To access the new Internet-based crime mapping feature available for High Point, go to www.crimemapping.com. To look up case numbers for specific incidents, go to the High Point Police Department’s “Police 2 Citizen,” or P2C, Web site, at p2c.high-point.net/main.aspx.

according to police crime analyst Lee Hunt. “We have our own internal crime-analysis software, but this an extension of it,” said Hunt. “The same data that feeds our system is feeding this, and actually we have a lot of officers that are using this just for a really quick snapshot of activity. It’s very fast.” The new site allows users to search by type of crime, within a particular date range, and

within a radius of 500 feet to two miles from a particular address. The map uses markers to represent different categories of crimes that can be clicked on for details, such as date, time and case number. To get additional information, users can run the case number through the department’s “Police 2 Citizen,” or P2C, Web site. That site, available since 2005, remains the same, allowing citizens to access and print accident and incident reports, view a daily bulletin of activity, report a non-emergency and search for incident reports at or near an address. Hunt said crime reports are generally added into the new system the day after they are reported and processed. The system updates once a day. “As new technology becomes available, we try to roll it out,” said Hunt. “We try not to be stagnant.”

HIGH POINT – A public hearing regarding the change of E. Washington Drive to its former name of Washington Street will be held at the High Point Planning and Zoning Commission meeting at 6 p.m. today. The proposal, which will go before the commission in the City Council chambers at 211 S. Hamilton St., would rename the thoroughfare Washington Street. It also would rename the portion of E. Washington Drive that runs east of the N. Hoskins Street intersection to Gordon Street. The street name change is be-

The Kilby Hotel was a focal point when Washington Street was a bustling African-American business district. to Washington Street because that name holds to a part of the area’s history.” The street name was changed to Washington Drive in the 1960s when the city adopted a street naming policy that gave streets running north and south a certain label and streets running east and west a different prefix, Shannon said. In 2008, the City Council ad-

opted the Washington Drive District Plan to provide a blueprint for the physical and economic revitalization of the historic area. The street name change is one of its implementation priorities. Further revitalization efforts include restoring the Kilby Hotel and Arcade and creating a museum and jazz club. Shannon said a public interest

meeting had been held regarding the name change, and all property owners had been notified of the request. Street numbers also would remain the same for the proposed Washington Street. The proposal will go to the City Council next. If approved, the changes would take effect March 1. phaynes@hpe.com | 888-3617

Board hopes to revise policy on bullying GUILFORD COUNTY – School district leaders will take a look tonight at proposed revisions to a 2008 bullying policy. A new state law requires all North Carolina school districts to approve bullying rules that identify potential targets, such as students who may be harassed because of their race, religion and physical appearance, as well as sexual orientation and gender identity. The Guilford County Board of Education will consider the proposal during a 6 p.m. meeting today in the administrative building at 712 N. Eugene St. in Greensboro. A monthlong public comment period on the policy would start Wednesday. A 1998 nationwide study found nearly one of every three U.S. chil-

Plan calls for reclaiming history

From the late 1890s to the mid1960s, the roadway was named Washington Street, according to city records, and was the primary commercial and business center for High Point’s African-American community. “This is part of the Washington Drive area plan adopted by City Council last year,” said Herb Shannon, a senior planner for the department. “One of the recommendations was to name it back

Police offer new way for public to track crime in the community HIGH POINT – High Point residents curious about crime in their neighborhoods have a new source of information that’s only a mouse click away. The High Point Police Department has upgraded the Internet-based resources available to the public to include a feature that allows users to search for crime around any city address, set up an alert to receive an e-mail if a crime is reported near an address and view different types of maps with information about reported crime. The new features, which can be accessed from the Web site www.crimemapping.com, have replaced another mapping resource previously offered by the department called “Crime On My Street.” That system’s vendor approached the department a year ago about the upgrade, which features newer technology,

dren in sixth through 10th grades will be bullied. Young students and boys most likely were to be affected, the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development said in the study. The district’s policy already met many of the state goals, with slight differences, by prohibiting bullying based on gender expression clothing, mannerisms and chosen names expressing gender identity. The state law allows school systems to have policies more specific than the state-mandated regulations. The school board’s policy adds political beliefs, language and marital and parental status to the list. The revised policy would allow students to report inappropriate activity anonymously, but administrators would have to confirm any harassment. Also, any district

employee would face disciplinary action for “knowingly” failing to report harassment or not taking action on a bullying report, or “knowingly” providing false information about an incident. The revised policy also directs Superintendent Mo Green to provide staff training to prevent harassment, bullying and discrimination and to “foster an atmosphere of respect and understanding for all members of the school community.” The board also will review options for the 2010-11 school calendar, which offers alternatives for spring break in March and April. School would begin Aug. 25 under all four options, but end dates range from June 7-10. One option provides seven days for winter break. Others have eight. dnivens@hpe.com | 888-3626

Massacre at Fort Hood hits Stanly County MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

After surviving two tours of duty in Iraq, Matthew Cooke became a victim of the shooting at Fort Hood in Texas on Thursday afternoon when Major Nidal Malik Hason opened fire inside the Soldier Readiness Center around 1:30 p.m., killing 13 and wounding 30 more. Cooke, 30, is a 10-year Army veteran, whose mother and stepfather, Jerry and Diane Frappier, have lived in Norwood for the past 21⁄2 years. In a phone interview with Diane Frappier at 2:30 p.m. Friday, she gave the following account of her son’s condition and the events of Thursday at Fort Hood. Matthew had gone to the Soldier

Readiness Center to have a blood workup done prior to his deployment to Afghanistan in January. He was asking for an extension considering that he had just returned from Iraq this past March and a year is the norm between deployments. When Maj. Hason opened fire, Matthew’s friend, who was standing in front of him, was shot in the head. Matthew dropped to the floor and was attempting to aid his friend when Maj. Hason came up behind him and shot him three times in the back. His friend was one of the 12 dead at the scene. En route to the hospital, the doctor onboard called and notified his father, Carl Cooke of New York, who in turn called Diane.

“The doctor told Carl that Matthew had been shot in the back three times and was bleeding profusely and put his condition as serious,” Diane said. Carl Cooke also called Matthew’s wife Sarah, who was shopping and had heard nothing of the shootings. When she went to the hospital, she was not initially allowed in for the hospital was in lockdown. Later, a police escort took her inside briefly during Matthew’s surgery, which lasted until midnight. Following his surgery, Matthew went into a coma, but when Sarah was allowed back in at 10 a.m. Friday morning, he was out of the coma. As of Friday afternoon, he remained in critical condition in ICU.

HIGH POINT – An H1N1 flu vaccination clinic will be held in High Point this week. Maxim Health Systems will have about 400 doses of the H1N1 vaccine available for individuals in priority groups classified as high-risk for complications from the H1N1 virus: pregnant women, children and young adults ages 6 months through 24 years old, people ages 25 through 64 years of age with chronic health disorders or compromised immune systems, healthcare workers, and household contacts and caregivers of children under 6 months of age. The clinic is scheduled 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Wednesday at Emerywood Baptist Church, 1300 Country Club Drive. Maxim put a clinic on in Greensboro last week but only 94 people showed up to get the vaccine. The company had 500 doses on hand. “I thought it was going to be pretty popular, but it didn’t yield the turnout I thought it would,” said Jermaine Reed of Maxim. “We’re just trying to create awareness out there.” The vaccination is covered by some health insurance plans and otherwise is available at a cost of $15 at the clinic, Reed

The Cumberland County Sheriff’s Office said 48-year-old Sean Patrick McDuffy is being extradited back to North Carolina to face two counts of first-degree murder in the 1985 deaths of 24year-old Kelly McDuffy and 20-year-old Bobbie Michelle McDuffy. Kelly and Sean McDuffy were brothers. Kelly McDuffy and Bobbie Michelle McDuffy were found dead in their Fayetteville home on Feb. 21, 1985.

Lowe’s employee John Rothrock shows one of the more popular items over the weekend – a large refrigerator.

Retail boost BY PAM HAYNES ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – The Energy Star Sales Tax Holiday may have given home appliance stores like Lowe’s on N. Main Street the jump-start they needed for holiday sales. Held for the second year in North Carolina, the event suspended sales taxes on appliances with the Energy Star seal Nov. 6-8. “It definitely was a big lift, and it put us on track for the year,” said John Rothrock, an appliance specialist with the store. Geared toward promoting energyefficient products, the holiday suspended the tax on Energy Star items

like washers, refrigerators and freezers. Large, heavy-duty refrigerators sold best at Lowe’s, according to Rothrock. And whether consumers needed a new appliance or not, the tax-free incentive was enough to get more people in the store this weekend than usual, he said. “Usually, people will plan and do their research if they are going to buy a major appliance, and we had some that did that,” he said. “But we also had several people that just walked up, found out about the sale and bought something. It was a deal they couldn’t pass up.” The event also benefitted those who were ready to get rid of their old, clunky appliances in efforts to reduce energy costs. “We sold a lot of things to people who hadn’t bought a major appliance in 20 or 25 years,” he said. He estimated the event saw more traffic and sales this year than last

year when it was first held, and the process ran more smoothly. “We were a lot more prepared than last year, and that certainly helped,” he said. “Especially since we did so well last year, we would have been hurting without the tax-free weekend this year.” Craig Fishel, a spokesman for Home Depot, said the chain also saw increased traffic with no complications. If you missed the big event, don’t fret. A similar government incentive program will be held April 22-25 and will offer rebates for Energy Star items. Dubbed by many as “Cash for Kitchen Clunkers,” the program will offer 15 percent rebates towards the purchase of new Energy Star appliances. “I would say this event could perform even better than the tax-free weekend,” Rothrock said.

THOMAS SOWELL: How can Democrats contain health care fraud? TOMORROW

Opinion Page Editor: Vince Wheeler vwheeler@hpe.com (336) 888-3517

Let history guide Obama in Afghanistan decision Some are criticizing President Obama for taking too much time on the issue of sending more troops to Afghanistan. Let’s hope that U.S. history will be our guide. On Vietnam, our military leaders and many conservatives were poised to jump on President Kennedy if he were to withdraw the advisory forces that were there. But by 1975 and our eventual withdrawal, even they understood the futility of fighting an enemy who was everywhere and at the same time nowhere. They should have learned from the failed French effort in Indochina but regrettably did not. Now, we’re focused more on Afghanistan after the foolish invasion of Iraq started by George W. Bush. Unlike his father, who got a coalition of nations willing to defend the rights of Kuwait, GWB unilaterally and arrogantly initiated the needless loss of lives and treasure in Iraq. Now with Obama, who early on saw the wisdom of focusing on al-Qaida, we face the question of what to do in that effort. Stay in Afghanistan and nation-build, or withdraw as soon as possible and go after BinLaden and al-Qaida from wherever we can. Here again, we have the opportunity to learn from history. While the Russians, who spent 10 years in Afghanistan fighting a war in vain, certainly didn’t try as hard as we are to win hearts and minds, there is a reason they call Afghanistan “the graveyard of kings.” It is logistically difficult to fight a war there, and the tribes and warlords are strange folks who don’t much care about nations and western values of democracy. As JFK said, “We must learn to

more and more of my hard-earned money and spending it stupidly, and you should be, too. The government needs to do what the rest of us do, live within its means. If we allow them to take over health care and pass cap and trade, it will mark the beginning of the end of America as we know it. Most clear thinking Americans are not concerned about the rights of terrorists that intend to destroy America. The left doesn’t care at what stage babies are mutilated to death, but they are horrified when we pour water up a terrorist’s nose. They don’t care if a terrorist cuts off an American’s head and holds it up on the Internet, but they are concerned that we make live in a world of diversity.” To do reached into our pockets to “loan” them listen to loud music. that he said, “We must first of all Water-boarding is too good for the money. recognize that we cannot remake I think this is only fair.

A few months ago, our government gave lending giant CIT just over $2 billion, that’s $2,000,000,000. On Nov. 1, the company declared bankruptcy. I think someone took the money and ran to some tropical island. So it doesn’t look like CIT will be able to repay the “loan.” The next time our government decides to bail out an industry, there should be a provision included that requires Congress to reach into their own pocket to repay the “loan” should the receiving company not be able to repay the “loan.” Since they originally

Hege makes for interesting news copy

ell, a journalist’s dream and perhaps, depending on your point of view, your worst nightmare is running for sheriff again in 2010 in Davidson County – as “a conservative, a conservative Republican.” Like him or not, like his law enforcement tactics or not, like his politics or not, you can’t deny that former Sheriff Gerald Hege is a good story – any time. Yes, some of you are tossing hissy fits because someone who pleaded guilty to two felony counts of obstruction of justice for attempting to cover up money missing from the vice narcotics unit of the Davidson County sheriff’s office is seeking election (or more properly reelection if you count the 10 years he previously served). But, while both state and federal laws prohibit Hege from carrying a gun, even if he is re-elected sheriff, none prohibit him from seeking office. Keep in mind that North Carolina’s other nationally known (for TV) sheriff, Andy Taylor, carried a firearm in very few episodes. Given some of the actions Hege took with firearms when he was sheriff, it’s probably wise if he isn’t armed. Hege seeking re-election is a good, if bizarre, political story; it’s a good human interest story considering the support he’s already drummed up among some, perhaps much, of the Davidson County constituency; and, even as cantankerous as he can be especially when newspaper reporters try to get information from him, he makes “good copy.” Meanwhile, nobody should count Hege’s chickens before they’ve hatched. Davidson County Sheriff David Grice, also a Republican, already has said he plans to run for re-election in 2010 and lots of people – in both parties – in Davidson County believe he’s been doing a competent job as the county’s top law enforcement officer. It should be interesting. And, isn’t that what the “experts” have been telling us? You’ve got to have interesting races if you want to get out the vote. ... So, weigh in.

I don’t hate anyone, including Obama, and I don’t care if he is green. He is wrong. What I do hate is what people from the “fruitcake fringe” are doing to the country. The Democrats will not be satisfied until they turn this country into a socialist state. They model themselves after their heroes Karl Marx, Saul Alinsky and Mao Zedong.

2009 election surprises give way to 2010 suspense

he 2009 election cycle is a prime example of how political trends are sometimes hard to spot when they’re approaching, hard to describe when they arrive and hard to flag when they’ve run their course. Around the country, conservatives and Republicans were jubilant about the outcome of two gubernatorial races in Virginia and New Jersey. But the story was a bit more muddled here in North Carolina. Back in the 1990s, Republican gains in legislative and congressional seats were preceded by conservative successes in municipal politics. It wasn’t just current GOP state chairman Tom Fetzer’s win for Raleigh mayor in 1993 that signified the trend. Republicans also did well in other cities. By the late 1990s, there were Republican mayors in Charlotte, Winston-Salem, Durham, and Wilmington. Greensboro’s mayor was the only one to remain Democratic throughout the period. The 2009 balloting yields a strikingly different picture. Democrat Anthony Foxx defeated Republican John Lassiter Tuesday in the race to replace Pat McCrory as mayor of Charlotte. Since McCrory was the only GOP mayor of a large N.C. city going into Tuesday, you’d think that would complete a Democratic sweep of all the top mayoral posts. But in Greensboro, of all places, the incumbent Democratic mayor Yvonne Johnson fell to Republican challenger Bill Knight, who ran on a fiscally conservative platform. Republicans also now have a majority of seats on the Greensboro City Council. North Carolinians on the right side of the political spectrum had another significant election victory to celebrate on Tuesday. In Wake County, the voters ratified the conservative takeover of the school board by giving John Tedesco the last of the four seats up for grabs this year. A majority on the board now favors getting rid of the school system’s unpopular and unsuccessful combination of forced busing, mandatory

year-round schooling and bureaucratic arrogance. So what are we to make of all this? Well, the national story is pretty clear. In most of the key contests around the country, Republicans OPINION were far more motivated to turn out than John Democrats, which is to be Hood expected after two cycles ■■■ of being walloped and nearly a year of watching left-wing government in action in Washington. These things do, indeed, go in cycles. On the other hand, economic worries and a popular backlash against Obama’s fiscal and health care policies can only put Republican candidates in a position to win close contests, by giving them a tailwind. There are no guarantees. Against that wind, the Democrats took the Charlotte mayor’s race for the first time since 1987. Their candidate ran a better campaign – as did Greensboro’s new mayor, the conservative Knight. All in all, it was an interesting and often exciting election cycle. Charlotte turned left, Greensboro turned right. But now starts the Big One – the 2010

Charlotte turned left, electing a Democrat mayor. Greensboro turned right, electing a Republican. election cycle for federal and state offices. The stakes couldn’t be higher, with redistricting to follow in 2011 and President Obama’s agenda still largely on the drawing board. Candidate filing here in North Carolina starts in February. Politics takes few vacations. JOHN HOOD is president of the John Locke Foundation and publisher of CarolinaJournal.com.

Iran accuses detained hikers of espionage TEHRAN, Iran â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Iran accused three detained Americans of spying Monday, signaling Tehran intends to put them on trial. It drew a sharp U.S. response that the charges are baseless because the hikers strayed across the border from Iraq. The announcement comes as Washington and Tehran are deadlocked in negotiations over Iranâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nuclear program, raising concern the three could be used as bargaining chips.

AIDS is leading cause of death for women GENEVA â&#x20AC;&#x201C; In its first study of womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s health around the globe, the World Health Organization said Monday that the AIDS virus is the leading cause of death and disease among women between the ages of 15 and 44. Unsafe sex is the leading risk factor in developing countries for these women of childbearing age, with others including lack of access to contraceptives and iron deficiency, the WHO said.

KABUL (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Afghan and international troops killed more than 130 insurgents in six days of fighting in a once-stable area of northern Afghanistan that has seen a recent spike in Taliban attacks, NATO said Monday.

The operation, which took place last week, was in the Chahar Dara district of Kunduz province against Taliban fighters who had been threatening NATO supply lines from Russia. AP

Dominos placed along the former border in front of the Brandenburg Gate are seen after falling in a symbolic act during the commemoration of the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall, in Berlin, Germany, Monday.

Thousands cheer 20 years after fall of Berlin Wall day to celebrate 20 years of unity, marking the day the wall came down. Thousands cheered as 1,000 colorfully decorated dominoes along a milelong route were toppled to symbolize the moment the wall came crashing down and the resulting fall of communist governments in Eastern Europe. It was the finale to a day of events that attracted world leaders, including former Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev.

Ohio bodies case expands overseas CLEVELAND – Authorities are investigating whether a suspected serial killer whose home and yard harbored the remains of at least 11 people is connected to any killings in places he lived while in the military, including Japan, California and the Carolinas. The FBI will investigate any leads in the case against Anthony Sowell, 50, who served in the Marines from 1978 to 1985. Sowell was stationed at various times at Parris Island, S.C.; Cherry Point; Okinawa, Japan; and Camp Pendleton, Calif. The city of East Cleveland is also reviewing three unsolved slayings.

Maj.

Awlaki, who was released from a jail in Yemen last year, writes a blog which, among other things, denounces U.S. policies as antiMuslim.

TRIAD – With Halloween’s passing and Thanksgiving quickly approaching, area Salvation Army planning for the annual Red Kettle campaign is under way. “We’re anticipating this coming season as the toughest yet,” said Capt. Tony Perez of The Salvation Army of High Point.

“We are seeing decreased donations with increased need. We have had to come up with new ways to boost contributions.” Those new opportunities include credit card machines that will be present at four of the High Point kettle locations, a first for the campaign. This allows individuals who do not carry cash to donate to the

nonprofit organization. A six-week commercial also will run at the Palladium theatres, and a partnership with Media General will allow for mobile text message donations. Viewers can text the word “DONATE” to: 82672, and their phone will receive a response that will enable them to make a donation. “Hopefully, these new

Wife’s friend is too close for husband’s comfort D

ear Abby: My wife, “Paula,” and I have a friend I’ll call “Mark.” I recently learned that before our wedding, Mark made a pass at Paula. (He was separated from his wife at the time.) Paula told him she wasn’t interested. I also found out that Paula kissed Mark while we were having some difficulties during the past couple ADVICE of years. But when Dear Mark and Abby his wife ■■■ worked things out, he told Paula the behavior had to end. When I ask my wife about these things, she’s honest and tells me what happened. I try to keep an open mind and get past it, but haven’t been able to. It doesn’t help that Mark visits Paula at her job several times a week, and she stays there socializing with him after she’s done working. I’d estimate they spend at least 10 hours a week together. I don’t like to be around them anymore because they’re always touching and poking each other. I actually counted 22 “touches” once when I was with them for a couple of hours.

I have told my wife I’m uncomfortable with their relationship, especially because of the past kissing business. She says I should stop being insecure and that they’re just friends. I feel she is choosing their friendship over our marriage. Please help me figure out what to do. – Left Out in Maine

Dear Left Out: Mark isn’t your friend. And to say that Paula is insensitive to your feelings would be an understatement. What makes you uncomfortable is their obvious physical attraction, an example of which is the fact they can’t keep their hands off each other. Because you can’t seem to get through to your wife, enlist the help of a licensed marriage counselor. Tell Paula you’re making an appointment with a therapist and invite her along. If she refuses, go without her. What’s happening is unfair to you, and you need an ally. Dear Abby: I am slightly overweight and want to lose 5 to 10 pounds. I admittedly have little self-control and always eat whatever is put in front of me. My problem is my wife continues to stock cookies, ice cream and other

goodies in the house. Even though I have asked her on many occasions to stop, she refuses to honor my requests. She says “the kids” shouldn’t have to suffer because of my lack of self-control. Abby, I’d like our kids to eat better, too. What should I do? I’d hate to split up over this issue because we have preteens and everything else is going well. – Frustrated in San Diego Dear Frustrated: The print and television media have, for some time, been filled with stories about the importance of children learning healthy eating habits and urging parents to not only stock the fridge and pantry with healthy snacks, but also to set a good example. Your wife may have missed all of this, or she may have some ulterior motive for making sure you don’t lose the weight. Should this end an otherwise good marriage? No, but please understand that if you do not draw the line, your children may also wind up paying the price.

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.

RALEIGH (AP) – Rebounding stock markets helped boost returns for North Carolina’s public employee pension funds during the third quarter. State Treasurer Janet Cowell said Monday the retirement systems recorded a 10.4 percent increase during the three months ending Sept. 30. The uptick means pension assets grew for the quarter from $60 billion to almost $66 billion. That’s still below the high of $77 billion at the end of 2007. The North Carolina Retirement Systems benefited from a 17.6 percent increase in its equity portfolio.

Running is terrific exercise BY STEVE GOLINSKI

he benefits of running are well documented. They include weight loss, increased cardiovascular strength, lowered blood pressure and cholesterol and better controlled blood sugar. There are other, less known benefits. As a runner and exercise physiologist, I have witnessed change in othersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; body shape and size, but what most people donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t realize is how running changes lives. Exercise begins to open the door for the possibilities of accomplishment, accountability and lifestyle change. As people realize the possibilities, the sky is the limit, and they are empowered. The old feel young; the sedentary become active; non-athletes become weekend warriors. Through running, mountains become molehills, and you begin to believe you can do anything. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s difficult for me to imagine who wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to experience what some call â&#x20AC;&#x153;the runnerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s high.â&#x20AC;? This â&#x20AC;&#x153;highâ&#x20AC;? brings what I consider moments of clarity and focus. For those who are starting to run, my suggestion is to concentrate on lowimpact exercise, such as walking for a year, then slowly adding short intervals of jogging, alternating with an interval of recovery. Lastly, add more time to the jog and shorten rest periods. If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re currently running, the way to remain injury free is in strength training and footwear, not avoiding running. Strength training will stabilize joints used during running. One of the best exercises for core conditioning is running; by stabilizing the spine you reduce back pain and prevent further injury. Lastly, proper footwear can realign joints and reduce ground reaction forces, preventing soft tissue injuries such as shin splints and plantar fasciitis. For more information on running, injury prevention or to be considered f sor the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lucky 13 Challenge,â&#x20AC;? in which up to 13 novice runners participate in the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s half-marathon, contact The Fitness Center at 878-6221.

GARFIELD

Gallbladder pain can happen without gallstones

ear Dr. Donohue: After six months of off-and-on abdominal pain and ultrasounds of liver, spleen, gallbladder, kidneys and lungs plus a colonoscopy and gastroscopy (all negative), I have been diagnosed with sphincter of Oddi dysfunction. My doctor wants me to have a HIDA scan with CCK. Investigating this on the Internet, I find the diagnosis and scan to be controversial. Can you give me any information? Could it be treated with diet? – E.S.

BLONDIE

B.C.

Sphincters (SFINKturs) are rings of muscle that encircle structures to keep them closed. There is a sphincter at the bottom of the esophagus, one at the outlet of the urinary bladder and another at the end of the rectum. They’re all over the place. The duct that drains bile from the gallbladder and digestive enzymes from the pancreas also has a sphincter, the sphincter of Oddi. It keeps that duct closed so that intestinal juices won’t flow into the gallbladder and pancreas. (I’ve been a doctor for 40 years, and I finally made myself look up who Oddi was. He was an Italian physician.) When a person eats a meal with fat or protein in it, the sphincter of Oddi relaxes to allow bile and pancreatic digestive enzymes to enter the small intestine to begin the digestion of food. Sphincter of Oddi dysfunction is a diagnosis

accepted by most doctors. It’s intermittent spasms of that muscle. The s p a s m s HEALTH produce pain simiDr. Paul lar to the Donohue pain of a ■■■ gallbladder attack. If spasm can be demonstrated by a HIDA (or similar) scan, then the diagnosis rests on firmer ground. It rests on truly firm ground if the pressure in the sphincter is measured and found to be high. A low-fat diet sometimes relieves sphincter of Oddi dysfunction. Sometimes nitrite medicine, the same used for angina heart pain, relaxes the sphincter. An incision of that muscle by way of a scope and accompanying instruments almost always works. CCK is cholecystokinin, a hormone that contracts the gallbladder and sends a jet of bile into the intestine. Dear Dr. Donohue: Please write about infectious arthritis. I found it in a doctor’s book, and I think I have it. Fifty-five years ago, after delivering twins, I started having big boils break out every so often, usually near my hips. They dry up after a few days. I have had them come up on me all these years. – R.B. I don’t want to disappoint you, but I don’t be-

lieve you have infectious arthritis, a joint infection that causes swelling, redness, warmth and pain of the affected joint. You’re describing recurrent boils, a staph infection of the skin. I can give you a program for recurring boils. A boil starts out as an infection of a hair follicle, the pore through which a hair emerges. Typically, a boil reaches a certain size and then drains and heals. Large boils are carbuncles. They present bigger troubles. People with carbuncles can have a fever and feel lousy. It has to drain in order to heal, and, if it doesn’t do so spontaneously, a doctor has to do it for you. If you are getting crop after crop of boils, you need to be on an antibiotic, one that is effective against the resistant staph germ. You should clean your skin with a disinfectant, like chlorhexidine or hexachlorophene. Change sheets, towels and washcloths daily. Cover a draining boil or carbuncle with a gauze dressing. Often you will need a doctor to examine you and to prescribe medicine that removes staph from the nose, a place of sanctuary for staph germs. DR. DONOHUE regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but he will incorporate them in his column whenever possible.

Newnan, a b o u t 38 miles southwest of Atlanta. Yarbrough said the unidentified Williams homeowner called police around 9 p.m. to report the comedian “gained entry by breaking into the home, and items were taken from the residence.”

Yarbrough said jewelry was taken, but did not have further details. Williams, whose real name is Micah S. Katt Williams, is known for his roles in the movies “Friday After Next” and “Norbit.” His comedy DVD, “Katt Williams: Pimpadelic,” was no. 8 in the nation for sales during the week of Oct. 30, according to Nielsen/ VideoScan.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) – Kenny Chesney has made the very hard work of dominating country music look easy. And Taylor Swift is paying close attention. The 19-year-old sensation has the record sales. She beat out every living artist – no matter the genre – this year with more than 3 million copies of her “Fearless” CD sold and counting (only Michael Jackson has sold more). The album remains No. 3 after 51 weeks on the charts. And she’s moving concert tickets as fast as they can print them. That might be enough to sway the more than 5,000 members of the Country Music Association, who decide who gets the trophy for entertainer of the year, the CMA’s highest honor, at the CMA Awards on Wednesday night (the broadcast will air live on ABC). She’s the youngest ever nominated for the award and the first solo female act since Faith Hill in 2000, and she’s faced a lot of questions about whether either is a limiting factor. “I think you have to do the work and put in the effort and do the touring that it takes to win entertainer of the year,” she said in an interview with The Associated Press. “And I don’t really think

Blood drive to honor late sports writer BY JIMMY TOMLIN ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

IGH POINT – A blood drive this week will honor the memory of High Point Enterprise sports writer Tom Berry, who died 10 weeks ago. The Tom Berry Memorial Blood Drive will take place Thursday afternoon at Emerywood Baptist Church. High Point resident Brad O’Brien initiated the idea of honoring Berry, and the Enterprise is working with the American Red Cross to help sponsor the drive. “I knew Tom for many years through the Enterprise sports department,” says O’Brien, a former youth swim coach at the High Point YMCA and Elks Club. “He was always a supporter of the High Point swimming community, publishing swim meet results, interviewing youth swimmers and coaches and

thought of his own father – who also died young – and came up with the idea of a blood drive in Berry’s memory.

“I lost my father to cancer in 1984,” O’Brien says. “My dad happened to be the same age as Tom. He required blood often during his treatments. It still pleases me to know that each time I give, my blood is helping make a difference to someone in need. I feel certain other area donors will share their time on Thursday and give in Tom’s honor.” Berry, 48, died Aug. 30 after battling a serious lung infection. He also was facing his second battle with cancer, having been diagnosed with leukemia. He left behind his wife, Sandy, and three daughters – Ashlyn, Rachel and Leah. The blood drive will take place from 2 to 6:30 p.m. Thursday, and the local chapter of the American Red Cross has set a goal of collecting 40 pints. Red Cross officials recommend scheduling an ap-

Second chances Nonprofit provides a sanctuary for blind horses BY JIMMY TOMLIN ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

ADISON – A nonprofit organization has a grand vision for blind horses. Flurry’s Hope, based on the 30-acre Second Chance Ranch in Madison, is a nonprofit organization that provides a sanctuary for blind horses. “We give blind horses a second chance,” says Suzanne Hennes of High Point, a member of the

Flurry’s Hope also allows the horses to be ‘adopted’ by young children. Flurry’s Hope board of directors. “Most people want these horses put down, but they don’t need to be put down – they can be just as useful as other horses.” Flurry’s Hope, which currently has 11 horses, was founded last year by Emilie Storch, who is also the founder of HorseFriends, a nonprofit therapeutic riding program. “Flurry was her first blind horse,” Hennes says, noting that Flurry was an Appaloosa, a breed of horse that is genetically more prone to blindness than other horses. “After working with Flurry, she realized that he was just as useful as any other horse.” When Flurry died, Storch founded Flurry’s Hope as a tribute to him, “because he proved to her that blind horses were still functional,” Hennes says. Storch was further inspired after a trip to Israel, during which she met a blind woman and her husband. “It was then that she realized that when people are blind, their other senses are more heightened,” Hennes explains. “And she figured if it’s true for people, it must be true for horses, as well, and she’s found that to be true.” In addition to training the blind horses for use as part of the HorseFriends program, Flurry’s Hope also allows the horses to be

Flurry, the now-deceased Appaloosa, was the inspiration for Flurry’s Hope, which is based on the 30-acre Second Chance Ranch in Madison. “Sometimes when they go blind, it kind of freaks them out a little bit at first,” she says, “but (Storch) works with them to help them adjust and learn to accept their blindness.” Flurry’s Hope currently has 11 horses under its care, some of

Did you know an estimated 17.9 million Americans have been diagnosed with diabetes and another 57 million are at risk of getting the disease? What many of these individuals may not know is that all people with diabetes – both type 1 and type 2 – are at risk for getting diabetic retinopathy, a leading cause of vision loss among adults in the United States. In fact, people with diabetes are 25 times more likely to lose their vision than those without the disease. November is Diabetes Awareness Month, during which EyeCare America is asking Americans with diabetes to know the ABCs of diabetes and eye health: A – Alert your eye doctor if you have been diagnosed with diabetes. B – Be sure to have your eyes examined regularly. C – Call (800) 272-3937 if you are 65 or older and without an ophthalmologist, to see if you qualify for a nocost dilated eye exam through EyeCare America’s Diabetes EyeCare Program. EyeCare America’s program is designed for people who are 65 are older, are U.S. citizens or legal residents, have not seen an ophthalmologist in three or more years, and do not have insurance through an HMO or the VA. People eligible for a referral through the program receive a comprehensive medical eye exam and up to one year of care at no out-ofpocket cost for any disease diagnosed during the initial exam. For a Diabetes EyeCare Program referral, call (800) 272-3937. To learn more about diabetic retinopathy, its risk factors and treatment options, visit www. eyecareamerica. org.

Tuesday, Nov. 10, 2009 CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Chris Joannou, 30; Mackenzie Phillips, 50; Sinbad, 53; Donna Fargo, 64 HAPPY BIRTHDAY: Don’t give in to what others want when it doesn’t suit your own agenda. Offer suggestions and alternatives but not your time or your money. You’ve been paving the way for others for too long and now it’s your turn to make headway. Don’t let anyone’s demands or ultimatums stand in your way. Your numbers are 3, 11, 13, 19, 23, 31, 42 ARIES (March 21-April 19): Consider how much more control you will have if you are in business for yourself. Work, money and doing your own thing will bring you the satisfaction you are looking for. It’s time you put your ideas into play. ★★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Take part in an activity that includes the young and the old but, most of all, the people you enjoy spending time with. You will learn a lot about yourself by interacting with people who are creative, outgoing and knowledgeable. ★★★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You face a no-win situation. It will be impossible to pacify the people you live or work with if you give in to the demands being made. You will make progress if you stick to the rules and focus on what needs doing. ★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): Ask your friends what they think of your current situation. Their advice will shine a light on what you must do to make things better. Times are changing and the faster you get with the program and move forward, the better off you’ll be. ★★★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Expect to have to answer questions and deal with other people’s problems. By doing so with finesse and expertise, you will win the respect of your peers. The faster you act, the better. Someone will recognize your talent. ★★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Time is money and, if you let your personal problems slow you down, you aren’t likely to make financial gains. Observe what others are doing before making a decision that could cause emotional setbacks. ★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Avoid trouble by staying out of the way and getting what’s expected of you finished. Someone in a superior position to you will be looking for a scapegoat. You aren’t likely to get a fair shake if you aren’t prepared to prove you have fulfilled your responsibilities. ★★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Promote and present what you have to offer. You are bound to get some great suggestions and support from individuals with something to offer. Your expertise and creative abilities will spark all sorts of new possibilities. ★★★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You aren’t going to get your own way, regardless of what you do or say. Family talks will not help you resolve a problem. Back off and allow everyone to follow his or her own path. Mixing business with pleasure will result in disappointment and a change of heart. ★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You can establish yourself by taking part in an industry or community event that brings you in contact with potential partners or employers. As long as you maintain control, you can turn whatever you are working on into a moneymaking venture. ★★★★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Investments, winnings, money owing, surrenders and rebates are all a possibility. Legal matters, contracts or a settlement can all be moved closer to an agreement. Do not let anyone take advantage of you. ★★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Your lack of understanding will hurt a relationship. By being accommodating, you can end up with far more. Take the time and make the effort to find solutions and satisfy everyone’s needs. ★★★

Tribune Media Services Bidding styles change like fashion, but modern experts are more active than players of bygone eras. They willingly open light, shapely hands with more trick-taking power than defensive values. In the Senior Teams at the ACBL Summer Championships, longtime champion Karen Allison opened one spade as South. She had only nine high-card points, but potential winners and two first-round controls. North’s four diamonds showed a spade fit and diamond shortness, and after Allison cue-bid four hearts, North-South sniffed about for a grand slam.

DIAMOND RUFF Allison ruffed the diamond lead in dummy and pitched hearts on the AK of clubs. When West’s queen fell, South came to the ace of hearts, ruffed a diamond in dummy, took the ace of trumps and got rid of her last diamond on the jack of clubs. Making seven. In the replay, South opened three spades, and North declined to try for slam. Allison and Mike Ledeen won the event, teaming with Lea Dupont and

the legendary Benito Garozzo.

PUBLIC NOTICE (SPA 09-010) The Department of Health and Human Services, Division of Medical Assistance hereby provides notice of its intent to amend the Medicaid State Plan for the purpose of increasing the ICF-MR provider assessment from $9.33 to $11.32 to be effective November 1, 2009. This assessment fee increase offsets the need for the previously determined 5.0 percent rate reduction for SFY 2010 or 2011. Therefore, providers were held harmless for rates effective November 1, 2009 except for those providers with individual rates above the cap limitation for their respective group/level. Any provider whose individual rate was previously above the cap limitation only received a rate adjustment for the increased assessment fee up to the cap limit of their group/level. Effective July 1, 2009, there will be no inflationary adjustment for the period July 1, 2009 through October 31, 2009. Future inflationary adjustments will be determined based on allowance of the cap limitations. The increased assessment revision effects all state and non-state owned ICF-MR facilities. A public notice will be issued for any future rates adjustments for SFY 2009 - 2010 or SFY 2010 2011. This amendment will become effective November 1, 2009. The annual estimated state fiscal impact of this change is: a. SFY 2009-2010 $(2,992,375.57) b. SFY 2010-2011 $(2,992,375.57) A copy of the proposed amendment(s) may be viewed at the county department of social services.

Heels slam FIU CHAPEL HILL (AP) — Deon Thompson scored 20 points to help No. 6 North Carolina spoil Isiah Thomas’ college coaching debut and beat Florida International 88-72 on Monday night in the 2K Sports Classic. Ed Davis added 13 points for the defending national champion Tar Heels (1-0), who had little trouble with the undersized Golden Panthers. North Carolina shot 56 percent and led by double digits much of the way to kick off its centennial season against Thomas, the Hall of Fame player and former NBA coach who took over the longstruggling program in April. His debut came on the same day his 86year-old mother, Mary, had open-heart surgery in Chicago. He spent Sunday with her, then arrived in Chapel Hill early Monday for the Golden Panthers’ shootaround at the Smith Center. He said before the game that he expected to return to Chicago on Tuesday. Marvin Roberts had 18 points for the Golden Panthers (0-1), who shot 37 percent. North Carolina led 46-30 at halftime, then pushed the margin to 25 points in the first 5 minutes of the second half to eliminate any chance of a Hollywood-esque story line for Thomas. Instead, the game offered a glimpse of what remains from the squad that rolled Michigan State in last season’s NCAA title game. While four starters are gone — including four-year star Tyler Hansbrough and fellow first-round NBA draft picks Ty Lawson and Wayne Ellington — there’s still plenty of talent and, most notably, size on a squad that showed plenty of balance against the Golden Panthers. Thompson, the top returning scorer from last season, was 7 of 11 from the field and had 10 rebounds, while frontcourtmate Davis added 11 rebounds and four blocked shots. Fifth-year senior Marcus Ginyard chipped in 12 points.

High Point University starting center (50) Cruz Daniels FILE | HPE bumps Coastal Carolina’s Joseph Harris while trying to go to the basket in action from last season. HPU coach High Point guard (4) Eugene Harris goes after a loose ball Scott Cherry is counting on Daniels to be a force under in action from last season. Harris is one of two players returning who averaged scoring in double figures last year. the basket again this season.

Panthers enter new era N

ew is the operative word for High Point University’s men’s basketball. That is to be expected, given that Scott Cherry replaced Bart Lundy as head coach after Lundy went 9-21 and a dismal 4-14 that tied for last in the Big South Conference last season. It was only his SPORTS second sub-.500 campaign in six seasons, Greer but bad enough that Smith HPU officials decided ■■■ the program needed a lift and decided to hire a coach with no previous head coaching experience. They have a coach that so far is instilling a new attitude, new philosophy and new system. All of it goes on display publicly for the first time at 7 tonight in the Millis Center as the Panthers take on Johnson and Wales in an exhibition game that sets the stage for Friday night’s season opener at home against UNC Pembroke. The new attitude and philosophy includes a more aggressive, up-tempo style of play that will emphasize more man-to-man defense instead of the zone that Lundy favored. “You don’t sit back and let the opponents dictate what you’re going to do,” said senior guard Eugene Harris, one of the three returning players Cherry expects to be in his starting lineup. “You try to dictate what the opponents are going to do. I like the style and his whole approach toward the game. And I mean everything. If there is a screen, you need to get through that screen. ... If there is a ball screen and they are trying to trap, we’re not getting trapped. It’s a different approach that we’re not going to be stopped.” Added Nick Barbour, the guard who led the team in scoring last season as a freshman: “This year everything is attack, attack, attack and get up and down the floor.” Barbour, Harris and 6-11 center Cruz Daniels, the other returner who will start, all enjoy the new style of play and philosophy. Cherry said

TONIGHT’S GAME

WHAT: Johnson & Wales at High Point University, exhibition men’s basketball WHERE: The Millis Center WHEN: 7 p.m. RADIO: 98.3 FM they most likely will be joined in the starting lineup by 6-5 redshirt freshman wing player Corey Law and junior college transfer Tehran Cox at point guard. Cherry concedes the transition in styles is a work in progress as HPU prepares for a school that it defeated 75-65 in the 2007-08 regular season. “We’ve got a large learning curve to guarding a man and not guarding an area in a 2-3 zone,” Cherry said. ”It’s been a big challenge but they’ve done a good job of zeroing in. We’ve got a long way to go. But, they are trying and doing what I ask them. We’ve got a good chance to be pretty good this year if we stay healthy.” Good enough that Cherry is setting goals of coming out of nonconference play with a winning record, then securing the school’s first Big South regular season title and Big South conference championship. HPU was picked sixth in the Big South preseason poll. “It’s not going to be easy,” Cherry said. “The Radfords, Winthrops, Ashevilles and VMIs have experienced coaches who have a lot of experienced players returning. But our guys are confident.” Daniels is the only Panther taller than 6-7. The next tallest among the starters is Law at 6-6. “We’re small, but I’m going to take what everybody sees as our weakness and use it to our advantage,” Cherry said. “We’re going to try to fly around and make plays and pressure defensively and trap and try to utilize our quickness and athleticism. We’ll have Cruz stand back there and block some shots and have everyone else pressure up on defense.” Law may be the most athletic Panther. “He can jump through the rafters,”

Cherry said. “He’s high energy. I haven’t had a day where he hasn’t been flying around. If we can get the defense going and get him in the open floor, we can get some highlight reels going.” Cherry described Cox as mainly a “setup point guard” in junior college. “But I saw tapes where he made plays and got to the basket and scored, as well as film of him in high school where he scored a lot. So I felt I was getting a point guard who could do both.” Cherry said he will rely on Barbour and Harris to carry the scoring load. Barbour averaged 14.2 points per game last season and went through a stretch late last season in which he scored at least 14 points in 12 straight games. Harris averaged 12 ppg. David Singleton, a 6-3 guard who started 30 games last year, will be used as a utility player in a variety of roles off the bench the season. Others reserves include returners David Campbell (a sophomore guard), Jourdan Morris (a junior forward), Ernest Bridges (a junior forward). Jarius Sims, a freshman guard who played at High Point Central before finishing his career at North Forsyth last year, is also expected to get playing time as a reserve. “We don’t have four guys who can get you 20 points each night,” Cherry said. “But we have a collection of guys who can step up and help us win games. Guys up front need to rebound and block out and finish. The guard needs to create plays and score in transition. And it takes a collective effort to do that. It will take all of our guys producing for us to win.” Barbour, Daniels and Harris don’t believe winning the conference is out of the question. “The mentality now is to keep getting better,” Barbour said. “If we make plays we can get there.”

Local swimmer Faith Johnson, who competes for STAR Aquatics and High Point Christian Academy, recently attended the National Select Camp at the United States Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, Colo. Johnson was selected among 30 others in the 13-14 yearold female age group across the country to attend the camp. At the camp, the swimmers trained together twice per day, attended presentations from some of the best minds in the sport, and interacted with an Olympic swimmer. The point of the camp was to teach the swimmers the skills they need to help themselves qualify for the national team while getting to know the other future members of that team. Johnson and six other members of her club team, STAR Aquatics, are currently preparing for the Junior National Championships, which will be held from Dec. 10-12 in Columbus, Ohio. Johnson was named all-state in the 50 freestyle, 100 freestyle and 200 freestyle relay swimming for the Cougars last season. She was also all-Triad Athletic Conference in the 100 backstroke, 200 IM and the 200 free relay.

HIT AND RUN

n a season with no clear-cut favorite for the Heisman Trophy, a pair of dark-horse candidates boosted their stock tremendously on Saturday. Stanford running back Toby Gerhart and Texas wide receiver/return man Jordan Shipley are unlikely to make their way to New York for the Heisman presentation in early December. But maybe they should be higher on the list of contenders. Gerhart ran wild in Saturday’s 51-42 upset of then-No. 7 Oregon. He toted 38 times for a school-record 223 yards and scored three touchdowns to spark the Cardinal. The hard-charging power back has carried 233 times for a school-record

1,217 yards (surpassing his own record of 1,136 set last season) through nine games for Stanford. He’s rushed for 16 touchdowns and averages 135.2 yards per game in helping the Cardinal (6-3, 5-2 Pac 10) become bowl eligible for the first time since 2001. And with high-profile games at USC and home to Cal and Notre Dame to close the regular season, Gerhart could turn plenty of heads nationally with three more great performances. As for Shipley, the Longhorns’ sixthyear senior has overcome several serious injuries to emerge as one of the country’s top all-purpose threats. Shipley caught 11 passes for a school-

record 273 yards in Saturday’s 35-3 rout of Central Florida. He ranks among the nation’s receiving leaders with 75 catches for 1,050 yards and six touchdowns for the Longhorns (9-0). Shipley also boasts two punt returns for touchdowns this season and excels as a blocker in the run game. Quarterback Colt McCoy figures to get the bulk of the Heisman attention at Texas. Last year’s Heisman Trophy runnerup is a worthy candidate this year. But I wouldn’t rule out Gerhart or Shipley just yet. They have a little more time to bolster their credentials.

Sanford loses playoff berth

Houston gets ready for heavy load BY BRIANA GORMAN ENTERPRISE SURHAM BUREAU

CHAPEL HILL — The most recent time North Carolina’s Ryan Houston carried the ball 37 times in a game, he was 30 pounds lighter and in high school. But in Saturday’s win over Duke, Houston was forced to carry the load for the Tar Heels when starter Shaun Draughn was lost on the first play of the game. Houston finished with a career-high 164 yards and carried the ball more times than any UNC player since 1990.

“I got tired in that game like crazy,” said Houston, who is 6-2 and 245 pounds. “You can ask [quarterback T.J. Yates]. I was just dragging in the huddle. But it’s just another conditioning factor. I just got to practice hard this week so I can be ready to carry the ball that many times.” Houston may be called upon to carry the ball even more over the next few weeks as he has become the primary running back for the Tar Heels since Draughn will miss the rest of the season with a fractured shoulder blade.

FSU turns to freshman QB TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — Heralded Florida State recruit Erik James Manuel will get his first start Saturday at Wake Forest. The redshirt freshman from Virginia Beach, Va. replaces junior quarterback Christian Ponder, who suf-

fered a season-ending dislocated shoulder in Saturday’s loss to Clemson. Ponder had thrown for 2,717 yards and 14 touchdowns this season while Emanuel has been in on only a handful of plays and one completion good for four yards.

West becomes wrong way for Memphis MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) — Memphis fired coach Tommy West on Monday, saying the school wants to do in a different direction after the season. Athletic Director R.C. Johnson said at a news conference that he had met with West earlier

Monday morning and told the coach that the university “wanted our program to go in a different direction.” He also asked West to stay through the end of the season. The firing comes after the Tigers started the season 2-7.

Members of the High Point University women’s soccer team cheer as the school’s name is mentioned on television during the announcement of the pairings for the NCAA soccer tournament. HPU, which earned an automatic bid by winning the Big South tournament, will face UNC in the first round.

HPU draws UNC in tourney SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE

HIGH POINT – After winning the 2009 Big South Championship with a 4-2 advantage on penalty kicks against Winthrop, the High Point University women’s soccer team will travel to Chapel Hill to play No. 5 North Carolina on Friday in the first round of the 2009 NCAA Women’s Soccer Championship. UNC is the defending

National Champion and a No. 1 seed in this year’s tournament. “This is a very exciting time for our program, especially to make the national tournament and play the defending national champion,” said head coach Marty Beall. “It is an honor and we are going to go out and represent High Point University at the highest level.” The Panthers began the year with a 1-10-0 non con-

ference record but went 4-4-1 in conference play, including a 3-1-0 record in the final four games heading into the Big South tournament. “I am so proud of the way this team has fought throughout this season to overcome having a new coaching staff and learning a new system and some of the struggles we had to start the season,” HPU athletics director Craig Kleilitz said.

Panthers’ Davis done for season THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CHARLOTTE — The Carolina Panthers lost perhaps their most productive defensive player Monday when tests showed weakside linebacker Thomas Davis has a torn anterior

cruciate ligament in his right knee. Davis’ season-ending injury came without getting hit in Sunday’s loss to New Orleans. He was backpedaling when his knee buckled and he crumpled to the turf as Drew Brees threw

a 17-yard pass to Pierre Thomas in the fourth quarter. A serious injury was immediately feared, and it derails Davis’ most successful season in another blow for injury-plagued Carolina (3-5).

CHAPEL HILL (AP) — A North Carolina high school is forfeiting its first-round playoff game after using an ineligible player. The North Carolina High School Athletic Association says Fayetteville Sanford will have to forfeit games in the regular season in addition to Friday’s playoff game against crosstown program Fayetteville Pine Forest. Sanford was the fourth seed in the Class 4-A East bracket, while Pine Forest gets a bye into the second round as the No. 13 seed.

Hayworth sweeps ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

CHARLOTTE – Hayworth Christian swept its varsity basketball openers against Carolina International on Monday night. Hayworth doubled International 62-31 in the boys game. Trent Haithcock led Hayworth with 32 points and nine rebounds. Josiah McClure added 16 points. In the girls game. Hayworth romped, 44-18.

COLLEGE BASEKETBALL 4D www.hpe.com TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 2009 THE HIGH POINT ENTERPRISE

Coach K eyes big things for 30th season at Duke DURHAM (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The highlight of Dukeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first preseason practice came when Nolan Smith pulled off his baggy uniform to reveal a skintight tank top and short shorts. Wearing that vintage uniform, he looked like Johnny Dawkins. And Mike Krzyzewski wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mind if the guard played like Dawkins, too. The Hall of Fame coachâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 30th season leading the Blue Devils promises to be one full of throwbacks and nostalgic reminders of those three national titles and 10 trips to the Final Four for the man who arrived from Army with a hard-to-say last name and fought through some rough early years to evolve into Coach K. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There was never a 30-year plan. Early on, there was not a five-year plan â&#x20AC;&#x201D; there was a weekly plan, a daily plan,â&#x20AC;? Krzyzewski said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve loved being here for this time, and I think Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be here for a while. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have a 32-year plan or a 34-year plan. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll catch (Joe) Paterno or (Bobby) Bowden, but thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a whole different horse to ride,â&#x20AC;? he added, referring to the octogenarian football coaches at Penn State and Florida State. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The excitement of starting here, the energy, is really good. It gets you going.â&#x20AC;? Especially with this roster. If the Atlantic Coast Conferenceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cofavorites can find some answers in the backcourt to complement the bulkiest team of Krzyzewskiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tenure, it could make a run at the same kinds of accomplishments achieved by Christian Laettner, Grant Hill and all the other stars of the coachâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s three decades on the Duke bench. A program that for years was defined by its backcourt â&#x20AC;&#x201C; think Bobby Hurley and J.J. Redick â&#x20AC;&#x201C; has changed its philosophy somewhat because only two guards return who were in last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rotation, Smith and Jon Scheyer. The 3-point shot will remain an important part of the Blue Devilsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; game, especially now that Krzyzewski plans to keep ACC preseason player of the year Kyle Singler exclusively on the perimeter. But with 6-foot-10 brothers Mason and Miles Plumlee, senior sixth-man Lance Thomas and 7-1 backup Brian Zoubek in the paint, Duke hopes to be

Kelly tries to show what he can do on defense as Findlayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Marcus Parker shoots. inserted shooting guard Elliot Williams into the starting lineup. Williams is gone, having transferred to Memphis for family reasons, but the job at the point remains Scheyerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s after a junior season in which he scored nearly 15 points per game while making a team-best 38.5 percent of his 3s. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Just learning different ways to create shots, whether it be a point guard on me, a shooting guard, just knowing how to do that,â&#x20AC;? Scheyer said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I felt comfortable last year, but I feel really comfortable this year. I know what to do. I know where guys need to be on offense.â&#x20AC;? The Blue Devils still must find someone to replace Gerald Henderson, who averaged 16.5 points before leaving school early for the NBA. But they feel confident Singler, Scheyer and Smith can pick up that scoring slack and are hoping freshman guard Andre Dawkins comes along quickly enough to provide energy and touch from the outside.

Still teaching. Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski speaks with Ryan Kelly during the first half of the Blue Devilsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; exhibition game against Findlay on Nov. 3. Kelly is among the crop of freshman that Krzyzewski will try to mold in his 30th season as Dukeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s head coach. so many of the things that became commonplace during Krzyzewskiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s three decades. The Blue Devils briefly returned to No. 1 nationally, won the ACC Tournament for the eighth time in 11 years and made it to the second weekend of the NCAA Tournament â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the first time for any of those things since Redickâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s senior season in 200506. Four players with significant starting experience are back from the team that hit its stride after a midseason switch that moved Scheyer to point guard and

able to dump the ball inside and beat teams that way, too. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a very tall team ... our biggest team since Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been here,â&#x20AC;? Krzyzewski said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But I think weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re very athletic, and I would hope that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be a very good rebounding team. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be a very different team than weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had here for a while, in the fact that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re changing how we do our offense and some of the things we do defensively to kind of match the talents of who we have.â&#x20AC;? Last year marked a revival of the Duke program that got back to doing

Stocks jump after pledge by global leaders

PERCENT RETURN CHG YTD 1YR 3YR* 5YR*

NEW YORK (AP) – The Dow Jones industrial average stormed to its highest level in more than a year Monday as a falling dollar boosted prices for commodities including gold and oil. Stocks also jumped as investors grew more confident that governments around the world will keep interest rates low to help the global economy. Energy and materials stocks led the market. The major indexes rose 2 percent and the Dow jumped 200 points for the second time in three days and reached its highest level in 13 months. News that the Group of 20 countries will keep their economic stimulus measures in place signaled to investors that rates will remain low. With U.S. rates near zero, the G-20 news lessened de-

mand for the dollar. But some analysts are questioning the stock market’s moves given the still-weak economy and warn that stocks and other investments could suffer big losses if the dollar were to turn higher. “It feels like it’s on fumes,” said Sean Simko, head of fixed income management at SEI Investments in Oaks, Pa., referring to the market’s advance. “Although fundamentals are catching up, they’re not caught up.” According to preliminary calculations, the Dow rose 203.52, or 2 percent, to 10,226.94, its highest finish since Oct. 3, 2008. The broader Standard & Poor’s 500 index rose 23.78, or 2.2 percent, to 1,093.08, its sixth straight advance. The Nasdaq composite index rose 41.62, or 2 percent, to 2,154.06.

combined research operation told The Associated Press exclusively that integrating and reorganizing the two companies’ laboratories will boost research productivity and efficiency and save money as well. New York-based Pfizer will eliminate about 35 percent of the 16 million square feet of research space it now has around the world. It will now have five key research

centers, each focused on a couple of specific disease areas, plus nine other laboratories with specialized research capabilities. Research operations in Princeton, New Jersey; two sites each in New York and North Carolina and one in the United Kingdom will be closed. Pfizer could not say how many scientists and support staff the combined company has in research and development.

Kraft’s decision to keep the terms of its previously rebuffed cash-and-stock approach effectively means a lower offer for investors in London-based Cadbury.

Oil above $79 on Gulf storm, weaker dollar NEW YORK – Oil and gasoline futures rose Monday as a tropical storm heading into the Gulf of Mexico and the U.S. dollar both weakened. By midday, benchmark crude for December delivery gained 3 percent, or $2.35, to $79.78 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange.

Foreign sales keep McDonald’s above water NEW YORK – McDonald’s Corp. said Monday monthly sales growth edged down in October in the U.S., only the third time the monthly figures hasn’t climbed in 61⁄2 years. That was offset by stronger growth globally. Shares rose nearly 1 percent in premarket trading. McDonald’s has experienced strong sales in the U.S. as consumers traded down to cheaper food options.

APEC marks 20th birthday SINGAPORE (AP) – It’s been called A Place to Enjoy Coffee, and the less charitable Aging Politicians Enjoying Cocktails. Derisive definitions of APEC, or Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum, spring from its reputation as simply a chance for 21 leaders, including the U.S. president, to meet every year and make lofty but nonbinding promises to boost trade and investment within the region. Familiar questions of APEC’s relevance promise to crop up at the forum’s annual summit Nov. 14-15, a meeting weighed down by eco-

nomic crisis and the unfulfilled goal of free trade and investment among the group’s developed members by 2010. Unfazed, some APEC members are now talking about turning the group, which marks its 20th anniversary this year, into the world’s largest free-trade area – one that is home to about 40 percent of the world’s population across four continents and generates about half of global trade. Plus, a new study indicates that APEC might actually be more effective at promoting trade than previously thought.

Advanta Corp. files for Chapter 11 NEW YORK (AP) – Small business credit card lender Advanta Corp. has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. Its shares plunged more than 70 percent in midday trading Monday, dropping 25 cents to 8 cents. Earlier in the session, the stock hit an all-time low of 7.5 cents. The filing late Sunday at U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Delaware comes five months after the company said it was shutting down its credit card lending business in a last-ditch effort to preserve cash as loan losses mounted. The Spring House, Pa., company said it has nearly $100 million in cash on hand, but that would not

be enough to meet its debt obligations over time. In its filing, the company listed total assets of $363 million and total debts of $331 million. Advanta is the holding company of Advanta Bank Corp., which is not included in the bankruptcy filing. The bankruptcy will not have any impact on Advanta Bank’s outstanding credit card balances and customer payments will continue on normal schedules, the company said. Advanta Bank is currently collecting $2.7 billion in outstanding balances from 360,000 customers. As of June, the credit card accounts were closed to new charges.

Auto supplier Lear exits bankruptcy

FILE | AP

In this March 2008 photo, a scanner passes over a book at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, Mich., where one of hundreds of librarians from all over the world was helping Google Inc.’s Book Search create digital versions of all the estimated 50 million to 100 million books in the world.

Google book deal deadline extended NEW YORK (AP) – Google says it needs until Friday to come up with a new proposal that would give it the digital rights to millions of out-of-print books. The new timetable approved Monday by a federal judge is the latest twist in a 4-year-old copyright lawsuit over Google’s ambitious book-scanning project. Google thought it had settled the dispute with U.S. authors and publishers more than a year ago.

DILBERT

But the agreement still hasn’t won court approval because of concerns that the deal would give Google too much control over the digital book market. When U.S. antitrust regulators raised objections to the agreement in September, Google decided to redo the deal. The revisions were supposed to be filed by the end of Monday – before Google received the extension. The case involves Google’s plans to scan

millions of books and make them searchable and available for purchase online. A proposed $125 million settlement would give Google digital rights to those works. But the government told a federal judge in New York that the agreement threatens to give Google the power to increase book prices and discourage competition.

SOUTHFIELD, Mich. – Auto parts maker Lear Corp. says it has emerged from bankruptcy protection with a healthier balance sheet and a backlog of new business. Lear, which makes automotive seating and electronics, says it cut its debt by $2.8 billion during its four-month stay in bankruptcy. The Southfield, Mich.based company says that despite the global automotive downturn, it has lined up $1.4 billion in new business through 2012. Lear says more of that business is outside North America and is in higher-margin electronics.

Dish Network quarterly profit falls NEW YORK – Dish Network Corp., the nation’s second largest satellite TV operator, said Monday that net income fell 12 percent in the third quarter on the back of higher costs, including a reserve related to a lawsuit by TiVo Inc. But the company also gained a surprisingly strong 241,000 net subscribers, the second consecutive increase in six quarters. Dish stepped up promotions to attract and retain subscribers, although such action hurt margins and ultimately, the bottom line. Dish has been struggling to get its footing back after its strategy of being the low-cost provider didn’t work as well as hoped when competitors began to aggressively discount as well.
