TRIAD – Offi cials with the state of North Carolina estimate they will recover about $1.5 million of the $8.5 million provided in economic incentives to Dell Inc., and legisla-tors say the experience with Dell could lead to reforms of incentives offers to companies.

Dell was pledged the largest, com-bined state and local incentives package in North Carolina history fi ve years ago when it announced plans to build a computer manufac-turing plant. But Dell, which is look-ing to save $4 billion corporatewide, last week announced it will close the Winston-Salem plant in January, putting 905 workers out of a job.

Dell’s incentives, which could have totaled more than $300 mil-lion, were to be phased in during many years. Dell already has re-ceived some incentives payments from the state, Winston-Salem and Forsyth County.

The state expects to recover the $1.5 million in Job Development Invest-ment Grant funds, said Katharine Neal, assistant secretary of commu-nications and external affairs with the N.C. Department of Commerce in Raleigh. But Dell received other benefi ts, such as $3.6 million in work force training funds, that the state doesn’t expect to recapture.

Winston-Salem Mayor Allen Joines said last week he expects local governments will recover the incentives money fl oated to Dell, which totals about $26 million.

Two leading legislators say the Dell deal should lead to greater scrutiny. “I think the Dell experi-ence will lead legislators to look more carefully at the incentive

packages,” said Rep. Paul Luebke, D-Durham and senior chairman of the House Finance Committee.

Luebke, who voted against the Dell incentives during a special N.C. General Assembly session in November 2004, said legislators may require companies to pay back more of the benefi ts they receive if they close plants early.

When legislators took up the Dell legislation in the one-day special session, they were told by offi cials of then-Gov. Mike Easley that no changes or amendments could be made or Dell wouldn’t pick North Carolina.

Sen. Phil Berger, R-Rockingham and Senate minority leader, voted for the Dell incentives fi ve years ago. But the closing of the plant ought to cause state and local of-fi cials to re-examine incentives offers, especially extraordinary ones, said Berger, who represents parts of Guilford County.

“We need to be real careful. This is a wake-up call,” Berger said.

THOMASVILLE – Unilin Flooring, despite invest-ing nearly $80 million at its Chair City headquarters, has requested that Thomas-ville offi cials waive the min-imum job creation clause for 2010 in its 10-year economic development contract with the city.

Kristine Lauten, Unilin

Flooring director of manu-facturing fi nance, sent no-tifi cation last month to the Davidson County Board of Commissioners, the city of Thomasville and the David-son County Economic De-velopment Commission that the company has not met its goal for job creation.

In the memo to the govern-ment entities, Lauten said Unilin Flooring has had to reduce its staff to manage

costs in the economic down-turn. She said the company has been hit hard because fl ooring is tied closely to residential construction and remodeling

“When we broke ground on this plant in 2004, we had planned to have almost 400 employees by this time and be well into the execution of our Phase 3 expansion,”

Unilin wants waiver for jobs creation clause

BY PAT KIMBROUGHENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

HIGH POINT – A planning organi-zation that works with local gov-ernments is trying to raise aware-ness about the need to clean up a local watershed.

The Piedmont Triad Council of Governments recently completed the Rich Fork Creek Watershed Restoration Plan, and this week will begin a series of public meetings on restoration projects it’s proposing.

The study, funded by grants from the North Carolina Division of Wa-ter Quality and the Clean Water Management Trust Fund, recom-mends 33 projects and seven policy initiatives aimed at improving Rich Fork’s water quality. The 57-square-mile watershed is primarily

in northeastern Davidson County but includes portions of High Point. It’s a tributary of the larger Abbott’s Creek Watershed and is a headwa-ters system of High Rock Lake.

According to PTCOG, the creek is listed as impaired for biological habitat by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and had bacte-ria levels in excess of federal stan-dards until last year.

The plan cites storm-water man-agement and buffer restoration as the top needs in cleaning up the wa-tershed. Storm-water runoff – rain-fall that strikes impervious surfaces and carries pollutants into the creek – has had the largest impact on Rich Fork’s water quality conditions.

The primary pollutants include fertilizers and pesticides, oils, dirt from construction sites and litter.

PTCOG, which says it’s working with planning offi cials from High Point, Thomasville and Davidson County, recommends vegetated buffers as one way to help keep pollutants out of the stream.

Buffers, such as trees, shrubs and native grasses, are absent from many of the streamside prop-erties in the watershed, according to PTCOG.

The other recommendations in-clude “storm-water retrofi ts,” such as rain gardens and constructed wetlands, as a way to mitigate the impact of runoff. Outreach and education, improved enforcement of existing rules and improved site design are other strategies PTCOG is proposing.


Study pushes watershed cleanup

AT A GLANCE–The N.C. General Assembly over-whelmingly approved the largest incentives package in state his-tory for Dell Inc. during a special session on Nov. 4, 2004.

Voting in favor of the incentives were: Reps. Harold Brubaker, R-Randolph; Jerry Dockham, R-Da-vidson; Hugh Holliman, D-David-son; and Earl Jones, D-Guilford; Sens. Stan Bingham, R-Davidson; Katie Dorsett, D-Guilford; and Jerry Tillman, R-Randolph.

PUBLIC HEARINGS–The Piedmont Triad Council of Governments has scheduled fi ve public meetings on the Rich Fork Creek Watershed Restoration Plan:

• Thursday, 7 p.m., Ledford Middle School

• Oct. 20, 7 p.m., Springhill Church, High Point

• Oct. 22, 7 p.m., Ledford Middle School

• Oct. 27, 7 p.m., Davidson County Agricultural Center, Lexington

• Oct. 29, 7 p.m., Springhill Church, High Point

NEW YORK (AP) – Don’t be alarmed if Bernard Madoff comes knocking this Halloween.

The real Madoff plead-ed guilty to a decades-long Ponzi scheme that cost investors millions of dollars. The New York fi nancier is now serving

a 150-year prison sen-tence.

But he’ll be joining the witches and ghosts on spook night.

Madoff masks are at retail stores and on Web sites that sell costumes. One fi rm that makes a rubber Madoff mask, Ru-

bie’s Costume Company, has distributed more than 15,000 of them to stores across the country.

But Executive Vice President Howard Beige predicts Madoff will be outsold by Michael Jack-son and Super Mario Brothers.

Public hearing considered FROM PAGE 1

Lauten wrote. “The real-ity is that we will employ approximately half that number at year end 2009. ... Despite the economic challenges, we are still on track to have invested $80 million at this campus by the end of 2009 as we origi-nally planned.”

At its briefi ng Monday evening, the Thomasville City Council decided it will consider calling for a Nov. 16 public hear-ing next Monday night on Unilin’s request for a waiver.

In 2004, the city of Thom-asville, Davidson County and the state of North Carolina agreed to a total of $14 million in incen-tives for Unilin Flooring to locate in Thomasville. Thomasville offi cials said the city has paid out eco-nomic incentive grants to Unilin Flooring in 2007, 2008 and 2009, with the city’s last payment being $236,163.14.

According to Thomas-ville Councilman Raleigh York Jr., Unilin Floor-

ing offi cials hope to takeadvantage of a new in-centives policy that theCity Council recently ap-proved. The policy allowsthe City Council to waivethe minimum job creationclause for any businessthat invests $50,000 whenthe county’s unemploy-ment rate has been at orabove 10 percent in thelast six months.

“You always want peo-ple to provide as manyjobs as possible, but atthe same time, you haveto understand that in thejob climate and businessclimate that we have nowthat it’s hard for some ofthe companies to contin-ue their employment atthe rate they would likeit to be,” York said. “Ifeel like (Unilin Flooringhas) done a good job thefew years they have beenhere. We defi nitely wantto keep them here.”

MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

WAYNESVILLE – A man accused of shaking a 5-week-old baby, caus-ing severe brain injuries that left the infant disabled for life is on the run, police suspect.

Jeremiah Seckman, 24, of the Jonathan Creek area, was indicted by a Haywood County Grand Jury Sept. 29 on a charge of felony child abuse. Authorities have been un-able to locate Seckman, however, to serve the indictment.

Det. James Marsh of the Haywood County Sheriff’s Offi ce said that he’s made numerous attempts to

locate Seckman, to no avail. “The information we have (as of Fri-day) is that he has fl ed the state, possibly to Florida,” said Marsh. “We also have information that he could be in Pisgah National Forest.”

Seckman is accused of abusing an infant child almost two months ago, causing severe permanent brain injuries.

“The child is permanently dis-abled,” said Marsh. “She will like-ly be blind for life, in addition to other severe disabilities.”

On the morning of Aug. 17, the infant victim’s mother awoke to

discover her child having seizures and took her to be seen by a doc-tor, said Marsh. The infant was immediately transported to Mis-sion Hospitals where doctors con-fi rmed she suffered severe brain trauma.

Medical experts trained in iden-tifying and treating child abuse ex-amined the baby and ruled out the possibility of accidental injuries, determining the trauma to her brain was likely caused by shak-ing with severe force, Marsh said. Haywood County social services and sheriff’s detectives were noti-fi ed and an investigation ensued.

JACKSONVILLE (AP) – A rule that only allowed inmates in the Onslow County jail to read the Bible or legal documents has been lifted.

Sheriff Ed Brown an-nounced the rule change Monday. The new policy allows inmates to have two uncirculated publica-tions. Local attorneys had criticized Brown’s policy because many of the in-mates are awaiting trial, not serving sentences.

Medna, of Taylor Street, then escaped by jumping

in the river. When he gotback to shore, he saw hisFord Explorer was miss-ing.

Deputy Brad Bondsfound the Explorer a shortdistance west of the boatlanding.

RALEIGH (AP) – In its search for fugitives, the FBI has begun using fa-cial-recognition technol-ogy on millions of motor-ists, comparing driver’s license photos with pic-tures of convicts in a high-tech analysis of chin widths and nose sizes.

The project in North Car-olina has already helped nab at least one suspect.

Earlier this year, in-vestigators learned that a double-homicide suspect named Rodolfo Corrales had moved to North Caro-lina. The FBI took a 1991 booking photo from Cali-fornia, compared it with

30 million photos, and an FBI analyst reviewed a gallery of images before zeroing in on a man who called himself Jose Solis living in High Point.

“Everybody’s partici-

pating, essentially, in a virtual lineup by getting a driver’s license,” said Christopher Calabrese, an attorney with the American Civil Liberties Union.

So, I was right once again. I was boo-hooed and panned for expressing my opinion about Win-ston-Salem and Forsyth County giving the Dell Corp. $38 million in taxpayer money to locate in Forsyth County in 2004. How did that work out in the long run for the county? Did Dell ever reach the employee hiring levels they promised during their campaign for a free facility?

Since then, we’ve become a nation of entitlements, where anyone doing anything thinks the government is responsible for helping them attain their goals. Now, we have a full-blown attack on the American way. Free enter-prise is being vilifi ed by both our administration and neo-Marxist fi lmmaker Michael Moore.

I would have rather seen our benevolent, Marxist-leaning government allow some of these businesses they’ve bailed out with taxpayer dollars fail. But no, the American way is obviously some-thing they could care less about or something they feel is “unfair.” Competition is becoming a “bad

word,” which is necessary if the only viable competition is sup-posed to be the government.

President Obama placed his hand on the “Lincoln” Bible and swore an oath to protect the Constitution during his inaugura-tion. Has he held up his end of the bargain? Not in my humble opinion, and I can point directly at the mess in Afghanistan as a prime example, but I digress.

The real question is this: Will Dell reimburse the taxpayers who were hoodwinked into fi nancing their private enterprise?

RANDALL M. HEDRICKHigh Point

Scriptures say belief saves

you, not baptism

There’s nothing about baptism in John 1:12.

“Believe” – to have faith; by

implication – to entrust – Strong’s concordance. Believe what? The gospel – I Corinthians 15:3-4 – “For I delivered unto you fi rst of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures.” Also Romans 10:9-10.

John 1:12; 3:3, 5-6, 14-18, 36; 5:24; 6:35 and many other Scriptures tell one how to be saved, but none of them involve water baptism for salvation.

Either believe what God’s word says in plain English and accept Christ as Saviour, or believe some man-made religion and go to hell when you die. “... the rich man also died, and was buried; And in hell he lifted up his eyes, being in torments, ...” Luke 16:22b-23a. Also Mark 9:43-48. There’s no soul sleep nor purgatory between!

“For Christ sent me not to

baptize, but to preach the gospel ...” – I Corinthians 1:17. If baptism is necessary for salvation, why wasn’t Paul sent to preach it?

One has to do some serious twisting of Scripture to put baptism as a part of salvation in the Bible. Jesus Christ nor any of God’s word teaches such.

John 6:29 – “Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on Him whom He hath sent.”

RAY ALCONHigh Point

Did Dell take North Carolina taxpayers for a ride in the incen-tives competition game? In 30 words or less (no name, address required) e-mail your thoughts to [email protected]. Here is one response:

• The politicians took N.C. for a ride and will continue to do so as long as we remain a one-party welfare state. N.C. ranks poorly among most others.

YOUR VIEW---

C ount me among the puzzled.Advocates of government-run

health insurance seem fascinated with the fact that in many states, a single private insurer dominates the market. They decry monopoly, though having 70 percent market share doesn’t really fi t the defi nition. Yet their promised solu-tion is a very real monopoly.

In North Carolina, the rhetorical back-fl ips are more puzzling because the dominant private player is the nonprofi t Blue Cross & Blue Shield Association. Finding it inconvenient to blame profi t for the problems in our state’s insurance market, activists have resorted to attack-ing CEO Bob Greczyn’s $4 million salary as if it had some signifi cant bearing on health costs or access.

I have no idea if Greczyn is overpaid. I lack the information necessary to second-guess the board charged with the task of retaining effective management. But what I am confi dent about is that if you add up his salary and that of other top Blue Cross executives, the result wouldn’t come close to explaining the rise in health care costs or the inabil-ity of hundreds of thousands of North Carolinians to purchase true health insurance coverage at reasonable prices. Executive compensation is a tiny frac-tion of the bill.

Profi t won’t take you very far as an explanation, either. The average profi t margin in the health insurance busi-ness is a little less than 4 percent. Even if there were some way to eliminate it entirely, that wouldn’t save enough to curtail medical infl ation noticeably or to subsidize coverage for the uninsured.

Blue Cross takes in nearly 70 percent of all premium dollars in North Carolina’s health insurance market. It sells virtu-ally all of the policies in the individual market – plans marketed directly to

families rather than to employers – and is also the dominant player in the group market.

The issue, however, isn’t so much whether Blue Cross or another other insurer dominates the market, but why. If a fi rm earns a dominant market share because it delivers the best service at the best price, then by defi nition it isn’t hurting consumers.

But if a fi rm owes its dominance to un-fair barriers to entry that keep competi-tors out, consumers are hurt.

In health insurance, there are indeed unfair barriers to entry. For decades, Blue Cross/Blue Shield associations have used their political power in state capitals to acquire exceptions to taxes and regulations imposed on commercial health insurers.

For example, back in the 1990s North Carolina imposed price controls on small-group plans in an attempt to protect consumers. That had a dispro-portionate effect on new entrants and smaller fi rms without the ability to handle unforeseen risks. Such rules always work to the advantage of larger, established players – which is often why the rules make it through the lobbying process in the fi rst place.

In the past, then, the Blues have assumed dominant market positions because of special government assis-tance. Now, the Left wants to set up new public or nonprofi t insurers, with special government assistance, as an “option” to the Blues.

My head hurts.

JOHN HOOD is president of the John Locke Foun-dation and publisher of CarolinaJournal.com.

S ix months ago, in this space, we declared the second running of the United Health Care N.C. Marathon a huge success and heartily recom-

mended the event that benefi ts Foster Friends of North Carolina continue to be held each year in High Point. Foster Friends of North Carolina is a nonprofi t working to improve the lives of children experienc-ing foster care.

At that time, we also said “offi cials of the marathon and the city can get to work on producing an even big-ger event next year with more activities and attrac-tions downtown, and more food and snack vendors in particular. We’d also like to see the marathon head-quartered in the city.”

The event was moved from Greensboro, where the initial marathon was run, to High Point last May af-ter that city cited security and other costs totaling $65,000 while High Point offered to host the marathon at no charge.

It was announced in Friday’s edition of The High Point Enterprise that the 2010 (third annual) N.C. Marathon will take place March 20. As High Point City Manager Strib Boynton noted in that article, “The time of year doesn’t make any difference for us because it’s not about us. It’s about the runners rais-ing money for the foster homes.”

It’s also a natural for High Point, a community that repeatedly comes through when an event or a pro-gram helps children.

Consider just a few examples: • The recently completed, highly successful series

of Ilderton Beach Music Blast concerts in Uptowne High Point with proceeds going to the Children’s Home Society of North Carolina.

• The stadium dedicated just a couple of weeks ago for the Miracle League of High Point, one of about 200 Miracle Leagues across the country that allows children with mental and physical disabilities to ex-perience the joy of America’s pastime by removing the barriers that have traditionally kept them off the baseball fi eld.

• A considerable sum of money raised in High Point, with Jordan Washburn leading the way, for Victory Junction Gang Camp, a special camp for special kids with health care needs that has served more than 10,000 children from 47 states and three countries since it opened in the Randleman area in 2004.

BRIEFS---Britain’s Brown to repay $19,000 expense claims

LONDON – In the latest blow to Gordon Brown’s beleaguered leadership, the British prime min-ister is being forced to repay over 12,000 pounds ($19,000) in disputed claims following an audit into how British lawmak-ers spent public money.

Dozens of lawmakers received letters Monday from Thomas Legg – who Brown appointed to audit expense claims – asking them to repay the money or offer further expla-nations for why they claimed it.

Security of Pakistan nukes questioned

ISLAMABAD – An auda-cious weekend assault by Islamic militants on Paki-stan’s army headquarters is again raising fears of an insurgent attack on the country’s nuclear weapons installation.

Pakistan has sought to protect its nuclear weapons from attack by the Taliban or other militants by storing the warheads, detonators and missiles separately in facilities patrolled by elite troops.

Netanyahu: No war crimes trials for Israelis

JERUSALEM – Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday vowed never to allow Israeli leaders or sol-diers to stand trial on war crimes charges over their actions during last winter’s military offen-sive in the Gaza Strip.

He denounced a U.N. report in a keynote ad-dress to parliament.

Offi cial: Lockerbie bomber release in U.K. interest

LONDON – Britain’s Foreign Secretary says his country’s interests would have suffered had the Lockerbie bomber died in prison.

David Miliband said in a statement before law-makers Monday that Brit-ish authorities believed the U.K.’s economic and security cooperation with Libya would have been damaged if Abdel Baset al-Megrahi died from cancer while he was still behind bars.

ISLAMABAD (AP) – Mili-tants from the heart of Paki-stan teamed up with Taliban insurgents from the remote Afghan border region to car-ry out the bold weekend as-sault on army headquarters, the army said Monday – an ominous development as the fourth major attack in just over a week killed 41 people at a northwestern market.

The prospect of mili-tant networks from across Pakistan cooperating more closely could complicate a planned offensive against the Taliban in their north-

west stronghold, a push seenas vital to the success of thefaltering U.S. war effort inAfghanistan.

New details about the al-leged leader of the 22-hourattack on army headquar-ters less than 10 miles fromthe Pakistani capital under-scored the bonds among thegroups. Officials said Moham-mad Aqeel, a former memberof the army medical corps,had ties to the Taliban as wellas to two al-Qaida-linked mil-itant groups in the Punjab,Pakistan’s dominant andmost populous province.

4th attack in days kills 41 in Pakistan

KABUL (AP) – Efforts to resolve Afghanistan’s fraud-marred presiden-tial election suffered new setbacks Monday when one of two Afghans on the commission, Mau-lavi Mustafa Barakzai, resigned over “foreign interference” and U.N.

offi cials acknowledged that errors and miscom-munication had plagued the investigation.

Allegations of wide-spread fraud in the Aug. 20 balloting threaten to scuttle the international strategy to combat the bur-geoning Taliban insurgen-

cy at a time when public support for the war in the United States and Western Europe is waning.

The U.S. and its inter-national partners are anxious for a U.N.-backed commission to wrap up its investigation into fraud charges.

Problems beset Afghan vote recount

MOSCOW (AP) – U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton plans to press Russian leaders for “specifi c forms of pres-sure” against Iran if the re-gime fails to comply with international demands to prove its nuclear program is peaceful.

Clinton arrived in Moscow from Belfast on Monday, primed for a heavy schedule of meet-

ings today with Rus-sian President Dmitry Medvedev and Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov on the Iran question, Af-ghanistan and on Ameri-can efforts to defuse an anti-missile race in Eu-rope. Also on the agenda is nuclear-armed North Korea, which set off another round of short-range missiles in tests earlier Monday.

WASHINGTON (AP) – Insurance companies aren’t playing nice any more.

Their dire message that health care legisla-tion will drive up pre-miums for people who already have coverage comes as a warning shot at a crucial point in the debate.

Democrats and their allies scrambled on

Monday to knock down a new industry-funded study forecasting that Senate legislation, over time, will add thousands of dollars to the cost of a typical policy. “Dis-torted and fl awed,” said White House spokes-woman Linda Douglass. “Fundamentally dishon-est,” said AARP’s senior policy strategist, John Rother.

Insurers’ warning shot has Democrats scrambling

WASHINGTON (AP) – Elinor Ostrom became the fi rst woman to win a Nobel Prize in economics, honored along with fellow American Oliver William-son on Monday for analyz-ing economic governance – the rules by which peo-ple exercise authority in companies and economic systems.

Ostrom, 76, and Wil-liamson, 77, shared the 10 million kronor ($1.4 million) economics prize for work that “advanced economic governance research from the fringe to the forefront of scien-tifi c attention,” the Royal

Swedish Academy of Sci-ences said.

Ostrom, a political sci-entist at Indiana Univer-sity, showed how common resources can be managed successfully by the people who use them, rather than by governments or private companies.

Williamson, an econo-mist at the University of California, Berkeley, fo-cused on how fi rms and markets differ in the ways that they resolve confl icts.

HIGH POINT – Budding entrepreneurs at High Point University now have a way to get their ideas no-ticed and funded.

The newly opened Plato S. Wilson School of Com-merce will be home to the new Center for Entrepre-neurship and Innovation, along with classes for the university’s entrepreneur-ship major.

The center will host op-portunities for small busi-nesses to partner with students. The goal will be to sharpen professional

skills both on campus and in the community, according to university leaders.

Gary Simon, owner of Simon’s Jewelers, started a Business Accelerator Fund to support entrepre-neurial projects, but stu-dents will have to compete for funding.

“Creating a way for students to move their business venture past the classroom really intrigued me,” Simon said. “The potential grant for a well-planned business venture will hopefully fuel the stu-dents’ creativity. With pas-sion and a plan, success is obtainable.”

Entrepreneurship stu-dents will learn about e-commerce, marketing, fi -

nance and venture capital, inventory management, purchasing, quality con-trol and human resource management.

“The entrepreneurial program coupled with the city of High Point’s core city effort and revitaliza-tion plan will provide the perfect incubator for fresh ideas and potentially vi-brant new businesses in our area. It is thrilling to be a part of this synergis-tic relationship,” Simon said.

The Wilson School of-fers a state-of-the art in-teractive graphics and fi nancial research center

with a Wall Street-style trading room. HPU de-veloped the new program partly for students who want to start a business or work in a family busi-ness.

“HPU recognizes the need for entrepreneurial thinking to bring about innovation,” said Jim Wehrley, dean of the Earl N. Phillips School of Busi-ness. “Entrepreneurs have competitive advantages in the market due to their speed, creativity, fl exibil-ity, responsiveness and in-novative spirit.”


HPU offers start-up funds for businessesAT A GLANCE–Opportunities: The new HPU program will of-fer grants for start-up businesses owned by students and experien-tial learning opportuni-ties with guest speakers.

Work: Students will develop business plans and work on projects for local businesses.

DAVIDSON COUNTY – Da-vidson County authorities have arrested one person and said Monday they were seeking another sus-pect in the robbery of a store clerk in June.

A clerk from Larry’s Gro-

cery, 10491 N.C. 109 South, which is in the Silver Val-ley community, reported to Davidson County sheriff’s deputies on June 6 that she was robbed of an undis-closed amount of cash at gunpoint while she and her husband were in the drive-way of the store’s owners.

The clerk reported that she came to the home of Larry and Melissa Hughes to deliv-er the night deposit from the store when an armed man wearing a black, hooded

sweatshirt and black pants approached and demanded the money, according to the sheriff’s offi ce.

The victim told investiga-tors that she threw a bag of money on the ground, which the robber picked up before fl eeing the scene on foot.

Detectives said they have actively investigated the case since the incident and developed two suspects. They obtained arrest war-rants last week for Robert Gray Rhodes and Jason Lee

Gordon for one count each of robbery with a danger-ous weapon, deputies said.

Rhodes was arrested Thursday at a game room on Ernest Snider Road in the Silver Valley area and served with the warrant, au-thorities said. Rhodes, 20, of Jolly Road, Lexington, was jailed under a $500,000 bond. He also was served with an outstanding order for arrest for a failure to appear in court, deputies said.

Deputies and detectives

on Monday were still seek-ing Gordon, whose last known address is 1912 Hill Road, Lot 8, in the Silver Valley community, accord-ing to the sheriff’s offi ce.

Gordon, 24, is described as a white male, 5 feet, 10 inches tall, 149 pounds, with brown hair and hazel eyes. Anyone with information is asked to call the sheriff’s offi ce at 242-2105 or Lexington area Crimestoppers at 243-2400.

TRINITY – Automobile enthusi-asts and chili lovers will be given the chance to experience both Sat-urday during the Friends of Trin-ity’s Third Annual Car Show and Chili Cook-off.

“Our civic organization man-ages the event every year. We use it as a venue for raising funds for projects around the city of Trinity,” said Tommy Johnson, Friends of Trinity vice president.

The event will be held from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Braxton Craven Middle School, 7037 N.C. 62, Trini-ty. Parking and admission is free.

Last year, the event attracted 50 classic automobiles and the one-

man team of Trinity resident Rick Peele, who won the chili cook-off. This year, Peele will be among eight contestants competing in the event, Johnson said.

“I’m very excited because it’s an event that hopefully can grow for all of Trinity and eventually be a large festival-type event,” Johnson said of the event. “There are lots of good chili to eat. You get to see lots of unusual cars and vehicles. It brings back a lot of memories to a lot of folks.”

At the event, those wanting to taste chili will be able to purchase eight 2-ounce tasting cups for $5. Anonymous judges will determine the winner of the chili cook-off. For the car show, trophies will be award-ed for Best in Show and Mayor’s Choice, and several prizes will be

awarded for best cars and trucks.Organizers say all chili will be

prepared on site and should be ready by 11:30 a.m.

Proceeds from this year’s event

will help fund Trinity’s Veteran’s Memorial Park, a new park cur-rently in the planning stages.

“We only have a conceptual draw-ing right now and we are in the pro-cess of getting the actual working drawings done and projected cost,” Johnson said. “We are looking to-wards the end of next year being a time we can hopefully get started. We are wanting to create this park to honor and recognize the veter-ans from all branches of service and provide something for our citi-zens that’s unique in Trinity.”

During the event, a conceptual drawing of the park will be on display, with commemorative bricks for sale that will be placed in the new park.

HIGH POINT – Laura Avis Gibson, age 85, our beloved sister, aunt, and friend to all, departed her earthly life on October 11th, 2009 and went to be with our Lord in heaven.

Avis was the daughter of the late John and Victo-ria Gibson. She was also predeceased by her broth-ers, Howard Gibson and Donald Gibson, and her sisters, Rachel Gibson and Mary Gibson Rowan.

Avis is survived by her brothers Stephen Gibson of Greensboro, North Car-olina, and James Gibson (Ruth) of Hickory, North Carolina, and by her sisters Ella Gibson Hay-worth (Hubert) of Burling-ton, North Carolina, and Lucy Gibson Varker (Bill) of Chesapeake, Virginia; by 17 nieces and nephews and many grand nieces and grand nephews. Avis was the favorite aunt.

Born in 1923 in Randolph County, North Carolina, Avis graduated from Al-len Jay High School at the age of 16. Later, she also graduated from Jones Business College. She began her career in the spinning department of a Burlington Industries tex-tile plant in High Point, and through her effi cient and hard work in various Burlington plants was promoted to Plant Person-nel Manager in 1972. Avis retired from Burlington Industries after 38 years of service. Not one to be idle, Avis worked post-re-tirement in a part-time job with American Greeting Cards for 23 years, which she enjoyed very much.

Avis was very patriotic and proudly served in the Women’s Coast Guard Reserve (SPARS) during World War II from Janu-ary, 1944, until discharge on March 4, 1946. Every day was like a patriotic celebration for Avis. She placed an American fl ag on the porch post of her home every day and took the fl ag in every night pur-suant to fl ag regulations. During her service in the Coast Guard, Avis was awarded several medals including Good Conduct, American Campaign, and World War II Vic-

tory. Several years later, she qualifi ed as a charter member of the Women’s Memorial for Military Service which is located in Washington, D. C.

Avis was a faithful mem-ber of Green Street Baptist Church, where she had many friends. She was also a supporter of the American Cancer Society Walk for Life, having her-self been a 41-year cancer survivor. She was also a supporter of the Ameri-can Heart Association.

In recent years, Avis suffered heart trouble. She underwent recent heart surgery from which she was not able to recov-er despite her brave and valiant efforts and the ex-cellent care she received at High Point Regional Medical Center.

The family expresses grateful appreciation to Steve and Kay Gibson for their loving care of Avis while she was hospital-ized, and to the doctors and nurses who cared for her so diligently.

Avis had a kind and gen-erous heart and a loving, giving spirit. She was the glue that held our large family together. We will miss her dearly.

Services will be held on Thursday, October 15, 2009 at 3:00 pm with mili-tary rites, at Green Street Baptist Church which is located at 303 North Ro-tary Drive in High Point. Visitation with the family will be from 6:30 to 8:00 pm on Wednesday, Octo-ber 14th, 2009, at Cumby Funeral Home on East-chester Drive. Interment will be in Floral Garden Memorial Park in High Point.

Flowers are welcome, or donations may be made to Green Street Baptist Church, 303 North Ro-tary Drive, High Point, North Carolina 27262, or to the local chapters of the American Cancer Society Walk for Life or to the American Heart Associa-tion.

Husband’s many secrets raise wife’s suspicions

D ear Abby: I have been married near-ly a year. My hus-

band and I were together for fi ve years before that. I am his fourth wife.

What’s bothering me is he gets most of his mail delivered to his mother’s – things such as his cell phone bill, his paychecks, etc. Everything he owns is in storage in another country. He makes all his phone calls from work and never receives any at home.

I saw his credit report. He has taken out loans I know nothing about.

I love my husband with all my heart, but am I right to think a marriage isn’t supposed to be this way? I feel he has two lives. – In the Dark in Tennessee

Dear In the Dark: I don’t know how many lives your husband is living, but the answer to your question is no, a marriage is not supposed to be the way yours is. Your husband’s behavior is unusually secretive – and when people are secretive, it is usually because they have some-thing to hide.

There are many red fl ags in your letter, and because of that I’m advising you to talk to an attorney and fi nd out how loans taken out without your knowledge could affect you.

Dear Abby: My girl-

friend gets weirded out and angry when I hold my kids from a previous marriage in my lap and want her to be close to me at the same time. She

says it’s “gross and inap-propriate.”

She acts like I am try-ing to be sexual with her, but I’m not – I’m just try-ing to have her near me while I’m sitting on the couch with my children. She says I should only be affectionate with them and her separately.

Am I the one with the problem here, or what? – Dad in Lakewood, Wash.

Dear Dad: Your girlfriend may feel competitive with your children, or she may have something in her personal history that makes it diffi cult for her to differentiate between paternal affection and sexual closeness between adults. If you want con-crete answers from her, you need to discuss this subject more fully with her so she can explain why she feels the way she does, because it’s odd.

Dear Abby: Since

my daughter left home several years ago, I have

become extremely anx-ious on Sundays. In the afternoons it feels like the walls are closing in on me. I feel so depressed I have to leave the house.

If I go someplace that is open and unconfi ned, with lots of people around, I feel fi ne. When I return to my house in the early evening and dote on my pets, I get back to feeling normal.

Abby, some people have said I suffer from “empty nest syndrome.” Others say it’s “cabin fever.” Any thoughts on what I can do about this? – Phil in Phoenix

Dear Abby: If your daughter left on a Sunday, that may be the reason you become depressed and anxious on that particular day of the week. Or because you are less busy and distracted on Sundays, you become more aware of the fact you are alone. Whether you’re experiencing “empty nest syndrome” or “cabin fe-ver” is irrelevant. Discuss your feelings of depres-sion and claustrophobia with a licensed mental health professional so you can be properly diagnosed and receive help for your problem.

DEAR ABBY is written by Abi-gail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at www.Dear-Abby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

CAROLINAS


A father killed in an ap-parent murder-suicide Sunday in Mooresville worked for UNC Charlotte for more than a decade but lost his computer job Aug. 31 because of state budget cuts, according to authori-ties and public records.

Douglas Alan Thomas Sr., 57, and his wife Linda M. Thomas, also 57, were killed in a shooting spree that also left their sons in critical condition.

The sons, Douglas Alan Thomas Jr., 28, and Chris-tian Edward Thomas, 25, underwent emergency sur-gery Sunday at Carolinas Medical Center.

Public records and inter-

views with neighbors indi-cate the four family mem-bers were living in the same home where the shooting occurred just outside the Mooresville city limits at 130 Peninsula Drive.

Iredell Sheriff’s Capt. Darren Campbell said it appears one of the parents died from a self-infl icted gunshot wound and was likely responsible for the shootings, but he wouldn’t say which of the parents they suspect did the shoot-ing, adding he wants to wait until today for the ini-tial autopsy reports.

A UNCC supervisor in the department where Thomas Sr. worked said the staff was devastated by the news of his death and the shoot-

ings. “We’re all very upset,as you can imagine,” saidWendy Nichols, supervisorof the telecommunicationsdepartment.

Authorities were called tothe Thomas’ home just be-fore 8 a.m. Sunday, Iredellsheriff’s Capt. Campbellsaid. The call to 911 camefrom one of the woundedson’s mobile phones, hesaid. Deputies found theparents dead and the sonssuffering gunshot wounds.

Alina Adams, who livesnext door, said she some-times spoke with Lindabut rarely spoke to DouglasThomas. “He was almostunnaturally quiet,” shesaid. But she and otherneighbors also said hewasn’t unfriendly, either.

LINCOLNTON (AP) – A North Carolina sheriff was indicted Monday on two felony obstruction of justice charges stemming from his role in an impaired driving investigation.

Prosecutors accused Lincoln County Sheriff Tim Daugherty of order-ing the release of an im-paired driving suspect, preventing one of his deputies from adminis-tering a chemical analy-sis to process the man.

The indictment says Daugherty misrepresent-ed his involvement in the matter when a State Bureau of Investigation agent asked him about it.

ANOTHER SUCCESS STORYRoy Webster, a life time resident of High Point, NC. Roy worked for High Point Bank for 40+ years. Roy was involved in a car accident in December 2008. He was in a trauma hospital for over 3 months on a ventilator to keep him alive. Once he was well enough to leave the trauma hospital he was transferred to Triad Care & Rehabilitation. When Roy arrived at Triad he couldn’t walk. Through the occupational and physical therapy and care he received from Triad Care & Rehabilitation, Roy was able to walk out of the building by himself after spending 3 months at Triad in therapy. In Roy’s words, “the staff at Triad Care & Rehab wouldn’t give up on me and pushed me everyday to do my best”, it’s a miracle I’m alive today. Roy also said he would recommend Triad to everyone he met.

LIFE&TASTE: See what’s cooking.

BY DR. WARD ROBINSON

S wine fl u (also known as H1N1 novel infl u-enza virus) smol-

dered in Guilford County throughout the summer.

With school reopen-ing, we have witnessed dramatic increases of cases. We’ve all been told repeatedly to rub our

hands with alcohol-based

hand sanitizers, to cough into our elbows and to stay away from work or school when we’re sick.

These three maneuvers are clearly important efforts, but they really haven’t been adequate to stop the epidemic. Historically we know that the best single tool public health has to combat in-fectious disease is a safe effective vaccine.

That vaccine is fi nally arriving in Guilford County. Our fi rst amount of vaccine is small, but we trust that over the coming weeks, we will get thousands of doses. At this writing, however, I don’t know exactly how much vaccine we will get, when we will get it, or which of the two types (nasal spray or fl u shot) will come next. I can promise you, however, that the vaccine will not remain in public health refrigerators.

A vaccine only works if it is up many children’s noses or in many peoples’ arms.

Harvard Univer-sity asked people if they would take the swine fl u vaccine. Many said, “No.” The prevailing reason they gave was that people didn’t believe swine fl u was a big deal. At the same time, they were concerned that the vaccine isn’t safe.

The reality is that swine fl u is not a big deal; it’s an ordeal. It causes healthy, happy people to have high, spiking fevers, chills, severe headaches, muscle pains and fatigue. Some end up having to be hospitalized. Some die. Those affected most are school-age children from kindergarten to college and pregnant women. These folks are our loved ones and our future.

The vaccine will protect them.

As a health-care pro-vider, I’m at high risk for infl uenza, and I have received the infl uenza vaccine each year for decades. My family gets the vaccine each year. If I thought there was any valid reason to suspect this swine fl u vaccine was any different, any riskier, I would halt its distribution. When the vaccine supply improves to the point that it is readily available to most, my family will be in line for it.

DR. WARD ROBINSON is medi-cal director of the Guilford Coun-ty Department of Public Health.

Scabies spreads fromperson to person

D ear Dr. Dono-hue: We have an outbreak of scabies

in our area. Will you ex-plain how one gets them? Is it by shaking hands or from pushing a grocery cart in the supermarket? How does one get rid of them? – D.S.

Scabies fi lls people with dread and disgust because they think it comes from poor per-sonal hygiene. It doesn’t. It happens to the very rich, the very poor, the very persnickety, the somewhat hygienically laid-back, the elderly and the young – in short, to anyone. The scabies organism is a mite, a tiny insect. It’s so small that you really need a magni-fying glass to see it.

It’s the female mite that causes all the trouble. She passes from infected person to unin-fected through normal, daily person-to-person contact, like shaking hands. Off the human body, the mite lives for only 48 hours, so it’s possible but not highly probable to catch a mite from inanimate objects.

Once on the skin, the female mite burrows a tunnel beneath the skin to lay her eggs. The tun-nel looks like a white or red thread below the skin. Larvae hatch in two to three days, and in two weeks they are adults capable of produc-ing offspring.

Itching from scabies can be fi erce. It comes from the infection and from an allergic reaction to the mite and its waste

products. The fi nger webs (the skin be-tween fi n-gers), the backs of the hands, the wrists, elbows, underarms, buttocks and genita-lia are the

places where the mite most often makes its home.

Treatment with permethrin is effective. Directions have to be followed carefully. Oral ivermectin also works well. All family members should be treated. Anti-histamines and lotions like Calamine control the itch. The itch often lasts for four weeks after the mite has been eradicated. It is not a sign of a need for retreatment.

Laundering bedding and clothes in the hot cycle of the washing ma-chine and dryer gets rid of the scabies mite.

Dear Dr. Donohue: I am a 70-year-old man and have been on and off statins since my heart attack 11 years ago. Lipi-tor is one of the statins I used. When on these drugs, I get mild to mod-erate muscle pain. Short of taking Darvon Com-pound, I haven’t been able to fi nd anything that eliminates the pain. Are you aware of any medica-tions that can relieve my symptoms? – R.S.

Coenzyme Q10 might relieve statin-induced

muscle pain. Have you tried all the statins – simvastatin (Zocor), pravastatin (Crestor), fl uvastatin (Lescol) and atorvastatin (Lipitor)? Switching to a different statin can sometimes be benefi cial. Or a reductionin dose might prevent pain.

Or, how about a differ-ent cholesterol-lowering medicine? Niacin works for some. Questran and Welchol also bring down cholesterol. So do gemfi -brozil and TriCor.

I’m sure you are on a low-fat, low-choles-terol diet and doing someaerobic exercise, like brisk walking. These can reduce your cholesterol level.

Dear Dr. Donohue: I am seeking information about what happens af-ter stripping of varicose veins (some 33 years ago). The veins were removed from ankle to groin. My question is: Then what? I am 83. – T.W.

Your question is: How does blood return from my legs after the veins have been removed? Is that correct? The varicose veins that wereremoved were “super-fi cial” veins, veins that were right below the skin. You have another set of leg veins, the deep veins. They are buried in leg muscles. You can’t see them. Blood returns to the heart from the legs by way of those deep veins after the superfi cial ones are gone.

NOTABLES

NEW YORK (AP) – One of President Barack Obama’s top aides says Fox News Channel acts like a wing of the Repub-lican Party.

White House Commu-nications Director Anita Dunn told CNN’s “Reli-able Sources” on Sunday that Fox News operates “almost as either the re-search arm or the com-munications arm of the Republican Party.”

It’s another sign of the White House’s aggres-sively going after Fox.

Commentators Glenn Beck and Sean Hannity have been strong Obama critics, and Bill O’Reilly has taken tough looks at the administration.

The president avoided Fox when he visited fi ve Sunday morning news shows last month, and a recent White House blog post accused Beck of ly-ing.

Fox News executive Michael Clemente (cleh-MEN’-tay) says most viewers know the differ-ence between news and opinion shows. He says attacking the messenger doesn’t work.

King may be dead, but that doesn’t mean it’s too late to run your fi ngers through his hair.

Elvis Presley’s hair, at least a clump of hair that Presley may have lost to an Army barber when he went into the service back in 1958, is going on the auction block this Sunday at Leslie Hind-man Auctioneers in Chi-cago.

The hair is part of a col-lection of more than 200 items that belonged to or are associated with Presley. There are clothes he wore and scarves he threw to screaming fans.

LONDON (AP) – Mi-chael Jackson returned to the airwaves Monday with a new song – the fi rst from an upcoming musical doc-umentary featuring the troubled superstar.

It is the fi rst new material by Jackson to be released since his sudden death in Los Angeles on June 25.

Jackson sounded confi -dent and almost playful on “This Is It,” which features his trademark breathy vo-cal style, perfected over the years since he was a child sensation with the Jackson Five. He is backed by lush vocals from his brothers,

giving therecording anostalgic, fa-miliar feel.

The mid-tempo songwith orches-tral backingis played dur-

ing the closing sequencesof the documentary of thesame name, which opensworldwide Oct. 28 for alimited two-week run.

TAKE IT BACK---

Guilford County Depart-ment of Public Health and the Guilford County Sheriff’s Depart-ment are hold-ing a Medication Take Back event to give residents an opportu-nity to dispose of prescription and over-the-counter medications in a safe manner. The Medication Take Back will be held Friday from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. at two health department locations: 501 E. Green Drive in High Point and 1100 E. Wen-dover Ave. in Greensboro.

Sheriff BJ Barnes stated, “This is a very important pro-gram to assist our citizens in disposing of unwanted drugs. If the citizen does not need the drugs, by us destroying them we take the pos-sibility of them hitting the street for whatever reason off the table.”

Individuals who would like to take advan-tage of this event must be able to bring their items inside the health de-partment. Medi-cations should be in the original containers. Con-tainers will be destroyed along with the medica-tion to protect any confi dential information. No syringes (needles) will be accepted.

Guilford County Sheriff’s deputies will be on hand to secure all medi-cations and will oversee their safe destruction.

For more infor-mation, contact Connie Lawson, Guilford County Department of Public Health, at 845-7722.

Storm to rememberHurricane Hazel slammed the coast in October 1954, altering the lives of three High Point families forever

BY JIMMY TOMLINENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER

F ifty-fi ve years ago this week, as Hurricane Hazel churned toward the North

Carolina coast, a smaller, far less signifi cant storm brewed in High Point.

Seven-year-old Peggy Hart couldn’t believe her parents, Albert and Margaret Hart, were headed to the coast with two other High Point couples. She didn’t know about the threat Ha-zel posed – she just didn’t want her parents to go.

“I remember being really upset that Mother and Daddy were leaving town,” says Peggy Hart Shuping, now 62 and living in Greenville. “I had to be taken to Ingram’s Pharmacy for an ice cream treat to calm me down.”

Had she known what really lay in store for her parents, it would’ve taken far more than an ice cream cone to calm her down.

The story is well-known in High Point, even more than a half-century later. Three cou-ples, all of them best friends with one another, headed to Ocean Isle for a housewarming party at the new summer cottage of one of the couples. They went know-ing Hurricane Hazel was headed toward the coast, but forecasts that week – which were far less sophisticated than today’s high-tech forecasts – didn’t indicate that Ocean Isle would face the brunt of the storm.

Two couples – Frank and Vir-ginia Armfi eld and Elwood and Loui Cox – drowned in the hor-rifi c storm, each couple leaving behind four children. Only the Harts survived – and they just barely survived.

“My parents dealt with a lot of survivors’ guilt,” says Shuping’s brother, Stuart Hart, who was a

student at N.C. State University when Hazel hit.

“A number of times I would hear my father questioning, wondering why they had sur-vived,” says Hart, now 74 and living in Indianapolis, Ind. “They felt it would’ve been better if they had been taken. I was 19 and could’ve taken care of my sister, and there would’ve only been two orphans instead of eight. I really don’t think he ever got over it.”

Nor did Margaret Hart, who her children say even wrote a manuscript about the couple’s harrowing ordeal. She never published it, though, instead giv-ing copies of what she’d written to family members.

“I think one of the reasons she wrote it was to purge the demons of horror that she couldn’t let go of,” Stuart Hart says.

According to Shuping, the manuscript tells in great detail how the Harts survived the hurricane. At one point, they found themselves in high, rough

waters, clinging to a chunk of fl ooring that appeared to have broken off from the very cottage they’d been staying in.

“It’s scary to this day to read it,” Shuping says. “They kept being knocked off by the waves. At one point, I remember my mother was knocked off and somehow got trapped under the fl ooring, and she thought, ‘This is it.’ But the next thing she knew, she popped back up, right next to Daddy.”

Stuart Hart adds, “Mother told me that because the rain was driving so hard, sometimes she couldn’t even see Daddy, and he was almost right next to her. But she could hear his voice – he kept urging her on – and she said if it hadn’t been for that, she would’ve given up. They held onto that fl ooring and eventually were blown back into some trees on the mainland.”

The Harts apparently took quite a physical beating riding Hazel’s ferocious waves. Both of their children recall seeing

their parents’ battered arms and legs, covered with bruises and scratches.

“But the thing that really struck me was, they had turned almost totally gray-headed over-night,” Stuart Hart says. “That’s the very fi rst thing I noticed, and it just hit me like a ton of bricks.”

The Harts died in 1992, about 10 months apart; both were 78 years old.

And to this day, their chil-dren wonder why their parents survived, when the other two couples perished.

“I’m a religious person,” Stu-art Hart says, “and I know that our mother and daddy weren’t picked by God to survive over the others – that’s not the way things work. But I’ve always questioned why they survived and the others didn’t. I felt bad for their kids, and I almost felt kind of guilty that I had parents and they didn’t.”

Yesterday’s Puzzle SolvedTuesday, October 13, 2009CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Ashanti,

29; Jerry Rice, 47; Marie Osmond, 50; Chris Carter, 53

HAPPY BIRTHDAY: You can move mountains this year if you put your mind to it. Accomplish-ments will start at home and work their way into your personal and professional life. You’ll be freed from some of the limitations and frustrations of the past. Changes with older and younger people in your life will occur. Good times are ahead if you stop procrastinating. Your numbers are 5, 16, 23, 28, 31, 39, 42

ARIES (March 21-April 19): If a deal sounds too good, you need to do more homework. Don’t let anyone put you in a position that makes you feel awkward about saying no. Take a safe route that will ensure you can afford the things you want in the future. ★★★★★

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You won’t win if you decide to openly argue and you may even dam-age your reputation with people witnessing events as they unfold. Stubbornness will be your down-fall. Don’t try to manipulate to get your way. ★★

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): The people around you will appreciate you for your friendship and all the help and inspiration you bring with you. Be prepared to let a friend lean on you, offering reas-surance, suggestions and support. ★★★★

CANCER (June 21-July 22): A lazy attitude can lead to trouble. You may not feel much like con-tributing but, if you don’t, you will end up being left out of something that you might enjoy or an opportunity to make a little extra cash. Money is heading your way. ★★★

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Don’t trust what’s being said. Someone may not want to hurt your feelings or put up with your response should you be told the truth. You’ll have to fi nd out for yourself and make a judgment call that will change the relation-ship you have with someone. ★★★

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You can’t leave anything important up to someone else. You will be disappointed in the way others do things and will probably be denied something you want badly if your contribution doesn’t refl ect your unique style. Being responsible is half the battle. ★★★

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Take part and you will not be denied the position you want. Your abil-ity to represent others will help you gain popular-ity. The more you involve yourself in the decision-making, the more control you will have for your future. ★★★★

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Not everyone will get what you are trying to accomplish. Don’t let others’ lack of understanding unnerve you or make you jump into something that’s not right for you. You can’t count on things unfolding the way you imagine. ★★

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You have to be ready to take on anything and everything. Multitasking will be a must but the results will be spectacular. Adventure awaits you if you dive into every opportunity that comes your way. ★★★★★

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): A contract someone is offering will not be in your best inter-est. Don’t feel pressured to get involved. Emotional matters concerning an elder in your family will get blown out of proportion, leaving you responsible. ★★★

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You won’t want to budge but stubbornness can lead to error. You will discover how much easier it is to get along with others if you compromise. Being offensive will not solve the problem – it will only bring more opposition. ★★

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Nothing will be too great or diffi cult for you to solve. Your astute observations coupled with a detailed approach will bring results. Mixing business with pleasure will add to your success. ★★★

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

Here’s more practice at counting the distribution of the defenders’ hands – with a slam at stake.

West leads the three of clubs against six hearts. North’s bid of 2NT was a conventional forcing heart raise. East doubled North’s fi ve-club cue bid as a lead-director; you could have redoubled to show second-round club control but leaped to slam instead.

You take the ace of clubs and let the nine of trumps ride, losing to the king. You ruff West’s club return and cash a trump in dummy. Both defend-ers follow.

THIRD SPADETo make the slam you

must guess the queen of diamonds, hence you need a count of the East-West distribution. Ruff dummy’s last club, take the A-K of spades and ruff the jack. On the third spade, West discards a club.

Now you know West had two trumps, two spades and no more than fi ve clubs (from his lead of the three). So he had at least four diamonds, and your guess has become a sure thing. Cash the king and let the jack ride to

make your slam for sure.

DAILY QUESTIONYou hold: S K J 4 H Q 9

8 4 D A 9 3 C A 10 9. Your partner opens one dia-mond, you respond one heart and he raises to two hearts. The opponents pass. What do you say?

ANSWER: You certain-ly must bid game, but to give your partner an op-tion, bid 3NT. If he raised you with a hand such as 8 7, A K 3, K Q 10 7 6, J 6 5 or Q 5 3, J 7 6 5, K Q 10 4, K Q, he can pass. If he raised with good four-card sup-port or with a distribu-tional hand, he can insist on a suit contract.

WHO’S NEWS---

The details surrounding any Jon Beason-Julius Peppers conver-sation remained murky Monday. Neither player spoke to report-ers, just as they shied away from questions fol-lowing Carolina’s game a day earlier.

The results were clear: Shortly after Beason called him out, Peppers was dominant and the Panthers tasted victory for the fi rst time in 287 days.

“Julius Peppers, who’s been under the microscope, so to be speak, I thought was much better,” coach John Fox said at his weekly news conference.

Peppers, the four-time Pro Bowl defensive end making an NFL-high $16.7 million this season, entered Sunday’s game against Washing-ton with one sack and 10 tackles in three games, all losses.

After watching Minnesota’s Jared Allen record 4 1⁄2 sacks last Mon-day, Beason said on a local radio show that he planned to talk to Peppers about his lack of pro-duction.

Peppers was quite loud on the fi eld Sunday.

Peppers had two sacks, two tackles for a loss, three quarter-back hurries, four solo tackles and was instrumental in causing a safe-ty in Carolina’s 20-17 comeback win over the Redskins.

I f it’s Tuesday, it must be time for another hit and run about a Minnesota Vikings’ star who ranks as a strong early contend-

er for NFL Most Valuable Player honors.No, not that Viking.Let’s look at the other side of the ball for a

moment.Through fi ve games, Minnesota defensive

end Jared Allen ranks as one of the most disruptive forces in the league.

Allen owns 6 1⁄2 sacks, including 4 1⁄2 in a re-cent victory over the Packers. He has forced

three fumbles, recorded a tackle for a safety and recovered two fumbles. He scooped up one of those fumbles and rumbled 52 yards for a touchdown to highlight Sunday’s 38-10 rout of the Rams.

Sure, the Vikings dynamic duo of Brett Fa-vre and Adrian Peterson sparks an explosive offense for a 5-0 team.

But Allen is quickly emerging as the kind of defensive lineman that can single-hand-edly alter the complexion of a game.

It’s early, but if he stays healthy Allen

fi gures to remain a factor in the race for As-sociated Press NFL MVP.

It’s rare that a defensive player takes that honor. Since 1960, the only NFL MVPs who played on that side of the ball were Vikings defensive tackle Alan Page in 1971 and Gi-ants linebacker Lawrence Taylor in 1986.

That’s two legendary defenders.Don’t be surprised if Allen joins that im-

pressive duo with an MVP award.– MARK MCKINNEY

ENTERPRISE SPORTS EDITOR

HIT AND RUN---

T he halftime show ended and the cadence for the band’s exit began.

At that point, the drummer began marching to – well, the beat of a dif-ferent drummer. Off came the bass drum harness, on went the shoulder pads, and out the gate went No. 81, set to rejoin the Southwest Guilford Cowboys for the end of halftime.

“I’ve been wanting to do both for a couple of years,” said Devonte Da-vis. “I always loved playing football and band was something I loved. I decided to do both.”

Davis stands out on the sideline during football games thanks to his 6-foot-3, 160-pound frame – and long white socks pulled up to a seem-ingly impossible height. He stands out on the fi eld during the marching band’s halftime show thanks to his football uniform pants and white T-shirt. No sparkling silver sash or black hat for this busy senior.

Davis began participating in both activities at Welborn Middle School, but when he arrived at Southwest Guilford as a freshman, he elected to stick with band. He’s played all manner of percussion instruments for both the marching and concert bands – but football continued pull-ing at him.

Last spring, he told Southwest football coach Scott Schwarzer and band director Kenny Butler that he planned to play football. Schwarzer told Davis he could play and march. Butler told him he had to, no matter how rare the feat.

“It does not happen a lot around here,” said Butler, who recalled football players performing double duty at his alma mater, Durham Jordan. “I saw it in my high school band all the time. I thought that was the norm.”

While Friday nights were about to become a lot more hectic for Davis, his summer turned into an absolute blur. In August, football workouts began at 8 a.m. and ended at noon, at which point Davis headed home

for a quick lunch. Then it was back to school for band prac-tice from 1 to 5 – and oh, by the way, with an evening session that stretched to 9 some nights.

“I was here all day,” Davis recalled with a smile.

The fi rst-year football player got a handle on the

Southwest offense, but despite his impressive size, sees limited action. Schwarzer’s 3-4 squad hasn’t been able to throw much this fall, and Davis is among a backlog of senior receivers, many of whom possess more experience.

The talented drummer, though, had no trouble maintaining his routine with the band despite only practicing during class. During the week, he misses each after-school band practice for football, only making it late to Thursday’s drills after an abbreviated football walk-through.

Then comes Friday: First-period calculus, second-period weight training, third-period band ... and a much-needed idle fourth block that allows Davis to head home for a break. He arrives back at the locker room in the late afternoon for the team meal, meetings and warmups.

As Davis runs passing patterns in the pregame, the band’s “pit parents” busy themselves moving equipment along the track. Bass 3 – the middle of the fi ve-drum bass section – is delivered along with Davis’ sticks.

Davis watches the clock late in the second quarter and begins loosen-ing his shoulder pads as soon as possible. When halftime starts, he’s got two minutes to slip off the pads and jersey and slip on the drum harness.

“I grab the drum, do the show, put the pads back on, try to grab a quick

snack before the end of the half so I don’t cramp up,” Davis explained. “And I wake up at 8 or so Saturday and get ready to come here for a band competition.”

Just last week, Davis endured that very scenario, with his section winning fi rst place for its division Saturday at Ledford’s annual com-petition. Butler praised Davis’ sense of rhythm and said he’s indispens-able, able to play anything on the drum line.

“He does both really well,” Butler said. “He’s really committed to us and to football.”

And even though Davis sees limited action during the games, Schwarzer also is thrilled the senior elected to play football this year.

“He’s had a great attitude the whole time. He’s willing to do whatever is necessary for us to have success,” Schwarzer praised. “He attended every workout during the summer. He’s a phenomenal kid, the kind of kid you want to have around.”

Davis’ football teammates agree: “They joke around sometimes about how I can do band and football, but they’re cool with me doing both,” Davis said when asked about the players’ reactions.

As for his band mates? Davis could only laugh: “They joke around about it. They’re excited when we win, but I hear about it from them when we lose.”

Butler admitted to initially being nervous about the idea: How would Schwarzer react? How would the football players treat Davis?

Turns out both groups can coexist in perfect harmony.

“Me and Coach Schwarzer are both relatively new, we’re both trying to get established and we both feel the desire to bring all the elements of the football atmosphere together,” Butler said. “He said to go for it, and it was great to see that happen.”

Panthers sign Jackson to practice squad

CHARLOTTE (AP) — The Carolina Pan-thers have signed former Appalachian State receiver Dexter Jackson to the practice squad. Receiver Jason Chery was released Monday.

The speedy Jackson was taken by Tampa Bay in the second round of the 2008 draft. But he played in only seven games last sea-son with limited success as a kickoff and punt returner. He eventually lost his return job last season and was slowed by an ankle injury in preseason this year. The Buccaneers cut him on Aug. 31. Jackson could eventually get a chance as a returner in Carolina.

SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE

MIDLOTHIAN, Va. – The High Point University women’s golf team fi n-ished day one of the Rich-mond Spider Invitational in 12th place out of 15 teams with a 329 on Mon-day. Junior Leahanna Newton and sophomore Laura Reynolds fi nished tied for 22nd with 79s.

Freshman Audra Mc-Shane fi nished third amongst High Point golf-ers in a tie for 62nd after shooting 84. Freshman Kristina Wagner shot an 87 in the fi rst round to fi nish tied for 71st, one stroke ahead of fellow freshman Jessica Neese, who shot an 88 to fi nish tied for 73rd.

Longwood leads the team standings after day one with a 302, just one stroke better than Mary-land. Host Richmond is third at 313, followed by the University of Pennsyl-vania at 317 and Marshall at 318.

Longwood’s Alexa Boucher leads the indi-vidual standings head-ing into round two after shooting an even-par 72 in the fi rst round. She leads by one stroke over Maryland’s Jessica Hol-landsworth.

The Panthers return to action this morning for the second and fi nal round of the Richmond Spider Invitational at the Inde-pendence Golf Course in Midlothian, Va.

HPU women stand 12th

RALEIGH (AP) – Tom O’Brien spent a decade at Boston College, so the N.C. State coach has a pretty good idea how the Eagles will try to beat his defense.

“(BC quarterback Da-vid Shinskie) is probably licking his chops after the last two games, watching us play pass defense,” O’Brien said Monday.

Then again, it doesn’t take much more than a quick glance at the stat sheet to fi gure that out.

N.C. State’s stint as the nation’s best defense? That’s history, after Wake Forest’s Riley Skinner and Duke’s Thaddeus Lewis torched the Wolfpack (3-3, 0-2 ACC) in back-to-back weeks. They allowed a combined 820 yards pass-ing and 79 points in a pair of losses, and once again fi nd themselves looking for answers heading into Saturday’s trip to BC.

“We’ve got a lot of work to do,” O’Brien said.

Wolfpack defense still looking for answers

GREENVILLE (AP) – Don’t blame East Car-olina coach Skip Holtz for feeling optimistic about the days ahead. After all, things just have to get better after a rough week.

His Pirates have limped into the midway point of the season with injuries, fl u bugs and frustrating on-fi eld mis-takes – all of which sur-faced during a weekend loss at SMU. So Holtz gave his players some extra time off when they returned home to help them get healthy and regroup for a home game against winless Rice on Saturday.

The Pirates (3-3, 2-1 Conference USA) are coming off a 28-21 loss to the Mustangs in which SMU scored touchdowns on a blocked fi eld goal, an interception return and a 96-yard pass play.

Sacramento mayor says he was robbed

SACRAMENTO, Calif. – Mayor Kevin Johnson says he was robbed in San Francisco over the weekend as he was help-ing an elderly man.

In a blog posting, the former NBA star says he lost a suit, a pair of shoes and some personal items during his trip to attend a conference with repre-sentatives of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts.

Johnson reportedly saw a man struggling to carry bags near Union Square on Saturday evening and set aside his belongings for less than a minute to put him in a taxi.

Wildfi re-area residents prepare for rain

LOS ANGELES – South-ern California commu-nities below wildfi re-scorched mountains made preparations Mon-day for the possibility of fast-moving fl oods laden with mud and rocks as a Pacifi c storm headed for the West Coast.

Sandbags and concrete barriers called K-rail were placed on streets in suburbs northeast of Los Angeles to try to direct any debris fl ows away from homes.

“There’s really nothing else to do but wait and see what happens,” said David Wacker, a 25-year resident of La Crescenta.

Death penalty sought for 4 in Florida slayings

PENSACOLA, Fla. – Prosecutors said Monday they will seek the death penalty for four of eight people charged in the kill-ings of a Panhandle couple known for adopting chil-dren with special needs.

In a brief statement, State Attorney Bill Ed-dins said he had fi led notices to seek death for the accused ring leader, 35-year-old Leonard Patrick Gonzalez Jr.; 28-year-old Donnie Ray Stallworth; 41-year-old Wayne Thomas Coldiron; and 19-year-old Frederick Lee Thornton Jr.

Man found dead in garbage truck

BILLINGS, Mont. – Montana police say a man who may have been using a large garbage bin as shelter from the cold was apparently crushed when the bin was emptied.

The man’s body was found in a city waste truck at 6:30 a.m. Satur-day.

Billings police Sgt. Jay Berry says the victim was found “partially in a sleeping bag.”

Man held in hijacking faces NYC arraignment

NEW YORK – More than four decades after he hijacked a jetliner from Kennedy International to Cuba, Luis Armando Pena Soltren voluntarily returned to the same airport to surrender and face prosecution, authori-ties said Monday.

Pena Soltren, who was arrested Sunday after arriving on a fl ight from Havana, was expected to be arraigned today in Manhattan on a 1968 indictment. The Cuban government authorized his departure, authori-ties said Monday. Pena Soltren, a U.S. citizen, used weapons hidden in a diaper bag to hijack the Pan Am fl ight on Nov. 24, 1968, authorities said.

B U R L I N G T O N TOWNSHIP, N.J. (AP) – Protesters brought some different songs Monday to an elementa-

ry school w h e r e s tudents sang in praise of President B a r a c k O b a m a , bringing

criticism from conser-vative commentators who said children were being indoctrinated.

About 70 protesters stood on a sidewalk across the street from the B. Bernice Young School waving fl ags and homemade placards, singing “God Bless America” and “The Battle Hymn of the Re-public,” and chanting slogans such as “No in-doctrination” and “Free children, free minds.”

A small group of coun-ter-protesters watched and occasionally heck-led them.

Songs prompt protests at school

PHILADELPHIA (AP)– A tall construction lifttoppled over and strucka downtown Philadelphiaapartment building Mon-day, killing a constructionworker who fell 125 feet.

Investigators want toknow whether JamesWilson, 40, of Glassboro,N.J., was strapped intothe bucket of the boom liftas he worked on a churchroof. He may have free-fallen to the ground, theysaid.

“It doesn’t appear thathe was secured properly.We would expect that hewas tethered in,” FireCommissioner Lloyd Ay-ers said. “We’re trying tofi nd out if that’s the case.”

The vehicle apparentlytipped over when it rodeover a sidewalk grate,causing the grate to giveway, Ayers said.

Worker dies in Philly after 125-foot fall

AP

Police and fi re department offi cials gather at the scene of the accident in center city Philadelphia on Monday. Authorities say a construction worker died after falling 125 feet when a tall construction lift toppled over and struck a downtown Philadelphia apartment building.

WASHINGTON (AP) – Presi-dent Barack Obama’s stimulus plan spared tens of thousands of teachers from losing their jobs, state offi cials said Monday amid a nationwide effort to calculate the effect of Washington’s $787 billion recovery package.

State offi cials around the U.S. worked to meet a Saturday re-porting deadline as part of the most ambitious effort to calcu-late in real time the effect of a

government spending program. From 11 jobs repaving a road in Caldwell, Texas, to one job at Utah food banks, to two forensic scientist positions in North Da-kota, states were required to say exactly what became of billions in government aid.

The national data won’t be available until later this month. But based on preliminary infor-mation obtained by The Asso-ciated Press from a handful of

states, teachers appear to have benefi ted most from early spend-ing. That’s because the stimulus sent billions of dollars to help stabilize state budgets, sparing

what offi cials said would haveteacher layoffs.

In California, the stimulus wascredited with saving or creating62,000 jobs in public schools andstate universities. Utah reportedsaving about 2,600 teaching jobs.In both states, education jobsrepresented about two-thirds ofthe total stimulus job number.Missouri reported more than8,500 school jobs, Minnesotamore than 5,900.

State offi cials: Stimulus aided teachers, laborers

NEW HAVEN, Conn. (AP) – Yale Univer-sity has said its formal goodbyes to Annie Le, the 24-year-old graduate student found strangled last month behind a wall in a medical school building’s laboratory.

Classmates, profes-sors and others gath-ered on Monday at the university’s historic Battell Chapel for a memorial service that was open only to mem-bers of the Yale com-munity.

University President Richard Levin remem-bered Le as a model stu-dent.

BRIEFS---Amtrak ridership down, but near record high

WASHINGTON – Amtrak said Monday its rider-ship dropped by more than 1 million passengers during the past year, but was still the second-high-est year in the railroad’s history.

Figures released by the nation’s intercity rail operator show Amtrak carried 27.2 million passen-gers during the 12 months ending Sept. 30. Am-trak’s record was 28.7 million passengers during the previous year, a period coinciding with record high gas prices.

Among short-distance corridors that saw in-creased traffi c over the past year was Raleigh-Char-lotte Piedmont, up 3.8 percent,

Sidekick contacts, data gone, T-Mobile says NEW YORK – Owners of Sidekick phones may

have lost all the personal data they stored on the phone, including contact numbers.

The phones are made by a Microsoft Corp. sub-sidiary and sold by T-Mobile USA, which say many Sidekick owners’ information is “almost certainly”gone after a failure of servers operated by Micro-soft wiped the data out.

The companies said they hoped to update custom-ers on recovery efforts on Monday.

ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT

HIGH POINT – Financial results for the Interna-tional Home Furnishings Center were off for the fi rst nine months of its fi scal year, according to a Securities and Exchange Commission report fi led

by a furniture company with an ownership stake in the building.

The IHFC’s revenue dropped 10 percent dur-ing the fi rst three quar-ters of the current fi scal year from $32.5 million in 2008 to $29.2 million this year. Operating income

decreased 13.6 percent from $17.7 million to $15.3 million, according to the report fi led by Bassett Furniture Industries Inc.

IHFC net income fell 18 percent from $8.3 mil-lion during the fi rst three quarters of 2008 to $6.8 million during the fi rst

nine months of the cur-rent fi scal year.

Bassett reports the IH-FC’s fi nancial information because the Virginia-based furniture manufacturer has a 47 percent owner-ship stake in the largest showroom building for the High Point Market.

MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNENEWS SERVICE

WINSTON-SALEM – The creation of a Dell Inc. plant in Forsyth County put the company and Forsyth Coun-ty in the national spotlight.

Many groups named the incentives-laden deal as their national economic-de-velopment project for 2004.

But just fi ve years later, with the clock ticking on

the expected end of desktop production on Jan. 20, the plant is center stage again as 905 mostly blue-collar em-ployees prepare to fi nd new work in a tough job market.

Proponents cite the draw-backs in the Dell incentive contract as proof that the strategy works.

“If there is a bright side to this, it’s the way the con-tract was structured,” said Dave Plyler, the chairman

of the Forsyth County com-missioners. “The good news is all is not lost. The whole package has to come right back to us.”

Opponents, however, charge that Dell’s inability or unwillingness to adapt the $115 million plant to its rap-idly changing business mod-el is a prime example of why elected offi cials shouldn’t use incentives to lure corpo-rations.

One reason why local and state incentives for Dell drew support was that most analysts felt that there were few better corporate bets in 2004 than the world’s top computer-maker.

“Its sales/production mod-el was the envy of all,” said Michael Walden, an econom-ics professor at N.C. State University. “It was very logical for North Carolina to want a Dell presence.”

Dell deal returns to spotlight

NEW YORK (AP) – In-vestors waiting for earn-ings reports to flow in traded cautiously Mon-day, giving up early gains and leaving the market narrowly mixed. The Dow Jones industrials reached a new 2009 trading high, edging closer to 10,000.

Volume was light be-cause of the Columbus Day holiday. Bond mar-kets were closed and there were no economic reports.

Investors looked ahead to the fl urry of earnings due this week from key companies including Intel Corp., Johnson & Johnson, IBM Corp. and General Electric Co. Top U.S. banks, including JPMorgan Chase & Co., Goldman Sachs Group Inc., Citigroup Inc. and Bank of America Corp. will issue reports as well.

The Dow traded as high as 9,931, just 69 points away from 10,000, a level not seen in a year.

The Dow closed up 20.86, or 0.2 percent, at 9,885.80. The Standard & Poor’s 500 index rose 4.70, or 0.4 percent, to

1,076.19 while the Nas-daq composite index fell 0.14, or 0.01 percent, to 2,139.14.

Advancing stocks nar-rowly outpaced declin-ing ones on the New York Stock Exchange, where volume came to 944 million shares com-pared with 990 million at the same time Friday.

At banks, investors are hoping to see signs that consumer loan defaults, including mortgages, are starting to level off, and will be looking for any potential trouble with commercial real es-tate loans.

Overall, the market wants to see evidence that an economic re-covery is under way. Analysts said traders are generally optimis-tic about the coming reports, especially af-ter aluminum maker Alcoa Inc. – the fi rst of the 30 companies that make up the Dow to report earnings – said last week that it turned a profi t for the fi rst time in nine months.

DILBERT

BUSINESS---

NEW YORK (AP) – More than 80 percent of economists believe the recession is over and an expansion has begun, but they expect the recovery will be slow as worries over unemployment and high federal debt persist.

That consensus comes from leading forecast-ers in a survey by the National Association for Business Economics re-leased Monday.

“The survey found that the vast majority of business economists believe that the reces-sion has ended but that the economic recovery is likely to be more mod-erate than those typi-cally experienced fol-

lowing steep declines,” said NABE President-elect Lynn Reaser, chief economist at Point Loma Nazarene University.

The forecasters up-graded the economic out-look for the next several quarters, but cautioned that unemployment rates and the federal defi cit are expected to remain high through the next year. Forecasters now expect the economy, as mea-sured by gross domestic product, to advance at a 2.9 percent pace in the second half of the year, after falling for four straight quarters for the fi rst time on records dat-ing to 1947. They expect a 3 percent gain in 2010.

Survey: Economists see recovery

WASHINGTON (AP) – A top White House offi cial issued a robust defense of the Obama administra-tion’s recovery policies on Monday with a pointed critique of economic con-ditions and fi scal policies during the presidency of George W. Bush.

In a letter to House Re-publican leader John Boeh-ner, White House chief eco-nomic adviser Lawrence Summers said Obama “is

committed to not repeating the fi scal mistakes of the last eight years.”

Summer’s letter was in response to correspon-dence Obama received last week from Boeh-ner and other top House Republicans, who com-plained the current ad-ministration was having no affect on unemploy-ment and recommended a series of tax breaks to invigorate the economy.

A sign at the Citigroup Center is shown in New York in this April photograph.

WASHINGTON (AP) – Citigroup Inc. has agreed to pay a $600,000 fi ne and be censured to settle regula-tors’ charges that it failed to supervise complex stock-trading strategies aimed at reducing the bank’s poten-tial tax bill.

The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, the brokerage industry’s self-po-licing organization, on Mon-day announced the civil fi ne against the bank’s division Citigroup Global Markets Inc. New York-based Citi-group did not admit or deny FINRA’s allegations.

Citigroup failed to super-vise and control trading, and to prevent improper internal trades as well as those with some of the bank’s trading partners, FINRA said. The transac-tions in question occurred between 2000 and 2005.

One of the strategies in-volved a Citigroup unit in New York buying stock from foreign brokerage customers. After some time had elapsed, during which the taxable dividends on the stock were paid out, the stock was sold back to the customers, FINRA said.

When dividends on U.S. company shares are paid to foreign investors, they may be subject to U.S. with-holding taxes. Under the Citigroup arrangement, cer-tain foreign customers were deemed to receive a “divi-dend equivalent” in a swap, not considered to be subject to withholding taxes.

FINRA said it took into account that Citigroup dis-covered the alleged viola-tions and reported them to the regulators, and that the bank and a law fi rm it hired to make a review aided FIN-RA in its investigation.

BRIEFS---Onyx Pharma to buy Proteolix

NEW YORK – Onyx Pharmaceuticals Inc. said Monday it will buycancer drug developer Proteolix Inc. in a deal that could be worth as much as $851 million.

Onyx will pay $276 million upfront for the privately held San Fran-cisco company, and in the process it gains Proteolix’s cancer drug candidate carfi lzomib, which is being tested as a treatment for multiplemyeloma, non-Hodgkin lymphoma and solid tumors. Its drugs are de-signed to trigger cancer cell death with minimal damage to the rest of thepatient’s body.

Onyx will pay an-other $40 million next year if carfi lzomib reaches a development milestone and will pay an $535 million more if carfi lzomib is approvedin the U.S. and Europe.

Oil jumps as dollar and temps fall

NEW YORK – Oil prices rose Monday as an October chill across much of the United States sent thermome-ters plummeting along with the weakening U.S. currency.

Benchmark crude for November delivery gained $1.58 to $73.35 on the New York Mercan-tile Exchange. Heating oil rose 4.8 cents to $1.90 a gallon and natural gas jumped 13.5 cents to $4.91 per 1,000 cubic feet.
