Eight months after it was passed by the Democratic-controlled Congress at the urging of President Barack Obama, the federal stimulus remains a point of contention. The High Point Enterprise looks at the local impact of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act and the debate that surrounds the monumental, $800 billion effort. BY PAUL B. JOHNSON ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

TRIAD – Ray Lomax’s perspective of the $800 billion federal stimulus comes down to the magnitude of a single contract for his construction company. Lomax Construction Inc. serves as the general contractor for an American ROAD R e co ve r y TO RECOVERY? and Reinvestment Stimulus Act project funding in the to build a Triad new fire ■■■ station at Piedmont Triad International Airport. The more than $4 million project represents about 15 percent to 20 percent of the total dollar amount of contracts that the Colfaxbased company should handle in an average year. “It’s very significant to us,” said Lomax, vice president of the business. “Obviously, if we weren’t committed to this work, we would have been bidding other work. And it’s impossible to say how successful we would have

At peak construction, Lomax and its subcontractors could have 30 to 40 workers on site each day, he said. PTIA wouldn’t have been able to fund the new fire station without the stimulus, said airport Assistant Director Kevin Baker. The city of High Point has received $11.3 million in American Recovery and Reinvestment Act funding out of $36.3 million it has requested this year, City Manager Strib Boynton said. If not for the stimulus, the city wouldn’t have had an opportunity for any of the federal funding, with the possible exception of $404,000 in Byrne Justice Assistance Grant money for the High Point Police Department, Boynton said. All of the city stimulus appropriations involve projects or initiatives that local officials had planned to do at some point, but no money currently was available, Boynton said. In some instances, Boynton said the city declined seeking stimulus money because it would have involved future commitments – and possible local tax increases – to support the programs once federal funding expired. That’s the reason the city didn’t

High Point has received $11.3 million through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, or federal stimulus, so far this year. The money includes: • $5.9 million in transportation project funding, which includes resurfacing part of Lexington Avenue from Main Street to Montlieu Avenue, realigning Deep River Road at Eastchester Drive, widening part of Burton Road and improving parts of Clinard Farm Road. • $2.6 million for housing and community development, including capital grants for the High Point Housing Authority • $1.4 million to replace obsolete sewer lines in nine neighborhoods • Nearly $1 million for energy efficiency measures • $404,000 for the High Point Police Department

Beverly Perdue’s office. Reflecting the scope of the stimulus, the federal money to counties is split into 22 categories on NCRecovery. gov, from food stamps and extended jobless benefits to road projects and support for law enforcement agencies. As of late September, the state of North Carolina had received 2,325 separate awards totaling $4 billion, according to the White House-maintained Web site Recovery.gov. Advocates for the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act say local projects and spending incrementally have helped and will assist the economy as it recovers from the worst period since the Great Depression. Detractors of the stimulus, proposed by President Barack Obama and passed by the Democratic-controlled Congress at the first of the year, say the funding hasn’t turned around the economy and has only added to the massive debt burden on future generations. Rep. Howard Coble, R-6th, who voted against the stimulus, remains skeptical of the promises of better days because of the spending. “Overall, if it’s done any good, it’s very limited,” the congressman said.

Thomasville agencies offer their support BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

THOMASVILLE – The uncertainty of the economy caused Douglas and Jodi Knight to attend an event Saturday aimed at helping those who are struggling due to the economy. “Anything can happen to me, too,” said Douglas Knight, who has a manufacturing job in Thomasville. “My (employer) has laid off people and I can’t say whether I am going to have a job or not. I’m laying on a limb just like everybody else. My job is real slow. It’s slow everywhere. We are not guaranteed.” During the Keeping Thomasville Strong event, the Knights were among the first 50 to attend the event held at the

Tom A. Finch Community YMCA. The event, sponsored by the YMCA, provided the opportunity for residents who are struggling to talk to agencies that offer a variety of resources and information. “It was the idea of the mission development committee,” said Tommy Hodges, Tom A. Finch Community YMCA chief executive officer. “We looked at trying to do an event we had not done before to try to reach as many people as we could in the community. It’s one of those things where quantity is maybe not the measure of it. If a few families come in and get access to services that they wouldn’t have otherwise gotten, I think it’s a success.” Keeping Thomasville Strong allowed

This Feb. 9, 2007, photo shows the U.S. District Judge Andre Davis of Maryland presiding over a mock trial in Baltimore. President Barack Obama has an opportunity to reshape the nation’s most conservative federal appeals court and has started with a Maryland judge whose previous appointment by President Bill Clinton was never acted on by the Senate and a Virginia Supreme Court justice who was recommended by the state’s two Democratic senators.

Obama begins overhaul of 4th Circuit Court RICHMOND, Va. (AP) – President Barack Obama has begun reshaping the nation’s most conservative federal appeals court, one that has handled many high-profile terrorism and detainee cases and generally supported the anti-terrorism initiatives of former President George W. Bush. Five of the nation’s 20 open circuit judgeships belong to the Richmond, Va.-based 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. The vacancies – fully a third of the court’s 15 judgeships – make the 4th Circuit more ripe than any other federal appeals panel for a fundamental shift in ideology, and greatly increase the odds that the court will undo some of its recent rulings.

split for the moment between Democratic and Republican appointees. “Down the road, if indeed what we think will happen happens, it may end up being more than one or two votes in the more liberal vein,” said Barbara A. Perry, a government professor at Sweet Briar College in Sweet Briar, Va., who has written six books about the U.S. Supreme Court. Many detainee and terrorism cases come to the 4th, which handles federal appeals in Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland, North Carolina and South Carolina, because national security facilities are concentrated in northern Virginia and because federal prosecutors there have had success getting jury convictions in such trials.

Obama started his makeover of the court with the nominations of U.S. District Judge Andre Davis of Maryland, whose nomination to the circuit bench by President Bill Clinton died in the Senate, and Virginia Supreme Court Justice Barbara Keenan. Should they win confirmation, Democratic appointees will outnumber Republicans 7-5 on the 4th Circuit, with three more vacancies. Nationally, there are 75 U.S. District Court positions open and 20 vacancies on the federal appeals courts. Obama has made nominations for seven of those appeals court openings, including for two vacancies on the Philadelphia-based 3rd Circuit, also evenly

A no-contest plea is not an admission of guilt but is treated as a conviction at sentencing. Police say McCoy dined with the 27-year-old Southfield woman on April 24 at

a restaurant in Ferndale. The woman told investigators McCoy said he forgot his wallet in her car and asked for the keys. Police say McCoy then took off in the car. Defense attorney Terri Antisdale says McCoy is a “very nice man who made a bad decision.”

Negligence factor in Russian power plant accident MOSCOW – Russia’s top industrial safety oversight official said Saturday that negligence was a major factor in a devastating accident at the country’s biggest hydroelectric power plant, and hinted that high-level officials could face trial over the disaster that killed 75 workers. Outlining a report on the causes of the Aug. 17 accident at the Sayano-Shushenskaya plant in southern Siberia, Rostekhnadzor director Nikolai Kutin described it in chilling detail. Part of an overstrained turbine unit weighing 1,500 tons snapped off its restraining bolts and sailed into the air, he said, unleashing flooding, short circuits and wreckage.

G-7 finance ministers warn recovery ’fragile’ ISTANBUL – Finance ministers from the Group of Seven rich countries warned the recovery remains “fragile� and tried to talk up the U.S. dollar amid fears it could fall farther and disrupt the global economy. The officials said in their closing statement after meeting Saturday in Istanbul that decisive moves by governments had improved conditions for the world economy and financial markets. But they warned against “complacency� since growth prospects remained “fragile� and unemployment continues to rise.

Quake buries villages

AP

A road collapses in Padang Pariaman, Indonesia, Saturday.

PADANG, Indonesia (AP) – The death toll from Indonesia’s massive earthquake will likely double as officials on Saturday reached rural communities wiped out by landslides that buried more than 600 people under mountains of

mud, most of them guests at a wedding celebration. Virtually nothing remained of four villages that had dotted the hillside of the Padang Pariman district in Indonesia’s West Sumatra just three days ago, said officials

and an Associated Press photographer who flew over the devastated area. Hundreds of doctors, nurses, search and rescue experts and cleanup crews arrived at the regional airport.

Berlusconi: Sicily death toll could reach 50 ROME – Rescue workers dug for a second day Saturday through piles of mud and debris as they searched for about 30 missing people from a mudslide that has killed at least 21 in Sicily. Premier Silvio Berlusconi said he feared the death toll from Italy’s worst mudslides in a decade could rise to 50. The Italian premier is expected to survey the area by helicopter today, his office said. Rivers of mud unleashed by heavy rains flooded parts of Messina, a city in eastern Sicily, on Friday, sweeping away cars and collapsing buildings.

Afghan policeman fires on U.S. troops, killing 2 KABUL – An Afghan policeman on patrol with U.S. soldiers opened fire on the Americans, killing two of them before fleeing, officials said Saturday, raising questions about discipline in the ranks of the Afghan forces and possible infiltration by insurgents. Training and operating jointly with Afghan police and soldiers is key to the U.S. strategy of dealing with the spreading Taliban-led insurgency and, ultimately, allowing international forces to leave Afghanistan. But Afghan forces have periodically turned their guns on international soldiers.

Iraqi forces arrest more than 100 in Mosul BAGHDAD – Iraqi security forces have detained more than 100 suspects in sweeps through Mosul to try to cripple the country’s last major stronghold of Sunni insurgents, a commander said Saturday. The offensive, which began earlier this week, is the latest attempt to break the networks of al-Qaida in Iraq and other groups in the Mosul region in northern Iraq. But the insurgents have bounced back each time with little apparent damage to their ability to strike Iraqi and U.S. troops and their allies. ENTERPRISE NEWS SERVICE REPORTS

Iran: Nuke site not hidden TEHRAN, Iran (AP) – Iran’s president hit back Saturday at President Barack Obama’s accusation that his country had sought to hide its construction of a new nuclear site, arguing that Tehran reported the facility to the U.N. even earlier than required. The Iranian president defended his government’s actions as the head of the U.N.’s nuclear monitoring agency,

AP

Mohamed ElBaradei, arrived Saturday to arrange an inspection of the uranium enrichment facility near the holy city of Qom. The revelation that Iran has been building a new nuclear plant has heightened the concern of the U.S. and many of its allies, which suspect Tehran is using a civilian nuclear program as a cover for developing a weapons-making capa-

bility. Iran denies such an aim, saying it only wants to generate energy. Obama and the leaders of France and Britain accused Iran of keeping the construction hidden from the world for years. The U.S. president said last month that Iran’s actions “raised grave doubts� about its promise to use nuclear technology for peaceful purposes only.

EMANILA, Philippines (AP) – Typhoon Parma cut a path across the Philippines’ northern edge on Saturday, killing four people but sparing the capital from a second flood disaster as the storm churned toward Taiwan. Tens of thousands of Filipinos had evacuated their homes as the storm bore down on the main island of Luzon just eight days after an earlier tempest left Manila awash in floods that killed almost 300 people. Also helping to reduce the damage, Parma weakened slightly and changed course overnight Friday so that it missed central

Luzon and clipped the more sparsely populated and mountainous north. Still, winds of 108 mph (175 kph) battered towns in at least two provinces and pelted the northeast of the country with downpours that swelled rivers to bursting, toppled power pylons and trees, and cut communication lines to outlying towns, officials said. Parma was heading northwest toward Taiwan, which declared a storm warning Saturday and began evacuating villages in southern Kaohsiung county, where 700 people were killed in a typhoon in August.

Focus in Samoa moves from rescue to survivor aid APIA, Samoa (AP) – Samoan officials shifted their focus from rescuing lives to providing survivors with food, water and power, but stressed it didn’t mean they were giving up on the missing days after earthquaketriggered waves killed 170 in the region. Electricity and water services were restored in about half of the affected villages in Samoa and American Samoa,

and almost all of the territory was expected to have power from generators within three to five days, said Ken Tingman, the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s federal coordinating officer. FEMA will also establish an office to provide housing assistance to residents displaced after Tuesday’s earthquake and tsunami, said American Samoa Gov. Togiola Tulafono.

Obama eyes ways to help laid-off workers WASHINGTON (AP) – The Obama administration is considering steps to ease the burdens of laid-off workers, including possible extensions of unemployObama ment and health benefits, officials said on Saturday. The administration has stopped short of calling for a second economic stimulus package to augment the $787 billion measure approved this year. But with the jobless rate continuing to climb, President Barack Obama said on Saturday that he is exploring “additional options to promote job creation.â€? Administration aides said possibilities include: • Extending enhanced unemployment-insurance benefits beyond Dec. 31, when they are set to expire. • Extending a tax credit for laid-off workers who buy health insurance through the COBRA program. That program allows workers to keep their company’s health insurance plan for 18 months after they leave their job, if they pay the premiums. • Extending a tax credit for first-time home buyers. This credit also is set to expire soon. The administration has discussed these possibilities with congressional leaders, officials said, but no decisions have been made.

Man appears in court on charge of stalking reporter Erin Andrews CHICAGO (AP) – A man accused of taping surreptitious nude videos of ESPN reporter Erin Andrews while she was alone in hotel rooms appeared in federal court Saturday and was ordered returned to California. Michael David Barrett made an initial appearance before U.S. Magistrate Judge Arlander Keys, who ordered him returned to Los Angeles, where charges against him were filed. Keys set another hearing for Monday to determine if Barrett will be freed on bond to return or must go in custody.

Barrett, 48, was arrested Friday night at O’Hare airport as he arrived from Buffalo, N.Y., the FBI said. He faces federal charges of interstate stalking for taking Andrews the videos, trying to sell them to celebrity Web site TMZ and posting the videos online. Defense attorney Rick Beuke told reporters after court that he had known Barrett for about 10 years and never known him to be in trouble.

People react to the announcement that Chicago would not be the host city for the 2016 Summer Olympic Games in Chicago on Friday.

Olympics loss forces Chicago to rethink plans CHICAGO (AP) – Chicago’s dream of an Olympics-sized stimulus was dashed when the 2016 Summer Games were awarded to Rio de Janeiro, and the loss amounts to more than a bruised ego for the nation’s thirdlargest city. Officials can no longer trumpet the $13.7 billion citywide economic impact local Olympics organizers estimated would come of games-related jobs, construction, tourism and transportation. They’ll also have no excuse for distraction in a city grappling with a mounting deficit and violence that has led to dozens of deaths of city teens each year. The loss marked a stunning defeat for Mayor Richard M. Daley, who spent three years working to sell Chicago resi-

Still, a recent Chicago Tribune/WGN poll showed Daley’s approval rating had sunk to 35 percent in part because of skepticism over the Olympics and an unpopular deal to lease who thought their next city parking meters to a seven years were going to private contractor. be full of work,� said Jane Zefran, 63, a semi-retired Chicago resident. “Now, heavens only knows what will happen. It’s such a shame.� People around town seem doubtful the loss will scar Daley as he dents on the games, often highlighting job creation and a financial influx that would help the city emerge from a recessional slump. “I just know so many construction workers

Travolta attorney in Bahamas trial denies setup

FAMOUS, FABULOUS, FRIVOLOUS

NASSAU, Bahamas (AP) – A lawyer for John Travolta denied Friday that he tried to set up a former Bahamas senator who is on trial for allegedly attempting to extort $25 million from the movie star. Attorney Michael McDermott told the court

he was following police instructions when he secretly recorded conversations with Pleasant Bridgewater, who is accused of demanding the money on behalf of a paramedic who treated the actor’s 16-year-old son, Jett, following a seizure that led to his death.

The recordings are expected to be played in court next week. Prosecutors say the former senator and the paramedic, Tarino Lightbourne, later agreed to accept $10 million in installments over a four-year period.

He may have endeared himself to some fans, but his likability has been thrown into jeopardy. Reaction poured in Friday, including from other late-night hosts. Jay Leno, Letterman’s longtime late-night rival, didn’t waste a moment in addressing the situation. He kicked off his monologue on NBC’s “The Jay Leno Show�

with several jokes about Letterman. He opened: “If you came here tonight for sex with a talk show host, you’ve got the wrong studio.� On NBC’s “Late Night,� Jimmy Fallon also worked it into his monologue: “There’s a new book out called “Why Women Have Sex� that says there are 237 reasons why women have sex.

Spicy fundraiser Cooks heat up Thomasville at the First Presbyterian Chili Cook-off BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

THOMASVILLE – Dwayne and Donna Burchett have another year of bragging rights as the First Presbyterian Chili Cook-off champions. Arriving at the fourth annual First Presbyterian Chili Cook-off five hours before the start of the event Saturday, the husband and wife, who make up the group “Double D’s,” put together the winning chili recipe for the second consecutive year. A crowd favorite, the Burchetts sold out of their chili within two hours of the cook-off’s 11 a.m. start. “We are probably one of the only ones here who cooks on site,” Dwayne Burchett said. “All of our chili cooks here. Everybody else kind of brings theirs in pre-cooked. We have been cooking this recipe for the past three years. It’s really no recipe. You just keep adding a touch of this and a touch of that until you get it. That’s why you start so early in the morning.” Thomasville Rotary Club, which took home the people’s choice selection, finished second, and Calvary United Church Of Christ earned third place. The cook-off had eight contestants. Proceeds from the chili cook-off, sponsored by the ThomasvilleMedicalCenter Heartburn Treatment Center, will support four local

A tribute to our Beautiful Sister WILMA JANE BESHEARS KERSEY

When God called her Home, June 3, 2009.

A Sister is one who reaches for you hand and touches your heart. Sisters are for sharing laughter and memories. We miss your witty ways and your nice compliments. You are a beautiful person. Not a day goes by you aren’t remembered. God saw you getting tired, He knew you needed rest. He put his arms around you and whispered “Come to Me.’’ His Garden must be beautiful, for he only takes the best. It broke our hearts to lose you, but you did not go alone For part of us went with you the day. God called you home. You’re in the Arms of an Angel now.

Ella Grace Boos, 4, helps to sift through the remains of her grandfather’s house that was destroyed by the wildfire last April in the Barefoot Resort in North Myrtle Beach, S.C.

Months later, no review of S.C. wildfire CONWAY, S.C. (AP) – The fire chief in one of South Carolina’s busiest tourist spots said he won’t alter his agency’s practices even though his crews failed to extinguish a small blaze that mushroomed into the worst wildfire in state history. Chief Garry Alderman, who heads the fire and rescue agency for wildfire-prone Horry County, also told The Associated Press his department has not formally reviewed the half-acre brush fire that rekindled, destroyed 76 homes and damaged nearly 100. The blaze charred 31 square miles near Myrtle Beach in

April and sent plumes of black smoke over golf courses, restaurants and trinket shops that draw vacationers from around the country. Agencies in other fireprone areas have different methods for re-checking small fires to prevent such disasters. “I’ll be very honest about it – we haven’t come up with anything different we could do,” Alderman said a month before the fall fire season started in late September. Fires can roar back to life after smoldering undetected – sometimes for days, sometimes underground – and can be tough to head off.

Verizon fires four in wake of probe RALEIGH (AP) – Verizon Business fired four employees and disciplined a fifth for violating company rules in the wake of news the telecommunications company may have given meals and gifts to North Carolina state employees. Multiple media outlets reported Saturday that Verizon took the action after an internal investigation into the handling of its multimillion-dollar computing contract with the Division of Motor Vehicles. “We are not providing any further details, other than the discipline was appropriate based on our investigation,” said Jack Hoey, vice president of media relations for Verizon Business. The State Bureau of Investigation has been asked to investigate allegations that Verizon gave more than 60 state workers and their associates dinner at restaurants and tickets to pro hockey games and an inaugural ball. Verizon has a $51.5 million contract to help the DMV with vehicle inspections in North Carolina. The gifts have raised questions about whether the company received preferential treatment to get the state contract, but DMV Commissioner Mike Robertson said there’s been no evidence the meals were a trade for expanding the Verizon contract last year.

Teacher turnover rates dropped statewide during the one-year period that ended in March. Cumberland County saw a decrease in turnover. But in seven other school systems in the Cape Fear region, turnover increased. Hoke County had the fourth-highest turnover in the state with roughly one in five teachers leaving their jobs, though the rate dropped slightly this year. The turnover rate in

Cumberland County dropped nearly two points to 15 percent in 2008-09. Joseph Locklear, the head of human resources for the school system, said most of the turnover was due to teachers moving to other school systems. Sametris McKenney, a high school English teacher at Fuller Performance Learning Center, said she has friends who work in other counties. Outsiders generally think Cumberland County educators have more support than in rural counties, and they do, Sametris said. “Whatever we ask for, for the most part, we get it,� she said. Cumberland County schools – the fourth-largest system in the state – offers teachers an 8.5 percent salary supplement, too. The state Department of Public Instruction publishes the annual turnover report, which factors in retirements, layoffs, promotions to nonteaching positions, firings and resignations. Statewide, the average turnover per school system dropped by 1.3 percentage points to 12.7 percent, well below the national average of 16.8 percent, according to the National Commission on Teaching and America’s Future.

Military struggles to find enough chaplains TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) – Finding enough chaplains to minister to troops has become a difficult task. The Kansas Air National Guard has two of its six chaplain positions unfilled, while the Kansas Army National Guard is faring worse with nine of 15 slots vacant. Officials with the Kansas Army National Guard describe the high vacancy rate as typical

of other Guard units across the country. The Kansas Army National Guard says efforts to address the shortage, including a $10,000 sign-on bonus, $4,500 in tuition assistance and extending the age limit for new enlistees, have done little to help so far. The approaching retirement of many chaplains promises to compound the problem in the future.

Bible verses banned from Georgia school gridiron FORT OGLETHORPE, Ga. (AP) – When the Warriors of Lakeview-Fort Oglethorpe High take the field Friday night, the football team won’t be running through the cheerleaders’ usual banner bearing a Bible verse. The school district banned the banners last week over concerns they were unconstitutional and could provoke a lawsuit, angering many in

the deeply religious north Georgia town of Fort Oglethorpe. “I’m just kind of unnerved about it,� said 18-year-old Cassandra Cooksey, a recent graduate who often prayed with her fellow marching band members before football games. “It seems like the majority of people in our community want this and they don’t have a problem with it, so I think they

should be allowed to have the signs if they want to.� The move has galvanized the community. Hundreds of people attended a rally this week supporting the signs, which included messages such as: “Commit to the Lord, whatever you do, and your plans will succeed.� Many students attended class Friday wearing shirts with Bible verses and painted their cars with messages.

Mammography screening is the best available tool for ďŹ nding breast cancer early - when it is most easily treated. Even if you don’t notice a lump or other symptoms, a screening mammogram can detect changes in your breasts that could possibly be a sign of caner. When detected early, many types of breast cancer have a 90% cure rate.

ADVANCED SCREENING TREATMENT

Now Open

If something on your screening mammogram looks suspicious or unclear, a diagnostic mammogram may be recommended. At the Breast Center at Thomasville Medical Center, we understand that this can be an uneasy time, so in most cases we’ve been able to reduce the amount of time between your mammogram and diagnosis to less than 5 days-far better than the national average.

SRO says Tasers sometimes are necessary I have been a High Point police officer for 24 years. For over the past five years, I have served as a school resource officer in both a middle school and high school. Being an SRO is a job I asked for after eight years as a detective. On Sept. 11, as I was breaking up a fight at school, I fractured and dislocated my finger. One of the students complied with my intervention but another one didn’t. Even though a teacher/coach was helping to restrain that student, he was still out of control. Only after I threatened to Taser him did he comply. According to Carlvena Foster, Darlene Garrett and Amos Quick, we should not have Tasers. I guess we should “train our counselors on how to de-escalate these situations.” I realize and accept that, as a police officer, I am putting myself in harm’s way. Every teacher & administrator I have ever worked with were glad to have sworn

police officers in their schools. Unfortunately, there are aggressive and violent students in our schools. Because teachers and administrators are very limited in what they can do, we as cops have to take physical action. Sometimes that may include pepper spray or Tasers, both of which have been shown to reduce the number of officer and arrestee injuries. It’s easy to make statements without having all the facts. Many SROs are involved in their schools outside their law enforcement roles as coaches, mentors, etc. ... We take very seriously our duties as role models for the kids in our schools. We are proud to serve, even when it means the very actions we use to keep the students and staff safe are questioned by those sitting behind a desk. MIKE NIXON Trinity

Redesign Tasers to give small shock first The big controversy over the use of Tasers in our schools has a simple solution: Ask the companies that make the Tasers to redesign them. Think about what you do when you shock your finger on a doorknob after walking across the carpet in winter. It stops you for a second, right? After you’ve received that static shock, you are more careful to avoid another one for a while, especially if you think you are going to get a bigger one. Teenagers will stop what they are doing when given a much lower shock, one that does not completely disable them. After all, you want to get their attention off of what they were doing to begin

with. Modify the Tasers so they give a low-level shock the first jolt, and then increase it up each time for the next couple of jolts until it’s at full power. That way, if the teenager doesn’t stop what they are doing right away, they get another zap or two, until it’s at full power. There could also be an override switch on the taser to instantly put it at full power just in case, such as zapping someone with a gun or knife. This is a simple solution that should satisfy both sides of the argument. WAYNE QUIGLEY High Point

YOUR VIEW POLL

OUR VIEW

ack in the mid-1990s, shortly after The High Point Enterprise became a sevenday-a-week morning paper, editors embarked on a “want to be a journalist?” campaign as a method for getting readers to write for the newspaper. Among those who accepted the initial challenge were Ben Briggs, director of Preservation Greensboro; Ken Carpenter, who continues to write columns for the five Market Press editions each session of the High Point Market; Bill Flynn of WMAG radio; Anne Kimball with the Guilford Center; Ron Stowe, who then was a High Point Police Department officer; and Jim Matthews, who wrote from a Vietnam war veteran’s viewpoint; along with top-notch talents Karen Gooding and Rebecca Aldridge. Gwyn Riddick, who served as Guilford County director of the Cooperative Extension Service for years before joining the Biotechnology Center in 2003, has been writing a garden column weekly perhaps longer than any of our current local columnists. Walter Taylor wrote an award-winning outdoors column for almost a decade. A few months later, Paula G. Williams, writing about education from a teacher’s viewpoint, came aboard – she’s been contributing every other Thursday ever since. Another who joined the Enterprise columnist stable during at least a dozen years ago and has been writing every two weeks since is Patty Sawvel, an author and journalist from Kernersville. Tony English took over the “police beat” column when Stowe, who had regaled Enterprise readers with “dumb crook” stories for a halfdozen years or so, was promoted and became too busy to regularly write the column. When English’s revamped schedule made it difficult for

him to continue the column after a couple of years, we asked Capt. Denita Lynch of the High Point Fire Department to find someone to chat with readers about fires. Lee Knight, a battalion chief, has been providing expert advice in easy-to-understand language OPINION since May of 2006. A number of ministers – Al CaTom denhead and Jim Baucom were Blount the early ones – have contrib■■■ uted columns to the Faith page but Mark Nickens has become a local fixture on that page, providing readers (and a lot of Sunday school teachers) with lessons in church history. An enterprising youngster attending T. Wingate Andrews High School in the early 1990s before graduating in 1995 offered to write a weekly column for the op-ed page, giving readers a teenager’s perspective. With that effort, Eric Chernoff started something that has allowed dozens (including four this school term) of high school students over the years to bring you what’s on some their minds. This is the third year that Mary Bogest, an artist and writer who resides in High Point, has been writing an “about town” column for the Enterprise, providing the same type of coverage that three-media legend Bobbi Martin did for the Enterprise for a decade prior to her death in 1994. There isn’t enough space here to list all of those who have contributed what we call readers-write columns, so I’ll just remind you of our current local stable of writers, in addition to Bogest, Knight, Nickens,

Riddick, Sawvel and Riddick: • Sondra Foy Anderson, Steve Bryant (occasionally), Robert Healy, Mike Hughes, Kristine Kaiser and Stan Spangle Sr. on the editorial and op-ed pages, along with teen columnists Leslie Ann Blake, Julie Fox, Hailey Hendrix and Meredith Jones. • Jim Armstrong (occasionally), Tom Gillespie and also a number of health care professionals who produce Tuesday columns on Neighbors. • Guilford County Department of Public Health staffers who provide For the Health of It columns on Life&Health pages. Bill Michal’s column on sea shells has run its course for the year. • Dick Jones, who writes an outdoors column for Sports. While they don’t write columns for the Enterprise, Daniel Kennedy and Jason Queen are regular contributors as correspondents for Sports. You probably are aware that one of the latest trends in the newspaper business is to “go local” as a response to in-depth research that has shown readers everywhere crave local coverage. As you know, the Enterprise’s mission statement in part declares the publication “is committed to this community ... and always will serve it by being an intensely local newspaper.” That’s not a knee-jerk reaction to what readers tell us they want. Extensive local coverage with help from readers who write has been a long-time habit for the Enterprise. Next time you run into one of those readerswrite columnists, give them a pat on the back for jobs well done.

COMMENTARY THE HIGH POINT ENTERPRISE SUNDAY, OCTOBER 4, 2009 www.hpe.com

Duke should ride the wind From The Charlotte Observer, Sept. 29 esearchers at UNC Chapel Hill have concluded what many North Carolinians have long surmised: Strong winds in the coastal region mean there’s a potential for large-scale wind energy generators – offshore and perhaps in part of eastern Pamlico Sound. That’s what researchers at Duke Energy think, too. The company is proposing a test project of one to three tall wind turbines in Pamlico Sound perhaps as early as next year. The turbines might rise 500 feet, cost up to $12 million each and generate enough electricity for 1,000 homes each. The experiment could provide valuable knowledge and expertise about the potential for a utility-grade generating facility to take advantage of coastal winds. That kind of practical experience would be more than helpful; it would be crucial to determining whether wind energy can be a significant contributor to the state’s and region’s energy production needs. The UNC study, commissioned by the N.C. General Assembly, found that most of the state’s waters, except those in Pamlico Sound west of Avon and Hatteras, are poorly suited to wind energy development, but “large areas offshore” are potentially well-suited for energy development. That’s encouraging. North Carolina has been slow to develop its wind energy potential, but with the commitment of Duke Energy the state may be able to become a leader in coastal and offshore wind resources. That would take concentrated effort, however, including more research on power transmission infrastructure in the Eastern region and the creation of state incentives to hasten wind development. Gov. Bev Perdue Perdue hasn’t endorsed the wind project. She has authorized a study of potential offshore energy resources, including exploratory drilling. That’s appropriate. Tar Heel residents revere the coastal area and most want the state to be careful about development that could permanently alter the view. One of the most controversial bills in the legislature this past session was a proposal to allow tall wind turbines in mountain areas. Many Western N.C. residents oppose the visual pollution they believe wind farms represent, and coastal residents likely will have similar concerns. The reality, however, is that wind turbines, especially if placed miles from the shoreline, would not so dramatically alter the landscape as mountain ridgetop wind farms. That’s one reason we believe the coastal area presents a far better opportunity for sustainable energy development. There are many hundreds of technical, environmental and aesthetic questions yet to be answered about coastal wind energy. But Duke Energy deserves credit for pushing forward its experiment in wind energy. The company’s willingness to pour significant resources into the program means state policy makers must carefully consider reciprocating with appropriate help — including getting environmental permits, securing leases of submerged land and, if research warrants it, strategic incentives for wind energy development.

Learn a lot, visit school cafeteria

G

randparents never get enough face time with their grandchildren, so my wife decided to surprise our two elementary school students recently by having lunch with them. The grandchildren were thrilled to see and show her off to friends proving again that spending time with children is more important than spending money on them. First impressions are important. The cafeteria was clean and attractive but the food on this day wasn’t very appealing. Judging by what was on the trays the children weren’t thrilled with the choices. If we want kids to eat nutritious food it must look as well as taste good. It was equally interesting watching the choices children brought from home. What our children eat can go a long way in promoting good health and fighting childhood obesity. During the two periods spent in the cafeteria, approximately 20 teachers escorted classes in to eat. Teachers definitely need

breaks from their students during the day, but it was surprising just how little interaction occurred between teachers and MY SPIN students during lunch hour. Tom One teacher Campbell started off ■■■ segregating her students into three lines: those who receive free lunch, those who brought their lunch and those who chose to eat in the cafeteria. Wonder if the free lunch kids felt a bit awkward? This same teacher spent most of the period criticizing her students in a loud voice, telling them she was taking points off for various actions they took. This teacher certainly wasn’t enjoying this lunch period and we bet her students weren’t either. That can’t be good for small digestive systems and doesn’t make lunch period

something to look forward to each day. Why do we accept teachers who apparently don’t like children? Like the axiom, I don’t care how much you know until I know how much you care. Kids are smart enough to know when teachers like them and they learn better in an environment where it is obvious the teacher cares. To prove this point, think back on the teachers who made a difference in your life. One young teacher stood out from the rest. One little boy, obviously upset, was crying in the lunchroom. This teacher quietly went over, spoke soothing words to the youngster and patted him on the shoulder. The boy immediately brightened up. As the period was ending my wife approached the teacher and told her she was impressed how the teacher had treated this young student, telling the teacher she was making a real difference in the lives of young people and was a credit to her profession. The teacher teared up and said,

“Nobody has ever said anything like that to me before.” Why not? Parents, grandparents, school administrators, all of us need to open our eyes to those teachers who are making a difference and tell them so frequently. Part of a role of the principal is to observe how teachers interact with students and give them feedback. Teaching is a difficult profession. There are plenty pointing out what is wrong, so when something is right we need to say so. A little loving kindness and encouragement might be the spark needed to turn a good teacher into a great one. You can learn a lot by visiting a school cafeteria. Try it soon and share what you observed with others.

Best for you It’s important to attend a college that’s the right match

T

here is so much for high school seniors and their parents to know about colleges that they not only need to get a lot of information but also need to make sure it is the right kind of information. A number of college guides have useful information but, unfortunately, the best-known and most pretentious of these guides -- “America’s Best Colleges”-- is grossly misleading. There is no such thing as a “best” college, any more than there is any such thing as a “best” wife or a “best” husband. Who would be best for a particular person depends on that person. Would we not consider it absurd if someone collected statistics on people and then used those statistics to rank individuals according to who would make the “best” wife OPINION or husband? Yet that is the Thomas approach “AmerSowell ica’s Best Colleg■■■ es” is based on. A college that would be best for a particular student could be a terrible place for that student’s brother or sister. One of them might find West Point a great experience, while the other would fit in perfectly at Reed College – and each might be miserable at the other institution. Choosing the college that is right for a particular person is not about the rankings of institutions. It is about matching a student with an institution that

can enable that person to flourish while there, and to graduate with an education that is a foundation for a fulfilling life in the years ahead. Among the things you need to know about a particular college is whether it has a real curriculum or just a smorgasbord of courses, so that it is possible to graduate knowing nothing about history, economics or science, for example. Some of the most prestigious colleges in the country are places where you can graduate completely ignorant of such fundamental subjects. What also matters is whether the intellectual atmosphere is one in which competing ideas are explored and debated, or one in which there is a prevailing orthodoxy of political correctness that a student can challenge only at the risk of being ridiculed by the professor, given a low grade or – in some places – suspended or expelled for violating a campus

speech code by giving an honest opinion about things where an orthodoxy is imposed, such as issues involving “race, class and gender.” In short, what is important is not choosing the “best” college, according to some statistics that conceal the arbitrary choices behind the objectivelooking numbers. What is important is choosing the right college for you. The best of the college guides reflects that difference in its title – “Choosing the Right College.” Its latest edition has just been published. Like people, it has put on some weight over the years and its seventh edition is now 1,140 pages long. Unlike some of us, however, its additional weight is muscle rather than fat. “Choosing the Right College” tells you whether there is or is not a curriculum at each of the colleges it covers and whether classes are taught by professors

or by graduate students. It also tells you whether the intellectual atmosphere is free or is hidebound with political correctness, and plagued by professors who think their job is to use the classroom as a place to sound off about their political ideology to a captive audience, even when the course is about chemistry or accounting. “Choosing the Right College” also presents information on such things as black separatist organizations at Lafayette College, for example. Whether you are for or against such things, you need to know about them, in order to choose what you think is right for you. Co-ed living arrangements are also discussed, including just how co-ed they are-- that is, whether males and females simply live in the same dormitory and/or share the same room and/or use the same bathrooms and showers. It also mentions some colleges where you don’t have to live co-ed at all, if you don’t want to. If you want to get more than one college guide, there is also “Barron’s Profiles of American Colleges” which has much more statistical detail and can be a useful supplment. But “Choosing the Right College” is a must – even if it is not carried in your local bookstore, and you have to order it on-line or from its publisher, ISI Books in Wilmington, Delaware.

Bill fails to solve health care woes BY HARRIETT WALKER

P

resident Obama’s speech on health care misses the point. The real issue with medical care is its high costs, which no politician cares to address. When we paid our own medical bills, we kept up with the costs, and expenses were reasonable. When the government stepped in with Medicare and Medicaid, which were considered “free,” we no longer noticed what was being charged. Medical expenses increased dramatically more than other cost of living expenses, such as food, clothing, transportation. Politicians have caused much of the problem by mandating that insurance cover things that people are not willing to pay for. One of the biggest issues is tort reform, which is unlikely to change, since most of Congress consists

of trial lawyers. Between frivolous lawsuits and malpractice insurance, many doctors have retired rather than pay the outrageous premiums. Others request expensive tests to protect themselves from lawsuits. Currently, Medicare and insurance companies dictate how our health care is practiced. The pencil pushers figure out how many patients a doctor should see in a day, and how long a hospital stay should last. Most members of Congress spends their time preparing for re-election, and rarely even read the bills they pay their staff to research and write. Democrat or Republican, neither are seriously looking for ways to actually fix the problem. The current boondoggle bill of 1,100 pages addresses none of

these problems. Obama’s push for health care reform will move us rapidly into Socialism. The Democrats intend to launch a “public options” with government subsidies that would soon drive private insurance out of business and become the “single-payer” plan they really want. They are considering insurance mandates to cover exotic benefits that individuals may not want to buy, such as invitro fertilization, hair transplants, rehab services, hearing aids, sex-change operations, abortions, mental health, and substance-abuse programs. They intend to offer all customers the same rate regardless of age, forcing young people to subsidize older patients. The plan will permanently put unaccountable bureaucrats (who have never treated a patient) in charge of if and when a

patient and his doctor can get the care they believe he should have. They can also decide when you are “expendable” and the expensive treatments you might want would be a waste of the taxpayer’s money. Senior citizens and cancer patients would be susceptible to these decisions. Look at any program the government is involved in, and see how all are more expensive due to the volume of employees (who have little incentive to cut costs) to administer the programs. The IRS has already been mentioned as that government department, with full access to our financial records so we don’t cheat. To quote Ronald Reagan, “Government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem.” HARRIETT WALKER resides in Sophia.

Tennessee governor, VW officials visit site of $1 billion plant CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (AP) – Tennessee Gov. Phil Bredesen will join top Volkswagen executives and officials today when they visit the construction site of the company’s assembly plant in Chattanooga. Jochem Heizmann, the German company’s board member in charge of worldwide production, along with Christian Wulff, governor of Lower Saxony, where VW is headquartered, are also expected in the city. Officials have said production at the $1 billion plant near Interstate 75 in southeastern Tennessee is scheduled to start in early 2011. Jay Baron, president of the Center for Automotive Research in Ann Arbor, Mich., told the Chattanooga Times Free Press that could be a good time because the

Meanwhile, VW posted sales up 1.5 percent over the same period in 2008. For the year, VW is down 8.9 percent, the company reported. While Toyota has temporarily put on hold its planned plant near Tupelo, Miss., VW is moving ahead with the production facility in Chattanooga. “The difference between Toyota in Mississippi and VW in Chattanooga is Toyota has other capacity in North America,� Dziczek said. “VW needs to build it to have it.� The plant is to have about 2,000 employees and is expected to create thousands of other related jobs.

Santa on a budget Tis the season where prices are key for toy sellers NEW YORK (AP) – Santa’s on a budget this year. Toy retailers and makers plan to make the best of it by offering more deals and cut-price versions of more expensive toys that they hope will spur parents to spend even if they’re scrimping elsewhere. Two influential lists of expected hot holiday toys show only one over $100. Parents are likely to keep shopping cautiously as they worry about job security, despite an uptick in home values and a rallying stock market.

“Price is more of a driving factor this year than it was before, and we will probably get our shopping done earlier so there are more choices,” said Decatur, Ga., resident Ingrid Allstrom Anderson, 32, whose husband’s engineering firm has been hurt by the long slowdown in construction. BMO Capital Markets analyst Gerrick Johnson predicts toy sales will fall 1 percent during the holiday quarter. They were $9.82 billion last year, according to data from re-

search firm NPD Group Inc. That’s a smaller drop than the 5 percent decline from a year ago, but still bad for a quarter when toy retailers make up to 40 percent of their annual sales. Toy makers can make up to half. “I think its going to be weak, but I don’t think its going to be the disaster it was last year,” Johnson said. “Parents have a better idea of what their budgets are at this point, so parents will scrimp elsewhere, not on kids.” One bright spot comes from an unlikely place: a small manufacturer’s toy hamster that retails for $8 to $10 and could be the first true “must-have” toy – that is, a toy that sells out, is

hard to find and appeals to both boys and girls – since Mattel’s Fisher Price TMX Elmo in 2006. Cepia Inc.’s Zhu Zhu Pet Hamsters squeak and moves around, and they’ve been impossible to keep on shelves, Toys R Us and Wal-Mart Stores Inc. say. Laura Phillips, Wal-Mart vice president of toys, says the furor over the hamsters is similar to the craze she saw for the furry robot Furby in 1998 and the electronic pet Tamagotchi in 1997. “As soon as we’re getting them in, they’re literally selling from boxes. It’s hard to get them on shelves,” Phillips said. Retailers certainly see the toy business as full of potential this holiday.

Wal-Mart is expanding a $10 toy promotion to 100 items, up from 10 last year. Toys R Us is opening 350 temporary stores in malls and inside Babies R Us stores in an effort to gain market share since the demise last year of KBToys, which was the largest mall-based toy seller. Sears has also jumped into the fray with toy aisles in 20 locations. “It’s the year of competing for the consumers dollar,” said Laurie Schacht, president of The Toy Insider, a trade publication that puts together a list of toys expected to be hot for the holidays. None in its top 20 are over $100 this year. Last year there were several, including a interactive plush golden retriever.

Transferring old skills to new jobs BY MILDRED L. CULP WORKWISE FEATURES

Today’s groaning companies and industries are causing so much frustration among job seekers that you may have to scrap conventional thinking about background to prepare for something new. Duncan Mathison of San Diego’s Duncan Mathison & Associates bases this statement on 19 years of experience in the field of career transition: “It’s common to look at your own industry or professional marketplace... and realize there are not a lot of options.” Searching for something new can lead to a different job in either the same or a new industry. It can also result in a new job in a new industry. The last is a double whammy, difficult to accomplish, but possible. The main challenge you face is daunting: identifying skills you’ve used, packaging them in the language of the new industry and persuading an employer to hire you rather than someone with a more traditional background.

TRANSFERABLE SKILLS Although many people bandy about the term “transferable skills,” you might be confused about what they are. Eileen Sharaga of New York City reports that the concept behind this phrase came from Howard Fiegler and Richard Bolles in the late 80s to refer to skills that you could take into a new

Sharaga has adapted the concept to include these transferable skills, all with multiple applications: • communication skills; • research skills; • creative skills; • organizing skills; • analytical skills; • problem-solving skills; and • synthesizing skills. “They are apt to have shown up early in life and are source of our success,” she says. “These

help you make a radical transition or move your career to the left or right.” Deborah Bailey, president of DBC Communications L.L.C., in Piscataway, N.J., mentions that you’re not just transferring skills. You’re also transferring “aptitude, which can be applied to something else.”

uses different language from yours, obscuring the relevance of your background, even when you list transferable skills. When writing or speaking, you must use the language the new field uses or you’ll be perceived to be overwhelmingly and unchangingly an outsider. Of course, even as you’re couching results in your previous experience in the new lanGAPS Mathison sees an incredibly guage, you still have to know important “perception gap,” how to sell your difference from which occurs when a new field competitors who’ve already

worked in the industry or occupation. Take heart, Bailey suggests, because “people with that same skill set may not have the experience or results or culture of the company that could be hiring you.” Mathison would agree, pointing out that if they “hire the same ol’ same ol’, they’ll not get your energy and outside perspective.” He further advocates doing research about a job. “That’s basic,” he remarks. “The other level makes the difference – fit, motivation, a different perspective or new way of solving old problems.” He advises asking employers what differentiates their top 10 percent of employees in terms of “quality, skills and competencies” versus the acceptable or mediocre ones. He adds another important step – getting the person to tell you what critical issues the industry or profession is facing. Knowing where people are struggling will give you many clues to where you might contribute. Finally, as BJ Gallagher writes in “It’s Never Too Late To Be What You Might Have Been,” listening rather than tearing around in your job search will give you clues about where you should be going. Then, she writes, “The best jobs are those that are a little too big for you. They force you to stretch and grow.” DR. MILDRED L. CULP, Workwise Features, is an award-winning journalist.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL EAST CAROLINA 21 MARSHALL 17 APPALACHIAN ST. 30 THE CITADEL (OT) 27 HOWARD 7 WIN-SALEM STATE 3

BY BRIANA GORMAN ENTERPRISE DURHAM BUREAU

CHAPEL HILL – As the clock wound down at the end of Virginia’s 16-3 victory over North Carolina on Saturday, the Kenan Stadium crowd let loose its feelings about the Tar Heels’ performance. And UNC quarterback T.J. Yates had no argument with their assessment. “We deserve to get boos,” Yates said. For the second consecutive game, the junior said his team failed to execute offensively. A week after the Tar Heels put up 154 yards of offense in a loss to Georgia Tech, they mustered just 174 yards against Virginia. It was the Cavaliers’ first win of the season and their fourth consecutive victory over UNC (3-2, 0-2). It was also the fewest points during the Butch Davis era and the first time one of his UNC teams hasn’t scored a touchdown. “We’ve got to improve, and that’s my responsibility,” Davis said. Even though the offense struggled to move the ball, the Tar Heels’ defense kept the game within reach until the fourth quarter. Virginia (1-3, 1-0) led 9-3 when UNC got the ball back with 10:14 to play. But on third down, Yates was picked off by Chase Minnifield, whose diving interception gave Virginia the ball on UNC’s 42. Seven plays later, Mikell Simpson, who finished with 100 yards rushing on 20 carries, ran 8 yards into the end zone to give the Cavs a two-score advantage. The Heels finished with nine first downs compared to Virginia’s 16 and rushed for 39 yards.

Wake Forest’s Josh Adams (27) is congratulated by teammates after gaining a first down as N.C. State’s Alan-Michael Cash (foreground) bows his head late in the second half of the Demon Deacons’ 30-24 win in Winston-Salem on Saturday.

Deacs outlast Pack BY GREER SMITH ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER

WINSTON-SALEM – Riley Skinner stood smiling, a large inflated plastic bandage protecting an elbow that threw 45 passes. Skinner took his lumps at the hands of the N.C. State defense, getting sacked six times and getting picked off twice – the first one putting the Deacons in a 7-0 early hole. The mistakes prodded Skinner to try to make amends and he certainly did, outdueling highly touted Wolfpack quarterback Russell Wilson in an aerial battle as Wake held on for a 30-24 victory at BB&T Field. “You want to make up for the mistakes,” Skinner said. “The defense was playing their hearts out. Our offensive line was protecting. The receivers were catching. When you are the reason for the mistakes, you want to do your part.” Skinner did his part by completing 31 tosses for 361 yards, setting a personal record for a third straight game, and three touchdowns. The last was a thread-the-needle 25-yarder to Chris Givens that gave Wake

its last 10-point lead at 27-17 with 10:05 to play. But after Wilson answered with a drive that ended with a 5-yard scoring reception by former Ragsdale standout Toney Baker, and Wake settled for a field goal after a procedure penalty on third down at the State 1, State still had a chance to pull out a victory with a touchdown when it got the ball back with 4:44 left. The chance died on a first-down play from the Wake 29 when Wilson overthrew Donald Bowens in the end zone and was picked by freshman cornerback Kenny Okoro, making his first start in the wake of coach Jim Grobe’s personnel changes during the week. “(Wilson) threw it outside instead of inside to the receiver,” State coach Tom O’Brien said. “He throws it inside, it might be a whole different ending.” Okoro felt a certain sense of satisfaction after the Wolfpack tried to take advantage of his inexperience, particularly on its opening scoring drive. “The receiver ran a great route and I saw the ball overthrown,” Okoro said. “I felt like they were picking

on me the whole game. I was getting really mad. When I got my chance, I was going to make a play.” Wake, however, wasn’t assured of the victory until Josh Adams took a Skinner pass, slipped a couple of tackles and made a first down at the Deacon 34 with just more than a minute to go. Wake (3-2, 1-1 ACC) moved almost exclusively through the air by design and gained just 30 yards on the ground as its rushing game continued to struggle. “Our two-minute offense has been working well the whole year,” Skinner said. “Before, we went to it when we got down 14. This time, the coaches decided to use it from the start.” Wilson went 20-for-43 for 275 yards, tossed two touchdowns and ran for another. But he also threw two interceptions, the first one ending his record streak of attempts without an interception at 379. Baker also lost a fumble for State( 3-2, 0-1). “We just continue to self-destruct,” O’Brien said. “We have to change that with coaching, but some of the guys have to grow up.” gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3519

Hokies hold off pesky Blue Devils BY BRYAN STRICKLAND ENTERPRISE DURHAM BUREAU

DURHAM – Many of the Virginia Tech fans who made themselves at home Saturday at Wallace Wade Stadium brought their seat cushions, but few if any of them felt a need to pack their pins and needles. Yet as the clock ticked toward

the final four minutes, the Duke Blue Devils still were thinking about doing the unthinkable. Finally, when Virginia Tech quarterback Tyrod Taylor completed a 37-yard pass on third and 11 – the last of many third-down daggers that Taylor delivered – the No. 6 Hokies felt as if they were sitting pretty on their way to a 34-26 victory.

“It’s pretty amazing, for our guys to play as inspired as they did for 60 minutes and to be able to do that despite the opposing team in your home stadium having more fans than you’ve got,” Duke coach David Cutcliffe said. “That was two good football teams. One of them is 4-1 and one is 2-3, but it was two good football teams.” The Blue Devils led early, then

trailed by a touchdown or less most of the day. Yet the hookup between Taylor and Danny Coale – on a day when Taylor threw for 327 yards on 17-of-22 passing – put Virginia Tech in position for running back Josh Oglesby to score his second touchdown of the fourth quarter for a 34-19 lead with 2:28 left.

HIT AND RUN

N.C. A&T NCCU (2 OT)

.C. State running back Toney Baker enjoyed being less than 25 miles from his high school haunts at Ragsdale. That and a 5-yard touchdown catch were a couple of the things he enjoyed Saturday. He left disappointed after the Wolfpack failed to rally and departed Winston-Salem on the short end of a 30-24 loss to Wake Forest. On the way, Baker and the rest of the Wolfpack running attack failed to get untracked, gaining just 102 yards. Baker lost a fumble that was one of three State turnovers – the other two pass interceptions thrown by Russell Wilson. The Wolfpack committed silly penalties, including an

unsportsmanlike conduct foul that helped sustain a drive that led to a Deacon field goal at the end of the first half. State again had trouble tackling, even when it mattered most when it need to keep Wake from getting a first down at the end of the game. “We made too many turnovers and way too many mistakes on both sides of the ball,” Baker said. “It’s a disappointing loss. We’ve got to learn from it.” Baker, a senior, knows that he must play a key role in helping State round into shape. “I need to lead by example,” Baker said. “I need to show the younger guys that we need to work. I need to come out at practice and

work hard. We’ve got to have some good vocal leaders. We’ve got to grind it out and get to work.” Baker is grinding it out after missing two years because of a knee injury. He believes that he is running better than before he was hurt. “I’m running fantastic,” Baker said. “I’m running smarter and probably faster. I feel stronger than I did before. I’ve just got to work during the week.” He knows that is needed after having his homecoming game ruined.

The Toronto Blue Jays fired general manager J.P. Ricciardi on Saturday, ending an eight-year tenure marked by an inability to get past the Yankees and Red Sox and into the playoffs. Ricciardi had one year left on his contract. The Blue Jays (75-85) are finishing off a mediocre season in Baltimore.

Andrews escapes BY DANIEL KENNEDY SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE

LEXINGTON – Mental mistakes rarely bring about victory on the gridiron. Both Lexington and T. Wingate Andrews committed several costly mistakes Friday, and only one team was granted a reprieve. The Raiders won 28-21 in an exciting overtime affair despite sloppy play in both halves. The Yellow Jackets racked up 166 yards of total offense in the first half, but largely failed to capitalize on their opportunities due to penalties that stalled drives and left Lexington tied 7-7 at halftime. The scene unfolded quite differently in the second half, as rushing lanes were plentiful. Heading the attack for the Jackets were signalcaller Al Challenger and tailback Duke Horton. Challenger finished with 16 carries for 92 yards, while Horton did most of the heavy lifting in the fourth quarter as he rolled to 176 yards on 27 carries. For Andrews, the offense took to the air in a contest marked by big plays, contrast of styles and huge momentum shifts. No tandem proved more effective than QB Marquez Swinton – who went 12-for-20 with 243 passing yards – and favorite target Mark Johnson. Johnson torched the defense for seven catches and 204 yards, including the go-ahead 10-yard reception in OT for his second score of the game. The second-half scoring outburst was nearly for naught, however, when Andrews’ defense seemingly ran out of gas at the end of the fourth quarter. Lexington’s final drive of regulation was a model of efficiency until reaching the red zone. At that point, the Yellow Jackets self-destructed and let the Raiders off the hook in what ultimately would be the deciding factor in the game. Facing a first-and-goal situation from the 10 with under a minute to play, Lexington was unable to punch it in from the short distance. Within minutes, the exciting conclusion left both Andrews and Lexington at 3-3 for the season. The Red Raiders open play in the PAC 6 2A Conference this week at Simeon Stadium against winless Atkins.

Cwbys: What’s missing? The O HIGH POINT – Scott Schwarzer didn’t mince words. “We were abysmal on offense. We are abysmal.” Southwest Guilford enjoyed one shining moment during Friday night’s Piedmont Triad 4A opener. On the first overtime possession, Tanner Butler banged home a 27yard field goal for a 3-0 lead – the first Cowboy points in eight quarters. The sun set on the Cowboys’ victory hopes, though, when Northwest Guilford scored a touchdown on its third play in overtime. Southwest’s defensive players were crushed to lose 6-3 despite playing so well. Northwest’s wing-T offense managed 82 yards rushing on 42 carries

(17:52). Jonathan Perdomo was 70th in 18:00.8, Abdul Butt 89th in 18:19.5, Josh Phillips 109th in 18:36.1 and Jose Manuel Sanchez Rosales 133rd in 18:56.2. Joel Shuford led SWG in 17:45.6, good for 54th. Other Cowboys were Bryan Ingram (144th, 19:09.3), Joel Martinez (186th, 20:18.5), Sebastian Ball (196th, 20:37.2) and Michael Nichols (197th, 20:38.3). The Championship Girls included 25 teams and 180 runners. Lee-Davis High of Mechanicsville, Va., tallied 58 points to win. Bishop took 12th with 294 points, while Southwest was 14th with 407. Ravenscroft’s Wesley Frazier had a time of 17:42.9 to win by more than a minute. Meredith Bennett paced the Villains in 21st place in 20:28.4. Ally Craven was 71st in 22:18, followed by Katie Pellitteri (73rd, 22:24.6), Michaela Dimoff (80th, 22:40.5) and Rose O’Shea (85th, 22:48.2). The Cowgirls got an impressive 14th-place

time of 19:59.4 from Tori Shelton, while Adrianna Sarrimanolis was 66th in 22:08.2. Other Cowgirls were Caitlin Spinks (105th, 23:17.0), Amy Zhan (129th, 23:56.1) and Kristen Edwards (130th, 23:56.8).

Because in addition to limiting the Vikings’ attack, opportunistic Southwest even stole the ball back for its offense. Jason Nazal ended that fourth-quarter drive by forcing a fumble that he pounced on at the 12. Northwest’s next drive ended with Xavier Lewis grabbing a fumble 36 yards from the end zone. Each turnover, however, led to punts. Southwest kicked it away eight times in all and gained just eight first downs. Airyn Willis had four runs between 10 and 20 yards, but needed 24 carries to finish with a team-high 86 yards. Thanks to sacks, Southwest actual-

ly had just 87 yards as a team despite Willis’ 86. The passing game netted 91 yards on a 7-for-23 night, and 36 of those yards came on a trick play and lucky bounce just before halftime. The sputtering offense has led to a three-game skid after Southwest’s promising 3-0 start, and the rest of the PTC schedule appears ominous for an offense seeking a spark. Friday’s game against unbeaten Ragsdale – already with a pair of PTC shutouts – may worry Cowboys fans, but Schwarzer said his team will continue to work out the kinks. “We’ve got five games left and we can go in there and compete and win them all,” the coach said. “I believe that and I think anybody’s who’s watched us play knows that.” shanf@hpe.com | 888-3526

Vickers faces diff icult Chase BY GREER SMITH ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER

Brian Vickers is a little disappointed with his performances in the first two races in the Chase for the Championship. Vickers wanted to finish in the top 10 in each event trying to get off to a good start in his first time in the Chase. Instead, he settled for 11th in the Chase opener at New Hampshire and faded to 18th by the time the checkered flag waved last week at Dover. The combination puts the Thomasville native a distant 10th in points, 151 behind leader Mark Martin, with eight races remaining. “We came back from some problems at New Hampshire, so I think we had an OK finish,� Vickers said. “We lost a few spots at Dover late and missed our mark. We’re a little behind, but we’ve got a shot at it. We’ve got some of our best tracks coming up and we’re looking forward to the end of the season.� Some of his best tracks are the 1.5-mile layouts such as Charlotte and Homestead-Miami Speedway. But not necessarily at Kan-

sas Speedway, today’s stop. In four prior starts there, Vickers has one top-10 finish. And he failed to qualify there two years ago in his first season with Red Bull Racing. Vickers continues to boast that making the Chase and winning a race this season are proof of just how just how much his team has improved. “We’ve learned a lot about ourselves, I guess,� Vickers said. “We’ve learned that we’re capable of doing it. We’re capable of sitting on poles and winning races and being in the Chase. “Looking back on it, we had a 10-race streak where we collected more points than anybody. I think we learned that we can win the championship. That doesn’t mean we will, but we’re capable of it. At the end of the day, it’s really no more complicated than the team that puts the best 10 races together in a row wins the Chase. I know we’re capable of doing that. We haven’t had the best start to it – that doesn’t mean that we can’t finish off and still win it.� The hot 10-race streak in which Vickers scored more points than

anyone got him into the Chase. As others have found out, Vickers learned that having to scramble to get into the Chase put him behind those who were assured of getting in. “We’re still learning a lot about the Chase itself,� Vickers said. “Once you’re in it (you learn) how you have to attack it. For us, we exhausted a lot of resources and a lot of time focusing on getting into the Chase, where as some of the other teams were able to focus more on the Chase itself and on the stuff they were developing at the shop.� Vickers believes his team hasn’t been intimidated by being in the Chase, and still is approaching races as it did in the regular season. “As far as the pressure in the Chase, honestly I don’t feel that much different than I did the other races,� Vickers said. “I approach every weekend as we have to do our best. Every weekend our goal is to win the race and collect as many points as possible and I guess in AP FILE a lot of ways that hasn’t changed Brian Vickers knows he has his work cut out for him as he much.� enters today’s Cup race at Kansas Speedway. Vickers is

currently 10th in the Chase, 151 points behind leader Mark Martin, as the circuit hits the third of 10 Chase races.

Logano burns Busch again KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP) – That horrific crash certainly didn’t slow Joey Logano down. Logano passed points leader Kyle Busch with three laps left Saturday at Kansas Speedway, pulling out his fourth Nationwide victory just a week after the crash. Logano flipped his car seven times at Dover last week, but showed no signs of fear in Kansas, overcoming a bobble with six laps left before passing Busch for the victory. Busch led 173 of the 200

laps on the 1.5-mile oval and has led 2,226 laps this season, breaking the season series record of 2,127 set by Sam Ard in 1984. But Busch didn’t have enough to hold off Logano, who came back to beat him in the final 10 laps for the fourth time this season. Busch has finished second in all four of Logano’s wins this season. Brad Keselowski finished third. Busch appeared to have the strongest car all day, taking the lead from pole sitter Parker Kligerman at the start/finish line on

Lap 9 and losing it only twice during cautions in the first 196 laps. Logano, who started seventh, stayed on Busch’s bumper most of the day and appeared to lose his best chance to pass coming out of a caution in the closing laps. Trying to pass Busch on the inside, Logano nearly lost control of his car and had to back off, dropping in behind Busch. The 19-yearold quickly made up the lost ground and got Busch two laps later, racing past him on the inside.

KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP) – George Gillett leaned into a microphone, prepared to answer any questions that might end the swirling speculation surrounding Richard Petty Motorsports. Just as Gillett began to speak, his cell phone chirped with the tune of the Liverpool soccer club’s adopted theme song. He stopped “You’ll Never Walk Alone,� mid-ring, quickly told the caller he’d get back to him, and returned to his audience. Gillett, owner of Richard Petty Motorsports and Liverpool, is a very busy man these days. He’s working deals with all of his interests, including an agreement to sell the NHL’s Montreal Canadiens, while also trying to keep Kasey Kahne on track for a NASCAR championship. Kahne heads into today’s race at Kansas Speedway last in the 12-driver Chase for the championship standings, 189 points behind leader Mark Martin. His bid for a first title comes amid an appearance of chaos at RPM, and Kahne himself admitted just two weeks ago that he wasn’t sure what is going on with the organization or who is in charge. Gillett dismissed the notion Saturday this his star driver is in the dark about the wholesale changes confronting the race team. “He is a very dear young man,� Gillett said in a rare at-track sitdown with reporters. “He is not used to media. He

doesn’t particularly like the process, and I think he believed that he was trying to give an answer that would hopefully shut the conversation off. “Kasey has been fully aware of and apprised of the conversations going on.â€? The fact is, there are several conversations surrounding the race team. Gillett just doesn’t have many answers: •A planned merger with Yates Racing is still moving forward, and Gillett said RPM would be in Fords in 2010. “We’re going now from letter of intent to a formal contract,â€? he said. •The team will be at least three drivers, but Gillett would not reveal the lineup. “We’re very early in the process,â€? he said. “I’m trying to answer the general questions here today, I don’t have the specifics.â€? •It’s not yet been determined where the race shop will be located. Gillett said the team has looked at leasing different buildings, or moving into Yates’ current facility. Although many believe the Yates shop is too small for a big organization, Gillett said it’s doable if parts of the operation are still handled in RPM’s current building. •Executive vice president Robbie Loomis will likely still handle the dayto-day operations after the merger, but co-owner Richard Petty will be at the top of the ladder. “This man will always be the leader,â€? Gillett said.

Brawn GP pair penalized five grid places at Japan GP SUZUKA, Japan (AP) – Formula One championship contenders Jenson Button and Rubens Barrichello were among five drivers penalized five starting places in a chaotic qualifying session for the Japanese Grand Prix on Saturday. The Brawn GP pair, Renault’s Fernando Alonso and Force India’s Adrian Sutil failed to slow when yellow flags were waved during the second round of qualifying. Toro Rosso’s Sebastian Buemi,

whose accident brought out the flags, also drops back five spots. Button and Barrichello, who had qualified in seventh and fifth places respectively, will now be at a major disadvantage to Red Bull’s Sebastian Vettel, who will start from the pole position and still retains slim championship hopes. Heikki Kovalainen of McLaren will also drop back five spots for changing his gearbox, while there was doubt over

whether Timo Glock of Toyota would be able to take his place in today’s race after a heavy crash. The situation was so confusing that the FIA will wait until today to announce a complete starting grid. The penalties added a glimmer of hope to Vettel’s championship bid. Button leads Barrichello by 15 points. Vettel is another 10 points back in third, with two more races left after the Japan GP.

East Carolina beats Marshall HUNTINGTON, W.Va. (AP) – Patrick Pinkney scored on a 30-yard run and East Carolina’s defense forced two turnovers in the fourth quarter to beat Marshall 21-17 on Saturday.

Favre versus Cheeseheads: Unimaginable but true BY BARRY WILNER AP FOOTBALL WRITER

Many players have worn No. 4 for the Vikings, most of them kickers. Brett Favre most decidedly is not a kicker. His presence in purple galls nearly everyone in Packers Nation, and the nausea level among Cheeseheads could be off the charts Monday night if Favre leads his latest team past the one he quarterbacked so successfully for so long – a true kick in the rear. Even worse for Packers backers is that a Minnesota win would put the Vikings at 4-0 and Green Bay at 2-2. With Chicago also in the mix in the suddenly potent NFC North, the Packers could be chasing two archrivals the rest of the season. The only way this matchup could grab more headlines is if it took place at Lambeau Field. That won’t be until Nov. 1. Still, there’s plenty of intrigue for a game that even ESPN can’t overhype. “This is probably the most anticipated game I think, for a regular-season game, that I’ve ever been a part of,” Vikings linebacker Ben Leber said. Favre is the reason, of course. This is his chance to get back at an organization he epitomized for 16 seasons, but which he felt forced him to make a retirement decision before he was ready last year. That led to his whole jitterbug in and out of retirement. “It doesn’t even cross my mind,” Favre said. “I’m the quarterback here, I think this team has accepted me, I feel good about where I am. I feel very good about what I did in Green Bay those 16 years. There is no afterthought really.” There remain plenty of afterthoughts among Cheeseheads. Today, it’s Baltimore at New England, the New York Jets at New Orleans, San Diego at Pittsburgh, Dallas at Denver, the New York Giants at Kansas City, Seattle at Indianapolis, Detroit at Chicago, St. Louis at San Francisco, Tennessee at Jacksonville, Buffalo at Miami, Cincinnati at Cleveland, Oakland at Houston, and Tampa Bay at Washington. Off this week are Atlanta, Arizona, Carolina and Philadelphia.

home games at the new stadium, so hitting the road might be a good idea.

N.Y. GIANTS (3-0) AT KANSAS CITY (0-3) Even with a battered roster that had 10 players on the injured report, including such key starters as DE Justin Tuck and RT Kareem McKenzie, the Giants appear far too classy for the Chiefs. New York’s young receivers, Steve Smith and Mario Manningham, have responded to their increased roles. The Chiefs, seeking Todd Haley’s first win as a head coach, rank 30th in offense. New York knows how to get to the quarterback, so this could be painful for QB Matt Cassel.

SEATTLE (1-2) AT INDIANAPOLIS (3-0) Even with a healthy Matt Hasselbeck at quarterback, it’s difficult to see the injury-plagued Seahawks handling the inspired Colts. Hasselbeck figures to sit with a broken rib, and he’ll watch the true master at work. Peyton Manning surely is a top contender for an unprecedented fourth MVP award, and he’s winning with several raw receivers and a so-so defense. Indy has won 12 straight regular-season games, dating back to the 2008 season, longest string in the NFL.

DETROIT (1-2) AT CHICAGO (2-1) OK, the Lions have their win. Jim Schwartz already has improved them. Time to build on success, as modest as it might be. Against Chicago, which has found its passing game but remains mediocre while running the ball, Detroit needs to get more pressure on the quarterback. If not, Jay Cutler will continue his rise after a rough start.

ST. LOUIS (0-3) AT SAN FRANCISCO (2-1) Without RB Frank Gore, the Niners nearly won at Minnesota, falling in the final seconds after going to the prevent defense. Look for coach Mike Singletary to make sure San Francisco stays aggressive all day against a weak offense that has managed 24 points, worse than even Cleveland. The Rams also have health concerns about their quarterback, Marc Bulger (right rotator cuff).

BALTIMORE (3-0) AT NEW ENGLAND (2-1) A shocking early season fact is the Ravens leading the AFC and ranking second overall in offense. They’re gaining 430 yards a game, and because they allow a mere 282, they’re unbeaten. To remain spotless, Baltimore will need its three-headed monster at running back (Ray Rice, Willis McGahee, Le’Ron McClain) to dominate time of possession, allowing the rapidly maturing Joe Flacco time to pick out receivers when he must throw. Flacco has won 14 of his first 19 starts, just as Tom Brady did back in 2001. That season, the Patriots won their first Super Bowl. They haven’t looked particularly sharp thus far, although their win over Atlanta last Sunday was the Pats’ most impressive performance. Brady has been feeling defensive heat most of the season, and few teams can bring it like Baltimore.

N.Y. JETS (3-0) AT NEW ORLEANS (3-0) With 75 percent of the teams that started a season 3-0 making the playoffs since 1990, there’s a good chance these two resurgent clubs will be busy in January. This is a juicy October matchup, with a superb attacking defense that has allowed just 33 points facing the most prolific offense in the league with 120 points. Not since Dallas in 1968 (132) has anyone scored so much so early. Jets coach Rex Ryan might get even more aggressive trying to pressure Drew Brees, whose record-setting passing pace slowed a bit at Buffalo. Watch the battle between outstanding cornerback Darrelle Revis and Saints star receiver Marques Colston, although Revis is battling hamstring issues.

TENNESSEE (0-3) AT JACKSONVILLE (1-2) That 0-3 sure looks weird next to Tennessee, which won its first 10 games a year ago and had the league’s best record, 13-3. A loss to the Jaguars will just about kill any division title hopes for the Titans, who have faltered late in games on both sides of the ball. Jacksonville got an uplifting victory at Houston last week. It won’t inspire enough ticket sales to get anything close to a sellout.

DALLAS (2-1) AT DENVER (3-0) Denver has gone from a sieve on offense to the stingiest of teams, yielding a mere 16 points, easily the least in the league. That includes no TDs allowed in the last two weeks. But the Broncos have played the Bengals, Browns and Raiders, hardly a murderer’s row. Still, they could get a big break against Dallas, which is hobbled at running back and might be down to Tashard Choice as its choice to tote the ball. The Cowboys generally struggled in their first two

Offseason gambling backfires for winless struggling Panthers CHARLOTTE (AP) – It started with Julius Peppers, continued with Jake Delhomme and ended with a bold draftday deal. The normally conservative Carolina Panthers spent the offseason gambling. They bet that forcing an unhappy Julius Peppers to stay – with an NFL-high $16.7 million salary – wouldn’t make him a disgruntled nonfactor. The scenario also meant the Panthers would have to remain healthy, because Peppers would eat up about 14 percent of the salary cap and limit depth in other areas. They risked that Jake Delhomme’s abysmal playoff performance was an aberration and gave him a lucrative extension and no competition in training camp. Finally, they decided undersized, overlooked defensive end Everette Brown was so good they sent next year’s first-round pick to San Francisco to grab him in the second round of the draft. Now after one sack from Peppers, seven interceptions from Delhomme and Brown’s bum ankle, the injuryravaged Panthers (0-3) are facing a bleak season where the corresponding high draft pick will go to the 49ers. Talk about a bad hand. With their season spiraling out of

control, the Panthers scattered for their bye weekend holding out hope there’s still time to get Peppers in gear, end Delhomme’s turnover parade and shore up a leaky run defense. “When you turn it over 12 times in three games, an average of four a game, I don’t care who you’re playing, you aren’t winning, especially (against) good teams,” coach John Fox said. “That’s something I think we can get cleaned up. “Defensively, as far as our fits in run and pass, I definitely think we can get fixed.” It might be too late. Only three teams since the current playoff format was adopted in 1990 have made the playoffs after starting 0-3. And the Panthers have numerous problems eight months after they won the NFC South. “When we first looked at the schedule and saw the bye week was Week 4, we were saying that was early and we may be just getting on a role,” Brown said. “But actually it’s come at a good time for us to regroup and get ready for the 13 weeks.” Brown hopes the time off will allow him to return quickly from a high ankle sprain that kept him out of Monday’s loss to Dallas. Brown so far hasn’t become the consistent pass-rushing specialist the Panthers had hoped. He’s yet to record a sack.

BUFFALO (1-2) AT MIAMI (0-3) That 0-3 doesn’t look quite so strange next to Miami, but the Dolphins are in the same sinking boat as the Titans; a loss and their chances for defending a division crown become just about nil. Miami has gone from Chad Pennington, out for the season with yet another shoulder injury, to Chad Henne at quarterback – the 14th QB to start since Dan Marino retired after the 1999 season. The focal point of the offense will remain the running game, with perhaps more emphasis on the wildcat. If Terrell Owens isn’t the focal point of Buffalo’s offense after getting blanked last week, just watch for all those TV cameras and microphones by his locker afterward.

Plan to dine out at a participating restaurant on Tuesday, October 6th, 2009 and a portion of the proceeds will go to support the United Way of Greater High Point and its 29 partner agencies.

CINCINNATI (2-1) AT CLEVELAND (0-3) Things have gotten so negative around the Browns that Clevelanders are turning to LeBron and the Cavs for comfort. And they don’t even get started until the end of the month. Cincinnati is off to a nice start, including a rare home win over the Steelers. The Bengals are minus-2 in turnover differential, yet that’s way better than the Browns’ minus-7, worst in the AFC.

SAN DIEGO (2-1) AT PITTSBURGH (1-2) The Steelers never have lost a regularseason home matchup with the Chargers, and beat them twice last year at Heinz Field on the way to the championship. But Pittsburgh’s defense has folded late in its last two games, both losses. The Chargers hope to get back running back LaDainian Tomlinson (ankle), who has missed the last two games.

AP

Running back DeAngelo Williams (34) and his Carolina Panther teammates have not shown the right stuff en route to an 0-3 start to the season.

OAKLAND (1-2) AT HOUSTON (1-2) The Texans never have had a winning record in their eight-plus seasons of existence. The Raiders prevented it in 2008 with a late-season upset. No team is more unpredictable than the Texans, who are 0-2 at home, yet won at Tennessee. DL Richard Seymour has had a positive impact in Oakland, yet the Raiders are among the league’s tailenders, indicating how many holes they still must fill.

TAMPA BAY (0-3) AT WASHINGTON (1-2) Since 1990, 51 teams with losing records through three weeks made the playoffs. It’s hard to believe either of these clubs will get into that category. The outrage in Washington after falling to the Lions won’t be smoothed with a win over the woeful Bucs. But if the Redskins lose to a team that can’t move the ball, can’t stop anyone and is making a quarterback change, the roar will shake every building on the National Mall.

Slowing Larry down T

he sacrifices I make in the quest for outdoor journalistic excellence amaze me. This week, I needed some doves to cook on a web segment with Austin Caviness. I drove down to Beaver Pond to see if I could get a few and spent an hour or so risking life and skull in the effort. I’d noticed a few days earlier, the birds were hanging out in a few trees growing in a thicket behind the pheasant tower field and had picked up a few there then. As I approached the thicket, I saw dozens of birds flying out of a walnut tree that sat just along the edge and decided that Larry and I would stake the tree out as our shooting zone. Apparently, the doves were decoying to the tree since the walnuts in the otherwise bare tree looked like doves. I realized after choosing my spot that I was in dire danger since walnuts were dropping off the tree on a regular basis but in the interest of journalism I stayed. I actually did lose blood while stomping down the blackberry briars that claimed the spot before me. The spot was worth shedding a little blood over, though, because every eight or 10 minutes a single dove would approach the tree and, as soon as I would shoot, the sky would be full of them. I made the mistake of reloading my Fox 16 on the first one or two, but learned to just wait for the flurry that always seemed to follow a bird approaching my tree. On the birds Larry marked, he did a great job, holding until I released him and making quick work of the retrieve even in thick cover. On the birds he saw, he never gave up until the bird was back at my shooting stool. Since the cover we were hunting in was so thick, it was impossible for him to mark all the birds I shot. When I sent him on these blind retrieves, he rushed out and covered the area, but at a pace much too fast to effectively find a dead bird. It was as if he was going through the motions without really looking for the bird. He was outrunning his ability to smell the dead bird. A similar problem arises when we simulate a field hunt in a training session. He’s learned how to quarter across a field in a hunting situation as a result of our time in the field but his youth and enthusiasm create a problem. When working the field, he’s excited and runs too fast, again outrunning his ability to pick up bird scent. He also does this when I send him after a bird he hasn’t marked. In training a dog, the challenge is to come up with workable solutions to training problems as they arise. This ability and the presence of perseverance are the factors that insure a dog will be trained. I often bounce my problems off other dog people who see dogs the same way I do. Sometimes the answer jus comes to me, but problems like this require careful thought. Any form of punishment will not do. He is currently doing what I want him to do in looking for the bird and ranging the field. The problem is in the speed he’s doing it. Anything he construes as punishment will set back the training we’ve accomplished, confuse him, and cause more problems. The problem is that I can’t reason with him verbally. I have to put him in a position to learn for himself. Therein lies the art in training a dog.

There are a couple of things I’m planning to do to correct this. First, I’ll wear him down with lots of exercise before putting him in a situation to look for birds. By SPORTS wearing him down, he’ll be slower and less Dick likely to stumble over Jones birds by outrunning his ■■■ nose. Hopefully, once he figures out that going slower is more productive, he’ll fix the problem himself. Another tactic will be to put a check cord on him and work him up to the birds slowly. Putting the check cord on is going to make him think something is going on and should make him a little more careful. The hard part of this is giving him the opportunity to learn that his nose is what produces results and that he can outrun it. Of course, this is my second choice since I don’t want to have to deal with a check cord all the time. When training dogs you have to remember their ability to communicate is more than just not being able to understand words. They deal with a completely different set of motives than you and may try to please you while doing something you really don’t want. Once again, put the dog in a situation to learn for himself. When Ernie, my old Lab, went on his first game preserve hunt, he was probably 6 years old. He’d hunted for wild birds as well as woodcock and snipe at that time but he’d never encountered a pen raised bird. It was a wet day, not good for pen raised birds, and I didn’t expect what happened. He ranged over the field like an old pro, began to look “birdy,” and poked his head into a clump of brush. He came out with a live quail in his mouth and brought it straight to me. He looked so proud, as if to say, “Look, I saved you a shell.” He wound up bringing me about a third of the birds without me “wasting” a shell. I was totally unprepared for what happened and more than a little frustrated. I did have the presence of mind to not scold or punish him for it because there’s no way he would have understood the punishment. On our next trip for pen raised birds, I had my whistle ready and blew a “sit” blast when he looked like he’d found birds. This allowed me to kick up the bird, he figured out what was happening, and we didn’t have the problem again. What makes training your best friend so interesting is dealing with situations you didn’t expect. There’s almost always an answer. You just have to figure it out. Like the trials of raising a child, thought and insight is required but it’s worth all the effort. Dogs, just like people have to learn what’s expected of them and both teacher and student grow in the process. DICK JONES IS a freelance writer living in High Point.

HPU men rally past UNCA SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE

ASHEVILLE – The High Point University men’s soccer team fell behind 1-0 on a goal just before the half, but scored twice in the second half to pull out a 2-1 win over UNC Asheville Saturday afternoon. Senior Matt Tuttle and freshman Fejiro Okiomah each scored for the Panthers in the second half. “We are excited to get a win over a very hard working and industrious UNC Asheville team,” said head coach Dustin Fonder. “We are even more pleased it is our second road win in the Big South. I thought we really stressed possession and movement off the ball this week and in the first half we possessed better than we have all season. We still have to get better putting together two halves. But at the end of the day we didn’t possess as well in the second half but found two goals to win.” Despite outshooting the Bulldogs 11-1 in the first half, HPU went into the locker room down 1-0 after UNC Asheville’s David Parra scored in the 45th minute against the run of play. The Panthers had eight corner kicks to none for the Bulldogs in the first 45 and forced the UNC Asheville goalie to make four saves. Tuttle tied the game at 1-1 in the 53rd minute on a free kick from just outside the box under the wall to the lower

right corner of the goal. Sophomore Kendall Lawson earned the free kick with a strong run from the left side to the center of the pitch. The goal was Tuttle’s second in as many games. In the 73rd minute, Okiomah gave High Point a 2-1 lead with a goal from just in front of the net. Junior Scott Rojo sent a solid pass into the box which senior Ryan Puppolo shot on frame. The shot was saved but the rebound came out to Okiomah, who finished for his fourth goal of the season. The Panthers host defending Big South regular season and tournament champion Winthrop on Wednesday. Kickoff is scheduled for 7 p.m.

The Twins moved within a half-game of firstplace Detroit. The Tigers hosted the Chicago White Sox at night. Today is the final day of the regular season. Joe Mauer delivered his biggest hit in an MVP-caliber season, a two-out single off Cy Young candidate Zack Greinke that broke a scoreless tie in the sixth. The Twins took a 4-0 lead before the Royals rallied to tie it. Cuddyer hit his 31st homer of the season off Dusty Hughes (0-2).

For families, surviving a child’s death is a daunting challenge BY LEANNE ITALIE ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER

O

ne left turn was the difference between normal and “new normal” for Patricia Loder. She was almost home in the Milford area of Michigan on the first day of spring 1991, turning left on a road like any other, when a speeding motorcyclist sideswiped her car and killed her two children. They were Stephanie, 8, and Stephen, 5. “I was one of those people who would wake up screaming because that videotape went off in my head all the time, playing over and over again,” Loder said. “That’s a horrid weight you carry around all the time because no matter what, whether you’re right there or a thousand miles away, you’re always sup-

Always.” When her grief threatened to overpower her, Loder reluctantly attended a bereavement support group with her husband, Wayne. “There were people there who had lost their mothers, their fathers, their grandparents,” she said. “They all had grief and I respected that but no one there had lost a child.” The pain, she said, is like no other. It eats at marriages. It eats

at siblings through its relentless guilt and hopelessness. The weight of it, as Loder and other parents describe, sometimes tears families apart, but it more often draws them closer together, researchers said. Buried in the news of Jaycee

While reports of startlingly high divorce rates under the circumstances stretch back more than 30 years and once ranged from 70 to 90 percent, a 2006 survey for the bereaved families organization that helped the Loders showed a significantly lower incidence, far lower than the national average of roughly 50 percent. The 2006 survey for The Compassionate Friends, of which Loder is now executive director, showed 306 of 400 respondents were married at the time of a child’s death.

Your intuitive insight will lead to an enriching, disciplined lifestyle. ★★★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Don’t change your plans because someone has opted to go in a different direction. It may be time to make a few changes in your personal life and to surround yourself with people with whom you have more in common. ★★★

Couple’s antics could end marriage D

ear Abby: Several months ago I made a terrible mistake and e-mailed “Tom” – a friend I had a crush on – some topless pictures of myself. Tom rejected me because he is happily married. I am married, too, and when my husband, “Jake,” discovered the pictures on our computer and realized what I had done, we discussed it and agreed to put them aside and never talk about them again. Because Tom and I are friends and he was doing some repair work on our home, I have spoken to him on my cell phone numerous times. When Jake saw the phone records and realized I was still talking to Tom, he posted my pictures on an Internet porn site for all the world to see and blamed Tom so I wouldn’t speak to him anymore. Abby, Jake never told me I couldn’t speak to Tom. That he made me believe that Tom was the bad guy is upsetting, even though I was wrong in the first place for

sending my pictures to him. Do two wrongs make a right? I’m so upset by what ADVICE Jake did that I don’t Dear want him Abby to touch ■■■ me. In fact, I want a divorce. I don’t know what to do. Please help me. – Linda in Texas

Dear Linda: Your husband was willing to forgive and forget the fact that you were trying to start an affair by sending the photos to Tom. When you “discussed it and agreed never to talk about them again,” he took for granted that you would end the “friendship.” And you should have. Your actions weren’t platonic and were a threat to your own marriage. When your husband realized that the flirtation was ongoing, he punished you in a cruel way. Two wrongs do NOT

make a right. And my advice to you and Jake is to sit down with a marriage counselor, figure out where your relationship went off track and decide, calmly, whether your marriage is worth saving.

Dear Abby: My son, “Jeremy,” age 25, married his high school sweetheart a little more than a year ago. They live about 41⁄2 hours away. When Jeremy was growing up, he and I were very close. Since his marriage I have tried not to call as often as I did when he was single. I do call, but now I limit it to once every few weeks, although he rarely answers his phone. I wanted to let him call at his convenience. He has told me that e-mail is the best way to reach him. The problem is, he doesn’t respond to my e-mails, doesn’t answer my calls and rarely phones me to see how our family is doing. I was recently ill and Jeremy didn’t even call to see how I was. I’m hurt, and part of me wants to

His behavior is extremely rude, and one can only hope it isn’t because his bride has taken over and rules the roost. You deserve some answers, so by all means clear the air.

Head positioning treats dizziness by moving ‘rocks’

D

ear Dr. Donohue: After a fall resulting in head trauma, I started having dizzy spells. My neurologist referred me to a clinic that promotes a technique for alleviating dizziness and poor balance. The doctor said we need to get the little rocks (canaliths) back to where they belong and make them stay there. I did not understand any of this. I am very much improved and have learned to ward off a dizzy spell when I bend to tie my shoes or tilt my head back to get something from the top shelf. Will I ever completely get rid of this problem? – W.J. From what you say, I take it the dizziness comes with head movement. Turning over in bed, looking up, bending over – these are some of the positions that bring on benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (dizziness). The problem is in the inner ear, where our balance organ lies. Calcium particles – canaliths – from one part of the inner ear have migrated to another part, where they generate confusing signals to the brain. Dizziness results. Treatment for this relatively common kind of dizziness consists of drawing the calcium particles back to where they belong. The Epley maneuvers – a series of head movements – are one method of restoring the canaliths to their normal home. Sit on the bed in such a way that, when lying flat, your head projects over the side of the bed. If, on turning your head to the right, dizziness strikes, hold that position for 30 seconds after the dizziness goes. The next step is to turn your body to the right so that you lie on your right side with your head turned even farther to the right. Hold that position for 30 seconds. Then sit up with your head slightly bowed down for 30 seconds. If turning your head to the right doesn’t provoke dizziness, follow the above procedure with head turned to the left instead of the right. You might have to continue this maneuver for several days. The dizziness should leave. Best results are obtained when a doctor supervises this procedure. If the family doctor isn’t familiar with it, an ear, nose and throat doctor will be. Dear Dr. Donohue: I have heard of yet another study that claims caffeine is good for the brain. This study suggested that three to five cups of coffee per day would enable one to reap the benefits. As a retired chemist, I have to question the concentration of caffeine and the definition of a cup. I believe those who report these findings should include this information. Perhaps you can set the record straight. As an aside, I wonder why Webster’s recognizes the word “overdose� but not “underdose.� – J.K.

The caffeine content of an 8-ounce cup of coffee, brewed according to most manuHEALTH facturers’ recommenDr. Paul dations, Donohue is 137 mg, ■■■and that’s the amount used in the majority of studies on coffee’s (and caffeine’s) beneficial effects. Coffee is becoming the universal tonic. Admittedly, this isn’t a precise value required in chemical reactions. Caffeine content depends on the type of coffee grounds used and the volume of water added. The caffeine content of an 8-ounce cup of coffee can vary from 102 milligrams to 200 milligrams. The 137 milligrams figure is taken from tables coming from the Department of Agriculture. I like the word “underdose.� I support your campaign to recognize it. Dear Dr. Donohue: I read your advice on using petroleum jelly for split fingertips.

Kids’ stuttering usually disappears over time Q

uestion: Should I be concerned about my 2-year-old son’s tendency to stammer and repeat words? If he has a real stuttering problem, I don’t want to wait too long before doing something about it. Dr. Dobson: Your son’s stammer will probably disappear in time, but just to be safe, you should take him in now for an evaluation. There is a “normal stuttering� that is common between the ages of 2 and 6, when a child’s knowledge and vocabulary are expanding faster than his neurological ability to verbalize his thoughts. However, you should be aware of some secondary mannerisms which are indicative of a pathological stuttering beyond the normal disfluency found in preschoolers, including the child’s struggling noticeably to get words out; obvious frustration in the child while trying to speak; increasing vocal tension resulting in rising pitch or loudness; or very long prolongation (several seconds) of syllables. Whether these secondary mannerisms are present or not, the Speech and Hearing Division of Children’s Hospital in Los Angeles encourages parents to bring a child with speech difficulties in for an evaluation as early as two years of age. The likelihood of your son’s having a pathological stuttering problem is slim, but experts believe it is best to be cautious at this age – they would rather take the time to put a child through an unnecessary evaluation than to allow a potential speech problem to go unchecked.

Question: My 12year-old was asked to recite a poem at a school function the other day, and he went completely blank in front of the crowd. I know FOCUS he knew the poem perfectly because ON THE he said it dozens FAMILY of times at home. He’s a bright child, Dr. James but he’s had this Dobson trouble before. ■■■Why does his mind “turn off� when he’s under pressure? What can I do to help him? Dr. Dobson: It will be helpful to understand an important characteristic of intellectual functioning. Your son’s self-confidence, or the lack of it, actually affects the way his brain operates. All of us have experienced the frustration of mental “blocking,� which you described. This occurs when a name or fact or idea just won’t surface to the conscious mind, even though we know it is recorded in the memory. Or suppose we are about to speak to an antagonistic group and our mind suddenly goes blank. This kind of blocking usually occurs (1) when social pressure is great, and (2) when self-confidence is low. Why? Because emotions affect the efficiency of the human brain. Unlike a computer, our mental apparatus only functions properly when a delicate biochemical balance exists between the neural cells. Substances called neurotransmitters make it possible

for a cell to “fire� its electrochemical charge cross the gap (synapse) to another cell. It is now known that a sudden emotional reaction can instantly change the nature of this biochemistry, interfering with the impulse. This blockage prevents the electrical charge from being relayed, and the thought is never generated. This mechanism has profound implications for human behavior; for example, a child who feels inferior and intellectually inadequate often does not even make use of the mental power with which he has been endowed. His lack of confidence produces a disrupting mental inefficiency, and the two factors go around in an endless cycle of defeat. This is seemingly what happened to your son when he “forgot� the poem. Actually, it is not unusual for a 12-year-old to “choke� in front of a crowd. I once stood before three hundred fellow teenagers with my words stuck in my throat and my mind totally out to lunch. It was a painful experience, but time gradually erased its impact. As your child matures, he will probably overcome the problem if he can experience a few successes to build his confidence. Anything that raises self-esteem will reduce the frequency of mental blocking for children and adults alike. DR.

Hawk Mountain Migrating raptors take flight in eastern Pennsylvania

K

EMPTON, Pa. – Peering through binoculars, Arlene Koch spies something tiny and dark on the horizon. Though it’s still a few miles away and difficult to see even with magnification, she can identify the shadowy figure by its shape and the characteristics of its flight. “That’s a broadwing over five,” Koch declares from her perch atop Hawk Mountain. “Now we need about 5,000 more to follow!” Koch is a volunteer hawk counter at Hawk Mountain Sanctuary, a 2,400-acre ridgetop preserve in eastern Pennsylvania where generations have come to watch migrating hawks, eagles and falcons. Joining her this mid-September day are dozens of visitors – casual tourists and birding enthusiasts alike – hoping to catch a huge flight of broadwing hawks. Situated along a major Appalachian flyway for migratory birds known as the Kittatinny Ridge, Hawk Mountain records an average fall migration of 18,000 to 20,000 raptors. It’s one of the best, and best-known, spots in the nation to catch these sharp-beaked birds of prey as they head to warmer climes like Florida, Mexico, and Central and South America. Each morning from Aug. 15 through Dec. 15, volunteers like Koch trek about a mile over rocky terrain to a famed outcropping called North Lookout. There, they identify and count the 16 species of raptor that use the Kittatinny as a kind of aerial Autobahn. Hawk Mountain has

The tourists, meanwhile, can just sit back and enjoy the show. Which they do, coming by the thousands each fall. Despite Koch’s exhortation, a big broadwing flight would not be in the cards this day. By early evening, the official count stands at 315. (The season’s broadwing peak comes two days later, when 1,613 birds soar over North Lookout.) Even when it’s relatively slow, though, there are wonders to behold. Two sharp-shinned hawks (“sharpies” for

short) go at each other in prolonged aerial battle. A small, colorful falcon known as a kestrel streaks overhead, seemingly in a great hurry. There are a few ospreys – none clutching fish, alas – and even a bald eagle. The afternoon’s highlight: a “kettle” or flock of 38 broadwings, spiraling ever-higher in a pocket of warm air called a thermal before peeling off, one by one, to coast down the ridge. Koch takes note of each bird, furiously clicking her handheld counter. Eventually the hawks are overhead, and several dozen necks crane in unison to watch them. They disappear over the treeline. Two other species that migrate over Hawk Mountain in large numbers – sharp-

shinned and red-tailed hawks – are best seen in early October and early November, respectively. Early November also marks the arrival of small numbers of golden eagles. The peak autumn flight of bald eagles is in early September. The birds first come into view a few miles from North Lookout, appearing as specks on the horizon. Sightings are announced to the rest of the crowd, with landmarks used as reference points. Koch’s “broadwing over five,” for example, means that she has spotted a bird over a small hump known as No. 5 on the left side of the ridge. You don’t have to be an expert bird-watcher to enjoy Hawk Mountain, though. Volunteers are happy to answer questions. Koch and her counting partner, Rudy Keller, keep up a running commentary throughout the day. Any visit to the sanctuary should start at the Visitor Center, where you can buy trail passes, look at scale models of raptors, take in exhibits on raptor migration and behavior, see a live bird demonstration (on weekends only), learn about Hawk Mountain founder Rosalie Edge, and browse the gift shop. From the trailhead just off Hawk Mountain Road, it’s a short walk to the first viewing station, South Lookout. This lookout offers a fine panorama of the Kittatinny Ridge to the left and a 1,600-foot promontory called The Pinnacle to the right. On the unspoiled, green-carpeted valley floor, about 700 feet down, is the River of Rocks, a boulder field nearly a mile long and more than 40 feet deep

TIPS: Come midweek if you want to avoid the crowds, and plan to spend a few days to increase your chances of observing a big flight. Bring binoculars, sturdy walking shoes, and a small cushion (available for purchase in the sanctuary’s gift shop) if you plan to sit for any length of time – the sandstone boulders at North Lookout aren’t very comfortable.

Foot bridges take you over marshy sections; benches provide a respite for weary legs. When you get to the long stone staircase, you’re only a few minutes from North Lookout. Your efforts are

rewarded with a magnificent view – 50 miles on a clear day – of low, green mountains interspersed with patches of farmland. You’ll also notice the replica of a great horned owl sitting atop a wooden pole. It’s there to lure raptors, especially sharpies that sometimes attack it as they fly past. The owl is so lifelike that visitors often mistake it for the real thing. There’s no such confusion about the hawks.

Mamounia hotel reopens in Marrakech BY ALFRED DE MONTESQUIOU ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER

IF YOU GO...

----

M

ARRAKECH, Morocco – Winston Churchill invited Franklin Roosevelt here to relax following strategic talks during World War II, and Alfred Hitchcock shot some of “The Man Who Knew Too Much “ in the hotel’s lobby – which has also been a haunt of the Rolling Stones, Charlie Chaplin, Sharon Stone and many other Hollywood stars for nearly a century. Now, after a three-year, $176 million makeover, the Mamounia is opening again for business in the oasis gardens of Marrakech in southern Morocco. A top interior designer has refurbished its rooms in Art Deco and Arabo-Andalusian styles, star-studded chefs have opened restaurants, and a sprawling spa has been added to the 20-acre gardens of palm and olive trees to lure once again the rich and the famous to this legendary hotel set inside the Medieval ramparts of a world heritage site. “There is only three golden rules about a palace of this standing,” says Jacques Garcia, the star French decorator who led restoration efforts: “Elegance, elegance, and elegance.” Built in 1923 when Morocco was a French protectorate, the Mamounia merges the sober lines of Art Deco architecture with the intricacies of traditional arabesque decorations. The hotel has long been considered the masterpiece of this fusion of styles, unique to a handful of Moroccan buildings. Its great marble hall leads to shaded courtyards where the trickle of small fountains echoes amid multicolored tiling of rare refinement. The pool house copies a 17th-century princely pavilion. Here sculptures in the Moroccan Zellige mosaic style are carved all over the plaster walls, overlooking a 7,500-squarefoot swimming pool filtered with ozone. Colonnades and corridors reminiscent of the Alhambra palace in Spain lead to the Churchill bar, complete

View shows the new exotic garden at the legendary Marrakesh hotel La Mamounia. with black and white photos of jazzmen, a panther-dotted carpet and red leather seating. “It’s a very rare balance,” Garcia said as he toured the hotel ahead of its reopening to the public on Tuesday, Sept. 29. Restoring such a place is like touching a myth, he said. “The goal is to come back to the sources of that myth,” he said, “and give the impression that every thing here is a masterpiece.” To help him do so, Garcia relied on old photographs from the original buildings, and leaned heavily on Marrakech craftsmen, who have largely kept alive age-old painting, woodcarving and decoration techniques.

“Morocco is probably the only place in the world where artisans can still paint a ceiling exactly like the original 16th-century one,” said Garcia. The Mamounia is so emblematic of Morocco that many people in the North African country and beyond consider the hotel a national heritage – one of the very finest examples of Arabic craftsmanship and an embodiment of Moroccan art. Before the renovation, many tourists flocking to Marrakech would try to pop in for a cup of mint tea and a chance glimpse at the building, even if they couldn’t afford to rent a room. Now the hotel will be more tightly sealed, but Didier

Piquot, the manager, says outsiders can still visit if they make a booking at the restaurants. “The Mamounia is to Marrakech what the Louvres is to Paris, everybody comes to see it,” also Garcia said. “Only here, some can stay. It’s like spending a night at the museum.” Yet Prince Mamoun, the son of an 18th-century Moroccan king who received the oasis from his father and gave his name to the Mamounia gardens, would probably be astonished at the level of modern luxury brought to this museum-like setting. At the 27,000-square-foot spa, patrons can lie on white couches on a platform propped by gilded columns over the indoor pool. Deeper underground, the marbled hammam, or Turkish bath, comes with a high-tech power gym, set amid red leather sofas and black ceramic walls that lead to whirlpool baths, saunas, a beauty parlor run by the Shiseido cosmetics brand and a high-end Paris coiffeur. “I don’t think many European spas could rival, and in the U.S. there are probably less than a dozen of this quality,” said Marianne Nielsen, the Danish spa manager. The difference is that the Mamounia has also incorporated traditional techniques, like orangeflower lotions or massage creams based on Morocco’s unique Argan oil, she said. In the garden of olive trees, palm groves and jasmine bushes, a man on a vintage tricycle distributes ice cream cones. Alleys of finely groomed sand lead to the clay-court tennis grounds, while the pathway to the Moroccan restaurant has

been paved, so that women in stiletto shoes don’t damage their heels when they walk to the dining room. Inside the main building, the hotel also offers cuisine created by two chefs each with Michelin twostar restaurants in France and in Italy. Most of the 136 rooms and 71 suits, meanwhile, overlook the gardens and 12th-century ochre walls circling Marrakech, an international tourism magnet listed as a world heritage site by the United Nations’ UNESCO agency for learning and culture. And beyond the southern Moroccan desert town, the view stretches to the snowcapped peaks of the Atlas mountain range, a sight Churchill found so soothing he returned time and again to the Mamounia to paint from his room’s balcony. One such view painted in 1935, “Sunset Over the Atlas Mountains,” was auctioned in New York for $350,000 last year. Another painting he made of Marrakech in 1948 and later offered to President Harry Truman fetched $950,000. With a staff of 770, or four per room on average, the Mamounia’s luxury comes at a price: $776 to $10,350, depending on the size of the suite and the season – spring and autumn are the most sought after, though it is usually sunny all year round in Marrakech. Despite the steep fees, and the long plane rides required to get here, the Mamounia is so renowned that Piquot, its French manager, is confident the hotel will fill up fast – especially with longtime patrons curious to see what happened with the three-year makeover.

DEATH

Loss of child puts strain on marriage FROM PAGE 1E

‘If you lose your parents, you’re an orphan, but we don’t even have a word for losing a child. It represents the very worst fear in all of us.’ Therese A. Rando Warwick, R.I. offer more meaningful assistance, Loder said. “Oftentimes your family and your friends just want you to be better,” she said. “We hear that a lot, that families don’t understand. They want them to be their old selves.” Christine Frisbee and her husband, Rick, were living in New Canaan, Conn., when they lost their second oldest child, 15-year-old Rich, to a vir-

ulent form of leukemia in 1989, just 15 months after he was diagnosed. The couple, with four other children, lost their savings eight weeks after their son died when the company Rick worked for went under. “My husband and I are still married, but I admit we almost didn’t make it. We were so angry with each other on how we were reacting differently,” said Frisbee, who wrote the book “Day by Day,” about the lives of children with sick siblings. “One evening at home I asked Rick to hug me. He said, ’I can’t. I hurt too much.’ He would never have said that before.” On Sept. 7, 2001, Sherry Nolan’s 24-year-old daughter, Shannon, was beaten to death with a baseball bat. Five months pregnant with her first child, her husband led authorities to her body, buried in a wooded area in Cincinnati, Ohio. A jury convicted him of two counts of aggravated murder and he remains in prison on consecutive life sentences. “At the very beginning anyone who’s had a family member murdered, you feel as if you’ve died that day,” said Nolan,

who with her husband, L.C., and two surviving children sought the assistance of the support group Parents of Murdered Children. “We went through the stages of what could we have done to prevent this, me saying to myself what did I do in my lifetime that my child is paying for. My husband saying the same thing,” she said. “Then when you realize you haven’t done anything, you turn to one another and say what did YOU do in your lifetime?” Susan and Gary Chan of Topeka, Kan., lost their 18-year-old daughter Rachael in 1992, when a motorcycle driven by her boyfriend hit a deer at dusk. “I don’t know how many times people said, ‘Oh, God made another angel singing in the choir,’ and I was thinking, ‘I need Rachael singing off-key in the shower,’” she said. “Part of the work is redefining who you are in this new reality you didn’t choose.” Therese A. Rando, a Warwick, R.I., psychologist who specializes in the study and treatment of loss, said flawed research is to blame for the notion that a child’s

death leads to divorce more often than not. “In no way, shape or form is the divorce rate even near the national average,” Rando said. “I’m amazed there aren’t more divorces. The dynamics of losing a child are so different. If you’re a wife, you’re a widower. If you lose your parents, you’re an orphan, but we don’t even have a word for losing a child. It represents the very worst fear in all of us.” The Chans were also helped by The Compassionate Friends, which offers support groups through 615 chapters in every state, plus Puerto Rico and Washington, D.C. The nonprofit

organization also has chapters in more than 30 countries. Talking with others grieving the loss of a child helped pull her husband closer after it appeared he was drifting away, Chan said. “Early on my husband kind of went into a workaholic mode. It’s the only place he felt like he had some control, but he realized that he was putting off what he needed to do,” she said. “We made a commitment early on that this was going to be hard work, that it wasn’t going to tear us apart. We always came back to the fact that we both loved Rachael.”

researchers in 1999, only 9 percent of 253 respondents said they divorced following their child’s death, with 24 percent of the remainder saying they had considered divorce but didn’t follow through. “While the death of one’s child definitely places stress on a marriage, we believe the divorce rate is so low because of the commitment parents have to survive their tragedy as a shared experience,” Loder said. After her car crash, which also killed the motorcyclist, a hospital nurse warned Loder about the high risk of divorce. “First I was told my children had died. Then I was told my marriage would die. There are no words that can describe how that warning compounded the grief I already felt,” she said. A range of factors are at play when it comes to the toll on marriages of fatal tragedy involving children, including a couple’s level of education and their ability to pay for outside help. Also on the list are whether a marriage was already at risk and how attuned loved ones are to the kind of support needed by the bereaved.

Paper Maché

Water-loving Lab should not be beached D

ear Dr. Fox: We have a yellow Lab who loves to swim. We have just figured out that swimming is causing him to itch and have crawly skin, even after one short swim. He seems miserable – even walking around causes him discomfort, as he always looks as if he wants to scratch. We always rinse him off after swimming, and it doesn’t seem to matter where he swims – in a lake or river. He is fed Blue Buffalo holistic food along with homemade that closely follows your recipe. He also gets on omega-3 capsule every day. Is there anything you could recommend that would help? We were thinking maybe a topical treatment of some sort. Swimming is one of his favorite things. We do a lot of boating, and he is always with us. We would hate to have to keep him out of the water. – P.H., Minneapolis, Minn. Dear P.H: Some dogs develop an allergic skin condition associated with outdoor swimming that could be a hypersensitivity to algae or other water-borne organisms. In some cases, a skin fungus is involved that triggers histamine release soon after the dog’s skin becomes wet. I would increase his omega-3 intake to a tablespoon daily of good-quality fish oil (like Nordic Naturals) available in liquid form, rather than capsules. Try a human shampoo like Selsun Blue (medicated) or other medicated shampoos from your veterinarian. Also ask for a prescription of antihistamine pills that will help subdue your dog’s skin hypersensitivity. Give this an hour before swimming. After a swim, hose your dog down well with clean water and dry him thoroughly. Dear Dr. Fox: I want to discuss the subject of treating hygroma and how you might help the animal community by spreading the word through your column. The current treatment by many veterinarians is to put a drain in and to surgically remove the swelling (bursa) or leave it untreated, which often results in an open wound. The results of these techniques are almost always poor. We constantly hear of cases where the procedures result in wounds that do not heal and, in extreme cases, become decubital ulcers. We have heard of situations where the DVM has done multiple surgeries, each one resulting in a greater

wound site. Some veterinarians are seeing the light (as evident by postings on the Veterinary Information Network), recommending against surgery

and drains. There is a better way not only to treat this problem, even when acute, but also to deal with it at the early stages without surgery. This is where the potential selfpromotion kicks in. Ten years ago, we invented a product called DogLeggs for our friend and family member Gerif, a 10-year-old Rottweiler who developed a severe hygroma and our local DVM did not have an effective treatment. DogLeggs is a coverage solution that provides the protection necessary to prevent the repeated trauma to the joint area and allow the body to heal itself. Thousands of dogs have been cured using this product. Through the veterinary conferences we attend and the advertising we do in veterinary medical journals, we continue to work hard to get the word out to both professional animal health people and the communities they serve. We hope you will see fit to mention this in your column. The most important thing for us is to help animals be healthy and bring hope to their human companions. – J.G., Reston, Va. Dear J.G.: Hygroma, a serum-filled blister, is a common affliction of large dogs, especially as they get older. Callouses on their elbows may become infected, and the infection spreads into the hygroma and around the elbow joint, making life difficult. Your product will indeed improve the quality of life and comfort of many dogs. All large dogs should be given padded dog beds on the floor and be trained to lie on them in order to help reduce elbow trauma. Daily application of aloe-vera gel to the elbow will help the healing process. Affected dogs should get used to wearing the elbow-protecting harness made by DogLeggs.

A U.S. Special Forces soldier spins a soccer ball on the tip of a ball point pin to the delight of the children at a school in Afghanistan. The soldiers brought balls to be given by the Afghan National Police to the children.

Hearts & minds U.S. forces move into Afghan city BY KEVIN MAURER ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER

NILI, Afghanistan — The soldiers hesitated as the mullah preached, unsure if they would be welcome at the celebration of one of Islam’s highest holidays. But when the sermon ended, the Afghans draped bright scarves over the soldiers’ tanned necks. Then they pushed Chief

‘We are enthusiastic about this initiative and believe that it will go a long way to increasing security and enabling villagers to defend themselves.’ Col. James E. Kraft Special Forces commander Warrant Officer Chaka, a Puerto Rican with a thick black beard and a deep tan who could easily pass for Afghan, up front to speak. Chaka thanked the

elders and showed them his hands stained orange for the Eid celebration. “This is our home away from home,” said Chaka. “We wanted to come over and be with our neighbors.” The event showed how these dozen Special Forces soldiers have joined in the daily life of the town’s 95,000 residents since they moved in a month ago. The team is among only a few U.S. troops to live in the midst of Afghans, but there will likely be more. The hope is to push Special Forces teams into villages throughout Afghanistan, giving them the mission of rebuilding and training Afghan police and soldiers. For its part, the village of Nili, the provincial capital of Day Kundi in central Afghanistan, had built a living compound in hopes of attracting Western aid workers roaming Afghanistan in search of projects. It stood empty for two years, until Day Kundi’s governor lobbied international forces for help. The request dovetailed with a plan by the top commander in Afghanistan, U.S. Gen. Stanley McChrystal, to forge closer ties between the U.S. military and Afghans. “We are enthusiastic about this initiative and believe that it will go a long way to increasing security and enabling villagers to defend themselves,” said Col. James E. Kraft, commander of the 7th Special Forces Group. “Everyday we are here, we are making our Afghan partners better. In the final analysis, the onus of security in Afghanistan will rest with its security forces. We want to work

A top U.S. military commander has ordered a new investigation of a 2008 firefight in Afghanistan that claimed the lives of nine American soldiers and led to allegations of negligence by their senior commanders. Army Gen. David Petraeus, who heads the U.S. Central Command, has appointed Richard Natonski, a Marine Corps lieutenant general, to handle the inquiry, Central Command announced Wednesday. New issues have arisen since an official Army investigation into the battle was completed more than a year ago, the command said, but it would not say what those issues were. Family members of the soldiers killed when their remote outpost was attacked by an estimated 200 Taliban have said the Army’s investigation was inadequate. More than two dozen soldiers were wounded during the battle on July 13, 2008. “When you have an entire infantry platoon basically rendered combat ineffective, surprised by 200 insurgents, something just doesn’t sit right,” said David Brostrom, a retired Army colonel whose son Jonathan was one of the soldiers killed.

Nili sits in a sharp valley surrounded by towering peaks. Between the biscuit colored compounds and houses that make up the town are acres of almond trees, which the locals harvest. Established in 2004 from several isolated northern districts in Uruzgan province, Day Kundi is dominated by ethnic Hazaras, who complain of persecution from their Pashtun neighbors. A Taliban saying about nonPashtuns goes: “Tajiks to

Tajikistan, Uzbeks to Uzbekistan, and Hazaras to goristan (graveyard).” Day Kundi is a perfect testing ground in many ways, because it is so peaceful and progressive — it is home to one of Afghanistan’s few female mayors — and so poor. Overlooked by development projects and the military alike, its streets are dirt, its schools are in shambles and it faces a shortage of water for crops. With winter fast approaching, any building projects will be difficult to complete until spring when the passes are clear.

YOUR COMMUNITY. YOUR NEWSPAPER.

The Special Forces soldiers spend their days in and around Nili meeting with local leaders, visiting schools and helping the doctors at the province’s two hospitals. Everywhere they go, they bring soccer balls and backpacks for the children and radios and food for the adults. “These guys have to learn how to do this,” said Capt. Mark, a former enlisted Green Beret and helicopter pilot whose deep blue eyes draw immediate notice among Afghans. “That way when we are gone, the ideals are already in place.”

Wind mills work atop the mesa near Sterling City, Texas. A reader-submitted question about wind turbine design is being answered as part of an Associated Press Q&A column called “Ask AP.”

Questions concern wind power, jobless benefits THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Wind power has its fans, but the turbines that turn breezes into energy are also generating concerns: Some worry that the huge contraptions might put wildlife at risk. So has anyone considered illuminating them with floodlights or painting them hot pink, so animals know to stay away? Curiosity about more wildlife-friendly wind farms inspired one of the questions in this edition of “Ask AP,” a weekly Q&A column where AP journalists respond to readers’ questions about the news. If you have your own news-related question that you’d like to see answered by an AP reporter or editor, send it to newsquestions@ap.org, with “Ask AP” in the subject line. And please include your full name and hometown so they can be published with your question. Q. Where do the funds for my unemployment check come from? Javier Gamez Pico Rivera, Calif. A. Unemployment insurance is funded by a combination of state and federal taxes levied on employers. The federal tax is equivalent to 0.8 percent of the first $7,000 of wages, or a maximum of $56 per employee, according to the Labor Department. State taxes vary. The federal taxes pay for the administration of the program and have also been paying for emergency extended benefits, as Congress has added up to 53 weeks of extra benefits on top of the 26 weeks provided by most states. State taxes pay for the first 26 weeks. But those taxes haven’t

been able to keep up with the record number of Americans receiving unemployment insurance, as joblessness has soared during the current recession to a 26-year high of 9.7 percent. As a result, extended benefits are now being paid out of federal income tax revenue. Many states are also borrowing from the federal government as their unemployment insurance trust funds have been depleted. Christopher Rugaber, AP Economics Writer Washington Q. Following up on the issue of wind farms potentially harming birds and sea life, from a previous Ask AP: Have the makers of wind turbines done anything with their designs to try to prevent this? Such as by using sounds, bright fluorescent paint or floodlights that might keep animals safe? It seems like this might reduce opposition to these projects. Bob Enger Los Angeles A. Turbine manufacturers and wind farm developers are experimenting with techniques to try to reduce bird and other wildlife injuries. One idea is to determine wildlife migratory patterns before work is started so turbines can be located outside those pathways. Another is to shut down turbines temporarily when birds are migrating through the area. Some companies are testing radar to detect the presence of birds and then tilt turbine blades to allow for safer pas-

sage. Others have painted blades and adjusted blade speeds, but the jury is still out whether those steps have been successful, said Dave Stout of the Fish and Wildlife Service. Manufacturers have designed turbines with fewer places for birds to nest, and towers that are 200 feet or taller also have been fitted with lights to comply with a Federal Aviation Administration regulation. Sandy Shore AP Energy Writer Denver Q. Will the proposals in Congress for health care reform reduce or eliminate costs related to workers’ compensation claims? And will they reduce costs for Veterans’ Administration and federal employee health care? Rowland Driskell Rancho Palos Verdes, Calif. A. First of all, workers’ compensation is largely handled by the states, not by the federal government. And there’s nothing in the health care bills in Congress that would affect the federal employee health plan. As for veterans, President Barack Obama has said the proposed health care overhaul would not change how they get their VA medical services. He’s told veterans that there’s no discussion in Washington that involves taking away veterans’ health benefits. Republicans and some veterans organizations, however, have expressed concern that veterans could be subjected to a 2.5 percent tax targeting individuals who don’t have acceptable health insurance.

Stimulus could spur broadband access BY SUE BOOK MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE REGIONAL NEWS

NEW BERN – The availability of wireless Internet access for remote areas of Craven, Pamlico and Jones counties – as well as much of coastal North Carolina – could become a benefit of federal stimulus money. At least 41 private companies have filed applications to serve North Carolina with federal stimulus money designated to expand broadband or wireless Internet or phone service access and some of them would serve Cra-

ven, Pamlico and Jones counties. About 200 companies across the country are looking for part of the $7.9 billion in federal stimulus money expected to be allocated in two or three rounds, with the first expected in October. One of them, California-based Cleartalk, has applied to serve a 38county coastal area including Craven, Pamlico and Jones counties that would provide competitively-priced broadband and wireless for a 19,625square-mile area. Matthew Merritt of Cleartalk was scheduled

to meet with Rep. G.K. Butterfield’s staff on Monday as part of that company’s effort to get $48 million in 50-50 loan-grant federal stimulus money to build a 3G wireless network. It would deliver mobile broadband service with download speeds in excess of 2.5 megabytes per second and upload speeds of 700 kilobytes per second. It will also be able to accommodate future technologies with download speeds up to 50 Mbps. There are dead spots for wireless in Craven County around Harlowe, northwest of Vanceboro and west of Fort Barnwell.

Family center receives major grant MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE REGIONAL NEWS SERVICE

BURLINGTON – The federal government has awarded $292,059 to Alamance County’s Family Justice Center to help pay for computer technology and the first two years of a bilingual advocate. The center, the first of its kind in North Carolina and one of only a hand-

ful in the U.S, is slated to open in the spring. It will “house social, legal and law enforcement services in one location to more efficiently serve victims of domestic violence and child abuse” and is modeled on a facility in San Diego, Center Director Deanna Manning said in announcing the grant. The concept has enjoyed widespread support

among county officials. Currently, to get a protective order, victims end up going back and forth between several county agencies. “We’re hoping to eliminate all that by putting it all in one place,” Manning said. Doing that also will make the process safer for victims, said county DSS Director Susan Osborne.

In some cases, abusers are waiting for victims when they leave the Sheriff’s Office after the victims drop off the signed protective orders. “Increasing victim safety is what this is all about,” Osborne said. The former Department of Social Services on Martin Street in Burlington will house the center and the county fire marshal’s office.

Museum showcases Gauguin in Paris

Thomas Jane stars as Ray Drecker in the HBO series “Hung.� The comedy about a Detroit high school basketball coach who turns to male prostitution to make enough money to fix his house and provide for his teenage kids is arguably the show most informed by the recession.

In hard times, arts provide escapism and realism N

EW YORK (AP) – In hard times, entertainment either grinds it out with the rest of us, or it waltzes. During the Depression in the ’30s, there were stories about the plight of the nation’s unemployed, like John Steinbeck’s “The Grapes of Wrath,� alongside the extravagant musicals of Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers. In the ’70s, gritty films like Martin Scorsese’s “Taxi Driver� coincided with disco. As much as people want to see their experiences mirrored in pop culture, they also want to escape them. A year after the Great Recession began, it’s clear that the same historical dichotomy is laced throughout today’s movies, TV shows, pop songs, books and plays.

Most art takes time to produce, so it may be another year or two before the economic meltdown is fully ingested into culture. Nothing yet could be called the equivalent of E.Y. Harburg’s classic 1931 song “Brother, Can You Spare a Dime?� We have not exactly swapped the Kardashians for the Joads. But the spirit of Harburg’s lyrics is finding its way into our Recession-era entertainment, as artists have begun filtering today’s experiences into their work. “It informs more by osmosis,� says Craig Finn of the rock band the Hold Steady. “You walk around, you look at life, you see things. Then you go to write, and the things you see

and the things you experience tend to be the things you write about.� One of Finn’s heroes – Bruce Springsteen – has been, too. The Boss has performed passionately through the year to “bring a healing� to the thousands who have lost their jobs. Springsteen has made Stephen Foster’s Civil War-era “Hard Times Come Again No More� a concert staple. “The thing that links (the escapism and realism) is an interest in ordinary people,� says Morris Dickstein, author of “Dancing in the Dark: A Cultural History of the Great Depression.� “In hard times, people identify very intensely with people who do extraordinary exploits.�

‘West Side Story’ recoups $14 million investment NEW YORK (AP) – “West Side Story� has danced into the financial hit column. Its producers say the current Broadway revival has recouped its $14 million in-

vestment in less than eight months. The production, directed by Arthur Laurents, opened last March at the Palace Theatre and has been doing strong business since then.

Laurents wrote the book for the musical, which features a score by Leonard Bernstein and Stephen Sondheim. The original production opened on Broadway in 1957.

The Cinderella story of Susan Boyle, Dickstein says, is a “typical Depression kind of thing.� The 48-year-old British singer became an overnight, global sensation after singing “I Dreamed a Dream� from “Les Miserables� on “Britain’s Got Talent.� Arguably the show most informed by the recession is HBO’s “Hung,� a comedy about a Detroit high school basketball coach who turns to male prostitution to make enough money to fix his house and provide for his teenage kids. Ray Drecker, played by Thomas Jane, is constantly worried about his job; his ex-wife’s wealthier new boyfriend complains about losing “a third� of his savings.

CLEVELAND (AP) – Before his Tahiti paintings established him, Paul Gauguin was snubbed by the 1889 Paris world’s fair. Undaunted, he and colleagues staged a rival show in a cafe, a formative time featured in an international exhibition at the Cleveland Museum of Art. The “exhibition about an exhibition� runs from Oct. 4 through Jan. 18 and then goes to the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam. It includes works on view by Louis Anquetin, Emile Bernard, Charles Laval and Emile Schuffenecker. “Paul Gauguin: Paris, 1889� includes more than 75 paintings, sculptures and works on paper by Gauguin and his contemporaries.

Alice in Chains offers first CD since tragedy BY MARK KENNEDY ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER

N

EW YORK – AC/DC did it. So did Black Sabbath. Van Halen did it, but not everyone was happy. INXS didn’t do it. Nor could Queen. And Motley Crue probably shouldn’t have even tried. The examples of rock bands who succeed in a second wind without their original lead singers are few and far between. Alice in Chains is hoping they’ll beat the odds. The Seattle-based rockers this week release the 11-song “Black Gives Way to Blue,� their first CD

since the 2002 drug overdose death of their lead singer, Layne Staley. “The loss of Layne is an unfillable hole. We’re not trying to fill that space. There’s a space that remains empty and we take it with us – that’s his, always,� says co-guitarist and co-vocalist Jerry Cantrell. “We’re creating new space around it, that’s all.� The quartet includes Mike Inez on bass, Sean Kinney on drums and new guy William DuVall, who takes on co-guitar and co-vocalist duties. The album cover shows an unsentimental, almost medical drawing of a human heart, and it doesn’t take the band long to

acknowledge their personal pain. “Time to start living, like just before we died,� go the lyrics to “All Secrets Known,� the opening song. “There’s no going back to the place we started from.� In an interview in a swanky, marble-heavy midtown hotel lobby, Kinney and Cantrell – both decked out in T-shirts, jeans and long, cascading hair – say they felt they had to address their loss early on the album. “You figure you get that out of the way,� says Kinney. “Lay it out there, man,� agrees Cantrell. “We haven’t pulled any punches before.�

Novel released as video book NEW YORK (AP) – The latest novel from best-selling romance author Jude Deveraux isn’t exactly a book. “Promises� is a reading and viewing experience, a digital text in which videos not only complement the narrative but add to it. “Promises� is one of four online video books published Thursday by Simon & Schuster Inc.

Double hand transplant patient out of hospital L

AP

Jeff Kepner bounces, then catches a small rubber ball during his daily therapy session in Pittsburgh recently.

ANCASTER, Pa. (AP) – The mother of the nation’s first double hand transplant patient says he’s out of the hospital and looking forward to returning to his wife and daughter in Georgia. Doris Schafer told the Intelligencer Journal-Lancaster New Era that her son, Jeff Kepner, visited her over the weekend in Lancaster. She says he planned to return to Augusta, Ga., at the end of last week. Schafer says Kepner is considerably happier than when she saw him in June at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, about a month after the transplant. She says her son still has no feeling in his fingers but is learning how to catch a ball and pick up small items. His doctors have said nerves grow about an inch a month. Kepner lost his hands a decade ago to a bacterial infection.

Double hand transplant patient Jeff Kepner grasps a drinking cup during his daily therapy session in Pittsburgh. Although Kepner’s operation was the first double hand transplant in the United States, there have been eight others performed abroad. AP

Palin’s book already a best-seller before official release

Plex Wireless

NEW YORK (AP) – Move over, Dan Brown. Sarah Palin is on top of the charts. Just two days after HarperCollins announced that Palin’s “Going Rogue” had been moved up from the spring to Nov. 17, preorders Wednesday night for the former Alaska governor’s memoir made it No. 1 on both Amazon. com and Barnes & Noble. com. Among the books “GoAP ing Rogue” is outselling: Image released by HarperSen. Ted Kennedy’s “True Collins shows the book cov-

Compass,” Mitch Albom’s “Have a Little Faith” and Brown’s “The Lost Symbol,” his first novel since “The Da Vinci Code” and, perhaps until now, the year’s most anticipated release. Palin, in collaboration with author Lynn Vincent, completed her 400-page book just four months after agreeing to terms with HarperCollins, which plans a first printing of 1.5 million copies. It’s the first book by Palin, the 2008 Republican vice presidential candidate and Alaska governor until suddenly resigning last summer. She is regarded as a possible 2012 contender for the presidency. Past candidates, notably Barack Obama, have been

A woman taking a call at Waldenbooks in Wasilla, Palin’s hometown, said she was pre-ordering a copy at that moment and there had been “lots of interest.” She would not give her name but referred a reporter to her boss, Borders district manager Grant Larsen, who said interest had been strong both in Wasilla and Anchorage. “We’re very excited about it and already have several signed up,” he said. “We’re expecting that to be massive.” A lot of people are coming into the store and asking to reserve a copy, Larsen said. Borders booksellers also are asking customers if they want to reserve one.

Tips on selling a luxury house in current market A

n imposing Georgian colonial with seven bedrooms and a supersized lap pool was on the market more than 18 months before it sold for $2 million, a steep drop from its original price. By then, its sellers, a wealthy family seeking a more childfriendly neighborhood, were exhausted by their long struggle to locate buyers. As this story illustrates, those trying to sell an upper-end home in this market can face significant challenges – particularly if they strive for too high a list price at the opening, says Mark Nash, a real estate broker and author of “1001 Tips for Buying and Selling a Home.” “Even for high net-worth individuals, there can be obstacles to financing one of these exceptional properties,” Nash says. One factor is that in this phase of the economic cycle, interest rates on very large mortgages – known as “jumbos” – are higher than rates on less expensive home loans, known as “conforming mortgages.” Another factor is that even those in the upper brackets are now more cautious about housing expenditures, according to Nash, who adds that the market for top-end houses has also declined because fewer senior executives are currently being transferred. Still, he says the wannabe sellers of luxury homes should work closely with their listing agent to set a strategy and tactics tailored to the high-end market. Here are pointers: • Seek a sophisticated listing agent. Many real estate agents have the expertise to market average properties. But fewer have experience selling upper-echelon homes, says Monte Helme, a former Century 21 executive and consultant to HouseHunt Inc. (www. househunt.com) “The upscale community is a totally different marketplace. This is no place for beginners,” Helme says. How can you find the appropriate agent to help sell your luxury house? “Referrals are the way to go. As with any real estate you’re selling, word of mouth is the best way to find a pro,” Helme says. After you’ve assembled a short list through references, he says you should do in-depth interviews with all the agents on the roster before making your final selection. “Ask for details about their marketing plans and how they’ll follow through to close a sale,” says Helme, noting that buyers of high-end houses typically expect more help with their housing transitions than do average purchasers. • Price your place by consensus. The sellers of a cookie-cutter home in

a tract subdivision normally have an easier time setting their list price than do those who own a luxury place, Nash says. “Most estate homes are one-of-a-kind custom properties. So it’s harder to REAL ESTATE figure out the right price tag to hang on them,” he says. Ellen As a basis for pricing, Martin the owners of any “For ■■■ Sale” property should analyze the results of comparable recent sales. But, as Nash says, home sellers in the upper echelon usually need to make more adjustments. “Don’t just rely on your one agent for a recommendation on the appropriate list price. Ask the agent to draw colleagues from the same office into the discussion and maybe their broker, as well. That way you’ll get more of a consensus on the correct price,” he says. If in doubt on the appropriate price for your luxury home, Nash says you should move to the lower end of the suggested range. “The buyers of these houses may have money. But in this market, they’ll still demand a deal,” he says. Nash, who represented the purchasers of the seven- bedroom Georgian colonial, says it wouldn’t have languished on the market so long had it been priced more realistically from the outset. • Emphasize the quality of your local public schools. Given that school quality is important to buyers in all income categories, make sure the marketing materials developed to sell your home highlight statistics that show the strength of the local schools. “Also list the tuition costs for the nearby private schools to show potential buyers how much they’d save if they sent their kids to public schools,” Nash says. • Go for “killer curb appeal.” While a handsome front door with polished brass hardware and meticulously pruned shrubbery, such as topiary gardens, are status symbols that matter for many high-end buyers, Nash says no home seller should expend a fortune to make a property more appealing to prospects. However, a sizeable investment in curb appeal could help hasten the sale of a luxury home. “In some cases, spending the money to install that circular driveway with the fountain in the middle could be justified if it gives your house killer curb appeal,” he says.

Bipartisan push under way to stop real estate fraud WASHINGTON (AP) – A bipartisan push is under way in the Senate to spend more money to stop mortgage scams. Sens. Charles Schumer, a Democrat, and Jon Kyl, a Republican, proposed legislation this week that would award up to $200 million to state and local prosecutors to go after real estate fraud. The money would be awarded as competitive grants to prosecutors’ offices to hire new investigators, accountants and attorneys. Advocates say states have been unable to prosecute many troubling cases because of a lack of staff and other resources. “The housing crisis has spawned a cottage industry of refinancing and foreclosure prevention scams,” Schumer said in a statement. “This bill will put a stop to the criminals who are trying to swoop in and take advantage of desperate homeowners.” As a New York senator, Schumer represents Wall Street but has championed such politically popular issues as reducing foreclosure rates. Kyl, a conservative, has taken up consumer rights issues such as identify theft. His home state of Arizona has ex-

perienced some of the highest foreclosure rates in the country. Their legislative proposal represents a rare show of bipartisanship in a Congress divided on President Barack
