BY PAUL B. JOHNSONENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – Thomas Built Buses recently re-ceived a production order through Kentucky school districts in part because of the federal stimulus and the push toward more environ-mentally friendly vehicles.

Thomas Built Buses has begun deliveries of 20 Saf-T-Liner C2e hybrids to 13 Kentucky school districts, with the potential for ad-ditional hybrid bus orders in the near future, the com-pany reports.

The hybrid is powered by an EPA-compliant Cum-mins diesel engine and Ea-ton hybrid-electric parallel system developed jointly by Thomas Built Buses, Eaton Corp. and Freightliner Cus-tom Chassis Corp.

The purchase by the Ken-tucky school districts was made possible by a $12.9 million American Recov-ery and Reinvestment Act grant to the state of Ken-tucky, which will allow the state to replace up to 200 of its oldest buses with clean-er hybrid buses. Thomas Built’s hybrid Saf-T-Liner is expected to reduce emis-sions and improve fuel economy by 30 percent or more, the company re-ports.

When the federal stimu-lus was passed early last year, school bus industry offi cials hoped some of the money would help public

school districts with bus purchases.

The stimulus included about $54 billion to backfi ll cuts made in public educa-tion, as well as $300 million to reduce diesel vehicle emissions through the Envi-ronmental Protection Agen-

cy. School bus industry of-fi cials have said the diesel emissions money could go toward reimbursing states and communities for part of the cost of replacing older school buses with a vehicle reaching or exceeding new environmental standards.

Thomas Built Buses has gone through ups and downs during the past cou-ple of years with its work force.

During the brunt of the recession in 2008, the bus manufacturer laid off about 400 workers. Earlier

this year, Thomas Built Buses recalled 99 employ-ees because of an upturn in orders, but earlier this summer eliminated 90 jobs to refl ect fewer orders for buses.

STIMULUS $$$Thomas Built Buses receives production order from Kentucky school districts

Work has begun at Clara Cox siteBY PAT KIMBROUGH

ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – After a long search for fi nancing, construction has started on a new public housing community that offi cials hope will serve as a catalyst for rede-velopment in one part of south-east High Point.

Ground was broken last week on the fi rst phase of new devel-opment on the site of the former Clara Cox Homes housing proj-ect. Grading and other work

has started on the site, which is bounded by E. Russell Avenue, Park Street, E. Grimes Avenue and Asheboro Street. The fi rst

two phases of the community, dubbed Park Terrace, are project-ed to include a total of 172 apart-ment units and are scheduled to be complete next year, with the fi rst buildings available for oc-cupancy in the spring. The entire project is expected to comprise 220 multifamily units and 15 sin-gle-family homes.

High Point Housing Authority offi cials who are overseeing the project said they expect to begin leasing efforts by the end of this year.

“Perseverance pays off. After the Clara Cox site was demol-ished, it seemed like all efforts to get public funds or private devel-opment to replace the housing was nowhere to be found,” said authority board Chairman Bob Davis. “The ultimate goals of the authority are to complete the Clara Cox site and to continue to rehabilitate the surrounding area into a beautiful and livable place for the community and

Offi cials welcome potential for new jobsBY DARRICK IGNASIAK


WALLBURG – Wallburg offi cials are hopeful a joint incentives pack-age with Davidson County will be enough to restore the former Tyco Electronics plant on Gumtree Road as the young town’s largest employer.

The Wallburg Town Council on Tuesday night will consider its fi rst incentives package for the town that incorporated in 2004. Davidson County commissioners and the Town Council are con-sidering an incentives package to entice “Project Plus” to locate to Wallburg.

County and town offi cials are considering buying the former Tyco Electronics building at 5568 Gumtree Rd. for the code-named project. Project Plus would pro-vide 500 jobs within seven years

and invest $7.6 million in plant, machinery and equipment, ac-cording to Steve Googe, executive director of the Davidson County Economic Development Commis-sion.

“Anytime a community ... has a facility that is vacant, it’s a positive to get something back in there that could produce revenue, can get people jobs and can help with the structure of the county,” said Wallburg Mayor Allen Todd. Todd and other offi cials contacted Wednesday would not release de-tails about Project Plus.

Serving as the town’s largest employer, Tyco Electronics em-ployed about 400 workers in Wall-burg at the time of its closure last October, town offi cials said. It once employed 1,400 employees at its peak, according to Googe.

“Right now, I can’t think of anything that’s more important

than creating jobs,” Councilman Steve Yokeley said. “In particu-lar, we have a huge building that’s empty, and I think right now the most important thing we could do is fi gure out a way to create jobs. That’s what this is doing.”

Members of the Town Council also say they don’t mind offering incentives for the fi rst time in the town’s history to bring the 500 jobs.

“As long as it’s done in the right way and right manner, I do not have a problem with it,” Yokeley said, adding that the incentives package would be contingent on the amount of jobs the company provides.

Under the agreement, the Town Council and commissioners would appropriate a combined $1.5 mil-lion for the purchase of the build-ing. The company would lease the building back through Davidson

County and Wallburg for $75,000 for 20 years. In return, Wallburg and Davidson County would com-bine for an economic development grant of $75,000 annually for 20 years, Googe said.

“As far as going along with Davidson County, we defi nitely want to be on board with David-son County and we want to create more jobs as well,” said Council-man Lynn Reece.

Town and county offi cials say the project’s identity likely will be released Tuesday night. Davidson County Commissioner Don Truell said the company is not related to Caterpillar, which announced its plans in July to build a parts plant for large mining machines in Winston-Salem and employ about 510 full-time and contract workers in fi ve years.

Woman robs bank, picks up kids at schoolGRANTS PASS, Ore.

(AP) – Police in south-ern Oregon say a wom-an charged with rob-bing a bank in Grants Pass stopped to pick up her children at school on the way home.

The Grants Pass Dai-ly Courier reported a woman walked into an Umpqua Bank branch

shortly after 2 p.m. Monday, handed the teller a note demand-ing cash, and then rode off in a car driven by a man.

Police say a witness description of the car and license plates led to the home of 37-year-old Erica F. Anderson, who was arrested on rob-

bery and theft charges after returning from picking up her daugh-ters at their elementary school.

Authorities say 19-year-old Joshua K. Deeter Tseu drove the car and was arrested on the same charges.

It was unclear if ei-ther has an attorney.

The authority has been seeking funding for the project since at least 2005, when Clara Cox Homes was demol-ished. The authority’s

COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) – The principal of a South Carolina high school where pipe bombs were discovered and dis-armed after a shooting confi rmed Wednesday that a second student was being questioned in the incident.

Socastee High School principal Paul Brown-ing said police asked the second student about the Tuesday afternoon event at the school in the north-east part of the state, and the student was released to his parents.

The incident began when a freshman con-fronted an on-campus offi cer and fi red a gun before being taken into custody, police said. Stu-dents were evacuated to a football fi eld and bomb squads removed and dis-armed the explosive de-vices.

The students returned to school Wednesday af-ter walking through met-al detectors, which will be used for the rest of the week.

Detectives also inter-viewed other students Wednesday about the in-cident and reports that comments had been post-ed on a social networking site before the shooting, Browning said. He could not confi rm that any of the comments came from the freshman.

School resource offi cer Erik Karney encountered the freshman Tuesday afternoon and the two got into a struggle, Horry County Police spokesman Sgt. Robert Kegler said. During the fi ght, the stu-dent shot at Karney, and while the bullet missed him, the offi cer was in-jured after it struck a wall, Kegler said.

Karney subdued the student and took him into custody. Karney was later treated and released from a hospital.

Police said they also found items “consistent with the construction of pipe bombs and other in-cendiary devices” at the freshman’s Myrtle Beach home.

The student has not been identifi ed because of his age. He is expected to ap-pear in Family Court in Conway on Friday, pros-ecutor Greg Hembree said.

Hembree intends to bring a charge of attempted mur-der against the teen and wants to prosecute him as an adult, though a judge will have to rule on such a request.

Suspect in death of NC chief’s daughter

to returnCHARLOTTE (AP)

– Authorities waited Wednesday for the re-turn of the man accused of killing a police chief’s daughter and the autopsy report that may force them to revisit an early murder charge.

Michael Neal Harvey, 34, was expected to re-turn to Charlotte within hours or days, Char-lotte-Mecklenburg Police spokeswoman Rosalyn Harrington said Wednes-day.

He was arrested in Niagara Falls, N.Y., on Monday after police is-sued an arrest warrant accusing him of murder in the death of Valerie Hamilton, 23. She was the daughter of Merl Hamilton, police chief of the Charlotte-area city of Concord.

Hamilton was seen leaving a Charlotte tav-ern with Harvey early in the morning of Sept. 15, police said. Witnesses said she appeared to be

leaving voluntarily.But detectives “found

evidence of drug usage”and heard from witnesseswho said Hamilton badlyneeded medical atten-tion, care that she nevergot, police said.

Harvey blamed Hamil-ton’s death on drugs.

“She overdosed in hersleep. This is not mur-der. This is not a murderat all,” he told report-ers Tuesday just beforedeclaring to a NiagaraCounty, N.Y., judge hewould not fi ght his extra-dition to North Carolina.

Harvey was arrestedat the home of longtimefriend Paul Maikranz,who said Harvey deniedkilling Hamilton andsaid it was a liaison gonewrong.

“He was out with thegirl Wednesday (morn-ing), they went to hishouse and you know theywere doing things andhis roommate walked inso they went and got a ho-tel room.

SC governor: Feds should let prisons jam devices

COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) – Flanked by dozens of wardens and a prison of-fi cer authorities say was nearly killed in an attack planned with a smuggled cell phone, Gov. Mark Sanford on Wednesday implored federal regula-tors to let South Carolina jam the signals of cell phones being used illic-itly by prisoners.

“If we leave the things the way that they are, the federal government is fundamentally perpetu-ating an injustice, on the people of this state, and frankly, the people of this nation,” Sanford said at a maximum security pris-on in Columbia.

Sanford urged the Fed-eral Communications Commission to act on a nearly two-year-old re-quest from Corrections Dept. Director Jon Oz-mint to conduct a pilot jamming program in-side a state prison. Oz-mint says 30 other states signed on to that request.

The FCC has taken no action and did not imme-diately comment Wednes-day. Regulators have said a 1934 law allows only fed-

eral agencies, not state or local ones, to jam public airwaves.

Sanford was joined by Capt. Robert Johnson, a 15-year Corrections vet-eran who oversaw efforts to keep contraband out of Lee Correctional In-stitution in Bishopville. Shot six times inside his home earlier this year in a hit state police say was planned using a smug-gled cell phone, Johnson says jamming could have saved him eight surgeries

and months of rehabilita-tion. “I don’t want some-one else to go through what I’ve gone through. ... I would like to tell the industry to come talk to me and get off their bot-tom dollar and do what’s right, and that is block cell phones,” said John-son, 57, who walks with a cane and does not know if he’ll go back to work as a prison guard.

CTIA-The Wireless As-sociation, which repre-sents cell phone compa-

nies, did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Authorities say Johnson is the fi rst U.S. corrections offi cer harmed by a hit or-dered from an inmate’s cell phone, but other peo-ple have been targets. A New Jersey inmate serv-ing time for shooting at two police offi cers used a smuggled phone in 2005 to order a fatal attack on his girlfriend, who had given authorities information leading to his arrest.

Guards fi nd cell phone inside NC inmate’s rear end

RALEIGH (AP) – North Carolina prison offi cials say an inmate from Raleigh tried to smuggle a cell phone into prison in his rear end.

Court documents ob-tained by The News & Observer of Raleigh show that 25-year-old Eric Chambers was charged after setting off metal detectors at Cen-tral Prison.

Chambers handed over a fl attened piece of metal hidden in his

mouth, but set off thedetectors again. That’swhen guards found thered-and-silver “fl ip-style” cell phone hiddenin his rectum.

Chambers was con-victed in 2008 of beinga habitual felon andsentenced to 10 yearsin prison. Investigatorssay he was using thephone as part of a drug-dealing operation.

It could not be im-mediately determinedWednesday if Chambershas a lawyer.

This photo taken Wednesday, outside Broad River Correctional Institution in Columbia, S.C., shows some of the thousands of cell phones South Carolina prison offi cials say are confi scated each month from the state’s prisons.

Two ultra-Orthodox Jewish men protect themselves inside a bus from Palestinian rioters outside Jerusalem’sOld City Wednesday. Violence erupted after a 32-year-old Palestinian laborer was killed by a private securityguard watching over Jewish families in the Silwan neighborhood in east Jerusalem.

Violence in east Jerusalem clouds peace efforts

JERUSALEM (AP) – Crowds of Palestinian youths violently ram-paged in east Jerusalem Wednes-day following the shooting death of a local man, clouding fragile peace efforts even as the Pales-tinian president signaled he may back away from threats to quit ne-gotiations if Israel resumes West Bank settlement construction.

At one point, Israeli riot police stormed the hilltop compound

known to Jews as the Temple Mount and to Muslims as the No-ble Sanctuary – the place where the last Palestinian uprising be-gan almost exactly 10 years ago.

That uprising – which killed thousands of people over some fi ve years of violence – erupted after a failed U.S.-led peace effort at Camp David. Wednesday’s out-burst comes less than a month af-ter the sides resumed peace nego-

tiations, at a tense moment whenthose talks are already facing pos-sible collapse over Israel’s plansto end its 10-month slowdown ofconstruction in the Jewish settle-ments of the West Bank.

Clashes erupted in the Silwanneighborhood shortly after a 32-year-old Palestinian man, SamirSirhan, was killed by a privateIsraeli security guard watchingover Jewish families in the area.

China premier calls for better ties with USNEW YORK (AP)

Relations between the two powers have suffered recently, and Wen’s comments ap-pear to be an effort to

s o o t h e anger in the Unit-ed States ahead of a meet-ing today with U.S. President

Barack Obama. The countries are

squabbling over a num-ber of economic, trade, military and diplomatic matters.

25 insurgents die in attack in AfghanistanKABUL, Afghanistan – Insurgents attacked a

NATO and Afghan army outpost in eastern Afghani-stan near the Pakistan border and at least 25 of the militants were killed in the resulting skirmish, of-fi cials said Wednesday.

Troops at the combat outpost in Spera district of Khost province returned fi re with mortars late Tuesday, killing 25 to 30 insurgents, NATO said in a statement. Initial reports found there were no civil-ian casualties, it said.

3 French employees kidnapped from shipLAGOS, Nigeria – Pirates armed with Kalashnikov

rifl es clashed with Nigerian navy forces in a failed bid to take over an offshore oil platform, then kidnapped three French employees of a marine services company while retreating, a Nigerian offi cial said Wednesday.

Navy Commodore David Nabaida said a Thai employee also may have been taken hostage by the pirates during the attack, which began early Wednes-day.

Lawmakers approve fl aming bull festivalsMADRID – Lawmakers who banned bullfi ghting in

Spain’s Catalonia region this summer voted Wednes-day to endorse other traditions that have been criticized as cruel to bulls, such as attaching burning sticks to their horns as they chase thrill seekers.

The vote will only affect the Catalonia region of northeast Spain, but it addresses another manifesta-tion of this country’s timeless fascination with bulls and the testing of people’s bravery with the animals.

Besieged militants battle Yemeni troopsSAN’A, Yemen – Al-Qaida militants holed up in a

village in south Yemen on Wednesday fought off re-peated attempts by troops backed by tanks and heavy artillery to retake the besieged town, offi cials said.

Thousands of people have fl ed Hawta and the sur-rounding area in Shabwa province since security forces laid siege to the village three days ago. The operation signals an escalation in the government’s U.S.-backed campaign to uproot the network’s local offshoot, known as al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula.

Experts: Flotilla raid broke international lawGENEVA – A report by three U.N.-appointed human

rights experts Wednesday said Israeli forces violated international law when they raided a Gaza-bound aid fl otilla killing nine activists earlier this year.

The U.N. Human Rights Council’s fact-fi nding mission concluded that Israel’s naval blockade of the Palestinian territory was unlawful because of the hu-manitarian crisis there, and described the military raid on the fl otilla as brutal and disproportionate.

Bomb attack kills 12 people in western IranTEHRAN, Iran – A bomb exploded at a military

parade in northwestern Iran on Wednesday, killing 12 spectators in an attack that one offi cial blamed on Kurdish separatists who have fought Iranian forces in the area for decades.

The blast in the city of Mahabad, close to the bor-ders with Iraq and Turkey, also wounded 75 people, Iranian media reports said. Most of the victims were women and children, said provincial Governor Va-hid Jalalzadeh.

CIA Afghan paramilitary force hunts militantsKABUL, Afghanistan – A U.S. offi cial in Washing-

ton confi rmed reports that the CIA is running an all-Afghan paramilitary group in Afghanistan that has been hunting al-Qaida, Taliban, and other militant targets for the agency.

A security professional in Kabul familiar with the operation said the 3,000-strong force was set up in 2002 to capture targets for CIA interrogation.

Police: Threat of attack on France hits peakPARIS – France is facing a “peak” terror threat, and

authorities suspect al-Qaida’s North African affi liate of plotting a conventional bomb attack on a crowded target, the national police chief said Wednesday.

The warning from National Police Chief Frederic Pechenard came on the eve of national protests that unions hope will send millions into city streets, and was the latest warning in a recent drumbeat from French offi cials that the public needs to be more alert.

– The heads of two Iowa egg farms linked to as many as 1,600 salmo-nella illnesses this sum-mer gave Congress few answers in testimony about the conditions at their farms Wednesday, as one executive would not testify and the other did not answer many of the lawmakers’ ques-tions.

The owner of Wright County Egg, Austin “Jack” DeCoster, said he was “horrifi ed” to learn that his products might have been the cause of the illnesses. The CEO of Hillandale Farms, Orland Bethel, cited his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimina-tion and did not answer questions.

Hillandale Farms and

Wright County Egg re-called a half-billion eggs in August after tests of products turned up po-tentially positive for the bacterium Salmonella enteritidis, the strain re-sponsible for the recent

outbreak. Wright Coun-ty Egg supplies feed and chickens to Hillandale.

Before lawmakers called Bethel to testify, two witnesses recounted how they were sickened by tainted eggs.

2 Ohio real estate agents killed; 1 robbedYOUNGSTOWN, Ohio (AP) –

Authorities say two real estate agents were killed and another was robbed in the past week in northeast Ohio.

Police say the robbery and one of the deaths appear to be related, and two brothers have been arrested.

Paul and Robert Brooks of

Youngstown are accused of robbing a woman who showed them an apartment in nearby Boardman Township on Sept. 15.

The Vindicator newspaper reports the body of another real estate agent was found in a burning home Monday night in Youngstown.

Boardman police Capt. Don-ald Hawkins says the cases are similar but the brothers have not been charged in the homi-cide.

Authorities say the body of a third agent was found Tuesday in a vacant house he was trying to sell in Portage County, about 40 miles west of Youngstown.

UNITED NATIONS (AP) – President Barack Obama on Wednesday de-fended U.S. aid to impov-erished people even dur-ing sour economic times at home yet promised a sterner approach, favor-ing nations that commit to democracy and eco-nomic revival.

Addressing world lead-ers, Obama offered no new commitments of U.S. dollars, but rather a blue-print of the development policy that will drive his government’s efforts and determine where the money fl ows. His mes-sage was that the United States wants to help coun-tries help themselves, not offer aid that provides short-term relief without reforming societies.

“That’s not develop-ment, that’s dependence,” Obama said. “And it’s a cycle we need to break. Instead of just managing poverty, we have to offer nations and people a path out of poverty.”

Obama spoke at a ma-jor anti-poverty summit convened by the United Nations, one day ahead of his main speech to the U.N. General Assembly. The president is in the midst of a three-day trip to the U.N. for its annual meeting.

World leaders on Wednesday were wrap-ping up an intensive review of the poverty re-duction goals adopted 10 years ago.

Pipeline explosion death toll climbs to 7SAN FRANCISCO (AP) – Of-

fi cials on Wednesday confi rmed the deaths of three members of a family from a pipeline explosion that ripped through a residential suburb, bringing the total number of victims to seven.

Investigators used DNA to iden-tify Lavonne Bullis, 85, and her son Gregory Bullis, 50, as victims of the Sept. 9 blast. Gregory Bullis’ son, William James Bullis, 17, was

identifi ed after an examination of remains found at the family’s home in San Bruno.

Staff worked quickly to make the identifi cations, said San Mateo County coroner Robert Foucrault. The state Department of Justice’s missing persons unit performed the DNA tests.

Four other people died in the ex-plosion nearly two weeks ago: Jac-queline Greig, 44, and her 13-year-

old daughter Janessa Greig; their neighbor, Elizabeth Torres, 81, and 20-year-old Jessica Morales.

Four injured people remained at Saint Francis Memorial Hospi-tal’s burn unit; three were in criti-cal condition, and one was stable, a hospital spokeswoman said.

The National Transportation Safety Board was investigating the cause of the explosion that lev-eled nearly 40 homes.

Xavier was only four years old on the day his mother was killed in a tragic accident in 2007. Fortunately, his loving grandmother was able to assume custody of Xavier and his two siblings, now ages 13 and 3. Hospice of the Piedmont, a United Way partner agency, provided the family with grief counseling to help them all cope. The YWCA also stepped in with scholarships for the children to attend the summer programs and after-school programs. “If it wasn’t for the YWCA and all the help they have given us, I don’t know how I could do it,” says Xavier’s grandmother. Xavier, now a second grader at Kirkman Park, has learned to swim and says he really likes the fun activities at the YWCA --- especially the cookouts and a special trip to the NC Zoo! Xavier’s

grandmother is simply thankful he is getting help with his homework after school, in a safe and

fun environment. This is possible because of your support of United Way and the

programs offered by The YWCA, so on behalf of Xavier and his grateful family, thank you!

I have a good idea. When they catch the people who burn or throw acid on dogs, let’s tie them to a tree and do the same to them!

Any comments? I think not. When I see a young man walk-

ing down the street with a pit bull on a leash, I think “There goes an animal leading an animal.” People who fi ght dogs or any animal have given up their rights to be called human, and if more people like me were in charge, they would get their just rewards.

Do I sound hardhearted? I am when it comes to protecting the elderly, children and animals. If children don’t have a good role model at home, you better believe that the streets will give them one.

I can’t say what I started to type in this letter about animal abus-ers, but I think most people know what I would have said and the paper couldn’t have printed it.

High Point needs new ideas

that Wagner would bring

I read Elijah Lovejoy’s column Sept. 16, “Who will unite High Point’s competing districts?” He quoted Tom Terrell’s comments Sept. 5 that revitalization of High Point’s “downtown” will not hap-pen. Why does Terrell say that? What gives him the authority to make such a profound statement?

This town is so far behind it is going to take a long time to rebuild and recover what has already been lost. It seems as though our current leaders like the situation the way it is now. It is a shame and disgrace there is so little to do here. It is no wonder our people go to other cities to shop or dine out. People who claim they are making good

decisions for this city should get off their behinds and talk to the people.

Nov. 2 is on the way, and we have a young man running for mayor. His name is Jay Wagner. He seems to have wonderful ideas for a better tomorrow for the city and the people here. His ideas are young and full of promise, ideas that we the people have longed for for sometime – to fi ll up the empty spaces in the furniture showrooms vacated by those com-panies that have little regard for our city. He wants to revitalize the downtown as well as Up-towne. His vision is a better town to live and play, a place where industry would like to come and stay because this city has a lot to offer.

I can only hope and pray that on Nov. 2 people who have want-

ed a better High Point will con-sider who will do our city justice. We need someone who will unite not only Uptowne but downtown High Point to make this town a shining example for industry and a great place to raise a family.

YOUR VIEW---

I t was once a staple plot of TV westerns:There’s been a vicious killing. Every-

body knows who did it – or thinks they know – and the posse wants to string the var-mint up. No need for the bother of a trial. The crime was outrageous, people are furious. So get the rope, fi nd a tree.

Watching, you’d be glad we’ve moved beyond frontier justice, glad the howling of the mob can no longer stampede us into condemning an innocent man.

Anthony Graves would beg to differ. In 1992, he was arrested for a multiple murder that roiled the tiny Texas town of Somerville. A 45-year-old woman, her 16-year-old daugh-ter, and four children, all younger than 10, had been beaten, stabbed and shot to death and their home torched.

No physical evidence linked Graves to the crime. He had no motive to butcher six strangers. Three witnesses placed him at home at the time of the murders.

And in the end, it didn’t matter. Graves was convicted and sentenced to die solely on the word of one Robert Carter, father of one of the murdered children. Carter had shown up to his son’s funeral with his hands, neck and ears heavily bandaged, the result, he said, of having accidentally burned himself while doing yard work.

Questioned by authorities, he said he had driven Graves, his cousin by marriage, to the victims’ house and sent him up to the door af-ter Graves asked if Carter knew any women. Carter, who had just been slapped with a paternity suit for his now-dead son, claimed Graves, for some unknown reason, simply went berserk.

Eventually, Carter backed off that story, saying he alone was responsible for the crime. Over the years, he would say repeat-edly – including at his execution in 2000 – that he had lied. Anthony Graves had noth-ing to do with it.

And that would not matter, either.The tale is recounted in the new issue of

Texas Monthly magazine (www.texasmonth-ly.com). To read Pamela Colloff’s report is to be sobered by the degree to which public outrage still drives death penalty decisions.

It was an awful crime and people “needed” to see someone punished for it. Indeed,

Somerville mayor Tanya Roush told the Austin Ameri-can Statesman that her town was impatient with the idea of a trial. “They’re saying, ‘Bring back the hangin’ tree, and save the taxpayers’ money.’ ”

“There was a lot of pres-sure in this community to get convictions,” says Colloff. “No one stopped along the way and said, ‘Hey, wait a minute. Does this case make any sense?’ It just kept moving forward.”

And because it did, Anthony Graves – 26 when he was arrested, 45 now – has lost years he can never get back. He may yet lose his life. What has happened and “is” happening to him is obscene. Graves is a victim of, and may yet become a martyr to, that need to see someone punished. Unfortunately, there is often an inverse relationship between that need and justice. The more you have of the former, the less likely you are to fi nd the latter.

And having condemned this man on evidence so fl imsy as to profane the very notion of justice, prosecutors apparently fi nd it impossible to back down and admit the self-evident. So Graves, who won a retrial in 2006 after 12 years on death row, will return to court in February where the DA will try to convict him again.

We stand witness to a monstrous wrong perpetrated out of that vestigial sense of frontier justice in the American psyche which says some crimes are so heinous they demand we bypass niggling questions of evidence, motive, proof, even fairness, on the way to the hanging tree. Some crimes leave communities outraged and demanding pun-ishment and there are those who say those emotions are the reason we must put people to death.

Actually, they are a pretty good reason we should not.

T he Phillips Collection, a High Point fur-nishings and design company, certain-ly eliminated a potential headache for

High Point City Council, and probably the company itself, when its offi cials withdrew a request this week for a $100,000 incentives grant from the city.

A hearing on the request had been sched-uled by City Council this week, but it was canceled after Phillips Collection offi cials withdrew the request. The Phillips Collec-tion, however, will continue with its plans to move from a Kivett Drive location to the old Rose Furniture building on Finch Avenue in south High Point.

The request for incentives had generated a number of questions about the city’s incen-tives policy and even had drawn the atten-tion of a North Carolina-based group that is critical of state and local moves to grant in-centives for economic development. The in-centives request also had put into a bad light the idea of creating a furniture and accesso-ries design center incubator in conjunction with moving the business.

Phillips Collection offi cials made the right call to withdraw the incentives request and to make the move to new facilities without tying that to the use of any local incentives. Mark Phillips, president and CEO, said the original project has now been divided into two phases, with the move to Finch Avenue being Phase 1 and not requiring fi nancial as-sistance.

The idea of creating a furniture industry design incubator in the business’ new loca-tion – which we see as a positive endeavor to pursue – is still a priority with company of-fi cials, Phillips said. It is likely that the idea will come to City Council at another time in a separate request for funding, and that is as it should be.

When Phillips Collection offi cials return to City Council, they would be wise to have the incubator proposal fully developed so city offi cials and the public can take a thorough look to evaluate it. A detailed plan of action for the idea could fi nd favor in City Council chambers and in the public at large. In fact, if this proposal is done right and is success-ful, it might prove to be the prototype for similar incubators for other types of small businesses. And we all know the importance of small businesses to our economy.

THE HIGH POINT ENTERPRISE THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 2010 www.hpe.com 7A

A new study in the journal Psychological Science says that people who

spend a lot of their day talk-ing to friends and loved ones are much happier than silent types. In fact, it says the hap-piest people engage in both idle chitchat and several deep conversations per day.

That is no surprise to me. I treasure conversation with friends and family, and Gralyn will attest to the fact that I try to have several a day!

Children, however, are not all born with the instinctive knowledge of how to make friends. For some, it seems to come naturally, but many chil-dren struggle to relate to their peers in meaningful ways that lead to having friends. I fi nd each year that I have several students who are sorely lack-ing in the social skills neces-sary to make friends.

So what can teachers and parents do to help children with the process of making friends? Here are a few ideas that may be helpful. First, young children have to be taught about personal space. I have a young student who seems to love other students, but she always hugs too tightly, sits too close, and touches when not appropriate. As part of the teaching of “if you want a friend, be a friend,” she and many other young students must learn to respect the person and personal space of others.

Teach a child to smile in a friendly way to at least one new person every day. This works for all children – even the shy ones. And you know that a smile is most always a welcome sight and can often be the ideal icebreaker.

Then teach a child to smile and to greet others. When I have hall duty at school, I try to greet children with a “Good

morning,” but some will look the other way and not even speak! We have to teach students that active listen-ing is a social skill. It is impor-tant to look at theperson talking to you, smile or nod, and respond appropriately.

Teach a child the art of polite questioning. It is a great way to learn about others, fi nd common interests, and build friendships. Once they begin to ask questions as simple as “What games do you like to play?” or “What’s your favorite book?” they will quickly see how polite ques-tions can open the doors to newrelationships.

Parents can create a circle of friends for young children by encouraging playtime and play-dates with a few select peers. Sometimes kids just need a jumpstart and the opportunity to have some fun together.

Most importantly, it is cru-cial for us as adults to model being a good friend or a good neighbor for our children. Consider taking a child along the next time you do a kind deed for someone else. Let them see what thinking of oth-ers, being helpful, and being caring looks like. Learning by example is a wonderful thing!

So the next time you are feel-ing a bit down and depressed, I have a suggestion: Call a friend and have a little idle chitchat and/or meaningful conversation. It will do you a world of good!

I would like to mention a few facts about the vari-ous factions competing in

the upcoming national elec-tion. Although I could list a litany of errors concerning the present administration, I will limit my comments to the broader issues.

This nation was founded on the principles of personal freedom and responsibility. I will admit the problem of slavery was glossed over be-cause of the compromises dif-ferent people made in bring-ing all concerned to the table. My purpose is not to qualify the rightness or wrongness of this course of action. How-ever, the Constitution was written and ratifi ed by the requisite states and became the law of the land. Each and every president elected has placed his hand on a Bible and sworn to uphold the prin-ciples therein.

There have been a few, who through extra-legal means or outright impu-

nity have tried to evade the restrictions placed upon the federal government by this document. None with such outright arrogance as the present offi ceholder. He has used his power and Democratic congressional super-majority to fl agrantly violate any number of checks and balances that were put in place to specifi cally prohibit such evasions. And yet every speech he gives he says the Republicans are thwarting the programs and policies he knows will relieve the pres-ent malaise. Why would he deliberately lie and say this, if he has the requisite votes of his own party to pass any legislation he proposes? This is only the latest of the obfus-cations and untruths foisted upon the American people. Although he and his czars, (people he has placed in posi-tions of authority without the express confi rmation of the U.S. Senate as the Constitu-

tion requires,) think we are stupid and in need of their expertise, I beg to differ.

So, I implore you, my fellow citizens, to go to the polls on Nov. 2 and vote for any candidate who professes an understanding of our republi-can form of government. Cast your vote for any candidate who expresses a desire to return our nation to its fi scal commitments, any candidate who exhibits a character of uprightness, any candidate who understands the value of humility, any candidate who realizes that the great-est nation on Earth deserves leaders that know the dif-ference between service and servitude, any candidate who understands the truly basic difference between a slavish acquiescence to the current idea that all wisdom originates in Washington, or a government of citizen legislators, who work for the good of us all.

Patrol: Tour driver smoked pot day beforeSALT LAKE CITY (AP) – A tour bus

driver smoked marijuana heavily for several days before falling asleep at the wheel and crashing in Utah, killing three Japanese tourists and injuring 11 other passengers, according to an ar-rest report released Wednesday.

Yasushi Mikuni, 26, was charged with10 felony counts of negligent driving underthe influence and one misdemeanor chargeof having marijuana residue in his system.

Mikuni also faces misdemeanor logbookviolation and unsafe lane-change chargesin the rollover bus crash Aug. 9 on I-15.

Study backs new heart valveWASHINGTON (AP)

– Thousands of older Americans who need new heart valves but are too frail to survive the surgery might soon get a chance at an easier op-

tion – a way to thread in an artifi cial aortic valve without cracking their chests.

The aortic valve is the heart’s main doorway, and a major new study

found that snaking a new one in through an artery signifi cantly improved the chances that patients with no other treatment options would survive at least a year.

WASHINGTON (AP) – Drugmaker Abbott Labo-ratories said Wednesday it is recalling millions of containers of its best-sell-ing Similac infant formu-la that may be contami-nated with insect parts.

The voluntary action affects up to 5 million Similac-brand powder formulas sold in the U.S., Puerto Rico, Guam and some Caribbean coun-tries. The company said the products may contain a small beetle or larvae, which could cause stom-ach ache and digestion problems.

The recall does not af-fect any liquid formulas or other Abbott-brand products.

A company spokeswom-an said Abbott uncovered the insects last week in one section of a Michigan manufacturing plant.

BY DARRICK IGNASIAKENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

DAVIDSON COUNTY – Eco-nomic development is a key issue emerging in the campaign for seats on the Davidson County Board of Commissioners.

Candidates honed in on the topic during a recent political forum at Pied-mont Crossing Retirement Community in Thomas-ville.

This November, eight candidates are vying for the four seats on the board. Republican incum-bents Sam Watford and Billy Joe Kepley, as well as Republican candidate Todd Yates, participated in the forum. Democrat candidate Jason Hedrick also attended the forum, while fellow Democrat candidates Ronald Swice-good, Jeff Switzer and Kevin Williams were not in attendance.

Republican incumbent Don Truell also did not participate in the forum.

“I want to do everything I can to promote Davidson County, help Davidson County grow and help peo-ple in Davidson County who are unemployed right now,” Hedrick said. “I be-lieve we can once again thrive like we did when Lexington Furniture was in its heyday and we had 10,000 jobs in downtown (Lexington).”

Noting that jobs will not come right away, Hedrick said Davidson County should recruit large busi-nesses but also look at ex-isting and new small busi-nesses.

“We need to nurture that and try to help those people as well,” he said “I think that’s going to be our largest chance of growth with the small businesses around here.”

Yates and Hedrick agreed that commission-ers need to look at pro-viding sewer to all of the major interchanges in Da-vidson County.

“We do need infrastruc-ture at interchanges,” Yates said. “... David-son County needs about 10 miles of sewer to our major intersections to get some retail business there. We can do that. I think the citizens would want us to do that. We need to start now. It takes time to implement this in-frastructure.”

Kepley, a farmer, said agriculture will be a key component of the econo-my of Davidson County for years to come. He said farmers’ markets and seasonal crops add to the economy.

“The small farmers have these avenues that they can make a little bit of pocket money,” Kepley said. “I myself have about 100 acres. I have about 20 or 30 acres of hay crops. I sell hay. That is a boost for me and my family.”

Watford also provided his take on the economy.

“The future will look a whole lot like our past,” he said. “Forty percent of our work force leaves the county every day for work ... I don’t see that chang-ing.”

Allegiant expands PTIA service to Florida

ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

GREENSBORO – Alle-giant will begin serving a third destination in Florida from Piedmont Triad International Air-port in November, the airline announced this week.

Allegiant will provide new, nonstop jet service between PTIA and the Fort Myers, Fla., metro-politan area beginning Nov. 18. The company will mark the new ser-vice to the Charlotte County Airport, which is on the southwest Flor-ida coast, with limited, introductory fares as low as $39.99 each way.

Allegiant’s new ser-vice adds to its existing destinations between PTIA and the Orlando and Tampa Bay, Fla., metropolitan airports.

“We are pleased to see Allegiant increasing ser-

vice and hope the travel-ers from across the Pied-mont Triad will support our new low-fare des-tination,” said Henry Isaacson, chairman of the Piedmont Triad Air-port Authority. “This is a welcome development in passenger service,

and we hope this is the beginning of a substan-tial upward trend.”

The new fl ights will operate twice weekly between PTIA, with service Thursdays and Sundays. Flights will depart PTIA at 2 p.m., arriving at Charlotte

County Airport at 3:50 p.m.

Flights leaving Char-lotte County Airport will depart at 1:10 p.m., arriving at PTIA at 3 p.m. The carrier will utilize a full-size, 150-seat MD-80 jet on the route.

Pillars of FameBY PAT KIMBROUGH


HIGH POINT – Two former resi-dents of city public housing projects were honored Wednes-day for rising from humble ori-gins to lives of achievement and service.

Angela Grace McGill and Keith D. McInnis Sr. were rec-ognized with the High Point Housing Authority’s Pillars of Fame award. The two were se-lected from a pool of nominees composed of former public housing residents who over-came obstacles and became suc-cessful leaders and pillars of the community.

During a ceremony at Astor Dowdy Towers, portraits of Mc-Gill and McInnis were unveiled on columns near those of past winners of the award, which the authority established in 2006 as

a way to present images of role models to serve as inspiration to community youth.

“It is good to know there are individuals out there who look at not just their circumstances from whence they came but work throughout their lives so that they can do better for themselves and their children,” said City Councilwoman Ber-nita Sims, a past winner of the award.

McGill lived in the Carson Stout, Daniel Brooks, Clara Cox and Springfi eld housing com-munities at various points in her life before going to work at the housing authority in 2003, where she rose to the position of chief operating offi cer. Now ex-ecutive director of the Rocking-ham Housing Authority, McGill said the negative stereotypes of public housing residents held by the general public can rein-

force hopelessness or serve as motivation to rise above obsta-cles.

“Growing up in public hous-ing has been the catalyst for my drive in life. It doesn’t mat-ter where you live, but where you’re going,” she said. “I have a lot of great memories. There was a true sense of community and a true sense of family.”

McInnis, a teacher at Parkland High School in Winston-Salem who spent part of his childhood in Clara Cox and Daniel Brooks homes, said his father aban-doned the family when he was a small child, and he credited his mother with being a major guiding force in his life.

“She always made me believe I could conquer the world, that I could do anything I set my mind to,” he said.

FORT BRAGG (AP) – The garrison com-mander at Fort Bragg says it may be early next year before an investigation into unexplained infants deaths at the base is complete.

The Fayetteville Observer reports that Col. Stephen Sicin-ski gave the news to soldiers and family members at a Tues-day meeting on the base.

Sicinski says it may be February before all the lab testing in the investigation is complete.

The military and other government agencies are looking into the unexplained deaths of 10 infants in housing on the base since 2007.

Foul play is not sus-pected in any of the deaths. Investigators have not yet found a potential environ-mental cause.

Sicinski says the length of the inves-tigation shows how thorough the Army is being.

Special-needs kids build bridges of understanding

D ear Abby: As the mother of a child with special needs,

my heart goes out to “Boiling Mad in New Jersey” (July 23). My daughter, “Kate,” is also stared at in public. I, too, used to bristle at the un-wanted attention, until I began to open up and talk with people. I found most of them to be com-passionate and merely curious. Sometimes see-ing Kate triggered their memory of a loved one who was affected by a similar challenge.

As often as I can, I take the time to do mini “pub-lic service announce-ments” and chat with folks who linger, look or approach. It’s a great way to build a bridge between disabled individuals, who have much to teach, and the non- disabled, who have much to learn. The kids are my favorites. They’ll openly ask what everyone wants to know and say what others are afraid to risk saying.

Kate is 16 now, beauti-ful inside and out. She’s pure, loves uncondition-ally and always forgives. She’s our teacher. Please tell “Boiling Mad” that time heals some of the rawness of a fresh diag-nosis, and if she’ll try to fi nd the best in others, she’ll usually be right. – Happier Now in Wash-ington State

Dear Happier: Thank you for your insightful letter. You are among many readers who shared similar views on transforming a “staring session” into a positive opportunity. Read on:

Dear Abby: I worked with special-needs children for a number

of years. I actu-ally believe that it is good when people stare. It gives us a chance to help the child learn social skills.

Would “Boiling Mad” prefer everyone pretend her son doesn’t exist? How horrible to isolate him like that. It’ll make him miserable. The people looking aren’t mean, they’re just human. Chil-dren like to be looked at; it makes them feel important.

Her precious little boy doesn’t have only disabilities. He has abili-ties, too, and developing them should be the focus of every activity she does with him. She’ll be amazed at and proud of his growth. – Kathy in Knoxville

Dear Abby: My child has moderate autism spectrum disorder. Al-though he looks like ev-eryone else, his extreme behavior brings stares and comments (mostly about my parenting). I now regard it as an opportunity to educate them about autism. I hand them a card ex-plaining it that contains a link to the Autism Society of America.

This tactic, rather than ignoring people, is the way to go. If more people educated oth-ers, the stares and rude comments would become smiles and support. – Jon in Beavercreek, Ohio

Dear Abby: I’m

one of those folks who “stare” at others. By no means is there ever a bad intent. I’m a people-watcher. I love watching people communicate in different ways, like sign-ing. Whether someone is in a wheelchair or has a visible disability, I value each and every person.

Maybe “Boiling Mad” doesn’t understand that many of us are willing to reach out, lend a hand or just be friendly. I wish to embrace, not ignore, and I hope my behavior isn’t perceived to be offensive. – Well-meaning And Open

Dear Abby: As par-ents of a daughter with Down syndrome, we of-ten saw people – mostly children – who couldn’t take their eyes off our Sara. When she asked us why they were star-ing and we told her it was because she was so beautiful, she decided to do them a favor and introduce herself. In crowded amusement park lines and outdoor events she’d walk over and say, “Hi. I’m Sara. What’s your name?” We have had many great conversations with total strangers and met new friends this way over the past 23 years. Today, Sara and her mom speak at conferences all over the world promoting the hiring of people with disabilities. – Proud Dad in Virginia DEAR ABBY is written by Abi-gail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.

In this June 2009 fi le photo taken from video, a Burmese python is shown in the snake pit at the Savannah River Ecology Lab in South Carolina where scientists are collecting pythons for study. Researchers say a new study shows that Burmese pythons that have made their home in Florida’s Everglades are unlikely to survive as far north as South Carolina.

Study: Burmese pythons unlikely to survive in SC

AIKEN, S.C. (AP) – Researchers say a new study shows that Burmese pythons that have made their home in Florida’s Everglades are unlikely to survive as far north as South Carolina.

The Aiken Standard

reported Wednesday that none of the 10 pythons tracked by researchers at the Savannah River Ecology Lab in South Carolina survived the winter here. All died last December from hypo-thermia.

But the study also notes that last winter’s temperatures were un-usually cold. Research-ers say the pythons may have survived a milder winter and could eventu-ally migrate north from Florida.

The yearlong study was a collaboration joint study between Davidson College and the Univer-sity of Georgia.

It was published online Wednesday in the scien-tifi c journal Biological Invasions.

ALL ABOARD! Trains set for mountain excursions.

Q uestion: I would like to mulch around my trees and shrubs and

have some free materials available. Can walnut hulls be used for mulch? Each fall I have gobs of them and never know what to do with them. Also, I have lots of sawdust and wood chips but have heard they can rob nitrogen from plants.

Answer: The hulls from black walnuts can be chal-lenging to deal with. They contain a chemical plant inhibitor (juglone) that can restrict the growth of some plants, such as tomatoes and cabbage.

Compost the hulls for about three months before using them as a mulch. Partial decomposition of the hulls will oxidize the juglone, making them safe to use on plants.

As for the carbon-rich woody wastes, they should not compete with plants for nitrogen if they are placed on the soil surface around plants. However, these materials should not be mixed into soil without ex-tra nitrogen fertilizer Use wood chips and sawdust to mulch trees and shrubs where the soil is not tilled and the mulch stays on the surface.

Sawdust is safest to use as a mulch if it is not fresh and has had six months to a year to age. In fact, it is probably safer all the way around if you allow wood

Broken hearts are realD ear Dr. Donohue:

Last December, my husband called the

paramedics when I did not respond to him. They rushed me to the hospital when I began convuls-ing. I have no recollec-tion of any of this. When I woke one week later, I was in the ICU. I was told that I had broken heart syndrome. I also was told it has to do with blood pressure. Can you con-fi rm that there is such a thing? – A.

Broken heart syn-drome is for real. It’s a recent addition to the catalog of illnesses. Japanese doctors fi rst described it, and called it Tako-tsubo cardiomy-opathy. Cardiomyopathy is a heart illness that affects the heart muscle, not the heart arteries or heart valves.

The classical case is one where a person develops severe chest discomfort preceded by physical or emotional stress. The emotional stress could be the unex-pected death of a loved one. An EKG shows a pattern that replicates the pattern of a heart attack. The heart’s func-tion is greatly compro-mised. It doesn’t pump blood like it should, and that can lower blood pressure. Seizures are not included in the list of symptoms. However, a drop in blood pressure also drops the fl ow of blood to the brain. That can trigger seizures.

The explanation for this is a surge in the body’s stress chemicals that affect heart func-

tion. Damage to the heart muscle isn’t per-manent. The heart returns to good health in a matter of weeks.

You didn’t

mention any prior stress. Do you recollect any?

On the plus side, your heart arteries are in good shape, and you ought not to suffer a recurrence.

Dear Dr. Donohue: Recently a friend passed away from Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. The total course of the disease took about 10 weeks, although some recall subtle changes earlier. This has been described as human mad cow disease, or very rapid Alzheimer’s. What can you tell us about it? – T.H.

It’s an infection due to a new kind of germ, one that is totally protein. No other living thing, if this truly is living, is com-posed only of protein. The germ is called a pri-on. When it fi nds its way into the brain, it causes a rapidly progressive and profound dementia. The prion might have been there for decades, however, before signs appear. It is a truly rare disease that occurs in all parts of the world. Most of the time, it is fatal in a short time, about one year. No medicine stops its progress or improves

its symptoms. Transmis-sion of CJ disease to family members living under the same roof as the patient has not been described.

Dear Dr. Donohue: My granddaughter, 15 years old, has been diag-nosed with Ehlers-Dan-los syndrome. How will this affect her future? She is now receiving physical therapy for her shoulder. – J.T.

Exceedingly stretch-able skin, joints that can bend far past the normal range of motion and fragile blood vessels are the major features of Ehlers- (AY-lerz) Danlos (dawn-LOS) syndrome. Actually, “syndrome” should be in the plural. There are six variations of it. All of them have a genetic basis. The problem lies in collagen. It’s not the normal kind of collagen. Collagen is the body’s cement and building material. Since your granddaughter was diagnosed at a relatively older age, I take that to mean she has one of the less-serious forms of the illness. If my assumptionis correct, her future should not be compro-mised. Was her shoulder dislocated? That com-monly happens to joints of these patients.

You can reach the Ehlers-Danlos National Foundation on the Inter-net at www.ednf.org. The foundation provides peo-ple with in-depth infor-mation and advises them of any new developments in treatment. Contact it. You’ll be happy you did.

Fox crowns new ‘American Idol’ judgesINGLEWOOD, Calif.

(AP) – Jennifer Lopez and Steven Tyler will join Randy Jackson as “American Idol” judges next season, after months of turnover and specula-tion about the future of TV’s top-rated show.

With pomp rivaling that of a U.S. Supreme Court appointment, Fox fi nally assembled the new pieces of the “Idol” panel that will be re-turned to its original three-member format for season 10.

Actress-singer-dancer Lopez and Aerosmith frontman Tyler will have the job of trying to match the offbeat chemistry of former judges Simon Cowell and Paula Abdul.

Atlanta megachurch pastor denies sex with young men

ATLANTA (AP) – The prominent pastor of a 25,000-member mega-church near Atlanta denies allegations in a lawsuit that he coerced three young men from the congregation into a sexual relationship, his attorney said.

Lawyers for two of the men, now 20 and 21, fi led the lawsuit Tuesday in DeKalb County Court against Bishop Eddie Long. The third lawsuit was fi led Wednesday. The Associated Press generally does not iden-tify people who say they were victims of sexual impropriety.

P r e s i -d e n t George W. Bush and three for-mer presi-dents vis-ited the sprawling

New Birth Missionary Baptist Church in the Atlanta suburb of Litho-nia for the 2006 funeral of Coretta Scott King.

The men who sued were 17 and 18 years old when they say Long abused his spiritual authority to seduce them with cars, money, clothes, jewelry, international trips and access to celebrities.

GURU WANTED----NEW YORK

(AP) – Not con-tent to simply offer viewers news and a little entertainment, “Good Morn-ing America” now wants to dispense some advice.

ABC’s morn-ing show said Monday it is starting a na-tionwide search for a “21st-cen-tury advice guru” who can offer perspective on vexing family or professional problems.

The new advice expert, who would dispense answers on the air and through the show’s web-site, is akin to a “Dear Abby” for TV, said Jim Murphy, execu-tive producer of “GMA.” The show is accept-ing applications and will turn its search into part of the show, he said.

Senior staff will sift through the applications and come up with some fi nalists for tryouts. Viewers will be invited to let ABC know of their favorites as the process con-tinues, he said.

He’s not sure who will be interested in the full-time job, whether there are people with television experi-ence or ambi-tious newcomers or some combi-nation of both.

“It would be just awesome if some fabulous high-school guid-ance counselor gets a break like this,” Murphy said.

He said the job would fi ll a niche at network morn-ing shows and also help “Good Morning Ameri-ca” establish its online presence, where the advice guru would write a regular column taking questions from viewers.

‘Hawaii Five-0’ upgrades to modern timesMARK NIESSE

ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER

H ONOLULU – The elite crime-fi ghting team of “Hawaii

Five-0” is back in the islands – this time with more bikinis, fewer stiff suits and a remix of the series’ classic theme song.

The remake of the leg-endary series, which ran for 12 seasons from 1968 to 1980, debuted Monday at 10 p.m. on CBS with a legacy to live up to.

Like the original hit show, the new version’s cop team hunts down criminals, often ending with the catch phrase “Book ’em, Danno!”

But the rebooted ver-sion aims to add more witty banter, character back story and edginess to the formulaic detective

work of the fi rst series, which preceded a gen-eration of crime dramas such as “Magnum, P.I.” and “Law & Order.”

“You can do great action, and we do,” said executive producer Peter Lenkov. “But what’s fresh and different is the character development and humor.”

Filmed onsite in Hawaii, “Hawaii Five-0” aims to appeal to viewers by tak-ing them to island scenes shot at sun-soaked beaches and landmark locations including Pearl Harbor, Iolani Palace and Waikiki.

Alex O’Loughlin is replacing the original Detective Steve McGar-

rett, played by Jack Lord. As a former Navy SEAL, the new McGar-rett has been recruited by Hawaii’s governor to lead a task force against criminals and terrorists intruding into the United States through its Pacifi c islands.

“He’s part mercenary, and his tactics are pretty crazy. He does whatever he needs to do to get the job done,” O’Loughlin said during a break from fi lming on site in Hono-lulu. “We have respect for what came before us, but we’re not drawing from the old show.”

Unlike his predecessor, O’Loughlin is more likely to go into a suspect’s house wearing a bullet-proof vest, guns blazing. The Australian actor has Lord’s big shoes to fi ll

after previously playing the lead in “Three Riv-ers” and “Moonlight.”

Alongside McGarrett is sidekick Danny “Danno” Williams (Scott Caan), a by-the-book detective who’s less than pleased with McGarrett’s full-speed-ahead attitude.

“I don’t think that he’s a bad guy or anything,” said Caan, who has ap-peared on “Entourage.”

“I just think he’s cra-zy,” he said. “That sets up the butting of heads and the personality clash.”

Rounding out the four-member team are characters Chin Ho Kelly and Kono Kalakaua. Both were part of the original series, but this time they should get more promi-nent roles because the show won’t rely as much on McGarrett alone.

Yesterday’s Puzzle SolvedThursday, Sept. 23, 2010CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Jason

Alexander, 51; Bruce Springsteen, 61; Mary Kay Place, 63; Mickey Rooney, 90

HAPPY BIRTHDAY: Go with the fl ow if you want to make progress this year. There will be lots of opportunity if you are not trying to do the impossible. Simplify your thinking and practice moderation. Emotions will be close to the surface, making this an ideal year to face problems, resolve old issues and move in a new direction. Your num-bers are 9, 16, 25, 28, 32, 39, 46

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Restrictions, frus-trations and delays will lead to emotional reactions and unwanted changes. Don’t fi ght the inevitable. It’s what you are trying to hold on to that is hold-ing you back. Instead, look forward with optimism. ★★★

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Put your effort into your relationships with people who have something to offer you, instead of those who are always taking. Put pressure on anyone who owes you fi nancially or otherwise. Stand up for your rights. ★★★

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You may think you have the help of someone but, before passing along a job that requires detail and a deadline, consider taking care of it on your own. You will not be able to count on others. Steady work will result in prog-ress. ★★★★

CANCER (June 21-July 22): If you don’t take advantage of the opportunities being made avail-able, someone will take advantage of you. Procras-tination will be your downfall. Love and romance are in the stars, so plan something special. ★★

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Push for what you want. There are opportunities available, but not if you sit at home. A personal problem will develop with someone who expects too much from you. Equality will be a must for a partnership. ★★★

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): There is a change in your fi nancial situation that will lead to an op-portunity to make a move or change the way you live. Love is in the picture and you will make the relationship you are currently in better or, if sin-gle, fi nd someone able to reciprocate emotionally. ★★★

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You cannot let any-one walk all over you, even if you want to maintain the peace. Change may be necessary when it comes to friends, peers or even relatives if you want to overcome an emotional situation that is getting you down. ★★★

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): A passionate ap-proach to love, work and your surroundings will bring you high rewards. Putting your heart and soul into what you believe in and making what-ever changes are necessary to hone your skills will be the route to take. ★★★

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You’ll be torn between what you should do and what you want to do. Diplomacy coupled with a little budgeting and know-how will allow you to charm your way into any situation you feel will aid you in getting your own way. ★★★★★

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Expect to be burdened with responsibilities due to someone else’s mistake or inability to fulfi ll a promise. Ul-timately, it will help enhance your reputation and seal a deal you’ve been working on. ★★

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Hard work on your part will make the difference as to how your future will unfold. Formulate a plan that allows you to promote a skill you enjoy. Physical restric-tions may get you down if you overdo it. Put time aside for love. ★★★★

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): An emotional mat-ter must be dealt with if you want to move forward. It may be time to let go of the past. A love relation-ship can help you out fi nancially and allow you to improve your standard of living. ★★★

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

I continue a series on saving tricks with end plays. You’re declarer at four hearts, and West leads a club. You fi gure he has the ace of spades and king of diamonds for his bid, so you’re at risk of losing two spades and two diamonds. What will you do about it?

The actual South saw nothing better than to play West for K-x in dia-monds. He took the king of clubs, drew trumps, and led the ace and a low diamond, ducking East’s ten. But West fol-lowed low, East shifted to a spade, and the defense got two spades and a sec-ond diamond.

LOW SPADESouth succeeds with an

end play. After he draws trumps, he takes the ace of clubs, ruffs a club and leads a low spade. If East wins and leads another spade, West is end-played when he takes the ace.

Say East wins the fi rst spade with the nine and leads the jack of dia-monds. South plays low from his hand, takes dummy’s ace and exits with a spade. Then West must cash the king of dia-monds, setting up South’s queen, or concede a ruff-sluff.

DAILY QUESTIONYou hold: S K 6 H A K

Q 10 9 5 D Q 3 2 C K 2. You open one heart, the next player bids one spade, your partner raises to two hearts and the play-er at your right passes. What do you say?

ANSWER: To bid game or try for game at hearts would be questionable. (When today’s South landed at four hearts, he went down despite a super-strong dummy.) If you judge to try for game, bid 2NT. Your king of spades may be a win-ner at notrump when the opening lead is a spade.

ABC’s ‘Detroit 1-8-7’ fi nds character in city

JEFF KAROUBASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER

D ETROIT – When “NYPD Blue” veteran James Mc-Daniel signed on for a new

ABC cop show called “Detroit 1-8-7,” he served as cheerleader-in-chief in the creators’ campaign to shoot in the Motor City.

The actor fi gured they didn’t stand a chance because it had never been done. But he craved the authenticity of being in the downtrodden city – far from traditional acting hubs and his beloved New York – even if it meant suffering for his art.

McDaniel was fl oored on both fronts: The network brass approved fi lming the show in Detroit, and he found the city to be both inviting and inspir-ing.

“We get here, and imagine my surprise: My wife and I actually love it. We really get it,” he said while waiting to shoot a scene on a weed-pocked parking lot near downtown.

The fi rst network television drama to set up shop full time in Detroit is discovering a city that goes beyond its Rust Belt reputa-tion. And its writers, producers and actors hope the struggling town is a secret weapon for “De-troit 1-8-7” as it prepares to enter

the crowded market of crime procedurals.

The title of the show, which debuted at 10 p.m. Tuesday, uses a former California police code for homicide and features fi ctional members of a Detroit Police homicide unit. The real city has been unable to shake its reputation as a haven for violence, but those involved say they can show the grit without glorifying it.

“People’s fear was it was just going to be street crime and gang violence and things like that. It’s really not,” said star Michael Imperioli, relaxing after a full day of rehearsals and shooting in Detroit’s Cass Corridor. “A lot of it is not about the dead – it’s about the living – the people who are connected and affected by these crimes.”

McDaniel and Imperioli, whose credits include HBO’s “The Sopranos” and playing another prime-time detective on ABC’s short-lived “Life on Mars,” are the best known actors on “1-8-7.” The diverse cast also includes Erin Cummings (“Mad Men”), Aisha Hinds (“True Blood”) and Shaun Majumder (“Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle”).

On a recent day of heavy shoot-ing for the show’s fourth episode, Imperioli joined several other

actors for early morning scenes.His Detective Louis Fitch and

colleagues have been called to a playground behind a school where a girl’s body has been found. After some run-throughs, the actor consults the script one last time and stashes it on a cart that includes “realistic drying blood” in “Aaron’s On-Set Blood Bag.”

The real neighborhood near downtown, once synonymous with crime and vice in Detroit, is now in transition – improving or declining, depending on the block.

“Look at this building here – it almost looks like a castle, and it’s crumbling, covered with ivy,” Imperioli said, pointing to a vacant apartment building that’s serving as a preservation project in the episode. “At the same time, you see this alternative movie theater and there’s a kind of re-ally cool vintage store.

“The neighborhood was a glori-ous place that went to seed for a while, and you can see all of it in this tiny little corner of the city.”

“Detroit 1-8-7” creator Jason Richman was developing the drama at the same time he visited friends in Detroit. He saw the city’s architecture and decided it was the right setting for his show.

Ginsberg’s life is pieced together

in ‘Howl’JAKE COYLE

AP ENTERTAINMENT WRITER

A n interesting combination of courtroom drama,

historical recreation and animated poetry, “Howl” is reverent enough about Allen Ginsberg that it doesn’t even try to bring him to life on celluloid.

The fi lm, directed by Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Friedman, is mostly content with docudrama imitation.

“Howl” is split three ways, skipping between each segment: Ginsberg’s fi rst public reading at the smoky Six Gallery in 1955 San Francisco, presented in black-and-white; an interview with the poet in 1957, recreated from numer-ous interviews; and the famous trial of the same year in which Ginsberg’s poetry was alleged to be obscene.

The fi lm introduces its origins plainly as “composed from court readings, interviews and ‘Howl.’ ”

In the reading and interview scenes, James Franco gamely attempts the daunting role of the iconic poet. “Howl” doesn’t allow for a full performance, leaving Franco to mostly only

grasp at imitation. He does well enough (par-ticularly in the interviewscenes) with Ginsberg’s halting intonation and glint of mischief.

The courtroom scenes are the fi lm’s best mainlybecause they supply some drama and are populated almost exclu-sively by fi ne actors. The trial was a notable case in 1st amendment rights,and considerably helped Ginsberg’s fame.

Jon Hamm plays the defense attorney, Jake Ehrlich, whose com-manding orations and witness cross examina-tions are distinctly Don Draper-esque – which is to say, fairly riveting. This is an actor whose very presence – removed,impatient, fi ercely intel-ligent – is charged.

Claiming “Howl” is indecent is prosecuting attorney Ralph McIn-tosh, played by David Strathairn. He plays McIntosh as close-minded but genuinely searching for answers to a work of art he can’t understand. He asks what “angel-headed hipsters” are with real curiosity.

‘As the World Turns’ stops spinning after 54 yearsFRAZIER MOORE

AP TELEVISION WRITER

N EW YORK – It’s the last go-round for “As the World

Turns.”TV’s oldest daytime

drama aired its fi nal episode Friday, conclud-ing a run that began in April 1956.

Always full of emotion-al turmoil, “World” was set in the mythical town of Oakdale, Ill., where there was no shortage of couplings, heartbreak, double-dealing and hair-pin plot twists.

CBS announced in De-cember that it was pull-ing the plug on the New York-based show, which ranked at the bottom of the ratings among net-work soaps. It wrapped production in June.

The drama made its de-

but in 1956 for Procter & Gamble Co., the Cincin-nati-based maker of soap and many other house-hold products.

Big events last week included Jack (Michael Park) remarrying oft-wed Carly (Maura West). Janet (Julie Pinson) gave birth to her ex-husband Jack’s son. Then a DNA test revealed the father of the child was really Janet’s betrothed, Dusty (Grayson McCouch). And – more joyous news – Carly learned she was pregnant with Jack’s child.

“I think things turned out exactly the way they were supposed to,” Janet said.

Friday’s fi nale found Dr. Bob Hughes (played for a half-century by Don Hastings) in a refl ective mood as he prepared to

retire at day’s end as head of Oakdale Memo-rial Hospital.

“I was just thinking about this place,” he mused – “how many patients I’ve taken care of here, some of them from their fi rst breath (dramatic pause) to their last.”

“Good night,” said Dr. Bob at the close of the hour, as he doused the lights of his offi ce and took his leave. On his desk, an illuminated globe was seen spinning at the poignant fade-out.

The demise of “World” follows by a year the end of CBS’ “Guiding Light”

after 72 years on radio, then TV.

On Oct. 18, CBS will fi ll the slot “World” occu-

pied with “The Talk,” a daily chat show whose hosts include Julie Chen and Sharon Osbourne.

WHO’S NEWS---

Like most golfers, Ernie Els always wonders if he could have achieved more in his career. He was reminded Wednesday he has done plenty with the announce-ment that he has been elected into the World Golf Hall of Fame.

Els was the only player to receive enough votes from the PGA Tour, the fi rst year his name was on the ballot. The most global player of his era, the Big Easy has won 62 times around the world, including two U.S. Opens and a British Open.

“It makes you feel very good about what you’ve done,” Els said.

Els will be among fi ve players who are inducted May 9 in St. Augustine, Fla., the Monday of The Players Championship next year.

Doug Ford and Jock Hutchison were elected through the Veteran’s Catego-ry, while former president George H.W. Bush was selected through the Lifetime Achievement category. It will be the second straight induction ceremony featur-ing a former U.S. president, with Dwight D. Eisen-hower inducted in 2009.

World Golf Hall of Fame chief ex-ecutive Jack Peter said one player was elected fron the International ballot.

T hank goodness for the Major League Baseball wild card.

Longtime readers of The High Point Enterprise may recall that I was a harsh critic of the wild card when MLB decided to add it for the 1994 playoffs. The strike can-celled the ‘94 postseason so that left ‘95 as the fi rst wildcard season.

I freely admit I was wrong.Take this season. With no wild card, either

the New York Yankees or Tampa Bay Rays would miss the postseason altogether.

With all due respect to the surging Minne-

sota Twins in the AL Central and the danger-ous Texas Rangers in the AL West, the Yanks and Rays are the class of the Junior Circuit.

These teams appear on a collision course for an ALCS showdown in a few weeks.

But that course could never be charted without the wild card.

This is far from the fi rst time that the two best teams in the AL or NL resided in the same division.

It seems only right that the best get to show their stuff in the postseason. Besides, the Yanks-Rays rivalry this season has been incredible.

Today’s 7 p.m. showdown at Yankee Sta-dium completes the 18-game regular-season series. Entering this four-game set at Yankee Stadium, eight of the fi rst 14 games were de-cided by three runs or less. Five games were settled by one run, including four walkoffs.

These teams are evenly matched, well man-aged and playoff tested.

I hope they meet again.Thanks to the wildcard format, we have

that chance.– MARK MCKINNEY

ALL IS NOT LOST

So far, Atlantic Coast Confer-ence football season has turned into a series of lost causes for sev-eral league members.

Virginia Tech lost to Boise State and James Madison. Yes, Toto, Georgia Tech stumbled in Kansas. Duke starred on the wrong end of “Name That Score” against Ala-bama. UNC has yet to win, while Wake fell fl at at Stanford. Mary-land proved no match for West Virginia. Clemson worked over-time and lost at Auburn, while Oklahoma lowered the Sooner boom on Florida State. Virginia came up three points shy at South-ern Cal.

Through three weeks, only N.C. State and Boston College sport

unblemished re-cords.

Bowyer’s car found illegalBY GREER SMITH

ENTERPRISE SPORTS WRITER

NASCAR sent Clint Bowyer and his Richard Childress Racing team crashing back to Earth and out of Chase for the Championship contention on Wednesday.

The sanctioning body announced that the loca-tion of the body on the No. 33 Chevrolet that Bowyer drove to victory Sunday at New Hampshire Speedway failed inspection, resulting some of the heaviest penal-ties ever administered.

Bowyer and car owner Richard Childress each

lost 150 points, leav-ing Bowyer with just a net of 45 that knocked him from second place in the s t a n d i n g s

down to last among the 12 Chase drivers, 185 points behind leader Denny Ham-lin. The defi cit is more than can be gained in one race.

Bowyer’s crew chief Shane Wilson was fi ned $150,000. He and car chief Chad Haney were suspend-ed from the next six NAS-CAR Sprint Cup events,

suspended from NASCAR until Nov. 3 and placed on probation until Dec. 31.

The car passed initial inspection at the track af-ter the race. Its rear was found to be outside of the rules during a more thor-ough look at the NASCAR research and develop-ment center in Concord. The penalties come on the heels of NASCAR warning RCR to check Bowyer’s cars after the one he drove to sixth place at Richmond came close to failing in-spection because of its body location.

Childress issued a state-ment saying that he will

appeal. NASCAR offi cials declined to say how much the body was out of toler-ance. In his statement, Childress said the viola-tion was 60 thousandths of an inch at the rear of the car.

“We feel certain that the cause of the car being out of tolerance. . . happened as a result of the wrecker hitting the rear bumper when it pushed the car into winner’s circle,” Chil-dress said in the statement. “The rear bumper was also hit on the cool down lap by other drivers congratulat-ing Clint on his victory. That’s the only logical way

that the left-rear of the car was found to be high at the tech center.”

NASCAR vice president of competition Robin Pem-berson said during a tele-conference Wednesday that he did not think the violation was the result of contact from a wrecker.

The severe penalties are in keeping with those pre-viously handed down for violating the strict stan-dards for body location on the Car of Tomorrow.

In keeping with policy, NASCAR did not strip Bowyer of the victory, his fi rst in 88 races and third of his career.

NCAA suspends two Tar Heels

RALEIGH (AP) — The NCAA suspended North Carolina defensive back Kendric Burney six games and safety Deunta Williams four games on Wednesday for receiving improper benefi ts.

Both players must also repay benefi ts to become eligible, though the school plans to ap-peal the length of the suspensions.

In a news release, the NCAA said Burney re-ceived $1,333 in benefi ts while Williams received $1,426 in benefi ts. The school said Burney must repay $575.19 and Williams must repay $450.67 to charities of their choice.

Both players have sat out the fi rst two games for the winless Tar Heels (0-2), which count toward their suspen-sions. North Carolina is still awaiting word

on the status of 10 other players as they prepare to travel to Rutgers, in-cluding NFL prospects Marvin Austin and Rob-ert Quinn on defense, top receiver Greg Little and tailback Ryan Hous-ton.

The NCAA visited Chapel Hill in July fo-cused on whether Aus-tin and Little received improper benefi ts from agents, but that probe expanded to include possible academic mis-conduct involving a tu-tor last month.

Athletic director Dick Baddour called the length of the suspen-sions “unduly harsh” and hopes to have an appeal heard by next week.

“The timeliness is im-portant and I’m sure the NCAA will work with us to help us get a response as soon as possible,” Baddour said.

The Viking Classic also is next week in Madison, Miss.

Clausen welcomes advice ahead of fi rst startCHARLOTTE (AP) — Jimmy Clausen

and his phone haven’t gotten much rest this week.

As the Carolina rookie crams for his fi rst NFL start Sunday against Cincin-nati, a steady stream of well-wishers and advice-givers has checked in. The list includes Charlie Weis, his old col-lege coach, and Mark Sanchez, an old buddy who knows a thing or two about starting as a rookie.

Clausen hopes his connections and a heavy dose of preparation will help him jump-start the Panthers’ ugly of-fense.

“It doesn’t feel different. It’s just get-ting more reps and that’s a good thing,” Clausen said Wednesday after his fi rst practice since replacing the ineffective Matt Moore. “I have to get in there and

get familiar with all the new stuff we’re putting in.”

The baby-faced, former Notre Dame star has had quite a week already.

On Monday, a day after a dismal 20-7 loss to Tampa Bay dropped Carolina to 0-

2, coach John Fox made the switch to Clausen. Just a few hours later, Clausen got a call from Weis, now the offensive coordinator of the Kansas City Chiefs.

“He was real fi red up,” a beaming Clausen said. “He called me and the fi rst thing he said was, ’My day got brighter. Congratulations.’ My family and his family have a close relationship.”

Clausen celebrated his 23rd birthday on Tuesday, which included a phone

call from Sanchez of the New York Jets. He and Clausen became friends growing up in California, and Sanchez last year became only the second rookie quarter-back to win two playoff games.

“He was talking about some of the things he wishes he could have heard from somebody in his fi rst start and go-ing into his career,” Clausen said.

Such as?“We were just talking about watch-

ing tape and trying to get in with dif-ferent guys,” Clausen said. “Get in with the center and watch the blitzes. Get in with the receivers and watch different coverages and see what they see.”

Clausen bolted from his locker to watch fi lm after meeting with the media on Wednesday. He appeared more vocal and animated earlier as he worked with

the starters in practice, something thatwasn’t lost on running back JonathanStewart.

“He’s a little more focused on makingreads and being more decisive, quickto the huddle and stuff like that, as anystarter would be, I guess,” Stewart said.“But you can defi nitely tell he’s excited.”

Clausen also faces a tall task as hetries to prove the rest of the leaguewrong for letting him slip into the sec-ond round of the draft.

He takes over an offense that has twotouchdowns and eight turnovers. Therunning game hasn’t been dominatelike last year. The offense line hasn’tprotected well, and Carolina faces aBengals team that allowed only onetouchdown in a victory on Sundayagainst Baltimore.

CHARLOTTE (AP) — The Charlotte Bobcats will bring Javaris Crit-tenton to training camp with a non-guaranteed contract, giving the ex-Washington Wizards point guard a chance to return to the NBA fol-lowing his infamous gun altercation with Gilbert Arenas.

Crittenton didn’t play last season because of an ankle injury and then served a 38-game suspen-sion after he and Arenas acknowledged bringing guns into the locker room following a dispute stem-ming from a card game.

Phillies complete sweep of BravesTHE ASSOCIATED PRESS

PHILADELPHIA — Roy Oswalt and a pair of relievers combined on a one-hitter and the NL East-leading Philadel-phia Phillies beat Atlanta 1-0 Wednesday night for their 10th straight win, increasing their bulge over the Braves to six games.

Raul Ibanez hit an RBI double with two outs in the eighth inning for the only run, helping the two-time NL champions re-duce their magic number for clinching their fourth

straight division title to four. It was the Phillies’ fi rst home sweep over the Braves since 2001.

Oswalt allowed just one hit — a clean double by Martin Prado in the fourth — and one walk in seven scoreless innings.

Atlanta began the day with a one-game lead over San Diego in the wild-card race.

While the Braves used two rookies — Mike Mi-nor and Brandon Beachy, who made his major league debut on Monday — to start the fi rst two games of a crucial series,

the Phillies adjusted their rotation so their three aces would pitch.

Cole Hamels and Roy Halladay delivered in the fi rst two games. Then Os-walt did his job.

TWINS 5, INDIANS 1 MINNEAPOLIS — A

division title secured, the Minnesota Twins are not letting up.

The Twins rested most of their regulars and beat the Cleveland Indians 5-1 Wednesday behind the pitching of Nick Black-burn to complete a three-game sweep.

BCBS customers to get refunds

MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNENEWS SERVICE

TRIAD — About 215,000 North Carolinians with individual health-insur-ance policies through Blue Cross Blue Shield of North Carolina will receive an early benefi t from federal health-care reform.

The N.C. Insurance De-partment said this week the insurer will make a one-time refund of $155.8 million as a byproduct of the grandfathering of rules connected with the Affordable Care Act, which goes into effect in 2014.

Refunds will be issued in December to policy-

holders who had either Blue Advantage or the Blue Options health-sav-ings account policies in force on March 23 — the date that the act became law.

The refund is expected to represent about one-and-a-half months’ worth of premium costs, so the higher someone’s pre-miums were, the larger their refund will be. The average refund is expect-ed to be about $690.

The department also said it has approved a smaller-than-usual rate increase for the Blue Ad-vantage and Blue Options products for 2011.

The refunds will be paid at a time when more

people are depending on individual health-insur-ance policies, either be-cause their job has been eliminated during the re-cession or their employer chose to drop coverage to reduce expenses.

Michael York, the president of Blue Moon Benefi ts Group in Clem-mons, said the Triad should receive a signifi -cant number of the re-funds because the Blue Cross individual policies “are very popular in the Piedmont area.” Blue Moon has carved a niche in recent years providing individual policies, such as Blue Cross, to people who have had their cov-erage end.

Dell hires real-estate

broker MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE

NEWS SERVICE

WINSTON-SALEM — Dell Inc. has chosen a Chicago real-estate broker to handle the marketing of its $110 mil-lion manufacturing plant in Winston-Salem.

Jones Lang LaSalle gained the contract this week, the company said this week.

The 750,000-square-foot building, which opened in 2005, will be marketed as Triad Technology Center, said Chris Skibinski, the company’s managing direc-tor of logistics and industrial properties for its Charlotte office. Simpson Schulman & Beard, a real-estate company in Greensboro, will assist in the marketing.

“We’re just ramping up our efforts and determin-ing Dell’s plans,” Skibinski said. “Dell prefers to sell the plant to a single buyer, but has expressed a will-ingness to be fl exible for

leasing it on a long-term basis.”

Skibinski said that Dell has not disclosed a sale price publicly.

Dell announced in Octo-ber 2009 its plans to close the desktop-assembly plant.

The plant operated on bor-rowed time for more than a year as Dell postponed the shutdown four times be-cause of a surge in demand from businesses wanting new desktops and other tech-nologies.

However, on Sept. 10, Dell said it planned to close the plant for good in November, with most of the remaining 575 full-time and contract employees being let go by the end of October.

David Frink, a Dell spokes-man, said no decision has been made about how quick-ly it would leave the plant. A task force was formed soon after Dell made its initial plant decision to find a new user or users for the plant.

CarMax profi t rises on used-car sales

RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — Used car dealership chain CarMax Inc. said Wednesday its profi t rose nearly 5 percent in its fi scal second quarter as a shaky economy contin-ued to push consumers toward previously owned cars and trucks.

CarMax, which operates more than 100 stores, said its overall revenue climbed 13 percent while revenue at stores open at least a year

rose 4 percent even though last year’s sales were boost-ed by the government’s Cash for Clunkers rebate program.

While used cars didn’t qualify under the fed-eral program that gave rebates for junking older cars and buying more fuel-effi cient vehicles, the Richmond, Va.-based company has said the program resulted in a spike in traffi c.

Czechs halt Google’s ‘Street View’

PRAGUE (AP) — The Czech Republic has refused to grant Google permission to expand its “Street View” because the mapping feature invades peoples’ privacy, the government’s privacy watchdog said Wednes-day.

The Czech Offi ce for Personal Data Protection has been investigating the issue since April, and last week it did not give Google Inc. the necessary registration for “Street View” in the eastern European country but did not explain why.

Canada: Facebook has allayed concerns

NEW YORK (AP) — Canada’s privacy commissioner says Facebook has addressed concerns it raised a year ago over third-party access to users’ informa-tion. Privacy Commis-sioner Jennifer Stoddart said the world’s largest online social network has put changes in place over the past year that are “reasonable and meet the expectations set out under Canadian privacy law.”

AMR shares fall on dim outlook

DALLAS (AP) — Shares of American Airlines par-ent AMR Corp. tumbled by 8 percent Wednesday after the company’s outlook for stronger revenue failed to impress some analysts.

The company said late Tuesday that third-quarter unit revenue, or total rev-enue divided by available seats times miles flown, would grow between 9.8 percent and 10.8 percent compared with a year ago.

The Dow Jones in-dustrial average fell 21points.

General Mills

income rises

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) – General Mills Inc.’s fi rst-quarter net income rose 12 percent on stronger sales of key products such as Cheerios, Cinnamon Toast Crunch and Yoplait yogurts.

“Economic conditions remain relatively weak and consumer confi dence is still pretty low, so it is a challenging time,” Ken Powell, the company’s CEO, said Wednesday. “But as we’ve said before, it’s still a great time to be in the food business.”

The company said it sold more of its products all its operating segments and saw a shift by consumers to some of its higher-margin prod-ucts such as cereal. But the company’s performance was hampered slightly by higher costs for ingredients and ad-vertising.

General Mills reported

that it earned $472.1 mil-lion, or 70 cents per share, for the quarter. That’s up from $420.6 million, or 62 cents per share, earned in the same quarter last year.

On an adjusted basis, the company earned 64 cents

per share, a penny better than what analysts polled by Thomson Reuters expected.

The company’s reve-nue edged up 1 percent to $3.53 billion, falling short of analyst expectations of $3.57 billion.

General Mills said rev-enue in its U.S. retail busi-ness grew 6 percent. Inter-national revenue was up slightly less than 1 percent, but excluding the impact of unfavorable foreign ex-change, rose 4 percent.

SEC toughens enforcement effortsWASHINGTON (AP)

– The Securities and Ex-change Commission’s chief enforcement offi -cial says the agency has toughened its efforts to shut down fi nancial mis-conduct after failing to act quickly in the cases of R. Allen Stanford and Bernard Madoff.

SEC Enforcement Di-rector Robert Khuzami says in testimony pre-pared for a Senate hear-ing that “we have moved aggressively” to put in place reforms recom-mended by the SEC in-

spector general. The IG found that the SEC knew since 1997 that Stanford likely was operating a Ponzi scheme but waited 12 years to bring fraud charges against the bil-lionaire.

Khuzami also tells the Senate Banking Commit-tee the SEC is working to provide “maximum re-covery” to investors hurt in Stanford’s alleged $7 billion fraud.

Stanford has been in federal prison since his indictment in June 2009 on criminal charges that

his international bank-ing business was really a pyramid scheme. He is disputing the charges. He faces a life sentence if convicted.

The SEC didn’t bring civil fraud charges against Stanford until February 2009. SEC In-spector General David Kotz said in a report is-sued in April that “insti-tutional infl uence” in the enforcement division was a factor in the agency’s repeated decisions not to conduct a full investiga-tion.

The report found that SEC enforcement offi -cials discouraged cases that couldn’t be resolved quickly. And it said an SEC enforcement offi cial who helped quash inves-tigations later legally represented Stanford.

The SEC’s offi ce in Fort Worth, Texas, had con-ducted “examination after examination” of Stanford’s business over eight years, but “merely watched the alleged fraud grow, and failed to take any action to stop it,” Kotz testifi ed at Wednesday’s hearing.

lightning interrupt Utah fi refi ght

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) – Rain, hail and lightning have suspend-ed the fi ght against a Utah wildfi re ignited by Army National Guard members during week-end machine-gun train-ing.

Offi cials are reassess-ing evacuation ordersfor 250 residents stillkept out of homes clos-est to Camp Williams,a training base about 30miles south of Salt LakeCity.

More than 1,600 hous-es were ordered evacu-ated after the fi re brokeout Sunday.
