City studies sewer system upgrades. 2A BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

THOMASVILLE – Dean Lambeth, the city of Thomasville’s maintenance and construction superintendent, resigned this week after he allegedly did not follow his responsibilities in investigating a July wastewater spill, according to City Manager Kelly Craver. The city of Thomasville recently launched its own investigation into a wastewater spill that allowed 15.93 million gallons of raw sewage to enter into Hamby Creek in July and August. The spill initially was reported by the city on Aug. 4 to the N.C. Division of Water Quality as 385,000 gallons, but the federal Environmental Protection Agency made Thomasville employees recalculate the amount earlier this month. Yadkin Riverkeeper Dean Naujoks initiated an investigation by the Environmental Protection Agency after receiving a tip from an employee at the Thomasville Wastewater Treatment Plant who claimed plant officials intentionally underreported the spill totals to the media. The untreated wastewater spill, which began July 13 and ended Aug. 4, came from the North Hamby Creek Outfall Line near Baptist Children’s Home Road, and sewage spilled into the North Hamby Creek in the Yadkin/Pee Dee River Basin, which flows into High Rock Lake. City officials said the wastewater spill happened as a result of a manhole that collapsed, possibly during or after a rainstorm on July 13. Craver said Wednesday

Pillars of Fame recipients honored BY PAT KIMBROUGH ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – The recipients of a High Point Housing Authority honor on Wednesday reflected on how growing up in public housing shaped their lives. Glenn Chavis and Bernita Sims each spent part of their childhood living in Daniel Brooks Homes, and both were recognized with the authority’s Pillars of Fame award in a ceremony at Astor Dowdy Towers. A panel of authority representatives and community volunteers have been choosing two former public housing residents for the honor each year since 2006 to spotlight people who overcame obstacles to become successful community leaders. “There is no telling what may be living in public housing. There could be a president in public housing,” said Guilford County Sheriff BJ Barnes, a past winner of the award. “What’s for certain is that people that live in public

housing are just as good as anyone else.” Chavis, well known for his research and writing pursuits involving the history of High Point’s African-American community, also was recognized for

‘For many, public housing was just a stop along the way.’ Bernita Sims City Council member his professional career, much of which was spent as a representative and consultant for Abbott Laboratories Inc. According to the authority, his professional accomplishments included being named a top sales representative and recruitment efforts that enhanced the ranks of minorities and women in that company. “Daniel Brooks was a different place then. It was a different time,

and the people that lived there were happy people,” Chavis told the crowd at Wednesday’s ceremony. “If you had the opportunity to live in Daniel Brooks, you were doing better than the people outside of government housing. ... They ran a tight ship. If you did something wrong, you were out.” Sims, a High Point City Council member since 2003, was praised for her involvement in local government, as well as her roles with other civic and community organizations, such as the Black Leadership Roundtable of High Point, the High Point branch of the NAACP, the Guilford County Workforce Development Board and the High Point Children’s Cabinet. “For many, public housing was just a stop along the way,” Sims said. “We were poor but didn’t know it. We were talented and were able to display that talent in many ways. ... Daniel Brooks was a safe haven for most of us.” pkimbrough@hpe.com | 888-3531

Time running out for first-time homebuyer tax credit. 2A

BY PAM HAYNES ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – After area home sales began a climb to the rooftops for six consecutive months, figures sustained a drop in August. Sales fell from July with 126 units sold in High Point to 99 units sold last month, causing a 15 percent decline. According to the High Point Regional Association of Realtors, the drop was expected as sales have taken a seasonal dip between July and August for several years. “We feel very good that it hasn’t gone down any further than this,” said Jeannene Poarch, president of HPRAR. “Where it is is a good thing.”

House on Briarcliff Drive is one of many for sale in the city. Triad home sales also were down 4 percent for August. Existing single-family home sales in Greensboro dropped last month, and the total volume for units sold fell to $71,130,000 from $84,452,000 in July. “While the August numbers have decreased from the previous

month, this is the first dip we’ve seen this year,” said Betty Smith, president of the Greensboro Regional Realtors Association. “With the first-time homebuyer tax credit in effect for closings that happen prior to Dec. 1, we’re optimistic that more and more potential buyers will be taking the

first step into homeownership.” Janet Parris-Gray, High Point Multiple Listing Services president, said the slight drop after months of gain was a sign that the industry was bottoming out. “All of the indicators we’re seeing this year say the housing market is pulling out of it,” she said. “When that happens in an industry, sometimes you’ll see a zigzag in figures. Over time, you’ll see that line continue to go up. That’s where we are.” Poarch said sales figures for September and October could increase as the Nov. 30 deadline for the first-time homebuyer tax credit approaches, though the increase would be minimal. “We might see some increase in September, but if you don’t have something under contract by mid-October, your purchase won’t qualify for the tax credit,” she said. phaynes@hpe.com | 888-3617

Sales decline. 1A BY PAM HAYNES ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

TRIAD – As the deadline for one of the year’s largest government incentives approaches, Realtors say there are some tips to follow for those who want to take advantage of the first-time homebuyer tax credit. Beyond other eligibility rules, the tax credit only covers real estate purchases that are closed by Nov. 30. Local real estate

agents said they expect to see some extra activity in October and November when last-minute buyers try to squeeze in a purchase, but buyers shouldn’t act too late. “We’re almost down to the deadline,” said Jeannene Poarch, president of the High Point Regional Realtors Association. “A lot of people think that if they get their contract in by Nov. 30, then they will qualify. But qualifying purchases actually have to be closed by that date.” Poarch said that buyers should be under contract with the home they want to purchase by Oct.

Point. The report states 42 percent of sales from January to April could be contributed to the credit. An extension for the tax credit deadline is being discussed among Congress. Poarch and Parris-Gray said the incentive should be extended to continue boosting the economy. “The loss of income to the housing industry has heavily contributed to this downturn,” Parris-Gray said. “If we do not get support and get it going again, it is going to take a long time to come out of this crisis.”

15 to meet the deadline. Janet Parris-Gray, High Point Multiple Listing Services president, said avoiding procrastination will make the process easier and give buyers a better chance to secure the up-to-$8,000 credit. “There are other criteria to be met, so buyers should act now,” she said. “People need to be closing by mid-November just to make sure the purchase qualifies. It’s more realistic.” HPRAR completed a report in the summer that documented the impact of the first-time homebuyer tax credit in High

THOMASVILLE – As a result of Thomasville’s wastewater spill of 15.93 million gallons, City Manager Kelly Craver met with a group of engineers Wednesday from Charlottebased Pease Associates. During the Thomasville City Council’s meeting Monday night, Yadkin Riverkeeper Dean Naujoks requested city officials commit to spending $10 million to improve its aging sewage collection system. Craver said Wednesday’s meeting with the engi-

neers was “the next step” for improving the city’s sewer system. “I was just meeting with our engineers, and what we have to do is assess the critical needs and prioritize them, create a plan of action and then create construction plans,” Craver said. Craver said the city will be applying for emergency loans through the N.C. Division of Water Quality Construction Grants and Loans Section. Craver said Pease Associates designed all of the sewer projects in the Pilot and Fair Grove areas of Thomasville. A spill of 15.93 million gallons of raw sewage that entered into Hamby Creek in July and August caused Thomasville officials to contact engineers. The untreated wastewater spill, which began July 13 and ended

Aug. 4, came from the North Hamby Creek Outfall Line near Baptist Children’s Home, and sewage spilled into North Hamby Creek in the Yadkin/ Pee Dee River Basin, which flows into High Rock Lake. City officials said the wastewater spill happened as a result of a manhole that collapsed, possibly during or after a rainstorm on July 13. Craver said engineers started immediately Wednesday examining Thomasville’s sewer system. “They will work as quickly as possible,” Craver said. “They have to get working quickly ... This is a marathon. It’s not a sprint, but we have to run very fast. This will be done expediently as possible.”

that Lambeth, an employee with the city for 32 years, received a phone call from a Baptist Children’s Home employee on July 31 concerning a potential wastewater spill. Craver said Lambeth had “reasonable enough knowledge” then

to investigate the spill instead of waiting until Aug. 3. Lambeth turned in his resignation to the city Monday after Craver “gave him the opportunity to resign,” the city manager said. As maintenance and construc-

He was a very kind gentleman.” According to Randolph County Schools officials, Neal had gone to the new school to measure air handling units for filters, and had not been heard from since mid-day Tuesday. Cleaning personnel had noticed a county work van parked outside the school, but had not seen anyone working. They initiated a door-to-door search of the school to look for the van’s driver before leaving for the day. Neal’s body was found at the base of a stairway that leads to the air handling units on the second floor. Investigators and the Randolph County Medical Examiner’s Office have determined that Neal’s death was accidental, pending further examination by the state Office of the Chief Medical Examiner.

City Attorney Paul Mitchell said the Environmental Protection Agency’s Criminal Investigation Division continues to probe the wastewater spill. The city of Thomasville also is continuing its investigation.

At Monday night’s meeting of the county commissioners, the commissioners praised Perdue’s action. “The Stanly County Board of Commissioners is deeply indebted to Gov. Bev Perdue as she continues to fight the good fight for our water rights,” said Commissioner Lindsey Dunevant.

Police search for bank robber ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

Members of the Etowah-Horse Shoe Fire Department rescue a family who drove through high water on Banner Farm Road and got stuck on Wednesday in Etowah. According to the North Carolina State Highway Patrol, Diane Marie Ferrari was driving with her son and mother to take her son to school when she got stuck. Ferrari, who passed three high water and road closed signs, was charged with careless and reckless driving. The road, which is near the French Broad River, was under water due to the river flooding from three days of heavy rain.

No major damage from heavy rain reported in Haywood County MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

WAYNESVILE – Five years after devastating floods in Haywood County, residents and county officials were on high alert earlier this week after a large amount of rain fell in the county. A stationary front from the south moved over Western North Carolina last week, dumping a significant amount of rain in some areas of the county. The Mountain Research

Station in Waynesville reported nearly 4 inches of rain over a three-day period, ending Tuesday, but there were higher amounts reported in other areas of the county. Cruso appeared to be the hardest hit, with around 11 inches of rain from Saturday afternoon through Tuesday morning. The community also had a tree and mud slide down a mountainside and onto U.S. 276 S. toward Camp Hope, and part of the bank of the river washed away

on the same road across from Springdale Country Club. Crews with North Carolina Department of Transportation were repairing the damage on Tuesday. The mud and tree on U.S. 276 prevented a school bus from dropping off one student, said Dr. Bill Nolte, associate superintendent of Haywood County Schools. He said the debris blocked the road, preventing the bus from continuing its route. One of the student’s parents is a fire and rescue

volunteer and was able to pick up the child. On Monday, as rains continued to fall, emergency personnel and town officials with Clyde and Canton, which were hardest hit five years ago, monitored the Pigeon River and its tributaries for potential flooding. Greg Shuping, director of Haywood County Emergency Management, said his department monitored real-time stream data and kept in constant contact with deputies and fire

Georgia residents warned of stagnant water after flood ATLANTA (AP) – Georgia residents returning Wednesday to homes soaked by days of torrential rains were warned of a hidden danger — disease-causing bacteria and jagged debris harbored by stagnant, murky water. Standing water up to several feet deep was still pooled in some neighborhoods, including parts of

Cobb County in the Atlanta area. Anyone venturing into a flooded yard or basement should wear rubber waders and surgical gloves, and items that were submerged should be cleaned with disinfectant, state emergency officials said. Bacteria in water left behind after flooding can infect open wounds, and

the soup could also contain harmful chemicals, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta. “Clorox is going to be your best friend,” state Insurance Commissioner John Oxendine said Wednesday. Flooding at sewage plants in at least four Atlanta-area counties along

the Chattahoochee River could add human waste and plant debris to the standing water in some neighborhoods, Oxendine said. Residents of Stephens and Douglas counties were without running water late Wednesday morning, the emergency management agency said.

Israeli, Palestinian leaders wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t meet NEW YORK â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Israelis and Palestinians said Wednesday that their envoys would meet with U.S. officials but not with each other, cementing the impression that a U.S.-sponsored meeting between their leaders had fallen flat. Chief Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat said there would be no follow-up session with the Israelis because the two sides hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t bridged the divides that have prevented them from resuming talks.

UNITED NATIONS (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; President Barack Obama challenged world leaders Wednesday to shoulder more of the globeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s critical burdens, promising a newly cooperative partner in America but sternly warning they can no longer castigate the U.S. as a go-it-alone bully while still demanding it cure all ills. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Those who used to chastise America for acting alone in the world

cannot now stand by and wait for America to solve the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s problems alone,â&#x20AC;? said Obama in put-upor-shut-up comments before a U.N. General Assembly hall. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Now is the time for all of us to take our share of responsibility for a global response to global challenges.â&#x20AC;? In his first appearance before the group, Obama promised the U.S. would reach out in â&#x20AC;&#x153;a new era of

engagement based on mutual interest and mutual respect,â&#x20AC;? but he also wagged a rhetorical finger at leaders who spend much of their time at international gatherings excoriating the U.S. He said â&#x20AC;&#x153;an almost reflexive anti-Americanismâ&#x20AC;? that swept the globe under the administration of his predecessor, George W.

Lee told world leaders gathered at the United Nations General Assembly that North Korea, which conducted its second nuclear test in May, should return to stalled international nuclear disarmament talks â&#x20AC;&#x153;right away and without any preconditions.â&#x20AC;?

BAGHDAD (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; A bomb exploded Wednesday outside a home in Baghdad, killing a woman and her two children, as other bombings killed at least seven Iraqi security personnel and a local politician in the capital and a volatile northern area. The blast outside the home of Mohammed Ali

Wais in the Baghdad neighborhood of Radwaniyah killed his wife and two children. Wais is a friend of a hard-line Sunni leader who has been accused of supporting insurgents in Iraq. A month earlier, Waisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; brother, a professor at a university in western Iraq, was killed.

Reports: Pope Benedict XVI to visit Britain LONDON â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Pope Benedict XVI next year will make the first visit to Britain by a pontiff in decades, British media reported Wednesday.

Brownâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Downing Street office refused to officially confirm it, but a spokesman said the Pope would receive a warm welcome if he were to visit.

Ahmadinejad: Iran ready to build world peace

Law enforcement officers are seen outside a rally in Pittsburgh, Wednesday. The two-day G-20 Summit is scheduled to start today in Pittsburgh.

G-20 summit attracts protesters PITTSBURGH (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Activists engaged in a precarious-looking stunt beneath a heavily traveled bridge and others gathered for a union-backed, pro-green jobs rally on the eve of the Group of 20 summit Wednesday. The summit of world economic leaders is being held here today and Friday and is expected to draw protesters from around the world. On Wednesday morning, representatives of the environmental group Greenpeace rappelled over the edge of the West End bridge and unfurled a large banner warning of the danger to the planetâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s climate

from carbon dioxide emissions. Eight protesters manned the banner, which stayed open with the weight of four people dangling over the Ohio River. The protesters, equipped with climbing ropes, harnesses, helmets and other safety gear, surrendered two hours later. A ninth person helping them also was arrested. Meanwhile, five people wearing harnesses and preparing to rappel off another span, the Fort Pitt Bridge, were arrested, police spokeswoman Diane Richard said. The 14 suspects faced various charges, including possession of an instrument of a crime, disorderly

conduct, conspiracy and obstruction. The mood between police and the West End Bridge protesters was cordial. When a heavy shower moved through, one officer handed a rain slicker to a female activist. Many passing motorists reacted to the small-scale spectacle, some honking and others shouting. One yelled, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Cut the ropes!â&#x20AC;? Wednesday eveningâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rally was backed by the Alliance for Climate Protection, a group founded by former Vice President Al Gore; the United Steelworkers union; and a Steelworkers-Sierra Club coalition.

As Gadhafi deal goes south, should Trump be fired? BEDFORD, N.Y. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Did The Donald and the dictator make a backdoor deal? If so, the plan to pitch a tent in this suburb for Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi went south pretty fast. Maybe someone should be fired. A tent erected by the Libyan government on Donald Trumpâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s estate in Bedford was dismantled Wednesday, and both Trump and the Secret Service said Gadhafi wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t coming. For Gadhafi, it was just another failed attempt to find a place to spend time during the UN General Assembly â&#x20AC;&#x201C; after his requests for space in Central Park, Englewood, N.J., and Manhattanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Upper East Side were all rejected.

UNITED NATIONS (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Iranâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad says his country is ready to shake all hands â&#x20AC;&#x153;that are honestly extended to us.â&#x20AC;? Speaking at the U.N. General Assembly on Wednesday, he announced Iranâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s commitment to participate in building durable peace and security worldwide for all nations while defending the countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s legitimate and legal rights. This appeared to be a reference to Iranâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nuclear program, which was not mentioned in his speech. He portrayed Iran as a defender of poor developing countries, lashing out at unbridled capitalism which he said has reached

Commander to send troop request for Afghanistan WASHINGTON (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The Pentagon sought Wednesday to march in step with the Obama administrationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s shifting war strategy as the White House considers using more counterterror strikes in Pakistan amid its doubts about adding troops in Afghanistan. Pentagon press secretary Geoff Morrell said the U.S. and NATO commander in Afghanistan, Gen. Stanley McChrystal, would ask this week for additional American forces â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a number that officials said could reach as high as 40,000 troops.

But Morrell said that request could be revised if the White House alters the military strategy it committed to six months ago. Morrell added that McChrystalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s request will remain with Defense Secretary Robert Gates until the decision is made. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s changed and a lot that needs to be analyzed,â&#x20AC;? Morrell told reporters. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only appropriate for the commander in chief and his national security team to discuss these developments and adjust, if necessary, accordingly.â&#x20AC;?

While U.S. and Russian officials denied a flat-out quid pro quo, Medvedev said Obamaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pivot on the missile program long loathed by Moscow â&#x20AC;&#x153;deserves a positive response.â&#x20AC;? Obama himself has said his missile decision created Russian good will. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We believe we need to help Iran to take a right decision,â&#x20AC;? Medvedev said.

CARTOONS: Cartoonists draw conclusions about the situation in Afghanistan. TOMORROW

Opinion Page Editor: Vince Wheeler vwheeler@hpe.com (336) 888-3517

Cap-and-trade bill would cost billions in taxes On Sept. 15, the Obama administration was forced to release cap-and-trade documents under the Freedom of Information Act requested by the Competitive Enterprise Institute. The Obama administration has privately concluded that a capand-trade law would cost American taxpayers up to $200 billion a year in new taxes and equate to hiking personal income taxes by about 15 percent. This works out to $1,761 a year for the typical American family of four. House Republicans estimate the cost could be as high as $3,100 per year and would drive millions of good-paying American jobs overseas. This is the last thing North Carolina needs. The Heritage Foundation estimates the economic impact of the Waxman-Markey cap-and-trade bill will result in significant job losses, raise electric rates, natural gas and gasoline prices. Americans will also face higher prices for food and all other products that will cost more to produce when energy costs go up. The Wall Street Journal has reported that supporters of President Obama’s cap-and trade energy tax have gone to great lengths to conceal the true burden it will impose on the American family. What has happened to the most open and transparent administration in history? It sure sounds like business as usual in Washington, D.C. The Waxman-Markey cap-andtrade bill only passed the House by six votes and faces significant opposition in the Senate. Many experts feel that the Obama administration is looking at capand-trade as a significant new source of revenue and the first step in nationalizing the nation’s energy industry. Call Sen. Kay Hagan, who

date is set for another meeting. I have a challenge – if there is a social worker, lawyer or judge out there who even gives a damn that a child is not being allowed to see his father (but they still want that money out of him) will they please contact me. I challenge just one person in the system to try to help this father and his family see his child. This is a child who has been in our lives for the last 10 years, a child we have helped raise and who we love to the very depth of our souls. I can be reached at sharonreitze@northstate.net.

How quickly they forgot lessons of Sunday school

You knew Hege would consider it J

“Thou shalt not bear false witness ...” – Exodus 20:16

t’s not the norm for a former county sheriff to consider running for his old office again after resigning under a cloud of suspicion and serving sentences for felony convictions. But that’s exactly the kind of unorthodox move you’d expect from former Davidson County Sheriff Gerald Hege. And it’s not surprising, either, because Hege still has many supporters in Davidson County who’d like to see him serving as sheriff again. We expect it would be an interesting Republican Party primary between Hege and Sheriff David Grice, who replaced him in 2004. There are two schools of thought on whether Hege should run: He’s paid his dues for convictions of obstruction of justice, so there’s nothing wrong with him running. There’s also the thought that he’s a convicted felon, and ex-cons shouldn’t be the head of a powerful sheriff’s department. And then there’s the thought among media types that a Hege candidacy would give them the chance to ask the former sheriff to shed some light on where that missing money from the department’s vice and narcotics unit went. Hege said he’d make a decision in November on whether to seek the office again.

im Wallis wants to take Glenn Beck to Sunday school. On occasion, the Fox News host has spoken of his daughter, who was born with cerebral palsy. According to Sojourners, a faith-based organization Wallis co-founded and leads, Beck recalled last month how doctors warned that the baby, if carried to term, might never walk, speak or feed herself. That was 21 years ago and she is now a miraculous young woman who defied the dire expectations. Beck has suggested that under health care reform, the government would be empowered to euthanize children like his. But who is Washington to decide whether a life is worth living? “That’s for God to decide,” he is quoted as saying. “Not the government.” From this, we learn two things. The first is that Glenn Beck believes in God. The second is that Glenn Beck lies. You’d hope those things would be mutually exclusive. For the record and for the umpteenth time: no version of health care reform being contemplated by Congress mandates death for the old, the disabled or the infirm. That’s a canard. It is mendacity, prevarication, bald-faced lie. In other words, politics. The art of the untruth is, after all, the life’s blood of governance. As a brief spin through PolitiFact.com, the Pulitzer Prize-winning fact checking Web site will attest, no party, ideology or politician has a monopoly on lying. Lying is as bipartisan as it gets. And yet, lies that have characterized debate over health care are in a class all their own – not simply because they are outrageous, but because they are designed specifically to enflame and terrorize. As such, those lies are deserving of special rebuke. Last week, they got it. Sojourners, which calls itself the nation’s largest network of progressive Christians, says its members sent out thousands of e-mails to five of the biggest offenders: Beck, his fellow Fox personalities Sean Hannity, Steve Doocy and Bill O’Reilly, and radio host Rush Lim-

baugh. Each e-mail said the same thing in essence: stop lying. Wallis, a celebrated theologian and author of “The Great Awakening: Reviving Faith & Politics in a Post-Religious Right America,” says Sojourners is trying to redeem things people “really OPINION should’ve learned in Sunday school.” Leonard “For example, Sean Hannity Pitts said we’re going to have a gov■■■ ernment rationing body that tells women with breast cancer, ‘You’re dead. It’s a death sentence.’ That’s just not true. So instead, in our e-mail we told the story of a real person, a real woman who was denied her breast cancer surgery because of her health provider’s discovery of a pre-existing condition called acne.” It is not, says Wallis, his intention to accuse everyone who opposes health care reform of lying. Nor, he says, is it his intention to promote a given proposal. All he’s trying to do is reframe health care as the moral issue it is, and restore verities we all learned in Sunday school. Or Hebrew school. Or Islamic school. Or, heck, kindergarten. That it’s wrong to lie, wrong to pick on the vulnerable. And that we have a duty to care for those who cannot care for themselves, the ones Jesus called “the least of these.” Those are simple, sacred and profound principles. But you wonder if the simple, sacred and profound still have power to sway us. Obviously, Jim Wallis has faith they do. I hope he’s right. Yet what a spectacular leap it takes to believe the tiny whisper of conscience might be heard over the shrill outcry of America screaming at its mirror. That is in itself a sobering measure of how far we’ve wandered from the things we once knew as kids.

She wants to be a teacher (a very noble occupation), but now, a large part of her scholarship that has already been awarded and accepted has been cut out effective spring semester. Here is their reasoning: “The state of North Carolina recently passed the 2009-2010 budget. This was a difficult task for our representatives and they had to make some tough decisions about budget cuts. One of the decisions made was to cut the funding for the Education Access Rewards North Carolina (EARN) Scholars Fund Program effective for the spring 2010 term.

MOORPARK, Calif. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Firefighters guarded rural homes, ranches and orchards as a wind-driven wildfire marched through rugged land between small Southern California communities Wednesday.

That time of year Davidson County fair opens BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

LEXINGTON – For Donald Marriott, the Davidson County Agricultural Fair offered a few hours of fun at a reasonable price for him and his two children Tuesday night. Marriott, who lives in High Point, took his two children, Cooper and Mimi, to the 63-year-old fair for the first time. As the coach of the Lexington High School tennis team, Marriott said he learned of the fair from a few of his students. “It seems very equitable for us, which is quite attractive,” Marriott said. “It seems to me that most of the rides look fairly clean, which is nice. The people are friendly, and they’ve got a good amount of rides. It’s spread out. It doesn’t seem real crowded. They didn’t charge us to park.” Fair Manager Vinnon

What: Davidson County Agricultural Fair

Austin Carty, a senior majoring in English literature at High Point University, has his first work of nonfiction due for publication by Penguin Plume in January. Carty’s book, “High Points and Lows: Life, Faith, and Figuring it All Out,” details his own journey toward adulthood and true faith by drawing on lessons from pop culture and Christianity.

Williams of the Lexington Kiwanis Club said he expects the fair will attract 28,000 people by the time it concludes Saturday. The Lexington Kiwanis Club uses the proceeds from the fair to sponsor Kamp Kiwanis, a summer camping experience for more than 180 Davidson County boys and girls selected by the Department of Social Services. “It’s more than just a fair,” Williams said. “This is more like a community event, but the primary importance is what

Job fair offers promising sign BY PAUL B. JOHNSON ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – In normal economic times, a job fair simply taking place wouldn’t represent a noteworthy event of local commerce. But these aren’t normal economic times. More than 175 people came to the High Point office of the N.C. Employment Security Commission Wednesday morning for a job fair geared toward permanent employment and part-time help during next month’s High Point Market. It was the first job fair held by the city ESC office in a year – up until now, not enough employers expressed interest to justify the event.

In the past when the economy was better, the High Point job service office held job fairs as often as once every two or three months. “We usually try to do one before (furniture) market. But back in the spring, I surveyed with my regular employers. And the jobs just weren’t there,” said Charles Diggs, assistant manager of the High Point ESC. During the summer, enough employers expressed interest that Diggs and his co-workers organized the job fair Wednesday. One reflection of the recession’s lingering impact – 14 employers attended the event. In past years during robust eco-

McKinley said of the fair. “It’s not huge. It’s a family kind of deal. It’s like business was back in the day when a handshake really meant something. People make the fair. That’s the bottom line.” dignasiak@hpe.com | 888-3657

Still, Diggs said holding a job fair does show the worst of the hard times in unemployment may be receding, if only gradually. High Point’s city jobless rate remains around 12 percent, a level not recorded since the ESC started keeping municipal jobless levels in 1976. Overall job orders in High Point improved during the summer, though

Randolph CIS program gets grant ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

RANDOLPH COUNTY – A program of Communities In Schools of Randolph County has been awarded a community grant from Truliant Federal Credit Union, the nonprofit announced Tuesday. The program, New Century Scholars, has received a $500 community mini-grant from the credit union. The award is one of 29 selected from 134 applications in the Truliant Federal Credit Union service areas in North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia. “The Truliant Community Mini-Grant program is designed to enhance financial operational

support for nonprofit agencies that serve people in underserved communities where Truliant operates,” said Marjorie Rorie, Truliant Federal Credit Union director of community services. Partnering with the Randolph Community College Foundation, the New Century Scholars program will provide scholarships for local students in Asheboro City and Randolph County schools at the end of the their sixth-grade year. The scholarship covers two years of tuition and fees for a twoyear degree at Randolph Community College and is targeted toward students who might not otherwise continue their educa-

tion beyond high school. Communities In Schools officials say by choosing the students early on in their education career, parents can help prepare their children for college. New Century Scholars is part of Communities In Schools of Randolph County’s ongoing program throughout the county to keep young people in school, help them successfully learn and prepare them for life. “We are grateful to Truliant for their support of the New Century Scholars program, which is a locally funded initiative,” said Sandi Norman, Communities In Schools of Randolph County executive director. “CISRC and

the RCC Foundation need for individuals, businesses and civic groups to sponsor a student. Sponsors can pay for the entire cost of one student’s education or give donations of any amount. Approximately $2,750 per student will be needed so that the funds can grow enough to pay for a twoyear degree at RCC in six years. Less than $3,000 to give a student a college education is a heck of a deal.” To qualify for the mini-grant, community and faith-based agencies had to impact one or more of the following areas: health or human services programs, youth, affordable housing, financial literacy and economic development.

6 sentenced in telemarketing scheme CHARLOTTE (AP) – Six more people have been sentenced for their roles in a Costa Ricabased telemarketing scheme. The Department of Justice said four owners of the Costa Rican call centers, an employee and a Texas-based list broker were sentenced Tuesday. Their sentences ranged from 41 months to 50 years in prison. Prosecutors say the scheme deceived U.S. residents, many over the age of 55, by leading victims to believe they had won a large prize in a “sweepstakes contest.” Victims were told to wire thousands of dollars to Costa Rica as a refundable insurance fee.

Legendary drummer Sam Carr dies JACKSON, Miss. (AP) – Sam Carr, a drummer who was considered an anchor in the blues scene that continues to draw fans to the povertystricken Delta region where the music form was born, died Monday. He was 83. Carr died of congestive heart failure, said John Andrews, director of Century Funeral Home in Clarksdale. Carr had a reputation as one of the best blues drummers in the country, but he made his living in the Mississippi Delta where he was raised. At one time or another, Carr had backed big names like Sonny Boy Williamson II and Buddy Guy. Carr had received multiple honors, including the Governor’s Award for Excellence in the Arts in 2007. He also received

several awards from Living Blues magazine. Carr’s father was 1930s blues guitarist and vocalist Robert Nighthawk who made famous the song, “Sweet Black Angel.” Early in his career Carr often played with father. Carr was born Samuel Lee McCollum in 1926 near Marvell, Ark. His name was changed after he was adopted as a toddler by a Mississippi family with a farm near Dundee, according to a biography written by Barretta. He moved back to Arkansas at age 16 and collected money at door of clubs where his father performed. He worked as a sharecropper before turning his full attention to blues music, moving to St. Louis and playing bass with harmonica player Tree Top Slim.

DALLAS (AP) – Retired U.S. District Judge Jerry Buchmeyer, who spent nearly 30 years on the federal bench and presided over a Dallas housing discrimination case, died Monday. He was 76. Buchmeyer, who had been in declining health, died in a San Marcos nursing home, his son Jon Paul Buchmeyer said by phone Tuesday. Jerry Buchmeyer was perhaps best-known for his handling of a 1985 lawsuit against the Dallas Housing Authority that many say helped desegregate public housing. The case, brought by seven black women over living conditions at a West Dallas housing project, led to thousands of low-income black families moving into predominantly white neighborhoods with the help of government rent vouchers. In another ruling, Buchmeyer struck down the Dallas County City Council election system, saying it diluted minority power. Roy Williams, a co-plaintiff in that case, told The Dallas Morning News that the judge was a courageous, fair man. Buchmeyer, born in Overton, earned an associate degree from Kilgore College in 1953. He earned bachelor’s and law degrees from the University of Texas at Austin in 1956 and 1957.

Bank of North Carolina shifts leadership ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

THOMASVILLE â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The Bank of North Carolina is shifting its leadership, though the longtime, key players will remain in executive roles with the Thomasville-based financial institution. The board of directors of the Bank of North Car-

olina named Richard D. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Rickâ&#x20AC;? Callicutt II as president and chief operating Callicutt officer, effective Oct. 1. Callicutt, who has been with the bank since its inception in 1991, currently

serves as executive vice president and chief operating officer. As president, Callicutt will oversee the day-today operations of the bank, including retail banking, commercial banking, branch administration and mortgage functions, it was announced Wednesday.

W. Swope Montgomery Jr., who currently is Bank of North Carolinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s president and chief executive officer, will continue in his role as CEO of Bank of North Carolina and as president and CEO of the bankâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s parent company, BNC Bancorp. Like Callicutt, Montgomery has been with the bank since

its inception. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Rickâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s elevation to this role is part of our succession plan, and is in recognition of his 18 years of hard work and dedication to Bank of North Carolina,â&#x20AC;? Montgomery said. Callicutt, who is in his 29th year of banking, joined Bank of North Carolina as senior vice

president and senior lender in 1991 when the financial institution was established in Thomasville with 14 employees and $4.2 million in assets. Today, Bank of North Carolina has 17 branches throughout central North Carolina, 264 employees and $1.67 billion in assets.

Our weekly meetings help us see that we are not alone in experiencing the trials and tribulations of family caregiving. For those who are laboring to do their best for their sick or disabled loved ones, let me suggest they find a Senior Information and Assistance office in their area. Another resource is the National Family Caregivers Association â&#x20AC;&#x201C; www.thefamilycaregiver.org; phone (800) 896-3650. These may be helpful in allowing caregivers mental and physical relief by connecting them with hourly in-home care services.

Travel Channel High Point Regional to film at Cancer Center gets high marks Spookywoods TRIAD SCORES ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

HIGH POINT – Would you like to see – and hear – your screams of terror captured on film? The Travel Channel on Saturday evening will be at Kersey Valley Spookywoods to film a story for its new “America Haunts” series. The episode will be aired on the cable network later this fall. Tony Wohlgemuth, president of Spookywoods, says his attraction will help the local economy – and even more so when the segment airs on The Travel Channel. “Our Halloween event

boosts the local economy with hotel reservations, restaurants and gas stations from patrons that make the traditional yearly trip from not only the Southeast region, but around the world,” he says, adding that Spookywoods has attracted visitors from as far away as New Zealand. “The last time Spookywoods was featured on national TV, we had to post directions from (Piedmont Triad International Airport) for all the out-of-state visitors.” For more information about the attraction, including directions and prices, visit www. spookywoods.com.

TRIAD — High Point Regional Health System’s Cancer Center received one of the highest scores in the Triad in a recent ranking by U.S. News and World Report. The rankings are based on several factors, including the availability of intensivists (physicians with advanced critical care board certification who specialize in treating the most seriously ill or injured patients), magnet nursing status (meets standards established by the American Nurses Credentialing Center), nurse-to-patient staffing ratios, the total volume of cancer cases treated at the facility and availability of advanced technology. Hospitals were scored on reputation, death rate, patient safety and care-related factors such as nursing and patient services. Reputation, which counted as 32.5 percent of the score, was based on three years of specialist surveys - a total of almost 10,000 physicians were asked to name five hospitals they consider among the best in their specialty for difficult cases, without taking into account cost or location.

lists reputation scores for hospitals making the top 50. A mortality index, also 32.5 percent of the score, indicates a hospital’s ability to keep patients with serious problems alive. Patient safety, new this year, made up 5 percent of the score; it indicates how well a hospital minimizes harm to patients. And a group of other care-related factors, such as nurse staffing and available technology, accounted for the remaining 30 percent. Though High Point was listed among the more than 900 hospitals that were included in the survey, only the top 50 in the nation were ranked. Among North Carolina hospitals in the top 50 were Duke University Medical Center (ninth), Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center (26th) and University of North Carolina Hospitals at Chapel Hill (37th). “Our Cancer Center provides patients and their families world class care during what may be anyone’s most difficult health challenge,” said Janet Forrest, manager of Patient Rights and Oncology Services at High Point Regional. “And for a reputable publication to score us among the highest in the state is a significant accomplishment.”

Special kind of back arthritis strikes young men

ear Dr. Donohue: My son has ankylosing spondylitis. He has been told it is arthritis of the vertebrae and should plateau around 50 years of age. Your comments, please. My son must take painkillers every day of his life. – S.P.

BLONDIE

“Ankylosing” (ANNkuh-LOW-sing) indicates that joints have become immobile because bone has fused them into a solid mass. “Spondylitis” (SPAWNduh-LITE-iss) signifies that the backbones are involved – the vertebrae of the spine. This is a special kind of back arthritis, one that appears most often in late adolescence to early adulthood. In extreme cases, the process ascends to the top of the spine in the neck, and the person can hardly bend his back or his neck. In truth, the extent of AS cannot be predicted with accuracy. The hips and the shoulders also can partake of this arthritic process. For a small number of patients, it causes eye inflammation, and sometimes, the heart’s aortic valve develops a leak. All of this sounds terrible, but the picture is not so bleak. Cure can’t be spoken of, but control can. The first medicines used are the nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs – Motrin, Aleve, Advil and many more. Physical therapy treatments

and a supervised exercise program keep the spine flexible. Other HEALTH medicines are availDr. Paul able. The Donohue greatest ■■■ breakthrough in treatment is the advent of new drugs with a novel mode of action. These medicines block the body chemicals that cause the joint inflammation and destruction. They are infliximab (Remicade), etanercept (Enbrel) and adalimumab (Humira). Not everyone with AS requires these newer medicines. Those who don’t respond to standard treatment or who are severely afflicted are candidates for them. They have to be used with caution, as they can have serious side effects. Dear Dr. Donohue: My husband is 28, and as far as we know, he is healthy. His father had a heart attack at age 27. His paternal grandfather passed away at 37 from a heart attack. When we told the doctor about his family history, he did nothing and told us not to worry. Well, I am worried. Why would a doctor not be concerned? – P.C. In your husband’s case, worry is justified. Family history repeats

itself. His father and grandfather had heart attacks at young ages. Your husband has to pull out all stops so that he doesn’t suffer a similar fate. He has to stay on the slim side; watch his cholesterol, blood pressure and blood sugar; eat a low-fat, low-cholesterol diet (one consisting mainly of fruits, vegetables and grains); and not even think about smoking. He has to stay active. I can’t answer why your doctor isn’t concerned. Your husband would benefit from a second opinion, and might even consider having a stress test. Dear Dr. Donohue: Will you say something about male breast cancer? My right breast is painful, and when I push on the nipple, it hurts more. – R.C. Men can get breast cancer, but not as frequently as women do. For every man who comes down with it, 150 women do. Close to 80 percent of male breast cancer starts as a painless lump beneath the nipple. The nipple might be sore, and it may sink into the breast tissue. Mammograms and ultrasounds are as useful in detecting male breast cancer as they are in detecting female breast cancer. You don’t mention a lump, which makes breast cancer unlikely. All the same, see the family doctor to find out why your nipple and breast are painful.

Travolta recounts son’s death at trial

Phillips says she had sex with her dad CHICAGO (AP) – Former child star Mackenzie Phillips said Wednesday her father, John Phillips, who was a leader of the 1960s pop group the Mamas and the Papas, raped her when she was a teenager and that her sexual relationship with him later became what she termed “consensual.” Mackenzie Phillips, 49, writes in her new book, “High on Arrival,” that she had sex with her father on the night before she was to get married

in 1979 at age 19, according to People magazine. Phillips wrote in her book: Phillips “I woke up that night from a blackout to find myself having sex with my own father.” She told “The Oprah Winfrey Show” in an interview that aired Wednesday that her siblings “definitely have a problem with this.” Win-

NASSAU, Bahamas (AP) – John Travolta said Wednesday he tried desperately to save the life of his seizureprone son and made perhaps his first public description of the boy as autistic as Jett he testified in the trial of two people accused of trying to blackmail him. With his wife, Kelly Preston, looking on inside the Nassau courtroom, Travolta said that he performed CPR on his 16-year-old son Jett after a nanny alerted him the teen had fallen ill at a family vacation home on Grand Bahama island. Jett Travolta later died from a seizure. “I ran downstairs with my wife to help my son,” Travolta said. Travolta is the star witness at the trial of two people – paramedic Tarino Lightbourne and former Bahamian Sen. Pleasant Bridgewater – who are accused of trying to extort $25 million from the movie star.

Deacs suspend Petit-Jean ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

WINSTON-SALEM – Wake Forest head football coach Jim Grobe suspended reserve free safety Junior Petit-Jean for the remainder of the season on Wednesday. A one-sentence release from the school said

the suspension was for an unspecified violation of team rules. Petit-Jean, a redshirt sophomore from Naples, Fla., had four tackles this season – one in the season opener against Baylor and three Saturday against Elon. He had two tackles in nine games as a freshman last year.

Petit-Jean was listed No. 2 on the depth chart behind junior Alex Frye. Wake Forest spokesman Steve Shutt said that coaches are expected to announce tomorrow who will be Frye’s main backup when the Deacons play at Boston College on Saturday.

The 68-year-old Cox, a four-time Manager of the Year, agreed to a one-year contract extension for 2010, the Braves announced b e f o r e Wednesday night’s g a m e against the New York Mets. He Cox will start a five-year consulting agreement to advise the team in baseball operations after he steps down as manager. “They asked me to come back, and I said I would do it for one more year, and we’ll announce the retirement along with it. It’s the only way I think I’m ever going to walk away from the game, is to go ahead and say I’m going to, and then I’ve got to,” Cox said. “There’s no turning back now – win, lose or draw. Whatever happens next year is going to be it.” A cigar-smoking baseball lifer, Cox managed the Braves from 1978-81, switched to manage Toronto from 1982-85, then returned to manage Atlanta in 1990. He began Wednesday with 2,408 regular-season wins as a manager, fourth behind Connie Mack (3,731), John McGraw (2,763) and Tony La Russa (2,550). Cox and Joe McCarthy are the only managers with six 100-win regular seasons.

The numbers that Sanchez is putting up are not eye-popping – 32 completions on 53 attempts for 435 yards with two touchdowns and one pick – but he’s been an effective leader. Naturally, Sanchez has created a media frenzy in New York. It’s a little early to book him for a gueststarring role on “The Brady Bunch” – no, wait, that was Joe Namath about 40 years ago. Any comparisons between Sanchez and

Broadway Joe are way, way premature. I’ll be interested to see how the hotshot from Southern Cal performs the next few weeks. The Jets play host to Tennessee on Sunday, then visit New Orleans and Miami the following two weeks. These games should give us a better sense of how Sanchez and the Jets stack up in the NFL pecking order.

– MARK MCKINNEY ENTERPRISE SPORTS EDITOR

Former Ragsdale High star Brittany Hunsucker has played well for Greensboro College this fall after a season at Barton College in Wilson as well as Guilford Technical Community College. The 5-foot-9 middle blocker graduated from Ragsdale in 2007 after a fouryear career for coach Audrey Gore. Hunsucker enjoyed three all-conference campaigns and was conference player of the year as a junior. She played one season at Barton, a Division II school in the Conference Carolinas, before picking up at GTCC last fall and leading the second-year program to a strong showing in the junior college ranks. Her transfer to Greensboro, the D-III USA South school, was announced prior to the season by Pride coach Jean Lojko Hunsucker, who is majoring in athletic training, leads the Pride in blocks, is second in kills and digs, and third in assists. She and former Southern Guilford standout Kacie Hyatt – the Pride leader in kills and serving – have kept Greensboro competitive this season even as the team has struggled to a 3-12 start.

BRUSSELS (AP) — Just 16 months away from tennis was enough for Justine Henin. She’ll return in January ahead of the Australian Open, complete with a new serve in her quest for a Wimbledon title. It’s the only Grand Slam she didn’t win in a 10-year career that produced nearly $20 million in earnings. Henin’s goal is to achieve 70-percent success on her first serves. That improvement, along with her daunting whip backhand, will have opponents scrambling. On the comeback trail, the former No. 1 player will clash again with fellow Belgian Kim Clijsters, who won the U.S. Open this month just three tournaments into her comeback after more than two years away. Henin wants to play at least until the 2012 London Olympics. By then, she hopes to have won Wimbledon — the only Grand Slam title missing on her resume of four French Open titles, two U.S. Opens and one Australian Open championship. She won singles gold at the 2004 Athens Games.

balls during the portion of practice open to reporters. The Cowboys refused to say what else the starting running back did or didn’t do because they don’t have to put out an injury report until today, because their next game is Monday night.

Yankees take two of three from Angels THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ANAHEIM, Calif. – A.J. Burnett struck out 11 in just his second win since July, and the New York Yankees won a series at Anaheim for the first time since May 2004 with a 3-2 victory over Los Angeles on Wednesday. The Yankees, eliminated by the Angels in the first round of the playoffs in 2002 and 2005, lost 18 of their last 23 games in Anaheim before winning back-to-back games in less than 24 hours. On Tuesday night, New York became the first major league team to clinch a playoff berth. If the Red Sox lose later Wednesday or today, New York would clinch the AL East title by winning two of three at home against Boston this weekend. Robinson Cano hit a two-run single, and Melky Cabrera followed with an RBI double in the fourth inning. Ian Kennedy walked two batters and hit another in the eighth before escaping the jam in his first major league appearance since surgery to remove an aneurysm below his right biceps. Gary Matthews Jr. and Bobby Abreu drove in

runs for the Angels, who didn’t help their faint hopes of catching New York for the majors’ best record. Los Angeles dropped 61⁄2 games behind the Yankees with three losses to New York in the last 10 days, including a makeup game at Yankee Stadium last week.

BLUE JAYS 7, ORIOLES 3 TORONTO – Travis Snider homered and had two RBIs, Scott Richmond won for the first time since June 24 and the Toronto Blue Jays completed a three-game sweep, beating the Baltimore Orioles 7-3 on Wednesday night.

TIGERS 11, INDIANS 3 CLEVELAND – Carlos Guillen hit two of Detroit’s three home runs to help Rick Porcello and the Tigers defeat Cleveland 11-3 on Wednesday night, the Indians’ season-high 10th straight loss.

RAYS 5, MARINERS 4 ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. – B.J. Upton had three RBIs, including a go-ahead two-run single in the eighth, to help the Tampa Bay Rays beat the Seattle Mariners 5-4 on Wednesday night.

Felton accepts Bobcats’ 1-year, $5.5 million deal CHARLOTTE (AP) – Raymond Felton signed Charlotte’s one-year, $5.5 million qualifying offer on Wednesday after the restricted free agent was unable to come to teams on a long-term contract. The move means the Bobcats starting point guard will report on time to training camp next week, then become an unrestricted free agent next summer. “Raymond didn’t want

this to be a distraction to his teammates or to the organization going into training camp. So we just decided it was time,” agent Kevin Bradbury said. “Raymond wanted to move on. He didn’t want this to linger anymore.” Felton averaged 14.2 points and 6.7 assists last season and won over new coach Larry Brown, who said keeping Felton was a top offseason priority.

Juan Pablo Montoya has his eyes focused on the prize as he enters week 2 of the Chase for the Championship.

Montoya gears for strong Chase I

s it possible that Juan Pablo Montoya demonstrated with an impressive performance Sunday at New Hampshire International Speedway that he did indeed drive conservatively in an effort to make the Chase for the Championship and he took the bridle off and will be a sleeper contender for the title? Or was his performance just a product of his Earnhardt Ganassi team excelling at providing fast cars for flat tracks, something that was building cars at flat tracks – a continuation of Montoya dominating the Brickyard 400 at Indianapolis until he was penalized for speeding on pit road with just a handful of laps remaining? Montoya confirmed during a teleconference this week that his team’s main focus was being consistent enough to get in the Chase for the first time. He was also unimpressive, finishing in the top-five twice before getting a disappointing third on Sunday. “For us it was making the Chase,” Montoya said. “There were teams you knew that were going to be in and we were doing all that was possible to make it in. So the approach was very different. For us, our goal this year was making the Chase and we did so. Anything that happens from now to the end of the year, it’s a bonus.” That he made the Chase was a surprise, given that his car owner Chip Ganassi shut down two of his three teams last year because of lack of sponsorship and wound up merging with the struggling Dale Earnhardt Inc., which also shut down two of its four teams at the end of the last year.

The resulting Earnhardt Ganassi Racing dropped another car early this season, leaving just Montoya and DEI holdover Martin Truex Jr. Montoya also went through SPORTS three crew chief changes last season Greer before Ganassi stuck Smith with Brian Pattie. ■■■ “There was a lot of changes in the team that were not positive,” Montoya said. “And so we went through three crew chiefs in a year and that’s not easy. It’s not easy at all. To bounce from that, to where we are, it’s been incredible. But I never thought Chip was going to leave or anything.” On top of the changes, this is the first year that Montoya has looked liked Chase material since Ganassi lured him to leave the Formula One ranks to join the Cup circuit. Montoya was expected to struggle early as he adapted to the heavier stock cars and he did. He managed to win as a rookie in 2007 at Infineon Raceway, which was not a surprise given his road racing background. Other than that, he had just four more top-five finishes and eight top-10 finishes coming into this season. “The only reason Chip hired me to come and do this is because he believed I could do the job,” Montoya said. “At the same time I didn’t come to NASCAR thinking, you know, I just want to have fun and relax. I do want to have fun and relax but when it’s time to go, time to go.” Now in the Chase, Montoya’s

motto is that it is time to go. He certainly did last week, winning the pole on Friday and leading 105 of the first 162 laps on Sunday before falling back because of pit stops. Montoya fought back to second, putting him beside Mark Martin for a restart with three laps to go. On the final lap, Martin blocked Montoya going into the first turn in a manner that stymied Montoya’s momentum to the point that Montoya fell into a battle with Denny Hamlin for second. Before Sunday, Montoya had two top fives for the season. “For the Chase, you know, we have to bring our A Game, and we did,” Montoya said. “There’s no holding back, nothing, we have to go. We have to try to go every week. Some weeks are going to be better than others but time to go.” The finish shot Montoya from a tie for ninth in points into fourth, 55 behind Martin and 20 behind Jimmie Johnson and Denny Hamlin. Being in the championship battle, he is not sure if his team can contend for the title. All he wants is to have a shot when it counts. “We are doing the best we can and hopefully we are going to be good enough to at least fight for it,” Montoya said. “We don’t have the experience yet or anything. It’s our first Chase, and we just want to make sure we don’t leave anything on the table. By the time Miami comes, we want to make sure, you know, we gave our best to make sure we gave ourselves a chance. That’s all we can do.” gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3519

IndyCar title comes down to final race MOTEGI, Japan (AP) – Target Chip Ganassi teammates Scott Dixon and Dario Franchitti head into the final IndyCar race of the season in a winner-take-all showdown. Things are a little more complicated for Ryan Briscoe after a mishap in the Indy Japan 300 dropped the Team Penske driver to third place in the standings. Dixon, the 2008 champion, won the next-tolast race of the season in Japan to move into first place in the standings ahead of Franchitti and Briscoe. For the fourth straight year, the championship will come down to the final race of the season, which will take place at Homestead-Miami Speedway on Oct. 10.

“It’s what we expect for IndyCar,” Dixon said following his big win in Japan. “It’s going to come down to the final lap, the final corner of Miami.” Dixon leads the standings with 570 points followed by Franchitti, who has 565. If either driver wins the final race, they will take the championship title. Briscoe went into Saturday’s race at Motegi with a 25-point lead over Franchitti and a 32-point lead over Dixon, but saw his chances to win in Japan – and perhaps take his first championship – dashed by a miscue midway through the race when he ran over the large cone marking the end of pit lane and sideswiped the inside wall.

Maryland needs to get defensive in a hurry COLLEGE PARK, Md. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The Maryland Terrapins have surrendered 119 points this season, the worst threegame stretch since Ralph Friedgen took over as coach before the 2001 season. Friedgen hired defensive coordinator Don Brown in January with hopes that the success Brown had during five seasons at Massachusetts would continue at Maryland. So far, it hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t happened. Maryland ranks 111th among 120 Football Bowl Subdivision teams in total defense, yielding 466 yards per game. The opposition is averaging 6.79 yards per play, which goes a long way toward explaining why the Terrapins (1-2) lost to California by 39, squeezed past James Madison 38-35 in overtime and fell to Middle Tennessee State at home last week. If things donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t improve in a hurry, beginning Saturday at home against Rutgers, Marylandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s school-record run of three straight bowl bids will be in serious jeopardy.

HPU men fall 3-2 to Wildcats ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

HIGH POINT â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The High Point University menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s soccer team took a twogoal lead into halftime but was unable to hang on as Davidson rallied for a 3-2 victory Tuesday night in Vert Stadium. Freshman Stephen Clowes and redshirt freshman Ryan Bennett each scored in the opening 45 minutes for the Panthers. The Panthers offensive attack started strong, maintaining pressure on the Wildcats backline and creating numerous opportunities. In the 10th minute, Clowes staked High Point to a 1-0 lead with a header to the lower left corner of the goal off a corner kick by senior Matt Tuttle. The goal came at the end of a run of three-straight HPU corner kicks. The assist was Tuttleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 14th of his career, which ties Chris Archer for the school Division I record for career assists. Bennett converted a penalty kick to give the Panthers a 2-0 lead heading into halftime. Davidson tied the game on consecutive headers off corner kicks by Alex Caskey and Yannick Pilgrim in the 51st and 53rd minutes. Pilgrim scored the game-winner 13 minutes later when he took a long ball down the right side and beat sophomore goalkeeper Michael Chesler oneon-one from close range to give Davidson a 3-2 lead. The Panthers pressed forward after the second Pilgrim goal but were unable to find an equalizer. Several HPU shots were blocked before reaching goal as Davidson packed the box to preserve its onegoal lead. High Point falls to 43 on the season while Davidson improves to 5-1-0. The Panthers conclude their three-game home stand on Saturday at 7 p.m. when they welcome East Tennessee State to Vert Stadium.

Tiger only looks at one trophy at East Lake

Atlanta quarterback Matt Ryan, who starred at Boston College, returns to his old stomping grounds for Sundayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s game against the Patriots.

Ryan welcomes Boston homecoming FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no question Boston is Tom Bradyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s town, but another favorite son is returning for what he hopes will be a successful homecoming. Former Boston College standout Matt Ryan returns to Foxborough on Sunday as a rising star for the Atlanta Falcons, who will face Bradyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Patriots. Ryan, the 2008 NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year, has enjoyed a strong start for the 2-0 Falcons and is coming off his first career game with three touchdown passes. Falcons fullback Ovie Mughelli predicted on Wednesday that Ryanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s No. 2 jersey â&#x20AC;&#x153;will be everywhereâ&#x20AC;? at Gillette Stadium. Ryan wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t so certain. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sure there will be some people from up there who remember the time at BC and were fans of BC, but having said

that, they are loyal fans up there, too,â&#x20AC;? Ryan said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They love their Patriots. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not expecting to see too many No. 2 jerseys running around up there.â&#x20AC;? Ryan added that Boston â&#x20AC;&#x153;is certainly a place that I love, and I had a great experience in college.â&#x20AC;? Ryan said he never visited a Patriots practice while at Boston College and has never met Brady. But he said he relished the chance to watch Brady win two Super Bowls during his time at BC. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was pretty cool to watch, no doubt about it,â&#x20AC;? Ryan said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They had a great run while I was in college. His play was certainly unbelievable. It was a great time to be a quarterback in that area, to be a college quarterback and to watch what Tom was doing. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve always been impressed with how well he has played and how he has handled himself.â&#x20AC;?

Vick ready for first regular-season game PHILADELPHIA (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Superman. The Wildcat Originator. Michael Vick has the nicknames ready. All he needs is a chance to play. After spending 18 months in federal prison and sitting out the first two games as the final league penalty for his role in a dogfighting ring, Vick is eligible to play his first regular-season game in 33 months when the Philadelphia Eagles host the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday. The three-time Pro Bowl quarterback was so excited Wednesday he ran full speed in the morning walkthrough. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been watching football from afar the last two years and this is a dream

come true to me,â&#x20AC;? Vick said. His role is uncertain because the Eagles have a complicated situation at quarterback. Donovan McNabb did not practice Wednesday because of a broken rib that forced him to miss last Sundayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 48-22 loss to New Orleans. Kevin Kolb would make his second straight start if McNabb, injured in the season opener at Carolina, canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t play against the Chiefs. Kolb made his first NFL start against the Saints, throwing for 391 yards, two touchdowns and three interceptions. Coach Andy Reid isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sure whether Vick or Jeff Garcia would be the backup quarterback.

NFL has no plans to lighten blackout rules NEW YORK (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; When Hurricane Katrina devastated New Orleans, the NFL waived its television blackout policy so Saints fans could watch even if games moved to Baton Rouge didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sell out. Now, under extraordinary circumstances of a different sort â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a recession that has made football tickets an unaffordable luxury for many â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the league isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t budging. The NFL says it has no plans to lift its blackout rules because of the economy. So if games donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sell out â&#x20AC;&#x201C; as could be the case in up to three cities this weekend â&#x20AC;&#x201C; local fans

wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be able to watch on TV, whether at home or in a bar. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People are quick to say, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Can you make an exception here?â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? said Howard Katz, the leagueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s senior vice president for broadcasting and media operations. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re trying to be really cautious and make sure we do the right thing for long-term growth.â&#x20AC;? He acknowledged tickets are steep â&#x20AC;&#x201C; an average of $74.99 this season â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and times are hard. â&#x20AC;&#x153;To the person who lost his or her job in Detroit, this is every bit as difficult a situation to deal with as Katrina might have been in

New Orleans,â&#x20AC;? Katz said. But he argued itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s impossible to know how each fan arrives at the decision to buy a ticket or not and said the blackout policy is crucial to filling stadiums. Under the rule, a game must be sold out 72 hours in advance before it may be aired in any TV market within 75 miles of the stadium. Club seats and suites donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t count in the equation.

ATLANTA (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; So many scenarios. So many good players. So much money on the line. Tiger Woods is keeping it so simple. He tees it up Thursday in the Tour Championship against a 30-man field at East Lake. His goal is to shoot the lowest score. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You always have the same approach and same attitude that you try and win every tournament you enter,â&#x20AC;? Woods said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Whether itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a regular tour event, a playoff event, World Golf Championship, Players, whatever it may be, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the same intensity. You bring the same attitude to play. ... You win it, and you take care of everything else.â&#x20AC;? Everything else includes a $10 million bonus â&#x20AC;&#x201C; $9 million in cash â&#x20AC;&#x201C; for capturing the FedEx Cup, which in its third season appears to have finally delivered a compelling conclusion. Woods is the No. 1 seed by virtue of his five PGA Tour wins that put him atop the standings, and a sixth victory in a playoff event two weeks ago at the BMW. The next four seeds â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Steve Stricker, Jim Furyk, Zach Johnson and Heath Slocum â&#x20AC;&#x201C; donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to look at a leaderboard. If they win the Tour Championship, they win the FedEx Cup. The points can get confusing, and there are a couple of wild possibilities. â&#x20AC;˘Furyk and Padraig Harrington can capture the FedEx Cup without having won a single tournament all year. â&#x20AC;˘Marc Leishman can win the FedEx Cup provided Woods finishes 10th or worse, and the next four seeds finish fifth or worse.

How did Leishman get in this position? Furthermore, who is Leishman? Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a PGA Tour rookie from Australia with a strong swing and beautiful touch with the putter. He was on the verge of being eliminated from the playoffs outside Boston three weeks ago until making an eagle on the final hole. His only way into the Tour Championship was to finish third in Chicago, and he played bogey-free the final round with Woods at his side to tie for second. â&#x20AC;˘Slocum could win the FedEx Cup by winning the Tour Championship. He wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even sure he would make the 125-man field at the start of the playoffs until his wife did the math and realized he qualified at No. 124 by two points. A week later, he won The Barclays over a worldclass cast of runner-ups â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Woods, Harrington, Stricker and Ernie Els. â&#x20AC;˘And the most bizarre scenario of all? There could be two suddendeath playoffs on Sunday â&#x20AC;&#x201C; one to decide the Tour Championship, another to decide the FedEx Cup. It might even be the same two players. Imagine Furyk and Scott Verplank tied after 72 holes. They would have a playoff for the Tour Championship. If Verplank were to win, that would leave them tied in the FedEx Cup standings, and they would return to the par3 18th for a playoff with a much bigger payoff. Furyk has heard all the possibilities and is ready to stick a peg in the soggy turf of East Lake. The points and possibilities might be hard to digest. Still, the Tour Championship is significant for the first time in six years.

Williamsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; team wins by six shots at Olde Homeplace ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

WALLBURG â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Wayne Williams, Bob Ingold, Duffy Dieffenbecker and Chigger Morrow shot 10-under to win Wednesdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s High Point Seniors Golf Association playday by six strokes. Team score was the two best balls on each hole. Team pairings

were drawn from a hat. Marvin Hiatt, Max Oakley, Bob Crouch and Gerald Coble placed second at 4-under, followed by Steve Deal, David Goodson, Duke Johns and Doug Diggs in third at 2-under. Dick Angel, Les Pruden, Ron Kennedy and Len Perkowski took fourth at 1-under.

Stocks end lower in erratic trading day NEW YORK (AP) — Investors were encouraged by the Fed’s latest improved assessment of the economy, but not enough to propel the Dow Jones industrial average past 10,000. Stocks closed lower Wednesday as a brief rally followed the Fed’s economic statement and then faded. The Dow came within 82 points of crossing 10,000 for the first time since October, but ended the day with a loss of 81. Stocks often trade erratically on days when the Fed meets to

plete buying those securities by the end of this year. It marked the second time since August that the Fed has opted to slow some of its extraordinary support to revive the economy and spur Americans to boost spending. It shows that Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke and his colleagues are increasingly confident the recovery will take hold. In a more upbeat assessment, the Fed said: “Economic activity has picked up following its severe

downturn.” When the Fed last met in August, policymakers declared that economic activity was “leveling out.” Even with the pickup in economic activity, Fed policymakers predict inflation will remain “subdued for some time.” To foster the recovery, the Fed also decided to hold the target range for its key bank lending rate at a record low of between zero and 0.25 percent. It again pledged to keep rates there

“for an extended period.” Economists predict that means through the rest of this year, and perhaps into part of next year. Holding that bank lending rate steady means commercial banks’ prime lending rate — used to peg rates on home equity loans, certain credit cards and other consumer loans — will stay at about 3.25 percent, the lowest in decades. The goal is to entice people and businesses to step up spending to aid economic growth.

Reform continues to divide lawmakers the agency but limiting its reach. Under Frank’s plan, retailers would escape agency oversight, as would real estate brokers, lawyers, auto dealers and other industries. Frank’s proposal also would not subject companies to a requirement that they offer standardized financial products known as a “plain vanilla” option. In congressional testimony, Geithner said the

administration was supportive of the changes and called them “a pragmatic helpful way to make sure you have the choice for protection.” “There are lots of different ways to make sure that you don’t create too much unbridled authority that would be damaging to what’s an important part of our financial system,” Geithner said.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner said Wednesday he supports Democratic efforts to narrow the scope of a new consumer protection agency, ceding ground on the centerpiece of President Barack Obama’s proposal to tighten the rules governing financial institutions.

WASHINGTON (AP) — With the economy on the mend, the Federal Reserve on Wednesday said it is slowing the pace of a program to lower mortgage rates and prop up the housing market. The Fed decided to stretch out its goal of buying $1.45 trillion in mortgage-backed securities and debt issued by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and Ginnie Mae until the end of the first quarter of 2010.

Wii nears price cut by $50 to $200 NEW YORK (AP) — A $50 price cut may be imminent for Nintendo’s popular Wii gaming console. Tech blog Engadget said in a posting late Tuesday night that the Wii, which has cost about $250 since its 2006 launch, will see its price drop to $200 beginning Sunday. Engadget, which is owned by Time Warner Inc.’s AOL, posted what it said was a leaked memo from Best Buy Co. talking about the price drop.

AutoZone shares tumble as profit slips NEW YORK (AP) — Auto parts retailer AutoZone Inc. said Wednesday its fiscal fourth-quarter profit fell 3.1 percent, citing tough comparisons to a prioryear period that included an extra week of sales. Its shares fell more than 6 percent in midday trading. Bill Rhodes, AutoZone’s chairman, president and chief executive, said consumers remained focused on trying to save money during the quarter by keeping their cars on the road longer and spending more on basic maintenance. Rhodes added that he expects the same trend to continue for the near future.

Ford to make low-cost compact car in India NEW DELHI (AP) — Ford Motor Co. unveiled a made-in-India compact car and flagged expanded production in China as it seeks to boost sales in Asia, a region the U.S. automaker has hardly dented but is counting on to drive growth. The four-door “Figo”, which is Italian slang for ‘cool’, will go on sale in India during the first quarter of next year, Ford executives told a press conference Wednesday. There are also plans to export the low-cost car to other Asian countries.

Mount Airy lands new plant MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

MOUNT AIRY –Mount Airy’s small-town atmosphere enabled it to land a plant project from an Arkansas manufacturing company. Central States Manufacturing Inc., based near Fort Smith, Ark., said Tuesday that it will create 45 jobs and spend at least $4.5 million on capital investments at the plant. The company makes metal building components for post-frame, commercial and residential customers. It already has plants in Alabama, Arkansas, In-

diana and Texas. Operations at the Mount Airy plant will include forming, cutting and assembling coated steel parts and panels. ‘’We are very excited about expanding our operations into North Carolina and to the eastern region of our market,” Donna Leger, the president of Central States, said in a prepared statement. ‘’The people we have encountered in the Surry County area match our company culture and our values, and we couldn’t be more pleased with our selection of Mount Airy as our fifth plant site,” Leger said.

Wyeth sues FDA to block rival TRENTON, N.J. (AP) – Drugmaker Wyeth on Wednesday sued the Food and Drug Administration to block the sale of a generic rival to its intravenous antibiotic Zosyn, claiming the generic is not an equivalent product and could harm critically ill patients. Madison, N.J.-based Wyeth filed a federal lawsuit against the FDA, seeking both a temporary restraining order and a preliminary injunction. The lawsuit seeks to prevent Orchid Chemicals & Pharmaceuticals Ltd. of Chennai, India, from

selling a generic version of Zosyn that the FDA approved last week. Wyeth’s head of global medical affairs, Joe Camardo, said patient safety is at stake and that Orchid’s product could lead to preventable medical errors. Many are critically ill patients with very serious infections, he said. So hospital workers are rushing to set up an intravenous line to rapidly feed in both Zosyn and, often, a standard IV solution to boost blood volume and maintain blood pressure.

Fallen mutual fund makes distribution

General Mills profit jumps PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) – General Mills Inc., the maker of Cheerios and Yoplait yogurt, said Wednesday that its fiscal first-quarter profit surged 51 percent on lower ingredient costs and strong demand for its products. The results, which well exceeded expectations, prompted the food maker to lift its full-year earn-

ings outlook. And shares of the Minneapolis-based company rose $2.58, or more than 4 percent, to $63.55 in midday trading. The company earned $420.6 million, or $1.25 per share for the quarter, up from $278.5 million, or 79 cents per share, a year ago. Excluding an expense related to commod-

ity positions, profit was $1.28 per share and easily topped the $1.03-pershare estimate of analysts polled by Thomson Reuters. Analysts’ estimates normally exclude one-time items. Like many food makers, General Mills benefited from lower costs for fuel and ingredients, which hit record highs last year.

BOSTON – A moneymarket mutual fund that held more than $60 billion before it notoriously “broke the buck” a year ago said Wednesday it will hand out $1 billion in a fifth distribution to investors from the fund’s remaining assets. The $1 billion distribution, the smallest of five partial payouts since the Reserve Primary Fund’s collapse, will be made to shareholders on or about Oct. 2, said New York-based Reserve Management Co., which ran the fund. After the distribution, it will hold about $3.5 billion, not including a separate $3.5 billion reserve created to cover pending litigation costs.

Oil prices dip below $69 per barrel NEW YORK – Oil prices tumbled below $69 per barrel Wednesday on a U.S. government report showing demand for energy remains weak. Benchmark crude for November delivery fell nearly 4 percent, or $2.78, to $68.98 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. The contract added $1.83 a barrel to settle at $71.76 on Tuesday.

Ireland cha-chas from board room to the dance floor

NEW EXHIBIT

–

BY MICHAEL CIDONI ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER

ANTA BARBARA, Calif. – Elizabeth Taylor watches “Dancing With the Stars.” And if her longtime friend and business partner Kathy Ireland survives long enough into the show’s new season, Taylor’s presence – and presents – will be apparent. “For some of the nights, we have to come with our own clothes, and that is not something I am used to doing in my life,” explained Ireland, speaking during a break in rehearsals for the series, which returned to ABC Monday. “And I was so blown away,” Ireland continued. “The other day I came home and there was a big package at my door. And I opened it up, and it is this gorgeous Valentino gown from my dear friend, Elizabeth Taylor, who said, ‘I know you are so busy trying to learn how to dance and I know how stressful that is for you.’ She took the liberty of putting together a complete outfit for me with the accessories.” The 46-year-old former swimsuit model-turned-brand-mogul says the dress is lavender, and “stunning.” And as for the 77-year-old Taylor? “She is doing excellent,” Ireland said. “She is working away, busy as ever. And she is my inspiration.” Just as Taylor found a millionsgenerating second career by lending her name to perfume lines and designing jewelry, Ireland graduated from modeling and acting and into very big business. Starting with Kmart socks in 1993, Ireland’s company now brings in $1.5 billion a year in 20 countries. Knowing that, the

The series premiered on Monday. married mother of three’s days as a “Sports Illustrated” supermodel and “Loaded Weapon 1” actress seem like another lifetime ago. “I was never that super and I was certainly never an actress, and I have the movies to prove it,” Ireland said, smiling. “Well, I knew she was a hottie,” joked Ireland’s dance-pro partner Tony Dovolani, who sat beside Ireland for the interview. “At the beginning she was funny,” he recalled. “She came in telling me – go ahead list them: ‘Tone deaf, no balance, never walked in heels, two knee surgeries and a foot surgery,’ correct?

And you get dizzy when you spin, yeah? These are the things she told me at the beginning.” Proceeds from Ireland’s “Dancing” gig will go charity, with potential hundreds of thousands of dollars to be raised for, among others, the Elizabeth Taylor HIV/ AIDS Foundation. Just days before the premiere, Ireland didn’t even break a sweat as she and Dovolani ran through a complex Salsa. Noted Dovolani, “Today I used a sentence that was kind of interesting – I said, ‘You are no longer my student. You are my dance partner at this point. So it is time for us to go out there and

fun with each other. So, we are going to carry each other.’ She is going to make me look good, too.” Not if the competition has its way. Among the other ninth-season stars: politician Tom DeLay, reality-show daughter Kelly Osbourne, and singer Donny Osmond. “I think Donny does come with a huge following,” commented Dovolani. “Just his family,” quipped Ireland, adding “I think we will have to distract his family – maybe with ... We will come up with something to keep them busy that night so they are not voting.”

YOUR COMMUNITY. YOUR NEWSPAPER.

ROME (AP) – Frescoes that once adorned Roman villas are going on display in a new exhibit that shows the tastes of ancient Rome’s wealthy through landscapes and the representation of gods and goddesses. The exhibit “Roman Imperial Painting,” which opens Thursday, follows the development of Roman painting over the centuries and its influence on Medieval and Renaissance art, officials said Tuesday. The exhibit at the Scuderie del Quirinale, a museum fashioned from the stables of Rome’s Quirinal Palace, runs through January 17. It features some 100 works, some 2,000 years old, mainly fragments of decorations that used to cover entire walls in opulent homes, as well as portraits, some on glass. The frescoes depict mythological scenes, landscapes and goddesses clad in veils on a darker background, as if they were floating on air. The landscapes feature temples, rivers, animals and shepherds, combining to depict an imaginary world rather than an actual scene, said exhibit curator Eugenio La Rocca. “Roman homes were highly decorated, the walls were like a theater scene,” La Rocca said. “One can see the will to forget the everyday life and create a world of fantasy.” Highlights include two 6.5foot-long frescoes dating to between 50-25 B.C. The frescoes – one predominantly white, the other black – feature flower garlands and small landscapes that used to adorn a villa that was discovered in Rome in the 19th century.

Thursday, Sept. 24, 2009 CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Kyle Sullivan, 21; Spencer Treat Clark, 22; Erin Chambers, 30; Nia Vardalos, 47 HAPPY BIRTHDAY: Emotions will be difficult to control and the thought of change may not be something you relish but, the more adaptable you are, the further ahead you will be. This is a year to rethink and redo whatever hasn’t worked in the past. Use your intelligence even if your emotions are trying to hold you back. Build a solid base with the knowledge you have gained from your experience. Your numbers are 4, 9, 12, 20, 23, 31, 44 ARIES (March 21-April 19): You can’t stop now. In fact you must organize so you don’t fall behind. Good things are heading your way. Don’t let anyone put added responsibilities on you. ★★★★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Put time aside for love, romance and social adventures. A change is upon you that can alter your position personally and professionally. Don’t take too long to decide what you are going to do. ★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Don’t give in to your emotions. If someone puts demands on you, back away. You can do better if you just give yourself more time. Prepare to walk away or set the standard instead of letting others rule your world. ★★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): You’ve been holding on to something or someone that shouldn’t be in your life anymore. It’s time to take on new challenges, meet new people and change the way you do things at home. There are other alternatives available. ★★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Enjoy the moment and plan to get out with friends or your lover. So much depends on how you react to the people around you. Let your personality be what grabs attention and not how much you are willing to spend. ★★★★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Set your own standard and stick to it, even if your emotions are telling you to go against what you know you should do. It will be a no-win situation if you allow anyone to ride on your coattails or push you to take on responsibilities that don’t belong to you. ★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Make some plans with a friend, relative or neighbor. The one-onone talks you have will broaden your scope regarding the possibilities that may exist in the future. Evaluate your situation and consider your options. ★★★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Don’t be too quick to say no. Consider whatever is being offered. Good things can come from the discussions you have if you are honest as well as creative about what you can bring to the table. ★★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You’ll have to answer plenty of questions if you have fallen short on the promises you’ve made in the past. Someone is likely to force you to make a decision that is uncompromising, given the current economic situation. Use your ingenuity. ★★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You have plenty to think about before you make a final decision that can alter your bankbook and your lifestyle. Keep your emotions out of the equation. Be responsible and resourceful. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You must recognize an offer being made if you want to get ahead. It may be a challenge but, in the end, you will not only learn from the experience but it will lead to other, life-changing opportunities. ★★★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Protect your interests as well as your heart and your assets. Expect someone to make a sudden and unexpected attempt to push you into a fast and untimely decision. Do not take the bait or give in to ultimatums. ★★

TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES

A good approach to problem-solving is to remember that the biggest, most intractable problem could’ve been solved when it was small. West led a trump against South’s slam, and East took the king and returned a trump, giving declarer a small problem. Without a trump lead, South might have crossruffed. As it was, he had 11 tricks and needed to set up one of dummy’s long suits. The hearts were stronger, so South took the A-K. When East threw a club, South had a big problem. He took the top spades and ruffed a spade, but when West discarded, South was a dummy entry short to set up and cash the fifth spade. One down.

BETTER TIMING South solves his problem with better timing. He has plenty of time for the hearts if they break 4-2, hence he must try the spades first: K-A and a spade ruff. South can then ruff a club, ruff a spade, cash the top hearts and take the fifth spade. If the spades broke 51, South would shift to hearts, making the slam unless that suit also broke 5-1.

---

DAILY QUESTION You hold: S A 9 6 5 3 H K Q 6 4 2 D A 8 6 C None. Dealer, at your right, opens one club. What do you say? ANSWER: Overcall one spade, planning to bid hearts next. As when opening the bidding, bid the higher-ranking long suit first. A takeout double would be ill-prepared: When you have a two-suiter, bid your suits. A “Michaels cue bid,” conventionally showing length in both majors, is possible but would suggest fewer defensive values. South dealer N-S vulnerable

ONE STAR: It’s best to avoid conflicts; work behind the scenes or read a good book. Two stars: You can accomplish but don’t rely on others for help. Three stars: If you focus, you will reach your goals. Four stars: You can pretty much do as you please, a good time to start new projects. Five stars: Nothing can stop you now. Go for the gold.
