Director named at Cooperative Extension

TCS Internet portal to help keep parents informed BY ELIOT DUKE

BY KARISSA MINN

Staff Writer

Students in Thomasville City Schools will have a much harder time hiding assignments from their parents in the not so distant future. Mike Ingram, TCS Technology Director, unveiled a new Internet portal Web site Tuesday night that gives parents the ability to check their children’s grades and virtually anything else students are involved with on a weekly basis. “About a year and a half ago, I had a city councilman come up to me and say they wanted to be able to check their child’s grades online,” Ingram said at TCS’ monthly meeting. “I figured I better do something about that. The introduction of this portal is a long-time coming. This has been a true partnership and a perfect example of what a non-profit, a corporate partner and a school system can do as a team to accomplish a goal.” Scheduled to go online in the spring, the portal will act as a single location where data such as calendar schedules, homework assignments, attendance, grades and digitized text books can be accessed through a simple sign-in. Students, teachers and staff members also will be able to communicate through video, voice or instant messaging. Ingram said the portal will be accessible from anywhere

The Davidson County Board of Commissioners approved a new cooperative extension director at its meeting Tuesday. Troy Coggins has been working with the cooperative extension in Davidson County for about 18 years. He was nominated by James Cowden, district director with the North Carolina Cooperative Extension Service. “He’s been doing field crop work, pesticide education and lots of other things related to agriculture here in this county,” Cowden said. “He will fill administrative duties as the county extension director and do community development work.” Also at its Tuesday meeting, the board set several public hearings for economic incentive packages on Dec. 8, 2009. Steve Googe, director of the Davidson County Economic Development Commission, first requested hearings to amend a few existing contracts, including those with Unilin and Arneg. “We’ve been working for a number of months developing additional guidelines for our incentive packages,” Googe said. The Davidson County EDC recommends inserting an addendum in each incentive contract that would waive the job and wage requirements if the county unemployment rate has been in the dou-

‘Extreme’ surprise Lexington family wins home makeover from hit TV series BY KARISSA MINN Staff Writer A Lexington teacher battling stage four cancer and her family heard a greeting Wednesday that they will never forget. “Good morning, Creasey family!” yelled Ty Pennington of ABC’s “Extreme Makeover: Home Edition,” as he and his team of designers knocked on

the door of Tricia Creasey, a seventh-grade science and social studies teacher at Brown Middle School in Thomasville. William, 40, Tricia, 37, Brittany, 12, Makenzie, 5, and Makayla, 5, were then told that in one week, they would be receiving a new home with the help of Hedrick Creative Building in Lexington and local volunteers. “I feel like I’m in dream; that

Evelyn Harris talks with guests after speaking at Thomasville Medical Center’s Veterans Day event Wednesday.

Mustering the strength to stand on her own, Evelyn Harris got up out of her wheelchair with the help of her husband, Sam, and stood in front of a crowded lobby at Thomasville Medical Center Wednesday morning to tell a story of sacrifice. Last October, Evelyn’s son Josh paid the ultimate sacrifice for his country when he lost his life fighting in Afghanistan. As part of Wednesday’s Veteran’s Day

remembrance ceremony, Evelyn, nursing a surgically-repaired knee, was asked to speak on behalf of family members who have lost loved ones serving in the United States military. “All gave some and some gave all,” Evelyn Harris said to the audience. “That was our son Josh. Josh wouldn’t have wanted to be known as a hero. He would’ve wanted to be known as the unknown hero. In many ways he got his wish. But when he went away, his anonymity went with him.” Josh is now resting at Arlington National Cemetery. The former

FROM PAGE 1 From page 1 watched the show on TV for years, and to see it come to his door was like a fairy tale. Their youngest children had a slightly different reaction. “It actually scared the twins, and they went the opposite direction,” William said with a laugh. “I had to run and get them.” On Wednesday, the Creasey family was whisked away for a week’s vacation at Walt Disney World. Tricia said that they have been there before, “but not the way we’re going today.” Tricia was diagnosed with stage three colon/ rectal cancer four years ago. Since then, she has undergone several chemotherapy treatments, some radiation treatments and three surgeries. In May of 2009, Tricia’s cancer returned and spread to her lymph nodes, entering stage four. To prevent the cancer from spreading any further, Tricia receives weekly chemotherapy treatments that cost the family $1,400 a month after insurance. “She does these chemo treatments, and one day later after coming off of the pump, she goes back to work,” William said. The Creaseys moved into their home, which was built in the 1930s, 12 years ago. Now, it is plagued with structural problems such as holes in the floor, walls and roof; cracks in the foundation; lack of insulation; and extensive water damage from a leaking roof. “When we bought this house, it was a starter home, and our plans were to fix it up and to resell it,” Tricia said. “Then, I was diagnosed with cancer, and it just all got to be too much with the medical bills. William sometimes has to be both mom and dad when I’m not feeling well, and he doesn’t necessarily have time to do the things that need to be done to the home.” The Creaseys’ 1,180square-foot house has no hallways and one bathroom. When Tricia is on her chemotherapy, she has to bring it home for 46 hours every two weeks, and it’s hard for her to get the rest she needs during that time. “Everybody has to go

through the master bedroom to get to our bathroom,” Tricia said. “It’s going to be great to be able to close the door when I need to rest, and having three girls and a mom in the same house, one bathroom is just not enough.” Jason Hedrick, owner of Hedrick Creative Building, estimated that between 1,200 and 1,500 people will be working to build a new 3,100-squarefoot home in the next week. It will have four bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms, and it will be built to optimize energy efficiency, resource efficiency and air quality. The cleaner air will help protect Tricia’s immune system. “They’ll be in a nice, comfortable home that’s going to be healthy for them,” Hedrick said. Chris Gallimore, a high school friend of William, and his wife Denise nominated the Creaseys for an extreme home makeover. Tricia and William said they could not say enough to thank the Gallimores, Hedrick Creative Building or the local community. “To the volunteers who are volunteering their time, taking off of their regular jobs to come out here and do this for a family that they possibly don’t know – we can’t say ‘thank you’ enough,” William said. “If I can find something to do to help each and every one of them, I’ll do it.” For more information about the build, visit w w w. h e d r i cke x t re m e. com.

HARRIS From page 1 tainly helped get us through our grief and sorrow more than anything. The greatest profession in the world is not being some movie star or rock star or some sports hero. The greatest profession in the entire world is being a member of the United States military.” Army 1st Sgt. David Mike Floyd followed Evelyn, bringing a more recent series of events involving sacrifice closer to home. The Davidson County native enlisted in the army in 1976 and was stationed in Fort Hood, Texas, the site of last week’s shooting that left 13 military personnel dead. Floyd joined the North Carolina National Guard in 1986 and was twice deployed to Iraq. Floyd spoke of the numerous difficulties coalition troops and Iraqi citi-

zens face while trying to rebuild a democratic nation. Eventhough Iraqis want to help restore peace and are thankful for the troops efforts, Floyd said most are threatened with death if they are found aiding or supporting the coalition. “My first duty session was at Fort Hood and my heart goes out to those we’ve lost and to those who were injured,” Floyd said. “I had a unique opportunity to work with a lot of local Iraqis. I learned that anywhere in the world that local citizens are no different than us. We’re not that much different and they’re all hardworking people. All they want to do is work a job, support their family and be safe. We have helped out that situation a lot. The Iraqi people, most of the time, are not allowed to say what they want to say.

ity that someone would come to their house and kill them.” There was one surprise to the proceedings. Lt. Col. Mack Grimes, son of Thomasville City Councilman Neal Grimes, made a special appearance while home on leave from his first deployment to Iraq. Grimes’ family didn’t know he would be home for a 12-day leave. He is expected to return to Iraq next week for his second deployment. “Thomasville is very patriotic city,” Neal

Grimes said. “We have a lot of reverence for our veterans and the role they play in everybody’s lives. It’s just a tribute to our community and our love for our nation and for all of the people who have given us the freedoms we enjoy today.” Wednesday marked the seventh year TMC has honored Veteran’s Day with a remembrance ceremony.

Embry graduates ROTC course TIMES STAFF REPORT

Brian T. Embry has graduated from the Army ROTC (Reserve Officer Training Corps) Leader Development and Assessment Course, also known as “Operation Warrior Forge,” at Fort Lewis, Tacoma, Wash. The 32 days of training provide the best possible professional training and evaluation for all cadets in the aspects of military life, administration and logistical support. Although continued military training and leadership development is included in the curriculum, the primary focus of the course is to develop and evaluate each cadet’s officer potential as a leader by exercising the cadet’s intelligence, common sense, ingenuity and physical stamina. The cadet command assesses each cadet’s performance and progress in officer traits, qualities and professionalism while at-

tending the course. Cadets in their junior and senior year of college must complete the leadership development course. Upon successful completion of the course, the ROTC program, and

graduation from college, cadets are commissioned as second lieutenants in the U.S. Army, National Guard, or Reserve. He is the son of Linda S. Embry of Timber Creek Lane in Thomasville.

Testing next year’s lies today VIEWPOINT

JOE CONASON Syndicated Columnist Within hours after the House of Representatives approved health care reform by a narrow margin, Republicans predicted retribution at the polls next fall. They promised to make every Democrat regret that historic vote as the first step toward the reversal of power in Washington. And as the current debate has proved, they aren’t going to let honesty become an obstacle. For a preview of coming attractions, simply turn on the Fox News Channel or any right-wing radio talker, where the falsehoods of the 2010 midterm campaign are being field-tested today. You can watch Dick Morris blather about the “death panels” that will terminate your mother and father while illegal immigrants are provided lavish care, and about how you will be put in jail for failing to purchase health insurance. You can hear Karl Rove complain that we will “beggar ourselves” by adding more than $1.4 trillion to the federal debt. You can listen to Frank Luntz claim that voters disdain reform because of “the cost to the deficit.” These gentlemen have little expertise in health or economics, but much experience in distracting, misinforming and sometimes frightening the public. Aside from talking on television, that is their job. How little do they know -- and how much do they simply fabricate? It is safe to assume that Morris knows very well there are no death panels in any of the health reform bills; that those bills expressly forbid coverage of illegal immigrants; and that none of them includes any provision to incarcerate citizens who lack insurance coverage. It is also reasonable to assume, based solely on the fiscal record of the Bush administration in which he served, that Rove never worries about budget deficits, government waste or gross corruption unless Democrats are in charge. As for Luntz, he specializes in political prophecies that are self-fulfilling. When he says voters are infuriated by the cost of health care reform, for instance, that merely indicates he is trying to make them feel that

way. He will succeed -- all three will succeed -- only by drawing attention away from actual facts and figures. So perhaps voters ought to listen instead to the Congressional Budget Office, which by contrast has earned a reputation for candor, accuracy and nonpartisan truthfulness. After painstaking analysis, the CBO estimated that the House health care reform bill, known as the Affordable Health Care for America Act, would reduce the federal deficit by about $109 billion during the first 10 years after it takes effect. To repeat: The bill passed by the House Democrats on the evening of Saturday, Nov. 7, “would yield a net reduction in federal budget deficits of $109 billion over the 2010-2019 period.” The CBO experts also costed out the Senate Finance Committee bill and found that it would cut federal deficits by more than $80 billion during that first decade. Those reassuring conclusions derive from other basic facts about reform that tend to be ignored or concealed. Reform will reduce wasteful spending by hundreds of billions of dollars annually and will depend for financing on excise taxes imposed on the wealthiest 1 percent of the population. Much of the misinformation about the costs of reform comes from the belief -- fostered by conservatives -- that the government-run health plan known as the “public option” would impose a huge burden on the federal budget. So says Joseph Lieberman, the independent senator from Connecticut who has threatened to filibuster the bill. Section 322 of the Affordable Health Care for America Act says clearly and concisely that people insured under the public option will pay premium rates “at a level sufficient to fully finance the costs of health benefits provided by the public health insurance option; and administrative costs related to operating the public health insurance option.” In short, the public option will involve no new federal expenditure. Any bill that reaches the president’s desk will leave much to be desired, especially with respect to cost containment, preventive care and new systems of compensation to encourage improved results. But it should be judged according to real merits and defects -- not the delusions and distortions that now dominate the debate.

Muslims and mass murder VIEWPOINT

STEVE CHAPMAN Syndicated Columnist Mass murders are usually a mystery. When Maj. Nidal Hasan allegedly committed one last week at Fort Hood, though, there was no time wasted in solving the mystery by blaming the massacre on his religion, which is Islam. Maybe Hasan is just a homicidal lunatic set to work by fevered demons inside his brain. But post-9/11, you can’t be a killer who happens to be a Muslim. If you’re a killer, it has to be because you’re a Muslim. In this case, the claim of a religious motive has some evidentiary basis. Hasan had contacts with an extremist imam. The Army psychiatrist had been known to rail against the U.S. wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and to argue that Muslims should be allowed to leave the military rather than fight against other Muslims. He reportedly shouted, “Allahu Akbar!” — Arabic for “God is great!” — as he began his rampage. In spite of his views and e-mail buddies, neither the Army nor the FBI (which monitored his correspondence with the cleric) found enough grounds to take action against him. Maybe they were blinded by “political correctness” not to do anything that might offend Muslims. Or maybe his past comments are being exaggerated with the benefit of hindsight. Or maybe those who noticed simply concluded he posed no more danger than other cranks.

It’s also possible, as so many insist, that the slaughter was a direct product of a violent brand of Islam that encouraged and sanctioned his deed. But even if that’s the case, it doesn’t tell us what to do about it. Is the Pentagon supposed to refuse induction to Muslims? Do extensive vetting before accepting them? Continuously monitor their Internet use? Generally treat them as suspect, which almost none of them is? Blustering about “political correctness” doesn’t offer practical solutions to a malady that is about as common as a two-headed cow. The Defense Department says there are 3,572 Muslims in the American military. The American Muslim Armed Forces and Veterans Affairs Council puts the number at more than 15,000. Either way, the overwhelming majority must be loyal and true, or the Fort Hood massacre would not be unusual. Obviously, a soldier who expresses a radical antiAmerican ideology demands intervention. But if all military authorities have to worry about is getting rid of every service member who applauds suicide attacks, they will not have much to do. No one thinks “political correctness” obligates the Army to treat Muslims more leniently than anyone else. But it’s just as simple-minded to think they deserve to be treated worse. Hasan’s views are way outside the mainstream of American Muslims. A 2007 poll by the Pew Research Center found that very few of them hold radical beliefs. Eight percent think suicide bombings can sometimes be justified, which means 92 percent do not. Only 5 percent said they had a favorable opinion of al-Qaida. Does that sound like a lot? Keep in mind that 13 percent of Americans have a favorable view of North Korea. That’s right: North Korea.

Some commentators insist that Islam is inherently aggressive, intolerant or bent on taking over the world by force. But contemporary terrorism, which is supposed to prove that, doesn’t. As University of Chicago scholar Robert Pape has documented in his research on suicide attackers, most are motivated mainly by non-religious concerns. Of 41 people who carried out suicide attacks in Lebanon between 1982 and 1986, he noted in his 2005 book “Dying to Win: The Strategic Logic of Suicide Terrorism,” 30 were affiliated with groups (SET ITAL) opposed (END ITAL) to Islamic fundamentalism, including secular communist, socialist and Baath organizations. Three of the attackers were Christians. What the perpetrators shared was not a religion but an intense resentment of an occupation by foreign powers (the United States, France and Israel). This motive, Pape says, is characteristic of suicide attackers wherever they emerge, including Iraq and Afghanistan. The terrorists’ quarrel with the U.S. is not that it is an infidel society but that it’s seen as occupying Muslim countries. Osama bin Laden has made the point himself. Dismissing President Bush’s assertion that “we hate freedom,” he once said, “Let him tell us why we did not strike Sweden.” The al-Qaida leader likes nothing better than to portray the United States as waging a crusade against Muslims. We would be doing ourselves no favor to confirm the accusation. Steve Chapman blogs daily at newsblogs.chicagotribune. com/steve_chapman.

FROM PAGE 1 DIRECTOR From page 1 ble digits in the past six reporting periods from the grant requests. The first public hearing about a new incentive package was requested for Johnson Concrete Company. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They are looking to consolidate operations in North Carolina,â&#x20AC;? Googe said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They are considering plans to expand their manufacturing operation here.â&#x20AC;? He said the project would retain seven jobs and create an additional 10 jobs at a wage above the current county average wage for the next five years. The EDC recommends an economic de-

velopment grant of .0054 times the investment in plant machinery each year for two years. Googe said that Sauers and Company Processed Veneers plans to expand its manufacturing operation, and Davidson County is one of the companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s final choices. Sauers and Company would invest approximately $300,000, and it would provide at least 10 jobs at a wage about current county average wage over the first three years of the project. The EDC recommends economic development grants of .0027 times the investment in the plant facility each year for five years and .0054 times the investment in machinery and equipment for one year.

PORTAL From page 1 in the world at any time on the Web. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The ultimate goal of this is to make technology work for our students and teachers,â&#x20AC;? said Ingram. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What we want to do is provide the student and teacher with an environment to learn and grow by removing the impediments of technology. There are times when technology can impede if you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t understand what youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re doing.â&#x20AC;? Ingram said parents can see anything a student sees inside the studentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s integrative solution, except e-mails due to privacy issues. Parents and guardians can request a log-in to the portal site by printing off a document from the page and bringing it to the school for verification. The portal will not only enable students to communicate easier, teachers also will benefit by being able to collaborate amongst each other in a more efficient manner. Teachers also will be able to limit Internet access for students. The portal site can be accessed through the TCS Web site. â&#x20AC;&#x153;At the beginning of this year, two of the biggest goals our district had was, number one, having an active board in 100 percent of our classrooms,â&#x20AC;? Ingram said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve accomplished that goal. Number two was to roll out a portal that will allow the ability to integrate all of this.â&#x20AC;? Money for the portal came from three different sources. CSI Technology Outfitters contributed $105,000 worth of resources, Microsoft paid for $30,000 worth of software and the Tom A. Finch Foundation, in conjunction with TCS Foundation, chipped in $35,000. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This has been a strong partner-

The final hearing requested was for Diamondback Products. Googe said that Davidson County is one of the companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s final choices for expansion. It would invest approximately $500,000, and it would provide at least 30 jobs at a wage of at least 110 percent of the county average wage over the first three years of the project.

ship that is paying dividends,â&#x20AC;? said Ingram. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In the course of time it will pay more.â&#x20AC;? Board member Jerry Crowder asked Ingram whether or not families without Internet access will be left behind once the portal goes online. Ingram said it is a problem, but efforts are being made to increase access to underserved areas, especially as TCS moves forward with its one-to-one laptop initiative. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This has taken us to a new level,â&#x20AC;? Superintendent Keith Tobin said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We talk about technology and how blessed we are and we are. The communication with the parents and the community is so important. This will make a difference and we look forward to getting this up and going.â&#x20AC;? In other news: â&#x20AC;˘ TCS named Thomasville Middle Schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Georgia Marshall principalof-the-year for the second straight year. Marshall took over as principal at TMS three years ago and saw her school meet both Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) and expected growth this year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a wonderful honor,â&#x20AC;? said Marshall. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m just ecstatic about it. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wonderful to be recognized for hard work. I would like for us to go over and beyond what weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve already done and come and be successful all over again with growth and AYP.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;˘ TCS named its VITAL award winners for the month.

Panthers prepare for Carson BY ZACH KEPLEY Sports Editor

Speedy Cavs to visit THS in ﬁrst round BY ZACH KEPLEY Sports Editor No stranger to the state football playoffs, the Thomasville Bulldogs will open the first round at home against East Rutherford. Only this year, they are competing a step up in the 2-A bracket. The defending 1-AA champions have now learned the path it will need to take in order to make the championship game at a higher level. Phase I of the journey begins in its backyard at Cushwa Stadium, as the Bulldogs (7-4) will host the Brown 4-7 Cavaliers. But do not be fooled by the losing record. East Rutherford pushed 10-1 Shelby to the limit two weeks ago, holding a 14-3 lead until Shelby came back to win in overtime. The Cavs also have wins over 4-A McDowell and 3-A West Rowan, so they will not be a typical first round team THS has seen in the past. “They are blessed with a lot of team quickness, and they are a hard matchup for us,” said Thomasville head coach, Allen Brown. Offensively, the Cavaliers show an I-formation most of the time, but do transition to a shotgun set for a different look. Quarterback Mikhail Baxter has been inconsistent throughout the year, but has passed for over 1,000 yards. The main attraction of the East offense, though, lies in the backfield behind Baxter. Tailbacks Adrian Wilkins and Tyler Hamilton are big speedsters, but have trouble securing the pigskin at times. Wilkins has scored 12 total touchdowns on the season rushing, receiving and on kick returns. Thomasville can relate to the turnover problems of the Cavaliers. Just last week against the Lexington Yellow Jackets, the Bulldogs turned the ball over five times — a number that will need to decrease significantly if the Bulldogs hope to make the big game.

Earlier in the season, while the Panthers (6-5) were having their bye week, head coach Chuck Henderson went out to scout the West Davidson game. Little did he know the opponent the Green Dragons were playing that night would be his to open the playoffs. Ledford welcomes Jesse Carson (6-5, North Piedmont) to its home field for a 7:30 p.m. kickoff. The Panthers are coming off a brutal 53-0 drubbing at the hands of Northeast Guilford, but have a good idea what the Cougars will bring to the table. “We know they have a good tailback and a goto wideout,” Henderson said. “They have big offensive and defensive lines and are just a solid team.” The running back and wide receiver Henderson was referring to are Shaun Warren and Cody Clanton. Warren has racked up a whopping 1,771 yards on the ground for a 161 yardsper-game average. He has 19 touchdowns to go with it. Clanton is nearing the 1,000-yard mark receiving, with 11 touchdowns.

Tar Heels have work to do after win BY BRIANA GORMAN Durham Herald Sun CHAPEL HILL — The first thing North Carolina coach Roy Williams said in his postgame news conference after Monday’s season-opening 88-72 victory over Florida International was that he was glad to get the win.

But he immediately followed that statement with criticism of his team’s 26 turnovers in the game, which also was the opening-round of the 2K Sports Classic benefitting Coaches vs. Cancer. Even though the No. 6 Tar Heels dominated the much-smaller Golden Eagles from start to fin-

ish, Williams said the victory at the Smith Center wasn’t UNC’s crispest game. FIU, playing its first game under former AllAmerican point guard Isiah Thomas, had just 20 turnovers. ”For the most part, I thought we were active, we were trying hard,”

Williams said. “We just weren’t very sharp, but that’s what you should expect at this time of the year.” Four Tar Heels scored in double digits, and Thompson and Ed Davis recorded double-doubles. Thompson had a gamehigh 20 points with 10 rebounds, while Davis

added 13 points and 11 rebounds. The Tar Heels, who were wearing retro uniforms patterned after those worn in 1957, played to their frontcourt strength with 44 points in the paint. Thompson said it felt good to finally play a

and that’s the challenge we face this week.” Cutcliffe said the Blue Devils showed signs of depression after the loss, which ended a threegame winning streak and put a serious damper on Duke’s postseason hopes. But Tuesday morning,

at Duke’s first full practice since the loss, Cutcliffe saw signs of life. “The momentum did stop for a minute; it just came to a dead silence,” he said. “We kind of have a 24-hour rule that win or lose, you’ve got to put it behind you. But when

DUKE From page 7 we made our way through practice.” The Blue Devils certainly will have to be going at full speed come Saturday when No. 7 Georgia Tech visits Wallace Wade Stadium (noon, ESPN2). If the Yellow Jackets (91, 6-1 ACC) extend their winning streak to eight games, they’ll wrap up the ACC’s Coastal Division and a spot in the ACC title game. If Duke (5-4, 32) bounces back, the Blue Devils will remain in the race along with Georgia Tech, Virginia Tech and Miami. The Blue Devils say they understand the stakes and insist that one loss isn’t going to derail their dreams, which still include a bowl bid with a 2-1 finish. “Nobody likes to lose to Carolina,” linebacker Damian Thornton said. “Obviously, we don’t like

And you know Coach is going to want the best and the most out of all of us, so we can’t have 26 turnovers.” Senior Marcus Ginyard said some of the turnovers could be attributed to the team still trying to mesh together. The Tar Heels (1-0) have five freshmen on the roster this season, and each played at least eight minutes Monday. ”Really we’ve just got to take care of the ball,” said Ginyard, who had 12 points. “We were a little careless and we weren’t very focused out there at times, so that’s definitely something we need to work on and get better at.” While Williams wasn’t pleased with the turnovers, he didn’t have much to complain about defensively. During the preseason, Williams said this year’s team had the potential to be great defensively, and the Tar Heels showed flashes of that Monday. UNC held FIU (0-1) to 36.8 percent shooting from the floor and outrebounded the Golden Eagles 44-29. ”Coach [Williams] was very generous tonight; he kept us guessing,” Thomas said. “But his basket-

We’re looking forward to Georgia Tech.” If anything, according to left tackle Kyle Hill, the loss left the Blue Devils more determined than ever. “It lit a fire in all of us,” Hill said. “A loss like that is real tough to deal with, so you want to get that taste out of your mouth as fast as you can. “The first step is the first practice after the loss. You crank it up, and you try to keep that going the entire week and into the game. Everybody is ready to go.” The Blue Devils, who haven’t been to a bowl since the 1994 season, know what many outsiders are saying: If Duke can’t win at UNC, how are the Devils possibly going to beat either Georgia Tech this week or No. 12 Miami next week to keep their hopes alive?

ball team could’ve played a lot more, and I appreciate him not really hurting us too bad tonight.” Thomas was making his return to the college level for the first time since 1981, when he was the point guard for the Indiana team that beat UNC in the national championship game. He said it was great to be back at the college level and even laughed when the UNC student section began chanting “Magic, Magic” — a reference to the friction between Thomas and former NBA star Magic Johnson — as he walked off the court. Thomas said he was proud of his team and the way they fought throughout the game. The Golden Eagles kept things close in the first half and had cut the lead to 13-12 roughly five minutes into the game. But a Ginyard 3-pointer sparked a 10-2 run to give UNC a 23-14 cushion. The Tar Heels steadily built their lead throughout the rest of the half and a jumper by freshman Dexter Strickland at the buzzer gave them a 46-30 at the break. FIU never got closer than 17 in the second half, until the final two minutes when Williams emptied his bench and the Golden Eagles scored seven straight points. ”The thing I liked about my team tonight is we fought,” Thomas said. “The first thing you got to do in order to win is you’ve got to learn how to fight. ... But we weren’t quite good enough and we weren’t quite big enough, but at least we fought for the win.”

“A lot of people at the beginning of the season said it was over when we lost to Richmond,” Duke quarterback Thad Lewis said. “It’s not over until these last 12 quarters play out, and then the clock strikes zero.” Maybe Cutcliffe doesn’t have as much to worry about as he first feared. “Nothing will snowball unless you let it,” Cutcliffe said. “It’s like anything else: If you want to have a bad day, you’ll have a bad day. “I’m reminding them of what their opportunities are, taking it from a much more positive approach — look at what the carrot is out there, and how hard are we willing to work?” Cutcliffe certainly is willing to put in the work. “I’m going to go work on building the Empire State Building and the Golden Gate Bridge,” he said as Tuesday’s news conference concluded.

Helping Wounded Warriors

Families When a service person is injured, it can be hard for the families too. Sometimes a parent, brother or sister returning home might seem different. They might be hurt, or they might have bad moods. Injured service people may not only be dealing with physical (FIH-zi-kul), or body, injuries, but they also may be having trouble dealing with their feelings. They may have seen terrible things in the war. These things may still be bothering them.

Do you know someone in the military? Has he or she been sent overseas? These brave people work far from home to serve our country. It can be scary to have someone you love, such as a parent, in a war zone. It can also be hard when a service person returns home after an injury. More than 31,000 U.S. troops have been wounded in action in Iraq. About 4,000 have been wounded in Afghanistan. In honor of Veterans Day, Nov. 11, The Mini Page talked with medical people in the military to find out some of the new ways America is helping its wounded troops.

Handling some bad feelings

These kids are keeping in touch with their father, who has been deployed, or sent, to Korea. The Defense Department and Sesame Workshop set up a new Web site to help families keep in touch with their loved ones serving in the military. Through the Sesame Street Family Connections site, family members and service people can send artwork, photos, messages and videos back and forth. This is a free and private Web site to help keep military families connected. Site to see: www.sesamestreet.org/tlc

Supersport: E.J. Henderson Height: 6-1 Weight: 245 Hometown: Aberdeen, Md. E.J. Henderson is back, and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s good news for the Minnesota Vikings. But itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bad news for opposing quarterbacks and running backs who have to spend Sunday afternoons colliding with the hard-hitting middle linebacker. Henderson, sidelined most of last season with an injury, has led his team in tackles THREE OF THE LAST FOUR YEARS )N HE HAD TACKLES AND WAS VOTED MOST VALUABLE player on defense by his teammates. Prior to joining the Vikings six years ago, Henderson was a star at the University of Maryland. In 2002, he won the Butkus Award, given annually to college footballâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top linebacker, and graduated with a degree in criminology and criminal justice. Now he is teaming up with his younger brother, Erin, a special teams player and reserve linebacker for the Vikings. They work together off the field as well, participating in the E.J. Henderson Youth Foundation and its Urban Youth Outreach program. When he has free time, E.J. also enjoys playing basketball and watching movies. But heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s at his best on the football field, leading the Vikingsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; defense once again.

Healing Different Wounds Post-traumatic stress Sometimes, when something bad happens, the feelings from that experience can keep coming back to trouble a person. Strong memories of the bad experience can seem to come out of nowhere. A normal, everyday sound or sight can trigger the scary memories. Experts call this post-traumatic stress disorder, or PTSD. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Postâ&#x20AC;? means â&#x20AC;&#x153;after.â&#x20AC;? A trauma is something disturbing that happens to a person, such as a war, an accident or a natural disaster. (Most service members do not have PTSD.) People with PTSD might have nightmares. If it is bad enough, it can make it hard for people to get along in ordinary life. Normal things like going to the grocery store might trigger bad reactions. It might be hard for them to act normally to people in their lives.

Artificial body parts

Sometimes a service person may need to talk to a counselor to help overcome PTSD or feelings about injuries. This is normal. Even if your parent seems different when he or she returns from a war, remember that your parents still love you. You can help by giving your love and support too. Other people help when they show appreciation for the service personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s brave sacrifice.

Building a prosthesis

Most combat injuries do not cause a service person to lose a limb, such as an arm or leg. But when this does happen, the wounded person is fitted with a prosthesis (pros-THEE-sus). A prosthesis is an artificial body part. Prostheses can be made to replace anything from a whole leg to an ear or finger.

To figure out the right size and shape of the prosthesis, medical experts might start with a plaster model. They might also take a digital image of the remaining part, and make a model of that. For example, if a soldier has lost a leg, doctors will take a digital picture of the other leg and use that as a model. from The Mini Page ÂŠ 2009 Universal Uclick

Science Fiction Becoming Fact

A socket is attached to the body on one end and to the prosthesis on the other end. Then the person can put the artificial part on and take it off. Injured troops may get several different prosthetics for the same injury. This allows them to go back to doing the activities they enjoyed before their injuries. For example, a soldier who enjoys rock climbing might get a special prosthesis to allow him or her to keep climbing. This would be different than the prosthesis he or she needs to walk to work.

Taking a prosthesis off and on

This puppy is helping a Navy corpsman deal with posttraumatic stress disorder after his return from Iraq. Dogs also help people with physical injuries. The Mini Page thanks Col. (Dr.) Charles Engel, director, Deployment Health Clinical Center; and David Beachler, CP, prosthesis technology specialist, Walter Reed Army Medical Center, for help with this issue.

Bionic knee One advance is a bionic power knee. A power knee has a tiny computer and motor that helps a person walk and stand up more normally. The computer is programmed to tell the leg to do what the missing muscles would have done in the past.

terback Zack Gragg, who has tossed for 1,192 yards with 12 touchdowns and five interceptions. “We are approaching this as we did for Asheboro and Southern Guilford,” said Henderson. “We have to contain the running back and limit the big plays in the passing game. Hopefully, we can make them start with a long field, and then we have to have some ball control on offense.”

Ledford looks to quarterback Steven Fuquay to guide the offense. He has plenty of options in the passing game with Jonathan Shelton, Michael Vogler and Dylan Smith at the wideout positions. If the Panthers can get solid contributions from De Greene in the running game, that only increases the chances for Ledford to make the second round.
