Police said the store was robbed by two black males in their late teens or early 20s who were last seen running northbound behind the store.

HIGH POINT – Two local law enforcement officials will participate at noon today in a discussion about the use of stun guns in the public schools. The panel discussion at the High Point YWCA at 112 Gatewood Ave. is sponsored by the High Point Human Relations Department and YWCA of High Point as part of a “Front Porch Conversations” series. High Point Police Chief Jim Fealy and Guilford County Sheriff BJ Barnes are scheduled to participate. Fealy said Wednesday he agreed several months ago to meet with the commission to discuss the general use of stun guns. Commission members asked Fealy to attend the event, Fealy said in a press release, and his appearance was not prompted by the police department. The meeting is one of several Fealy has attended over the past year concerning stun guns. The panel discussions,

held on third Thursdays, are designed to help keep the public informed and to build multicultural literacy. The meeting follows a request by school district officials earlier this month for the same law enforcement officials to meet with them to discuss stun guns. The weapons became controversial again after a school resource officer used a Taser stun gun on a female student at Ragsdale High in September. The school district contracts with the law enforcement agencies to provide school resource officers at almost every middle and high school. Nearly all the officers are armed with a Taser. While deputies have carried the weapons since 2007, High Point school resource officers were equipped with stun guns for the first time this year. A representative of Taser International, a stun-gun maker, and a American Civil Liberties Union lawyer also are expected to attend the session.

GUILFORD COUNTY – Investigators believe they know the identity of a man found Tuesday by a survey crew in a wooded area at 4108 Hicone Road in Greensboro. With the help of the Anthropology Department at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, Guilford County Sheriff’s Department investigators tentatively identified the
skeletal remains Wednesday as Henry Wilson, who went missing from the Greensboro bus station in December 2004. The sheriff’s department has notified a family member who will offer a DNA match. A team headed by Carlina De La Cova of the UNCG Anthropology Department provided investigators with this profile: An African-American male; 40 to 50 years of
age, or older; over 6 feet tall and suffering from severe arthritis. De La Cova also provided dental care information and previous injuries to the skeleton. Investigators used missing persons reports and a surveillance photo taken at the bus station to focus on Wilson. Clothing pictured in the surveillance photo matched clothing found at the scene.

Israel brushes off criticism over Jerusalem JERUSALEM – Israel broke ground on a new housing complex for Jews in east Jerusalem on Wednesday, brushing off President Barack Obama’s criticism that construction in the disputed part of the holy city undermines efforts to relaunch Mideast peace talks. The groundbreaking came a day after Israel defied American, European and Palestinian demands to stop settlement activity by announcing it will press forward with construction of 900 apartments in another Jewish area in east Jerusalem.
Clinton: U.S. will keep pushing for reform KABUL – U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton stressed Wednesday the United States will keep pressing the Afghan government to crack down on rampant corruption, saying the American military cannot defeat militancy without the help of a strong partner. Clinton arrived in the Afghan capital on the eve of President Hamid Karzai’s inauguration, during which he will make a speech that many hope will outline concrete commitments to reform.
Iran rejects deal on sending uranium abroad TEHRAN, Iran – Iran will not ship its low-enriched uranium out of the country for processing, its foreign minister said Wednesday, once again rejecting a U.N. plan aimed at thwarting any attempt by Tehran to make nuclear weapons. Instead, Foreign Minister Manochehr Mottaki countered with a proposal certain to fall short of Western demands. “We will definitely not send our 3.5-percent enriched uranium out of the country,” Mottaki told the semiofficial ISNA news agency. But he added: “That means a simultaneous fuel swap could be considered inside Iran.”
National vote faces likely delay in Iraq BAGHDAD – Iraq’s path toward political stability after years of war threatened to veer off course Wednesday when a vice president vetoed part of a key election law, a move likely to delay a national vote slated for January. The United States has linked the pace of its military drawdown to the vote, but the top U.S. commander in Iraq told reporters the schedule was on track for now.

Obama, Lee accentuate the positive SEOUL, South Korea (AP) – America’s relations with South Korea, a crucial Asian ally, are on an upswing as President Barack Obama meets with President Lee Myung-bak today, though a stalled trade agreement is still a concern for the economic powerhouses. Obama, winding up his weeklong Asian journey, is expected to emphasize the two nations’ unified efforts to prod a defiant North Korea out of its nuclear weapons program. He’s also welcoming South Korea’s return to helping U.S. efforts in Afghanistan. Obama landed Wednesday night in South Korea, embarking on perhaps the easiest leg of his whirlwind four-country Asian trip that has taken him away from Washington for the longest stretch of his presidency. He made stops in Tokyo, Singapore and China.

Maersk Alabama repels 2nd pirate attack with guns NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) – Somali pirates attacked the Maersk Alabama on Wednesday for the second time in seven months and were thwarted by private guards on board the U.S.-flagged ship who fired off guns and a highdecibel noise device. A U.S. surveillance plane was monitoring the ship as it continued to its destination on the Kenyan coast, while a pirate said that the captain of a ship hijacked Monday with 28 North Korean crew members on board had died of wounds.
Pirates hijacked the Maersk Alabama in April and took ship captain Richard Phillips hostage, holding him at gunpoint in a lifeboat for five days. Navy SEAL sharpshooters freed Phillips while killing three pirates in a daring nighttime attack. Four suspected pirates in a skiff attacked the ship again on Wednesday around 6:30 a.m. local time, firing on the ship with automatic weapons from about 300 yards (meters) away, a statement from the U.S. Fifth Fleet in Bahrain said.

The president, in a series of TV interviews during his trip to Asia, said those offended by the legal rights accorded Mohammed by virtue of his facing a civilian trial rather than a military tribunal won’t find it “offensive at all when he’s convicted and when the death penalty is applied to him.�

Attorney General Eric Holder pauses while testifying on Capitol Hill Wednesday before the Senate Judiciary Committee oversight hearing on the Justice Department. Obama, who is a lawyer, quickly added that he did not mean to suggest he was prejudging the outcome of Mohammed’s trial. “I’m not going to
be in that courtroom,� he said. “That’s the job of the prosecutors, the judge and the jury.� The president said that experienced prosecutors
in the case who specialize in terrorism have offered assurances that “we’ll convict this person with the evidence they’ve got, going through our system.�

Reid sets markers for health care debate WASHINGTON (AP) – Setting up a historic year-end health care debate, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid unveiled long-awaited legislation Wednesday night to extend coverage to all but 6 percent of eligible Americans and bar private industry from denying insurance because of pre-existing medical conditions. The Democrat’s $849 billion measure is designed to remake the nation’s health care system, relying on cuts in future Medicare spending to cover costs – as well as on higher payroll taxes for the well-to-do and a new levy on patients undergoing elective cosmetic surgery.
Aides said the mammoth, 2,074-page bill would reduce deficits by $127 billion over a decade and by as much as $650 billion in the 10 years that follow, citing as-yet-unreleased estimates by the Congressional Budget Office. “Tonight begins the last leg of this journey,� said Reid, less than two weeks after the House approved its version of health care reform. President Barack Obama welcomed Reid’s action, saying, “Today, thanks to the Senate’s hard work, we’re closer than ever to enacting solutions to these problems. I look forward to working with the Senate and House to get a finished bill to my desk as soon as possible.�

Grice is the correct choice for Davidson sheriff Hasn’t it been wonderful to have a professional and respected sheriff for Davidson County for the past 51⁄2 years, without all the hype and crazy antics of our past sheriff? I’m not a very political person, but this is one election that I will be working to bring back the best candidate for the job of sheriff of Davidson County – David Grice. I’m not even a registered Republican, but rather an independent, but I will be stating that I want to vote in the Republican primary in May, in the hopes of keeping Sheriff David Grice as sheriff. (Independents take note, you can make a difference in the primary race in May by stating which party you want to vote for when you go to vote). Sheriff Grice has quietly done his job, and a very good job too, without all the ridiculous hoop-la our county was known for before. Sheriff Grice has worked hard for this county. He has deputies that

Democrats weren’t enthused in recent Greensboro election The election of 2009 is over, and now is the time for thoughtful analysis. Republican candidates captured the governorships of New Jersey and Virginia, clearly a positive sign for the GOP after a long drought. More interesting are the results of the Greensboro election. The two major candidates for mayor polled 34,313 votes, the Science
Museum bond gathered 33,495 votes and the City Council atlarge average vote was 15,040 votes with six candidates vying for three seats. It is obvious that the mayoral race – the major political race – did not turn out many more voters than the museum bond issue. This lack of a larger voter turnout for the mayor’s race helps explain the surprise defeat of longtime member of Greensboro City Council and Mayor Yvonne Johnson. With her longtime service, wide name recognition, more campaign funds, more volunteers and a seasoned campaign organization and staff, her defeat is attributable, in part, to a lack of enthusiasm and participation on the part of Democratic Party voters.

e realize a considerable amount of work needs to be done before changes to the Westchester Drive bus route actually takes place, but City Council took a step in the right direction recently by approving Hi tran plans. Currently, the Westchester Drive route has bus stops on only one side of the five-lane wide thoroughfare, which means many riders often have to battle heavier vehicular traffic to cross to the bus stops. Mark McDonald, city transportation director, said the two bus routes eventually will enhance safety while serving passengers along Westchester. Good move!

t wasn’t just a routine name change. Last week, the High Point Planning and Zoning Commission returned the historic name Washington Street, effective next March, to the city avenue that for about 40 years has been known as Washington Drive. But in addition to reclaiming part of that street’s history, the move was a reminder that little has occurred over the past year with the plan to redevelop and revitalize areas along Washington Street and in that neighborhood. Hundreds of thousands of dollars were spent in 2007 and 2008 studying the Washington Street area as the first segment of the massive Core City Plan revitalization effort, which has since been renamed the City Project. Consultants, city officials and community leaders and residents participated in the planning process. The effort produced a revitalization plan that by any measure was pretty impressive and certainly could be a springboard for monumental changes to the area. For maybe a century, Washington Street has been a business and social center for High Point’s African-American community. In the last few decades, however, the need for improvements to properties along the street and for revitalization of the area has grown. Interest by property owners, investors and the community in general for doing that has not. An extensive, doable plan exits for revitalizing the Washington Street area and restoring it to its earlier glory. But the willpower and the cash for doing so has not surfaced – just yet. A recapturing of that area’s cultural and ethnic history awaits. Maybe last week’s name change also will be a spark that again ignites the Washington Street redevelopment effort.

Sammy Sosa must be seeking a whiter shade of male
D
ear Sammy Sosa: Are you happy with yourself now? Are you more confident and self-assured? When you look in the mirror, do you like yourself better, now that you are white? As you know, photos taken of you at an awards show earlier this month have the whole country talking. Last time we saw you, you were a brown man from the Dominican Republic, star slugger for the Chicago Cubs. Now you are white, facing the camera with a complexion strikingly reminiscent of Dracula’s. You claim you’ve been using a skin-softening cream and that it, combined with the bright lights under which the photos were taken, made your face look whiter than it is. Which is an extraordinarily lame excuse. Indeed, if that excuse was a horse, you’d shoot it. While it is admirably metro-sexual of you to be so concerned with the softness of your skin, I must say: if I slathered something on my face that was supposed to render it tender and it left me looking like the Joker instead, I’d sue. You, on the other hand, are reported to be considering an endorsement deal. “Skin softening” my fanny. “Skin bleaching” is more like it. So I want to know if it’s made you happy, being white, if it’s given you what you felt you lacked. Me, I’d have thought you already had the brass ring by both hands: you were a handsome sports hero, had made beaucoup dollars, had the requisite gorgeous wife. What could be missing? Whiteness, apparently. You know how transsexuals will sometimes say they never felt at home in their original gender? Was that what it was like for you? Was there always a white man inside you trying to get out? Sorry if I can’t relate, Sammy, but I’m a child of the era when James Brown sang, “Say it loud! I’m black and I’m proud!” It was a seminal moment in the history of a nation which had always taken for granted that negritude and pride were mutually exclusive. Those years found black people shrugging off the idea that they should be judged by what other people deemed beautiful. It was like a
butterfly leaving a cocoon ... if butterflies wore Afros and dashikis. We walked with a brand new swagger in that era, Sammy, having buried the Negro – and all the attendant connotations of obsequious servitude OPINION and knowing your place – for good. From now on, we would Leonard be black. “Black is beautiful, Pitts baby,” we said. ■■■ And it was possible to believe something fundamental had changed, that the Rubicon had been well and truly crossed. So you can imagine what a bitter pill the last 20 years or so have been for some of us, what a harsh lesson in the changeability of change. We spent those years watching Michael Jackson use creams and surgery to scrape Africa from his face; listening as “entertainers” made fortunes selling coonish caricatures of black life; cringing as black children decreed academic achievement synonymous with “acting white;” aching as teenage filmmaker Kiri Davis re-enacted the old “doll test” and found black children still choose white dolls as prettier or more desirable than black ones; and fuming as black people clung, stubbornly and stupidly, to the custom of referring to themselves by a certain six-letter epithet that begins with N. But I’ll bet you don’t see any of that when you look in the mirror. I’ll bet you don’t see 400 years of internalized inferiority, little girls crying for lack of “good hair,” black folks obsessively categorizing themselves by a color scheme which holds, in the words of the old saying, the lighter, the brighter, the better. No, I’ll bet you see a face you’ve always dreamt of seeing – white and smiling you. And I’ll bet you’re not embarrassed in the least. But that’s all right, Sammy. I’m embarrassed for you.

She’s ‘Going Rogue’ and stirring up the faithful but they will ensure that Palin will be able to connect with the anxieties of blue-collar America – and women. As long as the economy remains in a downturn, you cannot underestimate the degree to which middle-class voters will be drawn to her folksy, outsider shtick. Her ability to coral the middle-class and the religious right puts Palin in the conversation for 2012. Sadly, it also emphasizes just how bereft of ideas the Republican Party has become.

ith painful fits and struggles, Sarah Palin has birthed her way back into the national spotlight. Her memoir, “Going Rogue,� made the bestseller list online more than a month before it was even released. Earlier this week, she was on Oprah to pimp her book, and to proclaim her return to the political zeitgeist. So, should we take Palin seriously as a 2012 GOP candidate? On “This Week� with George Stephanopoulos, round table commentator David Brooks was harshly dismissive of the idea, calling Palin a “joke.� Fellow commentator George Will was a little more restrained, observ-
recently read an interesting quote by a young adult named Sam Lefkowitz: “When asked if my cup is half-full or half-empty, my only response is that I am thankful I have a cup.� That seems to be the prevailing thought these days. It just feels like a “different� kind of Thanksgiving season this year, don’t you think? There are many jobless and struggling in the face of our tanked economy. Others are facing the stress of health or family issues. Then there are the tragedies in recent days that have rocked our sense of security and enraged us to our cores. The 7-year-old girl in Florida, abducted on her way home from school, murdered and dumped in a landfill a few weeks ago, broke our hearts. This week, the tragic death of the 5-year-old Fayetteville girl has been incomprehensible. How could any mother hand her little daughter over to someone knowing what would happen to her? How will those families and many others facing tragedy and difficulty find anything to give thanks for next week? How can any of us, in light of the overwhelming despair we hear on the news each day, find a way to give thanks? The answer to that is that we have to. Living in daily dread is not living at all. Even if it’s just the sun coming up in the morning, we all must focus on the good around us and not the evil. In case you feel alone in your despair this year, know that even the Bible’s Psalmist recorded in several places his depression and dismay at his current circumstances. In Psalms 42:5, we read: “Why are you downcast, O my soul? Why so disturbed within me? Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise Him, my Savior and my God.� When hope seems lost, we must regain our focus on who God is – the

Thousands cheer Palin as book tour kicks off GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (AP) – College students ditched class, employees skipped work and some huddled in the cold overnight just to make sure they got an orange wristband Wednesday that would let them meet Sarah Palin. Thousands gathered outside a Barnes & Noble and chanted “Palin! Palin! Palin!� for the kickoff of the former Republican vice presidential candidate’s “Going Rogue� book tour, which has taken on the feel of a political pep rally. “She’s a person of faith, she has a family, she has gone through a lot of the trials and tribulations we have. I’d vote for her in a heartbeat,� said Lana Smith, a dispatcher at a bus company who took the day off work and had been waiting in line since 5:30 a.m.
“Someday I hope her name is up in lights and I’ll have had the privilege of meeting her,� Smith said. Country music played as Palin’s tour bus, painted to resemble the cover of her book, pulled up to the Woodland Mall in Grand Rapids. “I just can’t tell you how good it is to be back in Michigan,� the former Alaska governor told the crowd, which chanted “Palin! Palin!� “Alaska and Michigan have so much in common, with the huntin’ and the fishin’ and the hockey moms, and just the hardworking, patriotic Americans who are here,� Palin said. Wearing a “Palin Power� bumper sticker across her red sweat shirt, 72-year-old Rachel Baragar praised Palin’s honesty and downto-earth manner.

People wait in line at Woodland Mall in Kentwood, Mich., on Wednesday just after sunrise, to get a bracelet at Barnes & Noble that allowed them to meet Sarah Palin and get a signed copy of her new book, “Going Rogue.� “She could be your next door neighbor,� said Baragar, of Caledonia. The memoir was released Tuesday but has topped best-seller lists for weeks.
Sebelius: Mammograms still vital in saving lives WASHINGTON (AP) – Women should continue getting regular mammograms starting at age 40, Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius said Wednesday, moving to douse confusion caused by a taskforce recommendation two days earlier. Sebelius issued her statement following a government panel’s recommendation on Monday, that said most women don’t need mammograms in their 40s and should get one every two years start-
ing at 50. That recommendation was a break with the American Cancer Society’s long-standing position that women should get screening mammograms starting at age 40. The task force does “not set federal policy and they don’t determine what services are covered by the federal government,� Sebelius said. Medicare, which covers older Americans and some younger ones who are disabled, provides women on Medicare coverage for an annual mammogram at

Sebelius noted that there has been debate about the age at which routine mammograms should begin, and how often they should be given. “The task force has presented some new evidence for consideration but our policies remain unchanged,� she said. “Indeed, I would be very surprised if any private insurance company changed its mammography coverage decisions as a result of this action.�

Dell begins announced layoffs ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT
WINSTON-SALEM – Officials with Dell Inc. said Wednesday was the last day of work for 400 of the more than 900 workers losing jobs at the southeastern Forsyth County manufacturing plant. The rest of the employees are scheduled to work until January, when Dell closes the plant opened with fanfare four years ago. Dell spokeswoman Donna Oldham told WXII-TV this week that some of the laidoff workers already have found new jobs and left the company. The laid-off workers are getting severance packages equal to two months of pay plus an additional week of pay for every year worked. They also will receive health insurance coverage for several months and job placement assis-

tance, WXII reports. Dell announced last month it was closing the facility, which received the largest pledge of state and local economic incentives in North Carolina history. Had Dell kept the plant open, the Texas-based computer conglomerate could have received incentives of more than $300 million. The company has repaid $26 million in incentives to the city of Winston-Salem, Forsyth County and other local entities. State officials have indicated they expect to get back $1.5 million of the $8.5 million that was paid to Dell – the remainder of the state incentives to the company wasn’t legally required to be reimbursed if Dell closed the Winston-Salem operation early. City officials have indicated they are working to find a new tenant for the building.

CVB approves N.C. Marathon incentive BY PAM HAYNES ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
HIGH POINT – The United Healthcare North Carolina Marathon will receive another event booking incentive from the High Point Convention and Visitor’s Bureau next year. An incentive for $10,000 was passed at the bureau’s meeting on Wednesday as officials said the event has a significant impact on the city. According to the bureau’s figures, it is estimated to bring 3,000 people to High Point with an economic impact of $503,040. The N.C. Marathon received an incentive for the same amount in March, when it was first relocated to High Point from Greensboro. It is scheduled for March 20, 2010.

ber and October had also been re-booked for the coming year. The High Point Classic DanceSport Championship, held Oct. 2325, said it would return to High Point again in 2010. It brought an estimated 750 attendees to the city who booked 220 hotel room nights, according to the bureau. “Sales activity for September and October performed very well,” Wells said. Other tourism events included the Miss North Carolina USA Pageant Forum that brought 200 attendees Sept. 11-13 and the International Natural Body Fitness Atlantic Coast Body Building competition held Oct. 9-11, which brought 150 attendees to the city.

‘Operation Christmas Star’
Parents ask for food; school responds with project to help families in need BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
ARCHDALE – As Sally Voelkert viewed Christmas wish lists from parents this year, she noticed some unfamiliar requests from families. Instead of asking for toys for their children, parents are actually asking for food. Responding to that need, Voelkert, an Archdale Elementary School guidance counselor, came up with a way to help families in need this Christmas. “I’m the school counselor, so it’s part of my job here to get families some support at the holidays,” Voelkert said. “One of the big things people have asked for is food, which has been the first time in my 25 years as a counselor that I’ve seen that on a Christmas wish list for families. I had said something to my husband at home one night and he said, ‘We have to do something.’ ” Voelkert has led efforts to plan the school’s first “Operation Christmas Star,”

A benefit concert by Soul Biscuit, a regionally-known beach, Motown and oldies band, will take place in the gym. Admission to the event will be non-perishable food items. “Our goal is to be able to send food home with all the families that we’ve gotten sponsorship for here,

and share the extra with Community Outreach of Archdale-Trinity,” Voelkert said, adding that the school will help 116 kids at Christmas. According to Voelkert, students are joining in the effort to help the community by creating ornaments that can be purchased for a donation of $5. All monies collected through the project will go to purchase gift cards to local grocery stores so they can be distributed to families in need. “I think it’s a good project,” said Archdale Elementary fifth-grader Dylan Knight, who has made three ornaments. “I think it’s helpful for everybody who needs it and I have a feeling that it’s going to do very well.” For next weekend’s concert, the school is currently looking for door prizes to be given out during the evening. To donate a door prize, contact Voelkert at 431-9121. dignasiak@hpe.com | 888-3657

Husband charged with wife’s murder MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE
OXFORD – More than a year after a young mother from Granville County was reported missing, her husband has been charged with her murder. William Scott Morris, 35, of Creedmoor was charged with firstdegree murder late Tuesday, according to the arrest warrant. Authorities think he killed his wife, Kelly Currin Morris, then 28, in September 2008. Granville County Sheriff Brindell Wilkins Jr. said Wednesday that his department received information Monday that led them to Kelly MorrisB’ skeletal remains off Sam Moss Hayes Road north of Creedmoor. She was identified through dental records, Wilkins said at an press conference. He did not provide other details about the case. “We’re doing the best we can,� Wilkins said. “I don’t want to mess up anything we’re doing by things getting out.� Morris’ skeletal remains were found just inside a fence at Tar River Fox Pen, a private hunting preserve outside Creedmoor, said Al Mignacci, who helped organize searches for Morris. Hundreds of volunteers searched for her in the days and weeks following her disappearance. Kelly Morris vanished sometime after her stepmother saw her the night of Sept. 3 and before firefighters rushed to her house in Stem the next day to put out a fire. She had not shown up at work that day. Firefighters found no trace of her in the charred house. The next day, deputies found Kelly Morris’ car, with purse and keys inside, abandoned in an unfinished subdivision nearby. Authorities later determined that someone had torched the house she shared with her husband and her two daughters. William Morris is being held without bail. He made a brief appearance in court this afternoon and is not scheduled back in court until Dec. 2. The marriage of William and Kelly Morris produced one child, a daughter who is now six. On Tuesday morning, a District Court judge granted custody of the child to Kelly Morris’ parents.
Pentagon releases ID of missing soldier MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE
FAYETTEVILLE – The Pentagon identified a Fort Bragg soldier missing in Afghanistan as Sgt. Brandon T. Islip, 23, of Richmond, Va. The 82nd Airborne Division soldier has been unaccounted for since Nov. 4, when he disappeared while on a resupply mission. Sgt. Benjamin W. Sherman, 21, of Plymouth, Mass., was killed on the mission. Islip’s status is listed as duty status whereabouts unknown. Military officials told Patricia Sherman, the widow of the dead soldier, that her husband was one of two soldiers swept away while trying to retrieve air dropped supplies from a river in the remote, Taliban-infested province of Badghis. The soldiers were members of the 1st Battalion, 508th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 4th Brigade Combat Team. Search-and-recovery efforts are continuing, and the incident is under investigation, the Pentagon said.

RALEIGH (AP) – An environmental group says North Carolina’s future with solar energy can be bright. The Environment North Carolina Research and Policy Center said Wednesday the state could generate solar power equal to 14 percent of its electricity needs by 2030. The group’s report says North Carolina’s 250 days of sunlight a year makes it a good place to capture energy from above without generating more pollution. The study’s findings are based on examining the potential for installing solar panels in each of the 100 counties. Environment North Carolina says solar power installations grew six-fold last year and could increase another six-fold by the end of next year.

S.C. offers tax-free weekend on guns COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) – South Carolina shoppers will get a second chance to buy tax-free guns. The state Revenue Department sent out a reminder Wednesday of the upcoming “Second Amendment Weekend.� The 48hour tax break begins just after midnight the Friday after Thanksgiving. Shoppers will pay no state or local sales taxes on handguns, rifles and shotguns, which can tally 9 percent. Taxes still apply to ammunition and accessories. South Carolina had the nation’s first tax holiday on guns last year, after legislators tacked it on to a tax break on energy-efficient appliances. But the state Supreme Court threw out
that law in May because of an unrelated energy amendment. Lawmakers restored the tax break as a one-time event in the budget this year. Louisiana followed this year with its own sales tax holiday for hunters in September. That break went further, applying to any item that can be used for hunting or fishing, including off-road vehicles, airboats, animal feed and ear plugs. South Carolina is the only state to designate a tax-free weekend during two of the year’s biggest shopping days. How much shoppers saved in the gun-friendly state last Thanksgiving weekend is unknown. State economic officials
But the director of a estimated it would cost the nonprofit that advocates state about $15,000. The National Rifle Asso- for changes in South Carolina’s tax structure said ciation praises the idea. “there is no good tax reason to have a gun sales tax holiday.� “It isn’t tax policy. It’s gun policy,� said John Ruoff of South Carolina Fair Share. “Our state tax system is sufficiently screwed up that instead of taking a serious look at it ... we keep doing stuff like a gun sales tax holiday, or a going-back-to-school tax holiday, all of which are very shortsighted tax policies or kneejerk pander“It allows gun owners ing.� His group argues the in tough economic times to stock up on the hunt- state unfairly relies on ing season and holiday sales and excise taxes, season,� said NRA spokes- which disproportionately affect the poor. woman Alexa Fritts.

Dear Abby: My husband of 25 years ADVICE died last year. How Dear long do Abby I need to ■■■maintain ties with his family? Must I still give gifts at Christmas and birthdays to all his siblings, nieces and nephews? What I need to know is how to ease out of this without offending them. His parents are still alive, and the most I want to do is send a card at Christmas. – Ready to Move On in Canada Dear Ready to Move On: No law says that you “have to� maintain a gift-giving relationship with your late husband’s relatives. It would be nice, however, to send something to the nieces and nephews – if only a few dollars and some kind words included in a card. The message that speaks loudest to me in your letter is the one you did not directly put into words – that after 25 years of marriage to your husband, you had no meaningful connection with his family. An acceptable way to begin stepping back would be to explain to them that,

because of your reduced circumstances, you are no longer able to send the usual gifts and will be sending cards during these holidays. Dear Abby: Thank you for all the great advice you have given over the years. I have enjoyed reading your column since I can remember. When I was in high school nine years ago, I gave birth to a beautiful baby whom I placed in an open adoption with a great family. I am now in my 20s. I find that if I mention the adoption, the conversation sometimes becomes awkward. I don’t like to mention it with acquaintances because it’s something very personal and I am somewhat sensitive about it. When people ask me if I have children, what would be the appropriate response? – Birth Mother in Minnesota Dear Birth Mother: You are under no obligation to give chapter and verse about your personal history to anyone who is only an acquaintance. If you are asked if you have children, just say no because you are not raising any.

Dear Friend: Selfishness? You are both consenting adults. You can do what you want. Many successful relationships have begun with two people supporting each other through a painful period – and I don’t consider that “selfish� at all. What I AM having trouble understanding is why you haven’t begun divorce proceedings from your emotionally abusive husband. Once that’s started, you should have no reason to have
any second thoughts at all.

Guilt destroys comfort couple finds together ear Abby: Is there anything wrong with having a lover solely for the purpose of sex? He is grieving for his late wife (my best friend), and I am separated from my husband. We’re both lonely and have supported each other through our pain. A few weeks ago we decided to become lovers. We both have our eyes open, and we don’t expect anything out of this except a friendship with benefits. I am satisfying his needs, and he is making me remember the woman I used to be before I was emotionally beaten down by my husband. I see myself as enjoying the best of both worlds: I’m finding myself again, and I don’t have to answer to anyone but me. So, Abby, what do you think? I guess I’m looking for some validation for our selfishness. – Friend With Benefits

Women are changing the world philanthropic activity and status was tied to a husband’s wealth and position. This model GIVING 101 has changed forever. Paul Currently Lessard women ■■■control more than 50 percent of the investment wealth in the United States, and they are learning to leverage these assets to create positive change. We now see women who have served in prominent corporate positions starting their own companies, creating more wealth and supporting women’s initiatives.
Why is this so important? With the profound shifts in our global economy, women and children are being disproportionately affected for the worse. There has never been a time in our history in which the vision and leadership of women can have such a profound influence locally, nationally and internationally. I am convinced that bringing women together, using philanthropy as the vehicle, to create economic and social change has the capacity to make a profound difference. As a foundation, we have been planning the establishment of a High Point Women’s Fund that would be funded, managed and granted

Imagine the impact that is possible when a young girl growing up in poverty is partnered with women who exude independence, intelligence and achievement. It’s the kind of significant influence that alters lives and, by extension, communities forever. As my wonderfully independent and assertive daughter, Taylor, likes to remind me from time to time, girls do rule.

ear Dr. Donohue: I recently developed a prolapsed bladder. While I know it is not life-threatening, I want to take care of it ASAP. I am 74 and very active. My gynecologist wants me to do Kegel exercises and be fitted with a pessary. He doesn’t want to do surgery. I would like the surgery while I am healthy enough to recover in a timely manner and get it over with. Please give me your opinion. – B.C.
BLONDIE
The meaning of “prolapse” is “a dropping.” The bladder, uterus and rectum can prolapse. It happens mostly to women, and the reason is a weakening of pelvic muscles and ligaments. Age is one explanation. Childbirth is another. It’s a bit unusual to have a patient wanting surgery and the doctor wanting not to do it. Your doctor is a good man. He’s trying to hold off. You might never need an operation. The progression of a prolapse is unpredictable. In the meantime, do the Kegel exercises. Let me explain them for other women with the same problem and for women who lose urine when they cough, laugh or strain to move a heavy object. Women have to know what muscles to contract. They learn this by shutting off urine in midstream or by contracting the muscles they use to prevent the passage of gas. Those muscles should be squeezed tightly 10 consecutive times. The squeeze should be held for two seconds at

first. Then increase the hold time to four, six, eight and, finally, 10 seconds. The exerHEALTH cise routine is repeated Dr. Paul three to Donohue four times a ■■■ day. It takes a month or two before results are seen. Pessaries come in many shapes. They’re devices inserted into the vagina to prop up a falling organ. You have nothing to lose by putting off an operation and performing the Kegel exercises. You have everything to gain. As I said, you might never need an operation. Be grateful for the doctor you have. Dear Dr. Donohue: Once and for all, my husband and I need to put a disagreement to rest. Can a person with a pacemaker that’s been in for one year vacuum? He is a mason and uses a chipping gun, but he claims he should not vacuum. I am confused. – S.D. Most household appliances – including vacuum cleaners, microwave ovens, hair dryers and toasters – don’t interfere with the functioning of a pacemaker. Improperly grounded electric appliances held in close contact with the body might be troublesome. Heavyduty industrial motors that generate a powerful electromagnetic field can
disrupt pacemaker function. Unless there is something special about your husband’s pacemaker, a vacuum cleaner should not be a danger to him. To play it safe, check with the doctor’s office. Did he vacuum before he had the pacemaker? Maybe the noise frightens him. Dear Dr. Donohue: I have a two-pronged problem with my right foot. I have a Morton’s neuroma and tarsal tunnel syndrome. Cortisone injections did nothing for either. Both are painful. Is surgery the only answer? – KD. I addressed Morton’s neuroma quite recently, so it’s a bit soon to repeat. Have you tried a padded shoe insert? Tarsal tunnel syndrome is the foot’s equivalent of the hand’s carpal tunnel syndrome. In the foot’s case, the tibial nerve, located behind the bony bump (medial malleolus) on the big-toe side of the ankle, is trapped in tissue that squeezes it. Anti-inflammatory drugs like Aleve or Advil can relieve pain and reduce pressure by reducing inflammatory swelling. Heel pads help.
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.

“Seussical, the Musical” cast members include (from left) John Wilson as the Cat in the Hat, Lee Willard as Horton and Tori Galloway as JoJo.
Community Theatre production combines Dr. Seuss favorites BY VICKI KNOPFLER ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
H
IGH POINT – Imagine being a kid – or an adult – with the opportunity to become a Dr. Seuss character, at least on stage. A cast of 83, approximately 60 of whom are younger than 18, get to enter Seuss’ bizarre world when High Point Community Theatre stages “Seussical, the Musical” beginning tonight at the High Point Theatre. Community Theatre also will perform the musical for area school groups Friday morn-
Nearly all of the songs and spoken portions of ‘Seussical’ come straight from Seuss books. ing at the theater, in partnership with Carousel Theatre. Two of the play’s adult cast members said they’ve nearly reverted to children. “It’s two hours of just-plain fun,” said Lee Willard, who plays Horton. “It’s amazing,” said John Wilson, who plays The Cat in the Hat. “I love playing a character who can do anything in his Cat-in-the-Hat world. There is no over-the-top, and it’s great to use every ounce of energy in over-the-topness.” “Seussical” is a wild amalgam of nearly 20 Seuss tales, and the main story combines two Seuss books, “Horton Hears a Who” and “Horton Hatches an Egg.” Because there’s so much going on in the production, Cat in the Hat serves as the narrator to guide the audience, and he also is a character in the story. Horton, an elephant, discovers in the jungle a dust speck that is home to creatures known as the Whos. He places the speck on a clover leaf and carries the leaf with him to protect the Whos. The jungle creatures consider Horton insane, which leads to a line that’s as close to a moral of the story as “Seussical” comes. “A person’s a person no matter how small,” Horton says.

Lee Willard as Horton (center) poses with Meredith Leonard (left) and Gracey Falk, who both portray Whos. During his journey and adventures through the crazy Seuss world, Horton is conned into sitting on and hatching an egg in a nest at the top of a tree. Nearly all of the songs and spoken portions of “Seussical” come straight from Seuss books, and costumes and sets are designed to mimic what so many children have seen in those books. Wilson is delighted at the opportunity to don the Cat’s trademark red-and-white-striped hat and red bow tie, and he snickers about his tuxedo with “tails.” (Cat, tails. Get it?) “The Cat is the epitome of mischief, and he’s there to have a good time” Wilson said. Horton is the straight-man/elephant to the Cat’s over-the-topness, both actors said, and a big departure for Willard, who usually is cast as over-the-top characters. “Horton is the hero, the romantic lead, the moral center of the story,” Willard said. “And Horton is the one who ends up with the girl.”

YOUR COMMUNITY. YOUR NEWSPAPER.
LOS ANGELES (AP) – Kris Allen knows he’s not garnering as much attention as Adam Lambert – and that’s OK with him. Since foiling Lambert at the “American Idol” finale last May, the 24-year-old singer-songwriter from Conway, Ark., has not appeared on the cover of Rolling Stone magazine and declared he’s gay. His music can’t be heard during the credits of the apocalyptic action flick “2012.” And you won’t find him posing in a racy Details photo shoot with a naked woman. “I don’t mind,” an always modest Allen says while perched in “Idol” overlord Simon Fuller’s quiet office 10 stories above the Sunset Strip. “I think that’s how I went through the competition as well. I did my thing, and it worked out. And that’s how I’m going to do my music career. I’m just going to do my thing, what I like to do, and hopefully it works out.” His thing now is his self-titled album, which came out Tuesday, a week before Lambert’s “For Your Entertainment” is scheduled for release. As one might expect after watching his soulful “Idol” renditions of Kanye West’s “Heartless” and “Falling Slowly” from the indie musical “Once,” Allen’s album is filled with melodic ballads and toe-tapping rock tunes. Allen teamed with experienced producers like Toby Gad, Steve Kipner, Andrew Frampton and Saalam Remi, but contributed more than just his voice and guitar-andpiano-playing prowess. Allen’s name appears on the songwriting credits for all but four of the album’s 13 songs.

THURSDAY, NOV. 19, 2009 CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Kerri Strug, 32; Jodie Foster, 47; Meg Ryan, 48; Allison Janney, 50 HAPPY BIRTHDAY: Don’t let anyone push you into something you aren’t ready for or sure about. Keep things simple and stay in control. Stability will be required of you. Love may be on the line if you haven’t been attentive or your feelings have changed. Reevaluate your financial, personal and emotional situation and stir things up a bit. Your numbers are 5, 14, 17, 21, 27, 30, 46 ARIES (March 21-April 19): Discuss your plans and to find out as much as you can about a project that interests you or about someone you want to get to know better. A job opportunity will develop if you express your eagerness to take on whatever task is required. ★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Observe what everyone around you is up to. The experience and wisdom offered will help you make a vital decision concerning your beliefs. Look at past decisions and circumstances to help you make the right choice now. ★★★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Sort out any differences you have with a partner or someone you are planning to do something with before you start down that path. Emotional issues will surface if money comes into the picture. Be upfront. ★★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): Right now you are overreacting to everything going on around you. Instead of fretting, get to the bottom of what’s bothering you. If change is necessary, stop fighting it and you will see how much easier it is to get ahead. ★★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): The barter system will work well for you if you are a fair negotiator. You can both win and can form a good longterm partnership if you work together. You may feel like celebrating but don’t let your emotional exuberance cost you. ★★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Don’t let your emotions take over your personal life. Something bigger and better is just around the corner but don’t let anyone in on what is happening. Remain mysterious for now. ★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Talking about what you want to do and actually doing it are not the same thing. Get busy presenting, promoting and pushing. Your plan is feasible, but keeping it to yourself isn’t going to amount to much. ★★★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Don’t let uncertainty stop you. Live up to what’s expected of you and you will realize your true potential. Success is built on failures, so shoot for the stars and don’t look back. You have what it takes. ★★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You have the drive, discipline and determination to turn your plans into reality but, if you let someone interfere or sidetrack you, a costly mistake will be made. You can be successful if you stick to the task at hand and have the confidence to go it alone. ★★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Stay on top of things by taking care of matters yourself. As soon as you rely on someone else, a problem will develop. Dealing with institutions will be stressful if you are unprepared. ★★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Someone who has caught your emotional interest will puzzle you. Don’t let your heart rule your head. Proceed with caution and don’t make promises that may cause you legal or financial grief. ★★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Your erratic behavior will confuse people. Don’t rely on things being as they appear or on people doing what they say. Say as little as possible and you’ll keep everyone guessing while you perfect what you are working on. ★★★★

Cy the Cynic advises against putting all your eggs in one basket: He says they’ll last longer in the refrigerator. But Cy ignored his own counsel in today’s deal. As declarer at 3NT, Cy was pleased when dummy’s queen won the first heart. But Cy next let the queen of spades ride, and West took the king and continued hearts. Cy had only eight tricks, and when he eventually led a club, West produced the ace and took three hearts. Down one. “I could’ve played for West to have both the A-Q of clubs,” the Cynic said, “but to no avail.”
TRICK TWO Cy put his contract in one basket. He should lead a diamond to his hand at Trick Two and return a club toward dummy. If West plays low, Cy puts up the king, placing West with the ace for his overcall. Cy then tries the spade finesse and has nine tricks even when it loses. If West grabbed the first club to lead another heart, Cy would take the king of clubs next. When the queen fell, Cy would be home. If not, he could finesse in spades.

ANSWER: You have invitational strength, balanced pattern and a club stopper, hence jump to 2NT. If you’re vulnerable and have more to gain by bidding game, you might risk a leap to 3NT or a temporizing bid of two clubs. Your hand is much more powerful than if you held K 8 5, K J 4 3 2, 9 7, A 3 2. South dealer Both sides vulnerable
ONE STAR: It’s best to avoid conflicts; work behind the scenes or read a good book. Two stars: You can accomplish but don’t rely on others for help. Three stars: If you focus, you will reach your goals. Four stars: You can pretty much do as you please, a good time to start new projects. Five stars: Nothing can stop you now. Go for the gold.

Weaver eager for Q-school rebound T
he grueling trek toward the dream of becoming a PGA Tour player started last week for more than a thousand golfers. It continues this week at six sites across the country, with some 450 competitors being whittled down to about 160 for the grand finale: a six-round SPORTS gut-check at Bear Lakes Steve Country Hanf Club in West ■■■ Palm Beach, Fla., from Dec. 2-7. There, the top 25 players earn PGA Tour cards, the next 25 are fully exempt on the Nationwide Tour and everyone else earns at least conditional status on the minor-league circuit. Heady stuff, certainly, what with hopes and dreams and livelihoods on the line. But it also happens to be stuff that High Point’s Drew Weaver can put in perspective. “There are a lot of good things that can come out of this week,” Weaver said Wednesday by phone from Pine Mountain, Ga. “Worst case is I’ll learn a lot and make some money on the mini-tours (next year). I can go out with nothing to lose, play as hard as I can. I’m certainly not playing every shot with the weight of the world on my shoulders.” Weaver teed off at the Callaway Gardens-Mountain View Golf Course on Wednesday for the first of four rounds in this second stage of Q-school. Exempt from the first stage thanks to making the cut at the U.S. Open in June, Weaver shot an even-par round of 72 that left him with an uphill climb the rest of the week. The first-round leaders were Ken Duke and Kevin Kisner at 8-under. Ten others joined Weaver at even in a tie for 57th place, and the worst score in the 77-man field was a 4-over. The top 20 and ties earn the trip to Bear Lakes, and Weaver starts trying to make his move today at 9:50 a.m. He’s part of a diverse group in this annual affair that includes the “young guns” like himself: some familiar faces from the college circuit and Kisner, a 20-year-old who recently
starred for the Georgia Bulldogs before turning pro and making the cut in two NationWeaver wide events this year; and the familiar names who fell below the Top 125 on the PGA Tour money list. At Callaway Gardens alone, the field includes household names such as Duke – a 40-year-old who won more than $4 million on the tour earlier this decade – Jim McGovern (3-under), Carlos Franco (2-under), Len Mattiace (1-under) and Robert Damron (1-over). “We really don’t have anything to lose,” said Weaver, who graduated from Virginia Tech last May following a standout career at High Point Central. “This is the beginning of our journey. I think we have the edge on guys who really need to get somewhere.” Weaver said nerves were not an issue Wednesday despite being out of competition mode. His last tournament came in the Nationwide event in Miami three weeks ago, but he said he wouldn’t trade that free pass into the second round. After 27 practice holes earlier in the week, Weaver got rolling Wednesday with birdies on the par-4 second and seventh holes. But a three-putt bogey followed at No. 8, and the momentum was gone. Weaver picked up a bogey-5 on the 14th hole and a bogey-6 at the 15th before coming home even with a birdie at the par-4 17th. “I didn’t feel in sync on the greens,” Weaver explained. “I felt like I hit a lot of good putts and didn’t get them down. I felt like my score didn’t really indicate how I played.” When the action resumes today, Weaver will be targeting some low numbers to land in the 10to 12-under range for the tournament. “It’s four rounds, and that’s what I’ve got to keep telling myself,” Weaver said. “With 54 holes left, you can drive yourself crazy thinking about where you are with the rest of the field. I just need to not make any stupid, aggressive decisions, go out there and make birdies.” shanf@hpe.com | 888-3526

Wake Forest’s Al-Farouq Aminu (1) shoots over High Point’s David Singleton during the first half of Wednesday night’s game at the Joel Coliseum.
Wake spurt dooms HPU BY GREER SMITH ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER
WINSTON-SALEM – High Point University made it interesting for a half. Up only three points at the end of the first half, Wake Forest made quick work of the Panthers at the start of the second 20 minutes and rolled to an 83-60 victory at Joel Coliseum on Wednesday night. Wake, finally taking advantage of its height and giving a better effort on defense, held the Panthers to nine points over the first 14 minutes of the second period as a 42-39 lead grew to 69-47. Wake held HPU to 15-percent shooting (3-of-19) over a 16-minute stretch while hitting 13-of-19 from the field and 8-of-10 from the free-throw line. HPU shot 24 percent for the half and was outrebounded 42-28. Al-Farouq Aminu led the Deacons (30) with 22 points and 10 rebounds. Nick Barbour paced HPU (1-1) with 15 points and Eugene Harris added 13.
HPU didn’t come out in awe of the Deacons, leading all but 75 seconds of the first half before trailing 42-39 at intermission. The Panthers took the fight to Wake early as Cruz Daniels blocked two shots and HPU tried to negate Wake’s height advantage with quickness. The scrappy play of the smaller Panthers forced Wake coach Dino Gaudio to opt for a smaller lineup after the first five minutes. Sparked by torrid 3-point shooting, HPU broke to a 9-4 lead at the 16:34 mark and enjoyed its biggest lead at 2214. The lead grew to as much as six at 33-27 when Harris bagged a 3 with just over seven minutes to play, making the Panthers 7-of-11 from beyond the arc and 13-of-25 overall from the field. Wake forced its first tie at 35-35 on Ish Smith’s free throws with 3:08 left in the half. HPU enjoyed its final lead at 39-38 on David Campbell’s free throws with 1:46 left in the half. gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3519

A
funny thing happened on the way to tonight’s Dolphins-Panthers NFL showdown in Charlotte. The teams stumbled, bumbled and fumbled their way to 4-5 records. I’m sure the folks at the NFL Network expected a better matchup when they drew up this schedule. I did, too. The Dolphins were the feel-good story of the NFL last season. They went from 1-15 in 2007 to 11-5 in ‘08. Miami set an NFL record for greatest single-season turnaround en route to the AFC East title. Quarterback
80 38
Chad Pennington earned NFL comeback player of the year accolades and the sky figured to be the limit for the Dolphins in ‘09. Well, the sky apparently fell on them. Pennington was lost to a season-ending shoulder injury in late September. Miami trails New England by two games in the AFC East race. The playoffs appear an unlikely dream for Miami. As for the Panthers, they matched a franchise record by going 12-4 last season. Carolina captured the NFC South crown and looked like a solid Super Bowl contender until Jake Delhomme’s infamous six-turnover
meltdown against Arizona in a 33-13 playoff loss. Still, Carolina looked like a solid bet for another great season in ‘09. Wrong. Delhomme continued his generous turnover ways to start this campaign, many of his teammates also struggled and now the Panthers find themselves five games back of the Saints in the NFC South. Carolina is a postseason longshot at best. You know what they say about the bestlaid plans...
YOUR COMMUNITY. YOUR NEWSPAPER.
– MARK MCKINNEY ENTERPRISE SPORTS EDITOR
The Raiders are benching former No. 1 overall pick JaMarcus Russell, handing the starting job to Bruce Gradkowski. Coach Tom Cable said after practice Wednesday that Gradkowski will get the nod Sunday against Cincinnati. Cable says the plan is for Gradkowski to start the rest of the season. Cable has pulled Russell for ineffectiveness in two of the past three games. This will be the second start for Gradkowski since 2006. He started one game last year in Cleveland and 11 games as a rookie for Tampa Bay in 2006.

ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORTS
JAMESTOWN – Khari Blue hit a layup in the final minute and Guilford Technical Community College played strong defense at the other end for a 63-61 win over Patrick Henry (Va.) Community College on Wednesday night. Blue’s final points gave him 15 for the game to go along with seven assists. Charlon Kloof added 15 points for the Titans, who improved to 7-0 overall and 3-0 in the Carolinas-Virginia Conference. The game was the first for GTCC as a ranked team. The school earned its first-ever spot in the NJCAA Division II poll this week, landing 10th. The Titans resume action Monday against Central Carolina Community College.
DCCC 94, BELMONT 75 LEXINGTON – Davidson County Community College cruised to a 94-75 win over the Belmont Abbey JV team Wednesday night. Roderick Geter led the Storm with 24 points, while A.J. Finney and Bryan Roberts each had 12. Derrick Mayo pitched in nine points. Former Trinity standout Eric Potts paced DCCC with 11 points and 14 rebounds. “If everybody on our team played as hard and thought as hard as Eric Potts plays, we’d probably be 6-0,” Storm coach Matt Ridge praised. “He plays extremely hard and I’m very blessed to be able to say I’m his coach.” DCCC returns to action Saturday in Chesapeake, Va., for the Tidewater Community College tournament. The Storm plays the host team at 4:30 p.m.

Jake Delhomme and the Carolina Panthers look to pass a crucial test against visiting Miami tonight. The game is set for an 8:15 p.m. kickoff and the NFL Network will provide television coverage. (Editor’s note: This network is not available to all area viewers.)
Panthers wary of Dolphins CHARLOTTE (AP) – Miami coach Tony Sparano and assistant David Lee get plenty of credit for making the wildcat a much-copied NFL sensation. Offensive coordinator Dan Henning had little trouble making it work – perhaps because he first used direct snaps to running backs when directing Carolina’s offense in 2006. It’s a story that’s often forgotten when the formation’s rise to prominence is discussed. “Dan added his two cents into the mix when we started talking about it a little bit and drawing up for our preseason stuff,” Sparano said. “He did mention at that time that it was something (the Panthers) did.” It’s with that backdrop that the Dolphins (4-5)
and Panthers (4-5) meet tonight in a critical game for their renewed playoff hopes. The main component of Miami’s wildcat, running back Ronnie Brown, won’t play because of a foot injury. But that only makes the Panthers more nervous in a short week. What will Henning, fired by Carolina in 2006 amid criticism he was too conservative, cook up to make up for Brown’s absence? Will Ricky Williams line up in that formation? What about rookie Pat White? Will they not use it at all? That wasn’t the case with the Panthers. Conservative coach John Fox limited what Henning could do. Many felt Henning was made the scapegoat after a miserable 2006 season.
CHARLOTTE (AP) – Carolina Panthers running backs DeAngelo Williams and Jonathan Stewart are questionable for tonight’s game against Miami with lingering injuries. Williams skipped practice Wednesday with a sore left knee, but coach John Fox said they were “resting” him. Stewart practiced in full after sitting out Tuesday with a sore Achilles’ tendon. Defensive tackle Damione Lewis questionable with a sore shoulder, but practiced Wednesday. The biggest concern for Carolina is defensive end Charles Johnson, who is doubtful after missing his second straight practice with a strained pectoral muscle. Johnson plays mostly on passing downs. Fullback Brad Hoover and safety Charles Godfrey are also doubtful, but aren’t expected to play because of ankle injuries.
Quayle retools for week two of playoffs BY SAN QUENTIN QUAYLE DRIVEN TO BETTER 55

High Point’s Mansfield wins Harris Teeter Senior Amateur Tour title SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE
SOUTHERN PINES – For the second time this decade, Kim Mansfield of High Point is the champion of the Harris Teeter Senior Amateur Tour. Mansfield shot a two-day total of even-par 143 to win the championship Wednesday. Mansfield, the 2002 champ, held off a charge by four players who finished a stroke back. He credited his opening round of 68 at National Golf Club for giving him the cushion needed in the final round at Pine Needles. “I played well both days. The dif-
ference was I made a lot of putts in the first round,” said Mansfield, a former member of National Golf Club. “I knew my way around the course at National, but still you have to make the shots.” A quartet of golfers finished a shot back of Mansfield in the Championship Flight. Rick Luzar of Pinehurst took second on a scorecard playoff, while Brad Kroll of Charlotte finished third after shooting the low round of the tournament, a 67. Fourth-place Denny Adkins of Myrtle Beach also closed with a 67. In the A Flight, first-round leader Tommy Lee of Knoxville hung on to
post a total of 151 and a three-shot victory over Chuck Latham of Pinehurst. The B Flight winner was Orlando’s Craig Stone at 156, while Lamont Ellison of Indiana took top honors in the C Flight at 173. Randall Robbins of Smithfield made a hole-in-one in the final round. Robbins, a member of the Pinehurst tour, aced the 160-yard 12th hole at National with a 6-iron. It was his second career hole-inone. In the battle for the team cup, Charlotte (1,276) rallied to edge Pinehurst by four shots.
WINSTON-SALEM – Ragsdale’s boys and Reagan’s girls posted victories in Wednesday’s season-opening swim meet at Winston-Salem State University. The Tiger boys prevailed 86-83, while the Raider girls won 114-55. Colin James sparked Ragsdale’s boys, capturing the 100 back and 200
free. Teammate Gabe Snyder took the 100 fly, while Landis Cranford won the 100 breast. James, Cranford, Lon Weeks and Jordan Hjelnquist teamed to win the 200 medley relay, while Hjelnquist, Weeks, Snyder and Dakota Cary won the 200 free relay. For Ragsdale’s girls, Nicole VonRyen won the 200 IM. Ragsdale plays host to Grimsley on Friday at 5:30 p.m. at the Jamestown YMCA.

Scioscia, Tracy bag Manager of the Year awards NEW YORK (AP) – The Los Angeles Angels could have crumbled when pitcher Nick Adenhart was killed in a car accident in April, overcome by waves of grief and sadness. Mike Scioscia kept them moving forward. “There wasn’t one defining moment,” he said. “I think as the season started to evolve guys found that sense of purpose to play baseball again and they played it at a very, very high level.” For his deft touch during a trying season, Scioscia won the AL Manager of the Year award on Wednesday for the second time. Jim Tracy of Colorado was selected for the NL honor. Tracy became the second manager to win the award after taking over during the season, joining Jack McKeon for Florida in 2003. Less than an hour after the award was announced, the Rockies
said Tracy had been rewarded with a three-year contract. “What we’re talking about this afternoon, it’s probably as flattering an experience as I’ve come to realize during the course of Scioscia my professional career in athletics,” Tracy said. “And obviously a new contract is extremely exciting. But what is more intriguing for me is what is still out there for our ballclub.” Tracy received 29 first-place votes and two seconds for 151 points in balloting by the Baseball Writers’ Association of America. Scioscia got 15 first-place votes, 10 seconds and one third for 106 points. The Rockies promoted Tracy from bench coach after Clint Hurdle was fired in late May and won the wild-card race. Scioscia and the Angels paid tribute to
Adenhart with their fifth AL West title in six years. Ron Gardenhire finished second in the AL voting for the second straight year and fifth time during his eight seasons as Minnesota manager. He also Tracy placed third in 2002, when Scioscia was honored for the first time, but has never won the award. Tony La Russa of the Cardinals, a four-time winner, was a distant second in the NL with 55 points. Lou Piniella of the Cubs and Joe Maddon of the Rays were honored last year. Colorado was 18-28 and 141⁄2 games behind NL West-leading Los Angeles when general manager Dan O’Dowd dismissed Hurdle on May 29 and offered the job to Tracy. “I didn’t immediately say yes,” Tracy
recalled. “I asked for 60 minutes to think about it and he told me you can have 60 but you can’t have 61 because he needed somebody down in the dugout to manage that night.” There was no Rocktober this year – Colorado lost to Philadelphia in the division series – but it was still quite the turnaround for the club and Tracy, who was fired after leading the Pittsburgh Pirates to a 68-94 record in 2007. The 53-year-old Tracy was out of baseball before becoming the Rockies’ bench coach in November 2008. Scioscia managed the Angels to their third consecutive division title during one of his most difficult seasons in the dugout. Los Angeles has earned six postseason berths in the last eight years under Scioscia, who was a catcher for the Dodgers for 13 seasons and retired in 1994.

Gustafson, Martin give Chase to Johnson two less than Johnson’s seven. They trail Johnson by 108 points, a difference that would be much smaller if MarSPORTS tin Truex Jr.’s spinning car Greer hadn’t hooked Smith Martin’s car ■■■ at exactly the wrong place near the right-rear tire and turned Martin over with a lap to go at Talladega. They’ve made the Chase even though they were working together for the first time this year. They made it even though they had to rally after suffering engine failure in two of the first three races of the season, finishing last because of a wreck in the spring wreck at Talladega and finishing 35th at Infineon and 38th in the July race at Daytona. They won the first race in the Chase, sparking thoughts of Martin possibly authoring a fairy-tale ending to the season by winning the championship. “If you look at where they were at the beginning of the season with a couple of DNFs, they never even blinked an eye,” Knaus said. “Yeah, they were upset and discouraged, but they never gave up hope that they were going to make the Chase, and man they came back with a force. “They are one of the most technically advanced teams. Their engineering is second to none. I think Alan is the smartest crew chief out there, I’ve been saying that for a couple of years. And I think it’s just a matter of time before they get their chance (and win the championship). It very well could be this year.” It won’t be their year unless Martin gains 109 points or more on Johnson for the 10th time in the 267 races they’ve met. It won’t be their

Mark Martin trails Jimmie Johnson by 108 points as he heads to Homestead-Miami Speedway for Sunday’s Cup season finale. year if Johnson finishes 25th or better no matter what Martin does as the wind blows through the palm trees at Homestead-Miami Speedway. “When you’re in the position we’re in, it is very frustrating,” Gustafson said. “We’ve done about everything that we could humanly possibly do. If I look back, the only race where I would second-guess myself is Lowe’s (where Martin finished 17th). I think at Lowe’s we could have done a little better and finished a little higher. “We’ve done everything we could do. We’ve worked as hard as we can work. Mark’s driven his tail off every week. The pit crew has practiced since December of last year preparing for this. So when you get into that situation and you are falling short, it is frustrating. Mark, in typical fashion, is putting the load on his shoulders and saying that he’s got to dig deeper. I don’t know if that’s the case. We’ve just got to polish our system or finetune our system just a bit. “We’re talking about a position here, two positions there, and we’ll be where we need to be. Mark, maybe he can do this better or that better, but it is not a huge gap. We’ve just got to close it a little bit.” gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3519

ark Martin’s crew chief couldn’t come up with a definite explanation. As the director of the only team that can prevent Jimmie Johnson from winning a fourth straight Cup championship, Alan Gustafson wasn’t able to come up with the reason that Johnson and crew chief Chad Knaus have been so successful for so long. He offered no insight, even though he and Martin work for the same company as Johnson and Knaus. If he has been given some tips by Knaus on how to become more successful, Gustafson wasn’t telling. “As far as what the 48 team has that nobody has, that’s a really tough question to answer,” Gustafson said. “If I could figure that out, I’d be working really, really hard to implement whatever that is. But I can tell you that they work as hard or harder than anyone in the series consistently.” The success leaves the impression that Johnson and Knaus operate at a different level than everyone else. That was true through the first seven races in the Chase as they built a one-race lead in the points before Johnson fell victim to one of Sam Hornish Jr.’s miscues at Texas. “What they’ve been able to do is extremely, extremely difficult,” Gustafson said. “I’ve given everything I have, and the team has and Mark has. Right now we’re failing a little bit short. Hopefully that will change. I do want to make the point that what they’ve been able to accomplish over the past four years and what they’ve done in this Chase is really remarkable. I’ve heard someone bring the Tiger Woods analogy into the equation ... and that’s probably one of the best ways to summarize how good they’ve been.” Gustafson and Martin haven’t been that far off. They’ve won five races,

INDEX
Stocks drop on construction report NEW YORK (AP) – Stocks drifted lower Wednesday after an unexpected drop in home construction and disappointing forecasts from technology companies added to worries about the economic recovery. The modest drop came a day after major stock indicators closed at 13month highs. The Dow Jones industrial average slipped 11 points after having risen over nine of the past 11 days. Analysts say the market has been due for a break after the fast ascent. The Dow fell 11.11, or 0.1 percent, to 10,426.31. The broader S&P 500 index slipped 0.52, or 0.1 percent, to 1,109.80, while the
technology-heavy Nasdaq composite index fell 10.64, or 0.5 percent, to 2,193.14. Trading volume was light, as it has been for weeks. That suggests a relatively small number of buyers, which means the market may have trouble holding on to a surge this month that has vaulted the Dow up 725 points, or 7.5 percent. Investors are looking for any signals of further improvement in the economy to justify the gains that pulled major stock indexes off 12-year lows in March. Rising unemployment and tepid retail sales have some analysts worried that investors might have been too quick to place bets on a recovery.

– a supply magnified by a record number of home foreclosures. The figures also illustrate how much the fledgling recovery depends on government support. Builders broke ground on fewer homes in part because of uncertainty in October about whether Congress would extend a tax credit for homebuyers. Earlier this month, lawmakers renewed the credit and extended it to more buyers. Even with government aid, the weakness of the
housing sector is dragging on the recovery. “It will take a while before residential construction begins to contribute meaningfully to growth,” Jennifer Lee, an economist at BMO Capital Markets, wrote in a research note. The sluggish recovery is also holding down inflation. While consumer prices edged up faster than expected in October, they remain lower than they were a year ago. And inflation is expected to remain subdued.
The Labor Department said consumer prices rose 0.3 percent in October, a bit more than the 0.2 percent economists had expected. Core inflation, which excludes energy and food, rose 0.2 percent, compared with analysts’ expectation for a 0.1 percent rise. The higher figure was driven by another increase in energy prices and the biggest jump in new car prices in 28 years. The price of used cars and trucks also rose by the most since September 1980.
Dollar mostly lower on Fed prediction of assets that yield higher returns. The Fed’s current rock-bottom rate is weighing on the buck as traders use it borrow to buy up riskier assets, a market move called a “carry trade.” The market expects the Fed to start lifting rates around the middle or the second half of next year. In a speech to local business leaders Wednesday, St. Louis Fed President
James Bullard said “the FOMC did not begin policy rate increases until 2.5 to 3 years after the end of the past two recessions,” according to the St. Louis Fed’s Web site. Assuming that the Fed acted similarly to how it acted in the past, that could mean that it wouldn’t start increasing rates until 2012, he said. Bullard is slated to be a member of the Federal

NEW YORK (AP) – The dollar mostly declined Wednesday, with the euro bumping up near $1.50 as a Federal Reserve official said in a speech that interest rates could possibly not rise until 2012 from their current record low near zero — if the Fed acts as it has before.

WASHINGTON (AP) – The budding economic recovery is getting little help from the home building industry, which normally creates jobs and boosts growth as a recession ends. Construction of homes unexpectedly plunged last month to its lowest point since April, the Commerce Department said Wednesday. The weak figures show that builders still lack confidence that buyers can soak up the glut of unsold homes already on the market

(AP) – American Express Co. said Wednesday that it will buy Revolution Money for about $300 million in an effort to stay current with ever-changing technology in the marketplace.

IRS settles over foreign accounts MIAMI (AP) – More than 14,700 U.S. taxpayers came forward to disclose billions in offshore bank accounts in 70 countries under a voluntary Internal Revenue Service program allowing most to avoid criminal prosecution as long as they pay what they owe, IRS officials said Tuesday.

World chocolate makers vie for Cadbury LONDON (AP) – The world’s largest chocolate makers are gearing up for a potential corporate battle to buy Britain’s Cadbury, with Hershey and Ferrero saying Wednesday they were considering an offer to rival Kraft’s hostile takeover bid. Speculation had been mounting that as Cadbury resisted Kraft’s approach, other industry heavyweights would smell an opportunity and enter the fray. Hershey, the largest U.S. chocolate producer based in Pennsylvania, and Ferrero, the Italian maker of Nutella chocolate spread and Tic Tacs, are expected to join forces to compete with Kraft’s greater financial might.

Citi raises salaries for executives NEW YORK (AP) –Citigroup Inc. said its chief financial officer and cohead of global markets are getting raises, while CEO Vikram Pandit will continue to collect a salary of $1 per year. Citigroup, based in New York, faces restrictions on executive compensation because it received $45 billion in government bailout money after the peak of the credit crisis last fall. Salary caps for top executives were recently set by the Obama administration’s pay czar, Kenneth Feinberg, for Citi and six other companies that received big bailouts. The new compensation packages at Citigroup fall within the guidelines set last month by Feinberg, Citi said in a regulatory
filing submitted to the Securities and Exchange Commission. CFO John Gerspach’s salary was increased to $500,000 from $400,000, according to the filing late Tuesday. James Forese, cohead of global markets, will now make $475,000, more than double the $225,000 he previously earned. The pair will also receive “stock salary” for 2009. Gerspach will receive stock valued at $2.9 million as part of his compensation for 2009. Forese will receive stock valued at $5.4 million. Stephen Volk, a vice chairman at the bank, will continue to receive a base salary of $500,000. He will receive stock worth $3.4 million.
BMW becomes 2012 Olympics sponsor LONDON (AP) – BMW is the latest top-tier domestic sponsor of the 2012 London Olympics, and organizers remain in talks with additional potential investors. The German carmaker was presented Wednesday as the official automotive sponsor of the games in a deal worth an estimated $67 million in cash and services.
BMW will provide about 4,000 vehicles for athletes, officials and other members of the Olympic community. As the seventh toplevel sponsor and 24th overall of the games, the deal brings London’s total revenue from domestic sponsors to nearly $1 billion. The overall target is $1.17 billion.

NEW YORK – Oil prices wavered Wednesday as the government said American petroleum demand continued to tumble, while auto club AAA said it expects more drivers to hit the road during Thanksgiving weekend. Benchmark crude for December delivery added 61 cents at $79.75 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. In London, Brent crude for December delivery rose 78 cents to $79.75 on the ICE Futures exchange. AAA said that 33.2 million Americans would get in their cars and travel at least 50 miles (80 kilometers) over the Thanksgiving weekend, next Wednesday through Sunday. That’s an increase of 2.1 percent from 2008, even though a gallon of gas is 56 cents more expensive than this time last year.

HIGH POINT – Two local law enforcement officials will participate at noon today in a discussion about the use of stun guns in the public schools. The panel discussion at the High Point YWCA at 112 Gatewood Ave. is sponsored by the High Point Human Relations Department and YWCA of High Point as part of a “Front Porch Conversations” series. High Point Police Chief Jim Fealy and Guilford County Sheriff BJ Barnes are scheduled to participate. Fealy said Wednesday he agreed several months ago to meet with the commission to discuss the general use of stun guns. Commission members asked Fealy to attend the event, Fealy said in a press release, and his appearance was not prompted by the police department. The meeting is one of several Fealy has attended over the past year concerning stun guns. The panel discussions,

held on third Thursdays, are designed to help keep the public informed and to build multicultural literacy. The meeting follows a request by school district officials earlier this month for the same law enforcement officials to meet with them to discuss stun guns. The weapons became controversial again after a school resource officer used a Taser stun gun on a female student at Ragsdale High in September. The school district contracts with the law enforcement agencies to provide school resource officers at almost every middle and high school. Nearly all the officers are armed with a Taser. While deputies have carried the weapons since 2007, High Point school resource officers were equipped with stun guns for the first time this year. A representative of Taser International, a stun-gun maker, and a American Civil Liberties Union lawyer also are expected to attend the session.

A team headed by Carlina De La Cova of the UNCG Anthropology Department provided investigators with this profile: An African-American male; 40 to 50 years of
age, or older; over 6 feet tall and suffering from severe arthritis. De La Cova also provided dental care information and previous injuries to the skeleton. Investigators used missing persons reports and a surveillance photo taken at the bus station to focus on Wilson. Clothing pictured in the surveillance photo matched clothing found at the scene.

Israel brushes off criticism over Jerusalem JERUSALEM – Israel broke ground on a new housing complex for Jews in east Jerusalem on Wednesday, brushing off President Barack Obama’s criticism that construction in the disputed part of the holy city undermines efforts to relaunch Mideast peace talks. The groundbreaking came a day after Israel defied American, European and Palestinian demands to stop settlement activity by announcing it will press forward with construction of 900 apartments in another Jewish area in east Jerusalem.
Clinton: U.S. will keep pushing for reform KABUL – U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton stressed Wednesday the United States will keep pressing the Afghan government to crack down on rampant corruption, saying the American military cannot defeat militancy without the help of a strong partner. Clinton arrived in the Afghan capital on the eve of President Hamid Karzai’s inauguration, during which he will make a speech that many hope will outline concrete commitments to reform.
Iran rejects deal on sending uranium abroad TEHRAN, Iran – Iran will not ship its low-enriched uranium out of the country for processing, its foreign minister said Wednesday, once again rejecting a U.N. plan aimed at thwarting any attempt by Tehran to make nuclear weapons. Instead, Foreign Minister Manochehr Mottaki countered with a proposal certain to fall short of Western demands. “We will definitely not send our 3.5-percent enriched uranium out of the country,” Mottaki told the semiofficial ISNA news agency. But he added: “That means a simultaneous fuel swap could be considered inside Iran.”
National vote faces likely delay in Iraq BAGHDAD – Iraq’s path toward political stability after years of war threatened to veer off course Wednesday when a vice president vetoed part of a key election law, a move likely to delay a national vote slated for January.

Anti-racists, far-right youths battle in Moscow MOSCOW – A simmering confrontation between far-right youths and anti-racist activists has erupted into Moscow’s streets after the fatal shooting of an anti-racist activist known as the Bonebreaker.

Obama, Lee accentuate the positive SEOUL, South Korea (AP) – America’s relations with South Korea, a crucial Asian ally, are on an upswing as President Barack Obama meets with President Lee Myung-bak today, though a stalled trade agreement is still a concern for the economic powerhouses. Obama, winding up his weeklong Asian journey, is expected to emphasize the two nations’ unified efforts to prod a defiant North Korea out of its nuclear weapons program. He’s also welcoming South Korea’s return to helping U.S. efforts in Afghanistan. Obama landed Wednesday night in South Korea, embarking on perhaps the easiest leg of his whirlwind four-country Asian trip that has taken him away from Washington for the longest stretch of his presidency. He made stops in Tokyo, Singapore and China.

Maersk Alabama repels 2nd pirate attack with guns NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) – Somali pirates attacked the Maersk Alabama on Wednesday for the second time in seven months and were thwarted by private guards on board the U.S.-flagged ship who fired off guns and a highdecibel noise device. A U.S. surveillance plane was monitoring the ship as it continued to its destination on the Kenyan coast, while a pirate said that the captain of a ship hijacked Monday with 28 North Korean crew members on board had died of wounds.
Pirates hijacked the Maersk Alabama in April and took ship captain Richard Phillips hostage, holding him at gunpoint in a lifeboat for five days. Navy SEAL sharpshooters freed Phillips while killing three pirates in a daring nighttime attack. Four suspected pirates in a skiff attacked the ship again on Wednesday around 6:30 a.m. local time, firing on the ship with automatic weapons from about 300 yards (meters) away, a statement from the U.S. Fifth Fleet in Bahrain said.

The president, in a series of TV interviews during his trip to Asia, said those offended by the legal rights accorded Mohammed by virtue of his facing a civilian trial rather than a military tribunal wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t find it â&#x20AC;&#x153;offensive at all when heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s convicted and when the death penalty is applied to him.â&#x20AC;?

Attorney General Eric Holder pauses while testifying on Capitol Hill Wednesday before the Senate Judiciary Committee oversight hearing on the Justice Department. Obama, who is a lawyer, quickly added that he did not mean to suggest he was prejudging the outcome of Mohammedâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s trial. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not going to
be in that courtroom,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the job of the prosecutors, the judge and the jury.â&#x20AC;? The president said that experienced prosecutors
in the case who specialize in terrorism have offered assurances that â&#x20AC;&#x153;weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll convict this person with the evidence theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got, going through our system.â&#x20AC;?

Reid sets markers for health care debate WASHINGTON (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Setting up a historic year-end health care debate, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid unveiled long-awaited legislation Wednesday night to extend coverage to all but 6 percent of eligible Americans and bar private industry from denying insurance because of pre-existing medical conditions. The Democratâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s $849 billion measure is designed to remake the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s health care system, relying on cuts in future Medicare spending to cover costs â&#x20AC;&#x201C; as well as on higher payroll taxes for the well-to-do and a new levy on patients undergoing elective cosmetic surgery.
Aides said the mammoth, 2,074-page bill would reduce deficits by $127 billion over a decade and by as much as $650 billion in the 10 years that follow, citing as-yet-unreleased estimates by the Congressional Budget Office. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Tonight begins the last leg of this journey,â&#x20AC;? said Reid, less than two weeks after the House approved its version of health care reform. President Barack Obama welcomed Reidâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s action, saying, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Today, thanks to the Senateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hard work, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re closer than ever to enacting solutions to these problems. I look forward to working with the Senate and House to get a finished bill to my desk as soon as possible.â&#x20AC;?

Grice is the correct choice for Davidson sheriff Hasn’t it been wonderful to have a professional and respected sheriff for Davidson County for the past 51⁄2 years, without all the hype and crazy antics of our past sheriff? I’m not a very political person, but this is one election that I will be working to bring back the best candidate for the job of sheriff of Davidson County – David Grice. I’m not even a registered Republican, but rather an independent, but I will be stating that I want to vote in the Republican primary in May, in the hopes of keeping Sheriff David Grice as sheriff. (Independents take note, you can make a difference in the primary race in May by stating which party you want to vote for when you go to vote). Sheriff Grice has quietly done his job, and a very good job too, without all the ridiculous hoop-la our county was known for before. Sheriff Grice has worked hard for this county. He has deputies that

Democrats weren’t enthused in recent Greensboro election The election of 2009 is over, and now is the time for thoughtful analysis. Republican candidates captured the governorships of New Jersey and Virginia, clearly a positive sign for the GOP after a long drought. More interesting are the results of the Greensboro election. The two major candidates for mayor polled 34,313 votes, the Science
Museum bond gathered 33,495 votes and the City Council atlarge average vote was 15,040 votes with six candidates vying for three seats. It is obvious that the mayoral race – the major political race – did not turn out many more voters than the museum bond issue. This lack of a larger voter turnout for the mayor’s race helps explain the surprise defeat of longtime member of Greensboro City Council and Mayor Yvonne Johnson. With her longtime service, wide name recognition, more campaign funds, more volunteers and a seasoned campaign organization and staff, her defeat is attributable, in part, to a lack of enthusiasm and participation on the part of Democratic Party voters.

If we can create new technology to make clean-burning coal, fine. Stop the cutting off of tops of mountains to get more coal. Put a levy on the carbon emission that anyone creates, and put these monies into funding these new technologies which will stop or clean up completely these emissions. And start adding more of the tested technologies – wind, solar, photovoltaic – right now! MILLARD ARNOLD Winston-Salem

e realize a considerable amount of work needs to be done before changes to the Westchester Drive bus route actually takes place, but City Council took a step in the right direction recently by approving Hi tran plans. Currently, the Westchester Drive route has bus stops on only one side of the five-lane wide thoroughfare, which means many riders often have to battle heavier vehicular traffic to cross to the bus stops. Mark McDonald, city transportation director, said the two bus routes eventually will enhance safety while serving passengers along Westchester. Good move!

t wasn’t just a routine name change. Last week, the High Point Planning and Zoning Commission returned the historic name Washington Street, effective next March, to the city avenue that for about 40 years has been known as Washington Drive. But in addition to reclaiming part of that street’s history, the move was a reminder that little has occurred over the past year with the plan to redevelop and revitalize areas along Washington Street and in that neighborhood. Hundreds of thousands of dollars were spent in 2007 and 2008 studying the Washington Street area as the first segment of the massive Core City Plan revitalization effort, which has since been renamed the City Project. Consultants, city officials and community leaders and residents participated in the planning process. The effort produced a revitalization plan that by any measure was pretty impressive and certainly could be a springboard for monumental changes to the area. For maybe a century, Washington Street has been a business and social center for High Point’s African-American community. In the last few decades, however, the need for improvements to properties along the street and for revitalization of the area has grown. Interest by property owners, investors and the community in general for doing that has not. An extensive, doable plan exits for revitalizing the Washington Street area and restoring it to its earlier glory. But the willpower and the cash for doing so has not surfaced – just yet. A recapturing of that area’s cultural and ethnic history awaits. Maybe last week’s name change also will be a spark that again ignites the Washington Street redevelopment effort.

Sammy Sosa must be seeking a whiter shade of male
D
ear Sammy Sosa: Are you happy with yourself now? Are you more confident and self-assured? When you look in the mirror, do you like yourself better, now that you are white? As you know, photos taken of you at an awards show earlier this month have the whole country talking. Last time we saw you, you were a brown man from the Dominican Republic, star slugger for the Chicago Cubs. Now you are white, facing the camera with a complexion strikingly reminiscent of Dracula’s. You claim you’ve been using a skin-softening cream and that it, combined with the bright lights under which the photos were taken, made your face look whiter than it is. Which is an extraordinarily lame excuse. Indeed, if that excuse was a horse, you’d shoot it. While it is admirably metro-sexual of you to be so concerned with the softness of your skin, I must say: if I slathered something on my face that was supposed to render it tender and it left me looking like the Joker instead, I’d sue. You, on the other hand, are reported to be considering an endorsement deal. “Skin softening” my fanny. “Skin bleaching” is more like it. So I want to know if it’s made you happy, being white, if it’s given you what you felt you lacked. Me, I’d have thought you already had the brass ring by both hands: you were a handsome sports hero, had made beaucoup dollars, had the requisite gorgeous wife. What could be missing? Whiteness, apparently. You know how transsexuals will sometimes say they never felt at home in their original gender? Was that what it was like for you? Was there always a white man inside you trying to get out? Sorry if I can’t relate, Sammy, but I’m a child of the era when James Brown sang, “Say it loud! I’m black and I’m proud!” It was a seminal moment in the history of a nation which had always taken for granted that negritude and pride were mutually exclusive. Those years found black people shrugging off the idea that they should be judged by what other people deemed beautiful. It was like a
butterfly leaving a cocoon ... if butterflies wore Afros and dashikis. We walked with a brand new swagger in that era, Sammy, having buried the Negro – and all the attendant connotations of obsequious servitude OPINION and knowing your place – for good. From now on, we would Leonard be black. “Black is beautiful, Pitts baby,” we said. ■■■ And it was possible to believe something fundamental had changed, that the Rubicon had been well and truly crossed. So you can imagine what a bitter pill the last 20 years or so have been for some of us, what a harsh lesson in the changeability of change. We spent those years watching Michael Jackson use creams and surgery to scrape Africa from his face; listening as “entertainers” made fortunes selling coonish caricatures of black life; cringing as black children decreed academic achievement synonymous with “acting white;” aching as teenage filmmaker Kiri Davis re-enacted the old “doll test” and found black children still choose white dolls as prettier or more desirable than black ones; and fuming as black people clung, stubbornly and stupidly, to the custom of referring to themselves by a certain six-letter epithet that begins with N. But I’ll bet you don’t see any of that when you look in the mirror. I’ll bet you don’t see 400 years of internalized inferiority, little girls crying for lack of “good hair,” black folks obsessively categorizing themselves by a color scheme which holds, in the words of the old saying, the lighter, the brighter, the better. No, I’ll bet you see a face you’ve always dreamt of seeing – white and smiling you. And I’ll bet you’re not embarrassed in the least. But that’s all right, Sammy. I’m embarrassed for you.

As long as the economy remains in a downturn, you cannot underestimate the degree to which middle-class voters will be drawn to her folksy, outsider shtick. Her ability to coral the middle-class and the religious right puts Palin in the conversation for 2012. Sadly, it also emphasizes just how bereft of ideas the Republican Party has become.

Because at least one third of the country (e.g., â&#x20AC;&#x153;the heartlandâ&#x20AC;?) remains enamored with her compelling mix of values talk and sexual confidence.

ith painful fits and struggles, Sarah Palin has birthed her way back into the national spotlight. Her memoir, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Going Rogue,â&#x20AC;? made the bestseller list online more than a month before it was even released. Earlier this week, she was on Oprah to pimp her book, and to proclaim her return to the political zeitgeist. So, should we take Palin seriously as a 2012 GOP candidate? On â&#x20AC;&#x153;This Weekâ&#x20AC;? with George Stephanopoulos, round table commentator David Brooks was harshly dismissive of the idea, calling Palin a â&#x20AC;&#x153;joke.â&#x20AC;? Fellow commentator George Will was a little more restrained, observ-
recently read an interesting quote by a young adult named Sam Lefkowitz: â&#x20AC;&#x153;When asked if my cup is half-full or half-empty, my only response is that I am thankful I have a cup.â&#x20AC;? That seems to be the prevailing thought these days. It just feels like a â&#x20AC;&#x153;differentâ&#x20AC;? kind of Thanksgiving season this year, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t you think? There are many jobless and struggling in the face of our tanked economy. Others are facing the stress of health or family issues. Then there are the tragedies in recent days that have rocked our sense of security and enraged us to our cores. The 7-year-old girl in Florida, abducted on her way home from school, murdered and dumped in a landfill a few weeks ago, broke our hearts. This week, the tragic death of the 5-year-old Fayetteville girl has been incomprehensible. How could any mother hand her little daughter over to someone knowing what would happen to her? How will those families and many others facing tragedy and difficulty find anything to give thanks for next week? How can any of us, in light of the overwhelming despair we hear on the news each day, find a way to give thanks? The answer to that is that we have to. Living in daily dread is not living at all. Even if itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just the sun coming up in the morning, we all must focus on the good around us and not the evil. In case you feel alone in your despair this year, know that even the Bibleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Psalmist recorded in several places his depression and dismay at his current circumstances. In Psalms 42:5, we read: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Why are you downcast, O my soul? Why so disturbed within me? Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise Him, my Savior and my God.â&#x20AC;?

Thousands cheer Palin as book tour kicks off GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; College students ditched class, employees skipped work and some huddled in the cold overnight just to make sure they got an orange wristband Wednesday that would let them meet Sarah Palin. Thousands gathered outside a Barnes & Noble and chanted â&#x20AC;&#x153;Palin! Palin! Palin!â&#x20AC;? for the kickoff of the former Republican vice presidential candidateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Going Rogueâ&#x20AC;? book tour, which has taken on the feel of a political pep rally. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a person of faith, she has a family, she has gone through a lot of the trials and tribulations we have. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d vote for her in a heartbeat,â&#x20AC;? said Lana Smith, a dispatcher at a bus company who took the day off work and had been waiting in line since 5:30 a.m.
â&#x20AC;&#x153;Someday I hope her name is up in lights and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have had the privilege of meeting her,â&#x20AC;? Smith said. Country music played as Palinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tour bus, painted to resemble the cover of her book, pulled up to the Woodland Mall in Grand Rapids. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I just canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t tell you how good it is to be back in Michigan,â&#x20AC;? the former Alaska governor told the crowd, which chanted â&#x20AC;&#x153;Palin! Palin!â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Alaska and Michigan have so much in common, with the huntinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and the fishinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and the hockey moms, and just the hardworking, patriotic Americans who are here,â&#x20AC;? Palin said. Wearing a â&#x20AC;&#x153;Palin Powerâ&#x20AC;? bumper sticker across her red sweat shirt, 72-year-old Rachel Baragar praised Palinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s honesty and downto-earth manner.
AP
People wait in line at Woodland Mall in Kentwood, Mich., on Wednesday just after sunrise, to get a bracelet at Barnes & Noble that allowed them to meet Sarah Palin and get a signed copy of her new book, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Going Rogue.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;She could be your next door neighbor,â&#x20AC;? said Baragar, of Caledonia. The memoir was released Tuesday but has topped best-seller lists for weeks.
Sebelius: Mammograms still vital in saving lives WASHINGTON (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Women should continue getting regular mammograms starting at age 40, Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius said Wednesday, moving to douse confusion caused by a taskforce recommendation two days earlier. Sebelius issued her statement following a government panelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s recommendation on Monday, that said most women donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need mammograms in their 40s and should get one every two years start-
ing at 50. That recommendation was a break with the American Cancer Societyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s long-standing position that women should get screening mammograms starting at age 40. The task force does â&#x20AC;&#x153;not set federal policy and they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t determine what services are covered by the federal government,â&#x20AC;? Sebelius said. Medicare, which covers older Americans and some younger ones who are disabled, provides women on Medicare coverage for an annual mammogram at
Tour bus crashes off interstate, killing 2 AUSTIN, Minn. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; A tour bus returning from a casino ran off a southern Minnesota interstate and rolled over in a ditch Wednesday, killing two people and injuring 21, authorities said. The bus, operated by Strain Bus Line Motorcoach Tours in Rochester, was eastbound on Inter-
state 90 just west of Austin about 3:20 p.m. Wednesday when it crossed into the westbound lanes and flipped over, Department of Public Safety spokesman Andy Skoogman said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We can confirm that two people on board the bus died at the scene,â&#x20AC;? Skoogman said.

Dell begins announced layoffs ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT
WINSTON-SALEM – Officials with Dell Inc. said Wednesday was the last day of work for 400 of the more than 900 workers losing jobs at the southeastern Forsyth County manufacturing plant. The rest of the employees are scheduled to work until January, when Dell closes the plant opened with fanfare four years ago. Dell spokeswoman Donna Oldham told WXII-TV this week that some of the laidoff workers already have found new jobs and left the company. The laid-off workers are getting severance packages equal to two months of pay plus an additional week of pay for every year worked. They also will receive health insurance coverage for several months and job placement assis-

tance, WXII reports. Dell announced last month it was closing the facility, which received the largest pledge of state and local economic incentives in North Carolina history. Had Dell kept the plant open, the Texas-based computer conglomerate could have received incentives of more than $300 million. The company has repaid $26 million in incentives to the city of Winston-Salem, Forsyth County and other local entities. State officials have indicated they expect to get back $1.5 million of the $8.5 million that was paid to Dell – the remainder of the state incentives to the company wasn’t legally required to be reimbursed if Dell closed the Winston-Salem operation early. City officials have indicated they are working to find a new tenant for the building.

CVB approves N.C. Marathon incentive BY PAM HAYNES ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
HIGH POINT – The United Healthcare North Carolina Marathon will receive another event booking incentive from the High Point Convention and Visitor’s Bureau next year. An incentive for $10,000 was passed at the bureau’s meeting on Wednesday as officials said the event has a significant impact on the city. According to the bureau’s figures, it is estimated to bring 3,000 people to High Point with an economic impact of $503,040. The N.C. Marathon received an incentive for the same amount in March, when it was first relocated to High Point from Greensboro. It is scheduled for March 20, 2010. Marva Wells, sales manager for the bureau, said several of the city’s key tourism events from Septem-
ber and October had also been re-booked for the coming year. The High Point Classic DanceSport Championship, held Oct. 2325, said it would return to High Point again in 2010. It brought an estimated 750 attendees to the city who booked 220 hotel room nights, according to the bureau. “Sales activity for September and October performed very well,” Wells said. Other tourism events included the Miss North Carolina USA Pageant Forum that brought 200 attendees Sept. 11-13 and the International Natural Body Fitness Atlantic Coast Body Building competition held Oct. 9-11, which brought 150 attendees to the city. About 1,200 visitors came for the High Point University Family and Alumni Weekend. phaynes@hpe.com | 888-3617
‘Operation Christmas Star’
Parents ask for food; school responds with project to help families in need BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
ARCHDALE – As Sally Voelkert viewed Christmas wish lists from parents this year, she noticed some unfamiliar requests from families. Instead of asking for toys for their children, parents are actually asking for food. Responding to that need, Voelkert, an Archdale Elementary School guidance counselor, came up with a way to help families in need this Christmas. “I’m the school counselor, so it’s part of my job here to get families some support at the holidays,” Voelkert said. “One of the big things people have asked for is food, which has been the first time in my 25 years as a counselor that I’ve seen that on a Christmas wish list for families. I had said something to my husband at home one night and he said, ‘We have to do something.’ ” Voelkert has led efforts to plan the school’s first “Operation Christmas Star,”

and share the extra with Community Outreach of Archdale-Trinity,” Voelkert said, adding that the school will help 116 kids at Christmas. According to Voelkert, students are joining in the effort to help the community by creating ornaments that can be purchased for a donation of $5. All monies collected through the project will go to purchase gift cards to local grocery stores so they can be distributed to families in need. “I think it’s a good project,” said Archdale Elementary fifth-grader Dylan Knight, who has made three ornaments. “I think it’s helpful for everybody who needs it and I have a feeling that it’s going to do very well.” For next weekend’s concert, the school is currently looking for door prizes to be given out during the evening.

Husband charged with wifeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s murder MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE
OXFORD â&#x20AC;&#x201C; More than a year after a young mother from Granville County was reported missing, her husband has been charged with her murder. William Scott Morris, 35, of Creedmoor was charged with firstdegree murder late Tuesday, according to the arrest warrant. Authorities think he killed his wife, Kelly Currin Morris, then 28, in September 2008. Granville County Sheriff Brindell Wilkins Jr. said Wednesday that his department received information Monday that led them to Kelly MorrisBâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; skeletal remains off Sam Moss Hayes Road north of Creedmoor. She was identified through dental records, Wilkins said at an press conference. He did not provide other details about the case. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re doing the best we can,â&#x20AC;? Wilkins said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to mess up anything weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re doing by things getting out.â&#x20AC;? Morrisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; skeletal remains were found just inside a fence at Tar River Fox Pen, a private hunting preserve outside Creedmoor, said Al Mignacci, who helped organize searches for Morris. Hundreds of volunteers searched for her in the days and weeks following her disappearance. Kelly Morris vanished sometime after her stepmother saw her the night of Sept. 3 and before firefighters rushed to her house in Stem the next day to put out a fire. She had not shown up at work that day. Firefighters found no trace of her in the charred house. The next day, deputies found Kelly Morrisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; car, with purse and keys inside, abandoned in an unfinished subdivision nearby. Authorities later determined that someone had torched the house she shared with her husband and her two daughters. William Morris is being held without bail. He made a brief appearance in court this afternoon and is not scheduled back in court until Dec. 2. The marriage of William and Kelly Morris produced one child, a daughter who is now six. On Tuesday morning, a District Court judge granted custody of the child to Kelly Morrisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; parents.
Pentagon releases ID of missing soldier MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE
FAYETTEVILLE â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The Pentagon identified a Fort Bragg soldier missing in Afghanistan as Sgt. Brandon T. Islip, 23, of Richmond, Va. The 82nd Airborne Division soldier has been unaccounted for since Nov. 4, when he disappeared while on a resupply mission. Sgt. Benjamin W. Sherman, 21, of Plymouth, Mass., was killed on the mission. Islipâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s status is listed as duty status whereabouts unknown. Military officials told Patricia Sherman, the widow of the dead soldier, that her husband was one of two soldiers swept away while trying to retrieve air dropped supplies from a river in the remote, Taliban-infested province of Badghis. The soldiers were members of the 1st Battalion, 508th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 4th Brigade Combat Team. Search-and-recovery efforts are continuing, and the incident is under investigation, the Pentagon said.

RALEIGH (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; An environmental group says North Carolinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s future with solar energy can be bright. The Environment North Carolina Research and Policy Center said Wednesday the state could generate solar power equal to 14 percent of its electricity needs by 2030. The groupâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s report says North Carolinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 250 days of sunlight a year makes it a good place to capture energy from above without generating more pollution. The studyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s findings are based on examining the potential for installing solar panels in each of the 100 counties. Environment North Carolina says solar power installations grew six-fold last year and could increase another six-fold by the end of next year.

S.C. offers tax-free weekend on guns COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; South Carolina shoppers will get a second chance to buy tax-free guns. The state Revenue Department sent out a reminder Wednesday of the upcoming â&#x20AC;&#x153;Second Amendment Weekend.â&#x20AC;? The 48hour tax break begins just after midnight the Friday after Thanksgiving. Shoppers will pay no state or local sales taxes on handguns, rifles and shotguns, which can tally 9 percent. Taxes still apply to ammunition and accessories. South Carolina had the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first tax holiday on guns last year, after legislators tacked it on to a tax break on energy-efficient appliances. But the state Supreme Court threw out
that law in May because of an unrelated energy amendment. Lawmakers restored the tax break as a one-time event in the budget this year. Louisiana followed this year with its own sales tax holiday for hunters in September. That break went further, applying to any item that can be used for hunting or fishing, including off-road vehicles, airboats, animal feed and ear plugs. South Carolina is the only state to designate a tax-free weekend during two of the yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s biggest shopping days. How much shoppers saved in the gun-friendly state last Thanksgiving weekend is unknown. State economic officials
But the director of a estimated it would cost the nonprofit that advocates state about $15,000. The National Rifle Asso- for changes in South Carolinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tax structure said ciation praises the idea. â&#x20AC;&#x153;there is no good tax reason to have a gun sales tax holiday.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;It isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t tax policy. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gun policy,â&#x20AC;? said John Ruoff of South Carolina Fair Share. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our state tax system is sufficiently screwed up that instead of taking a serious look at it ... we keep doing stuff like a gun sales tax holiday, or a going-back-to-school tax holiday, all of which are very shortsighted tax policies or kneejerk panderâ&#x20AC;&#x153;It allows gun owners ing.â&#x20AC;?

Dear Abby: My husband of 25 years ADVICE died last year. How Dear long do Abby I need to â&#x2013; â&#x2013; â&#x2013; maintain ties with his family? Must I still give gifts at Christmas and birthdays to all his siblings, nieces and nephews? What I need to know is how to ease out of this without offending them. His parents are still alive, and the most I want to do is send a card at Christmas. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Ready to Move On in Canada Dear Ready to Move On: No law says that you â&#x20AC;&#x153;have toâ&#x20AC;? maintain a gift-giving relationship with your late husbandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s relatives. It would be nice, however, to send something to the nieces and nephews â&#x20AC;&#x201C; if only a few dollars and some kind words included in a card. The message that speaks loudest to me in your letter is the one you did not directly put into words â&#x20AC;&#x201C; that after 25 years of marriage to your husband, you had no meaningful connection with his family. An acceptable way to begin stepping back would be to explain to them that,

because of your reduced circumstances, you are no longer able to send the usual gifts and will be sending cards during these holidays. Dear Abby: Thank you for all the great advice you have given over the years. I have enjoyed reading your column since I can remember. When I was in high school nine years ago, I gave birth to a beautiful baby whom I placed in an open adoption with a great family. I am now in my 20s. I find that if I mention the adoption, the conversation sometimes becomes awkward. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like to mention it with acquaintances because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something very personal and I am somewhat sensitive about it.

Dear Friend: Selfishness? You are both consenting adults. You can do what you want. Many successful relationships have begun with two people supporting each other through a painful period â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t consider that â&#x20AC;&#x153;selfishâ&#x20AC;? at all. What I AM having trouble understanding is why you havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t begun divorce proceedings from your emotionally abusive husband. Once thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s started, you should have no reason to have
any second thoughts at all.

Guilt destroys comfort couple finds together ear Abby: Is there anything wrong with having a lover solely for the purpose of sex? He is grieving for his late wife (my best friend), and I am separated from my husband. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re both lonely and have supported each other through our pain. A few weeks ago we decided to become lovers. We both have our eyes open, and we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t expect anything out of this except a friendship with benefits. I am satisfying his needs, and he is making me remember the woman I used to be before I was emotionally beaten down by my husband. I see myself as enjoying the best of both worlds: Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m finding myself again, and I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to answer to anyone but me. So, Abby, what do you think? I guess Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m looking for some validation for our selfishness. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Friend With Benefits

Women are changing the world philanthropic activity and status was tied to a husbandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wealth and position. This model GIVING 101 has changed forever. Paul Currently Lessard women â&#x2013; â&#x2013; â&#x2013; control more than 50 percent of the investment wealth in the United States, and they are learning to leverage these assets to create positive change. We now see women who have served in prominent corporate positions starting their own companies, creating more wealth and supporting womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s initiatives.
Why is this so important? With the profound shifts in our global economy, women and children are being disproportionately affected for the worse. There has never been a time in our history in which the vision and leadership of women can have such a profound influence locally, nationally and internationally. I am convinced that bringing women together, using philanthropy as the vehicle, to create economic and social change has the capacity to make a profound difference. As a foundation, we have been planning the establishment of a High Point Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Fund that would be funded, managed and granted

‘Prolapse’ means an organ has fallen
D
ear Dr. Donohue: I recently developed a prolapsed bladder. While I know it is not life-threatening, I want to take care of it ASAP. I am 74 and very active. My gynecologist wants me to do Kegel exercises and be fitted with a pessary. He doesn’t want to do surgery. I would like the surgery while I am healthy enough to recover in a timely manner and get it over with. Please give me your opinion. – B.C.
BLONDIE
The meaning of “prolapse” is “a dropping.” The bladder, uterus and rectum can prolapse. It happens mostly to women, and the reason is a weakening of pelvic muscles and ligaments. Age is one explanation. Childbirth is another. It’s a bit unusual to have a patient wanting surgery and the doctor wanting not to do it. Your doctor is a good man. He’s trying to hold off. You might never need an operation. The progression of a prolapse is unpredictable. In the meantime, do the Kegel exercises. Let me explain them for other women with the same problem and for women who lose urine when they cough, laugh or strain to move a heavy object. Women have to know what muscles to contract. They learn this by shutting off urine in midstream or by contracting the muscles they use to prevent the passage of gas. Those muscles should be squeezed tightly 10 consecutive times. The squeeze should be held for two seconds at

first. Then increase the hold time to four, six, eight and, finally, 10 seconds. The exerHEALTH cise routine is repeated Dr. Paul three to Donohue four times a ■■■ day. It takes a month or two before results are seen. Pessaries come in many shapes. They’re devices inserted into the vagina to prop up a falling organ. You have nothing to lose by putting off an operation and performing the Kegel exercises. You have everything to gain. As I said, you might never need an operation. Be grateful for the doctor you have. Dear Dr. Donohue: Once and for all, my husband and I need to put a disagreement to rest. Can a person with a pacemaker that’s been in for one year vacuum? He is a mason and uses a chipping gun, but he claims he should not vacuum. I am confused. – S.D. Most household appliances – including vacuum cleaners, microwave ovens, hair dryers and toasters – don’t interfere with the functioning of a pacemaker. Improperly grounded electric appliances held in close contact with the body might be troublesome. Heavyduty industrial motors that generate a powerful electromagnetic field can
disrupt pacemaker function. Unless there is something special about your husband’s pacemaker, a vacuum cleaner should not be a danger to him. To play it safe, check with the doctor’s office. Did he vacuum before he had the pacemaker? Maybe the noise frightens him. Dear Dr. Donohue: I have a two-pronged problem with my right foot. I have a Morton’s neuroma and tarsal tunnel syndrome. Cortisone injections did nothing for either. Both are painful. Is surgery the only answer? – KD. I addressed Morton’s neuroma quite recently, so it’s a bit soon to repeat. Have you tried a padded shoe insert? Tarsal tunnel syndrome is the foot’s equivalent of the hand’s carpal tunnel syndrome. In the foot’s case, the tibial nerve, located behind the bony bump (medial malleolus) on the big-toe side of the ankle, is trapped in tissue that squeezes it. Anti-inflammatory drugs like Aleve or Advil can relieve pain and reduce pressure by reducing inflammatory swelling. Heel pads help.
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.

“Seussical, the Musical” cast members include (from left) John Wilson as the Cat in the Hat, Lee Willard as Horton and Tori Galloway as JoJo.
Community Theatre production combines Dr. Seuss favorites BY VICKI KNOPFLER ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
H
IGH POINT – Imagine being a kid – or an adult – with the opportunity to become a Dr. Seuss character, at least on stage. A cast of 83, approximately 60 of whom are younger than 18, get to enter Seuss’ bizarre world when High Point Community Theatre stages “Seussical, the Musical” beginning tonight at the High Point Theatre. Community Theatre also will perform the musical for area school groups Friday morn-
Nearly all of the songs and spoken portions of ‘Seussical’ come straight from Seuss books. ing at the theater, in partnership with Carousel Theatre. Two of the play’s adult cast members said they’ve nearly reverted to children. “It’s two hours of just-plain fun,” said Lee Willard, who plays Horton. “It’s amazing,” said John Wilson, who plays The Cat in the Hat. “I love playing a character who can do anything in his Cat-in-the-Hat world. There is no over-the-top, and it’s great to use every ounce of energy in over-the-topness.” “Seussical” is a wild amalgam of nearly 20 Seuss tales, and the main story combines two Seuss books, “Horton Hears a Who” and “Horton Hatches an Egg.” Because there’s so much going on in the production, Cat in the Hat serves as the narrator to guide the audience, and he also is a character in the story. Horton, an elephant, discovers in the jungle a dust speck that is home to creatures known as the Whos. He places the speck on a clover leaf and carries the leaf with him to protect the Whos. The jungle creatures consider Horton insane, which leads to a line that’s as close to a moral of the story as “Seussical” comes. “A person’s a person no matter how small,” Horton says.

Lee Willard as Horton (center) poses with Meredith Leonard (left) and Gracey Falk, who both portray Whos. During his journey and adventures through the crazy Seuss world, Horton is conned into sitting on and hatching an egg in a nest at the top of a tree. Nearly all of the songs and spoken portions of “Seussical” come straight from Seuss books, and costumes and sets are designed to mimic what so many children have seen in those books. Wilson is delighted at the opportunity to don the Cat’s trademark red-and-white-striped hat and red bow tie, and he snickers about his tuxedo with “tails.” (Cat, tails. Get it?) “The Cat is the epitome of mischief, and he’s there to have a good time” Wilson said. Horton is the straight-man/elephant to the Cat’s over-the-topness, both actors said, and a big departure for Willard, who usually is cast as over-the-top characters. “Horton is the hero, the romantic lead, the moral center of the story,” Willard said. “And Horton is the one who ends up with the girl.”

YOUR COMMUNITY. YOUR NEWSPAPER.
LOS ANGELES (AP) – Kris Allen knows he’s not garnering as much attention as Adam Lambert – and that’s OK with him. Since foiling Lambert at the “American Idol” finale last May, the 24-year-old singer-songwriter from Conway, Ark., has not appeared on the cover of Rolling Stone magazine and declared he’s gay. His music can’t be heard during the credits of the apocalyptic action flick “2012.” And you won’t find him posing in a racy Details photo shoot with a naked woman. “I don’t mind,” an always modest Allen says while perched in “Idol” overlord Simon Fuller’s quiet office 10 stories above the Sunset Strip. “I think that’s how I went through the competition as well. I did my thing, and it worked out. And that’s how I’m going to do my music career. I’m just going to do my thing, what I like to do, and hopefully it works out.” His thing now is his self-titled album, which came out Tuesday, a week before Lambert’s “For Your Entertainment” is scheduled for release. As one might expect after watching his soulful “Idol” renditions of Kanye West’s “Heartless” and “Falling Slowly” from the indie musical “Once,” Allen’s album is filled with melodic ballads and toe-tapping rock tunes. Allen teamed with experienced producers like Toby Gad, Steve Kipner, Andrew Frampton and Saalam Remi, but contributed more than just his voice and guitar-andpiano-playing prowess. Allen’s name appears on the songwriting credits for all but four of the album’s 13 songs.

Keep things simple and stay in control. Stability will be required of you. Love may be on the line if you haven’t been attentive or your feelings have changed. Reevaluate your financial, personal and emotional situation and stir things up a bit. Your numbers are 5, 14, 17, 21, 27, 30, 46 ARIES (March 21-April 19): Discuss your plans and to find out as much as you can about a project that interests you or about someone you want to get to know better. A job opportunity will develop if you express your eagerness to take on whatever task is required. ★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Observe what everyone around you is up to. The experience and wisdom offered will help you make a vital decision concerning your beliefs. Look at past decisions and circumstances to help you make the right choice now. ★★★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Sort out any differences you have with a partner or someone you are planning to do something with before you start down that path. Emotional issues will surface if money comes into the picture. Be upfront. ★★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): Right now you are overreacting to everything going on around you. Instead of fretting, get to the bottom of what’s bothering you. If change is necessary, stop fighting it and you will see how much easier it is to get ahead. ★★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): The barter system will work well for you if you are a fair negotiator. You can both win and can form a good longterm partnership if you work together. You may feel like celebrating but don’t let your emotional exuberance cost you. ★★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Don’t let your emotions take over your personal life. Something bigger and better is just around the corner but don’t let anyone in on what is happening. Remain mysterious for now. ★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Talking about what you want to do and actually doing it are not the same thing. Get busy presenting, promoting and pushing. Your plan is feasible, but keeping it to yourself isn’t going to amount to much. ★★★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Don’t let uncertainty stop you. Live up to what’s expected of you and you will realize your true potential. Success is built on failures, so shoot for the stars and don’t look back. You have what it takes. ★★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You have the drive, discipline and determination to turn your plans into reality but, if you let someone interfere or sidetrack you, a costly mistake will be made. You can be successful if you stick to the task at hand and have the confidence to go it alone. ★★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Stay on top of things by taking care of matters yourself. As soon as you rely on someone else, a problem will develop. Dealing with institutions will be stressful if you are unprepared. ★★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Someone who has caught your emotional interest will puzzle you. Don’t let your heart rule your head. Proceed with caution and don’t make promises that may cause you legal or financial grief. ★★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Your erratic behavior will confuse people. Don’t rely on things being as they appear or on people doing what they say. Say as little as possible and you’ll keep everyone guessing while you perfect what you are working on. ★★★★

Cy the Cynic advises against putting all your eggs in one basket: He says they’ll last longer in the refrigerator. But Cy ignored his own counsel in today’s deal. As declarer at 3NT, Cy was pleased when dummy’s queen won the first heart. But Cy next let the queen of spades ride, and West took the king and continued hearts. Cy had only eight tricks, and when he eventually led a club, West produced the ace and took three hearts. Down one. “I could’ve played for West to have both the A-Q of clubs,” the Cynic said, “but to no avail.”
TRICK TWO Cy put his contract in one basket. He should lead a diamond to his hand at Trick Two and return a club toward dummy. If West plays low, Cy puts up the king, placing West with the ace for his overcall. Cy then tries the spade finesse and has nine tricks even when it loses. If West grabbed the first club to lead another heart, Cy would take the king of clubs next. When the queen fell, Cy would be home. If not, he could finesse in spades.

DAILY QUESTION You hold: S K 8 5 H K J 10 9 5 D 9 7 C A 10 9. Your partner opens one diamond, you respond one heart and he bids one spade. The opponents pass. What do you say? ANSWER: You have invitational strength, balanced pattern and a club stopper, hence jump to 2NT. If you’re vulnerable and have more to gain by bidding game, you might risk a leap to 3NT or a temporizing bid of two clubs. Your hand is much more powerful than if you held K 8 5, K J 4 3 2, 9 7, A 3 2. South dealer Both sides vulnerable
ONE STAR: It’s best to avoid conflicts; work behind the scenes or read a good book. Two stars: You can accomplish but don’t rely on others for help. Three stars: If you focus, you will reach your goals. Four stars: You can pretty much do as you please, a good time to start new projects. Five stars: Nothing can stop you now. Go for the gold.

Weaver eager for Q-school rebound T
he grueling trek toward the dream of becoming a PGA Tour player started last week for more than a thousand golfers. It continues this week at six sites across the country, with some 450 competitors being whittled down to about 160 for the grand finale: a six-round SPORTS gut-check at Bear Lakes Steve Country Hanf Club in West ■■■ Palm Beach, Fla., from Dec. 2-7. There, the top 25 players earn PGA Tour cards, the next 25 are fully exempt on the Nationwide Tour and everyone else earns at least conditional status on the minor-league circuit. Heady stuff, certainly, what with hopes and dreams and livelihoods on the line. But it also happens to be stuff that High Point’s Drew Weaver can put in perspective. “There are a lot of good things that can come out of this week,” Weaver said Wednesday by phone from Pine Mountain, Ga. “Worst case is I’ll learn a lot and make some money on the mini-tours (next year). I can go out with nothing to lose, play as hard as I can. I’m certainly not playing every shot with the weight of the world on my shoulders.” Weaver teed off at the Callaway Gardens-Mountain View Golf Course on Wednesday for the first of four rounds in this second stage of Q-school. Exempt from the first stage thanks to making the cut at the U.S. Open in June, Weaver shot an even-par round of 72 that left him with an uphill climb the rest of the week. The first-round leaders were Ken Duke and Kevin Kisner at 8-under. Ten others joined Weaver at even in a tie for 57th place, and the worst score in the 77-man field was a 4-over. The top 20 and ties earn the trip to Bear Lakes, and Weaver starts trying to make his move today at 9:50 a.m. He’s part of a diverse group in this annual affair that includes the “young guns” like himself: some familiar faces from the college circuit and Kisner, a 20-year-old who recently
starred for the Georgia Bulldogs before turning pro and making the cut in two NationWeaver wide events this year; and the familiar names who fell below the Top 125 on the PGA Tour money list. At Callaway Gardens alone, the field includes household names such as Duke – a 40-year-old who won more than $4 million on the tour earlier this decade – Jim McGovern (3-under), Carlos Franco (2-under), Len Mattiace (1-under) and Robert Damron (1-over). “We really don’t have anything to lose,” said Weaver, who graduated from Virginia Tech last May following a standout career at High Point Central. “This is the beginning of our journey. I think we have the edge on guys who really need to get somewhere.” Weaver said nerves were not an issue Wednesday despite being out of competition mode. His last tournament came in the Nationwide event in Miami three weeks ago, but he said he wouldn’t trade that free pass into the second round. After 27 practice holes earlier in the week, Weaver got rolling Wednesday with birdies on the par-4 second and seventh holes. But a three-putt bogey followed at No. 8, and the momentum was gone. Weaver picked up a bogey-5 on the 14th hole and a bogey-6 at the 15th before coming home even with a birdie at the par-4 17th. “I didn’t feel in sync on the greens,” Weaver explained. “I felt like I hit a lot of good putts and didn’t get them down. I felt like my score didn’t really indicate how I played.” When the action resumes today, Weaver will be targeting some low numbers to land in the 10to 12-under range for the tournament. “It’s four rounds, and that’s what I’ve got to keep telling myself,” Weaver said. “With 54 holes left, you can drive yourself crazy thinking about where you are with the rest of the field. I just need to not make any stupid, aggressive decisions, go out there and make birdies.” shanf@hpe.com | 888-3526

Wake Forest’s Al-Farouq Aminu (1) shoots over High Point’s David Singleton during the first half of Wednesday night’s game at the Joel Coliseum.
Wake spurt dooms HPU BY GREER SMITH ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER
WINSTON-SALEM – High Point University made it interesting for a half. Up only three points at the end of the first half, Wake Forest made quick work of the Panthers at the start of the second 20 minutes and rolled to an 83-60 victory at Joel Coliseum on Wednesday night. Wake, finally taking advantage of its height and giving a better effort on defense, held the Panthers to nine points over the first 14 minutes of the second period as a 42-39 lead grew to 69-47. Wake held HPU to 15-percent shooting (3-of-19) over a 16-minute stretch while hitting 13-of-19 from the field and 8-of-10 from the free-throw line. HPU shot 24 percent for the half and was outrebounded 42-28. Al-Farouq Aminu led the Deacons (30) with 22 points and 10 rebounds. Nick Barbour paced HPU (1-1) with 15 points and Eugene Harris added 13.
HPU didn’t come out in awe of the Deacons, leading all but 75 seconds of the first half before trailing 42-39 at intermission. The Panthers took the fight to Wake early as Cruz Daniels blocked two shots and HPU tried to negate Wake’s height advantage with quickness. The scrappy play of the smaller Panthers forced Wake coach Dino Gaudio to opt for a smaller lineup after the first five minutes. Sparked by torrid 3-point shooting, HPU broke to a 9-4 lead at the 16:34 mark and enjoyed its biggest lead at 2214. The lead grew to as much as six at 33-27 when Harris bagged a 3 with just over seven minutes to play, making the Panthers 7-of-11 from beyond the arc and 13-of-25 overall from the field. Wake forced its first tie at 35-35 on Ish Smith’s free throws with 3:08 left in the half. HPU enjoyed its final lead at 39-38 on David Campbell’s free throws with 1:46 left in the half. gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3519

A
funny thing happened on the way to tonight’s Dolphins-Panthers NFL showdown in Charlotte. The teams stumbled, bumbled and fumbled their way to 4-5 records. I’m sure the folks at the NFL Network expected a better matchup when they drew up this schedule. I did, too. The Dolphins were the feel-good story of the NFL last season. They went from 1-15 in 2007 to 11-5 in ‘08. Miami set an NFL record for greatest single-season turnaround en route to the AFC East title. Quarterback
80 38
Chad Pennington earned NFL comeback player of the year accolades and the sky figured to be the limit for the Dolphins in ‘09. Well, the sky apparently fell on them. Pennington was lost to a season-ending shoulder injury in late September. Miami trails New England by two games in the AFC East race. The playoffs appear an unlikely dream for Miami. As for the Panthers, they matched a franchise record by going 12-4 last season. Carolina captured the NFC South crown and looked like a solid Super Bowl contender until Jake Delhomme’s infamous six-turnover
meltdown against Arizona in a 33-13 playoff loss. Still, Carolina looked like a solid bet for another great season in ‘09. Wrong. Delhomme continued his generous turnover ways to start this campaign, many of his teammates also struggled and now the Panthers find themselves five games back of the Saints in the NFC South. Carolina is a postseason longshot at best. You know what they say about the bestlaid plans...
YOUR COMMUNITY. YOUR NEWSPAPER.
– MARK MCKINNEY ENTERPRISE SPORTS EDITOR
The Raiders are benching former No. 1 overall pick JaMarcus Russell, handing the starting job to Bruce Gradkowski. Coach Tom Cable said after practice Wednesday that Gradkowski will get the nod Sunday against Cincinnati. Cable says the plan is for Gradkowski to start the rest of the season. Cable has pulled Russell for ineffectiveness in two of the past three games. This will be the second start for Gradkowski since 2006. He started one game last year in Cleveland and 11 games as a rookie for Tampa Bay in 2006.

ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORTS
JAMESTOWN – Khari Blue hit a layup in the final minute and Guilford Technical Community College played strong defense at the other end for a 63-61 win over Patrick Henry (Va.) Community College on Wednesday night. Blue’s final points gave him 15 for the game to go along with seven assists. Charlon Kloof added 15 points for the Titans, who improved to 7-0 overall and 3-0 in the Carolinas-Virginia Conference. The game was the first for GTCC as a ranked team. The school earned its first-ever spot in the NJCAA Division II poll this week, landing 10th. The Titans resume action Monday against Central Carolina Community College.
DCCC 94, BELMONT 75 LEXINGTON – Davidson County Community College cruised to a 94-75 win over the Belmont Abbey JV team Wednesday night. Roderick Geter led the Storm with 24 points, while A.J. Finney and Bryan Roberts each had 12. Derrick Mayo pitched in nine points. Former Trinity standout Eric Potts paced DCCC with 11 points and 14 rebounds. “If everybody on our team played as hard and thought as hard as Eric Potts plays, we’d probably be 6-0,” Storm coach Matt Ridge praised. “He plays extremely hard and I’m very blessed to be able to say I’m his coach.” DCCC returns to action Saturday in Chesapeake, Va., for the Tidewater Community College tournament. The Storm plays the host team at 4:30 p.m.

Jake Delhomme and the Carolina Panthers look to pass a crucial test against visiting Miami tonight. The game is set for an 8:15 p.m. kickoff and the NFL Network will provide television coverage. (Editor’s note: This network is not available to all area viewers.)
Panthers wary of Dolphins CHARLOTTE (AP) – Miami coach Tony Sparano and assistant David Lee get plenty of credit for making the wildcat a much-copied NFL sensation. Offensive coordinator Dan Henning had little trouble making it work – perhaps because he first used direct snaps to running backs when directing Carolina’s offense in 2006. It’s a story that’s often forgotten when the formation’s rise to prominence is discussed. “Dan added his two cents into the mix when we started talking about it a little bit and drawing up for our preseason stuff,” Sparano said. “He did mention at that time that it was something (the Panthers) did.” It’s with that backdrop that the Dolphins (4-5)
and Panthers (4-5) meet tonight in a critical game for their renewed playoff hopes. The main component of Miami’s wildcat, running back Ronnie Brown, won’t play because of a foot injury. But that only makes the Panthers more nervous in a short week. What will Henning, fired by Carolina in 2006 amid criticism he was too conservative, cook up to make up for Brown’s absence? Will Ricky Williams line up in that formation? What about rookie Pat White? Will they not use it at all? That wasn’t the case with the Panthers. Conservative coach John Fox limited what Henning could do. Many felt Henning was made the scapegoat after a miserable 2006 season.
CHARLOTTE (AP) – Carolina Panthers running backs DeAngelo Williams and Jonathan Stewart are questionable for tonight’s game against Miami with lingering injuries. Williams skipped practice Wednesday with a sore left knee, but coach John Fox said they were “resting” him. Stewart practiced in full after sitting out Tuesday with a sore Achilles’ tendon. Defensive tackle Damione Lewis questionable with a sore shoulder, but practiced Wednesday. The biggest concern for Carolina is defensive end Charles Johnson, who is doubtful after missing his second straight practice with a strained pectoral muscle. Johnson plays mostly on passing downs. Fullback Brad Hoover and safety Charles Godfrey are also doubtful, but aren’t expected to play because of ankle injuries.

High Point’s Mansfield wins Harris Teeter Senior Amateur Tour title SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE
SOUTHERN PINES – For the second time this decade, Kim Mansfield of High Point is the champion of the Harris Teeter Senior Amateur Tour. Mansfield shot a two-day total of even-par 143 to win the championship Wednesday. Mansfield, the 2002 champ, held off a charge by four players who finished a stroke back. He credited his opening round of 68 at National Golf Club for giving him the cushion needed in the final round at Pine Needles. “I played well both days. The dif-
ference was I made a lot of putts in the first round,” said Mansfield, a former member of National Golf Club. “I knew my way around the course at National, but still you have to make the shots.” A quartet of golfers finished a shot back of Mansfield in the Championship Flight. Rick Luzar of Pinehurst took second on a scorecard playoff, while Brad Kroll of Charlotte finished third after shooting the low round of the tournament, a 67. Fourth-place Denny Adkins of Myrtle Beach also closed with a 67. In the A Flight, first-round leader Tommy Lee of Knoxville hung on to
post a total of 151 and a three-shot victory over Chuck Latham of Pinehurst. The B Flight winner was Orlando’s Craig Stone at 156, while Lamont Ellison of Indiana took top honors in the C Flight at 173. Randall Robbins of Smithfield made a hole-in-one in the final round. Robbins, a member of the Pinehurst tour, aced the 160-yard 12th hole at National with a 6-iron. It was his second career hole-inone. In the battle for the team cup, Charlotte (1,276) rallied to edge Pinehurst by four shots.
WINSTON-SALEM – Ragsdale’s boys and Reagan’s girls posted victories in Wednesday’s season-opening swim meet at Winston-Salem State University. The Tiger boys prevailed 86-83, while the Raider girls won 114-55. Colin James sparked Ragsdale’s boys, capturing the 100 back and 200
free. Teammate Gabe Snyder took the 100 fly, while Landis Cranford won the 100 breast. James, Cranford, Lon Weeks and Jordan Hjelnquist teamed to win the 200 medley relay, while Hjelnquist, Weeks, Snyder and Dakota Cary won the 200 free relay. For Ragsdale’s girls, Nicole VonRyen won the 200 IM. Ragsdale plays host to Grimsley on Friday at 5:30 p.m. at the Jamestown YMCA.

Scioscia, Tracy bag Manager of the Year awards NEW YORK (AP) – The Los Angeles Angels could have crumbled when pitcher Nick Adenhart was killed in a car accident in April, overcome by waves of grief and sadness. Mike Scioscia kept them moving forward. “There wasn’t one defining moment,” he said. “I think as the season started to evolve guys found that sense of purpose to play baseball again and they played it at a very, very high level.” For his deft touch during a trying season, Scioscia won the AL Manager of the Year award on Wednesday for the second time. Jim Tracy of Colorado was selected for the NL honor. Tracy became the second manager to win the award after taking over during the season, joining Jack McKeon for Florida in 2003. Less than an hour after the award was announced, the Rockies
said Tracy had been rewarded with a three-year contract. “What we’re talking about this afternoon, it’s probably as flattering an experience as I’ve come to realize during the course of Scioscia my professional career in athletics,” Tracy said. “And obviously a new contract is extremely exciting. But what is more intriguing for me is what is still out there for our ballclub.” Tracy received 29 first-place votes and two seconds for 151 points in balloting by the Baseball Writers’ Association of America. Scioscia got 15 first-place votes, 10 seconds and one third for 106 points. The Rockies promoted Tracy from bench coach after Clint Hurdle was fired in late May and won the wild-card race. Scioscia and the Angels paid tribute to
Adenhart with their fifth AL West title in six years. Ron Gardenhire finished second in the AL voting for the second straight year and fifth time during his eight seasons as Minnesota manager. He also Tracy placed third in 2002, when Scioscia was honored for the first time, but has never won the award. Tony La Russa of the Cardinals, a four-time winner, was a distant second in the NL with 55 points. Lou Piniella of the Cubs and Joe Maddon of the Rays were honored last year. Colorado was 18-28 and 141⁄2 games behind NL West-leading Los Angeles when general manager Dan O’Dowd dismissed Hurdle on May 29 and offered the job to Tracy. “I didn’t immediately say yes,” Tracy
recalled. “I asked for 60 minutes to think about it and he told me you can have 60 but you can’t have 61 because he needed somebody down in the dugout to manage that night.” There was no Rocktober this year – Colorado lost to Philadelphia in the division series – but it was still quite the turnaround for the club and Tracy, who was fired after leading the Pittsburgh Pirates to a 68-94 record in 2007. The 53-year-old Tracy was out of baseball before becoming the Rockies’ bench coach in November 2008. Scioscia managed the Angels to their third consecutive division title during one of his most difficult seasons in the dugout. Los Angeles has earned six postseason berths in the last eight years under Scioscia, who was a catcher for the Dodgers for 13 seasons and retired in 1994.

Gustafson, Martin give Chase to Johnson two less than Johnson’s seven. They trail Johnson by 108 points, a difference that would be much smaller if MarSPORTS tin Truex Jr.’s spinning car Greer hadn’t hooked Smith Martin’s car ■■■ at exactly the wrong place near the right-rear tire and turned Martin over with a lap to go at Talladega. They’ve made the Chase even though they were working together for the first time this year. They made it even though they had to rally after suffering engine failure in two of the first three races of the season, finishing last because of a wreck in the spring wreck at Talladega and finishing 35th at Infineon and 38th in the July race at Daytona. They won the first race in the Chase, sparking thoughts of Martin possibly authoring a fairy-tale ending to the season by winning the championship. “If you look at where they were at the beginning of the season with a couple of DNFs, they never even blinked an eye,” Knaus said. “Yeah, they were upset and discouraged, but they never gave up hope that they were going to make the Chase, and man they came back with a force. “They are one of the most technically advanced teams. Their engineering is second to none. I think Alan is the smartest crew chief out there, I’ve been saying that for a couple of years. And I think it’s just a matter of time before they get their chance (and win the championship). It very well could be this year.” It won’t be their year unless Martin gains 109 points or more on Johnson for the 10th time in the 267 races they’ve met. It won’t be their

Mark Martin trails Jimmie Johnson by 108 points as he heads to Homestead-Miami Speedway for Sunday’s Cup season finale. year if Johnson finishes 25th or better no matter what Martin does as the wind blows through the palm trees at Homestead-Miami Speedway. “When you’re in the position we’re in, it is very frustrating,” Gustafson said. “We’ve done about everything that we could humanly possibly do. If I look back, the only race where I would second-guess myself is Lowe’s (where Martin finished 17th). I think at Lowe’s we could have done a little better and finished a little higher. “We’ve done everything we could do. We’ve worked as hard as we can work. Mark’s driven his tail off every week. The pit crew has practiced since December of last year preparing for this. So when you get into that situation and you are falling short, it is frustrating. Mark, in typical fashion, is putting the load on his shoulders and saying that he’s got to dig deeper. I don’t know if that’s the case. We’ve just got to polish our system or finetune our system just a bit. “We’re talking about a position here, two positions there, and we’ll be where we need to be. Mark, maybe he can do this better or that better, but it is not a huge gap. We’ve just got to close it a little bit.” gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3519

ark Martin’s crew chief couldn’t come up with a definite explanation. As the director of the only team that can prevent Jimmie Johnson from winning a fourth straight Cup championship, Alan Gustafson wasn’t able to come up with the reason that Johnson and crew chief Chad Knaus have been so successful for so long. He offered no insight, even though he and Martin work for the same company as Johnson and Knaus. If he has been given some tips by Knaus on how to become more successful, Gustafson wasn’t telling. “As far as what the 48 team has that nobody has, that’s a really tough question to answer,” Gustafson said. “If I could figure that out, I’d be working really, really hard to implement whatever that is. But I can tell you that they work as hard or harder than anyone in the series consistently.” The success leaves the impression that Johnson and Knaus operate at a different level than everyone else. That was true through the first seven races in the Chase as they built a one-race lead in the points before Johnson fell victim to one of Sam Hornish Jr.’s miscues at Texas. “What they’ve been able to do is extremely, extremely difficult,” Gustafson said. “I’ve given everything I have, and the team has and Mark has. Right now we’re failing a little bit short. Hopefully that will change. I do want to make the point that what they’ve been able to accomplish over the past four years and what they’ve done in this Chase is really remarkable. I’ve heard someone bring the Tiger Woods analogy into the equation ... and that’s probably one of the best ways to summarize how good they’ve been.” Gustafson and Martin haven’t been that far off. They’ve won five races,

Stocks drop on construction report NEW YORK (AP) – Stocks drifted lower Wednesday after an unexpected drop in home construction and disappointing forecasts from technology companies added to worries about the economic recovery. The modest drop came a day after major stock indicators closed at 13month highs. The Dow Jones industrial average slipped 11 points after having risen over nine of the past 11 days. Analysts say the market has been due for a break after the fast ascent. The Dow fell 11.11, or 0.1 percent, to 10,426.31. The broader S&P 500 index slipped 0.52, or 0.1 percent, to 1,109.80, while the
technology-heavy Nasdaq composite index fell 10.64, or 0.5 percent, to 2,193.14. Trading volume was light, as it has been for weeks. That suggests a relatively small number of buyers, which means the market may have trouble holding on to a surge this month that has vaulted the Dow up 725 points, or 7.5 percent. Investors are looking for any signals of further improvement in the economy to justify the gains that pulled major stock indexes off 12-year lows in March. Rising unemployment and tepid retail sales have some analysts worried that investors might have been too quick to place bets on a recovery.

– a supply magnified by a record number of home foreclosures. The figures also illustrate how much the fledgling recovery depends on government support. Builders broke ground on fewer homes in part because of uncertainty in October about whether Congress would extend a tax credit for homebuyers. Earlier this month, lawmakers renewed the credit and extended it to more buyers. Even with government aid, the weakness of the
housing sector is dragging on the recovery. “It will take a while before residential construction begins to contribute meaningfully to growth,” Jennifer Lee, an economist at BMO Capital Markets, wrote in a research note. The sluggish recovery is also holding down inflation. While consumer prices edged up faster than expected in October, they remain lower than they were a year ago. And inflation is expected to remain subdued.
The Labor Department said consumer prices rose 0.3 percent in October, a bit more than the 0.2 percent economists had expected. Core inflation, which excludes energy and food, rose 0.2 percent, compared with analysts’ expectation for a 0.1 percent rise. The higher figure was driven by another increase in energy prices and the biggest jump in new car prices in 28 years. The price of used cars and trucks also rose by the most since September 1980.
Dollar mostly lower on Fed prediction of assets that yield higher returns. The Fed’s current rock-bottom rate is weighing on the buck as traders use it borrow to buy up riskier assets, a market move called a “carry trade.” The market expects the Fed to start lifting rates around the middle or the second half of next year. In a speech to local business leaders Wednesday, St. Louis Fed President
James Bullard said “the FOMC did not begin policy rate increases until 2.5 to 3 years after the end of the past two recessions,” according to the St. Louis Fed’s Web site. Assuming that the Fed acted similarly to how it acted in the past, that could mean that it wouldn’t start increasing rates until 2012, he said. Bullard is slated to be a member of the Federal

WASHINGTON (AP) – The budding economic recovery is getting little help from the home building industry, which normally creates jobs and boosts growth as a recession ends. Construction of homes unexpectedly plunged last month to its lowest point since April, the Commerce Department said Wednesday. The weak figures show that builders still lack confidence that buyers can soak up the glut of unsold homes already on the market

American Express to buy Revolution Money ST PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) – American Express Co. said Wednesday that it will buy Revolution Money for about $300 million in an effort to stay current with ever-changing technology in the marketplace. Revolution Money, which was established by AOL co-founder Steve Case’s Revolution LLC in 2007, offers customers secure online payments whereby transactions are authorized with a PIN number. Its cards do not include names or account numbers.
IRS settles over foreign accounts MIAMI (AP) – More than 14,700 U.S. taxpayers came forward to disclose billions in offshore bank accounts in 70 countries under a voluntary Internal Revenue Service program allowing most to avoid criminal prosecution as long as they pay what they owe, IRS officials said Tuesday. A flood of people came forward in the last days before the amnesty program expired Oct. 15.
World chocolate makers vie for Cadbury LONDON (AP) – The world’s largest chocolate makers are gearing up for a potential corporate battle to buy Britain’s Cadbury, with Hershey and Ferrero saying Wednesday they were considering an offer to rival Kraft’s hostile takeover bid. Speculation had been mounting that as Cadbury resisted Kraft’s approach, other industry heavyweights would smell an opportunity and enter the fray. Hershey, the largest U.S. chocolate producer based in Pennsylvania, and Ferrero, the Italian maker of Nutella chocolate spread and Tic Tacs, are expected to join forces to compete with Kraft’s greater financial might.

Citi raises salaries for executives NEW YORK (AP) –Citigroup Inc. said its chief financial officer and cohead of global markets are getting raises, while CEO Vikram Pandit will continue to collect a salary of $1 per year. Citigroup, based in New York, faces restrictions on executive compensation because it received $45 billion in government bailout money after the peak of the credit crisis last fall. Salary caps for top executives were recently set by the Obama administration’s pay czar, Kenneth Feinberg, for Citi and six other companies that received big bailouts. The new compensation packages at Citigroup fall within the guidelines set last month by Feinberg, Citi said in a regulatory
filing submitted to the Securities and Exchange Commission. CFO John Gerspach’s salary was increased to $500,000 from $400,000, according to the filing late Tuesday. James Forese, cohead of global markets, will now make $475,000, more than double the $225,000 he previously earned. The pair will also receive “stock salary” for 2009. Gerspach will receive stock valued at $2.9 million as part of his compensation for 2009. Forese will receive stock valued at $5.4 million. Stephen Volk, a vice chairman at the bank, will continue to receive a base salary of $500,000. He will receive stock worth $3.4 million.
BMW becomes 2012 Olympics sponsor LONDON (AP) – BMW is the latest top-tier domestic sponsor of the 2012 London Olympics, and organizers remain in talks with additional potential investors. The German carmaker was presented Wednesday as the official automotive sponsor of the games in a deal worth an estimated $67 million in cash and services.
BMW will provide about 4,000 vehicles for athletes, officials and other members of the Olympic community. As the seventh toplevel sponsor and 24th overall of the games, the deal brings London’s total revenue from domestic sponsors to nearly $1 billion. The overall target is $1.17 billion.

NEW YORK – Oil prices wavered Wednesday as the government said American petroleum demand continued to tumble, while auto club AAA said it expects more drivers to hit the road during Thanksgiving weekend. Benchmark crude for December delivery added 61 cents at $79.75 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. In London, Brent crude for December delivery rose 78 cents to $79.75 on the ICE Futures exchange. AAA said that 33.2 million Americans would get in their cars and travel at least 50 miles (80 kilometers) over the Thanksgiving weekend, next Wednesday through Sunday. That’s an increase of 2.1 percent from 2008, even though a gallon of gas is 56 cents more expensive than this time last year.
