BY PAM HAYNESENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

ARCHDALE – When Hur-ricane Katrina hit the Gulf Coast five years ago, Ed Sartin saw there were no emergency vehicles being produced that were capable of treating patients on-site in the middle of a mass crisis.

Now, when a storm like Hurricane Earl threatens coastal towns, vehicles pro-duced in Sartin’s own facility in Archdale rush to the scene.

Five medi-cal ambu-lance and evacuation buses, as they’re for-mally called, rolled into Sar-tin Services on Old Menden-hall Road on Thursday for routine checks and prepara-tions as Hurricane Earl ap-proached the North Carolina coast.

Sartin, owner and founder of the company, began pro-ducing the buses in 2006. He refers to them as “emergency

rooms on wheels,” and he said they’ve filled a void in the bus industry.

“It’s a real niche market,” he said. “We’ve seen a huge increase in demand for them. We just had an order from Chicago (Wednesday) for six of the buses.”

To create the vehicles, the company, a manufacturer and installer of specialty vehicle products, renovates school buses to resemble the inside of a medical facil-ity. Stretchers that attach to the walls like bunk beds line the interior, which also is equipped with a huge stock of

medical supplies and a germ- and virus-resistant floor. Ox-ygen tanks and a generator capable of powering the bus for days at a time are stored in the cargo area.

“If this thing is in a disaster site, we could run it and pow-er up four other things at the same time,” he said about the capability of the generators. “It’s really helpful to (emer-gency services personnel).”

Sartin said he became pas-sionate about making the vehi-cles after reading about a group of nursing home residents on the Gulf Coast who died during Hurricane Katrina because

they weren’t evacuated before the storm hit.

“I said to myself, ‘We can figure out a way to get those people out on time if it hap-pens again,’” he said.

Buses from Guilford County, Wake County, Mecklenberg County and New Hampshire were among the ones serviced Thursday as their medical teams prepared to deploy to areas at risk of being hit by Hurricane Earl. The company performs the routine service checks at the beginning of ev-ery hurricane season.

“If any of those storms hit land, the government or FEMA could call them up,” he said about the buses.

Storm weakens,remains powerful

BY MIKE BAKERASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER

BUXTON – The last ferry left for the mainland and coastal residents hunkered down at home as Hurricane Earl closed in with 110 mph winds Thursday on North Carolina’s dangerously ex-posed Outer Banks, the fi rst and potentially most de-structive stop on the storm’s projected journey up the Eastern Seaboard.

The first bands of heavy rain hit the long ribbon of bar-rier islands Thursday night. The downpours started in several bursts as the storm’s rain shield whirled into the southeasternmost tip of the Outer Banks.

Hurricane Earl’s winds were slowing, from 140 mph early Thursday to 110 mph, Category 2 strength, by 8 p.m. But forecasters warned

Davidson seeks funds for new middle schoolBY DARRICK IGNASIAK

ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

DAVIDSON COUNTY – Davidson County commissioners will ap-ply for additional federal stimulus funds to build a new middle school in the northern part of the county.

Commissioners voted unani-mously to apply for the low-inter-est Qualifi ed School Construction Bonds that were authorized by the federal government through the American Recovery and Rein-vestment Act. With $50 million re-maining in QSCB, the county had between Sept. 1 and Sept. 8 to ap-ply. Davidson County could be eli-

gible for up to $10 million in federal stimulus bond funds, according to Assistant County Manager Zeb Hanner Jr.

“They are interest-free bonds,” Hanner told commissioners Thurs-day.

Commissioner Billy Joe Kepley called the potential of the county receiving additional bond money a “godsend.” If the county receives the bond money, the deadline for bond issuance was originally set for Dec. 31, 2010. Hanner said the he learned through the N.C. Depart-ment of Public Instruction that un-der extenuating circumstances, the county could get an extension.

“I think it gives us another op-tion for funding,” Commissioner Fred McClure said. “I don’t have a problem with it.”

According to Hanner, David-son County already has been ap-propriated $3 million in QSCB for construction of the middle school. Estimates have the cost of a new middle school between $16 million to $24 million. Hanner said staff will be reviewing how the entire project could be fi nanced, either through the general fund or bor-rowing money, before a proposal is submitted to commissioners.

“I am personally committed to building that school because we

are very overcrowded up there,” said Max Walser, chairman of the Davidson County Board of Com-missioners. “I think everybody is.”

Serving the Ledford/North school districts, the 137,000-square-foot school is proposed to be located on Midway School Road near the Hoy Long Road intersection. Com-missioners agreed to buy 133 acres in April at a price of $2.35 million for a new middle and high school. The Davidson County Board of Education last month approved a preliminary design and fl oor plans for the new middle school.


City to inspect fi re stations for moldBY PAT KIMBROUGH


HIGH POINT – All city fi re stations will be checked after what offi cials termed minor mold problems were recently discovered at one facility.

Fire Station 12 at 4538 Barrow Road was closed Aug. 27 after two forms of mold were confi rmed on the dormi-tory side of the building, according to the city. The station’s personnel have been assigned to other loca-tions while crews clean the facility and prepare it to re-open, possibly in the coming days.

Mold growth in buildings can oc-cur in areas where heat and high hu-

midity combine with moisture when air conditioning temperatures are lowered. Mold can pose health haz-ards, such as upper respiratory con-gestion, coughing and headaches.

Two other fi re stations were checked in response to complaints about possible mold there, but noth-ing was found. The remaining 11 sta-tions will also be evaluated for the presence of mold.

“I asked (city offi cials) to investi-gate each of our other fi re stations for possible mold problems, just to be sure,” said City Manager Strib Boynton. “A third party came in and also looked at it. Sometimes a differ-ent set of eyes might be helpful. They advised us we’re doing everything we could do.”

Contractors began cleaning up the Barrow Road station last weekend, and have replaced fl exible air ducts and acoustic ceiling tiles. Surface cleaning of the entire area was per-formed and air scrubbers were used to treat the air in that part of the sta-tion. The results of air and surface samples could be known today, and

if they are negative, the station could then be re-opened.

One of the station’s ladder trucks was taken out of service after the clos-ing last weekend. It was put back in service at station 10 on Whites Mill Road on Monday.

The other facilities checked so far include station 13 at 2414 Ambassa-dor Court, where stained ceiling tile was reported. Crews found rusted air vents in a shower, which will be replaced with a different kind of vent for that space. Air samples have been taken but no evidence of mold had been reported as of Thursday.

Woman gives birth in vehicle againBETHEL, Ohio (AP)

– For a second time, an Ohio woman has given birth to a baby who couldn’t wait and ar-rived on the drive to the hospital.

Christina Schuler’s 8-pound, 11-ounce son was born Tuesday in the front seat of the family’s

pickup truck. Her hus-band pulled over less than a mile from their hospital in southwest Ohio’s Clermont Coun-ty.

The woman from Bethel says her labor was even shorter than it was in December 2006, when she gave birth to

her son, Ethan, in a car.The Schulers also have

one other child. The fa-ther, Nathan Schuler, says if the couple has any more children, they’ll have to leave for the hospital a lot earlier.

They haven’t decided on a name yet for the new baby.

Arson suspected in fi re that damages

historic millMCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE

NEWS SERVICE

F R A N K L I N V I L L E – Fire gutted a large por-tion of a historic mill Thursday morning, leav-ing preservationists won-dering what their next step will be.

It’s believed the fi re was the result of arson.

Franklinville Fire Chief Kyle Dixon, asked if it was set, responded, “Arson? Oh yeah. There’s no power to the building. Investigators are here. Hopefully, they’ll fi nd out what happened.”

Dixon said the call came in from the 911 Call Cen-ter in Asheboro at about 4 a.m. Thursday.

“It was totally involved except for the section (planned as a museum) with about $30,000 worth of equipment. We’re try-ing to save that.

”It was a pretty impres-sive fi re,“ Dixon said.

One problem fi refi ght-ers faced was fi ndingenough water to throw onthe blaze. Dixon said theydrained the town’s watersytem of approximately300,000 gallons within thefi rst hour and a half. Thenthey depended on tankertrucks from all over thecounty to bring in waterfrom Asheboro.

”I wouldn’t be sur-prised if we use 800,000 or900,000 gallons,“ he said.

Crews and trucks wereat the site from Eastside,Climax, Ulah, Staley,Seagrove, Westside,Tabernacle and Liberty.Asheboro sent water tothe scene.

Cindy Wilkins, a vol-unteer with the Conser-vancy, said plans are todevelop a ”living mu-seum with functioningequipment. It’s southerntextile history. There’sso much history here.So many people workedhere.“

that it remained pow-erful, with hurricane-force winds of 74 mph or more extending 70 miles from its center and tropical storm-force winds of at least 35 mph reaching more than 200 miles out.

National Weather Ser-vice meteorologist Hal Austin said the eye of the hurricane was expected to get as close as 55 miles east of the Outer Banks about 2 a.m. Friday. The coast is expected to be lashed by hurricane-

force winds for a couple of hours.

Earl’s arrival could mark the start of at least 24 hours of stormy, windy weather along the East Coast. During its march up the Atlantic, it could snarl travelers’ La-bor Day weekend plans and strike a second force-ful blow to the vacation homes and cottages on Long Island, Nantucket Island and Cape Cod.

It was unclear exactly how close Earl’s center and its strongest winds

would get to land. But Federal Emergency Man-agement Agency Admin-istrator Craig Fugate said people shouldn’t wait for the next forecast to act.

“This is a day of action. Conditions are going to deteriorate rapidly,” he said.

Shelters were open in inland North Carolina, and offi cials on Nantuck-et Island, Mass., planned to set up a shelter at a high school on Friday. North Carolina shut

down ferry service be-tween the Outer Banks and the mainland. Boats were being pulled from the water in the North-east, and lobstermen in Maine set their traps out in deeper water to protect them.

Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick and Rhode Island Gov. Don-ald Carcieri declared a state of emergency. Similar declarations have also made in North Carolina, Virginia and Maryland.

Hotel becomes hostel for those riding out storm

BUXTON (AP) – A two-story Com-fort Inn has become a makeshift hurricane hostel on North Caro-lina’s Outer Banks for those who want to stay close to their homes but know they need better shelter from the outslaught of Earl.

Billy Parker, 55, chose to stay so he could keep an eye on his trea-sured property, but wasn’t taking any chances with his family. He sent his wife, mother-in-law and two daughters to Elizabeth City – two and a half hours away on the mainland. “I don’t want them

here,” Parker said. “I’d fear for their lives.”

Most of the hotel guests said they would rather get trapped on Hat-teras Island than off it and prepared themselves for weeks without con-tact with the outside world. Storm overwash frequently destroys parts of Highway 12 – the only roadway connecting this exposed frontier to the mainland.

Donna Lopez, 38, didn’t think it would be worth the effort to move three kids and three dogs to anoth-er spot hours away when so many

others had safely navigated storms here.

Her children – ages 3, 5 and 10 – played around the parking lot Thursday evening as the storm gathered off the coast. Their stilted home nearby was boarded up for protection, but Lopez didn’t want to take any chances at the house and didn’t want to make the long drive away from the barrier islands when home could be accessible early Fri-day.

“With the kids, it’s just safer to be over here,” she said.

Afghan president: Airstrike killed civiliansKABUL, Afghanistan (AP)

– NATO said an airstrike in north-ern Afghanistan on Thursday killed about a dozen insurgents, but President Hamid Karzai said the victims were campaign work-ers seeking votes in this month’s parliamentary elections.

NATO said its airstrike on a car

in northern Takhar province’s normally quiet Rustaq district killed or wounded as many as 12 insurgents, including a Taliban commander and a local head of an allied insurgent group, the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan, respon-sible for attacks in Kabul and else-where.

However Karzai‚ who repeatedly warns that civilian casualties un-dermine anti-insurgency efforts, said the airstrike had killed 10 campaign workers instead.

“The rationale for the airstrike still needs to be fully investigated,” the president said at a joint news conference in Kabul.

BRIEFS---EU expects China to support Iran sanctions

BEIJING – The Euro-pean Union said Thurs-day it expects China to support tough sanctions against Iran over its suspect nuclear program and not let its companies move into the Middle Eastern country’s mar-ket as European compa-nies pull out.

China has vast en-ergy needs and has large investments in Iran.

Gates: Afghans should lead corruption fi ght

KABUL, Afghanistan – U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates said Thurs-day that while the fi ght against corruption must be led by Afghans, the U.S. is working on new ways to prevent millions of Ameri-can dollars fl owing into the nation from underwriting bribery and graft.

Gates spoke to reporters in the Afghan capital with President Hamid Karzai.

Typhoon kills 4, downs trees, cuts power

SEOUL, South Korea – Typhoon Kompasu struck South Korea on Thursday, killing at least four people and toppling trees, streetlights and scaf-folding in what was called the strongest storm to hit the Seoul area in 15 years.

Powerful gusts knocked over power lines, cutting off electricity to tens of thousands of homes.

Security Council to hold summit on peace

UNITED NATIONS – Turkey is inviting leaders of the 14 other Security Council nations to a summit meeting to strengthen the council’s primary mission.

The mission is main-taining international peace and security in a world of new and com-plex threats.

LAHORE, Pakistan (AP) – Thousands of Shi-ite Muslims, thumping their chests and crying, mourned Thursday at fu-neral prayers for victims of a triple bombing that heaped more tragedy on Pakistan, which is al-ready struggling to cope with devastating fl oods.

The blasts that tar-geted a Shiite ceremo-ny late Wednesday in this eastern city were the fi rst major attacks since fl ood waters tore through the country over the past month, destroying or damaging more than one million homes and prompting a major international

relief effort that contin-ues to struggle with thescale of the destruction.

The Pakistan Talibanclaimed responsibility forthe attacks in a phone call toan AP reporter.

A member of thegroup, who did not givehis name but has previ-ously spoken on behalfof the militants, saidit was in revenge forthe alleged killings byShiites of members of aSunni extremist ally ofthe group, Sipah-e-Sa-haba.

The Obama administra-tion on Wednesday addedthe Pakistani Taliban toits international terrorismblacklist.

Charles Honeycutt (Your View, Aug. 30 “Fox keeps mosque con-troversy brewing for ratings”) is wrong about the New York City mosque controversy! The GOP and Fox News have nothing to do about opposition to the site of the mosque near the World Trade Center site, and Honeycutt’s as-sertion that they do is both shal-low and silly.

Opponents’ relationship to the WTC site is as President Lincoln said of the Gettysburg battlefi eld, “We cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate, we can not hallow this ground. The brave men ... who struggled here, have con-secrated it far above our poor power to add or detract.”

Obviously Honeycutt doesn’t, but many folks around the world recognize that certain symbols would detract from hallowed grounds. For example:

(1) U.S. citizens presently op-pose construction of a casino near the Gettysburg battlefi eld,

(2) Pope Benedict recently stopped construction of a Catho-lic facility near Auschwitz con-centration camps,

(3) The French would not allow

a casino near the World War I Sommme River battlefi eld, and

(4) The Polish would not allow a casino near the World War II Katyn massacre site.

Washington hosted vastly

different events Saturday

Last Saturday gave us two similar, yet very different events in Washington. There was Glenn Beck’s “Restore Honor” event and Al Sharpton’s “more of the same” event.

Joining Beck was the Rev. Mar-tin Luther King’s niece Alveda, who gave a wonderfully inspiring speech. One of his three honor-ees was a Houston minister who was with King 47 years ago. The entire day was upbeat, spiritual and 99.9 percent free of political rhetoric. Even NBC, the Obama Network, estimated the crowd at 300,000.

Later, we had the race hustler Sharpton talking about “us” and “them,” not “we” as with the Beck rally. Sharpton came off as petty, jealous and divisive, traits he likes to assign to, well, Beck! Alveda King even staunchly defended the Beck event against Sharpton’s pettiness when both later appeared with Geraldo.

The media gave us their obligatory “It was mostly a white crowd.” The last time I checked, we were a mostly white country! The fact that it was mostly a white crowd says more about the black community than it says about Beck’s uplifting event. Per-haps they should stop listening to race hustlers who have become wealthy with their politics of ra-cial division while their followers have seen little if any improve-ment in their lives.

I later saw videos of Sharpton’s much smaller event and noticed that most attendees were black, even though blacks comprise only about 13 percent of the country! Perhaps Sharpton rally

attendees should have joined Alveda King and the numer-ous other members of the black clergy that graced Beck’s event!

They could have joined in to sing our national anthem and God Bless America, helped cel-ebrate the bravery and sacrifi ce of our troops and seen that the event raised $5.5 million to send to college the children of our special ops personnel who died in service to this country!

YOUR VIEW---

T he shocking discovery of 72 murdered Hispanic migrants on a ranch just south of the U.S. border should be a wakeup call to

all Americans that the security of our beloved nation begins at home.

Here in Arizona, we have seen fi rsthand the bloody consequences of the crime and violence being imported by criminal aliens across our borders. Peaceful Phoenix has been transformed into the kidnapping capital of America.

A cadre of dedicated state and local offi cials has attempted to quell the violence. The result has been to watch these local leaders be sued, investigated and harassed by the police powers of the Obama administration.

When will this insanity end?The migration of farm workers in the 1950s

and 1960s was transformed into a migration of construction workers, maids and restaurant workers in the 1970s and 1980s. But the character of the immigration has changed again, and we ignore these changes at our peril.

Criminal gangs now control the border. Drugs, human traffi cking, robbery, extortion and smuggling are profi table motivators escalating violence on both sides of the border.

Until the borderlands of the American South-west are policed and under the control of au-thorities, these inexplicably brutal conditions will persist. The drug cartels must be destroyed, and the only way to accomplish this is with serious intervention, manpower and high-tech weaponry.

Obama and his minions ignore the brutality, the pain, the suffering and the long-term conse-quences of allowing these gangs safe haven in the hopes of scoring political points with immi-grant voters.

This issue isn’t about the civil rights of mi-grants – this issue is about keeping all Ameri-cans safe regardless of nation of origin.

This massacre only came to light because a wounded Ecuadorean escaped. With a bul-let wound in his neck he struggled to a nearby highway to fi nd a Mexican military roadblock. He told authorities that the migrants’ abductors identifi ed themselves as Zetas. Zetas are a drug gang whose control of parts of Mexico is so bru-

tal even many Mexicans avoid traveling on public highways near their territory.

Amnesty International has called the plight of the mi-grants crossing from Mexico to the U.S. a major world crisis. Their report called our border “one of the most dan-gerous in the world,” and said every year an untold number of migrants disappear without a trace.

Mass unmarked graves near the border hold the key to a complete accounting of these horrors. Now, Mexican authorities are trying to determine whether the 72 victims in Tamaulipas were killed at the same time – and why. We may never know.

The future is becoming clear. If the United States doesn’t reverse course and begin to take border security seriously, then these gangs will slowly increase their power in the U.S. They are already said to control several U.S. prisons, and neighborhoods in Phoenix and Los Angeles.

The Obama administration’s harassment of local and state offi cials attempting to secure the border must end immediately. Instead, the Justice Department and the Department of Homeland Security should be assisting these duly-elected local offi cials in the diffi cult task. Everyone must work together.

Violence must be met with the swift hand of justice. If we use fences, armed drones and pa-trols to secure the border of Iraq, we need to use that same technology and knowhow on our own border.

The primary objective of the United States government is to protect our citizens from for-eign enemies. These criminal gangs are foreign enemies is every sense.

THE HIGH POINT ENTERPRISE FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 3, 2010 www.hpe.com 5A

WASHINGTON (AP) – In an early sign of promise, Israeli and Pal-estinian leaders pledged Thursday in a cordial fi rst round of talks to keep meeting at regu-lar intervals, aiming to nail down a framework for overcoming deep disputes and achieving lasting peace within a year.

As their facilitator-in-chief, Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clin-ton urged Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Ne-tanyahu and Palestinian President Mahmoud Ab-bas to rise above the sus-picion and skepticism that has blocked peace efforts for decades. “By being here today, you each have taken an im-portant step toward free-ing your peoples from the shackles of a history we cannot change,” she said.

The eventual aim is the creation of a sover-eign Palestinian state beside a secure Israel.

Thursday’s results, in the fi rst face-to-face peace talks between Is-raelis and Palestinians in nearly two years, were modest – and ac-knowledged as such by all sides. There was no detailed negotiation on any substantive issue, according to George Mitchell, the adminis-tration’s special envoy for Mideast peace, who held months of prepara-tory talks and was a par-ticipant in most of the day’s discussions.

Netanyahu and Abbas will meet again on Sept.

14 and 15 in the Middle East, probably at the Egyptian Red Sea resort of Sharm el-Sheik, with Clinton and Mitchell at-tending. The two also agreed to meet roughly every two weeks after that – sometimes with U.S. offi cials present, other times not.

Mitchell offered no timeline for agreeing on the initial framework, which he said was to be “less than a full-fl edged treaty” but more detailed

than a statement of prin-ciples.

A major obstacle is looming: Israel’s mora-torium on Jewish settle-ment construction in the disputed West Bank is due to expire Sept. 26. The Palestinians have said that unless the freeze is extended, the fl edgling peace talks will collapse in short order.

In his public remarks Thursday, Netanyahu made no reference to an extension; Abbas called

for an end to settlement expansion, but he raised the matter in the context of both sides living up to

commitments, including a Palestinian pledge to end all incitement of vio-lence against Israelis.

Hopeful sign: More talks for Israel, Palestinians

Relatives: 9/11 groups should put political issues aside

NEW YORK (AP) – Both supporters and opponents of a proposed Islamic cultural center should stand against rallies planned for the anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks, groups repre-senting some relatives of attack victims said Thursday.

Protests on that day would be “disrespectful to all who see 9/11 as a day outside of politics, when we desire to re-main united in honoring the lives and the courage of our many friends and loved ones,” the groups said in letters sent to de-velopers of the Islamic center and to those plan-ning to protest it.

The messages were signed by representa-tives of the Tribute WTC Visitor Center, the Sep-tember 11th Families As-sociation, MyGoodDeed and others.

Two rallies are planned for the day: one against the center and one against anti-Islamic bigotry. Or-ganizers of both say they will be respectful.

THOMASVILLE – David-son County and Thomas-ville offi cials provided up-dates on their respective governments during the annual Thomasville Area Chamber of Commerce’s State of the City and Coun-ty on Thursday.

In front of other govern-ment offi cials, community and business leaders at Colonial Country Club, Thomasville City Man-ager Kelly Craver and Da-vidson County Board of Commissioners Chairman Max Walser delivered re-marks at the annual event sponsored by Time War-ner Cable.

Speaking on city govern-ment fi nances, Craver said the city’s general fund has vastly improved over the last fi ve years.

“This was accomplished by a balance of revenues, as well as expenditure cuts,” the city manager said. “Over 20 employ-ees have been cut in the prior fi ve years. However, different from other cit-ies, our services have re-mained stable. We have not cut back any services. We have reorganized. We worked smarter, and we have outsourced some

tasks to save some mon-ey.” The city manager said further investments in the city’s sewer system will cause the city to incur further debt, but empha-sized the improvements are needed for the town to grow and to protect the environment. He said city offi cials are seeking low-interest loans from the state and grants through the U.S. Department of

Agriculture for the sewer improvements.

Walser said Davidson County is in good fi nancial shape in “a lot of ways.” He said the recession was supposed to be over in the fourth quarter of 2009, but many residents in the county are still feeling the impact of it.

“I don’t think a lot of people feel like it was over because we have 11.7 per-

cent unemployment as I speak as of today,” Walser said. “... I don’t think we have felt that as hard as we are going to feel be-cause many of those peo-ple are on unemployment and that’s going to run out eventually and then we are going to have some issues in this county.”

Noting the county hasn’t had to lay off em-ployees and cut services

like other counties, he said Davidson County is moving forward. He said commissioners meet in closed session during al-most all of their meetings to discuss giving incen-tives to companies.

“It’s working,” he said. “You can argue all day about incentives, but that is part of the ball game.”

Offi cials dispute complaints about

mold neglectBY PAT KIMBROUGH


HIGH POINT – City of-fi cials on Thursday dis-puted the notion that complaints about possible mold in fi re stations were disregarded.

City Manager Strib Boynton said a minor problem at the Barrow Road station similar to the mold found there last week was reported in July involving a different part of the building.

Boynton said it was false to claim that Chief David Taylor did not ad-dress the problem earlier this summer.

“The problem was promptly corrected then, even though the blogs and e-mails will lead one to think it was not cor-rected when reported. The problem was correct-ed when identifi ed, and the problems we learned about last week were also promptly addressed,” Boynton said.

The inspections of the Barrow Road station, as well as two other stations thought to have possible mold issues, were initi-ated by fi refi ghter com-plaints.

“If some of the fi remen are all upset at the chief,

that’s too bad. I think the chief has dealt with this in a fairly quick and responsive way,” he said. “We care about the welfare of our em-ployees, and when the mold problem was mentioned, we quickly got on it.”

In addition to stations on Barrow Road and Ambas-sador Court, crews have evaluated Station 4, a new facility at 930 Old Winston Road.

After a heavy rain, ceil-ing stains were reported in the building. The roof was repaired by the building contractor and the ceiling tile was replaced, according to the city.

A condensation leak in the bathroom area of the station was found as the source of some stained ceiling tiles. To correct the problem, the contractor will install additional insula-tion to the ductwork, which is expected to be completed by the end of the week. No mold was discovered at the station, according to the city.

Agency leader says mergers can work

BY DAVID NIVENSENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

GUILFORD COUNTY – Any new way of pro-viding services for the county’s most needy people will work if county officials work hard enough to make it happen, a top county ad-ministrator told a new task force Thursday.

Department of Social Services Director Rob-ert Williams said con-solidated human ser-vice agencies can work as well as standalone departments. Williams came to Guilford Coun-ty in 2007 following administrative stints in Texas and Florida. In Florida, he was a district administrator for the Department of Health and Rehabilita-tive Services and di-rected health and social services in fi ve counties while supervising a tu-berculosis hospital.

“We should do no harm to the taxpay-ers and the people we serve,” Williams told the group. “Whatever the structure, the bot-tom line is that things will work if the players want it to work.”

The Guilford County Board of Commission-ers formed the task

force to explore how the county could merge the health, mental health and social services departments into one agency with commis-sioners taking on a larg-er governance role.

The state mandates many services through the agencies and pro-vides compensation. Guilford Center, the county’s mental health administrative agency, could take on more cli-ents outside the county because of state-man-dated consolidations. The agency provides some basic services di-rectly and contracts for most others.

“We cover fewer than 70,000 people, and the state may want us to

get there eventually,” said Guilford Center Director Billie Martin Pierce.

“And that should be a point of emphasis for the county,” said County Attorney Mark Payne.

C o m m i s s i o n e r s formed the task force around the existing ef-fi ciency committee, chaired by Democratic Commissioner Carolyn Coleman. Republican Commissioner Steve Ar-nold of High Point also attended the session. The group will meet weekly at least through November, when com-missioners want at least a preliminary report.


AT A GLANCE ----Expenses: Guilford County spends $54 million a year for human services

Department of Social Services: 600 employees, $17 million.

Department of Public Health: 430 employees, $18 million.

Guilford Center: 180 employees, $12 million.

Savings: Experts told commissioners earlier this year that human services consolidation offers bet-ter service, but not necessarily savings.

NC woman found months after death, son charged

BURLINGTON (AP) – A North Carolina man is in jail after in-vestigators say he hid the death of his elder-ly mother for months until a maintenance worker discovered the corpse on her couch.

Multiple media or-ganizations reported 50-year-old Don Lee Wade is charged with concealing the death of his 94-year-old mother Lucy Mae Wade.

A worker at the Ala-mance County jail said

Thursday that Wade was being held under $10,000 bond and there is no record he has an attorney.

The body was discov-ered last week.

An autopsy indicated she died from natural causes about six months ago.

Neighbors and staffers at the Burlington Hous-ing Authority say Wade told them his mother broke her hip and was staying with his sister while she recovered.

Former offi cer convicted of stealing from Salvation Army

MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNENEWS SERVICE

STATESVILLE – A former Statesville po-lice offi cer said he will fi ght his conviction for stealing a weight bench from outside of the Salvation Army Thrift Store.

Iredell County Dis-trict Court Judge Deborah Brown con-victed Brian Joyner of misdemeanor larceny Wednesday morning.

“We will appeal,” Joyner said as he left the courtroom.

Brown sentenced Joyner, who has no previous criminal re-cord, to 45 days and suspended that for 12 months and ordered Joyner to perform 24 hours community ser-vice at the Salvation Army.

Joyner admitted tak-ing the weight bench

from outside the Salva-tion Army on July 18while he was on-dutyand placing it in thetrunk of his patrol car.He then took it to hishome.

Two women, walkingby the Salvation ArmyThrift Store, witnessedJoyner place theweight bench in hiscar, and one called theSPD and spoke to theon-duty supervisor,Sgt. Tommy Chipman .

Chipman took thestand Tuesday and tes-tifi ed that, in responseto the call, he calledJoyner and asked aboutthe weight bench. “Hetold me, yes he had it,”Chipman said.

Chipman instructedhim to bring it to thepolice department.

Joyner, Chipmansaid, indicated theweight bench was neara Dumpster and he be-lieved it to be trash.

Lighthearted courtship becomes wedded drudgeryD ear Abby: I have

been married to my second hus-

band, “Greg,” for 3 1⁄2 years. Before we mar-ried, Greg took me out on dates, we had wonder-ful conversations and a satisfying sex life.

Now I spend every weekend cleaning, and when I clean the up-stairs, Greg goes down-stairs. If I clean down-stairs, he goes upstairs. He says he loves me, but it seems we have become more like roommates than husband and wife.

Greg buys big-ticket items (big-screen TV and a computer, for example) without telling me. In fact, he never discusses anything with me. Do you think he married me only to cook and clean for him?

Before you suggest counseling, let me point out one more thing: Greg is a psychologist. – Searching For Normal in Pennsylvania

Dear Searching: It appears you married a man who was terrifi c at sales and poor on fol-low-through. Because someone is a psycholo-gist does not automati-cally make that person a good spouse, or parent – or even a particularly effective therapist.

You two have a serious communication problem. You need to tell him how you feel, and he needs to tell you why he’s avoid-ing you and won’t allow you to have a voice in “big” decisions. And I AM suggesting counsel-

ing, but not with anyone with whom your hus-band is af-fi liated in business.

Dear

Abby: I have been going out with an

older man for a year and a half. He is very nice and makes me laugh. He has a lot of faults, but I can tolerate them except for one – he cheated on both of his ex-wives. He has had affairs with his friends’ wives, his employees and his customers. He even told me he slept with another woman the night before his wedding to his sec-ond wife.

He likes to fl irt, and women like him be-cause he has a great sense of humor. I love his company and we get along well – most of the time. He says he’s sorry for his past behavior, but I’m not convinced he really is. I’m afraid he will do the same with me if he has the chance.

I have spoken to him about my concerns. He says he is “different” now. I have been hurt by men before, and I really don’t want to have an-other emotional disaster. What can he do to gain my trust? – Hesitant in San Francisco

Dear Hesitant: Prob-ably nothing. Face it

– he’s charming, witty and can’t keep his zipper up. Recognize and enjoy him for who he is, but if you’re looking for a life-time commitment, he’s not “the one.”

Dear Abby: I was

recently asked by a good friend to be one of his groomsmen at his wedding. Of course, I accepted.

His bachelor party was on the Oregon coast, so I had to fl y out for that a few months before the wedding. The ceremony is in St. Louis, so I have to journey there as well. For both events I have had to pay for travel, accommodations, etc. I spent $200 for the tuxedo rental for the wedding as well as additional expenses.

By the end of it I’ll have spent more than $1,000. Must I still buy my friend a wedding gift? – Big Spender in Palo Alto, Calif.

Dear Big Spender: The answer is yes – but it doesn’t have to be expensive. According to Emily Post, among the basic responsibilities of all adult attendants is to “contribute to atten-dants’ group gifts to the bride and groom (and usually, give an individ-ual gift as well).” DEAR ABBY is written by Abi-gail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.

Man pleads guilty to killing2nd child

HILLSBOROUGH (AP) – A North Carolina man who would have been eligible for parole in No-vember after serving a life sentence for killing a girl has pleaded guilty to raping and killing an-other girl.

Multiple media outlets reported that 61-year-old George Richard Fisher pleaded guilty Wednes-day in Orange County court in Hillsborough to fi rst-degree murder

in the death of 7-year-old Carrie Wilkerson of Carrboro in 1984. He also pleaded guilty to fi rst-degree rape and fi rst-degree arson.

Fisher was serving a life sentence for sexual-ly assaulting and killing 8-year-old Jean Fewel of Chapel Hill in 1985.

District Attorney Jim Woodall says Fisher would have been eligible for parole soon if not for the new convictions.

Families seek infant death answersFORT BRAGG (AP) – Jay’Vair Pol-

lard was a little more than 2 months old when he quit breathing April 15, 2009. The baby died that morning while sleeping in his mother’s arms at their home on Fort Bragg.

The boy’s grandmother, Lori Gray, said she had never cried so hard in her life.

That was until three months later, when another of her grandchildren, 7-month-old Ka’Mya Frey, died while taking a nap in the same home on the military post. The infant was stand-ing in her crib and smiling just hours before her mother, Bianca Outlaw, found the baby cold and lifeless lying face-up on the mattress.

“That was it for me,” Gray said Wednesday. “I fell completely apart after that. I’ve never lost a child, but losing a grandchild is just as bad I think, and now I’ve lost two.”

Jay’Vair and Ka’Mya are among 10 infants who have died suddenly and without warning inside military

housing units on Fort Bragg since January 2007.

On Tuesday, military offi cials an-nounced that all 10 deaths are being reviewed to determine if they might be connected. So far, though, offi cials said the investigation has turned up no common thread – other than loca-tion – linking the cases in any way.

Outlaw said she fi nds that hard to believe. She choked back tears Wednesday as she described over the phone the shock of fi nding her daughter dead.

“I didn’t know what to do,” Outlaw said. “I was frantic. That’s something I’m always going to live with for the rest of my life.”

The baby died during an extended visit with Melissa Pollard, Gray’s daughter, and her soldier husband in the Ardennes neighborhood on post, Outlaw said. Cody Frey, Ka’Mya’s fa-ther and Outlaw’s fi ancee, is Melissa Pollard’s brother.

It was only months after the Pol-

lards’ son, Jay’Vair, died suddenly, but Outlaw never thought her child might be at risk. The baby never even had a cold before visiting Fort Bragg, Outlaw said.

The Pollards only found out sev-eral weeks later, after speaking with neighbors, that a third baby whose family had been living in the same housing unit died unexpectedly two years earlier while at an off-post baby-sitting service.

“When we learned that, that’s when we knew there had to be something going on in that house,” Outlaw said. “My daughter was healthy before we went up there. It can’t just be a coin-cidence.”

Jamie Hernan, the lawyer repre-senting Outlaw, Frey and the Pol-lards, has been pressing Fort Bragg offi cials and Picerne Military Hous-ing representatives to release the results of environmental tests con-ducted at the house, but they have refused, he said.

Bowling with an aneurysm shouldn’t pose danger; but ask your doctor

D ear Dr. Donohue: I am a 73-year-old woman. I have

an abdominal aortic aneurysm. I have sono-grams regularly. I am in a bowling league. I bowl each week. My bowling ball weighs 10 pounds. Should I bowl? My last ultrasound shows that the aneurysm is 3.8 cm. – F.S.

Your doctor is the only one who can answer your question with authority. He or she knows all the circumstances of your health. However, I can tell you that most people with an aneurysm of your size are encouraged to be ac-tive. Lifting heavy weights is discouraged. A 10-pound bowling ball isn’t consid-ered a heavy weight.

The size of an aneu-rysm determines its risk of breaking apart and bleeding profusely. Aneurysms smaller than 4 cm are not in danger of suddenly rupturing. When an aneurysm reaches 5 to 5.5 cm, then surgical repair is recom-mended. You are quite a distance away from the danger zone.

For readers: Aneu-rysms are bulges of an artery wall, and are weak spots.

Dear Dr. Donohue: I have never seen you address acupuncture. I have had a bad back for three months, have seen two doctors and have

followed their instruc-tions. I have taken medicines that ease the pain. My back isn’t as sore as it once was, but it still bothers

me. Acupuncture has been suggested. What are your views on it? – M.L.

I have no misgivings about trying acupunc-ture for pain relief. The Chinese have used it for centuries. Any treatment that lasts that long must have some value. Fine needles are inserted into the skin at specifi c points and are left in place for 15 to 30 minutes. From time to time, the acu-puncturist stimulates the needles.

The American College of Physicians and the American Pain Society endorse acupuncture. A recent review article in the New England Journal of Medicine, a premier medical journal, also endorsed it. Who am I not to follow suit?

Dear Dr. Donohue: How do I get a doctor to correct or change his written report? Twice in my 77 years I have point-ed out incorrect state-ments in their records.

Each time I was told theycould not change any-thing once it appears in their written report.

There must be a way to correct an error, espe-cially before sending the report to other doctors. Do you have any sugges-tions? – G.J.

I do have a suggestion.The doctors are afraid

of changing information because such changes can be damaging to them if the records are required in any legal proceedings.

However, they can make a current note in the chart, explaining how previous informa-tion in the record was not correct. That’s not go-ing to get them into any trouble. It seems to me that not doing so would get them into trouble.

If the doctors balk at this, ask them to talk to a lawyer. Tell them you are preparing a docu-ment that states what the correction should be and that you will send it to any doctor to whom your current doctor sends yourrecords. That should mo-tivate your doctor to act. DR. DONOHUE regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but he will incorporate them in his column whenever possible. Readers may write him or request an order form of available health newsletters at P.O. Box 536475, Orlando, FL 32853-6475

After fi nishing a sen-tence for weapons charg-es earlier this year, T.I. was poised to have the comeback of the fall.

The multiplatinum rap-per starred in the nation’s No. 1 movie, recently married his longtime girlfriend, taped a music special for VH1 and was wrapping up a new al-bum. But after an arrest Wednesday in California, there are questions about whether he’s returning to the music charts or prison.

The Grammy-winning hitmaker, who is on three years of probation, was taken into custody with

wife Tame-ka “Tiny” Cottle on suspicion of possessing m e t h a m -phetamines after police pulled over

their vehicle in West Hollywood. They were released on $10,000 bail early Thursday.

While charges have yet to be fi led, the case has the potential to put one of music’s top names be-hind bars yet again.

“Known as the “King of the South,” T.I is a top name in hip-hop, and pop. Born as Clifford Har-ris, he sold millions of al-bums since his debut.

Appeals court sets hearing in Jackson estate case

LOS ANGELES (AP) – A California appeals court has scheduled a hearing for Michael Jackson’s fa-ther to argue he deserves a role in his son’s estate.

The Second District Court of Appeal on Thurs-day set an Oct. 6 date for Joe Jackson’s attorneys to argue his case.

Michael Jackson’s 2002 will omitted his father.

A ruling after the 2009 death of the pop star placed his attorney John Branca and family friend John McClain in charge of his affairs.

Joe Jackson appealed the ruling in November.

Michael Jackson’s es-tate has earned tens of millions of dollars since the singer’s death at age 50.

T.I.’s comeback could be derailed by arrest

Oil platform explodes in the Gulf NEW ORLEANS, La.

(AP) – An oil platform exploded and burned off the Louisiana coast Thursday, the second such disaster in the Gulf of Mexico in less than fi ve months. This time, the Coast Guard said there was no leak, and no one was killed.

The Coast Guard ini-tially reported that an oil sheen a mile long and 100 feet wide had begun to spread from the site of the blast, about 200 miles west of the source of BP’s mas-sive spill. But hours later, Coast Guard Cmdr. Cheri Ben-Iesau said crews were unable to fi nd any spill.

The company that owns the platform, Houston-based Mariner Energy, did not know what caused the explosion.

Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal said Mariner offi -cials told him there were seven active production

wells on the platform, and they were shut down shortly after the fi re broke out.

Jindal said the compa-ny told him the fi re began in 100 barrels of light oil condensate, but offi cials did not know yet what sparked the fl ames.

Good and faithful servant

Former High Pointer Pat Hunt retiresas chaplain at Virginia’s Mary Baldwin College

BY JIMMY TOMLINENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

W hen Sara Hunt’s daugh-ter, Pat – at the time a schoolteacher – told

Sara she wanted to go to semi-nary, her motherly instincts kicked in.

“I said, ‘Pat, I don’t think there’s going to be much of a market for women ministers,’” Sara recalls with a chuckle. “And she said, ‘I don’t want to be a minister, but I want to go to the seminary if Daddy will send me.’”

This was the early 1970s – when the idea of women being ordained was relatively new – but Pat’s father, the late Dr. Jack Hunt of High Point, agreed to send his daughter to Union Theological Seminary in Rich-mond, Va.

Nearly four decades later – in-cluding her recently concluded 25-year stint as chaplain of Mary Baldwin College in Staunton, Va. – Pat, an ordained Presbyte-rian minister, believes she made the right decision.

“I think I ended up where I needed to be,” she says during a telephone interview from her home in Staunton.

Pat, who grew up in High Point before enrolling in a prep program at Peace College and then getting her degree from Wake Forest University, was teaching school in Charlottes-ville, Va., when she felt called to go to seminary.

“I taught junior high school for three years,” she says, “and if that won’t drive you to your knees, nothing will.”

Hunt graduated from semi-nary in 1976 and was working in new church development in Memphis, Tenn., when she learned of the opening for a chaplain at Mary Baldwin Col-lege in 1985.

“I wasn’t sure I was interested in moving,” she says, “but I had worked part time at Rhodes

College in Memphis, and I liked being around students and being around people who liked reading books.”

So Hunt applied for and landed the job, and she loved it.

Eventually.“It took a while,” Hunt says.

“You know, when you take a new job, you’re not always sure at fi rst, but I liked it better and better as I went along. I knew more how to approach the job af-ter the fi rst two or three years.”

Hunt came to enjoy the honest

discussions she had with stu-dents who were, as she puts it, “looking for clues as to how you get through this life.”

During her quarter-century at Mary Baldwin, Hunt created the acclaimed Quest program of spiritual exploration, which encourages students to pursue spiritual meaning through religious growth, intellectual honesty and service to the com-munity.

“The Quest program brings together students from differ-ent religious backgrounds, and we just discuss life as it’s really lived and how that life is in-formed by our faith traditions,” she explains. “Life just doesn’t come with an instruction book, so we’re on an exploration of how to live this life well.”

Hunt retired from her position at the end of June.

At Mary Baldwin’s commence-ment ceremonies in May, Hunt was one of two individuals to receive the college’s prestigious Algernon Sydney Sullivan Award, which recognizes excel-lence of character and service to humanity.

In addition to writing a weekly newspaper column for The News Virginian in Waynesboro, Va., Hunt has published a book of her sermons and prayers. She’s considering writing another book in her retirement, after fi rst taking some time for her-self.

ACTIVE AGING ---

Across the country, com-munities are preparing events for Active Ag-ing Week, the annual health promotion event of the Interna-tional Council on Active Aging (ICAA) that will be held Sept. 20-26.

Joining an Ac-tive Aging Week celebration is a perfect way to get out of the house, learn new things, meet others and maybe even win a raffl e prize. As the World Health Organi-zation states, “active aging” means optimiz-ing opportuni-ties for health, participation and security in order to enhance quality of life as people age. That’s what Ac-tive Aging Week is all about: giving people 50 years and older a chance to experi-ence this year’s theme, “Be ac-tive your way.”

Hosts in the local commu-nity organize the events to make sure they are appealing and appropriate. You’ll fi nd:

• Workshops on health topics, from Alzheimer’s disease to low-fat cooking

• Walks, strolls and rolls

• Health fairs• Special dem-

onstrations of exercise classes

• Music and theater perfor-mances (and participation)

• Games and challenges

If you want to join an Active Aging Week event, fi nd a list of host sites on the ICAA website – www.icaa.cc, click on the Consumer sec-tion, then Active Aging Week. The link is www.icaa.cc/activeaging week/aaw-pub lic.htm. You can also visit Active Aging Week on Facebook.

Yesterday’s Puzzle SolvedFriday, Sept. 3, 2010CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Shaun

White, 24; Garrett Hedlund, 26; Charlie Sheen, 45; Eileen Brennan, 78

HAPPY BIRTHDAY: Change is upon you and, like it or not, you must deal with whatever comes your way. Showing you have what it takes to deal with matters effectively will speak volumes about your character and what you have to offer. Emo-tions will be diffi cult to contain and should be handled with dignity. Don’t let past problems re-surface. Your numbers are 2, 10, 19, 22, 25, 31, 42

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Be careful how you handle personal matters. Someone you are close to will have trouble relating to what you want. Stick to what you can do on your own to avoid disputes. Get away from home for the day. ★★

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Discuss any emo-tional matters that need addressing before you carry on with your plans. Dealing with friends, children or your lover will all lead to a greater un-derstanding. Working alongside others will help you reach your goals. ★★★★

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You don’t have to say a word. In fact, avoid talking and you will get much further ahead. Focus on developing some of your ideas that can turn a profi t. Take a serious approach to whatever you do. ★★★

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Travel, love, ro-mance and seeking adventure should all be sched-uled in. Relaxing or enjoying a little pampering will pay off. Don’t let someone else’s burden be-come your own when you should be taking care of your own interests. ★★★

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Redecorate or look at real estate or make a residential move. Change is good and will help you sort out some of the prob-lems you have faced in the past. A unique idea will allow you to turn negative relationships into positive and prosperous connections. ★★★

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Discussing your plans with others will drum up interest in what you are trying to pursue and bring about possible customers or partnerships. You can move toward your goals quickly, but don’t give too much away. ★★★★

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Being limited emo-tionally by a set of circumstances you face will lead to anger, upset and disputes. Rethink your strategy. Follow through on your own if you feel strongly about what you want to do. ★★

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Give more thought to fi nancial matters. It’s important to take care of business and help an older family member in order to obtain control of your fi nan-cial future. By implementing new ways to take advantage of what the system offers, you will get ahead. ★★★★★

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): It’s what you do to help others that will count. Show com-passion and offer your services. Don’t test the one you love or push your beliefs on others. If you cannot pursue something on your own, perhaps you aren’t ready to travel down that path. ★★★

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Don’t let someone from your past drag you into a situation you have faced before. Limitations will occur if you are trying to learn something new or while traveling to unfamiliar places. Don’t let your vul-nerability or uncertainty cost you. ★★★

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Someone you owe emotionally, fi nancially or personally will be ready to collect. Don’t try to avoid what needs to be taken care of. Once you clear the debt, you can move forward. ★★★

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Use your creative ideas to turn a profi t. What you have to offer, along with a tempting presentation, has potential to position you for success. There is a lot to gain by handling fairly what needs doing. ★★★★★

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

TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES

Some people have climbed the ladder of success. Unlucky Louie walked under it.

Today’s deal from a money match cost Louie $15 through no fault of his own. At one table North-South played at 3NT undoubled, and West led a normal dia-mond. South won with the ten, forced out the ace of clubs, and had three clubs, four hearts and two diamonds.

Louie was South at the other table and had the misfortune to have Ed, our club’s best player, sitting East. When North-South bid tentatively to 3NT, Ed doubled to sug-gest a spade opening lead. He had dummy’s spades tied up and knew from the auction that North-South had no extra strength.

MINUS 500West duly led a spade:

jack, queen. Ed shifted to a diamond: queen, king. A second spade went to the nine and ten, and Louie fi nessed with the ten on the next diamond, losing. Ed got the ace of spades and the ace of clubs, and Louie was minus 500.

Combined with the oth-er North-South’s plus 600, it was a 15-IMP loss – at a dollar an IMP.

DAILY QUESTIONYou hold: S K J 9 8 H K

6 2 D 8 4 C K J 9 5. Your partner opens one dia-mond, you respond one spade, he raises to two spades and you try 2NT. Partner next bids three clubs. What do you say?

ANSWER: Partner’s bidding suggests a weak, distributional hand with only three-card spade support. Since your king of hearts seems to be wasted opposite a single-ton, rule out any chance for game. Pass. Partner may hold A 6 4, 4, A Q 7 6 3, Q 10 7 6.

Eric Gordon scored 21 points and the United States pulled away after a sluggish fi rst half to beat Tunisia 92-57 Thursday in its fi nal game of pool play at the world champion-ship in Istanbul.

With nothing to play for, the Americans sleep-walked through most of the early start, leading the winless team by only four points early in the third quarter before turning it into a rout over the fi nal 15 minutes.

The U.S. (5-0), seeded fi rst in Group B, next plays on Monday against Angola, the No. 4 seed from Group A.

Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook each scored 14 points for the United States.

Bison offense comes alive

BY DANIEL KENNEDYSPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE

HIGH POINT – It took Drew Adams and the High Point Central of-fense the fi rst quarter to fi nd any sort of rhythm. Once they did, the Bison exploited a weakness in Lexington’s secondary and enjoyed a fi eld day through the air.

Adams went 13-for-20 passing, tallying 241 yards and a touchdown, to lead Central to a 24-15 victory over the Yellow Jackets on Thursday at Simeon Stadium

The Bison were able to overcome 133 yards rush-ing from MarQuez Gray-son and a pair of scoring strikes through the air from Lexington quarter-back Al Challenger to get the win.

Challenger had two prime opportunities to take the air from Cen-tral’s sails. The fi rst came with a 6-0 lead and the ball inside the Bison 8-yard line, but the senior signal-caller fumbled the football over to Adams, who took full advantage.

Adams completed three passes for 86 yards on

what was a game-chang-ing drive for Central. A 56-yard bomb to Desmond Lee set up a beautiful 10-yard fade route to Derek Grant in the corner of the end zone, with Aus-tin Miller’s PAT giving the Bison their fi rst lead at 7-6.

Lexington then an-swered with a swift, fi ve-play drive punctuated by a 60-yard TD from Chal-lenger to Grayson. A di-sastrous drive ensued for Central and ended with a safety when the ball was snapped over punter Miller’s head and through the end zone, leaving the Jackets with a 15-7 advantage.

The Bison defense clamped down on Chal-lenger’s offense in the second half and did not allow Lexington to score again. The Yellow Jack-ets threatened with about eight minutes to play in the fourth quarter, but on fourth-and-goal from the 1-yard line, Challeng-er fumbled the snap and Central recovered.

A big special teams play minutes earlier put the Bison ahead to stay. Aar-on Leach blocked Tracey

Jackson’s punt inside the 5 and Johnathan White re-covered the ball in the end zone to give the Bison a 17-15 lead. Leach tacked on a late scoring run to ice the game.

Central (3-0) plays at Greensboro Smith next Friday, while the Yel-low Jackets (1-2) travel to North Rowan.

Deacs douse Presbyterian

BY GREER SMITHENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER

WINSTON-SALEM – Any doubts about the outcome were settled early Thurs-day night.

Doubts about how Wake Forest will fare against top-fl ight Division I com-petition still remain.

Even with a rookie quarterback starting, the Demon Deacon quickly proved they were too much for Presbyterian – the second-year Football Championship Subdivi-sion member from the Big South that went 0-11 last year.

The Demon Deacons built a 21-point lead on their fi rst two possessions behind starter Ted Stachi-tas and a turnover to re-move any double about the outcome and cruised to a 53-13 victory over the Blue Hose in the season opener for both teams at half-full BB&T Field. The

53 points was the most for the Deacons in a home game since 1951.

“We made some mental mistakes,” Grobe said. “We’ve got some smart guys. We’re trying some new things on offense and defense and we’ve got to do a better job making sure they learn everything.”

But, questions remain about the Deacons quar-terback situation after Demon Deacon coach Jim Grobe went to fresh-man Tanner Price in the third quarter even though Stachitas engineered four touchdown drives as they Deacons built a 35-7 half-time lead. Grobe went deeper on the bench to Skylar Jones and Brendan Cross in the closing min-utes.

“We had a comfortable lead and wanted to get Tanner some playing time because we didn’t want his fi rst action to come against an ACC team (week from

Saturday against Duke),” Grobe said.

After the Deacons went up 21-0 on a 34-yard scram-ble by Stachitas, a 14-yard sweep by Josh Adams and Alex Frye’s 44-yard inter-ception return in the fi rst eight minutes of the fi rst quarter, Stachitas had his struggles until the clos-ing minutes of the second quarter. He looked unsure at times when he went back to pass, overthrew re-ceivers and lost a fumble. Thanks to the running of Tommy Bohanon, the Dea-cons got untracked and put together a drive that ended in Brandon Pender-grass’s 16-yard run.

On the fi nal possession of the half, Stachitas did come through with his best completion of the night, hitting Marshall Williams with a 23-yard strike that set up a 3-yard scoring run by Josh Harris.

Grobe said that Stachi-tas’ play wasn’t the reason

for playing but it could have been if Stachitas had not rebounded after the fumble. Stachitas threw for just 84 yards and ran for 79 as the Dea-cons rushed for 285 in the fi rst half. They fi nished with 415 rushing and 95 passing.

Price failed to direct a scoring possession in the third quarter, partially a victim of two dropped passes that would have

gotten fi rst downs and Deacon running backs failing twice to pick up fi rst downs in short yardage situations. The drought ended with 11 minutes left when Devon Brown bolted 85 yards, the fourth-longest TD run in Deacon history.

Brown led the Deacs with 91 yards. Price com-pleted just one of seven passes for seven yards and ran for 17.

Seattle’s Jackson selected WNBA MVP for third time

SEATTLE (AP) — Seattle Storm forward Lauren Jackson was selected the WNBA’s most valuable player for the third time in hercareer on Thursday night.

Jackson was honored before Game 1 of Seattle’s best-of-3 Western Conference fi nal against defending champion Phoenix. Also, the Storm’s Brian Agler was named the league’s coach of the year.

Jackson, a 6-foot-5 forward from Australia, averaged 20.5 points and 8.3 rebounds while helping the Storm to a 28-6 record — tying the record for the most wins in a season.

NORTON, Mass. (AP) – A chart of Fe-dEx Cup standings at the Deutsche Bank Championship showed Tiger Woods at the top, not unusual con-sidering he was won the cup and its $10 mil-lion prize every year he has played.

This chart was dif-ferent.

It listed the 10 play-ers who are on the bub-ble at the TPC Boston, starting with Woods at No. 65 through Josh Teater at No. 75. Only the top 70 after this week will advance to the third round of the playoffs at the BMW Championship, where Woods is defending champion.

Woods might be showing signs of turn-ing around. One tour-nament is not enough to declare Woods’ game is back, although his tie for 12th at The Barclays was his best fi nish since June. Plus, it got him into the sec-ond round of the Fe-dEx Cup playoffs.

Matt Kuchar is No. 1 in the FedEx Cup standings on the strength of his victory last week to open the four-tournament play-offs. Steve Stricker is No. 2 and the defend-ing champion at the TPC Boston.

Woods looks to keep going in FedEx Cup Sabathia, Yankees baffl e A’s

Granderson hit a solo homer and a two-run shot as a replacement for Nick Swisher, who left after one inning because of a stiff left knee. Jorge Posa-da also homered a day af-ter an animated ejection, propelling the Yankees to their sixth straight vic-tory.

Dallas Braden (9-10) left

in the sixth inning with heat-related cramps. He allowed two hits and slowly walked off trailing 1-0. He was coming off a four-hit shutout at Texas.

METS 4, BRAVES 2ATLANTA – David

Wright homered, Johan Santana won for the fi rst time in four starts and the New York Mets snapped the Atlanta Braves’ fi ve-game winning streak with a 4-2 victory Thurs-day night.

Santana (11-9) left after fi ve innings, his shortest outing in 23 starts.

NMPA Hall adding trioBY GREER SMITH

ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER

MOTORSPORTS NOTES:Former Cup champi-

on Dale Jarrett, famed crew chief and engine builder Waddell Wilson and renowned journal-ist Tom Higgins make up this year’s National Motorsports Press As-sociation Hall of Fame class.

All three were select-ed on more than 65 per-cent of the ballots cast by NMPA members to earn induction into the Hall of Fame, which is located at Darlington Raceway. Induction cer-emonies are scheduled in January.

Wilson was selected on 70 percent of the ballots. Higgins was se-lected on 68 percent and Jarrett on 66 percent of the ballots.

Those who received votes but did not reach the 65-percent mark for induction were Tiny Lund, Joe Gibbs, Hal Hamrick, Les Richter, L.D. Ottinger, Lloyd Moore, Donnie Allison, Len Wood, Jim Hunter and Louise Smith.

CARAWAY RACES STABLEThe battle for Cara-

way Speedway’s late model championship remained relatively unchanged as contend-ers Dan Moore, Travis Swaim and Jason York fi nished 1-2-3 in a 150-lap feature last Saturday.

Swaim increased his lead over York to eight points, while third-place Moore moved within 18 of the lead.

Mack Little III pre-vailed in the 30-lap Lim-ited Late Model event, with Josh Lowder of Thomasville second and Junior Kendrick of Thomasville fourth. Kendrick is 44 points ahead of Noah Triplett.

Daniel Hemric won the Legends race, fol-lowed by Keven Wood and Luke and Hoyt De-mis. Scottie York got his sixth Super Mini-Truck victory of the year and upped his lead over race runner-up Glenn Chris-coe Jr. to 24 points.

Richard Jones fi nished fourth in a U-Car race and was left 32 points ahead of Andrew Schill, who fi nished third and gained two points. Zack Bralley won the event.

MODIFIED NUMBERSThe NASCAR South-

ern Modifi ed Tour makes its fi rst visit to Langley Speedway in Hampton, Va., on Satur-day night. L.W. Miller owns a seven-point lead over Andy Seuss after Seuss’ fl ag-to-fl ag victo-ry at Caraway Speedway last Saturday night.

HOT PASSRyan Blaney of High

Point failed to get his third straight victory in the PASS South Series last Saturday night at South Boston Speed-way. He still didn’t do too badly, coming away with a second-place fi n-ish and the lead in se-ries standings.

The PASS Tour vis-its North Wilkesboro Speedway on Saturday. The 200-lap event will mark the fi rst long-dis-tance race at the .625-mile track since its close following its fi nal Cup race in 1996. Races for Limited Late Model, Stadium stock and Al-lison Legacy cars are also scheduled. Bobby and Donnie Allison are to serve as grand mar-shals.

Qualifying is to start at 11:30 a.m. Races begin at 2 p.m., with the PASS race scheduled last.


Wolfpack’s O’Brien needs wins this yearRALEIGH (AP) – The

fi rst year had the typi-cal bumps of a coaching transition. The second ended with a bowl loss that secured a losing sea-son. The third was an in-jury-riddled mess.

Coach Tom O’Brien knows this season at N.C. State had better offer something more.

“You have to win. That shows progress,” he said. “That’s what we haven’t been able to do. ... We’ve got to go on and have a winning season and go to a bowl game.”

When O’Brien arrived, it seemed the program that had offered plenty of bluster under Chuck Am-ato – despite never fi nish-ing higher than fourth in the ACC – was hiring the perfect substance-over-style guy. Yet N.C. State has been mediocre, losing seven games in each of the past three seasons.

N.C. State boasts a for-mer all-ACC QB in Russell Wilson and has lineback-er Nate Irving back after he missed all of last year

with injuries suffered in a car wreck. The offense has been good enough to win games, but the defense last year was a disaster.

So far, the Wolfpack’s only real accomplishment under O’Brien has been to win all three meetings with rival North Carolina and its coach, Butch Da-

vis, whose hiring about a month before O’Brien in late 2006 generated a lot more buzz.

Staying healthy would certainly help. Last year, 12 players went down to season-ending injuries.

Wilson was fi rst-team all-ACC as a freshman and threw 31 TD passes

last year to lead an offensethat averaged 30 pointsper game. But Wilsonmissed spring drills whileconcentrating on base-ball, allowing talented re-serve Mike Glennon to getall the snaps. O’Brien hassaid he expects Glennonto push to take Wilson’sstarting job.

Bernanke: Shut down failing banks

WASHINGTON (AP) — Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke told a panel investigating the fi nancial crisis that regulators must be ready to shutter the largest institutions if they threaten to bring down the fi nancial system.

“If the crisis has a single lesson, it is that the too-big-to-fail problem must be solved,” Bernanke said Thursday while testifying before the Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission.

Bernanke also said it was impossible for the Fed to rescue Lehman Brothers from bankruptcy in 2008 because the Wall Street fi rm lacked suffi cient col-lateral to secure a loan. Lehman’s former chief ex-ecutive told the panel a day earlier that the fi rm could have been saved, but regu-

lators refused to provide help.

The Fed chief is present-ing his analysis of the cri-sis and views on potential systemwide risks as the panel approaches the end of its yearlong investiga-tion into the Wall Street meltdown.

The fi nancial overhaul law enacted this summer gives regulators the au-thority to shut down fi rms when their collapse poses a broader threat to the sys-tem. The process resembles the one used by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. to close failing banks.

FDIC Chairman Sheila Bair told the panel “the stakes are high” for regula-tors to effectively exercise their new powers.

If not, “we will have for-feited this historic chance

to put our fi nancial system on a sounder and safer path in the future,” Bair said.

Bernanke said that bail-ing out these institutions is not a healthy solution and great improvement will come from the new law.

“Too-big-to-fail fi nancial institutions were both a source ... of the crisis and among the primary im-pediments to policymak-ers’ efforts to contain it,” Bernanke said.

“We should not imagine ... that it is possible to pre-vent all crises,” he said. “To achieve both sustained growth and stability, we need to provide a frame-work which promotes the appropriate mix of pru-dence, risk-taking and in-novation in our fi nancial system.”

Burger King agrees to buyout

CHICAGO (AP) — Burg-er King Holdings Inc., the nation’s perennially No. 2 hamburger chain, said Thursday that it is selling itself to little-known pri-vate equity fi rm 3G Capital in a deal valued at $3.26 bil-lion.

Its shares soared to an 18-month high.

Thursday’s $24-per-share tender offer comes after a day of speculation about the deal that sent shares up more than 15 percent. The offer is a nearly 46 percent premium over the com-pany’s stock price before rumors of a buyout began circulating.

Under the terms of the deal with 3G, Burger King’s Chairman and CEO John Chidsey will become co-chairman of the board. 3G Managing Partner Alex Behring will be the other co-chairman.

Burger King, with its 12,100 locations around the world, lags its far larger

competitor McDonald’s Corp., and has struggled to keep up with its rival during the economy’s roll-ercoaster of the past two years.

Among the biggest prob-lems: high unemployment among its most important, but notoriously fi ckle, group of customers: young men between 18 and 34.

It’s more than the bad the economy that’s led to fi ve consecutive quarters of declines in an important performance measure of sales at locations open at least a year.

Burger King’s once-unique concept of fl ame-broiled burgers isn’t so rare any more, thanks to a boom in gourmet ham-burgers from smaller com-petitors such as Five Guys, The Counter and In-N-Out Burger. And it’s hard for Burger King to make solid profi ts while competing with McDonald’s super-low prices.

Retailers enjoy gains in AugustNEW YORK (AP)

— American shoppers, taking advantage of deep discounts and tax-free holidays, opened up their wallets a little more for back-to-school spending compared with last year, giving some retailers bet-ter-than expected gains for August.

The results provided a sliver of hope for the recovery amid an un-relenting batch of bad news, from slumping home prices and high job-lessnes, that have pointed

to a stalling economy and set up dire expectations for the back-to-school shopping season. Still, the retailers’ gains mask underlying weakness in consumer spending as they’re being compared with declines a year ago and worries still abound about the critical holiday season.

Shoppers remain selec-tive and are focusing on the necessities, a trend that is expected to continue through at least the holi-day shopping season.

AOL signs new pact with Google

NEW YORK (AP) — Google Inc. will continue to provide the search results on AOL Inc.’s websites under a new, fi ve-year deal the companies signed this week.

The agreement largely reinforces an arrange-ment that has been in place since 2005. But the new contract, an-nounced Thursday, also expands their coopera-tion onto AOL sites for cell phones and other gadgets. And it will put AOL video content on Google Inc.’s YouTube site for the fi rst time.

Oil prices waiver on mixed news

NEW YORK (AP) — Oil prices headed higher Thursday after an initial retreat as reports on jobs, manufacturing and home sales gave mixed signs about the econo-my. Benchmark oil for October delivery rose 30 cents to $74.21 a barrel in midday trading on the New York Mercan-tile Exchange. Prices dropped as low as $73.11 in early trading.

Productivity falls while costs increase

WASHINGTON (AP) — American companies ex-perienced the largest drop in workplace productivity this spring in nearly four years and a rise in labor costs, suggesting businesses may no longer be able to squeeze more work out leaner staffs.

Productivity dropped at an annual rate of 1.8 percent in the April-to-June quarter, the Labor Department said Thurs-day.

NEW YORK (AP) —Stocks rose Thursday,extending their gainsfrom the day before, afterreports on housing, man-ufacturing and jobs all in-dicated that the economycontinues to grow.

The Dow Jones in-dustrial average rose 50points, having jumped254 on Wednesday thanksto strong reports on man-ufacturing in the U.S. andChina. Broader indexesalso rose.

Trading was some-what muted ahead of thegovernment’s closelywatched monthly reporton employment due outFriday.

“We’re treading water,”said Dan Genter, CEOof RNC Genter Capital.Traders are waiting tosee if Friday’s jobs data“provides more of a res-cue or a shark attack.”

The monthly report islikely to provide furtherevidence that the jobsmarket remains weak.Economists polled byThomson Reuters pre-dict the unemploymentrate inched up to 9.6percent last month from9.5 percent in July asprivate employers hiredjust 41,000 workers lastmonth.

The Dow Jones indus-trial average rose 50.63,or 0.5 percent, to close at10,320.10.

Broader indexes alsorose. The Standard &Poor’s 500 index rose 9.81,or 0.9 percent, to 1,090.10.

Positive reports lift stumbling economyWASHINGTON (AP) – A

weak economy got a little lift Thursday with new data suggesting companies aren’t pursuing mass lay-offs and stores are a little busier.

New applications for un-employment benefi ts de-clined for a second straight week after rising in the pre-vious three. Retailers re-ported surprisingly strong sales in August. And more people signed contracts to buy homes.

Economists were mildly encouraged by the news, which followed several

downbeat reports on hous-ing and weaker economic growth last week. But few saw signs that the economy is gaining momentum.

“It’s encouraging that we’re not seeing further deterioration as we have in recent months,” said Julia Coronado, U.S. economist at BNP Pari-bas. “But we’re not turn-ing around and moving in the direction of stron-ger growth.”

New claims for unem-ployment aid fell last week by 6,000 to a sea-sonally adjusted 472,000,

the Labor Department said Thursday. The four-week average of claims, a less-volatile measure, fell by 2,500 to 485,500, its fi rst decrease after four straight increases.

Even with the declines, claims are still at much higher levels than they would be in a healthy economy. When economic output is growing rapidly and employers are hiring, claims generally drop be-low 400,000.

It appears “that a wave of panicked layoffs has passed, as companies

have become a bit calmer in the face of the fi nancial and economic disruptions of late spring and early summer,” Pierre Ellis, an economist at Decision Eco-nomics, wrote in a note to clients.

In a separate report, the Labor Department said pro-ductivity fell in the spring by the largest amount in nearly four years while labor costs rose. That indi-cates companies may have reached the limits of their ability to squeeze more work out of their reduced work forces.

Dell concedes in 3Par bidding warSEATTLE (AP) – Dell

Inc. is walking away from a bidding contest with ri-val Hewlett-Packard Co. for data-storage maker 3Par Inc.

Dell said Thursday it won’t match HP’s offer to pay $33 per share for 3Par, or about $2.07 bil-lion. Dell’s decision came barely an hour after 3Par announced it had re-ceived Dell’s revised of-fer of $32 per share and then the even stronger bid from HP.

In a statement, 3Par said Dell’s revised offer contained new terms that it found unacceptable, including a multiyear re-

seller agreement with Dell that would remain in ef-fect even if 3Par were to be bought by another com-pany.

The board of 3Par deemed HP’s offer superior. It’s 83 percent above Dell’s fi rst offer and more than three times what 3Par stock was trading at then.

“We took a measured approach throughout the process and have decided to end these discussions,” said Dave Johnson, Dell’s senior vice president for corporate strategy.

Shares of 3Par increased 74 cents, or 2.3 percent, to $32.82 in morning trading Thursday. Before Dell con-

ceded, 3Par shares were trading as high as $33.84 as investors expected Dell to match or beat HP’s $33-per-share offer.

Dell shares jumped 15 cents, or 1.3 percent, to $12.29, while shares of HP,

which is based in Palo Alto, Calif., increased 21 cents, or 0.5 percent, to $39.42.

Dell, which is based in Round Rock, Texas, made the fi rst offer for 3Par on Aug. 16, at $18 per share.
