Incentives plan gets closer look BY DAVID NIVENS ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

GUILFORD COUNTY – Despite the support of business groups for a proposed county incentives plan aimed at small business, commissioners decided Thursday to try to work out the details next month.

Republican Commissioner Steve Arnold of High Point, who proposed the policy earlier this year and lobbied commissioners to approve $1.3 million for the program, joined the 9-2 vote to table the proposal until Oct. 1. During a public hearing, the Greensboro Partnership, an economic development group, and

TREBIC, representing property developers, supported the plan with reservations about its legality. “And you will have to be careful with the financial impact that could be $3.9 million after three years,” said Pat Danahy, partner-

to give, then I don’t know when will be.” Smith said he expects new contributions from Harland Clarke, a check manufacturing facility that opened in High Point last month. Organizations such as the Bank of North Carolina also have increased their pledge amounts.

HIGH POINT – It was an unlikely place for a religious quotation to be displayed, but the sign he found at a salvage yard in Reidsville years ago made an impression on the Rev. Howard Pittman. “It said, ‘The devil makes trash out of people, but God recycles,” recalled Pittman, the longtime pastor of Lakeview Free Will Baptist Church in north High Point. “I came back and put that on the sign.” For years, Pittman has been adorning the marquee of the Johnson Street church with pearls of wit and wisdom like this. It’s just one way Pittman has tried to keep the church connected to the community. At the end of this month, 43 years after coming to High Point and starting the church out of an Avery Avenue house he rented, Pittman, 71, will retire. “The church right now is in the best shape its been since I came here, and that’s the way I wanted to leave it,” he said. Fresh out of Bible college in June 1966, Pittman drove his wife and children to High Point with “everything we had in the world in a 4-by-7 U-Haul trailer. ... We decided we’d like to come to the middle part of the state. We were just thinking about it, praying about it, and High Point popped into our minds. We had never been to High Point in our life. We didn’t know a soul here.” Pittman grew up in the Free Will Baptist Church on the N.C. coast and wound up moving his fledgling church here several times before settling in its current site in the early 1970s. “His contribution has been longevity, steadfastness – starting basically with no outside support except from a couple of small churches,” said David Peele, a Lakeview Free Will member who’s known Pittman for about 40 years. “The church doesn’t have any outstanding debt, has a good reputation in the community and is hopefully poised to move forward.” Peele said Pittman’s willingness to accept only a modest income for his ministry was a key in helping the church succeed. Pittman helped make ends meet by working as a paint contractor for 35 years. “Through that, I met a lot of people,” he said. “For a church of this size, I probably preached more funerals in High Point than most pastors have. I preach a lot of funerals for people not affiliated with our church.”

Likewise, Smith said the need for each of the organization’s partner agencies has increased. He said organizations that provide basic needs such as food, shelter and utility assistance are hurting the most during the economic downturn. “Even though our goal is about $26,000 less than we actually raised last year, it’s still going to be a stretch because we’ve already identified those losses,” Smith said. “If now is not the time

A group representing United Way of Greater High Point pulls a large Volvo tractor-trailer toward a group from United Way of Greater Greensboro during the kickoff campaign Thursday.

HIGH POINT – Rain and gray skies didn’t dampen the spirit of the United Ways of Greater High Point and Greater Greensboro on Thursday. The nonprofit organizations and guests gathered at the Volvo Group Campus Communications Center to officially kick off their 2009 campaigns and announce campaign goals for the year. Both organizations are aiming to raise $4.5 million before the campaigns conclude in late January. Leah Price, campaign chairperson for the United Way of Greater High Point, said the need for this year’s campaign money, which is distributed to various partner agencies who provide assistance to needy members of the community, is greater than ever. “Life is not about waiting for the storm to pass,” she said, noting the day’s cloudy weather and poor economic conditions. “It’s about learning to dance in the rain. We are in the midst of one of the worst storms of our generation. I guarantee you, the rain dance is much sweeter for the giver than the receiver.” Pacesetter campaigns, which some corporate businesses began in the summer, already have raised about $1.4 million toward the 2009 goal. The city of High Point also announced a 10 percent increase in its contributions. “We’ve got an ambitious goal, and it’s going to be a stretch,” Price said. “But we’re ready to

Thomasville candidates face questions on election system BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

THOMASVILLE – A Chair City resident questioned candidates running for Thomasville City Council and mayor Thursday on how they plan to vote on a referendum to change the city’s election system in November. During a candidate forum at Piedmont Crossing Retirement Community, Barney W. Hill, a Thomasville resident, asked all 11 candidates for City Council and two candidates for the mayor’s seat how they would vote and if they would bring the issue back up if it doesn’t pass in November. In August, the City Council voted 5-2 to place a referendum on the 2009 municipal election ballot that could change the city’s election process in 2011. If approved by the voters, the referendum would allow the

terms of office for all members of the council to ultimately be four years for each of the seven seats. For the transition to the new procedure, the top four vote-getters in the 2011 election would receive four-year terms, and the next three would receive two-year terms. Thomasville voters will elect all of the seven council seats, as well as mayor, this year. Council candidates Pat Harris Shelton, Ricky Murphy, Jackie Jackson, Neal Grimes, George Burton, Ronald Bratton and incumbent Mayor Joe Bennett would not publicly disclose on what way they would vote, noting their votes were “personal.” Responding to Hill’s question, Councilmen David Yemm and Raleigh York Jr. said they previously voted no against putting the referendum on the ballot. “I thought if we are going to have a vote, it would be better to

ship president. Business owners would have to invest a minimum of $10,000 for real property improvements to receive grants over three years. Arnold said he wanted as many small businesses as possible to qualify for grants. Marlene Sanford, TREBIC director, encouraged commissioners to add apartment development to the policy despite some legal concerns. “Developers are small business,” Sanford said. “We’d appreciate adding apartments.” “We need something for small business,” said Republican Commissioner Linda Shaw. “We need to see houses built.” Mike Able of Greensboro said the policy would be “illegal” and unconstitutional because it would not satisfy a public purpose. “Why should a taxpayer like me subsidize prop-

do it next year because the effective date will not be until 2011, and we will have better turnout next year,” York said. “I would have rather seen this be an initiative through petitions like it was the other times. City Council Carl Shatley and Jay Browning said they would vote against the referendum in November. Terry Hill, a candidate for mayor, also said he would vote against it. Scott Styers, an incumbent councilman, told those who attend the forum that he voted to place the referendum on the ballot. As a City Council member, Styers said he would choose not to revisit the issue if it fails on the ballot. “The only vote that counts is your vote,” he said. “The only vote that I have that mattered was giving you the choice to have the vote. That’s what is important.” dignasiak@hpe.com | 888-3657

He also consented to requiring businesses investing $10 million or more to fill out detailed applications about the job skills of employees they would hire. “I wanted to take the politicians out of this, but I could not do it legally,” Arnold said. “ What we have had is unequal justice for small business. But we do want to get this right,” Arnold said. “We want it to speak to jobs.” Republican Commissioner Billy Yow said he would not support any policy, and Democratic Commissioner Kirk Perkins said the policy “would not create a single job.”

Here’s what Watt, Burr and Hagan should say The other day, the Enterprise published a letter of what someone wished Howard Coble would say. This is what I wish Rep. Mel Watt, Sen. Richard Burr and Sen. Kay Hagan would say. “My fellow Americans, thank you for giving me a job. I will do a better job of listening, responding and acting on your concerns. To do that I will: • immediately give back the raise (and staff bonuses) recently approved. • demand a freeze on new government spending until the budget is balanced. • demand getting the return of all stimulus money sent to incarcerated persons. • demand that the unspent stimulus money be put into cost of living raises for Social Security recipients. • demand all funding for ACORN be canceled and that money be used to pay the auto dealers who supported our “Cash for Clunkers” program and dealt with 69 pages of paperwork for each clunker. • demand the USPS help conduct the 2010 census since they already go to every address. • demand the $2 billion approved for Brazil (to do offshore drilling) be returned and spent drilling here for Americans. • demand the FairTax be implemented on July 4, 2010, eliminat-

ing the IRS and freeing up untold numbers of dollars and hours spent trying to follow a tax code that Congress can’t (or won’t) follow. • demand the government get out of the car-making business and be paid back the $81 billion provided by Americans. • demand we impose term limits on ourselves and spend at least 75 percent of our term at home offices since Congress is only required to meet once a year (Article I, Section 4 of the Constitution) and save the money of Americans.” Real representatives and leaders would tackle such issues.

McGuinn, Lexington need safe sidewalks for students In High Point, the sidewalk ends on the way home from school. If you’re near the school, if you’re observant, you will see sidewalks in front of the school property, and in general, it ends there. The rest of the way home is in the streets, or on dirt trails developed from years of students mak-

ing their daily trek to and from school. When you leave Andrews High and Welborn Middle schools, head down McGuinn to Lexington, then east toward the nearby neighborhoods that come off that busy street. You’ll notice the sidewalk turns into these crusty little trails that are at times within inches of fast moving traffic. During wet weather, the students feel safer walking in the streets than on the slippery slopes that make up these muddy trails. Next time you drive by, take a look at what these young scholars are up against. Imagine if it was your honor student making this hike twice a day, every school day. Wouldn’t be nice if the city could steer some of that Kivett Drive sidewalk over this way and put in a little 1-foot-wide sidewalk from the Greenway to Carolina Street? Twelve inches wide should be just enough; they are only going one direction at a time. We already give these kids a free education, what more could they possibly need? You don’t need to hire a whole bunch of engineers, architects or city planners to figure out where to put the sidewalk, just learn enough Spanish to say “put it on the beaten path.”

We also don’t need the high-dollar-stamped asphalt crosswalks, like what’s being installed on Kivett. A gallon of white paint works just fine. That’ll save some money, and maybe, someday, a child’s life. How’s the trail to your child’s school? Happy trails. JAMES BRIGHAM High Point

• When did we become a nation with two sets of laws – average American or government-run agency or government official? Anyone suspected of breaking any law should be investigated. • ACORN should be investigated for fraud and other illegal activities by Justice Department. That many “mistakes” don’t happen by themselves. As usual, politicians standing to gain looked the other way.

Pre-Market rates with industry

YOUR VIEW POLL

OUR VIEW

his week’s Pre-Market event in downtown High Point began with a question mark. For the first time, Pre-Market was going head to head with the Las Vegas Market because of changes that market made this year in its schedule in an attempt to hurt next month’s High Point Market and this week’s Pre-Market. But it turned out to be a positive Pre-Market event here on a couple of fronts. Foremost, most manufacturers interviewed by the Enterprise were pleased with the contacts they made during the three-day event running Sunday through Tuesday which usually draws a couple of thousand people to the city. That is attributable in part to the fact that Pre-Market contacts between manufacturers and retailer representatives are mostly planned in advance, but also it’s an important indication that economic woes of the past year or two may be easing just a bit. And second, comments indicate that despite the competition the Las Vegas Market presented, Pre-Market held its own in importance to the industry. Most manufacturers and retailers interviewed here gave Pre-Market priority or made arrangements to have a presence here and in Las Vegas. And according to reports from Las Vegas, it seems only a very small number of manufacturers and exhibitors who previously had come to Pre-Market opted to go to Las Vegas and skip PreMarket. So now, calendars for the home furnishings industry and High Point turn ahead to Oct. 17-22, when the fall 2009 edition of the High Point Market will run. And despite this scheduling move by Las Vegas Market officials – an obvious attempt to upstage Pre-Market and the fall High Point Market – the work of keeping the High Point Market the world’s best goes on.

Sometimes, ‘a thousand words’ ought to be silence, instead

n Aug. 14 a young Marine Lance Corporal, Joshua Bernard, was struck by a Taliban-fired RPG during an ambush while on patrol in Afghanistan’s Helmand Province. This American hero suffered severe leg wounds and eventually succumbed to his injuries on a field hospital operating table. According to friends, Bernard was a young man whose strong faith guided him on a path of service – eventually leading to his enlistment in the Marine Corps. His passing is a tremendous blow to his family and friends – and to an eternally grateful nation. Similar stories of sacrifice and loss have been playing out across our nation as our young men and women continue to serve in harm’s way. What makes this story even more tragic is a decision by the Associated Press that crosses the bounds of decency. You see, the Associated Press has reporters and photographers embedded with the Marines as they conduct combat operations. AP photographer Julie Jacobson, an embed in Afghanistan during the ambush, captured images of Bernard as he lay mortally wounded. Sensing opportunity, the Associated Press team put together a narrative titled “AP Impact – Afghan – Death of a Marine” also using the work of journalist Alfred de Montesquiou along with cameraman Ken Teh, in which they inexplicably included the image of the slain, young Marine. Even after appeals from the family and Defense Secretary Gates, the AP went forward with its publication over their objections on the grounds that it conveyed “the grimness of war.” While I applaud many in the press who jeopardize their own safety to cover our men and women in battle, the actions of the Associated Press here also jeopardize the already fragile relationships Americans have with members of the press. Unbiased reporting from the battlefield is crucial to relaying the truths of war back to all of us at home. But incidents such as this, where the media puts its own agenda (be it per-

sonal, professional or political) ahead of the respectful treatment each of us would expect if this was a member of our family, are why so many of us are skeptical of what is reported in newspapers, online and on television. This young Marine, his family OPINION and friends deserved better. They deserved to remember their son, MICHAEL their friend, their fellow-Marine, REAGAN as he lived rather than through ■■■ the lens of a media team more interested in furtherance of their own aims than of common decency. Now the man has been forgotten for the news story. And the terrorist enemies who caused this casualty should not have their works widely distributed internationally – surely to be used as propaganda. Many news organizations understood this, and, in respect and compassion, chose not to run the photograph. I am thankful for their sense and restraint. Nevertheless, this is a test which more than 20 news outlets failed. The grimness of war is something we all need to be consistently reminded of – teaching us about the sacrifices of the few who, on our behalf, defend our freedoms as we go about our daily lives. These stories, and the courageous individuals behind them, must never be forgotten, nor should the horrors they endure be lightly pushed aside. In this instance, however, the worldwide distribution of an image of an American hero as he passes to his Creator is something far too graphic and, moreover, intrusive to pass the test of responsible journalism – and that of responsible human behavior.

East Europe grumbles about downgrade in U.S. ties PRAGUE – Scuttling a missile defense shield in the Czech Republic and Poland helps smooth relations between the U.S. and Russia. But at what price? Some of America’s staunchest allies are the East Europeans – and on Thursday, they expressed dismay at what many see as a slight after decades of their support for the U.S. Among them were some famous names, including Lech Walesa, the former Solidarity leader and Polish ex-president. “I can see what kind of policy the Obama administration is pursuing toward this part of Europe,” he said ruefully, adding: “The way we are being approached needs to change.”

EU leaders chide U.S. on climate bill BRUSSELS – The European Union says the United States has to make deeper cuts in emissions as part of legislation currently going through the U.S. Congress. Sweden’s Prime Minister Fredrik Reinfeldt says while the 27-nation bloc welcomes the draft U.S. bill on cuts, “it needs ... more done to reach the levels we have in Europe.” Reinfeldt chaired EU government leaders talks here Thursday.

AU base in Somalia hit by deadly suicide attack MOGADISHU, Somalia – Islamic insurgents posing as U.N. personnel detonated suicide car bombs in an African Union peacekeeping base Thursday to avenge a U.S. commando raid that killed an al-Qaida operative. Witnesses and officials said the bombings and a counter-strike from the AU base killed at least 16 people, including four bombers, and wounded dozens. The sophisticated suicide attack underscored links between al-Qaida’s terror network and Somalia’s homegrown insurgency. Many fear this impoverished and lawless African nation is becoming a haven for al-Qaida – a place for terrorists to train and plan attacks elsewhere.

Mexico says millions of swine flu cases possible MEXICO CITY – Mexico could see up to 5 million cases of swine flu during this winter’s flu season, a higher projection than officials had previously given, the health secretary said Thursday. Secretary Jose Angel Cordova said that in the worst-case scenario, deaths could reach 2,000. Cordova told the television network Televisa on Thursday that officials in recent weeks have seen a resurgence of the flu that first hit in April and made Mexico Ground Zero for an eventual worldwide epidemic. The number of cases declined after authorities virtually shut down the country to stem its spread.

Iraqi shot after throwing slipper at U.S. patrol FALLUJAH, Iraq – American Marines shot and wounded an Iraqi man in the former flash point city of Fallujah believing he was throwing a grenade at them, the U.S. military said Thursday – but local police and witnesses said the object was only the man’s slipper. During a joint patrol of U.S. Marines and Iraqi security forces in Fallujah, 40 miles west of Baghdad, the man “threw an object, believed to be a grenade” at the passing troops on Wednesday. Ahmed al-Jumaili, was rushed to a local hospital and was in stable condition.

Terror mastermind Noordin Top killed in Indonesia SOLO, Indonesia – Special forces raided a hide-out Thursday and killed militant mastermind Noordin Muhammed Top, striking at the heart of the terrorist network behind a deadly campaign of suicide attacks in Indonesia, including the Bali nightclub bombings. It was the latest success against terror figures worldwide, starting with a U.S. missile that took out a key Taliban commander in Pakistan last month. Besides knocking out Southeast Asia’s most-wanted man, Thursday’s operation also netted a fugitive bombmaker believed to have designed explosives for bombings at luxury hotels in Jakarta.

Netanyahu to world: Back Israeli self-defense JERUSALEM (AP) – Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Thursday rejected the U.N. report alleging Israeli war crimes in its Gaza war this year, warning world leaders that they and their anti-terror forces could be targets for similar charges. Netanyahu said Israeli forces were exercising their right to self-defense after rocket attacks by Palestinian Hamas militants against southern Israeli towns before and since Israel’s 2005 withdrawal from the Gaza Strip. “They tell us to pull out, and after we do, and we exercise our right to self defense, they call us war criminals? I don’t accept

that,” Netanyahu told Israel TV, speaking on the occasion of the Jewish New Year holiday, which begins Friday. The report of the U.N. commission, headed by South African justice Richard Goldstone, faulted Israel for civilian deaths in Gaza, saying it used disproportionate force in the offensive. About 1,400 Palestinians were killed during the three-week conflict. Israel charged that Gaza’s Islamic Hamas rulers were to blame, saying they placed rocket launchers and forces in crowded neighborhoods. The U.N. report also called Hamas’ firing of rockets at Israeli civilians a war crime.

U.S. Vice President Joe Biden (center) meets U.S. troops based at the airport in Baghdad, Iraq, Thursday. Biden said Thursday he is confident that Iraq will not alter the timetable for the withdrawal of American troops.

Biden: U.S. will follow Iraq wishes on troop pullout BAGHDAD (AP) – Vice President Joe Biden pledged Thursday to follow Iraq’s wishes should Baghdad decide to speed up the timetable for the withdrawal of American troops from the country. Speaking to reporters in Baghdad before heading to northern Iraq to meet with Kurdish leaders, Biden said, however, that there were still a number of steps that would have to be taken before Iraq could call a referendum to alter the so-called “status of forces” agreement. The agreement currently calls

for the withdrawal of American combat forces by the end of August 2010 and all U.S. troops by the end of the following year. Parliament approved the agreement in November on condition that it is put to a vote in a national referendum. The Iraqi government has agreed to hold the referendum in conjunction with parliamentary elections in January. If voters reject the agreement in the referendum, U.S. forces would have a year to withdraw instead of by the end of 2011.

Biden, the White House’s point man in Iraq, said upon his arrival in Baghdad on Tuesday that Iraqi leaders had indicated to him that the referendum was “likely to happen,” but added the caveat, “I’m not sure it’s settled yet.” “Whatever the Iraqi people decide, we will abide by it,” Biden told reporters Thursday. Biden is on a three-day trip to Iraq, his third this year, and has been meeting with local leaders to discuss issues including bridging lingering political and sectarian differences.

Car bomb in Kabul kills 6 Italians, 10 Afghans KABUL (AP) – A suicide car bomber killed six Italian soldiers and 10 Afghan civilians Thursday in the heavily guarded capital of Kabul – a grim reminder of the Taliban’s reach amid political uncertainty in Afghanistan. The Taliban claimed responsibility for the deadliest attack for the Italian contingent in the country. Violence has increased since the U.S. sent thousands more troops to push back the resurgent Taliban and bolster security for

last month’s still-unresolved presidential election. The Taliban made good on threats to disturb the vote, and militant attacks have risen not just in the group’s southern heartland but also in the north and in Kabul and surrounding areas. The bomber rammed his explosives-filled car into two Italian military vehicles in a convoy about midday. Four Italian soldiers were also wounded, said Italian Defense Minister Ignazio La Russa.

NEW HAVEN, Conn. (AP) – As police charged a Yale animal lab technician with murdering a graduate student who worked in his building, a portrait began to emerge Thursday of an unpleasant stickler for the rules who often clashed with researchers and considered the mice cages his personal fiefdom.

The muscular former high school baseball and football player is charged in the death of 24-year-old Annie Le, a pharmacology doctoral student at Yale who vanished Sept. 8. Her body was discovered five days later – her wedding day – stuffed into a utility compartment behind a wall in the basement of the

Obama junks Bush’s missile defense plan WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama abruptly canceled a longplanned missile shield for Eastern Europe on Thursday, replacing a Bush-era project that was bitterly opposed by Russia with a plan he contended would better defend against a growing threat of Iranian missiles. The United States will no longer seek to erect a missile base and radar site in Poland and the Czech Republic, poised at Russia’s hemline.

Breezy rider Handmade muscle motorcycle is result of four years work BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

THOMASVILLE – Danny Kirkman spent the last four years building a motorcycle from scratch that now draws a crowd everywhere he goes. Kirkman, a Thomasville resident, spent the winter of 2005 rebuilding a motor from a 2003 Dodge Intrepid. A year later, he started buying different junk parts from all makes of manufacturers to build the custom motorcycle. Since rebuilding the engine, Kirkman, a welder at Piedmont Natural Gas for 43 years, has spent nights and weekends piecing together the motorcycle. Kirkman recently took the motorcycle to a car and motorcycle show in Lexington, where he won first place in the customs division. “It draws a crowd,” he said. “We’ve had it to

several of these cruiseins. We carried to a show a couple weeks ago. As quickly as I pull up on the scene, they gather around it because they have never seen anything like it. In other words, it’s

You just have to be able to come up with some crazy stuff like this here.’ Danny Kirkman Thomasville resident a real crowd pleaser to the biker bunch.” With the back wheel coming off a Ford pickup truck and the brake system off a Chevrolet pickup truck, the custom motorcycle weighs 1,100 pounds compared to a regular motorcycle

that weighs 800 pounds, Kirkman said. The custom motorcycle gets 54 miles to the gallon. “I live and breathe them things,” Kirkman said of his love for motorcycles. “You just have to be able to come up with some crazy stuff like this here. I’ve got two others if I really want to ride. I built this one basically just to say you can do it.” Kirkman’s wife, Vickie, said it “frightens” her every time he rides the motorcycle because “it’s a lot of motorcycle.” “It was amazing to me to watch him build it,” she said. “I would come out and see what he was doing. Then when I would see it next time, it was all together. He worked a lot of nights out there on that motorcycle. I think it’s a beautiful motorcycle, even if he is my husband.” dignasiak@hpe.com | 888-3657

A group of 74 members of the U.S. military and their families became United States citizens during a naturalization ceremony Thursday aboard the Battleship North Carolina in Wilmington.

Community college heads set immigrant vote RALEIGH (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; North Carolinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s community colleges would once again be allowed to enroll illegal immigrants next spring under a proposal expected to come before State Board of Community Colleges today. The change won unanimous approval Thursday in the boardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s policy committee. Under the new rules, undocumented immigrants could enroll at any of the systemâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 58 campuses if they have graduated from a U.S. high school. They would have to pay

the out-of-state tuition rate, which is nearly five times the in-state rate or $30,000 for a two-year degree, said Stuart Fountain, the policy committeeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s chairman. They also couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t qualify for financial aid or supplant students who are legally in the U.S. on crowded campuses. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That is an enormous hurdle,â&#x20AC;? Fountain told reporters after the vote by six committee members. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am very pleased with the fact that we have maintained the open-door policy that has been the hallmark of the community college

system ... If they want that education that badly and are determined to succeed, then we think we need to provide that pathway.â&#x20AC;? The system has changed its illegal immigrant admission policy four times since 2000. In 2007, the system replaced a policy giving campuses the option to enroll undocumented immigrants with a requirement that they do so. The current no-admission policy was approved in May 2008 as Attorney General Roy Cooper warned of a potential legal challenge.

Womanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; old beau is her new friendâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s husband

ear Abby: I recently met a woman at a â&#x20AC;&#x153;Mommy and Meâ&#x20AC;? class. We hit it off immediately and started making plans for play dates, etc. During one class we started talking about our husbands, and I realized that her husband is someone I had a casual relationship with 10 years ago. I have avoided getting together with her ever since because I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know if it is appropriate to tell her how well I know her husband. I have not had any contact with him, and I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know how he would feel about my friendship with his wife. If we are to be friends, I feel I must be honest with her. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d appreciate your advice. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Feeling Awkward in Massachusetts Dear Feeling Awkward: If the situation were reversed, how would you feel about it? Would you feel OK with it if she had rejected your husband? If he rejected her, would you care to reintroduce someone who might be considered a â&#x20AC;&#x153;woman scornedâ&#x20AC;?? Or are you all sophisticated enough to laugh it off and let bygones be bygones? If the answer to that last question is yes, then level with her. If not, then donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t go there. Dear Abby: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Maryâ&#x20AC;? and I worked in the same department for 20 years. We would occasionally socialize outside of work along with our husbands.

They eventually divorced, but I stayed friends with Mary. She ADVICE remarried, Dear transAbby ferred out â&#x2013; â&#x2013; â&#x2013; of my department a few years ago, and we now see each other only at work-related functions. I recently heard that her ex had passed away suddenly. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know whether I should send her a condolence card, call her or not mention anything until we bump into each other again. What is the proper procedure for acknowledging â&#x20AC;&#x201C; or not â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the death of an ex-spouse? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Rochelle In Hamilton, N.Y. Dear Rochelle: If Maryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first marriage ended in a bitter divorce, drop her a line and let her know what you heard. She may not have heard the news. If the divorce was a friendly one, then give her a call and offer condolences. Not only would it be a gesture of support, but also an opportunity for the two of you to catch up. Dear Abby: My friend, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Jane,â&#x20AC;? who lives in California, is going through a painful divorce. She has recently become obsessed with a celebrity and, through fan chat rooms, found out where he hangs out, goes shop-

ping, etc. She is now attending his church. She has spoken to him casually twice and says she â&#x20AC;&#x153;knowsâ&#x20AC;? they are meant to be together. I know Jane isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t violent, and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sure she would do him no harm, but when I mentioned counseling she accused me of being â&#x20AC;&#x153;jealous.â&#x20AC;? Abby, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not teenagers. Jane is a 43-year-old woman. Mutual friends tell me I should let her have her fun. Am I right to be concerned? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Friend Of A Stalker Dear Friend: Yes, to a degree, because your friend may be setting herself up for another disappointment. Soughtafter celebrities develop an instinct for detecting obsessed fans who try to worm their way into their lives. Right now, Janeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s behavior is on the outer perimeters of normal. But if it escalates, contact the clergyperson of the church and let him or her know whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going on so he or she can take action or the celebrity can be notified. To My Jewish Readers: Rosh Hashanah begins tonight at sundown, so Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to wish everyone a happy, healthy new year! DEAR ABBY is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

THE HIGH POINT ENTERPRISE FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 18, 2009 www.hpe.com

WEâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;RE FALLINGMINTO A UTUMN! L R

Fall, or autumn, is the third of four seasons that we experience in a calendar year. The ďŹ rst day of fall coincides with the autumnal equinox, when the sun is directly over the equator in the Northern Hemisphere. In the Northern Hemisphere, the autumnal equinox occurs around September 23, and in the Southern Hemisphere, it occurs around March 21. For this reason, autumn months in the Northern Hemisphere fall in the months of September, October, November, and, sometimes, early December. In the Southern Hemisphere, the autumn months are opposite of the Northern Hemisphere; they occur late March through early June. The reason for the difference is due to the distance from the sun that each hemisphere is located. The farther away from the sun, the cooler and shorter the days will become. Fall is a very pleasant time of year. The temperatures are cooler than summer, but they are not cold. Many activities occur at this time because of the nice weather. Oktoberfest is celebrated in many parts of the world, and Thanksgiving is celebrated in November in the United States. The American football season begins in early fall, as well as many other sport seasons. Outdoor activities, such as hay rides and camp ďŹ res, are popular. Animals begin to gather food in the fall and make preparations for the winter months. Birds begin to migrate south for the winter, and farmers harvest their crops. The scenery changes as the leaves turn vivid colors of orange and red before they, as well as acorns, fall off the trees.

The $19 million, 73,000-square-foot Hassell Health Technologies Center will house GTCCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s biology, surgical technology, nursing, medical assisting and physical therapy departments.

GTCC to dedicate health center building ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

JAMESTOWN â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Guilford Technical Community College is ready to celebrate the opening of a new facility that will help bring its health careers programs under one roof. A dedication ceremony for the $19 million Hassell Health Technologies Center on the Jamestown campus will be held 2 p.m. Friday, Sept. 25. The building is named in honor and in memory of Lillian Hassell Benson through the support of Steve and Judy Benson James of Greensboro. Lillian Benson, who grew up in Jamestown and taught school in Cabarrus County for 33 years, was the mother of Judy Benson James. Representatives of the college, Judy James and government officials will participate in the ceremony. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The people of Guilford County are fortunate that Judy and Steve James, a truly committed community conscious couple, has chosen to honor a mother and an educator with funds to construct a facility that will contribute sig-

nificantly to health care in the Piedmont Triad Region,â&#x20AC;? said GTCC president Don W. Cameron. The center, which was completed on March 23, has made it possible for five allied departments to be placed under one roof in the three-story, 73,000square feet building. In the building are the biology, surgical technology, nursing, medical assisting and physical therapy departments. Those departments formerly were located in four different buildings. Judy James said itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fitting for an educational building to bear her motherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s name because â&#x20AC;&#x153;she had a real love for education. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know what inspired her to become a teacher; nobody else in the family was a teacher, but she enjoyed teaching.â&#x20AC;? James also became a teacher, following the path of her mother. She has fond memo-

ries of growing up in the neighborhood where her mother taught at Odell Elementary School in Cabarrus County. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When I was in elementary school, we lived about a block from the school where mother taught the fourth grade. We walked to school together every morning,â&#x20AC;? James said. The former Lillian Hassell graduated from Womanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s College (now UNCG), where she received her teaching degree. She also attended Guilford College for three years. Judy James said her motherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s maiden name was placed on the building because of her roots in Jamestown. She was the daughter of Erie and Oscar Hassell, and grew up in a house near the Hilltop Road-Jamestown Road intersection. Erie Hassell was a housewife and Oscar Hassell worked in the office of Southern Railway in Jamestown.

Lillian Hassell Benson moved from Cabarrus County to Wellsprings Retirement Community in Greensboro in 1995 after her husband Dick passed away. She lived there for 10 years before passing away at age 89 in 2005. The amount of the Jamesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; contribution, which will be given over a period of years, wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t announced, but a combination of state funds, county bond money and a $1 million facilities grant from the N.C. Community College System also were used to help build the facility, according to GTCC officials. A groundbreaking ceremony for the center was held in May 2007, and construction was begun by Lyon Construction of King that following June.

SERM helps some menopausal symptoms, osteoporosis

ear Dr. Donohue: My doctor recently put me on Evista. I had a complete hysterectomy when I was 40 years old. I have taken Fosamax for almost seven years for osteoporosis. My question is: Is Evista safe? The material that comes with it said it can cause strokes, heart attacks and blood clots. I am very uncomfortable taking this medicine. – C.P.

BLONDIE

Evista (raloxifene) has been in use for more than 10 years, and many women have greatly benefited from it. It’s a SERM, a selective estrogen receptor modulator. That indicates that, although it is not a hormone, it has some effects that estrogen has. If fits into estrogen receptors on some organs. By fitting into those receptors, like a key in a lock, it opens the door of those organs and has an estrogenlike effect. Evista has an estrogen effect on bones to fight osteoporosis. It doesn’t have an estrogen effect on breasts, so it does not raise the risk of breast cancer. Evista can up the risk for clot formation, heart attacks and strokes. Women with a history of heart attacks, high blood pressure or previous blood clots shouldn’t take it. The risk of these things happening to other women is quite small. A woman who is a candidate for severe osteoporosis and for whom drugs like Fosamax have not worked is also a candidate for Evista. If the thought of Evista’s rare but possible complications makes

you too uncomfortable, talk to your doctor about alternate treatments. Even if HEALTH you choose the Evista Dr. Paul route, you Donohue have to take ■■■ the recommended daily doses of vitamin D and calcium. Dear Dr. Donohue: I am a 61-year-old man who was diagnosed with glaucoma four years ago. I use eyedrops to control it. My drops are timolol and Lumigan. My eye pressure has been good since beginning these drops. I realize that without them, I could go blind. A family member brought to my attention that these drops have serious side effects. They deplete the body of coenzyme Q10. I understand that this results in weakening of the heart muscle and early death. My eye doctor is one of the top ophthalmologists in our state. When I mentioned this to him, he had no idea what I was talking about. I did some research on the Internet and found a link between glaucoma treatment and Q10 depletions. Should I be on a Q10 supplement? – C.W. In the manufacturer’s information on these two drugs, no mention is made about the depletion of coenzyme Q10. If they harmed the heart, a warning would be provided. Your ophthalmolo-

gist is a respected eye doctor who has treated thousands of glaucoma patients with the medicines he prescribed for you. He would know of such a complication if one really existed. I trust him far more than I trust your relative or the Internet. Coenzyme Q10 is found in all body cells and tissues. It assists in the generation of energy for cells and organs. I can tell you what I would do: I would forget the relative’s warning. Dear Dr. Donohue: I am writing for my wife, whose symptoms matched those of irritable bowel syndrome, about which you wrote. She consulted an internist, a gynecologist and gastroenterologist. She asked for a CA 125 test, but it was refused. She had stage 3 ovarian cancer, which was treated and now is in remission. – R.V. Ovarian cancer is deadly because its early symptoms are so nonspecific and so common to other, nonlife-threatening conditions, like irritable bowel syndrome. However, women complaining of bloating, increased abdominal size, pelvic discomfort, abdominal pain, feeling full after a few mouthfuls of food or the need to urinate frequently and urgently should suggest the possibility of ovarian cancer if treatments for the less-serious conditions do not make those symptoms disappear. I am sorry for the delay in your wife’s diagnosis.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) – A former Kentucky high school football coach was found not guilty Thursday in the death of a player who collapsed at a practice where the team was put through a series of sprints on a hot summer day. It was a rare criminal prosecution of a coach in a player’s heat-related death. Former coach David Jason Stinson, 37, was charged after 15-year-old Max Gilpin collapsed at an August 2008 practice as the team ran a series of sprints known as “gassers.” He died three days later at a Louisville hospital of heat stroke, sepsis and multiple organ failure.

Battle between Bison, Raiders not just another game BY STEVE HANF ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER

Elsewhere...

HIGH POINT – Players, parents, students and fans will be looking for bragging rights tonight when High Point Central and T. Wingate Andrews meet at Simeon Stadium. “Our kids have got to be up for it and come ready to play, because I believe the kids on the other side of the fence will be ready to play,” said Red Raiders coach Rodney McKoy, in his third season leading Andrews. “They call it the battle of High Point, and you want to win those games because they mean a lot to the kids and the community. It’s just a football game, but it’s one we want to win.”

----

Capsule looks at tonight’s other area prep games. 4D For McKoy and third-year Bison head coach Wayne Jones, though, this contest is about much more than another win or loss on the series tally, which Andrews leads 24-15. “We both have a win (from the first two meetings) and he and I both want to put that notch in our belt,” Jones said. “Most importantly, you want that win to keep the consistency going with your season. Even though it’s a rivalry game, we want to make sure we

treat it like every other game.” Despite soggy conditions – the game is expected to be played unless thunderstorms roll in – fans should be treated to a fun contest. The visiting Bison (3-1) opened with a miserable performance against R.J. Reynolds before putting together a three-game winning streak. “The guys are starting to do some of the things we’ve asked them to do, been more competitive in practice,” Jones explained. “We’ve picked up our tempo in practice and the guys are doing a better job keeping a consistent pace.” Home-standing Andrews, meanwhile, has moved to 2-2 after open-

ing with a pair of mistake-filled defeats. “We’re beginning to kind of hit our stride,” McKoy said. “You could see this team getting a little better every week.” Which team will be a little better tonight, or do the little things throughout the contest? Those likely will matter most in the end – not since 2004 has the winning margin been more than a single touchdown. Let the fun begin, but remember: Six regular-season games packed with implications for conference crowns and playoff berths remain. This is just another game. Right? shanf@hpe.com | 888-3526

Guilford College set to honor Steele, Washburn ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

GREENSBORO – Former High Point University coach Kitty Steele and Jordan Washburn of High Point are set for induction into the Guilford College Athletics Hall of Fame on Saturday. The group will be formally inducted at a 4 p.m. ceremony in Guilford’s Bryan Auditorium and honored prior to the start of the Quakers’ football game versus Averett University later that night. Steele, the wife of former HPU and Guilford basketball coach Jerry Steele, served as a physical education professor at Guilford from 1957-76 and was instrumental in developing the school’s recreational and women’s sports programs. She sponsored the Quakers’ cheerleaders and directed the Guilford’s Women’s Recreation Association and intramurals program with fellow Guilford Athletics Hall of Famers Joyce Clark and Gwen Reddeck. Kitty Steele’s efforts in expanding the school’s intramurals program led to club sports that competed against other local schools. With the passage of Title IX in 1972, Steele was the first coach of Guilford’s women’s intercollegiate teams in volleyball, basketball and tennis. She coached all three teams from 1972-74 before moving on to teach and coach at High Point University. She coached tennis and field hockey at High Point for 20 years, winning 12 conference titles and 12 conference and district coach of the year honors before retiring in 1996. The 1949 Woman’s College (now UNC Greensboro) graduate was inducted

into the NAIA Hall of Fame in 1993. In 2007 High Point dedicated the Jerry and Kitty Steele Sports Steele Center, which houses athletics offices as well as locker room and academic study hall areas. Washburn played tenWashburn nis at Guilford from 1955-59 under Guilford Hall of Fame coach David Meredith. Washburn won the Old North State Conference doubles championship three of his four seasons, including in 1956 when he teamed with Robert Atlas ‘57. He served as president of the Monogram Club and Men’s Athletic Association in 1959. After leaving Guiford, Washburn continued to play in tennis for 25 years after Guilford in city and state tournaments. He won the 35’s and 45’s High Point City Tournament Championship in 1983. Now retired after a 40-year career with the Morrissette Paper Company, Washburn received the “2 Those Who Care Award” from WFMYTV for his work with the Victory Junction Gang Camp in Randleman. He is a board member for the Victory Junction Gang Camp and recently stepped down as director of First Bank in Troy. Others to be inducted are football player Robert E. Fredrick of Mullica Hill, N.J., and basketball player Laura Haynes Spainhour of Rural Hall,.

On Saturday, East Carolina visits Chapel Hill to take on the Tar Heels. These fierce in-state rivals are set to clash with more than just pride on the line. The winner can take a big step forward in head-tohead recruiting battles and of course, neither wants to lose to the other. And the rivalries just keep on coming with Sunday’s Panthers-Falcons slugfest in Atlanta. These NFC South division roommates have a history of heated contests. The Panthers

need a win to ease the pain from last week’s shellacking at the hands of the Eagles. A Carolina loss would leave the Panthers two games back of the Falcons. That’s not a pretty scenario to face two weeks into the season. So get out to the stadium if you can tonight and Saturday, then kick back with that remote and enjoy the NFL showdown on Sunday. It promises to be quite a weekend!

NATIONWIDE Next race: Dover 200, Sept. 26, Dover International Speedway, Dover, Del. Last week: Carl Edwards took the lead from Kevin Harvick on pit road with 24 laps to go, then held off Harvick at Richmond for his fourth victory of the season.

f a television show called “Can You Believe This” existed, one of the key circumstances surrounding High Point University’s volleyball team this season would merit a segment. Not in a weird “Twilight Zone” way. Just the strange way in which the one key piece fell nicely into coach Jason Oliver’s lap. Here’s the scenario. New coach takes first job as head coach because he likes commitment shown to volleyball by school president and athletics director. New coach learns last spring that a knee injury is going to sideline his most talented player. On same day coach gets that news, fax is put on his desk that another school is dropping volleyball and one of its players looking for a new school is someone he coached on a club team while she was in high school. Coach starts recruitment process and lands player within a month. New player makes immediate impact as team gets off to above .500 start. The player lost was Audie Gonzales, who ranked seventh in the Big South in kills per game, had 43 service aces and six matches with 20 or more digs last season. The new player is junior outside hitter Megan Smith, who is from the Dayton area and was the club player coached by Oliver while he was an assistant coach at the University of Dayton. Smith made an immediate impact. Going into today’s noon match against N.C. State at UNC Greensboro, she is first on the club with 165 kills and ranks second with 114 digs. She’s earned a Big South Conference player of the week award. Oliver calls the turn of events that led to Smith coming to HPU “a Zen moment where the stars and planets all align.” He won’t say that the Panthers wouldn’t be as good as the 7-5 mark at this point without Smith, who had 159 digs and 28 service aces last season at

Maine, the school that dropped its program. But he will say that it would have been SPORTS tougher to get there Greer without her. Smith “Without ■■■ Audie and Megan, it would be a tough season for us,” Oliver, who came to HPU from the University of Maryland, said. “Adding Megan to the mix helped us with our volleyball IQ. She has been great as a stabilizing force. Without her, we’d be struggling a lot more. “Megan has a wellrounded game. She knows where the open spots are on the floor and where to put her body when it comes to blocking. Whatever you tell her, she can go out there and do it, and she’s strong enough to do it against better players.” One struggle that Smith helped ease was the transition to Oliver’s system. “She did help with the learning curve because she understands the system and the technique,” Oliver said. “It was less severe for her. It helped establish some credibility for the coaching staff because here Megan comes in, and she’s a top player on the team who can give you vision where we are going with things. I was pleased with the way the team accepted her and how the team chemistry is right now.” With defense and hardnosed play being strengths for the Panthers, Smith is just one of four players Oliver cites as playing key roles. The others are libero Julie Hershkowitz, setter Holly Fong and hitter Molly Barlow. Fong, who has 412 assists and 106 digs, is the team’s quarterback. “Holly is the biggest key to this thing running the right way,” Oliver said. “When her head’s on straight, she can make plays like you wouldn’t believe. Getting her going and getting the ball to the

right people is key for us.” Oliver said Barlow, a freshman, is the type of gritty player that fits into the system. She has 115 digs and 65 kills. “She brings intensity and focus, which is unusual for freshmen,” Oliver explained. “She has that killer instinct in her brain although she is a smaller, less physical player.” Hershkowitz heads the defense and has 210 digs – including a personal-best 48 in a win against UNCG on Monday. Stephanie Wallin and Anna Lott, a pair of 6-foot2 players, provide power at the net. Wallin owns 111 kills and 29 blocks, while Lott has delivered 101 kills and 20 blocks. “When Stephanie is on, our offense is on as well,” Oliver said. “Anna has the ability to change a match.” Oliver said that the Panthers have met expectations with the 7-5 record. “That’s where I thought we would be,” Oliver said. “We had disappointing losses to Davidson and N.C. Central, but I think that was the result of a young team still trying to get comfortable with a new system. And then we’ve had the big wins against Campbell and UNC Charlotte.” Oliver thinks today’s game against N.C. State will give him a barometer of how the Panthers may fare in the Big South, because the Wolfpack lost to UNC Asheville and defeated Charleston Southern. HPU was picked fourth in the Big South preseason poll. The Panthers begin conference play Thursday at home against Coastal Carolina. “Liberty had a great team last year and is expected to this season,” Oliver said. “Coastal returns everybody. Winthrop, Asheville and ourselves – we’re all right there. ... It’s going to be competitive and we’re looking forward to contending for a regular-season and conference championship.” gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3519

Still, the Blue Comets have been in every game this fall and bounced back from a 28-8 deficit to have a shot at beating ER last week before a late fumble. Dmitri Faglier rushed for 247 yards against the Wildcats. The running game has powered Trinity all year, with quarterback Rhyne Kivett at 97 yards per game, Angelo Dunn at 73 and Kris Frazier and Mario McInnis each coming in at more than 30 yards per game in the diverse attack. Perhaps most remarkable about the Bulldogs this season, however, is a defense that has allowed more than one touchdown just once â&#x20AC;&#x201C; in last weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s blowout. Last season, Trinity surrendered an average of 20 points per game â&#x20AC;&#x201C; leading to a 4-8 record.

Dylan Gallimore continues to spark the Eagles as one of only three area rushers topping 100 yards per game, and QB/kicker Taylor Warren has avoided mistakes to help his team pull out the close games. Wheatmore also got nice rushing efforts from Josh Rickerts and QB Van Peedin last week, as the 26 points against East Montgomery ended a string of two shutouts. Coach Eugene Everhart said his Warriors also performed better defensively last week â&#x20AC;&#x201C; despite the 53 points â&#x20AC;&#x201C; but that a string of solid plays would be undermined by one or two lapses leading to big gains for the Eagles.

Chipper may retire after 2010 season ATLANTA (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A drop of almost 100 points from his 2008 NL-leading batting average has Chipper Jones wondering if the end of his career is near. Jones, 37, hit a careerbest .364 last year, his third straight season over .320. But he has fallen to .269 this year and is hitting only .229 since June 9, when his average peaked at .335. The three-month slump is a startling development for the career .308 hitter. He signed a threeyear, $42-million contract extension in March that runs through 2012, but says he may retire if he canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t reclaim his hitting stroke in 2010. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If I back up this year with the same kind of

year next year, I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to play the game,â&#x20AC;? Jones told The Associated Press. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The game is not fun to me when Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not playing up to my standards. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I just feel like there are other things Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d rather be doing.

Stocks end three-day rally NEW YORK (AP) – A surprise drop in unemployment claims couldn’t fuel another day of gains for the stock market. Stocks posted modest losses in quiet trading Thursday after a three-day advance. Traders found little in the weekly employment data, or in reports on housing and manufacturing, to provide new encouragement about an economic recovery. Stocks surrendered early gains around midday and the Dow Jones industrial average ended with a loss of 8 points. Lackluster earnings reports from FedEx Corp. and Oracle Corp. added to investors’ caution. The stock market has risen in eight of the past 10 days and hopes for a recovery have propelled the Standard & Poor’s 500 index up 57.5 percent from a 12-year low in early March. The Dow Jones indus-

trial average fell 7.79, or 0.1 percent, to 9,783.92. On Wednesday, the Dow jumped 108 points to a high for the year. The S&P 500 index fell 3.27, or 0.3 percent, to 1,065.49, and the Nasdaq composite index fell 6.40, or 0.3 percent, to 2,126.75. Kleintop is encouraged that some of the market’s recent gains have been moderate and that investors remain skeptical. The counterintuitive logic of Wall Street would argue that all the predictions of a slide could keep the rally going. “It’s been kind of a steady grind over time bringing investors kind of kicking and screaming back into this market,” he said. Bond prices jumped, pushing yields lower. The yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury note fell to 3.39 percent from 3.48 percent late Wednesday.

months. And jobless claims remain far above the levels associated with a healthy economy. Even as the housing industry begins to recover from its worst downturn in decades, a glut of unsold homes and record levels of home foreclosures are weighing on the industry. Construction of multifamily homes and apartments rose 1.5 percent to an annual rate of 598,000 units, the highest level since November, the Commerce Department said Thursday.

That was slightly lower than the 600,000-unit pace economists had expected. And it remains more than 70 percent below the peak rate hit in 2006. The tentative improvements in housing are most likely a rebound “from unsustainably weak results ... reinforced by a temporary boost to demand” from the $8,000 first-time homebuyer tax credit that ends Dec. 1, Joshua Shapiro, chief economist at MFR Inc., wrote in a note to clients. “Gains from here on will

probably be much more difficult to achieve,” due to high unemployment, tight credit and a large number of new and existing homes already on the market, he said. Applications for building permits, a gauge of future activity, rose a 2.7 percent in August to an annual rate of 579,000 units, slightly below the 580,000 level that had been forecast. Permits for single-family homes dipped 0.2 percent but rose for multifamily units by 15.8 percent.

FTC considers ban on loan scams modifications that rarely, if ever, pay off. “If you are concerned about keeping your home, avoid any company that asks you for a large fee in advance. That is a real red flag,” said Jon Leibowitz, chairman of the FTC. Such upfront fees are already prohibited in 20 states. His comments came as his agency announced it filed civil charges against

two companies, San Diegobased Nations Housing Modification Center and Infinity Group Services of Orange County, Calif. The government accused both companies of charging homeowners large fees for assistance in working with their lenders, but doing “little or nothing” to actually help borrowers. Leibowitz said the FTC was also considering re-

WASHINGTON (AP) – The head of the Federal Trade Commission said Thursday the agency is considering banning upfront payments to companies that advertise help for borrowers who are in trouble on their home loans. Government officials say scammers seeking to take advantage of borrowers in danger of default often charge upfront fees of $1,000 to $3,000 for help with loan

WASHINGTON (AP) – Housing construction rose in August and the number of newly laid-off workers seeking unemployment aid fell unexpectedly last week, adding to signs the recession has ended. Still, the reports suggested a slow and fragile economic recovery. In part, that’s because the increased housing starts were due solely to a surge in construction of apartment buildings – while the much larger single-family homes sector fell for the first time in six

Americans’ net worth grows by $2 trillion WASHINGTON – American households saw their wealth increase this spring for the first time in nearly two years as the waning recession breathed new life into stock portfolios and home values. The Federal Reserve says household net worth grew by $2 trillion to $53.1 trillion in the April-toJune quarter. Net worth, or the value of assets such as homes, checking accounts and investments minus debts like mortgages and credit cards, rose by nearly 4 percent from the first quarter, the Federal Reserve says.

Discover Financial’s profit more than triples CHARLOTTE – Discover Financial Services said Thursday it more than tripled its profit in the fiscal third quarter, helped by a payment from a lawsuit settlement. Even without the gain from the lawsuit settlement, the credit card lender would have been profitable, despite rising defaults and delinquencies and falling card sales volume. Nearly all lenders are seeing more customers stop making their monthly payments as the economy falters and unemployment rises.

Panel begins inquiry into financial meltdown WASHINGTON – The chairman of a new congressionally appointed panel has promised a no-holds barred investigation into last year’s devastating U.S. economic collapse. The inquiry will look into whether any of the biggest U.S. financial firms and the regulators in charge of monitoring them were guilty of criminal misconduct. Phil Angelides was appointed this year by Democrats to lead the 10-member Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission. ENTERPRISE NEWS SERVICE REPORTS

AMR boosts cash coffers ATLANTA (AP) – American Airlines’ parent company is making a potentially risky move in taking on significant new debt at a time when revenues are being hammered, but the $2.9 billion in fresh financing and flight schedule changes announced Thursday should quiet concerns – for now – that it is in danger of a cash crunch and a bankruptcy filing. Passengers will see big changes from the nation’s second-largest airline, including increased flying in Chicago, New York, Los Angeles, Dallas-Fort Worth and Miami, but fewer flights in Raleigh/Durham, North

Carolina and St. Louis, where American is giving up major ground to Southwest Airlines. AMR Corp. said the extra funding it has received includes $1 billion in cash from an advance sale of frequent flyer miles to Citigroup. The company is treating that money as a loan. The Fort Worth, Texas, company said it also has received $1.6 billion in sale-leaseback financing commitments from GE Capital Aviation Services, a unit of General Electric Co., and $280 million in cash in a loan from GE Capital Aviation Services secured by aircraft.

Union returns to AFL-CIO PITTSBURGH (AP) – One of the unions that left the AFL-CIO in a bitter dispute that split the labor movement four years ago is coming back to the labor federation. The union of hotel, restaurant and clothing workers known as UNITE HERE is bringing its 265,000 members back a day after Richard Trumka became the newest AFL-CIO president. UNITE HERE president John Wilhelm made the announcement on the

final day of the federation’s convention. UNITE HERE and several other unions departed in 2005 after claiming there was too much emphasis on politics and not enough on organizing new members. Led by Service Employees International Union president Andy Stern, the breakaway unions formed the rival Change to Win federation. Some of the other unions that left, including the Laborers and Food Workers unions, have also been in discussions to return.

Oil edges higher on economic data

A FedEx truck leaves a distribution center in Charlotte in this July photograph.

FedEx quarterly profit falls NEW YORK (AP) – FedEx Corp. said Thursday it sees signs of improvement in the global economy as international shipments pick up, but warned its profit will remain weak at least through the end of the year. The world’s secondlargest package delivery company, considered a bellwether of economic health, said fiscal 2010 first-quarter earnings fell 53 percent – matching its prediction released last week. It also reiterated a fiscal second-quarter view that implies a modest uptick in worldwide economic activity.

DILBERT

FedEx indicated it might start beefing up schedules for flight crew and hourly personnel as package volume improves, but it doesn’t expect that to happen soon. It also doesn’t expect to start adding back employees it cut during the worst of the downturn in the near future. Over the last year, the company has laid off workers and cut wages for thousands of employees to cut costs. The Memphis, Tenn.based company reported earnings of $181 million, or 58 cents per share for the quarter ended in August, compared with $384

million, or $1.23 per share, a year ago. Revenue fell 20 percent to about $8 billion. Analysts predicted profit of 58 cents per share on revenue of $8.24 billion. In late July its larger rival – UPS Inc. – said its second-quarter profit sank 49 percent and warned that its near-term outlook probably wouldn’t be any better. FedEx said sales are still hurt by the soft economy, as people ship slower and less often. Lower fuel costs also meant FedEx collected lower fuel surcharges – fees passed on to customers based on the price of fuel.

NEW YORK – Oil prices briefly jumped above $73 a barrel Thursday after the government released jobs and housing data that suggested a slight economic recovery. Energy prices gave up some of those early gains, however, because it appears the recovery could be protracted. That would mean less demand for energy in the near term and increased the chance of low-priced gasoline and heating gas for some time. Benchmark crude for October delivery added 49 cents to $73 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange.

Europe stocks gain on recovery hopes LONDON – European stocks moved ahead with their rally Thursday on hopes of economic recovery, while Wall Street was hard pressed to make any gains. Germany’s DAX closed up 0.5 percent at 5,731.14, Britain’s FTSE 100 gained 0.8 percent to 5,163.95 and France’s CAC-40 rose 0.6 percent to 3,835.27. Asian markets made strong gains, but U.S. indexes were unable to maintain the previous day’s momentum. The Dow Jones industrial average was up 0.01 percent at 9,793.07 and the Standard & Poor’s 500 index traded down 0.2 percent at 1,066.93. ENTERPRISE NEWS SERVICE REPORTS

By The Spirit Community Praise Dancers of High Point dance to hip-hop praise music.

By The Spirit High Point dancers lend their feet to help at-risk youths BY JIMMY TOMLIN ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

High Point dance troupe that has performed often in the Triad will take the stage in Wilson this weekend to benefit a program for at-risk youths. By The Spirit Community Praise Dancers, featuring 14 young dancers from across the Triad, will perform Saturday as the opening act before a play titled “Spare the Rod, Spoil the Child.” Proceeds from the performances will benefit Wilson’s Project Excel program, a community-based alternative to school suspension. “We’re doing this for Project Excel because we like to perform at community events where we can help others,” says Karen Atkinson of High Point, who

founded By The Spirit with her husband, Kimion, in July 2007. The mission of the troupe, she says, is to praise God through dance. “We dance to a wide range of

‘Our main goal is to encourage and uplift.’ Karen Atkinson By the Spirit co-founder spiritual worship music,” Atkinson says. “Some of the music is just worship-type music, and some of it is more like hip-hop praise, to grab the attention of the younger crowd, but it’s all spiritual worship, encouraging and uplifting.”

This weekend, for example, By The Spirit will perform worship dances to two well-known gospel artists’ songs – Kurt Carr’s “Set the Atmosphere” and Kirk Franklin’s “Awesome God.” “Our main goal is to encourage and uplift,” Atkinson says. “A lot of times people in the audience might be going through some tough things in their life, and sometimes just a song or watching these kids dance can really change things.” By The Spirit consists of 14 dancers, ranging in age from 5 to 17, from High Point, Thomasville, Jamestown and Greensboro. The troupe has performed at such community events as March of Dimes walks, the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure, and productions at the High Point Theatre.

According to Atkinson, she and her daughter – 15-year-old Shannon, who is one of the dancers – do most of the group’s choreography, but the other dancers sometimes contribute, too. “What usually happens is the Lord gives me a song and kind of shows me how to put the whole thing together,” she says. “My daughter helps me, and sometimes maybe the kids will suggest ‘What about this?’ or ‘What about that?,’ and we all kind of put it together. But the original vision of the song is what God gives me.” Atkinson says the ministry has been especially effective among other young people. “It shows them they can be involved in something positive,” she says. jtomlin@hpe.com | 888-3579

Lauren elevates work clothes to highest level BY SAMANTHA CRITCHELL AP FASHION WRITER

Model wears Ralph Lauren metallic bluelamé “overall” gown Thursday in New York.

EW YORK – Basic means something else when you’re Ralph Lauren. It means silver-sequined slashed jeans, organza “work-shirt” dresses and even a metallic blue-lamé gown with all the trademark details of coveralls. Lauren, who embodies the classic American sportswear look, said he wanted to craft spring-season clothes at New York Fashion Week that reflected the “resilient spirit” of the nation – and its work ethic. He seemed keenly aware of how the economy has beaten up on the fashion industry, especially the luxury market where his runway collection operates. Lauren’s solutions? Dig in, then dig out. “Hard times seem to sharpen our capacity for idealism and our optimism that tomorrow will be a better day,” he explained in his notes. “I am

inspired by the character of the worker, the farmer, the cowboy, the pioneer women of the prairies living authentically through challenging times.” The simplest looks on the catwalk, which was lined

‘I am inspired by the character of the worker, the farmer, the cowboy, the pioneer women of the prairies...’ Ralph Lauren Fashion designer with the Lauren clan and Janet Jackson, were the floral dresses that featured sweet, delicate floral prints reminiscent of those farm wives wore in the 1930s. Denim isn’t unusual in the Lauren collection and it’s what the designer himself

seems most comfortable in, but it was more dominant than usual, with silhouettes ranging from a tailored, suit-style jacket to rolled-ankle work jeans. Lauren wore jeans and a cowboy belt to take his bow to the sounds of Bob Dylan’s “Like a Rolling Stone.” The blue hues of denim then transitioned into silk charmeuse, including a chic ombre outfit with a work shirt and carpenter pants – tabs and all. The banker is also a central figure in the picture Lauren painted, and surely the pinstripe pantsuits were inspired by them. The real highlights were the outfits that somehow seamlessly mixed the two worlds of luxury and the everywoman: a pink gauze gown with silver embroidery worn with an indigo-colored striped jacket and a sheer blue tulle tunic – also embroidered – worn over jeans. Asked if she had a favorite look, Jackson graciously answered, “I love them all.”

Brenner Children’s Hospital has closed the sixth floor (intensive care units) to visitors under the age of 18 – including siblings – and is asking parents not to bring their children to visit patients at the children’s hospital this flu season. “We are working hard to prevent the spread of flu to children who are already sick and hospitalized,” said Dr. Jon S. Abramson, pediatric infectious disease specialist and chair of pediatrics at the children’s hospital. No one under the age of 18 is allowed on the sixth floor of Brenner Children’s Hospital including: the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) and the intermediate care nursery, the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU), the pediatric intermediate care unit, the sixth floor pediatric unit and the waiting rooms. The NICU and Intermediate Care nursery are restricted to parents or primary caregivers only. “This includes siblings of our patients,” said Maureen Sintich, interim vice president of the children’s hospital and vice president for operations, chief nursing officer. “We are asking that all parents make other childcare arrangements for their children. This policy is to protect the health of our patients and staff.” The flu visitation policy is effective today. For more information about the H1N1 flu, visit brennerchildrens.org.

“I heard you told Cy he has half a brain,” I said to Wendy, my club’s feminist.

Cy shifted to a club, and South won in dummy, lost to the ace of trumps, won the next club, drew trumps and led a diamond. Cy took his ace, and declarer took the rest, making four.

To prevent that, Cy continues with the ace of diamonds at Trick Two and then a third diamond. When South wins and leads a trump, Cy wins and leads a fourth diamond, letting Wendy

LIFE&STYLE THE HIGH POINT ENTERPRISE FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 18, 2009 www.hpe.com

Some words can hurt, some words can heal due to the existence of these pervasive tech tools. But, in our everyday lives, DAD’S gossip is destrucPOINT tive. You OF VIEW may think it’s fun to Bruce browse the Sallan tabloids at ■■■ your local newsstand or while in line at the supermarket, but private gossip among family and friends is what I’m referring to. What we say or write can hurt or heal as is so powerfully written in Rabbi Joseph Telushkin’s book on the subject, called “Words That Hurt, Words That Heal.” He cites a prohibition about gossip called “Lashon Hara,” which literally means “the evil tongue.” It essentially outlaws gossip, true or false, about others or even one’s self. The thinking is so basic. Once you say something, especially if it’s not true, and it’s gone the “telephone game” route, it is impossible

to take it back. Even if it was said as a joke, the damage is forever. Further, an apology to the victim won’t repair the potential damage to the collective circle of friends and acquaintances. I’m reminded of an incident that took place at one of my men’s group weekends. We often gather in circles and clear with each other – our term for expressing our negative feelings. At one of these circles, one man wanted to clear with another and called him into the circle. In front of the whole group, he fully disparaged the other man over a business dispute. The hurt displayed on the other man’s face was incalculable, and there was no way for the rest of us to know what was true and what wasn’t. But the doubt was placed there without any chance for the truth to be known. I’ve never forgotten that day, as we were all so stunned that we didn’t react fast enough to stop it. The man that was disparaged was so embarrassed (and

I suppose hurt) that soon afterward, even though he was long a leader within our men’s circle, he dropped out completely and severed relationships with all of us. I still feel that was an over-reaction, but it demonstrates the power of words. I cannot look at the man who did this without remembering his intemperate behavior. Our kids do this without even thinking a second about it. My teen was the subject of some bad-mouthing that caused him to leave a whole group of friends and start new relationships. The things that were said about him were silly, untrue and malicious, but that seemed to make no difference to those who heard them. Rather than questioning the comments, or defending my son, the other kids laughed and thought it funny. My son, on the other hand, just like my other friend in the men’s circle, chose to leave rather than endure the jokes and lies, at his expense. Think about when

Disney Wonder cruise ship going to Alaska CELEBRATION, Fla. (AP) – Disney Cruise Line is offering cruises to Alaska for the first time in 2011. The Disney Wonder ship will make 18 sevennight sailings to Alaska beginning May 3, 2011, with the last ship departing Aug. 30. The ship will depart from its new home port in Vancouver, B.C., and travel through Tracy Arm in Southeast Alaska, with stops in Skagway, Juneau and Ketchikan. The news of Disney’s foray into the Alaska cruise market is a bright spot in an otherwise down year for tourism in the state. Experts say Alaska’s tourism industry is flat and sliding downward.

They predict that next year Alaska will see 150,000 fewer cruise ship passengers. Touring the colder climes of Alaska is requiring some changes to the ship. The Disney Wonder will be outfitted with a 2,500-square-foot cafe with floor-to-ceiling curved glass windows where guests can watch for wildlife and take in the scenery. Rates start at $939 per person for a standard inside stateroom, based on double occupancy. Excursions for wildlife tours and other onshore activities like fishing or panning for gold are additional. Before and after the 2011 summer season in Alaska, the Disney Wonder will

sail seven-night Mexican Riviera cruises from the Port of Los Angeles to Cabo San Lucas, Mazatlan and Puerto Vallarta. Rates for the seven-night itinerary start at $639 per person for a standard inside stateroom, based on double occupancy. Disney’s other ship, the Disney Magic, will sail 10- and 11-night Mediterranean itineraries for the 2011 season, starting May 28 departing from Barcelona with stops elsewhere in Spain in addition to Italy, France, Tunisia, Malta and Corsica. Rates for the Mediterranean cruises start at $1,739 per person for a standard inside stateroom, based on double occupancy. Additional guests after

the first two occupants of any stateroom sail for reduced rates. Disney’s 2011 cruises can be booked starting Sept. 28. Details at www. disneycruise.com or call Disney Cruise Line at (888) 325-2500.

and if you do this. I have a bad habit of often joking at another’s expense. I like to think it’s done with affection, but is it? Men tend to do this much more than women. Guys often will put each other down as a way of actually expressing their affection. For instance, a man might say to his friend “You are one ugly dude” while punching him in the shoulder. In a more classic vein, there’s Don Rickles to Frank Sinatra (about his hairpiece); “All that’s missing from that thing is the word ‘Welcome!’” Rickles’ whole career was based around insults. Most of the recipients of his humor were indeed his friends. Another classic comedian who relied on this sort of humor was Groucho Marx saying, for instance, “I never forget a face, but in your case I’ll be glad to make an exception.” This is a definite case

of gender differences. Can you imagine a woman saying to another woman friend, “You sure look ugly today,” or “Boy, that wig is so obvious,” or even worse, “Honey, you are sure looking fat”? A man might say the same thing to a friend, with a smirk and a wink, and all would be fine. Or would it? Laughter aside, my point is simple and echoes the passion about this issue that Rabbi Telushkin so eloquently writes in his book. Stop it. It’s not funny. And, it hurts.

ost of us gossip without giving it any thought. Yet, its effects can be so damaging and full of impact. Our kids face this sort of thing in high school in ways we couldn’t have imagined long ago. With the advent of instant communications, whether it is instant messaging, tweeting or immediate photos and videos, the ability to communicate to a wide swatch of people is available to everyone. I used to think Polaroid cameras were pretty cool. So, when your kid is captured doing something embarrassing on someone’s phone video, it appears that evening on YouTube. When a kid chooses to expose him or herself via these sorts of instant means, it is done without any cost or time even to reflect on that decision. When that’s done, it’s “out there” forever. I think this all comes with a high cost. The benefits are good, on occasion, as with the recent election backlash in Iran, where the government couldn’t shut down outside communication
