their economies disappear, leaving a gap that even billions in roadwork and government aid cannot fill. Lamar began feeling the reces-

sion ahead of the rest of the country, when the furniture-maker O’Sullivan Industries closed its doors in mid-2007, immediately leaving 700 workers unemployed. That began what city manager Lynn Calton calls “a slow death.” Stores folded. A 50-year-old car dealership went under. One in 10 jobs disappeared last year.

Even Mayor Keith Divine filed for unemployment when his furniture store went out of business. He now sells carpet and mattresses and says he hasn’t seen evidence of the 640,000 jobs saved or created nationwide thanks to the $787 billion stimulus. Nationwide, only 2,500 of the 640,000 stimulus jobs announced

Friday were in the manufacturing industry. “We haven’t seen any improvements in our town,” said Gary Macklem, the mayor of Croswell, Mich., a small city in a county built on farming and factories where unemployment has hovered just below 20 percent all year. “We lost two factories and the other factories are hanging by a shoe string.”

UK: 3 big banks to sell 100s of branches LONDON (AP) – Big British banks bailed out by taxpayers in the wake of the credit crunch will have to sell off large chunks of their businesses in exchange for the billions in state aid they received during the crisis, the government said Sunday. The assets being sold

off would be reserved for new entrants to the British banking market, effectively creating three new banks over the coming years. As many as 700 branches could be sold off, according to a government official, who spoke to the AP Saturday on condition of anonymity be-

cause the moves had yet to be finalized. That figure would include all of Northern Rock’s 100 or so branches, as well as some of the Lloyds Banking Group PLC’s approximately 3,000 branches and just over 2,200 branches operated by the Royal Bank of Scotland Group PLC.

Death toll rises to 20 in Philippines

running out, skepticism is mounting that one of the most complex treaties in history can be reached in the Danish capital, as envisioned when the negotiations began two years ago. Deep divisions remain among industrial countries and the developing world on commitments by the rich countries to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and on how the developing countries can lower the upward trajectory of their own emissions.

MANILA, Philippines (AP) – A tropical storm roared toward Vietnam on Sunday after battering the Philippine capital and surrounding provinces, leaving 20 people dead in a region still soggy from three recent storms. Typhoon Mirinae weakened Sunday as it headed over the South China Sea. It was expected to strike Vietnam’s

central coast around noon today. Vietnamese Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung ordered residents to begin evacuating high-risk areas of five coastal provinces and ordered Vietnamese fishermen in the South China Sea to seek shelter immediately. The two countries are still recovering from Typhoon Ketsana, which

brought the Philippine capital, Manila, its worst flooding in 40 years and went on to kill more than 160 people in Vietnam in late September.
