Council to discuss housing inequities
Totally into the outdoors
Staff report
The Salisbury City Council will take public comment Tuesday on a report that examines housing discrimination and obstacles to fair housing in the city and suggests remedies. The city commissioned the report by Isaac Heard, a consultant in planning and community development and a faculty member in the University of North Carolina at Charlotte geography department. Heard assessed potential areas of housing discrimination in the city as well as barriers to fair housing based on race, ethnicity, religion, gender and family status. Among the impediments Heard found and proposed actions: • Although black residents make up nearly 40 percent of the city’s population, they comprise as much as 90 percent of the population in some tracts nearest the central business district, and those tracts also have the city’s lowest income levels. Heard says this racial concentration doesn’t mean black residents have not been able to find housing elsewhere: There have been few reported incidents of housing discrimination anywhere in the city in the last 10 years, and he encourages Salisbury officials to remain vigilant in identifying and eliminating any discrimination that is reported. • The city has little affordable housing stock for low-income families. For those making $10,000 or less in household income, affordable housing demand is 462 percent more than available supply. For those making between $15,000 and $25,000, demand is 115 percent more than supply. Heard suggests the city work with banks and the Salisbury Community Development Corp. to expand existing affordable housing rehabilitation and construction programs and increase rent and house payment subsidies for families using more than 30 percent of their income to pay for housing. • Heard says an examination of 2008 data found “a noticeable gap” citywide between the number of home loans banks approved for white residents as opposed to minorities and that banks denied loan applications by minorities more often than whites. He suggests the city ask banks to look at their lending practices “to determine if there is a pattern and practice of discriminatory lending” or redlining — denying or increasing the cost of loans in certain areas — taking place in Salisbury. Among other obstacles the analysis found are that home ownership rates in minority communities are considerably lower than the citywide average; city ordinances don’t identify transitional or emergency housing as use classifications; the prohibitive cost of rehabilitating to the standards of new construction; the Fair Housing Committee of the Salisbury Human Relations Council hasn’t been active in addressing fair housing problems.
Frankie Walls aims high, does well in U.S. competition BY KARISSA MINN kminn@salisburypost.com
hen Frankie Walls goes hunting, he prefers to use his bow over his rifle. He doesn’t think using a gun is challenging enough. “I can stand here and shoot a deer half a mile away with a rifle with no problem,” he said. “There’s no skill in that.” Move within arrow range where the deer can hear and smell you — now, that’s a sport. Walls, of Woodleaf, placed 15th out of more than 2,000 participants in the 2010 Field and Stream Total Outdoorsman Challenge. He and his fellow competitors faced tests of their fishing, shooting, archery, ATV driving and other outdoor skills. Walls is company manager of Hendrix Farming and Drywall, where he has worked for two years. It was his boss, Randy Hendrix, who gave Walls his first bow and taught him how to shoot. “He’s a world archery champion,” Walls said. “He was kind of my sponsor.” Hendrix encouraged him to enter the Total Outdoorsman Challenge at a local Bass Pro Shop. Walls had never heard of the competition, but Hendrix had made it to the final 16 the year before. After shooting a bow, shooting a rifle and casting bait, Walls finished in the top 200 nationwide and qualified to compete in one of four regional events. The one he attended took place in Nashville during the CMA Music Festival. “It was pretty neat,” he said. “A lot of country music people came through and shot our course.” The top three qualifiers from each regional event join the top three finishers from the previous year and one wildcard in the national contest. Walls finished third, just making it to the seventh annual Field and Stream Total Outdoorsman Challenge, held Sept. 911 outside Springfield, Mo. The three-day event began with skeet trap shooting and rifle shooting. Walls felt confident in his skills after shooting about 2,000 shells of skeet, but he placed 14th in that event. “If you miss one clay — I missed two — you drop five or six spots, because they don’t miss,” Walls said. On the second day, Walls had to bass fish and shoot an archery course. “I missed one target,” Walls said, “but you can’t miss.” The third day of competition included flyfishing, ATV handling and an endurance challenge. One of the tasks of the endurance challenge was to build a fire with a striker, kin-

The goal was to burn through a piece of dental floss held up by two metal rods. Walls built a fire from the ground up, but he later found out that other contestants were piling up the kindling so that the cotton balls they lit were right under the piece of floss. “I was a rookie,” Walls said, shaking his head. “The other guys knew what to do ... Personally, I think you should have to build

It’s a great time.” The competition gave Walls some tangible rewards, too. He received $600 for qualify-

Poll: Those craving change now look to the GOP BY LIZ SIDOTI Associated Press
WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama’s winning coalition from 2008 has crumbled and his core backers are dispirited. It’s now Republicans who stand to benefit from an electorate that’s again craving change. Nearly two years after putting Obama in the White House, one-quarter of those who voted for the Democrat are defecting to the GOP or considering voting against the party in power this fall. Just half of them say they definitely will show up Nov. 2, according to an Associated Press-Knowledge Networks poll released two weeks before Obama’s first midterm elections. Yet in a reflection of broad dissatisfaction with politics, just as many people who backed

Republican presidential nominee John McCain are either supporting Democrats now or still considering how to vote. Still, McCain voters — to borrow Obama’s campaign rallying cry — are far more “fired up, ready to go.” Twothirds say they are certain to vote next month. It’s a wide enthusiasm gap that’s buoying Republicans, who are poised for big electoral gains, and worrying Democrats, who are seeking to hang onto majorities in Congress as well among governors. Obama’s party hopes its su-

perior get-out-the-vote operation, updated from his groundbreaking campaign, can overcome Republicans’ energized supporters to mitigate expected losses across the board. While no president can be expected to fully rally his supporters when he’s not on the ballot, the survey illustrates the wide scope of Obama voters’ disappointment with the president and his policies almost halfway through his first term — and two years before he’s likely to seek their backing again. “He’s not listening to the majority of the people who elected him. It’s like he’s ignoring his base,” said SaraSue Crawford of Jacksonville, Fla., who points to Obama’s health care overhaul law. She’s deciding whether to support Republicans in the hopes of “shaking

trust finally had victory! The weight literally started flying off. I was elated! When someone is truly trying it is disheartening not to see the results that should be awarded for their efforts. This has been years ago, and the weight is still off! So make sure you are doing the following: • Check your portions and calories. Just because you think you are eating healthy does not mean that you are eating the correct amount of calories. Include your drinks! • Make sure your intensity of your workouts is within your target heart rate. (Target Heart rate is 220 minus your age and should be at a minimum of 5560 percent and maximum of 90 percent.) Too many times people are exercising and not getting their heart rate up high enough to burn more calories. • Be realistic. If it took you 20 years to get the weight on, don’t expect it to be gone in a month. One year can really change someone. Most people who succeeded will tell you that it took them one to two years to make the big changes. • Be patient! Don’t give up. You can do it! • • • Ester Marsh is associate executive and health and fitness director of the J.F. Hurley Family YMCA.

CLEVELAND — Walter and Pat Pence used an old-fashioned wood burning stove to cook pinto beans, cornbread and pumpkin pie Saturday under blue skies. The couple were one of eight demonstrators on hand to give people a glimpse into the past during Cleveland’s third annual Heritage Day Festival at the town park. The Pences aren’t sure how old the stove is, but they said they enjoy showing other people how food used to be prepared. Festival organizer Frankie AdkinsFleming said this is the first time the event has featured demonstrators. “We really want to keep this a different festival, where kids can learn things about our heritage,” she said. Children and adults were in awe as Paul Reavis showed off his seat-weaving skills and Timothy Weiss explained how he makes different types of cheese using milk from goats on his farm in Statesville. Reavis said he first learned how to weave seats back in his Boy Scouting days. The Eagle Scout, who resides in Statesville, didn’t practice the craft for years, but picked it up again about 27 years ago and has been doing it ever since. He said it’s become an art that few people know how to do and he enjoys showing off the skill whenever he can. Weiss said not many people know that you can make nearly every type of cheese from goat milk. He said it’s a common misconception that feta is one of the only cheeses made with the milk. Weiss, who now has four goats, started with just one that his family purchased as a pet. He started milking the goats about six years ago and makes cheese as a hobby. Adkins-Fleming said the day centered around the Scotch-Irish heritage because of the town’s visit from eight residents from Killyleagh, northern
A Salisbury home was destroyed Saturday after flames broke out around 10 p.m. Firefighters spent about 45 minutes controlling the fire at 1621 Bost St. in Sedgefield Acres, a neighborhood off North Long Street. Salisbury Fire Department Battalion Chief Chris Kepley said fire began on the kitchen stove, but the official cause is under investigation. Kepley said the house, owned by Sandra Jefferies, received about 30 percent fire damage to the kitchen and 50 percent smoke and heat damage throughout the structure. “That’s pretty significant damage,” Kepley said. No one was injured in the incident. Deborah Lineberger, director of emergency services for the HanfordDole Chapter of the American Red Cross, said Jefferies sought assistance Sunday. “We put her up in a hotel for two nights, and we did give her a small allowance for clothing and food,” she said. “Unfortunately, this was a homeowner who does not have insurance so she is going to have to find another place to live.” Lineberger said the Red Cross gave Jefferies referrals to the Salvation Army, Rowan Helping Ministries and Daymark Recovery Services. Kepley said the cost of damage to the house is unknown at this time. Rowan County tax records list the assessed value of the house and the land at $107,829. All four Salisbury stations and the Granite Quarry Fire Department responded to the scene Saturday. Contact Sarah Campbell at 704-7977683.

The upside of unemployment — lots of time for chores couple of times a year, my accumulated pile of horse manure has to be dealt with. Fall is a good time to put an ad in the paper that lets everyone know that I will load all they want for free. Five horses had made a bigger pile than usual this time, and it needs DAVID to leave be- FREEZE fore the winter comes. For clarification, the horses didn’t make the pile. They don’t care where they put the manure. No amount of training will help that. It’s up to me to scrape it
A
up and put in on the big pile. My job is to keep their barn looking good. This year, the free manure scenario is unusual. I am out of work for the first time in my life. So there is plenty of time to load trucks and trailers for the gardeners who come to the farm. Plenty of time to listen to their stories also. One guy lost a side plank on his trailer, but took a load anyway. Some fell off in my driveway. Another was the fiddle man recently featured in the Post. One more was my neighbor who lives in a big house in Davis Farms. He brought me okra and chestnuts, and told me that I should be charging for the manure. He said his neighbors don’t care much for horse manure.
Maybe I should charge, but there are other ways to save when you are out of work. In just a few weeks, I have learned all about the dollar stores. Some have more products than others, some have things that I am interested in, but all of them have good buys. It is great fun to leave with a bag that would have cost three or four times more in another store. Energy bars cost a lot less in the right dollar store. Clerks in a dollar store seem genuinely glad to see you. But there are more ways to save. I had no idea that I had five boxes of Suddenly Pasta in the cupboard. There were a couple of year-old pizzas in the freezer. It is time to use all that stuff up. I am also a fiend for saving
change. What better time to spend it? Did you know that the Coinstar works better at some Food Lions than it does at others? I have learned to combine trips to town. Four or five things can be done on the same trip. Start at one side of town, and work your way across. Go to Lowe’s with only a short list and stick to it. Stay away from Walmart. Biggest of all, celebrate the times that I get the mail and there are no bills. I met Bob Morgan the other day on Milford Drive while measuring a 5K course, and he was so happy when the same thing happened to him. Nothing makes for a better day than knowing you don’t have to write a check later. I’m spending my days do-
ing other things than giving away free manure. Since the YMCA laid me off, I have found lots of good ways to volunteer. Nothing is better than doing for others when you can, and it’s even more enjoyable when there are fewer time constraints. I am even more active physically, upping my running mileage and doing more farm work. There have been lots of jobs around the farm that just don’t get done often enough. One of them is painting the deck. I hate to paint, and I have a large deck. It usually only gets painted or stained when I get married again or some girlfriend thinks it needs doing. OK, so it has been painted a number of times. It took me two whole days this time,
and then it rained that night. The last of the hay is baled and ready for the winter. All the shrubs are trimmed, and the farm looks darn good. Leaves will be falling soon, though. Another way to make good use of time is to visit the unemployment office. I’ve never been out of work, and in fact I have never missed a scheduled day of work. I have found the folks at the EEOC office to be extra nice, and a little surprised when I dress up just a bit to go see them. I don’t think they get much of that. Frankly, I hope there is a good job out there soon so I don’t have to go see them much more. David Freeze lives in Rowan County.

Salisbury firefighters to wear pink shirts for cancer awareness City of Salisbury
Salisbury firefighters and station administrative staff will provide support for Breast Cancer Awareness Month by sporting pink Tshirts from Oct. 25 through Oct. 30, Chief Bob Parnell has announced. During the six-day event, pink breast cancer awareness shirts will replace the standard-issue gray T-shirts typically worn by firefighters while on duty. Aside from non-melanoma skin cancer, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have identified breast cancer as the most common form of cancer in women. Breast Cancer Awareness Month, founded by AstraZeneca in 1985, is an international health campaign that takes place in October of each year. The month-long campaign strives to increase breast cancer awareness while raising funds for research into its cause, prevention, and cure. Mayor Susan Kluttz said she and City Council are proud of Salisbury firefighters and their dedication and commitment. “Sadly, cancer affects everyone,” Kluttz said. “Each of us is aware of someone who has been affected by cancer and who has struggled with the diagnosis and treatment of this terrible disease.” Kluttz said it is admirable to see the firefighters’ support for this cause. “Our firefighters make a very powerful statement as they proudly pay tribute to breast cancer survivors, true heroes and an inspiration to us all.” The pink shirt idea initiated during a weekly staff meeting as names and concerns were added to a prayer list that is updated each week, according to Parnell.
“I realized that approximately 40 percent of those individuals on our prayer list were afflicted by some type of cancer.” BOB PARNELL Salisbury fire chief
“It is our habit to uplift and remember others throughout the community and to show our support through friendship, visits, cards, and prayers,” he said. “I realized that approximately 40 percent of those individuals on our prayer list were afflicted by some type of cancer. By joining other organizations across the nation and wearing pink, we are able to shine a light on breast cancer awareness while honoring cancer survivors, their families, and friends.” Parnell said the fire department is an active member of the city’s Relay for Life team and the pink T-shirt campaign is an another way to support a worthy cause. “Our Salisbury firefighters are proud to don pink as we salute the courageous women and their families so affected by this disease.” The firefighters will receive educational sessions this month designed to heighten awareness for breast cancer and to promote understanding for other types of cancer. Debbie Carter and Mary Knapp, co-founders of “Celebration of Life,” a local breast cancer support group, will provide instruction for firefighters on all shifts.

Red Cross blood donors have opportunities to give American Red Cross
For patients undergoing treatment for cancer, premature babies, organ transplant recipients and trauma victims, there’s something much scarier than Halloween ghosts and goblins — and that’s not having blood available when it’s needed. Volunteer blood donors are the primary source of blood used for transfusions, and the blood must be there before it is needed in order to save lives.

“I haven’t tried one or two serious cases over my career. I have tried a wide variety of the most serious and most complicated cases, year after year. I have stood up for crime victims, time after time. And particularly, I have stood up for our children. In deciding who has the most experience in protecting the citizens in this County, you have to compare the types of cases each candidate has handled and with what results. Sometimes you have to try the hard cases, win or lose, because it is the right thing to do. My record speaks for itself. I do not believe that you deal with heavy workloads by dismissing cases and plea bargaining them away. This office has consistently tried more cases before a jury than other offices in this State and has maintained one the lowest dismissal rates in the State. I have won countless jury verdicts that have been appealed to the North Carolina Court of Appeals and affirmed. Eight times, my cases have established new law, enabling prosecutors all over this State to use it to make their cases stronger and their prosecutions more successful.

CONCORD — J.M. Robinson High School, Mt. Pleasant High School and Central Cabarrus masonry students and instructors are joining forces to help lay the foundation for a Habitat House in the Magnolia Crossing subdivision. The house, sponsored by Wachovia, is the first joint effort by the schools. Construction will begin Wednesday, kicking off Habitat Cabarrus’ fall build schedule. Eight students and three instructors from the three high schools will work with Habitat staff and volunteers Wednesday and Thursday. The house will go up on Lot 21, Magnolia Crossing Circle. Habitat for Humanity Cabarrus County was established in 1989 and has built 123 homes. For information, visit http://habitatcabarrus.org.

Ireland. “We wanted to show what these people brought from their country to this country,” she said. “We thought it would be nice for the folks around here who don’t get to see these types of things very often.” Zena McAllister, one of the town’s visitors from Killyleagh, said she enjoyed watching Mt. Airy’s Carol Lowe as she sat tatting, a technique used to construct lace. “I hadn’t actually seen the tatting done before. We do a lot of crotcheting and knitting at home,” she said. “It was very different. The Irish visitors were transported to the festival in a trailer pulled by a tractor. The West Rowan High School JROTC and the Triad Highlanders, a Greensboro-based bagpipe band led the procession. McAllister said her favorite part of the day came as children participated in a candy scramble. About $100 worth of sweet treats were hidden underneath a pile of straw, and children dove in to find the candy. “I really enjoyed watching all of the children search through the straw,” McAllister said. “The whole day was really wonderful.” Fleming-Adkins said she was pleased with the large turnout, especially since the festival was competing with the NASCAR race in Charlotte and the State Fair in Raleigh. She said the town might consider changing the date next year to attract more people, as the festival continues

Wife likes intimacy, but only on Internet
Dear American Airlines, You and I have had a close relationship for nearly 20 years, and it has been mostly wonderful. In the beginning, as we were getting to know each other, I was OK being with herded to the back of coach as I worked hard to gain favor with you. The day that I reached fre25,000 MARY quent flier HUNT miles was a big deal for me. Wow. A free trip. But I wanted 50,000 miles for two free round-trip tickets. So I persevered. Finally, I made it. And you came through, as promised. My husband and I loved that vacation in New England with free airfare. I was hooked. I made sure that all of my trips were booked on AA. Over the years, we have logged nearly 1.5 million miles together. I thank you for my lifetime elite status. But things have changed. I haven’t seen an upgrade to first class in what seems like years. You are booking the flights to full; there is not an open seat. I enjoyed the food service in coach. It was edible and often quite good. When you discontinued that, I lived with nuts and pretzels for several years. You now charge $6 for those nuts. And something like $12 for a stale sandwich. No thanks. And $8 for a pillow and blanket? Oy. My husband and I recently enjoyed a vacation in South Carolina on frequent-fliermile tickets. We arrived, but our luggage didn’t. L-O-S-T two bags, everything we had brought with us. You told us the next flight in would be 24 hours hence, but we would be too far away for your delivery service. WHAT?!? Obviously, you forgot who I am. Million miler ... loyal flier ... Miss American Airlines. You found our bags and you delivered them outside of your delivery area, but only after I whined and carried on. I retain my lifetime elite status. But I have to warn you that my eyes have been wandering. In a few weeks, I’ll be flying to Massachusetts. On Delta.

Dear Amy: I share an office with a co-worker who started working at my company about two months ago. She is very sweet, and we generally coexist smoothly in our shared space, with one exception. Often when she writes she will whisper aloud to herself what she has just written, I assume to make sure it sounds right. This whispering is distracting. I prefer to work in relative quiet. Because we both interface with colleagues and clients throughout the day, I cannot get away with wearing headphones. Is there a polite way to ask her to stop doing this?

Dear Hurt: Even if your wife isn’t having an affair, your marriage has taken such a hit that you don’t even know how to talk to her about your very reasonable fears. Communicating is the most intimate act couples can share. Your wife already knows this, and she is proving it by pursuing intimate relationships outside of your marriage where the initial and pri-
mary point of contact is through words. You might change the dynamic between you by concentrating on yourself. Start by answering the questions, “What do I want from this relationship?” and, “What do I deserve?” Because she betrayed you so recently, the burden is on her to prove that she can be trusted. If she isn’t willing to do this, then you should not trust her. If she isn’t willing to conduct herself completely differently, you can expect to be asked to forgive her over and over again. A marriage counselor could moderate a discussion between you.

Dear Amy: About two years ago, my wife met a man over the Internet and had an affair with him. When confronted, she admitted the affair and broke it off. We worked on our relationship, but it isn’t as strong as it used to be. Now, two years later, I think she’s having (at least) an emotional affair with another man she met over the Internet. ASK He’s not loAMY cal, so it is unlikely that my wife would physically consummate the affair. I don’t have any concrete evidence that she’s having an affair, but how should I approach her about this? How many chances should I give her? I worry that if I forgive her again, she’ll just do it time after time. — Hurt

Caldwell is the president of Rowan Regional Medical Center.
Political rants are poisonous I feel compelled to respond to “Duped by Democrats,” which appeared recently in this section. I write not as a defense against the “charges,” such as they are, made against the national democratic party, but rather to decry a certain kind of letter that is of a piece with a certain kind of political “speech” that has become increasingly prevalent in the halls of government and in the public square. Call it a “rant.” In it, reason is usurped by insult and blame; argument yields to invective; and accusation substitutes for engagement. It is not speech that nourishes democracy, but the venom of demagoguery. It is politically poisonous and morally irresponsible. Of the many objectionable ‘claims’ made by the letter writer, most appalling was his description of the current administration as “genocidal” as related to a warning about the possible future rationing of healthcare. (By the way, one might consider that health care has been, in effect, rationed all along in that, in some measure, access to health care has been dependent on ability to pay for it). If one believes that the recent health care legislation is bad policy, then of course one has the right to say so and to explain why. Let’s talk, argue even, in regard to fact, reason and principles. But I do not care to hear someone simply vent their spleen, to cast their opponent in the worst possible light. This is not food for thought, but an invitation to a food fight. A responsible person would exercise the greatest care before

Still thirsting for a COLA
RCCC needs bond to grow health programs Rowan-Cabarrus Community College currently offers three programs to train healthcare workers in Rowan County – nursing, radiography and dental assisting. These are top-notch programs that do a superb job of preparing students for careers as healthcare professionals. While these three programs are great, they are not enough. RCCC needs to move quickly to develop and offer more health sciences programs. The demand for well-trained healthcare workers continues to grow. The college recognizes this opportunity and has identified potential programs in physical therapy assistant, occupational therapy assistant, dental hygiene, emergency medical science and health information technology as possible degree options if additional classroom and laboratory space were available. Rowan County residents can help RCCC develop these greatly needed programs and give themselves access to career training in high-growth fields by voting “yes” for the RCCC bond during the upcoming 2010 election. RCCC will use part of the $12 million bond, if approved by Rowan voters, to build a twostory addition to its North Campus health sciences building. This will provide the additional classroom and lab space RCCC needs to establish new allied health programs. Labor forecasts point to the healthcare fields as areas of significant job growth over the next decade. Rowan County healthcare providers, like Rowan Regional Medical Center, will need more well-trained workers in the future. Job growth in health care represents an opportunity for Rowan County residents, providing they get the necessary education and training. Let’s help ourselves by helping RCCC. Vote “yes” for the RCCC bond. Vote “yes” for more healthcare programs and more opportunities for Rowan County residents. — Dari Caldwell

pproximately 58.7 million Social Security recipients were left out in the cold, figuratively and literally, as a result of another year without a COLA increase in monthly benefits. What is COLA? Cost of living adjustment. What is the real cost of living? Seniors receive Social Security benefits averaging $1,072 per month. Can they live on that alone? Many seniors say not. Most of the blogs online have seniors conveying attitudes from “ho-hum, I expected this to happen” to belligerence and name-calling directed at the current administration. Yahoo News blog senior opinions ranged from cursing the bailout of banks, Wall Street and small businesses to “Hey, fellow seniors, tough it out. Don’t expect more from an economy and nation that are in the hole financially.” COLA came into being in 1975 and ended congressional decision-making on increases in Social Security benefits. In June 1975, COLAs were based on the annual increase in the Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPIW). The Social Security Administration bases the cost-of-living increase for the coming year on the inflation rate in the third quarter of the current year. The CPI must rise at least 3 percent to trigger a cost of living adjustment. The average COLA for the last 10 years is about 3 percent. The most recent COLA, a 5.8 percent increase in January 2009, has, in effect, offset the lack of an increase this January. If one divides 5.8 percent by 2, the result is 2.9 percent, close to the 10-year average. But does the lack of a COLA for 2010 (and now, 2011) actually average out for seniors who face rising costs for medical care, drug prescriptions and other necessities? Thirty-five years have elapsed since the Social Security Act authorized public assistance for single mothers, the blind, the disabled and the elderly. The intention was to protect workers from business downturns and to protect families from poverty should the breadwinner become too old to work or die. Controversy continues in defining our government’s participation in the social policy arena. The “New Deal” of 1935 has become the “No Deal” of 2010 and 2011. Yet, even as our economic troubles persist and more seniors fall into the poverty crack that Social Security was supposed to prevent, politicians quibble over even modest boosts in aid to seniors. The recent economic recovery package initiative (2009) gave seniors a “one time” bonus of $250. President Obama recently lobbied for another “one time” bonus payment of $250 that was blocked by Republicans and non-supporting Democrats. Here’s the basic math: $250 divided by 12 equals $20.83 per month for seniors. That’s an additional $.69 per day to purchase food, clothing, shelter, fuels, transportation fares, doctors’ and dentists’ services, drugs and other goods and services people need day to day. As expected, the CPI released Friday (Oct. 15) indicated that inflation has not been severe enough for seniors to get a COLA for 2011. But it’s not as if their cost of living is actually stable: The CPI figures showed increases across the board, including a 1 percent increase in food costs, 3.8 percent for energy, 3.2 percent for medical care and 15.5 percent for a used car or truck. How would another “one time” bonus payment help? While not a longterm solution, it would offer short-term relief. What's the answer for seniors? Political maneuvering and partisan controversy are not the answer. The cost-of-living crunch for seniors is only likely to worsen as more Americans lose their jobs. We all know that no job equals no Social Security contributions, which may equal reduced benefits for those who have not retired. Certainly, seniors need to understand that Social Security is supplemental income, to be used with other retirement programs and savings. But that scenario conflicts with the reality of disappearing pension funds, shrinking investment portfolios and low rates of return on savings. Clearly, Congress needs to take another look at the cost-of-living mechanisms. Meanwhile, fellow seniors, I predict more political wrangling and mid-term voter re-alignment efforts by Democrats, Republicans, Independents and now the Tea Party. This appears to suggest a new poverty group in America, and raises a question: Will the Tea Party serve COLA? • • • Sam Warlick is a retiree who lives in Salisbury.

Leave your bias at the door This is not a political endorsement. This is an endorsement for sanity. I’m hoping to grab the attention of a few brains in Rowan County and ask you to please, please, pretty please, leave your liberal or conservative agenda at the door. Please don’t vote based on party. Vote on the facts. If you’re a registered Republican but you believe a Democrat is a better fit for your community, then cast your vote for that candidate, and vice-versa as well! Don’t let political bias cloud your judgment. Democrat does not mean right and neither does Republican. So, for the sake of your family, community and the remaining bits of sanity lingering on the earth, I ask all of you to vote not for the party but the person. — Greg Hicks Salisbury
Who’s paying bill for political ads? If you’ve watched TV recently you’ve been bombarded by political commercials, night and day. Have you ever wondered who’s paying for them? For commercials sponsored by candidates the answer is available, although delayed, at www.fec.gov. For the others, not so. The old familiars, the two national party committees and the congressional election committees we can guess at, but not who their major contributors are. For all the others, nothing. But is it really important? Money is said to be the milk of politics, and in this modern age of television, candidates need a lot of milk. Those 30-second spots you see can cost more than $1,000 for each viewing! For the Charlotte area, that’s tens of thousands a day! Where does it all come from? Who’s paying the bill? Over half of the estimated $220 million spent so far came from semi-anonymous groups. Who are these secret groups? Try the Club For Growth, and ask them who’s paying for their commercials. Or Citizens For A Working America, but they don’t have a phone number on their website. Or the Commission on Hope, Growth, Opportunity. They all sound good, but when you try to find out who is paying the bills for their very
expensive TV campaigns, they get rather fuzzy, to say the least, and basically refuse to answer. Friday’s USA Today shows just how serious this is. Just five groups, including the National Party Committees, the US Chamber of Commerce and the Service Employees Union together have spent $105.5 million with more to come. There’s literally no way to tell how much the secret groups have spent, since they don’t have to report anything. If you think hundreds of thousands in secret financial campaign support doesn’t affect what politicians do and vote, you probably still believe in the tooth fairy. — John P. Burke Salisbury
Warren truly represents public True representative candidates go to the people they wish to represent. They knock on doors, attend public functions, and demonstrate their access for residents to ask questions and to voice concerns. They come from working or business backgrounds, rather than from government employment careers. They show the support they have enjoyed through those who enthusiastically work with them. They gather financial support in individual donations rather than from large groups. They understand issues which affect the lives of those they wish to represent, particularly in regard to taxes, job availability, property rights and education effectiveness. In public, they demonstrate keen awareness of details. Harry Warren has shown all these. His opponent has not. I will vote for Harry Warren for NC House of Representatives, District 77. — M.H.Clements Cleveland
Coates always puts county first I urge concerned voters to consider Lorene Coates once again for the state House. Lorene has served us well for many years, always making decisions with the welfare of her Rowan County constituents in mind. I am personally of the conservative persuasion, and she certainly fits into my idea of a state House representative for our county. I drive a special needs school
bus and have observed firsthand the roads’ improvements during the last few years. Lorene has given road improvements her undivided attention. We need a representative in Raleigh who is honest and has come up through the working class environment, who understands the needs and concerns of the average citizen, and most importantly is approachable. Lorene is willing to make those unpopular decisions when necessary and stand by those decisions. I have known Lorene most of her life and she has always been willing to serve her fellow man, always helping even when she knows they can’t return the favor. — Charlie Shuping Salisbury
Marshall, Turner will get my vote In the North Carolina Senate race, I’d like to endorse Democrat Elaine Marshall, who is on the side of Wall Street regulation. For North Carolina’s Sixth Congressional District, I’d like to endorse Sam Turner, who is on the side of the Consumer Protection Agency. In addition, I would like to endorse a straight Democratic vote in the Nov. 2 election. — Cody Yasinsac Kannapolis
Put probationers in uniforms, too I had the opportunity to attend juvenile court on Friday, Oct. 1. I witnessed a couple of cases where breaking probation was an issue. In today’s life, children have to wear uniforms to school to help control behaviors, and inmates wear orange clothing or they have to wear inmate vests to be recognized on the side of the road. I think that individuals on probation should have to wear a certain type of clothing as well. This is so the public will know and help the juvenile stay on the right track. Sometimes the parents are held accountable for a child’s actions, and the parent has already exhausted all their options. It takes a village to raise a child, and perhaps the same is true for those on probation. If the juvenile decides not to follow this one simple rule of wearing the certain clothing, they should not be given any more avenues to go down, only the one that leads to jail. — Ashlyn Vanhoy Rockwell

Top charities see billions less in donations WASHINGTON (AP) — A new ranking of the nation’s 400 biggest charities shows donations dropped by 11 percent overall last year as the Great Recession ended — the worst decline in 20 years since the Chronicle of Philanthropy began keeping a tally. The Philanthropy 400 report to be released today shows such familiar names as the United Way and the Salvation Army, both based near Washington, continue to dominate the ranking, despite the 2009 declines. The survey accounts for $68.6 billion in charitable contributions. An earlier report by the Giving USA Foundation found overall charitable giving declined 3.6 percent last year. That report included giving to private foundations and to smaller charities, while the Chronicle’s survey only includes top charities raising money from the public. “It shows that charities are really having a tough time, and this is some of the most
successful charities in the United States,” Chronicle Editor Stacy Palmer said. “Usually bigger charities are more resilient, so that’s the part that is still surprising.” The top charities may have taken such a hit as giving shifted to smaller, local groups and because people gave less money to arts and cultural groups, Palmer said. Plus, even though the recession has officially ended, unemployment remains high at nearly 10 percent nationally and the economy continues to sputter. The Salvation Army, based in Alexandria, Va., maintained its No. 2 ranking after the United Way, with $1.7 billion in contributions, despite a decline of 8.4 percent. “The only caveat is our Christmas was extraordinary,” said Major George Hood, the Salvation Army’s head of community relations.

Article questions Huckabee decision SEATTLE (AP) — Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee granted clemency to a violent felon who would later gun down four police officers even though his record in prison was filled with unrelenting violence and exploitation of other inmates, the Seattle Times reported Monday. A Times investigation into the early life of Maurice Clemmons found that Huckabee either ignored or wasn’t aware of Clemmons’ record in prison, and that the prosecutor and victims in Clemmons’ case were not consulted before the clemency decisions that led to his freedom. Huckabee, now a Fox News TV personality and a potential candidate for the Republican nomination for president in 2012, declined interview requests from the Times. But in a Fox News interview last year during the immediate aftermath of the slaying of the Lakewood officers, he understated Clemmons' criminal records and said prosecutors had failed to weigh in on the clemency petition. The state parole board had voted 5-0 in favor of Clemmons’ petition, citing his young age at conviction and the potential for support from a large family. Clemmons was shot to death by a Seattle police officer two days after four Lakewood police officers were shot to death at a suburban coffee shop on the Sunday after Thanksgiving.

NEWTOWN, Pa. (AP) — A suburban Philadelphia philanthropist who believes charity is a powerful incentive thinks he can help get Americans back to work, one donation at a time. Gene Epstein, 71, is promoting a $250,000 effort called Hire Just One, with plans to make $1,000 donations to charity in the name of businesses that hire an unemployed person and keep the worker on the payroll for at least six months. Epstein, who amassed a personal fortune through car sales and real estate investments, has set aside his money for the first 250 hires — and thinks thousands more jobs could be created if others took on his idea, too. “It’s an encouragement to businesses to not wait,” said Epstein, who thinks the incentive may be just enough to get small businesses over the hump to make a hire in tough economic times. “This becomes like an incredible stimulus program.” The idea came to Epstein at his sprawling home in suburban Bucks County last month. He said he hopes his program will encourage businesses in the region and beyond to make hundreds of thousands of new hires they wouldn't have otherwise made. More than 100 businesses have expressed interest, Epstein said.

PARIS (AP) — Saudi intelligence services have warned of a new terror threat from alQaida against Europe, particularly in France, Interior Minister Brice Hortefeux said Sunday. He said the warning of a potential attack by al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula was received “in the last few hours, few days.” European officials were informed that “al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula was doubtless active or envisioned being active” on the “European continent, notably France,” Hortefeux said during a joint TV and radio interview. “The threat is real,” he said on RTL-LCI-Le Figaro’s weekly talk show. The warning from Saudi Arabia is the latest in a series of alerts that have put French security forces and others in high-vigilance mode. On Sept. 9, Interpol, the international police organization, signaled an “Islamist threat on a world scale, and notably on the European continent,” Hortefeux said. That was followed by a Sept. 16 report of a woman suicide bomber who could take action in France — later judged not fully credible. Intelligence sources in North Africa also contacted France about a potential threat, as did the United States, he said. He said he had spoken at length with U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano. It was the first time a French official has offered details about potential threats since mid-September, when officials first publicly invoked the possibility that France could be a target of radical Islamist groups. “We must not overestimate the threat or underestimate
French government vows it won’t yield to strikers PARIS (AP) — President Nicolas Sarkozy was holding firm Sunday on his plan to raise France's retirement age to 62 with the government vowing to squelch efforts to block fuel after strikes fanned fears of a shortage. Strikers have blockaded a dozen French refineries and numerous oil depots in the last week as part of widespread protests of the government’s plan to end the near-sacred right to retire at 60, leading to a run on gas stations by motorists and concerns about fuel shortages at the country's main airport. “I won’t let the French economy suffer from a supply blockage,” Prime Minister Francois Fillon said. “The right to strike isn’t the right to stop access to a fuel depot. That’s an illegal action,” the prime minister said on the TF1 channel. Fillon spoke hours after unions vowed to do all they could to get Sarkozy to buckle and withdraw his plan or open up negotiations with them in the make-or-break period ahead of a Senate vote Wednesday on the package. Rail unions called for new transport strikes starting Tuesday to coincide with a sixth round of nationwide demonstrations, ahead of the Senate vote.
Merkel cites failure of multiculturalism BERLIN (AP) — Chancellor Angela Merkel’s declaration that Germany's attempts to build a multicultural society had “utterly failed” is feeding a growing debate over how to deal with the millions of foreigners who call the country home. Merkel told a meeting of young members of her conservative Christian Democratic Union that while immigrants are welcome in Germany, they must MERKEL learn the language and accept the country’s cultural norms — sounding a note heard increasingly across Europe as it battles an economic slump and worries about homegrown terrorism. “This multicultural approach, saying that we simply live side by side and live happily with each other has failed. Utterly failed,” Merkel said. Merkel’s comments were
met with applause by the more conservative members of her party, but some Germans in cosmopolitan Berlin argued Sunday she was out of touch with the country's daily life. “I think her statement is very black and white and does not reflect honestly the lifestyle people are living here,” said Daniela Jonas, a German setting up a flea market in the city’s diverse Kreuzberg district, where immigrants and native-born Germans live among each other. Germany and other European countries have grappled with the idea of themselves as immigration nations and Merkel has long been skeptical of the country’s attempts to build a multicultural society that includes its estimated 5 million Muslims. Many immigrants speak little or no German, work in low paying jobs or live off of government handouts at the same time the country faces an aging population and a shortage of highly skilled workers.

Freed American denies links to rebels TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — An Iranian-American businessman said Sunday he spent some of his more than two years in prison alongside protesters detained in Iran’s postelection crackdowns and praised his first taste of freedom as a blessing “no one can imagine.” Reza Taghavi, from California, was released Saturday after five rounds of unusual face-to-face talks between Iranian officials and his American attorney — a former U.S. diplomat who ultimately convinced authorities that his 71-year-old client had no links to a rebel group blamed for a deadly mosque bombing in 2008. Taghavi's 29-month detention drew far less international attention than the campaign to free three young Americans taken into custody last year along Iran's border with Iraq and accused of spying. But the conditions for release had clear similarities in apparent attempts to press Iranian grievances against Washington. Iranian officials required Taghavi to visit survivors of the mosque bombing in the southern city of Shiraz. Taghavi denies any ties to the suspected bombers, who Iran says receive support from the United States and other Western governments.

Rollins rips Giants Associated Press
PHILADELPHIA — This Roy was an 6 ace, and he Phillies 1 sparked a Giants big inning with a daring dash around the bases. Roy Oswalt pitched eight dominant innings, Jimmy Rollins drove in four runs and the Philadelphia Phillies beat the San Francisco Giants 6-1 Sunday night to even the NL championship series at one game apiece. A day after Tim Lincecum outdueled Roy Halladay in a marquee matchup of aces, Oswalt beat Jonathan Sanchez. The series shifts to San Francisco for Game 3 on Tuesday afternoon. Matt Cain
faces Philadelphia’s Cole Hamels, the 2008 World Series MVP. Even though he didn’t finish the outing, it sure was a complete game for Oswalt. He allowed one run and three hits, striking out nine. He also singled and scored a run after racing through a coach’s stop sign in the seventh. “I didn’t see it until I got halfway down the line,” Oswalt said of the sign. “I was hoping I would be able to get in there.” Cody Ross hit his third solo homer in two games for the Giants. Rollins busted out of a 1 for 15 postseason slump, going 2 for 3 with a bases-loaded walk and a bases-clearing double. Halladay followed up his

The mere mention Tim Lincecum vs. Roy Halladay stirred memories of the most anticipated pitchers’ duels of all time ó Koufax vs. Ford, McLain vs. Gibson and Catfish vs. Seaver, to highlight a few over the last 50 years. In an era when pitch counts often matter more than ERA, along came a matchup in Game 1 of the NL championship series that every fan from any age could appreciate. Halladay, fresh from throwing a no-hitter for Philadelphia in his postseaHALLADAY son debut, against Lincecum, who struck out 14 in a two-hit shutout for San Francisco in his first playoff appearance. Neither ace was at his overpowering

A look back at some of the most hyped pitching pairings in the past quarter century: • Roger Clemens vs. Dwight Gooden, 1986. They’d faced each other a few months earlier in the All-Star game, and now baseball’s most electric aces hooked up again in Game 2 of the World Series. Lean and mean, Clemens led the majors with a 24-4 mark for Boston, the same record Gooden posted the previous year for the Mets. Shea Stadium was pulsating that October night as expectations built, but the duel never developed. Coming off a dominant effort against the Angels in Game 7 of the ALCS, Clemens never found his rhythm and left after 41⁄3 innings. Hit hard, Gooden was gone after the fifth and the Red Sox coasted 9-3. Neither Gooden

Area athletes update ... Rodney Wallace is all over Catawba’s football record book — most carries (769), most rushing yards (3,769), touchdowns (41) and most 100-yard games (12). A prep wrestling champ in South Carolina before Catawba signed him, Wallace also holds the unofficial WALLACE Catawba record for most trampled linebackers and dented defensive backs. The 5-foot-9, 205-pound Wallace’s physical presence led him to boxing and then MMA (Mixed Martial Arts) after his football career was over. He rapidly streaked near the top of MMA light heavyweights by taking his first nine fights, and that led to bouts in big-time venues such as Las Vegas and Oakland. Wallace lost his last three fights, all by unanimous decision, in Ultimate Fighting Championships confrontations with Brian Stann, Jared Hamman and Phil Davis, marquee names in the sport. Wallace’s scrap with Hamman last March during UFC 111 was declared the “Fight of the Night” and earned him $65,000. “I had some great fights with some good fighters, and it was a well-run organization, a very cool deal,” Wallace said. Wallace’s focus now is on the new school he’s opened 206 South Main Street in Salisbury. It’s called “Sho Nuff Self Defense,” a reference to Wallace’s MMA nickname — “Sho Nuff the Master.” It’s been open for a couple of weeks. Wallace, 28, said his new endeavor offers something for all ages and fitness levels, whether you’re just trying to get back into shape or if you have dreams of a career in MMA. “I’ve learned a lot, and I want to give people in Salisbury an opportunity to learn if they want to go into that kind of career,” Wallace said. “Now they won’t have to go all the way to Charlotte.” Wallace is a proponent of every child knowing selfdefense basics, and he’s a serious fitness advocate. “Some people get tired of

pittsburgh quarterback Ben roethlisberger’s comeback was successful on sunday as the steelers rolled against cleveland.
Roethlisberger returns Associated Press
PITTSBURGH — With Ben Roethlisberger revSteelers 28 eling in the cheers Browns 10 he once feared he might not hear, the Pittsburgh Steelers looked like themselves for the first time all season. They also sounded like the team that loves to intimidate. To the Cleveland Browns, it was Steelers linebacker James Harrison who was the game’s impact player. Twice.
Roethlisberger, cheered loudly during his first game in 9 months, returned from his four-game suspension to throw three touchdown passes, and the Steelers shut down a Browns offense that was depleted by Harrison hits during a 28-10 victory on Sunday. With the Steelers (4-1) leading 7-3 but backed up to their own 4 late in the third quarter, Roethlisberger — flashing the big-play ability his team lacked without him — completed passes of 50 yards to Mike Wallace and 36 yards to Heath Miller on suc-
terback’s actions. Except for 20 signcarrying protesters outside Heinz Field, that anger wasn’t evident as Roethlisberger received numerous loud ovations from the standing-room crowd of 65,168. “I started thinking about it on the way here,” said Roethlisberger, who once worried that his reception would be chilly. “Before the game I got emotional. To hear the cheers was something special. I got a little emotional.” The Browns (1-5) couldn’t get into

Roethlisberger also threw scoring passes of 29 yards to Wallace and 14 yards to Miller.

Jimmie Johnson is criticized for being too boring.
CONCORD — There’s a theory that Jimmie Johnson is to blame for what ails NASCAR. Falling television ratings are because the four-time defending Sprint Cup champion kills the suspense by winning all the time. Attendance at races is down because Johnson is boring and lacks the strong personality of colorful drivers from the past. Johnson doesn’t buy it. “Well, I know that I’m not the reason for those things and I sure as hell know I’m not vanilla,” Johnson said. Johnson made his case before another hohum third-place finish on Saturday at Charlotte Motor Speedway. It came as he rallied from being 37th early in the race when he
spun out. “I’m kind of proud that I didn’t hit anything,” Johnson said. Johnson remained in his familiar spot atop the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship standings. Johnson, who has won the series title since 2006, is 41 points ahead of Denny Hamlin. “We need more drama in our sport,” Charlotte Motor Speedway owner Bruton Smith said before Saturday’s race. “I was joking it would be great if Jimmie came out of the car and slapped somebody. That would be drama.” It’s not Johnson’s style, but he insists he’s a lot different from the young driver who started in NASCAR’s lower series. “I went from being like a C-level driver

Associated Press VANCOUVER, British Columbia — Mason Raymond scored twice and added an assist, and rookie backup Cory Schneider made 32 saves for Vancouver in a 5-1 victory against the Carolina Hurricanes. Mikael Samuelsson had a goal and two assists, and Andrew Alberts and Ryan Kesler also scored to help the Canucks bounce back after losing games in Anaheim and Los Angeles. Patrick O’Sullivan scored, and Cam Ward made 23 saves for the road weary Hurri-
canes, who opened the season in Finland 10 days earlier with two wins over Minnesota. Carolina has since lost in Ottawa and Vancouver, and has games in San Jose, Los Angeles and Phoenix before playing its first home game Oct. 27. Ducks 3, Coyotes 2 ANAHEIM, Calif. — Corey Perry deflected Ryan Getzlaf’s centering feed past Jason LaBarbera with 5:37 left, and Jonas Hiller made 36 saves in the Anaheim Ducks’ victory over Phoenix on Sunday night. Cam Fowler scored his first NHL goal, Toni Lydman
also scored, Perry added an assist, and Bobby Ryan had three assists to help Anaheim improve to 2-3-1. The Ducks rebounded from a 5-4 shootout loss to Atlanta on Friday night in which they failed to protect a two-goal lead by surrendering a pair of power-play goals in the third period. They also had a two-goal edge against the Coyotes, but made things interesting by giving up goals to Scottie Upshall and Eric Belanger in the third. The Coyotes, coming off a 2-1 overtime loss to Detroit at home Saturday night, dropped to 1-2-1.
Mediate breaks PGA victory drought Associated Press SAN MARTIN, Calif. — Rocco Mediate holed out for eagle for the fourth straight day, hitting a pitching wedge approach from 116 yards that spun back into the cup on the par-4 17th Sunday en route to a one-stroke victory over Bo Van Pelt and Alex Prugh in the Frys.com Open. The 47-year-old Mediate won his sixth PGA Tour title and first since 2002, finishing with a 2-over 73 for a 15-under 269 total on the CordeValle course. He had a holein-one on the par-3 third hole Thursday, holed out from 160
yards Friday on the par-4 fourth, and holed out from 111 yards Saturday on the par-5 15th hole. Prugh shot a 69, and Van Pelt closed with a 71. LPGA Challenge DANVILLE, Calif. — Spain’s Beatriz Recari won the CVS/pharmacy LPGA Challenge for her first LPGA Tour title, overcoming soggy conditions and a late bogey for a one-stroke victory over France’s Gwladys Nocera. The 23-year-old Recari, a tour rookie who made cuts in only three of her first 13 stroke-play events this season, rebounded from a bogey on
the No. 17 with a par on the 18th for a 2-under 70 and a 14under 274 total on the Blackhawk Country Club course. Nocera birdied the final hole for a 70. Cristie Kerr missed a chance to overtake Ai Miyazato for the No. 1 ranking, closing with a 70 to tie for fifth with Wendy Ward (72) at 11 under. Miccosukee Championship MIAMI — Jason Gore won the Miccosukee Championship for his record seventh Nationwide Tour title, closing with an even-par 71 for a four-stroke victory over Kevin Kisner and Scott Gutschewski.
Minnesota fires Brewster after loss Associated Press The college football notebook ... MINNEAPOLIS — Minnesota fired football coach Tim Brewster on Sunday, one day after the Golden Gophers lost to Purdue to fall to 1-6 in his fourth season on the sideline. Brewster went 15-30 at Minnesota, including 6-21 in the Big Ten, and the Gophers’ 28-17 loss to the Boilermakers on Saturday afternoon was their sixth straight defeat. Athletic director Joel Maturi said he’s had several conversations with university President Robert Bruininks in the last few weeks about the coach and both agreed on the move. Offensive coordinator Jeff Horton will serve as interim head coach the remainder of the season. “While I appreciate the passion and commitment that coach Brewster has shown, it is clear that a change in the leadership of Gopher football is necessary,” Maturi said in a statement. “We have high aspirations for our football program and we are not satisfied with its current direction. The results so far this season have been unacceptable and the program has simply not shown enough improvement over the past three and a half years to continue with the status quo.”
Brewster was hired to take over the stagnant Minnesota program in 2007, despite never having been a head coach or coordinator in college or the NFL. Brewster created a monster he couldn’t contain when, with a salesman’s determination and a preacher’s fervor, he started talking about Rose Bowls at his introduction. Known as a successful recruiter under Mack Brown at North Carolina and Texas, Brewster’s classes drew decent reviews from analysts but his players never quite put it together. Late Saturday HONOLULU — Nevada may never want to return to the islands again after losing its sixth straight at Hawaii. By bolting for the Mountain West Conference next year, it may never have to. Bryant Moniz threw three touchdowns, Mana Silva intercepted a late pass and Hawaii held on to upset No. 19 Nevada 27-21 on Saturday night, spoiling the Wolf Pack's perfect season. The surging Warriors (5-2, 3-0 Western Athletic Conference) have won four straight to emerge as the top challenger to powerhouse Boise State for the WAC title. Nevada (6-1, 1-1) fell to 0-6 at Aloha Stadium and hasn't won in Honolulu since 1948. Its last loss also came at the 2009 Hawaii Bowl when it was routed by SMU.

Eagles win with Kolb Associated Press
PHILADELPHIA — Jeremy Maclin and DeSean Jackson each scored two touchdowns and Philadelphia snapped Atlanta’s four-game winning streak with a 31-17 victory. A head-on collision in the second quarter cost Philadelphia star receiver Jackson, and Atlanta lost cornerback Dunta Robinson, both with head injuries. Jackson dropped a pass when hit by Robinson, who led with his head and hit Jackson in the helmet. Robinson was flagged for hitting a defenseless receiver. Jackson scored both Philadelphia TDs in the first quarter, on a 31-yard run and a 34-yard pass from Kevin Kolb. Maclin made sure his receiving partner wasn’t missed after the collision, catching an 8-yard TD pass and also scoring on an 83-yard bomb. Patriots 23, Ravens 20, OT FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — Stephen Gostkowski’s 35-yard field goal with 1:56 left in overtime gave New England a come-from-behind win. Deion Branch, acquired five days after Randy Moss was traded to Minnesota on Oct. 6, sparked the comeback from a 20-10 deficit starting with a 5-yard scoring pass from Tom Brady four minutes into the fourth quarter. The Patriots then forced the Ravens to punt and marched from their 14 to a third down at the Baltimore 3 and settled for Gostkowski’s 24-yard tying field goal. On the last possession of overtime, Branch caught passes for 23 and 10 yards, setting up the winning kick. For the Ravens (4-2) Joe Flacco completed 27 of 35 passes for 285 yards and two touchdowns. Jets 24, Broncos 20 DENVER — LaDainian Tomlinson scored his second touchdown from 2 yards out with 73 seconds left after a pass interference flag and New York rallied past Denver. On fourth-and-6 from the Denver 48, Denver safety Renaldo Hill and Jets receiver Santonio Holmes jostled near the goal line and the ball fell incomplete as the crowd went crazy. But field judge Gary Cavaletto threw his yellow flag and called Hill for pass interference. The Broncos (2-4), who led most of the game, appeared to let Tomlinson score on the next play so they could get one last shot at the win but both teams denied that was the case. A bad snap by J.D. Walton at midfield, however, was recovered by cornerback Dwight Lowery with 35 seconds left as the Jets (5-1) left Invesco Field with best record in the AFC. Vikings 24, Cowboys 21 MINNEAPOLIS — Percy Harvin’s 95-yard kickoff return for a touchdown gave Minnesota a spark to start the second half, and the Vikings overcame another uneven game by Brett Favre in a victory over Dallas. Playing with a bad elbow and the specter of a scandal hovering over him, Favre — who is to meet with NFL security Tuesday about the alleged racy messages he sent to a former New York Jets employee — took a bunch of big hits and finished 14 for 19 for 118 yards, one TD and one turnover. Giants 28, Lions 20 EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — Eli Manning threw two touchdown passes and the Giants sent error-prone Detroit to an NFL record-tying 24th straight road loss. Safety Deon Grant preserved the third straight win for the Giants (4-2) by forcing and recovering a fumble by Lions’ receiver Nate Burleson at the Giants 42 with about five minutes to go and New York ahead by four points. Ahmad Bradshaw, who finished with 133 yards, ran for 45 yards on the ensuing play, setting up Brandon Jacobs’ second touchdown run, a 6yarder. Jacobs also scored from 4 yards out. Manning threw TD passes of 33 yards to Mario Manningham and 1yard to Travis Beckum. Lions quarterback Shaun Hill broke his left arm in the first half, and
was replaced by Drew Stanton. Rams 20, Chargers 17 ST. LOUIS — James Hall, Chris Long and Larry Grant had two sacks apiece and St. Louis stuffed the NFL’s top offense for its third straight win at home. Sam Bradford threw a 38-yard touchdown pass to fellow rookie Danario Alexander, making his NFL debut, to help build a 14-point cushion in the first half. Steven Jackson, who finished with 109 yards, also scored and had several key late carries for the Rams (3-3). The Rams, who last won three in a row at home in 2004, entered the season with a 14-game losing streak. Texans 35, Chiefs 31 HOUSTON — Matt Schaub threw an 11-yard touchdown pass to Andre Johnson with 28 seconds left to give Houston a stunning fourth-quarter comeback victory. The Texans (4-2) trailed 31-21 with just over 7 minutes left after Thomas Jones’ 11-yard TD run. Schaub threw two long passes to Owen Daniels before Arian Foster scored with 3:30 left to cut the Chiefs’ lead to 3. Houston regained possession after a punt with just over 2 minutes left. Schaub found Johnson across the middle for a 15-yard gain, then hit him down the sideline for 31 more to the Chiefs 24. Saints 31, Buccaneers 6 TAMPA, Fla. — Drew Brees threw for 263 yards and three touchdowns for New Orleans. The Super Bowl champions rebounded from a mistake-filled road loss, scoring on their first three possessions and getting an unexpected lift from rookie running back Chris Ivory. Dolphins 23, Packers 20 OT GREEN BAY, Wis. — Dan Carpenter kicked a 44-yard field goal with 9:01 left in overtime to lift Miami. It was the second straight overtime loss for the injury-riddled Packers (33), who lost at Washington last week. And it was a special teams-driven victory for the Dolphins (3-2), who had a bye week to think about a loss to New England that resulted in the firing of their special teams coach. Aaron Rodgers started for Green Bay one week after sustaining a concussion, and scored on a sneak with 13 seconds left in regulation. The Packers tied the game with the extra point and forced overtime. Seahawks 23, Bears 20 CHICAGO — Matt Hasselbeck threw for a season-best 242 yards and a touchdown and Seattle’s defense sacked Jay Cutler six times. Cutler was in trouble much of the game, and completed just 17 of 39 for 290 yards. He missed last week’s game with a concussion after being sacked nine times by the Giants the previous week. Devin Hester ran a punt back 89 yards in the fourth quarter, equaling an NFL record with his 13th kick return for a touchdown. 49ers 17, Raiders 9 SAN FRANCISCO — Alex Smith threw second-half touchdown passes to Michael Crabtree and Vernon Davis and San Francisco finally won its first game, beating Oakland in a sloppy, penalty-filled game. Crabtree made a go-ahead 32-yard TD reception on the last play of the third quarter and Smith hit Davis on a 17-yard score with 7:14 remaining. Frank Gore ran for 149 yards, including a 64-yard scramble that set up Davis’ third touchdown of the season. Colts 27, Redskins 24 Peyton Manning completed 25 of 38 passes for 307 yards and two touchdowns for the Colts (4-2), who kept pace with the Houston Texans atop the AFC South. Joseph Addai ran 17 times for 128 yards and a score, giving a boost for a largely dormant running game, before leaving in the second half with a shoulder injury. Pierre Garcon caught four passes for 103 yards, including a 57-yard touchdown. Donovan McNabb went 29 for 45 for 246 yards with one touchdown and two interceptions for the Redskins (3-3), who fell behind Philadelphia.

ter of time,” Rollins said. Sanchez gave up three runs — two earned — and five hits in six-plus innings. The tough lefty had dominated the Phillies in his five previous starts against them, not allowing more than four hits in any outing. Oswalt chased Sanchez with a line-drive single leading off the bottom of the seventh. He advanced to second on Shane Victorino’s sacrifice off Ramon Ramirez. After Chase Utley was intentionally walked, Placido Polanco lined a single to center. Oswalt ran through thirdbase coach Sam Perlozzo’s stop sign and slid safely ahead of the relay throw to give the Phillies a 3-1 lead. “That was comical,” Rollins said. “Roy’s got those stiff hips and he looked like he was cardboard running down the line but he got it done tonight.” Jeremy Affeldt came in and struck out Ryan Howard after a double steal. Jayson Werth was intentionally walked before Santiago Casilla entered to face Rollins. The former NL MVP, dropped from leadoff to sixth in the batting order since the playoffs started, hit a drive off the right-center field fence to put the Phillies up 6-1. An appreciative crowd chanted “J-Roll! J-Roll!” with a smiling Rollins standing on second. Oswalt didn’t allow a hit until Ross connected with one out in the fifth to tie it at 1. He ripped a 1-0 pitch into the left-center field seats — nearly the same spot both of his homers off Halladay landed. But the Phillies played small-ball — a rarity for this lineup filled with inconsistent sluggers — to take a 2-1 lead in the bottom half. Victorino, one of the few Phillies with success off Sanchez, lined a double to get it started.

STEELERS FROM 1B the end zone until rookie Colt McCoy threw a 12-yard scoring pass to Ben Watson with Pittsburgh already up by 18 points. McCoy (23 of 33, 281 yards, five sacks) didn’t look overwhelmed in his first NFL start, but he played with a depleted cast after Harrison hits sidelined wide receivers Joshua Cribbs and Mohamed Massaquoi with head injuries during the second quarter. “We had our hands full with those guys,” McCoy said. “They’re really fast, they’re really good.” Cribbs left after a helmetto-helmet caused him to crumple onto the turf for several minutes. Massaquoi was shaken up after Harrison’s hit caused him to drop a pass. Alex Mack, angry at how Harrison kept sidelining his teammates, reacted by angrily kicking the ball about 20 yards to the Browns’ sideline, drawing a delay-of-game penalty. “You don’t want to injure people. I don’t want to injure anybody,” Harrison said. “But I’m not opposed to hurting anybody.” Apparently, his teammates aren’t, either.
“He’s a beast,” Ward said of the 2008 Defensive Player of the Year. “When you see him knocking guys out, you know he’s a man on a mission. You don’t want to see guys get hurt, but he set the tempo for us.” With Cribbs unable to operate the wildcat set the Browns used effectively in upsetting the Steelers 13-6 in December, Cleveland’s offense took on a more predictable and easier-to-defend look. Cribbs ran for 83 yards in that game; this time, Peyton Hills had a team-high 41 yards. “It makes it tough when you’re planning to vary the attack with couple of different things, and we’re out of it with quite a bit of the game left,” said coach Eric Mangini, who started McCoy because Seneca Wallace and Jake Delhomme have high ankle sprains. The Browns were forced to play the second half with only two healthy wide receivers, Brian Robiskie and Chansi Stuckey. It was another oddity in a game in which none of the four active quarterbacks — Roethlisberger and Byron Leftwich, McCoy and Brett Ratliff — had previously thrown a pass all season. Still, McCoy’s encouraging performance against a defense that has allowed a league-low 60 points offered some hope.
ó Darrell Waltrip (1985), Davey Allison (‘91), Dale Earnhardt (‘93), Jeff Gordon (‘97), Jimmie Johnson (2003) and Kasey Kahne (‘08) all finished in the top five in the fall race. • KAHNE GETS SICK: After being involved in a wreck with Sam Hornish Jr., an ill Kasey Kahne was replaced by J.J. Yeley when the No. 9 Ford got back on the track more than 100 laps down. Kahne is winless this season, missed the Chase and entered the night 19th in the standings. But he was coming off a fourth-place finish a week earlier at California. Yeley, who had parked the cash-strapped No. 36 Chevrolet early in the race, drove the No. 9 to a 38thplace finish. • LUG NUTS: Track owner Bruton Smith believes NASCAR should push start times for Sunday races back an hour to 2 p.m. ET to better compete against the NFL. “If people want to tune in and watch football ó and every game seems to be about the same ó by 2 o’clock maybe they’re tired of it and then they’ll come over and watch a real sport,” Smith said. ... It was another rough night for Dale Earnhardt Jr., who finished 29th and three laps down. ... Clint Bowyer’s No. 33 Chevrolet carried a decal honoring the 33 coal miners recently rescued in Chile. He finished 17th.

Could problem be partial sleep apnea? Dear Dr. Gott: A person I work with says he has partial sleep apnea. He has never fainted in front of anyone; he just says he needs to sit down and sleep for 15 minutes to an hour. Can this be true? Other people have to pick up his slack. Dear Reader: I have never heard of partial sleep apnea, but that does not mean that it isn’t a legitimate diagnosis. However, I have some doubts about your co-worker’s story. Sleep apnea is a condition in which the sufferer experiences episodes of not breathing while sleeping. This can occur up to several hundreds of a night and last for DR. PETER atimes minute or more each GOTT time. As a result, the individual may not wake rested and may experience extreme daytime sleepiness, which can lead to falling asleep at inappropriate times. Other symptoms include nightmares, waking gasping for breath, heart problems and more. Sleep apnea does not cause fainting, however. A related condition, known as narcolepsy, can cause episodes of inappropriate sleep that can occur anywhere, anytime and may resemble fainting because of a loss of muscle control. This complex condition causes severe day-
time sleepiness, hallucinations, sudden loss of muscle tone (also known as cataplexy) and sleep paralysis. Sufferers may also have sleep apnea, restless-legs syndrome and even insomnia. Unless your co-worker is willing to share his medical records, there is no way you will be able to determine whether he is being truthful about his condition or whether he is simply trying to get out of working. If he is indeed being truthful, he likely had to provide his superior with a medical note from a physician, because the condition would necessitate special work considerations. Bring your concerns to your boss. Be sure that he or she is aware of the situation. If the boss doesn’t know, it will then be up to him or her to confront the employee and determine whether the situation is valid. To provide related information, I am sending you a copy of my Health Report “Sleep/Wake Disorders.” Other readers who would like a copy should send a selfaddressed stamped No. 10 envelope and a $2 check or money order to Newsletter, P.O. Box 167, Wickliffe, OH 44092. Be sure to mention the title or print an order form off my website at www.AskDrGottMD.com. Dear Dr. Gott: I have an unusual problem. When I got my last haircut two months ago, the stylist accidentally got dozens and dozens of fine hairs in my
eyes. I have dry, sensitive eyes, and this certainly didn’t help. I have been to the emergency room and to my eye specialist, but neither can find anything wrong. I am in sheer agony every day and don’t know what else to do. I even bought an eye-rinse kit that didn’t provide any relief at all. I get about a dozen hairs from each eye every day, and some are still left. Can you please help me? Dear Reader: I am not sure how I can help if after examination, there doesn’t seem to be a problem. I am baffled as to how the physicians could not find a problem when you can clearly see the hairs. Because you do not say what type of eye specialist you saw, I suggest that you visit an ophthalmologist, who can use specialized equipment to view your eyes. If you have already done this, perhaps a second opinion from another is in order. In the meantime, avoid rubbing your eyes and use over-the-counter moisturizing eyedrops or artificial tears. Dr. Peter H. Gott is a retired physician and the author of several books, including “Live Longer, Live Better,” “Dr. Gott’s No Flour, No Sugar Diet” and “Dr. Gott’s No Flour, No Sugar Cookbook,” which are available at most bookstores or online.

New reality show to take viewers into W.Va. coal mines CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) — The reality television lens is zooming in on West Virginia's coal culture for a series aimed at celebrating the working man, but regulators worry that sending camera crews into underground mines could lead to disaster. Spike TV and Canadian mining company Cobalt Coal say the series, "Coal," will start shooting in November at the operator's underground Westchester mine in McDowell County, deep in the
southern coalfields. Ten one-hour episodes are expected to air next spring. But the idea has regulators, the governor and the United Mine Workers union worried in a state still reeling from the deaths of 29 West Virginia miners in an explosion at the Upper Big Branch mine April 5. There's also concern that tiny Cobalt, with only two dozen underground employees, doesn't represent the reality of an industry dominated by corporate gi-
ants with thousands of workers and dozens of mines. UMW spokesman Phil Smith said the show couldn't be representative of coal production because most mines have 150 to 300 workers. But Cobalt President Thomas Roberts said viewers will see the reality that counts: "Mining is a very regimented type of environment and highly regulated, and we're going to operate in a safe, productive manner," he said.
Monday, Oct. 18 Because your ambitions and abilities will be fusing together in beneficial ways that could help you achieve your heart’s desire, the year ahead looks better for you than past months. Make the most of things. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — If it’s at all possible, try to start this week off working on a labor of love. It will engender a good mood that will help you handle everything that confronts you. Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — Don’t be too busy to meet someone new whom a friend thinks could be of some assistance to you. You can never have too many associates to whom you can go to for help. Sagittarius (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — Instead of clinging to someone who has proven to be a detriment to you, turn to new people who have stretched out the hand of friendship. You’ll be amazed at how happy your life could be. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — You could get an opportunity to spend more time with someone whom you’ll like as you get to know them. Don’t be too standoffish to discover new friends. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — Trends are shifting in your favor, so don’t hesitate to make changes that could start to turn things around. In fact, you could even press for a favor if you see an opening. Pisces (Feb. 20-March 20) — Fresh life could be breathed into something that you thought was on its last legs. Instead of shutting it down, look for new ideas or ways to refurbish what you think is worth saving. Aries (March 21-April 19) — Something you thought was unworkable or undoable will prove to be exactly what you need, so don’t be so quick to discard things without first thoroughly checking them out. Taurus (April 20-May 20) — There is a good chance that you could meet someone whom you’ll instantly like. S/he might turn out to be either a good friend or a person with whom you could do a lot of business. Gemini (May 21-June 20) — When cohorts see that you’re working hard to achieve something that would actually make their job easier as well, they are likely to pitch in and do whatever they can to help. Let them. Cancer (June 21-July 22) — Have faith in the fact that others like you for who you are and not for what they can get from you. You don’t have to do anything special, just simply be yourself. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Don’t be afraid to show those you love how much they mean to you, even if you have to do so in front of others. You won’t embarrass yourself; it’ll only show how big your heart is. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Stay alert, because you might get a rare chance to win someone who could be important to your cause over to your side. Should the opportunity open up, don’t let it slip past. Know where to look for romance and you’ll find it. The Astro-Graph Matchmaker instantly reveals which signs are romantically perfect for you.

Even the experts err every now and then BY PHILLIP ALDER United Feature Syndicate
Ingrid Bergman said, “A kiss is a lovely trick, designed by nature, to stop words when speech becomes unnecessary.” If you bid and make a grand slam, partner probably feels like kissing you. But at a recent tournament in Loiben, Austria, there were some dummies who had less pleasant thoughts on their minds when their partners, who ought to have known better, went down in seven hearts on this deal. What would you have done after West led a low spade? The deal was reported by Fritz Babsch, an Austrian expert. He gave no bidding. In this sequence, once North jump-raises hearts, a controlbidding sequence follows. Each player shows first- and second-round controls in the three side suits, persuading South to leap to the grand slam. You start with 11 top tricks: two spades, five hearts, three diamonds and one club. What other two winners can you get? Some declarers assumed a 3-2 diamond break. They won the first trick in the dummy, played a club to their ace, ruffed a club in the dummy, and drew trumps. Yes, the club jack disappeared on dummy’s second high spade, but they lost a diamond to go down one. You should ruff both club losers in the dummy. Win trick one, play a club to your
ace, ruff a club high, lead a trump to your ace (learning that they are not 4-0), ruff the club jack high, draw trumps (overtaking dummy’s last heart), and claim.
