city’s public services director. “We want them to come up with their own conclusion – a third party that is neutral.” The city also has hired the law firm of Brooks Pierce to conduct an investigation of the handling of the spill. The untreated wastewater spill of 15.93 million gallons, 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 have said the spill happened as a result of a collapsed manhole, possibly during or after a rainstorm on July 13. Yadkin Riverkeeper Dean Naujoks said the U.S. Environmental Projection Agency conducted a criminal investigation based on a report he received on Aug. 28. The

Jason Hunt sets doors inside of the Lumbee Tribal Housing Complex in Pembroke. The building in the shape of a turtle should be finished in late November.

Lumbee tribe plans for future with current investments PEMBROKE (AP) – The Lumbee Tribe of North Carolina had a little more than $2 million in assets when it formed its government nearly 10 years ago. Today, the tribe has more than $51 million in new homes, rental properties, Boys & Girls Clubs and Community Centers and a $4.5 million housing complex under construction. The Fayetteville Observer reported that tribal leaders say the projects are one way to build the tribe’s wealth and provide affordable housing for its members. “By reaching the magical number of $50 million, it assures that the tribal government will always be here,” said Tribal Chairman Jimmy Goins. “Our main purpose is the same as when we started in 2000, and that is helping the Lumbee people. We have demonstrated that by being able to bring funding into Lumbee communities.”

United Way picks third finalist for car giveaway ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

HIGH POINT – An employee of Old Dominion Freight Line is the third finalist to be named in a drawing for a new vehicle. Buddy McBride will be among 10 finalists as part the United Way’s annual Vann York Car Giveaway. Each week, a finalist will be drawn out of those who are deemed fair share donors to the United Way – donors who give at least one hour of their pay per month or a qualified percentage of their income.

The first two finalists are Darlene Bryant with Banner Pharmacaps and Kenneth Fields with Old Dominion Freight Line. The 10 finalists will gather Dec. 1 at a Vann York Auto dealership, which donates the cars, and each will select a key. The winner’s key will start the engine of a new Nissan Versa. While the winning key must start the Nissan Versa, Vann York Auto Mall allows the winner to choose from four vehicles, including the Honda Fit, a Nissan Versa, a Scion xA and a Chevy Colorado.

riverkeeper said he received a tip from an employee at the Thomasville Wastewater Treatment Plant who claimed plant officials intentionally underreported the spill totals to the media. City Manager Kelly Craver said the EPA made Thomasville employees recalculate an amount of 385,000 gallons of raw sewage that was initially reported by the city Aug. 4 to the Division of Water Quality. This week, the city was fined $35,116 for the 15.93 million gallon wastewater spill. Dean Lambeth, the city of Thomasville’s maintenance and construction superintendent, resigned Sept. 21 after Craver gave him the “opportunity to resign,”

Craver said. After receiving two phone calls about a potential spill July 31, Lambeth had “reasonable enough knowledge” then to investigate the spill instead of waiting until Aug. 3, the city manager said. Because of the spill, Thomasville officials have implemented interim procedures for suspected spills that makes all city employees part of the city’s spill detection efforts. An employee who knows of or suspects that a spill may be occurring must communicate the information to supervisors and managers in the chain of command, including the city manager, according to a city of Thomasville press release.

TOM BLOUNT: Locals provide the write stuff for you. TOMORROW

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

There are reasons why some fear a probe Robert Healy says “we should never forget George W. Bush and Richard ‘Dick’ Cheney fought tooth and nail at every turn to prevent any investigation into the events of 9/11.” Well, they had good reasons! We know today that Bush told people on four separate occasions while campaigning for president that, if he became president, he was going to invade Iraq and “take out Saddam Hussein.” (He never mentioned WMDs.) Bush came into office carrying an obsession about Saddam Hussein. When 9/11 happened, virtually the first words spoken by Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, etc. was “Iraq.” The fact that it was Osama bin Laden and al-Qaida in Afghanistan who did 9/11 made no difference whatsoever to them! When Bush took office, the Clinton administration told him that bin Laden and al-Qaida would be his greatest problem. CIA Officer Richard Clarke immediately requested a meeting with national security adviser, Condoleeza

Rice, to discuss the rising terrorist threat. She refused. For eight months, Clarke had to communicate with Rice through memos about the terrorist threat. Other agencies sent numerous warnings about the danger. On Aug. 6, Bush was briefed that bin Laden was determined to strike in the U.S. and that al-Qaida had sleeper cells here. Bush responded with a childish insult to the CIA officer. “OK, now you’ve covered your ass,” Bush said. A month later, we were hit. Ever since, the Republicans have pretended that the world began on Sept. 12, 2001. We have been bombarded with the mantra “Bush has kept us safe.” He did not. We suffered 3,000 deaths because Bush was so obsessed with Saddam Hussein that he ignored constant warnings about Osama bin Laden. No wonder they didn’t want it investigated! CARL ROUTH High Point

Life is different when one surrenders to God I agree with Steve Williams (9/27/09) that the Alcon/Pohlman controversy (irresistable force meeting immovable object) ,with no resolution, has gone far enough. In my experience, I was sprinkled as a child, grew up in and attended a church regularly. I accepted everything taught or implied such as the universal fatherhood of God and of many roads leading to the same destination. After all “they” were more educated than I. At age 13, I was received into membership with the implied understanding that, if I kept on keeping on, I was set for eternity. Surely, my good deeds would outweigh the bad ones on the scale of God’s justice. But there was still a lingering doubt that maybe I wouldn’t make it. Later on, I was exposed to more accurate Bible teaching and

learned that all have sinned and fall short of God’s expectations, thus making me a sinner, and that salvation was not earned by good works but obtained by God’s unmerited favor in acceptance of, and faith in, the finished substitutionary (for me) death of Christ on the cross, his burial, resurrection and ascension to glory as my advocate. After an intellectual and spiritual stuggle, I surrendered and changes began taking place in my life consistent with becoming a “new creation in Christ.” I then identified with Him by baptism by immersion, signifying the death, burial, and resurrection of the old “me” and rising to newness of life. Romans 6:4. Life has been different since that period many years ago that is best expressed by the old hymn by Isaac Watts as follows:When I survey the wondrous cross, on which the the prince of glory died, my richest gain I count but loss, and pour contempt on all my pride.

Parasailing deaths were preventable From Star-News of Wilmington, Sept. 28 t is unfortunate that two women had to die in a recent parasailing accident before serious consideration has been given to regulating on an industry that has largely been unregulated. But if the Coast Guard takes action to set some safety rules for parasailing businesses, perhaps other deaths may be avoided. Weather was a factor in the Aug. 28 accident off Ocean Isle Beach that took the lives of Cynthia Woodcock and Lorrie Shoup. But National Weather Service forecasters testified at a hearing recently that ample warning about rough conditions and strong winds were given well ahead of time. The weather service issued a small-craft advisory – meaning that weather conditions could be dangerous for small boats. Not long after the Tied High pulled the two women out to sea, the weather service sent out an alert about strong thunderstorms not far offshore. The two tourists died after a line that tethered them to the boat Tied High came loose. The wind blew their parachute around, and they came crashing down into the water, the boat and a nearby pier. The captain told investigators he wasn’t aware of the weather service advisories. He should have been aware, and if the Coast Guard sees fit to establish regulations, one of those should be to check weather service reports religiously, and to keep an eye out for changing weather conditions. While a parasailing industry group has strong guidelines for its members, it is not an enforcement agency. That group should be part of any discussion on new regulations, which should focus on training and safety precautions. The idea isn’t to make it more difficult for the businesses to operate – many people have safely experienced the exhilaration of parasailing – but to make it safer for the people who expect to live to tell about their high-flying adventure. Questions that also must be explored in this case include why the line detached from the tow boat and how much training the crew for N.C. Watersports received before hoisting thrill-seeking tourists into the air behind a boat. The company’s parasailing operation has been drydocked since the accident. No one meant for this terrible accident to occur. But it was preventable.

OUR MISSION

An independent newspaper

All is well in America; but we lost the games!

n the midst of all of the problems facing America and the world, we are handed, courtesy of the corporate media, the spectacle of a White House intent on ensuring that the Olympic Games comes to Chicago? Excuse me? President Barack Obama, what is your major malfunction? Oh, right, never mind. I thought for a second there we might have elected someone who was going to make a difference for our country. You know, bring about “change” and all that. Oops. Our bad. Bring on the games! Forget about the fact that we still have an economic disaster here at home. And why not? It’s such a bummer and everybody knows that. Besides, you made sure the banksters, they’re stockholder cohorts, and all of their wealthy sycophantic suck-ups got paid (albeit with taxpayer money). So why fuss, right? And now comes word that Ben Bernanke says all is well and the big bad recession is over! Oh happy day! Can you hear the hosannas calling down from on high? Well, then, no wonder you’re lobbying to bring the Olympics to town! More games for the masses! Bring on the games! Yes, Lord! All is well in America! No matter that more and more companies are closing and ever more jobs are being lost. No matter that the housing/mortgage situation continues to deteriorate with ever more people losing their homes, thus adding said people to the ever growing ranks of the homeless. No matter that more banks across the country are continuing to close. No, no matter that. Oh, but what was that about FDIC needing to borrow money from banks that they are supposed to insure to ensure that they have the funds to insure said banks? That’s right, no matter! Just keep on walking folks, there’s nothing to see here. All is well in America! Bring on the games! So, Bernanke says we’re OK, and I suppose that as president, you just go on pretending everything is OK, too. Sometimes, I have to wonder which one is the truer yes-man: you, Mr. President, or Bernanke. Well, I guess that’s

how it works in a world where perception is reality. Not that reality has anything to do with what’s going on. This is America! Bring on the games! Then recently, I saw how you were incredibly busy with all of that hoopla at the G-20 OPINION meeting. All of that Iran-mustcomply with “the rules” about Robert nuclear agreements bla-blaHealy bla, etcetera, or face certain ■■■ death or something. Either they’re with us or they’re with the terrorists, right? Smoking guns and mushroom clouds – bomb Iraq! No, now it’s Iran has nuclear facilities – do what we want or – bomb them! And we are America, damn it! No one cares about what the G-20 meeting does anyway (except for the protesters the right-wing “liberal media” didn’t bother to show). Besides, the White House wants the Olympics! Bring on the games! Now, forgive my annoyance here, but we’ve all heard this before. That being the case, Mr. (Bush Lite?) President, can we clear up one little thing? We are the nation that has attacked and occupied two other nations in close proximity to Iran, killing tens of thousands – if not hundreds of thousands – of civilians, crushing their physical and governmental infrastructures and propping up wannabe dictators in the pretense of establishing democracies, and are generally responsible for completely destabilizing the region. Maybe Iranians might be thinking of protecting themselves from imperialists who are hell-bent on redrawing the map of the Middle East? You think? But wait! Obamalympics! Chicago! (Oops, Chicago’s eliminated!) Game over. ROBERT HEALY is a veteran of the U.S. Army and graduate of the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. He lives in High Point.

Survivors in Indonesia found; 3,000 missing PADANG, Indonesia â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Ratna Kurniasari Virgo, trapped for hours under rubble, was a rare tale of survival two days after a massive Indonesian earthquake killed at least 715 people. Ambulances and the stench of decomposing bodies met volunteers from relief agencies Friday with at least 3,000 still missing.

Iran argues over nuke agreement before talks GENTHOD, Switzerland â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Fresh from a landmark meeting that put Iran nuclear talks back on track, Tehran and six world powers are already quibbling over what was agreed on ahead of follow-up talks later this month. Iran accepted a demand Thursday at the talks to allow U.N. inspectors into its covertly built enrichment plant, in a move that appeared to defuse tensions.

Mud rivers flood Sicilian city; 20 dead ROME â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Rivers of mud unleashed by heavy rains overnight flooded parts of the Sicilian city of Messina, killing at least 20 people, sweeping away cars and collapsing buildings. Hundreds were driven from their homes. Rescuers with sniffer dogs searched Friday for several people missing after the mud swamped entire villages and suburbs.

People stay on the roof as their houses remain under water Friday in Angono town, east of Manila, Philippines. A new, powerful storm named Parma approaches.

Thousands flee Philippines MANILA, Philippines â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Filipinos braced Friday to be whipped by powerful winds and pelted with rain from a second typhoon in eight days, fleeing by the tens of thousands from low-lying areas and suspending cleanup operations in the flooded capital. President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo declared a nationwide â&#x20AC;&#x153;state of calamityâ&#x20AC;? and ordered

mass evacuations of six provinces in the path of Typhoon Parma, which was expected to hit the main island of Luzon midafternoon Saturday. Parma threatened to expand more than a week of destruction in the Asia-Pacific region that has claimed more than 1,500 lives so far: an earthquake Wednesday in Indonesia; a tsunami Tuesday in the Samoan

Iraqi forces detain insurgents BAGHDAD (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Iraqi forces in Mosul have detained more than 150 suspected Sunni insurgents during an offensive in the countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s last major extremist stronghold, a senior security official said Friday. The crackdown is the latest attempt to break insurgent strength in the northern city â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and

the first wide-ranging operation since the U.S. withdrew combat forces from cities in June. While each sweep into Mosul over the past years has produced scores of arrests, they apparently have failed to significantly weaken the networks of al-Qaida in Iraq and other groups.

islands; and Typhoon Ketsana across Southeast Asia. Cedric Daep, a top disaster official in the Philippinesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Albay province, said officials there had evacuated almost 50,000 people to shelters on higher ground. Police and the military were helping people to leave flood- or landslideprone areas across the north and east.

WASHINGTON (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; At a pivotal point in the administrationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Afghanistan strategy, President Barack Obama and his top Afghan war commander met privately aboard Air Force One Friday for a talk the White House described as productive. The 25-minute meeting with Army Gen. Stanley McChrystal, aboard Air Force One as it waited to carry the president home from Denmark, gave Obama a chance to step outside the circle of advisers he has convened to study the problem of Afghanistan. His war council has been sharing differ-

ing opinions on whether the U.S. should send thousands more troops to tamp the McChrystal down Taliban, or shift to a narrower focus on al-Qaida in neighboring Pakistan. The Copenhagen meeting was an extension of those war council sessions â&#x20AC;&#x153;as we reassess and re-evaluate moving forward in Afghanistan,â&#x20AC;? White House press secretary Robert Gibbs told reporters afterward.

Hundreds leave Florida megachurch MIAMI (AP) – Hundreds of congregants have left a pioneering megachurch in Florida to form their own congregation because they were unhappy with leadership at the church that’s seen as a bedrock of the religious right. The action by the unhappy members at Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church was the culmination of a feud between loyalists to an evangelical luminary, the Rev. D. James Kennedy, and his replacement as pastor, the Rev. Tullian Tchividjian, a grandson of the Rev. Billy Graham. The new congregation met for its first service last Sunday, and organizers said more than 450 people attended. The people who formed the new congregation had lost a Sept. 20 vote to fire Tchividjian.

Rev. Lawrence Adams is shown outside his Westside Bible Church in Detroit, Wednesday. Responding to a break-in at his church Sunday evening, Adams surprised a burglar carrying out a bag of loot and shot the man in the abdomen after the man swung the bag at him. The burglar survived, for which Adams is grateful, but the reverend said he could have been hurt or killed if he had not been armed.

Piece be with you: Detroit pastors packing heat DETROIT (AP) – The Rev. Lawrence Adams teaches his flock at the Westside Bible Church to turn the other cheek. Just in case, though, the 54-year-old retired police lieutenant also wears a handgun under his robe. Adams is one of several Detroit clergymen who have taken to packing heat in the pulpit. They have committed their lives to a man who preached nonviolence and told followers to love their enemies. But they also say it’s up to them to protect their parishioners in church. “As a pastor, I’m referred to as a shepherd,” Adams said. “Shepherds have the responsibility of watching over their flock. Do I want to hurt somebody? Absolutely not!”

Responding to a break-in at his been hurt or killed if he had not church Sunday evening, Adams been armed. Detroit had the nation’s highsurprised a burglar carrying out est homicide rate last year among cities of at least 500,000 residents. The city has been losing manufacturing jobs for decades, and these days about one in four workingage residents is without a job. The northwest Detroit neighborhood surrounding Adams’ church isn’t one of the city’s most dangerous. But there have been many recent reports of crimes in a bag of loot and shot the man the area, including four burglarin the abdomen after the man ies, three auto thefts, one armed robbery and four assaults, includswung the bag at him.

are out of work and feel they have to provide for their families.” Prior to 2000, anyone who wanted to carry a concealed weapon in Michigan had to show a need to do so. Now, gun owners simply have to pass a stringent background check and complete eight hours of handgun training. “I get people from all walks of life, including pastors,” said Rick Ector, owner of Rick’s Firearm Academy in Detroit. “But it’s not anything specific to pastors. Detroit is not a very safe place.” Michigan allows pastors to decide if someone registered to carry a handgun can do so for protection inside churches.

Another letter to the Corinthians W

ho writes letters anymore? We have so many forms of communication today (including newspapers and email) that we take them for granted. Yet in the time of Jesus’ Apostles, only one form was available: written letters. For example, of the 27 “books” in the New Testament, 13 are letters Paul wrote to churches or individuals. Paul was not alone, for any church leader who desired to communicate over a distance only had one option. One of these church leaders was named Clement. Clement, also known as Clement of Rome, was a bishop of Rome (probably died before AD 100) and, according to Catholic tradition, he was the fourth pope. While his life story is sketchy, some evidence exists that he was with Paul in Philippi and may have traveled with him to Corinth. Some scholars believe he is the Clement mentioned in Philippians 4:3 (Yes, and I ask you, loyal yokefellows, help ... Clement and the rest of my fellow workers.) As bishop of Rome, Clement appar-

ently wrote letters to churches in other cities in order to encourage and/or to solve problems. The only letter we have from Clement is to the church in Corinth. Most scholars believe this letSTUDYING ter was written in the late THE CHURCH AD 90s (I and II Corinthians in the New Testament were written in the midMark 50s.) This letter, called Nickens I Clement, was very ■■■ popular in early church times. Eusebius (260-340) wrote: “We are aware that this Epistle (“Epistle” is another word for “letter”) has been publicly read in very many churches both in old times, and also in our own day.” I Clement consists of 59 chapters, although each chapter is more like a paragraph. The rest of this article consists of two of these chapters. (If you are interested in reading all of

I Clement, go to www.ccel.org/ccel/ schaff/anf01.ii.ii.i.html.) Chapter XIII: Let us therefore, brethren, be of humble mind, laying aside all haughtiness, and pride, and foolishness, and angry feelings; and let us act according to that which is written (for the Holy Spirit says, “Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, neither let the mighty man glory in his might, neither let the rich man glory in his riches; but let him that glories glory in the Lord, in diligently seeking Him, and doing judgment and righteousness”) being especially mindful of the words of the Lord Jesus which He spoke, teaching us meekness and long-suffering. For thus He spoke: “Be you merciful, that you may obtain mercy; forgive, that it may be forgiven to you; as you do, so shall it be done unto you; as you judge, so shall you be judged; as you are kind, so shall kindness be shown to you; with what measure you measure, with the same it shall be measured to you.” By

this precept and by these rules let us establish ourselves, that we walk with all humility in obedience to His holy words. For the holy word says, “On whom shall I look, but on him that is meek and peaceable, and that trembles at My words?” Chapter LVIII: May God, who sees all things, and who is the Ruler of all spirits and the Lord of all flesh – who chose our Lord Jesus Christ and us through Him to be a peculiar people – grant to every soul that calls upon His glorious and holy Name, faith, fear, peace, patience, long-suffering, self-control, purity, and sobriety, to the well-pleasing of His Name, through our High Priest and Protector, Jesus Christ, by whom be to Him glory, and majesty, and power, and honor, both now and for evermore. Amen. QUESTIONS/COMMENTS: Contact Mark Nickens at www.drnickens.com; other summaries available there.

Shattered confidence can be devastating C

onfidence, once shattered, may never be fully restored. Self-confidence and confidence in others, two essentials for successful and productive living, can never be over estimated in terms of importance and basic value. The very idea of confidence conjures up thoughts of belief, self-assurance, reliance, sureness, faith, trust and mental toughness. The person who has lost faith and confidence in himself may be tempted to give up. Never sell yourself short. Remember what many public speakers and writers have said and what many of us have experienced: “What the mind can conceive and the heart believe the hands can achieve.” Confidence is an assuring gift whether it be in ourselves or in others. Confidence enables us to do the unexpected and even the impossible. To believe in and trust others is to give them

opportunities to serve and work at our expense. Robert South a highly regarded leader and poet of England, 1634-1716, wrote: SHARING “Society is built upon trust, THE SPIRIT and trust upon confidence in one Bill another’s integEllis rity.” ■■■ As long as confidence remains, there is hope. Once there was a television show called, “Who Do You Trust?” That is a perennial question, and the older we become it looms even larger. That question is on the front of our minds now, perhaps more so than at any time in recent memory. To lose confidence is a haunting and hurting negative that robs life of its blessings and

happiness. It brings fear and distrust. John Casper, a Swiss theologian of nearly two centuries ago, said, “Trust him little who praises all; him less who censures all; and him least who is indifferent to all.” Was he describing our current political leaders? William Shakespeare, perhaps the most quoted poet and dramatist ever, warned: “Trust not him that hath once broken faith.” When confidence is lost in politicians, clergymen, counselors, friends, doctors and others, it may never be restored. To lose confidence in one’s self can be even more devastating. It leaves a dark and empty place in our hearts and minds when it happens. At present, the United States Congress may have the lowest rating for confidence and trust in its long history. It is not much higher in other

branches and departments of government. We often hear statements and questions like these: “We elect them to office, and they seem to forget us until their term is nearing an end and they come back with a new set of promises which they have no intention of keeping.” “Why does the Congress forget those who placed them in office and pay their salaries?” When our government, religious and business leaders do stupid and ridiculous things, they would do well to remember that there will be another election day. A day of reckoning and accountability. In another year, hundreds now in office will be voted on by millions of Americans who will not forget how they have conducted themselves. No wonder our sixteenth president, Abraham Lincoln, is revered in the United States and around the world. He was

a man of integrity and common sense, virtues not found in all political leaders of our day. This great man of godly wisdom and trust asked, “Why should there not be a patient confidence in the ultimate justice of the people? Is there any better or equal hope in the world?” John, follower of Jesus, once encouraged believers to “ ... have confidence and not be ashamed before Him at His coming (1 John 2:28).” It is a solid confidence in ourselves, others and God that keeps us steady in the most difficult times. Job, of ancient days, could endure the worst that could happen because of his confidence and trust in God. Cling to your confidence in things eternal. BILL ELLIS, P. O. Box 345, Scott Depot, WV 25560

Write a Letter to God The fourth spiritual work of mercy is to comfort the sorrowful. Unfortunately, the world is full of pain and suffering, and we need not look far to find someone in need of comforting. Philosophers have often referred to this realm as a “veil of tears,” suggesting that sorrow is the essence of our earthly existence. But surely, that goes too far. There is joy amongst the sadness, and great evils These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have often give rise to incredible acts of peace. In the world ye shall have mercy and forgiveness. Life is a mixed bag, some good and some bad, tribulation: but be of good cheer; and what gives our lives meaning is the ability to improve the balance I have overcome the world. John 16:33 of good over bad. Sometimes, this involves increasing the happiness of others and at other times it means decreasing their pain. Comforting the sorrowful may be as simple as sending a sympathy card to someone who has lost a loved one or it may be as complicated as rescuing someone who is suicidal. Often, the other person just needs someone to be with and listen to them. We should not feel compelled to give them advice nor should we presume that we understand what they are going through. More appropriately, we should just let them know that we truly care about them and are there to listen and help. We may wish to consider suggesting or even arranging professional help for the person suffering. Most people who are deeply suffering would benefit from professional counseling of some kind, whether it is with their pastor, their doctor, or a psychotherapist. Finally, although we should not assume that we can do the work of a trained professional, we should try to be there for them in their hour of need.

North State expands free calling area ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

HIGH POINT – North State Communications announced Thursday that the company will expand its free, unlimited calling area for residential and business customers beginning Nov. 1. The change will eliminate the usage-based fees previously charged for the calls. The new local calling area for free, unlimited calling will include a large portion of north-cen-

tral North Carolina, North State reports. As part of the changes, North State is shifting from three separate rate structures to one unified rate structure. Previously, monthly rates varied depending on whether a line was served from the High Point, Thomasville or Randleman exchange areas. Customers will note an increase or decrease in their spending on local phone services depending on their previous rates and

the amount of usage-based calling they incurred into the new free calling area. Notices of the rate changes will be sent with customers’ regular monthly invoice, North State says. Businesses and residential customers who have phone services in one of North State’s bundled packages of phone, Internet, TV or wireless services that include unlimited calling won’t incur any change in rates, the company reports. The new structure uni-

fies the calling scope and local phone services into a single rate regardless of where the service is located. A residential local phone line will now be priced at $11.75 per month; a simple business line will be priced at $20 per month, North State reports. North State says its rates will be lower than the state utility industry average. North Carolina’s statewide average price of the five largest phone providers for a residential phone

line today is $17.37 per month. The average price for a simple business line is $38.22 per month, North State reports. “We have a number of unlimited calling products, and customers are using wireless phones to make more and more calls,” said Royster Tucker, North State’s president and chief operating officer. “These changes make standard local phone services a more attractive option for customers.”

SANFORD (AP) – Police say a North Carolina couple failed to make sure a gun in their home stayed out of the hands of their children after the woman’s 2-year-old son was shot to death, Sanford Police spokesman Capt. David Smith said Friday that 21-yearold Melanie Tyson and 22year-old Joey Tyson are

Middle school teacher faces rape charges HUNTERSVILLE – A Charlotte-Mecklenburg middle school teacher has been arrested and charged with raping a 15year-old girl. Ernest Nichols, 44, of Huntersville, made his first appearance in court Friday. He faces 27 charges -- including multiple offenses of rape, seconddegree sex offense, crime against nature, indecent liberties with children, and kidnapping. He’s being held in the Mecklenburg County jail on $810,000 bond. During Friday’s brief court appearance, a bond hearing for Nichols was set for Oct. 14. Police say the charges against Nichols stem from a series of incidents over a six-month period from late 2008 until April or May. Nichols has been a physical education teacher at Ranson Middle School since 2004, but Huntersville police say the victim was not a student at the school and the attacks happened at Nichols’ home on Willow Grove Way. “It actually had nothing to do with his job at the school,” said Lit. Ken Richardson of the Huntersville police. It is the third time in six months that a CMS teacher has been charged with sex crimes involving a teen. Richardson said the Nichols’ alleged victim was a friend of the family. Nichols has not commented on the charges. A note posted on the front door of the family’s house in Huntersville advised people not to knock on the door, warning that police would be called if the residents were bothered. Phone calls to the house went unanswered. Richardson said the alleged attacks took place over a period of about six months, from last November until this spring. He said the girl, who was 15 when the alleged assaults took place but is now 16, did not come to police until Wednesday. “She spoke to someone who advised her to come to police,” Richardson said. “In this type of case, that’s not unusual. The victim often thinks it was her fault, or that what happened was not wrong.” Huntersville police got a search warrant, and detectives went through Nichols’ house Thursday. Richardson said Nichols was contacted and told to come to the house, where he was taken into custody.

charged with improper storage of a firearm to protect minors. Investigators say the gun was left on a bed Wednesday. Police say Melanie Tyson and her two other children, a 4-year-old and another toddler, were home at the time, but they have not figured out if the 2-year-old boy shot himself or another child fired the gun.

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Tropicalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; bromeliads can survive here gular leaves. Flowers are white and clustered in center with leaves that come in a rainbow of colors from red to mottled, black to striped to multi-hued. Guzmania is the very ECOLOGY best of all bromeliads for interiors or deep shade. Gwyn These natives of Florida, Riddick Central and South Amerâ&#x2013; â&#x2013; â&#x2013; ica have been widely cultivated and hybridized for more than 200 years. Leaves are usually green or variegated. Stunning, long-lasting blooms range from star-shaped to cylindrical or branched and are all vividly colored red, yellow, orange or even white. An easy to grow plant that you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t go wrong with. Neoregelia is the â&#x20AC;&#x153;king of color.â&#x20AC;? This South American plant has perhaps the most colorful leaves in the plant kingdom. Its leaves are vividly patterned with stripes, spots, banding or mottling over background colors of green to red. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Neosâ&#x20AC;? have flowers that are nested in the cup in the center of the leafy rosette. And for additional pizzazz many varieties produce a showy blush of color in the center when in bloom ranging from pink to red to purple. Most varieties do well in strong light, but out of all direct sun. Vriesea is a genus of shade loving plants that naturally range from Mexico to South America and come in sizes from 4 inches to 4 feet. Most are green leaved but some have variegation or patterns or colors and they

are great houseplants that require minimal care. Blooms are spectacular and varied from simple sword-shaped spikes of deep red while others produce branched panicles of bright colors. And some even have hanging blooms to 24 inches long in bright colors of yellow, red and orange. I have grown all of these except Aechmea and had great results growing them year-round as a houseplant. During the year, you can find almost all of these species for sale in garden centers. Probably the most fun is growing an edible bromeliad â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the pineapple. Originally from Brazil and Paraguay, pineapple was spread by European explorers through Central America and the Caribbean. Christopher Columbus is said to have been the first European to discover the pineapple in 1493. Upon taking it back to Europe, it became the â&#x20AC;&#x153;treat of kings.â&#x20AC;? It was a symbol of affluence and it was reported that shipping owners and merchants rented the fruits out to affluent householders and then sold the same fruit to more affluent clients to eat. According to botanical history, Florida was among the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most prolific producers of pineapples in the 19th century. By the 1930s, pineapple production in Florida declined, and Central America and Hawaii became the leading producers. At one time, Hawaii was the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s leading producer, but production has now shifted to Central America and Asia where costs are cheaper. I remember seeing huge pineapple plantations owned by Dole Foods when

ADVICE Dear Abby â&#x2013; â&#x2013; â&#x2013;

Dear Abby: My fiance and I are being married in about a month. Some friends in another country (who donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t speak English) offered to design and give us our rings as a wedding gift. They asked whether we wanted white or yellow gold, and we specified white or a combination of both â&#x20AC;&#x201C; but not yellow by itself. Yellow gold is what my parents used to wear â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and they had a terrible relationship and an even worse divorce. The rings arrived and they are beautiful, but

they are yellow gold! Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m assuming something was lost in translation. I know a marriage isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t about the rings, but I had my heart set on wearing ones unlike my parentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think anything can be done at this point, and I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to raise an objection about such a generous gift. Have you any words of wisdom to help me overcome my hang-ups and this silly feeling of disappointment? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Feeling Shallow in Sunny California Dear Feeling Shallow: Your parents had a rotten marriage, but their rings had nothing to do with it. We create our own symbols and attach meaning to them. Instead of allowing the gold rings to remind you of your parentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; unhappiness, why not let them serve as a reminder of whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important in a marriage so you wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make the

same mistakes they did? And if that doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t work, consult a jeweler about having them plated. Dear Abby: Is it rude to put salt on your food before you have even tried it? My husband was terribly offended when I blurted out, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Try it before you season it!â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Nadine in Ontario, Canada Dear Nadine: Yes, it is rude. And itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s interesting that your husband became so defensive, because usually itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the person who cooked the dish who is offended. The polite thing to do is to first taste the item before deciding to correct the seasoning.

PET OF THE WEEK

Insomnia is putting a strain on sleep-deprived couple ear Abby: I have been with my boyfriend, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Simon,â&#x20AC;? for a year and a half. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a good person, but my problem is I suffer from insomnia and have a hard time staying asleep. It is extremely frustrating â&#x20AC;&#x201C; not to mention lonely â&#x20AC;&#x201C; lying in the dark. I start to think about crazy things and it scares me. If it gets really bad I wake Simon up, but he doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t understand. He starts going off on me for waking him, to the point that Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m reduced to tears. Then he goes back to sleep. What should I do? This is a disorder that is going to be with me for some time. Simon doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem to care despite my numerous attempts to explain it to him. I know people hate being awakened from a sleep, but heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s my significant other. Isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t he supposed to help me out? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Anxious in Anchorage

I was in Hawaii. While there I learned that pineapples thrive in both partial shade and in full sunlight. Optimum temperatures for growth are between 70 and 90 degrees. Growth slows as temperatures fall below 65 degrees, and damage or death can occur with temperatures below 32 or more than 95. Here in the Piedmont during cooler months, the plant will do well indoors free of the risk of frost. Once the risk of frost has passed, the plant will be happy on the patio or in the yard. Each plant will produce one fruit during its lifetime. Once the fruit has matured, the crown and small side shoots, called suckers, can be removed and transplanted to produce new plants. To grow the fruit to maturity, relative humidity should ideally be 50 to 75 percent. Rainwater or de-ionized water is best for bromeliads, ideally acidic water with a pH of 5.5. Any potting mix is acceptable as long as it is acidic and holds moisture, yet drains quickly. A tropical foliage fertilizer close to an N-P-K formula of 9-3-6 is great. If you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t grow a pineapple, at least try your hand at growing one of the tough bromeliads for beginners.

n the last 15 years many plant fanciers have become familiar with bromeliad houseplants which are a large family of tropical plants coming mainly from North and South American climates. They are easy to grow, love neglect, have attractive foliage all the time and even have long-lasting blooms. The word â&#x20AC;&#x153;tropicalâ&#x20AC;? often scares away some plant lovers because we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t live in a tropical area, so it evokes images of a finicky plant; but bromeliads are tough. In fact, different varieties in this family come from climates as varied as from the jungle to the desert. Beginners can start with any of the six really different genera as follows and have great results with survival and blooming of the plant: Aechmea species have sturdy strapshaped leaves, ranging in color from green to wine color, banded or even discolored. Actual blooms are showy and long lasting with wonderfully colored bracts and berrylike fruits. This plant can be grown potted or mounted on wood. Canistropsis is a Brazilian native that is easy to grow with very showy flowers and is great for shade and interiors. Leaves are narrow and grow in an upright rosette which is green to reddish. Its flower is star shaped with brilliantly colored bracts of pink, red or orange with white or blue flowers.. Earth Star is the common name for a showy and popular genus called Cryptanthus. Native to Brazil, they are rather flat growing in soil with a rosette of straplike, succulent, trian-

Today’s deal arose in a team match, with both Souths at four hearts. They finished like the two silkworms that got into a race – and ended up in a tie. One South ruffed the third spade, led a trump to dummy and let the queen of diamonds ride. West took the king and returned a diamond, and though South could draw trumps and pitch one club on the jack of diamonds, he still had a club loser. Down one. The second South placed West with the king of diamonds for his double: South ruffed the third spade and led the ace and a low diamond. If West won, South could count 10 tricks. If West played low, South would win, take the top clubs, lose a club and ruff his last club in dummy.

WINNER Alas, West took the king and led a third diamond, and East ruffed one of dummy’s winners. South was a trick short: down one again. To make four hearts, South ruffs the third spade and leads a low diamond without taking the ace. No matter how West defends, he can’t beat the contract.

HOROSCOPE

CROSSWORD

Saturday, October 3, 2009 CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Ashlee Simpson, 25; Erik von Detten, 27; India.Arie, 34; Neve Campbell, 36 HAPPY BIRTHDAY: You’ll be pulled in several directions this year. Don’t give up something you want or you may not be given a second chance. There is no time to waste getting upset over something or someone you cannot change. Have confidence in who you are and what you can do and people will recognize what you have to offer. Your numbers are 10, 19, 22, 27, 33, 36, 48 ARIES (March 21-April 19): Don’t get into hot water by speaking your mind and giving ultimatums. You may need to make changes but be considerate of the people your decisions affect. Consider an open discussion to appease everyone. ★★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Possessions and cash will go missing quickly. A deal of a lifetime may be tempting but, instead, put your cash into your home and family. A job you want is likely to become available. ★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You’ll be drawn to frivolous acts and impulsive purchases. Being too generous to win acceptance will work initially but will leave you short of cash and hurting emotionally. Don’t settle for less or give away too much. ★★★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): Don’t be too hard on the ones you love. Listening is an art that may not be easy to master when you see the ones you care for making mistakes. You can invest time in your surroundings, education or a small business you’ve wanted to start. ★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Spending money you don’t have will take its toll. Trying to appease everyone by being the hero will not cut it when you are left alone to deal with matters responsibly. Don’t be afraid to ask for help. ★★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Keep your emotions under control and everything will run smoothly. It’s playing the game honestly but well that will lead to your success. Make time for friends who have the same interests. ★★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Secrets may be kept from you right now. Don’t pry; someone is likely trying to surprise you. An emotional twist in your day will start you thinking about long-term prospects. ★★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Take a break, have some fun and remember what it’s like to be stressfree. You can sort through some of the confusion at home by setting guidelines and a budget. Someone will offer you a deal or insight into how you can make one of your dreams come true. ★★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): A poor choice will influence relationships and cause unrest at home. On the bright side, you do need to revamp your space and lay out a plan for the future. Keep your thoughts to yourself until you have something tangible in place for all to see. ★★★★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You’ll face some emotional turmoil if you deny someone who is used to getting everything. Don’t back down, even if it means you will spend the day alone. You have other things to occupy your time and opportunities to consider that will help you financially, legally or physically. ★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You have to put a price on what you have to offer or you will devalue your services. Don’t let someone from your past bully you. Fight for equality, justice and peace of mind. ★★★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): You’ve got what it takes to mesmerize onlookers with your stamina and courage. Challenge yourself physically and you will be impressed by the results you get. Pursue someone whose attention you’ve been trying to get and you will be successful. ★★★

DAILY QUESTION You hold: S A K Q 8 H 6 2 D K 10 9 6 3 C Q 5. Dealer, at your right, opens one heart. You double, and your partner bids two clubs. The opponents pass. What do you say? ANSWER: Your club support isn’t what it should be, but that is the risk you took when you doubled. (Some players would have tried one spade.) Pass. A bid of two diamonds wouldn’t increase the level of the contract, but most players would think it promised extra strength. 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.

Man wins lottery prize during embezzlement case GIRARD, Kan. (AP) – A former Kansas radio executive who admitted that he embezzled to support an addiction to scratch-off lottery tickets won a $96,000 lottery prize. Prosecutors say the prize money will go toward paying restitu-tion to Paul W. Lyle’s former

employer, American Media Investments. Lyle pleaded guilty Thursday to felony theft for embezzling an estimated $88,000 from American Media. It was during his preliminary hearing Sept. 21 that Lyle was notified he had won a prize in a second-chance lottery draw-

ing. The prize includes a boat, cash and tickets to a NASCAR race at the Kansas Speedway. Lyle will be sentenced Nov. 30. His conviction carries a sentencing range of five to 17 months in jail or prison. But prosecutors say Lyle likely will get probation because he has no previous felony convictions.

Rotator-cuff tear is a common shoulder injury

ear Dr. Donohue: Twice a week I play doubles tennis, year-round. Last week, when serving, I got a terrific pain in my right shoulder and had to stop playing. My tennis partner thinks I tore my rotator cuff. I’ve heard of the rotator cuff, but don’t know what it is or what it does. If it is torn, how long will it keep me from playing? – T.R.

BLONDIE

I have confidence in your partner’s diagnostic abilities, but you really need a doctor’s input on your shoulder problem. Rotator-cuff tears are only one cause of shoulder pain. Tendonitis, fractures, dislocations, arthritis and conditions called impingement syndromes give rise to shoulder pain and have nothing to do with the rotator cuff. The rotator cuff is the merging of the tendons of four muscles that arise on the back of the shoulder blade. They wrap around the top of the upper arm bone, the humerus, which is a ball that fits snugly in the shoulder socket. The cuff keeps the shoulder stable through the enormous range of motion that joint has, greater than any other body joint. A doctor can be reasonably certain of the diagnosis from the information patients relate and from examination of the shoulder. Sometimes an MRI scan or ultrasound of the shoulder is needed. Tears show well on the images generated by those procedures. Small tears become

painless without interference in a matter of weeks. Larger tears have to be HEALTH repaired. Often the Dr. Paul repair Donohue takes place ■■■ through a small incision through which a scope can be inserted into the joint. Downtime from this surgery is a couple of months. Dear Dr. Donohue: I am a 69-year-old male who exercises every day. I do weight training, stretching and calisthenics. I can do 120 pushups in 60 seconds. I do 15 to 20 repetitions of leg presses with 450 pounds. I have started early-morning speed walks to become more aerobically fit. For the third day in a row, after a mile walk, I developed heartburn and need to drink water. After drinking the water, I feel fine. If I wait until after breakfast, I don’t have this problem. Will you please comment? – V.I. Yours is an extremely rigorous program. The “heartburn” pain worries me. When someone your age talks about chest pain that comes with exertion, the first thought should be to consider it heart pain and not heartburn pain. I’m not convinced water can soothe heartburn pain. Perhaps it’s the rest you take while drinking the water that

stops it. At any rate, speak to your doctor. I also can’t explain why you don’t get it after eating breakfast. If your doctor says your heart is fine, then eat before exercise, advice that is contrary to the usual advice. Dear Dr. Donohue: I am 60. I go to the gym three times a week, and I golf twice a week. My problem is finger arthritis, mainly my thumb. Can cortisone shots help? Are they dangerous? I take two Aleve on the days I golf, but they help very little. I would appreciate any information you can provide. – B.N. Hand arthritis incapacitates lots of people. You need a regular program of supervised exercise and medicine. It might help your golf to take Aleve the day before and the day of your golf game. And before playing, soak your hands in warm water or with a towel that’s been soaked in warm water. If you can do this with little delay between the treatment and your time of play, it will be effective. A cortisone shot might help. Three shots, spaced out over a year’s time, won’t harm you or your joints.

DR. DONOHUE regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but he will incorporate them in his column whenever possible. Readers may write him or request an order form of available health newsletters at P.O. Box 536475, Orlando, FL 32853-6475

LEXINGTON – For Lexington, the evening could not have started more ominously. As it turns out, the opening sequence was a foreshadowing of things to come as T. Wingate Andrews netted a 28-21 win in overtime Friday night in the first meeting between the two schools in 25 years. Regulation came to a frenetic conclusion with Lexington failing to get into the end zone despite having the ball 1st-and-goal from the 10 with less than a minute to play. Unfortunately for the Yellow Jackets, the team lost track of the downs and spiked the football on fourth down with 3 seconds remaining. In overtime, Andrews scored on its second play when Marquez Swinton connected with Mark Johnson for a 10-yard strike to make it 28-21 after Quan Stevenson’s PAT. Lexington failed to answer the Raider touchdown, as Al Challenger misfired on three straight pass attempts and fumbled the ball on the final play. Antonio Jackson recovered to end the game. The Red Raiders took full advantage of a penalty-plagued first quarter to take a 7-0 lead

on their first possession. The Raiders then returned the favor with a key pass interference penalty to extend the Yellow Jackets’ opening drive of the second quarter. Lexington capped the drive with a 5-yard TD run from Quandarius Crump to tie the game 7-7 at halftime. Three significant Lexington drives in the third quarter were aided by personal foul penalties by the Red Raiders. The first offense occurred on a seven-play, 80-yard drive culminating in an 8-yard TD run by Challenger. Andrews was victimized again on a 15-yard penalty for roughing the passer, giving the Jackets a second wind on what would have been a 3rd-and-10. Six plays later, Lexington scored on a 15-yard completion from Challenger to Codie Bogar to make it 21-14. The Raiders answered the bell with a quick score with 7:45 remaining in the fourth quarter. Swinton began action in the second half by throwing a 76-yard touchdown to Johnson to give the Raiders a 14-7 advantage. Andrews 7 0 7 7 7 — 28 Lexington 0 7 7 7 0 — 21 TWA – Stevenson 4 run (Stevenson kick), 9:05, 1st L – Crump 5 run (Jackson kick), 9:06, 2nd TWA – Johnson 76 pass from Swinton (Stevenson kick), 9:06, 3rd L – Challenger 8 run (Jackson kick), 4:20, 3rd L – Boger 15 pass from Challenger (Jackson kick), 9:59, 4th TWA – Swinton 3 run (Stevenson kick), 7:45, 4th TWA – Johnson 10 pass from Swinton (Stevenson kick), OT

Flyers ground Canes RALEIGH (AP) – Ray Emery made 28 saves in his Philadelphia debut, leading the Flyers to a 2-0 victory over the Carolina Hurricanes on Friday night in their opener. Jeff Carter and Mike Richards scored powerplay goals 22 seconds apart for Philadelphia. The Flyers put their first two shots of the second period past Cam Ward and held on for their eighth win in 10 meetings with Carolina. Playing two days after signing a six-year, $37.8 million contract, Ward stopped 25 shots for Carolina. The Hurricanes came up empty on all eight of their power-play chances and were shut out in their opener for the first time in franchise history. Emery finished with his ninth career shutout. With Sergei Samsonov serving a doubleminor for high-sticking, Carter gave Philadelphia the lead 25 seconds into the period when he backhanded a rebound past Ward. Moments later, Richards made it a two-goal game on a deflection through traffic. That wound up being plenty of offense for Emery, who spent last season in Russia but returned to the NHL hoping for more performances like this. He picked up where he left off in the preseason, when he had a 1.78 goals-against average.

Pushed aside Ragsdale’s D-onovan Smith (12) proves too much of a handful for East Forsyth’s Dominique Harris during Friday night’s game in Jamestown. See story on 5C.

HIT AND RUN

---

love October. For personal reasons that would be of no interest to anyone who’s not, well, me, it’s probably my favorite month of the year. But it also captures my professional fancy. October means playoff baseball and, for our cold-climate friends, the start of the NHL season. NASCAR’s Chase for the Championship hits high gear, and high school and pro football sizzles. But perhaps my favorite thing about sports in the 10th month of the year is the fact that college football conference matchups dot

every Saturday. Sure, you get the occasional marquee conference clash in September, but now, every week is loaded with league battles. Take today’s ACC docket. We find Virginia at North Carolina, Virginia Tech at Duke, Clemson at Maryland, Florida State at Boston College and N.C. State at Wake Forest. That’s five conference clashes. I’ll grant you the Hokies will be big favorites in Durham and the Tigers-Terrapins confrontation pits a pair of struggling foes.

But the other three games carry plenty of intrigue. The Wolfpack and Demon Deacons almost always stage an entertaining battle, while the winless Cavaliers usually play well in Chapel Hill and the Seminoles-Eagles showdown may go a long way toward determining the Atlantic Division pecking order. And that’s just the first Saturday of the month! So settle in for another fantastic October sports fest.

YOUR COMMUNITY. YOUR NEWSPAPER.

State-Wake showdown pits similar foes O

n several levels, Wake Forest and N.C. State offer a study in similarities entering their 103rd meeting this afternoon in Winston-Salem. Both teams have put up impressive numbers on offense, with the host Deacons ranking first in the Atlantic Coast Conference (412.2 yards per game) and the Wolfpack second (406.0) heading into the 3:30 kickoff at BB&T Field second. Both have established SPORTS quarterbacks. Each has one victory over a Bowl Greer Championship SubdiviSmith sion team in four games, â&#x2013; â&#x2013; â&#x2013; and both had to rally to do that. Both are coming off games in which they left their coaches complaining about poor play. That was understandable in the Deaconsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; case after they committed 10 penalties for 84 yards and were sloppy at times in a 27-24 leagueopening loss to Boston College. But, the Wolfpack even in victory had enough issues, including 12 yellow flags for 81 yards and at least 20 missed tackles, that coach Tom Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brien said they werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a good team despite putting up 530 yards of offense and rallying to beat Pittsburgh. That is the lone victory State can claim against a BCS school while building a 3-1 record. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t real crisp as an organization,â&#x20AC;?

Grobe is concerned about Wilsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ability to run. He gained a career-high 91 rushing yards against Pitt, boosting his total for the season to 115. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you are going to slow him down, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to have to mix it up,â&#x20AC;? Grobe said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are times you have to blitz and bring pressure, some time youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have man coverage and sometime zone and keep everybody in front of you. But, Russell Wilson is such a smart quarterback. So even with all that said, even with mixing it up, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no guarantee to stop him.

Wolfpack targets win in ACC opener

Pirates, Herd meet in C-USA confrontation

N.C. STATE AT WAKE FOREST

HUNTINGTON, W.Va. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; East Carolina and Marshall are getting an early shot at a key win in Conference USAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s East Division. The defending league champion Pirates travel to face the Thundering Herd today, with both teams hoping to add another confidence-building win that keeps them atop the division. Marshall coach Mark Snyder said itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s too early to say the winner would have control of that race. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If this was a little further into the conference schedule, you might be able to say that,â&#x20AC;? Snyder said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But (conference games) are all big and important. This is a big game coming out of the East and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s with the defending champs.â&#x20AC;? Marshall (3-1, 1-0) is coming off a 27-16 win at Memphis after yet another big game from running back Darius Marshall, who is averaging 166 yards rushing per game. The Thundering Herdâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only loss came at nationally ranked Virginia Tech in the second game. Last week, Marshall ran for 203 yards and three touchdowns. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll face a defense that ranks fifth against the run (124 yards) in the league. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He has great balance and is very difficult to tackle,â&#x20AC;? East Carolina coach Skip Holtz said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He can start and stop on a dime.â&#x20AC;? The Pirates (2-2, 1-0) ended a two-game skid with a win against Central Florida last week. In that game, East Carolina scored a secondhalf touchdown for the first time all season. The Pirates have won three of four meetings, including last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s overtime win in Greenville.

Who: N.C. State (3-1) vs. Wake Forest (2-2) When: 3:30 p.m. (ESPNU) Line: Wake Forest by 1. Series record: N.C. State leads 61-35-6. Last meeting: 2008, N.C. State 21-17. Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s at stake: The Wolfpack opens ACC play after a comeback win against Pittsburgh that further showed it seems to have figured out its early offensive struggles. The Demon Deacons are trying to avoid an 0-2 ACC start and have their offense clicking. Key matchup: Wake Forest QB Riley Skinner vs. N.C. Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s defense. Skinner has had career-best passing days in consecutive games and has found a downfield target in Marshall Williams. The Wolfpack has the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top total defense (201.2 yards), but a young secondary. Players to watch: N.C. State: HB Toney Baker. Baker had 152 total yards and two touchdowns in the win against Pittsburgh and has a firm hold on the starting job. Wake Forest: WR Marshall Williams. Williams had 12 catches for 180 yards and a score in the overtime loss at Boston College last week.

VIRGINIA TECH AT DUKE

---

Who: No. 6 Virginia Tech (3-1) at Duke (2-2) When: noon Line: Virginia Tech by 161â &#x201E;2 Series record: Virginia Tech leads 9-7. Last meeting: 2008, Virginia Tech 14-3. Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s at stake: Virginia Techâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s return to the top 10. The Hokies thrived in the role of unappreciated underdogs last week and outplayed Miami to vault back up the rankings. Now they face a classic trap game against a Duke team still looking for its first big victory under coach David Cutcliffe. After a close loss last year at Tech, the Blue Devils want to show theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re ready to take the next step. Key matchup: Dukeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s running game vs. Virginia Techâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s run defense. The Hokies have been tough to throw against so far, allowing only one passing touchdown. For the Blue Devils to have any chance at the upset, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have to get something going from a ground game that is barely averaging 100 yards. Dukeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s reason for hope: Freshman Desmond Scott became the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first 100-yard rusher of the season in his debut last week against N.C. Central. Players to watch: Virginia Tech: RB Ryan Williams thrived last week when QB Tyrod Taylor began to use his feet â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and his arm â&#x20AC;&#x201C; to open up the offense. Williams ran for 150 yards and two touchdowns vs. Miami. Duke: QB Thaddeus Lewis missed last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s near-miss in Blacksburg with an ankle injury, leaving teammates and coaches to spend the past year wondering what-if? Facts & figures: Duke hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t beaten Virginia Tech since 1981. ... Before last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s game, the

Blue Devils hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t come within 24 points of the Hokies since they joined the ACC in 2004. ... Virginia Tech is 18-0 in conference road openers â&#x20AC;&#x201C; in both the Big East and ACC â&#x20AC;&#x201C; under coach Frank Beamer. ... Tech has lost its last three ACC road games, yet is 16-4 away from Lane Stadium in league play.

VIRGINIA AT NORTH CAROLINA

---

Who: Virginia (0-3) vs. North Carolina (3-1) When: noon (Raycom, WXLV, Ch. 45 locally) Line: North Carolina by 13. Series record: North Carolina leads 57-52-4. Last meeting: 2008, Virginia 16-13 (OT). Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s at stake: The Tar Heels are starting favorable stretch of the schedule that could determine how far it can rise in the Atlantic Coast Conferenceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Coastal Division. The Cavaliers are just desperate for a win after a disastrous start that has made Al Grohâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s coaching future a question. Key matchup: North Carolina TB Shaun Draughn vs. Virginiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s run defense. Draughn was part of a rushing attack that managed just 17 yards against Georgia Tech, but the Cavaliersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; run defense is giving up 181 yards per game to rank near the bottom of the ACC. Players to watch: Virginia: QB Jameel Sewell. The mobile quarterback is averaging 203 total yards per game to rank among the league leaders. North Carolina: WR Erik Highsmith. The freshman receiver has consecutive 100yard games and is looking like T.J. Yatesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; go-to receiver. Facts & figures: Virginia has been outscored 93-62 this year. ... The Cavaliers are 2-0 against Butch Davis since he took over at North Carolina and have nine of 11 meetings. ... North Carolinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s defense is still among the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best units by allowing 251 yards per game even after last weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s loss to Georgia Tech. ... The Cavaliers rank as one of the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s worst offenses since trying to install a spread attack before reverting to some old playcalling in a loss at Southern Mississippi. ... The Tar Heels play five of the next six at home.

OKLAHOMA AT MIAMI

Who: No. 8 Oklahoma (2-1) at No. 17 Miami (2-1) When: 8 p.m. (ABC, WXLV, Ch. 45) Line: Oklahoma by 7. Series record: Tied, 3-3. Last meeting: 2007, Oklahoma 51-13. Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s at stake: Oklahoma returns to the scene of last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s BCS championship game loss to Florida, looking for a third consecutive shutout following a Week 1, 14-13 loss to BYU. For Miami, coming off a loss at Virginia Tech this game is all about seeing how the program is progressing. Two years ago, the Hurricanes went to Oklahoma and got whipped, losing by 38 points.

Back to Div. II: Winston-Salem State rejoins CIAA CARY (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; With financial woes ending its bid to join Division I, WinstonSalem State is headed back to its old conference. The Central Intercollegiate Athletic Associationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s board of directors voted Friday to let the school back into the Division II league of his-

torically black colleges and universities in time for the 2010-11 academic year. WSSU left in 2004 with plans to move to the NCAAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top tier with an invitation to join the MidEastern Athletic Conference. But the school faced financial difficulties and had to change plans.

Key matchup: Oklahoma DE Jeremy Beal vs. Miami LT Jason Fox. Beal had a career-best three sacks against Tulsa. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be stepping up in class this week. Fox is a Texas native who took the loss at Oklahoma two years ago especially personally, and Miamiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most experienced player knows the Hurricanes must be able to run against the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s No. 1 rush defense to have a legitimate shot. Players to watch: Oklahoma: LB Ryan Reynolds. Not Oklahomaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best defensive player, but the leader after coming back from three significant injuries in his career. He had 13 tackles against Tulsa, matching his total from the seasonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first two games, and if he gets rolling against Miamiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s run game, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an advantage for the Sooners. Miami: QB Jacory Harris. He still hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t lost a high school or college game that heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s started in his hometown, and knows heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s expected to bounce back after completing 9 of 25 passes in last weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s loss at Virginia Tech. Facts & Figures: Landry Jones will start again at QB for Sam Bradford, who hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t played since spraining the AC joint in his right shoulder the first week of the season. Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops did not rule out playing both.

Who: No. 25 Georgia Tech (3-1) vs. Mississippi State (2-2) When: 7:30 p.m. Line: Georgia Tech by 6. Series record: Georgia Tech leads 3-0. Last meeting: 2008, Georgia Tech 38-7. Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s at stake: Georgia Tech recovered its equilibrium with a dominant win over North Carolina and needs a victory to keep the momentum rolling. For Mississippi State, the gameâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about finishing. The Bulldogs needed 1 foot to beat LSU and couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get it last week. Failure to finish was also a theme in last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s loss to Tech. Key matchup: Mississippi State LB Jamar Chaney vs. Georgia Tech QB Josh Nesbitt. Techâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s quarterback ran the ball an astounding 32 times in last weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s win over North Carolina, scoring twice. Chaney was all over the field in the close loss to LSU, making plays at the line of scrimmage and in coverage. Chaney has to slow down the ACCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s No. 3 rusher for Mississippi State to have a chance. Players to watch: Georgia Tech: RB Jonathan Dwyer. There are other Yellow Jackets worth mentioning, but until someone stops Dwyer heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to hog the attention from defenses. He rushed for 158 yards last week â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 1 shy of his career high â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and slashed the Bulldogs last year with 141 yards, including a school-record 88-yard scoring run. Mississippi State: QB Tyson Lee. The senior threw three interceptions against LSU, including one returned for a touchdown, and must eliminate the mistakes for the Bulldogs offense to succeed.

Hamlin warns Keselowski to watch out

Ninth-grader shares lead THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

PRATTVILLE, Ala. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Ninth-grader Alexis Thompson shot a 3-under 69 on Friday for a share of the lead with top-ranked Lorena Ochoa and three others after the second round of the Navistar LPGA Classic. The 14-year-old Thompson, from Coral Springs, Fla., is trying to become the second-youngest winner in LPGA Tour history â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and the youngest in a full event. Thompson won the 2008 U.S. Girlsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Junior and tied for 34th in July in the U.S. Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Open. She shot a 65 on Thursday. Ochoa (68), Laura Davies (65), Yani Tseng (63) and Giulia Sergas (65) matched Thompson at 10-under 134.

WATSON LEADS BY TWO TIMONIUM, Md. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Tom Watson shot a bogey-free 68 in windy conditions to take a two-stroke lead at the halfway point of the Senior Players Championship. Watson completed 36 holes at 6-under 134 on Baltimore Country Club/Five Farmsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; East Course.

TAYLOR AHEAD BY ONE VERONA, N.Y. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Vaughn Taylor has shot his second straight 5-under 67 to take a one-stroke lead over three players at the Turning Stone Resort Championship. Matt Kuchar (68), rookie Leif Olson (69) and Nicholas Thompson (67) were tied for second.

THREE SET PACE AT DUNHILL ST. ANDREWS, Scotland â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Rory McIlroy birdied the last two holes on the Old Course at St. Andrews for a 7-under 65 and a share of the second-round lead in the Dunhill Links Championship.with countryman Michael Hoey and Scotlandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Richie Ramsay.

CHICAGO (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Eric Byrnes had his first multihomer game in more than two years and drove in five runs, leading the Arizona Diamondbacks over the Chicago Cubs 12-3 Friday in the opener of the final series of dis-

appointing seasons for both teams. Chris Young homered and had four hits, and Rusty Ryal drove in four runs for Arizona (69-91), which already is assured of finishing last in the NL West.

Late-model record could tumble at Martinsville ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

MARTINSVILLE, Va. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Perfect conditions in practice Friday afternoon gave indications that Martinsville Speedwayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s late model qualifying record could be in jeopardy today. At least a half-dozen cars were under the track record in practice on Friday as almost 100 cars prepped for this afternoonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time trials. The Baileyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 300 NASCAR Late Model Stock Car race is scheduled for Sunday afternoon. Wayne Ramsey, of Amherst, Va., was at the top of the speed charts at the end of the day with a fast lap of 20.207 seconds (93.710 mph) around the .526-mile oval. That time is well under the track record mark of 20.316 seconds (93.207 mph) set by Davin Scites last year. Ramseyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s position atop the practice session was no surprise considering heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s won the pole position for the Baileyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 300 in the past. There were surprises among the rest of top runners, though. Brennan Poole, of The Woodlands, Texas, had the second best time of the day, 20.219 seconds (93.654 mph) in his first visit to Martinsville Speedway. Another pair of young drivers, Nick Smith and Richard Boswell, checked in third and fourth fastest and were followed by veteran Brandon Butler. The final driver to unofficially run under the track record was 18-year-old Brandon McReynolds, also making his first start at Martinsville Speedway. Cars will be back on track at 9 a.m. today for two more hours of practice. Time trials are set to begin at 1 p.m. Only the fastest 22 cars will advance to the 200-lap feature on Sunday through time trials. The remaining 20 spots will be filled through four 25-lap heat races set to begin at 12:30 p.m. on Sunday

Portis again a game-time decision for Redskins ASHBURN, Va. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Banged-up running back Clinton Portis will be a game-time decision for the second straight week for the Washington Redskins. Portis is nursing a bruised calf after getting kicked in the second half of last weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s loss to Detroit. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also been hin-

dered by bone spurs in both ankles, but coach Jim Zorn said Friday the calf is the reason he feels Portis has a â&#x20AC;&#x153;50-50â&#x20AC;? chance of playing Sunday against Tampa Bay. Portis is off to one of the slowest starts of his career, with 183 yards on 47 carries through three games for the Redskins.

Martin speeds to seventh Cup pole of the season KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Mark Martin has another pole in his race to win the Chase. Martin turned a lap of 175.758 mph on a cool, windy Friday on the 1.5-mile oval at Kansas Speedway, earning his career-best seventh pole of the season.

The 50-year-old will start on the front row with Dale Earnhardt Jr. in Sundayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Price Chopper 400, the third of 10 races in the Chase for the championship. Martin has won five times this season and holds a 10-point lead over three-time defend-

ing Sprint Cup champion Jimmie Johnson, who qualified 11th. Earnhardt, who hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t won since Michigan last year, gets his best starting position this season. Brad Keselowski qualified third. Five of the top 10 qualifiers are in the Chase.

Mayfield set to hire high-profile attorney THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Suspended NASCAR driver Jeremy Mayfield is turning to high-profile attorney Mark Geragos to help fight his drug suspension. Geragos confirmed to The Associated Press on Friday night that heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s finalizing a deal to represent Mayfield himself out of his Washington, D.C.-based firm Luque Geragos and Marino. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s clear to me that there are real issues here, substantial issues, and I think heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s getting a raw deal,â&#x20AC;? Geragos said. Geragos declined to discuss specific issues until he could review the case, cit-

ing a protective order that U.S. District Judge Graham Mullen has in place. Mayfield has been suspended since failing a May 1 random drug test. NASCAR says he tested positive for methamphetamines, and the driver has denied using the illegal drug. Mayfield sued to have his suspension lifted, and NASCAR countersued. He won an injunction July 1 to lift his suspension, but did not attempt to make any of the three races before the U.S. Court of Appeals upheld the suspension on July 24. A hearing on the injunction appeal is tentatively scheduled for the first week of December.

Close call puts Hendrick teams on defense KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Mark Martin and Jimmie Johnson used a pair of wins to race their way to the top of the Sprint Cup standings. Fair and square. No cheating involved. Even so, tongues were wagging Friday at Kansas Speedway after NASCAR warned the two Hendrick Motorsports teams they came awfully close to failing post-race inspection at Dover. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There was no room to breathe,â&#x20AC;? Sprint Cup director John Darby said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Both cars passed inspection, or we would be having a whole different conversation with this.â&#x20AC;? Johnson led Martin to a 1-2 finish on Sunday, and their Chevrolets were taken back to NASCARâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s research and development center in North Carolina for further inspection. Johnsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s car was taken as the race winner, while Martinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s represented the random selection. During the inspection, NASCAR found that the body of the cars came very close

to exceeding allowed specifications. Hendrick officials were called in the next day to go over the measurements and NASCAR let the teams go with a warning: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t put it so close that your headâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in the guillotine and somebody is holding a lighter on the rope,â&#x20AC;? Darby said. It put Hendrick Motorsports on the defense at Kansas, where rival teams openly wondered if Martin and Johnson were given an unfair pass by NASCAR so their championship chances would not be disrupted. Martin, winner of the Chase opener at New Hampshire, holds a 10-point advantage in the standings over Johnson, the three-time defending champion. Martin won his career-best seventh pole of the season, while Johnson qualified 11th for Sundayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s race. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If we were cheating, I wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be standing here today, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be back in Charlotte,â&#x20AC;? said Johnson crew chief Chad Knaus. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The cars were legal.â&#x20AC;?

Logano says heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not scared after Dover accident KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Joey Logano did not hesitate as he climbed back into his car Friday and headed onto the track for the first time since his harrowing accident at Dover. Rolling his Toyota seven times left the rookie shaken, but not scared. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think the first time is going to shake you up more than anything else,â&#x20AC;? Logano said Friday at Kansas Speedway.

Patrick remains quiet about future plans INDIANAPOLIS (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Danica Patrick still isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t saying what she plans for next season. IndyCarsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; most marketable driver just glared Friday when asked about her reported signing of a threeyear deal to stay with Andretti Green Racing. Team spokesman Al Larsen also declined comment. Patrick was in Indy to drive winners of a contest around the historic 2.5-mile oval in the twoseat car. There has been speculation throughout the season Patrick was considering a move to NASCAR, though she has said no announcement would be made until after the season. The IndyCars season-finale is next weekend at Homestead, Fla.

KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The feud between Denny Hamlin and Brad Keselowski is not over. Far from it. The tension started at last weekendâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Nationwide race at Dover, where Hamlinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s day ended with Keselowski spinning him into the wall. Hamlin went to pit road after the race and shoved Keselowski, followed by more skirmishes between the drivers and their crews. Hamlin was critical of Keselowski again after Sprint Cup practice on Friday, saying he never reached out to apologize. Hamlin also issued a warning: â&#x20AC;&#x153;He needs to be worried whenever Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m around him.â&#x20AC;? Keselowski had a quick response on Twitter: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Quakinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;!â&#x20AC;? A representative of Keselowskiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s later said the manager of his Web site posted the tweet. Both drivers are entered in Sundayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Sprint Cup race at Kansas Speedway. Hamlin qualified for the Chase, while Keselowski did not.

Cowboys fall in OT BY STEVE HANF ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER

HIGH POINT – Futile in the first half, fumbling in the second. Something was bound to give for the Northwest or Southwest Guilford offenses when overtime put them just 10 yards from the end zone. The Cowboys got on the board for the first time in eight quarters on Tanner Butler’s strong and true 27-yard field goal. Northwest’s answer? A third-down run from 2 yards out by Dalton Dillon for a touchdown, making the final score 6-3 and sending the Cowboys into despair. Jalen Kitching ripped off his helmet where he stood and slammed it into the ground with a resounding thunk. Other Cowboys screamed their dismay into the night sky as Southwest fell to 3-3 overall and 0-1 in the Piedmont Triad 4A Conference. “Our defense is as good as anybody around,” coach Scott Schwarzer said. “Offensively we just can’t move the football. It’s frustrating. When your defense plays their heart out and you can’t score seven points, it’s sad.” The Vikings (5-2, 1-0) proved the aggressor in the second half, embarking on one 12-play drive that ended on downs 15 yards from the end zone and being stopped by fumbles in Southwest territory on their next two. Jason Nazal ripped out the first fumble and Xavier Lewis came up with the second to help the Cowboys’ defense continue its string of solid performances. For all that, though, the Southwest offense continued its recent struggles. The Cowboys collected just three first downs in the second half and never threatened until the ball was placed at the 10 for the OT session. Two runs netted zero yards, and Davis Inman’s third-down pass sailed out of the end zone to bring on Butler, a freshman who delivered in the clutch. Southwest’s defense appeared up to the task when the Vikings took over, but QB Matthew Pawlowski avoided a sack on second down and turned the play into an 8-yard dagger that would set up the Dillon TD up the middle. “The wing-T, that offense is designed to go 10 yards,” Schwarzer said. Neither team went far in the first half. In the closing seconds, Airyn Wil-

NORTHWEST PLAYER INJURED

---

Friday’s Northwest at Southwest Guilford matchup ended on a sobering note when the Vikings’ Derek Brown was taken off the field by paramedics and loaded into an ambulance. With 2:47 remaining in the fourth quarter, Brown tried to field a punt in traffic, bobbled it and got hit immediately. The ball popped free and was recovered a few yards away by another Northwest player, but Brown remained where he’d been hit. The 5-foot-8, 170-pound senior stayed on his stomach as team personnel talked to him on the field, and he could be seen kicking his feet and moving his arms at times. But Brown was not moved until the EMS squad arrived and rolled him onto a backboard. Players from both teams spent the 32-minute delay first huddled together, then in small knots trying to stay loose for the conclusion. A school official said Brown blacked out on the hit but was immediately talking afterward. He asked to get up but was told to remain still for precautionary measures. – STEVE HANF

lis and four teammates lined up on one hash mark and the other seven players were wide left for the Cowboys’ trickplay formation. It would be the biggest gainer of the night for Southwest. Willis tried to hit Justin Surgeon streaking down the middle, but the pass floated and allowed the defense to step up, resulting in an impressive lick on Surgeon. The ball caromed into the air – right into the waiting arms of Braxton Daye, who finished off a 36-yard completion. A final shot at the end zone, however, came up empty at the buzzer. For the half, each team punted five times. Northwest gained 56 yards of total offense and Southwest finished at 104. shanf@hpe.com | 888-3526

RAGSDALE 31, EAST FORSYTH 0 JAMESTOWN – Ragsdale’s offensive line plowed through East Forsyth and the Tigers’ defense notched its second straight shutout against a Piedmont Triad 4A foe in Friday night’s 31-0 victory. The Tigers (7-0, 2-0 PTC) posted 207 yards rushing and 170 yards through the air. Luke Heavner finished 12-for-18 passing with TD passes of 11 yards to Luke Sonricker and 41 yards to Tyquan Roberts. D-onovan Smith paced the ground game with 98 yards on 21 carries and DeSean Anderson scored on a 10-yard run. Heavner added a QB sneak into the end zone and Kasey Redfern made a 28-yard field goal and all four PATs in the rout. “We rushed for over 200 yards and threw for 170, didn’t allow a sack – you’ve got to be proud of the offensive line,” said Tigers coach Tommy Norwood of tackles Caleb Cates and Andy Willard, guard Jordan Morris and Tyler Ritter, center Elliott Cobb and tight end Pete Romer. The defense, meanwhile, held East (2-5, 0-2) to just 87 yards of total offense and four first downs. Daniel McNeill enjoyed a big game on that side of the ball for the Tigers, who visit rival Southwest Guilford next Friday. E. Forsyth Ragsdale

SOUTHERN GUILFORD 35, RANDLEMAN 7

Ledford’s Steven Fuquay (2) breaks through for a big gainer as Central Davidson’s Ty’Ron Hall (88) and Jake Smith give chase on Friday night in Wallburg.

Panthers stuff Spartans BY ZACH KEPLEY THOMASVILLE TIMES

WALLBURG – Finishing their nonconference schedule, the Ledford Panthers played near flawless football, roughing up Central Davidson 28-14 Friday night at Panther Stadium. Ball control was the name of the game in the first half, as Central had three possessions to Ledford’s two. Central started the game at its own 35 with an 11-play drive that chewed up 6:00 off the clock. The misdirection offense gave Ledford fits as the Spartans moved the ball with ease. Ledford (3-3) stiffened when needed, slamming the door to force a turnover on downs at the 3. In a reversal of its game with East Davidson a week ago, the Panthers controlled the clock on its opening drive, stringing together positive runs while tossing the ball just enough to keep the Central defense out of the box. The Panthers ran 19 plays to chewed

up 8:15, with Jonathan Reid taking an end around from quarterback Steven Fuquay and dashing four yards to the left into the end zone to cap the drive. Fuquay booted through the extra point for a 7-0 Panther lead. Central took its second turn on offense and did what it didn’t do on its first drive – put points on the board to tie things at 7-7. The sides opened up the passing game to start the second half but did not have immediate success. Fuquay stuck to the passing game and it eventually paid off, as he connected with Jonathan Shelton on a 28yard pass play for six. Fuquay drilled the PAT to make it 14-7. Ledford’s Chris Ross blocked a punt and recovered in the end zone to make it 21-7.

Jobs data send oil prices tumbling Oil prices tumbled Friday as unemployment hit a 26-year high, sowing more doubts about the strength of the economic recovery and crude demand. Benchmark crude for November delivery fell 87 cents a barrel to settle at $69.95 on the New York Mercantile Exchange. Prices fell as low as $68.32 earlier in the day. Heating oil and gasoline prices also fell. Natural gas, which fell 8 percent Thursday after the government reported consumption has dropped so low that the U.S. is now storing more than at any other time on record, added 25.2 cents to settle at $4.718 per 1,000 cubic feet.

BofA forms CEO search committee CHARLOTTE (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Bank of America Corp. said Friday it created a six-member committee of directors to find a successor for CEO Ken Lewis. The move comes two days after the bank said Lewis plans to retire at the end of the year. The committee is being led by Bank of America Chairman Walter Massey,

spokesman Bob Stickler confirmed. Massey took over as chairman earlier this year after shareholders voted at the bankâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s annual meeting to split the chairman and CEO positions at the bank. Lewis served as chairman and CEO since 2001. Other members include Charles Gifford, Thomas May, Thomas Ryan, Donald

Powell, and Charles Holliday. The committee briefly met after a regular bank board meeting Friday. Stickler said the committee recognizes the â&#x20AC;&#x153;need for speed in the process,â&#x20AC;? but also wants to find the right replacement. At this time, the committee has not retained a search firm, Stickler said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;(The committee) will

start their work in earnest next week,â&#x20AC;? he said. Lewis is stepping down from Charlotte, N.C.based Bank of America after almost a year of strife that followed its purchase of Merrill Lynch & Co. Bank of America has been accused of failing to properly tell shareholders about losses at Merrill and bonuses given

Treasurys prices fall as investors take profits NEW YORK â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Treasurys on Friday gave up some of the previous dayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s big gains as investors locked in profits ahead of a big round of auctions next week. The price of the benchmark 10-year Treasury note fell 10/32 to 103 12/32, pushing its yield up to 3.22 percent from 3.18 percent late Thursday. The yield on the 10-year note is closely tied to interest rates on consumer loans. Treasury prices had surged Thursday, pushing yields to their highest levels since the spring, as stocks tumbled on a disappointing manufacturing report and a weaker-thanexpected figure on weekly jobless claims.

Trustee sues Madoffs to get money back NEW YORK â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Bernard Madoffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s brother, sons and a niece used the family finance business like a â&#x20AC;&#x153;piggy bank,â&#x20AC;? a court-appointed trustee charged Friday as he demanded in a lawsuit that they return almost $200 million in money to be distributed to cheated investors. The trustee, Irving Picard, sought $198.7 million from Madoffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s brother, Peter, who had worked at Madoffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Manhattan investment company since 1965, and sons, Mark and Andrew. Also sued was Shana D. Madoff, Bernard Madoffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s niece and Peter Madoffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s daughter.

Allergan suing FDA over new policy NEW YORK â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Allergan Inc., the maker of the Botox wrinkle treatment, challenged the governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ban on offlabel drug marketing to doctors, saying it violates the companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s right to freedom of speech. The company contends in a lawsuit filed Thursday that it should be able to educate doctors about the risks and benefits of using treatments for unapproved uses. ENTERPRISE NEWS SERVICE REPORTS

employees of the investment bank before the deal closed Jan. 1. The bank is under scrutiny because it has received $45 billion in TARP money, including $20 billion to help offset Merrillâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s losses. Shares of Bank of America rose 23 cents, or 1.4 percent, to $16.44 in afternoon trading.

Jobless rate hit 9.8 percent in September WASHINGTON (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The unemployment rate rose to 9.8 percent in September, the highest since June 1983, as employers cut far more jobs than expected. The report shows that the worst recession since the 1930s is still inflicting widespread pain and underscores one of the biggest threats to the nascent economic recovery: that consumers, worried about job losses and stagnant wages, will restrain spending. Consumer spending accounts for about 70 percent of the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s economy. Most analysts expect the economy to continue to improve, but at a slow, uneven pace. Government stimulus efforts, such as the Cash for Clunkers auto rebates, likely

boosted the economy in the JulySeptember quarter, but economists worry that growth will slow once the impact of such programs fades. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Consumers ... are going to struggle to increase their income,â&#x20AC;? said Brian Fabbri, North American chief economist for BNP Paribas. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re struggling, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not consuming. That just takes some of the legs out of recovery.â&#x20AC;? The Labor Department said Friday that the economy lost a net total of 263,000 jobs last month, from a downwardly revised 201,000 in August. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s worse than Wall Street economistsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; expectations of 180,000 job losses, according to a survey by Thomson Reuters. The unemployment rate rose from 9.7 percent in

August, matching expectations. If laid-off workers who have settled for part-time work or have given up looking for new jobs are included, the unemployment rate rose to 17 percent, the highest on records dating from 1994. All told, 15.1 million Americans are now out of work, the department said. And 7.2 million jobs have been eliminated since the recession began in December 2007. The department said 571,000 of the unemployed dropped out of the work force last month, presumably out of frustration over the lack of jobs. That sent the participation rate, or the percentage of the population either working or looking for work, to a 23-year low.

NEW YORK (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Regulators have shut down Warren Bank in Warren, Mich., the 96th U.S. bank failure this year as loan defaults rise in the worst financial climate in decades. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. took over Warren Bank, with about $538 million in assets and $501 million in deposits as of July 31. The Huntington National Bank, based in Columbus, Ohio, agreed to assume the deposits and about $83 million of the assets of the failed bank. The FDIC will retain the remaining assets for later disposition. Warren Bank branches will reopen Saturday as offices of Huntington National Bank. The failure of Warren Bank is expected to cost the deposit insurance fund an estimated $275 million. Ninety-six banks have failed so far this year as losses have mounted on commercial real estate and other soured loans in the wake of the financial crisis and the recession that has gripped the economy. The failures have cost the fund that insures bank deposits about $25 billion, the FDIC said Tuesday. The fund has been so sapped by the wave of collapsing banks that it now has fallen into the red. The FDIC expects the cost of bank failures to grow to about $100 billion over the next four years, up from an estimate of $70 billion made in the spring.

Bondholders, board OK CIT restructuring NEW YORK (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Struggling CIT Group Inc. has launched a debt restructuring effort it hopes will trim at least $5.7 billion from its balance sheet, but also is asking bondholders to approve a prepackaged reorganization plan in case it is forced to file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. New York-based CIT, one of the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s largest lenders to small and mid-

size businesses, has been devastated by the downturn in the credit markets and is attempting to restructure its operations to remain in business. CIT received $2.3 billion in federal bailout aid last fall, a $3 billion emergency loan in July from some of its largest bondholders, and bought back $1 billion in debt but still needs to reduce its debt burden to survive.

The company said late Thursday that its restructuring plan has been approved by its board and by the steering committee of its bondholders. Under terms of the deal, bondholders would exchange their current notes for a portion of five series of newly issued secured notes, with maturities ranging from four to eight years, and/or newly issued preferred shares.

The exchange offers will expire just before midnight Oct. 29. However, for the out-of-court debt restructuring to be successful, CIT said at least $5.7 billion worth of debt must be able to be wiped off of its balance sheet. Therefore, CIT also is asking most bondholders and other holders of CIT debt to approve a prepackaged reorganization plan so the company has

the option of filing for and quickly exiting Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in the event the debt swap doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t achieve its goals. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We believe this plan maximizes franchise value and can be executed quickly and effectively through a series of voluntary debt exchange offers or an expedited in-court restructuring process,â&#x20AC;? said Chairman and CEO Jeffrey M. Peek, in a statement.

NEW YORK (AP) – Investors retreated further from stocks Friday as the pile of disappointing economic reports grew larger. A modest slide left stocks lower for a second week, the first consecutive drop since July. The Dow Jones industrial average fell for a fourth day, losing 22 points one day after sliding 203 on reports of weak manufacturing and a jump in claims for jobless benefits. The loss Friday came as the government said employers cut more jobs than economists had expected last month and that orders at factories fell. The reports added to concerns that the economy’s recovery could be further off than had been hoped. “There’s been a lot of talk particularly in the last couple of months that we’re seeing a turnaround in unem-

ployment, and obviously that’s not the case,” said Dan Cook, senior market analyst at IG Markets in Chicago. Meanwhile, the surprise drop in factory orders added to the lackluster economic readings of the past two weeks. The Commerce Department said factory orders fell 0.8 percent in August. Analysts were expecting an increase. With nerves running high, stocks have fallen in seven of the last eight days. The Dow has lost about 4.3 percent since coming within 82 points of the 10,000 level on Sept. 23. The Dow fell 21.61, or 0.2 percent, to 9,487.67, its lowest close since Sept. 4. The index fell as much as 79 points during trading. The broader Standard & Poor’s 500 index fell 4.64, or 0.5 percent, to 1,025.21, and the Nasdaq composite index fell 9.37, or 0.5 percent, to 2,048.11.

assets in the form of employer securities. The health care trust would cover 120,000 Chrysler retirees and dependents. Under the bankruptcy arrangement, the United Auto Workers union is getting a 55 percent stake in the new Chrysler, which will be used to fund its retiree health care obligations. The proposed exemption would implement Chrysler’s plan to trans-

fer a $4.59 billion promissory note and company securities into the health trust. Italy’s Fiat Group SpA took control of the Auburn Hills, Mich.-based automaker after it emerged from bankruptcy protection in June. Fiat was given a 20 percent stake in Chrysler by the U.S. government, with an opportunity to take on 35 percent. A Chrysler spokeswom-

an declined to comment. The government request was expected. Labor Department officials filed a similar request last month for General Motors Co., which also went through a government-led bankruptcy last summer. The plan includes the creation of a board to oversee the trust, set policies and select managers to make investments and oversee the health care funds.

World Bank warns of funding constraints ISTANBUL (AP) – World Bank president Robert Zoellick warned Friday that the international lender could find money running tight within a year if crisis-driven demands on its funding keep up at their record pace and the richer countries fail to stump up more cash. Speaking to reporters before the start of annual meetings of the World Bank and International Monetary Fund annual meeting here, Zoellick said the World Bank deployed a record $33 billion in its fiscal year to June 2009 and is already on course to lend a further $40 billion this year. At present, the World Bank has $100 billion to lend to middle-income countries – the poorest countries get lending from the World

If, and when, that money runs dry, the Bank may have to resort to rationing. “By the middle of next year, we will start to face serious constraints,” he said. “We are seeing, as we look into 2011, that we’ll go through that $100 billion and probably beyond.” He said that the World Bank would be a worthy recipient of funds as it had entered the financial crisis in a well-capitalized position and was implementing reforms to make it more efficient and more self-sufficient, such as increasing the interest rate on loans and increasing the voice of develping countries.

to increase the share of developing countries in the World Bank by at least 3 percentage points by early next year to 47 percent. “I think we have a good case to make,” said Zoellick. “We have the ability for another strong year, but our shareholders, both developed and developing countries, are going to have to calculate how close they want to run us to the edge in terms of being able to support developing countries given an uncertain year in 2010.” The World Bank seeks to help poor and developing countries with low-interest loans, interest-free credits and grants to pay for investments in education, health care, infrastructure, agriculture and natural resources management.

Disney’s Miramax to trim film slate LOS ANGELES (AP) – The Walt Disney Co. said Friday its Miramax Films division will slash the number of movies it produces each year, which it says will lead to “significant cost savings.” The division will now produce about three movies a year, down from the current six to eight, and eliminate 50 jobs in New York and Los Angeles by January. About 20 employees will remain, mostly at the New York headquarters. The announcement Friday came two weeks after Disney studio chief Dick Cook said he was stepping down immediately as chairman after nearly four decades with the company. Daniel Battsek will continue as president of Miramax. Alan Bergman, president of The Walt Disney Studios, said in a statement that the decision to cut Miramax’s movie output “maximizes operating efficiencies and provides significant cost savings” while allowing the divi-

sion to focus on high-quality entertainment. Disney bought Miramax in 1993 for $80 million, hoping for the kind of inexpensive hits like “Pulp Fiction” delivered by founding brothers

The division will now produce about three movies a year, down from the current six to eight. Bob and Harvey Weinstein. While some of its recent films have brought critical success, Miramax has largely failed to bring in big dollars at the box office. Its latest hit was last December’s “Doubt,” starring Meryl Streep, which had five Oscar nominations but grossed just over $46 million worldwide.

SEATTLE (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Mesa, Ariz., is the 1,000th city to sign the U.S. Conference of Mayorsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; climate change agreement. Seattle Mayor Greg Nickels brought the idea to the conference in 2005. Nickels is now president of the mayorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s group â&#x20AC;&#x201C; members are meeting in Seattle this week to talk about climate protection and the recession. The agreement is an effort to meet the international Kyoto Protocols for reducing greenhouse gases. The mayors who have signed on represent more than 86 million Americans. Nickels will lead a delegation of U.S. mayors to a global climate change conference in Copenhagen in December. Mayor Scott Smith of Mesa, Ariz., said not all the mayors agree on how to deal with climate change but they do have a common goal of responsible environmental stewardship.

CBS employee pleads not guilty in Letterman plot NEW YORK (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; A CBS News employee is out of jail on bond after pleading not guilty to trying to blackmail David Letterman for $2 million.

Halderman entered his plea as he was arraigned on an attempted grand larceny charge Friday in a Manhattan court. He posted the $200,000 bail and was

Toyota Prius stays on top in mileage BY ANN M. JOB THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NUTS & BOLTS

There’s a little something extra for car buyers who have their hearts set on top fuel mileage in the Toyota Prius. But they’d better not get tired of the car’s wedge shape. The world’s best-selling gasoline-electric hybrid car is out for 2010 with slight increases in length and width, more horsepower, improved steering, upgraded interior and new features but with the same shape as before and pretty much the same exterior styling. It turns out the Prius’ wedge shape, subtly honed so updates for 2010 aren’t even likely to be noticed, helps make for an extremely efficient and “slippery through the air” coefficient of drag. It’s this smooth movement through air and lack of air turbulence that helps give the Prius a fuel economy rating from the federal government that’s increased slightly this year, going from a combined city/highway 46 miles per gallon for a 2009 model to 50 mpg. This means the Prius remains the highest-mileage vehicle with internal combustion engine in America. Starting manufacturer’s suggested retail price,

–

The top-of-the-line 2010 Prius V goes for more than $33,000 when it’s fitted with advanced technology. including destination charge, of $22,750 hasn’t changed from 2009. Still, Honda’s new-for2010 Insight gas-electric hybrid hatchback that looks like a Prius on the outside with similar wedge shape has a lower starting retail price of $20,510. The 2010 Ford Fusion Hybrid starts at $27,995, which is near the starting price for the top Prius model for 2010.

Indeed, the top-of-the-line 2010 Prius V can be had for more than $33,000 when it’s fitted with advanced technology package and other goodies, as the test 2010 Prius showed. But even at this price, the tester didn’t include a moonroof. Toyota officials call the 2010 Prius a third-generation car, coming after the first Prius debuted in the States in 2000. An earlier Prius was sold in Japan

but never came to these shores. With each succeeding generation, the Prius has grown larger, and the 2010 mid-size model is no exception. It’s 0.6 inch longer, overall, than last year’s model but rides on the same 106.3inch, front-wheel drive platform. It’s also 0.8 inch wider and tips the scales at more than 3,000 pounds, which is some 100 more

than the previous car. I noticed a heftier feel in the test car, and a more connected feel to the steering compared with the artificial feel that the steering had in earlier Priuses. But the most noticeable improvement is the energetic power. The new Prius uses a 1.8liter, double overhead cam, four-cylinder engine whose larger displacement from last year’s 1.6 liters contrib-

2010 Toyota Prius V BASE PRICE: $22,000 for II model; $23,000 for III; $25,800 for IV; $27,270 for V AS TESTED: $33,079 TYPE: Front-engine, frontwheel drive, five-passenger, mid-size hatchback ENGINE: 1.8-liter, double overhead cam, four cylinder engine with VVT-i and 60-kilowatt electric motor MILEAGE: 51 mpg (city), 48 mpg (highway) TOP SPEED: NA LENGTH: 175.6 inches WHEELBASE: 106.3 inches CURB WEIGHT: 3,042 pounds BUILT AT: Japan OPTIONS: Advanced technology package (includes pre-collision system, radar cruise control, navigation system)

utes to more horsepower – now 98 – and good fuel mileage because the engine doesn’t have to work so much at high revs. Coupled with electric power from the motor-generator-battery pack system that automatically kicks in to propel the car during startups and accelerations, the powerplant package is bound to surprise drivers.
