So long to ‘Cheers without beers’ Driver faces DWI charge in crash Two died in Cabarrus County accident BY MARK WINEKA mwineka@salisburypost.com

CONCORD — A 32-year-old Concord man is scheduled to appear in court today after the car he was driving crashed on Zion Church Road, killing two passengers. Oscar Lopez-Quiterio faces charges including driving while impaired and two counts of involuntary manslaughter stemming from the Saturday evening accident, according to the Cabarrus County Detention Center website. Dead are Otilio LOPEZ-QUITERIO Chegues, 33, and Jorge Gonzalez, 28, who both had the same Kannapolis address. The car the men were passengers in was cut in half after it went off Zion Church Road to the right, hit a tree, overturned and struck another tree, according to the highway patrol. They were riding in a 1997 Honda driven by Lopez-Quiterio, who was also hurt. Highway patrol reports indicated his injuries were not life-threatening. He is in jail under $260,000 bond. Trooper M.W. Coley initially charged the driver with DWI, reckless driving and driving without a license. The manslaughter charges were added later Sunday. Coley’s report said the southbound 1997 Honda was traveling at a high rate of speed when it went off Zion Church Road between N.C. 49 and U.S. 601. The accident occurred about 6:45 p.m. Saturday.

Longtime customers Eston Cheek, left, and Everette Gilliam chat at the counter with Tracy Little and Ronnie Shore at a table at Glenn’s Bar-B-Q in Kannapolis. Stephanie Clanton stands behind the counter.

Glenn’s BBQ in Kannapolis to close Friday “There were many nights K of no sleep ANNAPOLIS — Glenn’s BBQ has never lacked for atmosphere. There’s really no place to park. Customers snuggle their cars and trucks as close to the brick structure as possible, so the vehicles’ tail ends won’t stick out in the road. The seating capacity is 42 people, but that’s if everyone holds his breath. A constant chop, chop, chop comes from the kitchen, which is in full view of diners. Time- and weather-worn signs are out MARK front, including a WINEKA neon pig on the roof. And a woodpile rises on the side of the building. Owner Ken Clanton arrives in the dark every morning, and it’s not long before he unlatches the outside rusty door to the fireplace and throws in chunks of hickory. Clanton affixed a sign near his woodpile after someone hauled off some of his fuel: If you steal my wood and I catch you I will shoot you! Smile for the camera. No one has touched his wood since. To find this eatery off Central Drive, you have to know where to look, and loyal customers have found their way to Glenn’s for 50

years. Ken’s family alone has run the business through eight different presidents. That’s what makes its closing — the last day for Glenn’s will be Friday — so difficult. “It’s about the people,” Clanton says. “... There were many nights of no sleep leading up to this.” The reasons for the end to Glenn’s sound familiar. A sagging economy and dwindling customer base. Higher taxes. Insurance. Government interference. Rising food costs. The difficulty for an independent business to make it. “I think mom-and-pop places are losing their niche in society,” Clanton says. Clanton and his wife, Stephanie, are trying hard to keep their emotions in check these last few days. They often have referred to their place as “Cheers without the beers,” because here, they know most everyone’s name. Cooks behind the counter often start fixing a customer’s meal be-

People who live in Salisbury’s eastern gateway — the area around Faith Road and East Innes Street — have another chance to view and comment on a comprehensive vision for the community. The Salisbury Planning Board will consider the Eastern Gateway Area Plan at 4 p.m. Tuesday and accept public comment during its meeting at City Hall. The proposed long-range plan, which was developed with public input, recommends the eastern gateway area remain mostly residential, with commercial activity focused at major intersections. City Council must approve the final plan. The Planning Board will also consider two district map amendments including: • A request to change the city’s Land Development District Map to establish light industrial zoning on about 26.3 acres (two parcels) at 175 Circle M Drive as part of recent annexation proceedings. • A request to rezone 181 acres (324 parcels) from general residential to manufactured home development-neighborhood. To view the draft Eastern Gateway Area Plan, go to www.salisburync. gov/planningboard/pbfrontpage.html.

YESTERDAY: Cannon Mills baseball Here’s a photograph of the Cannon Mills Red Roses baseball team from the 1930s. Roy H. Campbell Jr. found this picture in an old family album. His father, Roy Sr., is the last person on the right in the line of players standing. The team played its home games at Salisbury’s old Cannon Park, at the corner of Park Avenue and Boundary Street (today’s North Martin Luther King Jr. Avenue). Last names for the players kneeling, left to right, are Hess, Chapman, McGinnes, Rayfield, Eaton and Fesperman. Names for the men standing, left to right, are Evans, Barber, Feamster, Sides, Cornelisan and Campbell. Roy Campbell said he wasn’t sure of the spelling of “Cornelisan,” but that’s how it was spelled on the back of the photograph.

Twice a year, Teenie McCullough dances for your blood BY MARK WINEKA mwineka@salisburypost.com

ROCKWELL — Teenie McCullough has a first-time-giver dance she launches into every time someone new comes to the Organ Lutheran Church blood drives. She saved one for first-time-giver Allison Brown Sunday afternoon. “Sign up, Hon, I’ll hold your hand,” Teenie told Brown later, and she was true to her word, clasping the hands of Brown and Jana Parker simultaneously as both gave blood. The young women were showing a stiff upper lip, because neither one is crazy about needles. “If I pass out,” Allison said over her shoulder toward Parker, “don’t laugh.” “We’ll pass out together, OK,” Park replied. But soon they were sitting at the refreshment table, maybe feeling a little light-headed, but sipping soft drinks and having some fruit, cheese, crackers and church member Debra Corl’s famous peanut butter fudge. “To die for,” McCullough said of the fudge. Organ Lutheran Church has two blood drives a year — one in the spring around Memorial Day; the other, in the fall before Thanksgiving. McCullough has been coordinating the event with the help of her social ministry committee for about a dozen years. She starts a couple of months before each drive with paperwork she must fill out for the American Red Cross. The committee then sends out a lot of emails and postcards to church members and other past givers, reminding them of the blood drive’s next date.

First time blood donor Allison Brown gets support from her sister, Jenna, who is holding her hand. “It’s certainly not something I do by myself,” McCullough says. In the week leading up to the blood drive, McCullough spends a couple of hours a night with a telephone headset on, trying to firm up givers for the Sunday afternoon drive. Other duties for her and the committee include lining up the refreshments, sketching out where tables and chairs go and making sure the room temperature doesn’t exceed 65 degrees.

McCullough set a goal of 40 givers for Sunday, and heading into the day, had appointments for 29 people. “We’re hoping for walk-ins,” McCullough said. “Our salvation always is the people who walk in.” An American Red Cross Blood Drive sign with a directional arrow back to the fellowship hall often lures givers off Organ Church Road. The Memorial Day blood drive usually attracts more people, because the committee gives away gifts, such as T-shirts, umbrellas and tote bags. “Where’s my gift?” Lane Brown deadpanned as he headed out the door after giving blood with his wife, Claudette. McCullough fished around in her empty pockets before stepping toward Brown and giving him a hug — his gift for the day. McCullough talks at warp speed and fits a lot of things into 24 hours. To promote the blood drive, she wore a Red Cross T-shirt as a reminder to church members as she helped with communion at the morning service. The blood drive was held from 1 to 5:30 p.m., but from 3 to 4 p.m., McCullough had to teach the sixth-grade confirmation class about the Ten Commandments. “I’m a people person,” McCullough said, adding the blood drive means the world to her, knowing that every pint given possibly saves three lives. A first-time-giver dance Sunday went out to Scott Townsend, who saw the blood drive sign on the road on his way to visiting his ailing father in Stanfield. His father has been battling mesothelioma

Remember when you could buy a pocketful of candy for a quarter at the corner grocery store? Today these quaint stores are gone, but inexpensive candy is still a reality. Just ask Curtis Montgomery. He is candy box chair for the Civitan Club of Salisbury. Not only does Montgomery know where every one of the club’s 45 candy boxes are located around Salisbury, but he can also tell you how much those pennies, nickels and quarters added up to over the past 15 years. It’s more than you think. In 1996, the first year Montgomery chaired the Candy Box Committee, the Civitan Club of Salisbury collected $2,655. Seventyfive percent of that amount went to CiviInternational tan which supplies the candy and a locked plastic box. Twentyfive percent stayed with the Salisbury club and was donated to MONTGOMERY Rowan County Special Olympics. By the end of September 2000 (the Civitan year runs from Oct. 1 to Sept. 30), five years of collections totaled $13,525. Five years later, at the end of September 2005, the total jumped to $26,450, double what was raised in the first five years. “Those were the years we added K&W Cafeteria,“ said Montgomery. K&W accounts for 28 percent of the club’s total annual candy receipts. For the next five years with the recession, job losses and foreclosures taking their toll on disposable income, the total dropped a little to $23,450. “Today, there are a lot more pennies in the change box than quarters,” said Montgomery. Added together, the Civitan Club of Salisbury raised $63,425 from Oct. 1, 1996, to Sept. 30, 2010, through candy sales. Rowan County and the North Carolina Special Olympics received at total of $15,856, the club’s 25 percent share. Civitan International, whose mission is helping children with developmental disabilities through the Civitan International Research Center, received $47,569. Compound interest may be one of the world’s great money makers. So, it seems, is candy.

When one man’s dream is dropped, another comes along and runs with it ack in the ’70s, there was a series of big events for me at South Rowan High School. As a junior, the dream was born that I might be able to attend West Point Military Academy. I had the help of Glenda Poole, the guidance counselor. She encouraged me that DAVID I could do FREEZE this, though it seemed like such a daunting task for a young farm kid. Mrs. Poole set out to procur the forms, make the contacts and get the process rolling. I researched as much as I could find about what some consider to be the most prestigious school in America. Much later, another dream was born. Phillip Tonseth, outstanding Salisbury High School athlete, had the same idea. As a child, Phillip watched the happenings of Sept. 11, 2001, in New York City, Washington, D.C., and

Both donated the winnings back to the Family Crisis Council, sponsor of the race. Phillip immediately gave his back. Leslie took a little convincing.

chance to play while at school. His running times were not considered fast enough, though they have continued to improve. Phillip loved the experience and charted his course to continue the process for admission. Written testing, physical and medical requirements, as well as community involvement are mandates to continue the process. Phillip passed all of these benchmarks. Phillip had to do various fitness tests. Included were pushups, pullups, crunches, a shuttle run, a mile run and basketball throws. Doctors have already cleared him for the stretch run. Phillip was quick to point out that the week at West Point did include some fun. His squad members had a mission of trying to catch a squirrel. He estimated that they used about five to six hours trying to bait a squirrel trap. They never did catch that squirrel, though. On the last night, curfew was lifted. A little mischief followed. Drag races with rolling chairs were set up in the hallways and intense

competition followed until one racer was injured and had to go to the hospital. Next up in the process is the required nomination from a U.S. Senate or House of Representatives member. Phillip has interviews scheduled with staffers of Sen. Kay Hagan and Rep. Mel Watt in November. That is where our stories take different paths. My nomination was in hand from Congressman Earl Ruth. I took the same physical tests that Phillip did, although mine were administered at Fort Bragg. All was well until the candidates spent a day of intense medical testing. Doctors found a heart murmur, which caused an immediate end to my possibility for admission. My dream had ended. Phillip’s future is bright. He is involved in Young Life, is vice president of his National Honor Society and excels in athletics and community activities. I’ll wish him the best on attending West Point Military Academy. No matter what, I think Phillip will make a difference in the world. His dream continues.

appointments. Roy told me of his working with the Rescue Squad in Salisbury, then of his education at a school of mortuary science, before his first funerary employment with Summersett’s. Roy is gone now, but he had a great sense of humor and enjoyed humor. One day, I was walking past his establishment while he was planting flower bulbs outside. I remarked that evidently his “plantings” were not limited to that which remained below the ground, a statement which he seemed to enjoy. On that day when I caught the ride with Roy, just within the city limits of Salisbury, he told me of one of his early trips with the Rescue Squad. He had answered a call to a particularly horrific automobile accident, pointing out to me, at the very instant of his speaking, the exact spot directly to the right of us where a human head had lain many years before. I guess every profession has its own peculiar “small talk.” During Jack’s appointments at the VA, his psychiatrist would meet with him to determine the on-going status of his condition, which seemed to always remain pretty much static, no better, no worse. Before we headed back up I-85, Jack would always insist upon getting his “travel money” issued by the VA for him to reimburse his driver, but my in-laws always let him keep it as his own. As we departed Salisbury, we would stop for barbecue {Jack always pronounced it to be “the best”) and made another stop for him to get stocked up on his necessities of tobacco, instant coffee, candy and crackers. Some years ago, Jack passed away in his 70s and was buried near his mother in that same cemetery of Moon’s Creek Primitive Baptist Church in Caswell County. All of the time I was with him on those Salisbury VA trips, he was a good soul, but it never really was his soul that needed the medication anyway. Jack rests, I hope, peacefully in the deep shade of that tree-filled, rural cemetery. Though the shadows there are somewhat grave, unlike those once occupying Jack’s mind, they are entirely bereft of pain.

Booms rattle eastern NC residents for 2nd time

WAYne hinshAW/SALISBURY POST

After giving blood at the Organ Lutheran Church blood drive on Sunday, Scott Townsend, Myra Long, Jim Cowden and Gloria Tolliver eat a snack.

BLOOD

Scott Townsend gave blood for the first time. He saw the sign for the blood drive and came in.

FROM 3A for 19 months and “has his good days and his bad days,” Townsend said. He needed a blood transfusion last Wednesday, and it made Townsend think that he should be giving blood to help someone else. Fran Simpson said the Organ Lutheran blood drive is convenient to her home in “downtown” Rockwell. “I like to see our church get its goal,” she added. McCullough made sure her daughter, Angela Dennis, traveled from her home in Indian Trail to give blood. Angela and her friend, Jerry Shuller of Charlotte, were the 12th and 13th givers, respectively. “Let’s go skateboarding,” Shuller joked, knowing he wasn’t supposed to be doing something like that so soon after giving blood. Besides the efficient Red Cross staff, a blood drive takes a lot of church volunteers. Some of those helping

Sunday included Corl, Debbie Wolfe, Tonia Faye Culp, Steve Yates, Hope Nance, Jennifer Shoe, Connie Holshouser and Teenie’s husband, Wayne. Allison Brown’s sister, Jenna, who was not quite old enough (or heavy enough) to give blood, helped console both Allison and Parker through their giving. In the end, 40 people came to the Organ Lutheran site, and 38 proved to be “producers.” Teenie McCullough was happy that four of the donors were first-time givers, and

she said those 38 pints will go toward saving the lives of 114 people. There was an irony to Sunday’s blood drive. Neither Teenie nor Wayne McCullough could give blood. Because they had been on an out-of-country cruise in the spring, they cannot give blood for a year. “That’s beating me up,” Teenie said. She will dance with joy when she can give again.

WILMINGTON (AP) — Residents along North Carolina’s southern coast say they have been rattled by unexplained booms twice in 24 hours. The StarNews of Wilmington reported that people called emergency dispatchers in New Hanover and Brunswick counties Saturday morning to ask about the noises and to report their homes shaking. Residents also reported booms and rattling windows and doors Friday afternoon. Stoney Creek Plantation resident Brook Lasko told the newspaper that the booms felt like bombing exercises that she remembered from when she lived near Fort Bragg. Officials at nearby airports and military bases say there was no training going on that could explain the booms. The U.S. Geological Survey had no report of an earthquake in the area that could explain the shaking.

NC boat maker wins contract for Savannah ferry NEW BERN (AP) — Custom Steel Boats Inc. of Merritt has won a $1.5 million contract to build a passenger ferry for the city of Savannah, Ga. The Sun Journal of New Bern reported that the company will build a 67-foot, 149-passenger vessel to ferry riders from downtown to the International Trade and Convention Center located

on Hutchinson Island in the Savannah River. Convention center general manager Bob Coffey says the project is being paid for with federal economic stimulus money and a U.S. Transportation Department grant. Custom Steel Boats vice president Teresa Flowers says the company will rehire five workers laid off because of lack of business and add two more. The company also will bring back as many as 30 of its subcontractors. The boat is expected to be completed next September.

Famed evangelist Billy Graham turns 92 CHARLOTTE (AP) — Billy Graham, America’s most famous preacher, is celebrating his 92nd birthday. The Billy Graham Evangelistic Association says the evangelist is marking the day at his home in Western North Carolina. In a statement, Graham says he wonders if God wants him to do more with his remaining time on Earth. Graham is working on a book about the aging process and still attends evangelistic association board meetings when he’s able. Graham has also been busy meeting various political dignitaries, including President Barack Obama, and attending the reopening of the Billy Graham Library this year. In May, Graham said he wants to preach one final public sermon, but details haven’t been finalized.

SALISBURY POST

FROM 1a fore he orders it. “It’s a neighborhood hangout,” Stephanie says. “It’s been very emotional for our entire family.” Near the front door, the Clantons have collected scores of miniature pigs brought to them over the years by customers — many of whom moved away, but returned for their pit-cooked barbecue on visits or holidays. On the underside of the pigs, they write the initials of the contributors. “It’s really sad,” says Everette Gilliam, part of the regular breakfast crowd that trades jabs and insights with Ken and Stephanie every morning. “The people who come here are real American people ... the salt of the earth.” Stephanie calls this particular group, which includes Gilliam, Eston Cheek, Tracy Little and Ronnie Shores, “our boys on the counter.” “This is where they serve no swine before their time,” Cheek says. Stephanie shakes her head at all the ribbing and socalled wisdom she has endured. She points to a sign on a nearby post. Welcome to Man World ... Where ego runs high, the tales are tall, and the BS is deep.

when she left to help Ken in the restaurant. The couple knew their hickory-smoked barbecue was a reason many people came to Glenn’s, and they realized they should not mess with the restaurant’s haggard look, beyond improving the lighting inside. “This has always been a hole in the wall, and I always wanted it to be a hole in the wall,” Ken says. “You can’t duplicate what’s here.” When Cannon Mills was in operation, Glenn’s often took orders from the workers and delivered them to the mill gate at lunch. (The mill closed in 2003.) Ken thinks the best advertisement Glenn’s ever had was an old yellow station wagon in which deliveries were made. It carried a “BBQ Wagon” license tag and had the restaurant’s name painted on the windows.

The Christmas holiday became a huge time for the restaurant, as Clanton cooked and sold pork shoulders for people to have over the holidays. In those days leading up to Christmas, family members slept overnight at the restaurant on cots, recliners or on top of freezers. When Ken and Stephanie feed homeless people who stop by the restaurant — which they often do — Ken wants them to sit in the restaurant and be treated like all other customers. “One of the little guys had tears in his eyes when I told him we were closing,” Stephanie says. The couple bottle and sell their barbecue sauce and dip. Ken still has recipes for various sauces that his father wrote on tablets. Glenn’s always purchases its pork shoulders from Corriher’s and its hickory wood from a

REPUBLICANS FROM 1a ly will raise the ire of Democrats and their allies. With federal stimulus money dried up, closing the shortfall may involve large spending cuts, chiefly in education and health care, which comprised 78 percent of the state’s $19 billion budget this year. “If they try to dismantle public education and the university system in North Carolina, they’ll have a fight on their hands,” promised outgoing House Speaker Joe Hackney, D-Orange, who is weighing whether to seek the minority leader’s job. Republicans may have to lower Medicaid reimbursement rates for doctors and eliminate optional Medicaid benefits.

Ken Clanton and some of his customers often go out the side door for a smoke break. Gilliam calls it retiring to the “smoking patio.” “Ken is one fine fellow,” Gilliam says. “He only has one problem. He pulls for Duke.” Clanton says he’s not a pessimistic man by nature, but he worries about the economic future of this area from Salisbury to Kannapolis. Small businesses can’t absorb the loss of major employers such as Cannon Mills and Philip Morris, and cutbacks at Freightliner. “There’s no place for people to work,” he says. “The future of Kannapolis doesn’t look bright.”

Clanton, who will be out of work himself in a few days, says there are probably five steps of grief in closing down an institution such as Glenn’s and losing all those relationships he and his wife have with their customers. He acknowledged not knowing what step of grief he might be in. As for the future, who knows? “Where does a 55-year-old white man with a bad attitude go?” he asks. “I have some thoughts, but I’ve got to get over the emotion of losing this business first.” Contact Mark Wineka at 704-797-4263, or mwineka@ salisburypost.com.

That about says it all, according to Stephanie. Little jokes that this is his first day inside Glenn’s, though he’s been coming here 33 years. “This is the best barbecue in the area,” he says. “Hands down,” Shore adds. Above their heads, Ken Clanton has nailed up a line of coffee cups. Each carries the name of a loyal customer — a row of fame, of sorts. The names on the cups have been turned toward the wall if those customers have passed away. All the cups have turned brown from the years of smoke passing over them from the nearby barbecue pits. Shores’ is the newest and whitest cup. “He had to give $100 to get his cup up there,” someone jokes. Glenn Jones used to own and operate Jackson Park Supply in this building. About 1960, he devoted a back section to a barbecue restaurant named for him. By 1972, Jack and Mary Hare — Ken’s parents — were running the place. First it was Jack Hare who everyone assumed was Glenn. Then it was Ken. “I have people coming in here all the time calling me ‘Glenn,’” Ken says. Ken worked at Glenn’s as a teenager, but he left to attend school at Gardner-Webb College and decided he wanted nothing to do with the restaurant. He eventually worked for Bell-Atlantic Mobil. About 10 years ago, his father called and asked, “don’t you want to buy the restaurant?” Ken said he did not, but when his father called a year later, after learning he had cancer, Clanton agreed to buy the building, which included space for a pawn shop fronting Cannon Boulevard. “Because there are things you do for family,” Ken explains. “We made it work.” Stephanie worked as office manager for Charlotte Parent Magazine until 2005,

man in Mount Pleasant. Ken and Stephanie have six children, ages 20 to 30, and all of them have worked in the restaurant. Their waitresses, Lana Hinnant and Lisa Petry, “are like a second family to us,” Stephanie says. The same could be said for many of the customers. Phil Puckett, who eats lunch here about twice a week, helped Ken Clanton cook all those shoulders every Christmas. “It became a tradition,” Puckett says. “He’s been a great friend, and it’s a great place. ... But life moves on.” Wayne Freeze of China Grove says friends of his from Canada who visit during the NASCAR races in Charlotte always leave with some barbecue from Glenn’s. “THIS is barbecue,” Freeze says over lunch. “THIS is the place. He called its closing “a sign of the times, I guess.”

Dear Amy: After getting out of a relationship two years ago, I got a puppy named “Bruno.” I work full time, so during the day my dad helps me out with his care. Now that I am turning 24 and have enough money to put a down payment on a condo, I plan on moving out of my parents’ home and taking Bruno with me. Amy, my parents are putting up a fight! I understand that they bought Bruno for me, that they help out with him and have grown attached to him, but the deal from the start was that this was my dog and my responsibility. My mother was the one who told me to get a dog in the first place! I have explained that there are dog walkers in the building I plan on living in and I never work holidays or weekends. They make that out to seem abusive! Neither of us wants to get a different dog. I don’t plan on giving in. Any advice? — Worried Daughter Dear Daughter: If Bruno is solely your dog and your responsibility, then why are you (and he) parked with your parents, who take care of him most of the time? You could compromise with your folks at the outset by allowing them to have custody of Bruno during your workweek, while you take him on the weekends. You should be open to the possibility that this might be best for the dog. (You have no idea of the amount of pining a dog can do when left alone during the day.) Otherwise, you should acknowledge that even if you feel you are the rightful owner of this dog, they have been his primary caretakers and he might have bonded with them. You should determine what

Dear Amy: I am always curious about people’s cultural and racial background. My 24-year-old daughter is mixed-race (black and Korean).

I am outgoing, and when I hear an accent or see someone I think is a combo like my daughter, I usually ask. People are always curious about my daughter and I’m curious about other people, too. Am I being rude if I express curiosity about a person’s racial background? Some people like the interest, but others seem to resent it. A man in the supermarket yesterday was obviously annoyed. He was from Sudan. Should I just keep my mouth shut? It seems too politically correct to stay quiet.

Charging up to a person at the supermarket and saying, “Hi — just curious. Are you a combo?” is obnoxious. So is saying, “I bet I can guess your race! No, really — I’m very good at this!” You need to accept that some people really aren’t going to care one way or the other about your motivations for intruding upon them. This has nothing to do with being politically correct. This has to do with you engaging strangers in a personal conversation they might not feel like having in that moment.

One Month or Maybe Even a Few Days From Today?

One of the biggest myths about pain is that it goes away all by itself without any treatment. A May 1998 study in the British Medical Journal proved this myth false, showing that 75% of back pain sufferers who do nothing about it will have either pain or disability 12 months later. Let’s face it, if the pain hasn’t gone away by now, it’s not likely to disappear on its own. Life’s too short to live in pain like this.

Recent foreclosure fiasco makes one wonder about ethics of personal responsibility

would not continue to appreciate forever. Your job may not always be there for you. You need to remain in a position in which you could sell your home, and if you owe too much, that may not be possible. Never, I advised, purchase the most home for which you qualify, even if the lender promises that it will be OK. No lender knows your situation better than you. Purchase, instead, the home that you know you can afford. Then downgrade your lifestyle a few notches to make sure you wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be in over your head. I am grateful that many of you did listen. And I have a feeling that those of you who did are grateful today. You are on your way to owning your home free and clear because you didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t buy above your means and you didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t cash out all of your equity.

Sure, I get the â&#x20AC;&#x153;robo-signersâ&#x20AC;? and the related argument, but how does a botched procedure negate the fact that these homeowners stopped making their mortgage payments? I just wonder whether the homeowners we now are reading about â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the ones who have stopped making their mortgage payments but feel perfectly entitled to stay in their homes â&#x20AC;&#x201D; ever have read the mortgage documents they signed.

OPINION

Salisbury Post

The Monday forum

“The truth shall make you free”

Benched but not defeated here is something gratifying about being a part of a legacy. I know. I have been. In the years I played on the Salisbury High School tennis team led by Coach Bill Lee, with Coach Chris Myers assisting, I had the privilege of walking onto the court every day knowing that I was in the midst of something special, that I inherited a winning streak that had lasted as long as I had been alive. When I was growing up, Salisbury High tennis was something revered, something sacred, and being on the team was something to strive for. As a KRISTY freshman playing in HARVEY the top six line-up, the gravity of the situation wasn’t lost on me. The first several matches of the season went well. I won easily and received the appropriate amount of praise — winning was, after all, an expectation. When the time came for my first match against Lexington High School, by far our biggest rival in the conference, I was confident, prepared and fully expected to dominate. On the court, though, something shifted. Mine was one of the matches we needed to win; everyone was counting on me. My confidence turned to nerves, my game fell apart, and I lost in a tiebreaker. I smiled, shook hands and told my opponent “good game,” but, inside, I was devastated and expected to receive a modicum of sympathy when I walked off the court. Instead, I was met with the news from Coach Lee that my team needed me to win my match, and, as there was a bevy of equally-talented girls waiting to play, I would be replaced in the lineup for the rest of the season. It was my welcome to the real world of consequences. Sitting on Lexington High’s bleachers, a fall chill in the air, the shouts of players in practice coming from the adjoining football field, is perhaps one of my most vivid high school memories. The shame of the announcement that I would no longer be an active participant on the team was short-lived compared with the crushing reality that I had let down Coach Lee. I had disappointed a man whose opinion mattered to me perhaps more than anyone else’s at that time in my life. He — and my team — had counted on me to come through in the clutch, and I hadn’t. (Thank goodness, someone else did, and we won the match anyway.) Some might say that was a harsh sentence for a teenaged girl, but they don’t know me like Coach Lee. That night was the first time I felt something I really wanted slip through my fingers, and, then and there, I vowed that I would work harder, practice more and show Coach Lee that he had made a huge mistake. Of course, he knew letting me sit the bench for a few matches wasn’t a mistake. It motivated me, and the next season I came back twice the player with 10 times the nerve, which goes to show that being a coach is about a lot more than hosting practices. To have the courage to take a risk to make a player better is the mark of a great coach. To be able to see past what a person wants to help give her what she needs is the mark of a great man. I may not consciously think about that moment on those bleachers anymore, but I know it’s there. It’s there every time I want to give up, but I keep going anyway; it’s there every time I fight for something even if it seems out of reach. And it’s there every time I see the realization flash across the face of a player on the other side of the net that I’m not the kind of girl who believes in moral victories. The man who leads the tennis team I’m a part of now isn’t all that different from instructors I’ve had in the past. He pushes me and forces me to be better every time I’m on the court. But I call him Pro. Because whether I’m 15 or 25 or 75, Bill Lee will always be my coach. • • • Kristy Woodson Harvey, a native of Salisbury, is a freelance writer and resident of Kinston.

Family best birth control for teens

Winston-Salem Journal

wo decades ago, humiliated by a series of social indicators that ranked North Carolina poorly, state leaders got serious about problems like low national test scores, infant mortality and sudden-infant deaths. Today, the benefits of those efforts are apparent. Fall is the season when the previous year’s statistics become public, and this year North Carolina has had a lot of success. SAT and other educational scores were either slightly improved or stagnant despite serious cuts in the education budget. The infant mortality rate is down. The child-mortality rate is down. And now comes the news that the teenpregnancy rate is down, too. The Department of Health and Human Services reported that the rate of pregnancies for girls 15 to 19 is 56 per 1,000, down from last year’s 58.6. Two decades ago, it was much higher. The improvement was seen across all races and ethnicities, and in most counties. Abortion rates have also fallen. ... When it comes to fighting teen pregnancy, North Carolina may have finally discovered that neither side in the highly charged political and moral debate is all right or all wrong. Conservatives have long blamed high teen-pregnancy rates on a permissive society and sex education. Liberals and moderates often argued that teens got pregnant because they didn’t know enough about birth control and basic sexual biology. When neither approach, on its own, solved the problem, the answer was to use both. And that is what is happening in North Carolina now. ... Of course, the best weapon in the fight against unwanted teen pregnancies is the family. The schools can only do so much. Families instill values in children, and good sense, too. While North Carolina has come a long way on many of these indicators, there is still a long way to go. We continue to rank in the bottom quarter on almost all such indicators. Yes, the raw numbers are improving, but not as quickly as they are in other states. But we are seeing success, and that good news should encourage all of us to continue to work for more improvements.

LETTERS Water bills don’t make much sense Now that the elections are behind us we can go back to everyday life here in Rowan county. That includes struggling to pay our bills, especially if we are on a limited income. Am I the only person who does business with the Salisbury Rowan Utilities who sees a problem with the new computer billing system? Earlier I had complained that for no reason or explanation my water bill had doubled for the month of July. I have one bill this month that is charging 14.7 cents per gallon for water usage and another bill that is charging $1.10 per gallon for water usage. I compared my SalisburyRowan Utility bills with my Mocksville water bills. The bill for eight people in Spencer showed 83,776 gallons used, compared to a bill for eight people in Mocksville with 16,250 gallons. According to Salisbury Rowan Utilities 1 unit equally 748 gallons. The bill for two people in Spencer showed 11,220 gallons used, for a charge of $128.43. Compare that to a bill for two people in Mocksville who used 2,050 gallons and cost $22.55. The city of Albemarle charges a $17.27 minimum for the first 30,000 gallons and then $1.88 for every 750 gallons over the minimum. The city of Lexington charges a minimum of $21.80 for the first 2000 gallons and then

Fine tribute to saints Hats off to Mathew Brown, his fine Chancel Choir, vocal soloists and Chamber Orchestra for the rich offering of music at First United Methodist Church in Salisbury on All Saints’ Sunday, Nov. 7. Thanks also to the various church members whose generosity made it possible. The service opened with the Allegro from William Boyce’s Symphony No. 1 in Bflat as a voluntary. Following the homily came the Caroline Te Deum in D major, HWV

280 (not 201, as listed in the program) by George Frideric Handel, first performed in 1714 in the Chapel Royal of St. James’ Palace in services welcoming King George I and his family to Britain, and associated with Caroline, Princess of Wales and later Queen of England. Handel wrote for the chorus better than anyone, and the Chancel Choir rose to the occasion. Also worth noting were the fine string playing and brilliant trumpet performance. At the offertory the strings, led by Susan Perkins, violin, gave a lovely flowing performance of the famous Canon by Johann Pachelbel. The recessional hymn was the splendid “For All the Saints, Who from Their Labors Rest” by Ralph Vaughan Williams, and the service ended in grand style with La Rejouissance from Handel’s Music for the Royal Fireworks (HWV 351, 1749). — Dale Higbee Salisbury

Save the tears for U.S. banks The News & Observer of Raleigh

asy now. Before you pull out the bath towel to soak up your tears over the fact that banks are having a harder time finding revenue because they’ve lost things like hefty overdraft fees thanks to congressional regulation, take it easy. And do the same before you smack your favorite coffee cup on the floor because your bank may make up the difference in lost funds by charging you for what you thought was going to be a free checking account. Doggone regulation. Something like a near-Depression just sent Congress into a frenzy in the name of, if you can believe it, consumer protection. And the banks didn’t help matters with all those big-time bonuses for executives. (That didn’t apply to community banks such as many in North Carolina.) So now, consumers will get some breaks from things like those overdraft fees but banks are, the Associated Press reports, trying to find new revenue, which may come in the form of charges for services that previously were free. Still, those community banks and credit unions might not follow suit. And even in larger banks, there’s the little matter of competition. Yes, it will take awareness on the part of customers to shop their business around if they want to avoid new fees, but people can do that. This move on the part of banks could be akin to what happens when airlines periodically caution that rates are going skyward — and then they don’t, because not all the airlines raise prices. In other words, don’t “borrow sorrow from tomorrow,” pun intended, until you see what your bank is going to do.

Parents hope sketch helps find man who killed daughter ROANOKE, Va. (AP) — Family and friends hope a road trip will help identity a suspect in the killing of a 20-year-old Roanoke woman who disappeared after leaving a concert at the University of Virginia. WDBJ-TV reports Morgan D. Harrington’s parents conducted the trip Saturday from Roanoke to Charlottesville and Fairfax. Forensic evidence links Harrington’s case to a 2005 rape in Fairfax. The woman in the Fairfax case survived and gave a description of the suspect to police. During their trip Saturday, the outside of the Harrington’s vehicle contained a police sketch of a man’s face in the Fairfax case. Dan Harrington says he was shocked that few people in Fairfax knew the connection between the cases despite the sketch being released in July.

Resurgent GOP takes aim at health care WASHINGTON (AP) — Resurgent Republicans rallied Sunday behind an agenda based on unwavering opposition to the Obama White House and federal spending, laying the groundwork for gridlock until their 2012 goal: a new president, a “better Senate” and ridding the country of that demonized health care law. Republicans said they were willing to work with President Barack Obama but also signaled it would be only on their terms. With control of the White House and the Senate, Democrats showed no sign they were conceding the final two years of Obama’s term to

Gates urges repeal of ‘don’t ask, don’t tell’ WASHINGTON (AP) — Defense Secretary Robert Gates is encouraging Congress to act before year’s end to repeal the ban on gays serving openly in the military. It’s a position shared by his boss, the president. But his new Marine commandant thinks otherwise and the GATES Senate has not yet taken action, setting up yet another hurdle for gay activists who see their window quickly closing. After Tuesday’s elections that saw Republicans chip away at Democrats’ majority in the Senate and wrest the House from their control, their hopes for ending the 17-year-old law have dimmed. “I would like to see the repeal of ‘don’t ask, don’t tell,’ but I’m not sure what the prospects for that are and we’ll just have to see,” Gates told reporters traveling with him to Australia this weekend. Gates said he would prefer Congress act after the Pentagon releases its study of how repeal would be implemented, which is due Dec. 1.

FULLERTON, Calif. (AP) — The mother of a woman who vanished almost 10 years ago said Saturday a bracelet found on recently unearthed remains belonged to her daughter. Nancy Ekelund of Fullerton told the Associated Press that she had met with a coroner’s investigator and instantly recognized the gold-link bracelet she had given as a present to her daughter Lynsie Ekelund, a 20-year old Fullerton College student who disappeared in 2001. “I gave it to her when she was 10 years old,” Ekelund said. “I still wear the exact same bracelet.” Authorities believe the remains uncovered this week are those of Lynsie Ekelund. Nancy Ekelund said coroner’s officials were expected to formally confirm the identity of the body next week.

NEW DELHI (AP) — Hampered by heavy election losses at home, President Barack Obama promised from India on Sunday to make “midcourse corrections” to reinvigorate his embattled domestic agenda in the face of a testier American public and more combative Congress. On a day of friendly outreach, Obama also was confronted about his support for Pakistan, New Delhi’s nuclear neighbor and rival. He defended the alliance while acknowledging that Pakistan-based extremists are “a cancer” with the potential to “engulf the country.” His comments took on added significance because he spoke in Mumbai, where memories are fresh from attacks in 2008 by Pakistani assailants that killed 166 in the city. Obama urged the two nations to talk peace; he didn’t commit the U.S. as middle man. Domestic politics followed Obama across the globe, and he tried to explain how he will recalibrate his presidency from the rubble of this past week’s elections. An Indian college student, who told Obama: “It seems that the American people have asked for a change.” The president agreed that people vented their frustration about the economy by sacking many incumbents. A “healthy thing,” he said, even though his Democratic Party suffered, losing control of one of the chambers in Congress. He said he would not retreat on spending money for energy and education, and offered no specific policy changes.

The new jail will have two courtrooms where prisoners can make their initial court appearances, participate in routine motion hearings or take part in probation or parole hearings in Frankfort via video to cut down on travel. All of that will be coupled with the jail’s increasingly popular, 3-year-old home incarceration program that monitors nonviolent offenders through ankle bracelets rather than put them behind bars, Carl said. That program costs taxpayers $7.50 per inmate per day, compared with a daily cost of more than $50 for each prisoner who’s incarcerated.

MONTPELIER, Vt. (AP) — The Vermont Yankee nuclear plant has begun an unscheduled shutdown so technicians can fix a leak where radioactive water is seeping from a pipe leading to the reactor. Plant spokesman Larry Smith says the reactor was taken out of service about 7 p.m. Sunday. He said it will take about 13 hours for the reactor to cool down enough for technicians to enter the area where the repair needs to be made. The leak spotted earlier Sunday is coming from a pipe 24 inches in diameter. Smith says the radioactive water is not seeping outside the complex into the environment. He says there’s no threat to public health or safety. The plant provides electricity to the New England Power Grid. The shutdown is not expected to affect electric services.

Weekend violence kills at least 20 in Ciudad Juarez CIUDAD JUAREZ, Mexico (AP) — At least 20 people were killed in drug-gang violence over the weekend in this northern Mexican border city, including seven found dead outside one house. The seven men were believed to have been at a family party when they were gunned down Saturday night, said Arturo Sandoval, a spokesman for the attorney general’s office in Chihuahua state, where Ciudad Juarez is located. Five were found dead in a car, and the other two were shot at the entrance of the home. There have been several such massacres in Ciudad Juarez, a city held hostage by a nearly three-year turf battle between the Juarez and Sinaloa cartels. Few residents now venture out to bars and restaurants. Ciudad Juarez, across the border from El Paso, Texas, has become one of the world’s deadliest cities in the time that the two cartels have been fighting. More than 6,500 people have been killed since the start of 2008.

U.S. missile strikes in Pakistan kill 14 militants, officials say

PESHAWAR, Pakistan (AP) — A pair of American drone strikes killed 14 suspected militants in northwestern Pakistan on Sunday, local intelligence officials said, in the latest attacks against alQaida and Taliban militants seeking sanctuary in the region. The missiles struck an hour apart in the North Waziristan — the area that has seen the overwhelming majority of drone strikes over the last two months. The rugged region is home to hundreds of Pakistani and foreign militants, many belonging to or allied with alQaida and the Taliban. In the first strike, one

Spears appears ready

With Drew Brees shaking off an early interception to throw two touchdown passes and Jabari Greer’s interception return giving the defense its first TD of the season, New Orleans routed the Panthers 34-3 on Sunday. The Saints (6-3) overcame the loss of tight end Jeremy Shockey to a rib injury after his touchdown catch to stay a half-game behind Atlanta in the NFC South. Rookie tight end Jimmy Graham caught his first NFL TD in Shockey’s absence and the Saints held Carolina to 195 yards for their

second straight win. “We’re used to last year where we ran off 13 in a row. That’s hard to do,” Brees said. “You know that feeling once you get on a roll and you feel like everything is going to go our way. You just believe it. We want to get back to that feeling again.” Building off an emotional home victory over Pittsburgh a week earlier, the Saints never gave the Panthers (1-7) a chance. Carolina lost quarterback Matt Moore and running back Jonathan Stewart to first-half

injuries, further depleting the league’s worst offense. Rookie QB Jimmy Clausen was later benched and the Panthers finished with 195 yards. “Pretty pathetic,” said receiver Steve Smith, held without a catch until the final minute. “That would be the only thing I have to say. There are no explanations, no excuses.” Brees overcame his 12th interception to complete 27 of 43 passes for 253 yards. He was replaced by Chase Daniel

Charlotte plays host to Gardner-Webb on Friday in the official season opener.  Charlotte sophomore K.J. Sherrill (West Rowan) is out with a torn lateral meniscus in his left knee. Major stated recently that Sherrill was the 49ers’ most impressive player in the preseason. The injury is expected to sideline Sherrill for 8 to 12 weeks. He could be redshirted if the injury keeps him out past Christmas.  Rio Grande’s Doug Campbell (Salisbury) had seven rebounds in an openingnight win on Friday against Ohio-Chillcothe and CAMPBELL followed up with 11 points in a loss to Bethel on Saturday. WOMEN’S HOOPS Rashonda Mayfield (West) is off to a nice start for NAIA Voorhees, which already has played four games.

FORT WORTH, Texas — Denny Hamlin won at Texas for the second time this season to take over the lead in the closest three-way Chase for the Sprint Cup yet with two races left. Hamlin moved in front with 29 laps to go, then got a push from Matt Kenseth on the final restart with three laps to go Sunday. Kenseth pushed ahead momentarily before Hamlin got right back in front and went on to his seriesbest eighth victory of the season. For Jimmie Johnson, it was more Texas trouble and a HAMLIN bump in his drive for an unprecedented fifth consecutive title while his Hendrick teammate Jeff Gordon got into a fight on the track. Johnson carried a 14-point lead into Texas, but leaves in second place — 33 behind Hamlin. Kevin Harvick is third, 59 points behind Hamlin. Johnson lost the points lead with a ninth-place finish in a race where he lost ground on two troublesome pit stops. Despite an unusual crew change late in the race, it was too late to get Johnson back ahead of Hamlin and Harvick. “It was just a long day,” Johnson said. “I had speed in the car. We worked our way forward and had issues on pit road. ... We gave away so much track position from the beginning. It’s tough to get back where we needed to.” The crew for Gordon took over in the No. 48 pit with Johnson after Gordon was hit and crashed during a caution period. An angry Gordon hit Jeff Burton with a hard two-handed push after Burton sent Gordon’s car crashing. After getting out of his No. 24 car, Gordon walked from the top to the bottom of the track to confront Burton. Gordon shoved Burton, then took some swings before they were separated by two NASCAR safety officials. Hamlin won at Texas in April less than three weeks after surgery to repair a torn ACL in his left knee. His first race after the surgery was a 30th-place finish at Phoenix, where the next race is. Kenseth finished second Sunday, and Mark Martin was third. Harvick was sixth. Greg Biffle led 11 times for 224 of the 334 laps, but finished fifth. The 20th Cup race at the 11/2-mile, high-

Barnes to take leading role BY AARON BEARD Associated Press

CHAPEL HILL — Harrison Barnes hasn’t taken a shot or even stepped onto the court as a college player in a real game, yet so much of North Carolina’s plan to reverse everything that went wrong last season depends on him. With the Tar Heels coming off their worst season under Roy Williams, the 6-foot-8 freshman forward widely regarded as the nation’s No. 1 recruit is expected to lead the storied program’s resurgence. And from his Hall of Fame coach to his new teammates, no one is trying to temper expectations for a player who earlier this week became the first freshman named to The Associated Press preseason All-America team since voting began before the 1986-87 season. In fact, while most coaches avoid comparing unproven rookies to past star players, Williams has already mentioned Barnes in the same sentence with Tyler Hansbrough — who graduated as the Atlantic Coast Conference’s all-time leading scorer and won a national championship here two seasons

ago. More specifically, Williams said Barnes has more focus than Hansbrough entering his first year. And the coach who was an assistant to Dean Smith when Michael Jordan rolled through Chapel Hill doesn’t stop there. “He’s just got tremendous discipline, tremendous focus, tremendous desire and is willing to do those little things that make him special,” Williams said. “Now the thing about Tyler is that he got better and better every year, and his discipline and his focus got a heck of a lot more focused and more disciplined. The intensity level got even greater. It remains to be seen if Harrison is going to continue to go, but from this point, I’ve never been around a freshman who has this kind of intensity at this stage of his freshman year.” About the only person not talking about Barnes is, well, Barnes. Freshmen aren’t allowed to talk to reporters until after their first regular-season game at UNC, a rule that dates back to Smith’s tenure. That

TCU steps up in BCS Associated Press SALT LAKE CITY — For most of the season, Boise State was at the forefront of the debate regarding BCS non-automatic qualifiers and their chances of crashing the national title game. Now TCU is in the spotlight, something even “onegame-at-a-time” coach Gary Patterson acknowledged Saturday after beating thenNo. 6 Utah 47-7 on the road. "The bottom line is that they put themselves on a different plateau," Patterson said.

It happened to then-No. 1 Alabama at South Carolina on Oct. 9. Then to newly crowned No. 1 Ohio State at Wisconsin the following week. And Oklahoma, the first BSC No. 1, fell two weeks ago at Missouri. TCU’s win over Utah, which was No. 5 in the BCS, bumped the Frogs to 10-0 for the second straight year and third time in the last eight seasons. TCU also has a 23-game regular-season winning streak is 36-3 in its last 39 games and, with 558 yards of offense, surpassed the 500-yard mark for the third straight game.

leaves his teammates to talk about Barnes’ polished allaround game. John Henson said Barnes “never ceases to amaze me” during pickup games, while fellow sophomore Leslie McDonald described Barnes as someone with “unbelievable talent” who “knows the game.” Junior 7-footer Tyler Zeller, at least, is eager for Barnes to prove himself in college even as he praises his potential. “I’m very critical of players so it takes a lot to impress me,” Zeller said. “So coming in, it’s one of those things where, OK, he’s a great player in high school. What’s he going to do in college? ... He’s come in and fit in very well, but at the same time it’s a different level and you have better athletes guarding you.” Barnes’ arrival, along with point guard Kendall Marshall and wing guard Reggie Bullock, should help the Tar Heels address the glaring weaknesses from last year’s 17-loss season that ended with a loss in the NIT championship game. Barnes and Bullock offer outside shooting and perimeter scoring punch, while Marshall could push

The golf roundup ... S H A N G H A I — Francesco Molinari outlasted Lee Westwood in a spirited duel Sunday in the HSBC Champions for a oneshot victory to capture his first World Golf Championship. Molinari closed with a 5under 67 at Sheshan International for his first win this season. The Italian spoiled Westwood’s debut as the world’s No. 1 player, although the Englishman put up a fight worthy of his ranking. Two shots behind on the par-5 18th, Westwood had a 25-foot eagle putt to force a playoff, but it stayed left of the hole the entire way. He wound up with a 68. Molinari finished at 19under 269.

Last fall, Johnson crashed on the third lap in the fall race at Texas and sat in the garage for more than 100 laps while repairs were made. But he had a huge lead then and it wasn’t enough to derail his championship run. This time, he will be chasing with two races to go. “I’ve lost plenty of championships in the past. This is racing. It doesn’t come easy,” Johnson said. “You’re not going to get what you want every single year and every single weekend.” On consecutive stops in the first half of the race, Johnson lost ground because of problems changing the front right tire. He had climbed to as high as second before the

Tiger Woods closed with a 68 and tied for sixth, 12 shots behind. It was only his third top 10 of the year and his best finish since a tie for fourth at the U.S. Open.

After starting 30th, the lowest of the top three Chase drivers, Hamlin climbed to 19th in the first 43 laps before coming in during a caution. He got blocked in and had to back up to leave his box, falling to 26th for that restart. But Hamlin was in the top 10 within 30 laps after that, and stayed there the rest of the day. Harvick was running 11th about 60 laps into the race when another caution came out 15 laps after another one. While most everybody else took two tires, Harvick crew chief Gil Martin opted for four and that cost six spots. Team owner Richard Childress came on the radio saying “you can’t give up that much track position.” Harvick was not happy about it either.

The embattled Fox yanked Clausen early in the fourth quarter after he completed 8 of 18 passes for 47 yards. Rookie Tony Pike then made his NFL debut. The sixthround pick from Cincinnati finished 6 of 12 for 47 yards. “There probably wasn’t

much fear of a comeback at that point in the game,” Fox said of benching Clausen. “It gave (Pike) valuable time.” By then, the Panthers were down to a skeleton crew and few of their home fans were still in the stands. Stewart, starting with DeAngelo Williams (foot) missing his second straight game, left in the first quarter with a head injury after gaining 30 yards on five carries. The Saints won a replay challenge on the play, giving them the ball when it was ruled Stewart fumbled. It set up Brees’ 7-yard touchdown pass to Shockey to give New Orleans the lead for good at 7-3. Shockey, though, injured his ribs on what was his 500th career catch and didn’t return. “We took him (to the hospital) just to make sure there was nothing else more serious,” coach Sean Payton said. “The X-rays were negative.” The Saints didn’t need him, not with the Panthers failing to reach double digits in points for the fourth time in eight games.

after Ladell Betts’ 1-yard TD run made it 34-3 with 8:12 left. It ensured the Saints would enter their bye week with as many wins as any team in the NFC. “I think that this was a game that is really going to give our team the confidence, the know-how and the blueprint to get to where we want to get to,” Greer said. New Orleans got a boost to its banged-up secondary with the return of Greer and Tracy Porter to complete its first season sweep of Carolina since 2001. The Panthers went 1-15 that season, and this year is looking just as bad. “I think they tried,” coach John Fox said. “I think we’re not real good right now — on offense — not as a football team.” Moore was 3 of 6 for 13 yards before leaving with an injured throwing shoulder after Sedrick Ellis sacked him in the second quarter.

Larry Drew II after Drew’s uneven performance in his first year at the helm of Williams’ fast-paced attack. That group is a big reason why North Carolina is ranked eighth in the preseason despite last year’s struggles. And the Tar Heels figure to benefit from the experience gained by Henson, a longarmed 6-10 forward who improved during the NIT run, and guard Dexter Strickland during their freshman sea-

sons. But after boasting a deep front line last season, the Tar Heels are thin up front. Zeller, Henson and Alabama transfer Justin Knox are the only big men after the unexpected transfer of twins David and Travis Wear following last season. Williams had hoped to play senior 3-point shooter and swingman Will Graves at the 4-spot to create matchup problems, but he dismissed Graves from the team last month for breaking team rules. Williams has made early changes, too. He resorted to dusting off old sprinting and conditioning drills — “It’s run, run, run, run,” he said — from his time as Smith’s assistant and his early days as head coach at Kansas in an effort to make his team mentally tougher as they face fatigue. Drew said he expected last season’s struggles were “always going to be there” this season for the players. They certainly won’t disappear for Williams, who missed the NCAA tournament for the first time since his first Kansas team was on probation. “I don’t think I’m ever going to forget what happened last year,” he said. “I don’t think I’m ever going to put it out of my mind, and that’s OK.”

Browns, McCoy for real Associated Press NLF roundup ... CLEVELAND — Rookie quarterback Colt McCoy scrambled for a touchdown, Peyton Hillis ran for a career-high 184 yards and two scores and the Browns pounded the New England Patriots 34-14 on Sunday. Two weeks after stunning New Orleans, the Browns (3-5) pulled off another shocker. Well rested after their bye week, they ended New England’s five-game winning streak and did it decisively, outplaying one of the NFL’s top teams for all 60 minutes. This was no fluke. The Patriots (6-2) were battered, baffled and beaten badly. It had to be particularly satisfying for Browns coach Eric Mangini, who defeated Bill Belichick, his former friend and d smentor. The pair’s relationship was damaged years ago and they ignored each other during pregame warmups despite being just a few feet apart. After the game ended, Mangini, his jacket drenched from a late-game Gatorade shower, shared a brief handshake with Belichick. Eagles 26, Colts 24 PHILADELPHIA — Michael Vick threw for 218 yards and one touchdown, ran for 74 yards and a score, and the Eagles beat Peyton Manning and the Colts. The Eagles (5-3) are 12-0 after a bye since Andy Reid became coach in 1999. They hadn’t beaten Manning in three previous tries. The Colts (5-3) had to make a quick turnaround after beating Houston on Monday night. It certainly seemed the Eagles were the fresher team, especially early. The Colts lost wide receiver Austin Collie after a hard — illegal — hit by Kurt Coleman forced him to leave on a stretcher in the second quarter. Collie lay on the ground for several minutes as the crowd fell silent. Soon afterward, the announcement came he had movement and was alert. Vikings 27, Cardinals 24 OT MINNEAPOLIS — Brett Favre rallied the Vikings from 14 points down to tie it with 27 seconds to play, then drove them into position for Ryan Longwell’s 35-yard game-winning field goal. Favre threw for a career-high 446 yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions for the Vikings (3-5), who fought back cheers of “Fire Childress!” early in the game to pull out the win. The Cardinals (3-5) led 24-10 with 4:39 to play thanks to a 96-yard kick return by LaRod Stephens-Howling and a 30-yard fumble return by Michael Adams on another kickoff. Raiders 23, Chiefs 20 OT OAKLAND, Calif. — Jason Campbell threw a 47-yard pass to rookie Jacoby Ford in overtime to set up a 33yard field goal by Sebastian Janikowski that gave the Raiders their biggest win in eight years. Campbell and Ford hooked up on a 29-yard pass in the closing seconds of regulation to set up Janikowski’s tying 41-yard field goal. The Raiders (5-4) then won it in overtime for their most significant victory since winning the 2002 AFC championship. Jets 23, Lions 20 OT DETROIT — Mark Sanchez threw a 52-yard pass to Santonio Holmes to set up Nick Folk’s game-winning 30yard field goal 2:18 into overtime. Sanchez scored on a quarterback sneak with 2:46 left in regulation and led a nine-play drive that set up Folk’s 36-yard kick to send the game into OT. Matthew Stafford threw two touchdown passes and ran for a score to give Detroit a 10-point lead before reinjuring his right shoulder and leaving the game with 5:19 left. Lions coach Jim Schwartz gave Sanchez extra time to work with on the game-tying drive when he called a pass on third down and Drew Stanton threw an incompletion, giving the Jets the ball with 1:40 left. Giants 41, Seahawks 7 SEATTLE — Eli Manning threw for three first-half touchdowns, Ah-

mad Bradshaw added a pair of rushing touchdowns for the Giants. Manning and the Giants (6-2) jumped to a 35-0 halftime lead, overwhelming the banged up Seahawks and staking claim as maybe the best team in the NFC halfway through the season. Manning threw touchdowns of 46 yards to Hakeem Nicks, 6 yards to Steve Smith and 5 yards to Kevin Boss. Bradshaw scored on runs of 2 and 4 yards. The Giants rolled up 487 yards of offense against the Seahawks, who gave up 545 total yards last week to Oakland. Bears 22, Bills 19 TORONTO — Jay Cutler threw two touchdown passes, including one to Earl Bennett late in the fourth quarter to give Chicago a win and keep the Bills winless. Chester Taylor also scored on a 1yard plunge for the Bears (5-3), who came out of their off week to end a two-game skid. Tim Jennings’ interception came early in the fourth quarter, and with Chicago trailing 19-14. Bills quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick went 31 of 51 for 299 yards with a touchdown to Roscoe Parrish and two interceptions. Fred Jackson also scored for the Bills (0-8), who are off to their worst start in 26 years. Falcons 27, Buccaneers 21 ATLANTA — Michael Turner scored two early touchdowns and Atlanta held off Tampa Bay with a gutty goal-line stand to take over sole possession of first place in the NFC South. Turner rushed 24 times for 107 yards, including scoring plays of 2 and 10 yards that gave the Falcons (6-2) an early 14-0 lead. Atlanta was hanging on at the end against the Buccaneers (5-3), whose coach, Raheem Morris, had proclaimed his team the best in the NFC. Not on this day. Tampa Bay had fourth-and-1 from the Atlanta 2 with less than 3 minutes remaining, but LeGarrette Blount was stuffed by Thomas DeCoud on a run over right tackle. Turner picked up the necessary first down to run out the clock on the Falcons’ fourth straight win over the Bucs. Chargers 29, Texans 23 HOUSTON — Philip Rivers threw four touchdown passes against the NFL’s worst pass defense, and San Diego earned its first road win of the season. Rivers completed 17 of 23 passes for 295 yards. He used eight different receivers in the absence of tight end Antonio Gates, who was out with a right foot injury. Rookie Seyi Ajirotutu and backup tight end Randy McMichael caught two touchdown passes apiece. Ajirotutu was just moved up to the active roster Oct. 23, when linebacker Kion Wilson went on injured reserve. Ravens 26, Dolphins 10 BALTIMORE — Billy Cundiff made four field goals, and Baltimore cranked up the defense after halftime to hand Miami its first road loss. Baltimore (6-2) won its seventh straight at home behind Cundiff and a defense that blanked Miami (4-4) in the second half. Cundiff connected from 26, 39, 20, 24 yards, and the Ravens held the Dolphins to 24 yards rushing over the final 30 minutes. Dolphins quarterback Chad Henne went 22 for 34 for 231 yards. Joe Flacco completed 20 of 27 passes for 266 yards and two touchdowns for the Ravens, who are 6-0 at home since 2001 after a bye. It was Miami’s first road oss. Packers 45, Cowboys 7 GREEN BAY, Wis. — Aaron Rodgers threw for 289 yards and three touchdowns, Brandon Jackson scored twice and Green Bay routed on Sunday night. It was a new nadir in a lost season for the Cowboys (1-7), who came into 2010 with Super Bowl aspirations. And it’s sure to kick off a new round of speculation about the future of coach Wade Phillips, despite recent statements from team owner Jerry Jones that a midseason firing was unlikely.

NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA - UTILITIES COMMISSION – RALEIGH DOCKET NO. E-100, SUB 127 Before the North Carolina Utilities Commission In the Matter of Biennial Determination of Avoided Cost Rates for Electric Utility Purchases from Qualifying Facilities – 2010 Notice is hereby given that the North Carolina Utilities Commission has scheduled a public hearing in this docket which will commence on Tuesday, January 25, 2011, at 9:00 a.m., in Commission Hearing Room 2115, Dobbs Building, 430 North Salisbury Street, Raleigh, North Carolina, for the purpose of taking nonexpert public witness testimony as a part of its 2010 biennial determination of avoided cost rates for purchases of electricity by the electric utilities who are parties to this docket from qualifying cogeneration and small power production facilities. The electric utilities who are parties to this docket are Carolina Power & Light Company d/b/a Progress Energy Carolinas, Inc. (Progress), Duke Energy Carolinas, LLC (Duke), Virginia Electric and Power Company d/b/a Dominion North Carolina Power (NC Power), and Western Carolina University (WCU). The Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act of 1978 (PURPA) requires electric utilities to offer to purchase electric energy from cogeneration and small power production facilities which obtain qualifying status under PURPA. The rates for such purchases shall be set by the state regulatory authority, shall be just and reasonable to the ratepayers of the electric utility and in the public interest, shall not discriminate against qualifying cogenerators or qualifying small power producers, and shall not exceed the incremental cost to the electric utility of acquiring alternative electric energy. As a part of its responsibility in these matters, the North Carolina Utilities Commission determines on a biennial basis the avoided cost rates and conditions for the purchase of electricity by electric utilities from qualifying cogeneration and small power production facilities in North Carolina. In addition to the requirements of PURPA, G.S. 62-156 requires the North Carolina Utilities Commission to determine the rates and contract terms to be observed by electric utilities in purchasing power from small power producers as defined in G.S. 62-3(27a). The rates established pursuant to G.S. 62-156 shall not exceed, over the term of the purchase power contract, the incremental cost to the electric utility of the electric energy which, but for the purchase from a small power producers, the utility would generate or purchase from another source. The purpose of the hearing cited in this Notice is to consider revision of the avoided cost rates and contract terms previously set by Utilities Commission for the purchase of electricity by the electric utilities who are parties to this proceeding from qualifying cogeneration and small power production facilities in North Carolina. The Public Staff is required by statute to represent the using and consuming public in proceedings before the Commission. Written statements to the Public Staff should include any information which the writer wishes to be considered by the Public Staff in its investigation of the matter, and such statements should be addressed to Mr. Robert P. Gruber, Executive Director, Public Staff – North Carolina Utilities Commission, 4326 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-4326. The Attorney General is also authorized by statute to represent consumers in proceedings before the Commission. Statements to the Attorney General should be addressed to The Honorable Roy Cooper, Attorney General of North Carolina, c/o Utilities Section, Post Office Box 629, Raleigh, North Carolina 27602-0629. Written statements are not evidence unless those persons submitting such statements appear at a public hearing and testify concerning the information contained in their written statements. Any person desiring to intervene in the matter as a formal party of record should file a motion under Commission Rules R1-6, R1-7, and R1-19 no later than Monday, January 10, 2011. All such motions should be filed with the Chief Clerk of the North Carolina Utilities Commission, 4325 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 276994325. The comments and exhibits to be presented in this proceeding by formal parties other than Progress, Duke, NC Power, and WCU must be filed with the Commission no later than Monday, January 10, 2011. ISSUED BY ORDER OF THE COMMISSION. This the 5th day of May, 2010. NORTH CAROLINA UTILITIES COMMISSION Gail L. Mount, Deputy Clerk

Spontaneous gagging may have many causes Dear Dr. Gott: Thank you for your balanced, sensible and unbiased information. It is a breath of fresh air. My husband has a problem with spontaneous gagging. It does not seem to be related to eating, foreign objects or any activity in particular. It has caused him to pull the car or stop DR. PETER over talking with GOTT clients. This has been going on for almost a year. We have had monitoring of his throat for acid reflux, and he did have some, but the rise in acid doesn’t seem to correspond with the gagging, and medication doesn’t make a difference. He has tried over-thecounter medications as well as prescriptions. He has also had an endoscopic procedure, which showed no polyps. I would greatly appreciate any information you can provide; our doctors seem to be at a dead end. Dear Reader: Spontaneous gagging can be a symptom of several disorders; therefore, I cannot provide a definitive answer. I believe your husband’s best chance at getting a diagnosis is to be examined and tested by a gastroenterologist (if he hasn’t done so already) or by getting another opinion from a second gastroenterologist (preferably one unaffiliated with the first) or an earnose-and-throat specialist. The most likely cause is GERD. Gastroesophageal reflux disease is a common con-

dition in which acid backwashes into the throat. Reflux, either chronic or occasional, can be the result of excess acid production; a weak or improperly functioning hiatus (the ring of muscle that connects the esophagus and stomach); hiatal hernia (in which a portion of the stomach slides into the esophagus or alongside it in the chest cavity); diet/lifestyle; etc. Symptoms can include a burning sensation within the chest, a sour taste in the mouth, dry cough, regurgitation of food or liquids (which may result in gagging), sore throat, chest pain, difficulty swallowing (which may cause gagging) and more. People with reflux do not always experience symptoms, and for some, symptoms may appear unrelated. Just because your husband’s gagging does not appear to be related to the acid reflux doesn’t mean that it isn’t. I suggest your husband make some moderate lifestyle changes to see whether his symptoms improve. He should exercise on a regular basis; avoid fatty, greasy and acidic foods; and consume more whole grains, fruits and vegetables. He may also wish to use over-the-counter or prescription medication daily to try to prevent symptoms. Other possibilities include vagus-nerve impingement, esophageal spasms, smoking and achalasia. Achalasia is rare, occurring in about one in 100,000 people, so this is not likely the problem. It causes regurgitation and difficulty swallowing, both of which can result in gagging. Esophageal spasms are ab-

normal muscle contractions within the throat that typically causes pain and difficulty swallowing. Vagus-nerve impingement can cause nausea, vomiting, gagging and more, but it is most common in people who have had sinus surgery or head injury. Smoking is another common cause of gagging that is often overlooked. Smokers, especially heavy smokers, are damaging their lungs with the habit, and as the damage progresses, excess fluid and mucus can accumulate in the lungs and drip down the back of the throat. This situation can cause difficulty breathing, coughing, a choking sensation and gagging until the mucus can be expelled. To provide related information, I am sending you a copy of my Health Report “Hiatal Hernia, Acid Reflux and Indigestion.” Other readers who would like a copy should send a self-addressed stamped No. 10 envelope and a $2 check or money order payable to Newsletter, and mailed to Newsletter, P.O.

Contract control with trump control BY PHILLIP ALDER United Feature Syndicate

One of the main problems in a trump contract is keeping control of the trump suit. If declarer runs out of trumps, turning it into a no-trump contract, that is to the advantage of the defense unless declarer can run for home. This deal highlights one of the most common ways of keeping control. You are in four spades, and West leads the club jack. How would you plan the play? The ideal contract is three no-trump, which has nine top tricks regardless of the spade break. But getting there is more easily said than done. You start with those nine top tricks: five spades, three hearts and

one club. You must get a diamond trick, which needs 32 breaks in diamonds and spades. Suppose you win with dummy’s club ace and draw trumps. You will have only

Pamela Anderson in Israel to promote fur ban TEL AVIV, Israel (AP) — Former “Baywatch” star Pamela Anderson said Sunday she will try her powers of seduction while in Israel on an unlikely audience — ultra-Orthodox Jewish lawmakers. Anderson, an honorary director of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, is in Israel to participate in the local version of “Dancing with the

Stars.” Her work for animals “has been really inspiring,” she said. “I feel like I have actually done something.” An anti-fur bill has been put on hold in Israel over concerns by ultra-Orthodox leaders that it could impact production of the characteristic fur hats worn by some men from Hassidic sects on holidays and other festive occasions.

two left. You play a diamond, but a defender wins and forces you to ruff a club. By the time you have your diamond trick established, you will be out of trumps and watching the defenders cashing clubs. When you need to work on a side suit, it is usually correct to start immediately. Take the first trick and play a diamond. East wins and returns a club. You ruff and lead another diamond. East wins and plays a third club. You trump and lead a third diamond. Now if East tries a fourth club, you can ruff it in the dummy and draw trumps. Finally, yes, because you need trumps to be 3-2, you could initially draw two rounds, keeping one in the dummy to ruff a fourth club.
