Makeover team readies for big day BY ELIOT DUKE Staff Writer
LEXINGTON - With Tricia Creasey set to come home today, Extreme Makeover: Home Edition spent Monday putting the finishing touches on the Emmy award-winning show’s latest endeavor. An assortment of different trucks lined Allred Road as hundreds of spectators looked on. Much of the structural work on the Creasey’s new 3,100square-foot home was finished by Monday afternoon, despite distractions that accompanied the arrival of recording artist and songwriter Jewel and her husband, Ty Murray, a professional bull rider. “I think we’re ahead of schedule,” Jason Hedrick, owner of Hedrick Creative Builders, said. “We’ve had to hold off on some stuff for our guest stars. Today has been a little bit hectic, just trying to get all decisions
made and what the final finish was going to be on everything. We’ve done a lot standing around for awhile, but now all the decisions have been made and we’ve got to get everything fixed up.” Fans of Jewel didn’t see much of the celebrity, but she did make an appearance on the front porch of the house with her husband and Makeover host Ty Pennington. Jewel was seen handing Pennington a nail gun before the trio went back inside. According to Hedrick, construction on the house is complete. By Monday evening, volunteers were carrying plywood into the house with loaded trucks full of furniture, toys and household appliances standing by. “We’re done,” said Hedrick. “We’ve already been passed by the county inspection department, so everything’s good to go.”

When Extreme Makeover: Home Edition selects a family to receive a dream home, they chose someone who gives back to their community despite their own personal challenges in life. Tricia Creasey, teacher and mother of three, is one of those people. Tricia’s parents, Richard and Janice Chapman, and younger sister, Sarah Sherman, describe her as a quiet,
humble, but strong person, who is always busy and involved. From raising her own three daughters, to teaching seventh-grade students at Brown Middle, Tricia is all about helping others. Even after being diagnosed with colon cancer four years ago, Tricia never complained about her own situation. Instead, she joined the efforts of Relay For Life to help raise funds for cancer research. “I’ve always been amazed by her strength, and over the past three years I’ve seen the
battle she has put up, which is so amazing to me,” Sarah said. “I’ve always said that I don’t know if I’d have the strength that she has. “Even when she doesn’t feel good, she’ll still go out to her kid’s soccer games and sits out in the cold. That’s amazing to me. She’s never once felt sorry for herself. She’s always been such a great sister and I’m so happy this happened for her.” According to Janice, Tri-

Hagan plays key role in Coble to seek re-election health care legislation BY KEVIN REID

GREENSBORO — Although it has been just over a year since she was elected to the U.S. Senate, Kay Hagan is playing a key role in the formation of the historic health care legislation, which has become the top domestic issue facing Congress. As a member of the Health, Education, Labor and Pensions (HELP) committee, North
Carolina’s junior senator is closely involved in the exact wording of what the Senate’s answer to the House bill (Affordable Health Care for America Act, which passed on Nov. 7) will be. “I’m on one of the two committees in the Senate that is actually looking at health-care reform,” Hagan said in her state headquarters at Green Valley Office Park. “Our committee passed a bill that says even if you’ve

We want to be sure people have the ability to have affordable and accessible health insurance, and I wanted to be sure that whatever we do doesn’t increase the federal deficit.” Hagan agrees with the majority on the HELP

GREENSBORO - U.S. Rep. Howard Coble is indeed running for re-election next year, although he did entertain some thoughts of doing otherwise. “At one time I was, at least, considering retiring,” said the 78-year-old Congressman, who is seeking his 14th term. “I thought, ‘Well, I’ve been up here (in Washington) a long time and maybe going back home isn’t such a bad idea.’ But I never did anything else beyond that.” During the interview following the Veterans Day celebration at Well Spring retirement center, Coble credited his constituents for his decision to run again.

What’s Inside
“I bounced [the idea of retirement] off some folks throughout my district, and they said, ‘You’re still in good health. Why quit as long as your health is good and you’re accessible?’” Coble recalled. “Accessibility is one of the main keys to being a successful elected official, in my opinion.” This year, Coble is not the only Republican candidate seeking nomination to run for North Carolina’s 6th Congressional District seat. Cathy Hinson, 58, announced earlier this month her intention to file as a Republican candidate for the seat.

Workers and volunteers hustle to put finishing touches on the Creaseys’ dream home before their arrival today.
TEAM From page 1 Creasey and her family return from Disney World today and are expected to arrive home sometime this afternoon. Spirits remained high amongst volunteers, who were anxious for to see the finished project of a community that came together for one of their neighbors in need. “Its been wonderful,� Verna McCulloch, a volunteer from Lexington, said. “I think this has done a lot for our community to pull it together with such hard times going on. While this has
been challenging for the contractors, it has been challenging for the community as well. We have had an abundance of people come out. I think all the volunteers have enjoyed it. They have worked extremely hard. I don’t think you could have asked for anything more from a community.� Spectators continued showing up to the site well into the evening and were standing in line waiting to be shuttled over to the Creaseys as darkness fell. “It has been such a heartwarming experience,“ said volunteer Kay Padon. “To see everyone working together for one reason and that’s for the
love of this family has been just overwhelming. I’ve had cold chills so much I now have permanent cold chills.� Spectators are allowed on site today as the show films the “Move that bus� scene to complete the show. Buses will transit guests from the old Walmart parking lot in Lexington with the donation of one canned food item. Wait times are expected to be long, and visitors are asked to bring snacks and drinks. The show is scheduled to air in February. Staff Writer Eliot Duke can be reached at 888-3578, or duke@tvilletimes.com.

cia also has incorporated her own personal situation as a tool for getting through to her middle school students. “She [Tricia] is a science teacher and she uses her cancer to teach her children,� Janice said. “And I think the children listen because there’s this example standing in front of them. They’re able to relate. I think it’s so brave to be so open about it.� Despite having chemotherapy treatments every other week on Thursday, Tricia is back at work by Monday morning. “She loves those kids at school, she just loves teaching and I think if someone took that away from her, that would hurt her more than anything. That’s what keeps her ticking.� Janice said. “I’ve been reading a lot of comments that have been coming in, a lot of them from students saying how much she’s really impacted their lives. That really touched me because I know she’s making a mark in this world with these children.� Tricia also has passed on her perseverance and selflessness to her own children. Her oldest daughter, Brittany, has taken on a “mom� role of
her own to help out the family. “Brittany is like a little second mom to her sisters,� Sarah said. “She gets her sisters ready for school, helps in any way possible and rarely ever complains. She’s a good kid, and is just as strong as her mother.� Since the experience began, the family has been amazed at the support they’ve received from the TV show, workers, volunteers and the community as a whole. “In the news you’re always hearing about what’s bad and then to see all of this good. It shows
that people do still care,� Richard said. “There are not enough words for what everyone has done.� Janice agreed. “Every time I go out to the site, it’s just overwhelming,� Janice said. “To see all those people that are doing all that hard work for her is just incredible. We just can’t emphasize enough what a wonderful community this is. I can’t say enough about these angels and that’s what they are — angels.�

Heart attack risk rises in middle-aged women
DR. DAVID LIPSCHITZ Syndicated Columnist
In recent years, American women have become increasingly aware that heart disease is not just a “man’s issue.� Before menopause, a woman’s risk of heart attack is lower than a man’s. But post-menopause, the risk slowly increases and both sexes have similar statistics within a decade. And these days we now know that in the last two decades of life, a woman’s risk of heart attack and death from heart disease is greater than a man’s. In a study just published in the Archives of Internal Medicine, researchers followed 8,000 middle-aged men and women from 35 to 54, who participated in a national health survey between 1988 and 1994 and between 1999 and 2005. During the first time period, 2.5 percent of men and 0.7 percent of women reported having a heart attack. But in the later period, the percentage of men having a heart attack decreased to
2.2 percent and the risk in women increased to 1 percent. For the first time ever, heart attacks were showing an alarming increase in premenopausal women. Although in absolute numbers this increase in prevalence seems small, the trend is nevertheless important. During the total time frame, an interesting trend was observed: It appeared as if men were more serious in improving health habits and decreasing risks of heart attack. For example, the total and HDL cholesterol and smoking rates either remained stable in men or improved, whereas risk factors for heart attack appeared to worsen in women. The risk of obesity increased, as did the risk of diabetes for men and women. There was, however, some good news for women. During the second period, women’s survival rate in the hospital after a heart attack increased more substantially than men’s. Women under the age of 55 were three times less likely to die from a heart attack than men of the same age. In the end, women after menopause seem to lose the protective effects of female hormones, and after the age of 60, the risk of heart attacks increases. Without major changes in lifestyle habits and actively seeking to reduce risk of disease, the incidence of heart attacks will continue to increase for older women.
This information must be a wake-up call for every American woman. Despite a massive public education campaign and increased awareness of the dangers of heart disease, women may not be taking this risk seriously. Statistics show that lifestyle factors leading to heart disease deteriorate over time, and the impact of these negative habits appears to have a greater effect on women. In the fight against heart disease, there have been some great strides in the management and treatment of heart disease in women. Most are more aware of the symptoms of a heart attack, seek medical care earlier, and physicians no longer brush off minor symptoms, such as chest pain, palpitations or shortness of breath. For young women, the symptoms of a heart attack can be very atypical and the diagnosis can be difficult, which has led to more compulsive screening for heart attacks in emergency rooms and doctors’ offices. Today, women and men are receiving excellent care for heart attacks that are diagnosed earlier and with more accuracy. This, in turn, is reflected in substantial gains in life expectancy and preventing death.
But while there have clearly been advances in the diagnosis and treatment of heart attacks, we are not doing nearly as well in preventing this life-threatening disease. Without a major commitment to prevention, the increased demand for care as baby boomers age will cripple the medical system. Living a heart-healthy life has to become embedded into the fabric of American society. We must learn to eat healthy, exercise and regularly monitor our health to identify and treat high blood pressure, diabetes and elevated cholesterol. In fact, more and more evidence suggests that the earlier we commit to good health habits, the better. Initial screenings for risk factors for heart disease should commence at age 30 or even younger for those with a strong family history of illness. Neither women nor men should underestimate the severity of heart disease, and we must all do our part to decrease the risk of heart attacks.

Do you recognize your president? VIEWPOINT
SUSAN ESTRICH Syndicated Columnist There’s an old saying that hard cases make bad law. The same rule, unfortunately, applies to presidential decisions. What makes a case hard, of course, is when there is no “good” answer. The challenge for the decision maker is to find the least of the bad, the lesser of the evils. But by definition, a bad answer doesn’t solve things (if it did, it wouldn’t be a bad answer), but merely leaves them less bad than they would be if you made a different choice. There is no glory in such a decision. No matter what you do, you’re wrong. The only hope is to be less wrong, to cause less harm than you would by making an even worse choice. Welcome to the president’s Afghanistan dilemma. The “good” answer to Afghanistan would be to turn back the clock to the point where we routed the Taliban and build on that success by securing as much of the country as possible, strengthening the government and winning the people’s trust. Not possible. The good answer is the one Barack Obama used in his presidential campaign. It helped him get the job, but it doesn’t help him one bit now that he has it. All the other answers are bad or worse. Pulling out means a civil war and a safe haven for al-Qaida. Not good. Leaving the same number of troops in place means they don’t have the resources to protect themselves, let alone the people. Also not good. On the other hand, a major buildup is ridiculously expensive at a time when even calculating the deficit is beyond most of our arithmetic skills. And there’s real
question whether it will make a significant difference given the weakness of the government there, not to mention the obstacles presented by the country’s impossible terrain and contentious history. Afghanistan makes Iraq look easy, or at least easier. So what’s a decision maker to do? Focus on procedure. Courts do that a lot. If the substance doesn’t work, try process. If there are no good answers, then maybe there’s at least a good procedure. By all reports, President Obama and his team have established one heckuva process for deciding whether to send more troops to Afghanistan. The president has met with his advisers repeatedly, has heard various options detailed, and has encouraged open and vigorous debate. Some people are criticizing him for doing too much process, especially as our kids sit there in harm’s way. I don’t begrudge him a minute of it if it helps him find the least bad answer. The only danger of this long process is that people might start thinking it will have a positive outcome. It won’t. There’s no such thing. No matter what he decides or when, the government will still be weak and corrupt, the terrain all but impossible, and the task facing our troops absurdly daunting. No matter how many troops he sends, it won’t be enough and it will be too many. And every time a soldier dies in the future, people will ask whether that was why. Obama’s war is a real stinker. I showed my students part of “The War Room,” the documentary about the 1992 Clinton campaign. There was almost a collective shock in the room when Bill Clinton, in shorts and a T-shirt, shows up for the first time. He was so unbelievably young. My students had never seen that man. I could barely remember him. I wonder how soon it will be before the Barack Obama who ran for president is unrecognizable.

D.G. MARTIN N.C. Columnist The big news in North Carolina insider politics these days is the resignation of Senator Tony Rand — and his pending replacement as Senate majority leader by Senator Martin Nesbitt, who has the recommendation of Marc Basnight, the top leader of the Senate. This big news is something that Raleigh political insiders are having trouble understanding or satisfactorily explaining to each other. They are asking one another: Why would Rand resign one of the most powerful positions in state government and trade it for a position on the state’s parole commission? The parole board might be a great place for a politician who needs a paying job. But it is not the ideal place for a top lawyer legislator who is used to having continuing influence on everything the state government does. The insiders wonder how Asheville’s Martin Nesbitt, whose geographical and political homelands are as far away as you can get from those of Manteo’s Marc Basnight, would get Basnight’s endorsement for the majority leader’s position. I am not an insider, and probably never was, but I am having the hardest time trying to figure out this chain of events.
Some observers say it’s simple: Basnight is simply co-opting a potential rival by bringing Nesbitt into the leadership circle, where he would be less likely to organize a coup that would replace Basnight. Others say that Basnight had to choose among the senators who would be seeking the position, and that Nesbitt was the least objectionable possibility. Then, there are a few who say with some confidence that Nesbitt had already organized a group of discontented senators who were ready to oust Rand from his Senate leadership positions — and that Rand’s and Basnight’s acts were simply a recognition of that reality. But nobody who talks to me seems to know for sure. Whatever the explanation, Nesbitt’s ascension into an important leadership position is a landmark occurrence. To begin to see some of the potential differences, it might help to review one of the classic books about North Carolina politics, “Tar Heel Politics 2000” by state representative and UNC-G professor Paul Luebke. Luebke, an unapologetic liberal, maintains that North Carolina politics is solidly conservative — divided between “traditionalists” and “modernizers.” Traditionalists are obvious conservatives. They are skeptical of most forms of government activism — particularly of government spending to promote economic activity or to improve the lot of the less fortunate. Modernizers are conservatives, according to Luebke, even though they often support “progressive” government programs to promote industrial development and education. They are conservatives, Luebke says,
because their “progressive” programs are almost always funded with regressive taxes — like the sales and gasoline taxes and they do not seriously address issues of “equity” and fair treatment for the poor and powerless- — oncerns that are consistent with a real liberal program. Under Luebke’s definitions, Basnight and Rand are modernizers or progressive conservatives, while Nesbitt (and Luebke) are genuine liberals. Modernizers and liberals have worked together in the Democratic legislative caucuses. But it has not been easy. Put your ear to the ground and you will hear the liberals condemning the modernizers as being so conservative that they are not real Democrats. And you will hear the modernizers saying that a liberal agenda and leadership would lead to election defeat and loss of power. To make a partnership between a modernizer and a liberal work, some of these voices have to be quieted. So, bottom line, will Marc Basnight and Martin Nesbitt form a lasting and workable leadership partnership? Both are very, very smart and very adept at gaining and maintaining power alliances. If they find a way to work together it could be a powerful partnership. But, as for me, right now, I would not bet my fortune on it. D.G.

Sports Editor Just about everything went right for Thomasville Saturday evening, as the Bulldogs pushed around East Rutherford all night long, rolling to a convincing 35-3 victory in the first round of the NCHSAA 2-A playoffs. A stingy Bulldog defense remained the focal point of the Thomasville attack, as they limited what the big playmakers for the Cougars could do. THS scored a defensive
touchdown and safety, three times with the run game and once more in the passing game, showing off their versatility and ability to score in a variety of ways. “We played exactly how we like to play,” said head coach Allen Brown. “We like to play field position, we like to play good defense and we like to run the ball. That was the type of game we were able to put together.” Thomasville was off and running from the opening kick of the game.
Starting out at its own 44, the Bulldogs used a heavy dose of the run and one pass to score first. Kesean Green ran four straight times to move the ball down to the 34 of East. On third down, quarterback Sam Nelson hit Brandon Lucas for a big
chunk of yardage, as the play went for 21 yards. Two plays later from the 11, it was Lawrence Thomas bulling his way into the end zone for the score. A botched snap on the extra point kept the game at 6-0. The Cougars were supposed to be about equal with the Bulldogs on speed, but THS was quicker in every aspect of the game. East could not move the football against the stout Thomasville defense, who recorded the first of

CHAPEL HILL — North Carolina alum Matt Ridge has taken his Davidson County Community College basketball team to the Dean E. Smith Center to play the UNC junior varsity two times in the past, and has yet to come away with a win. His team came home empty for a third straight time losing 81-69 to the Tar Heels on Sunday, but in some ways, it was like a win. Plagued by illness and injury, the Storm were playing without two of their starters in Philip Williams and Kimani Hunt. Despite the losses, DCCC actually held a lead in the second half, 66-63 with 7:36 to play, but were outscored 18-3 down the stretch. Justin

Burney has big day for Carolina BY BRIANA GORMAN
CHAPEL HILL — North Carolina senior Marcus Ginyard said he could feel it during warm-ups before Sunday’s game against Valparaiso. He could sense he and his Tar Heel teammates didn’t have an urgency to play or an excitement to be out on the court. And that lack of energy carried into the game. The sixth-ranked Tar Heels played a sluggish first half and then allowed the Crusaders to trim a 24-point second half lead to nine in the final two minutes before hanging on for an 88-77 victory at the Smith Center. “I said before the season started that some days we’re going to be pretty good and some days we’re going to be pretty ugly,” UNC coach Roy Williams said. “And today was one of those days, I thought we were pretty ugly.” Williams said his team was complacent against the Crusaders, and his players didn’t disagree. UNC (3-0) finished with 14 turnovers, five more than Valpo, and Ginyard lost the ball a team-high five times compared to his six assists. Ginyard said he was mad at himself after the game but when asked to explain he shook his head. “No, I don’t want to go in to it.” The Crusaders (0-2) kept it close at the start of the game and a 3-pointer by Brandon McPherson, who finished with 20, tied

Durham Herald Sun CHAPEL HILL — North Carolina cornerback Kendric Burney admitted he was a little nervous during the review. The junior had just returned a pick by Miami’s Jacory Harris 45 yards and then fumbled the ball to teammate Melvin Williams, who ran the final 44-yards for a touchdown to give the Tar Heels a twoscore lead in the fourth quarter. So when the referee confirmed that the call on the field would stand, Burney had one thought go through his mind. “Whew, thank you,” Burney said. The wild play, triggered by Burney’s third interception of the game, helped spur UNC to a dramatic 33-24 victory over No. 12 Miami at Kenan Stadium on Saturday. With the win, Tar Heels became bowl eligible for the second consecutive season, the first time that’s happened since making seven straight appearances from 199298. “I guess if you coach a lifetime, you see just about everything,” said UNC coach Butch Davis, who improved to 3-0 against his former team. “It was one of the biggest TIMES PHOTO/FRANK RAUCCIO up-and-down, roller-coaster football games

Johnson inches closer to fourth straight title at Phoenix BY REID SPENCER NASCARMedia.com AVONDALE, Ariz.— From his fiasco in Forth Worth, Jimmie Johnson rose like a phoenix in— where else?—Phoenix. A week after teasing his Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup competitors with a 38th-place finish at Texas Motor Speedway—his worst of the season—Johnson regained control of his championship run by winning Sunday’s Checker O’Reilly Auto Parts 500 at Phoenix International Raceway. In a dominating performance in which he led 238 of 312 laps, Johnson increased his advantage over fourth-place finisher Mark Martin (second in the standings) to 108 points. With a finish of 25th or better in the season finale next Sunday at Homestead-Miami Speedway, Johnson will lock up his record fourth straight championship. Johnson, who won for the seventh time this season and scored the maximum 195 points (winning and leading the most laps) for the fourth time in the Chase, will eliminate the other 10 Chase competitors as soon as he takes the green flag at Homestead. The victory was the 47th of Johnson’s career, breaking a tie with Buck Baker for 13th on the career win list. “First of all, I have to thank this race team for having the strength and mental attitude and ev-
Mark Martin (No. 5) was able to hang close with Jimmie Johnson for much of the day, but Johnson went on to win and extended his points lead with one race remaining next wee at Homestead. GETTY IMAGES
erything that they do to bounce back from last week and show up and just put a butt-kicking on everybody today,” Johnson said. “At the start of the race, we were a little loose but still running second or third. As soon as we put new tires on, the car came to life. We made a couple of small adjustments that really, really helped it, and I could get out to a nice comfortable lead, ride, protect what I had, work my way through traffic— not with ease, but better than other guys.” The race ran cautionfree for the final 134 laps. Johnson lost the lead briefly when he pitted for four tires and fuel on Lap 243 at the 1-mile track,
but he regained it on Lap 248 when Matt Kenseth came to pit road. Johnson kept his No. 48 Chevrolet out front the rest of the way, as thirdplace finisher Denny Hamlin and runner-up Jeff Burton, who passed Hamlin for second on Lap 284, took turns in pursuit. Johnson’s only anxious moments came when Hamlin teammate rookie Joey Logano made Johnson work especially hard to complete a pass. “I was trying to be smart through traffic,” Johnson said, “and the 20 car (Logano)—I’m not sure if he was just trying to stay two laps down and didn’t want to go three laps down, or if he was really trying to help his teammate out—
but, either way, the 11 car (Hamlin) caught me. Once I cleared him (Logano), I got back going, and everything was fine. But the 20 car wasn’t being all that friendly.” Johnson, who started third Sunday, plans to take an aggressive approach to qualifying at Homestead to try to avoid a repeat of the early crash that took him out at Texas. “I think qualifying 12th (at Texas)—even though that’s a good qualifying spot—put us in harm’s way, and I was a little cautious, maybe, in qualifying,” Johnson said. “We need to show up down there and treat it like any other race. “The farther forward we start, the better off
we’re going to be, trackposition-wise, the better pit stall selection we’re going to have. Until we get in the race and see what we really have, we’re going to treat it like any other race and just go as fast as we can.” Notes: Johnson’s margin of victory over Burton was 1.033 seconds. … Polesitter Martin Truex Jr. finished fifth, his first top five of the year in his next-to-last race for Earnhardt Ganassi Racing. Truex will drive Michael Waltrip Racing’s No. 56 Toyota next year. … Kurt Busch, Clint Bowyer, Juan Pablo Montoya, Jeff Gordon and David Reutimann finished sixth through 10th, respectively.

Making NASCAR home tracks history Jimmie Johnson fans groaned and fans of pretty much everyone else sent up a cheer when Johnson’s lead in the Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup was cut to 73 points over Mark Martin at Texas Motor Speedway on November 8. Uncharacteristically, Johnson sounded a little defensive in his post-race interview, conceding that yes, his lead had been cut … before pointing out that with two races to go, 73 points was still a pretty substantial margin. Still, that number seems to push the envelope of comfort for fans, who from experience know that in NASCAR, things can change in a hurry. If you can imagine how we might be reacting if Johnson’s lead was only two points instead of more than 70, then you know a little bit about how it feels to be a Philip Morris fan. Apparently someone told Morris this was supposed to be a record-breaking year in NASCAR. After winning his first two NASCAR
Whelen All-American Series championships by just two points, in 2006 and 2008, Morris stepped things up this year, becoming the only driver in series history to claim the title three times. Over in the parallel universe of NASCAR Sprint Cup Series competition, we’re all watching as Johnson also attempts to move into a seat that has forever been empty — to become the only driver in history to win four titles in a row. The Cup Series is ultra-competitive. It is difficult to win a single race these days, much less go all the way to the championship stage. Records in racing rarely fall, and when they do, it is a very big deal. For most of the drivers we know so well and support so ardently, short track racing is where the road to superstardom began. The Cup Series gets the lion’s share of attention, but all across the country, other drivers care just as much, and fight just as hard to win races, as those in NAS-
ON NASCAR
CATHY ELLIOTT Outdoor Columnist CAR’s premier series. You know these guys. You work with them. They’re your neighbors, your friends. They are the guys who leave work, go home and grab some dinner, then head straight out to the shop in the backyard to work on their race cars. When the weekend rolls around, they drive those cars to the race track themselves, often loaded onto an open trailer, basically a larger version of what landscapers use to haul their lawn mowers and weed whackers. Their crews are comprised of their
brothers, their daughters, and their friends. They personify teamwork — which is really just another word for togetherness — in the best possible way. Philip Morris is a stellar example of this. NASCAR Vice President of Corporate Communications Jim Hunter describes the Morris family this way: “They are uniquely all-American. They love God, country, family, home cooking, and simple living; they have deep faith, great kids, and a true love story.” If you’re not sure who Philip Morris is and think you have no awareness of the Whelen All-American Series, you may be wrong. Those tracks you see in the background of a current series of TV commercials featuring NASCAR Sprint Cup Series drivers like Greg Biffle, Carl Edwards and Elliott Sadler may well be venues where Morris actually competes.

one on a Saturday night with a bucket of chicken, a cooler, and the family in tow, you’re missing a real slice of genuine Americana. Plus, it’s fun. There’s not a lot of glory there, and there’s even less money, but like Kevin Costner’s fictional pitcher Billy Chapel in the movie of the same name, these guys do it for love of the game. They may not have last names like Kahne, Earnhardt or Hamlin, but once upon a time they did. It wasn’t so very long ago that today’s Sunday afternoon superspeedway sensations were battling it out on their hometown Saturday night short tracks. In fact, I remember back in the 1990s, my dad once saw Dale Earnhardt Jr. race at South Carolina’s Florence Motor Speedway. After the race, Dad expressed some concern over Junior’s future prospects.

I’ve ever seen.” The Tar Heels (7-3, 3-3) took a 23-7 lead just after halftime thanks to a 32yard field goal by Casey Barth. But the Hurricanes (7-3, 4-3) scored on their next two possessions on a 39-yard Matt Bosher field goal and a 3-yard touchdown run by Graig Cooper to cut the deficit to 23-17 at the end of the third quarter. As UNC’s lead shrunk in the second half, the Tar Heels appeared to be headed down the same path as in the Florida State game three weeks ago. In that game, UNC led by 18 points in the third quarter but allowed the Seminoles to rally for the win. “We just knew we had to go out and finish,” defensive lineman Tydreke Powell said. “We just couldn’t go out flat. We just had to get back out there and finish the game.” And that’s when Burney made his gamechanging play. As Miami began to drive at the start of the fourth quarter, Harris let one fly down field, but Burney — who had returned an interception 77 yards for a touchdown in the second quarter -- was there to pluck it out of the air. He grabbed it at UNC’s 10 and ran it back to Miami’s 45, where it appeared he pitched the ball to roommate Williams. The senior then ran into the end zone to put UNC up 30-17, though it also appeared that he may have been stripped of the ball near the goal line. The review, however, upheld the fumble ruling and the touchdown — the ball slipped out of Burney’s hand, and Melvin had crossed the plane of the end zone before losing the ball. “I knew I forward passed it, but I didn’t
the middle for a 32-yard score and 15-0 Thomasville lead. “We were able to run the ball fairly consistent and able to establish field position,” said Brown. Riley would add another score with 1:26 to play in the half, set up by a tremendous punt return by De Dow. The senior received the punt at the East 45 and scampered down to the nine, where he was tripped up by the punter. One play was all Riley needed, taking the pitch from Nelson in, making it a 22-0 score. East Rutherford’s of-

And after I pitched it to him, I just laid there because I knew it was a forward pass but I was just hoping they didn’t catch it and they called it a fumble, which, you know, it was. “But I was just happy with the situation that happened.” The play happened almost directly in front of Davis, and he jokingly said he wanted to slap both of them. “I didn’t think there was any chance it was going to be reversed,” Davis said. “[Kendric Burney] got tired, pitched it to Melvin [Williams], and Kendric said Melvin’s eyes got real big. That’s a play playmakers make.” UNC’s two-score lead didn’t last for long, however. On the ensuing possession Miami drove 69 yards in five plays and Harris connected with Jimmy Graham for a 14yard touchdown to cut
the lead to 30-24 with 7:21 to go. Harris finished the game 28 of 50 for 319 yards. But then the Tar Heels handed the ball off to bruising running back Ryan Houston and ate 5:18 off the clock while moving downfield. Barth booted his fourth field goal of the game — a 33yarder — to seal the victory with 1:57 to play. Houston finished the game with 76 yards, 33 of which came on the final drive. “We fought back and didn’t quit,” Miami coach Randy Shannon said. “We kept going, but when you have four turnovers and two of those go for touchdowns, it’s going to be a long day.” Notes: No. 12 Miami marks the highest-ranked team UNC has beaten since topping the thenNo. 4 Hurricanes in 2004. ... Miami is 0-4 all-time in Chapel Hill. ... Burney became the first Tar Heel with three interceptions in a game since Dre’ Bly against Georgia Tech in 1996.
HEELS From page 7 the score at 22 with 8:27 to go in the first half. But the Tar Heels then went on a 9-0 run, thanks to a Tyler Zeller layup and free throw, and 3-pointers by Larry Drew II and Ginyard, to take back the lead. The Tar Heels entered the break with a 38-31 advantage, but the team’s leading scorer, Deon Thompson, had just four points and one technical foul. Thompson got tangled up with Valpo’s Cameron Witt while jostling for rebounding position and hit Witt near the back of his head. Thompson said he wasn’t trying to hurt Witt and it was a bad play on his part. Thompson sat on the bench for the final four minutes of the first half, but made up for it after the break. He scored 12 points in the first six minutes of the second period to help the Tar Heels build their largest lead of the game at 67-43 with 11:55 to play. “[The technical] definitely made me mad,” Thompson said. “[I] definitely don’t want to be a negative towards my team. That’s not something that I was aiming to do.” But as the second half wore on, the Crusaders began to chip away at the Tar Heels’ lead from the outside as a McPherson
STORM From page 7 Glover paced Davidson with 18 points and eight rebounds, but he too may be out for awhile as he re-injured the same knee he hurt in high school. He is to have an MRI today to see if there is any interior damage. “I was extremely proud of our effort,” said Ridge. “I thought we played extremely hard, but at times not intelligent. If we cut our turnovers in half then we probably win by six to 10 points.” DCCC trailed 51-39 after the halftime break, thanks largely in part to careless turnovers and offensive play by UNC’s D.J. Johnston and Patrick Crouch. The Storm trimmed the lead to six off a tremendous hustle play by Rico Geter to save the ball at midcourt and hit A.J. Finney for a spinning layup. Davidson then played excellent defense on the other end and had a chance for a loose ball, but instead, the Tar Heels picked it up and Crouch buried a 3 from the win to push it back out to nine. Eric Potts, who is a leader for the Storm every time he steps on the floor, would not let his team wilt. His tough bucket on a putback with the foul began what would be a 10-0 run over the next three minutes and change, as the Storm surged to the one-point lead. “During that run we did a good job on the defensive end getting stops, then we got out in transition which is when we are at our best,” Ridge said. Johnston had a steal and dunk to momentarily snatch the lead back for UNC, but a circus shot by Glover in the lane and two free throws from Zach Williams made it 64-61. Robbie Rives would hit a short jumper after a Tar Heel basket for a 66-63 lead with 7:36 remaining. Potts was instrumental on defense, crashing the boards and throwing his body around to get

Larry Drew knocks the ball away from Valpo’s Michael Rogers in the first half on Sunday at the Smith Center. 3-pointer, his fourth of the night, cut the score to 84-75 with 1:52 to play. Valpo finished 12 of 27 from beyond the arc and Brandon Wood recorded six 3s for a game-high 30 points. But Valpo got not closer than nine as UNC held on off in the final minutes of the game. Drew said Williams didn’t yell at the Tar Heels after the game, but instead the coach didn’t have much to say, which scares the sophomore even more. He admitted the next few practices before heading to New York for the Championship Rounds of the 2K Sports Coaches
vs. Cancer Classic could be tough since the Tar Heels will face No. 16 Ohio State and either No. 13 Cal or Syracuse. “This is a wake-up call for everybody,” said Drew, who had a career-high 13 points including three 3s. “We’re going to go to New York and if we play like we did in the second half today we’ll get ate up up there. I’m not travelling all the way to New York just to get embarrassed. I think that this team, we have a lot of potential, we need to wake up now and notice the games aren’t going to get any easier, they’re just going to get harder so we got to go out there and play better.”
fense did not cross over into Thomasville territory until the 1:16 mark of the first half. The trip resulted into three points, but that was not at all what the Cougars were looking for. “Our kids executed really well on defense and put forth a marvelous performance,” Brown said. “We gave up a few big plays, but we were able to stop them after that.” Isaiah Williams all but sealed the deal for the Bulldogs on the second play of the second half, accounting for the second defensive score for the Dogs. He picked off Baxter at the 38 and broke several tackles down the near sideline,
fairly well for himself.) As everyone looks ahead to Las Vegas, it seems important to note that NASCAR hosts another Champions Week, honoring the various support series that prop up their better-known counterparts. Their champions are Jason Bowles (Camping World Series West); George Brunnhoelzl III (Whelen Southern Modified Tour); Donny Lia (Whelen Modified Tour); Andrew Ranger (Canadian Tire Series presented by Mobil 1); Ryan Truex (Camping World Series East, and yes, he’s Martin’s brother); and Philip Morris (Whelen AllAmerican Series). Mark Twain once said that if everyone were satisfied with himself, there would be no heroes. These dedicated drivers, who do their best and give their all every week with little hope of great fortune or international fame, are the heroes of their own hometowns … and one has to believe they are well satisfied with that.
following blockers to the house. THS was suddenly up 29-3, and with the way the defense was playing, it was lights out for the Cougars and their season. The final tally came on a Nelson to Lucas connection. Staring at fourth down and about 20 yards needed from the East 27, Nelson dropped back in the pocket and hit Lucas streaking across the middle of the field for six more. “At some crucial times, again, Sam made some big throws for us,” said Brown. Thomasville (8-4) will entertain Polk County next week at Cushwa Stadium in the second round.
his hands on any ball he could. “His effort and will to win was contagious throughout our team,” Ridge said of his courageous sophomore. “When the season is done, I will be able to say I was honored to be his coach. He is not the most talented I have ever coached, but he is the hardest working one.” DCCC could have built on their advantage, but got careless with the ball once more and could not make a shot. Carolina pieced itself back together from there on out, as Steven Samuels and Patrick McPhall carried them to victory. The two combined for 14 points during the 18-3 run at the end of the game. It was the third straight loss for the Storm, who completed a brutal threegame stretch. “These last three games in the long run will help us,” said Ridge. “Obviously we would have loved to win one of them, but I think the guys know they will help us.” As the injuries pile up, it is starting to look a lot like last season for the Storm. But with plenty of games left, there is time for their wounds to heal and the team still has great expectations for the future. “We have got to get healthy,” Ridge said. “As a coach, this is a critical part of our season because we want to put so much in, but it is hard to do that when you go to practice and you have half of your team on the sideline watching. But it is what it is, and I think when it is all said and done, we are going to win a lot of games this year.” Notes: Hunt is expected back later this week or next week, while Williams is out indefinitely with a tonsil infection ... Geter finished with 15 points, Finney 11, with Potts adding 11 points and seven rebounds ... UNC had outscored its two previous opponents by an average of 71 points ... DCCC dips to 2-3.

committee in support of public option. “Our bill includes public option called the Community Health Insurance Option, which is a backstop option for people who don’t have access to employersponsored care,” she said. Would such an option make it difficult for such a law not to increase the federal deficit? Not according to Hagan. Under this plan she said that those using the public option would pay premiums, although those in what is determined to be a state of financial hardship would have their premiums — at least in part — subsidized. “This would deter people from going to the emergency rooms, which is the most expensive form of health care we have right now,” Hagan said. She also said the bill calls for a surcharge on more expensive premiums to help support the subsidies, as well as funds coming from other groups with ties to the health care industry. When asked about cuts in Medicare as a result of health care legislation, Hagan replied, “I keep hearing that, and I can guarantee people will not see a drop in their Medicare coverage.” The 56-year-old Shelby native, who grew up in Lakeland, Fla., and has lived in Greensboro since she received her law degree from Wake Forest University, said a lot of Medicare money is currently being wasted. “Right now we know there is fraud and abuse in the system,” Hagan said. “We have put a lot in this bill to prevent that, and so we put a number on that [prevented fraud] that said we can reduce the money being spent on Medicare right now by cutting this fraud. I think that’s where people are saying that we’re going to cut Medicare.” Hagan said the Senate HELP bill on health-care reform allows for U.S. citizens over 65 to have an annual check-up, which is an expansion in that benefit. “People need to realize we can’t continue not to take action,” Hagan said of health-care reform. “Ten years ago, people paid $6,000 in annual family premiums; today it’s $12,000; in 2006 it’s projected to be $24,000. I don’t think people
COBLE From page 1 Union Square, a furniture showroom. The former adjunct professor at Davidson County Community College is making her first bid for political office. She is Coble’s first Republican challenger to the seat since 1984. “I’ve been asked if I planned to approach this campaign any differently, because it is intra-party,” Coble said. “No, we’re going to handle this just like we do any contested race. I’m not going to take it for granted. I’ve been awarded 13 two-year leases, and those leases come up for revocation or renewal every two years.” When Coble challenged first-term Democrat Robin Britt for the 6th District seat in 1984, he had to battle former Greensboro City Councilman and Guilford County Republican Party chairman Walter Cockerham for the nomination. He defeated Cockerham, who later became a Guilford County Commissioner and chairman of the Piedmont Triad Airport Authority, by less than 200 votes, before unseating Britt. Two years later, Coble defeated Britt again, but this time by less than 100 votes. Coble has not had a close race for re-election since. “I don’t think I own this seat by any means, and I’ve never treated it like I own it,” Coble said. “The seat belongs to the people of the 6th District
are going to be able to afford those kinds of increases in premiums. That’s why I think health-care reform is necessary.” In addition to her offices in Greensboro and Raleigh (which she took over from Elizabeth Dole after she defeated the Republican incumbent last year), Hagan recently opened a Charlotte office and plans to open offices in Asheville and Greenville in the near future. With labor an important part of the HELP committee and North Carolina’s high unemployment rate, the need for more jobs is an important part of the senator’s focus. “I wake up every morning worried about the loss of jobs in North Carolina and what we’re going to do about it,” Hagan said. “I think our community colleges are far better than others in the country. We’ve got 59 community colleges that are set to retrain workers, and they’re doing a very good job. The problem is, we’ve got to be sure that we can have jobs for their students when they graduate.” Hagan, the wife of a real estate developer and the mother of three children, sees the areas of energy and defense contracting as future opportunities for North Carolina workers. “I think we’ll see a huge number of job increases in the energy field,” Hagan said. “In North Carolina we have this huge military footprint, but I don’t think we have the number of defensecontracting jobs to complement the military bases that we have here.” Hagan said she is committed to working to obtain federal funds to rebuild the Yadkin River bridge that crosses Interstate 85 and separates Davidson and Rowan counties. “I’m working very hard on that,” she said. “I talked to Gene Conti, the North Carolina Secretary of Transportation, who was in D.C. just last week, and we’re continuing to strategize on how we can get that money to replace that bridge. There’s $1 billion in that [federal discretionary highway] fund and to date there have been $58 billion in requests made for it. I’ve put calls in to the U.S. Secretary of Transportation Ray LaHood to see if there’ s anything we can do to show that this is a shovel-ready project and that it is a vital necessity in North Carolina.”
and the people in these six counties that I represent.” The homebuyers tax credit has recently been extended and expanded by a new law. Earlier this year, Coble introduced a bill to extend the credit, which was due to expire at the end of November, but the bill that passed the House and Senate and was signed into law on Nov. 6 by President Obama, had different numbers than Coble’s bill. “I introduced that bill after a visit with a builder in High Point, named Richard Wilson,” Coble said. “We were visiting the site of a handsome house he had built, and he told me, ‘I can’t move it. We’ve got to get some sort of credit for these buyers.’ I thought that was a good idea and figured, ‘Why restrict it to firsttime buyers? Let it be for any buyer,’ and ‘Why restrict it to the end of ’09? Make it through the end of 2010.’” The version that was passed into law extends the first time homebuyer tax credit through June 30, as long as the home purchase in under contract by April 30. It, too, offers a tax-credit for current homeowners wishing to purchase another home, but these current homeowners must meet certain conditions, not included in Coble’s version, and the amount of credit is reduced to $6,500. “That’s half a loaf, better than nothing,” Coble said of the version that
passed. “I’d still like to see it go on through 2010 because I’m convinced that this type of credit will prompt people, who otherwise would be reluctant to purchase a house. At least this new law promotes the spirit of my bill.” An even more publicized bill passed the House Nov. 7 despite Coble’s vote in opposition, the Affrdable Health Care for America Actl. “Everywhere I go I have several people come up to me and thank me for my vote on that,” Coble said. “I don’t suggest that everything in that Pelosi bill is bad, but I think that there’s more bad than good in it.” The bill, sponsored in part by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D- Calif.), now goes to the Senate. “I’m hoping that the Senate will examine it carefully, and I think they will,” Coble continued. “I think if anything comes out of the Senate, it will be a drastic alteration of the bill that we sent over to them last week.” Speaking of health, Coble, who turns 79 on March 18, is grateful for his own, and that has led him to seek a 14th “lease” on his House seat. “As long as my health continues — knock on wood — I don’t anticipate any voluntary abrupt departure,” Coble said of the job he has held for almost a quarter century. “I could be involuntarily departed, but I look forward to running again and, hopefully, the contract will be renewed.”

New Web site offers online learning opportunities TIMES STAFF REPORT
RALEIGH – Gov. Bev Perdue today announced the launch of eLearningNC.gov, the entry point to all the eLearning resources North Carolina has to offer. The new web site will provide an easy one-stop-shop for any North Carolinian, from K-12 students to life-long learners, who wants to take advantage of online learning such as the NC Virtual Public School, online courses from community colleges or universities, and online career building. “Over the last 10 years, technology has revolutionized the way we live and work – and I’m committed to using it to revolutionize the way we teach and learn,” said Perdue. “With the click of a mouse, anyone in North Carolina will be able to access online learning through this new web site. A highlyeducated workforce, highly-proficient in technology, is key to keeping North Carolina competitive in the high-tech global economy.” eLearningNC.gov was created by a partnership between the Office of the Governor, the North Carolina Education Cabinet, and the North Carolina eLearning Commission. “As Chair of the North Carolina eLearning Commission, I am excited about today’s official launch of the K-20 eLearning web site,” said Lt.

My hope is that this web site fosters a culture of lifelong learning for all the citizens of our state.” eLearning provides all K-12 students, regardless of location or background, with the ability to take online courses that would normally not be available to them.
