Trinity council stalls vote on truck ordinance

TRINITY – The Trinity City Council on Tuesday night delayed a vote on whether to lift a moratorium it placed on a new ordinance that prohibits truck drivers from parking their tractor-trailers on their own property.

After a 50-minute public hearing, Councilman Barry Lambeth made a motion to table the truck ordinance to the City Council’s retreat in January. Lambeth’s motion passed with a 5-2 vote, with City Council members Karen Bridges and Tyler Earnst voting against the issue being tabled. “We could sit up here and beat this one to death,” Lambeth said before making his motion.

“We’ve got a lot of questions, and I encourage citizens to call us and get your input ... I think we need to sit down amongst ourselves and talk about what we want to do and what the future is.

I’m in favor of tabling this till our retreat, and sit down and hammer it out.”

Last month, the City Council decided to table the moratorium on enforcing the ordinance un-

County distributes smoking ban data to restaurants

Barry Lambeth Councilman til November’s meeting. The ordinance, which was approved in August, prohibited the parking of large trucks, including cab and trailers, cab only and/or trailer, in residential neighborhoods. The ordinance also prohibited the parking of large trucks on any public street unless in the process of loading and unloading.

Last week, the City Council agreed to consider Tuesday night text amendments to the new ordinance. The text amendments would have allowed trucks with three or more axles, and overthe-road commercial freight haulers with two or more axles, to be parked in residential zoning districts if parked behind the rear plane of the primary structure or within a permitted accessory structure.

Under the proposed text amendments, trailers would have continued to be prohibited in residential neighborhoods. The ordinance also would have allowed large trucks and trailers to be parked in residential agricultural zoning districts if screened from the view of the street or placed 300 feet from the center line of the street.

More than a dozen Trinity residents spoke during the public hearing Tuesday night. Some of the residents said trucks were a nuisance, claiming they would take legal action against truck drivers no matter what decision the City Council made because their neighborhood’s covenant prohibits the parking of tractor trailers.

GUILFORD COUNTY – Guilford County will ask smokers to kick their habit for a day on Thursday, less than two months before bar and restaurant owners are required to ban it.

The Great American Smoke Out, sponsored by the American Cancer Society and in its 33rd year, urges smokers to go a day without smoking on the third Thursday in November. The county is recognizing the day to encourage individuals to stop smoking as well as reaching out to bar and restaurant owners by mailing out packets of information regarding the smoking ban, effective Jan 2.

“I think this is a very significant issue this year in terms of the new law,” said Mary Gillett, coordinator of the Tobacco Use Prevention Coalition of Guilford County. “It’s an important issue for everyone.”

As the new year approaches, bars and restaurants will be required to ban smoking from their establishments, except for outdoor patios. The rules and regulations have been misunderstood by many, Gillett said, and the Department of Public Health wants owners to understand the rules before the big day arrives.

dignasiak@hpe.com | 888-3657

“We are primarily concerned that bars fully understand the law,” she said.

Gillett said private clubs, which, by definition in the legislation, are nonprofit organizations such as a fraternal club, country clubs and cigar bars, will be exempt from the ban.

“You can’t just dump a hookah pipe on the end of your bar and be designated as a cigar bar,” she said. “And it isn’t simple for a private business owner to change their business plan to allow smoking.”

Greg Stephens, owner of Harrison’s Restaurant at 1807 N. Main St., said his biggest fear was that the ban would cause his business, which has a full bar, to lose money.

“We’re pretty nervous about it,” he said. “In the past, guests had their choice.

We went to the extent early on to install smoke eaters to get rid of the smell.”

Workers at Bimini’s Oyster Bar and Seafood Cafe at 2140 N. Main St. said they were nervous about the ban, but they’ve adjusted to the idea.

“I think a lot of our customers will be happy about this,” said manager Linda Buckner. “I’m sure there will be some that are upset, but it isn’t like we are the only place in town that’s banning smoking.”

GAS PRICE AVERAGES

–

The following are average prices for a gallon of unleaded gas in the Triad: • Tuesday: $2.56 • Last week: $2.59 • Last month: $2.43 • Last year: $2.04

National average: $2.62 SONNY HEDGECOCK | HPE

Sign reflects cost of a gallon of gas at RaceWay on N. Main Street.

Brendan Byrnes, public relations manager for the travel organization. “It’s still important to remember that they aren’t being driven by demand anymore.”

Byrnes said the price of a barrel of crude oil was being held between $78 and $80 due to the weak American dollar. Other factors, such as low interest rates and the national unemployment rate creeping into double

digits, also should keep the prices low, he said.

From the end of the summer travel season to Halloween, area gas prices rose from $2.35 to $2.64.

Prices have fallen by fractions of a penny every day this month, dropping 5 cents altogether, he said.

The average price for a gallon of regular unleaded fuel in the Triad was $2.56 on Tuesday.

“Prices should remain pretty stable through the holiday season,” he said.

“In terms of whether it goes up or down will largely depend on economic forecasts, the strength of the dollar and the price per barrel.”

Mike McCully, associate professor of economics at High Point University, also said he wasn’t expecting a large increase in

prices through Christmas.

“Households are still cautious about spending, including travel spending,” he said.

The sole factor that may drive gas prices up, he added, is further weakening of the U.S. dollar.

“As the U.S. dollar gets weaker, the price of oil tends to go up,” he said. phaynes@hpe.com | 888-3617

Despite the recent spike in prices, officials at AAA of the Carolinas say the holiday season shouldn’t drive up costs like it has in recent years.

“Thanksgiving is the nation’s busiest travel holiday, so we expect a slight increase in prices,” said

Shooting leaves two injured ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

HIGH POINT – A shooting Tuesday afternoon left two men injured.

Police were called to 400 N. Main St. in regard to a shooting. When they arrived, officers found two men with gunshot wounds. One victim, Christopher James Gibbs, 20, had been shot three times. He was taken to High Point Regional Hospital, where he

Bradley Lockhart (center), father of 5-year-old Shaniya Davis, and his sister Carey Lockhart-Davis (right) speak during a news conference Tuesday in front of his home in Fayetteville. Shaniya Davis was reported missing by her mother Nov. 10. The child’s body was found off a rural North Carolina road Monday. Lockhart’s neighbor and friend Scott Rollston (left) stands with them.

Slain N.C. child’s aunt says mother was neglectful FAYETTEVILLE (AP) – The aunt of a 5-yearold girl whose body was found off a rural North Carolina road said Tuesday that she had a hard time letting the girl live temporarily at her mother’s house because she believed the woman neglected her children.

Shaniya Davis had gone last month to stay for a while with her mother, 25-year-old Antoinette Davis, as part of an informal agreement with the father, Bradley Lockhart.

Lockhart’s sister said she helped raise the girl and was concerned about her moving in with her mother.

“Antoinette and I never really got along because of the way that she neglected her children,” Carey Lockhart-Davis said. “I feel robbed. I feel that Shaniya was robbed.”

Antoinette Davis is charged with human trafficking and felony child abuse.

Shaniya Her sister, Brenda Davis, has said she does not believe the charges and argued that Antoinette would not hurt her children.

Searchers discovered the girl’s body Monday, nearly a week after her mother reported her missing from a mobile home park in Fayetteville.

Fayetteville police said Tuesday that additional charges will be filed in the case, though they did not offer more specifics. An autopsy was being conducted to determine how Shaniya died.

“She was just learning how to ride her scooter,”

Lockhart said at an emotional news conference.

Also charged in the case is Mario Andrette McNeill, 29, who was accused of kidnapping Shaniya after surveillance footage from a Sanford hotel showed him carrying the girl. Authorities said McNeill admitted taking the girl, though his attorney said he will plead not guilty.

Lockhart declined to discuss details of the case Tuesday. He said Shaniya had spent most of her live living with him until he decided to give Antoinette Davis a chance with her daughter after she got a job and appeared to be overcoming financial difficulties. Shaniya moved to her mother’s house on Oct. 9.

Shaniya’s mother reported her missing a week ago, authorities said. Au-

thorities initially arrested a man described as Antoinette Davis’ boyfriend but then set him free after arresting McNeill. Information brought investigators 30 miles away from Fayetteville to a wooded roadside.

A dog trainer who was there when Shaniya’s body was found said Tuesday that searchers initially overlooked the area because they saw only deer carcasses in trash bags. Jeff Riccio of Tarheel Canine Training Inc. said his team returned to the area after getting information that Shaniya’s body might be near deer carcasses. The searchers found the body Monday afternoon underneath thick vines.

“It was nothing that anybody wants to see,” Riccio said.

S.C. panel to mulls ethics charges against governor MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SEREVICE

COLUMBIA, S.C. – A state panel will decide as early as today whether there is sufficient evidence to try South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford for violating state ethics laws in his travel and use of campaign money or to refer his case to prosecutors for possible criminal charges.

The nine-member State Ethics Commission, meeting behind closed doors, will weigh evidence against the governor

gathered by commission investigators. The panel’s conclusions could prove critical as to whether lawmakers pursue removing Sanford from office.

Republican state representatives filed an impeachment resolution Tuesday, charging fellow Republican Sanford with abandoning his duties in June when he left the state on a secret five-day trip to visit his mistress in Argentina.

But state House Speaker Bobby Harrell, a Republican, said that, based on

what he knows now, Sanford should not be forced from office.

“Unless the investigation contains new information about serious crimes or serious misconduct by the governor,” Harrell said in a written statement, “the information we have to date does not rise to a level to remove him from office.”

Ethics Commission Director Herbert Hayden said the agency could announce as early as this afternoon whether it will act against Sanford or if the

case against him has been dismissed.

The commission will review the evidence and could decide to charge Sanford with ethics violations, setting a date for the hearing. Sanford can choose to make that hearing public, which can include the presentation of evidence, witnesses and testimony.

The commission also could refer the allegations against Sanford to the state attorney general to determine if he has violated criminal law.

Police seek alleged bad breath robber TAMARAC, Fla. (AP) – Authorities in Florida are searching for an alleged bank robber with “notably bad breath” who asked a teller to fill an orange Halloween bag with cash.

The Broward County sheriff’s office says the man wore sunglasses when he held up the TD Bank branch in South Florida on Monday morning.

The man told a teller

to fill the bag with cash and motioned toward his waistband. The teller didn’t see a gun during the heist.

Authorities believe the man fled the scene in a white Honda Accord.

Tobacco companies find tax loophole WASHINGTON (AP) – When President Barack Obama signed a law expanding children’s health insurance this spring, he slapped tobacco companies with huge tax increases to pay for it.

It didn’t take long for the companies to find a multimillion-dollar loophole.

As soon as the new law took effect, raising taxes on roll-your-own cigarettes from $1.10 to $24.78 a pound, companies adapted. They all but shut down their roll-your-own brands and reinvented them under a less-restricted, less-taxed category: pipe tobacco. It’s still destined to be rolled and smoked, but it’s taxed at barely a tenth the rate, $2.83 per pound.

Pipe tobacco is normally too coarse and moist to roll into a cigarette, but nothing says it has to be.

In fact, the Obama administration says the only distinction between pipe tobacco and roll-your-own tobacco is how it’s labeled, effectively giving tobacco marketing executives an opportunity to shape their own tax rate.

Nearly overnight, rollyour-own brands like Criss Cross and Farmers Gold came off the shelves, replaced by pipe tobacco with the same names. The cuts may be slightly differ-

ent, but they’re suitable for rolling. Knowing this, retailers steer customers to the new products, sometimes with a wink and a nod, sometimes with outright advertising.

“They tried to make a product within the elements of the law that they could, in fact, market as pipe tobacco,” said Scott Bendett, owner of Habana Premium Cigar Shoppe in Albany, N.Y., which advertises the new pipe tobacco for hand-rolled cigarettes.

Tobacco companies say they’re just trying to find a legal way to stay afloat after being saddled with an enormous tax increase.

But both the Obama administration and some in Congress say they’ll try to come up with a distinction between the tobacco types, closing a loophole that could cost taxpayers hundreds of millions of dollars year.

“If the companies won’t do what is right, then we will,” said Sen. Frank Lautenberg, D-N.J., a reliably anti-tobacco voice in Congress.

Because the small, independent companies in the roll-your-own market are often overshadowed by the huge, publicly held cigarette companies, the sudden shift toward pipe tobacco caught research-

BRIEFS

Palestinians, U.S. criticize Jerusalem plan JERUSALEM – Israel moved Tuesday to approve a plan to build 900 more housing units in a Jewish neighborhood in the part of Jerusalem claimed by Palestinians, drawing harsh criticism from the United States.

The Jerusalem district planning commission officially deposited the plan, opening it to comments, objections and appeals from the public. Jerusalem city spokesman Gidi Schmerling said final approval was “many months” away.

Kurdish, Sunni demands may derail elections BAGHDAD – Iraq’s Kurds threatened Tuesday to boycott national elections, days after the country’s Sunni vice president threatened to veto the newly passed election law needed to hold the January vote.

Barely a week after the long-delayed legislation was passed, the hard-fought deal appears to be hitting a major roadblock, threatening to derail the country’s nationwide parliamentary elections and possibly slow U.S. plans to withdraw combat troops from Iraq.

Pirates get $3.3M ransom, free 36 hostages MOGADISHU, Somalia – As a Spanish warship looked on, a $3.3 million ransom was delivered by boat Tuesday and Somali pirates freed a Spanish trawler and its 36 crew members.

Spain’s prime minister did little to deny paying off the hijackers – one reason the lucrative attacks are on the rise. “The government did what it had to do,” Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero told a news conference in Madrid.

French boy takes rifle to school; no one hurt PARIS – A 13-year-old French boy stole his father’s hunting rifle and took it to school with the intention of shooting his teachers, but his family and police intervened before anyone was hurt, police said.

The boy – a student at a Roman Catholic school in Beauvais, 55 miles north of Paris – had posted an entry on his blog suggesting he wanted to commit suicide and carry out a massacre, police and gendarmes said. One police official suggested the boy may have been feeling desperate about his bad grades.

Ship with 100 tourists stuck in Antarctic ice MOSCOW – A Russian icebreaker carrying more than 100 tourists, scientists and journalists on a cruise around Antarctica was struggling to free itself from sea ice about 5 miles from clear water on Tuesday, a shipping company said.

But the company said no one was in danger, that some of the tourists were using the unplanned stop to take helicopter tours of the area, and that the biggest problem passengers faced was sunburn.

BEIJING (AP) – President Barack Obama and Chinese President Hu Jintao promised a determined, joint effort to tackle climate change, nuclear disarmament and other global troubles yet emerged from their first full-blown summit Tuesday with scant progress beyond goodwill.

After two hours of talks and a separate meeting over dinner the night before, the presidents spoke of moving beyond the divisiveness over human rights, trade and military tensions that have bedeviled relations in past decades.

That San Quentin Quayle is one fine bird To the delight of your many readers, my annual letter to the editor a couple of years ago included the promise that it would be my last letter. My one letter per year always appeared at the beginning of the high school football season and was written to praise and welcome San Quentin Quayle back for another season of “Picking the Winners.”

Unfortunately for your readers, because of Quayle’s amazing season this year I am forced to break my promise and write one more letter giving full credit where credit is due. In all honesty, I should also admit that I am doing this because of my fan club (actually both of them) and their constant persistent pestering for one more letter.

Ever since Quayle’s prognosticating career began in 1958, I have been his No. 1 fan. Each year I have been thrilled by not only his predictions but by his literary style which is certainly worthy of a Pulitzer Prize. But this year exceeds all 51 previous years. He has experienced 10-0, 10-1 and 10-2 weeks and has compiled an astronomical 82.6 winning percentage in this year’s regular season.

I heard it through the “grape wine” – and you heard it here – that he will soon be inducted into the N.C. Sports Hall of Fame.

Certainly, no one is more worthy of this honor than the Great Bird.

So let us all raise our glasses in toasting and congratulating San Quentin Quayle, the greatest of all time, truly the Personification of Prognosticating Perfection. Long may he live!

Among the many infirmities of age is omniscience.

OPINION What I most remember about the late Irving Kristol, aside Thomas from his wisdom – which is Sowell much rarer among intellectuals ■■■ than one might expect – was that I never saw him angry, either in person or in the media. And he lived in a time when there was much to be angry about.

Those of us who are getting along in years are unlikely to see another like him, and even those who are younger will be lucky if they do.

No statement is more unnecessary than the statement that the government should “do something” about some issue. Politicians are going to “do something,” whether or not something needs to be done, and regardless of whether what they do makes matters better or worse. All their incentives are to keep themselves in the public eye.

There is no point dwelling on all the foolish mistakes we have made in our lives. For one thing, it can be very time consuming.

One of the few advantages to the country in having Congress overwhelmingly in the hands of one party is that the lack of need to compromise lets the leaders of that party reveal themselves for what they are – in this case, people with unbounded arrogance and utter contempt for the right of ordinary people to live their lives as they see fit, much less the right to know as citizens what laws are going to be passed by their government. The question is whether voters will remember on election day in 2010.

Even if this country can survive intact and unharmed after the Obama administration – or, heaven help us, two terms of Obama – the gullibility that led to his being elected in the first place will still be there for some other slick demagogue to come along and get the power to put the American way of life, and even our physical safety, at risk again.

es, the expectations are high. Nothing short of academic excellence at every school in the Guilford County school district is acceptable.

But yes, reality says we’re not there yet.

In fact, 10 of Guilford’s schools (five of them in the High Point area) are classified – based on the state’s ABCs of Public Education – as low performing. That’s the most in any school district across the state.

Last year, nine schools were classified low performing. This year’s goal was to reduce that number to seven, however, it rose to 10. The 2012 target is zero low-performing schools.

That is a high expectation, indeed. But Guilford Superintendent Mo Green, Regional Superintendent Lewis Ferebee and Guilford schools officials are putting into place mechanisms to address the challenge. Creation of the Enrichment Region, currently containing nine schools, that Ferebee supervises will direct additional resources to those schools and their students in an effort to elevate those schools from that low-performing status.

This concept really is a simple one – focus extra attention on the areas that need it most. Historically, however, that has been an idea lost in the educational bureaucracy’s mentality that everyone should get the same. Such thinking was flawed years ago, and it certainly isn’t realistic in addressing the educational challenges our public schools face today.

Meeting the challenges also requires setting high expectations for students, teachers, parents and school administrators.

Green, Ferebee and school leaders are doing that. And they must keep those expectations high, because achieving academic excellence isn’t possible without them.

andom thoughts on the passing scene: If politicians stopped meddling with things they don’t understand, there would be a more drastic reduction in the size of government than anyone in either party advocates.

It was fascinating to see Barack Obama warning us not to leap to conclusions about the killings at Fort Hood, Texas – after the way he leaped to conclusions over the arrest of Henry Louis Gates, when he knew less about the facts than we already know about the massacre at Fort Hood.

My first column, more than 30 years ago, was titled “The Profits of Doom.” Recent news stories about the millions of dollars that Al Gore has made out of his “global warming” hysteria suggest that some things haven’t changed much in three decades.

Although the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation backs up bank accounts, a recent audit suggests that the FDIC does not have enough money in its own account to do its job. No doubt more money will be printed in Washington if necessary. But what this means is that even the record-breaking federal deficit understates the government’s real financial liabilities, because agencies like FDIC and the Federal Housing Authority are likely to need increased amounts of money to keep going.

An e-mail from a reader says that liberals like to take the moral high ground, even though their own moral relativism means that there is no moral high ground.

I doubt whether the man responsible for the massacre at Fort Hood will pay with his life for the lives that he took. He may well be free again someday. We can only hope that he does not get a hero’s welcome when he arrives in some terror-sponsoring country, the way the Lockerbie bomber did.

A recent study by the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights showed that, after the housing boom and bust, blacks, whites, Hispanics, Asian-Americans and American Indians all reduced their subprime mortgage loans. Only politicians seem not to have learned anything from the economic disaster and to persist in the reckless policies that brought it on.

Baseball has too many close plays and too many judgment calls to have wholesale instant replay that could add hours to a game. However, there is no reason why there can’t be some device to show automatically whether any

Hammering at Habitat is a real-life experience

THREE VIEWS

---

T

he other week, I had the opportunity to work at Habitat for Humanity for a few days with some of my classmates from High Point Christian Academy. I had to make a choice between a musical extravaganza in the spoils of Germany and Austria with the Greensboro Symphony Youth Orchestra ... and Florida (although I heard that it was a great trip).

Because we had not accompanied the other seniors in their bonding/missions trip down to Orlando, we had 20 service hours to complete. I had wanted to swing hammers at Habitat for a while, so working there was an easy decision for me.

Since everyone always seems to want to know a teenager’s newly instilled lessons after a “characterbuilding” experience, I’ll humor you and give you your “moral of the day.” Beyond the immediate realizations of my inadequacy as a vertical hammerer (I mean, really; hammering nails into ceiling rafters?) and my inexperience as a hammerer in general (20 of my whacks equaled three of my friend’s), I enjoyed the fact that I was able to help another person in need. I came home exhausted – thankfully with all my fingers intact – but excited about the day’s accomplishments.

The woman whose house we were building told us her story, which made it more of a blessing to help her and her daughter out in this hard time of their lives. She had once been in the medical field, but after being diagnosed with two incurable diseases, was subsequently unable to work. Despite this, she wasn’t bitter; she was thankful for everyone’s contributions.

It was a small house, but it was snug, and by the time we had gotten the siding on most of two of TEEN VIEW the walls, it had started to Julie look like the Fox beginnings ■■■ of a home.

We wrote our names on some of the rafters to immortalize our presence, or at least give a curious puzzle to whomever happened to be getting down the Christmas lights from the attic.

We knew where the little girl’s room would be, since her mother came in as we were doing some of that gravity-defying hammering (which for me included twisted nails, bent nails, how-inthe-world-am-I-gonna-getthat-in/out nails) in one of the rooms and cautioned us to make sure that everything was safe for her 4-year-old daughter. Amid spectating occasional games of “Rafter Hammer Hanging” and building a roaring, face-melting fire out of wood scraps (even if the melting stage lasted only a minute), we contributed to the domestic felicity of one family.

So the moral of the story is that you don’t have to be an experienced wood maniac (which I certainly am not) to help someone out at Habitat for Humanity, or to help someone in general. All that’s required is a willingness to help and a cheerful attitude (although for the best experience for all parties involved, decent handeye coordination is a plus).

“Doctor Makes Confession to City of Thomasville�

Dear friend, I want to give credit where credit is due. So perhaps a confession can help clear the air so there’s no misunderstanding. Before I talk about my confession, though, let me say a few other things ďŹ rst.

Let’s start with me. That’s me in the picture with my little girl, Kadyn. She’s got a lot more hair now, but I still think it is a cute picture. Eighteen years ago I started college, but I was overwhelmed by intense migraine headaches that were getting worse. They made it nearly impossible to study.

The medical doctors just gave me pills and said it would go away, but they didn’t. In my case they came on slowly, over years, but they worsened to the point where I could barely function. Most of my time was spent lying down in a dark room, taking handfuls of painkillers. I felt like giving up. A friend of mine convinced me to give a chiropractor a try.

The chiropractor did an exam, took some ďŹ lms, and then “adjustedâ€? my spine. The adjustment didn’t hurt, it actually felt good.

I got relief, and I ďŹ nally felt like myself again. It felt great to throw away that bottle of pills. In fact, it worked so well that not only did I ďŹ nish college but I went on to chiropractic school myself.

Let’s face it, as a society we are ‘hooked’ on drugs, both the illegal and the legal ones. Most people don’t know that it’s the legal ones that kill many times more people than the illegal ones.

The ‘quick ďŹ x’ mentality (not a true ďŹ x at all) is still common, but the good news is that things are changing. The medical profession and prescription drugs usually only deal with symptoms, and not the cause of sickness. Chiropractors have dealt with a cause for over 100 years now, and have never wavered. And guess what!

Now there are more visits to ‘alternative’ health care providers than ‘traditional’ ones.

Woman enters plea, apologizes in Smart case

It’s strange how life is, because now people come to see me with their migraine headaches.

Also they come to me with their: carpal tunnel syndrome, chronic pain, neck pain, shoulder/arm pain, whiplash from car accidents, backaches, tension headaches, numbness in limbs, just to name a few.

Here’s what some of our patients had to say: “I’ve improved about 90%. I can sleep all night without pain and can walk without my legs going numb.â€?- (Ray G., Kernersville) “For two years I was having difďŹ culty holding my head up [due to the] pain in my neck and upper back.

Dr. Kris actually listened to what I had to say about the problems I was having. He worked with me and actually made me feel like a person again without taking prescriptions. I can move my neck better now than I have been able to in years and the pain is almost nonexistent. I’ve also regained the feeling back in my right forearm after being numb for 2 years!�

(Stephen C – Thomasville)

Several times a day patients thank me for helping their health problems. But I can’t really take the credit. Did you know that your body is designed to always strive to heal itself? Sometimes, nerve interference gets in the way of that inborn striving towards health. So, I’m not a miracle worker; your body is the real miracle with the ability to heal itself.

My confession is that I’ve never healed anyone of anything. What I do is perform a specific spinal adjustment to remove nerve pressure, and the body responds by healing itself. We get tremendous results. It’s as simple as that!

Being a chiropractor can be tough, because there’s a host of so-called experts out there. They tell people a lot of things about my profession that are just plain ridiculous. But the studies speak for themselves, like the Virginia study that showed over 90% of patients who saw a chiropractor were satisďŹ ed with their results.

Although all people respond differently to care, that’s just incredible!

Forty-eight m i l l i o n Americans no longer have health insurance, and those who do have found that their beneďŹ ts are reduced. That’s where chiropractic comes in. Many people ďŹ nd that they actually save money on their health care expenses by seeing a chiropractor. Peer-reviewed research indicates that the immune system may be enhanced by chiropractic adjustments. Your immune system is the system that helps your body ďŹ ght colds, the u, so maybe you won’t be running off to the doctor as much once you start chiropractic. This is especially important if you are self-employed. And an entire week of care in my ofďŹ ce may cost what you could pay for one visit elsewhere.

When you bring in this article (by December 11th, 2009) I’ll do my entire new patient exam for $25. That’s with neurologic and orthopedic testing, x-rays .....the whole ball of wax.

This exam could cost you $195 elsewhere! Federal recipients excluded. IF YOU DECIDE TO PURCHASE ADDITIONAL TREATMENT, YOU HAVE THE LEGAL RIGHT TO CHANGE YOUR MIND WITHIN 3 DAYS AND RECEIVE A REFUND. My two assistants, Roseanna and Teresa, are really great people. Our ofďŹ ce is both friendly and warm and we try our best to make you feel at home. We have a wonderful service, at an exceptional fee. Our ofďŹ ce is called HEALTH ONE CHIROPRACTIC and it is at 13 Cloniger Drive, Thomasville (We are in the Food Lion strip behind Mr. Gatti’s).

Hitting the streets Homeless advocates host ‘camp out’

BY PAT KIMBROUGH ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – A High Point nonprofit that serves homeless youth is taking an unusual approach to draw attention to its cause.

I Am Now Inc. has invited the public to spend a night outside to simulate the experience of the 180 homeless people between the ages of 18 to 23 in Guilford County.

WANT TO GO?

–

“Sleeping Out for Homeless Youth in the Triad” is scheduled for Saturday at the Crossroads program of I Am Now Inc., 509 Ferndale Blvd. Discussions about homelessness and other information sessions are scheduled to begin at 8 a.m. Saturday at the site and continue throughout the day.

The event, billed as “Sleeping Out for Homeless Youth in the Triad,” is scheduled for Saturday at the site of the organization’s “Crossroads” house for young people who grew up in foster care but lack resources and support networks once they turn 18 and age out of foster care.

“Although we could never replicate the stress,

fear, pain, loss of pride and hope that often coincide with being homeless, this event is a symbolic way of raising awareness and teaching others what it’s like being homeless,” said I Am Now founder Travis Burrell.

“What better way to let people get a feel for what it would be like than in November, close to Thanks-

giving, being out there in the cold and not having a place to stay.”

Burrell said the organization has space at its Ferndale Avenue property to accommodate anyone who would like to “camp out” in cardboard boxes Saturday night. He said he also hopes to generate financial support for the organization, which, in addition to transitional housing, provides mentors and life-skills training geared towards self-sufficiency.

He said I Am Now is doing slightly better financially than it was this summer, when its leaders were contemplating closure because its budget dwindled to $500. A grant was

Steve Key, executive director of Open Door Ministries, said his agency does a count each January that usually finds 80 to 100 unsheltered people in the city. He said a group of High Point University students is planning a similar initiative over the winter as a fundraiser for Open Door.

“It’s been done before and it’s a way of helping people realize that there are people that sleep outside,” Key said. pkimbrough@hpe.com | 888-3531

Housing authority wants input on 5-year plan

BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – High Point residents are asked to participate in an online survey that will help shape housing and community development priorities in the city for the next five years.

The survey, which includes 49 questions on housing and community development needs, will help shape High Point’s five-year consolidated plan – a key component of the city’s application for federal funds from the U.S.

Department of Housing and Urban Development.

“It’s a HUD requirement that we do this every five years,” Beth Workman, High Point community development administrator, said of the survey. “We met with all the stakeholders who would have anything to do with housing or homeless prevention last week, but this is opening it up to all of the residents. Anybody and everybody please speak because ... the will of the people is how HUD wants the money spent.”

Preparation of the city’s

five-year consolidated plan is under way. City officials want all residents to become involved in the planning process, saying public feedback is essential to ensure the most critical needs are identified.

“We have attempted over the years to stay plugged in to the community,” said Michael McNair, director of High Point’s Community Development and Housing Department. “This process gives us a chance to take those relationships into account as we put this plan together.”

In order to be eligible for Community Development Block Grants and other HUD funding, the city of High Point is required to submit the five-year consolidated plan and annual action plan that explains goals for how the funding will be used.

The city anticipates that both the five-year consolidated plan for fiscal years 2010-14 and annual action plan for 2010 will be ready for public review on or about Feb. 15, 2010.

At that time, comments on the proposed plan

YOUR COMMUNITY. YOUR NEWSPAPER.

will be considered prior to adoption by the High Point City Council. The city expects its consolidated plan will be submitted to HUD on or before May 15.

Residents can access the survey by visiting www. zoomerang.com/Survey/ ?p=WEB229VN69D7YD through Dec. 31. Residents without Internet access can use one of the computers at the High Point Public Library, 901 N. Main St. dignasiak@hpe.com | 888-3657

Jean was the daughter of Charles Edward and Pauline Graham Webber of Salem, Virginia. She spent the earlier years of her life in Salem.

Dear Stuck: There’s no such thing as a “stupid” question, and your problem is one that is shared by many. A thank-you letter doesn’t have to be long and flowery. In fact, short and to-the-point can be more effective.

I have found that keeping a note pad handy when I open a gift and jotting down the first thought that comes into my head when I open the package is helpful. (Hint: Is it soft? Cuddly? Tasty? Something you had wanted but had not been able to find? Clever? If the answer is yes, then write it down.)

And by the way, Christmas isn’t the only gift-giving occasion when

Martin Nesbitt named Senate majority leader RALEIGH (AP) – The new state Senate majority leader said Tuesday he doesn’t expect dramatic policy shifts by Democrats even though the self-described populist is replacing the more business-oriented Sen. Tony Rand.

Sen. Martin Nesbitt, a 30-year veteran of the General Assembly elected unanimously Tuesday morning in a private caucus meeting, said his new role is to find consensus on issues that will help the party make good decisions for North Carolina while extending its 110-year grip in charge of the chamber.

“Nothing earth-shattering has happened,” Nesbitt, D-Buncombe, told reporters after the meeting at the Legislative Building. “I don’t think you’re going to notice much of a change with me coming in.”

Nesbitt will become the top lieutenant to Senate leader Marc Basnight, D-Dare, who’s been in charge of the Senate since 1993 and with Rand at his side since 2001.

Rand, DCumberland, announced two weeks ago he was leaving the Nesbitt Legislature to lead the state parole commission.

“I give you a true mountain man, a wonderful friend and a great North Carolinian,” Basnight said in introducing Nesbitt after the meeting.

There were no other announced candidates for the majority leader’s job, particularly since Basnight wrote an endorsement letter to the other 28 Democrats in the chamber two days after Rand’s announcement.

Nesbitt won’t have Rand’s dual role of Rules Committee chairman, which some senators chafed under in recent years because they said it gave Rand too much power. Basnight’s office said no one has been chosen for the position, which controls the flow of legislation to committees and the chamber floor.

One lane of traffic reopened major on N.C. coastal road RODANTHE (AP) – One lane of the major north-south thoroughfare on the southern end of North Carolina’s Outer Banks is open to traffic again after a nor’easter submerged one stretch.

The state Department of Transportation said the quarter-mile portion of N.C. Highway 12 north

of Rodanthe on Hatteras Island was partially reopened Tuesday afternoon. Crews placed stone over the broken pavement in the southbound lane and DOT said a portable traffic light would be in place to direct vehicles.

The road opening means the state planned

to halt a temporary ferry route between Rodanthe and the Dare County mainland after Tuesday.

Other ferry routes will resume normal schedules starting Wednesday.

Gov. Beverly Perdue traveled to the Outer Banks on Tuesday morning to view the storm damage.

ichard Parker had a wise father. His dad, Buddy, told him he was not allowed to join the family auto parts business until he worked at a few jobs of his own choosing. So, at the age of 15, Parker chose to be a disc jockey.

With few radio stations in the Triad in 1958 and few openings for disc jockeys, Parker decided to prepare diligently for his dream job.

ABOVE “I was AND inspired BEYOND

by George Lee on Patty Jo WAIR. Sawvel So, I took ■■■a tape recorder, record player and microphone and practiced every day in my upstairs bedroom and then studied my recordings,�

Parker said.

The following year, Parker won an essay contest and a four-week class at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in radio broadcasting. He also received the highest rating in a speech competition at Wake Forest University.

Armed with these awards in 1961, Parker was ready when WAIR held auditions for a DJ. He got the job, but it turned out to be more intimidating than Parker ever imagined. “One of my biggest blunders happened when I was reading an ad. I read, ‘This week at (the store) all women’s panties are half off.’ The more I tried to correct it the worse it got. After that, I pre-read everything,� Parker said.

A couple of the most memorable days on the air for Rick Gavin – Parker’s radio name – happened in 1962 when he worked for WTOB. Parker interrupted a live-broadcast Sunday sermon with, “Bulletin, bulletin, WTOB eyewitness news bulletin. Marilyn Monroe is dead.�

A few months later, on Oct. 27, Parker was called into the station as the Cuban missile crisis was breaking. He was flattered that he was asked to cover such an important event because America was on the brink of a nuclear war.

Parker realized only later that he was called because radio stations were prime targets, and no one else wanted to die.

After earning a business degree at Guilford College, Parker taught middle school for a couple of years then joined the family business.

By that time, he truly appreciated the value of his father’s business.

Parker ran the company for 10 years, and in 1988 he sold it. Parker then began the best job of his life as a public speaker.

In the end, father and son each lived their dream.

Community, police make High Point safer T

his column easily could begin, “Once upon a time there was a town in North Carolina that had so much violent crime it was known as ‘Little Chicago.’ � That town was High Point. High Point no longer is known for its violent crime but rather for its lack of it. What changed that image?

It began back in 1997 when former police Chief Louis Quijas was asked the question by a concerned citizen, “What are you going to do about ABOUT crime in TOWN High Point, Mary especially Bogest the West End?� Chief Quijas answered, “The question is ‘what are YOU going to do about it?’ We (the police) are always doing something about it. Now it is up to you, the community of High Point.�

The High Point community took that challenge to heart and the result was the formation of the High Point Community Against Violence (HPCAV) composed of volunteers to address violent crime in High Point and to assist offenders who choose to turn their lives in a positive direction.

I was so very fortunate to have attended the HPCAV Information and Support Luncheon held recently at the High Point Country Club. What I learned is that High Point has more “bragging rights� and I am so happy to share those with you.

Before I begin, here is the official description of the HPCAV, “The HPCAV was formed to reduce violent crimes in High Point and to keep our citizens safe from violent offenders. While recognizing the need for stern law enforcement action, we are also committed to offering offenders help to change their lifestyles such as job skills, education, housing and transportation.�

This is an example of how one of the many facets works. Known criminals are invited to a get-together known as a “call-inâ€? in a targeted neighborhood ‌ and, yes, they come but they do get a surprise. That surprise is the group of High Point citizens, area clergy and police who basically tell them, “We are sick and tired of drugs and crime. We know who you are. You have one of two choices ‌ either quit or go to prison. If you choose to turn your life around, we will do everything to help you.â€? Chief Jim Fealy explained that there is evidence of these “known criminalsâ€? to put them in prison. That evidence â– â– â–

MARY BOGEST | HPE

The Rev. Jim Summey, executive director of High Point Community Against Justice, stands with Gretta Bush, president of the board of directors.

Summey testified to the success of the High Point Violent Crime Initiative to the U.S. Senate Committee on the Judiciary. roundups. Yet, so very often the results were short-lived only to see every crack-house, the street corners and most of the girls back in business within one of two weeks.

Citizens complained, tempers flared and frustration ran amuck creating a very unhealthy community.�

The community decided to take a stand and this resulted in West End Ministries and more community meetings leading to the creation of HPCAV. Keep in mind that there was a “changing of the guard� so to speak at the High Point Police Department when Chief Fealy arrived in January of 2003. Chief Fealy immediately took the challenge of the West End to heart and the West End Drug Initiative was founded in 2004. Summey in that judicial address said, “I highly credit Chief Fealy on being bold enough and committed to exploring every avenue to develop a way to help the citizens of High Point live in a better and safer environment.� I have on many an occasions seen

and observed Summey and Fealy together and I think that I can say that through their mutual admiration they have also forged a deep friendship.

Invite them to speak to your group.

I should also give credit to former Harvard Professor David Kennedy who came up with this idea of approaching crime through interaction of the community. However, and I mean a BIG “however� it was High Pointers and the High Point Police Department who had the courage to implement it. The rest of the country has taken notice and High Point’s Violent Crime Task Force in conjunction with the HPCAV have become the ideal role “model� for 20 major cities across the country including Chicago, Atlanta, Houston and Baltimore. High Point’s best kept secret is not a secret to the rest of the world. The John Jay College of Criminal Justice in New York recognizes the High Point “Strategy to Eliminate Drug Markets� as the new industry standard. It has been profiled by the Wall Street Journal

and the Today Show. The nationally-recognized High Point Crime Program as it is referred to by the North Carolina Crime Control and Public Safety Agency has garnered prestigious awards such as The National League of Cities Gold Award and the Innovations in American Government Award from Harvard University, which received over 1000 entries. High Point even beat our NASA for this award.

These awards are our bragging rights but even more important are the changes in people’s lives.

As Rev. Summey told the Judiciary Committee “Kids now walk to

church. People sit on their porches and swing in backyard swings.

People are planting flower beds and are tending them. There is a sense of relief that has lasted because people who were once strangers due to fear now meet on the sidewalks, go to neighborhood meetings and are working to maintain relationships with law enforcement. This way is a way that brings our the very best of people because it is people living and doing their best to help each other.�

includes selling drugs to undercover agents.

The High Point community and the High Point Police Department working together has become the ultimate model of 21st century policing looked up to by law enforcement agencies all over the world. What are the statistics, you ask? Chief Fealy noted that since its inception in 1997, High Point’s population has grown by 30 percent but the violent crime rate has decreased by 25 percent. “That doesn’t happen by accident,� he added.

The primary neighborhood targeted has been the West Side spearheaded primarily by Rev. Jim Summey, founder of West End Ministries who now serves as the first Executive Director for HPCAV. Last year Rev. Summey addressed the United States Senate Committee on the Judiciary. He told them about the blue collar history of the West End and its transformation of a neighborhood where “people worked, worshipped and recreated in this little niche of town� to a neighborhood where, “residents lived in fear and in a ‘lock-down’ mentality. Gun fire rang out much too frequently.

Street robbery and muggings of every nature were everyday events.�

Prostitution was rampant. “The police utilized every traditional method of policing and deterrence available including drug raids, drug sweeps, prostitution stings and

Bronchiectasis is a cough that won’t stop

D

ear Dr. Donohue: For two years, I had a cough that was constant. I didn’t feel all that sick, and I saw a number of doctors without getting an answer. I also tried numerous medicines, without any relief. I just changed doctors, and the new doctor started from square one with a chest X-ray. The results suggest bronchiectasis, and I am scheduled for a lung scan.

I am not familiar with this.

Will you fill me in? – R.K.

BLONDIE

The “bronchi” of bronchiectasis (BRAWN-keyEK-tuh-siss) are the airways, the breathing tubes.

“Ectasis” means those airways are stretched out of shape. That makes them reservoirs for thick, sticky sputum. It’s a condition somewhat like chronic bronchitis, the cigarette smoker’s ailment, but somewhat unlike it, too. It has nothing to do with smoking. More than 100,000 Americans have it.

Its principal sign is a lasting cough that brings up viscid sputum. Shortness of breath from little effort is another sign. Affected people are prone to repeated respiratory infections.

What causes it? Some get it from their genes, a family affair. Others have a defect in their immune system. For a few, it’s associated with another illness. Rheumatoid arthritis is an example of one of those illnesses. Most, however, develop it from a past severe lung infection or infections.

A chest X-ray often can

show the changes of bronchiectasis, but a highresolution computed tomogram HEALTH (a special lung scan) Dr. Paul provides Donohue the best and ■■■ clearest evidence of it.

Most patients are able to contain the problem by nipping respiratory infections quickly. That means antibiotic treatment. Some must go on a daily or three-times-weekly schedule of antibiotics to prevent infection. In a few instances, surgical removal of sections of affected lung all but cures the problem.

Dear Dr. Donohue: Why do I get frequent fever blisters in my mouth?

They last for days and then go. Does this have anything to do with irritable bowel syndrome, or nutrition or lack of nutrition? – Anon.

Fever blisters are also called cold sores. They’re caused by the herpes virus type 1, HSV-1. Almost 80 percent of adults are hosts to HSV-1, and, of that number, up to 40 percent have recurrent outbreaks. The virus stays with people for life. A fever blister usually occurs at the bottom and side of the lower lip. At first it is a number of small blisters on a red base that eventually form a golden crust. Treatments of it include oral acyclovir, valacyclovir, famciclovir and

acyclovir cream and penciclovir cream.

You have sores inside your mouth. Those sound more like canker sores.

Have your doctor examine them next time they appear. They call for a different approach.

Dear Dr. Donohue: Please explain osteochondromatosis and creatinine. I have the first problem in my knee. I am a chronic kidney patient, and creatinine seems to be of interest to my doctors.

– M.O. Osteochondromatosis is nests of cartilage that sprout in the lining of a joint, often the knee.

Those islands of cartilage can become infiltrated by calcium. Some might break loose to cause pain and joint locking. If they do, they can be removed.

The cause is not known.

There’s an inherited form of osteochondromatosis, but that’s not your kind.

All humans produce creatinine from creatine, a muscle component. They produce the same amount of it every day. It is filtered by the kidneys into the urine. A rise in blood creatinine, therefore, indicates that the kidneys are not working well. It’s a valuable test of kidney function.

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.

Don’t blame fast food: Mummies had heart disease ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) – You can’t blame this one on McDonald’s: Researchers have found signs of heart disease in 3,500-year-old mummies.

“We think of it as being caused by modern risk factors,” such as fast food, smoking and a lack of exercise, but the findings show that

these aren’t the only reasons arteries clog, said Dr. Randall Thompson, a cardiologist at the Mid America Heart Institute in Kansas City.

He and other researchers used CT scans, a type of X-ray, on 22 mummies kept in the Egyptian National Museum of Antiquities in Cairo.

Authorities: Mom gave up baby to suspected dealer SALT LAKE CITY (AP) – Authorities say a Salt Lake City woman told them she gave her 9-month-old daughter to a suspected drug dealer because she was homeless, addicted to methamphetamine and unable to care for the girl.

Salt Lake County Sheriff’s Lt. Don Hutson said deputies found the child Monday while searching a home as part of a drug investigation.

He said a 38-year-old woman arrested on suspicion of distributing methamphetamine said she had been caring for

the child for a week. He also said the woman had a document allegedly signed by the girl’s 23year-old mother transferring guardianship.

This Thanksgiving, let us do the math – you do the cooking

BY J.M. HIRSCH AP FOOD EDITOR

P

reparing Thanksgiving dinner is enough of a pressure cooker, never mind having to do on-thefly math to get it right. Here are all the numbers you need to have a safe, worry-free and delicious Turkey Day dinner.

All serving estimates are generous to allow for plenty of seconds and leftovers.

HOW BIG? For turkeys under 16 pounds, estimate 1 pound per serving (this accounts for bone weight). For larger birds, a bit less is fine; they have a higher meat-to-bone ratio. But if your goal is plenty of leftovers, aim for 11⁄2 pounds per person whatever the turkey’s size.

• For 8 people, buy a 12-pound turkey • For 10 people, buy a 15-pound turkey • For 12 people, buy an 18-pound turkey • For 14 people, buy a 20-pound turkey.

THE BIG THAW? The safest way to thaw a frozen turkey is in the refrigerator. You’ll need about 24 hours per 4 to 5 pounds of turkey. You also can put the turkey in a sink of cold water. Change the water every 30 minutes, and plan for about 30 minutes per pound.

THE BRINE Never brine a turkey for more than about 8 to 10 hours. Much longer and the meat will be too salty. Always keep the bird refrigerated during brining.

If the turkey is too big, an ice-filled cooler stored outside is fine, too.

THE ROAST Roasting temperatures vary widely by recipe. Some go at a slow and steady 325 degrees. Others crank the heat to 400 or 425 degrees for the first hour, then drop it down for the rest of the time.

However you roast, use an instant read thermometer inserted at the innermost part of the thigh (without touching bone) to determine when your turkey is done. The meat needs to hit 165 degrees for safe eating, though some people say thigh meat tastes better at 170.

The following roasting time estimates are based on a stuffed turkey cooked at 325. Reduce cooking time by 20 to 40 minutes for turkeys that are not stuffed. And remember, a crowded oven cooks more slowly, so plan ahead if your bird needs to share the space.

• 12-pound turkey: 3 to 4 hours at 325 • 15-pound turkey: 4 to 41⁄2 hours at 325 • 18-pound turkey: 41⁄2 to 5 hours at 325 • 20-pound turkey: 5 to 6 hours at 325

THE REST The turkey should never go directly from the oven to the table. Like most meat, it needs to rest at least 20 minutes.

THE SIDES • Carrots: a 1-pound bag makes 4 to 5 servings • Cranberry sauce: a 12-ounce package of fresh cranberries makes about 21⁄4 cups of sauce; a 16-ounce can has 6 servings • Gravy: plan for 1⁄3 cup of gravy per person • Green beans: 11⁄2 pounds makes 6 to 8 servings • Mashed potatoes: a 5-pound bag of potatoes makes 10 to 12 servings • Stuffing: a 14-ounce bag of stuffing makes about 11 servings

Fruit-filled Cranberry Pear Frangipani Pie is a light dessert to finish a Thanksgiving feast perfectly.

And for dessert, count on a light and fruity pie

BY ALISON LADMAN FOR THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

T

his beautiful pie gets a red hue from the cranberry sauce folded into the almond paste filling. Almond paste, which is distinct from marzipan, can be found in the grocer’s baking aisle.

“Frangipani” is the name of the cream-style filling made from the almond paste.

Cranberry Pear Frangipani Pie Start to finish: 1 hour 15 minutes (30 minutes active) Servings: 8 For the cranberries: 12-ounce package fresh cranberries

1 2 1 4

⁄ cup sugar ⁄ cup water

For the filling: 9-inch prepared pie shell, raw 8-ounce can almond paste 1 ⁄3 cup sugar 1 ⁄4 cup (1⁄2 stick) butter 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour 3 eggs Two 15-ounce cans pear halves packed in juice, drained To prepare the cranberries, in a medium saucepan over medium, combine the cranberries, sugar and water. Bring to a boil and cook until the cranberries have popped and the mixture is juicy, about 5 minutes. Set aside to cool.

Heat the oven to 375 degrees.

YOUR COMMUNITY. YOUR NEWSPAPER.

Use a fork to prick the bottom of the pie crust. Line the crust with foil and fill with rice, beans or pie weights. Bake for 10 minutes, then empty the weights and discard the foil.

Set aside.

Meanwhile, in a food processor combine the almond paste and sugar. Turn the processor on, then add the butter, flour and eggs, one at a time. Transfer the mixture to a large bowl. Use a silicone spatula to fold in the cranberry sauce.

Arrange the pear halves in the pie crust, slicing them as needed to mostly cover the bottom of the crust. Pour the cranberry-almond paste mixture over the pears. Bake until set and golden, about 45 minutes. Cool before slicing.

The Southbound Model Railroaders will host its annual open house Dec. 5, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., and Dec. 6, from 1 to 5 p.m. The event will be at the group’s clubhouse, located at 120 Park Ridge Circle, off of Country Club Road in WinstonSalem.

Club members will be on hand and to answer questions and operate trains on the layout featuring the Southern and Norfolk & Western roads from circa 195255. The layout consists of more than 600 feet of track.

Southbound Model Railroaders is an association of model railroad enthusiasts. In addition to maintaining and operating the main layout in the clubhouse, the group engages in other activities, including train shows, open houses, support and maintenance of Brenner Children’s Hospital layout, involvement in local schools, scout and senior activities, instructional clinics for members, and occasional field trips to observe prototype railroading operations.

You can stabilize your position and ease your stress by taking action. ★★★★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Change may seem like a good idea but when you take a look at the facts and figures you will see a discrepancy. Love is heating up. Emotions are going to be tough to control and an outlet is needed to avoid anxiety. ★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): It’s up to you to maintain your position and control of whatever situation you face. Now is not the time to back down or give in. Take credit for what you do and don’t be afraid to brag a little. ★★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): Learning will be a big part of your day and, if you can put the information you acquire to good use, you will excel.

Love is in the stars, so plan a little celebration that will help move things along personally. ★★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You should be spending time with people who have something to contribute, not your faithful followers. A partnership may be offered but, before you go down that road, question what this person can bring to the table.

Don’t sell yourself short. ★★★★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Don’t jeopardize friendships or partnerships. Meddling or getting involved in emotional spats will backfire. Keep any changes you want to make to a minimum for now, working quietly behind the scenes. ★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Communication will be the key and your creativity and ingenious way of explaining what you want to do will enable you to drum up the support you need. Don’t hold back.

Travel plans should be in the works. ★★★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Organize your day to fit the absolute most into every waking moment. Idle time will lead to anxiety, impulsive actions and mistakes that will take forever to undo.

You can impress someone important and satisfy your needs. ★★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Don’t let someone else do the work and collect your rewards. You will have an opportunity to make some money or come into it quickly because of a decision you made. Foolish spending based on the information of others will reverse your good fortune. ★★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): A change in the way you earn your living looks beneficial and should be implemented as soon as you can get a contract or negotiate the deal that best protects you. Working with someone who has the same goal will pay off. ★★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Don’t give in to demands. Your intellectual approach coupled with your inventive mind will produce substantial interest from those looking to invest. Don’t let anyone upset your plans using unfair emotional ploys. ★★★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Ultimatums will backfire and greater restraint will be necessary to avoid arguments that will get you nowhere. Don’t mess with rules and regulations unless you are ready to pay the price. ★★

TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES

You’re South in a matchpoint duplicate event, and North properly raises your 2NT to 3NT. At IMPs or party bridge, five clubs might be best; at matchpoints, you risk playing at a higher-scoring game.

You win with the first spade with the king. Before you try the clubs, cash three high diamonds to get information. West discards a heart.

West had four spades – he led the deuce – and two diamonds. With five hearts, he’d have led a heart against 3NT, so he has at least three clubs.

You take the ace of clubs and finesse with dummy’s jack, making six.

DAILY QUESTION

HARD TO PLEASE

You hold: S Q 9 5 3 H A K J 7 D 10 8 5 2 C 2. Your partner opens one club, you respond one heart and he bids one spade.

What do you say?

This deal comes from my most recent book, “Frank Stewart’s World of Bridge.” When I was declarer, my partner proved hard to please. He told me if I’d begun by cashing three spades and six clubs, I’d have squeezed East in the red suits to take 13 tricks. (Maybe he thought my clubs were A-8.)

For a copy of FSWOB, postpaid and inscribed, send $25.95 to PO Box 962, Fayette AL 35555. Profits go to local charities.

ANSWER: Raise to three spades, inviting game. If your queen of spades were the ace, you’d have the values to bid four spades yourself.

True, your hand seems to be worth about 13 points including points counted for a singleton once you find a trump fit, but shortness in the first suit partner bid is worth less than usual.

East dealer N-S 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.

My son has swine flu â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a daily journal Before you read...

----

Bruce Sallan is not a medical doctor, and this column is not intended to be considered medical advice. Everyone should take every precaution against the H1N1 virus, consult a doctor if there are any symptoms, and go to the CDC Web site for further information: http://cdc.gov/h1n1flu/sick.htm.

W

e just went through the swine flu with our older son, Will. We didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t panic or allow the hysteria of the msm (mainstream media) to scare us. His first reaction was simply, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Darn, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m going to miss Halloween.â&#x20AC;? I believe our media have become hysteria mongers, as well as all too often focusing on their agenda vs. objective reporting.

They devote way too much time to subjects unworthy of so much coverage, such as the balloon boy or the tragic deaths of celebrities.

With swine flu, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been deluged with scare reports from the media, ignoring the fact that each year tens of thousands of Americans die of the regular flu.

As with AIDS, the panic is over-wrought and generalized to scare everyone when the reality is there are more at-risk groups for just about every such illness.

I kept a daily journal of our experience, which follows. I hope itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s helpful in presenting a more realistic view of this strain of flu. I still caution everyone to be careful, see their doctors, and otherwise be smart about washing hands.

Day One â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Will is sent home from

school as the nurse called to say he had a mild fever.

We put him to bed, took his temp, and called our pediatrician. He had a 101 fever, a slight cough, but otherwise seemed fine.

The pediatricianâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office A DADâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S said to give him Motrin, fluids, and see if he still POINT had a fever tomorrow OF VIEW and, if so, to bring him in. Later that evening, his Bruce temp was just 100 and he Sallan was feeling pretty good. â&#x2013; â&#x2013; â&#x2013; Day Two â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Will woke up feeling fine and actually wanted to go to school. We thought better and kept him home and in bed. Later, when his temp was still over 100, we took him to the doctor. Twenty minutes after they took a swab, we got the diagnosis â&#x20AC;&#x201C; he had swine flu. They prescribed a Z-pac (five-day dose of antibiotics) and TamiFlu. By now, he was complaining of some aches and pains and a general soreness (and about missing Halloween.) My wife told him that we were going to have to cancel the party sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d been planning for weeks because of his infection and he actually quieted down and realized he wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the only one affected â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a pretty amazing realization for a teenager.

Day Three â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sleeping in late, so we havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t taken his temp yet. Was playing his guitar when I went in to check and it was normal. When I asked him how he was feeling, he replied with teen contempt, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I feel fine,â&#x20AC;? which really meant, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Why do I have to stay in my room, why canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t I go out for Halloween?â&#x20AC;?

Day Four â&#x20AC;&#x201C; This morning Will apologized for being moody and grumpy. He doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t understand why he has to continue staying home when heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s feeling fine, just four days after getting sick and three days into his five-day course of meds. I told him, per his doctor, that after the five days of meds, if he goes another 24 hours with a normal temp, then he can return to school. The funny part is heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so bored; he actually wants to go to school. His temp is still normal.

Resignation has set in. He knows heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not going to talk his way out of his room and back to school. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sort of like the stages of grieving, according to Elizabeth Kubler-Ross. My son was in denial, then anger, and now is in acceptance.

Day Five â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Last night, Will got a surprise visit from his girlfriend, her step-dad and a friend. They talked from outside his room through a window for a few minutes. It was both a boost and a reminder of his â&#x20AC;&#x153;in prisonâ&#x20AC;? status.

One amazing thing has happened with his forced lock-down time. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s actually reflected on plans for the future.

A teenager reflecting on anything? As heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s always loved music, demonstrated real talent, as well as developing a lot of knowledge, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s decided he wants to go to a music school and learn production.

While he still wants to be a â&#x20AC;&#x153;rock star,â&#x20AC;? this sort of mature alternative planning is quite the anomaly for him.

Today, his temperature is still normal.

His energy is high. If this is the worst swine flu throws us, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll consider this family extremely lucky. This afternoon, he even went out to the garage and played drums for a while.

Tomorrow is his last day of meds. If heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s got a normal temp for another 24 hours, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s back to school for him and this episode will have been easier than a lingering cough or cold. Amazing. And, as yet, no one else in the house has it, though one of our dogs came up lame for a while (sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s verrrrry old).

A friend of his just got diagnosed with swine flu. They wanted to hang out together as theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re both already infected.

Are they nuts? Nope, just teenagers.

Day Six â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The drama awaits us of whether heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have a temp today? He finished his course of meds and today will determine if he can finally leave his confinement. He was all ready for school when I came in to take his temperature.

I sat with him, patiently awaiting the results. Normal. Off to school.

So, what did we learn from our bout with the swine flu? Simply, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t listen to our vice president, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t listen to our media, and DONâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;T worry about it if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re the average person. Yes, if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in one of the risk categories, be extra careful.

Also, and we did this constantly and no one else has so far contracted it, have hand sanitizer everywhere in the house.

You canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t overdo it.

Finally, and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m dead serious, if you have a child that is stuck home with swine flu and ends up like my son, with negligible symptoms, your biggest problem will be his boredom. Help him or her out with books, CDs, DVDs, etc. If they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have a computer or TV in their room, move one in just for the duration.

And, most of all, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t panic.

Deacons loom large for HPU

BY GREER SMITH ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER

WINSTON-SALEM – Oral Roberts and East Carolina couldn’t find a way to keep forward Al-Farouq Aminu in check while he led Wake Forest to lopsided wins in its first two games of the season. Now, it is High Point University’s turn to take a shot.

The Panthers take on the Demon Deacons tonight at 8 in Joel Coliseum facing the reality that the 6-foot-9 Aminu will have a decided matchup advantage against forwards no taller than 63 and 6-4 after getting 25 points against ORU and 23 against ECU facing players more his size.

HPU coach Scott Cherry opted for a three-guard starting lineup, with 6-2 Eugene Harris and 6-3 Nick Barbour on the wings, in the season-opening 104-62 win against UNC Pem-

broke. Even in trying to go bigger against Wake, Cherry doesn’t gain much size if he turns to 6-3 David Singleton or 6-4 Dave Campbell.

“I don’t know if anybody can (keep Aminu in check),” Cherry said. “The hard part is going to be the matchups.

I may have to find a way for David Singleton and Dave Campbell to guard him and

slow him down a little. I hope our speed and athleticism forces them to move him to the four and maybe play a little smaller, which will help us.”

Aminu is just part of a decided height advantage the Deacons enjoy. Wake started 7-0 Chas McFarland at center and 6-11 Tony Woods at power forward in both games. HPU’s only player of that size is 6-11 center Cruz Daniels. Athletic 6-6 freshman Corey Law is the Panthers’ starter at power forward.

“The number one thing is they are huge,” Cherry said. “That’s first and foremost. We’re going to have to make them take tough shots and then block out and rebound. We’re going to have to try to use whatever size we have to make it difficult to get secondchance points. “ gsmith@hpe.con | 888-3519

WHO’S NEWS

---

AP

Wake Forest forward Al-Farouq Aminu sails as he gets ready to throw down a dunk during the Deacons’ 89-58 win over East Carolina on Sunday at the Greensboro Coliseum.

Pair of Tigers sign diamond deals T

he coaches at South Carolina have told DeSean Anderson he might get a few looks at second base as he fights for playing time as a freshman. Seems pro scouts like his potential on the infield as well.

As for Tigers baseball coach Donnie Maness?

“Ragsdale loves him as a center fielder,” Maness said.

Next season in Greenville, East Carolina plans to give Ben Fultz a serious shot at center field.

SPORTS He plays second base for the Tigers.

Steve “We joke about that all Hanf the time,” Fultz said with a ■■■ laugh. “Coach Maness said he might switch us around some this season if we’ve got a big lead in some games.”

The places where the Ragsdale seniors signed National Letters of Intent on Tuesday was no laughing matter. The Gamecocks own 10 straight trips to the NCAA Regionals, making them one of seven teams in the nation to reach the regional round every year this decade. Coach Ray Tanner has built a powerhouse in the Southeastern Conference that plays in a brand new $35-million stadium that seats 9,000.

Pirates coach Billy Godwin saw his team advance to its third NCAA Super Regional after winning the Conference-USA title last spring. ECU has made 10 regional appearances in the last 11 years.

“It’s pretty awesome,” Maness said. “One of the things we take a lot of pride in and

HPE | DON DAVIS JR.

Pens in hand, Ragsdale athletes who made college choices official on Tuesday included (left to right) Ben Fultz (ECU), Briggs Kennington and Jacob Erickson (both Lenoir-Rhyne for lacrosse) and DeSean Anderson (South Carolina). take a lot of joy from is kids being able to play at the next level. You can’t do much better than playing at those two places.”

Tuesday’s ceremony was a long time coming for Anderson and the end of a whirlwind few weeks for Fultz.

Anderson, who also happens to be busy leading the unbeaten Ragsdale football team in the playoffs, committed to USC last September. He planned all along to continue in baseball rather than football – Anderson is only 5-foot-9 – and narrowed his list of schools to ECU, North Carolina, Virginia Tech and the Gamecocks.

His first visit to Columbia wowed him, especially Carolina Stadium.

“The atmosphere they have for South Carolina baseball – baseball down there is considered one of the major sports, not just football and basketball,” said Ander-

son, who plans to major in sports medicine with a physical education background.

“That convinced me a lot. I’m looking forward to playing in the SEC and hopefully getting a College World Series ring. Year in and year out, it’s one of the top three conferences in college baseball.”

Fultz actually committed to Liberty last summer before experiencing second thoughts. When he officially de-committed, ECU was among the first colleges to contact him. Fultz knew a lot of people at the school, his planned physical therapy major was offered and he loved his visit to Greenville. Two weeks ago, he gave the Pirates another verbal before making it official Tuesday.

“It’s a big blessing,” Fultz said. “All the hard work we’ve gone through, it’s finally paying off. We’re happy we’re going to the schools we love.”

At Ragsdale, both players started as freshmen and made instant impacts. Fultz batted .400 and hit three homers that year.

As a sophomore, Anderson showed off his blazing speed in the outfield and crashed into the wall, forcing him to miss a game or two. That play eventually set the stage for a concussion his junior year of football that made him miss much of that season.

Last spring, both batted .400 and stole 17 bases, with Fultz clubbing three homers and Anderson ripping nine doubles.

“DeSean can hit for big power – he can play big and small,” Maness said. “And people think Ben is just a power hitter, but he can flat-out run. They both play a lot bigger and stronger than what they are.” shanf@hpe.com | 888-3526

Blue Devils pan 49ers 101-59 in NIT Tip-Off DURHAM(AP) — Mike Krzyzewski settled in at the podium between his two veteran guards, gesturing first toward Nolan Smith and then toward Jon Scheyer.

Duke went up by double figures to stay before Charlotte hit its first field goal, and its top three scorers combined for 61 points — two more than the entire 49ers’ roster.

“Those three guys on the

perimeter don’t need a bucket to get them going — they are ready to go, and they’re really good basketball players,” Krzyzewski said. “The three of them, 61 points, that’s a pretty good night.”

Shamari Spears had 20 points to lead the overmatched 49ers (2-1).

HIT AND RUN

T

he race for the BCS national championship remains wide open, with six undefeated teams still in the mix.

While Florida, Texas, Alabama, Texas Christian, Boise State and Cincinnati jockey for poll position and try to figure out ways to hack into the mystical BCS computer system, one perennial BCS power is on the outside looking in.

We won’t have Southern Cal to kick around in this season’s BCS bowl parade.

The Trojans suffered a 55-21 shellacking at the hands of Toby Gerhart and the Stanford Cardinal last week.

USC (7-3, 4-3 Pac-10) suffered its most lop-

79 39

sided setback since a 51-0 home loss to Notre Dame in 1966. The 55 points are the most ever allowed by the Men of Troy.

The Trojans’ seven-year reign atop the Pac-10 is over, as are streaks of seven straight 11-win seasons and BCS bowl bids. Coach Pete Carroll suffered his first November loss at USC after going 28-0 in the month during his nineyear tenure.

But at least the Trojans played a major role in boosting the Heisman Trophy hopes of Gerhart, my pick as the best player in college football this year.

Gerhart torched the Trojans for 178 yards

and three touchdowns, giving him 1,395 yards and 19 touchdowns on the season. He averages nearly 140 rushing yards per game and can enhance his Heisman hopes with solid home efforts against Cal and Notre Dame to end the year.

At 7-3 overall and 6-2 in the Pac-10, Stanford figures to make its first bowl trip since 2001 to a nice destination.

For Southern Cal, 2009 marks the end of a remarkable seven-year run at or near the top of the national summit.

YOUR COMMUNITY. YOUR NEWSPAPER.

– MARK MCKINNEY ENTERPRISE SPORTS EDITOR

When the phone rang, Zack Greinke let it go — he didn’t recognize the number. Only after listening to the voice mail did he call back and find out he’d won the American League Cy Young Award.

The Kansas City Royals ace easily beat out Felix Hernandez for the honor Tuesday after a spectacular season short on wins but long on domination. Winning left the extremely shy Greinke with mixed emotions.

“Back in Orlando, I haven’t really got a whole lot of attention from people, which has been nice,” he said. “So I hope it doesn’t get that way, where everyone is like, ‘Oh, hey, Zack, hi.”’

He’d prefer to remain anonymous when he’s not on the mound.

He’s not looking forward to being introduced at banquets as “Cy Young Award winner Zack Greinke” for the rest of his life.

“In that way, it’s kind of like a negative for me,” he said.

It’s been quite a turnaround for Greinke, who led the AL in losses in 2005 and quit baseball for six weeks the following year.

HPU inks three men’s basketball recruits ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

HIGH POINT – High Point University officially announced addition of three players to its 2010-11 basketball recruiting class on Tuesday.

Head coach Scott Cherry said that guard Justin Cheek of Ardrey Kell High in Charlotte, 6-foot-8 forward Travis Elliott of Lauderdale Lakes, Fla. and 6-8 Forsyth Country Day center Georges Massoda have signed National Letters of Intent to join the Panthers in the fall of 2010.

The additions of Elliott and Massoda give HPU a much deeper frontcourt for next season. Cheek will be a threat on the perimeter who can also go to the basket.

“We’re really excited about the three guys we have committed,” said Cherry.

“They’re three tremendous basketball players. Not only that, all three are highcharacter kids from great families and successful, winning programs who have been coached at the high school level by some great coaches. Those are the types of kids we’re trying to build this program with.”

Cheek is a 6-foot-3, 175-pound shooting guard who can play on the wing. Last season, he averaged 15.1 points and 3.2 rebounds per game at Ardrey Kell High School, leading the team to a 21-9 record and an appearance in the NCHSAA 4A western regionals for the first time in school history. He was named All-SW 4A Conference, team MVP and earned AllTournament honors at the First Charter Classic last season.

He has been a starter every season for coach Mike Craft and is the second-leading scorer in school history entering his senior year. He set the school record for points in a game with 32 against Myers Park and has scored 28 points in a game twice.

Cheek’s sister, Joy, was a McDonald’s All-America selection in high school and is currently a senior forward at Duke.

His father, Boris, is an NFL referee.

“Justin was the guy we identified over the summer who could really fill our need on the wing,” said Cherry. “He’s athletic and can score. One of the things that impressed me when I watched him in AAU games was he defended every possession. He’s also very skilled and athletic on the offensive side of the floor.

He can shoot it, put it on the ground, can hit mid-range jump shots, and he can get all the way to the rim and finish above the rim.”

Elliott comes from Boyd Anderson High School in Southern Florida. Last season, he averaged 8.6 points and over 12 rebounds per game as the team went 25-3. The team was ranked as high as No. 1 in the Florida Class 6A poll and No. 14 in the ESPN Rise national poll before being upset in the regional quarterfinals.

Three of Elliott’s teammates last season went on to play NCAA Div. I basketball: Martavious Irving (Kansas State), Bryan Bynes (George Washington) and Cedric Smith (Savannah State). During Elliott’s sophomore year, the team was state runner-up.

“Travis is another big-body who can finish in and around the basket and brings a physical presence that we need,” said Cherry. “If you look at our roster now, we don’t have a lot of size.

The one guy who really has size – Cruz Daniels – is graduating. Travis comes from Boyd Anderson High School with a tremendous program under coach Eugene Richardson. Travis has been coached well and forced to work hard on the floor. Travis will fill a big need for us.”

Massoda, originally from Cameroon, came to the United States last year and joined the team at FCD. He averaged 7.5 points, 8.3 rebounds and 1.2 blocks per game, shooting 45 percent from the floor.

In the first two games this season, Massoda averaged 10 points and 10 rebounds and was named to the Calvary Tip-Off All-Tournament team. Massosda chose HPU over UNC Asheville “Georges is a tremendous person.

He’s a very good basketball player and he’s developing at a very fast rate,” said Cherry. “He’s another kid who has high character and works extremely hard in the classroom and on the floor. He’s someone who is going to represent this University and this program in a very good way. He brings energy and effort every time he steps on the floor.”

The 2009-10 season will be the last at HPU for Daniels, a 6-foot-10 center and HPU’s only player taller than 6-7, and senior guard Eugene Harris.

Cheek, Elliott and Massoda will join HPU’s seven returning guards and three returning forwards next season.

Hokies pull away from UNCG THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ACC BLACKSBURG, Va. — Jeff Allen recorded a double-double and Virginia Tech broke open a tie game with an 11-0 run midway through the second half en route to a 59-46 victory over UNCGreensboro on Tuesday night.

UNC-Greensboro tied the game at 38 on a basket by Kyle Randall with 10:48 remaining. But Allen and Malcolm Delaney sparked Virginia Tech’s 11-0 run, with Delaney scoring seven of those points.

Delaney’s 3-pointer with 6:39 left gave the Hokies a 49-38 lead and the Spartans got no closer than nine points the rest of the way.

Allen finished with 14 points and 10 rebounds for his 20th career double-double. Delaney added 17 points for Virginia Tech (2-0) despite going just 6-for-16 from the floor. The Hokies shot just 37.5 percent.

Blue Devils’ QB shuff le at Miami a concern

BY BRYAN STRICKLAND ENTERPRISE DURHAM BUREAU

DURHAM — Duke coach David Cutcliffe slowly has accepted the fact that he might have to burn freshman quarterback Sean Schroeder’s redshirt at some point during the final two games of the regular season, but starting quarterback Thad Lewis is determined not to put the Blue Devils in that position.

“I only have two games left in my career, so I’m not going to pass up an opportunity to play,” said Lewis, who hopes to play every snap when he heads home to face Miami on Saturday. “I’m not going to sit on the sidelines and watch my team play without going out there to help.

“I’m pretty sure I’ll be all right going into the rest of the games. Obviously, I might have to be.”

Lewis made those comments after Saturday’s 49-10 loss to Georgia Tech, a game in which backup quarterback Sean Renfree tore the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee. Lewis didn’t take part in Tuesday’s weekly news conference, instead using the time to rehab his own set of injuries, including a painful thigh bruise that contributed to Renfree being in the game in the first place.

Cutcliffe said Tuesday that Schroeder is working as the team’s second-string quarterback, with punter Alex King working as the No. 3. Cutcliffe said if Lewis had to sit out a series or so, he’d go with King, but if Lewis had to come out longer, he’d go with Schroeder.

“Sean Schroeder and I have talked about it, and he understands the circumstance,” said Cutcliffe, who has warmed up to the idea after initially saying Satur-

day that he wouldn’t use Schroeder. “I’ve got two quarterbacks returning to the program. One of them has a limited number of snaps, and one of them has none.”

It’s not a question of whether Schroeder is ready to play. When Lewis missed about three-quarters of preseason practice because of an ankle injury and the swine flu, Schroeder got plenty of snaps in practice behind Renfree.

“That put him on an accelerated path,” Cutcliffe said. “He’s a bright young man, so he would operate our entire gameplan. He understands pass offense and is extremely mobile. I like his poise. He’s a smooth ball handler. He’s got a little knack back there. He’s a little slick.”

King, a sophomore walk-on from Winston-Salem who saw his first college action as a punter on Saturday, has played quarterback for the scout team, has

BCS adds coordinator position

Miami’s Harris coy about injury CORAL GABLES, Fla. (AP) – Jacory Harris walked into the Miami football meeting room Tuesday, his hands stuffed into the front pocket of his green hooded sweatshirt.

He stood behind a lectern for 16 minutes, taking questions.

Coyly, Harris kept his hands – and whatever brace he may or may not be wearing on his throwing one – out of view, in that pocket the entire time.

“I will be playing Saturday,” Harris insisted.

“No problem.”

For the 21st-ranked Hurricanes, that’s what matters right now.

Miami (7-3, 4-3 Atlantic Coast Conference) closes its home and conference schedules Saturday against Duke (5-5, 3-3), a team that Harris threw for four touchdowns against last year and ran for a fifth as the Hurricanes rallied from a 10point deficit in the third quarter to win 49-31.

That game was a coming-out party for Harris, and given the way it’s been going for him lately – a four-interception effort in a crucial loss to North Carolina last week gave him 16 picks on the season, tops

Notre Dame coach Chariie Weis leaves the field after his team’s loss to Pittsburgh last Saturday. That left the Irish at 6-4 entering this week’s game against UConn.

Weis: No word yet on 2010 SOUTH BEND, Ind. (AP) – Charlie Weis is going about his job as Notre Dame coach as normal, saying he doesn’t think a decision about his future has been made.

“Oh no, I don’t think that any decision’s been made because I probably would know, and I don’t know,” Weis said Tuesday. “With that being said, it’s full speed ahead to UConn, full speed ahead to Stanford and full-speed ahead to recruiting. That’s exactly the way we’re approaching it.”

Athletic director Jack Swarbrick has said he will evaluate the program after the season. Last season Swarbrick caught up with Weis during a recruiting trip, meeting in San Jose, Calif., three days after the season ended.

Swarbrick agreed to bring Weis back for a fifth season because they agreed on what steps needed to be taken to restore the program to prominence.

“The question you’re ultimately asking yourself is: Is he in a position to help direct the changes in the program, to help steer it back to where he and I really want it to be?” Swarbrick said at the time.

This past summer, Swarbrick said there is a list of factors by which Weis will be measured, beyond wins, losses and graduation rates. Swarbrick said there are certain statistics he pays attention to more than others. He wouldn’t disclose those statistics, but used third-down conversion rates on both offense and defense as examples.

The Irish are 53rd in the nation offensively in converting on third downs and 55th defensively. Overall, the Irish rank well in most categories offensively and are below average in most areas defensively. In five seasons under Weis, the Irish have never been strong defensively.

This season, the Irish are 83rd in total defense, giving up 391 yards a game.

The only time the Irish ranked lower was in 1956: 103rd during a 2-8 season.

The Irish (6-4) head into their game Saturday against Connecticut on a twogame losing streak that has left Weis with a 35-25 career record, a .583 winning percentage. That’s the same record Bob Davie was fired with and the same winning percentage Tyrone Willingham was fired with.

Jerry Glanville leaves Portland State PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) – Jerry Glanville has resigned after three years as head coach of the Portland State Vikings.

This past season, Portland State went 2-9 overall and 1-7 in the Big Sky Conference. Over Glanville’s tenure the Vikings went 9-24.

Glanville, who coached in the NFL and was known for his 3-4 defense as well as a penchant for wearing black, was not available for comment.

Portland State athletic director Torre Chisholm said he and Glanville agreed on his resignation late Monday night. He praised Glanville for his commitment.

“He brought an energy level and a sense of character to our program,” Chisholm said. “It was infectious.

Glanville was hired by the Vikings in 2007 after two seasons as defensive coordinator at Hawaii under June Jones.

He was head coach of the Houston Oilers from 1986-89 and the Atlanta Falcons from 1990-93.

GRIFFIN OUT AS MURRAY STATE COACH MURRAY, Ky. (AP) – Murray State athletic director Allen Ward says football coach Matt Griffin won’t be returning next season.

Ward says he decided a change would be an advantage for the western Kentucky school. He says a search will begin immediately.

Ward said in an announcement Monday that Griffin has improved the program’s foundation, but says the program “took a step back this season.”

UNC’s Burney takes ACC honor GREENSBORO (AP) – North Carolina cornerback Kendric Burney earned an award from the Atlantic Coast Conference after breaking one of the league’s records.

Burney was named one of the ACC’s weekly award winners with Clem-

The Carolina loss was particularly hard. Not only did it knock Miami down nine spots in the AP Top 25, it essentially ended whatever chance the Hurricanes had of playing in the Bowl Championship Series.

“It’s a learning process,” Miami coach Randy Shannon said. “And he’s involved in that now.

Do I think he’ll go in a shell? No. He comes right off the sideline and tells you right away what he did wrong. Sometimes, some quarterbacks just take chances that they’re not supposed to.”

True, but also, a season of pounding is taking a toll on the slight sophomore.

Harris has been sacked 27 times, tied for eighthmost in the nation, with 18 of those coming in the last five games alone.

GREENSBORO (AP) – BCS officials selected Bill Hancock to become the first executive director of college football’s postseason system.

BCS coordinator and ACC commissioner John Swofford announced Hancock’s promotion from administrator to his new position on Tuesday.

Hancock will replace the BCS coordinator, starting next year. The coordinator position has rotated on a two-year basis between conference commissioners since the Bowl Championship Series was implemented in 1998.

But the job has become too big for someone to handle in a part-time role.

At times, commissioners found the responsibilities of their full-time gigs conflicted with the duties of BCS coordinator.

“Bill has been a tremendous asset to the BCS since beginning his involvement in 2005,” Swofford said in a statement.

“With the continued growth and interest in the BCS, it became evident to all of us that an Executive Director was necessary to coordinate what has become a full-time slate of daily responsibilities.”

Swofford’s two-year term as coordinator will end Jan. 7. At that point Hancock, who has been working as an administrator and spokesman for the BCS since 2005, will assume most of the coordinator’s duties.

Big East commissioner John Marinatto would have been next in line to take over the role of BCS coordinator.

“I’m thrilled and humbled to move into this new role,” Hancock said. “I love the special place college football occupies in our society and I am proud of the great benefits the BCS has brought to student-athletes, college football fans and others. It’s an honor to be working on behalf of this wonderful game.”

worked extensively with the running game and has gone through various drills alongside the other quarterbacks.

“Alex is a pretty savvy youngster and a good athlete,” Cutcliffe said. “We do a little period at the end of every practice called an ‘opportunity period’ where we’re working young receivers and all the redshirt players, and he throws in that. I always try to keep a guy like that around our program, and he’s a good one.”

While Cutcliffe believes in Schroeder and King, he would rather keep both on the sidelines. Lewis needs 240 yards to break Ben Bennett’s career yardage record, and the Blue Devils need Lewis if they’re to keep their postseason hopes alive.

“He’s really, really tough,” Cutcliffe said. “He’s missed very little time, and he’s a fierce competitor.”

Delhomme: future of no-huddle uncertain CHARLOTTE (AP) — Jake Delhomme talks of being comfortable in it. Steve Smith raves about it. DeAngelo Williams is a fan, too.

The no-huddle offense was a hit in Carolina on Sunday, producing two touchdown passes from Delhomme to Smith in a victory over Atlanta. But Delhomme hinted Tuesday that folks hoping it will become a regular part of the offense may be disappointed.

Blame left tackle Jordan Gross’ broken ankle and the cramming going on ahead of Thursday’s game against Miami.

“I enjoy it, but to say you can do that throughout the course of the whole season, I don’t think you can do that,” Delhomme said. “And certainly losing Jordan, I don’t know how much we can really dive into it, especially on a short week.”

The new wrinkle has Dolphins coach Tony Sparano on notice, however. He acknowledged they had to adapt a game-plan they had already begun to put in place last week with only three days off between games.

“It presents some challenges, particularly in a short week,” he said.

The Panthers have had the no-huddle in the playbook since training camp, but had used it almost exclusively in the 2-minute offense. That changed on the second series Sunday, when the Panthers surprised the Falcons with Delhomme calling his own plays at the line of scrimmage. It produced touchdowns on the first two drives as Carolina built a 21-10 halftime lead.

Smith called it “controlled chaos,” while Williams, who rushed for 92 yards, said it opened up the run game.

“It showed we’re not just a one-dimensional team,” he said. “We can pass the ball.”

It also marked the third straight game Delhomme went turnover-free after 13 interceptions in the first six games.

“It’s satisfying to see Jake get his confidence back,” said receiver Muhsin Muhammad, who had six catches for 91 yards in his return from a knee injury.

It puts Delhomme his element. He breaks the huddle with a certain number of plays — he wouldn’t say how many — and makes the call based on what he sees from the defense.

“Try to be a coordinator,” Delhomme said. “Try to call whatever plays we have called, and we have a wide variety we can choose from. The good thing is we can get into a lot of different formations. Guys can play multiple positions, so that’s always good.”

Smith and Muhammad have experience playing both the X and Y receiver positions. Carolina’s tight ends can also block from the fullback spot. It allowed the Panthers to keep the Falcons off-balance.

“I feel very comfortable in that situation,” Delhomme said.

But the win came at a cost. Gross was carted off the field in the second quarter with a broken right ankle.

The Panthers moved veteran Travelle Wharton from left guard to Gross’ spot. Second-year pro Mackenzy Bernadeau replaced Wharton.

Bills fire Jauron after 3-6 start ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) — Dick Jauron was fired by the Buffalo Bills on Tuesday, when the coach ran out of time to build a contender or come up with a way to fix an offense that sputtered even with the addition of Terrell Owens.

Bills owner Ralph Wilson announced Jauron’s dismissal, saying he made the decision “for the best interest of his team.” The move came two days after the Bills (3-6) fell further out of contention following a 41-17 loss at Tennessee.

A replacement coach has yet to be hired as the Bills prepare to play at Jacksonville on Sunday.

Jauron’s successor is expected to come from the current staff and be hired on an interim basis only. Candidates include assistant head coach Bobby April and defensive coordinator Perry Fewell.

The Bills are averaging just over 15 points from an offense that ac-

quired Owens this offseason but remains unsettled at quarterback. The Jauron defense is riddled with injuries, and has allowed an NFL-worst 173 yards rushing a game.

Jauron leaves with a 24-33 record over threeplus seasons, and went 5-14 in his past 19.

“I really don’t have anything to say,” was all Jauron would say when reached on his cell phone by The Associated Press.

Buffalo, which has not made the playoffs since 1999, has now gone through four coaches since the end of the 2000 season, when Wade Phillips was dismissed.

Gregg Williams was not rehired after his threeyear contract expired, while Mike Mularkey abruptly resigned after a front-office shakeup following the 2005 season.

Dolphins’ Brown sidelined

AP

Cleveland wide receiver Josh Cribbs is carried on a backboard after suffering an injury on the final play of the Browns’ 16-0 loss to the Baltimore Ravens on Monday night.

Mangini remorseful about last play CLEVELAND (AP) — Following wide receiver Josh Cribbs’ scary lastsecond injury, Browns coach Eric Mangini said he wishes he would have handled the final play of Monday night’s game differently.

Cribbs was taken to a hospital after he was flattened on a last, meaningless play in Baltimore’s 16-0 win over the Browns.

Mangini called it a “competitive situation” and

said Cribbs improvised on the pass play by lateraling the ball before being hit by Ravens defensive end Dwan Edwards.

Mangini said Cribbs did not sustain a concussion. He’s optimistic that his best playmaker will be available for Sunday’s game in Detroit.

Mangini would not say if he thought Edwards’ hit was dirty.

He did defend Browns quarterback Brady

Quinn’s questionable chop block on Ravens linebacker Terrell Suggs following an interception. Mangini said he believed Quinn’s assertion that he was going after cornerback Chris Carr, who made the pick in the third quarter. Quinn was penalized 15 yards for a low block and could face a league fine.

Ravens linebacker Ray Lewis accused Quinn of a cheap shot.

OWINGS MILLS, Md. (AP) — The Baltimore Ravens on Tuesday cut kicker Steve Hauschka, who missed a 36-yard field goal and had a conversion blocked in Monday night’s 16-0 win over Cleveland.

No replacement was immediately chosen. Former New York Jets kicker Mike Nugent and former Dallas Cowboys kicker Billy Cundiff worked out for the Ravens last week.

As a rookie last year, Hauschka handled kickoffs as the backup to 40year-old Matt Stover.

Coach John Harbaugh decided against inviting Stover to camp this summer because he was tired

of having two kickers on the roster.

But after winning the job from Graham Gano in training camp, Hauschka didn’t come close to being as a consistent as Stover, one of the most accurate kickers in NFL history.

Hauschka missed four field goals in nine games, including a potential winning 44-yarder against Minnesota and 38-yarder in Cincinnati that would have gotten Baltimore within a touchdown with six minutes left.

The clincher came Monday, when Hauschka’s 36yard try sailed wide left at the end of a 12-play drive in a scoreless game.

“We entered the sea-

son knowing that we would have to go through some growing pains with Steve,” Ravens general manager Ozzie Newsome said. “That happens with most new kickers in the NFL. But, for where we are as a team today, we need more consistent production from our kicker.”

Baltimore (5-4) lost four of five before beating Cleveland. The Ravens will next face the unbeaten Indianapolis Colts, who have Stover as their kicker.

Stover, who signed with the Colts on Oct. 14, is 6 for 6 on field goal attempts with a long of 40 yards.

Chief’s Bowe finds much deeper trouble Ravens cut kicker after misses in win

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Dwayne Bowe, in and out of his coach’s doghouse all year, is in much deeper trouble now.

Kansas City’s third-year wide receiver was suspended without pay for four games Tuesday for violating the NFL’s policy against performance-enhancing substances. Neither the Chiefs nor the league would make further comment and Bowe’s agent, Todd France, did not return calls seeking comment.

His loss is a blow to the Chiefs (2-7), who have struggled in coach Todd Haley’s first year and been particularly weak at wide receiver, signing them off the street throughout the year and then discarding

them and trying others.

The only constant at the position has been the talented but exasperating Bowe. Although the former first-round pick out of LSU has abundant ability, he’s made a habit of coming up with a spectacular catch on one play only to drop an easy ball or make a silly mistake the next.

He was one of the first players to run afoul of the new regime when Haley replaced Herm Edwards this year. Although he was clearly the most talented passcatcher on the team after the trade of tight end Tony Gonzalez to Atlanta, he dropped as low as third-team on the depth chart and spent much of the summer fighting his way back.

DAVIE, Fla. (AP) — Miami Dolphins running back Ronnie Brown will miss Thursday night’s game at Carolina because of an injured right foot, and his status for the rest of the regular season is uncertain.

The Dolphins’ leader rusher was to see a specialist for further evaluation, coach Tony Sparano said Tuesday.

Brown was hurt in Sunday’s win over Tampa Bay. Ricky Williams will replace Brown and start for the first time this season. He’ll also become the primary triggerman if the Dolphins run the wildcat formation.

“Who knows? May not even run it,” a coy Sparano said. “Never know.”

The game is the first Brown has missed since his season-ending knee injury in 2007.

At 32, Williams has rushed for 558 yards and is averaging a career-best 5.3 yards per carry.

“The guy takes tremendous care of himself,” Sparano said. “This guy has worked like crazy for the year and a half that we’ve been here.

Watching him work the way he works, you wouldn’t think he’s 30plus years old.”

The 1998 Heisman Trophy winner and 2002 NFL rushing champion has avoided the media for much of this season but spoke to them briefly Tuesday about starting.

“It’s my job right now,” he said.

Tight end Anthony Fasano (hip) didn’t practice Tuesday for Miami (45). Guard Justin Smiley (shoulder) and safety Gibril Wilson (hamstring) were limited, as were two reserves, nose tackle Paul Soliai (ankle) and linebacker Erik Walden.

NEW YORK (AP) – Stocks finished an erratic session mixed Tuesday as higher commodity prices lifted energy and materials shares.

The meager advances were enough to push stocks to new 13-month highs, though more shares fell than rose at the New York Stock Exchange. The market had zigzagged for much of the day on mixed news from retailers and on industrial production.

A rebound in the dollar after three down days kept investors’ appetite for stocks in check. A long-term weakening trend in the dollar since March has been lifting commodities prices and shares of U.S. exporters, which benefit from stronger foreign demand for their goods when the dollar falls.

SOUTH AMERICA / CANADA

Higher oil prices lifted energy stocks, and trading volume remained light.

Traders focused on retailers’ earnings reports for insight into one of the market’s biggest worries: how much consumers are spending. “Despite the dramatic rally in the stock market, we still see the consumer operating at recessionary levels,” said Uri Landesman, chief equity strategist and senior portfolio manager at ING Investment Management in New York.

According to preliminary calculations, the Dow Jones industrial average rose 30.46, or 0.3 percent, to 10,437.42.

The broader Standard & Poor’s 500 index rose 1.02, or 0.1 percent, to 1,110.32, while the Nasdaq composite index rose 5.93, or 0.3 percent, to 2,203.78.

Foreign Exchange The dollar rose against other major world currencies, pausing a long-term dive.

The Fed’s low interest rate policy—which it intends to keep for an extended time—has undermined the greenback.

man Rep. Edolphus Towns.

The New York Democrat said June testimony by Bank of America CEO Ken Lewis and documents obtained by the panel show it was the bank that forced the merger.

But the committee’s ranking Republican, Darrell Issa of California, said the panel’s work “has become an apparent cover-up of the continuing activities of the Obama administration,” es-

pecially of current Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner.

Geithner was chairman of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York at the time of the merger in December 2008.

The committee’s inquiry is focused on the $45 billion federal bailout of Bank of America and its hastily arranged acquisition of Merrill last year.

The former top attorney of Bank of America testified he wasn’t involved in craft-

ing the bank’s agreement to let Merrill pay billions of dollars in bonuses to its employees. Timothy Mayopoulos, who was general counsel at the second-largest U.S. bank until December 2008, also said he played no role in deciding whether to disclose the bonuses to Bank of America shareholders.

“To my recollection, I had no role in this issue,” Mayopoulos told the hearing.

“That was done by others.”

House Ag committee blasts Obama proposal “It wasn’t the futures markets that caused the financial meltdown this country experienced a little over a year ago,” said Oklahoma’s Frank Lucas, the committee’s top Republican. “Why is there a rush to change

how futures markets are regulated?”

Vonage to refund $3 million to customers RALEIGH – Internet phone pioneer Vonage will issue $3 million in refunds to dissatisfied customers in North Carolina and other states under an agreement with 32 state regulators announced Monday.

The refunds are part of a settlement over complaints alleging that the company refused to cancel service after a trial period.

About 65 people in North Carolina complained to the state attorney general. Those customers were typically owed $100 to $150, said attorney general spokeswoman Noelle Talley.

Oil wavers as stronger dollar stifles rally NEW YORK – Oil prices wavered Tuesday as a rising dollar kept crude from moving higher, after fresh economic data gave mixed signals on whether demand for oil will increase.

By late morning, benchmark crude for December delivery was down 43 cents to $78.47 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange.

The contract rose $2.55 to settle at $78.90 on Monday.

Factory production dips in October WASHINGTON (AP) – Factory production declined in October, signaling that U.S. consumers and businesses remain cautious in their spending and suggesting a sluggish economic recovery.

At the same time, the weak economy is keeping inflation in check.

Wholesale prices rose less than expected last month.

Factory production represents the biggest portion of industrial output. Overall, industrial production rose 0.1 percent last month, less than economists had expected. The only bright spot in the Federal Re-

serve’s report Tuesday was activity at electric and gas utilities.

A rebound in auto production, driven by the government’s now-defunct “Cash for Clunkers” rebate program, has boosted industrial production in recent months. Car production sagged in October.

Even though overall industrial production rose for the fourth straight month, growth has slowed considerably. Production at factories fell 0.1 percent last month after a 0.8 percent increase in September.

It was the first decline since June.

Costco nixes Coke products amid dispute ATLANTA (AP) – Costco customers may have to look elsewhere for CocaCola products now that the retailer has stopped carrying them because the pair are fighting over prices.

The public squabble between one of the nation’s largest wholesale club operators and the world’s largest soft drink maker is likely to fizzle quickly. But it reveals real tensions as retailers and product makers square off on prices.

As shoppers continue to grapple with the recession, retailers want to win their

favor by giving them low prices. But that has been creating tension between product makers like CocaCola Co., who are working hard to maintain profit margins while meeting retailer demands.

Typically such negotiations take place behind the scenes, but once in awhile, a public dispute erupts.

“Beneath this surface of harmony, it’s a dogfight out there,” Gerry Khermouch, editor of Beverage Business Insights, said Tuesday at an investor meeting in Atlanta.

Fed reduces length of emergency loans

AP

Nya Carter shops at a Target store in Philadelphia on Oct. 15.

Target profit climbs 18 percent CHICAGO (AP) – Target Corp.’s third-quarter profit climbed 18 percent, the cheap chic retailer said Tuesday, as it cut costs and did better in its credit-card business. Still, it offered a conservative outlook for the holidays.

The low-price chain, which has been locked in a discounting fight with competitor Wal-Mart Stores Inc., said it expected markdowns and sales to drive business this season. While those tactics

DILBERT

can draw big crowds, they also cut into profits.

Target was terse in its assessment.

“In light of the current and projected economic environment and expectations for a highly promotional holiday season, Target remains cautious about fourth quarter performance and is planning conservatively in both business segments,” executives at the company said in a statement.

Wal-Mart and Kohl’s have issued similar forecasts.

Target’s third-quarter profit was helped by its ongoing cost-cutting efforts along with better sales in its stores – which climbed 1.4 percent – and better profit from its credit card business.

The company earned $436 million, or 58 cents per share during the three month period that ended in late October. Last year, it earned $369 million, or 49 cents per share.

Revenue rose 1.1 percent to $15.28 billion.

WASHINGTON – The Federal Reserve announced Tuesday that it will reduce the length of loans banks can draw from its emergency lending program since the worst of the financial crisis has passed.

The maximum loan amount will be cut to 28 days, from 90 days, starting on Jan. 14, the Fed said.

It took the action “in light of the continued improvement in financial conditions,” the central bank said.

During the financial crisis, the Fed had lengthened the maximum maturity of such emergency loans.

Home Depot earnings fall 8.9% NEW YORK – Home Depot Inc.’s third-quarter earnings fell 8.9 percent as the weak housing and renovation markets continued to hurt demand, the nation’s largest homeimprovement retailer said Tuesday.

Cost cuts helped the company top expectations and led it to raise its full-year earnings guidance, but Home Depot did not raise its revenue outlook.

Investors sent shares down 4 percent amid growing concern that expense cuts can only boost earnings for so long before revenue needs to improve.

CEO Frank Blake said the company is still in “less bad” rather than positive territory for sales .
