HIGH POINT – Shoppers at stores in and around Oak Hollow Mall couldn’t wait to activate the sound of cash registers ringing on Black Friday.

Real firs still mean Christmas for many families BY DAVID NIVENS ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – Jeanette Valentine went out Friday to find the perfect Christmas tree for her family. She found her first North Carolina Fraser fir under a tent at the Carico lot on N. Main Street beside the Honda motorcycle dealership. “I never had a real tree like this before when I was growing up,” said Valentine, a High Point grandmother who came to the lot with members of her extended family, including her young grandson Nathaniel. “Wow, this is nice,” Valentine said. Members of the extended Nelson and Carico families have been bringing freshcut firs from the mountains

to High Point for 40 years. “We find that many people are coming back to the field trees,” said Barry Carico, “and younger people are interested too.” Lisa Carico said she expected a good sales year despite the weak economy. This year, customers can register to win a prize. “We’ll probably go back to Sparta on Sunday to get more trees,” said Barry Carico. “I think we sold 20 trees this morning.” Christmas tree growers farm about 35,000 acres of land across North Carolina. “Because we grow these trees, we can control the prices,” said Barry Carico. “Last year, we sold every tree we had in High Point. We’ve had the same prices for 11 years.”

HIGH POINT – An emergency shelter in High Point plans to use a $15,000 grant award from the Lincoln Financial Foundation to enhance the services it provides for women in crisis. West End Ministries will use the funds to cover some of the cost of case manage-

ment and after-care services for Leslie’s House, a program of the ministry. The 21-bed facility aims to help its residents move from homelessness to permanent housing. WEM Executive Director Judy Mendenhall said Leslie’s House averages 18 to 20 clients a night from all over Guilford County, some as young as 18. She said similar programs in

N.C. TREES

Harvest: North Carolina’s 2009 Christmas tree harvest should top 5 million trees from more than 1,500 growers. The state was second in the nation in cash receipts from Christmas trees in 2008, with sales of $100 million.

William Valentine helps Nathaniel Williams choose an appropriate tree at the Carico’s tree lot on N. Main. The Carico lot also offers a selection of white pines. “Buying a North Carolina tree helps this state,” said Lisa Carico. Agriculture Commissioner Steve Troxler said this week during an appearance at the Piedmont Triad Farmers Market that the state had one of its best tree crops ever with good selection and quality. “We had good rain and good weather,” said Lisa Carico. “It was not too hot.” Spillman Tree Farm at Sophia is selling only

cut trees this year. “It will be two more years before we have another crop of trees for people to cut,” said Beverly Spillman, “We see many of the same people every year who come to us for a real tree.” To care for cut trees, experts suggest placing them in a sturdy stand with a water basin as soon as possible. Cut trees also offer recycling into mulch or as habitat for wildlife and fish after the holidays.

Types: More than 96 percent of N.C. Christmas trees are Fraser firs, which are grown in the mountains. Farmers in the Piedmont and Coastal Plain grow pines, cedars and other varieties. Prices: About the same as last year, starting at $30 for a 5- to 6-foot cut tree. Choose-and-cut farms: Go to www.ncfarmfresh.com or request a directory by calling the Marketing Division at the N.C. Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services at (919) 733-7887.

Greensboro typically don’t accept clients until they turn 21. Leslie’s House caters to women without dependents. “We try to work with them with whatever they need,” Mendenhall said. “Sometimes they come to us without any identification – no driver’s license, no birth certificate, so we have to get that for them. We help them get in school

if that’s what they need. We help them get a job if that’s what they want. We do some classes for them, several things like that. So this will really help us cover some of the cost of our case management.” The life skills classes for clients include topics such as budgeting, time management, resume writing and alcohol and drug education.

LAS VEGAS REVIEW-JOURNAL

LAS VEGAS – Fitch Ratings reported Tuesday that the World Market Center has defaulted on a $217.4 million loan, contributing to a 7.4 percent rise in special servicing of delinquent commercial mortgage-backed securities, the Las Vegas Review-Journal newspaper reported this week. World Market Center President and CEO Bob Maricich denied the report to the newspaper. “We are absolutely not in default,” Maricich said. “That’s totally inaccurate. The way Fitch re-

World Market Center President and CEO Bob Maricich denied the report to the newspaper. ported it is not accurate.” The World Market Center is part of a loan pool with a special servicer, and Maricich said it’s possible that a member of that pool is late on a loan. The loan was transferred to special servicing because of the borrowers’ inability to fund operating shortfalls at the 1.1 million-square-foot furniture showroom. After a 54 basis point increase in Fitch’s CMBS Loan Delinquency Index to 3.86, the balance of special service loans in Fitch-rated transactions increased to $35 billion in September from $32.6 billion in August. The World Market Center was developed at a cost of about $1 billion on about 54 acres on Grand Central Parkway in downtown Las Vegas, with three major buildings opening in phases from 2005 to 2008. The last building was built at a cost of $550 million.

The building, the fifth for the High Point campus, is expected to increase seating capacity for students from 1,650 to 2,150 and allow students to start and finish a two-year curriculum degree for some programs in High Point instead of having to go to other campuses for some courses. The campus serves between 5,000 and 6,000 students.

HIGH POINT – It could take contractors another two weeks to finish replacing brick on exterior walls of the new building under construction on the Guilford Technical Community College campus. Contractor J.S. Clark Co. of Mount Airy agreed to remove the brick after an inspection showed the work “was not satisfactory,” Rae Marie Smith, GTCC vice president of administrative services, said this week. “The problem was with a subcontractor,” Smith said. College officials and contractors have not settled on the costs for the delay and additional bricks, Smith said. “We expect to pay for brick only once,” Smith said. The three-story building on the S. Main Street campus will provide 20 classrooms at a cost of $6.2 million. The total project, including design fees, parking spaces, landscaping and equipping building, is $8 million.

If you believe statement is false, write to correct it Hooray for Stephen Madison! When Cathy Brewer Hinson wrote about the gun control bill with an entire package of falsehoods, Madison did the research and exposed her, point by point, line by line. Whenever someone supports their position with falsehoods, they should be corrected. North Carolina Congresswoman Virginia Foxx stated in formal congressional debate that the health care bill scares her “more than the worst terrorist attack anywhere” and if it passes, senior citizens will be “put to death.” How did such a person ever get elected to Congress? Cheryl Dukes writes that the health care bill will raise the deficit, cause millions to lose their coverage and, through some twisted logic, cause a “severe dip” in state tax revenue. Look closely. She is president of the Triad Association of Health Underwriters. She is looking out for the insurance industry, not us! She uses the Lewin Group as her source. She doesn’t tell you that the Lewin Group is a wholly owned subsidiary of the insurance industry! They exist to spread lies for the benefit of the insurance industry. When you hear innocent-sounding names like The Lewin Group, Freedomworks, etc., don’t assume

they are grass roots, unbiased or unaffiliated. The insurance industry has many such “groups” out there being paid big money to deceive Americans with whole packages of lies; just like the tobacco industry once did. And for the reason. Huge corporate profits in callous disregard for the public’s health. The Congressional Budget Office, about as unbiased as you’ll find, has calculated the health care bill will actually reduce the national deficit by $127 billion dollars over its first 10 years.

Walls that divide us are removable obstacles The Berlin Wall (racism) remains standing and completely functional in America. This wall consists of races, religions compounded together to form “racism.” These walls will never come down as long as it is not confronted (changed) by people of world or church systems. Its “prime goal” (demonic) is to separate (make superior) divide by stealing from, killing or destroying ones willingness to be equal to another. The policy issues (choices) in the world speak volumes as religions (Jews and Gentiles) and races (black, white, brown, red, etc.) escalate hatemongering with the superiority thinking that we are truly a different species. America was supposedly built on principles, standards and freedoms (righteous justice) for all, but people have chosen to exercise “just us” attitudes that strengthen the wall of injustice. President Obama’s main problems come from within the government (America), a deep-seeded hatred by (people) Republicans, independents, Democrats, black and white, because he is African-

American. Color of skin is still a major obstacle in America with the world and the church not understanding that we are all “colored” by God. We are whatever God made us, a leopard can’t change his spots, people can’t change their color or sex (male, female). Man is what he is, and he will remain (colored dust) what he is, because God never changes what “He” has made “perfect” and “good”! We are our brother’s, neighbor’s keeper (health care), not his demise weeper. Peacekeepers often deviate (change) from their intended purpose (fixed plan) of self-serving justifications by the appearance of being “peacemakers.” The failure to recognize and realize that color, religion and racism are the greatest sins that steal, kill and destroy the lives (poverty) of people, regurgitates in the face of “Jesus Christ.” People of America, tear down these walls!

From the Rocky Mount Telegram, Nov. 19 For all the publicity surrounding the H1N1 virus for a year or more now, you might think the connection between pigs and swine flu would be well understood. The pig-contracted version rarely occurs in humans and doesn’t affect pork products. Barbecue, ribs, bacon – they’re all perfectly fine and tasty for human consumption. They haven’t been affected by H1N1 at all. Yet after all these months of education and discussion in the media, classrooms, Congress and elsewhere, some people continue to believe otherwise. Even people who should know better. The U.S. Capitol Police last week refused to allow an animal rights group to truck hundreds of pigs to Capitol Hill because of concerns about swine flu. We can think of dozens of reasons to keep livestock away from public venues, but even if the police were looking for a convenient excuse, they chose the wrong one. The department’s statement only furthered misconceptions about pork products. And that has a real impact on farmers in North Carolina and other states who have battled the urban legend all year in their efforts to sell pork. U.S. Rep. Bob Etheridge, D-2nd District, who has farmed for much of his life, came to the aid of the producers this week, calling out the police for blaming the Capitol Hill response on a nonexistent threat. Etheridge did North Carolina and pork producers everywhere a favor by responding so publicly. H1N1 virus demands serious attention from health officials and the rest of us. Fueling an urban legend does no one any favors in the face of such a crisis.

Hate is evil; so why is there so much around?

H

ate is not a family value. This being the case, I wonder how it’s possible that hate is so prevalent in our society. I often consider the problem of hate because I’m often confronted with it, whether by hearing it being conveyed over the airwaves, or seeing it being peddled on television, or witnessing it myself in person, and I’ve in fact confronted some of the various recent incarnations of it in return here in this very space, be it racism, homophobia or hateful political and religious hypocrisy. In my last column, I once again reminded readers that hate continues to infect our society, that it is growing, unabated, and festering among us right here and right now. In this particular case, the targets of hate are Muslims. So I did what I tend to do, which is that I called out the hatemongers. Not surprisingly, they didn’t like that very much. Hiding behind the anonymity afforded by the Internet, comments poured in from some very dark souls to the online edition of my column, attacking me in ways most surprising: “there is a freak in the paper today” “a sick man” “extremely deranged” “probably a Holocaust denier” “a dangerous person” “psycho” “a monster” “a bastard” “this man is evil” “derangement personified” “mentally ill” “crazy” “a bad person” “could be a ‘killer in the mist’ ” and more. “Holocaust denier?” What the …? Some suggested I be investigated by law enforcement. Well I suppose when you encourage others to “Educate against the hate,” as I did, I suppose it could be seen as being a menace – to a society that is consumed by a will to ignorance and harboring a passion for hatred. Funny, I heard once that “knowledge is power.” Perhaps this is how we can begin to understand why our country is so quickly faltering. In the end, these people only confirmed what I originally wrote. They attacked me primarily, but their attacks against Muslims proved the specific point I was making. And they did so not

only in postings to my column, but also (and shamefully) in postings to Meredith Jones’ Teen View column as well. Jones criticized the barrage of hate being directed at Muslims in the postings. But unlike the Internet posters, she entered the OPINION conversation that I suggested we have with heart and intelligence. Robert She may not have agreed with my Healy technique, or with me, and that’s ■■■ fine. But she understood the point. You will note that the postings to her column are just as revealing and unsettling as those to mine. Referring to Muslims as “animals” clearly sums it up. Bigoted individuals fail to see that their own hate and ignorance is more of an enemy to this country than any perceived enemy “out there” could ever be. Sadly, they are trapped by their own hateful mentality and cannot see this simple truth. Now, one final related point: In a letter to the editor, Lewis Hooks wrote, ”I am outraged that the Enterprise continues to print Robert Healy’s pro-Islamic terrorist, anti-Semitic diatribes. ... Healy obviously is an Islamic terrorist apologist who always portrays them as victims.” For the record, this is defamatory, and it is a completely untrue accusation. I’ve never been pro-terrorist (of any kind), nor anti-Semitic, nor an Islamic terrorist apologist. This outrageous, unfounded, and insulting charge leveled against me indicates a tragically hemorrhoidal intellect that I cannot even begin to fathom. I challenge Hooks to produce evidence to support his accusation that I am “pro-Islamic terrorist” or that I’ve written “anti-Semitic” diatribes – or produce an apology forthwith. ROBERT HEALY is a veteran of the U.S. Army and graduate of the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. He lives in High Point.

Abbas says Israeli settlement freeze not enough CARACAS, Venezuela– Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas dismissed an Israeli plan to halt new construction of West Bank settlements as insufficient on Friday, saying it won’t be enough to restart peace talks.

VIENNA (AP) – In a blow to Iran, the board of the U.N. nuclear agency on Friday overwhelmingly backed a demand from the U.S., Russia, China and three other powers that Tehran immediately stop building its newly revealed nuclear facility and freeze uranium enrichment.

But the U.S. and its allies hinted of new U.N. sanctions if Tehran remains defiant. The West said some time remained for Tehran to come around and accept a specific offer that would

RIYADH, Saudi Arabia – Saudi Arabia says nine of its soldiers fighting Yemeni rebels on the border are missing and the kingdom’s monarch is vowing to defend the country. A defense ministry statement said the fate of the soldiers remains unknown. The statement was a reaction to reports that the soldiers were captured by Yemeni rebels. Saudi Arabia has unleashed an offensive against Yemeni Shiite rebels who crossed into the kingdom and killed a Saudi soldier earlier this month. The rebels have been fighting Yemen’s central government for five years.

ACLU sues for students to wear anti-Islam shirts in Florida schools

Biblical Literacy

GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) – The American Civil Liberties Union has sued a north Florida school district, claiming that the Alachua County School District violated students’ rights by not allowing them to wear T-shirts with an anti-Islamic message. The civil rights organization says that while it doesn’t agree with the “Islam is of the Devil� message printed on T-shirts distributed by the Dove World Outreach Center, it does support the students’ constitutional right to freedom of speech.

Boost your IQ with book containing Bible stories, phrases you need to know CLEVELAND (AP) – Woe is me: If you want to be all things to all people, remember that many are called but few are chosen. If those phrases have a familiar ring, they should: They come from the Bible and have entered the secular lexicon. The nation’s left-right culture wars have heightened such use of biblical phrases as rivals try to invoke heavenly punch and challenge your Bible IQ. For one, President Barack Obama has said that opponents of his health care proposals are “bearing false witness� against his ideas, recalling the commandment against lying without accusing critics of being liars. That gave Obama’s rhetoric a dose of divine imperative, according to

Timothy Beal, a college religion professor who has written a book connecting popular references to biblical stories. “Biblical Literacy: the Essential Bible Stories Everyone Needs to Know� was published in October. “I think you can’t be culturally literate without being biblically literate,� Beal said in an interview in his snug, book-lined office at Case Western Reserve University. “These biblical stories and even images are pervasive in our language, they are all over our culture, from high culture to low culture, from Michelangelo to the Simpsons.� Beal believes people who are unfamiliar with these or other biblical references in everyday life are missing a lot.

The Sinaiticus: We almost didn’t know it existed B

iblical scholars do not know who constructed the first “New Testament.” But they do know that it was accomplished by the Fourth Century (the 300s) because the earliest known complete copy of the New Testament has been dated to the Fourth Century. This copy is known as the Sinaiticus, and it is a copy of the New Testament in Greek, the same language the books of the New Testament were written in. There is another side to the Sinaiticus, though, that is every bit as fascinating as it is important to biblical scholars. That is the story of how it was discovered. The story of bringing Sinaiticus to light centers on one Constantin von Tischendorf (1815-1874). In 1844, at age 29 and on behalf of the University of Leipzig, Tischendorf traveled throughout much of the Middle East searching for early Biblical manuscripts. He stopped at a monastery of St Catharine at the foot of Mount Sinai. He noticed the monks stoking the oven fire with

parchments from a trash can. Upon close inspection, he discovered they were early greek copies of Old Testament books (dating over 1000 years). He searched through the basket and discovered STUDYING 43 leaves. One monk THE CHURCH told him that two basket loads of such parchments had just been Mark burned. Tischendorf Nickens was able to keep some of ■■■ these parchments and, in 1846, presented them to his patron (who paid his bills), the King of Saxony, Frederick Augustus. In 1853, Tischendorf was able to visit the monastery of St Catharine again, but with no success. He visited again in 1859, this time with the Czar of Russia, Alexander II, as his patron. He again met with no success until the day before he left. He gave a gift to the overseer of the monastery, a published

copy of the greek Old Testament books he had earlier taken back to Europe. The overseer mentioned that he already had a copy of these. Upon seeing it, Tischendorf realized that it not only contained a copy of the Old Testament in Greek, but the New Testament as well. He stayed up the entire night studying parchments; it was that earliest complete New Testament in Greek mentioned before, the Sinaiticus. Tischendorf later wrote in his diary “It really seemed a sacrilege to sleep.” Yet the overseer would not allow him to buy this volume. The next day, Tischendorf left for a scheduled trip to Cairo. While there he located the abbot of the monastery (a position above that of overseer) and convinced him to have the Greek New Testament volume brought to Cairo for more study. Once it was there, Tischendorf convinced the abbot to give it to the Czar of Russia (remember that he was paying Tischendorf’s bills) in exchange for certain favors by the Czar (who was

the protector of the Greek Orthodox Church, which St. Catharine monastery belonged to). And so that volume known as the Sinaiticus eventually made it to Russia where it was studied and reprinted. However, as fascinating as that is, it almost pales compared to this. After the Russian Revolution ended, the communists came to power. They had a great need for money and so sold many works from their museums. Being an atheistic government, they saw no need to have such a “useless” treasure as the Sinaiticus and decided to sell it. They found a buyer in the British Museum. In December 1933, the Sinaiticus was sold to the British government for the price of $50,000 (in 1933 dollars). And that is where most of it resides today. I did see a page of the Sinaiticus at a museum once. QUESTIONS/COMMENTS contact Mark at www. drnickens.com; other summaries available there.

Thankful for a faith that can be analyzed, scrutinized T he Thanksgiving Day we just celebrated in the United States was first observed in this land 388 years ago when Gov. William Bradford called the people together to listen to their pastor, sing hymns and psalms of gratitude and to pray and listen to the prayers of others. A nation born in a prayer meeting. That undying faith in God has held the people of our land, immigrants and native Americans, together in spite of famine, war, depressions, floods, fires, wind and sword. It has comforted and sustained us during poverty, epidemics, injury, death and the deepest sorrow. Contemporary historians, those who have a grasp on the past and are alert to what is actually taking place at the present, remind us daily that we are living in very difficult times. It is what, Cicero, wrote cen-

turies ago about history: “The witness of the times … the messenger of antiquity.” James Froude called history, “A voice forever SHARING sounding across the centuries the THE SPIRIT laws of right and wrong.” I hope Bill we, as a nation, Ellis understand that history is inclined to repeat itself not with a gentle breeze, but with a devastating whirlwind. Many observers of current issues see a diminishing of individual freedoms. They are being taken from us day by day as government is tempted to operate outside the bounds of the Constitution of the United States. That historic and guiding document begins, “We the People of the United States”

and not with “We the Government of the United States.” Government has within its ranks too many incompetent and unethical people being paid more than they deserve. It may be time for a national anatomy test of the things that are most important to our fitness and ultimate survival. Are we presently able to withstand any attack either from within and without? In the last two years, two talented authors wrote books, which they titled “The Sad Mad Glad Book” and “Another Sad Mad Glad Book” with the subtitle for both being, “The Anatomy of Your Attitude.” The pictures and script almost defy imagination. Our youth need these two books, as do all adults. The authors, two brilliant and creative men, have produced another award-winning book. Chuck Stump and Jim

Following the Spirit Within The Chinese word “Tao,” which is often translated into English as “way,” is actually much more meaningful than the single word “way.” The Chinese character for Tao contains two symbols, a symbol of a person running forward and a symbol for the head (or mind). Thus, the word Tao literally means to run forward mindfully, or to follow the path. The figure running forward can also be interpreted to mean one’s true self (i.e., one’s head or mind is one’s true self). Thus the Chinese character for Tao can be interpreted to mean diligently following the path of the true self. This is the deeper meaning of the Tao, in much the same way that Christians consider following the Spirit within them to be the true Way. All true religions tell us that we must diligently seek to follow the Spirit within us. Unfortunately, our true selves are obscured by our bodies, our desires, our past experiences, and the physical world. It requires diligent, concentrated effort to see the true path. Our true self always knows the path of wisdom, if only we can see and hear the Spirit within us. We should listen to the Spirit within us and diligently strive to follow the true and righteous path.

Commission seeks nominees

WHO’S NEWS

BY PAT KIMBROUGH ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – The High Point Human Relations Commission is seeking nominations for an award that will recognize an individual for humanitarian efforts. The Human Relations Humanitarian award is given annually to someone whose contributions during the previous year “benefitted traditionally oppressed individuals or groups.” The commission’s 16-member board selects the winner from nominations submitted by the community, and the award is presented in January. “The award is specifically not to recognize a person who has some type of civic engagement, but someone who has served the community in a humanitarian aspect,” said Ester Boss, program coordinator for the commission. The award recognizes someone for their work on behalf of groups that include, but aren’t limited to, “racial and ethnic minorities, females, homosexuals and the economically disadvantaged,” according to the commission. The commission’s board looks for a person “who has risen above and beyond the call of duty in furthering the cause of equality and fair treatment for all citizens,” according to the commission. Last year’s winner was High Point Central High School Principal Revonda Johnson. “Her students really have an opportunity to engage and talk about and address social justice issues,” said Al Heggins, director of the commission. Other previous winners include former Guilford County Board of Education member Dot Kearns, High Point attorney Jim Morgan, former High Point City Councilman Ron Wilkins and Raymond Payne, the founder of Rabbit Quarter Ministries, a ministry to the homeless. “What made (Payne) stand out was his work with the homeless and the awareness he built around issues the homeless are facing,” Heggins said. pkimbrough@hpe.com | 888-3531

AT A GLANCE

Nominations for the 2010 Human Relations Humanitarian Award must be postmarked no later than Dec. 4 and mailed to the High Point Human Relations Commission, P.O. Box 230, High Point, NC 27261 or faxed to 822-4777. The award will be presented during the city’s annual Martin Luther King Jr. Community Celebration on Jan. 17 at the High Point Theatre.

HIGH POINT – Abby Nifong’s Christmas shopping list this year doesn’t just include family and friends – it also will benefit people, many of whom she doesn’t know, who are going through hard times. Nifong, a nurse from Lexington, was at Oak Hollow Mall on Friday. She plans to do more through her place of worship, First Alliance Church in Davidson County, to help underprivileged people this holiday season. Her church is raising money for homeless shelters and to provide Christmas gifts to children through Operation Christmas Child of Samaritan’s Purse, the ministry established through the Rev. Franklin Graham. Nifong and her fellow parishioners also are doing more to help church members who are coping with financial hardship during the holidays. “So many people are out of work, your heart goes out to them,” she said. With county unemployment rates in the greater High Point area ranging from around 11 percent to more than 13 percent, shoppers who are fortunate enough to

The global charity World Vision reported this week that gift catalog revenue has increased 22 percent compared to last year. Since Oct. 1, the charity has raised more than $3.6 million toward its $25 million goal for the holiday season. World Vision reports donations through the catalog helped more than 500,000 people globally last year. World Vision is promoting a campaign called True Spirit of Christmas, showing

how the lives of poor people are changed through items bought in its catalog. The recession may have made more Americans realize how lucky they are to not worry each day about providing basic necessities to their families, but how many people across the country and world go wanting, said World Vision spokeswoman Laura Blank. “There’s a new reality, and the holidays prompt us to think about not just ourselves and what’s on our Christmas wish list, but what people around the world might need,” Blank said. pjohnson@hpe.com | 888-3528

Former Archdale mayor Taylor dies BY PAUL B. JOHNSON ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

Larry Simpson, professor of history at High Point University, recently wrote for the anthology, “Political Islam from Muhammad to Ahmadinejad.” Simpson’s thesis is that the kind of radical, politicized Islam that the Somali leaders sought to employ to unite Somalis under Hassan’s authority and against the British, Italians and Ethiopians proved incapable of the task.

Taylor’s public service helped Archdale develop into the modern, growing city that it is today, said Randolph County Commissioner Darrell Frye, a lifelong friend of Tay-

lor. Policies that Taylor promoted during the formation of Archdale and when he served as mayor resulted in services that residents enjoy now, said Frye, whom Taylor encouraged to first run for county commissioner nearly 30 years ago. “I’ve always had a tremendous amount of respect and appreciation for him. Lloyd was always a gentleman, very professional, always cordial,” Frye said. Taylor, a U.S. Army Air

Corps veteran, retired from political service in 1983. He was active in civic activities for decades, including service through the Archdale-Trinity Lions Club, Archdale United Methodist Church and Wesley Memorial United Methodist Church, and local chapters of The Salvation Army, Boy Scouts and Future Business Leaders of America. During his years as mayor, the Archdale-Trinity Chamber of Commerce

He was a man of his word, a man of integrity, a man who loved to help other people,” Perez said. pjohnson@hpe.com | 888-3528

Botanical extracts have critical uses A

s I often say in many of my speeches and writings, God gave us everything we need here on Earth; it is just up to us to figure out what it is, how to use it and how to protect it from being destroyed by our ways of living. I truly believe that life is made up of elements of good fortune and with adversity. It is our God-given skills and abilities and our reason that allows us to overpower adversity with good fortune. I also believe that God gave us a plant for every use and every adversity. We just have to figure out how to use them. We learned to how eat many of them; how to use them for shelter, comfort (furniture), to wear them and to use some of them for medicine. Plants have everything we need for our lives. One natural adversity on Earth is disease. Many of them can be spread by insect vectors that carry it from person to person and place to place. One troublesome insect that can carry many diseases is the mosquito. Years ago during my biotechnology research days, I studied mosquitoes and the diseases they carried trying to create a new platform of medicines to combat the diseases and the insect. Scientists are still working on the problem yet today, 25 years later. At last count, we had discovered

The Minnesota Department of Health advises, “The number of mosquitoes that are actually capable of causing infection in humans is relatively small, but it is always advisable to take preventive measures to protect yourself.� One way of doing this in the absence of killing the mosquitoes in their breeding ground is to use insect repellents around our homes and on our bodies.

recommend methods of minimizing mosquito bites: • Wear mosquito repellent containing up to 30 percent DEET (10 percent for children). • Wear long sleeve shirts and pants. • Avoid outdoor activity at peak mosquito feeding times (dawn and dusk). • Eliminate water-holding containers (buckets, tires, etc.) from your property. This will reduce numbers of several mosquito species. In a recent news release, the Agricultural Research Service announced their scientists have teamed up with researchers from a company in American Samoa to investigate the chemical makeup of a mosquito- and ant-repellent essential oil from a native Samoan plant. The ARS scientists and researchers at Agro Research, in Pago Pago, American Samoa, discovered that the oil from a local plant repelled mosquitoes and pest ants in preliminary studies. The isolation and identification of the active component (or components) will be done as part of a recently established one-year cooperative research and development agreement. The plant is one of the 540 native species of flowering plants in American Samoa, a U.S. island territory in the South

Pacific. Two mosquito species – Aedes aegypti and Anopheles albimanus – were used to evaluate the essential oil’s repellency. One mosquito type transmits viruses that cause yellow fever, dengue and chikungunya. The other mosquito species transmits malaria parasites and is not as susceptible to repellents as many other mosquito species. The essential oil was also tested on the red imported fire ant. Significant repellency was observed with concentrations diluted more than 100-fold, and the active components are likely a small fraction of the total oil. While American Samoa is malariafree, mosquitoes pose significant problems for the Samoan population due to transmission of dengue virus. Exploration for new active ingredients among botanical extracts has value because it can lead to the discovery of new synthetic analogs with unique and useful properties.

ear Abby: My 8-year-old granddaughter has posed a question that stumped me, and I hope you can help with an answer: Why be neat and wellgroomed? She doesn’t care what people think of how she looks. She sees no problem wearing clothes that are torn, etc. I am concerned that by the time she reaches adolescence she won’t care how she looks when she leaves the house. Her hair is extremely curly. It can’t be combed or it gets wilder and frizzier, which adds to her unkempt appearance. Her hair may improve as she gets older if she’s motivated to spend the extra time. I am challenged by her question. How can I answer her? – Lost for Words in Florida

Her family suggested it, and Lacey is urging me to go. I want to go to France, but I was planning on studying abroad through my university in a couple of years. Lacey thinks I should stay with her family for a month or two in order to appreciate the culture. She says I could do some baby-sitting or chores to earn my keep, but I have two concerns: I feel

it would be an inconvenience for her family to take me in as a houseguest for the whole summer. And I don’t know what I would do with myself. Lacey won’t be there, and I’d be living in a suburban area. I have no idea how I’d learn the culture without the structure only a school can provide. Lacey says school isn’t a true experience, and I should just show up in France and decide as I go. We have reached an impasse, and I’d like to know what you would do in my shoes. – Tres Troublee in New Hampshire Dear Tres Troublee: Are you kidding?

When I watched today’s deal in a Chicago game, South was way ahead, having made a string of laydown games. East was grumbling about South’s luck, and West asked for a new deck. “You’ll get some good cards soon,” South consoled them. “That’s an optimist,” West growled: “somebody who tells you to cheer up when everything is going his way.” As luck would have it, North-South promptly bid a 28-point slam. South’s jump to three diamonds showed about 17 points with a long, strong suit; North liked his aces.

GOOD LUCK West led the jack of clubs: more good luck for South. He won with the queen and led a diamond. When West followed with the deuce, South played dummy’s six! When East discarded, South cashed the ace of diamonds, returned a spade to his king and set up the diamonds for 12 tricks. An optimist would have tried for 13 tricks, but South turned pessimist in the play – rightly so, with a slam bonus at stake. His safety play guarded against a 4-0 diamond break.

ANSWER: Your partner’s jump-preference is forcing; his two diamonds promised at least 10 points, and if he had no extra strength, he could have bid two spades at his second turn.

Overtraining is as bad as undertraining

D

ear Dr. Donohue: How do I tell if I am overtraining? I maintain a steady schedule of vigorous weight and cardio training. I periodically take weeklong mountain biking trips where I may average riding 85 miles a day on consecutive days. Following my last trip and for the first time, I suffered fatigue and a major drop in energy level. After 10 days of rest, I feel better, but I am concerned that I may be losing my ability to recover and causing harm to my body. My cardio routine is two to six hours a week on my bike, and three to four hours a week in the gym. My weightlifting routine is three days a week and covers all major muscle groups. How do I know when to back off? – G.D.

Overtraining can be as harmful as no training. It’s a state of physical and psychological stress brought on by far too much work and far too little rest. Burnout is a popular word for it. Long-distance runners and long-distance swimmers are the ones most likely to fall into the overtraining trap. Your program is demanding, but only you can judge if it has passed the line between a healthy level of exercise and a harmful one. Fatigue and a drop in energy are two signs of overdoing things. Other signs include a decrease in strength and coordination, chronic muscle soreness, loss of appetite, unrefreshing sleep, poor performance

and a loss of interest in your exercise routine. A rise in the resting pulse rate is HEALTH an objective indication Dr. Paul that you are Donohue spending ■■■ too much time in exercise and giving yourself too little rest. The resting pulse is taken in the morning while you’re still in bed. Don’t take it immediately after the alarm has rung. Lie quietly for five minutes, and then take it. If the resting heart rate has increased by five to 10 beats a minute, that’s a sign that you’re overdoing. Rest is the cure. You don’t have to be completely inactive. Three to five weeks of light exercise should free you from the symptoms of overtraining. You also might want to devise a new program. Performing the same routine week after week puts your muscles in a rut, and little progress is made.

you have enough equipment. The idea is to lift moderately heavy weights for as many repetitions as you can in half a minute. Then, after a 15-second rest, move quickly to the next station, where you perform a different weightlifting exercise for the same amount of time and as many reps as you can. Each station is set up for a different muscle group – biceps, triceps, chest, back, upper legs, lower legs and so on. Anywhere from eight to 15 stations are involved. To be sure you’re giving your heart a workout, get the heart beating somewhat fast and keep it at that level throughout the entire session.

Dear Dr. Donohue: Are you familiar with something called circuit resistance? I have heard it talked about. It’s supposed to combine cardio training with resistance training. I’d like to combine the two to save some time. – P.R.

That’s delayed-onset muscle soreness. You might begin to feel a little sore on the day after exercise, but pain reaches a maximum in 48 to 72 hours and lasts three to eight days. It’s due to tiny muscle tears and inflammation of the tissues that surround muscles. A brief vacation from exercise cures it. Massage helps, as does a whirlpool or soaking in warm water.

Circuit resistance goes by many names. It’s easy to do in a gym, where there are many stations of weightlifting machines. You can do it at home if

Dear Dr. Donohue: I’m not new to exercise, but I have taken a long vacation from it, 10 years. I started again and experienced something new. My muscles ached not the day after exercise but on the third day, and they stayed sore for quite some time. Is this unusual? – R.R.

Duke drubs UConn Dudley foils Ragsdale DON DAVIS JR. | HPE

Mud splattered but happy, Ragsdale’s Billy Stone (55) gets props from DeSean Anderson after Stone intercepted a pass and returned it for a second-quarter touchdown during Friday night’s NCHSAA 4A West third-round playoff game in Greensboro. The Panthers sealed a 13-7 victory with a fourth-quarter touchdown.

BY DANIEL KENNEDY SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE

GREENSBORO – Tommy Norwood insisted throughout the week that his team had to avoid experiencing déjà vu Friday night at J.A. Tarpley Stadium. A year removed from a 26-10 defeat at the hands of two-time defending state champion Dudley in the third round of the 3AA playoffs, Ragsdale was unable to avoid an all-too-familiar fate in the 4A West classification. The Tigers lost a 13-7 dogfight with the Panthers for a second straight year thanks to a dominant Dudley defense that shut down a typically explosive Ragsdale unit. “We had a solid season. A lot of people would love to be 13-1,” Tigers coach Tommy Norwood said. “We just made too many mistakes at critical times.” Dudley captured three interceptions – including two uncharacteristic blunders from QB Luke

JR Peterson ran the ball in from four yards out to give Dudley (131) the 13-7 edge following David Amerson’s interception and return to the Tiger 1 of an attempted flea-flicker from Tyquan Roberts. Ragsdale’s lone touchdown came after a crucial fumble lost in Panthers territory recovered by linebacker Major Bryant. Four plays later, Bryant’s counterpart – middle linebacker Billy Stone – picked off a pass from Alex Moore and returned it 48 yards to tie the score at 7 heading into halftime. “Everyone played as hard as they could. We just came up a little bit short,” Stone concluded. For the second year in a row, it

was a defining drive by Dudley that deflated the Tigers in the second half. The Panthers’ relentless ground attack consistently gashed the Ragsdale defense on Dudley’s second possession with a great push up the middle early in the contest. The 14-play, 76-yard drive covered a seven-minute span and handed the home team an early 70 lead. “One of the (significant) things was that we didn’t get onto the field,” Norwood noted. “We didn’t have an opportunity to run a lot of plays and then when we did, we made some crucial mistakes. Going against them is a lot like going against our defense. Going 80 yards down the field is hard in high school football.”

Woods escapes serious injury THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Tiger Woods was injured early Friday when he lost control of his SUV outside his Florida mansion, and a local police chief said Woods’ wife used a golf club to smash out the back window to help get him out. The world’s No. 1 golfer was treated and released from a hospital in good condition, his spokesman said. The Florida Highway Patrol said Woods’ vehicle hit a fire hydrant and a tree in his neighbor’s yard after he pulled out of his driveway at 2:25 a.m. Windermere police chief Daniel Saylor told The Associated Press

that officers found the 33-year-old PGA star lying in the street with his wife, Elin, hovering over him. “She was frantic, upset,” Saylor said in a Woods briefing Friday night. “It was her husband laying on the ground.” She told officers she was in the house when she heard the accident and “came out and broke the back window with a golf club,” he said, adding that the front-door windows were not broken and that “the door was probably locked.” “She supposedly got him out and laid him on the ground,” he said.

“He was in and out of consciousness when my guys got there.” Saylor said Woods had lacerations to his upper and lower lips, and blood in his mouth; officers treated Woods for about 10 minutes until an ambulance arrived. Woods was conscious enough to speak, he said. “He was mumbling, but didn’t say anything coherent,” Saylor said. The Florida Highway Patrol said alcohol was not involved, although the accident remains under investigation and charges could be filed. Woods was alone in his 2009 Cadillac when he pulled out of his driveway from his mansion at Isleworth, a gated waterfront community just outside Orlando, the patrol said.

NEW YORK (AP) – The game that started with more wins between the coaches than any in Division I history was far from an instant classic. Duke and Connecticut combined to miss a total of 90 shots from the field, and the team that missed more of them rebounded its way to another big win at Madison Square Garden. Seventh-ranked Duke and Mike Krzyzewski won another NIT Season TipOff on Friday with a 68-59 victory over No. 13 Connecticut and Jim Calhoun. The Hall of Fame coaches set the record for total career wins in a game and Krzyzewski now has 839, fourth on the all-time list, and Calhoun still has 809, good for sixth place. The Blue Devils (6-0) beat the Huskies (4-1) in extending their winning streak in the tournament to 12 games with a third straight title (2000, 2005) and fourth overall (1985). Duke shot 28.4 percent (21 of 74) compared to Connecticut’s 37.3 percent (22 of 59), but the Blue Devils finished with a 56-43 rebound advantage, 25-14 on the offensive boards. The victory snapped UConn’s four-game winning streak in the series with the last two victories both coming in Final Fours – the 1999 national title game and the 2004 semifinals. It was the first time Duke won a game shooting under 30 percent since a 68-53 victory over Navy on Feb. 4, 1950, when the Devils shot 27.3 percent. Tournament MVP Jon Scheyer had 19 points to lead Duke.

Skinner, Lewis finish where they started BY GREER SMITH ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER

AP FILE

Matt Cline (17) leads Appalachian State with 66 receptions for 750 yards this season. The former Glenn High School star has scored one touchdown for the Mountaineers (9-2), who play host to S.C. State (10-1) today at noon in the first round of the FCS playoffs. The game will be televised on ESPNU (Editor’s note: station not available to all area viewers.)

Cline emerges as go-to Mountaineer man

E

verything that Appalachian State accomplishes on the football field this season is more special for Matt Cline. It’s more special for the Thomasville resident, even though he has been part of the Mountaineer program while it won two of its three NCAA Football Championship Subdivision national championships. It’s for more special for the former East Davidson and Glenn standout, even though he had been part of three Southern Conference championship before the Mountaineers (9-2) rolled through the league undefeated this season. It’s more special because Cline became an intregal part of the Mountaineers after becoming a fixture in the starting lineup this season. Becoming a favorite target of ASU’s heralded quarterback Armanti Edwards, Cline’s numbers include 66 catches for 750 yards and one touchdown entering today’s first-round playoff game against South Carolina State at Kidd Brewer Stadium (noon, ESPNU). He grabbed eight passes for 107 yards against N.C. Central, 10 for 102 yards against Georgia Southern, eight catches for 122 yards against Furman and eight catches for 104 yards in the 27-10 win over Elon that clinched the league title, a championship that Cline currently rates above the two national championships because he made significant contributions. “Winning the conference championship this year was the highlight of my career because I was more a part of the offense,� Cline said. “Winning the national championships were awesome but this year being more involved means something more.� For his first three seasons, Cline played behind now-graduated T.J. Courman. His first season was cut short by injury. His second year, he caught six passes, including one in the upset at Michigan. Last year, he logged yardage as a receiver, running back and on one kickoff return. His value as a receiver increased when CoCo Hillary, Edwards’ main target, suffered a season-ending knee injury in practice between the Furman and Chattanooga wins, the eighth and ninth games of the season. Since the loss of Hillary, Cline helped soften the blow with 19 catches for 203 yards. “Individually, my role hasn’t changed a lot since then,� Cline said. “We had two guys who have helped fill his position. We’ve got guys who can step in when someone like Coco goes down. It’s a big loss, but we have guys who can play.� Cline played his first three years in high school at East Davidson before transferring to Glenn to play under his uncle Dickie Cline. Matt Cline said the year at Glenn got him ready at Appalachian. “I was playing quarterback at East and I knew I wasn’t going to able to play quarterback in college and that’s

why I went to play at Glenn,� Matt Cline said. “Playing for my uncle, he had me doing everything, receiver, running back, some defensive back, returning kicks. He developed me overall. That was the first time I SPORTS played receiver and that’s what I’ve done up here. Greer We were in a conference Smith (the Piedmont Triad 3A) ■■■that was pretty strong. It helped me coming in being a little more prepared for the speed of the game. “I don’t know if I would have gotten less of a shot if I had stayed at East, but playing at Glenn and for my uncle prepared me for this level.� He’s been prepared enough to fulfill his mission to contribute. “I’ve just tried to improve as the season went on,� Matt Cline said.� I try to go out every game and do what I need to help the team. It’s worked out well winning the conference and now we’re trying to make a run in the playoffs.� ASU is on a nine-game winning streak since losing its first two games while Edwards was sidelined by a foot injury suffered in a lawn-mower accident. Matt Cline said the Mountaineers really started hitting their stride with the 52-16 blowout victory over a Georgia Southern team that was considered to be a league contender. “Against Georgia Southern, the defense played great,� Cline said. “Offensively we were hitting on all cylinders. That showed us that we could play at the next level and we were able to finish strong and win the conference championship. We’re just trying to take the momentum into the playoffs.� Today, the Mountaineers try to maintain the momentum against a team they defeated 38-14 in the first-round of the playoffs last year. ASU is seeded fifth in the 16-team field. The Bulldogs are seeded seventh. “They’ve got good athletes on defense,� Cline said. “They blitz a lot and play man coverage. Hopefully that will open up some things for us in the passing game. We’ll take what they give us.� One thing is certain. No matter what happens in the playoffs, Cline will be back for a fifth season. Early this year, he received a medical redshirt for missing the rest of the season after being injured in the third game of his freshman year. Cline said the delay in getting the medical redshirt was due to some of his paperwork being submitted incorrectly. “It just took time to get it straightened out,� Cline said. “It’s a good feeling getting the extra year back. It was a weight off my shoulders knowing that I have that year next year. As far as my approach to this season, getting the extra year didn’t affect the way I’ve played this year. But it feels good to have that extra year.� gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3519

Alabama squeaks past Auburn, 26-21 THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

AUBURN, Ala. – No. 2 Alabama found its championship form in the nick of time. Outplayed most of the game, the Crimson Tide stayed unbeaten with a 26-21 victory Friday over Auburn, taking the lead with a nearly perfect drive that was capped by Greg McElroy’s 4-yard touchdown pass to Roy Upchurch with 1:24 left. Alabama (12-0, 8-0 Southeastern Conference) completed a second straight perfect regular season in the Iron Bowl. The Tide fell behind in the opening minutes, but came out ahead to do its part to set up 1 vs. 2 showdown with top-ranked Florida in the SEC title game. Auburn (7-5, 3-5) pushed the ball to the Alabama 37 on the final drive, but Chris Todd’s pass to the end zone was batted down by the Tide defense.

(5) CINCINNATI 49, ILLINOIS 36 CINCINNATI – Tony Pike answered all the questions six times over. The senior quarterback returned from a major injury to his non-throwing arm and had a record day Friday, passing for six touchdowns in a 49-36 victory over Illinois that kept fifth-ranked Cincinnati unbeaten. Cincinnati (11-0) remained one of six unbeaten BCS teams.

DURHAM – Call it a one of those weird twists of fate. Riley Skinner and Thaddeus Lewis, who both made their first starts at quarterback when Duke faced Wake Forest in 2006 and went on to rack up some of the best passing statistics in Atlantic Coast Conference history, will end their careers against each other today when the Demon Deacons travel to Wallace Wade Stadium (noon, WXLV, Ch. 45) for a meeting of teams not going to bowls. Both own school records for passing attempts, pass completions, passing yards and passing touchdown. This year they joined N.C. State’s Philip Rivers as he only players in conference history who have thrown for 2,000 yards in each of their four seasons. Lewis ranks third all-time in the conference with 9,678 yards and needs 161 yards to pass Chris Weinke for second. Skinner is seventh at 9,127 and needs 334 to move into sixth. Wake Forest senior defensive lineman John Russell means no disrespect to his teammate Skinner, but heaps high praise upon Lewis. “Riley is going to hate me for saying this, but Lewis is probably the toughest quarterback in the conference,� Russell said. “The kid just knows how to take everything in stride. You look over and see guys like Lewis who not only comes with the leadership role and great poise, but also plays great football game in and game out regardless of the circumstances. That is what makes him so dangerous. He is just a great competitor.� Lewis will be trying to lead Duke to

its first victory over Wake since 1999. The three losses to the Skinner-led teams have been by five points or less. Two of those defeats came on deciding plays at the end. In the 2006 game in which Skinner was pressed into service after Ben Mauk was injured the previous week, Wake escaped 14-13 on a blocked field goal in the waning seconds. Last year, Duke missed a field goal attempt that would have resulted in victory at the end of regulation, then lost in overtime when Alphonso Smith picked off a Lewis pass as the Deacons prevailed, 33-30. A victory today would enable Duke (5-6, 3-4) to finish even overall and in the league. Wake (4-7, 2-5) will post the first losing season under Jim Grobe since 2005. Given the close nature of the series in recent years, Russell and Skinner expect to sweat some more today. Given that Wake has lost five games by three points or less, two of them in overtime, Skinner wants to win without being involved in another thriller. “It’s a game they circle and we circle,� Skinner said. “It’s an in-state game. People on the outside think we should win that game because it’s Duke. But we know that’s not the case. We know what they bring to the table, the talent they have. They’re disciplined and beat you with schemes. We’ve got to be ready. We’ve put ourselves in some close positions against them and we’ve gotten out of them the last couple of years. We don’t want to put ourselves in that position because we’ve been in that position too many times already this year.� gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3519

HP Central hosts stellar girls hoops field today BY GREER SMITH ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER

HIGH POINT – Some of the best girls basketball teams in the state are in action today at High Point Central’s gym. The ninth edition of what is now known as the Papa Johns Headliner Classic will showcase eight games beginning at 10 a.m. The marquee game features Dudley and Forest View

at 7:30 p.m. in a rematch of last March’s state 3A championship game won by Dudley. The Panthers aren’t the only defending state champion in action. Salisbury, the 2A champ, will take on Mount Tabor at 2:30. Another intriguing pairing pits 2007-08 3A champ Concord against East Mecklenburg, which lost in the 4A state regionals, in the final at 8:30. The host Bison take on South Central, which lost in the 3A regional finals the past two years. Other games include Lake Norman against Wilm-

ington Hoggard at 4 p.m.; Thomasville and Grimsley at 1 p.m.; Wilkes Central and Patton at 11:30 a.m., and Lexington and Greensboro Day at 10 a.m. “It’s the biggest field we’ve ever had and the best,� said High Point Central coach Kenny Carter, the event’s promoter. “We’ve got a lot of teams that should be state championship contenders. We’ll have several players who are Division I college prospects. It’s a quality field from top to bottom.� gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3519

BY ZACH KEPLEY THOMASVILLE TIMES

THOMASVILLE – It is safe to say the Lexington-Thomasville rivalry is officially back to being one of the most hotly contested in the state. Spotting the Yellow Jackets a 20-point lead midway through the third quarter, Thomasville roared back to lead 21-20 with 5:56 to play. Unfazed, the Jackets responded with a score on Marquez Grayson’s 23yard touchdown run to stun Thomasville 28-21 in the third-round NCHSAA 2A playoff game as packed house watched at Cushwa Stadium Friday night. The Yellow Jackets snapped a losing streak to the Bulldogs that dates back to 1991. Lexington improves to 8-6 and travels to Mountain Heritage next Friday. Thomasville finishes the season 9-5. “I told our kids that you are not just playing for us this year, you are playing for all of those guys over the years that have lost to these guys,� said an emotional Lexington coach Chris Deal. “What a great crowd to-

night. A lot of these people that came home for Thanksgiving saw something special.� Leading 20-0 in the third quarter, the Jackets were cruising, controlling the line of scrimmage on both sides. With its hopes of advancing hanging in the balance, Thomasville pulled itself up off the canvas in dramatic fashion. Quin Riley scored two rushing touchdowns and Kesean Green one, as the Bulldogs barked and snarled their way back to lead 2120 with 5:56 to play. Lexington looked nothing like it did the first time around against the Bulldogs and proved one final time that they belonged in the playoffs. The Yellow Jackets needed just three plays from their own 39 to drive for the final score. Duke Horton ran for two yards on first down, then quarterback Al Challenger hit Marcus Pittman over the middle for a 36-yard gain to the Thomasville 23. Then, on an unusual play, the Jackets took the lead for good. Challenger pitched to Grayson, who momentarily fumbled the ball

and then scooped it up. Grayson then kept his feet moving and broke free for the deciding score. Thomasville was unable to do anything with the ball on its last two drives. “We struggled really bad blocking them,� said THS head coach Allen Brown, who could have won his 300th game at THS with a victory. “We struggled last week and again this week.� Five plays is all Lexington needed to score at the start of the game, overcoming a key thirdand-nine play during the drive. After just getting the first down, Duke Horton made his second huge run of the drive, ripping through the heart of the THS defense virtually untouched, racing 47 yards to put Lexington up 7-0 with 10:06 showing in the first quarter. Feeding off the momentum created by its offense, the Yellow Jacket defense came alive, limiting what the Bulldogs could do with the ball. Thomasville’s five possessions in the first half ended punt, interception, punt, interception, punt.

CHARLOTTE – Gerald Wallace had 31 points and 14 rebounds while outplaying LeBron James, and the Cleveland Cavaliers looked disjointed in Shaquille O’Neal’s return from injury in a 94-87 loss to the Charlotte Bobcats on Friday night. The surprising Bobcats won their third straight game following a seven-game losing streak behind Wallace, who beat James in numerous 1-on-1 matchups in the post. Wallace topped 30 points for the second straight game, while James scored 25 points.

O’Neal recovered after missing five of his first seven shots to finish with 11 points and eight rebounds. He had missed the past six games with a strained left shoulder, and Cleveland fell to 6-4 when he plays and 5-1 when he’s out. O’Neal was on the floor for much of the fourth quarter, when Cleveland cut a 24point, third-quarter deficit to seven. But even with Charlotte going the final 9 minutes without a field goal, the Cavaliers’ three-game winning streak was snapped. Stephen Jackson added 17 points and Nazr Mohammed had 13 points and six rebounds for the Bobcats.

Triad shoppers jam stores

Canada court rules for Wal-Mart TORONTO (AP) — The Supreme Court of Canada said Friday that Wal-Mart Stores Inc. was entitled to close a store in Quebec in 2005, seven months after workers voted to become the first WalMart in North America to unionize. The highest court in Canada ruled in a 6-3 margin Friday the multinational had the right to shut down the outlet north of Quebec City and lay off 190 employees.

GM: Opel to launch new models FRANKFURT (AP) — General Motors Co.’s top European official said Friday that a plan for Opel to be unveiled next month will include a schedule to lauch new models and a financial break-even target. Nick Reilly’s comments in an official GM blog came as the U.S. automaker finalizes its restructuring plan for Opel and British sister brand Vauxhall, a program it has said will result in about 9,000 job cuts across the continent.

ENTERPRISE STAFF, WIRE REPORT

TRIAD — The scene of crowded stores in High Point repeated itself throughout the Triad and the rest of the nation on Friday as shoppers eagerly ushered in the holiday shopping season, not only buying gifts, but bringing a gift to retailers. “We started researching the Black Friday ads online at the end of October, then double-checked when the ads came out in the Thanksgiving newspaper,” said Rosemary Lynch of Winston-Salem, who waited for six hours to be the first of more than 400 people in line when

Target opened at 5 a.m. Lynch was one of five family members chasing down sales on Hanes Mall Boulevard, which included teenagers who had nearly as long a wait for the midnight deals to begin at Toys ‘R Us. Topping their combined shopping lists were digital cameras, video games and a vacuum cleaner. While Triad shoppers turned out in force, many admitted to being on limited spending budgets, zeroing in on top bargains wherever they could find them. “We’re figuring to spend probably $400 less than last year, so every dollar we can save counts,” Lynch said.

But some U.S. shopppers seem to be willing to spend more this year, industry analysts say. “So far, we are seeing that consumer are willing to spend a little more than what was on their intended list,” said Marshal Cohen, chief retail industry analyst at NPD Group Inc. “This is a big gift for retailers. It was missing from the equation last year.” The nation’s retailers ushered in the traditional start of the holiday shopping season with expanded hours and deep discounts on everything from toys to TVs in hopes of getting consumers, many of whom have slashed spending to focus on ba-

US delays new ban on Internet gambling WASHINGTON (AP) — The Treasury Department and the Federal Reserve are giving U.S. financial institutions an additional six months to comply with regulations designed to ban unlawful Internet gambling. The two agencies said Friday the new rules, which were to take effect Dec. 1, would be delayed until June.

Walmart.com and Amazon.com also pushed to grab a piece of the action, pushing deals on Thursday and even earlier in the week. Several large retailers, including Walmart and many Old Navy locations, opened on Thanksgiving, hoping to make the most of the extra hours. Early reports from Best Buy and mall operator Taubman Centers offered some encouraging signs that consumers were buying more for themselves and that crowds were larger compared with last year. Toys R Us CEO Gerald Storch said that on average about 1,000 were in line for the midnight opening for each store.

Intervention threat halts dollar slide LONDON (AP) — Market fears of possible dollar buying from the Bank of Japan helped the U.S. currency recover its poise Friday after it fell to a 14-year low against the yen. News that Dubai is having trouble handling its debt has since Thursday spread fear through the global financial system, causing the dollar to spike higher against the euro and pound but slump against the yen, another traditional safe haven.

You can get some really good bargains if you have the money and willing to go where the best deals are today and be patient on gifts like clothes.” A survey released by the National Retail Federation projected that 6 million more people would go shopping between today and Sunday, or up to 134 million, than last year.

Japan’s recovery in jeopardy TOKYO (AP) — Japan got word Friday that prices fell again in October, just as a surging yen threatens to worsen the deflation that is undermining the country’s fragile economy. The core consumer price index, which excludes volatile fresh food, retreated at a near-record pace of 2.2 percent from a year earlier, the government said. Prices have now fallen for eight straight months — a trend that the government highlighted last week for the first time in three years. The news came amid heightened concern over the Japanese currency,

DILBERT

which hit a new 14-year high against the dollar in early Asian trading. The greenback touched 84.41 yen before recovering to low-86 yen levels. A strong yen and deflation represent a perilous combination for the world’s second-biggest economy. Falling prices, which plagued Japan during its “Lost Decade” in the 1990s, may sound like a good thing. But deflation can hamper economic growth by depressing company profits, sparking wage cuts and causing consumers to postpone purchases. It also can increase debt burdens.

Meanwhile, a strong yen erodes the overseas profits of Japan’s big exporters like Sony Corp. and Toyota Motor Corp. It can also aggravate deflation. Prices of imports and raw materials decline, which then pushes domestic consumer prices lower. “In the midst of deflation, such a sharp rise in the yen is a very serious problem and could drag down the economy,” said Fujio Mitarai, head of the Nippon Keidanren, the country’s biggest business group. “I certainly hope the government responds with emergency steps.”

GREENSBORO — Roll over or get tough? That’s the question Time Warner Cable began asking its subscribers, including more than 400,000 in the Triad, on Wednesday. The company has launched a campaign to target what it calls unfair price demands by programmers that can involve fee increases of more than 300 percent. The campaign includes a Web site called rolloverorgettough.com, at which subscribers can vote on how Time Warner should proceed in contract negotiations with News Corp., which owns Fox and other programming providers. When contracts expire, network owners have the right to pull their signals off the air. In the case of News Corp., get tough means viewers may not be able to watch such shows as “The Simpsons,” “House,” “24” and “American Idol,” plus some NFL games. Roll over will likely mean higher costs for subscribers.

“Our customers are really being held hostage over their favorite shows,” said Melissa Buscher, director of media relations for Time Warner in North Carolina. “We need (their) guidance. Should we pay up and raise our prices — and we are sensitive to that — or do we fight back and risk the networks taking away their programming?” Buscher said Time Warner has several contracts coming up for renewal by the end of the year but refused to identify the companies involved. However, The Wall Street Journal reported Wednesday the list includes News Corp., the Weather Channel and Sinclair Broadcast Group, which owns television stations. The article said network owners want to be fairly compensated. Buscher had a different take. “What makes it different this year is the weak advertising market,” she said. “Programmers are trying to make up revenue shortfalls by charging us more to carry their signals.” Buscher said other cable and satellite companies and video distributors face the same problems.

Stocks slide on Dubai debt concerns NEW YORK (AP) — Stocks skidded Friday as concern swept world markets that financial trouble in the Middle Eastern city-state of Dubai will upend a global economic recovery. Major stock indexes fell more than 1 percent from 13-month highs, including the Dow Jones industrial average, which lost 155 points in a shortened trading day but ended off its worst levels. Five stocks still fell for every one that rose at the New York Stock Exchange and all 30 stocks that make up the Dow slid. Investors’ broad retreat from riskier assets pushed Treasury prices higher. The dollar gained against most other major currencies as investors sought safety following steep drops in overseas markets. Commodities prices tumbled. Investors are worried

that a default by a government investment company in Dubai over $60 billion in debt payments could have a ripple effect in world financial markets. The fear is that losses in the small emirate, which has drawn wealthy tourists from around the globe in the past decade with its Las Vegas-in-theMiddle East appeal, could imperil a nascent economic rebound. The Dow fell 154.48, or 1.5 percent, to 10,309.92, after being down as much as 233 points. The broader Standard & Poor’s 500 index fell 19.14, or 1.7 percent, to 1,091.49, and the Nasdaq composite index fell 37.61, or 1.7 percent, to 2,138.44. Energy, materials and financial stocks posted some of the biggest losses as commodities fell and investors worried about bank balance sheets.

New York, London and Asia as investors flocked to the U.S. dollar as a safe haven. But earlier concerns that the crisis might trigger another major financial meltdown seemed to ease Friday after some analysts downplayed the risks for U.S. banks. U.S. stocks rebounded from their earlier lows as investors grew confident that the damage might be contained.

“I don’t think the collateral damage is going to be that great,” said Jeffrey Saut, chief investment strategist at Raymond James. “People will dig into this over the weekend, but I think balance sheets have healed enough to withstand a shock like this.” Still, the unfolding crisis in Dubai pointed to the vulnerability of the global economy despite recent signs of recovery.

A year after the global slump derailed Dubai’s explosive growth, the city-state’s main investment arm, Dubai World, revealed this week it was asking for at least a six-month delay on paying back its $60 billion debt. Major credit agencies responded by slashing debt ratings on Dubai’s state companies, saying they might consider the plan a default.

Apple’s iPhone set for South Korea splash SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — The iPhone’s arrival in South Korea is generating considerable buzz among consumers and industry watchers amid expectations it will shake up a market dominated by world-beating domestic manufacturers. “I can’t wait to get my iPhone,” said Na Hae-bin, a 30-year-old market researcher at an Internet company, who reserved one as soon as he could. “My heart was beating fast.” Judging from pre-or-

ders that started Nov. 22, Apple Inc.’s hit communications device appears set to make serious inroads in South Korea — home to some of the world’s most sophisticated mobile phone users. So far, KT Corp., the local mobile carrier which has contracted with Apple to sell service plans for the phone, says it has received 53,000 advance orders ahead of Saturday’s official launch. Such numbers have impressed analysts.

“This is phenomenal,” said Hwang Sung-jin, who monitors the industry at Prudential Investment & Securities Co. in Seoul. “The iPhone’s release will definitely stiffen competition for local companies such as Samsung and LG,” Hwang said. But he added it is difficult to assess how much of an inroad the iPhone will make in the growing domestic smartphone market, which he said totaled about 400,000 users at the

Dubai crisis jolts markets, but fears ease NEW YORK (AP) — Dubai’s debt crisis rattled world financial markets Friday, raising concerns that some banks could further tighten lending and hamper the global economic recovery. The possible spillover effects from Dubai fed fears that international banks could suffer big losses if the debt-laden emirate is forced to default. That sent stock and commodity markets tumbling in

WTO looks to boost trade, end recession GENEVA (AP) — The United States, China and other commercial powers will spearhead a new attempt next week to find ways to revive world trade and drag the global economy out of recession. The World Trade Organization has called trade chiefs from its 153 members to Geneva for the first ministerial conference in four years, at a time when global exports are falling rapidly and the WTO’s long-sought Doha liberalization round is limping into its ninth year. Instead of sensitive tariff and subsidy negotiations, the conference running Monday through Wednesday will focus on the big picture — stabilizing and rejuvenating commerce in the face of increased protectionism, unemployment and exporting of jobs.

Crude prices fall on Dubai debt jitters NEW YORK (AP) — Shades of the roiling energy markets that were set off last year by the crisis on Wall Street emerged again Friday with crude seeing the largest percentage drop in prices since January. The sell-off this time followed troubling news from Dubai, which asked lenders for a six-month reprieve on payments for about $60 billion in debt. Benchmark crude for January delivery fell $2.20 to $75.76 on Nymex by midday Friday.

Agriculture, livestock futures fall CHICAGO (AP) — Agriculture futures fell early Friday on the Chicago Board of Trade. Wheat for March delivery dropped 10.5 cents to $5.61 a bushel; March corn shed 7.5 cents to $4.005 a bushel; March oats tumbled 6.75 cents to $2.6475 a bushel; and January soybeans slumped 14.5 cents to $10.40 a bushel. Meanwhile, beef and pork futures also fell on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange.

2010 Nissan Armada is 1 big SUV BY ANN M. JOB THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NUTS & BOLTS

Large sport utility vehicles aren’t as fashionable as they once were. So today’s buyers of big SUVs are apt to be the people who really need them – for towing horse trailers, boats and motorhomes and for carrying large groups of people. The 2010 Nissan Armada handles all these tasks capably yet drives like a smaller vehicle than it is. Body motions for this 17.3foot-long SUV are wellmanaged, and despite the Armada’s two-ton-plus weight, the ride is comfortable and controlled. The Armada’s 317horsepower, 5.6-liter V-8 is powerful, allowing for a towing capacity of 9,100 pounds with optional towing package. Plus, there’s generous room inside the eight-passenger Armada, enough for people in the first and second rows to stretch their legs and for smaller adults to be accommodated in the third row. Maximum cargo space is a healthy 97.1 cubic feet. Pricing is competitive for the segment. Manufacturer’s suggested retail price, including destination charge, for a base,

AP

The 2010 Armada Titanium 4x4 features a 317-horsepower, 5.6-liter V-8 engine. two-wheel drive, 2010 Armada is the same as for 2009: $38,010. This compares with $39,480 for a 2010 Toyota Sequoia with 310-horsepower V-8 and $42,440 for a 2010 GMC Yukon XL 1500 with 320-horsepower V-8. The lowest starting MSRP, including destination charge, for a 2010 Armada with four-wheel

drive is $43,610 – which compares with $42,705 for the four-wheel-drive Sequoia, and $45,280 for the similar Yukon XL. Based on the sturdy, fully boxed platform of the Nissan Titan full-size pickup truck, the Armada has attractive styling and an immense presence on the road. Walking up to the 6-foot4 Armada, I was startled to

discover that the top of the hood was at my nose level. Thankfully, standard running boards helped me get inside, where I could see the road and vehicles in front of me easily. It is a commanding view, way above the pavement. The robust V-8 is named Endurance by Nissan officials, has dual overhead cams and produces 385 foot-pounds of torque at 3,400 rpm.

Right at startup, passengers hear the deep, strong engine sounds. Some people may prefer a quieter engine, but I liked hearing the confident sounds of power from this engine. The V-8 never stressed in its duties and merged the Armada into city and highway traffic without fuss. There was just a bit of coasting when I’d let up on the accelerator pedal.

2010 Nissan Armada Titanium 4X4 BASE PRICE: $37,210 for 4X2 SE; $42,140 for 4X2 Titanium; $42,810 for 4X4 SE; $44,940 for 4X4 Titanium AS TESTED: $45,960. TYPE: Front-engine, four-wheel drive, eightpassenger, full-size sport utility vehicle ENGINE: 5.6-liter, double overhead cam V-8 MILEAGE: 12 mpg (city), 18 mpg (highway) TOP SPEED: NA LENGTH: 207.7 inches WHEELBASE: 123.2 inches CURB WEIGHT: 5,841 pounds BUILT AT: Canton, Miss. OPTIONS: Floor mats and rear cargo mat $220 This V-8 uses regular unleaded gasoline, not pricey premium. Fuel economy for the fourwheel-drive test Armada is rated 12 miles per gallon in city driving and 18 mpg on the highway, which compares with 12/19 mpg in similarly equipped Chevrolet Suburban and GMC Yukon XL models.
