Unparalleled Dedication Couple awarded for service to American Red Cross

BY KEVIN REID Times Correspondent

The N.C. Department of Transportation’s announcement of major renovation work to begin later this month at the rest area, off of Interstate 85 just south of Thomasville, ended Mark Scott’s efforts, plans and dreams of getting a state-operated welcome center in that location. Now Scott, the director of Thomasville Tourism, is working on another plan to find a way to promote the Chair City at a location near the interstate. “We actually had a place pretty close by I-85, but that place turned into Ruby Tuesday,” Scott revealed. “That’s a good thing because we are glad to have a national chain restaurant in town.” Scott and the city’s tourism commission have been working to get an interstate presence for about eight years. Many of those years were spent trying to arrange for a welcome center to replace the rest area, which had been slated for expensive renovation for some time. Scott, noting that there is no state welcome center in North Carolina on I-85, figured it would be a better use of taxpayer’s dollars to spend the seven-figure sum of money converting the rest stop into a tourism-generating welcome center rather than spend the $1.7 million just to renovate it, which is now about to be done. “It’s disappointing, but that doesn’t mean we’ve stopped [looking for an interstate presence],” Scott said. “We’ve gone onto looking for other av-

HIGH POINT — Bobbie Clodfelter may be down, but she’s not out. With her 78th birthday approaching, the silverhaired Thomasville native is recovering from some leg problems that caused her to be on the other end of a cause she has supported for much her life. At Wednesday’s Red Cross Board of Directors meeting, Bobbie vowed to continue her efforts as a volunteer, just as she has done for the past 27 years. For that dedication, Bobbie and her husband, Van, were recognized as recipients of the 2009 Ed Welch Award. Established in 2004, the award is given out to individuals who demonstrate an uncommon commitment to blood services and to the recruitment of blood donors. “I’m going to start back,” Bobbie Clodfelter said. “I’ve been out a couple of years but I’m getting to where I can get around a little bit. I just love the Red Cross.”

The couple originally received the award on Aug. 21 at the Carolinas Blood Service Region Celebration of Excellence banquet in Durham. While Bobbie knew of the award, she elected to keep her husband in the

dark until the last minute. “I was surprised,” said Van Clodfelter, 81. “They called and let her know why we had to be [in Durham], but she didn’t tell me. When they started reading off all the stuff I

realized it was us. It was a total surprise to get an award like that.” Bobbie and Van are known as “Mr. and Mrs. Red Cross Blood Drive” by donors and the couple

This fall, school officials will face some new challenges now that the H1N1 “swine flu” virus is spreading ahead of the normal flu season. Last Friday, a game between the Central Davidson and North Davidson High School varsity football teams was canceled when several of the Central players were told by their doctors that they had the “swine flu.” “Right now in North Carolina,

H1N1 is the flu strain that is predominantly going around,” said Jen Hames, health education director for the county health department. Dr. Fred Mock, Davidson County Schools superintendent, said DCS is meeting with the health department almost weekly, and they don’t expect that the virus will cause any more absences than the seasonal flu might during its peak time. “When you look at the entire population, the numbers are not alarming at this time,” Mock said. “In certain schools and in certain

He said that the H1N1 virus seems to be a moderate strain, not a severe one, but the system will watch it closely.

Eight local municipal candidates discussed issues of real estate and growth at a forum held Wednesday at Safari Steakhouse In attendance were Thomasville Mayor Joe Bennett and mayoral candidate Earl Harrison, Trinity City Council candidate Robin Russell, Thomasville City Council members Scott Styers and George Burton, and Thomasville City Council candidates Carl Shatley, Jay Browning and Jackie Jackson. The High Point Association of Realtors hosted the forum and asked the candidates questions, which they each answered in turn. When asked about their vision for the revitalization of Thomasville, most agreed that the downtown area was key. “A lot of our focus has been on the downtown area,” Yemm said. “When your downtown is active and vibrant, the rest of the town will follow suit.” Yemm, Bennett, Styers and Burton pointed out

New State Farm Agency opens in Archdale TIMES STAFF REPORT

ARCHDALE — State Farm-the Jeff Fuller Agency hosted a ribbon-cutting/open house from 10:30 a.m. to noon Wednesday, Sept. 16. The public was invited to meet Fuller and his staff who represent over 30 years of experience in the insurance industry. “With our combined years of experience, and

the foundation of State Farm which is almost 100 years old, we believe we serve our clients needs professionally and with integrity,� says Fuller. The ribbon-cutting ceremony took place at 10:30 a.m. at the office located at 172 Baker Road, Suite 201 in Archdale. Refreshments, office tours, and giveaways were offered as the agency opened its doors to the community. “Our goal was to in-

troduce ourselves to our community, say thank you to our current clients and let the residents of Archdale and Trinity know that we want to help them find answers to their insurance needs. We always welcome the community to stop by and give us the opportunity to meet them.� For more information, call 431-2599 or visit www. jeffullinsurance.com.

Allen Tate introduces mobile texting TIMES STAFF REPORT

Allen Tate Company (www.allentate. com), the Carolinas’ leading real estate company, has introduced yet another convenient way for potential home buyers to access information about available properties: mobile texting. Through its partnership with CellSigns, a leading mobile applications company, consumers will have instant access to property information from their cell phones through text messaging. “Today’s consumers are looking for information instantly. They can now receive information about a home, the number of bedrooms and baths, approximate square footage, and even view photos of the inside, all while standing on the front lawn holding their

cell phone. And, if they want more information, they can contact the listing agent via text message to schedule an appointment,� said Pat Riley, president and COO of Allen Tate Company. The service is launching this week throughout the Charlotte, Triad, Triangle and Upstate South Carolina regions. Properties with mobile texting capabilities will be identified with sign riders, indicating the unique property ID and text messaging number. The mobile texting technology is compatible with all types and brands of cell phones. “This technology is a win, win, win. It provides our customers instant access to the information they want, but it also gives our agents and their sellers a competitive edge in today’s marketplace,� added Riley.

Socrates argued that one must “Know thyself � to be wise, and gave birth to the idea that the unexamined life is not worth living, even though it cost his. Why is it so important to know yourself ? Isn’t that notion an exercise in narcissism or an excuse for navel gazing? Let’s play devils advocate for a moment and assume it is NOT important to know yourself (whatever that means). If we avoid self reflection, keep our noses to the grindstone and focus on the present, what’s the harm? We go through our days carrying myriad messages in our minds. Some of those messages are in the form of voices from our past. Affirming or destructive, these ‘silent partners’ (Choice Points, Rice, 2004) shape our world views and our self concepts. Many of our early learnings slip into our invisible “results systems� (Rice, 2004) and hum along affecting perspective and choice, day in and day out. We do much of what we do because we’ve always done it that way. Or because we’ve never really thought about doing it any other way. Patterns are repeated

and become deeply embedded into our ways of being. When they serve us well, all is well. When they ill-serve ‌ an interruption in the pattern is needed. We profit, in this instance, by being able to step back and SEE our own behavior, our own way doing things or looking at things. This is a picture of one way to become more self aware. The benefits include being able to navigate choice in more informed ways, or being able to interrupt a negative pattern or behavior. We can become more our own person, clear about who we are and our place in the world. We have seen struggle, and have accepted our own strengths and limitations. Armed with this kind of knowledge, it is easier to rejoice with those who experience good fortune and to show compassion for the struggle of others. Self-Awareness, the first piece of Daniel Goleman’s Emotional Competence Framework, is defined as ‘knowing one’s internal states, preferences, resources and intuitions.â€? He suggests that self-aware-

ness it is comprised of three distinct attributes: emotional awareness, accurate self-assessment, and self confidence. My professional experience bears this out. When working with individuals who cannot deal with their own emotions, who assess themselves in a radically different way from work associates, or who underplay or overplay the bravado card, danger lurks. Before self regulation, motivation or social competence can be developed, self awareness must be present. It is the foundation, the cornerstone of emotional intelligence. Maybe Socrates said it best, “Know thyself.� Marilyn Taylor is the owner of Taylor Training and a certified coach/corporate trainer with the Boston Coaching Company.

Silver Valley Civitan Project Santa earns sixth district award TIMES STAFF REPORT

The Silver Valley Civitan Club caps their golden anniversary year by earning the Most Distinguished Service Project Award from North Carolina District West Civitan for a third consecutive year and the sixth time overall. The 42nd edition of Project Santa Claus brought Christmas joy in 2008 to 54 families with gifts having an estimated value of $8,500. Around 65 volunteers delivered food, toys and clothing to around 310 people. Project Santa was previously selected for the district award for efforts in 1994, 1997, 2000, 2006 and 2007. PSC has also earned 20 competitive awards from Civitan International over a 13 year period. The latest honor was presented along with other awards to SV Civitan at the 44th annual convention in Hickory. The meeting was held September 11-13 at The Crowne Plaza. Special guests included Civitan International President Danny Jackson and his wife, Corine, of Nashville and Director Joe Parker and his wife, Evalee, of Durham. Delegates representing Silver Valley at the conference were President Dale. L. Hughes, Immediate Past President Chris Hughes, Secretary Joyce Hughes and Gary Arnold. SV Civitan earned the Working Together We Can Do It Award, a first level achievement honor recognizing overall performance based on ser-

vice, fund raising, membership growth, club management, programs, education, and participation in district and area activities. Only two dozen of the district clubs earned the award. Silver Valley leads all clubs in the district having earned comparable awards 31 of the past 34 years. Bulletin, the SV Civitan newsletter edited by Gary Arnold, garnered first place honors among large clubs. Other clubs honored in the category of 30 or more members were Charlotte and Davidson County.

Arts United for Davidson County has been awarded $42,072 from the North Carolina Arts Council for Grassroots Subgrants. Arts United receives funding from the Grassroots Arts Program of the NC Arts Council, a state agency funded by the State of North Carolina and the National Endowment for the Arts. Half of this funding is supporting the many programs of Arts United, such as ArtSmart educational programs in the schools, free outdoor concerts, and Young Artist Scholarships. This amount ($20,072) represents approximately 22% of Arts United’s annual budget. The other half of the funds ($21,100) is being sub-granted to other organizations in the community through a simple annual application process. If there were no Arts United, Davidson County would not receive Grassroots funding for arts projects through this process. Grassroots Arts funding is for art projects in any discipline designed to enhance the general arts environment of the county, educate children and the public, entertain residents, attract tourists and improve the overall quality of life.

Democrats failed on digital divide, too BY MONA CHAREN Syndicated Columnist The Democrats have never seen a problem they didn’t think could be fixed with a government program. And they sometimes discern crises crying out for government solutions where there are none. Remember the “digital divide”? It was, we heard from Sen. Jay Rockefeller, D-W.Va., in 1998, “the next civil rights movement.” The unconscionable gap in Internet access between whites and minorities required, of course, a new $2.25 billion annual tax (it was called the “E-rate”) to be levied on telecommunications companies (who naturally passed it along to their customers). Congressman Bobby Rush, D-Ill., outlined the liberal understanding: “There are millions of youngsters who are struggling right now to become a part of American society, struggling to become productive in the American society, who are fighting without any of the technological advantages that are available to others. These individuals will soon be road kill on the information superhighway because they won’t have access to the kind of technology, access to computers, access to the Internet. They won’t be productive members of society. If in fact this E-rate is diminished, or if this E-rate effort, if it’s derailed then we are really creating two different societies.” The Clinton administration picked up the cudgels, too. In 1998, speaking to graduates of MIT, President Clinton lamented that “... Today, affluent schools are almost three times as likely to have Internet access in the classroom; white students more than twice as likely as black students to have computers in their homes. ...” While acknowledging that “the digital divide has begun to narrow,” he warned that “it will not disappear of its own accord.” Perish the thought. We can’t have problems disappearing of their own accord. The National Telecommunications and Information Administration (now there’s an Orwellian name) produced several studies of the problem. A 1997 report on digital “haves and have nots” worried that America faced a “racial ravine.” Though “all racial groups now own more computers than they did in 1994,” the report continued, “Blacks and Hispanics now lag (SET ITAL) even further behind (END ITAL) Whites in their levels of PC-ownership and on-line access.” (Emphasis in original.) And so the busy bees of the federal government created task forces, imposed taxes and mandates, funded research, and generally played Chicken Little. Flaws in the Commerce Department data were

noted immediately. It failed to account for online access at work and school for example. Besides, the march of technology, which led to decreasing prices, soon made computers affordable for a large majority of Americans anyway, including members of minorities. A 2005 survey by AOL found that 80 percent of African-Americans were online (compared with 88 percent of all Americans), and that 66 percent had high-speed connections compared with 53 percent of the general population. A 2008 Yankelovich survey found that 90 percent of AfricanAmerican teens had Internet access. If there is any “digital divide” in America today it is between those over age 76 and those under. Among the older group, only 27 percent are connected to the Internet. Does the Department of Commerce know about this? Liberals are usually content to believe themselves well motivated and seldom take any notice of outcomes. So when liberal academics actually study the effects of computers in the classroom, it deserves mention. It’s even more noteworthy when one of the authors of the study is none other than Austan Goolsbee, currently a member of President Obama’s Council of Economic Advisers. In 2003, Goolsbee and his University of Chicago colleague Jonathan Guryan examined just what the annual $2.25 billion subsidy to schools was achieving. It had, they estimated, advanced the adoption of computers in schools by as much as four years. Or possibly not. “Even without subsidies,” the report acknowledged, “many school districts chose to make Internet investments. It is therefore difficult to distinguish between the effects of the E-rate program alone versus the already strong upward trend in the fraction of schools with Internet access.” Nevertheless, Goolsbee declared E-rate “a tremendous success” in wiring up the nation’s schools. What he and Guryan did not find, however, was any evidence that Internet connections improved student performance. The study admitted: “The authors looked at test scores for math, reading, and science. Their results showed no evidence that investments in Internet technology had any measurable effect on student achievement.” There are dozens of reasons that a congressionally designed overhaul of America’s health care system is a terrible idea. One of those reasons is that liberal nostrums do not have an impressive track record. To find out more about Mona Charen, visit the Creators Syndicate web page at www.creators.com.

Why can’t we all just get along? VIEWPOINT

DAVID HARSANYI Syndicated Columnist C’mon, everyone knows the hullabaloo surrounding President Barack Obama is bigotry in action. The administration’s policy initiatives couldn’t possibly provoke any authentic anger or protest. Proving this dastardly motive, on the other hand, has been problematic. But there are ways around this dilemma. Unearth some crazy outliers. Create caricatures. Recognize “code” words. Reduce to absurdity. And presto! “Surrounded by middleaged white guys — a sepia snapshot of the days when such pols ran Washington like their own men’s club — Joe Wilson yelled ‘You lie!’ at a president who didn’t,” declared Maureen Dowd in her Saturday New York Times column. “But, fair or not, what I heard was an unspoken word in the air: You lie, boy!” Of course, it’s fair. If inserting a racial epithet into a quote is wrong, I don’t wanna know what’s right. It is, moreover, common knowledge that middle-aged white men are bigots. If there’s a problem with Dowd’s premise, it’s that Wilson likely lacks

the intellect to string together more than two words per sentence. He is from South Carolina, after all. Howard Kurtz of The Washington Post began to sniff out this racism when he heard “tea party” folks “shouting about ‘the Constitution’ and ‘taking our country back.’ Maybe Obama’s health-care plan is an awful idea and his budget is way too big, but how exactly is any of this unconstitutional?” For argument’s sake, let’s concede that “tea partiers” are collectively misinformed regarding constitutional law. Does logic not then dictate — nay, demand — that they are motivated by racism? Or perhaps demonstrators are devious enough to feign collective ignorance of the Constitution so they can be surreptitious (but not surreptitious enough to fool Kurtz!) racists. It’s true that things haven’t been going smoothly for Change. And increasingly, we hear that anyone who opposes Obama too vociferously is hampered by the thought of a black man as the president of the United States. Conservatives, it seems, never have opposed a president before. When right-wing radio talk show hosts and bloggers uncovered the past radicalism of green czar Van Jones, who was tasked with steering billions of dollars toward creating “green jobs,” progressives immediately claimed racism and McCarthyism. The right, apparently, never has gone after an Anglo-Saxon administration member. Politico reported that Rep. Eddie Bernice Johnson, D-Texas, chalked up all this anger toward Barack Obama to racial tensions.

“As far as African-Americans are concerned,” she claimed, “we think most of it is. And we think it’s very unfortunate. We as AfricanAmerican people of course are very sensitive to it.” “We”? Incredibly, Johnson speaks for tens of millions of African-Americans. (“We” Jews haven’t been blessed with that kind of leadership since Moses.) What’s next? Why are all these misogynists targeting Nancy Pelosi? Why are these homophobes continuing to rail against Barney Frank? Chuck Schumer? You guessed it: the Jews. Who dictates what level of anger and dissent is allowable? Who decides what a clandestine racist sign looks like? Maybe someone like MSNBC’s Carlos Watson, who wondered whether “socialism” is really about the nationalization of industry and hyper-regulation of the private market or whether it’s just “becoming the new N-word.” None of this has anything to do with the left’s paranoid belief that America is an inherently racist nation. It’s just that if you oppose more government dependency and expansion, you might as well be a Confederate infantryman. No, it doesn’t matter what you say, because we know what you really mean.

Letters to the Editor To the Editor The city of Thomasville’s response to one of the largest sewage spills in N.C. in over a decade is almost as appalling as children swimming for weeks in 15.93 million gallons of raw sewage — laden with disease pathogens, bacteria, viruses, toxins, antibiotics, hormones and other prescription drugs that can cause serious illness, leave lesions and open festering sores on anyone who comes in contact with it. Public Utilities Director Morgan Huffman failed to adequately review plant data once the spill was allegedly first detected on Aug. 4 and grossly (perhaps intentionally) under reported the spill by 15 million gallons.

Huffman failed to mention or tell the media an EPA Criminal Investigation prompted the town to suddenly amend their report, which was first reported to Yadkin Riverkeeper by plant employees who claimed town officials were intentionally under reporting the spill. Now, Thomasville City Manager Kelly Craver is reassuring the public all is well because he visited the Abbots Creek area and toured High Rock Lake on his jet-ski weeks after the incident occurred. Mr. Craver, it is impossible to see fecal bacteria, disease pathogens or the growing algae blooms that could later cause fish

Thomasville political leaders must conduct their own investigation, hold whoever is responsible accountable for their actions and provide the necessary funding to rehabilitate leaking sewage lines, develop new collection system designs and commit to upgrading treatment standards or risk potential litigation. Yadkin Riverkeeper will push the state to enforce the maximum Clean Water Act fine of $650,000 if the town fails do this. Dean Naujoks Yadkin Riverkeeper Winston-Salem

Those groups include pregnant women, people who live with or care for children younger than 6 months, health care and emergency medical services personnel, people between 6 months and 24 years of age, and adults age 25 through 64 with chronic health disorders or compromised immune systems. Despite the new H1N1 virus, the health department is issuing the same recommendations this flu season as it does every fall. “Wash your hands, wash your hands, wash your hands,” Hames said. “That’s the best thing a person can do to prevent illness.” The department also recommends that people cover their mouths with their sleeve or a tissue when they cough or sneeze; avoid touching their eyes, nose or mouth; avoid close contact with people who are sick; and stay away from other people if they are sick.

Thomasville has already put last week’s 14-13 loss to Albemarle behind them, because they know a trip down to Mocksville is going to test them for a fourth straight week. The Bulldogs (1-3) will attempt to end its three-game losing skid Friday night traveling to War Eagle Stadium to tangle with 1-3 Davie County. Davie found the win column for the first time last week in a 26-7 thumping of Providence Day, but do not be fooled by the slow start of the 4-A school. They lost in week one without their Brown quarterback then had difficult games against West Rowan and Page. “The games they have lost have been against quality opponents,” said Allen Brown, head coach of the Bulldogs. “They are a tough matchup for us. The record for them is deceiving and I hope that ours is too for that matter.” Defensively, the Bulldogs have not been as sharp with a young cast of talented players still getting acquainted with the speed of varsity football and playing on Friday nights. They looked much better against a

Albemarle held them to 196 yards of total offense, crowding the line of scrimmage and forcing THS to pass. Quarterback Sam Nelson threw for 128 yards and two touchdowns in the game, but could not push in the biggest score from three yards out when the Bulldogs went for two with 11 seconds

Yates shows maturity late in UConn game

Davidson County Community College’s volleyball team continued its hot streak of late, winning on the road at Central Carolina Community College in straight sets, 2518, 25-12, 25-12 Tuesday. Logan Ballue and Katie Watkins paced the Storm attack putting away 12 kills each, while Lauren Leonard added nine kills and Whitley Saintsing 11 blocks and seven kills. Watkins also added four blocks with Saintsing and Leonard having four aces, apiece. Over the weekend, DCCC participated in a tri-match at Brinkley Gym defeating John-

ston Community College and former Region X nemesis Catawba Valley. The Storm (6-3, 2-0) opened by easily defeating the Jaguars 25-9, 25-16, 25-18, setting up a showdown with the Buccaneers in the nightcap. Catawba Valley had snatched the Region X title away from the Storm just last season. Now a Division II school, the Buccaneers pushed the Storm hard in a five set match, but Davidson came up with the goods when it needed to. DCCC raced out to a 4-1 lead and never looked back in the fifth and final set to win 15-8. The Storm won their other two games 25-12 and 25-23.

CHAPEL HILL — Two days after squeaking past Connecticut, North Carolina quarterback T.J. Yates summed up Monday what he saw when looking back at film of the 1210 victory. “It was ugly,” Yates said. But while Yates admitted UNC’s offense — including himself — was anemic for three quarters Saturday, it was the junior’s composure and leadership down the stretch that helped the Tar Heels improve to 2-0 to start the season. “I don’t think there’s any way we win the game without T.J.’s maturity at quarterback,” UNC coach Butch Davis said. “I told him after the game, I don’t even know who said it, but sometimes when all the stuff around you is falling apart, the person in the middle of the storm, you better be able to maintain your composure and maintain sense of what you can do to help rectify that.” Before UNC started its first scoring at the end of the third quarter, it had 109 yards of offense and minus-2 rushing yards. Yates, playing behind an offensive line with two new starters, was sacked six times and completed 12-of-18 passes for 111 yards. “I got a little frustrated going into the third quarter,” said Yates, who finished 23of-32 for 233 yards. “I think everybody was frustrated that we weren’t scoring points or getting much going at all on offense.” But even though Yates was less than pleased with his performance, he remained positive on the sidelines. He said he just tried to forget the bad plays and focus on improving the next play. The results were a couple of big throws that eventually led to points. On the first play of the Tar Heels’ first scoring drive at the end of the third, Yates threw an incomplete pass but then completed his next five passes for gains of 13, 12, 26, 9 and 7 yards. The 78-yard drive orchestrated by Yates eventually ended in a field goal for UNC’s first points of the day. Davis said that having Yates, a third-year starter, at the helm at the end of a close game was an invaluable edge. “There’s a lot of guys in that situation,” Davis said, “that would’ve felt like two things: One, I’ve either got to try to win it all by myself and just start throwing interception after interception after interception and then you just get blown out, or just get so frustrated that you lose your faith and your composure.”

Denton’s King shines at Hickory KING MOTORSPORTS In only his third start on the historic 3/8 mile oval in Hickory, 14-year old, Clint King claimed his first career win at Hickory Motor Speedway and his third win in his rookie season. King has had somewhat of a roller coaster rookie season in Late Model Trucks after coming off of winning a National Championship in the Pro Challenge Series, but make no mistake about it, King’s talent has still been shining through. Not many rookies in any series or division have had the kind of success that King has had in just his 13th start in the bigger, heavier stock cars he now has three wins. On Saturday night “America’s Most Famous Short Track”, Hickory Motor Speedway was King’s playground as he had a great truck all day and in the end was able to capitalize on it. King backed up his fast practice times with a fifth place qualifying effort, but even that wasn’t as good as King felt he could have been. “I just slipped a little there on my qualifying lap,” said King. “I think we could have qualified on the pole, but I just missed it a little, but I think we’ll be really good in the race.” King’s statement would be prophetic as the young driver quickly moved up to fourth and following a

The double-file restart would prove to be just the thing that King needed as on a lap seven restart he used the outside line to battle with one of the tracks veteran drivers and wrestled the lead away. As King continued to run out front under the green flag, it appeared

that he was going to have it easy to the checkered flag, but a couple of late cautions made the rookie earn his stripes. Looking like a veteran, King fended off challenges from the track champion and other veterans to hang on and get his first career win on the tough little bullring. “Those late restarts could have really cost us, but I feel like I got a good restart both times

and that last one was good enough to put this Warehouse Design truck out in front all the way to the checkered flag,” explained King. “Ricky (Bryant) gave me a great truck and this team worked really hard to get this win and it couldn’t have come at a better place, this track has a lot of history and now we’re a part of it.” Hickory Motor Speedway had been a little bit of a sore spot for King as in two previous starts in Pro Challenge and in two previous starts in the PASS Truck Series this season he hadn’t found the kind of success his team has come to expect. That all changed with this win, which came in a tough race up against 15 of the best Late Model Trucks anywhere and that wasn’t lost on King. “This was a tough field, there was a lot of really good, top notch truck drivers out here tonight; That’s something you look at, who you beat and to get our first Hickory win against a field like this was special.” Now with his third win in the history books, King is set to head home to Caraway Speedway, a track located just down the road from his home and this was the track where he picked up his second career win. King is excited to head back down there and is hoping to keep his momentum alive on Friday night, Sept. 18

You may read or hear reports in newspapers, on television or online about our government. The news media, or different news sources, have reporters who research and follow what our leaders are doing. We celebrate Constitution Week, Sept. 17-23, along with Citizenship Day on Sept. 17. In 1787, 12 states voted in favor of the proposed U.S. Constitution. This document, approved in 1789, is a set of basic laws that organizes our government. This week, The Mini Page looks at the First Amendment and why news coverage about government is so important to citizens.

The First Amendment

What does it mean?

In 1791, the Constitution was amended, or changed, with the Bill of Rights. These first 10 amendments added some important ideas to the laws of the country. The First Amendment reads: “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press, or the right of the people to peaceably assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.�

Buehrle also is just one of six players to hurl both a no-hitter — which he did in 2007 — and a perfect game. The 30-year-old veteran can thank centerfielder DeWayne Wise, who made a leaping, juggling catch to rob a Tampa Bay batter of a home run in the ninth inning.

About 100 years before the Constitution was approved, the first newspaper in America was published in Boston in 1690. It was called Publick Occurrences Both Foreign (in other countries) and Domestick (at home). (OWEVER THE GOVERNOR AND COUNCIL didn’t approve of the three-page newspaper.

Our country’s Founding Fathers included freedom of the press in the Bill of Rights with citizens in mind. They wanted journalists to be parallel, or even with, members of the government. This way, the media could keep an eye on what government was doing and report it to the people.

Magazines and newspapers looked at problems with city governments and with industries such as railroads and food processing. The problems they discovered often led to new laws. For example, laws were passed to make factories safer for workers. Others allowed more people to participate in government. *Journalism is gathering and producing news and other reports for media.

#HOOSE YOUR NEWS

Over the years, newspapers, radio, television, the Internet and other media have become important tools for people to find out what government is up to. Reporters for news agencies are usually assigned a beat, or a regular subject area to follow. For example, *ACK *OURNALIST might be assigned to cover city government. *ACK STARTS by building trust between himself and people in CITY GOVERNMENT (E SPENDS A LOT OF time at city hall.

A beat reporter also learns how to look at records that are available to the public. These might include reports of money that was given to a candidate for office or rulings from the courts.

Today, we have many ways to follow the news. Some families get a newspaper delivered to their home every day or every week. Others may read local newspapers on the Internet. National newspapers, such as USA Today, give an overview of news all across the country. You and your family might watch the local news on television. The major TV networks also have news shows in the morning and evening.

TIMES STAFF REPORT GREENSBORO — At a luncheon and ceremony at NewBridge Bank Park, spirits soared as NewBridge Bank awarded $85,600 to area high schools participating in last month’s NewBridge Bank Invitational Football and Cheerleading Jamboree. The money, to be applied to the schools’ athletic programs, represents funds raised from the annual Jamboree, plus a donation from NewBridge Bank. “We are thrilled to extend this gift to enhance the athletic programs of our participating high schools,” said Pressley Ridgill, NewBridge Bank’s President and CEO, to the crowd of school and bank officials, team members and others. “NewBridge Bank stands firmly in its commitment to schools, and we hope that this contribution will boost our already strong athletic programs.” Also at the presentation, Rich Brenner awarded Mrs. Kathleen Fitch Davis of Morehead High School with the second annual Rich Brenner Life Leader Award. The award was created last year by the American Heart Association and NewBridge Bank to honor one faculty member from a participating school who

Overall, the funds raised from the Jamboree represent a 24 percent in-

crease over 2008.” The NewBridge Bank Invitational Football and Cheerleading Jamboree included a premier cheer competition at NewBridge Bank Park and football scrimmages at two locations: Eastern Triad scrimmages at Rockingham County High School and Western Triad scrimmages at West Davidson High School. Participating in the competition were an estimated 2,080 football players and 380 cheerleaders. With today’s contribution, NewBridge Bank has given over $ 350,000 to Piedmont Triad high

schools over the last 11 years. Most of this money comes from sponsorships given by members of the community. “The Jamboree was a true collaboration of many: student athletes, parents, educators, sponsors, volunteers, NewBridge Bank staff, fans and more,” Ridgill said. “Their team spirit and commitment helped make the NewBridge Bank Jamboree a huge success.” For more information, call Jillian Gibson at 336369-0916, or visit www. newbridgebankjamboree.com

Yates said his play at the end of the game was a sign of his maturity and that in the past, he hadn’t played as well in such tight situations. In last season’s bowl game against West Virginia, Yates was picked off with under two minutes to play to seal the Mountaineers’ victory. “He felt like he wasn’t doing as well, but there was a lot of pressure on him,” UNC safety Deunta Williams said. “I think the offensive line stepped up again, and T.J. made throws — I think he was 100 percent [efficient] in the fourth quarter. That speaks to him and his character about coming back.” Notes: The kickoff time for the Sept. 26 game against Georgia Tech in Atlanta has been set for noon. … Davis said Pianalto’s X-rays came back negative for a break, but his status for the rest of the season is unknown.

Wheatmore @ East Davidson East Davidson’s football team hopes to make it two victories in a row as they will host the Wheatmore Warriors. The Golden Eagles (2-2) are coming off a big road win against Southwestern Randolph, in which their defense played extremely well. Most notably their defensive linemen, Allen Godbolt, Nick Gibson, Jordan Hussey and Bryce Hedrick, dominated by controlling the line of scrimmage for the Eagles. Hussey and Hedrick both recovered fumbles, one leading to East’s first touchdown and the other sealing the game in the final minutes of the fourth quarter. The Warriors (0-4) have struggled in their opening games, only putting up 12 points on the scoreboard and their defense has allowed a whopping 183 points. The young squad is in their debut season and still has some improvements to make before a tough conference schedule awaits them.

Two UNC offensive starters sidelined with injuries BY BRIANA GORMAN Durham Hearld-Sun

Dyer, a fifth-year senior center, strained a muscle in his right shoulder during practice last week, and Zack Pianalto dislocated the subtalar joint in his right foot while celebrating a touchdown in Saturday’s win over Connecticut. Both players will be reevaluated and their status updated after the three- to four-week period. The Tar Heels have been without starting wide receiver Dwight Jones in the first two games because of an injury and were missing two players against UConn because of swine flu. “It’s been a little bit of a challenge, to say the least, over the last couple of weeks,” UNC coach

Butch Davis said. Dyer didn’t make the trip to Connecticut, and sophomore Cam Holland started in his place. Holland is slated to start against East Carolina on Saturday (noon, ESPN2) and said he’s feeling more comfortable with the line this week. A week ago, Holland had just one day of practice with the starting unit before the UConn game, but this week he will be able to prepare with four solid practices. “I’m feeling pretty good about this week’s game,” Holland said. “Last week was my first collegiate start, so now that I have a game under my belt, I have a lot more confidence.” Davis said starting right guard Alan Pelc and left guard Jonathan Cooper will be the backups at center. Pelc played one series at center against the Huskies when Holland lost his shoe, and Davis said Cooper has played center in the past. Cooper is back at practice this week after an ankle injury prevented him from playing in the

UConn game. “Between those three guys, we feel like it gives us a little bit of flexibility, the only downside to that is you don’t like to shuffle and juggle the lineup even throughout the course of practice,” Davis said. Pianalto will be a big target to replace as he had been emerging as quarterback T.J. Yates’ favorite receiver. The junior had a career-high seven receptions and 87 yards before getting injured against UConn. Junior Ed Barham is listed as Pianalto’s backup on the depth chart, and he played in nine games in 2008 without a reception. Davis said Barham has worked hard in the offseason to improve and is a “very strong” player.

NOTE — UNC will open the 2010 season against LSU in the Chick-Fil-A Kickoff Game at the Georgia Dome in Atlanta. The game will be on Sept. 4 and will be televised by ESPN. The most recent contest between the two schools was in 1986.

Quarterback call a surprise for Renfree BY BRYAN STRICKLAND Durham Herald-Sun

DURHAM — Less than two months before national signing day for his high school class, Sean Renfree hadn’t even had a passing thought about the possibility of playing quarterback at Duke. About an hour after David Cutcliffe became the Blue Devils’ head coach, Renfree couldn’t stop thinking about the possibility. “The first time I talked to him on the phone, I was like, ‘Wow; I didn’t ever think I would consider Duke, but I almost want to go to Duke like right now,’ “ Renfree said. “He’s just such a convincing guy, and he’s so confident that it just made me confident.” Literally moments after being named Duke’s coach in December 2007, Cutcliffe offered a scholarship to the highly touted quarterback out of Notre Dame Prep in Scottsdale, Ariz. Less than a month later — about a week after Cutcliffe relocated to Durham following his bowl duties as offensive coordinator at Tennessee — Renfree visited Duke. A couple of weeks after that and just a week before signing day, Renfree committed to Duke over Boise State, Arizona State and Nebraska. On Saturday, Duke fans got their first chance to see why Cutcliffe made Renfree such an immediate priority. Taking over for three-year starter Thad Lewis midway through the third quarter, Renfree helped Duke bouuce back from a 10-7 deficit in his college debut for a 35-19 victory at Army. Renfree again will back up Lewis when the Blue Devils visit No. 22 Kansas on Saturday (noon, Versus). But unlike Duke’s first two games, there’s no doubt that Renfree will get some snaps against the Jayhawks. “You can see now why I had been saying all long that regardless of [Lew-

is’] play, I wanted Sean Renfree to immediately play,” Cutcliffe said. “I liked his poise. I thought he was very smooth.” Renfree, the No. 10ranked quarterback in his recruiting class according to Scout.com, never intended to make such a late decision on his destination. Renfree committed to Georgia Tech in July 2007, but when the Yellow Jackets parted ways with Coach Chan Gailey after the season and hired run-first Coach Paul Johnson, Renfree reopened his recruiting. Renfree had met Cutcliffe at Tennessee’s football camp, but the Volunteers never offered him a scholarship. “When he called me, it kind of came as a surprise,” Renfree said. “I hadn’t heard from him in a while. I had a really good list of schools to choose from, and I liked all of those coaches, but I found Duke to be the best place for me. “The opportunity to play and the education — it had all the things I was looking for.” And Renfree, who threw for 25 touchdowns against just five interceptions as a high school senior, appears to have what Cutcliffe and the Blue Devils are looking for. “Obviously, he’s going to play a lot this year — that’s what Coach told me he intended to do early on,” Lewis said. “That’s my teammate, so I wanted to see him shine. “I want to see that out of Sean, just to let Blue Devil nation know that once I’m done here, the Blue Devils still have a bright future with Sean Renfree.” Renfree is approaching things as if the future is now. He said that thanks to his redshirt year, he knows the playbook “inside out,” and now it’s just a matter of getting game experience and consistently performing when it counts. “I’m ready for any situation that Coach wants to put me in,” Renfree said. “I don’t decide the situa-

tion. All I can do is prepare and do all that I can do to be ready for when I do go. “You can’t really look at yourself as the guy of the future; you’ve got to play day by day, week by week. If you start screwing up every day, you’re not going to be that guy. You’ve got to keep getting better every day. “I’m not looking at next year; I’m looking at this year, because we’ve got to win this year.”

FROM PAGE 1 TOURISM From page 1 enues.” Scott has no plans to leave Thomasville Tourism’s downtown office at the old depot. Therefore, investment in a location along I-85 must be minimal. “We’re back to, maybe, Square 2, of looking at partnerships – anywhere that it can make sense, whether it be partnering in a restaurant or a retail store,” Scott said. “As a nonprofit, we don’t have the money to pay anybody a lot of money – or maybe any money. – to be on their property. But it might benefit that busi-

ness by having us there in their parking lot, because we would bring visitors there. Hopefully, it would be a win-win situation.” Changing times, according to Scott, make his department’s need for an interstate presence even more critical. “In the past, visitors would pull off Interstate 85 and drive any number of miles to get furniture information, but now that the number of people seeking furniture information has dwindled, we need to be at the interstate just to get the normal traveler off 85,” he said. “We can still get hundreds of people a day if they know they can get visitor’s infor-

FORUM From page 1 different initiatives that the current council has taken to revitalize downtown Thomasville, including the construction of a new amphitheater, the development of the farmers’ market and research into special tax districts for downtown areas. The other candidates offered their own ideas about how to bring life into the city, including an idea by Harrison to diversify the types of businesses sought by the city and a suggestion by Shatley to develop critical exits along I-85. They agreed on the need to attract and support small businesses. “Major companies will come and go as they will, but small businesses are the heart of our neighborhoods,” Jackson said. “If we focus on that type of development initially, I think we will begin to see additional activity downtown.” When asked about the state of the city of Trinity, Russell said that he would strongly support development and felt that current re-

SERVICE From page 1 donates in excess of 300 hours a year to the organization. When Bobbie first started volunteering her time, she wanted to learn as much as she could. Van would tag along on his days off and developed a niche of his own as the “king of the peanut butter crackers.” Two years ago, Bobbie, a regular donor, needed seven pints of blood as she battled her leg issues. The experience has led the couple to become even more active in educating schools about blood services, recruiting new donors and encouraging donors to give as much as possible. “They have a personal commitment to collecting blood,” Robert Ziegler, executive director of the Thomasville-High Point Chapter of the Red Cross, said. “It has been a lifelong mission of theirs. They are an example for the rest of the Red Cross. We love having them around and the people we help love being around them. They are an example of what a volunteer can be.” When Ziegler was told the Clodfelters aren’t finished being volunteers quite yet, he responded “I don’t doubt that at all. That’s the kind of people

They may not spend time visiting with us on this trip, but hopefully the brochures we give them would encourage planning to see more of Thomasville on a future trip.” The tourism director said he would be happy to partner with a business located near either Exit 102 (Randolph Street) or Exit 103 (Lake Drive). “You never know what triggers somebody’s interest, but if we can get in front of [the interstate travelers] with this information, we know we can get a higher percentage of people to spend money in Thomasville,” Scott

strictions and fees were much too great. Realtors in attendance then expressed concern about the reputation of Thomasville City Schools, because the local school system is a main selling point for most residential homes. When asked what they would do to improve the city schools, the candidates came to the defense of TCS. “Last year, U.S. News and World report named Thomasville High Schools as one of top 100 schools in country,” Styers said. “We have a tremendous school system, we’ve just failed to let you guys know about it.” Most of the candidates said that they supported the school supplement tax, but Shatley said that he thinks it is unfairly levied because it leaves out renters. He proposed a fee that would affect all families of children going to the city schools, not just property owners who are already paying property taxes. Candidates also discussed how to handle vacant or blighted properties. Russell suggested giving incentives to property owners to clear such properties, and Jackson shared an idea that would tax peo-

said. “As long as we generate money for the merchants of the city, we’re happy.” While Scott is not happy that there will be no welcome center in the Thomasville area, he looks forward to the welcome-center plans being carried out in Randolph County. “We’re still supportive of the welcome centers that are suppose to open along that I-73-74 corridor along 220,” he said. “Those 311 bypasses can get those travelers to Thomasville pretty quickly, on their way to Winston-Salem or somewhere else. We’ll be giving them information on Thomasville.”

ple on a property’s negative value to a city as well as its positive value. Shatley said he was strongly in favor of stricter code enforcement, but Styers replied that it would not be easy in the current economy. “The city does a relatively good job of supporting minimum housing and nuisance policies,” Styers said. “We don’t have the people to do stricter code enforcement. [Our enforcement] is too reactive, but if we make it proactive, we have to add staff and that adds costs.” A second candidate forum will be held at Piedmont Crossing, located at 100 Hedrick Drive, from 10:15 a.m. to 12 p.m. Thursday. Candidates will answer questions about street improvement, crime, unemployment and other topics. Staff Writer Karissa Minn can be reached at 888-3576 or newsdesk@ tvilletimes.com.

Gov. Purdue proclaims September as Emergency Preparedness Month

Grace Realty Company

RALEIGH – Gov. Bev Perdue has proclaimed September as Emergency Preparedness Month to encourage families, businesses and schools to take steps to prepare themselves for all types of emergencies. She urged every citizen to have both an emergency plan and kit, stressing that those who have plans and supplies will fare better during any emergency than those who do not. “Most people know the best time to prepare for emergencies is before they happen, but too few people are actually doing so,” Perdue said. “The easiest, most cost-effective thing people can do to protect their families and businesses is to plan ahead, gather those supplies and discuss their emergency plans.” September is North Carolina’s peak month for hurricane activity. This month marks the fifth anniversary of hurricanes Frances and Ivan, the 10th anniversary of Hurricane Floyd and the 20th anniversary of Hurricane Hugo. Each of these storms caused widespread devastation for large regions of our state. However, Perdue cautioned that it would not take a major hurricane or tornado to cause extensive damage to a home or to disrupt normal business operations. She cited as two examples last month’s severe thunderstorm in Havelock that produced massive flooding in only a few hours and the 2009 H1N1 flu that is sweeping the state and country. In the last five years, North Carolina has experienced more than 200 tornadoes, more than 5,000 severe thunderstorms, 13 tropical storms or hurricanes as well as blizzards, ice storms and heat waves. Portions of the state are once again in early drought stages, and many areas already are seeing an increase in the number of flu cases. “Whether it’s a flu outbreak or natural disaster, emergencies can disrupt the systems we depend on
