Flea Market owners say they intend to rebuild

S ENIOR ARTISTS Oak Park residents paint their way into lives of those going in new Habitat homes

BY KARISSA MINN kminn@salisburypost.com

lijah Palmer loves firetrucks. The 5-year-old also knows where all the city fire stations are, and he can sometimes tell you about the equipment parked inside.

His mother, Lori Blume, says the garden hose at their house on Dan Street — a new Habitat for Humanity home — is a fire hose to Elijah.

“He thinks he’s a fireman,” Blume explained. He’s always asking his mother how old someone has to be to drive a firetruck.

Some Oak Park residents came to know about Elijah’s love of firefighters as part of their “Art for Habitat” project at the retirement community MARK off Enon Church Road.

WINEKA For several months now, Oak Park has provided a second-floor art studio in which its enthusiastic senior artists — many painting for the first time — have created artwork they hope will hang some day in new Habitat for Humanity homes in Salisbury.

It wasn’t long before they learned of Elijah’s love for all things fire department-related, leading to resident Becky Lounsberry’s acrylic painting of a firetruck, which she presented to Elijah Wednesday afternoon when he visited Oak Park.

But that wasn’t all.

Lounsberry also had painted something for Elijah’s neighbors — a fairy for 12-year-old Trisha McCarty and a drum set for 16-year-old Samantha McCarty. They also live in a new Habitat home on Dan Street, and Lounsberry knew she had painted specific things each child would enjoy.

There’s a good chance all three pictures were hanging in the bedrooms of the children that night.

“It was a real challenge to do the paintings, but a lot of joy,” Lounsberry said.

While Lounsberry took care of the “inside,” Tom Alcock addressed the “outside.”

Alcock, a retired homicide detective from Chicago, has been painting each new Habitat house as it appears from the street, referring to photographs taken of the exteriors.

Wednesday, Alcock presented those paintings, suitable for framing and hanging, to Blume and Kelly McCarty (the mother of Samantha and Trisha).

For a couple of months, well-known local artist Betty Sedberry has been coming to Oak Park once a week and offering her hour’s worth of advice, consultation and instruction to the novice artists at Oak Park.

Alcock, for example, had never tried painting before this year.

Sedberry marveled Wednesday at the progress all

The owners of the Webb Road Flea Market have said they hope to rebuild after last Friday’s fire destroyed it, but the process is uncertain and slow going.

A press release sent out by Catherine Popp, one of the co-owners of the Webb Road Flea Market, said preliminary plans are under way to rebuild at least a portion of the 31-acre site.

Co-owner Chris Stephens is quoted in the press release as telling flea market vendors the owners and staff will “make every effort to assist in your recovery by moving quickly to rebuild.”

Popp said that talk from vendors of a large metal structure with a sprinkler system is “just speculation at this point.” The focus in recent days has been organizing an open-air market in time to reopen at 8 a.m. today.

“Our primary consideration has been to ... get these people who’ve lost everything back in business in some way, shape or form,” she Open-air market besaid. “We haven’t even gins at 8 a.m. today. begun the process of cleanup.”

Popp said while the owners want to rebuild the enclosed flea market, they can’t commit to it without knowing what they’re getting into.

“I think all of us involved would like to do that,” she said, “but until we know what sort of expenses would be incurred and what configuration we may have, that is just one of many considerations we’re evaluating at this point in time.”

The Webb Road Flea Market opened in 1985 at the present site at 905 Webb Road. Before last week’s fire, it existed as a hodgepodge of connected structures, without sprinklers and likely without a fire alarm system, according to Rowan County Fire Marshal Tom Murphy.

Any new construction would require the owners to get approval from various county departments, including planning and zoning, health, building inspections and the fire marshal.

Dana Hart, director of Rowan County building code enforcement, said the owners would need to receive building, plumbing, electrical and other permits.

“Obviously, we want to make sure that whatever structure is built — whenever, wherever, however — that we comply with the necessary ordinances and regulations,” Popp said. “At this point, we have not made any of those inquiries.”

Hart said building inspectors will need to see some plans before knowing exactly how those ordinances and regulations apply. Different rules are set depending on whether a location has multiple buildings or a single building, the square footage of a structure and the materials contained in a structure.

County building and fire codes — which architects typically consult when drawing up plans — regulate things like the width of walkways and passageways, the number and location of exits, and the maximum square footage before a sprinkler system or fire barrier must be installed.

Hart said sprinkler heads in modern systems only come on in the immediate area of a fire, reducing possible damage from smoke, fire and water.

“It’s not going to flood the building and ruin all of the merchandise,” he said.

The installation of a sprinkler system may be a challenge, depending on the available water pressure, Murphy said. Whether or not such a system is required, he said, “there’s going to have to be a fire alarm.”

New rules seek to keep pilots from working while fatigued

Pastor who was going to burn Qurans flies to NY

WASHINGTON (AP) — Work hours would be shortened for pilots who fly at night while some pilots who fly during the day could spend more time in the cockpit under a government proposal to help prevent dangerous fatigue.

The Federal Aviation Administration plan, which the agency has spent 15 months drafting, is an attempt to overhaul pilot work rules to reflect current scientific understanding of how fatigue impacts human performance and prevent errors that cause accidents. The rules were last updated more than two decades ago and most date back to the 1940s.

The proposal released Friday would bar airlines from scheduling pilots to be on duty — a combination of being at work ready to fly or in the cockpit flying —

GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) — An acquaintance of the pastor who once planned to burn copies of the Quran to mark the 9/11 anniversary says the Rev. Terry Jones flew to New York on a Friday night flight.

K.A. Paul, a Christian evangelist who runs a ministry in Houston, says he bought the ticket for Jones to fly out of Orlando. Jones has said he planned to meet with the imam overseeing a proposed mosque and Islamic center to be built near ground zero.

Earlier Friday, Jones’ son, Luke, said that the Quran-burning won’t take place today but couldn’t say whether there would be a future event.

TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — Iran postponed the planned release of an American woman jailed along with two friends for more than a year, state media reported, dealing a blow to the hopes of three U.S. mothers who have pleaded for the trio’s release.

Iranian officials had said that Sarah Shourd, who was detained with her friends near Iran’s border with Iraq, would be released today. But the IRNA state news agency quoted the deputy chief of communication for the Iranian president’s office, Mohammed Hassan Salilhimaram, as saying that would not happen.

Tehran’s chief prosecutor, Abbas Jafari Dolatabadi, blamed the fact that “judicial procedures have not been done,” according to the semiofficial ILNA news agency.

NEW YORK (AP) — Elated by a major court victory, gay-rights activists are stepping up pressure on Congress to repeal the military’s “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy this month. They want to avoid potentially lengthy appeals and fear their chances for a legislative fix will fade after Election Day. The House voted in May to repeal the 17-year-old policy banning openly gay service members. Many majority Democrats in the Senate want to take up the matter in the remaining four weeks before the pre-election recess. Republican leaders aren’t interested.

National gay-rights groups, fearing possible Democratic losses on Nov. 2, urged their supporters Friday to flood senators’ offices with phone calls and emails asking that the Senate vote on the measure during the week of Sept. 20.

“If we don’t speak up now, our window for repeal could close,” said Joe Solmonese, president of the Human Rights Campaign.

13 suicides linked to clergy sex abuse in Belgium BRUSSELS (AP) — Hundreds of sex abuse victims have come forward in Belgium with harrowing accounts of molestation by Catholic clergy that reportedly led to at least 13 suicides and affected children as young as two, a special commission said Friday.

Professor Peter Adriaenssens, chairman of the commission, said the abuse in Belgium may have been even more rampant than the 200-page report suggests.

“Reality is worse than what we present here today because not everyone shares such things automatically in a first contact with the commission,” he told reporters.

Furniture deal to create 200 jobs in Valdese Furniture, Michigan’s largest furniture retailer, and Kellex Corp., a furniture manufacturer in Burke County.

The partnership will design and develop quality custom and semi-custom living room and family room seating. Six styles of living room and family room collections will be available by mid-October.

Adriaenssens, a child psychiatrist who has worked with trauma victims for 23 years, said nothing had prepared him for the stories of abuse that blighted the lives of victims. “We talk about people who have gone through serious abuse,” Adriaenssens said.

Team claims record-breaking pumpkin launch in Utah MOAB, Utah (AP) — A team that shoots pumpkins from a giant air cannon says it achieved the holy grail of the sport — chucking a pumpkin a distance of more than one mile.

The “Big 10 Inch Team” from Pennsylvania, Delaware and New Jersey says it launched the 9.5-pound pumpkin at Moab’s old airport on Friday.

The team used a 90-foot, compressedair cannon and traveled to southern Utah hoping the high elevation and thin air would help the vegetable sail farther.

The group launched a pumpkin last year that traveled 4,623 feet.

Canada’s ‘Prince of Pot’ sentenced to five years SEATTLE (AP) — Canada’s so-called Prince of Pot, who sold millions of marijuana seeds to U.S. customers before his 2005 arrest, has been sentenced to five years in prison after earlier pleading guilty to a drug charge.

At his sentencing in U.S. District Court in Seattle, Marc Emery told the court that he “arrogantly violated U.S. law.” Extradited from Vancouver, British Columbia, in May, the 52-yearold pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to manufacture marijuana.

On his website, Emery claimed to have made about $3 million a year selling seeds and to have sold more than 4 million seeds over the years. U.S. Attorney Jenny Durkan says Emery “sold to anyone who would pay him.”

WASHINGTON (AP) — Facing big Democratic losses in November, President Barack Obama blamed Republicans and election-year politics for thwarting his efforts to do more to spur a listless economy. He challenged Congress to quit squabbling and quickly approve “what we all agree on” — a reprieve for expiring tax cuts for the middle class.

“Let’s work on that. Let’s do it,” he told a nationally broadcast White House news conference.

Obama said his economic programs were helping, but “the hole the recession left was huge and progress has been painfully slow.”

Noting the stubbornly high jobless rate, Obama acknowledged that many voters in the Nov. 2 midterm elections probably will blame him for economic hard times and could take it out on congressional Democrats.

He said that “since I’m the president and Democrats have controlled the House and the Senate, it’s understandable that people are saying, you know, ‘What have you done?’ ”

However, airlines would be allowed to schedule pilots who start their work day between 7 a.m. and 1 p.m. for as much as 10 hours of actual flying time — two more hours than currently allowed.

Airlines would also have to allow pilots nine hours of rest between work days, an increase of an hour. Pilots have complained that the current eight-hour rest period, which begins as soon as they leave the plane, often means only a few hours sleep.

The proposed work rules would apply to all airlines, including cargo carriers and charter airlines. Cargo carriers — especially package delivery services — do much of their flying at night.

Four die, at least 50 hurt when gas line ruptures

two spoke about the Bible and God’s judgments “because of the murder of unborn children by abortion with the protection and support of the United States government.”

“I didn’t really know him,” Spitz said of Moose.

Spitz said he warned Moose that talking to a stranger about something as serious as bombing an abortion clinic was “not a wise move.”

Still, he said, “Unborn babies deserve to be defended and protected just as much as born babies deserve to be defended and protected,” he said. “... I personally believe babies stopped from being murdered is more important than bricks and mortar of a building.”

Spitz said Army of God is not an organization, but a belief “that unborn children deserve to be protected.” And he claims Army of God does not advocate violence — he says “people who call themselves pro-choice” do that by “killing unborn babies in the womb” — but he doesn’t shy away from discussing violence.

“Anyone who’s ever shot an abortionist dead has only killed one person,” he said. “...

If I had to choose between a live baby and a live abortionist, I would choose live babies.”

Flip Benham, the director of Operation Save America — an anti-abortion group based in Cabarrus County — called Army of God leaders “liars” and “punks” who spout hate speech and encourage violence.

Spitz called Benham a “crazy guy as far as I’m concerned.”

“He wants to keep them (abortion clinics) going, and he wants to keep the abortionists going,” Spitz said. “He’s choosing live abortionists over live babies.”

Spitz’s website, www. armyofgod.com, features Bible verses, pictures of aborted fetuses, and links to biographies and stories of convicted abortion clinic bombers and murderers of abortion doctors, who he calls “heroes who stood up for the unborn.”

One organization is grateful for Moose’s arrest.

Planned Parenthood Health Systems of North Carolina, the organization that informed the FBI of the posts on Moose’s Facebook page, made a statement following the arrest: “Planned Parenthood is so appreciative of the FBI and their quick work in arresting an alleged bomb maker suspected of targeting women’s health centers.”

The FBI said Moose’s detention hearing is scheduled for Monday at 2:30 p.m. in Greensboro. The hearing will determine what, if any, conditions of release Moose will be under, or if he will remain incarcerated until trial.

Moose is currently being held as a federal prisoner in Alamance County.

formant with detailed information about how to make explosives and how to carry out the plot without being injured or arrested. He faces up to 20 years in prison if convicted.

According to activity on a Facebook page created by Moose, he was an active Army of God follower, posting comments on the organization’s Facebook page and reposting articles or videos from that page.

The Southern Poverty Law Center, a nonprofit civil rights organization that tracks hate groups, calls Virginia-based Army of God “a long-time cheerleader for the murderers of abortion doctors” and “a loosely connected collection of people who have carried out violent attacks on abortion clinics, doctors and other clinic workers.”

Spitz told the Post on Friday that he and Moose, who lives in Concord and graduated from high school in Rowan County, traded emails and F a c e b o o k MOOSE messages several times, but spoke on the phone only once.

“I heard rumors that Justin was posting things that weren’t wise” on his Facebook page, Spitz said. “When I heard that, I tried reaching out to him.”

The FBI says that aside from hate speech targeting abortion clinics and doctors who perform abortions, Moose posted a link to a website that contains instruction on making a bomb.

Spitz provided a Salisbury Post reporter with private messages that he and Moose sent each other one day before Moose’s arrest.

In a message to Moose on Sept. 6 at 1:37 a.m., Spitz encourages Moose to not post anything that may get him in trouble.

“Anyone that wants that info can get it without you putting yourself at risk,” he wrote Moose.

Moose responded hours later: “If your referring to a video on chemistry, it was a risk I had to take. Instead of sending it directly to the individual that needed it, I posted it generally. I’m trying to protect that person’s interests and safety.”

An hour later, Spitz told Moose he didn’t see the post personally, but was just responding to the “rumor mill.”

“Everything is going good, brother,” Moose replied. “You know I can’t say much, just trust me on this one... In this situation, my security is secondary to the security of the mission.”

Spitz also said Moose called Contact Shelley Smith at him, but only once, and the 704-797-4246.

The damaged section of pipe was isolated and gas flow to the area was stopped. Haag said PG&E crews were still not able to access the site of the ruptured line because it was covered with water.

Over the past two decades, federal officials tallied 2,840 significant gas pipeline accidents nationwide — including 992 in which someone was killed or required hospitalization, according to the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration.

Those accidents killed 323 people and injured 1,372.

Experts say the nation’s 296,000 miles of onshore natural-gas lines routinely suffer breakdowns and failures.

State Assemblyman Jerry Hill, who represents San Bruno and surrounding cities, said he has heard multiple reports from constituents who had alerted PG&E of gas odors before the disaster.

The residents “deserve to know if PG&E used the correct procedures in the days and weeks leading up to this disaster,” Hill said.

PG&E President Chris Johns said the company has heard the reports of a gas odor in the area before the blast.

Compared to the tens of thousands of miles of gas pipelines across the country, accidents are relatively rare.

In 2009, there were 163 significant accidents involving natural gas pipelines, killing 10 people and injuring 59.

Transmission lines like the one that burst in San Bruno deliver natural gas from its source to distribution lines, which then carry it into neighborhoods before branching

chimneys and charred trees are seen Friday near the homes destroyed by a gas explosion in san Bruno, calif.

More than 60 percent of the lines are 40 years old or older and almost half were installed in the 1950s and 1960s, according to a recent analysis by the Pipeline Safety Trust, a nonprofit advocacy group based in Bellingham, Wash.

Most of the older pipelines lack anticorrosion coatings that are prevalent in the industry today, said Carl Weimer, executive director of the trust, which was set up following a 1999 explosion that killed three people in Bellingham.

“The industry always says that if you take care of pipelines, they’ll last forever,” Weimer said. “But what we see over and over again is companies are not doing that and corrosion and other factors are causing failures.”

And once a high-pressure pipeline fails, he added, anything can trigger a deadly blast. A cigarette or rocks smashing as high-pressure gas shoots by. Even someone answering a cell phone can cause a spark, because it is battery-powered, Weimer said.

SAN BRUNO, Calif. (AP) — All that was left of some houses Friday were chimneys, rising from still smoldering ruins. Burned-out cars sat along ash-covered streets. And a rescue worker with a dog searched door to door for missing people.

The day after a gas line ruptured and a towering fireball roared through a suburban San Francisco neighborhood, killing four people, officials were trying to determine what led to a blast that raised questions about the safety of similar lines that crisscross towns across America.

“It was pretty devastating,” Fire Chief Dennis Haag said.

“It looks like a moonscape in some areas.”

At least 50 people were hurt, with seven suffering critical injuries in the explosion Thursday evening that left a giant crater and laid waste to dozens of 1960s-era homes in the hills overlooking San Francisco Bay. The utility that operates the 30-inch diameter line said it was trying to find out what caused the steel gas pipe to rupture and ignite. Federal pipeline safety inspectors were also on the scene Friday.

“It was just an amazing scene of destruction,” National Transportation Safety Board vice chairman Christopher Hart said.

Historic panel says no to underwear sign Clyde plans to appeal decision; ‘paper is wood,’ he claims

BY EMILY FORD eford@salisburypost.com

“Underwear alley” remains, but the paper-and-duct-tape sign announcing it has to go.

Clyde went before the city’s Historic Preservation Commission Thursday night seeking an allowance for the homemade sign, which directs passersby to a clothesline of boxers and briefs strung outside his antique shop at 114 E. Council St. Clyde, who dropped his last name, hung the sign and strung the skivvies in July after Anne Cave, executive

director of the Rowan Arts Council, removed a pair of men’s briefs taped to his window due to inappropriateness.

Cave faces a larceny charge for the removal. She and Clyde go to court Nov. 1.

The Historic Preservation Commission denied Clyde’s request based on his sign’s material — paper and duct tape.

If the sign had been wooden, it might have stood a chance.

The small placard became an issue when someone complained about it to the city. Officials found the sign

to be in violation of city code.

Clyde appealed to the commission.

Now, he said he will appeal to the Zoning Board of Adjustment on Oct. 11.

He’s appealing not the decision but procedural irregularities he said occurred while the commission discussed and decided the case.

During the discussion, Clyde tried unsuccessfully to argue that the sign meets historic standards.

Suspect in indecent liberties case caught KANNAPOLIS — Authorities have arrested a man they say eluded them for nine months after being charged with taking indecent liberties with children.

Gary Wayne Dixon, 52, remained in the Rowan County jail Friday evening under $25,000 bond.

Officers arrested Dixon, whose last known address was DIXON 500 Forest Ave., Thursday night, the Kannapolis Police Department said.

Police say a Dec. 5, 2009 investigation into a physical assault led officers to charge Dixon with taking indecent liberties. A warrant for Dixon’s arrest was issued in December. However, Dixon somehow eluded arrest for most of 2010.

Davidson County site of ceremony for bridge work A Sept. 29 groundbreaking for replacement of the Yadkin River Bridge on Interstate 85 will take place on 7 Oaks Drive just south of Clark Road near Lexington in Davidson County, the N.C. Department of Transportation said Friday.

The state agency had previously revealed the date for the groundbreaking ceremony, but not the location, which is a former modular home sales lot. The event begins at 10 a.m.

“Turning over the first shovel of dirt on this project will be a historic moment,” N.C. Transportation Secretary Gene Conti said in a press release. “I look forward to sharing it with motorists who will benefit greatly from the improvements we’ll make to this critical stretch of I-85.”

Replacing the 55-year-old bridge is part of the first phase of a project to widen and improve I-85 in Rowan and Davidson counties.

The $136 million project will widen nearly 3.5 miles of I-85 from four lanes to eight lanes from north of Long Ferry Road (Exit 81) in Rowan County to just north of the N.C. 150 interchange in Davidson County. It also includes replacing nine bridges, including the I-85 bridge over the Yadkin River, as well as interchange work.

Police say woman tried to hide in her closet under clothing

CLODFELTER

A Salisbury woman wanted by Salisbury Police for failure to appear in court thought she could outsmart officers by hiding under clothing in a closet, but police quickly found her hiding spot.

Salisbury Police responded to Shameka “Meka” Ann Clodfelter’s home at 319 Vanderford St. around 10:30 Thursday night. The call came in as a disturbance, as Clodfelter’s mother, Annie, was having issues with bail bondsmen.

Annie Clodfelter told police the bail bonds-

men were threatening her, threatening to come into her home and find Shameka, who had apparently jumped bail. Shameka was also wanted by the Salisbury Police for failure to appear.

Annie Clodfelter told officers her daughter was not home, but when police asked to come inside and search, she let the officers in, and they found Shameka in a closet.

Shameka Clodfelter, 26, was arrested and charged with failure to appear, and given a $10,000 secured bond.

Marijuana smell leads to charges A sharp sense of smell led downtown Salisbury Police Officer Rebecca Sexton to charge two people with possession of marijuana and drug paraphernalia.

According to the Salisbury Police Department, Sexton was patrolling downtown Salisbury on her Segway, around the Eastern Gateway Park near the 100 block of Depot Street.

As Sexton approached the park, she noticed two males and a female, along with a strong smell of marijuana.

Police said they searched one of the males, Cedric Matchett, and found him to be in possession of a small bag of marijuana. A search of the female, Jasmine M. Connor, found a set of scales, CONNOR brass knuckles and 14 individual packages of marijuana.

Connor was charged with possession with intent to sell and deliver marijuana, possession of drug paraphernalia and carrying a concealed weapon. She was given a $5,000 secured bond.

Matchett was charged with simple possession.

Judge asked to make quick decision on Alcoa’s permit RALEIGH (AP) — The wrangling over whether Alcoa Inc. will have decades to generate and sell billions of dollars worth of clean power from dams on one of North Carolina’s longest rivers landed before a state judge on Friday.

The Pittsburgh-based aluminum giant is fighting to renew an expired 50-year federal license to operate Yadkin River dams built decades ago to supply electricity to an aluminum smelting plant. The Stanly County plant once employed hundreds but is now shuttered.

The fight centers on whether Alcoa can keep selling electricity to high-paying commercial customers. The company estimated in 2006 that the dams generated almost $44 million a year in revenues from hydroelectrical power generation, a figure that could multiply as demand for clean power booms.

Gov. Beverly Perdue, her predecessor Mike Easley and Stanly County officials have opposed the company’s relicensing bid. They hope to dangle dam-generated electricity to attract power-hungry industries and jobs, and to have greater freedom to draw river water for thirsty communities.

On Friday, Alcoa and its foes argued to state Administrative Law Judge Joe Webster about the process and rules that last year led state Division of Water Quality to certify Alcoa’s wholly owned subsidiary, Alcoa Power Generating Inc., can operate the dams while protecting nearly 40 miles of the river and its reservoirs.

Webster said he would decide by Wednes-

day whether the evidence merits moving ahead or not with a full trial scheduled to open later this month.

Once the fight over the state certification is settled, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission could consider renewing the company’s license for up to 50 more years.

Opponents said the state agency wrongly issued the permit by allowing dam upgrades on a schedule that delays clearing up problems for years. The state should have required the upgrades first, said Thomas Griffin, an attorney for Stanly County.

“The people of North Carolina should not have to take that risk that this (schedule) will not work,” Griffin said. “Put the risk on them.”

The state water agency defended its decision. Its certification had conditions, including that Alcoa posting a $240 million guarantee that it will follow through with planned environmental improvements. Alcoa has argued that the bond was excessive and unneeded.

Opponents “have only shown that they wanted a different result and that they would have reached that result through different means. That’s not the standard for overthrowing an agency’s decision,” said Donald Laton, a state attorney representing the DWQ. At an earlier stage of the fight, Webster ruled that Stanly County demonstrated it was likely to prove that the state agency did not consider all environmental data it could have before issuing the certification.

Webster’s ultimate decision could be appealed to state Superior Court.

Blue ridge parkway superintendent phil Francis speaks on the 75th anniversary of the Blue ride parkway in Low Gap.

Dignitaries turn out on Blue Ridge Parkway’s 75th anniversary begin on Sept. 11, 1935, initially employing more than 100 workers near Cumberland Knob.

“The Southern edge of the parkway started as no more than a bushwhacked footpath by an engineer for the North Carolina Highway Commission,” said Perdue, according to an advance copy of her remarks.

The Friday ceremony marked the start of a weekend festival celebrating the parkway, featuring music, crafts and other activities at Cumberland Knob and the Blue Ridge Music Center in Virginia. The festival is expected to draw about 10,000 people to the area.

About 17 million people drive on the parkway every year, and both Perdue and McDonnell said the highway is an important component to the tourism economy.

“I have great respect for Coach Hester,” James said.

“You’ve got a great program over at Catawba ... a well-oiled machine.”

He said the team knows a game against Catawba will not be easy, but if they stay close yard-for-yard, they could have a good chance at winning.

“We’re looking forward to tomorrow,” he said. “This is a big game.”

Hester was introduced by club member Chris Ratliff, who praised his win-loss record and commitment to coaching.

Hester began his speech by welcoming James to Salisbury, saying the two have a long history together.

“When I saw who (Livingstone) hired, I said, ‘Oh boy.

His high school coaches nurtured him, Deadwyler said, and helped him turn his life around.

James began coaching at Livingstone College this year after the program ended last season with a 0-10 record.

“Even though I came into a very difficult situation, I accept the opportunity,” James said. “I don’t see it as a challenge, because ... when I grew up, that was a challenge.”

He said the people of Livingstone and Salisbury have been wonderful.

“It’s been about seven months since I’ve been here, and I can say without a doubt it’s been one of the best places in my coaching career,” he said.

DARTS AND LAURELS

Higher debt for higher ed Another 9/11 anniversary Dart to the heavy load college students are toting around these days — that’s debt load, not bookbags or course schedules.

The amount U.S. students and their parents owe hit a dubious milestone this week as total college loan debt (almost $830 billion) surpassed the amount owed on credit cards ($826.5 billion). While Americans have whittled down credit-card use during the economic downturn, college debt has surged in the same period. Tuition fees are rising at both private and public colleges. Along with the increasing cost of eduction, many parents and students are having to finance a higher portion of college costs because of reduced household income. The gloomy job market also is influencing some students to extend their college careers and enter graduate school in hopes that employment prospects will improve by the time they emerge with an advanced degree. That may be a good plan for some, but it often comes at the expense of taking out yet more loans.

While it’s too early to declare a student-debt “bubble,” some economists are questioning whether colleges, government lenders and financial institutions need to be less generous with their loans, or at least more candid about the longterm implications of hefty balances.

• • • Laurels to the upcoming groundbreaking ceremony for the Interstate 85 bridge project over the Yadkin River. Details aren’t in yet — we know it’s set for Sept. 29 at 10 a.m.

— but most motorists aren’t really interested in attending the symbolic photo op for state and local officials. They’re just happy to know the long-awaited project has advanced from the planning list to the “gitter done” stage. Meanwhile, here’s another date to mark on the calendar: Under the current timeline, the new bridge is expected to open

by January 2013 (with significant penalties if the contractor fails to meet the deadline for the $136 million project).

• • • Dart to substandard rental housing in Salisbury and Rowan County. Salisbury officials recently got an uncomfortably closeup view of such conditions during an inspection of four rental homes on East 11th Street. City Code Services Manager Chris Branham described the houses as “unihabitable” — and that’s putting it mildly. The list of problems included mold, faulty plumbing, exposed wiring, holes in ceilings and floors — conditions that most people would consider intolerable.The owner of the houses, John King, said he has made improvements since the May inspection, including the installation of new bathrooms, and he blamed the tenants for some of the problems. Obviously, there are other problem properties in the community.

While code enforcement has to follow legal procedures, squalid conditions shouldn’t be tolerated. Landlords need to be held accountable. We can only second the words of Councilman Pete Kennedy: “No one should be living in that type of condition in our city.”

9 years later, searing memories remain Scripps Howard News Service

his past April 12 went by with little notice except perhaps by history buffs.

But on that date in 1861 the Civil War began. The conflict was perhaps the most shockingly transformative event in the history of our republic. Similarly, the Dec. 7, 1941, attack on Pearl Harbor pushed the U.S. into World War II and another reshaping of our society.

Those were occasions for great national soul searching and debate over what it means to be an American, but no longer as those landmark dates recede in our history.

However, at nine years on, the 9/11 attacks by 19 Muslim fanatics are still seared into living memory. People remember with vivid clarity where they were and what they were doing and how they first learned about the four hijacked airliners, the two that took down the Twin Towers in New York, a third that plowed into the Pentagon and a fourth that dived into a field in southwestern Pennsylvania after the passengers forced their way into the cockpit.

After 9/11, there was a brief period of national unity as the country reacted in shock, grief and rage. The unity lasted for only weeks, maybe a month or so, before the day became politicized. Idiotically, the debate was framed in terms of: Either you’re against the terrorists or you’re with them.

President George W. Bush’s administration did nothing to discourage the popular misconception that Iraq had something to do with 9/11.

By now, the Department of Homeland Security, the Patriot Act, the humiliating airport security and the right of federal agents to search laptops are integrated into everyday American life. The war in Iraq is winding down and, we’re told, we’ll be gone from there next year. The war in Afghanistan barely makes the evening news, and there, too, we’re

Why doesn’t media focus on these burning questions?

I don’t know the name of the person who planned to burn the Quran today. Mainly because, in my opinion, it is not newsworthy. I feel the exact same way about a Mosque being building New York. It is not news.

I believe in freedom; therefore, these people have every right to do whatever they want. The media is responsible for creating the hype and emotionalism. I would like to see the mainstream media start asking some real questions and covering some relevant material.

Here are a few examples that interest me.

Why are we really at war in Iraq and Afghanistan? What about the newest economic bubble being created by our government and the Fed in the same of stimulus packages? What really causes inflation? What caused World Trade Center building No. 7 to collapse at freefall speed in classic, controlled demolition style on the afternoon of Sept. 11, 2001, and why did the news of this building coming down not get reported by the mainstream media?

(Or uncommon wisdom, as the case may be)

assured, we’ll be pulling out in a year or so.

But 9/11 remains an occasion for serious and divisive national debate, and for reasons that are far afield from the original attacks.

This year it is about the place of Islam and its followers in American life, centered around plans to build Park51, a Muslim community center and mosque two blocks from the World Trade Center site.

There are demonstrators against the planned center and demonstrators in favor of it and a third group that objects to any kind of demonstrations on 9/11. Religious tolerance is a central tenet of American life, enshrined in the Constitution, and one hopes that in one way or another it will prevail in this case.

This will not be the last controversy pegged to 9/11. But as the years wear on, it will lose its emotional resonance, and one day Sept. 11, 2001, will be just a date of passing historical interest.

If we humble ourselves with complete trust in God, he will reward us with a richness of life beyond our dreams.

God’s instructions for living aren’t designed to deprive us of our enjoyment. He wants us to have fun but to do so in a Godly fashion.

Alcoholic drunkenness, drug highs and other related ungodly acts are Satan’s way of having fun.

The Bible teaches us how we should live if we are to get the most out of life. Proverbs 12:15: “The way of a fool is right in his own eyes; but he that hearkeneth unto counsel is wise.”

— Ellie Mae Lambert Salisbury

According to the book of Proverbs, wisdom is a matter of how one responds to the will of God. Both the wise and the foolish are assumed to be educated in the ways of God, knowing right from wrong.

Not only does foolish behavior displease God; it can also turn a person’s life into selfdestruction. People who shun God’s standards to follow their own desires become frustrated, unhappy and lose hope.

A wise person fears and respects God to the point of obedience. For us to stay on a path of wisdom, we must always listen for God’s directions for our lives. He knows what is best for us.

Wisdom vs. foolishness Moderately confused

orth Carolina’s smokefree law went into effect on Jan. 2, 2010, with the intent of protecting employees and patrons of North Carolina’s restaurants and bars from the harmful effects of secondhand smoke.

With the cooperation of many local restaurant and bar owners, this goal has been largely been met in Rowan County and across the state.

An article in the Salisbury Post last week reported correctly that in Rowan County: “…from Jan. 2-Aug. 29, there have been only 22 documented complaints at 12 establishments and two of those were verified as violations.” Of the more than 24,000 businesses statewide that are subject to the smoke-free law, there were only 35 complaints of potential violations of law involving 30 businesses in the month of August, down from 537 complaints of potential violations involving 318 businesses in January. There is also a documented 89 percent improvement in the air quality in North Carolina restaurants and bars since the law went into effect, a significant step in eliminating employees’ exposure to the harmful effects of secondhand smoke.

Despite this success, there has been confusion among some business owners, particularly bars, about whether their businesses are subject to the law. This is particularly confusing for bars that are considered “private clubs” under North Carolina’s ABC law.

In an effort to clear up any lingering confusion, I have provided a brief explanation of the smoke-free law’s exception for private clubs.

The smoke-free law prohibits smoking in North Carolina restaurants and bars. To qualify as a restaurant, an establishment must be one that serves food to the public, and, as such, is subject to regulation under North Carolina’s sanitation laws. A bar is any establishment with an onpremise permit to serve alcoholic beverages, issued by the North Carolina ABC Commission. If an establishment qualifies as either a restaurant or bar, the general rule is that smoking is prohibited in all enclosed areas.

There is an exception for private clubs, but the smokefree law defines a private club somewhat differently than the ABC laws. In order to qualify as a private club, country clubs or other, organizations must maintain a selective membership, be operated by that membership, provide food or lodging for pay only to its members or its members’ guests, and be either a nonprofit corporation under North Carolina law or be exempt from federal income tax as a nonprofit organization. Since all of these qualifications must be met, this exemption is very narrow. Its purpose was to allow private clubs where volunteers are serving, such as Moose Lodges or VFW Clubs, to continue to allow smoking indoors, if they choose.

Taking a closer look at North Carolina’s smoke-free restaurants and bars law, it is clear that it is an effort to protect as many employees as possible from the known health hazards of secondhand smoke.

I am confident that, with the continued support of Rowan County restaurant and bar owners in understanding and complying with the smoke-free law, our efforts to decrease exposure to secondhand smoke and improve the health of North Carolinians will be successful.

Thanks to the N.C. Division of Public Health for providing data for this article. If you have questions, you can find additional information on the smoke-free law at www.smokefree.nc.gov. If you want to quit smoking or stop using tobacco products, call 1-800-QUIT-NOW (1-800784-8669).

Here’s where you went wrong I’m responding to the Sept. 4 letter to the editor titled “City’s welcome takes a turn.” I want to tell the writer that the biggest mistake she made was to buy a house in the city of Salisbury.

I live in the city now, after forced annexation two years ago. All I have received from the city is double taxes — more than $1,200.

So don’t feel too bad about the $161 ticket. I guess the city needs the money so it can waste it on things like fiber optics.

Remember to vote and get the people who are on City Council out next election.

9/11: This anniversary more political, contentious than others NEW YORK (AP) — They will read the names, of course, the names of every victim who died in the Sept. 11 attacks. The bells will ring. And then that moment of unity will give way to division as activists hoist signs and march, some for and some against a planned mosque two blocks from ground zero.

This 9/11 is more political and contentious than the eight before it, with grieving family members on opposite sides of the mosque battle.

The debate became so heated that President Barack Obama felt the need to remind Americans: “We are not at war against Islam.”

It was uncertain Friday whether hushed tones would replace the harsh rhetoric that threatened to overshadow the commemoration of the terrorist attacks that killed nearly 3,000 people in New York, Washington and Shanksville, Pa. The son of an anti-Muslim pastor in Florida confirmed that his father would not — at least for now — burn copies of the Quran, a plan that inflamed much of the Muslim world and drew a stern rebuke from Obama.

Activists in New York insisted their intentions were peaceful.

“It’s a rally of remembrance for tens of thousands who lost loved ones that day,” said Pamela Geller, a conservative blogger and host of an anti-mosque demonstration.

“It’s not a political event, it’s a human rights event.”

The site of the proposed mosque and Islamic center is already used for services, but it was padlocked Friday, closed until Sunday. Police guarded the block, and worshippers were redirected to a different prayer room 10 blocks away.

More than 2,000 supporters of the project, waving candles and American flags, held a vigil near the proposed Islam-

associated press

crews work at the site of the World trade center, as New York city prepares for the 9th anniversary of the attacks. ic center’s site Friday evening, saying they wanted to avoid entangling the mosque controversy and the Sept. 11 observance today.

Organizers “believe that tomorrow is a day for mourning and remembrance,” Jennifer Carnig said Friday. She’s a spokeswoman for the New York Civil Liberties Union, one of the vigil’s sponsors.

In Afghanistan, 11 people were injured Friday in scattered protests. Only a few thousand people attended those rallies and no largescale demonstrations were reported. In Indonesia, the world’s most populous Muslim country, cleric Rusli Hasbi told 1,000 worshippers at Friday prayers that whether or not the Quran is burned, the Florida pastor has already “hurt the heart of the Muslim world.”

As on other 9/11 anniversaries, official ceremonies were planned at the three locations where the terrorists struck. Obama will be at the Pentagon, Vice President Joe Biden will go to New York, and first lady Michelle Obama and former first lady Laura Bush will travel to Shanksville.

Obama told a White House news conference that Sept. 11

would be “an excellent time” for the country to reflect on the fact that there are millions of Muslims who are American citizens, that they also are fighting in U.S. uniforms in Afghanistan, and “we don’t differentiate between ‘them’ and ‘us.’ It’s just ‘us.’ ” Biden will attend the largest commemoration, at a park near ground zero, where 2,752 people were killed when Muslim extremists flew planes into the twin towers of the World Trade Center.

Houses of worship in the city will toll bells at 8:46 a.m., when the first plane struck the north tower, and three more times to mark the moment the second plane hit the south tower and to observe the times each tower fell.

Activists are organizing a pair of rallies — one against the planned Islamic center, one supporting it — to follow the official ceremony.

Sally Regenhard, who lost her firefighter son, Christian Regenhard, planned to attend the morning ceremony and the anti-mosque protest.

“The purpose is to speak out and express our feelings that this mosque, the location of it, is a grievous offense to the sensitivity of 9/11 families,” Regenhard said.

Researchers want to know what components in blueberries may have health benefits for humans and then understand how the components work, he said.

The project eventually could include human studies.

Dr. Allan Brown’s N.C. State project to map the blueberry genome “will be a nice corollary to the work we are doing,” Grusak said.

If nutrition researchers can confirm the health benefits of blueberries, molecular geneticists like Brown “can help us understand the genes responsible for producing those components,” Grusak said. “All that research would merge.”

Dell closing down over next couple of months

Home & Lifestyles magazine’s Fall Home Improvement Services Page!

WINSTON-SALEM (AP) — Computer maker Dell Inc. says it will close its N.C. plant and lay off employees during October and November.

Spokesman David Frink said Friday that the Texasbased company will close the plant earlier than expected.

Although Dell had announced the planned closure in 2009, it extended that date four times.

In April, Dell said it would likely close its Winston-Salem operation in January.

Frink didn’t give an exact date for the closure, but said employees will be laid off in late October and November.

The computer assembly plant was offered more than $300 million in incentives to choose the North Carolina site in 2004. Most state incentives were never paid, and Dell repaid local governments $26 million in upfront incentives.

With each visit, Sedberry gets caught up in all the work and conversation.

“It’s supposed to be an hour, but it turns into two,” Sedberry said. “We have a good time.”

One of Sedberry’s prized students — they’re all special, she said — is Katherine Ledbetter, whose beach-related paintings are impressive, especially for someone who had never painted before. She is 92.

“I always wanted to do it,” Ledbetter said, adding it’s a good pastime given all the bridge she plays otherwise.

In all, the visit to Oak Park was pretty overwhelming for young Elijah Palmer, who attends kindergarten at Hurley Elementary.

The Quint 4 company from the city fire station on Statesville Boulevard brought its ladder truck to Oak Park as a surprise for Elijah, and it was the first thing he noticed as his mother’s car pulled into the driveway out front.

He knew exactly where the truck was stationed, his mother said.

“He calls it the No. 4 bucket truck,” she said.

The Quint 4 guys enjoyed giving Elijah a 360-degree tour of the truck. He handled a fire hose, learned about the on-board computer and climbed into the spaces where firefighters sit on their way to calls.

Early in the tour, the firemen gave him a plastic fire

at the biotechnology hub.

Lead scientists from Dole Food, Monsanto and General Mills also will speak, as well as Kissell and officials from campus developer Castle & Cooke North Carolina and the UNC system.

Grusak will not relocate to Kannapolis but said he plans to visit once a month.

He will supervise three researchers employed by Agricultural Research Services, the in-house research arm of the USDA. Two postdoctoral research associates — Dr. Sally Gustafson and Dr. Farideh Shafiee-Morrel — have been at work in Kannapolis for two weeks, and Grusak is interviewing candidates for the third position. They will share lab space with the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and N.C. State University.

I wish I knew who writes and illustrates some of these because they give me a lot to think about; sometimes they beLINDA come a stoBECK ry. The following subject really struck me as one to which each of us should give some personal thought: “Ten Things God Will Not Ask on the Last Day.” • “God will not ask what kind of car I drove.

He’ll ask how many people I drove who didn’t have transportation.”

It was interesting that this came over the internet right after I bought the handicapped conversion van. I thought of the plans I had been telling others about how I hoped to take some of my friends with disabilities places they wanted or needed to go. I also had hopes of using the van to travel to myasthenia gravis and multiple sclerosis support groups to give them encouragement and share my beliefs and faith about our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

• “God will not ask the square footage of my house. He will ask how many people I have welcomed into my home.”

It was a blessing to recall the past eight years when I met new friends who found peace and comfort in my tiny home. I thought of all the cards people helped make for our soldiers and the times we shared aches and pains, sorrow and joy. Many folks said they felt at home here.

• “God will not ask me how many clothes I had in my closet.”

He knows that when I gained or lost weight, I passed clothes on to others who needed or wanted them.

• “God won’t ask what my highest income was.” God would ask “if I compromised my character to obtain it.”

Because I have been disabled for so long, God knows how I took care of my debts and shared with others.

• “God won’t ask what your job title was; he’ll ask if you performed it to the best of your ability.”

Again, it has been a long time since I had a job, but the word “ability” reminded me of another famous quote: “God doesn’t want our ability, he wants our availability.” God knows the plans he had for me and enabled me to prepare and make myself available when he called me to serve.

• “God will not ask how many friends I had.

He’ll ask how many people to whom I was a friend.” I recall the days when I thought no one liked me, when I felt left out, and kind of like a wallflower. To answer that question I would just have to praise and thank him for all the friends he brought into my life. I could not possibly have blessed others in the same way I have been

billy Corriher says he always hopes that when the winning ticket is drawn for his dollhouse, it goes to a little girl who will enjoy it.

Labor of love Billy Corriher has a passion for making dollhouses — and raising money for his church

BY KATIE SCARVEY kscarvey@salisburypost.com

illy Corriher is a go-to guy at his church, Mt. Zion United Church of Christ in China Grove. Since he’s a pretty handy guy, he’s built podiums and mailboxes for his church.

And for the past three years, he’s built dollhouses to raise money for a church construction project.

Corriher’s lovingly crafted dollhouses are sought after.

The dollhouse he built this year features three stories, hardwood floors, a spiral staircase with steps made of solid oak and doorknobs and hinges made of solid brass.

His wife of 52 years, Jeanette, handles the color schemes, favoring the bright colors that little girls also love.

She admits, however, that she made a mistake on the top floor of Corriher’s current project, by choosing orange.

Once the paint was on, she realized it just wouldn’t do.

It took a surprising number of coats of blue to cover up the orange.

Working in his basement, which features a ShopSmith woodworking system, Corriher designs and builds the dollhouses to last for at least five generations, he says.

Jeanette agrees that they’re “stout.”

He’s constructed seven or eight dollhouses over the past 40 years, always to give away.

“These things are fun to make,” he says. “I enjoy making them.”

One went to a little girl who had been adopted from the Ukraine by a couple in his church.

Corriher worked in the carpentry shop in the maintenance department at Davidson College for 26 years before he retired in 2001. While he was there he not only constructed many computer stations across campus but retooled a dollhouse for Dr. Sam Spencer, a past president of Davidson College.

For the past few years, money raised by Corriher’s dollhouses has averaged about $1,000 a year.

Corriher buys the materials himself from Cozart’s Lumber in Rockwell, which he says can’t be beat. He points out that Cozart’s has also donated materials for his

One of his intricate structures takes him about three months, from start to finish. He won’t attempt to estimate the number of hours he has in any given house.

Corriher points out that you could build a 3,000 square foot house in the time it takes him to build a miniature one.

But Corriher says he’s a patient man, and that’s what it takes for such a project.

He’s followed in his father’s footsteps.

“I had the most patient daddy in the world,” he says. Howard Corriher, a farmer and textile worker, taught him how to work.

Corriher says he was his father’s shadow on their farm at Five Forks for 25 years.

Corriher has another dollhouse in the works. He plans to give that one to his 17-year-old granddaughter, Kirstie Corriher, who is going to try to sell it on eBay to raise some money for a school trip.

When he’s not building dollhouses, Corriher might be working on his beloved boat.

That’s in the basement as well.

“If you’ve got a basement to

Jeanette smiles.

Corriher says that while he likes to build the houses and give

them away, he doesn’t want to be the one who pulls the winning ticket.

What he hopes for, he says, is that whoever wins will have a little girl who can enjoy it.

Tickets for the dollhouse giveaway are $1 each. To inquire about tickets, call the church at 704-857-1169.

Oh, the utter extravagance of his work in us who trust him — endless energy, boundless strength! All this energy issues from Christ: God raised him from death and set him on a throne in deep heaven, in charge of running the universe, everything from galaxies to governments, no name and no power exempt from his rule. And not just for the time being, but forever. He is in charge of it all, has the final word on everything. At the center of all this, Christ rules the church. The church, you see, is not peripheral to the world; the world is peripheral to the church.

The church is Christ's body, in which he speaks and acts, by which he fills everything with his presence.

The insanity of redundancy What shall we say then?

Shall we go on sinning so that grace may increase?

(Romans 6:1 NIV). s the Apostle Paul developed his magnificent treatise on grace and salvation in his letter to the Roman Church, he raised more than 70 rhetorical questions. In the sixth chapter we can hear the somewhat typical sarcasm of first century Jewish intellect.

REV. DR. former GEORGE JACKSON The Pharisee implied that we should not continue to practice destructive behavior based on the preeminence of God’s abundant grace and mercy. That would be dangerous, reckless, and senseless. Some might call it insane.

When I was watching the network news coverage of the disaster in the Gulf of Mexico, I felt overwhelmed by the magnitude of what has become the largest oil spill in history and possibly the worst manmade disaster since the Exxon Valdez spilled as much as 32 million gallons of crude oil in the

A

Prince William Sound, off the coast of Alaska in 1989.

It seems as if every decade or so we have one of these major catastrophes that devastate our ecosystem and threatens already endangered wildlife to the brink of extinction.

It would make sense to explore and invest in new deposits of clean, less toxic energy sources to satisfy our insatiable need for fuel. But when it comes to oil and the supply and demand for it, logic is often tossed out the window. The Deepwater Horizon offshore oil disaster should have been a wake-up call to our nation. It should have signaled the beginning of the end of offshore drilling.

Instead it has ignited big oil companies to launch media campaigns promoting increased offshore drilling in deep water. The Obama administration issued a moratorium on drilling only to have it rejected by a lower court decision in New Orleans, rendered by three judges with previous ties to the oil and gas industry. In their opinions, an eminent threat to the environment was outweighed by the potential loss of revenue to the oil companies, who threatened to slash jobs if the six-month moratorium stood.

SALISBURY POST

FA I T H

10 THINGS

So we keep drilling even though we know the potential danger. We must be insane. That’s how the 20th century genius Albert Einstein described it. He described insanity as “doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results.” I guess that would qualify most of us for a straitjacket, continuing in toxic relationships or depreciatory addictions in hopes that “maybe one day she will change, maybe one day he will kick the habit”…by attrition.

The oil companies continued to drill on over 3,000 platforms and 33 exploratory wells while an estimated 180 million gallons of crude gushed into the Gulf of Mexico since April 20, 2010. BP could not stop the flow of oil because the technology at their access was inadequate at depths greater than 300 feet below sea level.

When you know something is wrong and you know it’s potentially harmful, continuing in that endeavor is an abuse of God’s abundant grace. His grace is certainly sufficient, but should not ever be taken for granted by blatant arrogance.

Dr. George B. Jackson is pastor of Citadel of Faith Christian Fellowship.

FROM 1B blessed.

• “God will not ask in what neighborhood I lived. He’ll ask how I treated my neighbors.”

I thought back to the time right after my husband died when I lived in the apartment. I remember some negative events there, but I most remembered the one time I turned my back on a mentally retarded neighbor. And when I realized what I had done, I changed my attitude and formed a friendship we both valued. I believe in the end, I felt God say: “Well done, my good and faithful servant.”

In Covington Heights, it has been impossible to visit neighbors in their homes that are not handicapped accessible, but I’ve tried to make them feel welcome to our little development. I know that I helped two children and their mother feel welcome.

• “God will not ask about the color of my skin…He’ll ask about the content of my character.”

It seems all my life people have comment-

ed pleasingly about the color of my skin, but I don’t think the color of my skin affected the content of my character. I think reading and studying God’s word shaped my character.

• “God won’t ask you why it took you so long to seek salvation.”

I was saved at an early age, but I would have to admit it was later before I really put God in my life.

I would certainly not hesitate to ask for his forgiveness. But the email said: “He’ll lovingly take you to your mansion in Heaven and not to the

gates of Hell.”

• The email said, “God won’t ask how many people I forwarded this to.”

He knows I don’t have a long list of e-mail friends, but he already knew he had given me a story for my next book.

He even knows how many folks will read this article and my books.

May I suggest that you put yourself in my place in these 10 things God will not ask on the Last Day. • • • Linda Beck lives in Woodleaf.

FA I T H

Comparing gardens and getting a fresh perspective y wife and I decided to take a day trip to Daniel Stowe Botanical Garden after church on Sunday. The weather was a bit warm, but it was still a beautiful day to enjoy the gardens. We both took plenty of pictures which we will enjoy as screen savers and backgrounds on our comDOUG puters. It CREAMER made for an enjoyable and relaxing way to spend part of our Labor Day weekend.

It is helpful to go and see other gardens where you can get ideas to bring home to your own garden. We saw many plants that were in full bloom, which was nice to see in late summer when most plants have given up the ghost. We saw lots of butterflies while we were there too, although we decided that we get about the same variety in our own backyard with our butterfly bushes.

We have been very fortunate this year to have a large number of butterflies hanging out in our yard.

I have to say that I also

M

noticed something else while we were there. I noticed that this beautiful botanical garden which has a gardening staff also suffers from the same problems we have here at home. We saw plants that were wilted even with their sophisticated irrigation system. We saw plants that were covered in the same webbing we have on ours.

What is that webbing, anyway? They had plants that looked like they had suffered with this summer’s hot, dry weather. Their plants had not escaped disease and insect damage either.

One area they had the upper hand was in the weed department. They had very few weeds trying to live under cover. We spent a good part of the day on Saturday trying to get our weed population back under control.

The flower beds are looking better, but the vegetable garden could use some weed control. Actually, the sweet potatoes have just about taken control of the entire vegetable garden spot. I need to get out there and do some taming on those vines.

I think it is a good thing to look at other gardens and do some comparisons. You can discover innovative

ideas and see what works and what does not. You can also see that other people are having the same problems in their garden as you are having in yours. These same principles apply to our spiritual lives. It is not good for us to live isolated spiritually. We need to get involved in other people’s lives so we can see what their spiritual lives look like, so we can know and understand the problems they face.

One of the most important things you learn when you spend time with other Christians is that we all have problems. Many others are dealing with the exact same problems you find difficult to overcome. Still others have overcome what seems impossible for you. By spending time sharing with others about our struggles in life we can find the strength and prayer support to carry on and to discover that illusive victory.

When we spend time with other people we may discover that we have some insight to offer another person that will help them find the courage to fight and overcome. Another thing that I have discovered is that when I spend time listening to others who are struggling with

life, I find out that my problems are not as overwhelming as I thought. I often find renewed strength to go and fight my own battles when I hear how big and difficult some people’s problems are.

I am also reminded that God does not give us more than we can handle even though sometimes I believe God has way too much faith in me.

I want to encourage you to spend some time talking and sharing with some other Christians. I believe it is important for us to learn to pray for others. When we do, we are taking our eyes off our own problems and difficulties and that often allows us to get a fresh perspective on things. God designed us to work together, not alone, as we take our spiritual journey. Spending time with others today will give us the strength to face the difficulties of tomorrow. Life is full of difficult times but know that God is always with you and if you will permit, I believe that others can and will stand with you also.

302 “Monsters Aliens” (2009)

Saturday, Sept. 11 All those petty restrictions that have been impeding your progress should finally be alleviated in the year ahead, allowing you to move full speed ahead on your dreams once again. You’ll be able to achieve several significant objectives.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) - Because it can be difficult for you to praise others at times, you are easily misunderstood. You’ll feel good about yourself if you will speak up and praise someone for a job well done.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) - Someone whom you went out of your way to help recently, and who may not have shown any appreciation, is trying to find a way to reciprocate.

You’ll feel better about this person once s/he does.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) - Spend some quality time smoothing out a social issue that has somehow gotten out of hand. Make it work out.

Sagittarius (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) - A big achievement that was of a difficult nature might finally be accomplished, all because you knew how to get everyone working together to make it happen.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) - Talk things out with an associate who normally operates on the same wavelength that you do. Once again, this person might be able to fill in the missing pieces you can’t find.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) - Two critical factors that have recently had an impact on your earnings might once again start to quiet down and allow things to fall back into place. Once things mellow out, you can relax.

Pisces (Feb. 20-March 20) - Your word is your bond, which will become quite evident to everybody with whom you’ll be involved.

Once folks start to realize this, it should become far easier to do business with them.

Aries (March 21-April 19) - The main reason you are likely to meet with such success is that you will not only realize what your assets are but what your limitations are as well.

You’ll make things happen.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) - The more you are challenged, the better you are likely to perform. You’ll enjoy dealing with endeavors that call for sharp thinking as well as clever ideas Gemini mestic issues might occupy your time, you’ll be quite effective in dealing with them in both tangible and intangible ways.

Because you won’t be intimidated, desirable results are likely.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) - Team up with those who can help advance your desires and plans. Once they understand how they can fit into the scheme of things, they’ll be both supportive and willing helpers.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) - Because you are likely to focus on opportunities that have real substance and are not just wishful thinking, making a profit won’t be just a pipe dream but will have real possibilities. Do what you think will work.

Cluster-headache sufferer offers advice avail. I tried all the known remedies available at the time.

My agony lasted until I was about 33 years old. My episodes were predictable.

Every day, they lasted from one minute to several hours, for over a period of six months. Then, just as rapidly as they appeared, they vanished for six months.

Then, as luck would have it, while reading a medical magazine, I spotted an ad from a pharmaceutical company advertising a brand new drug called Sansert, which I believe is now off the market.

I asked the radiologist I worked for if he would please contact the company and ask for samples, which he did, knowing that everything else I had tried had failed.

Already in the throes of a cycle, I took the pills according to directions without suc-

cess. After a period of calm between cycles, I was prepared to make another attempt. Typically, the cycle of pain would ensue and build in crescendo, until reaching its pinnacle, after which it would act in just the opposite manner until I was pain-free; usually all within a minute. Only this time, as soon as the pain started, I popped a pill and did so for one full week, after which I began to notice that the excruciating pain began to abort and then lessen, finally disappearing completely. Then I skipped a cycle, only to become disappointed when it once again returned.

After a period of remission, the pain returned. I immediately began taking the Sansert again with success.

After that last bout, at age 33, until this day, I have not had another recurrence.

Dear Reader: To my under-

standing, Sansert is no longer available in the United States but is still available in other countries. It carries some serious side effects, and this is likely why the United States chose to remove it from the market.

Sansert is chemically similar to lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD), a well-known, potent hallucinogenic that has been purported to relieve the pain of cluster headaches and migraines. To my knowledge, no legitimate research has been done on this subject. I discourage everyone from trying LSD as a treatment because it is an illegal substance that carries stiff legal penalties, not to mention the potentially serious side effects that may last for years in some people.

I bring the similarities of these two substances up only because Sansert carries the

Throw the card that helps partner

and South responds one heart, some Norths would rebid one no-trump despite the low doubleton spade. It is better to raise to two hearts. South rebids three no-trump, knowing that his partner will correct to four hearts with four-card support.

Against three no-trump, West leads his fourth-highest spade, the seven; and East plays his jack, the bottom of touching honors when playing third hand high. South takes the trick with his king, leads a club to dummy’s king, and returns a club. What should East discard? Why? East should start by using

the Rule of Eleven. Deducting the value of his partner’s lead, seven, from 11 tells East that there are four spades higher than the seven in the North, East and South hands combined. And East has seen all four: dummy’s nine, his jack and queen, and declarer’s king. So, West’s spade suit is ready to run. However, West does not know that, because South might have started with K-Q-x of spades.

East must paint the picture for West by discarding his spade queen. Then West, when he gets in with his club trick, will cash his four spade tricks to defeat the contract.

BY PHILLIP ALDER United Feature Syndicate

Karl Kraus, an Austrian journalist, critic, playwright and poet who died in 1936, said, “A child learns to discard his ideals, whereas a grownup never wears out his short pants.”

Today’s deal requires East to find the ideal discard to help his side defeat three notrump. Can you see what it will be?

After North opens one club

side effects of mood changes, hallucinations, delusions and more that are also associated with LSD. While I am happy to hear that you have success with this drug, there are safer options available. Unfortunately, Sansert has too many strikes against it for me to feel comfortable recommending it to others.

I suggest anyone suffering from cluster headaches be under the care of a neurologist familiar with the condition. Many of my readers with this problem have found relief using supplemental oxygen. Other options include the triptans (sumatriptan, zolmitriptan), local anesthetics (lidocaine, etc.), certain antihypertensives and others.

Rarely, surgery may be recommended for those who don’t respond to aggressive treatment or cannot tolerate

SALISBURY POST

C O L U M N S / W E AT H E R

Mother doesn’t fight fair Dear Amy: I hope you can help me. My mother and I have a generally warm and close relationship and I consider her one of my best friends. Like many mothers and daughters, we occasionally fight.

Ever since I was a child, even small fights have ended the same way: She tells me I am a miserable, nasty person and says I will end up alone.

Although ASK this has been AMY a pattern for years, it still pains me deeply, and I lapse into a funk for days after one of these arguments.

I don’t know if those are her true feelings or just ammunition, but either way, I just can’t tune out her words.

I have tried every approach to get her to drop the speech, but she won’t listen.

Is this how mothers and daughters normally fight?

Am I right in asking her to stop?

She refuses to discuss it or try group therapy, and she is not suffering from any psychological or mental disorders.

I would really appreciate your advice.

— AC Dear AC: This is not “normal” behavior.

You claim to have tried everything, including, I hope, speaking to your mother about this during a calm and noncombative moment.

You might ask her, for instance, if someone in her life at some point spoke to her this way. Is she repeating a pattern established by her own mother? Did she and her mother argue? Has someone in her life put her down in this way when things got uncomfortable?

It’s not necessary to pull your mother into therapy, though a counselor might help you come up with new

strategies to cope with this unhealthy dynamic.

I suggest that you anticipate this particular cruelty and try to prepare yourself.

You say you can’t tune this out, so the next time this dynamic seems about to happen, you can place your hand gently on your mother’s arm and say, “Mom, that’s hurtful, and I hope you don’t mean it. Let’s try to move on, OK?” Practice this — or a version of this you are comfortable with. Responding differently may scramble this established pattern and compel her to be more civil.

Become Informed...Get Involved!

We had many vases of beautiful flowers!

For my husband’s belated 60th birthday party, I assigned guests to bring a card and a stick.

Once again we filled the vases with sticks.

The room also had tree branches and all kinds of lengths of wood. What fun that was! We will be burning them this winter.

Once again all were happy.

Dear Hostess: I agree with you that some people cannot cope with the “no gift” request.

I love your idea, though I’m a little lost over the concept of the stick gift — but that’s because I have never brought kindling to a party before.

Other hosts fill this need by requesting a card and a can of food for the local food bank.

Dear Amy: What do you think of a colleague who has a tattoo of the logo of the company we work for on his forearm?

I am uncomfortable when forced to view this in the office. I can’t wait until winter when the long-sleeved shirts come out!

Is this some new lame attempt in the current economy to recession-proof ourselves?

Dear Wondering: I can’t figure out what about this would make you uncomfortable, but in my experience, people with tattoos often consider their ink a conversation starter.

If you are curious about your co-worker’s tattoo, you could ask him an open-ended question about it, along the lines of, “Hey Bill — tell me about your tattoo. Is corporate asking us to get these before our next evaluation?”

Dear Amy: I am responding to letters in your column about the request for “no gifts, please.”

I find that no matter what the request is, most people feel obligated or want to bring a gift to an event, so I assign a gift!

For my mother’s 80th birthday party I said to guests that if they wanted to bring a gift, to please bring a card and one flower.

Cougar Time Woody lets Carson go to the air in win at West Davidson/8C

SATURDAY September 11, 2010

SALISBURY POST

1C

www.salisburypost.com

34 games, 34 wins Hornets’ choice still UNC here will be better days for Romar Morris and Darien Rankin than the one they spent on Friday in Mount Ulla suffering through a 28-0 loss to West Rowan.

Those “better days” will be spent in Chapel Hill, both of the Salisbury seniors insist.

Rankin, a safety, committed to the Tar Heels RONNIE back in July, GALLAGHER and Morris, the highly regarded tailback, said yes to Butch Davis’ program in August. Now, only a month later, a cloud of uncertainty hovers over Kenan Stadium due to an NCAA investigation of academic misconduct and agents providing benefits. A total of 13 Tar Heels sat out UNC’s 30-24 loss to LSU last weekend.

So where does all this leave Morris and Rankin?

“As far as my commitment, I’m going to stick with it,” Rankin said. “My commitment is still solid.”

For Morris, it means getting recruiting calls again.

“Because of this NCAA stuff, a lot of different college coaches have been calling me the last week asking me if I’m still solid,” the speedster said. “They’re telling me their school’s not under investigation, so why would you go to UNC? ...

Stuff like that.”

Morris and Rankin said North Carolina assistant Troy Douglas, who recruited both, has discussed the situation with them.

“He called me (Wednesday) night,” Rankin said.

“He didn’t think it would be a problem.”

Morris said he had a similar conversation with Douglas.

West’s latest victim: Salisbury

BY MIKE LONDON mlondon@salisburypost.com

MOUNT ULLA — It was the moW. Rowan 28 ment West Salisbury 0 R o w a n d e fensive lineman Emmanuel Gbunblee had dreamed of for years.

There he was, crashing uninvited into the Salisbury backfield. Quarterback John Knox, who never saw Gbunblee coming, was making a

pitchout for a sweep to the left side.

Gbunblee snatched the toss right out of the air and made a short, happy jaunt to the end zone. It was the play that broke the Hornets’ backs Friday in a 28-0 West victory that was considerably tougher than it sounds.

“It was perfect timing,” Gbunblee said. “And I looked that ball in all the way. I couldn’t let a chance like that get away from me.”

Livingstone hosts Catawba tonight

A streaking Gbunblee made sure several streaks were extended. West (4-0) won its 34th game in a row and also its 34th straight against county opponents.

“Gbunblee’s play was a huge boost for us,” West offensive lineman Davon Quarles said. “We’d been slacking up some, but that play told us it was time to step on their throat and bring it to an end.”

Harvick wins race

BY HANK KURZ Associated Press

BY RONNIE GALLAGHER rgallagher@salisburypost.com

They call it the Mayor’s Cup, but perhaps it should be called the Catawba Cup. Salisbury’s two Division II colleges — Catawba of the South Atlantic Conference and Livingstone of the CIAA — have met in this annual battle for 11 years. Livingstone has lost all of them.

And outside of ebullient head coach Elvin James, no one is expecting his Livingstone Blue Bears to win tonight when the two teams hook up at Alumni Stadium.

Game time is 6 p.m.

Both teams lost last week to the other conference. Livingstone was routed 55-0 at Newberry while Catawba fell at home to St. Augustine’s 20-17.

Catawba makes the road trip of 1.1 miles, and coach Chip Hester insists his team will not be overconfident, regardless of the past.

“At this point of our season, we can’t afford to look past

anyone,” Hester said. “They’ll be up to play us and we’ll be up to play them.”

James said part of his motivation is that a couple of Blue Bears transferred to Catawba.

“Now, the blood and adrenaline is starting to flow,” James said. “I don’t have to say much about (the game).”

James said he was impressed with Catawba defender Brandon Sutton.

“He really brings it to the table,” James said. “We definitely have to contain him.”

Hester noted he liked Blue Bear running back Miles Harris, who stands a whopping 6-foot-3, 246.

While Hester has some returning players, Livingstone (0-2) is suffering from inexperience. Many of the Blue Bears will be participating in their first Mayor’s Cup. “They’re playing with a lot of youth, especially on the offensive line,” Hester said.

“Anytime you play with youth, there’s going to be some growing pains. They’ve got good

Catawba coach Chip Hester hopes his Indians can bounce back from a Game 1 loss. talent. They’ve got good coaching. It’s just a matter of getting it together. I know Coach James. It’s just a matter of time before he gets them on the right track.”

It was a solemn group of Indians this week. They were expected to win their opener.

Now Hester’s job is to get his players to move on.

“We didn’t play well on Saturday,” Hester said, “and we’ve got a lot to prove.

They’re in the same boat.”

The game will be broadcast on WSAT 1280 AM.

RICHMOND, Va. — Kevin Harvick passed Brad Keselowski for the lead with just over 50 laps to go Friday night and won the NASCAR Nationwide Series race for his third victory of the season and 37th overall.

Keselowski fell just short in an otherwise remarkable performance.

The series points leader went two laps down after a pit road problem before the

midpoint of the 250-lap event at Richmond International Raceway. But he was back up to third when a caution flag came out with 46 laps to go. He was still third after the leaders all pitted, but spent the last 10 laps within a few car lengths of the leader.

“We just weren’t good enough to beat Kevin legit tonight,” he said.

Harvick slapped the wall at one point with Keselowski right behind him, but held on.

Edwards earns Richmond pole

BY HANK KURZ Associated Press

RICHMOND, Va. — Carl Edwards will start from the pole position in the final race of NASCAR’s “regular season” on Saturday night at Richmond International Raceway.

The Roush-Fenway Racing driver turned a fast lap at 127.762 mph in qualifying Friday night. He edged Juan Pablo Montoya, whose lap came at 127.455 mph.

The pole is the sixth of Edwards’ career and his second this season, and it puts him

in prime position to go for broke in one of the few stress-free races of the season.

“There’s really no pressure,” said Edwards, winless since the 2008 season finale.

“It’s just go out and have fun and try not to run into Clint Bowyer or one of those guys that’s got a lot on the line.”

A.J. Allmendinger earned the No. 3 starting spot, followed by Bowyer and David Reutimann for the final race before NASCAR begins its 10-race Chase for the championship.

Riley doesn’t like Heat being ripped Associated Press

MIAMI — Pat Riley and LeBron James already have one thing in common. They’re keeping track of what’s been said about how this Miami Heat team got put together this summer.

It seems to be fueling both of them.

Speaking at length with reporters for the first time since the Heat acquired James and Chris Bosh to play alongside Dwyane Wade this summer, Riley revealed he thought some critics of Miami’s roster moves should “get a life.” he is also certain it’ll be a motivating point for his team throughout the season.

“I know one thing,” Riley said. “We will show up and we will play games. And our team will be ready. And I think that’s the way we can answer all the critics.”

Riley specifically cited Orlando Magic general manager Otis Smith and former NBA star turned analyst Charles Barkley as examples of people who took what the Heat president thought were unwarranted shots at the way the Heat went about business this summer. He also mentioned Magic coach Stan Van Gundy — Riley’s former protege in Miami — as well.

On the day after Miami signed James to a six-year contract that lured him away from the Cleveland Cavaliers, Smith said, “I thought he was, I guess, more of a competitor.”

Riley responded to that Friday, saying Smith made, “an absolutely stupid remark. He never made any kind of comment like that when he signed Rashard Lewis and he brought him down from Seattle with an $128 million contract.”

There have been countless other critics of James, Wade, Bosh and the rest of the Heat in recent weeks, and Riley said he’s having trouble understanding the need for venom.

“I take a little bit of umbrage to some of the things that came from people in our game that all of a sudden have become the moral conscience or moral authority on the decisions that every team or some individual might make concerning his life or his career,” Riley said.

Barkley went a step farther, saying James “is never going to be the guy” in Miami because he’ll have to share the spotlight with Wade and Bosh. James responded a month later on Twitter, saying “Don’t think for one (minute) that I haven’t been taking mental notes of everyone taking shots at me this summer. And I mean everyone!”

COLLEGE HOOPS

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Tennessee men’s basketball coach Bruce Pearl has acknowledged providing misleading and incorrect information to the NCAA during a 17-month investigation into possible recruiting violations.

Tennessee athletic director Mike Hamilton is reducing Pearl’s pay by $1.5 million over five years and prohibiting him from participating in off-campus recruiting for one year.

Hamilton said Friday that Pearl provided the information while being interviewed in June about allegations of excessive phone calls made to recruits.

NHL RALEIGH — The Carolina Hurricanes got significantly younger this offseason when they watched their two oldest guys leave.

Turns out two of their newest acquisitions aren’t really all that new.

Two of the franchise’s most recognizable names are gone: Rod Brind’Amour retired and fellow veteran Ray Whitney left via free agency.

But fans surely will recognize two additions. Former Hurricanes Joe Corvo and Anton Babchuk are back with the team after spending some time with other clubs.

When the 33-year-old Corvo rejoined Carolina after a few months in Washington, he immediately became the oldest player on the roster.

NEW YORK — After trailing for much of the third set, Venus Williams suddenly was right back in the thick of her U.S. Open semifinal against Kim Clijsters, serving at 4-all, 30-all.

At that moment Friday night, it didn’t appear to matter that the 30-year-old Williams was bidding to become the oldest woman to win a Grand Slam title in two decades. Or that she arrived at Flushing Meadows coming off a left knee injury.

Then came two pivotal points. First, Williams double-faulted for the seventh time, giving Clijsters a break point. Next, Clijsters curled a perfect backhand lob over the 6-foot-1 Williams to go ahead 5-4.

Williams stopped chasing and watched the ball fall, then hung her head. And that, basically, was that. Defending champion Clijsters held on, winning 4-6, 7-6 (2), 6-4 to extend her U.S. Open winning streak to 20 match-

es and return to the final.

She is 52-2 after taking the first set at the U.S. Open — and both of those losses came against Clijsters, who will face No. 7-seeded Vera Zvonareva of Russia in Saturday night’s final.

MEN NEW YORK — Looking back at recent U.S. Opens, Rafael Nadal sees simple explanations for why it’s the only Grand Slam tournament he hasn’t won.

In 2008, Nadal says, “I was ready to do something very important here ... but mentally, I was destroyed” by the semifinals.

In 2009, he was playing with an inch-long tear in his abdominal muscle.

This year is different.

He’s of sound mind and body as he approaches Saturday’s semifinals against Russian Mikhail Youzhny.

The U.S. Open is the only major tournament where he hasn’t reached a final, and the only one where he’s never played Roger Federer. If both win today, they’ll meet for the title.

The Major League roundup ...

ATLANTA — The Braves scored six runs in the sixth inning, sending 10 hitters to the plate and taking advantage of a dropped fly ball by right fielder Jon Jay to rally for a muchneeded 8-5 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals on Friday night.

Atlanta fell behind 4-1, giving up a two-run homer to Matt Holliday and a two more RBIs to a most unlikely hitter: pitcher Chris Carpenter, who had a runscoring single and the second homer of his career batting in the eighth spot.

But Carpenter (15-6) couldn’t back up his work at the plate. The Braves closed to 4-2 in the fourth on Brian McCann’s runscoring single, then knocked out the St. Louis starter in the sixth. Atlanta remained one game behind Philadelphia in the NL East.

Phillies 8, Mets 4 NEW YORK — Roy Halladay earned his 18th victory, the most by a Philadelphia pitcher in 27 years, and hit a two-run single to lead the Phillies past the New York Mets 8-4 for their fourth straight win.

Ryan Howard and Chase Utley homered as the NL East leaders held their onegame edge over Atlanta.

Wilson Valdez, subbing for injured shortstop Jimmy Rollins, drove in two runs.

Marlins 3, Nationals 1 WASHINGTON — Alex Sanabia (4-2) allowed three hits in 62⁄3 scoreless but peaceful innings in the first meeting between the teams since they brawled Sept. 1.

BOBCATS “He’s got to be there for us, CHARLOTTE — The Charlotte Associated Press

Bobcats will bring veteran forward Darius Miles to training camp with a non-guaranteed contract as he attempts another comeback from a serious knee injury.

General manager Rod Higgins said Friday the former No. 3 overall draft pick will get a chance with after participating in offseason workouts and summer-league practices with Charlotte.

The 28-year-old Miles was out of the league last season and has played sparingly since microfrac-

ture knee surgery in 2006.

NETS EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — The New Jersey Nets signed veteran free agent forward Joe Smith to a one-year contract and hired Milton Lee as director of basketball operations on Friday.

The first pick overall in the 1995 draft, Smith is joining his 11th team in a 15-year NBA career. He appeared in 64 games with Atlanta last season, averaging 3.0 points and 2.5 rebounds.

The NL Central leaders had dropped a season-high five in a row, whittling their lead over St. Louis from eight to five games.

Cubs 4, Brewers 0 MILWAUKEE — Carlos Zambrano (8-6) allowed three hits in 8 2-3 innings and struck out nine to win his fifth straight decision since returning to the rotation Aug. 9 after a suspension for a dugout outburst in June. He also had three hits and drove in a run.

J.J. Putz (7-5) pitched a scoreless eighth inning to get the win.

Rays 9, Blue Jays 8 TORONTO — Evan Longoria scored the go-ahead run on a throwing error by shortstop Yunel Escobar in the ninth inning and Tampa Bay beat the Blue Jays after blowing a seven-run lead.

B.J. Upton and Ben Zobrist hit solo homers for the Rays, who won for just the second time in six games.

Orioles 6, Tigers 3 DETROIT — Matt Wieters hit a tiebreaking sacrifice fly in the eighth inning, atoning for an earlier error, and Baltimore beat the Tigers.

Kevin Harvick celebrates winning the Virginia 529 College savings 250.

NATIONWIDE FROM 1C “The way the lapped traffic fell just wasn’t real good for us, and then I got a little aggressive with the throttle and got the thing sideways,” he said of his contact with the safer barrier. “You can’t hardly tell the thing hit the wall, and hit it pretty hard.”

Keselowski said he saved his tires for one final late push, but was still pleased.

“To come back and get to the front and have a chance for the win, that’s the sign of a really strong team,” he said after padding his lead over Carl Edwards to 373 points with eight races remaining in the season. Kyle Busch is third, now 583 points behind.

Trevor Bayne finished third, matching his best finish of the season, followed by Ricky Stenhouse Jr. and Reed Sorenson.

In the third race of the season run

with what will be the new series cars next season, Harvick led the first 109 laps, then retook the lead with just over 50 to go.

A caution shortly thereafter sent all the leaders to pit road, and while it took Harvick a few laps to get by cars that had stayed out, the stop was a disaster for Kyle Busch.

Seeking a record 11th victory of the season, Busch seemed in solid position to make a late challenge. But after leaving pit road, he had to return, apparently because a nozzle broke off the fuel can and was still in the car as he drove away. The return trip to his pit dropped him from third in the field to 20th, and he wound up ninth.

Harvick led 170 of the 250 laps and won for the fifth time in his career at Richmond, tying Mark Martin for the series lead on the 0.75-mile oval.

Harvick also became the third driver to win in next year’s car. Dale Earnhardt Jr. won the first at Daytona, and Keselowski won last month at Michigan.

The starting spot is especially important for Bowyer, who holds down the No. 12 spot in the standings and needs only to finish 28th or better to secure a spot in the Chase.

While having fun on the track, Edwards does have the opportunity to improve his Chase position, as do all the others already locked into the 12-driver field for the title push.

Each victory is worth 10 bonus points when they reset the field for the playoffs.

“I think they key for us is just to go out and win a race,” Edwards said. “While the pressure is off, you can go out and take risks and you can race harder, and I think sometimes you get a chance to perform really well when that pressure is off.

Hopefully with this good pit stall and good starting spot, we maybe get a win and get those 10 bonus points.

“That’d be huge. That’s just what we need to start the Chase.”

Montoya, Allmendinger and Reutimann have no such Chase concerns, all having missed the top 12.

But Allmendinger said his run was the product of hard work for his team on finding a way to improve how well they adapt to practicing during the day and qualifying at night.

“That is probably the thing we struggle with the most in these races,” he said.

Among the 10 locked in Chase performers, leader Kevin Harvick will start 20th, No. 2 Jeff Gordon will start 22nd and third-place Kyle Busch will roll off from the 32nd spot.

Local favorite Denny Hamlin will start 14th.

West’s Daishion Barger (4) holds onto the ball in the end zone after scoring the game’s first touchdown.

WEST FROM 1C West’s defense has allowed one score all season, and its offense has turned the ball over just once.

That combination is hard to beat.

“We had the worst offensive showing we’ve ever had,” Salisbury coach Joe Pinyan said quietly. “So many plays, one more block for Romar (Morris) or one more second for John to see a receiver, and maybe we get it going. But we just missed too many blocking assignments.

The other part of it is that West is really, really good.”

The Hornets (2-2) trailed only 7-0 in the third quarter when Gbunblee made his vital play. Up to that point, the Hornets’ defense had performed so well it appeared Salisbury had a legitimate chance to knock off the Falcons.

“Our defense had a lot of fire tonight,” Salisbury safety Darien Rankin said.

“We played pretty good, but we made mistakes we need to learn from.”

Given a short field, West scored easily the first time it had the ball. Experienced quarterback B.J. Sherrill took what the defense offered, and the Falcons moved 48 yards in eight plays. Sherrill’s 9-yard rocket to sprinter Daishion Barger made it 6-0, and Bertin Suarez added the first of his four PATs. After that, both defenses settled in and dominated. Salisbury managed a meager 37 yards of offense in the first half and one first down. Still, the Hornets’ defense — led by Rankin, Tre

jon c. lakey/SALISBURY POST

West coach Scott Young motivated his team before kickoff.

Jackson, Scott Givens and Kavari Hillie — wouldn’t let the Falcons pull away.

“I expected a very tough game, and that’s what it was,” West coach Scott Young said. “We had to come back down from a good performance at Davie. On the other hand, Salisbury doesn’t lose many and they were coming off a loss.

We knew we’d get their best shot.

They’re fast, they’re athletic and this is a very big game for all their kids.”

West’s first possession after the second-half kickoff was stopped, but Kelly Miller’s punt was downed at the Salisbury 1. The Hornets were trying to fight out of that hole when Gbunblee intercepted Knox’s pitch for his touchdown.

“It looked like we were going to have a good play there,” Pinyan said. “We had the edge sealed, but we had a sophomore guard miss a block on a real good player, and then Gbunblee made a play.”

Salisbury moved the ball in the second half, but West always made a fourthdown stop when it needed one.

After Troy Culbertson and Quentin Sifford stopped Knox on a fourth-and 4 keeper from the West 30 late in the third, Sherrill directed a drive that put the Falcons ahead 21-0. He flipped the 40th TD pass of his career to tight end Patrick Hampton from the 5 to finish the drive.

“We didn’t change much at halftime, but we executed better in the second half,” Sherrill said. “The big boys upfront got rolling a little bit more.”

West’s Trey Shepherd and Terrence Polk stifled a fourth-down sweep by Morris on the sideline to stop the Hornets at the West 26 early in the fourth.

Trey Mashore returned a punt by Knox to the Salisbury 32 to set up West’s final TD on an 18-yard burst by Dinkin Miller. That run with 4:33 remaining pushed Miller over 100 rushing yards.

“Our pride got hurt a little bit with those last two scores,” Pinyan said. “But our kids and our fans need to understand that we did get a lot better tonight. We have to look at the positives.”

West’s defense held Morris to 46 rushing yards and Knox to two completions.

“Salisbury’s got athletes who can score from anywhere on the field, but we didn’t give up a big play,” Young said.

“The plan was to make them snap it eight or nine times, hoping they’d have a penalty, a bad snap or a turnover.”

Salisbury quarterback John Knox is surrounded by Falcon defenders, including Maurice Warren (90).

GALLAGHER FROM 1C “I’ve talked to him,” Morris said. “He said everything’s going to be fine. It was a just a little misunderstanding with a couple of players, but it’s probably not going to affect the whole team.”

• Other schools see their opening and are on the attack. You can’t blame them.

With a 4.3 40 and a high national ranking among this year’s seniors, Morris was in demand before deciding on UNC. His final two choices came down to North Carolina and Georgia Tech.

“They were telling me about how their school is a great school and I should come there,” Morris said.

His response?

“I was telling them I’m going to stay committed to the school I picked,” Morris said. “It’s still solid with UNC.” With a shrug, he added, “If something does happen, I’ll talk it over with my parents.”

Romar Morris.

Darrien Rankin

Salisbury coach Joe Pinyan was asked if he had been counseling his two stars.

“Nothing’s happened,” Pinyan said. “There’s been a lot of investigation, but nobody’s said anything about doing anything wrong. I don’t know if there’s anything to counsel them about.”

Pinyan said Douglas even

paid a visit to the Salisbury campus Friday.

“With them being off this week, the coaches are visiting their recruits,” Pinyan said. “I respect them for coming to see our kids.

They’ve got a job to do.”

However, Pinyan said the controversy hasn’t affected his two stars. They’re both playing well after three games, despite the Hornets’

1-2 record after Friday night’s loss.

• In fact, Morris and Rankin seem more interested in talking about the Tar Heels’ performance against LSU than the NCAA probe.

UNC was down 30-10 in the fourth quarter.

“It was a pretty good comeback,” said Rankin, who was glued to the TV set.

“If they had their 13 players they didn’t have, the game wouldn’t have been close at all,” Morris said.

Morris enjoyed seeing his future teammates playing under the bright lights of national television.

“I can see me on TV,” he said with a wide grin. “Hopefully, next year.”

“I can’t wait until I get up there,” echoed Rankin.

And Pinyan loves that loyalty.

“I think any time you tell somebody you’re committed, you ought to be committed,” he said.

CARSON FROM 8C

Mark McDaniel, who spent most of the night at quarterback, made a good gain on a busted play that opened the next series, but he fumbled at the end of it. Robinson recovered at South’s 35 and scored again two plays later on a 47-yard run by Troy Parker.

McDaniel fumbled the snap on the next offensive play but recovered. However, the shotgun snap on second down went over his head and jon c. lakey/SALISBURY POST into the end zone, forcing Several players had trouble with cramps, including South star South to boot it out the back Mark McDaniel, on ground. and take a safety.

Less than six minutes into the half, South trailed 30-20.

“Those are things that you have to be able to fight through and overcome, and our kids are learning,” Rollins said.

“They’re learning how they’ve got to come through something like that and keep fighting.”

The Raiders’ offense drove inside the Robinson 20 on the next possession but dropped a lateral and turned it over.

South got a break when the Bulldogs fumbled the ball back two plays later, and McDaniel scored on a 12-yard run to make it 30-26 early in the fourth quarter.

Robinson (2-1) fumbled again on its next series, with South’s Bubba McLaughlin recovering at the Raiders’ 25.

But South returned the favor when McDaniel lost the ball again. A 31-yard pass set up a 1-yard touchdown run, pushing the Bulldogs’ lead back to 10.

McDaniel was then shaken up on the following possession, jon c. lakey/SALISBURY POST and South stalled on downs Mark McDaniel had a busy night running, throwing and with just over four minutes left. receiving the football.

Robinson ripped off two long touchdown runs in the last 31⁄2 minutes to pull away.

“They gashed us,” Rollins said. “We tried to make some adjustments to slow them down, and we were just allowing things to happen in the middle that shouldn’t happen.

Youth is probably a part of it, but you have four games under your belt now and the youth thing should be going out the door.”

Robinson’s smash-mouth ground game totaled 316 yards, almost all of which were straight up the middle on simple handoffs to Parker.

The tailback finished with 189 yards.

“We made our mind up that we were going to run it at them and we were going to pound them because we felt like we were a little deeper and didn’t have as many people going both ways,” Robinson coach Bobby Cloninger said.

After spotting Robinson a 7-0 lead thanks to a long re-

times were mostly unavailable because North’s scoreboard wasn’t working.

The Cavaliers started the next series at their 43, and Starks went across the middle to catch a second-down pass at the Lexington 39. He outran the defense and reached the end zone for the second time this season.

The Yellow Jackets accounted for the next three TDs to claim a 26-6 lead. They forced a three-and-out following Knotts’ kickoff return, then capped a 64-yard drive with Challenger’s 8-yard scoring pass to Quandarious Crump.

“I explained to them at halftime that the most important part of the game was going to be the first few minutes of the second half,” Lexington coach Joe Gaddis said. “We

came out and returned the opening kickoff for a touchdown, played good defense immediately and turned the tide of the game right then.”

Kornell Cook’s second pick gave North possession at its 19 in the closing minutes of the third quarter, and Pierre Givens won a footrace over the last 65 yards of an 84-yard touchdown pass from Allen.

That score drew the Cavs within 26-12, and Cameron

Mallett intercepted a pass on the second play of Lexington’s next series.

K.B. Horton posted two of his four sacks to help shut down that North possession.

Six of the Yellow Jackets’ sacks came in the final 15 minutes, and those losses contributed to North’s total of minus-47 yards on the ground.

“The passing game for us is maybe ahead of schedule compared to what we thought it might be with a sophomore quarterback, but we still have to find some running yards,” Fleming said.

“They pinned their ears back and came. I thought until midway through the third quarter (Allen) was still seeing the field, making good reads and getting rid of the football. As he got tired, obvi-

wanted to this week. And they were getting eight, nine people in the box so we had to throw it.”

West had a good chance to pull a touchdown back at the end of the first half on a drive that started with Anthony Rebello's interception at the Carson 29.

James McCandies completed passes to Joseph Varner and Jake Walser, and with six seconds remaining, Walser caught a deflected pass right around the goal line.

Walser's feet were in, but unfortunately for West, the ball never broke the plane.

“Jake Walser makes a great play, he just happens to not get in the end zone,” Barnes said. “His feet were, but the ball never got there.”

West nearly recovered an onside kick to start the second half, but Carson took the ensuing possession 59 yards, ending with Warren's 2-yard touchdown run.

Later in the third, Austin Teague picked off Gragg in the end zone and Taylor Beck grabbed an interception deep into Dragon territory.

But early in the fourth quarter, Warren punched it in from 3-yards to cap off Carson's scoring on the night.

The Carson defense, led by the defensive line of Ryan Shoaf and company, helped the Green Dragons to 139 yards rushing.

Nick Martin and the defensive backfield did a good job against McCandies. West Davidson managed just 77 yards through the air.

But that’s how the Green Dragons scored.

With 2:20 left to play, Jordan Cameron stretched to catch a McCandies pass in the front-right corner of the end zone to put West on the scoreboard.

“Our defense has been playing well all year,” Woody said. “We'd like to have some shutouts but that's a good team. But give credit where it's due — that kid made a heck of a catch.”

Carson travels to J.M. Robinson next week, while West Davidson goes on the road to Ledyard.

“We're going to go up to this practice field and go to work,” Barnes said.

“I thought our kids played hard, played well.

Not a great night offensively, but Carson had a lot to do with that.”

E a s t played much better without the ball, though not initially. On the second play from MORGAN scrimmage Hickory Ridge running back Brian Baltimore slipped into the secondary and raced 50 yards to the East 20, capping a well-executed inside zone trap. Only a sprinting tackle from behind

by Wesley LeRoy prevented

Baltimore from scoring.

“We missed our assignments,” East defensive lineman Sam Sherman said.

“That’s why he broke free.

Otherwise he would have lost yards on that play.”

Six plays later Baltimore — a deceptively quick back who gained 142 yards on 24 attempts — bulldozed his way into the end zone with the first TD. “He has lots of power and lots of speed,” Paxton said.

“People don’t think he’s as fast as he is. He’s compact — 5-7, 190. One time he’ll run

you over, and the next time he’ll run around you.”

Baltimore was back at it in the third quarter when he ripped off runs of 21 and 22 yards. He scored his second touchdown on a 1-yard plunge midway through the period.

“Once we started hanging our heads, it was all downhill,” Sherman said. “I thought the defense was bad. We know we can do better. I’m not gonna stand here and say it was amazing because it wasn’t.

Just look at the scoreboard.”

Tedder was actually pleased with East’s defensive

play, particularly a goalline stand in the waning moments when quarterback Jason Eury and Baltimore SHERMAN were both wrestled to the turf inside the 1-yard line.

“The defense was on the field practically all night,” Tedder said. “On that stand (Hickory Ridge) ran their bread-and-butter plays. I pulled them off the field and

said, ‘That is how you win ballgames.’ ” East’s most glaring weakness remains its offense, but at least Blalock mustered some postgame encouragement.

“It’s nothing that can’t be fixed,” he said. “We just have to get better. That’s all there is to it.”

• NOTES: Blalock was East’s leading rusher with 43 yards, mostly on broken plays when he was forced to take off. He threw an interception early in the fourth quarter.

Nathan Lambert’s 14-yard touchdown on the first play of the second quarter made it 14-7.

After Robinson tied it, sophomore Dominique Garlin scored on scintillating 49-yard catch-and-run on a third-and-31 play that gave the Raiders the lead back.

“With Dominique and Mark and Ricky in there, they can move the football well.”

The Raiders just need to hang on to it.

Davie offense comes alive

First downs rushing yardage passing yardage passing (c-A-i) punting Fumbles-Lost penalties

Herndon throws three TD passes, runs for another WATSON

BY BRIAN PITTS sports@salisburypost.com

MOCKSVILLE — Davie’s football 41 team must Davie 27 h a v e G. Rose watched all six Rocky movies before Friday’s game against visiting J.H. Rose. For the War Eagles staged as outrageous a turnaround as maybe any team ever has from one week to the next.

One week after an abysmal 40-0 loss to West Rowan, the winless War Eagles (1-3) turned a corner with a stunning 41-27 nonconference win over unbeaten Rose (3-1). Now there’s an air of renewed enthusiasm at Davie.

“As coaches it’s been hard to keep the kids believing,” Davie coach Doug Illing said.

“We told them: ‘You’re tried and t e s t e d .

You’ve been through the wars and battles. It’s not going to be HERNDON any tougher. not Let’s stick our toe in the water and see if the water’s cold. Let’s dive in. Let’s go all-in, lay it on the line and play like we’re supposed to.’ And that’s what they did. They fought hard and made plays to go ahead.”

At halftime, with the Rampants leading 21-9, Davie appeared headed for the first 04 start since 1990. Then came a rally fueled by emotion and guts. Alex Newman put on as close to a one-man perform-

ance as you’ll see, igniting the charge with a 54-yard TD on a fake punt. Then Newman scored on a two-point play as Davie closed the gap to 21-20.

Earlier, Newman completed a 26-yard throw on a reverse pass. Newman blocked an extra point. He made a handful of tackles on special teams.

He deflected passes. He was simply everywhere.

But the fake punt changed everything.

“Alex was all over the field, sideline to sideline, making plays and even throwing a pass,” Illing said. “He’s a playmaker. What else can you do?

We could have probably put him at center.”

Anthony Ressa recovered a fumble at the end of a 17yard run by Rose star Marquis Gorham, and five plays later Davie had the lead. Car-

son Herndon, who played the game of his life with 243 passing yards, completed a 32-yard fade to Joe Watson, who came alive with six catches for 136 yards. Instead of kicking for the tie, Illing summoned Jacob Barber for a two-point play. Barber faked an inside run and threw to Watson for a 28-27 lead with 9:46 to go. Illing was a riverboat gambler all night.

Davie’s defense, which gave up one third-down conversion all game, got a threeand-out. Two plays later, Herndon hit Watson at the Davie 40 and Watson raced 75 yards for a 34-27 lead with 7:26 left.

Nigel Rainbow, who rushed for 88 yards, fumbled at the Rose 16. That’s when Davie delivered the dagger.

NEWMAN

Herndon threw his third TD to Darius Wilson for the 41-27 final.

Herndon’s 17-of-27 passing without an interception helped lead a second half that was pure magic. A Davie team that had scored three TDs and 20 points in three games scored 21 points in the fourth alone.

Of course, having Jared Barber back at linebacker after a week out made an enormous impact.

“We’ve just got to continue to keep fighting, plugging away and working hard,” Illing said amid postgame pandemonium. “It hadn’t been a lack of effort and lack of hard work. It just had been a lack of execution. So hopefully we’re going to gain a lot of confidence from this.”

AssociAted press

Brett Favre reacts after failing to make a first down. and Harvin’s migraines kept him out of numerous practices in August, but these things happen when quarterbacks and receivers spend seven months apart.

In the fourth quarter, Favre faced a key third-and11, and Camarillo broke open for what should have been a first down. Favre threw a bounce pass that would make Ricky Rubio proud.

“We have to get better, and we will,” Favre said. “...

You can’t miss open guys.”

In the NFC title game, the Vikings shredded the Saints defense for 475 yards, failing to score more than 28 points only because of silly turnovers. The Saints defense ranked 25th in yards allowed in 2009, and was missing star safety Darren Sharper on Thursday.

Favre completed 15 of 27 passes for 171 yards and one touchdown with an interception, failing to expose the Saints’ flaws and costing his team a victory.

“I missed on some of these throws, but everything felt fine to me,” Favre said.

“You can say in a couple of weeks those things will come back. This was the

first week, but it means a lot. ... I came in as prepared as I could be. I can promise you that.”

That sounds like another Favre Fib. There is little doubt Favre prepared himself as well as he could in the week leading to the Saints game.

There is little doubt he could have spent more time with his teammates during the offseason, or in Mankato.

“It’s obvious we could be a lot better,” Favre said.

“Last year in the playoffs, I thought we played as good as we could have played. ...

We didn’t score as many points as we did last time, but there was a lot of potential out there tonight.”

Favre’s right — the offense will improve, especially if Adrian Peterson keeps running with power while holding on to the ball.

The Vikings’ biggest problem Thursday: Their most important player stunk when they needed him most.

We’ve all assumed that the gray fuzz on Favre’s face was stubble. Thursday night, we had reason to believe it was oxidation.

Bears banking on former Panther Peppers LAKE FOREST, Ill. — For three years, he had an upclose view of Julius Peppers, and still, there are times Chris Harris can’t believe his eyes.

Maybe it’s a hit. Maybe it’s a burst of speed. Maybe it’s both.

“I still find myself in practice, like, wow,” said Harris, a safety in his second go-around with the Bears after three seasons in Carolina. “Every once in a while, just saying ’wow.”’

The Bears certainly were going for the wow factor when they lured the fivetime Pro Bowl defensive end away from Carolina with a six-year deal worth potentially $91.5 million, including $42 million guaranteed. No team made a bigger move in free agency. And, maybe, no team needed one more than Chicago.

After all, the Bears went 7-9 and missed the playoffs for the third straight year, leaving many fans calling for coach Lovie Smith and general manager Jerry Angelo to be fired. Now, with

“He’s a great athlete,” Urlacher said. “He’s a phenomenal football player. He knows things out there. He sees things happen before they happen. And it’s going to be fun to play behind him.”

Peppers insists he doesn’t feel any added pressure.

Penn State’s freshman QB faces mighty Alabama Associated Press

The Top 25 ...

TUSCALOOSA ,Ala. — Alabama’s front-runner status for a repeat national title, and survival of a big game without DE Marcell Dareus and probably injured Heisman Trophy winner Mark Ingram.

Penn State could prove it belongs among other Big Ten contenders such as Ohio State and Iowa with an attention-getting upset.

Penn State freshman QB Rob Bolden against a Nick Saban defense that could bombard him with blitzes from all sorts of places and try to force him into mistakes.

Then again, Alabama’s secondary is young, too, and had some breakdowns against San Jose State.

“I think these are the kinds of games that players who are great competitors certainly look forward to playing in,” the Tide’s Saban said. “I think Penn State probably has as fine a team as anybody in the country, I really do believe that.

“It’s the kind of games that define who you are.”

Saban & Co. will have to find someone else to try to harass Penn State freshman quarterback Rob Bolden, if the nearly 102,000 fans can’t do it.

Bolden is the first freshman quarterback to start for Penn State in 18 years, and he’s making a big leap from the opener against Youngstown State.

“Bolden isn’t going to beat Alabama by himself,” Paterno said.

“Bolden’s got to go down there and do the job that he can do — be careful with the football, don’t do stupid things. Understand we’re going to have a lot of adversity.

And go from when we play them next week and see what we can get done play after play. I mean, it’s a football game, not the Crusades.”

No. 12 Miami (1-0) at No. 2 Ohio State (1-0), There are still reverberations from Ohio State’s stunning 2OT victory over the top-ranked Hurricanes in the 2002 national championship game, although most of the current players were in elementary or middle school at the time.

WINSTON-SALEM — Wake Forest’s matchups with Duke during the past decade have had quite a few things in common.

They’ve been mostly competitive. They’ve been entertaining.

And they’ve all been won by the Demon Deacons.

Wake Forest looks for its 11th straight win over the Blue Devils today in a meeting of unbeaten-butunproven teams coming off lopsided wins over inferior competition, one team will look to maintain the status quo while the other hopes to reverse that pesky trend.

“We know Duke has always given us hard games.

Very hard,” Wake Forest safety Alex Frye said. “I don’t think we’ve ever just ran away from Duke, and I know Duke wants this just as bad as we do.”

Frye said beating Wake Forest must be at the top of the Blue Devils’ list as he notes the Durham school has not been to a bowl game since 1994 and have not beaten Wake Forest since 1999.

Sometimes during the current 10-game streak, it’s hard to tell if Wake Forest (1-0) always seems to find a way to win — or if the Blue Devils (1-0) always seem to find a way to lose.

Of the Demon Deacons’ five straight wins at BB&T Field, four were decided by three or fewer points.

The current fifth-year seniors were true freshmen in 2006 when the Demon Deacons blocked a field goal as time expired to escape with a 14-13 win. Two years ago, the Blue Devils wound up losing 33-30 in overtime.

“There’s no hiding behind rivalries and streaks,” Duke coach David Cutcliffe said.

“And 10 in a row is a streak, a pretty serious one. You can’t run. You have to accept it.”

ORLANDO, Fla. — As Central Florida junior receiver A.J. Guyton sat and watched Boise State defeat Virginia Tech on Monday night, he kept thinking back to the impact that his Knights’ upset of North Carolina State had three years ago.

That victory — a 25-23 UCF win to open the 2007 season — propelled the Knights to their finest season in school history and eventually a Conference USA title and a berth in the Liberty Bowl.

Like Boise State, UCF is non-automatic qualifier to the Bowl Championship Series and an outsider looking to play its way into the national picture. UCF (1-0) is well aware that tonight’s rematch against NC State (1-0) in Orlando is another chance to make a statement about its legitimacy as a rising program.

Like many UCF seniors, the stunning 2007 opener is still fresh in the memories of several NC State players.

Owen Spencer, who caught four passes for 92 yards last week in N.C. State’s 48-7 opening defeat of Western Carolina, was shocked at how UCF jumped on the Wolfpack in what was his first collegiate game.

“I was excited coming out of the tunnel and seeing all the fans screaming for us and everything like that,” said Spencer, who’s now a senior.

“First snap, they take it 80 yards. It took a lot of wind out of our sails.”

Tonight’s game will likely play out with either N.C. State quarterback Russell Wilson or UCF’s Rob Calabrese becoming the factor.

Wilson showed no rustiness following a stint playing minor league baseball, throwing for 306 yards and four touchdowns last week against Western Carolina.

CLEMSON, S.C. — Clemson has one more tune up before the real season starts.

While the Tigers’ game today against Presbyterian counts, it’s one of the most obvious mismatches Clemson has played in years — at least on paper. The Tigers have never lost to a Football Championship Subdivision team and Presbyterian has the longest current losing streak in the lower level of Division I at 15 games.

Clemson coach Dabo Swinney certainly won’t admit to looking past the Blue Hose to a trip next week to No. 21 Auburn. But he didn’t touch much on Presbyterian when talking to reporters this week, instead focusing on the problems he wanted to correct after the season opening 35-10 win over North Texas.

The biggest problems are on defense. North Texas gained 462 yards, 39 more than the Tigers, and had the ball for nearly 42 minutes.

Clemson defensive coordinator Kevin Steele called his unit’s performance “unacceptable” several times and promised to improve communication and tackling.

On the offensive side, Swinney wasn’t happy with receivers who cut off their routes too quick and even said quarterback Kyle Parker threw a couple of bad passes.

If there ever was a week to improve, this might be it. Presbyterian hasn’t won a road game since October 2007. The Blue Hose are allowing 40 points and 474 yards a game during their 15 game losing streak.

The teams haven’t played in more than five decades, putting the series on hiatus after spending 28 years of season openers. Even back then, it was lopsided. The Tigers have won the last 14.

LAWRENCE, Kan. — Kansas offensive lineman Brad Thorson and Georgia Tech coach Paul Johnson see eye-to-eye on one key aspect of their game on Saturday.

Whether Kale Pick or Jordan Webb quarterbacks the Jayhawks is not as important as the overall execution in the game between the No. 15 Yellow Jackets and the reeling Jayhawks, who in three whirlwind days lost their season opener, a huge chunk of self confidence and their athletics director.

Webb, a redshirt freshman, was named the starter this week. He will replace Pick, a sophomore who struggled in a shocking IOWA STATE 6-3 loss on Saturday to North Dakota State. But Pick, who won the job in a close competition during spring and fall practice, will be at the ready if Webb falters.

“They’re both young guys,” said Thorson, the Jayhawks’ senior right tackle. “They’ve got very little experience. That means we need to be able to run the ball, the receivers need to be open and the quarterback needs to feel comfortable in the pocket.”

Johnson insisted that his Yellow Jackets (1-0) were not losing any sleep worrying about whether Jayhawks coach Turner Gill would make a switch or not.

“That doesn’t change anything,” he said. “We get ready to play the schemes and the system.

I think that’s a myth and way overrated that teams get ready for certain people. There are very few people who play college football that people are afraid of. You get ready for a scheme or a certain offense or whatever.”

A bigger problem for Kansas may be a Georgia Tech offense that ran for 372 yards last week in a 41-10 dismantling of South Carolina State.

GREENVILLE — Ruffin McNeill will have a hard time topping his debut game at East Carolina. Then again, the firstyear coach knows his team will be in even better position with another Conference USA victory today.

After beating Tulsa on a last-play touchdown pass, the Pirates (1-0) could become the first team to move to 2-0 in league play by beating Memphis on Saturday.

While it’s early, that fast start could help the Pirates as they pursue a third straight league title despite going through a coaching transition and significant personnel losses from last year.

“We have not accomplished anything yet,” McNeill said. “We’ve won one game. It was a great win for us. Now we have to put that game to the side.”

At least the Pirates learned a little more about themselves with the 51-49 win against Tulsa. Dominique Davis earned the starting quarterback job and threw for nearly 400 yards in the newly installed passheavy spread offense, though an overhauled defense struggled with its inexperience even as McNeill was satisfied with its effort.

East Carolina has had a slightly shorter week to get ready since the Tulsa game was on Sunday.

McNeill said the coaching staff is spending more time focusing on making their own players better instead of focusing on the Tigers (0-1).

“We’ve still got to go back to the drawing board, and nobody said it was going to be a perfect game,” defensive end Justin Dixon said.

East Carolina hasn’t had much trouble with Memphis in recent years. The Pirates have won four straight meetings, scoring at least 30 points.

COLUMBIA, S.C. — Call it the NCAA Distraction Bowl.

No. 22 Georgia (1-0) and No. 24 South Carolina (1-0) face each other today after a week of star suspensions, formal letters of inquiry and unending questions about NCAA infractions.

Bulldogs star receiver A.J. Green was docked three additional games by the NCAA on Wednesday for selling a game jersey for $1,000 to someone deemed an agent. A day later, South Carolina’s football program received a formal letter of inquiry that it was under NCAA investigation.

Gamecocks tight end Weslye Saunders has met with the NCAA already this summer, questioned about potential agent contact. He has been suspended from the team since Aug. 23, although coach Steve Spurrier says that is not related to the NCAA probe.

For a second straight week, that won’t be Green.

He was held out of Georgia’s opening week win over Louisiana-Lafayette because of eligibility concerns, although that didn’t stop Murray from connecting for 160 yards and three touchdowns in a 55-7 victory.

Saunders was the starting tight end entering fall, a 6-foot-6 senior considered a potential first-rounder in next spring’s NFL draft.

However, he was questioned by the NCAA in connection with possible contact with agents and his attendance at a South Beach party earlier this year.

There have been similar investigations at Alabama and North Carolina also linked to the party.

Saunders was among several players Spurrier asked to move out of a local hotel amid allegations of cheaper rates than available to the public, although the NCAA has not detailed the scope of its inquiry.

Saunders missed last week’s win over Southern Miss and has not practiced with the team for almost three weeks.

Baddour: UNC still waiting on player updates Associated Press

CHAPEL HILL — North Carolina athletic director Dick Baddour said Friday the school is still waiting to hear whether 13 players who missed the opener due to an ongoing NCAA investigation will return for next weekend’s game against No. 15 Georgia Tech.

“We’re working hard on a number of scenarios and I would repeat what I’ve said before: I’m hopeful

we’ll get some movement in some cases, but I just cannot guarantee it at this time,” Baddour said.

The 13 players — including potential NFL draft prospects Robert Quinn, Marvin Austin, Kendric Burney and Deunta Williams from a talented defense — didn’t travel with the team to face LSU in Atlanta last week due to the inquiry into agentrelated benefits and possible academic misconduct.

The Tar Heels nearly rallied from

a 20-point deficit in the fourth quarter, driving all the way to the LSU 6 in the final seconds before missing on two passes into the end zone in the 30-24 loss.

The school has been conferring steadily with the NCAA about the players’ status over the past two weeks. North Carolina is off this week, giving the school more time to get answers.

The day before the LSU game, the school said it had declared Austin,

Quinn, Burney, defensive end Michael McAdoo, cornerback Charles Brown and receiver Greg Little ineligible “for violating school and/or NCAA rules.”

Another six players — top tailbacks Shaun Draughn and Ryan Houston; safeties Brian Gupton, Da’Norris Searcy and Jonathan Smith; and defensive end Linwan Euwell — were held out of the game as a precaution. Later that night, the school said Williams would also be

out because the NCAA wanted more information before ruling on his status.

It’s also possible that the academic concerns involving a tutor might go back a year or more, though Baddour has refused to say exactly when they might have taken place.

“We will go where the investigation takes us,” he said, “and if that’s where it takes us, then that’s where we would go.”

East struggling with offense

BY DAVID SHAW dshaw@salisburypost.com

GRANITE QUARRY — It’s less than a month into H. Ridge 14 the school year E. Rowan 0 and already East Rowan is having math problems.

The Mustangs netted only 87 yards and four first downs in a 14-0 loss to visiting Hickory Ridge on Friday night. Through four games their offense has produced only

three touchdowns.

“The frustration is there big-time — starting with me, the coaches, everybody,” quarterback Jamey Blalock said after East fell to 1-3.

“We all felt good coming in, but we just couldn’t put it together. It’s the same story as last week and the week before.”

Blalock was unable to ignite an offense that’s been parch-dry all season. East’s deepest penetration was Hickory Ridge’s 23, where a second-quarter fumble ended its

“We’re very limited with what we can do right now,” East coach Chad Tedder said. “We need to be multifaceted, and we’re not. And when we had opportunities to make a big play we just didn’t step up to the plate.”

Credit the Ragin’ Bulls (2-2) for hanging the “No Trespassing” sign in front of their end zone. Their deBLALOCK TEDDER fense seemed to confuse East and limited the hosts to two complete one scoring threat. Otherwise, the passes for 1 yard. The shutout was Mustangs spent most of the night lan- the first in the school’s four-year guishing on their own side of the field. history and the first suffered by

East since 2008.

“This was by far the best game we’ve ever played defensively,” Hickory Ridge coach Marty Paxton said. “I challenged our kids to be physical, to try to out-physical (East). We were a lot smaller than their OL, but we played with speed.”

Hickory Ridge also threw a curveball at East’s offensive linemen, routinely sending two or three linebackers to the line before snaps.

C o d y Clanton was the recipient of 171 of GRAGG Gragg's yards, and Ozzie Moore rushed for 125 yards for the Dragons. “ W e made some big plays,” C a r s o n CLANTON coach Mark Woody said.

“We're very fortunate. We've got some very good players out there. Good players make good coaches and good teams.”

West coach Dale Barnes said the Dragons knew they had a tough task, and 28 points notwithstanding, Barnes thought West defended well, intercepting three passes and forcing a fumble.

“We played much better on defense tonight than we've been playing,” Barnes said. “We were able to have a couple takeaways and we tackled pretty well against a dadgum good running back.”

On Carson's first possession of the game, Gragg rolled out but found Clanton in stride down the right sideline for a 38-yard touchdown.
