New medical facility at Wendover Avenue and Premier Drive opens Monday.

HIGH POINT – Joanna Easter, longtime executive with Showplace, has left the business after a 20-year career. Easter, who was chief operating officer, stepped down from Showplace Friday, she indicated in an e-mail to The High Point Enterprise. “I am currently moving my office and beginning to concentrate on special projects in the home furnishings industry. Two of these projects, which are in their infancy, have incredible potential and will be fun and exciting for High Point,” she indicates in the e-mail sent Wednesday. Easter, who’s been part of Showplace management since 1989, helped guide the business to become one of the three largest showroom operators at the High Point Market. Showplace also has become a key location for events and conventions between the spring and fall furniture markets. “I am so fortunate to have had these wonderful experiences thus far, and now I look forward to new consulting projects as a great way for me to redefine my contribution to the home furnishings in-

HIGH POINT – Premier Medical Plaza, a new 128,000square-foot outpatient medical facility at 4515 Premier Drive in north High Point, will open Monday. The complex, a joint venture between CHC Realty and High Point Regional Health System, is completely leased. The project involved an investment of $30 million, a spokesman for High Point Regional Health System indicates. Premier Medical Plaza is designed to house 16 physician practices covering 14 separate specialties, including primary care, urgent care and medical and surgical specialists. Other medical services at the facility will include laboratory services, a sleep lab, an ambulatory surgery center and a

full-service imaging center, including CT, mammography, ultrasound, bone densitometry, X-ray and flouroscopy. The first practices to move in include Deep River Family Medicine, Piedmont Centre Family and Sports Medicine, Cornerstone Premier Care, Premier Med Spa, Cornerstone Pediatrics at Premier, Cornerstone Internal Medicine at Premier and Cornerstone Urgent Care. Cornerstone Laboratory Services will open a phlebotomy station on the second floor and a lab and second phlebotomy station on the fourth floor of the building near the intersection of Premier and Wendover Avenue. The next wave of moves will occur in January, including the opening of satellite offices for Cornerstone specialty practices.

The receivership includes a new management company, Charlotte-based Lincoln Harris, appointed by Guilford County Superior Court Judge Lindsay Davis Jr. The receiver was appointed in August after the note and deed of trust were deemed in default. Showplace and several other High Point showroom properties were purchased four years ago by a Chicago-based private equity firm and local business partnership. An executive with Lincoln Harris said he appreciated Easter’s service and wished her well in her future endeavors. “Joanna certainly has been, unquestionably, an integral and valuable part of the successes of the Showplace assets,” said Lincoln Harris Senior Vice President David Oddo.

Lexington family gets ‘dream’ home ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

FILE | AP

In this file photo taken June 13, 2006, S.C. Gov. Mark Sanford smiles as he is joined by his wife, Jenny, after he won the Republican gubernatorial nomination in Columbia, S.C.

Popular S.C. first lady endorses governor candidate COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) – Disgraced South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford might not have much political capital these days, but his wife is using hers. Jilted first lady Jenny Sanford endorsed Republican state Rep. Nikki Haley in a letter made public Wednesday to succeed her term-limited husband in 2011. Mark Sanford has long complimented Haley for her efforts to make the Legislature more accountable, including by forcing more roll call votes. Haley’s Internet home page once displayed his photo, but that disappeared after Sanford skipped the state in June and returned to confess a

yearlong affair with an Argentine woman. J e n n y Sanford’s letter supportHaley ing Haley could help a campaign that finished the third quarter with $273,061 in cash on hand – the least in a five-way GOP primary in June. Jenny Sanford was a former Wall Street executive, has ties to wealthy donors and a reputation for running her husband’s political campaigns. It “gives her some credibility when Jenny Sanford says ‘I’m supporting her,”’ said Danielle Vinson, a Fur-

man University political scientist. “We’re not used to first ladies just openly endorsing people and when they do, it’s news. That brings a little attention, at least for a while.” She has “proven to be politically savvy when it comes to helping candidates get elected,” College of Charleston political scientist Kendra Stewart said. “And right now having Jenny Sanford’s endorsement is certainly more valuable than having the endorsement of her husband.” Sanford mentions her husband once in the letter, saying she was “proud of the work Mark and his administration have done over almost seven years

now.” But she also alludes to her current circumstances. “But our family is resilient, and we will be fine,” she wrote. While the state GOP and Democratic Party are both run by women, the state has had the fewest women in the country elected to the Statehouse and no women are holding statewide office. The first lady also has launched an Internet site filled with family photos. Its home page says: “Mrs. Sanford is enjoying spending more time in her most important role as mother of her four sons Marshall, Landon, Bolton and Blake and is separated from her husband.”

ROACH

Attorney argues court didn’t consider state evidence misbehavior, slamming her head on a hard surface. Middleton argued that Hailey had “acute” purple bruises on her forehead and contusions of the scalp that were inflicted “within a few minutes to an hour or

two” of her death. “The evidence, both direct and circumstantial, supported a reasonable inference that (Roach) assaulted Hailey prior to lunch on 9 November 2005, and that Hailey died within two hours as a result of

the assault,” she wrote. “The Court of Appeals erroneously weighed the evidence and resolved the evidence in the light most favorable to the defendant.”

LEXINGTON – A down-ontheir-luck Lexington family will get the home of their dreams next week, courtesy of ABC’s popular “Extreme Makeover: Home Edition.” Ty Pennington, the show’s enthusiastic host, shared the news Wednesday with the Creasey family: William and Tricia, and their three children – Brittany, 12, and Makenzie and Makayla, both 5. Tricia Creasey is a seventh-grade teacher who is battling Stage 4 cancer, while her husband struggles to keep their home livable for their family. She was diagnosed with colon cancer three years ago, but refused to stop teaching while undergoing the chemotherapy and major surgery her treatment required. This past May, her cancer returned and spread to her lymph nodes. To prevent the cancer from spreading any further, she receives weekly chemo treatments that cost the family $1,400 a month after insurance. The Creaseys bought their home on Allred Road as a fixer-upper, but the necessary repairs and renovations have taken a back seat to Tricia’s medical care. Numerous structural problems – including holes in the floor, walls and roof where ani-

mals can get in, cracks in the foundation, lack of insulation, and extensive water damage from a leaking roof – create additional, everyday obstacles and hazards for the family. In addition, the house has only one bathroom, which Tricia must often occupy for hours a time to take care of medical necessities. That’s where “Extreme Makeover” comes into play. Pennington and his team of designers – Ed Sanders, Paul DiMeo and Tracy Hutson – will work with local building contractor Jason Hedrick of Hedrick Creative Building and hundreds of volunteers to build a dream home for the family. Building will begin today while the Creasey family is whisked away to Walt Disney World. The new home will be revealed to the family Tuesday. Hedrick, owner of Hedrick Creative Building, expressed confidence in his team’s ability to complete the project on time. “This project is definitely a challenge, completely building a home in just 106 hours, but with the involvement of my community, I’m looking forward to building a dream for a family,” he said.

School officials nix cashfor-grades GOLDSBORO (AP) – A North Carolina middle school’s cash-for-grades fundraiser has come to an abrupt end, school officials said Wednesday. Wayne County school administrators halted the plan at Rosewood Middle School in Goldsboro that would have allowed students to get 20 test points in exchange for a $20 donation, the News & Observer of Raleigh reported. The district said in a statement that no extra credit will be awarded and all donations will be returned. Rosewood’s principal Susie Shepherd had rejected the suggestion that extra points on two tests could make a difference in a final grade. She approved the idea after a parent advisory council presented it as a way to raise money. “Last year they did chocolates and it didn’t generate anything,” Shepherd said. Students could have added 10 extra points to each of two tests of their choosing. The extra points could have taken take a student from a “B” to an “A” on a test or from a failing grade to a passing grade. The funds were supposed to improve technology for Rosewood, including digital cameras for the computer lab and a high-tech blackboard. Officials at the state Department of Public Instruction said exchanging grades for money teaches children the wrong lessons. The department’s chief academic officer, Rebecca Garland, told the News & Observer she understands that schools are struggling during the recession but added that, “We’re teaching kids something that if they were to do it later, they could get in trouble for.” Garland said offering students test credit in exchange for school supplies is a long standing practice at some schools. “I’ve never actually heard of being able to purchase grades before,” she said. Parents need to have a true picture of how their student is performing in class, Garland said.

In a Monday, July 21, 2008 file photo, Blackwater Worldwide’s headquarters is shown in Moyock. Former top executives at Blackwater Worldwide say the U.S. security contractor sent about $1 million to its Iraq office with the intention of paying off officials in the country who were angry about the fatal shootings of 17 civilians by Blackwater employees.

Report: Blackwater OK’d $1 million plan to pay off Iraqis BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Former top executives at Blackwater Worldwide say the U.S. security contractor sent about $1 million to its Iraq office with the intention of paying off officials in the country who were angry about the fatal shootings of 17 civilians by Blackwater employees, The New York Times reported Tuesday. Four former executives described the plan under the condition of anonymity, the newspaper said. Iraqis had long complained about ground operations by the North Carolina-based company, now known as Xe Corp. Then the shooting by Blackwater guards in Baghdad’s Nisoor Square in September 2007 left 17 civilians dead, further strained relations between Baghdad and Washington and led U.S. prosecutors to bring charges against the Blackwater contractors involved. The State Department has since turned to DynCorp and another private security firm, Triple Canopy, to handle diplomatic protective services in the country. But Xe continues to provide security for diplomats in other nations, most notably in Afghanistan. The former executives told the Times that the payments were approved by the company’s then-president, Gary Jackson. They did not know if he came up with the idea. It’s also not clear whether the payments were actually delivered, or which Iraqi officials were intended to receive them. Any payments would have been illegal under the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, which bans bribes to foreign officials. The com-

Two of the former executives said they were directly involved in discussions about paying Iraqi officials, and the other two said they were told about the discussions by others at Blackwater. Jackson, who resigned as president of

Blackwater early this year, criticized the newspaper when reached by phone and said, “I don’t care what you write.” Xe spokesman Mark Corallo said the company disputes “these baseless allegations” and had no comment on former employees. The plan to pay Iraqi officials caused a rift within the company, the former executives said.

Al-Maliki warns of threat in run-up to vote BAGHDAD – Iraq’s prime minister warned on Wednesday that insurgents will try to undermine the country’s fledgling democracy in the run-up to January’s national elections. Nouri al-Maliki told tribal leaders from Baghdad’s Shiite Sadr City district that maintaining security would remain his top priority because the insurgent groups do not want the January vote to be held in a secure climate.

KABUL (AP) – Military divers have found the body of a U.S. paratrooper who disappeared last week a l o n g with another soldier as the two tried to Sherman retrieve airdropped supplies from a river in western Afghanistan, NATO said Wednesday. Relatives said they believe Spc. Benjamin Sherman of Plymouth, Mass., died after jumping into the river to try to save his comrade, who was also swept away by the current. Afghan and international forces are still searching for the second missing paratrooper in the remote, Talibaninfested province of Badghis, which borders Turkmenistan. He has not been identified.

Netanyahu, Sarkozy make no breakthrough PARIS – Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and French President Nicolas Sarkozy, at odds over Jewish settlements, made no apparent dent in the dispute as they sought to find ways Wednesday to revive Mideast peace efforts. The Israeli leader said he would welcome talks with Syria as part of the broader peace push, and Sarkozy called the Palestinian president to urge renewed negotiations with Israel, according to Israeli media.

Israel shows documents it says link Iran to arms JERUSALEM – The Israeli military on Wednesday released documents and photos it said proved Iran was behind a huge shipment of weapons Israeli navy commandos intercepted last week. Israel has said the cargo ship its troops seized off the coast of Cyprus was carrying 500 tons of Iranianmade weapons for Lebanese Hezbollah militants. The ship had dozens of containers with Iranian markings on it.

Hezbollah leader lashes out at Barack Obama BEIRUT, Lebanon – Hezbollah’s leader on Wednesday accused President Barack Obama of absolute bias in favor of Israel and disregard for the dignity of Arabs and Muslims. Sheik Hassan Nasrallah said Obama has gone even farther in his military support for the Jewish state than his predecessor, George W. Bush – who was reviled in much of the Arab world for his support of Israel and war on Iraq.

Militants kill 11 in separate attacks in Pakistan KHAR, Pakistan – A roadside bomb killed nine Pakistani security officers close to the Afghan border Wednesday, while two other soldiers died in a separate militant assault on a security post in the same area, officials said. The bomb struck a convoy of paramilitary soldiers as it traveled along a road near Ghallani town in the Mohmand region just before sunset, said Zabid Khan, the top civilian administrator in the semiautonomous region. One passer-by was also killed, he said.

German chancellor helps French mark end of WWI PARIS (AP) – For the first time since World War I, the leaders of Germany and France held a joint ceremony on Wednesday to commemorate the end of the conflict, saying it is now time to celebrate their countries’ reconciliation and friendship. “French-German friendship is sealed with blood,” French President Nicolas Sarkozy said under the shadow of the Arc de Triomphe, site of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, with German Chancellor Angela Merkel at his side. Together they laid a wreath of flow-

ers at the tomb and symbolically relit the perpetual flame above it to mark the 91st anniversary of the end of World War I. “This small flame is also ... the flame of hope,” Sarkozy said. Sarkozy honored Lazare Ponticelli, who died last year at age 110, the last known French veteran of the First World War, which had torn Europe apart. “Madame chancellor, you have made a historic gesture,” Sarkozy said of Merkel’s decision to join him, despite Germany’s defeat in the war.

RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) – Heavy rain, lightning and strong winds caused blackouts that left nearly a third of Brazilians – 60 million people – in the dark, officials said Wednesday as they scrambled to restore confidence in the country’s infrastructure before soccer’s 2014 World Cup and the 2016 Olympics. The weather made transformers on a vital high-voltage transmission line short-circuit, Brazil’s energy minister said. Two other transmission lines also went down as part of an automatic safety mechanism. “The problem was exclusively with the transmission lines,” Energy Minister Edison Lobao said.

Man convicted of woman’s court killing DRESDEN, Germany – A Russian-born German man was found guilty Wednesday of murder and sentenced to life in prison for fatally stabbing a pregnant Egyptian woman in court, an attack that triggered outrage in the Muslim world. The Dresden state court said in its ruling that because of the particularly brutal nature of the crime defendant Alexander Wiens, 28, would not be eligible for early release.

Iran blasts Oxford for honoring slain protester TEHRAN, Iran – Iran has protested to an Oxford University college over a scholarship in memory of the slain Iranian student who became an icon of mass street protests sparked by the disputed June election. In Tehran, a small group of hard-line women demonstrated Wednesday against the scholarship in front of the British Embassy. The women chanted “Death to Britain,” the Fars news agency reported. Oxford’s Queen’s College established the Neda Agha Soltan Graduate Scholarship in Philosophy earlier this year.

Palestinian hopes dim 5 years after Arafat death RAMALLAH, West Bank (AP) – The tens of thousands of Palestinians who thronged Yasser Arafat’s grave Wednesday to mark the fifth anniversary of his death had a lot more to mourn than just their late leader. Arafat’s dream of an independent state seems as distant as ever with the Palestinian government in deep crisis and the rival Hamas cementing its hold on Gaza. Arafat’s successor, President Mahmoud Abbas, appears to have hit a dead end, and Palestinians are at a loss as to how to find a way out of the morass. Abbas took office with great promise after Arafat’s death five years ago. But he is so fed up with the lack of progress he has vowed to step down, something that could bring the collapse of the government. “We did what was required of us and carried out our obligations and gave

peace a historic precious chance,” Abbas said at a memorial service, surrounded by supporters. “But we see Israel taking land and building settlements.” The Largest Chinese Buffet in Town!

in Bethesda, Md., the official said. The concerns about Hasan’s performance and religious views were shared with other military officials considering his assignment after he finished his medical training, and the consensus was to send the 39-year-old psychiatrist to Fort Hood, the official said. Fort Hood, one of the country’s largest military installations, was considered the best assignment for Hasan because other doctors could handle the workload if he continued to perform poorly.

He said he wanted to “contribute positively to a better understanding of the great issues of our day.” CNN’s average primetime audience was third behind Fox and MSNBC during October.

WASHINGTON (AP) – President Barack Obama does not plan to accept any of the Afghanistan war options presented by his national security team, pushing instead for revisions to clarify how and when U.S. troops would turn over responsibility to the Afghan government, a senior administration official said Wednesday. Obama is still close to announcing his revamped war strategy – most likely shortly after he returns from a trip to Asia that ends on Nov. 19. But the president raised questions at a war council meeting Wednesday that could alter the dynamic of both how many additional

ARLINGTON, Va. (AP) – On a cold, rain-soaked Veterans Day, President Barack Obama walked slowly through the white, stone markers at the section of Arlington National Cemetery reserved for troops killed in Iraq and Afghanistan, the two wars he oversees as commander in chief. Obama led the nation Wednesday in observing Veterans Day with a traditional wreath-laying ceremony at the Tomb of the Unknowns at Arlington before an unannounced visit to the section reserved for those who fought in Iraq and Afghanistan. “We gather here mindful that the generation serving today already deserves a place alongside previous generations for the courage they have shown and the sacrifices that they have made,” Obama said in a brief speech following the wreathlaying. Obama pledged he would do right by all veterans and families, saying: “America will not let you down.” The president spoke one day after honoring the victims of a shooting rampage at Fort Hood, Texas. He said he was struck by the determination of the soldiers there, a quality that unites generations of American servicemen. “To all of them – to our veterans, to the fallen and to their families – there is no tribute, no commemoration, no praise that can truly match the magnitude of your service and your sacrifice,” he said. The nation observed Veterans Day from remembrances at the nation’s capital to a New York City parade to ceremonies in towns and

The vice president told the crowd he was grateful for their service and humbled by their sacrifices.

THOMAS SOWELL: What’s the rush with ‘fixing’ the health care system? TOMORROW

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

Case lessens faith in criminal justice system I completely sympathize with those individuals whose relatives, friends, loved ones and acquaintances were harmed by these men that the state was planning to release from prison. In South Carolina in December of 1974, my 62-year-old mother was beaten and stabbed to death by a 17-year-old black male. Ironically, my white family had been friends with the family of the offender for many years. Upon capture (which, with the support of the community took place within 24 hours of the crime), the offender stated that he needed money. My mother had $2.65 on her at the time. A trial was set for January 1975. The trial never took place. A plea bargain arrangement took place between the county sheriff and the district attorney in which the charge was reduced to involuntary manslaughter, and the criminal was given a total sentence of 65 years. This was all done with no input from any of us family members. In fact, the sheriff told us that we would not have been allowed to attend the trial if one had taken place. It was only later, as my family and I were at a parole hearing, that we learned that the offender, barring any misbehavior, would automatically be released in August of 2007. What happened to the 65-year sentence? Like the individuals listed in the media, this offender had been constantly denied parole. This offender was on work release the majority of the time he was in prison. When I raised the question of his paying restitution, to some charity, etc., I was basically told that the money he earned was his to keep.

Firearms bill does not restrict right to bear arms Cathy Brewer Hinson (Your View, Nov. 6) cited Thomas Jefferson as writing “The price of freedom is eternal vigilance.” I think H.R. 45 is probably dead in committee, having no co-sponsors. But, since she declared her intent to run for public office, vigilance demands examination of her editorial “facts.” H.R. 45 does not require for all firearms to be registered. Just handguns and semi-automatics using a clip. H.R. 45 does not require listing Social Security or driver’s license numbers. They’re not mentioned. H.R. 45 does not allow the gov-

ernment to invade your privacy in your own home. Entry is allowed only on properties where arms are held “for distribution in commerce.” H.R. 45 does not require listing firearms for the IRS. HR 45 does not tax guns at $50 each through the IRS. H.R. 45 does not restrict your right to bear arms. It does require you follow a procedure to do so. With rights come responsibilities. H.R 45 does not mention an examination at the time of purchase, much less a “lengthy” one. She wrote “another possible requirement is” for the applicant to submit to a “physical and mental evaluation.” There’s no mention in H.R. 45, but I’m pretty sure the mental part is a good idea if there’s a justifiable reason for it. She wrote “It is reported that on your next federal income tax form, all guns that you own must be listed.” Just who reported that? As for other information she

Who salutes Muslim-Americans Tax credit who stand up for U.S.? helps housing engine run A

ell, it wasn’t U.S. 6th District Rep. Howard Coble’s HOME Act of 2009, but it was close enough for government work. Last week, Congress passed and President Obama signed into law The Worker, Homeownership, and Business Assistance Act of 2009, which will extend the $8,000 tax credit for first-time homebuyers for another five months. Additionally, the law now offers a $6,500 tax credit to previous homeowners who meet certain income limits and other qualifications. The popular first-time buyer credit was set to expire this month. But a significant portion of life shown in the U.S. economy this summer and fall can be traced to consumer interest spawned by the homebuyer tax credit. Let’s hope the interest in home buying continues to grow because of the tax credit extension and expansion to previous homeowners. Let’s also hope that the home buying translates into consumer interest in new home furnishings. Most of us in the High Point area understand the relationship – the more people are buying homes, the more people are buying home furnishings. So this national stimulus for the housing industry can have a decidedly positive impact on the industrial engine that has driven this city for more than 100 years. However, we still prefer the HOME Act proposed by Coble because it is broader in scope than the law the president signed. Coble’s bill (the acronym standing for home ownership moves the economy) would have extended the first-time tax credit through all of next year. It also would have extended the credit to any homebuyer at any income level. ... ... Maybe next year.

sampling from the Web: “Why are these Muslim invaders allowed to carry on freely in this country ... protected by outreach, Obama and PC mental illness?” “Simply put, most Muslims in non-Islamic countries have an evil axe to grind and a scurrilous hidden agenda.” “Muslims should be deported from this country! They offer nothing to Americans!” This outburst of vituperation from message boards and bloggers is, of course, traceable to Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, the Army psychiatrist and American Muslim accused of shooting 13 people dead and wounding 29 others in a rampage last week at Fort Hood, Texas. At this writing, we know next to nothing of why he did it. Maybe he was a stone cold psychopath like Eric Harris who, with Dylan Klebold, shot up Columbine High in 1999. Maybe he was deranged and delusional like Seung-Hui Cho, who killed 32 people and himself at Virginia Tech in 2007. Maybe he was driven by a grudge against the federal government like Timothy McVeigh, who blew up a federal building in 1995. Maybe he was a terrorist. Predictably, it is the last possibility that has ignited outrage and condemnation from the usual speak-first, think-later types, employing the usual sweeping half truths and untruths to argue that Muslims are un-American and contribute nothing to this country. One wonders what they would say, then, to Cpl. Kareem Rashad Sultan Khan, U.S. Army, Muslim, American, killed by a roadside bomb in Iraq. Or to Spec. Rasheed Sahib, U.S. Army, Muslim, American, accidentally shot to death by a fellow soldier in Iraq. Or to Maj. James Ahearn, U.S. Army, Muslim, American, killed by a bomb in Iraq. Or to Cpt. Humayun Khan, U.S. Army, Muslim, American, killed when he approached a suicide bomber in Iraq. Would they continue in loud ignorance? Or would they simply, finally, shut up? The latter is probably too much to hope: The majority is often eager to stamp the minority with the worst actions of its worst members. The minority is left to wonder why only its worst are judged emblematic, while its best

are forgotten or ignored. So it is for Muslims, now, sacrifices and service unremembered and unremarked. If you study the list of recent American casualties, you find names redolent of every other place on Earth, names that OPINION smell of Scottish highlands and Korean marketplaces, Leonard Yemeni ports and Nigerian Pitts mosques, Russian steppes and ■■■ Mexican farms. All of them choosing to make their lives here in the land of burger joints, rap music and amber waves of grain ... a land where, it is boasted, a man is not his past, a man is not his culture, a man is not his tribe. A man is a man. It is an ideal never fully realized and yet, an ideal soldiers with names from every other place on Earth sign up every day to defend. That ought to tell you something. It ought to make you proud. And it ought to leave you impatient with the shrill, intolerant voices who would have us believe Nidal Malik Hasan is every Muslim in America. For what it’s worth, those same voices sang out when Japanese-American soldiers left internment camps to fight for freedom. And when African-American soldiers went abroad to defend democracy, then came home and were lynched still wearing their uniforms. The story is told of a black woman who refused to salute the American flag and scorned her father, a veteran, because he did. Finally he explained: He did not stand to honor the nation as it was, but the nation as it could be if only it embraced its own ideals. One suspects his reasoning would resonate today with the Muslim-American soldier walking his post in the wake of the shooting at Fort Hood. He stands up for his country. Let us hope his country will do the same for him. 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.

Give no credence to pseudointellectuals F

Congress gets wealthier, greedier as the nation suffers Political correctness premeditatedly murders 13 Americans at Fort Hood last week, as the so-called representatives of our country in the United States Congress get wealthier and wealthier. Now 44 percent of them are multimillionaires and getting richer by the minute. It’s a national disgrace as only 1 percent of Americans reach that amount of wealth. As they get more greedy and ignore the constant erosion of our republic, the military now is completely infiltrated with Muslim radicals. This so-called major had been reprimanded a while back at Walter Reed Hospital while on duty proselytizing for Islam, so let’s cut the chase and get to the truth! These people want us dead! Having deemed us Americans infidels, they have set their agenda to put us to death and wipe Israel and the United States from the face of the Earth. It’s both parties and don’t fall stupid to it’s the Democrats or Republicans. It’s both parties and comparing them is like comparing the Taliban with Afghanistan’s Northern Alliance! Where do you think these people are being bank rolled from? Iraq? You’ve got to be kidding! Our real enemy is Saudi Arabia. We now are going into the ninth year of this stupid, no-win war! Only two idiots in history have started a war own two fronts, George Bush and Adolf Hitler! We have no exit policy from Iraq and therefore it’s sort of the American gunboat policy of 1921.

Terror attacks should be front page news I am having a great deal of problems with convicted felon Gerald Hege making the front page of the Enterprise Friday concerning his run for sheriff in Davidson County while the tragedy at Fort Hood was relegated to page 6-A. Hege, like a bad penny, keeps coming back, but the Fort Hood massacre, which happened on American soil, deserves to be the banner headline on page 1. The whole “war on terror” has fallen off of the face of the Earth as the Acorn Administration is busy rallying support to take over the world’s leading health care system rather than strengthen the defenses of our nation, and the Enterprise seems to be falling right in line with the wishes of the administration by burying this story. Reports indicate that Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan screamed “Allahu akbar!” as he opened fire, killing 13 individuals and wounding over 30 more. So, someone please tell me, what is our status on the “war on terror”? RANDALL M. HEDRICK High Point

Wal-Mart to keep stores open on Black Friday vent a mad dash. The announcement doesn’t affect most of Wal-Mart’s Supercenters, which are already open 24 hours. Federal safety regulators cited Wal-Mart for inadequate crowd management after the Nov. 28, 2008, death of a temporary employee at a Long Island, N.Y., store. A crowd of shoppers broke down the store’s doors, trapping employee Jdimytai Damour, who died of asphyxiation.

BENTONVILLE, Ark. (AP) – Wal-Mart Stores said Wednesday it will keep its stores open 24 hours and take new crowd-control measures Thanksgiving weekend after a temporary employee was trampled to death in a Black Friday rush last year.

Wal-Mart was required to create improved crowd management plans for all its 92 New York stores as part of a deal with prosecutors that avoided criminal charges in the trampling death. It also was required to set up a $400,000 victims’ compensation fund, and give $1.5 million to social services programs and nonprofit groups. The agreement included no admission of guilt

by Wal-Mart. Company officials said in a statement that it consulted with safety experts in the sports and entertainment industries to develop store-specific plans for all U.S. locations. Shoppers around the country line up early outside stores on the day after Thanksgiving in the annual bargainhunting ritual known as Black Friday, the day stores break into profitability for the full year.

Jury convicts man in death of TV anchorwoman LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) – A man who told police he had been hoping to steal a laptop was convicted of capital murder Wednesday in the beating of an Arkansas TV anchorwoman so brutal that her face was shattered and she never regained consciousness. The panel was to reconvene later Wednesday to weigh whether Curtis Lavelle Vance should be executed or sentenced to life in prison without parole for the Oct. 20, 2008, attack on Anne Pressly at her Little Rock bungalow. Vance, 29, of Marianna, was also convicted of residential burglary along with rape and theft of property. Pressly, 26, was an anchor at KATV and had a bit part in the President Bush biopic “W.”

Each year, about one in six patients with the condition dies. “There really was no benefit,” said Dr. Harlan Krumholz, a cardiologist and health outcomes researcher at Yale University. The study is published in today’s New England Journal of Medicine.

If you’re among the hundreds of thousands of Americans with clogged kidney arteries, you might want to consider trying medicines before rushing into angioplasty to open them up. The pricey procedure is no more effective and carries surprisingly big risks, a study found.

Guilford school officials want discussion on stun guns STUN GUNS

BY DAVID NIVENS ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

GUILFORD COUNTY – After listening to parents complain for weeks, school district leaders decided Tuesday to talk with police about stun guns. The Guilford County Board of Education voted 9-2 to invite the High Point and Greensboro police chiefs and Guilford County Sheriff BJ Barnes to a meeting to discuss the weapons. “We have not spoken about Tasers as a board, and we should,” said Sandra Alexander, an at-large board member.

–

Weapon: Stun guns disrupt the nervous system and cause muscles to contract. The 5-second, 50,000-volt shock causes a stunned person to “freeze up.” After using stun guns for three years, Charlotte police reported in 2006 that suspect injuries had been reduced 80 percent and officer injuries 50 percent. Armed: The school system employs 16 deputies who carry stun guns. Some High Point police officers carry the weapons. Greensboro police also carry them. School resource officers are assigned to almost all district high schools and many middle schools. Board Chairman Alan Duncan has warned board members that neither county commission-

ers nor the school board can stop law enforcement agencies from deploying the weapons. Deputies have used stun guns at schools on four occasions in the past two years. Following a September

incident at Ragsdale High School, several outraged parents complained to the school board about the danger of using stun guns on students. A school resource officer used a Taser stun gun on a 15-yearold female student after she threatened two faculty members and assaulted the officer, according to the Guilford County Sheriff’s office. High Pointer Carlvena Foster has sided with several fellow school board members who called for discussing a review process for stun-gun incidents. Board member Deena Hayes has suggested

forming a review committee with subpoena powers to investigate stun-gun incidents. Board members have several views on Tasers. Foster voted for the expanded discussion. Foster also favors expanded intervention training for SROs. Board member Garth Hebert of High Point has suggested that strict reviews could deter experienced officers from taking SRO jobs because they could twice risk losing their jobs following a stun-gun incident. dnivens@hpe.com | 888-3626

HIGH POINT – The N.C. Supreme Court turns down most petitions of the sort that the state has filed in the Mary Elizabeth Roach case. Of the petitions for discretionary review ruled upon by the court since July, 132 were denied and nine were allowed, according to state data. Despite the odds, Assistant Attorney General Anne M. Middleton argued in her petition that the Court of Appeals decision was contradicted by Supreme Court opinions having to do with sufficiency of evidence. The Appeals Court found the state could not rely on circumstantial evidence to claim that Roach, 26, killed Hailey Resch “just because the child happened to be under the exclusive care of (Roach) when death occurred.” The lower court also took issue with the state’s evidence because it “makes it impossible to determine the timing of the fatal injury.” Middleton argued that the Appeals Court erroneously based this solely on the testimony of a state medical examiner, who determined that Hailey’s death was caused by blunt force trauma to the head that inflicted injuries within her brain. Roach’s medical experts during her trial agreed with the medical examiner that bruises on Hailey’s head and hemorrhages in her eyes were consistent with the state’s theory of assault, Middleton claimed. Defense experts argued that Hailey’s death could have stemmed from old injuries on the surface of her brain that didn’t heal properly. Middleton also argued the subject matter of the case “has significant public interest,” pointing out that the jury in the case served for more than two weeks. “Where we have imposed this obligation on our citizens, and where a jury met this obligation in a first-degree murder trial that took substantial time away from their ordinary routines and responsibilities, an alleged failure by our courts to abide by the standards for upholding a jury’s verdict should be carefully scrutinized,” she wrote. pkimbrough@hpe.com | 888-3531

WASHINGTON (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; John J. Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Connor III, the husband of retired Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Connor, has died. The court said that Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Connor, 79, died Wednesday in Phoenix, Ariz., of complications arising from Alzheimerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s disease. John Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Connor, himself a lawyer, was diagnosed with Alzheimerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nearly two decades ago. His condition deteriorated markedly in middecade and when she announced her retirement in 2005, the justice cited the need to care her husband. The Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Connors were married in 1952 and became a leading couple on Washingtonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s social scene when they moved from Arizona in 1981 following her confirmation as the first woman on the Supreme Court. Following her retirement, Sandra Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Connor made public her familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s battle with Alzheimerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and became a vocal supporter of additional money for Alzheimerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s research. The family also shared a poignant development, saying that Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Connor struck up a romance with a fellow Alzheimerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s patient after moving into an assisted living center in Phoenix. The relationship changed his outlook for the better, their son, Scott, said, adding that his mother was just glad that he was comfortable.

N.C. woman fights cancer by focusing on work

Lisa Schiller (left) visits Teri DeMatas in her office to discuss some work issues. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t change that I was diagnosed with cancer. But how I live, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s within my power,â&#x20AC;? Schiller says. better any quicker.â&#x20AC;? Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s quick to point out that everyone deals with adversity differently. For some people, after a complex, painful surgery and intense chemotherapy, returning to work might be a poor choice. Many people faced with life-threatening illness reassess their lives, preferring to focus on family, religion or philanthropy. Schiller, 43, lists her daughters and husband as priorities, but never considered the possibility of not re-

turning to work. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You hear all the time about work-life balance. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not a phrase Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve ever used,â&#x20AC;? she says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all part of life. I wanted to get back to normal as quickly as possible.â&#x20AC;? Schillerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life took a dramatic turn April 14. Just a week earlier, she had taken her younger daughter Abby to Disney World for a few days, then flew with her older daughter Allison to New York City for another vacation. Her energy never flagged. They returned home on

a Friday. That Sunday, Schiller began feeling sick and run down, and went to urgent care. On Tuesday, doctors diagnosed primary peritoneal cancer. A sister illness to ovarian cancer, the disease attacks the lining of the abdominal cavity. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s probably not a good thing, when youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in health care and you havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t heard of it before,â&#x20AC;? she says. Schiller called her husband Rob, who met her at the doctorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office.

Art of medicine can require long waits

ear Abby: May I respond to your column regarding excessive waits in doctorsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; offices (Sept. 1)? I am a board-certified interventional cardiologist who has been practicing for 30 years. I work 85 to 90 hours each week. As hard as we try, our office schedule often falls behind. Despite recommendations that acute problems go to the emergency room, unscheduled patients come to the office with chest pains, and they must be attended to. Even scheduled patients can develop complex medical issues that require extra, unplanned time to evaluate and treat. Our patients with a history of heart disease do not mind waiting when the office runs behind because they receive the same specialized extra-care treatment when they need it. Delays that result from spending extra time evaluating and treating sick patients with complicated problems is not â&#x20AC;&#x153;unprofessionalâ&#x20AC;? behavior as â&#x20AC;&#x153;Larry W.â&#x20AC;? implied. On the contrary, it relates to the art of medicine and caring for the well-being of each patient above all else. And for the architect, I wonder when he last worked a 90-hour week, took seven or eight phone calls from his clients after midnight, and got up at 3 a.m. to do an emergency two-hour procedure before returning to his office at 8 in the morning bright-eyed, bushytailed and running on schedule the rest of the day? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Dr. Ron in Las Vegas

ADVICE Dear Abby â&#x2013; â&#x2013; â&#x2013;

Dear Dr. Ron: I felt it was only fair to print your response to my follow-up column on â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sick of Waiting in Denver.â&#x20AC;? That column elicited a mountain of letters, all of them offering reasonable explanations for the delays in medical offices. Read on:

Dear Abby: Many factors cause doctors to run behind. Routine physicals can reveal life-threatening conditions that must be dealt with immediately. Also, people do not reveal the true reason for their visit when they call, so they are not given the appropriate amount of time for the appointment. A teenager brought in for vomiting could have the stomach flu, onset diabetes or even be pregnant. A colleague once had a woman complaining of abdominal pain who gave birth in the exam room. That definitely took more than 15 minutes! â&#x20AC;&#x201C; M.D. in Woodstock, Ill. Dear Abby: My husband is a thoracic surgeon who spends four days a week in the O.R. and one action-packed day seeing patients in his office in addition to his on-call schedules. When I ask my husband what held him up when he gets home late for dinner, his response is always the same: â&#x20AC;&#x153;I give each patient my undivided

attention. I would never cut them off or hurry to see the next one until I know every concern was addressed.â&#x20AC;? If these readers who complained about waiting have a doctor as kind and caring as my husband, their wait is worth every second. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Married to a Wonderful Man Dear Abby: Every single day, multiple patients wait until their appointment time is up to say, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just one more thing I was afraid to bring up ...â&#x20AC;? Then they tell me about their chest pain, depression or possible abuse. These are things I cannot and will not ignore. But it does mean the next patient will have to wait. Some people behave as if theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to a fast food drive-thru. And if things donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t change, that is exactly the kind of care theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll end up getting. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Delmar, N.Y., Doctor Dear Abby: When your doctor has to deliver devastating news about your health and you have lots of questions, lots of tears and your mind is filled with terror, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll appreciate the time being spent with you â&#x20AC;&#x201C; which means someone else will have to wait. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Medical Office Manager in Kingsport, Tenn. 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.

GREENSBORO â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Police Chief Tim Bellamy will retire within the next year, he said Wednesday. During the recent city council campaign, several candidates mentioned the impending retirement of the chief. But up until Wednesday, Bellamy said he had not planned to retire yet. Bellamy, 50, who has

been with the department since 1983, said he has not set a date for his retirement and plans to speak to City Manager Rashad Young about his decision in the coming days. During the election, Mayor-elect Bill Knight, who has called for better leadership in the police department, has said the city should make sure it plans ahead when it comes time to replacing Bellamy.

RALEIGH (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Lisa Schillerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work ID still shows her with a full head of hair. The picture was taken before May, when her hair began to fall out and she began wearing hats, and before April, when she was diagnosed with a rare type of cancer. The badge and photo are both symbolic: The badge because Schiller, the vice president of marketing at Rex Healthcare, finds refuge from her disease by continuing to work at a mostly full pace. The photo because she expects to recover and that her hair will grow back. The News & Observer of Raleigh reported that Schiller likes to paraphrase a quote from author and rabbi Naomi Levy that she read 10 years ago, when another tragedy struck her family: â&#x20AC;&#x153;We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have the ability to choose our fate, but we have the ability to choose how we respond to it.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t change that I was diagnosed with cancer. But how I live, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s within my power,â&#x20AC;? Schiller says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Work is something that I enjoy. I feel productive. The alternative of sitting around feeling sorry for myself wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t going to make me

WAYNESVILLE â&#x20AC;&#x201C; U.S. Rep. Health Shulerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s opposition to the health care reform bill passed by his colleagues in the House over the weekend apparently changed little in the months leading up to the vote. In a telephone conference call with reporters Tuesday morning, Shuler defended his â&#x20AC;&#x2122;noâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; vote â&#x20AC;&#x201C; one of 39 â&#x20AC;&#x2122;noâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; votes from House Demo-crats â&#x20AC;&#x201C; as a vote against rising public and private costs of healthcare and for increased incentives for living healthier lifestyles. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a theme that didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t change much from a conference call two months ago when Shuler touted â&#x20AC;&#x153;cost containmentâ&#x20AC;? and health incentives as key to improving the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s health care system. The House bill would â&#x20AC;&#x153;do nothing but add

people to a broken system thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just going to add cost,â&#x20AC;? Shuler said in Tuesdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s conference call. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It (the bill) is not the reform thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s needed to lower the cost of health care and increase the quality of heath care,â&#x20AC;? Shuler said. The House voted 220215 in favor of H.R. 3962, the Affordable Health Care for America Act Saturday night. The vote came after months of often rancorous debate in House chambers and in town hall meetings across the country. Like many of his colleagues, Shuler heard plenty from constituents, colleagues and even President Barack Obama about how he should vote on the measure. In a town hall teleconference in early September, Shuler voiced his opposition to early health care reform efforts in the House.

Pharmacist draws high praise I am writing to salute Ryan Hoskins of Archdale Drug, featured in a recent business profile for his achievements as owner of Archdale Drug, Deep River Drug and the pharmacy at Cornerstone Health Care. Reporter Pam Haynes did a great job of capturing the boundless energy and drive of this accomplished, yet humble young entrepreneur. If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been to one of his pharmacies, you know first-hand that Ryan takes seriously his mantra, â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have one chance to get and keep a customer.â&#x20AC;? Ryan was one of the very first customers of my company, Parata Systems; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a partnership that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve enjoyed since we innovated dispensing technology in the retail pharmacy industry back in 2003. His teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s energy and commitment to excellence have made him an ideal partner and a pleasure to work with. No one wants to face health issues, but readers of this newspaper should take comfort that when they do, they enjoy access to a national leader in pharmacy care, service and innovation. Kudos to Ryan and his loyal pharmacy team! JESS EBERDT, CEO, Parata Systems

Hemorrhoid treatments are many

ear Dr. Donohue: What kind of doctor removes hemorrhoids? Mine are very irritating. Can they be removed in ways other than surgery? – D.E. Regular surgeons and proctologists remove hemorrhoids. Proctologists are specialist surgeons who deal with the surgical treatment of the colon, rectum and anus. Many family doctors treat hemorrhoids. Surgery isn’t the only treatment. You can get an accurate picture of hemorrhoids by thinking of them as being similar to the varicose veins of the legs. They’re not veins; they’re cushions of tissues that contain small arteries and veins, but the varicose vein comparison isn’t far from the mark. Hemorrhoids that lie close to the anal opening are “external” hemorrhoids. They have a rich nerve supply, so they can be most painful and often are itchy. Hemorrhoids farther up the rectum are “internal” hemorrhoids. They can become so enlarged that they protrude through the anus. Clots in both kinds of hemorrhoids make them painful. One simple measure is soaking in a tub of warm water in such a way that the water bathes the anal opening; it’s called a sitz bath, and it can shrink hemorrhoids. The knees are bent upward so that only the hips, buttocks and feet are submerged in the water. Soak for 15 minutes at a stretch. It

takes several baths for this treatment to work. Fiber or stool softeners prevent HEALTH stool from hardening. Dr. Paul Hard stools Donohue require ■■■ straining to evacuate, and that enlarges hemorrhoids. Doctors have many methods for treating them. Rubber bands can be slipped on the base of a hemorrhoid with a special instrument. Deprived of their blood supply, the hemorrhoids shrink and are sloughed off. Infrared photo (light) coagulates hemorrhoids, another simple procedure for getting rid of them. Stapling can be accomplished relatively easy. It sounds painful, but it’s not. The choice of treatment depends on the hemorrhoids’ location and other considerations. I have not mentioned all possible procedures. Dear Dr. Donohue: Several months ago, my doctor referred me to a specialist because my blood counts were dropping. The hematologist did more bloodwork and a bone marrow biopsy, and said everything looked good. His report states there is pancytopenia. Can you explain a bit more for me? The definition I found on the Internet scared me, because it said it’s related to HIV. I have never been sexually active, being a celibate priest. I have given blood

plasma. Could infection have been passed that way? – P.D. You can stop worrying. You don’t have HIV, and your condition isn’t at all affecting your health or your life span. Pancytopenia is a decrease in the number of all blood cells – red, white and platelets, the bloodclotting cells. Its significance depends on how low the counts are. You’ve had a marrow biopsy. The marrow is the place where blood cells are made. Nothing bad was found there. That eliminates most bad causes of pancytopenia. Your count must not be very low, or you’d have symptoms. You don’t. Furthermore, the hematologist assured you all was well. You’re doing fine. Worry isn’t warranted. Dear Dr. Donohue: I just had a flu shot. How long does it take after the shot before I am protected against infection? – D.J. The shot rouses the immune system to make antibodies, the body’s bullets against infecting germs. Antibody production peaks approximately two weeks after the shot. Protection from the shot lasts for at least six months. DR. DONOHUE regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but he will incorporate them in his column whenever possible. Readers may write him or request an order form of available health newsletters at P.O. Box 536475, Orlando, FL 32853-6475.

–

Nationally known group will perform in unused showroom BY VICKI KNOPFLER ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

IGH POINT – A live music venue will open with a nationally known group Thanksgiving weekend in an unused, downtown furniture showroom. The group Donna the Buffalo will perform Nov. 28 in the former Natale building at 400 English Road. Natale closed in 2006, and space in the building since has been rented as showrooms. Showroom rentals there fizzled in the past year, said owner Gabriele Natale. Natale hopes the new music venue, The Aquarius Music Hall, will grow into an entertainment complex. “The idea is to have six to eight events a year, with three nationallevel events and the others local bands,” Natale said. “We hope to have 6,000 to 8,000 people a month and turn it into a complex with restaurants and a bar, and next thing you know, you have an entertainment complex in town.” Natale is working with Thomas F. Canoy of High Point to booking entertainers and renovate the space into a performance venue. “We are planning on keeping this thing going,” Canoy said. “We’re having to test the waters, but we’re committed to the opening weekend and a few more in December and maybe January. Hopefully, ... we’ll entertain market guests, too. “Where else can you entertain people from throughout the world? I truly believe it’s an outstanding opportunity to turn a building and downtown High Point into a place people will come and see really good music.” Canoy chose Donna the Buffalo, based in upstate New York, for the opening weekend because the band has a large group of fans, known as “The Herd,” that follows the band to shows and makes for an almost-guaranteed audience. Donna the Buffalo plays bluegrass and country music in the jam-band tradition. On Nov. 27, three local acts will perform, and on Nov. 28 a local musician will perform in the lobby of Aquarius as concertgoers arrive to see Donna the Buffalo. Although the city has not

What: The Aquarius Music Hall Where: 400 English Road Shows, both at 8 p.m.: Nov. 27 – Wyndy Trail Travelers, Jukebox Riot, Fuhnetik, all from the Winston-Salem area and all bluegrass-rock jam bands; $7, at the door; Nov. 28 – Donna the Buffalo; $21, available in High Point at Planet Hardwear, 988-A N. Main St., online via etix at www. theaquariusmusichall.com signed on in any official capacity to help Aquarius, Natale believes that a well-run and attended entertainment venue would fit well with the city’s plans to revitalize downtown. City representatives have been encouraging while providing the necessary inspections and permits, he said. The 25,000-square-foot space on the first floor seems ideal for live music. The area has wood floors and ceilings – ideal for acoustics – and old brick walls. The area will have two bars; one will be in a room to the side that will serve as a lounge. Natale has applied for a permit to serve beer and wine and expects no problems obtaining it. A 21-by-30-foot stage is being built, and Canoy has contracted with a professional company to provide and operate a sound system. He’s also contracted for

The High Point Fire Department has cleared the venue for occupancy of 1,000, Canoy said, and he believes a few modifications will increase the number to 1,500. Bands will have a private entrance, two-story green room and an area for selling merchandise. The idea is for bands to be

comfortable and leave happy, and hopefully come back and spread the word about the venue, Canoy said. “Maybe, just maybe, we’re standing in a room that will change the face of High Point, and that’s what I intend to do,” he said. “There’s not another town in North Carolina where more highways come together.” vknopfler@hpe.com | 888-3601

HIGH POINTS, 3C

NEW YORK (AP) – NBC gives new meaning to the phrase “green screen” next week, spreading a proenvironmental message across five of its primetime entertainment programs. “30 Rock,” where Al Gore takes a cameo role, leads the way. Environmental themes were also added to the scripts of “The Biggest Loser,” “The Office,” “Heroes” and “Community.” NBC Universal’s three-year “green” campaign has largely focused on off-camera issues like making company facilities more eco-friendly. News and information programs have also been enlisted to do stories on environmental issues, but except for one “30 Rock” episode two years ago, the campaign hasn’t touched the prime-time lineup. This year on “30 Rock,” corporate boss Jack Donaghy tells the late-night show’s staff it has to cut its carbon footprint by 5 percent, and puts Kenneth the Page in charge of getting it done. “It’s something that is relatable and is something that a lot of people are doing,” said Jack McBrayer, the actor who portrays Kenneth. Backstage, the show has done its part by removing water bottles in favor of water filters and using chemical-free cleaning products.

TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES

At the ACBL Summer Championships, Chip Martel won the Grand National Teams for a record eighth time. Martel’s Californians beat a New York squad in a close final. Martel, today’s West, had to pick a lead against South’s slam. North’s 2NT was a conventional spade raise; his controlshowing cue bid of five diamonds had to be based on the king. East’s leaddirecting double implied the queen. Martel may have been tempted to underlead his ace of diamonds to give declarer a guess, but an expert has the discipline not to try for a spectacular result: Martel led a stodgy ace of diamonds. Later he scored his king of clubs.

HOROSCOPE

CROSSWORD

Thursday, Nov. 12, 2009 CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Omarion, 25; Ryan Gosling, 29; Radha Mitchell, 36; Sammy Sosa, 41 HAPPY BIRTHDAY: You have to follow your own path. Change is good, so take every opportunity to experience new activities and events, especially if it will add to your wisdom, skills and goals. A hidden matter regarding someone you like will be revealed and can lead to an alteration in your lifestyle. Your numbers are 5, 11, 20, 26, 37, 40, 43 ARIES (March 21-April 19): Just because you are known for your ability to get things done doesn’t mean you should let anyone take advantage of you. Do the things that will benefit you most. You have the upper hand this time, so act accordingly. It will set the stage for things to come. ★★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You cannot put up with anyone trying to derail your position or your plans. Someone you have worked with in the past will stand up for you and your ability to do what’s right. Don’t let your emotions hold you back. ★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Any challenge should be met with open arms. Refuse to let someone negative ruin your train of thought. Someone who shows an interest in you will also inspire you to do well. ★★★★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): A bad mood can ruin your plans and set you on a downward spiral. Social activity must be part of your day or you will miss meeting people and making new friends. Don’t stick around anyone who is taking you for granted. ★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Find out what’s really going on. Someone is not telling you the whole story. Without knowing the facts you cannot assess the situation. You will see things differently once you have distanced yourself from the source of the problem. ★★★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Take everyone by surprise by doing something that they least expect. You will end up in a power position that can help you out professionally or personally. You don’t need backup to be successful. ★★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Consider what’s important and what’s not and you will have a much better view of your situation and what you must do to be successful. Things may be moving a little fast for you but that’s no reason to stop in your tracks or shy away. ★★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Your reputation counts for something and you may need to pull strings to ensure that everyone knows what you have to offer. Speak from the heart and you will stop any misconceptions. Avoid any form of overindulgence. ★★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You may want to take a break and let things ride for now. If you are too vocal about what you want to do or have others do, you will make enemies. Before you make a decision, rethink your strategy. ★★★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): There is plenty to gain by trying something new or diving into a venture that has potential. Your ability to respond with something valuable to those offering you a proposition will lead to greater negotiating power and more cash. ★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Impulse purchases and people wanting to borrow will lead to stress. Talk to people who are money-wise and you will get a better understanding of how to make your money work for you. Quit bad habits. ★★★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): You may want to pick a fight or blame someone for something that probably is just as much your fault. Look at the big picture and you will realize what you have to lose by being difficult. Now is not the time to take an emotional risk. ★★★

DAILY QUESTION

BIDDING

You hold: S A K 9 8 7 H A K 10 2 D 10 8 C A 7. The dealer, at your right, opens one diamond. You double, and your partner bids two clubs. What do you say?

A low-diamond lead might have given away the slam (and, as it happened, the event). If South recalled the bidding and respected his opponent, he might have put up the king. South could then draw trumps and take the top hearts to discard a diamond from dummy. He could ruff a heart and later pitch dummy’s last diamond on the high ten of hearts.

ANSWER: Your partner’s hand is more likely than not to be miserably weak. Moreover, he probably lacks four cards in either major suit since your double begged him to bid a major. Bid two spades, suggesting substantial extra strength. If partner has a few values, you may still reach game. South dealer Both sides vulnerable

---

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

Wolfpack eager to prove doubters wrong this season I

been a lot of work, a lot of running, a lot of lifting, but I believe it’s going to all be worth it and I believe we will surprise a few teams this year.” To do that, State SPORTS will need better play from the point Steve guard position after Hanf recording nearly as ■■■ many turnovers (435) as assists (458) last winter. That’s a figure that pains Sidney Lowe following his standout career at the point with the Wolfpack. Degand shifts to shooting guard this season, paving the way for junior Javi Gonzalez and sophomore Julius Mays to win the spot. Gonzalez started the last 10 games of last season at the point and finished the year with a team-high 72 assists, while Mays had a typical up-and-down freshman campaign: three starts at the point, just one minute of action in the final eight ACC games – then a season-high 18 points against Maryland in a 74-69 ACC Tournament loss. Lowe, entering his fourth season leading the team, said neither guard has emerged as a clear-cut favorite in the early stages of the preseason. “I need to see it consistently,” he said. “When one player takes control and he’s better for sure pretty much every day, then that’s the way it goes. Now, one pulls away and the other comes back. I just hope they both be great. That’d be fine with me.” The guards’ biggest job this season will be getting the ball inside to Tracy Smith, the 6-foot-8 junior forward who started the final 11 ACC games of the year and finished with 10 points and 4.5 rebounds per game. There’s plenty of replace in the post, but Lowe expects Smith to carry that load along with freshmen

n 18 home games last season, N.C. State sold out the RBC Center just once. And quite a few of the crowd of 19,700 that day showed up in Tar Heel gear. As the Wolfpack struggled to a 16-14 overall record, posted a 6-10 mark in the Atlantic Coast Conference and missed the NCAA Tournament for a third straight season, discontent grew among the State faithful. The doom and gloom only increased this summer when Brandon Costner opted for the NBA Draft instead of returning for his senior season. He’s now playing in Belgium after averaging a team-high 13.3 points last season in Raleigh to go along with big numbers in blocks and assists. Toss in the graduation of seniors Ben McCauley (No. 2 in scoring at 12.4) and Courtney Fells (No. 3 at 11.3), and it’s easy to see why N.C. State landed last in the preseason ACC poll. So are people sleeping on the Pack this year? Perhaps, offered senior guard Farnold Degand. “I don’t mind that,” he said. “Once we start beating a few guys, I think they’ll wake up. I think we’re ready for the challenge.” The 100th season of basketball at the school begins Thursday against Georgia State, with Degand promising fans a new level of energy on the floor as the Pack seeks to defy the low expectations. “The intangibles – in the ACC there’s a lot of talent, and the difference between one game might be the loose ball you don’t get, the free throw you might miss,” Degand offered. “Things like that are the things we’re focusing on to make sure we can put ourselves in positions to win games. “If we want to surprise anybody, we’re gong to have to put in the time and work we need to to prepare ourselves to play the high-caliber teams,” Degand continued. “It’s

WHO’S NEWS

---

Head coach Sidney Lowe and his N.C. State Wolfpack open the regular season tonight at 7 p.m. against visiting Georgia State. DeShawn Painter and Jordan Vandenberg. “I think Tracy is going to do a great job,” Lowe said. “If they don’t double down on him, I feel he’ll be able to score for us. He had a tremendous summer, looks good, is in great shape.” Lowe said the progress made by Vandenberg, a 7-1, 238-pounder from Australia, should surprise a lot of people. The play of Raleigh Athens Drive freshman Josh Davis also could catch folks off guard, with Lowe saying the athletic 6-7 forward will be hard to keep off the floor. Toss in more production from 6-9 senior forward Den-

nis Horner (6.4 ppg), athletic sophomore C.J. Williams (3.7 ppg) and the addition of highly touted 6-8 freshman forward Richard Howell – missing in preseason workouts due to a knee injury – and the Wolfpack may just be ready to delight crowds at the RBC Center again. “I think we’re going to surprise a lot of people because we have kids that maybe weren’t able to show their abilities last year,” Horner explained. “We had Brandon, Ben and Courtney who played very well. Now it’ll be time for other guys to step up.” shanf@hpe.com | 888-3526

Quayle hits playoffs in postseason form HP CENTRAL AT GLENN

BY SAN QUENTIN QUAYLE PLAYOFF PAYOFF

It’s time to separate the contenders from the pretenders. This is where the rubber meets the road, where champions are forged and wannabees are exposed as forgeries. It’s win or go home. It’s week one of the playoffs. And I’m in prime-time postseason form. Last week’s 10-2 record left me a sterling 109-23 (82.6 percent) for the regular season. But, alas, the slate is wiped clean. We’re all 0-0. I have to earn my prognosticating stripes all over again. Believe me. I’m ready for the test. Here are this week’s openinground picks:

HIT AND RUN

he Patriots and Colts renew the AFC’s fiercest and most compelling rivalry of the last decade on Sunday in Indianapo-

lis. As has been the case in the last several seasons, this game pits two of the NFL’s best in a crucial regular-season clash. Indy enters with an 8-0 record, while New England stands 6-2. The Colts know they can take a stranglehold on the race for AFC home-field advantage with a win. The Patriots need a victory to stay in the hunt for home-field advantage.

But this game is about much more than playoff positioning. The contest showcases two of the NFL’s premier quarterbacks (Peyton Manning and Tom Brady) and teams that have combined to win four of the last seven Super Bowls (three by the Pats). But the rivalry itself is also interesting. New England leads 44-28 all time, including 42-27 in the regular season. Since their first meeting on Oct. 4, 1970 (a 14-6 Colts win), the squads have played at least once in every season except for 2002. It’s been a series of streaks in recent times.

The Patriots won 16 of 18 between 1996 and January of 2005. The Colts responded with wins in four of the last five, including a 38-34 triumph in the 2007 AFC title game and an 18-15 victory last November. Ironically, the Colts and Pats were AFC East rivals from 1970-2001 and met twice annually in the regular season, but the rivalry did not gain steam until after Indy left for the AFC South starting in 2002. Look for another classic Sunday night in Indianapolis.

Junior’s back in Seattle, one more time. Ken Griffey Jr. and the Mariners agreed Wednesday to another one-year contract that will keep the popular player in town for what could be his final season. Griffey, who turns 40 on Nov. 21, was guaranteed $2 million when he signed to return to Seattle for the 2009 season and had the chance to earn more in bonuses. “The framework of this year’s contract is similar to last year’s,” Griffey’s agent, Brian Goldberg, said by telephone. It is believed Griffey will get a slightly higher base salary, with fewer incentives based upon plate appearances and Mariners home attendance. He earned $1.15 million of a possible $3 million in bonuses from this year’s contract. He is likely to again be a parttime designated hitter in his 22nd major league season. A 10-time All-Star and the 1997 AL MVP for the Mariners, Griffey hit .214 last season with 19 homers as a part-time DH.

SPORTS THE HIGH POINT ENTERPRISE THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 12, 2009 www.hpe.com

Rain postpones start of Big South menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s soccer tournament to Friday SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE

HIGH POINT â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Due to ongoing rain from Tropical Storm Ida, the Big South Conference announced Wednesday that it has pushed back the start of the 2009 Menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Soccer Championship one day to Friday. The tournament was scheduled to begin today at the Vert Soccer Stadium

on the campus of High Point University, but due to field conditions and continued rain in the High Point area from the storm, the championship will now be contested Friday-Sunday. The quarterfinals will now be played on Friday, with the semifinals moved to Saturday. The championship game remains Sunday as scheduled. See updated schedule on 2D.

Titans quiet Storm ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

JAMESTOWN â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Freshman Charlon Kloof poured in 19 points and five rebounds as Guilford Technical Community College topped Davidson County Community College 78-64 on Wednesday night. Travis DeShazor added 12 points and seven assists for the Titans (4-0). Justin Glover paced the Storm (2-2)

with 20 points and Roderick Geter tallied 12 as 11 DCCC players cracked the scoring column. GTCC plays in the Hampton Inn Tipoff Classic on Friday and Saturday in Rockingham. Fridayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s game starts at 6 p.m. DCCC, meanwhile, visits Chapel Hill on Sunday at 1 p.m. to battle the UNC junior varsity. That game will be played in the Smith Center.

Kings extend Hurricanesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; misery

Pistons pummel Bobcats, 98-75 AUBURN HILLS, Mich. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Charlie Villanueva had a season-high 30 points and outscored Charlotte by himself in the third quarter, leading the Detroit Pistons to a 98-75 win over the Bobcats on Wednesday night. Villanueva had 18 points in the third â&#x20AC;&#x201C; six more than Charlotteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s team had in the quarter. Gerald Wallace scored 12 and Flip Murray had 11 points for the Bobcats.

former Hurricane Justin Williams each added a goal and an assist, Ryan Smyth and Jarret Stoll also scored and Anze Kopitar had an assist for his NHL-leading 29th point. The Kings scored three third-pe-

riod goals and snapped their two-game losing streak. Tuomo Ruutu scored twice for Carolina, and tied it at 2-all with just under 16 minutes remaining on a snap shot from the left circle.

49ersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Singletary not focused on facing former team SAN FRANCISCO (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Mike Singletary became a Hall of Fame linebacker with the Chicago Bears during a 12-year career spent all with the same club. Photos of Singletary and his Monsters of the Midway brethren still hang in the linebackers meeting room, reminders of the Bearsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; special 1985 Super Bowl season. For Singletary, this is no time to turn nostalgic.

He would rather not reflect too much on his time with the Bears. He has few ties there anymore and finding a way to beat his former team tonight is all he can think about right now. Singletaryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 49ers (3-5) are desperate to get back on track, mired in a fourgame losing streak. The Bears (4-4) are trying to find their way, too, following a 41-21 loss to the Arizona Cardinals.

Panthersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Williams leads long injury list CHARLOTTE (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Carolina Panthers running back DeAngelo Williams has missed practice because of a sore knee. Coach John Fox said Wednesday that Williams tweaked it and will be evaluated. Williams rushed for 149 yards and two touchdowns in Sundayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s loss to New Orleans. Fellow running back Jonathan Stewart also sat out, but has routinely missed Wednesday workouts

to rest his sore Achillesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; tendon. Defensive end Julius Peppers was limited with what Fox called a â&#x20AC;&#x153;messed upâ&#x20AC;? right hand. Tight end Dante Rosario (knee) was also limited. Fullback Brad Hoover remained sidelined with a sprained ankle, but backup Tony Fiammetta returned after missing a game with a concussion. Receiver Muhsin Muhammad practiced after missing two games with a knee injury.

Skinsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Portis â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;very, very doubtfulâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; for Sunday ASHBURN, Va. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Still feeling the effects of a concussion, Redskins running back Clinton Portis was hardly his vivacious, loquacious self when he met with coach Jim Zorn on Wednesday and probably will miss this weekendâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s game against the Denver Broncos. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to rule

him out, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very doubtful that heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to play,â&#x20AC;? Zorn said. He then added, in response to a reporterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s question: â&#x20AC;&#x153;I would say â&#x20AC;&#x2122;very, very doubtful.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? Portis left in the first quarter of Washingtonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 31-17 loss to the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday after a helmet-to-helmet hit.

Portis ranks eighth in the NFC with 494 yards rushing this season for Washington (2-6), which has lost four games in a row. If Portis does sit out, Ladell Betts â&#x20AC;&#x201C; used mainly as a third-down back â&#x20AC;&#x201C; would be expected to get his first start since the last game of the 2006 regular season.

Quinn back in saddle for Browns BEREA, Ohio (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Brady Quinn and the Cleveland Browns are right back where they started. Benched by coach Eric Mangini just 21â &#x201E;2 games and 69 pass attempts into the season, Quinn will start Monday nightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s game against the Baltimore Ra-

vens, the team he was facing on Sept. 27 when the former Notre Dame star was yanked at halftime. Quinnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s got his second chance. Now he must make the most of it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m excited to play,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m excited to be part of Monday night.â&#x20AC;?

Rollins, Victorino repeat as Gold Glove winners NEW YORK (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Shortstop Jimmy Rollins won his third consecutive NL Gold Glove and Philadelphia Phillies teammate Shane Victorino has won for the second straight time in the outfield. St. Louis catcher Yadier Molina and San Diego first baseman Adrian Gonzalez also were secondtime winners announced Wednesday. Cardinals pitcher Adam Wainwright succeeded

Greg Maddux, who won his record 18th last year. Dodgers second baseman Orlando Hudson won for the fourth time, taking over from Cincinnatiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Brandon Phillips. Washington third baseman Ryan Zimmerman replaced the Metsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; David Wright, a boyhood friend. Houston outfielder Michael Bourn and Dodgers outfielder Matt Kemp also were firsttime winners.

Blue Devils hope to pass more tests BY BRYAN STRICKLAND ENTERPRISE DURHAM BUREAU

DURHAM â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Duke coach David Cutcliffe knows his Blue Devils can run the ball better, but he also has accepted that this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s team is better off throwing it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a difficult matchup for us right now, so weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re doing what we think we have to do,â&#x20AC;? Cutcliffe said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Duke will run the football eventually; how well we can run the football right now remains to be seen. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s somewhat of a challenge for us with the ingredients that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re playing with, but we can run it better than we have. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t fret about it; you just find other ways to generate points.â&#x20AC;? After netting just 12 rushing yards in Saturdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s loss at North Carolina, the Blue Devils have slipped to 119th out of 120 Football Bowl Subdivision teams in rushing, averaging 68.2 yards per game heading into Saturdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s key home game against No. 7 Georgia Tech (noon, ESPN2). Duke rolled up 233 yards rushing against Division I newcomer N.C. Central but has netted a total of just 381 yards over its other eight games. â&#x20AC;&#x153;To run the football, you have to make blocks at the point of attack,â&#x20AC;? Cutcliffe said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve just got to maintain blocks, and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re struggling with that. We have to block the line of scrimmage better.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Once we get started on runs, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been effective, but weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had too many zero or minus-1 runs.â&#x20AC;? Dukeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s longest run from scrimmage for a running back against a Football Championship Series opponent is a 17yarder for Reâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;quan Boyette at Army, one of just six runs by running backs of at least 10 yards against FCS opponents. Freshman Desmond Scott out of Hillside High School is the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s leading rusher with 174 yards on the season. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think we have some ability there, but thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s probably a confidence issue on their part,â&#x20AC;? Cutcliffe said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had a lot of injuries there, so itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been very difficult.â&#x20AC;? Still, even without a real threat from the running game to keep defenses honest â&#x20AC;&#x201C; designed draws for quarterback Thad Lewis have been the most effective running plays over the past month â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Duke still ranks 11th in the nation with 301.6 passing yards per game. UNCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pass defense, ranked fifth in the nation, slowed Dukeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s passing attack, but Georgia Tech ranks 68th in pass defense. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Some teams have had passing success against them,â&#x20AC;? Cutcliffe said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When players see somebody have success, it gives you hope and hope isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a bad thing. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But the bottom line is that you have to go and execute on that given day.â&#x20AC;?

NASCAR docks Busch 25 Nationwide points RACING NOTEBOOK:

n issuing penalties on Wednesday, NASCAR reduced the cushion that Kyle Busch will have in his effort to clinch the NASCAR Nationwide Series title on Saturday at Phoenix. NASCAR took 25 points away from Busch and 25 from car owner Joe Gibbs as part of the penalties for unsecured weight found in Buschâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s car during opening-day inspection last weekend at Texas. The deduction reduces Buschâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lead to 247 points over Carl Edwards. Busch can clinch the championship without starting the season-finale at Homestead by leaving Phoenix with a lead of 195 points. Buschâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s crew chief Jason Ratcliff was fined $5,000 and placed on probation until Dec. 31. NASCAR also fined Brad Parrott for unapproved work on John Wes Townleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s car while it was impounded after qualifying at Texas. Parrott, who was also docked $5,000, was removed from his role as Townleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s crew chief earlier this week.

TWO IN A ROW

Fultz of Troutman. Bill Elliottâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s son Chase was fifth. Concord isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t done for the season. The half-mile will host the final race for the UARA-STARS series on Sunday. SPORTS Brandon McReynolds, son of Larry McReynolds, Greer won an UARA event last Smith Sunday that was the â&#x2013; â&#x2013; â&#x2013; first race in seven years at Kingsport Speedway. Jamey Caudill was second and Matt McCall third. McCall holds a 47-point lead over Caudill in the battle for the seriesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; championship.

PHOTOGRAPHER PASSES Long-time racing photographer Dozier Mobley died Tuesday after a lengthy illness. He was 75. Mobley worked as a photographer for the Atlanta Journal and then the wire services before becoming the photographer for Winston cigarettes sponsorship of the Cup series. One of his classic photographs, taken while working for the Associated Press, is of New York Giants quarterback Y.A. Tittle on his knees with blood streaming down his face. Mobley was also remembered for his pictures of two students as they became the first African-Americans to attend the University of Georgia in 1961. As photographer for Winston, Mobley distributed pictures of Cup races to a number of racing publications and other outlets. No funeral service is planned at Mobleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s request.

Burt Myers upheld the honor of the areaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s modified contingent once again. Myers prevailed in the North-South Shootout on Sunday at Concord Motor Speedway, joining John Blewett II of New Jersey and Matt Hirschman of Pennsylvania as winners of the event in consecutive years.

Johnson makes most of lessons learned from Gordon FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Jeff Gordon was on the verge of winning his fourth NASCAR championship as a driver when he made his debut as a co-owner and teammate for an unproven driver named Jimmie Johnson. The two drivers have become good friends in the eight years since Johnson joined Hendrick Motorsports, with Gordon spending many hours explaining the finer points of stock car racing and offering plenty of advice to his eager pupil. That investment of time has paid off, but also come at a price. As Johnson closes in on an un-

precedented fourth consecutive Sprint Cup title, he remains the biggest roadblock to Gordonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s quest to win a fifth title. Despite a crash last weekend at Texas that led to a 38th-place finish, Johnson still has a firm grip on the Chase for the championship with a 73-point lead over Hendrick teammate Mark Martin. While Gordon would enjoy winning another championship as a co-owner, it isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t what keeps him driving the No. 24 car. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It seems like 20 years ago,â&#x20AC;? he said of winning his last championship in 2001. And as in many of those years

since then, Gordon is once again chasing Johnsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s No. 48. Gordon was the runner-up to Johnson in the 2007 title chase by 77 points. This year he is 112 points back in third place after finishing 13th at Texas, where he was the polesitter nearly seven months after he had won there for the first time. Given Johnsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s crash, Gordon called his showing on Sunday a â&#x20AC;&#x153;total missed opportunity.â&#x20AC;? While the two are still friends and teammates, Gordon recently acknowledged that the competitive nature of their relationship has affected their friendship. Gordon went on to say they

would be better friends in 15 or 20 years, presumably when both are done racing. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no doubt that over the last few years competition has been more intense. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been racing for championships,â&#x20AC;? Johnson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was a lot easier when I was a rookie needing assistance and help. We spent a lot of time together then. I guess we were both single and not married at that point, too, having a lot of fun.â&#x20AC;? A year before his Cup debut, Johnson was stuck in what was then the Busch series, the predecessor to Nationwide, when by chance he sat next to Gor-

don at a driversâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; meeting. Needing advice on his next career step, he mustered the courage to ask Gordon if they could talk. What he didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know was that just days earlier Gordon and team owner Rick Hendrick had talked about finding a young driver to field another team. When their partnership became official with Johnson racing three times at the end of the 2001 season, Gordon already had 58 of his 82 career victories. He is one behind Cale Yarborough for fifth on the career list, and two behind Bobby Allison and Darrell Waltrip, who are tied for third.

Stocks rise on low rates

PERCENT RETURN YTD 1YR 3YR* 5YR*

NEW YORK (AP) – More signs that interest rates will remain low and upbeat economic news from China gave investors new reason to keep buying stocks Wednesday. Federal Reserve officials signaled in speeches late Tuesday that a recovery in the economy is likely to be weak. Investors took that as another sign that policymakers will hold interest rates low to help resuscitate growth. Expectations of low rates weighed on the dollar and gave a boost to commodities. Oil and gold held their advances even after the dollar pulled off of a 15-month low. Investors also drew encouragement from a 16.1 percent jump in industrial production in China. That fanned expectations that a broader global recovery is gaining steam. A jump in orders at luxu-

Geithner likes moves in Japan, China “We’re very, very encouraged to see what’s happening here in terms of a broad reform agenda ... to try to produce an economy more dependent on domestic sources of growth,” Geithner said in Tokyo on his way to joining Pacific Rim finance ministers meeting in Singapore for the annual APEC summit. If the world economy is to grow in a stable way, he said, “it’s going to be less driven by the American consumer. You need to see a change in the sources of growth.”

Economic cooperation is expected to be a key agenda item during President Barack Obama’s visit to Tokyo on Friday and Saturday that will also address security and climate change. Japan is Obama’s first stop on an Asian tour that will take him to China and South Korea next week after attending the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit in Singapore this weekend. Asian countries have been refocusing their efforts on boosting demand at home since their economies were battered by a

collapse in exports amid the economic crisis. In Japan, the world’s No. 2 economy, the government has been offering consumers incentives to buy environmentally friendly products such as hybrid cars and energy-efficient appliances. The new government under Prime Minister Yukio Hatoyama also has pledged to center its policies on consumers, instead of large companies, and has pledged monthly cash handouts of $280 to families with young children.

AIG head may quit over pay NEW YORK (AP) – After just three months as head of embattled insurer American International Group, Robert Benmosche has threatened to leave his post as he struggles to deal with heavy government oversight and restrictions on what the bailed-out company can pay employees, according to a published report.

Citing unnamed people familiar with the matter, The Wall Street Journal reported online late Tuesday that Benmosche told AIG’s board he was “done” with the job, although he reportedly is reconsidering his stance in the face of the board’s dismay. A spokesman for AIG declined to comment on the report.

Shares of AIG fell $1.09, or 2.9 percent, to $36.50 in premarket trading Wednesday. According to the people cited by the Journal, the former MetLife CEO is frustrated with the constraints of leading a company majority-owned by the government. The newspaper said Benmosche has complained to AIG’s board about the

TOKYO (AP) – Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner said Wednesday he’s encouraged by efforts in Japan and China to spur domestic demand instead of relying so heavily on American consumers — a shift that will contribute to more stable global growth. Geithner said he sees broad recognition among governments to create policies that will lead to more balanced, sustainable growth and avoid the kind of dangerous imbalances that contributed to the world recession.

outcome of the Treasury Department’s pay review which slashed pay for a number of AIG executives by 91 percent from 2008. When the credit crisis hit last year, the U.S. government rescued AIG from the brink of collapse with a loan bailout package worth up to $182.5 billion in exchange for an 80 percent stake in the insurer.

Drug industry presses for online ads WASHINGTON (AP) – As federal regulators take their first tentative steps toward policing the wild west of medical information online, pharmaceutical companies are pressing their case to market drugs via Google, Twitter and other Web sites. The Food and Drug Administration will convene a two-day meeting beginning Thursday to hear the drug industry’s position on Internet marketing. The agency has agreed to consider developing rules for online advertising after companies complained that the current guidelines for traditional media — which require a detailed list of possible side effects — have left them hamstrung on the Web.

World Bank warns of U.S. jobless threat SINGAPORE (AP) – Stubbornly high joblessness threatens to trigger loan defaults and drag on consumption next year, hobbling a U.S. economy struggling to rebound from recession, World Bank President Robert Zoellick said Wednesday. Zoellick warned that the U.S. unemployment rate, which jumped to a 26-year high of 10.2 percent in October, will likely remain elevated in 2010. “You’re going to have problems with delinquencies of credit card loans, consumer loans, people won’t be able to pay their mortgages,” Zoellick told reporters in Singapore. “Some banks are going to continue to be troubled by bad loans.”

Oil rises as China rebounds NEW YORK (AP) – Oil prices ticked higher Wednesday as OPEC said the world would consume more crude in 2010 than previously expected, and China said its economy improved. Benchmark crude for December delivery added 27 cents to $79.32 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange.

New applications boost textile industry MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

GREENSBORO – In 2008, when the Department of Defense purchased 40 million pounds of composites for ground armor, about 80 percent of it was fabric and fiber. That’s according to Marcia Price, president of the Southern Pinesbased market research firm Vector Strategy. She was one of about a dozen speakers Monday at the Sheraton Greensboro Hotel during a conference called Military/ Performance Textiles: A Strong Market for N.C. Companies. From EFPs to MATVs, Price threw several military initials at the group. When she was done, some attendees – those who may be familiar with terms such as explosively formed projectiles and multipurpose all terrain vehicles – nodded their heads with enthusiastic expressions. Others looked a little bit lost. “I know there are a lot

of sock guys and underwear guys in here,” Jim Leonard, a conference organizer, said after Price spoke. But, he said it was good for everyone, no matter what their current focus, to hear some of the different textile-related applications being pursued. Thinking outside of the traditional textile box was a central theme of Monday’s conference. It attracted 180 attendees, all of them tied to textiles in some way –be it as a salesman who calls on plants across the state trying to sell them dye or the executive from New England who uses North Carolina’s remaining mills for some of his company’s orders. Some joked with Leonard that they didn’t think there were that many people still left in the business. In fact, Leonard said, there are still about 1,800 textile-related companies in North Carolina today.

China’s economy improves BEIJING (AP) – The slump in China’s exports eased last month as industrial output and retail sales rose sharply, the government said Wednesday, showing that recovery in the world’s third-largest economy was firmly on track. Exports fell 13.8 percent in October to $110.8 billion

from the same month last year, the smallest decrease in 10 months, according to government figures. Imports dropped by 6.4 percent to $86.8 billion over the same period, a slightly faster pace than in September. Meanwhile, the key inflation rate, known as the consumer price index, was down 0.5 percent.

Gold keeps surging

Flags fly outside the Macy’s Downtown Crossing store in Boston on Oct. 5.

Macy’s posts smaller loss NEW YORK (AP) — Macy’s Inc.’s third-quarter loss shrunk as tight inventory controls and a move to localize merchandise at its department stores by region paid off. The company also raised its full-year profit and sales outlook. The profit outlook, however, didn’t go as high as analysts expected, and shares fell $1.17, or 6 percent, to $18.26 in morning trading. Some of the company’s best-performing districts

were the original test beds for the locally tailored merchandise. Other bright spots were its growing Internet business and rebounding sales performance at Bloomingdale’s, another sign that affluent shoppers are slowly going back to shopping after a sudden retreat last fall. The department store operator, based in Cincinnati, said Wednesday that it lost $35 million, or 8 cents per share, in the quarter ended Oct. 31. That compares with $44

million, or 10 cents per share, in the year-ago period. Excluding costs to consolidate several divisions and roll out the localization plan, Macy’s lost 3 cents per share. Macy’s reported revenue fell almost 4 percent to $5.28 billion. Sales at stores open at least a year were down 7.5 percent in the quarter. That barometer is considered a key indicator of a retailer’s health because it excludes the effects of expansion.

NEW YORK (AP) – 0 The price of gold surged to a fresh high Wednesday as the dollar fell to a 15-month low. Gold futures for December delivery jumped to as high as $1,119.10 an ounce on the New York Mercantile Exchange in morning trading, then slipped back to $1,114.20, up $11.70 from Tuesday’s close. Commodities including gold have been rising as the dollar has dropped. Gold’s latest advance came as the dollar fell after Federal Reserve officials reiterated that the central bank will keep interest rates low for an extended period to support the economic recovery. Low rates tend to weaken currencies including the dollar, encouraging investors to put their money in higher-yielding assets like gold. Investors also use gold as a hedge, not only against the falling dollar but also against inflation, which economists don’t see as a threat right now. The market, however, feels otherwise. “There is this idea that inflation is inevitable,” said Richard Sparks, senior equities analyst at Schaeffer’s Investment Research. Gold prices are up 26 percent year-to-date. That compares with a mere 5.5 percent increase in the gold price in 2008.
