State jobless rate at historic high BY ELIOT DUKE Staff Writer

North Carolina’s unemployment rate reached a historic high in December. According to the latest statistics released by the North Carolina Employment Security Commission, the unemployment rate spiked nearly half a percent to a record 11.2 percent last month. This is the highest registered unemployment rate since the ESC began using the current methodology in 1976. After several months of actual

job gains and relatively no change in the unemployment rate, employment fell by 31,338 workers in December. May’s unemployment rate of 11.1 percent was the previous record. “The effects of a national recession continues to impact our jobless rate,” ESC Chairman Moses Carey Jr. said. “Clearly, too many people are without a job, which is why we are working hard to provide job search assistance — among other services — for job seekers, and unemployment benefits to thousands of people.” Since December 2008, employ-

ment has decreased by 191,258 workers, causing the unemployment rate to climb from 8.1 percent to more than 11 percent. Unemployment also rose by 19,022 workers to 505,939. “It was a little bit of a surprise,” said ESC spokesperson Larry Parker. “There hadn’t been much movement in the rate in the past several months, and we had actually seen some job creation lately. For this to happen was a little discouraging.” A slight increase in unemployment was expected in December

Family-owned pharmacy closes doors after 50 years BY ELIOT DUKE Staff Writer Thomasville Pharmacy spent nearly half a century in the Chair City, providing prescription drugs and health care products to citizens for generations. When the time came for owner Joe Greeson to retire, his logical successor seemed to be his daughter Amy, who had worked at Thomasville Pharmacy for much of her adult life. With 48 years of quality service behind it, the chances of the family-run business making a smooth transition under new leadership appeared quite good. A situation arose, however,

‘I just felt that at this time in my life, having to devote that much time to something wasn’t what I wanted to do.’ — Amy Greeson when Amy Greeson declined her father’s offer to take over the family business, ending Thomasville Pharmacy’s long standing relationship with its community.

Community Sponsor

“This was one of the hardest decisions I’ve had to make,” Amy said. “I just felt that at this time in my life, having to devote that much time to something, wasn’t what I wanted to do. It was difficult. I would be remiss if I didn’t say that it has been the highest honor for me to have worked so closely with my parents, and side by side with my father.” What made the choice so hard for Amy was her educational nonprofit called Healing Seekers. Amy has dedicated her life to the organization that explores the world looking for new medical cures and treatments for dis-

DCCC plans day to help students file for federal aid TIMES STAFF REPORT

Davidson County Community College will help Davidson and Davie county students apply and file for federal financial aid during “FAFSA Day,” on Saturday, Feb. 13, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. FAFSA Day will take place in the DCCC library located in the Grady Love Learning Resource Center on the Davidson Campus. FAFSA Day is designed for high school seniors, their parents and others who will enroll in college for the 2010-2011 academic year. They will receive assistance in both completing and submitting their free online application for the Free Application for Federal Student Aid. The priority date for submitting the FAFSA is March 31st. The FAFSA form is required to determine eligibility for federal, state and institutional aid at most of colleges and universities in the U.S. At DCCC, it is the first step in determining if students are eligible for other types of aid or scholarship assistance. DCCC financial aid professionals will assist students and parents in completing the form and submitting them electronically during FAFSA Day. To be able to complete the form, students and parents should each bring their Social Security numbers and their completed 2009 federal tax forms or December 2009 pay stubs if they have not yet filed their 2009 income tax returns. To simplify the process, students and parents should go online to www.pin.ed.gov to obtain a Personal Identification Number (PIN) prior to FAFSA Day. Those without PINs may still participate in FAFSA Day, but the process will be faster for students and parents of dependent students who bring their assigned PINs.

6 ways to make food last HELPING HAND ADVICE

MARY HUNT Syndicated Columnist You picked out the perfect head of garlic. It’s not two days old, and you pluck two cloves from it to make your famous spaghetti sauce. Now what? Where will you keep the rest of the head to keep it fresh until the next time you need garlic? On the countertop? In the refrigerator? Thankfully, our first great reader tip has the perfect solution:

KEEPING GARLIC. To keep your fresh garlic for an extended period of time, peel and place the cloves into a glass jar. Pour olive oil over them and put the lid on top. Store it in refrigerator until you’re ready to use it. — Audrey, e-mail

GREEN CHEESE. Keep your cheese from growing mold by soaking a paper towel in white vinegar. Wrap the towel around the cheese before putting it in a baggie. This really extends the shelf life of your cheese. — Camille A., Texas

BANANA SPLIT. Don’t buy a whole cluster of

bananas. They will all ripen at the same time. Buy singles at different stages of ripeness so you don’t have every banana ripen at once. — Linda S., Nebraska

PANTRY PARTY. I love using http://www. recipekey.com to plan my meals. I can enter all of the items that I have in my pantry and freezer. It will suggest recipes I can make with just the items I have available. I love it because I get to try something new and I don’t have to go to the store for just one thing. — Sarah, e-mail RECIPE WONDER. Menu planning is key to our financial success, as food is one of our biggest expenses. I found an online tool that makes menu planning easier and even fun! I recommend http:// www.plantoeat.com. You can easily upload your favorite recipes, quickly plan a weekly menu, create an organized shopping list and share your recipes with friends and family. I can’t believe how much fun I’m having with this tool. Plus, now my mom and I have an easy way to connect and share our recipes. — Tamara C., e-mail TASTY CRUMBS. I save the crumbs at the bottom of cereal, cracker or chip bags and put them into a plastic container. Later, I use these crumbs when making meatballs, hamburgers or meatloaf. The ce-

real crumbs are loaded with iron and make my meatloaf even better. — Emily S., e-mail

CORRECTION. A tip in your recent column titled “Fight Back Against the Creep Factor� involved canceling a bill on an unordered package and returning the package marked “Refused.� According to my postal clerk, if you open any part of the package, including the bill envelope on the outside, you must pay return postage to send the package back. Unwanted mail can be returned without cost to you if you write “Refused� on the package, but it must be unopened. If you have opened the package, use the postage-paid return label if there is one. Otherwise, call the sender to request one and, at the same time, cancel the unwanted subscription. — Mary J., e-mail

Hospice of Davidson County recently received a donation from one of the agency’s youngest contributors, Jessica Blair, of Thomasville. To celebrate her 11th birthday and in lieu of gifts, Jessica requested that friends and family designate money that would have otherwise been spent on her birthday present to Hospice of Davidson County.

The idea is the problem VIEWPOINT

DAVID HARSANYI Syndicated Columnist Generally speaking, would you favor smaller government with fewer services or larger government with more services? Fifty-eight percent of those polled by The Washington Post recently claimed they preferred smaller government with fewer services, with only 38 percent favoring a larger government with more services (and, yes, it is a terrific struggle not to place ironic quotations marks around the word “services”). This is the highest number for the “smaller government” category since 2002. And a full year into President Barack Obama’s term, most polls and state elections tell us that the electorate is walking — maybe sprinting? — back from the progressive economic policies that now dominate Washington. Some Democrats believed grousing about (the fully imagined) wild and unregulated days of the Bush years would be sufficient to pass sweeping top-down economic controls. Yet for all the presidential election-time happy talk, Americans have this sturdy historical aversion to “fundamental” reorganizations of their society. Still other Democrats convinced themselves that surging opposition to their big plans was fabricated, paid for by insurance companies or oil companies or some other reprehensible profitmotivated boogeyman they’d conjured up. They overestimated their mandate and underestimated the electorate. Many more Democrats continue to convince themselves that the party’s problem is flawed candidates or poorly communicated messages, as White House spokesmanRobert Gibbs conceded this week — because, presumably, the idea of socializing medicine is too nuanced and intellectually rigorous for the average voter to digest. Hardly. The predicament Democrats face is the opposite. Too many voters appreciate exactly what health care legislation entails. This is why Congress

conducts clandestine negotiations on legislation and trashes promises of transparency. This is why leading Democrats have embraced procedural tricks and senatorial bribery — and now the possibility of “reconciliation” — so they can adjust health care reform and pass it with a 51-vote majority. You’re gonna get it whether you want it or not. That’s what happens when these Democrats lose a debate. According to the latest NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll, only 33 percent of the public believes the health reform effort is a “good” idea, whereas 46 percent considers it a “bad” idea — with 55 percent disapproving of Obama on health care. What’s most striking about this poll is that opposition to Obama’s plan has increased 20 percentage points since April — coinciding, not surprisingly, with the president’s big push to convince us that it’s needed. The more people learn, apparently, the less they like. Now, I am under no grand illusions about democracy. The electorate can be mercurial and irrational — as nearly every election proves. Nor do I believe any ethical politician should abandon his core values simply because polls tell him it would be expedient. I say, keep fighting, Mr. President. Those of us who believe in capitalism need you. But the fact is we have one party controlling both houses of Congress — with historically impressive margins. We have an opposition political party Americans have lost confidence in. We have endured a frightening downturn that allowed the far left to advance a menu of stunning regulatory intrusions that normally would be non-starters. Finally, we have a charismatic and articulate president who, armed with a nearly national landslide, was given the stage to make his pitch on health care reform. If, with all that, the progressives cannot convince voters that the central cause of their movement is necessary, then it is not a messaging problem or a leadership problem, and it is not a Republican problem; it is an idea problem — a terrible idea problem.

Health insurance by command VIEWPOINT

STEVE CHAPMAN Syndicated Columnist The nice thing about elections is that they give you a choice not only of people but of policies. In the 2008 primaries, for instance, Hillary Clinton offered a health care plan that required everyone to get insurance, while Barack Obama’s blueprint had no such mandate. That was about the only difference in their suggested solutions. It was a big one, to hear Obama tell it. He aired a TV ad attacking Clinton because her scheme “forces everyone to buy insurance, even if you can’t afford it, and you pay a penalty if you don’t.” He, by contrast, stressed that he would encourage more coverage by offering federal help in paying for it, while trusting in the ultimate wisdom of individual Americans to make their own decisions. Voters had a clear choice, and they chose Obama and his voluntary plan over Clinton and her compulsory approach. That settled that. Or so we thought. But something happened after Obama arrived in the Oval Office. His deep faith in the free decisions of ordinary people soon evaporated. Last summer, after the House included a mandate in its legislation, Obama suddenly had a change of heart. ? Now, his new approach has a certain economic logic behind it. If you require insurers to take all comers, you create an incentive for people to go uninsured until

they get sick. They get the benefits of coverage without the burden of having to pay for it even when they’re healthy. A mandate would compel them to accept the bitter along with the sweet. But still: A mandate is a big intrusion into the personal autonomy that a free society is supposed to protect. You may be willing to do without medical care or treat your brain cancer with bee pollen. Too bad. You will have to buy insurance anyway. Is that coercive? Certainly. Is it constitutional? If it passes, we will find out, since there will be a legal challenge. Some legal scholars and state attorneys general take seriously the notion that, as James Madison asserted, “The powers delegated by the proposed Constitution to the federal government are few and defined.” Making people buy health insurance is conspicuously not among them. The Supreme Court has conceded many powers to the national government. But allowing it to force individuals to spend their own money to acquire a commodity they don’t want would go beyond its established boundaries. “Never in the history of the United States has the federal government ever required someone to engage in an economic activity with a private party,” Georgetown University law professor Randy Barnett has said. If the Supreme Court goes along, he said, “there’s pretty much nothing Congress can’t do.” Odds are the Supreme Court will accept this expansion of federal power, if only because accepting expansions of federal power is how most justices define their jobs. But just because it may be constitutionally permissible to lasso the uninsured and drag them into the health insurance corral doesn’t mean it is necessary or wise. Especially when

there are alternatives that avoid such naked compulsion — and that might be politically more feasible now that Democrats lack a filibusterproof majority in the Senate. The simplest option is to generously subsidize insurance purchases by many or most people. As it happens, both the House and Senate bills do that, offering tax credits for individuals and households whose income is 400 percent or less of the poverty level (which works out to about $88,000 for a family of four). Another is to let individuals without employer-provided coverage buy policies through a state-run insurance exchange, which would protect consumers against rejection on the basis of existing medical problems. Insurers that want to get this business would have to accept all applicants from the pool at uniform rates. And what about the problem of people buying in only after they get sick? The feds could discourage free-riding with a waiting period or a substantial penalty — say, making the sponger responsible for the first $10,000 of his expenses. You want the freedom to go uncovered? Then surely you will not mind shouldering the responsibilities that go with it. Otherwise, sign up now. These basic changes would go a long way to expand access to health coverage. They are proof that it’s entirely possible to simultaneously respect personal freedom and greatly reduce the number of uninsured. But only if you want to.

FROM PAGE A1 RATE From page A1 due to the holidays and seasonal hirings, but Parker said the problem is statewide. Leisure and hospitality — a state strength — suffered the largest loss of jobs with a decrease of 2,600. “North Carolina is a great state for leisure and hospitality all over the state,” Parker said. “From the mountains to

the beach, there’s a lot of great things going on year round. This is not just the beach, this is statewide. There are a lot of areas that just aren’t getting the traffic they’re typically used to.” Manufacturing and construction continue their downward spiral as another 2,100 jobs were lost between the two last months. Since the start of the recession in December, 2007, manufacturing jobs are down by 95,500 people, and the to-

tal job loss in the state is nearing 250,000 workers. In the past year, North Carolina has paid out more than $4.8 billion in unemployment benefits. “You wonder how much more can be lost when you look at certain sectors,” said Parker. “There’s no doubt manufacturing has clearly been the hardest hit one out of all of this.”

HELP From page A1 ally, I’ll get a report, but everything is happening so fast.” Volunteer requests also have risen since the disaster, but Ziegler wants everyone to know the chances of someone actually going to Haiti as part of the Red Cross’ relief effort is slim to none. Ziegler encourages anyone who wants to be a volunteer to join their local chapter and start learning how to assist in the event of a disaster closer to home. “We’ve had a lot of inquiries from the public as to how they can help,” said Ziegler. “At the same time, we’re also saying if you’re interested in becoming a volunteer, you’re not going to be able to go to Haiti. You can get involved in our local disaster plan and maybe, some day, you can join that International Disaster Relief Team. You have to start locally, getting trained and experienced

PHARMACY From page A1 eases. Healing Seekers is Amy’s passion, and the time needed for its cause made running a business too much for one person to handle. “I think everyone was pretty much in shock,” said Amy. “We’ve had people coming to us for years and years. You form relationships with your customers, and we valued that trust. I think it was hard for them to

and involved. There are thousands of Red Cross volunteers across the country, but only a few hundred are on this relief team.” Emergency Response Units (ERUs) already have provided family kits, including tarpaulins, blankets, kitchen sets and hygiene kits to 2,700 Haitians with another 25,000 people expected to receive relief supplies soon. More than 20 Red Cross flights have landed in Haiti, bringing in an estimated 100 tons of relief supplies. Two Red Cross Water and Sanitation ERUs are working to reach some 200,000 people left without clean water. Donations can be made at the local Red Cross office at 815 Phillips Ave. in High Point or the Lexington-Davidson chapter at 16 E. Center St. in Lexington.

Thomasville Pharmacy officially closed on Tuesday and Amy, along with the other employees, moved across Randolph Street into new positions at Rite Aid. Amy plans on working as a registered pharmacist at the new location while pursuing her dreams with Healing Seekers during her free

time. “The fact we were able to take everyone along was important to us,” Amy said. “Nobody was left without a job. We still get to see a lot of our former customers, which makes it a little easier.” Rite Aid is welcoming all former Thomasville Pharmacy customers. Replacing prescriptions will be easy. Replacing relationships will be the hard part. Staff Writer Eliot Duke can be reached at 888-3578, or duke@tvilletimes.com.

Greensboro man arrested for weapon violation TIMES STAFF REPORT

A minor traffic violation led to arrest of a Greensboro man for a weapon violation. According to a Davidson County Sheriff ’s Office press release, deputies with the Interstate Criminal Enforcement Unit stopped a 1998 Plymouth Neon Tuesday for a tag light violation. During the stop, officers smelled marijuana com-

ing from inside the vehicle, leading to a probable cause search. Officers located a 9 mm handgun lying on the driver side floorboard, partially under the driver’s seat, and one gram of marijuana. Officers tried to place Andrew Lawing, 30, of 2824 Vanstory St. Apt. 3C, under arrest, but the suspect struck and pushed the officers in the chest before fleeing on foot. Lawing ran into a wooded area along Old

BY ZACH KEPLEY Sports Editor One step forward, one step backward was the theme of the night for the Thomasville Lady Bulldogs. Thankfully for head coach Lacardo Means, they took just enough steps in the right direction to claim a victory. Thomasville tries to play at a fast pace, but it was a slow crawl for them all night in pulling off the 55-41 decision over rival Lexington in a Central Carolina Conference clash Friday night. “We made it a lot harder on ourselves than we needed to,” said Means. “We would play well for two minutes, then we would play poor for three. We didn’t do what we are capable of on the defensive end tonight.” Christina Carter did a little of everything for the Lady Bulldogs, notching a game-high 19 points to go along with seven steals and seven assists. THS pushed its league record to 3-1, with a 6-3 record overall. Carter was the catalyst in the second quarter that helped put Thomasville ahead by eight at halftime. Her 11 points in the frame helped mightily, and when she wasn’t scoring, she was generally the one creating for others. Inconsistency on defense helped keep the Yellow Jackets in it, as Jasmine Carter kept the guests within reach scoring in the post where she was by far the tallest. In the third quarter, though, Thomasville put together eight minutes of pressure that shook Lexington and determined the outcome. Joselyn Spires and Carter scored layups to open a 14-point quarter

Thomasville’s Jonesha Davis runs the floor on a fast break during the Lady Bulldogs 55-41 win Friday night in Central Carolina Conference play over rival Lexington. for the Lady Dogs. That number is not significant, but it looked a lot bigger considering the Yellow Jackets could only get five points to go on the board. Lexington scored its fifth and final point with 2:44 showing, and would not score again until the 7:00 mark of the final quarter. Meanwhile, Thomas-

ville was taking full advantage of precarious ball handling by LHS and converted layups on the break. After a Davis layup early in the fourth to make it 44-28, Thomasville shifted over into cruise control and coasted home. Thomasville has a tough road ahead next week as they play three times in a five day stretch.

One of the toughest coming Tuesday night when the Lady Bulldogs travel to powerful Salisbury. “If we do not play better than this on Tuesday, we are going to be in some trouble,” Means said. Davis contributed 10 points for Thomasville. Sports Editor Zach Kepley can be reached at 8883631.

Wake hands Heels third league loss BY BRIANA GORMAN Durham Herald Sun CHAPEL HILL — For the past four years, North Carolina’s Marcus Ginyard has enjoyed the program’s consistent success and prominence on the national stage. The Tar Heels won

23 games his freshman year and then at least 30 games the next three seasons, including an NCAA championship in April. In fact, the Tar Heels had not been ranked below No. 13 in the nation since Feb. 2006, before this week’s poll came out with them ranked No. 24.

So when Wake Forest beat UNC 82-69 on Wednesday to hand the Tar Heels their third straight loss and their fourth in the past five games, Ginyard said he feels like he’s wandered into unchartered territory. “It’s just something

that’s new to us,” Ginyard said. “I can’t ever remember being at home and our fans leaving early because we were down. It hurt a little bit to see that, and it’s just unfortunate that we’re in this position.

Wolfpack gets hot to charge by Blue Devils BY BRYAN STRICKLAND Durham Herald Sun RALEIGH — Duke tried zone defense. Duke tried fullcourt pressure defense. Try as they might, the Blue Devils couldn’t come up with an adequate an-

in the RBC Center crowd to storm the court at the final buzzer. “The key for us was to keep our composure,” N.C. State coach Sidney Lowe said. “You knew they were going to make runs. We responded when they made the

This is the season of outdoor shows. As I write this, I’m in Las Vegas for the biggest outdoor show in the world. SHOT Show attracts more outdoor media than any event in the world and Cherie and I are two of 1,500 outdoor journalists attending. With 93 countries represented, this show is so big that if you spend 15 seconds at each booth, you can’t cover the event in all four days. I’ve probably walked about 10 miles a day in covering the show. SHOT Show is at the Venetian and the walk from parking to the hall alone is at least a half mile. The show covers 700,000 square feet with aisles that are about 400 yards long. All this walking is making me look forward to the show I’ll be covering next weekend. While you won’t have to walk a marathon to see it, there’s a great show coming next week and it’s a lot closer to home. Friday and Saturday of next week, I’ll be at the Charlotte Fly Fishing and Upland Hunting Show with some distinguished company like Bob Clouser, Sarah Gardener and Brian Horsley, Ian and Charity Rutter, Dick Talleur, Jim Casada, as well as Dash and Dez Young. Some of the country’s best known specialists in upland hunting and fly fishing will be giving seminars on locations, special techniques, and patterns in fly fishing from the mountains to the coast. Upland game seminars will cover classic shotguns, dog training, and game preserve shooting opportunities. Interest in fly fishing has been on the rise for several years and upland hunting is growing due to the number of new game preserves in the state. This is the best opportunity this year to learn about every aspect of the sport. Whether you fish for wild trout in tiny streams or you aspire to offshore adventures on 60 pound cobia, there’ll be an expert at this show to cover your questions. There are over 100 different sessions in 12 different venues.

Haines named skipper of 2010 Grasshoppers TIMES STAFF REPORT The Florida Marlins announced that Andy Haines will be the manager for the 2010 Greensboro Grasshoppers. The announcement was made by Marlins Vice President of Player Development and Scouting and Assistant General Manager Jim Fleming. Haines will be joined by hitting coach Kevin Randel and returning pitching coach Charlie Corbell. Athletic trainer Julio Hernandez returns to the Grasshoppers for his third year. Haines joins the Grasshoppers for his first season, spending last season as the skipper for the Jamestown Jammers and the season prior as the hitting coach for the Marlins Gulf Coast team. Andy is no stranger to coaching; prior to joining the Marlins, he spent seven years coaching in independent baseball and college baseball. During his college days he coached current Marlin, Brett Carroll. Haines earned a bachelor of science degree from Eastern Illinois University and a master’s degree from Middle Tennessee State. Kevin Randel will fill the role as hitting coach for the Grasshoppers 2010 campaign. This will be Randel’s inaugural year as a coach, as he spent the 2009 season as a player for the Jacksonville Suns, helping the Suns win the 2009 Double A Championship. Randel has been in the Marlins Minor League Organization since 2002, and spent

the 2003 and part of 2004 seasons as a Greensboro Bat. Randel attended Long Beach State and was born in Anaheim, California. Charlie Corbell enters his tenth season as a minor league pitching coach. This will be his second season leading the Grasshoppers pitchers. Prior to joining the Florida Marlins organization in 2007, Corbell enjoyed five years as pitching instructor within the Washington Nationals minor league system. In 1983, Corbell was drafted by the San Francisco Giants in the 21st round out of the University of Arkansas. His seven year minor league playing career saw him rise as high as AAA-Phoenix before he was traded to Oakland for All-Star reliever Rod Beck. Hernandez returns to the Grasshoppers for his third year after serving as the athletic trainer for the Marlins’ Gulf Coast League team during the 2007 season. A graduate of the University of South Florida, Hernandez was named the 200405 College Medicine Athletic Training Student of the Year. The Greensboro Grasshoppers have drawn over 2.1 million fans in their first five seasons in NewBridge Bank Park. Season tickets and advertising packages are now on sale for the 2010 season. For more information, please contact the Grasshoppers office at 268-2255 or visit www.gsohoppers. com.

SPORTS Darlington gets truck race scheduled Your Town. Your Times.

NASCARMEDIA.COM

NASCAR has announced the addition of historic Darlington Raceway to the 2010 NASCAR Camping World Truck Series schedule.

CHARGE From page B1 6, 3-2) won its first ACC home game in three tries. “Our defense was the worst it’s been all year. It was never, ever good,” Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski said. “They were terrific, and we were not very good. In order to beat them tonight, we had to be terrific just to have a chance. “They had great energy and a great gameplan. They looked real fresh. We didn’t look fresh at all.” Hard-to-handle post player Tracy Smith proved even more difficult to handle than usual, scoring 23 points on 10-of-12 shooting. Veteran Dennis Horner, recently slowed by a knee injury, was full speed ahead, adding 20 points on 8-of-15 shooting. Three other N.C. State players cracked double digits. Point guards Javier Gonzalez and Farnold Degand combined for 26 points and 14 assists with just three turnovers, and freshman Scott Wood scored all 10 of his points after halftime. Duke’s lead trio of Kyle Singler (22 points), Jon Scheyer (21) and Nolan Smith (18) did much of their damage from the free throw line, hitting 20 of 24 between them but made just 18 of 46 from the field. No one else did much damage for Duke: Lance Thomas did grab 12 rebounds, but no one outside of the top three managed more than six points. For the Blue Devils, however, this game was more about defense — or a lack thereof -- than it was about whether their offense was balanced. Duke allowed 15 more points than it had in any game all season and had allowed just one previous opponent to shoot 50 percent, a 50.9-percent showing for St. John’s in a nine-point loss. While big man Brian Zoubek called the defensive effort “horrible,” Scheyer took a slightly more diplomatic ap-

HANDS From page B1 “But the bottom line is, we got ourselves here so we’ve got to find a way.” It also was the first time UNC has lost three consecutive ACC games since 2003 when it lost five straight games in Matt Doherty’s final season as head coach. And like that team, this year’s Tar Heels (12-7, 1-3) currently are sitting near the bottom of the ACC standings with things about to get tougher in the next few weeks as they play three of their next four games on the road. UNC is 1-5 away from Chapel Hill this season. “We’re extremely disappointed and we’re extremely frustrated,” UNC coach Roy Williams said. “It’s something we haven’t been through. “I didn’t give them a long speech after the game. I old them, ‘We have no chance if we fold. We have no chance if we give in.’ “ The players said they’re confident the Tar Heels can turn things around, but they will have to play better than they did against the Demon Deacons (13-4, 1-2). UNC shot a season-low 36.6 percent from the floor, while Wake Forest hit 50 percent of its shots, including 9 of 16 from beyond the arc. The Tar Heels were outrebounded and outscored in the paint and had no fastbreak points. “We have to do a lot better job in a lot of areas,” Williams said. It also did not help that UNC’s second-leading

proach. “This wasn’t our best defensive effort, but at the same time they did a great job of executing on offense,” Scheyer said. “We wanted to come out and not let them get any confidence, but they got so much confidence — and why shouldn’t they? They hit everything. “Give them credit. They punched us, and we didn’t punch back.” N.C. State never trailed after 21-6 run midway through the first half built a 29-19 lead. Horner and Smith accounted for 16 points during the seven minutes of domination. The Wolfpack appeared poised to head to halftime with a six-point lead, but when Scheyer had a shot in the lane blocked by Tracy Smith, the ball bounded outside, where Nolan Smith met it in midair in order to beat the buzzer with a 3 that made it 41-38. Any momentum gained from that play, however, faded fast. The Wolfpack hit 64 percent of its first-half shots yet still managed to start the second half even hotter. N.C. State started the half on an 11-3 run, interrupted only by a 3-pointer from Scheyer, to increase its lead to 52-41. Duke hadn’t trailed by more than 11 points all season, but the Blue Devils soon did. Duke whittled its deficit to 58-49 before yet another 11-3 spurt, this one punctuated by a slam for Horner on an alley-oop from Gonzalez for a 6952 bulge. The Blue Devils threatened to rally once more, answering with 10 of the next 11 points, getting within 72-64 at the 4:47 mark when Singler scored in the lane. But after N.C. State went more than four minutes without a field goal, Wood got away from Duke’s fullcourt press for a layup. Singler hit a couple of free throws, but then Gonzalez drained a fadeaway 3 from 26 feet over 6-10 Miles Plumlee that made it 77-66 and essentially ended it.

scorer and top rebounder, Ed Davis, missed the game with a sprained left ankle. Freshman Travis Wear started in his place and had a solid game (13 points, six rebounds), while senior Deon Thompson had 13 points but grabbed just three rebounds. Junior Will Graves led the Tar Heels for the second straight game with 16 points and a team-high eight rebounds. Wake Forest had four players finish in double figures, led by Ishmael Smith and C.J. Harris with 20 points each. Arguably the most important points for the Demon Deacons came from freshman Ari Stewart, who finished with 11. UNC had not led since the opening minutes of the game, but the Tar Heels began to threaten Wake Forest’s lead six minutes into the second half when Dexter Strickland cut the score to 4743. But Wake’s Tony Woods added a dunk on the other end to push the lead back to six, then Stewart hit three straight 3-pointers to put the game out of reach. The Tar Heels never got closer than nine the rest of the way. “It’s very frustrating losing games that we shouldn’t,” Wear said. “You’re kind of mind boggled at this point that you’ve lost three [straight ACC] games and you’re North Carolina. “But there’s a lot of games left in the season, and we can turn this around really quick and we’ve just got to keep fighting.”

SPORTS SHOW From page B4 From picking out a trout stream rod to picking out a bird gun, choosing a fishing guide or choosing a bird dog, choosing a No. 2 Clouser Minnow or a No. 16 Royal Coachman, fishing and hunting are about choices and you can make the choice to learn how to catch more fish and have a better hunt at the show. The seminars are only part of the menu for the Friday and Saturday show. There’ll be book signings, casting demonstrations, fly tying classes, dog demonstrations, location reviews and lots of vendors with fishing and upland hunting equipment. Dozens of the Southeast’s best guides, writers and upland hunting opportunities will be represented. There are also special classes with a chance to get direct hands on instruction from the masters. There will be two casting pools to allow you to cast with your equipment under the watchful hand of a famous instructor. These classes cost $75 and require preregistration but at last check, all still had space. Mac Brown’s Beginning Casting Class: One of the toughest issues for new fly fishermen is casting. Mac Brown has a class scheduled that will teach you the basics to gain confidence in becoming a better caster. If you’re just starting to fly fish, or need some help with your casting, this is the class for you. This is a beginners level class and you need to bring your rod. Correcting Casting Problems with Bob Clouser: Bob Clousers flies are famous, but his honest approach to teaching casting is equally respected. This class is for intermediate casters who are having problems. Where else can you get personal help from a legend in fly fishing? Michael Marui Advanced Casting: One of the best casters in the world, he will be there to help you sharpen your game. This is a great opportunity to step up your casting game. This class is meant for intermediate casters. You’ll need to bring your rod. Sarah Gardner Women Only: Sarah is one of the most respected fly fishing guides and casters in the Southeast, if not the country. She’ll be teaching a women only class on Saturday from 2-4 p.m. Her techniques will help you with power and distance, and prepare you for hassle free casting from a boat. This class is directed to women of all skill levels. You’ll need your own rod. Tying innovative Flies with Newer Material: A class with world renowned Dick Talleur. The emphasis in this class is on improved techniques and understanding the benefits of some newer materials. Students will get a fly tied by Dick with a signature card. The class is intended for intermediate level fly tyers. For me, being in Vegas is a little like being in Italy and not liking Italian food. I’d rather wash your car than gamble. I’m enjoying the show but $6 coffee and $8 hot dogs don’t work well

30, from 8:30 a.m. until 5:30 p.m. Admission is $15 per day, $25 for both days, $10 for uniformed military. Children under 12 are $2. For more information go to flyfishingshow.com

with my frugal nature. I’m a little worried about going through security at the airport, too. I’ve been told that security measures at McCarran Airport involve a machine that picks you up by the ankles and shakes the rest of the money out of your pockets. I don’t often bet but I’ll bet you’ll enjoy the Charlotte Fly Fishing and Upland Hunting Show. The show will be at the Park, on Independence Boulevard formerly known as the Charlotte Merchandise Mart. Hours will be Jan. 29, from 10 a.m. until 8 p.m. and Jan.

Greensboro Gun Show: The Greensboro Gunshow is coming next week at the Greensboro Coliseum Special Events Center. I’ve been a fan of this show since the beginning. There’ll be tables from local and distant dealers as well as local collectors displaying their stuff. You can see it all at

a good gun show and Greensboro is the best show around. This has been the best gun show in North Carolina for over 25 years with over 600 tables. Whether you like modern guns or old guns, this is a good way to spend a winter weekend day. Tickets are $8.

Dick Jones is a freelance outdoor writer living in High Point. He is a retired competitive shooter, and NRA Certified Instructor. He’ll be teaching Choosing a Classic Shotgun and Game Preserves, the Future of Upland Hunting at the show. He

does public speaking for clubs and organizations, hosts outdoor events, and helps church and youth groups raise money with outdoor events. You can visit his website at offtheporchmedia.com and contact him at offtheporch52@yahoo.com.

Edward Jones named to ‘Best Companies to work For’ list

The financial-services firm Edward Jones ranked No. 2 on FORTUNE magazine’s “100 Best Companies to Work For 2010” list in its 11th year on the prestigious list, according to the two Thomasville financial advisors, Kevin White and Tim O’Flaherty. Edward Jones also ranked No. 1 for large-sized companies. The full list and related stories appear in the February 8 issue of FORTUNE, available on newsstands Jan. 25 and currently at www.fortune. com/bestcompanies. Edward Jones’ 11 FORTUNE rankings include top 10 finishes for eight years and consecutive No. 1 rankings in 2002 and 2003. This is the firm’s second consecutive year in the No. 2 spot. In naming Edward Jones to the list, FORTUNE editors said: “The investment adviser weathered the recession without closing one of its 12,615 offices or laying off a single employee. Salaries were frozen, but profit sharing continued.” “This honor is especially gratifying in the face of the adversity and challenges the financial-services industry has faced the last two years,” said James D. Weddle, Edward Jones managing partner. “But we were able to stay focused on the long-term

because we are a partnership and we know who we are and what we do. We had no layoffs. We had to make some difficult decisions in terms of cutting back expenses, which we did successfully. But when you respect the people who work here, you take care of them not just in the good times, but in the difficult times as well.” To pick the “100 Best Companies to Work For,” FORTUNE partners with the Great Place to Work Institute, a global research and consulting firm with offices in 30 countries, to conduct the most extensive employee survey in corporate America. Two-thirds of a company’s score is based on the survey, sent to randomly selected employees. The survey asks questions related to employees’ attitudes about the management’s credibility, job satisfaction and camaraderie. The remaining third is based on a company’s responses to the Institute’s Culture Audit questionnaire, which asks detailed questions about demographics, pay and benefits, and openended questions about hiring, communication and diversity. Currently, Edward Jones has more than 600 positions available throughout the country. The largest positions open are that of financial

SECU members contribute to scholarship fund TIMES STAFF REPORT

The SECU Foundation, which is funded solely by members of State Employees’ Credit Union, recently increased its educational scholarship funding by $4 million, bringing the cumulative total provided for North Carolina educational scholarships to $25 million since 2004. The additional funding will supply one $10,000 “People Helping People” Scholarship to each of the traditional public high schools in North Carolina. These four-year college scholarships will be awarded to graduating seniors for study at one of the sixteen constituent campuses of the University of North Carolina system. As college costs continue to rise, the “People Helping People” Scholarship program offers SECU members a way to give back to their local communities and helps to ensure the ongoing success of North Carolina students. The $10,000 scholarship amount makes it one the premier awards to be received by North Carolina high school seniors. Recipients are chosen by each individual high school’s scholarship selection committee, tasked with finding a deserving student who embodies the Credit Union “People Helping People” spirit. And, nearly 90 percent of the inaugural recipients from 2005 have completed their undergraduate degrees, an exceptionally high rate for standard

scholarship programs. “As North Carolina’s economy continues to struggle, many families have been faced with choosing basic necessities over assisting with educational expenses,” Shirley Bell, Board of Directors Chairman of SECU Foundation, said. “Therefore, the availability of scholarships is more important than ever. SECU members are known for their generosity in local North Carolina communities and providing the ‘People Helping People’ Scholarships is another example of their giving spirit.”

advisor and branch office administrator. Each Edward Jones branch office includes one financial advisor and one branch office administrator who work one on one with clients in the communities where those clients live.
